Chapter 339 Formal Replacement

On the 22nd, Ji Feng, who had been resting comfortably for more than a month, received a call from Jin Bingli, inviting him to attend the opening ceremony of the island-round railway held on Jeju Island at the end of the month. Ji Feng thought about it and agreed. He also wanted to go over and see how the construction of the Jeju Island Hotel had reached.

When I took over Jeju Island, I had basically put all the investments into practice. However, because the construction period of the island-round railway project was relatively long and the wireless power transformation of the train was delayed, the construction period was delayed again and again.

The Jeju Island Hotel was originally a seven-star hotel that Ji Feng owned. The main body was completed last year and entered into the interior decoration. Everything was based on the design and construction drawings. If it was finally built, it would definitely be beautiful and give people extremely luxurious and enjoyable. However, after acquiring Lotte, Ji Feng had transferred this part to Lotte for operation. At the same time, the hotel was dismantled from Lotte Group and merged with the original Hotel and Catering Group to form a new Jeju Hotel and Catering Group.

On the 23rd, at the invitation of Thailand's King Maha Vajiralongkorn, Ji Feng and Xu Xian arrived in Bangkok by special plane. The king, who was in his sixties, and the princess went to the airport to greet him in person.

As soon as they met, the two of them enthusiastically held each other's hand and politely cited under the witness of the media on site. Although Maha Vajiralongkorn hoped that Ji Feng would give up the agreement, it was obviously impossible. Since the decision had been made, all this must be completed as soon as possible so that Thailand can mobilize more energy to negotiate with the bus.

After being unable to obtain warships from the East China Sea Fleet in a short period of time and temporarily unable to obtain excellent army equipment from Ji Feng, Malaysia seemed to have temporarily accepted the fact that Thailand had occupied more than two states, but the opposition in Malaysia is still very strong, which has brought many hidden dangers to the peaceful negotiations between the two sides.

Over the past year, Malaysia and Thailand have caused more than 30,000 casualties, but the refugees caused are over one million. Many of the former Malaysian citizens in more than two states occupied by the Thai army have fled to the south, which has also brought huge trouble to the Malaysian government's rule. Even if Malaysia's economic strength is still good, with such a huge refugee flowing to appease and resettlement, their finances are not worthy.

After a simple meeting at the airport, Ji Feng inspected the Thai guard of honor, and then took a special plane to the king's mansion to attend the state banquet in Thailand at noon that day.

After the state banquet, Ji Feng and King Maha Vajiralongkorn entered a separate meeting. In an independent room, Ji Feng followed Maha Vajiralongkorn to sit down, and after two simple and polite words, he took out a pack of cigarettes and lit one for himself, but he complained in his heart: It's so impolite to be a country of dignified land, when the guests came, they didn't even know how to give up a cigarette.

When the king saw Ji Feng magically pulling out a cigarette and lighter from his pocket, he was stunned. He seemed to have never expected that Ji Feng, who was wearing simple casual trousers and a short-sleeved shirt, would still have this thing on his body. He had been with Ji Feng for several hours, but from beginning to end he could not see that Ji Feng was carrying anything else on his body.

"Mr. King, do you want one? This is a special offer from the Celestial Empire. Premier Qin is quite easy to talk to, so this thing is enough." Ji Feng lit a cigarette, and looked at him in surprise when he saw the country and thought that the other party wanted to suck it, so he took the initiative to give in.

The king hurriedly smiled and shook his head, saying, "Thank you, Mr. Ji, I don't smoke. Mr. Ji, what do you think of our war with Malaysia?"

Ji Feng took a sip of cigarette hard, and while sucking the clouds and smothering, he smiled and shook his head: "Mr. King, you know, I have no interest in the internal affairs of other countries. This is a matter between you and Malaysia. It is not convenient for me, an outsider, to express any opinions."

"It was originally our Thai territory, which was occupied by Britain during World War II. Later, when Malaysia was independent, it was not returned to us. For this matter, we have been between us for decades..."

Ji Feng listened to the country's nagging with a smile. After all, he was an old man in his sixties. Ji Feng still respected him very much. Until he finished speaking, he shrugged and smiled: "Sir, I personally understand your mood. History has always caused some things that are difficult for us to accept, such as the purchase agreement in Phuket. Although I don't know how my great-grandfather got this island from your country, this cannot change the authenticity of the purchase agreement."

The king looked at Ji Feng with a dim look and said, "Does Mr. Ji think we shouldn't take back the lost land?"

Ji Feng smiled and shook his head again and said, "Sir, I have no right to ask about your country and Malaysia. I only care whether my own interests are protected. As long as the agreement between us is successfully implemented, I can guarantee you that I will not sell even one bullet to Malaysia until the two countries sign the armistice agreement."

Malaysia's supply mainly comes from the United States and the United Kingdom. Although both countries openly hope that both sides will be calm, the United States hopes that the war between the two countries will never stop. Of course, it must be within a controllable range. The United States has a military base in Malaysia. This is also the reason why the Thai navy has been reluctant to go south. Once it goes south, it will inevitably offend the United States. Although they also know that the United States has secretly exported billions of dollars of equipment and supplies to Malaysia, they have no choice.

Although he was a little disappointed to not win over Ji Feng to deal with Malaysia together, he still felt a little satisfied with Maha Vajiralongkorn when he heard Ji Feng’s personal promise. After all, Ji Feng’s military strength is worthwhile in the entire Southeast Asia, which has been confirmed through the defeat between Malaysia and the Philippines.

Next, the king turned the topic to economics and trade, especially the handover of the Isthmus of Kra. Originally, he thought that he would wait a while, preferably next year and next year, but he did not expect that Ji Feng would refuse to do so. After signing the formal replacement agreement, Thailand has a three-month period for evacuation personnel. The Ministry of Government will send people to settle in next month. The border with Thailand will be clearly defined by the end of June. In the second half of the year, Ji Feng will establish a barbed wire on the dividing line to prevent Thai people from entering and leaving their territory at will.

As for the roads and railway issues that Thailand is concerned about, Ji Feng also gave guarantees. The current railway can continue to be used. In the future, Ji Feng will build a highway bridge and a railway bridge on the canal to ensure normal traffic between the north and south parts of Thailand. However, outside these two roads, it is best to avoid your territory when Thailand plans new roads.

Moreover, both roads and railways will be closed. Ji Feng is only responsible for investment and construction, which is considered to compensate Thailand for some losses. As for future maintenance, Ji Feng will not care about it, such as roads, railway environmental cleaning, road maintenance, etc.

At the same time, in order to ensure the safety of its own private territory, Thailand must ensure that all vehicles passing through this place are not allowed to carry any dangerous items, and they must not throw dangerous or poisonous substances outward. If there are military and police in Thailand who need to pass here, they must also obtain Ji Feng's consent first. Otherwise, Ji Feng will be regarded as Thailand's invasion of his own private territory. Ji Feng has the right to expel, detain, or even shoot the military and police who enter the area without permission.

In order to ensure safety, Ji Feng will set up a regiment of troops in this area, and set up a naval base on each side of the east and west sides. All civilian ships on both sides can pass at will. If military ships want to enter the other party's waters, they must notify them in advance before entering. The permit does not require the consent of the Ministry of National Defense of both sides. After all, that is too troublesome. As long as the local military supervisor agrees, they can go.

Ji Feng locally rejected the matter of His Majesty the King's proposal that Thailand wants to invest part of its funds and occupy the canal shares. This canal will be solely owned by itself and is not close to the investment application of any country or consortium. It is not short of money and has no pressure on funds. After completion, it will also be treated equally. Civilian ships from all countries can leave, as long as they pay the fee.

As a city in Jifeng territory, although Ranong has a population of only tens of thousands, it is a famous waterfall hot spring city. Myanmar is just a river away. Jifeng will invest in expanding the scale of Ranong's city and build a new large international airport here. At the same time, the main administrative agencies of the local private territory will also be established here.

Although Thailand has evacuated most of the citizens in the territory, Ji Feng allowed him to retain no more than 50,000 people to become islanders in the territory, mainly the population of Ranong City. In the future, Ranong will allow Thai citizens to enter and exit the city at any time with valid ID documents, and even passports do not need to hold a Thai ID card. Of course, if you want to transfer from here or take a boat to other countries and territories, you must hold a valid passport. Although visa-free, a passport is still required.

At four o'clock that afternoon, under the witness of hundreds of media, Ji Feng personally signed a replacement agreement with King Maha Vajiralongkorn.

According to the agreement, Ji Feng obtained 50 kilometers of land, sea area, and the islands of Kara Isthmus, and the Kodai Island and the Kodai Island were all owned by Ji Feng. Although this area was a little smaller than Ji Feng's original size, it was the largest area that Thailand could give up, and the land area in the middle was more than 6,000 square kilometers, which was more than ten times larger than Phuket. If it weren't for the sparsely populated here and the population was less than 300,000, the Thai government would not agree to replace it.

As the two officially signed the agreement, the island network and Jeju TV reported this major news immediately, which shocked the country that was originally paying attention to Ji Feng's sudden trip to Thailand. Unexpectedly, Ji Feng actually took over that piece of land. It seems that the connection between the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean will undergo major changes in the future.

That night, the three countries of the Celestial Empire, South Korea and Japan sent congratulatory messages to Ji Feng. In addition to congratulating Ji Feng on implementing another purchase agreement and reclaiming a private territory, it was to test Ji Feng's digging of the canal in the Isthmus of Kra. However, Ji Feng's reply to them made them a little depressed, so they would be exempted from investment. They could dig the canal by themselves in at most two years. At that time, civil ships from all countries were welcomed to pass through.
