Human beings will have the feeling of licking calves. This is human nature, and it is also an indelible mark deeply imprinted in the genetic code!
Prince Liutpod knew his son too well. He was young, energetic, ambitious, and had an extraordinary obsession with power. He had long coveted the throne of the Kingdom of Bavaria.
If his son fails this time and is stripped away from the center of power by Xiao Letian... Yes, the prince knows very well that his son's life is not in danger. No matter how strong Xiao Letian is, he cannot demand the execution of a European prince.
The worst outcome of this matter must be that the father and son leave the center of power in disgrace, or even be exiled to other countries... Of course, there is no need to worry about money, as they can still guarantee good food and clothing.
But without rights, can these people still live? Given his son's overpowering character, once he is deprived of his political rights, it would be even more cruel than killing him.
He couldn't control his emotions, and it was really possible that he would commit suicide. Did he really want a man with white hair to send a man with black hair?
The prince's head was buzzing. In the end, his passion for licking the calf prevailed. As a father, he couldn't watch his son go to the road of death!
"Führer... I agree in principle with your conditions, but I have no rights now! I can only influence the king on these matters, I can't make the final decision!"
"Hey... don't say that..." Xiao Letian couldn't help but feel excited when he saw the other party relenting. He patted the prince on the shoulder.
"You can't make a decision now, but you can in the future..."
"You...what do you mean?" The prince's eyes widened.
"You still don't understand what I mean? Just go ahead and do whatever you father and son should do! Do you really think I care about the interests of Ludwig II?"
Prince Liutpod understood, he twirled his beard and smiled and said, "I feel relieved because of your words... But I have to remind you that many details of these three conditions need to be modified. Don't you Chinese want to save face?" "
"Europeans actually want it too. Every decision I make needs the support of the people. I can't seem too powerless and humiliating the country!"
"I know! I have taken your concerns into consideration. Swan Castle is an architectural treasure of Bavaria. Giving it to me directly will definitely arouse public outrage. What do you think of this..."
"If the king steps down, then as the king's private property, your royal family must have the right to deal with it... You don't need to give it to me, you can give it to Princess Sissi first... As for the business between me and Princess Sissi, that is our private business Something happened!"
"The people can let it go, but they can't know it... You still have to deceive you!"
The prince suddenly laughed ambiguously, "The king's smile is a beauty? The head of state is indeed a romantic figure!"
Europe has a very tolerant culture towards lovers. The prince himself has many lovers, so he can understand Xiao Letian's thoughts.
Once Ludwig II is killed, the king's assets can be disposed of at will. It will not be difficult to forge a will and give the two castles and the surrounding land to Princess Sissi.
As for how Xiao Letian and Princess Sissi divide the spoils, that is a matter between them.
Xiao Letian waved his hand, "Don't think of me as so dirty. I want these two castles and the surrounding land. It's not just to give myself a vacation spot in Europe. My other purpose is to stay in Europe." Build a super university town here!”
"I will invest huge sums of money to build countless universities with the two castles as the center, so that scientists from all over Europe can gather here..."
"The majestic scenery of the Alps and the pastoral style of Bavaria are such a refreshing choice of sources! Isn't this the best place for learning?"
"In the future, this will be the Oxford and Cambridge of Europe, even bigger! By then, this will not only be a paradise for scientists, but also a paradise for writers, historians, and political economists..."
"Once this super university city is completed, not only our Chinese people will be able to make a leap forward, but your Bavaria will also receive huge benefits!"
"All academic research and scientific breakthroughs here are basically shared by our two families... Once the cooperation is completed, this will be our engine for the next hundreds of years!"
"What is most important in this world? Talent is the most important, science and technology are the most important! Whoever can occupy the commanding heights here can seize the opportunity of history!"
When Prince Liutpod heard this, he completely put away the dirty expression on his face and suddenly became serious.
He really didn't expect that Xiao Letian actually wanted to build a super university town plan. This man was simply incomprehensible. Isn't he doing this to make wedding clothes for others?
Xiao Letian didn't have time to explain all this to him. The national destiny had to be raced against time. China was already lagging behind, so any delay would be a crime for China.
Regardless of what Xiao Letian said before, Chinese scientists can still make various scientific breakthroughs as long as they are given time.
This sounds beautiful, but in fact it is not the same thing at all!
When it comes to science and technology, whoever develops it first will benefit first, and whoever reaps the benefit first will be able to overtake others... A slow step means a slow step. It will take you a year or two to develop it, but others have matured early. industry.
Therefore, it is not possible to study on your own behind closed doors. This model can only be a waste of resources!
Therefore, Xiao Letian must use all means to steal, rob, and deceive... All European talents must be caught in one fell swoop, and all technologies must be copied intensively.
There is only one purpose, to accelerate and shorten the technological gap between the East and the West.
Today's Chinese people do appear to be very powerful on the surface. The steel output of just one Northern Industrial Zone has exceeded the total output of the Qing Dynasty.
The industrial output value of the Northern Industrial Zone ranks first in Asia!
But so what? Up to now, we can't even make the firing pin of the Mauser rifle, and we can't get that kind of high-quality steel at all.
Another very important point is the steel used for artillery barrels. The Chinese steel factory has a yield of only 30%, while the Krupp Arsenal can achieve a yield of 70%. This is the gap in science and technology.
There is also the steel-clad technology of double-layer gun barrels, which the Chinese have not mastered either!
Although the Chinese naval shipyards in the future will be able to build some warships, in the final analysis they will still have to rely on imported parts for key power systems and firepower systems.
And these parts, in this era, are top-notch high-tech technologies, which cannot be developed by oneself in a year or two.
If you don’t rely on stealing, robbing, or cheating... what else can you rely on?
