Chapter 967: The true situation

"You are a smart person, but you are not smart enough. I will not be stupid enough to send troops to Europe now, and your stupidity lies in thinking that the Dayu Congress is easily wiped out like a native."
Sitting on the red vermilion lacquered wooden chair of the official office, Xiao Ming looked directly into Dick's eyes.
Dick was silent. He had to admit that this failure was based on the arrogance that they had brought to colonization over the past century, otherwise they would never take this action.
And now it turns out that he is fighting an industrial power in Asia.
"His Majesty, you are the wisest emperor I have ever seen in Asia. It is true. I think both Britain and France will reconsider the relationship with the Great Yu country this time. There will be a big one in the list of civilized countries. A seat in Yuguo."
Dick flattered that in the two hundred years of European colonization, Europe has actually been adopting two foreign policies.
For the indigenous tribes of Africa and South America, they classify them as primitive aborigines who have not yet entered civilized society, because these aborigines have not yet formed a complete social structure and live mainly on hunting, and even these tribes will eat the corpses of their enemies.
This kind of indigenous people was completely abandoned by them from civilization. During the colonization process, they implemented a policy of massacre.
Because they need these indigenous lands and resources, and these uncivilized indigenous people are of no value to them. After all, many tribes do not have words and languages, and they do not accept modern civilization. They are barbaric and dangerous, and their commodities cannot Sufficient profits are obtained among the indigenous people.
After colonizing India, they divided another civilization level, which was a semi-civilized society slightly higher than the primitive natives.
For this type of country that has a basic social structure, written language, and its own products, but lacks scientific development, their policy is to colonize and trade.
Because people in such countries have sufficient purchasing power, their products can be sold in these areas.
At the same time, these countries have a certain ability to fight back, and they need to be cautious.
In the past, their division of Great Chongqing was exactly the second type of country like India, and their goal was to make Great Chongqing the second India.
But now it is clear that Great Yu Country should be included in the ranks of civilized nations on the same level as them.
Thinking of this, Dick explained to Xiao Ming in detail, hoping that the emperor in front of him would be more happy, because it was an honor for a country, because Europe finally saw this civilization.
When Dick's explanation ended, not only Xiao Ming, Qian Dafu, Xie Yuan and Ding Chang all laughed.
Including the translator also has a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.
"Congressman Dick, you seem to be mistaken. In our eyes, you are the second-class country in Europe, and this is the country of Great Chongqing now!"
Xie Yuan gave a thumbs up, confident and calm.
Xiao Ming shook his head helplessly. He understood Dick's mood. In fact, like modern times, it is difficult for the West to change long-standing concepts in a short time.
In the 21st century today, Western countries still look down on his country with colored glasses, and internal propaganda is everywhere discredited, so much so that many Westerners believe that his country is still in the backward scene of World War II.
So it was the same for Dick. Although he was dead, he unconsciously exposed his true thoughts.
"Arrogant British, one day, you will live trembling in the shadow of the great Yu country." Xiao Ming's eyes narrowed, "Now you should explain honestly."
Dick's body shook, he knew that all his clever tricks had been seen through, and now the country of Da Yu was not afraid of them.
With a sigh in his heart, he had to describe the British affairs to Xiao Ming in detail.
While listening, Xiao Ming asked the translator to record it. This will be the first-hand information he has obtained today.
After an hour, Dick said everything he could say, and Xiao Ming asked Xie Yuan to detain Dick and Wilson again.
"The emperor, now more than 3,000 prisoners of war are wasting the money of our great Yu country. I will finally think it is better to send them to the mine to work hard." Xie Yuan looked at Wilson with a dangerous look.
The war was won, but the navy suffered the biggest loss since its establishment, and he felt aggrieved.
"Let's do it with you, these two will not die, I will wait for them to send the ransom to replace them." Xiao Ming said very positively.
According to the Dutch, there has always been a ransom in exchange for captive generals in Europe. Wilson and Dick must be responsible for these important tasks from a large family and will be worth a lot of money.
At that time he might be able to speak loudly.
After receiving Xiao Ming's instructions, Xie Yuan was happy in his heart. He asked the soldiers to take the two down and ordered them to "be entertained".
At this time, Xiao Ming frowned upon receiving the information from the translator. In the recount just now, Dick described the development status of Britain in detail.
Generally speaking, steam engine technology is developing very rapidly in the UK. Perhaps because of the stimulation of Great Chongqing, the Queen of England allocated a large sum of money to support the application of steam engines.
The concentration of funds and talents is said to have resulted in a second generation of improved steam engines. At the same time, under this promotion policy, nobles and capitalists quickly established a number of steam engine factories.
In addition to vigorously developing steam engines in the United Kingdom, the United Kingdom also exported steam engines to the European continent to earn money to develop local technology. Nowadays, steam engines are booming throughout Europe.
France is unwilling to be lonely. In the European market, competing with Britain for the profit of the steam engine market lies in the fact that Britain cooperates and competes with each other.
"Emperor, no matter how we say Europe is a threat to us, it is not a good thing for steam engine technology to flourish in Europe." Qian Dafu sighed, "Especially these two traitors made the basic science of Europe a leap. Coupled with the fact that European culture and education are even higher than that of Great Chongqing, they can easily use these technologies to compete with us."
Xiao Ming nodded lightly. He understood Qian Dafu's worries, just as the Manchu civil and martial arts were so worried.
But he himself knows very well that ~EbookFREE.me~ the accumulation of European technology cannot keep up with the accumulation of technology spar anyway.
The current Britain has at most a high school level of science and technology, and this knowledge has allowed it to develop its industrial capacity using steam engines to the level of the First World War.
It's just that in Xiao Ming's opinion, this knowledge is actually not very important to Europe, because according to the current European scientific standards, natural development will have all of them in 30 years.
Among them, the most critical issue now is the changes brought about by the development of the country. These changes are really on the table and can be seen at a glance.
For example, for electricity, the UK cannot get ready-made technology from the two, but it has obtained an accurate research direction. Then scientists will naturally work in this direction, because this is a direction that does not require research and wrangling.
The slow development of science in history was due to many detours and delays that were questioned by opposing forces. Now Dayu has become a beacon of technological development.
Unconsciously lead the development of world technology.
