1890 King of Southeast Asia

On January 31, the British ambassador to the Netherlands met with Hu Xihua to discuss the trial of Reed.

"Hu! My friend, thank God you are fine." British Ambassador to the Netherlands Reed excitedly held Hu Xihua's hand.

"Are you feeling better, my friend?" Reed sat beside Hu Xihua's bed.

"Thanks to you, I'm fine~~ How about you, my friend, come in?" Hu Xihua's voice was a little playful, because on the surface, the murderer who injured Hu Xihua was a British.

"Oh... I'm fine, God bless..." Reed began to chat with Hu Xihua.

"I heard that you like traditional Chinese architecture, I happen to have one, I heard it is a courtyard with a history of 230 years, but it is in the capital..." Reed put down a bunch of keys.

The two talked and laughed, looking like two friends who had not seen each other for a long time chatting, Reed was enthusiastic, and Hu Xihua was a little cold.

"Oh! Speaking of His Majesty's health, His Majesty has not been sleeping well recently." Reid looked regretful.

"What's wrong? The British Empire controls the sea power and is in the four seas. No country in the world can challenge the British Empire. Your Majesty, Britain should rest assured." Hu Xihua smiled.

"That's it... You know, the Germans are trying to extend their hegemony to the sea. Speaking of this, I really want to thank Nanhua for its help." Reid made a gentleman's salute.

"If it weren't for Nanhua, Britain might be at a disadvantage in the recent arms race."

"Don't say that. The friendship between South and Britain can stand the test. I believe that Britain will not let its friends pay in vain." Hu Xihua waved his hand.

"To be honest, compared with the Royal Navy, the Imperial Army does not seem so strong, even a little weak, which is not very beneficial in Britain's future strategy...

You know, the British Empire is undergoing strategic contraction. In the British-Indian region, in Australia, in... Southeast Asia, the British Empire has carried out a comprehensive strategic retreat." Reid said awkwardly.

"Don't say that. I believe that the British Empire Army can still maintain fairness and justice around the world." Hu Xihua waved his hand.

"No, No, No, there is a saying in China that in Southeast Asia, reducing the number of troops stationed, saving military expenses, and using them to...improve the combat effectiveness of the army." Reed made an offer.

"You mean..." Hu Xihua knew that Reed had made an offer, but he didn't know what Reed was talking about, nor did he know what Britain wanted.

Just one attack case can't affect too much. At most, Britain will not manage Reed.

Reducing stationing ≈ withdrawing troops = reducing the scope of control.

Telling you in advance, the basic meaning is to prepare you to take over.

This is the offer!

"We hope to start with Thailand. You know, we control Thailand just to ensure the security of the British Indian region. The input and output of Britain in some places are not proportional. This matter has been mentioned in Parliament...

If reliable allies are allowed to participate in the management of Thailand and let them formulate a reliable management system, then perhaps this situation can be changed." Reed looked at the ceiling and said thoughtfully.

Hu Xihua looked at the ceiling, and there was nothing on it.

"Red, this question may embarrass you, but I don't know that... Red? Right? How is he? How does the Netherlands plan to deal with him?" Hu Xihua thought for a long time and asked with sudden enlightenment.

Word five, six, three seven, three, three, three, six, five five five

"Oh~ this matter... um... the Dutch official considers international practice and hopes to punish severely, but because this is an international incident, the UK hopes to extradite him and be tried by the UK." At this point, Red changed his sitting position and looked into Hu Xihua's eyes.

"Of course! We guarantee that this... terrorist, your emperor calls him that, he will go to the gallows and receive the punishment he deserves." Red said sincerely.

Britain certainly knows the reason why the Netherlands is holding people back - Nanhua is exerting pressure.

But Britain can't watch the Netherlands judge the British - in public in the hall.

This will greatly hurt the feelings of the two countries and is extremely unfavorable to Britain's grand strategy.

"This is just an exception. Generally, it is handled according to the principle of jurisdiction and local laws." Hu Xihua thought for a while.

Britain has made "huge" concessions, and Nanhua has only two choices - agree or negotiate.

The price increase can't be much, unless it conflicts with the British because of this matter - it's not worth it.

"Of course! Thank you for your generosity." Reed said.

After Reed left, Hu Xihua took the house key, smiled, and took out the latest intelligence summary of ScI.

"Soon..."

………

It was also January 31st. Liu Yiming had just started working for a few days and got a report that made him suffocate.

"Seven officials swallowed five million tons of grain. The largest one was at the county level. There were more than 20 people involved in the case. Do you think I believe it?" Liu Yiming slapped the report in front of Chen Simin.

"Is this the final investigation data of the parliament?" Liu Yiming looked at Chen Simin.

Chen Simin stood up: "We are stepping up the interrogation of these people, and there is some evidence... pointing to the inside of the Construction Corps."

"No matter who it is, you can't touch the emergency reserve. You are not without the right to check the Construction Corps." Liu Yiming held his forehead.

Half a month ago, the New Year was approaching, Liu Yiming packed up his things and happily waited for the arrival of the holiday.

On January 20, the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, Jiang Wang sent him a document about the abnormal grain import and export records in some areas.

Liu Yiming thought he just caught a few mice, took a quick look, and then couldn't help it.

Involving several cities in Borneo, Coconut City and Semarang on Java Island, and several areas of the Construction Corps, there have been large-scale abnormal grain exports.

On the eve of the rice harvest, at the peak of international rice trade, Nanhua sold millions of tons of unplanned grain to the outside world.

Nanhua's grain is cultivated in a planned manner, and the annual grain export volume is basically determined. Most of the surplus grain is stored or used as industrial raw materials.

In theory, these grains will enter the grain reserve warehouse or emergency material reserve warehouse, and some of them will be directly transported to the factory for product processing.

At this time of the year, there will not be too much grain flowing into the market, let alone exporting.

Liu Yiming immediately ordered the Audit Bureau to stop the vacation and find out the reasons for this abnormal grain flow.

Once checked, the big tiger was found.

As the main grain producing areas, the two islands have nearly 5 million tons of grain in the seven emergency reserve warehouse projects, and the Audit Bureau only saw empty warehouses.

Even the intelligence officers thought that they might have gone to the wrong warehouse, which was temporarily unused.

On the first day of the first lunar month, Liu Yiming held a "small meeting" with officials above the minister level in Nanhua.

The meeting started at five in the morning and ended at eight in the evening. Liu Yiming thoughtfully prepared a glass of water for everyone.

On the second day of the first lunar month, the police department and customs began to tighten the entry and exit policies. Because it was a corruption issue, according to the procedure, the matter was taken over by the parliament.

The parliament only started work on the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, and the speaker Chen Simin was forced by Liu Yiming to start the investigation immediately.

"I hope you can play your due role and don't make it difficult for me." Liu Yiming endured it again and again.

If he waited like this, it would be very likely that the real murderer would stay out of the matter, but Liu Yiming needed to maintain the operation of the parliamentary system.

The last time the Chinese had a parliament, it can be traced back to the Zhou Dynasty. The parliament only discussed but did not decide, and finally relied on the power in its hands to solve the problem.

In a normal modern system, the parliament must play a role. Unless the country is in a state of emergency, Liu Yiming cannot directly interfere in this matter.

That way there will be a precedent, and someone might follow the rules in the future. Over time, the parliament will lose this right...

"You are the speaker, you should guarantee the rights of the parliament, regardless of who the other party is, who is the son of so-and-so, who is the son-in-law of so-and-so, what he does, and who is behind him.

No, I don't want the parliament to become the government's answering machine in the future. It's better to disband it now."

"Yes... I know, we will increase the intensity of the interrogation."

Chen Simin repeatedly assured that Liu Yiming would let him go.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister is here." Secretary Wang pushed open the door and said before Liu Yiming sat down for a while.

"Come in." Liu Yiming had just finished speaking when Xu Hui came in.

After moving, Liu Yiming's office and Xu Hui's office were only a few dozen meters apart, making it very convenient for both sides to travel.

"This is the result of the government's self-examination. Unexpectedly, the highest official we found out is the director of the Semarang Emergency Management Bureau, a former member of the Corps, who transferred out of the Corps to work in 1997." Xu Hui said.

"Is it accurate? Don't favor anyone. I will ask someone to check it." Liu Yiming asked directly without looking at the document.

"We found account books and transaction records in his home, as well as a large amount of foreign currency. Everything can be justified." Xu Hui was not sure.

All internal information indicated that the participants were not in high positions, but Xu Hui was not sure how many of his subordinates were clean.

5 million tons of grain, the market price is between 14-16 yuan, the market value is 70 to 80 million, this money is now.

A simple calculation shows that this is the cost of five Dahan modified, that is, Xuchang-class battleships.

The South China Navy, ranked fourth in the world, has only two Xuchang-class ships, and the other two are only large-caliber guns, and other parameters are not as good as the Xuchang-class.

Such a large amount of funds is enough to pull many people into the water.

"Don't make it public for the time being, keep an eye on those people, and let the parliament deal with it." Liu Yiming touched his chin.

Anti-corruption cannot rely on a certain leader, it must have a system that changes with the times - the parliament is the system he established.

He wants to establish the prestige of the parliament and rely on it to fight corruption in the future.

"There's news from the Netherlands that the British hope to use Thailand's interests in exchange for our relaxation on the attack." Xu Hui just nodded. He had to avoid government affairs.

"What did Hu Xihua say?" Liu Yiming asked.

"Hu Xihua said it would not affect the original plan."

"Then do it according to his idea."
