1850 American Gold Tycoon.

Chapter 127 I think

"Mr. Liang, you just won a big victory. I think you should take advantage of the victory and take down the Nevada and New Mexico regions together!"

"Mr. Liang, I think only an independent republic can protect the interests of the people of California and your interests in California."

"Mr. Liang, I feel that with your ability and personal charm, you can completely unite the people on the former Mexican territory."

The New York consortium handed over their gold, and Liang Yao whistled happily to transport the newly harvested [-] ounces of gold to the Sacramento branch of the American bank.

He heard Gibson's chattering voice.

Liang Yao won the battle and wiped out half of the elite regiment of the American Army, and the morale of California was at an all-time high.

This made Gibson see hope. Gibson felt that although California was just a corner, it was more reliable than Mexico they had originally supported.

If Liang Yao could be persuaded to take the opportunity to eat the Mexican territory that the United States had just swallowed, and establish a new republic in the Americas, it would not only weaken the national strength of the United States, but also directly contain the United States in the Americas.

This is in the interests of the British Empire.

Eurasia is the world island of this world, and whoever controls Eurasia controls this world.

The current attempt by the Russians to open up an outlet in the Black Sea has aroused the vigilance of Britain and France.

Compared with the rising of the United States, both Britain and France are more wary of the Russian ambitions in the Black Sea and Asia Minor.

After all, compared to Russia, the United States, which is far away in the Americas, is only a disease of scabies, and Russia, which is close to the European continent, is a serious problem.

Mexico cannot be supported, and as for Great Britain itself, it is impossible to fight against the United States in person.

Therefore, it has become a good choice to support an agent outside of the Canadian colonies and Mexico to fight the United States to the end.

But for now, both the high-level California officials led by Liang Yaoma and the federal government led by Fillmore have maintained a very restrained attitude.

Both parties seem to be very rational and have no intention of continuing to expand the conflict, which makes Gibson very anxious. This is a good opportunity for Wu to step on the sewing machine and make a lot of paper (a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity).

Watching the United States gradually move towards peace, Gibson felt more uncomfortable than the British Empire in the quagmire of war.

If Liang Yao's strength allowed, he could indeed consider the big cakes that Gibson drew for him.

It's just that Liang Yao knows how much he has in relation to the current California.

Moreover, Gibson was also very dishonest. The arms brought to him were all the stocks of the British army in the colonies. A bunch of old things had been changed hands.

"Mr. Gibson, I don't want you to think, I want me to think."

Liang Yao didn't want to pay attention to Gibson, who was ruthless. Although Gibson was only a banker at Barings Bank in name, his whole body revealed the insidiousness of a politician.

"As a businessman, you are a little too lenient. If you want to talk about politics with me, I'm sorry. If you want to talk about business with me, I welcome it."

Speaking of business, Le Goff immediately became energetic.

Legoff was more religious about fomenting war between California and the United States of America than Gibson.

Gibson's so-called investigation these days is actually racking his brains to sow the relationship between the California authorities and the federal government.

It's just that the top executives in California didn't buy Gibson's account, but they didn't drive him away, so they kept hanging on Gibson, which made Gibson feel very uncomfortable.

Le Goff made a serious on-the-spot investigation. He felt that California has great potential and is very suitable for investment. He has already planned to ask his superiors for instructions to allow the Bank of France to open a branch in California.

"Mr. Liang, according to my investigation, I feel that the current transportation methods in California are too backward. The American River route alone cannot meet the transportation needs of San Francisco and Sacramento, and the carrying capacity of horse-drawn carriages is extremely limited.

If there is a railroad that can connect the San Francisco and Sacramento areas, I think it will be very helpful for the development of the two places. ’ Le Goff spoke his mind.

The competitiveness of French industrial products is higher than that of the United States and lower than that of the United Kingdom.

In the international trade market, France has also been suppressed by the United Kingdom.

Britain highly respects free trade, because Britain has vast and wealthy colonies that provide blood transfusions for the British mainland, providing cheap raw materials and a vast dumping market.

To put it bluntly, it is to pass on the loss of products to the colonies.

This is why British industrial products are so good and cheap.

France also has colonies, but the French colonies are far less wealthy than the British colonies, and cannot transfuse France.At least you can't transfuse France like the British colonies.

If France wants to improve the competitiveness of its products in the international market, the only way to go is to exploit its workers.

Once the exploitation is overdone, it is easy to detonate the domestic revolution. Once the revolution breaks out, these people even dare to send the king to the guillotine.

That's why Le Goff is more concerned about investing in California than Gibson.

Even a small market is very attractive to the French.

And it's not that the British don't need a market, it's just that what they need is a huge market like the Qing Dynasty. A small market like California with a population of just over [-] is not very attractive to the UK.

"I think so too, but the state's railways are temporarily closed to foreign capital." Liang Yao said.

It was impossible for Liang Yao to hand over the railway to the French. It was the lifeblood of California's transportation, so it would be more reassuring to hold it in his own hands.

In the United States, building a railway can also obtain land along the railway and priority development rights.

The initial cost of building the railway is very high, and the US government has provided such generous conditions in order to encourage private people to build the railway.

Of course, this has also led to many railway companies blindly building worthless railways, because they are not building railways for the purpose of building railways, but to obtain land along the railways.

"Really? That's a pity."

Legoff, who was rejected by Liang Yao, said with some displeasure.

"However, we welcome French industrial and mining enterprises to settle in California, and the state will give certain preferential policies to such companies and enterprises." Liang Yao said to Legoff.

"My shipping company still has a big shortage in terms of ships. If the company in your country can provide advanced steamships, I think there will be great prospects for cooperation between us."

"I'm looking forward to our collaboration."

Legoff's face softened slightly, he shook hands with Liang Yao and said.

Back in San Francisco, Fremont brought him good news.

"In the latest round of votes in Congress, more and more members have changed their attitudes. Even in the House of Representatives, nearly one-third of the members oppose the recovery of the California-Mexico government's land grant." Fremont smiled. said.

"Mr. President is also promoting our speeches, and the current form is very beneficial to us!"
