Chapter 1999 - 1999: 1999

Seeing such news, Liu Zhizhong knew that this vacation was over.

The brief yet sweet reunion with Zhang Minmin also had to come to an end.

Of course, national affairs take priority, and Zhang Minmin didn't oppose him in the slightest.

Zhang Minmin even stated that she would return and set up a branch of the tourism company in Wale, primarily to manage and coordinate the tourism business there, providing service and assistance to people traveling from Great East Country; at the same time, her company would also establish a travel agency to organize cross-border tours so she would have more opportunities to be with Liu Zhizhong.

Liu Zhizhong appreciated and supported this kind of company operation. He also stated that the Wale Republic would provide strong support for Zhang Minmin's work in all aspects, as long as it does not violate any regulations.

After breakfast, the two reluctantly said goodbye at Dian Lake.

Liu Zhizhong took a taxi to the designated location, got straight onto a helicopter, flew for an hour, crossed the national border at Changnan Autonomous State, switched to his presidential helicopter, and flew directly back to the capital, Kachin City.

Liu Zhizhong returned to the country, satisfied at heart.

Tang Zhi, however, was in deep turmoil.

How should it be said?

Although Tang Zhi couldn't host as he had to attend meetings,

it didn't mean he was unaware of what was happening at home.

His wife actually got involved with Chi Zhongshui, as shown in the footage from the monitors he installed.

Obviously, at that moment, Tang Zhi was shocked to discover that Chi Zhongshui was Liu Zhizhong, whom he failed to eliminate last time!

To Tang Zhi, this was a bolt from the blue!

Seeing Zuo Xintong entangled with Liu Zhizhong made him so angry he wanted to kill someone.

However, the broad perspective of a politician calmed him down.

He also understood that Liu Zhizhong had found out about him, but pretended not to know.

Now that he knew Liu Zhizhong was alive, he could only pretend to be unaware.

Moreover, this role of Liu Zhizhong turning into President Chi Zhongshui was truly beneficial without any harm to Tang Zhi's political career!

In terms of perspective, Tang Zhi has matured significantly.

Despite being humiliated, as Liu Zhizhong brought the disgrace to his home, Tang Zhi chose to overlook it.

However, to erase this humiliation, Tang Zhi had only one way: to climb upwards with all his might until he became the successor of Gu Changsha.

This was an incredibly idealistic aspiration, but Tang Zhi worked tirelessly in secret.

As if nothing had ever happened, anyway, he wasn't lacking women like Zuo Xintong.

On the contrary, Liu Zhizhong's illegitimate child now calling him Dad was indeed his weakness.

Damn it, this time you came back to visit women, see your son; seeing the child so adorable, you wouldn't have the heart not to care for him, would you? Hehe...

Tang Zhi's maturity in politics was quite astonishing; he could keep things under wraps.

Liu Zhizhong was using him, and he planned to use Liu Zhizhong as well; it was that simple. Everyone knew, but pretended not to; that's the realm.

And Liu Zhizhong, upon returning to Kachin City, the first thing to do was to attend a meeting at the Foreign Affairs Committee.

Of course, this meeting was about establishing diplomatic relations with a small country.

In matters like these, presidential authorization and suggestions are necessary.

One of the powers of the President of Valle is concerning foreign policies and affairs!

At the Foreign Affairs Committee, after greeting everyone, Liu Zhizhong sat down and began talking about the main agenda of this meeting.

"Ladies and gentlemen, this has been quite shocking to me and somewhat troubling! You all have heard about that small country, Beicao, right?"

Indeed, this time a delegate from that problematic little country, Beicao, was sent, using a tourist private passport, already arrived at Wale, suggesting they wish to establish diplomatic relations and engage in foreign affairs activities with Wale.

Though this envoy and entourage violated Wale's immigration policies, since they represented a nation, based on international norms, Wale did not deport them, fully displaying the demeanor of a developed country.

However, they did not receive official treatment; instead, they were just allowed to stay in a hotel, awaiting further decisions following Wale Republic's high-level meetings.

The Foreign Affairs Committee officials kept nodding repeatedly, ready to start discussing points.

The Vice-Chairman picked up a document, handed it to Liu Zhizhong, saying that it contained some collected information about Beicao from relevant departments for the President to review.

All other participants of the meeting also each had a copy and began reading.

Liu Zhizhong, who already had some prior knowledge of Beicao, found the content of these documents even more shocking and utterly disgusting.

How should it be put?

Beicao and Nan Cao share the same ethnicity, but they have chosen different paths.

To the north, poverty was rampant, people were destitute and desperate; in the south, however, it belonged to the ranks of developed countries with a very high economic level, even their football level was quite high.

In the past, the Eastern Pot's football could barely compete with Nan Cao, but now, it is far worse, deteriorating to the utmost.

Under the rule of General Gou's three generations of family in Beicao, it has traditional family-style management, akin to remnant global feudal structures.

Beicao has very cozy relations with other small garbage countries on Mei Nan Continent and tribal countries or warlord rulers on the Non-Continent.

The main reason is that Beicao can obtain some military technologies and resources from Evil Luo Country and the Great East Pot, enabling them to produce some weapons to sell to the above-mentioned countries and tribes.

The people of Beicao are truly, utterly impoverished, hardly worth mentioning. Some say they haven't even considered issues like hospitalization, housing allocation, or job seeking; they've purely been taken off by some bad seeds.

Looking at those ordinary folks so skinny, upon seeing General Gou, they are ready to cry, feeling indebted to the General's kindness forever; that tells you what kind of disgusting country it is.

The entire nation is thin, yet General Gou's family is plump and fat, enjoying exotic delicacies with nothing surprising!

A whole fleet of luxury cars for the General, right?

A private train track leads straight into the basement of the General's house.

The General's luxury items, piles upon piles of famous cigarettes and wines!

The things the General eats, oh they are the things only you wouldn't dare to imagine, things he can't do without.

For instance, you may think potato stew with beef brisket is a decent meal, right?

But General Gou eats stewed elephant brisket, hehe…

Have you tasted braised hippo lips? General Gou has!

Have you tried steamed monkey brains? General Gou eats the brains of silverback gorillas!

He even specially invited the Master of roast duck from Tiandu to make what exactly? An Australian platypus roasted for him to savor!

Such a violent warlord ruler as General Gou, with inherited luxury, is unchangeable. Precisely due to inherited ruling rights, this small broken country walks further and further away from the path of human civilization, with its people becoming more ignorant and impoverished, alas…

What's the intention behind this country wanting to establish diplomatic relations with Wale?
