Siheyuan: Since 51

As expected, Solovikov left the Special Operations Bureau and went straight to the Gallic Chicken House.

Lin Zhiyuan didn't care how they talked or chatted. It was enough to make sure the two of them were communicating.

Three days later, Raul finally arrived in Beijing.

Lin Zhiyuan went to Nanyuan in person to pick people up, arranged accommodation for them, agreed to discuss business tomorrow, and took Raul out for dinner and drinks.

August 8th, office.

Both parties sat down and exchanged greetings.

Raul and Lin Zhiyuan are the same age, both thirty-five.

He has a high nose bridge, thick eyebrows, and looks quite handsome.

He is young, holds a high position, is full of energy and confidence in his words and deeds.

He looked around and joked cheerfully.

"Lin, you know, everyone in the cigar world worships your old man, and you not only have his calligraphy and collection of essays, but also his statue. I envy you so much."

Lin Zhiyuan raised his eyebrows slightly and laughed.

"Don't be envious. Before you leave, I'll give you that statue."

Raul was startled, then his eyes widened and he exclaimed.

"Really? If it was anything else, I definitely wouldn't take away someone's beloved thing. But this is the old man's statue, I will definitely take it away later."

Lin Zhiyuan smacked his lips, pretending to be distressed.

"There's nothing we can do. We are brothers, right?"

Raul slapped his thigh and said, "Of course, the old man's thoughts are the guiding light for cigars."

After the death of Marx, Lenin and Stalin, the old man's position in the camp was truly unmatched.

……

After chatting for a while, Lin Zhiyuan took the lead in getting down to business.

"Raul, I heard America is in a mess right now, is the cigar okay?"

"It must be hard to be next to Da Piaoliang. How can I stay out of it?"

Raul raised his eyebrows, asked back, and then the corners of his mouth slightly curled up.

"After receiving your message, my second brother has analyzed that our two families are in the same camp and will definitely want to support Cigar."

Having said that, there is no hesitation at all.

"Let's get this over with quickly so I can go back. We need help everywhere at home."

Lin Zhiyuan was quite surprised. He thought there would be some arguing, but it seemed that there was no need for that, so he spoke slowly.

"It's like this. My family is poor, and with the debt collection from Russia and natural disasters, and the blockade by both poles, life is not easy. However, the old man said that cigars are good brothers, and we can't just turn a blind eye even if we sell everything we have."

Raul grinned and laughed heartily.

"The old man is indeed an old man. Tell me your plan in detail."

"Free aid is not possible, but we can purchase sugar and cotton in unlimited quantities."

Raul was stunned and pondered for a moment. Then he came to his senses and raised his voice unconsciously, "Are you sure?"

Lin Zhiyuan spread his hands and chuckled.

"Of course, I don't recommend you to ask for money. Supplies are more important, aren't they?"

Raul was deeply touched. He had to buy it even if he had money. The Soviet bear was too far away and might not be available in America. He nodded vigorously.

"Yes, barter is the best option. We need a lot of fireworks and anthologies."

Fireworks, Lin Zhiyuan could understand.

As long as we can find a way to spread it into a few stores in America, we can not only cause trouble for Da Piaoliang, but also earn the price difference, and also improve our status, achieving three goals at one stroke.

Anthology, I didn't expect that.

This thing has a different language, can't it be printed in America itself?

……

Perhaps sensing Lin Zhiyuan's confusion, Raul explained with a smile.

"It would be more accurate if the anthology was translated by the Rabbit Scholar. Besides, the cigars are too small and the demand is too great if we want to promote them in America."

"understood."

Lin Zhiyuan nodded thoughtfully, pretending to be regretful.

"As for fireworks, our family's industrial foundation is poor, so we definitely don't have anything too advanced. Even if it's an international brand, I still need to apply for it. You should be able to guess that."

Raul didn't care and waved his hands repeatedly.

"No problem, even if I lag behind, it doesn't matter. To be honest, I was originally planning to resell to other companies and support the local anti-hawk forces."

Lin Zhiyuan took a puff of cigarette, suddenly realized something, and muttered to himself.

My goodness, I knew that the two families were not getting along, but I never expected it to be so serious. They would never let go of anything that could cause trouble for Da Piaoliang.

Thinking about it again, the pig bend incident almost led to a fight.

Fidel was a man of courage and a real man, willing to make compromises and let the Russian bear stay at home while preparing to launch a rocket carrying mushrooms.

Thinking of this, I agreed immediately.

"Okay, I'll arrange for the collection and delivery of cigars right away, and you can give us sugar and cotton according to the situation."

Full of sincerity, not only did they solve the transportation problem, but they also delivered the goods first and paid later.

Raul was deeply moved and sighed silently.

As expected of a rabbit, as expected of an old man...

He stood up suddenly, excited and apologetic.

"The cigar was able to survive in the cracks because of the confrontation between the bear and the rabbit. During the stalemate between the rabbit and the bear, no matter whether it is the hairy bear or the beautiful girl, if they know that I came here secretly, it will not be good. The longer I stay, the higher the chance of being exposed. It's settled, I will go back to prepare now."

Lin Zhiyuan looked calm, but was speechless.

Being cautious is a good thing, and being anxious is understandable.

After half a month of hard work and traveling across half the globe, you are leaving after less than three hours of serious communication. Isn't that too hasty?

Raul walked around the coffee table, came to Lin Zhiyuan who stood up subconsciously, and hugged him.

"My good brother, I'll wait for your good news. Don't worry, it won't be long before the news of the fire in the beautiful back house spreads to the whole village."

Lin Zhiyuan hesitated for a moment and asked, "Are you really not going to stay a few more days?"

"No, I'll come again when I have a chance."

After Raul finished speaking, he let go of Lin Zhiyuan, walked straight to the corner, picked up the statue, and walked out.

I stayed for lunch and the flight had already been coordinated.

Nanyuan.

Raul held the statue in his arms and strode up the gangway. When he reached the cabin door, he turned back and waved, then turned around and went in without waiting for Lin Zhiyuan's reaction.

Lin Zhiyuan stopped and watched them go. Seeing this, he suddenly thought of Xiha.

The two people are simply two extremes.

One is anxious to leave, the other just wants to stay.

Why are there no normal people among the leaders of other families that I have made friends with?

……

On the way back to the Special Economic Bureau.

Bai Sha sat in the passenger seat, frowning slightly.

"Brother Lin, Raul is in a hurry, is there any problem?"

Lin Zhiyuan leaned in the back seat, looked out the window, and responded slowly.

"It doesn't matter. The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Cigar is located in America, not close to our home or the Russian bear. Even if we can't cooperate, it's fine to simply cause trouble for Da Piaoliang."

As he spoke, a hint of indifference appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"It's definitely not a big deal for this first transaction, so it won't be a big deal if it goes down the drain. Besides, the Great Wall wasn't built in a day, so don't rush, just take your time."

Bai Sha did not ask any more questions. It was her duty to give appropriate reminders. If she said too much, it would be counterproductive. She then smiled softly.

"It's quite interesting to think about it. We have the cooperation, but the needed materials are nowhere to be found."

Hearing this, Lin Zhiyuan turned around immediately and couldn't help but smile.

"How dare you say that? You're attending a security department meeting. Why haven't you heard back yet?"

Baisha smiled bitterly.

"You are worried about the weapons. The brigade commander knows that the security department will not hold any meetings recently."

Lin Zhiyuan was stunned, then shook his head, speechless.

"I was saying, why haven't I seen you recently? Are you trying to avoid me? I'll block the door tonight. As for you, don't worry about it. Just keep an eye out. I think John Ke will come."

"it is good."
