Chapter 370 Poor Justice
Among Western food, the German meal is considered to be Jing Jian’s favorite. For example, at today’s banquet, there were meat mountains and fats on the long table, which made you feel real.
Jing Jian was arranged opposite Baroness Jung, and there were wives and ladies nearby. After a few words, they became the focus of gossip. Jing Jian was very kind, said a few interesting things about Hollywood, and soon joked with them.
After dinner, a group of big men entered the smoking room. They were also boasting, and the content was different. The international situation was of course a classic topic, and they soon talked about the chaos in Eastern Europe.
Although there are all a group of high-ranking people here, their behavior is similar to those of later netizens. When it comes to the parades or turmoil abroad, they basically have a lively attitude, gloating a few words, and occasionally taking date pills! In fact, no one really thinks that the red giant will collapse.
In the chat, I will inevitably ask Jing Jian a few words. Jing Jian’s answer is very rich, such as “this is” and “it should be”, but it is just a smile. For William, you can reveal some future developments. As for these strangers, there is no need to say any real thoughts, so why bother arguing?
Such banquets are mainly for socializing, so soon after, they gathered together in groups of three or three to discuss some topics of interest. There was a band dance floor next door, some people went to the card table, and younger people could find each other's targets. There was a room for "rest" upstairs, which basically met everyone's needs.
Jing Jian was not interested in those entertainments. He mainly wanted to listen to information from local Europeans. However, the communication was basically German. Jing Jian didn't understand it, and after a while, he lost interest. So he sat down in the corner with a drink, preparing to say goodbye without any hesitation.
"Sorry, are you Mr. Bramble? Is there anyone here?" With a beautiful voice, a tall blonde beauty came beside her and asked Jing Jian with a smile.
"Please sit down, there is no one here." Jing Jian quickly gave up the empty seat, "Miss, you?"
"I am Nona, the Soviet Union's business secretary in Hamburg. I'm very happy to know you." Nona sat down next to Jing Jian with a generous look.
"I'm also honored, the beautiful Miss Nona." Jing Jian was full of questions. Since he had publicly revealed his identity, it means that Nona was carrying a trace of official mission. But... he has nothing to do with the Soviet Union?
"My uncle participated in the war to liberate the Northeast and has always missed the friendly Chinese people."
"Oh? The friendship between our two countries has a long history. Thank you to your uncle and his comrades for the bloody sacrifice. Your uncle must be a great soldier!" Since Nona's routine, Jing Jian also had diplomatic rhetoric. He was becoming more and more interested. What medicine did this righteous diplomat in the Soviet Union sell in the gourd?
"Thank you!" Nona smiled like a flower, "Bramble, forgive my presumptuousness. What do you think of our relationship?"
"Of course I hope to be peaceful and friendly. Miss Nona..."
"Call me Nona!"
"Haha, Nona, like many Chinese, I like Soviet songs and architecture very much. I hope that one day I can go to Red Square and the Kremlin to visit freely. I also welcome you to play freely at the Great Wall. But now...? I am just an ordinary international student!" Jing Jian smiled and made a sorry gesture.
"You are too modest, Bramble." Nona smiled with her mouth covering her mouth, "I personally think that unhappiness will eventually pass. Especially... we still have a common belief."
Looking at Nona's charming blue eyes, Jing Jian smiled slightly: "I like the word faith."
Nona smiled even more: "I also think that in many aspects, we should join hands. Together, Bramble, we need unity. The Soviet Union is in the forefront of the fight against the West, and it is in need of support from comrades from all countries."
"Oh?" Jing Jian smiled, "I really don't know that I am that important. Can Nona be more clear?"
"We need $200 million. Don't worry, you must abide by Western business rules. Of course, the specific cooperation terms can be discussed later." Nona finally stated her purpose.
Jing Jian was very surprised. Did this righteous man think about money and think about it? Or, the Soviet Union was so short of foreign exchange? He actually asked foreign merchants to borrow money? Jing Jianke declined: "I think it is an intergovernment agreement or issuing government bonds in the international market, which is more appropriate."
What a joke, even if there is a great benefit, if you lend money to the Soviet Union casually without the endorsement of the government, how can you stay in China in the future? How can you stay in the United States? Does Nona understand the rules? To be honest, if you really want to borrow money, it is better to buy China's US dollar bonds honestly.
Unexpectedly, Nona persevered: "Bramble, there are some things you don't need to worry about. We promise to handle everything well. And... it will give you enough benefits." Nona of course knew what Jing Jian was worried about.
This made Jing Jian even more worried. I guess Nona is not only a diplomat, but also has a special identity. In my heart, she doesn’t even dare to go to bed now? It’s probably a swallow?
But what...?
Jing Jian thought for a while: "Nona, I don't want to lie to you. This matter is very immature. I don't deny my interest in the Soviet market, nor do I deny the attractiveness of interests to me. But to borrow money directly like this? You need to do a lot of advanced work. Sorry, if I don't solve those problems, I'm not willing to take risks."
Although he still refused, Jing Jian did not shut the door to death this time. Because he suddenly thought that it is impossible to cooperate now, it does not mean that he will not be able to cooperate in the future. As long as the Soviet Union collapses for a few years, many obstacles will no longer exist.
However, such an answer has made Nona look happy. She was just trying her luck, but she didn't expect that Jing Jian would leave a glimmer of hope here: "What do you mean, if other problems are solved, you will have no problem?"
"It can be understood so." Jing Jian smiled, "I don't want to disappoint Miss Meili either."
"Haha, you are also a charming man." Nona smiled charmingly, showing her charming style, "Can you leave a contact number?"
"certainly."
