Chapter 364 Fancy Promotion

Judging from what Enrique had heard through various channels before, this group of Haihan people entrenched in Sanya arrived here by boat from the sea more than a year ago, and their hometown is said to be in the Eastern Ocean.

A mysterious continent on the other side. These Haihan people have not had direct contact with Western countries since they came to Sanya, because he has heard many maritime merchants mention it more than once. If the Haihan people can open up connections with the Dutch and Spanish

It would be great to have more trade channels. Moreover, Enrique himself was often surrounded by people in Port Victory because of his appearance. He asked some people, and everyone said that they had never seen a foreigner like him in the local area before.

If the Haihan people did not maintain long-term contact with the forces of Western countries, then how did they come up with the idea of ​​selling arms to Western countries? You must know that in this era, the artillery and guns produced in Europe are symbols of advanced weapons, even in the Eastern world

The Ming Empire, the overlord of the Ming Dynasty, also had to find ways to spend money to buy arms from the Portuguese at high prices. If someone in the East tried to make artillery and sell it to European countries, this is simply an unreasonable thing, just as European countries would not think of it.

It also manufactures silk fabrics and porcelain and sells them to the East.

At this time, Enrique also put down his chopsticks. While thinking about it in his mind, he continued to listen to the conversation on the other side of the screen with his ears raised.

Then Lao Huang then asked: "I have never seen a Western Fan here before. How did the leaders know that they can sell arms to Western countries? Oh, I know, it must be the Fan who recently lived in Victory Port.

Man, he is here to buy arms!"

Enrique was dumbfounded in his heart, but he didn't dare to speak out, so he could only continue to eavesdrop.

Xiaobai answered: "That's not true. I heard from the chiefs that this Fan came to us to ask for peace because the militia group beat the crap out of their people in Annan. As for selling arms, the chiefs should

Haven’t talked to him yet.”

"Then the chiefs are so sure that the Westerners will definitely buy it?" Old Huang sounded a little disapproving: "During this period, we have worked overtime to cast a lot of cannons. I am afraid that the Annamites and the Ming army will not be able to digest them all.

By then, won’t they be piled up in the factory and rust?”

"Who are the leaders? They are gods who know five hundred years before and five hundred years afterward, and who know astronomy and geography!" Xiaobai's tone was full of sincere respect and trust: "The leaders said

If you know how to buy it, then you will definitely buy it. Have you heard about the chiefs giving advice on the 'Fu Ruifeng' in Guangzhou?"

Lao Huang responded: "I have heard some rumors about this, especially among the recent immigrants from Guangzhou. It is said that Mr. Tao, Mr. Shi, and Mr. Ning once gave money to the boss of 'Fu Ruifeng'

Li Jifeng pointed out the general trend of the world, and then 'Fu Ruifeng' could use the momentum to expand its business."

"It's more than that!" Xiaobai added: "I heard that the Li family had a falling out with the former Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi, and it was because of the guidance of the chiefs. As a result, within a few months, the former Governor was replaced by the current Lord Wang.

The Li family followed the instructions of the chiefs and started cooking at Master Wang’s place early, so after Master Wang took office, he also took great care of the Li family!”

In fact, Enrique had also heard the folk rumors mentioned at the table next door. When he went to Guangzhou to find the Haihan people, it was the Li family who led the way, and Enrique was also very interested at that time.

He asked Li Jifeng about the true details of these rumors. Although Li Jifeng did not explain it in detail, he also admitted that some key decisions had been guided by the Haihan people and benefited from it. Enrique then thought of the later Lijiazhuang War.

If he hadn't already gained Li Jifeng's full trust, he probably wouldn't have let the Haihan militia stationed in his hometown to help him defend against foreign enemies, right?

At that time, although Enrique thought what Li Jifeng said sounded a bit magical, he didn't take it too seriously. After all, there were too many things in this mysterious eastern country that he could not explain. Maybe the Haihan people really had some knowledge of the future.

The magic is not certain. But when he heard the conversation between people at the other table, Enrique couldn't help but recall the scene at that time.

When he listened attentively again, the two people next door had already changed the topic and started talking about some irrelevant trivial matters in life. Enrique listened for a while and found that there was no valuable information, so he took back his thoughts.

The two people next door didn't eat for too long, and soon they paid and left. Enrique didn't have the appetite to continue eating, so he asked the waiter to come over to pay and pack up the untouched food and wine, and he would work as a waiter at the guest house that night.

It's not bad to have a late night snack. After Enrique left the "Ruifeng Building" and left in a hurry with his servants, Lao Huang and Xiao Bai, who should have left here long ago, showed up at the "Ruifeng Building" again.

In a private room on the third floor. Sitting in this private room were several big bosses from the executive committee. Tao Donglai, Yan Chujie, Ning Qi, and Schneider were all present.

"You two have done a good job. When the work is completed, I will take credit for you." Schneider praised the two people who had their heads lowered.

The two men immediately lowered their heads: "It is an honor for me to serve the Executive Committee!"

"But you also remember, don't mention anything when you return to the unit, and don't reveal a single word of what you have done or said. Got it?" Yan Chujie jumped out to play the role of the white face at the right time.

"Yes, yes, I know!" The two of them responded hurriedly.

"Okay, you can go down first. This is a small action allowance, and there will be rewards later." Schneider handed over the two envelopes, and the two of them followed them respectfully, without even daring to raise their heads, and spoke very quickly

He opened the door and left.

After the militiamen outside the door closed the door again, Tao Donglai said: "It seems that the first step went smoothly, but I don't know if Enrique will fall into this trap."

Of course, the encounter between Enrique Huang and Xiao Bai in the "Ruifeng Building" was not a lucky encounter, but a play carefully planned by the executive committee. Of course, Lao Huang was not a cannon casting technician, and Xiao Bai was not a "cannon casting technician."

Employees of "Haihan Military Industry", they are just two naturalized citizens who have been in the theater troupe. These two people are currently working in the Propaganda Department, and they were completely captured and participated in this planning, and the conversation between them

The content is basically performed according to the written script.

In order to wait for such a suitable opportunity, the two extras had been waiting in the "Ruifeng Building" for two full days before they finally waited for Enrique to show up. When Enrique went upstairs, someone else came to win.

Bao notified the Executive Committee, so several Executive Committee members who happened to be free immediately rushed over to work on site. In order to hear the live broadcast clearly, the Executive Committee also brought a microphone to record almost every word.

I listened to the entire conversation between the two people and made sure that the information prepared in advance was not missing too much.

"Enrique didn't even finish his meal, so he packed up and left in a hurry. I think he was probably a little anxious. If my prediction is good, he will go to the Military Commission to find you within today." Ning Qi said to Yan Chujie.

He winked and said, "Business is coming!"

"Then I have to catch him again." Yan Chujie said with a smile: "If it is too easy to get, the plot will not seem realistic enough."

After Enrique returned to his room at the Guest House, he sat down and reviewed the situation he knew and determined a few things. First, the Haihan people most likely mastered some casting techniques that were more advanced than those of European countries.

Artillery technology gave them the confidence to sell the weapons they made to Europe. Secondly, the Haihan people may have relied on some mysterious methods to understand the lack of weapons caused by the current war in Europe, thus giving birth to the idea of ​​​​carrying arms trade with European countries.

Thoughts. Third, the Haihan people don’t seem to have a confirmed arms trading partner yet.

Enrique is not sure whether the technological level of Haihan's arms manufacturing has really surpassed that of European countries. Further evidence is needed to confirm it. And the mysterious method of Haihan people to predict the future situation seems to have been used more than once.

, and the accuracy seems to be very high, but this also lacks personal verification. After all, the information he knows comes from hearsay from others. As for the third point, Enrique identified the potential competition almost instantly

The two are the Spanish and the Dutch. These are also the two biggest competitors of the Portuguese in the Far East. As for the French and the British, they are currently fighting on the European battlefield and have no regard for the Far East.

Competition for interests.

After thinking clearly about the cause and effect, Enrique felt that he could no longer sit back and wait, and had to do something to clarify the situation. If the Haihan people had no such actual plan, then naturally there would be nothing to say, but if the rumors he heard were

Really, if the Haihan people really plan to sell weapons to European countries, they cannot let their competitors take this piece of meat away from them.

So Enrique, who was still hot from sitting, hurried to Fort Victory with his servants, hoping to talk to Yan Chujie of the Military Commission about visiting the live ammunition shooting again. However, his luck seemed to be a little worse. The guard at the door told him,

Commander Yan is not working at the Military Commission today, but is teaching at the military academy. At the same time, he has no time to meet with outsiders.

Undaunted, Enrique turned to the office of "Haihan Ordnance Industry", but unfortunately he could not find the person in charge here either - the Baikes people were in Tiandu Industrial Zone and would not come back today.

Enrique reluctantly went to the office of the executive committee again, but he also came to nothing here - all the executive committee members had gone out to inspect grassroots work, and if you have anything to do, please be early tomorrow.

Originally, Enrique thought that the busy working style of the Haihan people was quite impressive, but now he wanted to pick out a Haihan man at random and ask him why he was working so hard. He didn't lack anything in terms of status, status, and money.

Now, can’t we just stay in the office and enjoy the ice-cold coconut juice?

Angry and angry, things still had to be done. Although he couldn't sleep well that night because of this incident, Enrique came to the Military Commission in high spirits the next morning. This time he was not disappointed again, because he actually killed Tao Dong in one fell swoop.

Come, Bai Kesi and Yan Chujie are all blocked in the office. But for some reason, Enrique always feels that the eyes of these three people are a bit strange when they see him, as if some kind of wild beast has seen its prey.

"Dear three gentlemen, it's great to see you here, so I don't have to visit you one by one." Enrique didn't wait for them to greet him, but he went into the room and sat on the wicker chair. He didn't

I know when will be the next time I can see these prominent figures at the same time. Since I bumped into each other here, there is no reason to miss it easily.

"Mr. Enrique, did something urgent happen when you came to us so early?" Tao Donglai pretended to be confused: "Are you not used to living in the Guest House? Is there anything you are dissatisfied with?"

"No, no, no, the guest house is very good. I'm very satisfied with everything. In fact, what I want to talk to you about has nothing to do with accommodation." Enrique didn't want to go around too much and got to the point quickly: "I

I want to talk to three of you about the arms trade."

"Arms trade?" The three people exchanged glances with each other, and then Bai Kesi took over the conversation: "Mr. Enrique, did you make something wrong? The weapons of our armed militia have always been manufactured by ourselves and have never been released to the outside world.

Intention to purchase.”

Enrique coughed dryly and said: "No, no, you misunderstood me. I don't intend to sell weapons to you... In fact, I want to know if you have sold weapons to us... no, to Western countries.

Intend?"

Here comes the show! The three old youtiaos all had the same thought in their minds.

"Regarding the arrangements for selling weapons to external parties, we have always adopted a very cautious attitude. The final decision must be made after strict argumentation and voting." Tao Donglai immediately began to use the Mizong Quan he is good at:

"So regarding this matter, my answer is... I have no comment for the time being."

Although Enrique was proficient in Chinese, he still had to hear the last word before he slowly understood that Tao Dong had said a lot but actually revealed nothing. He thought about it and made the request from another angle:

"Let's put aside the arms trade first. Can I have a chance to have a deeper understanding of the performance of Haihan weapons?"

"Please give me a reason." Tao Donglai responded calmly.

"If the weapons you make are really superior to Western countries in performance, then I think selling them to Western countries will be a good business, and there will be good benefits for you and us. Please believe me

, the Portuguese Chamber of Commerce in the East India region can place quite large orders, which are incomparable to the arms orders you currently sell to Annan and Daming... Of course, this must first prove that the performance of your weapons is good enough." Well.

Rick made no secret of his thoughts. He knew that the most effective way to deal with these Haihan people was to let them understand the benefits they could gain - yes, in Enrique's view, this was a group of extremely realistic and realistic people.

Philistine businessmen! If driven by enough profit, they will not even hesitate to sell weapons to their enemies!

After these words came out, Haihan's three bosses were silent for a while, and then whispered to each other in very low voices. Although Enrique was a little uneasy, he still tried his best to maintain a calm posture and waited.

The other party makes a decision.

After a while, the three of them stopped talking. Tao Donglai nodded and said, "I have to admit that what you said makes some sense. In fact, we have learned about the ongoing multi-national conflict on Europa through some special methods.

War, so we have actually considered exporting weapons to Western countries. But you also know that as a responsible weapons manufacturer, we also have many concerns..."

Enrique couldn't hear much of Tao Donglai's nonsense, because his attention was attracted by the first half of what Tao Donglai said. What does it mean to "learn about the people on the continent of Europa through special methods?"

"The situation of the war"? Enrique would not think that this was the Haihan people making a hasty decision to sell weapons after hearing a few words from some Western businessmen. These guys all take it one step at a time and are smarter than ghosts in business. They will never
To be continued...
