Chapter 707: Chapter 611: Lang Cai’s position (Please subscribe!)_1
Lang Cai agonized on the phone for a while.
His heart was full of envy, having such a good export project, Ling would surely make a lot of profit. While Ling enjoyed the lion’s share, he could only enjoy the crumbs.
Others could sell ’high technology,’ while all he could do was sell agricultural products and mineral resources. And even the pricing power was out of his hands, because there were others who also supplied these things.
With this thought in mind,
Lang Cai couldn’t help but feel depressed.
Originally he wanted to make use of some ’mine-clearing vehicles’ for himself. As it turns out, this is impossible now. He planned to keep them to deal with the other two parties in the future. If only Ling’s subordinates could operate them, then he might as well not have them now, since he’s not ready yet.
"Deputy Leader Ling, that’s fine then. I won’t need it in the short term. You can make money from it, I don’t mind, but I hope if we need it here, you can provide it promptly, is that alright?" Lang Cai had to ask for less.
"Sure, if you need them, just let us know a week ahead of time and we can supply at least ten mine-clearing vehicles." Ling agreed without any hesitation. The production of this ’high technology’ could now be described as ’astonishing’.
"That’s good. Deputy Leader Ling, don’t forget to come to Yangon for a meeting on the fifteenth. I have some important announcements to make then," said Lang Cai.
"I will be there on time," Ling assured.
"Alright, goodbye," said Lang Cai.
After hanging up the phone,
Lang Cai still couldn’t shake the feeling, so much money...
...
Meanwhile,
In the United States.
New York State.
Liu Zhi Farm.
It was already nighttime here.
Tang Qing and the others had only arrived two hours ago. After getting off the plane in New York, their Gulfstream G550 was taken back by Mu Jian’s father-in-law, who was said to be picking up a VIP. Therefore, they had to drive back to the farm in Mu Jian’s car.
All the way back, Mu Jian grumbled about his father-in-law.
Seeing the prosperity of New York after setting foot on the North American mainland, Tang Qing was not moved at all. In terms of urban construction, the future development rate of Huaxia will amaze the world, and New York will undoubtedly be surpassed.
In particular, evaluating a city is not just about skyscrapers, but also about culture and public safety.
The culture of New York is passable, at least on the surface it champions fairness and justice, with the media advocating freedom and democracy, even though it’s often slapped in the face by the actions of the U.S. government with a resounding slap.
As for the public safety here, Tang Qing could only wish to express his feelings at this moment with a laugh. After such a long time of understanding by the soldiers, he found that behind the shining city of New York, there was too much hidden darkness.
The darkness had reached a shocking level, and the amount of information he had gathered had increased with the increase in channels. His understanding now was hundreds of times that of police station records, encompassing the Internet, soldiers, American police records, and databases from several large American intelligence agencies.
Afterwards, it included the military quantum communication satellites that transmitted huge amounts of information 24 hours a day.
Once the information collected from these channels was compiled, it immediately shocked Tang Qing’s worldview, allowing him to witness the darkest side of the world.
As the volume of information was too large, the ’communication server’ bandwidth that was capable of shouldering the internet traffic worldwide at the time of his rebirth has now been occupied by 46%. The amount of information monitored in real time was simply too large.
Consequently, Tang Qing had no affection for the United States.
Justice.
Fairness.
Laughable...
After a long day of traveling, everyone was a little tired. After dinner, they returned to their rooms early to rest. Lin Jiaxue was also looking tired. Tang Qing was reluctant to get her to do anything else. After taking a shower, he simply held her in his arms.
Soon, Lin Jiaxue fell asleep.
Tang Qing cradled his beloved with his right hand.
Resting his left hand behind his head.
His mind was filled with matters in Myanmar.
Everything was developing as expected. The Myanmar Economic Zone was officially established with the approval of the Myanmar government, and Ling, as planned, has secured a relatively high position in Myanmar, although it’s just a marginal institution ’Myanmar Economic Development Committee’.
But this was enough, as the marginal institution also had its uses. This was a part of the plan and a key step in the Asia Dollar replacing the Myanmar Kyat. It just hadn’t exerted its influence yet.
But it wouldn’t be long.
The more critical matter was what Lang Cai was going to announce on the fifteenth.
Tang Qing knew that it was time for Lang Cai to select his successor. The candidate mainly held a position of leadership in a ministry in Myanmar. At this meeting, the candidate should be in a position equal to that of the deputy leader.
Tang Qing was not eager to see this result, because the candidate was too strong and extremely selfish. Comparatively, Lang Cai was very suitable. He was driven by a sense of national duty. Although he was indecisive, he was a good ’partner’.
The other good candidate was Kan Qin.
Previously, the soldiers had found Kan Qin and reached some medium-sized conditions with him. Of course, Kan Qin would not cooperate with people of unknown origin. But after the soldier’s explanation, Kan Qin realized that if Lang Cai elected his successor as expected,
Firstly,
He would be marginalized immediately, possibly even forced into early retirement. Yet, he was not too old, just in his fifties, and didn’t want to retire in disgruntlement. He felt he could still do a lot more.
Secondly, the man in question tended to be rather extreme and appeared to have some character issues, which Kan Qin didn’t like. The man’s ascent might not necessarily be a good thing for Myanmar, because Ling was also a dominant figure.
Damn it, when people have come knocking at their own doorstep, how can they not be dominant?
How would such people work together?
Conflict.
Intense conflict.
Kan Qin is unwilling to accept such a future, so he agrees to cooperate and bets with the fighter. As long as Lang Cai intends to do so, he must step forward and ’suggest’ a plan.
At the same time, the Fighter offered Kan Qin a proposition that disturbed his calm - to help him become Lang Cai’s successor. Initially, Kan Qin didn’t believe it. He was just a commoner, without any background or influence, which was precisely why Lang Cai dared to use him.
In Myanmar, without a background like Lang Cai’s, no one would support him. Even if Lang Cai strongly recommended him now, he couldn’t possibly ascend to the top. This was determined by birth.
However, after the Fighter’s whisper, Kan Qin gritted his teeth and agreed.
This was information that could bring down the heir apparent.
But this alone was not enough. Even if they brought down Zhang San, there would still be Li Si and Wang Wu. Because of Kan Qin’s background, his chances of ascending are not high. However, despite the slim chances, it wasn’t impossible.
It was just a bit difficult.
Any other deputy leader would be easier to maneuver, but they were not to be underestimated, with their complex background. Therefore, Kan Qin was a good choice - opportune, intelligent, and mindful of the overall situation.
Because he didn’t have a background, he was more likely to lean towards them.
However, now was not the time to act.
Only when he reached the peak of his pride, could he be ousted with a slap in the face, and possibly push Kan Qin up. Neither advancing nor delaying would work, and the plan was ready. All they had to do was wait for the harvest, but more arrangements were needed during this period.
They needed some ’extras’. The eight Myanmar people in the Myanmar Asia Chamber of Commerce would be the ’extras’ for this performance, not knowing they had fallen into the trap.
As for Ling becoming the leader? He didn’t even qualify. Even though Ling was in a high position now, it would be much more difficult than Kan Qin. For the sake of balancing the interests and psychology of all parties, Ling wouldn’t compete with Kan Qin for that position.
After pondering for a while,
Tang Qing stopped this brain-burning activity when he realized there was basically no problem.
Headache.
He was a banker. Instead of thinking about how to make money, he was thinking about how to trap people and play cunning schemes all day long. Tang Qing was tired. If he were a pure entrepreneur, he wouldn’t have so much trouble.
Hunting a country,
was too stressful.
Fortunately, he wasn’t foolish enough to want to live the life of an ordinary entrepreneur, worrying about profits and costs all day, competing with rivals, expanding the market, and fearing to offend powerful people, and going bankrupt overnight.
With such massive power in hand,
Tang Qing was a bit addicted. At this time, his fighters had embarked on the journey to conquer the monetary world. He didn’t know whether he would be swollen with pride in the future, but it was something he had to pay attention to.
He didn’t want to become a cold-blooded person solely concerned with profit.
Fortunately, Lin Jiaxue was by his side. Every time he saw her smile, all of Tang Qing’s utilitarianism seemed to be put down.
After a while, Tang Qing decided to clear his head.
He took out his mobile phone, put on earphones, and started watching a documentary about various creatures on the African Savannah. He wanted to watch something more exciting, but was afraid he couldn’t control himself.
It was still early in the night...
...
The next day.
Early morning.
Soft sunlight streamed into the room. The curtains had been drawn the night before, but Tang Qing pulled them apart with his telekinetic powers before dawn. He wanted to see the sunrise over the farm because the guest room was designed at the optimum angle for the view.
In the room,
Tang Qing was still energised after watching nature documentaries all night. Looking at Lin Jiaxue, he saw a burning desire in her eyes. He couldn’t help it; watching such documentaries alone was one thing.
But watching with someone in your arms was a different matter altogether.
There were two words that lingered in his mind, echoing in his ears.
Soon thereafter,
Stimulated by the sunlight,
Lin Jiaxue slowly woke up.
When she opened her eyes, she saw Tang Qing’s invasive gaze and the faint smirk on his face.
"Jiaxue," Tang Qing called.
"Hmm," Lin Jiaxue evaded Tang Qing’s gaze.
"Did you get enough rest?" Tang Qing said, smiling.
"Yes... I did." Lin Jiaxue knew exactly what Tang Qing meant, her voice as soft as a mosquito’s.
"Hehe, that’s good."
After laughing, Tang Qing turned over.
More than half an hour later,
Tang Qing and Lin Jiaxue neatly dressed and appeared in the living room. It seemed that they were the earliest to rise. The servants had already prepared breakfast and Tang Qing started eating without any hesitation.
Knowing Tang Qing’s appetite, it seemed that Mu Jian had specifically instructed the servants to prepare a full table of food.
