America 1919

Chapter 444: Territory, Territory_3



"No problem, I'll speak to Mr. Hoover right away!"

Donnie said, "Go ahead!"

On the other side, Café Jackson, seeing that Donnie hadn't hung up the phone, knew that Donnie took this matter seriously and immediately went to Herbert Hoover's side, whispering a few words in his ear.

Herbert Hoover nodded, with a smile, "No problem!"

Café Jackson returned to the phone and conveyed Herbert Hoover's reply to Donnie.

"Okay, I'll be in Washington the day after tomorrow, arrange a chance for me to meet with Herbert alone!"

"Understood!"

.

Two days later, Donnie arrived in Washington and at his estate, met with Herbert Hoover, who was already waiting there.

"Mr. Hoover, you look a bit tired, that's not good, in the future, you have to bring happiness to the people of the Federation!"

Herbert Hoover smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Block, please don't joke with me. If I had known running for president was so exhausting, I shouldn't have participated in the election in the first place!"

Well, Donnie confirmed that Herbert Hoover was a successful politician, at least in lying, he was very successful.

"So, how do you find Jackson by your side?"

After inviting Herbert Hoover to sit, Donnie casually chatted with him.

Herbert Hoover showed a satisfied smile, "Jackson is a very thoughtful person, I'm grateful to have him by my side during this time, if it weren't for him, I would even doubt if I could have persisted until now!"

Café Jackson, accompanying them, immediately said, "Mr. Hoover, you are being modest. It's my honor to serve you!"

Seeing the cooperation between them was good, Donnie wasn't worried, and said lightly, "Mr. Hoover, I'm here this time to offer more support for your campaign, I am willing to personally provide another 1 million US Dollars for your campaign fund, hoping this will lead the citizens of the Federation towards a happier life under the right leader."

Herbert Hoover showed a look of surprise, even though his campaign fund was already the most plentiful in US history with the support from Tarot Society members.

Yet, no one thinks there's too much money, the more funds there are, the more people can see his speeches.

"Thank you, Mr. Block, I always believed you are the entrepreneur who thinks most for the citizenry of the Federation, if other entrepreneurs in the United States could learn from you, Mr. Block, it would be the happiness of the Federation's citizens!"

Although he said this, Herbert Hoover also understood clearly that Donnie wouldn't donate another 1 million US Dollars to him without any conditions.

So, after exchanging pleasantries for a long time, Herbert Hoover finally couldn't resist and asked Donnie the reason behind it.

"Venus Bank is planning to develop new tourism projects, but there's an issue, I hope you, Mr. Hoover, can offer some assistance to Venus Bank's tourism industry after becoming president, as this also provides some leisure for the daily life of the Federation's citizens!"

"Haha, what matter could it be, Mr. Block? With your influence in New Jersey, shouldn't this be a simple task!"

Herbert Hoover said with little concern, even feeling that Donnie was making a fuss over nothing, as he was very clear that even if he eventually got elected, his words wouldn't carry as much weight as Donnie's in New Jersey.

"Venus Bank's tourism projects aren't in New Jersey!" Donnie said with a smile.

Herbert Hoover was stunned for a moment and said, "Mr. Block, are you planning to promote the spinach industry in Florida as well?"

At this time Herbert Hoover also realized that if it were a business in New Jersey, Donnie wouldn't need to seek him out at all.

Considering the significance of the spinach and tourism industries, Herbert Hoover suddenly thought Donnie intended to promote the legalization of the spinach industry in Miami too.

Donnie shook his head and said, "Mr. Hoover, you've misunderstood, the tourism industry I mentioned isn't in the United States, during this period I listened to reports from subordinates and they are very satisfied with the geographical environment of the Turks and Caicos Islands, so Venus Bank intends to build a super large amusement park there, but as you know the ownership of the Turks and Caicos Islands is somewhat problematic.

Therefore, my intention is to trouble you, Mr. Hoover, after winning the election, to communicate with the Jamaican government in the name of The White House, asking them to sell the Turks and Caicos Islands to me personally!"

This time, Herbert Hoover really couldn't understand Donnie's intention, buying an entire group of islands, Herbert Hoover believed Donnie certainly had the financial capability, but buying it just to build a super large amusement park?

Since Herbert Hoover could become President of the United States, he certainly had enough intelligence, he understood very well that Donnie definitely wasn't telling him the truth, or at least his entire plan.

But...

That place isn't within the United States, and it has nothing to do with America, while Donnie enjoys extremely high status in the U.S., this matter doesn't seem to affect him.

"Merely convincing the Jamaican government might not be enough to buy the entire Turks and Caicos Islands, dealings with the United Kingdom are also necessary, and those people aren't that easy to negotiate with!"

Although it doesn't affect him, Herbert Hoover still didn't give Donnie a definite answer, considering it involved territorial issues.

Donnie laughed and said, "As for the issues with the United Kingdom, Mr. Hoover, you don't need to worry, I will take care of it!"
