Chapter 271 Actions of All Parties
Siam.
A number of Chinese business families are worried.
For example, among the Chinese business families there are the Huang Family Group, Sophonphani Group, Taixing Steel Pipe Group, Dechapaiboon Group, Hiap Seng Chang Group, Central Group, Zheng Brothers Group, and Charoen Pokphand Group.
They either use the excuse of going to Malaysia and Hong Kong to "talk business", or go to China to "expand the market", or simply say they are going back to their hometown to visit relatives and friends.
However, the big families among the locals do not have so many concerns, or they have already become impatient.
For example, the Wadi family behind Gulf Energy, the Tesoro family behind Bangkok Airways and Bangkok Medical, and the Prayut family, one of the branches of the royal family.
There is also Alok Lohia, the Indian immigrant behind the Doma Chemicals Group.
These people's property and industries suffered serious losses after Qiu Yingle came to power. Faced with such huge interests, they naturally would not give up.
Being conscious of confidentiality, Lukung Prayut did not gather others at his own estate or property, but chose to hold a secret meeting on Alok Lohia's private island.
In this regard, Lukorn Prayut is indeed meticulous.
Alok Lohia's island is kept very secret because the waiters and bodyguards of this private island are all Indian immigrants and there are no outsiders.
April 11th.
Rukung Prayut, Alok Lohia, Lapu Tassos, Sava Wadi, and a guest from Star Island secretly appeared on this private island.
Inside the villa on the island.
After serving the wine and food, the waiter quickly left the restaurant.
Alok Lohia picked up the juice and said, "Everyone, we can eat together here today because of the guidance of Lord Shiva..."
Peter Li picked up the champagne and said, "I am also very honored to have lunch with you all. Cheers!"
"Mr. Li, I toast to you." Lukung Prayut leaned over with a smile on his face.
After a while, everyone ate a little bit and got down to business.
Peter Li, who came with the black ship's instructions, smiled and reminded them: "Everyone, your current situation is not good! If you continue like this, your family will soon become a thing of the past."
As the largest branch of the royal family, the Prayut family naturally knew their current situation, otherwise they would not have chosen to seek help from the black ships.
Lugong Prayut said with anger: "Of course I know my current situation. As long as you are willing to lend me a hand, I will definitely thank you handsomely when I return to the throne."
Peter Li still had a smile on his face: "No problem, it depends on Mr. Prayut's sincerity."
With his mind made up, Lugong Prayut approached Peter Lee and whispered in his ear: "I have contacted some Thai military officers. These people are my former subordinates, but they want some money, preferably in Euros."
"How many people?" Peter Li asked with interest.
Lukung Prayuth whispered back: "173 people, they control about 30,000 troops."
"30,000 people? How about 300 million euros in special aid?" Peter Li knew that he had to spend a lot of money, otherwise he would not be able to form a team. After all, the Siamese army was being treated well now.
Of course, he did not give this money to ordinary soldiers, but to bribe the 173 officers and to the Prayut family.
Hearing 300 million euros, Lugong Prayut's eyes lit up immediately, but he was not satisfied and continued to ask for more: "Mr. Li, 300 million is too little, 1 billion may be enough to guarantee their loyalty."
But Peter Li is not a fool, how could he agree so easily?
The two bargained for a long time and finally decided on a special aid of 470 million euros.
Then there is the matter of the families of Alok Lohia, Lapu Tassos and Sava Wadi joining forces with the Black Ship and Prayut families.
They agreed on their respective responsibilities and how to divide Siam after the success.
But they didn't consider the trouble that would befall themselves and their families once their actions were exposed.
At this time, on the ceiling of the villa's restaurant.
A dozen cockroaches were listening to their loud plotting.
Trying to have a secret conversation in the area controlled by the Homo Sapiens Company is basically like lighting a light in the toilet - seeking death.
…
Siam.
Thonburi.
In Domino's Yalan Villa.
She put down her headphones, a cold smile appeared on her lips: "It seems that the house that was not cleaned clean last time can be cleaned again this time."
"Branch chief, the Black Ship has exposed seven previously undiscovered converts this time. Should we eliminate them all at once?" Zhang Longji, the head of the Thonburi intelligence station, asked in a low voice.
Domino's eyes were calm: "Need I say more? Just use their flesh and blood as nutrients to make stronger!"
"I understand." Zhang Longji nodded.
Domino narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Don't be in a hurry. Let the fish enter the net first. When the black ships' hundreds of millions of euros in cash arrive, we will catch them all in one fell swoop."
Although it would certainly be difficult for Siam to spend these euros, don't forget the field department of the Sapiens Company, which has branches all over the world. It would be easy to launder hundreds of millions of euros.
As for those "old subordinates" that Lukung Prayut secretly colluded with, the army within the Homo Sapiens Company has basically been fully transformed into new humans.
It was obvious that Domino was playing the other party, deliberately fishing and defrauding money.
A number of large private enterprises, big families , and foreign-funded enterprises were already under the strict surveillance of the Internal Affairs Department.
When Qiu Yingle came to power , he only purged the royal family, the royal power group, and some families that were loyal to the royal family, but did not target Chinese businessmen and local big families.
Although in a series of adjustments that followed , the three major Siamese groups took a series of measures to suppress other companies and large families.
However, these crackdowns mainly use commercial means and do not involve direct physical removal.
This is a rare opportunity, so Domino naturally wants to catch more big fish.
Alok Lohia, Lapu Tessos, Sava Wadi and others did not know at this time that they were about to face a disaster. They were still secretly mobilizing various resources and manpower, fantasizing that they would be able to call the shots in Siam in a few months.
at the same time.
Star Island.
Inside the headquarters building of Temasek Investments.
Tom and several behind-the-scenes shareholders of Temasek Investments are also discussing some things.
Li Guming, one of the major shareholders, looked a little gloomy after hearing what Tom said.
Tom saw his worry and a sneer suddenly appeared on his face: “Mr. Li, are you going to reject America’s friendship?”
"NO...NO..." Li Guming shook his head: "I'm just worried about the navigation problem in the Strait of Malacca."
Tom spread his hands with a half-smile: "What is there to worry about? The Seventh Fleet will be stationed at Changi Base. We are just preventing some ships carrying dangerous chemicals from passing through."
"I..." Li Guming knew he couldn't refuse, so he nodded in the end: "OK, I will cooperate with you, but please try your best to maintain normal navigation in the Strait of Malacca."
"Don't worry! Li, you won't lose anything this time."
Li Guming also smiled when he heard this. Temasek did not suffer any losses as they had obtained the inside information about the black ships. They had made many preparations in the international financial market and were just waiting to reap the rewards.
April 20th.
The American Seventh Fleet arrived at the Strait of Malacca and was temporarily stationed at the Changi base.
At about the same time, America's Third Fleet, which had previously been stationed in Hawaii, appeared at the Yokosuka base in Japan, temporarily replacing the Seventh Fleet.
The American Fifth Fleet in the Persian Gulf in West Asia was rapidly approaching Ceylon, only about a week's sail away.
