Reborn as a small European country

Chapter 291 Louis' Thoughts

Japanese royal palace
"We are very passive in this matter."

"What do you want me to do?"

Joseph didn't have time to pay attention to the emperor's nonsense. He only hoped that he could help, not for the emperor but for himself and the interests of the Nord Kingdom in Japan.

It is obvious why the American businessmen did it. If the government returns to allow pro-American forces to gain the upper hand, then the business investment of the Nord Kingdom will be unlucky, which is something Joseph cannot tolerate.Although very reluctant, it is undeniable that now the Kingdom of Nord and the United States have no way out for each other because of Japan's affairs.

"This is the list, the list of the Japanese CIA and some people who are friendly to the United States, and some of them are business leaders."

Looking at the list handed over by the Emperor of Japan, Joseph seemed to understand something in his heart, nodded, took the list, turned and left without hesitation.

"What if he negotiates with the Americans?"

"There is no way, now we can only bet that the United States will not agree to his plan, because the Nord Kingdom's appetite is far greater than that of the United States, and American businessmen...should not compromise."

……

Joseph did not find the person in charge of the United States in Japan, but he also did not follow the emperor's wishes. He was sitting on the mountain and watching the tigers fight. Join forces with the Emperor of Japan to deal with him.

Although the possibility of that is very low, after all, the Nord Kingdom only occupies some insignificant interests in Japan, and the real big head Hokkaido has not yet been fully obtained. Even if the two parties unite, the Nord Kingdom will not suffer too much loss, but if Without the Kingdom of Nord, the situation between the power of the United States and the Emperor of Japan will become clearer, which is something the Emperor will not want to see.

Simply put, the Emperor of Japan needs the Nord Kingdom to help him resist the United States, and the United States does not dare to provoke the Nord Kingdom and finally let Japan take all the benefits.The Kingdom of Nord will not sit back and watch the Emperor be completely swallowed by the Japanese pro-American forces, because he also needs the Emperor of Japan to resist the influence of the United States in Japan.

The year 2000 passed under such circumstances. In March 2001, the first 3G phone call was made by Nokia, the Nord Kingdom, and the 3G era officially came.

As the fourth Prime Minister of the Nord Kingdom, Eric personally visited Nokia and highly appreciated Nokia's contribution to the Nord Kingdom and the world. At the same time, Apple released the iPhone 3, and it has been six years since the release of the iPhone 2 time, but the iPhone3 accumulated in the past six years is almost completely different from the iPhone2, which is completely different from the upgrade of iPhone1 and iPhone2.

The mobile network makes the iPhone3 a mobile version of the computer. Many students have given up buying a new Apple computer and chose iPhone3 instead, because the remaining functions can almost perfectly replace the computer except for some large-scale games.

Apple is taking the time to develop client games, especially in cooperation with Microsoft Games. Excellent client games such as World of Warcraft and Jin Yong Heroes are being developed one by one.

Because of technology, the president of Apple was conferred the title of the fifth Lord of the Kingdom of Nord. The first was Prime Minister James, the second was the dead General Fritz Erich von Manstein, The third is Mr. Elias Canetti, Joseph's literature teacher, and the fourth is Mr. Elias Canetti, a language teacher.

The reason why they were able to obtain the title of lord was because they were able to cultivate Joseph as a reward. Although these teachers felt very embarrassed, they finally accepted it.

In fact, the president of Apple is the first Nord citizen to be lord because of technology. Because of a lord, he was successfully elected as a member of the Lords of the Kingdom of Nord. position is comparable.

It didn't take long for the presidents of Nokia and Audi to be knighted one after another, while the high-profile Microsoft and Nord Royal Petroleum did not move.

Inside the Presidential Suite at Hotel Royal Nord:
"Matthew, this time the lord does not have the two of us. It seems that this business meeting is not the usual embarrassment."

"Shame is a small thing. I always have some uneasiness in my heart, thinking that something will happen."

"No matter how much the cabinet changes, it has nothing to do with us. Don't worry, can you still leave Microsoft? You are the veteran of Microsoft and now the president. You have to work hard without credit."

The two who spoke were Matthew, president of Microsoft Corporation, and Lin Guodong of Nord Royal Petroleum Company. Lin Guodong was not too surprised that he did not get the Lord. After all, only he knew the internal situation of Nord Royal Company best. It's just a puppet, even if the lord gives it to him, he will feel hot.

But this incident is indeed a bit embarrassing. Standing on the international trade platform, people introduce Lord Nord and the president of a certain company, and they are only the monotonous president. It is really...

dong dong dong~
There was a knock on the door, because the bodyguards were not allowed to follow Lin Guodong, so he could only open the door by himself. After opening the door, he saw a very familiar face, but Lin Guodong was very strange, what did the cabinet minister ask him to do at this time.

"Lin, don't you welcome me?"

"Welcome, welcome, Your Excellency the Prime Minister."

Inviting Eric to enter the door with doubts, seeing Eric and Matthew was also very surprised, but seeing that Matthew was here, Eric couldn't help but smile: "It's just right for Matthew to be here, I have something to inform you, How to do it depends on your own opinion.”

"Our cabinet intends to appoint Matthew as the deputy minister of the Ministry of Commerce, and Lin Guodong, the former deputy minister of the Ministry of Commerce and the president of Nord Royal Petroleum Company, intends to be appointed as the minister of the Ministry of Health of Nord."

Let an oil group president be the Minister of Health?Who made such a bizarre decision?Matthew was very surprised by this absurd decision, but Lin Guodong was not surprised, because few people knew that he had also been an official of the Ministry of Health for a period of time before he became the president of the oil group.

"It seems that this is also my return to my old job. You should not know, Matthew. I used to be a director of the Ministry of Health."

Pu!Now what Matthew wants to say is, who made the decision to let Lin Guodong, the director of the Ministry of Health, be the president of the oil group?

"If there is no problem, then let's settle this matter like this!"

"Prime Minister Eric, may I ask the former Minister of Health Rupert..."

"He's now a member of Parliament for Western Sahara."

From a ministerial leader to a regional councilor, no one can tell whether it is a promotion or a demotion, but thinking about the current situation in the Nord Kingdom, some things seem to be a little clear.

This time, I am sorry for Marceau, because the position of prime minister itself should belong to him. If there is no accident, Marceau will be elected as prime minister next time. In that case, Rupert, a member of the Western Sahara region, may be the member of the House of Commons. speaker?Even if the speaker is not possible, there is no problem with the deputy speaker.

The retirement age for ministerial bosses stipulated by the Nord Kingdom is 60 years old, and it can be extended to 80 if they serve as the deputy speaker. It is very difficult for the Minister of Health to be promoted to the speaker and deputy speaker of the Nord House of Commons, but in this way... There is great hope.

If possible, Lin Guodong and Matthew would never choose this way, because if they stayed at Microsoft and Nord Royal Petroleum Company, they would be very likely to obtain the title of Lord, but there is no such thing as retirement for life title.

Although very reluctant, there are many things that cannot be refused. Seeing that the two agreed that Eric would leave the hotel and return to the office of the Cabinet Office.

Seeing Eric come back, Clare, the new chief of staff to the prime minister, said jokingly: "Your Excellency, they must be very sad!"

"Missing the chance to get the lord, I think it will be the same."

"Your Excellency Prime Minister, you have no problem..."

"Other prime ministers may have no problem, but I am most likely to be the speaker of the House of Commons instead of a member of the House of Lords. Speaking of which, Mr. James, Speaker, is also 80 years old!"

"Smith will take over as Speaker of the House of Lords next year, if nothing else."

Claire gave the answer and made a plan. Eric felt that he had a good chance of being a Lord in five years, because the House of Lords needed him as the deputy speaker.

……

Western Sahara
"Sister Marceau, why didn't Dad let you be the Prime Minister of Nord?"

Looking at Louis who was following behind, Masolo couldn't help but smiled on his tired face: "Because Crown Prince Charlie needs an absolutely obedient prime minister instead of a capable prime minister like me."

Louis was sent to the Western Sahara region by Flanders a few months ago. This was what Joseph and Gao Jingxuan had agreed upon at the beginning. He could not let his son be a crybaby and a coward.

"If I become king of Nord in the future, I will definitely let Sister Marceau be the prime minister."

"Even if you are not the King of Nord, I will be able to serve as Prime Minister in a few years, but Louis, you should understand that you will not become King of Nord."

Marceau can't let Louis have any dangerous thoughts. Now that Louis is with her, if Louis says something in front of Joseph, wouldn't it be mistaken for him to teach?Marceau couldn't bear such a scapegoat, Joanna also heard this sentence, but she didn't take it seriously.

Charlie has nothing to do now, if something happens to him, then Flender is not willing to take over the kingdom of Nord, how can it be impossible for Louis?
Louis didn't have that many thoughts. He just said casually. The Ragnar family is a family that values ​​family affection and unity. Killing brothers and imprisoning fathers will not happen in the Nord Kingdom.

"Even if I can't be the king of Nord, I must persuade my father to canonize you, sister Joanna, and my mother as Princess Nord."

Louis' gaze was very firm. Marceau wanted to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.
