2072 Wang Ju's doubts
"My Director Wang, can I not betray myself? Look at the UK's situation, it's definitely about eating people!"
Just when Benjamin was conspiring to plot against Xiao Letian, Xiao Letian was also working hard for Director Wang. After all, Xiao Letian talked about private business in diplomatic occasions, and this kind of behavior would be very unfavorable to the reputation of the head of state if it spread.
But Xiao Letian had no choice. He had now entered the heartland of Europe and entered the old nest of British forces. To put it bluntly, Britain had the strength to hack more than 2,000 people at any time.
There are so many things to massacre the envoys in human history. If you kill with the power of Britain, you will be killed. No one on the entire earth can stand up for you.
Even if you don’t kill, there will be no good results. If Britain detains Xiao Letian’s two thousand “guards”, then let alone participate in the Franco-Prussian War, I’m afraid you won’t even be able to get out of the British border.
"My Director Wang, now the UK has clearly shown that it is going to alienate Zai Chun and encourage Zai Chun to go solo, so our plan must be adjusted. I must make the British judgement on the threat to me..."
"To be honest, within ten to twenty years, we really don't have the strength to wrestle the British arm!"
Wang Huaiyuan's brow frowned into the Sichuan word "Is it useful to be self-deprecating? Can Zaichun return to our control again? Will Britain not deal with us? It's not that simple..."
"No...it still has a role!" Xiao Letian said firmly, "British is a mercantilist country, which is the foundation of their country. Basically, after the glorious revolution, the remnants of feudal thoughts in Britain were completely cleaned..."
"You can think about it. Even the royal family has started to invest in business. British aristocrats actually have dual identities. One level is aristocrat and the other level is a merchant. They are very capable of doing business!"
"What do businessmen value? You may say it is profit, but it is not comprehensive! In fact, what businessmen value most is contract and communication, which is the foundation of all business behaviors!"
"In any region with developed commercial conditions, the people will definitely respect the contract. They will definitely abide by the contract agreement, because integrity is the cornerstone of developed commercial conditions. Once the spirit of the contract is gone, then business transactions will be no longer fair!"
"The second point is communication. Business exchanges are inherently mutual communication. What you lack is what I have. Exchanges can ensure that both parties can get benefits... In other words, communication is very important. Why did the Qing Dynasty finally go to war with Britain? It is because the Qing Dynasty completely rebelled against these two key business laws!"
"The door of communication was closed, which made British merchants unable to find a way to negotiate at all. Then the monarchy was more powerful than anything else. The bureaucrats ate merchants tightly. The contract and contract were in the Qing Dynasty, which was to wipe the butt paper, which could be abolished at will!"
"This behavior that completely violates business standards has touched the bottom line of the British. At the same time, Britain is still inseparable from the huge market of the Qing Dynasty. In the end, the conflicts accumulate more and more, so we have to start a war..."
"The Qing Dynasty refused to confront the British at the negotiating table, so it was only possible to reason on the battlefield. To put it bluntly, the Qing Dynasty was just trying to kill himself!"
"It is important to remember that mercantilism is not the domineering businessman. Real businessmen value long-term interests and sustainable development more. On the contrary, only the bureaucratic class cares more about the huge profits in front of them, because it is difficult for fathers and sons to pass on official positions, but business can be passed down for hundreds of years..."
"I am showing off such a philandering businessman today. On the surface, the Duke of Newcastle is very angry, but have you noticed it? Whenever the negotiations are about to collapse, whenever he is most angry, he can pull it back from the brink of turning against him..."
"This is the quality of a businessman! It is much better to be quarreled at the negotiating table than to accumulate conflicts on the battlefield to resolve them... In fact, this is how it should be done in business. The two sides reached a balance in the quarrel, so that they can continue to cooperate!"
"I put my posture in front of the British, which will reassure the merchants of this country and let them know that I am actually the same type of people as them. Only in this way can they eliminate their vigilance!"
"As for Benjamin? The information sent by King Wing and Fang Guan all affirmed that his attitude would not change, which means that Benjamin is our biggest enemy... My play is not for him to watch, but for Benjamin's political enemies!"
"Of course there are countless nobles in Britain! Don't worry, it will have a certain effect..."
Looking at Xiao Letian's sure expression, Director Wang finally put his heart down and sighed, "Wing King... Speaking of Fang Guan and Wing King, I really miss them. I don't know if they have lived well in the past few years?"
"Okay! How can it be bad? After the Wing King changed his appearance, he has become a famous European wild diplomat, and is now in London!"
Xiao Letian was right. The Wing King was waiting for Xiao Letian's arrival in London with Fangguan. In an ordinary tavern on the East End of London, there was a table of exquisite French cuisine on the table in the box on the second floor, but it was not red wine, but a large beer-piggy mug, and the strong aroma of dark beer was foaming.
The Wing King and Fang Guan were having a meal with William Yuger Gladstone, the leader of the British Liberal Party. It seems that the cooperation between the two sides has entered a deeper stage. A thick kraft envelope is placed beside Gladstone.
Fangguan smiled and patted the kraft envelope. "Dear sir, this is the third political donation. The China-Germany Friendship Foundation once again supports the Liberal Party with 500,000 pounds... Now do you believe in our sincerity?"
Gladstone inserted a mouthful of veal and chewed it in his mouth. After swallowing it, he nodded expressionlessly, "Not enough, I need more, I want 800,000 pounds for the fourth donation..."
"You must know that it costs money to carry out public opinion propaganda in newspapers and media, and it also costs money to help the extremely poor people in the name of the Liberal Party. I also have to buy the MPs who are swaying in the middle. It is not enough if there is too little money!"
