People in the Republic of China start from building a top power

If you agree to our conditions, the status of the Chinese will be improved, and we will be able to speak among the little devils, and the cooperation between us can start. "

"Well, I wish our cooperation success in advance."

Nelson stood up and shook hands with Wang Dehai.

Wang Dehai also extended his hand to shake each other.

Speaking of now, the cooperation between the two parties has actually been reached.

Although Su Yun and Wang Dehai pretended to be perfunctory and left each other alone, in fact, the progress of the matter has always been under Su Yun's control.

Including these two meetings, Su Yun is equivalent to writing the script in advance.

Therefore, Su Yun is very confident that the other party will definitely agree to his conditions.

As for what kind of industrial area was invaded and why the little devil didn't have a lot of say, these were just talk of the scene.

Nelson knew this very well in his heart, so he didn't care.

After leaving Huayin Group that day, Nelson returned to their foothold in Jinling and passed today's events back to the family.

In a building of the Locke family in the United States, John D. Locke browsed the information in detail after receiving a telegram from Nelson.

In the telegram, Nelson said that their meeting with Huayin Group went well.

However, if the other party proposes that the United States must abolish the Chinese Exclusion Act, it will start formal cooperation with their eight major consortiums.

Seeing this, John Locke's eyes became serious.

This matter involves congressional legislation, and it cannot be decided by the Locke family alone. The eight major families must get together and make a joint decision.

Putting down the telegram, John Locke called his butler to his side.

This butler is not Felice, but the chief steward of the entire (good) family. Felice is just an ordinary butler, and his current role is actually more like Nelson's assistant.

................

Before I knew it, the book was almost 200 million words long, and I felt that time passed so quickly.

In the comment section, many readers have raised some questions, and some people have been talking nonsense.

For those I ignore, people who understand understand, and also know why some things don't appear.

Some people don’t know how to pretend to understand, and it’s useless to tell him more things, so I don’t bother to explain anything, I don’t think it’s necessary, he doesn’t understand, no matter how much you say, it’s still useless.

Say it now too!The book has now reached almost 200 million words, and the real climax of the book is coming. Looking back on the past six months, I feel a lot of emotion in my heart.

The next climax is coming, and I hope to bring readers a different reading experience! .

Chapter 696: Capital's Ruthless Pursuit of Profit

"Sir, what are your orders?"

Hearing John Locke's greeting, his butler immediately came to take orders.

John Locke handed him the telegram: "Go and send a telegram to the other seven consortiums, informing them to come here for a meeting, and say that there is something important to discuss."

"Understood sir."

His butler heard the news and went to notify immediately.

As the news reached the hands of the remaining seven consortiums, their respective patriarchs set off to the Locke family's manor.

During this period of time, everyone was worrying about how to make up for the loss, and Huayin Group was their greatest hope at present, and the important task of negotiating with Huayin Group fell on the Locke family.

Therefore, as soon as the news of the Locke family arrived, the other seven consortiums did not neglect, and rushed here immediately after handling the affairs at hand.

About three hours later, the heads of the seven major financial groups arrived.

A group of people sat in the conference hall, with Pierpont and John Locke sitting at the top.

Among the eight major consortia, the Morgan consortium and the Locke family rank in the top three, and Pierpont and John Locke are the heads of these two families, so they have the highest status and the greatest voice.

After a while of courteous exchange, Pierpont asked John Locke: "Two days ago, your Locke family was in charge of negotiating with the Hua Group. How is the progress now?"

The heads of the other six financial groups also listened attentively.

They knew that John Locke asked them to come here today, and it was probably for this matter, so everyone was very concerned.

John Locke pushed the telegram into the center of the table.

"Everyone take a look, this is the news from Nelson.

Previously, he had gone to Huayin Group for the second time to discuss cooperation. This time the negotiation went smoothly, and Huayin Group also gave their conditions.

The other side wants us to abolish the act passed in 1882 and fight for fair treatment and status for the Chinese.

The other party made it clear that if we do this, the cooperation between the two parties can proceed. If we don't agree, Huayin Group will not cooperate with us. "

Everyone present heard the words and began to circulate the telegram.

After reading the contents of the telegram, the patriarchs of the seven major consortiums all showed expressions of thought.

Dupont Barrett, the owner of the Dupont consortium, thought for a while and said, "Have you really confirmed it? Do we have to find a way to abolish this bill before Huayin Group is willing to cooperate with my family? (ajed)"

John Locke nodded: "That's right. My son Nelson personally discussed this. The most important requirement of Huayin Group is this. If we want to cooperate with each other, we must abolish the Chinese Exclusion Act.

If we do not agree, the other party will not cooperate with us. "

After hearing this, the owners of the consortium fell into deep thought again.

In fact, it is not difficult for them to abolish the "Chinese Exclusion Act", but the abolition of this act may cause some public opinion turmoil.

Originally, they lost countless money in this economic war, which also exacerbated the dissatisfaction of many people.

If this bill is repealed again, will it attract criticism from some opponents?

In their position, the attitude of the domestic people is still very important, so they need to think about it.

Seeing everyone pondering, John Locke remained calm.

Pierpont was brooding too, thinking about the same thing.

After a long time, Pierpont said slowly: "Everyone listen to me, we have lost enough in this economic war, and the major consortiums and the consortiums below have lost countless wealth.

It can be said that we have already suffered a complete defeat in this financial war.

But now, our top priority is to make up for our own losses. Only in this way can we make up for the shortfall. "

"Well, well said."

"That's true, I agree."

"Indeed."

……

Listening to Pierpont's words, all the owners of the consortium expressed their approval.

As Pierpont said, making up for the shortfall is what they want to do most at the moment, and only by making up for the loss as soon as possible can the resentment of the domestic people be appeased.

Pierponge continued to add: "And if we can successfully cooperate with Huayin Group, we will definitely get many benefits in the future.

For example, in terms of oil business, Huayin is an Eastern consortium and a well-known large oil importer in the East.

Everyone should know that Huayin Group purchased crude oil from Britain twice, and both times placed orders as high as 1 million yuan.

If we can abolish this bill against the Chinese, we will successfully cooperate with Huayin Group.

Then next time, we can continue to cooperate with Huayin Group and let them buy oil from us instead of giving wealth to the British.

If my guess is correct, Huayin Group was unwilling to buy oil from the United States before, and this bill is also a big reason. "

After Pierpont finished speaking, he looked around at the crowd.

But John Locke immediately agreed.

"I agree with Pierpont's opinion. We cooperate with Huayin Group, not only can pick up the plane to make up for the current loss, but also have the opportunity to obtain more benefits in the future."

He was so positive because Pierpont's rhetoric played into his hands.

The Locke family is mainly engaged in the oil and rubber business. They are the largest crude oil merchants in the United States. If Huayin Group can purchase a large amount of oil from the United States in the future, the Locke family will be the biggest beneficiary.

Compared to John Locke, the owners of other consortiums are hesitant.

Their field of operation is not oil, and they do not see immediate follow-up benefits from Pierpont's words.

Businessmen are always greedy for money.

For these consortiums, it is not enough to just make up for the current deficit.

After making up the shortfall, they still want to earn greater profits, so as to satisfy their appetite.

Seeing that the rest were silent, Pierpont kept scanning them with his eyes.

Pierpont knew what these people were thinking.

If you want to really convince them, you have to let them see more immediate benefits.

So Pierpont looked at the owners of the DuPont consortium and the Cleveland consortium, organized his language a little and said, "I know what everyone wants.

But you should know that the Huayin Group not only needs oil, but now they are developing the shipbuilding and chemical industries in Huaxia, and the fields of military industry and chemical industry are exactly the types of your business.

Huayin Group's partner in these fields has always been Britain, but as long as we abolish the bill and have the first cooperation transaction with the other party, then we will be able to communicate with the other party slowly and attract business in these areas into their own hands. ".

Chapter 697: Benefits—Forever

Listening to these words, the residents who were still hesitating just now couldn't help their eyes flickering.

To put it bluntly, they just want benefits.

Huayin Group is the largest commercial group in the East, with many business fields and huge investment scale. As long as Huayin Group is willing to cooperate in their fields, everyone can get considerable benefits.

After thinking about it, the heads of the family felt that what Pierpont said was quite reasonable.

As long as they have the basis for the first cooperation with Huayin Jitu, they can win these cooperation into their own hands.

At that time, it will be them who will profit from it, not the British people.

Of course, whether the follow-up cooperation can be achieved depends on the abilities of each of their families, but everyone present is old-fashioned, and they are still very confident in the cooperation that will win Huayin Group in the future.

Seeing that everyone was moved, John Locke said at the right time: "Since everyone has no objection, please express your opinion."

Dupont Barrett raised his hand slightly and said: "Actually, it is not difficult to abolish that bill. Our eight consortiums have connections with many members of Congress, and more than 80.00% of these members of Congress are our~people.

During this period of time, we only need to work together and send messages to the congressmen we have contacted so that they can submit an application to Congress to repeal this bill. "

The repeal of bills like this is decided by members of parliament.

The eight consortiums control more than 80.00% of the members of Congress. When the application is submitted, they will be able to obtain at least 80.00% of the votes. Then this bill can naturally be repealed.

"I agree, let's do it."

"I also agree. After we go back, we will notify the MPs we contacted."

After listening to Dupont Barrett's words, all the family owners present agreed one after another. Seeing this, Pierpont and John Locke made a final decision.

"Very well, then, since we all agree, we shall proceed in this way.

At that time, I would like to invite everyone to work together. After the cooperation with Huayin Group is reached, the benefits we get will be far beyond what a bill can match. "

After the day's gathering dispersed, the patriarchs of the eight major consortiums returned to their respective families and began to send news to the councilors they controlled.

At the behest of major consortiums, most members of the U.S. Congress "reached a consensus" at the same time and submitted an application to Congress to abolish the "Chinese Exclusion Act."

These congressmen all used the same reason: This bill is essentially an unfair bill full of racial and regional discrimination, which violates the spirit of equality and freedom that the United States has always pursued.

Not long after the meeting of the heads of the eight major financial groups, there were some rumors in the country.

First, the Capital Post of the United States published a related article, congratulating Dongfang for completing the transformation of the financial standard system.

"As an ancient civilization in the East, Huaxia has recently completed the reform from the silver standard to the gold standard system. This reform will help this ancient country take off, which is gratifying."

"A few days ago, Eastern Huaxia completed the reform of the gold standard system. The financial standard system of this eastern country has become more stable. Our country fully agrees with this. Congratulations to Huaxia for its steady progress and prosperity in the near future."

These contents of the Capital Post are naturally manipulated by the eight major financial groups.

In the current era, although the United States and China do not have any obvious festivals, they do not have much friendship. What's more, because of some problems in the last years of the previous dynasty, the two countries have not been able to deal with each other.

But the Eight Great Consortiums did this to show their sincerity, and at the same time to create momentum for Huayuan.
