The identity of the jewelry procurent representative is just a disguise, intended to better confuse the enemy and serve as a cover. Phone calls, emails, procurent, everything is real, not afraid of verification, but Luo Zheng fears being monitored and that once the procurent is completed, it would be too late to escape, so he unhesitatingly rejected Hariri's proposal.
Hariri had already believed Luo Zheng's identity as a jewelry buyer, not worried about others, but concerned that Luo Zheng might not return or be hijacked by other surrounding tribes, asking himself whom would he sell his diamonds to? Upon hearing that Luo Zheng wanted to leave, Hariri's face darkened and he said unhappily, "There's no need to go back and forth so troubleso, I will arrange people to escort you to your Embassy in the capital by then, that place should be safe enough for you, right?"
"It's not about safety, it's the company waiting urgently for this batch of goods, I have to deliver them first, I'll be back at most in two days, what do you think? After all, your goods here have good quality and reasonable prices, I see no need to go through the hassle of procuring elsewhere." Luo Zheng's face also darkened, insistently said.
"What if I insist on you staying?" Hariri said discontentedly.
"Then stay, but I will temporarily not pay for this batch of goods. We'll talk about it once all the goods arrive, delaying ti could an the company won't continue purchasing your goods, and killing is useless, my life isn't as valuable as this batch of goods." Luo Zheng said calmly, seeing that Hariri still wanted to say sothing, he quickly continued, "I won't hide from you, there's more than one procurent team, if the goods cannot be arranged to be sent back before dark today, the company's other procurent team will act and will abandon here."
"Do you have other procurent teams?" Hariri said unhappily.
"Of course, your country is so chaotic, who knows if you'll be shot dead randomly? The company needs goods, but uncertainty prevails; if one procurent team is lost, another one imdiately starts, human life isn't valued, I'm just a procurent person, making things difficult for is aningless, how you choose is up to you." Luo Zheng said seriously, not giving the other party a chance.
Upon hearing this, Hariri pondered; controlling Luo Zheng or killing him ant he couldn't sell this batch of goods, whereas if released, at least this batch could be sold, and prices weren't bad, the future depended on luck.
But people have the psychological inclination towards luck, believing their luck won't be bad, especially for those in power like Hariri, who prefer having everything in control, believing nothing is a problem. Hariri's face softened a bit, unhappily staring at Luo Zheng and said, "The two of them can go, you stay."
"I don't mind, just one thing I must remind you of: they are just my assistants, the goods must be personally delivered by ; otherwise, no one will accept and take them." Luo Zheng heard this, smiled indifferently, confident in his mind, since Hariri had already relented, he just needed to insist.
Hariri was furious seeing Luo Zheng persist, but before wealth, he had no choice but to control his emotions, after thinking, realizing letting Luo Zheng go wouldn't incur losses. Just by putting out rumors, no nearby tribe dared sell goods to Luo Zheng. At worst the currently visible batch could be sold, ten million US dollars wasn't a small figure, enough to buy lots of weapons and ammunition, thinking this Hariri was moved, his face darkened, said, "Then it's settled, you both return in two days."
"No problem, hope your prices can be more reasonable, so that I can account to the company better." Luo Zheng smiled indifferently.
"Don't babble, just deal." Hariri impatiently waved his hand and said.
The person who previously sought Luo Zheng for his phone approached and handed Luo Zheng a small piece of paper. Luo Zheng took a look, finding an account written on it, he nodded in understanding, took out his phone, dialed and reported the account to the jewelry company, listened for a while, hanging up, then turned to Hariri and said, "According to procedure, this money will be paid into the account within three minutes but will be held in third-party custody by the bank, once the company confirms I have dispatched the goods delivery will be confird."
Third-party custody has its advantages; the money being actually credited, can't run away, just requires final confirmation by the payer, and the bank will transfer it to the seller's account. If the payer doesn't confirm, this money will be frozen by the bank, resolved via final coordination, so sellers don't worry about not receiving paynt, thus avoiding taking money without delivering goods.
Understanding this rule, Hariri waved indifferently, three minutes later, the satellite phone rang; the person holding it listened for a while, nodded to Hariri, who was suddenly elated, excitedly saying, "Pleasure cooperating, stay for lunch before you go, I'd like to entertain you well."
"No need, you wish to get the money soon, and we wish to send the goods soon as well; such matters should be dealt with sooner than later, arrange escorting then, finally deal at the Embassy entrance, alright?" Luo Zheng gracefully declined.
Pursuant to rules, the seller cannot receive goods until full paynt is obtained. Hariri understood the rules, smiled and said, "Okay, since you're in such a hurry, then let's settle it." Then shouted outside, the person who led Luo Zheng and others in ca inside.
Hariri instructed a few things to the person, they went to the inner room and took out a small combination lockbox, placed the small bag inside in front of Luo Zheng, then pushed the combination lockbox to Luo Zheng. Having learned so relevant knowledge beforehand, Luo Zheng knew the rules, discreetly setting the combination lock of the box, then pushed it back to the counterpart.
With this, only Luo Zheng knows the combination lock of the box, the person took the box along, preventing swapping during the journey. The person picked up the combination lockbox and glanced at Hariri, Hariri nodded, the person turned to Luo Zheng and said, "Let's go, I'll accompany you on this run."
Luo Zheng stood up, turned to Hariri and said, "Transaction pleasant, see you in two days." After Hariri nodded, he turned and left, closely followed by Ghost Hand and Madela, everyone went outside. The escort person summoned a team of ard personnel, everyone left the valley, reaching a dirt road, Ghost Hand driving, Luo Zheng and the escort seated in the back, Madela sat in the front passenger seat, other accompanying ard personnel sohow found two pickup trucks, following behind.
Everyone drove towards the capital, nobody spoke along the way, deep into the night they arrived near the street by Huaxia Country's Embassy in the capital and parked. Luo Zheng called the company, a few minutes later the person responsible for delivery received a call, left the combination lockbox, exited the vehicle, and left with the rest of the accompanying ard personnel parked behind.
Transaction completed smoothly, Luo Zheng knew soone would monitor around, drove into the Embassy, parked in the lot, turned to security guards coming to inspect, and said to Ghost Hand, "Brother, we must act."
"I've been waiting impatiently, grab weapons and move overnight or?" Ghost Hand asked excitedly.
