Qing Yangshuo was slightly startled. He did not expect that Britain's leader in America, Clintsy, would not have the courage.
This kind of deal was actually agreed to without blinking an eye.
Qing Yangshuo began to wonder if he had set a low price.
"Okay, for the sake of your sincerity." Qing Yangshuo sighed on the surface, but he was a little excited in his heart. He didn't expect to be able to pick up a handful of Britain's wool.
Captain Green walked in and said: "But there is a condition. It is up to us to decide to sell the land to you Long Yan."
Hearing this, Qing Yangshuo was a little disappointed, but after thinking about it carefully, it was reasonable. How could Britain sell the place he had been operating for many years to Long Yan like this.
Don't look at the cooperation between Long Yan and Britain now.
But how could Britain possibly do something about powerful dragon flames.
"This is the place where we in Britain agreed to trade. Please take a look at it, sir." Captain Green spread out the map marked by Clancy.
But the moment after opening it, Captain Green felt that he had no confidence in his heart.
Qing Yangshuo is also the city lord of Longyan City after all. The places marked on these maps have no practical use at all.
It needs supplies but has no supplies. It is not a transportation thoroughfare, and it has no strategic attributes.
Basically, they are all free places that no one wants. The main thing that is of some use is a colony located in the northern part of America near the French colonial area.
It is said that iron ore veins were discovered there, but now the French colony is rapidly expanding to the north, with the goal of finding a port in the north.
This iron-rich colony was destined to be devoured by France.
The rest of the colonies basically don't even have a mine, and can even be said to be dangerous.
In some places, it can only be said that something is better than nothing.
For example, a colony in southern America was so poor that there was nothing, no mines, no veins, and only Indians settled there. It was completely impoverished.
The only advantage here is that the land is flat.
The climate is pleasant. In peacetime, this kind of city would be a metropolis with a large population.
But this is wartime, and leaving such a city is basically a waste, because the flat terrain is too easy to be attacked and robbed.
So it's basically useless.
Qing Yangshuo was slightly stunned when he saw the map, his face instantly darkened, but he was ecstatic inside.
Are these Britons crazy for sending such a big gift?
The place marked on it is simply a big treasure in Qing Yangshuo's opinion.
Although that treasure land in North America is close to France's colonies, France is now expanding northward, looking for a port city.
That area will definitely be annexed by France.
Britain took out this land just to allow Long Yan to compete with France.
There was iron ore there, and that was the bait.
Qing Yangshuo took a look. Although the iron ore was good, Long Yan was confident of resisting France, but it was too far away from Long Yan City. Although the land was good, it would definitely not be Qing Yangshuo's choice.
Other places...
Qing Yangshuo glanced at the colony in the plains of southern America without leaving a trace. There were many Indians there, but there were no mineral veins.
In addition, it is well connected in all directions, so both France and Britain can easily enter this place.
This is wartime, so this kind of place is good, but neither France nor Britain dares to choose it.
No matter what is built on it, it is too easy for the other party to encroach.
But... Qing Yangshuo doesn't think so. This land is the highest food production area, which is good in wartime.
But it's not Longyan's war. They can develop agriculture there and expand their power.
"Sir, what do you say?" Captain Green asked tentatively.
Qing Yangshuo slammed the table and shouted angrily: "You guys in Britain have gone too far to bully others, I won't sell this gun anymore!"
Captain Green's heart skipped a beat, as expected.
Qing Yangshuo will definitely refuse. He is not a fool. How could he not see the secret inside? None of these places is a good place.
But Captain Green thought of what Clancy wrote in the letter: capture this cannon at all costs.
A flattering smile appeared on Captain Green's stern face: "Don't be angry. Sir, don't you know that we in Britain only have such a small amount of wealth in America, and we don't have much space left."
Qing Yangshuo snorted coldly: "Then why don't you give us Longyan a mine?"
Captain Green looked embarrassed, thinking that this old guy really dared to ask for it.
A mineral vein, does he know the value of the mineral vein? Now Britain and France are fighting over a gold mine and their minds are almost out of their minds.
The purpose is to prevent the other party from getting the gold mine.
However, Captain Green looked at the place on the map, that part of North America, and smiled.
"Sir, we also gave up a vein of minerals, look." Captain Green pointed to the only place on the map with a vein of minerals.
It was even marked with a bright red pen on the map, which clearly told Qing Yangshuo.
There is a treasure here, uncle, come quickly.
Qing Yangshuo shuddered, looked at Captain Green and said, "Are you stupid? That place is so close to France. If we occupy it, won't it be obvious that France will invade it?"
Captain Green smiled, the lie was seen through, but there was no trace of embarrassment on his face.
"You can't say that." Captain Green said with a smile: "France is at war with Britain, so there is no chance for France to attack this place."
"dont you agree."
Qing Yangshuo hesitated for a moment, but still said firmly: "No, this place is too dangerous. If it is really occupied, then we will suffer a big loss!"
"A place, impossible!"
Captain Green understood the meaning of Qing Yangshuo's words: "What does Mr. Green mean..."
Qing Yangshuo put on a reluctant expression and said: "Captain Green, the Dragon Flame Cannon is our brainchild, and it is equivalent to our child."
"If you are really sincere, you have to pay more!"
Captain Green was startled. If you talk so much, you just think you don’t have enough money. You should have just said no.
"no problem!"
"Sir, tell me how much more money you need."
Qing Yangshuo was ecstatic in his heart, but he had a heavy look on his face and stretched out two fingers sadly.
One is placed on the iron ore colony in northern America on the map, and the other is placed on the flat colony.
"Hey, I'm at a loss."
Seeing Qing Yangshuo's two fingers placed on the spot, Captain Green laughed inwardly. These two places can be said to be the two most troublesome places in Britain.
One is too far away. Although there is iron ore, the content is not high. Now it is constantly facing the invasion of France. It is tasteless to eat and it is a pity to abandon it.
As for the other piece...
