Chapter 1568 Analysis of European Market
In the room where Zeng Yunfeng and others were staying, Zeng Yunfeng raised his chin towards Scott. Scott took out a small box from the side and took out a few cigars.
Zeng Yunfeng took it and handed it to Gris Allen and several people next to him. Except for the guard, everyone got a cigar.
Zeng Yunfeng pulled out a small dagger only as long as his little finger from his waist. He gently turned the cigar's head on the cigar and a part of it was cut off. He slowly lit the cigar with a match, took a slow puff, and exhaled a mouthful of rich smoke.
.
Suddenly, the room was filled with a unique aroma of tobacco.
Gus Allen also cut off the head of the cigar and lit the cigar with a match. The flame of the match gently burned the cigar. The cigar was slowly lit. Gus Allen also took a gentle puff and let the smoke
Surround it in your mouth and finally spit it out slowly.
Smoking a cigar does not require you to inhale the cigar smoke into your lungs, it is more about feeling the aroma of the cigar.
Although it is not necessary to completely draw the smoke into the lungs, it is enough to make people intoxicated.
Zeng Yunfeng has a special fascination with tobacco. Whether in Middle-earth or in other worlds, as long as he has the opportunity to get tobacco, he will undoubtedly get some. Of course, he is not interested in smoking pipes or water bags.
Not that interested.
"Boss, what are your plans now? After all, you are already here, and it is not that easy to leave easily. Then the Duke does not seem to be so easy to get rid of."
Zeng Yunfeng's index finger, middle finger and thumb gently held the smoke of the cigar. He took another puff, letting the smoke linger above him.
He slowly closed his eyes, "Don't be so anxious. The more eager we are, the more we will fall into a disadvantage. Now our situation is not good!" Zeng Yunfeng paused for a while before continuing: "It's like being quilted on the sea.
We were captured, and even fell into the hands of others, but we still have the right and capital to propose Parley!"
"Pare?" Hearing the word "Pare", Scott suddenly became interested. In this castle, he seemed out of place, and even more at a loss.
On the contrary, he missed those days on the pirate ship even more. At least he seemed relaxed and comfortable, not as restrained as he is now.
After Zeng Yunfeng took two puffs of the cigar, he leaned the cigar against the coffee cup tray and the cigar began to slowly cool down.
Cigars are no better than tobacco, especially later cigarettes. Their combustion efficiency is not that high, and they will not burn out quickly. Only by constantly supporting combustion can cigars continue to burn.
If you don't continue to support combustion, the cigar will slowly cool down and eventually stop burning.
Zeng Yunfeng took the coffee cup out of the tray and rolled the burning part of the cigar butt on the tray twice. The ashes of the cigar naturally fell into the tray.
Zeng Yunfeng then put the cigar in his hand again and said: "The reason they set this up is to covet your ability to transport arms and mobilize materials, Gris."
"The reason why he wants to see me is more because he wants to know how much potential we have so that he can test our details and potential."
With confusion on Gris Allen's face, Zeng Yunfeng took another puff of cigar, picked up the coffee cup with his left hand, and took a sip of coffee.
It is obvious that the situation on the European continent is not as simple as that at sea, but more complicated.
After several years of war, the entire European region has become a mess. Only when a war breaks out will these nobles turn their attention to arms.
And Allen held a powerful arms supply force in his hands, and Prussia could undoubtedly see the power in it.
Zeng Yunfeng looked at Gris Allen, who nodded, obviously agreeing with Zeng Yunfeng's statement.
Of course, it's not just that. Prussia is a very ambitious kingdom. From the time it first turned from a principality to a kingdom, many things have already taken place. Both Frederick and the previous monarch are working hard to strengthen this kingdom.
, the Principality of Brandenburg, where Prussia was originally located, is not a very powerful force. If they want to stand out from the European continent, they undoubtedly need to have both sides, and they need strong support to think on this war-torn continent.
To survive is not as simple as coming from the sea.
At sea, if you really can't beat a pirate ship, you can still rely on your speed to run far away, or even hide on an island to recuperate.
But on this land, states, principalities, and many electorate states stand almost like trees.
Their mutual competition and strife are happening all the time. Whether it is the succession of the throne of Austria, the succession of the king of Poland, or the future of Russia, whenever it involves political continuation and replacement, there will be turmoil.
This turmoil will be captured by other neighboring countries, triggering a series of chain reactions.
Although the European continent is divided into many principalities, principalities, and small lordships, overall, they are still a whole.
No matter whether it is France, Russia, Poland, Denmark, the Netherlands, or even the United Kingdom, no matter how they establish colonies abroad and carry out crazy expansion, they will not directly affect the division of power on the European continent.
On this continent, if you want to truly gain a foothold and even win respect and awe, you need to use guns and cannons to convince the other party.
If you just pursue a peaceful marriage, there will undoubtedly be no bones left that will be eaten by others on this continent.
The war of strong countries annexing weak countries has begun, and once it starts, it cannot be stopped. The glory of the Holy Roman Empire in its early days is no longer the same. The Austrian Succession War has already illustrated the problem.
At this moment, Zeng Yunfeng turned his head slightly and looked at the door, smiling.
"Gris, this is the best time for you to show your talent. Our sphere of influence is far overseas, and the influence here is limited for us, so I need you to move around in order to get the greatest benefits."
"Of course this will bring you great risks. Are you willing to continue to wade through this muddy water?"
Gris Allen hesitated for a moment and immediately replied: "Of course!"
Zeng Yunfeng nodded, "Although we are far away from the European continent, the colonial development of the world is closely related to the war here."
"There is no doubt that the messages sent from here and changes in the situation will affect changes in overseas colonies."
"And entering the center of the power struggle in Europe will undoubtedly be extremely beneficial to us in exploring the Americas."
Spain, the Netherlands, and Portugal have declined, and now it is France, the United Kingdom, and Russia that are showing signs of dominating Europe.
"What about Austria? Boss, don't you think highly of him?" Gris Allen couldn't help but interjected, "And isn't there also Poland?"
Zeng Yunfeng sneered, "Poland is a country with almost no access to the sea. Even Prussia's current position is superior to it, not to mention Denmark. Sooner or later, Poland will encounter the situation of Austria due to the war of succession."
"What about Prussia? It has already shown its prominence now, and there may not be a place for it on the European continent." Gris Allen asked.
"Prussia? He must be able to survive the crisis!"
"crisis?"
"Yes, it is a crisis. Nowadays, Prussia seems to have gained an advantage, but in fact it is full of crises. After a war, several neighboring powers did not gain as much as Prussia. Do you think Prussia does not have a crisis? I think he is in big trouble and cannot handle it.
It’s even possible to destroy the country!”
Gris Allen pursed his lips when he heard this. He obviously saw the opportunities and huge risks in it.
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
