"My lord, you're not just trying to fool me, are you?" Ji Yanran offered another kiss.
"Are you people from the World Society capable? I'll tell you about the places where there are large silver mines."
As someone who traveled from the 21st century.
Jiang Tian knew that Japan's total silver reserves accounted for one-quarter of the world's total.
If all these silver mines were mined, they would amount to tens of millions of tons, and this is only silver mines discovered in the 21st century.
And then there are those that haven't been detected.
In the 18th century, European powers set foot on the island of Japan.
To their surprise, they discovered that the island had no oil and no coal.
However, Japan has many gold and silver mines, as well as many sulfur mines.
European powers referred to the islands of Japan as the Treasure Island.
Japan not only has astonishing silver reserves, but also ranks among the world's top countries in gold and sulfur reserves.
"You flatter me, sir." Ji Yanran released his arm, stood up, walked to the side, and poured Jiang Tian a cup of tea.
"Our World Society is full of talented people. As long as there is a gold mine or a silver mine, we will definitely be able to detect it."
"Tell your people to search thoroughly, even if they have to dig three feet into the ground, they have to find all these gold and silver mines." Jiang Tian reached out and put his arm around Ji Yanran's slender waist.
The World Society wields immense power.
Moreover, he is extremely good at business.
Jiang Tian has already had his elite Imperial Guards thoroughly investigate the Tianxia Society.
Ji Yanran, this young girl, now holds absolute power in the world.
Winning over this young girl is equivalent to winning over the entire World Society.
"Bring me the map, and I'll mark it in more detail so those idiots from your Tianxia Society can find it properly."
Upon hearing this, Ji Yanran was overjoyed. The young girl bent down and gently kissed Jiang Tian's forehead.
Soon, the little girl retrieved the map.
Jiang Tian drew a large circle in the southeastern part of Gangdong County.
"There are 216 silver mines in this area. If your Tianxia Society can't find any silver mines in more than 200 places, you might as well close down."
The little girl nodded excitedly when she saw the big circle.
"Rest assured, my lord, once my Tianxia Society finds these silver mines, I will be eternally grateful."
How can we express our gratitude?
"But I will do whatever it takes to express my gratitude, and I will do my best to satisfy you."
"That's more like it."
Ji Yanran stood up and carefully put the map away.
"Does the master miss that Rakshasa woman and the Black Pearl?"
"Don't worry, sir. I've already sent Natalia and Yelia. You'll be able to see these two girls in the next few days."
…………
The Imperial Palace in Kyoto, Japan.
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!" A eunuch rushed up to the Emperor.
Since learning that the entire army of 500,000 had been annihilated within the territory of the Great Xia Dynasty, the Great Lord has not received any good news recently.
The owner of the large animal is now very haggard.
"Baka yarou, why are you in such a hurry? What's wrong?"
"Your Majesty, a battle report from the front lines." The eunuch respectfully delivered the urgent battle report from the front lines, sent from 800 li away, to the lord.
"I don't want to see. Just tell me what happened."
The eunuch cautiously took the letter out of the bamboo tube.
"Your Majesty, Osaka Castle has been captured, and our soldiers have suffered heavy losses."
"Where are those two bastards, Tokugawa Ieyasu and Toyotomi Hideyoshi? They have nearly 200,000 troops combined. How many of them could the enemy possibly land? Do you think those two can't even stop the Xia people?"
Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu were always highly regarded by the lord.
"Your Majesty, Tokugawa Ieyasu has been captured, and Toyotomi Hideyoshi's whereabouts are unknown. The people of Daxia are making every effort to search for Toyotomi Hideyoshi."
Upon hearing this, the great owner felt his vision go black.
The guy wobbled and fell backward.
The Japanese Empress and several imperial concubines rushed over and held the lord tightly in their arms.
"Your Majesty, please don't do anything rash."
"As the saying goes, victory and defeat are common occurrences in war. Although Toyotomi Hideyoshi and Tokugawa Ieyasu were defeated, it does not mean that we Japanese are no match for them."
Empress Michiko Takahashi: "Your Majesty, we still have Oda Nobunaga, we still have Takeda Nobuhiro, we still have Honda Tadakatsu..."
Empress Suzuki Keiko: "Your Majesty the Emperor must not be saddened. A temporary victory or defeat does not prove anything."
The great owner slowly stood up.
The guy's vision went black and he fell to the ground again.
The eunuchs and palace maids were in a flurry of activity.
The Empress and imperial concubines were in complete chaos.
They massaged shoulders, patted backs, and pinched philtrum.
After about half an incense stick's time, the big guy slowly recovered.
"We have suffered too many losses by sending Nobuhiro Takeda. This must never happen again."
"Hi..."
That afternoon.
More than a dozen Japanese military commanders gathered in the imperial palace.
"Gentlemen, the battle report from the front lines indicates that Tokugawa Ieyasu has been captured. Toyotomi Hideyoshi's fate is unknown, and these heroic cavalrymen are advancing triumphantly towards us."
"What do you all think we should do?"
The scene remained silent.
No one expected that Tokugawa Ieyasu and Toyotomi Hideyoshi, on whom they had placed so much hope, would be defeated so quickly.
"Your Majesty, is this information accurate?"
"Our cavalry is invincible and undefeated, how could they have suffered such a crushing defeat?"
"Your Majesty, Tokugawa Ieyasu is exceptionally capable. The fortress he built on the southern coast is impregnable."
How could the soldiers of Great Xia possibly capture the fortress so easily?
"Your Majesty, Toyotomi Hideyoshi's military strategy is unparalleled; throughout the entire Eastern Japan, no one can surpass him."
I don't believe it's true that Toyotomi Hideyoshi was defeated and forced to flee in a sorry state.
None of the Japanese military commanders present believed what the Ōmono-no-shu said.
They all had an inexplicable self-confidence.
"This is the battle report from the front lines. Open your eyes and take a look. How could this battle report from the front lines be fake?" The big boss threw the battle report in front of everyone.
Silence fell over the room once again.
"Takeda Nobuhiro, tell me how we should deal with what's to come. I have only one thought in my mind right now: drive all these Xia traitors into the sea."
Takeda Nobuhiro: "Your Majesty, if this battle report is true, this matter is quite serious."
Based on our assessment of the fighting capabilities of the Great Xia Dynasty's army, they are no match for us at all.
The other side actually managed to capture Tokugawa Ieyasu and force Toyotomi Hideyoshi to flee in a sorry state.
Now, it's estimated that the Great Xia Dynasty's army will also suffer heavy losses.
We should take advantage of their heavy losses and strike them hard now.
