Mercenary’s War -
Chapter 348 - 348 346 Auto Show
348: Chapter 346 Auto Show 348: Chapter 346 Auto Show Gao Yang wanted to call Li Jinfang to first confirm if the cook soldier really was that formidable, and if so, have Li Pengfei and their group help find a cook soldier.
Li Jinfang’s response to Gao Yang was that, as far as he knew, aside from a few aged chefs responsible for cooking in some canteen kitchens, anyone who had been in a field cooking squad was absolutely a talent.
Then, Gao Yang immediately called Jiang Yun and the others, and the one who answered was Li Pengfei.
Li Pengfei was an easy-going guy, but what saddened Gao Yang was that after knowing the purpose of Gao Yang’s call, Jiang Yun and his people all stated that if there was a chance to bring a cook soldier abroad, they would definitely not let the Satan Mercenary Corps have him.
Anything else could be discussed, and they would be sure to show up if they needed to risk their lives, but when it came to competing with them for a cook soldier, just two words, no way.
Actually, Gao Yang also knew that asking Jiang Yun and his group to help find a cook soldier wasn’t reliable.
Those who dealt with Jiang Yun were all appointed from inside the country, and it was impossible for them to mix with the Satan Mercenary Corps.
However, being straightforwardly rejected by Jiang Yun and his people still made Gao Yang and his group feel very disappointed.
Cui Bo expressed strong dissatisfaction with their disappointment and lodged a serious protest, showing outrage at the selective oversight by a few members of the Satan Mercenary Corps, led by Gao Yang, of the fact that he used to be the head chef of a Chinese restaurant.
Cui Bo believed that he possessed skills in combat and cooking that were no less than those of Huaxia’s cook soldiers and was fully qualified to become the full-time food officer of the Satan Mercenary Corps.
Gao Yang rebutted Cui Bo’s unreasonable demand one by one.
After pointing out the fact that Cui Bo used to be the chef of an imitation Chinese restaurant that dared to claim it served Chinese food just because it had a bottle of Huaxia soy sauce, he completely quelled Cui Bo’s arrogance.
However, considering that Cui Bo was the only person in the Satan Mercenary Corps who had lit up his cooking skills, after a vote by all the attending members of the Satan Mercenaries, Cui Bo was elected as the apprentice food officer of the Satan Mercenary Corps.
If any member of the Satan Mercenaries expressed dissatisfaction with Cui Bo’s abilities or if someone with higher cooking skills joined, Cui Bo would step down automatically.
After dinner, Gao Yang and Yelena said goodbye to Frey’s family and enjoyed some time as a couple.
However, after Cui Bo disrupted their chance to take the last step forward, especially after seeing Glolov, the most Gao Yang could do was accompany Yelena to watch a movie.
They took things sweetly until around ten o’clock at night before he took Yelena back home.
Cui Bo and Bruce had already found a hotel nearby to stay in.
Gao Yang didn’t go to find the two of them.
After arranging with Yelena the time to meet the next day to attend the car show, Gao Yang went back alone to the hotel where Morgan was staying; since Morgan had already booked the room, there was no need to switch.
Having been tired all day, Gao Yang wanted to take a shower and head to bed quickly but had just returned to the hotel when he was dragged over by Morgan, who had heard him come in.
Since meeting at noon, Morgan hadn’t let go of the two antique shotguns, and now it was eleven o’clock at night, he was still playing with his shotguns with undiminished enthusiasm.
While dragging Gao Yang into his world of antique guns appreciation, Morgan imparted lots of knowledge about antique shotguns to Gao Yang.
According to Morgan, he had to take the opportunity to teach Gao Yang more about antique shotguns, lest the lucky Gao Yang should miss the irreplaceable treasures if he came across them again in the future.
In Morgan’s room, there was also a gun belonging to Gao Yang, which was the intricately carved bolt-action rifle taken from an Arab tycoon.
When Gao Yang came to the United States, he also brought it back, planning to add it to his own collection.
Gao Yang wanted to ask Morgan if he knew the origin of his rifle, but even though both functioned as shotguns, Gao Yang’s shotgun fired rifle rounds, while Morgan specialized in collecting double-barrel shotguns that fired buckshot, so Morgan couldn’t identify the history of that particular rifle.
Summoning his energy, Gao Yang listened to an excited Morgan for a long time before he could return to his room.
The next morning, Gao Yang took Morgan’s car first to pick up Yelena.
Today was the first day of the media day at the New York International Auto Show, open only to the media.
The public would have to wait another two days for access.
However, Morgan could of course enter at any time if he wished.
This time, nobody lacked tact to play the third wheel.
After picking up Yelena, Morgan’s driver drove directly to the Javits Convention Center.
Hand in hand, Gao Yang and Yelena followed behind Morgan, who was treated as a VIP, and entered the car exhibition.
Since it wasn’t the public opening day yet, there weren’t many people at the car show, and many ultra-luxurious cars are typically sold during the media days, with most luxury cars being sold before the public days even begin.
Gao Yang had no particular interest in cars, and Yelena wasn’t very interested in them either.
Together, they couldn’t really get excited about the cars and kept holding hands, whispering sweet nothings, only occasionally glancing at the cars that were supposed to be the main focus.
In fact, while the cars were touted as the stars of the show, what drew people’s attention even more were the flamboyantly dressed models.
Whether it be media day journalists or public day spectators, cameras often targeted the models.
However, today, wherever Yelena went, those dazzling models seemed to fade in comparison.
Yelena was dressed very casually, just a simple T-shirt, jeans, and sneakers, but wherever she went, she still managed to successfully attract the lens of the photographers.
Watching Gao Yang and Yelena’s constant affectionate display, Morgan finally couldn’t bear it anymore.
Had he not planned to buy a car Gao Yang took a liking to as a gift for him, Morgan would have separated from them long ago or wouldn’t have come here at all.
After a light cough, Morgan, with a helpless expression, said to Gao, “Gao, don’t forget why we’re here: cars, good cars, luxury cars.
Your girlfriend is on summer vacation now.
You have a vacation from June to September to spend together, so right now, you should focus more on the cars.”
Gao Yang shrugged and softly said to Yelena, “Darling, I’ve always thought you should get a car.
Let’s go see what kind of car you like now.”
Yelena smiled sweetly but shook her head firmly, “I don’t want one, I really don’t need it.
My dad already bought a car, and you know that one car is enough for my mom and me.
Darling, let’s go see what cars you like instead.”
Gao Yang apologetically said to Morgan, “Morgan, I’m finding it really hard to focus on the cars right now.
Actually, Morgan, you really don’t have to insist on giving me a car, um, wait a second, let’s go look at that car!”
While talking to Morgan, Gao Yang pointed at a vehicle that had six wheels.
