Rebirth of the Spanish Empire

Chapter 491: The exciting problem

"The next one is, that's the one"

Alfonso chose a reporter who was pushed aside this time. This reporter seemed a bit taciturn, but it was obvious that he was not enthusiastic about interviews. However, in some aspects, he was not very different from others. He seemed to be a bit cunning, and Alfonso suddenly became interested in such a special person.

He pointed at him, and the others followed where he pointed, and were a little surprised, because this time, everyone was very confused. Don't political leaders all like very well-known newspapers to promote themselves? Okay, but the person on stage in front of me seems to have really broken the tradition and actually chosen a niche newspaper, or in other words, a newspaper from a small country, because this country still has very few people. A sort of.

That person had obviously come over with some Sanskrit sounds.

He stood up nervously, and then pretended to be calm, but the first word made people a little stunned, and the somewhat aggrieved Spanish made people look at the other person with some understanding.

I saw him being cautious and said word by word: "Hello, His Majesty the Great King, I am a reporter from the "Allah" newspaper in the Kingdom of Rashid in the Arabian Peninsula. I am honored to be recognized by you. Don't waste it. It's your time. I would like to ask Your Majesty that among all the allies of Spain, the economy of the Kingdom of Rashid is currently the most lagging behind.

Of course, we also understand that on some issues, especially geographical location, in some places, the Rashid Kingdom with only 1.2 million citizens has a very bad advantage. So I would like to ask Your Majesty, which can be regarded as asking His Majesty on behalf of many citizens, when will Spain, with the permission of its policies, help us change the current situation in which we are the most backward economically among all Spain's allies, because , we yearn for their kind of life, thank you. "

Alfonso was a little surprised by the other party's frankness. It looks like he is still wearing the white national hat on his head. And with that long beard, he looks so different here, compared to sitting aside. He stretched out his waist and looked at this reporter with disdain, a man in the same clothes. Alfonso felt a little bright.

at the same time. He also thanked the other party for reminding him, yes, Rashid Kingdom. This family-style country established with its own support, like the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia established by the Saudi family in the south, is one of several independent countries on the Arabian Peninsula. Yemen is controlled by the British and now belongs to the ranks of the protectorate. Over there, the Arab Emirate of Oman, Bahrain, Kuwait, etc. are all situations where the UK is really having the final say.

However, surrounded by these countries, there are two countries, namely the Kingdom of Rashid and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia mentioned above. Both of these are family-style countries. After years of evolution, Saudi Arabia began to develop in the UK. With the support of King Saudi Arabia, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia has successfully gained a foothold and has even begun to fight back. However, because of the support of the Kingdom of Rashid from Spain, the two countries later fought evenly, and it was others who suffered in the end. , among which, the Han Dynasty Kingdom was the most important. In this country, they played their best on many issues and the shortcomings of family rule. In the end, they lost the country, and the two successful family kingdoms gained a lot from this.

Now, the two countries have been completely divided. Except for Jerusalem, the three holy cities in the Arabian Peninsula, which are still under the rule of the Ottoman Empire, Mecca and Medina are already under the jurisdiction of the Saudi family in the south. Medina in the middle is managed by the Rashid family. It can be said that the current Three Kingdoms are really divided into three holy cities, which have completely represented the three independent forces of the Islamic world. To the south and east of Dara, Mecca, Taif, Turaibah, Raudai, Hammar, Leila, and Ghalib (a straight line north of Ghalib, and to the northeast is the Hasa region of Spain.)

The Hasa region of Spain is Galiber, Harad, Shumlul (also known as Maghera), and Hafer al-Batin. To the east of these places are Spanish overseas territories.

The reason why Alfonso thinks so much is because the oil here makes Alfonso laugh every time he thinks about it. However, due to the blockade, no one knows this until the 21st century. The site of the world's largest discovered oil field is still in Spanish hands.

The Kingdom of Rashid is about to develop, but this seems to really confuse everyone. Many people are thinking about this problem in their shoes. Yes, if they are in the position of Alfonso XIII now, How should I solve this idea that represents the aspiration of a country?

Even this question was automatically put on his desk by George V without being asked, and he was thinking about it, because Britain is also facing the same words, Bahrain, Kuwait, the Arab Emirates, Yemen, Oman and other elder countries, kings and countries. , the colonial protectorates of these countries are also increasingly dissatisfied with the British coercive rule. If it is not stopped, he cannot predict what the final result will be. After all, such a thing will definitely make everyone A big country is trembling with fear. After all, countries headed by the United Kingdom now have more or less colonies in the world. These colonies are all faced with such topics. It is precisely because of this that when facing colonies with the same geographical location, Both the UK and Spain are facing the same problem.

Therefore, while George V was thinking about it, he also wanted to see if this king, who was much younger than himself, would really have any way to solve this problem.

Similarly, the Ottoman Empire in the north also has such a topic, but obviously, after many years of development, the Ottoman Empire has become an emerging power, and some of them disdain this topic. After all, the Ottoman Empire The empire has actually been studied for many years, but now it still mainly relies on the port economy to drive the economy, and also does some raw material production and processing for Spain.

Therefore, they have now begun to attract attention in the world. After all, the Ottoman Empire has a larger economy than Peru and other countries, and is closer to Europe, where the world's major powers are located. The Ottoman Empire also occupies all the ports here. Due to the geographical advantages, these made the Ottoman Empire start to feel a little elated. They have always treated the small Kingdom of Rashid and the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, both of which are Arab countries, as if they were little guys, with pure disregard.”

This is also the reason for the look in the eyes of the Ottoman reporter in the same dress.

Although Mohammed V dismissed it, he still wanted to hear about this issue. How hard the other party is. The same is true for Tsarist Russia and France. To a certain extent, it is also related to things related to their own economic development. After all, these years, Under the leadership of Alfonso XIII, the Spanish economy has attracted much attention, which is well known to everyone in the world. You can know it from the development results of those allies. Therefore, this time they still have a little bit of hope for him. of expectation.

Everyone in the Rashid family was even more nervous. Even the Saudi family next to them were hopeful and pricked up their ears.

"Haha." Actually, no matter how you look at it, this topic seems to be posing a difficult problem for me. Today, it seems that my Good Friday has come early." Alfonso's somewhat self-deprecating expression still made people laugh.

"We cannot arbitrarily draw conclusions on how to do something. After all, this needs to be based on the reasonable nature of something.

Just when everyone thought that Alfonso's embarrassed expression was embarrassing, and many people even thought that this was Alfonso showing weakness and taking pleasure in others' misfortune, Alfonso suddenly turned around and said:

"However, Spain has a special relationship with this ally, especially the cabinet members of our government. They have already drawn up a plan. In fact, this reporter is lucky. We originally planned to join us in a few months. I will propose such a plan to your country, but now that the plan is almost complete, I can share it with you in advance."

Is there really one? This is so accurate that many people doubt whether this reporter from "Allah" is the so-called gunman who cooperated with the news in the legend.

"I don't believe it. In fact, I also added some elements to make it sound like this. Yes, my plan is that we will negotiate economic cooperation with our allies. For example, Spain will hire Latina Many people from the Kingdom of Sid are working in Spain, mainly developing docks, etc. We are preparing to carry out a series of investment plans in the Red Sea.

For example, Spain will build a dock in Dammam, which may require thousands of workers, and these workers will be paid one-tenth of the Spanish local minimum wage system and hired in the region. The nearby allied countries recognize that the worker works at this terminal. In other words, if the worker becomes a worker at this terminal, then you will become a very few people with high wages. After all, even in countries such as Peru, workers’ wages are We cannot reach this point, and these countries have been developing for many years. "

This kind of analysis makes many people feel excited. Even Mohammed V of the Ottoman Empire in the north is very excited. After all, the current Ottoman Empire is only compared with Peru, and Peru is the last among these countries. , Therefore, if the Ottoman Empire had a large number of workers working for Spain, then even if it was only 100,000, that would be a huge number. He did the math, and the amount turned out to be... (To be continued...)
