Chapter 22 Even if you jump up, you can’t hit its knees

 "You don't want a privateering license?" Julia was a little confused.

"It really can't produce the value that makes me tempted here." Alphonse shook his head and said: "If you want the distribution rights, I think we can cooperate in another way."

"I'd like to hear the details, but with all due respect, I really can't come up with a large sum of money." Julia frowned.

"I have just received a large investment, more than 500,000 livres. In order to invest this money into the most successful business as soon as possible, I am currently gathering my friends and plan to follow the example of the East India Company to form a joint-stock chamber of commerce.

You can just complete one of our sectors, which is our own armed fleet." Alphonse smiled and said: "If you are willing, you can establish a chamber of commerce around this privateering license, and then invest in the chamber of commerce.

, become part of the Chamber of Commerce, you still enjoy half of the rights and interests of the privateering license, and I will exchange the other half with you as an agent, and then I will exchange my half of the rights and interests with my friends, so that they can share this

Rights."

"This is not my original intention, and you only paid half of the price I wanted to share the convenience brought by this privateering license." Julia frowned.

"If you think so, then I have nothing to say. Why haven't you thought about it? It's precisely because I respect you and your family that I didn't use money to buy the half of the privateering license that will belong to you next.

Where are the rights?" Alphonse's face became cold: "Do you think it is necessary for me to feel sorry for that part of the goods and give up the private ownership of the license? As long as I am willing, I can always ask my friends to pay for this part of the price.

Pay the bill."

"This...I'm sorry, I misunderstood you." Seeing that Alphonse was actually angry, Julia quickly apologized and motioned with her eyes to An to say a few nice words.

"Okay, no need to say anything." Before Ann could speak, Alphonse waved his hand and continued: "I think Ms. Julia also needs to reconsider whether to cooperate. Today's meeting will end here.

Well, Miss Charles, please entertain the lady well for me. The Chamber of Commerce will bear all the travel expenses for the lady this time."

"No, Mr. Mohler, you misunderstood me. I mean I was so surprised. I didn't expect that the family could still own it. You probably don't know. It's nothing to other people, but it's our relationship with

My father's only connection in this world." Julia continued in a low mood: "If it weren't for the family, I would never take it out. After all, it is the family's last glory."

"No, madam, glory is inherent." Alphonse was also worried that he was using too much force. Fortunately, Julia was really at the end of her rope: "I come from an ancient sword family. Before I was born,

At that time, the nobles in robes dared to show off their power in my hometown. This is really shameful. This is precisely because glory is innate. The moment we are born, we shoulder the glory and responsibility of our family! When our

When our ancestors fought bloody battles with enemies, enslavers, and oppressors on the battlefield and sacrificed their lives for the country, their ancestors may have been gangsters or thieves! Please do not give up the glory of your family easily."

"Thank you, thank you so much, Mr. Mohler, you know? I am really under too much pressure during this time. I never thought that I would lose two close relatives in just one year..." Julie

Ya sadly said that from Alphonse's point of view, what was probably more sad for her was the loss of two close relatives within one year...

"I can understand you. Really, you may not know that my family was once so poor that even a decent wedding had to be raised. You should go back and have a good rest. I will hold the ceremony in the evening.

A cocktail party will warm you up and let you get to know my friends." Alphonse smiled and said: "I will visit you again tomorrow afternoon to confirm the specific contract with you."

"Thank you so much, Mr. Moller." Julia reached out and took Alphonse's hand. She was so emotional that Alphonse couldn't let go for a moment...

"Julia, let me see you off. I will change my clothes later and pick you up at the hotel." An quickly reached out and pulled the skirt of Julia's skirt and whispered.

"Oh, it's so rude, Mr. Mohler, I made you laugh." Julia quickly retracted her hand.

"It's nothing, you just have a deep love for your family." Alphonse smiled.

Julia smiled slightly, stood up and bowed slightly to say goodbye. Alphonse hurriedly walked to the door of the study, and then Alfred and Ann walked to the door of the house.

When An returned to the study, he saw Alphonse standing in front of the window of the study looking down at the window. He couldn't help but curled his lips and walked over. He complained not far from Alphonse: "You can see everything here.

No, why, has our Mr. Moller fallen in love with Miss Julia?"

"Why do you think so?" Alphonse asked with a smile, still looking out the window.

"Although she is still unmarried, she is twice your age. You are not even willing to give me a salary, but you do not hesitate to give up your privateering license. Apart from love, this is really hard to understand." An Shuangzhuang.

He replied with his arms crossed.

"Haha!" Alphonse turned around with laughter, took a step forward and hugged An, almost close to her face and said: "What you did is really great, An, you fought for us

Get a unique privateering license!"

"Uh...let me go." An rolled her eyes first, and then continued: "But you pushed it out again."

"If you don't push half of it back, how can it be unique?" Alphonse did not let go, but just relaxed a little and continued: "I don't even need five thousand livres to buy a privateering license.

But what's the use? Otherwise you wouldn't have come here specifically to find such a privateering license from a famous family."

"But you still pushed it away." An was still struggling with Alphonse's refusal to fully possess it.

"Because I don't want to be a privateer." Alphonse laughed: "Think about it, our ship flew the black flag of the Orange family and robbed a batch of treasures, and then brought them back and sold them openly. What would it be like?

What about huge profits?"

"Is this possible?" An was stunned for a moment. Is this too vulgar?

"Of course, my plan is that we set up a chamber of commerce, put the privateering license there, and it is jointly owned by our chamber of commerce and the Orange family, and then our privateers are owned by this chamber of commerce, and then these

The things that the privateers robbed were then resold to our chamber of commerce; the money from the sales was to keep the privateers running, and the rest belonged to us. Not only did we get a huge profit, but it also allowed Orange to

The family also received such a small amount of money, even if they wanted to get rid of the relationship. At the same time, the Dutch all know that the Orange family, especially where there is the East India Company, we can do whatever we want; this is not us.

Buying a privateering license yourself is even comparable to buying a license from the Orange family. After all, only in the hands of the Orange family can the greatest power be exerted." Alphonse continued with a smile: "There is also the most important thing.

Importantly, only under the name of the Orange family can we have 24-pound guns or even larger calibers. As you said, William III needs money, so doesn’t he need a strong fleet? It belongs to the Netherlands.

But it is an asset of the French people."

"You damn devil, no wonder you made a fortune in the artillery business. It turns out you are a damn warmonger." An said fiercely.

"Without us selling war, how would others have the opportunity to sacrifice their lives? If we don't send these desperadoes to the battlefield, why don't they stay close to home and linger on the streets? We are the real good people!" Alphonse Tian replied shamelessly.

"My cousin is not a desperado." An hummed.

"So even if he went to the battlefield, he didn't earn any money for his life." Alphonse rolled his eyes and said.

"Who told me that my ancestors might be hooligans or thieves? Noble sir," An said in an equally annoyed tone.

"I'm talking about those nobles in robes. Just because their ancestors stole money, they started stealing glory now that they have money. No matter how many generations reincarnate, they can't get rid of the blood of sin." Alphonse winked playfully.

Blink.

"It is simply blasphemy for you not to become a priest." An complained.

"I am a devil. If I become a priest, that would be a greater blasphemy, wouldn't it?" Alphonse burst into laughter.

"If you don't let go, I'll consider beating you up, Mr. Devil." An snorted.

"I am a sword-wielding noble." Alphonse smiled and let go of his hand and continued: "Next, you will be responsible for instilling an idea into Ms. Margaret, that is, I am the only one who does not covet her family's license.

People, and the Chamber of Commerce is the only one willing to treat them as equals and possibly lend a helping hand when they need it most."

"Let's talk realistically, how much money can I get for this?" An replied.

"20,000 livres." Alphonse replied.

"Really?" An's eyes lit up.

"This is a share. You can only get a monthly dividend of about 200 livres." Alphonse shrugged and replied.

"Damn it, can you convert it into cash?" An pleaded: "Even if it's only 10,000."

"You are even willing to give up 10,000 livres in order to go to Africa. Could it be that for 10,000 livres, people in Africa can't wait for you anymore?" Alphonse asked with a smile.

"Huh, I can't trust you." An said with a guilty conscience.

"In addition to the dreams and poems in the distance, and the food and drink right in front of you. Miss Charles, do you really plan to go to Africa with nothing, and then return to China with poverty and wind and frost?" Alphonse held his hands.

An's shoulder said: "Write a letter to Africa. If they ask you to go to Africa now with money, I can give you 10,000 livres at any time, okay?"

"My cousin will definitely let me stay in the country." An loudly said: "I have been waiting for so long, do I have to wait until I am old?"

"Pfft." Alphonse suppressed a laugh and just looked at An without saying anything.

"Why are you laughing?" Miss An? Charles was obviously angry.

"I'm not laughing." Alphonse replied with great difficulty.

"You still said, aren't you just laughing?" An got angry and slapped Alphonse.

"Okay, I laughed." Alphonse still looked at Ann with a smile. The charming atmosphere suddenly made her blush with embarrassment. She lowered her head, stepped on Alphonse's foot suddenly, and then threw a wrench.
