“Thank you for your effort!”

After bowing to the boss and leaving the store, Yunqi Yu said to her colleague.

“Let’s go home. I am tired.”

“therefore.”

“I wish I had a lot of money too. Then you can’t do this.”

Although China’s economy developed rapidly and wages rose a lot, the gap between the rich and the poor was so great that the wages of elites such as developers were as high as those of developed countries, but simple labor jobs such as Yuwinchi and colleagues working as waiters in restaurants were still low wages. was receiving

Yu Yun-chi and her colleagues work at a restaurant and receive only 1,500 yuan, or 290,000 won in Korean money. With that money, they cannot find a rented room in the downtown area where the store is located, so they have to commute from a house in a far outskirts.

“We are better off, though. Some farmers in the neighborhood live on 1,000 yuan a month. furthermore… … .”

Then the colleague smiled bitterly and said.

“Your town has an energy purchase booth.”

Both the neighborhood where the colleague lives and the neighborhood where Yuwinch lives are designated as special energy purchase zones, but there is no energy purchase booth in the neighborhood where the colleague lives, and only in Yuwinchi’s neighborhood. You winch to get.

The price fluctuated every day with the introduction of the energy trading market, but on average it was about 250 to 300 yuan, so it was about 20% of the monthly salary.

Considering the other family’s energy sales, the additional income from the energy booth was now indispensable for poor people like Yuwinchi.

Even though they receive the same salary, the two people’s standard of living and savings unit are different.

“no way. You too are special. will come in soon Or move to my town at all.”

“The rent in your neighborhood is expensive.”

As energy purchases account for a significant portion of the income of the poor in China, people flock to places with energy booths.

Of course, as people flocked to it, the price of houses in the area was bound to rise.

Energy booths that have a huge impact on real estate and income depending on whether they are in the same area or not.

“The energy sales are higher than the monthly rent gains. So come to my town.”

“Whoa.”

A colleague sighed.

“It’s not that easy. There is no bus from the factory where my wife goes to that town.”

“ah. Then it will be a bit difficult.”

Yuwinchi patted his colleague on the shoulder and said.

“cheer up. There will be good days soon.”

“Is that so?”

While talking like that, the two arrived at the bus terminal.

After saying goodbye, the two each took a bus to their own neighborhood.

That’s how Yu Winchi said after sending his colleague and getting on the bus.

“What would have happened without the energy purchase booth?”

The combined income of himself and his wife is 2,700 yuan, and his colleagues are at a similar level.

However, he, his wife, and his son, a high school student, earned close to 1,000 yuan a month by selling energy, which was a 30 percent difference in their total income.

“I’m glad there is an energy booth in my neighborhood.”

Yuwinch compares his situation with his colleagues and is satisfied that he is at least fortunate.

and how long has it been

After driving for an hour outside the city, Yu Winchi arrived in the neighborhood and took out an identification card from her wallet to use at the energy booth.

“I want to sell it twice, but it’s a pity.”

Yu Winch moved to the energy booth like that.

“huh?”

But aren’t all the people in the neighborhood showing up where the energy booth is?

“what? Was the line too crowded?”

Yu Winchi, who approached with such a puzzled expression, found a local resident he was friendly with and said,

“what’s the matter?”

The villagers were furious and said:

“These lunatics moved the energy booth!”

“what!?”

With a puzzled expression, Yu Winchi checked the energy booth that always greeted her on the way home from work.

However, there were only traces of the existence of the energy booth.

“My energy booth!”

In addition to his and his wife’s salary, another axis that supported the family collapsed.

A local resident gritted his teeth and said.

“Remember the last survey?”

A sudden survey by a Chinese company entrusted by Seron to manage energy booths.

Yu Winchi recalled that he had refused to take the survey because he was annoyed.

“Why is that survey?”

“The survey was about whether they wanted to install an energy booth, and based on that survey, we moved the energy booth! sh*t! If I had known it was like that, I would have responded right away!”

“No, that is nonsense. Then you moved to an area where there are many people who want it?”

Yu Winchi said in an urgent voice.

“Uh, where did you move it?”

“That’s it… … .”

Upon hearing the relocated location, Yu Winchi said in amazement.

“That neighborhood?!”

It is the neighborhood of the colleague who said he was envious of the energy booth on the way home from work.

Yu Winchi said while gnashing his teeth.

“this person… This bastard!”

It would have been better if it had been moved arbitrarily without a survey.

You’ll be heartbroken and angry, but there’s no way the owner will do what he wants.

However, a survey was conducted and the energy booth was moved to a place where many people wanted it according to the survey, but it was a colleague’s neighborhood?

“You pretended to be pitiful and took our energy booth!?”

It feels as if their energy booth has been taken away by a colleague.

Then a man nearby shouted.

“no! If you do this, the house price will fall!”

The number of residents in the neighborhood increased thanks to the energy booth, and landlords who saw the effect of rising house prices.

And everyone in the neighborhood is outraged, regardless of whether they have a lot of money or not, including those who don’t have a house but whose income has increased significantly thanks to the energy booth.

“Has there been any mention of another survey being conducted?”

To Yuwinchi’s words, the villagers responded.

“uh? Come to think of it, this was conducted to resolve the reverse discrimination between those who can and cannot sell energy within the same special zone, so I thought we would continue to conduct surveys to reflect residents’ opinions.”

“okay? do it again? Then you can’t stay still!”

Yuwinchi shouted.

“everyone!”

In an instant, people in the neighborhood pay attention to Yuwinch.

“Shouldn’t we collapse like this! We have to get back what was stolen!”

“what? How are you going to get it back!?”

“They say they’re doing another survey! Then use it to take it back! I mobilized all my family, relatives, and acquaintances somehow!”

Yuwinchi raised blood and shouted.

“Let’s show it! Our unity!”

* * *

“Han Ji-hyeok you crazy bastard!”

The movement of the energy booth suddenly started.

In an instant, 100 million existing users were enraged as they became Nakdonggang duck eggs, and the 100 million newly benefited were delighted.

Naturally, when the joys and sorrows were mixed, a total of 200 million people began to curse each other.

People who have lost the extra income they used to enjoy accuse them of manipulating the survey and took it away, while those who have received new benefits, on the contrary, complain about what is wrong with us enjoying some of the things we have been enjoying well, etc. Since it was a matter of work, the conflict flared up in an instant.

But this was just the beginning.

Seron conducted a surprise survey again in two months through a management company in China, and based on this, the energy booth was relocated again on a large scale.

And that’s for another 100 million users, not the existing 200 million users this time.

Seron, who raised most of the people in the 300 million special zone as objects of conflict, began to show crazy moves from then on.

What used to be divided into 3 groups of 100 million people is now mixed indiscriminately, encouraging conflict not by 3 conflicts but by neighborhood.

Of course, people who are overcome with anger and jealousy toward other neighborhoods in the neighborhood even engage in group fights, and in an instant, the public sentiment of the special zone penetrates the underground and goes down to the bottom of the pit.

Baek Yang, a member of the Standing Committee, shook his head and said.

“Such dirty things… … ! sh*t!”

It’s hot just to touch Taiwan, but now it’s even encouraging domestic conflict.

Of course, the justification is said to be an adjustment for those who have been alienated from benefits, but if it was really for that purpose, it would have to be relocated with a rule on a yearly basis or whatever, but isn’t this literally indiscriminate?

Of course, this was to incite conflict among the Chinese people and put pressure on the Chinese government, which is currently making a stand.

No matter how ruthless the Chinese government is, the number reaching 300 million is terrifying.

“Commissioner, it would be better for the government to step in and stop the energy booth itself… … .”

At the words of his subordinate, Yang Baek slammed the table and said.

“No way!”

Baekyang bit his lip and said.

“At least now, the people are fighting each other, but here we intervene and completely stop it? Then the boiling hatred of 300 million people will be passed on to us.”

What is the reason for wanting Han Ji-hyeok to come out with a card to stop energy purchases in the first place?

In order to transfer the resentment and anger of the people who are about to explode to Han Ji-hyeok.

However, now the capital has increased to 300 million, and even in a situation where the conflict has already reached its peak and is on the verge of an explosion, it was the worst option for the Chinese government, not Han Ji-hyuk, to directly press the explosion button.

“If we stop purchasing energy and at the same time compensate for that, we can still calm down, but if that happens, there will be no controversy about reverse discrimination with people in other regions than in the special zone.”

The financial resources to provide compensation are also a problem, but if that happens, conflicts between the people of the special zone who are now receiving support and the people of other regions will begin.

There was a reasonable reason to sell energy and receive money only during the special zone, so I endured the bitterness, but the special zone continues to receive support even though energy purchases have stopped?

Of course, people in non-special zones are bound to object, asking why we didn’t give it to them.

Of course, this will not bring down the Chinese government.

However, the political position of Baekyang, who led all of this, will surely collapse.

“It’s an all-inclusive furniture.”

Energy purchases cannot be stopped, and the residents of the special zone who are frantically antagonistic cannot be left alone.

In the end, the only thing left was a way to get him to stop negotiating with Han Ji-hyeok.

However, Baekyang, whose political life depended on it, had no intention of making such a choice.

Baekyang said with a cold expression.

“They say attack is the best defense. If you can’t defend, it’s best to attack and damage the enemy to make them submit. What sanctions can we impose on Seron?”

Then the subordinate was embarrassed and said.

“I… that is… … .”

“No way?”

“… yes.”

“This crazy.”

Seron has been self-sufficient in oil and raw materials, as well as food, by showing a move away from China.

Of course, there were no sanctions that China could do to Seron.

After thinking about it for a while, Baekyang said.

“I can’t help it. If we can’t attack Seron, we have no choice but to attack Seron’s stronghold.”

Just as rumors popped up when he touched North Korea, attacking South Korea is the best way to put pressure on Han Ji-hyeok, who is devoted to managing his image in South Korea.

“You should be treated the same way, Han Ji-hyeok.”

* * *

A news that I heard at the time when China was beaten indiscriminately using an energy booth.

It was that the Chinese government banned Chinese tourists from visiting Korea.

Of course, the ban on Chinese tourists, who account for a significant proportion of foreign tourists, will deal a huge blow to the Korean tourism industry.

“Look at these bastards?”

Attacking Korea because you can’t do me?

It’s just the behavior of Chinese people.

“Hmm.”

But it’s definitely a good method.

“how will we do it.”

First of all, if we promote tourism to South Korea by rich North Koreans, it will not completely replace it, but we will be able to reduce the aftermath.

But that’s all I can do.

Just as China gave up defense and went on the attack after being beaten unilaterally, this is not an attack of the nature that I can also block.

“good. Then I have to do the same more… … .”

Just when you decide to fight back, someone calls you.

“hello?”

-Are you the president?

“That’s right.”

– I have something to tell you, so I contacted you.

“Shouldn’t you reveal who you are first?”

– I will only say that I am a person who does not want this conflict between China and the world.

Are you from China?

-We hope that this conflict will be resolved as peacefully as possible.

“It was China who struck first.”

– To be precise, it was Baek Yang, one of the Politburo Standing Committee members, who led it.

“Ohh?”

He is a person who knows the internal affairs of China’s highest power institution.

Of course, that means that even after the person you contacted, there is a person with the same level of power.

And the person in power doesn’t want this situation right now.

“It’s fun. Go on.”

-We believe that the best course of action is to resolve the situation as peacefully as possible after defeating Baekyang, who caused this situation.

“Peacefully. nice in peace By the way.”

I said with a grin.

“Isn’t it first to check if I really intend to end it peacefully?”

-… Are you saying you want to continue?

“Because I haven’t lost anything. ah. tourist? It may be difficult for domestic tourism workers, but it’s not my business, right? There is Seron Land, but it’s not only in Korea, so it doesn’t matter.”

It’s true that being criticized by Koreans is a bit of a burden, but I can’t say it straight away.

– It’s about that much now, but will it be like that in the future? From what you’ve said, I’m guessing you’re thinking of coming up with another hard line in response to the tourist shutdown, which will only make this fight longer and harder on both sides. There is no way for China to attack Seron, but there are many ways to attack Korea.

“hmm. Is it better to end peacefully? Then, let’s unpack the presents.”

I have to get something, so I won’t hold hands or do anything.

– End of border blockade, is this not enough?

“no way. That’s natural, and I need a plus alpha to move.”

– Recognized the revolutionary government as a formal government and additionally signed an FTA with North Korea. how about this

“Ohh?”

An FTA that removes trade barriers.

This is the most obvious benefit at this point.

From nob le mtl dot com

Most of the overland routes currently being laid have no choice but to go through China.

However, if China imposes excessive tariffs here, competitiveness will decrease.

If the North Korean companies that borrow money from the Seron Bank succeed, the Seron Bank will earn more money.

isn’t it bad?

“But what do I believe and just go ahead? After the incident is over, just wash your mouth and you’re done.”

– We have to trust each other and proceed.

“Just tell me who you are?”

-That’s embarrassing. The fact that I contacted Chairman Han to oust Baekyang Standing Committee is a huge burden.

“hmm… … .”

– Trust me. We never lie.

“If you believe me, what do you want me to do?”

-At the Politburo meeting regarding the ban on tourism to Korea, Baekyang’s proposed ban on tourism to Korea was accepted, but the atmosphere was quite bad. There was an atmosphere of condemnation, saying that they had suffered too much damage at home and abroad because of just one border blockade. Of course, Baekyang’s argument that China’s pride would collapse if it succumbed like this was eventually passed, but it means that Baekyang’s political position is very precarious.

said the man in a quiet voice.

-So please give it a very loud shake just once.

“Very loud?”

-yes. Instead of acting directly as before, instead, as a show action. If real attacks continue to come and go, it will be difficult to catch up.

“aha.”

Is that why you contacted me first?

If I attack with a real deal, China has no choice but to counterattack because of pride.

How to make me take an attack action like I’m going to throw a big blow from the outside, and then they use that as an excuse to expel Baek Yang from the inside and then negotiate with me.

“Once I know. Let’s think about it.”

After a phone call with someone so unknown, I said.

“Not bad.”

Create a foundation for North Korea to grow and see moderately peaceful compromises.

But trusting and being dragged around by someone you don’t even know is not to my liking.

“Besides, just looking at it, the calculations aren’t right. That bastard is not going to push out his political opponents and gain more power.”

I’d rather reveal everything and let’s do well together in the future!

If it was this, I would have accepted it on that condition, but helping someone unknown to me to get rid of the static is not worth the money.

After pondering for a while, I summoned a specter from subspace and said.

“The fact that divided the Chinese people, shall we turn the political world into a mess? Do you think we can get more out of it if we negotiate after making such a mess?”

Coincidentally, even within the highest power organ, the Politburo, there are pros and cons, and among them, Baekyang is the main pillar of the opposition, so based on this, we use our beautiful spirit of anger to cause conflict among Chinese high-ranking politicians.

Since the existence of the Specter is already known, it’s okay to use it too excessively, and to a level that pushes you to cross the line a little more than you do now.

“If I mess up the political scene like that, I won’t have a much better advantage in negotiations.”

Diplomatic issues and civil conflicts intensify because of me, and if even politicians are divided, I have no choice but to offer me better conditions in order to somehow resolve it.

“okay. Let’s go with this.”

I called the number I just called back.

– Have you thought about it?

“yes. I like your suggestion. I will accept it.”

I said with a grin.

“Now then, shall we seriously talk about future plans?”
