Chapter 862 Follow-up

The tacit understanding between East Africa and the United States soon aroused the attention of Britain, France and other countries. Of course, it is more accurate to say that they were dissatisfied, especially the United Kingdom, which was inevitably a little suspicious.

Launching a coup on the same day and then getting along without incident, this seems to be "collusion in advance". The British wanted to wait and see before that, but the two countries did not fight over the Hawaii issue. This is even more British and French speculation was confirmed.

"We seriously suspect that East Africa and the United States reached some kind of tacit understanding before the coup. If not, how could it be such a coincidence that the two countries had coups on the same day, which obviously made sufficient preparations for the carving up of the Hawaiian Islands." British Embassy in Hawaii said the Kingdom’s Minister Wilson and the French Minister on the island, Cabsel.

Kabsl thought so too. He said: "Now that the matter is a foregone conclusion, it is necessary for us to protest to the US government and ask the US government to accept the interests of our two countries."

Why not go to East Africa? The reason is very simple. East Africa only has one Kauai Island, but the United States has a bunch of islands. If you go to East Africa, East Africa will not be able to give up Kauai Island. If you negotiate with the United States, you can at least use other islands to make a fuss.

Soon, the U.S. government received inquiries from Britain and France. In fact, Japan was also aggrieved. But of course, Japan did not have much reputation in the world. It was not among the powerful countries and could not be as confident as Britain and France. They are looking for benefits from the United States.

As a result, President Cleveland soon encountered the expected trouble. Diplomats from Britain and France began negotiations with the United States on the Hawaiian Islands issue.

One of the "perpetrators" in East Africa became a mass eater, and did not know what benefits the United States had given up. It quickly settled the British and French governments.

The most critical step in the Hawaiian Islands issue has yet to be resolved, and that is the American property on the Kauai Islands that has been temporarily "kept" by East Africa.

"Roger has been crying miserably in the Republic of Hawaii these days, pretending to be like that." John Crane muttered.

Rogge's identity cannot be revealed, so John Crane has not told anyone else about Rogge's identity. However, Rogge is apparently one of the main businessmen in Kauai, and some of his actions in Honolulu can easily be reported back. Kauai.

Rogge certainly does not have this kind of energy on his own, but there are many "victims" like him. Dozens of former Kauai businessmen and Americans from Kauai brought an explanation to the Honolulu City Hall, which was somewhat effective.

As for this, the United States naturally cannot sit idly by. After all, it is to protect the legitimate rights and interests of its own businessmen, and it will not look good in the newspapers.

As for the issue of returning the property of American citizens on Kauai, the U.S. Minister to Hawaii soon went to Kauai in person to negotiate with East Africa.

The U.S. Minister to Hawaii, Minister Steven, arrived on Kauai Island on a U.S. warship with an ugly look on his face. He was the main manipulator of this coup in Hawaii.

After all, without his acquiescence, American businessmen would not have the guts to launch a coup in Hawaii. No matter how unbearable the Kingdom of Hawaii is, it is still a country with an army. If an accident does occur, the last resort is the United States.

"That's an East African warship!" Steven said as he looked at the East African Pacific Fleet ship, which was a little bigger than his car.

After all, the local army did not participate in the Hawaiian coup, so Steven's ship was naturally no match for the regular warships of the East African Navy, even the superficial East African Navy's Pacific Fleet.

Although East African gunboats are not as majestic as ironclads, they can serve as main warships in many countries. However, East Africa put three of them on Kauai at once, which made Minister Steven see that East Africa is bound to win Kauai.

But the more this happens, the more Steven hates it. As the leader of the Hawaiian coup, this operation in East Africa is equivalent to poaching Steven's hard work. This is first, second, and most important. Originally, The United States had the opportunity to monopolize the Hawaiian Islands, but due to East Africa's actions, the two countries jointly divided Hawaii.

These losses will eventually be attributed to Steven. After all, the coup was his private act and not authorized by the local government. Therefore, after returning to China, his career will be greatly affected and he will most likely be held accountable.

But it's too late to say anything now. Steven can only try his best to recover losses for the "victims" in the United States to prevent them from suing him when they return home.

After landing in Lihue, Steven was taken directly to the East African Governor's Palace of Hawaii. Looking at the East African Governor's Palace flying the East African flag and the flag of the Kingdom of Northern Hawaii, Steven felt sad again.

Regarding the issue of compensation, East Africa has been negotiating with Minister Steven for a long time. Unlike the previous heroic purchase of properties on Kauai, East Africa now fights for every penny.

In the end, East Africa acquired some American assets at 0.3% higher than the market price, including the share of "Rogg", but the money was equal to the left hand and the right hand.

For some American businessmen who were unwilling to accept it, East Africa also returned their assets, but they could not take them away and could only operate in Kauai, mainly land and real estate.

For these Americans who rely on Kauai, East Africa also has ways to deal with them. They can raise taxes a little bit. In the end, they will obey. It is just to temporarily stabilize the U.S. government, so the East African government will not do this directly until Kauai. Relevant work will be carried out after the construction of all the defense fortifications is completed.

…

"Brother Rogge, don't sigh. At least the money will come back. The worst is to find another place to develop. There are not many opportunities in the country now. With your financial resources, I believe you can still prosper in the country." Enders comforted.

Rogge pretended to smile and said: "Thank you for your comfort, but so many years of hard work have been in vain. These East Africans are simply beasts!"

Rogge's heartbroken look aroused the sympathy of the Americans present, and at the same time he was a little gloating. Fortunately, his previous property was not deployed on Kauai, otherwise Rogge's pitiful situation yesterday would be their today.

"Brother Rogge, what are your future plans?"

Rogge sighed and said: "At least the East Africans lost some money, so I won't lose all my money, so I plan to use the money to go to the west (U.S.) to have a look. The risk of doing business overseas is too great. I This little body can’t stand it at all, and I advise you to stay away from this kind of place of right and wrong in the future.”

His words resonated with everyone. After all, if you can develop well in your home country, who would want to come to the hinterland of the Pacific? Hawaii's location is not even comparable to that of a remote country, and it still has a tropical rainforest climate. If it weren't for some strategic value and relatively good profits, No one would venture here to make a fortune.

"After two years, when I have made enough money, I will definitely return to the United States to invest. Then I will treat you to a drink." Enders consoled her.

However, Enders never imagined that the guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes in front of her was actually an East African spy. As for the future meeting, Enders had never heard anything about Rogge.

No one knows where "Rogg" went in the end. After all, Rogge is just a code name, and he has a dozen or even more such code names.

With everyone reluctant to leave, Rogge led his "workers" to leave the sad place of Hawaii. He stood on the boat and "tearfully bid farewell" to everyone.

Wait for the boat to leave for a while.

"Stationmaster, where should we go next?"

Rogge still looked pitiful at this time. He said enthusiastically: "Let's go to Florida..."
