Anti-Qing: I'm actually an honest person

Chapter 80 Kangxi is really... Bah
In fact, as early as two days before Wei Chunhua finally arrived late, the Jiangsu business group had already arrived, especially led by Yangzhou businessmen and Suzhou businessmen.

Not to mention that Wei Xiaobao and Wei Chunhua's mother and son recognized each other, and the mother and son cried in each other's arms. These Jiangsu businessmen, especially those from Yangzhou who came along with them, inevitably had some different thoughts.

Wei Dutong's mother is actually a prostitute, and her surname is Wei, so... who is his father?
Especially when Wei Chunhua got out of the car, several businessmen felt familiar. You must know that Wei Chunhua was also a very popular red girl when she was young, so everyone couldn't help thinking about a question in their minds: This girl, I used to Have you ever visited?
Some people are even fantasizing: This Wei Dutong is not my son, is he?Hey, don't tell me, this nose, these eyes, seem to be alike.

But it's no wonder that Wei Xiaobao didn't mention Wei Chunhua to these wealthy businessmen when he was passing through Yangzhou before, after all, this was originally a return of clothes to pretend to be forced to go, and it was so embarrassing to bring it up, and it turned into a father-recognition meeting.

Seeing that Wei Xiaobao and Wei Chunhua had already recognized each other, the mother and son had already come to Liu Dapao arm in arm, Wei Chunhua bowed deeply and said, "Thank you Liu Zhongtang for bringing me here, and for putting on such a big scene again." Pick me up, really, it's like a dream."

Liu Dapao returned a salute to Wei Chunhua with a smile and said, "Mrs. Wei needn't be like this. Xiaobao and I are brothers, and his mother is naturally mine. I have already discussed with Xiaobao. We will build Chenghai County into a bustling commercial city following the example of Yangzhou City, especially the tendering work for places like brothels, taverns and inns, and I hope Mrs. Wei can help a lot.”

As he said that, Liu Dapao, who was very familiar with himself, stepped forward and held Wei Chunhua's arm with Wei Xiaobao from left to right: "You, take this Chaozhou City as your own home. This is our own territory. If you I don’t want to part with your partners in Lichunyuan, so I will bring this Lichunyuan to our Chaozhou city. You will be the boss and let your sisters come over. The rest, those who have helped you over the years, will be helpful to you You can call all those who are kind, and I will arrange for you. We will repay the kindness. As for those who have grudges, you can write a list, and when Xiaobao returns to Beijing, he will pass through Yangzhou and let him pick them up Bloodletting one by one."

"This...how is this so embarrassing, Xiaobao, this, how is this so embarrassing."

Seeing this, Wei Xiaobao smiled and said: "Mother, just listen to Big Brother Liu. Big Brother Liu is not an outsider, really not an outsider. What are you and me... what... are friendships where you can give each other's heads."

"Brothers who cut necks, brothers who live and die." Liu Dapao added from the side.

"Yes, that's what it is... a friend who kissed goodbye."

Liu Dapao smiled and continued: "What about Xiaobao, I borrowed 10,000+ taels of silver from me for some things before, and I can't pay him back so much money now, so I decided to turn this money into a big house , built for you to live in, you don’t have to worry about maids, servants, nursing homes and so on. It’s not easy for you in the first half of your life, and you just stay in Chaozhou to enjoy the blessings in the second half of your life. "

"However, there is one thing that I'm sorry for. Three days ago, the governor of Australia Island, Rotoni, came to me in person to reply to my letter. Originally, we and Xiaobao both wanted to I went to Xiamen to negotiate with the Dutch, but it was delayed for two days because you came here."

"But tomorrow, no matter what we say, we have to leave, and I didn't let Xiaobao stay with you for two more days. I'm really sorry, I'm sorry."

Wei Chunhua naturally hurriedly said: "You are busy, you are busy, don't delay your business because of my old woman, oh, you are all big shots, and you are busy with major issues in the world. I am in good health, and it is not like this I'll die in a day or two, and knowing that Xiaobao is safe and sound, I'm already satisfied, and I'll just let him accompany me when you're done with your work, not bad for a few days."

Seeing that Wei Chunhua was so happy, Wei Xiaobao couldn't help being very satisfied with his own mother, and regardless of the eyes of everyone, he put his arms around Wei Chunhua and kissed her, and at the same time, he was even more grateful to Liu Dapao.

You must know that this matter is of course impossible to be understated like what Liu Dapao said. Luo Dongni came to Chaozhou in person to show his sincerity three days ago, saying that he has made contact with Portuguese India. The proposed Westpac company plan is very interesting, and if the negotiations go well, they are still very willing to join in principle.

On the other hand, for this negotiation, Governor Porter of the Netherlands dropped all the things in Japan and Southeast Asia, and took his large plywood fleet to guard Xiamen Island every day. You must know that the East India Most of the company's fleet is for both military and civilian purposes. Although the more than 30 plywood ships are not considered to be the full strength, they will inevitably cause their garrison and business in Malacca and other places to be deeply affected, resulting in tangible losses and The intangible losses are huge, and more than a dozen letters have already been written to urge him.

In the end, Liu Dapao left the two great governors aside in order to wait for Wei Chunhua. This was actually extremely rude. In modern society, this is definitely a diplomatic dispute.

This respect alone is enough to make Wei Xiaobaoshi die as a confidant.

So at noon that day, Liu Dapao, Wei Xiaobao, Wei Chunhua, Shuang'er and others invited Wei Chunhua to have a meal together, which was regarded as a welcome. After the meal, he took Luo Dongni to hurry to Xiamen in the afternoon.

And it wasn't until this time that Liu Dapao finally learned from Wei Xiaobao what unreliable promises Kangxi had made in order to win over the Dutchman into a covenant relationship.

First of all, of course, it is to recognize the old three controversial issues in the last Qing-Dutch agreement, that is, to cede Xiamen and allow it to garrison troops; to allow the Dutch to do business directly with any Chinese without restriction; The upper fort is owned by the Netherlands, and these must be returned to the Dutch after the Ming Zheng regime has been eliminated.

In addition, there are two additional clauses that should be unilaterally proposed by the Netherlands, and Kangxi has also agreed: one is to allow the Dutch to buy and sell any goods in the Qing Dynasty under the premise of voluntary freedom, including population and slaves .

This year there was a bit of a severe drought in Zhejiang, and the starving imperial court really had no money to help. Maybe Kangxi was trying to throw his burden away.

The second is to allow the Netherlands to settle trade directly in Dutch guilders.

Of course, the Dutch Guilders of this era are also metal currencies, that is, gold coins and silver coins. Strictly speaking, because of the bastard currency policy of the Ming Dynasty, the southern region did not use its own currency at the end of the Ming Dynasty. As far as gold and silver are concerned, Fujian, Guangdong and other provinces prefer to use silver coins from Spain. Because there is an eagle cast on it, it is customarily called Yingyang.

So Kangxi may think that Yingyang is the one who seized the Dutch guilder anyway, maybe he can't tell the difference between the Dutch guilder and Yingyang at all, so let's change it, this wave is for the lives of the Spaniards, he There was nothing to lose, so I agreed.

But it really gave Liu Dapao a headache.
