<h4>Chapter 408: It’s finally here_1</h4>
“Since you guys don’t dare to take it, why don’t you let me take it into the team training and bring all of you to the front line to fight the sun nation? I’ll bear the responsibility.” Tang Wen said.
“The strength of this group of people is extraordinary. Don’t you want to rebel?” Chu Xiangang looked at Tang Wen with a fake smile.
“Your Highness, you can’t joke like this. I’m timid and will be scared to death.” Tang Wen quickly said.
“Your Highness, our ocean Saint is in need of silver. If they didn’t think of something soon, the soldiers would have to go to war on an empty stomach.
At that time, if they still couldn’t get the silver, the soldiers would be in low spirits, and they would probably be defeated.
At that time, I’m afraid it will be dangerous for the eastern coast of great Chu. ” Chu Guang said.
“If you want it, you might as well buy the people and thend. However, they were not cheap. Don’t even think that I’ll let you get away with it. ” Chu Xiangang said.
“Your Highness, this is a good idea. Not only will we be able to solve our problems, but the Imperial court will also be able to receive a batch of silver. ” Chu Guang said.
“Your Highness, just state your price.” Tang Wen asked.
“Thirty thousand people, plusnd, property, and so on. I’ll even give you the copper mine in Heyang. Thirty million taels.” Chu Xiangang said.
“Wangye, who cane up with this amount? probably only the Shen family.” Chu Guang shook his head.
“This King has no choice. If it’s too cheap, the ministers might say that I pocketed it behind my back.” Chu Xiangang waved his hand.
“Yes! However, I can only give you 15 million taels. How about we use the ck-clothed cannon to pay for the rest?” Tang Wen said.
“Where did you get so many artillery support?” Chu Xiangang was stunned.
“I’ve been making preparations since the start of the coastal war, so I’ve just purchased a batch from the West.
That’s why the artillery support that my Tang family originally had on the ind was withdrawn.
Therefore, it was a second-hand one, not a new one.
However, even so, it’s still a little stronger than the ones produced by the Imperial court. ” Tang Wen said.
“I know about this. The Tang family’s Flint can reach 100 meters, but the one in great Chu can only reach 30 meters.
The Tang family’s cannon can shoot ten miles, but our great Chu’s can only shoot five or six miles.
If we use it to pay off the debt, we won’t suffer a loss. We can use it to equip the ck cavalry. ” Chu Guang replied.
“Could it be that the ones you brought back from the West can fight even further?” Chu Xiangang asked curiously.
“It’s a little further, but my Tang family doesn’t have many horses and only about 30 warships, so we don’t have a lot of equipment. So, we can still afford it.” Tang Wen said.
“How much does a Western cannon cost? Where’s the fire Gu?” Chu Xiangang asked.
“You get what you pay for. A cannon is two thousand taels, and a il is six hundred taels.” Tang Wen said.
“How much artillery fire do you need to pay for 15 million taels of silver?” Chu Xiangang wasn’t stupid. He had calcted everything clearly.
“There are probably over a thousand cannons and forty to fifty thousand muskets that have been withdrawn. Of course, these are not enough to cover the debt.
However, I still have more than 1000 tents. I can use the rest of the tents to provide a toilet for each Yamen.
We’ll install electric lights and sr energy in the royal residence. ” Tang Wen said.
“Bathroom? lights? what are those?” Chu Xiangang asked.
“Wangye, the bathroom is a toilet, and the electric light is much better than the candle. There is also an electric rice cooker and induction stove. It’s too easy to use. If His Highness had used it before, he would definitely not be willing to use anything else. ” Chu Guangughed.
“You can even pay for thetrine. Don’t lie to me, those won’t do.” Chu Xiangang snorted.
“Your Highness, if you don’t believe me, you can go to the public house to take a look. If you are not satisfied with it, you don’t have to pay for it.” Tang Wen said.
“Chu Guang, you’ve already used it, haven’t you?” Chu Xiangang asked.
“Hehe, my son brought it back and just used it. It’s so good. It’s a pity that we still have to buy some toilets. Otherwise, there won’t be enough for the family and they’ll line up to go to the toilet every day. ” Chu Guangughed drily.
“This King would like to see what it is. Let’s go to your residence.” Chu Xiangang’s interest was also piqued, and the few of them rode their horses straight to the public house.
When the light came on, Chu Xianggang jumped in shock.”Isn’t this a night-luminescent Pearl?”
“Your Highness, are night-luminescent pearls this bright?
This is called an electric light. You see, once you pull this switch, it will light up. Once you press it, it will turn off. It’s really good.
Wangye, I’ll take you to my bedroom’s separate luxury bathroom to have a look. ” Chu Guang said smugly as he led Chu Xian to the second floor.
“Your Highness, this is called a toilet. You can shit and pee by sitting on it. Also, this is a luxurious bathtub. Once the water is filled, it will be flushed out. And this shower head, and ...”
After experiencing it, Chu Xiangang couldn’t help but praise,”damn it, Westerners really know how to enjoy.
Good stuff, good stuff. Tang Wen, I promise you.
This King will give you a month to install everything in this King’s residence, otherwise, this King will hold you responsible. ”
“Hehe, I bought the Blue Moon Lake to build a building. When the timees, I’ll sell these things. I’ve already opened a shopping center in Jiang Zhou. If your Highness needs anything in the future, you can just send someone to buy them. ” Tang Wenughed drily.
“Let’s go. I’ll take you to the Heyang copper mine to see your Tang family’s servants. ” Chu Xian was in a good mood, and the few of them took the Eagle back to Heyang.
Tang Wen discovered that the scale of the Heyang copper mine wasn’t small.
However, they had to mine by hand. Although these guys were not weak, humans could not bepared to machines.
