Two Realms: Don't call me evil!

With the invisible confrontation between the Jeko Group and the United States, the situation in Southeast Asia continues to heat up.

The United States has united its allies and minions, led by the Indo-Pacific Command, and mobilized a large number of warships, as if to encircle and kill the Jeko Group.

The so-called Indo-Pacific Command refers to the abbreviation of the Indian Ocean-Pacific Command, which is the largest theater command of the United States. It is centered in Okinawa, Guam and Hawaii in the country of cherry blossoms, and stretches from the country of cherry blossoms in the north to Java in the south. The United States military has deployed numerous military bases and garrisons in this region.

The 7th Fleet is stationed at Yokosuka Port, with approximately 350 fighter jets, more than 6 warships, and the flagship, the nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan. The fleet has a full staff of people.

In addition, the Indo-Pacific Command can also command the 5th Fleet and the 3rd Fleet, which have a total of four Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carriers and a combat force of more than 200 ships. This does not include the allies and brothers of the United States, but only the military power of the United States.

As time enters May, the United States is further flexing its muscles to intimidate the JEC Group.

To the west, the United States' double aircraft carrier battle group, carrying the British Empire's Queen Elizabeth aircraft carrier, entered the Arabian Sea from the Red Sea.

In the east, the USS Ronald Reagan of the United States, carrying warships from the Sakura Country and South Korea, swaggered into the eastern waters of the Jeko Group and cruised near Australia.

Two Nimitz-class aircraft carrier battle groups from the San Diego Point Loma Naval Base in the United States also sailed out of the port and headed towards the waters of Southeast Asia.

The mobilization capability of the United States is extremely strong, with five Nimitz-class aircraft carriers, as well as the British Empire's Queen Elizabeth aircraft carrier, four helicopter carriers of the Sakura Country, and two amphibious assault ships of South Korea.

The maritime and air strike power alone is enough to be daunting.

The total scale of mobilized warships, large and small, exceeds 150 ships. This is a true fleet for destroying a country, which is far beyond the reach of the Indian Navy.

That's right. The United States is still actively uniting more countries, inciting NATO member states, non-NATO member states, the Gulf Cooperation Organization and other countries and forces, and inviting them to send warships and troops.

The United States is coming with great force, and the entire Southeast Asia region is in a state of panic. The nerves of countless people are being touched, and the eyes of countless countries around the world are turned here.

The current situation is very much like a replica of the Gulf War. The United States looks serious and is ready to gather a large number of allies and younger brothers to fight against the Jacko Group.

Faced with such actions by the United States, normal people would either stop and behave themselves, or give in and give up some of their interests and choose to ease relations with the United States.

But the approach of the JEC Group is completely different.

May 5st is International Labor Day.

The Jieke Group officially launched its carefully prepared monetary system.

This currency was named Nanbi, which means the desire to dominate Southeast Asia. It is also called Dragon Coin because there is a soaring dragon pattern on the currency issued by the Jeko Group.

The entire currency has Su Jie's portrait printed on one side and a miniature map of Southeast Asia's terrain printed on the other side.

A giant dragon appeared on the miniature map, passed through the Kra Canal, the Strait of Malacca, and finally its head stretched into the Indian Ocean, while its tail disappeared, which just proved the saying that you can only see the head of a dragon but not its tail.

The Dragon Coin uses a variety of anti-counterfeiting technologies, the most talked-about of which is that if you look at the Dragon Coin under the sun or shine it under ultraviolet light, the soaring dragon on the Dragon Coin banknote will change its shape, and the phosphorus-armored dragon head will turn into limbs and round-headed tentacles, like a giant flying centipede.

People outside did not understand what this meant and just thought it was the bad taste of the Jeko Group. Many people jokingly called it Bug Coin.

After all, it is well known that the JECCO Group is a major insect breeder, and this fits their logo.

The Jeco Group officially announced Dragon Coin on May 5, and Dragon Coin began to be officially issued on the same day.

In the sphere of influence of the Jeko Group, including Zen, Siam, Annan, Lancang, and Zhenla, the dragon coins of the Jeko Group can flow freely.

After years of operation, the JECCO Group has already quietly eroded these areas into its own shape.

Several newly occupied or supported countries, including Johor, Temasek and Assam, were also forced by the Jeko Group to promote the Dragon Coin.

The Jieke Group has a mandatory rule that the basic value of the Dragon Coin is determined by the group's credit, and no one is allowed to refuse or damage it.

At the same time, all employee salaries paid by the JEC Group were uniformly changed to Dragon Coins.

The current number of employees of the Jeco Group, including those farmers who raise insects, has exceeded 10 million. For every 30 people under the Jeco Group, one works for the Jeco Group.

The salaries of employees of the JEC Group are also extremely generous, and a large amount of funds are dispersed.

Together with the companies and enterprises controlled by the Jeko Group, its influence has long penetrated into all walks of life, and the replacement and value confirmation of Dragon Coin were quickly completed.

The Jieke Group even announced that in the future, all of its products, including Tianyuan Hair Growth Liquid, Myopia Pills, Weight Loss Pills, Whitening Liquid, including food and blood, will be settled using Dragon Coins.

Once this news came out, the impact was huge.

You know, the products of the Jieke Group are sold all over the world and make a fortune every day. There are countless people who rely on this towering tree of the Jieke Group to live and make a fortune.

Slums, Haut-Katanga Province, Republic of the Congo.

As a populous country in Africa, Congo has a population of over 1.5 million, million hectares of arable land, and abundant mineral resources of all kinds. If fully utilized, the country can solve the food shortage problem and develop into an industrial country.

But today, Congo, like many African countries, is still plagued by poverty, war, disease and corruption, which are like cancer that penetrates deep into the bone marrow and cannot be cured.

The slums are located on both sides of a river. Houses are built on continuous rafts. The sewage and various garbage from human factories have long turned the river water into a turbid black and purple color, emitting a foul odor.

As the sun sets, a large number of poor people are cooking, washing clothes, and children are jumping into the river, laughing and playing.

Suddenly, a fleet of boats slowly entered the slum area from the river entrance.

The fleet was quite large, and there were people carrying AK rifles. They were a small gang nearby.

"Collect the blood, collect the blood."

"If you want to sell blood, please come quickly. We will not wait any longer."

"Don't take the poisonous and diseased ones. Don't waste my time. Hurry up."

On the fleet, the gang leader held a loudspeaker and warned the poor people on both sides of the strait.

The entire slum was in an uproar, with countless men, women, old and young rushing to row their boats closer to the fleet, blocking the river.

"I want to sell my blood. My blood is very clean."

"Choose me, choose me. This is my test report. There is nothing wrong with my blood." "Boss, I want to donate blood. I have plenty of blood. I am not afraid of having it drawn."

The poor people kept raising their hands, and everyone's face was filled with excitement.

It was clearly selling blood, but they did not look disgusted at all. Instead, they were all extremely excited.

"Let me line up one by one."

Under the gangsters' arrangement, medical staff came out of the fleet and drew blood on the spot.

The average amount of blood drawn from each person is 700 to 800 milliliters, far exceeding the routine blood draw of 400 milliliters.

After everyone has their blood drawn, they will line up on the other side and wait for the gangsters to give them money.

Because every time they sold blood, they could receive a bill worth 50 US dollars from the gangsters, and this was their happiest day.

Most of them only earn 1 to 50 US dollars a month, and the average daily consumption level is less than US dollar. These US dollars are undoubtedly a huge fortune for them.

Even though many people had too much blood drawn and felt some discomfort in their bodies and turned pale, they didn't care. Poverty is more terrifying than a little physical discomfort.

The average life expectancy of many of them is not even past fifty years old. Selling too much blood will damage the essence of their body, so they have to live to that age.

But these poor people don't know that if their blood is transported to the territory of the Jeko Group, the selling price can reach 1-1.2 US dollars per milliliter, which is twenty times the money they get from selling their blood.

As the most exploited link in the blood money supply chain, in populous and poor countries like Congo, selling blood has become a hope for many people to get rich.

These poor people don't care whether they are being exploited or not. Selling blood is their only way to gain a lot of wealth in a short period of time. Everyone is eagerly waiting for the gangs to give them dollars.

This was true in the past, but things are different today.

"what is this?"

When the gang started distributing money, the poor people who sold their blood opened their eyes wide, looking at the unfamiliar banknotes with a giant dragon printed on them in their hands, their faces filled with confusion.

"Money, money."

The gang leader answered the question while crossing his legs and smoking a cigarette.

"What kind of money is this? I don't know what it is. I don't want it. I want US dollars. I want those green dollars."

"Which country's banknote is this? This is the first time I've seen it. I can't buy anything with it. I don't want this. Change it to US dollars for me."

"How can you gangsters bully people like this? Who will sell blood to you in the future?"

The poor people became anxious and waved the banknotes in their hands. They felt that they had been greatly cheated and their anger began to grow.

The gang members became nervous and pointed their guns at the crowd.

Seeing that something was not right, the gang leader stood up and explained, "This is the money of the Jieke Group. You all know the Jieke Group, the company that bought your blood. The currency they have just discovered is called Dragon Coin.

The dragon coins in your hands are worth the same as 50 US dollars. Who says you can't buy things? We have brought food here and you can buy it now.

Furthermore, when you go to the big cities outside, you will find that dragon coins have long been in circulation there, and many businesses will accept them, which are very useful.”

Faced with the gang leader's words, the poor people were skeptical.

"I went to Darmstadt last month and I think I did see some people using this currency."

Some poor people stood up and said that the dragon coins in their hands were valuable.

"I've also seen that many businesses are accepting this currency."

"I'm not lying, it's true, this currency can be spent."

Several voices were heard in the crowd. They had been to big cities, where people were also selling blood. Dragon Coins were more common in cities, but the slums were relatively backward and were only beginning to become popular.

What really reassured the poor was that the gang leader found a grain ship and ordered the gang members to carry bags of flour and rice to exchange for the poor on the spot.

The gangs also understand the principle of slow and steady growth. These poor people are wealth. If they are provoked into rebellion, there will be no more blood to buy in the future.

When the poor people at the scene saw the food, they immediately calmed down and ran over to exchange it with the dragon coins in their hands. The amount of food they exchanged was basically the same as what they usually bought with 50 US dollars.

One-third of the population of Congo is malnourished. Hunger and poverty are linked. Food is the absolute hard currency of this country. The dragon coins that can be exchanged for food immediately increase the trust of these poor people.

After getting the food, the poor people went home contentedly and prepared to have a big meal.

As the poor people left, the gang leader returned to the base camp with his fleet, and then immediately delivered the strictly preserved blood to a larger city, handed it over to his superiors, and then took care of some local officials, thus completing the transaction.

The gang leader himself is just a middleman in the blood gold industry. He certainly earns more than the poor, but he cannot make the biggest profit.

For example, the blood he handed over would first go to the city and be handed over to larger gangs.

And his superiors have superiors, and his superiors have even superiors above him, and eventually the blood will be trafficked to a large multinational blood company in Congo.

The company had shareholders including warlords, high-ranking officials, and foreign capitalists, a level of wealth that he could not have imagined.

Only these well-connected multinational blood companies can transport blood out of the Congo, manage various networks along the way, and safely deliver the blood to the territory of the Jeko Group, earning the most lucrative profits in the blood gold industry.

Because of the rigid regulations of the JEC Group, the company's core products only support Dragon Coin transactions. These multinational blood companies reserve and purchase large quantities of Dragon Yuan. When they sell blood, the JEC Group also delivers Dragon Coins to them.

However, these multinational blood companies are not worried that the dragon coins they received are just waste paper. They can use dragon coins to purchase whitening liquid and other products from the Jeko Group. These products are in great demand in countries all over the world. As long as they have the products in hand, they will not have to worry about selling them. After selling them, they can be exchanged for currencies of various countries, including international currencies such as the US dollar.

Through this relationship, they can also become the lower-level product distributors of the JEC Group and earn an extra layer of profit, so they are more active in buying up Dragon Coins.

Originally, the exchange rate between Dragon Coin and the US dollar was 5:1, but due to the scarcity and importance of Dragon Coin itself, the exchange rate between Dragon Coin and the US dollar has been inverted on the black market.

The exchange rate of Dragon Coins continued to appreciate, and the number of dollars that Dragon Coins could exchange for became 4 Dragon Coins for 1 US dollar, and even 3.5 Dragon Coins, and 3 Dragon Coins for 1 US dollar. (End of this chapter)
