Chapter 537 A day in the life of Governor Longmen
Ever since Xia Feng escaped from prison with Shuangxing, Wei Yanwu hadn't had a peaceful night's sleep.
First, his greatest pressure came from the Ursus military.
Froststar is an important infected terrorist in Ursus. After her arrest in Longmen, General Wameng, the commander-in-chief of the infected suppression force in the northern military region of Ursus, paid great attention to her.
Soon, Ursus reached a consensus with Longmen, and the army would take over and hand over the infected to re-offend Frost Star.
This was a big favor, and Wei Yanwu certainly would not miss this opportunity. He negotiated in person and quickly obtained benefits from Ursus.
Starting next month after the handover of Frost Star, Ursus will reduce tariffs on 16 types of goods imported and exported from Longmen, including several highly circulated goods.
This is a great thing for the development of Longmen, which can attract more foreign businessmen to settle in.
However, just the night before the escort army sent by Ursus arrived at Longmen, Shuangxing escaped from prison, and the person who helped him escape was Xia Feng.
Of course, if it was just the pressure from Ursus, Wei Yanwu wouldn't have a splitting headache.
The boundary of Longmen is not large. The city defense army immediately stepped up their vigilance when the prison break occurred. It can be said that not even a mosquito can fly out. As long as Shuangxing is still in Longmen, the Guards Bureau will catch her sooner or later.
As for Xia Feng, the Guards Bureau quickly reported the information. The reason why he was imprisoned was related to a cross-border murder incident. This incident resulted in the death of dozens of people in Lingshi Park. The murderer was from Victoria and should be Xia Feng also does not rule out the suspicion of being a well-trained killer organization from the East.
The matter is still within Wei Yanwu's control at this point. The Guards Bureau will handle the cross-border pursuit. As long as Xia Feng is caught, Shuangxing will most likely be caught, and the negotiations with Ursus can continue.
However, until the slum bombing occurred and Xia Feng was arrested for the third time, strange things happened.
First, the Rat King of the slums sent a message to Wei Yanwu, suggesting that he let Xia Feng go, and the slums would handle the rest by themselves, as they owed him a favor.
The Rat King is an old acquaintance of Wei Yanwu. The relationship between the two is not very good, but the tacit understanding between day and night has existed for many years. This is the first time that he has heard the Rat King plead for a foreigner.
Of course, even with the Rat King's reputation, Wei Yanwu would not immediately agree to release him. After all, this involved international relations with Ursus, and the Rat King did not understand politics at all.
But the day after Xia Feng was arrested, Wei Yanwu received new news.
Several major logistics companies and major financial groups in the main urban area of Longmen, including the Shihuaiya family that controlled the economic lifeline of Longmen, jointly demanded that Wei Yanwu be released, and the person these families advocated for was Xia Xia, who was no match for them. wind.
The reason turned out to be that the Snow Emperor Group in Sami suddenly stopped all drug sales to Longmen.
The suppression of mineral sickness has always been a top priority for the medical community in Longmen. At the same time, the research and development and mass production of other drugs are related to the life safety of everyone in Longmen.
No matter which country it is, medicine has always been one of the necessities in extreme shortage. Sami has several unique medicines that cannot be replaced by other drugs. The Snow Emperor Group has a monopoly on Sami’s pharmaceutical industry and is the entire The pharmaceutical king of northern Terra.
Longmen is just one of the many customers of Xuedi Group. The termination of export sales will not have any impact in the short term, but if it does not recover in the long term, it will most likely cause the medical level of Longmen to deteriorate and even cause panic among the public.
If the drug is imported from Colombia, a large country in the west, the cost will be greatly increased, and Longmen is too far away from Colombia, and international relations have always been bad, which is tantamount to handing the information into the hands of others.
Wei Yanwu had never considered that the supply of drugs, which he usually didn't care much about, would be so serious and even affect Longmen's economic development.
There was only one reason why Xuedi Group suddenly terminated the transaction, and that was Xia Feng.
Mr. Yi Xuenan, the chairman of the Xuedi Group, personally said that if the Longmen Guard Bureau does not release Xia Feng, the Xuedi Group will permanently blacklist the Longmen Special Administrative Region.
At this point, Wei Yanwu was still hesitant to threaten him with the supply of medicines. This approach was not fatal. He could still think of ways to deal with the shortage of medicines, but it would take some effort and economic losses would be inevitable.
However, on the afternoon of the second day after Xia Feng was arrested, Wei Yanwu received another piece of information that made his scalp numb.
The boss of the internationally renowned security company, Black Steel International, personally spoke.
If Longmen fails to act, Black Steel International will terminate the safety zone agreement previously signed with Longmen.
What is the safe zone protocol.
To put it bluntly, the safe zone agreement is Black Steel International's commitment to some world powers. Specifically, it will not engage in small-scale war conflicts within the country without the permission of that country.
Black Steel International is a security company on the surface, but everyone knows that it is a mercenary group and a group of real war experts.
Every country hopes that its territory will be stable. Once a war breaks out within its territory, no matter who fights with whom, it will cause great panic, even if it is just a personal grudge between some organizations.
For big countries like Colombia and Victoria, the losses are not very obvious, but for Longmen, this safe zone agreement is particularly important because Longmen's territory is too small.
Once Black Steel International cancels the safe zone agreement with Longmen, it means that once someone pays to hire Black Steel International to perform tasks in Longmen, such as assassinations, annihilation operations, kidnappings, etc., the Guards Bureau will not hesitate to do so. Coping without knowing.
A group of war experts will suddenly appear, and the streets of Longmen will be transformed into a cinematic war blockbuster with a hail of bullets. After the fight, they will get in a helicopter, pat their butts, and leave. No one can be found even if they try to look for them.
After all, Black Steel International has military bases all over the world, and mercenaries are unreasonable.
As for the reason why Heigang made this threat to Wei Yanwu, there is only one reason, and that is Xia Feng. The inaction that Heigang's big boss refers to is not releasing Xia Feng.
Things have developed to this point and are almost out of Wei Yanwu's control. However, Longmen has not been threatened since ancient times. As an excellent ruler, he is still making final decisions.
Once he releases Xia Feng, it also means giving up on capturing Shuangxing, because Xia Feng escaped from prison for Shuangxing.
Wei Yanwu thought calmly.
Release Xia Feng and give up Frost Star. Doing so will offend Ursus' military, and Longmen will gain nothing except eliminating the previous threats from Snow Emperor Group and Black Steel International.
To put it bluntly, the behavior of Snow Emperor Group and Heigang was a waste of time. Wei Yanwu needed something more substantial to help him make the decision to offend Ursus.
However, just when Wei Yanwu was thinking deeply, an international phone call helped him make up his mind.
This call came from faraway Victoria.
As a politician, Wei Yanwu got what he wanted from this phone call.
Longmen Guards Bureau, Detention Room.
For the past two days, Xia Feng stayed in the detention room like a stand-alone game player. If it weren't for the time displayed on his bracelet, he wouldn't have known what day it was.
The wounds on his body had begun to heal. Because he was too bored, Xia Feng stood in front of the door and chatted with the police officer guarding him.
"Brother, how long will I be detained?"
The constable glared at him.
"How long will you be detained? Do you know what the crime of escaping from prison is?"
"I really don't know."
"If you don't know, think about it slowly. You can stay in prison and think about this problem for the rest of your life."
Xia Feng smiled and waved his hand.
"Haha, brother, you are so good at joking. It's impossible. How can you sentence me to life? Maybe I will be released in a few days."
The young police officer looked at Xia Feng like an idiot and sneered in the same way.
"It's enough for you to be shot for this crime. I'll put my words aside. If your sentence is less than 30 years, I will eat this iron railing."
Xia Feng picked his nose.
"Hey, can you bite?"
"You don't care if I bite or not. I have been a police officer for three years. I worked in the Judicial Department before and I have never seen any criminals."
At the same time, in Wei Yanwu’s office.
He picked up a pen and wrote four big characters on the information sent by the Judicial Department.
This information is about the results of Xia Feng's processing. The four characters written by Wei Yanwu are.
