Chapter 1120 - Gold Mine
Chapter 1120: Gold Mine
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Li Qiang defeated the regime of Howton’s armed forces with lightning speed, and Golden Bull transported Howton’s body back to the base. This way, any unsettled people could give up. Their former leader had completely become history. If they wanted to live and progress, they must absolutely obey the existing new leadership.
Yang Ming had his reason why he wanted to build his own armed forces in Country X. Although General Kars knew the true identity of the diamond mine owner, the other armed forces did not. They would be inevitably greedy for the diamond mine and come looking for trouble. Yang Ming could not go looking for General Kars every time there was a problem to solve. In this way, he would owe General Kars too much. If General Kars had something to ask from himself, it would be difficult for Yang Ming to refuse.
Therefore, Yang Ming considered the establishment of his own armed forces. In this way, it could also effectively prevent the exclusion of other mine owners. As long as he had absolute strength, he could gain a foothold in this war-torn country.
The middle-ranking leaders of the former Howton’s armed forces were placed under house arrest, to prevent those who were loyal to Howton from causing a rebellion among the troops.
It didn’t take very long. After waiting for a month or two, when the soldiers of General Howton were disrupted and integrated into the group of Li Qiang and others, these middle-ranking leaders couldn’t cause problems anymore. No one would be listening to their orders.
Yang Ming did not let Li Qiang directly kill these middle-ranking leaders for a reason. The reason why these people could become middle-ranking leaders was that they undoubtedly had extraordinary abilities to be selected as leaders.
It would be a pity to kill them directly, so Yang Ming put them under house arrest and waited until the soldiers stopped listening to their orders. After a period of investigation, they could continue to be entrusted with important positions after they passed.
Yang Ming did not say too much about these techniques of employing and utilizing people, and the organization still relied on Li Qiang and the others to operate. Yang Ming could not stay here for a long time to guide them, so it depended on them to slowly explore.
Fortunately, there was a military advisor, Lu Xinyang. Some things could be discussed with him, so Li Qiang and others would not be too passive.
Yang Ming surfed the Internet via his satellite phone and sent a photo of General Howton’s body to General Kars’ mailbox. The mission was completed. Yang Ming had not asked Fang Tian what the reward was.
After sending the mail, Yang Ming called Fang Tian.
“Old Man Fang, the mission is completed!” Yang Ming’s mood was very comfortable. Although the mission was not going well at the beginning, it was concluded very smoothly.
“Oh? Not bad!” Fang Tian heard Yang Ming said that the mission was completed, and he smiled happily. “It seems that you finally found a solution. You didn’t need me to help.”
“I still completed it with the help of a friend.” Yang Ming said, embarrassed.
“In any case, this is what you did. Your friend is also your own power. In this way, I can rest assured,” Fang Tian said.
“Right, what is the reward this time?” Yang Ming asked.
“Probably two gold mines. General Kars has just become the president and has no resources in his hands. It is good enough to get two idle gold mines.” Fang Tian said, “These things he gave are not very useful. It can’t be exchanged for cash.”
“Two gold mines? Okay. Anyway, I intend to let my people develop here, so I will accept the gold mines.” Yang Ming thought about it and replied. Anyway, gold is also one of the raw materials for my jewelry company. So if there is a gold mine, it is not a bad thing to have more.
“En, well, you can go to Kars to receive it.” Fang Tian said, “I don’t think he will renege on the debt.”
“That’s true.” Yang Ming nodded. After the previous sneak attack, General Kars is more afraid of me. He can’t renege on debts.
Sure enough, not long after, General Kars replied with an e-mail and expressed warm congratulations on the success of Yang Ming’s mission, and said that once Yang Ming returned to the capital city, Shoujie, he would host a grand banquet for Yang Ming.
Yang Ming didn’t care about the banquet. Now, only Huang Lele’s family matters were left. Yang Ming decided to go to the location of the gold mine which belonged to Huang Lele’s family to investigate.
General Kevin was also a well-informed person. When he learned that Howton’s residence was taken down, he became more and more careful. The soldiers who went to the town to purchase goods were required to wear casual clothes and prohibited to drive military vehicles out. Because the secret agents sent by Kevin also saw the true strength brought by Yang Ming. Not mentioning anything else, even the dozen armored vehicles could flatten their base.
With a sigh, General Kevin also doubted General Kars’ strength. Is this group part of General Kars’ power? However, whether it was or not, General Kevin would not deal with the affairs of Country X; it would be better to make money modestly.
After two days of rest, Li Qiang integrated the original General Howton’s troops into his team for unified training. Most of these people struggled to get by because their family was too poor or because the long years of war destroyed their family businesses. So, they went to General Howton and joined his armed forces.
Therefore, for them, as long as they could survive and have food to eat, following whoever was the same. Of course, these were just their previous thoughts. From now on, Li Qiang would cultivate their sense of collectiveness and honor, making them loyal to the organization and Yang Ming.
Because there were so many of General Howton’s men, Li Qiang and Golden Bull had to divide these people into several squads and had their original men become the captains of these squads. However, in this way, the original men have become small leaders, and each of them was very happy.
In these two days, when Wang Xiaoyan was free, she would give instruction to Old Buffon one by one. Old Buffon took his learning seriously. When Li Qiang’s men saw that an old man was so serious, they became more hardworking at practice.
On the morning of the third day, Yang Ming planned to return to Shoujie City. Old Buffon only went back under Yang Ming’s eloquent persuasion. In this environment, it was indeed not suitable for Old Buffon to stay.
At first, Old Buffon naturally pestered and didn’t want to go, but in the end, under Yang Ming’s threat to sever the mentoring relationship, Old Buffon stepped on the ship that was heading home and left Country X.
This time, when Yang Ming went to Shoujie City, he took Wang Xiaoyan, Li Qiang, and half of the base’s forces. Wang Peng, Liu Chao, Golden Bull, and Lu Xinyang stayed at the base.
Because of the large number of people, the speed of action was naturally slower. Moreover, Yang Ming was afraid of attracting the ideas of other armed forces on the way, so he had to hurry at night.
Currently, Yang Ming did not want to have a large-scale conflict with the local armed forces, so everything was done in a low-key manner.
What was supposed to be a half-day journey took Yang Ming and the others two nights to reach the mine near Shoujie City, the capital of Country X. This mine was the property of Huang Lele’s family.
“This is the property of your concubine’s family in Singapore?” Wang Xiaoyan looked at the mine not far away, smiled, and asked Yang Ming.
As for Huang Lele’s matter, Yang Ming did not conceal it from Wang Xiaoyan. The two people came to Africa’s Country X. Yang Ming also had to deal with Huang Lele’s family matters. Even if he wanted to hide from Wang Xiaoyan, he couldn’t.
Moreover, the most important reason was that Wang Xiaoyan was not as jealous as Chen Mengyan… Just that it seemed that Wang Xiaoyan had changed a bit. She became more like a woman… and she started to throw little emotional tantrums.
“Accurately speaking, she is a lover just like you.” Yang Ming smiled and saw Wang Xiaoyan’s emotions, pinching her little hand, and replying.
“Hmph!” Wang Xiaoyan glared at Yang Ming and said nothing.
A group of people went to the gold mine. When they neared the opening of the gold mine, Yang Ming was stunned. There should be no people here. How were there people guarding the entrance of the mine?
“Who is it?! Stop!” The person who was at the entrance of the mine saw Yang Ming and the others coming over and immediately stopped them. “This is private territory. You are not allowed to enter it. Otherwise, I will kill those who try to enter!”
“Private territory?” Yang Ming listened to the guards and frowned. “What private territory? Who is your boss?”
“Who are you to care about who my boss is?” The guard’s tone was very arrogant. “If you don’t leave, I will call the others!”
“Call the others?” Yang Ming looked back at his big army, not far away and smiled. If you can call, just call.
“What happened? Who is making trouble here?” A good-looking young master came out of the mine. To say that he was a good-looking young master was an overstatement; he was actually just a pretty boy.
However, what surprised Yang Ming was that this pretty boy actually spoke Chinese!
“Are you people from the Huang Family?” Yang Ming asked with hesitation. According to Huang Rongjin, the people of the Huang Family had already withdrawn to Singapore. There should be no one here.
“Huang Family?” The pretty boy snorted. “This place belongs to the Li Family now, not the Huangs.”
“Li?” Yang Ming suddenly was surprised. “Isn’t this a property of the Huang Family? When did you come?”
“Hmph, whether or not it’s the Huang Family’s depends if my big brother can marry Huang Lele for her to be my sister-in-law, but Huang Lele, that b*tch, is dawdling. I see there is a big likelihood!” The pretty boy coldly snorted. “Don’t talk so much nonsense. What are you doing here? What the hell do you want? If you have nothing, just go away!”
Yang Ming listened to the words of this pretty boy and suddenly remembered! This Li Family was the Li Family of Singapore mentioned by Huang Rongjin. It seemed that this pretty boy was the younger brother of Li Tianjia.
They probably used the relationship with General Kars and first occupied the mine. If Huang Lele married into the Li Family, it would be fine. But if she didn’t marry into the Li Family, the mine would probably be owned by the Li Family.
“It turns out to be the Li Family from Singapore!” Yang Ming snorted and said, “Are you Li Tianjia’s younger brother?”
“How do you know?” The pretty boy was shocked. “Who are you?”
“I’m here to claim this mine on behalf of the Huang Family. Now you can f*ck off,” Yang Ming said faintly. He did not like the Li Family from Singapore. He especially hated Li Tianjia. Now that he saw Li Tianjia’s younger brother, who was arrogant and despotic, Yang Ming was even more displeased. Yang Ming just waved, indicating that he could leave.
“Which motherf*cker are you? On behalf of the Huang Family? Who are you f*cking representing?” Li Tianyu was immediately angered at the time. He pointed to Yang Ming, “If you don’t leave, you will be finished.”
“Huang Lele is my wife, so what I say goes.” Yang Ming did not want to talk nonsense with Li Tianyu. He directly grabbed his neck collar and exerted force, then Li Tianyu’s thin body flew up like a kite and fell down immediately.
Li Tianyu was thrown, and the guard at the entrance was anxious immediately. He blew the whistle on him and began to call people.
The people inside the mine heard the whistle at the entrance and immediately rushed out.
“No one can move. Kill whoever that moves!” It was time for Li Qiang to make a move. Since Yang Ming had already made a move, he had no reason to stay idle there.
Li Qiang and his men were holding new MP7A1 submachine guns [1] in their hands; they were rare in the armies of many countries.
The people who rushed out were stunned at once! How were they the opponents of those armed forces?! They operated the mine here, mainly relying on the relationship between the Li Family and General Kars for their safety.
The nearby armed forces also knew the relationship between the mine and General Kars, so they did not find any trouble. In this way, Li Tianyu thought that Country X was his Heaven, and he could do whatever he pleased!
He didn’t expect Yang Ming to come with armed forces. How could Li Tianyu and these men with iron bars be their opponents? Li Tianyu was more capable of bullsh*tting, but he was not stupid. He knew that there was a large disparity between his strength and the others. The result of fighting back with brute force would be death. Therefore, Li Tianyu did not dare to be rash. He was so scared that he quickly admitted defeat. “Brother, I will leave. I will take my people and leave. This place is yours. Don’t kill me! I am just following an order from the family. This has nothing to do with me personally!”
“Hurry up and scram!” Seeing Li Tianyu’s good-for-nothing look, Yang Ming was disgusted and waved impatiently.
Yang Ming also thought about killing Li Tianyu directly, but after all, it involved the matters in Singapore. Yang Ming could not simply make a move before he figured out Huang Lele’s intentions.
However, he did not expect that when he let Li Tianyu go, it would be like returning the tiger to the mountain, allowing this guy to go to find support.
Li Tianyu did not dare to stay for a long time. He quickly took his team and fled the mine.
“Brother Yang, we?” Li Qiang looked at Li Tianyu’s back and asked.
“Let them go.” Yang Ming said, “Let these people stay alive for a while.”
Li Qiang nodded. Although he didn’t understand why Yang Ming didn’t let them kill Li Tianyu and the others, he absolutely obeyed Yang Ming’s order. When Li Tianyu and the others fled, Li Qiang took his own staff into the mine.
Li Tianyu ran a long way in a stretch until he couldn’t see the mine behind him, then he was relieved. He wondered, How could the Huang Family have such powerful armed forces here? If the Huang Family had such powerful armed forces before, they would not need to ask for help from our Li Family!
Although he didn’t understand it, Li Tianyu was not willing. He began to think of a way.
I also have a small group of armed forces in Country X, but even if I gathered all of them. I am not his opponent. So, Li Tianyu thought about it, and this situation required the help of General Kars.
General Kars had acquiesced to the Li Family’s temporary occupation of the gold mine. If Li Tianyu went to General Kars for help, he believed that General Kars would not sit idly by.
Thinking of this, Li Tianyu dialed the phone number of General Kars’ government office.
“Hello, I want to find General Kars!” Li Tianjia said very respectfully after the call was connected.
“General Kars is in a meeting. Who are you?” asked General Kars’ secretary.
“I am Li Tianyu, the second son of the Li Family from Singapore.” Li Tianyu said quickly, “Can you please tell General Kars that I called to look for him?”
“Okay, we will make a record here.” General Kars’ secretary hung up the phone after she finished speaking.
Although anxious, Li Tianyu had no other way. He could only wait silently for General Kars to contact him. However, with the relationship between the Li Family and General Kars, General Kars should call him back.
Sure enough, after waiting anxiously for more than an hour, Li Tianyu received a call from General Kars. Before, General Kars was in a meeting. He was discussing excitedly with his men their general strategy after destroying General Howton, so his mood was exceptionally good now. Otherwise, he would not personally return a call to a junior of the Li Family.
“Is it Li Tianyu? This is Kars.” Kars dialed Li Tianyu’s phone and said concisely.
“General Kars, hello!” Li Tianyu quickly asked, “I am really flattered that you called me back in person!”
“Well, let’s talk. Why did you look for me?” General Kars didn’t have time to greet Li Tianyu and went straight to the point.
“Things are like this. General Kars, you have to stand up for me!” Li Tianyu’s voice suddenly cried.
“Just say what you have to say. What are you crying about?!” General Kars said with some impatience.
“Yes, yes!” Li Tianyu did not dare to act anymore. He quickly said, “This is the case. I was doing fine with my people at the gold mine, but some people with armed forces who claim to be from the Huang Family expelled us. General Kars, you have to help me drive them away and return the gold mine to me!”
“That gold mine is not yours. What’s there to return?” General Kars snorted. “You have not paid me for the rent of the mine. Now it is only rented to you temporarily!”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
