"If you want to go, after leaving here the day after tomorrow, I’ll take you to have a look." Since it’s their honeymoon, the old man and Kang Zhong probably won’t mind if she extends their ti a bit. They should have a blast—it’s much better than being a workaholic like in her previous life.
"Will it affect your work?" Qin Jiran knew how busy Su Yanyi was. Before they ca here, even the look in Kang Zhong’s eyes when he saw them off was sowhat sorrowful.
"It’s fine, Kang Zhong is there."
"...All right then, let’s go take a look." Hang in there, Kang Zhong!
As the two of them were talking, the first batch of weapons had already been auctioned off, with the final price being over eighteen million US dollars. However, this was really just an appetizer.
In the subsequent auction, firearms and ammunition seed trivial compared to what was coming up. On offer weren’t just small arms but even tanks, fighter jets, artillery, and so on. So were decommissioned by certain countries, while others were the latest models freshly developed. By the end of the auction, even a semi-scrapped aircraft carrier was put up for sale, giving soone like Qin Jiran, who was attending for the first ti, a real eye-opener. Indeed, the world was full of wonders.
"They even put an aircraft carrier up for auction, is that really okay?" Qin Jiran asked, sowhat unsure.
"Who do you think is selling these things?" Su Yanyi glanced at Qin Jiran with a aningful look and asked.
After thinking for a mont, comprehension flashed in Qin Jiran’s eyes, and he instantly understood what Su Yanyi ant. He said, "You an the countries themselves?"
"Of course. You should know that the biggest arms smugglers in the world are backed by countries behind the scenes. Otherwise, how could they get their hands on so many weapons and pieces of equipnt?" This fact was almost an unspoken secret among the various bigwigs.
"That’s true." Qin Jiran now understood this principle; any force that wanted to grow big needed the support of a country!
Thinking of this, Qin Jiran’s expression grew solemn, and suddenly he thought of a question, asking, "So, the Warrens family too?"
"Heh, what’s behind them is the Ruling party—or, more accurately, it is the Warrens family that’s behind the Ruling party. Over the years, with the support of the Warrens family, there have been no fewer than a dozen US presidents who’ve taken office," Su Yanyi revealed the secrets of the underworld to Qin Jiran without any reservation, things she had known since she was very young.
"Then..." Qin Jiran reflexively started to ask a question but stopped after just one word, seemingly feeling it might not be appropriate to ask.
Su Yanyi had been paying close attention to Qin Jiran’s expression. The matters of the Dark World were bound to be shocking to soone like Qin Jiran. She was always ready to explain and guide him at the right ti. Seeing his expression now, she seed to understand what Qin Jiran wanted to ask.
"You want to ask about the Su family, don’t you?" Su Yanyi asked, voicing the question for him.
"Is it okay to talk about it? I just suddenly thought of it," said Qin Jiran. He was sowhat curious but did not feel the need to know, understanding that such matters were highly secretive.
This ti, Su Yanyi did not speak. Instead, she made a "nine" gesture with her hand towards Qin Jiran, who then understood. Indeed, each country’s situation and history had their similarities.
The auction drew to a close, and while so items failed to sell, the majority were snapped up by the guests. Most could say their attendance was worthwhile. Yet, Su Yanyi and her group hadn’t bought anything. The Su family was, after all, the biggest seller in the underworld, and among the auctioned items were parts originally from the Su family. However, all of that was arranged by her elder brother and father, and Su Yanyi had never inquired about it.
