Chapter 464: Just a Joke (Supplement 4)
Carter was afraid to spend money.
In Carter's eyes, war is terrible, it kills a large number of people, and at the same time, it consumes a lot of money.
Weapons and ammunition, which is not money? How much did the United States spend on the Vietnam War and what benefits did it get in the end?
If nothing else, how much does it cost to transport your own armored division to Hokkaido?
If you go there, you have to build a new station, and how much will it cost? When the soldier passes, how much is the additional subsidy?
Carter didn't want to spend money, in his eyes, the smoke of gunpowder in Hokkaido had passed, and the Soviets could really provoke a world war?
Besides, in case of a war, isn't there still the army of the island country there? Let the front-line island army be cannon fodder, that is the best.
It is better than the death of American soldiers, after all, the pensions for the dead in war will become astronomical, and the treasury will be completely empty.
Carter did not agree.
Looking at Carter's appearance, although Camelot was in a hurry, there was no other way.
"Mr. President, do you want our CIA to secretly protect those two Soviet workers?"
Hearing the words of his CIA director, Carter couldn't help but laugh, and laughed loudly: "Turner, you made me hear one of the funniest jokes, you say, you want to listen to that Nathan's fool and protect those two Soviet workers?" It's one of the funniest jokes I've ever heard, haha. ”
Turner didn't laugh, he knew in his heart that it was definitely not a joke.
Although Nathan has already broken the word, the Soviets can still be cheeky and continue to do this, it does not depend on others, it depends entirely on whether the Soviets are ready.
Turner's face was cold.
Hokkaido.
"You two have caused us a lot of trouble!" At the port site, a foreman said to two of his workers, "You know what? Now, the whole island nation is protesting, and the whole United States is protesting, demanding that you be judged! ”
Shevchenko and Igor, both of whom did not look good at this time: "Ostov, we are not to blame for this, we drank too much that day, and besides, the woman made a fuss by herself." ”
Before he could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by Ostov: "Don't tell me this, the new workers are being recruited from Vladivostok, and they will be recruited in about three or four days, and when the new workers come to our construction site, you two will go back to me." ”
Hearing Ostov's words, the two of them suddenly looked ugly: "Don't, we're still pointing here to make money." ”
Anyway, here, it's a business trip, the salary is good, equivalent to several times that in the Far East, if they go back, the two of them may be unemployed. "It's still good to make money, you haven't been sent to court for sentencing, and if those big men in Moscow don't look at the Americans unpleasantly, maybe you have already been sent to court." Ostov's face was ugly, and he said to the two: "These days, work hard, don't go anywhere, especially don't go to the bar again, if you are seen by the islanders, it is possible that the two of you will be beaten to death." ”
The photos of the two sturdy girls have made the headlines of the newspapers, and the appearance of the two people, every island country knows that in the port, they are all Soviets, and they have already pointed fingers at them, if the two go out, they may really be killed.
"How is that possible?" Igor said: "Didn't the Americans say to protect us? ”
Nathan's words soon spread throughout the country and around the world, and the idea began to prevail all over the world that if these two Soviet workers died suddenly and inexplicably, it would be the beginning of war.
So, now they have the confidence that I can't die, if I die, then the world will break out into war, and now my life is related to how many people in the world!
Hearing Igor's words, Ostov couldn't help but hit him hard on the head with his own hand: "Wake up, fool, do you think the Americans will protect you?" That's just a political struggle for American politicians, tell you, the lives of the two of you are not that expensive, if you want to protect your own lives, stay here honestly, don't run around! ”
Do you really think how important you are, and how important is your life? You're just two workers!
Besides, do you think that if the Americans say this, the Soviet Union will not dare to do this? You two fools!
Ostov didn't want to cause trouble, he just wanted the two men to wait safely for the new workers to replace them, and then send them back to the Far East, so that he could rest easy.
instructed his two uncompetitive subordinates a few words, and Ostov had other things, so he had to leave first.
The two of them held wrenches in their hands and continued to work on the construction of the wharf, but they were still very unhappy when they remembered that they couldn't drink alcohol for a few days.
As an old Maozi, he is not afraid of heaven and earth, he can move a knife if he doesn't agree with him, what are the island people afraid of? These island people are the weakest.
When the American GIs came to the island, these islanders also specially prepared comfort personnel for the American GIs to enjoy, hmph, there was no special organization here in Hokkaido, no wonder they would take the initiative.
Isn't she just an island woman?
The two of them were dissatisfied in their hearts, and they worked for a day, two days, and by the third day, they couldn't hold back anymore.
"Hey, Shevchenko, do you want to drink?" Igor said.
Shevchenko nodded: "Yes, but let's bear with it, it is said that the person who will replace us will arrive tomorrow, and tomorrow we will take a boat back to Vladivostok, so naturally we can drink as much as we want." ”
Shevchenko was still somewhat sane and held on for another day.
Igor shook his head: "No, I can't help it, today, I must go out to drink again, no one can stop me from drinking, if you don't go out with me, then I'll go by myself." ”
As an old Maozi, you can do without a woman, you must not have wine, in their lives, wine always comes first.
Most places in the Soviet Union were quite cold, and alcohol was the best way to keep them warm, and they drank it from an early age until they died.
You can't drink, of course, it's worse than death.
Now, seeing that Shevchenko has flinched, Igor has made up his mind and can't hold back.
It's the same as a few days ago when he didn't vent and couldn't hold it back, so he found a woman to vent, and now, he has to drink!
After work, he ate as usual and returned to the dormitory, but, just as he was going to the toilet, he turned over and left.
No one found him, the nearby bars, he was familiar with them, went to buy a drink, drank it and came back, it wouldn't take more than ten minutes, what could go wrong?
