In ancient plains, foreign merchants returned to salt fields
Li Qinlai told Ruilin that if Richard wanted to discuss the details of cooperation, someone would need to sign with him on behalf of the Governor of Liangjiang.Ruilin asked Gu Pingyuan to act as the governor of Liangjiang.Ruilin said that after the matter was completed, he would be released to Anhui to live an ordinary life.Gu Pingyuan went to negotiate with Richard and said that Li Qin had mortgaged the contract of the salt field and salt shop and in principle only owned half. If he wanted to control the other half, he still had to look at the bet at the time. After all, the other half of the equity was still in the hands of the Liangjiang Governor's Office.
After Gu Pingyuan and Richard negotiated, they decided to extend the gambling competition for half a year, but they must ensure true and effective accounting, legal competition, and joint confirmation of the results.In order to defeat Richard, Gu Pingyuan went to Huizhou non-stop and ordered the tea merchants that he needed this year's spring tea and asked them not to send it to other places for the time being.Gu Pingyuan immediately went to Shanxi to find Li Zhongdeng, saying that he wanted to transport the purchased goods to India, because India was the main market for the British company behind Xianghe Yangxing. This would shock the mountain and make the British company behind Xianghe Yangxing spit out the salt farm property rights it had eaten.
Gu Pingyuan also found Wu Caishen, and wanted to use Wu Caishen's relationship to borrow a ship from Customs Governor Hurd to use this ship to transport the purchased goods to India.Wu Caishen took Gu Pingyuan to meet with Hart. Gu Pingyuan told Hart that he would use the power of Qing businessmen to fight against the British public behind Xianghe Foreign Trade.
