Starling suffered such a big loss from Ambassador Hans, of course he was unwilling to let it go!

So, after sending off Hans’s ambassador, he immediately summoned Chamberlain, the foreign minister of the British Empire!

After Chamberlain sent the telegram to the country, it caused a wave of concern in the British Empire. Everyone was originally worried that the Russian bear would go along with the Third Reich. In that case, their visit this time would be meaningless.

When he thought of this, Chamberlain was even discouraged and planned to give up this mission and return directly to the British Empire. After all, in his opinion, there was no point in staying with the Russian bear. If Starling was determined to get close to the Third Reich, then nine oxen could not pull her back! However

, he did not expect that the changes would come so quickly. Just when he thought that his mission had failed and the British Empire could not convince the Russian bear, the Kremlin suddenly summoned him!

So, after an urgent discussion, the British decided to hold on to their last hope and give it a try!

Even if they failed, it wouldn’t be a big loss, but if they succeeded, it would be a great help to their current situation!

So, Chamberlain cheered up and immediately drove to the Kremlin!

“”Ahem!”

Chamberlain was choked by the pungent smell of smoke when he walked into Starling’s office!

If he hadn’t been here once before and remembered the location, he would have suspected that he had come to the wrong place!

This doesn’t look like the office of the top leader of the Russian bear. It looks like a factory chimney, with pungent smoke everywhere!

“”Haha, doesn’t Foreign Minister Chamberlain smoke?”

Starling is a heavy smoker. Smoking is a common thing for him. He has to finish several packs of cigarettes almost every day!

For Starling, this is not only a habit, but also a way to relieve work pressure. Sometimes when he is thinking about a problem, he also likes to smoke. He is easily absorbed in it and often smokes a whole pack.

Just now, after Hans’s ambassador left, Starling fell into thinking. He was thinking about national affairs, the war situation in Eastern Europe, and the relationship with the Third Reich and the British Empire. None of these problems are easy to solve, so the more he thinks, the more bored he feels. The more bored he is, the more he smokes!

As a result, his office became smoky, and this is what Chamberlain saw!

“Well, I don’t smoke much. You know, smoking is prohibited in our parliament!”

Chamberlain subconsciously fanned his hands in front of his face to dispel the pungent smell of smoke.

For non-smokers, the smell of secondhand smoke is too bad. This smell gives people an extremely uncomfortable feeling. After smelling it, even the heart seems to feel very uncomfortable.

However, he just fanned twice and then remembered that he was in the office. What would Starling think if he did this in front of her?

Thinking of this, Chamberlain immediately stopped his actions and opened his mouth awkwardly, as if he wanted to explain something.

Starling had been staring at him. After seeing his action, she roughly guessed what he was thinking, so she waved her hand generously, indicating that he didn’t need to be so nervous.

“It’s better not to smoke, smoking is harmful to health!”

Starling laughed and was ready to reveal this topic and introduce the next one.

Chamberlain seemed to have just come to his senses. It was not his fault. Why did he want to apologize just now?

This is a good question. Chamberlain thought about it and understood the root of the problem!

Everything was because he cared too much about the attitude of the bears and hoped that the bears would agree to the conditions of the sun never sets and continue to cooperate with the sun never sets!

It was precisely because of this that when facing the bears, he subconsciously wanted to please the other party, regardless of whether the other party was right or wrong.

After figuring this out, Chamberlain broke out in a cold sweat on his back!

Because he realized that this mentality was very dangerous, which might put him at a disadvantage in the negotiation and even pay a huge price!

Moreover, Starling on the opposite side was an experienced politician. He would definitely be able to see his thoughts, which would make the next negotiations more difficult!

Thinking of this, Chamberlain sat up straight and decided to toughen his attitude to avoid falling into a passive position completely!

“Mr. Chairman, I think your sudden summoning of me this time should be related to the cooperation we proposed before? I wonder how your country has decided on the cooperation between our two countries?”

Chamberlain intends to take the initiative and force the other party to make a clear statement. In this way, he can make some concessions based on the other party’s clear attitude. Otherwise, if he does not know the other party’s bottom line and continues such unclear negotiations, he may lose everything, and even if he loses everything, he may not get what he wants!

Seeing Chamberlain so impatient to reveal his trump card, Starling despised him in his heart, but he did not show any expression on the surface.

He did not answer immediately, but waited for a moment. When Chamberlain’s patience was consumed and his momentum declined, he smiled and replied:”Some people say that the British Empire is the greatest country since the 16th century!”

This beginning made Chamberlain stunned for a moment. He did not expect the other party to say such a thing.

And he was a little confused about what Starling said had to do with the cooperation between the two countries?

However, Chamberlain was still very interested in what Starling said.

“Don’t you think so?”

No one from the British Empire would not want to hear other countries praising their motherland, especially at this moment, when the British Empire fell and the once extremely powerful British Empire fell to the second-rate level in the world, which made people miss the once extremely powerful British Empire even more!

Even Chamberlain, the Foreign Minister of the British Empire, was no exception!

“Yes and no!”

Starlin obviously knew what the other party wanted to hear!

The strength of the British Empire was greatly damaged and its international status declined significantly. At this time, the most sensitive thing is probably what other countries think of them!

Especially the views and attitudes of a world-class power like the Russian Bear. If they can be recognized and praised by the Russian Bear, then for the British Empire, it will undoubtedly greatly boost their national self-confidence!

However, although it was just a matter of talking, Starlin obviously couldn’t give a good word so easily!
