Chapter 592: Smashed Yourself in the Foot

Charles would never have thought that such a thing would happen to him, although this incident has little to do with him, as ambassador to Australia, his main job is still responsible for transmitting exchanges and trade between the two countries.

Most of the time he has nothing to do, not so much that the ambassador seems like a thankless role.

It's not like the governor can manage a large colony, there is a lot of oil and water, but there is no oil and water here, so the Spaniards are not willing to be any ambassadors, only those who have nothing to do with it will be sent.

The only good thing about Charles is that you can enjoy a lot of things in Australia that you don't enjoy, and at the same time, the living environment in Australia is much better than other places, and the clean and tidy streets are not comparable to other places.

He actually came to Australia with a mixed qualification, once he mixed up, maybe he would be transferred to a place to serve as the governor, and there would be a lot of oil and water, but now that this matter is out, he has scolded the earl who sent spies into Australia in China for being incomplete.

In the conversation with Zhao Shijie, he has always been in a weak position, it can be said that in the negotiation process, he has not grasped the initiative at all, this situation is very wrong, but there is no way to change it.

If he could, he would have hoped that Blomo and these guys would commit suicide, how could these stupid people be caught, and he confessed everything, what ace spies are false.

He had already used the Australian telegraph to send the news back home, and since the advent of the telegraph, a device that transmits information against the sky, countries have begun to like this thing, and this thing is simply a weapon for contacting people thousands of miles away.

When the news returned to Spain, when everyone saw that they had definite evidence, and that the person who sent the evidence was likely to be Dutch, they were furious, and originally just wanted to lead the trouble to the east and let the Australians pay attention to France. Unexpectedly, the Dutch came in with a kick and finally put Spain in a passive situation.

The telegram had already made it clear that the Netherlands intended to take over the ships of Christmas Island, which was absolutely unacceptable to the Spaniards, and they were not willing to give it to France and England, who in their eyes were a bunch of rebellious mud-legged hillbillies.

Now that they have been tricked by this group of hillbillies, how can they not be angry, and now they need to give an explanation to the Australians.

The attack on the Dutch was brought up again by him, and although there was no winner or loser in the battle with the Dutch, Spain still liked to talk with their fists and were not their opponent at sea. Not necessarily on land, the Spanish phalanx is famous.

This is something that even the Australians affirmed, and they gave the Spanish phalanx.

In the past two years, Spain's army has been equipped with Australian weapons, and with the help of these weapons, Spain has managed to retain its position as the hegemon of the European continent, at least for now, no country dares to challenge their authority alone.

Explaining how to deal with this is the most important thing they need to do right now. The Australians have given a time frame in which they will stop the contract if the issue is not dealt with within that timeframe. Australians will do it, and they will do what they say.

Charles wrote that it was the Dutch involved, and that a Spanish nobleman seemed to have discovered the New World.

The Dutch can find evidence that Spain sent agents, then Spain can also find evidence that the Netherlands sent agents. This is not difficult for them, but how to explain Blomo and the others, I'm afraid that no one will come out to take the blame.

If you want to fool the Australians easily, this time it's not so simple. People have evidence of your crime, and you have to admit that everything speaks with facts.

Australians seem to be interested in the land of northern Luzon. This time we can transfer it to them at a low price. These were the words of another aristocratic lord, for whom the transfer of land in the Far East was no longer of much interest, because of the strong rise of the Netherlands, the main focus of the overseas colonies was on South America.

The nobleman's idea was well received, and although the north was in the hands of the Spaniards, it was not very peaceful, and the natives of the island often attacked, and the Spanish could not wipe out the natives here because of the concentration of their forces in Manila.

Now it seems that they are selling the colonies at a low price, which is actually a kind of transfer of bad debts.

If they could, they would not use this method, after all, for them there are still interests in the Far East, but the strong rise of the Netherlands and Australia in the region determines that Spain cannot do anything.

The decision of Spain soon reached Australia, and Charles ran to find Zhao Shijie after reading it.

This is good news, and they must be very happy for the Australians, the king of Spain has found out who did such a dirty thing, and the nobleman has been punished, and in a letter he apologizes and is willing to sell northern Luzon to Australia at a low price.

Australia has revealed several times that it wants to buy northern Luzon as a base for anchoring and replenishment, but Spain has not given an answer, so proposing to resell at this time is also a disguised admission of its own fault.

As long as Australia takes over northern Luzon, it is equivalent to them forgiving Spain, and the cooperation between the two sides can be carried out, if not, it means that Australia does not want to cooperate with Spain.

However, according to the discussion of those nobles in Spain, they felt that it was very likely that Australia would receive it, because Spain also exported a hundred Merino sheep to Australia this time.

You must know that merino sheep are not so easy to export in Spain, and this time the agreement to export shows that Spain has made a big concession.

Looking at the list Charles brought, Zhao Shijie smiled knowingly and patted Charles on the shoulder.

"Mr. Charles, I am satisfied with this, but I hope that you are not making the same low-level mistakes, which will be a very serious trust problem for our cooperation, you should know what integrity means to Australians, and we hope that our friends can be honest."

Got what he wanted, Zhao Shijie was naturally happy, the 100 merino sheep were his personal belongings, he and Yang Wenwen cooperated with the textile factory is cooperating, the demand for wool will be very large, it is necessary to expand the domestic merino sheep breeding, so the 100 heads will enter Zhao Shijie's ranch for breeding.
