Chapter 399: "Fifty-First State"

As a 'business animal', the whole spirit of the president of LS Group was mobilized at this time, seeing him dancing, Zhang Lisheng shook his head and said: "Charlie, Charlie, Charlie, don't be so excited, it's just my idea to let the Mi government entrust the management of 'Sea Shrimp B1 Island' to us..."

"No, no, no boss, your idea is not valid at the beginning, there is no way for the government of the United States to entrust us with the management of 'Sea Shrimp B1 Island'," Edward, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly interrupted the young man's words, "That island is independent, it is in your hands, not in the hands of the government."

This was a far cry from the British army who had occupied half of Asia and had the East and West India Companies run over the colonies.

We should look at things from a different perspective, from a different perspective, and not look at that island as a city full of curry-smelling India or a Bangladesh where tigers run around the streets..."

"Then what do you think of it?" Zhang Lisheng asked with his hands outstretched.

"Think of it as the Hawaiian Islands boss.

'Sea Shrimp Island B1' is the Hawaii of the 'otherworldly', and it is a Hawaii that does not need the despicable subversion of the regime by the missionaries of the Christians of the United States, and does not need the 'Congress' to make a bill to apologize...", Edward replied.

"Oh God, Edward, you're such a genius, Hawaii, aha, and only you lawyers and politicians can come up with such brilliant ideas!" Charlie, who was sitting on the side, paused for a moment, and suddenly couldn't help but exclaim.

Zhang Lisheng said with a questioning face: "Edward, Charlie, what are you talking about?" Why is it a brilliant idea to think of 'Shrimp Island B1' as Hawaii?"

"Boss, you're not a native of the United States who grew up in the United States, and you don't know this metaphor," Charlie replied excitedly: "Hawaii only became the fiftieth state of the United States in the middle of the last century, and there are still many citizens of the former Kingdom of Hawaii alive there...

Oh, of course it doesn't matter, the important thing is that in addition to the original thirteen member states, the other thirty-seven states have a variety of origins, some by war, and some by trade. There are also states that are 'voluntary' to join the federation. For example, 'Hawaii', of course, some of these dirty methods don't need to be put on the table..."

"Oh, we see what you mean, you're talking about making Shrimp Island B1 a state like Hawaii. Zhang Lisheng first showed an expression of sudden realization. Then he shook his head incredulously and said, "But how is this possible." It's crazy, weird. ”

"Boss, I don't see anything crazy about this," Charlie shrugged and said, "'Sea Shrimp B1 Island' and Hawaii are both islands, and in terms of geographical location, Hawaii is thousands of kilometers away from the mainland of the United States. 'Shrimp Island B1' is less than 100 kilometers off the coast of New York, which is better than that.

Of course, we must admit that the natives on the 'shrimp B1 island' are shorter and uglier, but now the times are different, we are in an era of great change, 'the world is unified', and human beings must adapt to get along with other intelligent beings in the 'world of the world' on an equal footing.

Let's talk about testing genes, maybe the natives on 'Sea Shrimp B1 Island' are more genetically similar to us than the Hawaiian natives, who knows this kind of thing.

What's more, now the people of the earth need to take this step, take this step of brave integration, so that we can be 'like a family' with other people from other worlds who also yearn for peace. ”

With that, Charlie stood up from his seat and made a hug motion.

"Thought-provoking, Charlie, thought-provoking, I think if these words appeared on TV, they would have won the admiration of most pacifists. Edward clapped vigorously.

"Thank you, my dear old friend. Charlie hugged his old friend, sat down again, turned his gaze to Zhang Lisheng and said, "What do you think of the boss now?"

"I don't know how to say it, but from the perspective of Chinese people, we usually feel that 'if they are not of our race, their hearts will be different'.

Not to mention the people of the otherworld who are like those alien creatures. Zhang Lisheng was stunned for a while, then opened his mouth and said: "Oh, by the way, not long ago, the natives of the 'Otherworldly Realm' of 'Sea Shrimp B1 Island' just attacked the human gathering place on 'Sea Shrimp B1 Island', causing tens of thousands of deaths.

But since what we're dealing with is the U.S. government that segregated blacks 30 years ago, and elected a black man as president 30 years later, then maybe things will, will...

Oh, I can't convince myself, I still think it's crazy, but you're the 'experts' at it, we might as well try, but Edward, I don't think even on Earth can you say that you want to join the United States of America as one of the states, right?"

"Of course, boss, there are several key issues in the jurisprudence of a certain region's voluntary membership in the United States, first of all, its sovereignty and governing power must be without any dispute, and it must be completely in its own hands;

Secondly, the vast majority of people living there must agree to give up their previous identity and become a citizen of the United States;

And it must recognize the values of democracy and voluntarily abide by the Constitution of the United States..."

"Oh Edward, the natives on the 'Sea Shrimp B1 Island' alone can't do it, can you imagine letting them spontaneously form a court and elect civil servants, and they are still covering their shame with leaves and animal skins?" Zhang Lisheng suddenly interjected with a dumb smile.

"But boss, if those natives can't, you can order them to do it, aren't you their 'god'. Edward replied.

"I'll order them," Zhang Lisheng said in astonishment, "If I order them, what is the meaning of so-called 'democracy'?"

"Of course, you can't give such an order openly and openly, but private beliefs are also the freedom of every citizen.

Just today, now, at this time, do you know how many cases of incest and rape between blood relatives are happening on Mormon farms in Texas?

But without the victim's accusations and evidence, no judge would have issued a search warrant for no reason to ask for trouble with the Mormon ranchers, let alone forbid citizens from believing in 'Mormon'.

Boss, no legal system in this world is perfect enough to drill into the loopholes, in short, you don't have to worry about these details, just leave them to a professional like me. Edward replied with a smile.

As soon as he finished speaking, Charlie said on the side: "What you have to worry about is what 'Shrimp B1 Island' can provide to the federal government, and the word 'benefit' is the most critical issue for success." ”

"Aha, I learned another lesson today, there are really 'surprises' everywhere in the country.

It seems that it was a wise move for me to come to New York with my mother. Zhang Lisheng looked at the president and chief legal officer of LS who had already been coerced and lured into the 'chariot' by his own coercion and profit, and said after a long silence: "What we can provide to the federal government is endless gold, of course, I think it's better not to disclose this early..."

"Oh, of course. For the first time, Charlie and Edward agreed with Zhang Lisheng's opinion.

"In addition to gold, there are also abundant biological resources on the 'shrimp B1 island';

beautiful and dangerous island scenery;

bizarre handicrafts;

Meat worms that are well cooked and taste good..."

"Boss, frankly, good scenery and gnome roasted bugs don't interest the politicians in Congress. Edward said solemnly.

"I think so," Zhang Lisheng pondered for a moment, "There are iron ores on the island, which are rich in high-purity iron ore, but I want to build these ores for steam ships, and I can't mention anything...

Oh, and when I think of steamboats, many of the trees on Shrimp Island B1 have roots and branches that are more resistant to burning than coal, and they generate a lot of heat.

What's more, every 30 to 40 years, a magical rain of light falls on the island, which can make all the vegetation grow as if it had grown freely for hundreds of years overnight, which means that it is not afraid of destructive mining, which is equivalent to an open-pit renewable coal field with an area of 30,000 square kilometers. ”

"A 30,000-square-kilometer open-pit renewable coal field," Charlie muttered to himself, and Da Lu said with a smile: "Becoming the boss, this alone should be enough."

In this way, the 'Sea Shrimp B1 Island Comprehensive Development Company', which I set up at your orders, has been put to a standstill because of the bloodshed caused by the natives in the human settlement on the island, and now I will put it up and running, and first get some wood like the one you mentioned.

The first step is to prove the value of the wood, and then I need you to make sure that only the people of the 'Shrimp B1 Island Integrated Development Company' can continue to get wood from the island..."

Although the words of the president of LS Group were very vague, Zhang Lisheng, who was the most proficient in such bloody methods, easily heard the meaning this time, and said with a cold smile: "Don't worry Charlie, when I return to the island next time, I guarantee that except for the people who wear the badge of the 'Sea Shrimp B1 Island Comprehensive Development Company', only the dead can touch those big trees." ”

"OK boss, that's what I want, but it's best to control the conflict less tragically, with less than ten dead and wounded. Charlie nodded as usual as if he didn't understand the metaphor in the young man's words.

"As I said, you and Edward are experts, and I listen to you. Zhang Lisheng smiled slightly, agreed kindly, and after the business was discussed, he chatted with Charlie and Edward for a while, and in order to avoid Maddie, he got into Charlie's car and rushed to New York City. (To be continued......)

PS: Today's first update is presented, because I went to the martyr's cemetery to attend the memorial service for Liu Hongkun's martyrs, and it was all later.

I am very moved today, I am a peer of Pig Pig, and there are martyrs among my good friends who joined the army in the same year, alas, what a pity
