"Dear Chief Chief, you also know that I am now in charge of the military defense of the Detroit Fortress and the other four fortresses. This time I am here to ask you, your army will not do anything to my fortress, right?" I had a drink. Cha, smoking a cigarette, Colonel Alston thought he was about to have a relationship with this burly man, and then cautiously asked the question that had been held in his mind for a long time.

　　 Shi Xiong who asked about this was taken aback for a moment, and then burst into laughter.

　　 "Alvin, this is really interesting for you to ask." In the chat just now, after Shi Xiong asked a few questions, he clarified the guy's family background and some details.

　　 Obviously, although this guy is a British army colonel, he really has no military talents. He can climb to such a high position at such a young age, mainly because of his family.

　　 To paraphrase a buzzword from later generations, this guy is particularly rich and second generation and official second generation.

　　 It doesn't matter if you have the ability, as long as your father is good!

　　Of course, this Colonel Alston is not without skills, but his skills are mostly embodied in business, rather than military and political.

　　 And the sentence he asked directly reflects his political and military ignorance.

　　 Seeing Orston's awkward expression, Shi Xiong continued to smile and said, "We are friends, right?"

　　 Auston took a deep breath and nodded affirmatively.

　　 "Are we Cherokee and your UK good friends?"

　　 Allston continued nodding.

"Then it ends? Since we are friends, and the relationship between my tribe and your country has been very good, why should I kill you? You didn't offend me. Besides, if I really want to kill you Before the winter last year, your military fortresses might have been wiped out by my soldiers. Do you think you can still sit here with me, drinking tea and smoking?"

　　 "This...this is true...hehe..." Allston laughed awkwardly.

Shi Xiong leaned his body slightly, his face suddenly became serious, "Also, with our current strength of the tribe and the relationship with your country, even if I really kill you, do you think your country will help you? Don’t forget, now the riots of the colonists alone have caused your king to be devastated..."

　　 Auston shivered with fright, his face turned ugly.

　　 Shixiong laughed loudly again, it was fun to make this guy okay.

　　 Colonel Alston now understands that people are playing with themselves...

　　 "I said Alvin, I want to ask a question about you." Shi Xiong suddenly changed the subject. But the little joke just made made Colonel Alston realize that the powerful chief in front of him would not do it to himself.

　　 So, he also let go in a short period of time.

　　 "Lord Chief, just ask if you have anything. As long as I know, I will tell you the truth."

　　 "Well, I want to ask, now the east side is so lively, do you want to go to the east to earn military merit, or do you want to stay here and continue to engage in your family's fur trade?"

There was a look of hesitation on Auston’s face, but he just hesitated, and then said with certainty: “I think it’s better for me to stay here. After all, I don’t like war very much, and I don’t need military merit. Come and add something to me."

　　 Auston hesitated again, "It's just that, in the current situation, I can't call the shots. On the battlefield to the east, our British Empire doesn't seem to be very dominant..."

　　 Ishikuma happily clapped his hands and said, "If you really have this idea, I can help you."

　　 "Why do you help me?"

　　 "Hehe, if I think you are a good person, I want to work with you... Well, or maybe I want to cooperate with the family behind you, do you believe it?"

　　 Auston thought for a while, "Chief, do you mean cooperation in business?"

"Yes, I just want to do business cooperation with your family. And I can guarantee that even if unexpected things happen in the future, I will guarantee your safety, and I will also guarantee that your family is in the New World. The safety of the business."

After a pause, Shi Xiong continued to explain: "I used to cooperate with your country through Colonel James Jones. But now that James has left the New World and returned to China, I still lack a trusted partner on your side. James himself is not strong enough, and I also want to find a partner with sufficient strength."

　　 Ishikuma’s words made Auston’s eyes light up, and he couldn’t wait to ask: "Chief, do you mean you are cooperating with our family to start trade in Europe?"

"Yes, you should know all the refined salt and cigarettes that have been popular in the past ten years? That's my industry. The promotion of James is not very profitable. I need a more suitable partner. In addition, here There are many things that you rarely see in the European continent. I need to find a partner with sufficient strength to cooperate. Well, the Fernando family in the Kingdom of Spain has been my partner as early as seven or eight years ago, but I still want to find more partners. I hate French people, so I don't want to work with French people now. How about, do you think my proposal is appropriate?"

"Of course it fits! Dear Chief Chief, you can find our family to cooperate~lightnovelpub.net~ This is the honor of our family! And I can assure you here that if we really cooperate, our family We will use all our power to protect our cooperation!" Auston's business acumen and sensitivity immediately made him offer a flattering promise again.

　　 In the past ten years or so, the colony and the mainland, refined salt, cigarettes, edible oil and even a small amount of steel and cement from the New World are very popular things. Well, it’s not enough to use the best-selling to describe it. If anyone can get these things, it will be an absolute huge profit when they sell them backhand!

The Fernando family of the Kingdom of Spain, Aston also knows. He is very aware of the wealth that the family has made for cigarettes, refined salt and weapons in the Kingdom of Spain in the past few years. Now even the king of Spain has taken the Fernando family’s money. The fat patriarch was regarded as a powerful right-hand man. The prestige and strength of the Fernando family are now among the top few families in the entire Spanish kingdom.

　　 But, those things that flowed out of the indigenous tribes of the New World, now only the Fernando family can get it, um, it seems that there is also a new nobleman engaged in textiles and textile machinery in the local area that can also get it. In addition to these two, if other people want to get these good things, they have to buy them from them.

　　 If your family can cooperate with the powerful warchief in front of you, then the strength of the Alston family will inevitably be greatly improved. And he, the third son who had never been able to compete for the title of his father's earl, immediately increased the possibility of becoming the next earl of Auston to more than 90%!

It is absolutely impossible for the 　　 family to miss this opportunity!
