The Cold War: Jumping back and forth between the two camps

"if not?"

Dunn waved his hand with some pride. He felt satisfied to see his brother's expression. In his impression, Antonio always had a zombie face and rarely showed any expression.

"What do you think? This kind of thing is extremely convenient in wartime! As long as there is some water, even cold water, you can make a delicious meal in the shortest time!"

Antonio didn't say anything, but tasted the steak again before putting down his fork.

"That's right! But this thing is only useful in times of war, and it's not very useful in the current situation!

Although the taste is acceptable, it is still somewhat different from food cooked over an open flame!"

Antonio gave his own evaluation, which did not surprise Dunn.

After all, something like a self-heated pot is a pre-prepared meal, and the taste of pre-prepared meals cannot be compared with freshly made food.

Especially in this era when technology and labor were not so developed, even pre-prepared meals did not have that long a shelf life.

Basically, it is only suitable for some emergency needs on the battlefield, but the problem is that there are few wars in the world now, and the U.S. military in particular has not participated in many wars.

"It doesn't matter. According to our CIA intelligence, a war will soon break out on the peninsula. When our army joins the war, I will need you to convince those guys in the military logistics department to use our products!"

Antonio Dunn had no taboos. Everything could be blamed on the CIA anyway, and Antonio would not take his brother too seriously.

"Very quickly. How quickly?"

Antonio also became interested and was keeping a close eye on the situation on the peninsula.

However, he is now in charge of logistics, and he doesn't know much about the combat intelligence on the peninsula.

"I'm telling you, don't tell anyone, or I won't be able to afford the charge of leaking secrets!"

Dunn made a serious expression.

"As you know, I've been assigned to work in East Asia. According to the intelligence we've gathered, there will definitely be a war on the peninsula this year. And according to more accurate information, it's very likely that the war will break out in June, which is next month. But we can't confirm the authenticity of this intelligence, so we haven't reported it yet!"

"next month?"

Antonio was also shocked by the news given by Dunn. If a war would break out within this year, he could still accept it. After all, the news of the breakdown of negotiations in the peninsula was also reported in the newspapers.

But the outbreak of war in June was truly beyond Antonio's expectations.

"Not only that, according to our intelligence analysis, the troops in the south are no match for the troops in the north! Once the war starts, the south will surely fall into defeat. If we still want to control the situation on the peninsula, we will definitely join the war!"

Dunn sighed.

“Indeed, although there were a large number of remnant Japanese troops in both armies, as the second-line troops of the Japanese army at that time, their combat effectiveness was not strong.

But compared to the south, a considerable part of the troops in the north have fought against the Japanese army in Northeast China, and the combat effectiveness of these troops is very strong!

Once a fight breaks out, the chances of the South winning are really slim!"

Antonio is worthy of being a major general who came from the East Asian battlefield. Although he has never been to the peninsula, he is well aware of the situation in the peninsula.

"So, once our country's army joins the war, you see this kind of thing will be of great use! Don't worry, you will also get a share of the profits!"

Dunn said in a very seductive tone, he also knew that Antonia was not a stubborn person.

"Okay, leave these things with me. I'll use them to convince those guys from the Ministry of Defense!"

Anthony nodded. If a war really broke out, he could indeed grab a certain share from the companies that supplied the logistics of the U.S. army, especially if the U.S. army had to go to the battlefield.

Dunn's finished military rations can definitely achieve a monopoly to a certain extent.

Even if the food factory that produced these military rations was not Dunn's industry, Antonio would make the right choice at that time. Moreover, supporting his own industry could bring him practical benefits, so Antonio would not refuse it.

"Tell me more about your food factory!"

Dunn told Antonio all about his plan to open a factory on an isolated island together with Feng Enshuo.

"Not bad! I didn't expect you to be so smart! But you can't let those Chinese people have the final say in the factory. You must send some of your own people to the factory!"

After listening to Dunn's narration, Antonio nodded in appreciation and also gave his own suggestions.

"I know. The factory doesn't have many orders right now, but I'm not in a hurry. Besides, the first reason I came to China this time was to see you to get the order, and the second was to go home and see if I could send my father to the isolated island. If he was in charge, I would feel more at ease!"

"Forget it, Dad!"

Antonio shook his head and refused.

"If you open a factory in China in the future, you can let him take charge. If you go to the Far East, don't bother him! Let our uncle's son Dario go! He is also someone our family can trust!"

The Dario that Anthony was talking about was Dunn's cousin, Dario Batomani.

When Dunn just came back from Japan, his family had a meal with his uncle's family, and he got to know his cousin.

Knowing that this cousin has some business acumen, even my father plans to hand over several of his restaurants to him.

"That's fine too. I'll go back and ask him if he's willing!"

Dunn nodded. After all, his father was planning to hand over the restaurant business to his cousin. Whether the other party was willing or not was another matter.

"It doesn't matter whether you like it or not. You have to go even if you don't want to!"

Antonio frowned and said majestically.

"If he doesn't want to go, just tell him directly that he has to go whether he wants to or not. I say that!"

Dunn rarely saw Antonio show such a domineering side.

This surprised Dunn a little, because his family and his uncle's family have always had a good relationship, including the relationship between their second generation, which has always been handled well.

But when I was young, I seemed to have heard that this cousin was rather naughty and was often punished by his older brother.

"So tough?"

Dunn said weakly. His elder brother acted so domineering that even Dunn felt a little timid.

When he was a child and was naughty, he was often punished by his elder brother.

"Do you know what it means to get an order from the military?"

Antonio asked back, but Dunn didn't say anything. It is not easy to get orders from the United States, but once you get them, as long as there are no problems, your wealth will definitely increase dramatically.

In comparison, some South Korean chaebols and Japanese companies developed by receiving large orders from the US military during the Korean War.

"Once the war breaks out, if the Red Empire does not intervene, then it will be fine, and I will probably make a small fortune. But once the Red Empire intervenes, the war will enter a state of chaos, and it will definitely not end in two or three years! Then the money I make will not just be a small fortune!

If we do it well, our entire family will definitely be among the top families in the United States!

Even after I retire in a few years, I can use the capital gained from this war to become a governor!"

Antonio said with great confidence.

Dunn's eyes lit up at his brother's words. If that was the case, then the future would undoubtedly be bright for Dunn and the Batmanni family.

"If you become governor, is there a chance you can become a general?"

Dunn asked weakly.

If I can push my elder brother to the position of the supreme leader, then the family will be completely prosperous. Even if my treason is exposed in the future, who would dare to say anything with my elder brother protecting me?

Antonio looked at Dunn deeply. He thought that his ambitions were already big, but he didn't expect that his brother's ambitions were even bigger than his.

"When I'm about 60 years old, I can give it a try! Even if I fail, I can try to become a deputy commander or secretary of state!

If that doesn’t work, we can only count on our descendants!”

Dunn was silent this time. He didn't say anything. At this moment, he suddenly remembered the campaign tactics of Comrade Jianguo in later generations.

If the day ever comes that my brother runs for election, I can give it a try.

If that set of tactics is used, it can basically be said to be a dimensionality reduction attack. If you want to use that set of tactics in this era, you really have to think carefully.

There's no point in thinking so much now.

"You choose to be single now, are you looking for a reliable political marriage?"

Dunn asked again.

"There is this aspect in mind!"

Antonio nodded in acknowledgement.

"If there is a suitable person, I would choose to do that! But I still prefer to be alone!"

"I understand! I will let my cousin go to East Asia with me when we get back!"

After learning about his brother's ambitions, Dunn would of course choose to support him unconditionally.

After all, if it is good for your family, it will also be good for you.

Once my brother's ambition comes true, even the smallest one, becoming the governor of a state in the United States.

You can also make a lot of profit from it.

I didn't expect that this time when I came to Washington, I would have such an unexpected gain.

Originally, Dunn's idea was just to use his brother's connections to get the military order and make some money.

Now that he knew his brother's ambition, Dunn suddenly felt that his vision was a little narrow.

Dunn stayed at Antonio's house that day. The next day, after leaving the samples, he took a boat to New York again.
