The negotiation ended hastily, and with full of worry, Smith hurriedly got off the ship, as for those people in the business alliance, he couldn't control it, and the huge conflict of interest had made the loose European business alliance disappear in General Yang's few words.

For the people of the European Business Alliance, Yang Meng didn't keep much, and before they came up to set up a relationship, Yang Meng also took Wei Zhiqing and Ding Taichen out of the cabin, and after they left the cabin, they did not get off the ship, but turned around and entered another cabin.

"Exquisite negotiation skills, General Yang, do you want to be emperor?"

"Long time no see, Renres, what are you asking for? This is a big crime in my country to raid the house and destroy the door, knowing the Tao and saying it, but two different results, do you want me to say it? ”

"Oh...... I'm just kidding! Thank you very much General Yang for helping me, there is a deal, I wonder if General Yang is willing to do it? ”

If you can get Millican's warship as a venue for negotiations, who else has this ability except Renres? After a simple greeting, the topic between the two turned to business.

"You personally went out to be a broker, it seems that it is the relationship of the military, what goods? What conditions? ”

Whether it is Renlei or Colt, they are just an agent of Yunyan, the huge Milican market is not something that the two of them can swallow, and making some intermediary fees as a broker is also something that Renres often does, but these things are all talking about Renlei and Pan Shicheng, and I am afraid that the other party's origin is not small.

"Five merchant ships converted from battleships, only the hull does not have artillery! How about a three-ton cloud smoke? ”

Grace spoke like this, and there was more in it. Merchant vessel? Merchant ships with a displacement of several thousand tons. It's only tens of thousands of taels of silver. At most, it is only about 100,000 taels, and three tons of cloud smoke and 300,000 taels, even if it is a new medium-sized warship, it can be bought at this price.

It sounds like blackmail, but Yang Meng knows that the additional things are definitely worth the money.

"Yes! What are the conditions? ”

"A dozen drawings. The drawings of shipbuilding are available from all countries, although they are not very detailed, but the key things are there! ”

"Then deal! The boat is moored in Huangpu, and Yunyan can pay half of it first! After all, fifteen tons at a time is also a burden for us! ”

"Praise for your generosity, there is one more thing, I wonder if General Yang will agree?"

"Speak up! There's nothing to say between us! ”

"Five tons of free cloud smoke a year, the navy can help you settle some disputes! But only for small-scale conflicts. Too big, it's impossible! ”

"Understandable! Ten tons of cloud smoke. How about stationing a fleet of a dozen warships in Guangzhou? After all, our business has been done big enough, and it is also the duty of the military to protect the interests of the merchants of Millican! ”

"It's going to take time, but it should be fine."

"Good! Eleven tons a year, it's up to you to hand it over! ”

"Praise for your generosity!"

After a few words, Yang Meng brought in a free thug, not only the common people need Yunyan, but the army is the same, this thing is sucked when the war starts, for the guts, there is undoubtedly a huge benefit, it seems that the military of Millican has realized this.

"Army, can you cooperate?"

"General Yang, what do you mean?"

"The decommissioned ordnance, as well as the ordnance in stock, will double the flow of funds, as long as there is no big war, there must be no problem!"

"This takes time, the people in the army are not all businessmen, there are still a lot of old stubborns, this kind of business, it takes time, but it should be about the same!"

"Can we go one step further in our cooperation, can the Milicon Army Academy open a branch in Guangzhou?"

Now the only one who is fully open to Yang Meng is Mi Lijian, the army, if it is to be corrupted, the speed is also extremely fast, the military has always been the lowest paid group of people, from generals to soldiers, compared with businessmen, the conditions are not generally poor.

Using Yunyan as military funds, such a large cost, it is not easy to pass, Yang Meng of course knows the needs of Yunyan, does not spend money, and produces knowledge and manpower, which is undoubtedly a very good choice for the generals of the army.

"Hmm...... This should be okay, but it won't be too big! ”

Renlei is now the biggest military broker in Millican, and many people who were out of reach before are frequent visitors to Renlei Manor, and Renlei is still a little grateful to General Yang of the Qing Kingdom.

The growth of domestic status also made him feel that he had the confidence to sit on an equal footing with General Yang, and in the past, the pleasant greetings with a harmonious atmosphere would not appear between the two.

Yang Meng is undoubtedly welcome to Renres's attitude, if this Renlei is too afraid of himself, when he is doing things, he can't let go of his hands and feet, and the bold Renlei is what Yang Meng needs.

"It doesn't need to be too big, it's just some basic knowledge, all they want to teach is actual combat experience."

In military schools, the basic knowledge is almost the same, the difference is that the actual combat experience of the instructors, fighting according to the books, is to answer the old saying, talk on paper! Such a general, when he arrives on the battlefield, can't figure out how he died!

"I heard that there is a war on the Southeast Peninsula, doesn't General Yang need mercenaries? I have an elite force of more than 2,000 people! ”

After listening to Yang Meng's suggestion, Renlei also organized a mercenary army of his own, and the retired soldiers, the Indians of Millican, were the composition of this mercenary army.

"Do you dare to participate in a full-scale war with England on the Southeast Peninsula? Maybe the war will burn to India! ”

"Oh...... Then forget it! My 2,000 people, who also spent a lot of money, all died in the Southeast Peninsula, and they lost money!

General Yang, if you tell me this, don't you ......?"

As soon as he heard that it was a full-scale war, Renres immediately coaxed, and the strength of the Red Shirts was a household name in Millican, although Millican eventually achieved independence. There is a lot of blood that can be shed. If it's a local battle. Two thousand men is still a force, but in a full-scale war, two thousand people may only be the number of deaths in one day.

General Yang is a very wise person, and in the process of dealing with him, there is basically no nonsense, since he has taken out the affairs of the Southeast Peninsula, he must have a plan.

"Huh...... France! ”

"Military or political?"

"When it comes to Annan's belonging. You tell me? ”

"Uh...... What a big deal! ”

swallowed the curse back into his stomach, although he felt that he could be on an equal footing with General Yang, but in the face of General Yang, Renres still maintained that caution, and after hearing the word Annan, Renlei also fell into deep thought.

Millican's rise was directed at Mexico, and Millican had no colonies overseas, although it did not involve national interests. But when it came to the dispute between Britain and France, Renres did not dare to talk nonsense.

"Matchmaking. I can still do it, but no matter how high the level is, it is not something I can touch, I can only give it a try, and the success rate is not guaranteed! ”

Renres's reply to this matter was still extremely cautious, and there were also factions in Millican, and there were pro-British and pro-French camps, and he did not dare to get involved too deeply in this matter.

"Hmmm! Then you can try, the intermediary fee will not be less! Try to find some military personnel. ”

France is different from Millican, the current Millican has no ambition for the Qing Dynasty, but France is different, they also have common interests with England, whether they can convince France, Yang Meng is not very sure, Yang Meng is not afraid of war, but now one England is enough, in sparing a France, it is a burden.

"O wise man!"

With a sigh, Renres searched for the figure on the French side in his mind, this General Yang is definitely a professional politician, and his grasp of the situation is very accurate, and the use of the old feud between Britain and France is definitely a very successful thing.

"Tell me something real! In the next period, I need a large number of shore defense guns and fortress guns, old and new, as long as the range is enough! How much can you get for this? ”

The British naval offensive had to be guarded, and keeping Guangzhou was the most practical problem, as long as there were no problems in Guangzhou, no matter how big the scene was, Yang Meng would not be afraid.

"This is a good deal, General Yang, you don't mean to invest in a cement factory? This is the necessary material for the construction of the fortress! ”

It seems that this Renres's ambition is not small, he can see the huge market of the Qing Dynasty, but this market, Yang Meng does not allow outsiders to interfere, monopoly, is his goal, Renres's idea, it touches Yang Meng's bottom limit.

"Huh...... Arenes, isn't there enough for you to do on Millican's side? When you get involved in the Qing Dynasty, you have to be prepared to lose all your money! ”

Yang Meng's laughter became cold, and Ren Rees was also shocked, this temptation was a failure, as a broker, Ren Lei naturally had the ability to observe words and colors, and from Yang Meng's sneer, he heard the killing intention.

"General Yang, I mean I can introduce you to some factories in this area."

As soon as the conversation turned, Renres turned the ambiguous sentence to the suggestion.

"Hmmm! That's good, presumably there's a lot of demand on Millican's side, right? We can cooperate to build a factory in Millican, this Qing Dynasty has never been a free country, I can't play it now, let alone you!

I can also participate in ordinary business activities, if you have a good project, we might as well cooperate in depth.

Calculating the time, it is time for Colt to return from Europe, and you, me, Colt, and Morse can cooperate. ”

Yang Meng also told the truth, it is impossible for Yunnan to let Renlei interfere, and other realms of the Qing Dynasty, I am afraid that Renlei will not be able to enter, and even if he enters, it is easy to lose all his money, but in Milican cooperation, the two have this strength.

"This is the best, Colt's fleet has anchored from Europe more than 20 days ago, and they will almost arrive in Guangzhou in a week, and we will talk about it in detail then."

For a broker like Renres, intelligence is the most important thing, and Colt's itinerary is naturally what he is concerned about.

"Hmmm! So be it! This is my big butler Ding Taichen, he will be fully responsible for the business in Guangzhou in the future, and you can just find him for business matters. ”

Introducing Ding Taichen to Renres, Yang Meng stopped talking, and let the two communicate in Chinese for a while, with Renlei as an assistant, it is undoubtedly much easier to open the door to Europe.

Colt is purely military, Morse is purely commercial, and Renlei is miscellaneous, and the small group he formed is still quite combative, as long as he wins France, then this trip to Guangzhou will be considered a success.

There was not much time, and the exchange between Ding Taichen and Ren Lei ended, looking at the two people with smiles on their faces, Yang Meng also nodded to Ding Taichen, although this kid's eagle language is not very standard, but it can still be listened to.

"Renres, I'll leave it to you over there in France, I'll be very busy these days, as for other things, let's talk about it when Colt comes!

Let's take our leave first, there are many people on the ship, so you can stay! ”

After finishing speaking, Yang Meng lightly hugged his fists, and left the cabin with Ding Wei and the two, and after getting off the boat, the group got into the carriage and left the dock directly, and went straight to Lixiang Garden.

The situation in Guangzhou is very unstable today, and it is difficult to guarantee that after this meeting, it will undoubtedly be extremely unsafe for the East India Company to stay in a crowded place without playing any shady tricks. (To be continued......)
