Chapter 101: The Deal with India

Sean was dumbfounded when he received the call from the White House Chief of Staff.

But he immediately stopped what he was doing

and went directly to the White House.

"What's wrong, Mr. President?"

Hans walked into the president's office

and saw the president resting on the sofa.

"Hans, I remember you are of Bharat descent, right?"

"Yes, Mr. President."

Richard certainly knew very well about Hans's Bharat descent; he became Secretary of State because Hans helped him win over a large portion of Bharat-descent voters during the presidential campaign.

Richard looked at Hans.

"Don't you have any plans to return home in glory?"

Upon hearing this, Hans hurriedly denied it: "Mr. President, I am already an Eagle Country citizen, and I am destined to dedicate my life to this."

"That's good."

Richard smiled.

"I intend to send you to visit Bharat."

"What do you think?"

Hans looked puzzled.

Why now? Is this to sideline me? Or what does it mean?

Military morale is hard to fathom; Hans only had one thought in his mind right now.

"Yes, Mr. President."

Hans agreed immediately; he couldn't afford not to agree.

"Isn't Bharat's President Modi always planning to join the five permanent members of the UN Security Council?"

"Isn't Mr. Modi always longing for aid from Eagle Country, some weapons, orders, and the transfer of some industries?"

"Last time he came, I didn't agree to him."

"However, there is an opportunity now."

Richard's eyes flickered.

"I don't know if you are willing to do it."

Upon hearing this, Hans's eyes lit up.

This was a great thing; if this cooperation were achieved,

the profits and political benefits he could earn in the middle would be countless.

"Yes!"

"But, do we have any conditions?"

Hans said.

He knew Richard's character: he never got up early without profit, and he would hit three poles even if there were no dates.

There was definitely something going on.

"Of course."

"There is a small matter in East Asia right now."

"But, the Eagle Country military is currently conducting a war on terror in the Middle East,"

"so we really can't spare any hands."

Richard said.

"If at this time, a major power in Southeast Asia could stir up a little bit of trouble,"

"I think, as president, I would be very happy, right?"

Richard looked at Hans.

"Right, I understand."

At this moment, Hans already knew what the president wanted to say.

"But, the process has some difficulties."

"You should understand. Before seeing results,"

"it's very difficult for Congress to pass it."

Richard added.

Isn't this just drawing a big pie?

Are you asking me to go and catch a wolf with empty hands?

Hans thought.

He had to say somewhat timidly: "Mr. President, what if Modi doesn't believe it?"

"He won't."

Richard walked up and patted him on the shoulder, saying: "You are the Secretary of State of Eagle Country."

"With your status as a guarantee,"

"how could he not believe it?"

"Yes, Mr. President, I understand."

Hans felt Richard's hand on his shoulder pressing down hard.

He immediately understood President Richard's meaning.

"Hahaha, then I wish you a smooth journey?"

Richard smiled.

"Yes, yes, yes."

Hans then turned and walked out the door.

After he left, Richard immediately changed his face.

Being able to create regional trouble at zero cost, or even negative cost,

to interrupt Dongda's development process,

that would be the best.

If it succeeds, it's because he, the president, has long-term vision.

If it fails?

Then wasn't this decision made by Secretary of State Hans himself?

What does it have to do with his great and glorious president?

After Lewis deceived him, he decided not to trust anyone anymore.

Then, he pressed the button on the table.

A cup of coffee was immediately delivered.

"Hmm, it tastes really good."

After Hans went out,

he immediately announced that he would pay a state visit to Bharat.

This immediately caused an uproar.

Although routine visits were the job of the Secretary of State,

Bharat hadn't appeared in the eyes of Eagle Country people for a long time.

After all, no one would like a country full of feces and slaves.

After Hans boarded the plane,

Bharat's President Modi immediately learned the news.

He almost immediately touted this news as an important political achievement.

"Even the world's number one power, Eagle Country, is coming to visit our country."

"Bharat, win!"

This news immediately covered up the biggest debate currently in Bharat.

Regarding the issue of the Kashmir region, a disputed area with neighboring Pakistan.

Modi had long prepared the relevant procedures.

He was ready to use the best procedures to welcome Eagle Country Secretary of State Hans.

That's right, the etiquette of the Brahmin caste.

He had learned about it before.

When Hans's parents hadn't immigrated yet and were still in Bharat,

they were just ordinary Shudras.

By comparison, this would make him feel honored, right?

Modi thought with satisfaction.

After some time,

Modi had long since taken a group of people to the airport

to prepare to welcome Hans.

A few minutes later,

the plane landed.

Hans came out of the cabin door.

As soon as he came down, he saw Bharat President Modi waiting for him in front.

As the number of people on both sides increased,

Hans felt a bit nervous.

After becoming Secretary of State, this was his first time coming to his former motherland, Bharat.

"Child, may Shiva and Brahma bless you."

Hans looked at everything around him in shock.

He had also lived in Bharat for a period of time before.

He knew what such a ceremony and congratulatory words meant.

If he had stayed in the country,

let alone enjoying such a ceremony,

even stepping on the carpet now,

his whole family would have lost their lives.

"Relax, child, this is what you deserve."

Modi said easily.

He was very satisfied with Hans's expression right now.

"May Shiva and Brahma bless you."

Hans didn't know how he should speak according to Brahmin etiquette.

So he repeated Modi's words directly,

which caused Modi to chuckle.

"Child, let's go."

Modi personally led him into the car.

They drove all the way.

Everything within Hans's sight

was something that only the Brahmin caste could come into contact with.

Soft silk, expensive gold,

exquisite decorations, even the road the car drove on

was all covered with red carpets.

This scene deeply shocked Hans.

The education he received since childhood was that he could not come into contact with things of the Brahmin caste.

Even his shadow could not be stepped on by people of the Brahmin caste.

Otherwise, he would die.

Or rather, even death would be a luxury.

And now, he was sitting in a Brahmin's car,

using Brahmin decorations and items,

watching the red carpet under the car extend all the way to the Presidential Palace.

Modi looked at the shocked Hans

and invited him down slowly.

"Child, don't be surprised; all of this is what you earned through bitter cultivation in your previous life."

Hans nodded repeatedly,

but he didn't expect that before he became Secretary of State,

he was just a lowly Shudra.

And all of this was seen by Modi.

He knew that as long as they were Bharat people, after going through all this, any negotiation for him

would be as easy as pie.

Finally, they arrived at the office.

After clearing everyone else out,

Hans said to Modi: "Our president has a deal with you." ===== CHAPTER 102 =====
