Old Karen was born a commoner, it can be said that he is a poor man, he was born in a big country, he had no money, no house and no car when he was young, just like many young people now, but this guy still has the spirit of hardship and hard work.

However, according to historical records, this guy's father is a squire, and the squire actually doesn't have much money, that is, he is a little better than other ordinary people, he can eat and dress warmly, of course, Cromwell also has a hard worker, and his academic performance is at least very good, in today's words, at least at the level of a scholar, otherwise he would not be able to enter Cambridge University.

But from the age of 18, like the bloody plot in many novels, this guy's family has a fusion, because the main labor force in the family, that is, the elder Cromwell, has died, so he has to give up his studies and go home to help his mother take care of the farm.

If it goes on like this, maybe Cromwell will be a good farmer, maybe he can expand the family farm several times, after all, he is a scholar, knowledge is power, but the fault is that he is a reader, and he has studied and entered Cambridge, so his knowledge will definitely not be the same as that of ordinary country farmers, and he naturally thinks more.

Young Cromwell thought that he couldn't be a farmer for the rest of his life, so how could this guy think about how to make money to become the CEO and marry Bai Fumei, this guy's idea was good, but at the same time, he also took action, and at the age of 21, he successfully married the daughter of a businessman, and the cornerstone of his peak has been laid.

It was from this year that his ambitions became even greater, and he was no longer willing to be just a CEO, but had to participate in the management of the country, so in 1626, when the king ordered the election of two representatives in Huntington to attend his third Parliament, Cromwell got his wish and became a councillor, and his path changed radically.

It was also in this year that he became a member of the House of Commons. It can be regarded as really involved in the decision-making of national affairs, but the House of Commons belongs to the common class in Britain, and the real decision-making power is the House of Lords, which is controlled by the nobles.

However, Cromwell did not miss this opportunity to learn, where he learned a lot of valuable experience in political struggle, and also made many future comrades-in-arms here.

Race's rise to prominence began when he married a London merchant, but he was still far from being a member of parliament for a few more years before he re-emerged in 1638 when the Scots revolted.

In order to raise money and suppress the uprising, Charles I had to convene Parliament. The radicals in this parliament decided that the time had come to speak out against the tyranny of the crown. Squire Cromwell, a councillor from Cambridgeshire, became a leading figure in the idea.

It can be seen that Cromwell has not been idle in the past few years of recuperation at home, and must be planning everything in his heart.

By 1642, Cromwell had led the Parliamentarian army to defeat the royal army, a victory that established his leadership within the parliamentary party and became the de facto commander of the army.

With the army, of course, it was different, and Cromwell's ambition was naturally to overthrow the royalists and subsequently establish a bourgeois republic. But the crossing knows that this guy didn't later, but carried out another dictatorship.

This guy may have had enough, so he finally decided to dictatorship. In the face of huge interests, this guy began to embark on the path of betrayal of the people.

In the end, it is pitiful enough that this guy was pulled out of the whip corpse when he died, but now these are not what Yu Bowen needs to worry about him, and now it is time to talk about what kind of benefits Clen can give Australia.

What Australia needs is profit. It cannot be completely supported without the drive of profit, which is a loss-making transaction in terms of investment.

At present, Cromwell has completely grasped the control of the army, and it can be said that he has a certain right to speak. It's just that the British in Southeast Asia can't listen to him, it's hard to say.

"Mr. Fink, we in Australia would love to be friends with His Excellency General Cromwell, but I don't know what Your Excellency can give us."

Yu Bowen glanced at the visitor, and the basic requirement had been given in China, that is, if Britain could sell its colony in Malacca in the Far East.

Cromwell is not yet fully in control of the power, but to a certain extent, he is not afraid that he will regret it as long as he signs a contract with him, even if he regrets it, it doesn't matter, the Australian warship will sail directly over, and the soldiers will not succeed in landing.

Of course, Lao Ke didn't know what the Australians really thought, and he meant to exchange a colony in North America for supplies.

The colonies in North America are too far away to be of much use to the current Australians, and the living conditions in that place are not so easy, especially in the 17th century, when there were no large heating facilities, winter was a big problem.

Therefore, as an expansionist, Huang Fu basically did not consider expansion like North America, at least in the past few years.

"We can give it here in the Americas, to Australia, to the ports and land here, you see." Fink pointed to a piece of Virginia in later generations.

Yu Bowen shook his head and disagreed, Cromwell would actually want to exchange this place, this place is of no use to Australia, and it can even be said that even if it is won, it is impossible for Australia to immigrate here on a large scale in the next two years.

"It's too far away, Mr. Fink, and with all due respect, Australia doesn't have that much energy to manage it, so it has to be close to the Australian mainland." Yu Bowen said this, which is equivalent to reminding the other party that the map of Southeast Asia should be taken out, and what we need is the land here.

At present, the power on the Malay Peninsula is mainly divided into four parties, of which the Dutch control the territory is the largest, followed by the Spanish and British, although Australia has expanded a lot in several expansion campaigns, but the control area is still very small compared to the first three.

Therefore, Australia hopes to take this generation and the entire Malay Peninsula must pay a certain price, among which Britain has a piece of land bordering Australia, if this territory can be won, Australia can directly link a piece of enclave from the Dutch in the later period, which is also conducive to the army defense of the Malacca government.

Fink's ability to negotiate shows that he is a very smart man, so close to the Australians that you don't have to think about it to think of a few places, and there is no other place except the Malay Peninsula.

So he quickly took out a map of England's colonies in Southeast Asia for Yu Bowen to run. (To be continued.) )
