It was as if a greedy eagle looked at a group of frightened and paralyzed voles, and strode up to Tang Guoming, who was in front of those foreigners, with a ferocious meaning in his eyes. Raising his hand and pointing the muzzle of the gun at the feet of this group of foreign hostages, Tang Guoming said coldly: "To put it bluntly, you are my goods now, and I ...... It's the owner of the goods! ”

Asking the middle-aged white man for advice again, the hostage who had been speaking cautiously replied, "Yes, sir." The agreements we have made with the gentlemen who have preceded you are equally valid for you. We ......"

Suddenly raised the muzzle of the gun and pointed it at the hostage, Tang Guoming suddenly frightened back what the hostage wanted to say next: "My goods, as the owner of the goods, I will pay the price." See what I mean? ”

Adam's apple rolled and swallowed hard, and the hostage who opened his mouth to answer looked at Tang Guoming's muzzle, and then looked at the middle-aged white man in the crowd, and then turned around and said: "The honorarium that the company can pay ......"

Not wasting time at all, Tang Guoming turned the muzzle of the gun and pointed it directly at the middle-aged white man, and said to the middle-aged white man in a cold tone: "Should I call you a manager or a captain or something like that?" But it doesn't matter, what matters now is, how much do you think you guys are worth? ”

Unlike the hostages who spoke, the middle-aged white man, who showed some boldness, slowly stood up and replied calmly: "The agreement we have reached is $1.2 million, and the company is already considering paying this ransom......

Before listening to the words of the middle-aged hundred, Tang Guoming had already unceremoniously interrupted the middle-aged white man's words: "Two and a half million US dollars!" ”

Without waiting for the look of surprise in the eyes of the middle-aged white man, Tang Guoming had already rushed to continue: "I think you are worth this money!" If...... If you don't think it's worth it, I can also consider saving you the trouble of negotiating with Constantine! ”

Very decisive, the middle-aged white man said happily: "Yes! But I need a satellite phone to contact the company! I think I can please you! ”

Tang Guoming nodded, took out the phone from behind his waist and threw it over: "Call immediately to inform your boss to prepare this money." ”

The middle-aged white man stretched out his left hand to take the phone, but handed it in his right hand and pressed the dial button, but after a while, he looked up at Tang Guoming suspiciously: "It seems that there is no power?" ”

Tang Guoming, who was expected of this situation, pretended to look at the middle-aged hundred people coldly, and then slowly turned around: "Wait." ”

Walking back to Pan Guan's side quickly, pressing the call button for everyone to hear, Tang Guoming lowered his voice and said: "It's a bit of a doorway, it's really not as simple as a few ordinary engineers!" Eric only asked for a ransom of 1.2 million, which is a fair price, and I doubled it and added a fraction of 2.5 million, but the guy agreed to pay it without thinking about it, which is probably more than the insurance amount. If I were the chief officer of Constantine's company, I would have already spent money to buy insurance for them before I came to the war-torn countries in Africa anyway, so I would simply push it to the insurance company for disposal, and I wouldn't have to ask for trouble and pay for this extra money! I think he's worth $2.5 million alone! ”

The other three were all carrying out their own tasks, and they heard Tang Guoming's analysis clearly but did not interject, only Pan Guan, who was close to him, replied approvingly: "A person with a head of 50,000 to 100,000 US dollars is the market price of this country, and the insurance company probably only accepts this level of insurance. But...... Could it be because the gun is on the head, and you can only agree to how much you want? ”

Grabbing the spare battery of the satellite phone, Tang Guoming stood up: "People don't have a temper when they have nothing, and it is different to give the boss hope and give an extreme disappointment." Dare to promise to give this money, but I can't get it, and I'm not afraid that I will kill them all in a fit of rage? Smart people won't take this risk, it's best to cry poor from the beginning - Lei Gong, take over the vigilance task of frying liver. Fried liver, this guy is a left-hander, but he is talking on the phone with his right hand, obviously trying to do something from the dead end of my sight, fried liver, staring at this guy from your point of view. Judge, operate a drone for one-on-one surveillance, pay attention to turn on the sound receiver, and don't miss any sound. Complete. ”

didn't need to get a reply from his teammates, Tang Guoming walked back to the hostage quickly, raised his hand and threw the spare battery: "Remind you, I don't have much time and patience!" ”

The middle-aged white man delicately stretched out his left hand to take over the battery, and reinstalled it on the satellite phone in three or two clicks: "Please believe me, we have had enough of this nightmare, and we hope to reach a consensus as soon as possible to resolve this little misunderstanding." ”

Coldly watching the middle-aged white man dial with his right hand again, Tang Guoming said coldly: "Do you need me to avoid it?" ”

The middle-aged white man shook his head very generously: "There is no need, sir. ”

Just before the phone was connected and the middle-aged white man said 'Mr. Heinz' in German on the phone to say hello, Gu Weisu's voice had already sounded in Tang Guoming's headset: "Boss, as soon as this guy dials out the number, he keeps knocking out Morse code on the back of the phone with his index finger in the opposite corner of your line of sight, obviously he has received very strict military training!" You're right! Complete! ”

Watching coldly at the middle-aged white man on the phone with a smiling face that seemed to have a relatively smooth conversation and received all the good news, Tang Guoming quietly stretched out his fingers hanging by his leg and made an inquiring gesture.

Without waiting for Gu Weisu to answer, Pan Guan preemptively said, "Where can he see clearly at that distance?" And it's braided! I've included the bitrate of the tapping, and I'm cracking it with decoding software! ”

Still quietly, Tang Guoming made an inquiring gesture again.

Pan Guan: "It's not difficult! How complicated can it be to rely on memorization without a codebook? It's nothing more than one of the few elementary ciphers commonly used by Europeans, which can be cracked in no time - there it is! This guy first reported their current situation in Morse code, and from our analysis of our attitudes towards Chinese workers, he judged that we were probably also Chinese. Then report on our numbers, our firepower, and our current approximate location - it's fucking dark! He advised his superiors to mobilize men immediately and kill us and the Chinese workers at the time of payment, and then pushed it to Eric's head and announced that Eric's men had executed all the hostages when they were attacked. It's better that way......"

Listening to Pan Guan's almost synchronous translation, his eyes watched the middle-aged white man gradually show a more relaxed look, Tang Guoming's expression gradually became much more relaxed, as if a huge sum of money enough to get rid of this kind of knife-edged blood-licking career was about to arrive, and even brought a little bit of longing for the future life?

is also observing and analyzing the expression of the leader of the Chinese mercenaries, the middle-aged white man pretended to be a moment of mournful pleading, and the elated telephone negotiation finally ended, and his face also showed the relief of finally seeing the rainbow after the wind and rain. After ending the call, the middle-aged hundred people took the phone with a smile on their faces and walked straight towards Tang Guoming.

That is, after the middle-aged white man just hung up the phone, Pan Guan's simultaneous translation was also nearing the end: "Most of these hostages are really innocent, they are old and hard-working engineers, but there are three of them who are not good children and have combat capabilities." This guy was reporting on how to make payments in a way that was in sync — plus, I was translating their conversations in the same voice using a German translation software. The guy on the other end of the phone is obviously also a veteran, and the two of them are bargaining for ransom while knocking on Morse code, and two sets of communications with completely different meanings are going on at the same time, and they work together seamlessly! Complete! ”

After a few steps away, the middle-aged white man looked at Tang Guoming's eyes just to congratulate himself on the fact that the lives of his group of people had survived, and at the same time full of longing for life. With a sincere smile, the middle-aged white man pretended to be excited and said to Tang Guoming: "Sir, I hope that the news I want to say next can make you a little more satisfied." My boss told me that the ransom is not an issue, you just need to come up with a handover location that you think is safe......"

Also nodding with relief, Tang Guoming lowered the automatic rifle and lifted it horizontally on his hands, took a step forward and said with a smile: "I also have good news for you." ”

The smile in the eyes of the middle-aged white man had not yet been raised to a more sincere level, Tang Guoming's face had changed suddenly, and he viciously smashed the butt of a gun on the stomach of the middle-aged white man: "Don't be so troublesome!" ”

Skillful like an old farmer drying rice on the threshing floor, Tang Guoming took advantage of the situation to raise his rifle, and then hit the butt of the rifle from top to bottom, smashing it the middle-aged white man's rickety back, holding his hands in his stomach and curling up into a prawn like a big prawn, just barely supporting the staggering middle-aged white man who did not fall, and smashed it directly to the ground!

As if he was still unsatisfied, more as if to vent his anger, Tang Guoming leaned over and smashed the butt of several guns on the middle-aged white man in a row, and then kicked the body parts that were not fatal, but would cause people to hurt terribly.

Curled up and rolling on the ground with his head in his hands, the middle-aged white man didn't even wait to get over the cramps in his stomach, and already cried out loudly: "Sir, sir! Why is that? We agree with your offer and can pay immediately! We ......"

Tang Guoming's face turned hideous and he stopped beating: "Did you pay it?" Isn't $2.5 million too much? I suspect your boss isn't so generous! ”

The middle-aged white man let go of the hands holding his head and showed a look of surprise: "What are you talking about?" I don't understand at all! ”

Deliberately sneering, Tang Guoming did not respond to the middle-aged white man's acting skills, the automatic rifle pointed at the crowd according to the muzzle on the shoulder of the gun, and passed over the heads of three of the hostages who were obviously stronger than the others: "Mr. Franz, Mr. Carr, Mr. Wolfgang, the three of you have just taken over the pen, thanks to your Mr. Schulenburg's deliberate care for you!" Please come out and pick up the work! ”
