After getting downstairs, Lu Yuan took a cotton coat from Anna and put it on.
I checked the time; it was already past 8:30.
"It's getting late, we should go."
A hint of doubt flickered in Liu Qing's eyes. She wanted to ask, but knew it might not be appropriate to ask in this situation, so she simply nodded.
"Okay, are you going back? Why don't you and Liu Ke stay in that room for the night? Let Anna sleep in my room tonight, I'm on the night shift anyway?"
Lu Yuan shook his head.
"No, I just asked my boss for a few days off, and I'm planning to leave!"
After saying that, Lu Yuan turned to leave, just as footsteps came from upstairs.
"Lu Yuan, come with me to the car and get some things."
Lu Yuan smiled slightly. The reason he left halfway through his sentence was to see what the boss meant.
He knew the other party definitely wanted to take action, but he lacked the necessary personnel, so he wanted Lu Yuan to help him solve the problem.
Who knew that Lu Yuan would leave after saying only half of what he wanted to say? He was a little annoyed, so he had to swallow his pride and call Lu Yuan over to talk about these things again.
So Lu Yuan turned to look at Anna, then turned around and followed her to her old, dilapidated car.
This time, Luo Cheng offered Lu Yuan a cigarette, and after the two of them leaned back in their seats and quietly finished their cigarettes, Luo Cheng finally spoke up, saying, "This matter is a bit tricky."
"Of course, nothing is easy. After all, taking over the whole no-man's-land might take some trouble, but given Mr. Luo's wealth, it shouldn't be a problem."
"The Razor Gang ruled this area for far too long, and the people here seemed to have given up resisting. Now that I've killed them and provided you with such good news, if you don't rise up now, you might never have another chance."
Luo Cheng sighed: "You don't know some of the things involved. If it were really that easy to solve, would I need you to remind me? Other forces would probably have already made their move!"
The people caught in the middle are Earthlings, and these alien invaders are ruthless. They don't want to manage these messy things, but they also want to take a cut from this no-man's-land!
Moreover, they absolutely must control the mining area, but because we have our own human population here, their workers have to come from our side, so they have to consider the price issue.
The price is the most crucial factor. If I can convince the people of Earth, I can easily take over even if you give me twice the size of the territory!
Lu Yuan stroked his chin, pondered for a long time, and then asked, "What kind of price would satisfy the people of Earth?"
"Hey, what price? But if we give them the freest labor, that's what they'll like the most. But how is that possible? We need to eat and drink and produce our own food."
We've given them all our labor, so how are we supposed to survive? Therefore, we must ask them to give us more resources.
We can't give up our mineral resources either. These are essential for our survival; we could trade them with the Earthlings or use them for our own internal needs—they would be extremely valuable!
After the two talked for a while, they finally settled on the price. However, this would take a long time, so Lu Yuan had to hide carefully during this period to avoid being discovered by the law enforcement team from Blue Star.
If Lu Yuan is discovered by Blue Star's law enforcement team, then his imprisonment is not far off.
Therefore, he must ensure his safety. During this period, it is best not to show his face in public, but to stay at his residence and not worry about anything else.
After the two of them briefly finalized the matter, Lu Yuan agreed that Luo Cheng could contact him again when he needed his help.
However, for now, the priority is to clean up some messes, such as dismembering the members of the Razor Gang. That's the most important thing.
If the Razor Claws are no longer directly involved, they will quickly form a new force, and if they sweep through the no-man's-land again, things will turn back to the way they were before.
After discussing the matter, Lu Yuan got out of the car.
Looking at the already dark sky, and with the heavy clouds giving the impression that it might rain again.
Since the arrival of the Blue Star people, the temperature on Earth has become abnormally varied.
If it rains, it could very well lead to another wave of people dying in this rainstorm.
The cold weather would make the nighttime temperature even lower, and Lu Yuan's quilt and cotton clothes were no longer sufficient for their accommodation needs, so Lu Yuan planned to find a more comfortable place to stay.
Actually, he himself is fine, but Anna is waking up every night because her house is so cold.
After a moment of contemplation, Lu Yuan looked back at Luo Cheng, who was preparing to start his car and leave the tavern.
"Boss, there's something I'd like to ask you for a favor!"
Luo Cheng turned the key and put it down. The car was too old, and the temperature was a bit cold, so it took him a long time to start. He slapped the steering wheel in frustration. Hearing Lu Yuan knocking on the window, he put the key down and looked up at Lu Yuan outside the window.
"What's wrong? Is there anything else?"
"Um, do you have any places for your men to stay? This Deep Sea Tavern area is getting a bit dangerous, and I'm worried it might get you in trouble, so could you help me find a place to stay?"
After pondering for a long time, Luo Cheng looked in the direction of the tavern again.
"Here's what we'll do. There's a young lady with you, right? Let her come and get in the car with us. I'll take you to a new place. I've just started a new mining area there, and there's no one in charge right now. While you're away for the next few days, please help me manage that area. I'll pick you up after I've finished up with these things!"
After hearing this, Lu Yuan's face lit up with joy, as if there was no better place to hide than this.
These newly opened mines have no manager, so they are basically untouched by outsiders.
These places are generally very desolate, but the facilities are usually quite complete, so if you use such a place to hide, you will basically not be discovered.
Lu Yuan returned to the tavern and waved to Anna, who quickly grabbed her bedding and got into the car with him.
