"Since then, the mining site hasn't been peaceful, frequently harassed by small private armed groups. Three of the security personnel we hired have been killed."
General Manager Li frowned and asked, "The government did this?"
Ye Hanwen sneered, "I've negotiated with the government people, but naturally, they won't admit to such things. Though those armed groups officially have no ties with the local government, anyone can see who they're taking orders from."
The room fell silent.
Qi Yun understood what was going on. Small countries like this love pulling these stunts; the news is always full of reports about them; they're experts at burning bridges.
General Manager Bi tapped the table and spoke, "The key is the deposit at that mining site. We've had agencies measure it; it'll last at least another ten years. Recover it for thirty million USD? They think we're a charity or something?"
General Manager Li turned to look at Ye Wenhuan and asked, "So is there any solution now?"
