The United States has only been in the war for a year, and the US government has issued $20 billion in bonds, which is the carrot that Wilson gave Morgan, and these American politicians can be said to be very handy with the use of carrots and sticks. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

With the carrot of war money in one hand and the stick of cutting off financial routes in the other, the American corporations honestly acquiesced in the government's interference in them during the war.

The Brazilian government has provided guarantees for the coffee cartels, but the American government just doesn't agree, and throws out the government's opposition to unproductive lending, and the American banking syndicates can tolerate it, if they change to before, they will probably crusade against the government, because they used to mainly amplify commerce, pushing up all kinds of prices again and again, and reaping profits.

However, now that the US government says that it will lend money to the production sector, the consortium does not object to it, because the business in the production sector in the United States is now the best, and the production of various materials overtakes commerce. These consortia want economic gain, and the purpose of their previous control of the government is for commercial gain. And the U.S. government gives them commercial benefits, thus squeezing these conglomerates out of political power.

Yang Chao has always been very supportive of this group of politicians who appeared in the United States at the turn of the century, and of course, standing on the opposite side of the United States, these people are Yang Chao's biggest opponents.

In Yang Chao's suite, a slightly reserved Brazilian bowed slightly, holding a top hat with Portuguese characteristics in his hand.

Yang Chao enthusiastically stretched out his hand to shake his hand.

"Mr. Sebastian, huh?"

"I'm Sebastian, and I've met His Excellency the President."

Brazilians have little confidence in their own presence in the world, and they are a sling when they go out of the Americas, and they themselves think so, because historically, Brazil has not had any concept of great power, and their people have no sense of great empire, and in this regard, they are not even comparable to North Korea and Vietnam.

After all, it was a colony of the small country of Portugal, and when it was toxic, Portugal had already weakened into a weak country.

"You may be seated!"

Yang Chao gestured, and the translator next to him explained.

Sebastian sat down.

"I heard you're here for a loan. Your government has also given assurances. ”

Yang Chao asked knowingly.

The coffee cartel has the same impact on the Brazilian government as the Morgan and Rockefeller consortiums combined have on the U.S. government, and the two major conglomerates of a decade ago, which are no longer working out.

During the Kang Youwei Restoration, Brazilians came to China to seek immigrants and put forward three requirements, the first is that the immigrants must become Brazilian citizens, the second is that the immigrants must be married and families immigrate together, and the third is that they must all be engaged in agricultural labor.

In fact, the main reason is that the coffee plantation owners do not have enough labor.

Therefore, this immigration issue is actually manipulated by the coffee cartel and other hacienda owners, Yang Chao thinks that this kind of commercial manipulation of politics is very good and worth advocating, and now that the coffee cartel is in trouble, it is necessary to support them so that they can continue to influence the Brazilian government.

"Yes, the government is willing to provide guarantees. Secured with taxes. ”

Sebastian was very cautious about assurances, because if they couldn't get a loan from China, their cartel might not be able to survive this difficulty.

It has to be said that their crisis is even worse than the original history, because the war is more fierce than in history, which has led to the US government having a stronger control over the consortium.

"No, not at all! I still believe in the strength of the Brazilian consortium. You can afford to repay. ”

Yang Chao said with a smile, these consortia can't learn to rely on the government, even if the government officials are their people, only by letting the Brazilian government always rely on them, the Brazilian government can always be controlled by them, and once they rely more and more on the government, the government will naturally control them.

Sebastian couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised, although the coffee cartel was powerful, it was not without competitors, and those cane sugar cartels were not very willing.

"Thank you so much."

Sebastian owes.

Yang Chao waved his hand: "It's just a loan of 10 million, not enough to worry about." But I heard that the Americans rejected you. I'm probably worried about your ability to repay. But I don't have to worry at all, I think the U.S. government is completely out of nowhere. The Brazilian coffee cartel will definitely not affect the American consumer, and the industry alliance will only make the business more rational, not the blind competition. ”

Sebastian felt like he had met his soulmate.

Yang Chao continued: "But now is the time of the war, and your coffee production is really not optimistic. So, in order to support the friendly Brazilian people, I would like to sign an agreement with Brazil that all Brazilian coffee beans will be tax-free in China. Although the Chinese people still don't like coffee, it is the big cities like Shanghai that are slowly beginning to accept coffee. But I believe that in the future this is a huge market. But don't forget that this is a big country with a population of 500 million, and even if only 1 in 10 people drink coffee, it is equivalent to the current world market. ”

Sebastian didn't just meet his soulmate, but he felt like he had met the Virgin, and there was such a good thing.

"Thank you very much."

"Don't rush to thank you just yet, I actually like to drink coffee. So I also want to do coffee business. ”

This remark immediately made Sebastian nervous, Yang Chao is now the president of China, but before he became president, he was the richest man in the world, and the case of many gatherings of Anglo-American consortiums in Shanghai is clear to the businessmen all over the world.

Yang Chao's Yang Zi consortium is undoubtedly a world-class financial predator, and he wants to run the coffee industry, which is a bolt from the blue for the Brazilian coffee cartel.

"What do you mean?"

Yang Chao knew the panic of the Brazilians.

"Rest assured, I'm not the same as the Brazilian cartel," he explains. I don't get involved in the cultivation and trading of coffee, I want to run a café chain business, open cafes all over the world, and I only have a partnership with Brazilian cartels. Of course, we have to sign a long-term agreement, after all, if you rashly raise the price, it will still have a big impact on me. ”

"This is natural!"

Sebastian was relieved, as long as Yang Chao didn't participate, he was relieved.

"So I'm trying to work with you. All-round cooperation. The Yangzi Bank Group will provide you with the loan you need. Low-interest loans. At the same time, it is necessary to establish long-term cooperation. But please go back and bring the news to the Brazilian government and other Brazilian farmers. I think that Brazil's development in recent years is still not perfect, but Brazil has unique conditions for agricultural development. How can agricultural exports not compare with the United States? China is the most populous country in the world, and the food problem is very big, and I think we have the prospect of cooperation with Brazilian grain merchants. If Mr. Sebastian is willing to make a deal out of this, or is interested in participating, I think you Brazil can also form a grain cartel. China will provide a series of benefits such as tax exemption, of course, requiring the signing of long-term supply agreements, food security is what we value the most. ”

Yang Chao continued.

As for whether Sebastian will bring the message back, he doesn't know, but as long as the cooperation with the coffee cartel is established, other Brazilian businessmen will not refuse.

Brazil's population is five or six million, five or six million immigrants, more than 10 million, more than 8 million square kilometers of land, and the arable land area is more than China's, and agricultural development alone can make the country a rich country. What's more, Brazil is also rich in minerals, especially iron ore and oil resources, which must be controlled in hand.

Of course, the premise is that they have to find a huge market, and use China's huge market to control Brazil's agriculture and mining, as for the immigration problem, it is only incidental, with a huge market, Brazilian farmers and mine owners will be crazy to find labor, if they don't come to China to find it, will they go to the United States?

In less than 30 years, the Chinese in Brazil will be able to compete with the number of whites, of course, the contradictions and conflicts will definitely be very acute, you immigrate three or five hundred thousand, Brazilians don't care, but once it exceeds one million, it is strange that the Brazilian nationalists do not jump out, and then they will have to rely on these consortia to suppress.

Historically, the Japanese have immigrated to Brazil for more than 30 years, but only 300,000 have immigrated, and the Chinese population is ten times that of Japan.

Sebastian went satisfied, taking with him the loan and the friendship of the Chinese rulers to Brazil.

The content of their cooperation was soon made public, and without Sebastian speaking, Brazil's grain merchants and sugar merchants united to put pressure on the government, demanding that the government take measures to ensure their interests and open up the Chinese market as soon as possible.

Brazil immediately began to organize a business delegation to China, and their commercial consul asked to meet Yang Chao in advance, and he needed to communicate with Yang Chao on this issue first.

"Grain, cane sugar, of course, there is an intention to cooperate."

The Brazilian commercial consul in Shanghai quickly received a positive reply from Yang Chao, and he was ecstatic, now Brazil is completely an agricultural country, and they also take agriculture as the foundation of the country, of course, they may not have any concept of the foundation of the country, because this is a country composed of a group of farmers.

"The issue of tax exemption can also be discussed."

Yang Chao threw out a second bait.

After intense negotiations, he successfully persuaded the Chinese president to agree to negotiate on the issue of tax exemption for grain and sugar, hoping that the Brazilian government would send a delegation as soon as possible to determine it while the changeable Chinese had not changed their minds.

Well, the grain group and the sugar group are also in the urn, so there is no need for Yang Chao to agitate in the future, they themselves will increase their efforts to immigrate, and even in this regard, they will ask the Chinese government for help. When they found out about the population problem, they said that it would not matter, and Yang Chao would have to tell them what a military action to protect overseas Chinese was. (To be continued.) )
