"We want everyone in the world to know how shameless Daliang is!"
......
The envoys from Sinan State gritted their teeth.
Since they were about to lose Daliang as a big customer, they simply became shameless and extorted a large amount of money from Daliang to stabilize the domestic situation first.
"Haha! Whether it's sweet white glaze or blue and white porcelain, if you, Sinan Country, can produce one that's exactly the same, Daliang will compensate you with silver!"
"But if you can't make it, you're accusing Daliang. If Si Nan Kingdom doesn't compensate Daliang with 10 million taels of silver, Daliang will immediately go to war and attack Si Nan Kingdom!"
Qin Yu said with a sneer.
Although he mastered the technology of firing porcelain, Daliang's foundation was too weak. If he wanted to open a kiln and produce porcelain that could meet the daily needs of the people, he would need to invest a lot of manpower and material resources!
But if we can take over Sinan Kingdom, we can save a lot of trouble by relying on Sinan Kingdom's foundation in making porcelain.
"You! You Daliang, don't you have any sense at all?"
The envoy from Sinan Kingdom turned pale and began to regret what he had just said.
"It's you, Sinan Nation, who are being unreasonable. Daliang originally imported porcelain from you and never considered manufacturing it ourselves, yet you're trying to make huge profits from it, completely disregarding Daliang's interests!"
"I, Daliang, was forced by you to develop the method of firing porcelain, and you are trying to blackmail me. I, Daliang, demand some reasonable compensation. Is that a problem?"
Qin Yu asked back in a cold voice.
thump!
The Si Nan Kingdom's envoy immediately knelt before Emperor Liang and shouted, "Emperor Liang! I! Our Si Nan Kingdom is just a small foreign country. Our annual tax revenue is less than one million taels of silver. We can't afford to pay ten million taels of silver!"
"Since you can't afford to pay, then use the porcelain you made to pay off the debt!"
Qin Yu said coldly.
"Sure! We in Sinan are willing to use our fired porcelain to pay off the debt!"
The envoy from Sinan Kingdom said hurriedly.
"The price of each piece of porcelain is three taels of silver. Ten million taels of silver means more than three million pieces. Our Sinan Kingdom is willing to give Daliang three and a half million pieces of porcelain!"
The envoy from Sinan Kingdom added.
"Haha! You guys are dreaming! You're using porcelain to pay off your debts, and you're even trying to triple the price!"
Qin Yu sneered.
In the porcelain trade between Sinan Kingdom and Daliang, each piece of porcelain, regardless of size, was worth one or two taels of silver. Now it is an indemnity, and they actually want to pay three times the price. It is simply wishful thinking.
"Then! Then one tael of silver each. We'll discuss it with His Majesty when we get back!"
One person said hurriedly.
"The porcelain produced in Sinan Country is all crudely made and extremely cheap. A porcelain bowl costs less than three cents, and it can only pay off a debt with ten cents at most!"
"Large pieces of porcelain can be worth more, but the specific price will depend on the officials I inspect seeing the porcelain!"
Qin Yu said coldly.
what!
Ten cents!
Upon hearing the price, the envoys from Sinan State widened their eyes in shock. The price difference was too big!
Moreover, at this price, they would have to provide Daliang with 10 million pieces of porcelain every year for a hundred years!
