Lu Mingfei Returns from Monster Hunting

Chapter 228 The Deceiver and the Deceived (5k)

Russia's military industry trade is very deep. Although Ling's family is in the financial circle, they can't even touch the military industry.

And how could Alexander Bunin, an authentic Chinese, intervene in this industry and become the leader in it?

"That's right, my real name is Alexander Bunin." Bunin smiled, "Mr. Lu, you must think I'm Chinese, right? But unfortunately, I'm a native Russian."

"You are a Tatar!" Zero suddenly realized.

"That's right, clever little girl." Mr. Bunin confirmed her guess.

Russia is actually made up of two parts, their economic centers are located within the territory of the Nordic region.

Most of the Russians here are blond and blue-eyed European and American looks.

But on the other hand, the vast majority of Russia's territory is in the north of Asia.

When Genghis Khan made an expedition to Europe in the past, he included this territory under the command of Mongolian cavalry. For a long time, the people who ruled this territory were actually yellow Mongols, who were called Tatars.

Later, the blood of the Tatars has been circulating in Russia, and many of the famous generals who served as the tsars and the Soviet Union have Tatar blood.

Some look completely Asian.

If they had another Chinese experience, it would completely make them think they were Chinese.

And Alexander Bunin just fits this feature.

"Mr. Lu is curious why my Chinese is so fluent? That's because I met a few friends from China when I went to Moscow to do business in my early years. They taught me to drink Moutai and import clothes. In those years, I always traveled to and from Border ports, on this side of the port, I drink vodka, speak Russian, and after passing the port, I drink Moutai and eat dumplings. I buy goods in the northeast region and sell them on the black market in the republics, earning a lot of money. "

Mr. Bunin said with emotion: "But the current situation suddenly changed. The Soviet Union disintegrated, and the great ideals were shattered. It was a chaotic era. You could exchange a box of Moutai for a tank that just left the factory, and you could also use a pair of stockings. I made friends with beautiful girls who reached the level of Miss Russia. Through chatting with my friends, I quickly understood that the military industry was the greatest legacy of the Soviet Union. So I closed the foreign trade company and became an arms dealer. I made friends with high-ranking officials in the Soviet era, and through them Find various military factories and help them exchange useless stocks and blueprints for winter food, beautiful clothes for my wife, and exquisite toys for children. I have made a lot of money through the arms trade, and my status in Moscow is also growing Stable. But I knew that the stock in the warehouse would be sold out one day, so I switched to buying military factories and contracting projects for the Ministry of Defense. Gradually everyone knew the name of Alexander Bunin. I also knew that the arms industry is a big problem. It is a clean industry, so I often do charity and give a little help to others, maybe because I have been in your country and I believe in the theory of retribution."

He described the stories of that era calmly, as if those legendary stories were not worth mentioning.

Lu Mingfei and Zero looked at each other, both a little shocked.

To tell the truth, Lu Mingfei also saw stories about steamed buns being exchanged for cannons during the disintegration of the Soviet Union in some novels and story fairs in his early years, but none of these things written in books were shocking to the people who had personally practiced them. .

"I am a person left over from the old era, and the new era has no ships that can carry me, but fortunately, the things left over from the old era can help me earn some money, otherwise all I can entertain you is sour black bread .”

Mr. Bunning pointed to the boys and girls at the table.

"Come on, meet my friends!"

"Mr. Cherneyaniv, his great-grandfather was Brezhlenev's foreign minister. We generally call him Valoja." Xiang Lu, a tall and straight boy with a little freckle on the nose, looked like he was in his early twenties. Mingfei nodded.

"Sonya, her grandmother Ivanovna was the chief confidential secretary of the Soviet Union's foreign ministry. She performed well in the Cuban Missile Crisis and later served as the deputy foreign minister." The beautiful Russian girl with two taels of Moutai greeted Lu Mingfei with her hands. The alcohol burned her cheeks red, and her youthful vigor evaporated like boiling spirits.

Mr. Bunin introduced it counterclockwise. A series of brilliant and prominent names, which once illuminated the political arena of the Red Empire, are now covered in the dust of history.

"My previous business partners have passed away, and what you see now are their heirs. You can understand us as a cooperative, and members help each other. The military industry is a high-risk industry, and supporting each other will live longer A few. The table is basically fixed, but occasionally we invite new friends if they are friendly and qualified to sit with us.”

"Do you know who he is? Do you think he is qualified to sit with you?" Zero intervened in the conversation between the two.She had no interest in the arms-dealing circles in Moscow, nor in Alexander Bunin, and she came here only because she believed in the note Vatutin had left.

"Recently, the various forces are not very safe. I have a cooperation with the college where you study, Your Royal Highness. They are a group of well-behaved businessmen. They are very reputable in our circle. We respect each other but do not respect each other. We got very close, until not long ago they suddenly asked me to find a way to persuade the Ministry of Defense to allow their school’s network to enter Russia. This is a very excessive request. How could Russia open the country’s door to a college? It is clear that this is an excessive request. They claim that there is a missing student in their college who may have followed Your Highness to Russia. That was the first time I heard Mr. Lu’s name. At that time, I had a feeling that he should be a very interesting person. people."

Alexander Bunin is humorous and sincere, and he is the kind of person who can easily generate a sense of trust, but for Zero, the accumulation of trust only depends on the time spent together.

She did not immediately believe what Alexander Bunin said.

In fact, Kassel College has its own intelligence agencies and business organizations all over the world. Apart from monitoring the activities of dragons, they spend more time making money. Many of Kassel College’s huge expenses come from the branches. contribute.

It is not difficult to speculate that the Russian branch is also engaged in military trade. To do business in this circle, you have to get acquainted with Alexander Bunin.

This shows that the people in the Russian branch must have a certain cooperative relationship with Alexander Bunin.

As long as the other party has a little involvement, then you cannot fully trust.

Moreover, Zero thought that the level of secrecy was in place, so how could he be easily discovered by the school gang?

"It depends on how you understand the word 'interesting'. If it refers to being able to fight a bloody way through the crowd with a gun, then he is indeed a 'very interesting' person." Zero said coldly, "But That still doesn't explain how you tracked us down."

"I didn't follow him, just like your school didn't follow him. I followed you from beginning to end, Your Highness Zero Razumovskaya Romanova."

Mr. Bunning smiled.

"I am looking forward to meeting you and Mr. Lu, but I also hope that Mr. Lu can prove that he is really the interesting person I thought. So I concealed my identity to chat with him and gave him some hints. As I said May he be the kind of gold that can shine by itself, even the dark night can't hide his light."

"Of course, it's also possible that Mr. Lu has discovered my true identity a long time ago, and what he said was just a trick specially performed for me to see, but I think this possibility is very low."

Lu Mingfei nodded.

To be honest, he didn't see the true identity of Alexander Bunin at first, because this person is not a little dragon, and he doesn't have the arrogance and majesty of those in power, so he can easily deceive most people's eyes .

"Mr. Bunin thought I was interesting, that's why he decided to invite me to your dinner party?"

"Of course, I will never miss any potential partners." Mr. Bunin raised his glass full of Moutai and drank it down.

"Then about Mr. Bunin's rumored request to unconditionally do the inviter a small favor..."

"Go ahead."

Such arrogance made both Lu Mingfei and Ling silent for a moment.

Finally, Zero handed over the note he had prepared to Mr. Bunin, which contained the coordinates of Black Swan Harbor.

"We want to go to this place, it's in a restricted area, can you help us?"

Mr. Bunin glanced at the coordinates, took the tablet handed by the maid and looked it up, looking surprised.

"Why do you want to go to this place? The management of this place is very strict, basically no outsiders are allowed to enter, and it is said that it will be destroyed by a nuclear explosion in a year or two."

"Nuclear explosion?" Lu Mingfei was taken aback. He almost thought that the people still in Black Swan Harbor knew the news of King Bai's recovery and were about to retreat.

But Mr. Bunning's explanation soon let him know that it was not what he guessed.

"The nuclear test bases in the Soviet era were mainly in northern Siberia and Novaya Zemlya. The land there was sparsely populated, barren, and the cost was minimal. Hundreds of thousands of people went there one after another to dedicate their youth. It was a burning age. It's a pity. The burning time lasted very short. After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the military facilities in Siberia were all abandoned. Some were simply buried, and some were exposed to the air and slowly rusted. But those facilities still have military significance. They are of high value. If you study them, you will get some advanced military technology in the Soviet era, and even semi-finished weapons. More and more foreign expeditions have entered this abandoned land, and we don’t want old-timers The secrets fall into those hands, so the best thing to do is to bury the past in the soil with a blast."

Mr. Bunin opened his hands and made an exaggerated nuclear bomb explosion.

Lu Mingfei asked: "How did Mr. Bunin know so clearly?"

Even for a businessman in the arms business, it is difficult to know the state secrets so thoroughly.

In this regard, Mr. Bunin just spread his hands.

"Because my company undertook this project, launching missiles and blasting is a matter of the Ministry of National Defense. My people are responsible for clearing the field and locking the target. At that time, fifteen small and medium-sized intercontinental missiles will be released to fifteen pre-set locations. to destroy those ancient treasures. Frankly speaking, I also want to take the opportunity to dig some treasures in those ruins. I am a businessman. You Chinese say that if there is no profit, it will be early... Forget it, I may say It's a little too much."

Zero thought for a moment: "Then can you send us in there?"

Mr. Bunin shook his head: "Unfortunately, no, this will violate the agreement between me and the Ministry of National Defense. You should know that area is a military restricted area of ​​our country. Only those inside can leave, and there is no outside The possibility that people can go in."

"It's a pity." After learning that Bunin couldn't help them, Zero's face became a lot colder again.

Just when Lu Mingfei thought Ling would say goodbye and leave, Ling picked up a glass full of Moutai: "I am honored to attend your dinner party with Mr. Bunin, so let's start with this glass for tonight's wine!"

Mr. Bunning was taken aback for a moment, then laughed out loud, "Very well, I like the beginning, not the end."

The old and the young started to drink heavily, narrating in Russian, which Lu Mingfei could not understand, and Ling's performance was far more enthusiastic than when she met General Vatutin.

A well-built maid came over to refill them with new Moutais, and then gracefully removed them with a tray.

Lu Mingfei unconsciously stared at her back for a few moments, and immediately understood what Ling was thinking.

Zero is not a person who likes to drink, and the only reason why she would pull Alexander Bunin to drink can only be this.

No wonder I haven't seen them with long legs after entering the dinner party.

It seems that Zero probably guessed that Alexander Bunin could not help them much, so he prepared a second plan.

He quickly withdrew his thoughts, because the enthusiastic and unrestrained Sister Sonia had already walked to him with a wine glass, followed by the slightly shy little brother Valoja.

At this point, a grand dinner turned into a reception, and Lu Mingfei was surrounded by young and wealthy people in Moscow. Everyone shook hands and hugged to welcome this new friend.

Some of them pulled Lu Mingfei into the next dance floor, and the boys and girls danced traditional Russian dances and tango.

Under the influence of alcohol, they took off their restrained shells, smiled happily, and held hands in circles, like boys and girls dancing around a bonfire in a world of ice and snow.

On the dining table, Mr. Ling and Mr. Bunin's wine was dry, and the servants kept serving dumplings.

There are four maids gathered behind them, who can always guarantee that they will have hot dumplings to eat.

Lu Mingfei was a little tired, he couldn't dance tango, and he couldn't integrate into the circle of these young people.

Just resting alone against a pole next to the dance floor.

Being young is the most beautiful thing, it seems to be able to fight against all the haze in the world.

He is still young, but he doesn't know how much time is left for him.

……

When the sky turned pale, Ling returned to Elizabeth White House and pushed open the door of his bedroom.

Su Enxi was sitting cross-legged on the bed, using a hair dryer and hair straightening cream to straighten her seaweed-like hair.

For a lazy woman like her, maintaining curly hair is too much effort, it is better to straighten it decisively and directly.

Ling lay down beside Su Enxi, breathing out the alcohol slowly: "Have you found anything?"

Su Enxi is the mastermind of this plan.

She directed their division of labor and cooperation using micro-surveillance facilities and wireless satellite calls.

Ling dragged the host and guests into the restaurant to revel, so that it was convenient for Jiude Mai and Old Tang to search for other places.

Su Enxi scratched her head: "There doesn't seem to be anything worth paying attention to in his house. The big long legs found a laptop on the shelf of his study. After cracking the password, it contained a plan for the removal of old military facilities in Siberia, which was different from what he knew. The news is consistent. NO.13 saw a wall in the conference room of his home, and on the wall were photos of him with his children, all kinds of children, and he is indeed a kind-hearted philanthropist."

"So we have no reason to doubt Alexander Bunin, do we?"

"Yes, that old guy seems too honest. Everything he said is well documented. I really wanted to doubt him, but I just couldn't find any loopholes in him." Su Enxi said helplessly.

However, Zero's complexion was very calm, and she said lightly: "I found one. Alexander Bunin lied in the conversation with us. He knows Black Swan Harbor, at least a part of it."

"Oh? How did you find out?"

"The coordinates I gave him are wrong." Zero said slowly.

"Wrong?" Su Enxi was taken aback.

"I changed that coordinate and moved it about 120 kilometers to the right on the map, but he just glanced at it and immediately told me that coordinate was going to be destroyed with a nuclear explosion. But his plan was to use 15 small nuclear warheads to accurately Destroying fifteen targets, in that kind of precision strike, 120 kilometers is a big error, and he didn't notice it at all."

Su Enxi suddenly realized: "You mean he doesn't know that coordinate at all!"

"The Soviet era left behind the legacy of genetic technology. Even if he didn't know about dragons, he would be tempted by such things, but he didn't know the location of that place, so he invited us to his dinner party. What was interesting to Lu Mingfei? They are all excuses. His real purpose is to trick us into telling us the location of the coordinates. Now that he has the coordinates, he still controls that area. The time before the missile is launched is enough for him to dig Black Swan Harbor to the bottom. .”

Su Enxi couldn't help laughing: "But he dug to the end and only got rocks!"

Although known as the think tank of the small group, she had to admire Zero's wit at the banquet at this moment.

If that old guy really knew the location of Black Swan Harbor, they might not be able to reach Black Swan Harbor before the old guy.

But Zero didn't smile as happily as she did. She rubbed her chin and pondered for a moment, then her expression suddenly became alert.

"There is another possibility. After obtaining the coordinates, the first thing he will do is to eliminate other people who know the coordinates, such as... us?"
