"Charlie, this is not a wise move!" Damian said, wiping the corners of his mouth with a handkerchief.
Coughing made him unable to control his crazy secretion of saliva, which was about to flow out from the corners of his mouth...
In fact, it has already leaked out.
"That's my family matter... So, what exactly is the topic of this meeting, can we continue?"
Since they think they are small roles who only need to be ‘notified’, saying more is just a waste of time.
So, it’s better to continue according to the schedule.
"War is inevitable, does anyone want to say anything?" Damian murmured sleepily, wiping his mouth with a handkerchief.
"I will provide enough uniforms for the coalition forces. First, I have to get the orders." Gafferson Stewart said.
"I think the military should purchase a new batch of aircraft, I mean helicopters. They are more suitable for the complex terrain of the Yue domain!"
"hey-hey!"
Li Zitao had to interrupt again and sneered: "You mean helicopters, which seem to have been invented by Boeing."
Li Zitao pointed to his mouth and said word by word: "Look here, B, o, e, i, n, g, Boeing."
Duke Richard Henry shook his finger and said: "No, the point is not who invented it, but who made it better and better!"
"Pfft~" Li Zitao burst into laughter.
In fact, he did just that, spraying the whiskey from his mouth directly into Richard's face.
"god, what are you doing?"
"Sorry, the clown opposite made me laugh... Let me think about what that clown's name is... Ho, Richard, that's a really funny name!"
"You rude... bastard." Richard Henry looked at his fist and changed his words.
"Hey, can I get a pancake? With bacon and a drink on the way!"
Li Zitao shook his wine glass and said to the unknown assistant behind him.
"Charlie, please respect this meeting!" Damian knocked on the table and said seriously.
"Sorry, Damian... I wanted to respect this meeting, but, you know, you invited a clown to perform... Haha, I'm really sorry!"
Li Zitao really hates the bastard opposite him.
Those gloomy eyes, aquiline nose, cheeks that looked like they had been cut with a knife, that face...
Yes, that's the owl-like face.
He's about to vomit!
I believe the same goes for Richard Henry opposite.
The cheeks are bulging, the dead fish eyes are protruding, and the face is green...
"alright."
Damian took out his small wooden hammer and banged on the table.
Li Zitao spread his hands to indicate that he would not speak again.
Richard also turned his green turtle face away...
"By the way, I have to add one more thing!"
Li Zitao raised his finger and said with a malicious smile: "Don't forget, those are two nuclear powers!"
…
Li Zitao really wanted to take a photo of this moment, Damian's face was so wonderful.
It looked as if someone had placed a plate of frogs in front of him and cut it open to reveal a vole inside.
Then I saw a cockroach inside, and finally found a fly stuck to the cockroach's leg!
Hoho~
Wonderful, quite wonderful!
"They don't have the capability to launch long-range missiles."
"you sure?"
"That's right, they don't have the ability to launch a direct attack."
"At sea, there is our unrivaled Pacific Fleet."
"We also have the Atlantic Fleet, a strong American Army and Air Force."
"I hope they can withstand the power of nuclear peace!"
Li Zitao shrugged nonchalantly and said, "I hope your homes will all have built anti-nuclear bomb shelters, and...it will be strong enough!"
The terrifying mushroom cloud reappeared in my mind. As the earth shook and the mountains shook, the clouds were blown away by the strong wind.
450,000 people died and more than 140,000 were injured.
To this day, new deaths are seen almost every year.
They suffered painfully from the sequelae of radiation, deformities and more before they died.
Perhaps when people in later generations think of nuclear explosions, they will only say: Oh, that was so terrifying!
In fact, I don't think so.
Because it is too far away from life...
So far away that people already regard it as a synonym.
But everyone here has truly witnessed its power!
Even if you haven't seen it with your own eyes, you can really feel its horror from the series of numbers, photos, documentaries and medical documentaries.
"Well, I think you should be concerned about another issue. Our balance of payments situation is deteriorating...
Isn’t it true that no one is paying attention to the fact that gold reserves are being lost to the outside world in large quantities? "
Jonathan tapped the table with his fingers and said seriously: "This is the issue that everyone should be concerned about!"
Unexpectedly, he was greeted by poker faces.
Someone was whistling and trimming his nails, but no one was interested in his topic.
"Man, I have to say, that's the Fed's job, you care too much."
"I disagree!" Li Zitao raised his hands like a good baby and said.
"The crisis has arisen. If someone pretends that it does not exist, or that it has nothing to do with him, then I can only think that he is a stupid, selfish son of a bitch."
"Don't forget, your advantage is also based on the strength of the United States. Will losing this advantage do you any good?"
"At its peak, we owned 78% of the world's official gold reserves. Almost all the world's gold was here, here..."
"Look now, who can tell me how much gold reserves are left?" Li Zitao looked at everyone with a mocking smile.
"17.2 billion, 600 million less than last year, and this situation is still going on!" Lawrence said funny.
They turned a blind eye to the terrible situation in front of them. These greedy guys only focused on immediate interests.
They all have the mentality of getting something for nothing, watching the fire from the other side, and sitting back and watching the storm.
They want to see who will be the first to jump out and deal with the problem. Even if it is really bad, they think it will not affect them.
Maybe then they can take advantage of the situation to buy at the bottom and make a lot of money!
"Since you care so much, why don't you take out your gold and help everyone solve this problem!"
"We all know what you are saying. We have purchased 2 tons of gold every year since 1935. Now it should be 52 tons... I think the real amount is more than that."
Richard Henry finally found an excuse to attack him again.
Unfortunately, the reason he came up with was too ridiculous.
Even if all of Li Zitao's gold reserves were taken out, the reserves would only amount to more than 100 million.
It's a drop in the bucket of what's going on.
The United States' gold reserves are being lost at a rate of $6 to $1 billion per year.
What can $100 million in gold reserves be enough for?
Richard Henry also understood this truth, he was just too angry!
The best racial discrimination, those jokes and swear words were all suppressed by a fist that could smash through the table.
The feeling of suffocation made him...want to cry!
