Chapter 1232: You're Not Accepting My Cigarettes?

Liu Hong rolled his eyes in anger.

What sin did he commit? Why didn't the three subordinates under him take him seriously?

"Alright, stop talking nonsense with me." Liu Hong straightened his expression and said,

"What are you so busy with in Zhonghai? You're too arrogant. If I didn't invite you, you wouldn't have come over, right?"

"No, I really have something to take care of." Lin Yi said.

"My cart of fruits is still parked at the entrance of the hotel. If I don't hurry up and sell them, they will rot in a few days." absaf 

"Aren't they just fruit? How much will they cost in total? I'll cover the total cost, alright? After all, you're a big president. Why are you still bothering with such small sums?"

"That's good. I have a total of more than 130 pounds of fruit. The market price is 3,000 yuan for 500g. We're already so familiar with each other. I'll sell it to you for 2,500 yuan a pound. I'll give you a discount of 325,000 yuan, so you can just give me 300,000 yuan."

"What do you have?! 2,500 yuan for 500 grams? Are your fruits made of gold?!"

"This is my lowest price ever. Do you still want the discount, and are you paying by credit card or cash? We can also do a business-to-business transfer, and our company can provide you with an invoice."

"Um… Let's talk about something else."

"Why are you afraid? A fee of 300,000 yuan and you're already frightened? You're the leader of the Central Guards Brigade, so you have to be greedy. If you don't know how to make a few sh.e.l.l accounts, I'll call our finance department over to help you. I guarantee that we'll do it flawlessly."

"Don't talk nonsense, kid. There is a camera in this room. Someone will probably start questioning me later."

Lin Yi laughed. He knew that this was a sensitive matter, so he didn't continue.

"Have you seen the contents of the hard drive? Is it useful?"

This was something Lin Yi was more concerned about. This would greatly boost the development of biological technology in the country.

In comparison, the two kilograms of ore seemed dispensable.

"Naturally, it has some uses, but the research on the gene sequence serum won't work in Huaxia. The higher-ups don't plan to study it in depth for this purpose and plan to use it in other fields."

Lin Yi nodded. This was within his expectations.

"You're right. Such inhumane processes are not suitable for our country."

"However, this time, the higher-ups don't plan to give you any special credit. Instead, you're going to receive a series of second-cla.s.s merits. Do you have any objections to this?"

"No objections. I didn't handle this matter well, so do whatever you want."

"Alright, I'm relieved that you aren't fussed about this." Liu Hong said.

"By the way, I forgot to tell you something. Elder Lu called this morning and said that he wants to see you again. If you have nothing else to do, go over now."

"He's such a big shot. Why would he want to see me?"

Lin Yi was still a little conflicted about meeting Lu Beichen.

He came here to dig around and figure out the situation on Tilia Island.

He didn't want to get too involved.

He was a bit worried about being summoned by such a big figure all of a sudden.

"I don't know about that, but you've received two consecutive second-cla.s.s merits. He probably just wants to meet you."

"Can I not go?"

"What do you think?"

"There's a cart full of fruit for me to sell."

"You rascal, the leader is personally asking to meet you, but you're still rejecting him. This opportunity is much better than selling fruits!"

Lin Yi knew that Liu Hong was doing this for his own good.

However, he was just a cheater. 'I want to sell fruits to fulfill the mission!'

"Alright, alright, alright. I'll head there in a while. Let's talk about something else."

"What do you want to talk about? Want me to help you rank up?"

"Don't mess around. After all, I'm a master in Ionia[1]; I don't need your help."

"Being a master in Ionia is useless. Come to Zaun, and I'll turn you into an orphan in no time."

"I'm already an orphan. My parents pa.s.sed away a long time ago."

"You brat." Liu Hong, cigarette in hand, chuckled and scolded, "So, what's the matter?"

"Eliza and the others were killed in this transaction. Black Gold Corporation suffered heavy losses. Have you paid attention to their movements recently?"

"I've thought about this too. There's nothing unusual for the time being," Liu Hong said.

"Now that they've lost two generals, they probably won't dare to do anything under the spotlight. They are most likely on guard in the dark."

"But Team 4 is still on Tilia Island."

"You don't have to worry about those perverts from Team 4. Normally, the people from Black Gold Corporation wouldn't dare to touch the people from Team 4."

It was just as he had imagined…

Lin Yi muttered in his heart. Team 4 contained the highest combat strength of the Central Guards Brigade.

Otherwise, people of Qiu Yuluo and Ning Che's standards would find it very difficult to handle Black Gold Corporation.

"You don't have to focus on Black Gold Corporation now. The situation outside the country is very chaotic. They're not a threat to us at this point. I'll keep an eye on them."

After saying that, Liu Hong looked at his watch. "Alright, it's getting late. Go to Elder Lu's place and check out what he wants. He might be looking for you for something urgent."

"Alright, I'll go over now." Lin Yi turned around and walked out, "Send the address to my phone later."

"Hurry up and go. I'll send it to you now."

After leaving the Central Guards Brigade's training base, Liu Hong sent the address over.

Lin Yi pursed his lips and muttered in his heart,

"The General Staff Department's compound. How impressive."

After taking a taxi, Lin Yi arrived at the entrance of the General Staff Department's courtyard forty minutes later. The guards naturally stopped him.

After some communication, they politely let him in.

Lin Yi followed the guard's direction and walked into the courtyard.

This place gave off a similar feeling to Zhonghai's garrison area.

He could hear the sound of training in the distance, accompanied by the feeling of solemnity.

After walking for more than ten minutes, Lin Yi arrived at the innermost building.

Occasionally, someone would pa.s.s by, but the most conspicuous thing was the small square table not far away. There was a plain tea set on it. Beside it was a small clay stove with hot water boiling on it.

Lu Beichen held a fan and fanned himself, seemingly feeling a little hot.

His attire was incredibly down-to-earth, just like the old men you'd find in the heart of Yanjing who would wear white undershirts and fan themselves with fans in public.

"Come, come, come. I've been waiting for you for a long time."

Seeing Lin Yi, Lu Beichen waved his hand and smiled kindly.

Lin Yi quickened his pace and walked over, taking a seat on a nearby small bench.

"Elder Lu, is there something you need from me?"

"What are you talking about? You're my subordinate. Can't I look for you without a reason?"

Lin Yi laughed. "No, I'm just a little flattered."

"Seeing your smile, I know you didn't take it seriously."

At this moment, the water on the clay stove boiled. Lu Beichen slowly took it off the heat and brewed a pot of Da Hong Pao.

"Try the Da Hong Pao from the mother tree of Mount Wuyi. The cost of a pot of this is equivalent to a Hongqi[2] sedan."

"If I really drink it, the people from the anti-corruption department will come to me."

"It's fine. The head of the anti-corruption department was my student."

"Awesome."

Lin Yi took a sip of tea. He didn't like this type of tea. Everyone often said that Da Hong Pao was the best tea.

However, Lin Yi really couldn't tell what was good about it.

Out of habit, Lu Beichen took out a pack of unwrapped cigarettes and handed one to Lin Yi. The latter waved his hand to reject it out of habit.

"You're not accepting my cigarettes?"
