Hu Zhiyan bit his lower lip, and suddenly said: "That's right, then Mr. Zhao, I'll go down first, and you can call me if you need anything."
......
Across the ocean.
In a secret base in Florida.
The director of the CIA, Alkaros, was sitting in a windowless room, quietly flipping through the documents on the table.
Not long after, the door of the room opened, and a white man came in holding a document. He was Owens, Alkaros' assistant secretary.
"Director, the latest information report."
"Read!" Alkaros said without looking back.
"Saudi King Salman, Abu Dhabi King Zayed, Qatari King Emir and other visiting groups from Middle Eastern countries have already returned to China. According to our informant feedback, they have conducted a closed treatment in China,"
Owens read: "After completing this treatment, their bodies have reached a completely healthy level. The specific details of this treatment are still unclear."
"In addition, the rest of the Middle Eastern heads of state and nobles who have received the news all want to participate in this treatment."
阿尔卡洛斯面无表情的说道：“继续监控源"发；自;小.说,群:9;8、0!2，05?8'5：6！！和打听，我想知道这个治疗的更多细节，可以加大经费投入。”
"Yes, Chief!"
Owens continued: "Currently, out of the 600 people who have completed the transformation of super soldiers, only [-]% of them have successfully passed the side effects of the medicine..."
Alkaros still responded lightly: "Share the newly improved potion information with our allies, and work together to research and improve."
Owens was slightly surprised: "Don't we retain our technological advantages?"
Alkaros snorted, and said with a hint of disdain: "What technical advantage? At this technical level, our opponent has already come ahead of us,"
"And I don't know how many years we have been ahead, so if we still cherish ourselves, we will always be crushed by our opponents and unable to stand up."
"We have only increased the success rate from the original 5.00% to [-]%... There is no technical advantage."
"Yes, Chief!"
Owens asked: "Then did the news come through the Internet or through manual channels?"
The scene was quiet for a few seconds, and Alkaros sighed: "Go online, this is not particularly important information, and it is useless for the opponent to get it."
Then he asked again: "Is there any news from Brazil?"
Owens said: "Since switching to the manual channel, the transmission of news has been much slower. It is better to use the telegram, at least much faster than the manual channel..."
"Confused!"
Alkaros cursed in a low voice, and said, "Pulson Dominique was 13 years old and could pick up electronic scraps from the garbage dump to make his own radio, and he is also a member of the Radio Association, and the telegram is not very safe... "
"Yes, Chief!"
"If there is no news, let them follow the original plan."
......
Shencheng.
Inside an antique shop in Noahd.
A middle-aged man with sleek hair was holding a string of agarwood wood bracelets, and while he was coiling the bracelets, accompanied by a sales lady, he was looking at the antiques in the store.
"Brother Xiang, you have a really good eye. This piece of "Bamboo and Stone Leisurely Interesting Picture" by Zhou Fu in the Qing Dynasty that you saw is an authentic piece from the Christie's auction. Master Zhou Fu is good at painting bamboo and stone, with beautiful brushwork and ink, thoughtful, The beautiful coloring of landscape figures is a rare treasure handed down from generation to generation."
Brother Xiang moved his eyes away from "Bamboo and Stone Leisurely Interesting Picture", turned around to the big blue and white pot behind, and said, "How did you sell this baby?"
That expression, that tone of voice, seemed to be as casual as shopping in a vegetable market, or pretending not to see the value of the big blue and white pot.
The sales lady put on a smile on her face and said: "Yo, Brother Xiang is indeed a great collector of goods, but I'm really sorry, this treasure can only be seen in our store, and has no right to sell it. The head office specially explained that this is Not for sale."
Brother Xiang said with a slightly angry face: "If there is anything that is not for sale, call your President Ai, and I will tell her personally."
The sales lady still smiled and said: "I'm really sorry, Brother Xiang may not know that our boss has changed, and now our owner is Zhao's Mining in Jiangcheng, and Mr. Ai has sold Nuo Yade to Zhao's as a whole. …”
"Is there such a thing?" Brother Xiang said dubiously.
"It's true." The sales lady said: "I'm not going to hide it from you, Brother Xiang, every antique shop under Nuo Yade has a large blue and white pot like this, but they are not for sale..."
Brother Xiang snorted and said, "So, that boss Zhao of the Zhao family is really unusual..."
Chapter 735 Efforts to expand
In fact, the sales lady is suspected of exaggerating. Of the six antique shops under Nuo Yade, only four have large blue and white pots. When Xu Wenqian selected the other two, she used gold and jade wares of similar value instead.
But it’s okay to say so, but they are not for sale anyway, and no one can visit the six stores one by one to see...
"Let's take a look at the head office..." Brother Xiang curled his lips, staring at the big blue and white porcelain jar in the glass cabinet and said helplessly.
The sales lady smiled sweetly: "Of course you can look at it. Brother Xiang is a regular customer of our store. If you look at it, you won't let people look at it. Isn't it just for others to say that our Nuoyade store is a big bully?"
Brother Xiang put away the bracelets that had been coiled for a long time, and walked into the glass cabinet where the blue and white porcelain jars were stored.He put his hand on the glass on the side, and his eyes were a little crazy...
He turned several directions and looked back and forth, but Brother Xiang's expression became more and more lonely.
Still muttering in his mouth: "It's a pity, it's a pity..."
When the sales lady wanted to say something more comforting, Brother Xiang walked out on his own.
While walking, he shook his head and said, "If this can be sold... that would be great..."
So far, the news of the blue and white porcelain in Nuoyade Antique Store under the Zhao family has spread like wildfire, causing quite a stir in the high-end antique circle for a while, and there are a lot of guests who come to watch it.
......
Han Suyu walked down the spiral staircase of Tranquility. Although it was a day later than expected, she called Zhao An in advance and Zhao An agreed to her request to spend a day at sea.
Wang Bing hugged Wang Xinyi fondly and followed behind her, asking, "Should I go home first or go to the company first?"
"Of course I go home first..."
Han Suyu smiled coquettishly: "It's late anyway, Mr. Zhao may be taking a nap at the company at this time, I think it's better to go at three or four in the afternoon."
"Listen to you..." Wang Bing put down Wang Xinyi, waved goodbye to Song Shining and others on Tranquility, and left the dock by car.
Naturally, Zhao An wasn't taking a nap, he was listening to Xu Wenqian's report in the office at the moment.
"At present, with the increase of our mines, several large mines in Brazil and Africa are continuously producing all kinds of gemstones, and the production of Sri Lanka in South Asia has also increased significantly recently, which has caused a backlog of our short-term inventory... ..."
Since Zhao An conquered the two gangsters in Brazil, Exxon Mining has been greatly expanded. Five mines have been opened at once to collect rubies, aquamarines, opals, ambers, tourmalines and other associated gemstones. mine,
They are all extremely valuable gem-grade minerals, which immediately opened up the source of raw materials for Zhao's gemstones.
And Sri Lanka is presided over by Wei Xiang, a die-hard supporter of Zhao An, and has a large amount of financial support. After several months of continuous expansion, several high-value gemstone mines have also been opened, and they can also produce a large number of gems. Gem out.
Zhao An tapped his fingers on the table, as if thinking, and pondered after a long time: "Didn't we just acquire so many stores in Nuo Yade, so many stores can't digest the gems produced?"
Xu Wenqian said: "Nuo Yade stores originally had inventory. Although it is true that part of the production can be digested, with the expansion of production, our current stores cannot keep up with the increase in production."
"I see what you mean..."
Zhao An said: "Then continue to open the store and expand in a small area!"
"At present, we will first set up the positioning in several major first-tier cities in China, as well as provincial capital cities, and then open more branches in our headquarters, Jiangcheng. What does Mr. Xu think?"
Now that the Zhao family has sufficient funds and resources, it should expand on a large scale.
Xu Wenqian nodded and said, "I think it's feasible. Expansion is necessary. After all, the jewelry industry belongs to the luxury industry. The offline experience is much better than the online one, and it's also relatively traditional."
Zhao An nodded and said, "Very well, then Mr. Xu will take charge of this matter and make it an important task for us in the second quarter."
The first quarter is to speed up the mining enclosure, but after all the gems are collected, they will be sold, so in the second quarter, Zhao An will complete the sales support.
Just as Xu Wenqian left the house, Han Suyu, who couldn't hide her excitement, walked into Zhao An's office gracefully.
Seeing her radiant appearance, Zhao An couldn't help laughing and said, "Why, looking at Mr. Han's appearance, you still feel a little reluctant to come back?"
Han Suyu sat down on the swivel chair opposite Zhao An and said, "No way, playing is just to mediate the pressure of work. As an adult, I can still understand this point. In the end, I would like to thank Mr. Zhao for his generosity. ..."
Serenity's voyage, not to mention the millions of dollars in fuel, and the addition of daily maintenance, is not a small sum.
But Zhao An said nonchalantly: "This is just a trivial matter, continue to sell me coins when you come back, and try to sell them to me as soon as possible..."
"Since you also like yachts, it won't be difficult for me to give you a yacht after you finish this job!"
I have heard of sending sports cars, but it is really rare to send yachts.
Han Suyu was also a little shocked, but thinking about earning so much money for Zhao An, she also felt that the other party's gift of a yacht was reciprocated.
Then he said with a smile on his face: "Boss Zhao, even if you give me a yacht, I can't afford it."
Zhao An sat up straight, and said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this. First of all, I will consider the reality. I won't send you such a big one, which can seat about ten people, and Wang Bing has a yacht driver's license. I learned a lot from Song Haicheng, and I can drive it myself."
"Finally, don't cry poor with me, the commission will not be less for you..."
Han Suyu smiled into a crescent and said: "Then thank Mr. Zhao for your generosity, I will definitely work hard!"
Zhao Andao: "Anyway, clear out the bitcoins in our hands as soon as possible. In addition, when you go back, call me Wang Bing to the office."
Han Suyu froze for a moment and said, "Why did you call him?"
Zhao An snorted and said, "Don't inquire about social affairs!"
Angrily, Han Suyu stood up, stomped her feet, and went out with a twist.
Not long after, Wang Bing strode in and asked in his unique, somewhat old-fashioned voice, "Boss, are you calling me?"
Zhao An raised his eyes to look at his dark face blown by the sea breeze, and said, "I have a task for you, you decide whether to accept it or not."
Chapter 736 Recruitment
As Zhao An's Yuan Cong supporter, Wang Bing has not yet refused Zhao An's mission.
"Mr. Zhao, please tell me, I will try my best to finish it!"
Zhao An smiled, beckoned him to sit down, and then said after watching him sit down: "Recently, the situation in Brazil is a bit delicate. traces of warriors,
Although their super fighters are not comparable to ours in strength, it is not a good thing after all. I am worried that there is some conspiracy in it.
But so far I have not received definite news, this is the first point that makes me uneasy,
Secondly, although the two major gangsters in Brazil are currently operating according to our established direction, after all, these people are used to wild gangsters, and they still have to beat them from time to time."
"But I'm going to spend more time with my wife now, and it's not convenient to go too far away, so my idea is, let you go to Brazil instead of me, on the one hand to collect and find out what the CIA is doing there,
On the other hand, as my special envoy, I will beat up the gang bosses in the capital headquarters... let them give me a little peace of mind during this special period. "
Wang Bing was silent for a while, as if he was digesting what Zhao An said, and he said after a while, "Should I leave now?"
Zhao An frowned and said, "That's not necessary, I have already asked Zhiyuan to apply for a route to Rio de Janeiro, and it will take off in three days.
You still help me drive the car these few days, by the way, wait and see, there is no more news. "
During this period of time, Zhao An has been communicating with Dominique every day, just to know what the CIA is planning to do in Brazil, but there is almost no valuable news on the surface.
But Zhao An still didn't quite understand what was so tricky about it, and what kind of medicine was sold in the other party's gourd.
There is a saying that the open sword is easy to hide and the hidden arrow is difficult to guard against. Zhao An is not afraid of coming to the open, but is worried about all kinds of hidden knives. It is impossible to guard against...
"Okay Mr. Zhao, I can leave at any time, just let me know when I'm going." Wang Bing said.
Watching Wang Bing open the door and go out, Zhao Anpo twitched her chin, thinking whether the power in her hand was too weak.
Although he has more than 400 super fighters from the Xiongan Regiment, he has now sent a team of 220 people to Mauritania to guard the ongoing reclamation base there.
In addition, it is necessary to ensure that the secrets of the Alpha spaceship are not leaked. Although there is no shortage of armed forces on the Alpha spaceship, it is better not to leak it.
The remaining more than 200 Xiong'an fighters will leave some to guard the mines in Myanmar. In addition, as a mercenary group, the Xiong'an regiment must also take on some self-sufficient tasks, such as protecting a rich man, or protecting some secret transactions, etc. .
Moreover, the airport in Sihanoukville has restarted. Once it is completed, soldiers will be sent to settle in, otherwise the money will be wasted.
Thinking of this, Zhao An felt that the strength in his hands was still a little weak.
So he went downstairs from the elevator and called Shang Wang Bing to the Jiangcheng military division.
Asking Wang Bing to wait for him in the car, he rushed to Fang Diwei's office and saw Lao Fang who was working.
"What's the matter, Boss Zhao has nothing to go to the Three Treasure Hall again?" Fang Diwei raised his eyes to look at Zhao An, and then turned his eyes to the document in his hand.
Zhao An chuckled, took the teacup from Secretary Liu and put it on the coffee table, sat down calmly and said, "Can't I come and have a look?"
Fang Diwei laughed and said: "Let's put it down, it's not a particularly important matter, usually you call me to arrange it, but only things that are closely related to your boss Zhao... And it's the kind of thing that's hard to talk about, You will come here yourself."
"Is there some ulterior motive in arranging the two words?"
