Roosevelt compromised, and Lao Lu expected it, and the army came to the city. How could he disagree with these details?
If the beautiful country wants to fight, there is no need to talk, and there is no need for Lao Lu to come over.
Therefore, consent is inevitable.
When Lao Lu heard this, he smiled.
He flicked the cigarette ashes, patted his clothes, and said with a smile: "Then let's move on to the next topic. Regarding your proposed Chinese autonomous Chinese town, what does it mean and how to implement it?"
How could Lao Lu agree to just a promise of autonomy without implementing it on paper?
Moreover, this is related to the grudges that have been going on for many years, so Lao Lu will naturally not give up.
Roosevelt was relieved to hear that Lao Lu talked about business directly. He was worried that Lao Lu would cause trouble and continue to seize territory.
The current territory is their limit.
However, Lao Lu didn't know what Roosevelt was thinking. If he knew, he would definitely say that the limit is like a sponge, squeeze it. There will always be.
"We have preliminarily ruled that the riots this time are all caused by the mixing of our people and your people. Therefore, from now on, we retain basic management rights such as public security and judicial power for the Chinese Town. The rest Rights, decentralize to Chinesetown.”
"You can organize an association to mediate civil conflicts independently. In this case, situations like this one will definitely be avoided."
Lao Lu nodded secretly. Roosevelt's sincerity was not small, and the people behind it must have put in a lot of effort.
Logically speaking, it should be enough.
According to Roosevelt's vision, this situation will inevitably be greatly reduced.
However, thinking about Mr. Nie's request, Lao Lu could only shake his head and say no.
Roosevelt was puzzled: "Lu, is this sincerity not enough? We have fully delegated power to you. And we will also restrict our people from going to Chinatown. Isn't this enough?"
Not only confused, but even a little angry.
If you ask me, Lao Lu is definitely at the top of the list of people I least want to deal with in this life. .
He suffered a lot when engaging in diplomatic activities with Lao Lu.
Haven't dealt with it yet.
Like a Bodhisattva, Lao Lu pinched flowers and smiled. Well, he should have picked up the tea cup and smiled.
He smiled like a loving Buddha.
"Lao Luo, be more generous!"
Six words, Roosevelt almost vomited blood.
Am I not cool enough?
Still want to be more lively?
But diplomacy means asking for money and paying it back on the spot, so he said in a low voice.
"What does Foreign Minister Lu mean?"
I saw Lao Lu saying with a smile: "Those judicial powers, public security powers, etc., what else do you want to do? Why don't you just give them all away?"
"This way, you can save your worries, and so can I."
"Our initial thinking is that Chinatown has administrative autonomy and extraterritorial power (consular jurisdiction), such as legislative power. I will take care of it for you. We are also good friends, and we cannot let our friends suffer."
As soon as Lao Lu's words came to light, the beautiful country camp suddenly became noisy.
It was noisy and noisy, just like a wet market.
"Nonono, it's impossible, absolutely impossible!"
"We can't talk about this. Are you robbers?"
"Your Excellency, you absolutely cannot agree to this condition. Are you trying to create a concession in our country?"
They have always been the only ones to set up concessions in other places. Where can they set up concessions in their own country?
Isn’t the meaning of the old coin Lu Huixiang a replica of the concession?
The concession enjoys administrative autonomy and extraterritoriality (consular jurisdiction). They understand these rights very well.
That's what they did in Hua's Concession back then!
Lao Lu patted the table.
"When we set up the Chinese Town Concession, isn't it the same as when you set up the Concession in China? Didn't you say at that time that you wanted to help us make progress together? We also mean the same thing now!"
"In the beginning, you were the masters and helped the world to help us. Now that we are the masters, we should help you!"
Lao Lu's words stunned these people.
In an instant, I understood what Lao Lu meant.
This is better said to be a showdown.
"Lu, please change the conditions, so we can't talk!"
Of course Roosevelt would not agree.
This is a concession.
Nothing else!
They can still remember clearly how they relied on the concession to prey on the common people. They are very aware of the disadvantages and advantages of it.
Once the Chinatown Concession is established.
The entire bull demon will become a cemetery, and all the nutrients will be sucked away by the concession!
Lao Lu simply nodded with a little pity: "Okay, Lao Lu, you can speak well! But don't I, Lao Lu, have no face?"
"If you don't want to talk about it, then don't talk about it!"
"Xiao Huang!"
Huang Wen stood up quickly: "Foreign Minister."
He lowered his head and listened to the instructions.
Lao Lu smiled and said, "His Excellency Roosevelt doesn't want to talk. Let's talk to Commander Zhang on the phone."
With a crash, Roosevelt stood up suddenly.
"Foreign Minister Lu, what do you mean?"
Of course they knew who Commander Zhang was in Lao Lu's words!
La beautiful area, commander, Zhang Sanfeng.
Roosevelt had conducted a detailed investigation of this man when he came to the La Pretty area and knew all about his achievements.
Back then, he was someone who dared to encircle and annihilate Hongmao's entire division with one battalion.
Now he is doing whatever he wants in his own back garden.
He can't sit still!
Lao Lu smiled and said: "It's not interesting. I didn't want to talk in the first place. If it weren't for the Chinese people in Chinatown, I wouldn't sit at the negotiating table with you!"
"The concession must be established, I said so!"
Full of arrogance!
"Why didn't you say this when you established the concession in China? Since you can establish it, we can also establish it! Lao Luo, I would like to advise you, don't have double standards!"
Roosevelt was furious.
So angry!
Am I double standard?
Am I double standard?
If I couldn't beat you, I would want to slap you right now!
"Foreign Minister Lu, are you really going to go to war with each other? The fact that you are here to talk means that you also want to solve the problem through negotiation. Can't we have a good talk?"
That's the bad thing about being small.
Sometimes, even though I am very angry, I still have to grovel and beg for help.
Lao Lu chuckled: "I am a very Buddhist person, I can talk and fight!"
"Let's talk, let's continue to talk based on this condition. If we don't talk, we'll fight! We'll see the real results on the battlefield!"
"Anyway, the 100,000 troops at the border of San Diego State, whether you see it or not, they are all there, not far or near!"
The scene has reached freezing point again! The atmosphere was solemn and tense!
People on both sides of the negotiation are looking at each other.
Until the end, eyes focused on Roosevelt, and his decision would determine the direction of this negotiation.
Is it peace talks?
Or break, it's all in his mind.
