What Cao Chuan didn't expect was that that night, Gaul, which had a distance advantage, invited him to a private dinner at the Elysée Palace.

"Cao, welcome to you!" The president of Gaul appeared to be enthusiastic.

Of course, I don't really know why I stayed in Gaul for almost a month, but as a president with ideals and aspirations, Mr. President's mind has come alive since the burden of the lighthouse state on the 13-nation alliance of Europa has disappeared.

"Restore the glory of the strongest country on the European continent!" He had a dream that countless pioneers had fallen before him, including the most formidable of all, Napoleon, had failed to unify this powerful but divided land.

And now, there was another opportunity in front of him, and he had to seize it.

After Mr. President's welcome, Cao Chuan entered the hall with Joan of Arc under his guidance, and they were greeted by a solemn and elaborate ceremony, each link was so ornamental, it was like a beautiful ballet, so that people were reluctant to interrupt.

"Is that the case in France today?" Joan of Arc silently looked around, the longer she stayed in this country, the more she lost her attachment to her special body, and became more relaxed and looked at the scene around her.

"Indeed, doesn't it feel a little outdated? But this can be regarded as cultural accumulation. Cao Chuan replied, "Anyway, it's still very interesting, isn't it?" ”

Joan of Arc nodded silently, and it wasn't long before they entered the banquet hall, where there were only a few Gallic elites who had been invited, and then they saw the chefs serving the beautiful dishes like a guard of honor in a military parade.

"Does the host want to eat Gallic national food? Do you need me to cook it for you? Seeing that Cao Chuan was already eating, Joan of Arc, who was hiding next to him, asked.

"It's whatever, anyway, let's relax today." Cao Chuan dissuaded.

"Cao, is this your daughter?" Mr. President, who was standing next to him, hesitated and asked, with kindness and benevolence on his face, as if an elder cares about his juniors, of course, it is indeed no problem in terms of age.

"No... Joan of Arc is my most important person. Cao Chuan replied calmly, but not so jokingly.

"Oh..."Mr. President didn't have any doubts about the name, after all, Joan of Arc's name was relatively common, and unless he knew that Cao Chuan had obtained Joan of Arc's bones, he would never associate it together.

"What a cute child..."Mr. President smiled and bent down, shook Lori's hand, and muttered to himself, looking a little like their Gallic people.

Cao Chuan did not stop it, he knew that Joan of Arc's mental model was completely independent, and no matter how attentive Mr. President was, it was impossible for him to betray himself and switch to the camp. Besides, the final ending of Joan of Arc in history is quite tragic, he was burned directly as a witch, and he was posthumously canonized as a saint after hundreds of years, even if there is any other emotion, it is absolutely very light.

"Cao, you've been in this country for half a month, I don't know what your impression of this country is?" Between meals, when it was time for Mr. President to implement the key work, he was thinking, what if he hugged the thighs of the East Galaxy Company? Will it make it easier for Gaul to become the big brother in the alliance?

As for face, he didn't care at all, in his opinion, the East Galaxy Company was an outsider after all, and their goal was the pan-solar system, and the Gaul country valued Europa more because of the grievances and hatreds between the countries for thousands of years.

Once the free lighthouse state was the thigh of Gaul, unfortunately, the president of the lighthouse state at the time was very smart, and an integrated 13-nation alliance of Europa was definitely much worse than an alliance with different paces, so the idea of the alliance united by the support of the lighthouse state succeeded.

"Impressions? Gaul was a developed country. Cao Chuan praised, "The people here not only have the spirit of hard work, but also have the romantic feelings of pursuing their dreams." ”

"Thank you for your compliments to the people of Gaul." Completely ignoring the truth of the first half of the sentence, the President lamented, "But it is irritating that some countries around Gaul are always inclined to contradict themselves in order to highlight their presence as a privilege to which they are entitled." ”

"Including the Xiaoice Age, in order to solve the disaster that concerns all mankind, we still have to negotiate and negotiate again through constant consultation, even if time is running out, and if there is no agreement, it will never be possible to do something to solve the problem."

"There is a leader in the alliance, and a voice in the alliance. What do you think, Mr. Advisor? ”

"Mr. President's determination and foresight are admirable, indeed, in such an era, the strength of the individual is small, the stone beam of the small organization is weak, and only when all mankind unites can we accomplish the great cause of conquering the stars and the sea."

"East Galaxy Company is happy to see human beings take greater strides in the development of the planet and make unremitting progress towards more distant goals, but at the same time, it is undeniable that the foundation of human beings is still on the earth, if we are so divided even our own homeland, what can we talk about conquering the sea of stars."

It seems that there is no rejection of his overtures? For example, a few years ago, when Mr. Adviser visited Europe to discuss cooperation, it happened to be the hottest wave of anti-war in his own country.

The fact is also that Italy and Victoria have benefited from it, regardless of the actual value of the benefits, what they get will always be greater than what they give, and the East Galaxy Company is generally a good partner to work with, isn't it?

Whether it is time to express one's own determination, only by showing their sincerity can they ensure that the talks will continue, as for whether they will turn their faces and not be a person in the future, that is another matter, at least Mr. President thinks that this kind of thing will not happen during his term of office.

Before he could speak, Cao Chuan said meaningfully: "Mr. President, in fact, the development of the East Galaxy Company so far has not been smooth sailing, and it is tired of dealing with all kinds of troubles in the development of the planet, including from the earth. ”

Backed down? No, it's supposed to be retreating. Mr. President is not stupid enough to become strong when he sees the East Galaxy Company showing weakness.

He thought that the time was almost ripe, and the two sides had the intention of having a concubine, so he hurriedly put forward a cooperation package for his subordinates, expecting the East Galaxy Company to invest in more companies, infrastructure projects, technology licensing, etc. in Gaul, and in return, the Gallic State originally intended to open the door for the East Galaxy Company.

Cao Chuan looked at the plan given by Mr. President: "A training camp with 20 single-seat seats for 5,000 trainers? 15 fusion power stations with a capacity of 6 million kilowatts each? Large-scale graphene processing plant... Well, it doesn't look like the Gallic country is too much. ”

In Cao Chuan's view, in the plan, Gaul did not intend to enter the strong fields of the East Galaxy Company, such as unmanned units, spaceship manufacturing, life sciences, etc., and this kind of concession was more satisfactory to him.

As for the biggest problem in this plan - money, there has always been a phenomenon that the East Galaxy Company cannot use foreign exchange, and there is no problem in using it for this kind of investment, and it is also a way to deepen cooperation, but it can stimulate further prosperity of their current economy.

But after all, it was a hundred billion dollars, so he turned to ask what specific return Mr. President would provide.

Mr. President talked about all the types of rewards that their country could tolerate, and Cao Chuan looked a little disappointed when he listened to the suggestions that did not particularly make his eyes shine and hit the pain points for the time being.

He decided to put forward his plan to import loli - in the next 10 years, the East Galaxy Company will recruit a group of young immigrants from Gaul to study and exchange in the lunar city, the age must not exceed 12 years old, the ratio of men to women is guaranteed to be 1:2, and the number requirement is 50,000.

"Like this... Not good. "Even if you are thick-skinned enough, Mr. President feels that if he agrees, it will appear that he is too undisciplined, and besides, how much will he feel a sense of belonging to Gaul since he was a child, and the immigrants will certainly not come back in the past, but do not forget that Mr. President is desperate to reach cooperation.

"What if they weren't all Gauls, Mr. Advisor? There may be people from the Polar Bear Country, the Big Bobo Country, the Little Polar Bear Country, the Victoria Country, the Watch Country..."

"It's not a big problem."

"In addition, I hope that a corresponding observation mission will be dispatched to ensure that they will be treated legally and fairly at East Galaxy."

"Of course."

When Mr. President heard this, he remembered the missed opportunity last time, and he was a lot more resolute, and decided to agree to Cao Chuan and eat the cooperation.
