End of 1849

When the first heavy snow fell in Seattle, Richard returned with a cavalry hunting party in the snow, and a dozen wagons behind him were loaded with huge North American brown bears and fierce jaguars, leaving two deep rutted marks on the horses, which were obviously rich.

In addition to handling state affairs, he was busy and took a break.

Back in the Seattle Palace, a group of guards began to busily pack up, put the hunting beasts in iron cages, and prepare to transport them back to the Maple Leaf Palace in Chang'an, where North American brown bears can also hibernate peacefully.

Richard took off his cloak and handed it to the royal attendants, and then strode into the warm room, where the fireplace was blazing and two ancient incense burners, exuding the unique and refreshing smell of ambergris.

"Brother Qing'an, what's going on these days?"

Gu Yan, the secretary general of the royal family, held a few documents in his hand, and stood by his side with a respectful expression.

Richard took the tea from the hands of the maid of the royal court, motioned for Gu Yan to sit down with his hand, and then sat down on the soft sofa and took a sip of hot tea.

"Thank you Your Majesty for giving me the seat, I dare not be ashamed." Gu Yan clasped his hands into fists and saluted, then carefully sat down with half of his buttocks, straightened his upper body, picked up a few documents in his hand and began to report in turn, and said;

"There are 4 important documents here, involving important military and political affairs, which need to be personally seen and shown by His Majesty, so that the military and political departments can implement them according to the regulations.

This first document is a letter of inquiry from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the British Empire, asking whether our unauthorized inclusion of Hawaii has taken into account the interests of expatriates from Britain, France and other countries. Is it respecting the sovereignty of the local indigenous kingdoms, has it considered the senses of the surrounding countries, and is it too careless?

There is also a similar issue in Panama, which has also been brought up to talk about things, which is nothing more than an expression of dissatisfaction.

How to reply is still up to Your Majesty. ”

"My damn grandma, this is the disgusting death of the British innocent, the British unscrupulously enclosed land all over the world, conquered and colonized other countries, and wiped out countless ancient civilizations in the world. Another side of the posture, put on a posture of a defender of the world order to preach, to be a bitch and to set up a memorial arch, I ...... Bah......" Richard was suddenly angry and couldn't help but burst into foul language.

Gu Yan saw that His Majesty the King was thundered and angry, and he didn't dare to say much for a while, and only after waiting for a while did he ask cautiously; "Your Majesty, how should the Secretariat of the Royal Court reply?"

"Get some fake and empty clichés to reply, these British old people are really dull, how long have we eaten the two pieces of territory, can we still spit it out? Inform the Assembly to act quickly, and pass a resolution as soon as possible to include Hawaii and Panama as kingdoms, the 15th and 16th provinces, so as not to have too many nights. ”

"Wechen understands that he will start doing it as soon as possible." Gu Yan replied cautiously, then flipped to the next document, and after reading a few lines, he spoke;

This second document was a happy event, since the signing of the Treaty of Wangxia between the United States and Qing in 1843, the United States had great trade and immigration facilities in the Manchu Qing Dynasty. This year, the Tang Kingdom sent a mission to negotiate with the Manchu Qing Dynasty, and recently signed the "Jiaozhou Treaty" in Weihaiwei, which obtained similar trade and immigration facilities to the United States, which provided us with a favorable guarantee for further immigration from the Chinese mainland. ”

"It's a good thing, it won't affect the mood if you say it earlier, let's talk about the next one." Richard's complexion softened slightly.

The Manchu Dynasty did not scrape the fat oil of the Tang Kingdom, and other countries would also scrape it, especially on immigration and trade issues, which was very important to the development of the Tang Kingdom.

Therefore, the formal signing of the "Jiaozhou Treaty" ensured that the local governments of the Manchu Dynasty would not deliberately embarrass themselves on the above issues, and also ensured the supra-national interests of the expatriates of the Tang Kingdom, which was of great benefit to the two countries in the field of trade.

The Tang Kingdom needed the population of the Manchu Dynasty, tea, porcelain, silk and various handicrafts, and the Manchu Dynasty needed the iron products, silver and copper coins, cheap woven fabrics, foreign guns and cannons in stock, salted fish, bacon and sausages and other materials, and the trade between the two sides was extremely complementary.

Now there has been no rain in Jiaodong for more than a month, seeing that the spring drought is serious, and it may be another disaster year with a large grain harvest, the demand for food is extremely strong.

After the autumn harvest of the Tang Kingdom, the grain and materials in the warehouse were piled up full of grains, and a big market was needed to digest it.

Only from an economic point of view

Transporting food, a cheap commodity for the masses, on the North Pacific route seems to be a bit more than worth the cost, and even the freight is not enough.

But look at it from another angle

How many refugees will be exchanged for a cargo ship loaded with 5,000 tons of grain arriving at Weihaiwei port?

How many people will this save?

Half a bag of millet, two buns can be exchanged for a 10-year-old girl, how many people will be given hope for a new life?

Isn't it cost-effective to exchange the original backlog of grain for the immigrant population that the Tang Kingdom desperately needs, to win the love and loyalty of the people, and to save countless Chinese compatriots while digesting the inventory?

The formal treaty was the official document that maintained trade and immigration relations between the two countries, and with it, the Manchu government had to cooperate and cooperate, opening the door to convenience.

Richard's expression improved greatly, and the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Count Juan Carlos, has been running around for several years, personally signing the "Treaty of Holding Taihua", winning an additional province of Nebraska for the Tang Kingdom, and visiting Hawaii and Panama on behalf of the royal family, which greatly alleviates the anxiety and apprehension of the newly conquered land, which can be described as a great achievement.

This time, he traveled thousands of miles to Shenzhou and signed the "Jiaozhou Treaty" as he wished, as long as the parliament passed it, His Majesty the King could implement it with the seal, which was really hard.

Put the right person in the right position, and he will make a great achievement that will make you shine and reap great rewards.

For example, the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Count Juan Carlos, as well as the military Count Kahn and Count Rabiot, and most impressively, the former commander of the Northern Cavalry Corps (formerly the commander of the Tennessee Cavalry) Count Harry Frezzie.

When the United States was pressed by the 3rd Western Expedition, Count Harry Frazy led the cavalry of the Northern Army to burn and loot when he went deep into the Great Lakes region, and the means were very bloody, which was even more Chinese than the Chinese, and played a very important role in containing the war situation.

Even if a Chinese general is sent as the commander, no one dares to say that he has done it more thoroughly, with more cruel and bloody methods than Count Harry Frege, and of course, more hated by the old Americans.

In the depiction of American public opinion;

Richard, the demon king of the Tang Kingdom, has four major demon generals under his command, each of which is a murderous character who can stop children from crying at night, namely Earl Dai Changfu, Count Harry Friech, Count Karn and Count George Rabiot.

Among the four major generals, white people account for three, which shows how much the American old people hate them?

"The third document is also a happy event, the Royal Government at the beginning of the year sent three resource exploration teams, recently have come back good news, respectively in the south-central California Province, the southern part of New Mexico Province has found rich reserves of oil and gas resources, in addition to coal, gold, iron, aluminum, zinc and other mineral deposits, after further determining the reserves, it is necessary to plan for development."

"Good, good, good...... Hurry up and contact the European side as soon as possible, import a full set of refinery equipment and drilling equipment as soon as possible, and all government departments give the green light to complete this matter as the first priority of economic development. ”

Yavin

Richard stood up as he spoke, rubbing his hands excitedly, his eyebrows and eyes filled with irrepressible joy, he had finally found the oil field, and he couldn't make a fortune now.

The output of petroleum smelters in this era is impressive, and the production of dozens of tons of kerosene a month is too much, and the low efficiency of the steam reactor is outrageous.

But this is not a problem, every petrochemical technology difficulty is broken, and the productivity growth is calculated by 10 times and 100 times, which means that the huge wealth is rolling in.

In order to make a fortune, Richard can hire the world's top physicists and chemists at high salaries, improve and greatly improve the efficiency of petrochemical refining equipment, and earn more money for the kingdom.

If it really doesn't work, you can also exchange the petroleum refining process drawings at a large price from the system store, further aggravating the development of the world's science and technology line.

Of course, that is a last resort, and can only be used as a choice for party B, which will have a serious butterfly effect and make the future world even more unpredictable.

The demand for lighting and heating in today's world is too strong, kerosene is its main demand, and the potential of one European market alone is amazing, with an annual demand of 10,000 tons, not to mention other markets?

At this time, Richard seemed to see the golden template of the big dog in Saudi Arabia beckoning to him, and couldn't help but laugh "hehe".

Looking at His Majesty's overjoyed appearance, Gu Yan was instantly speechless.

As a qualified old bureaucrat, if you can't understand Your Majesty's preferences and your Majesty's high points, it means that you, the secretary general of the royal family, are extremely unqualified, and the holy scroll is worrying!

It seems that after going back, I still have to fight at night to study these mineral resources and oil resources in depth, why would His Majesty be so out of shape?

Your Majesty is not a king who has never seen the world, the River of the Americas produces 3.6 million to 4 million ounces of gold a year, and the Morenzi copper mine produces more than 23,500 tons of copper a year, each of which is a huge fortune.

Even so, Your Majesty has never been so happy that he lost his temper?

If he couldn't figure out this problem, Gu Yan would definitely have insomnia all night.

"I remember you didn't say that there are 4 documents, let's report them together, this shouldn't be another big event, right? Hahahaha...... This trick is well done first and then promoted, hahahaha......"

Richard couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh, expressing the endless joy in his heart, and laughed a little uncontrollably.

This made Gu Yan more and more afraid to report, this fourth thing is not a good thing, suddenly interrupted His Majesty's interest, he didn't feel that he could bear it on his shoulders.

At this moment, he was deeply annoyed by the order in which he reported the documents, and dug himself a big hole that he couldn't climb.

Although His Majesty has a "Qing'an brother", he seems kind and gentle on weekdays, but it is just an illusion of a tiger napping, and he can eat people at any time.

Once the anger is initiated, no one in the Tang Kingdom can withstand it.

The king's anger and blood flowed for thousands of miles, it was really a great fear of the end of the world, and it was no joke.

At this moment, Gu Yan's mouth was full of bitterness, and his expression was speechless.

made Richard laugh wildly for a while, and then looked at him with a strange expression, his smile gradually converged, and the pressure of the mountain swept in, and Gu Yan was almost breathless.

"What's wrong...... What's not to say? ”
