Chris looked at Paxton and said with a smile, "Look, isn't this also good?"
Paxton pursed his lips in silence for a moment, and then asked, "What about the captives?"
Chris laughed: "This is simple, Adam pays you compensation of 10 thousand dollars per person, 15 thousand people, that's 1 hundred and 50 million dollars, with this money, it's enough for you to expand the size of your army properly, and at the same time upgrade the weaponry."
Adam even thought that this matter would require more than 1 billion dollars to be settled, but he did not expect Chris to promise the other party 150 million dollars.
Paxton obviously also has some disappointment, he also knows that Adam is very wealthy, and has been thinking about whether to take this opportunity.
A fierce knock on Adam, but 150 million dollars this amount, the less not less, but say more, is really not much.
So, he coughed twice and said: "Mr. Arthur, the amount of $150 million, is not a little less? In addition, let us give 100 square KMs of land to the Catalytic Front."
"The Catalytic Front must more or less give some rent, right? Otherwise, we can't explain to the people……"
Chris said generously: "Let's do it this way Paxton, you go back and talk to your leaders, in addition to the 150 million dollars of compensation, after you allocate the land to the Catalytic Front, the Catalytic Front will give you another 100 thousand tons of wheat every year!"
"Isn't it too convenient for you to buy grain? I happen to have my own Transportation company, when the time comes, I will purchase grain in Springs and deliver and serve you directly to your port."
Chris knew that for Paxton as well as their leaders, the problem at hand was more than war, and it was a basic livelihood.
Originally, they were the only grain exporter in the Middle East, but the ongoing war had led to a steady decline in their grain production, and the shortage of grain had become a big problem for them.
1 hundred thousand tons of wheat, whose cost is just over 2 hundred million, converted into dollars is less than 40 million, but for them, to go overseas to import food is not the same price.
Besides, their current financial situation is so bad that giving them a solution of 100 thousand tons of wheat a year can really be of great use to them, and feeding more than 200 thousand people is not a problem.
Paxton in his heart after running through all the conditions, deep inside has made his own judgment, he felt that this deal is very good value, and for his side, not only get a lot of benefits, but also a strong ally, it is definitely a good thing.
And he also knew very well that he was able to capture the 10 thousand soldiers of the Catalytic Front, and not how strong his own ability, but completely rely on the help of Chris.
So, at this time, he was too embarrassed to continue bargaining with Chris, so he spoke: "Mr. Arthur, I need to ask the leadership, if the leadership is Alright, this matter is settled!"
Paxton took his satellite phone and stepped out of the conference room that was inside the mountain.
On the phone, he gave his leader the whole feedback of the situation.
The terms of the Catalytic Front' coordinated defense, help in training soldiers, and the initiative to reside in the buffer zone made Paxton's leaders very satisfied.
After all, this could really enhance their security very well, as well as ease their current anxiety.
The compensation of 150 million dollars and the terms of 100 thousand tons of wheat per year made him even more delighted.
And also, there is a bonus clause attached to this, that is, the actual neutrality of Aliba.
Aliba is now in the opposition, the strongest 1 in terms of overall strength, if he does not initiate the attack, then the pressure on the government forces to defend will also be much easier.
Therefore, he immediately clapped on the phone and agreed to Chris's terms.
Sayed got the go-ahead and returned to the conference room with great joy and immediately said to Chris as well as Adam: "Mr. Arthur, Mr. Ethan, our leader has agreed to the terms just now, if there are no other problems, please come with me to Damascus to sign the agreement!"
Chris looked at the time and smiled, "I have to rush back to Springs, so I won't go with you."
After saying that, he said to Adam, "Adam, you go and set the specific terms with them as well as when and how to pay, and also when to release the people."
"As for the grain issue you don't need to worry about it, let them see in which port it is more appropriate to receive the goods, then I will directly arrange the cargo ship to send the grain over."
Adam said, "Mr. Arthur, how can I let you worry about the food, let me take care of it!"
Chris waved his hand: "100 thousand tons of grain is nothing to you and me, I have a ready-made Transportation company, local friends are also cooperative, when the time comes, whether the acquisition or Transportation should be relatively simple, so you do not need to get involved."
"They gave you the land, you must also spend a lot of financial resources, material resources, and energy to build, you just take care of this piece, it's fine."
