On August 12, Yan Changxi sent a telegram from the United States that there was news from the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family. After several rounds of negotiations, the Australian government was willing to sell the islands of New Guinea and Starmania, but on extremely harsh terms.

Originally, the Australian government did not plan to sell these two large islands, but Stamania Island is better to say, after all, it is only a place where Australian prisoners are exiled, and more than half of the island's residents are the descendants of hooligan bandits, and the entire island is sparsely populated, and there are not many proven mineral resources, so if it is sold, it will be sold.

But New Guinea is different, it's an extremely large island. Its total area is equivalent to 1/10 of the area of the Australian mainland, equivalent to 2 Japan and 3 New Zealand, although the island is sparsely populated, the land is barren, and the economy is extremely underdeveloped, but whoever buys such a large island will also threaten the security of the Australian mainland.

However, things took a turn for the worse when the Australian government learned that the Morgan family had purchased it for a Chinese general, and that the general was Chen Feng, its attitude was somewhat relaxed. Australians are reluctant to sell their land to the Morgan family because the U.S. government stands behind the Morgan family. Once the land is sold to the Morgan family, it is tantamount to inviting the US government and military to the doorstep, which is not in Australia's interest.

More importantly, the United States has now occupied the Philippines, and the Philippines is not far from the island of New Guinea, and once New Guinea gets involved with the Americans, then the US warships and army will soon sail to the island of New Guinea, and the Australian government will still have a headache at that time. So no matter how big the stakes are, the deal still outweighs the losses!

But if the buyer is Chinese, then things are much easier, in the eyes of Australians, whether it is the navy or the army, China is very rubbish, selling the islands to them is not a wolf into the house, the Chinese navy has been lost, even if the buyer is a big warlord, his army is impossible to land in New Guinea, which is very in the interests of Australia.

The most important thing is that the Australian government knows that Chen Feng has money. Very rich. A penicillin production patent is a cash cow, such a person is a standard person who is stupid and has a lot of money, it is rare that he wants to buy an island, and the wronged man who is sent to the door does not slaughter him.

There are not many conditions in the Australian government. There are six in total: the first is that Chen Feng cannot establish a state on the islands of New Guinea and Tasmania at any time. After the deal was concluded, the two islands could only be regarded as the private domain of Chen Feng and his family. Second. The two islands are sold for $100,000 per square kilometre by total land area, from mountainous hills to plains and valleys. The two large islands together have a total area of about 820,000 square kilometers, so the total price of this land sale is $85 billion. Third, as a subsidiary condition, Chen Feng must sell the patent rights to the penicillin drug to Australia, which is willing to pay $50 billion. Fourth, after the deal is successful, Chen Feng must treat the residents of New Guinea and Tasmania well and ensure their food, clothing, shelter and transportation. Fifth, this deal is only a private transaction between Chen Feng and the Australian government, and has no relationship with China, and after the transaction is successful, Chen Feng and the Chen family cannot sell the two islands to any person or country for any reason. Sixth, the Chinese government could no longer station any troops on the islands, except for the Chen family's personal guards.

The conditions are indeed very harsh, not to mention that the price is far beyond Chen Feng's affordability, and it is very difficult for Chen Feng to sell the penicillin production patent to Australia. Selling patents and licensing patents are two different things, selling patents means that you sell all the patents to others, and only others can produce them in the future, and you are breaking the law if you are producing.

There is nothing wrong with never building a country, Chen Feng did not buy the island to establish a country, and once the land is founded, the land will be the state, once the regime has a storm, then the Chen family will lose a lot, or it is cost-effective as a private territory, and private territory is private property, which is in line with Chen Feng's idea.

It is also said that there are only three or four hundred thousand people on the island of New Guinea now, and when the deal is successful, there will definitely be some people returning to Australia or other countries, and there will be 300,000 people left on the island Chen Feng snickered. The same is true on Tasmania, where the population is even smaller, not even 50,000 people combined, and the total population of the whole of Australia at this time is only 7.2 million.

Moreover, the most lacking thing in the construction of the territory is the population, even if the Australian government does not mention it, Chen Feng will treat the residents of the island well, because they will be Chen Feng's subjects in the future.

Similarly, these two islands have nothing to do with the Chinese government, and of course Chen Feng will not sell them, but he knows the value of these two islands, and the income from tourism alone will make up for this money every year in the future.

It's a bit troublesome, his first purpose in buying the island is to train troops, just to garrison the army. He is still a general in China, so the army also belongs to China's national defense strength, and it is absolutely impossible not to let the garrison be stationed. But this can also be changed, didn't the Australian say that his private troops can be stationed on these two islands, and then he just needs to say that these troops are his private army.

Moreover, Australia's total strength is now only 90,000, of which 80,000 are militias of irregular troops, Chen Feng only needs to send an infantry division to destroy Australia's national defense strength, and presumably they will not say anything at that time.

It's just that this price is too expensive, thinking that when the United States bought Louisiana from France, it only cost $20 million, and when the United States bought Alaska with an area of up to 1.5 million square kilometers from Russia, it was only $7.2 million, including 2 million handling fees.

Although the climate of these two islands is better than that of Alaska, the price cannot soar by more than 11,000 times, and the combined islands of New Guinea and Staminia are only half the size of Alaska.

After thinking about it, Chen Feng decided to continue to let the Morgan family negotiate with the Australian government on his behalf, first, the price was too expensive, and the price in his heart was $5 billion for Stamania and $20 billion for New Guinea. In addition, he will not sell the patent for the production of penicillin to Australia, but he can authorize the Australian government to produce it. And to provide production technology and equipment, the price of course will not be 50 billion US dollars, half of it.

In addition, Chen Feng needs to make the Morgan family explain that he is a big warlord himself, so his troops will definitely be stationed in these two territories, but he can guarantee that any army he has stationed on the island has nothing to do with the Chinese government, and is his personal guard.

Compared with the Australian government, the New Zealand government is much more resolute, whether it is the South Island or the North Island, they will not sell, but they can sell some small islands off the coast to the Rockefeller family.

Some small islands, Chen Feng really can't look at them. Since it is not sold, forget it. Chen Feng immediately asked Yan Changxi to inform the Rockefeller family to stop negotiating with the New Zealand government, and he didn't have so much time to waste. Rather than arguing with where they are, it is better to talk to the colonial empires of the Netherlands or the United Kingdom, after all, these countries are big real estate owners. It's really not a thing to sell islands.

Soon. The Australian government, for its part, reacted. The price could indeed be lowered a little more. Under the premise that Chen Feng authorizes Australia to produce penicillin drugs and provides production technology and production equipment, paying Australia another $15 billion can own the islands of New Guinea and Tasmania, which is equivalent to selling them for $40 billion.

What a great idea for the Australian government. They will not be ignorant of the value of penicillin production technology, think about the US government now has to pay Chen Feng $1 billion a month, the Soviet government 500 million a month, plus several other countries, Chen Feng can get a huge profit of $3 billion a month on penicillin. $3 billion a month, that's $36 billion that year. Even if they can't compare with Chen Feng, a profit of $1 billion a month can still be guaranteed, which year is 12 billion.

This is a huge temptation of 12 billion yuan, and Australia's total trade volume is only 1 billion US dollars a year, and the profit is pitiful. Presumably, the Australian government is right on this point, otherwise it would not have talked to Chen Feng.

In Chen Feng's opinion, this price is still a bit outrageous, you must know that the most important of the two islands is the island of New Guinea, but this island did not belong to Australia 20 years ago, and it used to be a German colony. Australia only sent troops to occupy it during World War I, and in just 20 years, the Australian government wanted to sell it for a sky-high price of 40 billion.

Chen Feng knew that there would be no result if he continued to talk with the Australian government, so Chen Feng asked the Morgan family to temporarily stop negotiations with the Australian government, and World War II would break out in a few days, and Britain would declare war with Germany at that time. Australia, which has always regarded Britain as its home country, will definitely enter the war.

By that time, Australia will be more aware of the importance of penicillin, and the war costs money, but he knows that the Australian government's finances have not been very good. At that time, the Australian government, which is short of money and medicines, will definitely take the initiative to come to the door, and presumably the price will not be as outrageous as it is now. Even if the Australian government does not let go of its mouth at that time, Britain will put pressure on them, and it can be said that this time Chen Feng has eaten Australia.

The Morgan family's sudden suspension of negotiations made the Australian government still dissatisfied, isn't this playing with them, but they only verbally condemned Chen Feng, after all, their prices are too high, and it is understandable that people can't afford it. However, the Australian government did not relent, and according to the judgment of the government's think tank, the reason why Chen Feng, a Chinese general, paid a large price to buy the island at this time should be related to the war situation in China.

According to the news from the Chinese battlefield, Japan is concentrating a large number of Russian elite forces to besiege Wuhan, the temporary capital of China, and the war situation is developing towards a trend that is unfavorable to the Chinese government, so as a more famous general in China, Chen Feng should be looking for a way back for himself and his family, and once an irreparable defeat occurs, he will flee to this private territory with his family. Because it was separated by the American colonies and Australia, the Japanese army would not have come here.

Therefore, the Australian government judged that it was impossible for Chen Feng to give up the two islands, because this was his back road and his way of life. (To be continued......)
