Chapter 163: Different Dreams in the Same Bed

Tomorrow is 515, the anniversary of the starting point, and the day with the most benefits. In addition to the gift bag and school bag, this time's "515 Red Envelope Flip" must be seen, how can there be a reason not to grab the red envelope, set the alarm clock high~

The Americans eventually came together with Britain and Japan, and Ambassador Hay thought he knew the British, but in fact the British and the Japanese knew what the Americans wanted, and the Americans didn't know each other's demands and bottom lines. When the two sides began to cooperate, the Americans already suffered, of course, if only from the current situation, it was only a loss.

"At present, from the analysis of the information we have obtained, His Royal Highness Prince Ruprecht has a very unfriendly attitude towards us. We tried to get in touch with the German central government and the Bavarian government, but to no avail, and the Germans decided that the higher price would win. Lord Hamilton said.

"To some extent, our interests are aligned, and it is our fundamental purpose not to let the Spaniards get these two ships. And in order to achieve this goal, I think your country should also do its part, after all, we are all very clear about your country's demands. Two 10,000-ton warships must be putting a lot of pressure on your country, right? Mutsu Munemitsu was beating a side drum on the side.

"Not letting the Spaniards get it and letting your country get it are two completely different concepts, and although the Russians tore up the treaty, it is clear that the prince hated Japan much more than the Russians, and the Russians were ready to pay enough to get back what was rightfully theirs, and I do not think that Japan would be able to match the financial resources of Russia if it were fair competition. After all, you've just fought a losing war! ”

After seeing the friendliness of the Germans and the difficulties of the British, even Wilson, who originally had some affection for the British, could not help it. Although he hated the German system, hated the feudal king, and believed that the United States was the model of civilized society, and Britain and the United States were natural allies, but faced with the conditions of the British. He still couldn't help it, and he stuck his face to other people's cold butts, which was not Wilson's style.

"Very well, according to what you said, not letting the Russians get it and letting the Spaniards get it are the same two different concepts for the Japanese Empire. Even if the Russians got 2 warships, they would still not be able to gain superiority over the British and Japanese navies in the Far East at the same time. Our attitude towards these two battleships was not enthusiastic. If it weren't for the fact that the price was cheap enough, we could have given it up completely. Accept the reality that the Spaniards bought it. Mutsu said with a smile that as a top figure in Japanese diplomacy, it was enough to deal with Hay and the fledgling Wilson.

"But." Hay looked in surprise at the smiling Lord Hamilton, who was silently supportive of the Japanese representative. But it is clear that this support has made Hay somewhat angry.

"We didn't break our promise. We are only neutral, and we are not obliged to help your country, and the affairs of each country should be resolved by the country concerned, right? Lord Hamilton said with a smile.

"The British really can't be trusted." Wilson, who watched coldly from the sidelines, silently labeled the British government. But to be honest, the British did not break the contract, neutral, Spain and the Americans fought what the outcome depends on, the British do not help each other. It's just that the Americans understand that there is a problem, and if there is a problem in the brain, the British are not responsible.

It would not be surprising if Ruprecht were here, since the British have historically always been meant to be extremely egoistic. The United States helped the Allies win World War I, but the Americans did not gain much from the Paris Peace Conference. During the interstitial war. In order to balance the influence of France in Europe, the British and mustaches came together and made a cut in naval construction. These facts prove that the British are really clever in exploiting loopholes and playing small actions! Yin people are normal, but not yin people are contrary to common sense!

Of course, Ruprecht's intelligence reservations about the Americans are also a very important reason. In order to increase the sense of urgency of the Russians, Prince Ruprecht showed the Russians a copy of the Japanese agreement, and used this as a starting point to induce the Russians to think in the most dangerous direction. But for the Americans? His Royal Highness the Prince didn't trust it in the first place, and everything he did was not the so-called close relationship. Since it is a use, then naturally some should let the other party know, and some will not let the other party know. So the Americans did not know the urgency of the Japanese.

"The basis of our cooperation with your country can only be for Japan to finally acquire these two warships. In the final analysis, this competition is a competition of funds, so we hope that your country can provide some loans or buy our national bonds. Mutsu Munemitsu stated the purpose of the trip.

"We can convince His Royal Highness Prince Ruprecht to sell the battleship to Japan on equal terms. Is it okay to do this? Hay said in deep thought. When he said this, it was already tantamount to making a concession to Japan, after all, in the eyes of the Americans, Japan had a better result after acquiring battleships than the Russians!

"Then I wish us a happy cooperation." Mutsu Munemitsu looked at Lord Hamilton next to him, and after seeing the latter nod, the Japanese Foreign Minister happily accepted the terms of cooperation.

"I don't like the British! I feel that your years of efforts have not paid off, and that the British do not regard the United States as friends. They were more inclined to Japan than to the United States in the Far East. That evening, when Hay told the other two about the results of the trilateral talks between the United States, Britain and Japan, Theodore Murphy. Roosevelt was the first to express his dissatisfaction with Hay.

"But we've at least achieved our goal, and these two ships won't fall into the hands of the Spaniards, will they?" Wilson lifted his glasses and came out to play the round.

"And all this does not seem to have exceeded the prince's expectations, the British can only be friends with second-rate countries, and they are always wary and even hostile to first-rate countries." Day said thoughtfully.

"Well, we'll just be responsible for the quid pro quo, and let's not forget that the prince won't give up without the President of the United States and our signature, and I've never been able to figure out what is the value of this document since he can throw away tens of thousands of pounds. Will it be our handle? Hay was a little confused. His perception told him that it was better not to sign the document, but he couldn't find the crux of the matter.

"Then let's start preparing, we're running out of time, and hopefully the dust will settle this month. I'm ready to contact the country now. If we do it soon, we may be able to get this president-authorized deal before the bidding closes. Roosevelt said.

"What if the bidding ends before the deal comes to Germany?" Wilson asked.

"That's impossible. Isn't it a matter of someone's words who is the winner and how long the bidding will take place. Roosevelt shook his head and said.
