It was stressful, but it was obvious that this trick was of no use to this guy. He still happily put his mouth to it. Some of the people eating around obviously knew this guy. After thinking about his future

It's better not to mess with this guy. If Li had never been here, this matter would be really difficult to solve. As soon as Li walked five meters away from the guy, two men in black came over.

"Boy, don't look for trouble." A big black man wanted to push Li Cong away, but what he didn't expect was that this guy who didn't look very strong didn't push him at all despite his own strength. Li Cong knocked him down with just one kick.

These two guys kicked me under the table and caused trouble on my property. You guys are really smart.

"Damn it, who are you to interfere with the young master's good deeds? Get out of here. Damn it, you Chinese bastard. If you damn people hadn't come to us, would we be like this now?"

The rich young man was grinning. Li Cong knew that because of his annexation of Central Asia, most of the original Chinese people had changed from lower class people to upper class people. This guy might have been a lower class person before. At this moment, he felt

Just a little depressed.

"It seems that you are very unfriendly to us Chinese. Originally, I felt that we are a country of etiquette and I should give you face, but now I find that people like you don't need face at all." Li Cong said.

After grabbing this guy by the collar, he threw him out. Everyone was shocked. This guy was really powerful. He must have weighed at least 180 kilograms. From the look of this guy, he looked like he wouldn't be able to throw it out.

How laborious.

"Hey, Chinese, you are going too far. Although this is the hotel of the Energy Group, this is not your place. This is on the territory of our Great Russia." Li Cong's move of hitting the guy hard made some people around him eat.

Everyone feels very unhappy, damn, when this guy bullied our female compatriots just now, I didn’t see any of you righteous people coming out. Why are you so motivated now? It can be seen that he is not really a righteous person.

, but Li Cong is not alone. There are several tables of Chinese people eating around here. Although the number of people is not very large, they are all standing next to Li Cong at this time. They all say that a group of Chinese people are nests.

Chong, a Chinese is like a dragon, and this is especially true of overseas Chinese.

"Humph, what are you talking about? Our friend was defending himself just now. Now your people can't beat him alone. Now you are talking about this. It's embarrassing."

"That's right, don't think that we are easy to bully because we are small. Look at what we do. What you eat and drink are not brought by us from the country. Although you are all powerful people here, if we risk everything, will you?"

I've made money from you, what do you think?" A few Chinese people saw those old idiots coming up to fight in a group. Recently, the relationship between the two countries has declined sharply, and many Chinese people have also suffered certain losses, so

When something like this happens, someone will immediately come forward without the need for anyone to persuade you.

"Back then, you closed down our warehouse and said what happened to our products? Now if you have the ability, you can go check it out. We don't care. At the worst, we don't want the things in that warehouse. We have made enough money from you, so we will just throw them away.

It's just as valuable as those goods, but I don't see how you can survive this winter without our goods. You have a lot of minerals here. I wonder if those things can be used as food?" Li Cong became more and more excited as he spoke.

The protagonist is not the most important now. It seems that the dispute he caused has risen to the level of two countries.

"Get out of the way, what's going on, please don't watch." Li Cong thought this was said by the police. Who knew that the two men with guns who came over looked like they were not the local police, but probably people from the energy group.

It seems that Li Cong's influence in the local area is not a vegetarian, and these old fools really need to be disciplined.

"I really didn't expect that our relationship with Lao Maozi has reached this level in the past few years." Li Cong was still sighing after leaving the hotel. The pressure to coexist peacefully was too great. In fact, it was mainly from Russia.

pressurized.

With the rapid expansion of war relations, the economic, trade and political relations between the energy group and Russia are improving in an all-round way. However, observers have noticed that the attitudes of both parties at the actual operational level of economic and trade activities are inconsistent with this rapid improvement.

The overall relationship is very uncoordinated. The energy group's enthusiasm for developing economic and trade relations with Russia is in sharp contrast with the Russians' indifference to this.

Ms. Elizabeth Wishnick, a researcher at the Institute of East Asian Studies at Columbia University, is a prolific expert on East Asian issues and often conducts field trips to the border areas of Russia and energy groups. Wishnick pointed out that in Russia

People can strongly feel this contrast along the border area of ​​Sri Lanka's Far East.

Ms. Wishnik said: “Energy groups have always been very enthusiastic about the concept of regional integration, much more enthusiastic than the Russians. Energy group people think that integration is a win-win situation. Energy groups in border areas want to bypass bureaucracy.

The shackles of institutions have made a lot of efforts to create better conditions for the development of border trade."

The black market opens the door to Russian universities

Professor Wishnik gave an example and said that in January this year, the Northeast Heihe Municipal Government expanded the border area from Heihe Island to Heihe City to facilitate Russians to conduct trading activities in Heihe City. Regarding the energy group

Russians are also allowed to live without a visa for 30 days. Russians can purchase real estate there and conduct business activities freely. However, on the other side of the border, Russia has not provided corresponding conveniences to energy groups.

Why is Russia so cautious about developing bilateral trade? Experts from energy groups pointed out that there are two reasons. One is that they are worried that the rapid growth of bilateral trade will cause serious damage to Russia's natural resources. The other is that they are worried that energy groups

A large presence in the Far East will pose a threat to the Russians there.

Josh Newell, an American scholar of Russian natural resources and author of the book "Guide to the Russian Far East", said that the Russian Far East has now transformed from the natural resource base of the Soviet Union in the past.

The natural resource base of East Asian countries. In the trade structure of Russia's Far East with China, the single characteristic of natural resources is very obvious. In addition to minerals, the largest export item is timber.

Newell said: "Energy Group is now the world's second-largest timber importer. Russia's timber exports to Energy Group accounted for 40% of total timber imports. Last year, Russia's timber exports to Energy Group were as high as

15 million cubic meters, more than three times Japan’s timber imports. This has put huge pressure on Russia’s forest development.”

*Energy Group bans logging of forests in Northeast China* Newell said that in 1998, the domestic authorities issued a decree prohibiting logging of forests in Northeast China for Energy Group. This ban led to a rapid increase in the amount of Russian timber imported by Energy Group. Russian businessmen who are mercenary and

Energy group companies have used legal and illegal means to log and export timber, causing great damage to Russia's virgin forests. Many people in Russia are worried about this phenomenon and believe that if things go on like this, the consequences will be disastrous.

One issue that Russians are more worried about is the immigration of energy groups. The Russian population in the Far East continues to decrease, and the continuous entry of energy group people into this region makes many Russians uneasy, and they consider going to Russia.

Energy conglomerates who do business, work and live in the country regard it as a "yellow peril" and a threat to Russia's economic development and prosperity.

Nicholas Eberstadt, an expert on Russian population issues at the American Enterprise Institute, believes that Russia's population is declining, and the decline in the Far East is even more pronounced.

Eberstadt said: "According to the Russian census results from 1989 to 2002, during this period, Russia's population experienced negative growth, with a total of nearly 2 million people. At this stage, Russia's Far East

The population of the region has also declined. In 1989, the population of this region was 8 million, but by 2002 there were only 6.67 million people left. The population decrease in the Far East accounted for two-thirds of the population decrease in the entire federation. In some places in the Far East

The rate of population reduction was as high as 50% or even more than 60%.”

Due to the territorial disputes between the two countries in the Far East of Russia, the suspicion between the two sides is deep-rooted. Although bilateral energy relations, economic relations, and even political relations are improving significantly, Russia and Russia are not interested in the interests of energy groups in its Far East.

We have always maintained a high degree of vigilance against economic penetration and population expansion. There are reports that Russian President Vladimir Putin issued a warning to officials in the Far East a few years ago, saying that if the Russians there could not develop the economy as soon as possible,

In a few years, everyone in this area will probably speak Chinese. This is definitely not alarmist.

"Sir, I have to say that there is a more important reason. Although bilateral trade has been going on, most of the time our people are making profits, and their people are suffering losses. Do you think

If you were to do something like this, would you continue to do this kind of business? Also, I don’t like to defend my shortcomings. People in this country place too much emphasis on strength, and their brains are not as good as yours, sir.

Everyone knows that the Chinese are very smart, and we don’t have enough brains to do business with you." The two points that Karelina said are very important, and Li Cong also took them into consideration,

This is the situation now, and the conflict between the two sides is getting more and more intense.

Russia has a complicated and allergic realistic mentality towards China. Russia is actually more suspicious of the rapid rise of its southern neighbor than the United States across the Pacific. It turns out that the Shanghai Cooperation Organization with China and Russia as its axis has developed rapidly, and the Russians can still be in this organization.

He plays the role of first or second in command, but since the energy group took power, he has been excluded from this organization, because the war in the Middle East has shown that Russia simply does not have the qualifications to become a first-class power.

It's absolutely right to choose the right tree to live in. Why should I bother you if you have a more powerful backer?

In fact, the current relationship is entirely due to the joint efforts of the United States and Europe to squeeze the strategic geopolitical space. In order to resist Europe's eastward expansion and to break through the island chain in the Pacific, the two sides naturally came together. After the financial crisis, on the one hand, the strength of the United States and Europe

On the other hand, the strength of energy groups has increased. Under this situation, Russia has begun to be wary of energy groups. Coupled with the territorial disputes left over from history, cheap goods are rampant in Russia, and a large number of people are pouring into the Far East. In recent years, the mainstream media in Russia have been

Advocating the "threat theory". Last year, Russia transferred part of the sovereignty of Heixiazi Island, and people in both countries were filled with dissatisfaction.

Troubled by many contradictions in history and reality, friendship seems unable to withstand the test of time. When it comes to conflicts, Russia has always been aggressive, and energy groups are also very tough. If it were not properly controlled, it would be hard to say what would happen.

When Li Cong returned to the room, he immediately called the director of the local branch. Maybe he had first-hand information.

"Have the conflicts between our people and the locals begun to intensify recently?" Li Cong asked straight to the point. There is indeed no need to beat around the bush about such things.

"Sir, the conflicts between us and them have never been eliminated. In fact, this is mainly because our identities are different from before. In the past, they could bully us at will, but now they dare not bully us. But our people

I have been bullied before and I have to pay it back now. Maybe I have done too much sometimes, so? 1???" The manager did not continue. In his opinion, Li Cong might be a little annoyed, and he was too indulgent to his subordinates? Maybe

Will be punished.

"What percentage of property do we have in this city?" Li Cong thought of a key question. When he was walking on the street just now, he saw many gorgeous houses with the ny logo written on them. Some of them were indeed companies of the energy group.

Some people just put up signs. By putting up this sign, at least you don’t have to worry about anyone looking for trouble. Even the police won’t come to your door casually to look for trouble.

"Sir, we hold 25% of the high-end properties in the city, and more than 10% of the ordinary properties." The manager said with a mouthful of foam.

"No wonder people are so hostile to us, but it's okay. It's time to teach them a lesson now, but I hope you can understand that things should be done in a measured way. If you go too far, even mud will have a temper.

When an honest person loses his temper, it can only be more terrifying, do you understand?" Some words need not be said too clearly, Li Cong explained a few words to No. 9, I believe this guy is not a fool.

"Don't worry, sir, I will take care of the people below. If there is nothing else, I will go out first." The manager quietly closed the door for Li Cong, and there was already a layer of sweat on his back. In fact, the reason why there are so many people in the city

The current situation is caused by this guy's operation. Anyway, many locals went bankrupt a while ago. The price is like picking up for free. Their domestic rubles are like garbage, and a sack of rubles is not necessarily comparable.

A stack of RMB is valid, and it was like a money grab at the time. If their government hadn't intervened later, at least half of the houses with "ny" written on them in the city would have been occupied, which means that half of the people here would have become Li Cong's tenants.

of.

"Mr. Li, the two people who had dinner with you yesterday are here again. Do you want to see them?" But this experience came back only a few minutes after I left.

Haha, it seems that those two guys have already achieved results. Li Cong waved his hand, "Make tea, and then invite them in. Don't let anyone disturb me." He gave himself such a huge military base, if he does it again

It would be unreasonable to say that there is no performance.

"Haha, gentlemen, I really didn't expect that we would meet so soon. I thought you would need a few days to think about it. Don't talk nonsense. You have to tell me what the outcome will be."

Li Cong smiled and let the two of them sit on his sofa.

"Mr. Li, we have decided to accept your suggestion, but we hope you can give us some time. We need two years to evacuate that city. I hope you can give us this time." Ste said through gritted teeth.

Years are enough for you to do some soft damage. If you want to get a huge military port, it is impossible. It will be good if we don't mess around.

After two years, it felt like these two guys were playing tricks on me. Li Cong smiled, picked up the tea cup and took a sip of water. You two are still too young to play with me.
