Heaven's Change of Fate

Chapter 19 The deal is reached
"What?" The leader squinted his eyes, and the other two Britons touched their guns subconsciously. Liang Kuan and Ma Er also took out their guns at the same time.

The originally peaceful atmosphere instantly became extremely tense.

"The goods are paid in reverse, and the goods must be delivered to Foshan Wharf." Yang Xin said coldly.

"Impossible, your admiral is very strict. It is impossible for us to deliver the goods to the Foshan port." The leader of the British said shaking his head.

"Must! Nalan Yuanshu's investigation is very strict, but it only targets Guangdong, the provincial capital. You can put down the boat in the open sea and let the boat go to Foshan by water. Besides, as the general agent of Guangzhou, you should give me some benefits." , the price is [-]% lower." Yang Xin opened his mouth coldly.

"Impossible, impossible!" The leading Briton jumped.

"If you don't agree, then the official will send someone to Annan, I believe the Gallic Rooster will be willing. Follow us early in the morning, and you should have found out the details of this official in most of the day. You should know that the official and the black Huang Feihong, the head coach of the Banner Army, is friendly, and Liu Yongfu, the commander of the Black Banner Army, is in Annan." Yang Xin smiled softly, and looked at the visitor with contempt.

"Damn Annan, damn Gallic rooster." The face of the visitor changed. Annan is the site of the Gallic rooster, and the Gauls also started growing opium there, and began to compete with Britain for business. Moreover, the Britons obviously passed most of the day. It took time to find out the details of Yang Xin, and knew that the person in front of him was a genuine military officer of the Qing Dynasty. Although it was donated, his connection with the Black Banner Army was undeniable.

"We can deliver to Foshan Terminal, but the price will be reduced by up to [-]%, and you must ensure that you can only buy goods from our British East India Company, and you must also ensure that Gaul rooster goods are not allowed in Guangdong." The leader of the British only said Noh said through gritted teeth.

"Deal!" Yang Xin stretched out his hand.

"Oh, damn it, I've never seen such a cunning Qing people." The leader of the British felt that he was a dog, but he could only answer with tears in his eyes. In the end, the visitor still had a hard fight with Yang Xin. Shaking hands means that the contract is established.

"I don't have brandy here, so I can't buy you a drink, but I have these gadgets to celebrate." Yang Xin showed a helpless smile on his face. The country is weak, and he can only do everything he can.

While talking, Yang Xin took out a pack of "General" brand cigarettes, skillfully tore them open, and distributed one to each of them. Under their puzzled eyes, Yang Xin skillfully took a pack of "General" cigarettes. He took out a match and lit it for Yang Xin, and Yang Xin started puffing away.

"This is...a cigarette?" The leading Briton looked at the cigarette in his hand in surprise.

"Yes, with the addition of a filter, it can effectively filter out most of the nicotine in the smoke, making the taste more mellow and less spicy. Also, I have entrusted someone to register a patent in Britain." Yang Xin said quietly .

"You are the most impenetrable Qing person I have ever seen." The leader of the British people admired, and then imitated Yang Xin's example of spitting smoke. From this man's skillful movements, Yang Xin could tell that this man was also the same. A long-time smoker.

"If you are interested, you can sell it for me in the name of a private person. If the stall can be opened, I believe that the profit of cigarettes is not worse than that of drugs." Yang Xin flicked the ash in his hand and said.

The leading Briton's eyes lit up, and he solemnly stretched out his hand and said, "Very well, we are friends now, let me introduce formally, my name is John Elliot."

"Huh?" Yang Xin was taken aback, "Who are you, the first generation ambassador to China, admiral, and Sir Charles Elliot?"

"That's my grandfather. I didn't expect you to know my grandfather's name, and you have a fluent London accent. You are the Qing people who know Britain best I have ever met, my friend." John Elliot said loudly laughed.

"Friend, you are also the smartest China hand I have ever seen." Yang Xin raised the cigarette in Yang's hand and said, "As a friend, I have to make a statement in advance. With my current official position, I can only guarantee that Foshan will only Your goods will appear, and other people's goods will not appear, as long as my official position is promoted or my sphere of influence expands, I can guarantee that only your goods will appear within my sphere of influence."

"My friend, thank you for your frankness. I understand very well. Do we need to do something to promote your official position?" John asked.

"My friend, it's best not to make this a joke. If I know there is collusion between us, I'm afraid my position will not be promoted, but I will be demoted instead." Yang Xin shook his head and said.

"Haha, my friend, this is just a joke." Yang Xin's refusal made John's eyes shine. As a Chinese expert, John knows the virtues of the Qing Dynasty, and it would be easy for him to intervene indiscriminately.

"My friend, I have to declare in advance that I can sell cigarettes for you, but you have to give me a reserve price, and you don't care how much I want to sell." John said, obviously taking Yang Xin as the last The underlying manufacturer.

Yang Xin nodded to express his understanding. Without sales channels, this is the only way to go. Even if John sells cigarettes at a sky-high price, it is his ability. His identity, status, and current position are all capital.

"Deal!" The two shook hands again, and agreed that every time John delivered drugs to the Foshan wharf, Yang Xin would fill the cargo ship with cigarettes. At the same time, John also agreed that Yang would credit cigarettes for part of the goods.

The two successfully completed the transaction in a pleasant atmosphere. Before leaving, Yang Xin specially gave John two boxes of cigarettes, but after John left, Yang Xin's face darkened, and he said in a hateful voice: "Damn Britain! guy."

At the same time, after leaving the room, John Elliot's breezy face sank, and he muttered, "Cunning Qing people."

John Elliot easily saw the value of filter-tip cigarettes. What Yang Xin said had registered a patent was bullshit in John’s eyes. John had no choice but to imitate Yang Xin directly. However, if John wanted to monopolize all the profits, he had to To acquire land overseas to grow tobacco, and to build processing factories, etc., it is better to be an agent to save trouble.

What made John Elliot angry was that he was at a disadvantage in the negotiation process, and the price of cigarettes was set extremely high, twice as high as the cigarettes on the market. However, as long as he shipped the cigarettes out of Qing Dynasty and sold them to Britain, It can also be sold at a high price...

In the following time, Yang Xin stayed at the inn. While recharging his energy, he also secretly collected information about Nalan Yuanshu and the real person of Jiugong of the White Lotus Sect. Huang Feihong did not relax his attention. Yang Xin and others The most important thing is the International Medical Symposium, because there are people Yang Xin is looking forward to meeting.

Sun Wen, the founding father, and Lu Haodong!
