Chapter 239: The Plague Blessing (5)

(TXT ) (TXT ) (TXT) The fifth wave of grain ships went less than two days, the real overseas goods arrived at Tabutou, a full six ships of timber from Milican were led by small boats to dock at the new dock in Tabutou, the Germans in Jiaoao couldn't sit still, Lucas took Torbol on a cruiser with two gunboats to Tabutou, the meaning of the demonstration is very clear, XT website super fast and stable update, this article by. Starting

"Mr. Li, Jiaozhou Bay is a leased territory of the German Empire, and when ships dock and goods go ashore, they must be approved by the Governor's Office of Jiaoao, Germany.

Straight to the point, the translator brought by Lucas, sat down and said a slap in the face, after listening, Li Dacheng's face was also gloomy, he took out a foreign cigarette roll from his arms and lit one, after a few puffs, he felt that the taste was a little weird, Li Dacheng casually extinguished the cigarette butt on the table.

"Jiaozhou Bay is your leased land? That's a new statement!

Since you have all said so, I have nothing to say, you expel the American merchant ships!

Lucas, you underestimate my ability too much, we have a saying in the Qing Dynasty that you do the first year of junior high school and I do the fifteenth, the next thing, let's ride a donkey and read the record book, and we'll see!

Please......"

At the beginning of Lucas, Li Dacheng didn't like it, sometimes things have to be done by temperament, no matter how big Li Dacheng's plan is in Jiaoao, Lucas's words have touched Li Dacheng's bottom line, so at the beginning, no matter how good the result of the negotiation is, it can't be continued.

He Li Dacheng has never been a soft persimmon, the international situation determines that the Germans in Jiaoao are soft persimmons, after the expeditionary force was frustrated, Germany had no chance to send troops to the Qing Dynasty, with thousands of people want to have the final say in Jiaozhou Mansion, this can only be said after the fight.

Lucas was not given any chance to explain. Li Dacheng directly asked the people on the dock to inform the American fleet that the Germans were not allowed to unload the cargo and asked them to do their own thing.

At this time, although the Americans were not very ambitious in foreign affairs, they were also very adventurous, and the British could not scare them, and the Germans were the same.

Before Li Dacheng targeted the Germans! Six American cargo ships blocked the channel of the German ** ship, and the officials of the Qing Dynasty may not understand the international situation, but the owners and captains of those ships roaming the sea. But it was well aware of the situation in the Far East, and the Germans were not the strongest ones, even if American merchant ships harassed German warships. The Germans did not dare to use force either.

After leaving Lucas in an embarrassing situation at that time, Li Dacheng also reacted, still like last time, the Germans along the Jiaoji Line sent all the gifts back to Jiaoao, and the Jiaoji Railway, which had just started construction, was ordered to stop. The Jiaolai defenders blockaded Jiaoao. In addition to this, Li Dacheng also issued a decree to the people of Jiaoao. No Qing people were allowed to contribute to the Jiaoao wharf, and they found one to kill the other. If you want to make a living, you can come to Jiaozhou Mansion.

The mobilization of the Jiaolai garrison naturally did not pass through the imperial court. After the last transfer, someone impeached Gui Shun for privately mobilizing the Jiaolai defenders, what was the result? Gui Shun's explanation to Shanxi was that the transfer of the Jiaolai garrison was purely a false rumor, and it was later confirmed by the Jiaozhou government that 5,000 Jiaolai defenders had been stationed on the side of the Jiaozhou Mansion and had never moved without permission.

As for the statement of the German embassy, it was directly explained by Gui Shun that they wanted to obtain greater benefits in Shandong, so they bought off the officials of the Qing Dynasty and spread some rumors in the officialdom.

The dead have to be buttoned with a traitor's hat, and when the person dies, the matter is not over, with this traitor's hat, Gui Shun dug up the ancestral graves of those who dared to speak out and dare to admonish, and carried the three clans of Zhulian, with a murderous and undisguised means, and suppressed the entire officialdom at once.

Jiaolai's Zhenwei army, only Gui Shun can mobilize, far more than the 5,000-strong team, Lao Yuan and Lao Li are also clear, but the 5,000 Jiaolai defenders on the surface have indeed never been mobilized, so which one is the power to balance the Germans in Shandong? Boxer? Zhenwei Army? Who would dare to say that now?

It is sometimes difficult to control the mouthpiece of public opinion, but sometimes it is very simple, and undisguised killing, murderous means of killing, are the best weapons to deal with these mouthpieces of public opinion.

The relationship between the imperial court and the Jiaozhou Mansion is clear, and the Jiaozhou Mansion can only be left to Li Dacheng's actions, the words of the Germans are not good in Beijing, and the words of Guishun and Jiaozhou Mansion are the real truth.

The Americans and the Germans failed to negotiate a result that day, and now Germany is eager to expand its influence in the Far East, and its posture is still quite arrogant, and whether or not to unload goods involves the development of the Jiaoao colony, and the threat of blocking the shipping lane with only a few cargo ships cannot make the Germans in Jiaoao compromise.

The affairs of the Far East had to be dealt with in the Far East, and soon the telegrams of American businessmen were sent to Beijing, and the Qing Dynasty could also act as a mediator in disputes between the United States and Germany, and between the United States and Germany, Britain, France, and Japan were all biased towards the United States.

Gui Shun's starting point is very reasonable for the Qing court, at the beginning of the Boxer Rebellion, it was the most powerful German clamoring, the Eight-Nation Alliance's invasion of China, from the perspective of the Qing Dynasty, can also be understood as provoked by the Germans, if it weren't for Clinder killing the Boxers in the capital at will, the Boxers could kill Clint?

The boiling propaganda of the German Emperor Huns, not only damaged the face of the Qing Dynasty, but also damaged the face of the Empress Dowager Lafayette, Gui Shun took revenge on the Germans at the negotiation table, although it was planned by Li Dacheng, but before this matter was said, it was still approved by Shanxi, the old ladies had a bad impression of the foreign devils, the Germans were arrogant, and the old ladies were naturally more disgusted, even if there was a seriously ill Li Hongzhang in it, Gui Shun's proposition was still recognized by Shanxi Xingyuan.

Squeeze the Germans out of Jiaoao, Jiaoao can not return to the hands of the Qing Dynasty, Gui Shun's statement is to hand over Jiaoao to the Americans who also have a certain amount of power in Shandong, which is also a serial set, with Gui Shun such a proposal, even if the Americans can not live in Jiaoao, will correspondingly expand his influence in Shandong, Shandong this boundary, Li Dacheng has always regarded it as his own territory, the Americans in Yantai, the British in Weihai, the Germans in Qingdao, and the Qing Dynasty in the interior. The world is divided into four parts, and the more forces there are, the more complicated the entanglement of interests becomes.

If we can successfully squeeze the Germans out of Jiaoao and let the Americans take over, this result will be even better! Now the Americans who advocate freedom have no intention of colonizing, the market is what they care about most, and as soon as the Germans leave, they themselves can take advantage of the trend and become agents of American interests, if there is such an outcome. It couldn't be better.

Six American merchant ships, of course, can also be unloaded at Yantai Commercial Port, but there are no buyers at Yantai Commercial Port. There were no buyers in other commercial ports in the Qing Dynasty, and the goods were not unloaded on the land of Jiaozhou Mansion, and Li Cheng in the south would not give money.

At the beginning of the planning, Li Dacheng had the idea of eating alone, and the multiplied freight was Li Dacheng's set for the Qing merchants. Now this time is under the shadow of the plague. Barter, except for porcelain. Tea was not marketable, and porcelain was used to barter the goods. There is also a high shipping cost, which is much higher than the cost of normal trading.

And Li Cheng has outrageously high prices of medicinal materials in his hands. It is Li Dacheng's big killer, at least twenty times the price difference, and half of the inventory of medicinal materials is where Li Dacheng's confidence lies in eating alone, and the price of the goods backlogged due to the plague is only one-tenth of the price of half of the medicinal materials in the plague hall at most.

Because of the price and the epidemic, the epidemic prevention Chinese medicine has been somewhat unsalable, and the unsalable goods can only be goods, and being overly obsessed with the price will only make these medicinal materials become inventory waste, and it is the best choice for Li Dacheng to exchange these unsalable medicinal materials for the accumulated goods of various countries at high prices.

Although the Qing Dynasty has opened countless ports, the only person who can really eat this batch of goods at sea is Li Dacheng, and perhaps other Qing merchants will also digest a part, but this part is destined to be a very small quantity, and the high freight will stop the footsteps of the Qing merchants.

The road to import and export goods, Li Dacheng has already planned, either Tabutou or Jiaoao, and the goods want to be unloaded in Jiaozhou Mansion, there are only these two options.

The Germans in Jiaoao could not take on such a large number of goods, and Li Dacheng of Tabutou could easily take them, and it was not only six ships of timber that the Americans wanted to send to the Qing Dynasty, but also the backlog of goods on the east coast because of the plague, at least a few hundred ships, and the interests in this were too great for the Americans to fight for without reason.

In this matter, Britain and France are also on the same side as the Americans, and they also have a large amount of accumulated goods to deal with, especially in Britain, among the plague, the most affected are agricultural products and livestock products, during this period the price of agricultural products fell sharply, and a large amount of goods were accumulated in various colonies.

Among the agricultural products, except for cotton and cane sugar, which can be stored for a longer time, most of the grain crops are stored for only one or two years, and these agricultural products affected by the plague, whether Britain, France or other powers, do not want to let these things be sold locally, so a dumping market is needed.

The best dumping market is the colony, the Qing Dynasty in the Far East, multiplied the freight of goods, that is the best dumping market, the countries have accumulated too many goods during this time, the interests in it are too great, the Germans have stumbled the Americans in Jiaozhou Bay, and they may not stumble on other countries in the future, what are the Germans going to do? Preemptive dumping market?

Just because they blocked six American cargo ships carrying timber, the Germans experienced another political crisis after fighting the plague in Tianjin.

Britain and the United States are well aware of the blockade of Jiaoao by the Jiaolai defenders, and they even put forward at the negotiating table the idea that the Jiaolai defenders should expel the German troops in Jiaoao, and when political interests and economic interests are mixed, the greed, ruthlessness, and viciousness of the businessmen will also be undisguised.

The approach of the German army in Jiaoao was not only resisted by the great powers, but also caused a great reaction in Germany, and like the great powers, Germany also accumulated a large number of goods during this time, and they also had dumping intentions!

The real war has not yet begun! Under international and domestic pressure, the Jiaoao Governor's Office revoked the decree that foreign cargo ships were not allowed to enter Jiaozhou Bay, but this did not meet Li Dacheng's expectations, and only one decree was revoked, which was far from making up for the damage Lucas had inflicted on his feelings at the negotiating table.

Jiaoao side allowed, Tabutou side still does not unload, the Americans get off the ship to negotiate, Li Dacheng's spearhead is still directly aimed at the Jiaoao Governor's Palace, the thing is not that you say you will do it, you say you will not do it, Jiaoao side does not come up with a proper statement, let alone six American cargo ships, that is, cargo ships from other countries, Li Dacheng will not accept any of them!

The military determines politics, Li Dacheng does not have much right to speak, the economy determines politics, and he has more chips in his hand, what are the chips for, it is for himself to exchange for more benefits, without enough interests, how can he spit out easily? Until these benefits are obtained, the Germans will only be tormented. (To be continued.) (。 ))
