(Bow and thank you for the five monthly passes of "I Love Diamonds" for their support, it's so powerful!)

It seems that you really know that you are wrong?

With Zhou Ming's words, Edward and Louis were stunned, just as Zhou Ming had the same impression of their aristocracy, Zhou Ming has always been bold and careful in their impression, maybe some ways and means of doing things will be eye-opening, but that is only a last resort in adversity, but in general, his way of dealing with problems is still very sophisticated, just like an old nobleman in his forties and fifties.

It is precisely because of these thoughts that they will always forget the fact that Zhou Ming is less than thirty years old, so now Zhou Ming is very arrogant leaning on the chair and lifting Erlang's legs, which makes them feel very incredible.

You know, one of them is the governor of Massachusetts, the other is a nobleman with proud French blood, and they are all important figures in control of the Brighton Consortium, one of the top ten consortia in the United States; if others dare to be so presumptuous in front of them, they are afraid that they will slap the table and leave, but now that the person in front of them is Zhou Ming, they have no way, on the one hand, because they have a request for Zhou Ming, and on the other hand, Zhou Ming does have this qualification.

After all, when they were in Brighton, Zhou Ming had been leading them away, and now they are in San Francisco, and they are naturally even more so;

With this in mind, Edward said to Zhou Ming: "That's right, many of our practices were very unsatisfactory at the beginning, and we regret that we didn't remedy it in time, but now when the crisis comes, we believe that Mr. Zhou Ming will not turn a blind eye, right?"

Zhou Ming wanted to shake his head and tell them, "I just like to see you being abused", but this is not necessary, first, his focus is indeed still in Brighton, and secondly, the face slap will only look cool under the premise that the other party pretends to be b, for example, if Edward and Louis are still putting up a fight in front of him today, then Zhou Ming doesn't mind slapping their faces, but now that they have confessed, if they don't let go, they will really look tasteless.

So Zhou Ming nodded and said, "That's right, of course I won't turn a blind eye, after all, we're still in the alliance now, aren't we?"

This answer made Edward and Louis breathe a sigh of relief: this is the Zhou Ming they know, it is the overall situation, and they will not easily make a small temperament, they think that if Zhou Ming really continues to be arrogant, they are ready to ask for help.

So Edward and Louis both nodded and said: "Of course we are an alliance, and it is the strongest alliance, especially we have the most powerful Mr. Zhou Ming, and you are the core of our alliance, if we don't have you, our alliance will be like a shell that has lost its soul, it is easy for opponents to find flaws, and then push us into a desperate situation." ”

Zhou Ming waved his hand meaninglessly and said: "Don't say these touted words anymore, in contrast, I am now more willing to know what happened in Brighton, can you tell me about it?"

Edward nodded and replied of course there was no problem, so he then told Zhou Ming about Brighton, which was roughly the same as what Lin Muqing told him, that is, the sudden intervention of the Rockefeller consortium, a large amount of money and various public opinion campaigns, not only stabilized Brooke's lawsuit against 45 investment companies such as Caribbean, Louis, St. Martin and New Dawn, but also stabilized the credibility of the entire CDS market.

It was also because of this trick that Edward and the others lost their biggest means against the Addams family, and they were afraid of the retaliation of the Addams family, so they were very eager to find Zhou Ming.

After listening to Edward's words, Zhou Ming thought for a while and asked, "Then do you know the reason why Rockefeller helped the Addams family like this?"

Edward thought about this question very carefully before answering: "It's because they have cooperated on a certain issue about Middle Eastern oil, and at this stage, Rockefeller still needs an ally like Adams." ”

If Edward's answer were to be put in the media, it would definitely cause an uproar, after all, the Middle East is now a powder keg, the focus of the world's attention, who doesn't want to know some inside information about the explosion? But for Zhou Ming, he was obviously not satisfied with Edward's answer.

"Mr. Governor doesn't seem to be honest, if we are really allies, you should tell me everything you know, instead of saying that half of it is left behind, for example, the oil problem in the Middle East is about to develop into a war, right?" Zhou Ming asked deliberately.

"I didn't expect Mr. Zhou Ming to even know such news, it seems that your relationship with the Tang family is really good!" Edward nodded with emotion and said, "Mr. Zhou Ming, you are right, their cooperation in the Middle East is to fund Iraq to destroy the unity of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries, so as to defend Rockefeller's oil monopoly in the world." ”

Because of Zhou Ming, Lin Muqing also has a great understanding of the situation in the Middle East, especially now that the situation in the Middle East directly affects international oil prices and the trend of many financial markets, Lin Muqing, who has long been accustomed to collecting various information, is naturally impossible to miss, she was very surprised and asked: "Mr. Governor, are you saying that Iraq's war of invasion of Kuwait was jointly instigated by the Rockefellers and the Adams family?"

"It may not be appropriate to preach and instigate, but it is impossible for Iraq to dare to trample on international law so brazenly, without the support of a certain force. Edward said.

"Then Mr. Edward, as a member of the Brighton consortium, didn't you know this news in advance?" Zhou Ming suddenly asked.

Zhou Ming's words shocked Edward, and he immediately said: "I'm sorry Mr. Zhou Ming, as a member of the Brighton consortium, of course I know about this matter, but because this matter has been privately discussed by the Addams family and the Rockefeller family before, we don't know some too detailed details, so we can't tell you......"

Zhou Ming waved his hand, interrupting Edward and hurriedly explained: "Mr. Governor, I don't think you need to be in such a hurry to explain to me, because I don't care, I just feel that since you have known the news for a long time, you haven't taken precautions at all, and now that things have happened, you can't think of a way, I really feel that you need to recharge your IQ." ”

This joke made Edward and Louie's faces feel very embarrassed: "This is indeed our negligence, we didn't expect their cooperation to be so close." ”

Then Edward thought of the key point in Zhou Ming's words just now, and he asked again: "Then Mr. Zhou Ming, you can think of a way to prevent the United States from continuing to increase troops in the Middle East, or to prevent the outbreak of this war?"

Zhou Ming smiled: "I think even the president of the United States will not be able to avoid this war now, right?"

Edward was silent, for as a politician from a consortium family, he knew the country better than anyone else. If a war is decided, it will never be decided by a certain president, it is more like a drama co-directed by politicians and conglomerates, after all, war is not just a combination of fists and kicks, and the economic wealth involved in the middle is absolutely something that no consortium can not help but be tempted by.

Just like the current Gulf War, which has not yet begun, the military has already thrown out a large number of orders to the Bell Aircraft Company and the Phoenix Directing Company, which are controlled by the Brighton consortium, and the military has already thrown out a large number of orders.

As the very literary saying goes: the horn of war has sounded, the wheels of war are rolling forward, all the factories are running at full capacity, everything is ready, and everyone is gearing up for this crazy party.

Then, if Mr. President will say that he will not do it, then these consortia will definitely kill him, just like Kendini who wanted to move the Fed's financial cake back then.

However, from the beginning of Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, to the subsequent intervention of the United Nations, the condemnation of the whole world, the deployment of US military forces in the Middle East, and even the upcoming Gulf War, it can be said that they planned it all in order to defend their oil interests through this war.

In this way, if this war cannot be stopped, then what can be done to save the defeat?

Edward had no clue about this at all, so he could only focus on Zhou Ming in the end, Zhou Ming did not give a direct answer, but asked first: "Before I say what I think, I need to confirm one thing, that is, I heard an interesting saying in the Tang family, every time the United States launches a war, there are always consortia behind it, and these consortia that benefit from it usually bear a part of the military expenses for the sake of profit, right?"

Edward nodded and said: "That's right, this is actually a means to confuse public opinion, after all, money is very sensitive, all taxpayers are very concerned about the use of their taxes, and taxpayers are also used to supervising their own national policies, if they know that all their taxes are used to feed arms dealers, then the president's approval rating can drop to freezing point in an instant, even if this is a just Gulf War." ”

"On the contrary, if the federal government can prove that the war was not all about the use of finance, but that there were contributions from corporations, or contributions from other countries, or contributions from unfamiliar accounts, etc., then taxpayers will be more likely to accept the war and the military spending during the war. Edward said.

After listening to Edward's words, Zhou Ming's heart was clear, this was completely the idea of making money from Master Tang in the movie! Call on the people to donate money to fight the bandits, and let the gentry in the township take the lead in donating, because only when the gentry take the lead, the people will follow the donation, and then when the donations are in place, the gentry's money will be returned in full, and the people's money will be divided into three or seven.

First of all, if the arms dealers of the consortium want to make money, they should share the tax account, but all the taxpayers do not agree and cannot clearly divide the tax account, so the consortium bears a part of the military expenditure through various means, and when the taxpayers see that these consortiums are all on the list, then the rise and fall of the country is the responsibility of the husband, and they have no opinion on the fiscal revenue used by the federal government. And then, as long as Congress approves this financial expenditure, won't the money still be returned to the arms dealers controlled by the various consortia?

I didn't expect that American politics is also dirty! It's just that if those poor taxpayers had known, would they have expressed their feelings of being a little more sincere and a little less routine?

Zhou Ming thought helplessly in his heart, but then he said: "In that case, what if we turn this war into a trap for Adams and Rockefeller, let them throw money into it endlessly, and finally drag them to collapse?"

"Are you saying that you want us to support Iraq to fight the American army? It's impossible, and I don't think they're going to be our opponents, and if they are exposed, it will be the biggest joke of the century, and everyone who participates in this will be hung on the pillar of shame and branded that will never be washed away!" Edward said.

"I don't stop you from being patriotic, and I don't stop the United States from winning this Gulf War, I just think it can make this war last a little longer, like the decade-long war in Afghanistan in the former Soviet Union. Zhou Ming said, "This is our routine." ”
