Chapter 265 Saint! Talk about "cooperation" with the Saint
Unpredictable nodded without saying a word, just holding the gun tightly in his pocket.
Arturo felt as if he was facing a formidable enemy since he entered the house. He was trembling with fear. After seeing "Snake Girl" inspecting the room, he nodded slightly. Then he quickly pulled out the chair and motioned for "Wells Federo" to sit down.
The first level passed. Unpredictable relaxed a little, but the other party didn't see through his disguise.
This is no better than going to Xinglong Villa to pretend to be "Pence Rodman". At that time, you roughly knew the background and information of each character. As long as you were more careful, there would be no obvious mistakes. But pretending to be Wells Federo at this time is not the case. Basically
It's as if one's eyes are completely dark——
Even if it can be determined that the other party has no contact with Wells, there is no guarantee whether the Southern Tribe has investigated him or how well he understands Wells, so that he may have unintentionally joined the gang.
The reason why he was willing to take this risk was that the goal of this mission was relatively simple. It was just to infiltrate the southern tribe's lair. Even if he was discovered and failed to capture the opponent alive, Mu Zhi would still have the opportunity to use his mind-reading skills to obtain information during a short conversation.
Unpredictable tried his best to behave naturally and looked around the entire slightly dim box.
The walls are very thick, there are no windows, and there is only a passage through the thick wooden door. The glass window on the door cannot be penetrated. At this time, the wooden door has been blocked by the shirtless man outside, completely turning the box into a "secret room."
The original plan of sneaking Uncle Cat into the house didn't work as the old cat didn't even have a place to hide.
Mozhi looked around and thought, and finally his eyes fell on the "Water Snake" mask opposite.
The eyes behind the mask are sharp, and she is wearing a bright yellow patterned robe. The shape is tighter than that of the "Buffalo" and "Elephant". It is a Hesse female costume.
"Water Snake" looked at Mo Zhi while shaking the glass in his hand casually, and the light yellow wine rotated with the shaking of his wrist.
"Mr. Wells, didn't you bring a bodyguard?"
The water snake's voice was a little hoarse, and he looked at the unpredictable and said.
Wells Federo is one of the richest men in Hot Spring City. Not having bodyguards around him is an obvious loophole.
However, of course, Unpredictable was already prepared for this. A confident smile appeared on his face wearing a "mask", and he said calmly:
"It shouldn't be so troublesome to meet the big buyer who bought 10,000 rifles from me, right?"
"Moreover," Mo Zhi looked at the other party as well: "We are all friends of Senator Arturo. With him as a middleman, you will definitely take care of my safety."
Wells is a weapons manufacturer and has smuggled 10,000 repeating rifles through Pence and Airian. He can be considered a "cooperator" of the Southern Tribe. As for now, the Southern Tribe is also demanding from him.
This is something that Mozhi has already analyzed.
Hearing the unpredictable "compliment", Arturo suddenly showed a panic smile on his face and quickly agreed:
"That's right, hehehehe"
"Water Snake" glanced at Arturo lightly, causing him to freeze instantly, and his silly laughter stopped abruptly. The expression on Arturo's entire face suddenly froze, looking extremely strange.
"Water Snake" raised his glass, took a sip, and put it on the table.
Mo Chou noticed her action and understood that the explanation just now was approved.
Many times, the attitude expressed by body movements is often more real and accurate than words. In particular, many actions come from habits, and it is difficult to conceal what is in the heart.
"Haha." Mo Zhi laughed and continued to say in a deep voice:
"Besides, I don't have to worry about you threatening me at all! That means nothing to you or me. Even if you put a gun to my head, you can't control me to make Lei Mingden produce weapons."
"It's impossible even to lower the price. You should have heard that with the current situation of Lei Mingden, it is impossible to produce even one rifle. After all, the Supervision Bureau and the Public Security Bureau are keeping a close eye on it."
"So I'm very sure." Mo Zhi sighed:
"This meeting must be a conversation in the sense of cooperation. For you, it is definitely more beneficial to cooperate with me than to threaten me."
Seeing "Wells Federo" being so "candid", "Snake Girl" said nothing, but fixed her eyes firmly on the person in front of her, as if thinking rapidly, confirming what the other person said one by one.
After continuous testing, Mozhi became more relaxed and pointed at the wine glass in front of the "snake girl":
"Since we are discussing cooperation in a place like a bar, shouldn't you treat me to a drink too?"
The "Snake Girl" came back from her thoughts. Through the holes in the mask's eye area, shallow smile lines could be seen. She smiled.
This means that the doubts have been dispelled.
She laughed hoarsely a few times, looked at Mo Zhi with piercing eyes, and said in Hesse's "Mandarin" with a curry flavor:
“I’m really surprised that the head of the Federo family is so keen.”
"What kind of wine do you like?"
"Be brave. No." Mu Zhi blurted out habitually based on the memory of playing string in his previous life, and quickly changed his words:
“Martini!”
The snake girl frowned, but was not overly suspicious, and looked at Arturo again.
Arturo said hastily: "Ai Ku."
The "Water Snake" shook the bell on his side, and a shirtless man pushed the door in, bowing his head respectfully and waiting for orders.
"Martini, mugwort, and my Southern whiskey."
The shirtless man nodded, passed Mozhi and Arturo with a bad expression, and turned around to go out.
Mu Zhi smiled and said "thank you", folded his hands under the table, and lightly clasped the mechanical watch with his fingers.
Under the premise that the "hidden" brooch is on, even if "communication" is used, there will be no source of symbols fluctuating. As long as the other party cannot see the movements of his hands, there will be no problem.
【Uncle Cat, have you entered the bar?】
Cat: [The corridor door of your box.]
Unpredictable: [A man went out, shirtless]
Cat:【Received.】
Unpredictable's fingers were tapping and reading rapidly, but his face did not move at all, and he was talking to the "Water Snake".
"Water Snake" said lightly: "Actually, whiskey, a noble liquor, is produced in the southern provinces. But most people don't admit this fact and think that whiskey was created by Europeans."
"This stems from discrimination against the Hesse people."
Unpredictable nodded, not commenting on this. It was not appropriate for the region to be black.
"Water Snake" chatted for a few more words, focused his attention on Mo Zhi again, and returned the topic to business:
"Mr. Federo, according to your analysis, our southern province wants to cooperate with you."
"I'm also looking forward to this. I'm a businessman and I won't refuse the wealth brought by my customers." Mo Zhi nodded immediately, pretending to be thoughtful and said:
"It's just that, as I have said about the current situation, under the pressure of the two agencies, Lei Mingden has been miserable and cannot produce normally. Moreover, without the assistance of Pence Rodman and Xinglong Villa, everything from production to transportation
All are problems."
"I'm very confused about this. What kind of cooperation do you mean? Or can the Southern Province help overcome these difficulties?"
This is a question that I have always wondered about. The other party immediately decided to interview me. Is there a way to bring the "smuggling business" back to life?
"Hehehe" Hearing this, the water snake laughed dryly again. She held the wine glass and asked slowly and meaningfully:
"I wonder what Mr. Federo thinks of the southern provinces?"
This question is very unpredictable and does not seem to have any necessary connection with the topic.
He paused, and after a while of rapid thinking, he chose to follow the script and summarize the public's general views on the southern province one by one. At least he would not make any mistakes:
"The southern province is rich in water resources and dense forests. It is a rare treasure land. The products are particularly rich and the agriculture is quite developed, but the industrial development is relatively backward."
"By the way, there are also mineral resources. The mineral resources of the southern provinces and northern provinces are the consensus of the entire continent!"
Having said this, Mo Zhi's heart suddenly shook, and he seemed to have grasped what the other party wanted to express.
He frowned for a moment, stared at the "water snake" woman in front of him with incredible eyes, and asked in surprise: "The cooperation you are talking about is not to continue to secretly purchase guns, but to be interested in Lei Mingden?"
"Hahaha."
"Water Snake" laughed when he heard this and said: "Mr. Federo is really sharp! This is what I mean."
Damn it! Why didn’t I think of this before? It suddenly dawned on me.
Under the current situation, it is difficult for Lei Mingden to "resurrection". Even with the help of the Southern Tribe, this result cannot be changed - the Southern Tribe is like a secret organization in Hot Spring City, and cannot appear in the sun at all, let alone
There may be power to check and balance the two agencies, thereby supporting Lei Mingdeng.
The other party actually wanted to transfer the entire Lei Mingden to the Southern Province through Wells Federo, or in other words, let Lei Mingden go to the Southern Province to build a factory.
Being subject to various restrictions from the two agencies in Hot Spring City, we simply stopped struggling to survive here and directly transferred the factory to the territory of the Southern Tribe - in the Southern Province, the Southern Tribe has the final say, as long as we build it there
The factory's production line and various resources will inevitably be tilted accordingly. By then, you can produce as many weapons as you want, and you will no longer have to worry about Pandora and the federal government.
Moreover, the Southern Province is a large ore province with unique conditions. As for how to transfer the entire factory, although the conventional method will also be blocked by the two agencies, we can try to transfer it through various contract capabilities. In short, although this road is difficult, once it is done
It will be of great benefit to the weapons manufacturing in the southern provinces.
This information is very important! Mobi took a deep breath and pondered for a long time. Not only was he surprised by the "Water Snake"'s "cooperation" idea, but he also wanted to think about how to deal with it next.
Mo Cai pondered and asked: "But even if the factory can be moved, I still have to find a way. Can I convince my workers to go to the southern provinces with them? After all, the southern provinces may not necessarily have qualified skilled workers."
"Water Snake" said calmly:
"The transfer of factory equipment can be left to me, you don't have to worry. You only need to do the work of the workers. We can negotiate a suitable price, a price that they cannot refuse even if they are far away from home. I will pay for it
out."
"Water Snake" smiled again: "As long as there is a high salary, isn't it easier to move people? It's easier than moving large equipment in the factory, right? As long as they want to go."
Unpredictable tried to put himself into the role of Wells Federo and imagine how he would make a decision if he faced this current request. He nodded, but then shook his head:
"Ma'am, I have two concerns."
Just then, there was a knock on the heavy wooden door.
"Enter!"
shouted the water snake.
The shirtless man just entered the door with a tray, placed three glasses of wine in front of the three of them one after another, then bowed deeply to the "Water Snake" and said in a very respectful tone:
"My beloved saint, the wine you requested has arrived. If there are no other requirements, I am waiting for your gift."
The saint was stunned when she heard this title.
Also, this kind of respectful tone from the second grade can only be heard in costume TV dramas, um, movies similar to Wu Zetian or Queen Mother Xuan——
It seems that the "water snake" in front of me is the queen of this group of men.
"Get out of here!"
The "Water Snake" immediately waved his hand and drove the man out. He seemed to be accustomed to this kind of respect.
Let me ask you, what the hell is a saint?
Unpredictable Quick Pan Heng. There are four major sacrifices at the top of the Southern Tribe. It is said that they are all at the semi-spiritual level. They are so mysterious that they are not even on the "Hidden List". Is this "Saint Girl" also an important figure in the Southern Tribe?
figure?
Unpredictable felt that he had to re-examine the identity of the other party.
"Water Snake" stretched out his hand as a gesture of invitation, then picked up the wine glass and signaled:
"Wish we can co-operate well!"
It seems that it has been concluded that Wells Federo will definitely agree to cooperate.
Mo Zhi was noncommittal and took a sip with the other person. Arturo also joined the two of them and drank half a cup, although no one paid any attention to him.
"Water Snake" then said:
"Mr. Federo, I can try to guess the two worries you mentioned."
"First, if you cooperate with us and move the factory to the southern provinces, what benefits will you, or the Federo family, get?"
"This is obvious, of course it is profit! Lei Mingden is still yours, our southern tribe is not interested in getting involved in your profits, we only want a large number of firearms and artillery, understand? Of course, I hope you are making enough profits.
Under the circumstances, we can do our best to serve the southern province and promote the weapons manufacturing industry in the southern province."
"You can imagine that as long as Lei Mingdeng is transferred to the southern province, you will have endless orders. Isn't this enough?"
"If you are worried, we can then draw up the prices of various raw materials in detail, as well as the prices of finished products produced by your factory, calculate the profits on paper, and write them into the contract."
Raw materials are provided by the southern provinces, with fixed prices, and the prices of finished products are also guaranteed. The conditions of the southern tribe are quite favorable, giving Lei Mingden and Wells enough protection.
This is so damn tempting. Even if Wells Federo himself was here, he probably wouldn't be able to refuse such a generous offer and would agree immediately. Mo Zhi thought to himself.
The snake girl picked up the wine glass and took another deep sip:
"Second, you are worried that I do not have enough voice and the promises I make cannot represent the entire southern province, right?"
Unpredictable nodded. This is exactly what the Welsh character he played should be worried about - the identity of the other party has not yet been determined. Although the terms offered by the other party are generous, if he is just a scumbag from the southern tribe, why should he?
Promise to Lei Mingden on behalf of the southern province?
Don’t find out later that the other party is just a low-level person, and the southern province will not recognize the promise made at this time.
"Water Snake" obviously guessed "Wells"'s worries along the way, and actually explained them one by one. She put the empty wine glass on the table and said in a hoarse voice:
"You can rest assured about this. You heard it just now."
"I am a saint from the Southern Tribe! I walk the world for the four great sacrifices. What I mean is what the Southern Tribe means!"
"Excuse me!" Mo Zhi pursed his lips, restrained the panic in his heart, and asked hesitantly:
"I know very little about the situation in the southern provinces, please forgive me for my worries."
If the saint is as described by "Water Snake", the saint's status is very high. She is probably the first person in the southern tribe below the four high priests!
What's more important is that most of the senior figures in such a secret organization are high-level contractors.
At least the level is much higher than mine. Even if he doesn't reach the semi-spirit level, he will probably be around the yellow level.
But now, he is plotting against a contractor who is more powerful than himself, and it feels a bit like seeking death. Who would have thought that the "water snake" on the other side of the connection is actually a saint!
At this moment, Arturo, who had been afraid to speak next to him, suddenly put his hand on his forehead and retched several times in his throat:
"Why do I feel a little dizzy!"
Thanks to [Worst Wine] for the tip again, and also thanks to [Naked in Bloom] for the 500 tip.
Thanks to [Xia Kongji], [Haolei] and [The Worst Wine] for their monthly votes.
I've been very busy these days. I'm helping my wife plan a new store. She has to do everything from contracts to industrial and commercial registration to decoration design. It's delayed a lot of coding time and the decoration will start in two days. Because it's a shopping mall, we can only do it at night.
When we enter the construction site after nine o'clock, I have to accompany him. After all, we can't let my wife stay up all night by herself to guard the site. She doesn't understand.
However, I will still work hard to code the words and will not stop updating. You can rest assured that I will post as much as possible.
