ps: Thank you for the reward of 1 Proud Moon 1 and Arrogant Bird, and the new book list has fallen to the fifth place, and I ask the brothers to help me push it up! I haven't thought about the first and second, but I'm very satisfied to keep the third! (It's time to get off the list in a few days, and please let me keep a decent position!) Thanks!! ）

"Oliver has done his best, and the Dodge family persuaded several councillors that if it weren't for the help of these councillors, things wouldn't have been so easy to solve."

All in all, Joseph still has a good impression of the Dodge family, after all, compared to those families in the United States who are strongly hostile, the Dodge family can be said to be the only American family in the Duchy of Nord that can be trusted.

Talking about the passenger plane has arrived at the international airport of the Moroccan capital, and before it goes down, Joseph has already seen the honor guard and Aziz not far away, but Aziz does not look very good, and his appearance is a little decadent.

"Long time no see, my friend."

"Yes! Long time no see! ”

When Joseph got closer, he saw that Aziz's face was a little pale, but he didn't ask rashly, after all, there were too many media and reporters here, and after hugging vigorously, the two completed a series of etiquette in the honor guard's review.

After shaking hands with the Moroccan Prime Minister, ministers, and representatives of the generals of the air, army, and navy, Joseph walked towards the convoy under the leadership of the guards.

After getting into the car, Joseph recalled Aziz's appearance and the attitude of the cabinet members towards him, and said to Herman beside him: "It can be seen that the loss of the throne has hit him hard, and now Hassan II is still alive and maybe his life is still guaranteed, but once he ......"

Shaking his head, he didn't say what he said next, but how could Herman not know what Joseph was trying to say next? He nodded approvingly, the competition for the throne has always been so cruel, and fratricidal and sibling breakups are just the most common things.

"Who is most likely to inherit the throne now?"

"The second prince Ali, but now the third prince is also operating in secret, I heard that he has the support of the Alam Imam, who has a great influence in Morocco."

Herman was unaware that Joseph had met and knew Imam Alma, so he went out of his way to identify him and emphasize his influence in the Kingdom of Morocco.

Glancing meaningfully at Herman, Joseph suddenly said, "But the more this is the case, the less likely he is to get the throne, isn't it?" ”

Herman didn't know what to think, but his face didn't show it, and he replied very flatly: "Yes, the Moroccan royal family will not allow an heir with a religious background to appear." ”

"It's not the Moroccan royal family, it's the royal family of every monarchy, Foreign Minister Herman."

Because of Joseph's words, the atmosphere in the car was a little awkward for a moment, Herman didn't know how to speak, and Joseph was not suitable to continue.

Fortunately, the Moroccan government office soon appeared in front of them, and the professional smile of the Moroccan Prime Minister led the group towards the Moroccan government chamber.

The Kingdom of Morocco is a typical Middle Eastern style building, and the Grand Council is very splendid, after all, it is a monarchy that has been inherited for hundreds of years, and they have their own cultural foundation and heritage.

"Your Excellency, I'm sorry for our presumptuousness, but I'm sure you should know the exact reason."

"I'm sorry about the grain trade, but there's nothing we can do about it, not to hide it from His Majesty Joseph, and now part of Morocco has lost our control."

"What?"

Joseph really didn't expect the matter to be so serious, he didn't suspect that the Moroccan Prime Minister was lying, because there was no need, after all, it was a shameful family matter.

"Yes, several provinces in western Morocco have escaped from the control of the Kingdom of Morocco, and Crown Prince Aziz is a very infatuated person."

Joseph was a little puzzled, why did the Moroccan Prime Minister suddenly mention Aziz, and he could also point out that he was a very infatuated person, could it be that Aziz's woman had anything to do with this matter?

"Your Majesty, Crown Prince Aziz seems to have some intimate relationship with that cousin of King Hassan."

The opening of a Ministry of Internal Affairs guard next to him made Joseph completely understand the whole story, it turned out that Aziz lost the position of crown prince because of these circumstances, before Joseph and Herman only knew that King Hassan began to alienate Aziz but did not know what the reason, now it seems that Hassan II is ready to let Aziz give up something, but Aziz refused.

I have to say that the affairs of Morocco are very secretive, but this is normal, after all, there is no obvious war, and only some high-level people know about these things, Morocco is not a developed country, and it is relatively far away from Europe, and it is normal that the intelligence department of the Principality of Nord did not deliberately notice it.

"Your Majesty, if we can, we hope that the matter of the grain trade will drag on for a while, and we need to be ready for the possibility of war at all times."

What is needed for war, is money, equipment, Morocco is ready to buy from the United States can equip two divisions of armament, to deal with a war that may come at any time.

The Kingdom of Morocco is not a rich country, tens of millions of euros of grain are very important to the Kingdom of Morocco, but no matter how important it is, it is not as great as the loss of territory and defeat.

"I'm sorry, but the sudden cancellation of the grain order has an equally huge impact on the Principality of Nord, and if we can, we are willing to pay the Kingdom of Morocco on credit for the grain, and it will not be too late to repay it when the war is over."

Joseph's words really surprised the Moroccan Prime Minister a little, although the Moroccan royal family has a de jure advantage in this war, it is only five or five in terms of strength.

It is not that the Kingdom of Morocco is not short of food, but that they cannot afford it, and many international predators see that Morocco is not in a good situation, and few are willing to lend them very little.

Joseph had this confidence because he believed that the Moroccan royal family would achieve the ultimate victory. For the time being, regardless of the Morocco in the memory of the previous life, and if it fails, even if it fails, the loss of the Principality of Nord is only tens of millions of euros of food, but if you win the bet, the harvest is not only this.

"The Kingdom of Morocco remembers your friendship, Your Majesty Joseph!"

"We are friends, and Nord has a deep friendship with the Kingdom of Morocco, don't we?"

Selfless help was not the way of Joseph, who valued the Western Sahara desert region, which Morocco did not yet control and which was useless and unfortunate.

Nord is a country with a small population and small land, which is a natural disadvantage, and although the scientific research center has begun a glacier reclamation project, it is not known how long it will take for such results to come out. In the short term, if the Nord principality wants to get rid of its disadvantage, then the purchase of territory is the only viable way.

But the territory is the basic of a country, who will buy and sell? Western Sahara was a rare opportunity, as it was not only a useless desert land, but also a place over which Morocco had no control.

Unlike the land "leased" by France, once purchased, it would become the Duchy of Nord, and the Duchy of Nord would also be subject to the inherent limitation of its small size, although it would cost the Duchy of Nord a considerable amount of money.
