Chapter 694: Guangzhou thing
Peter Wright was reprimanded by a female stream, and he couldn't even say much. He lost his face and returned to the British office in Kaohsiung angrily. Talking about today's insult with Zhu Hongmaofan, he cried out!
The dignified man cried out, and the Hong Maofan looked at each other.
The office is located near the sea, and you can see the warships of the Southeast Mansion when you look out. The unprofitable Hong Maofan finally tasted the bitter taste and was threatened by other people's artillery!
The Southeast Mansion is really not afraid of war. This regime has risen in the flames of war and will never fight for a year!
The situation was stronger than others. Peter Wright cried for a while, calmed down, settled down, wrote a letter, and sent it to India by the Clippers staying in Kaohsiung. As for himself, he had to rush to Guangzhou with tears in his mouth. Deal with their "medicine!"
As soon as he left the port, two cruise ships from the Southeast Palace would follow him!
When he went to Guangzhou in a few days, Peter Wright convened a meeting with the relevant red-headed boat owners. He heard that he was going to ship all the medicines back, and suddenly those boat owners blew up the camp!
They worked so hard to transport the medicines to Guangzhou, hoping to make a lot of money with this ticket. Now if they want them to take it away, the big loss does not count. The key is to sell them to whom?
They know the efficacy of those medicines, and they dare not transport them back to their hometowns to poison their family members, so they sell them to India?
The princes of the Tubang were rich, but the quantity was small and they couldn't sell many goods.
In addition, the Indians, the Ottoman Turks and the Mughal Empire, they have strong resistance to medicines: "What are you afraid of when you get sick? We have God bless you!"
For these people who don’t need to take medicine when they are sick, even the best medicine for Hong Maofan can’t be sold.
What's more, the Arab region where it is located has long been a good medicine-----Mummy powder, a "medicine that can cure all diseases and is more effective than the red hair fan!"
The best buyers are Daming in the East and neighboring countries. For example, a lot of medicines are sold in Annan.
Hearing the protests of the people, Peter Wright was irritated, suppressing the emotions he wanted to explode, and asked in a low voice: "Do you have artillery?"
"Yes!" This question was asked inexplicably, and the red hairs responded.
"Then our artillery is thicker, bigger and harder than the Southeast Mansion?" He asked again.
"Of course not enough!" All the Hong Maofan admitted.
"Okay, do you understand?" Peter Wright said.
"Understood!" The reason was intuitive, and all the red hair fans drooped their heads.
Although their merchant ships are equipped with artillery and can serve as military ships and pirate ships, there are battleships in the Southeast Mansion!
He is an army, but he is a miscellaneous army. How to fight? !
So Hong Maofan gave in, and Peter Wright warned, "Take everything away. They gave us three days to leave until the west of the Strait of Malacca!"
He asks everyone to stop playing tricks and do things honestly.
That night, he stayed at the office near Huangpu Wharf. In the middle of the night, he heard the voices of people outside, shouting to catch the thief, and then there was loud gunfire and even artillery, followed by bomb explosions unique to the Southeast Army. Boom!
There was a mess outside, and Peter Wright's heart was raised.
He heard the sound of the cannon from the Southeast Ship, and hit the Huangpu Wharf berth. At the same time, he heard that it was British artillery fighting back!
But because of the turmoil outside, Peter Wright didn't dare to go out casually.
The truth came to light after daybreak. There was someone from Peter Wright’s office early in the morning. It was a visitor from the government. He followed the people to the wharf to see. Several red hairs sat down on the ground with their heads down and a dozen dead nearby. Personally, there are a lot of medicines, and the officers and soldiers of the Ming Dynasty government and the Southeast Army are watching them.
And the three British merchant ships in the distance have already dropped their flags and replaced them with the flags of the Southeast Mansion!
It turns out that those Hong Maofans used the dark to contact the Mingren brokers, and wanted to sell the medicines, but they were caught right away!
People have been waiting there for a long time. With the officers and soldiers of the Ming government, the navy battalion and the Southeast Marines working together, how can Hong Maofan survive!
He didn't have to fight at all, caught it on the spot, and got the spoils, and Peter Wright had nothing to say.
Although they were able to buy off the Guangzhou government, the Guangzhou officials were even more afraid of the Southeast government.
"According to the previous statement, you have to take the medicine away. If there is any violation, the ship and goods will be confiscated, the trade permit will be cancelled, and the country will be deported!"
"But your people resisted arrest and killed our people. This is the account!" Shi Shiran, a Ming official, said authentically.
He was wearing Da Ming's official clothes, and his tone of voice was as if he were an official of the Southeast Government!
Peter Wright said helplessly: "What are you doing?"
"Killing five of us, one paying one thousand Spanish silver dollars, wounding eight people, one paying two hundred Spanish silver dollars, confiscating three ships and goods, canceling trade permits, and deporting. How do you think?" the official asked .
"Okay!" Peter Wright sighed deeply and agreed.
When he talked with the few tied red hair fan, the red hair fan became excited.
This is so special that we went bankrupt!
"Shutup!" Peter Wright told them to shut up angrily.
He is for their good. If he fails to comply, the Southeast Mansion will use the iron fist of the dictatorship and arrest them for labor reform!
Working hard in sand yards, mines, brick yards and plantations for atonement, the labor reforms in the southeast province are frightening. Not to mention the low crime rate in the southeast province itself. Even the crime rate in the south of the Ming Dynasty is very low. The official favorite is to sentence criminals to exile in Southeast Mansion-----Southeast Mansion is Daming's territory!
In this way, ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ is a cheap and profitable business. Ming Dynasty officials get rebates to eliminate local instability, and Southeast Province gets the population it needs!
The people of the Ming Dynasty were not stupid. If they were exiled too much, the crime rate would drop. Otherwise, they would be caught in Southeast Asia to open up wasteland. Row!
Peter Wright is a Chinese expert, and he understands the bad style of Southeast Mansion very well. He promised to be right. It seems that the Ming official still looks regretful!
The fines paid are from the personal property of the red hairpins. If it is not enough, Peter Wright will advance it first, but he will turn the red hairpins into white contract slaves so that they can earn enough silver dollars to pay him back. of.
Taking advantage of this incident, Peter Wright summoned the owners of the boats and talked to them, so the owners of the boats were bitter, and they would run as fast as they could. Get off the boat!
Since he couldn't sell the goods, he stayed here for one more day, and he would have to pay one more day, so the shrewd Hong Maofan had to leave.
Within a day, the Hong Maoban boat in Guangzhou ran away by one-half, which shows how much medicine it sells.
They usually sell medicines in Guangzhou, get silver, buy silk tea and porcelain, and ship them back to Europe. This is very profitable.
Now that the Southeast Mansion is like this, many hong fangs are facing the crisis of bankruptcy!
Peter Wright also lost a lot of equity. He gritted his teeth with hatred, but there was nothing unusual on his face.
In fact, he was an old captain. He came to Asia from Europe. He had seen all the big winds and waves, so he endured it and devoted himself to inquiring about the news of the Southeast Mansion.
Soon after, he learned that Yan Changwu, the boss of the Southeastern Prefecture, had come to Taiwan and kept moving, so Peter Wright secretly wrote a letter again, looking for a ship to send it back to his stronghold in the Indian Ocean. uMore wonderful novels, welcome to visit everyone's reading academy
