Chapter 650: Main Business and Part-time Job
Vladimir's answer actually surprised Cheng Yu a little.
Originally, he just thought that Vladimir's knowledge of this town should help him and Lao Dapeng find a way out.
But I didn't expect Vladimir to go all the way and directly send himself and Lao Dapeng out of Russia.
And this is undoubtedly more beneficial to Cheng Yu.
It's no wonder that Vladimir quoted a price of 100,000 rubles, but this is actually less than 10,000 soft girl coins, and Cheng Yu can't ask for it if he spends this amount of money to leave this dangerous place.
After Cheng Yu pondered for a while, he asked: "My friend has no legal procedures to enter Russia, and he doesn't even have a passport, so can you still send him out of the country because of some special reasons that I can't tell you clearly?"
Vladimir laughed and said: "The border is full of my acquaintances, and this is not a problem at all." When you get to Babushkin, you buy two cases of wine, and let's just bring them to the brothers on the border. ”
At the same time, Cheng Yu thought that he had entered Russia through formal procedures, and if he left like this, the Russian Immigration Bureau would sooner or later find out that a Chinese tourist whose visa had expired but was still "stranded" in China, which might cause trouble for Cheng Yu to go abroad in the future.
So he asked, "But I need legal formalities to leave the country, and legal ......."
Before he finished speaking, Vladimir smiled and said: "That's even more problem, my friend will help you get the formalities for entering and exiting the customs, as well as the visa for Mongolia."
If there is any problem, it is your friend, after he enters the territory of Mongolia, how to enter your China, you have to figure out how to do it.
But as far as I know, it's not difficult, and there are quite a few bazaars on the border between Mongolia and your China, where you can spend a little money and there is always a way to get him back home. ”
Regarding this point, Cheng Yu was the least worried, he was originally going to find a way to get Lao Dapeng back to China from Russia, and he had already thought of ways and means, which was the same as the way Andrevich got him to Russia.
So Cheng Yu nodded and said, "But now I don't have so many rubles on me, and I don't have that much other currencies." This requires you to send us to Babushkin first, where I will exchange cash for you. ”
"Don't be so troublesome, I have WeChat, I also have Alipay, you can transfer money from WeChat Alipay. Whether it's soft girl coins, rubles, or dollars, I can accept it. ”
Cheng Yu was speechless, he really didn't expect that a guy who has basically never left Russia in his life would have WeChat and Alipay, it seems that he really does business with Chinese tourists.
Immediately scanned Vladimir's WeChat payment QR code, Cheng Yu directly transferred 10,000 soft sister coins, according to the exchange rate, this has already exceeded 100,000 rubles.
"Haha, thank you boss. When are we leaving?" Vladimir looked at the extra 10,000 soft girl coins in his WeChat wallet, and smiled a little doglegged.
"Without further ado, sooner or later, let's go now. ”
"No problem. Vladimir restarted the car and sped away in the direction of the lake.
But Lao Dapeng sat in the back seat and looked very nervous, but he didn't dare to say anything, just kept looking at Cheng Yu, and couldn't help it, so he stretched out his hand and gently pestle Cheng Yu's arm.
Cheng Yu turned his head and saw Lao Dapeng's expression of concern for the country and the people, and knew what he was thinking.
He smiled bitterly and said, "Now, we don't have a choice, there are just two of us, and the other party doesn't even know how many people there are."
Also, they were all carrying weapons, and I don't think they mind revealing that.
In other words, as long as they find us, they should really dare to shoot.
Now, Vladimir is our only hope, and we can only choose to believe in him for the time being. ”
Lao Dapeng actually understands this truth, and in the whole matter, he has the least right to speak. Those people were obviously coming for him, and if Cheng Yu hadn't been there to bring him back to China, he wouldn't have put himself in danger.
But he just feels uneasy, this Vladimir, just for more than 10,000 soft sister coins, which really makes people feel a little unreliable.
Vladimir whistled easily, did not explain anything, and led the two of them all the way in the direction of the lake.
Soon, the car arrived at the lake.
The speed of the car slowed down significantly, and Vladimir walked slowly along the slippery road of the lake, which was almost as fast as a person walking faster.
"It's all tidal flats, and the ground is relatively soft, so you can only drive slowly through it, and then you can drive to the edge of the trees in front of you. Vladimir also explained.
Cheng Yu nodded secretly, looked back at Lao Dapeng deeply, meaning to let him calm down a little, but Cheng Yu himself also strengthened his vigilance, although he said that this was his only choice at the moment, but they didn't know enough about Vladimir after all, and it was only a little more than half an hour since they dealt with each other, and the characteristics shown by Vladimir were very complicated, and Cheng Yu had to be more cautious.
His hand was already on one of the pistols pinned to his waist, which made Cheng Yu's body appear a little stiff.
After about ten minutes, the car finally drove to the edge of the woods that Vladimir said, and without him opening his mouth, Cheng Yu and Lao Dapeng could also feel that the road under the car had become much stronger.
It was dark ahead, Vladimir didn't even have his headlights on, and it wasn't too far from the town's dock, so the front lights could really reveal their presence.
When the signs of the branches were clearly visible on both sides of the window, Vladimir finally turned on the headlights.
"You can't see it here, the woods will protect us. Vladimir explained again.
Of course, the speed of the car cannot be as fast as on the road, but it is several times faster than when it was driving on the lake beach just now.
After driving for about five minutes, Cheng Yu saw an open area of about three or four acres of land in front of him by the front lights of the car.
The water ahead was misty, and it was clear that the open area was on the edge of the lake.
In the mist, traces of a small wooden house could be faintly seen.
As soon as he drove out of the woods, Vladimir hit the brakes.
"My friends, let's get off here. ”
Vladimir jumped out of the car first and waited for Cheng Yu and Lao Dapeng.
After Cheng Yu opened the car door, he first confirmed that there was nothing wrong with his feet outside the car door before getting out of the car.
"What kind of place is this?" Cheng Yu was indeed a little surprised that there would be such a clearing surrounded by trees by the lake.
"This used to be a dock for an underground gambling ship, and when I was a sheriff, I gave them an idea to keep a tight control over the size of their profits so that they would not be punished.
Of course, this is only on the surface, the really big bets are all private and will not be carried out in the casino.
After that, this became my territory, and after a long time, the big guys forgot about this place.
Hardly anyone knew that I had built a log cabin here, and I would come and stay here at my leisure. ”
Cheng Yu followed Vladimir towards the cabin, and when he got closer, he saw a lot more clearly.
After looking at the surrounding environment, Cheng Yu said: "It seems that in addition to black taxis, as well as all kinds of clever words to deceive tourists to make money, you have also been doing a living by helping people run away, right?"
Thinking of Vladimir's words before, Cheng Yu easily thought that this guy was only afraid that he would make a living by helping people run away for a long time.
It is only about 200 kilometers away from the Russian-Mongolian border, and after crossing Lake Baikal, there are only more than 100 kilometers left.
According to him, he has been a police officer for fifteen years, and he has been expelled from the police force for several years, if not twenty years, at least seventeen or eighteen years.
For such a long time, his comrades-in-arms should basically retire, but he still calls those soldiers on the border brothers, which shows that he has kept in touch with those people for a long time over the years.
Combined with the docks and boats, there is no doubt that Vladimir often helped people leave here and enter Mongolia.
To put it bluntly, black rentals can only be regarded as Vladimir's side hustle, and this is probably his main business.
But Vladimir will never admit this.
He immediately denied it: "What nonsense, how can I do that kind of business." This gentleman, if it weren't for the fact that you are generous, and that your opponent is less like a good person, I would never have done you this favor. ”
"If you want to say that the fee you charged me to cross the border this time is one of the lowest in your career, I might believe it, but if you want to say that it's not your main business, do you think I'll believe it?"
"You are a person, you really bite Lu Dongbin......
"Hey, you know a lot of idioms. Cheng Yu laughed angrily.
"Alright, don't worry about these unimportant things, come on board with me. ”
The boat is a very ordinary medium-sized fishing boat, which can accommodate about a dozen people when fully loaded.
After Vladimir took Cheng Yu and Lao Dapeng onto the ship, Cheng Yu observed the power system of the ship, which actually used electricity.
Fishing boats that use electricity are rare, as they are usually not very fast and have a problematic range, especially on lakes with a width of more than 40 kilometers.
But at the same time, the electric system also has the advantage that there is no sound, and by the cover of night, it can reach the other side of Lake Baikal completely quietly.
"Silent electric boat, do you dare to say that you don't often do this kind of business?" Cheng Yu complained speechlessly, motioning for Lao Dapeng to get into the cabin.
Vladimir laughed dryly twice and said: "If you don't see through it, it's still a good friend!"
Then, he turned on the boat's power system, and the boat slowly left the shore.
"Is there enough power for your ship?" Cheng Yu asked casually, but he actually had nothing to say.
"The maximum range is more than 150 nautical miles. Vladimir said proudly.
"Wouldn't the weight of your ship be amazing if it was so refitted?"
"That's no way, after all, you're going to do business on the lake, and if you stop in the lake, can you paddle ashore by hand?"
Cheng Yu laughed and said, "Look, you finally admit it, right?"
Vladimir waved his hand angrily and said: "In short, you can rest assured, I absolutely guarantee to send you to the other side." In order to ensure endurance, my boat, which was supposed to be fully loaded with eighteen people, can now only hold a maximum of six people. ”
Cheng Yu nodded and said, "Well, then your loss is really big enough, get rid of yourself, you can only send five people away in one trip." ”
Vladimir said very casually: "That's not true, after all, after arriving on the other side, only five or six people can sit in the car." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, he was stunned, knowing that he had completely leaked his mouth.
