Chapter 504 Cons
In fact, Hua Yan's original intention was not to start a fire; they were there to do business, not to fight. They would only act if the other party was indeed committing robbery.
The first person to open the car door was shot in the right hand, and suddenly gunfire erupted as both sides opened fire.
Hua Yan and the others remained hidden and had cover, so the bullets didn't hit them.
However, the attackers fared poorly; they were hit in the hands or legs, but none died. This was because Hua Yan had instructed that even in robbery, one should not harm the attackers unless absolutely necessary.
The attackers' cries of agony continued, but Hua Yan and the others did not come out until finally, when the gunfire ceased.
"Excuse me, sir, what do you want?"
Hua Yan spoke to the boss in fluent Japanese.
By the firelight, Hua Yan could see that this was a man with the distinctive features of the R country, with sword-like eyebrows and eagle eyes. He was around thirty years old and had a serious and ruthless expression. Even though his hand was injured, his aura was not weakened at all.
Apart from Hua Yan, no one else showed up, as Hua Yan had instructed beforehand.
"Are all these cars yours?"
Seeing such a young girl as Hua Yan, the uncle found it somewhat unbelievable. However, he was a worldly man and did not show any disdain.
"Hmm! Is there a problem?"
What are you pulling?
"Some goods that are to be sold to Country R."
Hua Yan didn't hide anything and told the truth.
"Have you heard of Cons? Anyone who knows about R country knows about it."
The eldest brother said with a touch of arrogance.
"We don't know. All we know about R country is its economy and trade; we don't know anything else."
"Forty percent of R country's economy is controlled by us, Cons. Without Cons's permission, nothing from outside can even think about entering R country."
The boss's tone exuded domineering power.
"How can I get your permission?"
Hua Yan really didn't understand these things. If she would be frequently traveling along this route in the future, she didn't want to resort to violence if the issue could be resolved peacefully.
"We want 10% of your goods."
"Then what can you do for us?"
"We will not stop you from entering."
"that's it?"
"What else do you want?"
"Will we be able to enter R country without any obstacles afterward, or are you just one of many forces that are not blocking our way, but there's no guarantee that other forces won't block us?"
Hua Yan asked this because she wanted to know more details.
“Once we give our permission, no one will stop you.”
How can we verify what you're saying?
"I will give you a pass, and anyone who tries to stop you will be allowed to pass once they see this pass."
The uncle said in a very serious tone.
"Why should I believe you? This is our first time in R country."
Hua Yan's concerns are understandable.
The uncle seemed stumped by the question.
"I want to see your leader and talk to him about cooperation."
In her previous life, Hua Yan also traded with R country, but that was twenty or thirty years later, and the social situation was completely different from now.
She now dispatches intelligence gatherers around the world, inevitably dealing with these dark forces. If she could have a cooperative organization like in Country J, it would save her a lot of trouble.
Haha! This uncle was completely dumbfounded. This girl is overestimating herself. She doesn't even know who Constance is, yet she wants to meet the person in charge. That's a bit arrogant.
"Tell me what kind of cooperation you'd like to discuss first, and then I'll introduce you to someone."
Instead of refusing immediately, the older man asked a very cunning question.
"Hehe! I can only talk about this cooperation with the person in charge. It's too confidential for just anyone to know."
Tell me about your organizational structure first, then I'll see who I should talk to about this.
Hua Yan was absolutely right; these dark organizations have a very strict hierarchy.
The older man was speechless. How dare this young girl say such arrogant things? However, everyone on their side was already wounded. If the fighting continued, they didn't know if anyone would die, but there was certainly no hope of victory. Judging by the marksmanship of these people, it wasn't that they couldn't kill them, but rather that they were holding back.
They originally came here alone, hoping to make some extra money and give their men some perks, but they didn't expect to be subdued. They thought they could use Constance's name to intimidate them, but the other side had never even heard of him. They thought they couldn't keep it all for themselves, so they were willing to take a smaller share, but the other side wouldn't listen and wanted to see the person in charge.
Haha! This uncle named Sergei was somewhat disheartened. He couldn't keep it all for himself, couldn't share the profits, and might even be criticized by the Brotherhood's second-in-command—what bad luck! But he couldn't win a fight either, and if things went wrong, everyone might end up here.
After racking his brains for a while, Sergei concluded that other people's lives were not important, but his own was, and he had no choice but to bow to reality.
“We have many fraternities in Constance, and each fraternity has its own leaders and deputies. The highest leader I can introduce to you right now is a deputy.”
"Hmm! Sure, let's meet this deputy. What's his name?"
"Dmitri".
Sergei answered honestly.
"Fifth, take some men and take their guns. After we deliver the goods, we'll go with them to meet the Brotherhood's second-in-command."
This time, Hua Yan brought out people from the "lower" generation, because they are specifically trained for overseas missions and have experience in foreign combat.
"Yes! Boss."
The girl's loud reply made Sergei realize that she was no ordinary person. Although he was from Japan, he had spent many years on the border between Japan and China and could understand Chinese.
Soon, a group of people appeared from all directions, all carrying weapons.
Xia Wu swiftly and efficiently led his men to confiscate the weapons of the Japanese. In fact, these Japanese soldiers still had bullets in their guns, but they dared not act rashly, fearing that they might lose their lives if things went wrong.
Sergei brought quite a few people, ten in total. If Hua Yan and the others hadn't been so vigilant, they might have really fallen into their trap.
"These are my healing pills. They will stop hurting once you take them."
Hua Yan took out ten pills from her bag and handed them to Sergei.
Sergei hesitated and didn't take it. Seeing this reaction, Hua Yan popped one into her mouth, swallowed it, and then opened her mouth to show Sergei.
In fact, the pill melts in the mouth and doesn't need to be swallowed at all, but in order to show that she had really taken it, Hua Yan had to make such an action.
"Uncle, these pills are very expensive. If it weren't for the fact that we're going to cooperate later, I wouldn't have given them to you at all."
Hua Yan said with a mix of heartache and dissatisfaction.
Seeing that Hua Yan had no reaction after eating it, Sergei took it and let one of his brothers eat one first.
Haha! He's cautious too, afraid that Hua Yan might play tricks and his people would fall victim. Even if they weren't killed, it doesn't mean they can't be poisoned.
He was still skeptical that such a single pill could cure a gunshot wound.
Although these people live a life of constant danger, gunshot wounds are truly painful, and you can't simply be tough enough to stop the pain.
Sergei's subordinate took the pill, hesitated for a moment, and then put it in his mouth. There was no immediate reaction; the pill melted in his mouth, and then he swallowed instinctively.
Everyone watched the man's reaction, and after a moment, he nodded to Sergei.
"Boss, it really doesn't hurt anymore."
Sergei glanced at Hua Yan with a dark and ambiguous look, then distributed the pills to the other brothers.
No one hesitated any longer and put the pills in their mouths. Then they witnessed a miraculous scene: their arms and legs no longer hurt.
Sergei shared the same sentiment, and his gaze toward Hua Yan held a hint of conviction.
