"What you said is true?"

After Paulson whispered a few words in his ear, Elian . . . Prince's pupils suddenly shrank, and he turned to look at Zhong Shi excitedly, his lips trembling, "John said, you have a way to help us solve the current trouble, is it true?" ”

Blackwater has already paid a great price for the massacre of civilians in Iraq, first having its law enforcement license revoked in Iraq and losing a lot of business; Later, because of the bad influence, he was forced to change the name of the company; And then Erian. Prince himself had to resign as CEO and remain chairman of the board.

Even so, the law enforcement agencies in the United States still do not give up on them, and the investigation and accusations against them are still going on even after two years, and they are planning to beat Blackwater to death with a stick.

To add insult to injury, Elian. Prince maintains good personal relations with the family of the former president of the United States, and he himself and Blackwater are among the diehards of the Republican Party. Now that the president of the Democratic Party has come to power, the intention of suppressing them is very strong. Even if they have connections on Capitol Hill, it's not just the president who is now Democratic, but even the majority of congressional seats are controlled by Democrats, so their relationship is not enough to help them solve the problem.

Now that Bell Stone says he has a way to solve this problem, naturally let Elian . Prince was overjoyed.

"Not bad!"

Zhong Shi agreed, but after looking at the other party deeply, he said with a smile, "Mr. Prince, relax a little first, what do you think you can give in return if I can help you solve this problem?" ”

The situation was immediately reversed, and the party that was originally asking became the party being pleaded. Zhong Shi naturally wanted to talk about new conditions.

“……”

For this repetition of Bell Stone, Elion. Prince was actually very helpless in his heart, but he knew that the current initiative was already in the hands of the other party, so he had to lower his posture and plead in a low voice, "Sir." You can take a seat, we have something to say. ”

The other party's temper, Zhong Shi has almost touched it. For a person with a deep military imprint on his body, it is not easy to do this, so he no longer cares about it, and sits down calmly.

"In addition to the conditions just now, I am willing to pay another $1 million!"

After a long silence, Erian. Prince frowned and said, "Of course. How about the previously agreed terms all for free, including training for your friends? ”

"Do you see how I look like I'm short of money?"

Zhong Shi took out the cigarette case from his arms, signaled to the other party, and then generously lit a cigarette, swallowed the clouds and spit out the fog for a long time, and then shook his head slightly and said. "Relax, Mr. Prince. Since I'm still here, it proves that I still have the will to continue talking. ”

"And what exactly do you want?"

Erlian. Prince scratched his ears and cheeks in a hurry, eager to reach an agreement with Zhong Shi immediately, he was so distraught that he even lost his due measure, "As long as we can do it." There is room for negotiation. ”

He finally kept his cool and didn't admit casually.

"It's actually quite simple!"

Seeing that the beating was almost over, Zhong Shi no longer continued to grind the other party, and said bluntly, "Actually, it's about cooperative training." This is not a problem, and it is not within the scope of our discussion, and we will not give you a penny less than the money that should be paid. The point is what I have on this document, and as long as you can do it to my satisfaction, I will not only help you solve your problems, but also pay you a large sum of money. ”

"This again?"

Erlian. Prince hesitated for a long time, then asked tentatively, "Mr. Zhong, can I know what you want to do?" ”

"This ......"

Zhong Shi smiled and didn't answer directly, just said vaguely, "No matter what, it won't be what you think." You know, we're just businessmen, not conspirators! ”

"But shouldn't this be more appropriate for the CIA?"

Prince still didn't give up, and continued to ask, "Compared to the CIA, we can only be regarded as a handicraft workshop here, and neither the experience of agents nor the analytical ability of intelligence officers can be compared with the other party. Since you have connections in the White House, why not use the power there? You know, this kind of thing is just a trivial matter for them, because this is what they do all year round. ”

"Don't you know the reason, Mr. Prince?"

Zhong Shi glanced at the other party with a smile and said lightly, "Isn't the original intention of the establishment of Blackwater Company to help the government solve some troubles that they are inconvenient to solve?" Do you think it's convenient for the CIA to get ahead of this? ”

"That's just as well!"

Erlian. Prince nodded in realization, "In that case, I can agree for the time being." But I also want a guarantee, or let me see if you can really help us solve this matter of the Ministry of Justice. ”

"Deal!"

The other party didn't think too much about it, it was obvious that Prince had already evaluated it in his heart before this, and now that he had a suitable quid pro quo, he agreed almost without hesitation, and now it was time for Zhong Shi to show his sincerity, and at the moment he bowed slightly to Paulson, and Paulson quickly took out the phone in his arms.

For this detail, Prince saw it all in his eyes, and immediately his pupils shrank suddenly. One can put John. Paulson's people are not as simple as they seem.

Who is Paulson? That is a figure who has been calling for wind and rain in the US capital market in recent years.

As soon as he thought of this, his heart became eager, and he seemed to see hope for the solution of the trouble.

It didn't take long for Paulson to hang up the phone and whisper a few words in Zhong Shi's ear.

"What's wrong?"

Erlian. Prince stared at the two of them, hoping to see something on their faces. But unfortunately, both of them had blank faces, and they couldn't see any expression fluctuations at all, which made him have to ask, "What did the other party say?" ”

"Don't be impatient!"

Zhong Shi waved his hand slightly at him, signaling not to speak. Then he bowed his head and whispered something to Paulson, and after a while, he raised his head and said to Prince, "We are told that this matter will be reported to the highest level, so let's wait patiently." ”

He said. He pointed upwards with his finger.

"Is it the president?"

Prince blurted out, but the next moment he kept his mouth shut, but his heart was horrified. A phone call from the other party can actually alarm the White House, what kind of guys are these guys?

Several people had different thoughts, and they didn't mean to talk for the next ten minutes, just patiently drinking red wine and smoking cigars, quietly waiting for the phone to arrive.

"Bell bell bell ......"

Soon, a call with no number displayed reached Zhongshi's mobile phone. He looked at the number, and then at the people who were waiting left and right, and then he picked up the phone in an orderly manner.

"Hey, is it Mr. Zhong Shi Zhong?"

A deep male voice sounded from the microphone, "I'm Mr. President's special assistant, Andrew. Klein. ”

"It's me!"

Zhong Shi replied unhurriedly, "Glad to receive your call, Mr. Crane!" ”

Although I didn't hear the introduction on the phone. But Erian . Prince still guessed the identity of the other party through Zhong Shi's name. In fact, for the key figures in Washington. He knows it all by heart. And this Andrew. Mr. Klein is the current president's absolute confidant and one of the most important aides. Even when the president was a senator, Klein was the most important member of his team.

Since this person called in person, it means that Mr. President already knows the whole thing. I don't know why, Eryan. Prince suddenly breathed a sigh of relief. Now he could be sure that Zhong Shi was not lying.

"Listen, your demands are already known, Mr. President!"

Andrew on the phone. "Mr. President doesn't have the power to interfere with the judiciary," Klein said cautiously, but we can intervene in this matter by instructing Congress." Either way, Blackwater must learn its lesson. It could be a fine of money, or it could be a suspension of the license for a period of time, etc., which is our bottom line. ”

"Understood!"

Zhong Shi nodded frequently, "Do you need me to do anything?" ”

"What you are doing now, Mr. President is very satisfied!"

Andrew. Klein smiled, "Not in general, but very satisfied." It's a pity that you're not a U.S. citizen, otherwise Mr. President would have personally honored you. But...... But so far, it hasn't had the desired effect, has it? ”

He nodded lightly, naturally urging Zhong Shi to speed up the process.

"This ......"

Zhong Shi hesitated for a moment, but finally couldn't help but retort, "Now the European side has been vigilant, so we have to be vigilant for a while." But it doesn't matter, the next time is the time of fermentation, and when we wait until the next time we have an attack, the effect will be much more ferocious than now. Mr. President should be a little more patient, after all, his term has only just begun, and there is still plenty of time to see the results, right? ”

He also stabbed back lightly, implying that the other party was too anxious.

"Haha......"

To Zhong Shi's surprise, this name is Andrew. Crane's people didn't get angry, but laughed out loud, "You deserve to be a big player, you dare to talk to me like this." Do you know who I represent now? I'm representing the President! ”

"I don't care who you represent, I just know that the equivalent exchange is fair trade!"

Zhong Shi replied lightly, "I believe that even the president can't escape this rule, right?" ”

"You're right!"

The other party's laughter stopped abruptly and changed to a deep and serious voice, "I promise this on behalf of Mr. President, and besides, don't forget what you promised us." ”

Although Zhong Shi did not promise them anything, Zhong Shi knew very well in his heart that this kind of thing would not be put into words, nor would it be written on paper, all of which could only be tacit by both parties.

"By the way, the chairman of the Blackwater, Elian . Prince is right by my side, do you need to have a few words with him to clear his doubts? ”

After nodding silently, Zhong Shi proposed, "This is about my credibility!" ”

"Who wouldn't trust you? Who would dare to breach the contract on us? ”

Crane muttered quietly, and then said to Bell Stone, "Turn on the speakerphone, I'll mention him a few words." ”

"Erian. Prince? ”

After Zhong Shi put the phone on the coffee table and turned on the speakerphone, Elian. Prince cautiously leaned in, hesitated for a long time, and couldn't say a word, but fortunately, the other party seemed to be aware of this situation, and took the initiative to ask, "I heard that you want to make a deal with the Tianyu Fund?" ”

"Yes, yes!"

Erlian. Prince nodded like garlic while cautiously asking, "Excuse me, you are Andrew. Mr. Klein? The one next to Mr. President? ”

"Of course it's me!"

Andrew. Klein Lai replied beamingly, "I already know everything you said. Rest assured, there will always be a solution to things, as long as you do what Mr. Zhong Shi explained, understand? ”

"Understood, understood!"

Erlian. Prince nodded again, cautious and overjoyed, the muscles on his face shaking with excitement.

"That's it!"

Doesn't seem to want to say anything more to the other person, Andrew. Klein just said that and hung up the phone decisively. (To be continued.) )
