My code name is Green Bull
Chapter 182 Fatal Threat
"What is going on? Please tell me quickly."
Knowing that the logistics director, one of the bosses behind the scenes, had a problem, Jon became anxious.
The underground grain business was his source of funds. If something went wrong, not only would his funds be gone, but his own status might also be in jeopardy. Of course, he wanted to know what was going on.
Lucian sighed first, and then said: "This matter is not complicated. It's because someone reported the old thing."
"He was reported? Is it because of our business?" Jon looked surprised.
"No, it's not because of our business, it's because of other things he did, but it's also more serious. I'm afraid he won't be able to keep his position this time and will most likely step down."
Speaking of this, Lucian's tone was full of resentment: "It is precisely because he knew that he might step down, so he was ready to make a desperate move and threaten us with our business, so that we would give him enough benefits, otherwise, he would take away our business , from beginning to end, everything is reported to the Marshal and the World Government."
At this time, Pemberton's uncle also cursed bitterly: "That old guy is really greedy, and he wants to blackmail us in the end. If it's one or two hundred million beli, we will bite the bullet and admit it, but you know, How much does he want from us?”
"How many?"
"Ten billion Baileys!"
"How many?"
The questions were the same twice, but the second time he asked how many, it was because Jon couldn't believe his ears.
"You're right, it's 10 billion Baileys." Lucien said.
"Is he crazy?"
Jon's expression also became ugly. Even he couldn't get that much out of 10 billion Baileys.
You must know that they have been doing this business for several years, but for the sake of safety, there are not many goods each time, so even Jon, so far, has used it sporadically and does not have 10 billion beli in deposits. .
Now the other party actually wants 10 billion beli. This is indeed very excessive. Even Devil Fruits such as surgical fruits, in the eyes of the World Government and the Navy, can only be purchased with 5 billion beli. It is conceivable that 10 billion beri Bailey is such a huge quantity.
"He is not crazy, but is as shrewd as ever. He knows that we can't come up with that much money, so he actually wants to convey to you through my mouth that the person he is really threatening is actually you."
Lucian knew very well that his immediate boss knew them well and knew that they could not spend so much money. Only Jon, a food producer, had this capital.
"You are right. Judging from his intentions, it seems that he wants to blackmail us before stepping down."
There was a strange smile on Jon's lips. He was a real man. This was the first time in his life that he had been blackmailed.
"What are your plans?"
Based on his understanding of Lucien and others, he knew that Lucien and the others would definitely not sit still and wait for death.
The old guy wanted to blackmail them for the last time, which was tantamount to forcing them. If Jon was offended, they would not be able to continue this business without capital.
A few years have passed, and Jon's dark business has spread over a large area. In the Navy Headquarters alone, many people are involved, and many others even rely on this business to make a living.
Once this business cannot continue, it will probably cause an uproar. None of them can afford this consequence.
Especially the top beneficiaries such as Lucien, they cannot accept any mistakes in the business.
The soul of this business is Jon. Anything can happen to anyone, but Jon can't make the slightest mistake.
Lucian said in a deep voice: "We can't come up with 10 billion Baileys at all. Even the money you saved is not enough for 10 billion. We can only carry out another large-scale operation in the short term, but this will It’s very risky, and we are all used to it and don’t want to take risks.”
Pemberton's uncle also interjected: "Yes, our current channels and manpower are sufficient. Although everyone wants to make more money, in comparison, everyone is still more concerned about safety issues, and no one wants to expose their business." , after all, no matter what, this kind of business is a dark business, and once it is exposed, it will never end well."
The source of their business is the Logistics Department of the Navy Headquarters. Basically all the reliable people in the Logistics Department are involved in the business. Many people even bring in relatives and friends in order to make money.
The profits of this kind of business exceed tens of billions every year. If you divide it layer by layer, even the lowest level can make hundreds of thousands or millions of beli every year. The core people can make tens of millions or hundreds of millions without any problem.
It makes money without affecting work. As long as people participate in this kind of thing, basically they will not be willing to give up.
But similarly, no one is willing to expose themselves for business. The navy's life is very dignified. If exposed, the navy will not be able to stay, and even oneself will be in danger.
"You don't want to take risks, you mean, give me money?"
Jon's eyes flashed. He felt that Lucien and the others were not so easy to compromise, even if the other party was their immediate superior.
"Give me a shit."
Lucien cursed loudly: "That old guy is a lion. We can't satisfy him. This time he dares to blackmail us. Who knows if there will be another time. We must not spoil him."
Jon nodded, and he agreed with Lucian's words, "Since you don't want to pay me, then what do you want to discuss when you call me over, and how are you going to deal with it?"
"I don't want to compromise, and I can't be exposed. After thinking about it, there is only one choice."
Lucian suddenly paused, and then uttered a word in a cold tone.
"kill."
Jon's heart suddenly skipped a beat, he sat up and stared at Lucien: "Lucien, are you serious?"
"Seriously, very seriously."
"Is this what you think alone, or is it what everyone thinks?"
Lucian snorted unhappily: "We are all forced to have no choice. Jon, you are our mastermind, but you don't know that except for you, the people on our line have no choice but to treat that old thing." How dissatisfied.”
Jon listened carefully to Lucian's venting.
"In our business, you, as the mastermind, got 30%, but you still suffered a loss. But do you know how much of the share the old guy has swallowed up since he took charge of the business?"
"Thirty percent, a full 30%, the same share as you. There are so many of us running around and working hard, but he does nothing, and only one person gets 30%. This is already dissatisfying; but you don't know, he even wants He got more shares, but no one was willing to give in anymore, and he knew he couldn’t anger everyone, so he gave up the idea.”
"Actually, it's not just this business. There are a lot of lucrative businesses in the logistics department, and he wants to take the lion's share. Everyone tolerated him before, but this time he knows that his position is not guaranteed, and he has already broken out."
Jon: "So, you guys just keep doing it and think of ways to kill him?"
"This is a once and for all solution. We have also thought of other ways to persuade him, but he is not willing to give in at all. Ten billion beli cannot be lost. We are forced to a dead end and can only resist."
"But you should know very well how risky it is to kill a lieutenant general in the headquarters, and what the consequences will be if you are discovered."
Lucian: "Of course we know very well that if there was no way out, we wouldn't want to make this decision; Jon, that old guy is too greedy, and he will not keep his promise, so we must get rid of him .”
Jon banged on the table, thinking a lot, planning to kill a Vice Admiral of the Navy. If this was spread, I don't know how much of a sensation it would cause. Lucien and his gang were really brave.
But with so many of them agreeing with this idea, I'm afraid they were really pushed to a dead end.
"Do you have a plan?"
Since Lucian told him, it means that they have already started planning.
Lucian looked gloomy: "We did have an idea, but the old fox was too defensive and stayed at the headquarters base and refused to go out at all. We had no chance."
No matter how courageous they are, they dare to attack and kill Shangguan for their own benefit and self-protection, but they dare not do it at the headquarters base. It is no different from seeking death.
"We suspect that the old fox may have doubted us. Now he doesn't trust anyone and is unwilling to contact us at all. He has stayed at the base."
"It is indeed the old fox. It seems that he really wants money rather than his life. No, to be precise, he is betting that we dare not fall out with him, so there is no room for negotiation?"
Jon analyzed the other party's thoughts and was sure of Lucien again.
Lucian shook his head: "There is no room at all. He will not talk to us at all. He has even begun to arrange for his people to evacuate. He has been the logistics minister for more than 20 years and has many more channels than us. , we have no control over his actions at all, and we don’t know how many plans he has.”
Jon was really speechless. He originally thought Lucian was very shrewd, but now it seems that so many of them were completely fooled by the old fox. They came to him for help because they had no other choice.
Killing a Vice Admiral, to be honest, Jon didn't want to do it, the risk was too great.
It's just that the business is now under threat. If he is exposed, he will definitely bear the brunt. The position of lieutenant general that is almost certain to be lost will be gone, and even the Navy headquarters will find it difficult to have a place.
"Jon, this cancer must be pulled out, otherwise we will all have a hard time. I don't mean to force you, but now we are all in the same boat, and we must work together to solve this trouble."
Lucien had been observing Jon, but he couldn't figure out what Jon was thinking and was quite anxious.
Jon was thinking. Originally, he just wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to be promoted to lieutenant general, but he didn't expect that this trouble would arise.
The old fox grasped the timing very accurately and determined that Jon had no choice, so he dared to ask for 10 billion beli. Normally, he would not even dare to think about this number.
