Hearing little George say that Schroeder was frightened, Chen Geng was also very happy: "So, the Germans are very likely to agree to our request to increase the military spending?"

Speaking of this, little George couldn't close his mouth happily, but his mouth was quite modest: "I can only say that there is a lot of hope!"

Hearing little George say this, Chen Geng knew that this matter was probably nine out of ten, and immediately said with a smile: "With the bonus of this political achievement, George, congratulations, the success rate of your re-election is getting bigger and bigger." ”

There is no doubt that if George Jr. can push Germany to increase its share of military spending in a less drastic way during his tenure, it will be the biggest achievement of George Jr.'s tenure, and this achievement alone will be enough to increase George Jr.'s chances of re-election by 10 percentage points.

Little George himself understands this, so he laughs very happily: "Haha...... Hopefully, hopefully, Fernandez, thank you, if it weren't for your help, I really wouldn't have dared to think about it. ”

He sincerely thanked Chen Geng, because before this, little George had never thought that he would be able to "convince" Germany and get the German government to agree to increase the proportion of their share of the cost of garrisoning.

As for why George Jr. didn't think so, the reason is actually very simple: all along, the opposition to the stationing of US troops in Germany in Germany and the demand for the withdrawal of US troops from Germany have been rising, and George Jr.'s thinking has been distorted, his idea is to ensure that the number of troops and bases in Germany is not reduced, which is considered his own great achievement, as for letting the Germans increase the proportion of military spending apportioned?

How dare he think about it?

But it's such a thing that I couldn't think of before, so I just let Chen Geng do it, you just say that Niu X is not Niu X.

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why little George is so polite to Chen Geng, this is not only because Chen Geng is one of the governors of the 50 states in the United States, but also because Chen Geng has helped him too much.

Thinking of this, Little George said regretfully: "Dude, it's a pity that you are a Chinese, if you are white, I think you can even be a commander." ”

Even at this time, in the eyes of the vast majority of Americans...... Including in the eyes of blacks...... The Commander of the United States is the toy of white people, such as blacks, Chinese, Mexicans and other colored people or minorities, it is impossible to become the Commander of Millican.

Little George was very sorry, but Chen Geng didn't see it that way, he smiled and said: "George, you can't say that, the position of the commander is indeed very tempting, but for me, in fact, the position of senator and governor is more suitable for me." ”

"Oh, how do you say that?" said little George.

"It's very simple," Chen Geng explained to little George: "The grand commander can only serve two terms at most, just like you, you are only 63 years old after two terms, but in the Senate, there are a few old guys in their 80s, I think, even if I don't become a governor anymore, I will mix up the position of senator in the future, and then mix until I am dying, it should not be a big problem, you say, if I stay in the position of senator and governor for half a century, how much influence will I have in the political arena of destroying the country?"

“......”

Little George's eyes straightened when he listened: Politics can still be played like this?!

Indeed, just now, little George was still regretting that Chen Geng was a Chinese and could not become the great commander of Millican, and felt that with Chen Geng's ability, he was fully capable of being a great commander, but Chen Geng's next words shocked him fiercely: Yes, he can no longer directly participate in politics after retirement, even if he can be successfully re-elected in the next general election, but after his two terms as president, he is only 63 years old, and after that, it will be more troublesome for him to influence politics.

But what if, as Fernández Chan did, how much influence would he have when he was a senator until he died?

Thinking of this, little George smiled bitterly: "Fernandez, if I had heard your words a few years ago, it is uncertain whether I would still run for the position of commander." ”

Chen Geng was very open-minded and said with a smile: "I bet that even if I told you about this before you ran for election, there is a good chance that you will continue to campaign." ”

Is that the case?

Little George wanted to refute, but when the words came to his lips, he couldn't say a word to refute - it seemed that he really thought so.

Also, in a few years, the world will not remember that there was a governor or senator named George Jr., but they will definitely remember that there was a great commander named George Jr. in the history of Millican, but although he said that, there was always an inexplicable sourness in Little George's heart.

It was Chen Geng, who felt the unwillingness of little George on the other end of the phone, groaned for a while, and said, "George, why don't I visit you, I think we should have a lot of common language." ”

Well?

Chen Geng's words made little George stunned for a moment, and then his heart moved: he somewhat understood what Chen Geng wanted to talk to him.

"Of course," said little George without hesitation, "Laura and I warmly welcome you to come to us at any time." ”

........................

When Chen Geng saw Little George, it was already the second night.

Although the place where the two met was in the White House, it was in the Commander's Residence in the East Wing, and when she saw Chen Geng, Laura enthusiastically sent two glasses of strawberry juice, and then handed over the space to Chen Geng and Little George.

"Try this strawberry juice, it tastes very good," Little George raised a glass of strawberry juice and gestured to Chen Geng: "Let me tell you, this is a strawberry grown by Laura herself on a small piece of land." ”

"This is a strawberry grown by Ms. Laura herself?" Chen Geng was a little surprised.

He understood the meaning behind Little George's move: of course, a glass of strawberry juice is not very much, but if the strawberries used in this cup of strawberry juice were grown by Little George's lover himself, then the situation is different, which represents the importance that Little George and his family attach to this meeting with Chen Geng.

"Yes," little George was very happy with Chen Geng's reaction, and he proudly introduced to Chen Geng: "Laura likes strawberries very, very much, Jenna and Barbara also like strawberries very much, and even our family has a soft spot for strawberries, I have grown a large number of strawberries on a farm in Texas, but you know, since I took this position, I have rarely had time to go back to Texas, so Laura specially planted some strawberries cultivated by our family here with Jenna and Barbara." ”

Chen Geng tasted it and praised: "The taste is indeed very good." ”
