I Am The Landlord In Another World

Chapter 208: Chapter 213 – Face full of red

“Of course, but iron is too expensive. How much silver would an iron – shelled ship bigger than this cost? I’m afraid one would cost at least four million taels. Even the Imperial court can’t afford it.” Wang haiting shook his head. “I can bring them in from the West. The reason why I’m so confident in going to war is because we have this kind of ironclad ship. It’s our unique weapon.” Tang Wen said. “If we can equip ourselves with ironclad ships that are even bigger than this, in addition to the long – range and powerful cannons, we will have a much greater chance of success.” Ximen taigao nodded his head. “Don’t worry, our ship is already at sea. Even if the Linghai military Yamen wants to recruit my men, it will still take some time. The battle in the East had just begun, and it was not that serious. What we need to do now is to train the soldiers, especially on the ships, to strengthen our naval combat ability. In order to form a naval battle, the land battle was one. For example, they could practice disembarkation battles and ship battles. By the way, tell the master of the speedboat to pick a group of boatmen to come over and learn how to drive an ironclad boat. ” Tang Wen said. “We’ve been training for this for a long time. We’ve already trained dozens of boatmen who can drive iron – shelled boats.” Luo Yiwu said. “From now on, call me Captain and not boatman. The first and second officer were to assist in steering the ship ... The captain was the captain of the ship, and he was in charge of all the crew members on the ship. Our ship is not small, and we need more than a dozen people to make it move normally. Oh, right, get a group of people from Zhan dongwen’s maintenance team to repair the ship. That’s because ships often break down, and we need professionals to repair them. ” Tang Wen said. In fact, Tang Wen’s plan was to return to Yunhai city and order a batch of merchant ships similar to the coastal Guard ships. The black coat cannon would be a cannon boat. Of course, the necessary firing holes had to be installed in place. It was used for war and for transporting goods. Of course, the tonnage would not be very large. There were two to three hundred people on the ship, and the maximum drainage capacity was about seven to eight hundred tons. At that time, each ship would be equipped with a few black – robed cannons and 200 flagpoles, and it would be an ancient warship. “Jiang Xuan greets Lord Jue!” As soon as he saw Tang Wen, Jiang Xuan rushed out of the living room to the door to welcome him. He even bowed slightly when he greeted them, which made the cloud ocean clan nervous. After all, this guy was the Deputy Governor of Linghai province. He was an influential person in the provincial capital and a secondary rank 3 official. Wang haiting couldn’t help but look at Ximen taigao in shock, and Ximen taigao also looked at Wang haiting in shock. Jiang Xuan’s bow had completely crushed the pride and dignity of the cloud ocean sect elders. Of course, Tang Wen also felt it. He glanced at the human figurines above their heads and found that they were all bending down toward him. The slope was 10 degrees, and they were almost touching the ground. “Lord Jiang’s face is red, and his glabella is shining. Something good must have happened.” Tang Wen said with a smile. “It’s all thanks to you, Lord Jue. ” Jiang Xuan didn’t deny it and was rather proud. “My master has been promoted to the commander of the Linghai City.” The Jiang residence’s butler, Wei Zhao, said with a smile. “Congratulations, congratulations.” Tang Wen cupped his hands and congratulated him. They pulled each other into the living room. “The supplies that Lord Jue gave us on this trip to the front lines have been very useful. They especially liked wine and weapons. I’ve finished all the wine I bought from Lord Jue, so I’ve also made a lot of military achievements. When I come back, I’ll use this to directly upgrade. ” Jiang Xuan said with a sigh. “If Lord Jiang needs it, just say the word.” Tang Wen said. “Of course we have to buy another batch. This time, the quantity is even greater. However, I still need a batch of tents, a thousand of them. ” Jiang Xuan said. “We’ll have to wait for a few days. The goods are still at sea. ” Tang Wen said. “No problem, we can make it. However, there’s been a war at the eastern coast recently, so I’ll be busy again. My Lord, please be aware that the sun nation is attacking. You must be careful of Pirates on the sea. Otherwise, the losses would be huge if the goods were stolen. ” Jiang Xuan said. “Sigh ... Lord Jiang’s luck is bad. As a matter of fact, he had just taken over the position and he had already encountered a huge battle. Furthermore, this time, it was right at his doorstep. Therefore, the mission given by the higher – ups is very important. ” Wei Zhao said with a sigh. “Motherf * cker, just the silver alone requires us to raise one million and five hundred thousand taels. They needed to buy swords, cannons, and firearms. In the past, we were already struggling to make ends meet, but now we still need so much. It’s difficult. ” Jiang Xuan patted the chair handle and said gloomily. They were here for money again ... Tang Wen was well aware of this. “I can donate 40 black – robed cannons, 700 Firebirds, 300000 taels of silver, and a batch of ammunition to Lord Jiang.” An idea came to Tang Wen’s mind. He hadn’t sold the pile of ‘trash’ in cloud ocean sect yet, so he might as well donate them to exchange for battle credits. “Lord Jue is benevolent and righteous, and dedicated to the country. I admire you, I admire you! Today, you’ve solved my pressing problem. From now on, you’re my brother. Your black – robed cannon and flagpole will be double the battle merits. The three hundred thousand taels of silver donated will be counted as 1.5 times the battle merits. Butler Wei, immediately calculate and convert it. ” Jiang Xuan stood up and cupped his hands in excitement. Afraid that Tang Wen would go back on his words, he quickly cooked the rice. Otherwise, if he failed to complete his mission, he would not be able to hold on to his position as commander. “The black – robed cannon is converted to 100000 taels of silver each, and the fire Swan is 600 taels of silver each. Forty of them would cost four million taels, and seven hundred of them would cost five hundred thousand taels. The ammunition was a total of five hundred thousand taels, and with the addition of three hundred thousand taels of silver, that would be forty – five taels ... Forty – five thousand battle merits. ” Wei Zhao immediately took out an Abacus and fiddled with it. “Hahaha, brother, are you satisfied with 45000 Battle Points?” Jiang Xuan laughed. “Thank you for your trouble, brother Jiang.” Tang Wen cupped his hands, knowing that Jiang xuanquan had given him 1.5 times, or even double. Otherwise, a second – hand black – clothed cannon would only cost 40000 to 50000 taels of silver at most, and Jiang Xuan had to convert it all into 100000 taels of silver. The fire Gu was about the same. The new one was only three to four hundred taels, and Jiang Xuan’s was six hundred taels ... “Hahaha, we’re brothers. We’re the same.” Jiang Xuan laughed.”By the way, the Yamen will have to pay you for the 1000 tents. This time, we’ll pay you 2000 taels of silver each.” No need to give a discount, no need to give a discount. Butler Wei, give us a total. ” “Then there’s no need. I’ll give you a 20% discount. I don’t want a 20% discount.” Tang Wen said. “No! Little brother, I bought it on behalf of the provincial governor’s office this time. Keep it, keep it. We should earn what we should earn. ” Jiang Xuan said with a smile. “Then this little brother will be impolite to refuse.” Tang Wen cupped his fists and smiled. “Two thousand for one, so a thousand is two million taels. This is a million taels of silver. Lord Jue, please keep it well. The governor’s office will send the remaining one million taels of silver over when the tent is in place. ” Jiang Xuan said. “Brother Jiang, with the sun nation’s attack, our coastal area will definitely be in chaos.” Tang Wen said. “That’s for sure. The Yamen has already withdrawn their forces to the vicinity of the provincial capital. Even the Navy deployed to defend Yanling Prefecture has been called back. This place is too remote, and it’s basically empty now. Only the garrison camps of each Prefecture are fighting on land. There’s no way to manage the sea, so I’m warning you to be careful of Pirates. I see that you’re in the middle of a large – scale construction on somi, and you can’t afford to let the Pirates destroy it. A year’s worth of hard work will go to waste, and how much money will you lose? Also, you have to pay attention to your own safety. If we really can’t do it, we’ll evacuate from somi Island and move to the provincial capital. ” Jiang Xuan said. “This is the Tang family’s business, and this is all we have left. I can’t leave. If the island is destroyed, the people will die.” Tang Wen shook his head. “Why didn’t you listen to my advice? where there’s life, there’s hope.” Jiang Xuan said.
