I passed the London Peace Conference before and established a lot of things. One of them was very important to the British, that was, I acquired shares in the Panama Canal, and naturally, that I could do business with the American Empire.

The two sides had a good talk, and the tariffs were roughly equivalent. Naturally, one of the principles of this thing is to protect one's own weaknesses and then highlight one's own strengths.

What are the strengths of the British?

In the British's considerations, it is naturally some high-end things.

Although the British's textile industry was very developed, everyone knew before that the American Empire had built a lot of cotton in the southern United States, and their costs in this regard were relatively low. So the tariffs on this textiles were almost the same, so the key point should be something else.

As a factory in the world, the British have this confidence that their machine tools are the best today. In other words, the British have great advantages in high-end manufacturing, which is a fact that almost the whole world knows.

Unless they are really uncivilized, they will know it, even the rulers of the Qing Dynasty know it, and now Germany is starting to learn it.

Since that's the case, this aspect should be your own fist, or a heavy punch. Naturally, your American empire should not be too much in terms of tariffs.

You really don’t know that the American Empire is really very respectful. After the negotiations were made, we should collect it at about 15%!

You see, 15%, this tax rate is much lower than the average tax rate of the American Empire, so this is very beneficial to the British. Of course, the UK also needs to tax high-end manufacturing goods in the American Empire according to this standard.

Then this is very good. When the negotiations are over, the UK is very happy to say that they all feel that they have gotten a big advantage!

It can be imagined that in the near future, the American Empire will be filled with British machine tools and British high-end products...

But, until now, the British found that something seemed wrong!

Why is something wrong?

I originally thought that British mechanical machine tools and other things would have a good sales route in the American Empire. This matter was somewhat accomplished, that is, the American Empire really imported a lot of British machine tools and equipment. However, the British found that they still had never made any profit in the American Empire.

Because the American Empire also had many things, similar things, exported to the UK!

What?

The most common product is cars!

This thing is great! Very good! So fashionable! So practical!

Although the British are causing an economic crisis, the British are really rich. After all, they are superpowers at this time. So how will they perform after seeing cars like alien means of transportation?

Buy! Buy! Buy! Buy!

The car is so fresh. Once this thing is driven out, it’s so easy to kill all kinds of beautiful girls!

The British are really not short of local tyrants at this time, and the price is really cheap. The highest-end car produced by the Empire Red Flag Automobile Factory is priced at 1,500 American dollars per unit. After this guy was converted to the UK, it was only 300 pounds, which was almost the same amount. So is this very cheap, okay?

Which businessman can't afford this money? Which noble master can't even get three hundred pounds?

So, the British really bought a lot of cars, and the number is really far more than the machine tools the American Empire bought from the UK!

And, don’t forget, there are tractors and electric lights in the Empire!

Electric lights, this thing is so fresh. It’s so small, very small, much stronger than the kerosene lamp. After a British businessman looked at it, he immediately proposed to do this in the UK. This is a must.

But you have to know that this thing needs electricity, and it requires a power station. This is a set of things, so do you want it...

"Sell! Don't be afraid!" Li Mengyang made such an instruction at that time. He was not afraid of the British who learned our skills, and he was really not afraid!

Why?

It’s simple. If you want to develop technology faster, then you naturally have to be ‘open source’. The more people participate in this technology, it is the industrial chain generated by this technological revolution. Only then can this technology develop faster, and we humans enter the next era faster!

And the most important thing is that Britain has a relatively complete patent protection law in the world today. So, our empire... is sucking blood!

"Not only sell it! There are also open and confident sell it!" Li Mengyang said at that time, which was righteous, but as for the blood-sucking... it was covered up by slogans like all-hail-lee.

And not only these, but also medical care. The empire has penicillin. This thing is priced at gold when it comes to the UK!

besides……

By the way, aluminum, but Li Mengyang secretly did this thing. Don’t put too much in the supply of it all at once, otherwise the price of aluminum will drop, so how can we suffer a lot?

So, just these products are simply fist products, and they hit the British in the face one punch after another!

This has no advantage in doing business with the American Empire. Instead, it has been made a lot of gold by others. This...

The current international currency exchange is actually mainly about the consideration of gold and silver. Most European and American countries stipulate how much gold and silver their currencies contain, and then exchange them according to this. Therefore, this is equivalent to the flow of British gold to the American Empire.

Then, why doesn’t this matter feel like it’s not a good thing, right? What should I do?

To be honest, Disraelli, the current British Chancellor of the Exchequer, oh, by the way, he had become the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom before, which means he is now in the true sense of power, the Prime Minister and the Minister of Finance, but this guy is actually a Jew, that is, he is also a shrewd businessman, so in the face of such a situation, he soon had a solution.

"Sell the goods of the American Empire to the European continent!"

Yes. This is the solution of the Prime Minister Disraelli at the formal meeting, so to speak...

This trick is very high!

You see, things from the American Empire are so popular, and this thing can only be traded with the UK now. Doesn’t that mean that Britain now controls the supply of tight goods?

The UK is also Europe, so the people's preferences should be similar, so I can sell these things to countries in the European continent such as France. You can imagine...

You really don't know, it's very popular!

Isn't this the same as Britain lost gold, but it made up for it from the European side.

From then on, Britain has embarked on the path of a second-hand dealer, and they will make a lot of profits for a period of time, but!

This is really strange to say that the world's factory was originally a world-wide factory, but now it has become a logistics company!

But no matter what, just make money, and the British recognize this.

It can be said that these international trades are absolutely beneficial to the empire in terms of development. Then this is real money now, and don’t forget that Emperor Li Mengyang is still using military force against the United States. He wants to fight a national war, and this money will also be of great help to him.

Then the British became a second-hand dealer, which is equivalent to helping Li Mengyang, but what about Li Mengyang's opponent?

"What?! General Sherman was ambushed?! The 40,000 troops disappeared like this?!"

In the White House in Washington, you can hear screams from the president's office from a distance. Obviously, President Lincoln was very shocked by this incident.

Yes, as the president of the United States, it would be strange if he was not surprised. It was called more than 40,000 people.

"Mr. President, this..." Minister of War Cameron felt a little uncomfortable at this time. It was not that he felt uncomfortable, but that he felt that his old face had no place to put it.

Before, Cameron insisted on asking Sherman to pursue him, but now with such a result, how can he come to Taiwan?

It is said that it has been two months since Mexico's Tonggu ambush ended, and now the military newspaper has just come here, which is entirely because of the slow transmission of information at this time.

You know, General Sherman was not captured. He found the rules of artillery at that time and fled all the way to the back. Behind his army was a pack horse team, responsible for heavy weapons and equipment. Therefore, these pack horses were not scared to run around. So Sherman and Greg rode these horses back to the United States.

The telegram was sent only when he arrived in the United States. Delnot had a telegram line, but where did Sherman dare to go back there? He found Dias's team and returned from the lower reaches of the River Grand.

So, it's too late, but now...

"Mr. President! This failure is entirely because of the fool Sherman, who despised the opponent! He actually led his troops into the canyon..."

Cameron was a random talk by Barabala. He had never seen what the copper valley looked like. If he had seen it with his own eyes, he would definitely suck his mouth. Fortunately, Lincoln didn’t know how vast the copper valley in Mexico was!

In this way, wouldn’t Cameron take away his responsibilities? It’s so high.

However, now is not the time to consider these issues. Will the United States be in danger at this time?

The president asked, "Mr. Cameron, how much threat do you think that tyrant poses to us? Are we going to send more people to Texas?"

It was normal for Lincoln to ask about this, but Cameron laughed.

"Mr. President! We naturally want to send more people, but you are not too afraid of that tyrant. It is not easy for that bastard to attack us, haha..."

ah?

Lincoln couldn't help but feel a little suspicious. Did Comrade War Minister comfort himself?

Cameron could naturally see Lincoln's mentality, but he said confidently: "Don't worry! Mr. President, war is not that easy to fight!"

Why is Cameron so confident? (To be continued...)
Chapter completed!
