Governor Cohen knew that Liu Pei was threatening, but Liu Pei had such strength, and what he said that day could be the truth, so Governor Cohen could only say: "I can try, but I don't make any guarantees." ”

Liu Pei said: "Very good! Now I come to the third one. I will set up a trade zone near India, where you can trade with our merchants. But no warship is allowed to cross this trade zone, and taxes are to be paid to me. ”

Governor Cohen was thrilled when he heard this! What a benefit! What did they come to the East for? Isn't it just for the money? How nice it is to be able to trade freely now! Although the money came faster than when it was robbed, he could explain it to the East India Company! Now not only do I not have to die, but I may also make a great contribution to the company!

Governor Cohen immediately stood up eagerly and said, "Mr. Dragonlord, I fully agree with this!" When will we officially sign the agreement? ”

Liu Pei waved his hand and said, "Don't worry. These three are just the most basic conditions. There's so much more to talk about in detail. ”

Governor Cohen was still eager, "I can start talking about this now!" But I need you to hand over my employees to me! ”

Liu Pei waved his hand and said, "Mr. Cohen, you didn't understand what I meant. What I need is not an agreement between me and your East India Company, I need you and Spain, Portugal and England to sign this treaty! That's in my interest! ”

Governor Cohen stepped forward and said seriously, "Your Excellency the Dragon King, I don't think you need to contact anyone else at all. We at Dutch East India Company are fully capable of meeting your needs! ”

Liu Pei smiled and said, "Meet my needs? I don't think that's likely! Do you know how much silk I can provide each year? What is the amount of porcelain supplied each year? Haha, you have absolutely no idea! Let me tell you unequivocally, Mr. Cohen, that this is not enough to gather all the ships of your East India Company to carry them! ”

Governor Cohen denied it, saying, "This can't be! You don't

Know what a big market you're dealing with, and that's the whole of Europe! ”

Liu Pei got up and flipped through the table, took out a dossier and began to read it to Governor Cohen. The more Governor Cohen listened, the more chilled he became! Because above are the statistics of various countries in Europe! That's called a detail! The number of people, the main products, the tax situation and so on! These things are all found by Liu Pei in modern times, although they may not be very accurate, but they are roughly the same.

Putting down this dossier, Liu Pei picked up another dossier and read it to Governor Cohen. This dossier is the statistics and plan that Liu Pei has just made. It is full of Liu Pei's statistics on southern commerce, which are roughly estimated by large department stores. Liu Pei has slightly exaggerated these figures.

After the man, Liu Pei said: "Mr. Cohen, these are just the current production. Now I'm negotiating integration with them. If the integration is successful, I will have to make additional investments. Doubling production in the next three years is not a problem! Do you still think that the East India Company could afford to eat so much cargo? ”

Governor Cohen's face turned green at this time! According to Liu Pei, even if the East India Company transferred back all the ships, it would not be able to complete the transportation of these products! So he could only mutter, "Maybe, maybe we can think of a way!" ”

Liu Pei turned his head and said a few words to the guard, and the guard bowed out. Then he turned around and said, "Actually, I've found a way." That's what I just said about the Five-Power Treaty. As long as this treaty is signed, I will allocate quotas to several of you. At that time, the European continent will be the market of your five countries. Isn't that enough for you to earn? ”

Governor Cohen was greedy at this time, and was bent on monopolizing the business of the whole East. He chased Liu Pei and asked this and that, but Liu Pei just shouldn't. The two men were talking. The curtain was lifted and a man entered.

Governor Cohen looked up at the people who had entered, and both of them looked at each other for a moment. It turned out that it was Colonel Clark who entered the door. Colonel Clark was also stunned for a moment, then smiled, and said, "Hello Lord Governor! It's a pleasure to meet you! ”

At this time, Colonel Clark and Governor Cohen are together, and they seem to be completely polar! Governor Cohen was pale and in poor spirits because of the defeat in the battle. Colonel Clark, on the other hand, looked red and full of ambition.

It turned out that Colonel Clark was warmly welcomed by the Penghu businessmen after arriving in Penghu! For these merchants, it is very gratifying to be able to open up a new trade route. So they took out samples of various cargoes and left them to Colonel Clark's choice.

And Colonel Clark lived up to expectations, and he did not hesitate to take out all the funds to purchase various goods. After purchasing the goods, he sent the fleet away, and he stayed as an envoy to wait for Liu Pei's summons.

At this time, Liu Pei was busy raising military expenses, and he did not see him for a short time, so Colonel Clark took a few attachés to enjoy free hospitality. Because Colonel Clark was born in England, a country that only has fried fish and fried potatoes, he felt that he was living in paradise in Penghu! It's a bit of a joy to be around!

Later, Liu Pei summoned him before setting out on the expedition. When Colonel Clark heard that Liu Pei was going to attack the Dutch, he immediately expressed his willingness to participate in the whole battle as an observer. And he thinks that he is the one who knows these hostile countries best and can give Liu Pei wise advice.

But Liu Pei didn't want his armament to leak out, so he rejected him cleanly. However, Colonel Clark was not discouraged, and he directly asked Liu Pei for trade. Liu Pei agreed to this.

Liu Peike knows how great the potential of this country is! How much will it promote their own business! But at the same time, Liu Pei also thought of one thing, that is, this time the combined fleet of Spain and the Netherlands has appeared, so what will happen if all European countries unite to put pressure on him?

So Liu Pei simply figured out the matter of the "Five-Power Treaty"! In this way, the treaty can be used to temporarily bind the countries and meet the trade needs of each country, so that they will not unite to attack themselves. Trade quotas can also be used to sow discord. At the same time, you can also get a huge inflow of silver.
