Chapter 727 Murder for money
Chapter 727
A man who can bend and stretch is a real man!
Compaore understood that his own life was now in the hands of Bryce.
And since Bryce has come this far, there must be no way out.
Therefore, if Bryce thinks that he still has the idea of resistance, he will make a ruthless attack if he fails to protect himself, so as to cut off future troubles.
Compaore immediately changed his expression and pleaded pitifully:
“I’m not too young anymore. In fact, even if there is no such thing as today, in two or three years, I will be ready to retire.
But since everything has happened, then I have nothing to say. If there is anything that needs my cooperation, just say it, and I will cooperate.
Bryce, you should also understand that, no matter what, this… action of yours, even if it is successful, it is difficult to be recognized internationally.
However, if I cooperated, the nature of the matter would be completely different.
I can announce to the public that I resigned due to physical problems, and then nominate you to serve as the next general T…”
Hearing Compaore say this, Bryce was a little moved.
He hesitated, and inserted the gun that he had been holding tightly into the holster around his waist.
Upon seeing this action, Compaore breathed a sigh of relief. The feeling of being pointed at by the black muzzle was really uncomfortable.
After a few seconds, Bryce waved his hand, turned his head and said to the soldiers behind him: “You guys go out first, wait for me, I have something to say to Compaore.”
Several soldiers exited the room and did not go far, standing in the corridor on guard.
…
After there were only two people left in the room, Bryce said with a smile:
“Compaore, you must have looted a lot of wealth over the years. If you hand over the money, I will save your life and allow you to settle abroad. How about this transaction?”
His main target for this operation was, of course, the position of Compaore.
But incidentally, it would be icing on the cake if he could also get hold of the wealth that Compaore had accumulated over the years.
You must know that for the past 20 years since Compaore has been in this position, although the country is getting poorer and poorer, his personal or family wealth is increasing day by day!
As one of Compaore’s henchmen, Bryce knows a little bit about it.
Of course he was also moved by these wealth.
Compaore’s face was gloomy and uncertain, and he didn’t answer for a long time, because he was weighing the pros and cons.
Of course he felt distressed when he handed over his wealth.
But compared with life, wealth is not so important. No matter how much money there is, if life is lost, who will the money be spent…
But he gave up his position, and now he has to hand over all the money. To be honest, Compaore is also unwilling.
Emboldened, he bargained and said, “Part of my wealth has been transferred abroad, but most of it remains at home. Is this good? All the domestic wealth will be handed over. But the foreign part will be left to me for retirement. Use it.”
Here he is obviously lying.
In the case of Burkina Faso, how could he possibly keep most of his wealth there.
Because there is nowhere to spend it.
It can be said that most of Compaore’s wealth has already been transferred abroad, but this matter is handled by one of his most trusted secretary and foreign bank manager, Bryce does not know this.
Bryce frowned upon hearing this.
He said displeasedly: “These wealth of yours belong to all the people of Burkina Faso! They were found through illegal means, so they should all be spit out! You should talk about it first, but you still keep it in the country. How much wealth is there in total?”
He said it in a high-sounding manner, but in fact, after getting the money, Bryce won’t give it a penny!
Compaore timidly stretched out two fingers, “There are about 20 million dollars, of which about 10 million are dollars, and the other part is euros and gold.”
Bryce’s eyes lit up, 20 million US dollars, this is definitely an astronomical figure for him!
You must know that even if he is the commander of the General T House Guards, he is considered a high-ranking man, but his monthly salary is less than a thousand dollars.
Although you can also use the convenience of your job to get some oil and water, but the amount is not large.
The main reason is that the old guy Compaore is too stingy, and even his own guards are not willing to spend more money.
If he was really generous and let his brothers drink soup while eating meat, this scene would not have happened today…
How to say it, it can only be said that it is self-inflicted!
But Bryce doesn’t know that it’s true that Compaore has $20 million in assets in the country, but this is only a small part of his total wealth!
The real big head has already moved abroad.
In a well-known international bank, Compaore had a secret account with a deposit of more than three billion dollars…
Although Burkina Faso is very poor, it is still a big country. Compaore has been in power for more than 20 years, and it is normal to find so much money.
After all, in order to “save” expenses, the capital of Burkina Faso does not even open police stations, fire stations and other departments!
The general T-house guard team has really worked hard. The scope of work responsibilities is too wide, and often one person does the work of several people.
…
Bryce, after all, is someone who has never seen the big world, and was instantly stunned by 20 million dollars.
After hesitating for a long time, he said viciously: “That’s all? If you dare to lie to me, you will know the consequences!”
Compaore hurriedly said: “It’s really that much! I don’t have much money abroad, I just bought two houses, and I have a deposit of hundreds of thousands of dollars, and that money will be left for my retirement. All right.”
If what Compaore said is true, then Bryce is not unacceptable.
But he always felt that Compaore seemed to be hiding something from himself…
However, there is not much time to entangle with him at this meeting, and I still have more important things to do.
Tonight’s action, Bryce and two absolute henchmen are divided into three ways.
This side has already brought the General T House under control, and the other two roads are under martial law throughout the city, and no one is allowed to come out.
The other way is to control several core institutions, such as national TV stations.
Now, Bryce is going to go to the TV station and give an urgent speech, which is also to let his “allies” know that he has firmly controlled the situation and that they can start to cooperate with him.
After he was busy with these important things, he planned to come over and question Compaore carefully.
Of course, after the situation has stabilized in two days, Compaore must also make an appearance on TV to prove that his “succession” is legitimate.
As for Compaore, let’s “dispose” it in secret after it’s no longer useful.
Keeping him is always a hidden danger!
