Chapter 117: Strategies, plans and favors.
"I have always been a member of the family." Junjie replied.
"Pssh.....we don’t have traitors in our ranks." Ringo muttered.
Junjie grunted and said, in a frustrated voice, "I am not a traitor. I made one bad choice....one!!!"
Mingzhe looked at his watch and he sent the two men that would spend all night arguing about this matter unimpressed looks. "Can we get back to the stolen national treasures and Long Bo’s potential treasonous ambitions? It is either he is making all this money to enrich himself or her is using it to assemble an arsenal of weapons and soldiers that will propel him to the throne."
Ringo drawled out in an unbothered voice, "There is always someone plotting treason. So many small groups of terrorists have been disbanded in the last ten years and yet for each one that we take down, two more rise in its place. This race for space has not made things better with the rich people worldwide looking to establish new leadership on our future second home."
"I have heard about that." Junjie muttered. "An organization called The Free Citizen Movement has been behind the small groups which appear to be acting independently. I read your reports uncle."
Ringo opened his mouth to say, ’I am not your uncle.’ But, professionalism ruled and he swallowed the denial down. "The internet had united people from different nations that want a home that is not under the rule of monarchies. If monarchies should continue, they suggest that at least, the crown should be rotated and passed around among a group of chosen families. Others suggest that the royals present a select group of princes and they can vote on which prince they want to lead them."
Junjie scoffed, "They don’t even see how that will make things worse. An example is Long Bo, he is kind and nice on the outside but dark and greedy on the inside. Someone like him can charm his way to the throne with ease.
If people are given the right to vote their next king the princes will have to campaign and solicit for votes. They will cajole the people with money and other bribes.
