Chapter 886: Forming an alliance with the oil tyrants
Abdullah returned to the port with Lu Yao's conditions.
The Roman fleet had retreated, and the Arcadia Sailors were the only sights in the harbor, along with numerous merchant ships. However, in front of the Paradise Sailors, these merchant ships were so weak that they had no sense of existence.
When Abdullah truthfully explained Lu Yao's conditions, the oil tyrants immediately became two factions.
One faction agreed to form an alliance with Lu Yao, hoping to use the deterrent power of the Xanadu sailors to consolidate the Arab world's dominance over the Mediterranean-Red Sea-Indian Ocean route.
The other faction is against forming an alliance with Lu Yao, believing that this is luring wolves into the house, saying that although the Xanadu Sailor does not show strong aggression now, it does not mean that there will be no aggression in the future, after all, this route is of great value, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is the only communication channel between the two regions.
So the two sides insisted on their own words and launched a fierce argument.
Abdullah looked at the noisy venue and felt only pain in his eggs. Naturally, he hoped to form an alliance with Lu Yao and become allies in the practical sense, and the two sides would benefit each other.
It cannot but be said here that the oil tyrants have a sense of crisis and like to arm themselves at a high cost, but it backfires. In reality, Saudi Arabia is the biggest Kaizi and is deeply loved by various major countries.
Lu Yao has the most dominant ship in his hand, as well as the black technology of dragon cannon, and it is beneficial and harmless to form an alliance with him. With his understanding of Lu Yao, he is more inclined to this point of view.
However, the oil tyrants are very entrenched, but the number is also very large. Especially in the Arab world, where a man can marry four wives, and there is no family planning, and the rulers of various countries have more children than the other. In the virtual world, trouble comes.
Everyone has money, and they still want to rule each other by their nominal seniority?
As a result, when there are more people, there will naturally be more differences. In the past, everyone was fighting for the Arab world, and differences were hidden, but now Lu Yao's condition immediately brought this problem to the surface.
Will it cause a civil unrest?
Thinking of this, Abdullah couldn't help it and shouted, "It's all quiet." ”
Both sides fell silent. The argument entered a white heat, and everyone was annoyed, just as Abdullah spoke up at this time and gave everyone a step.
Abdullah waited until the scene quieted down, and said in a deep voice: "There are many advantages to forming an alliance with him, first of all, we can get enough dragon cannons, and we don't have to repeat the disaster that just ended. ”
Everyone looked at each other and thought it was true.
It doesn't matter if you can get great benefits in the alliance with Lu Yao, what matters is whether you can get enough dragon artillery. Everyone is used to the artillery, and if it hadn't been artillery, it wouldn't have been able to live.
Abdullah spoke of the second benefit: "Secondly, his Xanadu Sailor is very powerful. We need such a strong force to maintain our current position. Of course, I mean that he has excellent deterrent, not that we need his support to stabilize the situation. ”
Everyone smiled. This explanation is too appetizing. Yes, we don't need outsiders to intervene, we just need the deterrent power of the Xanadu Sailor himself.
Abdullah was secretly relieved to see that everyone had no objections, and he only felt that it was more difficult than fighting a big war with the Roman Empire. At least the Roman Empire had to cross the Mediterranean to bring Alexandria. In the past, when there were no dragon cannons, weren't everyone still stubbornly resisting the offensive of the Roman Empire?
So he struck while the iron was hot, lost no time in initiating a vote in the shortest possible time, and smoothly passed it, reaching a consensus on an alliance with Lu Yao.
"Wait, shouldn't we deepen our relationship in order to secure our covenant?" Someone suddenly screamed.
Abdullah was so angry that he meowed to this point and anyone else wanted to play with the moth? So he followed the sound and saw the man who spoke, his face was almost as black as the bottom of a pot, and he interrupted the man on the spot: "Aziz, shut up." ”
Aziz spread his hands innocently: "Abdullah, although you are my own brother, you can't stop me from making suggestions that are beneficial to all of us. ”
Abdullah was furious: "Shut up, I know what you're up to." I'm against it. ”
The others saw that the two brothers had a conflict, and they were happy to see the excitement, and they closed their mouths with a smile one by one, and quietly became beautiful men.
When Aziz saw that his brother was really angry, he didn't dare to continue to challenge his brother's authority, so he muttered a sentence and honestly shut his mouth.
Abdullah secretly breathed a sigh of relief and immediately left the venue. He knew what his younger brother wanted to do, it was nothing more than trying to entrap Lu Yao and challenge his authority. He would never allow this to happen, even if he had to do it, he would do it himself.
Back in the city, Abdullah met Lu Yao without paying much price this time, and as soon as they met, he said straight to the point: "We agree to your conditions." When we signed the covenant, we were the closest friends. ”
Lu Yao smiled and took out the system contract that had been prepared and handed it over.
Abdullah looked down and looked at it carefully, making sure that there were no loopholes in the above clauses, especially the two most critical clauses.
First, both parties shall not violate the covenant in any form and cause damage to the other party, including but not limited to monetary and other losses.
Second, the two sides have the responsibility and obligation to safeguard each other's interests from any form of damage, including but not limited to sending troops and providing assistance.
Abdullah confirmed that the two key terms were correct, and happily signed his name, and then lowered the contract. Lu Yao was even more refreshing, and he signed quickly. Soon, the contract turned into a little starlight and disappeared into the bodies of both parties, and the covenant was officially reached.
Officially allied with Lu Yao, the smile on Abdullah's face became thicker and thicker, and he pulled Lu Yao to talk. Here I have to say that the oil tyrant is an oil tyrant after all, no matter whether he is proficient in astronomy and geography, he suddenly smiled.
"I have a daughter who is a shining jewel in the Arab world. I think you'll get along very well. My daughter is also willing to be your guide and let you see the sights of the Arab world. ”
Lu Yao was stunned, shook his head and smiled.
That's how the world is fucked up. When you have no power and power, it is not easy to find a wife, and you have to pay all kinds of things. But when you have status, there are a lot of people who send women upside down.
Not to mention the far-reaching, the near-one Ruying Island sent the Black Widow, and now, Abdullah also wants to send his daughter.
Lu Yao decisively refused. Black Widow has no choice, astrologers are rare, so they can only laugh and accept it. But these oil tyrants have nothing but money. If you want to make money from them, there are a lot of means and methods. There's really no need to accept a player, even if it's beautiful.
Abdullah expressed deep regret when he saw Lu Yao's refusal, but he did not continue this slightly embarrassing topic. After all, local tyrants want face.
Seeing Abdullah away, Lu Yao breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed his temples a little tiredly.
The final layout has been completed with the last piece of the puzzle, and the next step is to wait for the update of the new expansion.
