The lights in the French concession's governor's mansion were not switched off all night.
"F * ck! What was the Jiang family trying to do? Was he really driven crazy? Killing hundreds of people is a blatant challenge to the authority of our concession. It's a declaration of war against the empire behind our concession! He was just a small clan in Songhu City. What right did he have to be so arrogant?”
The US Governor in Songhu, Kamil, had a ferocious expression on his face as the cigar in his hand smashed onto the ground.
Morriton sat on the chair, his hand supporting his chin as he frowned.
As for the Eagle Country's Governor, he poured himself a glass of red wine with a calm expression. The corners of his mouth even curled up into a smile.
Eagle Settlement was indeed watching the Jiang family's counterattack.
There was no other reason.
In dealing with the Jiang family, their gains were suppressed to the minimum.
With the Jiang and Zhao families gone, the Guizi Empire could control the three major ports in Songhu.
As the initiator of this incident, France must have reached some unspeakable consensus with the Japanese Empire.
If that was all there was to it.
However, the US Governor Camil relied on the US's status as a indebted country in the European War and demanded that the Japanese Empire monopolize 50% of the 70% of the profits from the three ports in Shanghai.
Wasn't this supposed to be used to coax children?
F * ck, everyone took the blame together, but in the end, I ate the least?
Who would be willing to do this?
However, it was naturally impossible to reject him.
After all, there was still 10% left after the remaining 20% was divided equally. It would be a waste not to take it.
Moreover, the three of them were all outsiders in Songhu, so they still needed to be united on the surface.
If he didn't play with them, who knew how the other two families would plot behind their backs in the future.
Therefore, the Eagle Country was really forced to get involved in this mess.
Now that a small family could make the governors of two empires so angry, he was naturally very happy.
He even wanted to praise Jiang Hai Feng.
Good kid! How gutsy! At the very least, it helped him vent his anger.
Just as the three governors were having their own thoughts, there was a knock on the door.
A man who was about 1.7 meters tall walked slowly into the room with his arms crossed in front of him.
Looking at the man, Morridon's gloomy expression suddenly disappeared and turned into a smile.
"This is Major General Ishii Ichiro of the Guizi Empire. He is also the person in charge of the handover of the Songhu Port.”Morriton shrugged and looked at Ishii Ichiro with a smile."Mr. Ishii, you've heard about today's incident. I wonder what your empire thinks?”
Ishii Ichiro raised his head and looked at the governors of the three empires stationed in Songhu. The corner of his mouth twitched violently.
"Hey, three governors, I've heard about the Jiang family's resistance. Our empire is willing to take responsibility for all your losses in this incident. We are willing to pay 50 dollars for each dead spy.”
Fifty dollars?
Morridon and the other two exchanged a glance and sneered.
"Mr. Ishii, oh no, your country is really good at joking. According to your compensation, even if they are all our people, they are only worth about 20,000 yuan. Could it be that your Guizi Empire thinks that our three empires have fallen to such a state?”
There was mockery in the teasing.
Ishii Ichiro bent down without being humble.
"That's not the case. It's just that our empire believes that this is the highest value of those Yan Huang people. This is already our greatest sincerity. After all, there was no shortage of Yan Huang people on this land.”
Morton and the other two frowned.
But no one said anything.
"We can put aside the matter of compensation for now, but how do you think we should deal with this matter, Mr. Ishii? To put it more bluntly, it was how to treat the Jiang family. You should know that they are different from what we thought at the beginning. From the looks of it, they are not just an ordinary family that only does business.”
Ishii Ichiro's eyes flashed, and he cursed in his heart.
He knew very well that these empires were extremely concerned about making money, but it would be extremely difficult for them to contribute.
The Jiang family's sudden counterattack caught them off guard.
There were more than 200 shooters, and according to the information they had gathered in the past few hours, these shooters 'marksmanship was not ordinary. They were definitely not idle killers.
The sound of the bolt being pulled was almost identical. This was something that could only be achieved by a team that had undergone long-term training.
However, they could not reveal the conclusion of their analysis.
Otherwise, these vampires would definitely take the opportunity to raise the price.
"Hey! Your excellencies, we apologize for the error in our intelligence. However, please do not worry. Our empire already has a complete countermeasure.”
Ishii Ichiro raised his head and looked at Morton and the other two. A smile appeared on his face.
Full confidence?
Morriton shrugged.”
Ishii Ichiro chuckled." I don't think you've forgotten the other participant of our collaboration, General Lu Yongxiang.”
Lu Yongxiang?
The guard who was about to be transferred to Songhu City?
"You mean to use them to get rid of the Jiang family?" Morton frowned.”
Ishii Ichiro nodded. According to our Empire's analysis of Lu Yongxiang, his desire for money is extremely great, and it's a small profit that can be obtained at any time.”
"We've already promised him that as long as we get rid of the Jiang family and the Zhao family, we'll give him all the assets we've plundered. With such benefits, it was impossible for him not to be tempted.”
"As the commander of the 10th Northern Division, he is leading his troops into the city. With more than 10,000 people, it should not be difficult to destroy the Jiang family. Moreover, he represented the Wan faction. It was just a small family and could not cause too much of a stir.”
The Wan family?
Letting these Yan Huang people fight their own people?
Upon hearing this, a smile gradually appeared on the face of the US Governor, Kamil.
"What a genius plan! Since that's the case, then can't we have a good night's sleep?”
Morriton turned to look at Kamil, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes.
Did the Americans become stupid from doing business?
Did they really think that money was so easy to earn?
"Mr. Ishii, my people mentioned a problem to me when they reported today. I wonder if your Ghost Empire has expected this.”
Looking at Ishii Ichiro, Morriton picked up a cigar from the cigar box at the side, lit it up, and took a big puff.
Ishii Ichiro frowned.”
Morriton smiled." You should know that the leader of the Qing Gang in Songhu City is the captain of our French concession. He personally led his men there this afternoon."”
"He told me that the gunmen that the Jiang family found today were not ordinary mobs, but professionally trained people. If that's the case, then the Jiang family is most likely backed by a warlord that we don't know about.”
Morriton looked at Ishii Ichiro with a hint of mockery. The corners of his mouth curled up."The Yan Huang people understand the Yan Huang people the best. I have to listen to my Captain Huang. If that's the case, I'm afraid our cooperation can only end here.”
Morriton slowly exhaled a mouthful of smoke and shook his head.
"I think you should know that those warlords are the real money suckers of our empires. The benefits that your empire is offering right now are not enough for us to anger a faction in the Land of Yan Huang.”
Ishii Ichiro's face darkened when he heard this.
"This is impossible! If they really have a faction supporting them, our dynasty's intelligence system would definitely have found it!”
"I seriously suspect that the Captain Huang you're talking about has already been instigated! We request that he be arrested immediately!"
"And Mr. Morriton, have you forgotten our private contract?”
This was the best opportunity for the Guizi Empire to enter Songhu!
They had planned for this for several years.
How could he lose it just like that?
Morriton looked at Ishii Ichiro, who looked a little ferocious, and frowned.
"I told you, the benefits you gave me weren't enough. This is the answer of our empire! As for whether my subordinates have been instigated to defect or not, I don't think your Gui Zi Empire has the ability to give orders yet. Do you really think we don't know that your Guizi Empire has been developing its forces in Songhu City all these years?”
Destroy Huang Jinrong and let the territory of Songhu be divided up by the Devil Empire?
He was not that stupid.
"Our empire is willing to give you some time to think. I will have someone send the specific conditions to your residence. If you agree, our cooperation will continue. If you don't agree, I think this matter can end here. You should know that without our agreement, your empire won't be able to get the three docks.”
Morriton laughed coldly and put out the cigar in his hand.
As soon as he said that, Camil and the Eagle Country's Governor subconsciously looked at each other.
It was like a stone hammer.
As expected, there was a secret deal!
We're all businessmen. If you say that, we won't be polite!
Ishii Ichiro noticed that the three of them were looking at him with increasingly strange gazes, and his entire face darkened.
This was too much of a bully!
Where was the friendship? Flipping over just like that?
