Qin Fei and Lao Yu turned their attention to Rhodes.
Rhodes shrugged: "The people I deal with are all dignitaries and nobles from all over the world. They have money, so they are willing to spend money to buy security. Some small countries even need various military services, so I can
Let me promote it for you."
"Thank you very much," said the old fish.
"There is no need to thank me." Rhodes said: "Actually, you are already very famous for this mission. I believe that as long as you decide to do it yourself, many people will want to hire you."
The three of them chatted in the room for a while. Rhodes received a call saying that he was in an emergency and got up to leave.
Before leaving, Rhodes' eyes fell on Qin Fei's diamond mining rights confirmation document, and he couldn't help but ask: "Qin, are you planning to sell this mine?"
Qin Fei glanced at the document, picked it up, looked at it and said, "Are you interested in him?"
Rhodes smiled and said, "I'm interested in anything related to gems. Of course, I won't take it for free and will give you a good price."
Qin Fei handed the document directly to Rhodes: "Okay, what price do you think we can offer?"
Rhodes was very surprised by Qin Fei's generosity. He didn't expect that he didn't even argue with him about the price.
"Mangai is a rich diamond-producing area, and the quality of its products is very good, so it is very popular in the market." He held out five fingers: "I can give you this number - five hundred thousand dollars."
"Deal!" Qin Fei agreed without even thinking.
Rhodes was surprised again. He was stunned for a while before he came back to his senses. He took the document and said happily: "I really admire you people from country Z. You are so straightforward in doing business! I will let the people in London tonight
Prepare the money and come over tomorrow to sign a contract with you."
After saying that, Rhodes stood up and left, saying that he had a cocktail party to attend in the evening.
After Rhodes left, Lao Yu hurriedly asked: "You didn't ask for the price and just sold the diamond mine to him?"
"Old Yu, it's not that easy to open a mine. In the past few days, I have finally understood that you, like Somchai, have no power here. Even if you have a mine, you can only rely on luck. Once the war comes, everything will be gone.
Moreover, we have to invest manpower, material resources and a lot of time. We are not professional jewelers like Rhodes, and we don’t have his energy." Qin Fei said, "Sell as much as you can, and it will be a windfall anyway."
Lao Yu was silent for a moment and had to agree with Qin Fei's idea.
"You're right, we are not a group of people, and we don't eat a lot of food. People like us should continue to be mercenaries." Old Yu said: "I will ask Eric and Zixing for their opinions later.
Let’s see if they want to come with us.”
"Okay, you should prepare these things first. In short, this mercenary group is my share." Qin Fei said.
The old fish said: "Well, now you have a lot of money. Give me your passport and I will open a bank account in the Virgin Islands for you so that you can save money in the future."
"Virgin Islands?" Qin Fei heard of this kind of bank for the first time.
Lao Yu said: "Yes, when mercenaries sometimes have to take on tasks from strange clients, they don't want others to have access to their capital flows, so they generally don't use regular big bank accounts to pay remuneration, so as not to affect the impact.
They have already laundered accounts, so offshore bank accounts like the Bank of the British Virgin Islands are more popular. Firstly, there is almost no tax rate, and secondly, they are not monitored by many government organizations. The disadvantage is that they are not as powerful as big banks.
Reputation and service are not so convenient, so generally speaking, when we are mercenaries, we use two bank accounts, one is an offshore bank account to collect money, and another one is registered for a large bank account such as the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets or a developed country.
Used for consumption, complement each other."
Lao Yu is an old mercenary, and of course he is very familiar with all this. With his help, nothing will go wrong.
Qin Fei quickly took out his passport from his luggage bag and handed it to Lao Yu. Lao Yu took it and looked at it and smiled: "I found that people who run away from our country like to go to country T to apply for a passport."
"Kunchai did it for me. I don't know it myself. At that time, I just wanted to leave Southeast Asia as soon as possible." At this point, Qin Fei suddenly reminded him of his request to Lao Yu: "By the way, Lao Yu, I'm begging you.
You have to hurry up on the things you are checking for me, and if you need money, you can tell me."
"There is no such thing as money between us. You have helped me make a lot of money this time, and I am one step closer to my retirement goal." Lao Yu said, "I guess that foreign woman in my family has paid me a lot of money."
With the money I sent back this time, I will be happy."
Remembering that Lao Yu's retirement goal was to buy a small farm in France to spend the rest of his life, Qin Fei suddenly felt the urge to help Lao Yu.
Old Yu can be regarded as having been in the mercenary business for many years, but it seems that he has not saved much money. Just like he was deceived by Robert before, Old Yu is talking about a deal, and he is a bit like an older person.
The habit of trusting others too much is both an advantage and a disadvantage.
If everyone forms a group and works alone this time, Qin Fei feels that he has the ability to make Lao Yu realize his wish in a few years.
After all, he is just a veteran who has really shed his blood for the country. In the end, he doesn't want anything. He lives a homeless life abroad. As a younger generation and a fellow countryman, of course he should help him if he can.
"Old Yu, believe me, let's work together, I guarantee you will be able to retire early in a few years." Qin Fei patted Lao Yu's arm.
Lao Yu was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing, and patted Qin Fei on the shoulder: "Okay! Let's work together, new recruits and veterans. I don't believe we can't make it in the mercenary circle!"
After Lao Yu left, Emily suddenly came back again, still holding a paste in her hand. According to Silly Baitian, she made it herself using milk, oatmeal and dried nuts.
Qin Fei took a bite and it was so sweet that he almost spit it out.
The people in the Empire where the sun never sets really don't have any talent for cooking, but they can make a dessert with this taste.
But I didn't dare to say it, so I could only hold my nose and drink half a bowl, then I said that I was tired and wanted to rest, so I quickly covered my head and fell asleep.
The days passed like this, and a week passed.
One morning when I woke up, it was already noon the next day. There was a roaring motor outside, and the street outside the hospital seemed to be extremely noisy.
Qin Fei got up curiously, slowly dressed and walked to the window, opened the curtains and looked out at the street.
Along the entire street, rows of West African peacekeeping soldiers were driving past in trucks and armored vehicles. Finally, Qin Fei saw the army of the Empire on which the Sun Never Sets.
In the past few days, Qin Fei was awakened by convoys of such troops entering the city almost every day. More and more foreign troops were deployed in Sierra Leone. Just as Commander Babel said, Liberty City was already safe.
"Qin Fei!"
Lao Yu appeared outside the door with a satellite phone in his hand. He walked up to him and handed the phone to Qin Fei.
"your phone."
"Mine?" Qin Fei was a little unable to recover. After all, he had been on the run and had not left any contact information for others.
"Yes, from Eritrea." said the old fish.
Qin Fei thought it was Kunchai who was training in an Eritrean mercenary training camp, so he took the phone and put it to his ear.
Unexpectedly, there was a stranger's voice on the other end. It was a call from someone Qin Fei didn't know at all.
