Chapter 152: Bought it!

"What can a mere 10 billion Eagle dollars do?"

Abe Sang criticized.

"This is for the security of the Xiao Ri Zi nation!"

"Security!"

"Are we going to rely on the protection of the Eagle Country people forever?"

"Baka!"

"You forgot the glory of the Great Ri Zi Empire!"

"You should commit seppuku!"

Minami faced Abe's head-on accusation.

Immediately defended: "Prime Minister, it's not that I'm not working hard, it's really that we have tried our best to scrape together ten billion!"

"And this is still after moving the Olympic Games' fiscal budget to this to have ten billion!"

Minami bowed, apologized, and explained very neatly.

Reasonable, grounded, and difficult.

And Abe Sang said immediately: "Are you stumped by such a small difficulty?"

"Baka! What a bastard!"

Minami asked cautiously.

"Prime Minister!"

"How many billion Eagle dollars are we going to use."

Abe Sang answered directly: "140 billion Eagle dollars!"

Obviously, even a Prime Minister of a country cannot avoid corruption.

Abe Sang directly gave himself a kickback of ten billion Eagle dollars.

"Wha, what?"

"140 billion?!"

Minami and Hojo both let out an exclamation.

But the two reactions were different.

Minami was a desperate wail, while Hojo was a joyful cheer.

Hojo didn't know what to say in his heart.

140 Eagle dollars of equipment!

This is enough for one-quarter of the Self-Defense Team's annual fiscal budget!

This 140 billion Eagle dollar cost is enough to re-equip the entire Self-Defense Team from top to bottom.

And Minami on the side laughed somewhat unbelievably.

In short, laughed out of anger.

"Prime Minister."

"I don't know how much you know about economics."

"But I must say, Xiao Ri Zi cannot afford this 140 billion."

"Unless you use the Self-Defense Team's budget."

"And, the equipment bought with 140 billion Eagle dollars."

"Needs maintenance and care, all kinds of expenses added together. It's countless 140 billions."

Abe looked up, looking at Minami.

Stared at him, not moving at all.

Minami felt a bit hairy under the stare.

Had to apologize and say: "Sorry, Prime Minister! I was out of line just now!"

Abe's complexion looked a bit better then.

"Don't I know the problem you mentioned?"

"What am I doing this for? Isn't it for the future of Xiao Ri Zi?"

"Do you know, after this money is spent."

"It means that Eagle Country has defaulted to our rearmament plan!"

"Military normalization!"

"This is something how many generations of Xiao Ri Zi Prime Ministers have dreamed of!"

"How can you have no big picture!"

Abe Sang said heartbrokenly.

And Hojo on the side was also helping out.

"Yes, yes."

"This is the dream in the hearts of how many generations of Xiao Ri Zi people!"

"If such an opportunity is missed in our hands."

"Don't know how many years we have to wait!"

"Minami! Can you take this responsibility?"

Hojo slapped the table and stood up.

Facing these two aggressive people.

Minami also had to lower his head.

"Prime Minister."

"But we really don't have that much money!"

"What we can take out is only ten billion."

"You are just lazy!"

Hojo scolded.

"Donations, tax increases, charity, so many ways!"

"How do you know it's useless?"

"You are just looking for excuses!"

"Just sorry for the Great Ri Zi!"

"Just sorry for the Emperor!"

"You should commit seppuku!"

Hojo didn't forgive anyone when he was right.

Minami couldn't argue under such circumstances.

Simply gave up.

Said: "Prime Minister, I really have no way."

Abe Sang didn't feel surprised when he heard it.

"Increase taxes, plus donations."

"No matter what."

"Even if I have to beg, I have to get 140 billion."

Abe Sang said decisively.

Didn't leave Minami any room to speak.

"Prime Minister."

"Then what can we buy with 140 billion Eagle dollars?"

Hojo asked.

He didn't care about money or not.

He only knew how to ask Minami for it.

Abe said frankly: "F-35."

"A full 10 aircraft."

"They are used by the Eagle Country military."

"They said Eagle Country's military spending is not enough this year."

"So they plan to sell them to us first."

Abe finished, Hojo immediately said excitedly: "Prime Minister, really?"

"Is it really needed by the Eagle Country military?"

"Then isn't it the genuine version?"

"Simply, I simply don't know what to say."

"What genuine version?"

Minami asked.

He really knows nothing about military affairs.

"You don't even know this?"

Hojo mocked.

Subsequently, he said to Minami: "Simply put, the ones used by their own military are all genuine."

"If it's for foreign trade, it must be a monkey version that has been cut in various ways."

"The difference in combat effectiveness is not just a little bit!"

Hojo finished.

Minami reacted then.

"How much per aircraft?"

"Three hundred million." Abe said.

"So expensive?"

"Our F-35 is only 150 million!"

"No knowledge is no knowledge!"

Hojo said speechlessly.

"Three hundred million can buy the genuine version!"

"You should just burn high incense, if we can buy the genuine version, 500 million per aircraft is considered a bargain."

Minami blushed from Hojo's words.

But he reacted immediately.

"Then these ten aircraft are only thirty billion."

"What about the other 100 billion?"

"That 100 billion, all used to buy one thing."

Abe Sang said.

"100 billion, Eagle dollars!"

"Buy a weapon?"

"Buy what?"

"Nuclear warheads or Eagle Country's aircraft carrier!"

Minami said angrily.

It's not that his cultivation is not good, it's really 100 billion Eagle dollars.

Buy one thing.

This matter is simply shocking.

"How did you know?"

Abe Sang asked.

"Ah, ah? What?"

Minami stammered.

Abe Sang ignored him.

Continued: "Nimitz aircraft carrier."

"Eagle Country priced it at 100 billion Eagle dollars."

"Prime Minister, is what you said true?"

Hojo was so excited he was about to faint.

This is simply, too shocking!

And Minami's mouth hadn't closed yet.

"It's really an aircraft carrier!"

"I was joking!"

Minami, no matter how little he understands military affairs.

Also knows the meaning of an aircraft carrier.

Having an aircraft carrier, the most powerful weapon in the world's navy.

Still Eagle Country's main battle weapon.

Means sea power.

The interests of the ocean are infinite!

At this moment, Minami calmed down.

"Then this means."

"This 140 billion really has to be given."

"And more."

Abe said.

"Eagle Country is also willing to help our Xiao Ri Zi modify the Izumo and Kaga, two ships."

"Modified into aircraft carriers suitable for F-35Cs."

Hojo was now so happy by the good news one after another that he was about to faint.

At this time, he stood up.

Said to Minami: "Mr. Minami, I swear, if you dare to disagree with the Prime Minister's plan, I swear, for the rest of my life, I will be against you everywhere."

And Minami waved his hand and said to Hojo: "Alright, it's not like I don't know the importance."

"I will execute it."

"But tax increases will lead to an increase in fiscal revenue, but our party's votes will be much less. Although all this will increase after our Xiao Ri Zi's military normalization, the pain in between will not be less."

"Prime Minister, are you ready?"

"Of course."

Abe Sang laughed.

He already had an idea in his heart.

That force that he had invested in for a long time but had not yet emerged in Xiao Ri Zi's political arena. ===== CHAPTER 153 =====
