Qin Yu worked very hard to learn military knowledge after entering the Berlin Military Academy, especially military command, and Chen Fu also studied hard, even crazier than Qin Yu, because Qin Yu said that they would return to China to become officers in the future, provided that they successfully graduated.

The days in the academy are fulfilling, Qin Yu and they are making progress every day, in the same way, Qin Yu also gave the academy a lot of construction, and the academy is slowly improving, Qin Yu gave a lot of advice to the German military, and even Qin Yu was also concerned by the royal family, especially Wilhelm II.

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye, and Qin Yu has also graduated from the Berlin Military Academy ahead of schedule, and only Chen Fu and them are still struggling.

In these three years, in February 1902, Qin Yu let people establish Donghua Automobile Co., Ltd. in Germany, and handed over many simple car design drawings for the next twenty or thirty years to Donghua to research and produce, after more than two years of development, the company has made a profit of more than 20 million pounds, Donghua Automobile that advanced models and comfortable seats make Europeans like it very much.

On May 28, 1902, Edison invented the battery, and Qin Yu sent someone to buy the patent for the battery, and after Qin Yu's improvement, he began to build a factory in Germany to produce, and after more than a year, the flashlight was made by Qin Yu to start selling and making a profit.

On February 1, 1903, after Germany, Italy, and Britain lifted the blockade of Venezuela, Qin Yu used the trusted Americans who worked in Qin's firm to establish Pan Asia Oil Co., Ltd., and wantonly enclosed land in Venezuela to extract and process oil.

While Qin Yu accumulated his original funds, he also brought more than 500 people from his family to study in Germany, and he took part of the money he earned in Germany and sent it home, asking Mrs. Qin to buy land to develop agriculture and establish factories, especially light industries such as textiles, and also asked Mrs. Qin to invest all the family's money into it.

After walking out of the Berlin Military Academy, Qin Yu was thinking about whether to sell the drawings of the "Dreadnought" battleship that Britain had just built to Germany, because in his previous life, Qin Yu liked military affairs and knew a lot of military history, especially those with similar professional knowledge, it was easy to draw simple drawings of the "Dreadnought", he figured out these drawings in exchange for the machine and technology of making guns and cannons, but he didn't know how to sell this, and in the end he could only go to Paz.

He called someone to invite Path, and after half an hour, Paz finally came, and Paz asked Qin Yu: "What is the matter with Xiaoyu looking for me?" ”

"I heard that Britain is now building a warship called the Dreadnought, and I think Germany must be very troubled now, right?" Qin Yu said unhurriedly, "I have the drawings of the Intrepid now, do you want it?" ”

"Really? I want, can you show me? ”

"Of course you can, but only partially." As he spoke, Qin Yu took it out and showed it to Pas.

After seeing it, Paz said excitedly: "Sell it to me, make a price, as long as it is within my affordability, I can accept it, by the way, how did you get it?" ”

"This is what my family stumbled upon in the UK, how about we barter? I have two production lines for Mauser bullets and two rifles, one for artillery shells, and two iron furnaces for 200,000 tons a year of steel. ”

"I'll think about this, but I'm sure you won't be able to meet all of your conditions, so I can't help it now, and I'll give you an answer tomorrow, how about it?" Paz hesitated.

"Okay, for the sake of my sincerity, I'll give you half a picture first, and I'll wait for you tomorrow" Qin Yu put the drawings away, "My conditions can't be less." ”

This night, Paz went to see Wilhelm II, and said Qin Yu's conditions, the drawings must be obtained, otherwise the navy is getting farther and farther away from the British level, as for the conditions, it is acceptable, but Wilhelm II felt a little strange about these requirements, it stands to reason that the Qing country will not pay attention to the smelting of steel now, and the steel market of the Qing country is basically none, but he finally agreed, but he must ask what these are used for, will it damage the interests of Germany.

The next day, Paz brought a senior officer, a rear admiral, and when Qin Yu saw them coming, he asked, "Uncle Paz agreed?" ”

"Yes, this is Rear Admiral Hans of the Navy, you talk to him."

Qin Yu politely reached out to shake the Major General's hand and said, "Hello, Major General Hans, my name is Qin Yu." ”

"We agreed to your conditions, but why do you want these things?"

"Agreed, great, I want these to make guns and ammunition, our family wants to develop the cause of arms, you can rest assured that our family will not sell it in Europe, but only use it to buy it for the Qing court." Qin Yu had long known that Germany would agree, but he still pretended to be shocked.

"If that's the case, fine." Hans felt that Germany basically did not sell arms to the Qing court, and Qin Yu's manufacturing would not affect Germany.

In the end, both parties successfully completed the transaction. Qin Yu transported the iron-making machine back to China, and asked Mrs. Qin to build a steel-making plant in southern Anhui to lay the foundation, while those guns and cannons were left in Germany to produce munitions, and they brought a bunch back when they returned to China in the future.

In the next two years, Qin Yu developed his own automobile company and the production of weapons, and also acquired a small shipyard, and at the same time transported a large number of workers from China to arrange for his own industry to learn technology, and the domestic and German industries have developed greatly.

The battery company began to make profits, Donghua Automobile is now very popular in Europe, and has earned more than 50 million pounds in a few years, Pan Asia Oil has been ranked in the forefront of the world, it not only has oil fields in Venezuela, but also has several large oil fields in Mexico and the United States, and now Pan Asia Oil is worth more than 200 million US dollars, and the domestic Qin firm has become one of the largest commercial houses, its textile industry is fighting with Japan, and Qin's influence has spread throughout the country; The production of weapons has entered a period of steady development, and a batch of weapons have been shipped back to China to strengthen the armed forces of the Qin family and ensure its rapid development.

Chen Fu and they graduated, and they also returned to China with a group of Chinese who studied in Germany, and they will enter the army according to Qin Yu's plan, while Qin Yu provides weapons, and they enter the Beiyang Army, Anhui, Zhejiang, Jiangsu and other places in batches, lurk in the army to master the army, and lay the foundation to prepare for Qin Yu's return.

Qin Yu has known a lot of German Junker nobles in the past two years, and even some generals and so on, because many of the weapons produced by his arsenal have been ordered by the German army, so it is normal to contact these officers, and some of them were met at the banquets of those Junker nobles, and some nobles also have business dealings with the Qin family.

Once, at a banquet of the Krupp family, Qin Yu was alone in the corner, thinking about when to leave Germany, and had no intention of drinking and chatting with these nobles, of course, he would not pay attention to that stage.

After a while, the time for the banquet and dancing came, and suddenly in the center of the stage came a beautiful woman like a fairy, with a willow waist in her hand, proud twin peaks, a delicate face, long flowing hair, wearing a blue skirt, and a pair of blue eyes that flashed with bright light kept looking around, and suddenly the young men around looked at the woman on the stage, although they wanted to dance with this woman, but their aristocratic etiquette did not allow them to shout, just when someone mustered up the courage to go up and invite, they saw the woman walking towards a corner.

The woman is the only beloved daughter of the current head of the Krupp family, Irene, she was born beautiful, generous and very popular with those young people, plus she is the young lady of the Krupp family, which makes the young nobles of Germany flock to her.

Erin walked to the corner because there was one person who hadn't paid attention to her, and he looked handsome, but he was an Oriental, so she was very curious about this person, so she wanted to invite him, at least he wouldn't think about how to have himself all day like these people.

Qin Yu was thinking about things when suddenly a soft voice came from in front of him: "Can I dance with me with this gentleman?" ”

Qin Yu looked up and saw that it was a beautiful woman, and she also exuded a temperament that was a few points higher than that of other nobles, which made Qin Yu very addicted, what fairy sister in her previous life was compared to this woman, but soon Qin Yu recovered and stretched out her hand gentlemanly and said: "Beautiful young lady, it's an honor to dance with you, my name is Qin Yu, from the great Huaxia." As he spoke, he reached out and took Erin's hand.

Erin saw that Qin Yu was fascinated but soon recovered and had a good impression of him, she put her little white hand into Qin Yu's hand and said, "Thank you, Mr. Qin Yu, my name is Erin, I am very happy to dance with you." ”

Qin Yu and Erin came to the stage and began to dance ballroom dances, and the young people nearby were very envious of Qin Yu for having such good luck, although they looked down on the Qing people, but they also knew Qin Yu's achievements in Germany in recent years, so they didn't have much resentment, after all, people are better than you.

Dancing is not a difficult thing for Qin Yu, Qin Yu learned it because of the needs of business before he crossed over. After a while, Qin Yu and Erin finished dancing, and the two of them received warm applause, because they danced very well, and those who were born in nobility and trained felt that they were not as good as Qin Yu.

Qin Yu left after the meeting, and Erin asked someone to show her Qin Yu's information, Erin was very interested in him after reading it, she couldn't imagine that Qin Yu was so young and capable to think about him.

Since then, Erin has often come to Qin Yu's arsenal as a buyer at the Krupp Arsenal to purchase drawings or weapons, and Qin Yu is also very happy about the proximity of the big beauty, and they like each other when they come and go.

Qin Yu was very distressed when he found out that he fell in love with this girl, because later he knew that Erin was the daughter of the Krupp family, and her status was noble, and he didn't know if Erin's father would ruthlessly break them up, so Qin Yu was very distressed about whether he should develop this love.

Just when he was distressed, Erin seemed to see his mind and bravely confessed to Qin Yu, Qin Yu didn't expect this, but he accepted this love after seeing Erin's determination.

Originally, Erin's father was against it, but after investigation, he found out Qin Yu's potential and strength, and he was not very opposed, but he still didn't give Qin Yu a good face, he decided not to help Qin Yu let Qin Yu develop on his own, to see if Qin Yu could break out of his own world.

After arranging a qiē, Qin Yu took Erin on a two-year trip to Europe, starting from Germany and heading north, then east and south, and finally west and then north back to Germany.
