Chapter 593: Playing scoundrels is not qualified enough
The black car quietly stopped in front of a small Chinese-style western-style building, Su Tong and the little girl got out of the car and walked inside, and as soon as they entered the gate, they saw Jiang Baili's adjutant, Colonel Li Hongkun, standing at the door. After seeing Su Tong and the little girl get out of the car, he immediately walked over and said, "President, Minister Jiang and Premier Li have been waiting for you inside for a while." β
Looking at the inadvertent hint of anxiety on the corner of Adjutant Li's eyebrows, Su Tong knew that something must have happened.
"Adjutant Li, what's so urgent?" Su Tong asked a little strangely.
Li Hongkun shook his head, "I don't know, Minister Jiang hurried to your house after receiving a telegram just now, and is now waiting for you inside?" β
"Forget it, let's go in and talk about it." After Su Tong finished speaking, he walked in quickly.
When Su Tong and the little girl entered the living room, they saw Jiang Baili and Li Zongren sitting on the coffee table in the living room sipping kung fu tea, and after seeing Su Tong and the little girl holding hands with each other and coming in, Jiang Baili laughed and said: "No wonder I said that I couldn't see you kid after work, it turned out that I went on a date with the little girl, so I and Delin were easy to find for a while." β
Although the affairs of Chief Su and the little girl are very hidden, where can they hide the eyes of Jiang Baili and Li Zongren, these old rivers and lakes?
Su Tong just smiled brightly and didn't speak, he also knew the truth that if you talk too much, you will lose, and in this case, it is the wisest choice to keep your mouth shut.
Li Zongren on the side has always been a generous elder, and he smiled and relieved Su Tong and said: "People are not romantic, Duke Ning, but you are too worried." β
Jiang Baili also knew that it was useless to say more, so he just "hummed" lightly and stopped talking.
Su Tong sat down on the sofa and asked with a smile: "What is it that is worth the two of you busy people to come to my house at noon to eat?" β
As soon as Su Tong's words came out, even Li Zongren smiled and sighed lightly, pointed to a telegram on the table and said, "You see, the Vietnamese have come out again, just now we received a call from Ho Chi Minh, asking us to increase our financial and food aid to them and asking us to pay 100 million gold yuan in rent every year, otherwise they will re-discuss the issue of our Cam Ranh Bay lease." β
"Why did the Vietnamese suddenly have such the audacity to go back on the agreement that had been signed, and what forces were supporting them?" After so many years of experience, Su Tong now looks at the problem and always goes straight to the core of the problem.
Jiang Baili nodded appreciatively, "After our investigation, a few days ago, Ho Chi Minh had frequent contact with a delegation of Soviet Russians who came to Saigon to invest, and according to the analysis of our intelligence officers, this Soviet Russian delegation is likely to be the mastermind behind this incident." β
"Grass, it's Soviet Russians again," Su Tong punched on the sofa in annoyance, "Why is this old boy from Georgia always haunting us." β
Li Zongren said: "It may be that the recent increase of our troops in Mongolia has aroused his alarm, and now Soviet Russia has not only added an army group near Lake Baikal, but is also fighting with Vietnam. According to the insider report, the Vietnamese government intends to compensate us for the liquidated damages of the 1 billion gold yuan bills and instead sublease Cam Ranh Bay to the Russians. β
"Hehe, I didn't expect those hairy monkeys to be so rich, and they could come up with such a huge amount of liquidated damages to us" Su Tong laughed instead of anger after hearing this, and the corners of his eyes jumped a few times before he said gloomily: "It seems that this money is not from those Vietnamese monkeys, right?" β
"That's," Li Zongren continued: "If it weren't for Lao Maozi's financial support behind him, he wouldn't have been able to make up the money for killing those Vietnamese, and it seems that Lao Maozi is also worried about Cam Ranh Bay." β
Jiang Baili's expression was also ugly, "It turns out that when we signed the agreement with the Vietnamese, we saw that they couldn't come up with such a huge amount of money to write such a huge amount of money as a billion gold yuan coupons, but now that they suddenly have the support of the Soviet Russians, I'm afraid things will not be easy, if they really come out with a billion gold yuan coupons, do we really want to return Cam Ranh Bay to them?" β
"Hmph, they want to be beautiful" Su Tong sneered: "If you want Cam Ranh Bay, it's not impossible, Degong, if the Vietnamese really hand over the billion gold yuan coupons, you might as well accept the money, and then tell them that the billion is just a year's liquidated damages, if you want us to return Cam Ranh Bay, then hand over the liquidated damages for a hundred years, one billion a year is one hundred hundred hundred years, when the Vietnamese hand over the 100 billion yuan, we will return Cam Ranh Bay to them." β
"What? 100 billion gold yuan coupons? The people in the room were all thundered, and Li Zongren opened his mouth wide and said: "Even if you sell all the Vietnamese a hundred times, you can't make up 100 billion." β
What was the concept of the 100 billion gold yuan coupon in 1940? In 1940, the world's GDP was $800 billion, the United States was more than $200 billion, accounting for 30 percent of the world's GDP, and Vietnam's GDP was less than $100 million.
"I just want to let the Vietnamese know the price of breaking the contract, isn't Lao Maozi rich, so let Lao Maozi help them pay it back." Su Tong said with a cruel smile.
"But aren't we playing tricks by doing so?" Jiang Baili shook his head, "When we signed the contract with the Vietnamese, we only said that the liquidated damages were one billion gold yuan, but Jianming, you suddenly said that it was one billion a year, so the credibility of our government will be completely lost." β
Su Tong smiled, turned his head and asked, "Gong Ning, when we signed the agreement with the Vietnamese, did we state whether it was one billion a year or a total of one billion in liquidated damages?" β
Jiang Baili shook his head, "It's not written." β
"Isn't that the end of it?" Su Tong spread his hands, "Anyway, this kind of thing is said by the public and the mother is reasonable, and the mother says that the mother is reasonable, what is going on now, aren't we left it to our final say?" It's just that our Chairman Hu is too naΓ―ve, does he really think that with the support of Lao Maozi, he can not take us seriously? I'm just going to teach him a lesson this time, they're not qualified to be scoundrels."
Government building in Saigon, the capital of Vietnam
Ho Chi Minh and senior officials of the newly formed government are in a meeting.
Ho Chi Minh's expression was a little excited, he looked at these high-ranking government officials sitting and said: "Comrades, now our big brother of Soviet Russia has sent people to help us, they are willing to help us get out of the control of the Huaxia people, take back our Cam Ranh Bay, and are also willing to help us pay the liquidated damages on the agreement." And their condition was that we should lease Cam Ranh Bay to them for fifty years, and the terms of rent would be better than that of the Chinese, and the Russians would be willing to pay us thirty million dollars a year in rent or arms and supplies of equal value. β
"Really? That's great. The officials attending the meeting became excited after hearing this, "Those vampires of the Chinese people just paid the materials of five infantry divisions to coax us to lease Cam Ranh Bay for a hundred years, and they also set the liquidated damages so high, one billion gold yuan coupons, this is obviously to compensate us to death, now it's okay, our big brother of Soviet Russia has extended a helping hand to us, and we don't have to look at the faces of the Chinese people anymore." β
Vietnamese Defense Minister Vo Nguyen Gia asked with a happy face: "Chairman Hu, last time the Chinese took away Liangshan and other places north of Hanoi, and now that we have this opportunity, should we take the opportunity to bring these places back as well?" β
Ho Chi Minh thought for a while and shook his head: "I don't think so, now our Cam Ranh Bay is still in the hands of the Huaxia people, and the matter has not yet been decided. After all, the meal has to be eaten in one bite and everything must be done in the same way, so you can't be too rushed. β
"Hmph, those Chinese people are too shameless, they just gave us the equipment of the five infantry divisions to lease Cam Ranh Bay for a hundred years, and even the north of Hanoi was rowed away. This time, we're going to take back what we've lost. The "crowd" in the conference room was "excited", and everyone was excited, as if they had foreseen that they would soon regain lost ground and build Vietnam into the third power in the world.
"Report a call from the Huaxia government" A Vietnamese officer in a grass-yellow military uniform walked in and handed a telegram to Ho Chi Minh, who was sitting in the first seat.
"Robbers, a group of bandits, robbers" Ho Chi Minh's face turned blue for a moment after reading the telegram, and he suddenly stood up and slapped the telegram on the table.
"Chairman Hu, what's wrong?" Everyone in the conference room hurriedly asked.
"See for yourselves." Ho Chi Minh was so angry that he couldn't go any further and left the telegram on the table.
Wu Yuanjia, who was anxious, grabbed the telegram and read it slowly, "The Huaxia government replied to the Vietnamese government's question about the lease of Cam Ranh Bay: Now that we have heard that the Vietnamese government has proposed to take back Cam Ranh Bay, our government is sympathetic to friendly countries and has promised to return Cam Ranh Bay to the Vietnamese government. However, the liquidated damages mentioned in the agreement cannot be reduced, and the liquidated damages of the 1 billion gold yuan coupons mentioned at the beginning are only the amount of one year, if the Vietnamese government wants to recover Cam Ranh Bay, please immediately transfer 100 billion gold yuan coupons to the Huaxia Northwest Bank, and the Huaxia government will immediately return Cam Ranh Bay to the Vietnamese government after receiving the money. β
A group of officials who were still talking about money just now were stunned after listening to the message read by Wu Yuanjia, and it was very appropriate to describe their current state as dumbfounded.
After a long time, Ho Chi Minh gritted his teeth and said: "Send a report to Moscow immediately, and we will expose this shameless behavior of the Chinese government to the big brother of Soviet Russia."
