Looking at the old father sitting in front of the cabin, Carmen walked forward and looked at the pile of wood by the lake in surprise.
My dear father, what are you doing?
Galen Ship…shrinked version.Wiping the sweat on his forehead, Jacono looked at the unfinished keel by the lake happily and said to his beloved young son.
Garen Ship?What's the use of this thing?Carmen looked at his father in confusion.
It would be useless if it had conquered the Pacific Ocean.Jacono said bluntly, that including us, all of this is useless.
He said something meaningless.But Carmen seemed to be used to his father saying things that people couldn't understand, so he didn't say anything, but just sighed with the attitude of the old man.
…Okay, but do you know how to build a ship?
have no idea.Jacono smiled happily and pointed the saw at the keel that had already appeared slightly in its prototype. Although it was just a piece of wood, there were many tricks inside.Includes how to deal with wood, including how to splice wood.It took me a whole year to create this keel.Although it failed many times, the process was unexpectedly interesting.
Carmen glanced at his father in surprise and then looked at the keel seriously.
Unbelievable...no one helped you?
Sadies wanted to find a boatman for me, but I refused.I want to try to figure it out by myself and see what happened to this ship.Throwing the saw in his hand aside, Jacono picked up mineral water from the wooden stakes beside him, tilted his head and drank a few puffs.
Looking at his father who was having fun, Carmen remained silent for two seconds and spoke.
I heard you have something to ask me
Give up that prophecy.Jacono did not look at him, but looked at the keel.
Carmen was stunned by his father's sudden speech.
After a while, he spoke with difficulty.
Why?
Jacono moved back to his gaze and looked at his son's eyes seriously.
Babies will one day leave their parents and learn how to walk on their own feet.They can tell us a lot, but they can't tell us more.If we continue along this path, the future we will face will probably be more frustrating than the ending they have won.
...But if you listen to the wise man's motto, wouldn't you avoid many detours?
Is the detour necessary to be a mistake?Jacono asked back.
Carmen was slightly stunned and fell into silence.
Seeing that his son did not speak, Jacono continued meaningfully: Human beings should pray for wisdom from the sages, rather than placing the future on a more distant future.
Although history has changed, the trend should not be wrong.The next few decades will be artificial intelligence, then the technological explosion caused by materials science, and then the failure to agree with his father's point of view, Carmen whispered.
That may not be true.Jacono hummed, walked over and picked up the saw. Did you see this keel?If I tell you directly how to build a Garen ship, how to build a steamship, and then one day ‘I’ die, can you build an aircraft carrier?
...That's a scientist's business.Carmen said helplessly.
Science and capital have always been grasshoppers on the same rope.Technology determines the space for human life, and capital opens up this space, which is the essence of science and capital.Have you returned all your economics knowledge to Harvard professors?I suggest you take the Bear Potter function chapter again.
The old father returned to his wooden stake and started working hard, no longer paying attention to his son.
After standing by the lake for a long time, until it became dim in the sky, Carmen turned around and left his father's wooden house.
……
The next morning, Jiang Chen took a flight to Australia.
Due to the size of the airport and passenger flow, the airport in New Zealand's Koro Island currently only opens direct flights to two major neighbors, Australia and New Zealand. Therefore, if you want to arrive from China, you can only fly to Australia to transfer first.
After a while, Jiang Chen finally got off the plane on Koro Island, but it was already late at night.
When he walked out of the airport, Dilraba Dilmurat was already waiting at the airport gate.
Go to the Presidential Palace.After getting on the car, Jiang Chen said directly.
Nodding, Di Lieba started the car and got on the road.
Don't you have to go home and rest first?She asked casually while driving.
No need, if you can't see me, I'm afraid that someone will not be able to sleep well.Jiang Chen teased, then leaned on the seat and closed his eyes to rest.
Di Lieba smiled pursed her lips and stopped talking along the way.
When he arrived at the Presidential Palace, after explaining his identity to the guard, Jiang Chen was soon released and came to Zhang Yaping's office under the reception of a waiter.
After not seeing each other for a few days, this guy has become much haggard.It was obvious that all kinds of troubles had tormented him very much. After seeing Jiang Chen, he was obviously relieved and couldn't wait to get up to meet him.
You're back.Zhang Yaping smiled bitterly and said to Jiang Chen.
Don't ask me what to do, tell me the situation.Jiang Chen said concisely.
Zhang Yaping nodded and began to introduce what happened in the past two days to Jiang Chen.
First of all, after Ivan ordered the sinking of fishing boats that interfered with the construction of military facilities, he led his troops to confront the coast guard ships in the Philippines at the border.
At first, the Philippine coast guard was very arrogant. Although he could not defeat the Chinese coast guard ships in the north, they did not take these three speedboats from the Xin Kingdom seriously.
However, just as they were about to break into the Xinguo territorial waters to seek people, Ivan and others took out their weapons without any face.
Now the Filipino monkeys were confused. They never thought that the new Congress would have such courage, and they had no idea for a moment.
Although the coast guard ships were equipped with light weapons, only a few of them dared not make such decisions that could cause serious diplomatic problems.
After all, if the gun is fired, the problem will be serious.
So they had to confront Ivan and the others and report the news at the same time.
Finally, Philippine President Aquino finally contacted Zhang Yaping.
However, Zhang Yaping did not realize what happened on Crescent Island. After all, national defense is controlled by Star Ring Trading Company.
Realizing that something was wrong, Zhang Yaping immediately contacted Ivan and then learned the whole story.
Well, when he heard Ivan sinking those fishing boats that were trolling, no, the pirate ship, he couldn't help but curse in his heart, "It's so fucking relief."
Although the Panu Islands and the Philippines are not a feud, the people have been resentful for a long time.
However, after all, he is the president of the new country, and he should consider more about national interests rather than personal feelings. After calming down for two seconds, a drop of cold sweat slid past his forehead.
Just yesterday, Aquino called him again and said that if the shipwreck salvage cannot start within three days, the Philippines will retain the option of solving the problem through military means to ensure the legitimate rights and interests of its citizens overseas.
However, when Jiang Chen heard Zhang Yaping's last words, he was immediately unhappy.
You should have a limit on how shameless this person is, right?
When can you Philippine citizens go to other countries' territorial waters to blackmail construction workers, bully local fishermen, and hinder the construction of military facilities be called legitimate rights?
Why don’t you go to Guam to ask your US military father for money?
Legal rights and interests of %¥%.Jiang Chen immediately cursed, military means?It's a joke, I can't kill you.
It has been a long time since he swears so much.
The Philippines has 120,000 active troops... We may not be able to defeat one of their brigades.Zhang Yaping whispered.
Jiang Chen glanced at him and smiled haha.
Who said he wanted to fight them?
But they are already so threatening.Zhang Yaping said with a bitter face.
The Philippines has been carefully maintaining its image as a "weak" and "victim" on the issue of maritime rights, so as to win the sympathy of the international community.It is absolutely impossible for them to send ground troops to war with us.
But
Zhang Yaping still seemed to be a little unbelievable, but Jiang Chen interrupted his speech.
In addition, the most important thing is China and the United States.Do you remember what I said to you?Keep a neutral position and not turn to either of these two behemoths.If the Philippines takes military action against us, it will inevitably lead us toward China, and China will definitely not miss this opportunity to break through the first and second island chains and actively provide us with assistance.The United States will not want to see that China has an additional maritime military base in the Western Pacific, which will inevitably restrict its younger brothers from being too over-the-top.
In the cultural circle, the new country is close to China and the United States ideologically. This situation has led to both sides thinking that the country may be on its own side.
Because we don’t take sides, we are absolutely safe.Jiang Chen patted President Zhang on the shoulder and said earnestly.
Although he thought he was right, Zhang Yaping always felt that it was a bit far-fetched.
But why don’t we stand on the side of the United States and continue the diplomatic strategy of the former government.He whispered.
Jiang Chen raised his eyebrows.
Because I don't want to.
