【145】Condition fulfilled(1/2)
"Queen, why are you angry?"
Long Hao squeezed his eyebrows and said inexplicably with a grievance: "When did I say that I would establish the country in Alas?"
"Um?"
When the queen heard this, she held her anger in her chest and opened her eyes widened: "Not Alaska, where do you want to build a country? Don't tell me, you want to get San Francisco out of the United States duli!"
"San Francisco? I don't have that courage, Queen, calm down, didn't I say it very clearly just now?"
Long Hao stroked his chest and signaled that he was very frightened just now, "This founding of the country is not only asking you to be banned, but also allocate some territory..."
Territory?
Victoria now feels that Long Hao is just a little fox. When talking to him, she must be careful, so she stared at Long Hao's 'pureless' face suspiciously and asked in a deep voice: "What territory?
I have a big appetite, dare to ask for land in front of me, the king of a country?"
The most sensitive thing for a country is land. Victoria made up her mind. If Long Hao couldn't give a reasonable explanation, he would use this reason to knock out half of the conditions he had put forward!
Hum, is it so easy to negotiate with the great Queen Victoria?
"Don't you use that piece of land?"
Seeing the queen's expression, Long Hao raised his eyebrows and felt that he could no longer act like a "soft master", otherwise he would have to be seized by this thick-skinned and dark-hearted queen, so he exhaled his nostrils and knocked his fingers at the top of the globe.
"There are no ones in these islands all year round and the climate is harsh. You give it to me, what's wrong?"
Victoria narrowed her eyes and looked closer, and she was surprised to reach the peak!
What is the territory you mean by Long Hao? It turns out that it is several large islands located in northern Canada, located in the Arctic Circle!
Greenland, Elsmere Island, Devon Island, Banks Island... and Victoria Island named after the Queen!
Except for Greenland, the rest of these islands are really barren. They are cold and wild animals are rampant. Is there any residents on them?
Victoria stroked her forehead and turned her eyes back and forth on the globe and Long Hao's face more than ten times. She was so confused that she almost felt dizzy: "Boy, what's your idea? I know these islands, and the conditions are even better than Alaska.
It’s ten times worse, and it’s very expensive to survive on it! What are you going to do?”
"I said it all, it is used to build a country! I didn't say it, I want to move to it!" Long Hao looked helpless. If the same words were to be said n times, the queen's understanding was really weak!
The generation gap...
"It's really...Kinguo?"
Victoria was still worried. Her eyes turned: "There will be no gold mine above it, right?"
"puff……"
Long Hao almost fell: "Queen, you really dare to think about it. I have never been to those islands. How could I know if there is a gold mine on it... Besides, even if there is such a harsh environment, gold can be dug out.
, Can it be transported out? Really, I just admired this globe. When my eyes lit up, I discovered these small islands for the first time…”
"Really...no?"
"No. Do you want me to swear to God?"
Long Hao looked bitter: "I just want to build a country? You will definitely not give me other land on this globe. I looked around and picked out so many places where birds don't poop.
In this way, you have to doubt me. It really hurts my fragile heart... If you don’t trust each other, Queen, you’d better let me go earlier. Don’t talk about this cooperation that will cheat the United States, it will definitely not last long!"
"It's really just for... to establish a country?"
Victoria still did not completely dispel her doubts, "You want to establish a country. What is the purpose?"
"Is this obvious? With your celestial wisdom, Queen, I want me to explain it to you?" Long Hao said in surprise.
"Ahem, I just want to hear your thoughts. Based on my years of experience in power, see if there are any mistakes in this..."
"Okay, please correct her axe..."
Long Hao lowered his head, endured his smile, then raised his face, and said seriously: "To hold back the pace of development of the United States, this proposition looks broad, and it is even more difficult to do it. I, Long Hao, is a small person, by virtue of
Only with some luck can we have some foundation in Alaska. To be honest, I am very satisfied if I can lead my compatriots and live a stable life... If I want to attract the attention of the United States, I will definitely need a strong supporter and an international one.
The title recognized by the emperor! Founding of the country is nothing but for this title!”
"My support is naturally the British Empire led by Her Majesty, but the Queen is obviously unwilling to tear her face away from the United States, so this newly established country is a buffer, and it is also an excellent springboard for Alaska to jump out of the United States' mastery!"
"With this country and the internationally recognized sovereignty of duli, Her Majesty can intervene in many things with justification! Why do you say this? It's very simple, because the king of this country is the hereditary count of Britain..."
..”“When hearing this, Victoria's cheeks jumped suddenly, and she felt that Long Hao was still good at taking advantage of her, and she was cheated...
Long Hao glanced at this scene and laughed in his heart, but continued to say, "The earl of his own is bullied, and the queen is naturally justified in coming forward. Many things that are afraid of being criticized by other countries and intervened are natural...
There were actually examples before. Isn’t Canada the territory of Britain before? It was duli, and it was also to restrict the United States. But unfortunately, it is not a monarchy and its relationship with the queen cannot be put on the table, so many times the queen wants to
To help it, the monarchs of other European countries will come over and say a word and secretly restrain them..."
Long Hao was straightforward, but Victoria lowered her head and thought it seriously.
Canada, one of the Commonwealth members, was indeed to constrain the United States at its beginning. The purpose was to make this new country that once abandoned Britain, either died or split. In short, it was to create all the difficulties that could be created.
It has made the United States uneasy all day long, trapped in civil strife, and unable to develop!
During that period, Britain was still fantasizing that after recruiting the army, it would cross the Atlantic Ocean and set foot on the North American continent again, and throw all the reactionary Duli elements into the sea!
However, the situation in Europe has changed day by day. Gradually, Britain was unable to counterattack the North American continent, and the chess piece called "Canada" left behind gradually changed its flavor.
From the violent destruction at the beginning to the economic competition later, Canada is like an increasingly wobbly middle-aged man. He lost his youthful impulse and was beaten up by this masculine handsome man in the United States for a few times.
He raised the white flag of "peaceful development", and recently, he has a tendency to commit to the common ground. The more the United States plays it, the more he wants to twist his butt and throw himself into the furry arms of the United States!
How depressed this made Britain, the initiator?
"You said it right, but it's wrong. The temptation I gave to Canada was too great!"
After Long Hao's speech, Victoria subconsciously agreed with this statement. If there was a monarchy for Canada and the United States dared to send troops to attack Canada, Britain would have the excuse to drive the warships to the east coast of the United States to bomb!
Of course, these are all hindsights. The historical environment and various factors at the time have led to Canada being a paradise for British domestic capitalists to import capital and make profits.
"So. If you have any mistakes, you have to correct them..."
Long Hao seized the opportunity and continued to bewitch: "Her Majesty the Queen. Think about it, you have given me an earl's title anyway, do you still care about letting me be a bare king? No birds want to do that island.
If you stay, you are idle. It is better to use it as support for me than to "the conditions for the Alchemy Greater China have been met". Let me fight against the United States with justifiable reputation! If the United States wants to act roughly against Alaska, my country can protect it morally
, and at a critical moment, don’t you have enough reason to take action?”
"The founding of a country is not a trivial matter!" Victoria still had a hint of clarity in her head. She murmured.
"Hmph, my bottom line is here. If you don't build a country, don't even think I will fight the United States!" Long Hao clasped his fists in his chest, threw a sentence, and turned his head to ignore the queen.
I was so thirsty that I was talking about it. You looked around and looked around. Such courage and the greatest queen in British history really made me blinded... my eyes!
Taking the Queen's line and establishing a country is actually the purpose of Long Hao traveling thousands of miles to the United Kingdom. Therefore, Long Hao will never give in on this principle issue!
"It's not impossible to promise you, but it's a big deal to build a country. You have to give me some time to think about it!"
Long Hao made a fuss, and Victoria quickly said: "...I dare not guarantee you what you can do now, but it is OK to use those islands as your fiefdom to you first!"
"really?"
Long Hao was delighted. The vast uninhabited islands in the Arctic Circle were the most important part of his development strategy. To put it bluntly, he would rather not build a country, but those islands must be earned.
In the bag.
"Greenland cannot do it. It belongs to Denmark. I can decide the rest of the islands, so I will assign it to you now!"
"Great, I want this, this...and this!"
There are advantages to take, how could Long Hao be polite? His fingers were flying, and he immediately clicked on the top of the globe, and almost all the islands in the Arctic Circle except Greenland (of course, the half belonging to the Americas).
Have your own plate.
"Boy, you're so cruel!"
Although they were all uninhabited islands that were frozen for thousands of miles, Victoria was still worried about it. The area of these islands was almost as large as Alaska! It was dragged away by Long Hao, and the queen was unwilling to accept it!
"What are you doing? You can't use it even if you keep it!"
"That won't be cheap for you!"
Victoria was anxious and said the truth. It would be fine if she couldn't see it. Then she would see the territory disappear from her eyes one by one. As the king of a country, she felt like she was cutting her flesh: "You...you have to pay, yes, these fiefs
You have to pay for it!”
Dragon "Alchemy Great China" Hao tilted his hand and almost threw the globe out. He looked at Victoria squintly: "You still want to buy it? The population of these islands will not exceed 100, and there are even decent ports around it.
No, do you have the nerve to ask me to pay for it? Besides, the queen of the British Empire enthroned the territory, and have you ever heard of having to pay for it?”
Victoria's old face turned slightly red, she turned her forehead wrinkles, and said with her neck: "You are a precedent, who made your territory a little bigger this time? Let's do this, I'll give you three small islands for free, and the rest will be one square meter.
I will give me a pound to the British royal family. In this way, I can give you an explanation to everyone."
Let me tell you, who doesn’t know that in Britain now, you are just talking and speaking, who dares to object? Long Hao deeply despises Victoria’s greed for money.
I even donated three drops of the "magic medicine" of Immortal Immortal Dew for free. Are you still competing with me for hundreds of thousands of pounds?
Thick. Face is indeed thick!
Black, heart, really black!
"Can't you be cheaper? One shilling is one square meter? Just think I've donated to the British people!"
