C2600 On the Great Power of the World (2/2)
Xiao Letian smiled as he poured some wine for Bismark. ”So that's why, the key to solving this problem is still development, you must let our country's business develop. Everyone will earn money now, so naturally the citizens will be able to eat some meat soup!”
”But if the Germany wants to develop, then they must rely on China's resources and market. Since I have given you a path of peaceful development, I think you have no other choice …”
”The stronger we Chinese are, the bigger the market you have in Asia, and the more resources you can get!”
”So, back to the topic just now, other European countries might be reluctant to part with more technology for the Chinese, but you can't be reluctant to part with it. Not only can you not bear to part with it, you have to take the initiative to give a little more, which can ensure the transcendent position of our Chinese in Asia!”
”I, Xiao Letian, am very pragmatic. I don't want to dominate the entire world, and what I want is just Asia … ”No, no, no, what I want is only the number one position in East Asia!”
”Both of us will prosper, and both of us will suffer losses!” Cheers! ”
Bismark helplessly laughed and toasted: ”It seems that I can only unconditionally accept your college city plan. At that time, I will have to give you some preferential treatment?”
”That's right. If you want our Chinese clan to be good, then you really have to do this …”
”What about the Baghdad Railway plan? Is your goal really just for the flow of goods and goods? ”
Speaking of the Baghdad Railway Plan, Xiao Letian's expression became serious. ”Prime Minister, this railway line from Berlin to Baghdad in the two river basins... This is not just a trade road, this is also a lifeline for the German Empire! ”
”You have to understand that the sea is controlled by the British. In times of peace, you can always say so. If one day... I say, if there comes a day when war breaks out, how are you going to use the trading routes on the sea? ”
”One day, you will find that the domestic products cannot be sent out, and the foreign resources cannot be brought in! ”The war can only continue on with a little bit of savings in our own country!”
”As long as we do not end the battle quickly and fall into a bitter battle which consumes all the resources, the heroic Germany Warriors would probably not be defeated by the enemies, but by the bread and sausages instead!”
”Prime Minister! If that day really comes, I, Xiao Letian, would be unable to help you even if I wanted to.
But once the Baghdad Line is built, what are you afraid of? The Germany's army was fighting along their own railway line, what other concerns did they have?
If they were going to compete with the British in the army, would they be their match? As long as the Germany's resource curse is broken, who are you afraid of anything that happened on the battlefield?
The railway construction began in Berlin, passing through all of Central Europe, entering the Austria and then the Balkans, and finally entering the Ottoman Empire and then the two rivers.
Such a route could completely avoid the British navy, and then you would really be able to create a safe lifeline!
”When you build this railway, you have to share its technology with us. At that time, China will have two railway arteries, one of which will cross the entire Xinjiang!”
”After the railway enters the Central Asia, it will be connected at exactly that time. At that time, the entire world's structure will truly change!”
