NOVEL NEXT Chapter 10
Chapter 10: Chi Yun Dream – I Will Not Admit It! Absolutely Not!
Looking at the pile of weapons, Zhao Renzhou contemplated who he should target. He was not the passive type. In this northern region of Myanmar, you needed a valid reason for everything.
Now that someone had guns, staying hidden here wouldn’t be convincing anymore.
As mentioned before, the Golden Triangle was currently a chaotic battleground with various factions like Kunsha, Luoxinghan, Nuo Kang, Nai Mi, and Mindeng all vying for dominance.
Mindeng was the one in control of Kesin State, on the same side as Zhao Renzhou. Yes, it was the same Mindeng who had met his end at the hands of Cold Front in “Wolf Warrior.”
At this point in time, among these players in the Golden Triangle, Mindeng was one of the newcomers who had risen in recent years.
His sphere of influence wasn’t as strong as the veterans’. Out of the eighteen towns in Kesin State, he had captured eleven.
The remaining seven towns were situated near the border between Dragon Nation and India, and their crop production was not as abundant as in other areas.
In addition to the ongoing conflicts between government forces and local armed groups, the major powers found it more trouble than it was worth to occupy the region.
Thus, it fell into the hands of scattered factions. Chen Jinlong and Zhao Renzhou were part of one such faction.
Chen Jinlong’s initial idea was to rely on the Tazhai Group for advanced refining technology through a mutually beneficial arrangement. With that, they aimed to surpass the other factions in the Golden Triangle and eventually dominate Kesin State.
Their plan wasn’t too far-fetched, considering their faction was already quite formidable.
However, the equipment they used included some relics from decades ago, like the Zhejiang Type 77 rifles from the days of the Anti-Japanese War. This gave an idea of the quality of arms used by the nearby factions.
Given that Mindeng had risen to power only in recent years and had the shallowest roots among the various factions, Chen Jinlong’s ambition wasn’t entirely surprising.
Now, with Zhao Renzhou taking over, the situation had changed.
As the headlights of the cars approached, Zhao Bao, who had been waiting outside, received the message and immediately led the convoy in the direction Zhao Renzhou had come from.
In less than two minutes, they spotted the abandoned building with an open door. Zhao Bao stopped the convoy and led his men towards it, shining flashlights ahead.
As they entered the building, they were immediately awestruck. The flashlight beams illuminated the brand new AKM automatic rifles, gleaming black, and the golden bullets that exuded a tempting sheen.
And there were those RPG-7 rocket launchers with their ten barrels and the entire crate of shells. It left all of Zhao Renzhou’s men in sheer amazement.
Even the reserved and quiet Zhao Bao couldn’t help but swallow hard when he entered the room. He approached the crate of AKM automatic rifles and couldn’t contain his excitement as he asked, “Big Brother, are all these ours?”
His eyes sparkled as he looked at Zhao Renzhou. With these weapons at their disposal, they would truly become kings of the land.
No longer would they need to be cautious when dealing with government forces and local militias.
Zhao Renzhou nodded with a smile and said,
“That’s right. Tell the brothers to load up the vehicles. We’ll pick a faction later and sharpen our skills. Let’s gather some more gold. This stuff will only increase. Kesin State will be ours sooner or later.”
While Zhao Renzhou spoke with ease, Zhao Bao was excited and ready to act. “Yes, Big Brother!” he exclaimed. “People, get these weapons out of here!”
Zhao Bao instructed his men to carry the weapons and equipment, while he personally took a brand new AKM and lovingly caressed it.
As for his old rifle, it was no longer worth keeping in his eyes – it was trash! He discarded it without a second thought.
On the way back, everyone had joyful expressions on their faces.
The convoy sped along the road. Sitting in the middle of a Jeep, Zhao Renzhou turned to Zhao Bao and asked, “Do you know which factions the Tazhai Group has cooperation with, aside from us?”
Factions like Mindeng, which had already established their dominance, had stable sources of supplies and were unlikely to collaborate with Tazhai.
They might even be rivals. Only the scattered factions in the seven border towns, lacking in technology and operating inefficiently but excelling in raw material output, would be ideal partners for Tazhai.
Chen Jinlong was also unaware of what promises he had made to Tazhai. It was quite bizarre that Tazhai had agreed to provide refining technology.
Zhao Bao furrowed his brow and responded, “I’m not entirely sure, but we do know that neighboring towns like Naiga and Yebi have some dealings with Tazhai.”
Zhao Bao then remembered something and added, “By the way, Chi Yun Dream should know about this.”
As Zhao Renzhou listened, he nodded in agreement. However, when Zhao Bao mentioned Chi Yun Dream, Zhao Renzhou froze for a moment.
“Darn it… did I forget about that woman again?” he muttered to himself, checking the time. It was already 10:30. He had left her around 8:00.
He wondered if leaving a bowl of porridge would be enough to keep her from starving to death. In a certain villa, Chi Yun Dream’s empty porridge bowl stared back at her, and she could only shake her head in disbelief.
She absolutely refused to admit it…
Here is the translation of the text you provided:
“She even licked the bowl several times.
Absolutely! Not! Going to!
Zhao Renzhou!
I * Ahhhhhhhhhhh!
Inside the jeep.
Zhao Renzhou smacked his lips and said:
“We’ll go to the villa later.”
Zhao Bao furrowed his eyebrows:
“Big brother….”
He hesitated to speak…
He didn’t know how to broach the subject.
Zhao Renzhou said:
“What’s wrong?”
Zhao Bao gritted his teeth and said:
“Big brother…
You need to control yourself…
It’s not too late to ask tomorrow…”
Zhao Renzhou supported his forehead:
“Get lost?!”
“Do you think my head is full of that stuff?!”
“I even forgot about that woman…”
“She’s still locked up now…”
“Don’t let her starve to death…”
