"But we have lost the trading post of Formosa."

Horn on the side brushed his messy red hair, and was very impressed by the young Tatar nobleman in front of him whose temperament was very different from that of the Han bureaucrats, and smiled and said tentatively, "It's a pity that the small island full of deer, which occupies two or six percent of the business volume of VOC, is now occupied by the rebels of your country." ”

Formosa is the name given to Taiwan by Portugal, Spain, the Netherlands and other countries.

"There's nothing to regret about this, you can turn them into your local futures purchasing agents, increase arms exports, and have a higher net profit margin." Yuan Ji raised his hand to signal a few people to enter the house, and turned sideways.

"Your Royal Highness, although I heard a lot of rumors about you before I came, I have to say that you are completely different from what we imagined."

Rohr stroked his white-blonde hair that covered his ears, nodded to Motoyoshi, and walked towards the house.

"Of course it's different, I'm not a prince, just like you, I'm just a barbarian who sees money."

Yuan Ji laughed when he heard this, "The set of things you deal with with the Mughal Empire is not suitable for frank communication between us barbarians, we should be in a company-to-company nature."

What we are going to talk about is a series of sovereign land ownership rights under the sovereignty endorsement of the Qing Dynasty that cover the transfer of sovereignty, such as autonomy, monopoly of trade, monopoly of shipping routes, and private property rights.

I have been endorsed by my Government as the non-exempt and plenipotentiary negotiator at the level of ambassador, are you sure that I have equal powers? ”

“S.A.R.L？ Company-to-company? ”

Horn is unusually sensitive to the French word, "Joint-stock private company form? Are you sure, Your Highness? ”

The French S.A.R.L, equivalent to Co.Ltd in English, Co is the abbreviation of Company, the meaning of company and organization, CIA is the Central Intelligence Agency, also referred to as Company. Ltd is Limited, limited, limited.

Limited liability is "only pay the obligations and responsibilities of the provisions", which restricts the margins of rights and obligations, and the assets within the framework are lost and pulled down, and the liability exemption outside the limited liability is told to you in advance: irresponsible.

The "limited liability" is unlimited liability, for example, senior law firms and private banks in Europe and the United States, many of which are unlimited liability.

In the event that the law firm and the bank go bankrupt, all the partners of the law firm and the shareholders of the bank are jointly and severally liable, and their personal and family assets are used to pay off the debts.

It was clear among the European nations that the king's property was a private limited liability. National credit and mortgage loans are not all unlimited liability, and some only mortgage tariffs, mortgage colonies, and can't afford to pay back the colonies to you.

The Qing Dynasty had unlimited liability, no limited concept, and the demarcation of property rights was not as clear as in Europe.

Therefore, the Qing Dynasty could not talk about the inviolability of private property, because even what was "private property" was not demarcated.

For example, for fields, you have to pay the field tax, and the field tax includes three items: land, promotion and renting.

The land is forced labor, and the compulsory working hours are apportioned into the mu, and the forced labor is exchanged for a monetary tax.

Shengke is a temporary transition tax for land reclamation and new land purchases, and the land tax is mainly rented, and the Qing Dynasty is a tax according to the Ming Dynasty.

Huangzhuang and Baqi and other internal affairs offices and banner properties, farmers and tenants who invested in the early years, the rent is marked according to the fish scale book per mu of upper, middle and lower fields, respectively, about three cents, two cents, and one cent of silver.

Most of them are paid in kind such as grain, the proportion of monetary contributions is uncertain, and long-term contracts are unchanged for a hundred years, only rent is paid, and no more land taxes are paid.

So is this a Qing Banner property, or is it a private land?

The land endowment of the private land in the south of the Yangtze River is more than the rent of the northern grange, is this a private field? How is this different from Flag Property? Why should the output of private land be handed over to the imperial court?

I only pay taxes to pay obligations, where is my right?

What is the basis for the collection of land taxes, taxes, and apportionment of forced labor in the Qing Dynasty? Just because the Qing Dynasty is a court, has the right to rule, and has an army, isn't the court a slave owner?

Where did the slaves get their private property? Private property endorsed by slave owners? When the slave owner doesn't want to endorse, doesn't he still kill the slave? Let the slave pick up the house, and the slave will not pick it up?

This problem cannot be explained clearly, once the people's awakening rises, there will be the Boston tea pouring incident, and the independence of the thirteen states in the United States.

The definition of the margin of responsibility for real private property and rights and obligations will not be until after a bunch of property rights bills have been issued.

What is your basis for taxing private property? Collect the real estate tax of the community and use it only for the police station and community school in the community? Well, this proposal is allowed to be voted on at the upper meeting, and once it is voted on, it can only be taxed if it is agreed!

If you don't agree, you can't accept it, many communities and even cities in the United States, police stations, fire stations, and even the government don't want them. A town, ask where is the mayor? No mayor. A city, ask where is the city government? There is no city government.

Isn't it shouted that "private property is inviolable" and "the wind can enter, the dog can enter, but the king cannot enter", and there is such a thing as private property and freedom, and the king will not let it in, and the IRS can enter?

Where is your legal basis? Who is endorsing the enforcement of the law? Where is the margin of responsibility for rights and obligations?

I've given you democracy, take it, you have democracy!

If you pull a hundred people on the street, can two of them tell the same name about the form and implementation of democracy?

What is this? This is not the language of jurisprudence, it is the language of the indigenous people, the language of the English, Dutch, Swedish East India Company, the language of dealing with the princely states of India, with the Mughal Empire.

It's no different from taking a glass ball and exchanging Manhattan from an Indian chief, isn't that how Macau got it?

This is because it is a wasted effort to explain what a treaty is and what rights and obligations are to an object that has no legal concept.

A representative of the United States signed a framework treaty on sovereignty and trade between Java and Indonesia with the Dutch East India Company and a memorandum statement on the Philippines with a Philippine commander-in-chief.

The former can be enforced for a hundred years, and the latter has no legal effect, does not need to be torn up, and is ineffective in itself.

In this era, the equality of people is not recognized, and only the food is served by the guests.

You are a civilized person, and we use the rules of a civilized person. You are indigenous, and I can't treat them the same way I treat civilized people.

It's not just a matter of discrimination, but what if you don't? What to explain to the Aborigines? How can that be explained? Guess for yourself.

"You mean that the scope of our negotiations will be the ownership of sovereignty under private property rights?"

Horn's expression was a little more serious, the Dutch East India Company VOC had a seven-member board system, and he represented one of the seven dwarfs.

Due to the transfer of Dutch sovereign rights related to trade, coinage, diplomacy, the formation of armies, waging war, etc., related to trade, coinage, diplomacy, waging war, etc.

Once the Dutch East India Company signed a formal treaty, it was automatically endorsed by the Netherlands.

The Netherlands actually has no government, only the royal family and parliament, it is the United Kingdom, called the Netherlands and the Indonesian Federation, and the Caribbean has the state of the Netherlands.

The Netherlands means Low Countries not only in the Netherlands, but also in Belgium and Luxembourg. The area is actually German-speaking and Dutch is German.

Since the German-speaking region does not attach importance to sea power, the Hanseatic League and other business districts are only offshore business districts. As a result, at the beginning of the Age of Discovery, the Netherlands, by virtue of its relationship with the German-speaking region, became the foreign import and export corporation of the German-speaking countries.

The Netherlands, like the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, is the United Kingdom.

The British call themselves UK, and the United States is the same, the name of the United States is United.States, the power of the federation comes from the transfer of state rights, and the federation itself has no power.

These reactionary countries were all divided by warlords, and the warlords met together to vote, which was exactly the same as the assembly of the kings in the early Qing Dynasty.

Not only the East Indies, but this power was extensible, and it could determine some monopoly trade rights in the Netherlands in Asia, and the ownership of shipping routes and land property rights in the Netherlands, and it could replace the Netherlands in deciding with whom to ally and with whom to go to war.

This is completely different from what Horn imagined before he went north.

He only represented the Dutch East India Company, hoping to take a bag of glass balls in exchange for a piece of Oriental Manhattan, without any mental preparation for the contract.

And no matter how he looked at it, the young Tatar in front of him was not like the eastern ruler in his cognition, whether it was the nobles of the Mughal Empire, the shogunate of Japan, or the lords of the daimyo domain.

"The Formosa you speak of is of no use to us."

The group came to the house, and there was a long wood-colored table in the middle, on which was a large sand table made of cement and cemented soil, Yuan Ji walked over, picked up a slender whip on the side of the table, and pointed to an island off the coast of southeast Fujian, "This island, only when it is not in our hands, is a treasure island." Once in our hands, it will be a waste island, without any resource output, no geographical significance, no military significance.

On the contrary, in your hands, it can be used as a trading post and material distribution base that radiates to the southeast of the Qing Dynasty, connecting Manila in the Philippines and Nagasaki in Japan, the support point of the West Pacific Triangle Galleon trade route, and a link in the global base chain.

Any land along the coast and inland of Taiwan is free to pick and choose, and the land in Taiwan with the area of ten will be exchanged for the land of the Netherlands in the top ten, or the coastal land near Rotterdam.

Lend-lease, cession, sovereign base areas, it's all right, let's wait. The Netherlands leased the land of the 10 A ports in Taiwan for 10 years, and the Qing Dynasty wanted the 10 A ports of the Netherlands to lease the land for 10 years. Depending on the distance from the capital and the geographical location, the ratio of the exchange area can be adjusted appropriately.

If the Netherlands wants to establish a sovereignty zone equivalent to the mainland in Taiwan, it can. According to the roughly equivalent area, it is enough to demarcate the sovereign area of the Great Qing Dynasty in the Netherlands mainland. ”

"A" is about the same as the land area used by the Eight Banners outside the customs "Yao", which is the area of rent once set up by the Netherlands in Taiwan, which is equivalent to more than 10 acres.

"Is it okay to have a military base and a naval port?" Horn asked.

"Yes." Motoyoshi nodded without hesitation.
