Chapter 1117: Chapter 555: I Have a Friend Who Can Fly a Plane—4

Of course, it would be nice if no one disturbed me.

But evidently, that’s unlikely.

“Mr. Leader, Mr. Gustav Stresemann has arrived,” Martin, the confidential secretary, said from behind.

“Let him in.”

Soon, a man with a Mediterranean complexion and somewhat protruding eyes walked in.

He was Gustav Stresemann, the chairman of the “Human Progress and Innovation Convention Organization.”

“Mr. Leader.” He bowed respectfully and then called out to Casare.

“Get a chair.”

Victor said helplessly, “Do I really need to say it?”

Martin and the bodyguard nearby blushed immediately.

If the former Guard Commander Joseph Xiafei was here, he would have had the sense.

“Thank you.” Gustav Stresemann said to them, sitting up straight like a soldier.

“What’s the matter? Does the organization have something?”

“France has withdrawn its application to join the ‘Human Progress and Innovation Convention Organization’.”

“Those petty French, just because we took over Haiti without telling them, they couldn’t handle it themselves, can they blame us?”

Victor nearly laughed, waving his hand, “They’re useless, let them withdraw, I’m afraid they’d hold me back on the battlefield, is that all?”

“Germany has sent someone to contact me…”

“Cough, cough, cough!”

Victor nearly choked, coughing violently, immediately sitting up straight, big eyes staring, “What? They want to join the ‘Human Progress and Innovation Convention Organization’?”

“The United States has thirty thousand troops stationed in Germany.”

Gustav Stresemann smirked and shook his head, “Germany wants to borrow from the Ren Lian.”

“???!!!”

“Borrow?!”

“Internal turmoil in the United States has led to stock market declines and systemic financial tremors. Although it hasn’t collapsed yet, Germany relies heavily on American support, but now the United States is massively withdrawing, and many German factories are facing financial difficulties…”

So that’s how it is!

“Why not go to the American Bank? European banks?” Victor asked curiously.

Gustav Stresemann shook his head, “They didn’t say, but I think Europe and America are making things difficult for them, asking too much.”

He paused, “Our credit is decent worldwide.”

In this world of mediocrity, Mexico is quite good.

“But our internal loans are for our own people, and Germany just talks about borrowing?” Casare also chimed in, “That’s too easy.”

“They are willing to offer high interest.” Gustav Stresemann said.

“What do you think?” Victor asked back, “I want to hear your opinion.”

The other contemplated for a moment, “Mr. Leader, we lack assets in Europe, we might take this opportunity to enter the European market, especially the Krupp Company. Although it’s bankrupt, its reputation worldwide is still valuable. Most importantly, Mexico needs industrial workers, and under Germany’s dual system, their workers are unparalleled in the world.”

Understood, understood!

So, they’re suggesting turning Germany into Mexico’s labor supplier?

Like how the Philippines provides Filipino maids to the world.

Just like Ukraine provides wombs to Europe.

Victor’s interest was piqued immediately.

“Is it possible?”

“Very possible, Germany’s unemployment rate has been consistently high, especially with the textile worker protests in the Ruhr Industrial Zone killing a policeman, the government is very troubled. The gap between East and West Germany is too big. If we sign a contract with them, requiring them to supply us with a certain number of workers each year, it’s very likely the Germans will agree. We’re not asking for their lives, they will slowly retreat.”

“Once they have nowhere to retreat, we can demand even more.”

Casare listened on the side, looking at Gustav Stresemann, secretly cursing inside.

Pah!

Just like me, not a good person!

Victor stood up, pacing slowly, waited for a few minutes, “Contact them privately, let Cuauhtémoc discuss with them.”

“Okay, I’ll arrange it.”

Gustav Stresemann nodded vigorously, suddenly seeming to remember something, “The Black Panther Party’s liaison in the ‘Human Progress and Innovation Convention Organization’ was arrested by the police…”

“What’s going on? Why did the Mexican Police arrest him?”

“He tried to assault a Soviet woman who immigrated here after getting drunk, and she knocked him out with a punch.”

“…”

What a mess!

“Let him sit in there and cool off, I think Black people must have their organs in their heads!”
