When Horton's face turned pale, the room fell silent, and several big people didn't even dare to come out. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
They all knew that for safety, Horton had brought a team of mercenaries over and surrounded the manor. These are veterans of the battlefield, some have fought in Iraq and Afghanistan for several years, and the team is led by a special forces from the Green Beret Commando. They are all security personnel of the "Blackwater" company, equipped with very advanced weapons and equipment, and their combat capabilities are no worse than those of the regular army.
After about half a minute, Liu Wei heard the signal sent by Zhou Yulong from outside.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I am not your enemy, and I have been trying to be your friend, but the actions of certain people do make me feel threatened. Out of the instinct of self-preservation, I had to make arrangements and take some necessary precautions. ”
As soon as Liu Wei stood up, the door behind him was pushed open.
There was indeed a group of heavily armed guys rushing in, only not Horton's men, but FOS fighters with camouflage oil on their faces. After they entered the room and guarded the other two doors and windows, Zhou Yulong led a few FOS soldiers to carry the unconscious mercenaries in.
According to Liu Wei's orders, Zhou Yulong and the others did not make a ruthless move.
Seeing this scene, Horton's face turned from iron blue to pale, and several other people also showed a look of fear.
"As you know, I swept Las Vegas in a year, and I took control of Reno and removed all the obstacles that stood in my way. With your wisdom, it is not difficult to imagine that if I didn't have enough strength, I would never have achieved what I am today. Liu Wei nodded at Zhou Yulong and asked him to send the FOS fighters out, leaving only the two of them to watch the mercenaries lying on the floor. I will not take Mr. Houghton's rude behavior to heart, because protecting personal safety and vital interests is a normal behavior for everyone. Besides, Mr. Houghton didn't know me before that, and he didn't know what I was capable of. ”
"Mr. Liu, this is all a misunderstanding." Rogers was the first to come back to his senses, "We don't have any ill will towards Mr. Liu, after all, we ......"
"Mister Rogers, I believe in you, that's why I'm here with you." Liu Wei smiled and said, "I also believe that this is a misunderstanding, Mr. Houghton, what do you say?" ”
Horton was stunned for a moment, and then came back to his senses. Seeing Zhou Yulong standing on the side, he quickly nodded.
The initiative is in Liu Wei's hands, their life and death are decided by Liu Wei, and they can't fight against Liu Wei now.
"So, can we get down to business?"
"Mr. Liu, this ......" Robert glanced at Zhou Yulong and said, "We very much welcome a powerful figure like Mr. Liu to join, but it's just ......"
Liu Wei smiled and waved his hand at Zhou Yulong.
Zhou Yulong and the two FOS fighters didn't say much, and one dragged the two mercenaries out of the room.
"Mr. Liu, you have to know that entering this group depends on more than just strength." When the door closed, Juno said, "We believe in Mr. Liu's strength very much, and we also believe that as long as Mr. Liu is willing, none of us can leave this room alive, but Mr. Liu must know that we are only a small part, and if we die here, it will definitely not be good for Mr. Liu." ”
"Mr. Juno, are you trying to blackmail me, or are you inviting me?"
Juno was stunned for a moment, and after coming into contact with Liu Wei's gaze, he immediately closed his mouth, because he saw that Liu Wei not only had the ability, but also the courage. Although the Skull Party will not let go of any enemy, when it comes to practical issues, if they really want to fall out with Liu Wei, they are the biggest unlucky ghosts.
"Mr. Liu, we've been inviting you." Rogers swallowed, "With Mr. Liu's strength, he is fully qualified to be one of us, but ......"
"Just what?" Liu Wei turned his gaze away.
Rogers hesitated for a moment and said, "It's just that Mr. Liu must convince us that everything you do will not pose a threat to us." ”
"What does Mister Rogers mean is that I have other plans to support Scott's candidacy?"
Rogers didn't speak, but that's exactly what he meant.
Liu Wei smiled and said: "Everyone, I have been emphasizing that I am just a very simple businessman, and my purpose is to make money, support my big family, and those subordinates who follow me to eat, so that they can become rich people and be able to get the respect they deserve like everyone in this room." It is undeniable that I have done some things that many people can hardly imagine in order to achieve this goal, but when it comes to being a threat to you and your country, I believe that it is contrary to the purpose I am pursuing, otherwise I would not have put all my assets in your country. ”
Rogers licked his lips and looked at the others for their opinions.
"Mr. Liu, you know, just these arguments still can't convince us." Anderson took the initiative to stand up, "No matter what, you have to show sincerity. ”
"Mr. Anderson, what counts as sincerity?"
Anderson hesitated for a moment before saying, "Even if we believe that Mr. Liu supports Scott's campaign just to expand the market and make more money, Mr. Liu should let us know that it is like making more money, not just a very general concept." ”
"What you want to know is, how do I make money with Scott?" Liu Wei smiled and said, "Everyone, I believe you all have the answer to this question, otherwise you would not support so many political axe officials and congressmen." I think what you want to know is my vision for the future. ”
Anderson was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
"It is undeniable that Mr. Rogers and Mr. Holden were right at the beginning that after the attack on Manhattan, the situation in the world and the future of the United States changed, and it was irreversible. More than a month has passed, and the Federal Political Axe has still not released information about the attackers, nor has it released any core information. If I'm not mistaken, the Federals still don't know who attacked Manhattan, or who planned it. Unfortunately, it is not only us who are impatient, but also the anxious people and the members of Congress who are afraid that the world will not be chaotic. There is only one reason why the federal political axe has been delayed: the general election is about to begin. Although I have no interest in the politics of your country, and I support Scott's candidacy only for business gain, I don't think the Benjamin Party has a good chance of winning the election, at least not for the vast majority of voters who will not vote for a political axe that lacks the ability to cope with the crisis. Norris's resignation, citing health reasons, is a direct manifestation of the incompetence of the Ming Cook Party. Since there is the problem of political axe change, there is also the problem of policy continuity. In order to maintain the continuity of the policy, Cronin will not make any major decisions before the election is over, but will leave the thorny issue to the next president, or make decisions during his next term. ”
"Mr. Liu, you're not just a businessman." Juno interjected.
"Mister Rogers has said that a successful businessman must know the world's events." Liu Wei smiled and said, "At the latest next year at this time, no matter who lives in the White House, they have to give the people an explanation, and they only have to give the people a very clear goal." Someone must take responsibility for the losses suffered by the United States, and it is necessary to use blood and fire to wash away the shame suffered by the United States through a war. To tell you the truth, before I came here, I had invested almost all of my available money in arms, oil, and commodities. This investment has already helped me make a lot of money, and in the near future, it will help me make even more money. ”
Several guys all looked at Liu Wei, looking a little surprised.
"It's just that, compared to this kind of speculation, if we can use the influence in our hands to steer the United States on the right path, the huge returns we get are the real money-making business. To that end, it is important that we get the next president to adopt our views and at least get the necessary information. ”
"So, Mr. Liu also thinks that war is inevitable?" Horton's face looked much better, probably Liu Wei's words matched his appetite.
"Not only is it inevitable, but the scale will be as large as expected."
"Mr. Liu means ......"
"One World Trade Center has devastated two countries, and this time it was not just one building that fell, but the whole of Manhattan." Liu Wei smiled and said, "I think that if you need to find an opponent, it must be a very weighty opponent, at least a country that has a close relationship with a certain big country." Only in this way can we make this war achieve the goals we want. ”
Hearing this, Horton's brow jumped a few times.
Several other big figures also suddenly understood, and at the same time saw Liu Wei's position clearly.
"Guys, I don't know if my answer satisfies you." Liu Wei paused slightly, got up and said, "I don't mean to hurt you in the slightest. As the saying goes, business is not sincere. If we can't be friends, I hope we don't have enemies. As I said at the beginning, I have no interest in the politics of your country, and I don't intend to do anything other than make money. I just hope that you don't get in my way. ”
"Mr. Liu, can you wait a moment?" With that, Rogers looked over to Horton.
Holden hesitated slightly, then nodded. Several other bigwigs also nodded at Rogers, and they all felt that Liu Wei was a big man worth wooing.
"Mr. Liu, you are still welcome to be one of us, as long as you still regard us as friends."
"Since we have a common purpose, we are friends."
Rogers nodded, got up and walked up to Liu Wei, and said, "Welcome to the Skull Party." ”
Several other bigwigs also came over and congratulated Liu Wei one after another.
It was only at this time that Liu Wei breathed a sigh of relief, because he knew that if he left this room empty-handed, he would become a sworn enemy of the Skeleton Party.
