"Maybe, all this will disappear soon..."

Jin Biyun was surprised by the nonsensical words, and asked curiously.

"What did you say?"

"war!"

Looking at the woman in front of him, Li Huafeng directly decided to use novel things to attract the woman's attention.

"No one knows, the war has actually broken out, and I'm not talking about the war in South Africa, but another war, it may have broken out, but none of us noticed it, or it's about to break out... ..."

Just as Li Huafeng speculated, when his words fell, the eyes of the woman in front of him really lit up.

"What war? What's about to break out?"

Jin Biyun said.

Shaking his head, Li Huafeng said.

"I don't know, but what I can be sure of is that war will break out soon, and the empire is preparing for a war, maybe... a war with Britain!"

Daming is preparing for war with England!
Li Huafeng's judgment made Jin Biyun startled, and then he explained the cause of this incident, which was nothing more than the fact that their factory had produced a large amount of ammunition since last year.

"Not only our factory, but also other arsenals are almost the same, and they are all overloaded. If it is not for war, it must be fighting against opponents like Britain and the United States. Otherwise, there is no need to produce so many munitions. , so much munitions, so much military expenditure, these must be prepared for war, do you think so, so..."

Li Huafeng sighed deliberately.

"So, peace is gone, we should cherish this good time..."

And such a good thing!
Jin Biyun's eyes widened, and there was a gleam of joy in them.

is this real?Jin Biyun was thinking about this matter until she left the coffee shop. Although she thought of reporting to the British side, she immediately dismissed the idea in her mind.

"Why do you tell them that it's best to let them fight. After the fight, if Da Ming loses, there may be hope for the restoration of the Qing Dynasty..."

Thinking about this matter in her heart, Jin Biyun's face was full of joy, and even her footsteps became much lighter. Looking at the people walking on the street, she was secretly delighted.

What a bunch of ignorant ordinary people. After Daming is defeated by the British, your good days will be over.

However, Ben Gege's good days are yet to come!
While proud, Jin Biyun's face was full of seductiveness.Those beautiful eyes are also full of longing, longing for the future.

She is even full of longing for war. She longs for war, longs for the outbreak of war. In fact, what she longs for is not war, but the possibility of changing her fate after the outbreak of war.

War will change the fate of many people.

People who enjoy peace look forward to the outbreak of war, but for people in war, what they long for is the end of war.

In the last decade of the nineteenth century, the war in southern Africa was still going on. For the Boers at war, most of the fighting since they declared war was successful. In Pretoria People in Asia are always talking about saying that one more victory can end the war, and they will also ridicule those British guys as cowards.

People don't even want to face the fact that the Brits don't lose a battle, and they won't be beaten by another victory.

The reason why the Boers are so confident is that until now their army has won all battles - the Boers occupied several cities including Kimberley, and they even wiped out and captured tens of thousands of British people. It's something to brag about.Although, these victories have come at a significant cost.

In the hospitals and homes of some residents in Pretoria, a large number of wounded and sick people poured in. At the same time, many women wore mourning clothes. The rows of soldiers' graves in the cemetery are also increasing every day.

And for ordinary people, what is the biggest impact?
That is, the prices of necessities of life have risen sharply.All kinds of materials, including flour, began to rise. The only thing that makes people feel a little lucky is that the beef and mutton in the butcher shop can be supplied, and there is plenty of pork, as well as chicken and vegetables.

Although the British banned goods from entering the Republic of South Africa through Cape Town, the Ming Dynasty did not completely seal the border, they only banned the export of arms, but luxury goods including tea, coffee, silk, perfume, fashion magazines and books will continue to flow into South Africa.But prices must have risen considerably, even of the cheapest cottons.

The increase in prices has led to many smugglers on the border map. Those smugglers from Ming Dynasty came here by car and brought all kinds of supplies.

And those materials are not limited to the necessities of life that people need, more are the arms that the Boers need.

"You actually blocked the border..."

When delivering the goods, Ma Rulong heard the Boer officers who received the goods sigh and complained at that time. He was looking around boredly. Although he could see the high morale of the Boers, the clothes on them were There are all kinds of clothes, and there are all kinds of clothes.

The earth-colored, gray clothes are the colors of the Boer military uniform, and even this kind of fabric is rare here.After the outbreak of the war, the British blockade has affected the lives of many Boers.

"The border closure is just a show for the British, look sir, we have sent you everything you need..."

"But the price has risen a lot, more than double that of our direct purchase."

"There is no way, the British are watching, but at least I can guarantee that we can buy you what you need."

Jing Zaigui patted his chest for sure.

"Didn't you say last time that your hospital is already worried about the lack of quinine, calomel, painkillers, anesthetics, iodine and other drugs? I brought you two whole trucks this time. "

"Thank you, Mr. Cheng,"

After thanking the major, he said.

"Medicine, you are all willing to bring it here, because it is expensive, but what we need is not just medicine, gauze and cotton bandages are also in short supply now, and they cannot be thrown away after use in the hospital, so all women who serve in the hospital They all go home with baskets of bloody cloth strips, wash and iron them, and then take them back to the hospital for use by other wounded. We need more gauze and cotton bandages, after all, our soldiers need it to bind wounds. "

"Of course, your request will be met, and we will ship the supplies you need soon..."

Jing Zaigui once again made a guarantee, but can his guarantee be honored?
I am afraid that only God knows that many people are willing to do the drug business, because the profit of the business is very high.However, few people are willing to do small businesses like gauze and cotton bandages. After all, their profits are limited and they will take up a lot of transportation space.

But it's okay to bring some of these materials occasionally, after all, it is beneficial to deepen the cooperative relationship between the two parties.

Of course, those supplies are also considered humanitarian relief supplies.And it can also restore the health of those wounded Boer soldiers, allowing them to continue fighting.

Isn't it for this purpose that he came all the way to this land and took the risk to provide so many arms to the Boers?For the Boers to fight here.

As an arms smuggler, the purpose of coming to this land is to make the flames of war burn more fiercely. Only in this way can he earn more wealth. Of course, the more important thing is that only in this way can he achieve the goal of fighting the empire. ...
