"Do you dare?"
Looking at General George, who had just gotten off the plane, Swift asked with a smile.
General George's face froze.
Do you dare?
The simple three words, like a fishbone stuck in his throat, did not cause him any substantial damage, but made him feel very uncomfortable.
Truly.
He didn't dare.
He knew very well that Swift's position in the United States was very important, and the United States' position in the world was also very important, and the most important thing was that although Swift had broken into the military base, he did not make any unusual moves, and he did everything according to the required rules, and even surrendered all his weapons.
In this case, if he dared to do anything to Swift, he would be in big trouble.
As the U.S. Secretary of Defense, Swift's experience will be recorded at any time, so there is nothing he can do until Swift has not committed a violation.
"Haha...... General Swift laughed. ā
As soon as that gloomy face changed, General George suddenly burst out laughing, and while stepping forward to shake hands with Swift, he opened his mouth and said, "I don't know, what is the matter with the general?" ā
"Are you sure you want to say it here?"
Swift asked, glancing around.
"Please."
General George immediately stretched out his hand, pointing to the interior of the military base, and made a gesture of please to Swift.
Soon.
The two of them went to an office at a military base.
"This room has the best soundproofing materials, and it is being monitored every minute, it is an absolutely safe safe house, and if the general has anything to say, you can rest assured."
Closing the door to his office, General George spoke.
"You should know exactly what I'm here for."
Swift looked at George with a smirk.
"Huh?"
George was stunned for a moment, opened his mouth and said, "If the general doesn't say it, how can I know?" ā
"Okay."
Swift chuckled lightly and opened his mouth to say, "Then I'll just say it without talking nonsense." ā
"Please."
George smiled.
"My purpose is simple."
Swift pursed his lips and opened his mouth to say, "I want a strange fruit!" ā
"Odd fruit?"
George frowned, looked at Swift blankly and asked, "What is this strange fruit?" ā
"Hmph."
Swift snorted coldly, opened his mouth and said, "General George, we don't need to play these little tricks between us, the strange fruit is the fruit that grows on the two magical plants that your troops are guarding." ā
"That thing, it turned out to be called Qiguo?"
George nodded knowingly.
"Got it?"
Swift curled the corners of his mouth and smiled, and said, "As far as I know, there are two strange fruits guarded by your troops, and I want both!" ā
"Impossible."
George immediately shook his head.
"Huh?"
Swift's face changed, and he opened his mouth and said: "General George, you should know very well that the conversation between us does not represent us personally, but the United States and Australia!" ā
"Of course."
George nodded, shrugged his shoulders and asked, "But, even so, so what?" ā
Hear the words.
Swift's face instantly turned gloomy.
"General George, I want to remind you, don't forget the economic exchanges between our two countries, more than 60% of Australia's diamonds, who holds it?"
Speaking of which, Swift continued: "Also, if I'm not mistaken, there seems to be a big deal between our two countries that hasn't been signed, right? ā
General George's face sank.
Truly.
Australia's largest economic network is diamond minerals, and most of these diamond minerals are sold to the United States, where they are professionally processed and then sold to all over the world.
Although Australia's diamond processing technology is not inferior to that of the United States, the interests involved are completely different, and the reason why the United States can monopolize more than 60 percent of the diamond mineral resources is because of its international status, and only through the hands of the United States will diamonds be accepted by some countries and bring benefits to Australia.
In simple terms.
If there is no United States in the international community, at least about 30 percent of Australia's diamonds will become unsalable.
Thirty percent represents economic benefits that are not something that ordinary countries can afford.
Other than that.
Australia and the United States also have arms deals.
Most of the advanced weapons, as well as the core technology, are sold by the United States.
Now, Australia is trying to sign a contract with the United States for the core technology of a new type of weapon.
As Australia's Minister of Defence.
George was well aware of what the deal meant.
However, the United States has been delaying again and again and has not signed a contract.
Now, this trade contract is like a lifeblood, pinched in Swift's hands, which makes General George can't help but feel a wave of anger rise in his heart.
In his opinion.
This is simply blackmail, and there is no humanitarianism at all.
"If I'm not mistaken, the United States is about freedom, fairness, and justice."
General George said with a calm face.
"That's right."
Swift said with a sneer: "However, the premise of paying attention to freedom, fairness and justice is to have enough strength, only the strong are qualified to say freedom, fairness and justice!" ā
As soon as these words came out.
General George's face became even more ugly.
If it was just a threat before, now it's a pure threat.
"Of course."
Swift walked up to General George, patted General George's shoulder with a proud face, and said: "As long as you promise to give me these two strange fruits, we in the United States will also give you enough benefits, such as signing a transaction contract immediately, and then increasing the purchase price of diamond minerals a little more, which is already a very big benefit for you, right?" ā
Listen to Swift.
The anger in General George's heart grew stronger and stronger.
He didn't know what the strange fruit was, and he didn't quite understand the real use of the strange fruit.
But.
But he knew very well that what could attract so many people all over the world, even Swift personally came to fight for, was definitely not an ordinary thing.
So many people all over the world want it.
On what basis for the United States?
And.
Swift's arrogant and condescending attitude also made General George feel very unhappy.
Just one contract, and want to exchange two strange fruits?
This is simply wishful thinking.
George was well aware.
No matter how tough the United States is, as long as he can stick to Qiguo, there will definitely be more countries willing to cooperate with him.
"How?"
Looking at General George, whose face was pale, Swift hooked the corners of his mouth, put on a confident look, and asked, "Have you figured it out?" ā
"Nope."
Hearing this, General George turned his head sharply, opened his mouth and said, "I won't give you the strange fruit, even if it's just one, absolutely not!" ā
"Huh?"
Swift's face changed, and at the same time as his anger surged, he opened his mouth and shouted, "You actually rejected me? ā
"That's right."
General George nodded and said in a gloomy tone, "I refuse." ā
"I think you should understand your situation first, we are the most powerful country in the world, do you want to represent the whole of Australia and go to war with us in the United States?"
Swift shouted angrily.
"Don't dare."
General George snorted coldly and said: "But I still refuse, we Australia will never take the initiative to start a war with any country, of course, if someone takes the initiative to bully the door, our Australian soldiers will definitely not sit still!" ā
As soon as these words came out.
Swift's eyes narrowed.
In his opinion, he who has already held the lifeblood of Australia in his hands, should be able to get two strange fruits very lightly.
But the result was completely different from what he imagined.
It made him feel angry.
That feeling.
It's like a subordinate brother who openly contradicts and provokes himself.
Swift even felt humiliated.
Being rejected and provoked by a weak person made him very unhappy.
But.
All he could do was be unhappy.
"Knock Knock Knock ......"
Suddenly, just when the atmosphere was unusually awkward and deadlocked, there was a knock on the door.
"Come in."
George opened his mouth.
"Report."
The door was pushed open, and a soldier stood at the door, looked at General George in the conference room, and opened his mouth to say: "General, I have received news from the diplomatic department, and countries around the world have called one after another, mentioning yƬ to work with us to develop strange fruits. ā
"Refuse."
Without thinking about it, General George waved his hand and immediately opened his mouth and said: "Immediately notify the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and refuse the requests of all countries!" ā
"Yes."
The soldier answered, turning to leave.
in the conference room.
Hearing General George's conversation with the soldiers, Swift's heart went cold.
He knows it well.
General George was so resolute in order to tell him that he should not be delusional, that he would not hand over the strange fruit to the United States under any circumstances.
With that in mind.
Swift took a deep breath, glanced angrily at General George, and stepped out.
Walking to the door of the conference room, he paused deliberately and said, "You will regret it!" ā
Just leave.
"Hmph."
General George snorted coldly and muttered, "After I keep the strange fruit, I want to see who will regret it!" ā
ā¦ā¦
The other side.
Countries around the world have received replies from Australia's diplomatic department.
All of them, all of them are rejected.
There is no reason for this.
on this.
The top leaders of various countries did not express the slightest dissatisfaction.
Refuse?
Good.
Let's see who this miracle will end up into.
At the same time.
All countries in the world immediately began to arrange manpower, secretly dispatching together, aiming at the strange fruit.
Of course.
The United States is no exception.
Swift, who had already made two preparations, directly issued instructions to implement the second set of plans after the end of his conversation with General George and on the way out of the Australian military base.
At all costs.
Strange fruits, you have to get your hands on them.
ā¦ā¦
However.
Just when the countries of the world were busy because of the strange fruit, Eucommia, who had taken off his disguise, had just withdrawn from the jungle on the outskirts of Penrith City.
He wanted to dive into the jungle again and take pictures of the god fruit to inform everyone that the god wrap was not ripe yet.
But......
