Outside the gates of the Dachau concentration camp, Zhou Nan affectionately embraced Seyli Vent, the wife of General Falkenhausen. This old lady is a very traditional German woman, kind, submissive, but tenacious.

One of their three sons died in World War I, and both died in World War II, including their eldest grandson. Among their only remaining relatives, only two young granddaughters remained.

General Falkenhausen was confined in the small courtyard of the concentration camp, and although he lost his freedom, his relatives were able to accompany him, and the living expenses were borne by the Americans.

The old lady endured the great trauma of fate, but she still lived strongly, taking care of General Falkenhausen and raising her two granddaughters.

When Zhou Nan was in his hometown, he met the old lady, and at that time she was a noble lady because of her husband's power. But now, wearing a somewhat shabby dress, her face is full of wrinkles, and her body is rickety.

"Little Jonas, although I haven't seen you for a long time, every time I see your news in the newspaper, Alexander is always very pleased."

"Madam, all the achievements I have been able to achieve are due to the teachings of the generals. My glory is with you! ”

She touched Zhou Nan's face with relief and introduced the two little girls beside her. "This is Jira, my second ...... The eldest granddaughter, who is eleven years old, and the other is Boydra, who is seven years old. ”

They were all dressed in clothes that were clearly changed from adult clothes, because some of them were timid because they had lived in a prison environment for a long time.

Although the Americans can guarantee that they will not starve to death, as prisoners, don't think about how well they can be treated.

Zhou Nan greeted them, and they all cringed a little. Facing Zhou Nan's gentle smile, he hid behind the old lady Sehi Live.

The old lady explained embarrassedly. "They have rarely seen outsiders in the past two years, and they have become a little timid. Let alone...... You don't look like we do. ”

"It doesn't matter, they are all lovely children, and when they meet more of their peers at school, they will soon become lively."

At this time, Boidra poked his head out and whispered, "I know you, you are Brother Jonas." ”

Zhou Nan immediately laughed and squatted down, but unfortunately he didn't prepare, and he didn't take out any food that children like in his pocket. Seeing his embarrassment, Etinny hurriedly returned to the front of the car and opened the trunk lid.

There was some Swiss chocolate for Lily, just right for the two girls.

Zhou Nan squatted in front of Boidra and smiled softly: "Yes, I am your brother Jonas. In the future, you don't have to live here, and you can go to school. ”

Zhou Nan took the chocolate and handed it to Jira and Boydra, who had obviously never seen chocolate and looked at her sister timidly with some anticipation.

Jira whispered thank you, took the chocolate, peeled off a piece, broke a bit, and fed it to her sister. "It's chocolate, and I told you it, it's the best thing to eat."

Boidra took a small piece and tasted it in his mouth, immediately showing an expression of enjoyment. She looked at her sister and sighed, "It's delicious." ”

She is seven years old this year, that is, she was born in about 40 years. From her youth, Germany's supplies were not abundant, and chocolate was a luxury.

When Jira was a child, her grandfather was a general, so she should have eaten it. But after General Falkenhausen was imprisoned in '44, this luxury was probably lost to these two children.

Boidra pulled the corner of her sister's clothes and said, "Sister, it's delicious." ”

Jira nodded heavily and handed her another piece, but wrapped the rest.

Zhou Nan said with a smile: "It's okay, there are many more, you can eat enough in the future." ”

She looked at her grandmother with some suspicion, and when she saw that the old lady nodded, she broke a small piece with some reluctance and stuffed it into her mouth.

Seeing the sweetness of their food, Zhou Nan also smiled with relief, stood up and asked, "Madam, have the formalities been completed over there?" ”

Yannick said: "I already helped the general go through the formalities yesterday, and although he can be released from prison now, he is restricted from residence. It is said that it will have to wait for the public trial on the Belgian side. ”

Zhou Nan nodded and said, "The general has not done anything bad in Belgium, even if it is tried publicly, he will not be too guilty." ”

The crowd entered the camp along the somewhat gloomy gate, and Zhou Nan's arrival was warmly welcomed by a group of American generals in Munich.

Zhou Nan now has a good relationship with the top level of the US government and the top level of the military, especially his high reputation in Europe, so that any general who is interested in career development will not despise him.

And his appearance also gave Yannick the opportunity to meet General Rommel easily, and before that, no one else could see him except for Manfred, who had the opportunity to meet Rommel again and again every month.

However, in order to avoid suspicion, Zhou Nan did not go to see Rommel, but personally went to the small courtyard where General Falkenhausen was held and picked him up from prison.

He hadn't seen General Falkenhausen for four years, and now he was sixty-nine years old, and his body was worrisome. However, he deserves Falkenhausen to live to be 88 years old, which means that he still has 19 years to live, so he is not worried about his health.

Looking at Zhou Nan, who had matured in front of him, General Falkenhausen stared at him for a long time before sighing: "Jonas, you have far exceeded everyone's expectations, and I am sincerely grateful for everything you have done for Germany." ”

"General, in my heart, you will always be an elder of mine, and you can always treat me as your child!"

With a slight smile on his face, he said, "Your whole German child! ”

The small courtyard where they lived was originally a dormitory in a concentration camp, with a large house for each of them, and a small courtyard of about 10 square meters in front of the house.

Compared to a prison, a person has an area of almost 30 square meters, which is considered a luxury.

The inside of the house is very simple, there are two beds with the sheets removed, and the books in the bookcase are also stored in boxes. The luggage had already been packed, and the quantity was not much, and Etinny and Popler did not let the general do it, and each carried two suitcases, and then finished the luggage.

In prison, General Falkenhausen and his knowledge of the outside channels could only rely on newspapers, but with so many people in prison, the number of newspapers was limited, so the information they knew was scattered.

Every time it was time to let the wind out, these senior generals often exchanged news together. Therefore, General Falkenhausen's knowledge of the outside world is somewhat incomplete, but he is not ignorant.

While chatting about the international situation in recent years, the two men slowly walked out of the heavily guarded concentration camp.

In the office building, Zhou Nanwan declined the invitation of these generals, but extended an invitation to them to visit the Jonas farm in Switzerland.

He refused their invitation because he could not establish a wide range of relations with these generals. Inviting them was because Zhou Nan did not refuse their kind olive branch, and if he encountered anything in the future, he could go directly to him.

This invitation is also a threshold, because ordinary people can't even enter Zhounan's farm.

Just by reading the newspaper, I can't understand how high Zhou Nan's prestige is now. But seeing the attitude of these American generals towards Zhou Nan, Falkenhausen can know that this young man from the East who once followed him has really become a big man.

And he has changed from a commanding general to an old man who no one cares about.

This change of fate made him full of loss. However, this emotion was hidden in his heart, and his personal situation was much better than that of Germany, which had fallen into the abyss.

At the very least, he still has someone to help him and can enjoy a peaceful life. But Germany, who can help!

On the road from Munich to Wolfsburg, Falkenhausen has always been relatively low. Listening to Yannick tell him about all aspects of the situation in Germany, only occasionally should he say a word or two.

At the age of sixty-nine, he has lost his past ambitions. He is now an old man waiting to die, and his only wish is to be able to make his two granddaughters grow up healthy.

In a state like his current state, it is best to recuperate at Zhou Nan's home. However, he is still on medical parole and living under supervision, so he cannot leave Germany.

And he had no intention of going to Switzerland to enjoy his happiness. "I'm too old to do anything, but I'm still going through all the hardships with Germany."

It's not going to be a tribulation, Yannick is also the boss of Volkswagen. Even if Germany's materials are a little poor, in terms of basic living security, their living conditions are still among the best in Germany.

In this era, there are still countless Germans who do not have enough to eat and do not have warm clothes. And winter is coming soon, and this winter, ordinary people in Germany are still having a hard time.

However, this is the last dark hour before dawn. Starting next year, when the European Reconstruction Plan is officially implemented in Germany, Germany will burst into great potential for development after three years of suppression.

The people here are already hungry and scared, and they are willing to suffer anything for the sake of a better life.

"You mean, let me recruit skilled technicians in Germany, technicians with patents, and then invest in South China?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't have capital, there are a lot of rich businessmen in Nanhua, but they lack technology accumulation and have no foundation for industrial development, so they want to take advantage of Germany's industrial strength."

"Isn't it enough for the public to invest?"

"Of course, Volkswagen is not enough, so I want Volkswagen to set up an industrial alliance so that Volkswagen's suppliers can also set up factories in Nanhua, so that Volkswagen will not have to worry about supplying spare parts in the future."

Yannick pondered for a long time before he said, "At least it's difficult at the moment, because the situation there is not stable. If the Red Party occupies the East Indies, or if the Javanese have the upper hand, then our investments are dangerous. Jonas, I will wholeheartedly support any decision you make, but the others will not believe you! ”

Thinking about the situation there, even Zhou Nan has a headache, and it is indeed difficult to attract a large number of investments and talents before the situation stabilizes!
