Chapter 525 Differences
The cooperation on lunar land has been delayed to this day and can finally be formally negotiated. The concern of more and more powerful countries has also made the resources of the moon a hot topic. The United States is catching up on the moon to explore the moon, but the Mars plan is tying their capital chain and it is difficult to make a decision.
Europe's group is also expected. The EU allows countries to cooperate with each other very frequently. If the EU really involves a closer military alliance as planned many years ago, NATO's role will be greatly weakened and Europe will stand up for its own business.
The government was rushing to talk, and informal meetings at the ministerial level continued, and finally decided to hold a multi-national talks in Cagliari on December 10. This time, not only Britain, France and Germany, but other European countries were also interested and wanted to participate in the lunar alliance plan.
An Feng doesn't mind the number of people... Anyway, Sardinia can't get that much area.
The person in charge of the aerospace company will also participate in the discussion with the government because they are national aviation contractors and state-owned enterprises do not have any technology to develop aviation. Anfeng also discussed the main matters and cooperation principles with the company's management, and then he let them deal with it.
The international community was lively, but the royal family's days were quiet, and they continued to organize activities in early December.
It is a must-have item for families to get children close to nature, experience life and exercise every year. After Christmas break in December, royal members will go to the Hunting Palace in Nuoro to stay for a week or more before returning before Christmas.
They will also send invitations to attend with friends.
The Hunting Palace ushered in a rare and busy day. The host and guests checked in one after another. After the children grew up, the frequency of use of ** rooms increased. In addition, a group of servants, the lineup was very large. After the hunting time began, the fully armed people set off.
There were eight cars alone, and the hunting dogs expanded to fifteen. Two tigers, Xiaobai and Xiaohei, also came to play guest appearances to experience the fun of chasing in the jungle. Because there were too many people, it turned into an outing, and everyone was just holding guns and chatting and laughing. At noon, they found a place to have a picnic.
An Feng was also used to it. He still had to go to the vast Africa when he actually hunted.
It was good to gather in the forest for a picnic. More than a dozen people mobilized together, and the servants were not allowed to help. It was their turn to sit down and enjoy it. The owner and his friends were busy, adding firewood and adding fire, barbecue and cooking soup. Whether they would be inserted or not, the children would often get dirty.
When Jessica, who was in charge of making the fire, looked up. Edward opposite her sat down on the ground happily: "Haha, look at your pretty face!"
"What!" Jessica exclaimed, jumping up and trying to use her hands. Alice reminded: "Don't use your hands!"
"Oh Maiga, isn't it scary?" Jessica said nervously. The girl's family was eighteen years old, and she was the age when she cared about her appearance and beauty the most.
"It's a little bit." Alice handed her a hand towel, "wipe the face on her left."
"Look at them." Charlie's son Carl skewers of barbecue. He said to Fred, "I just say women are unreliable, especially this kind of thing."
"Really?" Margaret stood silently behind them.
Fred turned his head: "Hi Maggie!"
"Hi!" said Margaret.
"You know that's not what we meant." Fred hesitated, "we just think it's a little... rare."
"I know, I can understand." Margaret gently looked at Fered, then glared at her brother: "But Carl, be careful of your words!"
"Oh!" Carl cried, "Why do you treat us differently?"
Margaret smiled and walked away: "Because... I won't tell you!"
Edward next to him muttered: "The future princess has learned to protect her man. I will give her tens of dollars, and you will never be able to do it in your life, Jesse!"
"Don't talk nonsense!" Alice smiled and touched him with her elbow.
Jessica met: "Just know it in our hearts."
"Haha, I agree!" Edward smiled, "It seems that Jesse, you have had the talent for gossip since you were a child. Should you become a paparazzi in the future?"
Jessica glared at him: "Don't call me 'Jesse' the second time. That's the boy's name!"
"Ah?" Edward stared at her breasts that were not yet visible, "Aren't we good brothers? My brother!hum?"
"You want to die, do you? Try to call it again?" Jessica was ready to beat her, and Alice quickly grabbed her: "Be a lady! Relax!"
The parents who came back from getting seasonings all laughed. When they were alone, they were just a chaotic circle of underage and naughty children. In outdoor occasions, they even put the demeanor of gentlemen and ladies behind them, but they also conform to the principle of relaxing themselves and just be happy.
When counting the children's trophy a few days later, Roger was very satisfied: "A good experience, occasionally training them can better shape the tenacity of the character."
Miranda said: "It can also enhance feelings, from being unfamiliar to being familiar with cooperation, in just a few days, it is a very valuable life experience."
Charlie said: "I agree, too."
An Feng leaned against the trunk next to him and said, "It's like when we were young, wasn't it?"
Miranda smiled: "Roger always messed up simple things. When he used to camp in Texas, he was full of bad ideas."
"No?" Roger began to argue, "I think that is a manifestation of personality, something that only a unique genius can think of-"
"I don't agree." An Feng shook his head, "You insisted on the authenticity, and set up a tent outside for camping in winter, but in the end you woke up in the middle of the night and slipped back by yourself."
Charlie was curious: "There is still something?"
Several children also surrounded him and looked at An Feng: "Dad (uncle), tell us."
Roger frowned: "Why don't I remember?"
"That happened more than twenty years ago." An Feng said with a smile, "You little guys are not born yet."
Roger suddenly realized: "Twenty years ago... Time flies so fast - but you have your share, right?"
The children looked at An Feng again.
"Is that?" An Feng naturally wanted to argue, "You remembered it wrongly, old man! Remember to take more medicine to prevent Alzheimer's disease in the future!"
"No, you must have participated, I will know as soon as you say it! Miranda can testify."
"Joanna can testify, I certainly don't."
"She can testify that you have been back. Don't think about going around here, grandpa!"
Joanna shook her head: "I won't participate!"
"So too." Miranda, "I remember it was ten years ago, right?"
"Of course, I'm not that old," said Joanna.
The children looked at the old man and the old monster who were recalling the past twenty years ago and attacked each other. They all laughed.
...
After the Hunting Palace holiday, return to the city.
The multinational leaders' meeting ended three days ago has made good progress. In addition to three large countries, other small countries also want Sardinia to "manage" part of the lunar land for them, at the cost of paying management fees and providing maintenance until they can develop on their own.
There are many specific details. The Prime Minister routinely came to the Moncalerie Palace to report to the Queen. He also talked about the benefits that Sardinia could obtain. They would exchange 800,000 square kilometers of lunar land for Corsica on the earth for more than 8,000 square kilometers of earth.
"One hundred times?" said Joanna, "a key strategic resource for the future, exchanged for an island with little resources?"
"The French said that although the moon has resources, it is only resources. The Corsica on the earth has few resources except for many resources. Other conditions on the earth include sufficient air and land, a livable environment and a strategic location with great future potential."
"It's so good to be eloquent." Joanna smiled, "What about other countries, just use money and trade as transaction conditions?"
"It's basically that," Mancini said.
Joanna asked: "What is the wind in Corsica? Have you ever had any contact?"
Mancini replied: "We are preparing to contact the leaders of the other party's civil rights movement the day after tomorrow and discuss it."
...
Things have been very smooth so far, and it is in line with An Feng’s consideration of interests. He has money and benefits, so he only needs to spend more technology and expenses. Judging from the maintenance costs of other countries, some of the vacancy can be filled... But the problem lies with Corsica.
Official staff of Sardinia discussed with France and Corsica, and were relatively open-minded about the issue of separation, which was different from decades ago. At that time, France did not encounter any setbacks and its national strength was strong. However, after the disease and disaster, there was too much population loss, economic setbacks, and technology was in a slump... Now they urgently need a very cost-saving way to get rid of the crisis and have sufficient technology guarantees.
This issue is no longer controversial, but Corsica, they want to form a United Kingdom with Sardinia.
It means that the United Kingdom, which is similar to the United Kingdom, consisting of England, Scotland and Northern Ireland, has autonomy in various places. In addition to diplomatic and military rights, everything else has, and is a bit like the various federal states of the United States. However, there are official differences over this idea.
If it is the United Kingdom, it means that they can be the whole of the people, and the whole people decide to join or leave - rather than participate in the whole. For example, if this happens in a day, Sardinia has the risk of losing all its investment.
So there was a disagreement in the government.
Finally, when they asked the queen about her attitude, Joanna said she could not accept the so-called "United Kingdom of Sardinia and Corsica". At most, she allowed Corsica to be incorporated into Sardinia as two provinces, and the future referendum will also be the affairs of all the citizens of the kingdom.
Some autonomy can be considered, but overall, it is necessary to accept the jurisdiction of the kingdom. Considering the local population and social atmosphere, it is necessary to enter the kingdom's armed forces. If the most basic agreement cannot be reached, the queen will not agree and sign the bill.
This is one of the few proposals that Joanna has denied the government.
According to the convention of constitutional monarchy, she has no right to choose yes or no, but extending to the constitution, the kingdom belongs to the land she entrusts to manage. If the queen disagrees and the government agrees, it is only the land of the government, not the queen, which can be defined as...rebellion.
Contradictory oppositions emerge 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. Secondly, the government is loyal to their queen, so many politicians will respect the queen's attitude. In the end, the negotiations cannot be reached, and the Sardinian representative evacuated.
