Expedition to Europe
Chapter 611: Self-inflicted trouble
Cherif Abdul Rahim is a lawyer.
To be precise, Cherif Abdul Rahim is a French-Algerian lawyer.
The profession of lawyer has been a high-end profession since the day it appeared, a profession that is not very respected but has a high social status.
Cherif Abdul Rahim is such a person. As an Algerian, Rahim is not very popular in Paris, but in Algeria, Rahim is a member of the upper class of Algiers, a respected and successful person, and has a high reputation among Algerians.
When Rahim was young, he moved to Paris with his father, received a modern systematic education in Paris, and then became a lawyer and won many lawsuits. In the process, Rahim gained countless money and corresponding social honors.
If Rahim is a pure Parisian, then Rahim's future social trajectory is likely to go into politics and become a politician who is proficient in law and well versed in rules.
Unfortunately, Rahim is not. No matter how hard Rahim tries, he is always labeled as an Algerian, which makes him feel embarrassed and out of tune with Paris.
Don't blame Parisians. In the eyes of Parisians, London is a rural area, not to mention Algeria. Although Algeria is also French territory in name, if you take out a map, nine out of ten Parisians will point to the wrong location of Algeria.
Rahim also tried to integrate into Parisian society, but the differences in religious customs and living habits separated Rahim from Paris. Rahim felt that he could not see any hope. No matter how hard Rahim tried, he would not be recognized in Paris.
The problem is that Rahim is not short of money or status now. What Rahim needs is a sense of social belonging.
Unfortunately, Paris cannot satisfy Rahim on this point.
So at the age of 40, Rahim chose to return to Algiers.
After returning to Algiers, Rahim began to think about his first half of life. After countless days and nights, Rahim came to a conclusion that Rahim was ignored by Paris because he did not have a strong motherland.
So Rahim began to become a democratic fighter and began to try to negotiate with the French government to fight for rights for Algeria. In this process, Rahim gradually became a thorough nationalist.
Since he chose to become a nationalist, "fighting for national independence" became Rahim's motto. Rahim was indeed moving towards this goal firmly. Although it was quite difficult, Rahim believed that he and Algeria would eventually succeed.
In fact, the headquarters of the French Foreign Legion was still in Sidi Bel Abbas, Algeria, but in Rahim's view, the French Foreign Legion was not the biggest threat to Algeria. The biggest threat to Algeria was the Lanfang Foreign Legion stationed in the New Baku Oilfield.
In other words, the biggest harm to Algeria was the Lanfang Foreign Legion stationed in the New Baku Oilfield.
Although the Foreign Legion stationed in Sidi Bel Abbas is the headquarters of the French Foreign Legion, building the headquarters in Sidi Bel Abbas will not only not bring harm to Sidi Bel Abbas, but will also promote the economic development of Sidi Bel Abbas due to the flow of population. This is a good thing in a way, and Rahim is also happy to see it happen.
But the Lanfang Foreign Legion stationed in the New Baku oil field is the biggest thorn in Rahim's heart.
Although the Lanfang Foreign Legion stationed in the New Baku area has only one infantry regiment, New Baku has an oil field. Every day, dozens of oil wells extract oil from the underground of New Baku, and then turn it into cash and fly into the pockets of the boss of United Oil. Whenever Rahim thinks of this, he can't help but feel heartbroken, as if those oil wells are not pumping oil from the underground of New Baku, but pumping Rahim's blood.
You know, in Rahim's concept, all the oil underground in Algeria is the hope of Algeria's revival. Rahim has long regarded those oil as his own property, so Rahim can't tolerate the theft of the New Baku Oilfield no matter what. As long as he is still alive, Rahim will fight to the end.
That's right, Rahim thinks that the exploitation of the New Baku Oilfield is theft, so all the workers and engineers working for United Petroleum are thieves in Rahim's eyes and should be purified.
With such extreme thoughts, it is not difficult to understand why Rahim has such great hostility towards United Petroleum.
As mentioned above, Rahim is an upper-class person with status and position in Algiers. Such a person can easily gather a group of "like-minded" people around him. Rahim calls their organization the "Prophet Alliance" and also calls himself a "prophet".
Calling himself "prophet" in the third person shows that Rahim is not light.
As a "prophet", Rahim is also busy with official duties. He has to make friends with all kinds of people and get as much support as possible to build momentum for himself and the "Prophet Alliance".
Recently, Rahim has been traveling frequently between Algiers and Tunisia. In order to deal with the giant United Petroleum, Rahim has close contacts with Basel.
"Sir, Mr. Jorgensen wants to see you." On the train from Algiers to Tunisia, Rahim's entourage reported to the box with a low head and a pleasant ear.
"Mr. Jorgensen, please invite him in quickly." Rahim knew who Jorgensen was and also knew Jorgensen's influence on the Prince of Basel, so Rahim did not dare to neglect Jorgensen.
After a while, a middle-aged man with a big belly came to Rahim's box.
This middle-aged man is extremely bloated, and his waistline is probably about the same as his height. When he walks around, he looks like a meat ball rolling on the ground. If you look at the three layers of fat on this middle-aged man’s chin, It is estimated that everyone has the urge to go up and kill him.
"Ahaha, my friend Rahim, I'm so happy to see you." The voice of the visitor was loud, especially when he was laughing, but unfortunately, not much could be heard from this person's laughter. Cheerful, but mostly obscene.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Jorgensen." Rahim's expression did not change much.
In recent times, Rahim and Basel have spent more time meeting each other, so Rahim is no stranger to Jorgensen, who serves as Basel's think tank. Rahim and Jorgensen are already quite familiar with each other.
"Have you heard? The New Baku Oilfield has implemented a new regulation. If you want to work in the New Baku Oilfield, you must sign a statement and cannot affect production work due to religious activities. I don’t know what you think about this. What do you think?" The two sat down separately, Jorgensen wasting no time.
"It's unbelievable that such stupid things can still happen in this era. I think the New Baku oil field will incur the anger from all of Algeria. The angry crowd will flood and destroy the New Baku area, and it will turn into a desert again." Shim didn't mean what he said.
I really don’t mean what I say. If the new Baku area really turns into a desert again, I’m afraid Rahim will be the most sad. What Rahim wants is a strong and unified Algeria, not a ****** Or Algeria returning to feudal society.
"Haha, I think it's the same. The hearts of those United Oil guys are as black as oil. They have no bottom line in their hearts and have no respect for the gods. In order to make money, they actually dare to blaspheme the gods. These guys deserve hell," Jorgensen added.

"What about you? As far as I know, you have the same problem as us. It is true that United Petroleum controls New Baku, but United Petroleum also controls the Basel Petroleum Development Company. I am afraid that the Prince of Basel does not want to see this. situation." Raheem didn't show any signs of weakness.
If the person sitting opposite Rahim was in Basel, maybe Rahim could restrain himself a little bit, but facing Jorgensen, Rahim knew very well that this fat guy was the same as those guys from United Oil. The bottom line "infidel", no matter how Jorgensen caters to Rahim, Rahim is very clear about Jorgensen's purpose.
In this case, there is no need to be secretive.
"Basel Petroleum Development Company, this is indeed a problem. You know, the Prince of Basel wants to take back control of the Basel Petroleum Development Company. This is a company named after the Prince of Basel. Of course, the Prince of Basel does not want to be Others control." Raheem responded selectively.
"Then this is easy to handle. At least at this stage, we have a common goal, which is to deal with United Oil Company, drive them out of North Africa, return the New Baku oil field to Algeria, and return the Basel oil field to the conflict "Nice, if you agree with this conclusion, I think we can take a step further this time, a big step forward." Rahim has a vision for the future.
During this period, Rahim traveled frequently between Algiers and Tunisia in order to reach an agreement with Basel. If Rahim and Basel exert their efforts at the same time, Rahim is sure to cause greater trouble for United Oil.
Of course, the level of trouble may not be enough for United Oil to withdraw immediately, but as long as it persists, one day United Oil will be overwhelmed. By then, it will be Rahim's time to reap the joy of success.
"Yes..." Jorgensen responded promptly.
Just when Jorgensen started to speak, someone suddenly knocked on the box door.
"Come in!" Rahim still retained the respect of upper class people.
The door was gently pushed open, and a stranger came in wearing a turban and a robe, which is a very normal dress in North Africa.
"You are?" Rahim suddenly felt a little bad.
"The prophet is on top!"
The man suddenly shouted, then took out two pistols from his arms and fired wildly at Rahim and Jorgensen.
Bang bang bang...
North Africa finally descended into madness.
