Chapter 726

The market outside the window was crowded.

Brandon denied himself: "it's impossible. The people of the Republic are mainly active in England and France. How can they go all the way to Dayu? Moreover, it's not in their interests. These lunatics want to unify the world. It's not their style to cultivate a strong opponent for themselves. "

" the Republic? The secret society in England? " One member said that he had only heard about it. This secret association is very mysterious and only attracts influential people from all countries as members.

Only people like Brandon have contact with them.

Brandon didn't seem to be afraid to mention it, he said: "yes, they are. Now they are said to have a large number of scientists, businessmen and political elites. They have never invited me before, but I refused. Their idea of controlling the world is ridiculous. "

the members looked at each other. Brandon said it easily, but it made the members jump.

Brandon also casually said that he went on to watch the busy market through the window. "No matter what makes this big Chongqing country move closer to Europe, it's not a good idea for Europe. "

after a pause, he turned to the 13 members accompanying him and said," the permanent negotiation mission is located in Qingzhou. You may live here for a long time in the future. Besides being responsible for trade disputes, you should also pay attention to the development of Qingzhou. "

"Yes, count. "Said the members.

Brandon nodded. This time, he was just the leader of the team. He was going to go back to the city in two days.

But before that, he had to take a closer look at Qingzhou, so after dinner in the restaurant, he and his members walked into the streets of Qingzhou to learn about the situation here.

In the imperial study, Xiao Ming corrects the memorial here when he comes back from the discussion hall. At this time, Li San suddenly appears outside the door.

"Your Majesty, the Dutch mission has left Qingzhou City and is going to the workshop area. Do you want to stop them?" Li San looks serious.

"No need." Xiao Ming didn't lift his head. Steam engines and other things had already spread in Dayu. It was unnecessary to hide them from the Dutch mission.

On the contrary, letting these Europeans know their own strength can also help them avoid misjudgment of their strategy.

War is always a bad policy. What can be obtained by showing strength is unnecessary.

”Yes, Emperor. "Li San scratched his head and hesitated for a moment." emperor, we have been watching Cao Zhengyang all this time. We found that he often went to Dengzhou and met three merchants from England. "

" British businessmen? "Xiao Ming frowned," do you know what they are planning? "

" I don't know. They are very cautious, and all the conversations are on British merchant ships. Our people can't get close to them. "

After a pause, Li San continued: "however, our people have been staring at these merchants in Dengzhou, and found that they are very active in Dengzhou, and they have special contact with some big merchants, and even have contacts with the former big families."

Li San's words alert Xiao Ming. In history, Britain did not always conquer a country by force. They also played an ignominious role in some places that were not easy to be watched.

According to historical records, at the beginning of the French Revolution, Arthur young, an Englishman, visited the national assembly in person.

It can be said that the French Revolution had something to do with Britain.

In modern words, in the process of conquering the world with hard power, the British are also using their own soft power to build a world in line with British values.

"Focus on these businessmen and missionaries from the West. If they do something harmful to the state of Dayu, immediately inform the local security office to arrest them. "Xiao Ming said.

Li San nodded, "so what should Cao Zhengyang do? "

" let him continue to jump. It's the so-called "take it in advance, give it in advance". I want to see what the Cao family wants to do in Dayu. "Xiao Ming's eyes narrowed.

Li San's body trembled for a while. He noticed a trace of danger from Xiao Ming's expression. This time, Cao family really wanted to die.

While they were talking, Brandon had already arrived at the workshop area with the mission. When he saw the steam engine driving the metal machinery in the workshop area, Brandon's eyes would fall off.

It's the same with rod. Qingzhou is a strange and familiar place for him. He used to come to Qingzhou City often, but seldom went out of the city.

I didn't expect to see this scene with Brandon this time.

"What is this?" Rod said in surprise that the steam engine drives the machinery like a monster.

"This is a steam engine." The Dutch have now introduced the steam engine from England, so he has seen what the steam engine looks like.

Although the steam engines in Qingzhou are different, they are basically the same, and this thing also uses coal as its combustion material.

"It's amazing. What we're doing, the state of Dayu is also doing." Brandon's eyes seemed to be drawn on the spinning loom.When a group of people were stunned, a person came out of the textile workshop, not others, but Zhu 56.

In winter, the whole village came to help build the workshop house. A year later, the people from the steam engine workshop installed a production line for them with steam engines and textile machines. Now they have put it into production.

Seeing these people with blonde hair and blue eyes, Zhu Wuliu was not nervous, but with a smile. He thought these people were here to do business.

After all, with the development of marine trade, such western merchants often appear in Qingzhou City. He is not surprised.

"Are you here to buy cloth?" Zhu 56 asked with a little expectation.

Since the steam of the workshop started to move and batches of cloth came down from the textile machine, he had produced 1000 pieces of cloth in only half a month.

Now some of the cloth has been bought by the merchant, and there are still 400 pieces in the warehouse. He is worried about how to sell them.

Seeing this, rod took the initiative and said, "we're not here to buy cloth, but where does your steam engine come from? "

ZHU Wuliu immediately became alert, and he showed a defensive look." what are you doing here if you don't buy things? Are you working in detail, trying to learn our craft secretly? "

After that, he suddenly roared, and out of the workshop ran about a dozen people covered with cotton, all of whom were the people of Zhujia village.

"What's the matter with five or six?" the group asked.

"They've been acting like ghosts here for a long time. They must have done it carefully. They must have been arrested and sent to the Yamen."

As soon as they heard that Brandon and his party were meticulous, the young people of zhujiacun rushed up, whining. They didn't care whether these people were Westerners or not.
