From a small arms dealer to a small billionaire, and then to Chen Wenqiang's intermediary in Germany, Kars is no longer satisfied with only doing arms business, but under Chen Wenqiang's demagoguery and persuasion, he has been involved in other fields, and even has some contacts with the German government through various connections. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

And Chen Wenqiang's reputation, as well as his frequent cooperation with large German companies, gradually attracted the attention of the German government. In particular, Chen Wenqiang spared no effort in the establishment of Dehua University and Tongji Medical University, not only holding talks with the German consul in Shanghai, but also sending a letter to the Kaiser, hoping that the German government would support it and strengthen its influence in China.

Chen Wenqiang is not only a well-known scientist, but also a rising star in China's growing constitutionalist faction, representing a political force that could gain power in the future. In particular, Chen Wenqiang's consistent pro-German tendencies have attracted more and more attention from the German government.

Prior to this, Wilhelm II had secretly met with Sun Baoqi, the Chinese minister to Germany, and told him: "The most powerful country in Europe is Germany, and the largest country in Asia is China. His intention is obvious, that is, to overwhelm the Anglo-Japanese alliance through the alliance of China, Germany and the United States.

However, on such an important diplomatic issue, after Sun Baoqi played the Empress Dowager Cixi, the Empress Dowager Cixi said coldly: "How can Britain not be allowed to join such a big problem?" It turned out that the Empress Dowager Cixi, who suffered a great loss from Britain in the Opium War, only knew that Britain was the most powerful country in the world, and that China wanted to join the alliance, and Britain was indispensable for it to participate.

When Wilhelm II heard Sun Baoqi's message about the Empress Dowager Cixi, he secretly laughed at the naivety of Chinese diplomacy, but on the surface he said: "It is not impossible to let Britain join, but it is advisable to be careful in advance." Let's talk about it after the three countries get in touch. The purpose of this remark was obviously to stabilize China, and the idea of a trilateral alliance between China, the United States and Germany was thus shelved.

However, Wilhelm II did not completely abandon the idea of an alliance between China and the United States and Germany, and was still looking for an opportunity to find another channel to find a shrewd Chinese official who could understand the international situation before approaching the matter. Although Chen Wenqiang is not an important minister who can directly reach the center of the Qing court and influence the government, he is not a relatively powerful figure who can be tested and won over.

And with the cries of Wilhelm II: " The German Empire is to become a world empire. In the far reaches of the earth, there should be our fellow citizens everywhere. German goods, German knowledge, German diligence to cross the seas??" Not just Wadsey, Alfred? Feng? Tirpitz, Holstein and others were enthusiastic, and a large number of bourgeois industrial and commercial magnates were even more ecstatic, and they salivated at the overseas markets.

So. The German government gave the green light to the investment and cooperation of industrial and commercial enterprises in China and the establishment of the Dehua University, and handed over the matter to the Governor General in Qingdao, so that he could discuss specific matters with Chen Wenqiang, the other party to the joint venture, and to carry out some other explorations.

Chen Wenqiang politely rejected Kars's suggestion. At this time, he could not leave Yazhou, and he had to make a turn for the end of the Wanning Uprising.

"I will write a letter to the Governor and ask you to bring it to Qingdao." Chen Wenqiang thought for a moment. He also asked: "The production line equipment for Mauser rifles and bullets must be shipped as soon as possible, I have opened the joints, and the new army formed in two or three provinces will buy weapons and ammunition from me, and there may be more in the future." If you can't deliver on time, I might—"

"There's no problem with that." Kars hastened to make assurances, saying: "According to the recently received telegram, the machinery has been loaded into Hamburg and will arrive shortly. on this deal. I was 100% sincere and put in a lot of hard work......"

"You've become a rich man, too." Chen Wenqiang smiled and interrupted Kars's expression and complained. "You know, even without a production line, it's not that difficult to copy a Mauser rifle. Of course, in order to repay your hard work and dedication, I am ready to give you another way to make money, that is, the synthetic ammonia factory. We purchase process patents for ammonia production processes. And look for partners to achieve industrial production. ”

In 1902, the German chemist Haber began to study the direct synthesis of ammonia from nitrogen and hydrogen, and with the help of his close partner Rosshanger, he overcame difficulties such as high pressure and catalysts to finally invent the method of making ammonia. And apply for a patent, the "round-robin method". The plant is like a small factory, producing hundreds of milliliters of liquid ammonia per hour with very low energy consumption. However, the methods of the laboratory can rarely be directly used in industrial production, and the experimental equipment can only lie quietly in the laboratory for people to visit.

Although Chen Wenqiang knows how to improve and make industrial ammonia synthesis a reality, this also requires a very high level of industrial manufacturing, which cannot be achieved under domestic conditions. Therefore, he set his sights on the powerful factories and enterprises in Germany and the United States, and decided to take the lead in building a synthetic ammonia plant in the form of joint ventures and cooperation.

But Kars clearly lacks confidence in this, seriously lacking it. Imagine that under the level of science and technology in Germany, the industrialization of synthetic ammonia is still far away.

"I'm not good at business, I'm not proficient." Karls politely rejected Chen Wenqiang's suggestion, "As for the object of joint venture, I can help you find it in Germany." ”

"Small businesses that don't have the strength are forgotten." Chen Wenqiang shook his head lightly and said: "I am going to seek partners through the newspaper media, and the targets are mainly determined in Germany and the United States, and those who cannot come up with one or two million funds are not considered." ”

"Need such a big investment?" Kars was surprised.

Chen Wen smiled faintly and did not explain deeply. Historically, it took four or five years for ammonia synthesis to go from laboratory to industrial production, and as many as 6,500 trials and 2,500 different formulations were tested just to find an efficient and stable catalyst. And these are too professional, for Kars, it is to play the piano to the cow.

As for investment, Chen Wenqiang is ready to use knowledge and wisdom as shares. You know, synthetic ammonia is a bright road, it is not only the main raw material for the fertilizer industry and basic organic chemicals, but also the raw material for the fire explosives industry, which can serve the war effort. For some countries that wish to use war to expand and realize their ambitions, it is a necessary material support.

sent Kars away, and Chen Wenqiang went to find Wan Fuhua again. After explaining some trivial matters such as the resettlement of the families of the rebels, he also talked about the lack of government personnel, and hoped that Wan Fuhua would bring out some people first to manage the expanded territory.

Now, Chen Wenqiang must sit in Yazhou and expand his armament in a pretending manner. training and forming groups of merchants to protect industries that would not in fact be affected by the riots at all; While waiting for news from Joan. In addition, he also issued a secret order, ordering the people lurking in Guangzhou to assassinate the Guangzhou general, and then let out the rumors that he was going to start an incident in Guangzhou. This was a containment, which made the atmosphere in Guangzhou tense and made it impossible for the government to easily transfer troops to Qiongzhou.

In the field, the green grass lies on the ground with a smile, like a little yellow flower with a dandelion with its head down; From cultivated land that has been infiltrated with water. A moist, fermented smell can be smelled everywhere. Countless young green sprouts poked their heads out like the tips of needles, as if they were breathing there with their mouths open.

A trace of poetic warmth blew gently on Caifeng's cheeks, and the dim color had long disappeared from her eyes. The sun was not very warm, but a clear light increased the heat in her heart and body.

What is life? If it's a dream, then don't take anything seriously, why does it make people think about it. Unspeakable pain? Why is there so much suffering that makes people suffer so much?

Compared with the simplicity of death, life seems to be more protracted and difficult. It is more tortuous and bumpy. Therefore, life needs a kind of happiness to support, and with this support, people will be stronger, more powerful, and more persistent. Because alive. And make a kind of happiness and happiness that is dialyzed out of birth around you, and only then will you feel the meaning of life and reflect the happiness of birth

For Caifeng. Her understanding of life is still uncertain. Sometimes life is a nightmare, sometimes it's a table of delicacies for her to enjoy; Sometimes life is a rainbow in the sky after rain, and sometimes it is a bumpy and winding mountain road; Sometimes life is the kite that breaks the string and flutters; Sometimes life is a fat pig that eats well and sleeps well.

If you are alive, then try to make yourself happy! Happy and happy is a day, sad and depressed is also a day, but in the end the end of life is the same, to put it more thoroughly, life is just a step by step to the grave resume.

A pleasant scenery, a lyrical old song, a pot of strong old wine, a sweet kiss, an emotional warmth...... The happiness of life is not far away, it can be said that it is everywhere, it just depends on whether you can find it and whether you cherish it enough.

A crisp giggle interrupted Caifeng's thoughts, Lili and Yulian laughed happily, and there was another trophy in the cage, whether it was a cricket or a grasshopper, Caifeng couldn't tell the difference. Yulian is a very active and intelligent little girl, she has a few cans of crickets and teases them. A few strokes of a long mouse's whisker-like thing on its antennae enraged the little thing. But Yulian was just playing, and she didn't let them really bite, so as not to hurt them.

Compared to Yulian's naïve romance, Lili seems mature because of the hardships she has experienced, even though she is only a few years older. But she is sincere to Yulian, who is her first friend, and does not make fun of her or scold her because of her blue eyes.

"Kids, don't run too far." Caifeng is willing to watch her two children play carefree, although she has something on her mind.

There are times when Caifeng feels like she's been waiting for a man for most of her life. This makes her quite patient, but there are always times when she is impatient, because the person she is waiting for is someone she loves.

To distract herself, she was busy doing things for herself. In the morning, I played Tai Chi with Lili to calm my mood; In addition to picking up Lili and Yulian to and from school, she reads books and learns foreign languages. In her opinion, Chen Wenqiang needs a talented woman, although because of her background and other reasons, this woman is probably not her.

The most relaxing time was when I accompanied Lili and Yulian in the house to watch the crickets in the small jar fight. The clever little girl teases the crickets' tentacles, arouses their aggressive passion, and then separates them again when they are intense. Lili and Yulian's curiosity and tenderness from time to time make Caifeng's heart ache and love.

Then there was playing in the field, Lili and Yulian were laughing and running, and the pigtails were flung behind their heads like a drum. The cute figures of the two girls, the bright eyes, the crisp laughter, sometimes the trouble, sometimes the naughty and funny, all of this reminds Caifeng of the scene when she was a child, and there was also a very short happy time.

When the carriage on the road stopped and Chen Wenqiang's familiar figure reappeared, Caifeng realized that he had been so frightened all along. But now, all she feels about Chen Wenqiang's return is joy.

Chen Wenqiang's appearance hardly changed, he smiled and hugged Caifeng, hugging it very tightly, which let Caifeng know that his strength seemed to be great again. Then Chen Wenqiang smiled and talked to the two little girls, Yulian looked kind and shy, but not dignified.

"Isn't it good to have a pug, you have to catch crickets?" The two girls simply rejected Chen Wenqiang's suggestion and ran to play again.

Caifeng stared at Chen Wenqiang, his resolute face, slightly opened lips, his usual serious expression showed gentleness, and his blinking eyes flashed a little naughty. The two held hands, walked to the car on the side of the road and sat down, talking in a low voice.

This is not the first time such a scene, but it still makes Caifeng feel excited. She has long known that men's passion and love are different, and these two seem to be two different things in men's hearts.

"Wannings' riot won't affect this place, will it?" Caifeng was a little worried, but as soon as Chen Wenqiang came back, she didn't care anymore, but she still liked to hear Chen Wenqiang's reply.

"No, it won't." Chen Wenqiang hugged Caifeng's waist and stroked her hand, "I didn't see that the merchant group and the militia group have expanded, and they have bought a lot of weapons." Besides, it wasn't a thug who revolted, they didn't touch the canning factory in Wannings. ”

"That German is waiting for you, are you going to Qingdao? By the way, I already know everyday German. Caifeng felt that Chen Wenqiang's embrace was extremely warm, like a hot quilt nest in the morning, which made her not want to leave.

"Qingdao will not go for the time being." Chen Wenqiang reached out to support Caifeng's chin, so that her face was facing him, looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "Say a word and I'll listen, just say 'I love you'." ”

Caifeng bit her lip slightly, if it was in the bedroom, she desperately wanted to turn the two of them into an irrepressible lust, but now, she only felt the peace and peace of mind that Chen Wenqiang brought her when he returned. It wasn't until the breath was getting closer and her lips were touching that she felt the heat...... (To be continued.) )
