Chapter [-] Thoughts

"No, I think, Mr. Vice Consul, the current situation in Europe seems to be more tense, right?" Zhang Tianhao shook his head directly, not optimistic about Augustus's answer.

"Does this have anything to do with our investment?"

"Yes, it is quite related. If it is Manchuria's cooperation, if something happens, Japan can order Manchuria to terminate the cooperation at any time, then our investment will fail, and it will be the empire's money that will be lost."

Zhang Tianhao began to reveal his views to Augustus.

"Secondly, the Japanese have now launched a large-scale war in China. This is just the beginning. The Japanese attack went smoothly, but only temporarily. It's going well, but once China stretches the front line, the Japanese will lose."

"You have such confidence?"

"No, sir, this is a fact. Japan's current military strength is about 150 to 200 million. If they expand all of them, they will not exceed [-] million troops."

"However, with the population and land area of ​​China, you can imagine that as long as you persevere at the beginning, there will be a quagmire of war in the end, which Japan cannot afford to consume."

"Does this have anything to do with our investment?"

"Yes, once the resource consumption can't keep up, they will take back all available resources, even if you build it, it will be taken back, and it is only the Manchurians who violate this clause, not the Japanese."

"Thirdly, the resources of the Japanese are mainly imported, and the interests of Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union have not been touched yet. With the expansion of the war, once these countries unite, the Japanese will not have enough resources, and they will touch other people's cakes. , do you think they will give up such a piece of fat?"

"It seems to be the truth!" Augustus nodded, but did not find any other views, and was still waiting for Zhang Tianhao's further explanation.

"Fourth, Japan is a small country. Tell me, will Britain, the United States, the Soviet Union and other countries allow another powerful country to emerge in the East?"

Augustus was also taken aback for a moment, but immediately understood, and nodded again, but his face was a little gloomy.He held out his hand in a please gesture.

"Fifth, the character of the Japanese is what makes them so. They are small people, not only because of their short stature, but because they are small people in character. It's normal to be capricious."

Augustus couldn't help frowning, after all, he could tell that Zhang Tianhao was not optimistic about the Japanese, and even felt a little disgusted.

"You don't like the Japanese? Do you have a problem with their invasion of China?"

"If you say you have no opinion, you are lying. After all, I am also a Chinese. If my motherland is invaded, if I remain indifferent, then I cannot be called a human being."

"Similarly, I have not forgotten my job. At least I am a qualified translator. It is my job to do my translation well. As for other things, even if I want to help, I can't do anything."

"You are telling the truth. The Empire needs the liquid iron ore here. Do you think our qualification can be successful?" Augustus suddenly laughed.

"It depends on what angle you look at it from. If it's just whether the cooperation can be successful, it will definitely be successful. If you consider whether the cost can be recovered, it will be impossible to recover."

"Oh, it seems that you are not optimistic about this cooperation!"

"Yes, of course, this is just my personal analysis. From the perspective of Manchuria, it is definitely possible to cooperate, and it is cost-effective. However, the only thing that is not close is the external environment and Japan itself. In terms of analysis, it’s really a lot worse.”

"So it is!"

Augustus nodded, didn't say anything, but looked down at his file again.

And Zhang Tianhao immediately put the documents on the table, and then exited the box.

Although the conversation just now was very short, Zhang Tianhao knew what he was doing. Logically speaking, he shouldn't have said that, but he said it anyway. After all, he knew what was going to happen next.

While Augustus was sitting in the room, he didn't know when he took out a cigarette in his hand, picked up the lighter and lit it, took a deep breath, and then began to sit there and think.

He knew the intention of Zhang Tianhao's words, and he also understood Zhang Tianhao's character. When working in the office, he never lost his sense of proportion, or never deviated from the line.

As for whether it is a spy from Britain and the United States, he is definitely not. As for whether it is a spy from China, he doesn't care at all. Never leaked again.

He believed that Zhang Tianhao was a reliable person. As for what he said just now, he had never thought about it, nor would he think about it, but now he had to imagine it again.

After all, they have technology that Japan does not have, which is urgently needed. If it is true what Zhang Tianhao said, then he is very clear about the consequences of this war.

One is to consider the immediate interests, and the other is to consider the long-term interests. He and Zhang Tianhao are considering two directions now.

He didn't blame Zhang Tianhao, on the contrary, he wanted to thank him. Although his face was not good-looking, he still agreed with Zhang Tianhao's point of view from the bottom of his heart.

After all, Japan is a small country, and now that the war broke out in Quantong, he knows what the purpose is.Once it affects the profits of other countries in China, then other countries will definitely restrict it.

However, he also has his own considerations. As for what to do next, it depends on how and to what extent it is discussed. This is the most critical point.

"Ouch!"

Just when he was in a daze, the cigarette in his hand had burned to the end at some point, and burned directly to his two fingers holding the cigarette.

His fingers trembled, and then he came to his senses, threw the cigarette butt on the ground, and stomped it hard until it was crushed out.

"Hehe, no wonder Consul William often said that Qin is a talented person. It seems that he is really a talented person. His vision of seeing things is really not comparable to that of ordinary people."

He couldn't help laughing, and he laughed a lot.

……

In the special high school of the gendarmerie, Oda Ernan looked at the report sent by his subordinates. Last night, inside and outside Yu Zhengdong's villa, as usual, nothing happened at all.

He just glanced at the report and didn't say much. Instead, he waved his hand and continued to make people stare at Yu Zhengdong's house. After all, he believed that Zhang Tianhao would definitely pay attention to Yu Zhengdong's affairs.

It is even possible to kill Yu Zhengdong at all costs. After all, he is an old enemy. Yu Zhengdong wants to kill Zhang Tianhao, and Zhang Tianhao also wants to kill Yu Zhengdong.

Totally deadly.

It's just that he doesn't understand, it's been a day and a night, why there is no movement from Zhongtong.

According to the sentinel's report, in the past two days, someone did come and walk around the villa for a few times, and then left again. He was sure that someone had stepped on the spot, and the action was only two or three nights.

"Hehe, a good hunter can endure loneliness."

He poured himself a cup of tea, and then sipped it lightly. After all, any action requires a plan, and even a field visit, before a plan of action can be finalized.

He now has plenty of time to wait for his prey.Than patience, he never lacked.
