2456 Harvest Season

Facts proved Xiang Ying's judgment. Driven by Gladstone, under the royal default, the House of Commons passed the sale plan for the Mauritius Nature Reserve with an absolute advantage of 21 votes.

Princess Sissi joined forces with the Chinese Ministry of Finance in her personal name to raise 100,000 pounds to permanently purchase 800 square kilometers of land in northern Mauritius. The dodos in the Royal Botanical Garden will continue to reproduce and survive here forever. The Queen ordered that any hunting and trading behavior be illegal before the dodo population recovers.

It has to be said that Xiao Letian created a world number one. He was the first person to establish a nature reserve in human history. The first law to protect endangered species was also due to him.

Conservationists in later generations all praised Xiao Letian as the ancestor of his own line. This was an unexpected gain that Xiao Letian had unexpectedly achieved.

Three hours after the vote of the House of Commons ended, the House of Lords had no objection at all and actually passed the purchase case unanimously. That afternoon, the Royal Asset Management Office signed an agreement with the Chinese representative Sima Yun. A promissory note of 100,000 pounds was sent and a certificate of land ownership of 800 kilometers was issued.

Countless reporters’ cameras record this moment of history!

The British did not know that just half a month before the agreement was signed, Xiao Letian had already sent a secret message to Ryukyu, causing the left-behind official Xiao Hexin to start preparing to immigrate to Mauritius.

According to the plan, in 1870, the Chinese people would immigrate to Mauritius for 30,000, which was already the population size of a medium-sized county town in this era.

These 30,000 people can build 800 square kilometers of land into a self-sufficiency and self-sufficiency area within three or four years, so as to ensure self-sufficiency in food while also developing some economic crops.

A new port city dominated by Chinese will appear in Mauritius, and Chinese businessmen gradually explore trade routes in Madagascar and eastern Africa, thereby creating an economic foundation for more immigrants in the later period.

In ten years, the population of Chinese people in Mauritius will definitely exceed 100,000. With these 100,000 people at the bottom, Chinese culture will become the mainstream, thus creating favorable conditions for the complete annexation of the island in the later period.

Xiao Letian knows how to tolerate it very well. He knows that the future world is not peaceful. No matter how his foreign butterfly flaps his wings, the wheel of history will not change much.

Because capitalism is destined to evolve towards imperialism, this is inevitable for the development of human history, and when imperialism develops to a certain stage, it will inevitably trigger a world-class war.

The two world wars are probably difficult to avoid, because it is impossible for emerging nations to take office without challenging the old lion king. The imbalance in colonial distribution will eventually be reshuffled by war.

Although what is signed now is just ordinary land property sales contracts, Britain's sovereignty has not been challenged, including the western Australia region analyzed by Xiang Ying, which will also begin to emigrate Chinese people in the Mauritius model.

But when the huge crisis of Western civilization occurred, there would be room for negotiation for this agreement. By then, the Chinese people had become stronger and became the biggest force in Asia.

Both sides of the conflict will try their best to start diplomatic contact with the Chinese. If the UK wants to get the support of the Chinese, it will definitely not work without bleeding.

These areas where Chinese live naturally have the excuse of being incorporated into the Chinese. Even when conditions are ripe, these reclamation areas can declare their independence.

The decline of the empire is certain. What Xiao Letian has to do now is to lay his hands in advance within his huge colonial system and try his best to cut his flesh against the backdrop of the collapse of the British colony.

The master's layout has a profound vision, which is really imaginable!

When Xiao Lotte and Gladstone were drinking and having fun, it was naturally the lonely day for the British colonialists. Benjamin returned to the countryside manor and was too lazy to see his subordinates even if he stayed in the door.

The remaining colonial factions in Congress are not opponents of conservatives like Glaston. They not only cannot stop Mauritius's sales contracts, but also cannot prevent the Prime Minister and the Chinese from getting closer and closer.

When the two commissioned commissioners of the Royal Assets Department and representatives of the Chinese Finance Ministry jointly set off for the Indian Ocean on a boat, Gladstone officially announced that they would exchange letters of nationality with the Chinese on Christmas this year.

As soon as the news came out, public opinion was in an uproar, and all stocks related to Oriental business in the City of London surged one after another.

Britain finally recognized the national status of the Chinese nation, and Xiao Letian's British chess game finally came to an end perfectly. Almost at the same time, Prime Minister of Prussia sent a congratulatory message to Xiao Letian and invited the head of state and the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty to visit Prussia in the spring of 1870.

Since Emperor Tongzhi was assassinated, good news from the visiting group has been one after another. The Chinese restaurant jointly invested by Xiao Lotte and the Duke of Newcastle has finally officially opened.

The hot scene is conceivable. There are more than 80 tables on three floors. The reservations on the day were scheduled for half a year. The delicious Chinese food and the combination of the killer of Fresh Source directly ignited the taste buds of Londoners.

It is impossible for ordinary people to enter the door of Chinese restaurants. The lowest consumption of each table here costs 800 pounds. Who can afford such delicious food if you are not the top rich?

On the day of the opening, Crown Prince Edward came to support him, and the Queen sent the royal housekeeper to deliver flower baskets, which directly positioned the restaurant to the top of the pyramid and became the most luxurious synonym for London's catering industry.

Four stores opened at the same time, and the turnover reached a terrifying turnover of 180,000 pounds on the day of opening. Then with the launch of more high-end dishes, the turnover rose, and the highest was rushing to 260,000 pounds.

All the nobles who invested in the Duke of Newxll were laughing crazy. The average turnover of a day was actually 200,000 pounds. This was no longer a chicken laying golden eggs, but now it was a diamond!

Xiao Letian was also stupid. He was shocked by the wealth of the British senior executives in this era. It was indeed an empire that the sun never set. This required a lot of wealth from the world and how rich the people were to support their crazy consumption.

The entire envoy was shocked. Luo Huo smiled and slapped his thighs. He didn't have any way to keep the door in his mouth regardless of Emperor Tongzhi's mouth.

"This group of European fools who have never seen the market, this money is so easy to make! Why didn't we expect this? The emperors of the Ming and Qing dynasties were all a group of fools!"

"Stay away from the country? Reduce your grandma's legs! If you don't make money, you will be in a vain!"

"There is no more money in this world, just like the water in the ocean. Others make our money, and we also make their money! Everyone is happy when they come and go, so naturally there is no war to fight!"

"Hahaha, these fools will know that they will be closed to the country!"

Zaichun's face turned pale, but he couldn't find any excuse to refute Luo Huo. Facts are better than words. Through this trip to Europe, Zaichun could have seen the power of business with his own eyes.

He once complained to his ancestors more than once. What if the Qing Dynasty chose to open its doors to trade with the West during the reign of Emperor Qianlong of Kangxi and Emperor Qianlong? Will history be another way?
