"What's going on? Daxia is usually an exporting country. They have a vast territory and rich steel resources. Why..."
For a while.
All high-level officials from various countries participating in the meeting were extremely surprised.
They received the messages sent by Daxia almost in no particular order.
Although the quantities are different, without exception, they are all proposing to purchase steel!
"It's strange." Pu Chuan was also confused by the news. "What on earth do they want to do in Daxia? I also received information here, hoping to purchase 100 million tons of steel from our free country."
"To purchase such a large amount of steel... Could you please report how much Daxia needs from you?"
As Pu Chuan spoke, he picked up a pen and started recording.
"Daxia hopes to acquire 60 million tons of steel from our Kameda Kingdom."
"We in Italy have 50 million tons..."
The leaders of various countries reported the amount sent by Daxia.
After a long time.
Puchuan put down his pen and looked at the numbers on the white paper in front of him with a complicated expression.
"Total, 1.5 billion tons of steel."
"Furthermore, Daxia's move is certainly not random. These amounts correspond to our national strength. To be honest, our Free Country has been the world's hegemon in recent years. Although its status has declined in recent years, it still has a steel reserve of 101 million.
Tons, but Daxia just opened his mouth and said 100 million tons."
"Your amount is basically close to the total steel reserves in your treasury."
"This...what exactly does Daxia want to do?" Puchuan frowned.
"Ha, is there any need to think about this?" Kameda, the leader of Kameda Kingdom, sneered, "We were just discussing Daxia's purpose!"
"They're just putting on a show!"
"First hold a press conference to arouse panic, then search for resources and pretend to be preparing for the coming of gods!"
"As long as we believe it, we will be dragged away by them! They will drag down the country's strength!"
"So, Daxia is collecting steel materials this time just to continue to perform for us! We have to believe it!"
As soon as these words came out.
The heads of other countries nodded their heads.
"good."
"Daxia's ambition can be seen at a glance."
"Oh, this performance is really hard."
Seeing that he was recognized, Kameda Shozo continued: "If you want me to watch, we will ignore him and see how he performs."
"As long as we ignore them and are not affected by them."
"Then all they lose is their own national strength!"
"And they probably figured out that it was impossible for us to sell so much steel to them, and they just wanted to intensify our panic!"
For a while.
High-level officials from various countries participating in the meeting nodded.
but.
Only John, the leader of the Great Britain, shook his head slightly.
He flipped through Sun Tzu's Art of War on the table, his eyes flashed with wisdom, and he said in a deep voice: "That's not right."
"The Kameda First Tower proposal is indeed very sound."
"But I think we can simply sell the steel to Daxia directly!"
As soon as these words came out, the whole audience was shocked!
"What?!"
"Master John, are you crazy?"
"Do you know how much steel Daxia wants? What they want... is almost all the steel reserves of our countries!"
"Daxia said it was to resist the gods, but if these steels are given to Daxia...who knows what they will do! If they use them to make weapons and expand their military industry, their military strength will definitely increase to another level!"
"At that time, we will be really in trouble!"
"What does steel resources mean to a country, Mr. John, you don't know, right?"
"If we really give it to Daxia, we will be giving our own resources to them and letting them make weapons to attack us!"
For a while.
Opposition filled the meeting.
John was silent for a moment, and after everyone calmed down a little, he whispered: "Everyone, I know the importance of steel resources to a country."
"but."
"If we require Daxia to directly pay for equivalent items at international steel prices, then even if we are willing to sell, can they afford it?"
"They will definitely pay a heavy price!"
"Besides, it takes time for steel to be turned into weapons."
"Fifteen billion tons of steel... Hehe, with Daxia's productivity, if you want to convert it into military power, I'm afraid it will take decades to consume it all!"
"So, if we sell steel to Daxia, not only will it not contribute to Daxia's military strength in a short period of time, it will actually make Daxia pay a heavy price!"
"As long as we unite, even if they have this batch of steel, they will not dare to take the initiative to start a war with us in a short period of time!"
"If they still want to insist on performing, then with the steel we sell them, they will definitely continue to perform, which will in turn deplete their own national strength."
"Take a step back and say something."
"I'm afraid they won't be able to afford it at all! In the end, they will shoot themselves in the foot."
Puchuan was a little confused when he heard that, and asked directly: "What exactly do you want to say?"
"I want to say that if they can't pay the equivalent price, then we have the reputation to unite and start a war against Daxia!" Chief John sneered: "At that time, other countries, including world public opinion, will not say anything anymore
What."
"After all, there is an old saying in Daxia, repaying debts is a matter of course!"
"Even if they can afford it, in a short period of time, their military strength will not increase by leaps and bounds because of this batch of steel. Instead, their national strength will be damaged because of the purchase of this batch of steel."
"As for us, even if we don't have a large amount of steel reserves, the military strength we already have will not decline in a short period of time."
"We can also take advantage of this period to start a war against Daxia!"
When John said this, he stood up excitedly.
"Everyone."
"Steel can be produced at any time."
"But there is only one chance to attack Daxia!"
For a while.
All the top leaders of the powerful countries present were silent.
After a long time.
Pu Chuan slowly knocked on the table: "Everyone, just do what John wants."
"Remember to warn Daxia to pay for resources of equal value."
"Otherwise, we do not rule out joining forces and taking military action!"
Having said this, Puchuan smiled and said, "Haha, this performance in Daxia is going to destroy me soon."
And the other side.
Shang Weitian, the head of the Ministry of Commerce who had interacted with Lin Fan, was discussing something with Chen Yan.
suddenly.
The phone vibrates.
"Buzz buzz..."
Shang Weitian immediately picked up the phone, chatted for a few words, and then looked at Chen Yan with excitement: "Every country has responded!"
"They all agreed to sell steel to our country at international market prices! And there was no reduction in quantity!"
"After calculation, fifteen tons of steel, plus the 500 million tons of steel reserves in our country, have already met the needs of the Great Steel Wall!"
As soon as these words came out.
Chen Yan's eyes suddenly widened: "Really?"
"real!"
"It's strange." Although Chen Yan was happy, he still couldn't believe it: "How could those countries be willing to sell so much steel to us?"
