"Are you mocking me?" Ti Feng said indifferently.
"Of course not." Xu Yun pretended to be envious and said, "Look at you. You're wearing luxury goods. How can I mock you? You're doing much better than me."
Ti Feng was expressionless, "Why are you here? You don't belong to this place … "
"Then where do I belong?" Xu Yun stopped pretending to be relaxed, "Aren't you the same as me? You don't belong to this place either."
"That was before." Ti Feng was still calm, "For me, I only live in the present. I've already forgotten the past."
"Then why can't I forget the past? I only live in the present. That explains why I'm here, right?" Xu Yun used the same words to refute.
Ti Feng was silent for a few seconds, "I just want to know what made you like this."
Xu Yun looked at herself up and down. "I'm still me. I'm no different from the person you knew before. I don't wear luxury brands. I should be the one asking you that question. What happened to make you like this?"
"Do we have to talk like this?" Ti Feng said, "The Yan Long I know isn't like this."
Xu Yun still didn't want to talk, "The Ti Feng I know isn't like this either."
Ti Feng lowered his head and was silent for a while, "How did you get involved in our deal with the Japanese? Who's behind you … As far as I know, your unit won't get involved in this kind of thing."
Xu Yun said, "I remember that the last time we participated in a United Nations peacekeeping operation was many years ago. It's been so long. You've changed units, and so have I."
"Haha …" Ti Feng's laughter clearly expressed his distrust towards Xu Yun's words.
Xu Yun said seriously, "I'm telling the truth. I've been removed from the list."
Ti Feng was startled as he looked at Xu Yun's expression. It seemed that he wanted to see something from Xu Yun's expression.
"Yin Long died during that peacekeeping mission," Xu Yun said faintly. "You know about this …"
Ti Feng's expression also changed, "Of course I won't forget, but I still can't believe that the person who betrayed your team … is actually …"
"I personally dealt with that person." Xu Yun didn't wait for Ti Feng to finish.
Ti Feng froze on the spot. "You … your actions … are unforgivable! After all, your actions don't just represent yourself! "
"That's why my name was removed." Xu Yun: "Now you believe that I was fired, right?"
Ti Feng was completely speechless. He had no choice but to believe it. Regarding Hua Xia's strict discipline, all the soldiers in the world knew. Therefore, if Xu Yun really did that kind of thing, he would definitely not be forgiven.
Ti Feng stared at Xu Yun for a while.
They had participated in many international operations together. Thus, he believed that he had a certain understanding of Yan Long.
Ti Feng had no reason to doubt Xu Yun. Considering his character, it was normal for him to do something like that.
"Then, you are now … working for someone else in Africa?" Ti Feng asked.
Xu Yun nodded his head and said, "What else? People like us, if we leave the army … what else can we do? "
Ti Feng was silent.
"Indeed, there are many things we can do. We can do many things we want to do. However, if we want to make money, I fear there is only one way," Xu Yun said. "We still have to pick up a gun and do dangerous things."
When Xu Yun said these words, Ti Feng did not say a word and did not mention a word.
"Unfortunately, if we do those things, the nature of it will be completely different …" Xu Yun smiled bitterly. "Am I right, Ti Feng?"
"We do have no other choice," Ti Feng said.
"Why did you become an arms dealer?" Xu Yun frowned.
"Because of money," Ti Feng said casually.
Xu Yun was puzzled. "Considering the welfare conditions in your country, I don't think someone with a profession like yours is lacking in money, right?"
Ti Feng casually said another number. "10 million US dollars."
Xu Yun was stunned.
"I am neither a financial genius from Wall Street nor a superstar from the NBA. My profession? I am just a soldier from the special forces. "
When Ti Feng said those words, there appeared to be great resentment in his heart.
"I can only receive a pitiful 60,000 US dollars per year …" Ti Feng continued. "I have given up everything for the country, risking my life. For the benefit of the country, I can even give up my life."
For an American, this amount of income was not too much.
Truth be told, the wage level of the US Empire was not as high and terrifying as what other countries in the world imagined.
Xu Yun listened quietly.
"Do you know how much money those people you killed last night received?" Ti Feng said. "200,000, 200,000 US dollars! People of their level can get 200,000 US dollars here! "
Xu Yun nodded. "Obviously, I can easily get rid of them. You can also easily get rid of them. What about you? How much do you get? "
"Me? Hehe … of course, I get much more than them! " Ti Feng said. "I can easily get rid of more than 10 of them. How much do you think I should get?"
Xu Yun gave a thumbs up. "If you can earn more than 2 million US dollars per year, then your income is quite high."
"Is it high?" Ti Feng asked. "Do you know how much a NBA star can get per year?"
Xu Yun knew about this. "Tens of millions."
"There are so many with an annual salary of more than 20 million US dollars … even if you are sitting on the bench and watching the water dispenser, you can get millions of US dollars!" Ti Feng said. "And I can only get 60,000 US dollars after risking my life for the country."
Xu Yun nodded. "Yes, this is indeed unfair. However … there are some things that must be done."
"I don't want to continue," Ti Feng said. "So, I quit. It's that simple."
"Quit because you don't want to do it anymore. This is indeed a good reason." Xu Yun smiled bitterly. "Your boss asked you to stay and talk to me. I'm afraid he wants me to come here and do something that can earn me 2 million US dollars per year, right?"
Ti Feng did not know how to bring up this issue.
Now, Xu Yun had actually brought it up.
"Then … do you have this idea?" Ti Feng followed Xu Yun's topic.
Xu Yun answered honestly. "Of course I have this idea. Who would say no to money? It's 2 million US dollars. Of course, I would be tempted. "
Ti Feng knew that the faster Xu Yun answered, the more hopeless the matter would be.
He did not even consider it seriously. That was why he said something so casual.
"Then, what are you doing now?" Ti Feng asked.
Xu Yun shrugged his shoulders. "It's about the same as you. It's just not as high and mighty as you. You earn in US dollars. I earn in RMB. "
"If you can earn in US dollars, why bother with RMB?" Ti Feng said.
