Lanling Island, Pandora Hotel. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

This is the largest and most luxurious casino on Lanling Island, and it is also the best hotel, and the Lanfang government is unique in setting up the meeting place here.

Nominally, the meeting was to discuss the situation in Siam, and the protagonists were Lan Fang, Britain, and France, with the United States, Germany, Italy, Belarus and other countries present, and the only thing missing was the representative of Siam, the country concerned.

Rama VI's entire family has died in the war, and the whole of Siam can't even find a representative of public opinion in the general sense, in fact, there are still a lot of candidates, but the representatives found by Lan Fang are not recognized by Britain and France, and the same reason, the representatives of the British and the French have not been approved, and there have been Siamese protests outside the hotel, but those people are all drinking tea in the small dark room of the National Security Bureau of Lan Fang without exception, so it has led to this ironic situation.

It may seem like a concentrated manifestation of imperialist hegemony, but in fact this is the norm at international conferences at the beginning of the 20th century, and the meaning of this phrase is vividly embodied.

The process of the meeting was very discordant, on the first day the representatives of the British government had a fierce attitude, Lan Fang and France wore the same pants, naturally did not give an inch to the British, and then the fierce rhetoric escalated into scolding, and then turned into smashing cups, and then developed into taking notepads to attack each other, the whole venue was full of miasma, it is hard to imagine that this is a model of "friendship" between several major powers in the world at that time.

There is a reason for the fierce attitude of the British, in fact, at the beginning of the meeting, Lan Fang and France reached a consensus, unanimously agreed to implement a condominium with Siam, and the specific sphere of influence was divided according to the current situation.

This distribution was originally beneficial to the British, but given the current tensions in the British-occupied territories, the British were very unhappy with this distribution.

In the 10 provinces of northern Siam occupied by the British, revolts broke out one after another, and hundreds of forces, large and small, under the banners of the "Free Army" and the "Autonomous Alliance", appeared on the stage, making the British anxious about one side and the other.

The British can come up with the answer even if they think about it with their butts, these hundreds of forces may not be supported by the Lanfang people and the French, but the largest of them must have nothing to do with the French and the Lanfang people, such as the Chiang Mai Free Army that has just captured the city of Chiang Mai, if there is no support from the Lanfang people and the French behind it, it can make people laugh out of their teeth.

Judging from the performance in the world war, the British were indeed inferior to the Lanfang and the French, but that was in the face of Germany, and if they faced the rabble composed of those natives, the British still had enough strength. But the current situation is that the British are losing and retreating in various battlefields, and they have not shown the slightest competitiveness, let alone those colonial armies, even if they are all British, have not taken much advantage of the natives, which is really abnormal.

The first army of the British into Siam was indeed a colonial army drawn from India, but as the resistance forces in northern Siam became more and more powerful, the British transferred two divisions from Liabi to stabilize the situation in northern Siam, but this is useless, the terrain in northern Siam is complex, almost all mountainous areas, if those British troops are cleared on a large scale, those resistance forces will disappear in the mountains without a trace, if those British troops are not enough, those resistance forces will take the opportunity to sneak attack, This was a real bewilderment for the British, who had never encountered such a complicated situation in any other part of the world.

Under this premise, it was absolutely impossible for the British to accept the offer of the Lanfonse and the French. From the very beginning of their recollections, the British demanded that Lan Fong and the French withdraw their men from northern Siam, but Lan Fong and the French naturally resolutely refused to admit it, so the meeting reached an impasse.

At the end of the day's meeting, Lanfang's representative Huang Bohan hosted a banquet for the French representative, Louis Herbert Leoté, at his residence.

Lanling Island is a new tourist destination, and it is not easy to get a house here, even if William II is a status, he has been renting the Pandora Hotel. However, Huang Bohan has a special identity after all, Huang Bohan has a separate courtyard on Lanling Island, although it is not as spacious as the house in Coconut City, but it is not a problem to entertain guests.

Huang Bohan is one of the richest people in the world, and the decoration of the annex is naturally beautiful, because of the national structure of Lanfang, the decoration of the entire annex is a combination of Chinese and Western, including the restaurant, there are both traditional Chinese restaurants and Western restaurants full of European style.

Leoté was French, so the banquet was held in a western restaurant.

As soon as he entered the banquet hall, Leotai's eyes were attracted by the murals on the wall, Leotai was also a high-ranking person, and he was also familiar with various painting masters, so he could naturally see at a glance that the paintings on the walls of the dining room were actually the works of Dracovaro.

Don't know who Dracovarro is?

It doesn't matter, you know "Freedom Leads the People", it is this masterpiece.

Hanging in Huang Bohan's restaurant can't be "Liberty Leading the People", but in terms of painting techniques and structural layout, it is also a work from Dracovalro's mature period, which should be displayed in a museum rather than at a table.

If it was a public occasion, Leotera could treat it as if he didn't see it, so he fooled the past, but in a private setting, he was already familiar with Huang Bohan during the meeting, and the two of them cooperated tacitly, and Leothai spoke more casually.

"It's desperate, I know you're a rich guy, but you don't need to prove it to me in this way." Leothay's half-truths complained.

"I don't mean to show off, just because it's better-looking, if it can still get into your eyes, you can go to my treasury and pick a few later, you must know that it is because you came here that this is hung up." Huang Bohan's way of showing off is unique.

Listening to Huang Bohan's meaning, if it weren't for a Frenchman's visit, Dracovalro's painting would not have qualified to hang here, which made Leotey immediately feel his blood surge, and he took several deep breaths in a row to suppress the urge to explode.

"Then you're welcome!" Leothai will not die to save face, not everyone can take advantage of Huang Bohan, and not everyone can get the opportunity to enter Huang Bohan's private collection room to choose at will: "It's hard to imagine how many good things in our country have been obtained by you Lanfang, I think you should return them, just like we once did." ”

There is no doubt that the world war caused serious damage to France, and countless works of art were reduced to ashes in the flames of war, which was not only a disaster for the French, but also a catastrophe for all human civilization.

Leotey's "return" refers to the batch of artworks returned to Lanfang by the French government at the end of the World War, when the war was in a critical period, and the importance of the Foreign Legion became more and more prominent.

Qin Zhiyuan is not in vain, strictly speaking, this is an exchange behavior, Qin Zhiyuan also gave the Louvre a lot of acquired artworks, in between, the old Renault played a great role, after all, the exchange value is not equal.

"There's no point in arguing about a real question, all my collections were exchanged by me for real money, and you have to return them all to you with a simple sentence now, so what do I get?" Huang Bohan was noncommittal.

Hearing Huang Bohan's words, Leothai immediately felt that he couldn't breathe. To be honest, Leothai really can't think of anything that can make Huang Bohan tempted, when it comes to money, people are rich and rival the country, and he was once one of the richest people in the world, when it comes to fame, Huang Bohan's avatar has been printed on the banknote, how else can he improve his fame?

"Friendship, friendship from France." Leothai finally found an excuse.

"Hehe, I don't need it personally, it's Lan Fang who needs French friendship, and France won't change its attitude towards the blue side because of my personal behavior." Huang Bohan has no fear.

Even if Leotai is the smartest colonial soldier in France, he is still slightly inferior to Huang Bohan, a profiteer, and dealing with someone like Leotai is a piece of cake for Huang Bohan.

"Well, let's talk about who Dracovarro is today, let's talk about what you think of the British's proposal?" Huang Bohan stopped teasing Leotai and directly switched the topic back to normal mode.

At today's meeting, the British demanded that the Americans and Belarusians also have a say, but Huang Bohan and Leothai did not agree to it at the first time.

Lan Fang and the French were in cahoots, and the British clearly felt alone at the meeting, so the British wanted to expand the scope and find a few people who could help them at the meeting. The relationship between the Americans and the British has always been a united front, and Belarus exists because of the support of the British, so the British want to draw the Americans and Belarus into the "battlefield".

"It's useless, they can ask for help, and so can we." Leothai didn't pay much attention to it.

"Tomorrow the representatives of the Republic of China and the coalition government will come, and they will also appear at the venue, what about you? Is there a suitable candidate? "Huang Bohan also has countermeasures, and the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth.

The three gangs of a good man are all countries that are evolving into "big hooligans", there must be a few sticks and hammers, the Republic of China is Lan Fang's best natural ally, and the coalition government now has to buy rations from Lan Fang, so Lan Fang is what he says.

"Of course, I've already sent a telegram, and news will come soon." Leothay, of course, was not weak.

In fact, only Leotey knew in his heart that in Europe, if the object of confrontation was the British, France really could not find a few allies.
