On September 9, 1895, representatives of the Qing and Japanese countries finally signed the Qing and Japanese Contract for later civilizations in Los Angeles, the United States. Compared with the Shimonoseki Treaty in history, the Qing Dynasty paid much less. Not only was Taiwan and the Penghu Islands safeguarded, but the amount of compensation was also greatly reduced. Historically, the Japanese government obtained 230 million taels of silver on paper alone. If the interest and fire consumption paid for three years were included, the amount would be more.

But the compensation received by the Japanese in this plane was only 135 million taels of silver! This was the number caused by Germany and France at a critical moment. According to Russia's intention, it was at most 100 million taels! For Ruprecht, there was no way to do so. After all, the British took the central route, and Krupp, Mauser and other arms dealers all gained a lot of benefits. Ruprecht did not get it, and the Japanese took too much, so Ruprecht was very dissatisfied and silently kept a record for these guys in his heart!

The content of other treaties has also changed. While most of the open trade ports provide convenience to the Japanese, the Qing Dynasty also provided convenience to Russia, Germany and France. However, the only thing that is puzzled is that the Japanese emphasized the establishment of a concession in Kaohsiung, and the right to moor warships and build ports. This makes people a little confused. However, after the British proposed that Germany would enjoy privileges within some British spheres of influence in China, the Germans expressed their willingness to accept some transfer of interests. This made Ruprecht feel a little confused.

The Germans' move made the Russians a little dissatisfied. Although Russia had already gained a lot of benefits in this Far East War, for the Russians who came out to take less and even if they were compensated, they felt that Japan was not weakened enough! Unlike in history, the Russians noticed the terribleness of Japan too early. With the end of the Far East War, the Russians also began to step up their military process.

There is a saying in later generations that is very true. The so-called peace is just a gap between two wars. As for the outcome of this war in the future, no one is optimistic about Japan. Those real powers can easily calculate the losses of Japan's war, and the subsequent economic situation of Japan is not optimistic.

The war ended like this, and the sea in the Far East returned to peace, but the competition between all parties in the Far East continued. The Japanese finally won the war. Although they were very conflicted and did not get much actual benefits, they won in the end. Almost the entire Japanese society was celebrating the victory. They fantasized about how much impact it would have after so much silver flowed into the Japanese market, and how much benefit Japan could gain after the Qing Dynasty opened so many ports!

"After we settled our debt, the amount of silver left is expected to not exceed 30 million taels, or less than 5 million pounds of funds." Nishiyuanji Kou said helplessly. "If the Chinese people knew that we had paid such a big price but only received this benefit, would they kill you and me with a knife?" After saying that, Nishiyuanji Kou glanced at Hirofumi Ito.

"I know what you mean, but no matter how difficult it is, our plan will still be carried out! As long as I am still alive, this plan will not be terminated!" Ito Hirofumi's calm words revealed an unshakable determination! This cannot be changed and must be implemented.

"What if there is financial turmoil? The recent financial market is a bit strange." Nishiyuanji Gong wanted to make a fuss, but he didn't stick to his opinion. I guess if he persisted, the two of them would really become enemies.

"Then we can only rely on the British, but it takes time for the British to mobilize a large amount of funds. The real enemy may have started to take action. The losses are certain, but it is just a matter of how much. As long as our plan can be successful, then this loss is nothing now." Hirobuki Ito said.

The Japanese finally felt the turmoil in the financial market, but knowing it does not mean there is a way to resolve it. When the two sides were negotiating, the silver price in Japan fluctuated significantly. The silver price that had been falling suddenly increased, and then reached its historical peak under the influence of all parties!

This is just the beginning. The fluctuations in silver prices will definitely affect other precious metals, and the changes in precious metals will naturally affect the currency. In this era when currencies and precious metals can be directly exchanged, when paper money changes, people will find ways to collect precious metals. Such a series of actions have led to serious turmoil in the Japanese financial market!

While taking advantage of this period, Ruprecht and his partners made at least £4 million in profits from the Japanese financial market! The large amount of capital movements made the entire Japanese financial market chaotic like a tsunami, directly leading to the bankruptcy of a large number of Japanese companies. After such trouble, the little money left by the Japanese was basically filled into this big hole.

Although at the beginning, financial tycoons from all sides made rapid progress, with the intervention of British capital, some people who did not have time to run were bitten hard at the end of the stage. After watching the gradual return to normal financial markets after a period of fluctuation and adjustment, Ruprecht shook his head helplessly. The game in the Far East is temporarily over for him. There are still a lot of things waiting for him to do!

After the negotiations, the Japanese master stationed in Germany had repeatedly proposed to Baron Vittorio to buy new warships, but in the end there was no result. On the one hand, Ruprecht abides by the agreement between Russia, and on the other hand, Brom-Foss shipyard has no extra production capacity. If the ships reserved for some warships that are about to be produced, the shipyard is now at full capacity. In order to deal with this situation, Bavaria even organized a large amount of labor to go to Hamburg. Unless Ruprecht put his hands into other companies, the production capacity will not be greatly improved in the short term.

The most important thing for Ruprecht now is the future naval bidding. Two Brandenburg-class battleships have started construction, and Ruprecht has not got a piece of the pie. However, Ruprecht doesn't care. He cares about a larger order! Because at this time, the new naval gun has been successfully studied! The Russians are still trustworthy, and they provided samples and drawings of the 12-inch l40 naval gun and the 10-inch l40 naval gun in advance. After a period of exploration and experimentation, the German imitations of these two artillery were finally created!

The tragic 280mm and 210mm cannons are finally swept into the garbage dump of history by Ruprecht, and the history of Krupp's monopoly on naval military supplies will be ended. After a while, Ruprecht will have to go to Berlin again and finalize this matter directly.
