Ambassador Li Jingfa returned to Washington with the mission assigned by Zhang Wei, thinking about how to communicate with the US government and achieve the goals of the empire.

From the moment I entered the United States, I felt that the depression on this side of the United States was full of chaotic tents, unkempt people, depressed men, women with sad faces, children with yellow faces and thin muscles, and homeless people with no clothes; Corresponding to this is the busy rail traffic, crowded docks, and the wealthy who want to leave the United States in a hurry.

There are long queues in front of European embassies, and Americans with a little bit of assets or status want to leave here, return to Europe, return to the bosom of their homeland, and not continue to be afraid here.

The founding of the United States is too short, it has no history of its own, it has not formed the concept of the motherland, and its citizens come from all over the world with different dreams; When the U.S. economy was developing rapidly, everyone was still willing to pan for gold here, but when the U.S. encountered difficulties and was invaded, not many people were willing to dedicate their strength to the country.

Escaping here is the dream of all Americans, but the harsh immigration conditions restrict most people from leaving here.

No country wants to carry a heavy burden, even if these people are the descendants of its own people, only those scientists, doctors, senior technicians and other skilled elders, or those who have a large amount of gold and silver or paper money to immigrate to the target country are the popular group.

All countries no longer accept the dollar, making the dollar a waste of paper, and most of the rich Americans in the past, especially those who migrated from the Midwest, are now mostly destitute and dependent on state handouts to survive; People have returned to the most primitive barter, or using pounds, marks, summer dollars, etc. as the medium of exchange, or denominated and traded in gold and silver.

When they couldn't even eat, joining the army became the first choice of the poor.

From an army of less than 100,000 people to an army of nearly 2 million, the US government has spent a lot, but it is still difficult to meet the needs, from rifles, bullets, and uniforms to artillery and artillery shells.

Relying on the wealth that was plundered, he bought a large amount of grain from the Empire, which was doubled, and it was still the cheapest grain that the United States could buy.

If we want to buy food that can meet the needs of tens of millions of people in a short period of time, it is difficult to meet the needs of the world's surplus food, and it is easy to stir up international grain prices to the sky.

Fortunately, the Xia Empire had already had a way to deal with it, and set up reserve grain depots in the major canal wharves and railway hubs on the border with the United States, stored a large amount of grain, and began to dump it in the United States.

While exchanging a large amount of real money for the empire, it saved the lives of a large number of American people, making Americans love and hate the Xia Empire, but it is still hate-based, because it is the Xia Empire's war of aggression that causes them to be displaced.

While Ambassador Li Jingfa was still pondering, US Secretary of State Robert Bacon came to his door.

The U.S. government must have asked for the Empire, otherwise it would not have been necessary for the Secretary of State to come to the door in person.

This is a good opportunity for Ambassador Li Jingfa, as long as he seizes the initiative in negotiations, he can strive for greater interests for the empire.

"Haha, Your Excellency, welcome!"

"It's a pleasure to meet you, Your Excellency, Ambassador!"

Ambassador Li Jingfa warmly invited Robert Bacon into the small conference room of the embassy, and the waiter served two cups of freshly ground coffee to the two.

"Washington is such a beautiful place to live and work in a beautiful climate."

"Thank you Ambassador for the great compliment, Washington is indeed a great place, especially this season, which is the most comfortable time of the year in Washington."

"Shangjing, the capital of the empire, is good for everything, but the temperature is high in summer, and after living in Washington for a few years, I have gradually become fond of this city, and I really hope to live here forever."

Ambassador Li Jingfa and Robert Bacon started chatting in English, at this time it was pure nonsense, killing time, neither of them wanted to talk about the subject first, and whoever brought it up first meant that he would lose the initiative in the negotiations.

After chatting for half an hour, Robert Bacon could not bear to be upset, and finally mustered up the courage to propose to Ambassador Li Jingfa: "Your Excellency, the United States is now facing great difficulties, and tens of millions of Americans are suffering from hunger and cold every day, and they urgently need the help of the Xia Empire. “

"The Xia Empire is a peace-loving country, and has always maintained a good friendship with your country, and is very willing to help friends in difficulty, I wonder how Your Excellency the Secretary of State hopes the empire to help?"

Robert Bacon thought to himself, fart friendship, the Xia Empire's invasion of the United States has not been a year, and the difficulties of the United States are all caused by the Xia Empire, and now the United States has no friendship with the Xia Empire except hatred; However, he knew that now the United States was asking for help from the Xia Empire, and it could not do without the help of the Xia Empire for the time being; He also knows that there is no free lunch in the world, and there is no eternal hatred between countries, only eternal interests.

The Xia Empire can sell the products needed by the United States at a reasonable price, which is the greatest support for the United States, and now the United States lacks real money, and the number of materials required is huge, and at present it can only exchange land for materials, which is very happy to accept by the Xia Empire, thinking that at the beginning, the Xia Empire used 5 advanced battleships to exchange a large amount of land from the British.

What's more, the amount of supplies needed by the United States is too large to be met by any other country.

So, Robert Bacon said straight to the point: "The U.S. government wants to sell the existing 13 states to the Xia Empire, please bid?" “

Ambassador Li Jingfa was ecstatic in his heart, it turned out that this was the purpose of the US Secretary of State's visit to him, if there was no need for war, it would be of great significance to the empire to be able to peacefully buy the remaining 13 states of the United States, but he didn't know what the purpose of the Americans was, so he asked: "If the Xia Empire buys the land of your country, where will the people of your country go?" “

"This is still in the stage of secrecy, and it is inconvenient to disclose it, but we will withdraw all the people, and transfer the land to your country within 2 years, and ensure that the infrastructure is in good condition to your country, you know, the East Coast is the essence of the development of the United States for hundreds of years, but these infrastructures are worth a lot of money; In addition, the cost of relocation for tens of millions of people is very huge, and I hope that your country will not bid too low. Robert Bacon said.

I don't know how much appetite the United States has, Ambassador Li Jingfa didn't dare to bid, besides, this is beyond his authority as an ambassador, but this does not prevent him from touching the psychological price of the Americans first, so he asked: "The east coast of your country has indeed developed well, from the colonial period to the present, it does have a history of several hundred years, but the Xia Empire has not been established for a long time, and the family background is still very thin, I don't know what price your country wants to trade, if it is too high, the empire cannot afford it." “

Seeing that Ambassador Li Jingfa kicked the ball back, at this time it was necessary to reach an agreement with the Xia Empire as soon as possible to obtain sufficient materials for immigration, the United States did not have time to wait, the Chinese often said that the sky was asking for a price to sit on the ground and pay back, so, ruthlessly, Robert Bacon said: "Exempt the United States from all the compensation and pay 1.3 billion Xia Yuan as the purchase price, this is the bottom line of the United States." “

"Haha, Your Excellency the Secretary of State said that it was a joke, now that the Xia Empire has no more than 2 billion yuan of Xia Yuan in circulation, how can you pay 1.3 billion Xia Yuan to your country?"

"100 million summer dollars to buy a state in the United States, it is already very cheap, not to mention fixed assets, but the land is priceless, I hope your country can take this transaction seriously." Robert Bacon said patiently.

Besides, if the United States wants to sell these lands after relocation, no other country must dare to buy them except the Empire, and the Americans must sell them to the Empire at the lowest price, at a symbolic price, so he said: "If it weren't for the sake of the friendship with your country for many years, would it still need 100 million yuan in military spending for the Empire to acquire the 13 states of the United States?" “

Robert Bacon's teeth itched with hatred in his heart, but he still said calmly on the surface: "Now the United States has tens of millions of people and more than 2 million troops, and it has been reborn, and it is no longer the mud-legged giant of the past." “

Ambassador Li Jingfa joked: "Haha, Your Excellency the Secretary of State said that it is a joke, in terms of the current situation of your country's army, it is already very good to be able to share a rifle between two people, and such an army, no matter how many people there are, can it be the opponent of the Xia Imperial Army?" I just don't say it, you should know it in your heart. Therefore, I hope that you can come up with a reasonable price that is acceptable to the Empire, so that it will be beneficial to both parties, and this matter must be approved by His Majesty the Emperor. “

Robert Bacon felt that Li Jingfa's words were an insult to the American people, so he retorted: "The United States has tens of millions of outstanding sons and daughters who are willing to sacrifice their lives for the motherland at any time, and even if your country occupies the United States, it will not gain any benefits, and it will be a complete lose-lose situation." “

Ambassador Li Jingfa continued to joke: "Haha, when the American people say they are patriotic, the people of the world will laugh; As soon as the American people talk about the motherland, God laughs. “

Robert Bacon's face turned red with anger, and he pointed at Ambassador Li Jingfa very impolitely and said: "You, you, you are an insult to the American people, and you must apologize to the American people." “

Now Ambassador Li Jingfa has completely grasped the initiative in the negotiations, the United States wants to relocate, the only goal is South America, the distance from here is far away, even the sea route needs to walk for half a month, the need for a huge fleet, sufficient logistics support, to accomplish this goal, the United States cannot do without the support of the Xia Empire, but the empire cannot be the big wrong.

So, Ambassador Li Jingfa smiled and said: "Your Excellency, Secretary of State, I was joking just now, now let's talk about business, I hope you can quote a reasonable price, I can report to His Majesty the Emperor, if the price is too high, it is estimated that the transaction will fail." “

Robert Bacon knew that it was not the time to quarrel with the Xia Empire, and he couldn't care about Li Jingfa's attitude, which made him truly understand the undignified meaning of the diplomacy of weak countries; He also felt that the price quoted just now was too high, but he had a request from the Xia Empire, and he didn't have the initiative to negotiate, which was really difficult, but he was also an old fritter in the diplomatic world, so he asked rhetorically: "Then how much should the opinion of His Excellency the Ambassador be reasonable?"
