Volume 8 Dragon Nirvana Chapter 536: Wind and Cloud Meeting (4)
Chapter 536: The Storm and Cloud Meeting (Fourth
The cocktail party was filled with worries and gentlemen. After all, there would be some very private circles. The cocktail party held at the Fuzhutang headquarters this time was no exception. However, in the entire cocktail party venue, the most core circle, the circle where everyone's eyes were looking at intentionally or unintentionally, was only a few people. Long Liexue was undoubtedly the core of the circle. In such an occasion, whether a person is the core of a circle or not, only needs to see the body facing each other in the circle when they speak.
Who knew that in this small circle where Long Liexue was in, the patriarchs of the five major Chinese families in the Federation and the bosses of the three major Chinese communities surrounded Long Liexue like stars arching the moon, whispering something. There were a few well-dressed but cold-eyed men standing around everyone. These were the security guards of Fuzhutang and several members of the official guards who were close to Long Liexue. The people on both sides were easy to identify. The security guards of the official guards at the cocktail venue were wearing uniform black suits, and a small one was stuffed in one ear.
The people in Fuzhutang are also wearing dresses, but inadvertently they can see hideous tattoos at the collar and cuffs of the shirt. When others see this momentum, ordinary people dare not go to Long Liexue and others at will. In fact, this is the case. It seems that they follow some default social principles. Those who are truly qualified to come to this circle are all Chinese elites who are second only to the five wealthy families and the boss of Fuzhutang, and several wealthy families, looking for opportunities to go to each other.
Long Liexue introduced a young generation of people in his family. I don’t know if it was deliberately, but Long Liexue noticed that the proportion of female guests at the cocktail party today seemed to be a little more. Several wealthy bigwigs seemed to have intentionally or unintentionally introduced their female juniors to Long Liexue to meet. Seeing Long Liexue’s slightly confused gaze, Jiang Xiaozhong whispered a few words next to Long Liexue. It turned out that he didn’t know that the cocktail party had the purpose of “chooseing a concubine” for him. Long Liexue couldn’t help but laugh.
When a man in his fifties walked over with wine, Du Hui, president of the Federal Chinese Business Association, quickly introduced to Long Liexu, "This is Oubanghua, the vice president of our association, and a famous federal industrialist..."
Du Hui did not notice that Oubanghua's steps were a little stiff, and his expression was a little nervous, and even his hands holding the wine glass seemed to tremble slightly.
Oubanghua? Ji Sushanda's uncle? When Long Liexue's eyes fell on the man in front of him who seemed to be sweating with a hint of fun, before Oubanghua spoke, Long Liexue laughed, "I have to thank President Ou for looking down on me. It's just a simple task. I have already helped her solve the troubles on her niece before coming here. I don't have to be so troubles next time."
Long Liexue's round face, which was smiling with a light and light cloud, suddenly looked like fat meat being roasted on the red charcoal fire. In an instant, sweat came out of her face. Her hands holding the wine glass were trembling, almost splashing the wine in the wine glass.
The people around all saw something wrong with Oubanghua and looked at each other. Except for Jiang Xiaozhong and Mr. Hu and Yu Xiaozong, the three of them always whispered like they were old gods, the others were a little confused, so they just watched Oubanghua carefully wipe the sweat on his face with a scarf.
No one knew that after receiving the call from her niece Ji Sushanda, his heart suddenly rose to his throat. Oubanghua really didn't expect that the solution of the King of Floral Cute would be so bloody and ruthless. When he thought of the corpses "execution" in the restaurant, including Yanjing Police Chief Bron, who had not seen each other in person, Oubanghua still felt a domineering aura that suffocated him to the face like a mountain pressing down on Taishan. Because it was a bit unreasonable to ask his niece to find Lin Yan, Oubanghua suddenly became frightened and nervous. Will that man already know the role he played here? If he knew, would that man send his anger on him? With such thoughts and a little bit of unexplained luck and hope, Oubanghua walked over, but he didn't expect that Long Liexu's first words made him fall into an ice cave.
But after all, I am not an ordinary person, and I have experienced many storms. Looking at the eyes around me with various questions and explorations falling on my face, Ou Banghua calmed down and smiled bitterly, "This is wrong with me. At that time, my niece found me. I really had no choice but to make this decision. I wanted to use the commander's prestige and relationship in the Federation to help her overcome this obstacle in her family. The Ou family also recorded this great kindness of Commander Lin. Even if this glass of wine is apologized to Commander Lin..." Ou Banghua raised his glass, raised his head, and drank the whole glass of wine in one go.
Although this kind of small thing has been "used" by someone, how could Long Liexue really care about it? It's just that seeing this "initiator" appear and hit it a little, the affairs of Ji Sushanda's family are indeed sympathetic. "If you have any difficulties in the future, don't let someone stop the car on the road. The car can't be stopped every time."
Oubanghua finally breathed a sigh of relief, but the bosses around him heard some of the context from the words of the two. The affairs of Ji Sushanda's family caused a lot of controversy in Yanjing. Oubanghua's relationship with his sister's family was also clear. I think it was Oubanghua who used some means to help King Guangming help him settle the affairs of his niece's family. How did this matter be so harsh?
Just as everyone was speculating in their hearts, Jiang Xiaozhong glanced at Long Liexue. Long Liexue nodded slightly, and Jiang Xiaozhong spoke indifferently, "Before Commander Lin came to Fuzhutang, he had a meal in a restaurant. He was attacked during the meal. The 17 attackers, including Yanjing Police Chief Bron and Du Samindeng, general manager of the Federal Yanjing Property Investment Company with a gangster background, were all shot dead by the security personnel around Commander Lin on the spot."
After Jiang Xiaozhong said that, several bigwigs in the circle took a breath of air. Bronn and Dusamminden were the mastermind behind the dispute over the Boston Building project. This is something that everyone at their level knows. Why did Oubanghua's niece travel to all the judicial departments and parliamentary organs of the federal government but no one dared to say a word to the Boston Building project? The reason is very simple, because Bronn is a deputy ministerial official of the federal power and a cadre of the Zongbaqingjia faction. There is news that after Zongbaqingjia retreated, he intended to let Bronn go two more steps and go directly to the Federal Peace and Development Commission to become a member of the Standing Committee.
In charge of the judicial work of the federal government. Dusammindeng, general manager of the Federal Yanjing Property Investment Company, is a representative figure of the federal social gangster. At first, he was just a pimp gangster in Yanjing. Later, he joined the line of a certain federal princeling and was able to get into the powerful circle of the federal government. He gradually formed a collusion with many federal officials and forces of local underworld organizations. He also had such a background. No matter how they turned black and white, who would dare to speak for a woman? Not to mention a woman, Fuzhutang and the five major Chinese tycoons in the Federation
In the door, people who are always bruised and clumsy, and when they encounter these corrupt officials and bullies with different backgrounds, no one has suffered more or less losses. But after all, the Federation is not the hometown. If you want to survive in the Federation, as long as you can live in the scene and have a way to go, everyone will be with the light and lose money and eliminate disasters. For various reasons, no one has the courage to fight with these people to the end. And it is such a group of people, 17, died in the restaurant of Oubanghua's niece's house. The reason is that they "attacked" Lin Yan, and the people who were "attacked" by them at this moment did not even have a drop of blood on their leather shoes, clean and shiny, and their clothes and pens.
He came to the cocktail party and chatted and laughed, and the attacker was now turning into a pile of corpses that made the people surrounding them frustrated. No matter how many things were entangled in it, one thing everyone is sure of is that since King Linyan of Guang dared to erase those two people like dregs, he was definitely not willful. Especially in places like Yanjing, if this man dared to do this, it means that this man was definitely not afraid of having a fight with the backers behind the two people, or Fei Lengcui was never afraid of head-on military conflicts and long-term confrontation with the Federation, even if this person is still on "other people's territory" now...
Before we knew it, did Fei Lengcui already have such confidence and confidence? Thinking of this, the big guys, including the parents of the five major Chinese families in the Federation, felt refreshed and looked at each other, and they all saw inexplicable excitement in each other's eyes. There is only one word to describe this feeling - especially when the Botton incident broke out, the surface scenery of the Federation was already shaking behind the ground, everyone suddenly felt that their backs were hard. It suddenly seemed to have some invisible support.
"Okay" Unexpectedly, the best-cultivated Obida called out the word "good". Obida's gray eyebrows trembled, and his hands happily hit each other, making a crisp sound, which attracted people from afar to look here. "From this month, 60% of the Ou family's goods have been in and out of Feilengcui..." Because of the special political status and geographical environment of the country in Feilengcui, on the export of jade gemstones and finished products, which are an important source of federal wealth, after negotiation, there is a related detailed tariff management agreement between Feilengcui and the federal government. According to this agreement, whenever jade gemstones or finished products produced in the federal controlled area are exported abroad through Feilengcui Customs, both parties shall implement a unified federal tax rate. The federal government can share two-thirds of the tax amount. At Feilengcui's customs, there are tariff inspectors dispatched by the federal government to ensure the implementation of the agreement.
(Of course, will these federally-stationed tariff inspectors be corroded by Fei Lengcui's flower world be another problem), and Fei Lengcui naturally has no right to interfere with the jade gems exported through other federal customs. The Ou family is engaged in a jewelry business, and the amount of goods imported and exported each year is very large. The tax on these goods every year is a large amount. Before this, in order to balance all factors, the Ou family imported and exported goods through Fei Lengcui Customs, especially high-end jade and gems exported to the country, accounted for about one-fifth of its total shipment to foreign countries, and the others are in and out of other customs ports in the federal. Now Ou Bida's statement, with the scale of Ou's jewelry, this inclination is undoubtedly equivalent to the customs tariffs given to Fei Lengcui hundreds of millions of dollars each year. It is a wealthy family, and this move is indeed extraordinary.
Seeing the Ou family's statement, the other big guys had some thoughts in their hearts, but after all, they were not ordinary people. They knew that there was no need to be too obsessed at this time. The Ou family's first statement was that they had true feelings and the old man Ou Bida's scheming. The cocktail party held in Fuzhutang was just a beginning for the Federal Chinese upper-level elite group to build trust, seek common ground and survive, and form a joint force in the Federation. For more, we should wait until after the cocktail party, when we sit together to have a tea.
Just at this moment, a pleasant piano sound in the hall sounded, and everyone looked in the direction that they were making noise. At some point, a girl was sitting on a piano bench in front of a white piano in the hall, with her beautiful fingers stroking the keys, and the melodious music flowed out of the piano. Seeing Long Liexue looking over, the girl playing the piano was swept over and gave a shy and sweet smile that made people feel moved. Taking advantage of this opportunity, everyone changed the topic just now and naturally talked about Fei Lengcui's current situation. What concerned people in this circle the most was Fei Lengcui's military expansion plan, which had heard a little bit of the wind. When Long Liexue briefly introduced Fei Lengcui's military expansion plan, several big shots were frightened by Fei Lengcui's appetite.
"With Fei Lengcui's current population and economic scale, isn't this military expansion plan a little difficult?" Zhang Geqian, president of Swire Bank, hesitated for a moment and spoke on behalf of everyone's mind. After all, Fei Lengcui's military expansion plan is not a problem of expanding 35,000, but a four-fold expansion at once. The active-duty soldiers will be expanded from more than 13,000 now to more than 58,000. It is not a simple expansion, but a comprehensive and systematic upgrade from personnel to equipment. How much does it cost? Just thinking about the scale of the Fei Lengcui Air Force introduced by Long Liexue is already aching.
"This year, Feilengcui will release national economic statistics for the first time. Thanks to the rapid growth of Feilengcui's gaming and tourism industry, the prosperity of regional trade and the adjustment of the overall economic structure in recent years, it is conservatively estimated that Feilengcui's GDP will exceed 41 for the first time exceed 100 million yuan. Focusing on the future, taking into account various factors such as population, economic growth, and regional and international situations. In order to cope with the extraordinary changes in the federal and regional situation, Feilengcui's national defense budget is
In the future, it will gradually account for 5%-8% of the proportion of Fei Lengcui's GDP. With military expenditure of no less than US$2.5 billion per year, it is appropriate to build a steel army that is sufficient to defend Fei Lengcui's interests in the Indochina Peninsula and the Golden Triangle. I think it is appropriate, and it is imperative to expand the scale of less than 60,000 people this time. It is not the upper limit of the development of Fei Lengcui's army. Depending on the development of the situation, according to the plan of Fei Lengcui's General Staff, the number of Fei Lengcui's army in the future should be about 120,000 people."
Long Liexu's words shocked the big guys around him. Although everyone knows that Fei Lengcui has developed very rapidly in recent years and the title of the Pearl of the Peninsula has become famous all over the world, it was not until this moment that everyone has an intuitive understanding of the wealth of King Guangming. He calculated in his mind that the military expenditure of no less than US$2.5 billion per year has exceeded the sum of the top ten armed armed forces in the Golden Triangle except Fei Lengcui. Compared with the current annual military expenditure of more than US$3 billion per year, it is only about 20%. However, the military scale of the Tadian Federation is
Forty or five hundred thousand, compared with neighboring countries, Cambodia's military expenditure this year is only more than 200 million US dollars, Laos is more than 100 million US dollars, Vietnam is less than 2 billion US dollars, and Thailand's expenses are more than 5 billion US dollars, which is almost twice that of Fei Lengcui. However, the number of the Thai team is five times that of Fei Lengcui's army. With such a high military expenditure and such a "military military", what does Fei Lengcui want to do? Will it be unified to unify the Federation? Several big bosses looked at each other, and Wu Shukai, president of Baili Bank Group, suddenly narrowed his eyes and asked a question, "Is the extraordinary change that Commander Lin just mentioned is because he is worried that there will be extraordinary changes in the domestic situation in the federal government?"
"The situation in the federal government is changing, but not very." Long Liexue's eyes flashed with a terrifying bright look. He glanced at the bosses around him, and his voice was slightly deeper. "The prelude of this extraordinary change will soon be opened in Asia. Wherever the change is reached, most Asian countries will be affected, and countless wealth will be destroyed. You are rich and have invested a lot in domestic and foreign industries. In the face of this extraordinary change, Lin has six words to send you off, 'Dig deep holes and accumulate grain'. I hope to prepare early so as not to be caught off guard, accumulate half a lifetime, and be a wedding dress for others."
If everyone was still shocked when they heard Long Liexue's expansion, then they were completely disgusted. The girl playing the piano over there ended her song, and many people around them gently clapped their hands. The music played by the professional orchestra in the cocktail venue also sounded at the right time. A field was automatically dispersed in the middle of the hall. Several pairs of men and women were already dancing on the empty venue with their hands holding hands in the music. The girls around the circle were already looking at this side with some eagerness to try, with their eyes shy, bold and full of expectations. The big guys here looked at each other, thinking that
Another purpose of the cocktail party was to have a tacit understanding. At this time, they could only suppress their questions and anxiety in their hearts and give the first half of the cocktail party to the young people here. While the young girls were hesitating whether to come forward to invite someone to dance a dance, a girl in a gorgeous red dress had already walked over to Long Liexue boldly. The red dress and the white delicate rose formed a strong visual effect, and in an instant, the girl who walked over became the focus of the silent attention of the whole woman.
"Dad, you guys drag him here. If you drag him down, you will become the public enemy of all the girls at the party." The girl walked over generously, hugged Zhang Geqian's arm, shouting in a coquettish manner, but her eyes were looking at Long Liexue.
"Hello, Miss Zhang, I didn't expect we would meet again." Long Liexu took the initiative to say hello to the girl.
