765 Departs for home

Lin Yuan said: "Prince George would not have inherited the throne, it was his brother Prince Victor who was going to inherit the throne, but Prince Victor died of pneumonia, so he inherited the throne, you wait here, I will go and talk to Prince George." ”

Lin Yuan walked towards Prince George, Prince George heard the footsteps, looked back at Lin Yuan, and said loudly, "Look! A straight line came over. ”

The people around them laughed loudly when they heard the prince's words, Lin Yuan was stunned by laughter, and thought, "Straight line? What does that mean? At this time, Prince George walked a few steps quickly to Lin Yuan, stretched out his hand enthusiastically, and said with a smile: "Mr. Lin Yuan, just kidding, don't mind." ”

Lin Yuan then understood that after Lin Yuan went abroad, foreigners called him "LinYuan", and Prince George deliberately pronounced "Lin" very similar to the pronunciation of "straight line", so everyone laughed, Lin Yuan thought: "Prince George has a naval education, and the days on the warship are very boring, except for training is training, so the sailors have practiced their own ability to have fun for themselves, and Prince George is the same, he is a famous king with witty behavior." ”

Lin Yuan didn't care, stretched out his hand and shook Prince George, Prince George smiled: "I've heard about you a long time ago, it's amazing, I didn't expect you to be so young!" ”

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Your Royal Highness, do you want to go to our China?" ”

Prince George hurriedly said: "Of course, I heard that China is a good place, with many beautiful scenery. ”

Lin Yuan was also surprised to hear that he agreed so simply, so he said, "Okay, you can go to China with me." ”

Prince George readily agreed, Lin Yuan knew that the British royal family has a special train, if the British royal family proposes to use this special train, it will definitely have to coordinate with the Russian side a lot, in that way, it will definitely not be able to go in a month, and he will leave in the last few days, so Lin Yuan said to Prince George: "I know that your royal family has a special train, if you want to take that train, I'm afraid we can't go together." ”

Prince George smiled heartily and said, "Isn't it just a train?" It's the same for everything you sit! Actually, I still know how to sail a ship, or you can follow me, and I'll get a big ship to make sure that you and the people of your mission can be brought safely to China. ”

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "What a witty prince. Lin Yuan said: "Okay, this can be regarded as your promise, and the future will be left to you." ”

Prince George then went to report to Queen Victoria, and the British side also wanted to send someone to China to have a look, so he readily agreed, and when the luncheon was over, Lin Yuan went to the press conference, at which China, Russia, and Britain issued a joint statement on the negotiations, which said: "Although no substantial progress has been made in this meeting, China and Russia have participated in the negotiations on the basis of the principle of mutual trust, which has provided a valuable reference for the settlement of international disputes in the future." ”

In the evening, Lin Yuan met with Prime Minister Cecil again to discuss the matter of sending an ambassador to the United Kingdom, and the two sides immediately signed the "Memorandum of Understanding on China's Dispatch of Ambassadors to the United Kingdom", and soon Lin Yuan will send an ambassador to the United Kingdom.

After all these things were arranged, three days later, Lin Yuan took people to set off and return to China, and Prince George also followed Lin Yuan, accompanied by his princess, Princess Mary, who was supposed to marry Prince George's brother, but died before Prince Victor could get married, and then married George.

The British royal family naturally dispatched a lot of security personnel to accompany him, and at the suggestion of the British side, the Russian ambassador Giles was also escorted and accompanied. However, according to the historical data that was later declassified, the Russian side did not have any plans to harm Lin Yuan on the train, but Lin Yuan thought too much.

When the train passed through France and Germany, the scientists who had been "conquered" by Lin Yuan boarded the train, and Lin Yuan signed relevant scientific and technical exchange agreements with the foreign powers, so they could travel freely to China.

The train was speeding on the vast European plain, Lin Yuan thought to himself: "The harvest of this trip to Europe is still very great, first of all, it has brought many outstanding scientists back to China, these scientists are in the field of basic science, Europe has lost them, and the original scientific and technological progress will definitely be greatly delayed, which will leave time for their own development." ”

"The second is to find out a lot about the military situation of various European countries, especially to see the birth of the British dreadnought, and in the future, we will be able to design our own warships according to this kind of warship; The third is to sign agreements with France and Britain for the return of cultural relics, but there will be many twists and turns when claiming cultural relics in the future, but at least from the legal point of view, it has an advantage. ”

"The third is the economic aspect, the sale of related technology and equipment, will bring a lot of money to themselves, into the European and American markets, and this visit also shows a new image of China to foreign countries, the fly in the ointment is: this negotiation has not achieved any favorable results, want to get back their own territory, including five million square kilometers from the Lena River to the Pacific Ocean, it seems that they still have to rely on the means of war."

The train went all the way north, gradually entering the territory of Russia, Lin Yuan looked at the vibrant scenery outside the window, and couldn't help thinking: "It's already July, and I have been staying in Europe for more than four months before I know it." ”

Lin Yuan was thinking about it, Gilles suddenly walked into the carriage he was in, since the negotiation ended, Gilles has been much friendlier to Lin Yuan, and he always smiled when he saw Lin Yuan, but Lin Yuan always felt that his smile was very crazy, so he was still willing to look at Gilles with a cold face.

Gilles didn't take the initiative to talk to Lin Yuan along the way, but today he took the initiative to come to Lin Yuan's carriage, Lin Yuan felt very surprised, so he looked at Gilles and didn't speak, Gilles walked to Lin Yuan and sat down, and then smiled: "It's almost to Moscow." ”

Lin Yuan smiled and said, "Mr. Giles, are you here to register for me?" ”

Gilles also smiled when he heard Lin Yuan's words, and said, "I want to give you some gifts in Moscow." ”

Lin Yuan asked, "What gift?" ”

Gilles replied: "There are some Chinese businessmen in Moscow, and the negotiations between our two countries are not going well, and they are in great trouble!" As you know, there are quite a few impulsive young people in our country, and they have taken their anger at you Chinese businessmen that the negotiations are not going well. ”

When Lin Yuan heard this, he immediately thought to himself: "Is he going to be unfavorable to us Chinese businessmen?" So he immediately asked, "What happened to these merchants?" ”

Giles smiled: "Don't worry, they have all been protected by us, and they are now in Moscow, if you want to find it convenient, you can bring them home." ”

Lin Yuan thought to himself: "These Chinese merchants must be Lu Wansu and them, and I am still looking for them, because they will be our first advance force to enter Mongolia!" ”
