Prime Minister John paused for a moment, then helplessly reached out and shook hands with him, his heart filled with bitterness.

February 10th.
Ling Shubin, who was far away in Beijing, China, received a phone call from Lin Dong.
Lin Dong briefly explained to him the matter of reclaiming millions of cultural relics and leasing the Port of Southampton.
This left the head of China's Ministry of Foreign Affairs completely stunned, and it took him a long time to recover.
In the 1990s, China was experiencing a period of rapid economic growth, and with the strengthening of its national power, China's voice in the international community became increasingly influential.
But Ling Shubin knew in his heart that, given China's current influence, it was absolutely impossible to force an old empire to back down without any bottom line!

Ling Shubin knew that Lin Dong was incredibly strong, but he never expected that he could easily suppress a major power with only one person's strength!

"Let's not talk about that anymore. Let's talk about the Port of Southampton."
Lin Dong changed the subject.
"Alright, Boss Lin, what are your plans for Southampton Port?"
“I plan to use Longling International Holdings to handle this matter. I have already informed Ling Feifan, and he will lead his team to fly over tomorrow.”
"Can Fei Fan handle something this big?"
"No problem, it's all just business terms. Also, I'll have the Kachin Independence Army send a brigade to garrison here as soon as possible."
"No way? Boss, you're going to station troops here?"
"Is that not allowed?"
