When Gao Shaoyi talked about compensation just now, Ichiro Nobe had a look of disdain on his face, but now when Gao Shaoyi talks about compensation, this guy can't keep silent, but how should he talk about this matter?
He also knew that Gao Shaoyi was a big talker. If he had deceived others in the past, he would have agreed, but now His Highness the Prince is out in the sea. If he agreed to Gao Shaoyi's large compensation, I am afraid that he would be in the presence of His Highness the Prince.
It’s not easy to explain either.
"My Lord Governor, there are some things that I can't decide now..."
"Then just pick up the things you can decide. Didn't you just compensate Mr. George with five million silver coins? I don't want much, just the same price as Mr. George."
Gao Shaoyi's words made Ichiro Nobe spit out all the tea in his mouth. Can you be like others here?
Isn't it just blocking the waterway for a while? Even if you transport gold and silver here every day, you can't ask me for compensation of five million silver coins in a few hours, right?
What's more, Mr. George is the representative of the Windsor Empire. After all, they are the leader of the world and now have a decisive position in the world. If they are compensated with five million silver coins, His Highness the Prince will not say anything about this matter.
But if I pay you the same compensation of five million silver coins, Ichiro Nobe is afraid that Prince Kitamiya Shiro will blame him.
"Mr. Nobe is not very happy?"
Gao Shaoyi said expressionlessly.
Not to mention that Nobe Ichiro was not very happy, even George next to him felt that Gao Shaoyi's request was too much. We have sunk a ship here, so five million silver coins is reasonable. What's the matter with you?
No children.
Although the waterway is blocked, because all the people entering and exiting are small boats, the actual losses are basically minimal. You also want five million silver coins like us. You are really very evil!
"Master Hou, do you think we should discuss this matter again?"
Nobe Ichiro said in a very embarrassed tone, he was absolutely sure that if he agreed to this compensation, Prince Kitamiya Shiro would probably throw him into the water.
"I don't have a problem. If you can't make the decision, just go back and ask for instructions. Anyway, if we don't discuss it clearly in one day, your fleet won't be able to enter the port in one day. I don't know how many supplies you brought, but if you can persist at sea
If so, then you just happen to be here for a sea training, and there are also discussions about the wedding. We would like to postpone it indefinitely. What the people in your country think is up to you."
Gao Shaoyi acted as if the matter had nothing to do with him. George next to him was amused. Gao Shaoyi was not only a military genius, but also a figure in diplomatic negotiations. He made full use of his current advantages.
, it seems that Ichiro Sadanobe was taken advantage of.
Of course, George would not meddle in other people's business. After all, he and the little prince of Dongdi Kingdom had a sworn feud, and he wished that Dongdi Kingdom would bleed more. The only regret he felt was that he paid less.
Nobe Ichiro's face became increasingly ugly.
This matter is similar to what Gao Shaoyi said, because the distance between Dongdi Kingdom and Daqian Kingdom is not very far, so there are not many things on the ship, and it can only last for two or three days at most.
Of course, this is not the most important. The most important thing is what Gao Shaoyi said.
The entire Dongdi Kingdom hopes that the princess of the Daqian Empire will marry them in order to improve the self-esteem of the entire nation.
Even if something like that happened before, they still hope that the wedding can be held as soon as possible.
This time, Prince Beigong Bai was sent as the negotiator, so many people are very confident. If it is really delayed indefinitely, the impact on the people's confidence will be immeasurable, and at the same time, it will affect the prestige of His Highness the Prince...
Nobe Ichiro said nothing and ran to the telegraph machine nearby to send the report.
I don’t know how many telegrams were sent back and forth. Prince Beigong Bai finally relented. When the heavy artillery regiment on the shore fired, this guy also saw it on the warship. Although it did not cause much damage to their warship, it was Dongdi's concession in Haicheng is indeed a big threat.
Others don't know the capabilities of this lease. As the top executive of Dongdi Kingdom, Prince Beigong Bai certainly knows how much profit this concession can generate every year, which is a full 70 million silver coins. If it is destroyed by bombing, don't worry about it. How will you take revenge in the future? First of all, the income of 70 million silver coins this year is gone. Compared with this money, 5 million silver coins are nothing.
A small negotiation was over. Gao Shaoyi and George left here very happily. The welcome ceremony originally prepared did not need to be held. Prince Beigong Bai was also afraid of causing trouble, so he also ordered the fleet to enter the port in a low-key manner.
When Ichiro Nobe was about to greet him, Gao Shaoyi's adjutant called him over again.
"Master Hou, is there anything else?"
Being extorted five million silver coins would make anyone feel uncomfortable, so Ichiro Nobe even lost his courtesy.
"I'm kindly reminding you that if the soldiers on your ship disembark, I ask you to make it clear to them that they must not cause trouble on my territory. If anyone causes a dispute, then don't blame me. Forget about being friends, there are quite a few foreigners in the prison these days. If your people get in, I will never show mercy."
After Gao Shaoyi finished speaking, he closed the car door. This was a car shipped from the Junker Empire. All the money was obtained from foreigners.
"you…"
I originally thought that Ichiro Nobe would be proud when his country's fleet arrived, but now it seems that is far from the case. The fleet can already be seen with the naked eye. But for some reason, Ichiro Nobe is even more manipulated by this guy. dead.
We have a fleet coming, and they have a heavy artillery regiment.
In the final analysis, it’s still a matter of words, let’s see who dares to risk his life...
Nobe Ichiro suddenly remembered a saying from the Dakan Empire, that is, those who are barefoot are not afraid of wearing shoes.
The Daqian Empire had no good results in the past. It was threatened by foreigners every day. Now we finally have something that can threaten you. Let’s just do it. We have already been prepared in our hearts. Haicheng has been threatened anyway. Dozens of times.
But we don’t know whether you foreigners are mentally prepared for this. In short, judging from the results of the threats just now, the people of Dongdi are not ready for the destruction of the concession. Even the belligerent Beigong Bai Even the prince dare not make such a decision...?? This chapter has been completed!
