"We're going to work together...... I would now like to invite the representative of the United Kingdom, Lieutenant Colonel Frøsen, to speak from the podium. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info"

In the face of endless boos and mockery, the mayor of Manila finally finished his speech, and few people heard what he said, but when he spoke, most people kept taunting him.

Lin Qing watched quietly from the audience, this Manila mayor is really thick-skinned, and his skills are also good, and he can dodge all kinds of attacks thrown from the air from time to time.

Although the citizens of Manila were not prepared with rotten eggs, rotten cabbage and other throwing weapons, the angry Filipinos still took out shoes, pens and even watches and mobile phones and threw them on the stage.

Hedra was accustomed to this kind of attack, and as he spoke, he took a light step, even if the opposition from the audience obscured his speech, he still faced it with a calm face.

Lin Qing secretly gave a thumbs up to this unknown name in his heart, this kind of cheekiness can be said to be his model.

After Hedra stepped down, a white man dressed in a British uniform walked up to the podium and waved to the still-agitated Filipino citizens below.

Filipinos don't buy lost things, maybe they have just lost them, or they simply don't want to lose them, and they are tired of scolding, so they suddenly all quiet down.

The whole port suddenly fell silent, there was no scolding, no applause, the atmosphere was very strange, and all eyes were fixed on the Englishman on the stage.

It's like a sudden silence in a noisy classroom, and the students staring at the new teacher, with all kinds of complicated eyes, curious, and unpretentious......

"Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and it is a pleasure to be here to meet you, I am Lieutenant Colonel Frosson from the British Empire,......"

"My government and your government have always agreed on opposing separatism, and our country and your country are in agreement, and our country insists that there is only one Philippines in the Philippines and Palawan is only a part of the Philippines......"

"The weapons that our country sold to your government this time include the most advanced main battle tanks, armored vehicles, ......"

“...... That's the end of my speech, thank you. ”

After Lieutenant Colonel Frosson finished speaking, the audience remembered the long-lasting applause, among which Frosson's sentence that there is only one Philippines in the Philippines and Palawan will always be just an island in the Philippines won the applause of most people.

Most of the people who come to this port to watch the ceremony are those who support the reunification of the Philippine government, and those who do not support or care about it will not come here at all.

Some Filipinos, whose emotions were stirred up, shouted loudly and loudly shouted Long live the friendship between the Philippines and the United Kingdom.

Lin Qing looked at the British lieutenant's speech coldly, obviously kicking his nose at the British lieutenant's words, the British didn't know how much money they had spent in this transaction, and they pretended to be righteous and Lingran, the 10,000-year-old-stirring stick was really not called in vain.

Filipinos around the harbor cheered heartily, but a different scene was seen in a lounge in the harbor not far away.

Interim President Coman now has an urge to kill the three Britons opposite, and it is the kind of killing that will solve his hatred.

Holding back the anger in his heart, Coman slowly spoke: "Ambassador George, the compensation you want is too high, and it is even more impossible to let the Philippines lease the port to you, this is not World War II, nor World War I, the colonial trick will no longer work!" ”

The Englishman on the opposite side didn't seem to see Coman's anger, and still had a faint smile.

After tidying up his appearance a little, he stretched out his hand with a very gentlemanly demeanor: "Mr. President, I think you must have made a mistake, we are not asking you to cede the land, but to lease your two ports and garrison us, and when you recover Palawan in the future, we will naturally return the port!" We ......"

"It can't be!" Before George could finish his sentence, he was rudely interrupted by Koeman.

Jokes aside, the Philippines did not become independent from the United States until after World War II, and now if the port is leased to the British, without anyone else's help, the Filipinos will immediately tear him to pieces.

In fact, Koeman really misunderstood the meaning of the British, Britain is no longer the empire on which the sun never sets, and there is no invincible Royal Navy.

The British just wanted to lease a port in the Philippines and use it as a bridgehead to attack Palawan, and the British did not want to be the culprit and help the Filipinos, but the Scottish independence incident was already so big that it was almost about to succeed.

Therefore, the British had to be in a hurry, and only by destroying Palawan could they have a deterrent effect.

The lease of the port was only because the Philippine port was too dilapidated to play any role at all, and the British were unwilling to build a port for the British for no reason, so they put forward the idea of rental.

It's just that the British didn't expect that the Filipinos would be so excited that they didn't give them any reason to talk at all.

You must know that the ports that are now leased all over the world, such as Panama, the port of Hamburg in Germany

It was given to the Czechs, and these are still examples, and after the lease to the British, the British only used it for ten years, and in ten years a brand new port will be the Philippines' own.

George spread his hands helplessly, lowered his head and discussed with the people next to him, the three of them nodded at the same time, and George spoke again: "Okay, we can get rid of this, but we don't feel that there is any room for bargaining on the issue of compensation!" ”

"Mr. George, £13 million, this price is clearly extortion, we will definitely not agree to this price!"

Coman's face is much better now, and the British's request just now is completely the rhythm of letting him, the interim president, step down, and seeing that the British have backed down, Koeman's face looks a little better.

George looked at Koman, and he probably made up his mind in his heart, still with a smile on his face: "Mr. President, I don't think the price of thirteen million pounds is expensive, every pilot is a precious and scarce resource for every country." ”

"You should know that this time the F16 fighters for your country are all our ace pilots, each of them is an experienced veteran, and the loss of one person is the loss of the British Empire, and their compensation is not very high!"

"No, it's too high, I think ....."

“...... We will not make any concessions on the price unless you agree to lease the port......"

"This is impossible, we will not lease any port, and we will not be able to pay so much compensation, we think that a total of 8 million US dollars in compensation is enough to show our sincerity, I hope your country can consider it carefully, this price is the highest price that our Philippine government can come up with!"

The two sides quarreled more and more fiercely, almost knocking over the roof, the British bit 13 million pounds and did not retreat, while the Filipinos were only willing to pay 8 million US dollars, and the rest did not have a point, the price gap was a bit large, and the two sides could not reach a consensus at all.
