Chapter 1268: More Money

Chapter 1268: More Money

In a desert in East Africa, there was an abandoned military base at the border of a country.

Since the army stationed here had left, the small village living near the military base was completely deserted. There were now only a few dry wells and gray-yellow tiles left.

Because the nearby terrain was not convenient for armed defense, no equipment had been left behind. The entire place was deserted.

However, on this unusual day, the deserted military base was welcoming a group of uninvited guests…

Toyota pickup trucks passed through abandoned checkpoints and came to the inside of the military base. A group of African soldiers armed with AKs jumped out of the cars.

In the abandoned hangar, several mercenaries wearing American-made equipment stood next to the Hummer. They immediately involuntarily put their index fingers on their weapons.

Marach had a thick beard on his face. He walked forward with some men. He didn’t seem to care about the weapons in the hands of the mercenaries. He walked straight to the man in a suit in front of the crowd and stopped.

“Where’s the stuff?”

The man in the suit smiled slightly. He looked at the abandoned hangar behind him and said, “It’s behind me… Let our guests see it.”

The hangar door was opened.

The abandoned hangar was filled with large green army boxes.

The boxes closest to the door were open, and they were displaying orange ammunition and bundles of weapons. There were also pieces of military equipment leaning on the side of the boxes.

A trace of greed flashed in Marach’s eyes.

As a famous warlord in the neighborhood, although he might seem like a bada*s, in fact, his life was quite intense. The expensive diamond mines and oil fields were controlled by the ZF army. They did not dare to get involved with them.

Normally, his biggest source of income was nothing more than commanding yachts to rob fishing boats. He looked for family members of the hostages and blackmailed them. As for those cargo ships escorted by warships, he didn’t dare to touch them either. After all, no one wanted to risk being shot at.

According to his estimation, the value of the arms in this hangar alone was worth at least 10 million US dollars.

The price of transport to East Africa was at least double that.

The arms in the hangar in front of him looked like a treasure chest. He didn’t pay attention to the armed soldiers.

This was his territory.

If necessary, he could start a guerrilla warfare.

However, he still wanted to listen to what these people had to say, to decide whether to cooperate with them or to destroy them.

“This is worth twenty million dollars.” The man in the suit reminded him of the actual value of the goods as he reached out and handed him a cigar. “This is Guba’s best cigar.”

He lit the cigar.

Marach rudely blew out a smoke ring. His eyes narrowed while looking at the hangar.

“This is it?”

“It’s just an advance payment.” The man in a suit said with a smile, “There will be goods worth about 80 million dollars in the future. I believe you will be interested.”

Marach calmed down after hearing that this was an advanced payment.

Of course, this was not because of professional ethics; it was purely for his own interests.

“Sounds great… How did you get these things here?”

The man in the suit smiled and said, “We have a large transport plane, and we have guys at customs. You don’t need to worry about this. We can even give the C-130 for you.”

When Marach heard the C-130, his face changed.

What did a transport plane mean?

It meant that he could transport goods to farther places. Whether it was arms or necessities, he could even step away from the pirate business and start a business as an arms dealer.

There were many invisible business opportunities in this desert.

As for the pilot…

This could be a problem, but it could be solved with money.

“What do you want? Attack an oil tanker? Which oil field?” Marach said as he licked his lips.

Marach was obviously interested. The man in the suit just smiled without saying a word. He took out a newspaper from his bag and threw it at him.

The newspaper was from BBC.

Marach looked at the cruise ship on the cover page and had a careless expression on his face.

However, when he looked at the lines of text, a serious look gradually appeared in his eyes.

His solemnity turned into anger.

“What’s the difference between this and suicide?” He threw the newspaper on the ground. Marach looked at the man in the suit angrily, “Are you joking?!”

Attacking the royal family’s cruise ship.

A cruise ship carrying important people from other countries!

This was a war!

Even though he was greedy, he was not stupid!

The mercenaries standing nearby immediately held their weapons tightly. The militants who followed the bearded man took the same action.

The atmosphere in front of the hangar suddenly became tense.

Faced with the murderous sight of the warlord, the expression on the man in the suit did not change. The man spoke softly.

“Yes, it is suicide.

“The people who attack the cruise ship will definitely die. But before they die, I need you to make them kill a person on the ship.”

Marach’s eyes narrowed.

It seemed like he was weighing the pros and cons in his mind. After a while, he asked, “Who?”

“I have sent his information to your email.”

Perhaps his greed prevailed, or perhaps he thought of a sure-fire way to ensure that no one would know that this matter was related to him, Marach slowly said, “I cannot guarantee the safety of other passengers on the cruise ship.”

“You don’t have to guarantee it.” The man in the suit smiled and said in a pleasant tone, “Whether the ship is exploded or covered up as an accident, it’s all up to you. As long as you confirm that the target is dead, you will receive the rest.

“So, what do you choose?”

Marach was silent for a while again.

Suddenly, he spoke.

“After this, I may have to keep a low profile for a while.”

The man in the suit smiled.

“A wise choice, that would be the best.”

“I haven’t finished talking yet.”

Marach took off the cigar from his mouth. As if he had finally made up his mind, he had a fierce look in his eyes.

“The arms payment is not enough.

“I want more money.”

…

Ever since the completion of the controllable fusion project, Lu Zhou had become a target in the eyes of politicians from all over the world.

There was only one reason.

As the inventor of controllable fusion, a shareholder of East Asia Energy, and the head of countless Chinese scientific research organizations, his status was no longer just a scholar. He was someone who could influence the decision-making of a country.

In the field of nuclear fusion, his word was the bible.

This power can determine the future of a country for the next half of the century.

As one of the five Nordic countries, Sweden had always hoped to be the first to negotiate a controllable fusion reactor project with China. This nuclear power plant would dominate the Nordic grid.

They had offered many preferential conditions, such as allowing Chinese enterprises to intervene in public facilities projects and allowing the extradition of wanted criminals, etc…

The fusion reactor core was wanted by countries all over the world.

Therefore, this voyage to Copenhagen was somewhat diplomatic.

Not only was the Sweden royal family on board, but there were also many Nordic entrepreneurs and rich people on the cruise ship “Aurora Borealis”, along with entrepreneurs and diplomats from China.

Both sides hoped to develop economic and trade cooperations with each other. They wanted more cooperation opportunities and markets for their countries.

Princess Lilia stood next to her father, Prince Frederick. She kept making faces at Lu Zhou when her father was not paying attention.

The little girl seemed to be angry about what happened at the banquet the other day.

However, Lu Zhou wasn’t worried. He just smiled at her. The little princess stomped her feet angrily and turned her head, completely ignoring him.

Lu Zhou didn’t care.

Standing on the deck of the ship, he looked up at the distant sea and sky.

As he looked at the waves, he felt as if something was going to happen.

“The wind on the deck is strong.”

Wang Peng spoke.

“I feel like you’re in a good mood.”

“I am?”

Wang Peng nodded and spoke seriously.

“Much better than usual.”

Lu Zhou heard this and smiled awkwardly.

I didn’t expect it to be this obvious.

He admitted that he was in a really good mood these days. In fact, he was almost ecstatic.

As Wang Peng looked at the brilliant smile on Lu Zhou’s face, he didn’t know what to say, so he chose to remain silent.

However, Lu Zhou’s smile did not last for long.

Because the alarm suddenly went off…
