Before Ernst left for Trieste, Ernst had to deal with a lot of things and say goodbye to many people, including Prince Carl of Sigmaringen, Prince Leopold, the Prussian royal family, the Württemberg royal family... so It doesn't mean that I can leave as soon as I can, and I have to finish all these things.

half year ago.

Far East, Japan.

"Mr. Harano Morishita, your monkeys are indeed very unique in appearance. They are very short and stocky among monkeys. This is very consistent with the theory of evolution described by Darwin. Can the environment of the Japanese island cultivate monkeys who like to soak in hot springs? I want to know more. "

"Uh, Rosensthorne, who is Darwin?"

"A European biologist."

"Yo Xi, scientist?"

"Yes, and he is a great British biologist, very authoritative in the academic world. I used to be very unconvinced by Darwin, but when I arrived in Japan, I found that Darwin was right. There is no one like him in other countries. Japanese monkeys like to soak in hot springs."

Why does it feel like swearing! However, when Yuan Ye heard that Darwin was British, he immediately turned into a licking dog and said: "Rosensang, your country, Great Britain, is really the greatest country in the world."

Although Rosens' so-called "London accent" has a German flavor, Harano Morishita, who speaks Japanese English, can't hear it at all.

Rosens laughed loudly and said: "No, no, although we British have made some small achievements in culture, we still can't compare with countries like Germany, France and Russia. You know what makes Britain the world hegemon?" What!"

Yuanye Morishita was quite curious, so he asked: "Can you give me some advice?"

"There is nothing more than mastering the ocean. Anyone familiar with history knows that every world hegemon in the past few hundred years has accomplished this by mastering the ocean. This is true for Portugal, Spain, and the Netherlands."

"Hey, Rosenthal, you are right. We in Japan should also learn more from Britain!" Harano Morishita said, but what he was thinking in his heart was "Build more big warships, maybe we can replace them in the future."

Rosens: "Yes, there is no point in learning culture. We in the UK relied on barbaric methods to succeed. The French, who are romantic and famous for their literature, can only be manipulated by the UK and waste great opportunities. , losing the opportunity to compete with Britain, so farmers and farmers should give a comprehensive crackdown on all workers who dare to make trouble and oppose national policies to prevent them from causing a huge waste of social resources."

As a large landowner, Harano Morishita deeply agrees: "Yes, I feel the same way about this. Recently, farmers in rural Japan have been too unreasonable. They cannot understand the difficulties of the government. Now the country is in overall difficulty, and even I have to cut back on my clothes." The diet is changed to three dishes and one soup every day, but they still rebel. They are worse than uncivilized monkeys. We should resolutely crack down on this kind of waste. Only when Japan becomes rich and powerful can we all have a bright future."

Rosens: "Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Mr. Harano Morishita, can you help me find a few Japanese people, preferably both men and women, to come over. I want to show the world the customs and customs of Japan."

"Of course there is no problem!" Harano Morishita heard Rosens' request and agreed. This Rosens is a British reporter. This time he came to Hokkaido to promote Japan, and he wanted to give Japan a good face.

After a while, I don’t know where Yuanye Morishita found this strange thing. The height is generally between 1.3 and 1.5 meters. However, looking at Yuanye Morishita, who is only 1.63 meters, Rosens instantly felt that it was reasonable.

"Mr. Harano Morishita, can you catch a monkey and shake its hand? I hope you will be more friendly. This can show the theme of Japanese people living in harmony with nature."

"Yo Xi, of course there is no problem! Rosensang." Harano Morishita said very excitedly. This is to show himself the excellent character of the Japanese!

Soon, with the efforts of the servants, a female monkey was found, and she was caught in front of Harano Morishita. Following Rosens' instructions, Harano Morishita stood in front of the hot spring, grabbed the female monkey's paw, and made a handshake gesture. Not to mention the female monkey, who should be half a meter tall, standing next to Harano Morishita is not out of place, especially when compared to the four Japanese people behind who are shorter than Harano Morishita.

"Mr. Harano Morishita, don't keep a straight face, smile."

Harano Morishita was deeply influenced by Bushido and usually kept a straight face. Only when talking to Rosens, an "Englishman", did he show a polite smile that was uglier than crying.

Yuanye Morishia lived up to expectations, his smile was not ugly and could be described as shocking, weeping ghosts and gods might be more appropriate.

"Very good, just keep this expression." Rosens, who had already expected it, said with satisfaction: "Wait a minute, I'm about to shoot, don't make any changes."

With a "click", under the exposure, Yuan Ye Morishita's expression was clearly photographed. However, the female monkey was frightened for some reason and grinned, which was also captured in the photo.

"Well, Mr. Harano Morishita, you are indeed a photogenic person. I think the citizens of London will like your image of an affable samurai very much."

"Yo Xi, Rosensang, thank you so much for traveling all the way to Japan to promote Japan's international image."

"No, no, Mr. Harano Morishita, you are too polite. This is what I should do. Long live the friendship between Britain and Japan!"

"You're absolutely right! Rosenthal, but can you lend me that thing called a camera?"

"I'm afraid this is not feasible, Mr. Harano Morishita, this instrument belongs to the company and cannot be borrowed according to regulations. It is very precious."

"Then the photo you were talking about!"

Rosens said with a regretful expression: "There is no way to see it now. I can only wash it out when I return to London."

Harano Morishita felt a little regretful that he could not see his own photo, but he asked again: "Rosenssan, which newspaper company is yours? A friend of mine is going to England for a business trip soon, and I want him to Bring me one."

Rosens said with a strange expression: "No problem, our newspapers are still very influential in the UK. Remember the Sun, you can buy it in every city in the UK."

"Yo Xi, thank you."

"The Sun" is a newspaper invested by the Bank of Hechingen. When it was first launched in London, it was unanimously condemned by the British society because the newspaper formed a serious conflict with the conservative social atmosphere in the United Kingdom. Facts have proved that the use of color will not work. Far away, so "The Sun" took the route of skirting around again.

Although it was a sidestep that prevented the whistleblower from grasping the weakness of "The Sun", people from all walks of life in the UK still boycotted "The Sun" righteously. As a result, "The Sun" ranked first in sales in the UK that year.

May 8, 1871.

The new issue of "The Sun" is released, on the streets of London.

"Sir! Do you want a copy of The Times! Or the Guardian." The newsboy said as he looked at the old gentleman in front of him. According to his judgment, this kind of old gentleman likes to discuss national affairs the most.

"Give me a copy of the latest "The Sun", thank you." The old gentleman said in a low voice as much as possible. After all, it would be bad to be heard by acquaintances on the street.

"Uh, okay, sir." The little newsboy handed today's copy of "The Sun" to the old gentleman.

The old gentleman looked around and found that no one was paying attention. He quickly took the newspaper over, folded it, put it in his clothes, and took it home to enjoy.

Back home.

He closed the door tightly, lay on the sofa, took out the newspaper he bought and said, "Let me criticize... Well, these legs... the world is declining!"

Soon after feeling happy, the old gentleman slowly turned over and looked at today's news.

The Versailles Army began shelling the Paris fortifications. "If you fight well, you should let these French guys kill each other."

Soon, he noticed a picture appearing under the newspaper, with the accompanying text: Japan's love of hot springs may have originated from Japanese macaques. Darwin may be the biggest winner. What the hell is this? The old gentleman looked so scary, and the old gentleman spit at Harano Morishita in the photo. However, the writing style of "The Sun" has always been so informal, so he didn't find it strange.

A few months later, Harano Morishita, who was spurned by countless London citizens, also received the "Sun" from a friend in London. When he learned that "The Sun" was a color newspaper, Harano Morishita's face turned green with anger.

"Pull out a tooth..."

A few years later, the story of Yuanye Morishita was widely spread by friends who spoke strictly. Yuanye Morishita died in depression. Before he died, he said to his grandson: "In the future... we must kill more British people..."
