Princess Ililovna frowned and said, "How many officials have received bribes? Do you know?"

Prince Eugene shook his head lightly and said, "I'm not very clear about this matter, but I know that many officials must have received a lot of bribes."

Princess Ililovna was stunned for a moment, and asked, "How do you know?"

Prince Eugene said: "When the British Prime Minister said that officials were taking bribes from foreign companies, I saw that the face of the father changed, and he suddenly became very flustered, which was completely different from the previous calmness, and immediately made excuses to end talks, so I think it must be very, very serious."

Princess Ililovna thought for a while and said, "I don't know how to solve this matter, I have to report to Mr. Lin Yuan."

Prince Eugene said: "The British are holding these two cards. Tell Mr. Lin Yuan, I'm going back too."

Princess Yililovna stood up and bid farewell to Prince Eugene. At this moment, Lin Xuezhi came over and asked, "Have you got everything clear?"

Princess Yililovna told Lin Xuezhi about the matter, and Lin Xuezhi said: "I will send a telegram to my brother, asking him how to deal with this matter."

Lin Xuezhi then sent a telegram to Lin Yuan. Seeing the telegram, Lin Yuan thought to himself that the matter of raw materials is relatively easy to solve, but the matter of high-level officials collecting bribes is difficult. In order to solve this problem, the first thing to do is to The specific circumstances and amount of bribes received by Swedish officials from foreign companies should be clarified.

Lin Yuan then sent a telegram back to Lin Xuezhi, and Lin Xuezhi said to Princess Ililovna after receiving the telegram: "My brother said, let us find out the details of the bribes received by Swedish officials."

Princess Ililovna then called Prince Eugene, and the calls made by the embassy had to be relayed through the Swedish telephone exchange, so whatever Princess Ililovna said on the phone would be heard by the Swedish side, So Princess Yililovna asked Prince Eugene to have dinner on the phone, and told Prince Eugene Lin Yuan's request during dinner.

Prince Eugene readily agreed. After returning home, he would find his confidants and ask about these matters. Prince Eugene’s confidants could also get in touch with various high-ranking officials. Although they didn’t have a comprehensive understanding of the bribes they received from foreign companies, they did know some of them. , So a list was made for Prince Eugene, and foreign companies that paid bribes were also listed on it, so Prince Eugene gave the list to Princess Ililovna.

After Princess Yililovna got the list, she showed it to Lin Xuezhi. Lin Xuezhi also got information about some high-ranking Swedish officials taking bribes through the Chinese intelligence agency in Sweden, but she was still surprised when she saw the list sent by Prince Eugene, because Stockholm station The information we have is simply the tip of the iceberg.

On this list, there are ten princes and fifteen ministers, each of whom received bribes of more than 1000 million U.S. dollars. Bribery and bribery mainly occurred in the North Sea oil development rights transaction. It accounts for [-]% of the world's oil production. In this era, because the large oil field in the Middle East has not been exploited on a large scale, countries all over the world attach great importance to the exploitation of the North Sea oil field.

The mining of the North Sea oil field is relatively difficult. Ordinary companies do not have this technical strength. The American Petroleum Company, which has mastered the top technology in the oil industry in the world, made a move. The boss of the American Petroleum Company is the well-known oil tycoon in Lin Yuan's era-Rockefeller.

American oil companies tried their best to bring over the oil fields in Norway. Norway was part of Sweden at the time, so senior Swedish officials received a lot of benefits.

After Lin Xuezhi saw the list, she passed it on to Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan was also surprised when he saw the list. If the contents of the list were really exposed, the angry Swedish people would really overthrow Oscar II. world palace.

Lin Yuan stared at the list for 5 minutes, and then came up with a way. He directly contacted Princess Ililovna and asked, "Does Oscar II mean to favor China?"

Princess Ililovna said: "I have only met Oscar II once. Looking at Oscar II, it seems that he really wants to stay out of the struggle between China and Britain, Germany, and the United States, but he seems to be unable to help himself. "

Lin Yuan said: "You go to see him again, and this time you make it clear that only Sweden agrees to Chinese warships sailing into the Baltic Sea without obstruction. China can provide Sweden with the raw materials it needs to develop its industry and help Sweden get rid of high-ranking officials Bribery menace."

Princess Ililovna asked in surprise: "Mr. Lin Yuan, do you have such a method?"

Lin Yuan smiled and said: "Of course, how about this, you don't have to represent me to talk to him, you just invite the king to the embassy, ​​and I will talk to him in person using the video call device."

Princess Ililovna agreed, and went to invite Oscar II. At this time, Oscar II wanted to have a good relationship between China and Britain, so of course he would not refuse the request from China.

At 5:18 on May 9th, Oscar II came to the residence of the Chinese mission. It is no secret that China has video call equipment. Oscar II has heard about it for a long time, so it is not surprising to see the video call equipment.

Oscar II still didn't know that Prince Eugene had told Lin Yuan about the content of his meeting with the British Prime Minister, so Lin Yuan didn't say it directly, but first greeted Oscar II politely, and Oscar II also said There are many polite words on the scene.

After some polite compliments, Lin Yuan cut to the chase and said: "Dear Oscar II, we in China hope that your country will open the ports along the Baltic Sea for our fleet and allow our fleet to enter St. Petersburg."

Oscar II smiled politely, and began to prevaricate: "You have to allow me to think about this matter slowly."

Seeing that Oscar II was trying to evade, Lin Yuan said bluntly: "Your Majesty, I understand your concerns. You are afraid of obstruction from the British side, right?"

It was no surprise for Oscar II to see Lin Yuan mentioning the British obstruction, because Sweden is the focus of the game between China and the UK. If Sweden wants to get closer to China, it will inevitably be opposed by the UK, so Oscar II said indifferently: "The British side has come out." Considering their own interests, they definitely don’t want the Chinese fleet to enter the Baltic Sea.”

Lin Yuan chuckled and asked, "Then what do you mean, Your Majesty? Do you want to give way to the Chinese fleet?"
