68: Chapter 68 [Want Travel Expenses?]

68 -68 [Want Travel Expenses?]

Ye Tianchen seemed to have agreed to protect the people of Dragon Country as they headed to M country to exchange secret documents.

This wasn’t considered an accepted mission, nor was there any mission binding Ye Tianchen; he was merely intrigued upon hearing Cang Lang mention that M country had a Superpower Special Agent Team with many experts, which sparked his interest and enthusiasm.

Having been reborn in this life, if he didn’t go overseas to meet those experts and show them what for, they would really think Dragon Country was easy to bully.

Today they come borrowing money and grain, tomorrow they might want to seize islands and lands—truly, too despicable.

Facing the three conditions proposed by Ye Tianchen, Cang Lang thought for a moment and readily agreed to all.

He wanted Ye Tianchen’s father, Ye Hong, to enter the Kyoto Party School for study, which was to prepare him for future promotion.

Any officials who could enter the party school in the capital would definitely become national rulers; there were no exceptions, and this was easy to handle.

With just a word from Yang Yi, that was trivial; for Ye Tianchen’s request that Cang Lang release a prisoner serving a life sentence named Yang Hai, this too was something Cang Lang could easily accomplish; as for Ye Tianchen’s demand for a fight upon completing the mission and returning home, Cang Lang couldn’t wait for it, but why?

Because Ye Tianchen was slightly arrogant, daring to challenge him.

If he didn’t teach him a lesson, he might really think he earned his title as one of Dragon Country’s three War Kings for nothing.

The first condition was for his father, Ye Hong; the second was to fulfill his promise to Wuxue, having killed Luo Lei and Luo Tao, Ye Tianchen helped to rescue his foster father Yang Hai, which he now achieved; the third thing was purely for Ye Tianchen’s own enjoyment.

He felt Cang Lang was very strong, likely inconceivably so, and the duel between experts was the most thrilling and blood-pumping, so Ye Tianchen was very much looking forward to fighting Cang Lang.

“However, let me be upfront, I have agreed to your three conditions, but I only have one condition, not sure if you can agree to it?” Cang Lang looked at Ye Tianchen and asked.

“What condition?” Ye Tianchen remained casual.

“No matter what, the mission must be completed, whether you want to have fun or whatever, you must complete the mission because this relates to the development of the entire Dragon Country and even the safety of the whole nation,” Cang Lang said seriously.

“Don’t worry, no problem, now can you bring it over…”

Ye Tianchen thought Cang Lang was going to say something about having to complete the mission, to die completing the mission kind of talk, which Ye Tianchen didn’t overthink.

He was just thinking about meeting those experts from M country’s Superpower Special Agent Team and protecting the personnel to complete the exchange of secret documents.

“Bring what?” Seeing Ye Tianchen stretch out his right hand asking for something, Cang Lang asked, puzzled.

“I say General Cang, haven’t you traveled abroad?

Don’t you need travel expenses when you go on a trip?

And since you employed me, shouldn’t you be the one to cover the expenses?” Ye Tianchen looked at Cang Lang incredulously and said.

“Heh, you really have a way, actually asking me for money like that, alright, how much?” Cang Lang found Ye Tianchen increasingly amusing and asked with a smile.

“Let’s start with ten million to use, and if it’s not enough, I’ll call you,” Ye Tianchen said offhandedly.

“You think I run a bank or something?

Asking for ten million just like that, where would I get that much money.”

No sooner had Ye Tianchen spoken these unreliable words than Cang Lang got anxious, asking straight out for ten million as if he really did print money himself.

“Ye Tianchen, don’t forget your mission and purpose; it’s not a leisure trip,” Tie Hammer said tightly clenching his teeth angrily.

“Not giving it?

Then it might not work out.

Without the funds, how can I go to M country?

How can I tackle the mission?

How can I complete the task?

How can I…”

“Alright, ten million it is, but if you don’t complete the mission, I’ll settle accounts with you when you return,” Cang Lang gritted his teeth and said.

“That’s more like it, brisk, General Cang.

Say, it’s almost dinner time, why don’t we go have some seafood or something?” Ye Tianchen said shamelessly with a laugh.

Cang Lang gave Ye Tianchen a speechless glance, finding this guy an enigmatic freak.

Serious as the Death God at times, laid-back like a tramp at others, now like a foodie; it was the first time someone dared to extort his money and still shamelessly suggest he treat them to a meal.

“Can’t you check the time, kid?

It just passed one o’clock, now it’s two in the afternoon, who eats dinner at two?” Cang Lang said loudly, clearly annoyed.

“Man is iron and food is steel; skip a meal and you’ll feel real deal.

Let’s just call it a snack.

Tiechui, drive to the nearest seafood restaurant, Cang Lang is treating us to a feast,” Ye Tianchen said, chuckling.

Reborn in this life, Ye Tianchen’s greatest interest, other than battling the masters of this age, was eating.

In the apocalypse, having a delicious meal was priceless, worth more than thousands of gold.

It was a brutal, bloody era where too many people had great powers leading to endless slaughter.

Countries ceased to exist, replaced only by organizations representing evil and justice clashing against each other.

Humanity almost went extinct in the apocalypse, with a group of people sacrificing everything to preserve the last flicker of human hope, fighting mutated demon beasts and blocking the dark forces.

This meal was entirely about Cang Lang and Tiechui watching Ye Tianchen eat.

The guy was utterly unapologetic, ordering a whole table full of delicacies like abalone, lobster, and crab, constantly stuffing food into his mouth and occasionally calling out, with a greasy mouth, for Cang Lang and Tiechui to eat too.

It left Cang Lang and Tiechui with heads full of black lines, unable to imagine how someone who could turn into a Death God at any moment could be so carefree.

At this time, Cang Lang and Tiechui were unaware that in Yang Yi’s office, a fierce verbal battle was unfolding, centered around Ye Tianchen.

In Yang Yi’s office, Qin Taoyuan stood next to the sofa, where an elderly man with graying hair and beard, nearly seventy years old and nearing retirement, sat.

He still had a chance to climb higher in the upcoming leadership transition and shine in his last moments of power, pushing the Qin family to greater heights.

This man was Qin Yi, Qin Heng’s grandfather, Mr.

Qin.

“Mr.

Qin, what brings you here?

Please, have some tea,” Yang Yi said with a smile.

Yang Yi may be younger than Qin Yi, but he wasn’t less significant.

After all, Qin Yi was a senior predecessor, and Yang Yi, holding his current position, certainly knew the ins and outs of bureaucratic decorum.

Surface formalities were necessary to avoid giving others a handle against him; many things couldn’t be resolved by bluster and might as well be worn down slowly.

“Mr.

Yang, I won’t beat around the bush.

We’re both busy men, so let me be straightforward.

My grandson Qin Heng was beaten beyond recognition; I hope you can hand over the perpetrator to me for handling.

Let’s make things easy,” Qin Yi said, his expression somewhat unpleasant.

Qin Yi was very protective of his grandson Qin Heng, which explained why Qin Heng had become so arrogant.

Having received a call from his son Qin Taoyuan about Qin Heng’s severe beating and learning the details, Qin Yi immediately came here in a chauffeured car to find Yang Yi and demand an explanation.

“Brother Qin, I’m a bit puzzled by what you’re saying.

It seems I haven’t been shielding the assailant who beat up your grandson, have I?

What’s really going on here?” Yang Yi asked with a puzzled smile.

“Brother Yang, my son Qin Heng was severely beaten at Beifeng Pavilion by Ye Tianchen of the Capital City Ye family.

Just as I and the Director of the Public Security Bureau, Lu Shengda, were about to arrest him, your subordinate, General Cang Lang, appeared, declaring he was taking Ye Tianchen away.

The audacity was really something, boldly taking away the man who beat my son, relying on who knows whose clout,” Qin Taoyuan said, his words laden with insinuation as he looked at Yang Yi.

Hearing Qin Taoyuan’s words, Yang Yi furrowed his brows deeply.

If it weren’t for Qin Yi’s presence, he might have had the guards throw Qin Taoyuan out right away.

As a respectable leader, he was not someone whom Qin Taoyuan could speak to on equal terms.

Even Qin Yi, though he could discuss matters, wouldn’t dare to give commands.

“Is that so?

Are you implying that I deliberately opposed your Qin family and rescued Ye Tianchen?” Yang Yi asked coldly.

“I might…”

“Shut up and get out.

You don’t have the right to speak here,” Qin Taoyuan tried to say more but was harshly interrupted and scolded by his father, Qin Yi.

“Dad…” freёweɓnovel.com

“Get out!” Qin Yi shouted loudly.

Fuming, Qin Taoyuan could only leave Yang Yi’s office, while Qin Yi looked at Yang Yi with a slight smile and said, “Brother Yang, we’re both regularly involved in governmental discussions and mutual assistance is appropriate.

My son is immature and impulsive, I hope you won’t take it to heart.”

“Heh, Brother Qin, you’re too kind.

Regarding the matter of your grandson being beaten, I genuinely wasn’t aware.

Shall I make a call to Cang Lang now to inquire?” Yang Yi, a very clever man, although clueless about the specifics, understood that Cang Lang’s rescue of Ye Tianchen was part of a mission to escort someone overseas in exchange for secret information.

As for the Qin family, accustomed to flaunting Qin Yi’s power, they often behaved recklessly.

“No need, it’s just a minor issue that I can handle.

I just wanted to inform you, Brother Yang.

However, if it was indeed your subordinate who took the perpetrator away, I hope you can hand him over to the Qin family.

Such a villain dared to act so outrageously in Capital City; who knows what major trouble he might cause in the future?

He must be severely punished,” Qin Yi stood up and said with a smile.
