For this purpose, Han Huaiyi is even willing to use DSC as a "deminer" of the US government.

After the Vietnam War, anti-war sentiment in the United States grew stronger, but the government was reluctant to benefit itself, which gave birth to the rapid development of the mercenary industry.

With the support of the petrodollar system, the Americans just print more money, and naturally there are countless evil spirits who are desperate for them.

In this way, it was a wise decision to stop the Star-Spangled Banner from covering the coffin.

This year, the situation was different.

World War I and World War II had not yet broken out, let alone the Vietnam War, so there was no soil for domestic anti-war sentiment to survive.

However, Han Huaiyi believes that he can find another way to create a positive image for DSC under another pretext.

He then arranged for someone to find out about the family of the American who was killed in Panama, and he instructed DSC employees to gain their trust and friendship in the name of avenging them for free.

He then asked the media to write about the frequent killings of Americans outside the Panama Canal Zone.

When he had arranged this, James arrived in San Francisco.

This is James' fifth visit to the coastal city, and every time he comes because of his best partner in the business world, Han Huaiyi.

Since the first flight of the aircraft in New York, the two have experienced the ground aviation from scratch, the aircraft carrier program of the Hainan Airlines, and have formed a real community of interests between them until today.

In the process, he was not a pure taker, and he often gave back to the cause of New Rome and the PTR in particular.

Because of this, Han Huaiyi and him gradually became friends.

This time, James was the same.

Of course, he also has his own personal goals.

After getting off the plane, the two were not in a hurry to talk about things, Han Huaiyi invited him to eat a steak and let him rest for a few hours.

By 6 p.m., the sky had begun to darken, and the two began to talk in earnest.

Location, two kilometers north of Liberty City, is located in Han Huaiyi's new house at the southwestern tip of the peninsula.

It is a modern, minimalist room with a spacious 180-degree view, with a view of the Pacific Ocean and the mouth of San Francisco, and the famous "Golden Gate Bridge" in the living room with a cup of coffee.

Of course, in the autumn of 1907, Josef Strauss, the designer of the Golden Gate Bridge, was just a child.

"Really choose a place, Charlie, I can see your life pattern from here." James was full of praise for the view.

The last rays of the setting sun shone on his blackened hair, and the old man's eyes were full of envy for the young Charlie's open life.

"The seaside villa you saw on the way here is a gift I left for you, and I'm thinking about what you'll bring me now, and then decide whether to give it to you or not."

James was speechless, "What a bastard." ”

Then the two looked at each other and laughed.

"I can spend my holidays and retire here." After he said one more sentence, he said to Han Huaiyi: "You know the murder of Americans in Panama, and it doesn't stop there. Before opening the Panama Canal, we were facing the potential forces of Gran Colombia and Britain and France, but it was useless to rely on the military alone, so the military council wanted the DSC to come out. ”

"Is the pay in cash? After hearing that Dewey had raised this possibility, I had already made some arrangements. Han Huaiyi didn't hide anything from James.

"Sharp intuition!"

Although James said this, he was not surprised by Han Huaiyi's reaction, because this is Charlie.

He said, "At present, the Panamanian side has repeatedly asked for an increase in the rental price of the original contract, but we all think that it is better to give you this money than to give it to them, causing more and more uncontrollable problems, after all, there are many Chinese workers there, and we know that you have the same status as the emperor in the hearts of the Chinese." ”

"I'm not a savior, and I'm not interested in cash, and I'm willing to do it if the U.S. government needs me to go ahead, but I have one premise, and that's to participate in the operating profits of the Panama Canal."

James smiled wryly, "This cake already has two owners. ”

"But isn't one of them dishonest? I think the management structure should be like this, the US government operates and manages it, the DSC is responsible for the safety of the canal and the management party, and the Panamanian side is enough to collect rent as a landlord. ”

"You want to replace them first?"

"Arranging Chinese immigration, so that the sentiment of the people in Panama can be concentrated on the Chinese, DSC is willing to bear the charge of suppressing discontent, and the US government can be a clean manager, this is my idea."

James sighed, "That would be a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood." ”

"The Qing court is in turmoil, and the people are struggling to make a living, so instead of moving my countrymen to the United States and causing a conflict of interest with the Americans, it is better for my compatriots to squeeze out the natives of the south. And the Chinese will only be allies of the United States. How about this prospect? ”

Han Huaiyi said here and added, "If I can, I will arrange for someone to take the entire territory of Brazil first, and at this stage, the DSC supported by the PTR is enough to compete with other forces in the whole of Brazil." The premise is that the Navy will give us sufficient logistical and transportation support. ”

After James listened to Han Huaiyi's strategy, he stood up excitedly.

Because he understands that as long as Han Huaiyi can do it, he will go down in history.

Han Huaiyi also stood up, and he walked to his side and reminded him again: "If the military council can support Cuba, then the entire Caribbean Sea will become another Gulf of Mexico." ”

"Your strategy is too big, but it's doable."

"Europe messes with theirs, and the New World does its own. There will be times when they will have no time to take care of themselves, but before that time comes, we must settle first. ”

"Do you want to be involved in Cuba?" James asked suddenly.

Han Huaiyi grinned: "Everything I have is only in exchange for part of the equity of the Panama Canal." ”

"How much?"

"On the premise of not shaking the interests of the United States, I will give as much as I can. By the way, the DSC will be ready to accept the jurisdiction of the command of the US forces in Panama. ”

It was a rather sincere expression, and James laughed out loud, "What else could you ask for?" ”

"There is another condition, the US military has the obligation and responsibility to protect the interests of the Chinese. We are not a greedy people, and we are willing to sweat to open up a lifeline connecting the two oceans, but we need to be cared for and respected as allies. ”

"In the case of DSC struggling?"

"No, we are family at all times and in all places."

"Understood. Let me tell you, as you know, the canal project is not going well these days, because the workers have to deal not only with the brutal weather, but also with the hostility of the capricious locals. Among them, the incumbent President Amado, after accepting the help of the United States to become independent, seems to want to change his face and become a hero of his country. ”
