Chapter 1512 Concession
After taking a few glances, Ma Cheng was excited and smiled and said, "The northern border is desolate all year round, and it is the most difficult to stop, but you are sad about the scene."
When I looked at the beautiful woman in front of me, I couldn't help but praise, "My wife is the time when flowers bloom and gorgeous. Why bother me? If you have a lot of charm, you are not bad."
Wang Ying was so ashamed that she lowered her head in embarrassment. The bonfire made her white and tender neck look more and more moving.
At the same time, Paris.
If we talk about the mystery of this world, the style of luxury, China is far behind compared to Westerners, and we feel far inferior to those luxury brands. Let’s talk about which of those luxury brands is China.
Are we born? We have learned the luxury of our Chinese people from foreigners?
In our country of Chinese etiquette, the upper class still pays attention to shame. Just say that the unruly Ming scholars only dare to be introverted and not be slutty. For example, when you look at a beautiful woman, you are called watching flowers, and you write a banned book and a bottle of plum blossoms.
I dare not leave my real name, but only I dare to leave a flower name that will make future generations imagine infinitely. It is also clear at a glance who is civilized and who is barbaric. If anyone wants to say that Westerners are civilized people, that is, it is just eight ways.
Our Chinese Empire talked about etiquette a few years ago. If you insist that Chinese people are barbaric, isn’t that unconscience? If you say that materialism is rampant in later generations, everyone has only money in their eyes, that is also learned from foreigners, and buying luxury goods is not
Do you have to go abroad, such as Paris?
Paris City experienced a brief calm of two years, but the political situation was turbulent, especially the small-scale warlord melee in southern France. Although the Bourbon nobles died and injured a lot, many old and young people still rely on the Ming Dynasty.
The support of the army turned into a key member of the new government. As for summoning old subordinates in various places, there were even more situations for the uprising of the army.
Warlord separatist, and this unhealthy trend quickly spread from France to the surrounding area. This was naturally something Gao Yi was intentionally committed by the consulate. Who is Gao Yi? He claims to be the descendant of the Zongheng family and a senior spy carefully trained by the Kaiyuan Military Intelligence Department.
The leader, who was sent to Europe to engage in destruction.
Masked with Persian velvet couch and solid ebony desk, hardwood carved short bookshelf, gorgeously bound books, the whole furnishings are solemn and coordinated, two silver-gray tapestries of faded French famous Coberin
Living on four walls, the shepherds and trees on the tapestries were vivid. In the daytime, I saw the exotic scenery everywhere in the foreign buildings.
Gao Yi sat behind the desk, fiddling with the antique in his hand. On the desk in front of him, there was a green jade hairpin. The night pearl on the hairpin head was full of brilliance, extremely gorgeous, and a golden pocket watch, with diamond chains shining brightly.
There were a few small boxes, with pearls and treasures inside. Next to the small box, there was a thick stack of dragons. Gao Yi had just counted it, and it was about 10,000 yuan.
All these things were sent by Henry. Gao Yi chuckled while playing with the golden pocket watch. It seemed that Henry had invested a lot of money and had spent a lot of effort. Just say that these gadgets on the table were local treasures and imported goods.
All are all, no matter how you want to be liked.
I heard that during the Kaicheng period, in order to send the film to Gao Yi, the consul of the Ming Dynasty, it cost several thousand yuan. In order to obtain a commission from the Ming Empire, or to purchase new Ming-made arms, all kinds of people
Even if the princes lose all their money, they will make this adult happy.
Even if Gao Yi has huge imperial resources in his hands, this ten thousand yuan of dragon yuan is really a lot.
The various resources and wealth he holds in his hands are naturally extremely scary behemoths. His annual salary is as huge as 50,000 yuan. As for the various inputs he earns on weekdays, it is even more of an astronomical figure. But he is
There are tens of thousands of acres of land in China and Europe, and the rent collected by the land that is leased is always tens of thousands of yuan per year. In addition, the tribute from warlords and powerful people from all over the country is really huge and scary.
Although the Consul General spent money like flowing water, he received a huge sum of 10,000 yuan out of thin air, but he was absolutely indifferent to the indifference of no desires and demands, and was quite happy for a while.
"Sir, there is a movie."
After knocking on the door, a thin figure flashed in and took a business card with a gold-topped side in his hand.
Gao Yi took it and glanced, "He Shengxing, Fang Shixian."
This shock was extraordinary, and he hurriedly said, "Please, I will talk to you in the flower hall."
Gao Yi was searching for memories of Fang Shixian in his mind, but he really couldn't remember such a person. But then again, he didn't dare to offend him with the popular surname Fang. This is a big deal. Now he is relying on opioid trade.
There are countless Ming Shangs who made a fortune in Europe. The most famous one is that it is popular. It has made an amazing fortune in Europe, but it is also
However, Heshengxing is just the industry of the Fang family. It is famous and has made more ruthless opioid dealers than him. There are actually many merchants in various ways.
The flower hall is elegant and clean. The French carpet under your feet is soft and more than two inches thick. Oil paintings are hung on all four walls, which are in the style of Western style. Fang Zhangguin is elegant and has short beards. When speaking, he likes to knock ivory on the table.
The carved fan. At this moment, Paris, the concession and the tactful world are completely different from the pattern of Shanghai in the Republic of China.
Versailles, where the consular officer of the Ming Empire was located, was basically an independent kingdom. Although the consular officers reported that their country's merchants strictly adhered to neutrality, there were actually trade channels between the concessions and warlords from all over the country. For Europe, where the military-industrial system had completely collapsed.
The arms supply of warlords and nobles was maintained by the Ming merchants' channels. Of course, they had to buy food, gunpowder and other materials with money several times higher than the market price.
Merchants are seeking profits, and the Ming merchants do business with warlords, and they also do business with the rebels, but they make a lot of money in it. Now, they have come to Gao Yi, the Consul General with the Shengxing Fang family, which is obviously a pen.
A big business.
Fang Shixian knocked on the fan, smiled and said, "Next time, I will bring three thousand muskets and some gunpowder, so please let me go for a convenience."
Gao Yi was really shocked. Three thousand muskets were not a small number. Would it be great if it flowed into the hands of the rebels?
He had to say cautiously: "This matter is very important, and I'm afraid the Governor will have to approve the note... I dare to ask if the three thousand muskets of Manager Fang are commercially used or privately sold?"
Fang Shixian was stunned and then laughed: "It's my own business, and adults really like to joke."
Gao Yi thought about it and started chatting with this shopkeeper Fang. There was a long time when his confidant subordinates reported the case to the Military and Fair.
"Shopkeeper Fang, please tea."
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say."
Gao Yi dragged this shopkeeper and Shengxing, waiting for his subordinates to give back. Such a person with unknown origin would speak up for a big business of three thousand muskets, so he naturally had to play his bottom. What's surprising is this
The shopkeeper Weifang knew that the situation was not good, but he was not in a hurry. He even had a big golden sword and really drank tea. The guards outside really lived up to expectations and soon rushed in with the soldiers of the Junxiansi. More than a dozen
