Chapter 19 Why Choose Iraq
Cai Ruichen's calmness on the edge of the explosion made Harun feel a little admiration.
For Iraqis, especially Baghdadians, such explosions can be heard every day, even several times a day.
Living in such an environment, almost everyone is close to seeing through life and death. It is best to be lucky enough to survive, and they are almost prepared for being bombed to death one day.
But Cai Ruichen's expression remained unchanged after seeing such a scene with his own eyes, which is really rare.
This kind of calm, even those Iraqis who are accompanied by explosions every day, find it difficult to show it.
What Harlan didn't know was that in virtual reality, Cai Ruichen was so familiar with such an explosion that he didn't feel much.
Hearing such an explosion just now really made his hands and feet feel cold, and his heart almost stopped beating.
But as soon as he entered the virtual reality, he could hear the sound of cannons, sometimes exploding around him, and he got used to it after a lot.
Moreover, in the virtual reality, Cai Ruichen has been entering the Normandy landing. The main guns of the battleships in the Allied fleet are much more powerful than this one, and the Normandy defense line built by the German army also has artillery that is no less than the main guns of the battleships.
Under such heavy artillery alone, Cai Ruichen died no less than seven or eight times, and his nerves were almost numb.
Knowing that he will not be affected, he naturally has no feeling for such an explosion.
However, Harlan's words immediately changed his expression.
The title of elder is not available to ordinary people in the Arab world. Almost only those respected elders with extremely high wisdom can become the elders of a region.
In the Middle East, in many cases, the words of elders are more effective than the government and warlords. Not to mention that everyone will respect him, even if he is controlling one side, he will not easily violate those elders who have the title of elders. They are also polite to elders. angry.
Because the elder's prestige among ordinary people is too high, so high that everyone responds to it.
Originally, what Cai Ruichen thought was that this young man named Harlem could represent either an armed force or a warlord, or the Iraqi government, or even the intelligence organizations of various countries and the Iraqi Inter-Services Intelligence Service.
The only thing he didn't expect was that it was the elders of Marin Town who wanted to see him, and while he let go of his suspended heart slightly, his heart was also full of doubts.
If it was because of his experience of being a bombshell, intelligence personnel from various countries or the Iraqi government would find him, he would still be able to figure it out.
But Cai Ruichen really couldn't think of a reason for the elder looking for him.
Find out about yourself?
This is the reason Cai Ruichen thinks is the most reliable. After all, he has only been here for half a month, and all forces must have already focused on his so-called future technology group.
As the object of admiration in the hearts of all residents in the entire town, the most likely way for the elder to find himself is to find out the situation.
As for the others, Cai Ruichen couldn't think of any other reason.
But he didn't rule out that this Harlem was sent by other forces, and then deceived himself.
But regardless of whether it is true or not, Cai Ruichen knew that he would definitely not be able to avoid it. As soon as he undid the chain of the general's collar, he was ready to take a trip.
"Lead the way!"
Following Harlem in the small alleys of Marin Town, Cai Ruichen only had hope in his heart, the elder really wanted to see him. Otherwise, I'm afraid life will be difficult.
Cai Ruichen felt a little uncomfortable when he thought of the painful identity that the base had arranged for him. In a place like Iraq, with such an excellent resume, he might have already been targeted by all the spy agencies around the world.
After all, the guys who can enter the world's top talent pool are not simple people. This kind of people has the most detailed backup in the intelligence agencies of various countries.
Cai Ruichen didn't think that when he came to this turbulent country, intelligence personnel from various countries would not be curious about his purpose.
As for the status that the base arranged for him, he didn't know whether he wanted to cause trouble for him, or for the convenience of his future development.
In short, this kind of passive acceptance of other people's arrangements made Cai Ruichen extremely unhappy. Fortunately, this identity really made him vain. If he was given the title of terrorist, he would not be unhappy, but extremely angry.
Turning and turning all the way, while Cai Ruichen was still thinking about the pros and cons of this matter, Harlem, who was leading the way, stopped in front of a dilapidated house.
At this time, many armed men in ordinary clothes appeared around, looking at Cai Ruichen and the others with vigilant eyes.
"Mr. Cai, the elder is waiting for you inside." Harlem walked to the door, opened the somewhat decayed wooden door, and said to Cai Ruichen.
What should come always comes back, Cai Ruichen took a deep breath, and walked directly into this very dark house.
El Yessel also walked in, no one stopped him, the general followed Cai Ruichen's feet closely.
Harlem outside the door did not follow in, and closed the door after Cai Ruichen and others entered.
Cai Ruichen, who walked into the house, took in the layout inside at a glance. The space of the house is not very large.
The ground was covered with a carpet, and a low table was placed in the middle of the carpet. An old man with white hair and beard was sitting on the carpet, and beside him was a man who was nearly thirty years old.
After seeing Cai Ruichen, the old man showed a smile on his wrinkled face, gestured for a seat please, and said in quite proficient Chinese: "Mr. Cai, please sit down."
"Thank you, elder." Cai Ruichen was surprised that the elder spoke fluent Chinese, but he did not forget the etiquette. He thanked the elders with the etiquette of an Iraqi, and then sat down.
Al Yaser stepped forward and stood behind him, and the general squatted beside him.
When Cai Ruichen sat cross-legged on the carpet, the man next to the elder smiled slightly at Cai Ruichen.
Cai Ruichen also nodded slightly to him, then turned his gaze to the smiling elder, and said, "Respected elder, why did you come to me?"
"A few years ago, I heard that there was a Chinese super genius. At the age of fifteen, he received three doctoral acupoints from Harvard University and studied eight languages. He is proficient in English, German, Russian, French, Arabic. He also conducted two years of military training in the French Foreign Legion, was stationed in Afghanistan for seven months, fought more than a dozen battles with the Taliban, and retired from the Foreign Legion as the youngest sergeant major. Unexpectedly, such a Outstanding person, you actually chose Iraq, you are really a young legend."
Cai Ruichen did not speak, but quietly waited for the elder's next words.
Seeing that Cai Ruichen didn't respond, the elder could only continue to say after a sigh of emotion: "And I don't know why you chose the most dangerous war zone in the world as the place to build your career. And I also heard that, Before you came to Iraq, you established the Future Technology Group in Iraq."
Cai Ruichen still didn't make a sound. The elder had said so much, but he didn't reveal the theme. He wasn't in a hurry, let's see what the other party wanted to do?
The elder didn't pause for long this time, and then continued: "To be honest, Iraq doesn't have the soil to start a business, so can you tell me why you chose Iraq?"
Sure enough, it was this topic, Cai Ruichen's heart moved, but he didn't show it, he had already prepared his speech.
"Choosing Iraq is purely guided by fate. I made a random selection among all the countries in the Middle East. God's will let me choose Iraq, so I came here. You are a scholar respected by thousands of people, and you can understand the two aspects of fate. Character."
