C233 German emissary

"Sir, these are the holiday funds requested by the three companies for the new year. Please give your approval …"

"Sir, this is the menu of the dishes prepared by the merchant that you have invited Hua Yang to the Coastal building. Please have a look …"

"Manager Fan has sent over the artificial salary application for the fence in the Special Administrative Region. I've placed it here for you …"

On the second floor of the Letian Firm, Xiao Letian had already been buried under countless of documents. He had to decide on various matters on the ground floor and even the menu to invite merchants was something that he had to decide.

Xiao Letian rubbed his temples, then said to the Dragon Lord who was giving him the documents: "For the new army, anything below five thousand silver coins to be approved by Xiao Hexin, Sima Yun and the others, it will all be up to you. You don't have to ask me for permission for everything … When I go back and tell old shopkeeper that the funds for the construction of the subsidiary facilities in the Industrial Zones have been allocated, he should make his own decision … "

At this time, Dragon Lord suddenly began to cough violently, as if he had been caught in the wind. Cough, cough... "I'll do it right away …" While coughing, Dragon Lord's face turned red.

"The hidden injuries have not healed yet? Didn't you say that you can slowly resolve it using your inner force? " Xiao Letian hurriedly stood up and lightly patted Dragon Lord's back.

Dragon Lord's injury was left behind from fighting with the patriarch of the Forbidden City a month ago. This old monster was indeed powerful, and the tyrannical strength of his palm caused Dragon Lord's lungs to secretly hurt. Even after a month of rest, he had still not fully recovered.

"Dragon Lord, how about we let Doctor Xi Yang have a look? It's a pity that Doctor Ba Ke has already gone to Beijing, if he was here, he might have a way … "

"Cough cough cough, there's no need to trouble yourself. No matter how skilled a foreigner is, it's impossible to treat Jianghu disease. Is this an internal injury or do you need to see a Chinese doctor …" Cough! Cough! Cough! I'll grab another set of medicine and use my internal energy to recuperate … "Cough, cough, cough …"

This time, Xiao Letian did not listen to Dragon Lord's words, his face was so deep that it had turned purple, yet he was still holding on, Xiao Letian rushed down the stairs and shouted, "Where's Wang Huaiyuan? "Have him come quickly to see me …"

At this time, the person in charge of the Punishment Court, Wang Huaiyuan, had just rushed over with a secret letter.

"Sir, you called me?"

"Immediately arrange for capable subordinates to bring Dragon Lord to Beijing and look for Ba Ke there …" Dragon Lord's injuries are really troublesome, let the western doctor see if there is a way to heal them … " At this time, the Dragon Lord still shook his head.

"No, no, no …" Cough cough cough, I can't leave, I'm leaving … cough cough cough, who will protect master … "

"Stop bullshitting, why are you still protecting me like this?" I have the protection of the new army here, if nothing major happens, quickly leave! " Seeing Xiao Letian's serious expression, Wang Huaiyuan knew that this was a military order, and without saying a word, he brought Dragon Lord downstairs.

"Let's go, Dragon Lord, to the carriage in the capital city will only take two or three days. We will be back after seeing the patient, there's no need to delay any longer, alright?" "Come, come …" They finally managed to persuade Dragon Lord to go downstairs.

After an hour, Wang Huaiyuan returned to report, "Rest assured my lord, over twenty brothers of the Discipline Hall have personally escorted Dragon Lord back to the capital, I guarantee that there won't be any mistakes … "Also, this is the latest intelligence report from Thirteen Niang …"

Xiao Letian opened the sealed silk silk scroll, and after looking at it two or three times, he was stunned: "The imperial government will send scholars from the same school to study in Europe and the United States after the new year? You even want to build a shipyard at Ma Wei? Zuo Zongtang was going to open a ship's political school in Fuzhou? Prussian Germany's emissary, Jonas, secretly met with a ghost six? "

Xiao Letian slapped the table fiercely, "Wang Huaiyuan, immediately send the order to Chun Sanshiniang, I want to meet this Jonas in secret! Quick, quick, quick, I have to see this German before the new year comes … This won't do, you two have secretly invited him to the Tanggu, even if it's forced on him, I'll invite him to spend the New Year here … "

Wang Huaiyuan did not expect this information to move Xiao Letian so much. Without saying anything further, he turned around and ran, and the sound of the stairs galloping was heard.

Xiao Letian rubbed his temples as he recalled the memories of his previous life carefully. He knew that Tongzhi had been living for five years, which was 1866. Fuzhou Ship Politics was the first school to train new navy talents. More than half of the talents in the Southern Ocean had studied here.

This was where the famous Zhiyuan Warship s in recent history originated from. This could really be considered as the cradle of China's modern navy.

"Today is a day to shed tears all over the world, I have the might of a robust navy," Xiao Letian recited the famous saying that made her eyes fill with tears, her heart filled with emotion. At the same time, he was also clear that next year's reform of the Qing Ting would definitely be much stronger than what it was in history. Because he, Xiao Letian, had come, and because he, Xiao Letian, had been a part of this competition for four years, it was impossible for the Qing Ting to not recognize the power of technology.

With Xiao Letian's sh * t stick stirring up trouble, the scale of the same school visit to Europe and the Fuzhou boat political academy would definitely be much larger than the actual history. The speed of Qing Ting's exploration would definitely increase, and for Xiao Letian, this was a huge opportunity.

"Hehe, you've finally decided to accept a little western learning? It's a pity that my reputation has already risen, these young people who are willing to explore Western Studies, who can't call me master? Qing Ting, you should just take your time, the bigger the better! "

"old shopkeeper... Manager Fan... Where is our second cabinet for printing? "Tell him to come see me …" In a moment, Fan Lian walked over.

"I'm personally in charge of printing. Your Journey to the West, your small deposit slip, it can't go wrong. I'm personally in charge of managing it …"

"Alright, alright, right now you have to prepare a batch of hardcover version of 'Journey to the West s' as an emergency. I will send 100 copies to the students, prepare another 500 copies and a private letter from me, think of a way to send them to Fujian and send them to Zuo Zongtang."

"Zuo Zongtang? We don't have any contact with him, so why can't we get in touch with him? "

"Don't worry, you can send a capable Second Manager to Shanghai to find the Red Summit Merchant Hu Xueyan. He has a close relationship with Zuo Zongtang, and can help him make the connection …"

The old shopkeeper nodded his head in agreement, "Yes yes yes, the Great Marshal Zeng has said before that with the development of our situation, the two Northern Xiao Nan Hu's God of Fortune situation is certain. We should contact him soon, I will do it right away!"

After sending off the old shopkeeper, Xiao Letian set his eyes on the last piece of information on the silk silk.

"Germany, how can I forget you? This year should be the Poo War, June or July? No matter what, victory in history was inevitable. Iron Blood Prime Minister Bismark, how are you? "Since this envoy dares to claim that he is an envoy from the Prussian Germany, then he will definitely listen to your orders …"

"The war of Pudan, the war of Poo War, the war of France, the three classic battles presided over by Iron Blood Prime Minister Bismark, made the Prussian Germany rise up in Central Europe.

"I will definitely not get involved in the Pudan War, but if the Poo War doesn't get involved, then I really will be unworthy of the nickname Chasing Hands. This big battle with Austria for the leadership is the best opportunity for Xiao Letian and Bismark to build good karma … "

Xiao Letian excitedly went around the room. Right now, he had already established a friendly relationship with the United States, but it was far from enough. Even if he were to cover his face with them, he would never be able to obtain any benefits. However, the doors of the new strong were still open, and now was the best time to establish cooperative relationships.

"I'll do it. Wealth comes from danger. Without investment, there will be no return. This venture capital is set in stone!"

Just as Xiao Letian made his decision, a tall foreigner with a lonely expression was silently walking on the main street.

He was a middle-aged man with typical Nordic features, with curly blond hair at the brim of his black hat and blue eyes as beautiful as the sea. This was the envoy sent by Prime Minister Bismark for Asian affairs.

Today was the third time Jonas had gone to the Head Office to request a meeting with the Prince Kung. She had already eaten a large hole in the door the previous two times.

The official establishment of diplomatic relations between Germany and the Great Qing was established after the Franco-Prussian War, that is, after 1870, and the real honeymoon period between the two countries was during the construction of the two Iron-armored Ship, Zhenyuan and Dingyuan, when Germany was one of the few countries in Europe that respected the Great Qing.

But in Tongzhi's four years, the Qing Dynasty did not even have a complete concept of the Prussian Germany. When the other foreign ambassadors told them that Germany had not been unified and that the entire Germany area was still in a state of separation, the arrogance of the Heavenly Empire rose again.

A small country without unity, so what if it was located in Europe? Didn't Xiao Letian say before, that even within Europe, there were different strong and weak. The powerful English and French could not be provoked, but some small countries did not even have an oceanic fleet, so their strength was not as good as Da Qing's.

To be honest, he did not even want to see this so-called secret envoy. If it wasn't for the fact that he had to close the door twice, would he still want to see Prince Kung? Not to mention the door, there were no windows.

The Prince Kung gave Jonas a few words of excuse, then turned her head to excuse herself to enter the palace so she could bring tea to send off her guests, causing Jonas to not be able to say anything.

Walking out of the Head Office, Jonas didn't get a sedan chair, she only had the sedan chair man follow behind him from a distance. He walked on the unfamiliar street alone, looking at the strange Oriental atmosphere, and thought about how she could help the Prime Minister expand his diplomatic space.

Just as he was walking past an alley in a daze, he was alarmed by a burst of noise inside the alley. Jonas's Chinese was not bad, and he could tell that a medical dispute had occurred in the alley.

"You bastard with the surname Huang, get out here right now …" "A good life is already in your hands. How can you be so deranged? Go to the officials. You and I will go to the officials …"

"Aiyaya, you bunch of people are really unreasonable. When I made my move earlier, I already told you that it was dangerous, and you all agreed to it. Why are you still reneging now?" "You guys are too unruly …"

"Bullshit!" You fart... We never agreed, we never agreed, it was just a simple eruption, how can we agree that you understand knives? "You are the murderer, you are the evil demon …"
