Chapter 2139 - 2139:

Such an operation by the Wale Republic, it's simply cheeky, hitting the Great East Pot right in the sore spot!

The Great East Pot is howling and wailing, the Inflamed Man is there cursing every day! Talking about anti-monopoly, yelling about how Wale is trash that violates world trade rules, but... still want to be full? Still want to, right?

Cursing on one side, hurriedly holding private meetings to respond, looking for strategies and whatnot.

Yet, once Trump starts that tariff war, the Great East Pot can't even go out to buy some cheap grains. Not to mention, the Evil Luo Country's grain prices also increased, not just by ten percent, more like twenty percent.

Evil Luo Country is the daddy, can raise prices how it wants, the son has to accept, right? No, no, no, the son doesn't want to accept either, the import quota has been reduced considerably.

Go buy from the United States? The prices are too high.

Go to Danajia? The shipping costs are too expensive, sigh...

What's worse, that fool Beicao Pot, also faced rainy weather, autumn floods, terribly worse off, whining about starving to death, asking the big brother for some grain to eat, sigh...

What else can the Great East Pot do?

On the surface, the Inflamed Man curses every day, secretly still has to send a delegation, and that's a national grain trade delegation, with a thick skin, heading to the Wale Republic, requesting negotiations, wanting long-term orders, five-year various grain procurement!

Their goal in negotiating, of course, is to see if they can get a discount?

After all, at this moment, the Wale side doesn't have many discount opportunities!

The result, Wale said the quotas are full, prices increased by ten percent, can sign a five-year contract; if signing for ten years, can increase by only nine percent. If coupled with energy procurement, haha, can increase by only eight percent.

Don't underestimate one percent, you know? In terms of this grain import deal, reducing one percent annually is in billions!

For Wale's demands, it's really beyond reproach! Market economy, all kinds of sales strategies exist, if terms are agreeable, everyone does business, if not agreeable, then don't!

The Great East Pot's delegation, of course, can't decide, first reports back home.

Within the Great East Pot, the top figure in charge of grain imports hears it, also can't decide! This matter concerns the rice bowl, whether people eat enough, a mistake could lead to big trouble!

So the top figure seeks Gu Changsha, asking him to make a decision.

Gu Changsha hearing this situation, of course feels annoyed but has to solve the problem.

He decides to personally talk to Liu Zhizhong, asking him to consider concessions. As friendly nations for years, mutual benefits are the real good!

However, Liu Zhizhong is apologetic and says: "Comrade Gu Changsha, it's not that I don't want to make this trade with Great East Pot more solid, nor do I not want to help! But I'm just the president of the Wale Republic, not the person in charge of grain agricultural import-export trade. This matter is fully handled by the Prime Minister and related companies, I cannot interfere!"

"I don't have your kind of power, to guide everything, make suggestions, give important directions! Alas, being president, the power is small, there's nothing to be done, constitutionally restricted, can't go against the constitution, right?"

This statement, both factual and seemingly sarcastic, makes Gu Changsha's face twitch; feeling uncomfortable but not daring to act out.

"Mr. Chi Zhongshui, sigh... haha, you've changed a lot in the past two years!"

Gu Changsha also has a bit of irony now.

Liu Zhizhong pretends not to know and says: "People will change. No matter how I change, as long as Wale's people are satisfied and live well, that's enough. Comrade Gu Changsha is also changing, becoming hardly recognizable to me, how does one interpret that? Right?

"Certainly, whether the people are satisfied or not, only you know in your heart. Even if your organization is satisfied with you or not, only you know, right?"

"Fine, debating these things is meaningless, I have other things to busy myself with."

Just an excuse, Gu Changsha hangs up the phone, then curses for quite a while in the office and lets it go.

What else can he do?

Pressure Wale?

With what leverage?

Wale Republic, in today's world structure, already holds the advantage, step by step ahead, many countries can't catch up even with all their might.

Moreover, for a country like the Great East Pot? Full of ailments, with what to chase after Wale?

Wale Republic, moving with high speed and efficiency and immense potential, marching towards the forefront of human civilization, steadily advancing!

Ultimately, after getting the Great East Pot autumn grain data and annual harvest data, Gu Changsha's face turns dark and inside he's nervously panicked.

Looking again at the Great East Pot's expert predictions, really sees the previous letter from the Wale Republic, his internal panic intensifies. Damn, is God punishing me?

How to solve the problem?

He makes the decision!

No option left but to concede to Wale Republic, sign the purchase contract according to their demands, sigh...

A few days later, the two countries sign the relevant agreement, Great East Pot signs a decade, binding agricultural and energy resources, initially paying three hundred billion US dollars.

Hehe... don't pay? Don't place the order?

According to the rules, negotiations stated to give one third upfront, the rest in installments. Don't talk nonsense, it's a seller's market, not a buyer's, hehe...

Actually, Great East Pot doesn't lose out. Although the grain part is a bit of a loss, they gain on the oil and gas! Because of Wale Flying Land's oil and gas blowout, international oil and gas prices drop sharply! Buying Wale's oil and gas is nearly forty percent cheaper than buying from Evil Lord...

However, the grain and energy trade order between Wale and Great East Pot really isn't on the news, no face for it!

Later, they just released the data, yearly grain production increased from last year, it's truly a good year of favorable weather! This data can fool idiots, that's okay. However, there really are fools who believe, do you?

Moreover, Great East Pot still acts tough despite setbacks, holding onto the feeling of revolutionary friendship, also gives Beicao Pot a free batch of grain, and sends Non-Continent's brothers a batch of relief grain for free, haha... routine operation, just get used to it!

Certainly, Great East Pot realizes, the global food crisis isn't a matter of one or two years, could be long-term. As a result, their experts begin to blow the wind: genetically modified crops are high-yield and safe, need large-scale promotion!
