Chapter 715 Part of the transaction
.
The spring rain is misty and moisturizes things silently.
In the midst of the sky and emerald green eyes, Yang Qingquan, wearing plain clothes, walked into the secret base of the Jade City Border Inspection Station covered by giant trees, accompanied by two colonel officers in plain clothes. At this moment, Lu Yuanyuan was waiting for Gan Shaoming, Du Jianwu and others at the entrance of the building for a long time.
Du Jianwu stepped forward and whispered: "General, General Kang is on the way to come. He asked me to apologize to you on behalf of him. I guess he will arrive within half an hour."
Yang Qingquan frowned slightly after hearing this, took off his glasses and wiped it gently with a handkerchief: "Is this kid getting bigger and bigger, and his shelf getting bigger?"
"General is joking, how dare Aning neglect you? But he just rushed back from Yangon last evening and had a night of meeting. He had time to go back to change clothes at five in the morning. After a little sniffing for two or three hours, he went out again. Because he had to attend the important meeting of the pre-mobilization of the Special Administrative Region Council held in the morning. He would have to go there until after one o'clock noon. Then he had time. When he heard that you were about to see him, he got into the car and rushed over to us. To be honest, if he hadn't known that he had practiced martial arts and had good health, I would have been worried that he would not be able to stand it."
Gan Shaoming explained with a smile and made a call: "Let's sit in the house. The outside is wet, and it's really not a place to talk. I specially prepared a pot of Wenxian Biyun Tea to entertain distinguished guests!"
Lu Yuanfang, who was standing beside him, smiled and said, "Yes, General Cha Gan was specially kept for the leader. We talked for a night last night and he couldn't bear to take it out. He said he couldn't buy it if he had tens of thousands of yuan per pound. It's a treasure, haha!"
Yang Qingquan nodded without saying anything. After going in and sitting down, he watched Gan Shaoming make tea quietly. However, he was secretly dissatisfied with his love general's relationship with Gan Shaoming in the distance. Yang Qingquan did not want his love general to get too close to anyone in the Corning government. This is not only a requirement for intelligence work, but also a requirement for the interests of each other's negotiations and transactions in the future.
Looking up at the furnishings in the hall, Yang Qingquan nodded with satisfaction--he likes this quaint and elegant, simple and bright decorative style. In the spacious room, except for a dehumidification equipment produced in China, the other furnishings are not redundant or show off. The sturdy large log table and simple upholstered wooden chairs make the whole environment look relaxed and freehand. A conference room can be arranged like this, which is enough to show that the owner is calm and pragmatic.
Yang Qingquan was extremely moved, and it seemed that every time he met his nephew, this kid would be promoted to a higher level. He even made some surprising achievements. Others did not know that the Myanmar government forces in the southern Myanmar battlefield could reverse the decline when they were about to collapse. While standing firmly in the defense line, they could also use flexible and effective tactical strategies to gradually take the initiative on the battlefield. As the military's intelligence leader, Yang Qingquan knew the mystery better than anyone else. He only needed to look at the Burmese Army.
The sudden launch of the Gemini Mountain special attack war with significant effect. Looking at the small-scale and high-intensity harassment wars carried out by the Burmese army infiltrated the Thai-occupied area, Yang Qingquan knew clearly that with the strength and concept of war among the waste generals of the Burmese army, he could never be so beautiful and outstanding. Yang Qingquan even dared to conclude that Corning must have sent his elite special forces to sneak into the southern front war zone to assist in the war, otherwise the backward and rigid Myanmar government forces would never have achieved such a prominent record.
A few days ago, Corning was suddenly awarded the position of Deputy Chief of Staff by the Central Military Commission of Myanmar and appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Northwest War Theater of Myanmar, which caused an uproar among the generals in the southwest army. The bosses of the Central Military Commission also quickly called for details. The army was incredible. Only Yang Qingquan was shocked and immediately captured the meaning contained therein. Although this matter was abrupt, it was reasonable. Yang Qingquan was deeply moved.
Yes, Corning's position in the minds of several helms of the central government of Myanmar is becoming more and more important. In particular, the high-profile release of two orders by the Central Military Commission of Myanmar is enough to prove that many Burmese generals who were originally extremely resistant to Chinese participation in politics have gradually changed their positions. Although there is also an important factor of helpless choice in a difficult period, these two abnormal orders undoubtedly played a great role. In any case, the prejudice against Chinese people entering politics has gradually been put into practice.
The relationship between the central government of Myanmar and the special zones in northern Myanmar has been greatly eased. Yang Qingquan and his colleagues were amazed at the achievements made by Corning, but they also had their own thoughts. A united Myanmar is like a double-edged sword. It is hard to predict what will happen in the future. In many cases, bystanders who are accustomed to the status quo will feel out of control. Especially the example of capricious and ungrateful Vietnam has made many consistent leaders.
Zhang has become cautious by supporting the development of trust relations and working together in international affairs, and the generals who have expectations for Myanmar have become cautious. After all, a chaotic country with narrow and extreme nationality has been promoted to reconcile and reach a consensus on all parties, and if the future development continues, under the influence of major international forces, the specific direction will become confusing. No one dares to assert whether it is an enemy or a friend, and no one will make inappropriate arbitrary speculation at this time now.
Just as Yang Qingquan was thinking about it, the sound of cars parking outside came from outside. After a while, Kang Ning and Mu Zhen strode into the hall.
Corning walked to Yang Qingquan happily to say hello. Mu Zhen, who was dressed in black military uniform of a major general in the military uniform of a black security force, saluted Yang Qingquan and the others, and everyone stood up to greet him. Both colonels were old acquaintances who had met Corning, and the smiles on their faces were naturally real.
Only Yang Qingquan sat in his original position motionlessly, nodded to Mu Zhen, turned to Kang Ning and asked, "Xiao Mu's grand general uniform is quite majestic, why don't you put on your lieutenant general uniform?"
Kang Ning greeted everyone and begged everyone to sit down. He sat opposite Yang Qingquan and said with a smile: "I dare not wear my lieutenant general uniform. Otherwise, according to the principle of Chinese reciprocity, you, the major general, have to salute me, this lieutenant general. How embarrassed would you be?"
Yang Qingquan snorted coldly, and Colonel Li, the director of the intelligence department of the Southwest Military Region beside him, said with a smile: "Mr. Kang, you don't know yet. The old leader is already on the list of promotions for generals of the major military regions that are being brewed this time. He will soon be promoted to Lieutenant General--his rank of Lieutenant General. It is much more valuable than your rank, haha!"
"Oh? This is a real joy!"
Kang Ning turned his eyes and asked Yang Qingquan, "So, is the second uncle still one level higher than you? I haven't seen him for a long time, and my kind uncle and sister-in-law and beautiful sister, I haven't come to visit me once. Even though I know that my parents have moved to Jinghong, I know that it's inconvenient for me to go back, it's true."
Everyone saw Kang Ning's appearance and laughed. Yang Qingquan sneered: "Do you have to mobilize the elders to come and visit you? Humph. Your official position is getting bigger and bigger now, and your position is equivalent to that of a State Councilor. He is also the deputy chief of staff of the Myanmar Army. He is so obedient! It seems that I really have to salute you... Tell me, what's going on with your position as commander-in-chief of the Northwest War Zone?"
Corning replied seriously: "Chairman Danrui and others have no money to fight. In order to help me help them solve their problems, they generously gave me a false title, haha! But, speaking of this, the opposite of my war zone is your defense zone. If we cooperate unspokenly and honestly, I guess you will have a headache. Now the abnormal movements in Afghanistan and Kashmir are worrying you, right? This Indian has never given up any opportunity to torture you. Who made you beat others up in the past? I almost hit New Delhi, the capital of others. I found that over the years, Indians have regarded this as a national humiliation and are thinking about revenge all day long!"
Yang Qingquan was shocked and asked quietly, "Where did you get the news?"
"The Russians give the land, don't forget that there are three batches of Russians, and a group of Ukrainian underground arms dealers are trading with us for many years. Some of them have a very complicated background. My people have seen their embassies and consulates in Yangon with their own eyes as convenient as entering their own homes, haha! To be honest, they want us to fight, otherwise where will so many smuggled arms be sold?" Corning replied with a smile.
Yang Qingquan sighed and said, "It seems that you have not been idle for the past two years. Your net is getting bigger and bigger... Oh, by the way, when you were in Yangon a few days ago, did anyone come to you? They have always been with you well. Have you promised to help them?"
Kang Ning naturally knew who said it, and nodded immediately: "I mentioned it a little, but I couldn't help Luliang. Didn't one of your delegation arrive in Phnom Penh at noon today? It seems that the tricks planned by Little Vietnam may be bankrupt. But to appease Hong Sheng, you have to give a lot of real money. That guy is a very good businessman! It is said that he never speaks by himself if he wants money. He only needs a look, and someone will give him with both hands. How can he be like me? Every time he opens his mouth, you roll your eyes, just like a big boss in the mainland treats the little beggar on the streets of Mengla City."
Everyone couldn't help laughing when he heard what Corning said interestingly.
Yang Qingquan's old face couldn't be tense anymore, she smiled, and then shook her head helplessly: "I'm asking you for something this time, won't you take the opportunity to quarrel again, right?"
Corning thought for a while and laughed: "Let's say it openly. I really want you this time. At present, Myanmar's natural disasters, man-made disasters, internal and external troubles, the entire national economy and monetary system are almost unable to support it. Yesterday, the ratio of Myanmar kyat to the US dollar had fallen to 1,010 Myanmar kyat to 1 US dollar for the first time. It fell nearly double in just two months. If it is not controlled, it will inevitably cause panic among the whole people and then cause national riots again. It is not easy to calm down.
If the chaos erupts again, it will likely affect the country's ruling foundation of the central government. The Americans and the British have been waiting for this day for a long time. Fortunately, not long ago, Chairman Danrui took decisive measures to resolutely suppress a group of liberal officials close to Britain and the United States, so the current situation can still be withstood for a while. But if it does not improve, Myanmar's territory will change color. If you don't help at such a critical time, you may not know who to chat with you in the future."
"Aren't you very rich? Since this year, you have exponentially reduced the six special-effect raw medicines to the domestic Southern Pharmaceutical Group. However, several of your own pharmaceutical companies have been doing a prosperous job, and have increased the supply price by nearly 50%. With your jadeite, the deep-processed wood business is getting bigger and bigger... Oh, by the way, there is another thing we admire very much. It is that you support the government forces in fighting with Thailand. On the other hand, you work with Thailand for rice, fruit, rubber and palm oil business, and also make rice, fruit, rubber and palm oil business with Thailand.
Many cheap goods in China are sold to Thailand through Laos. It seems that the war between the two countries does not affect your wealth at all! Now you are counting money every day and purchasing billions of RMB on land such as tungsten, zinc, special steel and other strategic materials from relevant domestic companies. Someone roughly estimated that your current value is at least not less than 3 billion US dollars! At this critical moment, are you unwilling to help Danrui and others who value you so much?" Yang Qingquan responded quietly.
Kang Ning argued loudly: "Uncle San, you are wrongly accused me of this! I am not as rich as outsiders say, not to mention that my money is not my own. It is the hard-earned money of all the brothers. Even if a profit of 100 billion yuan per year is generated, it will all become cement roads, factory workshops, machinery and equipment, school hospitals, etc. The raw materials purchased are all from several factories waiting to cook the rice. My nephew, I have a limited expense. In addition to limited reception, every day, no more than three dishes and one soup. Besides, you are not unaware that in order to build our pitifully small army, I have paid you more than 1.5 billion yuan in purchases of equipment. Where do I get the money to support the Myanmar central government now?"
When Yang Qingquan saw Kang Ning's pitiful look, he felt embarrassed and sighed: "The Myanmar government had proposed to us that it had borrowed $2 billion to overcome the difficulties. You also know that such a large number is not something that can be easily decided by any department. I am afraid it will take repeated discussions and layers of approval. Don't expect results without a month or two. Even if the superior agrees, he will probably cut half of it. Who is not short of money these days? Domestic economic reform is at a critical moment, and you must be very clear about these."
Corning's eyes darkened and said in depression: "It seems that there is no hope for you---Chairman Danrui has handed me this task to me, and I have to solve it within one month. It doesn't matter if it's RMB or US dollars. If it really doesn't work, I'm afraid I'll have to fly another trip to Yangon tomorrow. I guess the Americans are willing to lend it to me. Even if they don't believe in the guarantee of the country in Myanmar, my Liland Island and the energy company in the joint venture with the Americans can still be mortgaged. At worst, I will rent one-third of the land in Liland to the Americans for forty-nine years and let them build a naval base, not far from your new base, and everyone is looking at each other from afar. I guess they will be very happy."
"you……"
Yang Qingquan suppressed the anger in his heart and frowned: "Do you think the 2 billion US dollars were printed by your family? Talking lightly... One month is too tight, and two months are probably okay! Don't be too arrogant. Don't be too rude to fool me with these nonsense. Be careful to get angry and seal your ports, and then hoard the army on the border. That's enough for you to drink a pot!"
Kang Ning smiled: "Uncle San, wouldn't you have already paid this? The one-month deadline can't be delayed anymore. I promise you the following two conditions: First, half of the $2 billion in five-year preferential loan can be used as payment for sale to Myanmar military equipment, including gunboats and transport ships. This fund is a great blessing for your domestic military enterprises! Second, I try to drag the Indian San to the Indian-Myanmar border in northwest Myanmar.
After a year or two, he was not worried. Haven't you installed the latest radar system overlooking the entire Indian territory on the Himalayas? Then pretend to build one or two highways to southern Tibet to ensure that Ah San dare not act recklessly in Kashmir. Then he had frequent military interactions with the Pakistani brothers, which made him run around and around, and he was hunched. If he didn't go to you to speak humbly, I would write the word Kang upside down!"
Colonel Li looked at each other, and finally looked at Corning, then turned his eyes to Yang Qingquan, who was already calm, with puzzled and admiration for Corning. Yang Qingquan was also shocked by Corning's vision. Corning's ideas were almost exactly the same as his overall balance and restraint plan. What is even more rare is that Corning seemed to have guessed the biggest reason for his coming here, and took the initiative to express his desire to do a lasting military restraint on the India-Myanmar border, and there was no need to hint with his heart. Judging from his convincing the Central Military Commission of Myanmar to recognize the other three special zone troops, it seemed that he had already had a series of precise implementation plans, and it seemed that he wanted to use the powerful military power of the Special Administrative Region Alliance to undertake the main tasks of the northern Myanmar battlefield.
Yang Qingquan picked up the teacup and took a sip. Just as he was about to say a few words without any pain, a worry flashed in his mind.
Yang Qingquan coughed lightly and sneered, staring at Corning's eyes slowly and said: "If the billion dollars of them are calculated based on weapons and equipment, I am sure to fulfill you, but you have to assure me that you have no other unreasonable thoughts except for the two billion dollars of state aid loan."
Kang Ning shook his head with a frown and said, "Uncle San, do you think if we contribute our efforts, we will have a protracted confrontation with the powerful military rebels and the huge evil forces behind them in northwest Myanmar. Where can we have such financial resources to persist? Even if the four special zones put their best efforts into it, they will only last for three months. From then on, I'm afraid it will be difficult to eat and dress, let alone consume a lot of ammunition, and replenish medicines and logistics supplies. If you go back, you will be on my behalf.
Please plead with the four special zones. Give us some weapons and ammunition to stock up after you change the goods. If you need them, sell them to us. We will pay them back slowly after the war. For a few years, you should know that our credit is ours. Due to the huge cost of this battle, we may not be able to pay it in time, but I promise you that only the default will not be deductible. After the war, even if you sell your money and make a living, you will pay it back year by year as planned."
Yang Qingquan was speechless when facing such Kang Ning. The two colonels and Lu Yuanfang looked at each other and dared not laugh. Gan Shaoming and Mu Zhen did not have so much concern. Looking at the frowning Corning and Yang Qingquan who were almost angry, they all opened their mouths and were so happy. The brothers could not have imagined that Kang Ning's bargaining skills were so excellent, which was no less than the roles he played in the two movies.
Kang Ning ignored everyone's reaction and started to use his elegant and superb local tea art. After fiddling, the fragrant tea was immediately filled with fragrance and the room was filled with fragrance. He respectfully replaced Yang Qingquan with a cup of fresh tea, and then poured a cup for the two major universities and the distance. He served his friends with everyone's thanks, acting calmly and naturally, neither slow nor artificial, which made Yang Qingquan laugh and cry, but he had to secretly praise him.
"Listen to you, this is a major matter of interest, and you cannot be negligent or hasty at all. I will bring your opinions back in full and truthful manner, and I will reply you soon. Here I will tell you first that this is a major matter involving each other's country and nation. There must be a solemn commitment between countries. It is very likely that some kind of document will be formed to form a credit guarantee. You must have a clear understanding of this." Yang Qingquan solemnly warned.
Corning nodded and replied in a low voice: "I have this mental preparation. If I cannot participate in the signing of various documents due to the war, I will let Brother Mu Zhen and Brother Shao Ming sign some documents belonging to our Fourth Special Zone on my behalf. Brother Chen Pu, as a staff officer of the Jingdong Military Sub-district of the Central Military Region, has secretly gone to the southern battlefield for many days, so he has no time to care about this matter. Please forgive me for my third uncle and everyone!"
"No wonder the south side beat so beautifully. I'm afraid that Chen Pu is not the only one who has passed by you..." Colonel Li said suddenly.
Corning and others nodded with a smile, which was a kind of default. Seeing Yang Qingquan looking at him with concern, Corning knew that he was concerned about the next plan of the Chinese and Myanmar army in the southern Myanmar battlefield and the possible changes. Corning smiled slightly at Yang Qingquan and whispered:
"I will report to you later in the war in southern Myanmar. I had another incident about the battlefield in northern Myanmar, which requires your help. What I just said is part of the transaction, below..."
"Wait! Stop me, so many requests are only part of it? Don't go too far! How can your parents raise you if you are a scoundrel who takes advantage of the situation?..." Yang Qingquan cursed dissatisfied.
Chapter completed!
