Chapter 500 disagreement
Chapter 500 Divergence
The matter of cooperation on the lunar land has been dragged on until today, and formal negotiations can finally be made. The concern of more and more powerful countries has also made the resources of the moon a hot topic. The United States is hurrying to explore the moon, but the Mars project is pulling their capital chain, so it is difficult to choose between left and right.
The grouping of Europe is also expected. The EU allows countries to cooperate with each other very frequently. If the EU also involves a closer military alliance as envisaged many years ago, the role of NATO will be greatly weakened, and Europe will stand on its own. .
The government is trying to seize the time to negotiate, ministerial-level informal meetings continue, and finally decided to hold a multi-national meeting in Cagliari on December 10. This time, not only Britain, France and Germany, but other European countries are also interested and want to participate Come to the Moon Alliance program.
An Feng doesn’t mind a lot of people… Anyway, Sardinia can’t get that much area.
The person in charge of the aerospace company will also participate in discussions with the government, because they are national aviation contractors, and state-owned enterprises have no technology to develop aviation at all. An Feng also discussed the main issues and cooperation principles with the company’s management, and then he let them handle it.
Internationally lively, but the royal family’s life is quiet, they continue to organize activities in early December.
It is a must-have project for families to let children get close to nature, experience life and exercise every year. After Christmas break in December, the royal family will go to the hunting palace in Nuoro for a week or more before returning before Christmas.
They also send out invitations for friends to attend.
Hunting Palace ushered in a rare and busy year. The hosts and guests moved in one after another. After the children grew up, the frequency of use of independent rooms increased. Coupled with a group of attendants, the lineup was very large. After the hunting time began, the people in full armor set off.
There are eight cars alone, and the number of hounds has been expanded to fifteen. Two tigers, Xiaobai and Xiaohei, also came to play as cameos to experience the fun of chasing in the jungle. Also because there were too many people, it became an outing. Everyone was talking and laughing with guns on their shoulders. At noon, they looked for a place to have a picnic.
An Feng is also used to it, the real hunting still has to go to the vast Africa.
It’s good to gather for a picnic in the forest. More than a dozen people mobilize together. The servants are not allowed to help. It’s their turn to sit down and enjoy. The master and his friends are busy together, adding wood and fire, roasting meat and cooking soup, whether they will also intervene, and the children often make their heads look ashamed.
When Jessica, who was in charge of lighting the fire, looked up, Edward, who was opposite her, sat down happily on the ground: “Haha, look at your pretty face!”
“What!” Jessica exclaimed, jumping up and wanting to use her hands, Alice reminded: “Don’t use your hands!”
“Oh Maika, isn’t it scary?” Jessica asked nervously. The girl is eighteen years old, which happens to be the age that cares most about appearance and beauty.
“A little bit.” Alice handed her a towel, “wipe the left cheek.”
“Look at them.” Charlie’s son Carl, who was skewering the barbecue, said to Fred, “I said women are unreliable, especially in this kind of thing.”
“Really?” Margaret stood behind them silently.
Fred turned his head: “Hi, Maggie!”
“Hi!” said Margaret.
“You know we don’t mean that.” Fred hesitated, “We just think it’s a little… uncommon.”
“I know, I can understand.” Margaret said to Fred gently, and then glared at her brother: “But Carl, be careful with your words!”
“Ahh!” Carl was crying, “Why do you treat us differently?”
Margaret walked away with a smile: “Because… I won’t tell you!”
Beside Edward muttered: “The future princess will learn to protect her own man. I will give her ten points. Jesse, you will never be able to do it in your life!”
“Don’t talk nonsense!” Alice smiled and touched him with her elbow.
Jessica confronted: “We just know it in our hearts.”
“Haha, I agree!” Edward smiled, “It seems that Jesse has a talent for gossip since you were a child, do you want to be a paparazzi in the future?”
Jessica glared at him: “Don’t call me ‘Jessie’ a second time, that’s a boy’s name!”
“Huh?” Edward stared at her unobtrusive **** in surprise, “Aren’t we good brothers? My brother! Hum?”
“Do you want to die? Try screaming again?” Jessica was already gearing up now, and Alice quickly grabbed her: “Be a lady! Relax!”
The parents who came back from picking up the seasoning all laughed. When they were alone, they were a chaotic circle of underage children and adult children. In outdoor occasions, the demeanor of a gentleman and a lady is put aside, but it also conforms to the principle of coming out to relax yourself, just be happy.
When counting the children’s trophies a few days later, Roger was very satisfied: “It’s a good experience, exercising them occasionally, and it can better shape the tenacity of character.”
Miranda said: “It can also enhance the relationship. From unfamiliarity to familiarity and cooperation, it only takes a few days. This is a very precious life experience.”
Charlie said: “I agree.”
An Feng leaned against the tree trunk next to him and said, “It’s like when we were young, isn’t it?”
Miranda laughed: “Roger always messed up simple things. When he was camping on a hunting ground in Texas, he was full of bad ideas.”
“No?” Roger began to quibble, “I think it’s a manifestation of personality, something that can only be thought of by a unique genius—”
“I don’t agree.” An Feng shook his head, “At the beginning you insisted on the original taste, and you set up a tent to camp outside in winter, but you woke up in the middle of the night and slipped back by yourself.”
Charlie was curious: “Is there such a thing?”
Several children also gathered around and looked at An Feng: “Father (uncle), tell us about it.”
Roger Zou frowned: “Why don’t I remember?”
“That was more than twenty years ago.” An Feng said with a smile, “You guys haven’t even been born yet.”
Roger came to a sudden: “Twenty years ago… Time flies so fast—but it’s also your part, right?”
The children looked at An Feng again.
“Is there?” An Feng naturally wanted to quibble, “You must have made a mistake, old man! Remember to take more medicines to prevent Alzheimer’s in the future!”
“No, no, you must have been involved, as soon as you say it, I will understand! Miranda can testify.”
“Joanna can also testify, I certainly do not.”
“If she can testify, it proves that you have gone back, don’t try to circle around here, grandpa!”
Joanna shook her head: “I don’t participate!”
“Me too.” Miranda, “I think it was ten years ago, right?”
“Of course, I’m definitely not that old,” Joanna said.
The children laughed when they saw these people reminiscing about the past more than 20 years ago and attacking each other as old men and old monsters.
…
After the Hunting Palace holiday, return to the city.
The multinational leaders’ meeting that ended three days ago has made good progress. In addition to the three major countries, other small countries also want to let Sardinia “manage” part of the lunar land for them, at the cost of paying management fees and providing maintenance , until they are able to develop it themselves.
There are many specific details. The Prime Minister routinely came to the Moncalieri Palace to report to the Queen and talked about the benefits that Sardinia can obtain. They will use 800,000 square kilometers of lunar land For Corsica, which is more than 8,000 square kilometers on the earth.
“A hundred times?” Joanna said, “A key strategic resource in the future, in exchange for an island with few resources?”
“The French said that although the moon has resources, they are only resources. Corsica on the earth has not many resources, but it has all the conditions of the earth, including sufficient air and land, a livable environment and a future. Strategic location with great potential.”
“The eloquence is really good.” Joanna smiled, “What about other countries, just use money and trade as the terms of the transaction?”
“Basically so.” Mancini said.
Joanna asked: “What’s the wind direction in Corsica? Have you ever been in contact?”
Mancini replied: “We are going to contact the leaders of the other party’s civil rights movement the day after tomorrow to discuss formally.”
…
Things have been very smooth so far, and it is also in line with An Feng’s consideration of interests. He has money and benefits, and he only needs a little more technology and expenses. Judging from the maintenance costs of other countries, some of the vacancies can also be filled… But the problem lies with Corsica.
Officials in Sardinia started discussions with France and Corsica. They were more open-minded about the issue of secession. It was different from decades ago. At that time, France did not encounter any setbacks and its national strength was strong. Too much, the economy has suffered, and technology has not recovered… Now they urgently need a very economical way to get out of the crisis, and at the same time have sufficient technological guarantees.
There is no dispute on this issue, but Corsica wants to form a United Kingdom with Sardinia.
It means that the United Kingdom is similar to the United Kingdom, consisting of England, Scotland and Northern Ireland. All regions have the right to self-government. Except for diplomatic and military rights, everything else is available. It is also a bit like the federal states of the United States. Officials, however, are divided on this assumption.
If it is the United Kingdom, it means that they can act as an independent whole, and the whole people can decide to join or leave-not participate as a whole. Like the independence referendum. If this kind of thing happens in the future, Sardinia has the risk of losing all its investment.
So the government is divided.
Finally, they asked the Queen about her attitude, and Joanna said that she could not accept the existence of the so-called “United Kingdom of Sardinia and Corsica”. At most, she allowed Corsica to be merged into Sardinia as two provinces. The referendum will also be a matter for all citizens of the kingdom.
You can consider giving some autonomy, but you must accept the jurisdiction of the kingdom as a whole. Considering the local population and social atmosphere, it is necessary to have the kingdom’s armed forces. If the most basic agreement cannot be reached, the queen will not assent and sign this bill.
This is one of the few times Joanna has rejected the government’s proposal.
According to the practice of a constitutional monarchy, she has no right to choose yes or no, but when it comes to the constitution, the kingdom belongs to the land she entrusts the government to manage. If the queen disagrees but the government agrees, it is only the government’s land and not the queen’s. Can be defined as…rebellion.
The contradictory opposition is revealed through high-level dialogue.
The Sardinian government and parliament are currently unable to oppose their queen on this point. First of all, the whole people disagree, and secondly, the government is loyal to their queen, so many politicians will respect the attitude of the queen. In the end, there was no agreement, and the representatives of Sardinia withdrew.
