From Arms Dealer To King of War

  Chapter 1126 Santorini Gathering

   Qiao Liang was strolling on the beach below the mansion in Santorini, besides a few bodyguards, there were also a group of Greek politicians...

  The youngest of them is the current Greek Prime Minister Tsipras!

   Born in 1974, Tsipras, as a representative of the Greek Left Radical Party, has always behaved a bit deviant.

   In 2009, he threatened the European Union to renege on his debts, and then launched a demonstration between 2009 and 2014. He opposed the Greek government's lock-down policy and won him huge support from within Greece. In 2015, this guy successfully became the president.

  But soon this guy was taught a lesson by Germany, France, and the European Union.

  When he took over the mess, Greece’s GDP dropped rapidly to 75% of the level of Greece 20 years ago.

   Facing the predicament, this guy bowed his head helplessly to the European Union.

  In order to bail out, he accepted very harsh bailout conditions from the EU and international creditors.

   Tsipras, who was expected by everyone, went through a series of hard negotiations. In the end, the whole of Greece had to tighten its belt, reduce expenditure and raise taxes in an effort to repay its debts.

  If it weren’t for the 16-year-old mother who pulled them all the way to promote 1D, Greece still has no hope of paying off its debts this year.

   It was the first time for Qiao Liang to come into contact with a national-level business, investing in an island with an area of ​​nearly 9,000 square kilometers.

   At the earliest time, Qiao Liang was a little nervous when facing the active presidents of European developed countries, but after getting in touch with them more, he discovered that these politicians are actually ordinary people.

  This Tsipras has good political ability, but in the two years since he took office, apart from constantly reducing expenditures and getting a good meal in China, he has basically failed to fulfill other promised things.

  Qiao Liang likes Tsipras very much, because he is really interesting and eloquent, and Tsipras, who has been tortured by Greece's sluggish economy for two years, is very active in cooperating with P·B.

  Since Qiao Liang came to Santorini, Tsipras has been coming here almost every other week.

  Looking at Qiao Liang who was in a very good mood, Tsipras said with a smile: "Liang, you look very happy. This is not the mood you should have after your wife leaves..."

  Qiao Liang spread his hands and said with a smile: "If you live in a place where there are more than a dozen princesses wandering around every day, you will understand that this is not a good experience.

  I'm sick of the way those so-called royal housekeepers look at me..."

  Tsipras laughed loudly and said, "Liang, you must know that the things you have experienced are something that many people dream of!

  The money spent by the 16 princesses in Santorini is higher than the income here in the past year.

   You should invite them to stay longer, their wallets can save the island. "

  Qiao Liang shook his head with a smile and said: "Tomorrow the movie 'Saving Princess Emina' will be released, and they need to avoid it, otherwise these rich girls may not be able to come out again after they go back.

  My wife's travel company needs them more! "

  Tsipras looked at Qiao Liang's young side face, he shook his head and sighed, "Liang, you and Tong are the most amazing couple I've ever seen.

  Tong is the happiest person I have seen since 2009. We Greeks should be so happy...

  We have a long civilization, we have beautiful scenery, we should live happily here...

   But the **** financial crisis messed everything up! "

  Qiao Liang looked at Tsipras, who was crying poorly, and said with a smile: "Brother, let me remind you, what you are going through is a debt crisis...

   Borrowing money to enjoy life is not a good habit! "

Tsipras didn't mind Qiao Liang's sarcasm, and he said indifferently: "Our last few debts will be repaid soon, and as long as the development of Crete goes well, we will be able to regain the happy life we ​​once had. .”

  Qiao Liang walked slowly near the pier, looked at the peaceful bay in front of him, and said, "It's not that simple!

   If you can't give 100% effort, you can't impress my brother!

  My brother has already found out about your misappropriation of Crete’s development bond funds to repay debts. What’s more serious is that other than the local chickens, there are other people eyeing you.

  Next month will be the day when the first batch of bonds will be paid. What are you going to do?

  Do you think new creditors will speak better than those old creditors?

  P·B Bank relied on its own reputation to lower the interest rate of Crete bonds to 3.5%.

  Now you're paying off debts that should have been spent on infrastructure in Crete.

   If Greece cannot give my brother a satisfactory answer, the so-called happiness you just mentioned will no longer exist! "

   While talking, Qiao Liang looked at Tsipras, who was extremely embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Don't be nervous, things haven't reached the worst level yet.

  My brother will not take away your valuable things like those financial institutions, because he is used to win-win cooperation, and he likes to make profits through construction...

   But man, the credibility you guys are showing sucks!

  I don't ask you what you thought at the time, what you need to consider now is how to make up for the huge loss that P·B is about to face...

   Oh, not only us, but also Albert II, who also invested funds...

  Every day of delay in the construction of Crete is a huge loss for us!

  You have to think about it, why are those people forcing you to repay the debt at this time, and why the news about your misappropriation of construction funds was leaked? "

   Tsipras heard this, glared at a chubby middle-aged bald man next to him, then looked at Qiao Liang with a sigh, and said, "Liang, can you stop talking about these unhappy things?

  I know there are problems with our approach, but I guarantee that our cooperation with P·B is absolutely unreserved. The whole of Greece is proud of the hero Jackal. "

  Qiao Liang was amused by Tsipras' remarks. He smiled and said, "It's useless for you to be sloppy with me, and I'm not in charge of the management of P·B Bank."

  Tsipras sighed helplessly, and said, "Liang, although we haven't known each other for long, I always think you are my good friend.

  Help me, the Greek economy can't stand it!

   Our real unemployment rate has topped 21% this year, and we're going to get worse if the bonds default.

   Jackal is also a citizen of our Greece. As long as the conditions he proposes are not too harsh, I will find a way to get the parliament to pass it! "

  Qiao Liang listened, and said with a smile: "Dude, keep your current attitude when talking to my brother, I think you may still have hope..."

  Tsipras heard something interesting, walked up to Qiao Liang, and said, "Liang, your brother..."

  Qiao Liang waved his hand to stop Tsipras' next words. He pointed to the sea and said with a smile, "There are guests..."

   Tsipras frowned and looked towards the sea, and found a yacht and two escorting speedboats. He asked curiously, "Who is this?"

   Qiao Liang's bodyguard next to him, the Frenchman "One Eyed", whistled and said, "It's from the French Secret Service, and there is a team of GIGN as assistants...

  Wow, the President of France is here, their warship must be parked nearby. "

Speaking of 'one-eyed', he looked at the guys around him, smiled and said: "Guys, it's your old colleagues here, cheer up, you have to let them know that retiring to join the 'Iron Wall Mercenary Corps' A good choice...”

   Upon hearing this, Tsipras looked at Qiao Liang in disbelief, and said, "What is Brother Ma doing here? Why didn't I receive the notification?"

  Qiao Liang shook his head and laughed and said, "Brother Xiao Ma is here as a private guest at my brother's invitation.

   Today they have a private meeting, and tomorrow he will go to the premiere of 'Saving Princess Emina' with my brother.

  I don't know why the French side didn't notify you, maybe your telephone operator is on vacation. "

  When Qiao Liang was speaking, the yacht on the sea suddenly slowed down, and soon a bigger yacht caught up...

  Tsipras looked at the new yacht, opened his eyes wide and said, "Albert II is here too..."

Qiao Liang glanced at Tsipras, walked towards the pier, and said with a smile: "Albert II invested more than 80 million in Crete in the early stage, you'd better be polite to him later, this The guy is not good at talking."

   Tsipras quickly caught up with Qiao Liang, and said, "Who else will come?"

  Qiao Liang spread his hands and said: "As far as I know, Prince Al Thani of Qatar, Prince Takhnoni of the United Arab Emirates, Prince Hamandan of Dubai and Said also came.

  They are all big buyers of Crete bonds, and now some people are shorting bonds in the market, which makes them suspicious of the Crete project. "

   "oh my god!"

When Tsipras heard that they were all Greek creditors, he nervously wiped the sweat from his brow, followed Qiao Liang to the end of the pier, and said in a self-comforting tone: "They are all here to watch the movie. ?”

  Joga looked at the terrified Tsipras, and said with a smile, "Just take it for granted..."

  In fact, Tsipras is also the prime minister of a country, so there is no need to be so nervous, but Greece, as the top 5 pigs in Europe, has greatly reduced his gold content as a prime minister.

  Can you imagine that the prime minister of a developed European country would find a young man in his twenties to report every week like a punch card?

  The Greek government is so poor that even when it arranges a hotel for the prime minister, it has to compare hotel discounts. Compared with those Middle Eastern princes who are full of local tyrants, especially those princes who are still creditors, Tsipras cannot help being nervous...

When Tsipras made an urgent call to arrange security work on Santorini, a dolphin helicopter and a super luxurious Azimut yacht appeared on the crescent moon in Santorini at the same time. In the bay…

  The helicopter flew directly to the lawn of the mansion and landed...

   Watching the biggest creditor in Greece, Wall Street female shark Jamie, and a woman holding a child get off the plane...

  Tsipras wiped his hands vigorously on his trousers, looked at Qiao Liang and said, "It's just watching a movie, don't you need to be so exaggerated?

   Isn't Ms. Copco very busy? "

  Qiao Liang looked at Tsipras, who was already sweating coldly, and said with a smile: "The business in Crete is about to lose money, why can't Sister Jiami not come as my brother's partner?

  Don't worry, they don't eat people! "

   Tsipras listened, and said with a dry smile: "Is there anyone else?

  I want to call to arrange security work on the island, they can't have any accidents..."

  Qiao Liang watched a beautiful white three-body ship appearing on the sea in the distance, he said with a smile: "Don't worry, let your part-time bodyguards rest...

  P·B is the professional in this area! "
