When you know that you have a large amount of money, but this huge amount of money may not belong to you at any time, what will you do with this huge amount of money? I'm afraid that the only answer is to spend it as soon as possible and realize it as soon as possible. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info this kind of idea many people have, for example, some people who are willing to be a little three or four for the sake of vanity, they know very well that they must enjoy happiness as soon as possible, otherwise once they are old, no one will like them, so they can ask for more money and all kinds of wealth as much as possible, so as to protect themselves in the future.

And Chen Dingtian is also very pitiful at the moment, and he seems to feel this way. Although he made a lot of money from the Harry Potter novel, he faced a very difficult result, that is, the British were unwilling to give it to him directly. The British are worried that once the money flows into the Far East, it will never return, which will affect the economic development of Britain.

Although Chen Dingtian understood the reason why the British did this, he was very unhappy, very, very unhappy. The money was their own, but the British didn't even inform them and made the decision on their behalf. The property right should reasonably belong to them, but these British obviously did not respect their property rights and directly made the decision on behalf of Chen Dingtian. In this way, in front of the state apparatus, Chen Dingtian alone cannot effectively confront him. The only one who can deal with the state apparatus is the state apparatus, and Chen Dingtian couldn't help but have some other ideas.

But it was useless to say anything now, and the British agreed to offset the money with their various industrial products or services, so that Chen Dingtian did not lose to the end. However, Chen Dingtian was very worried, because the money was in the hands of the British, but he did not have any strength to hand over it to the British. Although the British were still willing to offset this money with various industrial goods and services, this was based on the fact that the British were afraid of their own defection to France and Prussia, so they did not swallow it directly for the reason of prudence. Even if Chen Dingtian had no Prussians and French around him, the British would not have been polite to him at all, and it was possible to swallow it directly.

So Chen Dingtian was very worried, Chen Dingtian did not dare to pin all his hopes on France and Prussia, he could only make a choice and spend the money as soon as possible. It becomes a variety of practical things as soon as possible, so as to avoid all kinds of possible losses.

"Consul Alle, I hope to use the local dividends obtained from this Harry Potter Company share, and then continue to hire you British military instructors, who have been sent to the Far East as training in the name of the Royal Security Company, what do you think?" Chen Dingtian asked.

Ali Guo replied: "I will also send this back for instructions, I have no right to agree to this without permission, but I can help you fight for it." But the cost of that employment will be paid from you. Even because I have to work in the Far East, I am afraid that I will have to give several times the extra salary. ”

The corners of Chen Dingtian's mouth twitched, this Englishman definitely ate the kickback. What to pay several times the salary, this is complete nonsense. They are soldiers, and it is their duty to obey orders, and if they dare to refuse, they can be sent to a court-martial. Even if you have to give some subsidies for overseas service, it will not be several times higher! So this Briton is definitely taking advantage of the opportunity, taking the opportunity to exploit himself, and then taking kickbacks from it.

"Okay, I agree!" Chen Dingtian said.

The situation is stronger than people, and people want to exploit themselves, so Chen Dingtian still has nothing to do. At present, he is not qualified to be truly equal to them, so he can only endure himself. People exploited themselves, but they also sent some instructors over, which is a good choice.

"Also, I hope to use this money to form a technical school, what do you think? And this technical school hires all kinds of skilled workers from your UK to train us Chinese to become technicians. I think you're the best at training people with a lower level of education, and you're the best at it. Chen Dingtian said.

The reason why Chen Dingtian didn't want the Germans to train technicians was because the two countries had different national conditions, so they couldn't copy it directly! Although Germany has a strong industrial heritage and high precision, this is actually related to national conditions. Germany has been compulsorily compulsory for 100 years, and this kind of background is not comparable to China, and even in terms of cultural education and population quality, the British are quite inferior.

The path of development of any country cannot be replicated, and it has its own unique characteristics. Only by combining one's own needs and characteristics of development is the fastest, most suitable and best development, otherwise it is impossible to succeed in learning from others. At present, the British have an advantage, because the British are all over the colonies around the world, and they have experienced many civilizations and ethnic groups, and even most of the ethnic groups have a low level of education and a low quality of the population. Therefore, the British are often responsible for training these people with low quality and cultural quality, to become officers or various workers. In terms of training these ethnic groups with a lower level of education, it is clear that the British are more experienced and more accumulated than the Germans. Although the Germans seem to be powerful, it is based on hundreds of years of compulsory education, and not everyone can learn it in a short time.

Chen Dingtian will not blindly pursue the first, only the most suitable for himself is the most suitable. At present, the quality of China's ordinary population is relatively poor, and those few educated "scholars" are unlikely to engage in the technical industry, and even look down on scientific inventions, so Chen Dingtian does not count on them. However, those people at the bottom obviously have a very low cultural quality, and this is also a fact that cannot be ignored, so that the British, who have experienced many kinds of civilizations and experienced many people with low cultural quality, are the most suitable for the current China.

Chen Dingtian asked the British to train officers and all kinds of technicians for themselves, which is the reason.

Ali Guo then asked: "Since you want these technicians to be trained, have you ever thought about training the mechanics in the past to actually operate, which requires a lot of machinery and corresponding raw materials?" I think I can help you contact the domestic machinery and some raw material procurement, you see if you are interested. Our British Empire has colonies all over the world, so we have a lot of resources. We can get all kinds of steel, copper, and even all kinds of resources, and we can basically get them if you want to. ”

"Even the various industrial machinery of our British Empire is not weak, whether we are interested in purchasing it, I can help you contact them."

Chen Dingtian couldn't help but complain: "Consul Aliguo, are you a consul or a salesman?" ”

"Hehe, we, the ministers and consuls stationed abroad, generally don't mind making a cameo appearance as a salesman." Ali Guo thought.

That's right, ministers and consuls in this era don't really mind making a cameo as salesmen, and even ministers and consuls of many countries abroad have the responsibility of promoting their own products. Help the country to export or import something, in short, the ministers and consuls of various countries do not mind making a cameo appearance as a salesman when necessary, buying or exporting some "local products" for the country.

In fact, Ali Guo had already received an order from China, asking him to sell all kinds of things to Chen Dingtian as much as possible, and various services from the British. Even the authorization obtained is not small, as long as Chen Dingtian is willing to ask for it, then Ali Guo will also agree to it as much as possible. In fact, this Englishman also has the same idea as Prussia and France, and they also want to open up the Chinese market.

As early as more than a dozen years ago, that crow. Although the Treaty of Nanking was signed after the war, it did not really meet the British idea. Many people just know that the Treaty of Nanking allowed China to cede Hong Kong, and the British to establish concessions, and to lose judicial sovereignty. But most people don't know that these are not what the British want most. What judicial sovereignty, cession of Hong Kong, and establishment of concessions are actually not what the British want the most, and the three conditions of the British are actually for one purpose, that is, to open the Chinese market.

China, a huge market of 400 million people, even the British, who claim to be the empire on which the sun never sets, are all ridiculous! There is a clause in the Treaty of Nanjing that many people subconsciously ignore, that is, to allow China to open more ports for trade. This trade was the ultimate goal of the British, not war for war's sake.

As for the concessions, the cession of Hong Kong, and the consular jurisdiction, in fact, they are all for the purpose of opening up the Chinese market. The attitude of Britain towards China in the middle and second half of the nineteenth century was different, and in the middle of the nineteenth century, and even before the Sino-Japanese War, the British did not directly turn China into a colony. In this middle period, the British were simply trying to open up the market, and did not essentially have the idea of colonizing China.

As for saying that the West wanted to colonize China from the beginning, this is also unfair. Chen Dingtian did not want to beautify the aggression of Western countries, but Chen Dingtian just wanted to explain the fact that the policies and attitudes of any country are changed according to the current situation, and they will not remain unchanged. At first, the Western countries only hoped to open up the Chinese market, but later they discovered China's weakness, and the Western countries' navigation capabilities further increased, and their ability to interfere with the East became stronger and stronger, so they had the idea of turning China into a colony.

At least, in the middle of the 19th century, Western countries did not directly occupy China or treat China as a colony, at least to open up the Chinese market.

Although the Treaty of Nanking stipulated that merchants should not be restricted from trading, the Manchu government still openly and covertly prevented and restricted merchants from trading with foreigners, so that they could not open the Chinese market. Now that they have this opportunity, of course they want to take it. As for the change of dynasty in China, this has nothing to do with the British, but if China is willing to open up the market after the change of dynasty, then this is more in line with the thinking of the British.

"Damn, these guys actually took the opportunity to cheat me for money! It's really a bastard, I was expecting to use this Harry Potter to support my retirement, but you bastards actually want to offset this money with various industrial products, so it's really a big loss. However, it is better to spend it as soon as possible, and anyway, it will be regarded as a contribution to the country. Chen Dingtian reluctantly continued to carry forward the spirit of Ah Q and thought.

"Okay, I want to continue to buy steel, and all kinds of resources, such as copper, iron, and various alloys, what do you think? Including those cannon steels capable of making artillery. Chen Dingtian said.

"Yes, this can be done!" Ali Guo replied.

Ali Guo is not afraid that Chen Dingtian wants more, but he is afraid that he will not want it. Although asking for some cannon steel may be made into a cannon, but even if Chen Dingtian makes a cannon, what can it be, that is, in the Far East, it cannot threaten the security of Britain. In this era, technical secrecy is not very strict, as long as they can afford the price, these foreigners dare to sell anything. This has something to do with the current world traffic, because even with the same technology, it will not be able to threaten Europe.

On the contrary, Ali Guo was authorized to the greatest extent, and as long as he was very close to what he wanted, he agreed as much as he could. These British devils, but they are goblins, they hope to take advantage of this opportunity for Chen Dingtian to purchase a large number of goods to open up the Chinese market. They are not afraid that Chen Dingtian will ask for more, but they are afraid that Chen Dingtian will not ask for it. These British and Prussian French thought together, although they didn't know Chen Dingtian's dealings with Prussia and the French, but they also understood very well that they were also trying to open the Chinese market! Now Chen Dingtian's large purchase may also be an opportunity, a huge opportunity to open up the Chinese market, and they don't want to miss it.

Swallowing this money, maybe it's just a sum of money. However, if this Chen Dingtian's procurement can be used to successfully open the Chinese market, then the wealth brought to the future is absolutely incomparable, and it is a huge wealth. Therefore, the British are not stupid, they may think that swallowing this money is only a temporary wealth, but it will overstimulate Chen Dingtian and force him to join Prussia or France. On the other hand, if the money is used to buy from Chen Dingtian, it may be able to use this opportunity as a way to open up the Chinese market.

"Okay, I've written it down, may I ask Mr. Chen, is there anything else you want? I can write it down together and report back to China together, what do you think? Ali Guo asked.

Chen Dingtian continued: "I still have ......"

Chen Dingtian went on to say a lot of things, which are mainly industrial products and various raw materials. But Chen Dingtian's heart hurts, this pound is too hot, he has to spend it quickly, he really can't keep it! No, in just a short period of time, tens of thousands of pounds were spent, so Chen Dingtian was in pain, but he had to do so. (To be continued.) )
