2658: C2658 The Canal Was Opened

C2658 The Canal Was Opened

The economy here was one entity. It was very simple. Many of the things that were exported from Luo Country were sold to the surrounding countries. Everyone's economy had already formed a net-like structure. It was impossible for them to be separated.

Now, the currency order in Lion City had also started to be affected, but they were not worried.

"Yeah, our economy is relatively stable. We have strong foreign reserves, and we can resist any sudden situation." The President said from above: "We can pay close attention to the situation in real time, once we find out that those countries are gathering towards our country, we will launch a fierce counterattack to make them lose everything"

Lion City was originally doing business all over the world, and their finances were the strongest here. How could it cause their economy to collapse just because some international investors came to cause trouble?

They have a huge reserve of foreign currencies. If those people dare to come, they will lose everything!

"We will pay close attention to it. The capital is currently spreading to the countries around us, but up until now, it hasn't affected us yet." The Minister of Economics said.

At this moment, a secretary suddenly rushed in and said to everyone, "Sorry for disturbing you. Now, please take a look at the news released by Han Country."

What does the news about Han Country have to do with us? Everyone present felt strange, but this secretary was very experienced and could not interrupt everyone's meeting.

On the wall, there was a special LCD TV imported from Han Country. The entire TV was a thin flat and looked very modern. Very quickly, a picture appeared on the TV. On it was a news spokesperson from Han Country speaking.

"We have been paying close attention to the economic situation that has happened near us recently. We have seen that all the countries are suffering from a serious economic crisis. There are all kinds of clues that show that this is the capital operation of some shameless capitalists. Regarding this, we express a strong protest! "

Hmph, Han people, when did you learn this trick? Is there any use in protesting? But that's also true. They will only protest. Other than that, what else can they do?

"At this critical moment, our Han Country will not ignore it. We have decided to use our strength to help the various countries maintain order. Now... The first to experience an economic crisis is Luo Country, and we will invest a large sum of money. We will help the Luo Country stabilize its economy. "

Invest funds? Han people had earned a lot of money over the years. Their military strength and economic strength were both very strong. By doing so now, they were probably seeking some political benefits. Through this crisis, they are able to rope in the surrounding countries and form a community of interests?

It seemed like they really knew how to choose time. The president was still relatively relaxed at this moment. This was nothing, and it did not affect them at all. After all, the financial stability of Luo Country was beneficial to other countries.

"Directly investing in the financial market is the worst. Therefore, we have decided to invest in the domestic market of Luo Country. Increase their labor, employment, and economic income. After much research, we have decided to invest in the opening of the canal in the Luo Country. "

What, the canal? When they heard this, everyone stopped. They finally understood why the secretary would interrupt their meeting. This project... It would bring a huge change to the situation in the entire region!

Lion City would also suffer a huge blow because of this!

Right now, the Six Barrel Straits was the most important waterway in the world. This was not the international public sea, which allowed one to freely sail, but the narrow waterways on both sides. It makes the route very dangerous, and the countries on both sides... It was also because of this that Lion City developed.

If one looked at the map of the world, they would find that the shape of Luo Country's territory was very special. The north area was very large, and the south was long and narrow. It belonged to a Peninsula. On both sides of this Peninsula were the Peaceful Ocean and the White Elephant Ocean. At the same time, ， this narrow strip was different, the narrowest part... Only 50 kilometers, the width is 150 kilometers... This place was called the Gorge of Clarity.

Actually, over the past few hundred years, there had been such an idea. To open up a canal on the Gorge of Clarity, this way... He wouldn't need to go south to the Strait of Six Vests, but directly from here... Through the canal, he would be able to travel between the Peaceful Ocean and the White Elephant Ocean. This method was at least a thousand nautical miles shorter than before! For a large oil tanker, a single trip would save millions of dollars in expenditure. This was quite a sizable amount.

However, all this time, it was just a thought. It was not really implemented because there were many aspects to it. For example, the economic strength of Luo Country itself wasn't enough to support such a huge project. Also, Lion City and other countries weren't willing to do so. Wait a minute. In short, it had been delayed until now.

The Han Country had waited for this opportunity!

There was an economic crisis in Luo Country, and they urgently needed the support of the currency. Han Country also had a huge reserve of foreign currencies, so they could totally invest in it. Even if it was just a fifty year management fee for the construction of this canal, it's pretty impressive, too. Besides, even if they didn't charge management fees, the opening of this canal would also be very beneficial to the Han Country. This was because this was the most suitable passageway to the Europe in the Han Country. All the cargo ships in the Han Country would benefit from it.

Now, the Han Country had become a huge economic country, and the demand for overseas trade was also very strong. They wanted to import crude oil and export all kinds of industrial products, but in Lion City, it had always been controlled by Y Country. If there was any war... They might be strangled. This way, they could directly open up a canal in the Luo Country. This was a pretty good opportunity.

Would the Luo Country object? They urgently needed funds to get rid of the economic crisis, so they would most likely welcome them.

If that was the case, then what about the Lion City?

Once the canal was successfully opened, the status of Lion City would be greatly reduced, and it would even be completely buried on the stage of history. All the freighters would go to the canal of Luo Country, and Lion City would be nothing!

Damn it, the Han people was clearly killing two birds with one stone! Everyone present couldn't help but want to curse. With Han Country's actions, Lion City's economy would suffer a heavy blow. In fact, the Lion City might not be able to recover from this setback in the future!

Once their source of income disappeared, the decline of the entire empire would be inevitable.

"No, we can't let such a thing happen!" The Minister of Economics said: "We don't agree!"

The nearby countries that benefited from the Six Vests Water Road would not agree. However, what could they do if they did not agree? Could they interfere with the operation of Han Country? What the Han Country was doing now was to help the Luo Country recover its economy. It was an act of justice.2

Everyone fell into despair.
