Thirty Entrepreneurship: Recycling of second-hand aircraft carriers at the beginning

Chapter 352 The Rats Are Coming
"Well, very good, please come in." The secretary smiled and nodded, speaking to the two in Lao.

The two followed him into the room. The secretary poured tea for them, then sat on the office chair and said with a smile, "Please tell me why you are here."

"Don't talk anymore, so I don't have to translate. I'll do the talking." An Ran smiled at Lin Youming. Lin Youming nodded and drank his tea.

An Ran said to the secretary, "We are here to arrest the members of Wangcai drug trafficking group. We have found out their specific location, but drug dealers live with the people and it is easy to hurt them by mistake. So we hope to get the cooperation of the local police and provide all the information you can. It would be best if someone can lead the way."

"You came here rashly without even knowing who you want to arrest. This is a real mistake. This is not the style of the Chinese special forces." The secretary shook his head, but there was no insult in his words.

An Ran nodded and smiled, "We came in a hurry, and because the last operation went so smoothly, we were a little careless. But it's not that we don't have any information at all. We still have information about Wangcai and his wife. But if we only capture Wangcai, the enemy will definitely rebuild the organization like last time. So we hope to catch the main culprits in one fell swoop to avoid future troubles."

"Okay, I will do my best to assist you." The secretary said with a smile, and then added, "The drug problem in Laos is deeply rooted and cannot be solved overnight. You may as well stay here for a few more days to appreciate the beautiful scenery and experience the local customs and culture."

"We can't wait any longer." An Ran shook her head, her tone firm, "Delay will only increase the risk. Can we take action tomorrow morning? We can raid them while they are having lunch."

"I will try my best to arrange it. Even if I cannot complete it all, I will give you an answer tomorrow morning." The town secretary said in a firm tone, although there was still a hint of softness in his attitude.

The town secretary always gives people the impression of being so thoughtful, but this thoughtfulness is tinged with an indescribable weakness.

Although An Ran didn't like this style very much, she didn't say much. She just nodded to express her gratitude and then left with Lin Youming.

The secretary walked them all the way to the door, and both sides waved goodbye.

Walking on the road, the hot weather makes people drowsy.

An Ran and Lin Youming were sweating profusely after just a few steps. Fortunately, the shade cast by the banana tree brought a hint of coolness, so that they were not too embarrassed.

"Do you think it's reliable?" Lin Youming turned to An Ran and asked with a smile on his face.

"It should be OK." An Ran turned around and responded, "After all, he is an official party and government leader, so there shouldn't be any major problems. Let's go back and make good preparations, and at the same time keep in touch with the organization to obtain the necessary information."

"Okay, let's try the local food, it's worth the trip." Lin Youming said with a smile, "Although it's a bit like a public-funded tour."

"Special forces members are also human beings. The organization will not let us fight on an empty stomach. This is reasonable." An Ran patted his shoulder. The two smiled at each other, then quickened their pace towards the hotel.

Wangcai was cleaning his Browning pistol in the village office of Baifen Village when his cell phone suddenly rang.

"Brother, what's the matter?" Wangcai answered the phone with a flattering smile on his face. Of course, he spoke Lao.

"Rats have broken in. They will come when you have lunch tomorrow at noon. They don't know our relationship. You should set up an ambush in the village and catch them all. There are a total of 48 people on the other side, and they don't have heavy weapons."

After listening to this, Wangcai nodded with gritted teeth and said viciously: "These rats killed my brother. This time I will make them pay the price. Don't worry, big brother, you will get the benefits when the time comes."

The other party laughed and then hung up the phone.

Wangcai put the Browning pistol on the table and shouted, "Come on, gather the brothers, we have a big deal!"

The men responded quickly, and soon more than a hundred drug dealers in green clothes gathered in the village office. They looked different, but there was a fierce light in their eyes.

"Brothers!" Wangcai stood beside the office chair, waved his hand, and said fiercely, "The rats are coming! Our chance for revenge has come! To avenge our dead brothers, everyone must seize this opportunity!"

"Revenge! Revenge! Revenge!" The drug dealers waved their guns and shouted aggressively.

Then, Wangcai divided his men into four groups in the order of wind, fire, thunder and lightning, and ambushed them on the route that the special forces had to pass.

The next morning, the sun was shining brightly.

After tasting the local delicacies, the special forces members did not become lazy at all. At six o'clock in the morning, everyone got up on time, made their beds in an orderly manner, and began to wash up.

Breakfast was coconut milk, boiled eggs and grilled meat, simple and refreshing. After the meal, the team members made final preparations in the hotel, while Lin Youming and An Ran went to the town committee.

When they arrived at the town committee, the gate had just opened. The guard recognized them, saluted immediately and motioned them to go in.

When he reached the door of the town secretary, he heard a conversation from inside. Lin Youming knocked on the door, and it opened immediately. The secretary nodded with a smile and said, "Jiliwula, Guliwali!"

This is a Laotian greeting that means "I've been waiting for you, my friends!"

Lin Youming smiled and nodded in response, while An Ran spoke to the secretary in Lao.

The secretary was still dressed neatly, with his slicked-back hair. He led the two men into the house and said with a smile, "I found a guide for you." He pointed to a young man who stood up after hearing the noise.

The man was wearing camouflage uniforms and looked like a soldier or a construction worker. He had a dark complexion, similar to an African. In tropical areas of Southeast Asia, this kind of race is not uncommon.

"Hello!" The man greeted the two in Lao and extended his hand.

Although Lin Youming didn't understand, he knew it was a greeting, so he smiled, nodded, and shook hands with him. He knew that the other party couldn't understand what he said, so he simply skipped the polite words.

An Ran responded in Lao and shook hands with him.

Then, the town secretary smiled and said, "His name is Wuliwala, and he is a militiaman in the town. He will take you to Baifen Village. In addition, I have some photos and information about the drug traffickers here, you can take them with you."

After saying that, he took out a stack of documents from the drawer and handed them to An Ran.

An Ran flipped through it and found that each page had profile pictures of four people, for a total of more than ten pages.

"Thank you, Secretary. Let's set off without further ado!" An Ran said with a smile, "In order not to alert the enemy, we need to act cautiously and make sure everyone remember these people's faces, so we can't delay." "Go ahead, I wish you a safe journey!" The secretary smiled happily and stood up to see the three off.

On the way, Wu Lihua introduced some information about the drug dealers to the two people, mainly An Ran. An Ran listened and read the information, silently memorizing it in her heart.

After returning to the hotel, they photocopied the information and distributed it to everyone.

"This is our guide, he will explain to everyone. We will take an hour to remember these people, and then we will set off." An Ran said to everyone.

"Okay." Everyone nodded in response.

An Ran's phone can project data, so she scanned and entered the information, using the white wall of the hotel as the background, and let Wu Li Wala explain it to everyone. An Ran translated on the side.

"This is the big boss Wangcai. I think everyone is familiar with him. I won't say much." Wu Li laughed, then pointed at the second person and said, "This is the second boss Gousheng. This is his nickname. His real name is Rugu Ouni. He is an Indian who moved here."

Everyone burst into laughter. The man's face was dark and his ears were turned forward. He really looked like a dog, so they all remembered it.

Wu Li Wala then introduced the others, speaking for an hour in total. After everyone had taken notes, they formed a team and set off.

Soon, they arrived at the crossroads near Baifen Village. They stopped the car, locked the doors, and walked into the village.

The village was quiet, with only wisps of smoke rising from some chimneys and the aroma of food floating in the air. A dog squatted by the roadside, and when it saw people coming in, it barked "wang wang wang", as if it was protesting or greeting people.

"Hello." Wuliwala waved and smiled at the dog in Lao language, and the dog stopped barking.

They continued walking, but there was still no one on the road. An Ran felt something was wrong. Normally, wouldn't there be people coming and going in the countryside at this time? Why was there only voices but no people?

She raised her right index finger to her teammates, signaling them to be careful. They nodded in response and tightened their grip on their guns.

"That's Wangcai's new headquarters." Wu Li Wala pointed at the magnificent village office and said to An Ran, "I'll take you there, be careful."

An Ran nodded in thanks and said, "Thank you for your hard work."

Wuliwala waved his hand and quickly disappeared between the houses.

Just as everyone was preparing to attack, gunfire suddenly broke out all around. More than a hundred gun muzzles appeared from rooftops, houses, haystacks, cow sheds, and windows, shooting wildly at the team members.

"Bang, bang, bang!" Several team members were shot and fell to the ground. Fortunately, everyone was wearing bulletproof vests and bulletproof helmets, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.

"Hide quickly!" Lin Youming shouted.

Everyone looked around and thought the captain was just daydreaming. Now, unless they could get into the ground, where else could they hide?

At this time, the PPK pistol showed its power. Almost all the gunners were hit, and the team turned the defeat into victory with ease, as if they were practicing target shooting.

"Great!" Everyone was so excited that they began to chase the remaining gunmen like autumn wind sweeping away fallen leaves. Some of them were shot accurately without even being able to see the person clearly.

Ten minutes later, everyone began to attack the village office. The village office was a one-story building similar to the village ancestral hall in ancient China. The eaves were antique. There were two large rings painted gold on the two black iron doors. There were two windows on both sides of the iron door like two eyes. There were fluorescent lights inside. Two machine guns were poked out and fired at the team members. However, the two machine gunners had already been killed. Although there were iron bars on the iron windows, the bullets seemed to have eyes and hit them impartially.

Lin Youming and An Ran cooperated tacitly and threw grenades into the two windows. In an instant, the wall collapsed. Everyone rushed in, but was met with dense bullets. However, they reacted quickly and fired decisively as soon as they caught a glimpse of a person. Every shot was accurate. Soon, only Wangcai was left in the village office. He hid in a sturdy iron lion and resisted stubbornly.

The big iron lion was like a tank, maybe equipped with cameras, with no windows to be seen, just bullets pouring out. PPK pistol bullets could not penetrate its defenses.

Lin Youming and An Ran teamed up again and threw grenades respectively. With two loud bangs, the iron lion was blown to pieces. Its entire body flew up from the ground, then broke like a sieve, and finally fell to the ground with a "bang". Wangcai turned into charcoal in the explosion, shaped like a roasted chicken rack.

"Mission successfully accomplished." After a careful search, An Ran and his teammates smiled at each other and clapped their hands in celebration.

"Unfortunately, the enemy set an ambush and we were caught off guard at first, resulting in the heroic sacrifice of several team members." Lin Youming sighed.

"War always involves sacrifice. If you are afraid of death, you should not join the army." An Ran responded calmly, and everyone nodded in agreement.

There was a large safe hidden in the house, which contained gold bars and US dollars. An Ran aimed at the lock of the safe, gently pulled the trigger, and the pistol instantly broke the lock. The safe opened with a "click!", and everyone saw a pile of money in front of them, which made them gasp.

"These villains are really making huge profits. In just one month, they have accumulated such a huge fortune." Lin Youming said angrily. He picked up a gold bar, weighed it and sighed, "Each gold bar represents the life of a drug addict! These unscrupulous guys really kill people and burn things, but they enjoy wealth and glory!"

"Humph, what's the use of a gold belt after a person dies?" An Ran laughed contemptuously, "Life is fair like this. You can become rich overnight by selling drugs, but you can also lose your life overnight because of it."

Everyone smiled at each other, put the money into their backpacks, walked out of the house, and carried it to the car.

"Should we destroy that poppy field? Otherwise, if any villagers are tempted by it and repeat the same mistake, the consequences will be disastrous," suggested a teammate.

Large fields of poppy flowers sway in the wind, colorful and beautiful, as if you are in the lavender fields or rapeseed fields of Provence.

"Alas, what's wrong with opium? The darkness in people's hearts is the root of drugs. Why should we blame opium?" An Ran smiled and said, "Let it go."

Everyone nodded in agreement, started the car and left Baifen Village.

On the way, An Ran suddenly asked: "The enemy is obviously prepared. Could it be that our actions have leaked the news?"

Lin Youming responded while driving: "That's true. We were very careful along the way and took secret routes. We only encountered a dog at the entrance of the village. Unless the enemy has installed cameras all over the mountains, they should not know our whereabouts."

"I didn't find any cameras, and the enemy's ambush was so secretive that it didn't seem like a spur-of-the-moment plan. I think something must have gone wrong." An Ran blinked and analyzed, "Could someone have tipped us off in advance?"
