Looking at the expectant eyes of Rama VI and others, Hu Wenqing put down the wine glass in his hand and said with a slightly wry smile-

"Your Majesty, didn't I say that since your country intends to join this alliance led by our country, then for the sake of the overall development of the alliance, my country should provide some assistance." As he spoke, he looked at Rama VI and the others with happy faces, and groaned for a while, and Hu Wenqing continued to speak. "It's just that there is no specific plan in the country at the moment, not to mention that I am just an ordinary envoy abroad, although it can be regarded as some status, but when such a thing has not yet come up with a charter in the country, how can I know about it..."

Hearing Hu Wenqing say this, Rama VI also knew very well that he was right.

Just like Hu Wenqing said, it is indeed difficult for him, a diplomat stationed abroad, to know what is going on in the absence of a certain situation in China. After all, it is impossible that the constitution of the cabinet has not yet come out, and he knows it first―――――― although an ambassador to a foreign country can be regarded as having some status, but there is still a long way to go before he can contact such a thing.

What's more, just like in the diplomatic map of Britain and the United States, China in the past could only be in a relatively secondary position. Isn't that the case in Thailand today? Although Thailand's status is obviously more important than in the past with the implementation of the plan, there is no doubt that Thailand has never been able to compare with countries like Britain and the United States in China's diplomatic map, and even the status of Hu Wenqing, the ambassador to Thailand, in the national government is slightly awkward.

Although in terms of grade, Hu Wenqing's status is indeed quite high. However, as an envoy abroad, he had almost no rights.

Of course, this does not mean that such foreign envoys really have no rights at all. For example, British and American diplomats in this era still have a very high status in some semi-colonial countries. At least in the past, diplomats from China and Thailand, Britain or other countries said a word, how many of these countries dared not listen carefully?

No matter how hard they speak, behind them there are still those very domineering countries.

So maybe they're nothing in their own country, but they're out there. That is the high emperor of the sky, and it is the time when you can take the opportunity to fake the tiger.

It is also because of this relationship that there are many diplomats in recent history who are not very willing to return to China. Even if it's a promotion. After all, outside, relying on the national strength of their country, they are almost the emperor of the soil, what can't they do? Who doesn't slap them?

Case. Then why do they have to go back to their own country? What about being an ordinary diplomat...

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

It stands to reason that Hu Wenqing should be the same, after all, China's national strength is not much inferior to that of Britain and France. Moreover, compared with Britain and France, China is closer to Thailand, so the obvious deterrent should be stronger.

But the problem is that China has adopted an attitude of co-optation towards Thailand.

Since it is a wooing, you can't show your domineering side, that will scare others. This, in turn, has affected domestic plans.

So as a matter of course. It is impossible for Hu Wenqing, the ambassador to Thailand, to come to the door often to trouble King Rama VI like the British and French ambassadors in the past. Of course. It is also for this reason that Rama VI has a sense of belonging to China and the current alliance.

After all, even if they know that their country's national strength is weak, this does not mean that Rama VI and them are really willing to be a dog.

Besides, even if you are a dog, you have to find a good owner, right?

Compared with the kind of owners who beat and scold at every turn, and even think about whether to slaughter and eat themselves, or those 'animal protection' people who almost treat dogs as their lives are more worth following, right? If you don't get it right, maybe you can turn over and become a landlord!

Compared with Britain and France, which always want to bully their own masters, China, although it is far inferior to those 'animal protection' or 'patriots' in later generations, is obviously more than a step stronger!

In this case, why should they choose a more promising master like Britain and France when China is indeed capable of protecting itself?

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

Everyone here knows very well that with Hu Wenqing's rights and status, it is indeed too difficult to expect him to understand some things in China. Therefore, they did not continue to question Hu Wenqing, but continued the banquet.

On the other hand, although there is no way to have the same authority in Thailand as the original Charles or the French ambassador, he has almost the same authority as the Emperor of Turkey or the Emperor Taishang. But Hu Wenqing didn't care much about it――――――Well, it's impossible to say that he doesn't care, after all, after seeing the majesty of those colonists, Hu Wenqing didn't think about how much better he would be if he could be like them.

But!

There's no way, even if Hu Wenqing wants to do this, he doesn't have such a right.

Because the order given to him at home was simple, that is, to let him win over the Thais as much as possible, especially those powerful people who were originally inclined to Britain and France. Let them see China's strength at the same time, but also see the goodwill from China.

At this time, if Hu Wenqing learns from Charles and them, if nothing happens, of course, it is the best, but if something happens, then even if he has a hundred heads, it is estimated that he will be beaten into a hornet's nest―――――― anyway, it will be enough to move a heavy machine gun when the time comes.

What's more, Hu Wenqing believes that if he really has so much, the country will definitely know.

Because of the Secret Service...

As the world's largest spy agency, the Secret Service has its own power in each country, but to a greater or lesser extent. However, in these areas of Thailand, the strength of the Special Affairs Bureau is relatively strong, after all, the people are similar in race, and the number of Chinese in Thailand is relatively large. These Chinese people have a natural affinity for China, so it is naturally easier to show up.

Even in Hu Wenqing's own embassy. I'm afraid there are also people who don't know how many people are agents of the Secret Service Bureau.

If Hu Wenqing really did something that violated domestic orders, I am afraid that it will not be long before China will learn the details. If you are lucky at that time. is recalled to China, and then there is no future forever.

But if you are unlucky, maybe Hu Wenqing's head will be taken by the people above and regarded as a gift to please the Thai government. From a certain point of view, Hu Wenqing prefers the second option...

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

It was almost as soon as Hu Wenqing was chatting and laughing with King Rama VI and other Thai government officials at the banquet.

In the far north of Iran, a long convoy. It is also speeding along the road on the plains.

The entire convoy consisted of more than thirty vehicles, including some ordinary cars and some military vehicles. For example, military off-road vehicles or trucks full of soldiers, etc.

The whole convoy continued to move forward along the road as fast as possible. Fortunately, the wind and sand are not very strong today, otherwise the soldiers in the off-road vehicles, especially the trucks, would have suffered.

But even so. The feeling of the wind blowing on your face is still not very pleasant.

"The view from the inside of the car window. Sure enough, it's not the same as usual..."Sitting in the carriage and looking at the scenery outside the window, Shable couldn't help but say with some emotion.

Unlike the rest of the carriage, Shabuel was very young―――――― of course, it could also be called young. I've been out on horseback for a while, but this is the first time I've sat in a car and watched the scenery go backwards...

"Yes," Sitting next to Shapur, the head of the delegation, Hassan, chuckled when he heard Shapur's words. But these Chinese-made cars are really good. The cars that I used to buy from the UK always broke down after a long run. And I can't run too fast every time, unlike this time, when I can run on the plains to my heart's content...", Hassan looked out the window again.

Unlike the young Shapur, Hassan has seen his own land countless times, but this time it is different, because he is sitting in a car and watching―――――― well, in fact, he has also tried similar actions, although cars are indeed quite rare in Iran, but in Tehran, this Iranian capital, it is not really impossible to see, it can only be said that it is really rare.

But these cars were bought when the car was just emerging, not to mention the performance, but the reliability is very poor, and there will always be a series of failures, especially when the car is at its highest.

It is also because of this relationship, although in the past Hassan was also driven by the driver, riding a car or something, but he always had to stop temporarily because of this or that failure without running far, no, like this time, although the Mercedes has traveled a long distance, but there are few breakdowns on the way.

This can't help but make Hassan feel the performance and reliability of these cars, and he has become more confident about this trip to China.

But if Hassan knows, in fact, the Chinese are also wondering why they have run so far, but the car still has not broken down, I am afraid that Hassan will look a little...

In fact, in order to ensure that the car does not have accidents on the way, the people in the team naturally do their best. But this kind of thing is not something that can be controlled by human beings, so they can only try their best to ensure that the car does not cause accidents, but if the car does have an accident, then there is nothing they can do.

Who would have thought that this time maybe God really helped, they have run such a long distance, but the car still hasn't had any accidents, it's really...

I'm glad...

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

This time, Hassan and the others took a car north, rather than choosing to take a more comfortable and perhaps faster ride. It was because they wanted to see for themselves the railway under construction and see how it was going―――――― the Iranian government naturally understood that the railway was built for Chinese, but after all, the railway was built on the territory of the Iranian government, in other words. Iranians also have a significant share of these rights.

What's more, before the construction of the railway, China and Iran had already negotiated, although the railway belonged to China. But there is also a stake in the Iranian government. In peacetime, the Iranian government also has the right to use the railway, and only in times of war does China have full rights to the railway, and allows the railway to transport troops into the Middle East or vice versa.

In this way, the Iranian government naturally attaches great importance to this railway, after all, even the whole of Iran may not have many railways. The reason why the British built so many railways in India. It's all because India itself has a lot of supplies, and it's worth it for the British, but is Iran worth it?

At least not in this period. After all, Iran doesn't have much of its own resources, all it has is oil, and even if it is, it is only an oil field at the moment.

And so it goes. In addition to the areas where the oil fields are opened, there are also refineries. It is not surprising that Iran has almost no railways in the whole of Iran―――――― given that the British had included the southern part of Iran in their sphere of influence purely to give India some more buffer zone.

As for the Iranians, the Iranians themselves are naturally willing to build railways for themselves, but the problem is that the Iranian government itself does not have such capabilities, so the problem comes.

It is also because of this relationship that the Iranian government, from top to bottom, almost regards this railway that crosses the whole of Iran as its own treasure. Now that the railway has been built into Iran, the Iranians naturally want to take a good look at the railway...

Even the Iranian government has mentioned yì. Of course, whether to borrow money from China and build a railway in Iran ―――――― of course. With Iran joining the Chinese-led alliance, the request has shifted from borrowing to asking for aid.

It's just that the Iranians themselves don't know whether China will be willing to give assistance, so they are not very confident, and on the other hand, although they have received a faint hint from the Iranian government, the national government has not yet received any reply.

――――――――――――――――――――――――――

In fact, Yan Shaozhi has no opinion on giving Iran some support and letting the Iranians build the railway.

This is not only because Iran is one of the earliest member countries of China, but also because Iran has value to invest in―――――― yes, Iran does not seem to have much to invest in, even the Iranians themselves.

But Yan Shao, the Ministry of Energy, and even the upper echelons of the Communist government are well aware of the fact that there are priceless treasures buried beneath Iranian soil, and if their existence is known, these treasures may even lead to war.

It is also for this reason that Iran has full value for Yan Shao's investment.

After all, only if more railways are built, can Iran's economy be developed, and at the same time, if more railways are built, Iran's own oil resources can be better transported out of Iran―――――― why should Britain build so many railways in India? Isn't that what it is for? Of course, the same is true of Yan Shao now!

And this kind of investment is as early as possible, after all, Iran's oil resources have not yet been realized in large quantities, and if you invest at this time, then the Iranians will inevitably think of Yan Shao and China's good. Although no one knows how long this kind of gratitude will be prevalent in Iran, it is better to last as long as it lasts.

But if you start investing in oil in Iran, then even if you invest a huge amount of money later, Iranians will only think that you are here for oil―――――― although this is the case, it is probably impossible to buy people's hearts.

As for why Yan Shao didn't agree immediately, but wanted to delay it...

Man is always greedy and insufficiency, and if his requirements are easily fulfilled, then there is no doubt that soon he will begin to think of other requirements. In the end, you are annoyed, and conversely, if you don't say yes once, he may hold a grudge because he has been a little embarrassed by your past satisfaction...

But if you take a shelf, then the other party will know how difficult these things are, and they will naturally not always think about getting something for nothing in the future.

Of course, such things also have to be divided into times, at least when the other party is in urgent need, it is better to quickly take out the things. Because if you take a shelf at this time, it will attract dissatisfaction. However, you still have to pretend to be embarrassed, because only then will the other party know how difficult you are in this matter.

The same is true now, if Yan Shao directly agrees as soon as the Iranians speak, then the Iranians will naturally be grateful, but they will also feel that they are very important, and the next requirements may be endless, and when the time comes, will you agree? Or not?

If you agree, you can buy people's hearts, but the Iranians will probably want more, if that's the case, with China's current national strength, it can certainly support it, but what should other countries do? There will never be only three countries in the huge China Alliance: China, Iran, and Thailand, and there will be many fake allies in the future. If they do not give the same treatment, these countries will probably be dissatisfied with China's partiality.

But if you are all satisfied, unless all the oil fields in the Middle East are opened, even if you empty China's treasury, I am afraid that it will not be able to meet so much demand... (To be continued!)
