Chapter 133: Various Parties Make Their Moves

  It was still Shi Jinping, the Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs, who made the call. As soon as the phone connected, Shi Jinping complained, "I'm telling you, Secretary Han, can't Jiangzhou be more low-key? Just a few days ago, the Song Group from the US called to question us, and now Tokyo is calling again, saying that Nangong Xiong, the chairman of the Far Ocean Group, was refused treatment by doctors in Zhongjiang. When did Zhongjiang start being so hostile towards Japan?"

  "I already knew about this, the doctor isn't from a certain hospital in Zhongjiang, but has his own small clinic. Director Shi, it's not against the law to choose who to treat and who not to treat, is it?" Han Guanglin asked with a smile.

  "Secretary Han, you can still smile at this time. Nangong Xiong is a big financial group in Tokyo and can influence Japan's politics. How can this matter be taken lightly? Even if it's not an internal doctor, we should consider the overall situation." Shi Jinping cried continuously, he understood that Han Guanglin still meant to cover up.

  "Minister Shi, please don't bring up the phrase 'considering the bigger picture' again. He's just a small doctor, his political awareness isn't that high, and he remains unmoved by Far Ocean Group's one billion dollars. What can I do with this kind of person? Arrest him? This will surely incite public outrage." said Han Guanglin.

  "Ten billion dollars!" Shi Jinping took a deep breath: "Secretary Han, you're not kidding, are you? This doctor is from Mars and doesn't like US dollars or what?"

  "You ask me, I ask who to go, 10 billion US dollars, I'm tempted too. Our Jiangzhou is currently short of money." Han Guanglin now doesn't have the demeanor of a provincial party committee number one, but has become an expert at evading responsibility.

  "Secretary Han, I'm being serious about this. The Tokyo side has a very tough attitude, saying that we China are engaging in racial discrimination and are going to protest to the Federation." Shi Jinping reminded.

  "Director Shi, I am powerless in this matter. Although this doctor has not been in Zhongjiang for a long time, his reputation is not small. He has even established a rule of 'three no treatments': he does not treat the rich and ruthless, those who are guilty of heinous crimes, or Japanese people. Not long ago, when Hua Chaoyang was hospitalized, he was also refused treatment by this doctor. I had to intervene on his behalf. This is something that I am unable to get involved in." said Han Guanglin.

  "Is there such a doctor?" Shi Jinping was somewhat incredulous: "I still know Hua Lao, he has great influence in Jiangzhou, how could he refuse to treat him?"

  "It's not like I have a choice, so in this matter, I'm also very passive. What can I do? If we catch him because of this, the surrounding crowd will riot, and he is very popular among the local people." Han Guanglin said with a bitter smile.

  "Hmm, Secretary Han, just tell me straightforwardly, is this doctor the same one who had a conflict with the Song family last time?" Shi Jinping asked directly to the point.

  Last time the US protested, Han Guanglin's attitude was firm, and this time it is still the same. Shi Jinping is somewhat skeptical, wondering if Jiangzhou really has a lot of talented people.

  "It's still the same person, there's nothing I can do about it on this end." Han Guanglin said...

  "Alright, I understand." Shi Jinping responded with a sentence and hung up the phone in frustration. If it were still the same person as last time, he would have to be more cautious this time around.

  After the US Consulate General called their Ministry of Foreign Affairs last time, Song's family also called the United Front Work Department. It is said that the chief who did not ask about worldly affairs even made a rare phone call to the United Front Work Department. The implication is very clear, and there must be some relationship between the parties involved and the old chief.

  "Xiao Shi, what's the situation with Jiangzhou? Tokyo has already called three times in a row." Just as Shi Jinping was frowning, a man in his 50s walked in, looking serious. It was none other than Foreign Minister Jiao Yusheng.

  "Secretary Han said he was powerless." Shi Jinping sighed and said, "The Japanese side has a tough attitude, and Jiangzhou also says they are powerless. This kind of thing is really rare, their foreign ministry rarely encounters such situations."

  "What's going on? Secretary Han says he can't do anything, what is he trying to do? Is the whole Jiangzhou planning to go to war with Japan?" Jiao Yu-sheng asked in a rage, his face turning iron-blue.

  "Secretary Han said that the other party was just a small doctor who opened a clinic, and he had a high reputation among the people in the nearby area. He couldn't take any measures to refuse to treat Japanese people," Shi Jinping said.

  "Nonsense, a small doctor has such a big nerve, Han Guanglin can't even show his face, I must report this to the higher-ups, it's intolerable. Jiao Yusheng angrily said: 'Our Ministry of Foreign Affairs is now wiping the butt of Jiangzhou Province, and now it's become our problem.'"

  "Director Jiao, this matter still needs to be discussed. This doctor is indeed not simple. The last time it was the Song family's affair that he stirred up." Shi Jinping hastily said, and he didn't dare to conceal this point.

  "What did you say?" Jiao Yusheng was stunned for a moment, and suddenly understood the reason. The last time the Song family's affair was handled by Shi Jinping, but Jiao Yusheng also knew about it.

  "It's not bad, if the other party really has a relationship with someone, and we take measures rashly, wouldn't it be too reckless?" Shi Jinping said.

  "I know, you go investigate the details of this matter immediately and send me that doctor's information as soon as possible." Jiao Yusheng hesitated for a moment before stepping out of Shi Jinping's office.

  The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is busy investigating Wang Xu's background, while Shen Fei, who is far away in Jiangzhong, has also learned about the events that took place at Fusheng Hall this morning. They played at Yue Shang Yao until late last night and didn't get up until 11 o'clock this morning.

  Luo Chenghai and Lei Peng accompanied them in hospitality. It's not easy for these people to come once, so they naturally want to entertain them well as the young masters of Zhongjiang.

  When having lunch together, Luo Chenghai naturally couldn't help but mention the incident that happened at Fusheng Hall, which was even more shocking than when Wang Xu locked Zhang Qingyun in Fusheng Hall last time.

  " Luo Shao, you're not bragging, are you? Ten billion US dollars, Doctor Wang directly refused?" Jiang Tao was somewhat skeptical: "If it were a hundred million RMB, I might believe it."

  "It was indeed one billion US dollars, and at that time, Yao Qingping of the Yao family was also present. It is said that Doctor Wang treated Yao Qingping's wife, Jin Ping, for her illness, and the Yao family gave up 10% of the shares of Yao Pharmaceutical Factory. Although Yao Pharmaceutical Factory is currently losing money, this 10% stake is worth at least 300 million." Luo Chenghai explained.

  "Good grief, Doctor Wang, this is just too...too..." Lepeng was stunned for half a day and couldn't find the right words to describe it. This matter was simply shocking.

  They are all young masters from Jiangzhou, calling each other "little this" and "little that", but I'm afraid only Qiao Bin Kai can take out 10 billion US dollars. And if he takes out this money, the Qiao family is basically finished.

  "How is this possible?" Tang Yaoguang curled his lip in disbelief: "Is there still such a person in this world, 10 billion US dollars, not just 10 RMB, and yet he refused, did the mother of that Dr. Wang get raped by Japanese people."

  "Tang Yaoguang, watch your tone, or I'll slap you in the mouth!" Shen Fei, who had been listening to the commotion on the side, suddenly became furious, stood up abruptly, pointed at Tang Yaoguang with his hand, and shot a cold glare from his eyes.

  Wang Xu's old mother is Shen Fei's own aunt, and Tang Yaoguang's words just now naturally made Shen Fei furious. You're paralyzed, your mom was raped by the Japanese.

  Seeing the cold light in Shen Fei's eyes, Tang Yao Guang suddenly couldn't help but shiver. Although his status was not low, in front of Shen Fei, he was absolutely just a follower, unless that person from the Shen family had left, otherwise, he would never have the capital to show off in front of Shen Fei.

  "Shen Shao, what's going on? Tang Shao was just joking, and Doctor Wang isn't even here." Geng Le hurriedly mediated, unable to understand why Shen Fei was so angry. After all, Shen Fei had gotten along well with Wang Xu last night, and shouldn't be reacting like this over a single sentence from Tang Yao Guang. The three of them were all from the capital, after all.

  "Ah, come on, Shen Shao, I was just joking, didn't mean anything else. What's with this?" Tang Yaoguang hastily put on a smiling face, but Shen Fei pointing at him in front of these Jiangzhou rich kids made him lose face. If not for considering Shen Fei's background, Tang Yaoguang would have turned hostile by now.

  "Some jokes can be made, some jokes should not be made. Watch your mouth and don't bring disaster to your family." Shen Fei let out a cold hum and turned around to walk out of the dining room.

  "Shen Shao, this is..." Luo Chenghai and several others were also left at a loss by Chen Fei's sudden outburst of anger. Although Tang Yao's words earlier were indeed not pleasant to hear, and hurtful behind people's backs, after all, it was just a joke on the wine table. Even if they had a good relationship with Wang Xu, there was no need to pursue this matter over just one sentence.

  Several people in the private room speculated about Bu Ti Cheng Hai. After Shen Fei left the private room, he hesitated for a moment before calling his father, Shen Zhi Hong.

  Shen Zhihong was also having dinner when he received Shen Fei's phone call and asked with a smile: "Xiao Fei, have you seen your cousin?"

  "I've seen him, this cousin of mine is really something, even I have to admire him. As soon as I arrived in Zhongjiang, he's already made a big splash today."

  "What's the big deal? Tell me about it." Shen Zhihong asked with a smile, knowing that Chen Fei wouldn't call at this time without a reason.

  "Last night, the chairman of Japan's Far East Group, Nangong Xiong, was critically ill. This morning, the Far East Group offered a price of 10 billion US dollars to invite Xiaohui to sell out. Guess what?" Shen Fei asked.

  "Still making eyes at your dad, just say the result." Shen Zhihong didn't have the mood to guess, and asked directly.

  "Xiao Xu directly refused and didn't even frown, I suppose the Ministry of Foreign Affairs must have received a call from Japan by now." Shen Fei sighed.

  "Refused!" Shen Zhihong was taken aback, although when Shen Fei asked him to guess, he had already guessed that Wang Xu wouldn't have agreed happily, but he didn't expect Wang Xu to directly refuse.

  "Not bad, this younger cousin of mine is really making me feel inferior." Shen Fei said with a smile.

  "Great, you're responsible and have the courage to take charge. You're a worthy grandson of our Shen family. Your grandfather would be proud if he knew about this. As for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, don't worry about it." Shen Zhihong said with a hearty smile.

  "I see, I just heard the news at the dinner table too, unfortunately I wasn't there at the time. He has no idea that I'm his cousin." Shen Fei said with a smile.

  "Ah!" Shen Fei was standing on one side and talking to Shen Zhihong when Geng Le received a call, walked out to answer it, and as soon as he stepped out of the door, he heard Shen Fei whispering into his phone. After listening for a few sentences, Geng Le suddenly forgot that his own phone was still connected, and stood there in a daze, even dropping his phone to the ground without noticing.

  "No wonder, it turns out that Wang Xu is the grandson of the Shen family, Shen Fei's cousin, Tang Yaoguang said that his aunt was raped by Japanese people, no wonder Shen Fei didn't rush to rescue her."
