Chapter 171: Selling weapons to the Zheng family

The sudden arrival of the Zheng family has caused Hong Kong's overseas consulates, which originally regarded the suppression of grain prices as a top priority, to shift their focus, and according to the current situation, grain merchants are very smart, and prices are gradually declining, and there is no sign of rising.

This shows that they accepted Australia's proposal and steadily raised the price before the price increase, which is the best, after all, they still need to cooperate in the future, and Li Mengshi does not want to fall out with the grain merchants of Guangxi and Guangxi because of this.

With the decline in grain prices in Liangguang and Guangzhou, grain prices in neighboring places also fell, which played a key role in stabilizing the situation in the south at the end of the Ming Dynasty.

For this reason, Shen Youlong also specially hosted a banquet in the house to entertain Wu Zhengdao and Li Mengshi, although it is a bit incredible for a woman to be an official in the eyes of the Ming people, but after all, Australia is a foreign country, and it can't be controlled so much.

After the banquet, Wu Zhengdao and Li Mengshi went to check the current Australian holding industry, and they didn't set off to rush back until they received the news from Zheng Sen.

Because it is an old acquaintance who came, the implementation of the pro-Australian warlords needs to be discussed, and one more person is one more proposal.

Fu Helin, who originally planned to go to Luzon to receive him, also deliberately adjusted his date back for a few days, the purpose of which was to meet Zheng Sen.

For historical celebrities, there is always a special feeling for the traversal, not worship, but just wanting to see if it is the same as what is described in the textbook.

When they see it, they will be disappointed, after all, it is a little different from what they imagined.

Let's take Fu and Lin as an example, a hero like Zheng Sen should have a stubble on his face, but what he saw was a boy with a red face and white teeth, isn't this a typical little fresh meat in later generations.

I really wonder if there is a mistake in the history textbook, or if the Zheng family sent someone else, but the people from the Homeland Security Bureau said that it would not be wrong, this person was Zheng Sen, and the eldest son of the Zheng family would not be wrong.

And ah, this person is still very studious, and he is new to everything, he didn't follow his uncle Zheng Hongkui to talk to Yang Yuzhou, but followed Fu Helin to the barracks.

Maybe it's his love for the barracks, and he gets excited as soon as he gets there, the Australian barracks don't have any horses, it's just a big schoolyard, and it's a big schoolyard with some training facilities in it, and these things are very strange.

These are all the equipment that my Australian soldiers train on weekdays, is Zheng Gongzi interested?

Fu Helin pointed to the ladder in front of him and asked, in fact, he had already seen from his heart that he was interested, after all, he was too young to hide anything.

Recruit a soldier and give Zheng Sen a demonstration, he can see the doorway inside, if the soldiers have been practicing like this for a long time, it will have a certain effect when they climb the siege city.

This Australian method of training sergeants is really different, and Zheng Sen, who was silent, wrote it down in his small notebook again, and he wanted to write it down well and use it on Zheng Jiajun when he went back.

Fu Helin took him to visit the living quarters in the barracks, as well as the entertainment area, as well as the training grounds, which simply opened Zheng Sen's eyes.

Not only is the barracks accommodation of the soldiers very high, not to mention the food is not bad, and the soldiers' rotation system, Zheng Sen only roughly calculated a bill, if the army is formed according to the specifications of the Australians, I am afraid it will cost a lot of money.

Perhaps this is one of the main reasons why the Australian soldiers are so strong, not only focusing on the training of the troops' own physical abilities, but also related to their lives, which seems to be done by no brother dynasty in history.

It can only be said that the Australian is too tyrant, and the method of cultivating soldiers is not something that ordinary people can learn, even if the Zheng family has the profits from maritime trade, they don't dare to play like this, they can only engage in such an elite, if tens of thousands of people are all doing this, the Zheng family will go bankrupt.

Zheng Sen already had an unfeasible strategy in his mind, ready to draw an end, originally he planned to learn it, but now it seems that it can only be done in a small army.

Fu Helin also took him to the shooting range to finish a few guns, there is no man who does not love guns, Zheng Sen is no exception, his love for guns is the same as his love for a good knife and a good sword.

And he also has a Dutch flintlock pistol in his hand, but not as good as the Australian, that's for sure, he only knows it with one shot.

Another reason why he came this time was to buy weapons, the Australians exported weapons to Spain, and the main purpose of the Zheng family this time was to buy some weapons and ammunition.

Whether Australians can sell weapons to the Zheng family still needs their uncle to negotiate with them, and he himself needs to see more and know more Australians, which will be of some benefit to him in the future.

What he saw in the barracks made Zheng Sen understand more deeply that it was impossible for the Zheng family army and even the Ming army to compare with the Australian army, and the combat effectiveness of the Australian army would not be much lower just by relying on that training method.

So he plans to truthfully report the situation to his father Zheng Zhilong after he goes back, the Australian Navy is not only strong, but the army is also strong, and if he can't avoid fighting with him, he will definitely not fight.

After all, in Zheng Sen's view, the training methods and combat modes of the Australians are all matched, which may be their long-term summed up experience, and it is a new set of combat strategies.

I don't know how the negotiations between my uncle and the Australians were, Zheng Sen couldn't help but look out the door.

At this time, Zheng Hongkui was negotiating with Yang Yuzhou, "Lord Yang, if we can, we are willing to give up some of the interests of Dayuan Island and Penghu, and the Australian Navy can dock and replenish in these places." ”

This is the condition given by the Zheng family, but it seems that the temptation is not too big, the forces in this place are complex, and the three forces are staggered, and if Australia is intervening, it will be even more chaotic.

But it can be seen that the Zheng family is also well thought out, and it is also beneficial for them to pull the Australians in and stir up the situation here like a-stirring stick.

As long as Australia accepts their advice, it will make Spain suspicious, but Australia is not so stupid.

What Australia needs is to reconcile their relations, and other things are not in his consideration at all, so it is not possible to use the Australians against Spain.

However, since the other party has this plan, and Australia is willing to be a local mediator, the natural conditions are still acceptable.

"Lord Zheng, we can agree to your conditions, but we can't provide you with such weapons, after all, the production is limited, so please forgive me."

Hearing this, Zheng Hongkui was relieved, "The specific amount is still negotiable." ”
