The black official nodded, "I will convey Mr. Rick's words to my superiors in full. If it is as you said, it should be a plan that satisfies everyone.
Except for the Wagner Group, of course. "
"Okay, I will wait for your reply." Lin Rui nodded.
The black official left politely, but two days later, he brought some surprising news to Lin Rui and others.
Mali agreed with Lin Rui¡¯s idea and was willing to reach an agreement with Trident Company. But there is a premise.
Mali requested that they first solve the problem of the Wagner Group.
Because the Malian government is unwilling to publicly offend the Wagner Group, they require Trident to try to get the Wagner Group to leave Mali.
Only if such conditions are met, they will sign a contract with Trident Group.
The Malian official¡¯s approach seems a bit rogue, but it also reveals a hint of sophistication.
They themselves do not need to offend the Wagner mercenary group. Instead, let the people from Trident Company drive away the Wagner Group.
In this way, when they face the Wagner Group, they will have sufficient reasons.
It¡¯s not that I didn¡¯t give you a chance, I also want to do business with you. But if you are squeezed out by your peers, this is not our problem in Mali.
¡°To put it simply, I gave you the Wagner Group a chance, but you yourself didn¡¯t use it.
When Lin Rui got this answer, he couldn't help but laugh.
It seems that I still underestimate these Malian officials too much. This group of people has been dealing with Western countries all year round, and they are all smooth-talking veterans.
The conditions they set out are not only applicable to Trident Company. I'm afraid the same applies to the Wagner Group.
¡°Once Trident Company, there is no way to drive the Wagner Group out of Mali. Then, these Malian officials are likely to use the same tone to deal with Lin Rui's Trident Company.
We also want to cooperate with your Trident Company, as long as you can drive away the Wagner Group. But the Wagner Group is so powerful that even you can't do anything to it.
This is not because our Malian government has not given you a chance. But I gave you the opportunity, but you couldn't grasp it.
"This set of tricks to drive the tiger away from the tiger and devour the wolf is played by the Malian government so clearly that you have nothing to say.
This time it was Lin Rui's turn to have a headache again. Although he does want to squeeze the Wagner Group out of Mali, and even kick them out of Africa as a whole.
¡°But the Wagner Group is quite powerful after all, and it has taken the lead in gathering thousands of troops in the Mali region.
¡° Moreover, these people are all desperate thugs, and many of them are even criminals recruited directly from prisons. It is not easy to drive them out of Mali completely.
??Besides, Trident Company itself is a relatively formal private military company. Could it be that in order to grab business, there was a fight with this Russian colleague?
The Wagner Group is not a kind person, and we really want to have a fight with them. Trident Company would have to suffer real casualties.
Before the business was concluded, we started to have a fierce battle with our peers. Even if he wins the battle, he will probably suffer a considerable loss of strength. It would be even worse if he lost. Not only would his strength be greatly damaged, but he would also have to pack up and get out.
Where is this damn business for making money? Isn't this just a way to make money?
This operation by the Malian authorities not only put Lin Rui in distress, but also the actuary Jiang An was helpless this time.
Looking at the conditions proposed by the Malian side, actuary Shogan said helplessly, "To put it bluntly, this is making things difficult. But we don't have any reason to refute it.
Because the Wagner Group negotiated with Mali before we did. We came over later to grab business.
Since you want to grab business, you must show your capital to grab business. It is only natural that employers want to test your quality and see how you are better than others. "
"That's what I said. But no matter how I look at this matter, I feel that it is wrong. The contract has not been signed yet, and the remuneration conditions have not been discussed.
First let us fight to the death with the Russian mercenaries. How can this make sense? The other party in Mali is also an international mercenary organization with thousands of people.
How do we drive them out of Mali? It's definitely not possible to persuade them to retreat with words, right?
?Then the only option is to take action. This is not a matter of using hands. I am afraid that guns and cannons will be used, and the lives of the brothers will have to be sacrificed.
¡°If we really have a head-on confrontation with the Wagner Group, the losses will definitely be considerable. The key is that no matter we win or lose, we don¡¯t get any reward, and we don¡¯t have any compensation for such losses.p;We all know that these people have no bottom line. We wanted to have a good talk with them last time, but they just sent you a bomb. This time, when it comes to Mali's big contract, they are more likely to go against you.
If you go to see them now, if they kidnap you and threaten us to withdraw from Mali, wouldn¡¯t we be very passive? "
"It's not that anyone has no brains. The guy we saw at the checkpoint this time should be the general manager of the Wagner Group in Africa.
I will talk to him to see if we can solve this problem in a bloodless way.
In fact, it can be seen from his attitude when he came to us before. It¡¯s not just us who are afraid of the Wagner Group, they are even more afraid of us.
After all, this is Africa, we have been operating here for several years, and they have only improved a bit in recent times.
So it¡¯s only because they are afraid of us, we don¡¯t need to be afraid of them at all. "Lin Rui clapped his hands confidently.
Seeing Lin Rui¡¯s resolute attitude, no one else said anything. Lin Rui's prestige in Trident Company has been earned through hard work.
Since they were at Black Island Company, Lin Rui has been leading his brothers. Later, he separated from the Black Island Company, founded a new company along the way, and gradually took over the mercenary alliance left by the Black Island Company.
All the brothers under his command admire Lin Rui. Therefore, Lin Rui has the sole decision-making power in Trident Company.
This right is not given by anyone. Rather, it is based on absolute trust. Usually they can have different opinions, but once Lin Rui made a decision.
Others can only obey absolutely without saying a word.
Surprisingly, the senior manager of the Wagner Group, that is, Reggio, readily agreed to Lin Rui¡¯s appointment.
Of course, the meeting place was at the Wagner Group¡¯s camp.
When the appointed time arrived, Lin Rui attended the appointment on time.
After hearing that Lin Rui had arrived, Regedo immediately asked in a low voice, "How many people did they bring?"
"It seems like there are only two." The Wagner mercenary replied.
"What? That Rick Lane only brought two men, are you sure?" Reggio said in surprise.
¡°Didn¡¯t I bring two men with me¡¡± The mercenary from the Wagner Group hesitated.
"Then how many people did he bring with him?" Lejieduo said nervously after hearing this.
"The two people I'm talking about are there were two people in total including him. That Rick Lane only brought an old man with a briefcase." The Wagner mercenary explained.
"An old man with a briefcase?" Reggio was even more puzzled.
"Yes, that old man is about sixty years old. His white hair is neatly combed, he looks quite thin, and he wears a pair of glasses." The Wagner mercenary nodded.
"An old man wearing glasses? I've never heard that there is such a number one figure in Trident Company?"
Have you checked them? You didn't bring any weapons, did you? "Regedo said with some doubts.
"We have checked Rick Lane and the old man, and there are no weapons. The belongings are the old man's briefcase. In addition to a laptop, there are also some notebooks and pens. They all look like ordinary items. ." The Wagner mercenary replied.
"Have you confirmed that the laptop has been checked? There are no bombs in it, right? There are also notes and pens, and they are also confirmed to be not weapons?" Regjedo asked.
"Definitely not. The computer is just an ordinary laptop. As for the notebook and pen, they are the most ordinary ones. It absolutely cannot be a weapon." The mercenary replied.
¡°What the hell?¡± Lei Jieduo pondered for a moment. "Isn't it possible? Didn't they receive information from Mali?
As far as I know, they should have received the same conditions as us. Only by expelling the other party can we get the contract provided by Mali.
In this case, he actually only brought an old man to see me? What does he mean by that, is he so sure that I don't dare to do anything to him? "
"Sir, they should still be waiting. What do you mean" the Wagner mercenary asked tentatively.
¡°He just brought an old man with him, and he had no weapons. Now he is in our camp, am I still afraid of him?
I just feel a little strange, what on earth does this guy want to do, and who is that old man?
Forget it, I don¡¯t want to anymore. I'm going to see him now. You immediately inform all the brothers to be prepared. Unless I personally give an order, you must not act rashly. "Regedo shook his head, with a strange look on his face. "Damn, what does this Rick want to do? "(Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)??, his face looked a little strange. "Damn it, what does this Rick want to do?" (Remember this website address: www.hlnovel.com
