Chapter 135: Seeing Flowers in the Mist

What the specific secret, Ye Lin didn't say, just said that he soon had no need to keep it secret. Zhao Li had a lot of speculation, and it was certain that it must be related to Jin Wuxing.

After chatting with Yelin, Zhao Li felt a little relieved. Especially since the first day of entering the biochemical laboratory, Ye Lin has never been in. It's as if all the work inside has been done and you don't have to go in anymore.

That's fine, at least Zhao Li doesn't have to be afraid all the time for the time being, for fear that his base will one day suddenly become a hell on earth or a colony of biochemical zombies.

After settling into the night, the first thing Zhao Li did was to thoroughly investigate what James was doing here and his recent actions. If you want to know the purpose of the night coming, you can only investigate it from this side.

The military's intelligence department can be said to be a mess on the edge planet, Zhao Li has never had any hope in them, if he wants to get really effective information, it is better to find Kang Hongyuan.

What Zhao Li has always been curious about is, how did Kang Hongyuan use his outside power? According to the report of the monitoring room of the base, there has never been a radio wave in the non-military frequency band, and Kang Hongyuan has never been seen walking out of the barracks, but he can always get what he wants at the right time, this skill makes Zhao Li very worried and extremely envious at the same time.

For a few days in a row, it seems that whether it is Sanders, Night Come, or even Kang Hongyuan, several people have been behaving in a proper manner, and even Zhao Li can't pick out what is wrong with them. And what reassures Zhao Li the most is that Yelin has always been fine and trained with the soldiers, and never caused trouble.

With the presence of the night, Zhao Li and the soldiers had another aspect to learn. The knowledge of biochemical protection and some simple biological and chemical weapons also made Yelin another supernumerary instructor after Sanders.

Training with the soldiers every day, Zhao Li found that Ye Lin was also a standard soldier. Not only are all military movements very standard, but even some skills that only special soldiers can access, he is very familiar with.

Zhao Li knew that Ye Lin was a fighting master, but he never thought that he still had such a side. When asked casually during the break, Yelin replied very casually: "It's not strange, I'm a soldier first, and then a military biochemist." ”

This answer made Zhao Li interested in Ye Lin again: "Which unit did you serve in before?" ”

"Space Marines, I didn't expect that!" Yelin was very proud, and when he was interested, he even rolled up his sleeves and let Zhao Li see the unique tattoo on his arm.

"Huh? Have you served in Blue Shield? This time, it was Sanders who made a surprised voice. When I saw that sign, I guess I was as surprised as Zhao Li. This guy at night didn't communicate much with everyone, he didn't show the mountains and water, and he was really a master.

"What? Not convinced? Yelin and Sanders were also nodding friends, and they were very happy to be surprised by him, and there was a slight hint of provocation.

"No, there's nothing unconvincing about that." Sanders shook his head and pouted: "Among the students I have taught, there are at least thirty Blue Shields, and two of them are still Blue Shield captains, so I have seen a lot." You're just an ordinary player at best. ”

I didn't expect Sanders's original identity to be so strong, and he had nothing to say when he landed at night. Although he may be able to take down Sanders easily than hand-to-hand combat, after all, Sanders's identity as a firearms expert is enough to afford the status of an instructor.

The two of them quickly chatted about some topics about the blue shield, and the night was obviously much happier and more talkative than when they were in prison, or, it was really the result of not having to keep any secrets and relaxing their minds!

"What has James been up to lately?" Seeing Kang Hongyuan, Zhao Li couldn't wait to ask.

"It's weird!" Kang Hongyuan also frowned, as if he couldn't guess James's movements: "It seems that after receiving the armed forces of the militia, he began to reduce his territory, but further consolidate it. And a large number of shipments have been made recently, as if they are raising funds. ”

"Raising funds? What is he going to do? Hearing this information, Zhao Li was also a little puzzled. James is a flying expert, yes, and he is also a ruthless person, otherwise it would be impossible to easily control a force of the Golden Five Stars. The problem is that his actions are too bizarre and a little confusing: "When did it start?" ”

"After eliminating the Black Prison with you, I thought he would take the opportunity to expand his territory, after all, he also participated in the operation." The news that Kang Hongyuan got was not very accurate: "From that time on, he frantically grabbed a piece of drug cultivation land, and then began to ship a large number of goods privately. ”

"Will the Tiger and the Black Dragon not interfere?" In this place of Golden Five Stars, there are still some unspoken rules. For example, you can't change the price of drugs at will, you can't ship them privately, etc., isn't James breaking the rules by doing this?

"Thanks to you, the Tigers and the Black Dragon Society are scrambling to take over the territory of the Black Prison, and they don't have time to take care of too much. And James has no intention of grabbing the territory, which is equivalent to giving away the interests of the Black Prison, and the Tigers and the Black Dragon Club will also accept his feelings, not to mention the extra shipments in a quarter, even if they directly ask them for cash, they will also give it. Kang Hongyuan was also puzzled in the face of this kind of thing that he couldn't figure out: "Does he just want to get some money?" Or what do you want to do later? ”

Although Kang Hongyuan didn't know why Zhao Li suddenly wanted to investigate James, he could be sure that it was related to the arrival of the night. To be honest, Yelin's performance in prison was really not that active, and he and Kang Hongyuan were only nodding friends, and there was really no way to determine what they were going to do.

Zhao Li wasn't in a hurry, anyway, Ye Lin had already said that the secret would be revealed soon. However, Kang Hongyuan was different, he would never allow a situation beyond his control to appear, so he used all his manpower to start an investigation.

It seemed that James's recent actions could not be hidden from anyone, and soon a few days later, Kang Hongyuan got a note in his hand recording James's recent whereabouts, which listed in detail the recent movements of James and the militia he led.

"Buying land?" Kang Hongyuan was dumbfounded when he saw an extremely unusual activity above at a glance.

"What land to buy? Does Golden Five Star still need to buy land? Zhao Li didn't see the specific entry, but the purchase of land in Kang Hongyuan's mouth suddenly made him a little unacceptable: "Who to buy?" Golden five-star municipal axe? ”

I can't help but say that the two of them were a little unacceptable when they saw the news, Jin Wuxing is also a well-known drug production and trafficking area in the marginal area, and here, the municipal axe's control of the land is absolutely a dead letter. James isn't stupid, isn't he, this kind of place where you have a place where you have a gun and you still need to spend money to buy land? It's better to spend money on arms!

"Seems to be!" Kang Hongyuan looked at the intelligence and answered Zhao Li's question affirmatively. The two of them were a little dumbfounded, James actually bought land from the Golden Five-Star Municipal Axe, and he really couldn't see through what this move was.

"Which piece of land did he buy?" Suddenly, Zhao Li remembered what Sanders had said about interstellar reclamation, wouldn't he buy the underground, what scarce resources or massive mineral deposits there were?

"I don't have that specific information, but you can go to the municipal axe and ask." A slip of paper is far from a record of so much information. Kang Hongyuan can only find a way from other places.

The detailed map of the Golden Five Star region opened, and Zhao Li began to mark the distribution of mineral deposits marked during the interstellar reclamation of the year. These materials were extracted from the military's database by Zhao Li through General Lucas's special line. It is undeniable that before the reclamation, the military was definitely much richer than the civilian population.

iron ore, and an associated perovskite. That's the only resource here. However, the area of that iron ore is not very large, but it only occupies less than five percent of the area of the Golden Five Star Region. In the record, almost all of these deposits have been mined, and even the associated titanium ore has been exhausted. There is only a small area of iron ore that is scattered and difficult to mine, but there is still a small ironworks in the area that are struggling to operate.

Apart from that, there is nothing else like the rainforest and wood on the ground. Moreover, before the reclamation, there was no life here, so there would never be any oil and coal resources. Zhao Li and Kang Hongyuan couldn't see anything, they really couldn't figure out what else was worth investing in, which could make James spend so much money. According to intelligence, James spent almost hundreds of millions to buy that piece of land. This money is already the vast majority of what he has left after buying arms and other expenses. Is he going to be in the timber business?

Zhao Li intuitively thought that there must be something wrong with it. It's just that it seems a little too late to interrupt the deal. Because the intelligence has already stated that the land, at this time, the Golden Five Star Municipal Axe has issued a legal certificate, indicating that the land and all the resources on the land have completely belonged to James, and the transaction has also been notarized.

For the Golden Five-Star Municipal Axe, how could such a good thing be refused if there was such a big man who paid such a large sum of money just for a piece of land that the political axe could not control. But this thing seems too abnormal, everything can only wait for James to uncover the mystery, and no matter how much you guess now, you can't be sure what James has in mind.

The next state of affairs made Zhao Li even more incomprehensible, and James purchased a batch of logging equipment. This kind of equipment is not considered controlled equipment in the fringe areas, it is found on almost every planet, and it can easily be transported to the location specified by James.

Immediately, James and his men began to cut trees on the land that belonged to him. Most of James' men put down their guns, started their machinery, and went to work. Only a small number of people continued to clear their inventory, and as far as Kang Hongyuan knew, James even sold the last batch of drugs to the Tiger and the Black Dragon Society at a price five percent lower than the price of the Golden Five-Star Agreement. The deal has been negotiated, and it is only necessary to wait for the final payment and delivery.

Can't guess, really can't guess, don't make drugs, do those militias want to start a timber business? How many people can be fed on the fringes? Wood is everywhere, and who are you selling it to?

Equally confused, it is estimated that there are also the LTTE and the Black Dragon Society, the local militia that was originally their rival, but after James mastered it, they actually quit the drug business. This was so obvious that both organizations were overwhelmed. But one less competitor is happier for them.

James: What do they live on? Countless people are puzzled by this question, but no one will know until the mystery is revealed. Zhao Li always hoped to get some information from Ye Lin's mouth, but Ye Lin kept smiling and shaking his head, and actually began to revert to the surname of the prison that didn't talk much. It seems that he intends to keep it a secret.

But such actions also made Zhao Li sure that James's series of actions were all related to the night coming.

Kang Hongyuan seems to be very busy these days. Of course, it's not that I see him busy with this and that, but often sitting alone, looking at the sky, and thinking quietly. Although he had often basked in the sun in the barracks like this before, this time Zhao Li could feel a significant difference, it was likely that Kang Hongyuan was deciding on a matter, and this matter was likely to be very important.

Only Sanders seemed to be having a good time with the soldiers, and didn't have so many ideas. Under his constant supervision, the level of firearms of the soldiers has almost improved by leaps and bounds. It is estimated that even those people did not think that the seemingly simple standard weapons could actually play such a big role in a certain situation.

With this group of soldiers trained by Sanders, Zhao Li is already full of confidence in the next inevitable military operation to eradicate the other two forces. But the above has not allowed me to do it, I don't know what kind of considerations.

After more than half a month of mechanical logging, an area of about the same size has been carved out of James's land. Then, James began to work on the construction work. Looking at him, it seems that he wants to build a high-specification factory, but he doesn't know what to produce.

If he really withdrew from the drug industry, and then ran the industry in a proper manner, Zhao Li would be the first to applaud. Those citizens of the Golden Five Star may also celebrate with a crown. There is no way around where drugs are rampant, but no one wants to live in an area where drugs are rampant.

Could it be that Nightcrawler and James have found a way to improve the situation? This is a good thing, why is it mysterious and would rather go to jail than reveal it?

In short, James's recent series of activities have made Zhao Li's head incomparable. I can't go to James right away, grab him by the collar, and make him tell him what he's going to do.

Just when Zhao Li was confused by James and Yelin, Kang Hongyuan suddenly appeared in front of Zhao Li.

"What? Do you want to go public and run for mayor with a gold five-star? Zhao Li looked at Kang Hongyuan, who seemed to have decided something, and looked surprised: "Are you crazy?" ”
