Chapter 195 Meiji Restoration (11)

Chapter 185 meiji restoration (11) Iton Bowen opened the side door and was confused and excited after being buried by a pile of blueprints

Huang xuan and Pawn Wei rode their ponies to the capital

The capital city is in the northeast of Osaka

From the map, the business circles of the two cities can almost be connected

Even in 1868, the workshops here developed rapidly

The blacksmiths that produced the knives and armor used by the warriors, the shops that produced and sold firearms, There were also various businesses serving the royal family and the shogunate, which were well regulated and prosperous for a while

The imperial residence of the capital city was the present imperial palace of japan

From the Nara era to the meiji restoration, it was the residence of all the previous emperors

In the eyes of the chinese, it was a simple building complex, a simple moat, a simple inner wall, and a simple palace gate

After half a circle around the outer city of the palace, he encountered a slightly tricky problem

Laying a biological bomb outside the city was not enough to guarantee its power, and the opening time of the palace gate had passed, so he could not use a camouflage cover to enter the city, nor could he find a hotel in the city - that was also required to have a guarantor and household registration

After a night's sleep in the woods outside the city, Huang Xuan turned into the palace with Lorraine's help and took advantage of the food delivery vehicle

However, he was extremely disappointed by the simplicity of the imperial residence in the capital

In his opinion, this was simply a dilapidated small villa area

After the abuse of the shogun generals over the past generations, the emperor's resentment was probably deep, and the imperial city was gray

Yesterday evening, Huang Xuan walked around the imperial city and felt very fast, but he didn't think so much

It took a few minutes to get to the other side, and he couldn't help but ask, "Lorraine, how big is this place

""700 Meters wide in the east and west, 1300 meters long in the north and south

The perimeter is 900,000 square meters, and the imperial residence is 110,000 square meters

" He almost fell to the ground and said," is it the same size as the The huang family house

"" It might still be bigger

There are nine famous doors, ten halls, and nineteen halls

"" It's a medium-sized pedestrian street

It's a shopping mall above the fourth floor

It can't be compared

" Huang Xuan shook his head as he dropped a 50g biological bomb on the ground and rubbed his feet against it

" Is this the main hall

" He was referring to a wooden building with long eaves that was no more than 300 square meters in front of him

" That's right

" He shook his head again, feeling that using a 50g bomb was a waste

In order to ensure that the explosion would cover the entire palace, even the garden Huang Xuan did not let it go

Although according to his idea, the bomb should be detonated at midnight, who knows if Mr

Meiji was meeting the little palace girl in the woods with a lonely shadow at that time

There are more than enough biological bombs to ensure good results

For every 500-square-meter biological bomb weighing 50g, 110,000 square meters would require a total of 11kg of explosives

In addition, in places with more complicated terrain and in the vicinity of buildings, the amount of explosives used was less than 20kg, and the remaining 80kg

It was more than twice as powerful as the atomic bomb in Hiroshima

The qingliang hall was the emperor's dormitory

Huang Xuan had specially prepared a 200g biological bomb, which was carefully buried in the center of the hall

It was said that when it exploded, the instantaneous temperature within a 300-meter range could reach 6000 degrees, similar to the surface of the sun

In just two seconds, all the oxygen in the vicinity of 100 meters would be burned off

In theory, a 3 meter thick lead plate or steel plate would not work here

Pawn Wei, on the other hand, liked the structure of the qiong island, which was built in imitation of ancient chinese legends

The lake represented the sea, and the white" colored" rubble on the palace floor looked like a beach

The hero jumped in the rubble for a while and crushed countless stones

He only hoped that the guards would not think that the elephant had passed through

After dealing with the imperial residence of the capital, Huang Xuan took another tour around the capital and the two nearby cities

Most of the so-called public houses lived nearby

Although their influence was weaker than that of the martial arts, they were always an important political force

The success of the meiji restoration in japan had something to do with the meiji emperor

Although the shogunate was unpopular, only the emperor was the orthodox place of japan

Therefore, before january 1868, because Dechuan Jubilant returned to the emperor, the army lost its legal basis and once ruled by the shogunate

If it weren't for the general's unwillingness to be alone, the rest of the story would be hard to say

In addition, the japanese name system was a very important factor in the Edo period

From the defeat of tokugawa's qing xi, it could be known that after the victory of the fall army, several famous soldiers rebelled against the" chaos" and even became independent kings

Once the whole of japan lost its desired ruler, the meiji emperor and his heirs, or the shogun general and his heirs, the history of japan in the second half of the 19th century would need to be revised

Huang Xuan returned to Osaka on the fifth day of his arrival at p 1219

With dozens of famous businessmen in Osaka, there were not only Mitsui Gaosui and Iton Bowen, but even the famous person who had just returned from the front line: great long pauliton

After the success of the meiji restoration, he was one of the three great heroes of the restoration

Most importantly, he was also a diplomat who could be listed as the top three in japan during this period

Of course, he wasn't familiar with him, but if Lorraine mentioned the name, it would represent To Be Able To Stop profits

Xiao Huang glanced at long pauliton with a strange look and looked at a bearded man next to him

This is an englishman

" Mr

Paul hopes to build a steel plant in japan

We have agreed

He will guide our construction work

" Mitsui Gaosui could not help but explain when he saw huang xuan's confused eyes

" Paul weimar

" The british introduced themselves

Huang Xuan said in english as if he were the master

Iton Bowen looked at Huang Xuan in surprise

After studying in london for many years, he could naturally hear Huang Xuan's exact london accent

As for him, his spoken language was not that standard

Paul smiled and shook hands with huang xuan

" Thank you

"" Are you a diplomat

" Huang xuan asked in a certain tone

He did not believe in any nonsense to guide the construction work

The drawings he gave to the japanese were probably incomprehensible to the british themselves

The design of the open hearth was still in the hands of the german company, and was unwilling to show off easily

Besides, Lorraine had been monitoring the port of Osaka, and there had been no british steamers coming and going recently

Paul was embarrassed

He didn't expect Huang Xuan to be so direct

Mitsui Gaosui quickly tried to smooth things over

" Huang Officer, we still have some questions

"" Is the money ready

There are four days left

I don't have time to delay

" Huang xuan said quite righteously, but in fact, he could be righteously

The reason why Mitsui Gaosui and big brother pauliton created such a big battle was to get the drawings in Huang Xuan's hands earlier, because the british had promised to pay half the money as long as the contents were all right

Four british engineers were already waiting at the port dock, waiting to authenticate the drawings

Although he did not know this, he was very familiar with the business habits of japan in later generations

After all, japan was china's third largest trading partner, and the Huang's fund and the japanese tycoons also had a myriad of ties, not in a short period of time to be able to make clear

Whether it was Zhang Xinyi or Huang Jindi, there were many things to say about japan

Iton Bowen thought that huang xuan was an official of the qing dynasty, so he used his method of dealing with the officials of the qing dynasty

Iton Bowen muttered and stood up from behind Mitsui Gaosui

" Huang Officer, as you can see, our country has just been through a great war

The military expenditure is quite large and it is difficult to support

" Like japan's foreign policy during the meiji period, senior officials usually had to leave room for manoeuvre, so when talking about foreign affairs, they tried to be vague and described in detail by the middle and lower levels

Once there was a problem, senior officials would pretend to be innocent and assume responsibility by others, so as to continue negotiations

Huang Xuan was not familiar with this famous person, but he was very familiar with this kind of negotiation method in japan

He remembered that when the Sifang group first started to do business with japan, the two negotiations broke down, both of which were carried out by low-level officials

Bowing and apologizing, he finally signed a very favorable contract with the Sifang group

Without the presence of the british, Huang Xuan might have considered lowering the asking price a little more, but Paul's diplomatic status showed that the drawings he produced must have been of great value

He insisted," 800,000 taels of silver, of which abalone with a minimum of 400,000 taels of silver can be replaced by various fish and livestock

"" Huang Officer

" Iton Bowen shouted quickly

" If you don't agree, just pretend that this never happened

" In the last sentence, huang xuan used a very japanese way of saying it

Iton Bowen stopped talking

After a long time, pauliton looked at Mitsui Gaosui and said," Huang Officer, there are so many supplies

We need time to raise them

"" Five days

" Huang Xuan raised his finger and said," five days later, the deal ends automatically

And

" He paused and continued," I want to see half of it now

Of course, you can get half of it

" Mitsui Gaosui stood silently in the crowd, as if there was no one there

This time it was Iwasaki Yataro who stood up

He pursed his lips and his moustache gently rose and fell

He said in a heavy voice, almost begging," Huang Officer

"" No need to say it again

" Huang xuan shook his hands

He was still unwilling to take out all the drawings

He was still worried that the little japanese would be" wild" and planned to take them away

Although he was not afraid of robbery, once the two sides tore their faces, they would always reduce the profits

In other words, they would give him a thousand or eight hundred people

It was also difficult to snatch away millions of taels of silver, let alone meet his needs, so proper communication was necessary, but it was also necessary to ensure benefits

Perhaps the british had satisfied the japanese vanity, or perhaps Paul's promise had strengthened Mitsui Gaosui's confidence

He finally coughed and said," Huang Officer, then 800 thousand taels of silver

There are a lot of supplies at the dock now

Let's go over there and talk

"" That's how it feels

" Huang Xuan chuckled in his heart and waved for dianwei to come over

He pulled seven or eight horses, all bought nearby, each carrying heavy blueprints, as if tang sanzang had gone home
