Holy Roman Empire

The French government's energy is much greater than that of several capitalists. After being authorized by the Paris government, Minister Tom's confidence was enough.

In less than a month, the Panama Canal development right was obtained from the Colombian government, and the price paid was only a batch of material assistance.

The main reason was the arms. The armed forces in Colombia did not fight. The main reason was external pressure.

Everyone is afraid of the outbreak of the civil war, and they will be able to take advantage of it and become a colony again.

Especially Austria, who is afraid of the next door, is a Central American colony, and already has military forces that threaten their survival.

Due to the lessons learned from the Central American countries, the Colombian government is even afraid to accept European immigrants at random, for fear of being crowned from within.

Colombia itself has a small population and does not dare to accept European immigrants in large numbers. Naturally, economic development is not fast.

Now that the Panama Canal is authorized to the French, in addition to material assistance, it also means introducing French forces to check and balance Austria.

These are minor issues, and neither France nor Austria treats Colombia as one thing. If you want to play balance, you also need to see if you can control it.

If the Panama Canal is already navigable, then for the benefit, conflict between France and Austria may indeed break out. Unfortunately, the current canal is only on paper.

It is impossible for two great powers to erupt for possible interests. To put it bluntly, pre-draining canals also requires prerequisites. If the geological conditions are not suitable, it is not surprising that digging is impossible.

Everyone is very realistic. If we can take into account the events in ten or twenty years, that is all far-sighted.

If you think about what will happen a hundred years later, that's nonsense. The world is changing so fast, who knows what will happen in the future?

The French offered a good price, and the Vienna government did not interfere.

The establishment of the Canal Company is very smooth. Nino, the president of the back-knight, is a spirited organization to explore the terrain.

The headquarters of the Paris Canal Company has begun preparations for listing and financing. There were no exploration reports and the design plan was not published, so the listing plan came out first.

This is not a joke, but reality. In the face of interest, these procedures are not important, and capitalists have ways to circumvent them.

There are still many such scams in the capital market. As long as you can make money, the success of the project does not matter.

Nino still has some abilities, otherwise he won't be able to carry the potboy. Looking at the investigation report in his hand, President Nino had a headache.

The Panama Strait has a tropical marine climate, with abundant rainfall and loose soil.

In terms of construction, loose soil seems to be a good thing, and it is easy to dig earthwork. But for the canal project, it was a disaster.

In the opinion of President Nino: "Ample rainwater + soil looseness = landslide + silt", which not only means that the cost during the development of the canal will increase, even the later operating costs will increase.

In addition, there are many poisonous insects in the local jungle, and diseases often occur, which is also a trouble to be encountered in the construction of the canal.

The "dead man" Nino does not care. There is a classic case of the Suez Canal. He is very clear that if the Panama Canal does not have tens of thousands of lives, it may not be dug out.

The Panama Strait seems to be narrower. As long as it is only 61 kilometers, only a third of the Suez Canal, the construction is actually more difficult.

After a preliminary assessment of the incomplete information in his hands, Nino reluctantly reached this conclusion he least wanted.

Secretary Ralph Shen Shenghui reported: "President, the embassy has just heard the news that the Colombian government has refused to provide us with an excuse for insufficient labor."

Everyone knows that the casualties of the canal digging are huge. It is no secret that high-level personnel are involved in the construction of the Suez Canal and the death of more than 100,000 workers.

The Colombian government naturally heard about it. The Egyptian government just jumped this huge pit and made the domestic people do not talk about life. Only then did the French take advantage of it and occupied Egypt.

Colombia has a smaller population and it is simply impossible to provide them with hundreds of thousands of workers.

It is only necessary to recruit indigenous workers. If you dare to use white people as labor, it is estimated that if the labor is not enough, domestic rumors will spread.

Nino frowned: "Contact the embassy and let them continue to communicate with the Colombian government. In any case, they must first be provided with a batch of labor emergency.

The board of directors is looking for cheap labor, as long as they have passed the start of the project, they will not be needed later. "

No way, there are too many pits this year, and investors are not easy to cheat. You must start early to make money easier.

How can a project on paper be compared to a project that has already been implemented? The canal company's stock plan has blown the bull to the sky, and the board of directors has urged him to start construction every day.

Secretary Ralph: "Yes, President."

As he was about to leave, Nino added: "Wait a minute and report to the board the information we surveyed.

Remember, the word out of a possible outbreak is hidden. Even if there is a possibility of an outbreak in the country, shareholders will not want to read such remarks. "

Without cost analysis, Nino also knew that the canal plan had exceeded the original cost estimate, and it was simply a dream to want to use a third of the Suez Canal to build a canal.

It was not easy to become the person in charge of this project, and Nino didn't seem to see the Canal Plan fail. If he missed this opportunity, perhaps he has no chance to go further in this life.

The best way is to let the canal plan start first. At that time, more capital will be invested, and the capitalists will be reluctant to give up. They can only do it bit by bit.

As for whether the big guys who have been behind the scenes will cause trouble, Nino is not worried at all. The Panama Canal Company is going to go public for financing, and these costs can be passed on to investors.

If there are loopholes in the work, it is normal. As long as there is no generous return for everyone, everything is not a problem.

For the Panama Canal project, Nino is confident. As long as the canal is navigable, he is confident to recover the cost within ten years.

This is only the obvious benefit, and the hidden benefit should be several times the navigation fee. Such generous returns are enough to quell the grievances of shareholders.

...

In London, Prime Minister Benjamin was worried about the battle report. He had already thought about what would be written in the newspaper tomorrow.

Opposition parties will certainly take the opportunity to engage in things and crack down on the prestige of the government.

Everyone did it this way, working **** the stage, implementing their own political ideas, and taking advantage of it; while off the stage, they desperately demolished their competitors.

At a cabinet meeting, Prime Minister Benjamin threw the telegram to the table: "This is Ismail's waste call for help. As soon as the war began, we lost one-fifth of our troops, including an Army Corps Was disabled and established.

As for the results, it is really brilliant, annihilating 200,000 enemy forces.

I would rather believe that the sun would come out from the west than that this result would be true. All annihilated the 20 enemy forces, and requested a distant soldier. Does the enemy have millions of troops? "

The false reporting of the Warring States Period has become a chronic illness of the British Army. Especially when defeated, in order to escape responsibility, it is necessary to create a glorious Warring States Period.

It's just that this play was a bit excessive. If it was reported to be 8,000, the London government would admit it. After all, the lid was lifted and the government would be scolded.

In the principle of making small things small and small things small, such things usually happen, and everyone quietly covers the past.

Secretary of the Army Fox said with an awkward look: "Sir Prime Minister, this may have been a mistake for the telegrapher, and an extra zero was hit.

We have sent people to verify that our army suffered 5,876 casualties, of which three-quarters were Indian colonial forces, which wiped out 15,796 enemy forces and rounded up to 20,000. "

This data should be much more acceptable. More than 5,000 people were killed and wounded, and nearly three times as many enemies were wiped out. It was barely justified.
