Sure enough, just as Xia Li said, after Christina saw Lin Youde, she first apologized to him for the assassin he encountered at the train station.

Lin Youde naturally said that he didn't have to care.

In fact, there is no other response than to say so, both sides are just going through the motions, after all, there are still many things to cooperate in the future.

After the end of the politeness, the two sides sat down, although the itinerary said that the next is the reception banquet, but before the banquet is ready, the two sides have a short meeting, this kind of meeting is generally not written on the itinerary, there will be no meeting minutes, it is a mutual understanding of the conversation, basically this practice is already a practice in the world here.

Because there will be no minutes of the meeting, and no substantive resolutions will be reached, Lin Youde began to run the train as soon as he sat down, what kind of friendship between France and Germany dominates Europe, France and Germany unite against the bastard Britain at sea, and even involved the Hundred Years War between Britain and France back then.

Christina is worthy of being a former courtesan in Grand Paris, the queen of socials, and she is also comfortable with Lin Youde's running train.

After about twenty minutes of talking, Christina suddenly turned to the recent war in the Middle East.

"I heard that you provided the Battle Queens to the Middle East Army in Vale, where did you conjure those Battle Queens from?"

Because of Lin Youde's request, the origins of these war queens were kept strictly secret, and the war queens were also instructed by the rabbis not to show their Jewish beliefs and expose their race. But this kind of thing can't be done airtightly, and there will always be some clues. And whether these clues can be found is the contest between hunters and cunning foxes on the intelligence battlefield.

Lin Youde glanced at the fox, and the ears on the latter's head turned, which was the code of denial agreed between the two of them, which meant that the French spies were blocked from the truth, and it was likely that they had not yet obtained accurate information about the origin of those war concubines.

So Lin Youde decided to prevaricate her casually.

"What do you think?" After saying this, Lin Youde regretted it a little, after all, this prevarication is too perfunctory no matter how you look at it, it is not prevarication at all, it is just a trick.

Unexpectedly, Christina had a "I understand" expression and smiled very ambiguously.

Lin Youde estimated that she was planning to create a false impression of "everything in control" for herself, but it was a pity that her intelligence strategy was superior. It seems that the subsequent negotiations have stabilized.

While Lin Youde was thinking this, a waiter came in and reported that lunch was ready in the kitchen.

So Christina stood up and made a gesture of invitation to Lin Youde as the owner.

Next is a pleasant meal time, the chefs serve the most authentic French cuisine, Lin Youde can be regarded as a feast as a foodie.

Among the dishes that came up, Lin Youde liked the soup and red wine snails the most - he had eaten various grades of French cuisine many times after he crossed over, and he always felt that soup and snails were the essence of French cuisine.

After eating, Lin Youde said goodbye to Christina temporarily, accompanied by Xia Li, to the temporary accommodation arranged by the French, and took a nap.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the formal talks began.

Lin Youde changed his style in the morning, went straight to the point, and put forward a proposal to buy the area around Jerusalem.

Before leaving Germany, the Jews drew a map of Lin Youde and marked all the areas they wanted, including Gaza, Tripoli, Haifa, and a range of other areas, in addition to Jerusalem at the foot of the Temple Mount. Basically, the territory that belonged to Israel in the last time and space was circled, and the territory of Lebanon and part of Syria were added.

It can only be said that human greed is boundless, and the same is true of the devout believers in Judaism.

Lin Youde discussed with the fox a little on the train, and finally decided to only put forward territorial claims west of the Jordan River, including Jerusalem, after all, Tripoli and other places actually have some population and resources, and the French may not be willing to sell.

After Lin Youde made a proposal, Christina frowned, she stared at Lin Youde, showing her suspicions without reservation.

"Mr. Lin, may I ask you why you want to buy this area?"

In this regard, Lin Youde has prepared a rhetoric a long time ago.

"The Holy See seems to be very unfriendly to me, so I think that controlling the Holy City of Christianity can give me a means to check and balance the Holy See in the future if there is any problem between me and the Holy See."

"You're going to buy the whole area just for that?" The suspicion on Christina's face did not fade, but intensified, "I'm really sorry, we can't accept this reason." ”

At this time, the fox responded according to the previous arrangement, and said, "Are you worried that we bought it for the resources there?" It's easy to do, and when we buy it, we can give French companies the right to prospect and exploit it. ”

Lin Youde knew very well that the land that was about to be given to the Jews was very barren, there were no mineral resources at all, and there was no oil in terms of energy, not even coal. So even if the French were to be granted the right to prospect and exploit, there would be no dispute - how could there be a dispute if there were no resources? Mining rights are simply decorations, and prospecting rights may cause some discontent among the Jews, but when the French are busy for a long time and find nothing, this dissatisfaction will dissipate.

After the fox finished speaking, Christina's doubts deepened again.

"Mr. Lin, after your rise in Germany, I became somewhat interested in China," but Christina said something unrelated, "so I hired a Chinese teacher to teach me Chinese and show me about Chinese culture." I know that you have a saying in China, which is called to be courteous when you have nothing to do -- either you are a traitor or a thief. ”

The French pronunciation was strange, but Lin Youde could still hear which colloquial phrase she was talking about.

Although the details are a little different, Christina's reaction is still within the expected range.

So Lin Youde said according to the original plan: "That's right, so in order to give you peace of mind, we plan to buy this area at a relatively low price, and we will offer a price that is in line with the purpose of checking and balancing the Holy See." ”

When Potsdam was studying the way to negotiate with the French, Lin Youde and his wife reached a consensus: the price increase would make the French wonder and simply lower the price, and when the French began to try to raise the price, the hope of success of the sale would be greatly increased.

Christina still maintained a suspicious expression, and Lin Youde glanced at the fox out of the corner of his eye, and the fox told Lin Youde with a code: Christina was a little shaken.

However, vacillation does not mean that things can be done, after all, the demand for pure monetary income is not particularly great for France now, and the more the better, of course, the more the merrier, but whether it is necessary to sell the land that was robbed by the fire for the sake of this wealth is another matter.

Lin also knew that there was no benefit in continuing the stalemate on the subject - the plan they had drawn up now would require the actions of the Jews to be coordinated, and the talks could only continue after the Jews had succeeded in creating the French government's demand for wealth. Everything we do today is the foundation laid for that moment.

So Lin Youde simply changed the topic, in this kind of meeting, when neither side of a question feels that there will be a result immediately, it is very normal to rush to the next topic, so Christina has no objection.

Next, Lin Youde and the French talked about a series of issues, including economic cooperation, and this part of the talks was relatively pleasant, after all, they talked about how to make a lot of money together and in harmony.

But after that, Christina's expression became stern.

"Mr. Lin, what I want to say next may cause you unpleasantness, so I'm sorry first." Christina paused, then continued, "Could you please remove your organization from France and its colonies?" ”

"The French part of the NERV is not affiliated with the German NERV." Lin Youde immediately threw out the rhetoric that had been prepared a long time ago, "You always think that I can lead these branches, but in fact this is a misunderstanding, the branches everywhere are spontaneously organized by people after accepting my ideas. ”

"But we know that the branch in France has a wireless telegraph transmitter and a corresponding cipher system, and we have received cipher codes from France more than once."

"Did you find a radio station within the NERV organization in France?" Lin Youde asked leisurely.

"Not yet, but ......"

"So how do you know for sure that those ciphers are not the work of spies in a certain country? For example, on the other side of the sea, your former rivals are very keen on espionage. ”

In the face of Lin Youde's practice of transferring hatred, Christina was silent.

Lin Youde looked at Christina with a frank expression, anyway, as long as she has no evidence that the NERV organization in France has a radio station, Lin Youde's statement that he cannot directly command is not flawed.

After the silence lasted for a while, Lin Youde took the initiative to break the silence and said: "I assure you, the only people I can directly control zhì are the NERV institutions in Germany and Vale that is mining outside. I am just a businessman and a capitalist, not a revolutionary trying to overthrow the existing system, I just want to make money for myself and make the people live a little better. If you've read my writings, you know I'm not lying. ”

"I've read your writings, so I know that panhumanism is not just a sociological idealism." It was Xia Li who spoke.

Christina glared at Xia Li unhappily, who immediately made a gesture of humility.

Then Christina turned to Lin Youde.

"Mr. Lin, if you can't agree to withdraw NERV and stop selling panhumanism to our territory, then I'm afraid we can't agree to the demand to sell Jerusalem."

Lin Youde nodded, indicating that he understood.

But what Lin Youde thought in his heart was that in a few days, you will rack your brains to ask me to raise the price, let's see.

(Finally a million words, twenty-nine hours later than scheduled, ashamed to be ashamed)
