Chapter 752: Treaty

What Zheng Tong and Feng Tu saw may be the most shocking scene in their lives. A few huge steel ships, at least tens of thousands, even standing on the dock in Bangkok, a few miles away from several giant ships, but still make them feel a sense of oppression.

There were also several spindle-shaped Shenzhou floating in the air, more than ten zhang long, which also gave them a lot of shock. Could it be that the Far East is an immortal from the sky? If it weren't for the immortal family's means, how could such a huge steel giant ship be built to float on the sea without sinking, and how could it be built to float in the air without falling.

Zheng Tong slowly woke up from the horror, he glanced at Feng Tu, who was still demented next to him, and said with a dejected face: "I didn't expect that the Far East actually has such strength, if the king sees it, I don't know how he will feel." ”

Feng Tu said as if he was soulless: "Do you still have to negotiate with the Far East?" Hehe...... This is the real soldier who surrenders without a fight. ”

Zheng Tong smiled bitterly and said: "The king treats me well, even if this trip is a mountain of swords and a sea of fire, we have to go through it." It is said that although the Far East is brutal and fierce, it has a lot of care for the Chinese family, and you and I are both Chinese, and we are both powerless, so the Far East should not embarrass us. ”

Feng Tu nodded when he heard this, and the two immediately called a patrol ship and sailed towards the Far East fleet. When they were halfway through, a Far Eastern dhornboard stopped them, and after asking why, sent them to the flagship of the fleet.

Zhou Cheng was in a meeting with everyone at the fleet headquarters, when the ship's staff officer on duty walked in and reported to Zhou Cheng: "Commander, there are two Chinese officials from Siam, who are waiting on the deck to be summoned. ”

Listened to the report of the staff officer on duty. Zhou Cheng smiled and said: "Let's stop here today, let's go and meet them, see if the King of the Ayutthaya Dynasty in Siam knows how to lift up, if you give them a shameless face, you have to clean them up and let them have a long memory." ”

Everyone listened to him. They all laughed and followed Zhou Cheng to the deck of the No. 1 landing ship. At this time, Zheng Tong and Feng Tu were staying on the deck, waiting there tremblingly.

They were led to this ship, and to their shock, the hull of this big ship was actually made of iron. As soon as they arrived on deck, they were immediately suppressed by the bursts of murderous aura on the ship, and they couldn't breathe.

I saw that the deck was full of heavily armed Far Eastern Army generals, all wearing terrifying grimace masks. There was a fierce aura all over his body. From the time they came to the deck, several guards stood there tall and loose, and after a long time they did not move, which put a lot of pressure on the two of them.

And the other generals on the ship are also like this, it can really be said that they are like the wind and stand like a pine, and the military appearance of the Far East Army on the ship is so majestic, even if the two of them don't know the soldiers, they can also get a glimpse of the leopard. There are some clues to be seen in this.

They had also accompanied King Bassethorn on a tour of the elite of the Ayutthaya army, but compared to the sergeants on this ship. The military posture and military appearance alone are completely two grades, and the momentum is even worse by several streets. Even two laymen can see that this battle is lost without fighting.

While the two of them were standing here thinking nonsense, several generals of the Far Eastern Army stepped onto the deck and came to them with serious faces. The leader of the general smiled and said, "I have military affairs with me, so I have waited for a long time." Please ......"

Zheng Tong and Feng Tu didn't even dare to say anything, and they came all the way to a cabin. After everyone sat down, several orderly soldiers just served tea, and Zhou Chengcheng explained his intention to come here straight to the point.

Zheng Tong and Feng Tu, who were originally nervous, listened to Zhou Cheng's words, and suddenly couldn't cry or laugh. He said in his heart: "You Far East buy grain, do you need to make such a big move, Siam is about to be scared by you, the people in the coastal areas are fleeing to the interior with their families, we came here tremblingly, you actually told us that we just want to buy grain." ”

But they just thought in their hearts, what dare they show? Zheng Tong thought for a while and said: "Since the general wants to buy food, just leave this matter to the old man, and I promise to help the general do it properly." It's just that...... I wonder if the general has any other requirements? You can bring it up together, so that we can go back and report it to the king. ”

After he finished speaking, he and Feng Tu nervously waited for the other party's reply, even if they were fools, they knew that the Far East would make such a big scene, and it would never be as simple as just coming to buy food.

Zhou Cheng smiled, then turned his head and nodded to Li Shaojie next to him. Li Shaojie walked up, took out two documents and handed them to the two. Zhou Cheng explained with a smile: "This is another purpose of our Far East, mainly to sign a long-term trade treaty with Siam, and if we sign this trade treaty, it will be a win-win good thing for us."

The economies of the Far East and the Ayutthaya Dynasty are highly complementary, have great potential for cooperation, and have broad prospects for development. Mutually beneficial economic and trade cooperation has brought tangible benefits to both sides and is in line with the common interests of both sides. In the future, in addition to the broad prospects for cooperation in grain trade, the two sides also have the potential for in-depth development in other fields. Hopefully, the two of you will bring this contract back to King Baseta, and I am sure he will make the right choice. ”

Zheng Tong and Feng Tu both read the contract, and their faces became extremely pale. This is a mutually beneficial treaty, this is simply a treaty that humiliates the Ayutthaya Dynasty.

First, the Far East has a consulate in Bangkok, and in the future Far Eastern citizens in Thailand will only be subject to the jurisdiction of the Far Eastern Consul, and Far Eastern citizens who commit crimes in Siam can only be tried by the Far Eastern Consul in accordance with the laws of the Far East, that is, the Far East has consular jurisdiction.

Second, citizens of the Far East may engage in free trade in any port of Siam, travel freely throughout Siam, freely explore and exploit mineral deposits, reside permanently in Siam, purchase and lease real estate, and trade directly with the Siamese people, without interference from the Siamese Ayutthaya dynasty.

Third, the goods imported into Siam from the Far East are subject to only 3% of the import tax on the commodity price, while the grain and other goods exported from Siam to the Far East are separately fixed and paid at one time. Far Eastern merchants were allowed to import gold and silver into Siam duty-free.

Fourth, the Far East will lease a piece of land on the east bank of the Chao Phraya estuary in Bangkok to establish the Bangkok Economic Development Zone, lease land in Rayong Province to establish a free trade zone, and establish a military port for a period of 99 years. Warships from the Far East have free access to the Chao Phraya estuary, anchored at the ports of the Bangkok Economic Development Zone and the ports of Rayong. (To be continued......)
