Chapter 652: Cooperation with the Jews (Part II)

Busy Constanta is still the largest port in Romania. Every year, millions of tons of goods pass through the port and are shipped all over the world. Of course, as the largest commercial port in Romania, it is also the first stop in Romania chosen by many people.

David Ben Gurion looked at the various ships docked in the harbor and said to the entourage with envious expressions on his face. "Don't worry, our country will not be inferior in the future."

Ben Gurion was born in Poland as Gaglin. A fiery Zionist in his youth, he came to Palestine in 1906, first as a journalist. At the beginning of his political career, he changed the Jewish name Ben-Gulyan.

In 1915 he met his Russian wife, Bora Ben-Gulyan, in New York, USA, and they married in 1917, and they later had three children together. They returned to Palestine in 1918, and in 1921 he organized the General Labor Union of Israel. In 1930 he founded the Israeli Labor Party.

And this time his mission is to contact Eder to see if he can get Romania's support, and by the way, to appreciate the strength of Romania.

And the Romanian personnel in charge of receiving them also came to them very quickly.

"Hello, Mr. Ben Gurion, I'm Monar, and I'm in charge of this reception."

An officer who greeted them introduced himself.

"Hello Mr. Monal, the next step is to follow your arrangement."

In the face of the Romanian reception staff, Ben Gurlian also responded politely. However, judging from the speech and demeanor of these people, they should not be government officials. So in his heart, Ben Gullian was a little unsure about whether he could reach a favorable agreement with Romania.

That's right, this reception was handled by the royal chamberlain. Because Eder doesn't want to make this reception known to everyone at the moment. If the negotiation is successful, it is easy to say, but if the negotiation is not successful, it is called embarrassing.

Ben Gurion was accustomed to this, for he had seen all the more unaccustomed ones, which was why he was so desperate for the Jews to have their own state.

After picking up Ben Gourian and his party at the port of Constanta, they drove to Bucharest. Although the Romanians who were in charge of receiving them along the way were polite and kind, no matter how much Ben Gurlian tried to talk about them, he could not get any useful information.

Just kidding, they were all squires, and it would be a shame to be disgraced if Ben Gurlian was told to talk about it like a child.

After a series of examinations, Ben Gourian finally met Eder.

"Hello, Mr. Ben Gurion."

As soon as they met, Edel greeted him in a friendly manner.

"Hello, Your Majesty."

Compared to Eder, Ben Gurion is much more restrained.

However, Eder turned a blind eye to this and directly stated the purpose of his invitation. "Mr. Ben Gurion, the main purpose of my meeting with Your Excellency is to help the Jews in Palestine. I learned that the Jews who are currently in the region have poor relations with the local Arabs, and that conflicts are occurring from time to time. This saddened me and made me plan to sell you a batch of weapons to keep the Jews safe there. ”

Eder said that he would send weapons to the Jews in Palestine against the Arabs, and Ben Gurion was certainly a hundred willing. However, he also knew that there was no such thing as a free lunch, and since His Majesty Eder was so generous, there must be a demand for it.

"Thank you for your concern for the Jews, and we are deeply grateful to Romania for being able to help the Jewish community so selflessly. I don't know how we can help Your Majesty. ”

Seeing Ben Gurion so upright, Eder also said what he wanted. "Yes, I am very interested in Professor Einstein's theory of relativity, but Romanian universities have invited him to give lectures in Romania many times, but it may be that Professor Einstein is too busy to make the trip. So I hope to be able to meet Professor Einstein in person, and I believe that this is also the hope of the Romanian scientific community, and of course it is better for him to go to Romania to promote his theory. We can also help in other ways for this. ”

Ben Gourian, of course, knew Eder's intentions in keeping Einstein in Romania. But at the moment Einstein is a trump card for the Jews, and how could he agree without asking clearly.

"Then Your Majesty, I don't know what kind of help you are talking about?"

Knowing that you were going to ask, Eder immediately said what he could to help. "This includes diplomatic, military, and economic assistance to the Jews in Palestine, and of course if the outcome is satisfactory, then Romania can become a refuge for the Jews, in order to guarantee your fellow citizens from persecution."

Eder's answer moved Ben Gurion a little, for the Jews in Europe were having a hard time at the moment. As Hitler came to power, Germany's hostility towards the Jews became more and more apparent. In addition to Germany, there was also a great deal of hostility towards Jews in other European countries. At present, there is not much that the Jews can do about it, and at most they will move to the United States, which has the least hostile behavior.

But if you want to transfer, how can it be as easy as you say, and what should be done with the assets. And many ordinary Jews have little savings at all, and they, like ordinary people of other peoples, need to work to support their families.

And the United States is not a paradise, although the Jewish power in the United States is not bad, but the Anglo-Saxons who hold power in the United States do not have much kindness towards the Jews. In addition to the British, Germans are the largest ethnic group in the United States, and Jews play more of a steward or accounting role in American society.

Therefore, American Jews, although relatively rich, cannot give much help in supporting the establishment of a Palestinian state. Unless the United States moves out of isolationism and needs to use Jews, then American Jews can take advantage of the situation to gain some benefits.

That's why Eder's condition appealed to Ben Gurion. At present, if the Jews want to be restored to Palestine, they must have the support of the major European countries. Although the most important thing is the UK, but other countries they cannot give up. Among other things, the mere provision of weapons to the Arabs would make the Jews uncomfortable. Because the Jews are demographically inferior to the Arabs, it is simply impossible to compare.

So Ben Gurion felt that the stakes were so high that it had to be discussed. "Your Majesty, this matter needs to be discussed by our council, and we can't give a direct answer now."

"It's okay, I can wait for your news."

Sure enough, when Ben Gurion returned to his lodgings and told the rest of the entourage what Eder had said, there was a chorus of cheers. Ben Gurion informed the other members of the Council of Eder's request, and after a series of discussions, the Jewish Council decided to accede to Eder's request.

As for doing Einstein's work, it wasn't too difficult for the Jewish Council.

So after a bit of haggling, an agreement was reached on Romania and the Jews.

Romania will provide $10 million worth of weapons to Jews in Palestine, and the Romanian military academy will provide 40 places for Jews each year. For this, Zionist will pay $20 million for this.

In addition, Romania would pledge not to persecute Jews and would also receive Jewish refugees, while Zionist would provide $100 per person for services such as food and shelter provided by Romania.

In addition to bringing Albert Einstein to Romania to teach and do research, the Zionist organization will also mobilize other Jewish scientists to serve Romania.

In addition, when the Jews were founded, Romania would be the first to recognize them.

And the signing of this agreement provides a shelter for Jews in the future. When the persecution of Jews began in Germany, a large number of Jews came to Romania through various channels. Not only have they helped Romania to improve its scientific and industrial capabilities, but they have also helped Romania improve its artistic and other aspects.

Unbeknownst to Eder, of course, this agreement did not only bring Einstein to Romania. In addition, Jewish scientists such as Edward Taylor were persuaded by the Zionist Organization to come to Romania and make great achievements in Romanian nuclear research.
