"Uncle Friedrich, what do you want?"

"how could I know!"

"I must have someone to take care of me?" said Franz.

"You're a big man..." Friedrich realized something was wrong in the middle of saying that Franz was still between a child and a teenager in a strict sense.

"Uncle Friedrich, although I am about the same height as you, I am indeed a child." Franz said jokingly.

In fact, it is helpless to bring Dayan Shanyin. Thalia's school is very busy with work, mainly because of ideological trends. In addition, Franz needs someone to take charge of the overall situation when he leaves Vienna. Although Mrs. Sophie can control the situation, the details of the work are still unclear. Adjani's help is needed.

And when it comes to the ability to take care of people, the women around Franz may not be as good as Oshio Sugin, after all, Japan's cultural heritage is there. In addition, in order to ensure her loyalty, she must show off her muscles from time to time.

The Japanese Muqiang mentality is serious, and the Japanese women are even more serious, especially the Japanese women who are alone overseas.

"What kind of child are you! Worse than an old man!" Friedrich was obviously very upset.

Ten-year-old Franz is already close to 150 cm tall, while 19-year-old Friedrich is only 158 cm tall.

"Uncle Friedrich, you are wrong to say that. You and your soldiers are the ones who did the wrong thing. I'm just giving you a reasonable suggestion."

"You bastard! Are you here to discuss trade with a few African indigenous tribes for such a big show?"

"Yes. The Spanish and Portuguese trading posts in Côte d'Ivoire have been bought by me, and now only the French trading posts are left. Originally, there were less than 50 people, but now it has suddenly increased to 200 people. There is no doubt that the other party is also fancy. this land."

What Franz was most worried about happened. The French began to infiltrate Côte d'Ivoire earlier than in history.

The reduction in cotton production in Egypt has directly affected the textile industry in France. The cotton fields in Algeria are constantly being harassed by rebels. The cotton and cattle industries in Texas are booming. However, in order to ensure the loyalty of the locals, France not only did not lower the purchase price, Local subsidies are also given.

This behavior of the French government naturally won the support of the locals, and the Frenchization of Texas went very smoothly. Local farmers and high-class gentlemen sent their children to study in France one after another, and some even bought French titles at high prices.

Franz didn't expect that the French immigrants in Texas could be so successful. Did the American people love freedom? Ready to Frenchize all staff without even an uprising?

Of course, the Frenchization of Texas directly hurt the sensitive nerves of the Americans, after all, they still have a large number of former French colonies in their hands.

Moreover, the Americans "sacrificed" so much for Texas before, but now it is cheaper for the French. All previous efforts have become sunk costs, and what is even more frightening is that they may be backlashed.

Mexico next door is also surprised and full of surprises. What's surprising is that the development of Texas is so fast, and it's all because the ambitions of the French have not been satisfied.

Although the French colony of Texas in North America was double-teamed by the United States and Mexico, the French who tasted the sweetness started their expansion journey earlier than in history.

Not only Côte d'Ivoire, the French also extended their minions to Morocco, Mauritania, Guinea, Senegal, Benin, and even competed with Britain for Nigeria.

The purpose of the French is to incorporate all of Northwest Africa into the territory of France. At the same time, the French also saw that Austria used religion to colonize Chenla, and they aimed at a more powerful Vietnam.

However, the so-called powerful is only for Southeast Asian countries.

Friedrich didn't think the French were a problem. On the contrary, he felt that although Austria was far inferior to France in terms of total fleet, due to the existence of the Strait of Gibraltar that cut the French fleet into two sections, there was still hope for the two countries to go to war. .

"Only two hundred Frenchmen, you brought more than 1,000 cavalry this time, and I have 1,500 marines and 200 special forces here. Why, we didn't know it..."

Franz covered his face. Sure enough, special operations are too early for this era, and Friedrich has been completely poisoned.

"It is impossible for us to go to war directly with the French. That would be too costly, and in the end it will only benefit the British."

"Then ignore the French? They will definitely compete with us for Côte d'Ivoire."

"Now the French are attacking from all directions, and their power is extremely scattered. We just need to buy off the natives and let them deal with the French. Once the French colonial government finds that the maintenance costs are far greater than their benefits, they will give up fighting with us."

"Why would those natives listen to you? I heard that they took our products without giving us money, and took people from our country away. The men ate them, and the women..."

Friedrich apparently believed the rumour, but at this point Franz did not want to correct the truth.

"What are the people we brought here for?" Franz asked back.

"Isn't there still going to be a war?"

"I said we were here to discuss business, but I didn't say not to use force."

"But only dealing with those natives of Côte d'Ivoire, isn't it a bit of a fuss?"

"We are going to Guinea, Côte d'Ivoire, Togo, Cameroon, and Congo~www.wuxiaspot.com~ These five places we still have a chance to compete with Britain and France."

"So many? How can we have so many people?" Friedrich couldn't help worrying again.

"We are here to trade, not to fight, and colonization is a long process. The whole process may take ten or even twenty years to complete the first step."

"So long? And we want to colonize these areas, how can there be so many pioneers? You can't catch all the homeless people in Austria."

Adjani made some mistakes when hiring homeless people to develop the colony before. In order to recruit more homeless people, the people below lied that the Austrian Empire had land in the New World to be developed, so the people who signed up were very enthusiastic.

However, when boarding the ship in Venice, those people knew that they were going to Africa, and some people took advantage of the chaos and fled. The riots even drew gendarmes, although in the end the homeless were all caught and put on a ship bound for Africa.

But the whole incident caused quite a stir. In fact, the Austrian Empire was already very polite to tramps, and other countries directly captured them and shipped them directly like slaves and livestock.

"There will be people, but the core has to be Austrian."

In fact, there were quite a few Germans who immigrated to North America in this era. If these can be intercepted, the problem of the shortage of the main ethnic group in Austria can be solved to a large extent.

In the future, Ireland, Sweden, and Japan will be the main force of foreign immigration. About 3 million Irish, 1.3 million Swedish, and 1.1 million Japanese will immigrate.

If some of them can be sent to Africa, the problem of insufficient manpower in the colony will naturally be solved.
