Chapter 114: Ava's Bait (2)
"The Chinese culture is vast and profound, and the products are extremely rich, there are thousands of kinds of tea alone..."Lieutenant General Ava took a deep breath, and then said with a little regret: "It's a pity, although this tea is good, I prefer the frozen top oolong..."
In front of Pang Jindong, an alien MD separatist, Lieutenant General Ava's proposal to drink this tea is in fact an indirect implication that country Z also has a separatist government supported by foreign forces.
The Kokang region has some similarities to TW in that it has an independent and intact government structure, financial and judicial systems, and an army that cannot be ignored.
Pang Jindong didn't understand Lieutenant General Ava's intentions, and said very calmly: "Not only the frozen oolong, but also the other two famous teas of TW...... Jin Xuan oolong and jade oolong, I also have them here..."
Pang Jindong said to Lieutenant General Ava and instructed Kazami Yaqing: "Brew a cup for General Ava..."
Kazama Masaharu couldn't hold back a smile, and said expressionlessly: "I remember that Lin Peiwen still has TW's Wenshan Baochong tea there, should I borrow some?"
Lieutenant General Ava smiled and waved his hand: "Thank you Mr. Pang for your hospitality, but you don't have to ask for it, just see what Mr. Pang himself has..."
Kazami Yaqing turned around and left without saying a word, and after a while, he brought three cups of tea on a tray.
Pang Jindong secretly snickered in his heart when he saw the three cups of tea, but Lieutenant General Ava almost cried, because the amount of these three cups of tea was too much.
Masaharu Kazama used an oversized beer mug that was almost overflowing, and the whole cup had one-third of the tea leaves, which showed how high the concentration of this tea was.
"Frozen top oolong, Jin Xuan oolong, jade oolong. After Masaharu Kazama finished his introduction, he turned and left, hiding from a distance and peeking at Lieutenant General Ava.
"Thank you..." Lieutenant General Ava's expression tried his best to remain calm, and he couldn't see any unhappiness, so he picked up one of the cups, and drank it without stopping, despite the fact that the tea soup was still very hot.
It was the first time Pang Jindong had seen someone drink tea like beer, but it was probably more difficult to drink such a cup of high-strength and piping hot tea than to drink a glass of wine of the same size.
But Lieutenant General Ava drank it like this, wiped his mouth with a tissue when he was done, and said lightly: "Thank you." ”
Obviously, Lieutenant General Ava wants to express his determination with such an action, in fact, even if he is replaced by Pang Jindong, he will do the same, in order to safeguard the interests of the country and the nation, it is still decided, and a cup of tea is nothing.
However, Lieutenant General Ava didn't feel good, his stomach was swollen, and dense beads of sweat oozed from his forehead, but I don't know if it was because it was too hot or because he was propped up.
Lieutenant General Ava really didn't have the ability to drink a second cup, so he pretended not to see the other two cups of tea, and praised Pang Jindong: "It's not a loss of the famous tea of your country's treasure island..."
Lieutenant General Ava's sentence is very technical, and he does not directly say "TW", but calls it "your country's treasure island", which is intended to express support for the unity and territorial integrity of country Z.
However, there is no such thing as "comparing the heart with the heart" in the international standard, and it is still impossible for Pang Jindong to make the same statement about MD.
Pang Jindong pointed to the other two cups and told Lieutenant General Sù Ava: "You just drank the frozen top oolong, you should taste the Jinxuan oolong again, there is a creamy taste, which cannot be made by ordinary tea." There is also this jade oolong, fragrant like orchid, as long as a cup in hand, you can forget the senseless worries. ”
"Good...... Okay......" Lieutenant General Ava nodded repeatedly, but he didn't touch the teacup, and he didn't even dare to look at it.
Pang Jindong was not interested in continuing to embarrass Lieutenant General Ava, smiled and said: "If Lieutenant General Ava is interested, I can send you some and bring them back to China to taste slowly..."
Lieutenant General Ava breathed a sigh of relief: "Then thank you, Mr. Pang..."
"You're welcome..."
"I, Ava, have admired Chinese culture all my life, and have been deeply immersed in its breadth and profundity...... "Lieutenant General Ava sighed, then shook his head and sighed: "Sometimes I really want to be a Chinese..."
Pang Jindong believed that these words were from the bottom of his heart, because there was no need for Lieutenant General Ava to curry favor with himself or the country. Pang Jindong sighed in his heart, so he felt a lot of emotion.
The phrase "Chinese culture is broad and profound" was often heard in the past, but when it comes to it today, it gives people a sense of cultural numbness, because the Chinese people have forgotten how broad their own culture is and what kind of spiritual profundity it embodies.
The Chinese people, who taste the fast food and drinks of the West that hurt their bodies, have forgotten that their ancestors have developed so much knowledge on tea alone.
By extension, today's Chinese people are accustomed to going to the West to seek ways to develop their country and society, spending a lot of energy and time studying those outdated theories, and enshrined Westerners' views, but they do not know that the leap of Western culture a hundred years ago was caused by Chinese culture, and even today's Westerners often look for wisdom in Eastern culture.
Seeing that Pang Jindong didn't speak, Lieutenant General Ava asked tentatively: "Do you have something on your mind?"
Pang Jindong smiled reluctantly and replied, "Oh, there is no ......"
Lieutenant General Ava looked at Pang Jindong, and suddenly these three words came out: "It's a pity, ......"
Pang Jindong immediately asked, "How do you say it?"
"MD culture is barren, and it has been greatly influenced by your country in history, and it is entirely possible to get more help from your country......" Lieutenant General Ava shook his head uncontrollably: "Actually, this is not the case, so I say it's a pity ......"
It takes great courage to be able to admit the shortcomings of one's country and nation in front of outsiders, and Lieutenant General Ava's words not only did not make Pang Jindong despise MD, but won Pang Jindong's respect because of this courage.
What's more, Lieutenant General Ava's remark throws out a bait to compliment Chinese culture and imply that country Z can have more influence over MD.
Pang Jindong believes that if MD can be turned into a vassal in the modern sense, that is, like those Western allies of country M, then the significance to country Z will go far beyond a Mubang republic.
Because MD has a huge territory, abundant human resources, and access to the Indian Ocean, which the Republic of Mubang does not have.
But under this bait, there is a hidden fishhook, because the main ethnic group of MD is different from country Z after all, and the cultural ties are not very close, so they may not be reliable.
Although it is possible to temporarily unite with country Z because of interests, when the interests change, it is not impossible for MD to defect to the hostile camp.
Whether it is from the point of view of the existence of this fishhook or from the family's emotions, it is impossible for Pang Jindong to change his attitude towards the Mubang Republic.
As for the relationship between country Z and MD, even if it is severed because of the independence of the Republic of Mubang, it can change over time.
Diplomatic relations between the two countries will be rebuilt many years from now, and they may even remain allies.
E snatched two or three million square kilometers of land from country Z in history, and split two countries from country Z, and the relationship between the two countries is still very good today, so good that country E shoots and kills a few citizens of country Z, and country Z treats it as if it didn't happen, and brothers can't reach this kind of process.
And so on, so can the relationship between country Z and MD.
But on the other hand, Pang Jindong had to worry that this would impress the senior leaders of country Z, and then adjust the strategic policy of the southwest region.
Considering that Lieutenant General Ava had secretly visited Awa some time ago, and then recalled the appearance of Jin Zhenyu when he mentioned Lieutenant General Ava, Pang Jindong had no doubt that he had conveyed similar information to the high-level of country Z in some way, and today he was just repeating the old trick here.
It is conceivable that Lieutenant General Ava's bait was thrown back from Kim Jin-woo, and Kim Jin-woo has a decisive say in the national strategy, so Lieutenant General Ava did not succeed. However, he may have impressed the dovish General Zhao at the top.
General Cho was already a little annoyed that he had not been able to prevent the state from intervening in the Kokang War, and this time he went all out to oppose radical policies, and even plotted to overthrow Kim Jin-woo.
General Ava's sentence is very simple, and Pang Jindong deduced a lot of things from it, that is, the quasi-coup d'état launched by General Zhao before was indirectly promoted by Lieutenant General Ava.
"Your country and the southwest of our country are similar to each other, and it can be said that the two countries are separated by a strip of water, and there are still decades of compatriot feelings..."Pang Jindong took a sip of tea, and then continued: "It is supposed to support and help each other..."
Lieutenant General Ava shook his head and sighed: "But due to the existence of the Mubang Republic, this relationship may be buried..."
Pang Jindong smiled slightly, and pointed out sharply: "Are you tempting me to give up the Mubang Republic with benefits?"
Lieutenant General Ava also smiled slightly: "I don't dare..."
"Whether General Ava dares or not, I'm very happy to know General Ava..."Pang Jindong pointed to the tea on the table, and said with a little regret: "Actually, we should have a drink between us, but now we are using tea instead of wine..."
"I'm sure we'll have a chance to have a drink together..."General Ava looked at his watch, then stood up, "It's a pity that I can't do it today, because I'm leaving..."
Pang Jindong also stood up: "It's rare for General Ava to come here, why don't you sit for a while?"
"If you stay for a long time, you will be noticed by your country's security services..."Lieutenant General Ava sighed and laughed at himself: "It's not easy for me to come once, I visited your country once a few days ago, but it's impossible to find a chance to visit Mr. Pang... So ......"
Pang Jindong continued: "So you re-entered the country with a false identity..."
Lieutenant General Ava nodded: "Yes..."
