"This is inhumane," General Ross said via video.
Harry laughed.
"General, Abomination caused over 20 million USD in property damage in Harlem District, and these losses are ultimately borne by civilians."
"Not only that, three innocent citizens were crippled, and four citizens hiding in their homes were crushed to death by flying boulders—and that's with ctOS conducting evacuations. If it weren't for ctOS, tell me, how many people would have died during such a battle in a downtown area?"
"Or is it that you have a special scale in your heart to weigh their value?"
"Giving him a chance to fight for the living is already mercy. If he makes any significant contribution in the future, we can consider restoring his rights. What do you think?"
General Ross on the other side of the video did not speak. After all, he also had responsibility for this matter, so he could only tacitly agree with Harry's statement.
"Very well, General. You are about to become Secretary of State, so let me congratulate you in advance. See you later."
The plane landed in Malta, a country with pleasant scenery. Although its territory is not large, it is very developed and has excellent welfare—free education, free medical care, and retirement insurance.
Ian Quinn, the CEO of Quinn International, was doing very well here and even bought the former Prime Minister's residence.
"Welcome, welcome, Mr. Osborn. Malta welcomes you." Ian Quinn smiled kindly and reached out to Harry.
This sounded as if he were the official of Malta.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Quinn." Harry also shook hands with him in a friendly manner.
"How is it here? The scenery is beautiful, the climate is pleasant, and most importantly, there are no annoying Agents and foreign forces eyeing us businessmen. You should also consider immigrating here. I am very familiar with their President, and he would welcome talent like you."
Harry smiled: "I am also very familiar with the President of the United States. Mr. Quinn, have you ever considered immigrating back to your hometown?"
The atmosphere stagnated, and Quinn's fake smile froze.
"Hahaha, just kidding. This is indeed a nice country."
The former Prime Minister's residence in Malta looked like a fortress from the outside and appeared quite magnificent.
The two found a place to sit down and got straight to the point.
Quinn said: "Before we start talking about the Daisy Vein, I want to ask a question: Why is Osborn suddenly interested in the mining industry?"
"Well, it's just a sudden idea. Osborn's consumption of metal is increasing day by day. In order to reduce the impact of external factors, I want to develop some downstream industries that can prioritize supply to Osborn."
"Full industrial chain production? Osborn's appetite is not small."
Harry smiled and didn't speak. There was nothing to respond to. If given the chance, these companies would all love to do all the business.
Everyone is the same in this regard.
"Does Mr. Osborn know what is in this mine?" Quinn asked.
"Mainly sphalerite and chalcopyrite. If you are lucky, there will be stibnite and gold ore. In short, the value is very high, and the produced resources are all needed by Osborn."
Quinn said with his professional smile: "Does Mr. Osborn know about gravitonium?"
Harry looked at this guy for two seconds and nodded: "A hypothetical element, but no one has really seen this thing. If I remember correctly, Dr. Hall is an expert in this area. What are you trying to say?"
Quinn said: "I won't hide it from you. Over the past 20 years, I have searched 6 continents and 12 mines, all for this thing."
Harry nodded to show he understood, then spread his hands: "So what does this have to do with this mine? You wouldn't be telling me that this element is inside, would you? If you want to use this to raise the price, Mr. Quinn, Osborn Group can look for mines elsewhere."
Use a substance that only exists in imagination so far to raise the price? A normal person's thinking is to refuse directly.
Quinn kept staring into Harry's eyes while Harry was speaking. He wanted to know if this young man who led Osborn to where it is today knew something.
To be honest, he wasn't sure where gravitonium was either; after all, it was a hypothetical substance.
But Osborn, a company that had nothing to do with mining, suddenly set its sights on a mine he valued, which made him very confused.
In fact, in terms of scale, Quinn International is much higher than Osborn. After all, Quinn International is a multinational company with business all over the World, and investors come from all over the World. Osborn doesn't have much business abroad, the investor composition is not complicated, and the shares abroad have even been decreasing.
But the technology in Osborn's hands is much better than his, so he must be careful.
But Harry really didn't look like he was lying.
"Actually, Dr. Hall and I are classmates. I know much more about gravitonium—there is indeed a possibility that this substance is under this mine."
Harry rolled his eyes: "Are you serious? Mr. Quinn, if you are serious, I will leave now."
As he said this, Harry was about to stand up.
Quinn hurriedly stopped Harry—his mission this time was to stall this Osborn kid, and he could sell the mine if necessary.
"Wait a minute, Mr. Osborn, that's not what I meant!"
Harry sat back down.
Next, the two conducted a serious negotiation about the mine.
It can be seen that Ian Quinn still doesn't want to sell this mine. He first recommended several mines under his banner that are already being mined to Harry, stating that these mines are very good, and then took out a pile of valuation documents.
Harry just took a look at them and put them back, stating that he didn't come here today to take over someone else's mess, he just wanted to buy a new mine to mine himself, and just happened to test new technology.
Then this guy Quinn went off-topic and asked: What technology? Can it be sold? Can we use it?
Harry stated that it has not been commercialized yet, and there may be opportunities to continue cooperation in the future. Let's continue to talk about serious business.
In short, they talked for several hours without any results. As the saying goes, there are many purposes for negotiations, and they may even take place outside the negotiating table. At this rate, this negotiation seems to take a few days.
Harry appropriately showed impatience and stated that his time out this time was very tight, and there must be results within 3 days.
The impatience shown by Harry was within Quinn's expectations. After all, according to reliable intelligence, the "super soldiers" that Osborn can use locally are pitifully few.
But that is not something he should worry about.
At night, Harry was looking at the night view of Malta in his room.
The time he gave Quinn was 3 days, and it took him 2 days to fly from the United States to Malta, so the action time should be within these 5 days.
In the distance, Harry's private plane flew into the sky.
After the plane flies to high altitude, there will be a spacecraft responsible for transporting Abomination to the space station. This big guy will perform the airborne mission with Frank.
So no matter who is doing it, their intelligence is correct:
In the United States or even on the ground, the super soldiers that Osborn can use are indeed pitifully few.
