Chapter 913: People are not easy to cheat now
"Oh, FUCK, boss, are you really going to do this?"
Sanborn, who has arrived in Juba, was being pushed into formal clothes by Xu Chuan and Curtis. They are going to meet the Minister of Mining today.
"You just need not speak and let the business people talk for you." Xu Chuan looked at Sanburn, who had been forced to change his clothes, warned the others in the room not to laugh, "Don't pay attention to these lunatics, believe me, you are in very good condition now."
Sanborn had a bitter face, "Boss, it might be more convincing if you can restrain your expression."
‘I NM’, Xu Chuan cursed directly.
Sanburn is now wearing a black formal outfit and tie around his neck, as well as some accessories such as Rolex watches.
The fitting effect of the clothes is actually pretty good, but Sanborn, who is already used to wearing combat uniforms and other clothes, still feels awkward.
"Hey, man, you look like you're going to get married now." Williams, who was sitting on the side with Sanburn, was about to laugh and lay down.
Xu Chuan stopped Sanborn, who wanted to fight with the other party for 300 rounds, "Don't pay attention to him, let him be your driver today."
"No problem, boss, I will help him open the car door." Williams didn't care at all. This scene was rare, what is it to be a driver?
The meeting between the two sides was in the villa of Minister of Mines Maga. The villa in the northwest corner of Juba city was patrolling around the villa, with at least forty or fifty people, and a checkpoint fifty meters away from the gate. The soldiers here were prepared with automatic weapons and a pickup truck carrying a Deshka heavy machine gun.
Williams drove a Mercedes-Benz business car, Xu Chuan was sitting in the passenger seat, while Sanborn, who pretended to be the head of Umbrella, sat in the back row.
Curtis followed behind in another car, with the Umbrella business department guys.
Behind are two SUVs with eight military personnel on it, and the pomp is absolutely in place.
The soldiers checked their IDs and then confirmed their appointment with the people in the villa, which allowed Xu Chuan and the others to pass the checkpoint.
"Damn, I thought he was the president. Is this security specification a bit exaggerated?" The car drove into the villa's gate, and soldiers were also guarding it. The height of the wall was about three meters and there was a barbed wire on it. I wonder if it was powered on.
The area inside covers a considerable area, with a swimming pool and a very neatly manicured lawn in the yard. There are two three-story concrete buildings, with uniformed servants entering and leaving.
There were guards with guns around the walls and on the roofs, but these men did not seem to be soldiers of the Namjordan, but Umbrella's fellow travelers.
Their car parked at the door of the building on the west side. Williams got out of the cab and quickly helped Sanburn open the door, and placed his left arm on the roof to prevent the other party from touching his head.
"Be careful, sir."
"I'm so fucking thank you." Sanborn replied in a low voice.
Rig Rogers, the director of the business department, got out of the car, stood behind Sanburn, and introduced him to the black man standing at the door, "This is the assistant to the minister of mining, so you don't have to be too polite to them."
A neatly dressed black man stood at the door and saw Rigg Rogers before he came over. There was no way he only knew Rigg.
"This is Mr. Sanburn, the director of Umbrella's affairs in charge of Africa." Regg Rogers introduced to both sides.
The atmosphere between the two sides was very friendly. The assistant let them into the villa. Curtis and other military personnel who pretended to be bodyguards were stopped outside. Xu Chuan followed Sanborn and the others in with his briefcase.
Unlike what Xu Chuan thought, the villa is completely European-style decoration style and is very modern. Xu Chuan thought he would see various African elements, such as crocodiles, lions, elephants, etc., and felt a little disappointed.
A black man with a strong figure and a waist of at least Xu Chuan was waiting in the living room. This guy was wearing a shirt but not wearing a tie. This man should be around forty years old, but it is hard to tell the age of the black man. It was Ma Jia, Minister of Mining in Nanshudan.
"Hi, my friend." He first greeted Rig, then they got to know each other, and then sat down according to the host and guest position. Xu Chuan was wearing a pair of glasses without any degree on his face, and pretended to be an assistant behind Sanborn.
Maga felt very kind to Sanburn's skin color, and he was also a American nationality. "America has helped us a lot, and President Kiel and I are very grateful to our friends for their help."
Sanborn was still a little uncomfortable at first. He just smiled and nodded, but he had seen big scenes and experienced life and death many times, and he quickly adapted to it.
There was nothing special about the subsequent talks. It was mainly because Umbrella made his own request and the other party offered a offer. The previous bargaining process had actually been completed. Now the interview with the person in charge of both parties was to determine the results of these negotiations.
"I thought the boss of Umbrella today would be your Umbrella. To be honest, I'm quite curious about him." Maga told Sanburn about this incident during the chat time later. "Of course we have investigated you, and we have become famous since Yemen, and soon afterwards, he gained a foothold in Libiya. I feel that your boss must be a very interesting person."
The muscles on Sanborn's face were stiff. He really wanted to look back at his boss, but he still held back.
"Yes, he is really interesting and capable. Umbrella's development over the years is inseparable from his correct leadership and leading by example." Sanborn's sweat was all over the place, and he should be right.
Rigg Rogers sat on the other side and almost laughed. This was the most fluent sentence Sanborn said today.
Things were basically settled. The first transaction, Umbrella obtained the mining rights of the Paloic Oilfield District 5/6 in Qionglai Prefecture. This location is near the block where Huaxia Petroleum is located, and it is regarded as the largest oil-producing area in South Sudan.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! However, this is also the most chaotic area. In order to compete for control of the oil-producing area, some oil companies have withdrawn, and Huaxia Petroleum here has also experienced several suspensions and resumption of production.
Whether they can gain a foothold depends on Umbrella himself. As for what they need to pay, they will help the official army train a truly special forces, and help them contact arms dealers to buy heavy weapons such as tanks.
In fact, the latter item is the highlight. Due to the civil war, some countries have imposed an arms embargo on South Sudan. It is difficult for them to transport heavy equipment in whether they have ports or not, but the rebels can obtain arms support from the north.
As for their friend, the Americans' weapons and equipment were too expensive and they couldn't afford it at all. Nan Shu Dan was still used to the AK series rifles and T72 tanks.
As long as UN countries have not reached an agreement on arms embargo, this is not a problem at all. Xu Chuan really wants to ask if you need 59 changes? He can really get this thing.
However, HCLI should have its own purchasing channels. It is quite worth it to exchange those refurbished T72 for an oil field.
Maga demanded that the agreement would take effect only if the first batch of equipment arrived.
It is obvious that they did not trust Umbrella very much, and they were also worried that the other party would make money by nothing. Even the oil field they paid for originally needed Umbrella to get it by themselves.
The two sides signed an agreement on the spot, and the matter was decided, and President Kiel did not show up. This cousin seemed to be able to represent him.
However, Xu Chuan felt that this matter should not be that simple, and something else would definitely happen.
This matter was skipped by the Minister of Oil Lu Er. This guy would definitely not give up, but Xu Chuan didn't have time to guess why he didn't contact Umbrella and could not hang himself on a tree.
After leaving Maga's villa, Xu Chuan, who had recovered his identity, began to tell Rig Rogers of the Ministry of Commerce, "Contact the construction party and build the camp in Qionglaizhou and Juba first."
The oil field is there, and it can’t be escaped anyway. Before all the personnel arrive, they must have at least a place to live. Find a place to build the dormitory with a mobile house, and then build a wall and bunker around it, and then you can wait for the HCLI equipment to be in place.
This plan is not a matter of overnight. It will take at least three months to half a year from the start of construction to the point where it can be used. In addition, HCLI equipment will not be transported in a short while. In this way, it will be more efficient if it gets on track by the end of this year.
Later, we have to survey the site and determine the location of the camp. Xu Chuan feels that he can place the camp next to UN, and then put his office in the city center, or serve as a contact point with Gogol.
Although both sides have their own ideas, they still need to do what they should do. At least it is necessary to have a communication channel before both sides completely turn against each other.
Rigg Rogers wrote down Xu Chuan's request one by one, "Then, boss, who is responsible for the matter here?"
Xu Chuan looked at him and Sanborn who kept shaking his head, "Of course you will be responsible for the specific matters. If someone needs to come forward, let him come and serve as the storefront."
Of course, Sanborn could not be responsible for such a large investment project, but it would be no big problem to hand over the military personnel to him in charge later.
When he returned to the hotel, Casper was still waiting here. Xu Chuan told the other party about the process, "How long will you transport heavy equipment as soon as possible?"
Cassaber's expression was relaxed, "Why do you think I arrived later than you? Koko's cargo ship is almost at the Black Sea. There is a batch of sealed T72s in Bullia, which can be loaded at any time."
He had already thought about what Nanshu Dan lacked the most now, and made the HCLI ship change its route. "But we'd better not transport the tanks directly in. I plan to contact Ethiopia, they have been planning to upgrade their T62 before."
Cassaber intends to exchange T72A sealed by Bulliar for Ethiopian T62. While making a difference, he can directly transport the batch of T62 into Nansu Dan.
Anyway, these Nansudan soldiers who can't even understand the cooperation between Butan and Tan use tanks more as fixed turrets. There is no difference between 62 or 72. It turns out that they are international arms dealers, and they have never suffered any losses in their business.
By this calculation, this batch of heavy equipment doesn't seem to have to pay for Umbrella, because the batch of sealed tanks in Bullia are too cheap, 500,000 yuan per car is cheaper than some cars.
"Their defense funding is declining year by year. The main battle tanks in service are 80 Bullia's own upgraded T72M2. The remaining 300 T72As are all in the sealed state. They don't have the money to maintain, so it's better to sell them." Casper explained.
Of course, it may not be certain if each vehicle costs 500,000 yuan in the end.
"If it's so good, just do it like this. Don't give them too many first batches. 30 units of a battalion are enough. Then order 200 short-volume anti-tank missiles for me. The Nours should need these things very much."
Xu Chuan really hopes that the Dingka people and the Nuer people can live in peace, but it is obvious that this is impossible, and he has no time to help Nanshu Dan handle racial relations, so he can find a way to hold the weapons channels of both sides in his own hands, which can determine to a certain extent how to fight between the two sides, when to fight, and how large the scale of the fight is.
As long as you can intervene in Nanshu Dan, things will be much easier to do later. Not only oil, but also gold and other minerals are rich.
"Boss, Maga's people have retreated." Curtis came back from outside, Maga's people followed them all the way. At this time, they should have known that the HCLI people are here.
Xu Chuan nodded, "Let them send the news back, it will be much better than telling them directly."
People like to believe what they see. If they tell Maga Umbrera directly about the partnership between HCLI, this guy may not necessarily believe it. Now his people take this matter as intelligence and take it back.
Things were basically determined, and then they were determined the location of the camp and found a suitable construction company.
"By the way, your boyfriend Scott, why haven't you seen him these two days?"
Curtis stretched out his middle finger, "He was transferred to Europe by Smith, and he needed manpower there."
"Okay, we're going there soon anyway." After confirming Gogol's purpose, Xu Chuan could finally focus his main energy on the Russians.
There is only one Rig. Rogers here, of course, not, so Xu Chuan could only leave Sanburn here. As for his good partner Williams, this blaster has much more effect than him, but I don't need to tell him about this.
Although Sanborn was not very willing, Xu Chuan decided so. "Sergeant, Albert is recruiting people. I need you to command the combatants here. I believe you can do this mission."
Sanborn grinned, "Boss, if it were when I first joined, I would have been very grateful for your trust, but now, do you think I don't know you are complaining about me in your heart?"
I'm NM, okay, people are not easy to deceive nowadays, Xu Chuan stared at me, "You can do whatever you want, so there's so much nonsense."
