Chapter 301: Foreign affairs arrangements

"Watch the changes and follow the trend." After receiving news from Brazil and other sources that the situation in Brazil is about to get out of control, Li Mingyuan discussed with his officials and generals for two days and made a calm decision.
Han has just occupied Brazil, and nearly half of the main forces have scattered the newly occupied areas to deter local white people. If they rashly intervene in the situation in Brazil, they will face the dilemma of insufficient troops and exhausted troops, and the second is that there is not much war preparation materials left. Lu deepened, logistics materials were difficult to guarantee. Therefore, combining the two major factors of Han's own situation and the British's unclear attitude towards Pedro II, Li Mingyuan chose to shift his focus to the domestic side, and first brought the already successful results of Argentina and Uruguay. After digesting, and depending on the changes in the war situation between Paraguay and Brazil, then decide whether to send troops to rob Paraná in southern Brazil. …………
"Mr. Yuyu, sit."
"Thank Your Highness."
Sitting in a chair, Hu Yaji pushed the tea from the guard's relatives at one end of the table and said, "Have your Highness summoned his subordinates, is it a blockade for the English country?"
"Let Mr. Yuzheng guess correctly, the English people blocked my maritime transportation, and the local and overseas connections were interrupted. These days have been worrying about this matter."
"His Royal Highness, according to His Excellency, Argentina and Uruguay have been occupied by the Han Army. People who have migrated from all parts of the northern part of the country are filling the homeland of Argentina and Uruguay. The purpose of the Argentine War is achieved, and the English people take the initiative. Withdrawing from Argentina's coastal port base, it can be speculated that the British Expeditionary Fleet is currently in a dilemma, and the British Government must be hesitant about the situation of its Expeditionary Fleet.
Therefore, his subordinates thought that the court might take advantage of the current opportunity to actively send officials to contact the English people and initially propose the conditions for peace talks. Even if the negotiations failed, the court could explore some information about the British Expeditionary Fleet and its domestic situation. "
"I also have this idea, so I specifically invited you today, just to hear your opinions."
"According to the current situation, the peace talks should be made early and not too late. If His Highness agrees, His Highness will prepare for peace talks with English for two days."
"Mr. Yuyu is sixty years old this year?"
Li Mingyuan did not immediately agree with Hu Yaji's request.
"Jiaqing has been twenty-one years old and is just 64 years old this year."
"Jiaqing twenty-one years, 1816 ..."
Li Mingyuan secretly estimated the year of Hu Yaji ’s birth, hesitating, "Mr. Yuyu is sixty-four. He did n’t want to trouble Mr. Yingli about the peace talks, but now there is a lack of officials who are familiar with foreign affairs in the local area, and then let Mr. Lao spend the old days of state affairs. Mingyuan couldn't bear it. "
"His Royal Highness is very grateful."
Hu Yaji was moved and said, "His body is very healthy, and it is no problem to serve His Royal Highness for another ten years. At present, it is the time of employment in the country. Not to mention that His Highness is only sixty or four, that is, Eighty is four. It is not worse than Jiang Taigong's ambition, and he is willing to perform his allegiance to His Royal Highness and Han Dynasty! "
"Oh well, with the help of a talented man like Mr. Yuxi, why worry that the great cause of the South American and Chinese nations will not succeed!"
Li Mingyuan helped Hu Yaji bowing and saluting, encouragingly said, "The Han national foundation is short and the domestic affairs are complicated. It requires you and my princes to work hard to keep it. Mr. Yuchao wants to keep his bones. The king wants to work with you 20 years later. The founding old minister is drinking with pleasure. "
"Your subordinates must be in your heart." Hu Yaji was so touched that the corner of his eyes couldn't help saving a tear.
After entering the business, Hu Yaki changed from an ordinary Chinese businessman in Nanyang to less than ten years into a senior official in the Han Dynasty. His father and son were in politics, and his second son was in charge of Nanyang Huangpu's corporate affairs. In life's encounters like this, in addition to thanking Li Mingyuan for his gracious encounters, Hu Yaki is also grateful and contented.
Judging by Hu Yaji's performance, Li Mingyuan is not good at stimulating this young Chinese who is not too young to personally help the other person sit down. Li Mingyuan encouraged "the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has always been run by a gentleman, and Wang is ready to wait until the situation stabilizes. Mr. Appointed is the Director General of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and is fully responsible for Han's foreign affairs. "
"His Highness ..."
"Hey, Mr. Yu Yan said nothing. Mr. Yu's performance in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs for several years, both the king and government officials, are in his eyes. It is more appropriate for Mr. Yu to preside over the affairs of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs."
After the founding of the country, a total of twelve key central departments of the ten departments and two houses required a large number of middle and senior officials. In order to avoid the increase of posts by the officials and their officials, Hu Yaji, Chen Jinzhong, and other Chinese businessmen and scholars who fled from the Nanyang region were initially granted Secretary-General and bureau-level official positions. Over the past few years, most official positions have risen. For example, Hu Yaji's official position has risen to the level of deputy minister. In the absence of the senior foreign minister, his deputy chief has almost the same power as the chief, so, Hearing Li Mingyuan's plan to correct his situation, Hu Yaji quit after a few words and agreed.
"His Royal Highness, I have something to report to you."
"Sir, please."
"Then he spoke straight."
Hu Yaji calmed down from emotions such as promotion and excitement, and quickly took over the role of chief diplomat. He said, "The country has established its foundation for nearly ten years, but before the Argentine war, the focus of the court has always been on local expansion, industrial construction, and overseas Chinese. In terms of immigration and other matters, although the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has important responsibilities in the twelve ministries, the foreign agencies established by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in the United States, Germany, France and other countries are all in the name of business stations and on the basis of national legal principles. The Han Dynasty did not establish formal diplomatic relations with a large European power.
His Royal Highness, the Manchu dynasty court established formal diplomatic relations with the Europa Powers seven years before the Han Kingdom. If our Han Powers wanted to ease relations with the Europa Powers after the Argentine War, perfect the functions of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and clarify formal diplomatic relations with the countries Relationships are necessary. "
"Mr. Yu's statement is very reasonable. The government was busy with local affairs before, and it did miss a lot in foreign affairs."
Li Mingyuan nodded in agreement with Hu Yaji's proposal.
"The three countries of Germany, France, and England are powerful, and they also have important influences on the mainland in terms of industrial and commercial exchanges.
What advice do you have for the diplomatic envoys in the three countries after the war? "
"In the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, there are a few candidates for the diplomatic capacity and experience in the Kingdom of England and France. However, there are not many officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who are familiar with German and have some understanding of the domestic situation of Germany ~ EbookFREE.me ~ Nearly half of the publicly-funded international students sent from the country are concentrated in the German country. The industrial and military exchanges between the country and the German country are also the closest. The candidate for the German Minister is very important, and we must choose carefully. "
"His Royal Highness, what do you think of King Wang Arita?
Public opinion in the United States of America is boiling. After the war in Argentina, diplomatic relations between the government and the United States of America were difficult to maintain. It was a good time for King Wang to return to his country to report his post. "
"The incident of Chinese exclusion in the United States may be more serious than Mr. imagines. Wang Youtian has another important task, but he cannot escape from Germany."
Li Mingyuan waved and rejected Hu Yaki's proposal.
"Wang Youtian has another appointment. Who else can serve as Minister in Germany in terms of ability and qualifications?"
Hu Yakisi thought for a long time and did not find a suitable candidate.
"My King remembers that Mr. Hu Jingde, the third son of Mr. Hu, is familiar with the three languages ​​of English, German, and East Slang. Hasn't Mr. considered considering putting him in German?
"Children only learned a few foreign words when they followed his subordinates to do business. It made him worse off as a German ambassador to Germany and to deal with Germans."
"Your son is over 30 years old, and he took the initiative to sign up to study in Germany four years ago. Many people of your age and experience in the government have already assumed a great responsibility. opportunity."
"But Jingde has no one-sided experience, and rashly conferring big duties may delay the cooperation between the government and the German state."
"That was the first arrangement. Hu Jingde was promoted to a half-level position. He was appointed Deputy Minister in Germany, and the level was set at the bureau level. He is temporarily familiar with the working arrangements for the Minister in Germany.
