"Mr. Meyers is right, we don't attack our friends."
Following the sound, a man with a mustache in military uniform walked out of the house.
This man was"Mr. Izzat" who invited Martin to come over and was responsible for presiding over the oil field transaction.
This"Mr. Izzat" was not a simple man. Character, this person's full name is: Izzat Ibrahim Duli, born in the village of Dur near the northern city of Tikrit in Iraq - yes, the same hometown as Saddam.
He was previously The number two figure in the Iraqi government was later ranked sixth on America's"Poker Wanted List."
This guy was a die-hard loyalist to Saddam. After Saddam was captured by the US military, this guy led the remnants The army continued to fight the American and British coalition forces in a guerrilla manner - resulting in more than 3,000 casualties of the British and American coalition forces.
Until April 2015, while commanding the guerrillas in the battle east of Tikrit, the capital of Salahuddin Province, this was hit by a stray bullet and died. He was 73 years old at the time.
In order to confirm his death, the US military even conducted a DNA test, and finally confirmed that the leader of the Iraqi"rebel" who had been fighting with the US military for 12 years was dead.
Martin's He doesn't have this episode in his memory, so he doesn't know how this man would have caused headaches to the American and British coalition forces in the original timeline.
In his eyes, this Mr. Izzat was a thin man of medium height, about sixty years old, with the upper lip above his lips. He has a brown beard and looks tired, but his eyes are very bright.
This is a strong-willed guy!
Martin is very accurate in reading people.
"Hello Mr. Izzat, we may have attracted some people’s attention when we came here just now. Is it relevant?"
Martin told Izzat everything about his previous encounter with the"Islamic State" organization and being followed.
After hearing this, Izzat smiled easily and said,"Don't worry, those guys are not. They will betray us, they hate the West more than we do.
Martin said:"But if they know that you sold Iraq's largest oil field to the West, I'm afraid it will be detrimental to you and me.".?"
Izzat shook his head,"They still won't harm us, but you——"
Izzat showed a meaningful smile,"I can't guarantee it."
While speaking, this person kept staring at Martin.
But unexpectedly, he could not see any fear or nervousness on the face of this young and over-the-top American. He couldn't help but asked in surprise:"Aren't you afraid?"
Martin smiled and said:"Mr. Izzat, this is A deal worth four billion dollars, you're not going to let anything happen to me and my companions, are you?"
"You are such a smart young man. I'm sorry, I shouldn't have scared you just now. Izzat patted Martin on the shoulder and apologized for his bad taste.
Martin said:"There's no need to apologize. You didn't scare me. Let's talk about business.""
"Okay, let’s go inside and chat!"
As Izzat walked into the house, Martin discovered that there were still several people in the house, looking at Martin with different eyes - some with expectation, some with disgust, and some with a look of indifference...
Yi Zaat introduced Martin casually.
This room is full of senior officials of the former Iraqi government who have escaped, and those who can sit here are all people trusted by Saddam.
After an introduction, the room One of them suddenly said:"Izzat, I still don't agree to sell the oil fields to the Americans. This is subsidizing the enemy!
Another person said:"America is not monolithic. As far as I know, Mr. Meyers is anti-war and has a bad relationship with George W. Bush.""
"But he is still American!"The man before said stubbornly.
An older man said:"Right now, besides the Americans, do you think there are any other oil companies who dare to take over our oil fields?"
As soon as he said this, the first guy who spoke fell silent. The older official was right. They had spread the news through the Middle East countries until now, except for Martin's Campbell Oil Company, no other company had contacted them.
Martin did not expect this. He thought he would encounter a lot of competition, but he did not expect that now his family is in contact with the former Iraqi government. It can only be said that the United States is indeed in a prosperous position now, and everyone is still relatively Terrified.
The older official continued:"The BP Oil Company in England went directly to cooperate with the Texas Petroleum Group. You don't know what the Texas Petroleum Group is, right? That is the real enemy!!!"
When this person finished speaking, Izzat put his hands on his hips and looked around the room majestically,"No one has any objections now, right?"
After waiting for a while, no one spoke up again.
Izzat nodded,"Very good, then let's talk about the oil field transaction.
Martin smiled and said,"Then let's talk.""
Both parties have no objections to the price.
Of course, Iraq knows that the price of US$4 billion is a fire sale, but it is difficult to sell it at a higher price in a hurry.
Even at the price of US$4 billion, hundreds of millions of dollars in this world are Ninety percent of the companies may not be able to spend it.
Not even the Texas Petroleum Group.
It’s not that there is no money, but it takes time to raise so much funds. (To read Baoshuang novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)
Who would save so much money in the bank these days?
That is Martin, who just made a fortune!
In fact, these former members of the Iraqi government are more concerned about political asylum.
They know that they cannot fight this war Win, hoping to find a way out.
Martin said:"'What countries have you looked for?"
Izzat said:"We have been in contact with Russia, China and other countries, and they rejected our asylum application. These are probably the only two major countries in the world that can resist the United States! Iran is willing, but——"
Izzat shook his head and did not continue.
Martin could guess that when they entered Iran, they would probably be swallowed up to the bone. Don’t get me wrong
, this didn’t refer to their lives, but to the property, troops, weapons, and even the assets they controlled in the Middle East. Political influence and connections.
However, Martin did not expect that the other party (Wang Zhaohao) had already contacted China and was rejected.
In Martin's view, this time is actually an opportunity. If China can protect this group of people, not only will its international reputation skyrocket, but it will also be able to take this opportunity to gain access to several major oil fields in Iraq.
But having the memory of Hua Xia Martin, he quickly understood Hua Xia's concerns.
At this time, China had illusions about the United States and had been committed to making the relationship between the two sides closer. It even made concessions on many things. After being provoked by the other party (the bombing of an embassy), it still chose to tolerate it.
If China wants to acquire oil fields in Iraq, it will inevitably need to station troops. This is likely to cause conflicts or even military confrontation between the United States and China, which China does not want to see now.
Martin hesitated and said,"Can I make a call first?"[]
Izzat nodded and said:"Please do it."
(Brothers, please take care of me. Please give me some comments, flowers, collections, and rewards. Thank you.)
