The envoy of the Ying Country only reacted to the content of Lu Yi's words after a while. He walked forward politely and coughed twice, saying,"Respected Mr. Lu, I hope you understand that trade and the international economy are also our favorite things in the Great British Empire. I heard that there was a balance of 10 million tons of gold in the Fengtian Bank recently. (English)"
"You don't have to care about the origin of this money!”Lu Yi's expression instantly turned cold. His eyes were as firm as a lion's as he stared at the envoy of Country Ying."We have our own source of income, and it's not up to you foreigners to interfere. I only hope that this money can be traded fairly, exchanged for foreign exchange, and exchanged for goods!”
Lu Yi's tough attitude instantly stunned the envoys. All of them widened their eyes and stared at Lu Yi.
Their impression of Lu Yi changed once again. No one dared to treat this steel-like man in front of them as a weak Chang Kaishen, Yan Xishan, or Wu Peifu.
Lu Yi was definitely the most unyielding Chinese person in the history of their diplomatic work!
Country Ying's envoy looked a little embarrassed. In the world before World War II, Country Ying's status had not been completely replaced by the United States. Country Ying was still the world overlord. In today's meeting, Country Ying's envoy was also the boss! This was the first time that someone had broken his heart so easily!
That's right, the envoy of the Ying Country wanted to prove the legitimacy of this money. It would be best if he could get this money over without spending any money. This was a whole thousand tons of gold!
Even the wealthy countries were extremely envious of this sum of money. Even the entire Great British Empire's annual financial surplus did not have so much money.
However, he did not expect Lu Yi to keenly see through his thoughts at a glance and put an end to his thoughts with the most resolute attitude.
Left with no choice, the envoy of the Ying Country could only settle for the second best option.
"Mr. Lu, I think you've misunderstood us. We have no intention of interfering with Manzhou's financial freedom. It's just a prerequisite for trade. We want to know the source of this money. Country Ying's envoy put on a sad expression, as if he was really hurt by Lu Yi's words.
Hehe, Lu Yi sneered in his heart. These foreigners were used to bullying the Chinese.
However, if you don't have eyes and bully me, then you're thinking too much.
"Mr. Charlemagne, I hope you understand how important this is to both of us, and how important it is to the interests of the British Empire in the Far East!" Lu Yi said seriously. (English)"
"I, Lu Yi, can promise that within three years, the Manzhou Free Government will definitely become an Asian regime that will compete with Japan for dominance in East Asia! English)"
"Moreover, you have to know that Manzhou is right under Su Hong's stomach. The distance between the tanks and Moscow is only three days! (English)"
"I think you understand how much this will affect the interests of the Great British Empire in the Far East! (English)"
Within three years, they would compete for Japan's international status!
Suppress Su Hongguo!
When Lu Yi said this, it was as if a bomb had been dropped on the scene. The expressions of all the envoys began to change rapidly. Some of them even began to tremble with excitement.
The British and American envoys widened their eyes in shock and looked at each other. They never expected Lu Yi to have such courage!
He actually publicly announced that he would suppress Japan and Su Hongguo within three years!
Japan was one of the new superpowers and was now considered a strong country internationally. Su Hong was an old strong country that could compete with the western world!
Then, the two envoys lowered their heads and pondered for a moment before their eyes widened again.
They suddenly realized that Lu Yi did not seem to be incapable of doing it!
With the economic infusion of 1,000 tons of gold, the economy of the three northeastern provinces immediately became lively. The Qingyun Stronghold was almost the popular support of the people in the northeast. Moreover, they also heard that Lu Yi had created a Songhua River industrial zone and had already started production.
With the economy, the people, and the industry, the three eastern provinces...
Lu Yi was definitely not joking!
The expression of the Japanese envoy who was present turned extremely ugly. His face was hesitant as he stepped forward and shouted quickly,"Mr. Lu! I hope you remember your friendship with His Majesty the Emperor. The reason why you are in charge of the three eastern provinces is because His Majesty the Emperor respects you! (English)"
In fact, the reason was actually because of the internal political struggle in Japan, which allowed Lu Yi to pick up the loophole. However, at this time, the Japanese envoy could only use the friendship of the Emperor to gain face.
Lu Yi squeezed out a fake smile and said to the Japanese envoy,"Of course, Mr. Minister. Of course, I will not forget the friendship of His Majesty the Emperor, but there is nothing wrong with a fair competition between the two countries, is there? (English)"
The Japanese envoy had nothing to say. He cursed Lu Yi in his heart for being a villain who took advantage of the empire's loopholes. That was why he could be so smug here, but he did not dare to be impudent in front of Lu Yi. He could only say in a deep voice," Mr. Lu makes sense."
"Haha, Lu, I think we should talk about business now. If you want to exchange gold for foreign exchange, the credibility of our American government is absolutely trustworthy. (English)"
As soon as the two of them finished speaking, the tall and enthusiastic American envoy with a big beard strode to Lu Yi's side and said in a sly and profiteer tone.
In terms of trade and business, the happiest country was the United States. This country relied on trade and isolation to get to where it was today.
In the eyes of the Americans, only business could maximize their interests.
Lu Yi smiled. The people he wanted to cooperate with today were the Americans. Now that they were finally here, he reached out and shook hands with the American envoy."Hello, you're the most sensible person in today's meeting. You immediately grasped the key to the problem. (English)"
The moment the US envoy made his move, all the envoys immediately panicked. They had come today to negotiate trade and fight for the country's benefits. In the end, most of the discussion was about Lu Yi himself, but the shrewd Americans had intercepted them!
"Mr. Lu! Our French Franc is also a very strong currency in the world. It is very beneficial for the Manchurian government to use it as foreign exchange!”
"Mr. Lu, I swear on the reputation of the Great British Empire that if you want to start international trade, the Great British Empire will definitely be your most loyal partner!”
"Our German Mark has been steadily appreciating! Mr. Lu, you should invest in the future! (English)"
This time, all the envoys were like fish that had smelled blood. They surrounded Lu Yi and raised their hands as they shouted.
Lu Yi smiled. This was the right way to do business. Why talk about international diplomacy?
Zhang Jinghui, Geng Yun, and the others were dumbfounded. They didn't understand English and had no idea what methods their boss had used to make these arrogant Westerners so shocked that they even raised their hands and fought to cooperate with the free government!
Lu Yi glanced at Geng Yun and smiled.""Now that they don't dare to have any ideas about us, you can talk to them. Remember, don't give up a single cent!”
"Gold is currently in high demand internationally!”
Geng Yun shivered and stood up with a whoosh. He said loudly,"Yes, sir! Chief!"
