Chapter 510: 347. Murder with a borrowed knife_2

This is a gain that money can’t buy.

For example:

Before the Age of Calamity, before the rise of Eastern Great Xia, which country used financial dominance to continuously collect seigniorage from over ten billion people globally?

Anyone with a bit of common sense knows that it is—the Carmenia Federation.

A certain Carmenia Treasurer once even said a very famous sentence: "The Carmenia Dollar is our currency, but it’s your problem."

When the Carmenians went crazy printing money, the whole world had to endure the pain brought by inflation.

When the Carmenians intentionally tightened the money supply, many countries experienced large outflows of foreign exchange, many enterprises went bankrupt, and society was in turmoil.

But Older didn’t mention a word.

Half an hour later.

"Bang!"

The CDD journalist heavily pressed a key on the keyboard, typing out the last character.

The manuscript was finished.

Older didn’t feel much joy from completing his work; instead, he sighed wearily.

He murmured softly: "From the current situation, I’m afraid that Eastern Great Xia replacing Carmenia to become the financial hegemon of Canglan Star is only a matter of time."

As a white-skinned person, he truly did not want to see this scene.

Older closed his laptop, stretched lazily, and slowly stood up from his chair.

He glanced at the exchange point, and noticed that more and more people were there.

But the queue instead shortened a lot because the exchange point had opened several new exchange counters.

Children appeared among the crowd.

These little ones trotted happily on the snow, laughing "giggling" from time to time.

A staff member walked out from the exchange point, seemingly holding small gifts, and shouted loudly a few times.

The children immediately rushed over and lined up in front of the staff to receive small gifts one by one.

The laughter grew louder.

The scene was extremely lively.

During the Age of Calamity, this was a sight only seen in countries where society was peaceful and resources were not scarce.

Older stared for several seconds, muttering softly: "Sh*t!"

Before he was posted to Eastern City, he hadn’t seen such a scene for a long time in the Lan shi Kingdom.

Instead, it was in Shapudian, which ordinary people perceived as poor and backward, that such a scene appeared.

At this moment.

Older suddenly saw some different figures.

Compared to the generally short Shapudian People, these figures were very tall, like adults barging into a kindergarten.

Out of a seasoned journalist’s instinct, Older quickly picked up his phone, opened the camera, and adjusted the zoom to the maximum.

He took one look and blurted out: "Lafte People!"

The main ethnic group of the Bering Kingdom is indeed the Lafte People.

Older took a few careful glances and muttered: "Why do I feel that these guys seem like superpower users?"

Bering Kingdom’s superpower users suddenly appeared on the streets of Eastern City, and he keenly sensed there might be big news in this.

Older took several "click click" photos and then contacted people from CDD: "Guys, can we use our network to find out who these faces really are?"

The other party immediately replied: "Okay!"

CDD is Lan shi Kingdom’s largest media and maintains very close relations with national institutions; finding out about someone is not difficult.

After five minutes.

The reply came: "The kingdom’s intelligence center could not find this person. We obtained intelligence from Carmenia, but only identified one target’s identity.

"This person is called Aleksey, from the northern Bering Region, superpower level quite outstanding."

An idea flashed through Older’s mind: "Could it be that the Bering Kingdom and Great Xia have reached a cooperation agreement, and the Bering people want to enter the Sea of Death Black Sand through the World Gate?"

But the next message from a colleague made him dismiss this idea.

"It is said that prior to this, various superpower user organizations of the Bering Kingdom had invited Aleksey to join, but Aleksey declined the invitation and has always stayed in the Eastern Bering Region.

"Later, when the cold wave disaster arrived, many people starved to death in the Eastern Bering Region, but the Bering Kingdom only provided minimal assistance, so relations between the two sides are not very good right now.

"Carmenians believe that Bering Kingdom may not even be aware of Aleksey coming to Eastern City."

Older listened with eyes lighting up: "Could we exploit Aleksey to stir up tensions between Great Xia and the Eastern Bering people and cause trouble for the Great Xia People?"

The colleague replied: "The Carmenians are doing exactly that."

Older immediately broke into a smile.

The two sides chatted a few more times and the conversation ended.

Older warmed to the idea: "If we can take this opportunity to spark a war between Great Xia and the Bering Kingdom, that would be great, as it would significantly slow down Great Xia’s development momentum."

However, reason told him that this possibility was not high.

Seven kilometers away.

Tusk Operations Division.

Qin Deguang sat at his desk, viewing yesterday’s intelligence brief on the computer.

Ever since joining the Eastern Bering Plan and taking on a crucial role, he received a brief loaded with extensive intelligence daily.

"Caw!"

The sound of a crow suddenly rang out.

The figure of Liu Hei swiftly emerged, appearing on a plant in the office.

Qin Deguang had long been accustomed to Liu Hei’s way of appearing and asked expectantly: "Mr. Liu, how’s it going?"

Liu Hei gently nodded his bird head: "Very smoothly, CDD’s seasoned journalist Older has already confirmed Aleksey’s identity, and the intelligence has been sent out."

Qin Deguang was somewhat incredulous: "It actually worked."

To him, using a foreign journalist with logically distant ties as a key information relay seemed like a truly fantastic idea.

Normally, no one would think along those lines.

Aleksey certainly wouldn’t have thought that it was the Great Xia People who stabbed him from behind.

And Older, who served as the relay node, would never have guessed all this was orchestrated by the Great Xia People.

This was a seamless scheme.

Unable to hold back, Qin Deguang asked: "Mr. Liu, how did you know Older could help relay the information?"

Liu Hei candidly replied: "I didn’t know."

Qin Deguang was dumbfounded.

You didn’t know and still approached Older, are you teasing me?

Liu Hei continued: "I just borrowed a little power from the master and performed a Spirit Awakening Divination. The result told me that Older could act as a go-between."

Qin Deguang was speechless, directly giving a thumbs up: "Boss, awesome!"

He then asked: "Will the people behind Older relay the intelligence to the Bering Kingdom?"

Liu Hei was very certain: "Those rogue whiteys are eager for Great Xia and the Bering Kingdom to have a conflict, so not only will they propose it, they will embellish it greatly in saying.

"From the perspective of the Bering Kingdom, if they want to negotiate with Great Xia, they must control Aleksey and extract testimony from him.

"Coupled with Aleksey’s behavior being very suspicious, the Bering Kingdom must be full of suspicion, so they will definitely deploy highly skilled personnel for capture; anyway, there’s no way he’ll escape,"

Qin Deguang smacked his lips: "I do feel that perhaps we can recruit Aleksey. If he knows the Bering Kingdom is acting against him, he might be willing to collaborate with us."

Liu Hei shook his head: "No, an Aleksey that the Bering captures or kills is more valuable than an Aleksey defecting to us."

Qin Deguang’s mind was still agile and immediately understood: "Indeed, as long as Aleksey is dealt with by the Bering Kingdom, the Eastern Bering people will definitely hate the kingdom even more."

An hour later.

Little Ivan, who was visiting a food processing plant, received the message conveyed by Qin Deguang: "Bering Kingdom will handle Aleksey."

This Tatar was startled, almost losing control of his facial expressions.

Originally, he intended for Great Xia to dispatch strong individuals to quietly eliminate Aleksey.

He never imagined the Great Xia People would have a way to borrow the knife to kill, letting the Bering Kingdom act.

Great Xia People are amazing!

Little Ivan immediately harbored a worry: "Will this matter implicate me?"

Qin Deguang’s next words dispelled Little Ivan’s doubts: "We have already arranged it, your safety will absolutely have no problems."

Only then did Little Ivan breathe a sigh of relief.
