Chapter 15 Trading
Jiya never thought that she would be rescued in such a way.
Or, in fact, she didn't think that she could be rescued herself.
During the time she was kidnapped, she negotiated with the leader of the gang of kidnappers I don't know how many times, and she also confessed her identity as a "reporter", but such an exchange was obviously meaningless, and the other party had no intention of letting him go at all.
Yes, who cares about the life or death of a freelance journalist with no background, no resources, and not even money?
Instead of letting it out to increase the risk for yourself, it is better to raise it and be a star rage, and kill it when you get tired of playing.
After all, this land is already full of criminal acts related to human trafficking, and as long as it is not the important people who die, it is impossible to attract any attention at all.
She was desperate for a while, and she accepted her end for a while.
There are regrets, but they are not so heavy.
In the final analysis, this is all your own choice---- what noble purpose do you have? It's just a desperate reporter who plans to come here to take a risk and gamble, make a big news and turn over.
When I set off, didn't I think that it didn't matter if I died?
And after arriving here, his situation has indeed been sliding towards the side of "death".
But she never expected that this balance of death, which had been tilted to the end, would be re-corrected in such a way.
It's a stroke of luck...... They didn't come to save themselves, they just saved themselves.
Jiya took a deep breath, and then, she spoke:
"Thank you for saving my life."
The other three couldn't understand her English, Chen Shen could understand, but he didn't bother to answer.
He hadn't planned to have anything to do with this woman, and if Chesri needed her, he could have asked them for money.
The scene was a little awkward for a while, and the woman was stunned for a moment, and suddenly spoke again, and said in jerky Burmese:
"Thank you."
It's okay now, everyone doesn't understand.
Seeing that the two people sandwiched between her showed puzzled expressions, Ji Ya couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
She wanted to say something, but Chen Shen in the front seat spoke at this time.
"We're not here to save you, but there are people who want to save you."
"If you want to thank us, tell me who you are and how it happened."
The reason why we need to understand this information is essentially to have a certain initiative in the follow-up negotiations with Chesri---- how can we not know about our own goods?
In case this woman is the daughter of a wealthy family, it shouldn't be too much to ask for eighteen million for herself, right?
Finally hearing the familiar English, Ji Ya's expression immediately became active.
She couldn't wait to introduce herself and her experience, but Chen Shen's expression visibly became disappointed.
Good fellow, another poor ghost!
Where did you get so many poor ghosts?!
He turned his head again with little interest, interrupting Jiya's rambling.
"Don't tell me, now you tell me an accurate number, how much are you worth?"
Jiya was stunned.
That's really a hard question to answer...... Theoretically, I'm not worth a dime.
Even the message that Chen Shen just said that "someone wants to save themselves" was the first time she heard it......
"I ...... I probably don't have much to repay you guys, but trust me, I'll be an influential journalist in no time when I leave here! ”
"I'm going to write the best investigative report, I'm going to be a freelance star, and then I'm going to give you more than money can measure!"
"You're mercenaries, aren't you? I can give you more positive coverage, so that you can gain more fame and respect in this industry......"
"We don't need to!"
Chen Shen immediately interrupted Ji Ya.
As a mercenary group, fame is not a bad thing, but if the growth of fame exceeds the growth of strength, it is not a good thing......
Noticing Chen Shen's attitude, Ji Ya shut up in amusement.
But before she could be quiet for a few minutes, she suddenly asked:
"Why did you kill that woman?"
Why?
Because she's in league with the bandits, because she's not telling the truth, because she's clearly the guard who is spying on you?
Chen Shen could say the correct answer, but he just replied indifferently:
"There is no law here, I can kill whoever I want."
“....... And for good reason. ”
Ji Ya felt the threat in Chen Shen's words, and finally shut up.
She didn't ask Chen Shen any more questions, and she didn't even care who he was going to give herself to.
It can't be worse than that dungeon anyway, whatever?
Several people in the car fell silent, and after half an hour, the boys entered Monka.
Chen Shen did not rush back to the hotel---- the current situation, it was no longer suitable for permanent residence.
He asked Bao Qi to park on the side of the road, then found the pay phone and called the contact information left by Captain Chesri.
"Sir, I've got the man you want."
He said bluntly.
"It's coming soon. By the way, just call me a jackal. ”
"Okay, I'll be waiting for you at the gate of the Ship City Hospital, Mr. Jackal."
Hanging up the phone, Chen Shen waited for 10 minutes, and the jackal in Chesli rushed to Chuancheng Hospital.
As soon as they met, he took the initiative to stretch out his hand to Chen Shen.
"A great success! Welcome back! What should I call you? ”
Chen Shen glanced at the words "ship town" on the boat city hospital, and replied casually:
"Just call me a shipwreck."
"Cool name---- that woman, did you bring it?"
The jackal was always smiling, which made him less of an elite warrior and more of a businessman.
"In the car, make an offer, Mr. Jackal."
"She's not worth anything...... She's just a journalist with no future, and we just want to save her....... But you brought it back, I think...... $5,000, how's that? ”
The jackal spread out his hands, with a look of cunning characteristic of the Thai on his face.
"50,000."
Chen Shen said calmly.
"Then you can kill her, or raise her to be a star wrath, or sell it to a rich man who needs organs, whatever you want."
"But organ matching is not easy to do, and she can't sell 50,000."
The price was high, and Chen Shen sighed secretly.
"But you want her to be useful, I don't care what you want her to do, $30,000, that's reasonable, right?"
"No, she's useful, but it's not useful enough to be worth $30,000......."
"30,000 US dollars, she can be rescued by you, we haven't seen her, we just laid down the Wanhe Nai camp."
As soon as these words came out, the jackal's expression finally changed.
He seems to be carefully weighing the pros and cons.
After thinking for a few seconds, he finally spoke:
"We don't really have that much cash...... You know, it's just a deal between us, not a deal between you and Chesley. ”
"Well, you can go to our warehouse and pick up some of the equipment you need, huh...... Level 3 body armor and helmets, Armor Express, give you four sets, how about it? ”
"You know, it's very expensive in the whole of northern Myanmar......"
"Level 4 body armor with hard bulletproof inserts."
Chen Shen bargained again.
"Then there are only two sets, and we don't have helmets, so we can't use them ourselves."
"Four sets, with helmets, there are at least 12 of you, it's impossible to have no reserves, wouldn't it be good to go back and report the damage?"
“....... You're from Huaxia, right? Deal. ”
The jackal's hand shook hard, and a deal was struck.
Chen Shen simply made a gesture to signal Shi Dakai to let him go, and looking at his movements, the jackal asked curiously:
"Don't you really want to know what's the story behind her? Maybe her story...... Worth a lot of money, isn't it? ”
Chen Shen smiled, he shook his head, and replied:
"Mr. Jackal, 4 sets of Armor Express's Level 4 body armor plus bulletproof inserts can be worth at least $80,000 on the black market, isn't that worth enough?"
"No matter how valuable her story is, it is not as valuable as my life."
