Chapter 359: 359I resigned
Chapter 359359I resigned
Burnas, in the spacious reception room, Harry rubbed his temples tiredly. Now, he is responsible for the operation of Bunas City and is busy until late at night every day.
Although the financial center is moving to Dragon City, Bunas, which is still the most important city of Datang Group, still has a lot of government affairs.
He has to manage a lot of things every day, including flu outbreak response measures, including updating sewers and laying telephone lines, including the maintenance of electric wires...
In addition to road maintenance, railway expansion, construction of military field airports, and planning of civilian airports...
A lot of infrastructure construction was enough to make him overwhelmed. He also had to represent the Datang Group to receive special envoys from all over the world in Bunas.
There is no way. Although Tang Mo has now gone to Long Island, Bunas is the most famous city controlled by the Tang Group, and envoys from many regions still come here to visit it.
At the moment, there is a dwarf from the northern region, chattering in front of Harry: "What the Ice Kingdom can give you! So can we! If you are willing to support our Western Dwarf Kingdom, we are willing to pay any price!"
The support of the Tang Group brought great changes to the Ice Kingdom. The battle that destroyed the Northern Dwarf Empire made the Ice Kingdom famous in the northern region.
Many dwarf kingdoms had to face the threat of the Ice Kingdom, and many secrets were sent back to their homeland. Then these dwarf kingdoms sent envoys to Bunas for help.
Their request is simple: they want what the Ice Kingdom has! Whether it's a cannon or a rifle, whether it's a steam engine or a railroad train, none of them can be missing! To this end, they are also willing to give up their mineral resources, their tariffs, and even more things, such as ceding cities or taking out a large number of slaves.
"Unfortunately, we cannot do anything to betray our allies, so... reputation belongs to reputation, and business belongs to business. If you are willing, we can transfer civilian technology, including food cultivation, which can effectively improve your living conditions." Harry He yawned and started talking in a boring tone.
The foreign policies of the Datang Group are all established, and he cannot change them. The other party has no friendship with the Datang Group, and it is impossible for Tang Mo to change his attitude toward the Ice Kingdom, with which he has always cooperated happily, just for the sake of some Western Dwarf Empire. Attitude.
There is no reason to talk about this kind of thing. In fact, it is the simplest question of first come, first served.
Sometimes the same is true for falling in love. There is no special reason, just because one person comes first, then the person who comes later has no chance. In fact, there are some, but you have to start the upgrade path from the number three. That’s all.
Obviously, Datang Group is not a scumbag, and has no intention of easily shaking the foundation of cooperation with the Ice Kingdom, so Harry has no reason to change his stance.
Hence, the Datang Group can provide all assistance except substantive help to these later dwarf kingdoms.
In other words, Datang Group is at least more like an individual than the United States—they are willing to provide food growing technology, fertilizers and other materials, as long as the dwarf kingdoms are willing to pay.
Even if given enough money, Datang Group is willing to sell expensive new drugs and light industrial machinery for civilian use.
As long as these kingdoms have some self-development capabilities, these civilian machines can make them rich to some extent and accumulate some capital.
But it is obvious that the other party is not willing to wait at all, or in other words, the other party has no time to develop slowly.
"But, we need rifles! Cannons!" Therefore, the dwarf envoy from the Western Dwarf Kingdom emphasized in a loud voice.
Harry continued to answer in a routine manner: "Unfortunately, the agreement we signed with the Ice Kingdom has clear terms..."
"Then tear it up! We can give you everything! As long as you..." The envoy of the Western Dwarf Kingdom stood up anxiously, as if he was about to rush in front of Harry.
Harry continued to repeat himself, like a wheel that kept spinning: "Unfortunately, we..."
Datang Group is not Cyric, and Tang Mo is not prepared to tear up any signed contracts. He wants to maintain the credibility of the group, because on the other hand he has to maintain his own monetary and financial system.
A good reputation is worth more than many advantages. At critical moments, credibility can be compared to a super weapon.
Don’t think that breaking your promise can bring you huge benefits. The lost credibility will make things more complicated, and may eventually backfire, making the person who broke your promise pay a greater price.
In fact, in the real world, the collapse of the Western credibility system is more direct and fatal than the collapse of hegemony.
This caused them to lose credibility and the right to speak in the public opinion field. This is more deadly than a collapse on the battlefield.
Because of the existence of nuclear weapons, under the new world order, it is impossible for a war to annihilate a country to break out between major powers. Therefore, the position of public opinion and the core of ideology are the core of the battle for war.
The Western world has lost credibility and the right to speak. The losses are visible to the naked eye. With their reputation ruined, they can no longer make the kind-hearted Chinese people believe the lies of those public intellectuals who have surrendered to the enemy. With the real fear of fighting and the lies exposed, the Western world has been pulled down from the altar, from a lighthouse to a wet market next door full of chicken feathers.
So, Tang Mo was not willing to play like this. He wants to maintain his credibility as much as possible while being ahead of the times.
At least he will keep this fig leaf until he is willing to tear it apart and ruin his credibility!
"Please! We are even willing to hand over our customs and our mines, as long as you are willing to... help us like you helped the Ice Kingdom..." The envoy of the Western Dwarf Kingdom obviously wanted to seduce Harry again, and he felt more More benefits will definitely make the other party's heart flutter.
Although Harry was indeed moved, he still cruelly refused: "I'm very sorry, your meeting time has come. If you want to cooperate with us in civilian technology, please discuss it at the next appointment..."
Are you kidding me? If there is an enmity with the Ice Kingdom, Datang Group will lose the Everwinter Port base at the northernmost point of the Endless Sea.
With the loss of Yongdong Port, Datang Group has gained control of more Northland mines. Where will they transport them back?
In the various dwarf kingdoms in the North, there is no railway extending all the way to Osa Port in the south. It is impossible for the Datang Group to abandon the important strategic port of Everwinter Port.
"You will regret it. The **** in the Ice Kingdom are all despicable and shameless guys! You will regret it!" The special envoy of the Western Dwarf Kingdom was still unwilling to give in. He did not dare to reach out to grab Harry's collar, so he could only bluff. threatened.
Harry certainly didn’t take it seriously. Even if the Ice Kingdom really rebelled, Datang Group would have many ways to get back everything it wanted.
This deal, from beginning to end, was the dwarf kingdom begging Datang Group. Only by seeing all this clearly can we know who is the leader of this transaction.
“Send off the guests!” He ordered calmly.
The guards on both sides opened the door, which meant that the meeting was over.
The special envoy of the Western Dwarf Kingdom left in dejection. Although they were extremely unwilling to do so, they had no other options since they had no port, no navy, and were not bordering the Tang Group's range of strength.
They cannot threaten the Datang Group, and they do not have the ability to solve transportation problems. Therefore, even if their natural resources are better than the Ice Kingdom, they lack the leverage to impress the Datang Group.
…
The door to the room was pushed open again, and Harry became energetic in an instant. If he was only at 30% state when facing the envoy from the Western Dwarf Kingdom just now, at this moment his body is functioning at 200%.
Because, this time the person who came in was a woman.
In other words, a girl.
The Youlin is now taller and more graceful, becoming more and more beautiful. She is not the kind of peerless beauty that makes people feel stunning at first sight, but she makes people feel more and more interesting the more they look at her.
She was wearing casual clothes, loose and not revealing any curves. She put one hand in her pocket and held a travel bag in the other hand.
This first female squad leader has very beautiful facial features, especially her eyes, which seem to be able to speak. Just one glance will leave a deep impression on people.
"I'm resigning, and I'm going to Long Island." As she said this, she threw the expensive travel bag designed by Tang Dynasty Fashion Design on the coffee table, and sat casually on the sofa, as lazy as a little cat. cat.
"Um...big sister...didn't the teacher say it before he left...next year you will go back to Dragon Island with the experimental project..." Harry felt that negotiating with Youlin was more stressful than talking with an imperial envoy.
"It doesn't matter, I went there just to let him scold me." Youlin smiled, with two very nice dimples on his face: "Do you think he would be willing to hit me?"
“Gudu…” Harry swallowed and looked elsewhere - please, if you are going to flirt with the teacher, don’t bring trouble on me, okay?
Seeing that he was silent, You Lin picked up the hair by his ears with his fingers and rolled it twice: "Arrange a boat for me! Otherwise, I will have dinner with you here."
"You might as well eat me..." Harry winced in pain, closed his eyes and gritted his teeth: "I'll arrange a boat for you! You should leave quickly... If Garza and Dino find out, I will definitely Being peeled off every layer of skin…”
"Thank you!" You Lin stood up, grabbed the travel bag in front of him, and waved his hand: "Let's go! No need to see me off."
"Alas..." Covering his face, Harry began to worry about how he was going to explain this matter to the principal.
