"Welcome, my friend!" When he saw Dewey, Prince Ruprecht took the initiative to come forward and give the other party a man's hug, which was not a fake, Dewey's performance in the Qing-Japanese War did give the prince a great help, and the prince was willing to provide material and honorary rewards for these helps. Although he had a basic guess about Dewey's purpose for coming here, the prince was willing to keep him as a friend.

"It is the honor of my life to be friends with you. His Royal Highness the Prince of Bavaria, In the face of the real top aristocracy and the real power in Germany, Dewey did not hold on to it at all. Said in a respectful tone.

Because it was the first time they met, Dewey came alone, and neither the U.S. Embassy nor Majifen accompanied Dewey here. So there can be some relaxation between the two. It's also more direct.

"Your Royal Highness, I have come here to collect debts." After a brief pleasantry, Dewey said with a slightly embarrassed face. "It's not about money."

"Say what you want." Ruprecht said calmly.

"Spain is also involved in the competition of two armored cruisers, which disturbs us, and even if only one of these two warships enters the battle sequence of the Spanish Navy, it will fuel the Spanish arrogance, and their oppression of the people of the colonies will be heavier and more cruel. Therefore, my country and I hope that you will sell your ships to other countries. Whoever it is. Dewey said.

"Someone helped you think of this, right? The Americans, who stripped the skulls of the Indians, practiced slavery, and acquired a lot of land by force from the Mexicans, are still embarrassed to say Spain? In the past, Spain was a villain who engaged in the slave trade, but now Spain is very honest, right? Ruprecht kept scolding in his heart. Aren't you afraid of being struck by lightning when you talk like this?

"If it's just a personal matter, I'm willing to do everything I can to help, but you're representing the U.S. government, and you don't have any proof from the U.S. government. This is a matter of great embarrassment to me. The slightest carelessness can have a devastating effect. Do you understand what I mean? ”

A personal relationship is a personal relationship. Business should also be done officially. I do owe you a favor, and if you ask for money, you will give it 20,000 pounds. It doesn't matter. But you want to change the fate of two powerful warships with a single sentence? That's impossible, although this thing is not as good as the atomic bomb of later generations, but it is not too much to say that it is a strategic weight.

"Friend, listen to me, this matter is not something you can get involved in, even if I agree to your request today, these two warships are in the hands of others, then in the future, once something happens, then you are the best scapegoat! Because you used your personal connections to change everything. If you succeed, you may not do much good, but if you fail, then this pot will definitely make you carry it. Think about it, will the person who instructed you to do this be held responsible? Ruprecht said earnestly.

"There are some things that can't be put on the table, and these things have to be done by someone after all." Dewey pondered for a moment, then said with some depression. Although he is not as old as the prince in the imperial family, there is a reason why Dewey can get to this status today! There is still a sense of political acumen, and if you want to talk about personal relationships, Roosevelt and others also have a relationship with the prince. Why didn't he come and kick himself out?

"If your country wants to buy it, then I can make a profit of 30,000 pounds! As a reward for your friendship and kindness to your country. What do you think? The prince then said that Ruprecht understood very well that the Americans would not buy foreign warships, at least in peacetime. It's just a good sale, but it can't be closed anyway.

"On my own behalf, I would like to thank you for your kindness, but I can only say sorry for the offer." Dewey smiled wryly. "Then I would like to ask, who are you going to sell the battleship to?"

"The one who pays the highest gets it." The prince's answer was very simple, he was a merchant on his side, and naturally he was the one who gave the highest offer. "As a friend, I sincerely suggest that you talk to me again about this matter with the official American personnel, I can help you, you can earn less in exchange for the friendship of the United States of America, but one thing you must remember is that everything we do must leave a trace of the official United States, and I cannot bear the blame."

"Okay, I'll pass on your comments to the relevant personnel. However, I hope that you will delay the sale of the ship as much as possible. After all, as a seller's market, the more buyers you have, the more profit you make. Dewey made a final request.

"As you wished, you convinced me." His Royal Highness the Prince at this time seemed to be very talkative.

"If I'm not mistaken, your country is waiting for Japan to enter this bid? There are still many people in the United States who have a good impression of Japan's blessing, and think that it is better for such a battleship to fall into the hands of the Japanese than to fall into the hands of the Russians, right? But the next sentence scared Dewey by Prince Ruprecht! The prince easily guessed what the Americans thought, and Dewey felt that he had no secrets to speak of in front of this prince.

"That's exactly what we're worried about, and I always think the Japanese are acting strangely, and although they cover it up well, I can't find a single loophole. If your country insists on getting Japan these two warships, then I must reach an agreement with the representatives of your country's rights, and I must have an official letter. If something goes wrong one day, I won't blame it, and I won't allow anyone to throw sewage on me! That's the bottom line! Prince Ruprecht emphasized.

Vaguely, Ruprecht seemed to understand something, and the originally isolated things began to be gradually connected by an invisible thread, and when these things gradually formed a clear chain of clues, the prince discovered the final consequences of this series of things, although the final result is not yet certain, but the prince already knows what he has to do. This may be a terrible result for some countries, but for Germany, it is not a good thing! Provided, of course, that after this incident broke out, Prince Ruprecht had to pluck himself clean!

"I'll reflect your opinion to the above. Thank you for the promise you just made. "Dewey got up and was ready to take his leave, now that Prince Ruprecht has laid out his bottom line, he can ask me to help, but he has to leave the credentials, although Dewey doesn't know what Ruprecht is worried about. But he believed that what the prince had done could not be without purpose!

The second more is served ~~~, and there is a more at night! Ask for Collection!!
