Hull's face was indeed very bad.

Because that hand of the Chinese really makes them passive.

China is poor, China is being invaded, and Chinese people may lose their lives at any time under the iron heel of the Japanese invaders...... But they have not forgotten the people of the United States of America who once extended a helping hand to China and supported China's War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression! When Chinese people heard that the United States had been attacked by the Japanese, they immediately stretched out their arms, which were not strong, or even emaciated...... They donated more than $1 million to the United States of America.

That's not a lot of money. More than a million dollars. From a national point of view, the money is not even drizzle.

That's another huge amount of money. That's more than a million dollars. From the standpoint of ordinary Americans, this is a huge sum of money that can make people rise from hell to heaven in an instant. Although there are billionaires this year, people call the rich people the most "millionaires"! What does it mean that the Chinese actually took out so much money at once? It shows that the Chinese are really very affectionate towards the United States and very sympathetic to their suffering.

According to the FBI's investigation, the Chinese embassy is still operating in secret, and through newspapers and radio, it has pointed out to the American people how much more than one million dollars it is: in China, this money can arm at least ten divisions of troops! Although these troops may have only one old rifle per person, not even the smallest mortar, these ten divisions could defend the already shattered territory under the artillery of Japanese aircraft! In China, this money can help millions of refugees who have been uprooted by the war, without enough food and clothing; In China, this million dollars can build more than 100 small and medium-sized factories and solve the employment problem of tens of thousands of people; In China...... In short, the Chinese have poured out their hearts to the American people.

What Chinese would do this? Because of the friendship between China and the United States. Because many Americans have campaigned for China's war of resistance. Not to mention the American pastors and doctors who came forward to expose the bestiality of the Japanese army. Let's just talk about the founder of Time magazine, Henry Brown. Luce, along with his father, the veteran missionary Lu Siyi, a missionary in China for 15 years, who returned to the United States from 1912 until around 1930, served as the head of the Catholic University of China Foundation, collecting donations to send funds to Yenching University in Beiping, China, and Qilu University (also an American Missionary School) in Shandong.

Chinese keep these friends in mind!

The Chinese pay attention to the "grace of dripping water." Springs reciprocate"!

Although China is now very difficult and its enemies are getting stronger, the Chinese will never give in, nor will they sit idly by and ignore the suffering of their friends. Chinese are willing to extend their hands of friendship to the American people at any time and do their best to help every American people who can help.

The American people are moved!

No, if you don't move, you can't.

Look at the suffering of the Chinese. Look at the ...... Chinese are suffering right now But people can cut back on food and clothing at this time, preferring to be hungry and miserable. I would also like to express my condolences to the United States, which was attacked by Japan. And we will support you as much as you can. What a great sentiment this is?

Many newspapers, magazines, and radio stations, including Time magazine, have also analyzed the situation in the Pacific Rim, and these news media almost unanimously believe that it is precisely because of China's efforts to confront Japan over the past few years, and precisely because of those poor, backward, and Chinese people who may not even know a word and fight against the Japanese invaders without fear of sacrifice that the stability of the United States has been achieved. Otherwise, the Japanese would have dropped their bombs on American territory long ago. Even the Japanese may have invaded the US mainland directly. Because they were rigidly dragged by the Chinese. Forced to commit more than a million troops on the battlefield in China, the number of troops is already seriously insufficient. But if there are no Chinese, then the Japanese are known as the third maritime strength in the world. It is quite possible to throw these forces into North America, and not just two thousand airborne troops, as is the case now...... And if that's the case, then, congratulations to the United States, the western part of the United States is likely to fall completely at the moment when all three Pacific railroads are destroyed, the Panama Canal is damaged, and east-west traffic is severely affected. Because until now there have not been many regular troops in the United States, and the garrison in the west is even more pitiful. In the face of hundreds of thousands, if not more, of Japanese troops, the United States is almost defenseless. …… God bless America! There are Chinese in front of us.

These reports are somewhat sensational, and some overestimate China's role for the United States. But it is undeniable that many of these points are quite true.

And most importantly, the U.S. government has invariably become a negative lesson in these reports.

In the most difficult moment when China was invaded by Japan, the U.S. government ignored Japan's threat to the United States and still sold all kinds of military supplies to Japan, although these materials were sold at high prices; Before the Japanese launched their shameful sneak attack, the Chinese Government had repeatedly warned the United States to be careful of Japan and this already crazy country, but the US Government arrogantly ignored these warnings and insisted that Japan would not and would not dare to launch an attack on the United States......

Fortunately, the Chinese have not clearly expressed their pessimism about the situation in the Philippines, otherwise many Americans, especially the families of American soldiers in the Philippines, would have come out to demonstrate and petition the government. In that case, it will be more difficult for the U.S. government to keep Chinese troops out of its colonies.

But even that alone is enough to make the White House and Congress feel tricky.

The Chinese have donated millions of dollars under such difficult circumstances, so shouldn't the American people also express it? What's more, the Chinese are just loans. Besides, the government also took out 50 destroyers to Britain before, although it was about Lend-Lease, but that didn't mean it? According to rumors, British Prime Minister Winston Churchill jumped for joy after hearing that the United States was attacked by Japan, how can this performance compare with the Chinese? The benefits of the US government to the British are far greater than those of the Chinese, right? Instead of giving money to those who will only gloat. Why don't the Americans give their money to someone more trustworthy when they wish the Americans shed their blood and died for them? What's more, Germany did not attack the United States, so should the United States go to Japan first to retaliate? And lending money to the Chinese is one of the best ways to retaliate against Japan.

Although it is never the American people who speak the word in the United States, the people's backs will still affect the US government. This is also one of the reasons why the US government knows about these actions of the Daoist Chinese, but it cannot pull down its face with China...... It's hard to account to the American people.

They can't tell the American people that the Chinese take out this million, but they actually want to get it back from them a hundredfold, two hundredfold, right? People just take out a loan and have to pay it back! Not to mention the previous one. The British also benefited from the United States, and although they were also invaded, they didn't lose much of their country, right? Compared with the Chinese, the suffering of Britain is much smaller. But they heard about what happened to the United States, did they donate?

……

"We can't learn from the British. They have both industry and colonies all over the world. You have to pay for it. So Americans are willing to take out loans. But we are different, we are too poor, and if we want to take out a loan, we can only play the emotional card...... With an investment of one million, you have to get back a thousand times the reward. Yan Huiqing ignored the faces of Hull and the others, leaned into Song Ziwen's ear and whispered.

"A thousandfold?" Song Ziwen's face shook three times in succession. "Isn't your appetite a little too big? A thousand times a million, that's a billion dollars! ”

"It's estimated to be around three billion." Yan Huiqing's face was expressionless, "But this is only the minimum." ”

"Maniac. Are you fools when Americans? With so much money, it's enough to buy half of China. Song Ziwen gritted his teeth

"War is about money. Three billion for themselves. Compared to European countries, it can only be regarded as a fraction. Yan Huiqing sighed, "During World War I, Britain's total military investment alone was eight billion pounds, even according to the exchange rate before World War II, it was four billion dollars. That was more than 20 years ago, and most of the army had not yet been mechanized, let alone the consumption of air forces and armored units. And now, according to our calculations, up to now, Germany's military spending has reached more than 100 billion US dollars, Britain is not much closer, the Soviet Union has not officially entered the war, but only fought with the Japanese, military spending has exceeded 10 billion US dollars, Japan is the least, but after a few years of fighting, it has also invested 30 or 40 billion US dollars...... According to some data we have obtained, the United States' military spending last year exceeded $2 billion, and if it is attacked by Japan this year, its military spending will inevitably soar, and it is initially estimated that it will reach about $7 billion, and once it enters the war, this figure will increase again, and next year, it is expected that the US military spending will rise to between $20 billion and $30 billion. Once the United States enters the war, the scale of the war will be further expanded, and at that time, the military spending that Americans need to invest will also rise again, and it is expected that it may even be 60 billion a year at most, or even more than 80 billion yuan...... Of course, such a large sum of money cannot be spent by themselves, so the 3 billion we expected is not enough at all, and it can only be regarded as a drizzle for others at most. ”

"I don't care how much money you want to take from the Americans, I just want to ask: Why don't I know anything about this?" Song Ziwen said angrily.

"I was going to tell you, but did you listen?" Yan Huiqing glanced at him, "You have your own set, and you don't even take the chairman's words to heart...... Take out a $20 million loan first? You're so careful, you're embarrassed to say that you represent a country. ”

"You ......" Song Ziwen didn't expect Yan Huiqing to dare to despise himself like this, and almost broke out on the spot. However, fortunately, considering that there were Americans on the other side in time, he could not be embarrassed, so he temporarily suppressed it, and planned to go back to find trouble with Yan Huiqing again. However, no matter how much he suppressed it, his face still changed, and this fell into the hands of little Henry, who had been watching coldly. Morgenthau, the US Treasury Secretary, in his eyes, so, he spoke:

"Mr. Song......" (To be continued......
