Rebirth in 1985

Chapter 791 The Second Prince's Purpose

The Second Prince kept his word. Three days later, he finally landed in Africa with a large group of bodyguards on the special plane of the Saudi Arabian royal family. Lu Shaohua also gave him enough face and came out to greet him in person, which made the Second Prince very happy.

What kind of status does Lu Shaohua have? On the surface, Lu Shaohua seems to be his equal, but the Second Prince knows very well that he and Lu Shaohua are not of the same level at all. To be precise, he is of the same generation as Li Zhijie and others, while Lu Shaohua is a generation higher than him.

Lu Shaohua's personal appearance to greet them was considered a great honor to the Second Prince. A lot of subtle changes took place in the middle. The Second Prince, who was a little uneasy at first, was relieved. Both sides were in high spirits. It didn't seem like a meeting between representatives of two forces, but rather like a meeting of old friends. The atmosphere was very good.

The distance from Saudi Arabia to Africa is extremely long. An ordinary flight takes at least fifteen hours. Fortunately, the second prince's private plane was not too backward and arrived in only nearly twelve hours, which shortened the time by three hours.

However, it was more than ten hours after all, and even an iron man could not hold on. If it were not for the need to maintain the image of the royal family, he would have collapsed from exhaustion long ago. So, when Lu Shaohua welcomed them into the main building, the second prince could not hold on any longer and looked tired.

Seeing the exhausted Second Prince, Lu Shaohua didn't say anything. After asking for the Second Prince's opinion, he asked Li Zhijie to take him to a luxury villa in the community and sent more than a dozen bodyguards to guard the villa to ensure his safety.

Originally, they were considered safe after entering the Tiger Roar Base, and there would be no danger at all. However, it is better to be safe than sorry. Lu Shaohua did not want any accidents to happen. More importantly, doing so showed his respect for the Second Prince, so he still had to put in some superficial effort.

Li Zhijie obviously understood what Lu Shaohua meant. He did not say much and quickly made arrangements. Including the accompanying personnel, Li Zhijie arranged a place for them to rest. Then he led Qian Qian and others to Lu Shaohua's residence.

It is true that the Tiger Roar Base has a very good relationship with the Saudi Arabian royal family, but the Tiger Roar Base has too many secrets, so Li Zhijie and his team have to be careful. Even though they had made arrangements before the Second Prince and his party arrived, just in case, Li Zhijie and his team still came to Lu Shaohua's residence to see if Lu Shaohua had any other instructions.

There are two places with the highest level of confidentiality in the Tiger Roar Base. One is the oil storage warehouse, and the other is a secret base underground, which is where the weapons are manufactured.

Of course, the confidentiality level of these two places is only for internal use. If it is for the outside world, the entire Tiger Roar Base is a place with a higher confidentiality level. Ordinary people who can step into the Tiger Roar Base must go through layers of inspection, and then the only place they can go is the main building. Other places are not allowed to enter.

The second prince is an exception. He can enter the Tiger Roar Base and set foot in other places, including the Tiger Roar Mercenary Group Base, but he has no right to enter the secret base. Well, to be more precise, Lu Shaohua does not allow him to enter. As for the oil storage warehouse, there is no defense against him. If the second prince is interested, Lu Shaohua doesn't mind taking him to visit.

Lu Shaohua had made up his mind and naturally did not hide it. When Li Zhijie and others asked about it, Lu Shaohua directly ordered that except for the secret base, the Saudi Arabian royal family could go anywhere without any hindrance.

Of course, Lu Shaohua added one more sentence at the end, that is, if the entourage who came with the second prince wanted to visit the Tiger Roar Base, they had to be accompanied by their own people and could not barge in randomly. This could be considered a disguised form of surveillance.

With Lu Shaohua's permission, Li Zhijie and his team seemed much more relaxed, because before this, Li Zhijie and his team had made corresponding arrangements. Now that Lu Shaohua's regulations have come out, they basically don't need to make any more arrangements. They just need to arrange a few confidants to follow the royal members of Saudi Arabia.

"During this period, the Tiger Roar Mercenaries have been on alert, and the atmosphere inside the base has also changed. Just now, I found that the Second Prince's entourage seemed to have noticed something. I believe they will tell the Second Prince." Qian Qian suddenly interrupted, paused for a moment, and then turned to the main topic. "Well, what I want to say is, will the Second Prince guess that we are related to the changes in the situation a while ago because of the actions of the Tiger Roar Mercenaries?"

Qian Qian's suspicion was not without reason. After all, the Second Prince was not a fool. On the contrary, he was an extremely smart person, and it was normal for him to think of something. Qian Qian was afraid that the Second Prince would find out that the coup in the seven countries was related to the Tiger Roar Base, and whether it would have any adverse effects on the Tiger Roar Base.

Hearing this, Lu Shaohua did not say anything, but nodded, thought for a moment, waved his hand, and said, "It doesn't matter if they find out. They have to keep it a secret. After all, their royal family is protected by our Tiger Roar Base behind the scenes, so they can develop smoothly today. If they leave us, they will be nothing, and may even be affected by the war."

Lu Shaohua didn't care and seemed very confident. However, where did Lu Shaohua's confidence come from?

Needless to say, as Lu Shaohua said, the Saudi Arabian royal family is originally protected by the Tiger Roar Base. From a certain perspective, the Saudi Arabian royal family is a subordinate department of the Tiger Roar Base. Once any turmoil occurs in the Tiger Roar Base, the Saudi Arabian royal family will not be much better off.

Therefore, even if they discovered the secret that the Tiger Roar Base controlled the seven countries, they would keep it secret at all costs, otherwise it would be a disaster for them.

It has to be said that what Lu Shaohua said made a lot of sense. Everyone agreed with Lu Shaohua's point of view and nodded.

But at the same time, Li Shangkui nodded to show that he understood, and then raised another question. "I have also read the plan that Zhijie sent to the Saudi Arabian royal family. I can understand all the details in it. I wonder why the smart second prince can't understand it? Therefore, I have reason to believe that the second prince suddenly came to Africa for impure purposes."

Li Shangkui's words sound a bit profound, but we have to say that what Li Shangkui said makes sense and he really hits the point.

"Ha ha……"

Lu Shaohua laughed. He knew that the second prince's intentions were not pure, but he just didn't say it. Now that Li Shangkui had exposed it, Lu Shaohua wanted to bring this issue up for discussion and let everyone guess. "Tell me what other intentions he has?"

"I think they are here for the mineral resources." Li Zhijie spoke first.

It was not unreasonable for Li Zhijie to think so, because long before, the cooperation between Phoenix Group and African countries had been widely reported, and the Second Prince knew Lu Shaohua's identity. It was understandable that he came for the mineral resources and wanted to share some of the profits!

"I think he came for our arms. After all, everyone outside knows that the reason why African countries were able to repel the US army this time was entirely because of the arms provided by our Tiger Roar Base. Saudi Arabia is not very peaceful in the Middle East either, so it is understandable that they want to get some arms to ensure safety." Xie Jianwei also expressed his opinion after Li Zhijie.

"I think both are possible." Qian Qian said with a serious face.

"Brother Li, what do you think?" Lu Shaohua nodded, ignored everyone else, looked at Li Shangkui and asked.

In the past, Lu Shaohua would not have had any opinion of Li Shangkui, but since coming to Africa, Li Shangkui has changed completely. He has a unique way of looking at problems and can often see the core.

That is why Lu Shaohua asked him questions to see what Li Shangkui thought about this matter.

"..." Li Shangkui was silent for a while, feeling somewhat helpless. He was not a very talkative person, and he usually spoke because he thought it was necessary to say it. Now that Lu Shaohua asked for his opinion, it was the first time in history. How could Li Shangkui not feel helpless?

However, since Lu Shaohua had asked, even if Li Shangkui didn't want to speak, he had to make a statement. "My opinion is similar to everyone else's, but the second prince is a smart man. He can't come here for mineral resources because he knows that this is like snatching food from a tiger's mouth. He can't and doesn't dare to do that. Well, it's more likely that he came here for arms, and there's a high probability that he came for nuclear weapons."

It's not that Li Shangkui deliberately targeted Li Shangkui and refuted his views, but Li Shangkui told the truth because Li Zhijie's speculation was a bit unrealistic. No, after he finished speaking, Li Shangkui gave Li Zhijie a kind look and shrugged, indicating that he had no intention of refuting Li Zhijie's speculation.

Li Zhijie was not a stingy person, and he understood Li Shangkui very well, so he smiled, shook his head, patted his forehead, and said, "I missed the point."

Lu Shaohua had been watching the little actions of Li Shangkui and Li Zhijie. In the end, Li Shangkui looked like he admitted his mistake, which amused Lu Shaohua. He said jokingly, "Brother Zhijie, did you devote all your energy to the bed last night?"

It was common knowledge that Li Zhijie had married a French wife. And what kind of country is France? It is a romantic and open country. Besides, foreign girls are better in bed, so it was not without basis for Lu Shaohua to make this joke.

"..." Speechless, Li Zhijie was extremely speechless and could not find any words to refute Lu Shaohua.

This time, Li Zhijie couldn't find words to refute that Lu Shaohua's joke was real, and everyone's face showed, "It turns out that we had a big fight in bed last night, and we used up all our energy, which led to the loss of energy."

Embarrassing, extremely embarrassing. Li Zhijie was thick-skinned, but that was limited. Being watched by eight eyes from four people, he couldn't hold on any longer no matter how thick-skinned he was.

But this was just a small episode. After everyone laughed, Lu Shaohua came forward and turned the topic back to the main topic. "Okay, let's get back to the main topic."
