Chapter 1: Big Business

Sitting in the car and eating hot meals, Qi Jiamei was still thinking about who she was. But she was in a good mood now, at least she saw so many people, which was what she did after she woke up from that cargo ship.

For the first time in a long time, seeing so many people made her feel that human society is not destructive.

However, this place is still full of ugliness. There are no police, soldiers, and no one to maintain order. Once a dispute arises, it depends on who takes action first, or who can suppress whom.

Within ten minutes of their meal, three people were killed less than ten meters away from their car.

The first person who was killed was selling some seeds for food. Then, a few days ago, someone who came to buy the seeds came to the door and said that there was something wrong with his seeds and that they would not sprout if they were planted. The vendor was anxious and said that it was impossible to be so fast.

Then the germination of the seed buyer quits, but he just said that it was fake. The two of them then took action. The buyer pulled out his pistol and shot the vendor's head, and left with his goods. Then he walked around.

The people who had been waiting for a long time rushed forward and began to plunder the peddler's body, even his blood-stained clothes were taken away.

The second and third ones are two people who buy wine, bargaining with the wine seller, saying that the wine seller has methanol mixed in. They have a companion who is now blind and the wine seller refuses to admit it.

, saying that they were hindering their business, turned around and picked up the shotgun, knocking over two directly with one shot.

The two men were beaten to pieces and their bodies were placed there, no one cared about it. Until someone could not bear to see it, they would be pulled into a pit outside the Freeport that had long been dug to bury feces and corpses.

"See it? Strength determines everything." Howard stuffed the last piece of sausage into his mouth and chewed it, and smiled at the shot wine dealer, who spat on the ground and stared at Howard fiercely.

It means to tell him not to meddle in other people's business.

Qi Jiamei said expressionlessly: "This is why you brought me here, to protect you and your goods."

"No, to make a fortune together." Howard said with a smile, "Actually, that man's shotgun was not well maintained. If it was well maintained, if that shot continued, at least one of the two men's heads would be cut off halfway.

.”

Qi Jiamei put down the plate: "That was decided by the bullet, not the gun, okay?"

Howard still laughed. At this moment, a man wearing a black sweatshirt and carrying a luggage walked up to their car and asked Howard first: "What are you selling?"

When Howard was about to speak, the man looked up and saw Qi Jiamei, obviously surprised, but he quickly looked away. Although Howard did not notice, Qi Jiamei noticed this detail. She carefully

I carefully observed the person outside the car and deliberately kept staring at the person.

The man seemed to have no weapons, but was carrying his luggage, looking very relaxed. He didn't look like he came from afar. Maybe he was a person who had been doing business in Freeport for a long time. The guy looked at him before, obviously,

Knowing yourself. Qi Jiamei thought of this, opened the car door and got out of the car. She deliberately went around the front of the car.

The man was really nervous when he saw Qi Jiamei get off the car and talked absent-mindedly to Howard, but he said that he would use gasoline to exchange all of Howard's goods.

Howard's eyes shone and asked, "How many?"

"Five standard barrels, 150 liters per barrel." The man glanced at Qi Jiamei at the front of the car.

Howard was shocked, knowing that this was a good deal for pens. But he was still greedy after all, and shook his head and said, "Isn't the standard barrel 220 liters?"

"The original international standard barrel was 150 liters. This was based on crude oil standards." The man shook his head and said.

Howard smiled: "Gas oil is calculated based on crude oil barrels? Are you not sick? Ordinary gasoline barrels are 220 liters!"

"150 liters! 6 barrels, no more. Someone here happens to need these things. If it weren't for a coincidence, your things would not be sold at all. No one here would buy them. Look at whoever seems to need maintenance.

The man with the gun?" The man twitched his nose and still looked at Qi Jiamei with his eyes squinted.

Howard glanced at Qi Jiamei and thought that he and Qi Jiamei could split the goods equally, so he agreed and nodded, "Okay, where to deliver the goods?"

"Let the port and walk to the north, and to the intersection of the two rivers. The transaction is at 7:30 pm. I'll treat you to a meal. Turkey. You must have not eaten it for a long time." The man smiled, with a smile on his face.

Cunning.

Howard nodded: "Okay, then I'll thank you in advance, but my car has no gas. I want to transport these things, it's not very convenient."

"I will send a car to pick you up. At 7:10, you are waiting here." The man said and turned around and left, and disappeared in a short while.

Qi Jiamei looked at the man. Howard saw that she was staring at the man, so he asked, "What's wrong? Is there a problem with him?"

"I don't know, I just think he seems to know me." Qi Jiamei shook her head.

"It's impossible that it's such a coincidence? He knows you, why don't you call your name?" Howard said in confusion. "And this free port has just begun to rise and it's not long. You can't have been here before."

Qi Jiamei still shook her head: "No, I don't know what I did before, otherwise why would I have such skills?"

"I have thought about it for you. You were either a soldier, a mercenary, or a professional killer, or something like that." Howard nodded, "But the possibility of a professional killer is the greatest! But it doesn't matter, this deal has been completed

, Let's get rich, six barrels of gasoline, do you know what it means? It means that you can exchange many essential items for you when you go on the road with those three barrels of gasoline, and I can exchange for other things and continue to do my business.

, I would buy a lot of batteries back to Europe and sell them to local resistance organizations, and I could make several times more money!”

Qi Jiamei nodded and said, "Then I congratulate you in advance."

Seeing that Qi Jiamei was still so cold, Howard had to say, "I'll sleep for a while, please help me watch it, and I have to discuss business at night. I don't know if this guy will keep his promise. If he doesn't keep his promise, everything else depends on you.



Qi Jiamei nodded: "No problem."

Howard woke up at 7:10 pm, and a small truck was parked next to their car. The man drove here himself, carrying two laborers. At first glance, the two of them were the natives, a pair of people.

He had a honest expression on his face, and he was respectful to the man, so he could do whatever he wanted.

With Howard's permission, the man started to carry the boxes containing gun parts onto the truck. Then the man got out of the lane: "Your car is useless, so let's see if there is anything that can be used inside, I'll do it too."

If you take it apart, I will give you another sum of money, how about it?"

Howard certainly wants it, because the hotel owner said that if his car is out of gas, it is best to solve it yourself. Otherwise, it will be a problem to get it out sooner or later. Maybe one day this car blocked the road will be for him.

Causing a disaster.

The man opened the hood and looked at it, then got some gasoline and started the car. After hearing the sound, he went into the hotel to greet a few people with tools, and used the engine and battery, as well as some other equipment that looked pretty solid.

He took it down and loaded it with his own truck, and then took Howard and Qi Jiamei toward the convergence entrance of the river.

However, when the man came this time, he saw Qi Jiamei, it was much more natural than last time, and he did not show any expression that looked like he knew Qi Jiamei.

This made Qi Jiamei feel deeply surprised, and even thought that when she saw the man at noon, she felt wrong?

Although it seems to be only twenty minutes away from the hotel to the convergence of the two rivers, the road is actually very good. Qi Jiamei has calculated that it is at least about five kilometers away, which means there is something wrong with the ship.

, because the river here cannot enter ships with too large tonnage, which also ensures that ships such as warships cannot operate here and are relatively safe.

However, for the sake of cargo safety and trade convenience, the cargo ships here will park ships at the port, and the port also specially expanded the port river channel for the convenience of mooring ships.

Why didn't they stop there? After Howard and Qi Jiamei arrived at the place mentioned by the mysterious man, they found that his ship was an armed cargo ship.

Although today's cargo ships are equipped with various weapons, this is not uncommon, but the ship has more armed forces than ordinary ships, and looks a bit similar to the iron-armored ships from the World War. They are wrapped tightly around them and the muzzle is still

You can clearly see the exposed cannon. In addition to the missile launcher, there are six Vulcan cannons and several mortars on the top platform. There are smoke sprayers and smoke bomb launchers around them to cover the ship.

itself.

The entire ship is actually not large in size, it seems to be able to travel in this river, and there are many people holding light and heavy weapons standing on the ship, looking like mercenaries.

After the mysterious man got out of the car, he whistled, and then four more laborers ran out and carried all Howard's cargo onto the ship under his command. At the same time, the people on the ship also started a simple crane and lifted six barrels of gasoline from it.

Go down and put it directly on the mysterious man's car.

The mysterious man then threw the key to Howard and said, "The car belongs to you, and the car is full of fuel, which is a compensation for your car."

Howard was worried that the goods would be transported in the man's car, but now the man's actions have dispelled his concerns. He nodded and smiled and asked, "I don't know what sir is called?"

"My name is Captain X." The mysterious man smiled, "Everyone calls me that, I have forgotten what I used to be. Okay, the transaction is almost over. By the way, there is also turkey, I have to invite you

Have a turkey meal, which is OK, I have a bottle of good rum and the best drink, and I guarantee you haven't drunk for many years."

In this environment, no one can withstand this temptation. Howard looked at Qi Jiamei and sought her opinions. Qi Jiamei did not say anything. Captain x smiled and said, "I know you are not at ease to get on the boat,

It's OK, I'll ask someone to bring the turkey and wine down!"

As he said that, Captain X turned to the boat, and the others on the deck were busy, and it seemed that he was preparing to start the anchor again and start the boat. (To be continued)
