Two Realms: Don't call me evil!

Chapter 499 Blood Gold and Whitening Solution (6K)

The blood-buying operation of the JEC Group is massive, not just in the United States, but has spread all over the world.

Among the 197 countries in the world ranked by per capita monthly income, the monthly income of countries ranked outside the top 500 is already below US$.

The price that the Jeko Group offers for selling blood has increased recently, taking into account the added costs such as shipping costs. The price of one milliliter of blood fluctuates between US$1.2 and US$1.3.

If one person sells 400 milliliters of blood, that's about 500 US dollars, which is more than the monthly income of people in many countries.

Not to mention the low-income countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America, where ordinary people in many places can hardly even get enough food.

Nowadays, you can earn nearly five hundred dollars just by selling blood. That’s so exaggerated.

Of course, after layers of exploitation, most blood donors cannot get this price, and some can only get less than half of it.

Even so, many poor people still flock to it.

In countries where annual income is only a few hundred dollars, such as Liberia, nearly 1% of the population lives on the brink of poverty, the per capita GDP is only a few hundred dollars, and most citizens live on less than $ per day.

They can earn half a year's income just by donating blood once.

So when the news reached the local area, the scene was extremely scary.

There were so many poor people applying to donate blood that it looked like zombies had been released from a cage.

There are not too many poor people in this world. To earn a few hundred dollars by selling blood, the poor will rush to sign up to donate blood without any coercion, for fear that they will be left behind and not selected if they are late.

The active blood donation by a large number of people in poor areas also represents extremely lucrative profits.

In the past, it was difficult to make money from the poor, but now there is huge profit to be made just by selling blood.

Therefore, after being artificially developed by the Jeko Group, this industry is also called the blood gold industry, meaning that there is golden wealth contained in the blood.

The JECCO Group has invested hundreds of billions of dollars in this, and the amount of blood it has shed is naturally terrifyingly large.

A lot of blood was transported from all over the world to the Indochina Peninsula where the JECCO Group was located. Some of this blood came from black people in Africa, some from Latin America, and some from Europe and the United States.

Capital will flow into any industry that makes money, let alone a huge industry worth hundreds of billions of dollars a year.

With such a huge flow of funds, related upstream and downstream organizations have also emerged, including blood trafficking intermediaries, transport vehicles, smuggling channels, blood black market and so on.

In places where the power and influence of the JEC Group cannot reach, the JEC Group's own capital helps it complete the purchase and transportation of blood.

Blood development companies have been established one after another, and multinational blood companies are growing rapidly. Some countries' officials have even gotten involved in organizing the blood selling business, which saves the blood companies from constantly bribing their own officials and engaging in corruption in order to make the money themselves.

In this industry, the JEC Group has become the source of all evil.

The continuous spending of money has resulted in a huge amount of blood.

This is because the JECCO Group has limited financial resources and cannot purchase more. After all, there are nearly one billion hungry people in the world. Otherwise, the amount of blood would be even higher.

"In a country located on the sea of ​​blood, what exactly does the JECO Group want to do?"

"Slavery or charity? Tell us what you think."

"Beware of the Jeko Group using blood to create genetic viruses. Selling blood now is selling our future lives."

It is impossible for such a large-scale blood-buying operation of the Jeko Group to be concealed from the outside world, and the Jeko Group has no intention of concealing it, but announced it openly on its official website.

This approach has also sparked controversy among various media outlets, and people's views on this are extremely polarized.

On the Internet, most of the criticisms against the Jeko Group are verbal and written.

Selling blood sounds inhumane and has nothing to do with justice, and they can find a lot of evidence of crimes.

Because it involves blood, it is always associated with words like coercion, evil, bloodiness, bribery, danger, etc. There is nothing wrong with saying that this is a gray industry where violence and corruption are rampant.

But in the eyes of those poor countries and people, the JEC Group is definitely a compassionate living Buddha!
The blood purchasing initiative of the Jieke Group has improved their lives a lot. Many people have used the money from selling blood to repair their houses, send their children to school, and provide medical treatment for their elderly.

But no matter how others criticize or praise it, the JEC Group will continue to do its own thing.

It doesn't matter what the truth is; in the world of power and capital, everything is just business.

The Black Palace of the United States!
CIA Director Judith, NASA Director Burton, and the President of the United States Lawrence Fernando are having a meeting.

".This is the situation. The phenomenon of selling blood is getting worse and worse. Many investors are joining the blood money industry under the trend of profit. It has become a hot commodity in the current industry market. In the eyes of investors, it is a good deal with huge profits. The streets are full of semi-public blood transactions, and a large number of related black industries have been spawned."

Judith told the situation he knew. The recent crazy blood-buying behavior of the Jake Group had confused him as the director.

“Does the Jeko Group only buy blood in our country, or are they also doing it in other countries?”

"It happens in many countries, and the poorer the country, the more prevalent this practice of selling blood is."

Judith said that in poor countries, they could not earn as much from working for a month as from selling their blood, so it was natural for the poor to sell blood as a way to earn money.

"It seems that it is not just aimed at us."

Lawrence pondered. He was just worried that the Jake Group's purchase of blood had some conspiracy, like what the news media said about developing dangerous things like genetic weapons.

Although the United States is an immigrant country, it still has to be on guard against this since the Jeko Group's genetics and biotechnology are so famous.

"Mr. President, if we want to curb this blood gold industry, should we introduce some laws to restrict it?"

Judith suggested that this chaos needed to be stopped.

Although I don't know why the Jake Group buys blood, I just need to oppose and stop whatever the enemy wants to do.

"Of course we have to strike. Our country is not the blood warehouse of the Jacko Group."

Lawrence nodded, and then continued: "But we must restrain our attack and not hurt innocent people by mistake. Domestic capital is also in a difficult situation. We should focus our main target on the Tijuana Group."

Zhu Dean's face froze. The Jeko Group tempted them with huge profits, but was only responsible for terminal acquisitions.

Those who are truly deeply involved in the production and reselling of blood are actually capital within the United States.

For example, prisons are a severely affected area, with a large number of prisoners having their blood drawn and resold without any human rights.

If we do not target domestic capital, it will be extremely difficult to stop this chaos, and it will be impossible to effectively curb and crack down on it.

But Judith was very wise. He nodded silently and said, "I understand. I will control the degree well."

Judith herself actually knows that the United States is a capitalist country where capital is king.

Those gray forces involved in blood money have intricate ties with the upper-class capital of the United States behind the scenes.

Apart from anything else, Wall Street has developed financial derivatives that are related to blood.

When banks lend money to blood donors, the collateral is the donor's blood for the next few years or even decades. Everyone has blood, and the value of this collateral will remain extremely stable as long as the JEC Group does not stop purchasing blood.

However, most of those who come to apply for blood donation loans are from the lower class of the United States, and the instability lies with the blood donors themselves.

After all, there is an overabundance of "drugs" in the United States, and no one can guarantee that the other party will not become full of toxic blood in the future, causing the quality of blood to decline, resulting in a drop in value, or encounter various accidents, disappearance, illness, death, etc., and the loan cannot be recovered.

Considering that blood donors may run away and default, banks package the loans into debt-backed bonds in order to recover the money as quickly as possible, and then sell them to investors and other financial institutions. The participation of a large amount of hot money and capital has enabled the blood gold industry to expand rapidly.

The president is losing his position because he is delaying the capitalists from making money.

“Mr. President, the space race between the Jeko Group and us is still going on. Their Kunpeng rocket is still launching satellites, and they have also expanded their space station.

The mass of the Jeko space station has now reached two thousand tons, which is five times that of our International Space Station.

I believe we must further increase NASA funding to ensure that we can win the space race.”

Seeing that the atmosphere was a bit awkward, NASA Director Burton took the opportunity to speak, and his words and actions only conveyed one meaning: to transfer money.

"This matter will be discussed in Congress. I am only concerned about one issue now. Is the Jeko Group going to collapse? They dug the Kra Canal, competed with us in the space race, and are now buying blood from all over the world. Will they cause their own economy to collapse?"

Lawrence knocked on the table and looked at the two of them.

Burton spoke first, introducing: "Over the past year, the Jeko Group has spent at least 200 billion US dollars in the space race with us."

Zhu Dean immediately spoke up, "I have asked people to collect relevant data on the blood gold industry of the Jieke Group. Currently, the blood gold industry has blood donors covering approximately 4.5 million people. The Jieke Group's expenditure for this is at least billion US dollars a year."

Hearing this, Burton and Lawrence both looked sideways.

I know that the JEC Group is generous in spending money in the blood gold industry, but I didn't expect it to be so much money. No wonder Wall Street capitalists are crazy about it.

"That means, considering the military and other expenses of the JEC Group, they spend at least 900 billion US dollars a year. Their capital pool should be exhausted."

Lawrence narrowed his eyes. The expenditure of the JEC Group was almost catching up with the annual military expenditure of the United States, which was just over one trillion US dollars a year.

"Yes, the flagship products of the JECO Group, hair growth liquid, myopia pills and weight loss pills, have earned it a huge amount of wealth, but all added up, it is 400 to 500 billion US dollars a year. The savings accumulated by the other party in the past may be about to bottom out. We only need to pay attention to whether the JECO Group will squeeze the wealth of other countries in the Indochina Peninsula, and we can judge the internal financial situation of the JECO Group."

Judith also showed a smile on his face. The economy was not good, and the Jeko Group should either increase revenue and reduce expenditure, or stop the space race and blood purchase.

Or they could exploit several countries in Indochina. Once the JECCO Group takes such action, the CIA would immediately know that there was something wrong with the JECCO Group's financial situation.

"It's ridiculous. How can the JECO Group compete with us in terms of money? We dragged down the Red Bear Group in the past."

Burton waved his fist and laughed, saying that the Jeko Group's rule in Indochina was mainly maintained due to high welfare and force.

Without high welfare, local people will become unstable.

Without the financial resources to maintain the army, the huge army would also decay and collapse. Burton seemed to see the scene of the Jacko Group collapsing due to economic problems.

"Very good. We will continue to attract the Jacko Group to spend money and let them compete with us in the space race. Let's see who collapses first."

Lawrence nodded. This was a plan they had made before.

"So, Mr. President, are we not considering the use of force for now?"

Judith thought more. Considering the size of the Jeko Group, it would take at least a few years for it to collapse naturally. It was unknown how much harm this process would cause to the United States.

The CIA has lost too many brothers in the Jake Group. It can be said that it is the American department most persecuted by the Jake Group. He wants to see the collapse of the Jake Group as soon as possible.

“That’s after I’m re-elected.”

Lawrence pointed out Judith. Right now, the struggles among various factions in the United States are extremely fierce. Whether he can be re-elected depends on his support rate this year. If a war breaks out, he will take a huge risk. He will not seek trouble at such a critical moment.

When Judith heard Lawrence say this, he knew exactly what he meant.

If Lawrence fails to be re-elected, it will be the next president's job to deal with the Jacko Group. Whether it is war or peace, this mess will have nothing to do with him.

The three of them continued to discuss and called in a think tank to analyze and study countermeasures against the Jeko Group.

When Judith returned to her villa, it was already ten o'clock in the evening.

"Where's Paris?"

In the living room, Judith called his wife's name twice, but no one answered.

The nanny explained, "Mrs. Smith and Mrs. Catalina came over just now and invited you to attend the salon. Miss Oroda has already gone to bed because she has to go to school tomorrow."

"He plays outside all day and doesn't know how to supervise his family."

Judith complained somewhat dissatisfiedly, and just as she finished speaking, she heard footsteps coming from the entrance.

A woman in her forties walked in. She was wearing fur, with her golden hair tied up high, carrying an Hermès bag, a crystal bracelet on her wrist, and red diamond earrings sparkling under the crystal chandelier.

This is Judith’s wife Paris, she is 42 years old this year. She was a fashion model when she was young. Even though she is old now and has crow’s feet at the corners of her eyes, you can still see the beauty she had when she was young.

"What are you doing? I heard you talking about me as soon as I came back."

Paris snorted at Judith: "You are busy working all day and never at home. If I don't go out with my friends to relax, I will be bored to death at home."

"Don't play too late!"

"I'm back now, aren't I?"

Paris threw her bag on the sofa and went upstairs quickly.

Judith shook his head, knowing that he had upset his wife.

They were already an old couple, so Judy En didn't chase after her to comfort her, and just washed herself.

Half an hour later, Judith came to the master bedroom after washing up, and saw his wife in pajamas, sitting in front of the dressing table with an exquisite bottle in front of her.

Because of makeup removal, the skin condition on Paris' face looked very bad. Her skin was loose, dull, dark, and spotted, and the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes became particularly obvious.

“You bought makeup again?”

Judith walked up behind his wife.

"Nothing."

When she saw Judith, Paris made a slight covering gesture.

This abnormal behavior made Judith feel strange. Then his eyes fell on the exquisite bottle, and his eyes widened at the first sight.

Because on that bottle, there is the logo of the JEC Group printed.

"What is this? A product of the Jieke Group. Did you buy their products again?"

Judith's voice became higher because he had talked about Paris's use of diet pills in the past.

"You want to quarrel, don't you? Your father is still using the hair growth liquid from the Jieke Group, why didn't you scold him? And your mother, her figure is so out of shape, her waist is as big as a bucket, and she only lost weight after taking diet pills. Our daughter also cured her myopia by taking myopia pills! Their product is really good, so what if I use it? I'm doing this for your own good."

Paris suddenly got furious and glared at Judith angrily.

Judith's mouth twitched, and he was speechless because his whole family had used the products of the JEC Group.

"That's impossible. I'm the director of the CIA. The Jeko Group is our CIA's mortal enemy. What will happen if others find out about it?"

Judith smiled bitterly, but did not continue to blame his wife. Instead, he pointed to the cosmetics on the table.

"Is this something new from the JECO Group?"

Paris picked up the bottle on the table, her eyes sparkling with excitement.

"This is called Tianyuan Whitening Liquid, the latest cosmetic product launched by the JECO Group. It is said to solve all skin problems and make people ten times more beautiful and ten years younger. Currently, this product is still in the trial operation stage, and only a small amount of it has been released. I also asked Darlene for help in getting me a bottle. It cost me 299 million US dollars."

"How much more?"

Judy wondered if she had heard the number wrongly. She knew Darling was a very wealthy lady, and her family's company had assets worth tens of billions.

But Judith is not bad either. He has a good income of his own, plus some extra income from other channels, so his net worth is tens of millions of US dollars. This is why his wife Paris can spend 299 million US dollars to buy Tianyuan Whitening Liquid.

Paris became more and more excited as she spoke: "299 million dollars, this is not the most advanced one, the top-grade Tianyuan whitening liquid sells for 1299 million dollars, which is the one Darling uses.

Oh my god! You have no idea how exaggerated the effect is.

I saw Darling today and she looked 20 years younger. It's a pity I don't have that much money, or I would have that model too. "

Speaking of the latter part, Paris looked at Judith with some dissatisfaction, as if blaming her husband for not being able to make money.

Judith felt like his heart was about to jump out of his chest. He didn't care about his wife's little dissatisfaction, but was shocked by the expensive price of this product.

He had never heard of any cosmetics being sold for millions or even tens of millions of dollars. This was no longer just cutting leeks, this was digging out the roots of the leeks!

"Try it now and let me see the effect of this product."

Judith finally calmed down and wanted to see the effect of this product.

He didn't know whether his wife had been deceived or not. Judging from the products released by the Jeko Group in the past, he would rather his wife had been deceived.

Rather than losing millions of dollars, Judith was more worried that the Jeco Group would launch another product like the hair growth liquid. By then, the plan to bankrupt the Jeco Group would take even longer to implement.

Seeing that her husband did not blame her, Paris immediately poured out the whitening liquid in the bottle in front of the mirror, applied it evenly on her face and neck, and let it dry naturally.

Half an hour passed in this wait.

Zhu Dean paced back and forth in the room and sent a message to his subordinates in the CIA, asking them to immediately allocate forces to investigate the relevant information about Tianyuan Whitening Liquid.

When the alarm set for half an hour rang, Paris slowly peeled off the dried Tianyuan Whitening Liquid on her face under Judith's nervous gaze.

What appeared before Judith was a beautiful face with delicate, fair, and moist skin.

Suddenly, Judith seemed to have returned to the time when she first met Paris. Paris at that time was so charming and beautiful.

The next moment, Judith reacted, in disbelief, and reached out her trembling hand to touch Paris's face.

The spots, bags under the eyes, blackheads and dull skin tone on her face have all disappeared. Her skin is fair and delicate, full of collagen. Even the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes are almost invisible. She is in completely different state from half an hour ago. She looks ten years younger.

This is not a state that can be achieved with cosmetics, but the simplest, most natural and most beautiful appearance of the skin.

“Ah, my face”

Seeing her husband's mouth wide with surprise, Paris turned her head to the mirror and suddenly couldn't help but scream, holding her face with both hands, with an incredible look on her face.

"Great, Tianyuan Whitening Liquid is really great, it's worthy of being the Jieke Group, their products are as magical as always, honey, look at my face, am I much more beautiful than before."

Paris jumped up and down, hugging her husband's arm, her heart filled with irrepressible ecstasy.

The effect of Tianyuan Whitening Liquid is so amazing that Paris has never used such a magical product. She feels like she has returned to her 30s.

That woman doesn't want to stay young forever, and Paris is a model, so she cares more about her appearance.

Now I have suddenly become young and beautiful. Needless to say, I am so excited. No woman can resist this temptation.

"You are now in the same state as when I first met you."

"This $299 ​​million is really worth it, honey. I also want to buy the $1299 million model. Maybe I can go back to my or years old."

Paris put her arms around Judith's neck, licked her lips, and looked seductively, trying to lead Judith to the bed.

"Not tonight. I have to go back immediately to deal with the Tianyuan Whitening Liquid. I won't be back from overtime tonight. You should go to bed early."

Judith lost interest. Although his wife became younger and more beautiful, he cared more about his career.

After witnessing the horrific effects of Tianyuan Whitening Liquid, Judy knew that she was in trouble. Once such a product was launched, women all over the world would be crazy about it. By then, the Jeko Group would make a lot of money, and the plan to bring about the economic collapse of the Jeko Group would fail.

When Judith thought of this, he could no longer stay, so he put on his coat and left in a hurry, leaving his wife with a resentful look behind him.
