Conquering the world from the Kaiser's driver

Luo Er raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked with a smile: "It seems that you only know men, Brother Fritz. Have you met any new girls?"

Lin Shangzhou was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect Luo Er to ask such a question. Seeing him stunned for a moment, Luo Er's eyes flashed with cunning. Noah beside him also looked at him curiously and asked: "Fritts, don't you know other girls?"

She had doubts the last time Lin Yangyu came back, because she felt that Lin Yangyu was hiding something. Now that Lin Shangzhou came, she had a good chance to ask him.

Lin Shangzhou looked at Nuoya and said guiltily, "Of course I know some of them. There are several female employees in the newspaper, but I don't have much contact with them."

"Is that so?"

Noah looked at him suspiciously, but she didn't ask any further questions.

Louis saw what was happening here. He looked at Lin Shangzhou and then at Noah, and thought of Letitia who was far away in Strasbourg. A smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which no one noticed.

"Okay, okay, let's go in and talk. Fritz finally comes back, how can we just stand outside and chat?"

Alexandrine said that she just felt that it was not good to be outside all the time, but she didn't know that her words helped Lin Shangzhou out of trouble.

Then the group entered the Sans Souci Palace. After entering, Louis was attracted by the decoration inside the palace and the works of art hanging on the walls. After getting Alexandrine's permission, he admired the works of art in the palace under the guidance of Elena.

This made Alexandrine very happy, because the troublesome guy left temporarily and she could get along with Lin Shangzhou without any worries.

After arriving at the guest room, Alexandrine began to ask Lin Shangzhou questions with great interest. Lin Shangzhou answered one question after another with a smile. He hadn't seen Alexandrine and the others for a long time, so he decided to spend some time with them.

Of course he skipped over some things, such as the strike and Letitia.

After about half an hour Cecilia called Alexandrine to a halt.

"Sister, I have something to talk to Fritz about alone. If you have anything else to ask, please ask later."

"Well, go talk to him."

Alexandrine nodded.

Then Lin Shangzhou followed Cecilia to her office, and Louis walked in shortly after they left the room.

Since he didn't see Lin Shangzhou and Cecilia, he asked:

"Your Majesty, where are Lady Cecilia and Fritz?"

"Cecilia had something to ask Fritz, so they went to her office."

Alexandrine's mood turned bad again when she saw Louis.

Louis sat on the sofa and looked at the two maids, one big and one small, standing beside Alexandrine. When he saw Noah, an idea popped into his mind: He who wears the crown must bear its weight.

Then he said to Alexandrine: "Your Majesty, if I am not mistaken, there must be something that Fritz has not told you."

"Huh? What do you mean?"

Alexandrine looked at him suspiciously.

"I mean that Fritz has not told you part of his experiences at Strasbourg. I can tell you about them if you wish."

"Yeah, yeah, go ahead and tell me."

Alexandrine nodded with interest, and Lauer and Noah beside her also showed great interest in what Louis was going to say next.

Next, Louis told Alexandrine, or rather everyone in the room, what he knew about Lin Shangzhou's situation in Strasbourg.

He told the German Emperor that Lin Shangzhou had led the workers in a strike that was completely victorious, which shocked the three of them and made them admire Lin Shangzhou, especially Alexandrine.

He told the three that Lin Shangzhou was injured and hospitalized due to retaliation after the strike, which made the three worried about Lin Shangzhou again, but when they thought about how fine Lin Shangzhou looked in front of them just now, the worry disappeared.

Of course, Louis, this kind-hearted man, as Lin Shangzhou's friend and resident on the second floor of the apartment, also told the three girls in the house about Letitia's story.

Louis didn't know that Lin Shangzhou and Letitia were pretending to be a couple, but he knew how worried Letitia was during Lin Shangzhou's hospitalization and how she took care of him for three days. He knew that Lin Shangzhou would pick Letitia up and drop her off to get off work every morning and evening, and he knew that the relationship between the two was very good.

After he finished telling the story about Letitia, Alexandrine was a little unhappy, while the little girl Lore thought, "Ha, I knew it would be like this!", and finally Noah had a gloomy face.

When Louis saw Noah's expression, his heart skipped a beat. He realized that he shouldn't have told anyone about Letitia.

Chapter 70 Surprise

Lin Shangzhou followed Cecilia to her office. Cecilia sat on the chair behind her desk, while Lin Shangzhou sat on the single sofa in the office.

"Fritts, why are you following Senator Bonaparte?"

Cecilia looked at Lin Shangzhou in confusion.

"I know that Strasbourg is a Social Democratic Party territory, but I really didn't expect that you knew Congressman Bonaparte."

"That's a long story."

Lin Shangzhou chuckled and said, "Didn't you ask Wolfgang to find me a job?"

Cecilia nodded.

"Well, I asked him to do this in the letter. I asked him to take good care of you and find you an easy job."

"After I stayed in his apartment for a few days, Wolfgang said he had found me a job at a newspaper. His friend was the editor-in-chief of the newspaper. Because you said in your letter that I could tell stories, he recommended me to his friend, hoping that I could write articles for the newspaper. His friend agreed, and I went to work at the newspaper."

"and then?"

Cecilia looked at him curiously.

"Then I worked in the newspaper for a few days and published my novel, which is the one I asked my uncle to bring to you. In mid-March, my colleagues asked me to do them a favor and help them investigate the situation of workers in a factory. I agreed, and then I went to work in the factory and investigate the treatment of the workers."

"After working for a week, I realized that the workers were being exploited by the boss, so I organized and led a strike with several other workers on March 3, and the strike was a complete victory."

Cecilia looked at him in surprise. Lin Shangzhou really gave her another surprise by leading the workers to strike...and this also made her a little wary. She didn't hate syndicalists, but she didn't want Lin Shangzhou to become a syndicalist either.

"And then? How did you meet Senator Bonaparte?"

Cecilia demanded.

"Then I was retaliated by the manager of that factory. When I went to work in the morning, he knocked me out while I wasn't paying attention. When I woke up again, I had been sent to the hospital. Louis was next to me."

Lin Shangzhou's words made Cecilia look confused. How come the person next to her after she woke up in the hospital was Louis? What was going on?

But besides being confused, she was more concerned about another thing: the factory manager who attacked Lin Shangzhou.

Cecilia frowned and asked:

"What happened to the factory manager?"

"He was put in prison a long time ago. He was sentenced to 12 years and paid me marks in compensation."

Cecilia's brows relaxed when she heard Lin Shangzhou say that the administrator had been put in prison.

"That's good. If he doesn't get the punishment he deserves, I'll send someone to deal with him."

Cecilia said some scary words with an expressionless face, but it made Lin Shangzhou feel warm in his heart. After all, Cecilia sent someone to deal with the factory manager for him.

"And then? Why was Louis the person next to you when you woke up?"

Lin Shangzhou said slowly:

"Don't worry, I'll tell you slowly."

"When I led the workers to strike, reporters from our newspaper also went to the strike site. I took the initiative to ask them to interview me so that they could get first-hand information about the strike. Later, I also asked them to accompany me in the negotiations with the factory owners. As a result, our newspapers sold very well the day after the strike. The deputy editor-in-chief of the newspaper wrote a letter to the editor-in-chief in Berlin and sent him a copy of the newspaper. After receiving the letter and the newspaper, the editor-in-chief dealt with matters in Berlin and returned to Strasbourg."

Cecilia pondered over Lin Shangzhou's words, and as she thought about it, she realized something: Louis is the editor-in-chief of the newspaper?

"So, Congressman Bonaparte is the editor-in-chief of the newspaper? A friend of Wolfgang?!"

Cecilia said in surprise, and Lin Shangzhou nodded.

"Well, and not only that, Louis is also the tenant of Wolfgang's second-floor apartment, which is why I saw him when I woke up in the hospital. He was the one who took me to the hospital."

He deleted some information in this sentence, and omitted the fact that Letitia called Louis out. Lin Shangzhou did not reveal any information about Letitia, for fear that Noah would know about Letitia and put him in trouble.

But unfortunately, he was very good at using the abacus, but someone didn't allow him to use it anymore. He snatched the abacus from his hand and threw it on the ground.

"what…"

Cecilia was stunned. She didn't expect it to be like this. She rarely encountered things that shocked her. Today was one of them. There was another reason why she was stunned. That was that Wolfgang actually knew Louis. She said to herself:

"Wolfgang didn't tell me such an important thing..."

Hearing her mumbling, Lin Shangzhou was worried that Cecilia would blame Wolfgang, so he said, "Don't think that Wolfgang didn't tell you. Wolfgang may not know that Louis is a member of parliament, and Louis may not know what Wolfgang does for a living."

After saying this, Lin Shangzhou was actually unsure, because Louis knew Catherine, and Catherine was an alcoholic, so who knew if she was there? Once when he was drunk, he happened to run into Louis, and in a daze he told Louis that he was a member of the Storm Commandos.

"Yeah... you're right."

Cecilia nodded thoughtfully. It was indeed possible. It couldn't be entirely attributed to Wolfgang's refusal to tell her. She also remembered that Wolfgang was a man of few words and he might not have had much contact with Louis.

I wonder what Cecilia would think if she knew that Wolfgang's bar had some syndicalist regulars. I also wonder what Liszt and Walter would think if they knew that the owner of the bar they often went to was a member of the Storm Troopers and his direct superior was someone close to the German Emperor.

I guess their brains will crash for a while at the same time.

As for Catherine, the drunkard, they had become accustomed to not taking her drunken words seriously.

Cecilia looked at Lin Shangzhou and hesitated for a moment before saying:

"So that's how you got to know Senator Bonaparte?"

"Ah."

Lin Shangzhou nodded.

"Oh~ This explains why you went back to Berlin with him. If you took a normal train back, you would definitely be targeted by Klein's people. But if it was Senator Bonaparte's special train, it would not be certain."

Cecilia thought she understood everything that was going on, but what she didn't know was that there were still things she didn't understand.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Lin Shangzhou decided to confess to Cecilia that he had joined the SPD. He said to Cecilia, "Cecilia, in fact, I followed Louis back to Berlin after joining the SPD."

"what?!"

Cecilia was stunned. If what happened just now was surprising enough for her, then Lin Shangzhou's words were a surprise within a surprise. It was something she would never have thought of no matter how hard she tried.

After spending more than two months in Strasbourg, he became a member of the Socialist People's Party when he came back.

(This is such a fucking surprise….)

Cecilia thought in her heart.

.

Chapter 71 Bet

“Why did you join the Socialist People’s Party?”

After a brief moment of astonishment, Cecilia asked Lin Shangzhou in confusion. She didn't understand why Lin Shangzhou wanted to join the Social Democratic Party. Doing so meant that he wanted to participate in politics. Why did he want to participate in politics?

"Well..."

"The direct reason at that time was that Louis said that if I joined the SPD, he would be willing to take me back to Berlin on his special train. I wanted to be able to return to Berlin without hindrance, so I simply agreed."

After hearing Lin Shangzhou's answer, Cecilia thought for a few seconds and then burst into laughter. Her inexplicable laughter made Lin Shangzhou very puzzled.

"Cecilia, what are you laughing at?"

Cecilia suppressed her smile and said to Lin Shangzhou, "Although I am not familiar with Senator Bonaparte, I have heard from Klein that Senator Bonaparte has his own special train."

"what?"

Lin Shangzhou was stunned. That special train belonged to Louis?

"So he tricked me?"

"Ah."

Cecilia nodded, trying hard not to laugh again.

Lin Shangzhou was really speechless now, but no matter how speechless he was, he had already joined the party, so he couldn't quit, right?

"Alas... Louis really wants to pull me into the Social Democratic Party..."

Cecilia was also very curious about Louis's behavior, so she asked, "Felitz, why does Senator Bonaparte want you to join the Socialist People's Party so much?"

"He said the SPD was too weak and that a small group of radicals, including General Vorbeck, were not enough to make the SPD strong. So the party needed more radicals. People like me were exactly what they lacked. After learning about me, he rushed back to Strasbourg from Berlin. In addition to meeting me, he also invited me to join the SPD."

Lin Shangzhou explained to her, however, Cecilia's focus was no longer on his joining the Socialist People's Party, but on another name: Volbeck.

She was very confused, why did Vorbeck join the Socialist People's Party?

Cecilia hesitated for a moment and then asked:
