    After hearing Gongsun Han's flattery, Yang Zilu didn't take it seriously. She just smiled at Gongsun Han formally and said nothing.  Yang Zilu stared at Gongsun Han intently. Judging from Gongsun Han's reaction, Yang Zilu knew that she had suddenly revealed part of Gongsun Han's purpose.  Gongsun Han must have been caught off guard at this moment. No matter what he was saying now, he was delaying himself. He must be reorganizing the language in his heart.

    Gongsun Han is also a smart man. After a while, he saw that Yang Zilu was cooperating with him. He remained silent and waited patiently for your free invitation.  Gongsun knew that when facing a smart person like Yang Zilu, it would be better to be honest instead of beating around the bush, otherwise I'm afraid it would end up wasting both parties' lives.

    Having figured it out, Gongsun Sha went straight to the point: "The foreign minister is from the Duke's clan and is the younger brother (cousin) of Duke Jin!"  "

    Yang Zilu knew as soon as he heard that Gongsun Han was from the Jin side, so Gongsun Han's purpose of coming was clear.  I know I know, but on the surface Yang Zilu still looked helpless and said: "I think I already understand the purpose of Dr. Gongsun's visit!"  However, regarding the matter of sending troops to the Jin Kingdom, although I also want to send troops, I am afraid I am powerless!  The energy of Han State is now being held back by Zheng State!  "

    Your sister!  Gongsun Han couldn't help but cursed in his heart. Now everyone in the world knows that Han sent troops this time entirely to let the allies contribute.  The Han State only sent out a total of 10,000 troops. With such a small number of troops, how could it be compared to the energy of the Han State?

    Gongsun Han secretly took a deep breath, suppressed the urge in his heart to spray saliva on Yang Zilu's face, showed a smile that he thought was full of affinity, and said: "The foreign ministers and my family master also understand the difficulties of the Han Hou. We just hope that the Han Hou  If you can stand up and support my family leader!  "

    ''oh!  "Yang Zilu responded noncommittally.

    But Gongsun Han knew that Yang Zilu was not considering whether to help the king of Jin.  Instead, I'm asking Gongsun Han for a price. Let's see what kind of price you give, and what kind of answer I will give.

    Gongsun Han was silent for a long time. Finally, Gongsun Han gave a price he thought was appropriate and said:

    ''As long as the Marquis of Han agrees, my master is willing to give 1.5 million yuan to the Marquis of Han!  Help the Marquis of Han in his crusade against the unkind and unjust State of Zheng!  "

    Gongsun Han¡¯s words have two meanings. One is naturally 1.5 million yuan, and the second is to fund Yang Zilu¡¯s attack on Zheng.  This was not only used to cover up the fact that the Jin State gave the Han State 1.5 million yuan, but he also hinted to Yang Zilu that the Jin State would support the Han State to destroy the Zheng State.  No!  To be precise, the king and the prince of Jin State would support Yang Zilu in destroying Zheng State.

    Yang Zilu thought for a while, shook his head and said: ''Not enough!  "

    Gongsun Han was furious. I just asked you to stand up and say a word. This price still can't satisfy you!  Gongsun Han almost wanted to walk away, but he still had to suppress the anger in his heart.  It's really because Yang Zilu's words are too important, and Yang Zilu's support is not just in name.

    It is even more of an insurance policy. If Jin goes out of business and expels the four ministers, Jin will definitely be very weak.  At this time, Yang Zilu was nearby with an army of 110,000.  Anyone who lets him go will be afraid that Yang Zilu will send his troops north.  Otherwise, Duke Chu of Jin would not have been so generous and gave Yang Zilu 1.5 million yuan.  According to the current market price of 30 yuan per stone to buy grain, this 1.5 million yuan is enough to buy 50,000 stone of grain.

    A soldier consumes two stones of food a month during wartime. According to this conversion, it is enough for an army of 25,000 for a month.  If fed to an army of 110,000 people, it would be enough to last for about seven days.

    Yang Zilu stretched out two fingers, shook them and said: "One hundred thousand stones of grain, now grain!"  I don¡¯t want money!  "

    Yang Zilu is not stupid. Although 1.5 million yuan can nominally buy 50,000 shi of grain, if so much money is really put on the market all at once, it will only cause the price of grain to rise. At that time, it can buy 40,000 shi.  Fifteen thousand shi of grain would be enough.  It was even mentioned that if enough money to buy 100,000 shi of grain was put on the market, and the purchase would take time and negotiate the price, it would be a lot of trouble. Yang Zilu didn't want to be in such trouble.

    Hearing this, Gongsun Han immediately frowned. After thinking for a long time, he shook his head and said, "Marquis of Han, it's really hard for foreign ministers to obey your orders!"  Now my master is preparing to go to war with the Four Ministers. There is really no way to come up with so much food at once!  How about this!  How about 50,000 yuan in cash?  "

    ''One hundred thousand ready grains!  However, I can allow you to pay separately. The first payment is 50,000 shi of food, and then every month you pay 10,000 shi of food. All the food must be paid within half a year!  Don't say that I am mean, I know that you are going to war and are suffering every day!  But you also have to understand that if I offer my support, I can contain a certain number of the private soldiers of the Four Ministers!  Even a single person has to take considerable risks!  "If Yang Zilu pointed out something, he wrote in the void.The word "zhi" comes out.  The territory of the State of Zheng is close to the Zhi family's seal. Yang Zilu's words are equivalent to reminding Gongsun Han, don't treat me as a fool. I am not just a simple talker, but also have many interests.

    Gongsun Han's face turned red and blue, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Marquis of Han, seventy thousand dan, pay in installments!"  The first batch of thirty thousand stones!  Ten thousand stones a month from now on!  If the Marquis of Han does not agree, the foreign ministers will have no choice!  "

    Yang Zilu thought for a while and said: "Seventy thousand stones, pay immediately!"  In addition to my vocal support for the Jin government, I sent another 10,000 troops north to the Zheng border with great fanfare!  Zhishi will definitely misunderstand that this is the vanguard of the Han Kingdom. Even if he suspects that I am bluffing, there is no way Zhishi can take this risk. In the end, he will definitely leave at least 50,000 troops to defend against me!  Although it is said that Zhiyao will definitely discover the conspiracy of the people over time, but as long as the people cover it up well, they will definitely be able to hold off the Zhi family's army for a month!  And even if Zhiyao finds out that there are 10,000 troops behind him, can he feel at ease?  Leave at least 10,000 troops behind to defend!  I believe that Dr. Gongsun, you should understand that I have not made you suffer!  "

    Your sister, didn¡¯t you suffer?  Then you might as well not ask for any conditions!  Then I really won¡¯t suffer!  Gongsun Han cursed in his heart, but he had to admit that this was probably the best outcome at the moment.  Gongsun Han gritted his teeth, nodded and said, "Okay!"  I just don¡¯t know when the Marquis of Han will publicly support my family leader?  When else will we send troops?  "

    ¡®¡®Whenever you send me 40,000 shi of food, I will openly support Duke Jin!  Seventy thousand shi of food has arrived!  If you are alone, send troops!  Yang Zilu said.

    Hearing this, Gongsun Han immediately disagreed and said: "Hanghou, although your conditions are very good, you must know that soldiers need to be quick. Once the war breaks out, my master is in urgent need of support!"  The foreign minister thought it might as well be like this!  After the 40,000 shi of grain arrived, the Marquis of Han openly supported my master and at the same time sent troops to go north!  The Jin Kingdom will definitely pay the Marquis of Han for the subsequent grain!  After all, I still expect the Marquis of Han to delay Zhi¡¯s 50,000-strong army for a month!  "

    Yang Zilu also felt that Gongsun Han was right. The most important thing was that the troops he had now were enough to make the king of Jin dare not default on his debt.  Even if he really defaults on his debt, Yang Zilu can still ask the winner for the remaining balance after the civil war in Jin is over.

    Even the victor¡¯s four ministers.  Because at that time, Jin State had gone through civil strife and became very weak.  At this time, the Four Qings would never offend Yang Zilu for tens of thousands of stones of grain. At most, they would negotiate with Yang Zilu, hoping to reduce the amount of grain given to Yang Zilu. Refuse?  Yang Zilu gave them courage, and the Four Qings did not dare not give Yang Zilu food.

    Next, Yang Zilu formed a blood alliance with Gongsun Han, but neither party had any plans to make a big splash, so everything was kept simple.  However, when the contract was signed, it was originally signed in two copies, but Yang Zilu requested three copies.

    ''Why three copies?  " Regarding Yang Zilu's sudden change of mind midway, Gongsun Han was frightened and felt that Yang Zilu had evil intentions.

    Yang Zilu shrugged and said: "Anyway, it won't damage the interests of your Jin country!"  "

    ??¡®¡®Hanghou, foreign ministers should treat villains first and then gentlemen. You suddenly made this request, which really makes foreign ministers have to doubt the intentions of Hanhou!  "Gongsun Han looked at Yang Zilu with a wary expression, trying to find even the slightest clue on Yang Zilu's face.

    It¡¯s a pity that Yang Zilu¡¯s face was expressionless, and Gongsun Han couldn¡¯t find a trace of emotion on Yang Zilu¡¯s face.

    On the contrary, Yang Zilu, after hearing Gongsun Han's words, seemed to have no thought at all, and immediately nodded and said: "Very good, you mean not to sign, right?"  Then I'll go find the Four Qings. I think they will be happy to cooperate with me!  "

    Gongsun Han immediately broke into a cold sweat and secretly cried out in his heart!  Why didn't I think of this?  Nowadays, people are fighting for their lives, and others are fighting for their own good. How sad!

    ''I sign!  I sign!  "Gongsun Han said very aggrieved. Not only was he aggrieved, but he was also ashamed. He was so careless before, but now he is like a dog trying to please Yang Zilu.

    ''Add a thousand stones of food!  "Yang Zilu said expressionlessly. After saying that, he glanced at Gongsun He, whose face turned green and white. Yang Zilu added: "This is the price you pay for being disrespectful! Next time, you have to be smarter!"

    ''OK!  "Gongsun Han gritted his teeth and nodded. "However, please ask the Marquis of Han for permission not to write this thousand shi of grain in the alliance book. The foreign ministers will pay for this thousand shi by themselves. As for the grain meeting and the first batch of delivery  Send the food that comes over to the Hanhou military camp together!"

    ''good!  "Yang Zilu responded readily. He was not afraid that Gongsun Han would default on his debt.

    The conditions have been discussed, and Gongsun Han was very happy at the moment and signed the agreement.

    His name was sealed with the seal given by Duke Chu of Jin.  This seal is a private seal of the Jin Dynasty.?, can symbolize the Duke of Jin, and therefore this mission was handed over to Gongsun Han only when the Duke of Jin handed it over.

    Seeing that the last piece of the alliance was printed, Yang Zilu nodded with satisfaction, took the quill, and signed her name in a flash.  He immediately put away the two copies of the alliance, leaving only one copy for Gongsun Han.
