264 Anything That Can Be Solved With Money Is Not A Problem
Parker stood up and said, “Ray, it’s fine to just take him alone. We’d better get out as soon as possible.”
Ray waved his hand for Parker to sit down. He closed his eyes and thought for a moment.
“Fine,” Ray said as he opened his eyes again.
Soon, the hostages in the kindergarten began to walk out in an orderly manner. However, the police outside did not retreat.
Ray said, “Mr. Yao, did you lie to me?”
“Go out from the back,” said Yao Zizhou. “The front entrance is full of reporters.”
Yao Zizhou led Ray and the other mercenaries to escape from the rear gate.
…
When Ming Liuyi saw Yao Zhaoyang, she rushed forward and hugged him tightly.
Yao Zhaoyang snuggled into Ming Liuyi’s arms. He said, “Mommy, Daddy was taken away by the bad people.”
Ming Liuyi looked worriedly in the direction of the kindergarten. However, the only thing she could do now was to believe in Yao Zizhou.
The police had also begun dispersing the crowd, announcing to the public that this was just a stunt.
…
Ray and the others quickly brought Yao Zizhou with them and went hiding in a suburban area. After dark, the group continued to move forward and found an abandoned village to rest.
“Can you tell me who hired you?” asked Yao Zizhou.
Ray shook his head and said, “Mr. Yao, it’s our rule not to disclose client information.”
“I know who it is. Yao Ziyang.”
Yao Zizhou wanted to test Ray’s reaction. But Ray did not react. He did not even know who Yao Ziyang was. From the beginning to the end, Ray had only seen Niu Wu.
“Mr. Yao, cut the crap,” Ray said. “It’s time to talk about our business.”
Yao Zizhou sneered. Mercenaries were mercenaries. As long as they were paid, there was nothing they could not do.
“Alright, how much do you want?” asked Yao Zizhou.
Ray shook his head. This was not a business deal, but a negotiation.
Ray would not ask for the money first, but let Yao Zizhou ask for it. If it was less, Ray would not hesitate to kill Yao Zizhou.
“How about twenty million?” asked Yao Zizhou.
“Mr. Yao, you should know that the person who hired us gave us thirty million,” the mercenary said.
Actually, he only gave them fifteen million. Parker and the others smirked when they heard Ray’s words.
When Yao Zizhou saw their smirks, he knew what was going on. However, on the outside, he had to feign ignorance. He knew that anything that could be solved with money was not a problem.
“I can give you 100,000,000 yuan. Let me go and help me kill someone instead,” said Yao Zizhou.
Ray’s eyes widened. He did not expect this man to be so generous. Parker and the others were even more excited.
Ray pondered for a moment. In that small town, Niu Wu was very powerful. However, when faced with so much money, Ray believed that it would be quite easy to deal with Niu Wu. Moreover, there was so much to gain.
Ray nodded. “Agreed.”
Both sides quickly reached a consensus. They would let Yao Zizhou leave at dawn. After getting the money, Ray and the others would return to assassinate Niu Wu.
After daybreak, Yao Zizhou withdrew the money according to the agreement. When Ray and the others received the money, they set off.
…
Meanwhile, Niu Wu was busy with what he had to do that day.
Yao Ziyang spent the time hugging Cai Rixi as they waited for news of Yao Zizhou’s death. However, no matter how many times he checked the television, there was no news of Yao Zizhou’s death yet.
Yao Ziyang called Niu Wu and said, “Brother Wu, are you sure there are no problems with that mercenary team?”
“I know them,” said Niu Wu. “There are no problems.”
“But until now, there’s no news of Yao Zizhou’s ‘accident’. There must be something wrong here,” said Yao Ziyang.
It was this sentence that raised the red flag for Niu Wu. After hanging up the phone, Niu Wu had a bad feeling.
He ordered everyone to be on high alert and set up hidden sentries. Once they spotted Ray’s mercenary team, they were to kill them immediately.
After Ray and the others took the money, they did not forget Yao Zizhou’s request. Everyone still had the equipment supplied by Niu Wu for the previous task, and returned to the border town.
Niu Wu’s lackeys quickly discovered them and reported their whereabouts.
Niu Wu picked up the phone and called Ray. He said, “Ray, are you done? Why didn’t I receive a notice?”
Ray did not say anything and hung up the phone. Niu Wu knew that something was wrong. He immediately gathered his subordinates and surrounded Ray and the other mercenaries.
After a night of fierce fighting, Ray and the others were all wiped out by Niu Wu and his men.
Niu Wu’s losses were equally severe, but he managed to reap tens of millions from the dead.
When he returned, Niu Wu told Yao Ziyang about what happened, and Yao Ziyang became furious. When he heard that Ray and his mercenaries were all killed, Yao Ziyang instantly laughed out loud.
