Sure enough, Jin Jiu came to Yang Chao the next day to talk about the sale of Korean ginseng, although he was not very interested in it, but if he could export 100 million taels of silver every year, it would completely alleviate the current financial difficulties.

"Slices, don't sell by the root, sell by the piece. A large number of them are sold to restaurants, ginseng soup, stewed chicken, which can be used. You North Korea always have its own characteristics, the palace, how to get the emperor's body, take it out and sell it. Send a cook, preferably an imperial chef, to those big hotels in Beijing and teach the Beijing chef how to make Korean ginseng soup. With the mentality of those rich people, they must flock to it. ”

Yang Chao was boastful.

Jin Jiu said suspiciously: "This can be sold for 100 million?" ”

Yang Chao sighed: "Of course it's not so easy. You don't know how to make money, do you want to do business, what you want is a gimmick, North Korean court ginseng soup, big tonic soup, whatever, whatever you want to call it. Anyway, it must be from the palace, and it is used by the king of Joseon to make up for his body. This is to create an atmosphere, and the most important thing is to know how to publicize. If you sell it like this, it is impossible to sell it for 100 million, but if you want Korean ginseng to become a must-order dish for dinner, then there is no boundary, and 100 million is less to say. Chinese, anything can be done, only this one word to eat, that is absolutely impossible. ”

Yang Chao is still very optimistic about the food consumption power of my ****, who is known as a big foodie empire.

"But how can you let everyone eat it?"

Taurus really doesn't understand.

Yang Chao said: "Publicity, is to investigate the market, find the audience, and tailor the advertising for them. What is the target market for this ginseng, it is the middle class, and most of them are men. What do men care about? ”

Jin Jiu still doesn't understand.

Yang Chao said mysteriously: "You have to say that, this thing can be aphrodisiac!" ”

"Ahh

Jin Jiu understood.

"Remember, it must be a palace secret recipe, you North Korea can always find a few ginseng recipes with a bit of aphrodisiac effect, send someone to teach those chefs, and you will have everything."

Jin Jiu nodded.

Then he smiled, Jin Jiu's face was full of potholes, left by adolescence, a smile, slightly hideous.

"The old man should be able to enter the ancestral grave this time. Count me as an old gold owe an adult a favor. ”

Yang Chao glanced at him: "I still want to enter the ancestral grave, it's very early." ”

Jin Jiu frowned and said, "Mr. Yang is afraid that he has a plan, so don't hide it." ”

Yang Chao stood up, waved his hand, shook his head, and walked out of the living room with a sway, indicating that there was no way.

The South Seas picture, Belitung Island has been completely controlled by the South Sea Fleet, the marines landed 3,000 people, found the guide, rushed to the various mines in the jungle, directly sealed, rescued more than 20,000 Chinese laborers, and temporarily placed on the dock.

At the same time, Batavia had been blockaded for three days, the warships of the entire South Sea Fleet were cruising the open sea, and five super-warships were threatening the Dutch in the harbor with their huge cannons.

But no one knows what the Chinese want to do, with the military strength of the Dutch, there is almost no resistance, but the Chinese fleet did not attack, and now the whole world is turned upside down, Britain and the United States urgently meet, exchange views on the situation in the South Seas, and are actively discussing how to respond.

Britain and the United States also have huge interests in the South Seas, not to mention Britain, Malaysia is the world's largest rubber base, northern Borneo oil, and Burma and other colonies, in addition to these interests, the role of defending the Indian colonies and keeping Chinese power out of the Indian Ocean gives Britain enough reasons to protect the colonies here.

The United States is mainly the interests of the Philippines, and the interests of the Philippine colonies may not be anything compared to the economic power of the United States, but this is their only stronghold in Asia, so it is impossible to give up.

So they have good reason to interfere in this area.

And the Chinese also gave them certain opportunities.

The Chinese Navy had two battleships in Belitung, five in Batavia, and three, two in Singapore and one in Manila.

Of course, the battleships in Singapore and Manila could not land directly like Belitung Island, Britain and the United States were not the Netherlands, not to mention that the Chinese Navy did not even capture Batavia, let alone make a move against these two powers.

The naval fleets in Singapore and Manila were under the banner of friendly visits, but at this time both Britain and the United States refused on the grounds of inconvenience.

Britain and the United States refused, but the Chinese fleet did not leave, just squatted at the outer gate of the port, did not fight, did not leave, facing the British and American batteries, making the defenders of the two countries nervous.

On the wharves in Singapore and Manila, there was thunderous cheering, gongs and drums, dragon and lion dances, and at night, almost all the local Chinese put down their work, stopped their business, and ran to the wharf to welcome the motherland's navy.

The law of patriotism when going abroad is applicable when and where, the more wanderers in a foreign land, the more they miss their hometown, of course, this is only Chinese culture, Western culture is really home to the four seas, there is no concept of hometown, from the root, or because the West is mainly derived from nomadic culture, Britain, France and Germany and other countries are all in the Middle Ages, stepping on the ruins of the Roman Empire to build a barbarian tribe; The beginning of Chinese history seems to have started directly from farming, and the Shang Dynasty, which can be traced back to writing, was naturally an agrarian civilization, and the Western Zhou Dynasty pushed classical feudalism to the top.

The glory was too early, although the next thousands of years were almost alternated between rise and fall, and there was no fundamental progress, but this culture of seeking stability was rooted in the bones of the Chinese. This kind of culture rooted in the bones is too strange to other cultures, and it is almost difficult to integrate, so wherever Chinese go, they play with themselves, no matter which country they are in, they build a Chinatown to live in.

But because of the uniqueness of Chinese culture, Westerners do not understand, do not accept, plus the country is weak, they begin to discriminate, bully Chinese, this move stimulates the national concept of overseas Chinese, so they are particularly full of feelings for everything from the motherland, especially the kind of things that can make them feel dependent, whether it is a strong man from the motherland, or a military force from the motherland, they are very welcome.

It's like Li Hongzhang and Yang Chao went to the United States, and the local Chinese would come to express their welcome.

And this time it is no longer welcome, it is really crazy, because the purpose of the motherland's fleet this time is to vent the anger of our overseas Chinese, because the Dutch bullied us Chinese and killed a Chinese worker, so the motherland drove the entire Nanyang fleet over.

Moreover, the navy published news in the newspapers of the Chinese in various places, informing them of the time of their visit, and the local Chinese and overseas Chinese immediately took action, and with the ties of the compatriots' associations, chambers of commerce, and even Hongmen and Tiandihui, they all came to the wharf to welcome the navy, and the reason why the navy came here may also be the crimes committed by these organizations.

Bad guys are also patriotic, and there are bad guys among patriots.

Whether it is a good person or a bad person, he is very happy and proud at this time, and he feels that he has raised his face in front of foreigners.

They didn't know that the foreigners were really nervous, not to mention the Dutch, even Britain and the United States were starting to get nervous.

"Ma, this Pan Xun, what is this going to play?"

Yang Chao had made up his mind not to interfere in this incident, but he was very puzzled why Pan Xun didn't act quickly.

If Yang Chao came to operate, he would definitely act as soon as possible, without giving the Dutch time to react, and immediately send troops to occupy Batavia, creating a fait accompli, and then negotiating.

However, Pan Xun dragged his feet, and instead blockaded Batavia outside, giving Britain and the United States too much time to operate.

I couldn't help but send a telegram to Pan Xun asking about it.

Pan Xun replied: "Shanghai, Gold Bureau!" ”

Yang Chao understood in an instant.

Pan Xun wanted to learn from Yang Chao's gold speculation in Shanghai when he sniped the British American financial group, and finally thwarted the attack of the British, and also triggered a financial crisis in London, killing the British and American banking groups.

Yang Chao knew that Pan Xun also wanted to set a rule for Britain and the United States again, but this time it was not for a certain force, but for these two countries, and I have to say that Pan Xun was more courageous.

"The afterlife is terrifying, this kid!"

Yang Chao scolded with a smile, he has always been interested in this guy Pan Xun, because he has never looked through this person.

This person is familiar with ancient books, very traditional, famous, studied education in the United States, wants to talk less, does more, so it is difficult for you to know what he thinks.

Yang Chao can only analyze that this kind of person is a pragmatist, valuing real power rather than false fame, so he asked Mi Qing to find Pan Xun to take the team election a few years ago, and really won Li Fuan in one fell swoop.

"Election!"

Thinking of the election, Yang Chao's heart suddenly moved, he finally knew why Pan Xun, who had always been low-key, stood up this time.

He thought of Pan Xun's purpose of suddenly asking for orders to deal with Nanyang affairs this time, because this year is a general election year, and the Nanyang incident is the center of the entire public opinion, and if it is handled well, it will gain great prestige.

It is precisely because it is an election year that the competition between Li Fuan and Mi Qing is more intense, which is why this accident was caused, otherwise with the political level of either of them, they should not have handled it so badly.

Because they all know that this is not the time for war, and they will never release wedding photos one after another, and they will not let the Dutch misunderstand and cause deaths, resulting in the current ending.

But they contradicted each other at the time, and they were very careful about each other, for fear that the other party was stumbling on themselves, and no one wanted to wrestle in an election year, because their minds were all on the election campaign, so they came up with these stupid tricks.

"Don't fight between the two, and finally pick peaches for Pan Xun, and the snipe and mussels compete for the fisherman's profit."

Yang Chao thought of China's political situation, and unconsciously thought farther. (To be continued.) )
