Rebirth of the fighting nation's rich second generation

After Andre successfully completed the task assigned to him by the boss in Baxi, he took Alexander and the others back to London immediately.

At the Imperial Hotel in London, Vladimir held a grand dinner for them, and invited the wives and girlfriends of the guys who were imprisoned for him to the scene.

It has to be said that his method was very good at buying people's hearts. At the dinner, not only Alexander and the others burst into tears, but even the housekeeper Sergey once again felt that the young master is a person who values ​​affection and righteousness. Personality is too violent.

After the dinner, he didn't go back to the manor immediately, but met Prince Hussein's two special envoys, butler Bazar and his business agent Abdullah in his office.

The two confidants around the prince rarely get together.

This time they made a special trip to London, in addition to spending time with their family on vacation, on the other hand, they wanted to solicit his opinion on the revision of the emirate's oil protection law.

Of course, asking about Renato was just in passing.

Previously, under Vladimir's suggestion, Prince Hussein decisively adopted the method of "law amendment and diplomacy" going hand in hand.

In terms of diplomacy, they have frequently contacted some of the world's major oil-producing countries, and ignored the warnings of the Americans.

As for the revision of the law, it proposes a sustainable energy development strategy and implements a rationing system for oil companies. That is to say, once the newly revised law is successfully passed, the annual output of the Emirates Petroleum Company will have to be determined by the Petroleum Council of the Emirates. , and the oil license in the hands of the oil company must be reviewed every two years. In addition, there are other supporting rules and regulations. It can be said that this law restricts the Emirates Oil Company in the hands of the Americans from all aspects.

However, the current problem is that the support rate of this law is not high.

The main reason is that the pro-Rice forces in the country are too large, and the business contacts between the Americans and them are very frequent. For example, King Alman's brothers are also energy tycoons such as oil and natural gas. They deal with the Americans all the year round. There are also many assets in the United States.

To put it bluntly, these guys with huge wealth are just American guys in Middle Eastern robes.

It is almost impossible to get them to support this law.

Abdullah shook his head, sighed and said, "Vladimir, the number of votes for the cabinet is now 85. We are sure that we can get 30 votes, and there are 10 swing votes. As for the remaining 45 votes. They are all oil tycoons, if the revised law can be passed, it is tantamount to letting them tie a rope around their own necks, and they will not be willing."

Bazar also agreed with Abdullah's statement, "So we have been carrying out the revision of this law in secret. We are worried that if it is not passed publicly, the prestige of His Royal Highness will plummet."

"How likely is it to win all the 10 swing votes?" Vladimir actually did not expect that there are many spokespersons and lobbyists for the Americans in the Emirates. No wonder they adopted delaying tactics from the beginning. No attention.

"Actually, the 10 votes mainly depends on whether we can get 45 votes from among the 3 votes. If we can, then it is not a big problem."

"43 votes to 42 votes?" Vladimir smiled.

Both Abdullah and Bazar couldn't help but nodded, "That's right, as long as it's over half."

"To be honest, more than half of the requirements are too low."

These two confidantes also agree with this sentence. After all, Prince Hussein is already the crown prince and the future successor of the emirate. If someone does not give face at this time, it is foreseeable that even if he is in power, he will face many difficulties and problems. .

"But those are all oil tycoons, what can they do?" Both Abdullah and Bazar also knew that the oil tycoons in the emirates had more or less royal blood, and the network of relationships was criss-crossed. If you are not careful, you may stab King Alman.

"This may be an all-round reform." Vladimir smiled.

Abdullah and Bazar were taken aback. They might know the meaning of their old friend's words.

But right now they need clarification, not speculation.

"Old man, there are only three of us here, you might as well be more specific."

"Okay, then I'll just say it straight, anyway, I'm not from your emirate." Vladimir laughed.

It turned out that he just wanted to take this opportunity to let Prince Hussein launch an anti-corruption campaign in the country.Although the emirate is very rich and oil is everywhere, 80% of the country's wealth is in the hands of 20% of the population, and the remaining 80% of the population only has 20% of the wealth.

According to the ranking of the world's per capita annual income, the emirate is outside the dozens. Such data is obviously not commensurate with the country's huge wealth.

"Anti-corruption?" Abdullah and Bazar were a little messed up when they heard it. Their buttocks were actually not clean. What they were worried about now was whether they would join in the anti-corruption?

"Of course it's targeted anti-corruption. Not only can wealth be redistributed centrally, but more importantly, dissidents can be eliminated. I believe that under this high-pressure situation, Prince Hussein's prestige will reach an unprecedented height. .”

Vladimir's so-called "targeted anti-corruption" naturally gave Abdullah and Bazar a temporary reassurance.

However, regarding the viewpoint of "anti-corruption", they still tend to be neutral for the time being.

"Aside from anti-corruption, is there any other way?"

Vladimir smiled: "The current solution is either to have a showdown with the Americans directly, or to have a fierce internal struggle. Apart from that, there is no other way."

"Okay." Abdullah heaved a sigh of relief. He really had to discuss the anti-corruption with Bazar beside him. Otherwise, he would really kill a thousand enemies and injure himself by eight hundred.

Before the conversation ended, naturally, Abdullah also asked about Renato's situation. As usual, Rahil did not say a word, and the whole person was imprisoned in the well-shaped prison.

The idea of ​​his family's request for the release of Rahil was also dismissed by King Alman unceremoniously.

King Alman strongly stated that if Rahil did not cooperate, he would never allow him to come out.

If they cooperated, it would be no problem at all to be a civilian with no worries about food and clothing.

Several of Rahil's wives also tried to comfort him, but their persuasion was of no use at all. In the emirate, the status of women is generally not high.

"What's going on with Renato?"

"Unfortunately, it failed." Vladimir sighed.

"Failed?" Abdullah and Bazar couldn't help but looked at each other.

"Yes, we have blocked his escape gap from the front and back. Who knows that Renato is too cunning, he directly made a hidden cave in the middle of the tunnel, and escaped from there. Now more than ten of me The guy is still being held at the police station in Rio."

"It seems that Renato is not an easy guy." Abdullah felt a little regretful, "But old man, you should hurry up, the longer the time, the worse it will be for us. In addition, our main purpose this time is not to practice law and thunder. Nato, but want to tell you one thing again."

"What?" Vladimir seemed to sense from Abdullah's serious expression that this matter was not trivial.
