Answer 1

No se puede tener más, menos los cien que tú pides.

or

No se puede tener más, por no hablar de los cien que tú pides.

Answer 2

The thing is, you used a slightly different expression in your title and in your post. Julian's answer is absolutely spot on for the post.

Now If I were to do an exact translation of the title in terms of meaning and flavor, I would be inclined to use:

"ni uno más, mucho menos 100"

However, that does not work so well within the sentence you used in your post.
