After talking about this, you have already entered a situation that ordinary people cannot understand. Only politicians who have learned it can understand what Cai Bixia is talking about.

What is war? No justice or not, no matter what freedom of belief, war is a business, a super big deal that is above all business!

From the moment humans learn to use tools, they can already arm their hands. The wooden sticks are not necessarily used to fight cattle, sheep and horses, and can also break the heads of other tribe warriors!

A polished stone knife and axe can not only be used to cut prey, but also cut off the heads of competitors!

Requesting resources from nature is a way for humans to survive. Then raising a butcher knife to their own kind is also a way to survive, and they will even live better!

People can not only teach cattle, sheep, horses, cats, dogs, chickens, ducks, and animals! People can also teach people that they become slaves! How were so many towering buildings pruned in ancient times?

Didn’t the extravagant life of the nobles before the Qin and Han dynasties support the support of slaves?

Even if slavery is abolished, humans will still start from their own kind. The wheat in the Central Plains is ripe? Click on the cavalry and rob it!

Are cattle and sheep outside the Great Wall in herds? Didn’t the powerful Central Plains dynasty extort some tributes?

The history of human development is a history of similar murder without any sympathy. In order to survive or live better than others, starting a war is never a moral burden!

Primitive people cast bronze, sharpened sharp iron swords, and invested money in the army. Then people in the 19th century would also load cannons and build a large amount of money to invest in powerful armed forces!

The army was built with a lot of money. Should it be placed there as a decoration? Do you not see profits when investing? Obviously, politicians are more responsible than ordinary people, and they are obviously smarter!

All the common people know that spending money will always bring some rewards, but those people don’t know?

The British and French coalition forces obtained the authorization of the parliament with a small vote and invested a lot of money to form an expeditionary force, spending millions of pounds to attack your Qing Dynasty. Is it for the sake of a bullshit morality?

The first thing he has to solve is to reimburse military expenditure first. After defeating you, you must at least plunder a large amount of war compensation, and others must make money!

What is the difference between investing in forming an army and the funds for forming a company? Money gathers together and makes profits. If you don’t make a profit, why do you still make money? Only fools can do money-lossing transactions!

Cai Bixia glanced at Yi Li, who was drooling, and said with a sneer, "Actually, there is nothing to discuss about purchasing arms. Sometimes your decision is not what you want!"

"It's your competitors who decide! If others have it, you don't, then you will throw yourself into an extremely dangerous situation!"

"The money invested by others has been converted into combat power. One day in the future, you will be able to defeat you on the battlefield, and then earn back the investment ten times the compensation!"

"Airships are very expensive. Without six or seven million taels, you cannot form combat power. But once this combat power is formed, maybe one day you can earn 16 or seven million from the enemy!"

"Is this account difficult to settle? Should I be a loser and be plundered by others, or should I be a winner and plunder others?"

"You can't just participate in the arms race if you don't want to participate! Are you dreaming of closing your door and living your own life? The enemy has already prepared a cannon to explode your small door!"

None of these princes could refute Cai Bixia's words. This is a bloody reality and a bend that the common people can't understand!

The people always naively think that if I don’t kill people or set fires, if I don’t eat poisonous people and don’t do illegal things, I will live my stable life well, so why is it hindering others?

But if your family has money, it will definitely hinder others. Why do robbers reason and compassionate to you? If your family has money and food, this is the only reason why they attack you!

The Japanese eyes flashed. He had already understood Cai Bixia's subtext. The meaning was very clear. If you don't spend this money, don't talk about Chinese and foreigners. If Emperor Tongzhi had such an airship unit in his hands, the end of your Xishan Camp would have arrived!

Zaichun has 30,000 new Royal Guards, as well as the Chinese and British supporters. This situation is a balanced situation where he is afraid of both sides of the wolf!

Although Xishan Camp won because of its strong military strength, it could not withstand the enemy's new weapons!

It is unrealistic to expect the airship troops to kill more enemies, but at a critical moment on the battlefield, this weapon will be of great effect!

Not only that, such troops can also have a great psychological shock to the enemy, and the morale of the army will be devastated by then!

Things are really good, but where can I buy them? Even if I purchase them at the price of Emperor Tongzhi’s 450,000 taels of silver per ship, including training and supporting facilities, the army composed of nine airships will still cost five or six million taels of silver!

Although the Qing Dynasty had a great family and great business, there were too many places to spend money, and no one could say that he would take out so much money in one go!

Fortunately, this business is too big and you don’t need to make a decision today. The princes still have time to discuss when they look back!

"Several princes, I have already said this, so it's boring to say it! Anyway, you have to discuss it carefully when you go back, so why not be like this today..."

Cai Bixia knew that the fire could not be too big, otherwise it would be ruined. She was ready to leave at the critical moment!

"Wait..." Yi Li and the sixth Japanese actually shouted in unison.

The two looked at each other, and Yi Li said to Cai Bixia with a slight look on her face, "That... that Mr. Cai... he has to eat a glass of wine before leaving, otherwise we are really lacking etiquette!"

Bah! Several princes and the eunuchs in Yin'an Hall have started to curse in their hearts. This is really embarrassing to the Pacific Ocean. Even you dare to seduce the negotiation envoys between countries?

The Japanese Six stomped his feet hard, "You retreat, why are you talking so much nonsense?"

It is rare that Yi actually gave Cai Bixia a hand: "Mr. Cai, you are Xiao Letian's special envoy. I'm afraid that this time I came to the capital to sell arms, right?"

"As you, there are so many big things to do. This kind of small task can be completed by sending someone to anyone in the God of Wealth Fan Yan!"

"I'm afraid, what you mean is, right? Let's talk about it openly..."

Papa... Cai Bixia applauded and said, "It's fun to have fun... Talk to people who understand it is fun!"

"I'll tell the truth. The Qing Dynasty's fiscal surplus in the past two years, and it actually had an additional surplus of more than 10 million yuan on the books a year..."

"But it's not enough. This little money is not enough for such a huge empire... How many money can you spend after several droughts? How many years have you said that the Huanghuai River has not been cleaned up?"

"So don't dislike listening. No matter how good this airship is, you can't afford it!"

"Let's find a way to increase revenue and reduce expenditure! As long as you go to the Chinese concession to a few special zones, the rent can naturally offset the arms costs!"

"This is a good deal without capital. The Chinese people like the ownerless wasteland and wasteland. Even if there are some landlords, the procurement cost will not be high!"

"With useless land in exchange for the world's top arms, this deal is very cost-effective!"
