Great Warlord: The Second Ancestor of the Empire

After Lin Yi made his decision, he took Fang Zhong towards the embassy of the Hans Empire.

After returning to the capital, Zhao Xu was called back to the palace by Zhao Xu. After all, Zhao Xu hasn't seen Zhao Xi for almost a year.

I heard that his real aunt, Zhao Xu's royal queen and Zhao He's biological mother, had been urging Zhao Xu in his ears every day to let Zhao He go back.

Lin Yi felt that there was nothing important to do during this period, so he gave Zhao He a holiday.

It is strange to say that a prince gave the current prince a holiday. It can be regarded as an anecdote from ancient times to modern times.

Since he was in the capital, safety could still be guaranteed, so Lin Yi didn't bring many guards. He just brought Fang Zhong and another guard to the outside of the Hans Empire's embassy.

When Leinster heard the report from his entourage that Lin Yi was looking for him, Leinster did not dare to delay and hurriedly went out to greet him.

Following Leinster into the embassy, ​​a strong Gothic decoration style appeared in front of Lin Yi.

However, Lin Yi knew that he was not here today to see the decoration of Hans Empire.

After Lin Yi sat on the sofa, he straight to the point told Leinster what Daxia needed to do in the next period of time.

For example, a steel factory, or some weapons production lines. And of course, there are those two big railroads.

Leinster expressed his joy and approval that Lin Yi was able to purchase their country's production lines and steel plants.

But for the large railway project, the Hans Empire still needs to compete with countries such as John State, and expressed a little bit of dissatisfaction.

But when Leinster learned that the railways that Daxia wanted to build were two major projects with more than [-] kilometers each, his little dissatisfaction suddenly disappeared.

Just kidding, two [-]-kilometer railways add up to more than [-] kilometers.

No matter how conceited Leinster was, he did not think that the Hans Empire alone could complete such a large project within ten years.

Therefore, cooperation with other countries is inevitable.

However, Lin Yi considered that the Hans Empire was an ally of Daxia, and the Hans people upheld the rigor of the Germans, so Lin Yi planned to hire an additional team of engineers from the Hans Empire to serve as quality inspection.

Leinster expressed great agreement with Lin Yi's proposal. At the same time, Leinster patted his chest and assured Lin Yi that they would strictly control the quality of the two railway lines.

Later, Lin Yi talked to Leinster about some production lines and steel plants.

Two hours later, Lin Yi and Leinster reached a cooperation between the two countries.

This cooperation agreement, which does not include railways, involves an amount of up to 2500 million imperial silver dollars.

After receiving such a large trade contract, Leinster was also grinning widely.

Later, Leinster said that for the sake of friendship between the two countries, the Hans Empire was willing to open the Hans Empire's Hamburg Military Academy to Daxia.

Every summer, two hundred international students can be sent to the Hamburg Military Academy.

At the same time, Leinster also said that the Hans Empire could send an expert team composed of elite engineers from all walks of life to Daxia to help Daxia complete its industrialization reform.

For these expert groups, Daxia does not need to pay a cent of salary, as long as Daxia can ensure the daily needs of these expert groups.

Lin Yi expressed his gratitude for this. In Daxia now, it can be said that there is a shortage of everything, but there is a shortage of people, especially top talents like the expert team.

After the meeting with Leinster, Lin Yi visited Ambassador Andrew of John Country the next day.

After the same pleasantries, Daxia and John Guowan reached a trade agreement worth 2500 million imperial silver dollars.

In addition to some of the industrial equipment mentioned before, Lin Yi also bought two more dry dock equipment.

After all, Lin Yi still wants to build his own warship, so he must have a dry dock.

Otherwise, it would be impossible to build large ships with the existing wet docks in Daxia.

And in this world, which country has the largest and best dry dock technology? Apart from the kingdom of John, only Millicia is left.

However, Milician is now pursuing an isolation policy. If he wants to buy a dry dock from them, they probably won't sell it.

With John State, at least I can use the big railway to seduce the other party. The success rate is higher than that of going to Milician.

Andrew was okay at first. When he heard that Lin Yi wanted to buy John Guo's industrial production lines and lathes, he agreed without even thinking about it.

But when he heard that Lin Yi wanted to buy their dry dock, he refused without even thinking about it.

Are you kidding? The navy of John Empire is now able to dominate the world.

Of course, Daxia's current fleet was excluded by Andrew.

However, Andrew is equally confident that in one or two years, John's empire's navy will become the strongest.

Besides, at least the total tonnage of the Daxia fleet is not half of the John Empire, and this still includes the battleships of the Rakshasa Kingdom and the Sakura Kingdom captured by Daxia.

If we only count Daxia's new battleships, they are a fraction of the tonnage of John's country.

Don't even think about selling your country's national treasure to Daxia. Not to mention doors, there won't even be windows.

However, when he heard that Daxia still had two railways with a total length of more than 8000 kilometers that needed to be built, and the total value was at least more than [-] million imperial silver dollars, Andrew immediately said, "No windows?" It doesn't matter, I will personally smash a door for Your Excellency the Prince!

What is the equivalent of one hundred million imperial silver dollars? It directly exceeded the tax revenue of John State for two years.

Remember, the taxes mentioned here refer to the taxes collected by John's empire all over the world.

You must know that John's empire is called the empire on which the sun never sets. Just imagine how many colonies he has around the world.

It’s hard to overstate how much money is made every day.

But even so, the construction price of the two railways exceeded the two years of tax collection by the John Empire. This shows how big the benefits are.

Andrew can guarantee that when the big guys in Downing Street hear that Daxia is willing to give them a price of [-] million to build two railways, they will definitely dismantle and pack the dry dock in John State overnight.

However, when he heard that these two railways needed to be built within ten years, he felt that it was impossible.

Building a railway does not mean that you can just find a place to build it. You must first explore, then measure, and finally plan the route and construct.

No matter how fast he moves, if he can repair half of the mileage in ten years, Andrew will be very happy.

And Lin Yi is very stuck on the standard line of ten years. If he cannot complete it, he will not be qualified to bid.

Hearing what Lin Yi said, Andrew and Leinster both thought of each other.

Perhaps such a large project can only be completed if the two countries cooperate.

At this time, Andrew did not dare to agree to Lin Yi casually. After all, the Hans Empire was involved. No matter how powerful Andrew's authority was, he would not be able to agree to Lin Yi immediately. He needed to report to Downing Street.

Lin Yi naturally agreed with Andrew's desire to discuss the matter with Downing Street, and Lin Yi also told Andrew that he would wait for John Guo's reply.
