……
The large amount of genetic farms and pastures made the Nord Principality completely self-sufficient and even able to be sold, and Joseph deliberately formed an agricultural company, which was generally integrated with the banks under the Nord Royal Group.
Because of the large number of pastures, the slaughterhouses of Nord are also getting busy, and milk is one of the benefits of Nord citizens, but all Nord citizens receive two kilograms of milk per day, and non-citizens with labor contracts receive one kilogram.
This kind of welfare has raised Joseph's reputation to a new level, and even the mouths of labor workers can hear respect for Joseph from time to time, Nord's economy is still relatively weak, but in terms of popular recognition, it should be the first in Europe.
The purpose of the vineyard is to build a winery, in Europe you can be a nobleman without money, you can not have a castle, but you must have a winery, and the status of the director of the winery is often much higher than that of the rich in other industries, because in the eyes of Europeans, the winery itself is a synonym for nobility and elegance.
Like other companies, the winery bears the name Nord Royale, but unfortunately the recipe is still being studied and the first quarter of the grapes have not yet been produced, and the reputation of the Nord Royal wine has not yet been established.
Audi company, 10 million tons of oil fields, this is something that the Principality of Nord can come up with, which has begun to emerge, and what Joseph did not expect is that with these two things, the European Coal and Steel Community issued an invitation to Joseph, which is something he never thought of anyway.
In fact, although Joseph was a little surprised, he was not too surprised, after all, at this time, the Duchy of Nord had begun to become a country that no country could ignore, so it was reasonable to invite.
Naturally, Joseph could not refuse such an invitation, so on February 13, 1981, James became a member of the European Coal and Steel Community Committee as Prime Minister of the Cabinet of the Principality of Nord.
Not long after Nord participated in the European Coal and Steel Community Committee, an invitation letter from the Moroccan royal family was placed in front of Joseph, and the sudden invitation made Joseph a little puzzled, so he couldn't help but convene the cabinet to discuss the reason.
Council of the Nord Palace:
"So, the Moroccan royal family is preparing to marry me?"
Joseph, who sat at the top, was a little surprised, not because of his own age, but because he never thought that one day Morocco would be interested in marrying him.
"That's right, but I don't recommend that Your Highness agree."
James nodded that Joseph's words were correct, but at the same time he objected to Joseph's agreement, in fact, he didn't need to explain the reason, and Joseph understood what he meant.
What the Ragnar family lacks now is connections, it is a European connection, Morocco is indeed not a small country, and the influence of the Moroccan royal family is not small, but this is not the best choice for the Ragnar family, the Danish royal family, the British royal family is the best choice for Joseph, if it is not suitable, even the Swedish royal family is stronger than the Moroccan royal family.
After all, Morocco's territory is in Africa, and the benefits that can be brought to the Principality of Nord are far less than those of the indigenous countries of Europe.
"You mean no?"
"It cannot be refused, but it cannot be accessed as such, preferably in an official form rather than in a private form of the Ragnar family."
It was originally just a simple matter, but now it was complicated by James's analysis, and Joseph, who was a little irritable, waved his hand and said, "I'll leave this matter to you!" How is the matter at the airport, is the budget out yet? ”
Joseph did not want to continue to talk about this matter, it happened that most of the cabinet members were here, and by the way asked about the airport, as the Duchy of Nord was improving its international status day by day, it was really inappropriate not to have an airport.
"It's mainly a matter of land, and the actual airport doesn't cost much ......"
"I'll settle the land, deal with this matter as soon as possible, and you can also discuss the separation of the royal treasury from the treasury as soon as possible, and I hope to see the results by June at the latest."
Before the Minister of Commerce Smith could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Joseph, and at the same time, he also told James about the treasury and the royal finances, and James did not dare to delay, and hurriedly nodded and agreed.
"Your Highness, the oil well has been built, and now the daily oil production is 800 tons, and representatives of the American and British royal families have come, Your Highness, you see ......"
As soon as James agreed, Smith on the side couldn't help but speak, talking about the sale of crude oil, Nord's demand for oil is not very large, so export is its only option.
"Price?"
"The price offered by American merchants is $30 per barrel higher, and the price of the British royal family is $29.3, but compared to selling to the United States, if it can be exchanged for British support......"
800 tons is 5,000 barrels, which means that the profit from selling to the United States in one day alone is $150.000, and it is self-evident what this money means for the continued construction of the Nord principality.
If the European Union had been formed and the Duchy of Nord was one of them, then Joseph would have sold the oil to Britain for even some compensation, because they were one, because it was in the best interests of the Duchy of Nord to befriend Britain. But now that the European Union has not yet been formed, the Nord Principality still needs to rely on the United States, and after hesitating Joseph can only choose the American side, this is not only a sale, but also a test of the Nord Principality by the United States.
Joseph's hesitation, James and the others also understood, seeing that Joseph had made a good decision, they didn't say much, Smith took note of Joseph's words, and his mind began to think about how to negotiate with American businessmen.
By this time, the meeting had almost ended, except for James who had been left behind by Joseph, and all the other cabinet members had left, and the conference hall fell silent for a while.
"I'm sorry, James!"
The inexplicable apology didn't make James wonder, because he knew it was an apology for his son, after all, the road was not as beautiful and easy to walk as it seemed.
"This is my home, Your Highness!"
James said something that fell silent in the conference room again, and after a long time, Joseph spoke: "Ten years, Andy will go to the cabinet in ten years." ”
This is a promise and a compensation, James smiled gratefully at Joseph, because he understood that even if Joseph did not explain the matter, it would continue, and the explanation was just a kind of respect for him.
The matter has been settled, and James naturally wants to leave, but when he was at the door, James suddenly stopped: "Your Highness, the marriage of the Ragnar family to Spain is not a good move. ”
Not a good move? Joseph understood what James meant, not because of the Spanish royal family, but because he should not let Agata marry, because everyone could see that this young guy had ambitions, and he would not always be under Joseph's control.
"The members of the Ragnar family left me with no choice, James."
The whispered muttering didn't know whether to explain to James or to explain his own actions, he was still soft-hearted, otherwise Sharma was the best choice.
Age? Is there an age in politics?
