222. Conflict
The news spread quickly, and less than a day after the exploration company left, the news of the discovery of a large opal vein in the alpine pasture spread to all the mining companies in Australia.
Tang Ming successively received calls from major mining companies in Australia, and those who hoped to come to inspect and those who hoped to cooperate with Gaoshan Mining Company were all rejected by Tang Ming.
In addition to Tang Ming, Stilwell also received a lot of phone calls, and he refused no matter who asked for anything according to Tang Ming's instructions, but when a company found Stilwell, he really couldn't refuse.
This is his old club BHP Billiton, as Australia's giant company, BHP Billiton sneezes, the whole of Australia will be shocked, the status is higher than Sinopec, PetroChina, and the four state-owned banks in China, and can influence the existence of Australian national policy.
Since the people of Bihe Billiton wanted to see him, Tang Ming would see him.
The next morning, BHP's motorcade drove into the ranch, and Tang Ming greeted them at the door.
A few people got out of the car, they were between thirty and fifty years old, dressed very formally, all in suits and leather shoes, they walked up to Tang Ming, and one of the middle-aged people around fifty years old said: "Hello, you are Mr. Tang." ”
Tang Ming heard that there was an unconcealed arrogance in this person's tone, and the impression of this person in his heart was not very good, so he couldn't help frowning, but everyone who came was a guest, Tang Ming didn't show it, nodded and said, "Hello, I'm Tang Ming, may I ask who you are?"
The middle-aged man said, "My name is Freeman, I am the vice president of BHP Billiton Australia, and it is a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Tang. ”
Although he heard this, he didn't seem to be surprised to see Tang Ming at all, Tang Ming just nodded perfunctorily and said, "Everyone, please come inside." ”
Coming to the living room, Tang Ming sat down with them face to face, Tang Ming went straight to the point and asked, "Mr. Freeman, what is the matter with your coming over this time?"
Freeman said: "Mr. Tang, I came here on behalf of BHP Billiton to buy Alpine Mining. ”
Tang Ming refused: "I'm sorry, I won't sell the mining company." ”
Freeman said, "Mr. Tang, don't refuse yet, listen to my conditions." ”
Tang Ming shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, no matter what conditions you have, I won't agree." ”
Freeman was very unhappy and said: "Mr. Tang, we have no veins in Australia that BHP Billiton cannot acquire, if Mr. Tang agrees, we will buy it at the market price, if Mr. Tang does not agree, we may use some extraordinary means." ”
Tang Ming restrained his smile, stared at him with his eyes and asked, "Are you threatening me?"
Freeman shrugged his shoulders and said, "Even if it's so." ”
Tang Ming's heart was full of anger, he smiled angrily, pointed at him and said, "You go out for me now, you are not welcome in my ranch." ”
Freeman stood up and said, "Okay then, but I hope Mr. Tang doesn't regret it." ”
Tang Ming said firmly: "Don't worry, I will never regret it, and I will never sell the mining company to you BHP Billiton." ”
Freeman led the people out, muttering as he went, "Yellow-skinned monkey, there are times when you suffer." ”
When the people around him heard this, they all smiled slightly.
Although they were far away, Tang Ming still heard Freeman's words, the anger in his heart rose, and he resisted the urge to rush out and beat him, sitting in the house and listening to their car driving the villa, but the fire in his heart couldn't be suppressed, and it burned more and more.
He pulled out his cell phone and dialed Alva's to ask him and Kelly to come over.
After a short time, Alva and Kelly arrived, dressed in camouflage uniforms and looking like American GIs.
When they entered the house, they saw Tang Ming sitting in the living room with a gloomy face, it was the first time they saw Tang Ming like this, they didn't know what was going on, they looked at each other, and stood in front of Tang Ming without speaking.
Tang Ming lowered his head and thought for a while, then raised his head to see that they had already come, and said, "You know the cars that came over just now. ”
Alva said, "Yes. ”
Tang Ming said: "I hope you can teach them some lessons. ”
Alva didn't ask who was in the car, nor did he ask Tang Ming what happened, and said happily: "Okay, boss, we will definitely not go back safely." ”
Tang Ming was very satisfied with Alva's attitude and said, "Don't kill anyone. ”
Kelly said, "Don't worry, boss, we're in charge." ”
Tang Ming waved his hand and said, "Go ahead." ”
Alva and Kelly turned and walked out.
Raising soldiers for a thousand days is used for a while, Tang Ming spent so much money to buy such equipment for the security company, now the time has come to test them, if they can't even do this little thing, Tang Ming will have no point in opening a security company.
At this time, Tony walked over, sat down next to Tang Ming, and said, "I saw everything just now, I guess that Freeman should be a racist, but, Don, it's dangerous for you to do this now." ”
Tang Ming asked, "What's the danger?"
"Mining companies are not as simple as you think, especially BHP Billiton, not only are they rich and powerful, they also have guns, their mine protection team is a big security company, well-equipped, if you use this method against their people, they will use the same method against you, the law is less binding on them than you think." ”
Tang Ming said: "I know, that's why I use this method to deal with them, since you can't use power and money to subdue them, then use the simplest and most direct means, compare who is more ruthless, as long as BHP Billiton is subdued, other mining companies will not dare to covet the opal veins in the ranch." ”
Tony knew that he couldn't persuade Tang Ming, so he could only smile bitterly and shake his head, no longer persuading him, Tony always felt that Tang Ming's personality was very peaceful, but he didn't expect this side.
Of course, a man who likes to play with guns and helicopters and runs a security company to protect his ranch has a savage side no matter how peaceful his personality is.
……
As Alva and Kelly left the villa and headed for the security company's base, Kelly asked, "Alva, why didn't you just ask the boss who he was going to deal with?"
Alva said, "Why do you ask so much, and we will do whatever the boss tells us to do." ”
Kelly shook his head and stopped talking, and at the same time, the ambition in his heart to get on the throne disappeared without a trace, although Alva's ability was much worse than him, but judging from today's performance, Tang Ming would never replace Alva. (To be continued.) )
