Chapter: 2715
Thinking about this, Su Shoudao couldn’t help but plead, “Mr. Ye, please don’t send me to Africa… I’m old and I can’t handle that kind of hardship…”
Charlie Wade smiled and replied, “Mr. Su, you’re worrying too much. I have nothing to do with Africa. Even if I wanted to send you there, I wouldn’t know where.”
Su Shoudao felt relieved. To him, as long as he didn’t go to Africa, he would be okay. He thought that even Myanmar and Cambodia were better in terms of conditions and safety than Africa.
Curiously, he asked, “Mr. Ye, where are you planning to send me?”
Charlie smiled slightly and said just three words: “Syria!”
When Su Shoudao heard this, he felt a rush of anxiety. “Syria?! Isn’t that a war zone?! How can I be safe going there now?”
Su Zhiyu spoke up nervously, “Benevolence, the situation in Syria is unstable. There are armed forces fighting, and the U.S. is involved with military operations. It’s too dangerous. Can we choose somewhere else?”
Charlie shook his head. “It’s hard to change, so I’ll send you to Syria.”
Seeing Su Shoudao’s worry, Su Ruoli tried to comfort him. “Don’t worry too much. The situation in Syria is indeed tense, but the capital, Damascus, is still quite safe. The opposing forces haven’t attacked there.”
She continued, “Damascus has a rich history and is modernizing well. The per capita GDP in Syria is not low.”
Hearing this, Su Shoudao felt a little better. Although he had never been to Syria…
As Su Shoudao listened, he felt a surge of happiness at the thought of going to Damascus. He remembered that, even though Syria was often in conflict, it wasn’t entirely poor; it was considered a middle-income country. He thought, “If I go to the capital, I can experience the unique culture. And if Zhiyu becomes the head of the Su family, then I will be the father of the Patriarch, living a life of privilege when I return!”
Excited by this idea, he quickly said, “Since Mr. Ye has arranged this, I have no objections.”
Charlie Wade, looking intrigued, replied, “Oh, Mr. Su, I almost forgot to mention—my friend is a leader in the Syrian opposition. Just a few days ago, he had a victory against the government forces. He knows a lot about the situation and speaks Chinese well, so it will be easier for you to communicate with him.”
He continued, “But you need to be careful when you get to Syria. Once the fighting starts, make sure to protect yourself. You don’t want to get caught in the crossfire.”
Hearing this made Su Shoudao anxious. “What?! The opposition? Mr. Ye, why would you want me to be involved with them?!”
Charlie smiled and said, “Didn’t you say you wanted to experience something new? You’ve lived a comfortable life for so long; why not try something different?”
Panicking, Su Shoudao replied, “But what if your friend loses? I could really be in danger there…”
Charlie nodded thoughtfully. “You make a good point. By the way, do you have any US dollar assets that you can access easily overseas?”
Su Shoudao hesitated, considering the risks ahead.
After thinking for a moment, he said, “Most of the Su family’s assets are controlled by the old man. However, I can also transfer tens of millions of dollars. It’s not a huge amount, so he won’t notice it.”
Charlie Wade quickly replied, “That’s great! When you get to Syria, please transfer the money to my friend. Think of it as supporting the people’s revolutionary cause.”
