Chapter 115, The Key
For the people of Basra, when Hazem was hanged, all their grievances were vented, and a great sense of refreshment came from the prophet's unwavering order to hang, as if to tell them that no one can bully you with me, not the Americans, not the Baath Party, not the Iranians.
This move also shocked the high-ranking officials in Basra, but offended Russia and China, as well as Iran, and at the moment when the hanging was announced, Vivien suddenly understood why Canglong would say that the war was not over at the end of the war, because they had offended Iran miserably.
After the hanging, the city of Basra held a carnival to celebrate the victory of the war, but they did not know the pressure that Canglong was under to give this order, first of all, Wan Zeliang came to his office angrily and told Canglong to stop the war loan, and everything that was about to happen here had nothing to do with China.
He was followed by Nikolav, who spoke politely, protesting against the actions of the dragons, and at the same time announcing the cessation of the supply of war materials to Basra, as well as all the weapons needed.
And Canglong didn't say too much that he was paying the price for his actions, but despite this, he didn't regret it, the only consolation was that the high-ranking officials of Basra came to apologize, and only Vivien came up with a list of Basra's current financial situation.
This was telling him that if he continued to fight, Basra's economy would collapse.
Canglong sat alone in the office, looking at the setting sun outside, I don't know what he was thinking, after a while, Su Su knocked on the door and came in, and before he could speak, Canglong said without replying: "Do you think I did it wrong?" ”
"It's a pleasure." Su Su replied, "You have earned everything, but you have forgotten that we do not have absolute strength against Iran now." ”
"Mean, I'm stupid, right?" Canglong turned around and asked.
"Don't dare, but we really should accept it when we see it, we can't afford to continue to fight, and when the time comes, the fundamental problem may not be solved, and it will be difficult to retreat." Su Su said calmly.
"When I come here, I have no way out." Canglong said with a wry smile.
Su Su was stunned for a moment, thought of their situation, and finally said: "Neither are we, since we left the prison and were pitted by you, we don't seem to have a way out, but I believe in you." ”
Canglong smiled and expressed his relief, but before he could last this relief for a few minutes, Su Su gave him a document and said, "This is Iran's movement." ”
Looking at the content of the intelligence, Canglong's face was very bad, the Iranian Navy had completely blocked Basra's access to the sea, and now not to mention oil tankers, even fishing boats would not want to go out, and the Iranian Navy also demonstratively carried out a five-hour artillery bombardment of Faw Port.
Of course, there is no one in Faou Harbor, but the Iranians are doing this to tell Canglong that they are angry, very angry, and when we clean up the president, you will wait to be retaliated against.
"Have military advisers and technical experts withdrawn?" Canglong asked, putting the document aside.
"No, but I'm afraid there are really no weapons and loans." Su Su said.
"So the Russian military hasn't done a death shot at us, it's just a warning." Canglong said with a smile, "Obviously, the Russians don't buy the Iranians' battles, and our status is at least much higher than that of Iran, but the Russians definitely want to teach us a lesson this time, let us be honest, and listen to them in the future." ”
Su Su nodded, the Russians' intentions are indeed here, it won't be long before the Russians will definitely continue to provide them with weapons, but they must wait for them to suffer some losses: "To the top, this time it is really a big fire, Wan Zeliang must have added fuel and vinegar to report what happened here, so far there is no instruction from above, Wan Zeliang has not been looking for us, this is the most terrible, the silence above means that the sanctions will be implemented to the end." ”
Canglong didn't care: "After all, Iran has been in oil for a long time, and it has signed a contract with Iran for more than 100 billion, so it must be unwilling to offend Iran." ”
As the acting president of Longteng International, he naturally knows how important Iran's oil is to China, and it can be said that as long as Iran is not collapsed by the United States, it is a stable base for providing oil to China, and the importance of Basra is still very small compared to Iran, and the above must have abandoned him as a matter of course.
One is a fixed stock, the other is a potential stock, anyone will choose a fixed stock, and the potential stock can be discarded at any time before it can exert its potential.
"So what do we do now?" Su Su didn't have a rut this time.
"If we have money, all the problems will be solved, as long as we have money, the sanctions of the Russians will not last long, and the Russians will lack this thing the most." Canglong said with a smile, "As long as the problem on the Russians' side is solved, I don't care if the Chinese side borrows or not, and I haven't counted on them anyway." ”
"But the problem is that we don't have money now, and what we lack most is money." Su Su's face was bitter, "Can you still conjure up money out of thin air?" ”
"Note to the Emirati Consul that I want to make a secret visit to Dubai." Canglong said.
But Su Su shook his head and handed him a piece of information: "This is a note sent by the consuls of various countries, you have offended people this time, and Dubai is afraid that you will go to ask for money, so you are the first to send a note." ”
Canglong looked at it, it was really like this, thinking of Hamulette's budget-conscious guy, Canglong's heart was on fire, when Nima was not good, but at this time he dragged me back, but his anger was only for a while, and soon he forgave Hamulet, after all, there is still a family to support.
Now no one can be relied on, so you can only rely on yourself, but now you don't have much money, and you still owe a lot of debts to the Russians, your own private money is trapped in the intelligence network, and the meat buns beat those dogs in Baghdad, for the first time, Canglong realized that it takes money to do business, a person's small business needs money, and it takes money to manage a country's big business.
Finally, after thinking about it, he suddenly had an idea and thought of something, so he immediately said to Su Su: "I am going to leave Basra for a few days, and if the Iranians dare to invade in, I will fight back at all costs, understand?" ”
Su Su was stunned for a moment, but said suspiciously: "Head, you're not planning to run away, are you?" ”
Canglong's face was cold: "Do you think you look like the kind of person who retreats when you encounter difficulties?" ”
"That's not for sure, after all, at this juncture, maybe you will let go and run away, let us be the quilt, no matter how bad you are, you can go back to be your second generation official, and if you can't do it, you will be a killer, what about us?" Su Su looked aggrieved.
"Okay, okay, I'm going to get money, and I'll be back in a month at the latest." Canglong said, "You hold out for a month." ”
Hearing this, Su Su calculated, and then promised: "Just one month, don't cheat us." ”
"Alright, you get ready." Canglong said, "Remember, don't mention the matter of my departure to anyone, so as not to shake the morale of the army, if someone wants to see me, you can watch and deal with it, if someone wants to rebel, kill it." ”
Su Su nodded, and then left to arrange the route for Canglong to leave the country, he was surprised that Canglong did not go back to China this time, nor did he go to Dubai, but went to Africa. Head, are you crazy?
Of course, Canglong did not go crazy, and after leaving Basra, he secretly traveled to Kuwait, where he took the plane to South Africa.
South Africa, a country famous for diamonds, was once upon a time also the object of competition among Western countries, but unfortunately the South African people are not stupid, after the emergence of the great leader Mandela, South Africa finally became independent after many years of struggle, and became one of the richest countries in Africa.
Of course, Canglong came here, not to have anything to do with Mandela, on the contrary, in addition to admiring this leader, Canglong has nothing to do with him, and came to South Africa just to go to another small country in Africa, this small country is the real barren land, which has been in war for a long time.
However, the small country with no oil, no diamonds, and no gold has changed in recent years, the war has ended, and a stable regime has been established, and of course no one has time to care about the stable regime that this small country has built, because there is really nothing to be gained here.
But the discerning person can still see that the political power of this country was established by the old forces of the new century, and the reason why they say so is because they are called "neo-Nazis".
Canglong doesn't have a good impression of this group of people, but he doesn't dislike it, at least this time he came here for money, remember that when he was in Israel, King Christine of David asked Canglong to help him kill the "neo-Nazi" leader Erwin, Canglong completed his task very well and signed an agreement with Erwin, when Alwin gave him a key.
But he didn't know which old bank's safe this key could open, so he came here to find the person he let go, to find out which bank the key belonged to, and by the way, to see how their business was doing.
To Canglong's surprise, when he arrived in this country, he found that it was not the chaos he had imagined, on the contrary, the people here gave him a feeling of extreme horror, and the reason why they said this was entirely because of the fanaticism in their eyes, which was not the frenzy of hope in the eyes of the people of Basra, but a frenzy of destruction, as if they were always ready to destroy the world.
Of course, whether they destroy the world or not has nothing to do with Canglong, he just wants to ask about the situation, and then quickly leave here, completely dissociating himself from this group of people.
It's just that he didn't expect that his trip this time was not destined to be so easy
