Chapter 2729: 2703: When Do We Take Action?
Gao Yang suddenly remembered he still has a treasure waiting to be unearthed.
He quickly stepped forward, excitedly opened a drawer, and then took out a small box from inside.
After opening the small box, it revealed a tiny chip inside.
Gao Yang picked up the chip from the box and turned to Yelena, saying, “Hey, darling, do you remember we still have a treasure waiting to be unearthed?”
Yelena paused for a moment and then exclaimed in surprise, “That watch, no, the chip hidden in that watch!”
Gao Yang nodded and laughed, “Yeah, this chip, remember? We still have to go treasure hunting.”
Yelena nodded vigorously, excitedly saying, “Yes, yes! I want to go, I want to go!”
Yelena looks very demure on the outside, but she really is not a good girl. Like her father, her love for adventure is in her bones; it’s unchangeable, at most hidden away.
Especially going on a treasure hunt with Gao Yang, how could this not be something Yelena would love?
Gao Yang suddenly seemed troubled and said, “But your classes are so intense right now, you’re about to graduate. Let’s wait until you graduate before we go.”
Yelena’s face showed a hint of disappointment, and then she sighed helplessly, softly saying, “Alright, not a big deal to wait a few more days.”
Gao Yang, feeling somewhat reluctant, put the chip back into the box, and then reluctantly placed the box back into the drawer. For him, this chip might be his only way to break free from this beautiful life, but he promised to bring Yelena along, couldn’t go back on his word.
Of course, Libya is very dangerous, but with Gao Yang’s current situation, the dangers of Libya are nothing. Back then, he, Cui Bo, and Glolov fought their way out, then Li Jinfang and Frey went back in, and then they fought their way out of Libya again. Let alone now.
One could say Libya is where Gao Yang and Satan started; it’s a blessed place, the dream began there.
Thinking of Libya, Gao Yang naturally thought of Fedor, who he only spent half a day with but influenced his whole life.
“I wonder where Fedor was buried. The situation was chaotic at the time, and I never went back to see. Well, this time I’ll just go back to rebury Fedor and Malik’s remains properly.”
Acting on impulse is Gao Yang’s habit. After saying a word to Yelena, he was going to pick up his satellite phone.
“First, take off the dress.”
“I’m just making a call.”
Amidst a mundane conversation, Gao Yang took his satellite phone. But then he indeed stopped again and said to Yelena, “Speaking of which, it’s also time to find Malik’s family. They should be found. I, along with Rabbit, must ensure Malik’s family lives a better life. Now that I think about it, I’m ashamed.”
Yelena softly said, “You are just now stabilizing your life. Having the heart is good enough; it’s not too late to act now.”
Gao Yang nodded. He called Cui Bo, and when Cui Bo answered the phone, he could hear gunshots from within.
“Rabbit, at the shooting range?”
“Yeah, at the range, hurry if you have something. Curtis, I’m about to lose to Crow.”
“We need to go to Libya.”
“For what?”
“A few things: treasure hunting, reburying the remains of Fedor and Malik, oh, and find Malik’s family. How about that?”
“Curtis! Right, that’s the plan. You wait, I’ll head back, and we’ll meet to discuss this thoroughly.”
“Alright, I’ll wait for you. Also, Tommy is getting married, aren’t you coming back?”
“Coming back, right away. I was planning to return today, but others are still not here. Not saying more, I’ll head back now. We need to get this thing done right. Oh, you mentioned treasure hunting? What treasure?”
“We’ll talk about it when you come back.”
Gao Yang hung up the phone and then remarked eagerly, “I really want to go to Libya right now. Tommy’s wedding is a great opportunity; everyone’s there. Once I mention this, we can go immediately. Let me think who’s a threat, who’s controlling Tripoli now, in present Libya, the armed organizations don’t mean much. Grand Ivan could tame them. But I do hope they challenge me. I’ve got people, I’ve got guns, bring out the tanks and artillery, anyone dares to rob me—great, I’ll deal with that son of a bitch…”
As he spoke, Gao Yang glanced at Yelena, then sighed and said softly, “Enough, I’m just thinking out loud. Best not to stir up trouble, retired life should be retired.”
Yelena sighed, helplessly saying, “You, just like my dad, always with guns and artillery. When you both get together, my mom and I will be quite busy. Turning our heads for a second and you’d be off God knows where. Honestly, I’d rather you play with women than do anything dangerous. I’m serious; at least finding women won’t kill you…”
Gao Yang frowned and said, “What are you saying? That’s too much.”
Yelena shrugged and smiled, “I misspoke. That was my previous thought. Now, listen, if you dare find another woman, don’t blame me for not being polite!”
Half-jokingly, half-seriously threatening Gao Yang, Yelena moved away from the topic and waved at Gao Yang, “Take off your suit.”
Gao Yang stood up, but then his satellite phone rang again.
Yelena was afraid of Gao Yang’s phone ringing; she immediately seemed tense. Gao Yang smiled at Yelena, then answered the phone, “Hey, Nate, what’s up?”
“I’m being discharged, just notifying you, we’re leaving tomorrow.”
Suddenly, Gao Yang felt envious of Nate. He cleared his throat and asked, “Where to?”
“South America, going to take on drug lords, quick money.”
“Oh, then what?”
“Saving money, once I’ve got enough, find a place to continue our unfinished business. This time my target is 100 million dollars. Once I’ve got it, I’ll come again.”
Gao Yang paused for a moment and quietly said, “Alright, best of luck.”
“Don’t think I’ll thank you, I’m just informing you, be careful of your leg next time we meet. Goodbye.”
Gao Yang took a breath, wanting to say goodbye, but he saw the drawer where he placed the watch, so he impulsively said, “Wait, got a job, you interested?”
“Not interested. I said I won’t take jobs from you.”
“Not hiring you, it’s a partnership. I’ve got a treasure to dig up, you be my muscle, once it’s done I’ll give you ten percent. I estimate this one trip will be enough, won’t need to save money, you’ll directly have a hundred million. Interested?”
Nate coldly laughed, “Keep blowing smoke.”
Gao Yang chuckled, “You know I never bluff. Just say, yes or no.”
Nate pondered for a moment, finally speaking seriously, “Thirty percent!”
“Impossible, inside there might be nothing, but there’s a huge chance of having over hundreds of billions in treasure. I’ll say just one thing; it’s Gaddafi’s treasure site.”
Nate took a breath and said, “Really? Alright, twenty percent, and I’ll owe you a favor!”
“Fifteen percent maximum, and you owe me a favor. Take it or leave it.”
“Deal! When do we start?”
