Since it was a dilemma, Qin Zhiyuan no longer wasted his brain cells, but handed over this matter to Lu Zhengxiang to deal with. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Lu Zhengxiang is Lan Fang's prime minister, and he is in the first position in Lan Fang's official echelon, so he is naturally qualified to deal with this matter.

The signing of the "Boundary Demarcation Treaty" marked the settlement of the sovereignty issue between Lan Fang and the coalition government, and it was a hidden danger for Lan Fang, regardless of whether Lan Fang participated in the war against the Bolsheviks or not, Qin Zhiyuan was in a good mood.

In mid-May, Qin Zhiyuan's patent finally arrived in Paris.

At the Paris railway station, Qin Zhiyuan and his entourage were once again warmly welcomed by the Paris government.

Needless to say, how good the relationship between Lan Fang and France is, it can be seen from the battle to welcome Qin Zhiyuan, not only French President Paul Eugène Louis de Charmer and Prime Minister Alexandre Millerand were both present, but many familiar faces of Qin Zhiyuan also appeared at the train station.

Qin Zhiyuan's brother-in-law Pierre, Bastian's brother, the current French army's logistics minister Bruno Garcia, the former president and current congressman Raymond Poincaré, and even Foch's former chief of staff, Maxim Weygand, were all present.

When old friends saw each other, they naturally had some intimacy, so the dinner party that day was very pleasant, and Qin Zhiyuan returned drunk again.

When he woke up in the morning, Qin Zhiyuan was already in the Black Swan Castle.

At present, the entire Boulogne Forest belongs to Qin Zhiyuan, and Qin Zhiyuan, including the Black Swan Castle, bought all of this place as the base of the Lanfang Foreign Legion in France.

When Qin Zhiyuan came to Paris, he naturally dominated the Black Swan Castle.

As it was two years ago, the familiar white ceiling, the windows were open, the sound of birdsong came in from the window, and the tip of the nose lingered with the fresh, slightly cool air that was unique to the forest.

His head was really a little dizzy, Qin Zhiyuan felt his head groggy, and he staggered up from the bed a little.

"Get up, wait a minute, drink saliva and sober up first." Mi Xia sat in the rocking chair by the window, and when she saw Qin Zhiyuan get up, she immediately brought cold boiled water.

"Thanks, I'm so thirsty." Qin Zhiyuan took it and drank it all, and did not forget to send his thanks.

"Pierre is here, and Lily is with him in the study." Misha still did not forget the duties of the "secretary".

"Lily? Why not Ferdinand? Qin Zhiyuan said and turned to wash.

"Not yet, you were all the same yesterday, very drunk." Mi Xia subconsciously supported Qin Zhiyuan.

"Poof—it was crazy yesterday." Qin Zhiyuan blamed himself.

Yesterday's banquet was held at the Elysee Palace, the official residence of the president, and Qin Zhiyuan was able to stay calm in the first half, but with the arrival of an old friend from the military department, the scene gradually got out of control.

"It's better to drink less and pay attention to your body." There was helpless distress in Misha's words.

"Thank you—" Qin Zhiyuan patted Mi Xia's hand on his arm, still with sweet gratitude in his heart.

Half an hour later, Qin Zhiyuan, who had finished washing, appeared in front of Pierre.

With the relationship between Qin Zhiyuan and Pierre, the two of them didn't need to say too much to each other, and soon got to the point.

"There are now six seats in Corsica, and if you add the seats on my side, we have a total of twenty-five in the parliament, which is not the number one force in the parliament, but it is enough to be ignored, and twenty-five seats have reached the legal standard to form a parliamentary party." Pierre mentioned that he was still satisfied with his career.

"It's only a year to get you twenty-five seats, which is pretty good." Qin Zhiyuan praised from the bottom of his heart.

France's National Assembly has about 550 seats, and although 25 seats can be used to establish a political party, it still needs to work hard to become the largest party.

But this is really good for Pierre, a newcomer to politics.

"There's your contribution here, and it's a pretty big share." Pierre did not forget what Qin Zhiyuan left behind when he returned to Lanfang.

When Qin Zhiyuan returned to Lanfang, he left Pierre a part of the shares of the "LLL" company, and at the same time he also had the help of the Corsican parliamentarians. Both of these things are very useful, and the dividends of the "LLL" company can ensure that Pierre has no financial problems, so that Pierre has enough financial resources to work together, and at the same time ensure that Pierre does not make mistakes in this financial aspect. As for the Corsican parliamentarians, it was very important, and when Pierre was not yet able to make his voice heard in parliament, the Corsican parliamentarians acted as Pierre's spokesmen in parliament.

"It's mainly your efforts, if it's not suitable for this, no matter how much I give you, it won't help." Qin Zhiyuan did not take credit, and took the initiative to raise a glass.

When he was in the Foreign Legion, Pierre did not show military talent beyond ordinary people, which is normal, no one stipulates that the son of a marshal must be a marshal, so Qin Zhiyuan supports Pierre's development in the political arena.

Even Qin Zhiyuan didn't expect that in just over a year, Pierre would give Qin Zhiyuan such a big surprise.

Lan Fang wants to ensure good relations with France, the best way is to cultivate a pro-Lan Fang political force in the French government, Qin Zhiyuan originally wanted to invest in Raymond Poincaré, so he will give Raymond Poincaré a part of the shares of Union Oil, but now it seems that Pierre is more suitable to take on this role than Raymond Poincaré, so Qin Zhiyuan has now considered increasing investment in Pierre.

"Tell me, what do you need now?" Qin Zhiyuan was generous and let Pierre make conditions.

"Political achievements, I need political achievements, maybe you don't care very much, I am now the mayor of Amiens, and I am responsible for Amiens, you shouldn't forget there, right?" Pierre wasn't embarrassed when he talked about his achievements.

There's nothing embarrassing about wanting support, it's better to say it generously, if Qin Zhiyuan provides Pierre with enough support, Pierre still hasn't achieved anything, then Pierre should feel embarrassed.

"Of course not, Amiens was my first stop in Europe, strictly speaking, it was from Amiens that I really joined that war, and I will not forget Amiens." Qin Zhiyuan does have feelings for Amiens.

"It's good that you haven't forgotten, the situation in Amiens is not very good now, Amiens's original pillar industry is wine, and a large number of wines are exported to the United States, as you know, the United States now has a ban on alcohol, so the original sales are basically completely cut off, the situation in Amiens is not good, what good can you do?" When it comes to the economy, Pierre still has to turn to Qin Zhiyuan for help.

"Grapes aren't just made into wine, can't they be made into raisins or something?" For grape plantations, Qin Zhiyuan really doesn't know much about them.

"No matter what you do, it takes time to find a market, and the problem now is that there is no professional sales team, or because of the general economic downturn, it is not easy to find a market." Pierre was indeed worried.

In the current situation in Europe, it is true that the landlords' families have no surplus grain.

Under normal circumstances, because of the German reparations, France's finances should be able to get by, but Germany has run out of oil in the world war and is really unable to pay the reparations, so France did not get what it deserved, or what it gained was far from enough to compensate for the losses suffered in the war.

Add to that the large number of demobilized soldiers who have been discharged from the army, the unemployed who have been laid off because of the closure of their businesses, and even the homeless who have become homeless, these are all social problems that need to be solved urgently.

Without outside help, the process of self-recovery in Amiens alone is expected to continue for many years, and Pierre clearly does not want to linger in the position of mayor of Amiens for too long.

"If necessary, I can invest in Amiens, whether it's infrastructure or direct investment in industry, depending on what you need." Qin Zhiyuan promised that whether it was out of his feelings for Amiens or from Qin Zhiyuan and Pierre's personal relationship, Qin Zhiyuan would not stand idly by.

"That's great, I've got a list here where you can see what you want to do." Pierre was prepared and immediately took out a document from his briefcase.

"I feel like I've been fooled." Although Qin Zhiyuan said that he was unhappy, he still took the document.

On the documents are more than a dozen projects that have been approved by the municipality of Amiens, including hydroelectric power stations, the construction of railways and roads, as well as two factories that have no one to take over, and several vineyards that are seriously losing money.

Qin Zhiyuan made a simple estimate, and estimated that the initial investment was 10 million francs, so he didn't hesitate much: "Okay, put this here first, I will let my financial staff review it, if there are no problems, I can take over these." ”

10 million francs, it sounds like a lot, but in fact, for the current Qin Zhiyuan, it is not much of a deal, Qin Zhiyuan has a large number of high-quality industries in his hands, and the profit of United Oil alone is millions of dollars a day, so it is not difficult to come up with 10 million francs.

"Haha, that's great, I knew that as long as I found you, I would definitely solve the problem." Pierre seemed to have finally let go of the boulder in his heart and smiled happily.

"No problem, your business is mine." At this time, Qin Zhiyuan must speak openly.

"Alright then, with that out of the way, let's talk about Lily." Pierre's voice suddenly turned cold after he had laughed.

"What?" Qin Zhiyuan was a little confused, and as soon as the words came out, he was punched heavily in the face.

"You bastard, don't talk about stealing food behind Lily's back, and you have to get it home, do you think that there is no one in the Foch family anymore?" Pierre cursed in his mouth, and greeted Qin Zhiyuan's face with a combination of punches.

"Pierre, listen to me!" Facing the angry uncle, Qin Zhiyuan was really a little weak-hearted.

"Don't explain, just give me a beating! Don't say anything about provoking Lily, you still dare to provoke Misha, I'm going to beat you to death today! In a fit of rage, Pierre leaked his mouth and revealed his true purpose.

Pierre was also once one of Misha's suitors.
