Meng Shaoyuan was holding a cup of tea and sipping it slowly.

This is tea that was finally obtained from China.

He promised Levi time to leave.

Because he still has to wait for someone.

Sheikh Dan!

He knew that Sheikh Dan would definitely come.

If he was as visionary and far-sighted as Marcos, then he would not have come.

Unfortunately, he is not!

"Sheikh Dan is outside asking for a meeting."

When Li Zhifeng came in and said this, Meng Shaoyuan laughed.

"Just say I'm sleeping and let him wait for a while."

"clear."

After returning home, Sheikh Dan thought it over carefully and must have discussed it with his family members.

So, what I have to do now is to show that I don't take him seriously.

After waiting there for almost 20 minutes, Meng Shaoyuan was called in by someone.

He stretched and yawned: "Mr. Narendasan, I'm so sorry. I slept too late yesterday and kept you waiting for a long time."

"Colonel, you have worked hard, so you should wait a while." Sheikh Dan said politely.

That's right, after returning from Meng Shaoyuan, he immediately held emergency consultations.

The position of administrator of the eight provinces of Northern Luzon is too tempting for the Narendasan family.

Compared to the feud with the Marcos family, this is the most important thing.

But he must get the clearest answer from Colonel Charles.

"Please take a seat."

Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "Fortunately you came today, otherwise, you would not be able to see me for a while."

Sheikh Dan was startled: "Colonel is leaving Manila?"

"No, just do some official business near Manila." Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "But it will take a little time, maybe half a month, maybe half a year. If Mr. Narendasan comes a little later,

I’m afraid the agreement between us will no longer count.”

Sheikh Dan was taken aback.

If that really happens, I will become a sinner of the Narendasan family.

Meng Shaoyuan said this. In addition to telling the other party that he did not attach much importance to this matter, he also cleverly set a time for Sheikh Dan:

Just today, everything must be dealt with.

Sheikh Dan will no longer be given time to go back and continue discussions.

"Colonel, let's get started." Sheikh Dan did not dare to delay: "The Narendasan family and the Marcos family are feuding by blood. This hatred affects every generation of the Narendasan family. We are absolutely

There will be no reconciliation with the Marcos family. But..."

All the words are in the word "but": "However, under the brutal rule of the Japanese, the Philippines suffered serious damage, a large number of farmland buildings were destroyed, and a large number of Filipino people were massacred. The top priority now is

Reply to Philippines order as soon as possible.

Under such circumstances, the Narendasan family is willing to put aside their grudges temporarily and will not continue to assassinate Ferdinand Emmanuel Edlarin Marcos."

"Look, Mr. Narendasan." Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile: "It's great to hear such words from you. Peace, nothing is more important than peace. Of course, as your mediator,

I and the US government will not let the Narendasan family suffer.

You have given up to a certain extent. Now, let me tell you what your giving up can bring to you. First of all, I promise that Marcos will hold an important position in the new Philippine government in the future, and Northern Luzon

The United States will ensure that the administrators of the eight provinces are appointed by members of the Narendasan family."

This is what the Sheikh Dan and Narendasan families value most.

The reason why they wanted to assassinate little Marcos was that they could not tolerate the Marcos family becoming the rulers of Cagayan River, Ibanag, and the entire Northern Luzon.

That is something the Narendasan family will never tolerate.

There is their traditional power there.

There is a lot of land there.

That is a huge wealth for the Narendasan family.

Meng Shaoyuan continued: "Of course, after the Narendasan family becomes the administrator of Northern Luzon, everyone's private property interests must be protected from infringement."

"Yes, Colonel." Sheikhdan immediately understood what the other party meant: "I said that the grudges between the Narendasan family and the Marcos family have been temporarily put aside, so the Marcos family's property in Northern Luzon will definitely not

will be violated."

He's not that stupid.

Marcos also received asylum from the Americans. If there is a settlement of accounts against the Marcos family, God knows what changes will happen in the future.

Secondly, after Marcos enters the center of power in Manila, coupled with the local influence of the Marcos family, it will also form a deterrent to Northern Luzon.

Once he really starts to plunder the Marcos family's property, the two families will inevitably start fighting again.

Relying on the local power of the Marcos family and the help from Manila, the Narendasan family has no chance of winning.

From another perspective, after Marcos leaves Northern Luzon, the development of his family will definitely be affected.

When the Narendasan family came to power, they could develop their territory aggressively.

So from any angle, Sheikh Dan would never do anything stupid like that.

"Look, Mr. Narendasan, I'm very grateful for your generosity." Meng Shaoyuan looked very satisfied: "This is an almost perfect start. Of course, I also said that before you, I had already worked with Ma

Mr. Kos made some agreements which I hope will be kept after the Narendashans come to power.

American companies in Northern Luzon, or more accurately, centered on the Cagayan River, need three thousand hectares of land, as well as the United States' own security forces to ensure the safety of American property there."

"I totally agree."

Just like Marcos, three thousand hectares of land was nothing in Sheikhdan's eyes.

And once American companies enter, it means more business opportunities and more opportunities to cooperate with Americans.

This is what Sheikh Dan wants.

"If American companies have needs, the police in Northern Luzon and the Narendasan family will never sit idly by," Sheikh Dan said categorically.

"Thank you very much." Then, Meng Shaoyuan asked the key question: "Also, we have 30 years of exclusive rights to operate rice and tobacco in Northern Luzon, and the prices are set by us."

"I agree."

In this regard, Sheikh Dan's attitude is different from Marcos's.

Marcos hesitated when he heard this request.

But Sheikh Dan agreed wholeheartedly.

Because Sheikh Dan knows one thing very well.

The Americans are not so kind as to mediate the conflict between the Narendasan family and the Marcos family.

Unless they are really busy.

The reason why they do this must be because they need huge benefits in return.

By handing over the exclusive rights to operate rice and tobacco to the Americans, the Narendasan family will indeed suffer a lot.

But in the long run, this will be beneficial.

Due to the poor road network, rice and tobacco from the Cagayan River cannot be transported out, and prices have never increased.

Now that the Americans have taken over these two projects, they will definitely start building roads.

This is equivalent to giving untold benefits to the Narendasan family and the entire Cagayan River.

Give up rice and tobacco, and there are many other opportunities to make money.

Why bother making Americans unhappy because of these things?

Xie Hedan's reaction was also something Meng Shaoyuan did not expect.

He originally thought that he still needed to pay some attention to it.

Well, from a political perspective, Sheikh Dan is not as good as Marcos.

But from a business perspective, Sheikh Dan surpassed Marcos.

Of course, to ensure future interests, the Narendasan family still needs to be tied into the same boat.

Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said: "I am very happy to have such a pleasant conversation with you today, Mr. Narendasan. Of course, I will not let you pay for it in vain. I promise to give the Marcos family a certain amount of shares. Likewise.

Yes, I will also give the Marcos family the same shares."
