Chapter 686 Upheaval in the Middle East (2)
Ling couldn't help but glared at Lin Ran and said, "Don't make trouble first. Listen to the Prime Minister, it will be even more surprising to you!"
Seeing everyone focusing their attention on themselves again, the Prime Minister continued: "What you would never have imagined is that the root cause of the great turmoil in the Arab world this time was because of our China! No, to be precise, it was because of a Chinese grain transport fleet!"
When Li Xiaogang heard the Prime Minister talking about the Iranian and Iranian alliance, he suddenly remembered that this matter was probably related to him.
When the Prime Minister talked about the grain transport fleet, Li Xiaogang was finally confirmed and stood up from the chair with a blink of an eye.
I hurriedly took out my phone from my pocket, and then I realized that when the phone was running out of power, it turned off automatically!
Seeing Li Xiaogang's nervous look, everyone was stunned. Lin Ran asked in confusion: "Xiaogang, what's wrong with you?"
Li Xiaogang shook his head and said, "I...I'll go and make a call first and come back soon!"
After saying that, he pulled open the chair and left hurriedly. Seeing Li Xiaogang's hurrying look, Lin Ran and others were filled with endless curiosity. Gao Liguo looked at Gao Yuanyuan who was thinking, and asked in confusion: "Gao Yuanyuan, what's wrong with Xiaogang? I seem to be uncomfortable..."
Gao Yuanyuan bit her lip and simply told the truth: "Aren't you talking about the grain transport fleet that caused a major change in the Arab situation? In fact, that fleet belongs to him!"
"Ah!? Why is this so?" Gao Liguo was stunned when he heard this. Lin Ran slapped his forehead and said, "I'm really stupid. Why didn't I expect that Yi Guo is now Xiaogang's base. Now that there is such a big noise, how could it have nothing to do with him?" The leader and the Prime Minister also looked at each other, with a little bit of surprise in their eyes.
Gao Liguo was not sensitive to other things. What he was really sensitive to was food. He asked with a tweet, "Where did this kid get such a batch of food?"
Gao Liguo immediately reminded the Prime Minister, and the leader said loudly: "Yes! I heard that the fleet consists of hundreds or thousands of ships, each full of food. I'm afraid there is a prefecture-level city in a major grain-producing province that has so much food reserved. Where did he get it?"
Seeing that the eyes of several people were all focused on him, Gao Yuanyuan said embarrassedly: "Actually, I had already returned to China a few days ago. I came back with the Lightning ship. I went directly to S City in Province X. Li Xiaogang was purchasing grain there, and the food on the ship came from there. The sky thorn was led by Lightning himself to escort it. It was originally to prevent pirates, but unexpectedly something like this happened."
"What!? This Xiaogang is too unfavorable. He didn't even come to buy food first. At least it is his hometown! And this guy from Qionglai is so brave. He secretly sold out all the food in his province and didn't report it. It's outrageous!"
Gao Liguo was a little angry when he heard this and accused Li Xiaogang and Qionglai of coming.
Gao Yuanyuan couldn't help but argue for Li Xiaogang: "Dad, at that time, Li Xiaogang didn't know that S Province was also facing the problem of not being able to sell grain. I think if he knew, he would definitely not leave it alone!"
Gao Liguo snorted and said, "Now he just wants to ignore it! In short, the food in the whole country belongs to him. Anyway, he has a big family and can afford to pay even if he pays it. He just sacrificed his life for the farmers across the country!"
Listening to Gao Liguo's almost unreasonable roar, Gao Yuanyuan was really amused and worried about Li Xiaogang.
Hearing that this was related to Li Xiaogang, Prime Minister Linghe miraculously calmed down, and even had the leisure to drink with Lin Ran and changed his family affairs.
Gao Liguo felt a little embarrassed for his son-in-law, and stared at the three of them and said, "Hey, the Prime Minister wants the old man. Isn't you too unkind to do this? Are you helping Xiaogang come up with ideas? Are you really going to let him take it by yourself?"
Ling smacked her lips and said, "You have known Xiaogang for so long. I ask you, what's wrong with him? He can't bear it? Even if we want to intervene, they might even blame us for helping us!"
Gao Liguo was quite amused and laughed when he heard what he said, and he started drinking alone.
Li Xiaogang walked to the inner room alone and couldn't wait to dial the phone number of Lightning. The phone was connected. When it was Li Xiaogang, Lightning excitedly said: "Brother Gang, I finally contacted you!"
Brother Gang said embarrassedly: "The phone is out of power and turns off! But, how could this happen? How could it cause such a big storm?"
Lightning said bitterly: "Along the way back, I didn't encounter pirates, but I encountered heavy fog and wind and waves. The fleet lost its direction and broke into the Mediterranean.
It was nothing at first, but I didn't expect that Turkey, Syria, Israel, and Kuwait were now extremely short of food. When the local government saw that our ship was loaded with food and said that we would not let go, we were detained here.
I tried to pass the news to the two countries of Iran and Iran. The two countries responded immediately and joined forces to put pressure on the governments of the eight countries. But I knew that it would be fine if I didn’t put pressure on it. The pressure actually crushed the eight countries into a group and jointly fought against the alliance between Iran and Iran!”
Li Xiaogang nodded and asked, "What about the situation now? Are you injured, brothers?"
Lightning replied: "No one was injured, but now the Eight-National Combined Fleet has surrounded us. It is possible for us to rush out one of our ships, but it is almost impossible to take the fleet with us!"
Li Xiaogang pondered for a moment and said, "Lightning, don't worry, please comfort everyone, don't be impatient! Just treat it as a vacation, and I will find a way to solve this problem!"
Lightning sighed and said, "If you want to blame, we can only blame us for not having the power at sea, otherwise we would have had sex with them a long time ago, and we wouldn't have to be so angry!"
Li Xiaogang said lightly: "Don't worry, there will be something one day! I'll die first, please wait with peace of mind!"
After finishing the call with Lightning, Li Xiaogang returned to the dining table with a serious expression.
Lin Ran asked with his eyes slanted, "How is it? Is the situation serious?"
Li Xiaogang frowned and said, "Now, they are relatively calm in several aspects, and there is no major problem for the time being! But I don't understand, what does this have to do with robbery?"
The leader smiled bitterly and said, "Stately speaking, it cannot be said that they were robbing. It was your ship that entered the territorial waters of the country first. It was understandable that people detained you completely to maintain the sacred territory from being violated."
"But their real purpose is not to safeguard territorial sovereignty, but to the food on my ship! This is clearly a robbery, it is really outrageous!" Li Xiaogang said angrily.
"For your food? Who did you hear? This is inconsistent with the statements made by the governments of the eight countries on appearance." The leader asked in confusion.
Li Xiaogang snorted coldly and said, "Of course they have to find some high-sounding reasons for themselves. These guys want to be **** and establish a chastity archway. They are all a group of bastards!"
"Then according to you, these countries are also in a hurry to lack food? Otherwise, they would not have done such a thing." Gao Liguo said thoughtfully.
Li Xiaogang nodded and said slowly: "Most of these countries are coastal, with relatively rich economies. The food problem is not as prominent as those from Iran and Iran, but it also exists. In the current situation of increasing food shortage, a large number of grain ships suddenly came to the door. If they are not moved, they will be seeing a ghost!"
The Prime Minister nodded heavily and said, "It makes sense! No wonder the Congress did not hesitate to end the alliance with the other seven hostile countries. Compared to solving the imminent food crisis, cooperation with the enemy is not a big deal. If it were us, I believe we would do this without hesitation! Xiaogang, what are you going to do? Yiguo has done this step, and you should see his determination. It seems that they must leave the food."
Li Xiaogang sneered and said, "It's not that easy to make me surrender! Things are still going on now, so I want to see what the Eight Coast Congresses do!"
The Prime Minister frowned and said solemnly: "Xiaogang, I know you must have your own ideas, but I still can't help but remind you that you must grasp this standard well. Unlike the country of Iraq, it has a strong economy and strong military power. The entire Arab world fought four battles with him and lost four times. Not only did it fail to curb others, but it also made the country of Israel grow year by year. The Jewish nation is indeed a very excellent nation. You must not underestimate them!"
Li Xiaogang nodded and said, "I understand what you said, I will handle it properly!"
The leader took over the conversation and said, "Xiaogang, no matter what, it is the fleet of China. Even if the reason is sufficient, it cannot be dismissed. I will immediately order someone to send a note to the government of China. Everyone sit down and talk about this matter together! Even if the negotiations cannot be reached, I believe that the government of China will not dare to easily act against your fleet!"
Li Xiaogang hurriedly said, "It would be great that the Chinese government put pressure on the government of the Israeli government. As long as I can buy more time, I will be more confident! However, I have a suggestion that while putting pressure on the governments of the Israeli government and other eight countries, we can launch a large-scale grain purchase nationwide.
Since the Eight Kingdoms and other countries are for food, it is unfair to not give them food in the end. We must explode the food crisis in the Middle East, and make the governments of the Eight Kingdoms go all out and take advantage of the fleet to prepare enough food! Transport it as soon as possible!"
Gao Liguo slapped the table and said, "If this is the case, that would be great! Chairman, Prime Minister, the food problem that caused us a headache can be completely solved now!"
