"Isaac Pansy and Isaiah Chamberlain are a little bloated. They have reached the point where they are about to retire and they still want to give it a try before retiring."
"There are Americans behind this incident, and they are trying to create disputes around our southern African borders."
"Billel Page deserves attention. He wants to run for president. If he is successfully elected, our relationship with the Republic of Congo may continue to deteriorate."
"On Boma's side, Interior Minister Donald Sassoon and Commerce Secretary Benson Moore can be trusted. Soyo Mayor Willie Black also has a good relationship with us and he also hopes to compete for the presidential position."
Douglas and Bradley complemented each other, and Buck finally had a general understanding of the situation in the Republic of Congo.
"The embassy is preparing a thank you reception and invite these people over. I want to have a chat with them alone." Buck took advantage of the situation. The Republic of Congo is a country single-handedly supported by Southern Africa. Without the intervention of Southern Africa, the Republic of Congo would have been
It is estimated that they have been annexed by the Kingdom of Congo long ago. Although Isaac Pansy and Isaiah Chamberlain are bloated, they still have relatively clear minds.
It is said that Southern Africa has such a great influence on the Republic of Congo, and it is a dereliction of duty to some extent to only train these few officials who are pro-Southern Africa.
After sending Douglas and Bradley away, Buck looked through the information sent by Douglas and Bradley.
Generally speaking, the situation in the Republic of Congo is good. Except for Pansy Chamberlain and Peggy, most officials of the Republic of Congo have maintained good relations with southern Africa.
On the contrary, there is relatively loud opposition to Southern Africa in the parliament, mainly because of the interests involved.
As mentioned before, the resources of the Republic of Congo are mainly exported to southern Africa.
There is an obvious problem here. The same ton of ore can be sold for ten rands in Europe or the United States, but can only be sold for one rand in southern Africa.
There is definitely a freight factor, but the more important factor is that most of the mineral resources in the Republic of Congo are controlled by southern African companies, and the Congolese people have not enjoyed the benefits of resource development.
Especially for those MPs who hold a certain amount of power.
For officials, the impact is relatively small, as they are paid.
After learning about the specific situation in the Republic of Congo, Buck had a plan, but the specific plan still had to be communicated with Pretoria, and Buck could not make a decision alone.
The next morning, Isaac Pansy came early to report.
Buck had traveled a long distance and slept for less than four hours. He was extremely tired but in good spirits.
Different from the friendly atmosphere last night, Buck was not polite when we met again today.
"Do we have to build an arsenal?" Buck wore only a shirt and no coat, which was in stark contrast to Isaac Pansy, who was meticulous in his three-piece suit.
"Mr. Speaker, it was not our decision to build the arsenal--" Isaac Pansy tried to pass the blame.
"I don't care whose decision it is, you have to consider the consequences -" Buck was domineering and directly interrupted Isaac Pansy's words.
Isaac Pansy has an ugly expression. He is also the president of a country. He is so arrogant when he comes up. It is really disrespectful.
Buck really doesn't give face. The vassal country must have the consciousness of the vassal country. Don't half-heartedly finish the bowl and look at the pot. Are the Americans so kind? Look at how Mexico is bullied by the Americans.
Historically, Mexico was not less than 2 million square kilometers today. Texas, California, Arizona, Nevada, Utah, New Mexico, and more than half of Colorado in the United States were all snatched from Mexico, with a total area of more than 2.3 million square kilometers.
It was larger than Mexico today.
No wonder Mexico laments that God is too far away and the United States is too close.
"Our Deputy Minister of Defense will visit the Kingdom of Congo next month, and he may also come to Boma by then. If he comes, you can have a good exchange." Buck is not firing cannons, this is a real threat of war.
The implication of Buck's words is: If the Republic of Congo insists on having its own way, then the deputy minister will probably not come to the Republic of Congo, and most of the people who will come will be the army of the Kingdom of Congo.
"——" Isaac Pansy's face turned pale. The reaction in southern Africa was more intense than Isaac Pansy and Isaiah Chamberlain imagined. This consequence is something that the Republic of Congo cannot bear.
Although the Republic of the Congo is a country founded by white people, the majority of the population in the Republic of the Congo is actually African.
Now in the Republic of Congo, there are less than 300,000 white people, and the total African population is more than 4 million. Therefore, if the army of the Kingdom of Congo really comes over, it is really doubtful whether the troops of the Republic of Congo, which are mainly Africans, will defect in battle.
Easy to say.
The reason why Isaac Pansy and Isaiah Chamberlain were optimistic before was partly because of the support of the United States, and another reason was also because of the neglect of the Republic of Congo in southern Africa over the years.
This gave Isaac Pansy and Isaiah Chamberlain the illusion that Southern Africa did not attach much importance to the Republic of Congo.
Hey, it feels a bit like Stockholm Syndrome.
"Southern Africa and the Republic of Congo have always had friendly relations. We have many common interests. I think we should focus on issues that can lead to common development, such as mutually beneficial tariff issues, rather than these issues that will seriously affect our relations.
On the matter." Buck hit a stick and gave a sweet date. The "mutual benefit" of tariffs simply means sharing profits.
Of course, this "concession" depends on the situation. For example, if tariffs are eliminated between Southern Africa and the Republic of Congo, Southern Africa will definitely benefit more.
But there is a problem involved here. After the tariffs are lifted, the government of the Republic of Congo will suffer losses, but the companies will gain great benefits. This is a major benefit for business owners.
And business owners in the Republic of Congo, haha——
"Of course, of course, we should focus our main attention on these issues-" Isaac Pansy's forehead was covered with sweat, and his hands were shaking when he took out a handkerchief to wipe the sweat. As a result, his hairstyle was messed up while wiping the sweat.
, looking quite embarrassed.
"That's right. I communicated with Prime Minister Philip, Governor of Kitchener, before I came here. We unanimously agreed to increase the price of commodities purchased from Boma and at the same time reduce tariffs on imported goods. What do you think?" Buck asked
Isaac Pansy's attitude was still satisfactory.
With Southern Africa's influence on the Republic of Congo, if Isaac Pansy disobeys, Southern Africa can use its resources to replace a president.
Instigating a war between the Kingdom of Congo and the Republic of Congo is a bad policy, changing the president is a middle policy, and what Buck is doing now is the best policy. If a child is disobedient, just spank him. There is no need to throw him into an orphanage directly, let alone drown him in a well.
, not to that extent.
In other words, Southern Africa must also consider the impact of directly launching a war or changing the president.
After all, the Kingdom of Congo and the Kingdom of Mozambique are watching this incident in the Republic of Congo. If Southern Africa shows no mercy, it will definitely have a negative impact on the Kingdom of Congo and the Kingdom of Mozambique.
At this level, if the whole body is affected, Southern Africa is the only country in Southern Africa and cannot act arbitrarily.
"Thank you, Mr. Speaker, we will also increase the amount of goods we buy from southern Africa - no, we will only buy goods from southern Africa in the future, and we will also reduce tariffs on southern African goods -" Isaac Pansy did not
I dare to say that if it is cancelled, the tariffs on southern African goods are one of the few sources of revenue for the Republic of Congo. Once they are cancelled, the Republic of Congo will have a northwest wind.
Isaac Pansy's promise was mainly in response to the purchase of machines from the United States. The implication is: I know I was wrong, and I will change it!
Although the Republic of Congo is not strong, it has a market of 45 million people. Although those Africans do not have high requirements for life, they still need to eat and wear clothes. Every year, the amount of textiles imported by the Republic of Congo from southern Africa is
It's over 20 million rand. It's unimaginable that a country as big as the Republic of Congo doesn't even have a textile industry. All textiles must be imported from southern Africa.
"Hehehehe, before I come here, Lord Nyasaland asked me to bring you a gift - on behalf of the Federal Government of Southern Africa, I present two private jets to you and Prime Minister Chamberlain. These two private jets are the same as those of Malaysia.
It’s the same as the private jet used by Lord Tilda, and the comfort is pretty good -" Next came the much-loved gift-giving session. What Rock gave to Isaac Pansy was a craft produced by Nyasaland military industry.
pistol.
Giving the president a pistol seems a little out of place.
However, considering Rock's identity, this gift is justified.
What Rock gave to Isaac Pansy was a Luger craft pistol. The pistol was made entirely of gold, and it was blindingly golden. The handle of the gun was also inlaid with diamonds, and it was equipped with eight bullets also made of gold.
.
Don't doubt it, this gun can fire, but it's a bit expensive.
When Isaac Pansy accepted this gift, his expression was obviously complicated.
It is indeed a gift, but it has another meaning. If you are obedient, this gift is a symbol of friendship. If you are disobedient——
That is the threat of Hongguoguo.
No doubt, in Rock's usual style, Isaac Pansy had no doubt about Rock's bottom line.
Looking back, of course Isaac Pansy had to return the favor.
But Isaac Pansy would definitely not dare to give a gun in return for Rock's gift.
What Isaac Pansy gave Rock was an ivory-carved pagoda, and it was a pagoda shape that the Chinese were very familiar with. If you have no idea, you can refer to the one that Li Jing, the king of pagodas, often held in his hands.
