The last time Magalny asked Colin for help, the procedure was not right, but at that time Colin was the only aid available, and he couldn't care so much, in this case, he still asked Colin to ask Zhou Lang's consent first, because the armed forces controlled by Colin were nominally mercenaries under the China (East India) Company.

This time Colin was gone, and Magalny directly asked Zhou Lang for help, which was not presumptuous, because the two had already met, and unlike last time, they had no contact, and could only communicate through Colin. The two got acquainted in Guangzhou and got along quite happily, so Magalny asked for help in the situation of asking for help, and there was still a chance to get Zhou Lang's help.

However, unlike last time, this time Zhou Lang took the absolute initiative, because last time Zhou Lang agreed or not, Colin would send troops, and this time, Zhou Lang did not agree, Magalny could not transfer Zhou Lang's army, and the more than 1,000 Indian mercenaries may be able to pull some of them away through special methods, with the support of Fischer and several senior officers, or even take them all, but what role can 1,500 people play.

Therefore, Zhou Lang's status suddenly became detached, became hot, and became a strange commodity, if he helped, then Guangzhou would once again face the dilemma of being besieged, if he did not help, Magalny would not be able to put pressure on the Guangzhou government.

In this case, Zhou Lang did not show his attitude, but only sent a man to Guangzhou with Magalny's rescue ship.

With his current dominant position, if Zhou Lang doesn't know how to make good use of it in exchange for benefits, he will live in vain.

Therefore, the people he sent were not to help Magalny, nor to help the Guangzhou government, but to gain benefits for themselves.

The one sent was just a nobody, and a young scholar recruited by Wang Fuqian last time was only seventeen years old. The family fell in the middle of the road, and took refuge in Zhou Lang, named Lin Di.

Let him go to Guangzhou, just to deliver a message, by the way, to gain a long knowledge and increase his experience.

Lin Di arrived in Guangzhou, and after landing on the shore, with the help of the East India Company, he found a person, who was Wei Lianli, who was responsible for opening up the supply of goods in Guangzhou during this time.

At this time, there were only threats between Magalny and the Guangzhou government, and they had not yet torn their faces and had not officially taken action.

Therefore, the activities of the East India Company in Guangzhou were still going well. Wei Lianli is not difficult to find, he is mixed in the thirteen lines these days, the chief businessman Cai Shiwen, Pan Qiguan, and Wu Bingjun, who has not been established for a few years, but has expanded rapidly, are the objects of Wei Lianli's visit.

It's a pity that he has not been able to open the door, these big merchants have their own fixed trade objects, such a large customer as the East India Company is ordered half a year in advance, and even a one-time deposit of hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to a big merchant like Pan Qiguan, before the arrival of the wind season, they have reserved a considerable amount of goods, and after the merchant ship docks, they will begin to ship goods in order. The goods of these big merchants are not worried about selling at all, they have already been set out, Wei Lian is ideal, and no one is willing to agree.

There is no way for the government to do it.

Wei Lianli was sent to Guangzhou by Zhou Lang, he was very scared at first and refused to come, he felt that he would die when he came to Guangzhou, and the government had to catch him too late, but when he arrived in Guangzhou, he found that the people in the government were also afraid of him.

After the siege of Guangzhou last time, the major yamen in Guangzhou basically knew Wei Lianli, and knew that Zhou Lang was the No. 1 Haikou standing behind him.

Wei Lianli came, maybe some officials knew, some officials didn't, but no one was willing to deal with him, not because they were afraid of him, but because they didn't want to get into trouble. Dealing with Wei Lianli is a trivial matter, but it is not so easy to deal with Zhou Lang, who is a fierce god and evil, who can stand it if he comes to Guangzhou to make a fuss!

So the people in the government directly ignored Wei Lianli, no matter what level of official he went to see, no matter how much money he stuffed, no matter how much relationship he trusted, no one was willing to see him, the only Cai Shiwen he could see didn't mean to come to the government at all, at best, Cai Shiwen was just an errand for the official, to put it mildly, he was just a dog.

But Wei Lianli was very sure that his request could reach the ears of the government through Cai Shiwen, but it was ignored all the time.

Wei Lianli has no way to do this, the capital in his hand is not hard enough, and if he can't open the situation, he can't open the situation. Zhou Lang's prestige is very great, but sometimes others are afraid that you may not be able to do things, and you can only eat if others need you.

No, Zhou Lang sent Wei Lian what he wanted and what others needed.

After receiving Zhou Lang's letter and some guidance, Wei Lianli immediately understood what he had to do, and even knew that he could do more than Zhou Lang asked for.

He immediately went to meet with Magalny in the open to discuss the dispatch of troops!

Magalny's current situation is similar to Wei Lianli's, he is a person who the government doesn't want to see and doesn't want to mess with.

Wei Lianli entered and exited the East India Company's merchant hall in the Thirteenth Row with great fanfare.

It would be a big mistake to say that no one paid attention to his actions, since Magalny threatened to blockade Guangzhou, although the government decided to dry Magalny, but they were still quite worried about his threat, but they knew that Magalny could only say that he had no guy in his hands. They also know that the Yingyi behind Magalni are very cruel, but they are thousands of miles away, and if they come from India, it will be next year at the earliest. Magalny has only one ship in Guangzhou, and threats are of little use.

Wei Lianli didn't want to deal with them either, because behind this guy stood an equally ferocious Dahai Kou, and it was close at hand.

The two men, whom they didn't want to deal with, came together, and the Guangzhou officials found that they had to deal with them. Because Magalny, who threatened them, has no ability to make trouble in Guangzhou, they can dry it out, and Wei Lianli, who has not threatened them, has the ability to make trouble, so now that the two of them are together, they can't dry it.

Cai Shiwen, a dog-legged, immediately came to the door to inquire about the news.

Wei Lianli did not hide it, but told him that the British envoy had asked for help from the Chinese East India Company (East India Company), and that the two sides were discussing the matter of sending troops to Guangzhou.

Cai Shiwen and the Guangzhou government also confirmed from other channels that the news also spread in the circle of foreigners, because the people of the East India Company did not deliberately keep it secret, and Magalny even once again attracted representatives of other countries, such as the Danish Asian Company, the Swedish East India Company, the Dutch East India Company and other European countries' representatives in Guangzhou. Even France, which was already at war with Britain in Europe, and the merchant houses of the United States, an emerging country that the British despised so much, moved around many times to lobby for the fact that forcing the Canton government to expand trade was a matter of good interest to all countries, and everyone should work together, even if their home country was at war in Europe, they could temporarily unite.

It is a pity that not every foreign business representative has the high diplomatic consciousness of Magalny, so they have no secrecy, and they have no sense of secrecy, and they wish that the British would offend the Chinese government again, so that the British trade this year should be in vain, and other countries can have an extra share.

Therefore, the news was easily confirmed repeatedly from the mouths of French, American, Dutch, Danish, Swiss and other foreign businessmen, and the Guangzhou government was convinced that the British were really contacting Zhou Lang's Haikou again, and were ready to take action against Guangzhou.

The government was angry and frightened, and the last time Colin sent troops to besiege Guangzhou, in the end, with the joint efforts of all officials, barely covered up the past. Because of the killing of the thief chief Colin and the killing and wounding of many Yi soldiers, and many rebel bandits from Yi (the slaughtered Tan people), Sheng Zhu, the superintendent of the Guangdong Customs, was also rewarded by the Qianlong Emperor, who evaluated him for his loyalty and bravery, and his ability to do things, and rewarded him with a jade ruyi.

But everyone knows that the situation last time was very dangerous, it can be said that the people's grievances were boiling, if it weren't for the transaction between Sheng Zhu and Zhou Lang and the corpses of those Yi people, they might not be able to deal with the past so easily, after all, they extorted almost all the merchants in the city, these merchants have hands and eyes, who knows if they have anything to do with the big officials in the court, if the unenlightened official stabbed the emperor, Changlin and Sheng Zhu These magnates are afraid that they can't afford it.

Fortunately, there are those corpses of the Yi people as evidence, and the looting behavior in Guangzhou has been portrayed as the righteous businessmen in Guangzhou enthusiastically raising military salaries to help the court suppress the thieves, the officers and soldiers are loyal and brave, and live up to expectations, and finally behead the thief chieftain and repel the thief soldiers.

The last time was a perfect obscuration of the past, so what about again? Who dares to guarantee that they can still cover up the past and get Qianlong's commendation, even if they can do it, these officials who are better than less are unwilling to toss.

Then it becomes very necessary to stabilize Zhou Lang, the big man, at least not to let Zhou Lang collude with Yingyi, although the officials more or less know that Zhou Lang made his fortune from the ground of Yingyi, and the two of them seem to be wearing a pair of pants, but they still sent Cai Shiwen to give it a try, what if it happens?

Cai Shiwen visited Wei Lianli again.

Wei Lianli ran the train with his mouth full and told Cai Shiwen that if the adults in Guangzhou are willing to give face to his family, of course his family is more willing to be friends with the adults in Guangzhou, and he can't go to hook up with the Yiren, it's too shabby to lose that person.

It's just that the adults have always been noble and cold, and they can't climb high, so they can only go to play with the Yiren.

Now that the adults in Guangzhou have changed their attitudes, of course the marshal can not cooperate with the Yiren, and the cooperation that Wei Lianli proposed to Cai Shiwen and other businessmen before should not be a problem now, but Wei Lianli still wants to change the way of cooperation.

At this time, Cai Shiwen did not refuse to accept Wei Lianli's request, and his attitude was so sincere, Wei Lianli immediately said that he could guarantee not to cooperate with Yingyi.

Cai Shiwen wanted a letter of guarantee, Wei Lianli directly took Cai Shiwen to visit Magarny in the East India Company's commercial hall, and told Magarny in front of Cai Shiwen that his family regretted that he could not interfere in the conflict between the English Kingdom and the Guangdong Provincial Government of the Great Qing State.

Zhou Lang even announced a policy of non-interference to Magalny through Wei Lianli.

The reason is very simple, Zhou Lang needs to take advantage of this conflict to get two benefits.

The first is to obtain a stable supply of goods.

Zhou Lang's original intention was to reach a stable supply agreement with the thirteen merchants, but Wei Lianli gave a little play to the spirit he understood on the basis of Zhou Lang's request.

Wei Lianli not only obtained a stable supply guarantee from the merchants of the Thirteen Lines through Cai Shiwen and the government forces behind him, but he also asked Cai Shiwen to allow them to join the Thirteen Lines directly!
