Chapter 2052 - 1327: Currency Swap Agreement (Part 2)
"Mr. Jiang, please save our Korean people."
Representative Li also bowed his head.
Party struggles are not unique to one country.
The power struggle in Korea has always been the most intense.
The Blue House curse has even become a well-known saying worldwide.
History has shown that being the Korean Great Commander is indeed a high-risk profession; those who have held this position rarely have a good ending, either dying tragically or being sent to prison after stepping down.
Of course.
No matter how great the risk, the supreme power still drives people forward.
"Prosecutor Che has already discussed it with me."
Jiang Chen spoke unhurriedly, "Miss Fujiwara will cooperate with you."
The two opposition party representatives looked delighted.
After Jiang Chen spoke, Fujiwara Riki finally joined the conversation, "Upon returning to your country, you can have your party strongly condemn Yingdong Electric Power’s act of discharging nuclear-contaminated water into the sea, and the louder the better."
All these people are shrewd and naturally understand the implication of these words.
As a neighbor, if Japan discharges nuclear waste into the sea, one wave would likely hit Korea. So when the news leaked initially, Korea was instantly in an uproar, with terrified and panicked citizens taking to the streets to protest.
Unfortunately, the current Great Commander turned a blind eye, not content to serve as America’s puppet, unexpectedly began to serve as Japan’s too. Initially, they were all baying dogs, but he voluntarily lowered his status to preserve his ruling guidelines and avoid damaging friendly relations with Japan, choosing to play deaf and dumb, ignoring the will of the people, and saying nothing about Japan’s nuclear wastewater discharge.
However, if the opposition party stands up, expressing the people’s voices and receives a response from Japan, "forcing" Yingdong Electric Power to start addressing the nuclear wastewater issue, what a significant achievement and honor would that be?
The two seemingly concerned opposition-party representatives beamed instantly, turning to look at Fujiwara Riki.
The studious Representative Wen, somewhat hesitant, decided to ask, "Dare I ask Miss Fujiwara, what is the real situation regarding the nuclear leak incident at Yingdong Electric Power so far?"
Fujiwara Riki chuckled.
"To make up for the mistakes made, we paid a heavy price, with thousands of people unfortunately sacrificing their lives. To minimize the impact on marine ecology, we have invested hundreds of billions of US dollars so far."
The two Korean representatives looked at each other.
They knew more than the average person, but their information was still limited.
At least the data revealing thousands of sacrifices would certainly not be disclosed publicly.
"All thanks to Mr. Jiang’s tremendous support."
Fujiwara Riki shifted the topic, "Without Mr. Jiang’s initial efforts, not only our two countries but the entire world would be implicated."
"Mr. Jiang is noble."
The two representatives immediately looked at Jiang Chen and spoke sincerely.
For more than half an hour.
The two Korean representatives pushed the door open and left.
Entering with heavy hearts and leaving satisfied.
Fujiwara Riki escorted them part of the way, before handing them over to the servants and turned back.
"Squeak."
The paper door was closed again.
"Yi Ronghuan’s days should be numbered."
To ordinary people, the country’s head of state is too distant to reach, but for someone like Fujiwara Riki, it’s just trifling.
An ancient saying goes, "The ironclad clan, the flowing dynasty."
In the present world, high-ranking officials are nothing but agents of vested interests.
The underlying capital is the real puppeteer.
"Congratulations to Jiang Sang."
"Congratulate me on what."
Jiang Chen remained indifferent.
Fujiwara Riki smiled charmingly, "Congratulations Jiang Sang...for rescuing the Korean people from dire straits and achieving another great merit for yourself."
Jiang Chen was unmoved and picked up the teapot, pouring himself another cup of tea.
Who said Boss Jiang isn’t handsome?
Isn’t this charisma to the fullest?
What is called power overturning clouds and rain.
Authority is forever a man’s best attire.
"Jiang Sang, you’ve resolved the troubles of the Korean people, so now shouldn’t you also resolve Li Ji’s problem?"
"Has Prince Wataru Tetsuya left?"
Jiang Chen held up the teacup, sipping tea while asking.
"Jiang Sang, what are you thinking? His leaving or staying doesn’t matter; what Li Ji means is how to deal with the interference of the US military stationed in Japan."
"What are your thoughts?"
"Li Ji has no thoughts."
Fujiwara Riki replied without hesitation, like a little woman unwilling to think further beside her man.
"With Jiang Sang around, do we really need Li Ji to meddle?"
"Maybe you’re scaring yourself."
Boss Jiang remained optimistic.
"These soldiers are like barnacles; once they appear, they’re definitely looking for a host to latch onto."
Truly, it was unrestrained speech.
Not afraid of getting shot at.
But that’s true as well.
It’s a civilized society now.
No matter how arrogant the soldiers are, they can’t solve problems with violence.
Jiang Chen rubbed the cup of tea that was suspended in mid-air and pondered for a moment.
"If the situation you’re talking about really happens, as a bilateral partner, we definitely won’t sit idly by."
"Does this ’we’ include me?"
Fujiwara Reiki interjected, her eyes sparkling. Seeing Jiang Chen look over, she gave a sweet smile, "Please continue, Jiang Sang."
"If the situation requires, the bilateral cooperation can be further upgraded."
"For example?"
Fujiwara Reiki was intrigued, extremely interested.
"For example, establishing an economic self-trade zone."
Fujiwara Reiki fell silent, then said, "Jiang Sang, did you already have this planned?"
Jiang Chen drank all the tea in his cup and put it down.
"Weren’t you the one who asked me?"
Fujiwara Reiki looked at him silently.
"The recovery speed of the Japanese economy is relatively slow. I have a friend who runs a noodle shop in Tokyo, but business has been so bad recently that he plans to return home to develop. Establishing an economic self-trade zone should be a way to stimulate the economy."
"But by doing this, the Westerners definitely won’t agree. The government certainly won’t risk offending Westerners completely. Jiang Sang, even if this is a solution, the possibility of implementation is very small."
"If there’s time, everything will work out. I never said there was a need for urgency."
Fujiwara Reiki shook her head.
"Li Ji thinks the hope is slim."
"You should have heard the national anthem of Shen Zhou; if you don’t want to be a slave, you first have to want to stand up."
"Jiang Sang, doing so will only escalate the intensity of the war."
If last year was a war between Japan and Shen Zhou Capital, then according to Jiang Chen’s assumed scenario, Japan as the host will become a pawn, and the fight will be between the giant beasts of the East and West.
The clash of titans, leaving the innocent to suffer.
In this situation, it’s not simply possible to stay out of it. When two robbers rush in and start fighting in your own home, as the homeowner, can you stand idly by?
In that case, the house would certainly be smashed to pieces.
Waiting for the police takes too long, and besides, there’s no damn police, so the only way is to help one robber drive the other out first.
So at times like these.
The choice becomes crucial.
"War is one way to solve problems, and if you want to solve problems, you can’t fear war."
You have to admit, what Boss Jiang said was incredibly bold, but President Fujiwara isn’t a naive little girl, "Jiang Sang, you have to give me some leverage for negotiations with the government, don’t you?"
Asking for benevolence gets benevolence.
Jiang Chen calmly said, "Currency exchange agreement."
Jiang Chen was unhurried.
"Once someone’s interests are harmed, open the currency exchange channel immediately."
Fujiwara Reiki’s pupils shrank.
She certainly understood the weight of those words.
How Japan was reaped last year, partly due to currency fluctuations.
And with Shen Zhou’s current scale and strength there, once Shen Zhou acts as a backing, there is no longer any fear of being shorted, and it will be harder for the yen to crash again.
"Jiang Sang, have you discussed this with the Shen Zhou government?"
Jiang Chen nodded without a change in expression, "Of course. Do you really think I’m capable of covering for all of Japan myself?"
In fact, Fujiwara Reiki wasn’t entirely clear about the true capabilities of the first man in her life.
Meanwhile.
She was also unsure about the extent of the other party’s courage.
"Li Ji has a request."
"What is it?"
"Li Ji wants to join the Tianci Society."
Jiang Chen remained silent.
