Ye Kai also picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and then asked slowly: "Mr. Hastings, I would like to ask, in what capacity did you come to this remote and hot place?" ”

"What identity?" Warren. Hastings asked suspiciously, and then said with a little pride: "Of course, in the capacity of vice chairman of the British East India Company, he was sent by His Majesty King George III of Great Britain and the board of directors of the British East India Company!" ”

"But what you are doing now is not what the directors of the British East India Company wanted, and from my point of view, you are more like the Viceroy of British India appointed by His Majesty George III than the Vice-Chairman of the East India Company, nor the Governor of Fort William!"

Ye Kai shook his head and continued: "I think the British East India Company's identity is special, but it is still essentially a licensed commercial company.

Companies need profits, no matter how much territory you have opened up in India, no matter how many indigenous people you have conquered, no profit is a failure.

I think that although your Excellency won the war with the Mysore people and the Maratharao, it was a complete failure in business! As the company's top employee in India, you can't bring profits to the company, and that's fatal! ”

"I knew it! I knew it! Those who are short-sighted will never know how to run a good company, and my decision in India is absolutely correct, only by expanding the territory under the jurisdiction of the company, only by conquering more local natives, will Great Britain's rule in India be secured! ”

Warren. Hastings suddenly became furious, and he took off his shirt and spun around the office restlessly.

"I agree with you, Mr. Hastings, but the reality is that you are the Vice-Chairman of the British East India Company, not the Vice-Chancellor of the Kingdom of Great Britain.

All your power comes from the East India Company, not from the appointment of the king or the prime minister, and you must put the interests of the company first, or you will lose it all! ”

Looking at the angry Hastings, Ye Kai's heart relaxed a little, he was not afraid that this guy would be angry, he was afraid that he would be indifferent, because the anger just knew that Ye Kai's judgment was correct.

"Jenna! My daughter, you go back to London at once, and go to Anne. Mrs. Speek, go and explain my plans in Bengal and the whole of the Indian continent.

If you can, ask her to arrange a meeting with Lord North, don't be afraid to spend money, even if it's tens of thousands of pounds, I need their support, only with their support, I can fulfill my ideals, and I can bring the whole Indian continent into the arms of Great Britain! ”

After the rage, Hastings calmed down a little, he picked up the discarded shirt and slowly put it back on, saying to Jenna as he wore it.

"Okay, father, I'll go back to London, but I'm not sure if I'll see Lord North, for I've been in the East for too long, and I'm not sure if Lady Anne's love for me can be maintained until now!" Jenna also nodded with a serious face, but her tone trembled slightly.

"I'm sorry, Zinedin, I wanted to entertain you in Calcutta, but now it looks like we're going to have to leave right away!" Jenna Niu looked at Ye Kai, who was still sitting on the sofa, and said a little embarrassed.

Her father, Hastings, didn't even look at Ye Kai, and when he had nothing to do, he met a scholar from the East, which could show his approachability and cultural accomplishment as the governor of Hastings, but at this moment, there was no yellow seed in his eyes.

Ye Kai sat in his seat and didn't move, there was a trace of anger in his eyes, he wanted to get up and leave, Lao Tzu didn't care, just let you continue to go back to the UK to experience ten years of continuous trial like in history, and I won't wait.

But the reality bent Ye Kai's waist, he needed the support of this arrogant white skin, he couldn't just go to Europe as an envoy of Guangnan Kingdom.

He needs an aura, and he needs to make Europeans look up to him or even look up to his aura, and helping Hastings get away with it is the quickest way to go.

At this time, Hastings, who was on the Indian side, only felt the danger, and if he could return to London now, Hastings would find that he was almost a figure who was about to enter the grave, and it would definitely impress everyone if he could help him get rid of his crimes!

"Lord North can't help you, Mr. Hastings, don't you know that he has lost the trust of His Majesty George III?

Don't you know that it was he who was with Charles. Did Fox's India bill push you into this political abyss? You're even going to him for help? I say it's incomprehensible! ”

Warren must be helped. Hastings, but it doesn't mean that Ye Kai needs to continue to have a good face for this arrogant white skin.

He made up his mind in his heart if he had said these words after Warren. Hastings still didn't know what to do, and he wouldn't say a word more.

The air seemed to freeze, and Jenna's eyes flashed with surprise, since she had heard Ye Kai's performance in Chonbour, she felt that this yellow person was definitely not simple.

Warren. Hastings was indeed frightened, not to Ye Kai, even the Britons in India, there are very few who can sort out the relationship between these politicians in Britain.

Because as long as it is a little mixed locally or in North America, few people are willing to come to India, which is hot in the 40s.

Moreover, in this era when there were no transatlantic telephones and no telegraphs, it was very difficult to obtain news from Britain in India, thousands of miles away.

Even the news that Hastings got about London was brought by a merchant ship a month earlier, and this merchant ship had been at sea for more than half a year.

So all he knew was that Lord Temple, who was supported by the king, was forced to resign and Lord North and his ally James. Fox is teaming up for a general election and hopes to be in power again.

Their opponent is Pete, who is only twenty-three years old, so Lord North has a good chance of winning the election again.

"How do you know that? It can't be, there can't be anyone in the East who knows what happened in London before I do! ”

Warren, Hastings shook his head slightly, muttering words of disbelief in his mouth!

The corners of Ye Kai's mouth pulled up a strange smile, and he waited coldly for Hastings, "The reason why you don't believe it is because you have too little knowledge, to tell you, why I, an Oriental, can know so many European things, it is because of my other identity, I am a powerful astrologer, my family is a family of astrologers that has been passed down for thousands of years, when my ancestors used the power of the stars to see through the fog of this world, your ancestors were still picking up shells to eat by the Xiangnong River!" ”

"Astrologer? The power of the stars? Ye Kai was holding back his laughter when Warren. Hastings was even more confused.

Don't be in the eighteenth century, that is, in the twenty-first century, there are many people who believe in the existence of mysterious powers on the earth. Hastings has seen it no less, but in the end, it can almost be proven that he is lying.

But for Ye Kai, he hesitated, because Ye Kai had just mentioned a place, and that place had always been the last memory he wanted to mention in his heart!
