Chapter 573: Arrival in Iraq (Part 2)
"I'm sorry, Mr. President." Guo Tailai said in a humble manner: "I just came in private and have nothing to do with my country."
"That's a pity." Saddam shook his head slightly, but still squeezed out a smile at Guo Tailai: "Welcome to Iraq!"
Saddam has been sanctioned by the international community over the years and has difficulty. If there is oil, he can only sell some of the necessities for people's livelihood such as food. He hopes to lift the sanctions for many years. Although he knows that China is unlikely to send Guo Tailai, a young young man, to discuss cooperation between countries, he still feels a glimmer of hope of luck.
Despite some disappointment, Saddam was the president after all, so he quickly adjusted his emotions and invited Guo Tai to enter his palace.
Guo Tailai thought that the Dubai Chief Palace, which even the street lamp poles and the roof of the guard room were inlaid with gold, was already extremely luxurious. However, in this palace of Saddam, Guo Tailai discovered that Saddam's luxury was even more than that.
Starting from the steps at the door, any instruments and buildings that Guo Tailai saw were inlaid with pure gold. How much do the people of the Arab world like gold? Dubai is a golden city. Saddam, who is now sanctioned by the international community, is actually the same style.
Well, this is the first time Guo Tailai has used a golden cup to drink coffee, and it feels really... good!
"I need to say sorry to you before asking you to rest." Saddam sat with Guo Tailai and Prince Sheikh for a while, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he was startled by Prince Sheikh. He said sorry, what are you doing?
"Why?" Guo Tailai also looked surprised. He had no intersection with Saddam before, right? Why do you want to apologize to yourself? Is he trying to detain himself?
"In London, England, my eldest son Uday planned an attack on you." Saddam was barely considered a hero of his generation. He said calmly in the face of Guo Tailai: "Although it was not successful, I still have to say sorry to you."
That time in London? Guo Tailai was attacked twice in London. The first time was the attack on the way to the airport, but Guo Tailai easily resolved it. A tie pierced the tire of the truck and controlled the driver. It was discovered in the parking lot of the London airport a week later, and it caused an explosion.
The second time was when he was with Charles, he was blocked from the road and launched an attack. It seemed that it was done by the mercenaries, but later he could not find the real master. Which time did Saddam say?
"I was attacked when I was with Prince Charles in London!" Guo Tailai said with a sudden realization: "No wonder there is such a loud momentum and movement."
During the first attack, Guo Tailai calmly resolved it, and did not let outsiders know that they had discovered the attacker. Until now, Guo Tailai and the others have covered up very well. No one knows. Even the attackers and organizers may not know that Guo Tailai took action. They only know that the car they arranged for had a traffic accident, and the person responsible for driving for Guo Tailai and others did not wait for the signal behind, so they did not take action. But at the airport, someone designed the suicide scene.
"It's a little more disturbing." Saddam nodded slightly and admitted: "I have punished Udai. I hope you don't have any reservations about this matter when treating it."
"I am a nursing doctor." Although Guo Tailai was a little surprised, he nodded and said, "Please believe me. When facing my clients, I will abide by basic professional ethics."
"I hope so too." Saddam smiled, not saying anything more.
There was such a layer of grudge, which Guo Tailai really didn't expect. Not only Guo Tailai did not expect, but even Prince Xie He next to him was a little stunned. Has there been such a thing?
"Are the things I tell you that you have prepared in advance ready?" Prince Sheikh quickly spoke out to ease the atmosphere and change the topic.
"Of course!" Saddam nodded: "Other things are tight, but butter is still enough."
While speaking, they signaled Guo Tailai and Sheikh to stand up and follow. The two of them had no objection and followed Saddam directly to a door of the palace hall.
When passing a bar, Saddam reached out to pick up a pen on the bar, signed a document directly on a piece of paper on the bar, and handed it directly to Prince Sheikh. Needless to ask, this is the medical qualification certificate required by Guo Tailai. Saddam is the president and has the right to appoint an official who can sign this license. Of course, he also has the right to sign a license.
"Are you being sanctioned? Are you going to transfer the care expenses from your private account?" Prince Sheikh did not stand on the side of the Arab brother at this time, but stood firmly on Guo Tailai's side, and asked directly at Saddam: "Are you still transferring money from your family's private account?"
"Transfer?" Saddam smiled and shook his head, "We won't transfer money."
"Hey, Hussein, we agreed." Sheikh's face turned black. What does this mean? Do you cheat someone and then make a debt? This is related to his reputation for guarantees and must not be indifferent.
"Although our private accounts are also very secretive, large-scale transfers will definitely be targeted." Saddam said calmly: "Even if Swiss banks claim to be the most confidential bank for customers, believe me, their guarantee is not worth a penny! When one day faces strong pressure from the United States or other countries, do you think that if you claim to be permanently neutral, you can push all these countries back? You don't want to have such a large transfer fee record between you and me when one day the transfer records are exposed, right?"
The following sentence is for Guo Tai. Saddam's reputation in the international community is not very good now, and it is not a good thing to be involved with him. Guo Tailai could only nod and admit that what Saddam said made sense.
"Then how do you plan to pay?" Prince Sheikh's face improved a little, as long as it was not a debtor: "It's not that it's oil, right?"
"I'm happy, is Mr. T willing?" Saddam asked Guo Tailai with anticipation.
Guo Tailai shook his head directly into a rattle. What a joke? The United Nations is sanctioning Iraq, and even a drop of oil cannot be transported out. Only when he is full will he receive oil as payment for the goods. Although the quality of Iraq's oil seems to be pretty good.
"So, what about the oil field?" Saddam smiled and asked more: "Is the ownership of the oil field OK?"
How do you mine the oil field? You can get it or get it hot potato? You will import a large amount of oil in China, but it is not the case that cannot be mined or transported by oil that cannot be mined or cannot be transported? Guo Tailai shook his head after all.
