In the days that followed, we stayed at the Zhaowang Hotel. The group of people who left in 1988 seemed very mysterious. The beggar Liu told us that the group of people who left in 1988 seemed very mysterious.
The entrance fee is 200,000 to meet.
I think the other party is a bit snobbish. Our gang has been severely weakened since returning from Hong Kong Island. 200,000 is not a small amount of money.
He shook his head and said, "I won't feel at ease if I'm looking for a backer if they don't want money. Yunfeng, if you think about it this way, it's only tens of thousands of dollars for our lives. It's still worth it. I still have some savings, so I set aside 250,000 yuan, and 20,000 yuan."
After counting the membership fees for our visits, the remaining 50,000 yuan will be used as activity expenses."
In this way, beggar Liu acted as the intermediary. About three days later, we met with the people sent by this group of forces in a hotel.
That day, two middle-aged men wearing blue sky rescue uniforms came and met them alone. I don't know what they talked about in the room. When they left, one of them took away a black plastic bag.
After entering the room, he turned his head and said to me: "They agreed to help us for Mr. Liu's sake. News will be released on the road soon. Changchun will know that we have an intersection with Ms. Zhao, and they will not be looking for us in the short term."
"
I asked in confusion: "Boss, who is that Zhao Qingwan? There is so much energy on the road."
"Ha," Tou smiled and said, "Do you know about the puppet theater in Beijing?"
"The one next to the third ring road of Anzhen Bridge?"
"Yes, that's only a small part of the Zhao family's property. In addition, I asked them to help find out about Xiaohong. They will call me as soon as there is any news."
I was stunned and it took me a long time to come back to my senses.
If so, that person's background is too great...
Let me start by saying that many people may not know about the Puppet Theater, but I believe many people have heard of the name Peace Hotel...
I guessed something, but I didn’t dare to ask. I just had to understand some things in my heart.
My head injury has improved a lot in the past few days, and I can basically get out of the wheelchair and walk. There is one more thing we have to do next.
Buy equipment.
Zhao Xuanxuan is young, so she doesn’t know much about many things. The things we need to buy include cyclone shovels, food, purified water, sleeping bags, flying tiger claws, fishing nets, compasses, and a lot of other things, because the place we are going to is within the Helan Mountains.
, the conditions there are harsh in the desert, and many places are not accessible to traffic, so the boss and I calculated the total and decided to buy a second-hand car with good quality for our own use.
At that time, the second-hand car market was very chaotic. It was a profit-making industry, prices were not transparent, and there were no professional third-party appraisal agencies for second-hand cars. In addition, there were relatively few buyers who really knew how to appraise the condition of the car, so most people who bought it would basically be ripped off.
For example, based on the car penetration rate at that time, the best-selling cars in the northern region were Alto, Tianjin Xiali, Hyundai Sonata, Cherokee (212), and Mitsubishi Cheetah. However, we had many people and carried a lot of things, so we could only buy
After much selection of SUV-style cars, I finally decided to buy a 212 Cherokee from a local second-hand car dealer.
We bought a second-hand Cherokee from a local car dealer surnamed Liu in Handan for 48,000 yuan. The man surnamed Liu vowed: "Brothers, don't worry. Although this 212 is a little broken, it's the biggest
The advantage is that the chassis is solid and the fuel tank is large. I was introduced by acquaintances, so don’t worry, you won’t suffer any loss.”
When buying equipment, Zhao Xuanxuan really wanted to express herself. She kept bargaining with the boss over the price. In the end, the boss was so angry that he blushed and cursed, "Xiao Nizi, you are too outrageous. You are not letting me live."
After settling all this, I called Qin Xingping out for dinner in the evening, and the two parties finalized the general route they would take after departure.
Departing from Handan, proceed to Shanxi, then take the national highway and take the Beijing-Lanzhou Expressway into Yinchuan, from Yinchuan to Danba County. Qin Xingping is familiar with the road conditions, and with him leading the way, we don't have to worry about taking the wrong road.
