Expedition to Europe
Chapter 419 The strike begins
There was a time when Qin Zhiyuan was worried about whether he could leave offspring.
Now it seems that this problem does not exist.
Julie has been pregnant for four months. Calculating the time, it was probably around the Spring Festival when Qin Zhiyuan successfully sowed seeds.
Pregnant Julie became extremely sensitive and extremely dependent on Qin Zhiyuan. She could hardly leave him for a moment.
Qin Zhiyuan certainly enjoyed family life very much, so he kept delaying his return to Lanfang.
Julie's pregnancy reaction was very serious and has not ended yet. Not only can she not eat greasy food every day, but she can't even hear it. As long as she hears these two words, she will almost vomit her stomach.
Qin Zhiyuan is a big man and has no experience in serving pregnant women. So Anne and Qin Zhiyuan's aunt, Qin Zhisheng's mother, moved into the Black Swan Castle, together with Julie's sister Natalie and Qin Zhisheng's wife Shen to serve Julie.
There is also Micha and Geraldine.
There is no way. This is Qin Zhiyuan's first offspring and the first heir to the Grand Duchy of Lanfang. No matter how much attention is paid, it is not too much.
This unborn child has now attracted widespread attention.
Not only in France and Lanfang, but the whole world is concerned about whether the child is a boy or a girl, what he or she looks like, black hair or blonde hair.
And what nationality will the child be.
Qin Zhiyuan is still a dual citizen, French nationality plus Lanfang nationality, but Qin Zhiyuan's child is not necessarily.
If the child is born in France, then there is no doubt that the child will have French nationality, but considering that the child will be the head of the Grand Duchy of Lanfang in the future, it is a bit unreasonable to have a French nationality.
Qin Zhiyuan is fine, there are certain historical reasons. If Qin Zhiyuan's child, that is, the next king of Lanfang, is still a French nationality, then I really don't know what the Lanfang people will think.
Just a few days ago, Lanfang Prime Minister Huang Bohan and the Lanfang Cabinet sent a telegram to Qin Zhiyuan, saying that if the queen did not return to Lanfang to give birth, the Lanfang Cabinet would collectively resign in protest.
If this really happened, Qin Zhiyuan would not look good.
So Qin Zhiyuan came to Clemenceau this time, and he also meant to say goodbye.
"I still hope Julie can stay in Paris. Let's not talk about the heir to the throne. At least if she stays in Paris, Julie can be better taken care of. After all, Paris has better medical and health conditions." Clemenceau opposed Julie to go to Lanfang.
Standing in Clemenceau's position, Clemenceau certainly hoped that the next king of Lanfang would still be a French citizen. It would be best if all future kings were French citizens. In that case, France would have a natural ally in the international arena.
Once Qin Zhiyuan and Julie return to Lanfang, the variables will be too great.
"In fact, the conditions in Lanfang are not bad. The Prime Minister has built a castle in Bali that is exactly the same as the Black Swan Castle. It is now nearly completed, just to eliminate Julie's sense of strangeness. The scenery on that island is beautiful, with blue sky and white clouds, sunshine and beaches. To be honest, it is much better than Paris. If you have the opportunity to see it, you will definitely fall in love with it at first sight." Qin Zhiyuan did not miss the opportunity to advertise.
"It's as if you have been there!" Clemenceau is not yearning. He still wants to continue to develop in the political arena and does not want to retreat now.
Well, Qin Zhiyuan can only stop here. He can't just say that you will lose miserably in the next presidential election. It's the best choice to retire like Foch now.
Foch has now accepted another marshal position granted by Belgium. He has decided to retire and has no other concerns now.
After retirement, Foch will return to Lanfang with Qin Zhiyuan and Julie. After all, for Foch, it is better for him not to express any opinions on France in the future, so as to ensure a perfect image.
Then the best way to deal with it is to keep it out of sight and out of mind.
Yeah, distance creates beauty.
Qin Zhiyuan's farewell is just a small episode for Clemenceau. Clemenceau is now concerned about the Paris Peace Conference and doesn't pay much attention to Qin Zhiyuan's decision.
Clemenceau was definitely a big shot during the Paris Peace Conference. On many things, US President Wilson and British Prime Minister Lloyd George also had to listen to Clemenceau's opinions.
Unfortunately, this is also the last glory of France. In the future, France's status will continue to decline.
After saying goodbye to Clemenceau, Qin Zhiyuan went to say goodbye to Raymond Poongarai, and at Raymond Poongarai's invitation, he stayed at the Elysee Palace to have lunch with Raymond Poongarai.
The meeting was held in the restaurant of the Elysee Palace, and only Qin Zhiyuan and Raymond Poongarai sat at the huge long table.
This was a private dinner, so the dishes were not served according to the traditional procedure of French banquets, but all served at once.
There were small snails and caviar that Qin Zhiyuan loved the most, which made Qin Zhiyuan very satisfied.
After Raymond Poongarai's personal attendant served the dishes, Raymond Poongarai waved everyone away and asked someone to close the door of the restaurant, so that only Qin Zhiyuan and Raymond Poongarai were left in the restaurant.
"Qin, I want to continue to run for the next president. On this issue, I want to hear your opinion." Raymond Poongarai asked Qin Zhiyuan for his opinion during the meal.
Raymond Poincaré had been president since before the World War, and France was ruled by Raymond Poincaré throughout the World War.
Raymond Poongarai also witnessed how Qin Zhiyuan went from a "laborer" to the position of French general step by step. At the same time, because of his stake in the United Oil Company, Raymond Poongarai could get millions of francs in dividends every month, which made Raymond Poongarai pay attention to Qin Zhiyuan's opinions.
"If you want to hear the truth, then I suggest you don't." Qin Zhiyuan said bluntly.
"Why?" Raymond Poongarai was unwilling.
"Now that the war is over, France needs to carry out post-war reconstruction, the economy needs to be restored, veterans need to be resettled, and the interests of all parties need to be coordinated. It can be imagined that no matter who is the president or prime minister, they will face thorny problems, because he cannot satisfy everyone, and will definitely sacrifice the interests of some people to obey the overall situation. And this will definitely arouse a strong backlash from the sacrificed part. So at this time, if I were you, I would choose to watch the fire from the other side of the river, and then when the contradictions cannot be reconciled, I would come out and cheer and repeat what you did in the world war." Qin Zhiyuan spoke from the heart.
Judging from the current reputation, although Clemenceau has more power, in terms of reputation, Clemenceau is far inferior to Raymond Poincaré.
The Paris Peace Conference was a "muddy" meeting, which would definitely hurt the interests of some countries. Raymond Poincaré wisely gave up the opportunity to lead the Paris Peace Conference and gave all the power to Clemenceau.
The original text is available at 6 # 9 @Books/Bar!
Clemenceau has been overwhelmed by the full power. Clemenceau is swimming freely in the ocean of power, enjoying the glory and pleasure brought by power, but he does not realize that the water in this ocean is getting less and less.
Clemenceau is like a giant in the sea, and sooner or later he will be stranded on the shallows.
"It is precisely because this is an extraordinary time that I want to turn the tide." Raymond Poincaré is ambitious.
"This is a good idea, but not everyone can do it. No matter how much you do, there will always be people who think they have been treated unfairly, and this cannot be reconciled. Besides, the Bolsheviks in Moscow coming to power will definitely trigger a wave of socialism in Europe. France has already shown this trend, and you should have noticed it." Qin Zhiyuan had bad intentions.
"Are you talking about the National Alliance? What kind of socialism are they? They are a group of capitalists. Do the proletarians think they can represent themselves?" Raymond Poongarai said with disdain.
"The National Alliance" is an organization that was just established last month. Its members are all large, medium and small bourgeoisie. The National Alliance is now very powerful and has decided to participate in the parliamentary elections.
"Don't care what they are. As long as they can win the parliamentary elections, they will have the power to form a cabinet. At that time, no matter who is president, they will inevitably be restricted." Qin Zhiyuan still disagreed.
"How about we form a political party to run for election?" Raymond Poongarai had a brainwave.
Raymond Poingarai, who led France to win the World War, now has great prestige. Qin Zhiyuan, who led the Foreign Legion and the French army to drive the German army out of France, actually also has great prestige. If these two people join forces, they may really win the election.
"Please, Lan Fang alone is enough to give me a headache. I don't want to add the burden of France." Qin Zhiyuan was in a big headache.
"Hey... France is not your burden, but your glory. You should feel excited." Raymond Poingarai was dissatisfied with Qin Zhiyuan's attitude.
"Raymond, if you are sure to run for election, I can cheer for you, publicly express my support for you, and even provide the funds needed for the campaign. But I will not participate in it, you know." Qin Zhiyuan was decisive.
After listening to Qin Zhiyuan's words, Raymond Poingarai blinked his little eyes and stared at Qin Zhiyuan without blinking.
Qin Zhiyuan was calm and ate and drank.
"Okay, I understand your attitude. Actually, I have already decided not to run for the election since you just told me the reason." Raymond Poongarai laughed it off.
"Haha, I'm glad we have reached a consensus again." Qin Zhiyuan said half true and half false.
Raymond Poongarai is a politician, so Qin Zhiyuan will not easily believe any of Raymond Poongarai's words, including this one just now.
After leaving the Elysee Palace, Qin Zhiyuan finally felt relaxed. Looking at the people rushing to and fro on the street, Qin Zhiyuan felt sincerely relieved.
Finally, he didn't have to stay in Paris any longer, which made Qin Zhiyuan feel an urge to return to Lanfang and do a big job.
"General, Lanfang called: This morning, a large-scale strike occurred at Wanghaizhou Steel Plant. A total of more than a thousand workers refused to go to work and prevented others from entering the factory. The workers demanded shorter working hours, reduced intensity, increased wages and benefits, and at the same time demanded trade union reform." Gao Hongshi hurried to report.
What happened in Lanfang in the morning was reported to France in the afternoon. This speed was already very fast.
Huang Bohan knew Qin Zhiyuan's current work focus, so he would not disturb Qin Zhiyuan with trivial matters.
Now that Lan Fang sent a telegram, it means that the situation has exceeded Huang Bohan's scope of handling.
