C58 Moral Cleanliness

Xiao Letian was thoroughly angered by Hua Ruohan's words. He thought to himself, "You, Diplomat, what morals do you have to say?" When you accompanied English and French to the Yin Daqing, why didn't you think about morality?

"I'm surprised by Minister's understanding. This is a very normal business. How can you be connected to crime and conspiracy? Brothers, aren't my actions regulating the financial markets of the Daqing? Does Minister think that the old financial system of the Qing Dynasty is very advanced? "

On the surface, Xiao Letian looked very polite and respectful, but in his heart, he was already cursing, "You old profiteer, I don't believe you can't tell how fat the meat bones I threw you all are! Americans, you don't need to use military power to break the business barrier of the Daqing, isn't that what you dream of? This is not how negotiation posturing should be, be careful, you might use too much force and break it. "

Xiao Letian did not know that, but Hua Ruohan's heart was also in turmoil. He did not expect Xiao Letian to actually throw out the Industrial Zones as a big cake. Minister was truly tempted, but he clearly remembered the telegraph that His Excellency The President sent him.

"I will use my life as repayment for the personal graciousness I have granted to me, but I cannot use my morals to make a deal. My hands cannot support any of the Wu steelers, I hope that Liu steel- bless Xiao Letian!"

With just that one sentence from telegraph, Hua Ruohan immediately understood President Lincoln's hidden meaning. It was not that President Lincolnson did not want to sell these things to Xiao Letian, but he wanted to follow the procedures of the law. This kind of business was only aimed at Government.

It was still statesman who was obsessed with moral cleanliness. This statesman who was well-known for his history, his morals were unimaginable to most people. Although he was a bit stubborn, it was still admirable.

Minister Hua Ruohan still shook his head. "Mr. Xiao, I'll tell you the truth, His Excellency The Presidentson doesn't care about the conditions you ask for, it doesn't affect the interests of the USA, on the contrary it would be of great benefit …" But for His Excellency The President, what identity did you use to buy it was a very important question... "

In the end, Minister of Warrohan gritted his teeth and said viciously: "If you want to make a deal, there are only two conditions. First, you must obtain the transaction authorization letter from the Government, or you can become a daoyin level high official, so we can even consider selling the Battleship to you, not to mention the scissor boat …"

"Also, you have to guarantee that your actions are not a conspiracy to subvert your Home Country. If you discover any clues about this, my USA will immediately stop the trade …"

Sigh … Xiao Letian let out a long sigh. The current USA was completely different from the tyrannical USA who had experienced two world wars. At this time, USA was a Country with the spirit of pioneering and innovating, and even had a strict moral sense, which was the starting point of a future powerful nation's prosperity.

In the real history, after Lin Ken maintained the unity of the Country, the national destiny entered the fast track, relying on a vast territory and abundant resources. In addition to the fact that Country Immigrants did not have any historical baggage, in the period from the Civil War to the First World War, less than fifty years had passed, he quickly became one of the strongest and most powerful Country on Earth.

And after the battle ended, the USA became the ruler of the world, combining all the power of a nation. What was even more unbelievable was that after the end of the first world war, isolationism prevailed in the USA. Even until the second world war, Americans was not interested in international affairs.

It wasn't until Pearl Harbor that the USA officially entered the war, and by that time, the second world war was already halfway through.

Xiao Letian had always had a feeling that USA before World War II and after World War II were two completely different Country. Before World War II, USA rarely displayed his image of hegemony in the world, and he was more like a young man with strict morals. And USA after the Second World War had become a wretched uncle, bullying both men and women across the globe.

Now was not the time to think about it so far. Xiao Letian heard the determination in Hua Ruohan's tone. He knew that this should be Mr. President's last condition. After the negotiations ended, they had reached a deadlock.

"You want me to find Manchu for a power of attorney? Or perhaps acquire the status of daoyin? " Xiao Letian looked at Minister with a wry smile, "What do you think is the probability of these two things?" Xiao Letian's question was met with a wry smile from Hua Ruohan.

Looking for empress dowagers or Yi? To obtain this kind of authorization, it was a complete joke. It was no different from committing suicide. Furthermore, the Qing Dynasty's daoyin was a first or second grade heavyweight. It was already the peak of the local officials. Not even a window, let alone a door.

The silence in the room lasted for ten minutes. After thinking carefully, Xiao Letian suddenly smiled and said, "Minister, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to meet me. Please show respect to Mr. President on my behalf." As for His Excellency The President's request, I think I'll be able to give you a reply after a month … "

At this time, Xiao Letian suddenly smiled evasively, "I'm afraid it's difficult to become daoyin, but I feel like I have the life of a prime minister. Maybe in a month, I'll use my status as prime minister to discuss this business with you …"

Hua Ruohan and Liu Yisi were shocked. They thought Xiao Letian had gone mad. You don't even think you can be a ninth rank official? Besides, the Qing Dynasty did not have the position of Prime Minister. This is nonsense, you think you can enter the Military Intelligence Service if you can't even be daoyin?

The first unofficial negotiation between Xiao Letian and the USA ended in a fog of fog. When Hua Ruohan and Liu Yisi were escorted by the embassy bodyguards to climb into an inconspicuous Qing Kingdom Carriage and leave, suddenly, at the other end of the long street ran a panting Little Buddy.

"Manager..." old shopkeeper's... "Hurry up and go take a look …" When Little Buddy ran to the entrance of the Coastal building, he saw Xiao Letian immediately. Little Buddy had fought in the Mountain Temple before, so he knew that this was the real Big Owner.

"Don't make all those false presents, hurry up and tell us what happened?" Fan Lian asked.

"Aiya, storekeeper, it's bad. A muck cart just flipped in front of our shop. The whole street is filled with unclean things. We rushed out to negotiate, only to find a group of thugs fighting with just a few sentences …"

'Mixed... Didn't I tell you that the Oceanic still hasn't opened yet? Wouldn't it be fine if you pay me to deal with these thugs? "

"The shopkeeper can't, I heard Locals say that it's Xiao Biansun's underhand, we sent four hundred disciples of the red packet to the Northern Capital City the day before yesterday. That's four hundred hawks, this is a huge gift for the Northern Capital City, but it's still not enough, you still want to cause trouble for us …"

Xiao Letian glared at them when he heard that. "Aiya, are you treating us as bumpkins?" "Dragon Lord, you'll find out what's going on in the martial arts world …" Xiang Shaolong who was behind him cupped his hands and rushed straight towards Oceanic.

Xiao Letian's Oceanic's name was very vulgar. It was as if he was afraid that others wouldn't know that he was the one who opened it. The name "Rakuten" was now wrapped in red silk and was waiting for the day after tomorrow when the auspicious day arrived to be unveiled by Xiao Letian.

The Rakuten was very close to the Coastal building. They were on a street and after a few hours, they could already see the chaotic scene at the entrance.

In front of Oceanic's door, a mule pulled on a cart of dung. The muddy yellow Five Valley Reincarnation object was spilled all over the ground, the suffocating smell caused Xiao Letian's head to hurt. A dirty old man was standing on the dung cart, cursing loudly. In front of him, ten thugs were stomping their feet on the dung soup, wanting to rush into the shop.

At this time, the ones guarding the Oceanic were Luo Huo's ten Musketeers, they formed a semicircle at the entrance of the shop and blocked the attack of the rascals.

"Aiya! You startled Laozi's donkey and overturned the dung cart, and you still dare to hit him? Are there still any laws? Old folks, are you just going to stare at me like that? "All of you, rush up and beat them! Pour their dung onto my red silk cloth and onto the signboard. I want to see how they'll open their businesses …

The scrawny man on the dung cart was clearly the leader. He was trying his best to encourage Liu Tie to rush up as well. In crowd, some hoodlums who didn't do proper work agreed with him and shouted loudly that the outsiders bullied Locals, bewitching him a bit.

Luo Huo and the rest of them were so angry that their head almost fell off. Even though they were Buddy, they were Caravan guards who had killed before and had seen blood before. Once their blood and Qi surged, the combat power would not be something that a street hoodlum could compare to. Despite fighting with fewer people, their defenses were firmly in place. The thugs had charged at least ten times, but they were still unable to get close to the entrance of the store no matter how hard they tried.

The scrawny man on the dung cart was also worried. He was a senior general of Xiao Biansun, underhand, nicknamed dirty mouse. Today, Xiao Biansun issued a death order. He must splash the fecal water on the plate with red silk tied to it, in order to make Xiao Letian's Oceanic become the laughingstock of the entire Tanggu before it even opens, and make everyone in the world look up to this Oceanic.

Xiao Letian really doesn't believe in anything, not to mention the ancient era, even in the modern society, one had to be motivated to do business. If the customers knew that you had yet to do anything in your business, they would already have to dump manure, so your credibility would basically be zero.

"Fuck, are you guys still poking around as dead people? "Go up and fight …" Xiao Letian was completely confused. At this time, the guards beside him had their eyes on fire. They had been waiting for Xiao Letian to say something, so they urged their horses forward.

At this time, Fan Lian suddenly shouted, "Nobody moves, the business is not open yet, who dares to do business with us anymore? "Everything is peaceful and precious. This sort of attitude must be endured …"

"old shopkeeper, are you crazy? Now that we are bullied to the door, do we still have to act like cowards? " The young guards were so angry that they wanted to rush forward. Fan Lian, on the other hand, did not know where he got the evil aura, but he kept blocking the path of the guards' horses.

At this time, Xiang Shaolong opened his mouth and said, "We will listen to old shopkeeper. Our Oceanic cannot become the laughingstock of the Tanggu people before opening our doors. One must know that the foreign people are also watching the joke …" As he said that, Dragon Lord's eyes looked towards the distant Oceanic's windows. There were over a dozen faces of foreigners there who were cowering in fear.

Dragon Lord jumped off his horse and easily squeezed out of crowd into a small alley. Soon, he stood in the crowd and looked up at dirty mouse, who was cursing at the top of his lungs. He snorted in a low voice and said, "Hmph …" This sound was just like a sound wave weapon, causing dirty mouse to quiver. The onlookers nearby felt as if their hearts were being knocked.

Dragon Lord's left hand thumb formed a ring on the third button on his chest. With a simple gesture, dirty mouse broke out in cold sweat.

Kid didn't care about the filth and jumped into the fecal water. He nodded his head and bowed. His hands quickly changed positions and the two of them actually acted like they were deaf and mute.

Not even three minutes had passed and dirty mouse was already sweating profusely. In the end, he beat a thousand people and left with more than ten thugs to help him straighten the dung cart without saying a word.

Xiao Letian was stunned, "That's it?" Do you think that you can just leave after hitting your mute? "

Fan Lian was indeed an old martial artist. He whispered in Xiao Letian's ear, "These are the common cuts of the two gangs. Looks like Dragon Lord is of high seniority. Grandchild cannot afford to offend Dragon Lord …"
