Fatal Strike: Paladins Mercenary Road

Chapter 17 Middleman

Tachileik, a border city between Myanmar and China, has a unique scene of "one city, two countries".

In addition to sharing a city with Thailand, Laos is a few kilometers east along the Mekong River.

Standing at the high point of Tachileik, you can overlook the three countries on both sides of the Mekong River. It is a veritable border point and a very important port city for Myanmar's trade with Thailand.

Since the Mekong River case, the drug trade in the Golden Triangle has shrunk to a certain extent, but it has been replaced by more developed online gambling and telecommunications fraud businesses.

Most people cannot imagine that, at this stage in 14, this place where ordinary people even have trouble getting food has quite good electricity and network telecommunications infrastructure compared to similar backward areas.

It is impossible for the Burmese store and the Thai government to invest money in this. These are all things that the actual local controllers have done themselves in order to make money.

Shanying was lying in a hotel room with a simple splint on his right leg, looking extremely disheveled.

In the same room with him was a killer bee...

This magical creature, who can be either male or female, sat on a chair with his legs over the edge of the bed, peeling an apple and saying, "I advise you to eat something, otherwise you may not have a good time in the next few days."

Shanying waved his hand and said, "No, eating more won't help me..."

As he spoke, Shanying glanced at Killer Bee's indifferent expression. He thought for a moment and said, "Are you familiar with Daqili?"

Killer Bee shook his head and said, “I’m not familiar with him. My hometown is in Chiang Rai. I’ve been here a few times and helped a local middleman to handle some matters.

That guy happens to be the middleman of this transaction, so I will take you to a place later, where you will be detained for a period of time before being handed over to Naukan. "

After hearing this, Shanying said in confusion, "I don't quite understand. Xuehu said before that Naukan has a secret base here. Now that the deal has been reached, why are we beating around the bush?"

Killer Bee looked at Mountain Eagle and sneered, "Do you think $100 million is so easy to get?

Daqili is not Naukan's territory, and he is not a fool...

Moreover, any normal person who wants to get money from a drug lord must be extremely cautious. If he rashly contacts Naukan to execute a transaction, the first thing he will think of is a trap.

Shanying, to survive in a place like this, you must have a reliable middleman, otherwise you will find that you can’t do anything because no one will trust you!
In chaotic places, without the help of a middleman, you can easily be scammed even if you go out to find a prostitute."

Shanying nodded and said, "Then are your friends reliable?"

Killer Bee glanced at Mountain Eagle with an ambiguous look, shook his head and said, "That man is called 'Lao Jin', a well-known middleman in Daqili. I just helped him with some things, but we are not friends.

Shanying, you are someone that Blood Fox favors, and you are a good person, but this is the Golden Triangle area. If you can't adjust, I advise you not to take the risk."

Killer Bee glanced at his watch and said, "We will leave in an hour. It's not too late for you to regret now."

The mountain eagle didn't seem to be afraid...

He recuperated in Su Village for nearly half a month. Although his right leg had not fully recovered, he could barely walk.

Originally, he wanted to rest for a while, but Blood Fox used Lomai's intelligence to contact the Thai military, and the process went smoothly, exceeding their expectations of the Thais' efficiency...

Now the Thai military is ready, but they can't wait any longer, so the plan has been brought forward.

The entire transaction process has been rehearsed many times, and there are many problems with the details, but no matter what, he must meet Naukan alive in the end...

Because the drug lord spent $100 million, he couldn't just let anyone kill him. Shanying had expected to suffer a little, but as long as he could kill Naukan, everything would be worth it.

Looking at the killer bee who didn't seem nervous, Shanying hesitated for a moment and said, "Since that Lao Jin is a famous middleman, is it really okay for us to use him like this?"

Killer Bee was stunned for a moment, and said with a surprised expression: "We use him? Are you kidding?
I will send you to him, he will be responsible for verifying your identity, then give us the money and hand you over to Naukan. He will take a 30% commission from this process...

He is only responsible for the safety of the transaction. After the people and money leave his territory, what does our fight against Naukan have to do with him? "

Shanying listened and digested it for a while before he understood the logic behind it...

He looked at the killer bee as if it was a matter of course, shook his head and said: “You dare to call yourself a famous middleman?
In this shabby place called the Golden Triangle, isn’t the cost of ‘credibility’ too high? ”

Killer Bee shook his head with amusement and said, "Unless you are a long-term partner, what else do you want if I deny you?
This is what temporary middlemen do. They are not babysitters. Isn’t it enough that they help you avoid the risk of being cheated in transactions?"

Shanying sat up and poured himself a glass of water, then said a little uncomfortably, "I just feel that it's not right that the middleman took 30% of the transaction and neither party got any guarantee in the end..."

Killer Bee heard this and sneered, “We got the money and Naukan got the people, isn’t that enough?

And is 30% a lot?
It only costs $4 to kill a presidential candidate in the Philippines, but the killer may only get $2000 in the end.

The international intermediary company that Xuehu used as an investigator is recognized as the most suitable platform for newcomers. They take 40% from every transaction.

Shanying, the money circulating in the underground world is different from the money circulating in normal society. Sometimes the more money you have, the more it depreciates...

We are willing to work for Blood Fox not because the old guy is generous, but because although the commission he offers us is not high, the money he gives us is legal income after laundering, and it is not easy to make mistakes when working with him.

It is true that Lao Jin seems to have done nothing but still gets 30%. He is responsible for ensuring the transaction is completed while laundering the money.

And this is a necessary process, without which Naukan would not have appeared at all.”

Killer Bee licked the corner of her sexy mouth and said with a smile: "A rookie like you has a lot to learn, but I can teach you..."

Shanying rubbed the goose bumps on his arms, sat at the far end of the bed, and said, "I don't think this is necessary..."

As he spoke, Mountain Eagle's eyes collided with Killer Bee's playful gaze. He subconsciously dodged it and said, "Why haven't Big Mouth and the others arrived yet? I'm ready..."

Killer Bee rolled his eyes at the Mountain Eagle who was avoiding his passion, stood up and took off his clothes, revealing his androgynous body...

He deliberately wandered in front of Shanying for a while, and after Shanying helplessly turned his eyes away and raised his middle finger, he laughed and changed into a women's suit...

Red pencil pants, white shirt, small suit...

With eyebrows drawn, lipstick and hair wax applied, a mercenary who lacked masculinity suddenly turned into a heroic female boss.

After everything was ready, Killer Bee looked at his watch, then walked up to Mountain Eagle and said jokingly, "Today, Lao Jin invited a group of local bigwigs to a party, and Blood Fox also got in. He is the leader of a Russian gang...

But Blood Fox can't always take care of you...

Are you ready for some pain, boy? "
