Chapter 415: Present tense
"Simply put, the British man named Rosy Yi. His judgment was correct, because this has been confirmed." The old man looked at Benoit and said in a deep voice: "Although Europe is developing now, and there is even a better trend to develop. But we will eventually encounter bottlenecks..."
The old man sat down slowly and looked at Benoit and said word by word: "The possible development space of China will give us an opportunity to avoid risks."
Benoit didn't say anything, just nodded. The development of the legion was completed step by step. The cleaning in France that year greatly damaged the legion's vitality. It was also from that time that the legion learned not to put eggs in a basket. Through various means, the legion gradually recovered its vitality.
Then the activity gradually became low-key, and at the same time it dispersed its assets and moved its headquarters out and placed it in a small public in Monaco. The low-key penetration made their strength stronger than before. But the action became much gentler. They suffered a loss once and finally learned their lesson.
There will be special regional heads such as the Cialis family in the Legion, and these heads will serve in the Legion. The Legion and they maintain cooperative relationships and support relationships. The new family must go through many tests before they can gradually enter the Legion internal system.
If the old family does not train qualified successors, they will gradually be excluded from the core of the legion's power. In this way, the legion maintains its operation. However, the legion will not immediately cancel the family that once supported the legion and its position in the legion.
This is a gradual reduction process. If there are no suitable characters in two or even three generations in a row, then leaving the core layer will become inevitable.
Most of the income of the early legions was accomplished through lending, land, donations, etc. But this brought great hidden dangers to the legions, especially when the legions' capital accumulation was huge enough to threaten the country. They were abandoned by the Holy See and purged by the French monarch at that time.
After that, the army learned its lesson. After they recovered, the first thing they did was to investigate which companies were worth investing in. Then, they tried every means to invest in these companies and companies. They acquired certain shares in it, but these were not carried out in their own capacity.
Agents like the Cialis family have become their tentacles to extend. From finance to all walks of life, they gradually have a certain influence in the country of agents. Then, they can influence the House of Commons.
With the distribution of agents, they can only rely on the legion to complete the coordination of all aspects. Benoit also knew in his heart that France must be more than the ones supported by them. They belong to the highest level of agents in the legion. If there is a problem with the Cialis family, then there will definitely be other substitutes of the family affiliated to the second-level.
"Bernoit, you know. Now the main assets of the Legion are distributed in Europe and America. At present, these investments are high-quality investments. But what about it later?!" The old man didn't say it. But Bennoit already understood that the Legion was about to start entering China.
Speaking of China and the Legion, we have to go back a long time ago. In fact, the Legion had entered China a long time ago. Unfortunately, due to various reasons, the Legion's forces were forced to withdraw from China in full. For decades, this has been a blank area for the Legion.
"The Legion wants to return to China this time, not to say it wants to create an influence like Europe and the United States." The old man looked at Benoit and whispered: "We are very self-aware. We don't expect to affect anything in this country. We are just quiet and formally doing business. We may do some investments and have some cooperation with the official. But apart from that, we will not interfere in any other issues."
Benoit smiled. This is the safest and smartest way. China is the same as the Soviet Union in the past, or they hate other people's intervention more than the Soviet Union. If the legion dares to show this sign, then they will not have any partners.
Moreover, Benoit deals with China better than others. You should know that the first Western country to establish diplomatic relations with China was France. At that time, General Charles de Gaulle was in charge of France. The first group to represent France to China was Benoit's father.
In fact, it is also for this reason that Benoit did not suffer too much in the issue of coming to China. Some of the old people they had met with were still there. Chinese people are more nostalgic, and the Legion really couldn't find someone more suitable for Benoit to do this matter.
The lively wedding ended soon, and the crowds of people coming to attend the wedding began to dissipate. Houjia Village returned to peace. At different times, a battalion troops drove up next to Houjia Village. When the leader first arrived, he entered the village and called Hou Laohu respectfully to the old squad leader.
Then he left the village and started working in the tinkling mountain behind Houjia Village. In a month, a camp covering an area of about 30 acres, with high walls, shooting ranges, playgrounds, etc., was established. Then Hou Dasheng was invited to go in, leaving early and returning late.
New and slow changes began in the camp. Small buildings, bunkers, bunkers and trenches began to appear. Their styles and patterns were completely different. There was no difference in appearance, but small buildings or villas with completely different internal structures were also created.
It has to be admitted that the speed and quality of the Chinese engineering troops were completely useless in their work. At the same time, batches of weapons and ammunition were escorted here by a group of soldiers. Ten kilometers from Houjia Village were all marked as restricted areas.
Hou Laohu was not surprised by this, but he just hung his head and should have taken the village boys to practice boxing. Running the mountain is no different from that in daily life. Lisa is even simpler. The private dishes she discussed with Hou Dasheng are in preparation.
So she naturally had to choose a place. Before, Benoit was decorated in a good place. Without spending any effort, Lisa contracted it. Of course, she used Hou Dasheng's name. The next thing was the decoration and a thorough renovation. Lisa did not take all the guesthouses, even if she was willing, the others would not!
She just contracted a part of the back mountain of the guesthouse, and then built and renovated it by herself. Adhering to the spirit of high-end, Lisa quickly found a professional designer to start a comprehensive architectural design. Everything seemed to be going in an orderly manner.
