Chapter 1590: The Deal is Reached

His father was a Protestant who, unable to survive in Europe, was forced to immigrate to America.

When they immigrated to America, it was also winter, and it was extremely cold.

America at that time was still very backward, filled with jungles everywhere, and there was no place for these miserable immigrants to take shelter from the wind and rain.

It was the indigenous inhabitants here, the Indians, who taught them how to build fires to keep warm in the cold winter.

And how to obtain food in the cold winter.

These kind and friendly Indians could be said to be the benefactors who saved his family.

Therefore, Deng En had a very favorable impression of them.

However, later on, his so-called motherland, France, committed unforgivable crimes against these simple and honest Indians after setting foot on this land.

Every time he thought of it, Deng En felt very disgusted that he was French.

As a gesture of gratitude, most of the people in his office were Indians, with only a very small number from other ethnic groups.

Deng En watched these Indian children playing, seeing them imitating the way those who robbed the French Bank and Zhian-suo walked.

They were as arrogant as heroes.

Seeing this scene, Deng En was suddenly stunned.

Why would these Indians view these robbers as heroes?

Although the people who robbed the French Bank and Zhian-suo did indeed look like heroes resisting France in the eyes of the Indians.

However, this was not enough for those little children to imitate.

The French government now strictly prohibited the spread of such information.

Moreover, very few Indians had ever attended school.

Without having attended school, how did they know about these things?

Unless someone told them.

Thinking of this, Deng En considered a possibility.

"France still has a second force... a force belonging to the Indians!"

Thinking of this, Deng En was ecstatic; many questions were all solved for him at this moment.

Why launch two robberies, and why were the places robbed the Bank and the Zhian-suo.

It was not at all what those people said, that this was a slap in the face to French colonial rule.

This was because only those two places would have the weapons and money that the force needed most.

The Indians originally lived in dangerous jungles; they were all masters of survival, and his father had also learned the skills of tracking and hunting animals from the Indians back then.

To this day, Deng En still remembered it vividly; he had once witnessed how the Indians killed a lone wolf.

As for why they didn't flee immediately after the robbery, it was to observe the reaction speed of these French police officers and the speed of their horses.

Deng En felt his heartbeat quicken and his breathing grow heavy; although he still didn't know where the base camp of these Indians was.

But now he had already made a breakthrough.

As long as he continued to investigate along this case, he believed he would definitely be able to obtain the answer he wanted.

Thinking of this, Deng En was incredibly excited.

He couldn't wait to continue the investigation.

Deng En looked at those Indians with a fanatical gaze, but suddenly stopped the thought of wanting to continue the investigation.

Looking at those Indians again, what would happen if he told the police chief this news?

According to the consistent style of the French, at least half of the Indians in the city would be convicted because of this.

And for these Indians, the outcome awaiting them because of this matter might be death.

He didn't know why these Indians needed to do this, but in this matter, he hoped the Indians could succeed.

Thinking of this, Deng En decided to keep this news completely hidden.

At this time, Egypt.

Sure

enough, just as Jiang Xuan expected, not long after, Dike had already returned to the negotiating table.

This time, Dike looked at Jiang Xuan with a gaze so cold it was frightening, as if he wanted to eat him at any moment.

Nashadier looked at Dike's gaze and raised an eyebrow.

Immediately, Dike was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.

He stood up with a start, staring at Nashadier with extreme vigilance.

"Nashadier, what do you want to do!"

Nashadier looked at Dike with interest and said indifferently: "Nothing, I'm just taking a look at you."

Dike changed seats and sat down; every time he saw this smile of Nashadier's, his own body would ache faintly.

Thinking of what happened before, Dike was burning with rage; he swore he would definitely make Nashadier pay the price.

Jiang Xuan looked at Dike calmly and said indifferently: "Mr. Dike, has your Britain considered it clearly?"

Dike snorted coldly; originally, for the four mineral veins, Dike would rather die than give them to Long Yan.

But he reported this matter to George III, and the reply he received was to give them to Long Yan.

This was not Britain softening its stance, but rather that in the recent period, the actions of the Long Yan army at sea had been truly too terrifying.

Their Supply Ship had sunk several more French warships, and it looked completely effortless.

This made Britain very worried; they had to speed up the progress of developing the Dreadnought-class Battleship.

Only by possessing higher-level weapons could they in Britain feel at ease.

After all, Britain was a country composed of multiple islands; once the military power at sea was weak...

It is very easy for foreign enemies to exploit their equipment advantage to launch a crushing offensive, which is something they absolutely do not want to see.

This would put Britain in a very passive position.

Therefore, when George III saw the latest Supply Ship developed by Longyan, he panicked completely; they had to speed up their progress.

They cannot let Longyan deploy this level of warship into future battles.

And the only Method to deal with this problem is for you to also possess weapons of the same level as your enemy.

After receiving the order, Dike could only keep a cold face and come to negotiate with Jiang Xuan again.

Jiang Xuan looked at Dike's unhappy expression and laughed quite happily, saying: "Dike, isn't your Britain now known as the 'Empire on which the sun never sets'? Are you still short of these four mines?"

Dike snorted coldly: "Cut the nonsense and sign the agreement quickly."

"These two ports belong to us, Britain, and your Longyan Giant Steam Engine will continue to be traded with us."

Jiang Xuan glanced at him, looked at the agreement, and signed his name on this document.

Dike had already signed his name; there were two copies of the contract, with each side holding one.

Jiang Xuan looked at the contract and said with a soft laugh: "Happy cooperation."

Hearing this, Dike snorted coldly, turned around, and left.

He had to reclaim these two ports as soon as possible; with these two port cities, their Britain would have a certain degree of influence in the Mediterranean Sea.

At the very least, when facing naval battles, they would no longer face the awkward situation of their own warships having nowhere to dock.

Jiang Xuan, on the other hand, sent people to take over the four mines that Britain had agreed to trade, all of which were located within Egypt.

It was just that their locations were a bit remote, very close to their old rival, the colony of France!
