In addition to Japan, the Republic of China has signed new tariff agreements with Britain, the United States, Italy, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and other countries, and from next year, the national reduction of gold will benefit tens of thousands of people!"

"Outside the number, I sent troops to the Outer Mongolia garrison to Tangnu Wulianghai, expelled the Russian army, and recovered more than 20 million square kilometers of lost land!"

"Outside the number, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of the Navy of the Republic of China were reorganized, the Ministry of Defense was formally established, and Qin Yu, the patrol envoy of the three eastern provinces, was appointed as the first Minister of National Defense."

……….

The weather has turned cooler in autumn, but Sihao can't affect the enthusiasm of the people, and this year is destined to be an extraordinary year for the Republic of China.

"Okay, good, the recovery of tariff autonomy, the recovery of the country, the Republic of China will not have a sense of pride until this year, I can't go to the outside in person to see the majesty of the soldiers." In a teahouse outside Tsinghua University, several students gathered around a table and gathered in front of the newspaper almost at the same time, and everyone present was excited to see the headlines in the newspaper and several other explosive news.

"Forget it, Professor Plante will arrive at Tsinghua School in five days to give a lecture, if you don't go to this class, the principal won't be alive." A student next to him said, "There are not many people in our school who have learned German, but Professor Plante is an authority on modern mechanics, and if it weren't for the Northeast Force, he might not have come to Beijing." ”

"It's also true that the opportunity to listen to Professor Plante's lectures is not very common, and if you miss this opportunity, you will have to study abroad in Germany in the future." The student who spoke before touched his brain.

"Hey, Yu Guangcheng, you rushed from Mukden to Beijing to listen to Professor Plante's lectures. I heard that in Mukden, there are German professors everywhere, but there is no one who can compare to Professor Plante? The student asked.

"There are indeed a lot of German professors in the three largest universities in Northeast China, but I only stayed in a second-rate school, so I didn't have any opportunity to listen to those people's lectures. If I hadn't studied German for a few years, not many of you at Tsinghua University would have known German, and I might not have been able to get this opportunity. You don't know enough about Professor Plante, who is no one in the world of aerodynamics and modern fluids. Naturally, I couldn't miss this opportunity. Yu Guangcheng smiled, obviously very happy to get this opportunity this time.

"It's better for you to be in Fengtian, it's a second-rate university, and the real equipment used is much better than that of our Tsinghua school. There are also often opportunities to communicate with Fengtian University of Technology. I have to read the classic mechanics papers published in every issue of Fengtian University of Technology several times. Hu Yucheng said very enviously.

"There are so many German professors, and even if there are professors, you still have to understand German, don't you want me to say, the matter of Geng is solved, and your life at Tsinghua University is not easy?" Yu Guangcheng said, "There are Geng payments returned by various countries. It is enough for Tsinghua School and Peking University to purchase teaching equipment. ”

"Not to mention, since Yu Shuai came to Beijing. Our life is much better, the teachers have also received salaries, and our Tsinghua School has also set aside an area to build a new teaching building. Said the former student.

"It's not just that the students' lives are better, the customs sovereignty and the abolition of the money. The recovery of Tangnu Wulianghai, the previous Middle East Road, which was not done under the auspices of Yu Shuai? In addition to the United States and Britain, which are still open-minded, Japan and France have been holding on to their words. France even demanded that the remaining public funds be replaced with gold francs, and even threatened the affairs of the customs of the Republic of China. ”

"My God, tens of millions? Our Tsinghua University's annual expenditure is only more than one million, which is really hateful to the French. ”

"Well, this green belt is well planned, and it is worthy of being the person who has been the supervisor of the Beijing Municipal Government, and it seems that the construction of Beijing is really the right person to be handed over to Mayor Zhu." Qin Yu looked at both sides of Fuyou Street, as well as the planning of the intersection, and smiled, it seems that there are still some talents in the Republic of China, if it weren't for this entry into Beijing, I wouldn't know that there is such a person as Zhu Qichan in the Republic of China. The only streets in Beijing that are a little interesting are all rectified by Zhu Qichao's hands during the Yuan Shikai period, and Zhu Qichao's handwriting is indeed commendable for the few streets that have been changed.

"It is difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, speaking of which Mayor Zhu has a package of construction, but has been limited by the constraints of funds, this time Yu Shuai single-handedly promoted the independence of the customs, so that Beijing has sufficient funds, and then start this transformation, it is logical. However, no matter how good the appearance is, it must be implemented after all, and Yu Shuai is indispensable to Tsinghua School and Peking University. Zhou Yichun said with a smile beside him.

"Principal Zhou is worried, Yushuai has always attached importance to education, how can there be a shortage of investment in the school, I have finally won a sum of money in this city construction, you don't want to rob me." Zhu Qichao hurriedly said.

Qin Yu had just come back from the presidential palace, and happened to see Zhu Qichuan and Zhou Yichun on the side of the street, so he called the two of them into the car, and said a few words by the way, "There is a good saying, plant a good plane tree, and the phoenix will come naturally." This Fengtian planted the tree well, so that those German professors could be retained. Although it will cost a lot of money in the moment, it will be worth it in the long run. As the capital of the Republic of China, Beijing should be generous in planning, and should not save a little money and leave hidden dangers in the future, and try to build it in place at one time. If the urban environment is improved, others are willing to live here, and talents can be retained. The economy in Germany is now sluggish, the whole country is inflationary, and the exchanges between the Republic of China and the colleges over there will not stop, so I am afraid that when the time comes, the exchanges will not be able to retain those elites. ”

In fact, Qin Yu is also for the great changes in the West more than ten years later, Hitler's dictator will definitely come to power, and a large number of outstanding physics, chemistry, and biology scientists will leave Europe one after another. At this time, the Republic of China laid a good foundation earlier, which could provide them with a stable and prosperous life. And with a very comfortable living environment, it is obviously easier to retain those most cutting-edge scientists.

"Yu Shuai, after next year, we will continue to pay the balance of Geng money to various countries, although some of the powers will return to use it for the education of the Republic of China, but after all, not all. I heard that the diplomatic side is pushing for the suspension of Geng payments, can there be any progress? Zhou Yichun asked with concern.

"This matter is very difficult, but the problem of Britain and the United States has been solved, and as for Germany, Russia does not have to pay. Now the main payment is French and Japanese. For the time being, I'm afraid I won't be able to talk about it. Qin Yu shook his head and said, "However, the investment in education will not be reduced, and I will ask President Fan to talk to you about the overall planning of international students, and there must be a focus." In addition, I heard that Plante was a very remarkable figure in academics. Tsinghua University will strengthen its investment in science and engineering in the future. Germany's defeat and economic downturn were an opportunity for all industries in the Republic of China, especially education. ”

Zhou Yichun nodded, for the success of Fengtian University of Technology, several university presidents in Beijing have had many discussions, of course, the most important reason is Qin Yu's direct support and large capital investment. But now Beijing also has Qin Yu's support. At this time, Fengtian University of Technology was far ahead in the field of science and engineering in the Republic of China, and Beijing naturally had to catch up.

………

"Welcome to the Republic of China. Mr. Brüning! After talking to Zhu Qichuan and Zhou Yichun about Beijing's municipal administration and education for a while, Qin Yu rushed back to his residence early to meet Heinrich Bruning, who had come all the way from Germany.

"It's an honor to meet you, Your Excellency!" Brüning shook hands with Qin Yu, and the strength of his hand could show his inner enthusiasm at this time, when Germany's position in Western Europe was awkward. Brüning is not the core high-level of the German Weimar Republic for the time being, and Brüning naturally has to respect Germany's largest customer at this time.

"I have always had a friendly attitude towards Germany, and there is nothing honorable about it, Mr. Brüning. Come, sit down. Qin Yu greeted warmly, no matter what identity the other party is now, he is from Germany, and Hitler did not start as a gangster.

"Your Excellency, I have come here this time to find out whether the minister intends to urge your country to re-establish formal diplomatic relations with our country, after all, the trade exchanges between the two sides have increased greatly compared with the previous establishment of diplomatic relations, and the resumption of diplomatic relations is very beneficial to both of us and you." Brüning said sincerely. Although Germany is strong, it is also very chaotic at home, due to the defeat of the war, the economic chaos, the number of unemployed people is almost millions, and the views and support of the revolution at the top of the government are also different. France, a vicious neighbor, was eager to put Germany to death, and although Britain was willing to use Germany to counterbalance France's hegemony on the European continent, it was far from reaching the standard of friendship with Germany at this time, and its support could only be ignored.

"Mr. Brüning, from my personal point of view, would be very willing to resume formal diplomatic exchanges with your country. However, there are still many unresolved problems on our side, and I think this matter will have to be postponed for the time being. Qin Yu shrugged his shoulders, he couldn't help it, now is the time when the dispute with Japan is very strong, Qin Yu doesn't want to cause dissatisfaction with Britain and France, especially France, because of this matter.

"In fact, it is just a name, as long as our country overcomes the current difficulties, the time for the restoration of diplomatic relations will not be too long, not more than two years at most, and at this time, the relationship between your two countries is not also very good?"

"Your Excellency Minister is right, and the purpose of my visit is to further strengthen commercial exchanges between the two countries, and I hope that your country will increase the import of goods to Germany, especially food and daily necessities." Brüning said that at this time, Germany was blockaded by France, coupled with domestic inflation, prices were extremely high, and the whole of Europe was facing the problem of lack of materials after the war.

"There is not much of a problem with food and daily necessities, and the price will not deliberately blackmail your country, but I hope that your country can give our country some support in some areas." Qin Yu thought for a moment and said.

"I would also like to ask Your Excellency the Minister to make this clear." ”

"Although I have purchased a large number of ordnance and military equipment from your country before, it is still insignificant compared to your country's huge military industrial system. And my sphere of influence has expanded several times, and I have become one of the de facto controllers of our regime. I want to rectify several relatively backward arsenals in my country, of course, this is indispensable for your help, I need a large number of mechanics, technicians, military equipment. If possible, I would like to work with your country to set up some weapons chambers for the development of the latest weapons and for testing their use. ”

"In addition, your country's synthetic ammonia technology is also very desirable in my country. It is hoped that the patent will be licensed in the Far East. Qin Yu smiled slightly, those military industries are extremely important, in fact, the arms industry of the Republic of China has begun to take shape, and further cooperation is to deepen the application of the German industrial system in the Republic of China.

In fact, synthetic ammonia technology is what Qin Yu wants the most at this time. Literally, it is only a technology, but it can make the agriculture of the entire Republic of China take a big step forward, and at this time, Western countries have already had a mature application of pesticides and fertilizers. But almost all of the entire Republic of China still only uses some farm fertilizer. The yield of crops per mu at this time in the Republic of China was more than 300 catties, which was considered a high yield, and this kind of output made Qin Yu a little unbearable. If there is an extra output of 200 tens of catties per mu, the Republic of China will have hundreds of millions of more wealth a year, even if the government can only get a very small part of it, but the accumulation of this wealth in the private sector will have unimaginable benefits for the promotion of industry and commerce in the future.

"I can't make a decision on this for the time being, and I will reply to Your Excellency the Minister." Brüning smiled bitterly, as one of the greatest achievements of the German chemical industry, it is not something that can be lightly conceded.

"Well, even if I don't get the authorization, I hope that your country can help me build a large-scale synthetic ammonia plant to meet my country's agricultural needs, after all, it is too troublesome to ship from your country." Qin Yu shrugged his shoulders, knowing that the Germans would not agree so lightly, so he retreated to the second, "As for your country's requirements, I will try my best to meet them, and you also know that the same goods, transported from the Republic of China to Europe, are also not marketable." ”

Brüning nodded, at this time, the prices of all living materials in Europe were still high, and Qin Yu's ability to do this was already very different from those European countries that took advantage of the fire to rob.

Ending the conversation with Brüning and watching the other party leave, Qin Yu drank the tea in his cup comfortably, with a smile on his face. Since the Manchu Qing Dynasty closed itself off from the rest of the country, China has lagged far behind the great powers in science and technology. At this time, it is the best opportunity for the Republic of China to catch up with the world's advanced technology. At this time, the Northeast was engaged in engines, U-shaped submarines, aircraft manufacturing, as well as tank technology and automobiles, which were not far behind the great powers. At the Paris Peace Conference, the French general said that a contract would only return twenty years of peace. And the Republic of China has been able to do too much in the past 20 years.
