Chapter 330: Chapter 188 Escort Task_2
What kind of friend is this unlucky?
Can such a person even be considered a friend?
Allen Zhang glanced at the time; it’s only eight in the morning, still a long way from sunset, so the other party is not in immediate danger of losing their life.
First let this rich young master enjoy the breeze in the suburbs; the savior doesn’t have time to save him right now.
[Daily Intelligence: The recycling station of Wally in Sixth District has started its business. There will be a door-to-door recycling job posted, and the employer’s warehouse is filled with beverage bottles and collection of coins. Your supervisor, Leo, will be lucky to find a 1906 Titanic victim’s coin.]
Titanic victim’s coin?
Allen Zhang did a quick search and discovered a similar piece of news in the headlines of a newspaper. An identical coin was once auctioned at an auction house and bought by a collector, eventually selling for 75,000 US Dollars!
The recycling station has struck gold coins again.
Allen Zhang was in a good mood and immediately sent a message to Leo to check in on him and ask how his job at Wally recycling station was going.
Leo: Boss, I’m doing pretty well here, and Monica is here helping out too. Thank you for trusting me and for giving me this job!
Allen Zhang: Work hard, and if you encounter any problems, you can consult Dominic; he has more experience in these matters. ƒreewebɳovel.com
Leo: I will.
After a few more exchanges, Allen Zhang ended the conversation.
He then sent a message to Sieg: I’ve taken an armed escort task from Opportunity Network; Firefox Security Company needs to transport some equipment and there’s a bit of private goods smuggled along with it. They’ll probably send someone to talk business with you later, remember to open up Armed Nation early.
Sieg: What kind of escort task? Is there any risk?
Allen Zhang sent detailed information to Sieg: The mission pays 45,000 US Dollars. Don’t worry, it’s just about escorting a batch of sniper rifles, ammunition, and private letters, there won’t be much risk.
Sieg: The employer is willing to pay 30,000 US Dollars? They’re so generous? He must have enemies! Normal people probably can’t get the goods to him, so they must be leveraging our escort vehicles to get the stuff there.
Allen Zhang was relieved: You got it. This ready business should not be missed; do you want to run an empty store selling goods?
Sieg: I could buy a batch of goods cheaply from my friend, hand-modified second-hand guns; I can sell them a bit cheaper.
Allen Zhang: That’s not necessary, I’ve already sourced supplies, with retail prices as low as half a tank of gas. Also, I’ll give you a few heads of cattle, and a single cow goes for at least 600 US Dollars on the market!
Sieg: I understand about the supply channel, but where did these cows come from?
Allen Zhang: I have an old friend whose estate is waiting for me to pick it up.
Sieg: ...
Are you pulling this trick again?
Allen Zhang put away his phone, dressed properly, washed up, and headed downstairs.
Rena had already prepared breakfast, and when she saw Allen Zhang coming downstairs, she greeted him, "Dear, you’re awake? Hurry over to eat; the shelter will be open for business soon. After eating, go ahead and take care of your work."
"Ok." Allen Zhang did not decline and sat down at the table to enjoy breakfast with Rena.
Eating silently and quickly finishing the meal, Allen Zhang wanted to help Rena clean up, but she refused, so he simply gave her a warm kiss and hug, greeted her, and walked out of the shelter.
Allen Zhang messaged Melvin from the car to ask for his current location and then drove to pick him up, taking him to the suburbs ranch to collect an old friend’s inheritance.
Melvin got in the car, buckled his seatbelt, and Allen Zhang promptly started the car again, leaving the urban area behind, heading for the ranch on the 426 Highway in the suburbs.
After driving for dozens of minutes, they arrived at a relatively remote ranch. They parked the Jeep by the roadside, and seeing the barbed wire and fence with high voltage electric signs, Allen Zhang couldn’t help but exclaim, "No wonder nobody comes here usually; the security measures are so good that if someone died here, their rotting body would go undiscovered for a long time."
"Boss, what are we doing here? We’re not going to try to take away their cows, are we?" Melvin was puzzled.
"If I wanted to buy cows, would I need to sneak around? It’s not like I can’t afford them. There’s no need to buy them, believe it or not, a dozen cows will end up coming to us on their own."
Allen Zhang locked the doors and windows of the Jeep and began to look for a way to get inside along the path.
"How could I ever believe that?" Melvin expressed his doubt about what the General Sect Leader said.
"Then just wait and see." After walking around the perimeter of the fence for a half-circle, Allen Zhang finally found a gap that had been pried open, apparently by the arms dealers the day before.
Crawling through the gap, Melvin followed closely.
While walking on the grassy plain of the ranch, Melvin saw dead ducks on the ground and asked curiously, "What happened here? All the farm-raised ducks are dead?"
They walked further and stumbled upon a dead sheep. Looking closer, they saw a gunshot wound and its wool blasted open.
Melvin couldn’t help pondering and couldn’t understand why anyone would use 5.56mm bullets to kill a sheep.
Initially thought to be an isolated death, the path ahead proved more alarming, with more than one carcass of cows and sheep found along the roadside, all shot to death. Even people from the animal protection agency would be brought to tears by this scene.
