Chapter 589: Flattery

The finance minister of the starting point city is Wang Pengyuan, and Wang Pengyuan is also the general logistics of the starting point city.

Wang Yue explained: "The biggest role of banks is not to make money, but to help the country develop industry and commerce, and play an economic leverage. As a money-issuing bank, profit has never been the primary goal. ”

Several of you here couldn't sit still, and they accidentally sat down to eat with the richest people in the world other than the Ming Emperor, which was really scary. In fact, according to their understanding, the emperor is the richest, which is really wrong. Emperor Daming has always been poor, and few are really rich.

At this time, Mr. Robben, the former governor, suddenly had a brain open, and felt that the minister of the Ming Kingdom in front of him was a very good talker, so why not try it so that he could return to the Netherlands with dignity? With this thought, Robben's mind grew like a weed, and he coughed and pressed his emotions: "Your Excellency, as a defeated person, you are also your prisoner. I have a little request, I don't know if I can speak? ”

Wang Yue said very simply: "Please speak!" ”

"It is a fact that the Kingdom of the Netherlands was defeated. We have also paid the price, but I believe that maintaining normal trade relations between the two countries is a good move for both countries. Robben said.

Wang Yue's English is becoming more and more proficient, although it is more difficult, but he can understand the meaning. He paused, slowly put down the teacup in his hand, squinted his eyes and thought for a while before saying, "I can't give you an answer to this matter immediately, I need to think about it." ”

In fact, Wang Yue did not loot the Dutch in order to allow the Dutch to continue their trading activities, and this behavior was seen as a tolerant act by Lord Wang Shaobao.

The current situation in Europe. The Anglo-Dutch war was imminent, and it was necessary to properly strengthen the war potential of the Netherlands. Let the Anglo-Dutch war be fought more fiercely, and even let France, which was later involved in the war, encounter stronger resistance, then the more blood will be shed by Europeans, and Wang Yue will certainly like to hear it.

"It should be, it should be." Robben saw that he didn't say anything to death, and his heart was ecstatic, it seemed that the plan to find a random place to hide and become a rich man could be canceled. This young master of the Ming Empire still has a clear understanding of European trade.

The attitude of the Ming court towards foreign trade has always been like charity, and Europeans know about the Ming Dynasty, which is closed off from the country, and Lord Wang Shaobao seems to be a more enlightened minister of the court.

Wang Yue stood up and said, "Thank you Mr. Robben for the morning tea, it's not too early, and it's time for me to leave." You can talk to Mr. Schohzin, who is now the Trade Counsellor, for more details. ”

At this time, Judy, who had not spoken, also got up and said, "Your Excellency, can I visit your barracks?" ”

Wang Yue was stunned for a moment, are European women in this era already so unrestrained, why didn't they see this in Lisa? Seeing Judy's nervous appearance, Wang Yue was relieved, and he even saw the encouragement in the eyes of Judy's father, Davis.

"Welcome to visit!" Wang Yue didn't think that a little girl's visit would make the Dutch turn the tables, otherwise the entire Tiance Army should be completely reconsidered.

Wang Yue left, looking at the backs of the two, Robben and Davis exchanged glances, it seems that this is the purpose of Robben's treat today, especially Davis has a sense of catching a golden beetle.

Schozin saw all their expressions in his eyes, and couldn't help but sneer secretly, although this Judy's beauty was good at her daughter Lisa, but he knew better about the young lady's cautious attitude in this matter.

"Gentlemen, let's talk about trade." Schozin said lightly.

"Oh, of course, I'll have to ask Mr. Schoutin to take care of me later." Schozin was no longer the same East India Company employee, and he had already hugged his thicker thighs two years ago, Robben and Davis said politely.

Back at the camp in the square, Wang Yue met the patriarchs of the three overseas Chinese in Batavia, and the heads of the Huang, Li, and Lin families came to visit. Most of the overseas Chinese are from Fujian, and the surname Lin is the largest surname in Fujian, accounting for more than one-third of Fujian, so the surname Lin is also a big surname among overseas Chinese.

Judy encountered Li Xuezhu, who had a bad face, and the calcium carbide flashed between her eyes. Zhang Ziyun and Hexiang's status is unshakable, and their position as the third child has been stabilized, but who knows that Princess Kunxing is going to be demoted to the fourth child again. And Lisa and Wang Yue have known each other for a long time, and Dong Xiaowan can't cure it, can't she cure this new ghost woman?

Wang Yue said to Li Xuezhu: "Take her around, I have something to deal with." ”

The place where the three patriarchs were received was in the military tent in the square, and the Golden Dragon RV was too small to entertain guests. Wang Yue was very enthusiastic, invited them to sit down, ordered tea, and after some greetings, Li Yongfu, the eldest head of the Li family, said: "Lord Shaobao, it is really inappropriate for you to live here, the grass people have a bad room, if the adults do not dislike it, they are willing to serve it." ”

Without waiting for Wang Yue to answer, Patriarch Lin had already spoken: "Since it's a burrow, don't take it out." Adults, villains have a manor, just in the city, the scenery is quite good. Willing to dedicate to adults. ”

The only patriarch Huang who did not express his position on this issue kept smiling at their performance of competing for flattery.

Wang Yue smiled and waved his hand and said: "I don't pay much attention to living as a person, and the kindness of the two of you is understood." He still thinks it's quite comfortable to live in the Golden Dragon RV, and if he can't do it, he can go back to the landing ship.

Patriarch Huang smiled at this time: "This visit, the grass people have one meaning, the three families have joined forces to prepare a banquet, and invite Lord Shaobao to get together." We overseas travelers are forced to come here by life, oppressed by ghosts on the one hand, and squeezed by natives on the other. Although it is a bit of a net worth, it is precarious. Now that the king has come, the plough court sweeps the holes, and the state looks down on the wind, and the waist pole of our people is hard. Everyone doesn't know how to repay you, a little heart, please be sure to appreciate your face. ”

Wang Yue nodded and said, "Okay, this matter is settled, I will definitely go in the evening." ”

The three of them spoke again, and then they left satisfied. After leaving the barracks, the three exchanged glances with each other, nodded in unison, and after getting into a car, Patriarch Huang said: "This young security lord is difficult to figure out. However, looking at the performance of the army after entering the city, it is not difficult to see that he is not greedy for money. It's just that I don't know why he welcomed the Dutch to stay, gave them citizenship and recruited the original Dutch mercenaries, it was really incomprehensible. ”
