Section 1264 - Rookie

"Welcome, Mr. Berg!"

The tavern is Li Bai's home field, and there is nothing wrong with what he said.

The captain of the mercenary "Wolf's Tooth Cross" rubbed his hands together and said cautiously: "We collect a batch of tanzanite and a small amount of moonstone. ”

Before that, he accepted a commission from Li Bai.

When I was dining in the tavern, I happened to see this employer and hurriedly ran over to say hello.

"Where's that?"

Li Bai's eyebrows raised.

I just cast a wide net with my hands, but I didn't expect this mercenary team to take it seriously.

"Why don't you take a look at the sample first?"

Berg, the captain of the "Wolf's Tooth Cross Team", was a little nervous, but he actually didn't know the bottom of his heart.

I have been worried before, if Li Bai doesn't want it, he will have to entrust the broker to find a way to get rid of it, and it is not a way to press it on his hand for a long time.

After all, the mercenary team eats and chews every day, and the cost is not low, and everyone needs money.

The sample in Berg's mouth was intended to be shown to the brokers in the tavern.

It is inevitable that you will be sucked a lot of water, but the broker settles the money quickly, often in cash, which is also a matter of no choice.

"Okay!

Li Bai didn't hesitate too much, and nodded immediately.

"Please follow me!"

Berg respectfully led the way in front and led Li Bai to a large table.

Many people's eyes chased the two, guessing Li Bai's identity.

Whenever a new face appears, the special guests who reside in the tavern inevitably have to take a curious look.

Some well-informed people recognized Li Bai as the true owner of this tavern, and they all raised their glasses and nodded in greeting.

This is a bit like the description in martial arts, on the surface, it seems to be a simple and cheap broken fly restaurant, and the endless stream of diners is not only from the three religions and nine streams, but also Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, with another layer of identity that scares people to death.

In other words, the inside of this tavern is simply a large-scale pretending scene.

Li Bai didn't know what kind of fame there was, and who made him the shopkeeper.

Just open a tavern, someone comes to drink and eat, make a little money, what does he do so much?

Since its opening, it has not been here for half a month, and who would have thought that the tavern would become a gathering place in the gray area.

The "Wolf Tooth Cross Team" wrapped a big table in the tavern, there were three or four team members, chatting with each other, when they saw the captain with someone coming, they thought it was an ordinary broker, so they looked away, but they saw clearly that the person behind Berg was Li Bai, and they stood up in surprise one by one.

"The boss is here, bring the box!"

Berg gestured.

A stainless steel box that had been placed on the table was immediately pushed over.

"Take a look! I have three kinds of goods here, but the number of low-grade goods is the least, less than one percent, and the quality is still guaranteed. ”

As he spoke, Berg opened the box in front of Li Bai and took out the storage boxes inside one by one.

Although they are all rough and have not undergone much processing, they are carefully protected and lined with silk cotton to prevent damage from severe vibrations.

One by one, the people nearby craned their necks and cast their gaze over to the contents of the box.

They were already very curious, and now they are eager to see it.

The gray stones have dispelled the curiosity of many people, and there is nothing to see at all.

However, some people with a little bit of vision couldn't help but be surprised that there were mercenaries pouring out the rough stones of tanzanite and moonstone, which was tantamount to a butcher selling flowers.

There was a commotion in the tavern for a while, and soon it was as if nothing had happened, and it quickly regained its calm, and no one looked at it again.

Berg's expression was still calm, he had expected this situation, it was just a small pile of rough gems, and it was not worth the idea of those greedy fellows to fight them.

I picked up a few rough stones, and the glass heart was put away.

Li Bai put these stones back in the storage box and asked, "How many quantities, I want them all!"

"Here's a list for you to look at!"

Berg smiled and handed over a piece of paper.

Look at the give?!

Li Bai narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Is it black?"

The mercenaries trade both good and evil, just like those armed men, today as officers and soldiers, tomorrow as bandits, as long as the money is in place, they can do anything.

As for what is the festival?

Can this thing be eaten as a meal?

The answer is obvious.

Berg, the captain of the "Wolf's Tooth Cross Team", hesitated for a moment, but quickly nodded.

"Yes!"

It seems that it is also a no-brainer deal.

As long as you can get rid of it as soon as possible and return the cash, the price will naturally be easy to say.

"Well, twenty thousand dollars?"

Li Bai tentatively quoted a price.

He understood the market price and directly discounted it.

In other words, as long as this batch of rough stones can be mixed into formal channels, it may not make four times the profit, but two times can definitely be guaranteed.

Berg slapped the table and said neatly: "Deal!"

Seeing the other party's reaction, Li Bai knew that his report was high, and maybe he could get it for $10,000, it was nothing more than a little more bargaining.

But he didn't bother to waste all this effort, saying that as much as the price is, it is as much as the price, and it is neat, and everyone saves trouble.

"When will it be delivered?"

Li Bai held the stainless steel box containing the sample rough in his hand.

Since he wants all of them, then these samples naturally belong to him.

"I want cash notes, can I?"

Berg smiled.

Although the transfer is convenient, it is easy to be blacked out by the officials, and the mercenaries who wander in the gray area are often disliked by those governments, just like scolding the cook while eating from the bowl, and the cook (mercenary) has no place to reason at all.

It is still convenient for cash, not easy to be supervised, and convenient for money laundering.

Syllable!

Two stacks of 10,000 dollar bills landed on the table.

There is no shortage of cash in Li Bai's storage ring, which is a Chinese characteristic.

If it were in the United States, I am afraid that the FBI would come to the door as soon as possible and ask about the cash.

If you dare to say half a sentence clearly, you will wait for the banknotes to be confiscated, the people will wash their butts, and they will wait for the bottom of the prison to sit through.

A person who can throw out $20,000 in cash can definitely be called a high roller, which makes the captain of the "Wolf Tooth Cross Team" have an unexpected surprise of hugging his big thick legs.

As for the kind of big high-rollers who throw millions, or even tens of millions of dollars, Berg can't even think of it.

When dealing with such a big person, you have to be 120,000 points careful, and if you are not careful, you will even swallow your bones, and it is a kind of luck to be able to leave the whole corpse in the end.

"Where's the stuff?"

Berg took a deep breath, not wanting to miss the cash out of his eyes.

"Right here, is it okay?"

Li Bai pointed to the ground.

One hand of cash, one hand of spot, Tong Su is not bullied, fair trade.

"No problem, please wait a moment and let them bring the things from the car. ”

Berg gestured to one of the team members.

As soon as this batch of things arrived, the "Wolf Tooth Cross Team" was looking for a suitable channel to get rid of it, and if it couldn't be sold for a while, it was ready to be shipped to the "security warehouse" specializing in mercenary business for a period of time, and at the same time contacted Li Bai to change hands as soon as possible.

A "safe storehouse" like this never cares what is stored and can be guaranteed not to be embezzled or stolen, so that the mercenaries don't have to carry all their belongings with them, and they don't have to go through the trouble of building a secret warehouse, as long as they spend some money, they can get a safe and secure place to keep it.

Of course, you get what you pay for, and the rent of the "safe vault" is not cheap.

The members of the "Wolf's Tooth Cross" were partly inside the tavern, and partly outside guarding the vehicles and their contents.

Even mercenaries who kill people without blinking an eye are afraid that those daring thieves will steal their equipment, and the little money they have worked so hard to save is afraid that they will all cheapen others.

Not only professional habitual thieves, but even ordinary natives sometimes die of boldness.

There is only a thousand days to be a thief, but how can there be a reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days.

A few moments later, a dozen mercenaries with guns on their backs, working in pairs, entered the tavern with several large tin boxes, and the rough stones of the gems were all in the tin boxes.

Boom!

The last box slammed into the ground with a heavy muffled sound.

It was a thin young mercenary who missed, and the other mercenary who was partnered with him was a black man with a tiger's back and a meaty face, who was scolding his partner who had made a mistake.

"Waste dim sum, haven't you had enough to eat? If you break the contents of it, you just wait to sell your ass to pay it back! This is Africa, and some people like you like you ...... with fine skin and tender meat."

Berg, the captain of the "Wolf Tooth Cross Team", glanced at the small "accident" not far away, smiled at Li Bai, and said, "I'm sorry, it's a newcomer, clumsy. ”

He yelled at the big man, "Billy, you idiot, don't say a few words, the whole tavern is your voice, if you don't want to go out and be killed, shut up now!"

The voice of the black hunk mercenary who was crackling and spraying the rookie's face with a dog's bloody head stopped abruptly.

In the "Wolf's Tooth Cross Team", Captain Berg's right to speak is absolutely unquestionable, and if you don't want to be kicked out of the team, it's best to keep your mouth shut honestly now.

Everyone in the tavern immediately fell silent.

Perhaps, as Berg puts it, there are already people who are disgusted by this chatter, and perhaps they will form a grudge against it.

Among the people who wander on the edge of life and death all day long, the most indispensable is the crazy person, who does not take his own life and other people's lives as the same thing, and will easily burst out and kill people.

"That newcomer, well, a little familiar!"

Li Bai looked at the newcomer who was submissive in front of Billy, a black muscular man.

Black hair, black eyes, yellow skin, obviously yellow.

In the circle of mercenaries, there are generally not many yellow people, but there is often a characteristic, that is, people do not talk much.

At the same time, the mercenary rookie who noticed that someone was watching him followed his gaze and looked back.

His pupils involuntarily shrank slightly.

Apparently also recognized Li Bai.
