Rise from eight hundred.

Chapter 1075 Good and Evil!
"I am a Chinese soldier!"

Tang Dao faced Laura Rockefeller, who was a little embarrassed, and confessed his identity.

"Chinese soldiers, again." Laura instinctively wanted to say so what?

But as soon as the words came out, she knew that she not only misunderstood Tang Dao's meaning, but also fell into a disadvantage that was rare in this purely commercial negotiation, not because of how clever her opponent was, but because she was released intentionally or unintentionally Intimidated by his murderous intent, he eventually lost his original calm judgment.

Including Tang Dao's very simple six words just now, in fact, it represents not only a frank statement of identity, but also the implication behind it is that the Chinese military hopes to obtain benefits or assistance from Rockefeller. Her previous anger was completely false.

People always have to fill their stomachs before thinking about other things, right?
After thinking about all this, Laura's face flushed instantly, and she was so embarrassed that she almost dug out the solid bottom of her riding boots out of three rooms and two halls.

"It turned out to be Chinese soldiers. Your firm anti-aggression war is indeed worthy of everyone's respect, but Mr. Tang's title is inappropriate. I wonder if it is Lieutenant Tang or Captain Tang?" emotional Laura asked softly.

This can be regarded as a kind of counterattack by Miss Laura. The subtext is just that you are at most a lieutenant, and you come here to pretend to be a big-tailed wolf.

"I'm sorry, Miss Laura, I'm not a lieutenant." Tang Dao shook his head, facing Laura with surprised sea blue eyes. "You can call me Colonel Tang."

"It's impossible, you're only in your 20s at most." Laura subconsciously felt that Tang Dao was bragging.

The black guard, Lieutenant James Bond, who was assigned to her by her family, was adopted by the family since she was a child, and after rigorous training, she was sent to the army for training. With the support of the family's huge funds and background, it took only six years. Promoted to Lieutenant of the Navy.

Although there is also a relationship between skin color, it is undeniable that even a white race is absolutely impossible to become a colonel officer in his twenties, and he can almost command an army division or a cruiser or even a battleship. qualified.

"Miss Laura, as you know, although this is a concession, for our Chinese soldiers, this is an enemy-occupied area." Tang Dao looked deeply at the foreign girl who was so surprised that her brain circuit was clear enough, very seriously Said.

Tang Dao's meaning is very clear. This is an enemy-occupied area. The bigger my official position, the more dangerous I am. Am I stupid if I brag?
"Thank you Colonel Tang for trusting me." Laura responded instantly.

She might have been a little bit left-handed just now, but a heavenly girl who received elite family education and graduated from a prestigious school since she was a child, even if she is really stupid, she must have mastered the seven senses and the six senses.

Of course, and more importantly, she thought of a young man who had driven the Japanese crazy in the past month and had been reminded by the US intelligence agency in China. He was also surnamed Tang, and he was also a young man.

Could it be that it was him?

But this time Laura turned her head very quickly, Tang Dao didn't say anything, she didn't need to say this at all.

In fact, from the perspective of human nature, it is actually beneficial to both the male and female parties if some seemingly invisible films are not pierced.

After all, ambiguity is the real beauty, and everything can get boring very quickly.

"Hehe, does Miss Laura know why Tang dared to tell the story?" Tang Dao lightly smiled and took out a cigarette from his pocket, and gestured to Laura in a very gentlemanly manner.

"Why? Can I say that I'm curious too?" Laura, who frowned slightly, gestured to Tang Dao to let him go, and watched curiously at this young Chinese soldier with a calm demeanor, lighting a cigarette by himself.

Laura is 26 years old this year, and she is already 27 years old according to the Chinese calculation of imaginary age. Since she was 16 years old, her grandfather who carefully cultivated her has frequently taken her to various social occasions. Ten years is enough for her to see all kinds of people in this world. man.

Some of them are gentlemen, some are arrogant, some are indulgent, some are cunning, some are vicious, etc., but no matter what kind of traits, these men are in front of her, without exception, in disguise, some of which she discovered by herself, Some were awakened by her wise grandfather.

'The Emperor's New Clothes is an exaggerated satire of the absurd, but human nature is not single but complex, and it is everyone's instinct to put a gorgeous coat on one's ugly heart. ’ This is a meaningful motto of my grandfather, which deeply impressed Laura.

But the man in front of her was different from any man she had ever seen. He never seemed to hide his heart.

Whether he used the media to threaten Citibank from the very beginning, or had a murderous intent in his impatience, or lit a cigarette openly in front of himself.

There are green plants and flowers everywhere in this general manager's office. In fact, the details have revealed that this office has changed hands since she arrived here. There is no smell in the room filled with the fragrance of flowers. It shows that the owner doesn't like the taste of nicotine. With the wisdom shown by Tang Dao before, she doesn't believe that Tang Dao can't guess it.

But Tang Dao still went his own way, lit a cigarette, and let the choking smell of tobacco fill the whole room.

Doesn't this bastard smoker know how to hide his desire?
Of course, compared to this, curiosity is far stronger.

Because, when Tang Dao revealed his identity as an army colonel, he almost put his life and death in Laura's hands, and he was a creditor, a creditor worth tens of millions of dollars.

If Laura wanted to renege on this account, the easiest way would be to disclose the news to the Japanese army. At that time, let alone a colonel, even an admiral, he would definitely not be able to leave Jincheng alive.

The Japanese, who had suffered heavy losses in the southeast Shanxi battle just now, could crush the young man in front of him.

"First of all, this is based on the faith of the Rockefeller family. I have never been to the United States, but I have heard many stories about your great-grandfather. For example, he also came to China after retirement."

What Tang Dao said was about the old Rockefeller. In time and space, the old Rockefeller really came to China. In the last few years of the Qing Dynasty in the early 20th century, he spent huge sums of money to buy a palace in Pingbei City.

Buying a palace just shows that the old man is rich and self-willed, but what the old Rockefeller did next is really a bit awesome.

In the process of renovating the old palace, unexpectedly, a cellar was discovered under the drained pond in the backyard, which contained valuable calligraphy, paintings, porcelain, gold and silver jewelry, and the initial estimate was as high as tens of millions of silver.

Not to mention ordinary people, this amount of money is not a small amount even for a rich man like the old Rockefeller, and it was obtained from the house he bought, so it was normal for him to belong to him in that era.But the old Rockefeller insisted on a concept that "wealth obtained there must be used there!" '.

Therefore, the old Rockefeller invested in the construction of the largest Western medicine hospital at that time in Pingbei City, which was also the predecessor of the Pingbei Xiehe Hospital in the future. After more than ten years of investment, not only the investment cost exceeded the value of the "treasure" itself, but even exceeded Not a lot.

Obviously, Laura also knew about what her great-grandfather did. When she heard Tang Dao's story again, tears welled up in Laura's sea-blue eyes, which was the nostalgia for her deceased great-grandfather.

"I'm sorry to make you laugh, Colonel Tang." She reached out and rubbed her reddish eye sockets, and after the defense was broken, Laura regained the noble and charming girl attitude she had been trying her best to maintain.

"There, Ms. Laura showed me the success of the Rockefeller family's education. No matter in the past or in the future, it is not unreasonable for the Rockefeller family to stand tall in this world where the jungle preys on the weak." Tang Dao shook his head and replied with a straight face.

"Okay! Let's get back to the point. Colonel Tang, how do you need us to compensate you for your loss? You can just say it directly. It is for your affirmation and recognition of my great-grandfather. If I can do it, I will definitely do it." Lao Ra said.

"This, in fact, I have already said it before." Tang Dao suddenly smiled slightly.

"You didn't." Laura was stunned, and then realized. "You mean to help you win this war, NO! NO! Our United States Federation is a neutral country and cannot provide any help to the warring parties. This is contrary to the purpose of our country."

"Hehe, can I give my own comment on the so-called neutral country?" Tang Dao's mouth was full of disdain, and he continued before Laura answered: "In my opinion, your Federation just wants to borrow They are nothing more than businessmen who make a fortune from the war, as long as they can make money, the so-called neutrality is just a memorial archway set up by the bitch at the entrance of the village."

Bitter bluntness is like a javelin shot at the daughter of the American consortium on the opposite side.

Just when Laura opened her sea-blue eyes angrily, Tang Dao continued: "Otherwise, where did the huge ships loaded with iron ore and steel come from in groups outside the Japanese port? Dear Miss Laura, don't tell Me, those are cargo ships from other countries flying the flag of your Federation."

Laura was speechless.

Because what Tang Dao said is true. In 1937 before the war, the strategic materials exported by the United States to Japan reached 3 million U.S. dollars. In 1938, although the amount decreased slightly, it was as high as 1 million U.S. dollars in the first half of the year. It will never be less than $2 million.

"Miss Laura, you are at the top of a large consortium in your country. Don't you know that the relationship between countries is far more delicate and cold than the relationship between people?" Laughed.

International relations has long been a science.People are divided into good and evil, but there is still some ambiguity between countries.

Just like the military supplies trade between the United States and Japan and the aid to China after the outbreak of the Pacific War, it is neither malicious nor good, it is just a transaction, just a business.

In the early days of the Second World War, the formation of the Allied Powers and the Axis Powers was very complicated. It was not the imagined Germany, Italy, and Japan who were sympathetic to each other, and the United States, Britain, and France were deeply in love with each other.

Before the Anti-Japanese War, the United States, Germany, and the Soviet Union were the three major powers that most affected the progress of the Sino-Japanese War. Comparing the evolution of the relationship between the three major powers and China and Japan, we can know that there is no consistent good intentions and malice, only complex international games.

Take the U.S. trade with Japan for example. By 1939, Japan’s total oil imports from the U.S. accounted for 80.00% of its imports, and steel accounted for 90.00%. This objectively supported Japan’s invasion of China, but it also actually supported Japan’s launch of the Pacific Ocean. war.

What's more, the United States not only exported military supplies to Japan, but also exported military supplies to its future enemy, the Germanic Empire.

At this time, the United States is enjoying peace and prosperity. Isolationism and pacifism are the mainstream on Capitol Hill. President Ross cannot declare his participation in the war.

Therefore, assistance to China began in 1938, with a loan of 2500 million U.S. dollars that year, and a loan of 1939 million U.S. dollars in 1. In 1940, 100 fighter jets were provided to China to protect the Burma Road.

This is the trade situation of the United States with Japan, China, and Germany. There are pro-Japanese, pro-China, and pro-German, because the United States is not monolithic. The fact is that the largest ethnic group in the United States at that time was Germanic. Is the so-called good and evil obvious?
Besides, the Germanic Empire, as the two cores of the Axis powers in World War II, should belong to the hard core with Japan, but the largest international aid China once received in the fight against Japan actually came from them.

Even in 1940, there was still an arms trade between China and the Germanic Empire. Otherwise, why do you think Rostav Krupp agreed to the agreement with Tang Dao so readily?That's because of the will of the upper-level leaders, he can do this to earn more profits for the empire.

The reason for this is actually the same as in the United States. There are also pro-Japanese factions and pro-China factions in the Germanic Empire. The pro-Japanese faction is represented by Air Force Minister Green, and the pro-China faction is represented by Foreign Minister Wright. Perhaps the most unified point of view of the two factions is Oppose Japan's invasion of China, because China is the largest trading and arms partner of the Germanic Empire in the Far East. If the local rich man was killed by the Japanese, who would like to let it go?

It was not until the establishment of the three-nation axis of Germany, Japan and Italy that China and the Germanic Empire completely closed the door to cooperation. Closing the door cannot be said that the Germanic Empire is malicious, and providing arms to China is not good intentions. After all, it is just a transaction and business.

Another powerful neighbor placed in China is actually the same. On the one hand, they supported China's resistance against Japan, and even sent a flying team to aid China in 1938. They fought for three years, and on the other hand, they tried to exchange oil with Japan. Back to North Sakhalin Island.

Therefore, it is undoubtedly an extremely naive idea to distinguish between good and evil in the relationship between countries one-sidedly. This is what Tang Dao wants to express.

He knew that the foreign girl in front of him, who had obviously received strict family education, could understand this truth.

It is normal for Americans to want to profit from the war. Tang Dao can provide the funds he can, as long as the Americans can bring supplies.

Laura fell into deep thought and did not raise her head until a long time later, with admiration in her eyes: "Colonel Tang, I finally understand why you became a colonel at such an age. Your knowledge is very extensive. In the words of you Chinese, Laura admired it."

"What is your decision, Miss Laura?"

"I have to know what materials your military needs. If it involves arms, please forgive Laura Rockefeller's incompetence." The girl who had already made a decision smiled.

She smiled brightly, but also with a bit of cunning.

In this negotiation, Tang Dao took almost all the initiative, and now it is finally her turn to fight back
