Jonas's face changed slightly, "I believe that your country has not always been willing to submit to the rule of the British, and the proud Germanic people, if they are willing to be a watchdog, then I will not say much." ”
"But I see the ambition and ambition of your country here in Boer," Cixi opened her red lips slightly, her expression was charming, and she seemed to say some incantation that could cause worldwide harm, "The Boers will definitely not be able to support it without the support of your country, of course, these days, the situation of the Boers has become sad since the beginning of this year, this is nothing more than that your country has now reduced its support for the Boers, and I believe that the German Foreign Office is also under pressure from the British." Pressure is one, and Chancellor Bismarck's principle of the priority of Germany's European interests also illustrates the shift in your country's focus. ”
"This is all your assumption, Your Majesty." Jonas silently said, "We will not be able to make an official acknowledgment of this on any occasion. ”
"Of course," the Empress Dowager Cixi laughed, "so we're just talking in the darkroom, aren't we?" Our two emerging countries are being bullied if they want to expand their influence in the international community. ”
"We in China only want to keep the surrounding vassal states, and we have no interest in overseas colonies, and of course we don't have the ability, so we seem to be in conflict with France, Britain, and Russia at the moment, but I'm not afraid at all, ambassador, do you know why?"
"Because European countries are far away from the East Asia-Pacific."
"That's right, the geographical distance makes it impossible for them to focus on Asia, of course, the pressure we are under is not very great, the big deal is just the loss of some subject countries, as for Alaska, it is because the United States does not have a threat, at least for now."
The Americans are still professional soy sauce parties, not only the British look down on them, even the French do not think the Americans are good, since the Americans and the Chinese got closer, "of course you will ask, there is gold here in Boer, why not go out and mine it yourself, this is definitely a stupid question, because we can't go to Africa, it's too far away from Britain and France to focus on Asia." ”
"Bull this place," the Empress Dowager Cixi stretched out her soft silk painted with big red nails and pointed to Bull, the northern part of the Republic of South Africa in the future, "as long as your country rules here, then you can connect the two colonies together, your country must have such an idea, but weigh the pros and cons, the interests of Bull are not as good as the loss of falling out with the British, so I will be ready to give up, then I now give your country a reason, a chance to fall out with the British, a chance to have a Boer, How about a huge opportunity to make a profit in Africa? Mr. Ambassador. What are you going to do? ”
Bismarck is getting older, and Crown Prince Frederick is increasingly dissatisfied with Bismarck's increasingly relaxed and conservative policy, and has repeatedly criticized Bismarck's foreign policy, especially his policy towards Britain, which is particularly weak.
"The world is almost divided," Jonas pondered for a long time before nodding, "I agree with you, Your Majesty, that Germany must maintain its original territory abroad and develop it reasonably and properly. ”
It's done, the corners of the Empress Dowager Cixi's mouth curled, "Then congratulations to Germany, if we need help in this matter, we will be obliged." ”
Anyone will be interested in the huge gold mine, especially the things that are readily available under the eyelids.
"Why would China help Germany? Forgive my curiosity, Your Highness," Jonas raised an eyebrow, "I do not accept any talk of friendship between our two countries, of course our two countries now have a common enemy, but to Britain your country seems to be very hostile. ”
"Because we are afraid of any super-big country, and Britain's excessive interference in the affairs of the Far East has affected China, which I don't need to say, the ambassador has seen the recent events, and we must unite the forces that can be united to seek independence in the struggle, and I believe that this is certainly not too much."
Of course, this is also a good way to say that the British do not want to interfere in themselves, but the excessive strength of the British has indeed affected China, not to mention that these warships are now patrolling and demonstrating along the coast of China, which is definitely not a performance worthy of China, they just want to treat China as a servant.
No ruler of a big country with a backbone would want to be a servant of another country.
"We have a common enemy, we have common interests, and we can speak together on international affairs, China and Germany are natural allies, aren't they?" Empress Dowager Cixi said with a smile.
"What does Your Highness need Germany to do?" Jonas was ready for the Chinese to make an offer, and there could be no free lunch at any time.
"In the future, if there is an opportunity, I hope to dig a gold mine in Boer under the leadership of your country, as a money-making business, of course, this is just a business, we have other things," Empress Dowager Cixi beckoned to Li Lianying, Li Lianying took a fold from her sleeve and handed it to the Empress Dowager, the Empress Dowager motioned to Ambassador Jonas to show it, Jonas looked twice, and immediately stood up again, "Your Majesty, I really admire you," Jonas showed a happy expression on his face, "I have seen the Queen Mother and Empress of many countries, No woman has as much courage and action as you! ”
"Ambassador, do you agree?" Empress Dowager Cixi said with a smile.
"I can definitely call the shots in this matter, and I can guarantee that there will be absolutely no opposition in the country, and I thank the Queen Mother for giving Germany such an opportunity again," Jonas bowed deeply to the Empress Dowager Cixi, "to show friendship in the midst of the economic crisis." ”
"Your Majesty, I will first negotiate with France and Germany in the name of the ambassador," Jonas seemed to accept the gift, and said with great joy, "I will also send the situation back to Berlin, and ask the Foreign Secretary, and perhaps even Prime Minister Bismarck, to intervene at the diplomatic level, and to express a strong protest against the violation of German sovereignty by the Suez Canal Company. ”
"That's good," the Empress Dowager Cixi nodded, sure enough, there was no need to beat the drum with a hammer, and in the later stages of the conversation, the Germans would naturally show their sincerity, "Your ambassador can talk to the Prime Minister Yamen in the future, I hope this matter can be implemented quickly, the sooner the better." ”
