Chapter 58: The Bottomless Pit
"Green poison has taken the bait!"
Lin Xiuyi said as he opened his Bitcoin account on the computer and confirmed his statement to everyone.
"Wow, it seems to be going much smoother than I thought!"
A hint of surprise and delight flashed on Natalie Ivanova's face, and then she showed a smile of appreciation and admiration to Lin Xiuyi.
"But 1 million is not a little less, Green Poison almost didn't hesitate to transfer the money to our account. Although this is a lot of money for ordinary people, for drug dealers like Green Poison, it may be a pocket money......"
Officer Dussaud was not as optimistic as the others, and he voiced his concerns to everyone's face. Then everyone turned their attention to Lin Xiuyi again.
In fact, I have confirmed the division of labor with Green Poison through an email before, and I am mainly responsible for the production side, while the procurement of raw materials and the sales of finished products are the responsibility of Green Capital. Do you know how much the U-48800 costs? It's about $1,000 a kilogram, so the cost of purchasing raw materials alone is not a small amount. I will try to persuade him to buy more raw materials to stock up, in addition, the investment in production is not a small amount of money, once the whole production line is established, then to maintain the operation of this equipment will also be an astronomical amount. When the time comes, Green Poison will find that this newly opened drug factory will become a bottomless abyss that devours money......"
Several police officers present heard Lin Xiuyi's explanation, and all of them showed a trace of ill-intentioned smiles on their faces. Now that Green Poison has been hooked once, as long as the operation is done properly, he is not afraid that he will be fooled, and when the time comes, as long as Lin Xiu empties the savings of Green Poison little by little, he will not be able to get out of the car even if he wants to.
Speaking of this, there was a sudden knock on the door, and as the door was opened from the outside, the dusty Osborne ran to Lin Xiuyi with some excitement and asked him:
"I heard that Green Poison has been hooked?
"It's true, we were talking about it, you see, he just put 100 bitcoins into my account!"
As soon as Lin Xiu spoke, he clicked on the computer again and twisted the screen towards Osborne, who immediately stared at the numbers on the screen, his face simply blooming.
"Hah...... I knew this guy wasn't that hard! Looks like I'm going to have to tighten up the construction over there!"
As he spoke, Osborne reached into his jacket pocket, and then he took out a small bag of things and put them on Lin Xiuyi's hand, with a smug look on his face.
"What is this?"
Lin Xiuyi asked Osborne in surprise.
"Professor Jeffrey's new product, an alternative to Chinese white, I personally prefer to call it London Blue, you see this thing is as beautiful as a jewel!"
Osborne opened the small plastic bag in Lin Xiu's hand, and then poured all the contents into his own hand, Lin Xiuyi was startled by Osborne's actions at first, because he knew that Chinese white could not come into direct contact with the skin. But when he saw Osborne unscathed, he immediately understood why.
"Professor Jeffrey reduced its toxicity?"
Lin Xiuyi asked curiously, and then he also carefully picked up a crystal from Osborne's hand. It is a crystal the size of a fingernail of a little finger, with a hint of blue in the crystal, much like the color of the clear sea photographed on a travel show. But outwardly, this thing looks more like a gem than a drug.
"Yes, this thing is much safer than the Chinese white thing, at least you can hold it in your hands without any protection! Professor Jeffrey doesn't want to kill people with something he makes......
Osborne answered Lin Xiuyi's question while distributing the crystals in his hand to all the partners present. After everyone got this crystal, they all pointed it at the light source as if they were appreciating a gemstone.
"Osborne, you don't really call him London Blue!"
Sean played with the crystals in his hand and asked the other party with a little surprise.
"Of course, I'm not an idiot, you can call it whatever you like anyway......"
Things went more smoothly than expected, and Lin Xiuyi quickly told Green Poison the news of the successful preparation of the new drug by email. After receiving Lin Xiuyi's email, Green Poison also quickly sent an address, asking Lin Xiuyi to send him a sample.
Lin immediately used Google Maps to look up the location of the address, which is home to a cheap apartment in Baltimore, Maryland. Lin Xiuyi quickly told Sean the news, believing that the FBI would definitely keep an eye on this address.
"Brother, your efficiency is beyond my imagination, and I really can't wait to see our factory officially put into operation. So, the next step, can we go straight to production......"
The anxious Green Poison had just seen the photos of the new product that Lin Xiu had posted, and he couldn't wait to ask about the next thing.
"I'm afraid it's not that easy!"
Lin Xiu poured a basin of cold water on the green poison and said.
"Why, aren't they all successfully prepared?"
"Brother Green Poison, this is just a small amount of finished products prepared in the laboratory, and if it were in that kind of environment in a factory, I'm afraid it would take some time. But before that, we need to purchase certain raw materials for the pre-production stage of the experiment, can you order a few tons of U-48800 for our next production tests? ”
"Wait a minute, how many tons? Why so many?"
Green Poison asked Kuman Tong in confusion.
"Brother, these devices can't be stopped when they are running, and they haven't been successfully trial-produced in the factory environment yet, so I don't dare to expect that we will be able to enter the full-scale production stage soon. Another thing is that the master I found is a talent, I promised him a salary of $100,000 a month, and I also paid him half a year in advance, and I don't have much liquidity here......"
Kuman Thong cried to Green Poison in the email.
"$100,000, why is it so much?"
"Brother, you'll know when you receive a new product, it's definitely worth the money. Also, I think we're going to have to import a small wastewater treatment facility and an air purification facility, unless you want the environmental department to find out that we're secretly producing these Smurfs in a garage......"
"Ah?...... Well, how much more do you need?"
"Transfer 1.5 million to me first, and let me open the factory!"
