One acre is about 0.004 square kilometers, and 200,000 acres, which is about 800 square kilometers.

Li Mu did not know how large the East Texas Oilfield was. He only gave Henry an approximate range, so the area that Henry bought was indeed a bit large. Taking down all the land he could buy was considered a fixed asset of Li Mu. .

Li Mu has no plans to develop the East Texas oil field now. It is not cost-effective to extract oil this year. There are not many uses for oil. Except for refining kerosene, it can only be used for road construction. The demand for gasoline is basically negligible. If Li Mu develops the East Texas oilfield now, let alone say how much cost is needed, I am afraid that so much oil will flood the market, and the current oil price will be able to instantly penetrate the cost line. I am afraid that Li Mu and Rockefeller's Relationships will soon be on fire.

So no matter how Rockefeller's heart is tickling, Li Mu will keep his mouth shut.

At the end of May, there was still no reply from Prince Edward's side. Li Mu decided to give up his cooperation with Prince Edward and instead search for partners from continental Europe.

In fact, the UK is not the best partner. The UK is a crap, both for Europe and the world. Therefore, Li Mu himself is not inclined to cooperate with the British. If he can choose, Li Mu is more willing Choose German.

Germany is a very magical country. Although Li Mu is not a "German Stick", it does not prevent Li Mu from admiring Germany.

Before 1815, the unified German Confederation did not appear. At that time, there were many loose confederations on German territory. Its country was torn apart, partly occupied by the Danes, partly occupied by the Austrians, and partly occupied by the French.

In 1864, Prussia, which was established less than half a century ago, defeated Denmark and regained the land occupied by Denmark in the north; in 1866, Prussia defeated Austria in the "Seven Weeks War" and established the North German Confederation the following year; in 1870, Prussia launched The Franco-Prussian War, and successfully defeated France, known as the "Army First", many states in southern Germany broke away from French rule.

It wasn't until 1871 that the Germans achieved unity in a practical sense and established the German Empire.

If there were no accidents, by 1914, Germany would launch World War I, and in the world war singled out the British and French powers, but they still did not fall. In the end, due to the intervention of Americans, Germany regretted defeat.

Yes, for Li Mu, the defeat of Germany in World War I was really regrettable. If Germany was not defeated at that time, the colonial order led by Britain and France would collapse and the world would move in another direction. The following eight years of the War of Resistance.

In the First World War, Japan declared war on Germany and took the Germans from the Germans to lease the Jiaodong Peninsula of the Qing Empire. If Germany won the final victory, the Japanese who took the opportunity to steal food would be liquidated. It will be the end for Japan.

If there were no external forces involved, Germany would not launch World War I until 1914. At that time, Li Mu was almost sixty years old, and it was not possible to see the results of the war.

Li Mu didn't want to miss the big show, so Li Mu wanted to cooperate with the Germans to help Germany as much as possible and to incite the Germans to challenge the international order jointly established by the British and French. If the time comes, the United States can stand in Germany From a standpoint, Li Mu would like to see how long the British and French can last.

This is not impossible. Do n’t overestimate the moral bottom line of Americans. Do n’t look at the fact that the United States is Britain ’s own son. According to news from Li Mu, in another time and space, when the World War broke out, Americans were in full swing, whether it was Germany. People are still British. As long as they bring out real gold and silver, Americans ca n’t wait to sell their underpants until the two sides have run out of oil and no more oil and water. The United States has weighed on human rights again and again, and then choose to join. The English and French sides that have the upper hand pick the peaches.

The United States is a capitalist country. The United States is not a republic. The United States does not have a queen. The United States has only tycoons. Therefore, if the tycoons in the United States insisted on Washington to join the German side, it is still unknown who will die.

Li Mu would like to serve this variable.

After making up his mind, Li Mu immediately ordered Henry to send people to Krupp to contact the Germans and explore the possibility of cooperation.

In fact, before that, Steed Weapons Company and Krupp had already cooperated. Steed Weapons Company authorized Krupp to produce smokeless powder, and Krupp transferred some advanced artillery technology to Steed Weapons Company. Cooperation is very pleasant.

This time Li Mu sent someone to Krupp to establish a comprehensive cooperative relationship with Krupp. If the cooperation is successful, Li Mu will transfer related technologies such as electric lights, telephones, and automobiles to Krupp, and Krupp will provide Junma Group transferred equivalent technology or paid corresponding royalties to Junma Group.

However, in terms of technical value, the Junma Group may suffer losses, but if this can promote the rapid development of German strength, then Li Mu thinks it is worth it.

Some things cannot be measured with money.

After learning about Li Mu's thoughts, Henry sat in a reclining chair on the balcony of Li Mu's office for a long time and pondered.

"That is to say, we may use English and French as enemies in the future." When Henry said this, Henry swallowed heavily.

"From the perspective of the United States, any other country is our enemy." Li Mu vaguely deliberately blurred the concept of "enemy".

"It's different, it's different--" Henry lost his soul.

"Why aren't they the same? Can't the British be our enemy? No! Don't forget, we can only be independent because we defeated Britain, and now you and I know the war that broke out in Montana, This is a war between us and British agents, so we have always been enemies and have never been friendly. "Li Mu has already seen through it, and she will definitely not be a wife on this issue.

"Although you are telling the truth, but-" Henry Ai Ai, although I feel irrefutable by Li Mu, just feels that something is not right.

"Think of Henry. If our Steed Group has been expanding, from the East Coast to the West Coast, our factories are all over the United States. What will happen then?" Li Mu guided Henry to think according to his own thinking.

"That means, that means we will become the largest company in the United States." Henry finally regained his sanity.

"Very good, the biggest company in the United States, what a bright future, but what does that mean? It means we can produce more products, it means we need a bigger market to sell these products, and now the world market Are they all under the control of that country? Can our products enter those markets freely? If not, what should we do, and watch the development of the company fall into a trance? "Li Mu asked a series of questions, the questions were more acute than one.

Local protectionism is killing people. Britain occupies the world's largest colony, and regards the colony as a place of origin of raw materials and dumping of products. Products from other countries do not want to enter the British colony.

The predicament facing the United States is the same as Germany's rising star. They are facing a situation of lack of living space, and they all need a larger product market. Therefore, from this perspective, Li Mu has reason to support Germany. The interests are consistent with Germany.

"Yes, we need the market." Henry was stimulated, his eyes flushed immediately.

That's right, businessmen, making money is the main purpose, and politics is all about serving the economy, so when it comes to benefits, Henry can't help but be anxious.

"So, we and Germany have a wide range of common interests. What the Germans need is exactly what we need. If a war is needed to achieve the goal, then let the war break out. In order to occupy a stronger position in the war, we start from Be prepared now. "Li Mu, starting from the side, can incite one to count one.

"War is inevitable. The British will not watch their own interests jeopardize. In order to ensure their own interests, the British can do anything." Henry also knew the British's integrity.

Henry knew for sure, because Henry himself was British.

It is a strange fact when talking about this, Li Mu and Henry both ignored the French subconsciously.

In fact, do n’t look at France ’s relatively poor performance during World War II. During World War I, the French were still fierce. It was also because France overwhelmed during World War I. A generation has been sacrificed, so by the Second World War, France was unable to fight again. In the face of the German blitz, France collapsed.

In fact, the collapse of France can now be seen. In the Franco-Prussian war, France lost all its face, not only lost Alsace and Lorraine, but also compensated a large amount of money, so that it was only possible to reluctantly pass the sale of national debt. Germany also broke through The myth of the French army "first in the world".

Without the stimulus of the Franco-Prussian War, German ambitions would not have grown so fast.

"So we have to be ready from now on. Once the war comes, we have to secure enough space for survival, we have to break free of all the puppets, and no matter who the enemy is in front of us, we must tear it all into pieces. "Li Mu was so aggressive, now he was in a state of madness.

"Well, I will go to Germany in person tomorrow." Henry was also determined that since the alliance with Krupp is irreversible, then Henry will strive for the most favorable conditions for the Steed Group.

"No no no, don't go, at least don't go now, but you are the president of the Junma Group. It's too rash to come here now, let someone explore the tone first." Li Mu did not let Henry go to Germany.

Just kidding, Henry was gone, and everything would fall on Li Mu's head. Li Mu didn't want to work hard all day long.
