After a long reception process, Dulin was finally able to talk to Hazlett in private, while Ophelia was invited by the queen and princess to taste some flowers and have afternoon tea.
"Dulin, my friend, can you tell me what you need me to help you with when you come here this time?" Hazlett's words were very straightforward, with no intention of hiding anything.
In this country, Hazlett is the representative of the fatuous king, but in fact Hazlett is not particularly fatuous and incompetent.
There used to be a picky and sensitive giant lying beside him, and he could not express his ideals of revitalizing the principality, otherwise the federation would not mind changing its neighbor.
It is not an easy thing to be able to sit firmly in the position of king until now. Domestic conflicts and pressure from the federation have allowed Hazlett to maintain an image of being incompetent and allowing himself to be controlled by the federation. , and ensure the integrity of the royal family and the country.
These operations are really not easy, but it is a pity that there are always a few wise people, especially in small countries that lack educational resources.
Du Lin pursed his lips and said, "Financial assistance, long-term large orders, in exchange for a promise."
Hazlett nodded noncommittally, without making any statement. He thought for about a minute and asked softly, "IFTO?"
"Yes, IFTO!" Dulin adjusted his sitting posture and continued, "Now we have encountered some small troubles, but it is obvious that these troubles will become a thing of the past. The cabinet has started a new round of foreign policy. IFTO will definitely be implemented.”
"So for some reasons I was temporarily responsible for part of it, and then I came here to get your help. I also hope that the Principality of Oleks can become one of the member states of IFTO."
Hazlett did not immediately reply to Dulin, but asked about other things, "I heard that some countries withdrew from the IFTO meeting because of some of your issues, and the meeting was postponed because of this. People have a saying that it may not be possible." will continue to be held.”
He looked at Du Lin with a half-smile, "Besides, when the International Financial and Trade Organization was first established, we were not invited. This makes people feel a little strange, you know what I mean."
Hazlett's meaning was very obvious. When there were no problems, he and his country could not be thought of. Now that IFTO is almost in ruins, the Yaoxing Empire has only thought of this small country not far away.
It's impossible to say that he didn't have any emotion at all. It was like a certain big boss and a group of little brothers were preparing to assist poor out-of-school girls. Unexpectedly, the assistance project had just begun and was forcibly stopped by the police.
At this time, the little brothers backed down, stopped playing, and were ready to go home, but the big boss still wanted to continue doing this, so he found other little brothers and asked everyone to have sex together surrounded by the police. .
You don't call me when it's easy to do, but you only think of me now when it's hard to do. Such differential treatment will indeed make many people unhappy.
Moreover, joining the international financial and trade organization is not all good. There are also some disadvantages. In particular, the inclusion of member states in the Star Yuan or the United Currency Settlement Area is enough to cause a lot of criticism.
In the end, it can be said that all member states will be tied to the chariot of the Shining Star Empire. Sometimes, due to the Shining Star Empire's own reasons, they, the member states, may share the losses.
When making money, not every profit may go into your own pocket. Who is willing to take the initiative to participate in such a thing
Unless the Shining Star Empire can carve out a considerable portion of its interests, such as the right to issue a joint currency, only in this way can the interests of each member country be protected from infringement.
But is this possible
Obviously it is impossible. Once the right to issue currency is liberalized, who knows whether these backward small countries will secretly print currency and circulate it on the market, allowing others to bear the losses caused by inflation, so this will always be A disease.
Unless these problems are solved, others will never be willing to join international financial and trade organizations.
Dulin couldn't help laughing at this. He shook his head while laughing, which made Hazlett a little strange, "Did I say something wrong?"
Du Lin shook his head again, "No, you didn't say anything wrong. Your view is actually very mainstream, and it's not necessarily wrong, but you made a mistake."
Hazlett leaned forward slightly, showing a listening attitude, and then Dulin sighed, "This is not a negotiation, but a relatively polite request."
Hazlett's expression changed in the next second, but Dulin didn't seem to intend to continue talking about the matter peacefully. He directly spoke about the core issue, assistance, and orders.
"The Empire will definitely pay enough attention to its close friendly countries, and it will not be a fool to some countries that are unwilling to maintain a highly consistent position with the Empire."
"Financial assistance, some technological assistance, including a large number of orders, are all prepared for friends. His Highness King Hazlett, do you think you are a friend of the empire?"
"Do you think you are my friend?"
Hazlett's face became more and more embarrassed. Dulin did not follow the diplomatic rules and directly gave him a hard fist. It was a bit scary to hit him.
Once the people know that they have lost financial aid and orders from the empire because of him, those idiots who have been ready to take action will definitely oust him.
This is the good thing about small countries. Even if the political power changes, it will not affect the international situation.
But how can those people understand that once he joins IFTO, if the empire encounters an economic recession or a financial recession in the future, all member states will eventually have to pay for the empire's losses.
But he couldn't refuse. This is the tragedy of small countries and the strength of international powers.
He took a deep breath to suppress the anger in his heart, "I need to discuss this with the ministers."
Du Lin shook his head again, "No, you don't need to. You just need to tell me if you are my friend."
"Is this how you and the Empire treat friends?" Hazlett immediately retorted, "Forcing us to bow our heads in a strong way is what a friend does?"
Dulin couldn't help laughing, "That's how I treat my enemies. When I treat my friends, I will give them enough assistance and orders."
"The world is undergoing tremendous changes every minute and every second. The prevalence of internationalism is destined to make some countries eliminated by the entire international community in the next few years or more."
Dulin raised his chin slightly with a playful smile, "We have many choices, but you only have one choice, His Royal Highness King Hazlet!"
"Your answer will determine the future fate of you and this country. Please cherish and make good use of the power in your hands, and make appropriate choices for yourself and them on behalf of the people of this country!"
I will be taking my children to Beijing in the near future. There will be slight changes in the update. Please forgive me.
