Europe is still full of pride at this time. The achievements of the development of Western civilization for hundreds of years have not been destroyed by the cruel war. Unfortunately, no one can foresee the future, after all, there is only one time traveler here.

Europe's attitude towards exotic culture is a kind of tolerance based on a strong position. Europeans were once curious about anything from China. They loved Chinese tea, porcelain and silk embroidery, praised Chinese ancient philosophy and literature and art. They sympathized with the Chinese people who were struggling in the war, but it did not mean that they would respect a living Chinese in their lives.

Asia is no longer the boundary of the civilized world. Europeans can learn about what happened in this area from any international media. In the decades after the fall of the Qing Dynasty, British and French journalists have gone deep into China's hinterland countless times and sent back a large number of press releases and recorded photos. They completely displayed a corrupt empire of poverty, ignorance and backwardness in front of the whole world.

Some Europeans may have a favor for this former central country, but there will definitely be no awe.

Maintaining the Germanic tradition has always been the focus of the Nazi Party's propaganda. Although the Nazi racist propaganda had stopped at this time, the accumulation of more than ten years has had a profound impact on German society.

This is Berlin, the capital of the Third Reich. The famous Nazi Party’s book burning incident occurred in this city. Just five kilometers away from here, there is a bronze sign in front of the library of the Humboldt University School of Law.

The root of the book burning incident is actually the Nazi Party’s hatred and fear of foreign cultures, especially liberalism and left-wing ideas. What the Nazi Party claims to the people is that these foreign cultures are "non-German" and the words that do not meet the Nazi standards pollute the "pure Germanic culture" and are gradually destroying the "values ​​of the decent family" of Germany. Therefore, if a nation falls into a state of fanaticism, it can do even the stupidest things.

Xu Jun is not yet ready to reverse the German worldview. Nationalism is exactly what he needs at this moment, because he must rely on this to unite the hearts of the Germans and strive to deal with the future battle on the Eastern Front.

So it seems a bit unrealistic to make the German people re-accept foreign culture in a short period of time. The Chinese waiters in Defulou all wore German-style white uniforms because this is a German tradition.

Germans can accept Asian style decoration and utensils, but in some aspects they still have to maintain tradition. Defulo has received full support from the German Security Bureau, which of course also includes business consultants.

Colonel Daogen walked straight to the door and opened the door, making a summoning gesture to the corridor. Then a waitress in a German maid dress, holding a white tray in her hand, walked into the private room lightly.

"This is the menu, respectful sir." The waitress performed an impeccable curtsey and then placed the tray on the table.

"Are Manager Zhou waiting outside?" Weirler turned his face and asked.

"Yes, he's in the corridor. Will you tell him to come in now?" Daogen replied.

"Let him come in." Xu Jun lowered his head and looked at the menu, and said loudly.

"You go out first and call you when ordering food." Weirle ordered the waitress.

"Okay, sir." The waitress curtsy again and turned toward the door.

Perhaps because of his smooth career during this period, Boss Zhou looked much younger than Paris. Today he was wearing a gray three-piece suit, with very exquisite workmanship and materials, with straight trousers and shiny leather shoes, as if he was dressed as a successful businessman.

"Hi! Reinhart!" Standing at the door of the box, Boss Zhou raised his right arm and greeted the head of state loudly.

"Come here, Zhou, come to me." Xu Jun put down the menu and Zhuo looked at the boss with interest.

If it weren't for Weirle's incident, he might only occasionally remember this "membersman" who opened a restaurant in Paris.

He is no longer a rookie who first arrived in the country. In the past six months, he has met many Chinese people. Germany has not yet recognized the Nanjing regime and has not signed an alliance treaty with Japan. The government still maintains diplomatic relations with Germany. The Chinese government has an embassy in Berlin.

At this time, the Chinese ambassador to Germany was named Chen Jie. Before entering the diplomatic circle, he had been working in the government's Industry and Commerce Department, and even worked as a manager of a salt bank. This ambassador Chen once studied at the Imperial University of Tokyo, Japan and the University of Berlin, Germany. He was definitely a top student, but he studied economics and law majors. God knows how he suddenly moved into the diplomatic circle. In addition to Japanese, German, and English, he also knows some Latin, and there are no language barriers to being an ambassador to Germany.

One of the things he is more famous in history is that he opposed He Fengshan, the Consul of the State Government in Vienna, and issued a visa to the Jews to Shanghai, which became a stain on his life. Every time the news media praised He Fengshan, he would criticize Ambassador Chen.

But if we look at this issue from the perspective of an ambassador, he did nothing wrong. Although He Fengshan has reasons for doing that, don't forget that Chen Jie is the plenipotentiary ambassador to Germany. He is the person who faces pressure from the Nazi government directly. He needs to consider the issue from the overall diplomatic situation. At that time, the Sino-Japanese War had already broken out in full swing, and the government was still looking forward to obtaining international support. Although Germany had a somewhat ambiguous relationship with Japan, it did not openly highlight Japan's aggression. If Germany's attitude towards China changed due to the behavior of a subordinate diplomat, it would probably be impossible for a "righteous man" to bear the responsibility, and the final stick would still fall on the head of him, the ambassador.

During that time, Germany was concentrating on detaining Jews in Austria, but according to the laws formulated by the Nazis themselves, if they hold a valid outbound visa, the concentration camp could not detain the Jews. The visa became a precious item equivalent to freedom in Austria at that time. Moreover, at that time, the Jews in Austria did not even have a passport needed to leave the country. Although the Vienna consul's unrestricted visa issuance saved many Jews, it can be regarded by the Nazi authorities as a destruction and provocation of German Jewish policies.

Xu Jun met Ambassador Chen Jie in the head of state and also met with members of the embassy, ​​but he did not show too much intimacy, but just a normal talk in accordance with diplomatic etiquette. However, the reaction of the new German head of state was enough to surprise Ambassador Chen.

"I was going to host a banquet for your ambassador after the New Year. I originally wanted to choose a restaurant in the East District of Berlin, but now I think the environment here is good..." Xu Jun stretched out his hand to the teapot, but Boss Zhou grabbed the handle first.

"If I could have a banquet for the ambassador of the State Government here, I would be willing to waive all the fees." Zhou Yun picked up the teapot and respectfully replenished the head of state.

"Mr. Zhou, this is a national diplomatic service, and you will not lose any money you should collect." Xu Jun frowned.

"Yes, everything is listened to you." Boss Zhou quickly nodded and agreed.

It cannot be blamed for his lack of character. The person in front of him has too strong aura and his identity is too noble. The non-standard Zhili official language put a lot of pressure on Zhou Yun. Faced with the German head of state who spoke so neatly in Chinese, Boss Zhou felt that he had no secrets in front of the other party.
