"There are too many temptations on this shijie, and the person who can control his desires is the real success. Power and money are at the commander's fingertips, but since ancient times, heroes have been sad to pass the beauty level, and beauty needs to be overcome by the commander himself. In order not to let the commander lose himself in the future, and to be able to stay awake at all times, Natasha has been working hard for this. ”

This is Natasha's explanation, when Li Lan saw the increase in conquest by 10%, he chose to believe.

"Is it because of Lin Meiqi's relationship?"

"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. The ones I just came in to talk about are not shaking the commander, how to deal with Lin Meiqi, the commander needs to judge for himself. ”

"Someday, you'll be completely mine." After Li Lan finished speaking, he didn't bother with Natasha, and walked directly onto the elevator to the console.

As soon as he came in, Li Lan asked his assistant with anger, "Assistant, what's going on?" ”

"This matter, the assistant did not know in advance, every personnel recruited by the base, their character and actions are according to their nature, in terms of character, the base has no ability to shape, can only give memories, and other aspects are born and natural."

After listening to the assistant's words, Li Lan just left quietly without saying a word.

Two hours later, in the office building built in Bagua City, Li Lan, who had recovered, met with the Russians.

This time, several Russians came, and there was only one one who was really in charge, and he was the only one who came to Binggogua City. After receiving Farah's notice. Under the arrangement of the hotel, after a nearly three-hour trip. came to Bagua City.

"Sir, this is a distinguished guest from Russia." As soon as Farah entered. He explained to Li Lan.

"Mr. Li, I am glad that you have accepted my request to meet me, and please allow me to introduce myself. Ivan. Ivanovich, you can call me Norwich. As soon as Farah's words fell, Ivanovic stepped forward and introduced himself in Mandarin.

Ivanovich lowered his posture very low, and coupled with his fluent Chinese, Li Lan's first impression was quite good.

"Mr. Norwich. I'm also very happy to be able to meet you here. Li Lan naturally wouldn't stretch out his hand to slap the smiling person, others politely showed their friendship, so he couldn't be rude.

With a slight clasp of their hands, they let go, and Farah left on his own, closing the door to the reception room.

"Mr. Li was able to break into such a big family business, in the words of your country, that is, he is young and promising! At such an age, it is really admirable. ”

After the two took their seats, Norwich complimented him.

looked at the big Russian man with thick eyebrows and big eyes and a full beard in front of him. Listening to his mouthful of Mandarin again, especially those words and phrases of praise, Li Lan had some guesses in his heart about this person's intentions. However, he was not in the mood to talk to this person about this useless thing here. It's a straightforward one-knife straight in.

"I don't know, what you're here for."

"Before I explain my intentions, allow me to identify myself. The trip came to Somalia. On behalf of the will of the Supreme Leader of Russia, I have come to help Mr. Lee. To show our sincerity. Our ships at the port of Bossaso and those on the road have a total of more than one million tons of refined raw ore. From now on, everything that has not yet arrived is yours. In the future, there will be a lot of refining raw ore and various machinery and equipment to support Mr. Lee. And it's all free! After Ivanovich finished speaking, he took out a letter from his pocket, handed it to Li Lan, and said: "This is a handwritten letter from the president of our country to Mr. ”

Taking the envelope, Li Lan didn't open it in a hurry, but said: "I have always believed that there is no free lunch on this shijie, and what you get is what you have to pay, so what do you need me to do?" ”

"These gifts are nothing at all, not to mention millions of tons of refined ore, even if it is tens of millions of tons, hundreds of millions of tons, for us, it is completely incomparable to your friendship. Even if the industrial equipment and machine tools are sent later, you don't have to pay anything at all, as long as we can build a friendship, these things are gifts. Ivanovich said with a smile on his face.

"What does this friendship represent?" Li Lan said.

"Friendship means mutual aid." Ivanovich said.

"Mutual aid, since it is mutual aid, it is a matter of both sides, but I don't know, what can I help your country?" Li Lan asked.

"Your greatest help to us is to be good at haute here, and if you have the opportunity, we also hope that you can exert a stronger influence." Ivanovich said succinctly.

Hearing Ivanovich's words, a trace of wonder flashed in Li Lan's heart, is Russia's purpose so simple?

"If that's all there is to it, then I won't let down all the people who care about me."

"Influence is built on strength, and our leader wants you to be stronger as soon as possible, just like the army that surprised all Shijie that night. When you build up the navy and air force one day, the friendship between us will be stronger. Ivanovich said.

"A century-old navy is not something that can be resolved with a single sentence, and besides, can it be expected that in such a place, it is possible to build a navy and air force? I don't have that much ambition and strength yet. Li Lan is already very smooth when she talks about this kind of thing now.

"You don't need to worry about this, with the support of Russia and China, it's only a matter of time. This time, at most, is not more than ten years. Ivanovich said.

"In order to avoid indifferent speculation, let's talk about the real purpose of your country." The better the other party said, the more interested Li Lan became, after all, this is not China, and he is not a Russian, in the past few years, Putin has been ambitious to strengthen Russia, and it is impossible to give him gifts for no reason. China can invest in him, but there is no reason for Russia to rush to support him. is still so generous, Mao Zike has never done a loss-making transaction.

Hearing Li Lan's words, Ivanovich did not hesitate and said: "This kind of thing is not a secret, NATO has joined forces to compress our strategic space step by step, and we need to break such a strategic blockade." Whether it's Syria, or Iran, or you. As a matter of fact, we are the same as yours, both of which are aimed at expanding strategic space or creating trouble for the strategic encirclement of the United States as much as possible. ”

"I trust your explanation, but I also believe that it's not the point." Li Lan did not believe Ivanovich's words, indeed, this is most likely Russia's purpose, but it can only be regarded as one of them.

Ivanovic's face did not change in the slightest, he still smiled as always, and said: "It is true that we still have some purposes, but with the current strength of Your Excellency, we can't help us at all." ”

"Since you don't say it, then I can only say I'm sorry, I can't accept the gifts you just said, but I appreciate the friendship of Russia." Now Li Lan can only retreat as advance.

"Friendship is built on mutual trust, and since you are so careful, I will make it clear. Actually, it's not a big deal, we just hope that you can give us a promise that in the next five years, you will allow us to lease a piece of land along the coast of no less than 50 square kilometers here for the construction of a military port and the mooring of our naval vessels. And the contract for the military port cannot be less than 15 years after the first signing. And during this time, when the international situation has eased, we will also do our best to support you in establishing a sovereign state. And when your sovereign state is established, it is time for you to fulfill your promises.

However, during this time, we can only give you some non-military assistance, and in terms of military weapons, we will also try our best to give you Jishu support. ”

After listening to Ivanovic's words, a trace of anger flashed in Li Lan's heart, but this anger quickly dissipated and did not show it on his face. Although he does not have much affection for Russia now, in the past year or two he has been indispensable to the help of the Russians.

"Whether the pledge is in writing or orally." Li Lan weighed it in his heart and said.

"Naturally, an agreement of intent is needed, and it's not a trivial matter after all. We are also taking a big risk to support you. Of course, this contract is a secret contract, and only the two of us know about it. Ivanovich said.

"I need to think about this matter and give you an answer in the afternoon." In fact, Li Lan already has the intention of agreeing, because he only needs two years now, and in these two years, if he has the support of Russia, then his development will be much smoother. As for the matter of the military port, Li Lan had already made a decision in his heart, and how could he allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch. As for the contract, it was meant to be torn apart, not to mention a secret contract.

"It's okay, I'll be patient." Ivanovich said.

"I've heard before that you're going to buy our Rhino main battle tanks, and that's true or an excuse." Li Lan is also very interested in this issue, and if Russia really wants to buy it, then he really wants to buy more.

"This is naturally true, and the performance of your Rhino tank is obvious to all. This time, I came here in the hope of buying a batch of tanks to go back. Ivanovic said naturally.

"The strength of your country's armored forces is first-class, both in terms of quantity and quality, and the T-90 and derivative models produced in your country are already one of the advanced and leading tanks in Shijie, I am curious about what point you fancy about my rhinoceros tank."
