Chapter 700: A loyal old friend
Chapter 700: The Righteous Old Friend (Second update, please subscribe)
Peninsula's assist has not yet come, but the assist from an old friend has come.
On the third day after Li Yi'an arrived in Washington, Washington's not-so-famous Senator McCarthy criticized the Truman administration on television and used the fact that aid to Southeast Asia had been blocked to prove his previous remarks - that the federal government had been infiltrated by the Soviets. Through the sieve, the interior was filled with Soviet spies.
"When the Soviet Union was manufacturing atomic bombs, I remember countless people's remarks, proving that the Soviet Union's atomic bombs were for world peace and self-preservation. Now I want the gentlemen who previously held this view to explain that before we When our ally Nanyang developed an atomic bomb, how could it become a regional threat?”
McCarthy on the TV screen looked very emotional.
"This regional threat, as some people call it, has been making every effort in the past few years to prevent the Russians from extending their footprints to the South Pacific. In fact, as I speak, the Russians have established an alliance with Indonesia. The Russians were not only expanding on the peninsula, but also in Southeast Asia. However, at this critical moment, someone blocked assistance to Nanyang. This is simply what Russian spies would do. As I judged before Everything, within the coalition government, is filled with hundreds of Russian spies..."
This kind of aimless shooting without any evidence, as well as the excited and even hysterical expression, in the eyes of McCarthy supporters, is the true manifestation of patriotism. This kind of emotion that no one loves America more than me is the true American. mood. There is nothing American about those well-dressed government officials.
"Your friend spoke out for you again!"
Margaret said with a smile, nestled on the man's shoulder in her room at the Watergate Hotel.
"For me and for himself."
Xun chuckled and Li Yian said,
"For politicians, all they need is to seize any opportunity, steal the spotlight, and gain exposure. This is the most important thing. As for the purpose, it is nothing more than to gain power."
After thinking about it, Margaret said.
Thinking of King George VI who would die in more than a year, Li Yian couldn't help but sigh.
"I feel so tired when I accompany you on this trip. I want to go back to London, give birth to the child and then go back to Nanyang. Is that okay?"
Looking at Li Yi'an understandingly, Margaret asked.
After stretching, Margaret lay on his chest and said.
George VI's health... is really hopeless. Even now, he smokes cigarettes every day.
Li Yian said while touching the swollen belly of the British princess.
"Because things are important! Since things are going well now, I want to go back to London first, father..."
After returning to the UK this time, she found that her father's health seemed worse than before. That's why I wanted to spend more time with my father. After all, for Margaret, her father's love for her had always been unreserved and even endless.
However, Li Yian was powerless about this matter. There was no way. With the current medical conditions, some diseases, let alone in this era, are incurable even in the 21st century.
"Well, I should spend more time with him."
Margaret is pregnant again, this is his and her fourth child. After the Greek shipping king visited, Li Yi'an learned his lesson and worked very hard on the issue of creating humans.
“Is this why you don’t like politicians?”
"Well, actually, I can do it by myself this time."
"Well, I actually don't like them either."
What's the bottom line...it's clear that there is no bottom line, right?
What about black lives mattering, what about gender, what about opening up the country, those politicians have no bottom line at all for those few votes.
"In the end, you still have to come with me."
"His health seems to be not good. I want to spend more time with him."
"I don't like them because I know where their bottom line is!"
You must know that he has lung cancer. Now I still smoke so much every day. It's true.
In the past few days, she had been working very hard. She had to accompany him to the banquet every day, chatting and laughing with politicians and friends in Washington.
Forget it, let Margaret spend more time with him.
Early the next morning, when Li Yi'an was about to leave Washington for New York, Margaret took a flight back to London.
But before leaving, Li Yian still invited McCarthy out and had a drink with him. "Joseph, my friend, thank you for your outspokenness. Among all my friends, you are the first one to stand up and speak out for me and Nanyang. As I have always said, McCase is my elder brother." My friend, the biggest gain from my last visit to Washington was getting to know you.”
With McCaci's slap in the face, the aid to Nanyang was quickly approved. After all, if he didn't approve it, he would really be accused of being a spy.
"Your Majesty, we are friends, aren't we?"
McCarthy said,
"It's really a pity that you can't stay here for a few more days. I've always wanted to find an opportunity to entertain you."
A few years ago, he was just a guy who could lose the election at any time, and now he is the hottest guy in Washington! He is a darling in the eyes of the news media, and of course a mad dog in the eyes of some people.
But no matter what, McCarthy now is definitely different from the past, and he is no longer the worthless guy. Naturally, he has the capital to entertain Li Yian.
"Thank you."
Li Yian smiled.
"If you have the opportunity, you are welcome to visit Nanyang, or pass through Nanyang when you conduct inspections in Southeast Asia."
After a pause, Li Yian said.
"At that time, you will know how right you are to support Nanyang."
Li Yi'an looked completely sincere. He had even decided that he must invite the American members of the two congresses to Southeast Asia, India and other places for inspections, even if Nanyang paid for it.
For no other reason than to let them understand who is Southeast Asia's first line of defense against the Iron Curtain.
Of course, once they understand, they will definitely send money to Nanyang.
If you want to be the boss, you have to behave like a boss.
During the Cold War, U.S. foreign aid was generous.
In the next few decades, tens of millions of babies will be born in Nanyang, and Americans will pay to raise them. Isn't this very appropriate?
This is not begging, this is a manifestation of the value of united front.
Even if Nanyang's economy one day surpasses that of Soviet Russia and becomes the second largest economy in the world, it will still have to ask the United States for money.
Although asking for money like this is somewhat unjustifiable from a moral perspective. However, for a country that wants to assist other countries even if it reduces domestic welfare expenditures and strives to become the world's leader, if you don't want money, you will definitely look down on it.
Therefore, in order to make him feel comfortable, it is appropriate for Nanyang to feel a little wronged and ask for more help.
It’s better not to bother others with this grievance. Nanyang can just take care of it.
McCarthy did not know that His Majesty, who had given him a lot of help, was accepting aid from the United States with a grievance, and he was also planning to surprise his old friend by increasing aid to Nanyang.
In his opinion, it is what a friend should do. Of course, he didn't want to say it until the matter was done.
Let's wait until it's done and then give him a surprise.
McCarthy thought so and said when he heard his friend's invitation.
"I will definitely go there to see if I have the chance. But not to see how correct my knowledge of Nanyang is, but to see old friends."
McCarthy said.
"Aiding foreign countries is something politicians need to consider, but visiting an old friend's home is what a friend should do."
After saying that, McCarthy laughed, as if he felt the sincerity of his friend because of this invitation.
