I agree. The likelihood of the Chinese being interested in our dredges and agricultural equipment is slim.
What would be of interest are 20-50 year concessions for prime mining areas (including coastal waterfront regions).
What the Chinese (or anybody else) can't buy is, the honesty, fair dealing, and integrity, that made those concessions possible.
Sadly, everybody isn't going to be able to understand or appreciate intangible things like that.
