On the train to Port Blanca, Sanjesé and his team from the Radical Party Propaganda Department were discussing a series of plans to cause trouble. He had reserved the three carriages at the end, and Delta security officers with loaded ammunition stood around the carriages. , responsible for security work.

This time he continued to deploy 100 security guards from Putrajaya to Port Blanca, including some security guards with training experience.

It has its own security school in Putrajaya. Currently, Delta Security Company has enough talent reserves, so it can be replenished quickly.

Currently, there are many unemployed people in Argentina. There are enough security personnel who can be trained and the wages are good. Even when you are old, you can continue to work as an instructor, or you can arrange to work as a security guard in a factory, and the remuneration is still very good.

Moreover, the combat effectiveness of these people cannot be underestimated. They are at least better than those Argentine Army soldiers, and their loyalty is guaranteed.

Saint Jesé has actually always been a little confused as to why the Argentine military's combat effectiveness, especially its army, was so low, especially during the Falklands War. In addition to external reasons such as national strength, national systems, equipment, and military training, there is one reason that is easily overlooked. of.

He also carefully studied some information given by Commander Tomps. One of the important reasons is probably to allow the army to engage in commercial activities. This is the bad leader of Juan Bilon. This not only strengthens the former Caudillo politics,

It also created the large and small de facto warlords in Argentina today, which was also the foundation of Argentina's military government in the next few decades. Fortunately, these warlords were not completely integrated with the local government and could not cause division.

After all, even warlords like the former Little Tomps only have the strength but not the ability to govern, and they are willing to unite around Putrajaya. They will not stay in one place and will be mobilized when they are told. Such authority There are still some. All the local administrative regions in Argentina are about to become provinces.

Coupled with Argentina's non-ethnic policy, there is almost no basis for natural divisions in Argentina. Unlike later Yugoslavia and the Soviet Union, which were composed of a number of autonomous republics, natural divisions can easily disintegrate. This can be considered an advantage of Argentina.

In the 1920s, during the Argentine National Unification War, they fought from the capital one by one, forcing each autonomous republic to lose its independence and change it into a province. It was divided and disintegrated, and the powerful divisions were very similar to the administrative divisions of New China, like Provinces that were relatively powerful in the past, such as Cordoba, or those with independent tendencies were separated, such as San Juan, Tucumán, and Jujuy.

Many provinces in northern Argentina have been separated, and their strength has been greatly reduced. They have no strength to confront the Argentine Presidential Palace. Argentina firmly controls the most powerful province of Buenos Aires and the capital, and others like Cole Even those with some strength like Dova and Santa Fe can't do it.

Of course, this approach also has a relatively big drawback, that is, each province is weak and has a small population, so it is difficult to develop its economy. This is something that cannot be helped. In addition, Argentina itself has a sparse population, which is why many provinces in Argentina are economically backward. s reason.

This time, a total of 16 young people were transferred from the Putrajaya Propaganda Department of the Radical Party. In addition to Powell, who had not yet graduated, there were also two former colleagues who were determined not to be too far away from home and were assigned to work at the New Ah Newspaper.

Others, such as Tom Carlos, Don Miguel, and Ludawn Ant, after talking with each other, all agreed to go to the Puerto Blanca City Branch for development.

The Radical Party branch in Puerto Blanca is currently developing and operating well. The second-in-command Clayderman has been completely convinced by St. Jose. The two have joined forces to make the branch a success.

The staff also more than doubled from 17 when they took over from St. Jose. There are now 47 people. Adding in the 13 people brought from Putrajaya this time, there are 60 people, who can fully use their skills. Well, as far as generating income for the Radical Party is concerned, these people can be used to run some cultural industries, develop and establish newspapers and periodicals, influence the southern provinces, and at the same time develop more economic interests, which is very important for expanding the weight of the Radical Party. .

The development of Port Blanca needs to be accelerated. It is really difficult for a councilor to directly control the development of the economy, so Saint Jose has been careful. Even though he has proposed a complete urban development plan, he lacks the urban development plan. Funding for start-up development.

"This time when we go to Puerto Blanca, I have arranged specific work for you. Our Radical Party must retake this place. This is our goal."

"The boss is still powerful, and we will fully cooperate."

Tom originally had somewhat messy black hair. He was the team leader except Powell. When he came to Puerto Blanca, he changed his hairstyle and cut his hair short to look very capable.

Tom is tall and well-proportioned, with slightly dark brown hair that is naturally curly. He wears glasses and is also a handsome guy.

"Port Blanca is a place with great potential, but there will be a lot of troubles in the development process. Everyone should pay more attention to it."

Saint Jose finally said.

After a bumpy journey, as the train arrived at the station and stopped slowly, Saint-Jesse and his team slowly walked out of the train carriage and looked at his watch. It happened to be 5 p.m.

The sky was clear, with blue sky and white clouds, and a gentle breeze. As soon as he got off the train, he saw the welcoming team from a distance.

The people who officially welcomed Saint Jose included Mayor Otto, Clayderman from the Radical Party, two young men sent by friendly families, people from the Republicans, other celebrities, city hall officials and their wives. , which surprised Saint Jose. After all, he only reported to the Falcon Bureau and the City Hall when he returned to Port Blanca this time.

By the way, Durant, the president of Southern University, also came over somehow, luckily he didn't bring his daughter with him.

"Mr. Mayor, I didn't even expect that you would arrange for someone to pick me up here."

To be honest, St. Hesse was really surprised. After all, it was his first time to be greeted. He didn't want to be too high-profile. He even saw some reporters arranged around him taking photos, which were prepared for him. Headlines.

Fortunately, the image of San Jose today is not bad and it is very photogenic. Most of these newspapers are newspapers that have been in the local area for a long time. People from Xin'a Newspaper are also here, but they are just waiting at the back.

"Cohen, we are organizing the welcome meeting this time so that we can handle the port construction and free port matters this time. Most of the documents can be completed at present. The Presidential Palace has also allowed us to conduct a pilot here, but we can't go directly. Europe is looking for those people to invest. The current economic situation is still very difficult, and everyone is thinking of you. After all, you were the one who proposed it in the first place."

Otto showed no embarrassment at all. He shook hands with St. Jose enthusiastically and gave him a huge hug. He was like a brother. Everything seemed to be as he said. In fact, except for the initial meeting in the Lingang Industrial Zone, things provide convenience,

Later, Otto didn't even talk to him about the free port or anything like that. Otto ditched St. Hesse and went directly to do it himself.

St. Jose is too lazy to go to the city hall to talk warmly. After all, although the Lingang Industrial Zone is not big, it can actually carry out factory construction. The free port is much better in all aspects.

“I think City Hall will definitely solve this problem.”

Saint-Jesse did not easily agree to Otto's words. There is a problem with spreading the pie, and the rice needs to be eaten one bite at a time.

"Let's not talk about this for now. I have arranged a welcome party for you here."

Otto didn't pay attention to what Saint Jose said and turned directly to another topic.

St. Jose kissed the ladies' hands in turn and shook hands with these administrative officials. He was very good at those complicated etiquettes. Before the marriage, Elena had given him a special training.

The city hall dispatched more than a dozen vehicles. San Jose told Buster next to him and asked them to settle Tom and the others. San Jose has purchased a lot of real estate in Puerto Blanca through some channels, which can be used for these people. accommodation, other arrangements will be made separately.

The convoy moved forward slowly, with police motorcycles clearing the way in front of them. It made a long circle and passed almost all the prosperous areas of Puerto Blanca before arriving at the gathering place dedicated to the city hall.

San Jose and Mayor Otto were riding in the same car. This was a black car of a British brand that seemed to be quite old.

An imperceptible smile appeared on Otto's lips, he turned his head and said to Saint Jose:

"You and I both know very well, Councilor Cohen, and let's not say too many useless words. This time the Freeport port and city construction really require your help. That is impossible. The city hall is allowed to interfere with Port Blanca. Affairs, I hope you can continue to do this, at least it is not a bad thing for our city to develop."

"Of course I know, but I haven't figured out the specific arrangements yet."

Saint Jose said with a smile. To be honest, he was not so stupid before he agreed directly and made a haha.

He has seen this kind of flattering scene eighty times out of a hundred times. He will not foolishly go to work for others for free unless he is given a suitable price.

A group of people walked toward the banquet hall, most of whom were from the City Hall faction and had some connection with Saint Jose.

“This banquet is a welcome banquet for our Senator of San Jose Con. He went to the capital on behalf of our Port of Blanca and won many big projects. He won a great victory in the decisive battle for the construction of Port of Blanca and achieved many achievements. Good foundation.”

Mayor Otto spoke first, gave a long speech, directly gave a high hat to Saint Jose, and then said a toast,

"Cheers to the future development of Puerto Blanca! Cheers to the Senator of San Jose!"

Then it was Saint Jose's turn to speak, and he gave a final toast:

"To the health of our old Pope!"

St. Jose said against his will. At this time, the old Pope in Rome was quite old, and the church in Argentina was at great risk of falling. I heard that he was angered and sent to a Roman hospital, where he is currently receiving treatment.

The Argentine church was hit hard, and it completely broke with Bilon. At first, it was nothing, and the family had a big business. However, a lot of negative news about the church came out of nowhere, and the church was very passive, and even felt powerless. .

The guests present cheered together.

Then, there were some banquet performances, a piano solo by a beautiful woman.

Saint Jose held up his wine glass and walked around the hall, greeting everyone in turn. With his good memory, he could identify everyone he met, and the Falcon Bureau often collected information about these people. Almost everyone in the hall chatted for a while, and the etiquette was impeccable.

His voice is sonorous and powerful, he is calm and solemn, and he is very approachable. He is very popular and these people are all potential partners for cooperation.

Years of living abroad have not actually changed his accent. It is still a pure Iberian accent, which seems to be engraved in his mind.

This was a bit different from the Buenos Aires dialect in Argentina, and it was also different from the British accent in Puerto Blanca. He even noticed it in Cordoba.

The Spanish of most Argentinians has been completely localized. Whether they are of Hispanic or Italian descent, they all speak Spanish, and it will vary from place to place. The Spaniards have some feelings about Buenos Aires, the former unfilial son. He scoffed. According to Andrew's negotiations in Madrid, he found that the former suzerains had a trace of envy and contempt for the current Argentines.

However, this does not affect the current cooperation between the two countries. The Spanish national shipyard is also very willing to cooperate with Argentina's Sanhais Shipbuilding and Prali International, and the negotiations were very successful.

The accent in Port Blanca is somewhat influenced by the British. After all, this is the port that exports the most beef in Argentina. All four major families have good relations with British meat and wool importers.

Faced with the strange pronunciation of the people of Puerto Blanca, he sometimes felt that his accent was a bit stiff, but he rarely changed his pronunciation.

St. Jose and Principal Durant were more engaged in conversation. The two were chatting in the corner, and people kept coming over to toast. He was the absolute protagonist in this banquet.

For a whole day, Saint Jose did not eat except for breakfast with Elena in the morning. This party was obviously expensive. There was a lot of exquisite food. He hurriedly went to fill his stomach. He had just drank three glasses. The champagne made him feel a little tipsy.

Saint Jose was handsome, with a slender figure and a former military officer. He exuded a military temperament and was actually very popular with girls.

He puffed up his chest unconsciously, and many ladies and young girls came over to invite him to dance. He declined most of the women who had dance partners to prevent some jealousy from happening, but for some obvious things As a single girl, he doesn't mind dancing to relax.

Madeleine Gray is a lady from the Gray family. She wears a light-colored dress. Her clothes and headdress are quite elegant. She has light lipstick on her lips. She did not bring a dance partner this time. The two danced. After He combed his hair with his fingers and enthusiastically invited him to his home for dinner. Saint Jose declined with a smile.

The dinner lasted until after 11 o'clock in the evening. After St. Jose finished dealing with the party, he returned home tiredly. It was after 12 o'clock in the evening.

As the car stopped,

The cook Anna and the butler Luke came out to welcome them, and they said in unison,

"Welcome back, sir."

"You guys go and have a rest, don't worry about me."

"Okay, sir."

Saint Jose was not very good at drinking. He drank a lot of low-alcohol champagne tonight. Taking a hot bath would aggravate his drunkenness, so he simply lay down.
