Seeing Bai Lu's confused expression, Lin Yi took a spoon and skimmed the foam from the hot pot.
"The water in the pot was still clear just now. You can see two dates, two green onions and a piece of ginger floating on it.
Now, I put everything in at once. Can you tell me what's at the bottom of the pot now?
It’s not just catching something, that’s what? "
Speaking of this, Bai Lu suddenly realized.
"Do you want to use Guo Wenbin's hand to find what we are looking for, and then use our advantage underground to escape?"
Lin Yi frowned deliberately and said:
"Hey~ What do you mean by borrowing his hand? It's obviously him who took the initiative to come to us to discuss cooperation. You know, I'm not very good at rejecting others.
What's more, this is a door-to-door business. "
Bai Lu had an expression of joy on her face, but quickly expressed her concerns:
"Brother Lin, if we cooperate with these people, we are seeking the skin of a tiger. If they react, wouldn't we be in danger?"
"We have to discuss this matter carefully. Besides, I still have a hand."
Hearing what he said, Bai Lu was confused again.
The mountains are high here and the emperor is far away, and the Guo family's influence here is so intricate that no one can touch him unless he has some important information in hand.
"You remember that when we were talking today, Guo Wenbin never asked the Ma family to come forward. Don't you think there is a problem here?"
Speaking of this, Bai Lu was also impressed.
Guo Wenbin said that it was "Brother Ma" who went to the hotel to rummage through their luggage, which means that the person named Ma was the first to find out about this matter.
Lao Feng took them to find Guo Wenbin.
It was equivalent to bypassing the Ma family relationship and directly discussing cooperation with Lin Yi.
The purpose couldn't be more obvious.
"You mean, Guo Wenbin wants to monopolize this ton of gold?"
Lin Yi picked up the meat roll, dipped it in sesame sauce, stuffed it into his mouth, and said while eating:
"It was originally a 400 million deal. If one person is added to the deal, half of it will be taken away. If it were you, would you be willing?"
"This is 400 million! But it depends on who is right. If it's one of our own, I have no problem with it."
Bai Lu was not careless at the critical moment.
"On the way back, I asked Lao Feng around the corner. Although the Guo and Ma families are considered 'family friends' and are more or less related to each other, the current relationship between the two families is actually not as good as what the outside world sees. good.
Because the Guo family is relatively powerful now, the Ma family is a bit at a disadvantage, and their right to speak is not as important as the Guo family. I feel a little unbalanced in my heart. "
What he said is that this is human nature.
The Ma family was a prominent presence in Ning Province back then. No matter what Guo Shuanzi said, he was a bandit.
Later, he became the security captain under Ma Hongkui. It sounds a bit ugly, but he was just a dog of the Ma family.
Now, the situation has changed, and the Guo family is stronger than the Ma family. Of course, the Ma family is holding back a sense of resentment.
"The current relationship between the two families is very delicate. I guess the Ma family really wants to get this 'life money', but the Guo family wants to use us to help him find the gold.
There are definitely differences between the two families on this matter.
Moreover, when Guo Wenbin discussed things with us, he did not tell the Ma family that he wanted to monopolize this batch of gold.
After three days, if the Ma family still does not show up, it will confirm my judgment. At that time, this will be an insurance in our hands. "
Bai Lu nodded in understanding.
He is obviously not as sensitive as Lin Yi when it comes to worldliness.
"What are we going to do in these three days?"
"Looking for Li Ling, I want to pay a visit to Mr. Li."
After finishing the meal, the two returned to their residence.
Wang Qiang and Qian Sheng have already finished all the things at hand, and have almost bought everything they need to buy. Tonight, they set off overnight from Shangjing to Ning Province.
Lin Yi repeatedly told them to pay attention to safety on the phone.
And told them both about their experiences here.
"I guess it's because we had the 'Zi Yihou' organization lose several key members one after another, and now we have found skull fossils, which makes them feel threatened.
Now he no longer wants to fight with us openly, he just wants to find an opportunity to kill us. "
Qian Sheng analyzed.
"I didn't expect my head to be so valuable? No, I have to buy insurance now."
Wang Qiang didn't forget to joke while driving.
It seems that no one takes this kind of thing seriously, and they don't even think it is a dangerous or complicated matter.
"Lulu, you are worrying too much. We have never seen big winds and waves. This is still the border of China. When we went to Southeast Asia together, it was still someone else's territory. Isn't the situation more dangerous than this time?"
"That's different. Last time I was secretly accompanied by Achang."
"Isn't there Lao Feng this time?"
Lin Yi interjected.
When Bai Lu heard him mention Lao Feng, she rolled her eyes with a wry smile.
"He'd better forget it. This guy is totally unreliable."
Lin Yi shook his finger at her.
"Then you are wrong about him. This old guy is very smart. Don't look at him looking submissive when things happen to him now. In fact, he has already planned everything in his heart. If you don't believe it, let's just wait and see."
"Old Feng? There was Xiao Li in front of me, and now there's Old Feng. Who are these? Are you here to meet relatives?"
"Fuck you, uncle, these are all our informants. Okay, we will discuss the specific matters when you arrive. It will not affect your driving. Please pay attention to safety on the road. Also, give Wukong meals on time. His schedule is comparable. You two are much more disciplined."
"I know, Brother Monkey is enjoying the hot and spicy food with the two of us. It's pretty cool."
As he said that, Wukong grabbed the ring in the car, put his head close to the camera of his phone, and made a face for Lin Yi.
The next morning, Li Ling specially asked for leave and took them to the old factory area of "Yao Ling San" according to the schedule agreed the night before.
Let's go here to check out some places first, and then go talk to Mr. Li. At least we can find some common topics.
Otherwise, what would a person in his eighties have to talk to you guys who have never met him before?
Lin Yi drove the two of them into Helan Mountain again.
From the moment she entered the mountain, Li Ling's chatterbox couldn't be closed at all.
He told them everything he knew about "Yao Ling San"'s past and present lives.
Just as she was speaking vividly, Lin Yi suddenly stepped on the brakes, swerved, and stopped the car on the side of the road.
"What's wrong?"
Lin Yi turned around and glanced at the rearview mirror.
"There is an SUV with a local license plate that has been following us since we set off, all the way to here."
As soon as they finished speaking, a black off-road vehicle passed their car behind them, turned two corners, and was no longer visible.
"Brother Lin, are you mistaken? This is the only easy way to go into the mountains. Maybe you happen to be on the same road as us."
Lin Yi shook his head.
"No, I just saw it. The scar face we saw yesterday was in the car." (End of Chapter)
