Jason felt quite regretful upon seeing this.
Stepping onto the private plane, Shadi waved goodbye to the other Biker Gang members. Shortly after, the pilot started the engine. The propellers on the wings began to spin at high speed, and the plane sprinted along the runway, climbing swiftly into the sky before retracting its landing gear and stabilizing at high altitude.
This was not Allen Zhang’s first time on a plane, but he had to admit that the experience of flying on an expensive, multi-seat private plane was indeed considerably better than that of gliding.
Looking down at the towns below becoming tiny, he quickly passed over the outskirts and downtown of Los Angeles.
The plane’s radar navigation system beeped: "Distance to the destination is 1 hour and 58 minutes in total. Your route and open airspace for low-altitude flight have been planned."
"We’ve got almost two hours, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery," Shadi said leisurely from the front row seat. She then took out two fruit gummies and handed them to the General Sect Leader, "Which flavor do you like?"
"Blueberry isn’t bad," Allen Zhang glanced and said.
"Ok, I like strawberry flavor," Shadi smiled.
Do you always enjoy small talk this much?
Allen Zhang decided to pull down the goggles, closed his eyes to rest, and asked Jason to wake him when they arrived.
Seeing his disinterest in chatting, Shadi knew to stop talking, connected to the plane’s Wi-Fi, and bowed her head to play on her phone.
Allen Zhang glanced over, damn, Genshin Impact.
Closing his eyes and reopening them, he quickly traversed several hundred kilometers. Jason woke Allen Zhang, "Boss, wake up, we’re almost there."
Allen Zhang stretched and looked out the window. They were about to arrive in Austin, the capital of Texas, but it seemed they were now above a suburban town? There was still some distance from downtown Austin.
The pilot contacted the town’s airport in advance and received clearance to land, so he began to slow down, descend, and glide to the ground.
With a sudden change in gravity inside the cabin, like riding an elevator, after a brief period of intracranial pressure, they landed smoothly on the tarmac.
"Aren’t we going to the city’s airport? Why come here?" Allen Zhang asked questioningly after they had landed.
"We don’t need to enter the city. For that batch of human figure art casts, my people will drive them to the mall in the city after we disembark. What you need to do is follow me and deliver the sports goods to the local Black people’s gym," Shadi explained.
Sports goods, Black people’s gym.
Allen Zhang didn’t say much, opened the cabin door, and stepped off the plane with Jason.
As soon as they landed, they were hit by a wave of heat, and the air was somewhat humid. The climate here wasn’t much different from Los Angeles, it’s on the West Coast.
He inquired Shadi about the delivery location and how to get there.
Shadi replied, "We can rent a car. There’s a rental agency nearby. That’s what we’ve done the previous times."
"That’s not necessary, I happen to know some locals, and they can arrange transportation for us," Allen Zhang said.
It was time to show the employer his capabilities, to let her know that this 80,000 US Dollar General Sect Leader didn’t earn his money for nothing.
He took out his phone and called some of Jason’s friends, and soon someone picked up, "Hey! Hello, this is Jimmy."
"Hello, I’m a friend referred by Jason, you can call me Juan Jin."
"Buddy, I’ve heard about you! Jason has already told me, told me to treat you well, help you out with any trouble. So, have you guys run into any trouble now?" Jimmy asked enthusiastically.
"No trouble, just that I have a batch of sports goods to trade with some Black people, but I’m not sure if they are reliable. We now need a few cars, can you handle that?" Allen Zhang said.
"We can, no problem! Where are you guys right now? I’ll drive over to pick you up," Jimmy said readily.
Allen Zhang looked at the coordinates of the town’s airport and informed him.
"Ok! We’ll be right over!"
After hanging up the phone, Shadi seemed surprised, "You also know a gang in Austin?"
"It’s some business partners my friend got to know, seems they also have a bit of influence locally," Allen Zhang replied, "But I don’t know how reliable they are."
Seeing him arrange everything so neatly, Shadi also felt relieved.
