Chapter 674: Five Nations Shipyard (2)

"Since the time when Wuchang was in charge of the army, Lao Tzu has been crazy, and Lao Tzu has been thinking all these years, is it important to be a member of the family? Or do people matter?

Now it seems that it is more important to be a person of the same race, and as for people, it is still necessary to distinguish between three, six, nine and so on.

Our Han people are a clan, to say that our Qing Dynasty is a clan, apart from this, the rest are not our clansmen, since they are not our clansmen, what does their life and death have to do with us?

Europe and the United States will definitely hate Lao Tzu in the future, but what about India and the Southeast Peninsula? This person is divided into three, six, nine and so on, that's what it means, those who can partner with us are people, and those who can't partner with us but oppose us are not people!

Since it is not a human being, this method can naturally be crazy, you look at the world, the strongest England started by looting, France, Eros, Germany, Millican, which one is clean?

Others come to rob us, it is better for us to abolish them first, as for the future, our descendants will decide, our generation is a beast! All the dirty and bad things, we have done it, and after the family business is handed over to the younger generations, they can naturally be the saints who are dignified and universal to the world! ”

The world or the situation forced Yang Meng to move forward, some things wanted to be resolved peacefully, Yang Meng thought, the opponent didn't want to, Yang Meng didn't know that he was taking an evil road, but after walking up, he knew that it was not so easy to stop.

"Third master! Taichen will naturally go back and do what you ordered, and there will be no discount in the slightest, but you also have to calm down and think about it, after all, some things are to be punished! ”

Retribution. Ding Taichen is also convinced. all these years. Patrick's business investigation team has also collected information about Yunyan, which is no different from the big smoker of the Qing Dynasty, which has been made for more than ten years, and many people in Europe and the United States today have seen the disadvantages of Yunyan, but Yunyan is the same as smoke, and even more powerful than smoke. It's hard to get rid of it.

What's more, in some countries, children also carry snuff bottles!

"Calm down? I'm afraid it won't work out over the years! We'll talk about it in the future, but we'll only look at the present.

Go down and do what you have just been told. Has Patrick used a business investigation team to investigate the harm of cloud smoke in the past two years? If there is, those materials will be destroyed together with the investigators, and Lao Tzu doesn't want to hear a trace of bad news! ”

Patrick also has Qin Ziqi's people by his side, and Yang Meng knows very well what he has done. Ding Taichen talked about retribution, and Yang Meng directly thought of that investigation. It's better to annihilate these things, and it's hard to keep the things that come out of the investigation secret!

"Got it, I'll do it!"

sighed secretly in his heart, Ding Taichen also waved away the thoughts just now, the third master's prestige in the Yang family is too strong, doing things against him, no one can except the old man of the Yang family, the third master wants to annihilate these things, that is, to prevent the evil consequences caused by Yunyan from reaching the ears of the old man, with such an order, the part of the commercial investigation team can only be destroyed together with the personnel.

"Chief, send a telegram to Yunnan and ask Qin Ziqi and Sun Boqing to come to Guangzhou with their wives!"

For Ding Taichen, Yang Meng is convinced, what he said this time undoubtedly gave Yang Meng a hint, many people in the shadow are involved in things that cannot be involved, and it seems that it is time to properly clean up.

Doing dirty things for a long time, using the same people for a long time, I'm afraid that the development of the shadow will become more and more deformed, and now there is no need to kill for purification, as long as a part of the shadow is transferred to the new army and trained bravely, scouts like mountain monkeys also need professionals like shadows to support, serve in the army for a few years, and after a batch of deaths, the rest of them don't have to be dealt with.

With wooden-hulled power barges, from Yunnan to Guangzhou, it will take two or three days, Dawan Shipyard is undoubtedly an excellent disguise, plus the Yang family's large number of imported machinery, a large number of power ships appear in Guangzhou, for foreigners, it is not very abrupt.

Bourblon may have to contact the local, not a month, the Xilin teaching plan is afraid that there will be no results, after contacting the local area, presumably the French side, in the near future, will also suppress the Xilin teaching plan, after all, now in Guangzhou is their own manufacturer of cloud smoke, this bit of face France still has to give.

Pashali on the English side has already left Guangzhou for Hong Kong Island, what to do Yang Meng generally knows that the Hong Kong governor of Hong Kong Island is the same plenipotentiary minister as Bourblon, Mai Lian and others, and now the decision of England is on Hong Kong Island, not Guangzhou.

After a short period of calm, England and France will respond accordingly, and as for Millican, there is one Renres, which is enough to suppress Mailian, after all, Millican's national policy is very different from England.

The arrival of the lady group, Yang Meng did not hide it, it was nothing more than Lian'er's identity, few people in Guangzhou knew, and there was nothing wrong with taking his wife to Lixiang Garden with great fanfare.

On the day of the arrival of Lian'er and others, Yang Meng invited a large number of officials from the Liangguang official office to a banquet, Ye Mingchen and his men and horses naturally would not give face, Pan Shicheng, Guangdong's political envoy and some officials who were entangled with Yang Meng all wanted to give face, after a banquet, for the Yang family's magnificence, the officials of the two Guangxi also had a general understanding.

These things naturally can't be hidden from Ye Mingchen, and giving Yang Meng some eye medicine behind his back is also a convenient thing for Ye Mingchen, but these things are good things for the imperial court, the Yang family is rich, the military aircraft and the emperor all know, and the resurgence of Yunnan copper depends on the Yang family, and the Yang family has some family resources, which is also reasonable.

Wives and concubines, this matter of the military and the emperor took the initiative to ignore, on this matter they saw Yang Laosan's loyalty, Guangzhou is not a stable territory, once the foreign Yi is in trouble, Guangzhou will be invaded by the war, Yang Laosan can bring his family to Guangzhou, enough to show his intentions, in Jiujiang, Yang Laosan did not carry his family.

As for the shipyard matter, Peng Yunzhang directly agreed, building foreign ships is not a bad thing for the imperial court, whether it is grain by sea, or Gongwei Jinkou and other ports, steam ships are a good choice, there is no threat from foreigners. It's hard to do. After that, it makes sense to agree.

And it's done by the merchants. Even if there are objections in the court, it will be turned off in the future, and it is too unwise to embarrass Yang Laosan in this matter.

The edict to set up a shipyard has arrived, Tiffany has also come, and Pashali, who went to Hong Kong Island to ask for instructions, has also returned, and the joint venture shipyard should also be officially carried out.

"Taechen. You contact the merchants of Britain, France and the United States, and I will send a note to the ministers of Britain, France and the United States. ”

The ministers of Britain, France and the United States, after receiving Yang Meng's active note, were somewhat surprised, commercial banquets were not uncommon in Europe and the United States, but they were extremely rare objects in the Qing Dynasty.

The venue of the banquet was still Yang Meng's Nanyang minister's yamen. His yamen was a large mansion that had been rebuilt, and it was easy to find a big house to set up a banquet hall.

Inside the Chinese architecture. The decoration is European-style, the long table, gold and silver utensils, crystal wine utensils used in the banquet, red wine from France, fruits from Southeast Asia, Western food made by foreign chefs, cold dishes made by Qing Dynasty chefs, and a combination of Chinese and Western postures, Yang Meng is full of them in this small banquet hall.

Dress, Yang Meng naturally can't wear it, if it spreads, it's not controversial?

Several reporters from Europe and the United States in Guangzhou, and several cameras from Yang's family were also brought to the banquet by Yang Meng.

Among the people who came, Yang Meng didn't know much, but Andre and Renlei were old friends of Yang Meng, and when they saw Yang Meng in a brocade robe, in the surprise of Bourblon and Mai Lian, these two hurried a few steps and took the initiative to go up to say hello.

"Andrey, Renres, you're here too! It just so happens that you want to participate in this big deal, you should have become a rich man in the past few years, right?

Come, get acquainted, this is my secretary, Miss Tiffany, and this is my staff officer, Mr. Patrick, these two still need the two of you to introduce the merchants of various countries. ”

Hospitality is only for friends, after seeing Andre and Renres, Yang Meng found a couch and sat down, and the matter of greeting the guests was handed over to the four people, Andre and Renlei also gave face, and took Tiffany and Patrick, and began to greet the people from the embassies of various countries and the businessmen invited by Ding Taichen.

"Third master, should you deal with it? You are too arrogant for foreigners. ”

Ding Taichen, who was also dressed in a brocade robe, bowed down to Yang Meng's side, which attracted the attention of a group of foreign businessmen, this Mr. Ding is a man of the hour in Guangzhou, and when dealing with him, all foreign businessmen have never seen him so low-voiced!

"What I want is that they are unattainable, Lao Tzu will go up, and when he talks later, no one will believe him, just fight psychological warfare, you are busy with your go!

When those people are not big, they will come up, and the place where I don't see Lao Tzu doing it is used to meet guests? ”

"You're smart!"

After giving a thumbs up, Ding Taichen also went to greet the foreign businessmen he had invited, and when it was not too long, Ren Reis took Mai Lian and sat opposite Yang Meng.

"General Yang ......"

"It's not General Yang, it's time to call it Yang Butang now, now I am the secretary of the military department of the Qing Dynasty and the minister of Nanyang, and the government, military, and commerce of the five major commercial ports are all within my jurisdiction."

interrupted Ren Lei's words, General Yang is General Yang, just a code name, in the next period of time, Yang Meng will show his true face, as for this title of General Yang, it is better to slowly dissipate.

"Yang Butang, this transaction ......"

As a broker and a businessman, Renres's sense of interest is also excellent, and he paid close attention to Yang Meng's previous words.

"What are the benefits of building the world's largest shipyard?"

"Shipyard? This is a long-term investment! ”

As soon as I heard that it was a shipyard, Renlei was also lacking in interest, the world's largest shipyard was completed, and I am afraid that it would be five or six years later, and the results would be too slow.

"What if I start investing and within 10 years, I guarantee a 30% return?"

"What about the conditions?"

Thirty percent of the income is guaranteed every year for ten years, and Renlei believes in the strength of this General Yang, so it is necessary to invest, but the 30% return must be accompanied by additional conditions, and the investment is 30% of the income, and it seems that this General Yang is not short of money.

"Funds! Technology! Mechanic! ”

"Oh...... This is very simple, if Yang Butang wants to build such a shipyard, he can complete it independently! ”

"The new shipyard will spend more than 10 million taels of silver to build more than 100 large docks, and the schools, iron works, and machine factories involved in the ships are all available.

This shipyard is based on a small island, and I also have difficulties in terms of funds, and with the help of this shipyard, I can also bring the relationship between the Qing Dynasty and other countries closer. ”

Yang Meng's few words aroused Ren Lei's interest, the two are still interest-oriented, and as for friendship, it will be a matter of time.

After Ren Lei translated what Yang Meng said to Mai Lian, the Minister Plenipotentiary of Millican was also a little shocked, and the shipyard with an investment of 10 million taels of silver is more than 10 million US dollars and millions of pounds! Such a shipyard is really the world's first shipyard.

"We can support it!"

As a minister, Mai Lian did not dare to give up such an opportunity, and once he was scolded by the merchants, he would do it as a minister.

"It's the best, in a few days, let's take a look at the location of the shipyard, many things are already being done, two of you!"

Millican is the best beachhead, and to be honest, this Mailian is not as good as Nylace! Whether he, the minister, agrees or not, it doesn't matter to Yang Meng. (To be continued......)
