Great Power Industry: You're a private company building an aircraft carrier?

Karum Peninsula, an affluent area.

Tony was somewhat surprised when the car drove into the villa.

In Guinea, more than 90 percent of people are illiterate and more than 90 percent of people go hungry, yet there are still upper-class people who can live such a luxurious life!

Kamara has sixteen wives, so he needs sixteen houses.

At the same time, he has more than 30 children who need space to play, so Kamara’s family alone lives in an area equivalent to an entire estate!

This is the most bustling and expensive place in Conakry. How much would it cost to own such a large estate?

All the other buildings were two stories high, except for one four-story building in the center of the manor, which was Camara's main residence. When Tony brought Knowles to the door, they were stopped and checked to make sure they were not carrying any weapons before being allowed to enter.

The lobby on the first floor is luxuriously decorated, with golden things everywhere.

Kamala sat on the large sofa, smoking a cigar, and glanced at the newcomer out of the corner of his eye.

"Speak, what brings you here?"

“We’re here to deliver money,” Tony said, gesturing to Knowles behind him, who then opened his briefcase.

"Here is one million dollars, a gift for you... to mark our meeting."

"Just a greeting gift?" Kamara became interested. He had thought the other party was using the money to get him to do something, but it turned out it was just a greeting gift, and there would be more later!

“Yes, what we’re going to talk about next is the big business.” Tony began, “Mr. Camara, you should know that Rio Tinto is very interested in your iron ore. In the past, we were unable to reach a cooperation agreement only because of some disagreements over the construction of the railway. Now that the waterway is about to be completed, Rio Tinto hopes to take over the mining business.”

"That's impossible. We've already signed a contract with the Pacific Group. They're responsible for helping build the hydroelectric power station and will exchange it for iron ore. The contract has been signed and the project has officially started. We can only officially auction the iron ore once the hydroelectric power station is completed. The timing isn't right now."

"But we've heard that these matters are handled by the Minister of Energy and Water Resources, and have nothing to do with your mining sector. Are you willing to accept that?"

Kamara's gaze immediately turned serious: "Are you trying to sow discord between us?"

"Of course not. I just want to say that if you can let us mine the iron ore, we will give you this gift every year. Also, when you want to quit in the future, you can immigrate to England. You and all your wives can go to our developed Western world."

One million dollars a year, that's more than ten million dollars in ten years, which is an absolutely huge income!

After thinking for a moment, Kamara still shook his head: "No, His Excellency Condé no longer trusts the West. I cannot make demands now, otherwise..."

Before Kamara could finish speaking, Tony continued, "We give you this gift every six months."

One million in six months, doubled!

Kamara nodded: "Okay, I can help! But there's still no special reason!"

"That's easy to say. Currently, the Easterners are digging a waterway. Once the waterway is completed, they'll run into trouble. That Mr. Wang from the Pacific Group, and others, will all disappear without a trace. It's normal for countless corpses to be buried in the jungles of Guinea! Without a legal representative, how can they enforce the contract? You'll have no choice but to auction it off. Then..."

Kamara's hand trembled slightly, and he almost dropped the cigar.

"What did you say?"

“Leave these things to us; you just need to promote mineral cooperation.”

Kamara swallowed hard: "Okay!"

That's how the deal was struck!

Back at the hotel, Knowles exclaimed with admiration, "Mr. Tony, you're amazing!"

"It's nothing, they're just greedy. By the way, any news from the men we sent out to find Bill and his group?"

Knowles shook his head: "Not yet. It seems that Bill and the others may have really met with misfortune. However, as long as we find a clue, we can implicate the Easterners!"

"Okay, next, we should also visit the Minister of Water Resources, Diubat. We need to be prepared for both possibilities."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements."

In the light drizzle, Knowles went out with two bodyguards, leaving two more bodyguards at the hotel to protect Tony. He stared blankly at the drizzle outside, and soon it got dark.

"Why hasn't Knowles come back yet?" Tony sensed something was wrong.

"I don't know, maybe they've run into some trouble..." Before the bodyguard could finish speaking, a sharp screech of brakes sounded outside, followed by the sound of many footsteps.

what happened?

What went wrong?

咣 咣 咣!

Soon, a large number of armed men went upstairs and headed straight for Tony's residence.

"We're surrounded!"

"What are they going to do?"

Should we resist?

Resistance? This is the capital of Guinea, surrounded by a large number of armed personnel. With only two bodyguards, how could they possibly resist?

Tony frowned: "Don't move. Listen to what they have to say."

Boom!

The door was kicked open, and a large group of people pointed guns at them, looking extremely tense.

"Don't move! You are under arrest for the suspected murder of Mr. Abdullah al-Khamara!"

Murder of Kamara?

Tony's expression changed abruptly as he looked at the leading officer: "What did you say? Kamara is dead?"

“That’s right, Mr. Kamara is dead! You are the prime suspects! Now, come with us back for the investigation!”

Conspiracy! This is definitely a conspiracy!

Tony quickly realized that he had fallen into a trap set by someone else!

The person behind this is ruthless!

He always thought he was very capable and wanted to make a name for himself, but he never expected that he would be outmaneuvered by others in his very first attempt!

However, I can explain myself clearly, and besides, I am British, so they wouldn't dare to do anything to me!

"Fine, I can go back with you to investigate, but if it turns out that this matter has nothing to do with us, I demand an explanation!"

"Let's talk about it when we get back!"

Sitting in the interrogation room, Tony straightened his clothes: "What evidence do you have? Show it to us!"

"Your bodyguard was illegally carrying a firearm."

When entering the country, I certainly didn't bring a gun, but how can I travel in the chaotic world of Africa without one?

So, after his bodyguards arrived here, they managed to get handguns through certain channels. This is a very normal thing to do. Many businessmen do this. Few bodyguards with guns would dare to travel in Africa.

Tony remained silent.

"One of the guns has the same trajectory as the gun that killed Mr. Kamara."

Tony remained silent. If the other party wanted to frame him, they must have done their homework thoroughly; that was to be expected.
