Back to Ming Dynasty with Industrial Revolution System

Chapter 1798 The International Expo ends
When the ambassadors of various countries participated in the World Expo in the Oriental capital for a long time, they successively visited the subway, the Crystal Palace, the International Zoo and Botanical Garden, the aircraft manufacturing factory, and the Weihaiwei Naval Base. What they saw here left a deep impression on them.

For the princes and nobles who served as envoys, this place is like a country that exists in legends.

After they stayed here for a while, they gradually integrated into the capital.

However, as the goods they ordered at the World Expo are packed one after another, their journey will come to an end.

Many of the missions are lords of the western world, and they have their own territorial affairs to deal with.

The emperors of Persia, the dukes of Brandenburg, the kings of Denmark, the kings of Portugal, and others kept in touch with their realms only by means of telegraphs and via submarine cables.

If they stay here for a longer time, something may happen to their territory.

"Your Majesty, their people have helped us deliver all the ordered cars to Tianjin Wei's wharf. The ships we brought couldn't carry so much cargo, so I directly bought one of their Huaxia galleons and put The goods are shipped to our Persia." The Persian dignitaries reported to Abbas II.

The young emperor touched his chin: "Can you buy enough gasoline for the car?"

"I have bought enough to last for three years. They reminded that this thing called 'gasoline' is extremely flammable and should not come into contact with open flames, and asked us to be careful during transportation." The Persian dignitaries replied.

"That's weird, where did they get the gasoline? I still don't know where it comes from."

"The Huaxia people must have regarded it as a secret, so they deliberately kept it secret. The price of gasoline they sold to us is really high."

"I think one day we'll learn the secret."

It was several years later that the young Abbas II learned that the gasoline that Chu Yun sold to the Persians came from the oil extracted from the Persian Gulf. When he found out, he immediately became furious...

As the Persian missions were preparing to leave, missions from other countries were also making their own preparations.

Friedrich William from the Principality of Brandenburg-Prussia took the Junker nobles and left busy to buy everything that could be bought.

"If we want Brandenburg to replace Austria and unify Germany, we must learn everything from the East, so that we can become so powerful. If we can learn one-tenth of the East, our Brandenburg and the Principality of Prussia He will definitely be able to rule the German region instead of Austria." After Friedrich William made up his mind to return to the Principality of Prussia, he would compromise with the local Junker nobles and obtain their support for Easternization reforms.

The group of them collected books, ceramics, clothes and other things they thought had oriental characteristics like crazy, thinking that all of them might be the reason why the other party became powerful.

Friedrich William and others even wanted to hire a group of craftsmen to go back to help them make the Principality of Prussia stronger.

"Your Highness, according to the itinerary, we still have three days to leave the East and prepare to return to France. All the tea, silk and porcelain have been shipped. You have also seen the power of the East this time. To deal with the East frequently, please be careful to deal with them, and try to complete the important task of dominating Europe without offending them." Prince Condé reminded Louis XIV of the itinerary.

"Can we hire some chefs to return to Paris? The oriental dishes have a unique taste. I think Paris, as the cultural center of Europe, should have delicacies from all over the world." Louis XIV said.

"It's not a problem to hire a cook here to go to Paris..." Prince Condé replied.

The French Bourbon royal family still has enough financial resources to hire a few cooks, and it is estimated that the other party will not refuse.

"When we return to Moscow, I think I need to propose to my elder brother, His Majesty the Tsar, to form a study tour group to the Eastern capital. If we, Tsarist Russia, want to eliminate the threat to us from the Kingdom of Poland, we need to learn advanced knowledge from the East." Tsarist Russia Princess Irina said to the dignitaries of Tsarist Russia, "If His Majesty the Tsar agrees with my idea, I will come to study with the envoys."

"Will the Easterners agree to us sending people to study!?"

"Their Mr. Chu has already agreed, we just need to send someone to negotiate with their Ministry of Rites."

Grand Vizier Koprulu of the Ottoman Empire was arguably one of the most depressing of these men.

One purpose of his mission to the East this time was to ask Chu Yun to cancel the "Constantinople Treaty" and recover Egypt or Greece. After seeing the power of the East, he did not dare to ask to return to Egypt and Greece.

Because he knows that making a diplomatic request as a weak country that the other party will obviously reject will not only fail, but also bring shame on himself.

"Our Ottoman Empire has lost half of Egypt and the whole of Greece one after another. The Third Mediterranean War cannot break out again, otherwise we will lose more land." Kopluluben also planned to try his best to help the empire recover the lost land before it was buried. Now that he came to the east and looked at it this way, he was over seventy years old and could not help the Ottoman Empire restore its former glory in his lifetime.

He intends to go back and warn his descendants that the East is dangerous, and try not to provoke them.

"If the "Freedom of Navigation Regulations" treats all member states that have joined the regulations in a fair manner, our parliament in the Netherlands may consider joining the "Freedom of Navigation Regulations" formulated by their Chinese. Although our Netherlands and your Spanish We have fought a war for 80 years, but we have common competitors. It is necessary for me to advise you, it is best not to provoke them." The envoy of the Netherlands said to the envoy of Spain.

"We don't need your advice to know how terrible they are," replied the Spanish envoy.

All the envoys are preparing nervously. They will return to their kingdom with extremely complicated feelings, and tell the other nobles and commoners of their country what they have seen and heard at the World Expo.

Since this year, the world’s knowledge and records of the East have increased day by day, and there has also been an oriental craze in the West. They compete to imitate their behavior and culture in the East, and many empires, kingdoms, and principalities have begun to modernize, and there are also monarchies. Hence the disintegration.

After the first World Expo, the modernization of the whole world accelerated, and the second and third World Expos will be held in the eastern capital every ten years.
