"Karl, don't you think China will cooperate with Britain?" Uncle Eun was eating dried meat and drinking rum, and although the topic was very serious, he seemed quite casual when he said this.

"For now, this is already an exchange of two completely different economic orders, and I don't think that cooperation between China and the UK can outweigh competition at this time." Uncle Ma gave a judgment, he pointed to the wine glass in Uncle En's hand, "Rum is a good example." ”

No matter what kind of product is endowed with nobility and precious prestige, as long as the Chinese Dynasty begins to produce it, the price of such a product will skyrocket by 3,000 feet. Even if prices don't drop that much, production will skyrocket at a rapid rate.

Rum is a distilled liquor produced from sugarcane molasses, also known as sugar liquor, rum, and rum. Native to Cuba, it has a sweet, fragrant taste. Rum is made from sugar cane pressed from sugar cane, fermented, and distilled. According to different raw materials and different brewing methods, rum can be divided into: rum liquor, rum old liquor, light rum, rum liquor, strong rum, etc., containing 38% ~ 50% alcohol, amber, brown, and colorless.

In 1791, the sugar mill was destroyed due to the riots of the Haitian slaves, and Cuba monopolized the export of sugar to Europe.

In the middle of the 19th century, with the introduction of the steam engine, sugar cane plantations and rum distilleries increased in the Republic of Cuba, and in 1837 Cuba laid railways and introduced a series of advanced technologies, including those related to winemaking, and the Spanish suzerainty decided to take measures to vigorously develop the sugar industry of the Republic of Cuba so that the Republic of Cuba could export sugar. The increased availability of rum in Europe has established a pretty good reputation. There is a sizable audience in Europe.

However, after 1870, Chinese rum emerged on the rise, not only in terms of taste and taste, but also in terms of price much lower than Cuban rum. This cost-effective rum has beaten Cuban rum in Europe and even in the United States. Cuba can only use part of its own land to grow sugarcane, and the area of sugarcane planted in China is several times the area of the whole Cuba. In this kind of consumer goods, China does not hesitate to compete at low prices.

Uncle En agrees with this very much, and Europe was once very eager to open up the Chinese market. Now Europe has to face a situation, that is, Chinese goods are attacking the European market. Uncle En took a sip of rum, and then said slowly: "If it is the capitalists in Europe, their strategy of price cutting competition is a method that has to be implemented at a critical moment, but for China, this seems to be a kind of national policy for them. ”

"China has seized too much land through the war, and the Chinese are more capable of managing land than Europeans can imagine. Needless to say, Sudan in Africa has already exclaimed that China can grow crops in the desert. Britain sold North American land because they couldn't defeat the Chinese army there, but before that, the North American colonies had been losing money for too long. The same is true for Alaska and the northeastern corner of Asia. For the Russians and the British, those regions had long been not their wealth, but their baggage. But as you say, China grows very good ice and snow grapes in North America, and the wine is irresistible to the financiers. Uncle Ma made full use of the information provided by Uncle En, recalling the deliciousness of the wine, Uncle E couldn't help but shake the wine glass slightly, and the amber rum swirled gently in the wine glass.

Uncle Ma continued: "This shows that China's state-led model has further liberated the level of productive forces, which is more like a death knell for the current rulers of Europe." ”

Uncle En agrees with Uncle Ma's judgment that the degree of liberation of China's productive forces is so high that it is unimaginable to cause shocks in the upper echelons of Europe. Why the Chinese can magically turn a place that Europeans can't run well into a land of abundance, without citing the example of North America and the northeastern corner of Asia. Sudan is so close to Europe, but it was only after China arrived in Sudan that it became a land that could produce a lot of money-making products.

"Why? Why is this happening? "This is a question that is often asked by the upper echelons of Europe.

"From the perspective of the present, an economic crisis of unprecedented scale is brewing. Both the East and the West are facing this crisis. It depends on which side of the crisis breaks out first. Uncle Ma said, at this time his eyes seemed to be flashing, "Moore beard, maybe we can see a world war with our own eyes." ”

Uncle Eun continued to shake the wine glass gently, and the amber rum swirled in the wine glass at a faster speed, and even a small swirl appeared in the center of the syrup, "Carl, do you think Weezer has already made such a judgment?" ”

Weeser did not make such a judgment, and after reading the written report sent back by Li Xin when he left Germany, Weeser believed that the Eleventh Russo-Turkish War was very likely to cause a tragic bloody storm in Europe. The attitude of the British was somewhat excessive, and the attitude of the Germans was also incomprehensible.

Weeser now hated that he had read too little history books, and he knew about the Three Emperors Alliance, and he also knew that the purpose of the Three Emperors Alliance was to isolate France in order to maintain Germany's great advantage over France. This kind of intelligence and judgment is not a big deal, and anyone who has some knowledge of politics can make such a judgment. Moreover, with Prime Minister Bismarck's hand, the establishment of the Three Emperors Alliance is not a particularly difficult problem.

But what Weeser didn't expect was that the Prime Minister's wrist was a little outrageous, and if he played with Russia to such a point that he forbade German banks to accept mortgages on Russian securities when Russia was in great need of fundraising, it would mean that Germany was openly abandoning Russia, which was very, very inappropriate for the allies.

Germany is more inclined to Austria between Russia and Austria, and if Germany does so, it will harm Austria's interests, and the chancellor will have some scruples. Now that the Prime Minister has done so without any scruples, Weeser can only make a judgment that the contradictions between the Austrians and Russia have intensified to the point where the Austrians are close to tearing their faces with Russia.

As far as current intelligence is concerned, this cannot be because of Russia's attack on the Otiman Empire, but must be because of Central Europe. However, China's intelligence capabilities are so weak that it is impossible to find out what kind of secret dealings Austria and Germany have in Central Europe. The Prime Minister must have promised Austria something on Central Europe, and Austria would not have reacted in this way without Germany's commitment.

"It's a really complicated issue!" Weeser had to make such a judgment when he was about to let go of this thinking.
