Chapter 242: Why did you choose such a strange combination?
His Majesty Emperor Li Mengyang of the New Tang Empire of the United States has given the highest instruction to Liszt, the new foreign minister, that is, to flicker!
Anyway, I didn't say it explicitly, but Liszt knew very well that this is what His Majesty the Emperor meant, and this changed his position from Minister of Propaganda to Minister of Foreign Affairs...... In other words, not long after the empire was founded, this person changes or something, in fact, quite frequently.
For example, Meng Fanyong from the Engineering Department, wasn't he transferred to the army to be a political commissar before, anyway, our empire, it is really to make the best use of things, oh, it should be called to make the best use of talents......
Liszt can't help but complain, where did he actually do any diplomatic work, besides, there is a particularly obvious thing this time, that is, Liszt has a deputy, and this deputy is actually the father-in-law of the emperor!
It's simple, how can this be done?
Well, it seems that Liszt's thinking has been infected by His Majesty the Emperor, with a strong northeastern vernacular atmosphere......
Actually, this arrangement is very exquisite, anyway, Li Mengyang thinks it's very good, that is, this guy is right, and then the deputy arranges a person with a higher status than him, which can play a certain role in supervision.
Huang Sanye, since he became the Minister of Commerce, he actually has nothing to do at all, because the business of the empire, in a big way, especially at the beginning, is all planned, that is, in Li Mengyang's words, it is a planned economy.
It had to be like this from the beginning, there was no way, so I could concentrate on doing big things. Moreover, there is another characteristic of this planned economy. That's all big. Some small ones couldn't be taken into account when the country was first founded.
Later, there was a small one, but as a result, such as Strauss who sold pants, he and Li Mengyang could be directly connected, so what could Huang San do?
Therefore, it is normal for Huang Sanye to sleep during a meeting, and he, the Minister of Commerce, is equivalent to a name. There is nothing to do, plus he is the emperor's old Taishan, so who dares to make irresponsible remarks?
So why does Li Mengyang think of him now as an old Taishan?
Naturally, many people are concerned about this......
"Brother Mengyang, why did you let Daddy be a diplomatic envoy?"
Today, in the palace of the American Empire, the landlord is no longer fighting, and the queen Huang Rong wants to whisper something to her husband.
"What's going on......" Li Mengyang wanted to laugh when she heard it, it seems that this girl is also ready to speak for her father, but it's not ...... It is said that this is a Qing palace drama. It is estimated that the emperor will be suspicious, is it because he wants the inner palace to interfere in politics?
Li Mengyang didn't have this idea. He knew that Huang Rong's sister was probably a little incomprehensible, because the sister really didn't mix anything, and the reason why she wanted to say it this time was probably because of Huang Sanye.
"Brother Mengyang, I'm actually worried about whether Daddy can be qualified for this envoy, this is diplomacy, it's a national event, I don't understand, but if Daddy messes things up, what can I do? My ...... girl's worries are very reasonable.
Although Huang Rong was also a strong woman before, the little girl's family did business, but now that she is a queen after all, she doesn't care much about many things, of course, her own business has not been put down, so ketchup or something...... Now she's the Queen of Ketchup!
"Well, sister, don't worry." Li Mengyang didn't finish speaking, so he went up and kissed him, this wife doesn't kiss him.
The sound of "hate~" really makes people can't afford to hate it at all.
"Hehe......" Li Mengyang smirked, and then said: "Father-in-law, he is an old man, maybe he doesn't know much about international politics, but this international diplomacy is still quite interesting with international politics." It's hard to say the Tao in this anyway. But the reason why I let my father-in-law go to his old man's house is mainly based on two points. Hey hey ......"
"Say it! Say it! Don't keep selling! "Sister Huang Rong was in a hurry, and gave Li Mengyang, the emperor, a health ball.
"Okay." Li Mengyang dared to slack off, "The first point is actually very simple, although my father-in-law has a strong accent, at least he understands English." ”
"Poof, giggle......" That's it, Huang Rong's sister is smiling has no image at all, others don't know, can she, a daughter, know? My father's English accent is really amazing, and ordinary Americans can't understand it at all, you know, people everywhere in the United States have it, and they can't understand it, you say this accent......
"Hey, hey......" Li Mengyang also laughed, but ah, he really didn't expose his old Taishan's shortcomings, don't forget, there is another reason, "The second one, that is, he is my old Taishan!" ”
"Huh?" Huang Rong's eyes are wide open, just because of this?
Li Mengyang explained slowly: "It's very simple, how do you think your father is a person? ”
As soon as she heard this, Huang Rong's sister blushed, but she couldn't help but say it, so she whispered: "Daddy, he's stingy, and he wants money, everything can be sorted out to the money, anyway, it's ...... anyway."
Anyway, my father has too many shortcomings, and I'm embarrassed to say it as a daughter.
But though, I didn't expect it.
"It's actually all advantages!" Li Mengyang said this with a smile.
"Huh?" Is this still an advantage?
I only heard Li Mengyang say: "These characteristics, put them on a person's body, it is indeed a comparison or something." "Okay, Li Mengyang is also very smart, he didn't say it directly, "But don't forget, he is my old Taishan, he went out this time, give full play to these 'advantages', then don't say anything else, at least our Xintang won't suffer any losses." ”
"Oh~" Huang Rong's sister pulled a long voice, and at this time she found out that her emperor's husband was a monkey spirit...... Okay, that's a misnomer, but it's apt.
You want to. Send such a stingy guy out for diplomacy. That's definitely not going to be a loss. As far as Huang Sanye's temperament is concerned, calculation can give you calculations to the bones, and the oil will be fried for you!
He, Huang Sanye, is now the national ruler, so for the interests of the New Tang Empire, let's put it this way, as long as there is something that harms the interests of the New Tang Dynasty, Huang San will definitely fight to the death. This is also why Li Mengyang asked him to be a deputy, but you have to know. Just a deputy.
It's still that Liszt, but Liszt is a Hungarian after all, although he will also defend the interests of the empire, but Europe is his hometown, just imagine, if there are European fellows, such as Hungarians, come to him for help, then what will Liszt do?
Do you still expect Liszt to be righteous?
Li Mengyang had already seen that Liszt's guy was very bad, but he really had to come to the level of interests. That would certainly sacrifice others for their own personal gain.
This may not sound like a good thing for the collective good. It's not good for the empire, but Li Mengyang knows very well that such a person is a must in a collective, and you can't prevent the appearance of such a person at all, this is too normal thinking.
So, now I have made such a combination of the principal and deputy envoys, and use a prince to look at Liszt, isn't that just right, how perfect this combination is!
However, like what Huang Rong's sister is asking now, she is actually afraid that her father will lose his physique, which will make the empire lose face.
To put it simply, that's when people from other countries look at it, 'Huo, what kind of person is this guy, so unsued', 'It's so bad, it's so stingy', 'This accent is so bad, where is Su zhì?' ’…… There must be many, many people who will say that, absolutely.
Does this seem to be a detrimental thing to the national prestige?
Huang Rong's sister's idea actually represents the thoughts of many people, after all, she is going out, so this envoy of a country represents the image of a country, which is really important.
Li Mengyang also admitted that this is indeed a very important thing, but don't forget one thing.
Does our New Tang Empire have any good image?
That's right, when we just founded the country, it attracted an all-out international strangulation, an all-round blockade, all kinds of dirty water, and scolding us in the newspapers all day long, so you say, does the New Tang Empire have a good image?
Of course not, since there is no good image, then what do we care about the image?
This is Li Mengyang's true thoughts, he is actually very aware of the importance of a country's image, but now there is really no way, it is really sprayed by those Western powers, you know, this is really not a broken jar, I really don't even have a jar!
Since there is no jar left, let's just play practical, I will protect the interests of Nutang, keep this interest, anything else, feel free.
I have to say that Li Mengyang's idea is a bit transcendent, but in fact, he also has a certain inspiration for this idea.
That's what I got from Li Hongzhang and Li Zhongtang!
Li Hongzhang is a very interesting person, do you know what state he is in when he goes out to engage in diplomacy?
Not to mention anything else, when I first talked about trading with Strauss, what was Li Hongzhang like?
It's just an old ruffian!
Why?
Just imagine, Li Hongzhangguan is so big, is he really so unsophisticated? Could he have no culture?
It's impossible, so Li Mengyang naturally has to analyze it.
It's okay, Li Mengyang is now a relatively mature politician, and he quickly saw that the key to this matter is actually those two words, interests!
Li Hongzhang's hooligan habits of engaging in diplomacy and stirring up nonsense were actually aimed at safeguarding the interests of the Manchu Qing Dynasty.
Why does it have to be like this?
How simple it is, Li Hongzhang knows what the Manchu Qing Dynasty is like, and he also knows what the Western powers are like, obviously the Manchu Qing Dynasty is very weak now, a weak country talks about diplomacy with a strong country, if you don't mess around, then how can you live this life?
From this point, it can also be seen that there are no fools who have left a name in history?
Looking at it now, although the New Tang Dynasty won the battle, it is still very weak, and what it relies on now is nothing more than that the emperor is far away, and it is difficult for those Western powers to directly threaten themselves, otherwise...... Hey, where will there be any London conference? People came straight to the door!
So, let's mess around.
This truth, that Huang Rong's sister is naturally difficult to understand, and Li Mengyang also picked some simple talks, in the end......
This couple, how about it?
"Brother Mengyang, I've been in poor health for the past two days, you go find Yelena......"
"Huh?"
Li Mengyang: This is a bit of a headless feeling.
"Could it be that you are sick, girl? Let me see. ”
"Oh, you're not sick, you idiot! Giggle......"
The two of them also flirted and scolded, so naturally they had a lot of laughter, but what the hell is going on? Li Mengyang is quite concerned.
"Sister go to the hospital for a check-up, don't ......"
"Stupid, you don't have to worry about me, by the way, Sister Yelena has a new trick, giggle......"
"New tricks?"
What's new?
But anyway, Li Mengyang is looking forward to it...... This guy, do you have to come to a 'Spring Festival is bitter and short, and the king will not rise early'? (To be continued......)
