When Qin Zhiyuan left Djibouti, the two river basins had already begun to move. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

In fact, date palm has always been widespread in North Africa and the Middle East, but no one has ever paid attention to date palm trees before, and no one has paid attention to desertification control, so no one has consciously expanded the planting area of date palm trees.

Qin Zhiyuan's order was still very efficient, and even the king and queen set an example by planting date trees in Djibouti, and the entire western province took action in an instant.

In fact, afforestation is also a technical work, the key lies in the selection of trees, if the choice is not right, not only will not play the role of afforestation to improve the environment, but will further deteriorate the environment, which has been verified in the history of the Republic.

With the experience of the Republic, Qin Zhiyuan would not have made such a mistake.

First of all, in the selection of trees, the jujube trees selected by Qin Zhiyuan have extremely high economic value and ornamental value, which first makes the people have the desire to plant jujube trees, which is a very key factor. The date palm tree is a plant that has been proven to be promoted in the Middle East and North Africa, because the life cycle of the date palm tree is long, it can reach 150 years, so there will be no death after the previous planting, which is a very important factor, and the Republic has suffered a loss in this regard to prevent wind and sand.

The other is the power of the state.

It is necessary to take the national power as the leading, mobilize the whole society, and persist in the last 10 years and 8 years, so that we can see results.

Although afforestation is nominally a matter of the Western Province, it is also inseparable from other provinces, and the Imperial University needs to provide technical support, the Ministry of Industry needs to provide mechanical support, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs needs to plan, and if you want to do a good job, you need the joint efforts of the whole society.

In the end, the responsibility comes to the person, Qin Zhiyuan does not engage in the "big pot rice", ten trees per person This is a dead task, which must be completed, one less Qin Zhiyuan will ask Chen Kangjian is question, so that no one dares to slack off from top to bottom.

After receiving Qin Zhiyuan's order, Chen Kangjian divided the western province into four regions, namely the special economic belt around the Persian Gulf, the military administrative zone including Djibouti, Little Aden, and the Hanish Islands, the agricultural development zone in the original Iraq, and the western zone on the Mediterranean coast.

In fact, Lanfang's Western Province refers specifically to the western part of the Mediterranean coast, and only this piece of land is the land that Lanfang rightfully obedience to the hands of the French, and the rest of the land is just a "head".

As the person in charge of the western province, Chen Kangjian was only responsible for afforestation in the military district, and other regions were responsible for special personnel, so the burden on Chen Kangjian's shoulders was much lighter.

The weather in Djibouti was really hot, and after only two days in Djibouti, Qin Zhiyuan continued to leave for Egypt to prepare for a week-long "state visit" to Egypt.

It's really a "state affair", although Egypt's diplomatic power is still in the hands of the British, and Yang Deshan's invitation to the British has not been passed, but Qin Zhiyuan still has a way to secretly Chen Cang, Lan Fang's legation in Cairo has begun to build, Qin Zhiyuan set off to Cairo under the banner of inspecting the construction progress, which is indeed a bit cheeky, but the British have no way to refuse.

Although the legation is not at the level of an embassy, it is also nominally Lanfang's territory, and Qin Zhiyuan patrols his own territory, which makes the British unable to find a reason to oppose it.

Not everyone agrees with Qin Zhiyuan's itinerary, and Old Renault is one of them.

"You're a depravity! Egypt has nothing to see besides the Nile Delta? Is it worth your attention? Aren't you afraid that the British will find out about your relationship with Young? Old Renault's ridicule and contempt were undisguised.

Qin Zhiyuan is going to France for a vacation, and of course Old Renault wants to follow, so he will revisit the old place.

Lan Fang's current radio system has covered all warships, and the old Renault will not delay the operation of the command enterprise even if he is in Corsica. Old Renault is now beyond the category of ordinary businessmen, even if Old Renault is no longer Lanfang, Lanfang's enterprise will not have any problems, and will develop according to its own inertia.

Old Renault knows the relationship between Yang Deshan and Qin Zhiyuan, but Old Renault doesn't pay much attention to Yang Deshan, in Old Renault's opinion, Yang Deshan, the king of Egypt, is no different from those chieftains in North Africa, the difference may be that the territory managed by Yang Deshan is larger, but under the premise that the British are troubled by it, it is not wise for Qin Zhiyuan to rush to Egypt so much, which will expose the connection between Yang Deshan and Lan Fang.

"Don't be afraid, think about it, Egypt is located at the junction of Asia and Europe, and some time ago, the British made a blockade of the Gulf of Aden in order to cut off our connection with the Western Province, so it is suspicious that we do not have good relations with Egypt." After Qin Zhiyuan finished speaking, he felt a little unfinished, and the black belly attribute flared up again: "Even if the British find out that we are courting Egypt, what can the British do?" In order to ensure Yang Deshan's loyalty to the British Empire, the British must come up with more bargaining chips. ”

When it comes to actual interests, Qin Zhiyuan really doesn't pay much attention to face, and he can't eat face as a meal, and he can't do anything to save face and suffer crimes.

"And how are you going to stimulate the British? Be careful. Old Renault looked at the excitement and didn't think it was a big deal.

"Hehe, what do we have now? What do the British lack most right now? Take the money and smash it-" Qin Zhiyuan has confidence, when it comes to cash, Qin Zhiyuan really doesn't care about any country, whether it is the United Kingdom or the United States.

Qin Zhiyuan, who sold the national debt, now has sufficient cash flow and billions of cash in his hand to mobilize, although the British are a big family with a big business and a deep foundation, but the British government itself does not have any money, otherwise the British shipbuilding plan will not be delayed again and again, and so far only a shrunken version of the N3 battleship - Nelson-class battleship has been taken out. And the number is also limited, no longer like during the world war, when construction started, there were four or five, and only two were ready to be built.

Take the money and smash it -

As soon as Qin Zhiyuan finished speaking, Old Renault's face began to twitch, Old Renault is Qin Zhiyuan's biggest financier, Qin Zhiyuan wants to use money to smash Egypt, and Old Renault's wallet will inevitably be damaged.

"You don't have to worry, I'm not going to give cash, the technical output is the most cost-effective. Didn't the British still retain the right to defense in Egypt? Then let's not involve national defense, it's okay to help the Egyptians build one or two factories, such as building a tractor factory or something-" Qin Zhiyuan is ready to play big.

In fact, there is only a wall between the tractor and the tank, and the tractor factory can be turned into a tank factory after a simple transformation, of course, this "simple transformation" is difficult without technical support. This is not a problem for Lan Fang, as early as the period of the Foreign Legion, Qin Zhiyuan's Chinese workers learned to build tanks in the Renault factory, and now after a few years of development, they are even more familiar with the road.

"There is no way that the British will allow such a plant to appear." Old Renault was not optimistic about Qin Zhiyuan's plan.

Britain's control over the colonies is also reflected in the weapon system, take Egypt as an example, although the Egyptian army is equipped with tanks, but because Egypt does not have the ability to support production, the more advanced Egypt's equipment is, the greater Egypt's dependence on Britain.

"Then it's up to the British to come up with what they can offer." Qin Zhiyuan wants to break Egypt's dependence on Britain, the smaller Egypt's dependence on Britain, the more chips Yang Deshan will have in his hands, and the British will have to pay more in order to win over Yang Deshan.

In mid-September, the task force stopped and stopped all the way and finally arrived in Egypt.

Xie Rundong led the task force to escort Julie and Misha and others across the Suez Canal to Beirut in Lebanon, while Qin Zhiyuan took the Lanfang "Imperial Pearl" cruise ship to Cairo.

Well, Qin Zhiyuan is not very justifiable to go to Cairo, so just lose this face by yourself, there is no need to let Julie and Misha follow to suffer.

Lan Fang's legation in Coconut City is under construction, and according to the construction schedule, it will not be put into use until the year after tomorrow, so Gu Shaochuan and his new wife Huang Huilan are currently living in the Cairo Hotel, and after Qin Zhiyuan arrived in Cairo, the place to stay was also chosen in the Cairo Hotel.

In fact, according to Gu Shaochuan's treatment standards, it is not appropriate for Gu Shaochuan to live in a Cairo hotel for a long time, after all, the Cairo Hotel is the best hotel in Cairo, and the presidential suite is not cheap, and if you stay for a long time, not to mention that Gu Shaochuan can't afford to live, even the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Lanfang will feel pain.

But because of Huang Huilan's existence, all this is not a problem.

Huang Huilan is Huang Bohan's eldest daughter, and she is the most beloved daughter, for this pearl in the palm of her hand, Huang Bohan has always loved her, and there is naturally no problem with staying in a hotel or something.

Speaking of the marriage between Huang Huilan and Gu Shaochuan, this is because of the "Spanish flu" a few years ago.

Gu Shaochuan's former wife was Tang Baoyue, the beloved daughter of Tang Zhaoyi, Minister of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of China, and the combination of Gu Shaochuan and Tang Baoyue also made a lot of jokes, and later soon after Gu Shaochuan and Tang Baoyue got married, Tang Baoyue died of infection with the "Spanish flu", and then Gu Shaochuan met Huang Huilan, who had just lost her husband, so there was a combination of Gu Shaochuan and Huang Huilan.

Speaking of which, Huang Huilan is a little older than Qin Zhiyuan, but when she saw Qin Zhiyuan, Huang Huilan did not call "His Majesty the King" or anything according to general etiquette, but called her "uncle" when she opened her mouth, which really made Qin Zhiyuan a little ridiculous.
