Chapter 1491

It was undeniable that under Zhu Yanyi’s leadership, traditional Chinese medicine in Huaxia was advancing rapidly. One could even say it was progressing by leaps and bounds. The entire world now looked favorably upon the development of Huaxia’s traditional medicine. Many countries had even sent medical students to Huaxia to study, eager to learn the true essence of the art and understand the world where a simple pulse check could diagnose an illness.

On this point, General Roth understood deeply. Even if they refused to bow their heads now, they would likely have to do so sooner or later. The only question was whether this submission would be voluntary or forced.

General Roth felt a growing sense of frustration. However, if he truly refused to yield, his life might not last much longer. He was a man of action, but he also valued his life. He still wanted to live.

Zhu Yanyi was unaware of General Roth’s complex state of mind. She had said what needed to be said. As for how long General Roth, or even the entire M Nation, could hold out, that depended on their perseverance.

She did not concern herself with it, but chaos had already begun in M Nation.

The Huang family, the Shangguan family, the Ma family, and the Wu family all began expelling M Nation employees. This caused the unemployment rate in M Nation to skyrocket overnight like a plane taking off. The economic security of M Nation’s citizens faced an unprecedented crisis.

Westerners shared a common trait: they tended to spend beyond their means.

For example, when buying a house, they would take out a mortgage and repay it monthly. When buying cars, jewelry, or other expensive items, they also spent in advance, with banks covering the costs, and they repaid the banks monthly.

But now that everyone was unemployed and struggling to afford food, where would the extra money come from to repay loans? Consequently, not only was food becoming a problem, but all previous comforts were also at risk.

People in M Nation began to worry about their future. They started holding protests and demonstrations, demanding an answer from the M Nation government.

The President of M Nation was also overwhelmed. Since taking practice chamber, he had never encountered such a situation. Yet here it was. Regardless, since the incident had occurred, he bore responsibility. However, he did not want to bear that burden.

“Which idiot classified the Nyx Card incident as accidental injury?” the President asked an official he had urgently summoned.

The officials exchanged glances. One of them spoke up, “That was just a Huaxian. I thought Huaxians couldn’t do anything to us, so…” The rest of the sentence was left unsaid, but everyone present understood.

“So what? What result did your ‘so’ produce? If things continue like this, the whole world will laugh at M Nation.” The President felt he was going crazy. He had forgotten that he had once thought similarly, which is why he had initially ignored the matter.

“Mr. President, given this situation, what should we do?” another Secretary of State asked.

“What else can we do? Hand over Nyx Card. Send someone to explain that we did not classify the incident as accidental injury; that was completely a rumor. We simply wanted to investigate if anyone was behind Nyx Card. Additionally, inform Huaxia that we highly value our bilateral relations and hope to continue working together hand in hand in the future.”

“Understood.” The Secretary of State nodded seriously. He would handle this personally to avoid further criticism from other countries.

At the same time, General Roth had also come to a decision. Since bowing was inevitable, it was better to do so voluntarily. At least this would preserve some face. Therefore, General Roth sent a message back to his country.

Upon receiving General Roth’s message, the President and his aides breathed a sigh of relief. General Roth held great prestige in the military. If he agreed to this, no one in the military would oppose it.

Thus, news regarding Nyx Card emerged quickly.

Zhu Yanyi naturally received the first-hand information from Yan Aohan. A slight smile touched her lips. “M Nation can’t take it anymore.”

“Yes. The Ma family, the Wu family, the Shangguan family, and the Huang family in M Nation all took action. Many M Nation employees faced imminent dismissal, causing significant damage to the public economy. Consequently, protests and demonstrations have been happening almost daily in M Nation. Under these circumstances, they had no choice but to provide an answer,” Yan Aohan said with a smile.

“I naturally know the Wu and Ma families acted because I am their master. I can also understand why the Shangguan family acted. First, I saved Shangguan Cheng. Second, it is due to the friendship between Cheng and Doumiao. However, the fact that the Huang family also acted is not simple. Huang Yongsheng would not act so generously just because I saved her. It seems the Huang family has gained considerable benefits from cooperating with Huaxia.” Zhu Yanyi was not foolish enough to believe Huang Yongtian acted out of favor for her.

The Huang family’s technology was highly sought after in Huaxia. Moreover, the Huang family had established subsidiaries in Huaxia, and the Huaxia government highly valued their investment.

“Correct. The Huang family’s current status is largely due to you. First, you cured Huang Yongtian’s illness. Second, when the Huang family came to Huaxia, their technology was highly valued, giving them a sense of coming home. Therefore, their assistance this time is understandable. If I am not mistaken, the Huang family will likely quickly terminate their business in M Nation and transfer all their industries back to Huaxia.”

Yan Aohan had researched Huang Yongtian and naturally understood the significance of his actions.

Zhu Yanyi nodded slightly. “I see. Regardless, the Huang family has acted, and I will remember this favor.”

“Your favor is likely the Huang family’s best gain,” Yan Aohan said without flattery. Zhu Yanyi’s current status meant her favors were not something ordinary people could obtain.

If the Huang family had not acted, the result would have been the same. However, by acting, they demonstrated their sincerity. Thus, Zhu Yanyi was destined to owe them a favor.

“Additionally, besides the Huang family, Silver Fox also acted,” Yan Aohan added. He knew this and did not intend to hide it from Zhu Yanyi.

Zhu Yanyi raised an eyebrow slightly. “It’s fine. Let them act. I will just pretend not to know, saving myself from having to repay a favor.”

Yan Aohan was momentarily stunned, then laughed heartily. “You don’t need to worry about Silver Fox’s favor. He will likely have requests for you in the future.”

“I naturally don’t worry about it,” Zhu Yanyi agreed, nodding. “I just feel it is better not to remember this favor for now. Who asked her to be so cunning.”
