Cosma Empire

He didn't panic when a sharp object that made Pete's waist tingle slightly squeezed his skin.

He thinks that his current identity has no flaws, and these people may not come to him because of his past affairs, but more likely because he looks richer.

There will never be a shortage of poor people in this society, those poor people with vague ambitions and desires that do not have any practical meaning.

They can always find many reasons for their poverty, to prove that the root of their poverty is not their own, it is the fault of this society, it is the fault of other rich people, and those rich people don't give him any favor Opportunity to be rich threatens those who are already rich, so they are doomed to be poor.

This sentence is a bit awkward, but it is a good and well-used reason anyway.

Some poor people will talk to others every day in the slums, in the downtown area, on the side of the road or at the door of their homes, how to make a lot of money and what to do if they have money in their plan, they will only say, never Not going to do it, these people are safe.

But there are some people who are as poor as they are, and they also think that the main problem of their poverty is not their own. These people are a little different than the above kind of people, that is, they are really good at becoming rich, such as Talk about taking a risk and doing something illegal.

Anyone who knows a little about the law knows that the most profitable transactions are written into the law, and it is up to those who may have made money through these methods to decide that they can no longer be used and copied by others.

This is very narrow, but it is the foundation of social stability. It is difficult for the first murderer to be convicted, but the second one will definitely be unlucky. This is a construction process from scratch, although in the eyes of some people There may be some problems in this construction process.

These people will realize their desire for wealth through illegal means, such as robbery, smuggling, and human trafficking. Anyway, as long as they can make money, they are willing to do it, even at the risk of breaking the law.

After being pushed into the car, the car started slowly, and when the car started to drive, Pete reacted, "Gentlemen, I am a generous businessman, and everyone who knows me will admit this."

"If you've got some problems on your hands, I'd love to help you through what's going on and we'll be good friends, don't you think?"

He didn't speak at the beginning, in order to avoid making these people mistakenly think that his behavior was dangerous, and then stabbed him in shock, so he communicated with these people only after the car started driving.

When the car starts driving, it will form a closed small space, which still belongs to the kidnappers, so even if he says something or even moves his body at this time, these people will not be busy Give him a knife and run away.

The facts were exactly as Pete imagined. He spoke and moved his arms to make himself more comfortable. Instead of stabbing him, these people put away their knives.

But they didn't speak or answer, which made Pete's scalp tingle slightly. He thought that these people came to him for money, but now it seems unlikely.

The entire kidnapping process was fast and skillful, which also made Pete mistakenly think that these people were specifically for kidnapping and extortion, and he miscalculated the form.

The car was still driving in an orderly manner, and the inside of the car seemed extraordinarily quiet and depressing.

There are fewer and fewer pedestrians on the street outside the car window, and those high-rise buildings are gradually disappearing. Pete began to feel uneasy. This place is far away from the downtown area. If he was really killed here, no one would hear his throat. No one will come to help him.

When he was considering whether to save himself, the young man beside him might have sensed his subtle changes, and said softly, "We need your cooperation in some matters, sir, as long as you cooperate with our next actions, I promise you won't get hurt,

Of course, the premise is that you can't do something dangerous. "

I don't know if this sentence played a role, or the verbal communication made Pete feel a little more at ease, his tense muscles relaxed again, "I need to do something, or you want to get something from me. Learn something?"

He asked a question, then looked at the young man beside him, the young man smiled, and replied: "Some small things will not take up too much of your time, sir, and please keep quiet."

Pete didn't speak any more along the way, and he calmed down somewhat. About 30 minutes after he got in the car, the car stopped in a warehouse in the warehouse area on the outskirts of the city.

His warehouse manager works here and helps him look after the warehouse. Some goods that need to be transported abroad will be sent to the warehouse here for storage for a few days to a week after signing a consignment transportation agreement with the company.

Then, the night before the freighter docks, the goods are transported by truck to the temporary inspection warehouse at the terminal for inspection, and can be shipped the next day after inspection.

As for why it wasn't placed in the dock warehouse from the beginning, it was purely because the warehouse usage fee over there was too high, which was a bit scary.

When the car was stable, the folding door of the warehouse fell down with a bang. Pete looked back through the rear window of the car and watched the folding door slowly closing, cutting off the last ray of light from the outside world, and the whole warehouse became a little dark. , He felt inexplicably uneasy again.

"Please get out of the car, sir..." The young man beside him had completely given up controlling him, gave him a lot of space, and treated him very politely, but the more he did this, the more he felt an indescribable fear.

He nodded, and quickly got out of the car with both hands and feet. In this movement that seemed to have no problem, he quietly grasped the pen in his coat pocket, and then put it into the Decorative embellished hem pocket.

This pen is a great value, and in addition to being able to write, the cap is pushed off rather than twisted to reveal a miniature letter knife.

It may not be able to give people a lot of visual impact and make people feel intimidated, but it can kill when it presses on other people's vitals.

He got out of the car, adjusted his clothes, and stood where he was.

Soon, several footsteps came from a corner of the warehouse. Pete turned around and looked at the kid who was shining his shoes with some other people in astonishment. At this moment, he became angry.

Not only did he patronize the kid's business, but he also kindly gave him two yuan more, but what did the kid do?

Just because of his generosity, he thought he was a rich man, and then kidnapped him with these young people, planning to make a fortune from him?

This is why people in this society always complain that "kindness has become the devil's food, and only fangs can protect themselves from harm", because they repay kindness with malice!

He suppressed the anger in his heart and made up his mind that once Dang was out of danger, he would definitely send this child to the grave along with other people here, so that they could understand that in this world, although some people are low-key, But it doesn't mean that you can tolerate the offense of others.

"Is it him?" The guy next to the boy, a young man who looked to be in his twenties, asked.

This guy is wearing a very simple set of clothes, which makes people feel a bit rigid, especially the neckline of his little vest is a bit like a priest's lining, which lacks agility and trend, and is more rigid and solemn.

The kid stared at Pete several times, then nodded, "Yes, that's the gentleman..."

The young man nodded and patted the child's head, "Okay, you go back first, I'll find you later..." he said as he hugged the child's shoulder, and the child turned around Head towards the duty room, there should be a small door leading to the outside.

After watching the child leave, he walked into Pete, looked Pete up and down, and said with a smile, "Can you stretch out your hands, like this, with the back of your hands up!"

This guy made a demonstration, and Pete followed suit. He was a little strange. If he suspected that these people wanted to kidnap and blackmail him just now, he doesn't think so now, because the kidnappers only want money and after getting the money Safe to leave, they will not play games with hostages.

After observing Pete's hands for a while, some old-fashioned young people made another request, "I heard from the child that you have a pocket watch, can I see it?"

Pete was stunned for a moment. Although he nodded, he slowed down the movement of taking the pocket watch, and first touched the pockets that did not contain the pocket watch to delay the time.

He took off the ring, changed the belt, burned his shoes and those clothes in the west, but he did not change the pocket watch.

On the one hand, he really likes this pocket watch. Apart from being very, very valuable, it also has many special meanings. For example, this is the first high-end jewelry that Pete customized for himself after he founded the Earth God Sect.

He spent more than 20,000 yuan for this, which may not be a big deal to him now, but to him at that time, it was a huge sum of money, and it was also a souvenir for him to prove himself.

He can be sure that there are almost no people who know that he owns this pocket watch, except for a few masters who made this pocket watch, but the purpose of these people is so clear, he can't help but wonder if he...was exposed!

When he inserted his hand into his pocket, pushed open the cap of the pen and looked up at the young man opposite him, he was ready.

He was less than one meter away from this guy who seemed to be the boss of this group. He could have rushed forward to hold this guy hostage, and then tried to escape.

His eyes became a little erratic, but soon became firm. Just when his hands started to reach out and his body began to subconsciously lean forward to take a step forward, the young man quickly pulled out A gun was pointed at his forehead, which made his mind go blank.

"I saw something terrible from your expression, slow down, relax, and slowly take out the things in your pocket." The young man's observation skills were very meticulous and decisive, "Don't make moves that misunderstand me, although I don't want to kill a potentially innocent person."

Pete slowly took out the pocket watch with the other hand, and gently let go of the hand holding the pen, allowing the pen to slip back into his pocket.

The young man held Pete's pocket watch in one hand, and then pulled it hard. The shelf on the other end of the watch chain was released with a click, and the entire pocket watch fell into his hand.

He took a few steps back before retracting the gun, and then began to look at the pocket watch in his hand.

Exquisite rune carvings, as well as a woman's head outlined in inlaid colored gemstones, are exquisite, noble, and extraordinary.

When he looked up at Pete again, there was a little more smile on his face, "Sir, you are in trouble!"

The next second, Pete felt the wind blowing from the back of his head, and before he had time to dodge, his brain trembled, his eyes turned black, he fell to the ground and lost consciousness.

It was late in the evening when Dooling received the call, and he had been discussing the spring propaganda offensive with mayors all day long.

Some people think that there is no need to attract tourists through advertising. These people think that the role of word of mouth and word of mouth is far higher than the role of handing out leaflets and holding various promotional activities, and this summer there will be a Western Avengers. The release is equivalent to an advertisement for the tourism industry in the west.

People who have such thoughts are often older people. They live in the backward west and have relatively closed news, and have been seriously out of touch with the forefront of trends, which makes them completely conservative on certain issues.

In addition, the poverty in the past made them obsessed with loose finances, and they were unwilling to spend money to empty their pockets again, so they resisted Du Lin's request.

In the end, at Du Lin's request, these people also recognized the plans proposed by Du Lin, and promised to act immediately after returning.

This year will be the first real peak period for tourism in Ambiluo State. The paintball guns and bullets customized from the arms company have fully arrived. Durin has already begun to arrange for those "tour guides" who used to be gold diggers. "Organized hiding these weapons and ammunition in the mountains and wilderness of Ambiluo State.

Then they will record the places where they have hidden these weapons and ammunition on the map. These maps will become important props of the first Western battle royale game, and they are also invitation letters-only tourists who hold "map fragments" can To participate in this world-class military competition, the cable television group spent two million to buy the broadcasting rights of "Battle Royale in the West".

In the 24 regions, as many as 1,500 cameras will be installed to ensure that there will be a clearly visible process from the preliminary round to the final, and it can also be regarded as the protection of the players.

A series of publicity and big actions consumed a lot of energy for Du Lin. He didn't finish the meeting until after four o'clock, and then he received this call.

After being silent for a while, he ordered, "Send the man to me, I want to see him."
