Chapter 633 Earn or Lose?

The arms trade has always been one of the most lucrative transactions, and it is much faster to make money than selling silk, porcelain, and tea. It is no wonder that in the history of another time and space, the five hooligans shouted the slogan of peace while competing to sell arms all over the world. Among them is a harmless-looking rabbit who talks about "peaceful rise" all day long.

Speaking of this rabbit, I think of an interesting story, during the war between the two Ys, the warring parties almost beat a little bit of their family, and found that they still couldn't take each other how to do it, and began to save costs, catching up with this sanction and that sanction, when the cheap guy seemed to have no place to find it. "Peaceful rise" is taken care of, and the weapons made by this family, although the quality and accuracy are almost meaningful, but they can't stand up to cheapness, and they are sturdy and durable.

As a result, both countries sent representatives of him to visit the "Peaceful Rise", and both sides received them at the same time, and the trade on both sides was not delayed. Well, that's pretty much it, it's hot over there, and it's going to continue to buy equipment from two over there. There's no way, people are poor and short-minded, they were really poor at the time, and these two Y are local tyrants who give dollars.

Another time, a bigger tyrant came, the kind of tyrant who was covered in the president of the United States. When I got here, the rabbit with a clear conscience opened an inflated price, and I already felt very embarrassed. As a result, the local tyrant said, no problem, it's really cheap. As soon as the rabbit heard this, he regretted it, the battle trench in this Nima tyrant, the knife has to be sharpened faster. Hurry up and say. "Our quote is US dollars, I didn't make it clear just now." As a result, the local tyrant came and moved the rabbit badly: "Is there still an arms deal in this world that does not use dollars?" ”

Well, in the face of the dollar, the conscience really does not have much resistance, and the big killer with a range of thousands of kilometers knows it? The local tyrants are rich. Buy, buy, buy! The rabbit is short of money, so it is natural to sell and sell, and it has given a relatively good after-sales service plan. It is said that the kind of statement that has no real evidence is that it is said that the warhead on the big killer was removed because the local tyrant was too rich.

Japan is not a local tyrant, but it can't stand the fact that it is a life-and-death situation, and both sides are selling iron in the fryer, and they plan to settle accounts well.

Chen Xie had no intention of "interfering" in Japan's internal affairs. But he doesn't have a grudge against silver, does he? As long as there is money to earn, it is easy to discuss. In the front, he had a good conversation with the shogun, and then he started to do business with the opposition. What's wrong with receiving your gifts? That's what you willingly sent, and I didn't force you to send it.

As for whether it will bring deep suffering to the Japanese people, Chen Xie is even less concerned about this matter. I haven't seen our great powers in history, while selling arms to "my Qing Dynasty" and helping to train the army, and at the same time not forgetting to deliver arms to "Long Hair". It's all business anyway. Why bother with any position? An outsider, what the hell are you doing?

Make an appointment. The three countries sat together to talk, and the formal contract was signed, and the location was naturally chosen in Huating. In the midst of the slogan of peace and the atmosphere of friendship between the three countries for generations, a fleet with the Ming Navy as the main force and the Korean and Japanese forces responsible for fighting soy sauce was formed. At the same time, a joint development team was also announced. Chen Xie was still very concerned about this matter and came to the scene of the inaugural meeting. The pioneers from Japan, North Korea, and China, the first batch of 5,000 people, immediately boarded the ship and went to Dayuan after the inaugural meeting was announced. Receive a period of adaptation training, and when the monsoon comes, you will go to distant lands to explore. 、

Both countries sent dignitaries, and after each took the stage to speak, the pioneer team finally set off. This pioneer team, the dress is the same, and there is not much difference from the appearance. They all wore a sunhat, a grass-green military uniform, and a large backpack per person. The equipment is all rifled guns, one long and one short, and the shoes are also special leather sandals (temporarily in the bag).

They all look mighty and majestic, and I don't know if they can fight on the battlefield. The members of this pioneer team were 2,000 from Japan, and the number was about the same in Korea, and the rest were drawn from the army of the Ming Dynasty. So many people brought up the guys under the banner of pioneering, well, how to bring knives and guns, pioneers should bring hoes and sickles. The Japanese samurai said that the sickle did not have it, but the knife did not forget the jì belt.

Navigation and transportation at sea are troublesome things, especially with this kind of large-scale armed transportation. There are very few countries that are not afraid of the trouble to do such a thing, and have the capacity. If Chen Xie hadn't been hanged, immigration alone would have killed people. Fortunately, the problem of transportation costs has been solved in advance, and this problem is not too big a problem. The non-governmental maritime transport industry is thriving, and there are no less than five or six thousand ships floating on the sea in the coastal provinces, and although there are only more than 1,000 large ships suitable for the open sea, there is already enough capacity to find ships to transport these pioneering troops.

Half a year later, in the season of the autumn wind, a large fleet appeared in the Bay of Bengal. This fleet, or fleet, consisted of seventy ships, including twenty third-class battleships, ten fourth-class battleships, and ten clippers, and the rest were armed merchant ships. After arriving at Temasek, we rested for 10 days before boarding the ship and crossing the strait to the Bay of Bengal.

Because the movement is too big, the colonists of various countries are alarmed, what does Daming want to do? Along the way, ships from various countries continued to arrive to inquire, and the news they got was that they were escorting the pioneers of the three countries to India to pioneer. Well, the peoples of East Asia all like to open up wasteland and farm, everyone knows it. The ships of various countries had to follow along and "protect" the safe navigation of this fleet. If you don't protect it, you can't do it, who knows what these people will do when they go to India? There were ten ships to protect the ships, from one or two at the beginning, to the warships of the British, Dutch, Portuguese, and Western countries. The fleet was safely delivered to the port of Bombay, which is now the territory of the Portuguese, and in a few years it was given to the British as a dowry.

The arrival of the Ming fleet frightened the Portuguese a lot, before the Ming merchant ships came, they were all here to do business, this time they came with warships. In India during this period, it was mainly the Dutch and the Portuguese who were butt welding. As a result, the Dutch prevailed, and the Portuguese had to hold on to the small islands of Mumbai.

When the Ming fleet arrived, the Portuguese from the Bombay side sent ships out to stop it. Why don't you ask what you're doing? The answer was clear, sent the messenger Martinez. On the flagship, I saw Chen Xie, the big devil who was feared by Europeans. Why the Great Devil? It's very simple, everyone is a colonizer, and they have done a lot of things that have lost their conscience, but no one is like Chen Xie, a tribe, a tribe is fenced, and all the men, old and young, are killed. This is going to be modern, and it is definitely anti-human enough.

Chen Xie stood under the sun umbrella on the deck. The attitude towards the envoys was also good, but the cannons of the fleet were also aimed at Mumbai.

"Your Excellency, I don't know why you personally led the fleet here?" Martinez was respectful and bowed before speaking. This man can't be provoked, and the entire seafaring nations of Europe know it. Chen Xie held the binoculars, carefully looked at the direction of Mumbai Port and said: "I have taken a fancy to these islands, put a price, I will buy it." ”

That's not going to be reasonable. Anyway, the Portuguese were cleaned up by the Dutch, and now their strength is not good. Don't bully him, bully whom? "Your Excellency, according to the Four-Power Alliance Treaty, we are allies, and you can't treat allies like this."

Chen Xie sneered: "The scope of application of the Four-Power Alliance is Southeast Asia, not India. Besides. I didn't say I was going to fight, I came to do business. I don't think you can defend these islands. I am a kind-hearted, peace-loving person, and I like to use business to settle disputes. You go back. Sue your governor, I bid a hundred thousand pieces of silver. ”

The peace-loving Lord Chen said that he would buy other people's land with 100,000 silver coins, and then this place would be his. The problem is that there is no question of whether this business should be done or not. Martinez trembled with anger, but he didn't dare to have a seizure, so he hurried back to report the news. Before dark, he came back and said that the deal could be cooperated, but it needed to be negotiated, and the Portuguese were willing to run the place together with the Ming.

Chen Xie, who "loves peace", said that negotiations can be held, and we used to have a good cooperative relationship. As long as you can sit down and talk, you can talk about it any way. As a result, a negotiation began, and it was not a family negotiation, Chen Xie specially invited representatives of Britain, the Netherlands, and Spain to attend, and this attitude was really "friendly".

At the negotiation table, Chen Xie's request was very simple, Daming funded the purchase of this place, and there was no trouble. Governor Rivaldo, the representative of Portugal, immediately stated that this was impossible, but that a compromise could be taken. Daming pays a fee every year, and both parties are free to use the place. It is also hoped that a peace treaty will be signed, and in the future, if Mumbai is attacked by ships of unknown nationality, the two countries will have an obligation to defend themselves together.

The consciousness of Rivaldo's words is now called "shelving disputes and joint development", which roughly means that the nature of the problem is different. Chen Xie still felt troublesome and insisted on buying, and you and I went back and forth for three days on both sides, and finally reached an agreement. Sell for half! Half of the joint operation. What does that mean? It's like a certain operational staff officer of the US imperialists, who draws a line with a ruler on the Korean Peninsula, well, the 38th parallel of north latitude, and everyone will demarcate it according to this.

It may seem very irresponsible to the people of India, but did the Nima colonialists need to be accountable to the people of India?

In the future, this Mumbai will be divided into three parts, the middle section, shared on both sides, just like a public concession, where everyone can have a happy time. Across the fig leaf of the public area, on one side are the original landlords Portuguese, and on the other side are the later robbers of the Ming people. That's probably it, the Ming don't need to pay, they just need to extend the trade license of the Portuguese. Well, auto-extended. It seems that the Portuguese are at a loss, but just look at the powers present and you can see that the Portuguese have made a lot of money.
