"This is geopolitics," the Queen Mother looked at the crowded restaurant, heard the news of the temporary stagnation of the Triple Alliance, snapped her fingers, and said proudly to Gao Xinkui, "The wisdom of the ancestors, let's learn a little bit, it's enough to fool foreign devils." ”

"But now," Gao Xinkui smiled, "the Queen Mother didn't get much benefit from it." ”

"Why not? If I hadn't moved them, how could I have sold us so many things, "Come to Germany to harvest the most abundantly, the "Sino-German Berlin Treaty" stipulates in detail all kinds of agreements, if you pay together, all the money in the household department will be moved, and the Queen Mother is boasting, "Besides, if you come to Europe, don't fan the flames, don't sow discord, wouldn't it be in vain?" ”

"The Germans are afraid of the alliance between Austria-Hungary, Tsarist Russia and France, this is inevitable, in the past, Wei State, also like Germany, the land of the four wars, although fertile, can block the east and west, and besiege Wei twice to save Zhao, so that the dream of the overlord of Wei is broken, they are also afraid, so there is a sense of crisis, so their armaments will always be good, it is useful to us, the Beiyang Naval Division invited all the instructors of the British, and most of the returnees from studying abroad are British, so the sailors are all pro-British, of course, this is not a bad thing, among the army, The Germans are the most rigorous, rectify military discipline and train the army, I am optimistic about them, "If I remember correctly, in the future, Yuan Shikai will train troops at a small station, and the whole set of training models of the Germans will be used.

"Now that their things are good, let's use them." The Queen Mother scratched it for a moment, "You know, this kind of feeling is cultivated, they don't lose, Bismarck knows that there is something wrong with these things in me, in order to stabilize the situation in the country," the Queen Mother smiled, "He also had to eat." ”

Tang Wufu stepped forward and said, "It's almost ready, but there are no new things here in Germany, and the dishes are a little simple, but fortunately they have four big bear paws, and the chef has concocted them for three days and three nights, so today's feast can be regarded as having some appearance." ”

The Empress Dowager Cixi vomited bitterness, "I didn't expect the German royal family to be so simple," what kind of dishes are eaten, they are the simplest things, no wonder the German royal family is called to live a puritanical ascetic life, "I really can't stand it, let me invite them to have a good meal today." ”

Tang Wufu's face was full of red, "Niangniang, please do it!" ”

The Queen Mother wore the most popular dress of the Germans and stood in the foyer to greet her, and Gao Xinkui flipped through the booklet in her hand, "France is unwilling to sell the dockyard and the skilled workers involved. ”

"They are so poor that they are not willing to sell?" The Empress Dowager Cixi said curiously, "That's it, if you don't sell it, you won't sell it, so as not to have any disputes in the future, and make trouble, both parties are things produced by him, which makes it difficult for people, but now they still refuse to sell, hehe, in a few years, we may be able to pack it at half price." "The Queen Mother thought of the blue-water naval plan that France would be very idiotic in the future.

"Austria-Hungary also wants to invite the Queen Mother to Vienna," Gao Xinkui said with a smile, "The Queen Mother's demeanor in Britain is something that half of Europe is fascinated by." ”

"Thank you," the Queen Mother smiled with satisfaction, "Do as the locals do, this won't be wrong there, I just know a little English, pat their ass, and let them do this?" In fact, as their rulers, they see these tricks of mine very clearly, but if they can win some favor, it is also good, at least, "The Queen Mother walked slowly forward, and the Kaiser's car was about to arrive," this trip to Europe is worth it, go, Vienna, why not go, I want to go to Vienna ** to listen to the opera! ”

The Queen Mother lifted her skirt to the Kaiser who stepped out of the carriage, "You are so punctual, Your Majesty." ”

"Thank you for the invitation," said William I, smiling, "for the first time I have been a guest in my own palace. ”

"Please forgive my rudeness, Empress, Crown Prince, Princess, Oh Prince William," the Queen Mother greeted the group, "I just want your country to come and taste our Chinese craft." The Queen Mother gracefully stretched out her hand to let Prince William kiss the back of her hand, and Prince William took a small photo frame to the Queen Mother, which was a photo of the last time they met, the Queen Mother bowed her knees to William, "Oh, Prince William, you are polite, you are really an excellent Germanic gentleman, I like this gift so much!" ”

The three heroes and the Junker nobles have arrived, a long table full of plates brought by China, embroidered with golden dragons and auspicious cloud patterns, many nobles are very interested in these exquisite tableware from the East, compared to the Chinese porcelain collected in their castle, it seems that it has all become a pile of garbage, an earl asked Qinghai sitting next to him how to buy these tableware, Qinghai said with a straight face, "This tableware that can only be used by the queen mother and the emperor, I'm sorry, it will not be sold."
