Chapter 2420 Extremely arrogant!
When Li Yalin heard this, he was stunned and could not come back to his senses for a long time.
Because of his previous career, he was very familiar with Wanlong Palace, and he even knew that Wanlong Palace had invested a huge amount of money to build his own permanent base in Syria.
For mercenary organizations, if they can have a permanent base, they will basically be far ahead of other similar mercenary organizations at once.
Mercenaries are more disgusting than gray forces like Hong Wu.
Most mercenary organizations, like rats crossing the streets in countries around the world, can only survive secretly and never dare to show their signs openly unless the organization can cooperate in depth with the government.
Although there are many mercenary organizations in the United States, except for a few organizations that cooperate with the White House and act as cannon fodder for the White House, the rest are basically hidden in the United States. Most of them are composed of American veterans. In order not to be attacked by their own police, they can only live normally in their own country in the form of individual soldiers and then go overseas to take on tasks.
For example, some mercenary organizations have more than 100 people in total. Everyone usually has their own identities and jobs to protect themselves, pretending to be law-abiding citizens, and after receiving the task, they disguise themselves as tourists and leave the country.
Although it is not illegal in China, it is an armed combatant after all, so it must be under key control at home, and it is always necessary to be sneaky.
It is also this that limits the development of most mercenary organizations.
But once a mercenary organization can openly own its own permanent base, it will be completely different at once.
When Wanlong Temple cooperated with Syria, the CIA investigated the reasons and even wanted to intervene to prevent Wanlong Temple from developing too fast in Syria and affecting the entire mercenary industry.
But Syria is determined to cooperate with Wanlong Temple, which is said to be related to Hamid, a very influential opposition in Syria. It seems that Wanlong Temple has reached some kind of agreement with the Syrian government forces and Hamid.
When the news came back, the CIA immediately made an inference that within the next two or three years, Wanlong Palace will become the most powerful mercenary organization in the world.
Now, Ye Chen suddenly said that the entire Wanlong Palace belongs to him, which really shocked Li Yalin.
Immediately, Li Yalin suddenly remembered something, and he blurted out: "Young Master Ye... I remember... there was a news that the Wanlong Palace had conquered the Ye family in Yanjing... Could it be that these are all smoke bombs you released?"
"Yes." Ye Chen said bluntly: "Before the real enemy appears, I will try my best to hide my strength and keep a low profile. If the outside world knows that Wanlong Palace has surrendered to the Ye family, this incident will inevitably cause an uproar. My identity may not be hidden by then. So instead of doing this, it is better to make the outside world think that the Ye family has been controlled by Wanlong Palace, and it is not even scary. As long as the outside world does not pay attention to the Ye family, my identity can continue to be hidden."
Li Yalin nodded slightly and said, "Since the person who killed your parents back then is likely to be part of the same organization as the person who tried to kill your grandparents a few days ago, you must be calm and try to hide your edge. The other party has not stopped after twenty years. There may be many hidden stories behind this matter. If they know that you are still alive, they may be afraid that the other party will attack you immediately."
"Yes." Ye Chen said lightly: "I don't like the situation where the enemy is dark and I am bright. Taking advantage of the fact that the enemy is dark and I am darker now, it is urgent to seize the time to find more clues for them."
Li Yalin said seriously: "Don't worry, Mr. Ye, I will go to Syria as soon as possible to meet that living person."
Ye Chen looked at the time and said, "Okay, these are two things I need you to do. You can leave here now."
As he said that, Ye Chen said again: "By the way, the An family has not left New York recently. They have been staying in the Anbang Building in Manhattan. I suggest you go and meet them first, because they care very much about you."
"Okay." Li Yalin said without hesitation: "Then I will meet them first. Since the outside world doesn't know that I was at the scene that day, then I will go to Anbang Building. Even if the other party is secretly paying attention to the situation of Anbang Building, he should not have any doubts about me. After all, my uncle and I have long friends, and our family and Anjiaye are family friends, so it is natural for me to visit Anbang Building."
Ye Chen nodded and said, "They met me that night and knew that you were taken away by someone I arranged for. But they probably wouldn't have thought you would be able to survive. After you meet, you tell them that it was a mysterious man who gave you a pill and saved you, and then asked Miss Fei to send you to see them. As for who the mysterious man is, you don't know. They will definitely connect the person who saved you with the person who saved them. Let them guess the rest."
"Okay Young Master Ye!" Li Yalin said seriously: "I've recorded it."
Ye Chen nodded, opened the door, called Fei Kexin in, and said, "Miss Fei, please arrange a helicopter and personally take Inspector Li to the Anbang Building in Manhattan. It is best to contact my uncle in advance and say that you have something to visit. When I saved them that day, you were responsible for the aftermath of the scene. They would definitely not be too alert to you."
Fei Kexin said respectfully: "Okay, Mr. Ye, I will contact the An family now and say hello to them."
...
At this moment.
Anbang Building, Manhattan.
The An family is having a meeting together to summarize and discuss recent situations.
Mr. An's symptoms of Alzheimer's disease have been deteriorating recently, so every day when he wakes up, the old lady and several children spend a long time explaining the current situation to him.
Fortunately, the old man also came over the storm. Although he had no direct memory of what happened that day, after listening to his children's explanation, he could immediately understand the current situation.
Since the accident happened, the An family has not left New York.
Although they have begun to resume handling various family affairs, for the sake of safety, the old man decided not to leave Anbang Building for the time being.
Ye Chen's uncle An Zhaonan has always wanted to go to his wife Dong Liqin's parents' home to find out. The lover he had known for nearly twenty years was actually a killer hidden in the dark, which made him difficult for him to accept, and he even wanted to follow this line to investigate in depth.
But the An family's subordinates quickly sent back the message that everyone in the Dong family was missing overnight, as if evaporated from the world.
An Kaifeng instructed his men to go and check the Dong family's asset clues. After checking for several days, he finally found some information.
So, An Kaifeng reported to his family: "After investigation, the people I sent out found that the Dong family's enterprises, equity, debts and all real estate had been fully cashed out before the incident. Some were sold and some were mortgaged. In short, they tried their best to turn all their assets into money."
An Zhaonan asked quickly: "Although they are missing, they always have to take the money away, right? We can search down the money and always find some clues."
An Kaifeng shook his head and said seriously: "It's bad that the Dong family has cashed out all assets for more than 7 billion US dollars, but they didn't take a penny away."
"What?" An Chongqiu exclaimed: "I didn't take it away?! What about this money?"
An Kaifeng said: "Before the incident, they set up a family trust, but they didn't put the money in immediately. Instead, after we had an accident, they packed all their assets into the trust, and then evaporated from the world."
As he said that, An Kaifeng said again: "It is probably after they confirmed that the mission failed."
