1973 No bribery, no diplomacy

There is no regret medicine in the world, no matter how shrewd Ferdinand is, it is impossible to fly over these dozens of kilometers of canal, and at this moment, Counselor Raku has already begun to ask the British side for cooperation. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

In fact, there is nothing wrong with Counselor Raku's approach, diplomatic disputes are about reasonableness, advantage, and moderation, in which third-party evidence is very important, and the greater the influence of the third-party circumstantial evidence, the more beneficial it is to the negotiations.

The Chinese, France, the British, and Egyptians are the only four parties that can speak at the moment, among which Egypt's right to speak is negligible, so the most important thing left is the attitude of the United Kingdom.

Counsellor Raku's request for British assistance was not at all wrong with common sense, and it was a diplomatic attempt. But after all, Counselor Raku did not have Ferdinand's cultivation of the Tao of profoundness, and he did not understand many deep-seated national interests thoroughly.

After more than three hours of ineffective conversation, Major General Jason was still pretending to be a stupid boy with a confused face, and Raku gradually lost his patience, and just as he was about to say something disrespectful, suddenly there was an urgent knock on the hatch.

"Your Excellency Counselor! A sudden message came from the shore that the Chinese had come to our consulate in Port Said!

"What? So fast! It's so arrogant, shelling the fifth station, the army landing and fighting with us, and finally destroying the telegraph line, and they dare to take the initiative to come to the door?"

"After crashing into our warship, they still dare to come over and mobilize the people?"

Jason wiped the foam on his face, and Xingzi suddenly said lightly: "Yes, what you said is not wrong, but now there is a problem, you have shot at the emperor of the Great Qing Kingdom! What if the Chinese hold on to this point?"

Counselor Silaku gasped, and said in his heart that this is really a big trouble!

"General! I think about the friendship between our two countries, I don't think you should testify for the Chinese, right?"

"Hahaha!" Jason laughed dryly, "Don't let the Chinese wait too long, it's not polite enough! But I have to remind you that since you didn't choose to resolve the conflict by force in the early morning, there is no chance at all now."

"You're threatening me?" said Counselor Raku, grime.

"No, no, no, I'm definitely not a threat, I'm just telling you the fact that some opportunities are missed!"

Jason secretly cursed in his heart: "Coward, if you really take advantage of the chaos in the morning to open fire and ruthlessly start a war with the Chinese, will you and I mix? We are not stupid in Britain, sandpiper mussels compete for fishermen and profits, how good is it that the Chinese say?"

"How good it would be for me to escort a wrecked Zhiyuan into the mouth of the Thames River when the time comes! When the time comes, the Prime Minister will definitely reward me, you yourself have lost such a great opportunity, and now you dare to glare at me!"

This is really a person under the low eaves, Counselor Raku finally did not have the courage to turn against the British, before leaving, the counselor suddenly whispered, "I hope the general can think about it, if this matter can be resolved smoothly, I will consider the number of troops you garrison in the canal"

"Haha, it's good, it's good, you go slowly" Jason watched Counselor Raku leave the battleship and board the dinghy, and then returned to the cabin and opened his precious safe, as if caressing a lover's skin, stroking the tea cups and dishes.

"Beautiful, so beautiful! Although Europe can also produce porcelain, but no matter how it is compared, it lacks such a little charm, hehehe, timid and greedy Frenchman, want to exchange my spit for my actual support?

"If the dry goods are in place, I may use my personal identity to prove it for you, but if you are so unenlightened, then don't blame me for being rude"

"Someone, inform Zhiyuan to inform the honorable head of state, just say that I have two bottles of aged whisky here, I hope to taste them together in the evening, and I like the sweet and sour meat made by the Chinese chef very much, and I hope to taste it again!"

In fact, Major General Jason misunderstood Counselor Raku, Raku himself is not the kind of person who is not open-minded, and it is normal for each other to bribe each other in diplomatic occasions, and everyone knows it.

Raku is ready, and when he returns to the consulate, he will prepare a big gift for the British side, and the price will be around tens of thousands of gold francs.

But it's a pity that Laku never realized how big Xiao Letian's handwriting was, and if this set of Southern Song Dynasty official kiln porcelain was put in the European collection circle, it would be worth more than 100,000 gold francs.

Xiao Lotian is definitely not a miser, in his heart, money is used, as long as it can solve the problem, it is no problem to spend a little more.

At the French Consulate in Port Said, twelve heavily armed Chinese naval sailors at the gate wore military dresses that would only be used in ceremonies, white shirts, light blue military uniforms, small lapels, thick cow belts to tie their waists, and knee-high boots shiny and shiny.

Every button on the military uniform is pure copper, and the gold is shining, and there are requirements in the Chinese housekeeping, and the metal buttons must be wiped bright every day, and there must be no staining.

This military uniform is paired with a brand-new Mauser, and a revolver around the waist, coupled with the fact that the Chinese are obviously different from the figure and facial features of the Europeans, which has a unique temperament.

There is a hint of civility mixed in with the mighty, domineering, and orderly! This is the credit of Xiao Letian's demand for the whole army to popularize compulsory education, and neither the British nor the French army dares to guarantee that the illiteracy rate is zero, but such a miracle has been created in the Chinese army.

Educated people and uneducated people have absolutely different temperaments, and the illiterate ones will definitely be confused when they open their eyes, and the twelve pacesetters brought out by Xiang Ying have reached the level where they can communicate normally in English, and the reason and wisdom in the eyes of this kind of person are revealed.

The military uniform on Xiang Ying's body is more gorgeous, all the buttons are copper gilt, which looks brighter and dazzling, and the material of the military uniform is also more expensive, and there are no wrinkles at all when it is scalded by the orderlies.

The officer's dress has a large number of gold thread tassel decorations, and there are many metal nameplates to increase the taste of iron and blood, and the waist imitates the Tang knife, which is a ceremonial guard knife created by the Fusang swordsmith and the Qing swordsmith after joint research.

Gems and gold adorned the handles, and the pure white gloves pinched the honor guard knife, adding a bit of heroism to Xiang Yingping.

I have to say that human beings are a kind of visual animals, and there is a famous saying in later generations, called who is beautiful and who is reasonable. The people subconsciously like to get close to handsome men and beautiful women, and as soon as Xiang Ying and these twelve handsome pacesetters appeared, it immediately caused a sensation among the people of Port Said.

The crowd became more and more crowded, and even the veiled women were dispatched, and they looked at these Chinese from a distance, their eyes were unusually strange.

Note: On the fourth day, I felt my blood pressure soar rapidly, and I had to eat and rest
