This is probably similar to the invincible scene of the liberation army of the Celestial Empire in later generations, countless people shouted that even Hong Kong was liberated by the way, but it was just a gesture, but the bigwigs in the court were far-sighted and left this place as a window to connect with the Western world, and it turned out that this move, at that time, was very wise.

In the current imperial court, there is probably no such idea, but from this time the military department wants to buy cannons, the household department directly thinks of this, and you can also faintly see a little clue, if you want to buy and sell Western goods, on your own territory, it is better to have such a place, than to buy it on other people's territory. The existence of the City Lift Division is not to do this.

instructed the county order two sentences, so that he must not leak his identity, Gao Gan served tea to send guests, identity leakage is not a matter of fact, the main thing is that he is afraid of trouble, it is conceivable, showing the banner of watching the wind, I don't know how many local officials want to come to visit, mixed face or something, he Gao Han came here to do business, and he didn't come to play the autumn breeze to receive gifts, I really didn't have this idle time.

"Just now, Lord Qin said that this firearm was bought through you!" Summoned Olivia, Gao Han asked politely: "It seems that this firearm is not easy to come by?" ”

"This kind of short fire, the Victor Chamber of Commerce generally doesn't sell it at all!" Olivia said triumphantly: "If it is a long fire gun, they still have some stock, but after rummaging through their warehouse, they can also find more than a dozen new short fire guns, this is still that Lord Qin lost his temper, so the Victor Chamber of Commerce had to sell it, that's it, they didn't charge less money!" ”

Thinking of this, Olivia pursed her lips, those vampires in the Chamber of Commerce are really in the eyes of money, don't you know that this Lord Qin is the supreme official who manages this place, so they don't give face, they are not afraid of retaliation?

Gao Han really became interested in this Victor Chamber of Commerce.

He saw with his own eyes that in this Haojing Ao, the symbolic significance of the servants in Xiangshan County to maintain law and order is greater than the practical significance, and it is this Victor Chamber of Commerce who really maintains law and order here.

Moreover, if nothing else, in the future, the imperial court will purchase this Xiyi cannon for Liaodong, but I am afraid that it will have to start with this chamber of commerce, looking at this posture, this chamber of commerce has basically monopolized Haojingao's foreign trade. As for the City Division, he felt that those people were only afraid that they really had no say in this trade matter except for collecting taxes and filling their pockets by the way.

"What do you mean by not selling this short firecracker? So what are they selling, buying and selling ordnance, it is illegal to buy and sell in Daming, don't they know? ”

"They can't make this short firearm at all, they are all transported from our kingdom thousands of miles away, as for the long firearm, it's not so troublesome, now here, it is said that there is a firearms factory, which can produce some long firearms, so naturally they have to sell it!"

Olivia said stupidly, opening a firearms factory in the land of the East, building ordnance and selling it for money, fools know how big a profit this is, not to mention monopolizing the trade rights between the kingdom and the Eastern Empire, such a good thing, why is it all occupied by these vampires, if she was born thirty years early, no, twenty years early, Olivia feels that she can catch up with this feast, but unfortunately, now, she can't even enter the door of this banquet.

"And the firearms factory!" The corners of Gao Han's mouth curled slightly, and he muttered softly: "I don't know if I can build a cannon!?" ”

"How is this possible!" Olivia thinks that sometimes it is really hard to talk to this nobleman, making muskets and cannons, is that the same thing, these people just take it for granted, this firearms factory in Haojing Ao, can repair some damaged cannons, then it is up to the sky, make cannons, that is not to think about it.

Moreover, it is impossible for the craftsmen who have really mastered the technology of making artillery to come to the East at all, and the kingdom must look at this kind of talent to death.

The short conversation didn't last long, however, Gao Han still expressed his appreciation for Olivia's subjective initiative, of course, this appreciation can be measured, and when Olivia walked out with a five-tael gold barley, he still had to admire the generosity of these Orientals.

Wan Ziliang of Guangzhou Jinyi Wei Baihu arrived the day after Qin Yi's visit, he went straight to the restaurant to ask to see, and Gao Han also met him, however, treating this Baihu, Gao Han's attitude was not as amiable as Qin Yi's, and he dealt with a few words lightly, encouraging him to be attentive in his errand, even if he finished the formalities.

Of course, Wan Ziliang didn't dare to think so, no matter why the commander came here on business, how could he do it without a local person as a guide, and he, a hundred households in brocade clothes, was the most suitable to be a guide. Anyway, he didn't dare to say that he would listen to it in the Four Seas Restaurant, so he found a place to live nearby, waiting for Shangguan's summons at any time.

Victor Chamber of Commerce, Gao Han must be going to visit, but since he wants to keep a low profile, it is impossible, as soon as he goes out, his own entourage, the county lord and the county lord's entourage, the people of Guangzhou Jinyiwei, plus Olivia and others, thirty or twenty people, really not much, going to the Chamber of Commerce, it doesn't look like it's going to visit, but it seems to be going to make trouble.

Of course, there are people on the official side, and no one thinks they are causing trouble, especially Qin Yi, although he has only been in this office for more than two years, but he has always had a tough attitude towards these people, and when he first took office, he directly brought people here to arrest a few criminals, so he still has a deep impression of this county master, the people of the Victor Chamber of Commerce.

The location of the Chamber of Commerce is probably the most magnificent building in this Haojing Ao, covering an area of almost four or five acres, a fairly magnificent church in the middle, surrounded by a fence, at the gate, there are even a few Portuguese soldiers with weapons to guard, Gao Han saw this pattern, it is obvious that this place is almost built according to the pattern of a military fortress, if they are happy, relying on the church, this place can become a strong fortress at any time.

Churches, living quarters, firearms factories (blacksmith shops), warehouses, plus heavily armed soldiers, and even barracks, how Gao Han looks and how dazzling.

The Chamber of Commerce had already gotten the news, and when they arrived at the door of the Chamber of Commerce, there were already people waiting for them at the door, Gao Han looked at it, and there was nothing to say, he didn't believe in this Victor Chamber of Commerce, just this eight-character Julio, a deacon, I think it was to see Olivia in his own line, and send someone who had dealt with them to come and talk better.

"I don't have any intention, I just came to take a look, what's the matter, where I am Xiangshan, is there a place where I Qin Yi can't come?"

It was very arrogant and rude to answer the other party's inquiry, Qin Yi's attitude, but Gao Han suddenly his evaluation was a lot higher, looking at this person's humility in front of him before, he thought that this was a spineless official.

Deacon Hu was obviously accustomed to Qin Yi's attitude, and replied with a smile: "Of course, the Victor Chamber of Commerce welcomes the honorable Lord Qin here as a guest at any time, this is a guest that we usually can't invite, but unfortunately, if you notify me before you come, the president of our Chamber of Commerce, even if he is far away in Manraka, will have to come back here to wait for you!" ”

"Say less pretty things!" Qin Yi waved his hand impatiently: "Your president, I have been in office for more than two years, and I haven't seen him once, and I said that I will come back immediately, is this your manager here today, or the vice president, what is it called......

"This week, I'm handling these chores at the Chamber of Commerce!" Leo smiled and replied, "Please come with me!" ”

Gao Han didn't care about following Qin Yi, and as they entered the cathedral, he just said that if he came to this Victor Chamber of Commerce, Qin Yi would immediately arrange it, in fact, Qin Yi still didn't know what Gao Han wanted to do!

The church is made of bluestone, although it seems that the internal space of the church is not very large, but Gao Han estimated that the amount of work is not enough to be completed in three or five years, especially here, when the labor and materials are not particularly sufficient, I am afraid that there will be no ten or eight years, and I don't want to complete it at all.

Probably because it was not a Sunday, there were not many people in the church, and a group of people, especially a group of yellow-skinned people, walked in from the outside, and a few people in the church who bowed their heads and prayed raised their heads and looked very surprised.

Gao Han seems to have the potential to be a wind watcher, that is, to see more, listen more, and talk less.
