No matter how powerful Gao Shaoyi's suppressing army is, all its influence only stays in the north, and it is impossible to have any impact on the colonies of the Gallic Empire in the south...
Nan Batian is very clear about this, but Nan Batian's structure is destined to make him unable to figure out how Gao Shaoyi did this.
It is true that the suppressing army did not have the ability to assassinate Governor Annan, but what if it was replaced by the Mikoyan consortium?
Is it also incapable?
Governor Annan is indeed a high-ranking official, and he has made great contributions to the entire Gallic Empire. But then again, to the Mikoyan Consortium, he is just a slightly higher-level wage earner.
The empire is nothing. It may be troublesome to assassinate such a person, but compared with the benefits Gao Shaoyi gives, what is this trouble?
Legation of the Gallic Empire in Beijing.
It's still the same room, but it's just been sixty hours now, and it's completely different from before. On the balcony of the room, Gao Shaoyi and Mr. Renault were talking very closely, and from time to time the two would toast.
"The power of the Renault family really surprised me. Fortunately, I chose you as a partner. If I had chosen anyone else, I'm afraid I would have faced failure by now, including my army who might have fought against you after they went south.
There is a major conflict in the Lu Empire."
Gao Shaoyi also took a gamble at the beginning. To be honest, he didn't know what kind of actions the Mikoyan Consortium would make. Although he was very confident in what he did in front of Li Hongtang, it was just to stabilize the morale of the military. After all,
We are not roundworms in people's stomachs, and we have no way to let people make decisions.
"Mr. Gao is also very powerful. In just two days, Nan Batian's reputation has fallen to the bottom. It is really a pity. Mr. Gao is not only very powerful in the military, but also in public opinion wars."
In other words, Mr. Gao is also ahead of everyone. On behalf of the Renault family and the Mikoyan Consortium, I congratulate Mr. Gao on his success!"
What Mr. Renault said is absolutely true. I originally thought that Gao Shaoyi was a speculator, but I never thought that Gao Shaoyi was a tycoon. But now it is completely different. All the ideas come from others, and we are just an executive.
It's just that, it is indeed not easy to have such a win-win situation now.
"Mr. Renault praised me too much. We are all cogs in the whole thing. Your Renault family is the biggest cog. If we didn't cooperate well enough, there would never be such a result. After that,
I think you will continue to promote this plan for a certain period of time."
Gao Shaoyi is very aware of the current situation. He has just delayed the entire plan. If the next Governor Annan takes office, we still don't know what his thoughts are. If he continues to promote this plan, I am afraid Gao Shaoyi and the others are still not out of danger.
"Mr. Gao, don't worry. Members of our family are competing for the position of Governor Annan. If nothing goes wrong, my cousin should be the one who takes office. By then, everyone will be their own people. In the south, I hope Mr. Gao can do more.
take care of."
When Mr. Renault said this, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. After all, Gao Shaoyi is a tycoon. This is a fact. They would rather cooperate with Nan Batian than Gao Shaoyi, but the situation is stronger than the person. If
If it weren't for Gao Shaoyi's matchmaking, they would never have participated in this plan in any way.
Either you participate in this plan now and make huge profits, or you join forces with the current Governor of Annan to continue to suppress the suppressive army going south. In terms of long-term interests, this is what they should do, but people within the family are not. They all have such a long-term vision, and they value immediate interests more, so they chose to cooperate with Gao Shaoyi.
Moreover, people in the Gallic Empire are born with a sense of superiority. They think that Gao Shaoyi's brain is not very good. Like other people in the Daqian Empire, they will be fooled by them after a while. At that time, Gao Shaoyi may He is their spokesperson.
"I wonder what kind of care Mr. Renault asked me to perform?"
Cousins are often the fiercest competitors in the family. Although Gao Shaoyi himself has no cousins, looking at the royal family of the Daqian Empire, you will naturally understand what is going on. These two people are definitely not suitable for each other.
"Mr. Gao, what does this mean?"
The kid Renault pretended to be confused, but he still picked up the silver pot next to him and poured a cup of tea for Gao Shaoyi.
In fact, Gao Shaoyi has already investigated clearly. There are only two young people of this generation of the Renault family, namely Renault and the incoming Governor Annan. The two brothers here are competing for the inheritance rights of the next patriarch of the Renault family. Gao Shaoyi feels that there are many things involved. Place can be used.
"It turns out I was wrong. I'm really sorry."
Gao Shaoyi deliberately pretended to be suddenly enlightened.
The purpose of Gao Shaoyi's doing this is obvious, which is to make Renault feel that Gao Shaoyi is abrupt. Gao Shaoyi originally thought that all families are fights between cousins. Maybe the Renault family is an accident, so Gao Shaoyi now makes an apologetic look.
How can this be done?
The competition between the two brothers has reached a fever pitch. The reason why Renault asked just now is to test what Gao Shaoyi means. If Gao Shaoyi takes back his hand, wouldn't he lose an ally? What's more, this ally's Not weak in strength.
"My cousin and I really don't have much in common. If there were other suitable candidates, he would never be pushed to this seat."
Revealing one's family disputes in front of outsiders should be a very low-level behavior, but the person in front of him is very rare. If he loses the help of this person, Renault wants to defeat his cousin. It's the year of the monkey and the month of the horse. If the person in front of me is willing to help, then half of the position of heir has been obtained.
"When this is done, I want absolute control of these two railways."
Since this has been discussed, there is no need to cover it up. Half of the rights to these two railways are in the hands of the Mikoyan Consortium, so what Gao Shaoyi wants is 51% of the rights, and only 100% of the rights will be transferred. One-third of the rights may not sound like much, but it is very difficult...
