Chapter 761: Difficult to Pass the Love Trial

~9 min read 1,655 words

He Yuzhu hung up on Secretary Liu and leaned back against the sofa, calculating rapidly in his mind.

Let Wang Qiaozhi and Zhou Kai disappear? That would be too easy. But if he did that, he felt it would be a loss.

M Country would certainly investigate privately, and in the end, they would most likely find out that a young man who exchanged foreign currency had been in contact with Mark and Wayne. Following this trail, it was nine times out of ten that Mark and Wayne were eliminated by this young man.

This was only the most basic logic; thinking a layer deeper, the other side would easily suspect that the National Security Bureau had made a move. They would naturally suspect that Wang Qiaozhi and Zhou Kai had defected, and once confirmed, they would inevitably kill the two of them.

In that case, these two still had utility value; he could just take the opportunity to eliminate those who wanted to target them.

He Yuzhu lit a cigarette, took a deep drag, and had already made a decision in his heart: if this group of people still didn't know what was good for them and insisted on walking into the line of fire, he would make a trip himself, go to their country, and blow all those Chip Factories flat.

If you yourselves are blind, don't blame me for not following the rules.

In this life, since he had this ability, why should he blindly endure?

At the same moment, inside a hilltop villa on Taiping Mountain in Hong Kong, the night was thick.

The sea breeze passed through the half-open terrace door, blowing the curtains in the study.

Hopkins sat behind a large desk, pinching a cigar between his fingertips, his expression terrifyingly gloomy. Elizabeth stood in front of the desk, dressed in a sharply tailored black suit skirt, reporting the situation of this operation to him: "... Mark and Wayne were very likely killed by a young man who exchanged foreign currency with them..."

Hopkins stood up abruptly and cursed angrily: "If they really threw themselves away for the sake of that little profit from foreign currency, it is simply unforgivable! How much effort did I spend training them? Was it for them to do such trivial things?"

Elizabeth lowered her eyes and said in a low voice: "Boss, do you think... could it be that the people from the National Security Bureau over there captured them?"

"It is not impossible." Hopkins nodded, "In any case, we must continue to contact Wang Qiaozhi and Zhou Kai. Once it is confirmed that they have defected, eliminate them immediately, otherwise our plan will be completely exposed—no, perhaps it has already been exposed!"

Elizabeth rolled her eyes and suggested: "Boss, since that is the case, why don't we just blow up that secret factory directly? Why go through so much trouble?"

Hopkins was quite satisfied with Elizabeth's reaction: "Good, you send a few more people over this time and blow that factory completely flat for me."

Elizabeth bit her lower lip subconsciously: "Boss, it is very difficult to transport Explosive and weapons in; the control over there is really too strict."

Hopkins waved his hand: "You don't need to worry about this. I have a channel, using the route of Taiwanese businessmen to smuggle the goods in." As he spoke, he took a slip of paper from the drawer and pushed it over, "This batch of goods will arrive at the coast of Guangdong Province by Fishing Boat from Kaohsiung, and then transfer to land transport to enter Beijing. You just need to be responsible for the reception."

Elizabeth took the slip of paper and asked again: "Then who should be sent to command this time? It is best to have someone who is familiar with Beijing and has yellow skin."

Hopkins leaned back in his chair, pondered for a moment, and said: "Hmm, you are right. I think Lin Qingjie is very suitable; he is over fifty, has a kind face, and looks like a legitimate businessman."

Elizabeth nodded, her tense shoulders relaxing slightly: "Good, I will listen to you."

Ever since the brothers Liu Guangtian and Liu Guangfu started the business of reselling women's stockings and underwear, their lives had suddenly become prosperous.

The two boxes of goods they got from Cui Yongli last time were all sold out in less than a week.

When they calculated the accounts, they made a net profit of three thousand yuan; when the brothers were counting the money, Liu Guangfu's hands were shaking.

Immediately after, they got another six boxes from Cui Yongli, and the sales were even faster than last time.

In just two short months, the two of them had actually saved up twenty thousand yuan.

In the evening, as it grew dark, the smell of cooking oil drifted from every household in the hutong.

Liu Guangfu pushed his bicycle with a flat rear tire into the courtyard and shouted into the house: "Brother, I think we should buy a flatbed tricycle; my broken bike only pulled two boxes of goods and the tire burst."

Liu Guangtian helped Liu Guangfu move the boxes into the house, walked out, looked at the '28-inch' bicycle, and said: "I actually want to wait until we earn enough money to buy a Jeep. Just that kind of green BJ212, it only costs thirty thousand plus."

When Liu Guangfu heard this, his eyes instantly widened into circles: "Brother, what are we waiting for? We have twenty thousand on hand, take a bit of your savings, and wouldn't that be enough?"

Liu Guangtian glared at him: "Get lost! My savings are kept for emergencies! They can only be used when something big happens; things for enjoyment can only be bought with money earned by oneself."

Liu Guangfu shrank his neck after being scolded and muttered: "I was just saying... Brother, don't be angry."

"How did Cui Yongli settle the account with you this time?"

"He raised the price by two hundred yuan per box, saying this batch of goods is different from the previous ones." Liu Guangfu replied.

"I knew this bastard would pull this trick, I didn't expect him to raise it so fast." Liu Guangtian was full of displeasure.

Liu Guangfu sighed: "But if we don't get goods from him, where else can we get them?"

Liu Guangtian pondered for a moment and said: "I plan to go to Guangdong Province to take a look after a while; if there is a chance, we will resell the goods ourselves."

"Brother, Boss Cui opened a bar in Sanlitun, it opens this week, and he invited us to go over and sit for a while. It's a kind gesture, it wouldn't be good to refuse, right?"

Liu Guangtian rubbed his temples, looking exhausted: "When?"

"The day after tomorrow."

"You go, I'm too tired. Nowadays, it's customary to send flower baskets for openings; you buy one and take it over."

Liu Guangfu said happily: "Brother, let's hurry up and buy a Jeep; it'll be so prestigious to drive it out."

Liu Guangtian glared: "If we really buy a car, Xu Damao might just drive it away directly; we still owe him seventy thousand!"

When Liu Guangfu heard this, his face instantly darkened.

Three days later, Cui Yongli's bar in Sanlitun officially opened.

Liu Guangfu rushed over at four in the afternoon and even specially bought a large flower basket to present.

Cui Yongli was very enthusiastic and welcomed Liu Guangfu into the bar.

At this time, it was not yet officially open for business, but there was already a pretty girl inside practicing singing.

The girl singing had a melon-seed face, permed curly hair, big eyes, long eyelashes, and two dimples when she smiled; she was very pleasant to look at. Especially her two long legs and that shiny skirt, which made Liu Guangfu unable to look away.

Liu Guangfu did not listen to Liu Guangtian's words to leave after delivering the flower basket, but stayed until the bar was about to close.

It was mainly because the girl's singing voice was truly too beautiful; every sentence seemed to be sung for him, stirring his heart.

Cui Yongli naturally saw through his thoughts. At nine in the evening, he called Liu Guangfu to the side: "Brother, can you do me a favor?"

Liu Guangfu nodded quickly: "Cui Ge, just say it if you have something!"

Cui Yongli glanced at the girl singing: "It's too late, the place where she lives is on your way; could you trouble yourself to take her home?"

Liu Guangfu was overjoyed and agreed without hesitation: "Brother, no problem, leave it to me!"

Along the way, Liu Guangfu rode his bike with his back straight.

After riding two kilometers, he still hadn't found a suitable topic, so the girl spoke first: "Brother, what is your name?"

"My name is Liu Guangfu, miss, what is your surname?"

The girl smiled: "My name is Chen Xiaolin, you can just call me Xiaolin. Brother Guangfu, what do you do, and how do you know Boss Cui?"

Liu Guangfu quickly introduced himself: "I do clothing wholesale."

Chen Xiaolin said with some envy: "Brother Liu Guangfu, do you self-employed individuals make a lot of money?"

Liu Guangfu was quite proud: "I won't hide it from you, when luck is good, I can earn five hundred yuan in a single day."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaolin exclaimed in surprise: "That's too profitable, we only make twenty-five yuan a day singing, it's far behind compared to you."

Liu Guangfu struck while the iron was hot: "Little sister, if you are willing, you can come sell clothes with us; it earns much more than singing."

Chen Xiaolin smiled: "Forget it, I only have free time in the evening, I still have to go to work at the Literary and Art Troupe during the day."
