Chapter 1094: Founding the State

Guo Zhuocheng was noncommittal, poured him a glass of water with his own hands, and walked towards the reception area. レ Idea Guest レ

Haleps looked around excitedly and saw that there was no entry around - how could there be outside the office of the Director of the Commissioner? Apparently this guy was overly cautious - and then lowered his voice and said: "Guo, the entry of the Palau side allows us to stand on our own from Gloraine-Bill, and I will send you the relevant documents that I signed with them this time." ......, in fact, this island originally belonged to our family, and the negotiation with them was completely for the sake of the face of the United States, and it had nothing to do with them. ”

Guo Zhuocheng glanced at the declining royal family member of Halleps and asked, "Are Palau independent of themselves?" Do their nationals agree to secede from the United States? I think it will take them more than ten years to stand on their own, right? Why are you allowed to stand on your own first? ”

In the history of previous lives, Palau only became independent from the United States under the trusteeship of the United States in 1994, and it has always handed over the country's defense and security to the United States.

Halleps hurriedly said, "Why am I on my own?" This island is yours. Again, I have to remind you that it's not mine, it's you. I just want to be prime minister. ”

Guo Zhuocheng looked at this guy who was obsessed with officials and smiled, and said, "If I want to play with you, I don't have this ambition." Hehe, do you really have a sense of accomplishment in ruling an island with no access? ”

Like many members of the declining royal family, Halleps always had that dream of restoring the glory of the royal family, and now it is impossible for him to restore it in Spain, so he has to use the island of Gloraine-Bir to realize his dream, with the help of Princess Madeleine's lineage, and with the help of the economic power of the IIC company.

Seeing that Guo Zhuocheng was still as uninterested as before, he hurriedly said, "What is an island without entry?" We have built it so well, and the future will definitely come in many, many places, are we still worried that we will not have subjects under our hands? Are you afraid that there is no influence? I can say with certainty that our country is much more majestic than many small African countries, small Caribbean countries, and even more famous than some large African countries, and you will not be disappointed. ”

Guo Shucheng smiled and said: "Okay, I will congratulate you, and I will call you Your Excellency the Prime Minister in the future." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and said, "Your Excellency, please show me the relevant documents." ”

Haleps hurriedly took out a stack of Wen Jiàn from the Wen Jiàn folder he brought and handed it to Guo Zhuocheng, while saying: "Actually, this is those Palau who let me come out, let us experiment on Glolin-Biel Island, and set an example for those ordinary people who don't want to secede from the United States." Otherwise, they wouldn't have so readily agreed to us to set up a country on our own. ”

Guo Zhuocheng said: "Isn't it because you use money to open the way? In addition, this island was not theirs in the first place, and they couldn't govern it anyway, so they did this to go with the flow. What does the American side say? ”

Haleps flipped through a few pages, tapped with his hand, and said, "The United States doesn't care about this. They simply ask us to hand over our defence to them and not allow the armies of other countries to be stationed on our islands. It seems to me that they would like to divide the inhabitants of these islands, lest they eat their bounty. ”

In the previous life, the United States really did not mean to take over the Pacific islands. Many of the islands occupied during World War II were abandoned, allowing them to govern themselves or stand on their own, and even some important military bases. For example, the US military base in the Philippines was handed over to the Philippines. It's just that after the 21st century, in order to contain China, they began to pay attention to the Pacific islands again, began to seek military storage in various places, and wanted to enter the Subic base in the Philippines.

In this life, because of the rise of China, their strength has been relatively weakened, and they are a little more powerless than in their previous life, and they are more eager to abandon the poor islands in the Pacific. It is already difficult to take on the defense of these islands, and they do not want to bear the burden of caring for the poor inhabitants of the islands.

In addition to the backward fishing industry, the industries of these Pacific islands are also backward in tourism. Because the traffic is too inconvenient, and the tourism is not developed, it is difficult for customers to go to the island, not to mention, even if they finally go to the island, they can't see any beautiful scenery, they haven't eaten, they don't live, and they are even worried about the danger of their lives.

As for their fishery, at most, it is to fill their own stomachs, because the fishing boats are small and dilapidated, the fishing equipment is backward, there are no modern refrigerated boats, and there are very few fish caught, and they cannot be transported to the European and American markets, and they cannot be exchanged for money.

If the United States wants to accept them as its citizens, it is purely raising them, and it needs to constantly invest huge sums of money in these islanders, and it needs to keep throwing money into this bottomless pit.

The United States is not a fool, and American politicians are not fools, so they are naturally unwilling to do such a thankless task, and they really wish that those impoverished islands would stand on their own.

It was in this context that Palau in the previous life was duli, and the Halleps in this life also operated successfully in this context. Thanks to his efforts and that of the Spanish royal family and the IIC, the island of Gloraine-Bil was transformed into a small country, a small country with no defense and no citizens.

Guo Shucheng has no interest in this, but he will not object to Halleps doing this, or that his disregard and indifference are all pretended, pretending to be for others to see. This exclusion refers not only to Haleps, but also to high-ranking officials in China. Because the establishment of a country is definitely a matter of strict politics, no matter who is Guo Zhuocheng's superior, he will not allow his subordinates to work under him while seeking to become the head of a country outside.

However, Guo is very aware of the tremendous role and benefits of a country. Even if it's the smallest, even if it doesn't have national defense, it can have diplomacy, it can make a louder voice in the international arena than most corporations, and if it goes along with it, it can even join the United Nations and have a vote for a United Nations meeting.

This ticket is hard to buy, and no matter how rich a company is, it can't buy it.

Moreover, the islands it owns and the waters around it are treasures, and the fish in the sea, the minerals and oil on the bottom of the sea, are all valuable things.

Another obvious benefit is the issue of tax payment by enterprises, as well as the autonomy of importing and exporting goods, which is easy to deal with your own country. ......, it can be said that these benefits are enough to make you feel excited.

As for power, the temptation of power in charge of a country, Guo Zhuocheng doesn't take it to heart, how much power can an island with few people enter? How many can you control? It's just that it's too far from the average medium-sized company.

Of course, the number of nationals can be increased.

The Vatican is also a sovereign state in the world, with an area of only 0.44 square kilometers and an entrance of only 572 entrances. And the island of Gloraine-Bir is twenty times the size of the Vatican, and the entrance will also be able to surpass it in the future.

All in all, there are advantages and disadvantages to building a small country for Guo Zhuocheng, and the benefits for the country greatly outweigh the benefits for him, because Guo Zhuocheng no longer cares about these interests, but the country can have one more little brother who waives the flag and shouts, and some things that China does not come forward can be done by this small country.

However, the damage caused by the small country to Guo Zhuocheng is not small.

Therefore, Guo Zhuocheng is just happy to see the establishment of the Night Pearl Island, but he is not very positive.

Haleps agitated: "Guo, this can definitely be done, and as long as we declare the founding of the country, many small countries will recognize us and establish diplomatic relations with us." Now it's up to you or Princess Madeleine to be the king of the country. ”

Guo Shucheng smiled: "Anyway, the prime minister must be you." ”

Haleps said unceremoniously: "Yes, I have to be this prime minister." I don't think I can deny my contribution to the founding of this country. Guo, what do you think? ”

Guo Shucheng nodded: "I have to admit that what you said is right." You've done a lot to build this country. ”

"Yes, yes, I have given a lot, not only for time, but also for a lot of money." Haleps didn't mean anything modest, and immediately asked, "Guo, what is my annual salary as prime minister?" ”

Guo Zhuocheng couldn't imagine that this official fan was also a money fan, so he couldn't help asking: "Then how much do you think the annual salary is appropriate?" ”

Haleps apparently thought about this question for a long time, and said a little depressedly: "The annual salary of being a prime minister is too low now, and the annual salary of being a president is not high." Guo, how about you give me an annual salary of $300,000? That's lower than the senior executives of the IIC. ”

Guo Shucheng shook his head and said, "No! It's too high. What do you want the President of the United States to think? Not to mention the French president. ”

The annual salary of the US president was only $200,000, and it was not until Bush took office that it reached $400,000. The French president has only a few hundred thousand dollars, and the annual salary of the prime minister is about two hundred thousand dollars.

Halep said, "How can I compare with them? ””

Guo Shucheng smiled: "Hehe, they can't compare with you?" Is that because you have more power than they do? Or is it because you have a heavier workload than theirs? Or is it because you manage more entrances? ”

"No, not at all," said Halleps. It is their welfare that is better than mine, their prestige is high, and their power is greater. You see them, each of them has their own special plane, they have the presidential palace or the prime minister's office, they all have their own guards, and they also have their own full-time doctors and advisers. Every time you go out, which time is not the front and back hugs, which time is not the infinite scenery? And I'm just an enter, it's really not majestic. ”
