Chapter 465: German help

Wu Shaoting smiled meaningfully and asked, "What's wrong with Mr. Jazz?"

Andrei then said: "I heard recently that General Wu seems to be in an arms business with the French, and it is a new weapon. I think it is necessary to clarify the relationship between General Wu and the French."

Wu Shaoting showed a sneer and said calmly: "I thought it was something. It turns out that the Lord Jazz was just trying to do this. I wondered if you want to clarify what relationship do you want to clarify?"

Andre said a little uncomfortable: "General Wu, you should know the importance of our German Empire for the cooperation of the Guangdong military government, and you are also fully aware of the current situation in Europe. Even if you don't know, I told you in detail at your engagement ceremony not long ago. But now, General Wu, you are trading with the French on your back. You must know that the weapons they have received are likely to be used in Europe. At that time, the warriors of our German Empire will be bleeding."

Seeing Andre's tone becoming more and more intense, Wu Shaoting really didn't know whether to cry or laugh. He took a deep breath and said in a very serious tone: "Sir Andre, I think you have completely mistaken something. I have never directly talked to the French about arms sales. I can guarantee you this with my personality. Not long ago, I did sell more than a dozen light machine guns, but the buyer was just a landlord in Vietnam. As for the French you mentioned, it should refer to the military adviser of this Vietnamese landlord. As a person who operates arms, is it not that anyone who buys me and doesn't sell it?"

Andre knew that if he spoke in this direction, he would not be able to explain it clearly even until dawn tomorrow.

"General Wu, you are a wise man, why do you have to say such ignorant words? Vietnam is the territory of the French. Is there any difference between arms in the hands of Vietnamese and French? Of course, from the perspective of business, I really don't have any power to restrain General Wu, but from the identity of a long-term partner, General Wu, do you have to consider our position?" Andrei became more and more excited as he spoke. His carefully dressed beard was blowing up.

"According to what Lord Jazz said, then my business will be impossible." Wu Shaoting said coldly.

"That may not be. The French are all hypocritical bastards. General Wu is afraid that he will not make much money when doing business with them. Besides, does the French still cause less trouble to General Wu now? Aren't they making noise about the Cathedral of the Stone Room? Since they don't give General Wu face, why should General Wu give them face?" Andre said seriously.

"From the tone of your Lord, it seems that your country attaches great importance to this batch of arms." Wu Shaoting changed his tone and said deliberately.

"Haha," Sir Andrey smiled and didn't smile. He coughed, as if he was going to be overly emotional. "As a partner of all-round cooperation, General Wu should first sell such a new weapon to our German Empire. How could he get first-hand information for those Vietnamese? In your Chinese language, this is a waste of resources."

"I understand what Your Excellency Jazz means. I still say the same thing. Since there is a business, there is no reason to not do it. Your Excellency Jazz has a very shallow relationship with me, so of course I should have Huiyu. But I have not been interested in dealing with these trivial matters recently. I will talk about all the troubles after a while." Wu Shaoting said responding. Although he knew that light machine guns were a big deal, it was not the time to do business.

Andrei's eyes turned around. He always thought that Wu Shaoting would act immediately when he saw the interests, but he didn't expect that he miscalculated this time. Of course, he knew that what Wu Shaoting had to face now was really troublesome, but maybe he had the opportunity to take advantage of it. After thinking for a while, he then said: "General Wu, as your friend, you should help when you face the current situation. I think if I could help General Wu to settle some trouble, would General Wu make necessary returns in some business?"

Hearing this, Wu Shaoting couldn't help but smile and asked, "This is to see what problems can Sir Andre help me solve?"

Andrei said calmly: "As far as General Wu is concerned, I am naturally powerless in the big picture, but I can do my best in two things."

Wu Shaoting said: "I hope to hear the details!"

Andre immediately said: "The French are now pursuing the responsibility of the Stone Room Sacred Heart Cathedral. I think I can help General Wu solve this problem. I recently heard that the murderer of the bombing was Japanese, and the French may not believe this rumor, and General Wu, you have no evidence now. However, I can come forward in person and stand on General Wu's side to confirm the rumor."

Although Andre did not want to be involved in the dispute with the French, this matter was an exception. After all, he only made some remarks and commented on the bombing on his own behalf. More importantly, once the French and the Japanese quarrel, it would be very beneficial to Germany. Even if they could not quarrel, at least they could indirectly reduce the threat to the Guangdong military government by the French.

Wu Shaoting raised his eyebrows and said, "This has really helped me a lot."

Andre continued: "In addition, regarding the two assassinations of General Wu, I believe General Wu will definitely fight back. No matter who General Wu points his finger at, I will do my best to stand on General Wu's side and provide support and support."

Wu Shaoting nodded slowly. Although the two helps Andre cannot be described as grateful, they are indeed helpful to the idea. He sighed: "I am very grateful to the Lord Jazz for your help. In return, I can promise Mr. Jazz that the new weapons developed and produced by our Guangdong Arsenal will be sold to Germany at the best price as soon as possible. In addition, I also promise not to provide arms goods to the German enemies."

Andrei smiled and said haha: "I'll wait for General Wu's words."

Although Wu Shaoting was very happy when talking to Andre, Andre seemed unsatisfactory in fulfilling his promise. After all, he had to give up the profits to Wu Shaoting first when he promised to help, and then he could slowly make money back. This was not the usual style of doing things as a great power. However, no matter what, Andre still did what he agreed to.

Wu Shaoting insisted on waiting for his recovery to handle everything before taking care of everything before. Therefore, the outside world has not received any official news about the Japanese intervening in the matter for the time being. It was just some rumors released before. However, after Andrei talked with the French consul, he promoted it on several social occasions. In just a few days, the entire Guangdong Province began to believe that the murderer of the explosion was the Japanese, and there was no need for any evidence or official announcement.

In terms of the agreement signed with the British, the French and the Japanese were also linked to the Japanese, but France and Japan had no direct exchanges of interests. On the contrary, they hated the Japanese's policies in the Southeast Asian region, which had more or less influence on the Indochina Federation. Originally, France was unwilling to drive the Cathedral of the Silk Room to the Japanese, after all, the former was much easier to bully than China. But now the situation has reversed, and for a while, public opinion and the Germans' agitation have put the Japanese in a very cramped situation.

The number of telegrams between consulates in various countries has increased rapidly every day. The British believed that when Europe was so severe, the agreement should not be divided due to the destruction of a church; the Japanese kept announcing that it had nothing to do with the explosion of the Sacred Heart Cathedral in the Stone Room in Guangzhou; Russia's power has not yet radiated to China's southern Xinjiang, so there is no profit in this matter, so they simply think about the overall situation and act as a peacemaker from the perspective of the British.

After some entanglement, the French were also upset and simply left it alone. Of course, they put forward the most basic and bottom-line requirements to the Guangdong military government. The Guangdong military government must bear the restoration of the cathedral, the medical expenses and burial expenses of the clergy. After hearing this result, Wu Shaoting no longer wanted to be upset about this matter. He had more important plans to implement, so he asked the Ministry of Finance to pay 50,000 yuan in cash.

Fifty thousand yuan is naturally not an ideal number for the French, and it is not even enough to buy a suitable organ again. But after that, no matter whether the French consul sent someone to ask for money or even went to find Wu Shaoting in person, the result was the same. Wu Shaoting just didn't give a penny more. In the end, the trouble broke up, and the French had no choice but to record the accounts in their hearts first and then calculate them later.

After the press conference of the Beiyang government and the news circulated in Guangzhou, the original marriage theory public opinion gradually became clear. The real murderer behind the assassination of Wu Shaoting was the revolutionary party of Sun Yat-sen in Japan. This conclusion shocked many people. Just as Wu Shaoting was surprised at the beginning, everyone knew that the Guangdong military government had a close relationship with Sun Yat-sen. If the Second Revolution had not been persisted to the end of the Guangdong army, how could there have been such a drastic impact effect today?
