Chapter 475: A Big Investment (2/2)
”Is that so?” Xinghe nodded in thought. ”This organization must have dirt on many people then. Or else they wouldn't have grown to such strength.”
Mubai nodded. ”It is so. They threaten or remove those that they can't pull into their midst. One of the reasons this country is so chaotic is because it has been corrupted from within.”
”Then, can we trust Philip to help us with IV Syndicate?” Xinghe asked with concern.
Mubai smirked. ”Of course, only by taking out the IV Syndicate can he climb to the top and take over this country completely.”
Xinghe understood then. Philip needed them to remove this syndicate to strengthen his influence and position. In such a rocky climate, the person or party who could instill peace would have the support of the people and the military. Philip would have the absolute support of Country Y's citizens if he took down IV Syndicate. Furthermore, he had several personal reasons to hate IV Syndicate so they could trust him as an ally.
Xinghe was impressed. ”It's incredible that you managed to contact him and make him cooperate with you.”
Mubai gave a wry smile. ”I gave him an offer he couldn't refuse; that's why he is willing to support me.”
”How big was that offer?”
”Very big.”
Xinghe nodded quietly. Philip might have the influence but the military was always in need of monetary support. Money speaks, that's the iron rule, especially in a war-torn country like Country Y.
Therefore, she could attempt a guess at the offer number. It must have been astronomical!
Xinghe, who was not good at consoling, awkwardly said, ”No matter, you will earn it back sooner or later.”
