Chapter 15 Public Enemy 1

In the eyes of a thief If you see a wallet on the ground and don't pick it up, there must be something wrong with your eyes, or he just didn't see it at all. Similarly, in Gabu's eyes, no one in the world is not greedy for money, including the famous chief of the southern tribal area.

Hearing Zhou Jiping's reminder, Gabu showed a cheerful expression and said: "Thank you, Zhou. Thank you for the reminder, and thank you for everything you have done for us. I will support you, and I hope our friendship will last. "

Gabu's understanding of Zhou Jiping's words just now is that Zhou Jiping's "driving away" Xidogu is a gesture of goodwill to him, reminding him that the reason for keeping Muntaya prosperous for a long time is to plan for both parties to stay together for a long time. The meaning of cooperation. In his opinion, although Xidogu came to Zhou Jiping to complain, Zhou Jiping chose his department very "wisely", otherwise he would not have found him specifically to talk to him in private.

With this idea in mind, the experienced Gabe immediately took out his check book and quickly filled out one after thinking about it for a while. Then he tore it off and handed it to Zhou Jiping and said: "Zhou, my Excellency the Prime Minister, I think our cooperation will be very pleasant. Before this, the cooperation between you and General Mountbatten was very successful. We hope that both of us can carry out the cooperation." Deeper cooperation." As he spoke, Colonel Gabu looked at Zhou Jiping eagerly, waiting for Zhou Jiping to take the check.

Zhou Jiping looked at Gabe, who had an eager face, and reached out to take the check. This is a check from a European bank. This bank from Europe was the first foreign bank to open banking business in Montaya, and its reputation and services are first-class. Currently, only a few people in Montaya have the conditions and strength to enjoy the services of this bank.

Zhou Jiping took a closer look and saw that the amount Gabu had just filled in on the check was: five hundred thousand M yuan!

half a million yuan! The same number is the entire donation of a powerful country; the same 500,000 M yuan is the amount of a bribe that a colonel in a weak country can use to show goodwill - this is really a great irony.

Faced with this huge check, Zhou Jiping couldn't help but hesitate. But soon, he smiled faintly and collected the check calmly. Clearly, Gabe is a hopeless person. In his eyes, there is only a naked exchange of interests, and no other moral rules. To be reasonable with such a person is like playing the harp to a cow. Since the other party has already regarded him as an ally, it is better to just let him continue to misunderstand his mistakes, which will also lay a solid foundation for him to create opportunities to deal with him in the future.

Seeing Zhou Jiping put away the check calmly and skillfully, Colonel Gabu became even more convinced that Zhou Jiping and himself were of the same type. In this way, he was completely relieved of his worries.

"Colonel Gabu, what do you think we should do in this disaster relief?" Zhou Jiping asked Gabu very politely.

Zhou Jiping's expression fell into Gabu's eyes, and he could already understand the sincere discussion. When he thought that this legendary tribal chief, the invincible king of war, could not survive even one round of his silver bullet offensive, Gabe's heart was filled with pride. He couldn't help but think to himself, even though I, Colonel Gabe, have never been on the battlefield and fought many battles, I can still defeat opponents that others cannot defeat with my silver bullet tactics.

However, Gabe was only slightly excited, and then quickly calmed down: "Zhou, what you just said makes sense and makes sense. I plan to donate a sum of money to provide disaster relief. What do you think?"

Seeing Gabu being so aggressive, the smile on Zhou Jiping's face became even brighter: "Okay, very good! Mr. Gabu is indeed a smart man. But I don't know how much loss Mr. Gabu can make? If the materials donated by Mr. Gabu Enough that I thought I'd ask Mountbatten TV to do a feature on it."

" One million M yuan, how about it? "Don't worry about bribing Gabu to Zhou Jiping, but if you really want to spend the money on ordinary people, that's not the same thing. When the figure of one million was quoted, he was already a little hurt.

" One million is too little! "Zhou Jiping shook his head regretfully.

"Then, 1.5 million! Gabu added. At this time, he really lost the courage he had when he wrote a check to Zhou Jiping.

"Tsk, tut, tut... Mr. Gabu," Zhou Jiping said in a reproachful tone: " It’s really a bit... Why not add these too! Zhou Jiping pushed out the check for 500,000 M yuan again. "

" No, no, no. Seeing that Zhou Jiping was a little dissatisfied, Gabu panicked. "Two million, how about it?" "

" Haha..." Zhou Jiping smiled calmly and said: "Let's do this, Mr. Gabu, two and a half million. Then from now on you are taking off your military status and starting to set up a physical company, how about it? "

" takes off his military status? "Gabe didn't change his mind for a moment. What is the connection between the loss of gifts and the removal of military status?

"Mr. Gabe, don't you want Montaya TV to spare no effort to promote you? Don’t you want your business to be legal? With your current status, what does it matter whether you have that military uniform or not? "

" Oh, yes, yes, as long as I set up a business now, all my property will be mine. "Gabe became happy and couldn't help but uttered a sick sentence. But he forgot that if he committed an offense before, he would be under the jurisdiction of the military court , but if he committed another offense after that, he would be under the jurisdiction of Montaya's law. As the saying goes, a fish can't see the bait. What else can it be if it's not a person like this?

Large-scale disaster relief activities have begun, and a large number of disaster relief materials have been embezzled by Colonel Gabu and other upper-level officials. These guys who were greedy for fame and fortune took the initiative to spit it out. These self-proclaimed smart guys all hoped to use this to get in touch with Zhou Jiping. Firstly, they could show their goodwill to the Montaya Prime Minister, and secondly, they could gain support from the Montaya people. There is a good reputation there. The third point is that these guys hope to get a share of the minerals in the southern tribal areas through Zhou Jiping's relationship.

Faced with these people with ulterior motives, Zhou Jiping has no intention of discriminating. On the contrary,

continued to meet, praise, and praise a large number of them. Thanks to his efforts, the relief materials self-raised by Montaya played a great role in alleviating the disaster. The situation in Montaya is slowly getting on the right track.

Seeing how well Zhou Jiping and his men cooperated, Mountbatten, who was happy and relaxed, became even more obsessed with his "forever love". Paying attention to this love, Zhou Jiping also took the opportunity to choose the largest diamond from the newly produced diamonds and gave it as a gift to Mountbatten and his black pearl beauty.

The rainy season is gradually coming to an end, and this year's rainy season has been raging for a while. The initial arrogance finally disappeared, and the water in Montaya's land gradually receded, which marked that Montaya's disaster relief activities gradually shifted to restoration and reconstruction.

Under the organization of Montaya's government, Montaya's relief activities gradually shifted. The civilians in Asia began to get busy repairing roads, repairing flood-damaged dams, preparing fields, and sowing crops suitable for the season... When Zhou Jiping was so busy that he could not relax for a moment, even after he had just dealt with the opposition forces, He had no time to return to the grassland where the opposition was being eliminated.

In Zhou Jiping's opinion, although he had not yet had time to get rid of some young people, the situation in Montaya was still generally stable. After this period, when those opponents were paralyzed, he was about to "liquidate" according to his own plan. Unfortunately, Zhou Jiping didn't know that when he secretly made up his mind to liquidate others in the future, there was an invisible big screen. The net has already covered his head.

On the surface, Montaya's situation is relatively stable, but in fact, under the surface of calm, undercurrents are surging.

The common people of Muntaya have become accustomed to living a lazy life for half a year during the rainy season, and this kind of life has formed their lazy living habits. This year, people have to work continuously to earn enough food to feed their families, which they are really not used to.

What makes them even more angry is that they have to do it even if they don't do it, and they will have nothing to eat if they don't do it. Because in the fields around them, except for water, there are crops that were planted according to the government's will a few months ago, but now there is no harvest. The wild vegetables and fruits that once covered the fields have long since given way to these supposedly high-yielding crops.

The crops in the fields are now failing, which means they have to work for the government in exchange for monotonous food. This made the civilians who had always been accustomed to freedom complain quite a bit. This is like an idle person who is used to fishing for a living. If he is suddenly asked to work in a modern factory with high labor pressure, he will definitely feel unable to adapt.

As long as people want to complain, they will always find a reason. Among the people of Muntaya, they are like: The government’s reckless behavior has caused this year’s floods... So many people have built dykes, built roads, and tidied up the land. Just a few rains have caused the floods... It's all over, it's better to preserve some wild fruit trees and plants, so that people can have a change of taste...

These are still complaints circulated among ordinary civilians. At most, they are just complaints by some people to relieve their dissatisfaction. But among these complaints, some such as: the president and the prime minister went abroad to play during the Montaya disaster; when the disaster was serious, the president only talked about love and was preparing to marry a second wife; the government could not tolerate people who were capable and close to the people, so much so that they He pushed him away; many government officials took advantage of the disaster to make money...

Public resentment is like an endless stream of sparks. Without the power to detonate, the spark would likely slowly burn out. But if there is enough force to detonate it, the spark may turn into a prairie fire.

Just when the rainy season was about to end, the person who triggered this resentment actually appeared.

On this day, three cars suddenly drove to the gate of Zhou Jiping's Prime Minister's official residence. The guards from the field company responsible for guarding the official residence immediately came forward to investigate, and it turned out that the person who stepped out of the car was Chinese businessman Jiang Haozhi.

Jiang Haozhi came to take refuge. The direct reason for taking refuge was that his products had quality problems. The people of Montaya who bought fake and inferior products almost beat him to death.

Until this moment, Jiang Haozhi was completely telling the truth. In fact, his cargo did not belong to him alone at first, but after some European countries boycotted Chinese goods, he took it from the Chinese cargo owner who had just arrived in Hong Kong but had not completed customs clearance procedures. , purchased at a very low price. This batch of goods is roughly divided into three parts: some are high-quality and low-priced small commodities, some are counterfeit brand-name goods of decent quality, and the other part of the goods are genuine and shoddy goods. This last group of commodities has the largest quantity, accounting for almost more than half of the total volume of all commodities.

Since the price of buying this batch of goods is extremely low, Jiang Haozhi doesn't have to worry about not making money at all. The reason why he made a so-called investment in Montaya was that he wanted to push this batch of goods to the entire East African market at normal commodity prices. As for the goods he paid to the Muntaya government in exchange for goods, they were of better quality. The quantity of these better-quality goods is not very large, so Jiang Haozhi plans to use these high-quality goods as a stepping stone to open the markets of East African countries. Once the markets of these countries are opened to him, a large amount of counterfeit and inferior goods will be imported into these countries.

And the so-called small commodity warehousing and wholesale base is basically a cover used by Jiang Haozhi to deceive people. He didn't really want to build any base at all, he just wanted to scare people with a vague concept. Once the goods are converted into money, he will run away. During the past rainy season, he took advantage of the inconvenience of construction and did not invest a penny in the construction. It is entirely possible to hire a large number of cargo ships to ship as much cargo as possible in Legalo Port, taking advantage of the rainy season to go to sea.

But for some reason, Jiang Haozhi, who had been guarding Legallo, got carried away

and sold high-quality goods that should be sold locally in Montaya to other countries, but sold some low-quality goods. Sold to nearby Montaya people. It was his misfortune that these products showed their prototypes early in the harsh environment of Montaya during the rainy season - slippers had broken straps, towels had faded, clothes, shoes and hats had rips, and the bottoms had fallen off. The civilians in Montaya, who felt that they had been deceived, realized something was wrong and approached Jiang Haozhi one after another.

Originally, Jiang Haozhi wanted to put the matter to rest, but he came up with a big problem and made it a small matter. Unexpectedly, some local people hired by Jiang Haozhi who knew the inside story came forward and exposed the tricks Jiang Haozhi used in sales. Things got serious at this time, and the excited Montaya people started to make a fuss, demanding the return of goods and compensation for losses. Later, not only the Muntaya people started to make trouble, but some businessmen from neighboring countries also realized that they had been deceived, and they all found Muntaya and asked Jiang Haozhi for an explanation. Immediately afterwards, the ship owner who was owed freight by Jiang Haozhi also came after hearing the news, and the matter escalated rapidly...

At this time, the Muntaya government officials who had been bribed by Jiang Haozhi also changed their previous smiling faces. , came a sudden change of face. They first froze Jiang Haozhi's property and sealed all his goods, and then announced measures to restrict Jiang Haozhi's departure, requiring Jiang Haozhi not to leave Montaya until the matter was fully investigated.

However, there are limits. What is strange is that Montaya's government officials did not protect Jiang Haozhi, but allowed the victims who were deceived by Jiang Haozhi to continue to cause trouble for Jiang Haozhi. For a time, defrauded people, creditors, and gangsters who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity... all focused on Jiang Haozhi. Jiang Haozhi was forced to spend all his money, bribed several desperadoes who had fought in the war, and then fled directly to Zhou Jiping's Prime Minister's residence with their help. He came to Zhou Jiping for no other reason than to save his own life and send him out of Montaya.

After listening to Jiang Haozhi's story, Zhou Jiping remained silent for a long time, his face as gloomy as the sky in the rainy season. Such an international liar appeared in his own country, and Zhou Jiping felt mixed emotions and anger.

No wonder, no wonder he failed to ask Jiang Haozhi to contact the Chinese government. This guy was originally a liar, and he just wanted to take advantage of the fact that Montaya had no diplomatic relations with China. If you just run away after you get it, how can you help establish diplomatic relations between the two countries?

However, when Zhou Jiping calmed down a little and connected the events before and after, he found that the whole thing was unusually weird.

First of all, how could Jiang Haozhi boldly purchase these fake and inferior goods and then sell them to Montaya? How could he know so much about Montaya's national conditions at that time and know that Montaya was in urgent need of an infusion of external funds? How could he know that his deception in Montaya would be successful?

Secondly, the scam run by Jiang Haozhi could be said to be very successful before, but why did it suddenly fall through the cracks recently? And how could anyone jump out to expose him? How could those deceived foreign businessmen and ship owners have such a coincidence? No matter how you look at this, it seems like there is an invisible hand pushing it secretly.

Again, why did Muntaya government officials not report it in time when handling this matter? Even though the matter has become a big deal now, Zhou Jiping still has not received any relevant reports. Also, why did Jiang Haozhi, the living evidence, not be protected when handling this matter? Why could Jiang Haozhi successfully run to the capital to ask for asylum? Could it be that those desperadoes really sent Jiang Haozhi here for a few small coins? But why didn't they get a boat to send Jiang Haozhi abroad? Wouldn't that be easier?

is wrong! Zhou Jiping reacted suddenly. This matter is definitely not just a simple business scam. Otherwise, why would things become so big at this time? Moreover, Jiang Haozhi's decision to defect to him seemed to draw fire to himself.

"Why did you come to Montaya in the first place? How dare you buy in when others are willing to lose money but sell out the goods?" Zhou Jiping raised his eyebrows and stared at Jiang. The Way of Hao. At this time, he no longer had the indifference and ease of Prime Minister Montaya, replaced by the boundless murderous aura of a battle-hardened man. "Say!" Zhou Jiping was asking fiercely with the last word.

Jiang Haozhi was frightened by Zhou Jiping's appearance. He had no idea that the usually harmless-looking Chinese head of state would be so terrifying when he turned violent.

"Yes, it was a businessman from Montaya who told me. He said he didn't have enough money, but he had connections and could smooth all this for me. It was he who told me about the current situation in Montaya, he said Profitable... I paid bribes to the Muntaya government officials according to his wishes. Everything went smoothly and he made a lot of money. But who knows how he got involved later?" As he said that, Jiang Haozhi said: Suddenly he woke up. "Could it be? He is lying to me? But why is he doing this? I can help him make money. That batch of goods can make him at least two million! Even the few cars that were sent to me and the protection My people are all arranged by him. "

I understand, I understand everything. Zhou Jiping let out a sigh of relief and couldn't help but smile secretly in his heart. I didn't expect that the other party had been calculating for so long and so deeply. It seems that as early as the establishment of the Montaya government, the opponent had laid out this secret chess move - no, it was a chess game, a very beautiful and sinister chess game! If his opponent uses this game of chess to defeat him, he will definitely defeat him.

Zhou Jiping thought: If his estimate is good, his opponent's moves should be coming in a steady stream.

Sure enough, at this moment, chaos broke out at the door of the Prime Minister's official residence.

"Hand over the liars and punish the profiteers..."

"Fight against corruption and punish corrupt officials..."

"Rule the country according to the law and reject black politics..."

A stack of slogans came from the window, making everyone in the room Everyone except Zhou Jiping was shocked. When things got to this point, Zhou Jiping calmed down. He knew that at such a critical moment, only calmness could save him, and any panic or anger would give his opponents an opportunity to take advantage of him.

Obviously, the other party did not just use this trick. I am afraid that the civil strife in the Imara grassland and Engro's power struggle are also part of their plan. The other party's big plan is not just for himself, it seems to be for the entire Montaya government. If he is ousted by the people with sufficient reasons or denied by the parliament, then the entire administrative system of Montaya's government will disintegrate, and even Mountbatten's presidency will not last long. The other party has a big conspiracy, how should you deal with it?

"Report!" A soldier ran to the door of Zhou Jiping's office, poked his head into the door and shouted.

"Come in!" Zhou Jiping returned to his usual calm demeanor.

"Your Excellency, Prime Minister, there are many people outside, at least several thousand, and they are petitioning in front of the presidential residence. They request your Excellency, the Prime Minister, to severely punish profiteers and give the people a fair and reliable living environment." The soldier glanced at Jiang, who was frightened. Haozhi reported to Zhou Jiping.

"I know, let's go down." Zhou Jiping replied lightly.

Seeing Zhou Jiping like this, the soldier who reported the situation couldn't help but secretly admired in his heart: He is indeed Muntaya's prime minister, and he can still remain calm in such a tense time. In fact, how did this soldier know that despite Zhou Jiping's calm appearance, in fact Zhou Jiping was completely helpless about the situation in front of him.

Zhou Jiping knew that the situation in front of him was exactly what the scheming person was pursuing. He was even sure that this kind of layout and planning that reached the level of sophistication was definitely the work of Makunda, but he just couldn't figure it out. solution. In the entire Montaya, Makunda is probably the only one who can use this type of trick. If he were to add another helper, it would probably be Country M.

When he thought of Country M, Zhou Jiping couldn't help but think of his recent trip to Country M, and of Berlant's somewhat sinister smile after he and Mountbatten rejected the cooperation request made by Berlant and others. If there was really a shadow of Country M behind this incident, then both he and Mountbatten would have no way to escape.

Although he can now come up with some conventional solutions, such as explaining, persuading, and resolving conflicts. But one could guess intuitively that in the face of the offensive strategy that Makunda had planned for so long, the tricks he could come up with were absolutely no match for the drama Makunda had prepared for him and Mountbatten. If you include Country M, an enemy whose desires have not been satisfied, he and Mountbatten have absolutely no reason to fight back.

"Contact the Presidential Palace, the Parliament, the Sanga City Police Station, and the garrison on the outskirts of the city, inform them of the situation on our side, and then learn from them about the situation on their side. At the same time, let the Government Administration contact major cities across the country to learn about other Relevant situations in urban industries. Remind the police stations in major cities to pay close attention to the progress of the incident and pay attention to possible riots. Remind the Parliament, and notify the People's Army General Staff, the Army and the Reserves through the Parliament to pay attention at any time. The trend of the incident..." Worried, after a brief pause, Zhou Jiping issued some orders through his assistant.

Immediately afterwards, Zhou Jiping sent someone to notify Montaya TV station, asking the TV station to send a camera team to the Prime Minister's Office to report the petition incident head-on. Then, the spokesperson of the Prime Minister's Office was ordered to have a dialogue with the petitioners, saying that the Montaya government and Prime Minister Zhou Jiping were willing to have an open, fair and just dialogue with the petitioners, and hoped that this matter could be resolved reasonably and legally. .

is very fast, and news from all aspects is quickly fed back to

. There were no crowds gathering at the Presidential Palace or the Parliament. Only a few people submitted petitions to the Parliament and the Presidential Palace at the same time as the petition started. The content of the petition is consistent with the slogans shouted by the petitioners, which are things like punishing corrupt officials, cracking down on profiteers, and compensating for losses.

’s blatant actions! It seems that the other party doesn't care at all that someone will see that there is a driving force behind this matter. The other party seems to be asking Zhou Jiping, Montaya's government and parliament in this way arrogantly - can you handle these tactics?

Zhou Jiping had a strange feeling. Makunda seemed to be saying to him arrogantly in this way: Maybe I am not your opponent in fighting and seizing opportunities. But when it comes to using power, you are no match for me.

Moreover, this selective petition will only lead to one result. That is, Parliament, the army, and even Mountbatten would watch from the sidelines as the petition became irrelevant. In the end, he said, "It's none of my business, just hang it up high." I sat back and watched as the petitioners made me anxious, and finally I took the blame and resigned.

As for the crime of resigning, it is nothing more than colluding with profiteers to accept bribes and betraying the interests of the country and the people. In the end, Zhou Jiping will only end up with a ruined reputation. If Mountbatten had seen the opportunity early, he might have woken up from his tenderness and given himself a hand at the critical moment. After all, both parties are in a relationship where both lose and prosper. But if Mountbatten is still immersed in his love, then wait for the Montaya regime to change drastically.

In fact, it doesn’t matter what rights he loses, whether he is Prime Minister Zhou Jiping or not. Anyway, he has long had the idea of ​​​​retreating bravely. But retreating in this way was unacceptable to Zhou Jiping. This is not only related to his reputation, but also means that members of the new government who gain power through this method will not put much effort into Montaya's national economy and people's livelihood except for conspiracy. For Zhou Jiping, who has experienced successive wars and personally created peace in this country, this is absolutely unacceptable.

"How could this happen? How could it be so bad?" Laisi came after getting the news. An anxious look was written on her face, indicating that she was deeply worried. She knows best the work and hard work Zhou Jiping has put in over the past six months.She really didn't understand why Zhou Jiping didn't praise him for doing so many good things, but people put the blame on her lover for such a profiteer.

"Don't worry, I will deal with it well." Zhou Jiping pretended to have the overall situation under control and comforted Laisi.

"How about I accompany you to meet the petition representatives? I have done a lot of basic work during this period. I believe that if I communicate with them, they will be more accepting." Laisi asked uneasily.

Faced with Laisi's concern, Zhou Jiping could not think of a reason to refuse. Although he knew intuitively that Les could not help at all, he could not think of a reason to refuse her kindness. In addition, Zhou Jiping discovered that Lais was very obsessed with Montaya's domestic construction during this period. In her own words: She really wants to build this place where she was born and raised into a beautiful Garden of Eden .

To this end, Les participated in the construction work of many projects in Montaya and devoted great enthusiasm to her career. So much so that her physical condition declined significantly due to continued exertion. But even so, she still refused to stop, and she couldn't even listen to Zhou Jiping's advice.

Now, something like this happened to Montaya again, so Zhou Jiping also wanted to get in touch with Laisi to understand the conspiracy behind the scenes. I want to give a proper blow to Lais's somewhat "restless" heart.

Soon, the spokesperson of the Prime Minister's Office sent back the news: the petition representatives were selected and brought into the Prime Minister's Office. The TV crew is also in place and ready to hold a dialogue meeting at any time. It's just that there are too many people petitioning outside, and the manpower of the security company is a little short, and some are too busy. Is

too busy? Hearing these words, Zhou Jiping's heart suddenly trembled. Half of his guard company is currently in Soyo, having been attracted by the civil unrest in Soyo not long ago. Could it be that this is also a move that has been laid out by the opponent a long time ago? So, the other party left early and expected that he would build a plank road to cross Chencang secretly? Could this kind of tactical plan really be the work of Makunda? Could it be that people from China really have something to do with this matter?

As for the other party's layout, I am afraid that there is only one purpose for attracting me to send out a field company. I want to take advantage of the lack of security forces around me and use force to eliminate myself.

Zhou Jiping has been fighting for survival since he came to the grassland. After finally waiting for Muntaya to establish the country, the government with separation of powers was also established. The army cannot be mobilized at will, and the possibility of a military coup is very low... Who would have thought that just when he thought he was safe enough, he would actually mobilize half of the field company guarding his safety. This time, my personal safety became a big problem again. But now, it is no longer possible for the matter to be resolved quickly.

told Bafada to set up a cordon outside the Prime Minister's Office and just do it as they did in previous exercises. In addition, manned cordons will be arranged to line the walls of the Prime Minister's Office, especially at night. Check the surrounding commanding heights and eliminate some places where snipers may be hiding... Zhou Jiping had to take it seriously when it came to his own life and safety.

The security company commander Bafada went to arrange the security of the Prime Minister's Office. Zhou Jiping, along with Laisi and a group of officials from the Prime Minister's Office, came to the conference room to meet with the petitioners and have a dialogue about Jiang Haozhi's counterfeit products.

To Zhou Jiping's surprise, the entire conversation went exceptionally smoothly, and the petition representatives did not make any embarrassing demands. When they saw with their own eyes the Prime Minister and the beautiful and kind-hearted Prime Minister's wife whom they had admired for a long time, most of them were almost beyond excited. Especially when Zhou Jiping promised that Jiang Haozhi would compensate the victims of civilian losses, pay the shipowners who were owed transportation fees in full, and promised to crack down on corrupt officials who were colluding with Jiang Haozhi. The petition representatives announced the perfect end of the dialogue with almost excited cheers.

Looking at these petition representatives with rough skin and simple eyes, Zhou Jiping couldn't help but secretly wonder: Could his opponent really let him go so easily? Of course

will not! In just two days, the situation took a turn for the worse again.When the asset inventory team sent by the Prime Minister's Office and the Parliament arrived at the Port of Legallo to conduct a material inventory of the so-called small commodity market set up by Jiang Haozhi at the port. People were surprised to find that all the goods Jiang Haozhi had stored at the port had been lost, and the remaining goods could not compensate the victims for their losses, let alone the large amount of transportation money Jiang Haozhi still owed. When the news of

came, everyone including Zhou Jiping and Jiang Haozhi were shocked. You know, the total quantity of the goods Jiang Haozhi threw at the port was still very large, even if some of them were fake goods. But just selling those normal goods and counterfeit goods is enough to repay all the losses. But within a day when Jiang Haozhi fled to Zhou Jiping and petitioners surrounded the Prime Minister's Office, a large amount of goods disappeared. How could this not be shocking?

But just when Zhou Jiping convened relevant departments here at the Prime Minister's Office and asked the asset inventory team about the whole situation, bad news came again - he had just learned about the whole incident through a TV program, and his mood gradually stabilized. People somehow heard the final inventory results. When the victims heard the news, their feeling of being deceived suddenly pushed their anger even higher, and petitioners once again surrounded the Prime Minister's Office.
