Chapter 55: Rising to the Fore (12)
A few hours after receiving Bottel's call again, in the command room of the Fucheng, several generals in military uniforms hurriedly walked out, as if Le Chen was convening a military meeting, seeing this scene, Bottel's face became more and more gloomy. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
"General Bottel, you brought a suitable offer?" Le Chen looked at him with a smile.
Bottel snorted coldly and stared at Le Chen for a few moments, "Do you really think that those pot-bellied wastes of the Imperial Border Guards will stand out for you? When they hear the cannon go off, they will run faster than rabbits." ”
Le Chen smiled and said nothing.
"What do you want to do? Do you want to be meritorious? Who is recognized? Do you think you can defeat us?" said a hint of sarcasm on Bottel's lips.
Le Chen smiled: "General, I made it very clear to you a long time ago, I came here just to do business, in fact, you can think about it, if Golden Harbor Bay becomes a permanent neutral trade port, you can let the free merchants of the empire do business with you, isn't it a good thing for the Red Shirts and all the free army organizations?
"You've done a good job, okay, keep convincing me. Bottre said so, but the sarcasm in his eyes was not hidden.
Le Chen smiled slightly: "You wait a minute." ”
In an instant, Bottel's face changed suddenly, "Connave, where is he?"
But just now, Conaf transferred tens of millions of Imperial Coins and billions of Blue Star Rupees to him through the account of Yinling Bank, totaling about nearly 100 million Imperial Coins.
Le Chen smiled: "I am a greedy businessman, so I just want to make some money, and I have never offended the free army's tiger power, this matter is of great interest to the free army's departments, especially the red shirts, it must be a win-win situation, if General Bottel is willing to do this, he will inevitably pay tribute to the general every year in the future." "It's another 100 million imperial coins out, Le Chen is really a little painful now, but a lot of things, there are gains and losses, and if you can solve it peacefully with false intimidation and inducement, it is best to solve it peacefully, and your hole cards, of course, are not to take it out if you can expose it less, otherwise, even if you use the secret weapon in the mustard seed world to defeat the rebel departments in front of you, you will still be entangled in the end, and the rebels will inevitably send a stronger fleet to destroy themselves.
Bottel's face was cloudy, and he suddenly hung up the communication.
......
Regardless of whether the fighting is raging or moderate, the regime change in Golden Harbor is still in full swing, and after more than two months of preparation and universal suffrage, Golden Harbor has formed a deliberative committee and declared independent self-government.
The parliament passed the Golden Harbor Dominion Autonomy Act, declaring that from now on, the airspace of Golden Harbor Bay will be a permanent neutral place, and at the same time, the bill grants Lechen the power to permanently govern the affairs of the Dominion, of course, on the other hand, Lechen also has the responsibility to protect the Dominion.
Subsequently, Le Chen appointed Feng Dazu as his first representative in the Dominion of Golden Harbor, as his assistant to the Governor and commander of the Dominion fleet, and appointed Renault as his second representative in the Dominion of Golden Harbor and the first patrol commissioner of the Dominion.
Next, Renault began to form the Dominion's Board of Public Affairs, or the Dominion's self-governing administrative body, and with the approval of the Parliament, he served as the first general director of the Public Board.
For more than half a month, Bottel's fleet did not launch another attack on Golden Harbor Bay, until one day, Bottel called again.
On the light screen, Bottel's face was still cold, he just said coldly: "Our foreign commissioner wants to talk to you directly!"
Then the light screen switched, and an image of a smiling white fat old man appeared on the screen.
The picture was a little shaky, and it was obvious that the old man was extremely far away, and through the internal relay communication channel of the battleship Bottel, he could barely achieve a communication delay of more than ten minutes.
Because of the delay for too long, the white fat old man did not say too much greetings, and said with a smile: "Mr. Young Marshal, regarding the cooperation between you and me in the operation of Jingangwan, we think that this matter is feasible, and all the management power of Jingangwan is equally distributed by you and me, and the specific plan is here." ”
On the light screen, dense terms were immediately displayed.
Le Chen had already frowned, didn't look at these terms at all, and said coldly: "Get out!" and directly cut off the communication.
More than 20 minutes later, Bolt's call came again, Le Chen answered, and on the screen, the white fat old man's face turned the color of pig liver, and he looked like thunder: "Are you crazy? Do you know what diplomacy is? You, you barbarian who has no grace or any politeness!"
Le Chen rolled his eyelids, "You redshirts had better figure out how good it is for you redshirts to run a trading port in Golden Harbor where imperial merchants can trade freely, I didn't charge you some extra hard money, what power do you talk to me about?" It takes more than twenty minutes to exchange opinions, your time is not precious, don't waste me, I'll take a step back, Jingang Bay Port will pay 50% of the taxes to the Red Shirts every year after last year's income surplus, I have already calculated, more than two million imperial coins, even if it is two million and a half million, as for how to distribute these taxes among your flags, don't do my business!" After a pause, Le Chen's face became serious: " This is my bottom line, if you don't agree, you don't have to send any more messages, I don't have time for you to talk here!"
In Connoff's hands, the port of Golden Harbor, which is surrounded by the Red Shirts, is really nothing special, coupled with his poor management and deception, in terms of data, the total annual fiscal and tax revenue of Golden Harbor Bay is more than 4 million imperial currency surplus.
Le Chen drank coffee boredly, and waited for about twenty minutes, when the image of the white fat old man appeared on the light screen.
"Now we have a new motion, the Golden Harbor Lease with you for 100 years, there are two plans for the rent, the first plan, you and our floating share, the Golden Harbor Port will pay 50 percent of the annual fiscal surplus, and the second plan, the fixed amount of rent, you need to pay a fixed amount every year, based on the last year's Golden Harbor financial surplus of 4.8 million yuan, 80 percent, and the fixed amount is 3.6 million imperial currency. ”
"Fuck off!" Le Chen cut off the communication again.
In fact, Le Chen naturally hopes that the quota will be used to send the red shirts, and the difference between 3.6 million per year and 2.5 million per year is only 1 million, and Le Chen doesn't look at it, what he shows is just a gesture.
As for whether it is leased or not, it doesn't matter, a hundred years later, if you are still worried about the ownership of this small golden harbor, then you are too angry.
More than half an hour later, the white fat old man called again and appeared on the screen, his face turned blue with anger, naturally he felt that negotiating with this vulgar warlord leader was really a kind of torture, and said with a snort: "In this way, we will change the second plan, the Golden Harbor will be rented to you for a hundred years, and the rent will be paid 2.5 million imperial coins per year." ”
Le Chen rolled his eyes, thought about it for a long time, and finally nodded.
Of course, if the white fat old man wants to breathe a sigh of relief, it will be ten minutes before the image of Le Chen nodding will appear on his communication channel. (To be continued.) )
