Chapter 676

Roque never thought of himself as a good person. A good person would suffer at any time. Roque would rather be a villain who took advantage of it than a good person who suffered a disadvantage.

Therefore, Nyasaland has only a cold system, and there has never been any legal principles or human feelings.

In Nyasaland, as long as you abide by the law, keep yourself safe, and work hard, you can be protected by the law and get the rewards you deserve.

On the contrary, if you deliberately find loopholes in the law to benefit yourself, you will probably not be able to survive in Nyasaland.

In Nyasaland, honesty is the code of conduct that everyone must pay attention to. If a businessman is short of money, if a farmer sells agricultural products as shoddy, if an official corrupts the law, or even if a student cheats in an exam, they will all be punished by the law. Severe punishment.

Making a mistake in Nyasaland is not terrible. As long as it is an unintentional mistake, most of it can be forgiven, but if it is deliberate, even if the victim does not trouble you, the police and judge will trouble you, and the price may be beyond imagination. , It is too late for people to regret.

It's the same in East India, Adan Company doesn't need to be so affectionate. For those who don't cooperate, Adan Company doesn't have time to play that kind of seven captures. If those who don't cooperate are important, then find someone to replace them. Status doesn't matter--

For a long time to come, it is estimated that there will be a shortage of construction workers in East India.

Of course, the next day, when Chinese farmers around Medan gathered in Medan Port, Andy spoke very politely.

"Adan Company is a large multinational company, the size of which you can't imagine. We came to Medan not on a whim, but because our immigrant boat was treated unfairly at the port of Medan. We believe that this unfair Fairness, you can feel it in your daily life, now is the time to change, of course it may be dangerous, but it is also an opportunity, if you are interested, you can come to me at any time, opportunities are only reserved for those who are prepared People." Andy's words were very simple, and he left after finishing speaking, and didn't mean to keep people for dinner.

Probably because they are not used to Andy's way of doing things, they feel uneasy, and even the farmers who are about to lose money and eliminate disasters suddenly look at each other, wondering what kind of medicine is sold in Andy's gourd.

Not only the farmers came, but also several businessmen from Medan.

"What does your lord mean?" a businessman ventured to ask Benson Taugherty.

"Don't understand?" Benson Taoherty said playfully.

A group of farmers and businessmen shook their heads in unison. In fact, they may not be ignorant, or they may be pretending to be confused. After all, the Dutch colonial authorities gave them a deep impression.

"You may not have heard of Adan Company. Let me introduce it. This is a multinational company from southern Africa. It is very powerful. Before the Port of Medan seized the migrant ship Ark in Southern Africa, it offended the southern African people. Lord Nyasaran, that’s why the Umbrella Corporation launched an attack on Medan Port, you may not know that Lord Nyasaran is Chinese like you, so your chance has come.” Benson Tauhertinai He explained in a tempered manner that Benson Tauherty certainly did not have such patience before.

The farmers still didn't speak, and they didn't even make eye contact with each other at this moment. Maybe some people did have ideas, but no one would take the initiative to stand up at this time.

"According to your standards, Mr. Andy may be a bit rude just now, but I want to remind you that Mr. Andy gave you the opportunity because you are also Chinese. If you can't meet Mr. Andy's expectations, then Mr. Andy Mr. Di will find other people to cooperate in the future, and at that time, don't blame Mr. Andy for not giving you a chance." Benson Tauherty didn't care about the small thoughts of the farmers, it's normal to be cautious, Dong The Chinese in India have always been very cautious, but the Chinese in East India also do not lack the spirit of adventure.

Unlike those Chinese who passively immigrated to southern Africa, most of the Chinese in East India are active immigrants. After getting rid of all kinds of desperation and leaving their homes, it takes courage to leave the familiar environment and live in a strange country.

So don't think that no one is making a sound at the moment, someone will definitely go to Andy later, everyone understands the truth of seeking wealth and insurance, maybe when you are still hesitating, someone has already stepped in first.

"What is Mr. Andy's expectation?" Finally someone couldn't bear it.

"Mr. Andy needs someone to take the initiative to form troops, maintain local law and order, and collect taxes. I am now the chief executive of Medan Port, and Medan needs another one." Benson Tauherty also needs more people Pull on the chariot of Adan Company, otherwise if Adan Company fails, Benson Tauherty will also be unlucky.

"Building troops—isn't that going to fight the Dutch—"

"It's hard—how can the Dutch give up—"

"Why don't you donate some sterling to get rid of the disaster--"

There was a lot of discussion in the newly built city hall, and everyone whispered to each other, all with distressed faces and sympathy.

"Confused, isn't it enough for us Chinese to suffer from the Dutch? Instead of being ruled by the Dutch, I would rather be loyal to Lord Nyasaland. At worst, I will go bankrupt and start all over again. This is all, everyone, please do your own thing, and leave—— A Chinese who hadn't spoken all the time got up and clasped his fists, then turned and left, leaving a look of surprise, astonishment, mockery, and resentment in his eyes.

Hit the bird with a gun?

The first rafters rot first?

Will the wood show be destroyed by the forest wind?

It's all the old calendar, and it's popular now that you can't catch up with it, and you can't even eat hot food.

"What's his name?" Benson Tauherty asked with great interest.

"This man's name is Li Wan. He just came to Medan a few years ago. He set up a store by dumping goods, but the business was not very good. Even if he went bankrupt, he didn't have much money—" someone snorted.

Some people were thoughtful, so someone immediately took the initiative to say goodbye to Benson Taugherty.

When Li Wan came to Andy's office, Andy was having afternoon tea with Scott Stella.

Scott Stella came to Medan this time because of the dispute between the Adam Company and the East India.

"It's okay to return Medan to the Dutch, but there must be an explanation for the loss of the Nyasaland Immigration Bureau, the expenses of the Umbrella Company's mercenaries, and the expenses of the Adan Company during this period—" Andy If the door is not blocked, it will take time for Medan Port.

"Of course, this is a reasonable request—" Scott Stella smiled, at least this is a good start.

But soon Scott Stella stopped laughing.

"1000 million pounds? Are you crazy or am I crazy?" Scott Stella was surprised. He didn't expect Andy's appetite to be so big.

"Ten million pounds is not much. The daily cost of 1000 mercenaries is more than [-] pounds. During this period of time, Adan's company has spent more than [-] pounds. There are also those who died innocently before. Their value is even higher. It can’t be measured by money, the Dutch don’t think too much, every day, the price will increase by a part, and it will not be able to pay back until the East India goes bankrupt.” Andy is really not a lion. Just kidding, why do mercenaries go out to conquer every day?

Always earn your salary back.

"It's impossible for the Dutch to accept this price—" Scott Stella smiled wryly. The Dutch are famous all over Europe for their picky tricks. Andy asked for 1000 million pounds, which is equivalent to It directly killed the Dutchman.

"It doesn't matter. We never force others to accept our demands. If the Dutch don't agree to this plan, then it's very simple. We will collect taxes in the Port of Medan. When the cost is recovered, we will return the Port of Medan. For the Dutch." Andy calmed down, it was another bottomless pit.

Strictly speaking, although the Port of Medan is located in the Strait of Malacca, it is not in a traffic artery. Ships traveling to and from the Strait of Malacca are still accustomed to docking at the Lion City instead of Medan. Therefore, the Port of Medan can expect to collect taxes of 1000 million pounds. It is estimated that To receive forever.

The point is that the cost will accumulate over time, so the bill will never be paid off.

"Just Port Medan?" Scott Stella pressed on.

"Mr. Stella, are you representing Batavia or the British Empire?" Andy didn't answer directly.

"Of course it's the British Empire!" Scott Stella said instantly.

"That's it. It's definitely not limited to Medan Port, or even Sumatra. The Strait of Malacca should belong to the British Empire's Malacca, not thieves like the Netherlands. They should honestly go back to Europe to fill in It is more appropriate for the East India to be managed by the British Empire." Andy was showing standard British colonial thinking at this time.

Don't look at Andy's impassioned words about the British Empire, but Scott Stella can't laugh or cry.

Southern Africa is already self-governing, can Adan Company work together with the British Empire?

Even if it takes so much effort to buy oil, even if the Adan company drives the Dutch away, can it still hand over the East India to the British government?

But this must never be said, the political position must be correct at all times, so although Scott Stella despises Andy's behavior, Scott Stella also wants to respect Andy's behavior on the surface. to praise.

"You're right—" Scott Stella's expression was more distorted than eating a whole plate of stinky tofu.

"So our attitude must be firm. If the Dutch don't back down now, we will be tolerant. Otherwise, similar incidents will happen in the future." Andy is satisfied. It seems that the British are not stubborn, such as Scott Mr. de Stella is very reasonable.

"The Dutch guarantee that similar incidents will never happen in the future." Scott Stella finally did not forget his mission.

"There is no guarantee for this kind of guarantee, even if it is a signature, it is useless." Andy sneered, if an apology is useful, why do you need mercenaries?
