Chapter 574: The brutal Uday (1)

"Do you want the oil field? Sheikh!" Saddam turned to Prince Sheikh again. He had some oil field, but he couldn't transport crude oil. If Sheikh was willing to take over, he could use the oil field as payment for the goods and let Prince Sheikh pay cash to Guo Tailai.

"Forget it!" Prince Sheikh shook his head: "I already have several oil fields under my name, and I can't operate it."

Iraq has been sanctioned, and all the oil produced in this area cannot be transported out. If Saddam uses Kuwait oil fields to settle the bill, there is no problem at all. The question is whether Saddam has Kuwait oil fields? What is the use of such oil fields that can't be thrown away by getting hot potatoes? Although Sheikh is an idle prince, he is not stupid?

Saddam was not surprised by this answer, so he did not feel angry about being rejected. He just calmly pushed open the door not far away, walked in, and then signaled the two to follow.

After entering, there was a corridor, and at the end of the corridor was an elevator. Saddam pressed the downward button, and the elevator opened. After the three of them entered, they closed it. They felt like they were going down. The elevator door opened, and Saddam walked out first.

When Guo Tailai went out, he found someone guarding the basement. This was not surprising. It would be strange if there was no one guarding Saddam's palace.

After walking forward for more than ten meters, Saddam pushed open a door on his right hand, pointed inside and asked, "Is it okay to pay with these payments?"

Guo Tailai and Xie He took two steps forward, and then opened their mouths wide at the same time. Guo Tailai was pretending, and he had seen what was inside, but Prince Xie He was really surprised.

In the eyes of the two, there was only a golden color. The gold bricks in regular shapes were neatly shaped and stacked up. There was nothing else in a room, so there were only gold bricks. Based on this quantity and volume, these gold bricks were probably not as many as dozens of tons.

This is just in this room. Before I could see the other rooms, Guo Tailai and Prince Sheikh were stunned.

After a while, the two of them calmed down and looked at each other, both of them saw the surprise and surprise in each other's eyes, and at the same time they had an indescribable feeling of wanting to take it for themselves.

"Are these possible?" Saddam looked at the shocked expressions of the two with a smile on his face, very satisfied.

Guo Tailai can be said to be not from a wealthy man, so he has no knowledge since childhood, so it is normal to be scared by this kind of situation. But it is really a pleasure to be able to calm Prince Sheikh, the prince of Dubai, as well.

"It's absolutely possible!" Guo Tailai didn't say anything, and answered Prince Sheikh.

It was not until Saddam spoke up that Prince Sheikh recovered from that shock. After the recovery, Prince Sheikh also felt a little embarrassed.

If the price of gold is just based on the price of gold, now one ounce of gold is about 290 US dollars, and one ton is equivalent to 35,274 ounces, and the price of one ton of gold is only just over 10 million US dollars. Even if it is ten tons, it only costs 100 million US dollars. This room looks like a lot, but it only costs hundreds of millions of US dollars to be exchanged for US dollars. It is just Prince Sheikh's annual oil export income. It should not be shocked by Prince Sheikh like this.

But it must be said that such a large pile of gold is so shocking that Prince Sheikh, a rich dog family in Dubai, was also shocked by this big scene.

Guo Tailai has learned sculpture seriously and orthodox aesthetics, but he found that no matter how beautiful the lines are, they seem to be inferior to the simplest straight lines of dozens of tons of gold bricks in front of him. Generally speaking, beauty gives the life and value of the artwork, but conversely, value sometimes seems to create some beauty. These golden and yellow "bricks" in front of him clearly verify this point. If you replace them with real bricks of the same shape and size, who would think it is beautiful?

This time, Prince Sheikh and Guo Tai came here, but the ones who were riding Prince Sheikh's Boeing 747-400 luxury private jet, in addition to the entourage, also had a lot of transportation capacity. They didn't transport much oil, but they were still fully capable of transporting dozens of tons of gold.

Gold, a natural currency heavy metal, is the hard currency that Guo Tailai calls for, and can be directly exchanged for cash at any time. If this thing cannot be paid, what else can be paid?

"Mr. T, I have met your request." Saddam enjoyed the shocked gazes of the two, and slowly asked Guo Tailai: "So, when will you start taking care of yourself?"

"Let's take a day off today and visit the museum." Saddam said that, he was abiding by the rules. Guo Tailai replied to Saddam without saying a word: "It will start tomorrow morning."

"My chief guard will take you to the National Museum." Saddam nodded, without even asking: "This palace is your residence in Iraq. You can order the housekeeper here for any needs, and he will meet all your needs. I will bring people here tomorrow morning."

When he returned to the hall again, Saddam left directly, leaving the palace to the two and their entourage, without any concern that they would move all the gold here. Of course, even if Guo Tailai and Prince Sheikh wanted to move, it would be impossible. This is someone else's territory.

Saddam's residence will not be known to Guo Tailai and Prince Sheikh. He did not even disclose any information when he left.

The head of the guard accompanied Guo Tailai and Prince Sheikh straight to the National Museum. In order to make the two more comfortable to visit, the National Museum was closed for half a day. The director of the museum personally accompanied Guo Tailai and Prince Sheikh and personally explained each collection that the two VIPs were interested in.

"Absorption is complete!"

Standing in front of the bronze head of Sargon II, Guo Tailai was filled with emotion.

The Mesopotamian Plain where the Mesopotamian Basin is located has splendid civilizations. The Sumerian civilization was founded in the 4,000 BC. It has a long history, but it’s a pity!

Guo Tailai left the Iraq National Museum with a bleak look on his face. Prince Sheikh thought Guo Tailai was also shocked by the long-standing civilization on this land. Although he left halfway through the tour, he didn't say much.

"G!" Back to the palace, Prince Sheikh specially pulled Guo Tailai to the yard of the palace to pretend to enjoy the scenery outside. He found an opportunity without outsiders to remind Guo Tailai in a low voice: "If Saddam comes with Uday tomorrow, no matter how much you hate him in your heart, you must do your best to take care of him."

"Why?" Guo Tailai asked.
