1775 Lin Yi’s Plans
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation | Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Lin Yi’s order made the two of them a little flustered.
This meant that from now on, he might not be able to help with this mission. They had to rely on themselves!
“Got it!”
At that moment, Mahra cut open the other package, too, with a small knife, and saw that the contents were all the same.
Weighing it in his hand, Mahra said to himself,
“What are these? Ores?”
99% of the global population did not know what Bass Ores were.
Very few people knew what it was for.
Not to mention ordinary workers like Mahra, even Chen Qingfeng regarded this thing as a regular piece of ore.
However, he did not understand why President Lin did not tell him in advance that this thing was hidden in the goods.
Moreover, he also vowed to come over to watch the inspection, which felt a bit illogical.
“These are two pieces of ore I brought back from outside, with plans to add them to my collection.”
Lin Yi said to Mahra, with a cheerful smile.
By now, he had figured out the entire backstory of the situation.
The Canal Authority’s people definitely didn’t know about these ores; otherwise, they wouldn’t have had such a prolonged standoff with him.
Furthermore, the wood on the ship has always been in a sealed state, making it highly unlikely to have been tampered with.
Given the scale of this operation and with Qi Xianzhao here as well, attempting such a thing would be nearly impossible.
It was now clear that the problem must have originated at the source.
The tampering likely happened before the wood was even loaded onto the ship!
“I know that you Huaxia merchants like to collect things, and these two ores look quite good.”
Mahra said,
“This thing is not considered an absolute contraband item, but I have to hand it over. 1 hope you can come with us so that we can deal with this matter and pay the relevant fine.”
“Okay, no problem.”
“Brothers, how are the other goods? Are there any problems?”
Mahra turned around and said loudly.
“We’ve already checked everything. The rest of the goods are fine.”
“Okay.”
Mahra nodded and looked back at Lin Yi.
“Mr. Lin, the goods have been inspected. Please come with us. After dealing with these problems, the cargo ship can leave the port.”
“I’d like to speak to my staff, if that’s all right. 1 need to give them some instructions.”
“Of course not. Feel free.”
Mahra’s attitude was very friendly, thanks to the watch Lin Yi had given him.
Lin Yi called Luo Qi and Zhou Liang to the side and whispered.
“I have a feeling that those people outside the borders must have heard the news in advance and rushed here. They only have one goal, which is the ores in our hands.”
“But I’m very puzzled. Who put this thing on the cargo ship?” Zhou Liang asked.
“They must be trying to frame us to make us the target of public criticism,” Lin Yi said cautiously.
“But now is not the time to think about these things.”
Lin Yi took a deep breath and continued.
“I’m making the final arrangements now. Listen up, both of you.”
The two of them nodded solemnly.
“When we leave later, call Boss Liu immediately and ask him to assign this mission.”
“Through the phone’s tracking function, you can lock onto my location.”
“If the conditions allow, I will convey the situation here to you, but there’s no guarantee that my phone will not be confiscated. So, after we leave, Luo Qi will be in charge of informing the headquarters, and Zhou Liang will be in charge of tracking my movements.”
“Understood!”
“I still don’t know how much information those other people have, but I should be able to analyze it. They will be able to lock onto the location of the ore soon and launch an attack.”
“If my prediction comes true, don’t hold back. You can attack the Canal Administration and snatch the ore back while ensuring your own safety.”
“Understood!”
“The analysis just now is the worst-case scenario. Based on the current situation, the situation is still under control. I speculate that the people from the Canal Administration don’t know what this thing is either. As long as this ore isn’t spotted by the military, the probability of it being discovered is very small. If that’s the case, don’t act rashly. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, don’t get into a conflict with them. Otherwise, our situation will be very unfavorable.”
