The last sugar cube was pinched in Jiang Chen's hand.
This last chip was "sold" by Trump to Jiang Chen at a price of 100 billion US Dollar.
The Xin Reserve would use its foreign exchange reserves to increase its holdings of 100 billion US Dollar Treasury bonds, and the money would be used to improve the employment situation in the UA. It could also be regarded as helping Trump fulfill his campaign promise to "increase employment".
The foreign exchange reserves of the Xin Reserve were quite abundant, and it would not be a problem to take out 100 billion US Dollar.
"It seems that I took 20 first." Jiang Chen smiled, picked up ten sugar cubes from his chip plate, and pushed them in front of Trump. "I'm glad we reached an agreement. I bet this moment will be recorded in history."
The tripartite agreement on the withdrawal of the UA troops stationed in Nippon was lifted. NATO would withdraw from Colombia within half a year, and Celestial Trade would also withdraw from Colombia. The UN peacekeeping force would enter the Colombian border to control the situation and maintain the divided status quo …
In the greater interest of "the UA joining the Earth Defense Alliance", Celestial Trade's interests in Colombia and Nippon were insignificant. In the blueprint for the future in Jiang Chen's mind, the Earth Defense Alliance would eventually surpass all traditional countries and become a united and unified federation.
And now, the biggest obstacle to the Earth Defense Alliance's integration of global forces had been removed, and this blueprint was one step closer to becoming a reality.
Another more realistic problem was that the colonial ship of Harmony was getting closer and closer to the solar system, and there was not much time left for humans. Only when all civilizations on Earth fought against the colonial ship from 20.5 light-years away as a whole could there be a chance of victory.
"This sugar cube is really expensive."
Trump weighed the sugar cube in his hand and smacked his tongue.
When he thought that the price of each sugar cube was no less than 100 billion US Dollar, he felt that these things in his hand were heavy.
"You can take it back as a souvenir," Jiang Chen said with a smile, "Of course, if you are hungry, you can eat it."
"Eat it? Haha, what will the media report when I go out? Oh, look, that stupid president ate 100 billion US Dollar from taxpayers! " Trump teased himself a few words, patted the assistant next to him who was taking notes of the meeting, then grabbed the notebook from the dumbfounded man and tore off a page.
"Let me borrow it."
After he wrapped the ten sugar cubes and stuffed them into his inner pocket, Trump smiled and patted them.
The assistant nodded with a dumbfounded expression.
"Please feel free to use it …"
"I think this kind of negotiation method can be promoted all over the world." Trump pushed the chair away and stood up. He looked at Jiang Chen and said with a smile, "We solved all the problems in less than an hour."
Jiang Chen also stood up. He just smiled but didn't say anything.
He didn't think that this was a clever way of negotiating. It was just the most suitable way for the two of them.
Actually, as long as they were willing to sit down and talk, the two sides would eventually reach a consensus. These twenty sugar cubes were just to speed up the pace of the negotiations.
When Hill was President of the UA, both the President and the Secretary of State had conducted similar negotiations with Celestial Trade countless times, but the results were often unsatisfactory. It wasn't that Hill and Kerry weren't good enough, but from the beginning, they didn't plan to negotiate as they represented the interests of Wall Street.
But Trump was different, so different that Jiang Chen was even surprised.
Was this guy really the person that Morgan and Rockefeller worked together to make him the president?
The two walked out of the conference room while talking and laughing, stood on the elevator, and finally appeared downstairs of Future Building in front of the media reporters from all over the world.
Almost as soon as he appeared, all the reporters swarmed around him and fought to be the first to ask questions.
"Mr. Trump, what did you talk about in the conference room?"
"Will the UA join the Earth Defense Alliance? Or will the Earth Defense Alliance be incorporated into the United Nations framework? "
"…"
Needless to say, these reporters were full of evil tricks.
From the beginning, they didn't expect this dumbass president to solve any problems. The conflict between Xin and the UA had been going on for a long time, so much so that even the Pacific Ocean couldn't contain it. Many people just wanted to see him make a fool of himself and stuffed the microphone to his mouth.
However, Trump's reaction was beyond the expectations of all the reporters at the scene.
There was no expression of embarrassment or frustration on his face. Instead, he had a victorious smile.
"I once said that I would talk to him on behalf of the UA." Trump pulled the microphone closer, smiled, and said pleasantly, "Just now, I fulfilled my promise! I dare to bet my Trump Group that he is a good person! "
Many reporters looked at Trump as if they were looking at a monster.
Did the sun rise from the west?
On the other side, Jiang Chen just smiled and said in a rather low-key manner, "Congratulations to the people of the UA.
"Congratulations to the people of the United States. You have elected an impressive president."
It seemed that the sun did rise from the west.
Judging from the friendly attitude of the two …
They seemed to have reached a deal?
…
"Shocking! The UA and Celestial Trade have reached a consensus, or will join the Earth Defense Alliance within this year? "
"Sugar Cube Diplomacy Breaks the Deadlock, Xin- UA Relations May Usher in a Honeymoon Period!"
"The Colombian crisis is expected to be resolved within this year. Exclusive Interview Details the Inside Story of Sugar Cube Diplomacy."
Eye-Catching headlines occupied the headlines of major newspapers. Just after the meeting between Trump and Jiang Chen, newspapers, television, and online media in the UA and even around the world began to boil like boiling water.
On the Internet, netizens in North America also expressed that the contrast was too big for them to accept the result of this meeting. Surprise, surprise, joy, or worry, all of their emotions were vented on the keyboard.
"It seems that we all misunderstood him, and he is not as stupid as he looks!"
"Although I still can't forgive what he said … but he did the right thing. In the face of a survival crisis, we should unite, rather than fight for the so-called hegemony."
"You overestimate him. Before he returns to China, no one knows what stupid agreements he signed."
"I'm curious, what does Congress think?"
"…"
Just as public opinion was fermenting on the Internet, in the presidential suite on the top floor of the Heart of the Sea.
"I'm going to the UK at the end of the month." Secretary of State Rex Tillerson put on his suit, put on his tie, and said slowly, "Thirty-four hours later, there is a meeting in Capital waiting for me to host. Is it okay to leave it to you?"
"No problem." Trump raised his hand that was drooping on the back of the sofa, half-lying on the sofa, and scrolled through Twitter with a grin.
It took an hour to reach a consensus with Celestial Trade on more than 20 sensitive issues. In terms of action, he had completely surpassed the previous president Hill. Whether it was his own evaluation of himself, or the surprise and shock shown by netizens around the world under his Twitter, he was so proud that he could not close his mouth.
Rex Tillerson gave Trump a meaningful look, then turned and walked out the door.
