But now it seems they were overthinking it.
Qi Tongwei was not only a talented person, but also a genius and a ruthless tycoon.
He only spent less than a month in northern Myanmar, yet he developed the Great Han Empire into such a powerful force, single-handedly changing the landscape of northern Myanmar.
"Everyone, actually I'm the same as you all. Although I admire Qi Tongwei, I didn't think highly of him. But judging from this incident, we were all wrong."
"Qi Tongwei currently has 10 elite troops under his command, and according to our intelligence, the combat power of these 10 elite troops far exceeds our understanding of the combat power of elite troops."
“Even a country stronger than Myanmar would find it difficult to destroy the Great Han Empire now. With the fall of Wa State, the Great Han Empire has become stronger than ever before. I personally think that we should also change our attitude towards Qi Tongwei and the Great Han Empire accordingly.”
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement with Zhong Zhenguo's suggestion.
Qi Tongwei and the development of the Great Han Empire have indeed exceeded their expectations. Now that Qi Tongwei's influence has increased, they naturally need to assess the situation and re-evaluate him.
"Elder Zhong, I agree with your point of view."
Beside him, a core elder's expression turned solemn, and he spoke in a deep voice.
"With an emperor like Qi Tongwei leading the Great Han Empire, its future is limitless. We should befriend him as soon as possible, and even establish a deep friendship and cooperative relationship."
"This will also be very beneficial to our future development."
Then, another elder spoke.
"I understand that recently, the Great Han Empire has been selling a skincare product called Royal Anti-Aging Elixir in our Dragon Kingdom. It's been selling like hotcakes and has even had a significant impact on top international brands."
"It was just a skincare product at first, and I didn't pay much attention to it. But after I tried it, I found that this product was extraordinary and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it a miracle product."
"According to official data from the Great Han Empire, the researcher of this product is Qi Tongwei. This shows that he is definitely not a simple person. Therefore, I agree with Elder Zhong's opinion and re-evaluate Qi Tongwei and his Great Han Empire."
This meeting lasted for a full three hours.
During these three nine-hour periods, the Longguo cabinet, led by Ling Zhongzhenguo, formulated new policies and guidelines for Qi Tongwei and the Great Han Empire.
They decided to deepen cooperation with the Han Empire, establish friendship, and even set up diplomatic relations between the two sides.
……
After the meeting.
After the other elders left, Zhong Zhenguo did not return to his own office, but went to Elder Wei's office instead.
Mr. Wei is also a cabinet elder, and the other party is also the head of the Ministry of National Defense.
If the country wants to sell or trade large quantities of heavy weapons, it must obtain Wei Lao's approval.
"Elder Zhong~?"
When Old Wei saw Zhong Zhenguo come in, he was stunned for a moment, then his eyes lit up and he waved to him.
"You've come at the perfect time. I happen to have some free time right now. Come and play a game with me."
Mr. Wei has a special hobby: playing chess.
Zhong Zhenguo sat down opposite Old Wei and said quietly.
"Old Wei, I don't have your fancy. I think you understand why I came to see you, right?"
They have been working together for many years and know each other very well.
Zhong Zhenguo naturally understood that the other party was no ordinary person.
"You're such a spoilsport."
Old Wei gave a wry smile and put the chess pieces he had already taken out back.
Then, he looked up at Zhong Zhenguo and became serious.
"Old Zhong, if I'm not mistaken, you came to see me because of Qi Tongwei, right?"
Zhong Zhenguo smiled and nodded.
"This is too easy for you."
"Guess again, what exactly is my purpose in coming to see you?"
Old Wei laughed heartily.
"I'm in charge of national defense. The Great Han Empire wanted to buy a batch of fighter jets from our Dragon Kingdom a few days ago, but I refused. Isn't that why you came to see me?"
Zhong Zhenguo nodded.
"You're so perceptive; nothing gets hidden from you. You're right, I came to see you because of this."
"Old Wei, we already discussed this in the meeting just now. Qi Tongwei and the Great Han Empire are not the same as before. We must change our attitude towards them."
"They need a batch of fighter jets, which is not a big deal for our Dragon Kingdom. We can take this opportunity to get closer to them and establish diplomatic friendship."
"What do you think?"
Upon hearing this, Old Wei's expression turned serious.
He didn't speak immediately, but frowned, seemingly lost in thought.
He was in charge of weapons sales; if it was just the sale of ordinary land weapons, he wouldn't give it much thought.
However, the sale of such large commodities, especially fighter jets, must be handled with great care, because if not handled properly, it could lead to a series of problems.
Although they are not afraid of problems, in practice they still prioritize avoiding problems.
In truth, he was still very willing to sell weapons to the Great Han Empire. This was not only because Qi Tongwei was originally from the Dragon Kingdom, but also because the Great Han Empire he established had a deep connection with the Dragon Kingdom.
More than that, he greatly admired Qi Tongwei's recent series of astonishing actions in northern Myanmar.
He also had high expectations for Qi Tongwei.
"Old Wei, do you still have any concerns?"
Seeing that Old Wei did not speak, Zhong Zhenguo frowned and asked a question.
In the Qi Tongwei matter, he was the main person in charge among the cabinet's senior officials.
Therefore, he naturally had to pay much more attention than others.
After all, this matter concerns their relationship with the Great Han Empire, and also the future interests of the Dragon Kingdom.
"Not at all."
Old Wei came to his senses and shook his head slightly.
He looked at Zhong Zhenguo with a serious expression and said in a deep voice.
"Elder Zhong, Qi Tongwei and the Great Han Empire are currently at the eye of a storm. If we sell weapons to them, we will probably be caught in the vortex of this storm as well. If something happens then, it will be difficult for us to extricate ourselves."
In recent years, China has developed very rapidly in both its economy and military, which has naturally aroused the fear and dissatisfaction of some hegemonic countries.
Especially the group led by the United States, which often causes trouble for them internationally.
So he still had some concerns.
Zhong Zhenguo instantly understood what Elder Wei meant, and he laughed heartily.
“Old Wei, your concerns are valid, but I don’t think we need to pay attention to what might happen. Think about it carefully: even if we stop selling weapons to the Great Han Empire, will some people with ulterior motives just let it go and stop causing trouble for us?”
"So, I don't think the sale of weapons has anything to do with what you're worried about. On the contrary, if we sell weapons to the Great Han Empire, it will actually strengthen our relationship with them and give Qi Tongwei face. In our Dragon Kingdom's terms, it's like forging a good relationship, isn't it?"
Elder Wei's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
To become an elder of the Inner Cabinet, his vision and perspective are naturally beyond the reach of ordinary people.
After hearing what Zhong Zhenguo said, he immediately understood what the other party meant and agreed with it.
"Haha, good. It seems I was too cautious. Elder Zhong, I will send someone to contact Qi Tongwei's people right away."
……
Myawaddy, the capital of northern Myanmar.
Qi Tongwei is currently handling government affairs.
Through this war, the Han Empire greatly expanded its territory. As the country expanded, various issues arose one after another.
Although he delegated many things to Su Qidu and Lu Bingkun, becoming a hands-off manager, there were still some important matters that he needed to personally oversee.
After all, he was the emperor of the Han Empire.
However, dealing with this kind of thing is not a big problem for him.
Just then, a servant walked in.
"Your Majesty, Commander-in-Chief Su requests an audience."
Suqidu?
Qi Tongwei was somewhat surprised.
Wasn't this guy busy dealing with things in Wa State these past few days? Why is he suddenly coming to see him?
Is there something important going on?
"Let him in."
A moment later, footsteps were heard, and Su Qidu walked in.
"Your subject, Su Qidu, pays his respects to Your Majesty."
Su Qidu respectfully bowed to Qi Tongwei.
Qi Tongwei nodded slightly.
"what's up?"
A look of excitement appeared on Su Qidu's face.
"Your Majesty, someone from the Dragon Kingdom just came over. They said they are willing to sell us fighter jets. I think this matter is very important, so I came to report to you as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Qi Tongwei was taken aback.
They had expressed their desire to purchase fighter jets to China more than once, but the other party had politely declined each time.
He had originally planned to purchase it from other channels, but unexpectedly, the Dragon Kingdom suddenly changed its mind at this time!
However, he soon understood why the Dragon Kingdom had suddenly changed its attitude.
It must be related to their war with the Wa State Alliance Army.
Through this battle, their Great Han Empire directly destroyed the Wa State and annexed its territory. Now, the strength of the Great Han Empire has been greatly enhanced, and its territory has become more expansive.
Moreover, the number of soldiers under his command has exceeded 100,000!
The Great Han Empire today is completely different from what it was before!
The top leadership of the Dragon Kingdom must have seen this, which is why they suddenly changed their attitude towards them.
This is a good thing!
“Very good.”
He looked at Su Qidu and said in a deep voice.
"Since the other party has changed their mind and is willing to sell us fighter jets, then you should coordinate with them to purchase as many fighter jets as possible within their means. Don't be afraid to spend money."
Qiu said, "By the way, their J-series fighter jets are very good. When you go to negotiate with them, try to buy this series."
Ling is not afraid to spend money and is willing to spend money, but their money doesn't come from thin air. Since they are going to spend it, they should spend it wisely.
He had no interest in those scrap metal pieces that would soon be obsolete.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Sisuqi nodded respectfully, taking Qi Tongwei's words to heart.
Erhai Lake...
Kowloon.
Zhong Zhenguo soon learned from Elder Wei that the Great Han Empire wanted to purchase the J-series fighter jets, and he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
⑤ This Qi Tongwei has quite the appetite.
The J-series fighter jets are the ace fighter jets of their Dragon Country, and even in their military, they are considered very advanced strategic weapons.
He had to admit that Qi Tongwei's judgment was incredibly sharp!
However, despite the other party making such a request, they did not refuse.
After all, they had already promised to maintain a good relationship with the other party. If they went back on their word, it might offend the other party, which would be counterproductive.
