Chapter 44: William the Traitor
"Of course there is something else. I have always been an honest businessman!" Sheffield looked at the other party inexplicably, and seemed to have unintentionally looked at the furnishings of the room, constantly saying, "You can even give a bystander view of the whole of Germany."
"From the current attitude of Britain towards the United States, the United States wishfully bowed to Britain, in exchange for humiliation. The United States now must establish close economic relations with other European countries to avoid this humiliation. Moreover, the country also needs new technology and capital input to get rid of its dependence on the United Kingdom, which can also reduce the risks and avoid the United Kingdom's economic attack on the United States. This is the purpose of the federal government. But for me, that's only a matter at the national level."
Sheffield seemed to have transformed into a Nationalist hater, distinguishing his own interests from the will of the country. The previous mention of the international situation is just to lay the foundation for his own interests, which is that simple.
As soon as the topic was changed, Sheffield mentioned the domestic market with a population of nearly 80 million, which corresponds to the world policy currently implemented by William II. After the new emperor ascended the throne, Germany now needs to establish a wide influence around the world and export its own capital and will. Sheffield felt that this could be completely aimed at the United States.
Anyway, my family was the agent of the British Empire back then, so can it help Germany develop now? In such a historical stage, the color of the comprador at home has to be retracted, but it does not need to be retracted so quickly.
Finally, Sheffield mentioned Germany's fragile agriculture and began to boast, "No one knows how to farm better than me. In the field of agriculture, I am not boasting, and no one can be more professional than Sheffield's family. With 70% of the food self-sufficiency rate in Germany, it can be the basis of cooperation. Of course, it has no intention to seize the jobs of all Germans. We are cooperation. The ultimate goal is to increase the utilization rate of German land and complete greater production with less manpower."
Sheffield finally turned around and mentioned the topic of agriculture, which must be mentioned. He paid for the patent fee and also wanted to open up the inflow of German goods. This was of course for the development of family industries, but it had a great negative impact on the United States. If Germany did not bleed at all, it would definitely not work.
Although the manufacturing industry in the United States is a little rough, its citizens are not people like Imperial Russia who have little purchasing power. Even if the Republicans want to raise tariffs, it will still be profitable. If the Germans don’t give any sweetness, Sheffield’s next stop is London. Anyway, they have been licking Britain for so long, and it’s nothing to endure for a few years, but they have to spend more money.
"Krupp is a military-industrial enterprise and can't speak for the issue of agriculture and food." Beta Krupp whispered to his servants, and said with an helpless expression, "Young Master William looked up to our family."
"Actually? Not!" Sheffield stretched out his finger and shook it, indicating that he did not agree with the other party's opinion.
The surname Krupp is better than those with Feng in those surnames. Don’t be able to see the aristocratic elements in Krupp’s surname, but this is just the surface. There are no surprises in what era? In the words of the previous life, families like Thyssen and Krupp are all existences that can reach the heavenly speaking.
Even if his status within the German Empire is not as powerful as the United States, it is not very difficult to hear his own ideas by William II. It depends on whether the other party is willing to speak.
"You can try to move, but no one knows the final result." Betakrupp shook his head and said that he could not guarantee anything. Sheffield was prepared for this. It should not be smooth because he came in person. If he had this ability, he could consider laying off God if he really had this ability.
The Germans ultimately have to make a choice based on their own interests. As for which side they think has greater benefits, no one can interfere.
After leaving the Krupp family's villa, Sheffield put his hands in his pocket and looked back at the villa, shook his head slightly, "The situation just now is very strange, don't you think?"
"This little girl is a little calmer. This generation of Krupp's children are so powerful that they can discuss things alone?" John Connor said strangely, "Maybe he is a genius like you, Master."
"I'm not a genius, and she'd better not be like me." Sheffield recalled the situation just now and said, "The servants behind her always whispered. Germany is an empire that pays great attention to magnanimity. Some people teach her to speak."
In the past few days, except for the founding of the country, which country does not pay attention to magnanimity? In fact, the United States also pays attention to this point. When Sheffield talks to others, he will not let his servants steal the show like this.
"Is it true that Cao Cao is very elegant, but the one who catches the knife at the bed is a real hero?" Sheffield's head tilted, and after thinking for a while, he felt that it was impossible. Will the Germans be so idle?
"That's how it is. Father and Sheffield's conditions are listed here, you can see." Beta Krupp told the story. Krupp's president, Fredrich Alfred Krupp, was at home, but he did not perform a true hero of the bedside knife catching man, but observed the conversation between the two children through his servants. By the way, he saw how this guest came from the opposite side of the Atlantic Ocean was like.
Sheffield was at her age and Frederick Alfred Krupp asked his daughter to come forward, lowering the other party's vigilance and looking at the other party's scheming from the side.
Beta Krupp sat quietly on the side without disturbing his father's thinking. After a while, Frederi Alfred Krupp said, "This is a good opportunity for our arms exports. Now Americans are posing in a warlike manner, but in terms of military terms, whether the United States can beat Belgium is a problem. No matter what the final result of this crisis is, I believe that Americans will be more concerned about the military. This is a good thing for us. If the whole world is safe, how will our business develop? Should we buy a bicycle?"
"I believe Sheffield will definitely go to Berlin. The US Secretary of State and his group are also asking for help from the empire. I happen to go there too." After Fredrich Alfred Krupp made a comprehensive consideration, he decided to go to Berlin in person to represent the capitalists in the Ruhr area.
Frederi Alfred Krupp was actually already moved, but it was not easy to achieve his goal. This required the German Emperor nodding and balanced the interests of the rural Junckers in Prussia.
"I've been so treacherous. If the German guy doesn't give up any benefits, then no one can do anything about it." Sheffield was sitting on the train to Berlin, thinking about cooperation. Before the final result appeared, he was also very nervous.
