Chapter 987: 541

He turned his head to look at Sean Knight:

"Mr. Knight, do you have any ideas? I would like to hear your opinion."

"Two methods. If we want to ensure safety, either give up part of the profits, or bring in foreign aid," Sean Knight said. "Otherwise, even with the help of the weapons in the Cave Storehouse, it would be very difficult to get through this!"

Hassan’s face showed a look of hesitation.

With so much at stake, what would be the cost of bringing in foreign aid?

But if a portion is given to other tribes, it’s also likely to be exploited by others in a time of vulnerability, turning a good situation bad.

What kind of foreign aid could be brought in now?

Had it been in the past, Elder Hassan would naturally prefer to distribute some supplies to other tribes, securing the lion’s share for his own tribe, maintaining peace and earning some favors.

However, during the period the Americans were stationed here, several tribes were instigated against each other, leading to frequent unrest. If not for the tribal elders’ forceful suppression, an outright fight might have been inevitable.

Though the Americans have left, relations between the tribes have not improved.

Hassan was very aware of the thoughts of the tribal elders. Even if he gave them some supplies, they would not be grateful, and might even sense weakness and demand more!

Reality is that cruel!

But foreign aid is not easy to request either!

After all, the powers that could reach this place now are few and far between.

The neighboring country is notoriously non-interventionist and rarely gives others a handle to criticize their actions.

There’s no way he could ask the Americans to come back.

And Russia is even less likely.

As for the United States, inviting them would be akin to inviting wolves into the house—the other tribes would unite against his own.

So, what to do?

He suddenly thought of Sean Knight’s identity, had an idea, and looked up to ask Sean Knight:

"So, Mr. Knight, do you have any suggestions if we were to bring in foreign aid?"

Sean Knight nodded and said:

"Of course, I have some thoughts. Actually, Elder Hassan, you should be aware that among these supplies, there’s a share that belongs to Principal Miller and me.

The value of these supplies is at least ten million dollars. And there’s also a vein of a golden mine—"

Hassan’s breath suddenly became rapid!

A golden vein!

Even a small golden mine is enough to provide for the tribal residents for a long time!

These are resources for a long-term plan!

"So, if Elder Hassan doesn’t mind, I can call over the people from my Private Security Company. All members are veterans from China, and their main mission is to protect my industries..."

As soon as Mr. Hassan heard it was Sean Knight’s security company, he immediately felt relieved and anxiously asked:

"Mr. Knight, when can your people arrive?"

"If Elder Hassan is in a hurry, a hundred men can arrive by tonight," Sean Knight said confidently. The American base here has an airport runway, and his large airplane can definitely take off and land from here.

The reason he mentioned "by tonight" is mainly because procedures can be a bit troublesome. Once the flights actually start, it can be very quick!

"That’s wonderful!" Although Hassan had confidence in the combat capabilities of his tribal warriors, a moment’s thought told him that he couldn’t possibly believe that his warriors, including those from other tribes, could compare with China’s regular army!

With a hundred Chinese veterans arriving, he himself would have the confidence to face the Bagel Tribe without fear!

Sean Knight and Elijah Hastings left the Cave Storehouse to arrange for the airplane and personnel.

With the current equipment here, Sean Knight instructed his people to not even bring equipment, just fly the people over, and then handed over the task of maintaining communication and giving flight directions and coordinates to Lincoln Harrington and Douglas Cooper.

Clarence Hughes stared at the supplies in the Cave Storehouse with his mouth agape.

"Mr. Knight, all these items... they’re really all ours now?"

"Of course," Sean Knight said with a smile. He could understand Clarence Hughes’s shock, just like when he first opened a container, with only several tens of thousands of dollars to his name, and found a set of armor that could sell for several million dollars, all his own!

It was a similar euphoria.

"Your dream can finally be realized. Just your share is worth several million dollars. You’re now a billionaire, you can spend as you wish!"

"I... I just want to take the money and go home right now!" Clarence Hughes suddenly became a bit nervous.

He looked around at the familiar faces, and they started to make him feel a bit insecure.

"Actually... it’s not impossible," Sean Knight thought for a moment and said, "The items here, I estimate are worth about ten million dollars.

You can give me your share earlier. Later tonight, when my plane arrives, I can give you the money, and you can take the plane back."

Sean Knight understood the current thoughts and feelings of Clarence Hughes. Suddenly becoming rich in a foreign land, surrounded by only a few countrymen, and in a war-torn area— it’s impossible not to feel some psychological pressure.

After all, you can’t see into another’s heart. If Elder Hassan had a change of heart, killing them and burying them here, there would be nowhere to cry for justice!

He admired Sean Knight’s calmness, but he simply couldn’t manage it himself.

"Alright, let’s go and talk to Elder Hassan," Sean Knight said, "After that, we should head up."
