Chapter 723: Storm in the Gulf (11)

After listening to this, Prince James understood in his heart and said: "I know, now that Germany and France and other Western European countries want to buy more than 10 billion barrels of oil from me, I will immediately sell it, and the more we sell, the more we will make at that time." ”

Yao Yi said with a smile: "Hehe, let's do it, let's make the money in our hands first, and then we can discuss other things slowly." ”

James said, "What about the hostages?"

Yao Yi said with a smile: "I have just said, let your British foreign minister and the US secretary of state talk to me, if they don't come, I won't bother to care about this matter, I still scratch my head about the affairs of Siberia and the Far East, how can I have the time to take care of this matter, besides, if something happens, it is also a matter of the two of you, now is to test whether the politics of your two countries really pay attention to human rights or fake to pay attention to human rights, this hostage incident is a touchstone." ”

James shook his head and said, "I'd better convey your meaning to them, I think it's really difficult to let them come." ”

James didn't have a score in his heart, but Yao Yi knew it very well in his heart.

In the afternoon of the same day, the British foreign minister called Yao Yi, saying that he wanted to meet with Yao Yi that night, and the next day he discussed the matter with Yao Yi with the US Secretary of State.

Yao Yi naturally agreed, because in some matters, the British and American governments are also inseparable, and perhaps, the British foreign minister has other secrets to negotiate with Yao Yi.

As soon as the British Foreign Minister saw Yao Yi that night, he said respectfully and apologetically: "Dear Duke Yao, I apologize for the remarks I made publicly a few days ago, and these words are not my own true meaning, but the US Foreign Minister specially asked me to say this to test Duke Yao's reaction, so I specially met with you in advance tonight to express my sincere advice to you." ”

Yao Yi said with a smile: "Actually, I am also very clear in my heart about the difficulties of you political officials, especially the foreign 'handover' officials, many things are not your original intention, but the will of the country, but you have to bear more blame for the foreign 'handover'. ”

Yao Yi's words suddenly reached the heart of the British Foreign Minister, and he sighed and said: " Duke Yao is really like a torch, look at the question clearly, we are really embarrassed, let's talk about this matter, in fact, we British government fǔ do not want to go against you, and we both have a wide range of economic interests, especially Prince James and your relationship is extraordinary, however, in the current situation, our government fǔ is very helpless to choose to stand on the same front with the United States, because we have too many oil interests in Iraq, only by using the military strength of the United States, can we recover our oil investment in Iraq, otherwise, our investment can only be in vain in the war, I hope Duke Yao can understand our difficulties。 ”

Yao Yi said with a smile: "I don't think your wishful thinking may be able to be realized. ”

The British Foreign Minister said: "Why do you say that?"

Yao Yi said: "Many things cannot be solved by using force, especially the treacherous practice of the US government, which makes me very disgusted, I will not let the United States get any benefits in Iraq's oil, don't believe it and wait and see, they Americans will pay the price, you can also tell the US government." ”

The British foreign minister knew in his heart that Yao Yi's remarks were ostensibly aimed at the Americans, but in fact he was implicitly aimed at the British, because the British accounted for the majority of the oil interests and the number of hostages.

The British Foreign Minister said: "I myself am very disgusted with the US government's approach, and I have had serious discussions with the Prime Minister before I came, and we in the UK are still sticking to the previous practice, and as always, we support Duke Yao, and will once again reiterate all the statements we have made before." ”

Yao Yi said with a smile: "For this matter, I think it is better to fall on paper, after all, there is no evidence between us." ”

Yao Yi has already suffered a loss in this regard, so this time Yao Yi has to have an extra eye to prevent them from cheating at that time.

Yao Yi took out the relevant agreement that had been prepared a long time ago, and then said: "Look, if there is no problem, we can sign it." ”

The British Foreign Minister looked at the agreement in surprise, he didn't expect Yao Yi to be prepared, and at the same time, he also knew in his heart that this time, Yao Yi would definitely not easily agree to their conditions, if there was not enough 'lure' bait, this matter would be completely useless.

He took a closer look at the agreement, and finally said: "This matter is really a bit sudden, and I have to discuss it with our prime minister before I can decide, so I ask for your forgiveness." ”

Yao Yi said: "It's okay, you can study it slowly, anyway, I'm not in a hurry now, I have time." ”

The British Foreign Minister said: "I think our British government will reply to you soon, don't worry, if there is nothing superfluous, then I will withdraw first." ”

Yao Yi smiled and said, "Okay, let's go, I'll send you!"

The British Foreign Minister hurriedly said: "Stay and stay, the matter is urgent, I will go first." ”

With that, the British foreign minister ran away, and now he needs to report not only to their prime minister, but also to the Americans.

At the same time, the US Secretary of State who was on the plane and the US President in the White House in Washington had already obtained Yao Yi's agreement and began to convene his staff to discuss countermeasures.

Early the next morning, after meeting with the US Secretary of State, the British Foreign Minister rushed to Yao Yi's Lake Geneva estate.

They knew very well in their hearts that Yao Yi had time, but the hostages in Iraq did not have so much time, and their lives were in danger at any time, so timely rescue of these people became the most urgent thing.

In addition, the eyes of the whole world are focused on how the United States and Britain deal with the hostage crisis.

After they saw Yao Yi, Yao Yi smiled and said: "Oh, I didn't expect it, this is the first time I have seen such a big man as the US Secretary of State, who can send an aircraft carrier fleet into the rising sea of China, and can say one thing and do another. ”

The U.S. Secretary of State, from Yao Yi's words, felt Yao Yi's strong anger.

Although Yao Yi was angry, he was not angry, and said with a smile on his face: "You are right, in our United States, there are indeed some such big people who keep making 'trouble' in Congress, otherwise, our American politicians will not leave a bad reputation in Duke Yao's heart that words do not count and do not speak credit, and I have seriously criticized some irresponsible congressmen in China." ”
