Zhong Yi’s office is an ensuite, an inner office, and an outer living room.

At this moment, Li Qimo and Commod were sitting in the living room outside and chatting quietly.

Commod said: "It is said that what happened in Yinjiang has spread to London?"

Li Qimo shrugged and said helplessly: "There is no way. It's not a hundred years ago. A hundred years ago, human communications had to rely on letters. It took at least a few months or even half a year from the Far East to London. But now, it only takes a few seconds for radio waves to go from the Far East to London."

Commodor said: "The public opinion in London is very bad for you?"

Public opinion in London is not only unfavorable to Li Qimo, it is almost impeachment of him.

Members of the House of Commons have already issued a call saying that he has no knowledge of diplomats and has used the Royal Marines to invade the territory of the sovereign state, losing all the face of the Royal!

A person like him is not worthy of being a diplomat! He is not worthy of representing the image of the British Empire!

"There's no way." Li Qimo shrugged again, "The idiots in the House of Commons have completely lost their judgment on the world situation. They only know to please voters and cater to stupid peace and hedonism, but they don't know that the whole of Europe and even the whole world have already become a boiling oil pan!"

Commod spread his hands and said, "So, what are you going to do now?"

Li Qimo was stunned when he heard this and asked Commod: "What should I do?"

Kang Maode said: "In my speculation, Zhong Yi will most likely not obey Chongqing's orders and unconditionally release the 97 Royal Marines officers and soldiers in detention. Therefore, public opinion in London may continue to ferment. Once the public opinion is entangled with the will of Downing Street, you will be in trouble."

"No?" Li Qimo said, "Does Zhong Yi dare not obey Chongqing's instructions?"

"You probably have to be mentally prepared," Commod shrugged, "As far as I know, Zhong Yi was a commander before he entered politics, and he often refused to implement the orders of the Supreme Command."

"Oh Tfak?" Li Qimo said dumbfounded, "What should I do?"

While the two were talking, footsteps suddenly sounded in the corridor outside, and they immediately shut up.

After a while, Zhong Yi's tall and tall figure walked in from the office door.

"Minister Li Qimo, Minister Commod." Zhong Yi smiled, "I'm very sorry, I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Li Qimo and Commod quickly stood up and shook hands with Zhong Yi. Seeing Zhong Yi's smile on his face, Li Qimo's heart was slightly relieved. It seemed that the situation would not be too bad.

Zhong Yi looked at his watch and smiled and said, "I guess there is something important about the two ministers who have been so late?"

Li Qimo said sincerely: "Mayor, we are here this time to apologize to you!"

People are under the roof, and they must bow their heads. In order to continue to stay in the position of the Minister to Yinjiang, and to protect these property they had saved in Yinjiang for many years, Li Qimo had no choice but to bow his head and admit defeat.

Zhong Yi said: "I am deeply pleased that Mr. Minister has such an attitude."

After a pause, Zhong Yi said again: "This is the attitude that a diplomatic envoy of a responsible major country should have!"

"Fake, Fake Yomare!" Li Qimo greeted Zhong Yi's mother fiercely in his heart, but smiled on his face, "If the mayor needs it, I can publish a letter of apology in the Yinjiang Daily tomorrow."

"There is no need." Zhong Yi waved his hand lightly, and he couldn't get a good word, which was boring.

"Then..." Li Qimo and Commod held their eyes in the same way, and said, "Since the matter has passed, should the British Royal Marines detained by you be released?"

"You talk about this." Zhong Yi showed a hint of embarrassment on his face, and said, "This matter is probably not easy to deal with."

Li Qimo's face immediately turned dark, thinking that he really made the decision to make a mistake. This man was so bold that he really planned to refuse to implement Chongqing's instructions.

Li Qimo said carefully: "As far as I know, Chongqing seems to have agreed to release the person?"

"Yes, Chongqing agreed to release the person." Zhong Yi did not deny it, and then changed the subject and said, "But Chongqing did not have clear instructions on when to release the person and how to release it in detail."

Li Qimo was dumbfounded when he heard this, and couldn't help but sigh that Zhong Yi's shirked responsibility was so perfect.

However, I am a fisherman, no matter how dissatisfied I am, I can only endure it. At that moment, Li Qimo said: "Mayor, can I know what is the embarrassment of your side?"

"Of course." Zhong Yi said bluntly, "It's mainly the cost issue."

"Fee?" Li Qimo didn't understand and said in a daze, "What's the cost?"

"Actually nothing," Zhong Yi said, "It is mainly the costs of transportation, food and accommodation incurred during the detention of Marines in your country. In addition, in order to detain Marines in your country, we have to dispatch armed personnel. The dispatch of these armed personnel also requires hard work, right?"

"I think it's something, it turns out to be this." Li Qimo said, "Your Majesty, please tell me, how much?"

Li Qimo thought, how much money can the transportation and food expenses of the ninety-seven Marines? In order to dismiss the weapons and detain these ninety-seven Marines, Yin Jiang dispatched a lot of personnel, but even if the hard work of these people is added, how much money can they have? Li Qimo personally gave this expense!

"Mr. Minister is just happy!" Zhong Yi slapped his hands and pulled a long-prepared abacus from the table. While digging, he said, "Then I'll calculate it first."

"That's it, there are 97 Marines in your country."

"For the sake of calculation, let's get zero, and calculate it by one hundred people."

Hearing this, Li Qimo's face turned dark. He only heard that he would wipe down the ground, but he had never heard that he would wipe up the ground, but at least he was only three different people, so Li Qimo endured it.

After a pause, Zhong Yi said again: "These hundred Marines were detained in Zhejiang Second Prison for a total of two days!"

Commod couldn't help but retort: ​​"Mayor, the 100 Marines were detained by you this afternoon, so it's only half a day to make a decision."
Chapter completed!
