At this time, the Fujian First Division had already gone through more than a month of queue training, and due to the arduous training, the queue had already practiced very well.

The First Division immediately held a military parade, and Modoma was surprised to see such a regularized army, and he did not expect that the Fujian Autonomous Party already had a regular army of one division.

In other words, the outcome of the autonomy party's seizure of Fujian can no longer be changed, and the United States can no longer solve the problem by exerting pressure on the Qing government.

If you want to solve the problem of tariff protection in Fujian, you must treat people and things, and Mo Doma really paid attention to it, only to see him say to Xia Jun: "It is illegal for you autonomous party people to collect tariffs in Fujian, and my country has a lot of opinions on this." ”

"Although we are autonomous, we have broken away from the Manchu government, and the imposition of tariffs is our internal affair, but for your country, we can give tariff preferences, provided that such preferences are mutually reciprocal." Xia Jun said to Mo Doma, who asked puzzledly, "What is each other's surnames?" ”

"It is the preferential tariff policy we give to American goods, and the United States must also give us a preferential tariff policy for Fujian's goods, and Fujian even gives us zero tariffs on American goods, and of course the United States must also give us zero tariffs, and at the same time allow both sides to invest in each other's territory." Xia Jun said that the reason why he put forward this condition was obviously to lure the Yankees into the trap.

At this time, the products of some major private enterprises in Fujian are competitive even if they are exported, of course, this is exported to those industrially underdeveloped countries similar to China, if they are exported to the United States and other countries, after the freight plus tariffs, there will be no competitiveness.

Even exports are competitive, not to mention the market in Fujian, after the Yankees' goods come in, there is also no market, the only deficiency is that there are not too many types of factories, and the variety of goods is not complete.

However, because the people are not yet rich, there is no demand for some goods, and in terms of basic commodity demand, they can basically be self-sufficient at this time.

Therefore, the imposition of zero tariffs on American goods will not have much impact, on the contrary, it can increase some competitive pressure, and only with competition can there be progress.

In an industry that can't be sustained, Xia Jun can give blood transfusions to private enterprises.

However, Xia Jun's exports to the United States can continue to increase, and if there is a preferential policy of zero tariff, Xia Jun can even dump the United States on some goods.

Of course, if it goes too far, the Yankees will not do it, but if they can cheat, they will cheat, and they will make money for a day if they cheat, and the Yankees will stop doing it.

"If you can give preferential tariffs to our goods, I think we in the United States should also implement preferential tariffs on you." After hearing this, Modoma immediately said, hardly thinking about it, because the United States attaches great importance to business development, and what the United States wants is an open market.

According to common sense, this kind of preferential tariff policy between the two sides is beneficial to the United States.

Of course, the decision is not in the hands of Modoma, but he can influence his country's policy to a certain extent, depending on how he reports.

In the next few days, Xia Jun took Mo Doma to travel around in Jian'an, and when Mo Doma left, Xia Jun also stuffed him with a passbook of Jianzhou Bank, which contained 100,000 silver dollars.

It was by this means that Yuan Shikai bribed the British ambassador Zhu Erdian, and when Zhu Erdian returned to China to report to the British emperor, he said that Yuan Shikai was the most likely person to unify China, and thus won the support of the British.

It is impossible to say that the minister does not accept bribes, after all, he is an external personnel, and he is a position with no oil and water, so naturally no one investigates, and it is not easy to check Xia Jun's bribery.

Mo Doma was naturally very happy to accept the bribe, as a minister, there is not too much oil and water, and where there is oil and water is a person like Xia Jun who needs his help, but he is only a minister in Xiamen, and people generally do not find him.

And Xia Jun made a generous move, as soon as he made a move, it was 100,000 silver dollars, that is, 200,000 US dollars, which was many times higher than his salary.

Li Shijing also inquired about the birth of the minister and his wife from Mo Doma's wife, and Xia Jun wrote down the birth of the minister, and in the future, he could send some gifts to the American minister every holiday and birthday, and continue to envelop the American minister.

After Modoma returned, he wrote a letter to the President of the United States, threatening that the Fujian Autonomous Party had seized Fujian as a fact, and that the Qing court was no longer able to influence the Fujian Autonomous Party, let alone eliminate them. On the issue of tariffs, they are willing to open their markets to the United States separately and even implement a zero-tariff policy, but at the same time, the United States must also implement a zero-tariff policy.

After receiving Modoma's letter, U.S. President William #Taft stopped putting pressure on the Qing government.

However, the US political axe did not fully accept Modoma's opinion, that is, it did not support the Fujian Autonomous Party and did not implement preferential tariff policies on both sides.

Because the US policy is still very ignorant of the Fujian Autonomous Party, it is not easy for them to make rash decisions, but since they are a pro-American force, they no longer want to dwell on the issue of tariff protection in Fujian.

The choice of the US political axe is to wait and see for a while, and then make a decision after it is clear, anyway, there is no problem with the temporary loss of the market in Fujian.

And if the US political axe wants to, it can regain possession of the Fujian market, because the Fujian Autonomous Party is a pro-American force, and once it makes a gesture, the Fujian market will be exclusively owned by the US political axe.

Fujian is the sphere of influence of the United States, and other powers do not pay much attention to Fujian, since the United States is unwilling to take care of it anymore, naturally no one cares about it, which reduces the pressure on Xia Jun in diplomacy.

Xia Jun's diplomacy can be described as extremely successful, and the Yankees were fooled by a market-exclusive condition, and they knew what it was like when the Yankees gnawed on this piece of fat in their eyes.

At the same time, Xia Jun's smuggling in Ningde Port also won the tacit approval of the United States, Xia Jun's smuggling in Ningde was not extremely hidden, but when the customs cracked down on smuggling, they found that there were several torpedo boats in Ningde Port, so they did not dare to approach.

Xia Jun's smuggled goods have recently added canned chicken, Xia Jun's broiler farm began to expand, due to the previous Xia Jun from the exchange platform to build the chicken farm style, the chicken farm expansion directly according to this style of expansion, does not need Xia Jun from the exchange platform to spend points to expand.

The scale of the broiler farm has reached the level of being able to raise 25 million chickens, and it cannot be expanded for the time being, because if it is expanded, the feed will not be enough.

At present, agricultural production has not yet developed, and the aquaculture industry is naturally restricted.

However, the amount of canned chicken produced each month is really quite a lot, and the chicken canning factory run by Xia Jun can produce 30 million canned chicken products every month, and those scraps can be used to feed pigs.

This canning factory is exclusively controlled by Xia Jun, and Huang Yuanting's Taohua canning factory is also operating canned chicken, after all, the canning factory opened by Xia Jun is only so big, and after the expansion of the chicken farm, it will not be enough to digest those broilers.

Xia Jun's canned broiler chickens began to be sold in Western countries, but also in China, selling only 8 cents per can, with sales of $2.4 million per month, while the cost of a canned broiler chicken was only 2 cents, and the profit was $1.5 million a month with tariff deductions.

After receiving the equipment support of Xia Jun, the production cost of Taohua canning factory has decreased, the product quality has also improved, and the product variety has also increased, but it is currently winter, and many raw materials are not available this season, and whether it can be profitable depends on next year.

Since the problem of feed had to be solved in order to develop the aquaculture industry, Xia Jun urgently ordered Chen Jiayi to go to Peru, and Xia Jun wanted to invest in a fishmeal processing plant in Peru.

Peru is the world's leading exporter of fishmeal because it has one of the world's four largest fisheries, the largest production of anchovy.

Anchovy is a general term for some fish of the anchovy family, also known as anchovy, sea meander, rotten from the water, old eye feces, mackerel food. The mouth is large, and the position is lower. The snout is blunt and rounded, and the lower jaw is shorter than the upper jaw. The body is covered with thin round scales and is very easy to fall off. No siding. The abdomen is round, without spindle scales. Tail fin forked. The warm-water surname is pelagic fish, the phototaxis surname is stronger, and the juvenile fish are more obvious. Small fish, spawning fish group length is 75~140mm, weight 5~20g. "Sea meander" is the salted and dried product processed by juvenile anchovies. Anchovy has a flat body, about 10 cm in length, blue-green, resembling a sardine, and is commonly known as Peruvian sardines. Every year at the turn of summer and autumn, they gather on the Peruvian coast. Although anchovy is not edible, its bones are the main raw material of the fishmeal industry (on average, one tonne of fishmeal can be made from every 5.3 tonnes of anchovy).

The aquaculture industry needs fishmeal, fishmeal is an important animal protein added feed, can not be replaced by other feed, Peruvian fishmeal production is very high, the output is more than one million tons, but in recent years, the fishmeal processing industry in Peruvian fisheries has developed very slowly, and the fishmeal market is not very large.

Therefore, it is very profitable to set up a fishmeal processing plant in the baths of Peru, and although it cannot be sold directly, it can provide a large amount of cheap fishmeal for the aquaculture industry in Fujian.
