As the saying goes, giving face and asking for face means being knowledgeable, but giving face should not be greedy.
Harry is a smart man, how could he do such stupid things?
Therefore, he accepted Qi Yu's suggestion obediently, oh no, it should be said that he accepted his invitation.
invite?
What does this mean?
Is such that.
Qiyu plans to create a Chinese sect in Australia, with the purpose of vigorously promoting and spreading the traditional Chinese culture, whether it is Confucius, Mencius, Laozi, Zhuangzi, or Zizi.
In short, all the essence of Chinese culture must be regarded as classics and widely disseminated.
Although this plan is wonderful, it lacks a powerful 'leader' person.
What? Leadership choice?
Isn’t there a ready-made one here?
Harry coughed several times and showed a proactive look.
Qi Yu followed the trend and issued a tentative invitation.
So, facilitate.
On the surface, it seems that Harry got a big advantage, but in fact it is not the case.
Let’s listen to the explanation.
In Qi Yu's original plan, he planned to use force as a means to conquer this place. Otherwise, he would not have mobilized troops and sent generals here.
However, Harry has already established a certain reputation here. In this case, why not take advantage of it?
It is definitely more cost-effective to win troops without fighting than to lose troops and generals. Moreover, this approach can also establish a certain basis of public opinion.
Considering this aspect, Qi Yu can be regarded as making a big profit.
Objectively speaking, the two of them each have what they need and are using each other.
Therefore, they quickly reached an agreement.
Harry has quite a lot of experience in starting a religion in a foreign land.
If you include Taishan and Guangdong, this is the third time that I have struggled with it. It can be said that it is very familiar and easy to do.
The only thing missing is funds.
At this time, Qi Yu deliberately took advantage of the situation and said in a low voice: His trip was in a hurry, and he only brought some necessary guns and grain, and did not have any extra cash with him. You say, what should we do?
Yes, if there is a problem, shouldn’t you go to the leader to solve it?
Don't you just worry about where you sit?
Harry thought for a while and said: After Fuxi's death, he took possession of the soft gold and silver he plundered in Java. If he saves some money, it can barely be enough.
use.
This feeling is good!
When Qi Yu heard this, he gave him a big thumbs up.
In this way, all the money he brought over can be used for future military supplies.
Haha, I saved money again.
After discussing the cooperation, the two came to Jones' detention place together.
Originally, Harry wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to talk and raise his doubts about Yuxi, but unexpectedly, as soon as he opened his mouth, Qi Yu avoided him because of his busy schedule.
Doesn't he want to talk?
Not really!
Qi Yu just didn't want to offend him and said: The treasure you spent a lot of effort to find is actually a worthless fake.
Wouldn't it be better to let him immerse himself in longing fantasies?
So, there is really no need to expose it.
Let's say that the two of them came to Jones with joy.
But they saw that the ghost was kneeling on the ground, praying to God, as if begging for life.
"Hello, Mr. Jones, how are you doing after this long separation?"
"Ah...it's you after all!"
It is not difficult to see from Jones's expression that although he was a little surprised, he was not surprised. Obviously, he had guessed the outline of the matter.
He even guessed that Qi Yu would come to Australia in person.
After being stunned for a while, Jones came back to his senses and asked: "Master Qi, did your Qiongzhou really eat the land of Australia?"
"Of course!" Qi Yu smiled and said confidently: "This is an unclaimed land. Whoever comes first is the one who gets it first. I, Qiongzhou, come first, so naturally I have absolute sovereignty over this place. That is, He said that the attacks you carried out before were truly armed invasions."
Seeing how calmly he said it, Jones couldn't help but believe it completely.
Of course, this is also related to Harry's previous campaign.
If you tell a lie enough times, it becomes true.
Now, the facts are there. Great Britain has committed an unprovoked armed aggression.
The most unfortunate thing is that he was captured alive.
Thinking of this, Jones couldn't help but sigh and said: "The matter has come to this, and it is useless to say more. According to Master Qi, how should it end?"
Qi Yu smiled and said: "It's easy to handle, just follow the routine!"
Convention?
ah……
Jones thought about it for a moment and immediately showed a look of panic.
According to unwritten international practice, if it constitutes an act of armed aggression or attempted aggression, the defeated aggressor must make corresponding compensation, including ceding territory in exchange for price.
But in this way, it constitutes a black stain on the level of 'national humiliation'.
Jones is a high-spirited and face-saving person, and of course he is not willing to take the blame.
If you really insult your country, you will definitely be scolded to death by those nobles when you return to Great Britain!
"Master Qi, look, is there any other solution? As long as it does not humiliate the country, I am willing to accept any of your conditions." Jones frowned and pleaded.
Upon hearing this, Qi Yu's face suddenly turned cold, and he hummed: "Compensation for defeat is a matter of course. Is it possible that you still want to get nothing?"
Jones quickly explained: "Master Qi, you have misunderstood. I am not giving away any money, but making compensation in a relatively soft way. If I lose my power and humiliate the country, how can I have the dignity to return to Great Britain?"
"You want to change your approach~~"
"Um……"
After Qi Yu murmured several times, his eyes suddenly flashed and he said: "In principle, it is definitely not allowed, but who said that we are old friends who have known each other for many years? For the sake of the past, I will I accepted your request."
Jones was not a fool either. After thanking him first, he hurriedly said humbly: "Sir, please state your terms."
"What a cheerful man!"
After the praise, Qi Yu stroked his beard and said: "My condition is that you must help the King of Sarawak to put pressure on Sumatra and force them to surrender to our Qiongzhou."
What a big ambition!
It’s like looking at Shu from a long distance!
After hearing this, Harry quickly reminded Qi Yu in a low voice: "Sir, once he gets out of trouble, he will probably regret it later. And by then, you will have nothing to control and you will not be able to do anything to him!"
"There's no handle? Wouldn't it be fine if I made one?"
"manufacture?"
"Um……"
The method was to force him to sign an unequal treaty in duplicate that would be "a loss of power and humiliation to the country."
However, the treaty clearly stated that if they adopted military sanctions against Sumatra, the treaty could be voided.
In addition, the intensity of military sanctions is also specifically marked. For example, it must defeat its navy and annihilate its army of more than 10,000 people. Only in this way can the conditions for invalidation be considered.
Well, this is a very obvious attempt to kill someone with a knife.
