Chapter 197: Bounty Hunter

Zhang Xiaoman assigned a total of three tasks to the light blue department, except for a long-term type of intelligence collection task, the remaining two are timely tasks that can be completed relatively quickly.

However, it is relatively difficult to find the venom of the black mamba snake compared to recruiting base builders.

This snake is not an endangered species, and because of its own ability and relatively few natural predators, the population in Africa tends to be stable.

The more troublesome thing about finding this snake is that there is no market for this piece in China, although it can be bought through some ways abroad, but because there is no value of large-scale breeding, the number is destined not to be too much.

Of course, you can still find a small house, but it's not cost-effective, because snake venom itself is expensive.

It can be said that the price of snake venom in the same measure can be better than the top expensive perfume on the market, and if you buy it in large quantities, it is not only very difficult to find, and even if you find it, the amount may not be enough, and the price will be sky-high.

Therefore, considering all the above considerations, the method that Xiao Shun and others thought of was to go directly to the place of origin to find it, fortunately, Bei Ye had a way to get a large amount of snake venom, otherwise it would be a lot more troublesome to do.

At this moment, about 5 days have passed since the mission was dispatched.

In an unknown hamlet in the north of the country of Gangguo, east of the Wele River, a group of people from the Light Blue Department were sitting in a very simple hut eating breakfast.

They eat a local special delicacy, according to the word translated by Bei Ye, it is called "wooden soup", in fact, to put it bluntly, it is a paste made by grinding and boiling cassava.

“ukaelMasatolgongkkoyopasaAnglpi,omonngotoukésntoeekozemsilimbidaTo。”

At the edge of the room, a black woman wearing a white tall cloth hat said to the crowd.

She was dressed in the traditional national costume of the steel fruit cloth region, and she was the owner of this room, and everyone came to stay here.

She speaks a northern language called Lingala, and many of the words in this language are from French, but because the variants are so powerful, even Xun You, who is proficient in French, did not understand it.

But this is not a problem, after all, in this team of the light blue department, there is such an existence as Bei Ye, who travels from south to north, although he is not proficient, but he can also use the local language for some simple communication.

"What she just said is that these are the first ripe cassavas, which are usually used to entertain distinguished guests."

Bei Ye played the role of translator very well, although it may still be a little inaccurate, but the general meaning can be expressed.

“¥……#¥%@! @#”

Bei Ye opened his mouth to say something to the man, and the other party also replied with a few words, and then left with a smile.

"I asked her to help us see if Wes had arrived, today is our appointed time, if this guy arrives, he will definitely go to the only restaurant here to drink, but the owner there is not very welcoming to outsiders, except for Wes, of course, he once saved the boss's son from the lion's mouth."

The other three nodded when they heard this, and the Wes that Bei Ye said was one of their targets this time.

Wes, whose full name is Wes Carman, is a bounty hunter who was born in Texas, and when he was young, he went around picking up tasks with an elder in his family, and was active in the Middle East, Africa and other regions all year round.

He and Bei Ye met during a joint field expedition, although they were not very familiar with each other, but they had also contacted each other a few times, and they had cooperation experience.

Bounty hunters and mercenaries are different, the biggest difference they see is that mercenaries usually help whoever pays the most money, but bounty hunters will not participate in this illegal activity, although they will also help their employers fight, but they will always only stand on the side of the local government.

Therefore, the most common task of their team is to help the official forces to clean up bandits and drug lords and other things.

Jobs like Bei Ye's search for him today are occasionally accepted, but usually such an easy job is almost difficult to encounter.

The woman went to look for Wes now, and Bei Ye and the others were still enjoying breakfast at the table.

Hu Peng ate a large bowl full of cassava in three times and divided five by two, and then looked at the cauldron not far away, got up and prepared to serve a little more, and said with a lingering meaning:

"I didn't expect that the cassava here would be so delicious, it was really unexpected, I thought that the dishes here would be the type that is difficult to swallow, but today it made me impressed, no, no, no, I have to go and pretend to be a little."

Bei Ye put down the bowl at this time, stopped him and said: "Hu, it's better for us to eat less, there is still a long journey to go today, too much is not good, and ......"

As he spoke, he looked at the contents of the bowl again, as if he had thought of some bad memory, and said:

"And this local cassava contains more hydrocyanic acid and other substances, even if it is peeled and cooked, it is difficult to avoid trace toxicity, if you eat too much at one time, the body is not used to it, and it will make you vomit and pull at that time."

As soon as Hu Peng heard him say this, he immediately listened to his steps, and he didn't have the heart to have another bowl, and even Xiao Shun and Xun You, who were still eating on the side, couldn't help but stop the movements in their hands.

Bei Ye looked at them and said, "You two don't have to worry, this amount won't make you upset, don't be weak if you don't eat enough." ”

In this way, several people continued to enjoy today's breakfast, but Hu Peng on the side could only look at them now because he ate too fast.

Just as everyone had finished eating the cassava paste in their hands, the black woman who had gone to look for someone came back again, followed by a white man.

The white man is about 1.8 meters tall, wearing a short-sleeved vest, his figure is not strong, but under the backdrop of tight clothing, it can be seen that his muscles with explosive strength look very capable.

Obviously, this person should be Wes Carman.

Ten minutes later.

"Hahaha, Bell, I haven't seen you like this, it seems that you are still the same, and you are the only one who can bargain so hard in front of me. Okay, 10,000 meters, who made this mission so easy, I should have come out for a vacation. ”

Said a bounty hunter named Wes.

"But you know my rules, pay half of the deposit first, and the remaining half will be transferred to my account after the task is completed."

Bei Ye looked around and asked, "Weis, are you alone this time?" What about your squad? ”
