Hidden Dragon in Qing Dynasty
C1995 Canal Company
The Canal Management company was not far from the Consular House. When Xiang Ying just walked out of the Consular House, Bing Tai and the marines immediately swarmed over and surrounded him.
"How is it? "How was the harvest?" Bing Tai asked anxiously.
Xiang Ying forced a smile and said, "It's a success, the Chief's apology has finally been announced. The French Consular House will seal it, and the Counsellor will sign. This is iron-clad evidence …"
"That's great! "Come, let's go back to the battleship. Big brother will hold a banquet for you, you have done a great service!"
"Don't be in such a hurry, we still have some surprises!" After saying that, he dragged the dejected Canal Company accountant over.
"Seven million Gold franc! All of them are extracted from Canal Company's accounts. If there are not enough promissory notes, then this is the pension that is given to our injured brothers during the collision! "
"Seven million?" Pension! Hahaha … You little rascal are just a bandit from the heavens, the type that no one would ever know, ah hahaha! " Bing Tai started to laugh maniacally.
At this moment, the British and Chinese Army had completely filled the streets of the Consular House, and were slowly encircling them.
Of course, there were also the psychological trauma caused by the domineering attacks of the Zhiyuan Warship during the day, so no one in the entire night's crisis actually dared to resist. The situation of the soldiers getting fired didn't happen at all.
General Jie Sen was currently entangled with Countess La Ku, so he was worried that the British would also split the 'huge amount of money', so he did not mention anything to at all. The group of people pressed on the accountant, who was being protected by the Marine Corps, and quickly headed towards the Canal Company.
At the moment, the Canal Company was brightly lit. This was France's lifeline in Egypt, the second floor was filled with French guards, layers of sandbags were blocking the door, and all the windows were half blocked. The broken windows on the second floor were filled with rifles.
Bing Tai's eyes were sharp, with one glance he could see that in the darkness on the left and right corners of the second floor, there were two Gatling s that had their muzzles swiveled.
"Good heavens!" The French did not defend the Consular House, but hid their elites here … What a good Canal Company! "It seems like there really is a treasure inside!"
"Nonsense, the French have invested less than 20 million pounds into the canal. This will be their main source of income for the next hundred years. How can they not defend it?"
"These are not those useless garrison troops, I can feel that they are all veterans' elites!"
Layers of barbed wire, sandbags, shooting-bunkers... Everyone could feel the danger here. Although the British army had just arrived and dared to expel the French army from other streets, no one dared to rush in here.
Xiang Ying pushed the French accountant who was in English and said, "Don't cause trouble, what we want is money, not the control of the canal. If you're playing tricks on us, then we might as well invite the British to come in and take a look at this place."
The accountant walked to the door helplessly. Under the watchful gaze of the gunmen, he was checked by layers of guards. Just the drawing of the counselor's signature was checked four to five times.
After a long time, these people finally released the Chinese, but Guard Captain began to look for trouble, he only allowed 10 Chinese soldiers to enter the company, not one more.
This time, Bing Tai was really angry. "Bullsh * t!" With seven million Gold franc, how long would it take for ten people to move them? "You are purposefully finding fault …"
At this time, the accountant finally found a chance to retaliate against these eastern bumpkins. He twitched his mouth and said: "Ignorant bastards!" Now that the European countries don't find a lot of paper money and bank notes, what about a hundred years ago? All of them were carrying gold coins and walking? "Barbarians …"
"What did you say?" You're scolding me, aren't you? Xiang Ying... Can you translate it for me? Was this brat just cursing at me? "I'm looking for a smoking..." After saying that, he rolled up his sleeves and was about to make his move.
"What are you trying to do?" This is the neutral Canal Company, how dare you cause trouble? If you dare attack the company, you will be making the entire Canal Company your enemy! "
Bing Tai was so angry that his eyebrows raised when he heard the translation of the assistant behind him, "Octagon Aniseed! We aren't even afraid of the French Consular House, how can we be afraid of you little Canal Company? "Brothers, get ready to fight …"
"Wait a moment …" Xiang Ying suddenly shouted out loudly, he grabbed Bing Tai Lang and said softly, "Don't be rash, this place is different from Consular House, we cannot use force!"
"Are you afraid? Why did it change so much in such a short period of time? What a weird guy... "Compared to your uncle, I can't even compare to you. You're not happy at all. You're afraid, and I'm not afraid!"
Xiang Ying looked and could not stop him. He then shouted, Calm down, are you the envoy with authority or am I? How did the Führer arrange this mission? Are you going to cooperate with me, or am I going to cooperate with you? "
"You …" Bing Tai's face turned completely red.
Xiang Ying comforted Bing Tai and nodded at the French guards. "Alright, I agree to your conditions, I will bring ten soldiers in myself, is that alright?"
The accountant on the other side chatted with the Guard Captain in detail for a while, then nodded his head. Soon enough, a gap appeared in the sandbag at the entrance.
Entering the company, he found out about the luxury of the place, the beautiful marble floors, the black walnut banisters, and the oil paintings hanging on the walls.
Doors were closed, and the brass doorknobs glistened in the gaslight. As for the ornaments in the corners, one didn't have to guess that they were all artifacts with stories.
After going through many layers of security, Xiang Ying finally entered the Canal Company's treasury. Only the heavens knew how thick the walls were, so after entering the iron gate, the entire space immediately quietened down.
There were three accountants left to guard the treasury and two soldiers standing guard at the door. With a glance, Xiang Ying saw a bulging bag of something on the soldier's waist.
"Looks like the French are really afraid of us attacking the Canal Company. They have already arranged for the death warriors to be there, the leader's analysis is correct, we can attack the French Consular House this time, but we can't attack the Canal Company …"
Just as Xiang Ying was rolling his eyes, the accountant had already communicated with his colleagues. The four of them sighed helplessly and took out the keys from their waists, then split into groups to open the safe.
When the heavy iron drawers were opened, Xiang Ying realised that he had not been scolded unfairly. There were not many gold coins in the entire treasury, just boxes after boxes of paper money.
"How is it? "How was the harvest?" Bing Tai asked anxiously.
Xiang Ying forced a smile and said, "It's a success, the Chief's apology has finally been announced. The French Consular House will seal it, and the Counsellor will sign. This is iron-clad evidence …"
