    Matsudaira Kubo did not expect that Liu Baolu would do such a trick, and thought to himself: "If you, a damn eunuch, count all the numbers clearly, wouldn't I really have no choice but to commit suicide!"

    So Matsudaira Kubo quickly stopped him and said, "My lord in charge, what are you doing? These are tributes to the Ming Emperor. If they are damaged by you, your head will be lost!"

    Wang Quan's face suddenly turned pale with fright after hearing the call that threatened to make him lose his head. He quickly translated Matsudaira Kubo's words to Liu Baolu. If it were normal times, Matsudaira Kubo's words would definitely be effective, but Liu Baolu had already received a call from Lao Wang An.  The order was to make things difficult for the Japanese mission, and Lao Wang An also made it clear that it didn¡¯t matter how you did it!

    Therefore, in order to handle things beautifully, Liu Baolu naturally did not worry about Matsudaira Kubo's threats. He just said with a smile: "Our family is from the palace. Since these are tributes to His Majesty, our family naturally has to count them."  The tributes must be inspected, and these tributes must be recorded in categories, and then the list will be sent to the capital. After you arrive in the capital, the palace will also check carefully according to the list. If there is any damage or missing, you must be careful!"

    Matsudaira Kubo's heart felt so cold this time. If he really transported these ten shipments of goods to Beijing at his own expense, he would definitely have lost money, but if he stayed here, he would still lose money. He really regretted it now. How could he be so obsessed with spending so much money?  Asking for help to do this next job is really shooting yourself in the foot!

    Matsudaira Kubo watched with a pale face as Liu Baolu and his men inspected the ten shipments of goods one by one. The category, quantity, and price of the goods were clearly recorded in a book. This time he didn't even have the means to do anything wrong!

    Suddenly, Matsudaira Kubo thought of something. The eunuch in front of him was a domestic slave of the Ming Emperor. Since he had finished checking the goods, does that mean that the Ming Emperor had accepted these tributes?

    Thinking of this, Matsudaira Kubo suddenly felt a glimmer of hope in his heart, and he immediately said to Liu Baolu: "Your Excellency, since you have checked these tributes, it should be regarded as His Majesty the Ming Emperor has accepted the tributes, so please send someone to take these tributes."  Send the tribute to the capital!"

    After all, Liu Baolu was also a figure who had been in chaos in the palace for half his life. As soon as he heard this, he knew what Matsudaira Kubo was planning. He smiled coldly and said: "You Japanese are really a bunch of uncivilized savages. How can you give gifts?"  Why does the owner transport it himself?"

    Matsudaira Kubo argued forcefully: "If the gift is not delivered, it naturally has to be delivered by the person who gave it. But since the person in charge has accepted the gift on behalf of the Ming Emperor, then this matter of the movement is naturally the Ming Dynasty's business!"

    Liu Baolu glanced at Matsudaira Kubo with disdain and sneered: "You are good at calculating. Don't say that our family is not qualified to accept your tribute on behalf of His Majesty. Even if our family is qualified to accept it, you kid won't even think about it, even if you are here  You have taken advantage of it, but do you still have to transport the things His Majesty has given you?"

    Matsudaira Kubo just thought of this problem at this time, and he was a little overwhelmed for a moment. Now it seems that it is impossible to refuse the freight in front of Liu Baolu, but they have already spent a lot of money to transport the tribute to the capital of the Ming Dynasty.  , if we carry back the Ming Emperor's gift in return, wouldn't the consumption be doubled?

    If this is the case, Matsudaira Kubo feels that it is better not to return to the Japanese country and find an island to become a Japanese pirate. After all, there is still a way to survive as a Japanese pirate. If he returns to the Japanese country with such a result, he may even commit suicide by disemboweling himself.  The chance is gone!

    Thinking of this, Matsudaira Kubo went crazy with anxiety. He grabbed Liu Baolu regardless of etiquette and shouted: "Master in charge, your Ming Dynasty is a country of etiquette. You can't bully us foreign envoys like this. I want to accuse you to His Majesty the Ming Emperor."  Whatever you have done, you will definitely be punished by His Majesty the Ming Emperor!"

    Liu Baolu shook off Matsudaira Kubo and said secretly: "Our ancestors gave us the order to deal with you. Since our ancestors dared to give such an order, it was naturally your Majesty's order. Just wait until you are cheated and lose all your money!"

    With such confidence, how could Liu Baolu be polite to Matsudaira Kubo?

    I saw Eunuch Liu curling his lips, looking like a fool in his eyes, and said carelessly: "I said you overseas barbarians don't understand the rules. You really don't understand the rules. Since you are here to honor our majesty, why do you still care about it?"  What are you doing with so much? It is a great gift for His Majesty to see you. If you can please His Majesty and reward you with some things, it means that your ancestors have accumulated great virtues for eight lifetimes. How can you still dare to pick and choose?  Isn¡¯t it because you Japanese people are dishonest in honoring His Majesty? If that¡¯s the case, take these tributes back and don¡¯t wait until the time comes.It's stained His Majesty's eyes!  "

    Liu Baolu talked so much that Wang Quan, the translator, struggled to remember it. Of course, it was impossible to translate it word for word, so he roughly summarized what Liu Baolu meant and translated with disdain in his tone: "Sir  I said, it is a gift from God that you can see His Majesty. If you still dare to make trouble unreasonably, then take these things of yours back!"

    Although Matsudaira Kubo also felt that Liu Baolu said so much, the interpreter only translated one sentence, which was a bit wrong. However, he also knew that although the interpreter could not translate word for word, he would not change the meaning privately, so he heard that Liu Baolu actually drove them away.  , I felt even more panicked!

    If the tribute to the Ming Dynasty this time only included the round-trip freight and the food and drink of the personnel, although Matsudaira Kubo would be punished after returning, it can be said that this was caused by the unreasonable emperors and ministers of the Ming Dynasty and deliberately treated him harshly. But if he did not even go to Beijing, then  If he is driven back, no matter how he explains, it will be useless. When the time comes, the Ming Dynasty will send someone to reprimand him for his disrespectful remarks towards the Ming Emperor. I am afraid that he will really be skinned and cramped by the angry general!

    Thinking of this, Matsudaira Kubo also made up his mind. He was going to Beijing no matter what. As for the future, let¡¯s deal with the mess in front of him first!

    After making up his mind, Matsudaira Kubo's mind started to come alive. He suddenly thought that he had brought a thousand people with him this time. Since these people wanted to eat and drink, he might as well let them do some work. This trip  The task of transporting the tributes falls on them, so the losses will be reduced a lot. Even if they are a little more demanding on the road, they may still make some money on this trip!

    Thinking of this, Matsudaira Kubo finally felt a little confident. He shouted to the warriors and followers behind him: "Gentlemen, although the Ming Dynasty monarchs and ministers treat us harshly, as Japanese warriors, we cannot be treated like this."  I am frightened by the small difficulties, so I, Matsudaira Kubo, would like to ask you all to work with me to transport these tributes to the capital of the Ming Dynasty. Please help me!"

    At the end of the story, Matsudaira Kubo even knelt down and kowtowed to show his sincerity. Upon seeing this, the warriors and followers who came with him quickly knelt down and said in unison: "We are willing to share the joys and sorrows with Matsudaira-sama!"

    After listening to Wang Quan's translation, Liu Baolu showed a sneer on his face again, and said in a nonchalant manner: "I heard that the military master who just walked over asked you to meet in front of Jingguan outside Suzhou at 10:00 tomorrow. If you  If we continue to delay like this, I¡¯m afraid we¡¯ll be late!¡±

    Wang Quan was very smart and shouted this sentence directly. Matsudaira Kubo suddenly turned around and asked: "How far is Jingguan outside Suzhou City from here?"

    Liu Baolu said unhurriedly: "It's not far, only about two hundred miles. If you set out now and drive all night, you might be able to get there before Chen time!"

    After hearing this, Matsudaira Kubo's eyes turned green, and he was stunned and said: "Nani!" (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
