Chapter 343: Preparing Before Departure
Diamonds, gold, and the U.S. dollar are all three of the hard currencies used in the world for trading. Diamonds, in particular, are highly valued and globally recognized, but they are not bulky and difficult to carry in large quantities like gold. Therefore, in many black market transactions around the world, diamonds are very favored.
Although Fernande is the underground emperor of Brazil, and he must have a lot of eyes and ears in Rio de Janeiro, as the saying goes, "people die for money, birds die for food", and it will be much easier to have such a bag of diamonds by his side.
Luo Hao doesn't believe that in the whole of Rio de Janeiro, there is not even a person who can be bought! In addition, although Fei Lunan has the absolute right to speak in the underground world of Brazil, there will always be his opponents in the shadows, and if he can get in touch with those ground snakes, it will be more convenient for Luo Hao and their actions.
"His sister, this time it's all ready!" Xu Xudong looked at the diamond that was repacked into the black flannel bag by Luo Hao, rubbed his hands excitedly, and said, "My Neighbor Totoro's poison is almost solved, we should be able to act." ”
"Not yet!" Fang Hongyu once again denied Xu Xudong's action proposal, pointed to the camouflage combat uniform on his body, and said, "You plan to dress like this and bring so many guys into Rio de Janeiro?" Isn't this tantamount to putting a label on your forehead and letting the mercenaries of Fallunan come to your door? ”
Hearing Fang Hongyu's reminder, Xu Xudong patted his forehead and secretly said that he was careless. After completely integrating into the life of the barracks, Xu Xudong has become accustomed to the camouflage combat uniform on his body.
"Everyone is here to look carefully and see if they can find the right clothes!" Luo Hao gave an order, and several people immediately started rummaging.
But the six people of Tactical Group B rummaged through the entire stilted building, and only found two sets of clothes belonging to Fei Lunan, which was not enough for everyone to change.
"His sister, why is Fei Lunan's net worth so big that he has such two sets of clothes?" Xu Xudong pursed his lips very dissatisfied, and threw the red flower shirt in his hand, which was not suitable for him to wear, on the bed.
"Sister Hong, do you have a way?" Luo Hao looked at Fang Hongyu and asked, this was the only person he could get help with at the moment.
"Don't worry, I can get the clothes for you." Fang Hongyu said confidently: "But before that, you must first solve the matter of your own weapons, and it will definitely not work to bring such a guy into the city." ”
Hearing this, Luo Hao nodded, looked at the five team members and said, "Everyone gives up all other heavy firepower except for the pistol, spare magazine, and dragon tooth saber!" ”
Outside the stilted building, Xu Xudong looked at the weapons that had been piled up together and had been poured with diesel fuel drawn from the diesel generator, and said with some distress: "Haozi, there are so many good things, we really want to burn them?" ”
"Burn!" Luo Hao said categorically, "The value of the things in Balang's drug warehouse is much higher than these, and we didn't burn them with a fire?" ”
Luo Hao threw the zippo lighter that was dancing with flames in his hand towards the pile of weapons. The diesel fuel poured on those weapons was ignited by the lighter, and the flames immediately "whirred" to the flames.
After signaling a few people around him to retreat, Luo Hao took out two grenades that were also found in the stilted building, bit the safety with his teeth, and threw them towards the fire.
"Boom!"
"Boom!"
Two clouds of gunpowder smoke rose from the ground, and the assault rifles and sniper rifles that had been discharged from their bullets were instantly distorted by the two grenades, and it was absolutely impossible to use them again. After disposing of the weapon, the six men of Tactical Group B followed Fang Hongyu and walked east along the tributary of the Amazon River in front of the stilted building.
The Amazon River is not one of the largest rivers in the world in terms of flow, basin and tributaries. Often there are many small tributaries in a larger tributary, such as the small tributary next to Luo Hao and them at this time, which is separated from a large tributary upstream.
The group walked along this small tributary for almost half a day, and arrived at the confluence of the small tributary and the large tributary. On the side of the large tributary, which is more than 200 meters wide, there are five stilted buildings, and from time to time you can see people walking between them.
"Anru!" Fang Hongyu greeted a young man about twenty years old with an axe in his hand and was about to walk towards the rainforest.
The young man who was called "An Lu" by Fang Hongyu, after seeing the person clearly, grinned at Fang Hongyu, put down the axe in his hand, and almost ran towards Fang Hongyu in a running manner, obviously he was very familiar with Fang Hongyu.
After Fang Hongyu chatted briefly with An Lu, she introduced Luo Hao and the others to An Lu. For these six Fang Hongyu's friends, Anlu also welcomed them.
After a brief introduction, Fang Hongyu asked An Lu for clothes, and An Lu carefully glanced at the six people in Tactical Group B, and then exchanged words with Fang Hongyu in the local dialect.
"Anlu said that clothes are not a problem, and he will go and find us the right clothes right away." Fang Hongyu translated An Lu's words to Luo Hao word for word.
Luo Hao nodded when he heard this, took out a roll of dollars, untied the rubber band, counted out ten sheets from it and handed it to An Lu.
Looking at the green banknotes in Luo Hao's hand, An Lu's eyes obviously flashed with longing, but he didn't take it, but looked at Fang Hongyu hesitantly. When he saw Fang Hongyu nodding affirmatively at him, he reached out and took the banknote in Luo Hao's hand, and then quickly ran to the stilted building on the shore to prepare clothes for Luo Hao and them.
$1,000, in a bustling big city, a trip to a high-end nightclub costs more than $1,000, but in Anlu's opinion, this money is more than he makes in a year!
As soon as Tactical Group B followed Fang Hongyu into An Lu's stilted building, An Lu had already found clothes that suited them according to Luo Hao's height and body type. Anlu brought more than just clothes to Tactical Group B, a large piece of bread.
Although the color and appearance of that piece of bread were not very good, the six people of Tactical Group B, who were already hungry for a long time, still managed so much, scrambling to stuff the broken bread into their mouths. Looking at the scene of Luo Hao and them snatching bread, An Lu, who was standing aside, smiled innocently.
When Luo Hao and the others took their clothes into the room to change, Fang Hongyu began to ask An Lu about the news of entering the city again. When Luo Hao and the others came out of the room after changing their clothes, Fang Hongyu told them the results they had heard, "An Lu said that we came in time, and he is planning to take a finished raft to the town tomorrow to sell, and he can take us with him by the way." If we had been a day late, we would have had to wait another twenty days. ”
