The unparalleled talent of the country started from Harbin Institute of Technology

March 1998, Bangkok, Thailand, on a highway near the airport.

Five black SUVs sped toward the airport.

Behind and in front of the SUV, there were several ordinary cars, moving at a moderate speed, but alternating back and forth.

Clearly, acting rashly would come at a heavy price.

"McCain, do you think they might intercept us halfway?"

"I bet they don't have that kind of guts."

"Hehe, don't bet anymore. When they really come, you guys better not turn into cowards."

"Fuck, bullshit, how could I possibly be scared?"

“Someone said the same thing last time, but unfortunately, he was so scared that he couldn’t walk and then he went to meet God.”

"Hiss, are those counterfeit money rings really that ruthless?"

Inside an ordinary bus, people were discussing something.

Their orders were to follow the off-road vehicle and simulate being intercepted halfway.

If an accident does occur, the battle must be resolved as quickly as possible, and the person captured and taken away.

"What do you think?"

McCain smiled mysteriously and said in a low voice:

“My former squad leader led us on a mission in South America. We also took important members of the counterfeit money group to the interrogation room, but unfortunately, we were intercepted halfway there.”

"A team of nearly one hundred people, plus more than two hundred local police officers, after a major battle, only a dozen or so survived, and the number of casualties exceeded one hundred and fifty. What do you think?"

hiss!
McCain didn't even need to describe the specific battle situation; the sheer number of casualties was enough to make everyone in the car gasp.

Everyone's hearts tightened.

This is no small matter.

so horrible!

Just as everyone was in shock, an explosion suddenly rang in their ears.

"Fuck, stop the car!"

McCain's expression changed drastically, and he quickly spoke, while simultaneously beginning to take action.

A kilometer away on the highway, the lead SUV had been overturned by the bomb and was burning fiercely, with thick smoke rising into the air.

Meanwhile, on the other side, several people got out of the car, armed with submachine guns, rocket launchers, and other weapons, as well as sniper rifles in the distance.

In conclusion, the team that came to hijack the convoy was aggressive and well-prepared.

McCain, who quickly assessed the situation, immediately gave orders for everyone to take cover and advance in shifts, determined to leave the enemy there.

At that moment, many drones suddenly appeared in the distance, at least a hundred of them.

The appearance of the drone, with its loud buzzing sound, attracted the attention of many people in the vicinity.

However, CIA agents on the ground were helpless against the drones because they were thousands of meters in the air, out of the reach of bullets.

Moreover, with over a hundred of them, it's not something ground troops can clear out in a short time.

The entire highway section has descended into chaos.

Fortunately, there were relatively few cars nearby, so the impact was manageable.

A few minutes later, the SUV was riddled with bullets.

The two salespeople who had already been arrested were actually kidnapped by the CIA captain and used as a shield.

As a result of the captain's suicidal behavior, he was targeted by a sniper in the distance, who blew off his gun hand in one shot, and the next bullet blew off his head.

It turned out that among the rescue team were several snipers, and very skilled ones at that.

Under such circumstances, the actions of the CIA captain naturally angered the other side, and he was subsequently killed.

After all, if the counterfeit money group's sales are concealed, then the people sent by Want Want Group might really be unable to deal with the captain.

It's much simpler now.

Bang bang bang!
Amid the sound of gunfire, the two captured salesmen were quickly and successfully rescued.

"Andy, are you alright?"

"Help me untie this!"

The salesman, known as Andy, turned cold. After his silver bracelet was removed, he quickly grabbed a submachine gun and started firing wildly at the people opposite him.

This is revenge, this is retaliation.

One magazine was quickly emptied, and then Andy quickly replaced it with another magazine.

After firing three magazines in succession, Andy finally calmed down a bit.

"Andy, retreat!"

The opposing side has been suppressed to the point of being unable to raise their heads. If they don't take this opportunity to leave, they may be surrounded by the enemy's reinforcements.

A few minutes later, Andy and his group had already retreated.

Dozens of drones carrying large amounts of explosives were dropped hundreds or thousands of meters behind Andy and his men.

In an instant, the area around the highway was engulfed in flames, and explosions were heard incessantly.

The entire rescue operation lasted for more than ten minutes, which was not very fast, but not too slow either.

The only unfortunate thing was that the other salesman who was arrested along with Andy was killed in the chaos of the earlier shootout.

It was a one-shot kill; he was shot several more times afterward, and was finished off by a CIA agent.

A little over an hour later, Andy met Martinez at an ordinary villa in the suburbs of Bangkok.

"Boss, I'm sorry, I..."

"You should indeed apologize, but not to me. You should apologize to the Want Want Group. If you hadn't been so arrogant and complacent, how could this have happened?"

Martinez snorted angrily, feeling utterly disappointed.

Andy's arrest was largely due to his personality and character.

The most important point is that he was betrayed by his subordinates.

The new CIA director, Vittorio Fleming, is quite capable.

By leveraging intelligence and winning people's hearts, they quickly obtained some clues about the super dollar factory, and then followed the trail to Andy.

Furthermore, they were quite cautious, wanting to dig deeper rather than decisively closing the net.

However, Andy was indeed impossible to bribe, so when Andy pretended to agree to be a traitor and then turned around and ran away, the CIA immediately caught him red-handed.

After all, the CIA had been planning this for so long, how could they possibly let Andy escape?
As a result, Andy was quickly apprehended.

The situation of the other salesperson was actually not much different.

That's all there is to it.

Now that Martinez's initial plan to come to Bangkok has been achieved, the next step is to launch a counterattack.

Super Dollar Factory will never tolerate being bullied and will never stand idly by.

Upon returning to New York, Martinez proposed a "breeding poison" plan at an internal meeting of Want Want Group executives.

"I'm prepared to allocate two billion US dollars to cultivate several prospective directors within the CIA, the Pentagon, and other mid-to-high-level departments."

"Once they've trained him enough, assassinate Vittorio Fleming, remove him from office, and then have one of our own take over the director position."

"As long as Jefferson and Clinton were in office, we had to secure several important positions, including the Director of the CIA."

"From now on, our people can't be captured by the other side. We'll only be the ones putting on a show with the CIA, instead of being the ones suddenly attacked."

After the plan to raise Gu poison was proposed, Zheng Baoyin and the others were stunned for a while before they started discussing it.

To be honest, this plan is excellent, especially for their super dollar factory; it's absolutely worthwhile.

Two billion dollars may seem like a lot, but every year so many people are killed by CIA agents, including many sales and management personnel.

The losses were considerable.

Faced with this situation, the Super Dollar Factory must change.

Isn't it just bribery?

Let's see who has more money.

If the CIA director and other high-ranking officials are all their own people, then the 'mole' agents they've trained will be easily discovered.

When the time comes, eliminating the traitors will be easy, won't it?

From the current perspective, Martinez's proposed plan is excellent.

Even Wang Duoyu, who participated in the meeting, thought it was very good after listening to it, and that it was entirely feasible to implement such a plan.

Thus, the plan to raise treacherous insects was approved.

However, Martinez's revenge has not yet begun; the plan to "raise poison" is a medium- to long-term strategy, and its effects will not be seen in the short term.

The so-called retaliation was actually quite simple: just spend money to find people in the Middle East and arrange for those bearded men to carry bombs and blow up the CIA's local agencies.

Heh, only when the opponent feels pain is it a true act of revenge. For a time, from March until April, CIA branches around the world were engulfed in conflict.

Just as the Qingming Festival was approaching in China, in Europe, the castle owner, Sorenros, had already begun to take action.

"Where are the people we arranged?"

"Master, perhaps we should perhaps refrain from seeking revenge?"

The butler's answer made Soren Ross frown.
"What do you want to say?"

"Sir, we've already reviewed their information. They are indeed incredibly powerful. We still don't know their exact location. If we go directly to retaliate against the Somali peninsula..."

The underground dark world has no idea who took away the weapons-grade enriched uranium from before.

Sorenross can confirm one thing: Damazin on the Somali peninsula acquired this batch of enriched uranium.

Behind Damazin stands the international capital giant Lord Ring Capital.

Soren Rose attempted to investigate the Lord of the Rings Bank through both legitimate and criminal channels in Europe, but found nothing.

The Lord of the Rings Bank is backed by Lord of the Rings Capital, but there is absolutely no further information available.

Therefore, Lord of the Rings Capital has a large number of shareholders, all of whom hold shares in each other. Just figuring out these relationships and who among these shareholders holds more shares is a huge problem.

Not to mention that these capital entities also have cross-shareholdings with other financial companies, foundations, and so on.

There are even many foundations that are merely things on paper, having previously existed like ghosts, almost non-existent.

It's like those one-time accounts; such a person might have applied for many bank accounts before death, but there's no money in them, and they remain peacefully dormant, never to be activated.

Once it's activated, it's just a money transfer, nothing more.

Once the transfer is complete, the account will remain dormant and may never be used again.

One person can apply for several bank cards at one bank using their name.

Take the United States as an example; they have hundreds or even thousands of banks in the country.

In that case, there would be far too many of them wanting to obtain similar accounts.

Wang Duoyu remembered seeing a news article in his past life about American social security accounts, where someone was nearly two hundred years old and still receiving social security benefits.

It’s simply outrageous to open the door for outrageous things. It’s so outrageous.

Therefore, Soren Ross was completely unable to investigate the secrets related to finance.

Moreover, Want Want Group cannot simply stand by and watch the other party investigate, so it will naturally make things more difficult for them.

For example, they could arrange for high-ranking officials such as members of Congress, police chiefs, and mayors to cause trouble for these investigators and find fault with them.

They even directly warned these people to stop there and not to investigate any further.

There are always more solutions than problems, so it's not an easy task to investigate thoroughly.

Unless Sorenross is willing to pay a much higher price, a price so high that the investigators risk their lives.

Otherwise, is it possible?

Even investigating the identity of the Want Want Group is so difficult.

Not to mention anything else.

Now that Soren Rose wants revenge, he needs to know exactly who his enemies are, right?
So what if Somalia was the last country to receive this batch of enriched uranium?

The other party might just be a buyer, nothing more.

It might even be just a bargain.

The team responsible for transporting these vehicles loaded with enriched uranium was Longkui Security, a relatively unknown company internationally.

And no one knows where this company is headquartered.

Sorenros could track the location of satellite positioning chips inside enriched uranium.

However, they were unable to locate the Longkui Company.

How can you talk about revenge if you don't even know who your opponent is?

"What you said makes a lot of sense, but I can't swallow this."

After the butler finished speaking, Soren Ross still shook his head and said:
"The most important point is that the Somali peninsula is completely different now than before. Perhaps we've all been deceived; the Somali peninsula may have already been secretly unified, and the fighting is just a facade."

"Make the arrangements. Send someone to invest in the Somali peninsula. Make sure it's done discreetly; absolutely, absolutely do not reveal our purpose."

"Another point is that so many of Lord Ring Capital's companies have gone to invest in the Somali peninsula, including satellite launch sites and numerous photovoltaic power plants. Hehe, that's a treasure trove waiting to be developed."

Profit is what Soren Ross is after.

In other words, many global investors have not yet discovered the treasure trove that is the Somali Peninsula, so at this time, Soren Ross rushed in to seize a position there.

The future is uncertain, but it could certainly bring massive profits.

Seeing this, the butler had no choice but to nod in agreement.

What can we do if we disagree?
After all, it was Sorenros who made the decision, not him, the steward.

Northeast China, Dahonggou Village.

Early April, Qingming Festival.

The large flat area in the village was filled with parked cars.

These cars all came back from outside, and most of them belonged to the Wang family, with only a few belonging to the villagers.

In the entire Dahonggou Village, or even the entire Shuanghe County, who doesn't know that the Wang family has prospered and produced a great figure?
Qingming Festival is a day for ancestor worship. No matter how powerful a person is outside, when it comes to one of the four major traditional festivals in China, they still have to return to their hometown to worship their ancestors.

Crackling and popping.
In front of the grave, firecrackers of a thousand, ten thousand, or even a hundred thousand shots were piled up together, forming a small mountain.

Once lit, it was like the start of a war; the sound was extremely loud, and the noise was outrageously loud.

"Wow~"

The little brat, Bai Doufu, was so frightened by the distant firecrackers and billowing smoke that he burst into tears.

Even though she was in the car, which blocked out most of the firecracker noise, she wasn't wearing noise-canceling headphones, so she was startled.

However, Wang Yifei was not afraid because she was wearing noise-canceling headphones, so the sound of firecrackers didn't bother her.

After the firecrackers were set off, the elder in the family, Wang Duoyu's third brother Wang Duozhi, called on everyone to kowtow and pay respects to their ancestors.

The scene was quite shocking.

The Wang family is now very large; it has become an extremely large clan.

Despite the current policy that each family should have one or two children.

However, it seems to have been 'virtually ignored' by the Wang family.

Leaving aside Wang Duoyu himself, let's talk about Wang Jianchao.

This guy only has one legally married wife, but he has many wives in other regions.

So he had twelve sons and fifteen daughters.

These are not illegitimate children, they are children.

Today, he brought most of them back.

And some of them were not brought back because they were either newborns or still in the womb.

It's already 1998.

The changes in Dahonggou Village are significant, and the changes in the Wang family are even greater.

With such a large population, the ancestral worship ceremony was naturally a very grand affair.

The child with fewer children in the family is probably Wang Duoyu's younger brother, Wang Duoshi.

His brother went to settle in New Zealand.

Rarely comes back.

I come back once or twice a year, either for the Qingming Festival, the Spring Festival, or the National Day.

Logically speaking, they should be living a relaxed, retired life there, which should be even better, since having children is a tradition and there are no other constraints.

But Wang Duoshi did only have three children, which was not many.

Among Wang Duoyu's many brothers and sisters, Wang Duoshi has the fewest children.

However, everyone has their own ambitions.

After the ancestral worship ceremony, the family gathered together for a meal, which consisted of a whopping fifty-two tables – truly an exaggeration.

Well, Wang Jianchao has too many wives and children; they're taking up several tables.

"Jianchao, you'd better donate more next time. Look, your family has already taken up almost six tables. I bet next time your family will take up eight tables, right?"

At the main table, Wang Meili, sitting next to Wang Jianchao, couldn't help but laugh and joke.

This amount of money is truly a drop in the ocean for everyone present.

Because they usually give their children hundreds of thousands or even millions of yuan in pocket money, while the standard for a meal at home, per table, is only five thousand yuan.

This is already the highest it can go, because prices in China aren't that high right now. (End of Chapter)
