N-A-A Chapter 362
Chapter 362
November.
At the League of Nations General Assembly, the League of Nations almost unanimously passed Resolution 678, requiring Babylon to unconditionally withdraw from the occupied oil country, with the final date being January 15 of the following year.
At the same time, the League of Nations passed Resolution 660, authorizing the implementation of Resolution 678 by all necessary means.
The shadow of war loomed deeper and deeper over the Gulf.
The proven oil reserves in the Gulf region account for about 65% of the world's total, and the daily crude oil exports account for about 45% of the international crude oil market.
It can be said that the Gulf region is the economic lifeline of the world.
Whenever Babylon moved to another place, such as Africa or the Caribbean, no one would care about what he did.
Unfortunately, he touched someone else's cake, and the cake of the world's largest interest group.
This wave, he was actually not wronged to be beaten.
He has ambitions, but he does not have the strength to match them.
On January 15, the eyes of the world were focused on this area, and everyone's eyes were on Babylon and its president Shadamu.
Some newspaper commentators speculated whether Babylon would compromise at the last minute?
During this period, a certain unscrupulous crow even offered odds on this matter in major gambling platforms and casinos.
"Babylon compromises at 0.5 to 1."
"Other mediation forces intervened and finally achieved results, 1 to 1."
"Babylon insisted on challenging the authority of the League of Nations, 2 to 1."
...
As for many scattered bets, such as whether to compromise in the morning or in the afternoon, there are even bets accurate to the hour or even minute.
Gamblers are very curious about this novel poison method.
Then, after checking the information again, it turned out that the first to offer this bet was a newly established gambling platform in Las Vegas, the lighthouse country, Crow Gambling.
Perhaps ordinary people don't know what this crow means? But this group of people in the intelligence community know the background of this platform.
Presumably, this is a subsidiary of Crow All Products, right?
...
"Hey, Fengyun, did you open that Crow Spinach? Do you think there will be external forces joining this storm?" Alexander called Fengyun and asked curiously.
It is said that he privately bought a bet of 10,000 yuan, betting that Babylon would compromise at the last minute. After all, this is the way for small countries to survive.
"Old man, don't be funny, how is this possible? If your two largest countries don't step down, who else dares to step down? Or, is it that your country has decided to step down?" Fengyun asked curiously.
The butterfly's wings have begun to flutter. He is not sure whether the world will continue to follow the original timeline?
"How is this possible? Our great country will not get stuck in such a mess." Alexander immediately denied Fengyun's speculation.
With Alexander's accurate information, Fengyun breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the other party didn't leave, it would be fine.
Now the platform has received tens of millions of bets, and at least 10 million are bets on the last moment. There may be other forces to mediate.
After all, in this world, it has never happened that one person fights against the entire League of Nations alone.
He smiled and said to Alexander: "If you don't leave for this kind of thing, how can you expect someone to leave?"
"Then why do you set the odds so low?" Alexander asked curiously.
Since no one is leaving, shouldn't the odds be higher to attract people to place bets?
"Old man, in terms of business vision, the difference between us is not a little bit. There are always some smart people in this world who think they have seen through everything..."
"Okay, kid, you are killing pigs here." After Fengyun's reminder, Alexander also figured it out.
Smart people always think that their ideas are well thought out, and Fengyun harvests these smart people.
"By the way, old man, you care so much about the odds, did you buy it too?" Fengyun asked curiously.
"Ahem." Alexander coughed twice embarrassedly. "Just play a few hands, just play a few hands, isn't this a good start for you?"
"Which side did you buy?" Fengyun asked more and more curiously.
"Of course it's the odds that Babylon compromised. Could it be that old guy Shadamu really dares to be an enemy of the League of Nations?"
"But, this odds is not high, are you buying it too?"
"Make a little money, make a little money."
"How much did you buy?"
"500,000, 500,000 US dollars."
With a puff, FengyunHe spit out the water he had just drunk.
"Old man, you've staked half of your fortune, and you're still making a little money. Do you want to bankrupt me?" Fengyun said bluntly.
"Small gambling is good for your mood." Alexander smiled awkwardly.
Fengyun suddenly felt a little pity for the pressure.
If this old guy loses all his money here, I wonder if he will come to chop him with a knife?
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but remind him with concern: "Old man, listen to my advice, small gambling is good for your mood, big gambling is harmful to your health, you are gambling like a gambler."
Alexander immediately heard the meaning of the words.
"Why, do you think this war will start and Babylon will not compromise? Why, do you have inside information, tell me."
Alexander looked at this matter from a very military perspective. In the end, his analysis was that Babylon would never be stubborn until the last moment, and would eventually choose to compromise.
"Old man, you think too much. How could I have such a news channel? It's just my personal guess.
Based on my understanding of Sha Damu, he may not be a coward when the time comes."
This can be regarded as Fengyun's last rescue for Alexander.
If Alexander is stubborn, then he has no choice. If the other party insists on giving him money, is there any reason for him to refuse?
"You kid, do you want to cheat me of my money?" Alexander suddenly said vigilantly.
Fengyun was speechless.
"Old man, is it that serious? I don't even care about your little tricks."
Alexander hung up the phone half-believingly. Based on his understanding of Fengyun, you don't know whether the words in this kid's mouth are true or false?
After a while, the phone rang again.
However, this time the caller was Qin Huanxi.
"Boss, a sum of 10 million US dollars has been transferred to our platform account. They bought that Babylon will hold on to the last moment and then go to war."
