Chapter 667: How Can France Show Thanks?

Soon, the German minister talked to Edgar in England again, and everyone was very happy, and Liszt knew about it, but it was not ......

In the end, Germany still did not forget the new Tang Yuan of the Pacific Empire, to put it simply, Germany is ready to use two foreign exchange reserves, one New Tang Yuan and the other is the British pound!

The main reason for this is that the British can't completely eat this list, because they don't have enough money, and if they want to play this game, they can only do this now, and it's good to take a ride.

And since the German side has done it, then the French are also happy, but Liszt is not stupid, he immediately proposed this plan of foreign exchange reserves to the French.

Use our new Tang Yuan!

It's a pity that the French are more stubborn, they didn't choose the New Tang Dynasty, after all, everyone had dirty things before, so it is impossible for a politician like Clemenceau to come to power because of populism, he can't agree to this matter.

As a result, France's foreign exchange reserves only used pounds!

Now, then, it seems that the British occupy a relatively advantageous position in the matter of competing for foreign exchange reserves, which is currently the freshest product in the world.

That's right, because the international currency at this time is the pound sterling, but the pound has not improved its status and has not become a foreign exchange reserve, that is, a reserve currency, which is equivalent to gold.

And this defeat on the French side can also be easily deduced, that is, the internationalization road of the new Tang Yuan will be very rugged, and the big war with the pound will be at a disadvantage.

But not ......

"Good! Very good! We should come to an agreement on this, right? Let's stop procrastinating, it's not good for everyone to drag it out. "Liszt's attitude......

He seems to be in a hurry, isn't this a disguised admission that we have failed on the side of France? Without making any effort?

This...... But there's no reason not to reach an agreement, right?

Thus, the issue of post-war reparations in the world war, which had been entangled for several years and had plagued many European peoples, was finally resolved!

In any case, it is acceptable to all parties. That's a very good thing!

And this news, that really exhilarates the world, well, the main thing is that Europe is excited, and when the news reaches Europe, it is a jubilation!

So, since that's the case......

"Thank you Pacific Empire!"

"We must say that the Pacific Empire has done a great thing!"

"Although I hated that empire before, I hated that emperor very much. But I also have to say, this time, they did a great job! ”

After the French people learned the news, they naturally showed a sense of gratitude, which is very normal, and everyone will be grateful to the person who helped them get more than 10 billion New Tang dollars, right?

The French people are not stupid, so they have temporarily put aside their old suspicions. And this thing, naturally. Many people want to praise the emperor of the Pacific Empire, Li Mengyang.

In other words, Li Mengyang was scolded by Europe and hacked by Europeans, France can be said to be in the vanguard, and institutions like AFP almost exist to scold Li Mengyang, the emperor of the Pacific Empire. But. There are times when he compliments him, really.

At the time of the previous Vienna World Expo, there was also a world war when the Pacific Empire sent troops......

So, as soon as the manuscript changed, it was immediate. The public opinion environment is different.

And as soon as this public opinion turns, what is the matter......

"I think we owe a little gratitude to the Pacific Empire!"

"Well, they helped us like this, and we French people can't make people think we're ungrateful!"

"Strongly agree, that's how it should be!"

So, someone proposed it in the French Congress, thanks to the Pacific Empire.

And as soon as this topic gets up, it can't be suppressed!

Why?

France is basically in a populist period now, of course, they themselves don't recognize populism, they call this democracy, so in this case, as soon as this proposal comes out, it will be difficult for you to hold it down.

That's what it means, but how do you say it?

Don't say it, it's a good idea to have someone......

"Monsieur Clemenceau! I've heard before that the famous artist Bartholdi once designed a statue for the United States of America! ”

The man who said this was Gustave Eiffel.

This Eiffel, this France made a big tower before the war, this tower is of course the Alphie Tower, by the way, this Gustav Eiffel is the designer of this big tower, the main construction engineer.

"Huh? Got this thing? When Clemenceau heard this, he was delighted.

Clemenceau's personal ability is still very strong, but the way he came to power is a bit problematic, that is, he came to power in a populist way, that is, he did not follow the right path, after all, he was the happiest when he called out in Versailles.

So, since he can do this and come to power like this, others are naturally not stupid, and everyone will follow suit, so the current atmosphere in France is that whoever shouts joy, shouts loudly, and behaves extreme on certain issues, then he can gain political prestige.

It's a very strange state, but there is no way, you Clemenceau made a start, this is a broken window effect, but now, now that Clemenceau is in power, what he has to deal with is this populist problem.

How to say it, this guy is still very capable, he is not stupid, he knows that if he goes down to such a populism, the country will be finished, but this thing is not easy to deal with, so, in itself, Clemenceau is quite tired.

Fortunately, the issue of reparations is settled, which is a major positive for Clemenceau, and he can give it a go and suppress domestic populism.

So, to express my gratitude to the Pacific Empire, such a thing, of course, you should do it, let's see.

"In that case, great! I absolutely support! ”

"Thank you, Mr. Clemenceau." Eiffel was the most famous engineer in France and even the world at this time, and his status was not low, so it was no better for him to preside over this matter.

So, what is that statue of Bartholdi?

"Huh? How is it like this? This...... Can you change it? ”

Since I want to thank the Pacific Empire, then of course I have to ask the opinion of the Pacific Empire, I can't say, I give you a gift, you don't like it and then I will give it too, right?

So, it is natural to find one, an important figure of the Pacific Empire in France, so who is this important person?

At this time, it happened to be the end of the Great War, but for the sake of stability and peace in Europe, of course, there would be a certain number of foreign troops stationed, and the name relied on was also very interesting, that is, the peacekeeping force of the League of Nations...... Well, needless to say, this name must have been given by Li Mengyang.

So, who is the supreme commander of the Pacific Empire in the League of Nations peacekeeping forces in Europe?

Blackjack Pershing, of course!

There can't be anyone else, this guy himself is the head of the volunteer army, and now that the battle is over, you can take it with you there, how good, the ferry tickets are saved.

Well, the most important reason is not the ticket, but Pershing was found, and Eiffel took Pershing to Bartholdi, and it turned out to be a statue of this great artist.

Woman, Lady Liberty!

It is indeed the Statue of Liberty, if Li Mengyang sees it, he will definitely sigh with emotion, because this is the original, the Statue of Liberty from the hand of a great artist, not the one that was enlarged later, but now......

"What? You're not satisfied? "Bartholdi, a great artist, is already an old man, old man, that temper is stubborn.

"It's not a question of satisfaction or dissatisfaction, it's a question of whether the people of our Pacific Empire like it or not, such a goddess statue will definitely not be popular, I can pack a ticket!" Pershing spoke very directly, but he didn't say that the statue was bad.

"Then ......" Bartholdi is also old after all, and people don't even complain about his bad craftsmanship, how to answer this matter, he is a little bit unwilling.

Or was Eiffel clever enough to just hear him say: "General Pershing, then, according to you, what kind of statue will be liked by the people of the Pacific Empire?" ”

Eiffel is now sure that he is going to give the Pacific Empire a huge, Eiffel Tower-like structure, such as this Statue of Liberty, then make her bigger!

This shows a lot of things, it shows the strength of our French.

But how did Pershing answer?

"Do you need to talk about that? Of course, our great Emperor of the Pacific Empire, His Majesty Clint Monyan Lee I! This answer is simply ...... Anyway, here in Pershing, the absolute correct answer, this guy is extremely respectful to His Majesty the Emperor.

So the answer......

"Mr. Bartholdi, can you make a statue of the emperor?"

"What? You asked me to make a statue of that emperor? This will not work! I'm an artist! ”

"Mr. Bartholdi~ We're here to express our gratitude."

"This ......"

"I said, you old fellow, are you still lowly to make a statue of my majesty?" People Pershing can't stand it anymore.

"What? You abominable military leader! Your hands are murderous! My hands are created! ”

"Stop bragging! You just say you can't make it, right? ”

"What's so hard about that? You wait! ”

"......" Eiffel's expression when he saw this scene......

This thing...... Seems like a good solution.

So, in this way, is the Statue of Liberty going to change, into a colossus of Li Mengyang?

Anyway, this hasn't happened yet, but something is about to happen right now......
