Chapter 2197: Black Gold Surges

Fulong gritted his teeth, "Okay, then let's talk about tasks and cooperation." ”

"I'm sorry, if there is any task to talk to the silver wolf, I am only responsible for specific actions, not the person in charge of the company's business. Lin Rui shook his head and said.

"What if this mission has something to do with the Secret Society?" Fu Long raised his eyes and looked at Lin Rui.

Lin Rui was slightly stunned and sat down again. "Now I'm a little bit interested. Why don't you talk about it first? ”

"Okay, then I'll be honest. Colonel Fulong whispered, "I don't think you're a stranger to the Secret Society. Although we have been officially denying the existence of such an organization, you and I are well aware. Russia has long been the epicenter of the organization's activities. ”

"Not only in Russia, but also in the United Kingdom, the United States and European countries, they are also active. It's just more subtle. Lin Rui said calmly.

"That's right, this group is completely different from other terrorist organizations that we've been in contact with before, and they're built entirely on a huge economic base. For a long time, they have not engaged in overt terrorist activities, nor do they appear to have any political agendas. Instead, it focuses on organized crime and commercial crime. For a long time, because of their stealth and potential influence, we had a lot of headaches. Fulong shrugged.

Lin Rui nodded calmly, "This is exactly what makes them smart, they have a very complete system. Accumulate wealth in various ways, and then use the development of financial resources to pull their armed forces overseas. ”

Fulong nodded, "Actually, we noticed them a long time ago, and these people are related to many Russian oligarchs. We even believe that some oligarchs are even the backbone of it. This has allowed them to get involved in many industries, including energy, finance, technology, medical and other most profitable industries. And recently we've found out that they're moving assets on a massive scale. Large assets are flowing from Russia to Africa. It is not visible on the surface, but in fact there is a dark tide surging beneath the calm surface. These shady funds are surging in secret. ”

Lin Rui frowned, "What do you want to say?"

Fulong whispered, "We know what the Secret Society is doing in Africa. Don't forget, we're one of the world's four largest intelligence agencies. Such a thing cannot be completely hidden from us. But to be honest, we don't want to interfere, in fact, we want this cancer to leave quickly. Russia has a lot of problems to face, coercion from Western countries, the threat of separatism, and international terrorism. We really don't want to deal with this large and entrenched criminal organization. As I said earlier, a lot of Russian oligarchs are connected to them. And at present, the impact of these multinational corporations and consortia on the Russian economy is enormous. ”

Lin Rui frowned and said, "So, the large-scale underflow of funds has already made the Russian authorities start to worry." Is that what you mean?"

Fulong nodded, "Russia experienced a financial crisis consisting of three major financial turmoil from October 1997 to August 1998. The fundamental reason is Russia's own economic weakness, and the specific triggers are slightly different. The first major fluctuation was mainly caused by the East Asian financial crisis; the second and third were mainly caused by the Russian Government's policy mistakes and distrust of it, and the involvement of international financial speculators in the Russian financial market is also an important reason for the global effect.

The recent surge of black gold has made the top management start to worry again. If it is not handled well, it will make the already poor Russian economy even worse. It will even be far more than the financial crisis of '98. ”

"Exaggerated, right?" Lin Rui frowned, "The secret transfer of funds from the Secret Society can have such an impact?"

"It's not an exaggeration at all. The Secret Society secretly controls a number of large conglomerates, and their withdrawal is not simply a divestment, but a knock on the bone and marrow, and make a fortune before leaving. Once this situation is formed, it will return to the old road of 98 years, and international financial speculators will also get involved in the Russian financial market, causing the foreign exchange market to plummet, the stock market to crash, and the government bond market to suspend the market. Investors will suffer huge losses, lose confidence and start panicking. It's a war for money, and if it succeeds, the Order will take a huge amount of money and leave behind a stormy mess. Fulong said in a low voice.

"Now that you're aware, why don't you do something to stop it?" Lin Rui frowned.

"Because we can't do anything, I said that these huge sums of money are all black gold, and they don't exist at all. But in reality, these funds account for almost 40% of the Russian economy. "So the concerns of the top are not unreasonable, and there is a group of economists there who are helping to come up with ideas." ”

"The Secret Society's financial resources are huge, how can it reach such a point?" Lin Rui frowned, "enough to affect Russia's economy?"

"Don't doubt the strength of those conglomerates and the determination of international financial speculators. In fact, someone once did it, and the quantum hedge fund in '97 almost killed the Russian economy. Fulong shrugged.

"Sorry, we don't understand economics, we're just mercenaries. Lin Rui shook his head.

"But things need to be done, and you are skilled at killing. "We decided to get rid of a few people to delay the onslaught. ”

"Assassination?" Lin Rui frowned.

Fulong nodded, "Yes, mainly a few financial oligarchs who have fled abroad. You know, the more times like this, the less appropriate it is for us to come forward. ”

Lin Rui frowned and said, "Those financial oligarchs are all hand-eyed, and their bodyguards are almost a private army, and many of them are in peaceful countries. These places are off-limits to private military companies. ”

"Please, this isn't the first time you've done dirty work. Colonel Fulong shook his head. "This time I promise my full cooperation and the reward is good. Think about your current situation, the once-powerful Black Island Private Military Company is suffering a series of setbacks in Africa. The mercenary alliance you've worked so hard to build won't last long. Because most of your employers want to maintain the status quo, and the Order is in dire need of expansion.

Once they have the support of this huge amount of money, you will be driven out of Africa. When you help us, you're actually helping yourself. You just think about it. ”

"This matter is too big, I can't be the master, you still have to talk to the silver wolf. Lin Rui shook his head and said.

"Of course, so I hope you don't rush to leave yet, and if Mr. Michelle the Silver Wolf agrees, we may be able to talk about the situation. Colonel Furon shrugged, "At least wait until Michelle the Silver Wolf has an answer." ”

Lin Rui nodded and said, "I'll think about it." ”
