Conquering the world from the Kaiser's driver

Author: Drizzle Niu Mao

Summary:

Lin Shangzhou came to Germany in 1930 in the KX world with just a blink of an eye. What he didn't expect was that he became the driver of the German Emperor because of family reasons... But this German Emperor was different from the German Emperor in his memory. He changed from an old man to a blonde loli. Although this KX world was a little different from the KX world in his memory, Lin Shangzhou felt very relaxed in the prosperous German Empire in 1930, because he knew what would happen in the future, and he...

"Ah... sneeze!"

Lin Shangzhou sneezed suddenly, rubbed his itchy nose with his left hand and prepared to slide the screen of his mobile phone with his right hand, but he found that the touch from his right hand was not glass but rough paper.

It was at this moment that he saw that everything in front of him had undergone a drastic change. The fluorescent tube above his head that was supposed to emit white light turned into an electric bulb emitting orange-yellow light. The spicy soup and fried dough sticks on the table in front of him turned into a cup of milk and a plate of bread. Next to the bread were two sausages as thick as volcanic stone sausages. The mobile phone in his right hand turned into a folded newspaper that exuded a strong smell of ink.

"Shang Zhou, please help me check if the American's novel has been published in the newspaper."

Hearing a man's voice coming from the front, Lin Shangzhou looked forward and saw a middle-aged man sitting on a chair opposite him, looking at him with a slightly sad look.

Lin Shangzhou looked at the man, and his thoughts at this moment could be described in one word: fuck.

Judging from the change in the scene before his eyes to the man in front of him, Lin Shangzhou believed that he had traveled through time. And judging from the way the man addressed him, the form of the time travel was soul travel, and the original soul of this body was also called "Lin Shangzhou."

Seeing that Lin Shangzhou had not answered his question, the man asked doubtfully:

"Shang Zhou? Why are you staring at me? What's that on my face?"

"Forehead…."

Lin Shangzhou didn't know what to say. The man in front of him was related to his "previous life". Judging from his face, he might be his father or an elder such as an uncle. Since he had no memory of his previous life, he didn't know what he was specifically like. This was also the most uncomfortable thing for him now: he had no memory of his previous life.

But now is not the time to dwell on this issue. He must first deal with the middle-aged man in front of him. Lin Shangzhou conducted a brief analysis based on the few clues he had, and finally concluded that this man might be the father of his predecessor, and he should call him "Dad."

But he wasn't completely sure, so with the idea of ​​giving it a try, Lin Shangzhou whispered, "Dad?"

"dad?"

The man was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"I've told you several times, I'm your uncle, not your dad. Even if you want to call me dad, I don't like you to call me that. I'm your uncle, Lin Yangyu, and I don't want a little bastard like you as my son. Don't call me dad anymore, hahahaha."

"Ah."

Lin Shangzhou nodded and felt relieved.

"So where is my dad now?"

"Your father......"

Hearing Lin Shangzhou mention his father, Lin Yangyu showed a trace of sadness on his face. Seeing his uncle like this, Lin Shangzhou's heart skipped a beat and he felt that something bad had happened. Why did he ask this? In this situation, he should have asked questions or waited for his uncle to tell him about himself.

"Ah... when your work is stable, take some time off and I'll take you back to pay respects to your parents. So many years have passed, it's time for you to return home."

Lin Yangyu sighed and said with a sad expression. After listening to his uncle's words, Lin Shangzhou nodded silently. He felt sad and confused at the same time.

Return to China? Isn't this China?

"Hey, hey, come on, come on, why are you talking about those sad things? Hurry up and show me if there's a copy of that novel called...what...H.P. or L.P. Floraford in the newspaper. I've been waiting to read it."

Lin Yangyu waved his hand to sweep away the sad atmosphere and spoke to his nephew with some resentment.

"It's H.P. Lovecraft." Lin Shangzhou reminded.

"Oh, yes, that's the guy."

(Domestic newspapers probably won’t publish Ai Shouyi’s works, right? By the way, have Ai Shouyi’s works ever been published in newspapers?)

Lin Shangzhou nodded doubtfully and held the newspaper in front of him. He sniffed the ink and searched for the name of Ai Shouyi on it. However, after seeing the words on the newspaper clearly, he was stunned. Just as he had just thought, he was indeed not in China, because the newspaper was written in German.

You are in Germany now?!

What’s even more amazing is that I can actually understand German!

I rely on? !

Lin Shangzhou was very confused. Apart from Chinese, he could speak English and a little Japanese (which he learned from watching the two-dimensional world). He knew basically no other languages. He only knew a few words in certain languages, such as the Russian word Davarishi (comrade) and the Spanish word Gracias (thank you). He learned this Spanish by playing games.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Lin Shangzhou gave up thinking about this problem. He just regarded it as a golden finger given by the time traveler. This was the best explanation.

Lin Shangzhou raised his eyebrows and glanced at his uncle, who was drinking milk. After thinking about it, he gave up the idea of ​​asking his uncle whether he was in Germany. After all, Lin Yangyu said, "so many years have passed", it would seem strange for him to ask this question again, and since it was all in German, he was most likely in Germany.

Turning his head to take a look at the environment at home, Lin Shangzhou had a general idea of ​​the time he was in now. There was an old-fashioned light bulb above his head, a phonograph on the cabinet by the wall, and an old-fashioned radio that Lin Shangzhou had seen in Tom and Jerry placed against the other wall. Next to the radio was a red sofa of the same style as in Tom and Jerry, and there was also a lamp above the radio.

He didn’t expect the house to be quite big. This was the first thought that popped into his mind. The second thought was that it should be the 1920s or 1930s.

(These are not good times for Germany...)

He thought worriedly that the situation was fine from the 33s to 33, but it would not be so good after , after all, the Nazis with mustaches took control of the German government.

While thinking, Lin Shangzhou looked for today's date in the newspaper, and he soon found it: January 1930, 1.

(Fortunately, the mustache has not yet taken control of Germany)

While feeling relieved, he turned his gaze elsewhere and began looking for Ai Shouyi's name. However, after searching for a while, he did not find Ai Shouyi's name. Instead, he found words that shocked him even more.

"Members of the Imperial Party, the Conservative Party, and the Fatherland Party jointly submitted a motion to the parliament to impeach Mr. Albert, the Chancellor of the Center Party, but it was not approved by His Majesty the Emperor. Members of the three parties protested against this, but His Majesty the Emperor did not come out to explain to them why the motion was not approved."

"Beware of the red threat! The infiltration of the French Commune and the British Alliance may be ongoing at any time. We must unite to resist the infiltration of this evil syndicalist country. Those who accurately report spies and help the police catch them will receive a reward of 50,000 marks and a gold medal. Those who provide spy information will receive a reward of 20,000 marks and a silver medal once confirmed."

"The United States of America on the other side of the ocean is still in the midst of an economic crisis today, but our German Empire is still thriving, our economy is booming, our lives will become better and better, and a better life is tomorrow!"

..............................

Wait wait wait, what the fuck is this?

Lin Shangzhou's mind was in a mess. It was 1930 now! How could there be a German Empire after Germany lost World War I and II? Shouldn't it be the Weimar Republic? And there were three parties, the Imperial Party, the Conservative Party, and the Fatherland Party. What kind of political parties were these? Did Germany have these political parties? What kind of weird countries were the French Commune and the British Union?

Only the economic depression in the United States gave him a little comfort, which is in line with historical facts.

and many more……

What did Lin Shangzhou realize? The German Empire in 1930? The French Commune? The British Union? These two syndicalist countries...ah...he understood.

Chapter 2 The Kaiser's Driver

(Isn’t this KR’s world?)

Lin Shangzhou screamed in his heart: WC! How did I cross over to KR's world?

KR, full name: Kaiserreich, is a very famous mod for Hearts of Iron 4, a strategy game set in World War II. Its world view is the world after Germany's victory in World War I.

As a war criminal of Paradox, Lin Shangzhou knew very well what kind of world KR's world was like. Since he knew that he was in KR's world, he had nothing to worry about. The German Empire in 1930 was "thriving" just as described in the newspapers. The lives of Germans were much better than those in other places in the world and in Germany in OTL...

Until the occurrence of Black Monday in February 1936, but this was not something Lin Shangzhou had to consider now. After he recovered emotionally, he was completely relieved. Who would refuse to live in such a powerful country?

Judging from the furniture in his home, Lin Shangzhou is sure that his family belongs to the German middle class. He feels that there is nothing to worry about now. The economic crisis will come in 36 years, and he will definitely do something to prevent his family from suffering heavy losses in the economic crisis. However, there are still six years to prepare, which is plenty of time.

"Have you published that person's novel?"

Seeing that Lin Shangzhou was slow to answer his question, Lin Yangyu asked.

"No."

Lin Shangzhou shook his head and handed the newspaper to Lin Yangyu. Lin Yangyu took the newspaper, read the contents carefully, and then put it on the table in disappointment.

"Hurry up and eat. Today is your first day at work. You must eat snacks to make a good impression on the Emperor."

He looked at Lin Shangzhou with a look of satisfaction, as if his child had grown up. This gave Lin Shangzhou a strange feeling, as no one had ever looked at him in this way before.

Lin Shangzhou nodded and prepared to pick up the milk at hand. The moment he picked up the milk, he realized something was wrong, "Give a good impression to the Emperor"?

His Majesty?

There is only one Kaiser in Germany...

So I work for the Kaiser?

Lin Shangzhou suppressed his shock and took a sip of milk. Judging from his uncle's words, he was someone close to the German Emperor, otherwise he would not have said "give a good impression to His Majesty the Emperor".

But working for the Kaiser, and being a Chinese?

He glanced at his uncle. Although the Germans in the KR world did not have extreme nationalists and racists like those in the OTL world, there was still widespread discrimination against Europeans, Americans and Chinese in this era, not to mention the nobles who were superior to others.

In order to get more information, Lin Shangzhou put down the cup and pretended to be curious and asked his uncle: "Uncle, what kind of person is His Majesty the German Emperor?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry too much. Your Majesty is a very good person. If it weren't for her, I wouldn't continue to be her driver."

Lin Yangyu said, but his words not only failed to reassure Lin Shangzhou, but made him even more worried.

(The Kaiser’s driver… I don’t know if I can drive a car from this era…)

Lin Shangzhou thought bitterly that he could drive, but who knew whether the driving feel of a car from nearly a hundred years ago would be the same as that of a modern car. If he couldn't drive well, he would be doomed.

"Okay, okay, hurry up and finish your breakfast. You'll have to leave soon."

At Lin Yangyu's urging, Lin Shangzhou finished his breakfast which was better than nothing.

After breakfast, Lin Yangyu brought Lin Shangzhou to the garage. They were both wearing thick clothes, as the weather in Europe in January was not very friendly.

Standing next to the black car, Lin Shangzhou felt very nervous. Could he drive it well?

But now that things have come to this, he can only bite the bullet. He can't say to Lin Yangyu: "I'm sorry, uncle, I'm not your nephew. Your nephew is dead. I am from another world."

This is just looking for trouble... although this may be better than offending the German Emperor.

"Here, here's the key. Don't lose it."

Lin Yangyu handed the car keys to Lin Shangzhou solemnly. Lin Shangzhou nodded vigorously. Who the hell would lose such an important thing?

Lin Shangzhou opened the car door with the key and was about to get in when Lin Yangyu called him. He turned around and saw his uncle took out a small black notebook from his arms and handed it to him.

"Bring my work notes. You'll need them."

"Ah."

Looking at Lin Yangyu's caring eyes, Lin Shangzhou felt a warmth in his heart. Because of family reasons, he had rarely been looked at in such a way in his twenty years of life.

Lin Shangzhou nodded, took the notebook in his hand, put it in the inside pocket of his shirt, and then sat in the driver's seat of the car.

Before leaving, Lin Shangzhou stuck his head out of the window. When Lin Yangyu saw his nephew sticking his head out, he walked over and asked, "Anything else?"

"Um... Uncle, I seem to have forgotten where to go..."

Lin Shangzhou scratched his head and chuckled. Lin Yangyu took a deep breath and looked at him in silence. He seemed a little angry, but in the end he didn't get angry with Lin Shangzhou.

Next, Lin Yangyu spent a few minutes reviewing with Lin Shangzhou how to get to Wuyou Palace. After figuring out his destination, Lin Shangzhou made an "ok" gesture to his uncle.

After confirming again and again that his nephew knew how to get to Wuyou Palace, Lin Yangyu walked forward and opened the garage door.

Lin Shangzhou sat in the driver's seat, looking at everything in front of him in a daze.

(Shouldn't it be much different from a modern car?)

Thinking this, he used the key to start the car, and then something very magical happened. Lin Shangzhou found that he seemed to know what to do, and drove out of the garage and onto the road outside very easily.

Lin Yangyu walked to the car window and said to Lin Shangzhou:

"Shang Zhou, let me tell you again, your German name is: Fritz Hipper. I know you don't like this name, but you have to remember that it's different in front of His Majesty the Emperor than in front of me. Also, my name is Vollandon Hipper."

"Fritz Hipper..."

Lin Shangzhou silently recited his other name. His predecessor might have disliked his German name because he didn't like foreigners. He didn't care much about it. How could he live in Germany without a German name?

But this name made him feel weird. The name Fritz was fine, but the last name Hipper reminded him of a blond tsundere who was a heavy cruiser but made of steel.

Although he knew that the three words "Hippel" were indeed a surname in Germany, his preconceived notions made him feel strange.

"Yeah, I remember."

He nodded. His attitude made Lin Yangyu feel like a "sensible child". You know, before, "Lin Shangzhou" was unwilling to use this name no matter what, but today he accepted it.
