Chapter 229: The Coup d'état of the Wa Kingdom
As a result, these scientists who have gone bankrupt for scientific and technological research have not been rewarded at all, which will make many of them impoverished and in debt, and these people will invite Du Fang Xiaoyu to China Collar with a high salary in the future, or to be a scientific researcher, or to be a teacher, anyway, to enrich the scientific and technological strength of China Ling.
This time, someone began to develop heavy machine guns and mortars, so this time Fang Xiaoyu took out these two weapons in order to immediately register patents, block the way of those scientists, and at the same time sell them in large quantities and occupy the international market.
After seeing the power of heavy machine guns and mortars, Prince Dresia bought a large number of heavy machine guns and mortars regardless of the high price, which made Fang Xiaoyu make a lot of money.
"These two weapons are indeed good things, but our army is already very strong, this is just icing on the cake, I wonder if the lord of the Dao Fang can sell us some naval weapons, so that our navy can also be strong." Prince Dresia asked again about naval technology, after all, this was one of the main purposes of his visit.
Fang Xiaoyu groaned: "This is not easy to do. It's not that we don't want to help, it's just that the sale of this warship to the countries of the Western Continent is a bit too blatant, and I think it will irritate the Saar Empire and the Nantes Empire too much, and it won't do your country any good. ”
Prince Dresia shook his head and said, "Your Excellency, you have misunderstood, we are not buying warships, but hoping that Your Lord can sell us the Artillery Barrel Retreat Technique. ”
After saying this, Prince Dresia was afraid that Fang Xiaoyu would not agree, so he added: "My country is willing to pay 30 million yuan to buy this technique." ”
"Spring Tube Retreat Technique?" Fang Xiaoyu was not stupid enough to sell his best hydraulic pipe withdrawal technique to others, but tried to name the spring pipe withdrawal technique that had been eliminated.
Unexpectedly, Prince Dresia wanted this technique, and when he heard Fang Xiaoyu's words, he nodded again and again.
Fang Xiaoyu said with a smile: "This can naturally be bought, but can your country increase the price more, you must know that this scientific researcher is not easy, I will always give them some bonuses." Fang Xiaoyu began to sit on the ground again.
Prince Dresia saw that the technique that the emperor had been thinking about day and night was in front of him, and immediately gritted his teeth and said, "How about 40 million." ”
"Deal." Fang Xiaoyu agreed with a smile, and also made Prince Dresia truthfully burdened.
Prince Dresia returned with a full load, although he later hinted to Fang Xiaoyu several times that he hoped that the Yaman Empire and the Chinese Empire would form a military alliance, Fang Xiaoyu pretended not to understand.
After several temptations, Prince Dresia finally understood the meaning of the Chinese leader, and now Fang Xiaoyu just wanted to bury his head in development, and did not want to get involved in the hegemony of the Western Continent, seeing Fang Xiaoyu's resolute attitude, Prince Dresia had no choice but to give up.
However, Prince Teresia still hoped to have more economic exchanges with the Chinese Empire, and strive to tie the economy of the Chinese Empire and the Yaman Empire together, so as to coerce the Chinese Territory policy to favor the Yaman Empire, or at least to unite with them against the Cossack Empire to reduce the pressure on the Eastern Front.
Fang Xiaoyu also had a bumper harvest, not only selling a large number of weapons, but also getting in touch with a number of large chambers of commerce in the Yaman Empire.
For the business aspect, Fang Xiaoyu is very careful, he will never let the other party have the opportunity to annex his company by financial means, so the Zhonghua Group Company has not reached an agreement with any Yaman Imperial Chamber of Commerce to jointly build a factory at all, but it is a trade agreement.
Several chambers of commerce in the Yaman Empire will be responsible for transporting the products of the Zhonghua Group back to the Western Continent and selling them.
Although Wu Yu has been in charge of the specific sales of Zhonghua Group Company in the West Continent, it is a pity that due to the short development time, the network cannot be fully rolled out.
Now with the participation of several large chambers of commerce in the Yaman Empire, relying on their strong sales network, the products of Zhonghua Ling will definitely sell more, and Fang Xiaoyu can also expand the industrial scale with confidence.
With the expansion of trade, more and more new products of Zhonghua Group Company have been introduced, which not only earns a lot of profits, but also drives the development of the entire territory. Even Wang Xuan, the god of war, couldn't help but send people to Zhonghua Ling to invest in the construction of a canning factory, using the large number of cattle and sheep produced in his territory to make all kinds of canned meat.
There are more and more funds, but all the construction funds have been saturated, although a large number of construction is still in progress, but the funds have already been in place, and there is no need to invest too much money.
After all, economic construction is a gradual process, and there is a limit to investing a lot of money to stimulate economic development in a short period of time, at least the infrastructure and talents are enough and good enough, so Fang Xiaoyu now wants to find a way for funds.
There has never been a country or region with such abundant funds as China Ling, if you tell any country government that China Ling's funds are too much to use, I am afraid that Fang Xiaoyu will be drowned by someone's spit.
Which promising national government is not careful about the country's finances, for fear of wasting a little, that is, Fang Xiaoyu can rely on a large number of his own high-profit products to gather funds in the early stage of construction, make profits several times in the war, and use grain to exploit the whole world to be so rich.
With the rapid development of industry, the industrial output value of Zhonghua Ling in 897 finally exceeded the agricultural output value and reached 53 billion Chinese yuan, of course, this is also due to the sharp decline in grain prices and the restoration of stability.
Although after two years of development, the economic growth rate has decreased a lot, but in terms of the base of the previous year, it is already very terrifying, and the most important thing is that this year's steel output has reached 3 million tons, and the pig iron output has also reached 7.2 million tons, which is twice as high as two years ago.
At a time when the Chinese leaders were immersed in construction and vigorously developing the economy, there was tremendous turmoil in the domestic political arena of the Japanese state. Many people at the lower levels were dissatisfied with the toughness of the Chinese leadership and the weakness of the Japanese government last time, and since then, many people have been plotting to bring down the weak current government.
After a long period of preparation, they finally launched. The last compromise of the Japanese government had already broken the hearts of the officers and men of the army, and they were already ready to move, but they had been suppressed by the highly prestigious commander-in-chief of the army, Yama Prefecture Youpeng, and they did not break out.
But just last month, Youpeng in Shanxian County died of a sudden cerebral hemorrhage. The sudden death of Yama Prefecture Aritomo caught the top government officials by surprise, and before they could communicate with the army officials, the 4th Division on Kyushu Island rebelled first.
The 3rd Division was almost completely wiped out in the territory of the Han Ping Kingdom, and after the reconstruction, they hated the Chinese Territory, and the compromise of the Japanese government last time had already made them angry, and after the death of Youpeng in Shanxian County, which had been suppressing them this time, the 3rd Division, which had lost resistance, finally broke out first.
The Japanese people, who had been suppressed for too long, not only did not have any condemnation after the rebellion of the Third Division, but they supported the Third Division one-sidedly. Subsequently, the 8th and 11th Reserve Divisions of Kyushu Island also rebelled in support of the 3rd Division, and they soon took control of the entire island of Kyushu.
Upon receiving the news that Kyushu Island was out of control, King Taisho, who was shocked, immediately ordered the mobilization of troops to suppress it, and soon the 1st Division, the 2nd Division, and eight other reserve divisions were assembled on the main island and the eastern part of Shikoku Island.
However, to the surprise of the Japanese government, instead of attacking the rebel forces on Kyushu Island, these mobilized troops launched a rebellion and welcomed the landing of the 3rd Division on the island, and the rebel army quickly marched towards the eastern capital.
The army loyal to the government resisted, but after all, most of the army joined the rebellion, and the government army, which was too small in number, resisted and retreated to the east. The rebels were too powerful, and they could only retreat.
Since the Restoration, the people of the whole country have tightened their belts under the inspiration of the king and the government and invested all their funds in the construction of the country.
However, the national strength had just become stronger, but the Japanese were defeated by the Chinese in the first foreign war, so that the Japanese not only did not receive war dividends, but made their own economy worse because of large-scale reparations.
The second battle against the Chinese Territory was originally just under the banner of piracy in order to export gas to the country and gain some benefits by the way, but who knew that the brainless Heyuan Yaoyi took the liberty of waving the Japanese naval flag, which not only wiped out the only remaining Japanese navy, but also made the domestic economy that had just improved again worse.
That assassination of the other party's Xiaoyu, the compromise of the Japanese government finally became the fuse that ignited the anger of the people, and this time through the rebellion of the army, all the contradictions broke out at once.
Although the Guards Division, loyal to the government, was the most well-equipped, it could not stop the sea of people attacking like a tide, and after resisting for half a month, the eastern capital was breached, and all the remaining remnants of the Guards Division retreated into the palace, and the entire palace was surrounded by rebel regiments, and it was only because of the king's position in the eyes of the people that the attack was delayed.
At this time, Prime Minister Ito sat on his knees opposite King Taisho, flanked by a number of high-ranking government officials. Ito sighed and said, "Your Highness, we have now reached the most critical moment, and we are no longer able to quell the rebellion. ”
King Taisho looked panicked and said, "What should I do?" What should we do? ”
Looking at the silent officials on both sides, Ito sighed and said, "Your Highness has a high prestige in the hearts of the people, and I believe that the rebels will not dare to harm them. Katsura Taro on the side said, "If we ask for help from the Saar Empire or the Boston Empire?" ”
