Meeting with Hitler, who was still a little young, allowed Eder to reap the benefits of enough. Of course, this is an investment in the future. And for now, Romania has reaped enough benefits. After more than half a month of negotiations, the Ruder Finn mutual aid contract was finally successfully concluded.

In fact, for such a contract that is beneficial to both parties, it is also the right thing to negotiate. Because this is good enough for both parties, Romania has the market and capital that Germany urgently needs at the moment, and Germany has the technical equipment that Romania needs, so the negotiations between the two parties are quite fast.

So when Eder returned to Berlin, the outcome of the negotiations was presented to him. The part about disclosure is the Treaty of Economic and Trade Friendship between the two countries. In this treaty, Romania and Germany strengthened their economic complementarity in response to their respective needs.

Germany imports oil, automobiles, grain, and other agricultural products from Romania, and exports metallurgy, chemical industry, mining equipment, machine tools, and other equipment to strengthen economic and trade exchanges between the two countries. In addition, Germany will also open up a variety of restricted export technologies such as alloy manufacturing, chemical technology, mining technology, shipbuilding, etc., and will also open up to Romania.

However, in order to make more profits for its own companies, the German side insisted on taking a stake in Romanian companies with these new technologies. The Romanian negotiators, after consulting Eder, agreed to their demands.

So eventually these technologies will appear in Romania as joint ventures, which will also strengthen the Romanian industrial base. As for giving up some profits, it is also harmless in Eder's opinion, after all, Germany has already taken out the coffin board, and he should not be so stingy. Moreover, these technologies have an immediate effect on the strengthening of Romania's national power.

Among them is tungsten alloy technology, which has always been coveted by Eder. German tungsten alloy cutter bits have always been a guarantee of the excellence of its machinery and equipment, and this technology is as important as Romania. If it weren't for the fact that the poor couldn't open the pot, the Germans would not have been able to share this technology.

So for this mutual economic assistance contract, Eder is very satisfied. And what made him even more satisfied was yet to come, that is, the terms of Derot's secret military exchanges. Because it is a guarantee for the comprehensive strengthening of Romanian military technology so that it does not fall behind the times.

Under the terms of this secret exchange, Germany and Romania would jointly develop new tanks, airplanes, artillery, submarines, warships, and other weapons. In addition, Germany will send 1,000 officers to Romania in the next five years to study various military cooperation plans between the two sides, such as armored operations, aircraft use, logistics support, ship command and coordination, and communication secrecy.

In the face of fruitful negotiations, Eder's trip to Germany can be said to be very satisfied, and there could not be a better result. For this reason, he commended the Minister of Foreign Affairs Kostel and the Chief of the General Staff, General Fereitt, for the negotiations.

"I am very satisfied with the outcome of this negotiation, and I can say that the results of this round trip to Germany alone are enough to make this visit worthwhile."

Edel looked at the results in front of him, full of joy and praised the two senior military and political officials in charge of the negotiations.

In the face of Eder's praise, Foreign Secretary Kostle, who was in charge of open negotiations, did not agree. "Your Majesty, this negotiation is actually more of an urgent need on the part of Germany. Because I can feel the urgency of the Germans for this negotiation. Many times it could have been discussed, but the German side relented when it achieved its own expectations. ”

After Foreign Minister Kostel voiced his doubts, the Chief of the General Staff, Admiral Ferreuit, voiced his doubts. "This also happened in my negotiations with the German military, at first I thought it was the importance that Germany attached to Romania, but then I felt like I had to complete a task at some point. This makes me wonder if Germany is afraid that if something is exposed, the negotiations will reach an impasse. ”

"I have that suspicion too."

Faced with the doubts of the Foreign Secretary and the Chief of the General Staff, a thought suddenly flashed through Eder's mind, and he took over and spoke. "The countries that can stand in the way of negotiations are definitely the countries that pose a threat to Romania."

"It's the Soviet Union."

"It's Russians."

The Foreign Secretary and the Chief of the General Staff mean the same thing, although they say different things.

There were several countries that could pose a threat to Romania, but the only one that could trouble the negotiations was the Soviet Union. Don't look at the current public opinion in Romania that does not care about the Soviet Union, and often preaches that the Soviets are Romania's defeated generals. But the sober military and political top brass knew how heavy the Soviet threat to Romania was. Even the only country that Romania needs to guard against at the moment is the Soviet Union.

Moreover, Germany has a history of secret negotiations with the Soviet Union, you must know that before the Genoa Conference, Germany and the Soviet Union negotiated the Treaty of Raballo. Unlike Hitler's anti-Soviet regime, the current relationship between Germany and the Soviet Union can be described as very close, and it is very natural for the two isolated countries to reunite and warm.

Unlike others, Eder was certainly clear about the secret Soviet-German military cooperation in the twenties and thirties. The purpose of his visit this time was to weaken the military cooperation between the Soviet Union and Germany, but it seems that the effect is not very effective at present, and it is obvious that the German side has the intention of marrying one daughter and two marriages.

"So what are we going to do? Do I still need to sign the contract? ”

Foreign Minister Kostel couldn't help but ask. It's not that he's messing around, it's a conscious test of Edel's attitude towards it.

"This is just speculation, not a basis."

Edel said, picking up the negotiated contract and talking. "And the outcome of this negotiation is very important for us, it is to strengthen our country, so I will not allow the execution of the contract to be affected."

It is obvious that Eder is using this to express his attitude, because sooner or later the secret cooperation between the Soviet Union and Germany will be exposed, which may affect some opinions in the country. Eder is now making a statement, and no matter what his views are, they cannot affect the outcome of this negotiation.

In the face of Eder's statement, the two people present nodded again and again. "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, no one can affect this cooperation."

After sending the two away, Edel couldn't help but sigh. Soviet-German cooperation in the twenties and thirties, which even Romania could not prevent. Because Romania could not give Germany what it needed.

As a matter of fact, the negotiations on secret military cooperation between the Soviet Union and Germany have come to an end, and military cooperation between the Soviet Union and Germany is about to begin. Once the Soviet military strengthened, Romania needed to face more pressure, which Eder had to face. So the next visit also becomes more important.
