The Last Man of Pirates
Chapter 181
The new plan is a big success.
At the beginning, Cobra even thought that the Kingdom of Tru could build nearly 20 engineering projects in his country, which was already very worthy of him, and he even thanked the other party countless times in his heart.
But this time Losta opened his mouth to talk about the entire plan within five years. When everyone heard it, it really shocked everyone present.
In fact, on the way here, Losta had communicated and negotiated with the more than 20 people who followed him to the Ministry of Commerce, which was also a preliminary touch of the bottom line that Alabasta could give. Now the other party can say that the tax exemption within five years has already met their initial requirements.
And the other party seemed to have directly supported the bottom line.
While exempting taxes for five years, although the basic engineering facilities are required to be built, even if they don't say it, Losta needs to prepare these things in advance.
The amount of rain in the entire country of Alabasta is very scarce, and most of the country is desert. If you want to develop large-scale business here in the future and use this country as your own business base, it is essential to improve the environment here.
The most important thing is that the other party is willing to provide troops free of charge to protect the safety of everyone, which is almost the same as what His Majesty the King mentioned when he came.
Losta sat in the same place and smiled slightly. What they wanted most was not these things, but one thing that the other party didn't care about at all, that is, to use their own abilities to promote the goods of the entire Tru Kingdom in the market of the Grand Route.
Otherwise, they would not have spent so much effort to choose to cooperate with the country of Alabasta in all aspects.
"Minister Zuo, we have been talking for so long, and your condition is obviously not sincere enough. Let's talk about more conditions that the Tru Kingdom can offer.
First, our country will invest more than 150 billion Baileys in the construction costs of Alabasta every year in the next five years, and strive to solve 1.5 million jobs in the entire Alabasta every year. I wonder what the Minister Zuo thinks of this result?"
"150 billion Baileys!"
Hearing what Losta said, even Cobra, who was sitting at the top, felt a little surprised.
What is the concept of 150 billion Baileys? I don't know if the entire Alabasta country can produce so much in five years, not to mention the expenditures that need to be made.
But the Minister of Commerce just opened his mouth and directly finalized the annual investment of 150 billion Baileys. For the entire Alabasta, let alone the king, even all the princes and ministers below were a little stunned.
But the conditions mentioned by the left minister are the bottom line of their country. For such a poor country, there is really nothing better to offer.
"I wonder what conditions Minister Losta wants our Alabasta country to offer?"
Cobra, who had been silent all the time, looked at his ministers, who were silent one by one and began to discuss, and finally couldn't help but ask directly.
He didn't want to speak at this time. After all, the two parties were still in the process of negotiation. As a king, once he spoke, he would be completely at a disadvantage.
But there was no way around it. The bargaining chips for the negotiation had been increased to such a large extent. They, Alabasta, had no bargaining chips to throw out again. They could only be at a disadvantage and let others make conditions.
Losta smiled again, then stood up and saluted to Cobra, saying, "Your Majesty King Cobra, our Tru Kingdom's request is very simple, that is, the Rapeseed Port will be used by the Tru Kingdom in the future, and it will have the right to dispose of this port and the right to operate it."
"That's it?"
The left minister sitting opposite him was suddenly shocked by such news.
For Alabasta, which has always been poor, a port is completely useless. In addition to docking ships, it is also necessary to be vigilant against the pirates coming from the port.
And due to the economic depression of the entire country, the Rapeseed Port is no longer what it used to be. It is now in a shabby state. Even the people of their own country are too lazy to clean it up. Now it is for the
The fact that the party invested so much, but only added a condition of a rapeseed port, really surprised all of them.
Facing the face of the left minister, Losta smiled slightly sinisterly.
This is a completely successful look. The people of this country do not realize the importance of a port, but for the Tru Kingdom, which has been operating nationwide business for a few years, the importance of a port is almost self-evident. Controlling the port is almost controlling the economic lifeline, especially in such a sea age.
Cobra frowned and sat there without saying a word. He couldn't figure out the purpose of Losta's request.
As the head of a country, although Cobra was a little difficult to understand the purpose of Losta's request, he always felt that there must be some unknown situations mixed in it.
But for him who doesn't understand business, I'm afraid even if he racks his brains, he can't guess the purpose of doing this.
A huge port not only has a strong commercial effect, but also can play a great deterrent role in military terms.
The port of the rapeseed land is the largest port in the country of Alabasta. If the commercial economy here is really developed in the future, this port will definitely become the absolute lifeline.
Although Cobra couldn't figure out what aspects were involved, the other party's conditions had been put forward, and everyone was waiting for his reply. In the end, he could only say helplessly, "I agree to Minister Losta's request!"
"Thank you, King Cobra. In the agreement signed by our two countries, we will clearly mark all these things. Then, at the fastest time, I think it will take at most two months, and we can start all-round construction work. I hope you can help us!"
Losta said to the princes and ministers sitting below with a smile.
