Chapter 1153： Bribery

After sending Marin and his party to the congress hall all the way, Fang Yong and his Jin Wuwei took most of Marin's bodyguards to the Jinwuwei's station in the city to stay.

The congregation is dedicated to entertaining the envoys or monarchs of the vassals, but in general, few monarchs come to pay tribute. After all, the monarch generally does not leave the country lightly to avoid domestic changes. In addition, it is also very dangerous to go by sea. Therefore, the general vassal states send emissaries to pay tribute, and will not let the monarch in danger.

As for Marin's bodyguards, apart from twenty or thirty confidant bodyguards such as Kahn, everyone else was arranged to live in Jinwuwei's military camp.

In fact, if it weren't for Marin's 9oo bodyguards, who were not armed and only carried flags, they were not qualified to enter the capital and would only camp outside the city.

Generally speaking, even if a foreign monarch comes to Korea in person, the entourage must not exceed 100 people. The rest are not allowed to enter the city outside the city.

However, Marin presented a level auspicious tortoise, and the 9oo people were not allowed to enter the city. However, they were also placed in Jin Wuwei's station to facilitate Jin Wuwei to monitor them.

After moving into the congregation, Marin quickly received the notice from the host and guest Shi Langzhong Huang Qing and sent him the date of the tribute. It was scheduled for the fifteenth lunar month of the lunar calendar, about five days later.

Emperor Zhengde was not a diligent emperor, and often went to the dynasty only a few days. Otherwise, Liu Jin does not have the opportunity to invade the government and the emperor to deal with political affairs every day. Is there any chance for you to be an eunuch?

It is precisely because Zhengde does not go up often, often Liu Jin replaces it in red, and it is reported only when it encounters important setbacks. Ordinary trivial matters are directly approved by Liu Jin. In this way, there is room for Liu Jin to operate. For example, Liu Jin can judge for himself which is a major event and which is a minor event. Only those who are considered to be major events are sent to Zhengde for personal approval. Those who are considered to be trivial are responsible for themselves ... But what is major and trivial depends on how Liu Jin judges, so he has the opportunity to take control of North Korea ...

...

Seeing that it would be five days before the DPRK meeting was held, Marin decided to take this opportunity to bribe the people who need to bribe ...

Marin brought a few carts of silver, all packed in boxes, escorted by the guards personally, without dealing with others. These silvers are used to bribe Liu Jin and others.

Originally, Marin wanted to bribe a few more people. However, when I thought about it later, Liu Jin's people were all looking forward to Liu Jin. As long as Liu Jin nodded, others would not dare not agree.

As for the dissatisfaction of other people in Liu Jin's party? When Liu Jin collapses, they will also be unlucky. So, don't care about what they think.

Similarly, Liu Jin does not need to bribe the officials on the opposite side. Because they do not have the right to speak at the moment.

However, the others of Zhengde Bahu had to bribe. Because, although Liu Jin is the most powerful, others are not bad. The most important thing is that after Liu Jin collapsed, it was when these people turned over. Don't bribe them now, and wait for Liu Jin to fall, and I will definitely wear small shoes for you.

Moreover, the **** is the most vengeful. If you ignore him, you will be most easily remembered. Therefore, others can not bribe, but Zhengde eight tigers can not run, they have to wait in place.

Of course, the **** Gao Feng has retired and returned home to provide for the elderly, so there is no need to bribe. There is also Qiu Ju, who has been assigned to Nanjing and is out of reach. As for Zhang Yong who went to Anhua (Qingyang) to appease the hearts of the people, although people were not there, Marin must also give gifts. Otherwise, it will be a bad thing to be remembered by Zhang Yong after returning. Moreover, because of the merits of revealing Liu Jin, Zhang Yong was later re-used.

...

However, if you want to bribe these eunuchs, dragging a large box to the door during the day seems indecent and will be criticized. However, there is a curfew in Beijing at night, and you cannot go out casually. In addition, Qianzhuang has not yet emerged in this era (Qianzhuang ticket numbers will not emerge until the later period of the Jiajing Dynasty), so it is difficult to exchange so many silver into convenient silver tickets. Therefore, Marin quietly contacted Jin Jin through Jinyiwei and said that he would visit at night and asked him to help with the curfew problem.

Liu Jin naturally knew that Marin was going to pay a bribe, and he was naturally happy. What's more, he has a right to deal with it, and it's a one-line matter.

Then, a small team of Jin Yiwei was sent to the congregation to assist Marin. Then, Marin also put on a Jinyiwei costume (not a flying fish suit, flying fish suits must not be rewarded or worn indiscriminately), pretending to be going out with Jinyiwei to handle cases at night ...

As for the guards under Marin who were responsible for carrying the silver boxes, they also put on the ordinary clothing of low-grade Jin Yiwei.

Then, under the guidance of several official Jin Yiweis, that night, Marin and several men, with a few boxes of silver, came to Liu Jin's palace outside the palace ...

"Marin, the head of the Beihai Kingdom, has seen Grandpa Liu!"

After coming to the living room of Liu Jinfu, Marin saw Liu Jin sitting on the throne and bowed quickly to give a gift. It was a standard salute ...

In fact, at the time of the Ming Dynasty, Liu Jinquan leaned toward the opposition. When Daming's ordinary prince Hou Bo saw Liu Jin, he not only had to salute, but even kneel.

But Marin is the lord of the foreign vassal state, and this is the "barbarian" who "does not have the etiquette". Therefore, Liu Jin will not be too careless. What's more, Marin is here to send money, the God of Wealth. Moreover, Marin was not happy to kneel as an eunuch, too shameful. Just kneel to Emperor Zhengde, kneel to an eunuch, but that's a big joke. Therefore, he pretends to be stupid, and Liu Jin is not convenient to openly ask a foreign monarch to kneel for him.

Liu Jin snorted casually, indicating that he knew. Then he set his sights on the few boxes brought by Marin ...

Malin suddenly realized that he opened the box ...

Then, through the light, the shiny silver appeared under Liu Jin's eyelids ...

Marin brought a total of five boxes, each of which contained 12,000 silver. Rao Liu Jin saw more gold and silver, and was quite satisfied with the five boxes of silver. After all, Marin is just a fan of the ghost, and he is still satisfied with being able to give him so much money.

"Grandpa Ma, please sit down!" Liu Jin saw the money, and his attitude immediately improved a lot. He asked Marlin to sit down.

"More of Liu Gong's seats!" Marin sat down happily and accompanied Liu Jin.

"I don't know how far away Grandpa Ma's Beihai country is from Daming. What is the radius of the country? How much is the population?" Liu Jin asked immediately. Regarding Marin, Liu Jin held a high mindset and was too lazy to ask directly.

"My country is more than 26,000 miles away from Daming 6th Road ..." Marin thought about the length of the 6th Asia-Europe Bridge, and applied it directly.

"But the 6th road is very unsafe, there are many powerful countries along the way, and there are many strong cavalry forces such as Mongolia. Therefore, the average person will not take the 6th road. Otherwise, the grassland barbarians will be killed halfway."

"What about the sea? How far?" Liu Jin asked with interest.

"It's about thirty or forty thousand miles. It's more than a year to go. But it's not safe to go by sea. If you encounter a hurricane, you will surely destroy the ship. So, coming to Daming is actually a gamble!"

Liu Jin nodded and agreed with Marin. As the **** of the Ming Dynasty, Zheng He is definitely the idol of the **** of the Ming Dynasty. As for Zheng He ’s sailing deeds, Liu Jin also knew about it, knowing that Marin was right. Above the South China Sea, hurricanes (typhoons) often occur. If the ship meets, it will never run.

"What about your country's territory and population?"

"The country's land area is about the same as that of Zhejiang Province ..." Malin thought about it, as if the area of ​​the German native land of the Beihai country was about 65,000 square kilometers. However, the newly acquired Scottish highlands have more than 20,000 square kilometers, plus the southern border provinces, Northumberland, England and Wicklow County, Ireland, which add up to more than 10 thousand square kilometers, basically catching up with Zhejiang Province.

"People ... Probably less than 2oo million ..." This statement actually has moisture ~ www.novelhall.com ~ The North Sea country has a local population of about 150,000, but the Scottish Highlands and other places are sparsely populated. The county and Wicklow County have very few populations, which is not far from 20 million. But there was no way for the people of the Ming Dynasty to prove it, so they naturally bragged with Marin. Moreover, Marin is not too much.

"Oh, it's quite big ... Look at Grandpa Ma's shots so generous, could it be your state-owned silver mine?" Liu Jin is a greedy guy. Obviously, this product has caught Malin's idea and wants more.

Marin can't be stupid to say that he has more money, so he began to cry poorly ...

Marin said that all the money was owned by the North Sea State Treasury. If you can get Daming's permission, you can buy silk and other Daming products and sell them back to China to recover the cost. Otherwise, it will go bankrupt ...

Liu Jin listened impatiently, but also dispelled the thought of continuing to blackmail Malin. In his view, the Fanbang barbarians are all backcountries, and they came to pay tribute to the Ming Dynasty to come to ask for more rewards. Therefore, he believes that the North Sea country has no money.

Seeing that Marin sent so many silvers, Liu Jin agreed to help Marin speak.

Then, Marin took the opportunity to ask Liu Jin to continue to help, let him go to several other eunuchs to give gifts. Moreover, Marin also deliberately let Liu Jin know that he only intends to give away one or two thousand or two silver ...

Liu Jin was really in a good mood and agreed to help. Moreover, Marin's hand also convinced Liu Jin that Marin really has no money ...

In fact, fifty thousand two silvers is only equivalent to more than 43,000 gold coins. Marin sells a batch of food for more than one hundred thousand gold coins. Marlin didn't feel distressed for this little money. Of course, he doesn't want to continue to be slaughtered as an injustice. Therefore, Liu Jin deliberately thought he had no money ...
