2663: C2663 The Port Is on Fire

C2663 The Port Is on Fire

The President's eyes were immediately wide open, round, and at that moment, the night was dark, but outside, it looked brighter.

From where he was, he could see the port in the distance. He opened the curtains and looked into the distance. Sure enough, there was a raging fire burning at the port!

It was on fire, how could it be on fire?

Oh no, it was on fire! The President finally reacted and loudly shouted: "Quick, mobilize all our forces, go put out the fire together!"

This was definitely adding to the disaster! Originally, they had sufficient reserves of foreign currencies. But now... Once the fire started, it would be a huge problem, in the President's heart... In an instant, the alarm went off outside... Fire trucks were rushing towards the port.

An oil mill parked here was emitting thick smoke. The crude oil was thick and hard to ignite, even if it was directly ignited. It would not be possible to ignite it. But at the same time, once it was ignited, it would be quite difficult to put it out.

The fire truck arrived at the port and began to spray fire gas at the oil tanker. They were anxiously trying to save it, but they forgot about another matter, to evacuate the surrounding cargo ships!

Black smoke soared into the sky, and large amounts of ash fell from the sky. It even covered the entire Lion City with a layer of ash. The scene looked like... The firefighters had been fighting for the whole night. Just as the oil ship was about to be extinguished, a container ship next to it... It was ignited!

When they saw the cargo ship igniting thick smoke, the firefighters were dumbfounded. Inside the container of the cargo ship were luxurious cars!

These were vehicles transported from R Country and were intended to be transported to Desert Area for sale. In recent years, the economy of R Country had been in a rather bad state. Thus, the exit of the R Country's cars was even more important. Especially in Desert Area, the cars in R Country were very popular. Their Mitsubishi Pagero and other off-road vehicles were simply the favorite of the rich in the desert. Now, with this huge fire, cars came one after another. They were lit up in the container.

The fire at the city gate affected the fish in the pond, let alone the crude oil transport ship. Sticky crude oil spluttered everywhere. Wherever it landed, it would be the fire!

Fortunately, this was a container ship, and they could use the most primitive way to extinguish the fire. It was seawater! A few firefighters finally got close and directly extracted the sea water. After extinguishing the fire on the container ship, but... Unfortunately, the cars on the ship were all burned down. Even if there was no fire inside, just the container being roasted... It was destined to be destroyed and could no longer be used.

The R People was refined and would definitely not sell this kind of defective goods. How much could this ship of high-grade cars be worth?

In the morning, the last trace of flame also disappeared. Looking at the situation at the port, the officials of Lion City were in despair and wanted to cry.

"Someone must be behind this!" The President gritted his teeth and said, "They deliberately created this fire. This is a barbaric invasion of Lion City's order. This matter must be investigated to the end!"

"Mr. President, we will definitely investigate to the end. But before that, we still need to solve a big problem" The Minister of Economics also had a look of embarrassment and exhaustion on his face as he looked at the President, his voice was filled with worry:" These cargo ships, something happened at our port, so, the shipping companies will definitely come and find us to compensate for their losses... Especially that container ship "

"Hmph, we have investigated the truth of the accident, so naturally, there will be people who will take responsibility for the loss. Could it be that they want us to compensate them?" The President said.

What else can we do now? He had to deny it. If he wanted them to compensate him, it would be an astronomical figure.

A cargo ship, a few thousand cars, a car... According to 500,000 yuan, that would be billions. If it was in the past... This naturally wasn't much. Lion City could pay in advance. When they found the culprit, they could ask the other party to compensate them. But now, it was no longer possible. They were currently short on funds. If they were to take out such a huge sum of money... How could they have the funds to resist the impending crisis?

"But, the other side has already found us" The Minister of Economics said: "The other side's ambassador personally came to ask us to compensate for this We are the port, we are responsible for the fire at the port, the Minister of Economics said. Now, if we don't respond to this directly, then, the number of ships docked at our port will decrease."

Reputation is very important. After all, there are so many ports in the entire Six Vest Straits. Why is the Lion City the most popular place? Naturally, it was the reputation that had been accumulated over a long period of time. Now... If they refused to admit their debt like this, it would cause the public opinion to decline. It wasn't easy to obtain a good reputation, but if it was a bad reputation... A matter of minutes.

"Right, isn't there an insurance company?" At this moment, someone thought of something. That's right, they wanted compensation. Shouldn't the insurance company compensate for the losses? This way, the risks could be shifted.

"Now, the one who is looking for us is their insurance company. Their insurance company wants to sue us for the lack of supervision in our port. Their insurance company can't afford to pay for this kind of loss." The Minister of Economics said.

After talking for a long time, he came back again. This time, was Lion City going to pay for it or not?

"Not good, not good!"

Every time he heard this voice, the President had the urge to beat someone up. What was wrong with that? Could it be worse than now?

"Another person is attacking our currency!"

The other party's intentions were extremely sinister. At this critical juncture, they had actually come to set fire to the city. The people of Lion City were furious at such behavior. If they were able to catch the mastermind behind this incident, they would definitely not add fuel to the fire. They would be able to eat it alive.

However, they had no other way right now. They could not find the real culprit, or it would be too late by the time they found it.

As expected, every copper coin of those damn merchants was stained with blood.

"Spread our foreign currencies to stabilize our currency" The President said, although he knew that doing so would result in even more terrifying consequences, they would fall into the other side's trap, but now they had no choice, if their currency exchange rate became unstable, then their economy would suffer heavy losses. The Luo Country's today would be their tomorrow.2

The huge reserves of foreign currency in Lion City were continuously flowing into the market. Stabilizing their currency, however, it was as if they had entered a vast ocean. No matter how much they invested, it was useless. On the display of their terminals... The exchange rate continued to drop, and no one knew how many more currencies were being traded!
