Ito Hirobumi looked at the eyes of Young Master Meng, and he was about to shoot out of anger Ito Hirobumi During this time, he had nightmares almost every day, and the root of his nightmare was actually a one-year-old child planted in the hands of a one-year-old child, and no one could accept it.Young Master Meng winked at Hirobumi Ito and said with a smile: "Mr.
Hirobumi Ito, let's meet again." ”Ito snorted and didn't speak.Young Master Meng smiled: "Alas, Mr.
Ito Hirobumi, aren't you very polite, since you went to the American Concession to make trouble, I found that you are becoming more and more impolite" Ito Hirobumi resisted the urge to pounce and strangle Young Master Meng, glaring, "Yue Mengsang, I admire your business acumen very much, but relying on fraud, can only be a superficial means, if you want to really embark on the road of industry and commerce, you still have to rely on the country, rely on the government, or rely on the strength of the whole country, this is not a genius, can do it. ”Young Master Meng smiled slightly, Ito Hirofumi deliberately focused on the two words of a genius, just to tell him that compared to Japan, he Xuan Yuemeng is just an insignificant individual, don't hang too much.Young Master Meng: "I'm definitely not alone, are you blind or blind in your brain can't see how many elites of the Great Qing Kingdom are here, don't say anything else, just our Lord Li Zhongtang, one person can surpass the wisdom of your entire country, in addition to grabbing something and doing something unseemly, what use do you have for our Great Qing Kingdom, as long as you take one step, it can be enough for you to walk 10,000 steps" Although Young Master Meng is exaggerated, but Young Master Meng's remarks, Enough to hit the Japanese, of course, understand the huge gap between Japan and China in terms of national strength, China is like a Mount Tai and grow taller casually, it is enough for the world to look up to Ito Hirofumi glared at Young Master Meng, snorted, and stopped arguing with Young Master Meng.The negotiation has not officially begun, Li Hongzhang knows that these few words of greetings between Yue Meng and Ito Hirofumi have actually involved negotiations, and the negotiation is more about strength and momentum Li Hongzhang is very satisfied with Yue Meng's cannon, there is no more suitable person than Yue Meng, because Yue Meng is the winner of the world for the Japanese, and only the winner is qualified to win.At this time, although the Qing Dynasty was still higher than Japan in terms of strength, the Japanese had a brutal temperament, and they could be said to be reasonable if they were unreasonable, and three points of reason could be said to be seven points, so the two sides still stood on the basis of an equal negotiation.Young Master Meng smiled slightly: "Ito Bobunsang, what you said is right, no matter how talented a person is, he can't compete with the power of a country, haven't you seen it, today my family is here in person, my talent, compared to Lord Zhongtang, it is simply Xiao Ye Seeing Taishan, it is not worth mentioning Moreover, there are still many talents around our Lord Li Zhongtang, do you want me to introduce you to it" Young Master Meng's words turned sharply, and immediately raised Li Hongzhang Ito Hirobumi saw that Xuan Yuemeng had been holding on to what he had just said, a little annoyed and angry, diplomacy is more than talking, a true diplomat, at all times to maintain demeanor and calm.Young Master Meng is not a diplomat, he is at most a gun in Li Hongzhang's hand, but Young Master Meng is also happy to make this gun.Hirofumi Ito couldn't do it, "You've been rambling, I really don't understand, why such an important negotiation, there is a small child to participate in Master Li Zhongtang, you are a great disrespect to my Japanese Empire." ”Young Master Meng smiled slightly: "You should be called Little Japanese Empire, are you worthy of a big character, you are arrogant, if you really don't know history, you should read more books, I can introduce a few bookstores to you." ”Ito Hirofumi still can't help but quarrel with Young Master Meng.Yanagihara Maeko knew that if he continued to fight like this, Ito Hirobumi would not be able to bargain, so he hurriedly lectured Ito Hirobumi in Japanese.I thought it was a curse, so Nong Jinsun didn't translate it.Ito Hirofumi bowed ninety degrees, "Yue Meng-san, please take care of me in the future" Xuan Yuemeng smiled: "That's right, also, in the future, you still call me Mr.
Yuemeng, don't call me Yuemeng-san, I have goosebumps when I hear it."
You all remember, when you Japanese were our Qin State, Xu Fu went to sea, where did you find the indigenous seeds, you are all my Chinese wild seeds, don't forget your ancestors" Li Hongzhang was shocked, he originally thought that what Yue Meng said was very good, why did he suddenly say this stubble again, isn't this scolding in front of me Ito Hiroshi's face was red and white, and he translated Young Master Meng's words to the Japanese mission.The Japanese all stood up at that time and glared at Young Master Moe.Young Master Meng laughed: "Why didn't I talk nonsense, I'm giving you popular science knowledge, you won't even know this history, come here, give a copy of the information collected by Ben Gongzi to the wild species in Japan, let them know what history is, if people are separated from history, separated from their ancestors, a country will lose its direction, Mr.
Ito Hirobumi, don't you always like to talk about the country, don't you don't know this basic truth" Ito Hirobumi suppressed his anger," Thank you Mr.
Yuemeng for teaching Xu Fu the story of going to sea, I also know some, but your version is different from our Japanese historical version, they are a group of exiles who fled to our Japan to escape Qin Shi Huang, and we took them in, accounting for only a very small part, and they have long been assimilated into Japan's vast culture. ”Young Master Meng laughed: "Ridiculous, too ridiculous, Mr.
Ito Hirobumi, can you find an example of your Japanese coming to China, are we spreading culture to you, okay, don't say Tang Xuanzang, just say Xu Fu, you look at your current writing, they are all composed of the side of our Chinese characters, you even have words are our wild species, this is not to mention the others, we are complicated, you are simple, isn't it very clear who learns whom, if there is no spread of Chinese culture, maybe you are still wearing clothes made of leaves, Catch rabbits in the mountains and eat them. ”After listening to Young Master Meng's words, it was mainly a serious thing that Young Master Meng said, as if a Mr.
Enlightenment was teaching schoolchildren, not only all the officials of the Qing Dynasty, but even Li Hongzhang couldn't help laughing.Ito Hirofumi was furious, and simply added fuel to the vinegar and translated the words of Young Master Meng to the members of the Japanese mission.Yanagihara Qianguang glared at Young Master Meng, snorted, ignored Young Master Meng, got up and said loudly: "All the paragraphs of the treaty drafted by our country are all treaties approved by the emperor of our country, and I hope that Lord Li Zhongtang will not change it."
If Mr.
Li Zhongtang insists on changing the terms, please only consider the subsections and do not use the large amounts.Otherwise, the Minister will not be able to make an account of His Majesty the Emperor when he returns home. ”After listening to Nong Jinsun's translation, Li Hongzhang slowly stood up and said with a cold face: "The main department can't understand what Minister Yanagihara Maeko is saying.The main ministry believed that since the two countries had agreed to conclude a treaty of commerce, it should start with the common interests of the two countries.Since the emperor of your country is not allowed to change the treaty, the Motobu Hall does not understand why he still sent Yanagihara Maemitsu and other ministers to our country" Yanagihara Maemitsu showed no urgency and said, "Lord Li Zhongtang.The Emperor of Japan has sent Minister Moto and his entourage to express his good intentions in concluding a treaty of trade with your country.We have great respect for your Emperor, and I would like to ask you to respect your Emperor of Japan.May I ask Lord Li Zhongtang, is there anything wrong with the trade treaty drawn up by our country, and my country of Japan completely imitates the example of your country signing treaties with Britain, France, and other Western countries, and there are no additional requirements?"
Li Hongzhang said coldly: "The treaties made by our Qing Dynasty and Western countries are not suitable for your country.Moreover, the situation in the United Kingdom and France is not the same as in your country.If your minister insists on copying the practice of the Qing Dynasty in signing a treaty with the Western Kingdom, the Ministry can only say that our country cannot agree to your request to conclude a treaty with the Qing Dynasty.The headquarters also wanted to tell Minister Yanagihara that the treaty submitted by Minister Yanagihara before the meeting had been refuted.If your country is sincere in its desire to conclude a treaty of commerce with the Qing Dynasty, it must be renegotiated, and it is not possible to copy the example of a treaty with the West. ”Li Hongzhang is too big and very tough, so that after the young master Meng heard it, he secretly liked it, and secretly wondered if Jiang was still old and spicy, Li Hongzhang engaged in diplomacy, and he was indeed a good hand, but the country was too weak, and he blindly put any responsibility on Li Hongzhang, which was also unfair to Li Hongzhang.Relatively speaking, compared to other Chinese officials in this era, in the eyes of Young Master Meng, Li Hongzhang is very good.After listening to Li Hongzhang's words, Yanagihara Maemitsu was speechless for a while, and hurriedly discussed countermeasures with Ito Hirobumi and the ministers of the mission, and the talks reached an impasse again.After a moment, Yanagihara Maemitsu got up and said, "May I ask Lord Li Zhongtang, the trade treaty revised by Japan is a very friendly country like the Western countries, and your country should treat everyone equally, and you should not do anything that will disappoint our emperor." ”Li Hongzhang said with a smile: "The words of Minister Yanagihara Maeko made the headquarters even more incomprehensible.Our two countries have not yet formally signed a contract, I don't know why the emperor of your country should be disappointed, Minister Yanagihara Qianguang is telling jokes in the same department, "Young Master Meng heard Li Hongzhang say this, smiled and slapped his face, "Lord Zhongtang is so good, Japanese, are you here to be funny, you haven't signed a contract yet, you don't even know if we will sign a contract with you, your mother's emperor is going to be disappointed, you are when our Great Qing Kingdom is a place for you to pick up things, if you can't pick up gold, will you be unlucky to go back" t1706231537:
