Tan Jie did not hide it from the guests, because the current arms business of Red Stone Collection is mainly in the hands of the Red River people and the "underground boat", and he wants to help the "Salvation Army" raise a batch of military exoskeleton devices, which must go through Mrs. Teresa or the Ark Management Committee.
——Xue Shiyue, Zhang Qubing and others were not only the honorary presidents of the Ark Management Committee, but also helped Mrs. Teresa find out the cause of her husband's death, recovered the lost arms in time, and helped the lady stabilize her power and channels.
In addition, Tan Jie also heard that they have a close relationship with the big smuggler of "United Industries", Lehman, which focuses on the arms trade.
"A batch of military exoskeleton devices?" Jiang Baimian raised his hand and pressed the delicate monk mask on his face, "This is not a simple matter. Is the relationship between Redstone and "United Industries" good enough? After so many years, you have only obtained three military exoskeleton devices, and even if you add the ones that have been gradually traded over the decades of the 'underground boat', the two hands can definitely count them clearly."
If you want to get a batch of military exoskeleton devices in a short period of time, you must follow the official trading model of "Initial City" and "United Industries".
Tan Jie has never had an expression, making it impossible to see his joys, sorrows, and sorrows:
"What they mean is that they first establish contact, complete two or three transactions, and then we don't have to worry about it."
Use the channels of Hongshiji to make initial contact, and after a certain amount of mutual trust, start official smuggling trade? Jiang Baimian thoughtfully changed the subject:
"Captain Tan, please convey that we want to meet with them, and the specific time and place can be decided by them."
——Even if the "Salvation Army" reached an intention to formally cooperate with "United Industries", the subsequent transactions would definitely have to be smuggled because they were separated by the "First City".
If you choose to bypass the "First City", you have to go to the "Orange Company" first, and then use the "Gold Coast" to reach the "United Industries".
Of course, when the old world was not destroyed, this could be done by sea, and it would only come into contact with the "Gold Coast" or "Linhai Alliance" with many small forces, but now, the major forces with ports are too late to rebuild other industries, and lack resources, so they naturally can't take care of shipbuilding.
"Are you talking about military exoskeleton devices?" Tan Jie asked calmly.
Jiang Baimian smiled under the mask:
"No.
"You just need to tell them that we came to Hongshiji this time to go to the ruins of Tieshan City."
In the current era, going specifically to the ruins of Tieshan City is a strange and confusing thing in itself.
Tan Jie didn't ask what this meant, and nodded lightly:
"I'll pass it on.
"I will ask you to tell you the specific results through the Ark Management Committee."
After the exchange ended happily, Tan Jie got up and sent Xue Shiyue and others out of the security station.
He glanced at Shang Jianyao, who rarely showed himself today, and said casually:
"You're not as active as you used to be."
Shang Jianyao, who was wearing a monkey mask, sighed:
"In order to reflect the identity of a strong person before, I used too much force, consumed too much, and I felt a little dizzy again."
He didn't say why.
"Strong identity?" Tan Jie did not inquire about his secret.
Shang Jianyao nodded:
"The awakened person at the 'Spiritual Corridor' level should be considered a strong person, right?"
Tan Jie was speechless.
If he hadn't known that this guy's brain had always been abnormal, he would definitely think that he was deliberately showing off.
Since the establishment of the Red Stone Collection, except for the fearful bishop who occasionally comes to handle affairs, there has never been an awakened person at the level of the "Spiritual Corridor"!
Tan Jie heard that Dimarco, who was "underground boat" some time ago, was suspected of being a strong man at this level, but the other party had already been killed by Xue Yuyue and the others, and he could not prove himself.
"Tsk." Jiang Baimian couldn't stand it and teased Shang Jianyao, "Are you showing off?"
The honest Shang Jianyao replied calmly:
"Don't you think this is very emotional?"
As a price, no matter what happened to Tan Jie's face, there would be no expression.
Long Yuehong muttered in his heart:
In order to show off, self-destructing strength, wouldn't it make the enemy defenseful and not be surprised?
This is simply not worth the loss!
Thinking of this, Long Yuehong subconsciously stuffed her mechanical right hand into her pocket, trying to hide it.
Unfortunately, this is too obvious.
…………
In the evening, the sun was still hanging in the sky, making the clouds burn like fire.
According to the agreement, the "old tune team" met the group of people suspected of being the "Salvation Army" in front of a high-rise building in Redstone Collection.
Because he suspected that the other party's "Spiritual Corridor" level powerhouse had the friendly ability of the owner of the swear parrot Kangna, the mountain monsters unconsciously believed them and treated them warmly, so Jiang Baimian asked Long Yuehong and Bai Chen to monitor the meeting place at the top of an abandoned building 300 meters away in a straight line, ready to "wake up" himself and Shang Jianyao with sniping and bombing at any time.
Gnawa was placed 600 meters away to prevent the actual area of influence on the opposite side from being stronger than the "old adjustment team" predicted.
They were like this, and so was the group of people suspected of being the "Salvation Army", only the previous two met Jiang Baimian and Shang Jianyao, and the rest were scattered on the roofs of buildings and in the hideouts of the ruins at different distances.
The man with a Chinese face and thick eyebrows, who looked only thirty-seven or eighteen years old, simply introduced himself:
"Xu Datong."
He also pointed to the young man next to him with eyebrows like sharp swords and noses like hanging courage:
"Li Shouyi."
Jiang Baimian nodded and reported the pseudonyms of himself and Shang Jianyao.
After the two sides completed the greeting session, Shang Jianyao, who had slept for a while in the afternoon, asked slightly excitedly:
"Are you from the 'Salvation Army'?"
Xu Datong is not unlike anyone who loves his own forces so much, but most of them are over forty years old.
In the middle and late chaotic era and more than ten years before the new calendar, human beings lived in darkness, suffering from "heartless disease", aberration, famine, war, and disorder.
At that time, the "Salvation Army", which was really doing this under the banner of "for all mankind", was an out-and-out dawn in the minds of many people, and felt that their various measures were very necessary and could solve many current problems.
Xu Datong looked at Shang Jianyao and asked thoughtfully:
"Do your parents or grandparents have anything to do with our 'Salvation Army'?"
"No." Shang Jianyao first shook his head, then took a step forward and pressed his left chest with his right hand, "For all mankind!"
Xu Datong was stunned for two seconds, and replied with the same etiquette:
"For all mankind!"
Seeing this, Li Shouyi next to him reminded his own committee members:
"He doesn't belong to our forces."
Xu Datong laughed:
"You, don't have such a serious view of the portal.
"In the chaotic era, as long as we are willing to fight to save all mankind, those who hold such ideals, whether they join the 'Salvation Army' or not, are our brothers and sisters."
"Yes, yes!" Shang Jianyao nodded frantically.
Jiang Baimian's eyes turned slightly, and he asked tentatively:
"You seem older than you look?"
"I'm in my fifties." Xu Datong, who was only thirty-seven or eighteen years old, smiled and said, "In the middle and late chaotic era, he was just a little ghost."
He didn't talk much about this aspect and started the topic:
"You are also very interested in the ruins of Tieshan City?"
Jiang Baimian smiled and said:
"We went to visit the mountain monster and heard about you."
Speaking of which, she decided to be "direct":
"For that Buddhist holy place?"
Xu Datong was not surprised:
"You too......"
"We came into contact with the five holy places of Buddhism when investigating the cause of the destruction of the old world and the origin of 'heartless disease', and suspected that there were clues hidden in them." It was not Jiang Baimian who blew himself up, but Shang Jianyao, who considered himself a member of the "Salvation Army".
Jiang Baimian had no time to stop it, so he could only let it go.
Seeing that Shang Jianyao treated people openly and sincerely, Xu Datong felt that he needed to say a little more:
"We noticed the Buddhist Holy Land because we arrested several commissioners from the Eighth Research Institute before and after, you should know about this organization, right?"
As expected of the "Salvation Army", it has arrested so many correspondents...... Jiang Baimian did not answer the rhetorical question:
"What does this have to do with the Buddhist holy land?"
"The Eighth Research Institute has been preventing us from investigating the origin of the 'heartless disease' and some secrets of the Old World, which most likely involves the truth of that catastrophe." Xu Datong further explained, "We found that in addition to destroying some secret laboratories in the old world and killing people who held the corresponding information, they also deliberately wanted to bury Buddhist holy places, and the only one they had exactly control of the location was the 'Tieshan Second Food Company'."
The Eighth Research Institute attaches so much importance to Buddhist holy places? Jiang Baimian immediately felt that there was really a problem here.
She pondered for a moment, pointed at Shang Jianyao and said:
"My companion once explored a psychological shadow that contained the 'Tieshan Second Food Company'."
