Hart in modern Chinese history but the famous, he once master China Customs for up to 48 years, as the United Kingdom to expand in China's interest can be said to be set up for those successes. At that time, he served as Deputy Secretary of Guangzhou Customs tax, that is the Deputy Commissioner of customs. Heard the matter reported in China, another United Kingdom — Thailand Lee. What is Thailand Lee? Premier National Affairs mills have a body called the "Customs total tax Division", that is, the Chinese customs. Since then China has semi-colonial society, part of the sovereignty has lost, and in addition the sharply, forced entry into the world of capitalist development track, the lack of dialogue between people of the world, so the body from its beginning, it is managed by foreigners. Thailand Lee was the first Secretary General of the customs tax. Thailand Lee was born in 1832, 10 years old when he came to China, is a famous Chinese General. 1855-United Kingdom to Shanghai Vice Consul, later members of the Shanghai customs. This man a mouthful of Jiangsu and Zhejiang Mandarin, often wearing a robe-vest, China is very familiar with Chinese Affairs. United Kingdom Thailand Lee is in the interests of the General representative of China. He immediately report this to the domestic situation. United Kingdom heard the news too much. Why?, if so, can the Chinese Navy control in your hands. Thus, the United Kingdom Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Department of the Navy has instruction immediately help Thailand Li of China in the United Kingdom to purchase warships, and the establishment of a "fleet" in English. Lee Thailand news feedback gave Yik 䜣, finalized two silver 65 million to purchase seven warships. The process of buying ships very smooth. 1862, October 27, the Qing Government to ratify the seven warships were named as: "Beijing", "China", and "Xiamen", "Guangdong Province" and "Tianjin", "js" and "Tillamook de en" number and a triangular longqi banner for warships. At the same time, also contributed to several hundred soldiers serving on ships. Lee Thailand also recruited 600 United Kingdom Navy officers and served on the ship. As said, I'm out of money for warships, you get money to help me, something to which this is done. Alas, this country, even if the weak to protect sovereignty, you cannot imagine what things will be. Purchased finished warships Thailand Lee, he in 1863 on 16 January, to find a place called ' think this naval officer of the United Kingdom, the two signed a contract. ' Who is thinking this?

But the man in the second opium war, in Nanjing and Taiping Army fought a battle, he was captain of the "Fury". Lee Thailand and think this sign a copy of any contract, this contract all 13. Main contents are: first, the Chinese emperor must think this appointment as Commander in Chief of the Chinese Navy to have jurisdiction for all vessels of China, for a term of four years to complete, and no other term other foreigners as Commander-in-Chief; Secondly, think this only complied with by the Thailand conveyed the will of the Chinese emperor, other departments are not complied with, think of the right to refuse any order; third, the fleet is made up of Thailand and AIT SI Li firm jurisdiction foreign Navy, on the appointment of outsiders, hanging outside banner, Chinese officials shall not intervene; fourth, Li Thailand should immediately receive enough lines 4 years by the members of the salaries and shipping expenses. The contract was a myth. The Chinese Government to spend money to buy ships had become foreign Navy. The contract not only violates the Qing government and Hart was originally purchased agreement made, even the basic business ethics do not speak, showing only the colonial hegemony and arbitrary. In fact, Thailand and think of the signing of the contract's purpose is to control the Chinese Navy. Because, at that time, the Qing Government already has a commanding officer Gordon United Kingdom "discriminating", if this naval fleet, two armed all total tax Division management command, you can better control the political situation in China. Lee Thailand and thinking of this contract, even heard that too far, Thailand Lee said: "you do this is intolerable and harmful!" this contract, the Chinese Qing Government initially did not know. In 1863, 4 April, thinking this led the fleet set sail towards China. Lee Thailand before ' thinking the fleet arrives in China, and Hart in 1863 arrived in Beijing in June. Thailand to Jing Li, Qing Government after it is discovered that he and thinking of this contract. So, think of this event! Qing government officials on this event very shocked. Li Hongzhang said: "if one person makes Thailand Lee designed the main threat to the requirements, future party long. "Yi Li 䜣 and Thailand dispute of up to 1 month, finally firmly abolished the 13 contracts, reformulated the shipping regulations, provides as follows: first, fleet command by Chinese people, think of this as his Deputy, and presided over by the Chinese fleet issues; and second, the fleet of foreign troops by thinking this is restrain, on which the unlawful harassment of people and things that should be punished; third, at any time choose the Chinese boat sailing on back-to-peer technology to learn, to think the Governor with the shipowners ' and backing of the preamble, the black coaches. These new provisions, thinking this was not agreed with. 1863 on 18 October, Lee Thailand and think this together to the Prime Minister of the French National Affairs, submitting to insist on fulfilment of its private contract clause 13. The Qing Government not stupid to even numbers are not read. Yik 䜣 think I'm weak, there is a bottom line, China's military power cannot be controlled in the hands of foreigners, and this is the bottom line for me! I spend money to you who establish a fleet, United Kingdom, is a great joke! I would rather take the fleet to dissolve cannot promise you the United Kingdom's unreasonable demands. Also really let Yi Xin to say. United Kingdom Embassy legations said, abolition of Thailand and Francis Lee this contract, I lowered United Kingdom flag to return. This is a typical threats! deadlock when both parties, the United States, the new Ambassador Po Ann Chen took office via London, on this matter in both countries to use his good offices. Finally, the decision to dissolve the vessel fleet, 7 ships sailed back to the United Kingdom auction; China Qing Government to 600 United Kingdom Navy officers and toll rates, in addition to ' think of the 1 million two silver labour. At this point, make boil boiling扬扬 's ' think of this event. In this event, the Qing government in a buy-one-selling, plus send money, white spent two silver 70 million. On this matter, the Qing Government is more and more gas, finally get a fleet, that Pavilion, really unlucky! so, bring the total in Thailand Lee customs tax Division duty free. Customs and excise tax Division, but a great body oil, after being removed from Office Thailand Lee, was not good, "the word color, has God doeth Italian ju", in 1864, January 9, en route to Shanghai and Hong Kong pessimistic a home. These are ' thinking this event came from. This event warning future generations: If the national sovereignty of weak to resist all official, can't say what strange things will happen!
