"Clash with Britain? Do you mean war?" Pisme shook his head. "Are you too pessimistic? As long as I am here, I will not go to war with Britain so unwisely!"

Haha... Xiao Letian smiled and said, "Prime Minister, things are changing, and there are different contradictions in society in different historical periods!"

"The biggest contradiction in Germany now is that the division pattern limits the concentration of national strength, the suppression of foreign enemies makes the German Empire unable to rise, and the point of hatred in the people now lies!"

"This is the biggest hatred point. In order to resolve this contradiction, the German people can endure poverty and hardship, and they also pin their hopes on future unity!"

"The people long for unification because they feel that after unification, life will definitely be much better. They pursue unification, but in fact they are pursuing a happy life in their ideals!"

Xiao Letian shrugged, "This is not difficult to understand. It's just like the Irish people demand independence. They also believe that their lives will be happy only after independence. This is how human nature is, and they have been pursuing the happiness in their imagination!"

"But after the victory of the Franco-Prussian War, will the people's ideal happiness really appear?" A flame thundered in Xiao Letian's eyes.

"I am pessimistic about this! Once the French-Prussian War is victorious, the whole nation will definitely fall into ecstasy at the beginning. The country is unified and various resources can be integrated. The French can also extort a compensation or land..."

"The spoils of war can make the German nation happy for a long time, but you must also remember to be happy for a while. As time goes by, new social contradictions will definitely form again!"

Beismai was stunned by the hearing. He stared at Xiao Letian intently, "I would like to hear the details, please continue..."

"What is the new contradiction?" Xiao Letian pretended to think, "I can only roughly infer one thing. The first thing is that if you lose your arms order, the domestic heavy industry will definitely be affected!"

"Prussia's economy has basically been serving the war in recent years. These consecutive wars, coupled with the upgrade of weapons and equipment, have brought huge benefits to heavy industry, especially the military industry!"

"But after the Franco-Prussian War ended, are you really going to fight again? Who else do you want to fight with? France is fighting, are you going to fight against Britain?"

"No, no, no, you will never do it. You will not do it if you anger the stupid things that angered Britain... So after the Franco-Prussian War, it was a long period of relatively peaceful development!"

"If the arms order is lost, the profit margins of heavy industries will be reduced. If the money is less, it will definitely lead to a series of factors such as an increase in the unemployment rate and a decrease in workers' welfare..."

"What's even more terrible is that Germany has no overseas market! More and more domestic products are produced, but it is far from enough to rely on domestic and European digestion alone! Without overseas markets, who will these products be sold to?"

"Without a market, capitalists will have no money to make money. The final result will be the unemployment rate increase and workers' income will decline... Isn't this a social contradiction?"

"At that time, I'm afraid that the Prime Minister will have a headache for you. Those workers who used to love you will probably turn their heads and hate you because of the decreasing bread and sausage on the table!"

"This is the new contradiction in social transformation! You must be careful!"

With a hissing, the Prime Minister sat upright, "God, you think about the problem so deeply and so far? You made me a little jealous!"

Xiao Letian smiled and poured some wine for Besmai. "So, the key to solving the problem is development. You must make domestic industry and commerce develop. Everyone has money to make money, so naturally the people can also eat some broth!"

"But if Germany wants to develop, it must rely on China's resources and market. Anyway, I have given you a path of peaceful development now, and I think you have no choice..."

"The stronger the Chinese, the larger the market size of your Asian market, and the more resources you can get!"

"So, the topic has just returned to the point where I am a Chinese and I can do more technology and other European countries may not be willing to give up, but you cannot be reluctant to give up. Not only can you not be reluctant to give up, you also have to take the initiative to give up a little more, which can ensure the Chinese and I will be a transcendent position in Asia!"

"I, Xiao Letian, are very pragmatic. I don't want to dominate the world. What I want is Asia... No, no, what I want is only the number one position in East Asia!"

"One prospers and one another prospers, one another loses! Cheers!"

Bismai smiled helplessly and had a drink, "It seems that I can only accept your university town plan unconditionally. I will have to provide you with some discounts at that time?"

"That's right, if you want us Chinese to be good, then that's what it really has to do..."

"What about the Baghdad Railway Plan? Is your purpose really just for the flow of materials and commodities?"

Speaking of the Baghdad Railway Plan, Xiao Letian's expression became serious. "Prime Minister, this railway leads from Berlin to Baghdad in the Mesopotamia... This is not just a trade route, but also a lifeline of the German Empire!"

"You must know that the ocean is controlled by the British. It is easy to say during peacetime. If one day... I said that if one day, war breaks out, how can you use the trade routes on the sea?"

"There is a day when you will find that domestic goods cannot be delivered and foreign resources cannot be transported in! The war can only be sustained by a little domestic savings!"

"Once you cannot fight quickly and fall into a hard battle that consumes resources, the heroic German warriors will probably not be defeated by the enemy, but will be defeated by bread and sausage!"

"Prime Minister! There is really one day when I, Xiao Letian, can't help you even if I want to help you. The supplies I mobilized in Asia cannot be transported. Think about how terrifying that scene is?"

But once the Baghdad Railway is built, what are you afraid of? Do the German army have any concerns when fighting along its own railway?

If they really compete with the British in the army, are they the opponent? As long as the German resource spell is broken, who have you ever been afraid of in the matter on the battlefield?

The railway was built from Berlin, traveling through the entire Central Europe, entering Austria, then entering the Balkans, and finally entering the Ottoman Empire and then entering the Mesopotamian Basin.

Such a line can completely avoid the British navy, and you will really create a safe lifeline!

"While building this railway, you also have to share railway technology with us. At that time, China has two railway arteries, one horizontal and one vertical, and that horizontal will cross the entire Xinjiang!"

"The railway entered Central Asia and then connected in the Ottoman Empire. By then, the pattern of the whole world would have changed a lot!"
