Chapter 1420 gives you one year

1420 Hu Bin said sorry to not want Alaska at the negotiations, which made all the reporters in the American media silent.

Hu Bin gave a reason, which was very touching to the Americans.

When those reporters published Hu Bin's words in the newspaper, many Americans near the base went to the surroundings of the base and wrote banners, saying thanks to the Chinese.

Various media in the United States, critics and famous people have published comments in newspapers, thanking China.

They did not expect that China would delay the repayment of the United States by one year, and would not require interest. China just doesn’t want their land!

"Hey! As expected, I knew that China would not want our land.

I went to find Hu Bin in the morning and hoped that Hu Bin could agree, but Hu Bin didn't nod, so I was worried about this.

China, we really can't figure out why they do this. In our opinion, it is natural for us to sell them land and use it to repay debts.

But the Chinese just don't want it. I admire this country!" Marshall sat in the office and said to Truman.

After Hu Bin finished talking about it at the venue, he left. The negotiations could not continue, and the people from the United States ended.

The delegations sent by the United States did not expect that Hu Bin would refuse directly.

"Yes, I didn't expect that I thought that Hu Bin might lower the price, it might be 1.8 billion, and I was also ready to lower the price to 1.5 billion.

But they said they didn't want it, even if it was given 900 million, they didn't want it. This really made us not expect.

His Excellency the President said before that China may not need land. His view is based on China having a large amount of land. In fact, this is wrong.

China does not want to hurt the feelings of our American people. They are willing to give us a year to raise funds. I think, in a year, can we sell those supplies?" Truman asked at Marshall.

"A lot of the materials that cannot be sold are machines. We want to give them to the people of our country for free? Now as long as those machines are activated, they are money, how can we sell them?

And those Japanese weapons are huge amounts. If they are released at once, they will not be sold at a high price, and we will suffer losses.

So, we can't raise enough funds for us in a year!" Marshall sat there and sighed.

With so many weapons, there are more than 4 million rifles alone, all in their warehouses, and there are a large number of ammunition, artillery, tanks, and even aircraft, which are not easy to sell.

Those countries in the Middle East who buy from China will definitely not buy from the United States. If they want to seek China's protection, they must buy from China.

So, with so much volume but not such a large market, Marshall is so worried now.

"The president has not yet called back!" Truman said while sitting there, and they also sent Roosevelt the talks.

"Well, they are probably thinking of ways, or evaluating whether we can pay back the money in a year, I guess there is no possibility of this. In a year, we may need more money!" Marshall said while sitting there.

Truman heard it and nodded.

"I really didn't expect that. It seems that I still don't understand China and the Chinese, so we have so many misunderstandings about China.

We underestimate China's integrity and we underestimate the friendship of Chinese people, but this reminds me of Chinese people in our United States.

They are the ones who are the most able to endure hardships. They are all trying to improve their living standards and are very self-improvement. It seems that we really need to have a good understanding of China!" Marshall sat there and spoke.

"Yes, the last incident was indeed wrong with us. We spent more than one million yuan to go out, so we didn't have to spend this money.

But how to say, this money is worth it. After all, the materials seized there are huge amounts! We have also recovered the country." Truman said.

On Roosevelt's side, Roosevelt saw what Hu Bin said during the negotiations, and was silent, while those staff members were also silent.

No matter what hostility they had towards China before, what Hu Bin said really came to their hearts.

China does not want land, does not want to make the American people embarrassed, nor does it want to take away the interests of others. Therefore, this has made the United States highly admire it, and its attitude towards China has also changed greatly.

"In a year, can we raise 900 million to China?" Roosevelt asked, looking at the officials in front of him.

"There is no possibility. It is not China's 900 million yuan now, but our United States. Now we need a lot of funds to restore the country's economy after the war.

Without money, how can we restore the economy? People now have to eat, and without money, how can they have a job?

According to our estimates, if we want to restore our United States to its pre-war level, it may take 12 billion US dollars, equivalent to 10 billion for China, and it will take about 5 years.

If we can't invest so much money within five years, the recovery time will be longer, and, I'm talking about, returning to pre-war levels." An economic official said.

"Damn it, where did we get it from so much money?" Roosevelt was stunned for a moment when he heard it, and then began to worry.

It's $12 billion, and it's going to be invested within 5 years, and they still have war next.

They must fight in Germany. If they don’t fight, the United States will lose all its voice in Europe in the future and will soon become a third-tier country.

Only by defeating Germany can the United States become a first-class country. China can not fight Germany because China is strong enough. As long as Germany does not fight them, China will not have to send troops.

But the United States cannot stop fighting, and the United States does not fight, so the Soviet Union may be able to stabilize its defense line with China's support.

Then the UK may recover the islands of Britain with the support of China. By then, the rankings of China, Germany, the Soviet Union, Britain and the United States will be.

In order to improve their ranking in the world and for their economic interests, the United States must fight.

The United States has also formulated the land in Africa and must obtain part of the land that becomes the United States. In Europe, the United States must gain the right to speak.

Therefore, they cannot avoid this battle. But if they want money, how can they fight?

"His Excellency President, I think you want to send a telegram to General Roosevelt, Vice President Truman and others, and go to Hu Bin again, hoping that Hu Bin can agree to this matter.

His Excellency the President, we need money to develop the economy and prepare for war against Germany. If we don’t have money, how can we fight?" Another financial official suggested.

"Yes, Your Excellency the President, we need money, we have to get money. We don't need Alaska, we can get land from the Middle East and Africa.

This place is gone, even if it’s all right, this place is what we bought from the Soviet Union anyway, and now it’s sold, it’s a thing of the past.

However, we in the United States cannot be without money, especially at this stage, there is no war in the country and the economy needs to be developed." Another official also started speaking.

"Yes, we need money now, damn it!" Roosevelt said with a headache when he heard it.

He knew that China would not be able to buy it now. They also asked China to buy this land, and it must be about 2 billion Chinese currency. This would be difficult and pressure on the negotiator on Hu Bin's side.

"I'll write this telegram. We want to ask China for help in this matter and we must buy Alaska back." Roosevelt said while standing there.

Then he began to write a telegram there, and after he finished writing, he asked his secretary to send it out.

Truman received a telegram from Roosevelt and touched his head, not knowing what to do.

"In the afternoon, let's go to Hu Bin's side again and talk to him about this matter. I hope he can help us." Marshall said.

In the afternoon, Truman, Marshall, and the negotiators went to Hu Bin's command again.

When Hu Bin saw them, he smiled bitterly. When Truman saw Hu Bin like this, he also smiled bitterly.

"Please sit down, hey!" Hu Bin took them to the conference room, asked Truman, Marshall and others to sit down, and sighed.

"General Hu, I'm very embarrassed to come and disturb you again!" Truman said to Hu Bin.

"It's okay, I welcome you here at any time, but you still want to talk to me about buying land, so I, hey, what do you think?

Our commander said that I would like to discuss with you carefully, and not to discuss the land purchase. You can discuss other matters!" Hu Bin pretended to be very embarrassed and didn't know what to do with them.

"Thank you, really, but now we have only this method. Otherwise, we will be cheaper, 1.8 billion, how about it, we will reduce it by 200 million.

We are sincere, and our media reporters are here. You may also know that we in the United States have no money.

There is no war now, the one who can take out so much money now is China!" Truman sat there, first talking to Hu Bin, and then talking to the reporters.

The reporters also nodded, of course they knew that the United States had no money now and needed money to build it.

"General Hu, please consider it again. Send a telegram to ask about your country and see what your commander's opinion is?" Truman then turned around and asked at Hu Bin.
