Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 126 The Old Accountant Sees the Light

Eddie looked at Shanying's fuss, and he clapped his hands and laughed as if he had won a prize, saying, "I'm not kidding. Many people know about this. At that time, the Americans even sent out warships to encircle Faiz's stronghold...

Finally, the Philippines protested and the U.S. Navy withdrew.

The outside world thought that the Philippines was challenging its own father, but in fact it was Faiz who sent a bomb and several bodies of American sailors into the Philippine presidential palace, which made them compromise.

Southeast Asia is very poor, and the U.S. military's military expenditures are very expensive. Without sufficient motivation, the matter soon came to nothing."

As Eddie looked at the surprised Mountain Eagle, he smiled and said, “Of course, Faiz is just a special case.

The reality is that most transnational criminal groups of a certain scale will have some contact with spy agents, but they sometimes pretend not to know each other's identities.

Otherwise, do you think those spy organizations are really all-powerful and can monitor the entire world?
A lot of their so-called top-secret intelligence was bought from underground organizations!"

Shanying shook his head and said, "I still don't understand. If it's true as you said, the agents know a lot about the underground world, then the underground organization could be wiped out at any time."

Eddie was stunned for a moment, then spread his hands and said, "This is a bit complicated..."

Looking at the expression on Eddie's face, Shanying knew that he had asked this guy a question that he didn't know...

He knew that Eddie would not lie to him, but maybe he couldn't understand the logic behind it.

Shanying can infer some internal logic from the results, but it is still a little unclear...

When the car fell silent, Mr. Poincare in the back seat suddenly said, "Because of money..."

"what?"

Shanying didn't hear it clearly. He looked through the rearview mirror and said, "What did you just say?"

Mr. Poincare played with an old pocket watch and said in a slightly flat tone: "Because money is the key to connecting the whole world.

Behind every large-scale criminal organization, there is an intricate network, and money is the key to connecting this network.

As far as I know, the major shareholder behind the M.A Group that Kirilenko worked for is Victor Vekselberg...

He is also a shareholder of Aeroflot, a major Russian energy oligarch, and even became the largest shareholder of the National Bank of Cyprus last year.”

Shanying frowned and said: "That's the umbrella. If you want to destroy a certain organization, you must first destroy the umbrella behind it.

If the umbrella behind them is strong enough, then the CIA and MI6 will also have to restrain themselves.”

Mr. Poincare listened, shook his head and laughed, saying: "You are wrong. The purpose of the umbrella is to protect this industry and to protect the people who run this industry so that they can be treated fairly by the law, rather than to protect the people who run this industry after they have made a big mistake.

The key is the industry, not the people who run the industry!
When the person who runs the black industry shows signs of getting out of control or does something that may harm the interests of the major shareholders behind the scenes, he will die.

For example, Escobar of Colombia, he integrated the small and medium-sized criminal groups in Colombia at that time, and then wanted to run for election himself...

Escobar wanted to jump out of the industry, but America and the CIA wouldn't allow it. Then came the drug war in Florida, the drug war in Colombia, and then the rise of Mexican drug dealers.

This is an industrial transfer driven by external forces, and most people involved don’t even know the logic behind it.

Even if one umbrella falls, a new one will take its place, the black industry will still exist, and things will not change.

What limits organizations like the CIA and MI6 is not strength but the law...

They are not legal in themselves, so all the evidence they provide cannot be used in court.

Moreover, he himself is also a member of the black world. Once they cross the line, they will be retaliated or even besieged."

Mr. Poincare looked at the horrified Shanying and said in a deep voice, "Shanying, if you understand the law in depth, you will find that the law is not fair, and sometimes it can't even be relatively fair.

Because the laws were written by those on the ceiling, just as the earliest laws were designed to protect the lives and property of the nobles.

It’s no different now…

The same law can produce completely different results for different people.

Every country has its own special laws, and the common feature of these laws is that they protect or even serve certain special industry groups.

For example, the tax rate paid by the rich in almost all countries is much lower than that of the middle class...

For example, in almost all countries, the cost of financial violations is much lower than the cost of personal violations...

Mountain, this is the power of money!
Blood Fox has roughly told me about your plan. In the eyes of an old accountant like me, you have a much brighter future than these old guys who only know how to make money with guns. You have a chance to grasp the power of money..."

Shanying was immersed in Mr. Poincare's description. Faced with the sudden compliment, he was stunned for a few seconds. He said sincerely: "Thank you for your compliment, but I still don't understand a lot of things, so if I do anything wrong, please tell me directly."

Mr. Poincare nodded modestly and said, “Me too!
People in our industry always hope to have more smart people like you among their clients!"

Eddie in the co-pilot seat obviously didn't understand what Mr. Poincare said...

Although this guy no longer has to work so hard to make money like he did in the past, he lacks a clear understanding of a series of things such as politics, class, power model, organizational structure, etc.

Such people have a similar characteristic or thought, which is 'this has nothing to do with me'...

But when you feel that these things have nothing to do with you, you will never be able to touch that invisible ceiling.

It is not a bad thing to have less ambition. As long as you can accept your own "fate" calmly, the less you know, the happier you may be. Religious people generally have less internal friction, which may also have something to do with this.

The more you read, the higher the level you are exposed to, and the closer you are to the truth of the world...

The "truth" sometimes gives rise to the ambition to strive, but sometimes makes some people with weak wills become cynical.

Shanying has been struggling in normal society for many years but still can't see it clearly...

But with a few bowls of old wine in the past period of time as a foundation, when the underground world laid out its rules nakedly before his eyes, a professional gently pointed it out, and the fog in front of his eyes was immediately cleared.

Mr. Poincare probably never imagined that he had only broken a layer of window paper, and a monster would be born in the underworld several years later.

The car fell into silence for a moment...

The mountain eagle was digesting what he had learned, Mr. Poincare folded his arms and closed his eyes. Eddie vaguely felt as if he was being despised. He pondered for a while but couldn't get to the point and finally fell asleep.

An hour later, Shanying drove the car to the Ao Nang Beach...

Luo Yang was quite reliable. When Shanying got off the car, he saw dozens of people wearing masks busy in the small courtyard of the office...

A large amount of construction waste was loaded onto the truck, and in just about three hours, the office courtyard became empty.

Tessa was standing on the roadside with Supa and Gru from the 191st Special Forces. When they saw the mountain eagle appear, Tessa came over with an angry look on her face and said unhappily, "I'm leaving soon. Are you satisfied?"

Shanying was stunned for a moment, and said in confusion: "What happened? What am I satisfied with?"

Shanying pointed at Eddie and Mr. Poincare and said, "I just went to pick up my two friends...

This is Eddie, this is Mr. Poincare..."

Tessa politely nodded to Eddie and Mr. Poincare, then squinted her eyes and looked at Shanying up and down, and said, "Didn't you ask my brother to transfer me away?"

Mountain Eagle frowned and said, "Where are you going?"

Tessa saw that Shanying didn't seem to be acting, so she gritted her teeth and said, "Tagore kicked me out of the investigation team. He asked me to go to Pattaya and wait for orders..."

Shanying suddenly said: "There will probably be action in Pattaya. Tagore will use the power of the investigation team to break through the defense of the US military base in Pattaya.

All US troops stationed abroad have criminal immunity. You couldn’t do anything to them in the past, but it’s different now.

Tagore is asking you to finish the matter. His identity as an investigation team makes it inconvenient for him to disclose what he finds, but it is different for you...

Tessa, you are brother and sister, but at this time you are in different positions and can do different things.

By tearing apart the reputation of the US military, not only can a group of kidnapped girls be rescued, but also the situation can be used to demand further investigation and find a way to bring back the girls trapped in Bahrain.

Thailand will have big changes. These are not just legal justice, these are bargaining chips, very important bargaining chips for you!"

Tessa wasn't against going to Pattaya, she just didn't want to be kicked out of a very exciting investigation team...

After hearing Shanying's explanation, Tessa squinted at him and said, "You and Tagore said the same thing. Did you collude with each other?"

Shanying shook his head decisively and said, "Of course not..."

Tessa grabbed Shanying's arm and said viciously, "If you come with me to Pattaya, I will believe that you and Tagore are not in the same group."

Upon hearing this, Shanying shook his head helplessly and said, "I have guests, and I have important things to do..."

While Shanying was trying to evade Tessa, Mr. Poincare, who was a little too hot to stand, took off his suit and held it in his hand. Then he extended his hand to Tessa very gentlemanly and said, "My beautiful lady, we don't mind letting Shanying go to Pattaya with you...

But before he leaves, can he take me to the hotel first?

I need a place to work, and cool is the best companion for work..."

Tessa was a little embarrassed by Mr. Poincare's attitude, and she said apologetically: "I'm so sorry for wasting your time.

But it's all this guy's fault. I helped him so much, but he just ran away without saying a word.

And I heard that he is planning to go to Russia, and I don’t even know when he will come back…”

Mr. Poincare wiped the sweat from his forehead and said to the mountain eagle: "As a gentleman, I should not let down the kindness of a beautiful lady."

Mr. Poincare glanced at the busy office and waved his hand, saying, "If this is the office you prepared, then I can only say that it is unsatisfactory.

I will make a list of requirements and you will pass it to the person in charge and have them carry out the construction according to the requirements.

Leave professional matters to professionals, and then go to Pattaya and bring back the people you need.”

Shanying was confused and asked, "Who is in Pattaya?"

Eddie gloated over Mr. Poincare, who was almost unable to stand due to the heat. He smiled and said, "This old guy can't work if he leaves the 22-degree office environment...

Send him to the hotel quickly, otherwise he will be melted by the heat in less than an hour, haha..."

Eddie looked at the puzzled Shanying and said with a smile: "I'll explain it to you on the way..."
