Chapter 1277: Chapter 719: Qing Chen, I’m Cold 2
This was the journey Luo Wanya prepared for Qing Chen, intending to let the boss relax before climbing Mount Everest.
However, Yangyang laughed and said, “Since we’re here, let’s follow the local customs and hang on the train too!”
“Alright,” Qing Chen responded with a smile.
During this trip, he seed to forget why he was here, insisting on accompanying Yangyang until they had fun.
When the two hung on the train, the breeze brushed their faces as they excitedly shouted like two maniacs.
The densely packed n on the train roof pointed at them, seemingly viewing them as two country bumpkins who had never seen the world.
Later, when the guys on the roof moved up and down, the two actually grabbed a spot at the train head.
They sat side by side at the train head, and the green train slowly headed north at a speed of 80 kiloters per hour.
“If only ti could stop at this mont,” Yangyang whispered.
Qing Chen did not respond.
Yangyang suddenly asked on the train, “Boss Zheng and Boss He are still on Whale Island. Besides , do you have other backup plans this ti?”
Qing Chen smiled in the wind and said, “Yes.”
…
…
Inside the Royal Express, every decoration exuded a luxurious essence.
The floor was covered with reddish-brown carpet, and elegant oil paintings adorned the walls.
Carriage 17, which originally belonged to Qing Chen and Yangyang, seed to have beco vacant.
As the train started moving, four people suddenly ca out of carriages 13 and 19, each approaching carriage 17 from both sides.
Four Asian n with indifferent expressions quietly held silenced firearms in their hands.
Pretending to be passing by normally, they suddenly fired into carriage 17 upon arrival, turning the door into a sieve!
It wasn’t until the gunfire ceased that soone opened the door to confirm if the target was dead.
However, it was empty inside, with no trace of Qing Chen and Yangyang.
The four exchanged puzzled looks. According to the passport information, they should have been in the compartnt!
One of them picked up the phone and dialed out, speaking in Korean: “Boss, there’s no one in the compartnt. We need new intelligence to track the target.”
Soone on the other end of the phone said, “Understood. Leave at the next stop and head to New Delhi as quickly as possible to wait.”
“Got it,” the assassin replied.
He hung up the phone, gave a signal to the other three, and quickly walked towards another direction.
However, just as they passed by carriage 16, the compartnt door opened. Inside, an irresistible force seed to pull them in, making them fall into the compartnt without any resistance!
Inside was like a black hole, absorbing all the assassins and erasing any trace of their existence.
The door of carriage 16 closed again, as quietly as if nothing had happened.

…
New Delhi Gandhi International Airport.
A Chinese man kept checking his watch, surrounded by six other Chinese people carrying climbing packs.
Their clothing was from expensive outdoor brands like ‘Archaeopteryx,’ ‘Mountain rat,’ and ‘Kailas,’ each looking dignified, either rich or noble.
Of course, climbing Mount Everest costs a lot; the poor can’t go up.
First is the equipnt. Just speaking of clothing, one must prepare 5,000-ter altitude jackets and specialized down jackets and mountain boots for the summit at 8,000 ters altitude, capable of enduring minus 40 degrees.
Each item is costly, and they add up to at least 80,000 yuan.
Moreover, Nepal now has requirents for Mount Everest climbers; at least one must et the ‘5678’ principle: having climbed 5,000-ter, 6,000-ter, and 7,000-ter altitude snow mountains and obtained certifications to reach 8,000 ters altitude.
Of course, one can bypass this standard by paying higher fees to have guides help grease the wheels, with Qing Chen and Yangyang each paying an extra 350,000 yuan to qualify for joining the group.
Otherwise, they could not climb Mount Everest.
To simply et this threshold, the cost of equipnt procurent, travel expenses, and guide fees is about 220,000 yuan.
Furthermore, to obtain Nepal’s official climbing permit, the price in spring is 11,000 US Dollars, fall is 5,500 US Dollars, and other seasons are 2,750 US Dollars.
Lastly, joining a reliable expedition company typically costs 350,000 yuan per person, including a Sherpa guide’s fee.
All these combined costs are definitely not affordable for ordinary people.
So, those who can appear here are people of prominent status within China’s various regions, at least willing to spend a million yuan to climb a mountain.
Of course, there are tours that only go up to the 5,400-ter Mount Everest Base Camp for a few days, which is relatively cheaper at about 150,000 yuan.
Qing Chen originally wanted to find an independent guide, so even if danger occurred, it wouldn’t be like the last ti the film crew went north to shoot and involved ordinary people.
But he later discovered so things and switched to another strategy.
Outside Gandhi International Airport.
“Xiao Zhang, I heard the two young people who haven’t arrived yet have never been above 5,000-ter altitude?” A middle-aged man asked the guide, “You guys really dare to take any money, not afraid they’ll have issues on Mount Everest?”
The young man nad Xiao Zhang looked embarrassed, “President Liu, they gave too much… an extra 350,000 yuan each, actually with a slightly more amateur team, such an amount isn’t necessary. But you know, I’m currently the most professional for Southern Slope climbing in China, and they probably want the most reliable person.”
