Convalescent center.
Jiang Ningyue was lying under the parasol in the yard, pretending to take a nap, but in fact she had opened the system bar.

A month later, on August 16, Jiang Ningyue returned to the capital and was appointed Consul General of the Chinese Consulate General in Mandalay.
Director Qian had naturally discussed this issue with Chai Yong in advance, and Chai Yong was in a very complicated mood. He also knew that the International Development Agency couldn't keep Jiang Ningyue for too long, but this was too soon!
Jiang Ningyue was actually a little surprised. She originally thought it would be next year, but she didn't expect that they would have to set off now.
I just built my badminton court, but I haven’t played yet.
On August 20, Jiang Ningyue, Zhao Jing, Zhou Yan and Tang Lu flew to Mandalay Province in Myanmar.
Yes, Jiang Ningyue had asked Zhao Jing to come over too. When you're in a foreign country, you need someone you can trust. When Zhao Jing was at the Agency for International Development, she wasn't Jiang Ningyue's secretary, so it wasn't a violation of procedure.
Anyway, Committee Member Qian has no objection.
The consular district of the Mandalay Consulate General covers Myanmar-China, Mandalay Region, Shan State, and Kachin State. In short, it covers the most chaotic areas in Myanmar.
This time, Jiang Ningyue was very low-key in taking up her new post, but her fame could not be overstated. After she and the three people got off the plane, four staff members from the consulate general and staff from the Protocol Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Myanmar came to greet them.
At the same time, news media from various countries were on site.
After Jiang Ningyue took the bouquet, she walked outside, chatting and laughing with everyone.
Many reporters saw Jiang Ningyue coming out and immediately came over to ask questions, but they were all stopped by the guards on the scene. Despite the guards' obstruction, the group continued to shout:
"May I ask why China sent you to serve as the Consul General?"
"Did you come to Mandalay with any political purpose?"
“What do you think of the situation in northern Myanmar?”
"Can you answer our questions?"
Jiang Ningyue stopped and stood behind the guards and security guards, and said calmly:
"China and Myanmar are traditional friendly neighbors. China firmly supports Myanmar in safeguarding its independence, sovereignty, national unity and territorial integrity, adheres to non-interference in internal affairs, and upholds a peace process owned and led by the Myanmar people. China opposes chaos and war in Myanmar, opposes external forces interfering in Myanmar's internal affairs, and opposes any words or actions that attempt to drive a wedge between China and Myanmar and make groundless accusations against China."
After saying that, Jiang Ningyue waved her hand casually and left calmly.
On August 21, Jiang Ningyue submitted the appointment letter to Myanmar's Foreign Minister "Mai Sui".
Mai Sui warmly greeted Jiang Ningyue outside the hall. After entering the hall, Jiang Ningyue saw General Lai Min, the actual controller of Myanmar.
Lai Min is in his sixties, has slightly dark skin, is not tall, wears gold-rimmed glasses, and looks very energetic.
Lai Min walked over and shook hands with Jiang Ningyue with a smile, "Consul General, welcome to Myanmar."
"Thank you, General."
Jiang Ningyue smiled and shook hands with Lai Min, and they both sat down.
The accompanying consulate general staff were quite surprised. You know, when the ambassador took office, the credentials were handed over to the Myanmar Foreign Minister. The other party's generals had never shown up, but this time when Jiang Ningyue took office, the other party's generals expressed their full sincerity.
Lai Min smiled and said, "China is Myanmar's neighbor and also Myanmar's 'brother'. I have always believed that only cooperation with China can bring economic prosperity and national strength to Myanmar..."
After a round of pleasantries, Lai Min asked the reporters on the scene to leave and began to speak some of his true feelings.
Frankly speaking, Lai Min is not having an easy time. He is surrounded by enemies on all sides of Myanmar, and the armed forces opposing Lai Min's regime have exceeded 200,000.
At present, Lai Min actually controls only '58%' of the territory, which is almost the same as the United States in Afghanistan.
The most important thing is that Lai Min actually doesn’t want to fight. Once a war breaks out, the already collapsed economy will collapse even more.
Jiang Ningyue put forward her own request: "My first goal is to destroy the fraud park in Kokang."
Lai Min smiled and nodded. "I can support the legality of your actions, but as for the rest, I'm sorry I can't do anything else."
The situation in Myanmar is special. Except for the central part which is actually controlled by the Myanmar Army, the rest of the country is controlled by various autonomous states, autonomous regions and anti-government armed forces.
Although the autonomous states and autonomous regions nominally obey the orders of the Myanmar government, they will resist without hesitation once their interests are touched.
Jiang Ningyue continued, "That's enough. Your army has more important things to do. Small matters like clearing out the cyber fraud park can be handed over to armies with more time. However, the general may need to relax some restrictions."
Lai Min raised an eyebrow slightly, "We will not cooperate with the rebels."
"Certainly not the rebels."
Jiang Ningyue smiled and said, "It's the army of the autonomous state, is that okay?"
"Can."
Lai Min nodded slightly.
The "autonomous states" in Myanmar are warlords that the government cannot control. It would be great if we could drive the tiger out and devour the wolf.
Of course, there is also the possibility of raising a tiger to cause trouble.
"Can you tell me who it is?" Lai Min asked with a smile.
"Of course, after all, this is your subordinate."
Jiang Ningyue smiled and said, "Kokang is in Northern Shan State. We naturally hope to get the support of the Northern Shan Army."
"Northern Shan Army? Pashan?"
Lai Min smiled and shook his head after hearing this, saying, "That guy is a hungry wolf who will eat people without leaving any bones. He won't do such a thankless task."
"What if he wants to?"
Jiang Ningyue asked calmly, "Can the Kokang Autonomous Region be handed over to the Northern Shan Army for management?"
Lai Min frowned slightly. "The Kokang Autonomous Region has an important border crossing between our country and yours!"
"General."
Jiang Ningyue said calmly, "I don't think you're unaware that the MNDAA, Kachin State, Arakan Rakhine, and the TNLA have been eyeing Kokang and even northern Shan State covetously, right? And you're also aware that the anti-government forces within your territory are also eyeing them covetously, right?"
"Are you threatening me?" Lai Min frowned slightly.
"Of course not."
Jiang Ningyue smiled and shook her head. "I just think that human energy is limited, and so is national defense."
Lai Min also laughed. "It's harmless. If the Northern Shan Army is truly willing to cooperate with the Consul General, and if he can truly withstand the pressure from northern Myanmar, then handing over the Kokang Autonomous Region to Pashan won't matter."
Jiang Ningyue smiled and nodded, "You will definitely not regret your decision today."
"I hope so."
