(Thank you for the reward of chasing my brother for good books, and thank you for subscribing.) Halfway through this book, the old demon is also thinking about a new book, preparing to no longer write about modern cities, but wants to change the style, write a record of the survival of Chinese in Europe after World War II, and will write a single heroine. Of course, the idea of the new book is still being perfected, and it will not abuse the master or deviate too far from reality. At present, I only think about the first volume of survival, the second volume of farming, and of course there will be the aid to the Communist Party that everyone is interested in later. Just to not be harmonious, I'm still thinking about how to change it. I hope you will put forward some comments and opinions, and I will reply carefully to every book review. οΌ‰

Zhou You never thought that the guerrillas would become his competitors, because a commercial company was fundamentally different from a political group. The two can complement each other well, so cooperation is the best choice, and he believes that the insightful people of the guerrillas can realize this.

At five o'clock in the afternoon, Zhou You returned to Madrid from Bilbao, and as soon as he entered the gate of the villa, the security guard walked up to the car and knocked on the window. Zhou You put down the glass and listened to him say: "Boss, Councilor Bessain came to the villa ten minutes ago and is now waiting for you in the living room. ”

Zhou You nodded and asked, "Is he alone or is he bringing other guests?" ”

"There were three guests, all arriving in his car."

The car drove directly to the door of the villa, and Zhou You got out of the car just in time to meet Bessain coming out of the house. From an instructor to a councillor, Bessain's military uniform has also become a suit. To be honest, Zhou You has always been a little unaccustomed to his current image, because he is much more handsome in a military uniform than in a suit.

"Hi Evan, did you have a smooth journey to Bilbao?"

"It went very well. I beg your pardon, I need to go upstairs to change my clothes before coming to meet our guests. By the way, what would you like to eat at night? ”

Bessain shrugged his shoulders and said, "I've already arranged the kitchen, and I'm half the master here, aren't I?" However, I think you have indulged in Grassia, and now she should not hide in Mallorca, but wait at home for your return, and arrange everything for you in life. Not only is she unable to be a good mother, but now she is not even qualified to be a wife. To be honest, I'm ashamed that she's a Basque. ”

Zhou You laughed and patted his arm. "Bessain, she is my wife, you can do these things with a servant, and what I need is a helper in my career and a partner in my heart. Do you understand? ”

"Whatever you want!" Bessain didn't want to blame his sister for this, but just wanted to test Zhou You's mind, and when he heard Zhou You's answer, of course he was satisfied. He didn't want his sister's indulgence to affect the relationship between the two parties.

Because the relationship between her and Zhou You is now becoming more and more complicated, it is no longer a simple relationship between two people, nor between two families, but involves more complex economic cooperation, including political cooperation.

Last year, because of the Basques' help on board the Royal Merchant, Zhou You returned 60 million US dollars to the Basques, and with Gracia's donations in education, Zhou You has contributed more than 100 million US dollars to the Basques in two years.

Of course, that's not the most important thing.

Through the Basques, the travels entered Colombia and a delicate balance was established between the two sides of the civil war in Colombia. This not only brings a once-in-a-lifetime development opportunity to Zhou You, but also has a huge impact on the Basque people, which is even more satisfying than this 100 million US dollars.

It is also for this reason that Rhodes and Volando Sr. are now willing to travel around and take advantage of the opportunity to get more involved in Colombia.

Of course, their purpose is not to make money, so there is no competition between them and Zhou You, and this kind of cooperation is very beneficial for both parties.

Zhou You went upstairs to the bedroom, took off his casual jacket, and changed into a suit for visitors. Sanchez whispered in his ear the issues they needed to discuss, familiarizing him with the topics that would be discussed for a while.

There were four men sitting in the living room, the youngest of whom was Bessain, who was thirty-two years old in Chinese New Year's Eve. Sitting with him was Mattia, another senator from Vizcay, a serious old man, a bit like old Volando, as if everyone owed him eight million. However, he loved and trusted Bessain very much, and always regarded Bessain as the future of the Basques.

He maintains a certain sense of distance from Zhou You, and he doesn't seem so close, but in terms of doing things, he never discounts what he should support, and he is a good collaborator.

And the two middle-aged people opposite them have never seen Zhou You, but from the information collected by Sanchez, Zhou You knows that the one who is in his fifties and has gray hair is Segulad who is about to meet him.

Seeing the appearance of Zhou You, Bessain and the others all stood up from their positions, Bessain showed a smile of an unskilled politician and said: "Evan, let me introduce to you, this is Senator Segurad, he is a senior councillor of the Madrid Region, and he has a lot of experience in law. ”

Zhou You shook his hand and said: "Although it is the first time we have met, many legal provisions that Councillor Segurad participated in formulating have a direct impact on the direction of our investment in Spain, so I have admired Councillor Segurad for a long time. You're welcome. ”

Segurad's hands were cold, but his smile looked genuine. "Thank you. I have long admired Mr. Zhou, and I have been able to become an internationally renowned investor in four years, and Mr. Zhou has subverted my long-standing view of young people. ”

Zhou You's hand shook with him, and the two of them looked at each other and nodded, and then let go of their hands.

"This is the Senator of Galicia, GoroΓ±o......"

Goronio was a short man in his forties, and his hair was a little premature like his appearance. However, among the few people, his round face looked the most kind, and his smile was very peaceful.

Zhou You held his broad palm and said in a heavy tone: "The tragedy of the Prestige has brought heavy disasters to the Galicians, and I hope that the Galicians, who are constantly striving for self-improvement, can return to a peaceful life as soon as possible." ”

"Thank you......" Goronio's face suddenly became heavy at the mention of the Prestige.

Just last month, on the 13th, the Panamanian-registered Greek tanker Prestige caused a serious oil spill when it hit a container floating in the sea. The captain sent a request for help from Spain, but the Spanish government forbade the Prestige from docking and sent a tugboat to tow the Prestige away from Spanish waters. The captain sent another plea for help to France and Portugal, which were also refused.

When the tugboat towed the Prestige away from Spanish waters, there was a strong storm in the Atlantic Ocean, and the Prestige, which had been towed to the northwest, turned to the south to tow in order to avoid the wind and find a port of call in African waters.

But on the 19th, the Prestige, which encountered strong winds, broke in two less than 170 kilometers from Spain and sank to the bottom of the sea at 3,500 meters.

At that time, the Prestige was loaded with 77,000 tons of crude oil and leaked almost 25,000 tons, causing serious ecological pollution in European countries. More than 700 kilometers of coastline in Spain alone have been devastated by pollution and a large number of fishermen have lost all their money in marine farming, with direct losses of more than US$10 billion.

The story of the Prestige traveled around his previous life and had been experienced, and since it was none of his business, he had long forgotten it. He didn't think about it until it happened, but it didn't help.

Zhou You also thought about donating, because he now has a close relationship with Spain, and he has to donate more or less money. But in Spain, it is not so simple to donate, first you have to find the recipient, and then all the money donated must be listed in a separate account, and all expenses need to be made public.

Now after the accident, all sectors of society are busy with disaster relief, traveling around to ask Gracia to donate, but now even the recipients can't take care of the procedures, and the donations are stuck here. However, when the most urgent time passes, those rescue units will have no funds, and they will definitely mobilize donations from all walks of life.

As soon as Zhou You sat down, Segurad said, "Mr. Zhou, is it convenient to arrange a conversation between two people?" ”

Seeing that there was no surprise on Bessain's face, Zhou You knew that they must have already discussed it. Segurad asked for a separate negotiation, probably because he didn't want anyone else to know about it. From this point of view, his sincerity is still very strong, because it means that he wants to use his secrets in exchange for Zhou You's concessions, although Zhou You doesn't care about these secrets.

He took Segurad to the small living room, invited him to sit down, and asked SΓ‘nchez to bring a box of Cuban cigars and push them in front of Segurad. "Please feel free, at my age, I can't appreciate the aroma of a cigar."

"Thank you, but like you, I only enjoy the anesthesia of cigarettes. …… Let's get down to business! ”

Zhou You handed him a cigarette, and this time he didn't refuse, and took it in his hand and lit it. Zhou You also leaned back on the comfortable sofa and lit the cigarette in his hand. "Your Excellency Segurad, I don't need you to explain to me how much you can do the Basques this time, nor do you need you to reveal to me what tricks you have in the hands of Runette before I have to find me. I just need to know one thing, and that is what can I get out of it? Only knowing this can I know whether it is worth it for me to do it. ”

Segurad shook his head and said, "Mr. Zhou, what if my purpose is not to apply for medical parole for Runette at all?" ”

If it's not medical parole, it's about killing Runett. However, if this is the case, Segurad will not find Zhou You at all, because there are too many people who can do this, and if he goes around a long circle to find Zhou You, he will only hand his handle to Zhou You, and Zhou You doesn't think he will be so stupid.

"Your Excellency Segurad, please don't test my intelligence, what I need is attitude."

Hearing Zhou You say this, Segurad stopped going around in circles, and said with a heavy expression: "My friendship with Runette began in my youth outside, when you were not even born. After a long relationship, even I don't know how many things I have left evidence for Runette. ”
