Chapter 278 Calling Big Brother

It is better to do one practical thing than to say a thousand big words.

Several people got out of the ambulance and it drove away, but this was just the beginning, not even the beginning, and it was still a long way from being completely safe.

At this point, Gao Yi should show Khalid what heroism and timely relief mean.

Gao Yi sat down, Lucy stood beside him a little nervously, and Luca looked a little ugly. He didn't want to spend money, but he was not the kind of person who would rather sacrifice his life than his money.

"Do you have an account? Can you receive money? I can't just give you a bunch of cash. The best way is to have an account that is safe enough but usable, the kind that can receive money in Tripoli."

Luca's tone was not very good. He had tried his best to match Gao Yi's aura of wealth and power, but it was not possible. His deep love for money prevented him from having the same aura of a wealthy man as Gao Yi.

Khalid was a little confused by the scene.

I've suffered poverty all my life, but no one has ever said anything like this.

You can risk your life to fight with others, even if it means risking your life, but you still can't get any money. I don't know what's going on today. Why do you give money right away?

Khalid was stunned for a long time, and finally said: "I have an account, it is the company account of Ziad Carpet Factory, which can receive foreign funds, but the amount of funds cannot be too large. If it is too large, it will be easy...easy...to be exposed."

Khalid spoke hesitantly because he saw a large sum of money coming in, but he didn't dare to accept it. This situation made him feel a little uncomfortable.

How about just taking the money and giving it a try?

Just when Khalid had this idea, Luca said with a sullen face: "Then this account cannot be called a safe account, but your company account can receive money, and you can withdraw cash from the bank in Tripoli, right?"

"Yes."

Luca raised his hand and said impatiently, "Okay, I'll give you a safe account abroad with $5 million in safe funds. This account is at your disposal, and you can use it to transfer money to your company account at any time."

As Luca spoke, he took out a pen, then a small notebook from his pocket and began to write.

There was a series of numbers, and letters and numbers below. After writing it, Luca tore off the paper and handed it to Khalid, saying, "The top is the account number, and the bottom is the password. The account number is a Swiss bank. This bank is relatively reliable now, but it will soon be unreliable, so you'd better transfer all the money within two years. Of course, this little money will be spent soon, so maybe you don't need to worry about these problems."

Luca's movements were like writing a check, but what he wrote was just a piece of paper after all.

Khalid took the note with a confused look on his face. He stared at it for a while and suddenly asked, "Is this five million?"

Luca said expressionlessly, "Do you have a mobile phone that can access the Internet? If so, I can teach you how to use it."

It's not that Khalid didn't believe that he received the five million, but he didn't believe that he received the five million so easily. It was Luca who taught him how to download mobile banking, how to access the online account, and then how to transfer 20,000 US dollars from Khalid's account to his company account.

This series of processes took about five minutes, and Jolson just threw it aside.

Gao Yi said impatiently: "Not ready yet? Do you have to be so careful?"

In fact, Gao Yi understood Khalid, because if he had met such a person and thrown five million to him, he would not have dared to believe it.

Khalid pulled one of his men over and whispered something in his ear, and then the man ran out quickly.

At this time, Khalid said to Gao Yi with a serious face: "If you play tricks on me, you will die miserably. Now..."

After thinking for a moment, Khalid looked determined and gave orders one after another. Then several people carried the unconscious Jolson and helped Feng Biao and others who had difficulty moving. They walked through a small door from the carpet factory's store and entered the factory area at the back.

The so-called factory area was naturally a handicraft workshop. There were several unfinished semi-finished carpets hanging in the workshop. Then a young man lifted up a carpet on the ground, revealing a wooden board underneath. He lifted up the board to reveal a large entrance to a hole in the ground.

Going down the tunnel, the tunnel was quite spacious. After walking up a few steps, there was a wooden ladder leading upwards. Several people carried Jolson up with difficulty, and then climbed up from the tunnel. There was a small house with extremely simple furnishings, but it was quite clean.

Too many people entered the hut, making it seem a bit crowded. But after Khalid gave a few instructions with a stern face, the door of the hut opened, revealing several small rooms with similar structures next to it.

"This is our last refuge and also our base camp. Your arrival will expose our base camp. I don't know how long it will take for someone to find this place."

Khalid's tone was very unfriendly when he said these words. Being forced to expose one's own lair would definitely make anyone feel uncomfortable.

After a few brief words, a man in his fifties was brought into the cabin. He was carrying a very old-fashioned medicine box. I guess he was the doctor.

Khalid spoke to the doctor, and it seemed that he had great respect for the doctor.

The doctor squatted down and looked at Jolson, who was covered in blood. He opened the box, took out a pair of scissors, cut open Jolson's trouser legs with a few strokes, looked at the injury, then looked up and started talking.

I don't understand, they are speaking Arabic.

Khalid looked unhappy. He looked at Gao Yi and seemed to be in hesitation.

Gao Yi couldn't help but ask, "What? His injury isn't too serious, how come he can't be saved?" Khalid whispered, "Yes, but it will take a lot of medicine, and our medicine is very precious."

Gao Yi looked speechless. He couldn't help but ask, "The medicine is precious? Buy it!"

Khalid looked at him as an idiot, but thinking that this idiot might be a big moneymaker, he could only suppress his anger and whispered, "All drugs are controlled. We are always being tracked. If we buy drugs and equipment needed for surgery, we may be discovered."

Gao Yi said helplessly: "Now whether you buy it or not, you will be exposed. Hurry up and save people. I will give you what you need."

Being afraid of being poor, saving has become a habit for them. It is still not certain whether the five million is real. Even if it is certain that he has five million, it is impossible to change the frugal habit he has developed.

But saving lives is indeed the top priority now. Khalid took a breath and said to the doctor, "Save him. There is no need to save medicine."

Khalid spoke in English, and his words were mainly addressed to Gao Yi.

The doctor actually understood what he said, and he immediately said, "Okay, we still have enough anesthesia and antibiotics, but after using them on him, our remaining drugs will not be able to support another major surgery."

The doctor habitually gave Khalid a count, and then said to the people next to him: "Take him to the operating room."

Four people lifted up Joelson and took him to the next room. Gao Yi was too lazy to follow them. He said to Khalid, "Is your situation so difficult? You are short of even the most basic medicines. Hmm, how good are your doctors? If they are not good enough, find the best doctors."

Khalid turned his head away and said unhappily, "Our doctor is Syrian. He is the best surgeon in Syria. He is a senior doctor who studied in the UK. He is very good. There is no need to find another doctor."

After saying this, Khalid couldn't help but look at Gao Yi again and said, "Who are you? Why did you find me? What trouble did you get into?"

"Don't ask me about my origins. Just remember one thing. If you need money, I will give you money. If you need medicine, I will give you medicine. I can give you anything you need. I am yours..."

Gao Yi paused.

What should I say? If I say I am a timely rain, Khalid will have to understand it. If I say I am his financial sponsor, Khalid will think it is an insult to him. This word cannot be used casually.

Gao Yi finally found a suitable alternative word. He said seriously, "I am your good brother. I will give you whatever you need in the future. You must be wondering why I give you these. The reason is very simple, because I have money. Now I need your help, so I will repay you a hundred times a thousand times."

Khalid couldn't help but sneer.

Gao Yi was not in a hurry because he was sure that Khalid would bow down and kowtow.

Sure enough, it didn't take long before the little brother Khalid had just sent out came out of the tunnel, and then he began to take out money from his pocket.

He couldn't understand what the two were saying, but when Khalid looked at Gao Yi with a pile of colorful banknotes, his eyes finally changed.

"Five million...it's true!"

I am still skeptical, but now I believe more than I doubt.

Luca said impatiently, "You can transfer the remaining $4.98 million to your company account. Remember to deduct the handling fee. The bank charges a handling fee of $12 per transaction."

Khalid exhaled, and when he looked at Gao Yi again, his eyes began to become stiff.

"I don't understand, why?"

Gao Yi waved his hand and said, "My opponent is the CIA. You are the only one who can help me in the whole of Libya. This is your value. I can only use you if I want to hire someone, and I can only invest in you. This is the reason."

This reason is quite reasonable.

Khalid believed it now. He nodded and said, "Yes, only I can help you!"

Gao Yi said in a deep voice: "You have persisted in fighting the Americans for many years, and all of this is the reward you deserve."

Khalid took a long breath, then nodded and said, "Yes, we are the only ones who still persist in the struggle!"

Gao Yi smiled kindly and said, "Get through the current crisis first, and from now on, I will support you."

Khalid said without hesitation: "No matter what the cost, I promise that nothing will happen to you. If the Americans want to catch you, they will have to step over our dead bodies first."

After saying this, Khalid hesitated for a moment, but still said to Gao Yi very seriously: "Don't worry, brother!"

As expected, Khalid changed his tone and called him "big brother".

The fact that he was able to change his words shows that Khalid is a smart man who knows the times. Age is not a problem for him. He can recognize his own position, which makes him a good brother.
