U.S.
President Grant groaned and put his hand on the book given by President Moe, he may never learn any Chinese calligraphy, but this book is very attractive to the president."
Mr.
Manager, just say what you want to get," U.S.
President Grant asked as he looked into Xuan Yuemeng's eyes.President Meng smiled slightly: "It's very simple, first, the U.S. government recognizes the legal status of the Danzhou colony and the status of Prince Richard Harris of the Kingdom of Hawaii. ”Princess Katrina Kafu heard President Moe suddenly mention her brother, and stood up straight nervously, it seemed that Xuan Yuemeng glanced at her, beforehand, President Moe did not talk to Princess Katrina Cafu about the content of this visit to the President of the United States.U.S.
President Grant breathed a sigh of relief, Li Xiande had already told him about this matter, "I may be able to think of a way to do this, but even if I bring it up, it needs congressional approval." ”President Meng heard what Grant meant, and knew that this was a trivial matter, and there was a chance that it could be done simply, so he nodded: "Second, Danzhou needs to purchase a batch of armaments, warships, rifles, and cannons, the more the better, and it is better to directly purchase the weapon production line."
Basic industrial equipment, I want to develop a large number of industries in the colony" Grant shook his head very directly: "A small number of weapons are still possible, a colony to directly purchase armaments, this is very difficult, weapons production line is even more impossible, this is a national secret."
Some basic industrial equipment, this is okay, but you need to contact it yourself, and when the time comes, I can think of a way, but the amount should not be too large to arouse the disgust of public opinion, you know, in the United States, public opinion is much more powerful than me, the president. ”President Meng also probably expected Grant to refuse, and was not surprised, nodded and smiled: "Okay, Mr.
President, I understand your opinion."
However, once Danzhou is recognized, as a country, why can't we buy armaments, I need warships. ”President Grant directly pushed back the calligraphy book given by President Moe, "There's no way, Mr.
Manager, I can't do it." ”President Meng smiled and said: "Mr.
President, this is just a small gift, whether you can do it or not, I will not take it back, if you don't like it, please burn it yourself, I want to ask you to help" President Meng felt a little anxious, however, it was not that he couldn't be patient to talk, but the opportunity to meet with President Grant of the United States, unlike with Li Hongzhang, you can meet when you want, such opportunities are rare, you need to go straight to the point, simplify the complex.U.S.
President Grant frowned, didn't want the 200,000 U.S. dollars to be fake, and said in a deep voice: "I can submit a bill to you, or I can arrange for you to go to Congress to make your own case to tell whether Prince Richard Harris is here to establish another kingdom outside the Kingdom of Hawaii, which is indeed very promising, but I can't guarantee the amount of armament."
Do you have these two requirements" President Moe nodded, "Yes, Mr.
President, I have these two requirements, this is Prince Richard Harris's sister, and now she is my assistant, can she represent the Kingdom of Hawaii" Grant looked at Princess Katrina Kaaf and nodded, "Yes."
Women's representations are rare, but they are easier to get to be heard by the provocative parliamentarians. ”President Meng stood up with a smile, stretched out his little chubby paws and said, "Thank you, Mr.
President." ”U.S.
President Grant smiled slightly and held President Meng's chubby paws, "You are a very special person, I heard Li Xiande say that you are a prodigy, and you really live up to your reputation."
It's like a mythical story from the East. ”President Meng smiled and said, "Mr.
President has won the award." ”The two of them had a very pleasant conversation, and after the business talk, Grant chatted with Xuan Yuemeng casually, mainly to know his entrepreneurial experience.President Meng answered decently, and said the establishment of a factory in great detail, and Grant, who listened, was impatient, and he wanted to say that he couldn't finish it for a year according to Xuan Yuemeng's words, knowing that Xuan Yuemeng didn't want to let him know his background, so he didn't bother to ask.U.S.
President Grant felt that Xuan Yuemeng was an Oriental child with a very good background, and he should be a child of a high-ranking nobleman's family, and Li Xiande also told him so, which Grant could understand that most of the governors of the colonies had such a background.Then U.S.
President Grant personally took Xuan Yuemeng to visit the White House, and the garden in front of the East Wing was Jia Guilin Garden, and Jacqueline Kennedy was the first lady who contributed the most to the White House.In order to turn the White House into a valuable museum, she began to systematically collect the history and artifacts of the White House, searching for antiques everywhere.After the establishment of the White House Historical Society, she invited experts from the Smithsonian Museum to re-examine and catalog all the White House collections, giving the White House a historical connotation.Many of the rooms are furnished with exquisite antiques, most of which were collected during the Monroe presidency, and the Blue Room, in particular, is full of French royal style: the interior is dominated by blue and gold trimmed walls, which set off the luxurious style of the Blue Room, so this room is often used to entertain VIPs.The balcony of the Blue Room faces the lawn of the South Courtyard and is where the President and dignitaries often wave to the public.Many of the trees on the South Lawn were also planted by the President or his wife, which may have gone down in history.A magnolia planted by Jackson in memory of his deceased wife has become a 100-year-old tree with lush foliage, and it has grown and thrived with the country.The South Lawn is located in the center of the building, and is elliptical with the three rooms on the upper and lower floors.The oval room above the Blue Room, once the president's office and the cabinet room and signing room, is a family floor closed to the public, where Lincoln signed the famous Emancipation Proclamation, which led to the outbreak of the Civil War and the sparking of the assassination in the future.The Red and Green Rooms, flanked to the left and right of the Blue Room, are small reception rooms decorated in different shades for different purposes: the Green Room was used as his private dining room during Jefferson's time, Monroe used it to play cards, and Lincoln's son died of illness in the Green Room during the Civil War, which became Mrs.
Lincoln's sad place and never set foot again.The Red Room was the favorite room of the First Ladies and was furnished in the early 1830's style and has been held here every Wednesday night since the time of Dori.In the State Banquet Room next to the Red Room, a 13-foot long table from the Monroe period is placed, and its delicate carvings are a marvelous masterpiece and one of the masterpieces of the White House.The State Room, which can accommodate up to 130 guests, is inscribed above the marble fireplace with a letter from Adams, the first owner of the White House, to his wife on November 2, 1800: "I pray that God bestows the greatest blessing upon this house and on all those who live thereafter, and that only the honest and wise dwell under this roof." ”"You're a very special person, Mr.
Manager."
When President Meng was about to leave, U.S.
President Grant looked at Xuan Yue Meng and said.President Meng smiled slightly: "I am very happy to know Mr.
President, Mr.
President is also a very wise person, although the United States is now experiencing a major economic crisis, however, I think Mr.
President can safely lead the United States out of the predicament, and, in my opinion, strengthening the export of armaments is also a good way to obtain huge orders and relieve employment pressure." ”Although in President Moe's view, the military-born president of the United States is an insatiable and empty-minded fool, but the sycophants still have to be filmed.President Moe has always maintained a smiling expression, and he has not taken this military president in his eyes.Grande nodded, sighed and said, "I hope those congressmen who are picky after the prickly can understand this truth" President Meng smiled: "Mr.
President, when you submit a bill to Congress, please submit the matter of Danzhou's bid to host the Olympic Games, which is considered the third thing" President Grant frowned, "What is the Olympic Games" President Meng smiled: "Ancient Olympic Games and other ceremonial competitions, ancient Athenian sports and Spartan sports, ancient Greek educational ideas for the harmonious development of body and mind, A variety of means and methods of sports in ancient Greece, etc.With the progress of capitalist industrial production and the bourgeois education method, sports have gained stronger vitality and become a new social need and have been further developed.All these have laid the ideological foundation for the rise of the Olympic movement and provided a suitable soil.Due to the need for international sports competitions and mutual exchanges, a number of international individual sports organizations have been born.The emergence of international sports organizations has made sports competitions get rid of the original local traditions and have an international character.On the basis of the establishment of international sports organizations and the vigorous development of international sports competitions, people also urgently demand the organization of the world's largest multi-sport games, and this trend of internationalization of sports has created conditions for the emergence of the Olympic Movement.The Olympic Games should be like the ancient Olympic Games, with the aim of unity, peace and friendship, but they should be more developed and innovative than the ancient Olympic Games, and they should be open to all countries, regions and peoples, and should be held in rotation throughout the world.The Olympic Games can help the international community's diplomacy, break through the boundaries of nations and countries, and have a prominent international character.Whether it is the Olympic Games or increasing the export of armaments, it will help develop the economy. ”Although U.S.
President Grant didn't quite understand it, he still said: "Breaking through the boundaries between nations and countries and having a prominent international character is not just to let countries compete in sports to strengthen diplomatic ties?"
It's not difficult, I can bring it up together, I don't know how long your head is thinking about things, it's very long-term, this is indeed a good suggestion, but if the legal status of your colony is questionable, this article will not make much sense. ”President Meng smiled and said: "Then it depends on the energy of Mr.
President, after the matter is completed, I still have a lot of thanks" The reason why President Meng said this is to clearly imply that Grant went to help him bribe, the congressmen of this era are a bunch of parasites How could President Grant not understand this and smiled: "That will be a lot of money, maybe more expensive than the oriental calligraphy that Mr.
Manager gave me a few days ago" President Meng stretched out a slap, compared his five fingers, and smiled: "No matter how expensive it is, it can't exceed this number" U.S.
President Grant raised his eyebrows, "What Li Xiande said is not wrong, Mr.
Manager is really a person who does great things, but what is the use of asking for so much armament Which country are you going to fight This is a key point, the United States has just experienced a big war now, and it is not willing to fight, especially if the colonies themselves provoke the war, it is the most disgusting thing in Congress." ”President Meng smiled: "I definitely don't have the idea of going to war with any country, just to protect myself" US President Grande nodded and said: "Okay, Mr.
Manager, I know, I will try my best." ”President Moe bowed to Grant, "Thank you very much, Mr.
President" Ito Hirobumi and the Japanese delegation also met with US President Grant a few days later, and they gave a Japanese katana, although the handle of the knife is pure gold, but there is no promise from Grant.Ito Hirobumi and others left the United States in disgrace.t1706231537:
