Chapter 389 Appearances of All Living Beings

A deal that everyone is happy with is done.

The next step is of course to continue selling. Since we are doing wholesale, it is impossible to finish the business all at once.

When Gao Yi couldn't decide who to choose as the agent in the United States, he decided to call his good brother first.

Products certified by Dongda are more guaranteed in quality.

"Brother, I have something good here, do you want it?"

Gao Yi's directness caused some misunderstandings on Shaman's part.

"Bring it here."

"It's technology. It's the technology for making metallic hydrogen. It's just a technical tip, but it can successfully make metallic hydrogen. I will sell this technology to anyone who wants it. I don't know if you need it, but I will definitely ask you. If you want it, I will give it to you right away."

Shaman sighed softly.

Gao Yi whispered, "Just because it's useless now doesn't mean it won't be useful in the future. It's good to keep this thing."

Shaman said helplessly, "We need to start from building a laboratory in the university. It took several years for us to build the laboratory, and ten years for us to recruit qualified scientists. By that time, we had just started research, while other countries had already produced mature products. This kind of basic research that requires a long time and large investment is not suitable for us, and being forced to be involved in this kind of scientific and technological competition will cause people to misjudge our strategy. So, forget it. But thank you anyway."

Yes, that's it.

Saudi Arabia certainly does not want this cutting-edge technology for metallic hydrogen research. It would be useless for them to get it. It has no meaning other than satisfying their curiosity.

But Shaman doesn't want it, Gao Yi has to say it. The former is a question of background, and the latter is a question of whether Gao Yi has a conscience.

Even if it's just a formality, it has to be done. With Gao Yi's emotional intelligence, how could he ignore his financial backer?

After hanging up the phone, Gao Yi thought about it and called Glass directly.

They knew each other from humble beginnings and were good brothers whose interests and lives were closely related. They were definitely closer than Panetta, so when making the decision, Gao Yi could not consider the issue purely from the perspective of interests.

"Brother, here's something. It's the latest scientific research result from France, and it's related to metallic hydrogen. I don't have time to explain the details to you. Now I'll tell you that I have this technology, and I'm going to sell it to many countries. This kind of thing that can make a contribution must be done through you. See if you can do it."

It would be a bit troublesome to explain each person once, so Gao Yi just talked about the important points.

"Did you do the Amsterdam thing?"

How come everyone knows what's going on in Amsterdam?
Gao Yi was very puzzled and asked: "Even you know about this?"

"You make it sound like I have poor business skills."

Gao Yi smiled bitterly and said, "No, I just killed Iron Fist George in Amsterdam this afternoon. Now the whole world knows about it. I was wondering, is there no secret in this circle?"

"You have to understand that France and Britain have been in a turmoil for a long time because of the Iron Fist George incident. You made a big fuss about MI6 in London. Do you think there is any intelligence agency in the world that doesn't know about it and doesn't pay attention to it? Now that Iron Fist George is dead, who wouldn't know about it? In the information age, it only takes a few minutes for a piece of news to spread around the world, let alone a professional intelligence agency like us."

Glass explained a few things, and then he said in a very certain tone: "Before today, we didn't know why the French were hunting down Iron Fist George, nor did we know why Iron Fist George defected. Now you've told me a technology related to metallic hydrogen. Well, with these clues, if I still can't figure out what happened, then what kind of agent am I?"

"Okay, $100 million a family, see how it works."

Glass whispered, "One hundred million dollars? Well, we are a military intelligence unit. We can buy technical intelligence from spies, but it's not our job."

"But aren't you competing with the CIA?"

"Oh, of course, but I think this matter can be viewed this way. The CIA obviously needs this intelligence more. Liberty Winds has been following up before. If Panetta can get this intelligence from Liberty Winds, it will obviously be more helpful to him. So, why not maximize the benefits?"

Gao Yi smiled and said, "Do you have any ideas?"

"You contact Panetta and sell him the intelligence, but we want to intervene. It's better to sell 300 million instead of 100 million. 100 million is yours, 100 million is ours, and the remaining 100 million can be left to Panetta. The reason for this is very simple. Our Secret Operations Agency has limited funds. It takes a long time to allocate special funds from above, but the CIA has this part of funds, and Panetta can decide how to use it."

Gao Yi suddenly realized and said, "I see. You still have to report it to higher authorities. Panetta will handle it directly."

"Yes, and everyone will benefit. The money will be distributed after it reaches you, which will be very helpful for your status."

The money was not paid by Gao Yi, but was distributed by Gao Yi.

Without hesitation, Gao Yi said immediately: "Then I will contact Panetta, but if I send the information to you and then have you pass it on to Panetta, it will seem like I have deliberately ignored Panetta. How about this, I will say that you helped me deal with Iron Fist George and you participated in my operation throughout, so I must give you a share. And if you are willing to give the information to Panetta, he will owe you a favor."

"It's not that you owe me a favor, I'm not qualified, it's that you owe the Pentagon a favor."

Everyone benefits and everyone makes money. Who wouldn't like such a deal? Who would be willing to give up such a network of relationships?

"One meaning, wait for my news."

Gao Yi hung up the phone with Glass and then called Panetta.

Panetta quickly answered the phone and said calmly, "Hello, go ahead."

It was not convenient for Panetta to talk, and there must be many people around him. Gao Yi whispered, "I killed Iron Fist George. I have what Free Wind wanted to get from Iron Fist George. I did the Amsterdam thing, and the Defense Secret Operations Agency provided technical support. However, the Secret Operations Agency is willing to give this thing to you. Well, I offer 100 million, and I will sell it to everyone at this price, but the Secret Operations Agency thinks that 300 million is a better offer, of which 100 million is yours."

Simple and concise, not a lot of words, but everything that needs to be said has been said.

Panetta continued in a calm tone: "Thank you, I will seriously consider this deal, but I think your offer is a bit high. One billion dollars is impossible. I think 500 million dollars is a good price."

Gao Yi was stunned for a moment, but his brain was so quick that he immediately followed Panetta's words and said, "Five hundred million is too little, nine hundred million dollars."

"Six hundred million, no more."

"Eight hundred million, at least eight hundred million U.S. dollars, delivery first, payment later."

"Seven hundred million dollars. Stop bargaining. I know the value of this intelligence. I also know that you quoted ten billion to the UK, but we can get this intelligence from the UK without spending a dollar. So seven hundred million dollars is the final offer. There is no problem with payment first and delivery later. I believe in your credibility."

How did Panetta make the deal work?

$700 million?

Unable to help but shrug, Gao Yi whispered: "Okay, for $700 million, who should I contact, Jolson?"

"Jolson will contact you once we have the funds ready."

"Wait, how do we ensure the security of the transaction?"

Panetta said seriously: "This is a question I should consider. Please rest assured that we will protect the informant who provided the intelligence."

The phone hangs up.

What Panetta meant by his last sentence was that he would ensure that the payment method of the money was safe, and Gao Yi did not have to worry that the CIA would find him by following the flow of funds. After all, this matter was led by Panetta.

An item worth 100 million was sold for 700 million, but the extra money had nothing to do with Gao Yi, and he still needed to work hard to return the money safely.

Panetta is getting too comfortable with the kickbacks, but I don't know how much he will give to the Pentagon. But this is not a big problem, after all, the agreement with Glass is $300 million.

Is it so easy for the top Americans to make money?

If you seize an opportunity, you can earn enough money to last for several lifetimes. It seems that this is the benefit of having real power and defeating your competitors.

When one person succeeds, everyone around him benefits. Giving this information to Panetta is indeed much more beneficial than giving it to Glass. More importantly, Panetta can also promote many people.

After hanging up the phone, Gao Yi said to Luca: "Prepare another account, this time for $700 million."

Luca sighed and said, "I've never seen this kind of deliberate price increase before. We've got it all done here, right?"

"We still have to contact Russia. Let's contact Russia and see if they are willing to buy it. Green is still waiting."

Until Gao Yi has settled everything, Green cannot sell it.

The reason is very simple. MI6 is the London branch of the KGB, which is the London branch of the CIA.

If Britain obtained the intelligence, it would be equivalent to the United States and Russia getting the same intelligence for free. Therefore, in order to make double the money, Britain must be the last country to get the intelligence.

Gao Yi called Xie Erjin.

I don’t know what the relationship between Sherkin and the KGB is, but it’s enough to know that there is a connection.

Sherkin quickly answered the phone, and then he whispered: "I did what happened in Amsterdam."

"what?"

Finally, someone didn't know what happened in Amsterdam, which shows that Sherkin's connection with the intelligence community was not that close.

Gao Yi thought for a moment and said, "Contact the KGB and tell them that I have something to sell to them. It costs $100 million and I got it from Iron Fist George. The KGB should understand what I'm saying."

"I want a 10% commission. As a middleman, I should get this money."

Gao Yi was stunned for a moment and said, "I don't care how much you want, I want 100 million."

Sherkin said without hesitation: "No, this is what you should pay. I will not try to get money from the KGB. They will definitely default on the debt, so your offer must include my benefits."

"Then report 110 million, that's all."

"Okay, contact me again."

After the call was disconnected, Gao Yi shook his head and said, "The KGB's credibility is not good. We have to be more careful."
