Chapter 1780

~8 min read 1,511 words

Sayid took his satellite phone and stepped out of the conference room located inside Hamid's mountain.

On the phone, he truthfully fed back the situation to his leaders.

The conditions of the Cataclysmic Front's coordinated defense, helping to train soldiers, and taking the initiative to request to be in the buffer zone made Sayid's leaders very satisfied.

After all, this could indeed improve their safety very well, and at the same time, it could also alleviate their current anxiety.

And the compensation of one hundred and fifty million US dollars, as well as the terms of one hundred thousand tons of wheat every year, made him even more overjoyed.

Moreover, there was also a bonus clause in this, which was Hamid's actual neutrality. Hamid was the one with the strongest comprehensive strength among the opposition forces now. If he could achieve not taking the initiative to launch an attack, then the pressure on the government forces' defense would also be much easier.

Therefore, he immediately made a final decision on the phone and agreed to Ye Chen's terms.

Sayid got the approval, returned to the conference room in high spirits, and immediately said to Ye Chen and Wan Pojun: "Mr. Ye, Mr. Wan, our leaders have already agreed to the terms just now. If there are no other problems, please come with me to Damascus to sign the agreement!"

Ye Chen checked the time and laughed: "I still have to rush back to China, so I won't go with you."

After saying that, he said to Wan Pojun: "Pojun, you go and settle the specific terms with them, as well as when to pay, how to pay, and when to release people. As for the food problem, you don't need to worry about it. Let them see which port is more suitable to receive the goods. At that time, I will arrange for a cargo ship to send the food over directly."

Wan Pojun said hurriedly: "Mr. Ye, how can I let you worry about the food? Let me solve it!"

Ye Chen waved his hand: "100,000 tons of food is nothing to you or me. I have a ready-made shipping company here, and I have many friends in China. At that time, whether it is purchasing or shipping, it should be relatively simple, so you don't need to get involved. After Sayid and the others give you the land, you will definitely have to spend a lot of financial, material, and energy resources to build it. You just need to grasp this part well."

Wan Pojun nodded gratefully and asked again: "Mr. Ye, do you want to take a look at the site selection problem?"

Ye Chen waved his hand and said casually: "You definitely know more about fighting than I do, so you can decide the specific site selection entirely by yourself."

"Good!" Wan Pojun said without hesitation: "Then any progress, your subordinate will report to you in time!"

Wan Pojun's "subordinate" made both Hamid and Sayid's expressions tighten.

They themselves were curious. Ye Chen was originally standing on the opposite side of the Cataclysmic Front. He first helped Hamid severely damage the Cataclysmic Front, and then helped Sayid capture fifteen thousand soldiers of the Cataclysmic Front. They couldn't figure out why Ye Chen started helping the Cataclysmic Front solve the rear base problem again today.

Now suddenly hearing Wan Pojun call himself a subordinate, both of them were incomparably shocked in their hearts. According to this meaning, the Cataclysmic Front should have already become Ye Chen's!

Just when the two were shocked, Ye Chen said to Wan Pojun: "You go directly with Sayid and take his plane to Damascus. I will chat with Brother Hamid for a few words and then go directly to Beirut."

Wan Pojun said respectfully: "Okay, Mr. Ye! Then your subordinate will take his leave first!"

Sayid finally came back to his senses. Although he had countless questions he wanted to ask Ye Chen, he also knew in his heart that now was not the time to ask these things, so he took the initiative to say to Ye Chen: "Mr. Ye, then I will return to Damascus first. Thank you for your help all along, looking forward to seeing you again next time!"

Ye Chen nodded and smiled: "Okay Sayid, see you next time!"

Ye Chen and Hamid sent the two to the door and watched their helicopter take off. Hamid then exclaimed: "Brother Ye, you are really too surprising... How did the famous Cataclysmic Front suddenly become your subordinate?"

Ye Chen asked him with a smile: "Has Brother heard about the Cataclysmic Front's actions some time ago?"

Hamid scratched his head: "The information in my place is relatively blocked. It wasn't until you said you wanted to bring Wan Pojun over for negotiations that I specifically inquired about the recent situation of the Cataclysmic Front. I heard that they ate up one of the top big families in China and forced that family to give up half of their assets. I don't know if it's true or false?"

Ye Chen said proudly: "Actually, they didn't manage to eat that family, but were eaten by that family instead. And I am the head of that family."

After saying that, Ye Chen turned his head, looked at the shocked Hamid, and said with a smile: "Brother, with the Cataclysmic Front here, you can rest assured and be your local rich man. No one can do anything to you."

Hamid came back to his senses and said hurriedly: "Brother, to tell you the truth, I really don't understand how to develop in the future. Can you point me to a clear path?"

Ye Chen laughed: "What's there not to understand? With your current situation, I'll give you ten words."

Hamid asked hurriedly: "Which ten words?"

Ye Chen put away his smile and said seriously: "Sit on the mountain and watch the tigers fight, make a fortune in silence!"

Hamid muttered these ten words in his own mouth, feeling as if he had cleared the clouds and seen the blue sky, but it seemed a bit unclear.

So, he asked humbly: "Brother, I have no opinion on being neutral, but I'm afraid they will break my colleagues one by one, and in the end, I'll be the only one left. At that time, they definitely won't tolerate me!"

Ye Chen nodded and said: "So, this is why I wanted to chat with you alone again."

Hamid knew that Ye Chen must have something to entrust to him privately, so he said hurriedly: "Brother, I'm all ears!"

Ye Chen said: "What I just said about you being actually neutral was just to say it to Sayid. Actually, the positioning of you and Wan Pojun should be completely mirrored."

"Wan Pojun is neutral and leaning towards the government forces, while you should be neutral and leaning towards your colleagues."

"Wan Pojun will only help them coordinate defense in the future and will not help them attack. You are the same. You have to help your poor brothers coordinate defense, but you can't do this blatantly. You must never intervene directly when they are fighting. The best way is to help them strengthen their own defenses before the war."

"If they really fight, then you implement the ten words I just said and never intervene."

"So, in order to prevent your poor brothers from being broken one by one, you have to make your poor brothers strong, but you also have to remind them that since they have chosen to occupy the mountain and become kings, they must not be too greedy. Manage your own one-third of an acre well. Don't think about fighting them to the death. It's best if both sides can stalemate for a long time. This is actually the best situation for you."

Hamid nodded gently and said: "I understand what you mean, Brother!"

As he spoke, he said with some worry: "But to tell you the truth, my poor brothers don't have much money. If I let them carry out large-scale infrastructure construction, I'm afraid they can't afford it at all."

Ye Chen asked him: "Where do armed forces like yours get their daily expenses?"

Hamid explained: "Most of the expenses rely on overseas aid, and a small part relies on some resources and output of the controlled areas, such as food, oil, etc., which can be used to earn some money by selling these materials."

Ye Chen nodded and said: "Then you use the engineering corps under your command to trade with them, help them engage in some infrastructure construction at a slightly lower price. If they don't have money, then let them exchange it with food and oil."

As he spoke, Ye Chen instructed again: "If your engineering corps helps them build bases, remember to package them as a civilian construction enterprise, so that Sayid's side will look better on the surface. Some surface work still needs to be done."

"I understand!" Hamid said excitedly: "I will immediately start promoting this matter!"
