After Felipe IV finished speaking, it was Xie Xuelong's turn to be silent.

It turned out that he was not the only one who saw the situation clearly, and the other party was not an idiot either.

Why did he come to this foreign country with his fleet all the way?

After all, it's for profit.

To put it more simply, it is money.

The expenses of the army need money, the life of the people needs money, and the development of the country needs money.

Daming's population will grow explosively with the spread of His Majesty's various policies. In His Majesty's words, if there are not enough resources, they will rob, steal, and cheat.

Between countries, there is no need to talk about integrity, only interests.When it's time to make a move, make a move, and when it's time to turn your face, turn your face.

Although it sounds like a rogue, as long as you can bring enough benefits to your country and people, being a rogue is fine.

By the way, what is the word His Majesty said?

Oh!

Great powers!

Become a well-deserved power in the world that no one dares to challenge.

Felipe IV knew that the dragon did not speak, and knew that his words had played a certain role.

Then he spoke:

"The prosperity of Ming Dynasty is not as strong as it used to be. Your Majesty the Emperor is a great man, and after taking the throne, he made many drastic reforms, and it is the situation of Daming today. But this does not mean that one hundred or two hundred years later, You can continue to be so strong. No one can avoid the change of times and the change of dynasties! As a big eastern country, you seem to be caught in some strange cycle.

In your territory, no dynasty can rule for more than 300 years. Have you found the reason?

I don't know how you think about this issue, but I think it has something to do with the system.During this time, I have been studying your history.If you, Emperor Chongzhen, hadn't ascended the throne, it would be hard to imagine how long you would last.The Tatars outside the pass almost crushed and beat you.Your officials are seriously corrupted, your soldiers can't even eat enough, your people's lives are miserable, and a huge empire is like an old man in his dying years, which will collapse at any time.

But for some reason, Emperor Chongzhen unexpectedly made this soon-to-be-destroyed empire glow with strong vitality again!I have to say, this is a miracle!And your Emperor Chongzhen single-handedly created this miracle.

I admire him very much, and I am eager to have the opportunity to meet him.

In fact, you are right, our country is not in a very good state at this time.I am also thinking about how to take a different path like you, and lead the country to become prosperous and strong in the face of difficulties and obstacles.But in the final analysis, it is still too difficult, and there are too many obstacles.However, your arrival gave me an opportunity.A chance to change Spain, a chance to keep Spain at the top.

Master Xie, tell me about your conditions! "

After a few words, Felipe IV spoke impassionedly, bluntly expressing his inner thoughts.

But true and false, or how much is true and how much is false.

Only he can know.

"As expected of the king who leads a huge empire, I really admire His Majesty's mind! I have imagined countless possibilities for negotiation, but I never thought that His Majesty would be so straightforward. Since His Majesty is like this, then I will not make rounds anymore. .

...Your Majesty has also seen that our Daming fleet is powerful enough to sweep everything away.But after all, force cannot be turned into money, nor can it be turned into food.As long as we can cooperate with His Majesty, our fleet can help you militarily, allowing you to ease the pressure of the war.But at the same time, you also have to promise us some small requests so that we can gain more benefits in the West. "

Now that Felipe IV had opened up his heart, Xie Xuelong didn't intend to hide it anymore, so he spoke some half-truths and half-false words.

"It's normal to have requirements. Cooperation is to get what we need. You put forward your needs, we put forward our conditions, and the combination of the two sides can be mutually beneficial and long-term. Tell me, what do you want?"

"It's like this. Before coming, our Majesty thought for a long time before we came up with a feasible preliminary cooperation intention plan. I have already asked Xiao Wu to translate it into your language. Please read it, Your Majesty."

Xie Xuelong took out a large piece of paper from his arms, unfolded it carefully, and planned to present it to Philip IV for viewing.

Felipe IV asked his subordinates to bring over his preliminary cooperation intention plan, and before he looked at it carefully, his scalp began to tingle.

Too much.

It's densely packed with words.

Felipe IV glanced and saw one of them.

Open the port of Veracruz, allow Ming merchants to trade freely, and allow them to have their own armed forces.

I am Nima.

What the hell is this request! ?

It's fine if you are allowed to do business, but you have to be allowed to bring soldiers?

How could this be done?

Simply give the port to you directly.

I can't agree with this one, the next one.

Set aside an area in the port city as a lease of Ming Dynasty. In the concession, Ming merchants can freely trade, build factories, and recruit workers.Ming people in the lease enjoy all due rights and also enjoy diplomatic immunity.No matter what crime is committed, it can only be tried by the yamen in the lease, and Spain has no right to arrest or interrogate.At the same time, the Spanish army is not allowed to enter the lease without permission, otherwise it will be regarded as an attack on Ming Dynasty.in the concession

Felipe IV is going crazy.

What kind of concession is this? It's too fucking outrageous.

Is this still called a concession?This is considered to have set aside a piece of land for them to come here to be kings!

No, I can't agree to this one, the next one.

Open all the colonies belonging to Spain, allowing Ming people to freely trade, mine, open up wasteland, and plant locally

I'll cross you a cross.

This one is even more outrageous.

Cooperating with the empire we have worked so hard to build, let you enjoy the benefits for nothing, do business if you want to do business, and mine if you want to mine?

Why?

Felipe IV put down the plan in his hand, and slowly looked at Xie Xuelong with a calm face.

"Master Xie, is this condition serious?"

"That's natural. I came here from a long distance. Could it be that I was just joking?"

"I really think Master Jie is joking. These terms are too harsh, aren't they?"

"Hard? I think it's fine."

"But I feel bad."

"If you think it's not good, you can bring it up. It's not that there is no room for negotiation."

"Well, this one, in the concession, Mingren"

"No, this should not be done. Your Majesty said, this is our bottom line."

"Then this one, open up"

"No! You can't hang this one either. Your Majesty said it. This is also our bottom line."

"That"

"no"

Felipe IV pointed out several points in a row, but Xie Xuelong refused to agree to any of them, and said that they were all Daming's bottom line.

This made Felipe IV very angry!

"Master Xie, didn't you say you can discuss it!? Why can't you change one of them!? Ah?"
