Lord Moyu was forced to open

Chapter 1019: You take care of the first part, I’ll take care of the second part! We all have a brig

After leaving the palace, Paul immediately couldn't hold back his excitement and said to George with an excited face:
"Mr. George, this is great. The Emperor of Song Dynasty has agreed to let us trade, and we can finally make a lot of money!

When the time comes, I will definitely bring a boatload of white porcelain back to Great Britain. You have no idea where the Song Dynasty white porcelain I got from those Japanese people last time was resold for three times the weight of gold!
The goods of the Song Dynasty are so popular in Great Britain. As long as the goods can be transported back to the Song Dynasty, you will definitely make money!
And guess what I found at Honglu Temple yesterday?
Sugar! Flawless white sugar! Crystal clear white sugar!
Even if we can't buy a boatload of porcelain, if we buy back a boatload of sugar, I can earn enough gold coins to spend in a lifetime given the sweet temperament of the nobles in the country!

What a golden coin! "

Paul was so excited that he almost danced, but George's face was not so happy. Instead, he kept frowning and thinking about something.

After listening to Paul's story, George poured cold water on him at the right time.

"Mr. Paul, the prerequisite for the Emperor of the Song Dynasty to allow us to trade is that we can provide the Song Dynasty with 10 million kilograms of spices per year. Only then will we be allowed to trade.

You have to know that this is not an easy task. With the current output of the British colonies, our annual spices are only about five million kilograms.

It was still half the distance from the Emperor of the Song Dynasty! "

Hearing this, Paul calmed down and immediately asked: "Then what should we do? Is it possible that trade is going to fail?! This is not possible! This is simply making us watch gold and silver. The mountains pass before our eyes!"

George shook his head helplessly and consoled him in a harmonious voice: "Don't be impatient, Mr. Paul.

We traveled all the way across the sea from Great Britain to the Song Dynasty, naturally not for failure.

Since the Emperor of the Song Dynasty has given his conditions, what we can do is try our best to meet these conditions.

The yield of spices is not static.

Today, the spices in the colonies of Great Britain all grow wild, and no one deliberately cultivates them at all.

If we can convince the domestic congressmen to allow us to use local indigenous people to grow spices, then by next year, we can afford to provide more than 10 million spices per year. "

Paul's eyes immediately lit up: "Then what are you waiting for? We must convince them!"

But at this time, George's face showed a look of embarrassment, and he said helplessly:
"Fortunately, the House of Lords is full of nobles, and our Charles family can still have some influence on it, but there is nothing I can do about the House of Commons.

Those members of the House of Commons have always been at odds with us in the House of Lords. If it is known that our Charles family is involved, I am afraid that not only will this matter not be accomplished, but it will most likely cause trouble for our actions. "

George sighed when he said this, but what he didn't expect was that after hearing what he said, Paul laughed.

Just when George was puzzled, Paul smiled and said: "Well, George, you just need to convince the House of Lords. As for the House of Commons, you don't have to worry at all."

"what do you mean?"

George looked at Paul in surprise.

Paul patted his chest proudly and said: "Perhaps it is difficult for you in the House of Lords to handle the House of Commons because you are class enemies.

But for us, it only takes one word to fix the House of Commons! "

"What word?"

The rest of the companions looked over curiously.

Paul chuckled, took out a Great Britain gold coin from his arms, held it up in front of everyone and said confidently: "Money is enough!"

Everyone suddenly understood.

The members of the House of Commons are representatives of all walks of life. Unlike the nobles of the House of Lords, they do not have such good economic conditions. So using money to deal with them might actually be used in the right place!
On the same day, as soon as he returned to Honglu Temple, George began to write a letter to China and sent it on the same day.

The letter quickly reached Jianjiang via waterways and headed for Great Britain.

Paul also wrote more than a dozen letters and sent them back.

The last time he came to the Far East, the deal in the Japanese country had already made Paul's family a lot of money. This time he wrote to ask his family to help him get rid of the members of the House of Commons.

The rest of his letters were to other British merchants.

He believed that as long as these seamen knew the specific situation, they would do their best to help the proposal pass if they made a lot of silver and gold coins.

Leaving aside how George and Paul were trying to figure out how to deal with the domestic hospitals, Paul and the others had no idea how much of a shock their appearance had brought to Bianjing!
After these days of publicity, the inequality that the red-haired ghost is equal to the Peach Blossom Spring has become deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Everyone is guessing where this peach blossom garden is.

When Paul and the others came out of the palace, they did not know that they had been secretly targeted by dozens of forces.

In the palace, when Wang Huaien returned to Zhao Jun, the first thing Zhao Jun asked was: "How is the reaction outside?"

Wang Huaien hurriedly replied: "When I sent them out, I found that at least a dozen waves of people were already targeting Paul and the others."

Zhao Jun finally showed a smile, nodded with a smile and said: "That's good, remember that the Imperial City Secretary must also pay attention to protecting the safety of the envoy when adding fuel to the fire.

After all, if something happens to a country's mission in the Song Dynasty, even if the Song Dynasty is not afraid, it will be ugly to say it out. "

Wang Huaien nodded quickly and promised:
"Your Majesty, don't worry. The Imperial City Division has arranged enough manpower to protect them. Although more than a dozen forces are targeting Paul and the others, your Majesty, you can rest assured that no one can protect them under the eyes of the Imperial City Division. They robbed them, but their safety was still guaranteed.”

Zhao Jun nodded slowly, and then asked: "Is it over to clear my father-in-law's land?"

Wang Huai'en nodded immediately: "Back to Your Majesty, news came from the local area yesterday that the land of the last chieftain in Caiyun County has been completely recorded.

Zhang Shilang and the others are already on their way back to Beijing with the latest fish scale album. "

"Is Zhang Zheng on his way back?"

Zhao Jun touched his chin and pondered for a while and then said immediately: "With this credit, it is enough for Zhang Zheng to go further, so the formation of the cabinet should also be put on the agenda.

Recently in the court, Zhang He's behavior has become more and more serious.

I'm afraid if I hadn't been keeping an eye on him, he, the prime minister, wouldn't even want to go to court.

Since he is so unwilling, then prepare for him to retire and return to his hometown. "

Zhao Jun shook his head helplessly, and Wang Huai'en could only smile bitterly.

He couldn't say much about Zhang Xiang. After all, in addition to being the prime minister of the dynasty, Zhang Xiang was also the imperial concubine's biological grandfather. He was still a relative, so he couldn't comment at will.

When facing Zhang Xiang, the best thing to do is to shut up.
