Chapter 1210 A Real Country Paved with Gold
Du Fei and Bush got together, and Shen Jianing saw the two of them smiling and chatting happily, and the idiom "cooperating together" came to Shen's mind involuntarily.
Du Fei smiled and said: "Hey, George, I heard that your family has been having a lot of trouble recently, with anti-war and demonstrations.
Bush laughed dryly. This kind of thing is not a secret. There is no point in denying it. He was more curious about Du Fei's real purpose in asking him to stay.
Bush could guess that it must be related to the Japanese. He knew Du Fei and would not do anything unprepared.
Since he asked for 13.3 billion U.S. dollars in compensation from Toyo, he must have follow-up chips. Otherwise, if his upper lip touches his lower lip, it will be impossible to get the money.
At least the current Hua Xia does not have this deterrent effect.
Du Fei said: "George, I promised you before to reduce aid to North Vietnam. I believe you have seen the effect."
Bush nodded. What Du Fei said was factual, and it was also the prerequisite and basis for cooperation between the two parties. Otherwise, there would not be more than a dozen textile factories of the Textile and Garment Group.
"Of course, my friend, that is obvious to all." ??
Du Fei chuckled and said, "George, if I say that I can help you and further reduce the assistance provided by Big Goose to them, would you believe it?"
When Bush heard this, an incredible expression appeared on his face. Shen Jianing on the side also widened his eyes.
What an international joke, no matter how powerful Du Fei is, he can't influence Mosco. What's more, I haven't heard of any close relationship between Du Fei and Big Goose.
After a few seconds, Bush frowned and said, "Du, I know you're not a casual joker." Du Fei still smiled and said, "Of course~"
Bush said seriously: "Can you really... make the goose cut aid? Do you want to intercept their cargo ship?"
Du Fei was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly: "George, are you kidding me? You dare to intercept his ship casually?"
Bush was slightly embarrassed and said nothing.
Du Fei patted him on the shoulder: "George, I have my own way, you don't have to worry about it, you just need to believe in me and my long-standing credibility."
Bush quickly ran through it in his mind and found that Du Fei's credibility was quite strong. Since the two of them met, at least Du Fei had not cheated him.
Minmin asked with her lips: "What do you want?"
Du Fei said: "Obviously, what about the request I made to the Japanese people just now... help me get the compensation I deserve from the Japanese people, and we will help you weaken the enemy, reduce casualties, and end this as soon as possible. It’s a grueling war, and we both have what we need and win-win cooperation.”
Bush had actually guessed it, but he frowned and said: "This... Du, your proposal is very good, but I don't think it is feasible. You should be aware of our internal situation. Some elm-headed people are... They won’t watch you get such a big sum of money. They don’t care how many people die on the front line, they will just jump out and oppose it.”
Du Fei was unmoved and continued to persuade: "George, don't be so pessimistic. I don't care about other people, but I believe that Commander Nicolson will definitely be interested." He said in a more seductive tone: "Think about it, during his term of office Ending the war that has been going on for fifteen years is enough for him to leave his name in history. Besides, this does not harm your interests. It is just cutting off Dongyang's flesh, and the price can be negotiated..."
After Bush heard this, although he did not persuade him, he still had to admit that Du Fei's words made sense.
"Du, I can give you feedback, but to be honest, don't have high expectations. After all... you want too much, more than 10 billion US dollars..." "
Du Fei smiled and said, "It doesn't matter. Business cannot be done without righteousness. This does not affect our friendship." Then the two chatted some more and Du Fei personally sent Bush out of the unit.
When he returned to the backyard, he saw Shen Jianing standing in the yard waiting for him. Du Fei called "Sister Ning" to greet him into the room.
After sitting down in the room, Shen Jianing immediately asked impatiently: "Can we really get so much compensation from Dongyang this time?
Du Fei made two cups of hot tea and said with a smile: "My sister, it's not that easy. It's not just one or two yuan, or ten or eight yuan. You can just take it out of your pocket, let alone more than 10 billion US dollars. Even if it's one billion or eighty million, we can't easily pay it out. Besides, the entire East is now a colony of Meguo. We are obviously asking for money from the East, but we are actually losing money.
He has harmed Meiguo's interests, do you think he can help us? "
Shen Jianing was a little excited at first, because what the country lacks most now is capital.
The reason why the economy has been so difficult in recent years is that Big Goose suddenly withdrew its investment. It has been hard to get through the past few years, but I can only barely hold on.
If we can really ask for war compensation, it doesn't have to be more than 10 billion U.S. dollars, but a few billion U.S. dollars would be enough to solve a big problem.
This is blood transfusion from outside, living money that can be directly invested.
Just like Du Fei's fire equipment company in the past two years, the net profit handed over last year was less than 200 million US dollars, but it has already helped Zhu's father solve many problems.
Shen Jianing couldn't help but be disappointed: "Isn't it possible? Then you just..."
Du Fei smiled and said: "The most important thing to capitalists is money. It is their lifeblood. In their hearts, anything, including human life, can be converted into money, and then they can evaluate whether the deal is worthwhile. In our hands There are only two bargaining chips in hand, one is Hokkaido and the other is North Vietnam. Although these two places are important to Dongyang and Meiguo, they are not that important. I want to use these to force them. Some small things may be discussed. I really expect them to come up with it. "Tens to tens of billions?"
Shen Jianing frowned and said, "Then you said that just now."
Du Fei chuckled: "Sister Ning, there is a saying that you can hit three poles with dates but without dates. Have you never heard of it? What if they agree because of their brain twitching? It doesn't cost anything to say a few words anyway."
Shen Jianing opened his mouth, looking speechless.
Looking at Du Fei, he really didn't know what to say to this guy, so he said angrily: "Just stay alone, I'm going back."
After saying that, he twisted his butt and walked out.
Back in his office, Shen Jianing felt something was wrong the more he thought about it.
With Du Fei's character, could it really be true that he is a loser? But if not, then what? As Du Fei himself said, this little bargaining chip is obviously not enough to force the Japanese people to be willing to take money. Shen Jianing thought about it and simply picked up the phone and called her sister.
Ba La Ba La briefly explained the situation just now. Shen Jiaxing on the other end of the phone listened carefully, thought for a moment and said, "Xiao Ning, if you ask me to tell you this, I'm afraid Du Fei is a drunkard who is not interested in drinking."
Shen Jianing frowned: "What do you mean?"
Shen Jiaxing said: "Du Fei is very thoughtful in everything he does and never fights an unprepared battle. Since he knows there is little hope this time, he still brought this matter up, he must have another agenda."
"Another plot? What's the plot?" Shen Jianing continued to ask.
Shen Jiaxing smiled and said: "Then how would I know? If someone could see through it casually, he would no longer be Du Fei." Shen Jianing said "hmm".
Shen Jiaxing continued: "Don't worry about what he has planned. Just try your best to cooperate. I guess this time it may be a big move. If it succeeds, we will also take advantage of it."
Shen Jianing said: "I understand, sister, don't worry..."
On the other side, when Bush returned from Du Fei's place, he met Daisaku Yasuda who had left early. "Mr. Bush~" Daisaku Yasuda stood up and bowed, obviously waiting for a while.
Bush was not surprised: "Mr. Yasuda has been waiting for a long time."
Daisaku Yasuda said politely and asked, "I wonder what Mr. Bush thinks of what just happened?"
Bush said: "Mr. Yasuda, with all due respect, it doesn't matter what my opinion is. You and I just need to truthfully report the situation back to the country. As for the specific decisions, those big shots should consider them, right?"
Daisaku Yasuda was disappointed. Bush's words seemed pertinent, but in fact they were perfunctory. It was obvious that he didn't want to have any further contact with him.
Daisaku Yasuda nodded: "You are right. Sorry to bother you."
Bush separated from him, took a deep breath, and immediately prepared to fly back.
After changing trains and traveling a lot, it was already four days after Bush's flight landed at Los Angeles Airport.
Sitting in a black luxury Lincoln car, Bush leaned on the soft sponge backrest and spoke with
He rubbed his temples with his hands.
In the past few days, flying from Beijing to Xiangjiang, and then from Xiangjiang to Los Angeles has been exhausting for him. He still had a fever yesterday. Fortunately, we finally arrived, sitting in a car and heading out of the city in a daze, heading east.
It was dark when we arrived at the Bush family's Palm Springs villa. Bush slept in the car for a while and felt much better.
Pick yourself up and get out of the car.
Press Bush was waiting in the living room of the villa. When he heard the door open, he looked back and called "George." Bush stood still and called "Father" and sat on the sofa next to him.
There is no one else here.
Knowing that Bush was coming back, his father came all the way from Texas.
Bush had sent a telegram before, briefly explaining the situation. Prester rushed to Los Angeles for the convenience of visiting some political allies.
The father and son soon got to the point.
After hearing Bush recount the situation in detail, Price frowned and thought for a long time. After a moment, he raised his eyes and said, "What do you think about this matter?"
Bush said: "Father, although there is no way to judge whether Du Fei's statement that he can stop the aid from the goose is true or false, so far Du Fei has not broken his promise once. Moreover, Hua Xia is indeed in great need of funds now. If it can be obtained from Dongyang Receiving a portion of the compensation will go a long way in relieving the pressure on their managers.”
Price nodded as he listened.
After Bush finished speaking, he asked: "Then do you think we can cooperate and put pressure on Japan?"
Bush frowned, but shook his head: "Father, this is impossible, some people will not allow us to do this." Pres's cloudy eyes flashed with relief.
Bush continued: "The East Asia is an important fulcrum of our global strategy. It is impossible to sacrifice the interests of the East Asia for the sake of an uncertain factor."
"Then why are you in such a hurry to come back this time?" Pres asked.
Bush said solemnly: "Father, although this is the case, I think this is an opportunity. We can just use this matter to hang them..."
Press smiled, this eldest son was now becoming more and more like a qualified guest. Obviously, this is a very tempting bait.
The compensation of US$13.3 billion is enough for Du Fei to think of ways. The Bush family can profit from this.
As for whether you can get compensation in the end, that doesn't matter.
On the other hand, Du Fei was in Dad Zhu's office at this time.
Sitting on the sofa next to the coffee table, I held a cup of hot tea in my hand, sipping and drinking lightly. Dad Zhu was beside him, wearing a pair of spectacles, holding a telegram in his hand and reading it carefully.
The telegram was received more than half an hour ago, and it was sent by Airul Ali Khan from Xiangjiang.
The message is very simple, with three important information points.
First, Ailul learned through reliable channels that Xin Deli might take action against Pakistan in the near future. Second, Ailul saw this as an opportunity and wanted to take the opportunity to revolt and restore Hyderbala.
Third, Ailul hopes to obtain weapons and equipment from Du Fei. Du Fei attached great importance to Ailul's telegram.
Others don't know, but he knows very well that next year will be the third India-Based War. But regarding the second and third, Du Fei had doubts.
Before he crossed over, he had not heard of any movement in the southern Deccan Plateau during the war. Could it be the changes caused by his time travel?
Then there's Aylul's attitude on weapons procurement.
Although Ailul had placed an order before and purchased Du Fei's "Firefighting No. 1" tank and some other equipment, they were generally quite limited.
Du Fei knew without thinking that the main source of weapons for this pro-British prince must be the Yingguo people. But this time, Ailul went against the norm and actually ordered equipment worth 200 million US dollars from Du Fei.
How is this going? When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.
Did Ailul have a falling out with the Yingguo people, or was it for some other reason? Du Fei only had a flash of thought and knew that a falling out would definitely be impossible. There is a high probability that there is some unknown cat hidden here.
greasy.
Based on this consideration, he immediately came to Zhu's father and handed over the message.
Dad Zhu didn’t know much about the ins and outs of Airul Ali Khan, and he didn’t pay much attention to it. On the contrary, it was the first item in the telegram that Indu might make some moves in the near future that caught his attention.
Although the last time they fought against Indu, they were defeated, but the strategic disadvantage did not change due to the terrain.
There is nothing we can do about it. At this time, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has not yet been connected to railways, and it is very difficult to transport personnel and equipment. It is not enough to support long-term and high-intensity military operations.
Moreover, after eight years of hibernation, Indu had long since recovered, and it was not too unexpected to choose to cause trouble at this time. Dad Zhu put down the message and looked up at Prime Minister Du Fei: "How credible do you think this news is?"
Du Fei put down his tea cup and said seriously: "Dad, I think it's 80% true. When he lost to us, Yindu was unwilling to accept it and wanted to regroup. However, we were a psychological shadow and he didn't dare to act rashly. He had to pick up the pieces first." Be a soft persimmon and build up your confidence.”
Dad Zhu nodded. In fact, Du Fei had been vaccinated more than once when chatting with him. He said that there will definitely be a war between India and Pakistan in the next few years, and even predicted the course and outcome of the battle between the two sides. Some situations coincided with the telegram sent by Elul.
This made Dad Zhu pay more and more attention to it.
Then he looked at Du Fei and said, "Xiao Fei, do you have any ideas?"
In the past few years since Du Fei came into Dad Zhu's field of vision, Dad Zhu has gotten to know him quite a bit and knows that this kid has a lot of tricks up his sleeve.
Du Fei said hey: "Dad, I do have some ideas. This may be an opportunity for us." Dad Zhu retracted his gaze and looked at the teacup in front of him: "Oh? What do you say?"
Du Fei said: "Dad, Marco Polo's travel notes back then described the East as a rich country covered with gold."
Dad Zhu snorted and snorted, obviously disapproving of these words.
Du Fei didn't take it seriously. Anyway, he mentioned Marco Polo just to bring up the topic, so he just continued: "But let me tell you, the country that is truly covered with gold is not us but Indu."
Dad Zhu's eyes narrowed slightly, and he immediately realized Du Fei's plan: "Do you want to go to Yindu to make money?" The two of them, Weng and son-in-law, were talking. No one else was present, and they had no worries.
Du Fei nodded and said: "Dad, the biggest problem in our economic development now is the lack of capital. Imperialism was able to develop back then because it could plunder colonies wildly. We did not have this condition. Even when we were just liberated, we had the last bit of gold. Transported away by Principal Chang."
Dad Zhu sighed: "Yes! If we want to develop, we have to tighten our belts."
Du Fei continued: "But the problem is, if we tighten our belt again, even if we break it, we can get a few coins out of our mouth.
Dad Zhu’s expression was more serious.
Du Fei continued: "Especially now, if we want to solve the problem, it is definitely not possible to just focus on the country. We must find a way outside."
Dad Zhu agrees with this, and Du Fei's practice in the past two years has fully proved it.
Dad Zhu understood Du Fei's intention: "Do you want to take this opportunity to fight again like in 1962?"
Du Fei smiled, moved his buttocks closer to Zhu's father, and said mischievously: "Dad, things are different now. Back then we were fighting in self-defense. We could only fight, not occupy, and we were trapped by the terrain. In addition, Because of the international influence, I dare not let go, but now..."
As he spoke, Du Fei stood up, came to the map on the wall of the office, and pointed to a place, which was the northern part of Danguo occupied by Li Yuanchao.
He said confidently: "If we go from here, there is the Yunnan-Burma Road left over from that time. It can be used with a little repair, and can go directly to the northeast of Indu..." Du Fei turned around and looked at Mr. Zhu: "When the time comes , Don’t they want Bangladesh to be independent, so we can follow suit.”
Dad Zhu had a serious expression and walked to the map. He stared at the place where Du Fei pointed just now and said nothing for a long time.
Du Fei continued: "On the surface, we are still setting up a battle in the west, but in fact we are attacking here. Don't go out personally and use the banner of Li to aid Korea. After entering, don't worry about anything else, just attack those temples... .”
