Xu Cheng asked, "Are you going to pay or not?"
"I …" Haber couldn't even smile. "Let me think about it. A billion dollars isn't something that can be paid in a short period of time."
"You can talk to the team you found. When you want to pay with them is your business," Xu Cheng said.
"Let's eat breakfast first, let me calm down. Your bet is a bit big, I need some time to catch my breath. " Haber sat down, and without waiting for Xu Cheng to leave, the two of them started eating a sumptuous breakfast.
Xu Cheng said to Haber's assistant, "Go prepare breakfast for me, I'm going to bring it to my wife."
Haber's assistant nodded, turned around, and left.
Xu Cheng looked at Haber and said, "I like the feeling of being surrounded by people. If there's a chance in the future, you should come to my territory too."
Haber: "Where? Huaxia? "
Xu Cheng: "No, the Land of Mercenaries."
Haber: "Whatever, I still want to live a few more years. I don't want my private plane to be shot down by missiles from the airspace of the Land of Mercenaries. That's a place where no plane can survive. After the price of oil rose in recent years, the dictator there became even crazier. "
Xu Cheng: "It's fine, I will allow your plane to fly around in the future. But we'll talk about it later. "
Haber looked at Xu Cheng in all seriousness and said, "Are you really planning on going there?"
"Why not?" Xu Cheng had a look of certainty on his face. "Just like you said, there are fugitives from all over the world there. They have nowhere to go, and no country is willing to provide them with shelter. So, there are all kinds of people there. It's like an upgraded version of Mexico's Sin City. I like the world of the strong. There, there's no law. Fists, bullets, and more people are the law. Whoever can be more ruthless, has more people, is stronger, and has more territory."
Haber laughed. "But the point is, do you have firearms?"
Xu Cheng: "No, but I can rob them."
Haber: "Then do you have any brothers? They have thousands of people in their alliance and mercenary groups, and even the low-level ones have hundreds of people. In the past, they could conquer the world with just a gun, but now, all the advanced equipment, drones, and all kinds of strategies are being operated by people. Even the masterminds behind the scenes. What do you have? "
Xu Cheng was speechless. "No, right now I only have around 50 people."
Haber laughed, a very disdainful laugh. "A commander without an army? Are you going to be the cannon fodder of those mercenaries? "
Xu Cheng suddenly said, "Then what if these 50 people are only second to me?"
Haber raised an eyebrow. "Impossible! No matter what, you have the strength of an S rank. I don't believe that a country can produce so many experts with 50 S ranks. "
"That's because you are a frog at the bottom of a well," Xu Cheng said in disdain.
Haber wasn't involved in international disputes, so he definitely didn't know about the individual forces behind the country.
Even America's 72 Demons of Solomon and Seven Deadly Sins were all at least S-class and above.
"There will only be more in the future." Xu Cheng said, "But right now, I'm just wasting my time talking to you. Everything depends on whether you can do it or not."
"Awesome my ass. You're killing me for free. I gave you 1 billion, and you want me to risk being investigated by Interpol to help you find a team to build the munitions factory? Don't tell me that the so-called exchange of gifts is just the beautiful words you just said? "
"No, let's eat breakfast first," Xu Cheng said.
Haber glared at him. "Eat my a * s, I feel like I got scammed by you. I'm taking back my words of helping you find a team and paying the bill."
Xu Cheng said nonchalantly, "Whatever. From the moment you met me, you already fell into my trap. If you don't want to exchange, then I will go find someone else. I think there are a lot more people in this world that are more daring than you."
Haber snorted. "You think there are that many rich people in this world? Can they help you find a team to build an underground munitions factory in the Land of Mercenaries and pay the bill for free? You think 1 billion dollars is a small amount? Only a rich person like me can understand how stingy those rich people are. The more you know how to make money, the more stingy you are. If you want them to take out 1 billion to make 200 million, they will do it. But if you want them to take out 1 billion for free, haha, don't even mention 1 billion, even 10 million would make their hearts ache! What kind of gift could be worth 1 billion dollars? Those famous paintings and historical relics might be worth that much, but do you think those are common on the streets? Also, you have to find the right person to pay the right price. Sometimes, don't look down on it just because it's a priceless treasure. To those who don't like it, they wouldn't even feel the pinch if they destroyed it. Don't look at how I don't care about money, but when it comes to business, I'm pretty good at planning and investing. "
Xu Cheng teased, "I thought you guys just dig up some crude oil and sell it."
Haber awkwardly retorted, "Even if that's the case, we still have to control the amount of oil we produce and who we sell to. How do we control the market and how do we control the global oil price? These are all technical skills. What do you know? I shouldn't be talking to you about this this early in the morning."
"Then what if the gift is a few drops of the most expensive liquid in the world?" Xu Cheng suddenly said with a smile that wasn't quite a smile.
"The most expensive liquid?" Haber said in disdain, "What the hell? Scorpion venom? A gallon is only 39 million dollars. How much do you think you need to exchange for 1 billion dollars? Also, what do I need that for? "
Xu Cheng smiled and didn't say anything, continuing to eat.
Just as Haber was rambling, his knife and fork suddenly stopped.
"The most expensive liquid? Wait a minute, if I'm not wrong, a week ago, the most expensive liquid was from Mandala? "
Xu Cheng smiled and said, "A single injection is 20 milliliters, and its current auction record is 3 billion dollars. How much do you think a drop is worth?"
Haber swallowed his saliva. "Are you kidding me?"
Xu Cheng: "I'm just giving you the most expensive liquid in the world, not Mandala's drug. But looking at your expression, it seems like you aren't looking forward to this cooperation. Forget it, I'll find someone else. I feel like 1 billion dollars is too much of a waste. "
"Wait … Wait a minute, my brother, my good brother." Haber was anxious. He immediately stood up and pulled Xu Cheng, looking anxious and eager. "It's good that you have something to say. Look at you, aren't you being serious? We're not joking, right? Let's go to my place and talk, haha. "
Xu Cheng stood there, not in a good mood, looking a bit unwilling.
Haber pulled Xu Cheng's arm like he was pulling a cow, and he anxiously tried to coax Xu Cheng, "The team, the funds, as well as your food, accommodation, and your wife's shopping expenses, it's all on me! Tell me, what is money? It's just paper! "
