Please make money.

"Yes, I bought business class just because I could use this package."

The senior nodded repeatedly, indicating that he had booked an airport pick-up package, which included an executive-class car.

Of course Ailia had no objection and followed the other person, dragging her suitcase. The more ordinary the journey, the better.

But, for human beings, luck is like an electrocardiogram. A stable line only means that the person is gone.

Everything went smoothly before, everything went smoothly in the sky, but the airport pick-up was not smooth...

"I've sent you my location, please follow the navigation to pick me up."

"Okay, I'll be there right away!"

"Hello, there's a little traffic jam on the road, we'll be there soon."

"My route is a bit roundabout, and I still have five minutes."

"We're almost there. Oops, there's a traffic jam here. We're already at the door. Why don't you guys go get something to eat first?"

There were quite a few people at Bangkok International Airport at 11 o'clock at night, and the tropical climate was not cold.

But when you are in a foreign land, you can only see dim lamp posts when you look up, and the city is at the end of your sight, so your mood becomes a little subtle.

An Lele's people have arrived. Alia even saw several NPCs who had been recruited from the book before. They were just across the street.

To be exact, there was an entire convoy across the street—a very impressive convoy—including five modified Raptor pickup trucks alone.

Does it mean that in a tropical city like this, wearing a floral shirt and driving a pickup truck gives you a bonus?

In the middle is a Mercedes-Benz S-Class bulletproof official car that is surrounded, probably because it is used in the city.

The other off-road vehicles were much more low-key. Alia recognized a Land Cruiser with steel plates. The windows were all painted black, but there was a custom rack on the sunroof.

"Is it them?"

"Yes, one platoon, forty people, three platoon commanders, two assault squads, a fire support and logistics medical squad, two helicopters are available at any time, and there are backup cars. This is the first assault squad and fire support squad led by Black Bee Tiger. The second assault squad is on standby. Er Shao and Xiao Yu are both in the hotel. The main task now is to pick you up."

"Is the equipment okay?"

"No problem. Siam doesn't ban guns. More importantly, the military here...these equipment are half-sold and half-given away by the government."

An Lele rubbed his fingers, meaning that this place was rather corrupt and it was more appropriate to use the money.

They were distributed on site by the original manufacturer, and some of the off-road vehicles even had military license plates from Bangkok.

An Lele actually got two big ones, but unless something unexpected happens, it’s better not to use them.

After waiting for about ten minutes, the driver finally came, driving a nanny car, which looked very decent.

An Lele made a few gestures before getting on the car. The Black Bee-Tiger, who had been watching from the convoy, put down his binoculars and said, "Follow me."

The nanny car was driving in front, but she didn't know that the cars in front and behind her were quietly - well, not really quietly - catching up with other cars.

Black Bee Tiger looked at the navigation sent by An Lele, but frowned when comparing it with the current route.

"Something's not right. Contact the Warthog. The route has deviated... Everyone, prepare for battle!"

……

……

"Driver, are you taking a detour?"

"No, it's faster here - well, taxis here don't use meters, it's okay, you have a coupon, right? But our company can't use it, how about this, you give me one thousand baht, and I'll use the coupon to offset it?"

The chubby but bearded driver looked in the rearview mirror and smiled unkindly.

"The platform agreed on the price! How can you add money offline? And one thousand Thai baht is almost more than two hundred, and the total cost to me at the hotel is less than one thousand Thai baht!"

"No, handsome guy, you guys are out here to have fun, so be generous, right? Besides, you brought so many pretty girls with you, it would be bad if I drove the wrong car and went to some weird place."

"You are blackmailing me! I have filed a complaint against you on my platform - I have called the police!"

"Then call the police. The most I can say is that we couldn't agree on the fees. If you file a complaint, I will just be fined to attend three hours of legal training."

"you--"

"When we go out to play, having fun is the most important thing, right? It's just too late today, otherwise we could go to the art gallery or meet the monks, which would be suitable."

The so-called art gallery is actually just a small shop selling low-quality jewelry, and the staff inside are all gangster-like.

The monks are even more interesting - whether you kneel or worship is not your own will, but when the monks pray for you, you have to obey obediently.

As for your wallet and cell phone being lost... maybe they were stolen by a monkey.

Tuk-tuks love to play these tricks the most, and they especially like to actively chat up foreign tourists. The little three-wheeled cars will take the fat sheep to their destination with a tuk-tuk sound.

The senior brother was very angry, but what the other party said was very right. Compared with two hundred yuan and the safety of several junior sisters, it didn’t seem to be a very difficult decision.

In a tourist city like this, it is unlikely that the other party would rob or kill people, but harassment and even beatings are likely to occur.

"I shouldn't have been so cheap as to arrange a third party to pick me up at the airport...You speak Chinese very well, I will remember you."

"Hahaha, if I don't learn from you, how can I take orders? I have also worked hard to achieve what I have today. Look at it calmly, handsome guy. You come here to play in a glamorous way. As long as you are willing to spend money, I will be very happy. I am just serving you."

Gritting his teeth, the senior brother took out his wallet, but Alia held it down.

"Don't give him the—stop."

"Beauty, you can't get a taxi. It's eleven o'clock. If it's daytime, I won't charge you overtime pay. Do you know why? This place is far from the city-"

"Bang------"

With a muffled sound, the two off-road vehicles on the left and right changed lanes and sandwiched the car, and the two cars in front and behind were directly blocking each other.

The tarpaulin was lifted from the rear bed of the Raptor pickup truck in front, and two muscular men wearing bulletproof vests and holding Christmas trees in their hands signaled the driver to slow down and stop with their guns.

Another one was holding a loud speaker and asking the passengers in the car: "Sir——Are you ok?"

"You said something that makes sense. When you go out to play, as long as you are willing to spend money, you will be happy... Guess how much I spent?"

"?????"

261-Darkness, too dark! for "Apple Blossom" 4/20

Actually, under normal circumstances, people will only cheat you of a small amount of the car fare.

Most tourists who come to Siam have encountered this kind of scam - especially taxis that don't use meters.

There are two types of taxis in Siam, one with a sign that allows you to pay by meter, and the other type that does not require a meter and allows you to negotiate directly.

Most local taxis are super cheap, so in order to increase their income, many taxi drivers in Siam will use their brains elsewhere.

It is normal for them to take customers on a detour, as they don't know how to navigate the streets and alleys anyway, so they usually charge ten or twenty yuan more than normal.

That is, the Thai baht is equivalent to between 50 baht and 100 baht. This happens especially at tourist attractions or airports during the day, after all, there are tourists everywhere.

To avoid this kind of thing, the easiest way is to either entrust the hotel's lobby manager to book a taxi, or to use a regular online taxi-hailing platform.

Local drivers dare not bully the hotel lobby manager. They know the difference between having a full meal every day and having a full meal every day.

Some high-end hotels will even help record the taxi number, and then pay through the hotel waiter after the round trip.

Although you have to tip the waiter a little - after all, this is a place where tipping is the default rule - it is at least much safer.

But it’s too late to say these things now. On the road at 11 o’clock in the evening, a convoy surrounded a nanny car, and four or five big men rushed out of the convoy.

The driver who came to pick us up at the airport held his hands high in the air and was shaking like a sieve, totally confused as to what was happening.

The red dot of the laser aiming moved around his body - under normal circumstances, infrared aiming uses invisible light, so this was obviously an additional deterrent effect.

The laser aiming indicator with a red line in the smoke in the movie is more about the needs of movie shooting and audience viewing.

But it is obvious that this thing is intimidating enough!

The red dot landed directly on his forehead. Looking at the several spots of light swaying around on his body, the driver almost cried.

There were even two red dots that moved to the bodies of the senior brothers and sisters, and then disappeared immediately, which clearly indicated that these were friendly units.

An Lele jumped out of the car: "What the hell is going on..."

"Warthog, are you okay?"

"Don't call me by that code name!"

"Okay, A10—now what?"

"No danger, lift the combat readiness and withdraw the troops."

"Yessir!"

Several muscular men wearing bulletproof vests and full special forces equipment saluted, raised their guns to the sky, and made way.

Black Bee Tiger got out of the car to meet Alia, and did not pay any attention to the shaking driver the whole time.

"It's been a while since we last met, Miss Ai. I'm glad to be hired by you."

Alia is a very good employer. She is paid well and has little work to do, so she is willing to take the blame. But if something goes wrong, she will really bear the consequences.

They made such a big fuss in the book before, but the entry and exit warning was quickly lifted afterwards. It is said that it was Alia who was behind it.

What's more important is that the other party provides formal professional equipment, which is much better than an employer who gives them a Kalashnikov and asks them to do highly dangerous work.

"Oh, you're the commander?"

"I'm in platoon command. Those two guys, one is in charge of the second assault squad, and the other is in charge of the fire support squad."

As he spoke, Black Bee Tiger introduced to Alia the person in charge of the first assault squad, a man who looked very tough.

"Rumlow, used to work for the Secret Service and the Navy SEALs, a professional security officer and strike team leader. Rumlow, this is the BOSS."

Alia shook his hand. "Have we met somewhere before... Do you know a guy named Rogers?"

"Rogers? He sounds like a nice guy, but I don't think I know him."

“I see…” Alia nodded: “It’s okay. I’ll leave it to you for the time being.”

"No problem, our professional ethics are guaranteed."

Thirty thousand dollars a month, people wear bulletproof vests not to save their own lives, but to protect Alia from bullets.

"Boss, how do we deal with this guy?"

"Complain about their travel phone number...what should it be?"

"1155. Very useful, because the biggest monopolist in the tourism industry here is the King of Thailand."

Not only in the tourism industry, but also in transportation, hotels and other areas, the other party has a hand in it.

So if you take the airport bus from the airport, this won’t happen, because the airport bus is the property of the King of Thailand.

"Let's handle it according to the normal procedures, but before that, please give this guy a few more bottles of water."

"How many bottles?"

"Give him one. It's hard work for him to waste so much saliva in the middle of the night."

Alia checked her watch. "Okay, I need to go to the hotel - let's go."

Rumlow shrugged, "You're the boss. Get in the car, follow the formation, and put away the guys."

In fact, it is not necessary to bring out the Christmas tree, but since it is the first time everyone meets, the other party also wants to show off in front of the employer.

With so much money, no one will feel at ease if they don't work harder...

Alia turned to the other side and got on the bus. The driver didn't understand her whimpering, so he came over and hugged Alia's thighs to beg for mercy.

Alia offered him some water, but he thought that was like throwing him directly to the crocodiles.

"I was wrong! I was wrong - I won't dare to do it again next time! Please give me one chance!"

"Guess how much I spent on this trip?"

"me--"

"Ah……"

Alia ignored him. After getting in the car, she found that her senior brothers and sisters were still standing there in a daze, so she leaned out again and said, "Let's go. Senior sisters, do you still want to watch?"

"You...Xiao Ai...No, no, Miss Ai, who are you?"

"This is a long story. To make it short, I have some paranoia, so I hired some bodyguards."

...You call this a little?

The senior brother pushed his glasses and felt his scalp tingling - if he was not mistaken, the tarpaulin covering the pickup truck should be a machine gun, right?
