Chapter 209 Between Gains and Loss

When he said this, Brent sat in the circular sofa in the living room, crossing his legs, and a half-burned cigar between his rough fingers. A pair of slightly sunken eyes shone with excitement, like a jackal who saw flesh bones.

Li Zaian stood a few steps away, his right shoulder leaning against the edge of the floor-to-ceiling window, holding a cup of coffee in his hand, and his blurred eyes wandered on the beach not far from the window. There were two slim blond beauties walking leisurely

The cold sea breeze in the North Atlantic blew over, wielding one of the women's blonde hair over her shoulders and lifting up the hem of her brown windbreaker. However, the woman raised her hands and pressed a wide-brimmed hat on her head.

This scene reflects the golden sea view not far away, giving people a sense of tranquility, leisure and comfort

Are you planning to do some investment projects in New York? Brent has a very disgraceful talent. He brought a cup of coffee and sent it to Li Zaian and smiled, "I can introduce you to some friends who are wise."

Oh, is that? Li Zai'an took the coffee, and his eyes swept over were only shaking on Brent's face, and soon returned to the window.

Of course, Brent didn't seem to notice that Li Zaian was absent-minded. He continued to say excitedly, this is a business that can make sure to make money without losing money.

Brent, my friend, it's not that I want to hit you. Li Zai'an pinched the coffee cup with three fingers, chuckled, and said, but there has never been a so-called business in this world that can make a profit without losing money. The only difference is that some businesses lose money, while others accompany human relations.

After a pause, Li Zaian took his eyes back from the window, fell on Brent's face, and smiled and said: I believe what you said is that you should make sure to make a profit, it should be a profit in money, that is, you have to lose favors, but I don't seem to have any favors to pay for in this place of the United States, right?

That can't be said. Brent was obviously what he thought. He touched his nose awkwardly and said with a smile. In fact, this is indeed a good investment opportunity.

Then let's listen. Li Zaian took a sip of coffee and said softly.

That's it. Brent licked his lips, sorted out his thoughts, and said, "Do you know what company this sea view garden belongs to?"

Edwino Company? The name Blanche mentioned flashed through Li Zai'an's mind instantly

Yes, it was Edwino Company. Brent slapped his hands and said, Edwino Company received a large order two months ago, which was a maintenance project for naval ships. The Navy Department allocated $42 billion for this project... Of course, Edwino could not take all such large orders. They received three of them, with an allocation of more than $3 billion. Think about it, if you can get these projects, will you get a sure-making investment direction?

I have three questions. Li Zai'an raised three fingers without hesitation, gestured in front of Brent, and smiled, "The first question is, I'm just a foreigner who doesn't even have American nationality. Why should I get such a rich project? I don't think that the Admiralty of the United States of America will hand over such an important project to a Chinese."

The second question, you just mentioned, these three naval ship maintenance projects were won by Edwino Company. Before that, I had never even heard of the name of this company. If possible, can you give me a reason for them to transfer this project to me?

Paul, you... Brent interrupted

The third question: Li Zaian cut off his words and continued, don’t forget that I don’t even have a company in the United States, and I don’t have any technology and equipment related to ship maintenance. Even if I can really take on these projects, what should I do?

Paul, you don't have to think about these issues. Brent finally found the opportunity to speak. He gestured to reassure Lee, saying, Although I don't know how to do this specifically, as long as you want, some of these projects will fall into your hands.

That's to give me money? Don't you understand if you just say it? Li Zaian smiled, took another sip of coffee, then pondered for a moment, and said, Money is such a good thing, whether it's joining the Morio organization, drug trafficking, or doing the financial industry, it can be said that everything I do is for money

But everything I do is for money, and it means that I can do everything for money. I also have a bottom line when dealing with money. One of the bottom lines is that I will never charge money from unknown origin or money from unknown intentions delivered to my door.

Brent opened his mouth and opened and closed his two thick lips twice. He probably wanted to say something, but he didn't know how to say it for a while.

Actually, it doesn't take him to say that Li Zaian also knows what this guy is thinking. Brent can't understand his bottom line, because this guy is just a brave man who dares to do anything for money.

My friend, we have been dating for a day or two. Shaking the coffee cup in my hand, Li Zai'an Shishi walked back to the sofa. Although I don't know what happened, I can always guess some more or less. First, the FBI took me to the dark room, and then another large order contract worth hundreds of millions of dollars, delivered to me for no reason. No matter how low my IQ is, I know there is a problem here. Is there more trouble behind Mike?

This... Brent hesitated for a moment. He really didn't know what to say. The most important thing was that a lot of what he learned was that he could not say to Li Zaian.

I can't say anything? Li Zaian threw a questioning look and said with a smile, "Okay, I won't ask more questions, just tell me what I should do now."

I need you to send Mike back. Brent was silent for a long time and finally said, don't misunderstand, not to send it here, but to Colombia and to Macayari

Li Zaian knows where Macayari is. It is a city upstream of Apaburis. It is not very large in scale and belongs to the area controlled by the Colombian government forces.

With his eyebrows raised, Li Zaian asked without hesitation: When?

The faster the better. Brent looked at him and said, "It's better you contact St. Paul's subordinates now and give them the order to hand over Mike."

Li Zaian smiled with a pursed lips. Just based on Brent's attitude, he knew that there must be some ulterior motive hidden secret on Mike. Brent probably had no idea about this secret before, but now he should have learned a little.

Look at the situation in this Lisseton Seaview Garden, there is no channel to contact the outside world. This is probably arranged by those who hide behind Brent.

The most obvious point is that before Mike is sent to Macayari, they must stay here. Those guys hiding behind Brent are very cautious. When things develop to this point, in order to prevent themselves from interfering, they will definitely not give themselves the opportunity to contact Mike again. Perhaps when they contact St. Paul through international phone calls, they will also arrange for people to monitor them.

What kind of secret is hidden in Mike?

Li Zaian could not guess, but it is certain that since the FBI tried hard to get Mike into his hands, and the people behind Brent pressed the FBI and wanted to get Mike into his hands first.

All signs show that this secret is extremely important and may be related to the lives of a group of major military and political figures.

Looking back on his attitude towards Mike before, Li Zaian inevitably regretted it - who would have thought that the down-and-out young master still had such valuable things hidden in his body, if...

Forget it, there is nothing in this world.

You know that he has missed the opportunity to make a fool, Li Zaian can only choose to give up. For him, it is safest to be more active at this time. If he shows even a little hesitation, he may be liquidated in the future.

But you also saw that there is no way to contact the outside world here. Spreading your hands, Li Zaian added:

I didn't expect him to agree so happily, Brent was stunned for a moment

Before coming here to meet with Li Zaian, those who arranged for him to come had already prepared to negotiate terms with Li Zaian.

This is very obvious. Mike's value cannot be hidden from the smart man Li Zaian.

No matter how well Brent conceals it, Li Zaian will inevitably see the clues.

That big project involving billions of funds was taken out to fill Li Zaian's greed

But who would have thought that Li Zaian first rejected the big order with amazing profits, and then he said without hesitation that he would hand over Mike

What's wrong? Is it difficult to arrange a phone call? My friend Li Zai'an was stunned when he saw him and couldn't help but smile

Oh, of course not, I will make arrangements for you now. Brent trembled and woke up from his astonishment. He was talking and walked quickly towards the entrance of the living room from the floor-to-ceiling window.

He had already walked out a few steps before he realized that he seemed to be rude, so he stopped again and said with a smile, Paul, the decision you made is correct, I promise you that you will never regret today's decision in the future.

I believe you Li Zaian turned his body sideways and looked at him and said with a smile.

Brent nodded vigorously and finally rushed out of the door

Listening to his footsteps getting farther and farther away, Li Zaian turned around, still lying comfortably on the sofa with a smile on his face - the meeting with Brent made him feel the complexity of the problem.

At this moment, he had no doubt that the living room was equipped with a large number of monitoring equipment, and his every move was under the surveillance of others.

It seems a pity to throw away Mike for nothing, but Li No. 1 will not force it for something that is destined to be unable to grasp. For him, the most realistic choice now is to strive to gain more trust from those people behind Brent.
