"Your Majesty, you don't need to send it anymore."

"Alright then, goodbye Mr. Pedersen."

"Goodbye, Your Majesty."

Waving to the Minister of Transport, who boarded the carriage, Carlo returned to the palace in the face of the sunset.

"Chief Guard, go get busy."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Carlo, who returned to the office, sent everyone away, and sat on the sofa tired and closed his eyes.

He'd seen too many people these days, and talking to these old foxes, he had to deal with them mentally. He can still cope with one or two games, but the large number of people naturally makes Carlo physically and mentally exhausted, after all, people's energy is limited.

Suddenly, a pair of jade hands gently pressed on Carlo's forehead, smelling the familiar aroma, and Carlo knew who it was without opening his eyes.

"Nia, why are you here?"

The more radiant Nia looked at him with a look of love. "It's not like seeing that you've been busy these days, so I'm concerned about you."

The concern from Nia made Carlo look energetic, and he hugged him in front of him and looked at the other party.

"Thank you, my Nia care, as a king, this is what I should do."

"By the way, why do I see so many people coming here these days?"

Seeing Nia with a curious face, Carlo decided to satisfy the other party's curiosity.

"Isn't this the colony of Kalimantan, and these ministers who smell something are impatient to get involved."

Carlo didn't finish because there was another reason, that is, he was about to become an adult, and his power would also increase, and many ministers knew this, so except for a few, everyone else tried to release goodwill.

Of course, among them, it is also necessary to seek some benefits for the forces behind him, because the decision power of the first governor of Borneo in Italy is currently in the hands of Carlo.

Of course, these people did not have the idea of choosing a governor, because they also knew that the position would inevitably be filled by people from the king's faction, who were more likely to compete with the various branches of the colonial government.

Don't underestimate these departments, as overseas colonies, these departments must be much more rich in oil and water, just by virtue of the power in their hands, as long as they tilt a little in a certain direction, they are huge wealth.

You must know that this is the first batch of officials, and the profits involved are extremely huge.

According to the Italian government's estimates, the value of various minerals and cash crops in Lanfang is as high as more than one billion lira, and the value is even more astonishing when you add a large colony from the Netherlands. Although such a large fortune was occupied by the local Chinese, its profits were still amazing, after all, Lanfang's territory had been encroached upon to the point that only a small piece of territory was left in the lower reaches of the Kun River, and the rest was withdrawn by the Dutch.

With such a large territory, there are naturally all kinds of minerals and plantations, and although these places currently have owners, it is believed that these people are also mentally prepared to sell these industries.

And Italian domestic capital can't wait to become a recipient, after all, this is a ready-made industry, and it will not suffer a loss. That's why so many people come to visit His Majesty the King, Carlo, who is the allegiance of the army. At present, this Italian colony is still under the jurisdiction of the army, and needs to wait for the government to send officials to take over.

However, none of this was a problem for Carlo, and his bigger problem was that he had a hard time choosing the first governor.

That's right, although Carlo has the choice of the first governor, it is difficult to choose the person he entrains.

Let's put it this way, Carlo has not many people to choose from for the post of governor, and he still needs to improve in terms of ability. Because of the victory in the previous Sino-French war, some people at the top of the government moved closer to him, and it was not until this time that the Dutch colony was taken that the officials began to have their hearts set on their monarch, but among these people who turned to themselves, it was really not easy to choose a person who met their expectations.

The reason is simple, Carlo is very demanding of this position. First of all, as the first colony of Italy (the Somali book friends can be dispersed), he needs to be able to regulate the relationship between the local indigenous Chinese and the Italians, because this colony Italy is based on the idea of opening up and making money, so it cannot be cleaned up first like other countries, which will reduce its income in a few years.

Of course, large-scale clean-up is not possible, but small-scale killing of chickens and monkeys is still possible.

But in addition to this, the region also needs to take on the task of being a transit point from Italy to the Far East, which is also urgent. Because the first batch of goods sent from Italy to the Qing Kingdom had already arrived at their destination, and the lack of their own maintenance base, the use of British docks and other facilities in the area made the merchants who were not very profitable lose some expenses, so that it was okay for a short time, but it was uncomfortable for a long time.

In addition, it is necessary to prepare for the infiltration of the remaining Dutch colonies in Borneo, you must know that Italy only guaranteed to occupy other islands in the Netherlands, but did not say that it did not make small moves against Borneo, which was a loophole left on purpose, of course, as the Dutch Foreign Minister Becchio also saw it and wrote, and asked for revision on the spot, but it was dragged over by the Italians on the grounds that the border has not yet been surveyed. Otherwise, why did the Dutch hurriedly send 5,000 troops, this is to prevent the Italians from continuing to do things.

Of course, considering that the ink of the treaty has not yet dried, it is still possible to send someone to investigate and infiltrate it first. After all, the rest of the Dutch colonies in Borneo are vast and sparsely populated, and it is not easy to catch these scurrying expeditions in the dense rainforest.

You see, so many tasks require a high level of ability, that is, to coordinate ethnic disputes and develop the economy, but also to build port transit stations, in addition to infiltrating the Dutch colonies, and by the way, to deal with the relationship with the former Lanfang officials, this is completely a trumpet prime minister.

At present, Carlo knows that there are no more than five people with this ability, and at least they are ministers in charge of one department, which makes Carlo find another one from nowhere.

And these people couldn't say anything to a maid, so Carlo could only smile and say to Nia.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of this."

"I know this, His Majesty Carlo is the most powerful, and nothing can be difficult for you."

Looking at Nia who looked at him with admiration, Carlo was playful for a moment, and said with a straight face. "No, there's one thing that bothers me."

The little maid who didn't know the truth asked curiously. "What can stump Your Majesty?"

"I can't have a baby."

"Hahaha, Your Majesty, you're so funny."

Nia said as she couldn't help but quietly touch her smooth and flat lower abdomen with her hand.

Why is there no movement at all?

Not noticing Nia's small movements, Carlo hugged Nia and kissed her.

"Alright, Niah, can you go back first and come back to you in the evening?"

"Well, I'll surprise you then."

After sending Nia away, Carlo brisked himself and prepared to continue considering the choice of governor.
