In the living room of the villa, the woman screamed twice, gasping for air at the same time. She grabbed the paper towel on the coffee table and wiped away the tears and saliva. A flash of fear quickly flashed in her eyes. Just now she really thought she was
Her neck was about to be pinched, and the overwhelming force made her tremble.
Chu Fenglong sat on the sofa with a pale face, gritting his teeth. He couldn't believe this fact. The woman next to him was almost killed by Xue Chen. Who was she? Ji Xiaohuan was also one of the eight red sticks in Hongmen Grand Hall.
A poisonous hand can easily take away a person's life, which makes people frightened. However, when he struck first, he actually missed and did not knock Xue Chen to the ground. Instead, his neck was almost broken!
This was also the last move he planned to make Xue Chen succumb to the poison. He even thought more deeply. Even if he left Zongye, it couldn't be over. He would not completely expose the poison, but leave a part of it.
, can be used as coercion to get more.
But the plan couldn't keep up with the changes, and all the calculations came to nothing.
Xue Chen, who was standing by the coffee table, glanced at the two people in front of him, and finally looked at the woman, and said in a cold and calm tone: "Your poison is very powerful, but unfortunately, you can't do anything to me."
Ji Xiaohuan's eyes flinched, and he gritted his teeth: "Not necessarily! I was just careless. If I used the strongest poison, you might not be able to be fine!"
Xue Chen was noncommittal. Even if this woman could really release a stronger poison, as long as he was careful and could use his control ability to subdue her from a hundred meters away, she would not have a chance to use poison!
When Xue Chen walked to the door of the villa, Chu Fenglong stopped him: "Wait, we can talk again."
Standing at the door, Xue Chen turned around and said: "There are ten stores, there is nothing to talk about."
"No, ten is too many, at most... five is too many!"
Seeing Xue Chen, he didn't say anything.
Chu Fenglong had a gloomy face and said angrily: "Seven! This is the limit!"
"Seven..." Xue Chen touched his chin, "Okay, just seven stores."
"When will they be released?" Chu Fenglong's face was ashen.
"I have to go out for a trip recently. It may be as short as three to five days, or as long as ten days and a month. When I come back, I will ask them to let Zongye go. At that time, I will also personally take over the seven stores.
.”
Chu Fenglong looked dissatisfied when he heard that it would take so long.
"This is good for you, because I am doing a very dangerous thing. If I don't come back, you don't have to pay for seven stores, and you can take Zong Ye away, killing two birds with one stone, isn't it?"
"Well..." Seeing Xue Chen say this, Chu Fenglong's heart moved. He thought about it and nodded and said yes. It would also be better to let Zong Ye stay in there for a longer period of time to kill his violent temper and make him calmer in the future.
.
Of course, if people really can't come back, it's really God's will. Not only can they not have to pay the price of seven stores, but they can also bring Zongye out, which is perfect.
Seeing Xue Chen leave, Chu Fenglong put his hand on his forehead and let out a long sigh. He never thought that it would be such a situation, that seven stores would actually be blackmailed.
Ji Xiaohuan, who was sitting next to her, was also silent and had a very ugly face. She looked at Xue Chen's back as she walked out, gritting her teeth and her eyes filled with hatred. After she accidentally gained the ability to poison, she never looked back.
He suffered so much humiliation that he almost had his neck broken and died.
"He will definitely not come back alive." Ji Xiaohuan cursed.
"I hope so." Chu Fenglong pinched his eyebrows. Now he really couldn't understand this young man at all. What kind of abilities and strength did this young man have? Naturally, he also hoped that he would never come back, but he had no confidence at all.
, two of the Eight Great Red Sticks, one was lying in the hospital, and the other had his neck almost broken. Although these two were both in the middle and lower reaches of the Eight Great Red Sticks, their defeat was too complete.
Xue Chen walked out of Longjing Villa and got into a car parked outside. Wu Yue, who was sitting in the driver's seat, glanced at his watch and said, "Not bad, only thirty-five minutes have passed. How was the conversation?"
?”
"Fortunately, I want seven stores in Shengshi Antique Store." Xue Chen said.
"Oh." Wu Yue opened his eyes wide, "Seven stores? You really dare to speak, and Chu Fenglong agreed?"
"Well, I will take it in when I finish processing it. I will release Zong Ye at that time, no problem." Xue Chen asked.
"No problem." Wu Yue really didn't expect that what Xue Chen called was actually the stores of Shengshi Antique Store, and there were seven of them, which was one-third.
Shengshi Antique Store is one of the industries of Hongmen Dagongtang. It has been developed for ten years. After spending a lot of money and energy, it has only opened about 20 stores. It is also preparing to go public in the next three to five years. Now
Having seven houses taken away directly can be said to be a serious injury.
He was also curious about what happened in the thirty-five minutes just now. It was really unbelievable that Chu Fenglong would agree to such harsh conditions, and he couldn't figure it out.
The car drove to Chang'an Street, turned into a courtyard, entered the building and came to an office.
After a middle-aged man wearing glasses came in, Wu Yue stood up and nodded before going out. As a result, there were only two people left in the room.
"Mr. Xue, I am responsible for explaining this task to you."
"Please tell me." Xue Chen nodded and listened carefully. He was going to a chaotic place like Syria, so he didn't dare to be careless.
Now that we have reached this point, there is nothing to think about. All we can do is complete the matter as soon as possible, and then completely take over the seven stores.
The man glanced at Xue Chen, opened a folder in his hand, and began to speak: "The country we need to go to is Syria, and there is only one purpose, which is to bring the downed US military drone back to the country. According to the frontier investigation
, the drone is now in the hands of an opposition armed group called the Free Army, which is stationed near Mount Sheikh in southwest Syria to fight guerrillas..."
It has been two years since the drone crashed. Naturally, the US military has been looking for it, but has not found it. Only recently did the news come out that it was taken away by this armed force. Now this armed force has secretly released some information. Want to
Sell the hidden drones to get some funds to buy weapons and ammunition.
The price of the drone is naturally not low, a full 10 million US dollars, and it must be in cash!
There are so many countries and organizations that want to get this technologically advanced drone, and they all want to learn the cutting-edge technology above, and the price of 10 million US dollars is not enough for a state-of-the-art drone.
Not high, even if it's damaged.
However, how to bring 10 million US dollars to Syria without attracting attention is not easy. After all, this kind of transaction cannot be made public and must be carried out in private.
Moreover, after buying a drone, how to bring it back is another problem. In a war-torn country like Syria, which attracts worldwide attention, it is not an easy task to take away a drone.
"Mr. Xue, if you buy it, you can bring it back, right?" The man pushed up his glasses and asked.
"How big?"
"Well, this drone is much smaller in size than the famous Global Hawk. The unfolded wings are about ten meters long and the fuselage is about eight meters. Of course, the main thing is to control the system engine. If there is an emergency, you can
Get rid of most of the fuselage."
"Oh, I understand." Xue Chen nodded.
Seeing that Xue Chen didn't say he couldn't, the man continued.
"This time there will be another comrade traveling with you to take care of each other. Your identities also need to be disguised. Your identities are frontline reporters from our CCTV and you are going to Syria to do news investigation work..."
"Wait, you mean, instead of me going alone, there is someone following me?" Xue Chen asked hurriedly.
"Yes, because we understand that Mr. Xue, you have never been to the country of Syria and must be very unfamiliar with the environment. The comrade we appointed knows Syria very well. He has been there many times and is very thorough about the details of the mission that needs to be carried out.
My understanding can help you.”
At this time, there was a knock on the door.
When the door was pushed open, Xue Chen saw a short-haired woman standing in front of the door, wearing a camouflage military uniform. She saluted the man with glasses, and then turned her eyes to him.
"That's her?" Xue Chen rubbed his nose.
"Let me introduce to you, this is Comrade Wu Chunying who will be traveling with you." The man with glasses invited the woman to sit down, and then said, "You two can get to know each other first. I'll go out for a while and I'll be back soon."
The man with glasses went out, and Xue Chen and the woman named Wu Chunying were left in the room.
Xue Chen took a look at this woman. She was about thirty years old, with short ear-length hair. She had an above-average appearance, very white skin, very dark eyebrows, slightly upturned eyes, and tight lips, which showed that this woman had a very determined character.
"Hello, Mr. Xue, I have been ordered by the organization to accompany you to Syria to assist in completing this mission. My main responsibility is to contact and communicate with the local Free Army, complete the transaction, and protect your personal safety.
.”
"Protect me?" Xue Chenren did need help with the previous responsibilities. Otherwise, when he arrived in Syria, his eyesight dimmed. Where would he find the opposition Free Army? But when he heard that he was being protected, he chuckled.
.
Wu Chunying saw Xue Chen laughing disapprovingly. Although she didn't say anything, her eyebrows moved slightly.
"There is no need to protect my safety, you just need to protect yourself." Xue Chen smiled and said.
"No, this is a task assigned to me by the organization, and I must carry it out seriously." Wu Chunying refused without hesitation.
Looking at this somewhat stubborn and rigid woman, Xue Chen smiled and shook his head without saying anything else. If he was really in danger, it was not certain who would protect whom. (To be continued)
