Chapter 872: Difficult
In the elder's house of the Taha tribe, in the room of the Great Elder, a middle-aged man with a turban was talking to the Great Elder. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Standing next to this middle-aged man in a turban is Horgan, the captain of the mercenary!
It turned out that when he found out that the point he was going to was in the camp of the Changying group, Hogan had a plan to retreat - a team went to fight against the territory that was obviously guarded by someone else's regular army, he didn't think that he had the strength of Rambo, nor did he think that the other party's claim to be the world's first army was blown out, money mattered, but life was more important.
However, what he didn't expect was that just as he was about to take people away, he saw a car in the camp pouring out the soil from the tunnel, and Hogan took the geologist brought by the team to the garbage dump with the intention of picking up the cheap to see the excavated soil and rocks.
Unexpectedly, although this geological expert complained about this and that, but his ability in geological prospecting was really good, and he soon found that there were some associated minerals unique to gold mines in these soil and rocks, although they were not valuable, but they could basically show that there were gold mines below!
That's it! Hogan immediately got in touch with his family and sent the geological expert's test report by the way. At the same time, it also reported the news that Changying Group was digging a mining hole - this gold mine, if you don't fight for it, then wait for Huaxia to pick up the cheap!
Lao Mei was naturally unwilling to let Changying Group pick up such a big bargain for nothing, so the person with the headscarf rushed over overnight, and after merging with the Hogan Society to determine the accuracy of the news, he came to find the Great Elder!
"The land belongs to your Taha tribe." The man with the headscarf smiled and said, "The price we gave earlier was less. A million dollars is just the price we estimate is given by a small gold mine. Now that we are basically certain that this is at least a medium-sized or above gold mine, we have decided to add another four million dollars to the previous amount, to five million dollars, which is enough to show our sincerity! ”
The Great Elder didn't expect the other party to increase this amount so much all of a sudden, which was obviously beyond his expectations, and this price really made him feel excited - although the Shennong No. 1 seed given by Changying Group is growing well now, who can guarantee that when the crops bear fruit later, there will be problems?
And this money is real!
"If you still don't believe me, we can pay a million dollars upfront." The man with the turban smiled and said, "As long as you agree, we can ship the money over tomorrow!" ”
"However, we have already contracted that land to the Changying Group in Huaxia." After thinking about it for a while, the Great Elder shook his head and said, "We can't go back on the decision we have already made. Besides, the Changying Group has already set up a camp there and brought us food, seeds, and supplies, if we regret it now, who will do business with us in the future? ”
"With five million dollars, you are enough to buy food for your tribe for many years and living supplies for many years!" The man in the turban tried to persuade: "They gave you supplies, didn't they?" As long as you agree to get them away, tomorrow I can lobby a nearby US Air Force base to pull a transport plane of supplies to deliver to you! Absolutely pure American! ”
The Great Elder hesitated. Five million dollars! The materials and contracting fees given by Changying Group add up, and there is not so much money!
"Of course, you can also choose not to work with us." Seeing the expression of the Great Elder, the man with the turban knew that there was a play, then leaned back and said with a smile: "However, we do not guarantee the safety of your road to Kandahar - it is said that a small group of armed elements who do not have a good relationship with Huaxia have been moving there recently, if they know that you have a good relationship with Huaxia, and you have leased the land and minerals left to you by your ancestors to Huaxia, I am afraid that it will ...... Your caravans selling ore are in trouble! ”
The Great Elder's face changed suddenly, this is a threat on the surface!
It is a well-known fact that the United States controls several local armed forces in Afghanistan. Because the Taha tribe is located in the middle of several cities in China and Afghanistan, the geographical location is more important.
However, now that the Taha tribe is getting closer and closer to China, and even important minerals are contracted to China for mining, the relationship will become closer and closer in the future.
Even if you can't win it, it's not bad to make this tribe a burden for Huaxia!
The man with the turban looked at the Great Elder's embarrassed expression and smiled.
The Great Elder is really embarrassed!
The inhabitants of the Taha tribe usually live only on herding, and simple agriculture cannot feed them, and even if they do, the annual harvest in this desert is very small, to be honest.
The lapis lazuli mine is almost eighty percent of the Taha's source of income, although they know that if the mine is finally dug up, the tribe's inhabitants will immediately return to their old poor life, and the men will go out to work as mercenaries or join an armed group, and the children will have to go to the battlefield to pick up scrap to sell.
In a place where transportation is not convenient, it can only be like this. It used to be a small oasis around the tribe, but now it's gone. If Lao Mei really colludes with people to cut off the trade route from the tribe to the outside, then the Taha tribe will have no future!
"Think about it!" The man with the turban stood up with a smile, "I'll come over tomorrow and wait for your reply, remember, you only have one day!" After saying that, he turned to leave, and Horgan glanced at the Great Elder and left with an expressionless face.
An hour later, Namur hurried to the Grand Elder's room. When he arrived at the door, he was stopped by the attendants of the Great Elder.
"The Great Elder said that he didn't see anyone, he had to think about something important!"
"Something important? What I'm going to report is more important! "In the past, when Namur heard the news, he usually left, but today's news made him unable to calm down, and he believed that even if the Great Elder heard about this matter, he would be happy.
"No......" the squire insisted.
"Great Elder, I have something important to report to you!" Namur simply shouted outside the room, "It's about the future development of the tribe!" ”
The squire's face changed suddenly, and just as he was about to speak, the voice of the Great Elder came in: "Let him in!" ”
Namur ran in and whispered a few words.
The Great Elder's voice rang out suddenly: "What? Is this true? Bring someone here...... No, I'll go and ask for it personally! ”
The attendant wondered: When the Great Elder ordered not to let people in just now, his expression was very uncomfortable, could it be that Namur really brought good news? (To be continued.) )
