At noon on the same day, Ye Xiaolang and Tian's father and son reached a consensus on the joint research and development of robots, Ye Xiaolang also emphasized that the robot research and development and Taoist economic alliance organization will be signed at the same time and on the same occasion, and will be put into practical action immediately after the agreement takes effect, never say half an empty word, and then Tian's father and son stood at the door of the courtyard, watching Ye Xiaolang and Dong Huacheng leave here.

Immediately, Ye Xiaolang and Dong Huacheng, who went down the mountain, got into the off-road vehicle and continued to march towards the Arctic Empire. Along the way, the two looked out the window while talking, and Ye Xiaolang, who was the most sensitive, realized that he was now very close to the Arctic Empire after finding that the fog outside the window was getting thicker and thicker, so Ye Xiaolang reminded the second apprentice Liu Chan to take out the documents and license plates of the temporary pass for the convoy that had passed through the consulate not long ago, and waited for review and inspection at the gate.

After another twenty minutes or so, a medieval church building similar to that of the Byzantine dynasty flashed out of the fog. I saw that on both sides of the huge arched gate of this building like a white iron tower, there were a row of armed forces with black cloth wrapped in hair, camouflage clothing, blue eyes, and beards, all of whom were holding submachine guns, and looked at a three-dimensional obstacle made of steel and painted with black and yellow, longitudinal trapezoidal and horizontal triangle in the middle, and Ye Xiaolang's off-road vehicle was parked in front of the obstacle, and behind it was his flat-headed diesel freight fleet.

At this time, the leaders of this group of armed forces of the Arctic Empire came to Ye Xiaolang's off-road vehicle, looked at the driver Liu Chan who had rolled the window, and used a special language to mutter to Liu Chan, which made Liu Chan embarrassed, so Liu Chan hurriedly turned his head to Ye Xiaolang in the passenger seat and said, "Master, what is he talking about, I don't understand the bird's language." ”

Ye Xiaolang hurriedly stretched his neck, gestured with his hand at the beard, and said, "I said, we don't understand your language, can you understand Chinese?"

The bearded man pointed to the sky with one hand, which made Ye Xiaolang misunderstood, Ye Xiaolang said angrily, "Oh no, no, no, it's not bird language, it's Chinese, you idiot and bastard!"

Suddenly, the bearded man shouted stiffly, "I'm grass your uncle, I point to the sky to mean it's going to rain, you bastard!"

At this time, Liu Chan glanced sideways at his master Ye Xiaolang, blinked his eyes, and said calmly, "Master, he understands Chinese." ”

Ye Xiaolang responded with a serious face, "The master has already guessed this, I just want to stimulate his little mind and make him impulsive and crazy." ”

When Liu Chan heard this, he thought hard in his heart, "Impulsive, crazy, one shot will destroy you!"

After a while, the bearded man took the motor vehicle documents and temporary pass handed over by Liu Chan, and after checking and confirming that they were correct, he was ready to release Ye Xiaolang and the others, but just before the release, the bearded chief kindly warned, "Our Arctic Empire has been fighting a civil war for more than ten years, so the law and order cannot be perfect, so you must be more careful after entering the territory, so you can do it yourself." ”

When Ye Xiaolang heard this, he frowned slightly, and then said "Thank you!" and drove towards the checkpoint where the obstacle had been removed, and walked farther and farther.

Fifteen minutes, the convoy entered the road on the outskirts of Rosdorf in the Arctic Empire, and slowly advanced towards the city, along the way the road was lined with armed men walking with guns, and just when Ye Xiaolang was sitting in the off-road vehicle, watching left and right, he saw a bomb flying from the air, which happened to fall more than 30 meters in front of Ye Xiaolang's off-road vehicle, in particular, the shock wave generated by the explosion of the bomb shot the bomb fragments more than 30 meters away, "bang" With a bang, it was ruthlessly embedded in the bulletproof windshield of the off-road vehicle, and thus this piece of glass was presented in front of Ye Xiaolang like a broken but still connected spider web.

Ye Xiao gasped after seeing this scene, Ye Xiaolang thought that the chaos within a country to this point was enough to prove that the country's economy would face a full-scale recession, because the war made the factory unable to operate normally and closed down, so the unemployed had nothing to do, their life was insecure, and they would take risks when they were short of money, they would steal, Robbery, and even civil strife that was endlessly staged because of dissatisfaction with the government's participation in anti-government organizations and confrontation with the government, seemed to be of great benefit to Tian Sifang, who was bent on recovering the country.

Thinking of this, Ye Xiaolang became more cautious, and couldn't help but order all trucks to slow down for the safety of the convoy, and Ye Xiaolang himself sat on the roof of the off-road vehicle to deal with all unpredictable emergencies, but when Ye Xiaolang became vigilant, it was smooth sailing all the way, no, the convoy had just arrived at an intersection, turned to the left, and found a timber company.

Ye Xiaolang, who was sitting on the roof of the car, could see very clearly that on the top of this all-glass round building with a height of more than 60 meters, there was a row of plaques with foreign languages written on it, and below it was a row of Chinese "Arctic Timber International Industrial Co., Ltd." , Ye Xiaolang finally breathed a sigh of relief after seeing all this, and then, Ye Xiaolang flew out of the car and came to the front of the company, and talked to two security guards who were more than one meter tall, wearing berets with submachine guns in their hands, and angular faces, of course, Ye Xiaolang was very worried that the other party did not understand Chinese.

Ye Xiaolang clasped his palms together and said, "Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable, may I ask the two security guards, can you go in and buy some, or negotiate the sale and purchase of thousands of cubic meters of wood, hehe, please let the two of you know." Ye Xiaolang said this, his eyes staring at these two guys with cold expressions.

Among them, the security guard on the left seemed to understand Ye Xiaolang's words, and he said in stiff Chinese, "I understand your thoughts, and I should let you in, but I can't let you in, what is the reason?

When Ye Xiaolang heard this, he secretly scolded in his heart, "Hurry up, hurry up your grandmother, what the hell, ask for money and go around so many bends, a bunch of bastard things!" Ye Xiaolang thought of this, he was a little angry in his heart, but he still showed a smile on his face, and said very kindly, "Hehe, do you know? I have long been ready to help you, so let's give each of you a thousand yuan, just as we meet for the first time, or as a meeting gift for the first time, the two of you are not too few!" Ye Xiaolang said, turning his head and giving his second apprentice Liu Chan a look, which meant to let Liu Chan get out of the car quickly, take out some spare banknotes, and bribe the two security guards.

Immediately, Liu Chan came to Ye Xiaolang's side, took out two thousand yuan, handed it to his master Ye Xiaolang, and said with something in his words, "Master, you are not even willing to buy a pair of underwear, but you are willing to give them banknotes for these people, you are really merciful and capable!" Liu Chan said here, peeking at his master Ye Xiaolang.

As soon as Ye Xiaolang heard this, he became angry, raised his leg and kicked the second apprentice Liu Chan, and said, ", what is reluctant to buy, you spread rumors and make trouble, is the master reluctant?" Master, my mind is broader than the sky, and more extensive than the earth, I can make a big vest for the two security guards in front of me if I save a pair of underwear, hehe, not to mention that the master I don't like to wear underwear." ”

Liu Chan smiled and echoed, "Master, do you know? I have always been your follower, that is to say, I also don't follow the usual path and never wear underwear!" After changing the conversation, he said, "Master, do you think this 'Arctic Timber International Industrial Co., Ltd.' is a regular company, or that they are leather bags・・・・・・

Ye Xiaolang understood the meaning of the words of the second apprentice Liu Chan, it is obvious that Liu Chan thinks that there are many foreign companies that are fraudulent companies with signs and false propaganda, when you sign a contract with them and transfer the banknotes to their accounts, the company will change its appearance, transfer the company's funds to other newly registered companies through multiple transfers to launder money, and at the same time announce that the existing company is bankrupt due to bad operation, and apply for bankruptcy protection from the bank, this trick has to be prevented!

Thinking of this, Ye Xiaolang frowned slightly, and then followed one of the security guards with a submachine gun in his hand and entered the company. At this time, Ye Xiaolang followed behind the security guard, walking in the company hall, Ye Xiaolang took the opportunity to look around, he found that the place was empty, except for the piece of floor-to-ceiling glass windows blocked by white curtains, that is, a Steinway grand piano in front of the left, and a bar made of mahogany similar to a bar, which was placed with all kinds of famous wines, which seemed very stylish, especially in this situation where no one cared, couldn't help but set off more mysterious, and it was desirable and trembling in my heart!

Three minutes later, Ye Xiaolang and his second apprentice Liu Chan, led by the security guard, went to the sixteenth floor, in front of a room with a bunch of foreign languages, and stopped. Then, there was a knock and shouting from the security guard, of course, the language of this tall and blue-eyed security guard was not Chinese.

And the strange thing is that Chinese is coming out of this room at this moment, especially the voice of the person in the room is thick and loud, "Emir, you don't need to say more, bring this guest in." The voice of the man in the house fell, and then there came the sound of steady footsteps, and the sound was coming towards the door of the house. Sure enough, the security guard named Emir had just pushed open the office door when he met the "noble" person.

Now, Ye Xiaolang and his second apprentice, Liu Chan, are sitting at the desk made of mahogany, looking at the man in a suit with blonde hair, a three-seven-point head, a long face, thick eyebrows, small eyes, a hooked nose, and thin lips.

Ye Xiaolang sat there and continued, "Manager Santos, I have already made it clear to you, we came here from the Republic of the Eastern Capital, five hundred kilometers away, we can't wait here for more than a month in order to buy your wood, if you really can't get three thousand cubic meters of wood in the near future, I can only find another way." ”

Manager Santos took a puff of his cigar and exhaled a heavy puff of smoke that seemed like a cloud, blocking the view and looming the scenery on the other side. Santos suddenly laughed, and said tactfully, "Hehe, Boss Ye, oh no, no Ye Daochang, please don't get excited, I said that I can get three thousand cubic meters of wood for you in a month, it's just a normal way, but if you are really in a hurry, I can provide you with special services, just ......" Santos said this, looked at Ye Xiaolang and rubbed his hands.

Ye Xiaolang observed some clues from Santos's words and demeanor, so Ye Xiaolang's originally anxious mood was quickly relieved, at this moment, Ye Xiaolan stared at Santos's face tightly, and asked cautiously tentatively, "Manager Santos, as long as you can get three thousand cubic meters of wood in the shortest possible time, I think I can agree to the general request, but if you ask too harshly, I can only find another way." When Ye Xiaolang said this, he looked at Santos coldly, looking like he was about to tear his face.

Santos still said with a smile on his face, "No, no, no, it's not as serious as you said, my requirements are not high, I just want to get some errand money, and you also know that the salaries of my subordinates are not high, so as long as you give me a donation of 50,000 yuan, I can get you 3,000 cubic meters of pine wood tomorrow afternoon, what do you see?" Santos's small eyes narrowed into a slit, looking like he was smiling, but when he looked closely, his expression was full of mystery.

When Ye Xiaolang heard this, he felt that it was worth it, but there were still many questions to be solved, Ye Xiaolang continued to ask, "I can agree to your request, but, you said before that you don't have so much wood, and then you said that you can get this deal done tomorrow afternoon, are you playing tricks on me, obviously there is wood but you say no, and then extort my money in disguise, are you impatient?" Ye Xiaolang's eyes flashed with a cold light.

Santos was nervous at first, then his face changed, and he frowned and said, "Don't you know, Daoist Ye, the timber hoarded by our company has indeed been sold out recently, and we are now applying for a permit to cut down the timber on the Virgen Peak, so we have no timber to sell so far, but don't worry, we will go to get you timber tonight, and strive to reach this deal tomorrow afternoon, as for how we get the timber, you don't have to worry about it." ”

Ye Xiaolang said, "You don't have any wood to cut down now, do you still want to rob it?"

After Santos smiled weirdly, he said, "The road is your own, if you are not ruthless, sooner or later you will be swallowed by others, so it is better to strike first, and then suffer!"

When Ye Xiaolang heard this, he responded, "The strong have their own strong hands, if you cross the river and tear down the bridge, something will happen sooner or later." ”

Santos was silent when he heard this.
