Afterwards, after learning the news from the United States, Zhang Yifeng knew how unnecessary it was for Jiang Qingyan to be angry, Baiheng Group had indeed contacted Bear Stearns, but unfortunately people thought that it was the fifth largest investment bank in the United States, and the collapse of the two funds was nothing, and sooner or later they could get up, and they also rejected Baiheng's acquisition plan.

However, the subprime mortgage crisis is still spreading, and it is still unclear whether Bear Stearns will be able to hold on.

The sun in the Kingdom of PNG is still so bright, the hot sun bakes the earth, the sunlight fills the space, and the scenery seen by the eyes is like a picture with the brightness adjusted, pale and terrible.

"It's another good day."

Walking out of the Yan Palace, Zhang Yifeng stretched his waist in the face of the hot sun.

At that moment, there was the sound of footsteps.

"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Croft asks to see you." Dark Blood in the uniform of the black palace guards, heroic posture, cold face, thin shoulders on the golden rank of captain shining in the sun.

I have to say that the dark blood rose that came out of the darkness is very beautiful.

"Croft hasn't been to the palace for a long time, so there must be something important coming to me this time, right?" Zhang Yifeng muttered to himself as he walked.

Dark Blood followed behind him and shook his head slightly: "Chancellor Croft didn't say anything. ”

This is the difference between Susan and Dark Blood, and it is also the difference between intelligent robots and humans, Susan will only stubbornly carry out Zhang Yifeng's orders, Zhang Yifeng doesn't ask, she won't answer, and Dark Blood is different, she will automatically judge Zhang Yifeng's tone and respond in a timely manner, in this regard, there is still a big gap between robots and humans.

Arriving at the Rainbow Palace, Croft stood up and saluted.

I haven't seen Croft for nearly two months since the cabinet work report meeting on January 15 this year, Zhang Yifeng found that he is aging very seriously, Western men and women are very handsome, angular, and delicate like angels when they are young, but when they start a family, they will age quickly after the age of thirty, and Croft can't break this curse.

Two years ago, Croft stood on his side under the coercion of Zhang Yifeng, from the unknown governor of the island country to the prime minister of the axe who became the overlord of the South Pacific.

From the beginning of relying on Zhang Yifeng everywhere, to now being able to independently preside over the work of the axe, this is a huge change and growth, but in the process of growing up, Croft has always remained sober and knows who the master of this country is, and has never interfered too much in areas other than the work of the axe, nor has he challenged Zhang Yifeng's authority, which is his smart side.

"Mr. Prime Minister, your complexion is not very good, this is not the state that Prime Minister Zhengaxe should be, I will ask Susan to send you Life No. 1 in a while." Zhang Yifeng said with concern.

Croft's face was full of gratitude, "Thank you for your concern. ”

How much is the value of Life No. 1, Croft knows better than anyone that at the first auction of 06 held in January this year, the price of Life No. 1 set a new record, reaching a sky-high price of 200 million gold per piece, and it is no exaggeration to say that Zhang Yifeng gave Life No. 1 money to others for nothing, and it is a lot of money.

The Kingdom of PNG does not prohibit officials from giving gifts to each other, and it is not forbidden to exchange favors, so it is better to put it on the table, and everyone will give it openly, but in order to curb the deterioration of the custom of gift-giving, the Kingdom law stipulates that officials cannot give gifts between themselves, and cannot give cash, luxury goods, and things of high value, and the total value of gifts in the month shall not exceed one-sixth of the monthly salary.

The monthly salary of public officials with the lowest administrative rank reaches 600 gold, and the monthly gift giving expenditure cannot exceed 100 gold, and both parties must also file with the Anti-Corruption Bureau, as long as one party registers the type of gift, the value does not match, the Anti-Corruption Bureau will treat the gift-giving behavior as bribery and bribery to intervene in the investigation, as long as it is verified, the official's political career will basically come to an end.

A long prison life awaits them.

If the circumstances are serious, the death penalty will be carried out.

Zhang Yifeng gave Croft Life No. 1, the value of which has far exceeded the amount stipulated in the Public Officials Law, but Croft can accept it with peace of mind, does it mean that Croft does not understand the law?

Of course not, the king gives gifts to officials, which is an honor and is not included in the scope of the Public Officials Law, not to mention, with Zhang Yifeng's current status and power, does he still need to bribe subordinate officials?

No one believed it.

"Your Majesty, what should be done with the 3 million square kilometers of Odalia?" Croft thanked him and got down to business.

Hearing his words, Zhang Yifeng was stunned, and patted his head reluctantly, during this time, he was too concerned about the subprime mortgage crisis in the United States, and he actually put the matter of Odalia behind him, and the armistice agreement stipulated that the territory occupied by the kingdom was temporarily managed by the kingdom, in fact, everyone knew that these territories were ceded to the Kingdom of Papua New Guinea, and Khozia said escrow for the sake of looking good.

In this regard, Zhang Yifeng gave Hozia a lot of face, tacitly acquiesced in the agreement, the occupation area continued to increase troops, and there was no clear statement on the nature of these territories, but the super energy group industry continued to transfer to the occupied area, wantonly plundered mining resources, established pastures, and claimed that the three million square kilometers of land in the foreign PNG Kingdom was still the original name of Odalia.

Theodalia, the Northern Territory as well as being Queensland.

However, in fact, the kingdom has long regarded the three places as its own territory, and the names of the three places mentioned in the official document have also become 'Theo Province', 'North Ao Province', and 'North Queensland Province'.

The three provinces are vast and sparsely populated, in addition to the kingdom garrison, there are more than 200,000 Odalia natives left, they have been subjected to the discriminatory treatment of Odalia's axe, and have no sense of belonging to Odalia, the kingdom conquered these places, and the natives immediately raised their hands and surrendered, willing to become the citizens of the kingdom, more than 200,000 people live on the land of 3 million square kilometers, and the probability of encountering kangaroos in these places is greater than the probability of meeting people.

"Let's do it according to the territory of the kingdom." Zhang Yifeng groaned slightly and said.

Croft's eyes lit up, and the wrinkles on his old face were raised, like a blooming chrysanthemum, "The land area of the Kingdom of PNG has reached 3.4 million square kilometers......

Zhang Yifeng smiled.

Most of the extra 300 square kilometers of land is desert and is a barren area of Odalia, but the western part of Western Ao Province contains rich iron ore resources, Northern Austrian Province and North Queensland Province are also rich in mineral deposits, and a small part of the area is sheep and cattle herding belt, wheat planting area, which has a certain economic development value.

Receiving clear instructions, Croft happily took his leave, and just about ten minutes after he left, Pang Sen hurriedly broke into the Rainbow Palace, and said in a heavy tone: "Your Majesty, the Military Search Bureau has found the traces of Her Royal Highness the Princess......"
