"It's over."
When I met Leyden, he made me laugh with just one sentence.
He didn't even ask me why I was in Mengmao, but just dropped his shoulders and said these two words.
Outside the door of a small bungalow, I walked slowly to the door light, leaned on the stone table in front of the window, and asked, "You have been here for so long, should you be done?"
I mean, even if a good bird chooses a tree to roost in, after considering it for so long, can't it still be decided?
When Laiden defected to me, he made it clear that he was the leader of the Wa tribe. He didn't say what special departments he held. Doesn't this explain the problem?
"Master Xu, you...have known this for a long time?"
I answered honestly: "If I had known I could wait until today to come to you?"
"I figured it out after someone gave me some advice."
Leyden stretched out his hand and pointed eastward, and I nodded in the direction he pointed.
At this moment, Leyden raised the wooden pipe that he was rubbing in his hand, took out the tobacco from his pocket, put it into the pipe and pressed it. After compacting it, he said: "It's really good to enjoy the cool weather with the big tree behind you. "
And I directly asked the question I was most concerned about: "What news is there from the Myanmar government?"
"They don't care about us. Aung San Suu Kyi's gentle and gentle policies are in fierce conflict with Min Leon's thunderous methods..."
I quickly waved my hand when I heard this: "Don't say so many high-sounding words about me. I just want to know if it is possible for the two of them to unite the front."
Leiden raised his chin confidently and said, "That's absolutely impossible."
"Leon Min despises this woman from the bottom of his heart." At this point, Leiden suddenly covered his mouth: "Sir, let's... don't test each other out, why don't we just get to the point?"
I didn't even look at him: "What's your move? I used to do it with Lao Qiao, but now I'm doing it with the West Asians. When we two old Chinese medicine doctors meet, we shouldn't check each other's pulse. If we do this again, If you have some unspeakable disease, how can you show it on your face?"
Leyden quickly put the pipe into his mouth and smiled sheepishly.
"How is the old street?"
"It's still like that. Each of the four major families controls one side and develops horizontally, hoping to quietly overwhelm the other three through strength. As a result, the situation in Kokang has become very tense, just like an arms race during the Cold War. Each family Risking one's life to make money, plus a Ming family controlling internal affairs, it's very lively."
"I'm asking you if they can free up their hands and send troops to attack."
Leiden smiled mischievously: "Sir, if they can't get out of Guogang, they have to turn around and go back. Otherwise, they have to beat the drum in their hearts, for fear that someone will hack them. The Bai family's trick on Peng, the boss, has already made several big families I’m getting sick.”
"Then Lin Manmiao doesn't steal the chicken but loses the rice?"
"I really know this."
"Since Lin Manmiao came to Kokang, she has been running up and down, provoking the Bai family with hatred, provoking two people with money, and finally involved herself in it, provoking the Wei family. As a result, the four major families took the Ming family to sit in When we had a meeting together...we suddenly changed the things we agreed to do."
"They promised to send troops before, hahahahaha, but in the end they played tricks on Lin Manmiao!"
I said to myself: "No wonder Lin Manmiao was so arrogant before, and now there is no movement. This is because she is completely trapped in Guogang and cannot come back."
“What about Eastern Shan State?”
Leiden groaned and said, "It's very dangerous!"
"How to say?"
"The news my people brought back from Mengbo said that a group of R people went to Mengbo under the pretext of doing business."
I narrowed my eyes and looked into the distance: "Is it after I burned that divine toilet?"
"It was after they protested to the United Nations but received no feedback, and even the Myanmar government did not respond directly."
Aung San Suu Kyi of the Myanmar government is fighting with Min Lei Aung, so how can she have time to respond to you? Then doesn’t Country R have the only option left to fund Eastern Shan State to cause trouble for me?
When I had seen the whole situation clearly, I turned my head and said, "How many shares does Mr. Dabao have on the Zhao family's boat?"
This is obvious. Who doesn’t want to bring in the surrounding powerful people when doing business? If Da Bao doesn’t hold any shares, how can he, Zhao, be so sure of the news about the Wa State and dare to auction it publicly on a cruise ship?
call.
As if he had finally waited for this day, Leiden let out a long breath and walked back to the room. Soon after, he took out a bank card and an account book.
"Mr. Xu, this is all the proceeds we made on the cruise through intelligence after Mr. Bao died..."
I took the account in my hand, and then left the bank card in Leiden's surprised eyes, and said with a smile: "Since Mr. Bao's death, you have sent money there a lot, right?"
"Master Xu, I have recorded every expense of everyone on our line in the ledger."
The next second, I even stuffed the account book back.
"This should be a confusing account."
Lyden suddenly looked at me.
"We can't ask our subordinates to clearly record how much money they spent while completing their work outside, right? They have to record information in their minds, and they have to hide themselves. If they remember this again, will they still be alive? "
"So I don't ask about the account, whether it's true or not, and you're not allowed to ask either."
I took out a cigarette and lit it for myself and asked: "In previous years, under reasonable circumstances, how much money did you usually have to invest in this line?"
"Over 100 million...including selling information..."
"I'll pay for it, and I'll ask Banbula to pay it when I go back tomorrow." I said formally: "From today on, this line in your hand will only burn money, and there is no need to settle it. If you can make some money, Just reward yourselves.”
I stood up and touched my pocket. I didn’t know when I lost the lighter. Then I remembered that I had thrown the lighter on the coffee table after lighting Team Leader Wei’s cigarette in the hotel...
Crack.
Leyden used the match in his hand to light a fire at night, gathered the flame with his other hand and handed it over.
What I saw was surrender.
Waiting for me to light the cigarette: "Leyden, you have no problem controlling your line here, right?"
"No problem. We all have telephones now, so communication is easy."
I nodded: "How many children do you have?"
Before Leiden could speak: "I remember that you came from Bangkang to join me and brought my son, right? Meng Neng was also in trouble at the beginning, and Meng Mao had just exploded. I was too busy and didn't see that it was so good. A great guy."
"That's it, let him come to my side and be a guard squad leader. He will be aggrieved first, and after he gets some training, I will put him in the army's logistics department."
Leiden didn't say a word, stood up for a long time, and finally nodded heavily.
"Hmm!" He said.
"Okay, let your son come with me."
"I have to go back to Bangkang overnight."
While I was turning around, Leiden grabbed my wrist and said, "Master, I am the only son."
My answer is: "This sentence is too redundant."
On the surface, what I mean is, I won’t send your son to the battlefield, so what are you afraid of? In fact, what I mean is, so what? (End of chapter)
