"I'm fine. Don't worry. I'll be able to go back in a few days. What about you? How are you now? Is there any discomfort? Did the child kick you in the stomach? Is he obedient? "Jiang Cheng's mouth was like a machine gun, and Mino was a little overwhelmed.
Although he spoke very quickly, Mino's ears were full of concern. She laughed and scolded, "How can there be a reaction so quickly? It's only two months now. You'd better do your job well and pay attention to your safety!"
The news reported the situation in the Middle East every day. Mino paid attention to the situation there every day. When she saw the situation in the Middle East and North Africa in chaos and smoke everywhere, Mino was very worried.
Jiang Cheng was walking alone in that kind of place, and it was very likely that he would lose his life. How could Mino not worry? But she knew that with Jiang Cheng's skills and abilities, he would definitely be able to protect himself.
"I know. Don't worry, I have a wife and a child. Before I grow old with you and raise the child, I definitely won't die …"
When he said that, Mino suddenly couldn't hear the rest of the words. She looked at the phone and found that the phone was still connected, but she couldn't hear Jiang Cheng's voice over there.
After Jiang Cheng finished a sentence, he didn't hear Mino's voice for a long time. He couldn't help but take the phone in front of his eyes and found that there was no signal in this area.
But thinking about it, although Libya used to be a country with very advanced communications, ever since their dictatorial president stepped down, the situation in the country was a mess. Some places had signal, while others had no signal. Jiang Cheng happened to drive to an area without signal.
The car continued to drive forward for a few kilometers, and there was still no signal on the phone. Jiang Cheng shook his head helplessly and said in his heart, "It seems that I have to get things done quickly and go home early!"
When he said this, Jiang Cheng didn't have much confidence. The current situation was very complicated. If Wang Chaofan dared to hire an assassin to kill him, then he must have some background and ability. As for who Wang Chaofan's father was, Jiang Cheng still didn't know. He had to find someone to help him find out.
Xu Hu has a lot of connections in Beijing, and he knows a lot of things. I'll give him a call and see if I can get some information or something from him.
Time flew, and Jiang Cheng drove the Land Rover that he had stolen, no, picked up, and crossed the border into Egypt.
Although the situation in the Middle East was very turbulent, Egypt was still considered peaceful. Their politics were very chaotic.
However, the basic structure of the country was not in chaos. Jiang Cheng crossed the border and had his passport checked before he was allowed to enter.
The situation was chaotic, but the more chaotic a place was, the more likely it was for people who didn't like peace to join in the fun. Jiang Cheng had seen at least a dozen organizations of various sizes along the way, and every time he was blackmailed, he was extorted a lot of money. By the time he drove into Cairo, he had used up all five thousand dollars on him.
After entering Cairo, Jiang Cheng immediately found a hotel to stay in. The hotel he found was for ordinary people on the streets of Cairo. When the owner of the hotel saw that Jiang Cheng was a Chinese, he couldn't help but be slightly surprised.
In his impression, Chinese people were like the local tycoons in Dubai. They always spent money like water. When they came and went, they would definitely use expensive cars and stay in high-end hotels. Why would they come to a small hotel like this?
Moreover, Jiang Cheng drove a luxury Land Rover. Although this car was very common, it was still a car worth more than a hundred thousand dollars. In Egypt, where China made Chery cars were everywhere, it was a symbol of a local tycoon.
The owner asked Jiang Cheng politely, "Sir, how long do you plan to stay?"
Jiang Cheng took out the one thousand dollars that he had just withdrawn from the ATM from his pocket. He took out half of it and handed it to the owner. "I'm not sure how long I'll stay. Boss, you should be able to stay here without a passport, right?"
The owner immediately understood that this person must have lost his passport, so he couldn't stay in a high-end hotel. Those interstellar hotels all needed a passport to stay. For a non-star hotel like theirs, no matter which country you were from, whether you had a passport or not, as long as you had money, I would let you stay!
Just like that, Jiang Cheng stayed in this hotel for thirty dollars a day. Although the conditions were very ordinary, it still had the basic facilities. According to domestic standards, this kind of hotel was similar to a hostel. Thirty dollars was a little expensive, but Jiang Cheng felt that it was very cheap because he didn't need a passport.
One must know that Wang Chaofan was now the person who had replaced him. If this kid said something bad about him in the government, it would be very disadvantageous to him. Therefore, Jiang Cheng felt that it was better to be careful.
After staying in the hotel, Jiang Cheng immediately picked up the phone and contacted Xu Hu who was far away in Beijing.
Jiang Cheng asked Xu Hu, "Hu Zi, help me investigate a person!"
Xu Hu waved his hand and laughed. "Tell me, who is it? As long as he was born in China, I can even find out how many times he peed on the bed when he was a child!"
"This person is called Wang Chaofan. Some time ago, he was kidnapped by a terrorist organization. Their people extorted fifty million dollars from us. Help me investigate, I always feel that there is something fishy about it!"
"F * ck, boss, it turns out that the person who was sent to be the unlucky one is you. F * ck, if I knew that you were going to carry out this task, I would have stopped you even if I was beaten to death. This is a thankless job. That Wang is not a good person, and his father is not a good person. If it weren't for his father, I would have f * cking beaten him!"
Jiang Cheng frowned and immediately realized that he had been deceived. He asked, "What's going on?"
"Ai, boss, you're still too young. Listen to me, blah, blah, blah!" Xu Hu began to tell a story on the other side of the phone.
It turned out that Wang Chaofan was not a good person when he was in Beijing. When he was in junior high school, he made a classmate pregnant and then dumped the girl. As a result, the girl was also stupid. She couldn't stand the pain of being broken up. In addition, she was pregnant. She felt that she had no face to see others, so she jumped off a building and killed herself.
However, that matter caused an uproar in the school. At that time, Wang Chaofan's father was only an injured person in Beijing. However, he was a wealthy businessman in Beijing, so he had some influence.
Later, Wang Chaofan's father, Wang Xie, spent a lot of money to suppress this matter. He also comforted the parents of the female student. In the end, this matter was left unsettled.
However, Wang Chaofan could not continue to go to school. If he continued to go to school, the whole school would think of the dead female student when they saw him. Therefore, Wang Xie made up his mind and sent his precious son to the United States to study.
After living in the United States for seven or eight years, Wang Chaofan also grew up. He bought a diploma from a diploma school in the United States and then returned to China to develop.
As for Wang Xie, because he stood on the right side, his road to wealth had been very smooth. In a short period of eight years, he had jumped from a ten million yuan to a millionaire with a net worth of tens of billions.
His father had made a lot of money, so as a son, he was naturally arrogant. This kid, Wang Chaofan, was a wild kid in China. After going to the United States to study, because he did not have the discipline of his parents, he became even more lawless. In high school, he smoked marijuana, took drugs, and played with guns. By the time he graduated from university, this guy was already a drug addict. He was just short of raising an army to rebel.
However, all of this was nothing in the eyes of his father, Wang Xie. He thought that after going to the United States for eight years, his son had become a Teletubbies and was extremely obedient.
Therefore, he found a position for Wang Chaofan as a department manager in PetroChina. Their family did not have any officials in their family. Wang Xie hoped that his son could join the organization, but this kid was trained by himself and knew how to do business. Therefore, he arranged for him to enter PetroChina and walk the path of an official.
This time, it just so happened that the branch in the Middle East needed to expand. The group reached agreements with several Arab countries, and suddenly the business began to develop. The oil field that Jiang Cheng was protecting was one of them.
Because this project was really too big, and it also had a very high political significance, anyone with a bit of insight knew that if he went to the Middle East, he would be immediately promoted after returning to China.
Furthermore, everyone knew that working abroad was extremely lucrative. Wang Xie, who was experienced in business and had excellent foresight, naturally understood this point very well.
He tried his best to squeeze his son into this team, and then waited for his son to obediently stay in the Middle East for a period of time. When the situation here stabilized, he would be transferred back to China, and then he would ask someone to promote him. From then on, he would enter the official career and walk to the peak of his life.
However, there was a saying in China that rotten wood could not be carved. Wang Chaofan was a rotten wood. No matter how you carved him, you could not change his nature. After coming to the Middle East for a few days, he went crazy everywhere. In the end, he went too far and was captured by the terrorist organization.
This made his father Wang Xie anxious. He immediately asked for help and asked for help. At the beginning, the people in the company were very anxious, but they did not have their own way, so they could only ask for help from the military. At first, the military did not care. This kind of thing was the business of the foreign affairs department. The military had no ability to deal with it, and did not want to deal with it.
However, everyone knew that the foreign affairs of the Celestial Empire were only those few words: protest, condemn, strongly protest, and seriously condemn!
Naturally, Wang Xie could not dream that the foreign affairs department could negotiate with the terrorists, so he immediately asked for help from his good friend, a general with real power in the army. In this way, the military agreed to send troops to rescue him.
But at this time, what Wang Chaofan's father, Wang Xie, didn't know was that his son had already tricked the people from the terrorist organization. He wanted the terrorist organization to ask for a ransom from his country. At first, it was only 5 million USD, but later it rose to 50 million USD.
Wang Chaofan said that this fifty million would be split 80% with the people from the terrorist organization. He would take 20%, and the people from the terrorist organization would take 80%!
The people from the terrorist organization were not fools. How could they not do this kind of deal, so they immediately agreed.
After that, Xu Hu said to Jiang Cheng, "Boss, how did you get involved in this? Let me tell you, that Wang Chaofan is a bastard. I just received information that he is colluding with a terrorist organization. The military investigators suspect that he is related to the deaths of the two special forces members. Think about it, two elites went to save him, but they died at gunpoint. If this kind of thing happened in normal times, would we believe it?
How could I not know the fighting strength of the people from the terrorist organization? Haven't you seen the news? The Russians led a bunch of idiotic troops, but they could still beat the members of the terrorist organizations. Our elite special operators died under their guns. It's shameful to say it out loud, so we have reason to suspect that he must have cooperated with the terrorist organizations. The rumor that the five thousand US dollars is 20% is probably reliable! "
At this point, Jiang Cheng completely understood. No wonder Wang Chaofan wanted to kill him in that situation when he and Wang Chaofan could have escaped together. It turned out that Wang Chaofan wanted to silence him. Wang Chaofan might have been afraid that Jiang Cheng would find out some inside story between them and then kill him to silence him. This way, he could cover up his dirty deeds and betray the interests of the country.
