"Your Excellency, you also know that not long ago, because of the death of the former Beiyang Minister Yuan Shikai, the imperial court had to make a compromise, in order to make the current governor of the three eastern provinces Wang Bin have no intention of sending troops outside the border, the imperial court had to announce the establishment of the three eastern provinces and let Wang Bin serve as the governor of the three eastern provinces, so that the imperial court can divide its energy to deal with those with bad intentions."

After listening to Tie Liang's words, Lin Quanzhu finally understood what Tie Liang's purpose was for coming to him this time, it turned out that Tie Liang wanted the empire to send troops to suppress Wang Bin, but in Lin Quanzhu's opinion, now that the empire has just recovered from the war with the Russians, although suppressing Wang Bin is not a problem, it should not send troops.

Immediately, Lin Quanzhu said to Tie Liang: "Your Excellency Shangshu, this should be a contradiction and dispute within your Great Qing Kingdom, our Great Japanese Empire is really difficult to make a move, otherwise, I can come forward to deal with it, what do you think, Your Excellency?" ”

After graduating from Tokyo Imperial University in 1887, he joined the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and served as Consul at the Consulate in Yantai, China. In 1898, he served as the counselor of the embassy, and once acted as the embassy affairs, during the Guangxu reform, he took Japan as his teacher, and it can be said that he was the most important liaison between the two governments. Subsequently, he sent a joint letter to Prime Minister Yamen with ministers from various countries, forcing the Qing government to assure that it had no intention of abolishing Emperor Guangxu.

In the first half of Lin Quansuke's body seems to have an indissoluble bond with China, after which Lin Quanzhu signed the second Japan-Korea agreement with South Korea on behalf of Japan, after seven years of activities, finally made Korea a protectorate of Japan, after the signing of this agreement, Lin Quanzhu was named a baron, at that time under Ito Hirobumi, and Katsura Taro, Komura Shoutaro and called the three masters of Korea.

After the agreement was signed, Hayashi returned to China as Japan's minister to the Qing Dynasty, and it can be said that although Hayashi was born into a family of Aizu feudal lords who were known as rebels at the time of the Meiji Restoration, he actually showed appropriate resourcefulness and courage after entering the diplomatic world.

As soon as Tie Liang heard Lin Quanzhu's words, he knew that if there were not enough interests, the Japanese would not send troops to suppress Wang Bin, so it was time to throw out some bait that would make the Japanese excited enough.

Immediately, Tie Liang spoke: "Your Excellency, since we have asked your country to send troops, we will definitely not let your country send troops in vain. ”

As soon as Tie Liang's words came out, he attracted Lin Quanzhu, as a minister who thinks about his own national interests, it is the most important thing to be able to bring benefits to his country, so as soon as Lin Quanzhu heard that he would not send troops in vain, he knew that the Qing Dynasty must want to cede some benefits to his own side.

"Oh, what do you mean, Your Excellency?" Lin Quanzhu showed his doubts very appropriately.

"Your Excellency, you should know that the mineral resources outside this pass are very rich." Tie Liang said this suddenly.

Why did the Japanese fight with the Russians before, it was not that the Russians occupied a lot of resources outside the border, and the Japanese were drooling from these resources, so the Japanese wanted to discuss with the Russians: Brother, this fat little brother is also greedy, can you give the little brother a little bit?

As soon as the Russians heard the request of the Japanese, they had not eaten enough of this piece of fat, how could they give it to you, a country that did not know whether to live or die, so the Japanese got angry and began to fight with the Russians on the grounds that Russia did not withdraw its troops from outside the Guan, and after the battle, Japan finally got its wish and obtained the benefits outside the Guan.

This time, Tie Liang proposed to give Japan some benefits in exchange for taking out troops to suppress Wang Bin outside the Guan, so Lin Quanzhu began to be curious, could it be that this Tie Liang wanted to cede the mineral resources outside the Guan?

"Your Excellency Shangshu's words are very right, all kinds of resources are indeed very rich in this place outside the Guan, but I don't know why Your Excellency is saying this?"

"Your Excellency, I Tieliang will not say any more polite words, since your country knows that all kinds of resources outside the customs are very rich, don't you want to get more resources?"

After Tie Liang's words came out, Lin Quanzhu immediately determined that Tie Liang wanted the resources outside the gate in exchange for his own side to send troops to suppress Wang Bin.

"It seems that your country has made up its mind to suppress Wang Bin outside the Guan." This time, Lin Quanzhu finally straightened up and said to Tie Liang with a straight expression.

"Yes, so we will ask you to send troops to suppress Wang Bin at the cost of the development rights of some mineral resources outside the border." Tie Liang saw Lin Quanzhu say so formally, and he directly released the price he had paid.

After Lin Quanzhu saw that Tie Liang finally said the conditions for his side to send troops, he stopped going around in circles with Tie Liang, and Lin Quanzhu wanted to urgently know whether the price Tie Liang paid was worth persuading the military department to send troops.

"Your Excellency Shangshu, I don't know what kind of price you will pay, you must know that if the price you pay is too little, even if I want to help Your Excellency, I will not be able to convince the country."

"Your Excellency, please rest assured, the price we have given this time will definitely make your country agree to this deal."

Tie Liang's words made Lin Quanzhu even more curious about what kind of price the Great Qing Kingdom had come up with, and how sure Tie Liang would be that his side would send troops outside the border.

"Your Excellency Shangshu, what is the price of you just saying this but not saying it, which makes it difficult for me to judge whether the price you gave can impress the cabinet to send troops outside the customs!" No matter what the price is, he always needs to weigh it first, whether it is worth sending troops from the country, Lin Quanzhu thought in his heart.

"Of course, Your Excellency the Minister for the price we paid this time is the right to develop iron mines and coal mines in Benxi Land, what do you think of this price?"

After Tie Liang's words were finished, even Lin Quanzhu was a little shocked that this price was indeed something that the empire could not refuse, Japan is an island country with a higher thirst for resources than anyone else, especially after the war, Japan needs a lot of high-quality steel to build warships lost because of the Russo-Japanese War, and Japan's current military industry also needs a lot of high-quality steel, and Benxi outside the customs not only has the most thirsty high-quality iron ore in Japan, but also has rich reserves of coal, The price was enough for Japan to accede to the demands of the Qing Dynasty.

When these iron ores are in hand, it is enough to generate enough economic benefits for their country to build a few more warships, so Lin Quanzhu believes that as long as the news of this deal reaches China, both the Ministry of War and the Ministry of the Navy will do their best to facilitate this deal, it seems that the Qing Kingdom will do whatever it takes to suppress Wang Bin.

After determining the price given by the Qing State, Lin Quanzhu hurriedly said goodbye to Tie Liang and immediately rushed back to the embassy, sent the news back to China, and let the cabinet make a decision. (To be continued.) )
