Make France Great Again

After confirming the type of ore, Gaston immediately reported the news to Rastignac and Andrei Milanovic who stayed near the mine.

After Andrei Milanovich listened, he asked Gaston doubtfully: "Mr. Gaston, what is the value of this mine?"

Gaston sighed and responded to Andrei Milanovic with a hint of regret: "Unfortunately, our research on manganese metal is still continuing! According to what I know so far, In other words, apart from being used to make crucibles and potassium permanganate, metallic manganese has no other uses!"

"So, isn't this mine a waste mine?" Andrei Milanovich asked Gaston with a slightly excited tone.

"That's true!" Gaston nodded and said regretfully to Andrei Milanovich, "Most of the ores in this mine contain high manganese content. Unfortunately, the role of manganese is too limited. It’s limited!

Perhaps in a few decades, if our research on manganese is deeper, these ores will be useful! "

"Secretary-General, what should we do now?" Andrei Milanovich turned his attention to Secretary-General Rastignac, "Should we return the same way or should we continue to stay here!"

Secretary-General Rastignac's expression was solemn. After a moment of silence, he said to Andrei Milanovich: "Major Andrei!"

"Here!" Andrei Milanovic straightened his body and responded to Rastignac in a sonorous tone.

"You will continue to be stationed here and must ensure the safety of the mine!" Rastignac said seriously to Andrei Milanovich.

"But..." Andrei Milanovich wanted to argue. He had been staying here for nearly a month and now he didn't want his troops to stay here.

"This is an order!" Rastignac said to Andrei Milanovich in a strong tone.

"Yes!" Andrei Milanovic had no choice but to obey Rastignac's order.

Who gave Rastignac the highest official position in the entire Government House.

"Mr. Gaston, please come with me to the Governor's Palace and report this news to the Governor!" Rastignac turned to Gaston and said.

After listening to this, Gaston and the members of the geological exploration team all had smiles on their faces. They were full of joy and thought that as long as the survey was completed, they would be able to return to France.

"Okay!" Gaston nodded and replied to Rastignac, and then added another question: "When will we set off!"

"Let's set off now! It just so happens that a supply ship is coming today. We can take the supply ship back!" Rastignac replied to Gaston.

"Secretary-General, there is one more thing!" At this moment, Andrei Milanovic spoke to Rastignac again.

"What's the matter?" Rastignac asked Andrei Milanovic.

Andrei Milanovic replied to Rastignac: "Today is the time for the supply ship to arrive! Since we are ready to leave, there is no need to continue supplying! Please tell the supply ship to let them go the same way. Go back! This way you can avoid unnecessary waste!"

"Avoid unnecessary waste? I think you just don't want to get it!" Rastignac laughed and cursed.

Andrei Milanovic just smiled and said nothing.

"Okay! I will tell them!" Rastignac nodded and responded to Andrei Milanovic.

Therefore, Gaston and his party and Rastignac immediately set off from the open-pit mining area to the boarding place.

After nearly three hours of journey, they finally arrived at the Ntuya tribe near the embarkation point.

After seeing Gaston and others, the two militiamen responsible for guarding the gate of the Ntuya tribe quickly ran into the tribe and reported the news to the old chief.

The old chief hurriedly said to his grandson Bongo Ntua: "Quick, come out with me!"

The old chief and Bongo Ntua, a pair of grandparents, walked out of the house, arrived at the gate of the tribe, and walked towards Rastignac and his party.

The old chief and Rastignac met in the middle of the road. The old chief enthusiastically asked Rastignac: "Dear Secretary-General, have you identified the ore in that mine?"

"What? Do you, the Ntua tribe, also want a share of the pie?" Rastignac asked with a slightly unkind tone.

After staying in this place full of woods and poisonous snakes for a few days, Rastignac had already accumulated a lot of resentment in his stomach.

If the type of ore is what the Governor's Palace or France needs, then his work is not in vain. Who would have thought that the type of ore would have no effect at all, which made him feel that what he did was not worth it at all.

"No! No!" the old chief quickly replied, "Our Ntuya tribe does not mean this, we just want... want..."

"I want to ask if the Governor's Mansion needs help!" Bongo Ntua helped his grandfather complete the following words?

"That's right!" The old chief looked at Bongo Ntua with grateful eyes.

"That's not necessary!" Rastignac's expression became slightly kinder, and he responded calmly: "The ore in that mine is a useless waste mine. We will report it to the Governor's Palace after , evacuate all the troops stationed in the mine!"

"That's such a pity!" The old chief also sighed. He was originally planning to use his slaves to work for the mining area to make profits!

Now it seems that his idea is destined to be just wishful thinking.

"Okay! Stop talking! We are ready to leave!" Rastignac continued to say to the old chief.

"Then I won't keep you! I wish you a safe journey!" the old chief said at last.

After Rastignac and Gaston waited for a long time at the landing site, a troop transport carrying supplies appeared in front of them.

After seeing Rastignac on the shore, the captain of the troop transport quickly sent a small boat to pick up Rastignac on the ship, and then asked Rastignac: "Your Excellency Secretary General, why are you here to accept the goods?"

Rastignac responded to the captain with a blank expression: "I'm not here to pick up the cargo!"

"What are you doing?" The captain looked at Rastignac in confusion.

"I'm going back to the Governor's Palace!" Rastignac continued to explain to the captain: "All the work in the open-pit mining area has been solved. Now I need to return to the Governor's Palace to report the situation to the Governor!"

"Secretary-General, is that mining area a gold mine?" the captain asked Rastignac in a low voice.

"Gold mine?" Rastignac rolled his eyes at the captain and said angrily: "What you think is quite beautiful, but it's a pity that it's not!"

"Hey!" the captain sighed.

"Okay! Don't sigh, we are about to set off!" Rastignac patted the captain on the shoulder and said to him.

"Secretary-General, our goods haven't been delivered to them yet!" the captain reminded Rastignac.

"They specifically entrusted me to tell you that they don't need it anymore!" Rastignac said to the captain.

The captain was stunned for a few seconds, then nodded to himself and said, "That's right! They won't be able to stay here for a few days anyway, and it would be a waste to send them any more supplies!"

"Okay! We can set off!" Rastignac said to the captain.

"okay!"

The captain quickly ordered his crew to start nodding. After half an hour, the troop transport finally turned around and returned, and arrived in Libreville three and a half hours later.

Rastignac disembarked from the ship quickly and immediately ran back to the Governor's Palace with Gaston.

Rastignac arrived at the Governor's Palace office along the stairs and saw Jerome Patterson sitting at his desk working, and knocked gently on the door with his hand.

Jerome Patterson raised his head and looked at Rastignac, with a smile on his face and said to Rastignac: "Rastignac, Gaston, you are back!"

"Yes!" Rastignac and Gaston also answered Jerome Patterson.

Jérôme Patterson put down the pen in his hand and invited Rastignac and Gaston to sit on the sofa next to the desk and chat.

Jerome Patterson, who was sitting on the sofa, asked the two of them about the type of ore. Gaston responded to Jerome Patterson: "Your Excellency, the ore produced in that open-pit mine is manganese ore! "

“Manganese ore?!

! "Rastignac's expression was slightly surprised. He was surprised by his uncle's miraculous foreknowledge.

This made him wonder whether his uncle had really been blessed by God. Otherwise, how could he determine that the ore was manganese ore.

"That's right!" Gaston sighed again and said to Jerome Patterson: "It's a pity! We couldn't find valuable ore for the Governor's Palace!"

"It's not your fault! Gaston!" Jerome Patterson responded to Gaston, and then invited Gaston to go back to rest in a tactful tone.

After Gaston left, Jérôme Patterson said to Rastignac, "If we build a manganese ore factory near the mining area, how much will it cost."

"What!" Rastignac looked at Jérôme Patterson in shock. At this moment, he especially wanted to ask the boss in front of him if there was nothing wrong with his mind.

Later, Jérôme Patterson told him that France had developed a method of desulfurizing ferromanganese, which meant that the demand for manganese ore in France and even the world would greatly increase, and they no longer had to think about importing manganese ore from the New World!

Rastignac's eyes lit up after hearing this, and he instantly understood what Jérôme Patterson meant, "I'll get ready right now!"

"You have to do it faster!" Jérôme Patterson said to Rastignac: "It won't be long before the representatives of Paris-Nord Industrial Group will be here!"

"Understood!" Rastignac stood up and said seriously to Jerome Patterson.

A few days later, a representative of Paris-based Norindustrie appeared in the governor's office of Jerome Paterson. He explained to Jerome Paterson his intention to monopolize manganese ore.
