These days, the corners of Napoleon's mouth are crooked.
The big brother of the Ming Dynasty was so righteous. Not only did he successfully mediate the war, but he also sent huge wealth to France.
The compensation of 960 million Ming silver coins cannot be spent completely.
After the war, France's major generals received awards from Napoleon in Paris, and they became heroes of France.
In the Louvre, there were banquets almost every day. The generals boasted about their achievements at the banquet, causing a group of noble ladies to exclaim.
They couldn't be happier.
Palace of Versailles.
Napoleon arrived here on an open-top steam locomotive imported from the Ming Dynasty. The guard parked the vehicle in the parking space, then got out and opened the door for Napoleon.
Napoleon wore boots made of calfskin imported from the Netherlands, a military coat presented by the Ming Dynasty, and three rows of shining medals hanging on his chest.
The medal system was learned from the Ming Dynasty, and this advanced military experience was greatly appreciated by the French generals.
Medals that reflect merit are hung on the chest, and they are admired and envied by the French people wherever they go. Generals walk on the streets with their heads held high.
Napoleon walked through the snowy gardens and entered the Ming Dynasty's Versailles Palace.
What comes into view is a group of young French maids, holding brooms, mops and buckets, cleaning the renovated Palace of Versailles.
There were also many good-looking maids, carrying dinner plates and serving tea and water to the Ming officials in the conference room.
Napoleon came to the office at the end of the corridor on the second floor, which was the office of Nie Renjie, the Ming Dynasty Ambassador to France.
When she opened the door, she saw a beautiful maid pouring milk tea for Nie Renjie, her breast rubbing against Nie Renjie's arm intentionally or unintentionally.
Nie Renjie silently pushed the maid away and looked up to see Napoleon coming in with a smile on his face.
"Your Majesty Napoleon! Why are you free to come to my place today?"
As Nie Renjie spoke, he skillfully took out a bottle of Jian Nanchun from the cabinet under the table and poured two glasses.
Napoleon watched the maid lower her head and salute him, then leave the office with the dinner plate, and then sit skillfully on the sofa nearby.
"I just came to your place to drink some wine because I had nothing else to do."
Napoleon said leisurely, took a sip from the wine glass, and then his eyes lit up.
He doesn't like Maotai, but he has a soft spot for Jiannanchun.
It's a pity that Nie Renjie also likes to drink Jiannanchun, and Napoleon may not have access to this kind of wine when he comes here.
Napoleon took another sip and thought about it.
At this time, Nie Renjie, who was sitting on the other sofa next to him, spoke.
Nie Renjie said: "His Majesty Napoleon, His Majesty the Emperor's decree came from China. His Majesty wants to transfer some technologies to Europe..."
After hearing this, Napoleon silently put down his wine glass and asked with a thought: "Is the technology you mentioned the kind of technology I thought of?"
Large steam engines, ship propellers, three acids and two bases, urea...
At this moment, Napoleon thought a lot, and he looked at Nie Renjie expectantly.
Nie Renjie smiled and answered Napoleon's question, saying: "There are too many technologies that I can't describe in words. I'd better show you the documents."
After Nie Renjie finished speaking, he stood up and went to the cabinet behind his desk and found a folder from the rows of folders.
The folder was very thick, and Napoleon's heart couldn't help but beat wildly, and the joy of a boyfriend giving a girl a gift filled his chest.
He eagerly took the document, turned to the first page, and then his eyes widened.
Documents are written in Chinese and French.
Although Napoleon knew some Chinese, but not much, it was enough for daily use, but he could not understand such technical documents with a large number of technical terms.
Fortunately, there was a French translator, which allowed Napoleon to have a general understanding of these techniques.
A large amount of technology is written in the technical document, but it does not involve specific principles and industrialization processes, only lines of technical terms.
Napoleon was dazzled. He searched carefully and found that they were all basic physics and chemistry technologies, as well as some mechanical manufacturing.
He raised his head and asked with some disbelief: "The Ming Dynasty... really wants to import these technologies into France?"
Napoleon's suspicions were justified.
These technologies cover almost the entire industrial chain of the Industrial Revolution, and Ming Dynasty is preparing to import these technologies into France.
Whenever a philanthropist comes, he will be humbled.
Napoleon thought that the Ming Dynasty was helping him mediate the war and giving him wealth was the greatest kindness.
I didn't expect it. I didn't expect it.
This is not a girlfriend sent from heaven. This is simply a marriage that has been cultivated for three lives!
Nie Renjie kept smiling, but in his heart he began to pity the future Europeans.
Is the kindness of a loving father really so easy to get?
Do you know that interest is compounded?
He answered Napoleon's question in the affirmative, making the latter smile.
If Nie Renjie hadn't been there, Napoleon would have jumped up on the spot.
The corners of his mouth raised crazily, and he looked at Nie Renjie as if he were seeing his long-lost brother.
Unexpectedly, Nie Renjie took out another document from the cabinet and silently handed it to Napoleon.
And technology?
This was Napoleon's first thought.
When he opened the file, the raised corners of his mouth gradually returned to normal.
In the end, Napoleon sighed deeply and said: "I know it, this technology is not so easy to obtain."
Generally speaking, these technologies need to be purchased with money. The more high-end the technology, the more expensive it is.
Napoleon knew that this was because his good brother Zhu Zaiming was interested in Germany's huge compensation.
But there is no way, seeing that Ming Dynasty is developing rapidly.
According to the Ming Dynasty newspaper, Ming Dynasty's physicists have made major breakthroughs in internal combustion engines and electricity, and industrial upgrading will begin in the next five years.
Napoleon was so anxious.
He hoped that Big Brother Ming would be stronger so he could protect him.
But I don’t want Big Brother to be too strong. If the two brothers break up in the future, there will be no room for resistance.
It's so contradictory.
Napoleon looked at these technologies and almost cried out. He hurriedly said goodbye to Nie Renjie and returned to the Louvre with the documents.
Napoleon needs to study it carefully with his ministers, what technology to buy and how much to spend. These all need to be discussed.
Moreover, Daming Technology Export Document also clarifies that natural resource transactions can be used, labor dispatch can be used to offset the price, and there are some discounts.
Labor dispatch, isn't it just sending some workers to work in Ming Dynasty? How much is the talent worth?
In Napoleon's eyes, population was just a number. He would only lament the limitations of population when he lacked troops.
Napoleon returned to the Louvre with the documents.
The envoys of the Ming Dynasty took the same documents and went to the Great Empire, Germany, Tsarist Russia...
Planned technology transfer not only made it possible to obtain a large amount of industrial raw materials from Europe and the colonies, but also a large amount of labor force.
As long as the technological input to each country is controlled in the subsequent negotiations and the European countries are kept in check, Ming's goal will be achieved.
The most important thing is that if you get used to using the technology you picked up for free, the self-creativity of European countries will decline.
Without their own education and physical science systems, the future of European countries will be like India. Daming will sell whatever they want, but they cannot develop it themselves.
This is a far-reaching strategy.
