Shi Dakai urgently arranged military affairs, and Dong Haichuan rushed to Shanghai with several of Shi Dakai's cadres to see Hua Ruohan and discuss the arms deal.

However, Dong Haichuan was destined to make a trip in vain, because just half a month ago, US President Lincoln had to sign a decree -- the "Prohibition of Arms Dealers from Exporting Arms to Chinese Rebels."

Some things have happened in the United States recently, the most important thing is that Colt was in extremely poor physical condition, and finally he couldn't support it, couldn't afford to get sick, and finally died on the sickbed.

Colt died, the soul of the Colt Arms Company is gone, and the arms company left behind is now in a short period of chaos, although the remaining people, in the market development ability and research and development, production capacity, has not weakened, but the impact is still huge.

First of all, Colt's accumulated deep connections with the government ended, and the Colt family, whether it was Colt's wife or Colt's son, did not have Colt's strong connections, and they also lacked Colt's strategic vision.

Colt's son Dascolt is still very fond of the Chinese rebels' arms trade requests, after all, it is a million-dollar revenue, and if the follow-up goes well, it may even exceed tens of millions of taels, in addition to the Chinese rebels, there are government troops who need to buy it.

It's just that at this time, suddenly, the other major shareholder of the Colt Arms Company has changed his mind, and Xue Fucheng, Guo Ye's chief representative in the United States, demanded that the Colt Company must stop supplying arms to the Chinese rebels, and absolutely not allow any more guns and ammunition, especially artillery, to enter China.

The two of them had a big quarrel in the arms company, but after all, they couldn't twist their arms and thighs, and Xue Fucheng's efforts failed, after all, China's Jinan Arms Company is now independent of the Colt Arms Company, and has not been merged into the Colt Arms Company, Guo Ye's shares in the Colt Arms Company are only forty percent, the Colt family is more than forty percent, and the rest are small shareholders such as Hua Ruohan.

In the face of huge profits, these people naturally united and resolutely denied Xue Fucheng's request. Xue Fucheng's face was pale, and he couldn't meet Guo Ye's requirements, so the next thing would be tricky, after all, Guo Ye was going to war with the Taiping Army soon, if his arms were sold directly to the Taiping Army, it would be a naked enemy, and the Taiping Army's combat power that got the arms would rise, which would be a big trouble for the Lu Army!

Xue Fucheng tried his best to speak, but he couldn't fulfill his requirements, so he had to leave the Colt company.

Dascolt looked at Xue Fucheng's back, spat fiercely, and said angrily: "******, what the hell, a Chinese Yankee, dares to act prestigiously in front of us, and provokes Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will throw him into the Atlantic Ocean as a shark!" ”

A small shareholder on the side said in a low voice: "Dear Das, he is the representative of General Guo Ye, we can't offend too much, General Guo Ye has a huge influence in the US military, not we can compare!" ”

Dascort roared, "Say! Bastard! This Guo Ye got Gatling, along with his heavy machine gun patents and production lines, to China's arsenal, which is a huge market, and he robbed it like this! Originally, this was supposed to be ours, ours! Lao Tzu is inseparable from him, I have hired a team of lawyers, and I want to take this opportunity to squeeze him out of the Colt company! John, I'm going to have to squeeze him out of Colt! ”

John's face turned pale, and he said urgently: "Darth, have you forgotten your father's deathbed instructions?" We must not break with Guo Ye, this will not benefit us in the slightest, we need to use his power to bring our arms into the market of the United States and China! Now that Colt is gone, we lack a heavyweight figure in China and the United States who can maintain high-level relations! ”

Dascolt sneered: "No, I have already arranged for someone to do it, in China, I will be happy to hire a prince, and he will come forward to dredge up the relationship, in the United States, I have contacted General Sherman, and he has promised me to be a senior military adviser to the arms company, who will use Guo Ye with these two people?" John, don't you want more shares of Colt? As long as I can drive Guo Ye out of the Colt company, I will promise you a quarter of Guo Ye's shares to you! ”

John's heart jumped, now the annual income of Colt Company has exceeded 20 million US dollars, and Guo Ye's quarter of the shares, that is 10 percent, plus 8% of his own shares, this will be a huge wealth, and his voice in Colt Company will also increase exponentially!

John whispered, "Darth, are you sure to get rid of Guo Ye?" This guy isn't a fuel-efficient lamp, and the top brass of Colt and Warrenham have a good relationship with him......"

Dascolt said fiercely: "So what, this is in the United States, this is our territory, we have the final say, take out a sum of money, and throw it directly at the judge, I don't believe it, the court will still speak to Guo Ye!" “

John nodded, what Das said was right, this is the United States, the Americans are naturally talking to the Americans, and they will definitely not turn their elbows outward, as long as they operate properly, it is even possible to drive Guo Ye away directly, and not give him a penny!

Dascort continued: "John, you start to contact in the past few days, we prepare all the materials, mobilize all our network resources, and strive to kill them with one blow, and when the time comes, Colt Company, that is the two of us have the final say!" ”

John said in a deep voice, "What about your mother?" She agrees with us doing this? ”

Darth laughed, "I'm his son, that's what I'm going to do, and she can't help it!" Can he still help outsiders deal with his own son? And his shares have already been entrusted to me! ”

John laughed and said, "Okay, Darth, then the two of us will join forces, I'll contact Warrohan, this guy has more resources in the political world than us, as long as we pull him over, we will be more sure!" ”

The entire Colt company, a total of seven shareholders, Colt is the major shareholder, Guo Ye is the second, John is the third, Hua Ruohan terrain, the remaining three people account for a small proportion of the shares, among the seven people, only Hua Ruohan and Guo Ye have a close relationship, if it is really Hua Ruohan also joined the camp to drive away Guo Ye, in Das's opinion, there will be no problem!
