District 9

It's around 11 a.m.

Lin Chengdong, Zhan Nan, Zhou Zheng and others came to the eastern part of Mogambi town and entered a restaurant full of South African style.

In the room, an indescribable unpleasant smell spread. Lin Chengdong turned around and glanced around, and saw a middle-aged man wearing a pickup truck and two black men sitting by the window.

The two sides looked at each other, and Lin Chengdong walked over and asked, "Mr. Guo, right?"

"Yes, Guo Zihui!" The middle-aged man stood up and extended his palm: "Hello Mr. Lin!"

"Hello!" Lin Chengdong shook hands with the other party.

"Please sit down!" Guo Zihui greeted.

Lin Chengdong and Zhan Nan sat across from him, while the others opened a separate table and sat next to him.

"Mr. Guo, how is my lover's situation?" Lin Chengdong asked proactively.

"Oh, this matter is not easy to handle." Guo Zihui frowned and replied: "Xiao Xu was captured by the Red Scarf Army and is now being held in a prisoner camp. I found some people to operate it, but the effect was not great. Now I want to extort money.”

Lin Chengdong blinked: "What does this Red Scarf Army do?"

"They are a group of small warlords engaged in private armed forces, with more than 10,000 people." Guo Zihui whispered: "They invaded Mogambi some time ago and defeated another group of warlords. The local company your lover cooperated with, It was this one that was controlled by the defeated warlord, so she was captured during the battle.”

"Is it regarded as hostile capital?" Lin Chengdong asked.

"That's right." Guo Zihui said with a serious face: "Not only have they been arrested, but I also have more than 20 staff here who have been arrested, and now we can't find anyone."

"Have you already contacted the other party?" Lin Chengdong asked.

"Yes, I called one of their officers." Guo Zihui continued: "I don't know who leaked the news to them. Now the other party knows that your wife and my people are all Chinese companies in the three major districts. , came here specifically to do business, they thought we were rich, so they wanted to extort us."

"Is my lover safe?"

"It should be safe." Guo Zihui shook his head: "But I haven't spoken to her yet, I'm just guessing!"

Lin Chengdong fell silent.

"How much do they want?" Zhan Nan asked.

"Three million alliance coins, if you don't have cash, you can pay for the military equipment!" Guo Zihui thought for a while and said, "Medicine will also work."

"Should our two families plus one give us three million, or each of us should give three million?" Lin Chengdong asked carefully.

Guo Zihui was startled for a moment: "You are the one who will give us three million, and we are negotiating the price."

"oh!"

Lin Chengdong nodded.

"This is unlucky. Mogambi was very stable some time ago, because the armed force that was defeated was an old warlord. The leader was very prestigious in the local area, but he passed away some time ago, so the war started here." Guo Zihui gritted his teeth. He scolded: "Oh, if I had known this, I would have moved the company to Baku."

Lin Chengdong thought for a while and replied in a low voice: "Three million alliance coins are not a small amount. I didn't bring that much cash with me this time, so I have to remit it from home."

"Yes, yes." Guo Zihui nodded.

"Do you think this is okay? You and the officer on the other side should communicate with each other." Lin Chengdong whispered: "I can scrape together the money to give them, but I must first make sure that my lover is not in danger at the moment."

"Okay, I'll contact them." Guo Zihui took out his mobile phone.

"Sorry to trouble you." Lin Chengdong nodded.

Guo Zihui hesitated for a long time while holding the phone, and suddenly said with embarrassment: "Mr. Lin, I have a presumptuous request!"

"you say!"

"...It's like this. I paid a lot of money for this batch of goods in Mogambi. The amount the other party asked for is probably not small. In addition, there are more people arrested among us, so I'm afraid I will temporarily I don't have the ability to raise so much cash." Guo Zihui said in a low voice: "Look, if I reach an agreement, can you lend me some money first? I will definitely raise the money to pay you back after I return to Nanhu."

"How much to borrow?"

"It's estimated to cost one to two million." Guo Zihui replied.

"Okay, no problem." Lin Chengdong nodded: "Wenwen's friends are my friends."

"Thank you, thank you so much." Guo Zihui immediately stood up and said very sincerely: "I also want to express my gratitude to you on behalf of the Chinese staff who were arrested."

"You're welcome, please contact him." Zhan Nan said softly.

"good!"

Guo Zihui dialed the other party's phone number in front of the two of them. Xiao Wu sat next to them and listened to their conversation throughout.

After about five or six minutes, Guo Zihui handed the phone to Lin Chengdong: "You can have a one-minute conversation with her!"

Lin Chengdong immediately took the phone: "Hello, Wenwen?"

"...Old...Husband, where are you?"

"I'm in Mogambi!"

"……You came?"

"Then can I not come?" Lin Chengdong asked calmly: "Let's not talk about these useless things for now. I will take care of your business outside."

"well!"

"Did they make things difficult for you? Can your safety be guaranteed?" Lin Chengdong asked immediately.

"There is no difficulty for me at the moment. There are many people who have been arrested. Some of them must have betrayed us and said that we are bosses from the Chinese area, so they want to blackmail." Xu Wen replied immediately.

"Okay, you don't have to worry about anything, I'll do the rest!"

"Husband, I'm sorry...!"

"Don't say this, let's talk when we get back...!" Lin Chengdong had just finished speaking when Xu Wen's phone was snatched away, followed by a jabbering local language coming from the receiver, and the person speaking was a man.

Lin Chengdong returned the phone to Guo Zihui and whispered to him: "Tell him, if something goes wrong with my lover, I won't give you a dime!"

"Okay." Guo Zihui communicated with the other party again.

After a while, the call was hung up, and Guo Zihui immediately invited: "Did you find a place to live on your own? Otherwise, why don't you come and live with me? It will be relatively safer."

"No need." Lin Chengdong waved his hand: "Our company has an office here! I will go back to collect the money and call you tomorrow!"

"That's fine."

Guo Zihui nodded and stretched out his hand: "See you tomorrow?"

"great, see you tomorrow!"

…

Ten minutes later, Lin Chengdong and others left the restaurant and walked away.

"Are you really going to give me money?" Zhan Nan asked with a frown.

"Give me a few, this is a set." Zhou Zheng added succinctly.

Lin Chengdong turned his head and looked around, and cursed in a hoarse voice: "Trouble! This matter will definitely not be solved by giving money."

Zhou Zheng turned around and looked around: "Damn it, I have to find a way to escape first, someone must be watching."

In Baku, District Four, a man wearing gold-rimmed glasses smiled and said to a local officer: "...Mr. Temba, your teeth are the most beautiful ones I have ever seen!"
