Chapter 657 Chaos in Europe
No matter when these things mastered by the energy group are necessary for people's life, 70% of people in Europe find that their lives really cannot function without the energy group, and the traffic on the main road after many years It seems that the city has never been so quiet as it is today. In the past, at least 20 cars passed by on average every minute, but now there is only one every two minutes on average. Those familiar motor sounds seem to have sunk to the bottom of the Atlantic Ocean.
Today is the seventh day of power cuts in the entire city of Paris. There is no way. The electricity stored by the government has been used up within half a month. Some generators have not been used for two years, and there are not so many of them even if they are turned on temporarily. Coal, besides, it is not a short distance to transport coal from the Ruhr area of Germany to France. It is said that the trains that carry it do not have enough energy, and now they can still ensure sufficient supply for the country's strategic goals. As for the people, it can only be was sacrificed.
Although the energy group also announced a temporary ban on food exports, fortunately the country's food reserves are still sufficient, so that half of Europe will not go hungry, but most of the arable land is planted with some cash crops, and the harvest season will come in a few months It is also impossible to ensure that everyone is fed. A statistics agency has speculated that if the energy group does not send 100 million tons of food to Europe, millions of people in Europe may starve to death this year.
Even those who have food at home may have to scold their mothers now, because there is no natural gas, and the supply has become insufficient since a month ago. There are only three hours of natural gas supply every day, but the pitiful little flame, now it is better, directly No more, the government's complaint phone line is almost blown up, but the government really has no way to reply to the people, because they don't know when the energy group will resume supply.
The most frightening thing is not over yet, because half of the society has been paralyzed, and most factories have closed or half-operated because they don't have enough environmentally friendly oil and electricity, causing the stock markets of European countries to plummet. It has fallen by more than 30% since it was posted for more than a month, and the money in the hands of many people has become a pile of waste paper. The panic in the hearts of Europeans has been suppressed, and a large-scale sell-off has begun. The stocks that were originally valuable are now no different from waste paper. Governments of various countries have announced the temporary closure of the stock market, and then closed the financial transactions in the country, and even residents went to the bank to withdraw money. Money is restricted.
Social security in Europe is also showing a downward trend. Yesterday alone, there were tens of thousands of robberies in the urban area of Berlin. On average, one in twenty Berlin citizens encountered such a thing. Some organizations in the city They began to organize people to take to the streets to protest against the government's insufficient handling of the ten channels, but their government seemed to have no way to do anything. Group after group of special envoys drove to China, hoping that the Chinese rich man could open a business for his country. The green light, but Li Cong's reply is the same, the group is in a state of maintenance, I hope you can understand.
However, there was an episode in the middle, that is, buyers in other regions of the energy group wanted to sell to Europe to make a profit. Now the electricity, environmentally friendly oil and natural gas in Europe are now twice as high as those in other regions of the world. According to the estimates of most experts, there is absolutely no problem in doubling the price in the short term, so these people chose to defy the order of the energy group and take risks.
Although they are very secretive, the satellites of the energy group still captured their photos. The energy group refused to supply these agents again. Your country will also fall into a new round of energy crisis, but this crisis will not last long. , because the energy group will send special personnel to discuss new agency rights with other forces in the country where they are located. However, if they want to obtain new agency rights, the price they pay is almost the sum of their profits in the previous five years, but there are still a large number of organizations that follow Energy group talks,
Just because this profit is too big, even if it pays five years of profit, it is no problem, and there are still five years left for myself to make money.
Originally, the Chinese government wanted to play a mediating role, but seeing Li Cong's tough attitude and the note that the skeleton would give to itself, the Chinese government chose to remain silent. On the surface, I am one way, but secretly I have suffered a lot. It is reasonable not to help you at this time, and it is better to let you suffer a lot.
The situation has entered the second month, and the energy reserves of various countries have completely bottomed out. The energy group does not seem to resume supply at all. On the contrary, the domestic government is becoming more and more incompetent. Some people in the organization have already contacted the people to ask the government to step down, and the calls have been louder and louder. At this time, they thought of their Chinese friends. If they didn’t offend the Chinese people so much at that time, they might not be punished so badly now. Eating a hot meal now feels like a luxury.
Pieces of forests have been cut down, and the original tourist attractions have not been preserved. Winter is about to enter. If there are not enough things to keep warm, a large number of people will starve to death, so a deforestation operation It has been launched in more than half of Europe. It turns out that the greening rate in Europe is at the forefront of the world, because the wood they use is imported from Asian and African countries, and the wood in their own country will never be felled. , It’s all right now, after so many years of accumulation, I can chop it all up at once.
At this time, Yale's hair is messy, and his beard has not been taken care of for many days. If it is not in this room where the gold coins are brilliant, everyone will almost think that he is a homeless man on the street. There is really nothing to do. I guess Wrong direction, originally thought that the Skull and Bones would focus on the financial market, but this time the main direction is the people, and the energy group is the main target. Although the loss of the Rothschild family is not the most serious, but this The loss to Europe is too great. The result of this development is to leave a dilapidated Europe, or Europe will go all out to fight other countries. Given the strength of the United States and China, will they be afraid of Europe? Maybe they still think that if you start a war, I will carve up Europe.
The subordinates became even more frustrated when they saw Yale's appearance. In fact, they can't be blamed for this. Let alone Roche now, it will become like this even if there is no energy supply in the most prosperous period. The oil crisis in the 1970s was all Let the entire capitalist world go back a lot, but at that time, the Middle East was not the only one with oil in the world, what about now? Now there is no other place except for the production of environmentally friendly oil in China, and since Li Cong punished those suppliers who shipped goods to Europe, no one is willing to take their own jobs at risk, no matter how high The price is not good either.
