【512】 Alchemy Kingdom(1/2)
I, Lao Cui, can’t afford to lose that face!
After all, the identity of Ding Ting must always be kept secret on a small scale, and it is difficult to reveal it at today's party congress... This will inadvertently reduce the credit of Cui Yuanlang's group.
"Of course the consumption is huge. In this third-line battle, the pressure of logistical supplies is all on us. I know it well. Don't look at the glory of Zhou Bodang and Sa Wei, but they are all based on our large-scale reserve consumption every day.
Up!"
Long Xiaohu lowered his voice and gestured with his palms: "Cui Tuan, I'm not afraid to tell you the truth. The daily financial consumption during the war was this amount, 3 million US dollars a day. Even now that the war has ceased, the subsequent pensions, maintenance, rewards, etc.
The total cost of waiting is close to 1.5 million US dollars per day. Haha, our Finance Department has been so busy for more than a month that we haven't even slept at all!"
He said he was worried, but Cui Yuanlang felt that there was a sense of pride in the brows of Fatty Long.
Yes, with millions of dollars spent every day, the Finance Academy is really in high spirits!
"Xiaohu, looking at you like this, you shouldn't be short of money!"
Cui Yuanlang thought for a while, but continued to confuse: "I have exact information, secretly, that the federal war funds have been exhausted, and they are looking for loans everywhere! As long as we continue to fight, it will only take one month, no, half
If only a few months are enough, we can capture another four, no, six states. By then, less than half of the land in the United States will be ours!"
The prospect described by Cui Yuanlang is very tempting, and it seems that you can still eat it, it is a real temptation.
In the First World War, the land equivalent to half of the Qing Dynasty was swallowed up, and it was still in a foreign country. If this great achievement could be achieved, it would not even be comparable to the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, right?
"Haha, as the old saying goes, it doesn't matter what I say, I'm just a money manager who decides how to spend money. Well, it's the young master!"
Long Xiaohu shook his head. He was in charge of the Finance Institute, and he knew the direction of funds in the past few days very well. He could see the pattern from behind the palm of his hand. From the current situation, the young master might be thinking more about truce and peace.
Just think about it, if the war continues, will the U.S. Federation become angry?
Not to mention whether we can borrow war loans from Europe, just look at the lengthening of our own front. For every kilometer of growth, our financial pressure will increase several times!
No matter how rich the young master is, he can't afford such consumption!
Just accept it as soon as you see fit, that’s what we’re talking about...
While Cui Yuanlang and Long Xiaohu were talking, the lights in the dome of the auditorium suddenly dimmed, and a beam of light hit the dark podium, and the hall immediately became quiet.
Needless to say, the person who likes this way of attracting attention is naturally the former Earl of Beihai and now the King of Bei Island. Young Master Long Haolong!
Long Hao appeared in a simple formal suit with a low-key color. However, although it was a formal suit, the clothes produced by Zhongshan Soul were naturally not tacky. Under the background of the aperture, the original young boy has now become an angry person.
The person in power!
Even several confidants who were familiar with Long Hao were shocked when they saw this scene. They secretly exclaimed: "Hey, the young master has grown up, and he can no longer treat him as a child."
Coming out with Long Hao was Melissa. She was half a step behind. She was dressed in a gorgeous dress and silver high heels, which showed her nobility and charm at the same time. Standing together with Long Hao, they really looked like a matchless pair.
In the current situation, Princess Melissa is suitable to accompany Long Hao. The other beauties, such as Yuan'er, Hong Xiangling and other beauties, are less qualified.
After all, they are a serious king and queen. Although it is not uncommon for Long Hao to be a foreign aristocrat, under the current world situation, this identity can still intimidate and win people's hearts.
If you don't use it, you won't use it.
Melissa's dress today was carefully thought out, with as many feminine elements on her body as possible. Standing on the rostrum, her feminine style is fully displayed... This is also the beauty's painstaking effort, in order to set off Long Hao's prestige.
.
In the past year, it was Melissa who mostly gave orders instead of Long Hao. Now, taking the opportunity of this party congress, it is time to announce that the supreme power is back on track!
After showing her face, Melissa walked off the stage obediently, leaving the main stage to Long Hao alone.
Long Hao didn't care at all. He lowered his hands amidst the overwhelming applause from the crowd and said with a smile: "Long time no see, everyone! I have three sentences to say today. Just now was the first sentence. Okay, I'm done."
After he finished speaking, he spread his hands, shrugged, and raised his lips. He waited for a long time before the people below him reacted, and burst into laughter.
Long Hao's joke, which seemed very common in later generations, is very fresh at this moment. After everyone laughed, the invisible pressure in their hearts could not help but be relieved a little. People with quick thinking can't help but secretly praise in their hearts: The young master has not only matured in appearance, but also adjusted the atmosphere.
, my ability to control the situation has also greatly improved! What a blessing to us!
After the joke is finished, it is not false, and then it is time to get down to business.
"I am very relieved to see our party flourishing... There are two main topics today, which are related to each other. Let me talk about it directly. The first is about the war with the United States, and the second is about the country of the North Island.
After its establishment, the organization will be divided and everyone’s responsibilities will be..."
Long Hao's words condensed the relaxed atmosphere again, and the air in the entire auditorium sank.
The two issues are not trivial, and they are quite important. They are the matters that all the Dragon Scale Party members present are most concerned about!
Needless to say, whether to fight or stop fighting with the United States depends on Long Hao's decision, but one thing is for sure, this time, a layer of skin must be scraped off the Americans!
As for the settings after the establishment of the North Island Kingdom, compared with the American strategy, it can attract the attention of many party members.
The reason is so simple that it is self-evident. People are not saints, but animals with power. Even the sage Confucius is not exempt from vulgarity.
When the country of Beidao was established, Long Hao was the king, and those present were the founding fathers!
However, there are also three, six or nine levels of heroes. Who is the prince? Who is the prince? Who is the lowest official? These are all questions!
It is conceivable that if the arrangement is not good, these people will inevitably have resentment in their hearts, which may affect Long Hao's foundation.
To be honest, Long Hao suddenly brought up such a sensitive issue. Long Bo in the audience was also a little uneasy, but he was still confident that with the young master's wisdom and ability, since he dared to say this in public, it would be natural.
The perfect solution.
"Ahem. Let's talk about the war with the United States first. Everyone, do you think we should continue to fight, or should we stop it when things get better?"
Long Hao raised his palms up, indicating that everyone could speak enthusiastically and brainstorm ideas.
"Fight, of course we have to fight. Now we have just paid back our share of what they hit us, and we have also confiscated a lot of interest!"
"I think it would be better not to fight. After all, the United States is also a big country with profound national strength. It is just a temporary embarrassment at this time and the turnover is not working well. If the fight continues, it may be too much and not enough!"
"If you ask me, it depends on the outcome of the negotiations. Didn't Li Enfu bring a bunch of Su Qin, Zhang Yi, and Li Shiqi? If the Yankees' apology is sincere enough, we will stop. Otherwise, we will break into Washington and kill him while he is sick.
life, and captured their president alive!"
…
This is the good thing about a newly born political party. No matter what grievances there are secretly, they can still speak freely on the surface.
Long Hao actually had a resolution long ago and called on everyone to speak out and express their opinions. He just collected everyone's opinions and summarized how the next meeting can better convince the public.
After all, Long Hao didn't want to be too obviously dictatorial.
"I have decided. Regardless of the outcome of the negotiation team, we must cease the war. Except for Viscount Savvy who asked him to continue to put pressure on the U.S. Navy, the remaining soldiers returned to Bajia. Including Alaska, Zhou Bodang was in
In ten days, we will lead the soldiers there and return to Bajia by boat!"
Long Hao set the tone with one sentence: "The United States is still the United States under federal rule. We will not occupy the four major state capitals such as California. As for Alaska, well, we will not issue a statement to merge with the country of the North Island for the time being."
Long Hao's decision was beyond the expectations of most people.
Some thought there would be a ceasefire, but no one thought that the young master's decision would be so 'conservative'!
Only Canada will be left, and the four western states will be eliminated?
Since Alaska is so close to the Arctic Circle, shouldn't it be annexed?
Such a bottom line for concessions is extremely obedient. Just kidding, if people in the White House find out about it now, it will definitely have a fatal impact on the negotiating team.
Maybe we won’t even get compensation!
However, the smart people quickly figured out that since Long Hao revealed this "large-scale" bottom line, he would definitely get a replacement equivalent to the value of the abandoned land from the negotiation table.
After all, the four western states are now under the full control of Long Hao's army, so it is not too difficult to become independent from the United States.
Next, what Long Hao said made the surprise continue.
First, change the name of the country. The name "North Island Country" is too rustic. Long Hao came up with a new one: Alchemy Country!
This name is really jaw-dropping, and there are waves of thunder on the head... It seems that this name is even more tacky, right?
And it’s the land of a rich man!
Second, the Alchemy Kingdom currently only has two legal territories, one is Bajia (it will be separated from Mexico after being leased for a long time), and the other is the archipelago in the Arctic Circle that no one has been to except Long Hao.
Third, the citizens of the Alchemy Country will not be measured based on Chinese or the top three nationalities in the country, but will be measured based on the contribution point system that has been implemented in Xiajia for almost a year. Those with a contribution score of more than 100 points will automatically become Alchemists.
After that, if your contribution points are not less than 250 points for five consecutive years, you will become a permanent citizen!
As for the children born to Alchemist citizens, I’m sorry, no matter whether you become a citizen before or after you become a citizen, your children will not be able to directly enjoy the benefits of becoming an Alchemist citizen!
In other words, the term household registration is completely invalid in Alchemy Country.
If you want to become a citizen, your birthplace is not important. Doing practical things and making contributions are the important thing!
This point also applies to Long Hao’s descendants!!
Fourth, the Alchemy Congress accepted Alaska as its de facto colony, but in a legal sense, Alaska still belonged to the United States. After all, without a colony, it would be too embarrassed to be called a big country on this earth.
…
Long Hao's suggestions, or administrative instructions, were thrown out one by one like a stream of water, leaving no one here with time to digest them!
Let’s not talk about the underlying reasons for the armistice with the United States. The setting of the Alchemy Country alone is surprising enough!
Is this still a country in the traditional sense?
Why do you feel that in order to become a citizen, the requirements are so strict and the standards are so high? Doesn’t the young master not want to attract the three major citizens from the country? Or maybe he comes here because of his reputation and has a certain status in the United States and even Europe.
Are you a compatriot of Chinese descent?
To be continued...
