Chapter 027: Signing of the Treaty
PS. Present the May Day update, don't hurry up to play after reading, remember to vote for the month first. From now on, you can enjoy double monthly passes for the 515 Fan Festival, and you can also take a look at other activities with red envelopes!
Half an hour later, negotiations began again.
The current negotiations were much easier than the previous ones, and Bush Jr. gave up the idea of building a military base on Dream Island and instead talked with Su Hongwen about cooperation between the two sides.
When Su Hongwen listened to the cooperation content proposed by Bush Jr., he looked at Bush Jr. dumbfounded and asked, "Mr. President, I heard you right, right?" The government of the United States actually formed an alliance with Dream Island and sold me weapons and equipment? ”
Come on, we were still hostile before, why are we allies and buying weapons now?
"Yes, Mr. Su, you heard me right, I hope that the two of us will form an alliance, and as long as it is not nuclear weapons and ballistic missiles, other weapons can be sold to you." George W. Bush said with a smile.
Since it is impossible to establish a military base on Dream Island, then take a step back and turn Dream Island into its ally, and when there is an emergency in the Indian Ocean region, the warships of the Mi Army can dock at the port of Dream Island for replenishment, which is the rule of allies.
Moreover, the U.S. government can also lend money to Dream Island for construction and the purchase of arms, and the amount can be larger, with the land of Dream Island as a guarantee.
Once Dream Island is unable to repay the loan on time, then the government of the United States will have enough reason to occupy the land of Dream Island.
Even if Dream Island finally repays the loan on time, the government of the United States has nothing to lose, so why not?
The most important thing is that Dream Island has become his ally, which completely eliminates the possibility of Su Hongwen falling to Huaxia.
Su Hongwen looked at the smiling Bush in astonishment, and thought about it, there seemed to be no traps in this, and he agreed to Bush's cooperation, so the invasion incident could be easily solved, and he had nothing to lose.
Although at this stage, the starry sky can create all kinds of military weapons that surpass the current technology, but Su Hongwen does not plan to expose the fact that he has the ability to produce weapons so quickly, and he will wait until he is stronger in the future.
In this way, you can only buy military weapons from the United States, but who is not buying? As long as the price is right.
After careful consideration, Su Hongwen nodded and agreed to the cooperation proposed by Bush Jr., and said: "Mr. President, the price of those weapons sold to me won't be too high, right?" I'm not Japanese, I don't have that much money to buy weapons, after all, I still have to keep the money to build Dream Island. ”
Seeing that Su Hongwen agreed to form an alliance, Bush Jr. was very happy and said with a smile: "Of course, the price of the weapons sold to you will not exceed 10 percent of the price of the internal equipment of the Mi Army, this price is very affordable, and the Mi government can lend you 10 billion US dollars without interest, you only need to take a piece of land on Dream Island as a guarantee." ”
Dream Island Land Guarantee? Hehe, it's really a dog can't change to eat -, it turns out to be waiting for me here!
However, I'm afraid it will disappoint you, just 10 billion US dollars, and the "Excavator" will be enough to go deep into the bottom of the sea for a few days.
However, if you don't borrow for nothing, with this $10 billion Dream Island, the construction speed will be accelerated a lot, after all, even if the treasure salvaged is not suitable for a while, it is too eye-catching.
Thinking of this, Su Hongwen squinted his eyes and smiled: "Then I don't know how many years this repayment period is?" ”
"Five years!" George W. Bush stretched out his left palm and said.
Su Hongwen nodded and said, "Yes, five years is five years." ”
After that, Su Hongwen had another discussion with George W. Bush and determined the various construction materials and military weapons that Dream Island needed to purchase in the United States.
Within a year, Dream Island must purchase 2 million tons of various steel products, 10 50,000-ton transport ships, 10 Boeing 767 passenger planes, 10 Boeing 777s, and 500 cars of various types.
In terms of Air Force weapons, two E-2C Hawkeye 2000 early warning aircraft, two squadrons of 24 F-16D Eagle Falcon fighters, 12 AH-64 Apache helicopter gunships, 12 S-70 (export model) Black Hawk medium utility helicopters, and 12 PAC-3 Patriot anti-aircraft missile launchers.
In terms of naval vessels, there is a weakened version of the Arleigh Burke-class guided missile destroyer, three Perry-class frigates, and eighteen Hamina-class stealth missile boats (purchased from Finland).
As for the various firearms and individual equipment used by the army, they were given to Su Hongwen by the United States, and the number was enough for 10,000 people.
The total value is $9.9 billion.
This is also because these military weapons are not brand new, and they are directly delivered to Dream Island after being transformed from the current service of the Mi Army, otherwise the price will be even more expensive.
Su Hongwen was actually dissatisfied with the weapons purchased by the Mi Army on Dream Island this time, because many of them were not needed by Dream Island, such as the Arleigh Burke destroyer and the Perry-class frigate, after all, these were pure tatters to him, and a small warship in the "Adika" exploration spacecraft could easily maintain the safety of the waters around Dream Island.
And those fighter jets and helicopters, which don't need so much at all, and they are just a decoration when they are bought.
Su Hongwen wanted to use the $10 billion loan to buy steel and other materials needed for construction, but Bush Jr. refused to agree to it, making it clear that most of the loan must be used for the purchase of military weapons.
For the sake of the "friendly" relationship with the Mi government at this stage, Su Hongwen finally had to endure the unhappiness of being pitted and agreed to buy those "tattered" weapons for him.
In the future, there will be an opportunity to earn back the money from the people of the United States to buy these "rags", let's ride a donkey and read the record book, and we'll see.
Subsequently, Su Hongwen signed a treaty of alliance between Dream Island and the United States, which stipulated that in the actions of the United States, Dream Island has the right to choose whether to send troops, but the warships and fighters of the Mi Army have the right to enter the ports and airports of Dream Island for replenishment.
However, Su Hongwen is not stupid, and added a time limit to this treaty, that is to say, if the Mi army enters Dream Island for supplies, it can only stay on Dream Island for a maximum of one week, and military personnel are not allowed to leave the supply ships and planes to enter Dream Island, and after a week, Su Hongwen has the right to drive away the Mi army's warships and fighters.
Then, George W. Bush also signed a statement in which the US government recognized Su Hongwen's full sovereignty over Dream Island and recognized Dream Island as Su Hongwen's private property.
After all the treaties were signed, Su Hongwen and George W. Bush held a press conference at the White House.
At the press conference, George W. Bush explained that the landing of the US army on Dream Island was a misunderstanding.
This misunderstanding is to land on the island to capture the pirates, and now that the pirates have been caught, the warships and military personnel of the Mi Army will immediately leave Dream Island.
As for whether this explanation is reasonable, whether the reporter and the public believe it or not, that is another matter.
At the press conference, George W. Bush and Su Hongwen announced at the same time that Dream Island and the United States have formed an alliance, and the United States government will provide an interest-free loan of 10 billion US dollars to Dream Island for the construction and defense of Dream Island.
It was not stated at the press conference of the arms deal, after all, this still needs the approval of Congress, but I believe that the congressmen of the United States are happy to see it happen and will not block this huge arms deal.
Finally, after attending a dinner hosted by George W. Bush, Su Hongwen and his 15 escorts left the White House.
