Chapter 1198: Forceful Pressure
Threat, it's a naked threat! But even if he knew it was a threat, what could King Al Saud?! The reality is that a weak country can only bow its head under the pressure of a strong country.
It's not that King Al Saud doesn't want to clean up these four people, but he has already investigated them before he meets them. The identities and backgrounds of these four people are all real.
In other words, if they want to, they can easily sweep up a storm that has swept through Saudi Arabia. Don't say that these four countries, even one of them, Saudi Arabia, cannot afford it.
This is the sorrow of small countries. And even in the afterlife, how can it not be so?! The war between the United States in Vietnam looked like a contest between the United States and Vietnam.
But in reality, this was a contest between the United States and the Soviet Union and China. The same is true of the U.S. war in Korea. It's just that the place where the two sides fight is placed in a small country.
On the one hand, direct conflict is avoided, and on the other hand, there is a lot of room for maneuver between the two sides. There are actually not many wars in which the big powers really go into battle shirtless and fight each other.
More often than not, there is a war between agents. The great powers support each other's agents, and then let the agents fight each other constantly. And these proxies may be some small African country.
Or maybe it's an Asian or Eastern European country. Of course, such proxy wars sometimes lead to accidents. Georgia, for example, was originally a proxy of the United States.
But he was so self-righteous that he launched a war against Russia without informing the United States. Trying to bring down South Ossetia in a short time.
It's a pity. They did not expect that Russia would react so quickly and so big. It was just a round, and Georgia was defeated before waiting for American reinforcement.
"60% mining rights. So what do I get?! King Al Saud was silent for a while before he said, "Since it's a deal, then we get something in total." ”
"Safety." Mr. Pan, who had not spoken, finally spoke at this time: "Of course you will be beneficial. That benefit is security. ”
"The security of Saudi Arabia, the safety of you and your family. As long as we can continue to mine here, we will try to maintain the stability of the local government. And although we took 60% of the mining rights, don't you still have 40%?! Believe. That's 40% of the mining rights that's enough for you and your family to enjoy your wealth......"
"And that 60% is the price we pay to protect you and your family."
This Mr. Pan paused, and then said with a smile: "This deal is very cost-effective. in the Middle East. If you grew up in troubled times, you must know. A family, a tribe, or even a nation can only decay overnight......"
"But if you and your clan can have four extremely powerful allies, then at least you and your clan will be before we fail. It's all safe, as long as we continue to exist. Then you and your family will be able to maximize your interests......"
King Al-Saud was silent. No one knows the reality of this desert better than he does. Abdul. The Rahman family. It was once the most glorious family on this sandy sea.
But when King Al Saud was ten years old, his family was defeated. The Rashid family, which will occupy Riyadh. He and his father escaped, but were forced into exile ever since.
From Bahrain to Kuwait, King Al Saud has no memory of how much hardship and endless hunting he has endured. But fortunately, he and his family persuaded the Emir of Kuwait to finance them.
This allowed King Al Saud to return to Riyadh with more than 40 relatives and establish the current Third Kingdom of Saudi Arabia. At this time, it coincided with the First World War.
The Emirate of Jebel Shamal, originally founded by the Rashid family, completely decayed after the defeat of its backer, the Ottoman Empire. And at this time. King Al-Saud quickly identified his new patron, the British.
With the covert support of the British, King Al-Saud soon seized vast territory from the decaying Rahi-Technetium family. And what is now the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
The last king of the Rashid family, Mehmed II. Root. Talal. In 1921, he surrendered to King Al-Saud. Since then, the Emirate of Jebel Shamal has entered history. The regional power of the Middle East became the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
"I agree with this proposal, but I want you to be able to train my army. At the very least, I need to have a certain amount of force......," said King Al Saud, who was silent for a while after listening to Mr. Pan's words.
"Here, you may send too many troops. So I still have to take care of the security side, but I can't do this without a strong enough army......"
Mr. Pan and the others exchanged glances, and everyone invariably read a smile in each other's eyes. The king of Al Saud is clearly extremely cunning.
He wants to use the power of other countries to strengthen Saudi Arabia. And the best way to make Saudi Arabia strong is to arm itself with all its might. But does it make sense?!
Even the strongest ant is just an ant after all. Compared to elephants, even if you put on full-body armor on ants, it is impossible to defeat an elephant without any protection.
Perhaps, he will bleed the elephants. But an elephant can leave an ant dead with no place to bury with just one foot.
"Arm us and we'll give you a portion, but we want you to know. In this sea of sand, there is not only Abdul. Rahman is a family. There are still a lot of people here, a lot of families ......."
Mr. Pan smiled and said, "I believe that many of them will come up with better conditions to invite us to be their friends." If you don't want to be our friend anymore, we're sure someone else willingly will......"
King Al Saud's face changed slightly when he heard this, the meaning of the threat in this sentence was too obvious! But King Al Saud did not dare to refute, and he defeated the Rashid family when the Ottoman Empire, the backer of the Rashid family, was broken!
The urgency is that with the help of Britain, King Al-Saud will be able to defeat the Rashid family, who are stronger than him.
So with the support of four world-class powers, can any small family with no name replace its own family?! This is a question that King Al Saud can answer without deep thought.
After a long silence, King Alesat smiled wryly and said, "Can I refuse?!" ”
"Please draw up a contract, and tomorrow I will ......have my Chancellor of the Exchequer and the Secretary of Commerce sign it with you," after a pause, King Al Saud said softly: "And the secret agreement between us, I will personally sign ......"
The king of Al Saud, the four-man room, said this, and then nodded with satisfaction. Laugh and retire from here. And King Al Saud personally sent the four of them out of his palace, and only after returning did he smash all the items in the entire room with a gloomy face!
Amid the sound of porcelain and pottery shattering, the voice of King Al Saud came from the palace: "Go! Shoot that bastard who brought these people to me! Right away! ”
The captain of the guard, who was waiting outside the door, heard the words and immediately rushed out of the palace with his people. After a while, there was a lot of noise on the streets of Riyadh.
The palace guards stormed the home of a large family and killed the owner of the house on the spot. His family was then detained. And Mr. Pan and the others were at the door of the family holding their arms and watching all this happen coldly.
"Pan, aren't we going to take care of it?!" Fergus asked softly as he looked at the poor men and women who were being dragged out wailing incessantly.
"What do you care about them?! It was Al Saud who did it, and now he is much more important to us than this idiot. Mr. Pan sneered and waved his hand, "As for him...... It's just a greedy and death-scared idiot. We needed to save his life when it was useful in the past. ”
"Now that he's useless, why should we offend Al Saud for an idiot?! Anyway, Al Saud is worth a lot more than this greedy fool......"
As he spoke, Mr. Pan glanced at the family members who were being dragged out and kept crying, and said, "Ever since this idiot asked us that he should be the contact between us and Al Saud, I knew that this idiot was dead!" ”
"I don't think he's qualified to be the liaison between us." Mr. Pan said, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Greed is not terrible, what is terrible is blind greed." ”
"There are some money you can't touch, and some power you can't touch. There are some blessings that you can't enjoy. Because these are not yours, you have to get them. A lot of times it's not about enjoyment, it's about dying. Looking at the contact person whose head was beaten into a rotten watermelon, Mr. Pan said coldly: "For example, this idiot ......"
"The money here, even if it's a penny or a penny, is ours. No one is allowed to move. But apparently, some people seem to be still on the verge of ...... "Japan, Tokyo."
In Hirohito's palace, Zhang Xueliang blew the tea in the teacup and said softly: "After a while, the commander-in-chief of our national defense forces will come to Japan to accept your surrender." ”
"And before that, I want you to make some idiots understand. Everything in Japan now belongs to us. If they want to hide something, it won't end well......"
Saying that, Zhang Xueliang looked at Hirohito coldly and said word by word: "Some money is very hot, so I took it." It will burn your palms and burn your whole family......"
"And I don't want that to happen. So they have to know what initiative ......" Zhang Xueliang said, put down the teacup and said softly: "If the commander-in-chief comes, then it will not be so easy for us to talk to each other......
