Chapter 633: Make or lose?

Arms trading has always been one of the huge profits. This thing makes money much faster than selling silk, porcelain and tea. No wonder in another time and space history, the five major gangsters shouted slogans of peace while fighting to sell arms all over the world. These include a rabbit who looks harmless and humans who keeps "peaceful rise" all day long.

Speaking of this rabbit, I remembered an interesting story. During the war between the two ys, the warring sides had almost the same financial resources. When they found that they could not do anything to save costs, they started to catch up with the sanctions and the sanctions. The cheap and affordable guy seemed to have no place to look for it. "Peaceful Rise" was attracted by it. Although the quality and accuracy of this company were almost worth it, they could not stand the price and were strong and durable.

So, both countries sent representatives to visit "Peaceful Rise", and both sides received their services at the same time, without delaying the transactions on both sides. Well, that's roughly the case. The battles continued to be hot, and they continued to buy equipment from both companies. There was no way, people were poor and the ambition was short. At that time, they were really poor. These two ys were both rich people who gave US dollars.

Another time, a bigger tyrant came, ww⌒w. He was full of the kind of tyrants of the US President. When he arrived here, the rabbit had an inflated price and felt very embarrassed. As a result, the tyrant said, "No problem, it's so cheap." The rabbit regretted it when he heard this. This is a tyrant among the tyrants, and the knife needs to be sharpened. He quickly said, "We offer US dollars, but I didn't explain it clearly just now." As a result, the tyrant said, which moved the rabbit: "Is there any arms deal in this world that does not use US dollars?"

Well, in front of the US dollar, conscience really doesn’t have much resistance. Do you know the big killer with a range of thousands of kilometers? The rich man is rich. Buy and buy! The rabbit is short of money, so he naturally sells it and gives a relatively good after-sales service plan. It is said that there is no real evidence that the warhead on the big killer is too rich because the rich man is too rich and forgot to remove it.

Japan is not a rich man, but it cannot resist the fact that it is a life-and-death moment. Both sides are selling their own businesses and planning to make good calculations.

Chen Xie did not intend to "interfere" in Japan's internal affairs. But he has no grudge against money, right? As long as he earns money, everything is easy to discuss. He had a good talk with the shogun in front, but then he started a business with the opposition. What's wrong with accepting your gift? That was what you were happy to give, and it wasn't something I forced you to give.

As for whether it will bring deep suffering to the Japanese people, Chen Xie was even less concerned about this matter. He did not see that in history, our great powers sold arms to the "Qing Dynasty" and helped train the army, but also did not forget to transport arms to the "Changmao". Anyway, it's all business. Why bother with what position? What are you worried about when you are an outsider?

The three countries sat together to talk, the formal contract was signed, and the location was naturally chosen in Huating. Amid the slogan of peace, in the atmosphere of friendship for generations of the Three Kingdoms, a fleet with the Ming Navy as the main force, North Korea and Japan were formed. At the same time, a joint pioneer team was announced to be established. Chen Xie was still very concerned about this matter and visited the scene of the founding conference. The pioneer team members from Japan, North Korea and China, a total of 5,000 people, had their first batch of 5,000 people. After the founding conference was announced, they immediately boarded the ship to the senior officials. After receiving adaptive training for a period of time, they went to the distant country to explore when the monsoon came.

Both countries sent important personnel. After each came to the stage to speak, the pioneer team finally set off. The pioneer team dressed the same, and there was no big difference from the appearance. They were all sun hats, grass-green military uniforms, and each person had a big backpack. The equipment was rifled guns, one long and one short, and the shoes were also specially made leather sandals (stand temporarily in the bag).

They all look majestic and majestic, and I don’t know if they can fight on the battlefield. The members of this pioneer team are from Japan, and North Korea is about the same number. The rest are drawn from the Ming army. So many people brought up guys under the banner of pioneering. Uh, why do they bring swords and guns? The pioneer should bring hoes and sickles. The Japanese samurai said that there was no sickle, but they didn’t forget to bring swords.

Maritime navigation and transportation are very troublesome, especially such large-scale armed transportation, which is even more troublesome. There are few countries that are not afraid of trouble doing such things, and there are very few countries with ability. If Chen Xie was not cheating, he could kill people by immigrating alone. Fortunately, the problem of transportation costs has been solved in advance, so this problem is not too big. The civilian maritime transportation industry is prosperous, and there are no less than five or six thousand ships floating on the sea in coastal provinces. Although there are only more than a thousand large ships suitable for ocean-going oceans, they already have enough ability to find ships for transporting these pioneering teams.

Half a year later, in the season when the autumn wind was right, a huge fleet appeared in the Bay of Bengal. This fleet, or fleet, consisted of 70 ships, including twenty third-class battleships, ten fourth-class battleships, and ten fly-scissors. The rest were armed merchant ships. Departed from Dayuan Island, supplied through Manila, then transferred to Brunei, and then transferred to Natuna Island for supplies. After arriving in Temasek, he rested for ten days, boarded the ship again, crossed the strait to come to the Bay of Bengal.

Because the noise was too loud, the colonists from all countries were alarmed. What did the Ming Dynasty want to do? Along the way, ships from various countries kept approaching and inquiring, and the information they received was to escort the three countries' pioneering teams to India to pioneer. Well, the East Asian nations like to open up land and farm, and everyone knows that the ships of various countries had to follow and "protect" the safe navigation of this fleet. It would be impossible not to protect it. Who knew what these people would do when they arrived in India? Protecting ships, from the initial one or two ships to the later warships of the British, Dutch, Portugal and Western countries, had been safely sent to the Port of Mumbai. This territory is now the territory of the Portuguese. After a few years, it was given here as a dowry to the United Kingdom.

The arrival of the Ming fleet scared the Portuguese. Before, the Ming merchant ships came, they were all here to do business, and this time they came with warships. During this period, India was mainly dominated by the Dutch and the Portuguese. As a result, the Dutch had the upper hand, and Portugal could only guard the small islands of Mumbai to survive.

When the Ming fleet arrived, the Portuguese in Mumbai sent a ship out to stop it. At least, ask clearly, are you doing what you are doing? The answer is very clear. The messenger Martinez sent out met Chen Xie, a big devil who was terrified by Europeans, on the flagship. Why is it a big devil? It is very simple. Everyone is a colonist and has done a lot of conscience, but no one is like Chen Xie. One tribe or one tribe surrounded, and the men, regardless of age, will kill them all. If this is to be modern, it will definitely be enough to oppose humans.

Chen Xie stood under the sun umbrella on the deck. He was also very upset, but the fleet's cannons were also aimed at Mumbai.

"Your Excellency, I'm not sure why I led the fleet here in person?" Martinez was respectful and bowed first and then spoke. This man couldn't afford to offend him, and the entire European sailing country knew about it. Chen Xie held up his telescope and looked carefully at the direction of the Port of Mumbai and said, "I've taken a fancy to these islands. I'll buy it."

This is not going to make sense. Anyway, the Portuguese were beaten up by the Dutch, and now they are not strong enough. Who should they bully him if they don’t bully him? “Your Excellency, according to the Four-Nation Alliance Treaty, we are allies, and you can’t treat allies like this.”

Chen Xie sneered: "The four-country alliance covenant is Southeast Asia, not India. Besides, I didn't say that I wanted to fight, I was here to do business. I don't look like you can defend these islands. I am a kind person, loves peace, and likes to resolve disputes by means of business. Go back and tell your governor that I bid 100,000 silver coins."

Lord Chen, who loves peace, said he would use 100,000 silver coins to buy someone's territory, and then this place belongs to him. The problem is that this transaction does not exist. Martinez was trembling all over, but he did not dare to do it, so he quickly went back to report the news. Before dark, he came back, saying that the transaction could be cooperated, but it needed negotiations, and the Portuguese were willing to run the place with the Ming Dynasty.

Chen Xie, who "loves peace", said that he could negotiate. Everyone had a good cooperative relationship before. As long as he could sit down and talk, he could do whatever he wanted. So, a negotiation began, and it was not a family negotiation. Chen Xie specially invited representatives from the British, Dutch and Western countries to attend. This attitude was indeed very "friendly".

Chen Xie made a simple request at the negotiating table. The Ming Dynasty invested money to buy the place, and there was no trouble. The Portuguese representative Governor Rivaldo immediately stated that this was impossible, but a compromise could be taken. The Ming Dynasty paid a fee every year, and both parties could use the place freely. He also hoped to sign a peace agreement. If Mumbai was attacked by ships of unknown nationality in the future, the two countries had the obligation to jointly defend.

Rivaldo's consciousness is now called "shelf disputes and jointly develop". This is probably the meaning. The nature of the problem is different. Chen Xie still felt troublesome and insisted on buying. The two sides had been talking back and forth for three days, and finally reached an agreement. Sell half! Joint half. What does it mean? Just like a combat staff officer of the US imperialists, drawing a line on the Korean Peninsula with a ruler. Well, the 38th-degree line in the north latitude, everyone will divide the boundaries according to this.

It seems that it is irresponsible to the Indian people, but do the colonists need to be responsible to the Indian people?

In the future, Mumbai will be divided into three parts, a middle section, shared on both sides, just like the public concession, everyone can have fun here. Through the fig leaf of the public area, one side is the original landlord Portuguese, and the other side is the later bandit Ming people. This is probably the case. The Ming Dynasty does not need to pay, just extend the Portuguese trade license. Well, it will be automatically extended. It seems that the Portuguese are at a disadvantage, but just look at the great powers that attended, and the Portuguese make a lot of money.
