The weather is good, the sea breeze is not strong, and the sun is shining brightly, but the color of the sea is not as blue as I imagined. This is a yacht belonging to Joe Fox. We stopped about 80 nautical miles from the mouth of the Yangtze River. Tu checked the positioning system: "This is it."
I leaned back on the chair, closing my eyes and meditating. When I heard Tu's words, I said, "Be careful. I was ambushed last time. Don't trip over the same rock a second time."
Tu smiled: "The visibility at sea is very high. Unless the opponent has a large fleet, it will be difficult to intercept them at sea. They are not an army after all."
I also smiled: "It's true, but it doesn't hurt to be careful."
There are more than 20 strong black men on my boat, all mercenaries from Africa... I have a little selfishness. I don't plan to return these mercenaries to the sleepy tower.
If possible, I plan to report the news of "death" to Kunta afterwards, and then keep these people by my side for use. After all, a group of professional soldiers who have experienced the test of war are far inferior to the regular army of those powerful countries in terms of military quality, but in terms of personal physical fitness, these African indigenous hunters are from black backgrounds. Best choice!
Moreover, these people are also very willing to stay. They have food and rivers here, and they work as errands in Huahua World with my boss. Carrying guns and fighting in a small country that does not lay eggs, fighting desperately in the jungle, bullets flying everywhere in the melee of warlords, and human life is as cheap as dirt, is it much better
How many people would refuse such a thing if they could not fight, still have money, and could leave that damned place in Africa
Especially for some of the soldiers in Africa who don’t have wives, children or family members, I asked my subordinates to “take care” of them. If there is a chance, they should just stay and forget it. The big deal is to pay some money to the sleeper afterwards. This kind of force, bought for not much money, is still very useful sometimes.
A black man put a silver tray in front of me, poured me wine, and said nothing. I nodded to him, and then gestured to him... The quality of these mercenaries left me speechless, but it's a pity that the language barrier is a big problem. Many of them can't speak English. Fortunately, the previous batch of mercenaries found a translator who could speak the local dialect of country G, and they were able to command smoothly.
"#◎◎%￥※...%!" Tu whispered, the black man immediately nodded, turned and left, and then gathered people to take up their guns and be on guard.
"Tu, don't be so fierce." I smiled: "But if you have time, you can teach them English... After all, you are the only one around me who understands their language best." To have the opportunity to train these guys... Thinking of Tu's super skills, if these guys can learn even a tenth of Tu's level, and there are dozens of such men around me, my future life will be much better.
The way Tu looked at me, let me know that he had already seen through the small calculation in my heart. He didn't agree or refuse. He just checked the time and said calmly: "Boss, they seem to be arriving soon."
After speaking, he pointed to the distance.
On the sea surface in the southeast direction, a small black spot appeared. The black spot was expanding little by little on the sea level. I took a telescope from my hand and looked at it. It was a small motor ship with fishing nets and masts on it, and it was dressed like a fishing boat.
"It's them." I put down the binoculars, then smiled at Tu: "Let the boys prepare."
On the back of our yacht, eight or nine black men in diving suits were ready. At my order, they turned over and jumped into the water one after another, diving into the water with oxygen tanks on their backs...
Ten minutes later, the boat approached us, and someone on the other side was waving a flag. We talked with the semaphore language, got the signal, and then the other side stopped the motor, and the two boats stopped side by side. sampan.
On that fishing boat, there were more than a dozen men looking at us warily. All of them were wearing fishermen’s clothes and rubber waterproof jackets, but they were holding guns in their hands. look like.
I held a thick cigar in my hand, and seeing this battle, I laughed and said, "Luo Kaishan, Boss Luo, we are meeting to discuss business, so there is no need to be so nervous."
"Hahaha..." There was a rough laugh from the other party's boat, and a man in a cotton coat strode out. He was very tall, and he was tall, with wide shoulders and narrow waist, very majestic. , especially the bearded face, which has the demeanor of people from northern Xinjiang, but he spoke with a standard Sichuan accent: "I know that you, brother Chen, are powerful, but I didn't expect you to bring these black children. "
I was standing on the deck, with Tu standing quietly behind me, and on both sides were a dozen black mercenaries, all holding guns. The people on both sides faced each other across the sampan less than two meters away.
"Boss Luo, please come and talk, I have vodka and caviar ready here." I smiled slightly.
"Hahahaha..." Luo Kaishan looked up to the sky and laughed loudly, but he said loudly: "Is Lao Maozi's wine and caviar delicious? I have good live fish here, and I made wine in a while, and it was very fresh! Brother Chen, please come over and talk. We'll have a drink and talk."
silence…
The two of us stared at each other for a long time, and we seemed to be worried, and we didn't dare to go to each other's boat easily.
snort…
I sneered all over: "Boss Luo, it's so windy at sea, we can't just shout from a long distance like this."
Luo Kaishan also squinted his eyes: "Brother Chen, I know how powerful you are. I can't afford your vodka and caviar, so let me do something and treat you to a drink."
"Okay!" I suddenly waved my hand in response, and laughed loudly: "Since Boss Luo refuses to show his face, then it's hard to say, I have to let my little brother trouble you!"
After finishing speaking, I didn't hesitate anymore, and walked towards the sampan with big strides. Luo Kaishan couldn't help being a little surprised when he saw that I came across the boat so quickly, and his eyes showed a bit of admiration for my courage.
I walked to the other party's boat, and a butcher followed me closely, and the other subordinates stood by the boat. Luo Kaishan was stunned for a while, and immediately realized, laughed, and said: "Okay, it's windy here, let's talk in the cabin." After speaking, he was about to come over and hold my hand.
But I got rid of it lightly, smiled, and said: "The wind is just right, cool and breathable. Why don't we just set up a table of wine and food on the deck, eat and talk while watching the sea view, blowing the sea breeze, it is refreshing!"
"Okay!" Luo Kaishan nodded immediately. I'm so bold to board his boat, he can't be too stingy. Within a few minutes, a table was moved to the deck, and the two of us sat opposite the table. A table of dishes and two bottles of wine were quickly placed on the table.
The fish is very fresh sea fish, but other dishes are not so good, most of them are canned food and the like. The two bottles of wine are authentic Moutai. We toasted each other first, and took a sip, Luo Kaishan smiled and said: "Brother Chen, it is better to see once than to hear a hundred times. It is said that your fifth master is very courageous, today I, Lao Luo, have seen it!"
"Just kidding... I'm actually very timid. It's just that I know Boss Luo is here to make friends with me. Boss Luo will keep his word, so naturally he won't deceive me. Since we are friends, why should I worry about it?" of?" I smiled slightly.
Luo Kaishan's face froze, and then he said: "Brother Chen, what you said is reasonable, I made a slip of the tongue, I should be punished!"
After speaking, he poured himself a drink.
To be honest, sitting on the deck and drinking like this is really uncomfortable, the sea breeze is blowing, and it is still a bit chilly. What's more important is that there are people standing around with guns in their hands staring at the side, this wine really doesn't taste much. But on someone else's territory, I dared to board his boat to overwhelm him. But if I really go into the cabin with him... I'm not that stupid and bold. Be brave, but it doesn't mean you have no brains.
Seeing that I was surrounded by everyone without changing my face, Luo Kaishan's eyes became more appreciative, he lowered his wine glass, and said seriously: "Brother, although you and I have never met, I have admired your name for a long time. gone."
"Boss Luo's name is also like a thunderbolt to my ears."
"You're welcome! I, Luo Kaishan, have a little reputation, but it's just a favor from my brothers." Luo Kaishan shook his head and said: "You, brother, have been in the limelight recently. There are not a few people who have stumbled under your hands recently. At least Leihu's face turns pale when he mentions your name now. Haha!"
Here we come, I thought to myself, put down my wine glass, looked at him, and didn't speak.
"Originally, now there is some misunderstanding between Brother Chen and us. When I, Lao Luo, meet you at this juncture, it is more or less a melon field. It is inevitable that the brothers in the gang will criticize me. However, for the lives and deaths of the many brothers in the two families, I have to. Putting all this aside, let's sit down and talk with my brother." Luo Kaishan looked righteous, and then sighed: "Recently, brother, you have made that old boy Leihu miserable."
"That's a personal grievance. It's just a personal grievance between me and Leihu. It has nothing to do with the friendship between the two brothers." I laughed and said with a smile: "I don't think Boss Luo has much friendship with Leihu, does he? If Luo If the boss wants to stand up for Leihu, then just punish the younger brother. If the boss Luo speaks up, the younger brother will naturally give him some face."
"Okay!" Luo Kaishan couldn't help being stunned for a moment when he saw how straightforward my answer was, but he slapped the table without losing the opportunity, and said with a smile: "Since Brother Chen speaks frankly, I won't play around in circles anymore! Leihu offended you, another day I am the master, let him come to apologize to you, everyone drinks at the same table, if there is any conflict, throw it in the wine, and swallow it in one gulp. Speaking of you and I are both in the same vein, brother, you have also stood up to it This signboard is a mess. Now that brothers are killing each other, it is always a joke for outsiders!"
"Oh." I picked up the wine glass, covered half of my face, and said calmly: "Brothers killing each other... I don't know what Boss Luo means... Well, in our big circle, brother killing each other, such a crime, should be punished." How to punish?"
"..." Luo Kaishan's expression was suffocated, and his face became gloomy: "Brother, you..."
"Face, love, I will give what should be given. But private is private, public is public. Everyone brings many brothers to eat, and there are many eyes watching! If there are no rules, in the future Brother, I can't bring my subordinates to eat. Today, I, Chen Yang, can go all the way to the sea to blow the wind, and meeting you, Boss Luo, is enough to show my sincerity. So, Boss Luo, how do you punish me? Little brother, little brother, I will continue. But Leihu's business is still business-like!"
"..." Luo Kaishan stopped talking.
"Betraying my brother, killing each other, three knives and six holes! Killing my brother, life for life! This rule is not what I, Chen Yang, said." I said coldly: "The matter of Leihu, after the incident, Boss Luo, you want to kill me!" How I accept punishment is easy to discuss, but if this matter is not resolved for a day, what about my wine... Hehe! But I can’t drink happily all day!" After speaking, I slapped the wine glass on the table heavily.
Wow!
The people around immediately raised their guns nervously, and I sneered: "What's the matter? Is Boss Luo trying to help Leihu get ahead?"
"Put it down." Luo Kaishan drank in a deep voice: "There are no rules!"
Then he stared at me: "So, brother, are you determined to fight Leihu to the end?"
snort! Put on a show! I sneered secretly in my heart, what this guy said was "fight to the end with Leihu", but not "fight to the end with us", so although the question was very tough in the words, he had already taken himself out. A cunning character. And... don't look at him pretending as if he wants me to bow my head and strike, in fact, he can't wait for me to fight Leihu to death! If I want to cease fire now, I'm afraid he will be the first to refuse!
"Not bad." I looked at the chopsticks in my hand and replied casually.
"If... this beam, I must help Leihu uncover it?" Luo Kaishan sighed: "Brother, I also have difficulties as a brother! After all, I am a brother in a gang, but I can't just sit idly by!"
Well, this is a hint that I am asking for conditions.
I curled my lips and said with a smile: "Boss Luo, I have heard about your character. Now in the big circle, after the death of the previous generation of Boss Liu, what is the position of the boss? Based on seniority and popularity, that position was originally It's your turn to take the seat, but Leihu is a cunning and despicable old boy who snatched this seat with all kinds of tricks. Now he has committed such an unforgivable crime. Boss Luo, why bother with your reputation for the rest of your life? he… "
"Hey..." This guy sighed, with a helpless expression on his face, but it seemed that he was indifferent to the sky: "After all, he is a brother for many years. Even if I, he does something wrong, I can only help carry it together, but , Alas, now that the field has reached this level, I am also sorry for the dead Boss Liu..." He shook his head and sighed repeatedly when he said this. The expression on this face is quite lifelike, and he has done a lot of drama. If you don't know him well, you may be fooled by his attitude.
"A manly man pays attention to distinguishing between public and private." I didn't watch him act, and said indifferently: "Boss Luo, you are so ignorant! The matter was brought about by Leihu, but you want the brothers in the whole circle to follow him to take care of the bag. How can there be such a reason? Besides, I have been a little more ruthless in my actions, and I have gone too far in my methods. But I am also targeting Leihu instead of the whole circle. Speaking of which, if it wasn’t for Leihu’s tricks, I'm afraid we are still a family now!"
"It's just..." Luo Kaishan sighed: "It's just that Leihu is the leader of the big circle after all..."
"Hmph! This kind of guy is also worthy of this position!" I sneered: "The leader of the gang, naturally, there must be a suitable person to sit! A guy like Leihu, who has no talent, no virtue, and no heart Sitting on it, I'm afraid it will miss the livelihood of the brothers in the big circle!" When I said this, I lowered my voice and said slowly: "I think that Boss Luo's reputation is very suitable for leading the big circle. If the big circle can Under the leadership of Boss Luo, my little five will be the first to congratulate immediately!"
There was a flash of light in this fellow's eyes, I knew that this was what he was waiting for.
It's just that the play still needs to be done, he seems to be a little hesitant: "I... well, brother, I'm getting old, besides... Brother Wang Shanhu is also very prosperous now, and many of Boss Liu's people have also voted for him. I think, In the future, Brother Shanhu will be the boss, which is also good."
This is duplicity, I smiled, it seems that I still want to give some sweetness, I said in a low voice: "Well... let me say something that shouldn't be said... Wang Shanhu has enough qualifications, but he is courageous and What about your stamina, but you are a little worse than you, brother. If you, Boss Luo, are willing to stand up and uphold justice, and calm down this civil strife, brother, I will be the first to stand up and support you to take the big guy to make a fortune! And... I don't think Brother Shanhu will argue with you, Boss Luo."
"Oh? You..." Hearing what I said, Luo Kaishan couldn't help being tempted.
I leaned on the chair and said with a leisurely smile: "I heard that Shitou recently brought a group of people to work with Shanhu, but you must know that Shitou and I had a friendship in Canada back then."
Luo Kaishan glanced at me, and the meaning in that look was clearly: I knew it was you who was playing tricks!
However, the face drama still needs to be played: "This matter is not small, I will discuss it carefully when I go back... However, if the civil strife in the big circle can be quelled, and the brothers will no longer be scattered, Luo Kaishan will work hard." This old bone, stand up and do something for the brothers, even if you do your best... that, die... die... "
He didn't seem to read much, he said half a sentence, but the second half of the sentence was lost. I suppressed a smile, but hurriedly said: "It's only after death! Boss Luo is so brave!"
"Well, that's right, that's the reason! Do your best and die!" His face was already flushed, but fortunately, his beard was not so obvious.
However, this guy has been able to mess around until now, and his face is naturally not as thick as usual. He pondered for a while, and then calmed down: "Also, you know it too, brother. Your recent actions have turned your hands around for a while. Cloud, turn your hands into rain! This method has caused us brothers to suffer. The recent loss of business has made the brothers unable to stop! Brother Wang Shanhu, he has a general like a stone to help , I'm here, but..." After finishing speaking, his eyes rolled around, he just looked at me, but deliberately stopped talking.
This means: You are the backup for the gang who got the stone for Wang Shanhu. Do you want to express something to me? If there is no benefit, just talking and not practicing, asking me to help you do Leihu is not such a cheap thing.
I smiled, picked up the wine glass, pointed to the distance of the sea, and said with a faint smile: "After the matter is completed, the market on the other side of the sea, my brother can still be a bit of the master. From now on, please Boss Luo should take care of it more. It is related to the livelihood of many brothers in the big circle... It is up to Boss Luo to take care of it."
When I hinted that I would hand over the North American market to him in the future, Luo Kaishan's face immediately flushed with excitement, and he coughed hard, and then suppressed his excitement, but his voice was a little hoarse: "Brother... are you here?" Draw a cake to amuse your brother and me?"
"Brother, you also know that I didn't have much interest in this drug business. It used to be the same, and it will be the same in the future. What's the point of me occupying this market? I can't just take advantage of those guys in South America, right?"
Before I could finish speaking, Luo Kaishan snorted: "What about Wang Shanhu?"
I didn't answer him, but just said lightly: "This guy Shitou is an old friend of mine. He is also a stubborn guy. Will he help Wang Shanhu? It's also because he can't understand Leihu's actions. Wait for Leihu's business." Now, what should be neutral is still neutral... Do you think that the people left by Boss Liu are really willing to obediently listen to that lynx?" After finishing speaking, I picked up a glass of wine, drank it down, and said in a low voice. Praise: "Good wine!"
In my words, I have made it clear: Those people in Shitou are just helping Wang Shanhu to fight Leihu. After beating Leihu, they will no longer obey Wang Shanhu... Leihu is down. Do you live in Wangshanhu
"..." Luo Kaishan's eyes were a bit complicated, he stared at me for a long time hesitantly, obviously struggling inside. Finally, he slapped his thigh: "Chen Yang, how can I trust you!"
Holding my glass of wine, I said leisurely: "When I was young, I heard a sentence from an uncle next door to my house. That neighbor was in his forties at the time, and he had been honest all his life. He would never steal, rob, gamble or whore... He said : A small gamble is fun, but a big gamble hurts the body."
Hearing me suddenly change the subject, Luo Kaishan was a little dazed, looking at me not knowing what I meant.
I smiled and continued: "Later, I met another person who told me: How many times can a person face a lifetime of opportunities? Sometimes, he has to take a fucking gamble! If he loses, he will die." Desolate, if you win, you will be the Heavenly King!!"
Having said that, I looked into Luo Kaishan's eyes: "Oh, this sentence was said by an old gambler I know. Well... you know, what happened to the person who told me these two sentences? ?”
"… What?"
"My neighbor worked as a clerk for the rest of his life, and then he retired and went home, living dryly with his pension. Every morning, he played with flowers and plants, went to the market to buy vegetables in the afternoon, and went to bed on time after eight o'clock in the evening." I laughed. He smiled: "But that old gambler, in a bet later, bet all his belongings, and then he really won the bet. He became rich overnight, drank the best wine, flirted with the most beautiful women, and drove the most expensive car. , lived in the biggest house! Enjoyed vigorously for several years, and then died before the age of forty."
"..." Luo Kaishan was silent for a while, thought for a long time, and then suddenly said: "Okay! Well said!"
He grabbed Zhou Shang's wine bottle, no need for a cup, raised his head and poured a breath into his mouth, wiped his mouth vigorously, and said loudly: "That's right! I'm just going to gamble! If I win, I will Do it vigorously! Even if you lose, it's better than the kind of timid, faded away life!"
I laughed, and then I took out a note from my arms, put it on the table and pushed it slowly.
"What is this?" Luo Kaishan took it over and opened it, and there was a name and a phone number on it.
"This is my friend in North America. I know that the road to the sea has been cut off recently. Boss Luo and the big circle brothers are living a tight life. However, although the road to the sea has been cut off, there are other things. Lu. Boss Luo still has a lot of stock in his hand. You can directly call this person to find this person, and he will arrange to get your goods to Canada. Then... Mr. Sorin will buy your goods. Change the pen When the money comes back, let the brothers relax, and prepare guns and fire. You can’t let everyone do it with Leihu empty-handed, right?”
The number I gave him was the contact on Wick's ship. Although the North American market has been strangled by me, Luo Kaishan can still sell some drugs through this road.
After all, even if you are looking for mercenaries to fight, you still have to pay military expenses! Now I have borrowed a knife to kill someone, so I have to pay a price anyway.
After saying this, I stood up, looked at the sky, and said with a smile: "Okay, I'll finish my drink today. When the big event is over and Boss Luo succeeds in taking over, brother, I will serve you in the biggest hotel in Shanghai." One hundred tables come to congratulate Boss Luo!"
After finishing speaking, I cupped my hands and turned to leave.
"etc!"
There was a shout behind me, and I looked back. Luo Kaishan was holding the note in his hand, staring at me, hesitated, and suddenly said in a low voice: "Chen Yang... you, are you really so confident? Are you afraid that I will kill you today?" You? To be honest, you give me the feeling that you are much more dangerous than Leihu."
"Oh... is it dangerous?" I shrugged, "So what?"
Then I sighed, and said slowly, "Brother, you and I have different paths. Are sharks in the sea dangerous? Tigers in the mountains are dangerous, right? But, is there any conflict of interest between tigers in the mountains and sharks in the sea? Ha ha ha ha… "
Luo Kaishan closed his mouth, as if he was thinking about my two words.
"As for worrying about you killing me here..." I looked into his eyes: "Honestly, I'm worried! I'm really worried. But I know you shouldn't... And, even if you have this idea... Hey! I am Chen Yang Kunshan has been swayed by Leihu, don't I know how to learn better?"
After I finished speaking, I waved my hand, and Tu nodded immediately. His hand tucked into his sleeve pressed the annunciator, and immediately there was a splash of water!
A row of figures quickly appeared from the sea on both sides of the ship! Seven or eight heavily armed black men, wearing a full set of diving equipment, held guns in their hands, and pointed their black muzzles at the people on the boat.
This change immediately changed the color of everyone on Luo Kaishan's boat, and they all turned their guns. At this moment, Luo Kaishan suddenly roared: "Don't move! Don't shoot without my order!"
His complexion was not very good either, he stared at me, and suddenly sighed: "Chen Yang, I guessed that you must have a backhand."
"To each other." I smiled.
"Haha! If I wanted to keep you here just now, I'm afraid your people would have pierced through my boat! Then fight, hehe..." Luo Kaishan raised his brows.
"Look, Boss Luo, it's not a good idea to lose both sides. Otherwise, if the ship is scuttled in the sea, you won't be able to swim to the mainland, right? Hehe... I'm still saying that there is no conflict of interest between tigers and sharks, so what, you Between me, it's still... peace is the most important thing, peace is the most important thing, haha... "
Having said that, I stopped talking, raised my hand, and strode back. Luo Kaishan's subordinates who were standing in front of me couldn't help but be frightened by my laughter. Before Luo Kaishan could speak, he couldn't help but Take two steps back.
I passed the sampan smoothly, and then Luo Kaishan, who was sitting quietly on the chair, suddenly stood up and said loudly: "Okay! Chen Yang, I bet! Just don't forget what you said today! You know, if you cheated People in the big circle, so the ends of the earth, there will be no peace!"
After finishing speaking, he waved his hand: "Start the boat! Let's go!"
Luo Kaishan's boat went away, and many divers in the sea boarded the boat again. Tu stood beside me, and I quietly watched the direction Luo Kaishan's boat was going away...
"Boss, can I have a word?"
"Um?"
"Just now... your conversation was really... hypocritical." Tu's face was indifferent.
I smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Tu, you've made progress."
Hypocrisy? Well, hypocrisy is hypocritical, if you can save people from death, hypocrisy is fine.
