321. The role of cultural relics
Hitler did not have much demand for his life. In his opinion, what to eat and what to drink is not important. The most important thing is to realize his crazy idea. This is his greatest pursuit in life. However, although he has no requirements for these, the people under him are thinking of being able to decorate the German Chancellor's Office in a magnificent manner. Now, the German Chancellor's Office is definitely the best place where leaders of all countries live. None of them, only the best.
Yan Xishan has seen money. He is also a prince in China. Although he is not as rich as the Germans, he has really seen money. However, after seeing the decorations of the Prime Minister's Office, he really feels that he is a rich man in the countryside and has no way to compare with the Germans. Look at this magnificent crystal cup. This thing is probably sold for one or two thousand yuan per ocean in China. Of course, even if the travel expenses are sold in Europe, it must be at least five or six hundred oceans per ocean. This kind of thing is specially used for water for guests in the Prime Minister's Office, not the kind of alcohol. In addition to these, the carpets on the ground made in Tong'an have been from Tong'an for several months. It seems that the Germans have made great money. When they came, the commander-in-chief told him not to be ruthless when negotiating prices with the Germans, and he is still a little worried. Now it seems that they have to get all their money.
We are from Shanxi. Shanxi people are most willing to do business with rich people. These ordinary people don’t have much money, and they can’t make much money if they do business with them. However, if they do business with rich people, it will be different. They can make all the money in their hands. This is also a major reason why Shanxi merchants succeed more than merchants in other places.
It’s not that we look down on ordinary people, but we can get greater benefits by doing business for the rich under the same conditions. The Germans are now full of ostentatious things. They have money to move half of the money of Europe to their own homes. Can they have no money? In addition to the money of these Jews, and the Germans have emptied all kinds of reserves of the French. If they don’t do a good job with them at this time, I’m really sorry for them. Although the French government has withdrawn a fiscal reserve, a lot of money has been taken away by the Germans.
Most of the money of a country is in the hands of the people, not in the hands of the country. The country can temporarily withdraw these strategic reserves, but the ones in the hands of the people cannot retreat. The Germans carried out a crazy robbery in France for two months, and the money they received was definitely astronomical. Moreover, the Germans also packed and sealed various French cultural relics, just to use these things to trade with Mao Yuanshan.
According to the report sent by Major General Hans, although the commander-in-chief of China did not know much about antiques and other things, he was a very good antique lover and he liked those things very much. If the Germans could get some real rare treasures, then it would be easy to do business and trade, and it might be possible to exchange them for a large price. You should know that there were not many cultural relics in the hands of the Germans. Although the Germans also participated in the invasion of China, there were not many good things left when they invaded China. The best things were given by the British and French coalition forces in 1860.
After snatching it away, the French found most of them, so this matter would be easier to deal with. Now several museums in Paris, France have been closed by the Germans, so that they are placed here for people to watch. It is impossible to do anything big. If he packs all these things to the Chinese, how many things can he get? In Hitler's opinion, these things are not valuable at all. As long as they can be replaced with Stuka bombers, exchanged them for BF109 fighters, or even Tiger King tanks, they can be the greatest reflection of their value.
If it were an ordinary leader, he might have talked to the Germans about these cultural relics at this time, but Mao Yuanshan was not an ordinary leader. He knew that the Germans had not yet had enough ammunition and food to run out of food at this time. If you show a hint of wanting these cultural relics, the Germans would bargain with you in this regard.
He knew the value of these things. When the Germans were at their end, these things were useless at all. Mao Yuanshan would definitely let them sell them at a bargain price. Now I will tell me that a vase is from the Ming Dynasty of the Song Dynasty. You should keep that thing for now, but I don’t need to wait until the Soviets call it. Not to mention this vase. Even a whole house of vases, I may not necessarily exchange for you. At that time, you have to put together Wuzi’s vase for me before I will give it to you.
"Captain Yan, what we are going to now is the Prime Minister's office. Generally speaking, the Prime Minister will not meet foreigners in his office, mainly because the place is more confidential. If we leak some of his things, it may bring some major disasters to Hitler, so we spend most of our time meeting in the reception room. It seems that these Germans really value Chief Yan very much!" Today is the day when Hitler met Yan Xishan, so Wang Tingzan turned down all activities and accompanied Yan Xishan to meet Hitler. Yan Xishan did not bring his own entourage to translate things, but the country had already found it for him, but he was just doing things on the territory of Germany. Be careful. No local local snake felt a little uncomfortable doing these things, so he brought Ambassador Wang as a staff officer and translator.
He has been in Germany for many years and has a much richer understanding of some things in German society than he has from China. He has negotiating skills. If you don’t understand some local situations, even if you have negotiating skills, it will have no effect. At that time, the Germans will still be led by the nose.
"It seems that you should be a regular here. I see that everyone here is very familiar with you. Originally, I thought we Chinese people had no status abroad. When I was young, my son went abroad. He told me that foreigners didn't like us Chinese people very much, regardless of whether you are rich or not, few people can look down on you." Chief Yan said with emotion.
