732 Sardinia

When Yang Deshan regained the Mobil oil field, Qin Zhiyuan and Pierre were talking about Tuni Si. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Of course, the focus of Qin Zhiyuan and Pierre is not Yang Deshan, or even Tunis Si, Qin Zhiyuan just uses the example of Tuni Si and wants Pierre to illustrate it.

"If you look at Tunis, you think French rule over Tunis can last forever? Stop dreaming! You can think about it, if you don't get the Malagasy people away, then even if the Malagasy people are now subordinate to you, it will be temporary, because they are now in a weak position. If the Malagasy people grow stronger, they will certainly demand more, and if you do not satisfy them, it will become a reason for their revolution. Qin Zhiyuan still used the word "revolution", and now stands on the opposite side of "revolution".

Such Qin Zhiyuan, even if he returns to China to find PLA now, it is estimated that PLA will not accept Qin Zhiyuan.

"No wonder you were going to move the Corsicans out in the first place—" Pierre still sneered at in his words.

Qin Zhiyuan and Pierre are now on the castle tower of the Eagle's Nest, which is condescending and can overlook the entire Thunder City. Looking at Thunder City from Pierre's point of view, it is neatly planned and rigorously arranged, and it is indeed operated with a lot of thought.

But this kind of thing is like this, the better Qin Zhiyuan manages Thunder City, the more difficult it is for Pierre to give up.

It has not yet reached the level of "giving up", but just like Qin Zhiyuan said, no one can say in the future, maybe one day the "Corsicans" will make more demands and ask for more power, and then the French government will give it or not?

If it does, will it lead to a weaker and weaker presence in France for Corsicans?

If it is not given, will it be a reason for the Corsican revolution?

Either way, Pierre didn't want to see it.

"If keeping them is a hidden danger, why should they be kept?" Qin Zhiyuan did not deny it, and admitted it very happily: "You must remember that when the Foreign Legion arrived in Corsica, there was no Lanfang at that time, so we really built Corsica as our own home, and it must be perfect, and everyone hopes that their home can make them feel at ease." ”

"Bullshit, let's not talk about it here, let's go back to Madagascar, how can we get those Malagasy people away at the minimum cost?" Pierre decided to leave Corsica behind and not worry about the future.

Ever since he decided to go to Madagascar, Pierre has been asking Qin Zhiyuan for advice on how to turn Madagascar into a part of France. In this regard, Qin Zhiyuan can be said to be an expert, from Lanfang itself, to Northern Xinjiang, to Yingzhou and Goryeo, Qin Zhiyuan has expanded Lanfang's territory several times, and there must be a few unique skills.

"The minimum cost is a small bullet, but that way is too brutal to be used. The best way to do this is to immigrate, whether it's to Africa or to the Americas, it's a good way to do it, you can contract the work to the businessmen, and the businessmen have the means to get the job done. "Solving problems still depends on experts, and Qin Zhiyuan is not pedantic in one point.

Merchant is a very amazing profession, no matter how incredible it is, there is always a way for businessmen to accomplish it, as long as they see the profits, then businessmen will definitely give full play to their subjective initiative.

"Merchant—" Pierre hesitated.

If you want to use businessmen, then the news will inevitably spread out, which still has an impact on Pierre, although it will not be disgraced and dismissed, but it will definitely cause criticism from those sanctimonious "righteous gentlemen" in France, and Pierre's purpose in going to Madagascar is to accumulate prestige, so Pierre is still a little hesitant.

"Against the aborigines" this kind of thing, it is estimated that it is in France, where the concept of "freedom and equality" has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, that is not a problem at all, the Americans have not stopped persecuting the Indians so far, although the United States also claims to be "free and equal", but for those Indians, no one pities them.

The "freedom and equality" of the United States should also put a big question mark, not long ago, American women had just obtained the right to vote, and a large number of blacks did not have the right to vote at all.

"Don't worry, you only need to reveal a little bit of this meaning, and naturally there will be businessmen coming to you, and all you need to do is negotiate with those businessmen, and maybe you can get a lot of income." Qin Zhiyuan was also bitter for Pierre, and he was bent on leading Pierre to the evil road.

"You mean—" Pierre's eyes widened with incredulity.

"yes, that's what I meant." Qin Zhiyuan was honest and understood what Pierre was worried about.

For a long time, black people were sold as commodities, and at the beginning of the last century, a black man could sell for $800 in the United States, which was a means for many people to make a fortune at that time.

The United States abolished the Slavery Act in the Civil War, but in many states, the trade in blacks has not completely stopped, and in places like Brazil, blacks are still sold as commodities, but from the open to the underground, becoming a gray area.

Qin Zhiyuan's meaning was to let Pierre promote the slave trade, even if it was only secretly promoted, countless merchants who found business opportunities would come to the door. The nature of businessmen is to seek profits, as long as they find business opportunities, many businessmen will come over like sharks smelling fishy in the sea, and they can't get rid of them.

"That's crazy, that's crazy-" Pierre hadn't "degenerated" to the same extent as Qin Zhiyuan, shaking his head constantly, only repeating the sentence in his mouth.

"If you can't do it, you might as well leave it to the Foreign Legion to do, it's not very embarrassing, you should know that every year there are countless people who want to smuggle out, and you are helping them achieve their wishes." Qin Zhiyuan didn't feel how "degenerate" he was, and took the initiative to help the Foreign Legion work.

In fact, Qin Zhiyuan is secretly changing the concept, there are indeed many Africans who want to smuggle every year, but their first target is Europe, which has a higher standard of living, not the Americas, which is about the same level as them. And the smuggling of Africans is not to be slaves, but to go for a better life, which are completely different things, but Qin Zhiyuan deliberately confused them.

"If I give this to the Foreign Legion, will I be able to offset the cost of hiring the Foreign Legion?" Pierre was still motivated, standing at the national level, there was indeed not much "benevolence" to talk about, and it didn't take long for Pierre to convince himself.

"Of course you can, it is estimated that it will be exceeded, and it will be discounted to you when the time comes, and it can be regarded as supporting your construction in Madagascar." Qin Zhiyuan is generous, this is what Qin Zhiyuan wanted to do for Pierre.

Pierre wants to get the Malagasy people away, in order to win political prestige, by the way to develop the resources of the island of Madagascar, if you get rid of the people, but do not carry out any development, it will not help Pierre's prestige much, as long as Madagascar is built into another Corsica, can contribute to the French government, not become a burden to France, will more effectively enhance Pierre's prestige.

Speaking of which, it's almost the same exchange.

For the next few days, Pierre stayed in Paris to lobby for the position of governor of Madagascar, and with Pierre's energy, it was not too difficult, not to mention the help of old Renault, and Pierre quickly got his wish.

The old Renault is a man who aspires to become a mining tycoon, and the island of Madagascar is rich in resources, and the old Renault has long coveted the treasures under Madagascar, but because there is no chance, the old Renault has no further action.

Now that he has Pierre, an acquaintance, and Qin Zhiyuan is also involved, Old Renault almost did not hesitate and immediately decided to join.

As the top of the French business community, the old Renault represents the vane of Paris, don't look at the old Renault has now given up the Renault Group, but compared with before, the old Renault's net worth is more rich, and the means of accumulating wealth are more secretive, which is to make people envious and jealous.

With the addition of the old Renault, a group of people soon surrounded Pierre, these people are not ordinary people, each of them represents an interest group, has their own connections and resources, and now of course they will use the resources in their hands to serve Pierre, because their vision depends on Pierre to realize.

By the end of June, Pierre had been granted the post of Governor of Madagascar.

Qin Zhiyuan was not idle, during this time, Qin Zhiyuan visited Italy by the way, and met with the King of Italy and the Pope, among which the meeting with the Pope was particularly harmonious.

In the past few years since Lanfang was founded, Catholicism has developed rapidly in Asia, not only in the areas controlled by Lanfang, but also because of the special relationship between Qin Zhiyuan and Catholicism, Catholicism also has a large number of believers in the Republic of China, which makes the Pope very satisfied with Qin Zhiyuan, and the relationship between the two is almost to the point of burning yellow paper and cutting off the head of the chicken to tie the knot with Jin Lan.

Compared to the Pope, the meeting with the King of Italy was not so pleasant.

The reason is Corsica, which is so close to Sardinia, which became part of Italy half a century ago, and the voices of Sardinia, who are still demanding autonomous status, are still making it difficult for King Vittorio Emanuele III of Italy to sleep.

Vittorio Emanuele III believed that it was precisely because Corsica was secretly supporting the Sardinians that Sardinia was in turmoil, so the meeting between Qin Zhiyuan and Vittorio Emanuele III was not pleasant.

To be honest, Qin Zhiyuan really didn't do anything in Sardinia, Qin Zhiyuan's attention is now in Australia and North Africa, and he doesn't even care about the general election in the United States, and he doesn't pay attention to Sardinia at all.

However, after returning to Corsica from Italy, Qin Zhiyuan looked at the map and found that Corsica was too close to Sardinia, and the distance between the two islands was only 11 kilometers.

No wonder Vittorio Emanuele III thought so.
