"So, I'm going to see how our people are doing first!"

"Of course, of course, you can rest assured that we, as regular military contractors, will never do anything about persecuting prisoners of war!"

Anatoly was then blindfolded, and after a long circle around the camp, he drove around the camp to the construction site a few kilometers away.

Shepard was going to build a four-story CQB training building here, so most of the prisoners worked here, including the captured Ivanov, who was sweating in the sun bare-chested when Anatoly saw them.

"Go and bring the Russians!"

A heavily armed PMC immediately walked into the crowd and led Ivanov out.

When he saw the familiar comrades, Ivanov, who had not been unkempt because of several weeks of labor reform, immediately turned red, and Anatoly didn't know what to say when he saw the originally white and pure Ivanov turn bronze, at least it seemed that there was nothing wrong with this guy except that he had been dyed and thinned.

"I'm here to take you home, Ivanov!"

"Yes, I know!"

"You didn't hurt anything, did you?"

Anatoly didn't ask about it, but asked Ivanov about his grievances, as an officer, he didn't enjoy any officer treatment here, but was asked to do more work than Uncle Black, otherwise there would be no food, the three of them could get half a chicken every week, but he only had chicken paws to gnaw, and once he protested, the guards were still there.

"What's wrong with the big brother, Uncle Hei has been hungry for hundreds of years, it's okay if you're hungry!"

"Uh, they didn't interrogate you, they didn't torture you?"

"Nope!"

"That's good!"

Anatoly nodded, and then returned to the jeep.

"If you endure it any longer, it won't be long before you can regain your freedom!"

After confirming that Shepard was not lying, Anatoly returned to the camp and prepared for a detailed exchange about the release of the captives.

Then, he was stunned by Shepard's words.

"What, the process? What is the process of exchanging money for people, you send the money, and you take the people away, what else is the process? You're not German, are you? ”

Anatoly is a little confused, everyone is a peer, then you should go through the process, pick a neutral zone, pay the money with one hand and deliver the goods with the other, and then go back to their respective homes, what is your process, kidnap and pay the ransom?

"No, how do I know if you're going to go back on your word?"

"Then how do I know if you're going to give counterfeit money?"

"You can bring a professional to inspect it!"

Anatoly was confused at the moment, whether the other party was a CIA colleague or not, how could he seem so amateurish and layman? Could it be that these guys are acting?

"I think you guys are really insincere, since that's the case, there's no need to talk about it, you go, let those guys continue to work and reform here, I'm still waiting for the watermelon field to be opened!"

"Wait, so let's put half of the people first, and then after confirming the authenticity of the money, then put the remaining half?"

"Then you have to stay here, too!"

"Of course, so, how are you going to release people?"

"Out of the doorway?"

"What are you kidding?"

Anatoly is almost angry, it is almost 600 kilometers from the camp to the guerrilla camp in Uganda, these people have no food or drink, how can they go back?

"You must get people out of your zone of actual control!"

"In that case, you will have to pay for the fuel and freight, and you will have to pay more!"

"You ........."

Anatoly was very sure at the moment that their peers must have come to fight the autumn breeze, otherwise why would these guys only mention money and nothing else, it would be better to only mention money!

"Yes, but I have to choose the place!"

"What's more, what if you set up an ambush?"

Shepard shook his head, he hadn't forgotten the shot in the ass.

"Then what to do, you don't worry about me, I don't believe you! It's hard for us to do that! ”

"Then it's better to drive away by yourself, and when they are safe, inform you, and I will release the rest of the people!"

"Okay, then it's decided?"

"It's set, here's the list, take a look!"

Shepard then handed the other party a list, which was the daily expenses of all the prisoners, as well as the fuel fee he added, according to 5,000 yuan for each black uncle, 10,000 yuan for non-commissioned officers, 50,000 yuan for officers, and 200,000 yuan for Ivanov and his Cuban friends, the final price was 1,687,004, and Shepard also intimately wiped a zero for the other party, a total of 1.7 million yuan!

After reading this figure, Anatoly is not surprised, the KGB family has a big business, there is no shortage of this money, as long as the matter is solved, it will be easy to do!

With the list in hand, he immediately left the Shadow Company's premises, he thought he would be followed, but he didn't expect the other party to ignore him at all, let him wander the street for three hours, he didn't understand the other party's thoughts at all, and finally disappeared quietly on the street, and when Shepard saw him again, it was four days later.

Still alone, Anatoly arrived at the Shadow Company's camp.

"The money is out there, but what about the people I want?"

Shepard pointed to the phone on the desk, on the other end of the line was Ivanov's Cuban brothers, both of whom had been ambushed in the exploration camp, which had been abandoned but the phone lines were still working.

"Sir, we're safe here, I've surveyed the surrounding area, it's safe!"

"How many of you are there?"

"Everyone is here, except for Ivanov! We've been left here for days! ”

After listening to the call, Anatoly suddenly felt a lot more relieved, he was really afraid that these peers would not keep their promises.

"People, I let it go, so, what about the money?"

"Let your people go to the big tree opposite the gate and find a log buried in the earth, the money is there!"

Anatoly told him the truth, and then, before he could react, a black hood was placed over his head, and his mouth was gagged.

Anatoly's newly lowered heart hung in the air again, and he tried to resist, but several pairs of large hands pressed him hard, and then he was tied up and sent to the helicopter.

Shepard, on the other hand, waited for the banking expert he had brought in from Kinshasa to confirm the authenticity of the ransom, and it took him several hours to confirm the authenticity of the banknote.

"One million seven million!"

After sending off the expert, Shepard was content to pick up a roll of banknotes and flipped it in his hand.

"Lao Pu, send that guy on his way!"

Anatoly, whose ears were not gagged, suddenly felt like ashes, these damn guys!
