Chapter 198: El's Plans
Al picked up the wine glass, sniffed it, took another sip, and exclaimed: "It is really a good wine, the taste is soft, luscious, and there is a faint fruity aroma, it is really superb." However, I still like to drink Huaxia's Erguotou, which is refreshing and strong. ”
Hearing this, Jiao Baiwan smiled, it seems that Al studied in Huaxia and learned not only knowledge, but also the living habits of many Chinese people. After drinking the red wine in the glass and relieving some of the confusion just now, Al sat down and resumed the topic just now.
"Mr. Jiao, how much do you know about the royal succession system in Mauria?"
Jiao Bai put down the goblet and shook his head, "I didn't know anything about this before, but I heard you say that I realized that there are so many princes in Mauria." ”
"If that's the case, then we'll have to start at the beginning," Al continued, "We have a king, but we have a king, but it's an elected government. Since the beginning of the last century, more than a dozen kings have been elected by popular vote. Unlike the kings of the European constitutional monarchies, who have no rights, our Mauria kings are the real heads of state, with great power in their hands, and they can decide almost everything in their own affairs. ”
"Then your king is no different from the presidents of those Western countries, why are you still called kings?" Hearing this, Jiao Bai was a little puzzled, so he asked casually.
"There are still differences, one is that there is a difference in the range of candidates, our king can only be born among many princes, and the other is that our king has a relatively long tenure, the shortest is ten years, and the longest one has been elected four times in a row and has been a king for a full forty years."
Jiao Bai nodded, he had a general understanding of the strange system of the country of Mauria, "You came to me, didn't you want to pull investment from me, help you bribe the people, and vote for you, right?" ”
"Of course not!" Al hurriedly denied it, and then explained to Jiao Bai: "I want to solicit investment from Mr. Jiao, but not to canvass for votes, it is too bad to do that, even if you become the king, you will be poked in the back." I want Mr. Jiao to come to Mauria to invest in industry, help our country develop its economy, and bring real benefits to the people. As long as Mr. Jiao's investment can bring benefits to the people of Mauria, everyone knows that Jiao is always my friend, and he came to invest at my invitation, and I think the people will vote for me more. If I can become a king, I will also work hard to develop Mauria better. ”
Jiao Bai fell into thought, it is not impossible to invest in Mauria, this country does not look at poverty, there are still a lot of good resources. Not to mention those gem deposits and the like, just extremely cheap human resources can develop a lot of labor-intensive enterprises. In addition, Mauria is a tropical region, across the equator line, the geographical location is extremely superior, is a good place to develop the aerospace industry.
Jiao Bai heard Du Ye, an astronaut, say in the last days that there is a space base in Qiongzhou Mansion next door to Songjiang Mansion, in which there are many space shuttles made by the Ming Dynasty before the end of the world, and there is also a supporting space shuttle factory next to the base, and the advanced equipment in it is also a full set. Jiao Bai had already made a plan, and when his strength improved a little more, he would go to Qiongzhou Mansion and move those ready-made space shuttles and manufacturing equipment back to Earth. These things are obviously not suitable in China, after all, the space shuttle is too advanced and too sensitive, and with a slight modification of the design, it can become a battlefield killer, once exposed, Jiao Bai will be checked for the water meter. In Mauria, there are no such problems. As for security, don't worry at all, with their own zombie engineers, no one can do anything about their factory in Mauria.
And don't forget, in Jiao Bai's personal space, there are also many satellites swept from the Sheshan Research Institute, and a small nuclear submarine, which are not knowing how to take them out. If a space base is built here in Mauria, then nothing will be a problem.
After pondering for a long time and weighing the pros and cons, Jiao Bai said: "I can come to Mauria to invest, but you must agree to some of my conditions, and in addition, the time for investment to land is not now." If you study in Huaxia, you should know that there is still a month before the Lunar New Year, and at that time, all the business of our Xingchen Group will be suspended, and I will also go home for the New Year, so this investment can only be said after the year. ”
Hearing that Jiao Bai agreed to invest in Mauria, Al immediately became excited, nodded again and again, and said: "There is no problem with time, I will continue to study in Huaxia, and I will not be able to get my doctoral diploma until next summer, as long as your investment can be landed before that, there will be no problem." Let's talk about your conditions, as long as it is not too excessive, I can agree, even if I can't be the master, I can also persuade my uncle to agree. Oh, I forgot to mention that my uncle is the current king, and we still have a good relationship. ”
Jiao Bai looked at Al's black face, a little surprised, he didn't expect that this guy who was not good-looking was still a high-level intellectual, and his education was much higher than his own.
"My condition is simple, which is not to limit the scope of our company's business. Of course, you can rest assured that we will never touch illegal things, but some high-tech things are too advanced to be exposed before they are completed. I also need a piece of land to build a factory, it doesn't matter how desolate it is, but it needs to be large enough. ”
"I can make the decision on these two points, as long as you don't produce contraband, don't produce nuclear weapons, you can make other things as you like. Even if you Xingchen Group build a rocket to go to the moon to see, we will not interfere. We in MauriAsia are lagging behind, and we wish that all foreign companies would bring advanced technology to the country to help increase our productivity. ”
Al agreed without even thinking about it, in his opinion, these requirements of Jiao Bai were trivial, much lower than the conditions offered by other foreign businessmen. As for providing land, neither Jiao Bai nor Al saw it as a problem. Isn't it a necessary premise to provide building land to attract investment, even the Hilton Hotel where they are located, when they first settled in Mombasa, this land was provided for free. Compared with the hotel service industry like Hilton, which does not require a few locals, Jiao Bai is going to build a factory in Mauria, which can provide many more jobs, and is naturally more popular with the local government. Moreover, the land in Mauria is not valuable, even in Mombasa, which seems to be extremely prosperous, and the price of land is not as expensive as the land in the general small county town in mainland China.
Jiao Bai smiled mysteriously and said, "Maybe one day in the future, you can really go to the moon." ”
