Chapter 14: Slaying the Dragon (continued)
Reading Pavilion γ γ, the full text is free to read. I looked in the back seat of the car, and there was no one. So I got into the co-pilot's seat, and without waiting for me to speak, she started the car and drove out.
I said, "What the hell is going on?" Don't count on me, I can't help you. β
"I don't need you to help me, I called you out to help you."
"Break the siege for me? Am I besieged? You've delayed my good work. A moment of spring/night is worth a thousand gold! β
"Then I'll send you back." She slammed on the brakes as she spoke.
I hurriedly said, "No, that's what I said." I don't know how to get rid of her. β
"You've gone to great lengths to get close to this woman, I'm afraid you're going to do something bad, right?"
I leaned back, put my hands on the back of my head and said, "What can I do badly, I'm a good person!" β
After hearing this, Mo Yan smiled: "Good person, now saying who is a good person is almost the same as scolding someone." Good people are not rewarded, and they will be harmed for a thousand years! In this world, can good people still live? There are a few who have made a fortune by working in a down-to-earth manner, but those who have made money from speculation. β
"I've heard you're also a flipper."
Mo Yan tilted his head and looked at me and said, "Do you think I'm the same as those speculators?" You're underestimating me too much. What I do, you won't understand. But what do you do, I understand. β
I said, "You understand? β
"You're going to deal with the Hu family, aren't you?"
I said: "It's not to deal with the Hu family, it's just that I know myself and the enemy, his Hu family always wants to deal with me, I have to prepare early." β
"You owe me two favors. First, I helped you get Mei Xue; Second, I didn't plan to tell the Hu family. This Hu Changsheng wanted to see me more than once. β
I said, "See?" β
"I gave him face, why should I see him? It's just an antiquities dealer, he's not qualified. β
I said, "Why are you helping me?" β
"I told you that I have a grudge against Ma Wu."
"Ma Wu is not dead yet, he should have gone to Hong Kong."
"Whatever, who told him to kill my family?"
I said, "Who is Agui?" β
"I brought back a Labrador retriever from Europe, and just scared his son, and he beat my dog to death. You also know that the Labrador doesn't bite, it just likes that kid. β
I said in my heart that this was not for the sake of food, but for a dog. What kind of grudge is this, I really don't understand this rich man's world. I said, "Okay, even if I owe you a favor, how are you going to make me pay it back?" β
"Later, where do you want to go?"
I said, "Just throw me at the intersection and I'll go home." β
When he arrived at the intersection, he didn't throw me down, but drove all the way to the entrance of my alley.
She looked into me and she knew my family lived here.
She leaned back, looked at me and said, "Do me a favor." β
I said, "What? β
"Come with me to Shenzhen, there is a machine tool shipped to Hong Kong, I have to find a way to get it."
I said, "Is this a hassle?" Is it illegal? β
"It's not illegal, but it's troublesome." "It's even dangerous," she said. β
"Then I won't go, I can't afford to play with you."
Mo Cheng looked at me and was happy, and said: "Without a good machine tool, nothing can be made, our country needs machine tools." β
"What does the state have to do with you? Aren't you a descendant of the Mo family? I've seen the Mojia mechanism, you can't build it yourself! β
Mo Pi suddenly looked at me and said, "Who told you that I am the heir of the Mo family?" β
I just tried it casually, and I didn't think I could really try it out. I looked at her and smiled and said, "Not only can you investigate me, I can also investigate you." Can't the Mohists build machine tools? β
Mo Pi said: "The German machine tool is very advanced, and the Mo family can do nothing. A part of the same model, our domestic one can only be used for 3,000 hours on a car, but the German man-made one can be used for 300,000 hours. In addition to the material, the biggest gap is in the machine. β
I looked at her and said, "What does it have to do with me?" β
Mo Yan looked at me and said, "I didn't expect you to be so indifferent, get out of the car, I misjudged you." β
I pushed the door and got out of the car, swayed into the alley, walked dozens of meters inside, the more I thought about it, the more wrong it tasted, turned around to see, Mo Yan did not go, the car was still there. I turned around and came back, went to the car, knocked on the window, and I said, "Tell me the details." β
"Get in the car."
When I got on the bus, she lowered her seat, stretched her waist and said, "This batch of things has been brought back, but it is a great achievement." β
I said, "Can you give me a hukou?" β
Mo Yan turned his head to look at me and said, "Yes." As long as the things are shipped back, I will handle the household registration for you. β
I said, "Let's talk about what's going on." β
Mo Pi nodded and said, "I bought this machine tool in Germany under the name of a manufacturing factory, and after the machine arrived at this manufacturing factory, I replaced it with an old machine tool. There was a flower graft, and the tanuki changed the prince. Then they were loaded onto a cargo ship bound for the United Kingdom, and after arriving in the United Kingdom, they were transshipped to Hong Kong. β
I said, "Why do you have to go to the UK and come directly to Hong Kong?" β
"The inspection of German ships to Britain is not very strict, and even if it is found that there are machine tools, it doesn't matter. After arriving in the UK, the inspection of ships coming to Hong Kong was not very strict. It was shipped all the way to Hong Kong, but after arriving in Hong Kong, it was detained by Hong Kong Customs, because it was not a machine tool that was reported when it was declared, but a printing press. β
I said, "And then?" β
"Then I got in touch with the gangsters in Hong Kong and asked them to figure out how to get things out. It was then broken down into several pieces and transported to Shenzhen. It was placed in a warehouse somewhere, we don't know where, only the gangsters in Hong Kong and Shenzhen know the exact location. But they opened their mouths wide and asked for three million dollars, otherwise they would not release the goods. β
I said, "This is a lie, can't you talk about it anymore?" β
"There are also people in them who are good at it. At the beginning, it cost five million dollars, which has already dropped to the bottom, and now my biggest concern is that if you give him money, he still won't release the goods, which is too troublesome. This machine tool is going to be sent to Shenyang, and Shenyang is waiting to use it. β
I said, "You mean, the money is willing to come out, but the things have to be guaranteed to come back." β
Mo Yan nodded and said, "That's what it means, what I'm most worried about is that the money is given, and the things can't come back." This kind of thing can't be handled officially, it's smuggled over, and if you don't do it, there will be an international dispute, understand? β
I said, "Since he made an offer and you are willing to pay, it stands to reason that nothing will happen." β
"There's not that much to say." Mo Cheng looked at me at this time and said, "You are Wu Dingguo's proud protΓ©gΓ©, who else can I find if I don't look for you?" Don't worry, it's done, and I can't treat you badly. β
"You're really a big dealer." I say.
"I'm serving the people." She stared at me and said.
"Isn't it just a machine tool, with these three million dollars, you work hard, how good it is to build one yourself."
Mo Yan looked at me and shook his head and said, "If you can't build it, you can't build it, it's not something that can be won in a day or two." It takes hundreds of years of continuous research, exploration, and tireless pursuit. We can wait, but there are some things it can't wait. β
"You've taken a fancy to my teacher. Wouldn't it be better for you to go to my teacher to help you? β
"I looked for it, but I didn't find it." She did not shy away from saying, "I can only retreat to the next best thing and find you the most suitable." I'm worried about how to get in touch with you, I can't imagine that you will be sent to the door, this is providence. β
"I'm willing to go, but there's no guarantee that it will work." I say. "It's not for you, I'm also for the people."
"How much do you want?"
I said, "I don't love money, and I don't care if it's money or not." I wonder how many people we are going this time? β
"Just me and you. It's not something that can be done with a lot of people. Mo Yan said. If they get the money and give us something, we will load it and pull it back immediately. If we give money, we won't give us anything. You're going to have to figure it out. β
"It's a bit difficult."
"Otherwise, what would I do with you!" Mo Pi gave me a blank look and said.
"When are you leaving?"
"The sooner the better." She said, "Wait for it, arrive a day early, everyone will be a day early." β
I said, "Then you have arranged it, and I can leave at any time." β
"It's hot in the south, just wear summer clothes." Mo Pi looked at me and smiled.
I got out of the car and said, "Got it." "High-quality and free reading is in the Reading Pavilion."
