After the first debate, Hoover returned to the Republican campaign headquarters in Washington, D.C., to be greeted with warm congratulations from his staff.

"Sir, you are simply amazing!"

"James Cox was beaten to the ground—"

"It's the best debate I've ever heard—"

"Thank you, thank you—" Hoover smiled and shook hands warmly with everyone, not to mention the best debate, Hoover was still very satisfied with his performance.

Back in the office, Mike Carlisle was waiting for Hoover.

Mike Carlisle is Hoover's big benefactor, and since Hoover decided to run for election, Mike Carlisle has donated $5.5 million to the Hoover team, the largest donation to Hoover of any enterprise in the United States.

"Well done Herbert!" Mike Carlisle gave Hoover a strong hug.

"Thank you Mike, but it's not enough, we have to keep up the good work." Hoover wanted to take advantage of the victory, and in the era of no television network, the attitude of members of Congress was enough to determine the direction of the campaign.

In another time and space, Harding, most of his campaign was conducted in his hometown of Marion.

Hoover and Harding have a huge advantage, not only did they have the strength to conduct a national lecture tour, but they also received close cooperation from the American media, including radio and print media, who were more inclined to pay attention to the people's livelihood.

"Hehe, of course, this is what the Lord entrusted me to pass on to you." Mike Carlyle placed a check on the table and gently pushed it to Hoover.

Hoover picked it up, and the check had a series of zeros on it, making it look dizzying.

$5 million!

This is the largest single donation to date for the Hoover team.

"Thank you, Lord, for me—no, I'll send a telegram to him later." When Hoover saw the numbers, his heartbeat almost missed a beat, what is the concept of five million, and the cost of the "Tennessee" class battleship is only 22 million.

Roque invested so much in Hoover, and the return he wanted must be huge, which Hoover was not very worried about.

When American companies want to open up the Commonwealth market, Roque also wants to open up the American market.

The United States adjusted its trade policy after the world war, increased import tariffs, reduced export tariffs, protected American businesses, free trade?

Hehe!

At present, the United States does not have an advantage at all in the field of high technology, and represents the pinnacle of modern industry in automobiles and aircraft, and southern Africa has a huge advantage.

After the end of the world war, southern Africa poached a lot of high-quality talents from Europe, and now the large enterprises in southern Africa, almost every one has set up a technology research and development department, and the universities in southern Africa have finally got rid of the embarrassing situation of lack of talents, and even the state of Orange has established the University of Orange, and the faculty is actually very good.

Given another 20 years, Southern Africa will have even greater technological superiority.

Once Hoover is elected president of the United States, Hoover will adjust the foreign trade policy of the United States and give proper consideration to southern Africa.

"The Lord has promised that once you are elected, the Lord will cooperate more deeply with American companies, in fact, now that negotiations are underway, Carnegie, Rockefeller, DuPont, and even Ford are all in contact with southern African companies, and we can complement each other's strengths, and not engage in vicious competition as some people imagine." Mike Carlyle is good at dancing, and according to his investment in Hoover, once Hoover is elected, Mike Carlisle may even enter the cabinet as a minister or something.

American companies are not completely rejecting southern African capital, and these American capitalists are actually elites, and the cost of southern African goods is low, and if they engage in malicious competition, then American companies really do not have an advantage.

Therefore, joining forces to reach a price alliance is the king, and a resource-poor country like Japan is not qualified to participate in this feast at all.

"Yes, there is no fundamental conflict of interest between the United States and Southern Africa, and if we join forces, then we will have enough power to overturn the previous international order and usher in a new era." Hoover's ambitions were a corner of the wall that encouraged southern Africa to dig into the British Empire.

The overthrow of the old order clearly means the colonial system dominated by Britain and France.

Well, France was pulled over to accompany it, in fact, Britain was the leader.

"Yes, some things are out of fashion, it's time for a change—" Mike Carlyle doesn't mind breaking the market monopoly of various countries, and southern Africa is also salivating over the American market.

The British Commonwealth, the British Commonwealth, sounds good, but in fact, excluding India, the market of the Commonwealth is not very large, and the total population of the United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, and southern Africa is not as large as that of the United States.

Although the population of India is large, but remove the Dalit at the bottom, there are not many people with sufficient consumption power, although the Dalit at the bottom has consumption demand, but there is no consumption power, the upper Brahmin has consumption power, but the number of people is small and the desire to consume is not high, the market size seems to be very large, but in fact the volume is very small.

Including food.

Roque himself did not expect that India would still be able to export grain to Britain when tens of millions of people starved to death due to severe famine a few years ago.

Indian farmers would rather sell their grain to British farmers to feed their cattle than sell their grain at a low price in India to Dalits who are struggling to die.

It is difficult for the British to understand this behavior.

Roque can understand that the country of India has never been a whole, and it is difficult for more than a hundred ethnic groups within its borders to produce the same centripetal force as in southern Africa.

To put it mildly, when southern Africa was first founded, the white British also sat back and watched the Boers in southern Africa struggle to the brink of death, and were essentially no different from the Brahmins in India.

As it turned out, the performance of Hoover and James Cox in the first debate largely determined the direction of the presidential election.

After the first debate, social surveys showed that Hoover, who valued people's livelihood, was elected ahead of James Cox, who was tough on the outside world.

Americans are tired of the war, and James Cox's set, which may have been marketable a decade ago, is now outdated.

When the news came back to Southern Africa, Roque was not surprised by the direction of the U.S. election campaign, but Roque didn't have the energy to pay attention to the U.S. election, and the Southern African Union was about to be established, and Roque has been busy lately.

According to the results agreed between Philip and the Presidents and Prime Ministers, after the establishment of the Southern African Union, the countries will be significantly disarmed, and the defence will be taken care of by Southern Africa.

Correspondingly, half of the defense expenditures for 1920 would be paid to the Federal Government of Southern Africa.

The Kingdom of Mozambique is most compatible with Madagascar and West Africa, the Republic of the Congo is ambiguous, the Kingdom of Congo is quite complaining, and Barry is ambitious and unwilling to become a colony in southern Africa.

"The Kingdom of Congo has also been relentless in recent years, and has formed an army of nearly 200,000 people in the country, some of which have participated in world wars - Barry's attitude towards the establishment of the Southern African Union is not positive, and after the establishment of the Southern African Union, the Kingdom of Congo will also retain some troops, the number of which is about 50,000." Xiao Si is very concerned about the Kingdom of Congo, and part of the Central African Copper Belt is located in the territory of the Kingdom of Congo.

When Southern Africa was demarcating its border with the Republic of the Congo, it was also demarcating its border with the Kingdom of the Congo, and the western valley of the Congo River was in the midst of Southern Africa's claims, and if the Kingdom of the Congo agreed to the Southern African demands, the Kingdom of the Congo would lose at least two-fifths of its territory.

This region, which is also the most resource-rich in the Kingdom of the Congo, has not only large quantities of copper and rare metals, but also large amounts of forest resources and plantations, a large part of which are the private property of Bari.

"50,000 people, two divisions, that is, two divisions that participated in the world war?" Roque knew that during the World War, the Kingdom of Congo sent nearly 200,000 people to Europe.

"Three divisions, these three divisions later also participated in the intervention of the new Russian government, after the war some stayed in Europe, some went to the umbrella, and the 50,000 people that Barry wanted to keep were formed with veterans who participated in the world war as the core." Xiao Si was dismissive.

Barry is also naïve, and the Kingdom of the Congo, like the Republic of the Congo, relies on the support of southern Africa to meet the needs of sustaining the force.

Once Southern Africa ceases its support for the Kingdom of the Congo, the Kingdom of the Congo troops will run out of ammunition and food, and they will not be able to buy arms with money.

Oh, and Barry doesn't have any money, and even if he does, he doesn't want to, and most of the time he exchanges resources.

"Feiqi, call His Majesty the King of the Kingdom of Kongo, and I'll invite him to dinner in the evening." Roque decided to call Barry over and bang and bang, and this Nima didn't go to the house for three days.

"Heh, that guy deserves it too?" Xiao Si looked disgusted, the king and the king are different.

A Barry certainly doesn't deserve it, and Roque also hired Aldrich and Isaac Pansy, Anthony Bowman, and Robert from Madagascar.

Xiao Si and Henry accompany him.

Just before the dinner began, Roque received an unexpected news that this afternoon, the young king of the Kingdom of Mozambique, who had not yet reached adulthood, suddenly fell ill and died after rescue efforts failed.

The little king is the 26th son of the scumbag, and you can see the fertility of the scumbag from this ranking, if you really give the scumbag enough time, maybe the slag can really give birth to a country.

This little guy has a mother who has good means, after the little guy became the king, the other sons of the scum died one after another because of various accidents, and now there are dozens of sons of the scum, and there is only one little guy left.

As a result, the little guy died of illness before he reached adulthood, leaving no heirs, so in this way, the royal family of the Kingdom of Mozambique has no heir, and there is no successor.
