Chapter 747 - 366: Vicious Girl! _2
Haigang said, "The conditions have been laid out, three types of marriage alliances, choose one."
Only the first two could be considered marriage alliances, the third option was simply a direct transaction, where Suo Lun would exchange the annual sum of four to five hundred thousand Gold Coins to secure Haigang’s military support.
After all, Haigang’s deployment wasn’t for Suo Lun’s sake, but to help himself. The Yan Mo was his biggest enemy.
But since the Yan Mo first attacked Suo Lun, Haigang naturally took the opportunity to ask for an exorbitant price.
Suo Lun closed his eyes to think, and after a long time he said, "Thirty percent, that’s the most I can give you of the marine trade proceeds. It’s already an astronomical figure."
Haigang hesitated for less than three seconds before nodding and saying, "Deal!"
Thus, Suo Lun secured Haigang’s troops at the cost of several hundred thousand Gold Coins each year, to join forces in attacking the Yan Mo.
This price was nearly astronomical.
But there was no choice, when one is in need of help, one can’t expect generosity from the other party.
"Deal," Suo Lun said.
Then Suo Lun couldn’t help but speak sarcastically, "Lord Haigang, the first time you did business with Ashi Luo, you didn’t take a penny and even contributed thirty thousand naval forces. The second time with Zhi Li, another ten thousand naval forces. But with me, you’re extorting hundreds of thousands of Gold Coins each year. You really do treat people differently."
