"this……"
"Don't you know the rules? If you're asking someone for a favor, you should act like one. Get lost, or don't blame me for being rude."
Whether it's Ling Yunzhi or Chen Feilong.
Whether it was Li Yuanba or Xiang Yu, they were both capable of taking the lives of these people.
Bonaparte slunk away.
"If you want to see me again, you'll have to show some sincerity. Otherwise, it's not impossible for me to wipe you out." Jiang Tian snorted coldly and continued to stand by the window with his men, admiring the scenery.
Bonaparte and his men had no choice but to slink away.
“Your Grace, there’s no need for us to swallow our anger like this.” Harvey immediately lost his composure.
Bonaparte glared at him fiercely: "You don't know anything! Our 200,000-strong army has been completely wiped out. I just went outside the city to take a look, and all 200,000 soldiers are gone."
What angered me most was that all 200,000 muskets and over 2,000 cannons were gone.
"Our empire has lost far more than just 200,000 people."
Harvey and his men were furious upon hearing this and began to curse. 200,000 muskets and over 2,000 artillery pieces—that was almost half of their country's military strength.
"You all think about it, what kind of gift does Jiang Tian hope to receive?" Bonaparte's question left the group completely bewildered.
How would they know?
The group of people sheepishly returned to their lodgings in the carriage.
"Your Grace, Jiang Tian is surrounded by beautiful women. I think he is a lecherous man."
"I think he would really like it if I gave him a beautiful woman."
Bonaparte: "Who should we send it to? There are no women in our St. Petersburg."
Besides, Catherine has already taken the initiative to pursue him. Who among us, besides the Queen, possesses Catherine's beauty?
Bonaparte's words left the other two speechless.
"This guy is too ruthless. Even though Catherine offered herself up, he still wiped out hundreds of thousands of enemy troops."
Bonaparte sighed deeply: "I also arrived at the Russian battlefield yesterday, and all 700,000 of their troops were wiped out."
In addition, all their guns and cannons were taken away.
Victor looked shocked: "This means that the barbaric cavalry took away millions of muskets and cannons, as well as a large amount of gunpowder?"
Bonaparte nodded: "They took away so many muskets and cannons, and these cavalrymen are already exceptionally powerful. They can easily organize their forces and suppress an army of millions."
“Your Grace, if they sweep through our territory, we have no chance against these barbarians.”
Upon hearing this, several people at the scene couldn't help but shiver.
“Your Grace, I think that although Jiang Tian has some ability, he seems to be someone who has never seen the world.”
“Let’s give him some glass beads and tell him they are priceless gems.”
Maybe this way we can get away with it.
Bonaparte glanced at the two men.
"Would this glass bead meet Jiang Tian's approval?"
How will you know if you don't try?
Bonaparte nodded.
...
the next day.
The top floor of the World Society.
Jiang Tian had just gotten up.
The maid outside the door whispered, "Those foreign devils came again yesterday, Lord Jiang."
Jiang Tian yawned and sat up.
Did they bring anything with them this time?
"They brought over a box filled with gems. The gems looked crystal clear and were very beautiful. They were probably worth a fortune."
Jiang Tian stood up and walked out.
Bonaparte and his two companions each carried a wooden box.
They knelt on one knee and raised the wooden boxes in their hands high.
"Lord Jiang Tian, this is just a small token of our appreciation. We hope you will accept it."
Jiang Tian walked over, opened the box, and was immediately stunned.
This room is full of glass spheres.
These glass spheres gleamed in the sunlight.
Someone who has never seen the world would be greatly shocked after seeing this.
As someone who traveled from the 21st century, Jiang Tian naturally understood what this thing was.
"What is this thing? It looks so crystal clear and so dazzling in the sunlight?" Jiang Tian pretended to be shocked. He grabbed a handful of glass marbles and held them up to the sunlight.
Under the sunlight, these colorful glass spheres do indeed emit a dazzling light, making them quite beautiful.
When Bonaparte and the other two heard Jiang Tian say this, a smile immediately appeared on their lips.
"My lord, you may not know this, but we went through countless hardships and spent a great deal of gold and silver to obtain these gems."
"What is the value of these gems?" Jiang Tian asked Bonaparte. "I have never seen such beautiful gems before."
Bonaparte became more and more excited as he spoke, and his ramblings became increasingly outrageous.
"Lord Jiang Tian, to be honest, these gems are worth millions of taels of gold."
"These are the old prices. If you were to buy these gems now, the price would probably be several times higher."
Harvey and Victor quickly echoed his sentiments.
Just then, Chen Yuanyuan and Ji Yanran walked over.
Ji Yanran grabbed a handful of glass beads and examined them against the sunlight.
“Ji Yanran, look at these priceless gems,” Jiang Tian smiled slightly. “It is said that these gems were worth five million taels of gold many years ago. I will sell these gems to your Tianxia Society. How much are you willing to pay?”
Upon hearing Jiang Tian's words, Bonaparte was immediately startled.
This is the World Society.
The Tianxia Society's business spans the entire world.
The members of the World Society are naturally well-informed and knowledgeable.
Ji Yanran picked up the handful of gems, looked at them, and then threw them back into the plate.
"My lord, forgive my bluntness, but with so many glass beads, I don't even want to give you an ounce of gold."
“This is a gemstone, not some glass bead,” Jiang Tian smiled slightly.
"Yes, young lady, you must have misjudged them. These gems were extremely hard to come by. We spent a lot of time on these few boxes of gems."
Even now, Bonaparte and his men are still lying.
"I'll say it this way, see if it works for you." Jiang Tian glanced at the three people kneeling in front of him.
"These gems are worth 6 million taels of gold?"
Bonaparte and his men nodded repeatedly.
“Your Excellency has good taste. I am very pleased that you recognize the value of these gems.”
"Your Excellency is truly remarkable, but the price you're offering for six million taels of gold is still too low."
"If I'm not mistaken, these gems are now worth at least eight million taels of gold."
Jiang Tian nodded: "Alright, I'll give you eight million taels of gold."
