Chapter 425: Chapter 406: New Deal

There are still deals to be made, but Gao Yi no longer plans to be personally involved.

Primarily because Green has a very stylish way of not splitting the money, so Gao Yi simply decides not to play games with Green.

"This is a copy of the video, you can take it and trade with the UK, ask for any amount of money you want, I won’t take a share."

Gao Yi feels he is being very generous, the most important thing is that he gave Green the freedom, which should satisfy Green.

However, Green still looks emotionless, and says indifferently to Gao Yi, "I remember you chose Paris for the trading location, and you were supposed to be involved in the trade."

"That was before, on the plane I changed my mind. You’re not taking a share, it made me feel embarrassed, doesn’t make sense others get money but not you."

Green shakes his head, whispers, "I’ve never been concerned about money."

"I know, that’s why I let you handle it, even if you give the information to the British for free, I wouldn’t mind."

Gao Yi thinks he has done all he could, but he realizes that his good intentions have not won Green’s approval.

Green remains silent for a long time, then suddenly says, "Do you look down on Military Intelligence Sixth Department?"

"Ah?"

Gao Yi is stunned for a moment, then he says confusedly, "Why would you say that? I definitely did not mean that."

"You do. Ever since you insulted Military Intelligence Sixth Department, you must have started looking down on them, looking down on the UK!"

With Green’s words reaching this point, what else could Gao Yi say?

Spreading his hands, Gao Yi says helplessly, "Really, I don’t."

Being seen through is one thing, admitting it aloud is another.

Green’s expression becomes even more serious. He slightly bows his head and says, "Although the UK’s position isn’t as great as it once was, its national power has greatly declined, and Military Intelligence Sixth Department’s position is being replaced by Military Intelligence Fifth Department, with a severe reduction in funds and manpower shortage, Military Intelligence Sixth Department is still not to be scorned by you!"

Gao Yi can only spread his hands.

"You trading personally with the UK, regardless of how much money you fetch, is your own accomplishment. Your previous hostility with Military Intelligence Sixth Department was due to Iron Fist George, but Iron Fist George is already dead, so the root of the problem is solved. This trading opportunity allows you to potentially mend relationships with the UK and Military Intelligence Sixth Department, and possibly cooperate in the future."

Gao Yi suddenly finds himself in great demand.

He thought the relationship with the British was irrevocably hostile, that meetings would only end in fights and hostility, but unexpectedly, Green still harbored thoughts of establishing connections between him and Military Intelligence Sixth Department.

Does that mean Green expects Gao Yi and Military Intelligence Sixth Department to turn from foes to friends?

That is possible, after all, Green is from Military Intelligence Sixth Department.

"Uh, do you think, Military Intelligence Sixth Department will possibly turn from enemy to friend with me? After all, last time in London it got pretty ugly."

"There are no permanent enemies in this world, only permanent interests."

Green quotes a classic saying, then adds confidently, "It’s precisely because you caused pain to Military Intelligence Sixth Department that they will take you seriously and respect you, the British are very pragmatic, especially Military Intelligence Sixth Department, we never give up substance for face."

"Okay, I’ll do the trade myself as you suggest."

"Good, I’ll make the contact, I’ll arrange it."

After speaking, Green makes a gesture to invite Gao Yi to leave.

Gao Yi is somewhat cautious of Green, which is why when contacting Northeastern University, he sometimes ditches Green, but only sometimes, not every time.

But Green is different, whenever Green deals with Military Intelligence Sixth Department, he always avoids Gao Yi.

However, that’s not a big deal, Gao Yi doesn’t want to meddle too much anyway.

When Gao Yi leaves, Green takes out his phone and sends a message.

"Hammer God agrees to the trade."

"Our personnel are in place, the trade can proceed at any time."

"Change the person."

"Four people in total for the trade, as you requested, we used our best female agent, she is beautiful, young..."

"Change to someone mature, gentle, intellectual, age can be flexible, um, of course must be beautiful."

"We have such... already among the trade personnel, I think Jenny fits this description, she was Annie’s instructor."

Green exhales softly and says, "Let them handle the trade together, if possible, try to establish a long-term connection with Hammer God, I understand Hammer God quite well, if you want Military Intelligence Sixth Department to regain past glory, he can bring great opportunities, even hope."

"Is he that... important?"

"You doubt my judgment?"

"If I doubted your judgment, I wouldn’t have sent four people as options for a single trade!"

"If personnel are already in place, then let’s proceed with the trade quickly, I’m afraid if it’s delayed any longer, Hammer God might become an external staff for the French, let’s meet for a trade at Sun King Restaurant today at noon, I’ll be there too, any other questions?"

"Yes."

"What is the issue?"

"Funds are insufficient, we’ve only secured a maximum budget of forty-two million Euros, it shouldn’t exceed forty-two million, the Intelligence Committee only gave us forty-two million, but for the same mission, Military Intelligence Fifth Department secured a full budget of one hundred million dollars, though so far, Military Intelligence Fifth Department hasn’t contacted Hammer God."

Green was furious, typing rapidly with both hands: "Bastards! Those bastards! Damned bastards! Assigning the same task to two agencies with different budgets, the Intelligence Committee bastards are the biggest enemy of Military Intelligence Sixth Department; they want to bring down the Military Intelligence Sixth Department!"

"There’s no choice, Iron Fist George’s defection has once again dealt us a lethal blow."

Although it was a text message, between the lines, Green could almost hear the helpless sigh of his old colleague.

Green took a deep breath and continued typing: "Transaction at noon, have the funds ready, I will ensure that the transaction goes smoothly, but the person you choose must be reliable! There is no necessary progress or purpose that must be achieved."

"Is Hammer God lecherous?"

"No, he just doesn’t know how to refuse."

"Understood."

Green thought for a moment, then added another line.

"Given the complexity of his current identity, he can’t even control himself anymore, so our aim should only be to establish a sufficiently friendly relationship with him, not trying to control him. No blackmail, no threats, just cooperative friendship is enough. Remember this point, do not overstep, overstepping means failure."

"Understood."

Green put away his phone and did not wait any longer; he left his room directly and went to knock on Gao Yi’s door, and upon seeing him, immediately said, "Noon at twelve, transaction at Sun King Restaurant. Come with me, don’t bring anyone else; I can ensure the party involved in the transaction is safe."

Gao Yi immediately responded, "Okay, twelve o’clock... Should we head out now?"

"Yes."

"Then let’s not wait any longer, let’s go."

Gao Yi felt somewhat ashamed facing Lucy, and now he was quite happy to have something to go out for.

However, he still needed to inform Marina before leaving.

Yes, thinking about it, it’s indeed a bit troublesome; dealing with the British on French soil, and what’s being sold is French secrets, although these technological secrets have already spread all over the world, it still feels somewhat odd in the heart.

So it cannot be said to be dealing with the British.

But Marina’s level of concern for Gao Yi is now higher than ever, might she arrange some secret protection or something?

Really troublesome, truly troublesome.

It’s still better to leave Paris quickly, get the transaction done and go.

Gao Yi called Marina, and once she answered, he softly said, "I need to go out for a bit, meet someone; there won’t be any problems, don’t worry."

"I’m not worried, I guarantee you won’t have any problems. Go and handle your affairs, love you, I’m in a meeting, we’ll talk when I have time."

Marina hung up the phone, and Gao Yi stood there stunned for a while, suddenly shivering.

Is the love of a middle-aged woman this intense? It’s a bit hard to handle.

"Alright, let’s leave."

Green didn’t say much else; he just followed Gao Yi and got into the Directorate-General for External Security’s car, heading straight for Sun King Restaurant.

Trading with the British under French protection is very French.

Green had already made reservations. When entering the restaurant, the French did not follow.

"I know you like to discuss matters in restaurants, so I arranged a dinner."

Green knew that Gao Yi liked restaurants, but that was normal; anyone who knew Gao Yi a little knew he liked to meet in restaurants.

Of course, the restaurant environment gives a buff to the Restaurant War God.

The table was for four, a pretty good spot, but just as Gao Yi and Green had been led by the waiter to their seats and settled down, not even a minute had passed when two women, neither dressed too flamboyantly but still stunning, slowly approached.

The clothes were quite normal, but looked very nice, the younger one seemed just over twenty, wearing light makeup, standing at about 1.75 meters tall, belonging to that type of tall, beautiful and cheerful sunny beauty.

The slightly older one looked in her thirties, elegant, also wearing a pair of glasses.

Why are two women coming for the transaction?

Gao Yi couldn’t help but glance at Green, then still got up with Green, both of them together helping the newly arrived ladies with their chairs.

Once everyone was seated, the older woman smiled gently at Gao Yi and said, "Hello, nice to meet you; my name is Jenny."

The parties shook hands.

The younger woman looked at Gao Yi with interest, then casually extended her hand to shake hands with Gao Yi, her casualness stemming from her constant observing of Gao Yi.

"You’re younger and more handsome than I imagined. I always thought the person who made the entire Military Intelligence Sixth Department helpless would be a very strong man."

Jenny looked displeased at Annie, and Annie immediately stuck out her tongue, her demeanor was not pretense, not a performance, but sincere, hence, Annie was a youthfully honest and straightforward sunny girl.

Gao Yi looked at Green.

Green remained expressionless.

Well, Gao Yi started to miss the feeling of drinking with Huang Haisheng and the others.

Gao Yi wasn’t a fool, the personnel arrangement for this transaction was clearly intentional, and it didn’t feel good.
