Chapter 0183: The Big Fish Takes the Bait
Qiao Tianyu was not in a hurry, took out a copy of the "report letter" written by Harita's father and son from his pocket, and handed it to Prince Saltu, "Prince Saltu, look what this is." ”
"Report letter?" Prince Saltu took the letter in surprise and skimmed through it, his face quickly filled with shame.
"Brother Joe, you ...... You're such a good man! I'm ashamed of my man!"
"Haha, Prince Saltu, I told you as soon as I came up today, I came to save you, not to harm you. Qiao Tianyu explained.
"If it's just to hurt you, I don't have to go around in such a big circle, and even go to war with LTCM! You should understand that as long as I shove this report letter from Prince Harita into the hands of the Saudi king, I'm afraid all of you will die!"
"I know, I know!" Prince Saltu was moved to a handful of snot and tears, and nodded vigorously, "Brother Qiao is benevolent, I am ashamed!"
"Alright, well, Prince Saltu, if only you knew that I wasn't here to harm you. Qiao Tianyu patted Prince Saltu on the shoulder and comforted.
Slap in the face and give a sweet date to eat---- this is Qiao Tianyu's tried and tested "taming" technique.
"I understand! I understand!" Prince Saltu hurriedly responded, "Brother Qiao, if there is anything you command, go up the sword mountain and go down to the sea of fire, I, Saltu, have nothing to say!"
"Okay!" Qiao Tianyu was very satisfied with Prince Saltu's statement, "I need your help to deliver this letter to someone." ”
"Someone, who?" Prince Saltu instinctively became alert, thinking that Qiao Tianyu was going to hand the report letter to the Saudi king.
"Don't get me wrong, I would like to ask you to send this letter to Prince Shaheed, the Saudi plenipotentiary to OPEC. Qiao Tianyu explained.
"You should understand that it is precisely because of OPEC's oil production increase policy and LTCM's shorting of the international crude oil market that the international crude oil price plummeted in one month, so the bell must be tied to the bell, and to raise the international crude oil price, I also need the help of Prince Shaheed!"
Prince Shahid is one of the oldest grandsons of the first old Saudi king Ibn Saud, although he is already the third generation prince of the Saudi royal family, but his age is not much different from the second generation of princes such as Saltu, who are in their fifties and are in the prime of life.
"This ......"
Who knew that Prince Saltu, who was still patting his chest just now and was about to go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, was embarrassed when he heard that he was going to deliver the letter to Prince Shahid.
"Prince Saltu, are there any difficulties?" Qiao Tianyu asked.
"Brother Joe, do you know, although Prince Shaheed is my son and nephew, he is about the same age as me, he is arrogant, it is difficult to contact, he only buys the face of Prince Rahel, and he is a diehard loyalist of Prince Rahel!" Prince Saltu hurriedly explained.
"Moreover, Prince Shaheed has a deep grudge with Prince Mahmoud, and the recent suppression of crude oil prices was planned and carried out by Prince Rahel to put Prince Mahmoud to death. ”
"For Prince Shaheed, this time he can not only kill his sworn enemy, Prince Mahmood, but also show loyalty to Prince Rahel, so a letter alone may not be enough for him to betray Prince Rahel, right?"
"Haha, it's okay!" Qiao Tianyu smiled, turned to look at Andre, it was time for Andre to play a role, "Andre, can I borrow the fuchsia pendant around your neck?"
"Huh, boss, you say this?" Andre pulled the pendant from his collar in surprise, but was reluctant to take it off.
Qiao Tianyu knew that this pendant meant a lot to Andre, so he patted Andre on the shoulder with a smile, "Don't worry, I won't lose it for you." ”
"Prince Saltu, can you help find a photographer and take a picture of this pendant?"
"Oh, no problem. ”
Although Prince Saltu didn't know what the pendant was for, no matter what Qiao Tianyu had arranged, he had to do it, so he quickly got up and arranged to find a quick-wash camera, took a picture of the pendant, and developed the photo after a while.
Qiao Tianyu handed over the "report letter" and the photo to Prince Saltu, entrusting him to hand it over to Prince Shaheed as soon as possible, and also left his address in Dubai, if Prince Shaheed is interested, welcome to visit at any time.
After explaining all this, Qiao Tianyu declined Prince Saltu's hospitality, and flew out of Riyadh by helicopter with Andre and returned to Dubai.
However, on the way back to Dubai, Andre was very curious about the importance of his pendant, why Qiao Tianyu showed it to Prince Shaheed, could it be that a powerful and unruly Saudi prince would buy a small pendant?
Qiao Tianyu didn't answer Andrei's question directly, but just told him that he hadn't seen his mother all along, and this time he would definitely give him a big surprise!
However, Qiao Tianyu assured Andre that his mother was by no means just a barmaid in a bar, as the legend suggests......
When he returned to Dubai, it was already four o'clock in the afternoon, Qiao Tianyu didn't care about being hungry, so he found Qiao Dahua first and told him the good news that he had taken care of Prince Saltu.
Qiao Dahua was overjoyed after hearing this, and hurriedly arranged a big meal for Qiao Tianyu and Andre, and the two people who hadn't eaten for a day devoured a big meal.
Who knew that before the meal was finished, Qiao Tianyu received a call from Victor, president of the Yusco Oilfield branch in Dubai.
Victor on the other end of the phone said excitedly that the mysterious big oilman had just called him back and agreed to eat the remaining 27 million tons of oil reserves in the Yusco field at a price of $20 a barrel.
"! the fish is finally hooked!" Qiao Tianyu's hanging heart let go of most of it, it was time to reap the fruits of victory in the big battle with LTCM.
"Viktor, according to the plan, you immediately go back to Moscow to find Palizovsky and buy all the oil in his hands at the negotiated price of 22 crude oil per barrel!"
"Okay!" Victor was excited, and immediately agreed.
Since seeing Qiao Tianyu sell oil from a barrel with a market price of only $12 to $20 a barrel, Victor no longer has any doubts about Qiao Tianyu's admiration.
A big fish has already taken the bait, and then it is time to wait for another big fish to come and bite the hook, but Qiao Tianyu's bait is thrown big enough, so he is not afraid that the big fish will not bite.
So after a full meal, Qiao Tianyu first settled Andre to Victor, let Andre live there for two days first, and then Qiao Tianyu went back to the villa alone to sleep with his head down.
Sure enough, this time it was guessed by Qiao Tianyu again, and another big fish soon came to bite the hook.
At one o'clock in the morning, just as everyone was already asleep, several helicopter gunships suddenly arrived and surrounded the Qiao Dahua manor, and everyone in the villa was woken up by the earth-shattering sound of the helicopter propellers......
