After ending the meeting with Xue Fucheng, Xu Jie originally thought that he could relax, but who knew that only 2 days after the end of the meeting with Xue Fucheng, an invitation letter with gold edges was delivered to Xu Jie. So, Xu Jie had to explain the situation to Vittorio and the others again, and then left the hotel with a group of bodyguards who couldn't get rid of him.

"Hello, Dear Mr. Xu, welcome to your arrival." Butler Rhodes said with a red face.

"Hello, may I ask why you were able to get a letter of recommendation from Lord Xue Fucheng?" Looking at the two Englishmen in front of him, a man and a woman, Xu Jie asked suspiciously. If it weren't for Xue Fucheng's letter of recommendation, Xu Jie would never have sat down with 2 Britons in this remote place.

"Welcome to Garyne Rothschild." The girl sitting on the throne said politely.

"Garin? The name doesn't seem to be famous in history. Xu Jie couldn't help frowning.

"It's normal that you don't know me, but I guess you should know Nati Rothschild, right? I'm his niece," the girl smiled.

"Nati Rothschild? That British Jewish secular chief? Xu Jie was shocked. No wonder it is surprising that Nati Rothschild was a fourth-generation member of the British branch, and his father was Onel Rothschild, who was the first Jewish to be elected to the British Parliament. Not only did he enter Parliament, but in 1885 he became a hereditary nobility in England. The Baron's influence in politics was as great as his in business, and he not only had good relations with various political factions, but was also the object of competition between the Liberal Party and the Tories. In British Jewish society, he was president of the British Jewish Federation for 36 years. He is also the vice-president of the Sanguild Federation, the headmaster of the Jewish Free School, and the vice-president of the British Jewish Association. And he did make a great contribution to the improvement of the living conditions of the Jews. After the mass exclusion of Jews from Tsarist Russia in 1881, Jews poured into Britain, and Nati provided temporary lodging and cheap housing for Jews who fled to Britain. But unlike the Zionists, Nati himself did not believe that Jews could regain the territory of Palestine. He did everything he wanted to make life better for the Jews in England and to integrate them into British society faster and better. In a certain way, Nati had some misgivings about the Zionist state, because as a Jew he was also an Englishman, a hereditary aristocrat of England, and the qiē he had gained was based on his allegiance to the British, which was a clear threat to his position in Britain if he publicly expressed strong support for the Zionist movement.

"I want to talk to Mr. Xu about a business." Just when Xu Jie was searching for information about this Rothschild family lady in his mind, Galene said here.

"I want to invest in building a factory in Qingguo." Garin said softly.

"And Lord Xue Fucheng is not very satisfied with the technology of the British Empire." Seeing that Xu Jie didn't react, Garin frowned and continued with a little dissatisfaction.

"And you mean, you provide the money and we provide the technology, right?" Xu Jie finally figured out Garin's purpose, and it turned out that he wanted to cooperate.

"Suffice it to say, I can fund the establishment of a number of modern factories in your country's Zhili Province, and a considerable part of them will be the military industry, and according to the current situation, Lord Xue is very fond of the **-class dome cruiser designed by you, and he is also very interested in your small arms. So....... Garin said.

"The transfer of technology and the purchase of warships should be the business of the ** small arms design bureau and Italian shipyards, and may not require your involvement." Xu Jie suddenly felt a little uneasy, because in his setting, at least the business of the **-class dome cruiser was directly carried out by the Italian side and Beiyang, rather than changing hands once in the middle.

"It is true that the Italians can directly provide Beiyang with a range of equipment, from small rifles to large warships, but Beiyang Master Li still hopes to establish his own military industrial system, which requires a lot of money. We can provide enough silver for Beiyang to buy equipment and even warships. If it weren't for us. I'm afraid that Beiyang doesn't have enough money to buy Italian arms, right? Garin said with a smile.

"This is the truth, since the Pingyuan good cruiser was put into service, Beiyang has invested most of the funds into the construction of a dock that can accommodate Dingzhen, and the damn Qing Dynasty has no new shipbuilding money, so Beiyang does not have the cash to buy warships, and if Beiyang wants to buy **-class dome cruisers in a short period of time. Finding someone to borrow money became the only way. Xu Jie's extensive knowledge of history helped him find the crux of the problem. …,

"And we hope to cooperate with you to facilitate this arms trade with Beiyang." Seeing that Xu Jie didn't react, Garin was quite angry.

"Since it is a profitable business, the ** Design Bureau will naturally not refuse, but Miss Gaylene can go to negotiate with the ** Design Bureau and the Italian Admiralty in this matter, wouldn't that be more direct and convenient? I think with the background of the Rothschild family, it is not impossible to even license the production of light weapons. Xu Jie can now conclude that this Miss Gaylin is looking for him not just for business.

"We hope that Mr. Xu can personally go to Qingguo to operate this matter on behalf of the Italian government, and if he can, I hope that Mr. Xu can help us to invest in some industries in Beiyang, such as Kailuan Coal Mine, Tianjin Manufacturing Bureau, etc." Gaylin realized that something had to be clarified.

"It seems that it's not just the technical aspect, I guess it's because of my Chinese identity? Or did you fancy Xue Fucheng's importance to me? Xu Jie laughed.

"In short, if my husband can help me with anything other than the arms business, I can give you 30% of my shares." Galine believed that in the face of such temptation, no businessman with a brain would give up.

"It's a lucrative business. But I wonder why the Rothschilds, who are so much in business, are so generous. I'm afraid there is some shady work behind it, right? Xu Jie said gloomily.

"You don't have to worry about this, you just need to do what you want to do and take your share." Garin finally couldn't help it, the person in front of him was extremely difficult, and he was not a master who could be sent away by money.

"I can help you with this business, and I can also help you get some shares of the property under Beiyang's name, but I want to know what you have to do. Don't sue me sù you just make money, if it's for money, there is a better business than investing in Beiyang. Xu Jie still said tepidly. According to the news revealed by Lord Xue, do you want to establish a bank in Beiyang? I'm afraid you want to put the Rothschilds in Europe in the Qing Kingdom, right? After speaking, Xu Jie glanced at Galene, who was a little pale with an angry face, and Rhodes, who was a little overwhelmed on the side.

"Does this have anything to do with you?" Garin said with a somewhat hideous face.

"Of course it matters, that's my motherland, where are my roots, how can I help a foreigner to control him?" Xu Jie's face showed a hint of contempt. "However, as far as I know, the Rothschild family will not use their money to directly interfere in politics, and it is very likely that you will offend several foreign governments. Are you crazy? ”

"Give me a reasonable explanation, I may help you, but never want to use me to control my motherland." Before the other party could react. Xu Jie decided to have a showdown.

Xu Jie's toughness and sharp instincts far exceeded Garin and Rhodes's expectations. In their opinion, this Mr. Xu is at most a business-minded technician. According to the information they have, the vast majority of Qing people are either greedy for money or pedantic, and they can completely rely on deception or money to get it. But the person in front of him not only has a very keen intuition, but also a master who does not enter oil and salt. In front of him, Garin felt that all her thoughts had been seen through, and there was a feeling that all kinds of means were useless. After taking a few deep breaths, Gaylin decided to have a showdown with her opponent. Because she knows that it will be useless to entangle any longer, it will only make the other party distrust her even more. Sometimes, honesty is more successful than cunning.
