"Haha, you probably won't have any chance to study in China. No one will allow you to study in China for a few years without work. In fact, there are many opportunities for study in life. When you go back, I will give you some books you can take back to read. If not, I can also donate a library and related books to Kabul University." In fact, Jarrill went to China for study in China. Whether anyone would object or not let go, Chen Kangjie didn't know whether he would agree. At least he didn't know whether Matthew De would agree.

However, at least from Chen Kangjie's perspective, he was subjectively unwilling to do so. People who entered the official career, especially in Aguo, who had just experienced war, were not stable. If Jarrill gave up his current position and left, he would either not be able to go back or his career would be better in the future. Both situations exist.

One carrot and one pit, this is not only true in China, but also outside.

Another situation is that the largest force in Afghanistan is not the government led by Matthew, but the United States with a huge military power.

The United States has five legions stationed in five places in Afghanistan, which is equivalent to mastering the national defense and security of the entire country. As for the security forces formed by the new government, to be honest, they play a supporting role in the US military. Their equipment and combat effectiveness are much worse than those of the US military, which means they play a similar role as the police.

If Jarril openly goes to China for further study, it is difficult to guarantee that he will not be suppressed after he returns. Judging from the current situation, the US military does not intend to withdraw in a short time. As long as the US military does not withdraw for a day, it will be difficult for the Afghans to fully control their own destiny.

The United States finally turned Afghanistan into a wedge for them to penetrate into Central Asia. How could it be possible for a person who is obviously inclined to be in a high position? There is no problem with Jarrell maintaining his current position, but it will be difficult to go further. At this stage, it is estimated that even Matthew De's death security may not be effective.

From a strategic perspective, if the United States has no intention of targeting China at all, no one would believe it. Even if Chen Kangjie has a good relationship with George Bush, George Bush will respect the military's intentions to a certain extent on such issues related to the overall strategic situation.

Therefore, in the long run, it is better not to go to China to improve one's education. If the US military withdraws in the future, you can do whatever you want.

"LONG, are you really willing to donate a library to Kabul University? Is this your promise?" Jarrier looked very surprised.

"It can be regarded as my promise." Chen Kangjie nodded solemnly.

"Then I will report tomorrow like President Matthew De. After years of turmoil, Kabul University was in ruins. Although the new government was established, Kabul University was restored and many schools were restored to build, to be honest, it was impossible to slow down in a short period of time. I actually find it difficult to get out of the way now. The whole country is in ruins, and the reconstruction after the war is still a long way to go." Jarrel was very happy. He got a library when he met Chen Kangjie, which shows that his work was still very effective.

Jarril's happiness lies in Chen Kangjie's emphasis on him. If it were someone else, he might not have received such treatment.

"It's not easy to rebuild a country that has been through many years of war. The biggest difficulty you are facing at the moment should be the shortage of funds. Didn't the United States agree to help you rebuild?" Thinking about it, Chen Kangjie can understand Matthew's difficulties and Jarrier's feelings.

"The United States invests a lot of money in Afghanistan every year, but it is difficult to reach the people's livelihood field. Their military expenditure alone is over half. Then it is to help the new government prepare for the construction of security forces, military uniforms, weapons and ammunition, vehicles and equipment, etc. The money is spent in this regard. The government's normal operation expenses are very difficult, and the government has no money to invest in the construction field. In the years of the hegemony's rule, not only has the overall damage to the education and culture of the entire country, but the national economy has basically been destroyed by it, with almost no industry, and business recovery has just begun. Except for some of the government's office spaces being simply repaired, the rest of the infrastructure remains unchanged." Jarrier said heavy.

"So your Foreign Minister led a delegation to visit China this time, with the purpose of seeking assistance?" Chen Kangjie nodded.

Chen Kangjie is not unfamiliar with Aguo's current situation. Don't forget that he has someone there, and he has contacted Jarrier more than once. In addition to the news media reports, Chen Kangjie has grasped the local situation to a certain extent.

"Yes, the new government hopes that China can help us. Although the new government has been established, in order to obtain the sincere support of the people, it is necessary to help them rebuild their homes. Our schools, roads, houses, electricity, water conservancy and other facilities are seriously damaged. If these situations do not improve, it will be difficult for people to recover. If people's livelihood cannot be improved, the government will lose people's support over time. President Matthewed not only hopes to get assistance and support from China, but also plans to seek help from the European Union and other Asian countries."

"Haha, your President Matthewed has not forgotten me, so he specially put you in to find me." Chen Kangjie said with a chuckling.

Jarrell nodded frankly: "That's true. Before leaving, the president specifically told me that he hoped that I could state our difficulties after seeing you. He really hoped that you could give me some help from our new government in terms of friendship. The less money the government is, the more it depends on the Americans. Although President Matthewd now has a close cooperative relationship with the Americans, in addition to the huge US military stationed in the local area, we also have no money in our hands and cannot move forward. The salary of government departments must be maintained by Americans."

"At the core point, President Matthew De may still hope that the US military can continue to help him maintain the regime and continue to pursue the remnants of the Theologians. Perhaps your security forces now listen to the US military and the government less." Chen Kangjie's wisdom cannot even see this.

"Indeed, military expenditure is in the hands of the Americans. Although we have tens of thousands of security forces in name, as you said, except for the Presidential Guard and some of the security forces stationed in the capital, the rest are indeed more of listening to the dispatch of the US military. In the final analysis, the new government has no money." As the deputy director of the President's Office, Jarrell naturally cannot feel unfamiliar with these inside stories.

Jarrier would not be surprised that Chen Kangjie could see these things. When he reported to Chen Kangjie before, Jarrier also vaguely involved on the phone.

Objectively, the new Afghan government led by Matthewd is still very fragile. If it weren't for the support of the US military, they might not even be able to defeat the extremist-armed theologians. At this stage, the Americans may say that they are willing to withdraw their troops, but Matthewd might not be willing. If they do it well, the US military withdrew, and Matthewd's regime will collapse.

To maintain a regime, both military and financial power are essential. However, now Matthew De lacks these two aspects. He cannot fully control the newly formed security forces and does not have enough money or food in his hands. Otherwise, Matthew De would not have sent the Foreign Minister to beg for alms everywhere.

"How much aid is your Foreign Minister going to seek in China this time?" Chen Kangjie asked.

This question is confidential to others, but it is nothing to Chen Kangjie.

"A billion dollars, hopefully, I can get the support of the Chinese government by billion dollars." Jarrier replied.

"cash?"

"No, China will not give us such a large amount of cash. The minister told me that part of it should be an interest-free loan, and part of it should be related materials, such as grain, office equipment, communication equipment, power generation equipment, etc.."

"If this is the case, then there is a high possibility that he will be satisfied." Chen Kangjie judged.

As a neighboring country, it is impossible for China to completely ignore the interests and existence there. It is the best way to maintain a certain degree of influence there and support and assistance to the new government.

In any case, the new government led by Matthewd is now a legal government that is generally recognized by the international community, representing Afghanistan. The top leaders of China should be happy to deal with such a government.

However, the final result still made Chen Kangjie's judgment somewhat deviated. The central government led by Zhao Zhibang did not agree to the loan requirements of Aguo, and many materials were also deleted. However, China promised to help the Matthew De government build a small hydropower station and some government buildings, and provide some police equipment and police training.

It has to be said that the central government’s considerations are more comprehensive. Whether it is building hydropower stations, building government buildings, or training police, it is easy to be imprinted by China, so that locals can remember the goodness of China.

If loans and materials are provided, it is only useful to the government. The people may not know what China has done for them. You should know that the local propaganda power is very weak. Not to mention the Internet, it is difficult for normal radio and television signals to be maintained except for some big cities.

Always, even if we do good things, we hope that the good things we do will have the due effect, especially for the people. A hydropower station marked by China will stand there for at least fifty years, and the government building built will exist for at least decades. The emotional bonds they form will also exist and last for decades. This is difficult for one-time materials to achieve.
