The French government's energy can be much greater than that of several capitalists. After being authorized by the Paris government, Minister Tom's confidence was enough.

In less than a month, the Colombian government obtained the right to develop the Panama Canal at a price of only a batch of material assistance.

The main reason is still arms. The internal armed forces in Colombia have not fought, and the main reason is that they have been forced by external pressure.

Everyone is afraid of the outbreak of the civil war and will have the opportunity to be reduced to a colony again.

Especially in Austria, the neighbor next door, Guangao belongs to the Central American colony, and already has a military force that threatens their survival.

Because of the lessons learned from the countries of Central America, the Colombian government now dare not accept European immigrants casually, fearing that it would be the peak of the regime from within.

Colombia has a small population and dare not accept European immigrants in large numbers. Naturally, economic development is not fast.

Now that the Panama Canal is authorized to the French, in addition to material assistance, it also means the introduction of French power to check and balance Austria.

These are minor issues, neither France nor Austria regards Colombia as one thing.If you want to play balance, you also need to see if you can control it.

If the Panama Canal is already open, for the sake of benefit, the conflict between France and Austria may indeed erupt. Unfortunately, the canal only stays on paper.

It is impossible for two big powers to break out of conflict for possible interests.To put it bluntly, it is also necessary to dig a canal. If the geological conditions are not suitable, it is not surprising that the digging is impossible.

Everyone is very realistic, and can think about things more than a decade or two later, that is a far-sighted vision.

If you think about things a hundred years later, it is nonsense.The world is changing so fast, who knows what will happen in the future?

The prices given by the French were good, and the Vienna government did not intervene.

The establishment of the Canal Company was very smooth. Nino, the CEO of Backboiler, was actively organizing personnel to explore the terrain.

The headquarters of the Paris Canal Company has already begun preparations for listing financing.There are no exploration reports, and the design plan is not released, the listing plan comes out first.

This is not a joke, but reality.In the face of interests, these procedures are not important, and the capitalists have some ways to circumvent them.

There are still many such scams in the capital market. As long as you can make money, the success or failure of the project does not matter.

Nino still has some abilities, otherwise he can't become a loser.Looking at the investigation report in his hand, President Nino had a headache.

The Panama Strait has a tropical marine climate, with abundant rain and loose soil.

Simply from the construction point of view, the loose soil seems to be a good thing, and it is easy to excavate the earth.But for the canal project, it was a disaster.

In the opinion of President Nino: "adequate rain + loose soil = landslide + silt", this not only means that the cost of canal development will increase, even the later operating costs will increase.

In addition, there are many poisonous insects in the local jungle, and diseases often occur, which is also a trouble in the construction of the canal.

The "dead man" President Nino doesn't care. There is a classic case of the Suez Canal. He knows very well that if there are no tens of thousands of lives in the Panama Canal, it might be impossible to dig it out.

The Panama Strait seems to be narrower. As long as it is only 61 kilometers, it is only a little more than one-third of the Suez Canal, and the construction difficulty is actually higher.

After a preliminary evaluation of the incomplete data in his hand, Nino reluctantly reached this conclusion that he least wanted.

Secretary Ralph Shen Shenghui reported: "President, the Embassy has just heard that the Colombian government has refused to provide us with labor on the pretext of insufficient labor."

Everyone knows that there were heavy casualties in digging the canal. In order to dig the Suez Canal, the death of more than 100,000 workers is not a secret at the top.

Naturally, the Colombian government also heard about it. The Egyptian government jumped this huge pit and caused the domestic people to lose their lives, so that the French took advantage of it and occupied Egypt.

Colombia has a smaller population, and it is simply impossible to provide them with hundreds of thousands of workers.

It is enough to call for indigenous workers. If you dare to use white people as workers, it is estimated that the workers have not enough, and the country will start to smoke.

Nino frowned: "Contact the embassy and let them continue to communicate with the Colombian government. In any case, they must first be provided with a batch of labor emergency.

The board of directors is looking for ways to find cheap labor, as long as they have passed the beginning of the project, they will not be needed later."

No way, this year there are too many pits, and investors are not easy to cheat.You have to start work early to get money easily.

How can a paper project be compared to a project that has already been implemented?The canal company's IPO plan blew the cow up, and the board of directors urged him to start work every day.

Secretary Ralph: "Yes, President."

Just about to leave, Nino added: "Wait, report the materials we have surveyed to the board of directors.

Remember to hide the possible disease outbreak.Even if there is a local outbreak of disease, shareholders will not want to read such remarks."

Without doing a cost analysis, Nino also knew that the canal plan had exceeded the original cost estimate, and it was a fool's dream to want to use a third of the Suez Canal to build a canal.

Finally, he became the person in charge of this project. Nino didn't like to see the canal plan die out.If he missed this opportunity, perhaps he had no chance to go further in his life.

The best way is to let the Canal Project start first. When the time comes, more capital will be invested, and the capitalists will not be willing to give up.

As for the gangster behind the scenes, Nino is not worried at all.Panama Canal is going to be listed for financing, and these costs can be passed on to investors.

It is normal for a loophole to appear in the work, as long as there is no generous reward for everyone, everything is not a problem.

Nino is confident of the Panama Canal project. As long as the canal is open to traffic, he is confident that he will recover the cost within ten years.

This is only the gains from the surface, and the gains in the dark should be several times the fare.Such a generous return is enough to quell shareholders' resentment.

...

In London, Prime Minister Benjamin was worried about the battle report. He had already thought about what would be written in the newspaper tomorrow.

The opposition parties will definitely take advantage of the opportunity to engage in affairs and crack down on the prestige of the government.

Everyone is doing this, working hard on the stage, implementing their own political ideas, and taking advantage of the situation; when they are off the stage, they desperately demolish their competitors.

At the cabinet meeting, Prime Minister Benjamin threw the telegram on the table: "This is Ismail's waste-seeking telegram. The war has just begun, we have lost one-fifth of the troops, including an army corps. Was disabled by the establishment.

As for the results, it was really brilliant, annihilating the enemy's 200,000.

I prefer to believe that the sun will come out from the west, and I don't believe that this victory is true.All annihilated twenty enemy troops, and asked for distant troops. Does the enemy have millions of troops?"

Misrepresenting the Warring States, this has become a persistent illness of the British Army.Especially when defeated, in order to escape responsibility, it is necessary to create a brilliant Warring States.

It's just that this time it's too much. If you make a report for 8,000, the London government will recognize it.After all, the cover is lifted and the government will be scolded.

In line with the principle that big things become small and small things happen, this kind of thing usually happens, and everyone is quietly covering up the past.

Secretary of the Army Fox said with embarrassment: "Your Excellency, this may be a mistake for the reporter, and he has hit an extra zero.

We have already sent people to verify that our army has 5,876 casualties, of which three-quarters are Indian colonial forces, annihilating a total of 15,796 enemy forces, and rounding off is 20,000."

This data is much more acceptable to people.More than 5,000 people were killed and wounded, and nearly three times the enemy was annihilated.
