"You're a smart man, but you're not smart enough, I won't be stupid enough to send troops to Europe now, and your stupidity lies in thinking that the Great Chongqing Kingdom will be easily wiped out like the natives."

Sitting on the red vermilion lacquered wooden chair in the official office, Xiao Ming looked directly into Dick's eyes.

Dick was silent, he had to admit that the root of this defeat was the arrogance that they had brought about over the past hundred years of foreign colonization, otherwise they would not have taken this action at all.

And now it turns out that he is fighting an industrial power in Asia.

"Your Majesty the Emperor, you are the wisest emperor I have ever seen in Asia, it is true, I think that this time both Britain and France will reconsider the relationship with the Great Chongqing State, and there will be a place in the list of civilized countries."

Dick flattered that in the 200-year history of European colonization, Europe has actually adopted two foreign policies.

For the indigenous tribes of Africa and South America, they divide them into primitive indigenous people who have not yet entered the civilized society, because these indigenous people have not yet formed a complete social structure, and their lives are mainly based on hunting, and even these tribes will eat the corpses of their enemies.

Such indigenous people were completely excluded from civilization by them, and in the process of colonization they pursued a policy of massacre.

Because they need the land and resources of these natives, and these uncivilized tribes are of no value to them, after all, many tribes have no writing and language, do not accept modern civilization, are barbaric and dangerous, and their goods cannot be sufficiently profitable for these natives.

After colonizing India, they divided into a level of civilization, which was a semi-civilized society slightly higher than the primitive natives.

For such countries that have a basic social structure, a written language, and their own goods, but lack scientific development, they adopt a policy of colonial commerce.

Because the people of such countries have enough purchasing power to sell their goods in these areas.

At the same time, these countries also have a certain ability to fight back, and they need to be cautious.

In the past, they divided the Great Chongqing Kingdom into the same second-class country as India, and their goal was to make the Great Chongqing Kingdom a second India.

But now it is clear that the Great Chongqing should be included in the ranks of civilized countries on an equal footing with them.

Thinking of this, Dick explained to Xiao Ming in detail, hoping that the emperor in front of him could be happier, because this is equivalent to glory for a country, because Europe can finally look down on this civilization.

At the end of Dick's explanation, not only Xiao Ming, Qian Dafu, Xie Yuan, Ding Chang and others all burst into laughter.

Even the translator also had a hint of mockery in his eyes.

"Congressman Dick, you seem to be mistaken, in our eyes, you Europe is a second-class country, and the current Dayu country is this!"

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 the long-formed concept for a while.

Today, in the 21st century, Western countries still look down on their country with colored glasses, and their internal propaganda is also smeared everywhere, so that many Westerners think that their country is still stuck in the backward scene of World War II.

So Dick is the same, although his life is on the line, but he unconsciously reveals his true thoughts.

"Arrogant British, one day, you will live in the shadow of the Great Yu Kingdom and tremble." Xiao Ming's eyes narrowed, "Now you better be honest." ”

Dick's body shook a little, he knew that all his clever tricks had been recognized, and the current Great Yu Kingdom was not afraid of them.

With a sigh in his heart, he had to describe the British affairs to Xiao Ming in detail.

Xiao Ming listened while asking the translator to record it, which would be the first-hand information he had obtained today.

An hour later, Dick said everything he could, and Xiao Ming asked Xie Yuan to re-imprison Dick and Wilson.

"Your Majesty, now that more than 3,000 prisoners of war are eating and living in vain, what is a waste of our money in the Great Chongqing Kingdom, and the general thinks that it is better to send them to the mine to work as coolies." Xie Yuan looked at Wilson with a dangerous gaze.

The war was won, but the navy also suffered the greatest loss since its establishment, and he felt aggrieved.

"Whatever you want, these two immortals will just do it, and I will wait for them to send a ransom to replace them." Xiao Ming said with great certainty.

According to the Dutch, there has always been a rule in Europe for ransom in exchange for captured generals, and this Wilson and Dick must have come from a large family and would have been worth a lot of money.

Then he may be able to open his mouth.

After receiving Xiao Ming's instructions, Xie Yuan was refreshed, and he asked the soldiers to take the two of them down, and ordered them to "entertain" them well.

At this time, Xiao Ming took the information given by the translator and frowned, in the description just now, Dick described the development status of Britain in detail.

Overall, steam engine technology is now developing very rapidly in Britain, perhaps because of the stimulus of the Great Chongqing Kingdom, the Queen of England allocated a large amount of money to support the application of steam engines.

The concentration of funds and talents is said to have led to the emergence of an improved second generation of steam engines, and at the same time, under this promotion policy, the aristocracy and capitalists quickly established a number of steam engine factories.

In addition to vigorously developing the steam engine in Britain itself, Britain also exported steam engines to the European continent to earn money to develop local technology, and now there is a boom in steam engines throughout Europe.

France was not willing to be lonely, and the competition with Britain for profits in the steam engine market in the European market was due to the fact that Britain cooperated and competed with each other.

"Your Majesty, Europe is a threat to us no matter what, and it is not a good thing that steam engine technology is flourishing in Europe now." Qian Dafu sighed, "Especially these two traitors have made a leap forward in Europe's basic science, and European countries are even above the Great Chongqing State in terms of culture and education, so it is easy for them to use these technologies to compete with us." ”

Xiao Ming nodded lightly, he understood Qian Dafu's worries, just as the Manchu Dynasty civil and military were also so worried.

However, he himself knows very well that the accumulation of European technology cannot catch up with the accumulation of scientific and technological crystals in any case.

Britain now has at best a high school level of technology, which at best allowed it to use the industrial power of the steam engine to the level of the First World War.

It's just that in Xiao Ming's view, in fact, this knowledge is not very important to Europe, because according to the current scientific level of Europe, it will be all possessed in 30 years of natural development.

Among them, the most critical issue now is the changes brought about by the development of Chongqing itself, which are really on the table and can be seen at a glance.

For example, electricity, the UK cannot get ready-made technology from the hands of the two, but it has obtained an accurate research direction, so scientists will naturally exert efforts in this direction, because this is a direction that does not need to be researched and ridiculed.

Historically, the slow development of science was delayed because it took many detours and was questioned by opposition forces, but now Dayu has become a beacon of scientific and technological development.

Unconsciously leading the development of science and technology in the world.
