Until today, Xiao Letian finally understands that traversers are not omnipotent, and their golden fingers can affect ordinary people, but for those famous people in history, especially those legendary figures who can change a nation or even the world, the so-called traverser halo is a fart.

In this era, there are two characters who can shock Xiao Letian's soul, one is Zeng Guofan, the leader of the Hunan army, and his set of hidden dragon theories made Xiao Letian dumbfounded.

And today, the confrontation between Bismarck and Xiao Letian made him find the awe-inspiring feeling when he faced Zeng Guofan, which can be said to be the coercion of the aura of a great man, although the aura of the traverser can resist one or two, but it is just to resist it.

More often than not, it is these great men who really exist in history, who ruthlessly crush Xiao Letian, an intruder, and they have already taken the lead in terms of momentum.

"Heroes, a country, a nation, and even an era all need heroes, and only heroes can save the selfish and infighting human ......"

"Yes, human beings have never been a united group, they are selfish, they fight each other, they think very highly of themselves, they are arrogant...... We can use any negative word to describe these people, but unfortunately it is these people who make up our society......"

"Push open the window and look at this bustling street, you Chinese said an old saying that is too right, the bustling people in the world are all for profit, the world is bustling for profit, ordinary people will only stare short-sightedly at the steak in front of them, and will not think about how the steak of a country and nation should be served......"

Bismarck sighed, "When the whole nation falls into the internal friction of Yanzhòng, let alone rise, I am afraid that it is difficult to even protect itself, foreign enemies can easily provoke internal strife, and when others are developing rapidly, the internal strifeists will not stop retreating......"

"This is the reality, the reality that the Prussian nation has encountered before... It is a pity that the Chinese have also encountered this problem, and now every second you delay is a second of rapid development of other nations, and time is as precious as gold..."

Bismarck no longer had the aura of an iron-blooded prime minister at this time, and at the moment when Xiao Letian lost his temper, he had already become a kind neighbor.

Xiao Lotian didn't speak, and raised his head to drain a large glass of beer, which was half a liter. He couldn't answer Bismarck's words at all, and the heavy topic left him speechless.

Bismarck looked at Xiao Letian and said softly, "A country, a nation, if you want to rejuvenate, it is not only necessary to improve science and technology and develop the army, but more importantly, it is necessary to integrate domestic resources and eliminate internal friction first." And for this difficult task, it is the heroes who are needed, not the bears......"

"I think you've heard some rumors and stories about me, when I was a young student at the University of Berlin, I fought 27 gladiatorial fights, and when I trained my own farm farmer to be the king of Berlin, I almost supported a new king......"

"When I was young, I was extremely aggressive, partly because of my personality, but also because of my perception of politics...... Did you know that human beings always worship the strong, and God has given each person a different character, and if you have studied Darwin's writings, you will understand that the animal race is united by the strong......"

"Yes, I am indeed the iron-blooded prime minister of Prussia, and I have not even allowed the civil servants to meet the king alone, but I have shown absolute strength in front of all Europeans. But I have my helplessness......"

"If I am a weakling, how can I deter the careerists at home, how can I carry out the reforms, and the endless internal friction can only slow down the pace of German revival...... Oh, I remember you just said a term, the first industrial revolution, I don't know how you came up with such a word, but I think you have a good point......"

"The rise of Britain is to catch the first train of industrialization, their powerful Royal Navy is just the appearance, what really makes Britain strong is their industrial production capacity, if there is no large number of cheap industrial products around the world to make gold and silver, do you think Britain can become an empire on which the sun never sets?"

"But now, the scientific and technological development of human society has changed greatly, starting from the American Civil War alone, many new technologies have impressed us, telegraph technology, railway network, hot air balloons, ironclad warships...... I firmly believe that these new military technologies will definitely be transformed into the productive forces of a country, and our factories will benefit from it immediately......"

"The world is undergoing great changes, and the common people are ignorant of it, and it is up to us, the leaders, to lead the way, so I would rather make myself an unreasonable iron-bearded chancellor, and I will not let the ignorant and short-sighted people delay the process of the rise of the German nation......"

Xiao Letian was completely speechless, this is the real Bismarck in history, iron and blood is not his nature, the tough appearance is just a means of integrating resources, this is the real politician, without his wrist, how could Prussia win three battles and three victories.

Xiao Lotian was speechless for a long time, and Bismarck also gave him time to think, when two glasses of beer were down, Xiao Lotian spoke, "Okay, you persuaded me, let's talk about your conditions, I think you are not just here to drink today, right?"

"Well, you are very honest, this is the basis for our cooperation......" Bismarck rubbed his beard and said with a smile, "Germany needs a market, a very large market, we can't compare to Britain, we don't have so many overseas colonies, but after the war, German capital needs the market to dump ......"

"As far as I know, the industrialization of the Qing Dynasty has not been completed until now, and the domestic goods are still in the process of handicraft workshops, and a lot of wealth has been earned by Britain and France, but even if they are allowed to make money, it is only a drop in the bucket of the huge wealth of China......"

"Think about it, I give you the greatest support, and the cooperation between us can be carried out in depth, do you want military exchanges? Do you want the latest lathes? Do you need our university to open its doors? Not only that, but I can also provide you with political support, and make you a recognized political ...... in international law."

"And all I want is for the Qing Kingdom to open the country for us to let our German merchants enter, how about this deal? I think it's fair......

Xiao Letian was moved, and he finally knew that in this era, not every European country wanted to go to war with China, and not all the great powers had figured out unequal treaties to grab wealth.

At this time, it was still a very difficult thing for Europe to send troops to China, and no one had the luxury of occupying Chinese territory, except for the Russian bear. Even the British occupation of Hong Kong was in the name of Lend-Lease, and there was no permanent occupation.

Bismarck's mention is too reasonable, on the surface, the Germans can indeed earn real money from the Chinese through business practices, but this is a general trend that cannot be changed at all. Britain and France have made your money, but they don't give you anything in return, while Germany has to give you at least a political experience, and there are even exchanges in science and technology and military affairs.

Xiao Letian would be a fool if he didn't agree, but considering diplomatic conventions, he had to be a little reserved and pretend to hesitate, which is also a common practice in negotiations.

"Oh, Prime Minister, you really hit me in the underbelly, and it seems that you know exactly what we need...... Well, before I agree to your conditions, I would like to emphasize that in the upcoming Austro-Prussian war, I hope that my officer corps will be able to participate in the war......"

Bismarck's brow tightened when he heard this, and he thought about it for a moment and said, "I really don't know why you're sure we're going to have a war with Austria, although our relationship is a bit strained right now...... Well, I can give you a compromise promise, if there is a war, I will allow you to watch the war, but I will not allow you to shoot, this is my bottom line......"

"Dear Shaw, don't you want these lads to have a good rest, why do you continue to sacrifice when you have lost a lot of talent in the conflict with the French?"

Ay...... Xiao Letian sighed in his heart, "Sacrifice? How can the rejuvenation of a nation be possible without sacrifice?" Okay, I accept your conditions, we will watch the battle at close range but will not participate in the war, this is a condition that cannot be discounted, you must know that my boys need to exercise, and there are too many lessons that we need to make up in China......

"Very good, the deal ......" Bismarck raised his glass, "Cheers to the smooth cooperation between our two peoples..."

The next negotiations were much smoother, and the Prussian side opened its doors to accept Chinese students, as long as the Sino-German Foundation provided the money, it would be open to acceptance.

In terms of military science and technology, Bismarck did not hide any smuggling, and the Prussian government allowed the Nobel Explosives Factory and Mauser Rifles to build factories in the Ryukyus, and even the ironclad warships that might be built in the future also reached a preliminary cooperation intention.

Xiao Lotian looks very calm on the surface, but his heart is already happy. He knew that the German nation was very peculiar, for example, their navy, although it was now weak, but their technology was not weaker than that of the British.

Historically, the naval battles between Germany and Britain were not at all due to the performance of the ships, but the defeat of the Germans was entirely due to the unique geographical conditions and the sheer consumption of numbers.

As long as the Germans' factories are open, and as long as Xiao Lotian can get strong support from the German government, a strong Ryukyu Navy will not be a dream at all.

The more Xiao Letian thought about it, the more excited he became, the German Bismarck, the Scharnhorst, and the German submarines like wolves, these are all militaristic weapons that Xiao Letian dreams of.

Well, this is a bit of a stretch, these are all weapons during World War II, but the scars in every Chinese heart, the two battleships Dingyuan and Zhenyuan, are also made in Germany, and the industrial level of this country never disappoints.

After a full four hours of negotiations, they also had a simple lunch in the garden in the middle, and even the tiger girls made a few good Chinese side dishes, and they couldn't stop picking their thumbs when they ate them.

The women's craftsmanship is not for nothing, when Bismarck left the garden, Xiao Lotian had already received a note written by the iron-blooded prime minister himself, and with this note, Xiao Lotian could go to the Volkeng shipyard to buy four clippers.

"It's great, with these new ships, it's hard not to get rich, although this trip to Europe has shed a lot of blood, but it has finally paid off..."
