The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Chapter 3204: Mengla's consideration

Bangla Port, Bangla City Government is busy with several major undertakings. For example, the establishment of Bangla Parliament, the upper house is participated by Korean colonists, and the lower house is composed of local comprador businessmen and newly recruited military officers. Bangla All the elites of the society participate in it. This is the strategy of the South Korean government.

"Don't say, this will set up two houses for the next year. This funding problem has been solved a lot." said a bank manager. He looked at the newspaper in his hand. The newspaper reported the entry of members. The number of Senators was very small, with less than 100 people. However, the House of Commons went to more than 350 people, and there seemed to be further progress. In fact, they all know this very well, as long as they pay enough funds, for example, to buy more bonds or donate more funds. Such a quota can be obtained. Such a quota can not only be purchased, but also can be reserved. The parliament has to be replaced regularly. In order to achieve the purpose of wining, the Bangladeshi government even sells the quota for the next election. This way As a result, more comprador businessmen are desperately buying such places. Such things are rare in other places. After all, who would buy such places.

"Now we can't take care of these comprador merchants. Our government is to attract them to participate in the establishment and then do other things. These have nothing to do with us, but the problem is that if the riots are not put down as soon as possible, our losses will be very great. . You must know that a large number of banknotes will become waste paper. This has a great destabilizing factor for our banknote issuance." A currency supervisor said worriedly.

The main business of the Bank of Korea here is the paper money business. Only by issuing more paper money can they madly intercept the economic profits here. This is an indisputable fact. If such a large-scale riot broke out this time, the bank must also bear more. Many responsibilities, because they issued a large number of paper currency like waste paper, which caused inflation, and then caused a great change in the people’s living standards, especially the dissatisfaction of the native soldiers. They have to bear great responsibilities. However, the government report did not mention their situation, which also made the banks bolder, because they need to stabilize and quickly quell the riots. Only in this way can the social order be stabilized again.

"Well, that's right. But the current paper currency is already very bad. If we use this currency, we will not be able to exchange it. You have to know, Bangla. There is no gold reserve in the entire Bangla area. Yes, it is ridiculous that our government even issued banknotes without any gold reserves. This in itself is very risky." said the bank manager.

The government is greedy, the banks are also greedy, but greed should have a degree of greed, but in Bangla. Everyone's food is not very good. The government keeps handing over a large amount of tax revenue to the local people to support local economic construction. The navy's military expenditures, local infrastructure construction, and related tax subsidies are all supported by Bangla and other colonial economies. Without these, how could the Korean government develop.

The same is true for banks, in order to expand their loans. At the same time expand the role of banks. In fact, the government needs banks to issue banknotes while meeting tax requirements. Some banks also need to chase their own profits. So they came up with ways to issue more banknotes to intercept their own money madly. profit. This led to the occurrence of riots. But now no one is pursuing these things. What they need to see is that Bangla must restore the original order. If the original order cannot be restored, then some of it will be for nothing and many things will be done. This is what they are currently facing.

"I heard that the government is stepping up the establishment of a new Bangladeshi army. I don't know if such an army has such a fighting capacity. If they have it, it can solve our big problems." The supervisor said.

"Those are formed by the locals of the Menggla people. Who knows if they are the same as the native soldiers. If they are really the same as the native soldiers, that situation will not do us any good." The manager said worriedly. In fact, they don’t have any good feelings about the army formed by the locals. There are many native regiments, but most of them are weak in combat effectiveness. In fact, the Koreans have always been regarded by the Koreans as infantry at a lower level than the police, because they are incapable of combat, have no combat effectiveness, and have very limited fighting enthusiasm. However, in terms of maintaining local order, they have caused trouble. They constantly searched for the money of the locals and sat down on all kinds of major events. In the end, the government was very troubled by what they did. These are not things they can do.

"Maybe this time is different. I heard that the plan above will also train some local officers to become soldiers, so they can be promoted to officers. In this case, it will give those Mengla people a lot of enthusiasm for promotion. After all, we There is a bigger enemy in the north, occupying the Prussian country." The supervisor said.

"No matter what? To put down the riots, we are in charge of the economy. These things are not something we can manage." The manager feels that these things are very troublesome. Anyway, he is unwilling to participate in it. The problem of funding has been greatly improved. The solution. As for the army, that is the government's business.

Port Seth.

Inside Guo Xiang's office.

"Who is this Ptolemies?" Guo Xiang asked his assistant, he looked at the report sent from the front.

"Sir, he said that he is a senior diplomat from Seth, and his main purpose is to negotiate with us. He believes that there may be some misunderstandings between the two countries. They hope to alleviate it with us and explain this clearly. Misunderstanding." The assistant explained.

"What's the misunderstanding? They fight as they want, and if they want to make peace, they see that they can't beat us, so they take such peaceful measures?" Guo Xiang said impatiently.

"Yes, sir, I also think so. After all, the bank we have caused to them is relatively large. A considerable number of their soldiers cannot withstand such a large amount of pressure. They cannot tear our defensive circle, but at the same time They also need us to provide goods. They said that they can give certain benefits in terms of commercial taxation. Of course, commercial taxation is inevitable." The assistant explained.

"I also want to make peace with them, but the truth is that it is impossible. They have already done something to us. Now their conditions are only to reduce some of the tariffs, and some of them. How much will they reduce? Is it the same as at the beginning? Report Among them, they said. It's just a 25% reduction on the current basis, but their tax revenue is still very high, and our products here are still very disadvantageous." Guo Xiang said.

This is the plan of the Seth people. They tentatively launched an offensive. The purpose of this offense is not a test. They think they have enough ability to drive the Koreans into the sea. In contrast, they think the Koreans will do it. They are apprehensive. After all, they know that South Korea does not have many troops here. In terms of military strength, they have an absolute advantage. But in such a situation, they cannot drive the Koreans out of the sea, because they cannot shake South Korea at all. Human defensive positions, on the contrary, they themselves lost a lot of troops. This is definitely a military mistake.

There are two factions in Seth. The main battle faction believes that it should continue to fight. After all, the advantage of fighting is that they can get more benefits from the Koreans. But they need more troops. In addition, they need more money to buy arms in order to support such a war. However, Seth is very disgusted with the high cost of arms. At this time, their lord and The faction has a certain upper hand. They believe that as long as they reduce some taxes, the Koreans will have peace again. In this case, peace will bring trade, which will greatly promote the increase in taxation. On the one hand, it will increase military expenditure and increase. Expenses, and on the other hand is to reduce expenses and increase income. This is the best choice for the Seth people. They decided to maintain peace with the Koreans. In this way, after a period of fighting, they decided Peace, after all, it will not do them any good.

So this is what happened, but the attitude of the Koreans is very determined.

"If we accept such conditions, we have no meaning. The above sent us a large number of bombing airships here, and we even used the airships. Should we accept the conditions that they should have belonged to us in the first place? The Seth people dream. Let’s fight and continue to fight. Our condition is that tariffs are zero. And open more trade ports. At the same time, we hope that the other party can let our funds enter them and build railways. The railways must be repaired. To what they call Baghdad. No. It should be in Babylon or something." Guo Xiang said. For Baghdad, this is what the Koreans think they are. In fact, the other side’s capital is Babylon, but no one has been there before, and no one knows what a place it is. This is a correction that the Seth people gave the Koreans. error.

"Understood. Sir, I will tell the other party our conditions. As long as they don't have any conditions, we will start our military operations." The assistant said to Guo Xiang. Guo Xiang nodded and expressed his great agreement. What he wanted was such an effect, and he didn't care about the thoughts of the Seth people.

South Korea, Xinzheng.

"We have rejected the peace conditions of the Seth people. They have done a very good job." Han Shu said lightly.

"This. Isn't it something we should look at? At the very least, we should make things better for us, which is good." Zhang Liang thinks whether this rejection is a bit sloppy. After all, Zhang Liang also wants to solve it as soon as possible, so as not to put the Korean government's financial funds into trouble.

"At present, Bangla needs to quell the riots, and the same is true in western colonies. If we have to worry about them being ready to move, this will also require an increase in military spending. In addition, the navy needs to build more warships, and the speed of launching has slowed down a lot. This seems to us It's not a good thing either." Zhang Liang said.

"I know, you are worried about financial issues. In fact, I am not worried about such issues. Fortunately, Bangladesh has opened up such a situation on its own. They have absorbed local comprador businessmen to join the parliament, as a member of parliament. In addition, we need to build a new-style Bangladeshi army and let them become part of our military. We promote them, train officers who are loyal to us, and make them the same as us, which is also very good." Han Shu said. For Meng La's move. Han Shu agrees. The entry of comprador merchants has greatly eased South Korea’s financial needs, and this demand has solved a considerable part of their financial problems.

"This is also a way. But letting the Mengla people join in. This seems to be not a good thing for us." Zhang Liang said worriedly.

"I know what you worry about. What's worrying is that our attack is still relying on the Menglais." Han Shu said.

"Yes, Majesty. After all, the Menggla people are locals. If the locals are used too much, it will form a very big situation for us. In that case, our future governance will be difficult. We must consider Solve these people." Zhang Liang said.

"Yes. But you must also be clear about this. What we have to face is the global situation, that is, our expansion will be very big and terrible. Under such circumstances, what else can we have? The choice?" Han Shu reluctantly moved out of the grand strategy. Although Zhang Liang's worry is right, he is worried that the comprador businessmen supported by the Koreans will eventually be replaced by comprador businessmen. This may not be nothing but a possibility. However, what Koreans need to consider is a global strategy, that is, they must expand. They don't have much energy to manage a stable Bangladesh. After all, this is not where they should be managed. This is why they do it. Because the strength of the Koreans is not superfluous.

Under such circumstances, Koreans have no choice. Han Shu has no choice. He can only rely on locals to govern, not Koreans, because Koreans need to expand in more places. In order to allow the colony to expand into more markets and produce raw materials. This is the driving force of South Korea's development. A small Meng La, they can only trade for the advantage of the whole situation on a partial basis.

"I understand." Zhang Liang thought for a while. This is also a helpless choice for South Korea. After all, South Korea is very small. But their colony is extremely large. This is extremely disproportionate.
