Expedition to Europe

When Yang Deshan reacquired Mobil Oilfield, Qin Zhiyuan and Pierre were chatting about Tunisia.

Of course, the focus of Qin Zhiyuan and Pierre's attention was not Yang Deshan, nor even Tunisia. Qin Zhiyuan just used the example of Tunisia and then Pierre as an example.

"Look at Tunisia and you will understand. Do you think France's rule over Tunisia can last forever? Stop dreaming! You can think about it. If you don't get rid of the Madagascar people, then even if the Madagascar people Submitting to you now is also temporary, because they are now They are in a weak situation. If the Malagasy people become stronger, they will definitely make more demands, and if you do not satisfy them, it will become their reason for revolution." Qin Zhiyuan still used the word "revolution." , and now stands on the opposite side of "revolution".

With Qin Zhiyuan like this, even if he returns to China to find the PLA now, it is estimated that the PLA will not accept Qin Zhiyuan.

"No wonder you wanted to move the Corsicans away in the first place -" Pierre was still sarcastic in his words.

Qin Zhiyuan and Pierre are now on the castle tower of the Eagle's Nest. From a high place, they can overlook the entire Thunder City. Looking at Thunder City from Pierre's perspective, it is neatly planned and laid out rigorously, and it is indeed run with a lot of thought.

But that's how it is. The better Qin Zhiyuan manages Thunder City, the harder it will be for Pierre to let go.

It has not yet reached the point of "giving up", but as Qin Zhiyuan said, no one can predict the future. Maybe one day the "Corsicans" will make more demands and demand more power. By then, France Will the government provide it or not?

If so, will it make France less and less important to the Corsicans?

If not, would that be a reason for the Corsican revolution?

No matter which situation it was, Pierre didn't want to see it.

"Since keeping them is a hidden danger, why keep them?" Qin Zhiyuan did not deny it, but admitted happily: "You must still remember that when the Foreign Legion arrived in Corsica, there was no Lanfang at that time, so we really When you build Corsica as your own home, it must be perfect. Everyone hopes that their home can make them feel at ease. "

"It's bullshit. Let's not talk about it here. Let's go back to Madagascar. How can we get rid of those Malagasy people at the minimum cost?" Pierre decided to leave Corsica behind and not worry about the future. Upset.

Ever since he decided to go to Madagascar, Pierre has been asking Qin Zhiyuan for advice on how to make Madagascar a part of France. Qin Zhiyuan can be said to be an expert in this aspect. From Lanfang itself, to the northern Xinjiang region, to Yingzhou and Goryeo, Qin Zhiyuan has expanded Lanfang's territory several times, and he must have some unique skills.

"The smallest cost is a small bullet, but that method is too cruel, so it is not recommended. The best way is to immigrate. Whether it is sent to Africa or to the Americas, this is a good way. You can Contract this work to those businessmen, and the businessmen have plenty of ways to complete the work. "You still have to rely on experts to solve the problem. Qin Zhiyuan is not pedantic on this point.

Businessmen are a very magical profession. No matter how incredible it is, businessmen always have a way to accomplish it. As long as businessmen can see profits, then businessmen will definitely give full play to their subjective initiative.

"Businessman—" Pierre hesitated.

If you want to use businessmen, then the news will inevitably spread, which will have an impact on Pierre to some extent. Although it will not cause him to lose his official position, it will definitely cause criticism from those sanctimonious "gentlemen" in France. The purpose of Pierre's trip to Madagascar was to accumulate reputation, so Pierre was still a little hesitant.

"Targeting indigenous peoples" will probably only cause controversy in France, where the concept of "freedom and equality" has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. If it were in the United States, there would be no problem at all. Americans have still not stopped targeting Indians. Although the United States claims to be "free and equal" due to human persecution, no one pities the Indians.

There is also a big question mark over "freedom and equality" in the United States. Not long ago, American women had just gained the right to vote, and a large number of black people did not have the right to vote at all. Where is the "freedom and equality" in the United States reflected?

"Don't worry, you just need to reveal your intention in this regard, and businessmen will naturally come to your door. All you need to do is to negotiate with those businessmen, and maybe you can get a lot of income." Qin Zhiyuan wanted to hide his skin. Pierre is also very sincere, and he is determined to lead Pierre down the wrong path.

"You mean-" Pierre's eyes widened with disbelief on his face.

"Yes, that's what I meant." Qin Zhiyuan was honest and understood what Pierre was worried about.

For a long time, black people were sold as commodities. At the beginning of the last century, a black person could be sold for $800 in the United States. This was a way for many people to make a fortune at the time.

The United States abolished the "Slavery Order" during the Civil War, but in many states, the transaction of buying and selling black people did not completely stop. In Brazil and other places, black people are still sold as commodities, but they have just moved from open to underground, becoming A gray area.

Qin Zhiyuan wanted Pierre to promote the slave trade, even if it was just secretly promoted, there would be countless businessmen who found business opportunities and came to him. The nature of businessmen is to pursue profits. As long as business opportunities are found, many businessmen will come like sharks smelling fish in the sea, and they can't be driven away.

"That's crazy, too crazy--" Pierre has not "fallen" to the same level as Qin Zhiyuan, and he kept shaking his head and repeating this sentence.

"If you can't do it, you might as well let the Foreign Legion do it. This is not a very difficult thing. You should know that every year there are countless people who want to smuggle, and you are helping them to achieve their wishes." Qin Zhiyuan didn't feel how "degenerate" he was, and took the initiative to help the Foreign Legion to do the work.

In fact, Qin Zhiyuan was stealing the concept. There are indeed many Africans who want to smuggle every year, but their first goal is Europe, where the living standards are higher, not America, which is about the same level as them. Moreover, Africans smuggle not to become slaves, but to have a better life. These are two completely different things, but Qin Zhiyuan deliberately confuses them.

"If I hand this over to the Foreign Legion, can it offset the cost of hiring the Foreign Legion?" Pierre was still tempted. From the perspective of the country, there is indeed not much "mercy" to talk about. It didn't take Pierre long to convince himself.

"Of course, it is estimated that it will exceed the amount. I will give you a discount at that time, which can also be regarded as supporting your construction in Madagascar." Qin Zhiyuan was generous. This was what Qin Zhiyuan wanted to do for Pierre.

Pierre wanted to get rid of the Malagasy people in order to win political prestige and develop the resources on the island of Madagascar. If he got rid of the people but did not carry out any development, it would not help Pierre's reputation much. As long as Madagascar was built into another Corsica, it could contribute to the French government instead of becoming a burden to France, which would more effectively enhance Pierre's reputation.

At this point, the communication was almost over.

In the next few days, Pierre stayed in Paris to lobby for the position of Governor of Madagascar. With Pierre's energy, it was not too difficult, not to mention the help of old Renault, Pierre soon got what he wanted.

The original text is in the six # 9 @book/bar!

Old Renault is determined to become a mining tycoon, and Madagascar has rich resources. Old Renault has long coveted the treasures underground in Madagascar, but he did not take further action because he had no chance.

Now with Pierre as an acquaintance, and Qin Zhiyuan also intervened, Old Renault almost did not hesitate and decided to join immediately.

As the top one in the French business community, Old Renault represents the weather vane of Paris. Although Old Renault has now given up the Renault Group, compared with the past, Old Renault's wealth is more abundant and his means of making money are more secretive, which makes people envious and jealous.

With the addition of old Renault, a group of people soon gathered around Pierre. These people are not ordinary people. Each of them represents an interest group, has their own connections and resources, and will of course use the resources in their hands to serve Pierre, because their vision can only be realized by Pierre.

So before the end of June, Pierre got the position of Governor of Madagascar as he wished.

Qin Zhiyuan was not idle either. During this period, Qin Zhiyuan visited Italy and met with the King of Italy and the Pope. The meeting with the Pope was particularly harmonious.

In the past few years since the establishment of Lan Fang, Catholicism has developed rapidly in Asia, not only in the areas controlled by Lan Fang. Because of the special relationship between Qin Zhiyuan and Catholicism, Catholicism also has a large number of believers in the Republic of China, which makes the Pope very satisfied with Qin Zhiyuan. The relationship between the two almost reached the point of burning yellow paper and cutting chicken heads to become sworn brothers.

Compared with the Pope, the meeting with the King of Italy was not so pleasant.

The reason is still Corsica. Just look at the map and you will know that Corsica is too close to Sardinia. Sardinia just became part of Italy half a century ago. Until now, there are still voices on Sardinia demanding autonomy, which really makes King Vittorio Emanuele III of Italy sleepless.

Vittorio Emanuele III believes that it is because Corsica secretly supports the Sardinians that Sardinia is in turmoil, so Qin Zhiyuan's meeting with Vittorio Emanuele III was not pleasant.

To be honest, Qin Zhiyuan really didn't do anything in Sardinia. Qin Zhiyuan's attention is now on Australia and North Africa. He can't even take care of the US election in full swing, and he didn't pay attention to Sardinia at all.

However, after returning to Corsica from Italy, Qin Zhiyuan looked at the map and found that Corsica was too close to Sardinia. The distance between the two islands is only 11 kilometers, and even many Lan Fang soldiers can swim across armed.

No wonder Vittorio Emanuele III thought so.
