Suddenly, Ichiro Inoue thought of something. This time, the matter in Annan was caused by the offerings. If we were willing to pay a portion of the money and actively became a vassal state of the Ming Dynasty, would this matter be over? At least there is no need for the monarch to apologize.

Ichiro Inoue took the courage to tell his proposal. He didn't know if it was the point, but he had no other way.

Although Fusang is far away from the Ming Dynasty, they have also learned that the navy of the Ming Dynasty was different from before. They often wandered around the surrounding seas. Now many of them are stationed in Goryeo. If the Koryeo Kingdom is used as a springboard to attack Fusang in full, the success rate will be as high as more than 60%.

Even if it fails, it will have no impact on the Ming Dynasty. Its land area is vast and its domestic population is large. They can afford such failures, but can it afford it for Fusang?

The domestic area is less than one-tenth of the Ming Dynasty, and the population is much worse. After this battle, the entire country may not be able to recover for a hundred years.

After listening to Ichiro Inoue's description, Hou Fangyu did not say yes or said no, but just continued to taste his own tea slowly.

The more shocked this guy was, the more anxious Ichiro Inoue next to him was. This was everything they could have taken out. If they were not willing, they would have to go to war.

He was very clear just now. This war was optional for the Ming Dynasty, but for Fusang, this was the battle to destroy the country. Even if it was defeated, it would take a lot of time to recover from the whole country.

“How much does Fuso’s annual tax revenue earn?”

Hou Fangyu did not talk about the plan just now, but asked another question. In fact, after occupying the Kingdom of Goryeo, many spies had already sneaked into Fusang secretly and saw if the person in front of him would tell the truth. If he didn't tell the truth, he would be sorry to you.

"The people of Fusang are weak, and all kinds of developments cannot keep up with the Ming Dynasty. Fortunately, the people in China are still diligent, with taxes of about 12 million taels a year, of course, they are also included in the physical goods."

Hearing this number, Hou Fangyu nodded, which was similar to what they investigated. Although the people of Fusang in this era were weak, their tax revenue was much stronger than that of the Goryeo.

The main reason is that their foreign trade is good, many European merchants will go to Fuso to trade, and the main reason is that they imitate more Chinese objects.

Although they can't keep up with the quality here, the price is much cheaper, so their tariff income is also very good.

"The things that happened back then were indeed gone, but there was no result in this matter. Our Prince is also very concerned about it. You said just now that we can give some compensation. There are also many deaths from our soldiers. If this is the case, I think you should compensate for three years of taxes."

After hearing Hou Fangyu's words, Ichiro Inoue was almost scared to sit on the ground and joked. Although there is more than 10 million taels of silver every year, there are also places to spend money everywhere in Fusang, and there are only two or three million left every year.

And this is a better time. If the time comes, the court's income is less than 10 million. If it takes three years of compensation, it will be 36 million taels of silver. How can it be done?

"Please see that the people of Fusang are weak and have many disasters. If it is three years of tax revenue, the whole country will be in a state of disagreement, so please give your hands high..."

Speaking of this, Hou Fangyu also made a request. Ichiro Inoue understood what the other party meant. He clearly wanted to drink your blood, and he drank it openly. If he didn't want to, there would naturally be an army in the court.

Ichiro Inoue will never be confused about whether to give or not, because he will definitely give this money. No matter what he negotiates this matter, he will not miss the money he should give. What he needs to do now is to give as little as possible. The little bit here is calculated in a million taels of silver.

"I also know this. It's not easy for you. If that's the case, we can break this part of the money apart. I believe you have heard about the matter in Goryeo. It's better for me to give two million taels of silver a year, and I can repay the principal in 18 years, and then add five years of interest. I wonder what you think?"

According to Hou Fangyu's calculation method, a total of 36 million taels of silver was repaid in 18 years. In addition, there is another five years of interest, that is, another 10 million taels of silver was added.

If this interest is placed in the 21st century, it would be very conscientious. No matter which bank does not dare to keep the interest so low.

But it just doesn't work in this era. There is no such high interest rate as 10 million taels of silver. Even if Ichiro Inoue agrees, he may be beheaded after returning to China.

"I can't do it, I can't do it... I'm grateful to Master Hou to see that I, Fusang, will definitely not be able to support such heavy debts. After all the various expenditures every year, the entire court will be less than 2 million taels of silver. If all of them are transported to the Ming Dynasty, if we encounter any problems in our country, we will have to wait to die."

Hou Fangyu's words were so scared that this guy kept kowtowing. This was absolutely impossible in Fusang.

Hou Fangyu also understood very well that if you want to sign a defeat agreement with others without a war, no one would want to do so. At worst, they would just fight to the death. Hou Fangyu’s ultimate request was to let them send some money.

Whether this money is millions of taels of silver or hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, we are all in vain. At the current pace of His Royal Highness, at most, it is possible that he will use troops to Fusang Kingdom in three or two years.

At that time, the agreement was invalidated, so it depends on how you bargain.

"This is not OK, that is not OK. Am I wasting my time with you here? You, a small special envoy of Fusang, dare to come and spend time here to make fun of me?"

Hou Fangyu threw his teacup directly to the ground and ran in from the door. When he heard the sound of pulling the gun, Ichiro Inoue raised his heart to his throat.

If Hou Fangyu ordered the shooting, he would have died here. Although such a thing has never happened, the current Ming Dynasty is different from before...
