The Duke of Newcastle was stunned at the time. He never expected that Xiao Letian would use such a reason to refute him, which was completely unexpected.

In the minds of the arrogant Europeans, science and technology are their patents. Asians are all a group of farmers and herdsmen, and their brains are completely lived in the ancient medieval times.

These barbaric pagans understand what heliocentric theory is? What is Newton's law? They even refuse to admit that the earth is round!

Science and technology are insulated from the East. No scientific breakthrough can be born on that land. A genius can be considered a genius.

But today Xiao Letian showed him an extremely ambitious plan. Does Xiao Letian not only learn European technology, but also make breakthroughs on this basis?

The Duke of Newcastle is a smart man and has received a very high education. Although he is not a scientist, he is completely familiar with the scientific system.

If what Xiao Letian said is true, then the decision he made is not difficult to explain.

Adopting the Wanguo brand standard, purchasing Wanguo's equipment, and allowing Chinese technical workers to adapt to research, this is to learn from the examples and want to make technological breakthroughs!

Although there will be a lot of chaos and discomfort at the beginning, it is the fusion and collision of multiple styles that sparks of inspiration burst out.

Xiao Letian actually has such great ambitions? The Chinese still want to make technological breakthroughs? Hahaha, it’s a joke. I don’t believe it, absolutely not!

At the critical moment, the arrogance of the European nobles came up again. He shook his head and said to Xiao Letian, "Haha, the head of state hopes that the country is prosperous and strong is worthy of praise, but there is no need..."

The Duke turned his head and looked at Zai Chun, "Dear Your Majesty, Britain has always been the best friend of the Qing Dynasty. I can guarantee you that no matter what kind of equipment you like in the UK, we will sell it to you without any private information..."

"Our engineers will help you debug equipment and train workers to ensure that you can see industrial products being produced in the fastest time... Efficiency is money!"

As he was talking, the Director Wang behind Xiao Letian suddenly spoke, "Dear Duke, I have a little different opinion... If you said that all the equipment in the Qing Dynasty is relying on buying, wouldn't this be a reluctance?"

"If a person is not independent, he may not be able to go far, so he will have to be weak, right?"

The Duke of Newcastle frowned slightly. He didn't expect someone to interrupt in such an occasion, "What is this gentleman?"

"Wang Huaiyuan... Director Wang, responsible for the news processing of the delegation..." Xiao Letian introduced with a smile.

Hiss... The Duke took a breath and said in surprise, "Is this the person in charge of the CIA? The Chinese people's successive victory was supported by his intelligence? It turns out that he was a master, and he asked for ideas..."

The Duke nodded to Director Wang with the smile of a standard diplomat, "Welcome to the UK, respected Director Wang... Your concerns are really unnecessary. The UK and the Qing Dynasty have a very close and friendly cooperative relationship. I just said that we will never hide any private matters to the Qing Dynasty..."

"No matter what technology or equipment it is, I am willing to share it with the Qing Dynasty! Even if it is military technology, we will share it together! Dear Your Majesty, with the scientific and technological support of our British Empire, I believe that the Qing Dynasty has no problem in dominating East Asia!"

Zai Chun's eyes lit up, "Really? Are you saying true? All technologies can be shared... Is this your attitude or the Prime Minister's attitude? Or is this the attitude of the queen?"

The Duke of Newcastle smiled, "My most respectful Majesty, why do you have so many doubts in your heart? Are you doubting the friendship between our two countries?"

"Yes, there are indeed some conflicts and unpleasantness in our history, but don't take it too seriously. We Europeans themselves often break out in some wars..."

"For example, France, we have fought a Hundred Years War with them, and there was a siege against Napoleon... But what can we do? After the war is over, we should cooperate. People from both countries should intermarry and get along as usual!"

"The British Empire and the Qing Empire are actually the same. Fight and reunite! Establish friendship in conflicts, achieve national balance, and finally rule the world together... You must know that our British have no territorial appeal to the Qing Dynasty?"

"Hahaha, my Majesty, have you forgotten? The customs of the Qing Dynasty are still managed by us British people. I am bluntly saying that the Qing Dynasty Customs under the leadership of Hurd is said to be the only department in the Qing Dynasty that has no corruption. The silver paid to the Qing Dynasty treasury every year is no less than ten million yuan!"

"Don't this tell us about our friendship? There are so many treaties that restrict me, Da Ying. In the treaty, we recognize the sovereignty of the Qing Dynasty, and we even recognize the rule of the Qing Dynasty over the vassal states!"

"Annan, Korea, Ryukyu, Mongolia... We recognize this relationship as the vassal states of the Qing Dynasty. Isn't this equivalent to our recognition of the Qing Dynasty's dominance in Asia?"

"If this is not the case, your Majesty's trust in us will be too disappointing. Her Majesty the Queen will definitely be sad!" The good guy, Duke of Newcastle, is possessed by the Oscar Award, and these words are full of emotion.

Especially the last few aggrieved words even moved Xiao Letian. Zaichun had never encountered such an opponent, and his face turned red at that time.

"No, no, no... Of course I believe in the UK and the Queen. This time I come to the UK, I will definitely inspect your industrial areas more. I believe our cooperation will be very pleasant!"

It was broken... Xiao Letian's heart skipped a beat and said to himself, "Master! This is a super expert. Zaichun must not have much contact with him. This is not the same level, so he should not be allowed to kill him?"

But you can't refute the Duke of Newcastle's words. The contract is clearly written in black and white, and the customs really let Hurd manage it very properly. Xiao Letian believes that Britain will definitely give Zaichun a great sweetness this time.

The young Zaichun probably had to mouth even though he knew there was a hook in his flesh.

If you can't refute the Duke openly, you have to wait for private time before slowly educating Zai Chun. The key now is to change the topic.

"Hahaha... We have already understood the feelings of the Duke. Thank you very much for the kindness of the UK. I wonder if the island ahead is the Isle of Wight? Have we arrived at the military port..."
