"Mr. Kong, thank you, thank you so much!"

Rodman was so excited that he lent the Republic 300,000 pounds, and without any interest, he could put the repayment period five years later, which was simply a timely rain! I can't imagine how enthusiastic the Chinese are!

"Mr. Rodman, as for the loan of one million pounds, this amount is indeed too high, it's not that Qilu Bank or the Huaxia Empire can't get it, but I don't have such power, I'm sorry, but I will want to contact the headquarters of Qilu Bank to report this matter......"

Kong Youlin said apologetically. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

"Mr. Kong, this is enough to gain the friendship of all the people of our Transvaal Republic, we are grateful, God, you are really angels appointed by God to help us!"

"Hehe, Mr. Rodman, you are polite, we are not angels, our faith is not God, anyway, I am most happy to be able to help you, but, it stands to reason that your country's finances will not be so difficult, the wisdom and ability of the Boers are very high, and the commerce here is still very developed, it is impossible for your country to not even be able to solve its financial problems......"

"Mr. Kong, I won't tell you,"

Rodman hesitated for a moment and replied: "Indeed, although the Transvaal Republic is not a big country, we have a large number of skilled personnel, and there is fertile land and abundant resources here, even if the national strength is weak, there will be no financial problems." But we are faced with a savage neighbour, to the south of ours, where the British occupy the Cape region, and the entire Cape of Good Hope is occupied by them, and the economy of our republic is blockaded, and our eastern Zulu kingdom is in conflict with our Republic, which consumes our precious resources, and most of all, our Republic and the Orange Free State, although both are Boers, and both are willing to honor President Martinas as their leader, but they are not willing to form a unified state, so, We've had a tough time over the years......"

"It's the British again!"

Kong Youlin said unhappily, "Over the years, the British have also been eyeing our Chinese Empire, and have always intended to invade our territory, if it weren't for our leader, His Majesty Guo Ye, who personally led us to re-establish the empire, maybe we would have been under the oppression of the British, Mr. Rodman, we have a similar painful experience......

"Yes, yes! Mr. Kong, we hope to be able to get your country's help and form a friendly alliance with your country, and it would be great if we could become allies......"

Rodman sighed.

"Mr. Rodman, is this your own meaning or your country's meaning?"

Kong Youlin asked vigilantly.

"Of course, Mr. Kong, I mean it myself, but if I can form a strong alliance with your country, I think any Boer will be happy to see it happen."

Rodman said in a deep voice.

Kong Youlin thought for a moment, and said: "Mr. Rodman, this matter, I need to confirm your country's attitude first, if your country is interested, then naturally I am willing to help and achieve friendship between the two countries, don't hide it from Mr. Rodman, our Qilu Bank was originally established by His Majesty the Emperor, and His Majesty the Emperor has many cronies arranged in the bank, although I am now a manager, but I am just an ordinary person in the empire, but the supervisor of our bank is not a simple character, It itself is a direct confidant of His Majesty the Emperor, and although it does not serve in politics, it is a ...... with great energy."

Supervisors?

Rodman looked at Kong Youlin suspiciously: "In the bank, there is such a position?" ”

Kong Youlin nodded and replied: "Yes, in general, it is to supervise the capital dynamics of each branch, this is a unique position of our Qilu Bank, this supervisor is the personal guard of our Majesty when he was a general, if your country is really interested, we can convey information to the top of the empire through him, and I can also introduce this supervisor of ours to you......"

"Great!"

Rodman shouted, "Mr. Kong, you are our great savior, I will go back to ask for the opinion of our Mr. President, don't worry, soon, there will be news soon!" ”

Kong Youlin smiled and said: "Mr. Rodman, since this is the case, then I will not keep you more, I will personally draw up the loan documents of both parties, and when you come over again, we can reach an agreement on a loan of 300,000 pounds, and hand over the money to you!" ”

Rodman nodded excitedly, stood up, bowed and said, "Mr. Kong, then everything is left to you!" ”

Kong Youlin smiled and beckoned to the steward on the side, who hurriedly walked over.

Kong Youlin took an envelope from the steward's hand and handed it to Rodman.

Rodman looked at Kong Youlin in surprise, Kong Youlin smiled and said: "Mr. Rodman, as a friend, when I learned about your predicament, I was very sad, this is a thousand pounds, not a tribute, it can be regarded as a gift between our friends!" ”

A thousand pounds!

It's not a huge number, but it's definitely a lot! Even he, the chief treasurer, earns only two hundred pounds a year! That's the equivalent of five years' salary!

"This ......"

Rodman hesitated, once such a large sum of money was accepted, what did it mean? I have to do things for each other in the future!

"Mr. Rodman, didn't I say that we are friends, I don't mean anything else, I just want to make friends with you, after all, in the Transvaal Republic, I have to open more offices, and I have to invest in the establishment of factories or other things, this is without your help, I am afraid that I will not be able to achieve this wish......"

Kong Youlin said, "Shouldn't I pay you for your advice when you help me give advice?" Don't worry, if it is something that violates morality and destroys the interests of your country, I will not ask you to do it, this is the foundation of our friendship, isn't it? ”

When Rodman heard Kong Youlin say this, his heart was finally more steady, if he just helped to do something, he could accept the money, as long as he didn't destroy his national interests, then no one could care!

"Mr. Kong, then thank you very much, three days, three days later, I will definitely give you a clear answer, I think, our Mr. President will definitely be excited after receiving the news of your country's intention to establish diplomatic relations! I hope that our Transvaal Republic and the Chinese Empire can become true friends! ”
