Chapter 534: Reaching a Consensus
Chapter 534: Achieve a consensus
Hamid and Susilo looked at each other and silently planned in their hearts.
One tael of silver in Zhou State is roughly equivalent to one and a half silver coins in Saro State.
Five million taels of silver, that is seven and five million silver coins, which is definitely an astronomical number.
Hamid had no idea whether the nobles of the Sarro Kingdom would be willing to take out so many silver coins.
Just when Hamid was hesitating, Susilo said firmly: "Okay! Your Highness! Just five million taels! We will make up for it in one sentence!"
Hamid looked at Susilo in surprise, you should really agree!
That was not seven hundred and fifty silver coins, but seven hundred and fifty million silver coins.
How did you know that domestic nobles can bring out so many silver coins?
Even if they have one, are they willing to pay out this huge amount of money?
Susilo gave Hamid a soothing look, indicating that he didn't have to be nervous.
Hearing that Susilo had agreed to his conditions, Li Yu turned his eyes and looked at Hamid with a smile.
Hamid smiled without laughing, nodded at Li Yu, and said, "I...I accept it too!"
Seeing that both of them accepted their conditions, Li Yu said, "We will make up for it!"
Next, Li Yu discussed tomorrow's tactics with Hamid and Susilo.
Until the sky gradually became brighter and the sky turned white, Li Yu said goodbye to Hamid and Susilo.
Before leaving, Hamid frowned and said, "Your Highness, King Wu, I should have sent you out of the camp in person! But now the people of Xifan are very strict with us, Saro people. If I come forward to send your highness, it will make your highness more likely to reveal your identity!"
Susilo, who was beside him, also looked embarrassed.
Li Yu smiled disapprovingly and said, "No one has to send me it! Since I can come in, I can naturally go out!"
Hamid really admires Li Yu's courage and ability from the bottom of his heart.
He stroked his chest and bowed, saying, "I wish your highness a safe return to the city!"
"I also wish us a success tomorrow!"
Li Yu bowed to Hamid and Susilo, and walked out without delaying the time.
This time is at four or five o'clock in the morning, which is also the most difficult time for people to get out of the Xifan Army camp at this time.
They first found a secluded place where no one was around, and Ling Yun and Yan Mo put on makeup and dressed up Li Yu again. Then, the four of them walked north, intending to go out from Beiying.
They came in from Beiying.
The Xifan army guarding the camp gate still remembers the four of them.
Seeing the four of them walking out, the officer in charge asked specifically: "Are you going out to patrol again?"
Li Yu didn't understand, but he would 'yes'.
He nodded and nodded.
The officer signaled the soldiers to open the camp gate and let the four of them come out.
When Li Yu and the other four walked out, the officer couldn't help but shake his head and said, "It seems that you offended your boss!"
I just finished patrol late last night. I returned to the camp. It was just dawn this morning and I had to go out to patrol again. I have only had a few hours of sleep?
Li Yu pretended to be listless, drooped his head, nodded again, and nodded again.
As the four of them gradually moved away, the officer did not speak anymore, yawned, leaned against the camp gate, and continued to take a nap.
In fact, if he observes carefully, he will find clues. No matter what he asks or says, Li Yu's reaction will always nod and say another uh...
Walking out of the sight of the Xifan Army post, Li Yu and the other two immediately accelerated their pace, ran all the way to the place where the boat was hidden, dragged the boat out, and the four of them boarded the boat and quickly returned to Huaian City.
When they rowed the boat and returned to Huaian City smoothly, the four of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Tonight's action was really dangerous. If you were not careful, the four of them had to explain in the Xifan Army camp.
Fortunately, the whole operation was safe and it was worth it to meet Hamid and Susilo.
It also verified that the Sarau people's turnaround was not a trap designed by the Xifan Army.
As soon as Li Yu and the other four walked to the city gate, the city gate creaked open and dried up. Liang Ping and others quickly came out from inside.
Seeing Li Yu’s four ‘Xianfan people’, Liang Ping asked tentatively: “Your Highness?”
Li Yuhan smiled and said, "It's me!"
As he spoke, he looked around everyone present and said, "Sorry, I've worried everyone tonight!"
It was true that it was Li Yu. Liang Ping quickly stepped forward without even caring about the courtesy and said anxiously: "Your Highness sneaked into the enemy camp alone, it would be too reckless! What if there is a mistake in the enemy camp, hundreds of thousands of soldiers...what should we do?"
"It is better for us to take risks than for hundreds of thousands of soldiers to take risks together!"
Seeing that Liang Ping was still complaining about him, Li Yu immediately changed the topic and said, "Fortunately, the adventure tonight is worth it, and it is not worth the trip!"
Chen Fang asked quickly, "His highness met Hamid and Susilo?"
"Let's talk about it when we go back!"
Li Yu returned to his residence, washed off the makeup on his face, changed his clothes, and then started a secret talk with Shen Fang and Liang Ping.
He told everyone about the results of his negotiations with Hamid and Susilo.
Liang Ping frowned and said with a gentle brow, "These Saro people really never suffer any losses! If they help us fight off the Xifan people, aren't they also rescued themselves?
It is obviously a matter of mutual benefit between the two sides, but they have made it more and more demanding, asking us to help them restore the country!”
Li Yu nodded. This is the character of the Saro people and never suffer any losses.
To be more precise, they feel that they don’t take advantage of it, that is a loss!
Li Yu said: "That's why I asked them for five million taels of silver!"
Liang Ping said angrily: "If you can really help them restore their country and even carry Hamid to the throne, your highness only costs five million taels of silver, not much!"
Chen Guang's eyes turned around and said seriously: "In fact, helping the Saro Kingdom restore the country is also beneficial to our Great Zhou. At least, outside of Wan Kingdom, there is another barrier to block the people of Xifan!"
Liang Ping nodded thoughtfully.
Li Yu said: "Today, let the soldiers rest as much as possible and maintain their energy. At midnight tonight, our soldiers will be divided into Huaian City, Huaishan Fortress, and Anshan Fortress to jointly send troops to attack the Xifan Army camp in three directions!"
"Yes! Your Highness!"
Everyone intervened and took the order.
I haven't slept all night, and Li Yu is not sleepy yet.
He returned to his study and circled around the sand table placed in the center of the study.
He was doing deductions in his mind while watching, considering what was going on tonight, where there were omissions and where there were things to pay attention to.
A woman, carrying a tray, came to the door of the study.
Jinwu glanced at the woman, took the tray, and then he tiptoed into the study and whispered: "Your Highness has been tired all night, let's have a cup of tea first!"
Li Yu took the teacup and drank it briefly. When he saw the woman standing at the door of the study, he asked with a smile: "Is this the tea made by Miss Zhao?"
The woman who gave tea was the newly acquired maid from Li Yu not long ago, Zhao Yafu.
She bowed to Li Yufushen and said, "It's the tea I made by my maid!"
After a moment of pause, she whispered again: "Just just call your maid's name!"
