The boss of a foreign organization called the police, claiming that he was defrauded by me

Especially Hirata Momojiro, he praised President Baip's proposal highly, with a flattering smile on his face, the degree of exaggeration was unbearable to look at.

Looking at his appearance, he was less than 1.6 meters tall, which made him look particularly short in front of Westerners. He was sitting on the same chair, but he seemed to be a head lower than others, with no temperament at all. If someone who didn't know him saw him, they would never think that he was the president of a country, but more like a follower of Bai Pu.

Compared with President Kim of Simi Country, he was much shorter. In addition, he always tried to please Bai Pu deliberately. His expression, posture and tone made people feel uncomfortable.

President William looked at this scene with a frown on his face. His expression was not as optimistic as others. He was silently calculating the feasibility of this plan. He knew that Baip often spoke eloquently, but not everything he said was true. If anyone believed everything, they would suffer a great loss sooner or later.

"Are you guys thinking too well?" President William finally couldn't help but speak, his voice seemed particularly abrupt amid the crowd of flattering voices, "In fact, things are far from that simple. First of all, Kyushu may not necessarily ask for our help; secondly, now that all the elite teams have lost contact, we can't contact them at all, so how can we talk about subsequent help?"

His words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing the enthusiasm in everyone's hearts. The atmosphere instantly became cold and quiet.

President Baip's originally raised mouth corners suddenly fell, and his expression was unhappy. He obviously felt a little embarrassed, but because it was President William who was speaking, he couldn't get angry.

The comprehensive strength of the British country should not be underestimated, and it has close cooperation with many countries present. Therefore, Baipu could only suppress his dissatisfaction and sit in silence.

Seeing this, the other presidents pretended nothing had happened and continued to remain silent to avoid further spread of the awkward atmosphere.

However, Hiramojiro couldn't hold back. He asked on behalf of Baip, trying to refute President William's point of view: "Is President William overthinking it? We just couldn't contact the elite team temporarily, and it hasn't been long!"

"Also, we have lost contact before. We just need to wait for the elite team to contact us." He continued, "As for help, even if they don't need help now, we can still create opportunities to help them!"

Hiramojiro's words were full of deep meaning. He laughed evilly a few times, and his plain face looked particularly sinister. If he were in a movie, he would definitely be the perfect choice for a villain - sinister, cunning, and hideous.

Their so-called "help" was nothing more than an attempt to take advantage of the opportunity to gain benefits. As Hiratajiro said, if there is no opportunity, create one! Everyone present was a smart person, so they naturally understood it.

President Radi could not help but nod his head repeatedly, expressing his deep agreement with Hirata Jiro's words. He had always looked down on Hirata Jiro before, thinking that he was just a small-minded person who could only flatter. However, this time, Hirata Jiro came up with such a "brilliant plan" at a critical moment, which made Radi look at him with new eyes.

"President Hirata is right. We don't need to think so much and worry about nothing. If there is no opportunity, we should create one. Kyushu has really narrowed its own path this time and is rushing to give us benefits!" President Radi said passionately.

"Perhaps this time we can offer to waive the high interest rates as a condition for helping them. If they don't agree, then let them watch their warships being destroyed!" He then added, "This plan is totally feasible! I heard that even the elders of Kyushu have been dispatched this time, and they can't just stand by and watch them die."

President Radi was well aware of Kyushu's troop deployment and knew that there were very important people on the warship, so he spoke without hesitation. He was even more convinced that Baipu and Taojiro's proposal was extremely feasible and enough for Asan to turn the situation around.

"That makes sense, I agree!" President Markham was the first to express his support.

“I agree too!” President Kim followed closely.

Before, they had hesitated after President William's analysis, but after listening to the opinions of Hirata and Radi, they changed their positions instantly.

Seeing this, President Baip smiled smugly again: "I also agree with President Ping Tao and President Radi!"

The situation became one-sided again. President William was originally just a little skeptical, but after listening to the analysis of others, the balance in his heart began to tilt. He didn't care too much about Bai Pu's attitude, but just talked about the matter. He thought it made sense and agreed: "Okay!"

Although President William's words were brief, they showed his attitude. Seeing William's statement, President Baip's expression also eased a lot, without the previous hostility.

In fact, it was Bayp who took the initiative to provoke many times. He was always prejudiced against those who opposed him, and was particularly concerned about the opinions of President William, who was also a powerful country. However, President William was always pragmatic and never considered whether he would offend Bayp. He only cared about the interests of the United States, and confronting Bayp was a complete waste of time and a thankless task for him.

On this point, President William is indeed much more open-minded than the narrow-minded and vengeful Bayp.

"In that case, we should now discuss what conditions we should propose. This time, we must at least make Kyushu return the profits it made by taking advantage of our misfortune!" Baipu said seriously, his voice revealing anger and unwillingness.

They were forced to sign an unequal agreement with Kyushu because they were in urgent need of funds. Now, they finally have a chance to "get back" those benefits!

"We can ask them to waive the high interest in the agreement and just pay back the principal. It would be best if we could postpone the repayment for a few more years!" Markham was the first to make a suggestion. He had been thinking about the agreement and was worried about the high interest.

"Yes! The interest is too high! We can sign a new agreement, declare the previous agreement invalid, and we will formulate new terms!" President William also expressed his own opinion. The United States had borrowed about 20 billion US dollars before, and the interest accounted for almost half of the principal. This still hurts him. At the beginning, they had no choice. In order to keep the technology, they could only spend money reluctantly. Now it seems that their choice is correct! For example, the United States has already handed over the technology, and it is too late to regret it now.

Thinking of this, President William couldn't help but feel a little fortunate. He almost sold the technology because he couldn't bear to part with the money.

President Kim of Simi also agreed to the proposal to waive the interest. He said eagerly: "It's good enough to waive the interest! Of course, it would be even better if their exported goods could be cheaper. This part of the agreement also needs to be renegotiated!"

When this topic was mentioned, President Jin, President Markham, and Hirata Momojiro were all deeply touched. They had previously spent a huge amount of money to sign a contract with Kyushu, and the price of the raw materials they purchased was much higher than the market price. They were really cheated! The sum of this money is not less than the huge interest. As long as the purchase quantity is large enough, it will be an astronomical figure! Kyushu made a lot of money for nothing!
However, they had no choice at the time. What they bought were necessities, and only Kyushu could provide such a large amount of goods at one time. Although they could also buy from other small countries, those countries were often barely self-sufficient and it was difficult for them to have excess goods for export.

In addition, there are differences in food culture. For example, the people of Simi cannot do without Chinese cabbage for every meal, but this is not the case for people in every country. Some countries do not even eat this vegetable, let alone grow it in large quantities. Therefore, if Simi wants to import a large amount of Chinese cabbage, Kyushu is undoubtedly the best choice. Not only can it reduce transportation costs, but it can also continue to purchase a sufficient amount of Chinese cabbage.

Therefore, even though President Kim knew that the agreement was a bit of a scam, he had no choice but to sign it. After all, the Simi people can't live without cabbage!

If there is a lack of effective balance between the government's macro-control and the free competition in the market, and capital is allowed to intervene without restraint, even the most ordinary cabbage will be pushed to sky-high prices due to speculation. Ultimately, this irrational market phenomenon will trigger a series of livelihood crises like a domino effect, and even cause inflation, dragging the economy into the abyss of recession.

"Perhaps, we should consider seeking financial support from Kyushu, or use them as a bridge to obtain equipment from Kyushu's arms suppliers." A voice made such a suggestion.

"There must be some kind of agreement between Jiuzhou and those arms dealers. We can make full use of this and let Jiuzhou become our intermediary, so that we can successfully get what we need from the arms dealers." Another person added, with a calculating gleam in his eyes.

"President Hirata, what do you think about this?" President Baip suddenly asked this question. He had a new plan in mind. Directly attacking the base could bring temporary benefits, but if they could use the power of the Kyushu government and establish a direct cooperative relationship with arms dealers, they could easily obtain the most advanced weapons without using a single soldier.

This idea is not groundless. In a previous negotiation, the United States successfully sold a technology to Kyushu without having to bear high interest burdens.

In addition, they have not signed any other agreements with Kyushu. If the United States acts according to the ideas of President William and others, it will be difficult for it to benefit from it.

In the face of interests, the so-called friendship seems so fragile, and the relationship between countries is essentially a game of interests.

Hearing this, Hirata Momojiro looked a bit hesitant. The proposal of President William and others really made him excited. After all, there were a lot of purchase contracts between Neon Country and Kyushu Country, and huge deposits were paid.

If the cost can be reduced, it will be a considerable saving. However, when he looked at President Baip's unfathomable expression, he did not dare to express his opinion easily.

At this moment, President William seemed to see his hesitation and said, "The cooperation between Neon Japan and Kyushu is indeed close. If the cost can be reduced, a lot of money can undoubtedly be saved." His words were full of temptation, trying to pull Hirata Momojiro into his camp.

Hiramojiro's expression became even more tangled, his eyes flickered, his hands were clenched together, and his fingers moved unconsciously. Everyone could see his inner struggle.

He knew that President William's proposal was indeed an opportunity for Neon Country, but at the same time he was worried about President Baip's reaction. If he chose to stand on President William's side, President Baip's anger would be unbearable.

Just when Hirata was in a dilemma, President Baip suddenly uttered an ambiguous hum, breaking the silence. This hum was like a thunderclap, which instantly woke Hirata up.

"Lord Baip's insights are indeed brilliant. We cannot always be limited to the agreements and frameworks of the past. We must have a broader vision." Ping Taojiro finally made a choice and decided to stand on the side of President Baip. This was also a helpless move. After all, Neon still needed the support of the United States, and it was not easy to tear the face now.

President William was not surprised by this. He just looked at Hirata with a meaningful look, which contained sympathy, contempt and ridicule. Hirata lowered his head and avoided President William's gaze. He knew what the other party was thinking at the moment and did not want to make himself unhappy.

President Baipu was satisfied with Hirata's choice. He looked at him with appreciation and prepared to continue to expand his camp. "President Jin, what do you think of this? I believe you will make the wisest choice for the Simi Kingdom." His words were full of threats and hints.

When President Jin heard this, beads of sweat oozed from his forehead. He thought of the agreement that Simi Country had signed with the United States not long ago, and the amount of money that had to be borrowed. He knew very well that the agreement President Baipu mentioned was not the cooperation between Simi Country and Kyushu Country, but the agreement between Simi Country and the United States.

"I think... Mr. Baip's proposal makes sense." After weighing the pros and cons, President Kim finally chose to stand on President Baip's side. He knew the consequences of refusing, and if the cost could be reduced through renegotiation, the money saved would be enough to repay the US debt and even have some left over.

In this way, President Baip successfully won over both Hirata and President Kim, and took up half of the votes. President William's face became more serious, and he realized that the situation was not good. He did not expect President Kim to take sides so quickly, and Baip's proposal was not tenable in his opinion.

"This is absolutely ridiculous! Since Kyushu has already sent troops, how can we still use it to sign contracts with arms dealers?" President William finally couldn't help but stood up and slammed the table hard. "As for the so-called fund allocation, how much can it be? What will be left after dividing it into six parts?" His voice became hoarse due to excitement. (End of this chapter)
