Facts have proved that Gladstone is not a saint. When he realizes that the position of prime minister is within his reach, things like this will naturally happen.
Originally, he had a condescending attitude toward the Chinese people. Although he was in alliance with Xiao Letian, deep down in his heart he still believed that he was superior and Xiao Letian was inferior. You, Xiao Letian, just wanted something from me, so you had to be respectful. Serve.
You have to take the initiative to do the dirty work and the dark work, and you have to do it to my satisfaction, even if it's not perfect at all.
But he didn't expect that Xiao Letian wouldn't accept his trick at all. As soon as his tail was raised, he was beaten back with a stick.
"Do you know what war is? Do you know what urban street fighting is about? Sorry, you are a rookie and I am not..."
"On the night when the citizens of Ryukyu revolted, I and a group of ordinary people were able to overthrow the rule of the Japanese warlords. In Vladivostok, my army even fought with the main force of Tsarist Russia's Far East in a bloody battle..."
"Once a war starts, you can't control the scale if you want. The battlefield is changing rapidly, and blood rushes to your head. Do you think you can be so calm?"
"Dublin, a city with a population of 200,000, is in chaos. Do you know what that scene is like? That's hell! Two hundred of your soldiers have died, and more than five hundred citizens can't stand it? Please do some statistics on how many Irish people have died. How much, at least ten times as much as yours!"
"Stop your arrogant face, don't think you are giving me alms... Since we are allies, show some sincerity!"
"Stare? If staring can solve the problem, why do you need fists? Your hands are already dirty. If you talk nonsense anymore, it will be scattered. You can think about it for yourself. Once this shady secret is exposed, what will be waiting for you! "
"Scoundrel! How dare you!" Listening to Xiao Letian's clenched teeth and dying together, Gladstone stood up angrily with veins popping up on his forehead.
"Xiao Letian, don't forget, everyone suffers. If this matter is exposed, you will be the most unlucky! Do you think you can return to Asia alive? Stop dreaming..."
Xiao Letian was not angry at all. He crossed his legs and sneered, "Then you give it a try? See if I dare to risk it all? Don't forget, what kind of family background do you have, and what kind of background do I have..."
"I have managed to become such a powerful force with my bare hands. From the very beginning, I never expected a happy ending...I am a living bandit and a bad gambler. Even if I die, I will have to drag along a group of scoundrels to back me up!"
"Do you want to give it a try? Let's see who can give it up?"
"You..." Gladstone was suddenly speechless. This really fulfilled the old Chinese saying, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes.
In fact, which one of Gladstone and Xiao Letian is barefoot? Who wears shoes? If analyzed by an outsider, Xiao Letian must be the one wearing shoes, and Gladstone is the one who can risk everything.
Because in terms of wealth, Xiao Letian is much richer and more powerful than Gladstone. First of all, Xiao Letian, the head of state, was not elected, but given by heaven.
Why is it given by heaven? Because the Chinese are his children, all members of this organization are his disciples, and no one can be above him, not even the Chinese Code.
It should be remembered that the Chinese code of law was created by Xiao Letiancao and then completed by his subordinates adding flesh.
There is no need to elaborate on how big the Chinese family's wealth is. It is tens of millions of times more than the Gladstone family's wealth.
But human nature is often very weird. In Gladstone's heart, he is the expensive wearer of shoes. The reason is very simple, because he is mentally misplaced.
Gladstone himself has a lot of wealth and can be considered a rich man, but compared with Xiao Letian, of course he is not as good as him. But don't forget that he has always been in power at the top of the empire where the sun never sets. Gradually, he has gained a sense of the aura given to him by power. A natural feeling.
Later, Xiao Letian heard a saying that was widely circulated on the Internet, which was: 'If you leave that position, you are nothing?' 'That's the mentality.
Many people in the workplace tend to become accustomed to it and regard some of the ancillary rights brought by their position as their natural rights.
Many officials and company executives are surrounded by crowds when they come in and out, and they are all flattering when they look around. They don't have much income, but they can't afford to be reimbursed with public funds or entertained by clients everywhere.
No matter how high-end the restaurant is, I can enjoy it, no matter how high-end the hotel is, I can stay at any time, no matter how awesome the entertainment venue is, there is no stage fright.
Gradually, he regards some of the ancillary rights that his position brings him as his own ability. This kind of person may only have a monthly income of 10,000 yuan, but psychologically he thinks that he is already a millionaire.
He was obviously barefoot, but he thought he was wearing expensive leather shoes. In the end, it was only when he left that seat that he suddenly realized that he was nothing.
Gladstone is now caught up in this emotion. He himself is also worth a lot. The most important thing is that he is the finance minister of the empire on which the sun never sets, and is in charge of the financial power of the entire empire.
And soon he will be promoted to another level, and he will become the prime minister of the empire. The powerful military force will respect his will to fight, and he can make countless countries collapse and countless crowns fall to the ground with just a few hands.
What kind of right is this? This is a ray of light that is hotter than the sun. What does Xiao Letian's Chinese race mean in comparison? It's just a weed.
'No, no, no, I absolutely can't die together with someone like Xiao Letian. What's my worth? What's his worth? There's no equality. Just like what he just said, I'm a rich man wearing shoes and a barefoot one. What's the point of calling a pauper? He's not worth it, he really isn't worth it! '
After understanding this, he coughed twice in embarrassment, "Xiao... your emotions are too unstable. This is not the quality that a mature politician should have!"
"In your eyes, am I just the kind of villain who burns bridges across rivers? Allies should act like allies. What I just said is just to remind you that Ireland's issues are very sensitive and should not be touched lightly..."
"This time is a special case. From now on, you must withdraw all your resources from the island of Ireland. Don't worry too much. This is for your own good and your safety!"
Xiao Letian cursed secretly in his heart, this old bastard turned his back faster than he could turn the pages of a book. Fortunately, I was ruthless enough to dare to fight him. If I had replaced it with a slightly softer one, I might not know how he would have kneaded it.
He was cursing in his stomach but couldn't express it on his face. Xiao Letian could only put on a smile and said, "Of course, Ireland is not a place where the interests of my Chinese people are entangled. I am full of food and care about their life and death, so let's talk about it." Future cooperation is the most important!”
"Haha, the world is a big place, and getting rich together is a big deal!"
