After inspecting the industries in Puda Prefecture and exchanging views with various partners to finalize future collaborations, An Moxue rushed back to Mongolia to inspect the ranches she had purchased.
Duoze also told An Moxue the latest news: "Miss Jiduo, the latest news is that the Borji family and the Kuroda family of the Japanese Kingdom have close ties, and it's a secret."
“Investigate these two establishments thoroughly, and focus on whether they have any involvement in witchcraft, especially in the area of prohibitions.”
Doze paused for a moment, then asked hesitantly, "Miss Jido, does witchcraft really exist in this world? What does a restriction look like?"
An Moxue thought for a moment: "Probably! The restriction is probably to implant some memories in a specific person's brain. As long as someone touches these memories, the restriction will activate a self-destruct mode and kill the person, making it seem like they died inexplicably. This will prevent the person from saying even the slightest clue about these memories."
“Miss Giddo, I understand.”
"This should be a family secret, and very few people must know it, so it won't be easy to investigate. Tell the people investigating not to rush. Be careful to keep it secret and secure."
"Miss Jido, do you have any plans for this grassland?"
"First, raise livestock, especially do a good job in veterinary and sanitary inspection. Once the scale is large enough, then establish an integrated production and sales system. Buy any ranches in the surrounding area that are for sale without hesitation, even if the price is a little higher."
"yes."
"Alright, you go ahead and get busy! I'll take a stroll by myself." After saying that, An Moxue mounted her horse and galloped off towards the distant grasslands.
An Moxue walked and stopped along the grassland, finally returning to her campsite. She was overjoyed. This was one of the first treasure troves she had discovered. Before she had absolute power, it was just an ordinary pasture. Only when she had the strength could she plan to mine the black coal underground.
The secrets that the An family has guarded for generations should not fall into the hands of others. They should all return to her so that she can decide where they go. Only in this way can the sacrifices of the An family be justified.
After inspecting the ranch, although she hadn't been able to completely acquire the mineral vein, the main vein was already in her hands, and it was a permanent property. She was confident that she could eventually acquire the other ranches in the surrounding area as well; it was just a matter of time.
Having finished dealing with matters abroad, An Moxue was eager to return to China, wondering how Uncle Ma was doing.
As An Moxue, dressed as a middle-aged woman and carrying large and small bags, stood at the entrance of the military base, she was overwhelmed with emotion—I have returned alive once again.
Just as the soldier on guard was about to drive her away, she took out a small notebook and handed it to him.
"Comrade, could you please check this?" The soldiers on guard duty were different every time they came back; the checks were exceptionally strict. After looking at the notebook, they even made a phone call.
After she came out, the soldier saluted An Moxue and said to her, "Comrade, you have passed the inspection, please come in."
An Moxue returned the greeting, then took the things and went inside.
The military songs played loudly all the way, which put her in a good mood.
Upon entering the Seventh Division of the State Security Bureau, Division Chief Ma Guangyuan was already waiting for her in front of the office building.
From afar, the section chief saw An Moxue dressed as a middle-aged woman, carrying large and small bags as she walked towards her.
He really didn't understand. She was clearly very young, yet every time she came back, she dressed up as a middle-aged woman. What kind of strange fetish was that? Didn't she care about her appearance? Didn't she want to dress herself up nicely?
Even though the two were still some distance apart, An Moxue called out, "Director."
Looking at such an enthusiastic face, Ma Guangyuan was a little worried. "An Moxue, with your middle-aged woman's face, why are you greeting me so warmly? Have you been abroad for too long and forgotten the situation back home? Or are you deliberately trying to cause me trouble?"
An Moxue was so happy to be back in China that she forgot about it.
Ma Guangyuan simply extended his hand in a lukewarm greeting.
After the two entered the building, Director Ma spoke up: "Hummingbird, have you forgotten that this is China? You have the face of a middle-aged woman, yet you greet me so enthusiastically?"
An Moxue stopped and apologized earnestly: "Director, I'm so happy to be back alive and see you. I forgot for a moment, I'll definitely be more careful next time."
Seeing her like this, Ma Guangyuan wasn't angry at first; he just wanted to remind her that this was something to be careful about in China. Seeing her so earnestly apologizing, he felt a little embarrassed. He hadn't meant to be offended; he just wanted to offer a gentle reminder.
"It's alright. Success or failure is determined by details, especially in our department. Sometimes details can determine a person's life or death, so you must not be careless."
"yes."
"This time you're back, take advantage of the holiday break to rest well, I won't assign you any tasks. Any plans?"
The two walked towards the office. Once inside, An Moxue was talking to someone while taking out something.
An Moxue tentatively asked, "I want to go back to Anle Village. I don't know if that's alright? Don't worry, I'll definitely keep a low profile." As she spoke, she placed the things she had taken out on the table. "Director Ma, this is a gift for you."
“Going back to Anle Village is fine too. Take this time to relax. Being constantly on edge will exhaust you. Looks like you're doing well abroad! All these things you brought back are for gifts?”
"Yes, but please rest assured, sir. Even if I give gifts, I will not reveal my own affairs."
Director Ma looked at the wine, candy, and dried meat on the table and joked, "Wouldn't this count as bribing a superior?"
An Moxue pretended to be scared and tried to snatch the things back, but Director Ma quickly shoved them under the table, since she was so close!
An Moxue looked at his possessive manner and pouted, "Director Ma, if you're so capable, give it back. I won't bribe you; I'll save it to bribe Captain Xu." An Moxue emphasized the word "bribe."
"Alright, young man, can't you take a joke? Speaking of work, the information you gave to Catfish has been handed over to the government, and he's completed his mission safely. Impressive! He completes every mission he goes on with outstanding results. The upgrade order came down a while ago. He'll hand over his old credentials in a bit, get the new ones, and get promoted half a level. Aren't you happy?"
"Greetings, Director, may I mail some things to Xiang Guorong's parents?"
"You know?" The section chief's mood was heavy as he said this.
“Yes, Catfish told me that his parents only had him and his brother, and they both sacrificed their lives.”
"That's true, but if you want to mail something, just give it to me! I'll mail it. Okay, we can't reveal your information, but his parents will know it was mailed by his comrade."
After a while, Director Ma spoke again in a low voice: "In our line of work, when we die, our tombstones are all blank."
