PS: More than a dozen subscriptions, you can still get recommendations, and the editor treats me well!
"As soon as Lei Rui dies, the city will be in chaos, and he will inevitably fall into the battle for territory. The nearby forces are afraid that they all want to take Zhanshi as their own, let's wait here for a few days, and when someone completely occupies Zhanshi and the situation stabilizes, we will buy Yuansheng Island from him. As soon as he left the vicinity of the barracks, Xu Mo said.
Fang Bing had no objections. The two walked around the neighborhood a few times, ate something, and then returned to the yacht to wait in peace.
It's just that after two or three days in a row, there was no movement, and the news of General Lei Rui's death was obviously deliberately concealed.
Xu Mo came out of the yacht and looked at the port, "I don't know who Lu Dao concealed the news, we can't accompany him to spend so much, it seems that we have to find a way to push it." ”
Fang Bing walked up to him and asked, "Brother, what are you going to do?"
Xu Modao: "Check the contact information of several nearby forces and inform them of the news." ”
Of course, they can't find the contact information of several important people in the vicinity, but as long as they find out the contact information of some institutions under these forces, it will be enough to tell the news of General Lei Rui's death, and naturally someone will report it to Lu Shang.
The news spread out, and Nanni was in chaos that day, and those who wanted to block the news could no longer block it, so it was on the news on the same day, and all parties were eyeing the powerful forces, all staring at the range of power left by General Lei Rui.
Then came the compromise of the parties and the division of the territory. Who will eventually occupy these territories, Xu Mo doesn't care. He only cares about whose hands he wants to buy when he buys Yuansheng Island.
Another three or four days passed. The division of the territory is complete. Fang Bing checked, "Brother, Yuansheng Island belongs to Zhan City and was occupied by General Bass. ”
"Well, where is he?" asked Xu Mo.
Fang Bing said, "His power is in Ba City, it is estimated that he will soon come to Zhan City to accept the territory, if he doesn't come today, he will come tomorrow." ”
"The first thing Bass did when he arrived, he was definitely going to the barracks. Let's wait for him at the barracks gate. Xu Mo thought for a moment and said.
Fang Bing nodded. Follow Xu Mo out of the yacht and enter the city. The two took a taxi to the hotel outside the barracks, booked a room on the top floor, and stood in front of the glass window of the room. Just in time to see the small half of the barracks.
Xu Mo thought for a moment. He came out of the room alone. When I went up to the roof and looked out into the barracks from the roof, I had a better line of sight.
He waited on the roof all the time. General Bass arrived at the barracks that night and set out to receive the power left behind by General Rayry. Seeing the other party's convoy enter the barracks, Xu Mo couldn't help but want to follow up several times.
Fortunately, General Bass did not stay in the barracks overnight, and he was probably worried that he had just taken over Rary's power and lack of control, and he would be assassinated in the barracks.
After some time, the convoy drove out of the barracks again. Xu Mo saw the other party's convoy coming out of the barracks from a distance, so he went down from the upper floor. When he arrived on the street, he happened to see a person parking nearby, Xu Mo struck the whip of the soul, knocked the person unconscious, drove his car, and followed General Bass's convoy from a distance.
General Bass's motorcade stopped outside a five-star hotel. The reception of General Rayry's position was inevitably hampered by his remnants, and could not be accomplished in a day or two, and General Bass had to stay here for a long time, so he chose to stay in a hotel.
This five-star hotel originally belonged to General Bass, and it was a spy who was planted in Cham City when General Lei Rui was still there.
Xu Mo watched General Bass enter the hotel, got out of the car, and walked directly to the hotel.
A waiter came up and stopped him, "I'm sorry, sir, the hotel has been chartered and will not be open for business for the next few days." ”
Xu Mo smiled and said, "I know it, you get out of the way." ”
While speaking, use the mental awareness of the sixth sense to influence the mind of the waiter. The waiter looked at him, and his heart couldn't help but blur for a while, and he subconsciously stepped aside, "Yes, sir." ”
Xu Mo exerted his ability to unite heaven and man, and his body quickly merged with the surrounding environment, and walked towards the hotel. Sentry posts had been set up in the lobby of the hotel, and a few strong soldiers with submachine guns were staring at the door.
Xu Mo rushed in directly, and no one saw him. Xu Mo grabbed a soldier casually, swung out the Spiritual Whip, stunned the rest of the soldiers, and asked the soldier who caught him with a smile, "Hey, which floor is General Bass?"
The soldier was affected by his sixth sense, and said in a daze, "Thirteen floors." ”
"Thirteenth floor, I know the way, you can sleep for a while. Xu Mo used the Psychic Whip to stun this soldier in the same way. Walk to the elevator door, press the button, and the elevator will come down the stairs.
Xu Mo entered the elevator and pressed the thirteenth floor, and the elevator went up all the way. When we reached the tenth floor, the elevator stopped. Xu Mo heard the breathing of more than a dozen people outside the elevator, and guards were clearly placed on the tenth floor. He didn't wait for the elevator door to open, and the whip of the soul swept through.
The guards on the tenth floor were all stunned, the elevator door opened, Xu Mo glanced outside the elevator, and pressed the door close button. The elevator continues to ascend to the thirteenth floor.
At this time, the alarm bell suddenly rang loudly, and someone spotted the guards in the hall upside down and raised the alarm.
"Alas!" Xu Mo sighed, and the elevator happened to be on the thirteenth floor. The elevator paused, and the doors slowly opened. Xu Mo's hearing was released, and he heard the sound of more than a dozen people breathing outside the elevator again.
Outside the elevator, more than a dozen guards pointed their submachine guns at the elevator, and as soon as the elevator door opened, they opened fire.
But how could Xu Mo give them such an opportunity? Another whip of the mind was swung, and the dozen or so guards fell to the ground. As if he had entered a no-man's land, he exerted his ability to unite heaven and man, and walked towards the room where General Bass was.
General Bass's room was even more heavily defended, and dozens of soldiers gathered together to protect him, all staring at the door.
Xu Mo heard the movement in the room, and did not approach, and said to the room with a smile, "Is General Bass here?"
The soldiers heard someone talking, and several people shot at the door together, and a continuous burst of gunfire rang out. The door was shot and fell.
Xu Mo smiled: "The firepower is very large. Taking advantage of the gap between listening to the fire, he once again exerted the ability of the unity of heaven and man and rushed into the room. The people in the room only felt a flower in front of them, Xu Mo had already arrived in front of General Bass, and asked with a smile, "You are General Bass?"
With a 'bang', the soldiers all turned around and pointed their guns at Xu Mo, but they were worried about hurting General Bass beside him, so no one fired for a while.
General Bass was about forty-five or sixteen years old. Short stature. Dark-skinned, a native of Nanni's land, he forced his composure, "Who are you?
Xu Mo said: "I am alone. It wasn't sent by anyone. There is a business. I want to consult with the general. ”
General Bass sneered: "I have never been threatened by others. If you want to do business with me, you should do it in the normal way. ”
As he spoke, he took out a pistol from under the table and aimed it at Xu Mo.
"Really?" Xu Mo smiled. The whip of the soul extends out. Stopping all the people in the room, he reached out and gently snatched the pistol from General Bass's hand.
He unloaded his bullet and pointed his pistol at the heads of everyone in the room, including General Bass, and fired an empty gun. These people were immobilized by him with the whip of their hearts, and although their bodies could not move, their hearts were clear.
Cold sweat couldn't help but run down everyone's foreheads, and if the other party had malicious intent, as long as the gun was loaded, everyone in the room would be shot and killed.
"Maybe we can talk about it now. Xu Mo threw the pistol on the table and let go of General Bass.
General Bass looked frightened, stepped back in terror, and cried out, "You are the devil, you are the devil." ”
Xu Mo smiled and said, "The devil holds your life in his hands, General. ”
General Bass gasped, "What did you do to my soldiers?"
"No, do you want me to let them go? Xu Mo said, the whip of the soul was retracted, and the soldiers in the room were immediately free.
Some soldiers were not very clear-headed, and as soon as they were free, they wanted to shoot Xu Mo. Xu Mo's Soul Whip was released again, and it shook everyone's hearts, and the soldiers couldn't help but shudder, and a feeling of fear welled up in their hearts.
Xu Mo continued: "Fools, you'd better think carefully before you shoot. ”
General Bass waved his hand, stopped his soldiers, and said to Xu Mo, "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Xu Mo spread his hands, "If I had spoken like this earlier, the matter would have been resolved a long time ago." There is a small island, which was originally within the range of General Rayry's power, and now it belongs to you, so I will buy it from you. ”
"A small island?" exclaimed General Bass, "damn it, a small island can be used for such a big battle, you can buy it from the Maritime Bureau." ”
Xu Mo said: "This island is a little special, I grabbed it from someone else, general. ”
"Which one?" asked General Bass.
Xu Mo said: "Its name is Yuansheng Island, maybe there is another name for you." "Speaking of the geographical location of Yuansheng Island.
General Bass couldn't figure out which island Xu Mo was referring to for a moment, and turned to his lieutenant, a shrewd man in his thirties. The adjutant hurriedly reminded, "It's Huanshan Island, General." ”
"Oh!" General Bass reacted when he heard the name, remembering the purpose of the island, "when this island was in Rayry's hands, it was used to grow poppies. Leiri relies on this and gets great benefits every year. When it came to the huge benefits, he stared at Xu Mo, and a greedy look appeared on his face.
"There are no poppies anymore, General. Xu Modao.
"Damn, you ruined it?" General Bass's guess was accurate.
Xu Mo said: "Now let's talk about the purchase price of the island." ”
General Bass said: "I remember that the island was very large, at least 400 square kilometers. He turned to his lieutenant. His adjutant duly answered, "Four hundred and eighty-seven square kilometers, General." ”
General Bass turned to Xu Mo again, "Four hundred and eighty-seven square kilometers, which is already a very large island, and many small countries are not so big, you want to buy from me, at least one billion dollars." ”
Xu Mo said: "General, you are too greedy, it is just a desert island with no people, and its value is at most 100 million US dollars." ”
General Bass yelled: "100 million dollars, don't even think about it, at least 500 million." ”
Xu Mo smiled faintly: "General Bass." If it's $500 million, I don't mind changing owners for the market. ”
General Bass's face darkened, and he said angrily, "What do you mean?"
"General Rayry is what I meant. Xu Mo said unhurriedly.
General Bass guessed something from his tone, and his heart sank, "You killed Rary?"
"You're wrong again, it was he who killed himself. He asked his men to take captives from country C to help him grow tobacco, and I, like those who were turned into living zombies by his men, were also from country C. Xu Mo said lightly.
General Bass also knows a little about the plantation on Yuansheng Island. Hearing this, he fell silent. After a while. Cai said: "At least 300 million US dollars, no less." ”
"No, General, I can only give you ten million dollars at most. Xu Mo didn't give an inch.
General Bass's face turned angry. yelled: "Just now you also said that Huanshan Island is worth 100 million US dollars. ”
Xu Modao: "The value of Huanshan Island is 100 million. The other 90 million are for your life. ”
General Bass said, "Damn. You're going to kill me?"
Xu Mo said: "I was already merciful just now, didn't I? You and your people shot me." When I took the gun from your hand, I could have done without unloading the bullets. Unloading the bullet, it's worth 90 million. Unless you don't care about your own life, in that case, we can do it again. ”
General Bass was stunned, but for a moment he could not find the words to refute it. He was silent again for a while, then raised his head and said loudly: "At least twenty million, otherwise you should kill me." ”
"Deal. Xu Mo smiled and stretched out his hand.
"You're a devil. General Bass reluctantly shook his hand.
"Be content, General. If this island is not sold, do you think you will be able to sleep at night?" Xu Mo said as he walked out, and when he reached the door, he reminded General Bass: "General, you had better inform the Maritime Bureau of your intentions in advance, otherwise, I will not be able to complete the formalities at the Maritime Bureau, so I will have to come back to you." By the way, if there is anything to do on Huanshan Island in the future, if you want to handle it in Zhanshi, please also give them convenience. ”
General Bass said: "You don't want to take any advantage from me again, your people are doing things in the city, don't want me to give them special care." ”
Xu Mo smiled, didn't say anything, and walked out the door. As long as General Bass didn't deliberately embarrass them, it was enough. I can't stay here forever, and the affairs of the island will have to be taken care of by someone else after all.
He got out of General Bass's hotel, drove the stolen car, and returned to the hotel outside the barracks, to his room. Fang Bing disappeared from him and walked around the room anxiously. Seeing Xu Mo coming back, he breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly greeted him, "Brother, you're back, how are things going?"
"It's going well, and you can go to the Maritime Bureau tomorrow to go through the formalities. Xu Modao.
Fang Bing was overjoyed and asked, "You persuaded General Bass?"
Xu Mo smiled: "Yes, I persuaded him, but the method is a bit special." ”
The next day, the two went to go through the formalities, and as soon as they walked to the door of the Maritime Safety Bureau, someone greeted them, "Sir, this ...... Mr. ”
Xu Mo turned his head to look, it turned out to be General Bass's adjutant and his assistant, the shrewd man in his thirties, with a few people behind him, obviously following him to protect him.
"It turned out to be you. Xu Mo said, and then pointed at Fang Bing, "This young lady is my agent, you can talk to her." ”
The adjutant turned to Fang Bing, stretched out his hand, and said politely: "Beautiful young lady, hello, I'm Fito, General Bass's assistant." ”
Fang Bing stretched out his hand and shook him shallowly, "Mr. Fito, hello, I'm Fang Bing." Well, he ...... His assistant. She realized that Fito didn't know the name of Xu Mo, so she didn't introduce him to him.
Fito said: "Miss Fang, hello, and this gentleman, please come with me." ”
Saying that, he led the way in front and took Fang Bing to go through the formalities. Xu Mo followed behind Fang Bing without saying a word.
When he arrived at the office of the Maritime Administration, Fito approached the officer in charge and introduced himself first. The official flattered him to the extent that he claimed to be an assistant to General Bass. Fito then explained his intentions, and the official immediately found a few clerks to come over and handle the procedures for Fang Bing to sell the island, and from beginning to end, he did not talk about money.
After the formalities were completed, Fito gave Xu Mo an account. This account number is actually the account number of a Swiss bank. It seems that General Bass is also worried that he will one day have problems and will not be able to sit in his current position, so his property is overseas.
Xu Mo got the account number and immediately transferred it. After the transfer was completed, Fito checked the results, checked them correctly, said a few words of blessing, and took the people away.
Xu Mo and Fang Bing didn't stay much, and since the island had been purchased, it was time to start construction. The island has plenty of manpower, but there are not many who are willing to stay and help with the construction, and at the end of the day, I am afraid that we will still have to hire workers from Nanni.
The two returned to the yacht, and they were piloted by He Yujie and returned to Yuansheng Island.
When I returned to Yuansheng Island, I asked if I was going to stay. Chen Jian had seen Xu Mo's magic, but he was willing to stay and help him do things. Not many others are willing to stay, and most of them want to return to China as soon as possible and visit their homes.
Even the very few who are willing to stay have this in mind. They were all taken captive by Yuansheng Island, and they were worried about the situation at home.
Xu Mo satisfied them, hired a large ship in Cham, and sent them back. Tens of thousands of missing people suddenly returned by ship from abroad, which naturally caused a sensation. Subsequent negotiations, formalities, and all kinds of troubles, not to mention him.
Xu Mo stayed on Yuansheng Island and began to gather manpower, hire workers, and rebuild Yuansheng Island. Fortunately, these things, once they are done and are on track, they can be done step by step. Xu Mo handed over all the construction on the island to Chen Jian to manage.
The salvage restarted, Xu Mo taught Fang Bing the control method of the sea monster, let her salvage independently, and returned to Wanshi by herself.
His sixth sense was already able to communicate with plants, and he was thinking about the infant in the seeds of the golden bread tree, so as soon as the matter was done, he couldn't wait to go back. (To be continued......)
