At half past five in the afternoon, the last girl who signed up finally signed the contract and left the office.

Everyone was finally relieved.

At this time, the office staff on the entire first floor shook their arms and kicked their legs, lying on the sofa or chair, or relaxing and enjoying, or sighing and sighing.

I never thought that one day, I could collect money and receive numbness, count the money until my hands cramped.

Looking at the room full of banknotes, everyone stared at each other and fell silent.

The sound of leather shoes stepping on the floor sounded, Jiang Yang walked in, and everyone hurriedly got up.

"Director Jiang."

Greeting in unison, Jiang Yang nodded slightly and waved his hand to let them rest.

Wu Daohong stepped forward with a piece of paper and read: "Director Jiang, the count has been completed, as of 5:40, a total of 1,153 people have signed up in South Wali, and we have collected a total of 57.65 million bolívars. Just ......"

Jiang Yang looked at Wu Daohong: "Just what?" ”

Wu Daohong took out a bundle of banknotes from the table and said: "Before the money counter bought it back, offices No. 2 and No. 4 received some counterfeit banknotes, totaling 210,000 bolívars. ”

"Got it."

Jiang Yang nodded: "When the people from the bank arrive, give them these banknotes to deal with." ”

Then he clapped his hands and looked at everyone: "In the future, if you call to inquire about registration, tell them to try to pay by card to avoid saving a large amount of cash." In addition, everyone has worked hard today, I will ask Wu Daohong to book a few tables of dinner by the sea, everyone relax! ”

After hearing this, everyone cheered, and instantly forgot the fatigue just now.

At this moment, Xiao Li of the office hurriedly ran in, looked at Jiang Yang and said, "Director Jiang, Director Liu can't be contacted!" ”

Jiang Yang was slightly stunned: "When did you start not being able to get in touch?" ”

Xiao Li said: "At half past ten this morning, Director Liu also talked to me on the phone, saying that he would be able to return to the office at about two o'clock this afternoon, and asked me to arrange the kitchen to cook some food, saying that the restaurant outside was too expensive, and they would not stop on the road at noon." ”

"At about half past one in the afternoon, I wanted to call to ask where Director Liu was so that I could arrange the kitchen to cook, but the phone couldn't get through at that time. It's almost five o'clock now, and they haven't come back yet, and the phone still can't get through. ”

Xiao Li said a little nervously: "Director Liu is a very cautious person, his phone will never be unreachable, according to his character, even if the mobile phone is out of battery, he will use other people's phones or public phones to say to the comrades in the office, I am also the first time to encounter this situation, some can't make up my mind, so I hurry up to report to you......"

Jiang Yang asked, "What about the rest of the technical team?" Can't get in touch either? Did Lao Su and the Lu family brothers make a phone call? ”

"Hit."

Xiao Li said anxiously: "The conditions of our office are limited, only Director Liu, Su Mande, Fan Qinghai and the intern Song Haige have mobile phones, and the others are not equipped with mobile phones from Venezuela. I called all four of their numbers, none of them could get through, and they were turned off. ”

The entire office was silent.

"It should be that the phone is out of battery, come out and say."

Jiang Yang thought about it, patted Xiao Li on the shoulder, and then took the lead out of the first floor and came to the courtyard.

Xiao Li nodded, and nervously trotted all the way behind.

Leaving a room full of people looking at each other.

Inside the hospital.

Jiang Yang's brows furrowed slightly, and he looked at Xiao Li and said, "Director Liu has been out for almost a week, where is their exploration site?" Why is the cycle so long? ”

"Lake Maracaibo."

Xiao Li said: "It is a sea area that connects to the edge of the Caribbean Sea at the end, and at the northern end is a strait of about 34 miles, with a mixture of saltwater and fresh water, and the salinity is abnormal, which is the so-called lagoon. Some time ago, the technical team received information that it was found to be a super-large-scale oil near Lake Maracaibo, and gave us a more specific coordinates. ”

"Lake Maracaibo is about 500 kilometers away from us in a straight line, and due to the construction of the road here, if you drive from South Wali to that coordinate, you need to drive at least nearly 800 kilometers."

"Director Liu, they are driving a pickup truck, the speed is not fast, it takes at least two days to go back and forth, plus the location of the field is strange, the exploration task is arduous, and the middle few days will be delayed."

Jiang Yang nodded slightly after hearing this, and asked, "800 kilometers away, since he can call you in the morning and ask you to prepare lunch, it means that they have already left the exploration site and are on the way." ”

"Could it be a signal problem?"

Jiang Yang asked suddenly.

Xiao Li shook his head: "Impossible, Director Jiang." From South Wali to the north, almost all of them are relatively developed cities in Venezuela, and the signal construction here is very complete, and it is absolutely impossible to lose the signal for several hours in a row. ”

Listening to Xiao Li's answer, Jiang Yang took out his mobile phone and dialed Liu Zhendong.

There was a busy sound, and the phone really couldn't get through.

Turning his head to look at the sunset outside, it was already half set.

The sound of a car sounded outside the door.

Jiang Yang looked up and saw that it was a huge cash truck.

When the car stopped, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes got down, and then four heavily armed soldiers came down from behind.

After seeing that Jiang Yang was from Huaxia, the middle-aged man smiled slightly, generously stepped forward to shake hands and take the initiative to say hello.

"Hello."

Perhaps Wu Daohong told the bank that the unit of cooperation this time was Huaxia, so the bank also thoughtfully sent a staff member who knew Chinese.

Jiang Yang politely stretched out his hand and shook it, and then asked Wu Daohong to take them in to count the banknotes.

"Jingle bell ......!"

The landline in Jiang Yang's office rang suddenly.

Quickly returned, and found Si Mu standing at his desk, looking at the phone that kept ringing and hesitating.

Seeing Jiang Yang coming in, he turned his head to look at Jiang Yang.

Jiang Yang stretched out his hand and pointed to the phone, motioning for Si Mu to answer.

Si Mu nodded, pressed the speakerphone, and said softly in Spanish: "Hello, this is the Foreign Economic Office of the Huaxia Embassy in Venezuela and the Office of Director Jiang Yang." ”

The man's rough voice came from the phone, and he said in rusty and awkward Chinese: "Let, Jiang Yang, answer the phone." ”

Si Mu looked at Jiang Yang.

Jiang Yang walked to the desk and put the earpiece to his ear: "I'm Jiang Yang." ”

There was a slight silence on the phone, and the man laughed strangely: "Director Jiang Yang, I heard that you seized our vehicles and firearms. ”

Jiang Yang nodded: "That's right, the things are here." ”

The man in the earpiece said in a low voice: "Unfortunately, the people from your office are also here with me. ”

The other end of the phone was very noisy, and another man's voice rang irritably: "Jiang Yang! Call Mr. Pi and leave me alone! I don't believe they are so lawless that the country will leave it alone!! ”

As soon as the words fell, the sound of metal colliding, the screams of men and women sounded.

With a muffled snort, the man continued, "I admire, yours, backbone. However, the sanctity of 'suwana' is not to be desecrated. You have broken the rules of 'suwana' and you deserve to be punished. ”

"I, on behalf of the 'Suwana' Councillor Alec's instructions, formally, give you a notice."

"Prepare 2,000,000 bolívars, along with the vehicles and firearms you have paid, and send them to the Silinda terminal, Hatch 2 in the north. At ten o'clock tonight, you, with money and materials, will replace people. ”

Listening to the voice on the phone, Jiang Yang suddenly understood everything in his heart.

With a cold look in his eyes and a smile, he said into the phone: "No problem, wait for me." ”
