"Franklin Roosevelt! Hello, Mr. Oda!"

When introducing himself, Roosevelt wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses and looked elegant. He had a smile on his face, but he felt a little helpless in his heart. Even a month ago, he had never thought about it.

One day I will come to China, not as a senator in the U.S. Senate, but as an American lawyer.

Of course, on the way here, he already understood that perhaps for the Chinese, what they need is their own name, and of course, their identity as a senator in the U.S. Senate is indispensable.

If he could refuse, Roosevelt would definitely refuse, but this "invitation" was not proposed to him by "Lee" who owed him a meal, but by him through a person.

"The Democratic Party belongs to the Morgan family, and the Republican Party belongs to the Rockefeller family!"

It was Morgan who gave him tactful advice. For Roosevelt, who entered politics as a Democrat two years ago, it was undoubtedly a betrayal of his family. Even his presidential uncle, a Republican, once angrily scolded him as "

You despicable little brat! You traitor..." But Franklin Roosevelt did not change his direction, even though he eventually won the election and became a New York City Senator.

But similarly, betrayal of the family's political tradition made Roosevelt more dependent on the Democrats, and correspondingly, more dependent on Morgan, who provided financial support to the Democratic Party. Why was Morgan willing to help Li, and even help the Chinese next to him?

That was a deal between them, and for him, all he needed was to meet Morgan's demands.

"oh!"

Hearing this name, Odagiri Manjunosuke was slightly startled. This name seemed a bit familiar, but for a while, he couldn't remember where he had heard this name.

"Mr. Oda, Senator Roosevelt, is the legal adviser I invited!"

Although I was sweating in my heart, Sheng Xuanhuai had a hint of pride on his face when he introduced Roosevelt. This time he dared to come to the capital and quarrel with this Asian. In Li Zicheng's words, it was a fox pretending to be a tiger.

Roosevelt came from a "political family" in the United States. His uncle was the last president of the United States and the one who mediated the Russo-Japanese War. With him as Han Yeping's legal adviser, the Japanese always had to sell him some face.

"Senator, Counsel?"

Listening to these two words, Odagiri Manjunosuke immediately realized that he was afraid that Sheng Xuanhuai had bad intentions when he came to the door today. Moreover, until this moment, he finally remembered who Roosevelt was in front of him and that he was the previous president of the United States.

Roosevelt's nephew.

"Mr. Roosevelt, I wonder if my uncle is well now!"

Odagiri Manjunosuke had great respect for Theodore Roosevelt. Although he was aware of his hostility towards Japan, he also understood that without him, Japan would not have been able to win the Russo-Japanese War. And most importantly, in

From Oda's perspective, Roosevelt was by no means some has-been old politician.

Now he is fully participating in the presidential campaign. In the party primaries in 12 states last year, Roosevelt won 9, which shows that he is still very popular among ordinary voters. Maybe this year, he is very likely to become the next President of the United States.

.

"He is busy with his career now. I came to China this time just for personal matters. It happens that Mr. Sheng needs a legal professional to provide him with some advice. So, as a friend, I should naturally

Provide some legal advice to Mr. Sheng!”

Roosevelt's words were watertight, and the Japanese could not find any reason to attack him. It was inappropriate for a senator to serve as a legal adviser to a foreign company, but it was legal to provide legal advice to a friend.

reasonable.

At this moment, Odagiri Manjunosuke, who was muttering in his heart, had vaguely guessed Sheng Xuanhuai's intention. When he turned to look at Sheng Xuanhuai, there was a hint of unhappiness in his eyes.

"I wonder what Chairman Sheng has to offer when he comes here today!"

The politeness in his words revealed Xiaotian's mood, but Sheng Xuanhuai smiled awkwardly. Li Weige, who was standing behind Sheng Xuanhuai, immediately took out a contract from Wenbo's bag.

"Chairman Xiaotian, this is the loan contract signed by Hanyeping Company and Guiyin last year. Today, our company is here to provide repayment of the loan, and at the same time inform you that from now on, a "pre-sale ore and iron contract" will be

Stop immediately!"

What

When he opened his eyes, Xiaotian could hardly believe his ears. Is Sheng Xuanhuai crazy? He, he dared to break the contract

"You, you dare to break the contract!"

"Chairman Oda!"

Facing Xiaotian's question, Sheng Xuanhuai smiled awkwardly, turned over the copy of the contract and said.

"According to Article 11 of the contract, we have the right to repay the loan in advance! And according to Article 26, when the loan is repaid in full including interest, Hanyeping Company can stop paying Mitsui Properties in accordance with the contract.

Supplying pig iron and iron ore!”

Sheng Xuanhuai, who has been in the business world for decades, has always been good at playing word games. It was the last time, and it is the same this time. And these two are exactly what Xiaotian is most worried about.

But at this time, what he was most worried about turned out to be reality, and Sheng Xuanhuai wanted to tear up the contract.

"Then according to the contract, you have to pay..."

Taking a cashier's check from Li Weige, Sheng Xuanhuai handed the check over.

"The total principal and interest are yen! Mr. Chairman, this is a promissory note issued by Morgan Bank!"

When mentioning Morgan Bank, Sheng Xuan deliberately emphasized his tone.

Morgan Bank, Roosevelt

How could Tian ignore the information inadvertently revealed in Sheng Xuanhuai's words? Looking at the cashier's check issued by Morgan Bank, the cashier's check was signed by that damn Jew. Faintly, he realized that this was a conspiracy, a conspiracy between Morgan and those

Damn the conspiracy brewed by Americans who are hostile to Japan.

"Mr. Roosevelt, please convey my regards to your uncle for me. Japan is very grateful for everything he has done!"

Tian almost gritted his teeth and hummed this sentence. In his opinion, this conspiracy was planned by that damn Roosevelt. Ever since the Russo-Japanese War, that damn Yankee has been full of hostility towards Japan. Now

He even struck Japan in the most deadly place.

Through these few days of subtle observation and understanding, Roosevelt understood why Li Zicheng found him. This was a very helpless choice made by a weak company when faced with the coercion of a powerful company. And now this Li Zicheng

The emotion shown by the Chairman of the Bank of Japan at this time further proves this point.

Although he had differences with his uncle on some political issues, they were both wary of Japan. When he came here, he had fully studied Han Yeping and the Japanese Iron Works, which made him realize that if the country was cut off

The source of Japan Steel's pig iron and iron ore will bring serious damage to this country that is eager to industrialize. It is for this reason that he is willing to use this "gun", which is also for the benefit of the United States.

"Chairman Oda, I will definitely convey your words to him truthfully!"

As Xiaotian watched, he suppressed his anger. Sheng Xuanhuai, who was unwilling to stay here for even a second, quickly spoke.

"Chairman Oda, can we..."

Xiaotian, whose face was livid and had no reason to refuse, stared at Sheng Xuanhuai. When the sweat broke out on Sheng Xuanhuai's forehead, he snorted again.

"Mr. Sheng, I must remind you that you are making a huge mistake!"

"Well……"

With a dry laugh, Sheng Xuanhuai glanced at Roosevelt beside him with his peripheral vision, but all he thought was that this guy's background could calm these Asians, but it seemed that they were very wary of him.

Tian was reviewing the documents in front of him almost word for word. At the same time, he cast his gaze outside the office. Why hadn't Hashimoto come over yet? Didn't he hear himself shouting?

At this moment, the door was suddenly opened, and a Japanese man in a suit and leather shoes walked into the room. Among the entourage behind him, there was even a soldier.

"Mr. Sheng, I heard that you want to tear up the contract signed with our company, right?"

Staring directly at Sheng Xuanhuai, Hizhi Yi asked.

Without waiting for Sheng Xuanhuai's answer, Roosevelt, who knew his role in this drama, quickly entered the role.

"Sir, this is just an ordinary business behavior. According to the contract between the two parties, Mr. Sheng has the full right to make decisions in his own interests based on the contract!"

While Roosevelt was speaking, Hashimoto Mori quickly whispered a few words in Japanese into Hiiki's ear. Hiiki was slightly startled and looked at Roosevelt with doubts in his eyes.

"Yeah, it's just business behavior, but..."

With a cold snort, Hizuki looked at Oda again, these idiots, it's a shame that they all claimed to be sinologists, and in the end, these treacherous Chinese people took advantage of the loophole.

"Because this contract is very important, I hope to be able to..."

"That's right. This is not a negotiation between the two parties on the terms of the contract, but Mr. Sheng's repayment of the loan. I hope you can handle it immediately. Otherwise, I think it will definitely have a negative impact on the reputation of Yokohama Shokin Bank!"

Roosevelt spoke word by word, looking at the arrogant Hizuki and then looking at Sheng Xuanhuai who looked a little submissive next to him. At this time, he could actually understand Li Zicheng, who owed him a meal, and why he was doing this.

Do it even if you want to offend the Japanese.

"Okay, very good,"

He nodded and turned his attention to Xiaotian.

"You can sign now!"

After giving this instruction, Hizuki said with a smile.

"Senator Roosevelt, I hope my uncle's campaign will go smoothly!"

This can only be the case. When conceiving this plot, Wuyu had imagined many possibilities, but in the end, only this one was relatively safe, for the people of a weak country...)...
