LIGHTNOVELONLINE Chapter 610 Press Conference
David and Ephron were silent as they walked out of Li Qing Manor, and the whole atmosphere was very awkward.
Fat Ephron still spoke, "Ahem... David, I know you don't believe me. But now is not the time to be angry. We must complete Mr. Li Qing's mission."
Efron still cherishes his life. If he can't complete the task, David should be fine.
But he must be dead!
"Hmph...Mr. Li Qing is not afraid of you snitching. If you ask me, you should be shot."
David glanced at Efron with disdain.
What he didn't know was that Li Qing had arranged for someone to keep an eye on them secretly 24 hours a day. If they made any strange move, they would kill them immediately!
If Mr. Li Qing hadn't asked them to complete the order together, he would have killed Efron right now.
A trace of anger flashed in Ephron's eyes, but he still apologized with a smile on his face, "It is indeed my fault. Complete the task first, and then you can deal with me however you want. Don't delay Mr. Li Qing's affairs."
David snorted and stopped talking.
There were a lot of orders, and it took almost a week to get them together, mainly because the N-hand weapons that Li Qing requested were too difficult to get, otherwise it would have been two days earlier.
Watching the ship loaded with munitions slowly leave the port, David and Ephron left with their own concerns.
At this time, standing on a tall building not far from the pier, Henry took out the telescope, curled his mouth, everything was under his control.
Just by looking at the injuries on Efron's face, he knew that the plan was going well. According to the New World's style of doing things, if Efron had been seen through, he would have been killed long ago.
As long as this batch of goods arrives in the country of Barron, the new world will be like yellow mud falling into the crotch—either shit or shit.
When the time comes, the New World may not be able to withstand the questioning from the beautiful country’s military.
As long as New World's credibility fails, it will be easier for those behind him to take advantage of the muddy waters.
Two flowers bloom, one on each side.
When the New World received news of the arms leaving Hong Kong, Li Qing directly called William, the deputy minister of defense.
William just answered the phone, "Li Qing? You didn't even say you came to me for a drink when you came back. Alas... the relationship has faded!"
"Drink? My business has been robbed, and I don't have the money to treat you to a drink." Li Qing's tone was full of grief, anger and grievance.
William immediately heard something was wrong, "What's going on? What happened?"
There are few people in the beautiful country who can make Li Qing feel unhappy.
"Sigh... William, did the military leave all the orders in the Middle East to me?" Li Qing let out a long sigh.
William was stunned when he heard this, "Yeah, what's wrong? Is there any problem?"
"Tsk, tsk...are the military treating me like a monkey? A large number of orders left the port tonight and headed for Barron. This...you have to give me an explanation."
Li Qing almost burst into tears, and his tone of voice was full of grievance.
It made William unhappy to hear it, and he was furious for a moment, "What? Mader, who is it? I want to send him to a military court."
The military finally found an honest partner, and Li Qing's $150 billion oil field was given to them without any ambiguity.
Based on this alone, if the military people don’t protect us anymore, who will come to the military’s side in the future?
"I don't know either. I only know that there is a batch of arms worth 300 million US dollars that is going to Barron.
Sigh...forget it, I'd better go back to Southeast Asia! "
When he heard that Li Qing was leaving, William was a little anxious, "Don't worry, I will investigate thoroughly and give you a letter. Don't worry, I will never let them go."
William comforted him for a while, and then Li Qing pretended to wait.
After hanging up the phone, William immediately called the person in charge of the Munitions Department.
"What the hell do you do for a living? Can't coordinate even the smallest things?" William scolded the person in charge.
William pounded the table vigorously, "Tell me, who allowed the 300 million order? Isn't this an injustice to the military? Let us never cooperate with others in the future."
The person in charge of the Munitions Department also grimaced. He didn't dare to offend either party. What could he do? I had to squeeze some out of Li Qing's order.
"Minister William, I don't want to either. But... I can't afford to offend that person!"
William glared at him fiercely, "Who?"
"Deputy Secretary Scott!"
"Well..."
Scott is also the deputy secretary of defense and William's biggest opponent for defense secretary.
This calmed down the angry William. Although there was a gap between the two, it was not big.
Because of the oil field, the upper management is more optimistic about William!
It’s not that Scott has no chance at all. There are people behind William who support him, and Scott also has expert guidance behind him.
But Li Qing must give an explanation for this matter, otherwise no one will be on his side in the future.
William thought for a while and dialed Scott's phone number.
"Scott?"
"Hey William, what's up?"
"Scott, have you touched the order in the Middle East recently? It was decided by the minister to give this piece to Li Qing. I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to do this, right?"
William turned his eyes and began to test Scott.
"Oh, William, you have wronged me. That small order of 300 million you mentioned?"
When William heard what he said, he realized that it was indeed Scott.
"How about we go to the minister and talk about it?" William smiled, and the decision was made by the minister. He didn't believe that Scott dared to go to the minister.
"William, are you sure? This matter came from someone in 'House of Cards'. I'm afraid the minister's side..."
When William heard the word "House of Cards", his heart skipped a beat. If the "House of Cards" came forward, he would have to give face to the minister.
After all, this is a huge political force. Even if he can't make friends, he can't offend it.
"'House of Cards'?"
William had a hunch that Scott must have reached a consensus on cooperation with someone from the "House of Cards", otherwise he wouldn't offend him because of a small order.
William didn't say anything and hung up the phone directly.
This matter still needs to be explained to Li Qing, and he can't let him have any grudges in his heart.
Although Li Qing had expected it, he couldn't help cursing when he heard the news.
"Damn it, I didn't offend them." Li Qing pretended to be wronged.
"It seems that they just drank some soup. Don't worry, there will never be a next time."
William patted his chest and made a promise.
If someone from the "House of Cards" didn't know how to promote him, he didn't have to worry about it. After all, one person can't represent the "House of Cards".
"Who is that person?" Li Qing asked.
William frowned, "Don't think about using force for this matter. You know if you rashly kill officials in the United States, I can't protect you."
"I know, don't worry, I'm not that unwise!"
William nodded after listening to Li Qing's words. He still believed that Li Qing would not do anything unreliable.
"Deputy Minister of the Interior Haranda!"
Li Qing frowned. The Minister of the Interior is considered the ninth person in the United States. The Deputy Minister is nominally on par with the Deputy Minister of Defense.
No wonder William didn't dare to offend rashly.
Fortunately, Li Qing didn't completely rely on William.
While the batch of arms has not arrived in Barron yet, he must immediately clarify that the batch has nothing to do with the New World.
The fastest way to clarify is to hold a press conference!
Of course, the spokesperson is definitely not him, but Yuri, who has been in charge of arms affairs. After all, a handsome Western white face is more likely to win the favor of the American people.
