Chapter 358 Compensation Issue

There is no secret that a dose of Veritaserum can't ask. If so, then two.

No bragging, this group of Philippine monkeys is also considered stubborn, especially Cruz, who is missing an arm, who refuses to admit his identity to the death. But under the effect of Veritaserum, willpower is useless at all.

Praise technology.

41 Philippine soldiers were captured, and 59 soldiers basically died in the crossfire. Ivan did this very carefully, not only leaving a record of the radio call, but also filming the process of the second broadcast of the warning. Later, the scene where the Philippine side took out the anti-aircraft machine gun to resist arrest was also captured by the camera installed on the helicopter.

Jiang Chen was very satisfied with Ivan's handling. What he needed was this kind of commander who could make "correct judgments" at critical moments, not a follower who would call him repeatedly to ask him for instructions on anything serious. Sinking those who ignored the warning, he had already explained to Ivan when he set up the life signal detection radar.

In short, the witness evidence is complete.

This time, Xinguo has gained a firm foothold in public opinion.

Incidents such as Philippine soldiers pretending to be fishermen have been reported by the media before, but this is the first time they pretend to be mercenaries and plan to launch military operations against other countries. What's worse, the foolish things these monkeys did were caught.

For a time, the international public opinion set off an outrageous wave. Governments of many countries, including Huaguo, have condemned the Philippine side's hooliganism, condemned this serious violation of international law, and expressed close attention to the progress of the incident.

At the beginning, President Aquino and the Philippine Foreign Minister kept making noises, saying that this was a frame-up by the new country. However, after the release of the 41 guilty confession videos, they were slapped in the face, and the 41 surviving soldiers The Philippine government was completely silent about the protests of the family members.

The evidence is all on the face, no matter how much you argue, it's useless.

According to the country's subsequent practice, they should be able to shamelessly refuse to admit their mistakes. However, Xinguo released a word at this time. If the Philippine side cannot give a satisfactory answer, it will sentence all soldiers entering the country to more than 30 years of fixed-term imprisonment.

This has forced Aquino into a dilemma.

Continue to deny it, these soldiers will definitely not be able to return to the country. The families of these soldiers will certainly not be satisfied. Acknowledge your mistake and apologize, then brazenly plead with the Xin Guo government to let him go. Aquino couldn't bear this face again.

For a while, the diplomacy between the two countries was at an impasse.

But anyone can see that in this round of confrontation, Xinguo has the upper hand.

 …

In the villa on Koro Island, Zhang Yaping and Jiang Chen sat facing each other in front of the coffee table in the living room. Aisha poured tea for the two and left the living room.

Perhaps thirsty. Zhang Yaping first picked up the teacup and took a sip, then put down the cup in a huff.

"Thank you so much. This time I have stole the limelight internationally."

"You're welcome." Ignoring his irony. Jiang Chen said unconsciously.

"No, no, please be polite. 59 people were killed at one time. If they hadn't been wronged, I might have received a subpoena from the International Court of Justice." Zhang Yaping waved his hands and declined.

"Haha, I found that you are much more humorous than before." Jiang Chen laughed.

"It's just for fun." Zhang Yaping made a helpless expression.

"Okay. Don't pretend to be pitiful with me. Just talk about it, and you will definitely benefit a lot." Jiang Chen said.

"For example?" Zhang Yaping laughed.

"At least you don't have to worry about the election." Jiang Chen leaned on the sofa and crossed his legs. He yawned and said, "Although I don't know much about politics, I've read the news for so many years. I've somehow come up with a rule."

"What rule?" Zhang Yaping teased.

“Being tough on the outside is more likely to boost domestic support than revitalizing the economy.”

"You don't need to talk about it." Zhang Yaping curled his lips. He originally thought that this guy had a different opinion, but he didn't expect to say a nonsense that everyone knew.

"Oh? It seems that I accidentally discovered an axiom of international relations?" Jiang Chen laughed triumphantly.

Let him, who was born as a mechanical student, engage in governance matters, it is still a bit embarrassing for him. To be honest, Jiang Chen hadn't thought about becoming the president himself before, but after thinking about it for a while, he still gave up on this plan.

If he is really allowed to be the president, he will always have the feeling that he will play the present world into a second apocalypse...

Or the position behind the scenes is more suitable for me.

"It's early days for the election, who can say for sure what will happen five years from now."

"Don't worry, even if you don't have enough votes, I will find a way to help you become one." Jiang Chen took a sip from his teacup and said indifferently.

Zhang Yaping's eyebrows twitched, but he didn't say anything. Although he personally disapproved of this kind of black-box operation, but after thinking that it was beneficial to him, he kept silent after some struggle.

Jiang Chen glanced at the clock in the living room, seeing that it was getting late, he said, "You came to me today just to complain about this?"

"Of course not," Zhang Yaping said, taking out a folded printing paper from his pocket. "This time, I came here mainly for compensation. A total of 976 households were affected, with a total of 2,115 people. Among them Few people have lost their only house now, and they are currently staying with relatives and friends.”

Objectively speaking, this president is indeed a good president, even if he is a puppet regime president, he is still working for the well-being of the people.

"Have 10% of the people in the country been affected? This is a big question. Let me think about it..." Jiang Chen touched his chin and began to think.

Zhang Yaping looked at Jiang Chen calmly, swallowed, and waited for his reply.

"In this way, you first sort out the detailed information of all the people who have registered to receive compensation. For families who lost their houses due to house demolition, each household will be compensated for a set of 120 square meters of real estate. If the compensation is insufficient, it will be 50 dollars per square meter. Those who plant land will be compensated at a land price of 10 US dollars per square meter, and priority will be given to work. How about such compensation conditions?"

After listening to Jiang Chen's speech, Zhang Yaping couldn't help but widen his eyes, and couldn't help reminding.

"Every household is compensated for a 120-square-meter house? What if some people originally lived in a 90-square-meter house?"

"Then they will thank me." Jiang Chen smiled.

Zhang Yaping was taken aback, he was very surprised by Jiang Chen's words.

Taking a deep breath, he thanked him sincerely.

"...well, I thank you for your generosity on behalf of the people of Singapore."

"You're welcome." Jiang Chen waved his hand and said.

The reason why he is so generous is not because Jiang Chen is some kind of philanthropist, but because he has other plans in it.

Now the population density of Panu Nine Island is extremely uneven, and the population is basically concentrated in the highly developed Koro City and Anjia City. The remaining seven inhabited islands are not small in size, but their population is extremely sparse. The population on the land of more than ten square kilometers is less than a hundred, and it is impossible to even open a supermarket, let alone revitalize the economy. This demolition also has the factor of redistribution of population density. These new houses will not be built on Koro and Anga.

As for the cost, it is actually quite large.

According to the specifications of a building with 8 floors and 8 households on each floor, it is no problem to install 64 households in each building. Even if it has 1,000 households, it only needs 16 buildings to be installed. Land prices and taxes can be ignored. The average cost of each building is only about 100,000 US dollars, and the total cost is only 1.6 million US dollars. For Jiang Chen's assets, it is simply a drop in the bucket.

And you can get a good reputation, why not do such a thing?

"By the way, when it comes to prioritizing work, does your company still have positions to arrange people?" Zhang Yaping then asked.

"When the tourist facilities are completed, it is estimated that 8,000 jobs will be created. Not to mention whether there are any jobs, I think the population of New Zealand is a bit small. Um... Speaking of this, you study the immigration bill It is time to open up the threshold for foreign immigrants." Jiang Chen said.

"The situation in Xinguo is turbulent now, I'm afraid no one will come here." Zhang Yaping said with a wry smile.

Jiang Chen smiled noncommittally.

"That's not necessarily the case. Believe me, within five years, this place will become a place that everyone yearns for, a new continent dominated by Chinese."

"I have to remind you, this is just an archipelago." Zhang Yaping couldn't help reminding.

"It's 'now' that's just an archipelago."

For these two words now, Jiang Chen bites heavily. (To be continued.) Enable new URL
