I Build an Aircraft Carrier in the Ming Dynasty

In his busy schedule, Hong Chengchou went to Fusang in person and met Qian Sule in Ibusuki.

After he conveyed Wu Changqing's instructions to Qian Sule, he discussed specific plans with Qian Sule.

Then, they summoned Miyazaki Ichiro again.

"Mr. Miyazaki, this is the Minister of Commerce of our Dahua. The minister in charge of the negotiation this time, Mr. Hong Chengchou Hong."

Qian Sule's words made Miyazaki Ichiro feel a little stunned.

Hong Chengchou, although this is the first time he has met, he is already familiar with the name.

Nowadays, the exchanges between Fusang and Dahua are increasingly close, and there are many people in Fusang who are studying Dahua's technology, systems, and high-level figures.

And Hong Chengchou is definitely the core executive of Dahua, and Ichiro Miyazaki is no stranger to it.

He knew that Hong Chengchou's status was unusual and he needed to be dispatched. Obviously, Dahua attached great importance to this negotiation.

You must know that in the previous Kagoshima Treaty, Dahua only let Qian Sule complete the signing.

"I have long admired Mr. Hong's name."

Miyazaki Ichiro touted Hong Chengchou a few words.

After the greeting, everyone started talking about business.

"Five million is too much. This place, for us Dahua, is actually useless. It doesn't matter if you want it or not..."

As soon as he came up, Hong Chengchou actually cried poor, and Miyazaki Ichiro could not wait to take off his clogs and slap Hong Chengchou's mouth.

Dahua's cry of poverty is like the wealthy people of later generations who say they have no money. Everyone knows that he is pretending to be coercive, but it is not easy to expose it.

As for Hong Chengchou's statement that Southern Kyushu is not important to Dahua, this Miyazaki Ichiro is also a punctuation mark.

If it wasn't important, why would an imperial minister be sent over to personally take charge of the negotiations.

Obviously, Dahua takes it seriously.

But why Dahua attaches so much importance to this, this Miyazaki Ichiro is actually not very clear.

He didn't know that Dahua's appetite at the moment would be so great that he wanted to annex their entire Fusang.

In his opinion, Dahua's current purpose of selling arms to Fusang is just to sow discord, and then take advantage of the fisherman.

Can't blame him for having such an idea, because since ancient times, the Central Plains Dynasty has not had any intention of annexing their Fusang.

"Master Hong is joking. With Dahua's wealth, five million is not just taken out casually. The price of any Dahua railway is more than that.

Moreover, the area of ​​Southern Kyushu is so large that there are countless fertile fields and minerals. If it weren't for the fact that my lord is in desperate need of money now, he would definitely not sell it. If Lord Hong doesn't seize the opportunity at this time, we won't sell it if you want to buy it when we get through this hard time. "

Miyazaki Ichiro was very calm on the surface, and those who didn't know the inside story of the Satsuma Domain might have to believe his words.

Unfortunately, Qian Sule and Hong Chengchou both knew that Satsuma was in a very bad situation, very bad, and the economy was on the verge of collapse.

"However, you and I both know that there are a group of mobs there now. If you buy it, it's a hot potato. If you are willing to sell Kagoshima, we will pay immediately without saying a word. There is still turmoil in South Kyushu. , this kind of place is not asking for money, but giving it for free, we all need to consider it.”

Hong Chengchou continued to guide the topic: "So, if you can quell those rebellions first, then our interest will be much greater."

Dahua's plan was to let the people of the Satsuma domain go to the southern Kyushu to suppress it bloody, intensifying the contradiction between the Satsuma domain and the judgment.

If the rebels in Southern Kyushu were forced to ask Dahua for help, Dahua would stand up again at that time, and he would naturally gain the favor of the people of Southern Kyushu.

These words made Miyazaki Ichiro have the urge to take off his shoes again. If they can easily quell those rebellions, why do they need to sell this place?

It was because there was a rebellion there that they wanted to leave this trouble to Dahua, and that's why they wanted to sell it.

"To be honest, our army is really unable to get out now and is unable to suppress the rebellion."

Miyazaki Ichiro said truthfully, anyway, even if he didn't say it, Dahua would definitely know this kind of thing.

There are a lot of Dahua spies active in Fusang now, and both of them know each other quite well.

"You can temporarily stop the war with the Kumamoto domain first, and then suppress the rebellion first. In this regard, we can help a little bit to facilitate the truce between you and the Kumamoto domain."

Qian Sule is not bragging. As the largest arms supplier of Satsuma and Kumamoto, it is very easy for them to interfere in the battle between the two sides.

The party who dares to be disobedient and directly stops selling arms to it can make the other party collapse.

Seeing that Dahua was determined to quell the rebellion first, Miyazaki sighed in his heart.

He knew that this time, he was afraid that he would not be able to pit Dahua.

They decided to sell Southern Kyushu to Dahua, and there were many deep-seated reasons besides getting some money.

One of the reasons is to try to divert the conflict and let Dahua's army fight with those rebels.

If Dahua's army cracked down bloodily, they could stir up the emotions of the people at the bottom, but they would transfer their contradictions to the Fusang rulers to Dahua.

It is best to boycott Dahua's products, and it is best that no one works for Dahua's mines.

Or, keep creating some trouble for Dahua.

If Dahua adopts the Huairou policy, then the rebels in Southern Kyushu will definitely make a fortune and make Dahua a headache.

In short, Shimadzu Hikaru thought it was beautiful, but Dahua was not stupid at all, he was determined

If you are not fooled, you have to ask them to quell the rebellion.

Even Qian Sule proposed to send troops to the front line of Kumamoto to maintain peace and urge them to truce with the people of the Kumamoto domain.

This means, it is too obvious.

Dahua has the ability to quell the rebellion, but they just don't do this kind of thing that offends the people.

"If that's the case, then I'm afraid this deal won't work out."

Miyazaki Ichiro said lightly.

He has to show that he doesn't care, and he can't let Hong Chengchou and the others see through.

Hong Chengchou smiled and didn't care, letting Miyazaki Ichiro leave.

He had studied with Qian Sule beforehand, and felt that Satsuma had no choice and would definitely sell it in the end.

If Shimadzu Mitsuhisa is really so stubborn, or if he doesn't sell his temper, they can use some other means.

For example, increase the arms assistance to the Kumamoto domain and let them turn the tide of the war.

Or, give the rebels a little arms aid and let them continue to expand, even to Kagoshima.

At that time, Shimadzu Mitsuhisa will definitely be forced to soften. Unless, Shimadzu Mitsuhisa suddenly went mad and was ready to die.

According to Qian Sule's understanding of Shimadzu Mitsuhisa, he believed that Shimadzu Mitsuhisa did not have that kind of courage.

With absolute strength, Dahua has the advantage in the game.

Therefore, Hong Chengchou and Qian Sule were not in a hurry at all, just waiting for Miyazaki Ichiro to come to the door again.
