Rebirth of the Spanish Empire

Chapter 360: Conditions

Trini, who understood this, refused directly, and said righteously: "I'm sorry, but I refuse your request. I believe that our Majesty, here, will refuse you without hesitation. Reasonable requirements.”

"Is it reasonable to make a request if it invades other people's territory? Is it unreasonable to seize other people's money? Mr. Trini, I think your Spanish legal system has always been very complete. Yes, in addition to the issue of morality, I think that if you do not agree with the moral point of view, then we also have legal basis to negotiate with you." Helio said vividly. He looks a bit like a speaker, and people can't help but fall into what he says, and can't help but sympathize and trust him.

Alfonso has been around him for many years and is already familiar with this type of action, so his natural immunity is not as high as usual. "However, it seems that we don't have much time to deal with this. You know, we have almost too many colonies. As the foreign minister of such a country, I believe that in your position as foreign minister, you are responsible for managing such a large colony. Colonies and the like also feel very burdened, so we have precious time to cherish on this matter. If. I mean if, our talks do not get what we expected, even if If the bottom line is the lowest, then it is very likely that we will choose to limit the extension of the next negotiation time. It will be unclear who will bear the final result."

"What, how could you do this? This is ungentlemanly behavior. No, it should be said to be a direct blackmail behavior and should be condemned."

Although Edward Herriot already possesses the agility and sensitivity unique to ordinary diplomats, after all, he lacks training in this position, so he still has an impression of it, and does not really get into it and perform it as smoothly as using his arms. , I am still not familiar with how to use the twists and turns inside, so Trini suddenly said such a sentence. He couldn't help but become violent anymore. [

But it's no wonder he's like this. Originally, he came with the Elysee Palace's desire to keep a low profile and to compromise, in order to conduct a one-time settlement of conflicts in the relationship between the two countries and embark on a journey of reconciliation. After the negotiation is completed. We are also preparing for the Prime Minister and even the President to visit Madrid to truly have a dialogue with this huge super player neighbor in the south. To put the relationship between the two countries back on track, however, those who originally thought they had the upper hand poked and bullied others. But he suddenly discovered that his reasons seemed to have become illusory. However, Trini's words directly caused him to fly from heaven and suddenly be dropped to the mortal world. This huge gap really makes him feel unnatural even now.

So he couldn't help but roar, and his attitude became a little bit vicious.

The more Trini looked at it, the happier he felt on the contrary, because in this way, it was obvious that he had entered the role he needed, and the same was true for Helio.

He hummed with a bit of yin and yang in pursuit of victory, and said: "What Mr. Helio said just now, especially regarding your so-called morality issue, I disagree with the most. Why, because just think about it, which of our countries does not rely on blood to survive? Well, when you say it this way, it doesn’t look like what happened in 1900 when the British led everyone to invade France during the Qing Dynasty. Moreover, among those colonies in Africa, which one of them took the initiative? It is delivered to your door for management. Therefore, I think that we are already in this regard. You do not need to make any explanations about who is right and who is wrong. We need negotiations in the real sense, not these nonsense things. Let me state first, I'm not showing weakness in this regard, because after all, our country's territory has been developed by you for decades or hundreds of years. You should be very clear about the profits from this, so after all calculations, you are also justified in losing money. The reason is”

It’s true. The two largest colonizers in the world are Britain and France. When it comes to plundering other countries’ territories, there are really few countries that can compare with France. So thinking about it this way, he really has nothing. It can be used as a rebuttal, and it’s hard to find an excuse.

Tighten and loosen once, so that you can slowly relax and regulate the other person's mood, making it easier for the outcome of the matter to go according to your own ideas. Now Trini has perfected this refining skill.

Edward Herriot has been pushed into a corner just now, and now it is time for him to relax.

Trini: "I understand that everyone is serving the people at home, but sometimes, international regulations still need to be followed, otherwise like Spain hundreds of years ago, as the largest hegemon on the European continent, After the defeat of the British, it was not just about going around to appeal for grievances. I know that France is a great country, just like Spain. However, greatness is great, but a strong country also has the rules of a strong country. Therefore, we think that we Negotiations on territorial issues are already possible. What do you think? What do you think? If you can, then continue. If you think the attitude is still the same as before, then rejecting it is better for everyone, because I think that would at least not increase the contradiction, rather than reduce it.

If you insist, I may really have no time limit.”

Helio looked at Trini's serious and slightly fake look, and smiled bitterly in his heart. He originally thought that he could understand how to deal with diplomatic disputes by already understanding the diplomatic operation process, but now it seems that he is still far away. Woolen cloth?

At this time, he was no longer allowed to be uncompromising, because she had no other way to say anything and continue, and Paul Dume and the others would be disappointed in themselves because of this.

He cheered up and said with a forced smile: "Since you have said it, of course I support continuing the conversation."

You laugh, you must be crying to tears in your heart right now! No wonder Trini dares to claim to be the most shameless and greatest foreign minister. He really has an unusually thick skin.

"Well, this meeting will be held in Bilbao, a beautiful Spanish city. There are many people here who have a special love for France. It can be said that they are very true to France. Do you feel it? You must have felt it, right?"

"Shit feelings, I think they are evil feelings. Dreaming about seeing a chariot in our hometown of Marseille is more like it." He was muttering and cursing the other party's hypocrisy in his heart, but he forgot that he was also cursing the other party. Obviously, he He is also the same person as the other party.

But he had to smile and said: "That's right, even when we are in Paris, we heard that many people in Paris now have deep feelings for Spain."

"Really, that's best. Well, since we have such deep feelings, then our territorial issue will be easy to discuss. Well, since everyone has such deep feelings, we in Spain cannot bully others too much, and We disappointed our friends, so we decided that Spain only wants the Madagascar Islands, Gabon, the Spanish Congo and the southern half of Central Africa. How about it, is it refreshing and polite enough??"

Seeing the smile on his face, Edward Herriot really wanted to give him a few punches to see if this bastard was really made of cowhide. He is so thick-skinned that he can do it. It is clear that the two countries are now divided according to the map he mentioned. If this is the case, doesn't it mean that France will continue to squat on the current territory, while Spain will continue to do so. Mixed in the territory that occupied France. What is the difference between such negotiation and no negotiation? No, there is a difference, that is, Spain actually wants France to directly recognize their rule over those territories. Such a result, if he agrees, it may happen the next day. It is not impossible that he will be dismissed immediately after the announcement.

"Spain is too polite. We are guests. We should do the polite things. Well, given that Spain now has many allies and a large population, it is still smaller than France. So , I think Spain should be more leisurely and not so busy, so we in France are willing to relieve Spain of more busy work. We can transfer Madagascar to Spain, and Gabon can also be transferred to you, but there are still other countries in Central Africa. We feel that it is best for the French Congo to be under our jurisdiction."[

"No, no, no, it's the host's duty to provide convenience to the guests. Well, let's take some time off. We are willing to give up Central Africa north of Cabo to France. This is our bottom line. You know, Those places add up to more than 100,000 square kilometers. For the sake of the overall relationship between you and us, I have done my best, so please stop being picky."

Edward Herriot's heart moved, and he could see that this was already very close to Trini's bottom line, which could be seen from Trini's serious expression. And compared with the previous one, this result can be regarded as completing the task. He, Paul Dume and others believe that it is absolutely impossible to take Gabon back unless there is a war, but this possibility is definitely something the French government is trying to avoid. is on, so this has been ruled out.

"Actually, we know that you want the Spanish Congo and Gabon, and we are not unwilling to give them to you, but there are conditions."

"What are the conditions?" Helio asked hurriedly with some excitement when he heard that there was hope of getting those two places.

Guess what the conditions are. Today’s third update, there are two more to come, and I’m hurriedly coding. ()
