Ye Qing is the son of Ye Qianqian, and there is an age gap of fifteen years with Ye Wu, the second eldest son of the Ye family.
Therefore, most people would only have a few associations with the surname, and would never dare to think that Ye Wu was his second brother.
What's more, there are so many people named Ye in the world.
But Ma Baobao's tone was firm, and even after she denied it, she didn't believe her own words.
"Wang Xue, am I a bit overwhelmed?"
Wang Xue pursed her lips and smiled: "Although the Ma family runs a jewelry and jade company, there are only two ways for them to purchase jade from northern Myanmar, one is from the Burmese public market, and the other is from the mining area. Of course, the jadeite rough purchased from the mining area If you want to secretly transport it back to the country, do you still need to apply to pay taxes at the ports of the two countries?"
Ye Qing nodded. He didn't dare not pay taxes on the jadeite stones he bought from the public auction. However, because there are no legal procedures for raw stones purchased from mining areas, they will be detained after arriving at the port, which may even lead to unexpected disasters. So they can only be smuggled back to the country.
Precisely because the purchase of rough stones is mainly based on smuggling, they are extremely sensitive to changes in official circles.
Before the change of office this year, a chief official was parachuted into Dehong Prefecture. The life background of this chief official has naturally become the focus of the Ma family's attention.
"So, she has long known that Ye Wu is my second brother."
"In fact, just because Fourth Brother is the highest officer of the armed police force in Yun Province, she has a reason to fawn over you." Wang Xue said softly: "Although you and Qi Yu have an irreversible friendship, the relationship is Qi Yu's after all. To her, It's not safe to say that if something happens to the Ma family in the future, you might help, but you're more likely to just stand by and watch."
Ye Qing said slowly: "So, her wanting to do the smuggling business is actually a kind of temptation."
Wang Xue shook her head: "It's not all a test. These border residents don't have much respect for the law from the bottom of their hearts. The benefits of smuggling are huge, especially targeted smuggling.
The caravan is gone, and these armed forces that rely on the caravan for blood transfusion are her potential customers. Even if you don't do business with the Mu family and the Zhu family in the Golden Triangle, you can still do business with the Karen, Wa, and Northern Shan State armies.
In order to obtain domestic supplies, these armed forces in northern Myanmar even paid the Ma family first to ensure the Ma family's profits.
If you count as a share and ensure that domestic officials turn a blind eye, this business will be more secure. "
Ye Qing nodded, what he said made sense.
Originally, my focus was limited to Kokang because I had not dealt with the United Wa State Army, the Karen Army, or the Northern Shan State Army.
Therefore, they are automatically ignored.
But they forgot that there was not only Zhang Botao in Wa Village, but also Xu Sheng'an.
If this smuggling channel could be opened, it would be a river flowing with gold and silver for all of them.
However, if you want to open this smuggling channel, you must not only pass the domestic official level, but also the Muse Sanxiong level.
He let out a sigh of relief: "The Ma family is really greedy."
Wang Xue smiled brightly, no one was doing the business of losing money, but there were people who were doing the business of beheading. The young master only saw various mineral deposits, so he turned a blind eye to this kind of business.
But the gap left by the caravan will always have to be filled.
Ye Qing turned around and saw the doorman standing pitifully beside the car. He wanted Wang Xue to drive away and not block the hotel door, but he didn't dare to speak.
This Army Green Land Rover with a Muse license plate has become a nightmare for two big hotels in Mogok.
"Okay, I'm getting off the car." Ye Qing opened the door and got out of the car, then casually put a hundred-dollar bill into the doorman's hand.
The doorman bowed and thanked: "Thank you, Mr. Ye."
Ye Qing waved his hand and went straight to the elevator.
With handsome appearance and graceful figure, Ma Baobao, wearing a bright red dress, became the focus of everyone's attention when she appeared in the third-floor restaurant.
The smile on her face was as warm and hot as the dress on her body.
In just ten minutes, several waves of people invited her to have lunch with her.
However, she politely declined them all.
When Ye Qing, who was wearing casual clothes, walked into the restaurant, many people dropped their knives and forks on the floor, and even accidentally knocked over their wine glasses.
Mogok is so big, and there are only two hotels run by the Presbyterian Church.
Ye Qing went on a killing spree in these two hotels...
Ye Qing walked to the table chosen by Ma Baobao and sat down. The beautiful waiter walked over quickly, with a hint of fear in the sweet smile on her face.
Ma Baobao said playfully: "My master is really famous in Mogok."
Ye Qing laughed at himself: "It should be because he has a reputation for evil."
Ma Baobao smiled brightly: "I want the steak aged seventeen, Master, how mature do you want it to be?"
"Let's do the same, let's have a bottle of red wine." Ye Qing didn't want to burn the piano and cook the cranes, so he could only do as the Romans did.
Ma Baobao gritted his teeth: "You really want to take me to eat fried noodles?"
"Just like you like rice noodles and rice, I prefer noodles." Ye Qing shook his head and smiled: "But I really can't get used to Western food like steak."
After a while, the beautiful waiter brought two steaks and a bottle of Lafite.
Ma Baobao watched Ye Qing skillfully use a knife and fork, and said with a pout on his red lips: "Master, do you often take girls to eat Western food?"
"Being proficient in using knives and forks is just a social etiquette for me." Ye Qing shook his head, picked up the wine glass and shook it gently: "By the way, after eating this meal, I will send you back."
Ma Baobao looked at him pitifully: "It's hard to come to Mogok, but you have to choose those dirty and smelly stones from the Presbyterian Church's private treasury."
Ye Qing sighed: "Baby Ma, I have something to do in the afternoon. If you want to play, you can go and play by yourself."
Ma Baobao chuckled and said, "Mogok is so dangerous, so don't worry and let me move around freely."
"For others, Mogok is very dangerous." Ye Qing turned to look at a man walking quickly. He was wearing a suit and leather shoes. He looked handsome and looked to be in his thirties. The years had brought him more than just vicissitudes of life. The taste also has a mature temperament.
The visitor quickly walked to Ye Qing's side and took a deep look at Ye Qing.
Ma Baobao stood up and said with a smile: "Let me introduce you, this is my senior brother Mu Jiaqi."
Ye Qing was slightly stunned. He and Mu Jiaqi had been enemies for a long time, but they had never met before. He stood up with a smile, stretched out his hand and said: "Hello Mu Jiaqi, I am Ye Qing."
Mu Jiaqi held his hand: "To be honest, I have wanted to meet the young master for a long time, but unfortunately, I have never found the opportunity."
Ye Qing smiled: "It's easy for the Second Young Master to find me, because I'm always at the Red Star Group office. But I wanted to find the Second Young Master, but I searched all over Mogok. During this period, the Second Young Master also hid a lot of things. You must be tired! Today you have the heart of a bear and the courage of a leopard, and you dare to show up at the Red Dragonfly Hotel."
Mu Jiaqi smiled like a spring breeze: "I'm afraid that the young master will have to work too hard to find him."
