When Bateman saw the eyes of others, he knew that this intention could have been successfully passed. He asked with the flow: "Your Excellency, you may be summoning us, I'm afraid that this is not just a matter of this?"

William II nodded with satisfaction. Bateman was the prime minister he was very satisfied with. He understood what he meant best. He just opened his head and understood. He said calmly: "Yes, the Ministry of Transport, the Ministry of Water Resources, and other departments. You can count it. In the next one or two years, as long as the bulk construction within our country can save time and cost, it doesn't matter if it's all right to leave it to the Northwest people. And the Ministry of Industry, we need to count the conflict between labor and soldiers. As long as the war begins, there will inevitably be problems. It is better to hire some Northwest workers in advance. According to Mummer's report, the Northwest workers are of good strength!"

Bateman nodded. William II's idea actually coincided with him. When he saw the report before, his first idea was that within the scope permitted by the rules, a large number of Northwest workers were hired, construction workers were needed, and factory workers were also needed. The Northwest was not the old and backward empire before. In just a few years, the emergence of a large number of industrial products proved that the Northwest had a group of technical workers in industry, especially those military orders, strong production capacity, and even met one-third of the German reserve requirements.

Other important officials were also lit up. Chinese workers with high quality and low price, but they are good products that replace the current shortage of workers. Some of the registered and even the construction plans were released, especially the Kiel Canal and a large number of railway projects. They are simply icing on the cake.

Finally, it was counted that there were 12 railways here in Bateman, with a total of more than 6,800 kilometers. Most of them were double-track or even third-line construction, and a small number were relatively difficult construction. The total investment may require 700 million marks, or 120 million US dollars. After completion, Germany's domestic transportation capacity and military mobilization capacity will reach about three times that of now.

This is a huge improvement. Such a huge plan made the important officials at the scene a little disturbed. The Minister of Finance was about to speak, but Bateman stopped him. He said calmly: "This fund can be discussed in advance from the Northwest. Germany can repay it with orders in a few years!"

Bateman's words of turning stones into gold suddenly made all the problems, and for a moment, it was no longer a problem. Yang Yuanzhao and Mumo and others reached a preliminary intention of Qingdao, and they would order a large number of shipyard machinery, including docks and large machinery, including 400 million US dollars, machinery and equipment. Unlike raw materials, the cost is clear, the profit margin is not high, and the profit margin of the machine discount itself is quite high. Even if the money is gross profit, it can still obtain 40% of the profit. With the 400 million US dollars driving the industrial chain, the benefits caused are definitely several times that. The most important thing is that these industrial finished products do not occupy Germany's strategic resources.

Although docks and machines will occupy part of the steel, they will not affect Germany's preparation process. What Germany lacks is weapons, battleships, and not docks. In the arms race for several years, the production capacity of docks has been oversupplied. With German workers and ports, they cannot support it. Continue to expand docks in a crazy way, this part of the production capacity must be found. What was prepared before was to switch to other components. Now there is no need to adjust, and directly produce docks in exchange for advances and construction of important large-scale projects in Germany. This can be said to be absolutely making money. Even the Northwest will agree happily, and the same is to buy equipment. As long as Germany makes certain concessions, the Northwest will obtain some equipment that was unlikely to obtain, it should be able to exchange for small support in this regard.

Many important officials were shocked by Bateman's idea. This was simply a genius idea. It didn't cost a penny or a part, but it easily obtained human support. As long as necessary logistical support is guaranteed, Germany may have a huge change in one or two years. At that time, one German division can play a role of one and a half, or even two divisions. Once the war begins, the East-West Line formed naturally can be mobilized through the internally open and powerful railway network.

The whole day of closed-door meeting only took about 2 hours to decide the strategy. Next, the main thing was to confirm the project. Even because of the possibility of obtaining the Northwest mat, some projects that were rejected were taken out because they had invested too much before. In the end, the total number of projects reached 2.35 billion marks, almost reaching 500 million US dollars. Basically, the number of contracts to Yang Yuanzhao was similar, but there was a little more.

William II looked at the memorandum that was finally recorded and felt happy. A huge construction plan that could enhance the power of the entire German Empire was about to be born here. He did not think that this plan would not be successful. The Northwest had sufficient productivity and efficiency and enough money. By then, Germany would have spent less than half or even lower prices to obtain these crucial projects, and there was no better creativity than this. The telegram was sent out again, just as it was the last time it entered the port and was about to pass the Suez Canal. This time, not only did William II's signature, but also the signature, and the ministers of various government departments, which was basically equivalent to official documents.

In the turbulent Red Sea, five warships slowly entered the port. Because of the early reporting, they did not have to wait for passage, but needed to replenish some necessary supplies before entering the Suez Canal, adding coal and water. After passing through the Suez Canal, they would go directly to the Mediterranean Sea, and perhaps a short stop at the southern port of Italy, and then cross the Strait of Gibraltar and head directly to Germany.

After entering the port, Mummer immediately found the German intelligence station stationed near the Suez Canal and received a secret telegram. Unfortunately, William II agreed to his initiative. After his initiative, there were many things that added fuel to the fire, with a total investment of 2.3 billion marks, which was almost all the investment of the government in recent years. Obviously, it was the rare opportunity for the Northwest to be regarded as a rare opportunity.

In this way, will the Northwest accept it? How much does it cost to build the Baghdad Railway? Most of the raw materials are produced in the northwest. I think it has some profits. As for the port of Basra, it is only built in the northwest by 30 square kilometers around it. Now, it is all domestic projects in Germany. Not to mention the Kiel Canal, what are the railways? Mumo smiled bitterly, and with Spe, he found Yang Yuanzhao and handed him the telegram plan. Before he could tell Yang Yuanzhao about the Kiel Canal, he had no time to tell Yang Yuanzhao that there are so many more now, so let Yang Yuanzhao see it himself.

Yang Yuanzhao is immersed in his own world. After the ocean sailing of this era, after the initial curiosity, he was more bored. After Malacca, Yang Yuanzhao would watch the scenery on the deck and change his mind for a small part of his time. The remaining time was placed on the all-in-one machine. There was a large amount of raw materials stored in the all-in-one machine, which could not be done in other work on the ship, but the research of materials and sample production could continue. With all concentration, he could make 30,000 to 40,000 pieces of materials a day. He also added and produced materials around a certain frequency according to the research results of Northwest Materials Science.

There are 30,000 pieces a day. After coming from Malacca, it takes about 10 days to 300,000 pieces. Unfortunately, materials science is destined to be boring and lucky. The super armored steel he made before seems to have almost wiped out his good luck. Among the more than 300,000 pieces of materials, only 3 parts of the acceptable materials were harvested, and the best of them reached about 70% of the armored steel. If it was not for other uses, it would be a waste. The remaining two were also breakthroughs in other aspects, such as high temperature resistance, high humidity resistance, etc.

When Mu Mo came over, Yang Yuanzhao had just completed the 30,860th piece of material. He felt extremely frustrated when he found nothing. He was about to come out to the deck to relax when he met Mu Mo who bumped into him.

Mumo took out a telegram and briefly introduced the German Emperor's request. Yang Yuanzhao was shocked. He did not expect that Mumo would have done so many things. He knew that the Kiel Canal was one of the important canals and water transportation channels in Germany. Other railway plans were not clear. I am afraid that it was his butterfly flapped wings. It should not be built during the First World War. It was obvious that William II saw his generousness and the performance of the Northwest in the Middle East. He wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to solve the two major projects of his country's railway and Kiel Canal.

Yang Yuanzhao knew very well that Germany was absolutely weak in the war. Whether it was Austro-Hungarian, Turkey, or fence-bearing Italy, they not only did not help Germany, but instead dragged it back to varying degrees. Germany was equivalent to taking on Britain and France in naval battles and resisting Britain, France and Russia in land battles. If the United States, which joined later, would almost be its own strength to fight against the entire capitalist world.

In this case, no matter how powerful or more prepared, it is no match for the first battle. What's more, the outbreak of the first battle was very sudden. Germany almost rushed into the battle and was dragged into the war by Austro-Hungary. In other words, in a sense, it should not be an exaggeration to strengthen Germany, which will make the first battle more intense, weaken the capitalist countries from a larger scale, and create opportunities for China to rise.

It took only 5 minutes before Yang Yuanzhao figured it out and then made a decision. It would be a 500 million US dollars advance. It would be repaid in a year or two, not without money. With this bonus, Germany would save a lot of labor, and the potential and mobilization ability of future wars will be strengthened. Why not do this? The most important thing is that Germany is obviously seeking others at present. In this case, if you don’t get some benefits, you will be sorry for the identity of the time traveler.
