Chapter 204 Agreement
Chapter 204 Agreement
If you take a tour of this country now, everyone can feel the different beauty. And this country has only developed for a few years so far?
Changnuo has only been king for five years. Now, at the age of 19, it can be said that he has been worshiped as a god by the entire country, an omnipotent god.
The country's organizational structure is all changing. Although there is no guarantee that any official will not commit corruption, so far, the country has developed to this time and everyone has done a good job.
However, Alabasta, which is also a commercial place, does not have this situation. Losstar maintains the operation of the commercial economy here, but it does not start to vigorously develop real estate enterprises like its own country. The most important thing is that it is simply impossible to stay here. There is no need. Once the economy here is fully circulated, it will do more harm than good to them.
Similarly, the Kingdom of Tru is now driving rapid economic growth in Alabasta, and has developed their entire country by nearly half, but for the people of this country, many things are not as they expected.
When a person doesn't have enough to eat, his or her thoughts are very simple, what should he eat for the next meal? But when a person is able to eat a full meal, they start to think about many things. .
Alabasta is a cooperative economy of the Kingdom of Tru. So far, the number of processing plants here has grown to more than 130. Although the tax exemption for five years can allow these businesses to develop rapidly, but They also paid these costs for building infrastructure projects.
But it still can't stop some domestic ministers from gossiping. After all, in their opinion, the Tru Kingdom has made too much money in their country, but the people in their own country can only maintain food and clothing.
With the development of mentality, many people have begun to join in the protest against the commercial entities of the Toru Kingdom. The majority of people's wish is to let the country of Alabasta directly take over all industrial facilities, thereby directly transferring the Toru Kingdom to Get out there and develop these things yourself.

As the king, Kobra is exhausted every day. How can he not covet the commercial facilities in Alabasta now? However, there is an agreement between them, exempting any taxes within five years, and the Kingdom of Tru will assist his country in building infrastructure. facilities, and donated the Rapeseed Port as a condition, but it has only been two years, and many people across the country have begun to raise a wave of opposition.
In the main hall of Alabasta Palace.
There is already a group of people staying here. Almost every minister here was a minister who had participated in the negotiations with the Tru Kingdom. All the agreements with you were passed with one vote, and these people were also involved.
However, two years later, these people stood in the palace hall again, all of them with frowns on their faces, including Kobra who was sitting on top.
"Your Majesty the King, when we exempted the industries of the Kingdom of Tru from taxes for five years, it seemed like a major misstep for our country. Should we think of any way to stop this now?"
A middle-aged man with a fat head, big ears and a round belly stood below and said.
He has probably said this kind of thing more than once. However, facing the Tru Kingdom's factories here, they receive billions of beli's in revenue every day. For their entire country's annual income, it is only less than For a country worth 100 billion beli, this kind of jealous behavior is really irritating everyone's heart.
Kobra sat on it, also frowning. How could he not know these situations?
Now the entire Rapeseed Port has been expanded by the Kingdom of Tru to be more than ten times larger than before, and there is an endless stream of ships docking at the port from various countries on the Grand Route every day, even those guys from the New World. Come often.
"We have made an agreement with the Kingdom of Tru. If we unilaterally break the agreement now, the impact on us will be too great. It will only be five years of tax. After all, their country is helping us build the entire country's infrastructure. Alabasta can’t do this kind of thing like crossing a river bridge!”
Kobra took a deep breath and said calmly.
"Your Majesty the King, we have not said that we will burn down the bridge across the river. Otherwise, we might as well take back the Rapeseed Port. This will at least greatly increase part of our country's income!"
Another middle-aged man with a beard and a white robe said respectfully.
"That's right, Your Majesty the King, we should not have given up the port to them in the first place. If we relied on that port for development, our country would be able to earn at least tens of billions of beli every year."
The middle-aged man with a round belly said again.
"Let's leave this matter as it is for now. Then Minister Zuo will try to see if he can communicate with Luosta!"
Kobra said.
"Your Majesty, I have already communicated with Minister Luosta about this matter before. The other party just said that things should be done in accordance with the agreement and there is no room for negotiation!"
Minister Zuo also stood up in embarrassment at this moment, and said with an embarrassed look on his face.
Whatever His Majesty the King is thinking about now, he has already tried it before. Although the country's economy has improved now, and most things no longer require money from their palace, for this country, it has already been disguised. Ruled by the Kingdom of Toru.
A country can use business to develop its economy to such an extent, and so far it has controlled less than half of the country's people. After all, if these people leave their factory now, they don't know how many people will starve to death.
Not to mention ministers like them, even Kobra is clearly aware of this matter. The country that was already in poverty before has finally recovered some blood. If it falls out with the Kingdom of Tru, it will suffer the most in the end. I'm afraid it's still them.
Kobra looked embarrassed, facing so many ministers' advice, but he really had no choice. Regardless of emotional or rational aspects, the Kingdom of Tru was fully prepared in advance, and everything was on a single agreement, and It is stamped with the national seals of two countries. If this kind of thing causes a war between the two countries, it is estimated that even the World Government will not be able to participate.
