Naturally, Nashadir could not see the private actions of the two. Seeing Liu Zheng with a pale face, Nashadir couldn't help but ask: "Liu Shoufu, what's wrong with you?"
Liu Zheng glanced at Xie Chan, and Xie Chan coughed lightly.
Liu Zheng looked calm and calm: "It's nothing, I just have appendicitis."
"Appendicitis? What is appendicitis?" Nashadir looked confused.
Not only Nashadir, but also Xie Chan and Jiang Xuan heard this word for the first time.
Although they were a little curious, they didn't say anything. After all, there were so many new words in Liu Zheng's mouth that they no longer felt they were new after hearing them too much.
"Since Liu Shoufu is not feeling well, it's better to go back and rest as soon as possible. If something happens to you here, I can't bear it."
Nashadir looked nervous.
Although Nashadir has his own little thoughts, his current concern is not fake.
After all, Liu Zheng is his biggest financial backer now, and he plans to absorb Liu Zheng's energy to re-create an Arab empire at the junction of three continents.
This has always been Nashadir's ambition!
Of course, that's what he did.
He now relies on the Suez Canal and has reaped enough dividends in all aspects...
He was simply not having a good time these days.
French, British, East India Company, all kinds of dividends are rolling in.
For the first time, Nashadir felt that he was so popular...
He had no idea whether he should take the bonus or not... would there be a time when he would overturn. He only knows that he is the first person to occupy the Suez Canal. In this regard, Ling Chen should follow him and eat ashes!
Suez…
What a wonderful place!
This is the lifeblood of the Mediterranean. It is natural that so many big countries want to win over him.
"It's okay, General. The eating, drinking and fun are over. Now, we should talk about business."
Liu Zheng put down his wine glass with a smile and said lightly.
"This is nature, this is nature, Liu Shoufu, if there is anything you can do, please give me your instructions."
Nashadir knew that Liu Zheng came to see him first as soon as he arrived in Suez, so there must be something wrong. That's why I received him so grandly. At least no matter how ill-intentioned he is, he still has to straighten his butt...
"I can't talk about orders. After all, we have a cooperative relationship and are equals. I came here to talk to you about the development of the Suez Canal."
Nashadir's eyes lit up, the real show was finally here!
In fact, he was also waiting for Liu Zheng to talk to him about this matter.
At first, Nashadir fled from the Safi Dynasty, but after listening to Liu Zheng's words, he went straight to the Suez Strait. With his own troops and horses, he won this place in one fell swoop.
He paid a huge price for this!
First of all, it was the position of a governor in the Safavid dynasty!
Secondly, I took my brothers away from home, and their future was uncertain. At that time, there was still a lot of pressure from all aspects.
Again, before Ling Chen came here with East India, almost all the excavation work in Suez was started by Nashadir. The infrastructure troops in East India rushed here and took over the entire project.
Therefore, with the opening of Suez, Nashadir's profit sharing is also indispensable.
Liu Zheng chuckled: "Although the Suez Canal has been developed a long time ago, the technology at that time was too poor. The river was neither wide nor deep, and the canal's transportation capacity was not large. In addition, no one had repaired it for many years, and the river had long been silted up."
"Therefore, maritime trade is frequent, and rebuilding the Suez Canal is an urgent matter. I entrusted this matter to the general at the beginning. You and I will jointly develop it. We will provide the money and technology, and you will provide the manpower. You and I will split the profit 50-50. How about ?" Liu Zheng asked with a smile.
"What?"
Liu Zheng's words were really beyond Nashadir's expectations.
After all, when they were desperate, it was Liu Zheng's East India Company who showed them a clear path. Liu Zheng was their financial backer. However, the financial backer provided the money and technology for only half. To be honest, this is really quite conscientious. of.
Hearing Liu Zheng's words, Nashadir's eyes began to twinkle.
This Liu Zheng is indeed Liu Zheng...
His attitude towards himself is completely different from that of Ling Chen!
half!
Split in half!
To be honest, that’s a lot.
but……
Nashadir is not a person who knows how to be satisfied. Although he is a military commander and does not understand the current economy, the economic benefits of a place that can make the three major countries and even the whole of Europe pay close attention must be very considerable. !
If he could firmly control the Suez Canal and put 10% of the proceeds into his own pocket, what a huge fortune it would be!
Just thinking about it made Nashadir's eyes shine.
Although he is excited, he needs to restrain himself. After all, he is still afraid of Liu Zheng's powerful power. When he has full wings, it will not be too late to monopolize the canal profits!
"This, this, this... Mr. Liu, this... this is too much!"
Nashadir was already speechless, partly pretending, partly because he was really frightened, and even a little at a loss.
"only……"
Nashadir took a deep breath to hide the ambition in his eyes.
Liu Zheng chuckled: "Huh?"
Nashadir laughed, and then said cautiously: "Of course I have no objection to the dividends that the young master said... It's just that..."
He hesitated to speak.
Liu Zheng's eyes flashed as expected, and he laughed and said: "If you have any questions, the general will just tell you."
"Young Master, you are now the chief assistant of Long Yan...Young Master will definitely not be able to take care of the management of the Suez Canal. Then after this..."
Manager!
This is the most important thing!
Dividends, this and that, for Nashadir, none of them are more tempting than being the manager of the Suez Canal!
Only real power is real!
Nashadir is an ambitious man.
He doesn't want to be a waste who only takes bonuses! Besides, if you think about it on the negative side, the Suez Canal will bring you profits and so on, and the person in charge will do something fishy for you. Can you know? In this way, what percentage of dividends do you get, and what can you do?
Liu Zheng also looked as expected.
This Nashadir...
Still thinking about this.
But there’s nothing wrong with that.
If he were Nashadir, he would definitely consider this issue. After all, he was the first to arrive and develop this place. East India came directly to take over. More or less, Nashadir was unhappy in his heart.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Liu Zheng laughed and said: "General Nashadir, the question of who will be the person in charge... is still open to debate. After all, what I need is someone who can be versatile, well versed in business, put the interests of the canal first, and, A very loyal person...yes or not?"
Nashadir laughed loudly: "That's right!"
In terms of his own operations in Suez, he still feels that he is versatile and good at dancing...
only……
Liu Zheng's next words made his expression change drastically.
"Then, may I ask the general, what is the agreement with France?"
Liu Zheng asked with a smile.
Hearing this, Nashadir's smile stopped suddenly, and the hand holding the wine glass trembled.
"Son..."
This matter was his top secret. How did Liu Zheng know about it?
Although he was surprised, Nashadir had to pretend to be calm at this moment!
Now, the help he needs most is still Liu Zheng. Without the assistance of Liu Zheng East India Company, it would be difficult to achieve great things.
Furthermore, he was also afraid of Liu Zheng's force. If Liu Zheng was really anxious and let the "Human Massacre Lingchen" who caused trouble in Central Asia come over, his tens of thousands of troops would not be enough to fill his teeth!
The matter is top secret. Maybe Liu Zheng just heard a little bit about it. Now, he has to pretend to be confused! Once he has canal income, his power will continue to increase! When the troops and horses are strong, it will not be too late to fall out with Liu Zheng!
"Sir, where did this news come from? We have no agreement with France."
Nashadir said hahaha.
Liu Zheng showed a meaningful smile: "Really?"
Seeing Liu Zheng's smile, Nashadir also had some chills running down his spine.
Is it possible that Liu Zheng really has accurate information?
Although Liu Zheng looks kind, he must not be a good person if he can drive a humanoid beast like "Man Slaughter Lingchen". If he is really offended, the consequences will be disastrous!
Although Nashadir was worried in his heart, he still pretended to be calm: "Recently, some French businessmen have come to do business with us. Sir, you also know that Suez is a strategic location, and many eyes are watching it. Here, the British have taken Alexandria and marched into Egypt. They are eyeing us, so we must have some ability to defend ourselves."
"Although the assistance given by the young master is a lot, the war cannot be completed in a few days. There will be consumption, and I can't keep asking you for things, so I set my sights on France. Young Master, you can understand this. Right? Besides, our canal is just open for business, hahahaha!"
Nashadir's explanation was very reasonable, and even he almost believed it after he said it.
Hearing this, Liu Zheng smiled softly and said: "General, do you think that our Longyan intelligence system is just a bunch of losers?"
"Sir, what do you mean by this?"
Liu Zheng didn't hesitate and went straight to the decisive move.
"In the middle of this month, the general sent people to purchase a group of beauties from Central Asia, a total of thirty people. One of them lost his footing and fell off a cliff while urinating on the road. Deleha was kicked in the lower body and beheaded..."
"Three days later, Deleha led twenty-six Central Asian beauties back to life. He claimed that five people died due to accidents on the way, but in fact, three of them were found by him himself. When the general learned about this, he was furious and ordered someone to turn him into a After the eunuch, cut the body into pieces and feed it to the wolves.”
"..."
"Two days ago, the general had diarrhea. He went to the toilet four times in one morning..."
"The French side is here, but Christine?"
"General, you are doubting my IQ..."
"General, what I said was right?" Liu Zheng looked at Nashadir and asked with a smile.
"..."
Nashadir looked at Liu Zheng with a blank expression. At this moment, he was sweating.
It's really terrifying. What Liu Zheng said is true to every word!
He even knew how many times he went to the toilet in a day. Long Yan's intelligence system was so terrifying!
Now, Nashadir was really panicking. Liu Zheng must have known everything about his deal with France. Will his attempt to deceive him arouse Liu Zheng's anger?
