My courtyard shelter

"What are you going to do?"

No matter whether the matter is feasible or not, Dabao wants to hear the other party's plan first.

"Hehe, although Ceylon is known as the top three powers in the Indian Peninsula, their equipment is backward. For us, it is simply vulnerable. We only need to send out 3,000 soldiers to overthrow them in one fell swoop."

"So what's next?" Dabao asked.

A trace of disdain flashed across Lawrence's mouth: "Of course, it's to change the cage and the bird."

"Who to replace?"

"Everyone."

"How to change?" Dabao frowned.

"Don't worry, we are not butchers. We will conquer another piece of land on the Indian Peninsula and then move everyone there, including their royal family."

Mr. Lawrence smiled slightly.

Dabao lowered his head and pondered for a long time, then carefully probed: "You don't want to use Ceylon as a springboard, and then take the opportunity to move westward and slowly occupy the entire Tianzhu Peninsula?"

"Haha..." Lawrence took out a cigar box, handed a cigar to Dabao, and then he started to smoke, "Mr. Xu, what kind of people do you think we are?"

"You are big warlords, big financial groups and big businessmen." Dabao did not shy away from this.

"That's right. To use your Daxia language, you and I are essentially capitalists. As the saying goes, some people do business that gets you killed, but no one does business that loses money."

Lawrence paused and continued to explain:

"Let's not talk about whether we can occupy the Tianzhu Peninsula. Even if we really occupy it, this move is tantamount to declaring war on you, Asia. Will we stop doing business from now on?

Besides, the vast Americas belong to us. We don't lack land at all. What we lack is profit.

If we leave you, Asia, we will not only lose the largest single market in the entire Blue Star, but the entire industry will be paralyzed instantly. This result is not something we can bear."

"Okay, I have another question." Dabao nodded, "You are making such a big fuss, which will definitely break the balance on the Tianzhu Peninsula. Why should we, Asia, ask ourselves trouble? In other words, what benefits can we get from it?"

Lawrence waved his hand and asked instead: "I'll ask you a question too. Why do you, Asia, deliberately bypass the Tianzhu Peninsula?"

"It shouldn't be? It's the Tianzhu people themselves who don't want to join in." Dabao said with a guilty conscience.

In fact, there have been many discussions about this matter within Asia, but there is still no standard answer.

There are all kinds of opinions.

"Haha... This is the biggest joke I have heard this year. The Indian Peninsula is right at your doorstep. As long as you move your fingers, I guarantee that the Indians will be ecstatic."

Dabao immediately lowered his posture: "Please give me your advice."

"I don't dare to give you advice. In my opinion, there is only one fundamental reason why you did this, that is, you deliberately kept the other party as a reference."

"Reference? What do you mean?"

"Let me tell you this, human desires are unlimited, and most people's sense of happiness is actually generated when they compare with others.

You, Asia, are too ambitious. You dare to invest everything in controlled nuclear fusion. And the aerospace industry, this huge burden is not a matter of one or two years, it may last for decades..."

"It's a big deal, the Indians are not stupid, they will react one day, you Daxia has a famous saying, either explode in silence or die in silence, I don't think anyone wants to be mud forever.

And as far as I know, the Ceylon country has been a little restless recently, which gives us an opportunity.

As long as we can successfully take over Ceylon Island, we can teach them a profound lesson and stabilize the situation on the peninsula; secondly, we can take the opportunity to divert the contradictions, let us take the lead, and you can rest assured to hide behind the scenes. "

Lawrence answered very tactfully.

In fact, to put it bluntly, Yahu has always cherished his reputation very much. In this case, let them do these dirty work, and both sides will get what they need.

Although the other party said a lot, Dabao shook his head subconsciously:

"Not enough, you just said that we in Asia have enough ability to control the situation on the peninsula, and there is no need to invite wolves into the house."

The four words "invite wolves into the house" clearly show his attitude. I think this is also the attitude of most people in Asia. After all, these big financial groups are not good people. You may trip you up behind your back.

"What about this?"

Lawrence handed over a USB flash drive directly.

"What is this?"

"It summarizes some of the most core and cutting-edge science and technology. It is our last bottom line, including research results in controlled nuclear fusion and aerospace.

We are willing to take it as an exchange. You can take it back to show the people above. I think they should be interested."

"Why find me? You can completely bypass me and come directly to my door."

Dabao said thoughtfully while holding the USB flash drive.

"Mr. Xu, you are still young. The official internal situation is not monolithic. Some things can only be done, and cannot be brought to the table for public discussion, otherwise good things will turn into bad things." Lawrence said earnestly.

"OK, even if what you said makes sense, but this matter involves too much. I need time to think about it. It may take a few days to give you an answer."

"No problem, just take advantage of this time, I will let Vicky accompany you to go around. There are actually many places to play on the island."

Lawrence smiled and waved his hand.

"You're welcome."

Dabao breathed a sigh of relief.

…

After the banquet, Dabao declined Miss Weiqi's proposal to sit in the cafe, and as soon as he returned to the room, he couldn't wait to call his father.

After listening to his eldest son's narration, Xu Dong suddenly became silent.

Dabao waited for more than ten minutes and finally couldn't help it: "Dad, are you still there?"

"Yes, I know about this."

"What should we do?"

"Don't worry, this is not something our family can decide. I'll call and report it to the higher-ups later. Don't act rashly."

Dabao asked immediately: "Do you want to accept the gift that Mr. Lawrence sent to our family?"

"Why not? They obviously want to take the opportunity to make friends with you. If you don't accept it, they will be worried!"

"Dad, I always feel that there is..."

"What are you afraid of?" Xu Dong said unhappily, "Don't look at these people's glamorous appearance. In fact, there are dangers behind them. They may become stray dogs at any time. Don't look down on them."

"Dad, they are not as bad as you say. You haven't seen their castle. It's much more magnificent than ours, just like a small city. It wasn't until today that I knew what the upper class is."

Dabao couldn't help but sigh.
