I have to say that the Japanese are still very honest and kind.

They did not make any unreasonable thoughts, but chose North Korea and Ryukyu very carefully, and helped the Hao family to inquire about Liaodong.

It can be seen that the Japanese had already opened their eyes to the world and knew their own weight.

However, the Japanese's request seemed ridiculous to Hao Zheng. This was clearly a detriment, so Hao Zheng ignored it.

However, the Japanese envoys were quite dedicated. When they saw that the Hao family ignored him, they came to the door again. This time they never mentioned Liaodong, but only said that they had been with Korea since ancient times, and the blood of Ryukyu was thicker than water.

The so-called Ryukyu is not the Little Ryukyu Kingdom, but the Great Ryukyu, and the Great Ryukyu is Taiwan.

The Japanese are different from Lang Son. Lang Son has a broad market and has experienced primitive accumulation. The skills and market are relatively mature. On the other hand, the biggest problem of the Japanese is that although they are taking a different approach, they have a bit of a hammer in the east and a hammer in the east. The market will not be stable in the future through one hammer trading. Therefore, they have a great desire for market and raw materials supply. This time, they are just hoping to get a share of the market in terms of dividing the market.

Hao Zheng couldn't help laughing and continued to ignore it.

The Japanese obviously did not understand that Hao Zheng represented the will of the entire Langshan chaebol. These Japanese counterfeit goods from Langshan were inferior as good and used low prices to impact the Eastern market, which caused many chaebols to suffer losses. In recent years, they have criticized the Japanese people everywhere, and some newspapers even jokingly called them inferior Japanese monkeys.

In a sense, it is understandable that the Japanese are like this. If backward nations want to make progress, they will naturally imitate and do their best to accumulate primitive capital. But from Lang Son's standpoint, this alien is very annoying. Everyone is doing business. You are just going to run workshops, and everyone is providing raw materials, and you actually produce inferior goods to compete. Taking money is like killing parents. How could Hao Zheng have any negotiations with the Japanese?

Although the Japanese were disappointed, they were not in a hurry to leave.

But at this time, the Mu family finally arrived.

The person who came to deliver the letter in person was named Mu Ming, who was a brother of Mu Sheng. As soon as the Mu family arrived, news spread, so that the entire Lang San caused a sensation.

The news was deliberately spread, intentionally. If the Mu family wanted to discuss some conditions in secret, this was the capital of the price cut. After all, once this matter was spread, it would be known in Jinling seven or eight days later that if the Mu family wanted to ask for the price on both ends, once the court regarded it as an affair, the retreat would be completely cut off.

This is of course the vicious plan of the aides in the royal palace.

There are special institutions in the royal palace responsible for instigating rebellions. Most of these people are unsuccessful scholars. Their special work is to gather the Military Intelligence Department and the intelligence agencies under the royal palace to analyze and study the civil and military officials of the imperial court. Everyone's preferences, their personalities, and their usual social relationships are within the control of these people.

For example, this time, almost everyone in the Mu family analyzed and discussed the Mu family. Mu Ming is a branch of the Mu family and is considered a very distant relative. However, the conclusions everyone has come to are different. Mu Ming has studied with Mu Sheng since he was a child and has a very good relationship with Mu Sheng. Although he is not very prominent in the Mu family, the Mu family has not even recommended him. So far, he has only obtained a thousand household titles in the Mu family, but this person is definitely Mu Sheng's confidant. It can be said that he almost represents Mu Sheng's will.

This person came. He didn't seem to be very sincere because he was only the outsiders of the Mu family. He thought that this was the Mu family's plan to leave a way out for him. Once he was known to the court and had not reached an agreement with the Hao family, he could have cut off his arm. He only said that this person was just a distant relative of the Mu family, and he was arguing that everything was his own proposition.

However, this person's weight is sufficiently qualified to represent Mu Sheng.

The news came out of the Hao family, and many forces in the dark of Lang San began to take action.

Whether it was the Jinyiwei, the local military intelligence department in Lang San, or even some Japanese, or other spies from other Western countries, they were all crazy about inquiring about something. Just yesterday, the Military Intelligence Department captured more than a dozen personnel from the Jinyiwei. These people had actually been lurking in Lang San and had been controlled by the Military Intelligence Department, but they were not in a hurry to take action. Now they suddenly took action and arrested thirteen people directly. Then they were tortured and asked them to recruit their accomplices. On the other side, his gangsters were heard and were already scared to escape.

Obviously, this is what the royal palace wants.

They neither hoped that these people would spy on anything, nor hoped that the Mu family's personnel had arrived in Lang Son could be immediately spread through them.

At present, a peace talks are also in full swing.

From beginning to end, Hao Zheng never came forward, and everything was carried out by his subordinates.

Hao Zheng is neglected, so he naturally has elements of playing hard to get.

However, at this time, Deng Xiang, a senior military officer from the Military Intelligence Department, urgently asked for a meeting.

…………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

Hao Zheng seemed a little tired, but he still met Vice Minister Deng of the Military Intelligence Department. Deng Xiang immediately handed over a document to Hao Zheng.

After seeing this, Hao Zheng frowned and raised his head and said, "The Japanese also went to Jinling? What did they go to Jinling for?"

"Your Highness, it seems that this Japanese man wants to get involved."

Hao Zheng sneered: "What can they get involved in? It seems that you are thinking too much."

Deng Xiang shook his head and said solemnly: "This is not necessarily the case. After the reform, the Japanese secretly accumulated strength and used North Korea and Hebei as their hinterlands to dump them. The swords and firearms they forged were not as good as Lang San, but they were still quite good. In addition, the Japanese are martial and are best forbearing. Just like our Lang San, there are tens of millions of Dingkou, but recruiting 500,000 troops is already at the limit. However, the Japanese are different. Now they build ships and develop trade everywhere, and there are many military ships. Their Dingkou is only 15 million, and although they are less than half as much as Lang San, they recruit millions of troops, but it is not necessarily impossible to recruit millions. The Japanese are many people with few lands and ambitions. Since the reform, they have a more glimpse of the mainland. If they take the opportunity to help each other with the court, they will use this opportunity to send troops to help, I am afraid... it will not be beneficial to us."

"Your Highness, the Military Intelligence Department believes that this matter must be taken seriously, otherwise once the matter reaches the worst, it will be too much regret."

Hao Zheng narrowed his eyes and said, "So what do you mean?"

"Recruit the Mu family immediately, and the conditions can be relaxed. The Mu family hopes that it will still be in Yunnan. There is nothing wrong with it for the time being. The main force of the Langshan Army must meet with General Tseng in Shaoguan as soon as possible, go north as soon as possible, and take down Jinling in one fell swoop, so as to prevent the night from getting too long and dreaming."

Hao Zheng held the case in hand and pondered for a moment before saying, "Okay, that's it." (To be continued)
