My British Empire

"For the behavior of the English, we need to submit a proposal for trade sanctions to the alliance meeting next year, and submit a letter of protest to the King of England to resolutely oppose this behavior!"

The Bremen businessman has a beard all over his face, and his eyes are wide open. This is the image of blowing his beard and staring. It can be seen how angry he is in his heart.

The route to Eastern Europe has always been in the hands of Hanseatic merchants, monopolizing it. This time, England actually challenged the Hanseatic authority, and they had to be furious.

"England's shameless behavior is really disgraceful. This is a violation of the dignity of the Hanseatic League and a violation of the spirit of fair business. In this regard, I call on all Hanseatic cities to refuse to do business with England. They get a taste of offending the Hanseatic League!"

The Bremen businessman stood with a big belly, and appealed excitedly to the other businessmen sitting beside him.

However, to his surprise, the rest of the merchants were completely indifferent to his appeal, and some even yawned with sleepy eyes.

"Hehe! Mr. Pole, don't waste your time, you may just come here and you are not familiar with England!"

At this time, a plump man stood up, curled his lips, and said meaningfully:

"A few years ago, our business war in London was ruined by that young king. We merchants were kicked out of the centuries-old trading station!"

"Our protest was ignored by the young king, but at the League Assembly, city representatives shy away from suggesting to teach England a lesson, and finally came up with a non-aggressive protest letter!"

Speaking of this, the disdainful expression on the merchant's face was undoubtedly revealed, while the rest of the merchants present all showed approval. The Hanseatic League really disappointed them.

"Today's Hanseatic League is no longer the former Hanseatic League! The cities are arguing endlessly, fighting openly and secretly, and they are powerless against the English!"

His words aroused the emotions of others, and everyone was dissatisfied.

"I've lost four floors of my business in England and my profits have fallen to nothing!"

"Those Englands are eating up our business, and the taxes are still high. This business can't be done!"

"It's useless, give up!"

…………

The businessmen sighed and complained endlessly.

Of course, on the surface this is naturally the case, one by one suffered heavy losses.

However, the real situation is that most of these businessmen have given up the Hanseatic League's model of buying low and selling high, and no longer operate purely trade between countries.

Instead, he chose to buy land and build a factory in England, and no longer devotes 100% energy to the trade business between countries.

After all, at present, the power of the Hanseatic League in the whole of Europe continues to decline, and the previous scene of teaching Denmark can no longer be reproduced.

More importantly, the payment of alliance dues varies from city to city, and the contradiction between small cities and big cities is difficult to ease.

At this time, how can the Hanseatic League, which is full of contradictions, compare with England, which has a vast Spanish and Mediterranean market.

These Hanseatic merchants with a lot of money, under the persuasion of His Majesty the King, invested their funds in England, built farms and bought land, and became British citizens.

More importantly, in England, businessmen, big and small, can take the official examination and become an official respected by everyone.

It can be stabilized, and future generations will become officials and lords, and join the high society, which the Hanseatic League cannot give.

After all, they were not those merchant families, and the stability of their business was extremely poor. If they accidentally encountered a storm at sea, they would be ruined and bankrupt.

Of course, the dozens of big businessmen who joined England were given the status of parliamentarians by Edward, and they were distributed in major cities.

Therefore, this is the reason why there are hundreds of factories in London. After all, most nobles still resist doing business.

"Hmph! You, you—" Seeing everyone's weak appearance, the Cologne businessman was so angry that his head hurt, and the words kept on his lips, but they couldn't come out.

His face was flushed red with anger, and he was trembling when he pointed at the crowd. When he saw that the crowd looked indifferent, he opened the door in a fit of anger, slammed it hard, and left quickly.

"Boom——" After the door rang, Mark Leutz, sitting in front of him, closed his eyes and meditated, finally opened his eyes, looked at the closed door, laughed coldly a few times, and then patted Ass, left the conference room.

The same was true for the others, who smiled at the closed door, and then walked away talking and laughing.

"Go to the palace!" After ordering his groom, Mark Leutz sat down, shook his head, and smiled.

"Idiot—" Mark Leutz cursed softly at the angry businessman just now.

At present, the trend of the end of the Hanseatic League is already obvious, especially since Spain and Portugal have opened the colonial mode, the end of the alliance is even more shocking.

Seeing this, those knowledgeable families and businessmen will of course have a higher eye and plan their retreat in advance, and England, which is rising, is one of the options that his Leutz family is looking for.

He is the spokesperson of the family England.

"Your Majesty, this is all the content of today's meeting!"

Mark bowed and stood in front of the king, softly reporting the content of the meeting just now, not daring to hide anything, and said cautiously.

"I see, you can go down!" His Majesty's voice was as calm and clear as ever.

"Yes!" Mark agreed, then slowly took a few steps back, then turned around, the maid hurriedly opened the door, and just as he was about to leave, His Majesty's voice came from his ears.

"You did a good job!" The voice was very soft, and if you didn't pay attention, you wouldn't hear it at all.

Immediately, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and then spread to the whole face, he paused, and walked away quickly.

He knew that for many years, he had finally left a deep impression in His Majesty's heart, and his future was bright.

Looking at the leaving figure, Edward smiled, stretched his waist, and stood up.

Although the Hanseatic League is still majestic at present, it has long been strong on the outside and not united inside. Facing the gradual rise of Spain, Portugal, England, and France, it even occupied and robbed Novgorod, one of the four major commercial stations. , they dare not even fart.

If not, how could Chandler have established a connection with Moscow? It was precisely because of the robbing of the Hanseatic merchants that no merchants came, so Moscow agreed to establish commercial relations with England, and later the Netherlands.

At present, in the eyes of Edward, the Hanseatic League is a fart.
