Sang Yu has actually always had Sang Yu's thoughts.
For this matter, although she has been instructed by His Royal Highness King An, try not to take too drastic actions lightly, so as not to be detected by the Qing Demon, lose the good situation of Angel's trading house, and thus endanger the safety of Shanghai Station. However, she did not want to keep the arms in Shanghai. With her own keen sense, she knew that the Celestial Army might soon come to Shanghai, and the two armies would face each other, and this batch of munitions might bring unnecessary trouble to her army. Therefore, she and Aihua repeatedly planned and decided to make full use of Jin Nengheng's eagerness to get rid of the arms and find ways to transport the arms to Zhenjiang.
It was at this time that Aihua, who had been "wandering" all day, met the first mate of the munitions ship in the tavern, and several black followers behind him. From the deferential demeanor and demeanor of the black henchmen to the first mate, he sensed the strangeness inside. After consulting Fang Jingbo, Aihua finally learned a new term, "black slave". He also learned that there were more than 20 such black slaves on the munitions. It turns out that in this seemingly powerful America, where they worship Christ and proclaim their fraternity, there are still a large number of such black slaves, who have no rights of their own, but only a talking thing by their masters. What a coincidence, this black slave system, no matter how you look at it, looks like the flag slave system of the Qing Demon.
Aihua, who rolled out on the battlefield, immediately realized that this was a good opportunity that could be used completely.
In the concession, the will of the government was not mentioned, and the expatriates living in Shanghai from various countries were far more applauded than hated the Taiping regime in Tianjing. Because of this, many foreign brothers even joined the ranks of helping the Little Knife Society and guarding the county seat of Shanghai. In the concession and in the taverns, there are all kinds of legends about the Taiping Army, as well as the beautiful vision of the Celestial Empire for everyone to be equal and share the peace in the whole world. It is impossible for the black brothers, who often follow their masters in and out of the tavern, not to hear it, and it is impossible not to be moved when they hear it.
So, Aihua and Sangyu decided to plot a rebellion against the black slaves on the arms ship. Just in case, Sang Yu still asked Aihua to continue to live a "idle" life, mingling in the concession and the Qing military camp, making friends with wine and meat, and occasionally going back and forth between the county seat and the concession, so as to use the power of the heavenly army in the city in case of any moment. And she herself has to arouse Jin Daban's appetite first, and then pinch Xu Naizhao's umbrella firmly in her hand. At the same time, Bishop Luo Xiaoquan got on board and used the excuse of missionary work to secretly do the work of the black slaves.
Xu Naizhao hated Sang Yu's inflated arms prices, but he also knew that Sang Yu had American foreign banks and consulates behind him, and besides, Angel Commercial Bank had begun to cut off the help of the bandits in the city, so he naturally didn't have too many thoughts after he still got Sang Yu's private "offering".
Even when he asked Gilhanga to investigate Angel's possible illegal business endlessly, he felt very dismissive. It is not easy for a young woman to marry a playboy who is several years younger than herself, and she can provoke a big business house. Besides, where will a woman who loves money have any thoughts, no matter what she does, she will not stand on the side of the court in accordance with the rules, and she will really be willing to be wrapped up with the bandits. Especially when the concession excavated a protective ditch at the border in case of an emergency, Angel Commercial Bank not only contributed money and efforts, but also took the initiative to organize dozens of business house partners to undertake the task of guarding a section of the outer trench. Xu Naizhao greatly appreciated this move, and he felt that his analysis of Sang Yu was not wrong.
The work of the black brothers is even more smooth. These slaves, who have lost their most basic rights, have a more urgent hope for an equal paradise.
Now, what is needed is the cooperation of the vice consul Jin and the senior class of the foreign bank.
Sang Yu looked at Fang Jingbo. After a long period of contact, this cultured person with his own thoughts left a good impression on her, and he could be transformed into a capable talent on the hidden front of the Celestial Empire. "Alas, Mister, if this batch of munitions can really be brought to the west, of course we will be richly rewarded. But after thinking about it, I always feel that there are still a few questions. ”
"Tell me about it, I'll figure it out." Fang Jingbo leaned towards Sang Yu. For this batch of munitions, from the bottom of his heart, he also hopes that it will be sent to the west immediately. If he really had that power, he could even go to Shanghai City for complete nothing. The actions of the heavenly army in the city made him see the hope of the motherland.
Sang Yu nodded and thought for a while, "First, the guns are easy to say, Xibian'er has already captured some from their opponents, and they will not be strange to use." But this Western artillery is different, no one can control it, and it's not a pile of scrap metal? Second, Yang Yunxiang of the Guangdong Navy Division went to the Yangtze River, and this person is a tough guy who is not even afraid of foreigners. I'm afraid that level is very difficult. ”
"Yes, it's easy to control the artillery, but if it doesn't, I'll go there with the ship. I studied industry, and it's easy to tinker with these things. Fang Jingbo frowned and thought, "It's just that this section of the water division's river defense is a little troublesome."
"You can't go over there." Sang Yu shook her head, "People are still planning to open the business house to the United States, if you leave, who will people rely on in the future?" ”
"Missan is going to the United States?" Fang Jingbo looked at Sang Yu as if he didn't know her. Aihua wants to become a French citizen, obviously planning to go to France to develop, why does she want to go to the United States instead?
"Of course, there is a big business to be done in the United States, and I want to join forces with Mister to build a big business house somewhere, yes, to be the number one business house in the world." Sang Yu looked at Fang Jingbo, who was full of surprise, and said seriously, "It's too chaotic here, and you have to worry about doing business." ”
"Actually, it's the same everywhere." Fang Jingbo smiled lightly, feeling that Sang Yu thought too much about the United States.
Sang Yu said to herself nonchalantly, "It's good to be at home for a thousand days, but it's difficult to go out for a while." Traveling all the way to the United States, of course, it will not be so easy, as long as there is the assistance of the Mister side, I can make a lot of money, hehe, see who dares to underestimate me. ”
Fang Jingbo listened to Sang Yu's "grandiose" ideals, he wanted to laugh, this woman really sees the United States as a golden paving. However, after thinking about it, he felt a little beautiful, if they really went to the United States together, then they could be together every day. Hey, that's for later, and the immediate concern is the whole shipload of munitions. He waved his hand and pulled Sang Yu's train of thought back to the point, "Then what idea does Miss Sang have to solve the problem of these arms?" ”
"Tell Jin Taipan, I bought the black slaves on the ship." Sang Yu grinned and blinked a pair of big beautiful eyes, "I know, these black slaves are not worth much to you, maybe they are not as good as the price of a cattle." I can pay them a little more to redeem themselves. Then, get them acquainted with the use of the cannons, and I'm going to sell them to the west again. Best of both worlds. ”
This Missan, I actually want to be a human trafficker again. Fang Jingbo nodded, "This is easy, as long as someone is willing to pay, the captain will not be unwilling." So, how to deal with the inspection of the water master? ”
Sang Yu looked up at the roof, and then at Fang Jingbo, "Your Qichang foreign bank is very wealthy, even if it happens, Daqing will not make much of a big move." So, the way we work together needs to change. If the goods cannot be delivered to the west, we at Angel cannot afford the loss. ”
