Chapter 395: Brotherhood of the Olympic Games!

Of course, Li Mengyang, an outsider, could not have mastered the family affairs of the Austro-Hungarian Empire very thoroughly. Moreover, the Austro-Hungarian Empire was originally quite far from the New World, and there were a lot of internal affairs within the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In history, the relationship between the Habsburg family and the Americas was the Grand Duke Maximiliano. {Chinese.

But anyway, Li Mengyang has been betting like this, and he has no losses. He can't lose a big deal if he loses the bet. We were not recognized by others before, and we lived a good life, but in the New World, that's all.

If you bet right, then we will make a profit!

Now, the emperors and empresses of the Austro-Hungarian Empire have come. Obviously, the empress dowager is very powerful, but this matter is no longer very important. The key is some trade agreements and many other things. One of them is quite interesting.

"His Majesty Clint Lee I, the American Empire, will hold a World Expo next year. Can you invite Your Majesty and your concubines to Vienna?"

This was an invitation sent by Joseph I. This invitation is normal. Because he visited, the emperor Li Mengyang would have to visit him. There must be a reason for the return visit. It just so happened that the Austro-Hungarian Empire will hold a World Expo next year.

"Your Majesty Joseph I, of course I am willing to go!" Of course Li Mengyang could not refuse. He had to go to this World Expo no matter what the reason was.

By the way, Li Mengyang had learned German with Eleanor before and made up for a while, otherwise the communication would have been really hard.

Originally, when this matter was talked about, everyone laughed and had a great time talking, and the guests and the hosts were having fun... Anyway, it would be fine, but Li Mengyang used to study history after all, but now he saw such a historical figure, so he was curious.

"His Majesty Joseph I, I would like to ask. Why is your country going to hold this World Expo?"

Yes, I am really curious, because just this World Expo is really not that easy to handle. Because the World Expo will have many iconic turning points, such as the first World Expo in 1851 was held in London, England. This World Expo was really unprecedented. A Crystal Palace was built, and there was a team later. It was actually a glass house, but after this World Expo, Britain began to decline from the world factory and the world's industrial overlord.

In Li Mengyang's memory, this World Expo in Vienna, Austria was also quite tragic. It seemed that there were constant disasters during the World Expo, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire did not rise in the future, and the state gradually declined, and it was still on the verge of division.

By the way, the reason why Li Mengyang asked this question was that he wanted to tell Joseph I, why didn’t you build a constitutional monarchy?

Yes, the problem with the Austro-Hungarian Empire is here. The subjects of various small countries think that your Habsburg family is not enough to cook. You can just create a constitutional monarchy. As for how to establish a constitution, then think about the details.

Li Mengyang's question was asked at a dinner party. Of course, this dinner was Chinese food, which was of course of some level. Joseph I's visit has been a week and he is about to return to China, so he saw him off at dinner, but this is not a formal occasion. So, Joseph I's answer was a bit like that.

"World Expo, it's always good to do this thing. Many countries have done it. Our Austro-Hungarian Empire is so powerful that if we don't do it, it's a bit..." It was pretty good at first. Joseph I said it while eating vegetables, but later...

"I heard you are playing something called mahjong?"

"Yes, yes."

"Can you teach me? You can try it when I'm bored."

"That's it, but... let's start with Landlord!"

Queen Elizabeth had a good chat with Huang Rong and Elena, and she was about to leave, so she simply learned something fresh to take it back, so the five women went out to play first.

This is really not a serious dinner, really!

"Oh~" So, Joseph I sighed, "His Majesty Clint Lee, it's a bit bad to call him that. Can I call you brother?"

"..." Li Mengyang could not believe it when he heard this.

You know, the nobles, all the etiquettes are very appropriate. When eating Western food, there are many requirements, and they cannot lower their heads when drinking soup. Li Mengyang has seen it before, so we have Chinese food for this meal, so we don’t have that requirement, so it’s easy to do so.

Now that we have to be brothers, this is a matter... it seems that the royal nobles in Europe can basically be considered a family, and I'm afraid they are quite relaxed when they are together.

"Of course, I'll come first, Brother Joseph!" Li Mengyang agreed of course.

"Okay! Brother Clint!" Joseph I patted Li Mengyang on the shoulder, saying that he had recognized this brother!

This... feels weird.

"You don't know!" Joseph I was about to complain. "Of course, this World Expo was for the sake of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, but I didn't want to do this meeting. Not long ago, I spent a lot of money on these constructions, and even cholera caused and many people died. Alas~ Actually, at the beginning, I just felt that the people of my empire were too many separatists, and these guys were all a group of bastards who had nothing to do when they were full! So, I would do something to distract them and show the strength of my empire, haha...is not bad."

The reason why Joseph I was able to speak like this is actually very simple. That is, he came to this new world these days and saw a lot of new things in this new world. He felt good, really good.

There are two key points in this. One is the system of the two countries. That is, the Austro-Hungarian Empire is still the monarch. Although the American Empire is a constitutional monarchy, the American emperor he saw holds great power!

Your empire is different from my empire, but in fact it is similar. You, Clint Li Yi, are similar to me. Are many things decided in one sentence?

Besides, that is the emperor Li Mengyang, he is so young!

Joseph I is not old now. He is also a young emperor. He was in power at a young age and then did something when he came to power. However, he is indeed a little depressed recently. It is not only a national event, but also a housework. As the emperor... Joseph I is now bald, and the central government supports all sides.

In other words, Joseph I wanted to say something to Li Mengyang, and the two of them exchanged their experience of becoming emperors. So, calling brothers and brothers will bring the relationship closer?

How did you do it? How could you, the Chinese, still rule the white people? And it seems that everyone is convinced by you. Do you have any good experience? ... In this way, Joseph I was not that powerful.

Li Mengyang was not very clear about these reasons, but Joseph I was so enthusiastic that he felt like he was chopping chicken heads and burning yellow paper. Then Li Mengyang was also a bright person.

He only heard him say: "I can help my brother in this matter of cholera. Our empire has recently made new discoveries in medicine. For the infectious disease of cholera, my Imperial Medical University has found a complete set of effective treatments..."

"Really or not?" Joseph didn't believe it!

"Really!"

Of course it is true. Didn’t Li Mengyang give Xie Tiansi the comparison experiment method before? In fact, it is a scientific experimental method. Although this thing is small, it slowly fermentes and grows slowly, and it can do a lot of things that we couldn’t handle before.

For example, cholera is a great enemy of human beings, and there are also empires, but with comparative experiments, we find ways. We experiment one by one. There are many prescriptions in our Chinese medicine for thousands of years. If it is obviously unreliable, we throw away those that are then experiment one by one. And we also introduced Western interpretation science!

The so-called interpretation of the study... Just talking about the American Civil War, it has really made great progress in the interpretation of the study of the study of the study of the study of the study of the study of the study of the study of the study of the study of the study of the study. Really, these doctors are holding knives and saws every day, and they are creaking there... To be honest, Li Mengyang is afraid when he sees them.

"That's great! Brother! Thank you really!"

Li Mengyang explained this. He said that we have used thousands of years of experience in traditional Chinese medicine, and then Western medicine. As the saying goes, the combination of traditional Chinese and Western medicine is good...

"Hahaha..." Joseph I was happy at that time, and this brother was not in vain.

"However, cholera is easy to say, but at this World Expo, brother, you are talking about it to let the people do something, so why not hold the Olympics?" Li Mengyang's thinking was very good.

"Olympics?!" Joseph I was stunned at that time.

"..." When Li Mengyang saw this expression, he wanted to slap himself!

He traveled through time, so when he heard about the World Expo, he was normally associated with the Olympics, because our country did this in the future. And from the perspective of venting energy, the Olympics was obviously better, but he suddenly remembered that there was no Olympics now!

But no... In order to fulfill this matter, Li Mengyang felt that he would let this thing come out first!

"It's the sports meetings held in ancient Greece before, which are very good..." Li Mengyang then began to explain Balabala.

"Oh! So that's it! This is great! I would have done this if I had known it! If I had done this Olympics, I would have been the first one. It would be similar to the British hosts holding the World Expo!"

Regarding the topic of the Olympics, Joseph I was immediately happy because he realized that if he consumed extra energy, it was obviously better to exercise. Li Mengyang also mentioned that if the Olympics were held, these sports would of course be mainly based on what the aristocrats liked.

Why? Why is Li Mengyang so concerned about the nobles? Isn’t he not interested in the nobles?

The reason is too simple, because the Olympics require money, so who pays this money? Of course, it is to look for aristocrats. Moreover, there is another thing, in this era, do you expect ordinary farmers and workers to participate in sports? Do they have this leisure?

Perhaps, farmers and workers are much better than nobles in many events, such as running, and boatman's rowing skills will definitely kill nobles in seconds, but you can't rely on these people to organize the Olympics, and you even tell the old farmers, "We'll hold a sports meeting, and you'll participate?"

The old farmer must have shook his head, and might even laugh at you loudly, "Is it okay if I go home and have a fight with my wife? What kind of shit sports meeting are you going to participate in!"

Sometimes, nobles are useful, so you have to look at it dialectically...

"That's great! I'll prepare when I go back!" You know, the Austro-Hungarian Empire is in imperial power, and the emperor has the same mind as the people, and the emperor has to deal with the nobles in the middle.

So, this farewell dinner will naturally be filled with guests and guests, so it will be over?

Li Mengyang finally said, "Brother Joseph, what do you think of that place in Romania?"

"Romania?" Joseph frowned... (To be continued.)
