Chapter 954: Divide up
The reason is very simple. Su Weidian’s so-called food is really not great. It’s okay to eat a few meals occasionally, and it lasts for one or two months. For Qi Tianlin, it’s better to eat those many varieties of individual soldiers’ rations, so as soon as you can openly move your hands and feet, you will quickly start cooking.
After Annie had two meals secretly, she had been living in China for a while. Over the years, she lived with Liu Ziyue and the others, and she was a little bit stolen and stopped attending dinner with her parents.
Finally, the king and his wife were brought over, and home-cooked side dishes were also something that His Majesty and His Highness were not easy to eat. However, there is still a big difference in the Chinese restaurants on the streets of Su Weidian.
Qi Tianlin asked Liu Ziyue to air-freighted seasonings for herself, so now that she is leaving, the queen is actually thinking about dinner: "We will also hire a Chinese chef?" After saying that, she shook her head: "Well, if this matter is announced, people will say it will be wasted..." Public figures really have so many worries.
Princess Mary was discussing things with her father and advised her husband: "You can learn some cooking from Paul, as well, you are idle anyway."
After getting married, the prince is really a kind person. In fact, like many Su Weidian people that Qi Tianlin has come into contact with, this kind of peaceful country with high welfare, high income and high prices is at most a person who is happy all day long and has a leisurely life. After hearing this, I really asked Qi Tianlin for advice.
Qi Tianlin actually lamented more about the kind relationship between the king and the crown prince. When the constitutional monarchy stripped away the monarch's actual power, there was indeed no urgent change of power, and he regarded being the head of state as a somewhat special job.
Gusfta also turned his attention to this junior who was very different from his eldest son-in-law: "Su Weidian does not want to be dragged into any war, but he will not be pedantic to think that war is useless. Although we never ask the specific reasons for your affairs with Anne, you must remember to guarantee Su Weidian's interests, that is enough."
Qi Tianlin is not used to eating a double-cooked pork and having a fork, so he only holds chopsticks. The palace is not short of such things: "Su Weidian has advantages and characteristics, and can definitely deal effectively on the edge of war. I also try my best to limit the war to a certain part to see if I can find a different path through limited war."
Gusfta was very satisfied with this answer and raised his glass to clink his glass with his two sons-in-law...
The next morning, Anne, who said goodbye to her parents and children, drove the Knight and Qi Tianlin to Germany. On the way, she passed the private castle in Rostock and circled around the sky. She called the butler and asked her a question. She arrived in Stuttgart, in southern central Germany, in the area where the US headquarters base was located. After receiving a strict inspection by US soldiers, Anne drove the Knight to a nearby private airport, and the Germans would receive her first.
When Qi Tianlin met with Mike, he could no longer see any physical discomfort. The US Lieutenant General expressed his condolences to his misfortune of being injured in Somalia. After a simple greeting, the two sat on both sides of the desk and started talking.
Mike unexpectedly offered to suspend the construction of US military bases in Africa: "Because this form of bases is now under congressional investigation, the global US military bases have indeed supported Americans' control, but at the same time it has also consumed too much money, making US military bases the targets of attacks everywhere, which is very troublesome."
But this does not mean that Qi Tianlin's work in Africa will stop. Instead, Mike proposed another strategic route: "On the basis of operating and stabilizing current African allies, infiltrate PMC companies to the central and southern regions as much as possible, and establish branch offices in these countries and localities in the form of mercenaries."
Qi Tianlin was even more straightforward: "What is the purpose?" It was not a head-on battle, but just asked him to spread the black people over it less obviously. This can be seen as a business behavior. It is not a white oasis company employee who changed his appearance, so it is really not difficult to get in.
Mike placed his elbows on the armrests of the chairs on both sides with his fingers: "In order to deal with the control of China in Kenyani and Tanzaniani!" His eyes were locked on Qi Tianlin's eyes.
Qi Tianlin was not uncomfortable with it: "No problem! But you should also pay attention to the Japanese. Don't blame me for not reminding you. They have done a lot of tricks. This time, they asked to establish an appropriate naval supply base in Somalia. In the future, their so-called escort at the Gulf of Aden will become normalized!"
Mike smiled contemptuously: "Are the Japanese? This country cannot be guessed by common sense. I prefer to let them expose those ideas and ideas, which is much better than they secretly hide under the disguise, so you can pretend to cooperate with them and see what they are going to do."
Qi Tianlin thought to himself that I had the same idea! But he also despised: "What are you doing? They just want to train troops, and they practice troops without violating their constitution. In short, I mentioned this to you as a memorandum. I will notify you of any situation if they have."
Mike is not a fuel-efficient lamp: "In view of your infiltration into Kenyani and Tanzanian areas, we will arrange some personnel from the CIA and Special Operations Command to set up offices in Somalia to follow and facilitate regulation."
In fact, it is just surveillance, just like Qi Tianlin now has some Americans in various regions observing a truth from a distance.
Qi Tianlin still did not resist: "You can arrange this casually. Somalia is not so easy to defeat. I can only try my best to control the north. After all, it is impossible for the troops in central Africa to be mobilized to Somalia at will."
The two sides have been very skilled in cooperation, and Qi Tianlin's cooperation has always been pretty good. The key is that the cost is not high. Qi Tianlin's strategy does not expect Americans to pay money and fool the US funds. Therefore, this is very different from those PMC companies that have cooperated with the US government in the past, especially in this period when it is a bit poor, which is even more rare.
Therefore, the arrangements for allocating Arab staff to Karta were discussed faster. All daily necessities and military firearms were considered Americans, and each person had a subsidy of fifty dollars per day. The first batch of 500 people was immediately arranged. According to the specific situation, if there is no additional cap, Qi Tianlin would go to Karta to see the situation and try his best to help the Americans relieve the pressure.
Because these are two extremely important permanent bases, not war bases, but footholds in the Middle East, Americans do not want to rashly interfere in the affairs of Carta. Although it seems from now on that they are wrongly reaching out within the Carta royal family, which has caused such a situation, so they are becoming more and more cautious in the face of the current situation.
The two sides shared two cigars in a friendly atmosphere. Qi Tianlin told the specific story of his injury. Mike also narrated what happened in Carta without involving confidential content, especially the severe flight stories of the CIA Middle East Bureau and the outbreak of the air force base. The peripheral PMC needs to provide better support to the US military in terms of security and intelligence control, so the tasks of hundreds of people in the past are not light.
Qi Tianlin also had dinner with Mike at the officer's restaurant at the US military base, and introduced several generals who were dining in the restaurant, and was sent out from the base by the guards of Mike's African Command.
A German car was waiting for him.
This is a contact that Qi Tianlin values...
The people who were interviewed were originally Thyssen and Mr. Krupp, but the others were present. Are these moguls very idle?
But at the beginning of the conversation, it proved why everyone was there.
Because Qi Tianlin had discussed on the phone that he had a friend who was participating in the recovery plan of the US manufacturing industry, and he didn't know what his ideas were about Mr. Thyssen and Krupp, who also belonged to the famous German manufacturing industry.
It was because Qi Tianlin deliberately said it more implicitly in order to prevent eavesdropping on the phone, but the situation where the other party rushed forward showed that this really hit the string in the hearts of the Germans.
What Germany is most proud of is manufacturing. When Britain, the United States and other countries have carried out "de-industrialization" industrial structure adjustments, Germany did not blindly follow the trend. Some old-fashioned insistence on retaining almost all the high-end industrial chain and the manufacturing industry with market pricing power. Coupled with reasonable national policies, this is the reason why Germany can stand firm in this European financial storm and stand out.
The manufacturing industry in the United States can be said to be the only strongest rival in Germany's manufacturing industry.
In a sense, World War II was the powerful American manufacturing industry that defeated the German manufacturing industry at the end of its strength. Once upon a time, one-third of the workers in the United States worked in factories. It was this huge manufacturing country that created the prosperous American economy. However, with the development of the financial services industry, especially the development of the Internet economy, the high labor costs have led to the increasing lack of competitiveness of American manufacturing, so it has been shrinking.
But to quote Mr Thyssen, "But the US manufacturing industry is still the world's number one in terms of total volume!"
Don’t think that the cheap daily consumer goods produced by Chinese people will have a sense of superiority if they occupy the European and American markets in a large amount. A product can earn a few cents of profit, and perhaps the appreciation of a Chinese currency will be all profited by Americans.
Americans are equivalent to giving labor-intensive outsourcing production to factories like China, which are the least profitable and environmentally friendly, to factories in the world. From large aircraft, advanced industrial machinery, and even engines of tanks and warships, to high-end electronic equipment upstream industries that are related to national plans, and the world's arms industry, the Americans are still in control.
Mr. Krupp expressed their purpose of actively gathering: "We are very interested in gradually controlling these backbone forces in the US manufacturing industry through recent fluctuations in the US market."
