The fourth update

As a result, as soon as they returned to the concession, they were besieged again. They all thought that it might be better to stay in the prefect's mansion.

At this time, there was also a heated discussion in the three countries, the Americans were the most slippery, they had few deaths, and they were not rich businessmen, but cowboys who came to China to pan for gold. Of course, the most important thing is that they are too far away, there are a lot of merchant ships, but there are really too few warships, they really start a war for these two, they are not cost-effective.

The main reason was that the business was delayed, and the telegram sent back saying that the ship could not move, and they immediately sent a telegram to the ambassador, agreeing to the proposal of the Qing court, but the issue of compensation had to be discussed again.

Qingyu only replied with a 'NO'! The American ambassador understands perfectly well that they will not promise anything. How can we explain to other countries if we pay too much for you? The goods in the merchant ships are going to rot, and if they don't compromise, they will have to pay the rich merchants to death if they don't compromise. They kept protesting to the country. So that the country has to compromise.

In the end, the agreement was made in accordance with international law, the contract was signed, and a communiqué was issued. The U.S. garrisons in the five places returned to normal, and although those businessmen also suffered some losses, they would think that they would be better than others. The main thing is that those British and French businessmen are still closed, and many businesses can be rushed.

The British also struggled for a while, but the British Parliament did not talk about the dead, but about the Qing Dynasty's arms purchase this year. The date is approaching, let them ask Qingyu's attitude. The wife of the British ambassador hurriedly entered the palace, and 500,000 taels of silver. Moreover, Qingyu's order is not only for military purchases, but also for the Qing people to buy machinery from the British is also a big deal.

Since the second year of Xianfeng, Qingyu has asked local governments to count the rich people who are interested in running industries, introduce the characteristics and models of machinery, let them register, and the government will order them from the governments of other countries, so that it is cheaper.

At the beginning, merchants from all over the world still thought that this was apportionment. A little hesitant, holding those mechanical leaflets, I don't know what to do. Of course, there are those who want to try, but they don't understand anything, thinking that the yamen wants to make some money. I think it's so simple, let them make money.

As a result, I bought it back, went to other places to inquire, and went to the foreign bank to order the price. It's really a lot cheaper. And the point is that the yamen really confiscated the money.

When you count it again in the second year, it's cheaper than the first year because there are so many people! Fees are not allowed in various places, which is also a kind of support for industry and commerce. But more importantly, Qingyu knows very well that as long as she keeps buying, buying, buying, and buying, those parliamentarians who represent the interests of all businesses can kneel down for themselves.

In fact, it is true that last year they started buying newer machines from Germany. Qingyu is a knowledgeable person, and she collects all kinds of latest business, scientific, and political materials from the embassies they send abroad.

This also made the British government a little worried, and really turned to German manufacturers, so what about the benefits that are not lower than arms purchases? And this order is increasing every day, and these ambassadors' wives have become more and more stammered with Qingyu over the years, for fear that one of them will accidentally let Qingyu transfer the order to Germany. And Germany has already set up an embassy in Beijing, and the wife of the family is not a fuel-efficient lamp. It's not easy to be an ambassador's wife, the competition is too fierce.

The British ambassador's wife said a car of words, and Qingyu looked at the ambassador's wife and smiled, without saying anything.

People also understand that if the matter is not solved, there will be no play in military purchases, and those orders will be even more useless. Truthfully reported, the British fleet is gone, saying that this is a great shame, they have not suffered such anger in Asia, they should be like ......

Before he could finish speaking, he was thrown a shoe and hit on the head by a local councilor. You hit, what about the diaspora? What if there are so many businesses? These orders are related to the survival and development of many enterprises......

Then the horn calculated the account for a long time, and sprayed the vice admiral to death. So what else is there to say, the order is bigger than the sky. On the third day after the United States, Britain signed a memorandum of mutual understanding with Qing and did a better job than the Americans!

Now only France remains, and the main thing is that the French are a bit liberal, and the execution of this country is actually still poor. I saw that Britain and the United States had signed, but sixteen of them died! They don't have that many orders, and the arms purchases of 500,000 are gradually decreasing, and their things are somewhat liberal, far less precise than in Germany.

Qingyu invited German experts to see the French warships, asked them to help make matching, and by the way, she had a good relationship with the Germans and began to purchase all kinds of equipment from them on a large scale. They are much more cooperative than the French.

The main reason is that Germany is also one of the eight-nation alliances, and Qingyu is establishing cooperative relations with these distant countries one by one, and the golden bullet policy is actually useful at any time.

So France is now a little tangled, noisy, and their family is unable to support themselves; Don't make trouble, you are unwilling. And Qingyu is not in a hurry, they will do it themselves. As long as the three of them are not connected, they are not afraid of a fight at all.

The French were actually not stupid, Britain and the United States did not count on it, they ran to find the Russians, and the French knew very well that the Qing government had no diplomatic ties with Tsarist Russia. And Tsarist Russia is closer, driving warships much closer than they are from the mainland. So, I went to ask them, 'Let's go into Beijing together, and we will divide seven and I three.' We can't swallow this breath. ’

Russia actually wants to agree, they have been staring at the large area of land in the northeast near Russia for a day or two, and they have been trying to find an excuse to force the Qing people to agree to cede. Over the years, they have moved forward little by little along the border.

The Qing government took measures of tolerance and prevention of crimes, but they also saw their efforts in the northeast. Over the years, they could no longer make an inch. It seems that the pass is no longer theirs, and a new person is sent to take over, but the result is either dead or wounded, and now no one can take over the place. They also can't know the real situation in the Northeast, so they don't have confidence in fighting at this time.

Moreover, in recent years, the Qing people have been actively communicating with other countries. Now the most powerful is the British, everyone has retreated, and they are advancing with the useless France, okay?

At this time, Lao Qi's Beiyang Naval Division opened fire on the Korean pirates. Just off the coast of Russia, the sailors of the people watched the Beiyang sailors surround and beat the pirates who were rampant in this area. Look at the brand new warship, and then the cannonballs blast at the pirate ship like no money.

The Russians are not stupid, the Beiyang Navy Division does not fight early or late, and if they fight at this juncture, they will be beaten to show them. That warship is a new type, although it is not as good as those of the latest warships in the world now, but with these, it is not easy for them to cross over.

Really fight to the death for the French? Besides, what are they if they lose? And in the absence of an excuse, he can at best appear as a mediator, and not with a warship, to fight a war of aggression without an excuse. The Russian looked at the fat and struggled for a long time, but he still painfully refused.
