Chapter 1005 Understandable
At that time, the North Dynasty was in the period of the "Misery March". Half a year ago, due to natural reasons and other factors, the North Dynasty suffered from a reduction in grain production and poor harvest, resulting in a shortage of grain supply in the country. 八?一中文网?

Even in some very few areas, there was a famine problem.
Of course, Pyongyang, as the capital, was not troubled by this problem. It was still a scene of singing and dancing, so that tourists who came here could not feel the plight of the North Dynasty at all.
But this was not without cost.
The whole country worked together to supply Pyongyang, which made Pyongyang a seemingly beautiful city, but the lives of people in other cities and regions were not as good as those of Pyongyang citizens.
In this regard, the North Dynasty in different time and space is very similar to the North Dynasty in another time and space.
However, because tourists are not allowed to travel alone or go to other cities, all tourists see a peaceful Pyongyang, and they really don’t know much about other regions.
But Kim Hyun-tae is different.
He had seen some clues along the way from Panmunjom to Pyongyang.
Not to mention that before going to North Korea, he also learned about the current situation of North Korea in detail through Old George, so he knew more about the real situation than those tourists who came to North Korea.
The measure of opening up the tourism industry was decided by Li Baoying's father Li Ertaiyang three months ago, and it was implemented after a short period of preparation.
The main target group of tourists is the neighboring country China.
Due to natural disasters and other factors that led to a reduction in domestic grain production, and at the same time, there was basically no foreign exchange reserves in the country, Li Ertaiyang had no choice.
Without foreign exchange, North Korea would not be able to buy food from the international market to solve the livelihood problems of the people in the country.
Although he could ask the bear or China for assistance, Li Ertaiyang did not want to do so because he felt that it was very face-saving.
So under this premise, Li Ertaiyang opened his mind and decided to use the opening of the tourism industry to earn foreign exchange, and use the earned foreign exchange to buy food.
In fact, from the beginning, Li Ertaiyang set his sights on China.
Even the foreign exchange earned,
Li Ertaiyang has made up his mind to purchase food from China.
The reason is very simple, China's domestic food is cheap.
It has been two months since the opening of tourism in the Northern Dynasty. From the perspective of effect and economy alone, the benefits are still very considerable.
A large number of Chinese tourists came to the Northern Dynasty, and these tourists also invisibly led a large number of industrial chains and activated many related industries in Pyongyang, such as restaurants, amusement parks, bars, etc.
The Pyongyang of the Northern Dynasty in the different time and space can provide many attractions and amusement parks, which is not a little bit stronger than the Northern Dynasty in another time and space.
After all, the international land area on this side of the different time and space is generally ten times larger than that of another time and space, so the advantages of the Northern Dynasty here in the tourism industry are of course ten times more.
Of course, although this is the Northern Dynasty in a different time and space, some classic things are still in the same vein as those in another time and space.
At the foot of Mount Mangyongdae, the former Pyongyang Children's Palace has now been converted into a performance venue specifically for receiving Chinese tourists, and has also been regarded by tour guides as a must-visit place on a fixed tour route.
And Li Baoying brought Jin Xiantai here to watch the show.
The car prepared by Li Baoying was a Soviet-made GAZ military jeep. This kind of car obviously could not be as comfortable as Jin Xiantai's private bulletproof extended armored Hummer, and even the defense power could not be compared.
But having a car to sit in the North Dynasty was already very good, and Jin Xiantai had no way to be picky.
On the way to the Children's Palace, Jin Xiantai recalled the conversations he had exchanged with Li Baoying when he was walking on a quiet path with her.
To be honest, Li Baoying did not tell herself so truthfully, and in fact, she still concealed something more or less.
First of all, she was attacked. Although there were investigation issues and the interests of some powerful people were touched, the main reason was that the Soviets were playing tricks.
Now the Russians are stuck in the quagmire in Afghanistan, so they urgently need North Korea to create some international panic to divert international attention.
Therefore, the Russians hope that North Korea can increase its troops on the 38th parallel, and it would be best if a small-scale armed conflict could be created.
As long as North Korea does this, the situation on the peninsula will immediately attract the attention of the world, especially the energy of the Americans.
After all, the situation on the peninsula is more important to the Americans than Afghanistan.
Now the resistance forces in Afghanistan have been supported by the Americans, so they have gradually stabilized their position.
If the Americans are tied up by the more important situation on the peninsula, then where would they have the energy to take care of Afghanistan.
As long as the Americans can't take care of Afghanistan, the remaining small fish in Afghanistan, such as those organizations supported by Britain and European countries, will not be taken seriously by the Russians at all.
It's just that the Russians didn't expect that when they told Li Ertai Yang about this plan through special channels, Li Ertai Yang refused without thinking.
Oh my god!
What do you want to do, Li Ertai Yang!
You don't listen to Big Brother, what else is there?
Li Ertaiyang's attitude angered the leader of the Bear Country.
Therefore, Mao Xiongguo contacted the military dignitaries of the North Dynasty without making a sound, and persuaded this guy to stand up and overthrow Li Eryang.
What's more coincidental is that this dignitary is facing a ** investigation led by Li Baoying, and as Li Baoying's investigation deepens, it has gradually touched him.
Because he knows Li Eryang's character and Li Baoying's cold-bloodedness, coupled with Mao Xiong's secret instigation, this dignitary simply did not allow the assassination.
Li Eryang was attacked first, and Li Baoying was also attacked at the same time.
Unfortunately, this dignitary was a little brain-dead, and his plans and actions were not so meticulous, so the two assassinations at the same time did not succeed.
Therefore, in the end, he lost his life and was eventually executed by Li Eryang.
Of course, the North Dynasty did not publicize this news, so not many countries in the world knew about this.
If it weren't for Kim Hyun-tae's investment in the gold mine in the North Dynasty and the CIA letting some agents in, the Americans would not have learned about this extremely secret intelligence.
As for Mao Xiong, who also knew about this matter, Mao Xiong would not tell the outside world because this matter was closely related to him.
Mao Xiong is now still worried about how to ease relations with North Korea.
You know, after the arrest of the powerful noble, under Li Baoying's torture, Mao Xiong had already told the whole story of Mao Xiong's role in this matter.
Therefore, North Korea's relationship with Mao Xiong has now reached its lowest point.
Of course, in the international community, North Korea is still a member of the Mao Xiong camp.
But after this incident, it is hard to say whether North Korea can continue to listen to Mao Xiong in everything as before.
Jin Xiantai thinks that Li Ertai's opening of the tourism industry is not just as simple as earning foreign exchange, but it may also be sending a special signal to China.
You know, Li Baoying said that her father plans to use all the foreign exchange earned to buy Chinese food.
And this decision is also a signal of goodwill.
Of course, Kim Hyun-tae is not a fool. He will not expose the things that Lee Bo-young did not tell him. After all, he is not a brain-dead kid.
Since Lee Bo-young did not tell the truth, there is no need for him to know the truth.
So, Lee Bo-young said that, and he just listened.
Anyway, he has completed what George told him to do.
As for how Lee Er-yang will reply to the United States, that is Lee Er-yang's business.
There are more than a dozen Chinese tour groups coming to the Children's Palace, and Kim Hyun-tae and Lee Bo-young joined them.
The young and handsome Kim Hyun-tae and Lee Bo-young, who looked heroic in a North Dynasty military uniform, attracted the attention of many tourists as soon as they appeared.
Kim Hyun-tae glanced at the military rank on Lee Bo-young's shoulder and couldn't help but be amazed.
Wow!
Major general rank!
Lee Bo-young and Kim Hyun-tae are only 18 years old, and they are already major generals.
I have to say, this is really powerful.
More importantly, Lee Bo-young, the female major general of the North Dynasty, is not a vase.
Instead, she is a major general who holds real power.
Not only Kim Hyun-tae was amazed at Li Baoying's military rank, but even the Chinese tourists around were stunned.
Obviously, the Chinese tourists knew that this girl who was very heroic in the military uniform of the Northern Dynasty must not be an ordinary person in the Northern Dynasty.
No one thought that Li Baoying was showing off in the military uniform of her family.
First of all, this is the Northern Dynasty, no one would do this, and no one dared to do this.
Then this shows one thing, Li Baoying is a real military person.
Moreover, the guards around who were also wearing the military uniform of the Northern Dynasty and fully armed with guns and live ammunition can prove this point well.
Li Baoying and her brother are not well known to the outside world.
Although the tourists in the Children's Palace were very curious about who this young female major general of the Northern Dynasty was, no one could guess that Li Baoying was actually the daughter of the highest ruler of the Northern Dynasty.
For the outside world, her father Li Ertaiyang's exposure and popularity are needless to say, but she and her brother are very transparent.
If she hadn't met Kim Hyun-tae, Lee Bo-young might have kept a low profile for a long, long time. She would have to wait until her brother who was still studying in Switzerland came back to take power before she could step onto the stage and appear before the world.
The person in charge of the Children's Palace was informed of Lee Bo-young's arrival, so he excitedly told the young actors who were preparing to perform.
This caused the young actors to become excited, so when they performed, they were like chicken blood, working harder than usual.
The first program began.
A little girl wearing the national costume of the Northern Dynasty sang solo.
As the music sounded, the little girl on the stage opened her mouth, and coupled with the girl's unique exaggerated expressions and movements, a strong and familiar style came over her, making Kim Hyun-tae, who was sitting in the front row, hear the song "Wuli... Simida" echoing in his ears, and he also had a good experience of the live version... the Northern Dynasty style...
