Plitt was very resistant to negotiating with Daming again, mainly because every time he negotiated with Daming before, in the end, the Dutch East India Company often did not take any advantage, and of course it was true that it did not suffer a loss.

But now, these guys are clearly trying to make themselves the villain.

"Your Excellency Marquis, I have to remind you that if you don't want to, I will report to the company word for word on the content of our meeting today and your words and deeds..."

Plitt's gaze.

Tightly locked to the man who spoke.

After a long time, Pulit shrugged his shoulders, extinguished the cigarette in his hand in the ashtray beside him, and then said slowly:

"Then since you've all said so, then I'll have to go one trip."

Pulitt after exiting the gate.

His expression was obviously a little unslack, and he almost felt that he was facing all kinds of strange thoughts in the face of those guys who only knew how to sit in the company all day long, wantonly delusional, and only tried their best to make money on weekdays.

What's even more stupid is that a lot of people within the company are still supporting their approach.

Has the world really changed?

....

Thereupon.

Just after Zhu Youzhen toured Tianjin Port, the day after returning to the capital.

Plitto Nexus got a train ticket.

Get on the bus from Tianjin Port and get ready to head to the capital.

As soon as I walked to the train platform.

His head instantly grew bigger, and he quickly exclaimed, "Oh my God! Where do you usually get so many people to take the train? ”

Plitt is no stranger to trains.

He was very keen to learn about all the new things that appeared in the Ming Dynasty, and Pulit, who was unwilling to stop adventuring, was frowning and sitting in his own seat.

The coach compartment of the train is already crowded with people at the moment.

Everyone who bought a train ticket at the ticket office sat together with excitement and joy.

There was a lot of excitement in his eyes.

"This is the train that Your Majesty has taken, I didn't expect that we, ordinary people, will be able to take the train that Your Majesty has taken one day."

"That's it! Why doesn't anyone find this good thing! ”

....

After a while...

The train started slowly, and everyone noticed that some of the muddy smells in the carriage were really not good, so they opened the windows one after another.

Pulit felt like he was able to breathe well.

In fact, he could have taken the company's luxury carriage from Tianjin to the capital, but he did not choose this way, but let the guards who followed him get into the carriage.

He secretly got on the train to the capital by himself.

Pulit prefers trains, skillfully took out a pack of delicate cigarettes from his pocket, and a businessman on the side glanced at it and said excitedly: "You red-haired devil, I didn't expect it to look quite rich.... Are you willing to smoke such an expensive cigarette? ”

"You.. One too? ”

"Haha! Then you're welcome! ”

Plitt thinks that this is called pyrotechnics.

Capital.

The news that Plitt wanted to see Bi Ziyan was quickly agreed, and the old Dutch marquis was also a magical existence in Bi Ziyan's eyes.

Good cigarettes, good wine, good food, but not interested in women.

On weekdays, he always looks like a rich man.

But the appearance of the blonde hair and blue eyes made people feel very weird, and when they saw Bi Ziyan, Pulit greeted him as usual.

I talked directly about the meaning of today's arrival.

"On behalf of the Dutch East India Company and myself, I would like to extend my sincere greetings to you, how are you doing..."

Bi Ziyan looked at Pulit with a black line, but still said: "Everything is fine, I just don't know why His Excellency the Marquis is visiting today?" ”

"It's like this... In order to promote fair trade between our Dutch East India Company and the Ming Dynasty, we are ready to start raising the prices of some goods since the recent period, and in order to ensure the quality... Strict inspections will be carried out on goods shipped to Daming. ”

In the final analysis, isn't it necessary to control the quantity of various commodities delivered to Daming, and to raise prices?

Bi Ziyan immediately understood.

But what Pulit didn't expect at all was that instead of feeling annoyed, Bi Ziyan nodded with a smile and said: "Your Excellency Marquis, I have already understood what you said today, and then you can write to our Commerce Bureau, and then Your Majesty may respond to your request, forgive me for not being able to do anything." ”

It's just that, after all, Plit, who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to raise the price, instantly became alert, and he suddenly felt that Daming was now less in need of goods from the Dutch East India Company.

"Master Bi... You have to understand us, we will be the most sincere friends of Daming. ”

"yes.. I never said we weren't friends. ”

After saying that, Bi Ziyan got up and asked to send off the guests.

When leaving, Pulit glanced back deeply, feeling that he seemed to have done a lot of wrong things, and for the purchase of Daming's machinery and equipment and warships.

Pullett knew that this was not something that could be decided by Bi Ziyan.

So he began to submit a request to the Ministry of Rites, hoping to meet Zhu Youzhen in person.

....

The next afternoon, in the palace.

Zhu Youzhen walked in a small courtyard in the palace, a little cool, but Zhu Youzhen felt that the temperature was very comfortable, and looked at Bi Ziyan on the side.

The indifferent Zhu Youzhen said slowly: "I understand, this Dutchman is red-eyed to put it bluntly, and he can't sit still when he sees the development of Daming now!" I had expected such a day. ”

"Your Majesty, but what the minister is puzzled about is that this Pulit doesn't seem to be particularly concerned about this matter, and it seems that he is trying his best to avoid discussing specific issues with the minister, why is this?"

Zhu Youzhen smiled and looked at the flower bed not far away.

Not many flowers are able to bloom in this temperature in autumn.

So the flower bed is a little bare at the moment.

"Because, the Dutch are now beating the drums inside themselves! Now Pulit wants to see me, most of the time it is to find me to purchase armaments, and it is estimated that he will ask me for money. ”

"Asking for money? How is that possible.. Isn't it time for bonds? ”

"You don't understand... Dutch, it's bad! ”

Bi Zizheng nodded solemnly, but still said with some doubts: "Then Your Majesty, the minister put Pulit like this today, will it..."

"Nope! To put it bluntly, Pulit is essentially just a businessman, and of course the businessman is based on the premise of profit, and I will meet him in person in a few days! ”
