"Welcome, my friend!" When Prince Ruprecht saw Dewey, he took the initiative to come forward to give the other party a hug. This was not a false statement. Dewey's performance in the Qing-Japanese War did give the prince great help. For these help, the prince was willing to provide material and reputational rewards. Although he had a basic guess about Dewey's purpose of coming here, the prince was still willing to regard him as a friend.

"It is my lifelong glory to be friends with you. Dear Prince of Bavaria." Facing the true top nobles and the German real power faction, Dewey was not proud at all. He said respectfully.

Because it was the first time we met, Dewey came alone, neither the US Embassy nor Majiphin accompanied Dewey to come here. So the two of them could relax and say something more directly.

"Dear Prince, I came here to collect debts." After a brief greeting, Dewey said with a slightly embarrassed expression. "It's not a matter of money."

"Speak your request." Ruprecht said calmly.

"Spain has also participated in the competition between two armored cruisers, which makes us very uneasy. Even if only one of these two warships enters the combat sequence of the Spanish Navy, it will encourage Spain's arrogance. They will oppress the people of the colonies more and more cruel. Therefore, my country and I hope that you can sell the warships to other countries. No matter who they are," Dewey said.

"Is this passage someone thought for you? Americans who have peeled the skull of Indians, implemented slavery, and obtained a large amount of land through force from the Mexicans, are they embarrassed to say that Spain? In the past, Spain was a villain in the black slave trade, but now Spain is very honest, okay?" Ruprecht kept murmured in his heart. Are you not afraid of being struck by lightning when speaking like this?

"If it's just a personal problem, I'm willing to do my best to help, but you now represent the US government, and you don't have any proof from the US government. This matter is very difficult for me. A little careless handling will have an extremely bad impact. Do you understand what I mean?"

Private relationships are private relationships. Official affairs have to be done publicly. I do owe you favors. If you want money, you will give them 20,000 pounds. It doesn’t matter. But if you want to change the fate of two powerful warships in just one sentence? That’s impossible. Although this thing is not as good as the atomic bomb in later generations, it’s not an exaggeration to say it’s a strategic weight.

"Friend, listen to me, this matter is not something you can get involved in. Even if I agree to your request today and these two warships are in the hands of others, then in the future, once something happens, you will be the best scapegoat! Because you use your personal relationship to change everything. If you succeed, you may not have any benefits, but if you fail, you will definitely take the blame. Think about it, will the person who instructs you to do this take responsibility?" Ruprecht said earnestly.

"Some things cannot be put on the table, and some people will do these things after all." Dewey said depressed after pondering for a moment. Although he is not as good as the prince, there is a reason why Dewey can get to his current status! There is still a sense of political sensitivity. If you want to talk about personal relationships, Roosevelt and others have a relationship with the prince. Why don't he come and have to kick himself out?

"If your country wants to buy it, then I can give in to £30,000! As a reward for your friendship and goodwill to your country. What do you think?" the prince then said. Ruprecht understood very well that Americans would not buy foreign warships, at least in peacetime. Selling is good, but it cannot be sold anyway.

"On behalf of me, I would like to thank you for your kindness, but I can only say sorry for this proposal." Dewey smiled bitterly. "Then I would like to ask, who do you plan to sell the warship?"

"The higher the price will get it." The prince's answer was very straightforward. His side was a businessman, and naturally he gave the highest quotation. "As a friend, I sincerely suggest that you can talk to me about this matter again with the official American staff. I can help you and earn less in exchange for friendship between the United States of America, but there is one thing you must remember that everything we do must leave traces of the official American, and I cannot take the blame."

"Okay, I will convey your opinions to the relevant personnel. But I hope you can try to delay the process of selling warships. After all, as a seller's market, the more buyers you get, the greater your profits you get." Dewey made the final request.

"You convinced me as you wish." His Highness the prince looked easy to speak at this time.

"If I guess correctly, is your country waiting for Japan to enter this bidding? There are still many people in the United States who are blessed with Japan, thinking that such a warship will be better if it falls into the hands of the Japanese than in the hands of the Russians, right?" But the next sentence, Prince Ruprecht was startled Dewey! The prince easily guessed the Americans' thoughts, and Dewey felt that he had no secret in front of this prince.

"This is exactly what we are worried about. I always feel that the Japanese are doing something strange. Although they cover it up well, I can't find any loopholes. If your country insists on letting Japan obtain these two warships, then I must reach an agreement with your country's right representative and have an official seal. If one day there is a problem, I will not bear any accusations, and I will not allow anyone to pour sewage on me in this matter! This is the bottom line!" Prince Ruprecht emphasized.

In a vague way, Ruprecht seemed to have figured out something. The originally isolated things began to be gradually connected by an invisible line. When these things gradually formed a clear chain of clues, the prince discovered the consequences of this series of things. Although the final result is not yet certain, the prince already knew what he was going to do. This result may be terrifying to some countries, but it may not be a good thing for Germany! Of course, the premise is that after this incident broke out, Prince Ruprecht must remove himself!

"I will reflect your opinions to the above. Thank you for your promise just now." Dewey stood up and prepared to say goodbye. Now Prince Ruprecht has put his bottom line out. I want me to help, but I have to leave evidence. Although Dewey doesn't know what Ruprecht is worried about, he believes that what the prince does cannot be aimless!
