Chapter 824 The truth is not good for you
Zhou Weiguo and Xiao Ya raised their heads at the same time and looked at Smith.
"What problem are you talking about?" Zhou Weiguo looked up and asked.
"Will Berlin follow our plan? What if we send his navy out and increase his military presence in Africa?"
There is no need to worry about this problem, but since he can make a fortune in Fog City, why not do it?
"Mr. Smith, Berlin is not a monolithic nation. There are also people who love money. Have you forgotten that Goering is a greedy person? Otherwise, he couldn't have become so fat. Moreover, he is Adolf's confidant. As long as the money is in place, this matter will not be difficult. Besides, my Shancheng has some friendship with Berlin. It won't be difficult if we work together to convince him."
Why would Goering disagree with this free money? Besides, he could also gain certain benefits from it.
Kill two birds with one stone.
It can be said that the money you spent can be got back from Goering.
Xiao Ya glanced sideways at her own Awen, then picked up her teacup and nodded silently in agreement. Smith wrote down the clue and nodded. "Indeed, now we have a direction."
Since Winston wanted to deal with this matter, he naturally did it quickly. He even convened several cabinet members for an emergency meeting that night.
"I think you all understand the situation. If this matter is not handled properly, the years of accumulation and status of our empire will be handed over to others. At that time, we will all become sinners of this empire."
The status of the empire cannot be maintained in the current situation forever. Perhaps one day in the future, the empire will fall from the altar, but this will never happen in the hands of one of us.
"We can start with Berlin." Seeing that no one spoke, Smith handed over the documents. "The only country capable of doing this right now is Berlin."
Several people nodded. Indeed, Berlin was the only one capable of handling this matter, but the problem was, how could Berlin possibly agree to this?
"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, and everyone, we might be able to make a breakthrough with Goering. He loves money, and in the last operation, his air force was suppressed by the army, so he holds a grudge. If we can offer a high enough price, we can win him over."
Winston looked at the Chancellor. "Fifty millions of pounds sterling must be immediately allocated for this purpose, and this matter."
He looked at the people present, and then his gaze fell on Smith; "Since this plan was proposed by you, then you should take charge of it yourself."
"Okay, I'll take care of this."
It was a very short meeting, but it determined the future direction of the empire and then returned home.
Smith looked at Zhou Weiguo, who was sitting in the study drinking tea, and said, "You don't seem surprised at all. Did you already know that the Empire would let me handle this matter?"
"You are the one who should do what you proposed, and this is done in secret. If anyone were to expose it, whoever impeached Berlin would be held responsible. They are not fools, so who would argue with you about this matter?"
"Tell me." Zhou Weiguo put down his teacup. "How much money did Winston allocate to you?"
"Fifty million pounds, but I don't know about this matter..."
Now that they had come this far, Zhou Weiguo had nothing to hide and smiled. "Fifty million pounds, two plus one equals five, split into three parts: one for me, one for you, and one for Goering. Perfect."
what……
Smith was a little confused, and it took him a while to react; "You...you are..."
"I'm the Lieutenant General of the Mountain City, but I'm also the Major General of the Army in Berlin. I think you should understand what I'm saying now."
Someone plotted against me.
Smith took a deep breath and sighed. "I seem to be on a pirate ship, and I can't get off."
"Not yet. If you don't get more than ten million pounds, then you won't get on the ship, but..."
What a joke! If he didn't want the 10 million pounds, would he be clean? No. He was already not clean from the moment he brought up this matter at the meeting.
"Get ready, Baba. We're going to Berlin." Smith glanced at Zhou Weiguo and saw him get up and take out books from the bookshelf. He frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
"It's time to return the things you stole back then. Besides, you can't understand them, so there's no point in keeping them. Why don't you do me a favor and return these books to my city?"
Smith squeezed his hands and finally nodded without saying anything. "Okay, I'll give it to you."
In Berlin, Zhou Weiguo arrived by transport plane that flew from the Shancheng Special Embassy through Berlin to Northern Soviet Union, and then returned to Shancheng to report the news.
At the airport, an inspection was also carried out to avoid being seen.
On the same night after entering the Berlin Embassy, Zhou Weiguo took Smith into his own manor.
On the way, Smith heard Zhou Weiguo say that he had a manor in Berlin, but at that time, he thought it was just a villa.
But when he really got here, he found that he was wrong. This was indeed a manor.
The estate covers a large area and even has a separate winery. The estate also has fertile fields and other things.
Even if he could withdraw from this manor, the surrounding land would probably belong to this manor, that is, to Zhou Weiguo.
He entered the room and never left, but Zhou Weiguo went out for a while.
At dusk, Zhou Weiguo brought Xiao Ya back.
"Göring and Guderian will be here tonight. I hope we can finalize this matter tonight. In the next few days, you can wander around here with peace of mind or rest in my manor."
It's impossible to get things done on the first day and go back the next day. If that happens, Winston will have to give Smith a hard time.
"There's nothing to discuss." Smith took a breath. "Everything that needs to be said, even the plan, has already been made. There's no need to discuss it. We just need to confirm it. The rest is unimportant."
"Then what do you think is important?" Zhou Weiguo asked with interest.
Smith hummed and looked around the manor, puzzled. "Berlin isn't exactly a generous place, but they gave you such a large manor. I really don't understand what you did to deserve such a large manor."
this……
Zhou Weiguo took a sip of the freshly brewed tea beside him and said with a smile, "I think it's better for you not to know the truth."
