1085. Chapter 1085 Huge Benefits
Fawkes looked at Long Noon and said slowly, "Don't be so sure, Dragon.|For every two people who watch romance, there is an account that has registered for XiaoΒ°Shuo.com. Or, you should take a look at this first. Fawkes pushed a copy of the text on the table in front of him and gestured.
Long Noon took it and looked at it, then closed it again. "What does that mean?" he said with a slight frown.
"As you should see, this document is a detailed record of all the conflicts you have had with the Order, directly or indirectly, over a period of two years. Fawkes sighed and said, "We have the best intelligence system in the world, and we all know about the Society and what you've done. β
"Why am I not surprised at all?" said Long Noon, shrugging.
"Because you know, all the defense contractors are under the surveillance of U.S. intelligence. We know that the relationship between you and the Order is actually very tense. That's why we chose you. Fox said calmly, "I know that you have the ambition to develop independently. But in Africa, it is impossible for the Secret Society to allow a powerful private military company to exist. β
Long Noon was silent.
Fox shrugged, "I've seen so-called African wars. God, that's a joke. It's not that I underestimate the African people, but their thinking is still stuck in the ritualistic mode of tribal warfare, where people on both sides just fire their guns indiscriminately and go home after the bullets.
And the war with mercenaries is completely different, it is a real bloodshed.
Therefore, a powerful mercenary company can even change the direction of wars in many African countries, and slowly affect the pattern of the whole of Africa. Out of self-interest, the Secret Society does not allow such a mercenary company to appear. So you and I both understand how to choose the Black Island Company at present. β
Long Noon nodded, "That's right. There will be a long-term conflict between us and the Order. They are always creating friction and conflicts, and even triggering local wars. However, we are trying to sign agreements with other countries to control the military relations between countries and integrate them into a complete security system to ensure that there will be no war.
The contradictions between us and the Secret Society are irreconcilable, but at the moment, the Black Island Company is not ready. We still don't have what it takes to stand up to the Order head-on. So I can't promise you. β
"You weren't ready, and neither was the Order. So now this is an opportunity, if you can take advantage of the situation to kill the Grand Duke of the Secret Society. It will be the greatest benefit to you. If you lose the Secret Order of the Grand Duke, you will fall into chaos. If the dragon has no leader, the people below will be infighting, self-depletion, and may even be completely divided, and eventually disappear. Fawkes said slowly. "And this time, you'll have the full support of the world's two largest intelligence systems. CIA of the USA and 6 of the UK. β
"I'm a businessman and I only care about profit. Please forgive me for being direct, what good can we do?" said Long Noon calmly.
"We can give you complete control over the mercenary market in Africa. Fox smiled slightly, "The United States has more than 10 billion dollars in aid to Africa, so you know the influence of the United States on African Union countries." And this will also establish the hegemony of your Black Island Company as a private military company in Africa. β
"You drew me a big cake, but it's hard to say if you can actually eat it in your mouth. Long Noon shook his head.
"Not to mention anything else, the United States and many African countries have military cooperation projects of different schedules. As long as you take out a part of it as an outsourcing project, it will be enough for you to win half of the African mercenary market. Coupled with your own development, the Black Island Company can be said to have unlimited prospects. Fox said lightly.
"Can you be the master of this?" said Long Noon, frowning.
"I can't, but someone can. If you help us with this operation. Fawkes said slowly. "I promise you will get what you want. And the reward for this mission is also very generous. β
"Since you are so sure, you must be determined to win, and you already know the identity of the Grand Duke. Lin Rui said suddenly. "Otherwise you wouldn't be so generous. β
Fox hesitated and said, "Yes!"
"So who is this person?" Lin Rui frowned.
"I can't say yet. Unless you are willing to accept the task. Fawkes shook his head.
Long Noon was silent for a while and said, "Can you be sure of the authenticity of the information?"
"It should work. The Englishwoman beside Fawkes nodded, "We have been monitoring the activities of the Secret Society for more than ten years, and we have confirmed this person's identity from many aspects. Although he did a good job of secrecy, our guesses were close to 80 percent accurate. β
Long Noon was silent for a while and said, "What help will you provide us with this operation?" β
"In addition to not being able to participate directly in the operation, we can give you the assistance you need, including all kinds of resources. Fox said seriously.
"With such generous conditions, I don't have to worry about finding anyone. Why don't you find someone else to do it?" Long Ziwu looked at Fawkes.
Fawkes shook his head, "Because I trust you." The first is that your abilities are indeed outstanding, and the second is the contradiction between you and the Order. β
Long Noon muttered, "I need to think about it. β
"Two days have to give me an answer. Because in a week's time, the Society will meet in England. You only get one chance, so if you're sure you want to say no, let us know first. We can make other arrangements. Fawkes nodded politely and got up to shake Ryu's hand at noon.
After Long Noon and Lin Rui left, the Englishwoman frowned and said, "Mr. Fox, I wonder why you are so polite to a few mercenaries. Moreover, so many conditions are prescribed to them. Can't we do this ourselves?"
Fox said slowly, "Because of the risk." We cannot afford to risk such a failure. Regardless of whether the mission is successful or not, or whether the Grand Duke of the Order dies or not, the members of the Order will surely launch a frenzied revenge. Mr. President's term of office is almost up, and he doesn't want to face endless troubles in the final stages of his term. I don't want to start a protracted war on terror because of this.
As for the high price for those mercenaries, it is a drop in the bucket compared to the investment in a war on terror. More crucially, this private military company is capable and in conflict with the Secret Society. β
"But don't you be afraid that these mercenaries will take advantage of the opportunity to sit big?" said the lady, frowning.
"Mercenary companies always have a better bottom line than terrorists. And the bigger you do, the more constrained you are. Like me, I used to smoke, but since I became this counselor, I haven't even quit smoking. On the one hand, because of the image, and on the other hand, because of the responsibility. So, we don't need to worry about private military companies, they are not a problem. Fox said lightly.
