Beiyang reactionaries

Duan Xun also became ruthless.

Even if it affects the temporary economy, it still needs to be done.

"Sir, the latest news."

The war is over.

But the government has more to do.

There is a lot of aftermath work in the Northeast. It takes a long time to digest the sites, concessions, and many mines that have been taken over from Japan. It will not be digested in a short time.In addition, Shanghai has already begun to settle accounts after the fall, and Duan Xun is discussing how to carry out financial reforms in Beijing.But don't look at so many things being handled at the same time, other work of government agencies is also proceeding in an orderly manner.

It is impossible for one to relax.

Especially diplomatic work.

Diplomatic work is currently the busiest.

why?

With the signing of the "Sino-Japanese Treaty of Nanjing", the Chinese government has decided to negotiate with all the great powers.New changes are wanted for many of the terms involved.

Of course, the most important thing is to get back the complete control of the customs.

Including the power to formulate tariff rates, including the issue of equal taxation on foreign goods, all need to be implemented.Although China currently controls customs, many issues must be renegotiated with the foreign powers.This is not to say that China can control the customs easily.Therefore, all departments of the entire Ministry of Foreign Affairs are now running non-stop, busy negotiating with people every day.

Even negotiations with Japan have not ended.

"what happened?"

"China and Germany have just signed the 'Sino-Germany Trade Treaty', 'Sino-Germany Education Cooperation Agreement', 'Sino-Germany Commercial Preferential Terms'."

"What's the content?"

Mack was restless.

London is already very dissatisfied with Ma Kelei, and sent several calls to reprimand Ma Kelei for his mistakes in China.Ask Markle to give London a full report explaining why this happened.At present, although the Chinese government and public opinion have set off waves of "anti-imperialism", the targets are all aimed at the British.

French and American companies, including German companies, have not been greatly impacted.

Just for British businessmen.

This is entirely a matter deliberately guided by the government and the media, and it is a conscious effort to impact British interests.

This situation made Britain very dissatisfied.

Britain is a mercantilist country that attaches great importance to doing business and earning money.Although the United Kingdom is the sustaining country of the current world colonial system, they want more benefits, economic benefits.

What are they doing with the colonies?

Provide yourself with raw materials.

This is especially true for countries like China that they cannot control.

China is poor, but a big country.

British businessmen have made a lot of money in China over the years.Because although China is poor, China has a lot of things that can be exported.From tea to minerals, they are all exported on a large scale.And the flow of British products into China can make a lot of money.

But now?

Hit hard.

Many of China's exports were originally responsible for British businessmen, but now they are handed over to businessmen from other countries, or directly to domestic businessmen.Imported British goods are being suppressed, and goods from other countries are used.Anyway, for now, British goods are not without substitutes.All these caused heavy losses to British businessmen.

Those British businessmen, seeing that their interests were damaged, immediately went to London to sue one by one.

London has repeatedly reprimanded Ma Kelei for his mistakes in China, and criticized Ma Kelei for making wrong judgments, so that London even made wrong decisions.This puts a lot of pressure on Ma Ke class.He must now reverse the passive situation of Britain in China, so he has invited the Chinese government to negotiate.

See how to resolve the current situation.

But I didn't expect that I hadn't negotiated with the Chinese government yet. The Chinese government actually started negotiations with Germany first, and took the lead in formulating some contracts.

"It is a commercial contract for the next five years. Sir, this is the detailed information of the 'Sino-German Trade Treaty'."

"Let me see."

Mark took it over and looked at the front.

After just a little bit of watching, Ma Kelei's face is already very ugly.Because the "Sino-German Trade Treaty" is a treaty in which China exchanges resources with Germany for technology, and in exchange for German companies to open factories in China.

a lot of.

China is a big country.

There are many resources that can be exported.Of course, what China can export now is resources, and China has no industrial products to export.Therefore, in the contract, China exchanged tung oil, bristles, antimony ore, tin ore, peanuts, and even sugar products and natural rubber in exchange for German aid.

Mainly German technology.

Not asking for money.

What is needed is the technical support from Germany.The technical support required is mainly related to the coal chemical industry and the automobile industry.Germany is required to send experts and purchase some German technology patents.

Of course, it also includes the purchase of some machinery and equipment from Germany.

To Marklei's surprise, for the first time, China's exports included natural rubber.China promised to export 30 tons of natural rubber to Germany within the next five years.

This is not a small amount.

Ma Kelei has long heard that China and Southeast Asian Chinese natural rubber tycoons have cooperated to plant natural rubber on a large scale in Hainan, Guangxi, and Yunnan.Did not expect to have production so soon.

It is not a small amount to provide 30 tons in five years.

And other resources, it seems that German industry is really ambitious and needs so many resources to restore German industry.Of course, what surprised Markle even more was China's ambitions.

See what China wants?

coal chemical industry.

The early industrial countries in the world all relied on coal for their development.For example, the most important Ruhr industrial area in Germany is the largest coal base in Germany.

And China's coal reserves are staggering.

There are more and more coal bases in China, and coal production is also getting higher and higher.With so much coal, in addition to using it for ourselves and then selling it, it is of course necessary to develop the coal chemical industry.Because the coal chemical industry includes many fields, regardless of whether it is an industrial field or an ordinary life field, it will be used a lot.

This is one of the standards of an industrial country.

How many upstream and downstream industries can a coal chemical industry generate and how much profit can it create.Once China has a complete coal chemical industry, China's industrial level, especially the chemical level, can advance by leaps and bounds.
