"No, no, we ca n’t agree to this trade agreement. Once you open your mouth, you wo n’t be able to stop it later. This is like a flood, it will wash our economic situation. This kind of thing has happened. Back, do we have to make another mistake? "
New York, Staten Island, Brotherhood Headquarters Building.
Distorted sounds are heard from the high-power radio station in the David Lawrence office. There are various difficulties in long-distance radio transmission. The sound from Mexico City always sounds awkward after spanning thousands of kilometers. .
The one who is anxiously denying on the radio is Chandra, who is with Angie. This economist is debating how much harm will be brought to society by opening up unrestricted trade.
Before the cataclysm, David Lawrence also heard about the impact of Zhonghua products on American society. But as a middle class with limited income, he was actually very fond of flower-growing products-he could buy products of good quality for a small amount of money. Who doesn't like it?
At present, as a regional leader, David Lawrence has more to consider. He also agrees with the damaging effects of cheap products that Qian Lade said has hit the market, but he should also consider the current plight of insufficient production at his own factories.
In the trade with Aurora Legion, the New York Brothers rebuilt some light industries. These enterprises with low investment and quick results have brought many jobs and also brought a lot of taxes, which is very helpful for stabilizing society.
But there are too many things missing in North America.
If nothing else, just say the subway in New York. It was built more than 100 years ago, and it looked dilapidated 50 years ago. The government and the media began to consider updating and repairing it. But it could not be repaired before the catastrophe, let alone now.
New York ’s airports are rotten, New York ’s streets are narrow, and New York ’s public facilities have too many places to invest in. If urban construction is not an urgent demand, what about electricity supply? What about water supply? What about medical device supply? There are too many places to spend money.
No matter where Zhou Qingfeng gets cheap goods from, David Lawrence ca n’t refuse this kind of trade. He needed too much, and now he would drink it even if he knew it was a glass of poisonous wine.
Faced with the advice of Radio Moneyrad, His Excellency Lawrence looked up to Herbert who was waiting for consultation in his office. The latter is responsible for the business of the New York Brotherhood and has the most say in this matter. "Herbert, what is your opinion?"
Herbert is a little cramped ...
David Lawrence occupies several states around New York, and the economic conditions are good. In fact, the other divisions of the Steel Brotherhood do not occupy much space and face more problems. Everyone can barely eat enough now, but the quality of life is still very poor.
For example, the Brotherhood of New York is doing its best to restore the power supply, so it must be consumed when there is electricity. What is it used for? Household appliances, at least have a lamp to provide lighting.
But the price of a lamp on the black market is extremely high, because a lamp looks inconspicuous, but it is also supported by an industrial chain behind it. The production of a lamp requires the cooperation of glass, chemical, metallurgy, machinery manufacturing and many other industries.
And the demand for similar products is extremely strong, not to mention North America now, even North America before the catastrophe needs to rely on imports to obtain these ordinary living supplies.
It has been many years since the United States de-industrialized. When the economic conditions were good, it was not able to be rebuilt. Now, let alone mention it.
And Aurora Legion wants to export these living materials in exchange for scattered industrial equipment and products across North America, and even raw materials such as petroleum. This transaction looks very cost-effective.
Yes, Zhou Qingfeng has not only created an export list, but also a demand list. Some things are surprising, the most special of which is oil. It should be said that Aurora Legion should not be short of oil after taking control of Mexico, but he still has to open up acquisitions-how much is needed.
With this alone, the Brotherhood of Iron and Steel will be divided. Herbert knows that the Freemasonry entrenched in the northwest must agree to cooperate with Aurora Legion, even if David Lawrence refuses, it will not help. Because the poor Masonic has control of many oil fields in Canada.
"Aurora Legion only requires a two-year duty-free policy, I think this proposal is actually very reasonable." Herbert said what seems to be the key point. In fact, he is very clear that no one can refuse such a good thing, especially Aurora Legion has also opened another big weapon to open the market-agency rights.
When Herbert went to Merida last time, Zhou Qingfeng bluntly said, ‘I do n’t like to see him’. But he received another telegram last night. The head of the army called him a ‘dear friend’.
For this cheeky shameless villain, Herbert also hated his teeth. But he was extremely interested in the chips in the telegram-Zhou Qingfeng threw away the steel sales agency of the New York Brothers as a dog bone, which is a big deal.
Herbert hardly needs much calculation to understand how much benefit this will bring him. With this agency right in hand, he even wished that the North American steel industry would not develop, that the tax exemption policy would continue, and that no trade barriers would be lifted.
This way you can always earn excess returns.
At that time, Zhonghua had a special word to describe this kind of person-the bourgeois comprador that destroyed its national industry. During the period of the Republic of China, there were especially many such people. Kaishen Gong depended on these people at that time, and unfortunately was also harmed by these people.
Herbert is also unable to resist this kind of co-op. He knows that if he does not agree, there will be others who agree, and he has no choice. There are too many speculators inside the Brotherhood, and someone with such a large piece of fat will surely pounce on it.
For Herbert's statement, David Lawrence nodded slightly. He also felt the two-year tax exemption, and he could use this to exchange for a large number of cheap goods, which is very beneficial to the strength development of the New York Brotherhood.
However, Chillard still objected loudly on the radio, "Two years? In two years, may we still have policies to restrict the inflow of Aurora Legion commodities? If we do not take advantage of the current development of our industry, we will have to do it in two years. Regret. "
This time I changed to David Lawrence to persuade Chandra. "We developed it two years later, and naturally we do n’t need so many Aurora Legion products. Naturally, we can increase tariffs and protect our own business."
"No, it's impossible." Chandra was almost mad, "Lawrence, your understanding of the bureaucracy is still too superficial. I bet it won't take two years, and this kind of trade will be built in one year A huge interest group, even now it may have taken shape.
This interest group will hold a lot of funds, control the responsible network, and form an alliance driven by interests. They will inevitably overrule your power, you will not even have the opportunity to resist, and you will lose everything. "
The face of David Lawrence is black.
Herbert on the side suddenly said: "I think Mr. Chandra's remarks are a bit exaggerated. Our current group was created by Your Excellency Lawrence. You have complete control over it. The most important thing is You still have the military, how can any group challenge you? "
This said David Lawrence's complexion turned 'cloudy to sunny', he said confidently: "I'm quite sure of my army. Victor Hugo's suggestion can be seriously considered, let him earn some benefits, this is not No. "
"No, no, you are too stupid, you will regret it." Chandra is still struggling on the radio, "You will become sinners of the United States, you will destroy this country. I beg you , Don't mess up! "
Speaking of the last time Chandra was crying, David Lawrence, who can make a decision, no longer ignored Chandra ’s nonsense, and Herbert ’s mouth hung a smile, and the cloud was light.
