241: Chapter 240 The First Deal 241: Chapter 240 The First Deal Yang Yi thought Boer would be surprised, or even might panic, thus achieving his goal.
But Boer was not panicked; he didn’t even turn his head to look at the people around him, so Yang Yi quickly understood that Boer’s surprise was not because he had been followed, but because he had been noticed being followed.
Yang Yi quickly understood, so he spoke in a low voice, “It’s not about following you, but protecting you.
Sorry, I thought too much.”
Boer smiled and nodded, “Yes, your eyesight is very good.”
After finishing his words, Boer turned to the bodyguard beside him and said, “Let them leave, since Mr.
Yang could spot them, their presence is aningless.”
The bodyguard nodded his head, but before Boer’s bodyguard could act, Yang Yi hurriedly said, “Wait, Mr.
Stupak, there’s sothing you might have got wrong.”
Boer looked at him with a slightly surprised expression and said, “Oh?
What did I get wrong?”
Yang Yi spoke gravely, “I want you to understand sothing, please don’t assu I’m naïve just because I’m young.
In fact, there are not many people who can fool my eyes, so you don’t have to worry about being seen through by soone else just because I spotted them.
I think it would be better for you to keep more bodyguards around.”
After pondering for a mont, Boer then said to Yang Yi with interest, “You are very confident.”
Yang Yi was still very confident, especially since at this mont, even if he wasn’t, he had to bluff.
“Of course, I have the capital to be confident.”
Looking confident, Boer smiled again and then suddenly said, “Let ask you a question, Mr.
Yang, do you have any successful cases you can talk about?
I know this should be your business secret, but do you have any successful cases you can reveal to ?”
Yang Yi sat up straight and said with a composed face, “Of course I have successful cases, but there’s not a single one I can tell you about.
I have to keep my clients’ confidentiality, not a word can be revealed, so I’m sorry, I can’t tell you any successful cases.
Moreover…”
Spreading his hands, Yang Yi said with a look of regret, “You might be mistaken, Mr.
Stupak, I’m not interested in doing your business because I have a lot of things going on right now and I’m short-staffed, I mainly operate in Europe.”
Boer put down his knife and fork, wiped his hands with a napkin, then picked up his wine glass, and said to Yang Yi with a calm face, “In fact, I’m quite familiar with the intelligence field myself, because I also need to acquire so information from ti to ti, Mr.
Yang, I didn’t know you were a person from the underworld.”
Yang Yi laughed, “Right, my face doesn’t say I’m an information broker.”
After pondering for a mont, Boer then spoke seriously, “Mr.
Yang, if you really are into intelligence work, then are you familiar with the Cicero Family?”
“Certainly, the Cicero Family, yes, Mr.
Stupak, the Cicero Family is one of our main trading platforms, in fact, I rarely talk about my identity in person.”
Boer smiled and said, “You should understand my identity, right?”
Yang Yi hesitated a mont, then finally nodded, “Yes, Mr.
Stupak, I have a basic preliminary understanding of you.
Sorry, I don’t want to investigate you or anything, but I wanted to know your basic background.
It’s an occupational hazard, especially when a stranger invites to a poker ga with a base stake of a million dollars, my occupational hazard becos even more pronounced.”
Boer laughed and said, “I understand.”
Yang Yi nodded, “Sorry.”
Boer waved his hand to show he didn’t mind, then indeed spread his hands, breathed a sigh of relief and laughed, “I’m just looking for a poker buddy, so our encounter last night was just an accident.
We, people like us, are not welcod in casinos, so although I can still play a few hands here, I generally avoid large-stake gambling halls to avoid causing trouble for Makas, and you, are the most interesting player I have recently encountered.”
Yang Yi also laughed and replied, “You flatter .”
Boer took a deep breath and said, “You have a basic understanding of now, but do you know my current situation?”
Yang Yi shook his head and replied, “I don’t know, there’s no need to.
I only know that you’re inviting to a card ga, and knowing you’re not a swindler is enough for to participate.”
After thinking for a mont, Boer said, “What else do you know about ?”
Yang Yi gave a wry smile and said, “Banker, is that enough?”
Boer shook his head and said seriously, “Not enough.
If that’s all you know about , then I would doubt your capabilities.”
Boer had beco serious; he started behaving like soone in a position of authority, not just a poker buddy to another.
Yang Yi thought for a mont, while Xiao Ran gently kicked him under the table.
Taking a deep breath, Yang Yi laughed and said, “Alright, I hope I won’t get killed for knowing too much.
Mr.
Stupak, you are the chairman of a foundation, a son-in-law of the Rockefeller Family, and you launder money, legally, because your resources are too abundant.”
Boer nodded and then lifted his wine glass with a smile, “Now I’m starting to believe in your capabilities, Mr.
Yang.
Knowing I’m a banker is easy, and the fact you say I launder money is not that startling, because there isn’t a banker who doesn’t launder money.
But knowing I’m a son-in-law to the Rockefeller Family, hm, that’s hard because very few people know that secret.”
Boer appeared very serious.
Xiao Ran still had an indifferent look, but Yang Yi knew Xiao Ran’s eating habits well enough to notice that the hand holding her knife was sowhat abnormal.
Gently tapping Xiao Ran’s foot under the table, Yang Yi whispered, “I said, this is just a preliminary understanding, because I truly have no need to investigate you too much, that would be too impolite.”
Boer spoke quietly, “Yes, because you don’t know my current situation, you indeed haven’t investigated deeply.
If you knew the predicant I’m in now, you would not have agreed to play cards with .”
Yang Yi simply smiled but remained silent, Boer whispered, “My best friend, the finest poker buddy, and also my business partner, died last year.
He was murdered.
From his death until yesterday, I haven’t played a single ga because I’m the main target of the assassin.”
Yang Yi imdiately raised his hand and said, “Mr.
Stupak, this isn’t quite the right mont to discuss this since I’m currently unable to take any unplanned commissions, so perhaps we could discuss so other topic?”
Boer gave a faint smile and said, “I am still in danger now, I’ve just increased my security but that doesn’t an I’m safe yet.
Now I want to find the person who wants to kill .
This is a high-priced commission, and it’s not exclusive because I’ve tasked many with this mission.
So, Mr.
Yang, would you be willing to accept this unlimited ti task?”
Yang Yi pondered for a mont and asked, “How much?”
