Volume III Aftermath 27 Great Stallion Iben? Saudi
After Kuwait, Situ Nan successively sent representatives to buy a large amount of land in Iran, Iraq, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and other regions, although the cost of each time was not much, but it added up to millions of dollars
Looking at those long lists, Lin Yimin had a headache. A few million dollars is just a drizzle for Situ Nan, but the whole Middle East is a desert, is it difficult to buy them all? Even if you buy it, it has nothing but a pile of sand?
"Young Master, is it too much?" Lin Yimin couldn't help asking. I always feel that it is not worth it to continue to spend so much money to buy those barren deserts.
"I said yes, then there was."
Situ Nan said confidently, looking at Lin Yimi, who was still a little skeptical, and explained, "Although it has not been confirmed, it is certain that there is oil under this desert, and the British have already opened a lot of oil fields in Iran?" This shows that there is oil in this area.
If we hadn't done it sooner, this place would have been snatched up by the British sooner or later. It's just a big deal to lose a little money. It's a pity that we can't organize a team to explore now, otherwise we wouldn't have to cast a net everywhere like this. ”
Situ Nan looked a little regretful, but he was overjoyed.
In addition to oil, the Middle East is also rich in copper, iron, coal and other resources, which are worth investing in. Situ Nan is planning to set up a mining investment company in Bahrain, and is ready to secretly explore the oil fields he bought in the name of the mining company for future plans.
Lin Yimin looked at Situ Nan with a smile on his lips, thinking that this young master might have thought of some "conspiracy", he sighed slightly in his heart, and always felt that Situ Nan was too demonic.
The more time he spent with Situ Nan, the more Lin Yimin knew, the more surprise he felt in his heart. Although Situ Nan has some strange years from time to time, the implementation often brings unexpected results.
After a while, Lin Yimin reported another matter: "Young master, I have contacted the Saudi family, they are quite interested in us, their representative has come to Kuwait, do you want to meet them?" ”。
"Who's the other party?" Situ Nan asked.
"I don't know, it could be the upper echelons of the Najd Kingdom." Lin Yimin was far away, and the William Consortium and the Nanyang Foundation had no contact with the Middle East, and he did not know much about the shape of the Arabian Peninsula.
After a few days, Lin Yimin collected a lot of information about Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, and finally got some understanding of the various forces along the Persian Gulf coast.
Situ Nan knew a lot, but it was inconvenient for him to reveal it to Lin Yimin. Even if it's the closest people, there are some secrets that can't be shared??????
World War I completely pushed the Ottoman Empire into the Arabian Peninsula, which was once one of the Turkish possessions, and is now divided into three powers: the kingdom of Najd dominated by the House of Saud in the east, the Kingdom of Hejaz dominated by the Hashemite family in the west, and the House of Rashid in the north.
This is a Romance of the Three Kingdoms on the Arabian Peninsula, in which the grievances and hatreds have lasted for hundreds of years, and it is impossible to talk about it for three days and three nights.
Among them, the most powerful is the kingdom of Najd of the House of Saud, which has risen and fallen several times in just two or three hundred years, and has been destroyed twice. Under the leadership of Saudi Arabia, the kingdom of Najd is thriving and most likely to dominate the Arabian Peninsula.
The strength of the Hejaz kingdom in the west, dominated by the Hayim family, is also not to be underestimated, because the family name Haym is the most noble family in the entire Arab world, and their ancestors are Muhammad, the founder of Islam
The Al Khaim family still rules over important regions such as Iraq, Jordan, and the Hejaz kingdoms, and even the holy city of Mecca in Islam is under this family's rule, and it can be said that this family has become a behemoth after thousands of years of reproduction.
The weakest are the Rashid family in the north. The Rashid family is based on the Rashid tribe, which was once powerful under the support of the Turkish Ottoman Empire, and now because they sided on the wrong side in World War I and suffered together with their master, the Turkish Ottoman Empire, they have been suppressed by Britain and France, and their strength is weakening day by day.
This part of the Middle East is very strange, there are no nations, there are no political parties, and the tradition of theocracy has been followed for thousands of years, so the competition between these three different forces is also a competition between different sects of Islam.
Shia, Sunni or some Waha'i, although it seems solemn to the Muslims, Situ Nan does not care about this.
All he knew was that there were three groups of people fighting, and he was going to do business with some of them, each taking what he wanted, Situ Nan got the oil fields, and those Arab forces got the money or weapons and won.
The pirates William Ha encountered on his way to Kuwait were the result of the perennial war between the three families, but the weapons he later seized from the pirates disdained Situ Nan, who deduced that the three powers on the Arabian Peninsula were not very wealthy. As long as you provide advanced American-made products, I believe they will be tempted.
Just as Situ Nan and Lin Yimin were talking on the William, at the dock of Kuwait Harbor, a man in a clean white robe was looking at the William anchored in the harbor, as if he was pondering something.
He was wrapped in a traditional Islamic headscarf, a turban made of silk and embroidered with ornate patterns, which made him look magnificent.
The face of the thirty or forty-year-old looks mature and steady, and the restrained eyes are slightly vicissitudes, and occasionally there is a flash of fine light,
This is Ibn the king of the kingdom of Najd? Saud, an ambitious man, wants to conquer the Arabian Peninsula in order to recreate the glory of his ancestors.
He received a report from the Kuwaiti side that a mysterious group of Americans had approached the Saud family, and the Americans also hinted that it was a deal of hundreds of thousands of dollars.
The Saudi family has a lot of influence in Kuwait, the Saudi family has risen and fallen several times, and every time they flee, they will choose Kuwait. The Saudis sneaked back to the capital Riyadh from Kuwait with dozens of soldiers and risked regaining power through Guò.
It is not an exaggeration to call Kuwait the second nest of the Saudi family, and the wind and grass here cannot be hidden from the Saudi family. The news that Lin Yimin proposed to contact the Saudi family soon spread to Ibn ? Saudi Arabia there.
At present, the Romance of the Three Kingdoms of the Arabian Peninsula, although the FF8 Najd Kingdom controlled by the Saudi family is the strongest and most promising to unify the Saudi region, the Emperor British obviously do not want to see a gradually stronger Saudi Arabia. Saudi Arabia is not as supportive as it was at the beginning, and it is bent on maintaining Saudi Arabia's division in order to profit from it.
The goodwill sent by the William made Ibn ? Realizing that this was an opportunity, the Saudis secretly rushed to Kuwait. If the support of the United States can be obtained, then there is hope for the unification of Saudi Arabia.
"That's what you call rich Americans?" Ibn? Saudi asked a similarly dressed young man next to him. It was his son, Haji, who was also the representative of the House of Saud in Kuwait.
"Yes. They were very generous and bought a lot of land, supposedly to build it. I've been on that boat, but it's very imposing inside. According to the British, the other side is very influential in the United States. I just don't know why I came here? Haji replied respectfully.
For this decisive father, Haji was shocked and frightened by his father Ibn in 1902? The Saudis set out from Kuwait with 40 warriors and traveled thousands of miles to kill the officials of the Rashid family in Riyadh, thus laying the foundation for the rise of the Saudi family.
This is a legend, even his grandfather, the patriarch of the Saudi family at that time, had to give up his position to his father Ibn ? The Saudis are in power.
What made Haji even more envious was that his father Ibn? Saudi Arabia has a huge harem, more than 50 wives, and has given birth to 24 children. Haji was the eldest of them all, and he was bent on doing something to show the great father.
What Haji didn't know was that his father was far greater than he could have imagined, and that his father Ibn was in order to marry the tribes. Saudi Arabia married more than 300 brides in his lifetime, gave birth to 43 sons, and countless daughters. As a result, the largest royal family in the world was formed a few decades later, with more than 5,000 members, making the men who later generations claimed to be stallions ashamed
It's a bit of a stretch, let's get down to business.
When night falls, Ibn? Saudi Arabia quietly boarded the William with a team of fierce scimitar warriors.
"Mr. Haji, you're here" Lin Yimin greeted Haji, and when he saw Haji and the others centered on a strange man, he couldn't help asking, "Who is this?" ”
"My father, Ibn King of Najd? Saudi. Haji said proudly.
"Oh? Your Majesty, Hello, welcome to the William" Lin Yimin bowed down and said hello, thinking that there was indeed a big man coming.
Ibn? Sha Ming nodded, looked at Lin Yimin, who was neither humble nor arrogant, and said in his heart: "This is an American? It should be Chinese or Japanese, right? But he's really young."
Ibn? Saudi Arabia followed behind Lin Yimin, looking at the William, secretly surprised in his heart, the owner of this ship has extraordinary financial resources
Ibn? Saudi Arabia couldn't help but put away its contempt. When he walked into Situ Nan's office, Ibn? The samurai brought by the Saudis and the bodyguards on board had a conflict.
The words were incomprehensible, and the two sides chattered and talked about each other, and Han Gang just refused to let those warriors enter Situ Nan's office.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Haji, let your people wait outside, our young master won't see too many people." Lin Yimin said, his attitude was extremely resolute.
Ibn? Shatt nodded and walked on, curious about what kind of person the owner of the ship was.
Just now he learned that outsiders thought that the owner of the William was not Lin Yimin, but someone else.
An Arab warrior saw Ibn? Saudi Arabia entered, and he was in a hurry, so he took a step forward, but was blocked back by Han Gang, so he angrily held the hilt of the knife, ready to draw the knife and face each other.
It's too late, it's too soon. Seeing that the samurai was about to draw his sword, was this worth it? Han Gang flicked his wrist, and a pistol suddenly appeared in his hand, pointing at the warrior's forehead.
As soon as the action came out, the security personnel on both sides took out their pistols and pointed them at each other, almost fighting on the spot
Ibn? Saud calmly shouted at the impulsive warriors, who retreated in a huff to save themselves from a catastrophe.
"Please come with me, Your Majesty the King" Lin Yimin breathed a sigh of relief, and looked back at Han Gang with some reproach.
This guy dared to pull out a gun at the young master's door, it was too impulsive
"You are Ibn? Saudi? ”
&nf9absp;"You're the owner of the ship?" ”
As soon as they met, Situ Nan and Ibn? Saudi Arabia said almost at the same time.
After speaking, the two smiled knowingly, and said in their hearts: It turns out that the other party is also a person who is used to giving commands, and only in this way will he seize the initiative in the conversation.
After some pleasantries, Situ Nan suddenly said something to let Iben? Saudi Arabia's moving words - "I can make you the king of Saudi Arabia, the only king"
