Columbia Is About to Stop Paying Its Membership Fees Again

The matter in Iberia was quickly brought to a close.

After Huang Cao killed all the bandit leaders, he spread the news that Iberia belonged to Utopia.

For a time, almost all the countries of Terra, except Ursus, were shocked.

Yan Country, in particular, hastily cut the budget for the Si Sui Tai in half.

Yanwu's father: My goodness! This behemoth is even more terrifying than Sui! What if Shu whispers something in that guy's ear?

Gaul was swallowed up, as was the crippled Iberia. Basically, all the major powers with any standing were attacked by Utopia, and some of them couldn't withstand it and perished completely.

Could I be next?

There are now only three major powers on the Terra.

Utopia, Ursus, Yan Country, Kazimierz, and Leithanian, and perhaps we could add the up-and-coming Columbia.

However, the great powers located in the core of Terra have been almost completely swallowed up by Utopia and have never regained their former glory.

Iberia becoming part of the Eight Utopias is a great testament worthy of being recorded in history. 2=—

This heralds the birth of a superpower capable of dominating all nations, far more powerful than Gaul, with influence even surpassing that of Victoria.

However, although Utopia is very powerful, it is not enough to make the sworn enemies Yan Country and Ursus unite.

After all, Utopia did not harm the interests of Yan Country.

After resolving the issue in Iberia, Huang Cao delivered the letter proposing the establishment of the Terra United Nations to the nations of Terra.

Whether you want to join or not, at least give Utopia some face; replying would be fine too.

Whether you can seize political wealth depends on your choices.

Six months after the letter was sent, almost all the major powers on Terra's land responded.

However, the main subjects of the letters were Yan Country and Ursus. Although Victoria was not nominally part of Utopia, it had long since become Master Huang's toy.

In the year 1050 of the Terra Calendar, five years after Utopia had completely assimilated Iberia, the first Terra Union Conference was held.

The meeting was held in the capital of Iberia.

Here, the rulers of Terra witnessed the nation's rebirth from the ashes and were deeply impressed by Utopia's powerful military and economic strength.

World leaders gathered to discuss the future of the land at the call of Secretary General Theresia.

"I never expected that Mr. Huang would marry such a Sarkaz as his wife."

The elderly Laterano Church looked at the Demon King before him, his mind filled with thoughts. When did the devil dare to preside over a peace conference?

"Your Holiness the Pope of Lateran, please watch your words and actions, or I may take it as a provocation against Utopia."

Huang Cao coughed heavily a few times, reminding him politely, but those around him could hear a hint of anger in his voice.

The Lateran pope was instantly jolted awake. He turned to apologize to Huang Cao and then said nothing more.

Even if they were to apologize, they would never apologize to the demons.

Theresia, dressed in a long white dress, wanted to say that Kazdel hadn't caused trouble on this land for a long time, although Upper Sarkaz mercenaries were still active all over the world.

It seems that Sarkaz's image will not change for a long time.

Despite her sadness, Theresia remained true to her role as Secretary-General and continued to guide the meeting step by step according to the established rules.

There were not many people attending the meeting, and only a handful of the country's top leaders were actually present in person.

The following are Xiao Te's comments on these people.

Utopia's leader: My husband is great! No need for further explanation!

Kazdel's representative Lamian: a good comrade-in-arms and best friend on the battlefield, no further explanation needed.

Queen Victoria, the current Queen: This is a mascot; in meetings, we still have to follow the Master Huang's lead.

Columbia diplomatic representative: According to Aca, this is more of a mascot, and he spent the whole time reading the little booklet that the president gave him.

The current Pope of Lateran: a somewhat unsympathetic old man with overly conservative views, but his long-standing feud with Kazdel makes it understandable why he treats me badly.

The representative sent by the Yan Country is the prince of the current True Dragon, and the younger brother of the current crown prince.

Prince of Yan Country: He looks like a smart and quiet child, probably just recently turned 18, and he is holding a book in his hands.

Ursus representative Koschei: I don't have a good impression of her. She used to be a total bad woman who seduced her own man multiple times, but now she's using a male body, so let's let her off the hook for now.

Cyril, the Knight of the Kazimierz Campaign Knight: A powerful warrior, but seemingly uninterested in politics, with a tense and nervous expression, probably just there for show.

The Bolívar officer: He had a fierce look in his eyes, his mood was not right, and he kept staring at the Columbia representative, his expression as if he wanted to kill him.

Other countries did not send representatives to the meeting because they were not invited at all.

These are Xiao Te's initial impressions of the leaders in some countries, and the vast majority of them are quite normal.

"The topics of discussion at this meeting were humanitarian aid between Bolívar and Columbia, as well as a preliminary meeting to mediate the war between the two sides."

The utopia represented by Huang Cao is naturally the main focus of this meeting, enjoying the right to initiate and conclude the meeting, as well as the right to formulate the main content of the meeting.

Ten years have passed, but Huang Cao has never forgotten his original intention in establishing Terra United Nations.

The dispute between Columbia and the Bolívar was the debut battle for Utopia.

However, it was the Columbia representative who wanted to speak first, but he was interrupted by Theresia before he could say anything.

Theresia: "Please, Columbia representative, follow the meeting order. It is now the time for the Utopia's Lord to speak. Please wait patiently, other members."

The Columbia representative, who was forcibly held down, kept cursing in his mind. "These two scoundrels are quite good at acting."

Because Utopia's influence expanded too quickly, the relationship between Huang Cao and Theresia, Lamian, and others had long been exposed.

So Huang Cao's reputation as the Sarkaz Harem King spread, but most people admired him.

All three wives are Sarkaz. What kind of macho man would dare to marry like that?

Huang Cao nodded slightly. "Thank you for Secretary General Theresia's reminder. First of all, I would like to strongly condemn Columbia's military actions. Their military behavior seriously violates humanitarian principles, especially Columbia's wanton destruction of Bolívar's villages with its strong military force, causing countless civilians to starve and resulting in a large number of deaths."

Huang Cao recounted one by one the bad things Columbia had done, but the Colombian representative in Sanya appeared indifferent and remained arrogant.

Columbia representative. "Yes, Columbia's involvement in Bolívar reached its peak starting in 1047 of the Terra Calendar. So what? This is a war between our two countries. What does it have to do with Utopia?"

Theresia: "This is not the time for the Columbia representative to speak..."

The Columbia representative shouted, "Shut up, you devil!"

Theresia was silent for a moment, then took a deep breath and continued her warning:

"... I remind you again that this is not the time for the Columbia representative to speak. Please abide by the charter of the Terra United Nations here, otherwise I have the right to unilaterally disqualify Columbia from participating in future meetings."

The Columbia representative remained silent, because he also knew that the Terra United Nations would likely be the main battleground for political maneuvering in the future.

But Columbia's interests cannot be violated; this is the absolute bottom line the president has told himself.

You can't expect me to come and hit you just because I insulted you.

Sitting on the chairman's seat, Huang Cao took a deep breath, thinking to himself that these scoundrels were indeed not so easy to talk to.

"Ah Cao, I'm fine, don't be angry, I was prepared for this."

Theresia quickly comforted her husband with her Black Crown, then continued to push forward the meeting as if she were unaffected.

His normal demeanor even drew the attention of the Lateran pope.

Forgiveness is a virtue, and at least this devil already has it.

"Since your country is already seated here, you must have already agreed to the charter I have drawn up. Since the Secretary-General has no objections, I will temporarily forgive your rudeness."

Huang Cao naturally had to stand up for his wife, otherwise the meeting wouldn't be able to continue.

Theresia used a PowerPoint presentation to display a quote from the UN Charter on the screen. "According to the Charter, I am holding a vote. Do you wish to silence the Columbia representative for one hour? Representatives who agree, please press the green button on the table. Representatives who disagree, please press the red button."

With a series of beeps, all the representatives present, except for the Columbia representative, unanimously approved the resolution.

At the same time, I thought to myself that Columbia was indeed a country with no connections, and its diplomatic representatives had absolutely no manners.

The Lateran and Sarkaz have been fighting for so many years without saying a word, but I never expected the Columbia to have such foul mouths, even more so than the Pope.

The Columbia representative was then escorted away by a group of guards.

The Bolívar representative glanced at Theresia with gratitude, understanding that the Secretary-General was giving him a way out.

According to the speaking order at this meeting, it would be my turn to speak next, and Columbia would definitely try to interfere and embarrass me.

Now that the person has been carried out, Bolívar's representative is completely relieved of his burden.

The Bolívar representative took a deep breath and said with genuine emotion:

"Ladies and gentlemen, I hereby condemn the crimes against humanity committed by the State of Columbia and plead for humanitarian assistance from the Terra United Nations."

After a long, tearful accusation, the countries present offered almost no response, not even a word of comfort.

But the Bolívar representative was not particularly surprised, because at least this place provided him with a platform to voice his opinions, which was enough for his country.

After all, who would give you resources for free to fight against the powerful Columbia?

Chapter 361 Columbia is going to waive membership fees again.

After the representatives from each country had finished speaking according to their respective procedures, Huang Cao, as the organizer of this meeting, presented a proposal that had been prepared in advance.

By this time, the Columbia representative's ban had expired, and he quickly returned to the meeting.

Although he was silenced, the words spoken by the Bolívar representative were not prevented from reaching his ears, because there was a screen outside where he could watch the live broadcast.

Theresia: "The following is a time for open discussion. Please choose your words carefully to avoid hurting the harmony."

When it came time for open discussion, the Columbia representative preemptively retorted, "I refuse to provide humanitarian aid to Bolívar. Are you kidding me? How could our country possibly help an enemy?"

"This brings us to another matter at this meeting, namely, the payment of membership fees by each member state."

Koschei was also shocked by Master Huang's bold idea.

Wow, it turns out he wasn't joking after all; this man actually wants to establish an effective international organization.

I need to sit up and see!

"How much do I have to pay, and what benefits will I get after paying?" the Columbia representative scoffed.

Theresia took out several booklets from behind and distributed them to everyone present in the order of their speeches.

Everyone present was surprised to find that the booklet had an expiration date, and after that, they would have to use a new booklet for the next meeting.

In addition to listing the annual membership fees payable by member countries, the booklet also specifies the channels for using these fees, as well as the form and standards for payment.

The Columbia representative said, "Why do we Columbia have to pay so much in membership fees? Why does Kazdel pay so little?"

Lamian: "Because our country is very poor, with an income far below the international average, and in terms of total income, it is not as high as Columbia, so we pay less membership fees."

"Utopia has more diplomatic relations with us, almost half of them, and I haven't said anything about it."

The prince of Yan Country fell into deep thought as he looked at the ten thousand gold coins that his country had to pay every year.

"Can we settle this in Yan Country's currency?" the Yan Country prince asked.

Huang Cao shook his head. "I'm very sorry, but since there is no universally accepted paper currency in the world at present, we have to use gold coins for settlement for the time being. This is to prevent some countries from trying to get something for nothing."

Koschei: "Master Huang, could you lower the price a bit? Five thousand gold coins a year is a bit too much. We Ursus are poor too."

Black Snake said he really couldn't produce a single gold coin; the entire country had long been emptied out.

"The annual fees are already listed in the booklet, and I suggest that they should still be paid; otherwise, the countries behind you may not be qualified to participate in subsequent UN decision-making."

"I guarantee that the use of this money will be fair and transparent, and there will be absolutely no corruption or illegal activities involved. Of course, this fee will be paid every year and will gradually increase with economic development."

"This year's donation will be mainly used for the Bolívar's resistance against aggression, to promote humanitarianism, and to purchase food and weapons to support local armed groups in their fight against Columbia's illegal aggression."

The Columbia representative said, "So the 10,000 gold coins our country donated will later turn into crossbow bolts stuck in our bodies? Is this a joke?"

"Believe it or not, I dare not pay at all? Or I can simply default on the payment. It doesn't seem to say in the regulations that you can't default."

"Your Excellency, the Columbia representative, it is regrettable that this is the significance of the establishment of the Terra United Nations." Huang Cao's tone was calm and even, as if stating a fact.

"If your words represent Columbia, then you need not continue attending the next meeting. You may leave now and return to your home country to enjoy the pleasures of power."

Huang Cao had no intention of making himself the sucker.

This organization needs the participation of the Terra countries; it cannot function without any of the major powers, unless Columbia does not want such a substantial political fortune.

As expected, all the countries present, except Columbia, immediately signed their names on the payment agreement as soon as it was issued.

Even the black snake, who was penniless, had to get serious at this moment.

Although the power of Terra United Nations is limited by major powers, its influence will likely become mainstream internationally in the future, barring unforeseen circumstances.
