Chapter 1148 The Cruel Uday (Part 1)

"Do you want oil fields? Sheikh!" Saddam turned to Prince Sheikh again. He had plenty of oil fields, but he couldn't transport crude oil. If Xie He is willing to take over, the oil field can be used as the payment for the goods, and Prince Xie He will pay Guo Tailai in cash.

"Forget it!" Prince Sheikh shook his head: "I already have several oil fields under my own name, and I can no longer manage them."

Iraq is under sanctions, and all the oil produced in this area cannot be shipped out. If Saddam uses Kuwait's oil fields to offset the debt, then there is no problem at all. The question is, does Saddam have Kuwait's oil fields? What is the use of this kind of oil field, which is a hot potato that cannot be thrown away? Although Xie He is an idle prince, he is not stupid?

Saddam was not surprised by this answer, so he didn't feel the anger of being rejected. He just calmly pushed open the door not far away, walked in, and motioned for the two to follow.

After entering, there is a corridor, and at the end of the corridor is an elevator. Saddam pressed the down button, and the elevator opened. The three of them entered and then closed it. It felt like they went down for a while, and the elevator door opened, and Saddam walked out first.

It is not surprising that Guo Tailai found someone guarding the basement when he went out. It would be strange if there were no guards in Saddam's palace.

After walking forward for more than ten meters, Saddam pushed open a door on the right, pointed inside and asked, "Is it okay to pay with these?"

Guo Tailai and Xie He took two steps forward, and then opened their mouths at the same time. Guo Tailai was pretending, he had already seen what was inside, but Prince Sheikh was really surprised.

In the eyes of the two of them, there was only a piece of golden color left. Regularly shaped gold bricks are stacked neatly and piled up high. There is nothing else in a room, only gold bricks. Based on this quantity and volume, these gold bricks are probably not as many as tens of tons.

This is only in this one room, Guo Tailai and Prince Sheikh have been stunned before seeing it in other rooms.

After a while, the two calmed down and glanced at each other. They both saw the surprise and surprise in each other's eyes, and at the same time, there was an indescribable feeling of wanting to keep it for themselves.

"Is this okay?" Saddam looked at the shocked expressions of the two with a smile on his face, very satisfied.

It can be said that Guo Tailai was not from a wealthy family, so he has never seen it since he was a child. It is normal to be intimidated by this kind of battle. But being able to calm down Prince Sheikh, the prince of Dubai, is something that really makes people happy from the bottom of their hearts.

"It's absolutely fine!" Guo Tailai said nothing, and it was Prince Sheikh who answered.

It was not until Saddam asked aloud that Prince Sheikh recovered from the shock. After recovering, Prince Sheikh also felt a little embarrassed.

According to the price of gold alone, an ounce of gold is about 290 US dollars, a ton is equivalent to 35,274 ounces, and the price of a ton of gold is only a little over 10 million US dollars, even if it is 10 tons, it is only 100 million US dollars. Dozens of tons of this room looks like a lot, but it is only a few hundred million dollars in US dollars, but it is Prince Sheikh's annual oil export income, and Prince Sheikh should not be so shocked.

But what I have to say is that such a large pile of gold is so shocking that Prince Sheikh, a rich local tycoon in Dubai, was also overwhelmed by this big scene.

Guo Tailai has studied sculpture and orthodox aesthetics seriously, but he found that no matter how beautiful the lines are, they seem to be inferior to the simplest straight lines of dozens of tons of gold bricks in front of him. Generally speaking, it is beauty that gives life and value to works of art, but in turn, value sometimes seems to make certain beauty. These golden "bricks" in front of you clearly prove this point. Who would find it beautiful if replaced with real bricks of the same shape and size?

This time Prince Sheikh and Guo Tai came here, but they took Prince Sheikh's Boeing 747-400 luxury private jet, which had a lot of capacity besides the entourage. It doesn't take much to transport oil, but it is still fully capable of transporting dozens of tons of gold.

Gold, a natural currency heavy metal, is the hard currency that Guo Tailai asked for, and it can be directly exchanged for cash at any time. If this thing can't pay, what else can pay?

"Mr. T, I have satisfied all your requirements." Saddam enjoyed the shocked gazes of the two, and slowly supported Guo Tailai and asked: "So, when can you start nursing?"

"Let's take a day off today and visit the museum." Speaking of it, Saddam was abiding by the rules. Guo Tailai replied to Saddam without saying a word: "It will start tomorrow morning."

"My chief guard will take you to visit the National Museum." Saddam nodded without even asking the price: "This palace is your residence in Iraq, and you can tell the housekeeper here if you need anything. Meet all your needs. Tomorrow morning, I will bring someone over."

Returning to the hall again, Saddam left directly, leaving the palace to the two and their entourage, not worried at all that they would remove all the gold here. Of course, even if Guo Tailai and Prince Sheikh wanted to move away, it might not be possible. This is their territory.

Saddam's place of residence would not be known to Guo Tailai and Prince Sheikh, and he didn't even disclose any information when he left.

The chief guard accompanied Guo Tailai and Prince Sheikh to the National Museum. In order to make the two people visit more comfortably, the National Museum is directly closed for half a day. The curator of the museum personally accompanied Guo Tailai and Prince Sheikh to personally explain each collection that the two distinguished guests were interested in.

"Absorption complete!"

Standing in front of the bronze head of Sargon II, Guo Tailai was full of emotion.

The Mesopotamian Plain, where the Mesopotamia is located, gave birth to a splendid civilization. The Sumerian civilization existed in the 4th millennium BC. It has a long history. What a pity!

Guo Tailai left the National Museum of Iraq with a sad face. Prince Sheikh thought that Guo Tailai was also shocked by the long-standing civilization in this land. Although he left in the middle of the visit, he did not say a word.

"G!" Back in the palace, Prince Sheikh deliberately pulled Guo Tailai into the courtyard of the palace, pretending to enjoy the scenery outside, and found a chance to remind Guo Tailai in a low voice: "If Saddam brings Uday over tomorrow, No matter how much you hate him in your heart, you must do your best to take care of him."

"Why?" Guo Tailai asked.

"Saddam is very suspicious. He deliberately told you that Uday attacked you, just to test whether you will hold back because of it." Prince Sheikh glanced around and said in a low voice: "Trust me, My friend, if you don't satisfy Saddam, I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to leave Baghdad. I was careless, this guy is a madman!"
