After taking Jiang Chen off the plane, the Moro side is naturally a good life hospitality.
The welcoming team is the extended version of the black Lincoln, and the hotel where you stay is the Ambassador Hotel. Passing through the emerald green lawn, under the welcome of the guard of honor, they stepped on the pure white stone steps. The marble columns stood solemnly in a row, quite like the charm of the Pantheon in Paris.
The former rebel flag fluttered in the sky with a national flag, so the prestige really surprised Jiang Chen.
But then he could n’t help but talk, what a real corruption!
Although the per capita income is only $ 800, this does not prevent the warlords who rule Mindanao from living a petty bourgeoisie. I have been fighting guerrillas in the mountains with the Philippine government for decades, and now I have finally fulfilled my long-cherished wish. How can I control my own hands and pursue a better life.
According to the requirements of the Future People Group, the Moro State defines the type of government as a democratically elected government in the Constitution to block the tongue of Western countries. But at the same time, they also wrote a clause in the constitution, special regulations in wartime, which stipulates that the term of office of the president during the war is infinitely extended.
By the way, the President and the Supreme Commander are both General Santos.
Jiang Chen does not care how Santos exploits his people.
All he needs to be responsible for are the employees of the Future Group, the Star Ring trade taxi fighters, and the people of the new country on the Panu Islands. So in the face of the pleasing government of Moro, he accepted it very calmly.
There are as many as 10 maids who are responsible for taking care of his life, and all appearances are without exception. The decoration of the room is extravagant, and the “daily items” such as fine wine and cigars displayed in the display cabinet are not only international famous brands, but I am afraid that Santos himself can not afford such luxury.
At the same time with the generosity of the Moro government, Jiang Chen couldn’t help but think about it. Does Santos have anything to ask him?
In the evening, Santos hosted a banquet in the auditorium of the Ambassador Hotel to entertain Jiang Chen.
In addition to the protagonist Jiang Chen, all the visiting guests are head and face dignitaries on Mindanao. Among them, the majority are Israeli military personnel, as well as some Moro real estate developers and gold mine owners. The visiting female guests were mostly relatives of these officers and businessmen. Jiang Chen noticed that many young girls looked at themselves with fiery eyes …
It’s just that the daughters of these aristocrats are really beautiful, and Jiang Chen has no interest at all.
The banquets were staggered at the banquet, and melodious symphony was played on the stage, and the guests were very happy to talk.
After three drinks, Santos sitting next to Jiang Chen suddenly smiled.
Seeing his expression, Jiang Chen knew that this guy must have something else to trouble himself.
“Mr. Jiang, our enemies have been restless on the border recently.”
I have to say that this Santos is much smoother than the previous five big and three thick guys. When he came to think of it, he also understood that the rule of the country cannot rely on muscles. This opening used Jiang’s “enemy” to pull Jiang Chen’s position to his side. Moreover, the tone of the speech seemed to be discussing military conditions with allies, and he would not lose face in front of his men.
Although I saw this, Jiang Chen did not take his careful thoughts into his heart. He picked up his glass and sipped it down and asked casually.
“Oh? Is there any action on the Philippines?”
“The Aquino government promulgated a new conscription bill and declared that it would reorganize the decadent army and expand the army by 100,000.”
“Aquino? Didn’t that guy take the blame and resign?” Jiang Chen frowned.
“The one who resigned was Aquino III, this is the new Aquino IV …”
Okay, IV.
Jiang Chen reached out and squeezed his sore brows with drunkenness.
He does n’t understand these monkeys very well …
Carefully looked at Jiang Chen, Santos continued.
“In addition, the Philippine side also announced that it will build a modern army with the help of the United States and introduce M1a1 main battle tanks and Apache gunships and other vehicles …”
“M1a1?” Jiang Chen’s eyes moved slightly, his finger lightly tapped the wine glass, and his lips flicked contemptuously, “Can they afford it?”
How many bananas can I buy for an M1a1 main battle tank?
I heard that Santos also sighed with a frown.
“I do n’t know, the news from our informants in the Philippines is that they seem to have received a huge amount of loans.”
Loan?
Putting down the glass in his hand, Jiang Chen looked strange, and then asked Santos.
“Do you have the exact news about the number of loans and the time of the loan?”
“The amount is about 10 billion US dollars, and the time … about the end of April.” Santos nodded when he exchanged gazes with his intelligence minister and got a positive answer.
At the end of April, it was almost the time when Jiang Chen and the Freemason had a bad relationship. In the future, there will be a crack in the cooperation between Renmin Mining and BHP Mining Group.
10 billion US dollars, so big! The price of an M1A1 tank is only four million US dollars. If the money is used in the army and air force, the Philippines can build a modern army.
In addition to investing in military expansion, Jiang Chen ca n’t think of any other way than to recover investment.
Originally, Jiang Chen did n’t understand why the BHP Group made such a proposal that the future group would never accept. After being refused to renew the contract, it was so calm. Looking at it now, their picture should not be small.
After pondering for a moment, Jiang Chen lightly tapped the glass of wine on the table and asked in a half-joking tone.
“Your military spending should not be used here.”
“How is it possible! Our annual military budget accounts for 15% of GDP, and we are worried that they will tear up the armistice agreement.” Santos quickly replied.
Don’t ask him how much GDP he spends every year on enjoyment. Jiang Chen pondered for a moment and said.
“From tomorrow, the Star Ring Trade will help the Moro State to build a modern army and deal with the regional tensions caused by the expansion of the Philippine Army in the North. You do n’t have to worry about military expenses for a while. To you, the total loan is 5 billion US dollars. “
I heard that Santos could n’t help but look away. The big stones that had been pressed against his chest these days had finally moved away, and he immediately got up to raise his glass and toast Jiang Chen.
“Haha, thank you so much! Our friends, the people of Mindanao will remember your contribution to our revolution!”
After the banquet, I declined the invitation of several ladies and ladies to “visit the boudoir”, and Jiang Chenjing returned straight to the Ambassador Hotel.
Throwing the dress on the hanger, he immediately called Xinghuan Trading and told his decision to aid Moro ’s military modernization to Ivan and Bakari.
After hanging up the phone, Jiang Chen was preparing to change into a bath under the service of a group of maidservants, but the future on his wrist rang again.
Looking at the line on the holographic screen, Jiang Chen froze slightly.
It is actually an international long distance
And from Boston, USA. (To be continued.)
