C2247 The Fiihrer's Confidence

In Xiao Letian's study room, behind the gigantic walnut desk, the head of the Hua Clan was writing furiously, issuing a series of orders at top speed.

Wang Huaiyuan, Sima Yun and the rest were sitting opposite of Xiao Letian, quietly waiting. They did not look anxious or impatient, but Bing Tai, Luo Huo and his irritable general were pacing around the room restlessly.

There were many times when Luo Huo wanted to say something, but when he saw the leader's silent expression, not a single word came out of his mouth.

After signing the last military order, Xiao Letian rubbed his temples and looked at Bing Tai who was like a hot pot ant, and suddenly laughed.

"Alright, you can ask whatever it is you want. You'll suffocate to death if you wait any longer!"

"Father!" Since the British despise us, let's go to Prussia! There are our friends there, there are places where we can use our martial arts! "

"I don't believe it. As long as we can display our might in the war between France and Japan, won't we be able to get an admission? Must we exchange the letter of credence? "

"This is really bullying!" This is too bullying! "

Xiao Letian had already guessed that Bing Tai would say these kinds of things, so he shook his head: "Are you looking down on me? Who dares to look down on you! A single Benjamin was enough to represent all of Britain? "Childish..."

"You have to remember, people live to solve all kinds of problems, not to avoid hiding! "You ran into a pile of dust in England, and now you want to leave?"

"Britain is the Ocean Empire. No matter how well you fought in the war on the mainland, they would never respect you!" So what if Pufa wins? In the high seas, it will be easy for the British to outlaw you! "

"So, if we don't get the letter of exchange from Britain, we will never leave this place. Only by making the UK recognize that our Chinese race is as independent as theirs, we must build a relationship, and then I can go and fight the law in peace!"

"The logic is that simple. If we get the recognition of the United Kingdom, we can declare war on France in the name of the country. This is too important. It concerns the distribution of the final spoils of war!"

"My boy, do you think it would be better to go to war as a Prussian mercenary? Is it better to fight as a nation? "

"Benjamin has thought about this a lot, and it's a long way from here. If the Europeans hold back on their words and say that we are a group of warlords, then even if we win the Franco-Prussian war in the end, we won't be able to reach the negotiating table. The final peace talks have nothing to do with us!"

"We can only get a part of the Prussian war reparations. Is that what we want?"

"But getting a country's title is different. At the end of the war, we can be on equal footing with these Europeans, and we can bargain with the French. The result of the war is much more than a warlord, isn't it?"

"That's right!" Bing Tai impatiently shouted, "I understand this logic, but we won't let go even if we have to! It's not like we can hold the knife to his neck!"

Xiao Letian said as he reached out his hand, "Lower your voice. Aren't you afraid that there will be copper pipes in the house to eavesdrop on us?"

After Wang Huaiyuan heard this, he hurriedly raised his head and replied, "No! "I can use my professional dignity to guarantee that I've already checked thrice and there's absolutely no way to listen in …"

"Haha, alright, alright. I saw that everyone was too nervous and it was just a little joke …" Xiao Letian took out a bottle of sherry from the wine cabinet behind him and poured wine and ice for everyone.

"Actually, the current situation is not that difficult to resolve. As the Prime Minister of a country, Benjamin actually personally went up and said that it was extremely rude. This means that he has already felt a deep sense of crisis! "

"The royal family doesn't need to think about it. The news that came from the The Duke of Newkes can prove that the Queen is very close to us, but due to the rules of the British Constitution, she can't speak directly. This way, the royal family can remain neutral.

"The attitude of the royal family can affect a large part of the nobility. These people are closely related to the British capitalists. They are even members of the capitalists …"

"Then let me draw a big cake first. My food company is not just one or two restaurants. This is a food group. I want to open up Chinese cuisine to the capitals of Europe and even the United States!"

"With our Chinese craftsmanship, it would be strange if we didn't make money! "Furthermore, this is a joint-stock company. If it is done well, it can be listed on the stock market. Once it becomes a listed company, all of the shareholders would have become our interest community!"

"As long as we don't declare war on Britain, don't go against Britain and, on the surface, respect the UK, will these shareholders, who hope to make money from their equity, share with us?"

"This is my trump card!" What Benjamin was most afraid of was that I would bribe all the capitalists in the Kingdom through commercial means. That was his weakness! That's why he's fighting me like a dog! "

"Such a person who looks fierce but looks weak at heart. I am able to force a leader of a country to come up and fight with me. Do you think this is still a humiliation?"

"Ha ha-ha, knowledge, this is knowledge! The same thing, if you think about it now, will you guys still be angry? "

Sigh … Bing Tai scratched his head, "Oh, oh … "It really is like that. When father said it, my heart instantly cleared up!"

"Right, as long as it's clear!"

Xiao Letian gulped down half a cup of sherry before continuing, "Actually, we have already gained a portion of the initiative. We have already taken over the royal family and nobility, and some of the capitalists are also very interested in our future … Most importantly, we already have a certain say in the European press, which means that we have control of the public opinion! "

"Although the citizens' power is small, their numbers are large. They still have votes in their hands, and their preferences can determine which party will come to power. That's why I have to try my best to please the British citizens!"

"Spending so much money to advertise the Chinese is not a waste of time! Benjamin is already afraid, he knows that at this moment, many of the methods he had prepared are useless, and there are not many that he can use to deal with me … "

"Sprinkle dirty water on us and slander us as bandit warlords. This is to block the door of the negotiation and force us to return without any results. If I can't break this little trick, what kind of head of state do I have to be? I might as well retire … "

"Let him continue to act so arrogantly for a few more days. He will eventually beg to see me!"
