Chapter 550 Unexpected Visitor
In the reception room of the Yingbin Hotel, the crystal chandelier casts a soft light on the dark mahogany furniture.
Abdullah sat upright on the sofa, his fingers gently running over the contract he had just signed.
Fang Yu stood aside, a look of satisfaction in his eyes.
This batch of arms orders, including the improved WS2, drones and 59 tanks, has a total value of more than 200 million US dollars, which is enough for Longguo's military industry to obtain considerable foreign exchange income.
General Chen pushed the door open and walked in, his military boots making almost no sound on the thick carpet.
His eyes swept over the contract spread out on the table, and a smile appeared on his face.
"How did the talk go? Is the prince satisfied?"
“Very satisfied,”
Abdullah's beard trembled slightly with his smile.
"Mr. Fang's technical level in manufacturing weapons and equipment is admirable."
"This batch of equipment will greatly enhance the military strength of Camel Country."
General Chen nodded with satisfaction, sat down on the sofa, and poured himself a cup of tea: "That's good."
"By the way, besides the WS2 improved model, what else did you order?"
"Fifty Type 59 tanks, ten thousand automatic rifles, and thirty Eagle Strike armed drones."
Fang Yu answered succinctly while organizing the documents into his briefcase.
Abdullah took a sip of the Arabic coffee in front of him, his fingers unconsciously stroking his beard.
His eyes wandered between General Chen and Fang Yu, seeming to want to say something but stopping himself.
"Your Majesty, you seem to have something else to say?"
General Chen keenly noticed Abdullah's hesitation.
Abdullah put down his coffee cup, leaned forward slightly, and lowered his voice.
"I do have a request, but I don't know if I should tell you..."
Fang Yu and General Chen exchanged glances.
Then, General Chen picked up the teacup and smiled gently.
"Your Highness is a big client of our Dragon Country. I will definitely help you if I can."
“What’s your request?”
"You'll know in a moment."
Abdullah smiled brightly upon hearing this, and even his beard began to tremble.
"I don't know, could you please lend me your country's phone?"
"of course can."
Fang Yu nodded.
"Very good!"
Hearing this, Abdullah walked to a corner of the State Guest House, picked up the phone and quickly dialed a number.
He spoke briefly in Arabic, then hung up the phone and turned to General Chen.
"Mr. Chen, a friend will be coming later. I hope you can let him in."
Upon hearing this, General Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, and a hint of vigilance flashed in his eyes.
He and Fang Yu exchanged glances, both of them quickly pondering the meaning of Abdullah's words.
a friend?
What kind of friend needs special accommodations to enter such a high-level meeting place?
Fang Yu pursed his lips and his eyes became sharp.
Ever since he started dealing with Abdullah, he had already seen through the shrewdness of the Camel King.
Anyone Abdullah calls a "friend" must have close ties with the arms business.
Moreover, judging from Abdullah's mysterious attitude, the identity of this "friend" is probably quite sensitive.
General Chen's thinking is more direct. As a soldier, his first reaction is security risk assessment.
Introducing a third party at such a sensitive moment may bring variables to the negotiations.
But since I have already promised Abdullah, I can only take it one step at a time.
The atmosphere in the reception room suddenly became tense.
The guards at the door received instructions from General Chen and relaxed their vigilance, but still remained ready to take action at any time.
Fang Yu pretended to be calm as he sorted out the documents on his desk, but in fact he put the contracts and other sensitive materials into his briefcase just in case.
Abdullah seemed to sense the tension between the two and chuckled.
"Don't worry, my friend is absolutely reliable. He is very interested in what we are discussing today."
This sentence made Fang Yu and General Chen even more alert.
Interested in what we're talking about today?
The information about the improved WS2 is top secret, how could Abdullah tell a third party?
Fang Yu's heartbeat quickened slightly, and he glanced towards the exit out of the corner of his eye, assessing the worst-case scenario escape route.
General Chen nodded calmly.
"The prince's friends are naturally our friends as well."
His tone was calm, but his eyes revealed a sharp scrutiny.
As a veteran soldier who has been through many battles, he is ready to deal with any emergency.
In this tense atmosphere, the door of the living room was gently pushed open.
A tall black officer appeared at the door.
He was wearing a neat military uniform, and the epaulettes on his shoulders showed his high military rank.
He stood tall and straight, his eyes sharp and steady, and it was obvious that he was a man who had undergone rigorous military training.
Fang Yu and General Chen were both stunned.
From California?
This was the first thought that flashed through the two people's minds.
In Dragon Country at that time, black faces were extremely rare, let alone a black officer in uniform.
Fang Yu quickly searched for relevant information in his mind, trying to guess the origins of this officer.
Which country in the world? Ethiopia? Egypt? Or some other newly independent country?
The black officer stood at the door, looking around, and finally his eyes fell on Abdullah.
He nodded slightly to Abdullah, then turned to Fang Yu and General Chen, his eyes full of scrutiny and vigilance.
"Your Majesty, what do you mean?"
General Chen frowned and looked at Abdullah, his voice low and alert.
Abdullah stood up with a smile, walked to the black officer and patted him on the shoulder affectionately.
"Let me introduce you, my dear friends. This is General Sankara, the military commander of the small country of Kifasso in Northern Europe."
Sankara took a step forward, his combat boots making a slight sound on the carpet.
His face was angular, his complexion the color of espresso, and his eyes were bright and intense.
He first nodded to Abdullah, then turned to Fang Yu and General Chen and extended his right hand.
Fang Yu stepped forward and held Sankara's hand.
Sankara's hands were broad and rough, with an amazing grip strength, clearly a result of rigorous military training.
This Feizhou general looked extraordinary, with a look of determination that came from someone who had experienced war.
"Fang Yu, director of the Longguo Great Wall Military Factory." Fang Yu introduced himself briefly.
"Chen Weihua, Dragon Country military representative."
General Chen also stepped forward to shake hands, his eyes still showing no sign of diminishing vigilance.
After shaking hands, Fang Yu and General Chen exchanged a puzzled look.
Fang Yu's heart was filled with alarm.
Abdullah's sudden arrival with a French military officer clearly exceeded the scope of the originally scheduled talks.
The issue of the improved WS2 is already sensitive, and now there is another variable.
"Your Highness," General Chen coughed lightly, his tone calm but his eyes sharp, "I wonder why you brought General Sankara here?"
Abdullah immediately noticed the two men's doubts and quickly explained.
"Don't be nervous, both of you. General Sankara is an old friend of mine."
"He recently saw me use Dragon Nation's weapons to severely defeat Dai Sheng Nation, and he has become very interested in Dragon Nation's weapons."
Abdullah said as he poured Sankara a cup of tea.
Sankara took it silently, and his military alertness kept his eyes on Fang Yu and General Chen.
"So he asked me to act as a go-between and see if he could buy some weapons and equipment from Dragon Country..."
