Chapter 222: Didn't I Say It Just Now
I only heard Lao Lu say calmly: "It's New York Harbor?" Why didn't I say it just now? â
Roosevelt suddenly laughed in his heart.
Look, look!
I said a long time ago that this man is a hungry wolf, and he can't be satisfied with a little something.
And now it's coming.
Sure enough, it came.
Let you agree, agree!
Now that he is eyeing New York Harbor again, he already knew that Lu Huixiang is shameless, and he has no principles and bottom line.
You can't agree, even if it's a fight!
took the Chinese concession, and now it is plotting to seize the port.
It's shameful enough to take out the concession, but what about the port?
Do you agree or disagree?
What is a concession called?
Foreign residents in the region exercise an independent and complete administrative and judicial system.
Internal self-government, not by the Lend-Lease country to send a governor, but the establishment of a municipal administration body, the Ministry of Industry Bureau, to carry out the functions of municipal, taxation, police, public works, transportation, health, public utilities, education, publicity, etc.
The sovereign owners of the territory of the concession regard the concession as foreign territory and do not dare to easily interfere in the internal affairs of the concession, let alone the presence of troops and police.
Roosevelt could imagine that in the future, the concession would inevitably become an important place to "hide dirt and dirt."
Those who broke the law outside would inevitably go to the concession to seek help from the Chinese concession.
In particular, those who have failed in partisan struggles often still have great prestige in their country, and this is only a failure in the struggle, not a loss of prestige.
And the Chinese are not good people, so why help them?
Naturally, you have to become someone's lackey!
That would be a serious danger to the country.
Even, Roosevelt thought pessimistically that it would be even more difficult to carry out judicial activities on the behavior in the concession in the future, such as extraditing criminals or something, and it was even more a joke.
Moreover, it also saves the process of crossing the river by feeling the stones, and at first everyone didn't know how to do the concession, but there was a pearl and jade in front.
People only need to copy the behavior of themselves and others in Huaxia, and it is enough to drink a pot.
As for the port?
Hehe, how important the port of New York is, everyone knows it without Roosevelt saying it.
First of all, it is a natural deep-water port, located at the mouth of the Hudson River in the northeast of the beautiful country, and the Atlantic Ocean in the east.
The geographical conditions are unique.
The channel is 16 kilometers long, 610 meters wide and has a maintenance depth of 13.72 meters.
Such a port is rare in the whole beautiful country.
Since the opening of the Erie Canal in the Great Lakes region in 1982 and the increase of railroads, New York Harbor has developed rapidly and has become an important gateway to the Great Lakes Basin, which can be said to be the largest transportation hub in the beautiful country.
The bridgehead that crosses the East-West Land Bridge in the beautiful country, from New York in the east to Seattle in the west, is of great significance for its location.
If this place is gone, the beautiful country will be cut off.
And if China really takes the port, what will happen to the big companies in New York? How to live?
It's destined to be another struggle!
"New York Harbor? Foreign Minister Lew, you can't do that, there's nothing wrong with New York Harbor, and it's not within the scope of our negotiations, right? â
Roosevelt stopped talking, and the rest of the high-ranking officials couldn't help it.
In particular, the representative of the council, Congressman Diana, seemed to be a beautiful woman, but Old Lou completely ignored it.
This man is not within his aesthetic range.
"How am I? I also think that New York Harbor is not within the scope of this negotiation, but sometimes I can't help myself, you know, Mr. Nie has given instructions that the issue of New York Harbor must also be discussed! â
"The preliminary assumption is that regarding the armistice, the Chinese Concession is one thing, and New York Harbor is also one thing!"
"This is the main content of the treaty, you can take a look."
Lao Lu is almost the same, to put it bluntly, he is too lazy to act.
Didn't you see Roosevelt and didn't speak?
It's not interesting to continue acting.
As for Diana, who just spoke? Hehe, it's not enough to let Lao Lu accompany her to act.
Lao Lu didn't need to pretend, and directly put the conditions out.
Sure enough, after Lao Lu distributed the documents to the participants, he sat down and drank tea.
But the more people in the beautiful country look at it, the more frightened they become.
The name is very nice.
Treaty of Amity and Commerce between China and China
But the content made everyone want to scold!
First of all, the first point is unacceptable.
Chinese people are allowed to invest and set up factories in the four major cities of the beautiful country, among which New York Harbor is an important treaty port, and more is required.
It is also necessary to add four major cities of Washington, Los Angeles, Houston and Chicago as commercial ports.
"Foreign Minister Lu, is your appetite too great? This is completely unacceptable to us. â
"New York Harbor means a lot to us, we can talk about anything else, but this can't happen!"
Since Lao Lu doesn't want to act, he doesn't care.
Whispered.
"If you don't talk about it, don't talk about it, Xiao Huang, call Commander Zhang!"
The scene is deadlocked!
Negotiations could not continue.
These things are no longer up to them.
Negotiations ran aground. gÅÎ b.Åγg
Lao Lu is not in a hurry.
Sooner or later they will agree, Huaxia supplies go abroad, that is a must.
This was the first step towards industrialization in China.
It is also one of the important measures for Nie Li to engage in the hegemony of oil and silver dollars.
Oil alone is not stable.
The strength of the silver dollar should not be built only on oil, but on the dumping of large quantities of commodities.
Let's take an analogy.
Domestic agricultural and sideline products, industrial products.
Even, high-end items such as silk.
In addition to personal use, it can only go out to exchange money, and only by going out to exchange money can the economy grow.
It allows the state to plunder the fruits of the labor of other people.
A beautiful country has a certain and complete industrial system, but it may not be able to withstand commodity dumping.
In particular, there is a tariff agreement behind it.
As long as you step out, you can rely on a large number of items to consolidate the status of the silver dollar.
In the past three days, Lao Lu did not come forward, and only asked Zhang Qiuju to contact the people of the beautiful country. With Zhang Sanmad constantly advancing the troops.
The state of San Diego has been taken.
In the end, the first one accepted.
However, the number of open cities should be reduced.
In the end, two remained.
Lao Lu agreed in order to speed up the progress.
The second point is to expand the scope of consular jurisdiction: in the event of a lawsuit between a Chinese national and a beautiful country, the Chinese national will be arrested and interrogated by the Chinese consul and other officials, and the dispute between the Chinese national and the beautiful national will be handled in accordance with Chinese laws and practices, and the officials of the beautiful country have no right to intervene.
I was glad to accept this.
Why?
Anyway, the concessions have been established, so I don't care about consular rights at this point.
But when it came to the third article, Zhang Sanmad had to take out the rocket artillery vehicle troops, and he vented his anger frantically.
Agreement tariff: "If the United States wants to change the tax rate in the future, it must negotiate with the Chinese consul and other officials."
Well said.
That's actually the hardest thing to accept.
I can't call the shots with my own tariffs.
