"Bang!" The door of a single building was kicked open by a Red Alert soldier in camouflage uniform. Four Red Alert soldiers rushed in with rifles in their hands. Screams and curses came from inside.
In less than a minute, the sound stopped. Then, the man from the Thousand Island Nation, whose head was covered in blood, was dragged out and thrown into an off-road vehicle.
This scene played out everywhere in Pontenak. The soldiers of the first armored brigade's two infantry companies were mobilized, and the soldiers of the two mobilization platoons were used by Li Jiulong as armed police.
Hundreds of soldiers were dispatched to arrest the businessmen of the Thousand Island Kingdom who had raised prices and refused to cooperate. Of course, there were also Gu Qiao people among them. Since they had chosen to go against him, Li Jiulong would definitely not be polite.
He understood his current situation very well. The entire city of Pontenak looked very calm, but in fact, there were undercurrents surging. He had to use iron-blooded means to intimidate some people, or else it would sooner or later become chaotic.
The purpose of this arrest was to intimidate the people of Qiandao Island, to beat the Gu Qiao merchant group, and to restore the normal price of goods. This goal had been achieved tonight.
The number of people arrested had already exceeded 500. This arrest operation was very large, and there was even a gunfight.
Meanwhile, Li Jiulong had publicized the operation through radio, radio, and television to avoid causing greater panic. The guidance of the fishing vessel was very important. At such a tense moment, it was necessary to calm the people.
On the second day, Li Jiulong extended an olive branch to the merchants of the Gu Qiao people and asked them to come to a luxury hotel in Pontenak to discuss the economic development of the city. It was obvious that he was handing over the empty market to them to operate.
Li Jiulong was very busy right now. It was impossible for him to open a company or something. Besides, before the industrial center came out, he did not have any projects in his hands. He had intercepted a lot of oil, but he had no place to sell it.
Therefore, by handing over these small markets to the Gu Qiao people, they could also tie them to their own warships.
The business group of the Gu Qiao people was still relatively united. When Li Jiulong spread the news and sent them invitations, they began to gather and discuss.
"President Liu, we can't go. What if this is a trap? Do you know how many people those bandits captured last night? Although they claim to be Gu Qiao people, only they know what's going on. I won't go. If I go, I'll be walking into a trap!”A middle-aged man in a suit looked at a silver-haired old man and said.
The old man had his eyes closed the entire time. No one knew what he was thinking, so he ignored the middle-aged man.
Another person objected." Hmph, Second Master Li, you think too highly of yourself. If we wanted to catch you, we wouldn't have waited until now. We could have caught you last night. Actually, I think this is our chance!”
After saying that, the old man walked out with the help of a young man.
In the corridor, the young man asked the old man,""Grandpa, do you choose to go or not?”
The old man glanced at him and said,""Of course we have to go. Do you think we have a way out? Last night, that young man used his methods to tell us that those who submit to me will prosper and those who resist me will die!”
"But you can't stay here. I'll arrange for you to go to the Lion Kingdom tonight!”
When the young man heard this, he was shocked and asked," Grandpa, you don't believe him?"
"It's not that I don't believe you, but I'm just preparing for a rainy day. I'm the hope of our family. We can't put all our eggs in one basket.”
After the meeting ended, many people began to find their own small groups and began to discuss. The old man had already explained it very clearly.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the number of people present exceeded Li Jiulong's imagination. He thought that it would be good if only half of them came, but he did not expect that almost two-thirds of them came. It seemed that there were still many smart people.
As for those who didn't come, they were destined to be sidelined. Li Jiulong wouldn't capture them, but he could isolate them and set an example for them!
With the help of these people, the economy of the city had been stabilized, and the city had begun to operate. He only needed to wait for another half a month before he could start planning the industrial development of the city. The naval base was also almost completed.
The premise of the naval base was that it needed a port city, and Pontenak happened to be one. He was looking forward to it very much, hoping that the naval base would give him something good!
