He Liang had just finished speaking.

When he saw Wang Bai coming over.

"Big Brother He, thank you for earlier. I didn’t expect it to be so troublesome just leaving the airport; they demand money at every level." Wang Bai managed a bitter smile. He had just gotten off the plane and already felt that this place seemed quite unfriendly.

He Liang chuckled lightly, "This place is not as safe as back home. From now on, never go out alone. If you can solve problems with money, it’s best; your life comes first. Have you still not found your company’s people?"

Seeing that Wang Bai was still alone, He Liang asked.

"That’s right. I made some calls, but no one answered. I don’t know what’s going on." Wang Bai had looked around earlier but hadn’t seen anyone there to pick him up, which really frightened him.

He Liang was also somewhat uneasy about Wang Bai.

It wasn’t that he was overly compassionate; it was just the influence from his past. Having been a soldier for so many years, protecting the lives of the people was their purpose, even though he was now retired.

But deep in his mind was still the urge.

That he could never erase for a lifetime.

As long as foreigners are alone.

In this country, in densely populated areas, there basically is no security to speak of; order only exists in a few places, and the heavily trafficked airport is certainly not among these ’few places’.

Just as He Liang was about to ask if he knew the address to help him drop by, a slightly overweight Chinese man jogged over, came closer, looked at the photo in his hand, and then at Wang Bai.

He quickened his pace.

"Wang Bai?" the man stepped forward and asked with a smile.

Wang Bai quickly nodded, "Yes, that’s me. Are you here to pick me up?"

"Yes, hello, my name is Yao Xin. Sorry, I was delayed by some issues on the way. Just this ten-kilometer stretch, the local African police stopped me three times, and I had to pay three times before I could get here.

Really, it feels like going through customs just to leave the house." Yao Xin said with a pained expression, his brow continuously beading with sweat due to the hasty run and the scorching sun overhead, soaking his shirt.

Terrible weather meets terrible circumstances.

He just had to endure it.

Without money, it’s hard to even take a step.

This place is precisely here.

"Ugh, I’m kind of regretting coming here," Wang Bai said gloomily. He had heard about the instability here, but he hadn’t expected it to be this bad. However, he had signed a three-year contract with the company and had received an ’advance salary’ of 100,000 RMB.

This money had all gone to building a house for his family.

Thinking of this.

Wang Bai felt his prospects were bleak.

"Haha, it’s okay, as long as you don’t wander aimlessly, this place is manageable. Everyone comes out here to make money, and it’s not easy for anyone. This is..." Having expressed his sentiments, Yao Xin looked toward the several dozen people beside Wang Bai.

At first glance, they seemed to be here to guard a mining field. freewebnøvel.com

That was Yao Xin’s first impression.

He felt confident in this assessment; so many people wouldn’t likely be sent by a company just to work in an office.

"This is a big brother I just met, named He Liang. They’re here to work as security guards," Wang Bai introduced.

"Hello, I wonder which mining enterprise’s security you are with?" Yao Xin inquired.

Wang Bai was about to mention it was personal, since He Liang had just said so, but He Liang spoke before him, "We aren’t with a mining company; we are from a third-party security company."

"Third-party security company?" Yao Xin said in surprise.

Not because he was ignorant.

Mainly because mining enterprises rarely use this model; their security is almost always an inside job, seldom outsourced.

"Well, Wang Bai, since the person here to pick you up has arrived, we’ll be going now. If fate allows, let’s meet again." He Liang prepared to leave.

Wang Bai quickly said, "Sure, if there’s a chance, I’ll treat you to a meal. Can I have your phone number?"

After thinking about it, He Liang handed over a business card.

Leading his team to a distant coach, the coach bore the large, shield-shaped logo of ’Zhongyu Special Guard,’ and the entire vehicle was painted in light grey, marking it as different from regular coaches.

Watching He Liang walk away.

Wang Bai looked at the business card in his hand.

"Vice Manager of Zhongyu Special Guard’s Congo Gold branch, He Liang," Wang Bai read aloud.

"Which company is it?" Yao Xin leaned over to look at the words on the card, muttering to himself, "Zhongyu Special Guard?" He felt the name was somewhat familiar but couldn’t recall it.

"What? Brother Yao, do you know them?" Wang Bai looked up and asked.

Yao Xin shook his head.

"It seems familiar, but I just can’t remember. Let’s leave quickly, it’s not safe here. We’ll be fine once we get back to where we’re staying; it’s the main gathering place for Chinese around here." After speaking, he took a bag from Wang Bai and hurriedly returned to his pickup truck.

Just as he was starting the pickup truck, preparing to leave.

Yao Xin suddenly slapped his thigh.

"I remember now!"

This startled Wang Bai. Remember what? Seeing the excited expression on Yao Xin’s face, Wang Bai, confused, hurriedly asked, "Big Brother Yao, what did you remember?"

"Zhongyu Special Guard, yes, that’s the company," Yao Xin recalled.

He had heard about this company during conversations with the company’s big shots before, but he hadn’t paid much attention to it since they didn’t have much to do with his company. Now that he thought about it, it really was that company.

This company was not very famous.

However, the Potassium Transport Vehicles and military Hummers they possessed were indeed famous. Their patrols at mining fields were all in pickup trucks, and being able to carry a gun was already considered good, but others had these ’big guns.’

They couldn’t figure out what kind of connections were necessary to legally operate such an arrangement.

Wang Bai, completely puzzled, looked at Yao Xin, who, noticing Wang Bai’s look akin to seeing someone insane, quickly explained, "Do you know how powerful this company is? They can legally possess all sorts of military vehicles and some unconventional weapons here, all big guns..."

After listening to Yao Xin’s narration.

Wang Bai was also astonished; one needed an incredibly powerful background to be so brazen.

...

Meanwhile.

He Liang got onto the vehicle with his team members.

The interior, just like that of a luxury domestic coach, amazed them, completely unlike the worn-out buses with hard benches they had imagined. In this country, there were hardly any vehicles like this.

Sitting comfortably on the chairs.

A team member was about to open the window but found that the glass was unexpectedly heavy and difficult to open.

Upon closer inspection.

The team member’s expression changed.

"Manager He, this vehicle?"

Seeing the expression on the team member’s face, He Liang smiled. The other team members noticed something was off too. The power of the vehicle seemed a bit too strong, the engine’s vibrations sounded unusual, and the glass seemed... to even have bullet marks in some places.

"Correct, the entire vehicle is bulletproof and blast-proof. I don’t know which company modified it, but it is absolutely formidable. Not only can the body and glass defend against various medium and long-range personal weapons,

the chassis can also withstand mines. The vehicle weights twenty-five point seven tons and features a fully sealed safety structure design, crash-resistant design..." He Liang listed the details of the vehicle like an inventory.

He had sensed the vast financial resources of his company.

Just this vehicle.

The total cost of modifications wouldn’t be less than ten million RMB, which was more than ten times the cost of a typical vehicle of this kind. Yet it seemed like the company treated it as if money was no object by arranging three of these vehicles for them all at once.

Simply like having too much money to spend.

After the introduction.

The team members were all shocked.

It seemed the company had more money than they had imagined.

They knew, after all, about the registered capital of the security company, which was only about ten million RMB. Yet here, overseas, one vehicle was worth more than the entire registered capital of the company.

Are you sure this is company property?

He Liang was very certain in his answer.

All of these were the assets of the company, and through He Liang’s descriptions, they came to know that the overseas assets of the Security Company were several times larger than the domestic ones. The domestic company offices and training grounds were just a very small part of it.
