Expedition to Europe

It turns out that Basel did not have the courage to challenge the authority of the French president.

Before December, Basel finally raised 20 million francs, and then established Basel Oil Development Company and began to explore for oil in Tunisia.

Although Basel Oil Development Company used Basel's name, Basel actually had no control over anything. The management of the company was in the hands of old Renault, and the same was true for the allocation of funds.

The 20 million francs immediately became the first income of the United Oil Company.

Basel promised not to ask about the company's operating conditions, but only look at the specific results. So the money is now completely controlled by the United Oil Company, or completely controlled by Qin Zhiyuan and old Renault.

The money was immediately divided up by Qin Zhiyuan and old Renault.

Qin Zhiyuan needed money to buy islands all over the world, and old Renault needed money to repay bank loans.

Old Renault was indeed very rich, but he would not take money out of his pocket to buy things. Half of his money was borrowed from the bank, and the other half was raised through various channels.

Look, this is the real way to invest, using other people's money to make money for yourself.

After hearing about Qin Zhiyuan's plan, Old Renault said that he was also very interested, so he also joined Qin Zhiyuan's global purchase plan.

Old Renault now recognizes a fact, no matter what Qin Zhiyuan does, just follow him. Maybe he still doesn't understand Qin Zhiyuan's intention now, but in the near future, he will definitely make a lot of money.

Obviously, since Qin Zhiyuan's series of Midas Touch, it is not just Old Renault who thinks so.

In France, a group of people are watching Qin Zhiyuan's movements. As long as Qin Zhiyuan wants to buy something, everyone will rush up.

In this regard, Qin Zhiyuan has no good way, he can only try to hide himself deeper and not let people know his investment direction.

When Prince Basel stopped making trouble and provided help sincerely, the progress of the project was significantly accelerated.

The relocation of the indigenous people in the New Baku Corridor was completed within three days, and Qin Zhiyuan and Old Renault finally owned Djerba Island completely. The construction progress of the pipeline has also been significantly accelerated, because according to Qin Zhiyuan's plan, the oil exploration plan in Tunisia will not be launched before the pipeline in the New Baku Corridor is completed.

This is to force Basel to fully cooperate with the construction of the New Baku pipeline.

Although Basel was angry about this, he had to give in. As the saying goes, I am the fish at the mercy of others...

After a trip to Djerba, Qin Zhiyuan returned to Paris. Almost as soon as he arrived in Paris, Qin Zhiyuan was called to the office by Clemenceau.

More than half a year after taking office, Clemenceau's style remains the same, still as fat, and as energetic, and his power is growing day by day.

"I wanted to comfort you, but now it seems unnecessary. I heard that you and Louis made a lot of money in Djerba this time." Clemenceau received Qin Zhiyuan with a smile.

Before becoming the Prime Minister of France, Clemenceau was also a businessman, so Clemenceau did not shy away from talking about interests, and he could put down his airs and express envy to Qin Zhiyuan and old Renault.

"I looked for you, but you gave up the opportunity." Qin Zhiyuan looked very happy.

This is nonsense. No matter who it is, they will be very happy to have just earned 30 tons of gold.

When the United Petroleum Company was first established, Qin Zhiyuan invited Clemenceau, but Clemenceau did not join the United Petroleum Company to avoid suspicion.

Now it seems that it doesn't matter whether there is suspicion or not. The president has joined, and one more prime minister is not too much.

"Ha, it's true. I think my salary is enough to pay for my life. I still believe it now." Clemenceau expressed limited envy. Not everyone is eager for money.

"Don't worry, the tax you should pay will not be less than a centime." Qin Zhiyuan wants to be a good citizen who does not evade taxes.

Paying taxes is natural in the West. Westerners respect personal property and also try their best to maintain the tax system. If someone is exposed for tax evasion, then that person will immediately be ruined. The nature of this crime is much more serious than in the East.

"That's the best! But the key to the problem is that the fastest time for United Petroleum to generate profits is next year, and my mess looks like it will go bankrupt tomorrow. I really don't know if I can hold on until next year." Clemenceau frowned.

Since the World War, the French government has been running out of money. The wealth accumulated over hundreds of years has been burned in the war, and the money owed to the Americans is accumulating every day. Clemenceau sometimes really wants to end this hopeless, damn war immediately. Only God knows when this day will end.

"You have to stick to the path you have chosen, no matter how difficult it is." Qin Zhiyuan has no mercy.

Everyone has their own preferences. There is no right or wrong in this matter. Before taking over the French government, Clemenceau knew that the government's financial situation was not good. Since Clemenceau still chose to serve as prime minister, he must accept it all.

"Yes, of course I will stick to it, even if the situation is ten thousand times worse." Clemenceau was firm. He was indeed not a person who retreated in the face of difficulties.

"Someone told me that if there are financial difficulties, you might as well find a solution. Now, I am in trouble, Qin, help me think of a solution." Clemenceau was worried. Although he had great ambitions, a penny could not make a hero fall.

"Who told you? Why didn't I realize that I still have this ability? Tell me his name, and I will let him know the price of lying!" Qin Zhiyuan vowed.

"Don't ask me who he is. I thought about it carefully. You are indeed good at financial management. Look at your LLL, then look at Future Creatures, and then look at United Petroleum... I have to say that although you have just arrived in France, It’s been more than a year, but I’ve done more than I, an old man, have done in my whole life. When it comes to financial management, I don’t think I can make as much as you have made in this year.” Clemenceau’s top tip. .

Future Biotechnology is a company established specifically to operate penicillin. This company is now Qin Zhiyuan's most profitable industry.

After Sandy developed penicillin, he turned his attention to biotechnology, with agricultural improvement and industrial synthesis being the key directions.

Qin Zhiyuan is still the same, with unlimited financial support and no time requirements for project setting, giving Sandy full freedom.

"Key point, tell the key point..." Qin Zhiyuan prompted.

"Uh... the point is..." Clemenceau was really old. Hearing Qin Zhiyuan's prompt, he rolled his eyes and thought for a long time before remembering what he wanted to say: "The point is that every one of your industries is Those that are beneficial to society, such as penicillin, have saved countless lives in the past few months; such as LLL Company, their products are high-quality and low-priced. You see, even an old man like me likes Hunter Clothing. "

Clemenceau said, showing Qin Zhiyuan the "Hunter" shirt he was wearing.

"When it comes to penicillin, the French government earns more than me. I only charge 100 francs for each penicillin, but how much do you sell it for? God, I heard that the black market price is now 10,000 francs." Qin Zhiyuan was indignant.

Qin Zhiyuan also has spies in Paris. What happened in Paris cannot be hidden from Qin Zhiyuan, especially something as sensitive as penicillin.

"The French government has never resold penicillin. Those were the personal actions of criminals." Clemenceau stated righteously.

Clemenceau stared and told lies. Qin Zhiyuan had enough evidence to prove that the French government was reselling penicillin in an organized way to make huge profits.

However, there is no need to expose this kind of thing. It is precisely because of penicillin that the French government was able to tolerate Qin Zhiyuan's extraordinary behavior in Corsica and Sidi Bel Abbas, and even though it was reluctant in the "Surabaya Incident", it had to Support Qin Zhiyuan.

In fact, there is no right or wrong in state behavior. To use general moral standards to require state behavior is to apply it mechanically.

Thinking of the state's behavior, Qin Zhiyuan suddenly thought of a way to make money, but this required the cooperation of Clemenceau.

"Speaking of making money, I have an idea, but it requires the cooperation of certain government departments." Qin Zhiyuan tested Clemenceau's bottom line.

"Cooperate? How to cooperate?" Clemenceau was very interested.

"Morocco...there is oil there." Qin Zhiyuan said with an extremely sure tone.

"Really?" Clemenceau was surprised.

"Fake!" Qin Zhiyuan said honestly.

"Oh... God, it's so frustrating!" Clemenceau felt like he was hit head-on, slapping his forehead and falling heavily on the sofa.

"However, many people don't know that this is fake." Qin Zhiyuan took another approach.

"What do you mean?" Clemenceau asked brightly.

"Have you noticed that since Louis and I bought New Baku, many people are staring at me now. They are waiting for my next move. If I want to buy part of Morocco's land now..." Qin Zhiyuan said seriously.

"Wahahahaha...Qin, I like you, you are such a bad guy! If I have a daughter, I will definitely marry her to you." Clemenceau laughed.

Qin Zhiyuan looked at Clemenceau's evil old face, the corners of his mouth twitched twice, and he really couldn't laugh.

Clemenceau's daughter...

Well, it's really a bit scary.

Soon, a rumor in Paris began to spread wildly: Qin, who owned the new Baku oil field, went to the Prime Minister's Office and asked to buy land in Morocco...

This rumor is really unclear and the information is insufficient. It does not explain which area Qin Zhiyuan wants to buy, nor the specific price.

But this did not stop the enthusiasm of some interested people. Almost overnight, more than a dozen oil companies appeared in Paris and rushed to the Prime Minister's Office to purchase land in Morocco.

Where to buy?

It doesn’t matter, as long as it is related to the three words Morocco!

So overnight, due to the crazy speculation of more than a dozen oil companies, Morocco's land went from being uninterested to being hot, and prices began to soar crazily.

In some desert areas that look similar to the new Baku area, the land there is no longer even sold in "square kilometers", but in "hectares", and even in "acres" trend.

Wealth can really drive people into blind madness.
