1890 King of Southeast Asia

"Mr. Jordan, I must support you and the British Empire, but this is a difficult thing to do. The court is more supportive of this. Prince Chun bit his lip and clenched his fists when he said this.

It was not because of anger, but because of nervousness, because he had to reject the British, a country he had always thought could not be rejected.

It was very strange that the British opened the door to the Qing Dynasty, which could be regarded as the beginning of the decline of the Qing Empire. And such wars have happened twice, each of which has been experienced failure, and the second time, their palace was burned down.

The failure of the two wars seemed to have pulled out the backbone of this ruling class, and it would only vent the emotions of failure on the people.

"It doesn't matter, Prince, I know this is a bit difficult. After all, your country has always wanted to have some large warships, which is understandable. Everyone likes them. What I mean is that your country should have more choices, such as Britain, which has a long history of shipbuilding and the most powerful navy. "Juddin said confidently.

Juddin's mission is to hinder the Qing Empire from getting closer to South China.

In fact, Juddin thinks London is a little too worried. He understands the culture of the Chinese. They are not like the Slavs or others. Their confrontation will not stop until the regime of the same nation collapses.

But who can blame this for the proposal made by the Minister of Commerce who has just taken office in the cabinet? This young, rich, and well-connected guy may be able to become the Prime Minister. Everyone will give him face.

"We have agreed to buy it by loan. Their interest rate is very low, and they don't need much collateral. During the entire manufacturing stage, we only need to pay half, and the rest can be paid slowly. It is more suitable for our current difficulties. The ministers have expressed their acceptance. I can't do it alone. There is no way. "Prince Chun looked embarrassed.

He really had no choice. Who didn't know that the old witch had personally issued an order to reach an agreement? He just talked to a few ministers in the Military Affairs Office about the possibility of changing the contract. The next day, he received an order of reprimand. He is still reflecting on his mistakes behind closed doors.

As for the reason? The order said that he was not strict in managing the family and the servants were arrogant and domineering. He didn't understand and didn't dare to ask.

And he also felt that Nanhua's loan was more generous. At present, an order of 60 million taels of silver has been negotiated, with an interest rate of only 8%. The repayment period is ten years, but it can be repaid in advance.

The most important thing is that early repayment No interest is required, and there are no other conditions for the loan. The collateral is only the agricultural and mining taxes of the five northern provinces. The money is still in the hands of the Qing Empire and has not been directly withheld.

Compared with the British loan, 5% interest is the norm, and the repayment is also interest first and principal later. What's more outrageous is that the customs is used as collateral, so the customs is managed by the British. Every year, the customs revenue is used to repay the loan first, and if there is any left after the repayment, it will be handed over.

"We have talked about it many times. Japan and the Russian Empire will not watch your country get powerful weapons. If there is a war like last year, can you still stop it?" Zhu Erdian sniffed the cigar and said casually: "Nanhua has reached a consensus with many countries, including us and the British. Because the situation in the Far East has been too chaotic in recent years, we hope to implement an arms embargo."

At this point, Zhu Erdian raised his head, looked at Prince Chun who was shocked, and smiled gently.

"I didn't know that Nanhua had reached an arms delivery contract with you. This is really a beautiful misunderstanding.

Jordan used the art of lying to the extreme. Of course, it was useless to other countries, but it was the best rhetoric to deal with the Qing Empire, a bunch of idiots.

Who did the embargo? It doesn't matter. As long as Prince Chun sent these words, the Qing Empire would naturally be suspicious. At that time, it didn't matter whether the deal was blown or not. Even if the battleship was obtained, what would happen? The Qing Empire couldn't even do the most basic maintenance.

And by that time, the Qing Empire might have already had a conflict with Nanhua. After all, in the Chinese tradition, there can only be one emperor.

On the first day of April, after the grand court meeting, Prince Chun walked into the Military Affairs Office in a daze.

"Prince Chun, what happened? You are so dazed. What does it look like?" The old aristocrat, Prince Qing Yixin, looked at the dissatisfied ministers in the room and scolded Prince Chun.

Yi is the elder of Prince Chun and Guangxu. He is of the same generation as the old witch husband Emperor Xianfeng and is also the oldest minister of the royal family.

"Prince Qing, something is wrong," said Prince Chun, looking disappointed.

These days, he had asked the Japanese and Russian envoys about the embargo, but both of them said something different. However, Prince Chun did not believe them, so he asked the German envoy again.

The Germans answered like this: "There is indeed an embargo, and we have been invited to participate. It is still under consideration. However, it is not difficult for them to do this. After all, if the navy blocks, we have no way to do it. They have done it before.

The Germans clearly said that the British like to rely on their powerful navy to blockade European powers, but when it came to Prince Chun's ears, it became like last year's war, when Nanhua dispatched a fleet to blockade Japan and Russia.

So, Prince Chun, who was sure that Nanhua was about to "rebel against Daqing", thought about how to counter it all night, but he couldn't think of it all night.

Prince Chun told everything he knew, and the reaction to the Military Affairs Office was no less than an earthquake.

In addition to Prince Qing and Prince Chun, there were Shixu and Zhang Nanpi in the military affairs.

Lu Chuanlin went to deal with the handover of Hanyeping and was not in the Military Affairs Office.

"It shouldn't be! When Lord Qing, Lord Grand Master, the old man Duhu Guang, he had done a little business with the South Hua Rie Thieves, that is, when he fought against the Japanese war, he purchased military weapons and practiced self -reliance. Generally speaking, they were separated from the betrayal, but they were in rebellion, but they Still "Zhang Nanpi frowned.

"To say that this Nanhua, at this time, flipping with us, it is not reasonable to receive the first batch of South China. Now it has arrived in Dali, and the funding problem is sorting out. There is no reason!" The world continues! Pulling the beard.

"I want to see, most of them do n’t know about it. This British, I have dealt with them for a lifetime, and my heart is very much. The king of the King should not be coaxed by him.

In any case, Prince Qing was disappointed by Prince Hilly, even if it was really? Everything has not happened yet, and things have not been concluded yet, and everything has a mild room.

Not to mention the matter, I haven't figured it out. There are really any problems. Just find Nanhua to talk about it. See where there is a problem. See if you can discuss it. ,driven to distraction?

Where is this like the beams and pillars of the country?

Although he is not a good thing, whether it is the failure of the reform or the Li, there is his shadow behind it, and it has been promoted to the iron hat king many times from a small auxiliary general.

"The meaning of King Qing was to talk to Nanhua?" Zhang Nanpi asked.

"This foreigner is a heart, and I want me to be weak. At the beginning, when I was still in the Prime Minister's affairs, I cooperated with Laooli King and Li Hefei to do the navy. I don't know if I can win.

The Navy must have it, and must have it. After all, this is the few performances of Prince Qing.

"Let Lord Lu talk about Nanhua's tone, maybe it is also the British trick, this is not a time or twice."

The world continues.

"However, I still have to contact others and cannot hang it on a tree. In case Nanhua really has a wind, there is also a preparation." Prince Qing is really a good person, and bad things are done.

"Who is right? Britain is too late to build a boat, and so is Germany. The two of them seem to be on." Zhang Nanpi looked at Prince Qing and said calmly.

"Those who are capable, there is a French country, and the second stream is the United States and the United States, and the others are not in the flow." The world said slightly.

As for Tsarist Russia, did not watch Tsarist ’s own fleet a few years ago?

"It's still France. If you can call the British for so many years, you must have some foundation, just France! I will talk about it in person!" Prince Prince Stand up.

"Slowly!" Wang Qin sighed.

"Lord Master, what are you going to talk about? Contract?"

Prince Prince was shocked and sat down.

"Go to Lu Chuanlin, let him leave a few boats, make it in France, but the French quoted higher and the conditions are more harsh. The more useful coming.

Even the new military planes and iron hat kings did not know what he knew, and he sat down.

Prince Qing watched Prince Gel Prince who hurried out all the way, shook his head, turned around and sat down and would be a Maitreya Buddha.

Usually, he doesn't care much about it, that is, it is relatively big today. He has to listen to it, otherwise he has already returned home. Sit boring and couldn't leave. Prince Qing looked at Zhang Nanpi, who was handling the document.

"It seems that there is such a matter, but it's too expensive. A gun and four hundred cannon bullets have 100,000 silver. Beiyang has no money. When the money arrives, the peace talks start again, so I didn't buy it again." Zhang Nanpi stopped. Pen, helplessly look at Prince Qing.
