    Chief Su's expression was very bad. In his view, Jiang Dongyeol was simply treating him like a child to fool him. The demand for weapons and supplies was constantly changing, and after Korea became independent, he would not forget your love for our people.  Of kindness, this kind of big talk and empty words will only make pigs laugh in future generations.

    Thinking of this, Su Rui decided not to go around in circles with this guy anymore, and said directly: "Lieutenant Colonel Jiang Donglie, can you be more specific? How will you repay us?"

    "Ahthis?"

    Jiang Donglie was also shocked for a moment. He didn't expect that the foreign general in front of him had such a straightforward personality, and he even asked about the reward in person.  Faced with Su Rui's unceremonious approach of asking for favors face to face, Jiang Dong was not prepared at all, and was choked to the point of being speechless for a moment.

    In Jiang Donglie¡¯s opinion, Chinese people are the most face-conscious.  This can be seen from China's thousands of years of history. The loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness advocated by Confucianism have been highly praised by rulers of all dynasties.  And generally speaking, the imperial court was very tolerant to the outside world, which was in sharp contrast to its harshness and cruelty internally.

    Taking North Korea as an example, the Battle of North Korea during the Wanli Period of the Ming Dynasty was an international war that took place on the Korean Peninsula more than 300 years ago.  Japanese history books divide the Wanli Korean War into two wars, called the Battle of Bunroku and the Battle of Keichang.  Korean history books call it the Imjin Patriotic War.  The entire war started in the 20th year of Wanli (1592) and ended in the 26th year of Wanli (1598), lasting seven years.  In this war, the Ming Dynasty "used all its strength at home and abroad."  Hundreds of thousands of troops were used and nearly 8 million taels of silver were spent. After repeated wars and peace, the war was finally won with great difficulty and the Japanese were driven back to their hometown.

    The battle was won.  Naturally, this war was written about in great detail by the North Koreans.  But how did the North Koreans tout their role in this war?  For example, its greatness is just like in another time and space when their great leader General Jin shot down a Yankee fighter plane with a 38-type rifle, which is enough to write a strong mark in the history of world war.

    The battle was over, and the Ming Dynasty had paid eight million taels of silver and suffered tens of thousands of casualties.  It stands to reason that North Korea paid such a high price to help the Koreans win this war, so there must be some benefits, right?  But the emperors and ministers of the Ming Dynasty did not ask for any favors from the Korean past at that time. The greatness of this behavior was simply unmatched by a saint. At least Saint Kong knew how to write articles for people when he traveled around the world and was a gunman.  Asking for a few kilograms of corn as royalties, this is what the emperors and ministers of the Ming Dynasty did. If Confucius came back from the dead and saw it, he would be so ashamed that he would die again.

    Since then, North Koreans have developed a perception that China is the big brother of North Korea.  It is only natural for the big brother to help his younger brother, and there is no need to repay him.

    And this kind of knowledge has been passed down from generation to generation. In view of this, both Jiang Dongyeol and General Kim Yingshan, the commander of the Korean Anti-Japanese Allied Forces who remotely commanded from the northeast, think this is normal.  When the younger brother has no money, shouldn't he have to pay the older brother a favor?  As for paying back the moneyit's really emotionally hurtful to talk about this kind of thing.

    Seeing Jiang Donglie's surprised look, Su Rui frowned even more.

    Suri said nothing.  Jiang Donglie was stunned on the spot.  The atmosphere was tense and about to end. Yu Xueying couldn't help but secretly thought something was wrong when she saw it. She quickly smoothed things over and said: "Lieutenant Colonel Jiang Donglie, since you have asked us to provide you with food, supplies, weapons and other supplies,  , then it can¡¯t be in vain, and our supplies are also very tight now. If you don¡¯t have an explanation, I¡¯m afraid"

    Yu Xueying didn¡¯t finish her words.  But the meaning is very obvious. Everyone's things are blown by strong winds from time to time. If you want to be so empty-handed and take away things with just a few words, it is impossible.

    "What? You still have to pay the price?" Jiang Donglie was completely dumbfounded at this time. This sentence clearly exceeded his understanding of Chinese people. Aren't Chinese people good at face?  We have already talked about the friendship between the two countries and called you big brother. Why don't you give us anything?  How can an elder brother ask for a favor from his younger brother? This makes no sense?

    "Well, Director Yu is right." At this time, Su Rui also spoke. At this time, he picked up the tea cup, lifted the lid, slowly took a sip of tea, and then said: "Lieutenant Colonel Jiang Donglie, don't blame me.  We are stingy. I am also a villain before being a gentleman. There is no free lunch in this world. You have to be prepared to pay as much as you want to ask for. Getting something for nothing is impossible, not to mention that our country is currently suffering from  Even with the Japanese invasion, I can¡¯t give you a large amount of aid for no reason, don¡¯t you think so?¡±

    "Yes you are absolutely right!"

    At this time, Jiang Donglie's head was already sweating. This timeBut he came under Jin Yingshan's order. If he couldn't get enough aid to go back, he would be in trouble. When he thought of Jin Yingshan's gloomy face and eyes that seemed to be choosing people to eat, he also thought of what he had vowed before arriving.  After promising Jin Yingshan that he would be able to get a large amount of supplies back, he immediately panicked and looked at Su Rui and said in a pleading tone.

    "General Su, tell me, what price do you want us to pay to provide us with the military supplies we need! But I have to tell you in advance. Our anti-Japanese coalition forces are very poor. In order to fight against Japanese aggression  Many of our soldiers don¡¯t even have rifles, but we don¡¯t have any money to give you.¡±

    Suri smiled. As soon as he heard this sentence, he knew that half of his goal had been achieved.  He leaned back comfortably on the chair and then said with satisfaction: "The word price is used well. I have said before that there is no love for no reason in this world, and there is no free lunch. Any idea of ??getting something for nothing is a waste."  of.

    Of course, I know you are not rich yet, so be it, I will not ask you for money, on the contrary, if you need funds, I can even lend you a sum, of course, the interest will be calculated.  .  "

    "Then what are you doing"

    Jiang Donglie was puzzled. He didn¡¯t understand why Commander Su in front of him still put on such a posture after rejecting him. Was he just perfunctory?

    Seeing Jiang Donglie's surprised look, Su Rui smiled secretly in his heart. What he just said was indeed making fun of the special envoy sent by North Korea.  Originally, Su Rui really didn't have any thoughts about North Korea, which was thousands of miles away, but as the saying goes, if you don't take what God has given you, you will be blamed for it. Now that people are eager to come to your door, it would be wrong if you continue to be pretentious.  Woolen cloth.

    Thinking of this, Su Rui said slowly: "Lieutenant Colonel Jiang Donglie, before you start to put forward conditions, can you tell me how many people there are in your Korean Anti-Japanese Alliance now?"

    "This" Jiang Donglie hesitated, a look of shame appeared on his face at first, but then disappeared immediately, and then immediately said: "General Su, our Anti-Japanese Alliance is currently the largest anti-Japanese team in North Korea. There are currently a total of  There are more than two thousand people, each of them is a brave warrior who can sacrifice his life for North Korea's independence anytime and anywhere. Our biggest problem at present is the lack of weapons and supplies"

    "That's it. If that's the case, then I'll tell you straight." Su Rui interrupted Jiang Donglie rudely: "Lieutenant Colonel Jiang Donglie, let me tell you the truth, you really have too few people. You  Tell me, your troops, which number less than 3,000 and are short of clothing and ammunition, cannot have much effect on the tens of thousands of troops stationed in North Korea. Moreover, North Korea is far away from us in Taiyuan. If we want to support you, it will require a lot of energy and effort.  The price is very high, do you understand?¡±

    " Repeatedly emphasizing one's own difficulties is one of the most common strategies in the business world in later generations. Su Ruier, who grew up in that environment, has witnessed that it is self-taught.

    "Well, I can understand this." Jiang Donglie had never experienced this kind of method before, and he couldn't help but nodded after hearing this.

    "Well, very good." Su Rui nodded with satisfaction: "In this case, I might as well say it directly. Judging from the current situation of your anti-Japanese coalition forces, it is not an exaggeration to say that you are poor and useless. You have nothing to do now.  It appeals to me, what do you think?"

    "Thisis indeed the case." Jiang Donglie lowered his head in shame.

    Seeing Jiang Donglie's appearance, Su Rui continued: "If that's the case, then so be it. I can promise to provide you with weapons, food and other material support, and I can also support you in becoming the only legitimate government of post-war North Korea, but  "

    Having said this, Su Rui glanced at Jiang Donglie who was looking happy, and then said slowly: "And our conditions are not many. If your anti-Japanese coalition becomes the legal government of North Korea after the war, you must agree to both of us."  Things. First, after the war you want to lease Jeju Island to us as a garrison. The period is tentatively set at one hundred years. Second, you want to open up the mineral deposits in your own territory, and our companies have priority.  Mining rights and logging rights, can you agree?¡±

    "What? Lease Jeju Island?"

    Jiang Donglie was shocked when he heard this.  Where is Jeju Island?  No matter how stupid Jiang Dongyeol is, he knows that Jeju Island is the largest island in North Korea, with a total area of ??1,825 kilometers.  It is only more than 300 kilometers away from the mainland of North Korea and only more than 500 kilometers from the mainland of Japan. In other words, if Jeju Island is leased to China, it will be equivalent to grabbing the throats of North Korea and Japan.  In other words, in the future, as long as China is unhappy, it can control North Korea's life at any time. Although Jiang Donglie's military level is not very high, he also knows that the taste will never be pleasant.

    See the faceJiang Donglie became very ugly, but Su Rui just sat on the chair and looked at him with a half-smile, with a very comfortable expression
