Chapter 1020 How did he know?
Hua Chong's surprise was not without reason.
The drill baboon, also known as the gray baboon, is a primate belonging to the family Mandrillidae and one of the most endangered primates in Africa. There are only about a thousand drill baboon left in the wild. They are one of the most urgently protected animals in Africa. As Xiao Peng mentioned earlier, they were rescued from human consumption.
How could Hua Chong not be shocked?
Xiao Peng said helplessly, "They've been eating it for thousands of years. Why would they care about protecting it? They just care about whether it tastes good or not."
Hua Chong's tone became excited: "Boss, it's absolutely great that you brought them back! Our ship will be more lively with them!"
"Get lost!" Xiao Peng said bluntly. "The steppe eagle is part of a Russian scientific research project. I'm here to help heal it, and I'll release it once it's healed. I'm going to the Russian Embassy right now to deal with the steppe eagle's problem. The caracal is attached to me, and you might not believe me, but it loves spicy food. But can I take care of it? This guy is a tyrant! He really treats me like his shit shoveler! How am I supposed to take care of the others? How are they going to reproduce? I'm going to the Russian Embassy in Cameroon first to deal with the steppe eagle's problem, and then to the Chinese Embassy in Cameroon to ask them to help return these animals to nature or an animal sanctuary. There's a nature park here that specifically takes in animals like this, but getting involved with wild animals here can be very troublesome, so I won't be back for a few days."
Chen Cheng was stunned after hearing this: "Boss, you've been here for so long...how did you end up in Cameroon? Weren't you going to Namibia?"
What he wanted to say was, how come Xiao Peng only came to Cameroon after being separated from them for so long? They all thought Xiao Peng had finished his business in Namibia!
Xiao Peng replied, "I haven't been to Namibia yet! I finally managed to separate from you bastards, so how could I not have some fun? I drove all the way south from Morocco and had fun all the way. I've been to more than a dozen countries in West Africa! Morocco, Western Sahara, Mauritania, Senegal, Gambia, Mali, Burkina Faso, Guinea-Bissau, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Liberia, Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Togo, Benin, Niger, Nigeria..."
Xiao Peng recited a long list of place names as if he was practicing a crosstalk routine, and everyone on the other end was stunned.
Hua Chong sighed and said, "Boss, you've had a blast lately. Of course, we can't complain, you're the boss after all, but there are so many wild animals over there, why don't you pick up some and bring them back to have some fun with everyone? I'm tired of seeing all these people on the boat all day!"
When he heard this, the noise on the other end of the phone broke out again.
"You are the most annoying one!"
“That’s right!”
"We haven't even told you that you're annoying yet and you're already complaining?"
"How dare you complain!"
Xiao Peng coughed twice. "Alright, who said I didn't bring anything back? I actually have something to bring back. Hua Chong, since you're so excited, I have a gift for you!"
"Really?" Hua Chong became excited after hearing this. "Did you hear that? The boss brought me a gift! There's no share for you!"
Xiao Peng smiled secretly after hearing this.
What gift did he give to Hua Chong?
Of course it’s Cambu!
He'd already thought it through. Aren't Hua Chong and Ka Xin always fighting each other out? It's boring, you two are fighting until you're bruised and battered all day long. Why don't you both teach Kambu a lesson together?
You're all getting old now, too old to show off your skills in a fighting arena, and instead you're just fighting among yourselves every day? Well, I'll give you an apprentice, and you two can train him! Kambu looks big and strong, but he's only seventeen! It's the perfect time to train him.
Can't be a crew member forever? Becoming a champion coach wouldn't be so bad!
Is the 17-year-old Gambian the first "duck"? Damn, why is there such a big gap between races!
"Boss, what gift are you giving me? Tell me!" Hua Chong was very excited.
Xiao Peng shook his head. "This is a secret, you'll know when the time comes! Okay, once I finish what I'm doing, I'll reunite with you in the Madeira Islands. Chen Cheng, who knows about the discovery of the 'Queen's Bride Price'?"
Chen Cheng replied: "Only a few of us know about this."
Xiao Peng asked directly, "How did Chen Zetao know this? Ma Xiao, did you tell him?"
Before Ma Xiao came to Xiao Peng, the first person to introduce him was Chen Zetao. Although Xiao Peng and Chen Zetao had a close relationship, he was not on his own boat after all. When he found out on his own boat that Chen Zetao knew about it and even asked Xiao Peng to start a live broadcast, Xiao Peng was deeply resistant to it.
Ma Xiao hurriedly said, "Boss, this isn't really my fault! I'm the captain of the Calypso! Although Mr. Chen and I do keep in touch by phone, he always asks me technical questions about salvage operations. After all, the Albanian salvage company in the Mediterranean has been feeling their way around and wants to come here to learn from us. But I definitely haven't told him anything about our work!"
"Who could that be?" Xiao Peng asked.
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a while.
"Why don't you answer me?" Xiao Peng asked.
Chen Cheng said, "Boss, we really didn't know about this. Mr. Chen called us and told us about it directly. We thought he had some kind of agreement with you."
Xiao Peng was silent for a moment. "Everyone, put down your work now. Luna and Calypso, return to port. First, check all the relevant equipment on board to see if there are any surveillance devices."
"What if we can't find out?" Chen Cheng asked.
Xiao Peng said directly, "Can't find anything? Contact the shipyard! Check all ships entering the dock from head to toe! It doesn't matter how much it costs! It doesn't matter if we don't make money! It doesn't matter if nothing is found! I don't want anyone to watch us do anything in the future!"
After hearing Xiao Peng's words, the joy he had just felt disappeared. Chen Cheng said in a deep voice, "Boss, I understand what to do!"
Xiao Peng said: "You go find Walter. I left him a bank card. If this matter is really tampered by someone in China, then it is my business. I will use my personal account to resolve this matter."
"Yes!" Chen Cheng didn't waste any words.
Xiao Peng said: "It's better to solve this matter before I go back!"
"I understand!" Chen Cheng answered straightforwardly.
Xiao Peng didn't dwell on this question: "Alright! I'm almost at the Russian Embassy now. I'm going to give them the steppe eagle! We'll talk about it when we meet!"
"Okay, boss! We've been waiting for you!" Chen Cheng hung up the phone.
Xiao Peng fell into deep thought. How did Chen Zetao know what happened on their ship? If Chen Zetao had been watching him, this matter would
Kambu, who was driving, interrupted Xiao Peng's thoughts: "We've arrived at the Russian Embassy!"
Xiao Peng came back to his senses and slapped his face to sober himself up. The matter would only be concluded after investigation. What was the point of letting his imagination run wild?
"Pull the car to the door. Once we've sorted out the issues here, I'll take you out of Africa!"
