Although the future is beautiful, the reality of no money makes Joey even more painful.

In the context of no high-speed Internet, no global communications, no global logistics, and no world trade liberalization, the Internet economic model that wanted to fool a group of people to invest in themselves and rely on the eyes of consumers to make money did not exist in the 19th century.

With just one sentence of chicken soup, I made a lot of money... It's just a dream, the person who says it is crazy, the person who believes it is a fool, and the key point is that the label of a person who is stupid and has a lot of money has never been German.

In the past, present, and future, Germany will always be the world of the real economy, and it is capital, talent and resources that are fighting.

After carefully calculating his current situation, Joy didn't know whether to laugh or cry, in terms of the richness of funds, Germany is not as good as Britain, the United States, and France, and in terms of the richness of resources, Germany is not as good as Russia, the United States, Britain, and even the distant Qing Dynasty can throw Germany ten streets.

The only thing that Germany before 1914 gave Joey was that what was unique to Germany in this world should not be monetary wealth or natural resources, but Germans, German geniuses, a whole bunch of scientific, military and cultural geniuses.

It seems that the great German Empire, at this moment, poor, only has talent left for itself......

But as long as there are people, everything can be done!

"It's a big deal that after the New Year, I started selling patents, starting with the patent authorization of smokeless propellants, anyway, I have registered patents for single-base, double-base and three-base propellants, and in this world, I have applied for patents for all the propellants and explosives components that I can remember. Mr. Nobel, I have to say I'm sorry to you, it's a big deal that the Nobel Prize will be won in the future, and I will change my name to the Hohenzollern Prize. ”

"There are also various patents in the pharmaceutical industry, as long as I pay for them, I will authorize the transfer ....."

"And the alloy steel patents at hand, the patents on non-ferrous metals...."

"Electrical, chemical....."

Taking stock of the patented technology at hand, Joey suddenly felt good, he had no money there, and what he mastered was just another form of money, technology!

Holding a group of thinking people in the palm of their hands, far more important than monetary wealth and natural resources, and also capable of changing the world!

After making up his mind, Joey patted Louis on the shoulder vigorously and said with a smile, "Louie, please rest assured, not only will Professor Marburg and Mr. Lilinger get the experimental factory of their dreams, but the foundation will also build a research and development base in Berlin to support these people with German dreams." ”

"The foundation will fund the right space, the processing equipment, and all the necessary resources, including finance, logistics, etc. This R&D base is like a huge public research laboratory, and anyone with a dream can use these resources to achieve their dreams. ”

"Hey, Jojo, I said it takes a lot of money!" Louis was visibly frightened by Joey's sudden ambition.

"Hehe, money is not the problem, no one is the big problem, my dear Louie." Joey didn't have the slightest aristocratic demeanor, put his arm around the shoulders of Louis, who was obviously a head taller than him, and said with a smile.

"I was under the impression that my father had a fief in Adlershof, southeast of Berlin, and if I could, I would like to put a research base there, a real, open research base for experimental science."

"Close to His Majesty Frederick I's hunting castle?"

"Yes, it's Fort Kopenik." Joey nodded helplessly and depressedly.

Originally built in 1558 on the banks of the River Dammer in Berlin, Képenic Castle is a classical Baroque building that was renovated and expanded during the reign of Frederick I and eventually turned into a hunting castle.

Fort Kopenik has been recorded in German history, and indeed in world history, because of three things.

First, in 1906, a shoemaker named Wilhelm Voight, in fact, his more long-term occupation was a habitual thief, after buying a second-hand military uniform, pretending to be a Prussian captain, leading a group of soldiers who did not know the truth, on the pretext of being ordered by the Kaiser, easily took over the Kpeenic City Hall, and swept away 4002 marks.

What is even more ridiculous is that Wilhelm was actually moved by this "creative" robbery, believing that the success of this habitual thief was due to the admiration and love of the German army and people, who not only pardoned him, but also funded him to travel around Europe to tell the story.

As everyone knows, this kind of brain-dead behavior has made the whole world laugh at the worship of uniform power in the German Empire, and people with brains are asking, is it the system or the uniform that is in charge of the country?

Second, after the Nazis came to power in 1933, they committed a horrific massacre in Kopenikburg, which is known as Blood Week in German history.

The third is the Monument to the Soviet War for the Liberation of Germany in Treptow Park, a sculpture full of lies from the beginning of construction, the statue actually shows a Soviet soldier, in the battle to liberate Berlin, braved the rain of bullets to rescue a 3-year-old German girl....

There are more than 40,000 artillery pieces of all kinds, 1.2 million shells were fired in one day, and the Soviet army suffered more than 300,000 casualties in the Battle of Berlin, you tell me, this is a story of a Soviet soldier who braved the rain of bullets to rescue a little German girl, I think Helmut Kohl's wife will spit on the face of the designer of this sculpture!

Shameless is a statue of the Shameless, the whole world knows what the Soviets did in Berlin, and the reason for allowing this lie to exist to this day is nothing more than a part of the history that the Germans need to remember.

None of the above three things Joey liked, plus Adlerschov was a famous high-tech base in Berlin in Joey's previous life, and for the above reasons, Joey decided to let Adlershov only stay in the future history of Germany as a high-tech spokesperson.

"Jojo, in that case, I still want to discuss something with you." Louis had a smile on his lips.

"Huh?!"

"Otherwise, your foundation will come to Baden too." Louis also put his arm on Joey's shoulder without scruples, and looked at Joey eagerly, "The Duchy of Baden has the University of Freiburg and the University of Heidelberg, and it is very close to the University of Strasbourg. ”

"You know, there are a lot of thoughtful professors here, and a large part of them have come to Berlin, like Chancellor Helmholtz."

"Louie, I only met Professor Helmholtz two days ago, and I don't think Mr. Professor likes your title." Joey gently poked Louis in the ribs with his elbow.

"Oops." After rubbing his ribs exaggeratedly, Louis smiled, "Hehe, I'm just complimenting that." Well, continuing with what we just said, there are still a group of professors who prefer the beautiful Rinshi River (the Rhine and the Rhine River are the Japanese context) and the Alps to the beautiful Baden. ”

Looking at Louis, who was winking at him, Joey asked tentatively, "Alsace and Lorraine?" ”

Louis nodded slightly.

Alsace and Lorraine .... The current German crown is a German-speaking region that has historically been loyal to France.

The French national anthem "Marseillaise" is derived from the "Army Song of the Rhine Army" of Alsace, and the commander of the French army in the victory of Valmy in Prussia was the Alsatian Kellermann, who commanded the Moselle Legion, which was mainly Alsace-Lorraine, and participated in Napoleon's military operations in Germany many times.

If Napoleon was a "demon" in the eyes of the Germans, then the Moselle army was the devil's minions, and when the anti-French coalition invaded France in 1814, the Prussian and Austrian forces used Alsace-Lorraine as Napoleon's demon nest and plundered it.

In addition, Napoleon, an Italian, never equated language with loyalty, and never hesitated to use the German-speaking Alsace-Lorraine. The population of Alsace is less than 2 percent of the total number of French generals, but the Alsatian generals account for 5 percent of the total number of French generals.

Marshal Lefebvre, Marshal Kellermann, and Marshal Ney, the three French civilian marshals from German-speaking Alsace-Lorraine, accounted for one-eighth of the total of the 24 French marshals enthroned by Napoleon before 1814, much higher than the proportion of the local population.

This principle of equality in the face of military merit destroyed the system of monopoly of high military positions by nobles, broke the ceiling of civilian promotion, and gave every commoner in Alsace Lorraine who fought for France a chance to be promoted.

It is precisely because of the unprecedented political rights and social status obtained by the Alsace-Lorraine people during the French Revolution that they are more inclined to France in terms of political identity and identity.

According to the agreement between Prussia and France, France ceded all of Alsace and part of Lorraine, but in reality, Belfort, the southernmost part of Alsace, did not fall until the Franco-French armistice, so it was eventually retained in France.

Frédéric Auguste Bartholdi, a native German speaker of the Statue of Liberty, was a participant in the Battle of Belfort.

At the beginning of the First World War, more than 4,000 young men recruited by the Germans here ran to France overnight, and the German military only dared to transfer the young men here to the Eastern Front.

In 1918, the sailors who took the lead in making trouble in the port of Kiel and rebelled against Wilhelm II were also Alsace-Lorraine.

In the Alsace-Lorraine region alone, sometimes the same language and culture does not necessarily equate to political identity, and it is not just a language that inspires people's patriotism, but a sense of identity and belonging to a country.

"Listen to my father, you have a good set of organizing national identity and sense of belonging, how about it, come and try it!" Louis said with a wicked smile, "You know, my mother is an absolute admirer of your mother. ”

"Willy goes to university, Frederick also goes to university, because you have been attending the science salon in Berlin since you were five years old, so I am going to the science salon in Karlsruhe at the age of eight, and since you have promised to sponsor Professor Warburg, then the other professors of Baden, Alsace and Lorraine, whatever the considerations of the country and the nation, you also need to sponsor them."

"Really?!" Joey tilted his head to look at the righteous and awe-inspiring cousin in front of him, as if he was not the same as the Louis he remembered.

"Of course it's true, Alsace-Lorraine is a royal territory after all, they are Germans with a long tradition, they speak a language and a culture to us, and they all love Germany......" Looking at Joey's obviously malicious smile, Louis knew that he couldn't make it up.

"Okay, I'll be honest with you." After the anger that supported his positive image was dissipated, he put his arm on Joey's shoulder and said frankly in frustration, "Actually, I fell in love with a Strasbourg girl." ”

"Although Alsace-Lorraine was classified as a direct territory of the Reich, it did not have its own regional representatives in the German Federal Parliament, and in local affairs, although the Alsace-Lorraine Commission could participate in political affairs, it had only advisory powers, not decision-making powers."

"You know, in those days the Alsace-Lorraine had direct access to the Estates-General of France, and they had always enjoyed all the political rights of French citizens, whereas under the Reich, the German-speaking Alsace-Lorraine were second-class citizens."

"Even with that, I like a Strasbourg girl, it's become an impossible thing."

"When I heard that you also liked a French girl, Jojo, I thought of you as my best friend." Louis hugged Joey's shoulders hard and said seriously, "I was also raised by my mother to develop in the direction of science since I was a child, so I decided to do my best to help you in science." ”

"Jojo, I only ask you for one thing, help me work together to give the Alsace-Lorraine a fair place in the Empire, they deserve a fair place, and I beg you for this one thing."

"Perhaps, in the end, I will not be able to marry the Strasbourg girl I like, but I don't want to die that my beloved girl will be looked down upon by others."
