Chapter 350: crazy idea

“…As long as it is handled properly, these funds will be turned into our political capital. We can use these funds to cultivate a stronger army, control the situation in Haiti, and buy a few protest leaders and local media. , to make arrangements for future elections."

Although relying on a military coup to successfully come to power, this does not mean that his position is stable.

The new president is very clear that the reason why he succeeded in taking office is that he has a strong military in his hands, but it also has a great connection with the unpopular performance of the previous president.

It is precisely because the previous president's excessive corruption during his reign, coupled with the sudden natural disaster and earthquake that the government departments at that time dealt with extremely badly, caused huge local grievances in Haiti, and he seized the opportunity to succeed. Push down.

However, after successfully taking office, the new president did not want to correct the corruption of the previous government and win the hearts of the people.

Instead, it uses more powerful means to oppress and control the local situation in Haiti, so as to stabilize its position and not become the next president to be overthrown.

In a way, as long as such a president exists, Haiti will never be able to emerge from chaos and poverty.

"Report, Your Excellency, the High Priest is here."

In the office of the president, just as the new president and the military representatives were discussing how to annex donations.

Suddenly, a report came from outside the door.

Hearing the reminder from outside the door, the expressions of the new president and the military representative suddenly changed.

The new president subconsciously touched the tie on his neck, and then he coughed lightly, and said to the soldier reporting outside the door, "Please come in the high priest."

"As ordered!"

Upon receiving the order, the soldier turned and left.

Hearing the sound of footsteps receding outside the door, the new president breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously.

Fear of voodoo is rooted in the hearts of Haitians, even the president.

However, he had to have a good relationship with voodoo, because in addition to the support of the military, voodoo also played a huge role in his success in coming to power.

Through the people's fear and belief in voodoo, he was able to suppress the stricken people during the most chaotic period after the earthquake, so as not to be overthrown just after he came to power.

"Whoo~"

Taking a deep breath, when the new president sorted out his emotions, the high priest outside also entered the office.

"Your Excellency."

The appearance of the high priest seemed to make the atmosphere of the entire president's office a lot gloomier in an instant.

Turning his withered face, he nodded to the new president in front of him. There was no sign of respect on the face of the high priest.

For him, only the queen of voodoo religion and God Loa are the objects of respect. As for the president, it doesn't make much difference to voodoo religion no matter who comes.

"The High Priest."

Looking at the high priest who appeared in front of him, the new president's eyes swept over the head around his neck, barely suppressing the discomfort in his heart, pulling the corners of his mouth to reveal a reluctant smile and asking the high priest who entered the presidential palace. Said: "I don't know why you came to the Presidential Palace this time?"

"This year's Voodoo Festival is about to be held. This time the festival is a bit special. I need your assistance, Your Excellency the President."

"Voodoo festival?"

Hearing the high priest's answer, the new president's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise.

During this time, he had been so busy dealing with the things at hand that he almost forgot about the Voodoo Festival.

Of course, originally, this kind of simple festival had nothing to do with his president. When it was held before, all the president needed to do was to attend and cheer on it, representing the official support of Haiti for this local religious festival of Voodoo.

However, listening to the words of the high priest, this time the Voodoo Festival seems to be very different from the past.

"I don't know the high priest, what is the reason for this Voodoo festival?"

After thinking for a while in my heart, the new president opened his mouth tentatively, wanting to ask something.

"Sorry, Your Excellency."

Shaking his head, he refused the President's inquiry without hesitation.

The high priest touched the head on his neck and looked at the president in front of him with his cloudy eyes: "You just need to understand one thing, once the ceremony is over, Haiti will usher in earth-shaking changes, no matter if it is the so-called United Nations peacekeeping organizations. , or the United States, China, it will no longer be a problem, we will be on an equal footing with these great powers in the world, and voodoo will become the greatest existence in the world, and people in the whole world will flock to us..."

"On an equal footing with the great powers?"

Hearing the absurd words from the high priest's mouth, the new president couldn't help but flash a look of astonishment in his eyes.

He felt that the high priest of the voodoo religion in front of him was completely crazy, or that he had never seen other countries in the world because he stayed in Haiti all year round.

It is precisely because he has become the President of Haiti and holds a high position that he is more aware of the gap between countries, which is bigger than that between people.

The wealth, military power and a series of superpowers are far beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

The fiscal policy of one state and one province on the other side is more than a few years in Haiti.

Of course, although inwardly, don't think about the nonsense that the high priest said, but on the surface, the new president still maintains his basic appearance and doesn't say much.

"I know you don't believe all of what I'm saying right now."

Although, the new president in front of him did not question what he said.

But the high priest seems to have seen through the other party's inner thoughts long ago~www.readwn.com~ He didn't show any anger about it, just looked at the new president calmly and said, "But, it won't take too long. Time, you will understand when the Voodoo Festival is over, Your Excellency."

"Please remember that voodoo is the root of Haiti, and only if voodoo continues to exist in Haiti will it have a chance to turn over."

After discussing the arrangements for the Voodoo festival two days later, leaving a meaningful message, the high priest turned and left.

In the office, looking at the back of the high priest leaving, the military representative who had been silent since just now couldn't help but speak.

"Could it be that the High Priest can really make Haiti an existence that keeps pace with those great powers in the world?"

"Absolutely impossible."

Shaking his head, no matter how decisive the High Priest said, the new president still feels that this possibility does not exist at all.

"Even if such an opportunity does arise, those superpowers will not allow it to happen in Haiti. Once sanctions are launched, Haiti's fragile economic environment for people's livelihood will collapse in an instant."
