Not surprisingly, Clemenceau happily agreed to Qin Zhiyuan's resignation.

Qin Zhiyuan resigned from the post of commander-in-chief of the Foreign Legion, while also retaining the post of governor of the New Baku Special Administrative Region, a position that Qin Zhiyuan could not give up.

Qin Zhiyuan, who resigned, did not return to Paris immediately, but went to the island of Djerba in the Bay of Gabès.

The Chinese instructors remained in Sidi Bel Abbas and could not leave until the training of the soldiers had been completed.

On the island of Djerba, a large oil refinery is under construction, where oil from Nova Baku will be transported for refining before being sent to mainland France.

The old Renault has been staying in Djerba during this time, and now the new Baku is the lifeblood of the old Renault, and the old Renault will not allow any accidents.

Therefore, after seeing Qin Zhiyuan, Old Renault complained: "Did those damn guys catch it?" I'm going to hang them all in Gabez, so that everyone knows what will happen to me against me. ”

Old Renault was referring to the guys who attacked the construction workers, those people were like ghosts, and if they were not caught, they would always be a shadow over the heads of the construction team, and there would be a certain demonstration effect, and maybe the crowd would follow suit.

"I'm looking for it, I already have some clues, wait a little longer." Qin Zhiyuan would not let them go.

In the aftermath of the attack, Qin ordered Hu Tingfeng and Zhou Hongguang to form a joint investigation team to track down the perpetrators. Although those people came and went, they still left a lot of clues, and for now, all the clues point to the Prince of Basel in Gabes.

The Prince of Basel is a member of the royal family of Tu Nis, and his fief is in Gabès, and the new Baku corridor planned by the French government is almost entirely on the territory of the Prince of Basel, so he is considered a direct relative.

The French government has given the Prince of Basel a lot of compensation for the expropriation of the land of the Prince of Basel, of course, all of this money is from the old Renault, and the French government is only responsible for matchmaking, and not a single son.

Old Renault was very generous, and under normal circumstances, the Prince of Basel should be satisfied, but compared to the oil of New Baku, those compensation payments are not worth mentioning.

The wealth is moving, and the Prince of Basel also wants to insert a lever.

"To speed up the action, we have now drilled more than 20 oil wells, and the production is increasing every day, but because of the limited capacity, it can only be piled up in New Baku, God, I don't dare to think about it, my heart is bleeding when I think about it." Old Renault looked up at the sun in the sky, his expression was very worried: "Qin, are you sure that the oil will not evaporate?" ”

"God, Louis, can you please stop being so whimsical." Qin Zhiyuan was helpless, shaking his head and walking into Old Renault's office.

The old Renault's office is luxuriously decorated, but it has nothing to do with North Africa, if you have to say that it has to do with it, then the carpet on the floor and the tapestries on the wall are very North African, except for that, the furnishings in the office are no different from the old Renault's office in Paris.

Qin Zhiyuan was like being at home with Old Renault, and he didn't need to be greeted by Old Renault, Qin Zhiyuan poured a glass of wine in front of the wine cabinet by himself, and then sat on the sofa and pondered.

It is indeed necessary to ponder that although Qin Zhiyuan did not fully achieve his goal in Sidi Bel Abbas, the reaction of all parties to Qin Zhiyuan's promotion of "religious freedom" was originally one of the experiences.

Qin Zhiyuan now has to reflect on why this situation occurs, and if he uses relatively moderate means, then the effect will be better.

"You're used to having nothing to drink now?" Old Renault looked at Qin Zhiyuan and joked.

After dealing with each other for such a long time, Old Renault was sure that Qin Zhiyuan had a lot of self-control. For example, when it comes to drinking, although Qin Zhiyuan doesn't drink at all, he basically doesn't drink too much, which means that he tastes it lightly, and Old Renault has almost never seen Qin Zhiyuan take the initiative to drink.

"No, I need to look at something from a different angle." Qin Zhiyuan just held the wine, watching the wine ripple back and forth in the cup, smelling a little more ingredients.

"There's nothing to think about, you're not wrong on this issue, it's just not up to you. Do you think that others have not noticed those problems? No, everyone knows, but as long as no one brings it up, everyone pretends not to know. "Old Renault is indeed cunning.

"Why didn't you tell me before?" Qin Zhiyuan was dissatisfied, if someone told Qin Zhiyuan the truth at that time, then Qin Zhiyuan might have taken another way.

Qin Zhiyuan has no political experience after all, maybe he knows the future direction of the world, but when it comes to actual government affairs, mistakes are inevitable.

"What are you asking me to tell you? Even if I told you, would you listen? Old Renault was dismissive.

"Do you think I'm an arbitrary?" Qin Zhiyuan considers himself very democratic.

"Don't you feel like you're not?" Old Renault's view is completely different from Qin Zhiyuan's.

"!" Qin Zhiyuan rarely burst into foul language.

"Actually, you were wrong from the beginning, you shouldn't have gone into battle shirtless. If I were you, I'd put that Gerard Esshara in the forefront, so if there's a misdirection, you just need to change someone, and you can still have a reputation for setting things right in time, how nice is that? "Old Renault had a lot of ideas.

In fact, this is what the old Renault has always done.

According to the strength of old Renault, he can enter the French Congress, even if he can't be the president and prime minister, at least he can be a member of parliament. But the elder Renault never meant to go into politics, he was always behind the scenes, looking for his own agent to speak for him in Congress.

"That's a good idea, but it's harder to get Gerald Eshara to enforce religious freedom than to kill him." Qin Zhiyuan did not think that it was possible to cooperate with Gerard Aisara.

"You can let him choose, isn't he asking for a government? Take this as one of the conditions and let him choose for himself. If you want to form a government, you have to agree to religious freedom, and if you don't, you don't want to have a government. Old Renault understated and turned passive into active while talking and laughing.

"Really, your behavior is called an afterthought......" Qin Zhiyuan despised Old Renault's clumsy behavior.

After listening to Qin Zhiyuan's explanation of the rules of Chinese chess, the old Renault immediately explained: "You see, we are like flags on a chessboard, we always have to abide by certain rules in order to be neat and orderly, if the chess pieces on the chessboard are all cars, then this game is too boring." ”

For the old Renault, there are not many things that can be called a challenge in this world, as far as businessmen are concerned, the old Renault has almost done everything a businessman can do, although the old Renault is not involved in the military and political circles, but he has never lacked influence in the military and political circles, which is the performance of the old Renault's personal wisdom.

Compared with the old Renault, the path Qin Zhiyuan chose was much more difficult.

Of course, Qin Zhiyuan's path is also more challenging, and if he can really do it, then he will have a more sufficient sense of accomplishment than the old Renault.

"The rules are set by people, and some people can only live in the rules made by others for the rest of their lives, and I want to be the one who makes the rules." Qin Zhiyuan didn't mean to belittle Old Renault, everyone has their own ambitions.

"Make the rules......" Old Renault thought thoughtfully, Qin Zhiyuan's words seemed to open a door for Old Renault that had never been opened, and Old Renault saw a wider sky.

"Tell me what you think." Old Renault was very interested in Qin Zhiyuan's thoughts.

"What do you think? What else can I think about, let the people I love live happier, and let the people who love me live happier. "Qin Zhiyuan has reservations.

"Your definition is too broad." Old Renault was dissatisfied.

"There's no way to be more specific, Luis, have you ever had an ideal?" Qin Zhiyuan asked rhetorically.

"Of course, when I first saw a car when I was 19 years old, I wanted to make a car that was good in the world. By now, my Renault is not the most in the world, but it is the best in the world. "Old Renault was full of pride.

As a car manufacturer, the old Renault did a really good job, of course, because of the presence of Ford, Renault does not look so good in the world, but it is indeed the best in Europe.

"And now? Do you still have purpose in life? "Qin Zhiyuan is tireless in destroying people.

"And how many things are worth my goal for......" Old Renault smiled wryly.

Standing in the position of old Renault, the peak of life, lonely as snow.

"Money, you've earned enough; career, basically reached the peak; It looks like your life has been glorious to the extreme. But Luis, you're only 40 years old, how will you spend the rest of your life? Although you have an endless amount of money to spend right now, do you feel happy in the dead of night? Qin Zhiyuan thought a little too much.

"Of course happy! One of the elements of happiness is to know how to be content and grateful, and compared to most people's lives, there is no reason why I should not be happy. Old Renault's tone was not so sure, and his eyes had dimmed.

"You are obviously not as happy as you seem, otherwise you should be in Paris now, not in Djerba, and you are not also looking for a new challenge?" Qin Zhiyuan showed no mercy.

"That's right, I'm just going for a new challenge, I'm tired of living the same, and so are you. I know we're the same kind of people. Old Renault raised his glass.

"Of course! Otherwise we wouldn't be sitting together. Qin Zhiyuan handed over the cup and let the old Renault refill it: "If I say that my ideal is to make all mankind happy, it is undoubtedly beyond my strength. If it is too broad to make my people happy, then I will simply not disappoint those who have expectations of me. People always have to be idealistic, and I don't want to sleep on the credit book. ”

"I also have expectations for you, so Qin, don't let me down." Old Renault smiled a little forcefully.

Hope is a seed that, as long as it is planted, will sprout one day.
