Struggle in Russia

Vol 2 Chapter 363: Selfishness (Part 2)

For Robert Cohon, who was angry with John Russell, how could he allow Russell's people to pick peaches? Naturally, he absolutely wanted to let Russell's people know how difficult it was to do something.

Of course, he can't go down stumbling blocks, at least he can't explain his arrangements to these so-called confidants. It may be done that some people will give the new consul general a color according to his intention, but Kehong believes that more people will show the new consul general the first time and sell him directly.

Don't imagine loyalty too reliable this year. Unfaithfulness is the norm. So in order to kill Russell's people, Ke Hong will definitely give a little special medicine.

Obviously, the effect of his speech just now is particularly good, and it will greatly hurt the enthusiasm of these elites. No matter who will take over later, they may not have the idea of ​​working hard to serve the motherland.

It is more likely that when Kokon left his front foot, these people immediately started to find their way out of the fire pit in Wallachia. And when these people are gone or the enthusiasm no longer exists, then the Consul General would not want to easily open up the situation.

Probably not to mention that the situation has been opened, but will be burnt by this workman, plus the French and Russians who are eyeing on the side, Cohon is almost sure how rugged the Russell people will be.

Of course, this little trick is not all, in order to completely mad his successor, Ke Hong riding this last moment is still making some more disgusting arrangements.

First of all, he called all the pro-British forces of Wallachia to a meeting, which, as the name suggests, pointed out a clear way for them, but in fact he deliberately digged pits to harm others.

"Gentlemen, the situation is already obvious. Given that Russia and Turkey have basically reached agreement, our government has to adopt a more restrained strategy on the issue of Wallachia... My country hopes that you can cooperate with our government to adopt a new strategy to protect you And the interests of our government..."

"...The new strategy is to avoid sharp confrontations, extreme measures, and major conflicts... This requires you to be restrained and patient..."

The core idea of ​​some speeches is actually "counseling", which not only expresses counsel from the British government but also requires these leading parties to acknowledge counseling.

Of course, it’s absolutely impossible to get together and get together because Cohen’s most critical intention is to make money: “Of course, if you are worried about the prospects of Wallachia, I personally understand it... after all, whether it’s Turkey Or does Russia have a brutal tradition... If they are not civilized, they may take some more traditional and iron-fisted measures when dealing with dissidents..."

It is conceivable that this group of leading parties was already terrified of death, and then let Ke Hong flicker in such a yin and yang way, that the hearts of one by one are naturally up and down.

What Cohon wanted was this effect. When a coward asked the British government if he could provide asylum, he answered seriously:

"Everyone is a friend of the British government. The national government has always attached importance to friendship with you and is willing to provide you with all necessary protective measures... We will actively communicate with the governments of Turkey and Russia and try to persuade them to take more peaceful measures and Means, you can rest assured!"

After listening to these words, if you can still rest assured that the sincerity is two hundred and fifty, at least none of the leading parties here dare to rest assured, and suddenly become more and more agitated. But Kehong felt that the fire was not enough, and suddenly poured a barrel of oil:

"...As for the Chinese government directly providing asylum, this is theoretically feasible from the perspective of international relations and jurisprudence, but there are huge problems and hidden dangers in actual operation. Our government does not advocate such behavior... I can assure you that Wallachia is absolutely safe, and even if there are some hidden dangers, it is generally safe..."

The passers-by started whispering, everyone was in danger, and began to be restless. Even if Kehong repeatedly said that he did not need excessive worry, the gang of goods was terrified.

Then, Ke Hong announced that the meeting was adjourned, because he had already finished what he had to say on the bright side. At this time, he had to show the old-fashioned and calm English style. No matter how much the following gang of goods have to talk about, they will not Let me take care.

Only by showing this attitude will the gang be really afraid, only think it is really abandoned, and will find ways to escape Wallachia at all costs.

Then Cohon only needs to change his skin to extend his hand of friendship, these fools will bite the hook obediently, and then take out a lot of gold coins in the purse to buy a ticket to London.

"One thousand pounds for each visa, no, two thousand pounds are required, only more and more!"

This is Cochon’s offer. He believes that there will be at least twenty or thirty frightened Wallachia fools to flee to London, and he can earn £20,000 or £30,000 on this trip!

Two or thirty thousand pounds! This is a huge sum of money. This year, it was only £30,000 to £50,000 to build a second-class battleship. It was more than enough to build a patrol ship at £20,000 or £30,000. And ordinary people can't earn a thousand pounds in their entire lives~ www.ltnovel.com~ With this money, at least Cohon does not have to worry about life in the next half of his life. Even with proper use, he could consider using the money to participate in elections, and he might as well mix up seats in the House of Commons!

Of course, making money is not the end, but preparing for a comeback. Cohon knew that this trip back to London would definitely take a cold bench, and it was not a matter of months or half a year, or a year or two if it failed.

If there is no money, if there is no funds to move around, even if Palmerston is covering it, the future is very slim. And money is different, and you don’t even have to hang on the Palmerston tree, maybe you can develop a group of new friends!

After this trip, Cohon was also very disappointed with Palmerston, and even his younger brother could not cover it, or even he was disgraced by Russell. Isn't that political future not reliable?

In case it will be the same in the future, wouldn’t he want to follow him for a lifetime? Ke Hong didn't want to finish his second half in such a muddled way. He also hoped to show his grand intentions, not to mention the prime minister. At least the position of foreign minister should always be coveted!

And to achieve all this, the prerequisite is to have money, anyway, Ke Hong now understands that if you want to get mixed, you have to be generous. If you don’t have money, you really can’t do anything!
