Chapter 578 Follow-up Rescue
Ji Feng's will was firmly implemented. Since Ji Feng said that the earth's fortress may have an impact on the moon, no country in the world dared to have this idea. () Anyway, aliens are no longer on Earth, so it is really possible that it is the meaning of temporary supplies during interstellar navigation.
As for the looted North America, what does it have to do with me?
Countless people in the United States were really crying and crying at this time. Although the aliens were driven away, their homes were also finished. Electricity, industry, finance, transportation, etc. were basically all finished. The foundation of modern industry, electricity, can never be restored in a short period of time, because all the nuclear power in the entire North American region is gone, and hydropower, thermal power, solar power, and wind power have also been destroyed in the war with aliens.
Canada, Mexico and the United States occupy the three major countries in North America and are also involved in the three major countries. They are all worried about the future, but how should they survive?
Opposite Alaska, in northern Canada, although there is already a temperature of minus 30 to 40 degrees Celsius, at least free lighting from Alaska can be used here. Of course, it is just lighting. If you want to keep warm, either they burn coal by themselves or cut down the vast forests in northern Canada. Anyway, tens of millions of people have already cut down countless times. The Canadian government is useless now and can't take care of it at all.
Rescue is not unlimited. During the days after the aliens were driven away, even if New Zealand, Celestial Empire, Russia, Britain, France, Germany, Brazil and other countries have invested a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources to rescue them, but facing hundreds of millions of disaster-stricken people, it is unrealistic to count on outsiders. After all, people do not have the obligation to help you survive. Who makes you not a citizen of other countries?
Although many people complained, they were still grateful, especially New Zealand's investment was the most investment in all countries, and even almost all other countries' total investment.
The total investment in Alaska, Hawaii and North and South New Zealand alone, plus the five Los Angeles security zones opened up, exceeded 10 billion Singapore dollars, and as many as 6 million quilts were purchased from the Celestial Empire, Brazil, Africa and self-produced.
The number of children collected exceeded 120,000, and the number of adults reached 87,000. For this reason, patients in the Kingdom of New Zealand complained because the victims in North America severely squeezed out their medical resources. Even if medical staff from the victims joined in to help, it would be impossible to withdraw medical workers in the Kingdom of New Zealand in a short period of time.
Fortunately, the patients in the Kingdom of New Zealand also knew that this was an extraordinary period. Although they had some complaints, they did not make a fuss. In addition, the government's intentional guidance, there were basically no one protesting in the entire kingdom.
Although the Kingdom of New Zealand and most of the countries in the world that helped them were not in trouble, shocking numbers were revealed at the North American regional rescue coordination conference held in Hawaii.
In view of the fact that the United States and the mud-bombing satellites were destroyed, the results of continuous detection by the Kingdom of New Zealand, Russia and the Celestial Empire jointly over North America through satellite reconnaissance.
From the appearance of aliens to the end of February, about 300,000 people died in North America under direct attacks of aliens, more than 70% of whom were soldiers. However, only four pilots were unfortunately killed in the Kingdom of New Zealand, which was the main force of driving away aliens, and it was caused by mistakes in landing points when landing.
The number of people who died of killing and disasters was nearly 10 million, and the monitoring results showed that it was about 9.68 million. It can be said that the land in North America was full of corpses at this time, not only humans, but also a large number of animals. Some domestic animals, especially the large number of cattle and sheep in North America, have suffered damage to varying degrees of damage.
In addition to war as the first factor, it mainly comes from disasters such as refugees, floods, heavy snow, etc., especially Mexico in the United States. The dam breaks down due to several battles with aliens, which directly caused the flood to flood about one-third of the United States and about one-half of Mexico. Although humans can take refuge by escaping to high places, in this cold winter, it is also a great challenge to survive in the absence of daily necessities.
Most of the storage supplies were snatched away by people, which brought great difficulties to the current rescue. The most obvious thing is the continued rise in global food prices. Take rice as an example. The average offshore price of Bangkok rice at 100% B-level and 5% crushing rate before the war was US$480 and US$452 per ton, respectively, but now it has risen to S$638 and S$615 per ton.
You read that right, it was indeed all changed from the US dollar to the Singapore dollar. With the complete end of the United States, the US dollar has basically become waste paper in the international market. This was irreversibly sold out by countries around the world since the aliens plundered supplies from North America.
What replaced the US dollar is the New Zealand Kingdom, which has strong economic strength, military strength and technological strength as the support of the New Zealand dollar.
When it comes to this financial battle, even Spark, who is the financial giant under Ji Feng, is sighing. The competition between the euro, RMB and the Singapore dollar in the international market can be said to have tried all the solutions in this month, but basically the RMB has been at a disadvantage from the beginning, not because the RMB is not strong enough, but countries around the world know that the future growth point of the new economic growth may fall on the head of the Kingdom of New Zealand.
In addition, the Kingdom of New Zealand has signed visa-free agreements with more than 100 countries in the world, and currently has signed free trade and zero tariff agreements with more than 50 countries. In addition, Ji Feng is always mysteriously creating new technologies or new species outward, which continues to attract the attention of countries from all over the world.
After the Spring Festival, it has basically become a contest between the Singapore dollar and the euro. The RMB raised its head during the Spring Festival and was suppressed by two major currencies. Even Ji Feng did not expect that he would take out a million sun trees he had taken out.
After this new species arrived in Alaska and planted tens of thousands of them, the instant increase in temperature could almost achieve the warmth of spring, which immediately shocked the whole world. This magical species made many people in Russia, Brazil, Iceland, and the entire Nordic region support the SGD.
Although the export of this species was not limited in the first Congress, it was not on the list of allowed exports. In addition, the number of sun tree trunks was still relatively small. Although it seemed that the number of millions was not small, it was not much for the huge Alaska.
The Ministry of Agriculture has a very high effect, and of course this cannot be separated from the help of a large number of refugees. Just greet the local refugees in Alaska and you can pull up tens of thousands of people to plant trees. Each 10 trees can be exchanged for food for about a week. Although it is indeed a bit bitter, especially in the temperature of minus 30 to 40 degrees Celsius, as refugees, they no longer dare to thirst for more. As long as they can solve the problem of food and clothing, it will be good.
Through a series of international operations of Spark, coupled with the exchange of interests with various countries, the SGD initially achieved an international status as a replacement for the US dollar. Who made the Kingdom of New Zealand have huge financial reserves? South America still owes Ji Feng trillion US dollars in cash, and now it has been converted into SGD. In addition, Africa, some European countries and most countries in Asia, it can be said that the RMB has not had much advantage from the beginning. Of course, in Europe, it is still the world of the Euro, and even the SGD is difficult here.
But there is an interesting phenomenon. As an euro country, Cyprus has withdrawn and will complete the conversion between the euro and the Singapore dollar before the end of the year in Cyprus. Although Italy has not withdrawn from the euro, many merchants on the market are more willing to collect Singapore dollars. In addition, the Singapore dollar can also be circulated in the UK and Switzerland, which immediately makes some people feel that this state of silence is happening.
The North American Rescue Coordination Conference, after one and a half days of consultation, finally determined the next stage of rescue targets. The three governments of Canada, the United States and Mexico must fulfill their responsibilities, and the future rescue subjects will transform from countries around the world to the three governments themselves.
Countries will provide North America with about S$1 billion in free supplies, but if there is more, they can only pay for it themselves. After all, no one’s things were blown by strong winds. The investment in the past month has made some countries unable to support it.
In addition to constantly thanking countries around the world for their generous donations, the three governments thanked the Kingdom of New Zealand the most, even the US government. If it weren't for the Kingdom of New Zealand and not because of Ji Feng, they still didn't know if there would be a chance to drive the aliens away. Even at this time they heard that the aliens were actually temporary supplies, but this temporary supplies came at the cost of the entire North American region.
Faced with the loss of a large number of talents, the three governments were helpless. In this increasingly free world, they had no reason to stop them.
With rescue and the investment in war, the Kingdom of New Zealand claimed to have invested more than 15 billion yuan. Although the whole world believes that they have exaggerated it, it is well known that the Kingdom of New Zealand has invested the most.
Another thing that happened after the war, and also something that countries around the world worry about, was the spread of the New Zealand Kingdom's troops. Fortunately, the New Zealand Ministry of Defense had made a promise before, and did not make things difficult for all countries. Even if they wanted to keep it, the New Zealand Ministry of Defense did not agree. At the end of the rescue meeting on March 2, Mr. Li Guangrong issued an order to withdraw his troops.
All the troops fighting abroad returned to their respective stations, especially the troops in Los Angeles, which the United States was worried about, boarded the ship and returned to Australia as soon as possible.
At the same time, in order to cope with the high international food prices, in the face of troubles from countries around the world, the Ministry of Agriculture of the Kingdom of New Zealand announced on the second day, on March 3, that is, the main grains such as wheat, corn, soybeans and rice have been raised. Take rice as an example, the FOB price of Princess Palawan will drop to S$420-480 per ton.
The announcement of this news immediately caused the food prices in countries around the world to plummet. The high-priced grain that lasted for nearly a month was finally gradually falling to its proper level. However, the international crude oil price that people had been worried about at this time has not been raised to more than 100 yuan per barrel due to the lack of North America, the world's largest consumer island, and the unlimited supply of several major oil fields in the Kingdom of New Zealand. This alone allowed financial personnel such as Spark to earn hundreds of billions of dollars for the kingdom. Many funds in Europe, Asia, South America and even North America, national investment companies, etc. went bankrupt more than one or two. (To be continued...)
