Chapter 367: Alliance

Four days after the start of the price hike…

A lot of people were now creating a ruckus outside of the palace. Of course, most of those people were paid to cause chaos and riot everywhere.

Disorder immediately erupted everywhere in the country, as many people were causing a commotion and intentionally making troubles for everyone who was working for the Government.

It was eight in the morning when the palace announced that the King would be making a statement and invited some media for a press conference.

This announcement did not surprise a lot of people since they had already expected that kind of response from the King for some time now. However, it did not mean that the chaos in the countryside had stopped, as more and more people from the lower class were causing riots.

"This is not surprising." Jiang Yue stated. "The Kim Family is smart enough to cause panic and target the people living in the countryside. Everyone, who is earning below the minimum, will immediately panic if they receive a piece of news about food shortage, accompanied by a price hike."

"Li Qiang for sure is smart enough to do this. However, he has underestimated me too much," she added before looking at Fu Jin. "It's time... Are you coming with me?"

....

Gideon stared at the people in front of him. To his left, the Prime Minister was standing tall with his grumpy face. To his right were the Cabinet members who were solemnly looking at everyone.

Gideon sneered inwardly at the hypocrisy of those people. Almost every one of those people, who were standing next to him, had taken advantage of this economic problem. They just thought that he was unaware or was turning a blind eye to their actions.

However, Gideon was not doing anything right now simply because of Jiang Yue's plans.

"Good morning," he started. "I am here to address the recent problem that we experienced just a few days ago. This economic problem, coupled with some fake news, has created a panic among everyone. And I am here to tell you to not worry, as we are doing our best to prioritize the welfare of our people."

"A portion of the money, which has been previously allocated for military purposes, will be used to purchase rice and other commodities from abroad. Moreover, Wang Empire promised to help by purchasing rice and medicinal supplies from B Country and selling it at a lower price in our country," he said. This was originally Jiang Yue's plan. Since the Kim Family wanted to cause chaos, Jiang Yue planned to use that against them and gain some support from everyone.

To be honest, Gideon found this move brilliant, as it would make everyone view Jiang Yue in a new light. Moreover, it would prepare the mindset of everyone when Jiang Yue took over as the new Queen of this country.

His statement earned a lot of surprised gasps from the Cabinet members and most importantly from the Prime Minister. It was not part of their meetings and everyone was shocked to hear that from the King himself.

"In fact, a mobile store will be available in every part of the country in the next twenty-four hours. These Mobile stores will have some cheap supplies for everyone. From rice to canned goods and even some basic medications. The Mobile store will be available to everyone." He added. Until then, Gideon still could not stop applauding Jiang Yue's wisdom. When she noticed that someone was buying the food supplies from the Black Market, she immediately told Gideon to prepare big vans that could be used to transport food, and at the same time, act as a store.

Since M Country was actually not that big. Jiang Yue's plan immediately came to fruition. Even making Gideon speechless.

With that move, Jiang Yue and Wang Empire would gain the recognition by a lot of people. Gideon was also sure that it would surprise the Kim Family and would make them unable to counterattack for a while. After all, they had already been preparing their plan of sabotaging the economy for a long time now. A surprising move like that would surely catch them off guard.

That was only because the Kim Family did not include Jiang Yue when they started making their plans with Li Qiang. They originally thought that it would, at least, take Jiang Yue and the King a week to act. Who would have thought that Jiang Yue would strike them just the day after they celebrated their victory?

Most of the people who attended this conference immediately applauded at the King's words. As expected their King was able to find a good alliance with someone as prominent as Wang Empire.

Even though the conference was not yet done, the news of Wang Empire helping the country was already posted online, making the head of the Kim Family almost faint from too much anger.
