Chapter 318 - 317 Delaying Tactics
After a little spat involving a competition and a few verbal jousts with Xiao Ran, Yang Yi soothed Kate by promising to make time to teach her the real techniques of killing. Only then was he able to continue with his pressing matters.
Yang Yi returned to his room, which was also Zhang Yong’s room since they were currently sharing one.
"Brother Yong, help me out, will you? Could you help me bring someone back from Mexico? It’s just my few guys, you know them."
Zhang Yong, lying on the bed with nothing to do, said, "They’re all grown men, why do they need picking up? Give them some money and let them come on their own. If they can’t even make it here, why would you need such useless people?"
Yang Yi said with a smile, "That’s not what I mean, they’re talents. They’ve just got out of prison and are unfamiliar with Mexico. Even if they had money, they wouldn’t know how to get around. You’re an old mercenary with connections, that’s why I asked for your help."
Zhang Yong said irritably, "I was hoping for some peace, and here you are disturbing it with your troubles. Fine, give me the money, and I’ll bring them back."
Yang Yi said with a smile, "Thanks, Brother Yong. Oh, Mike and I are going to buy some equipment, and I’m currently preparing a shopping list. Do you need any essential gear?"
Zhang Yong sat up and said, "Yes! Night-vision goggles, both thermal and low-light. And guns, get me an AK. I can only be at ease with a spare AK. Then there’s body armor and helmets. I’m no spy, so I don’t need that intelligence stuff. If you want me to charge into battle, you have to provide me with the best protection and weapons."
"What about the weapons? If the AK is your backup, what’s your primary?"
Zhang Yong made a dismissive gesture and said, "The primary one doesn’t matter much; hmm, I’ll just use whatever others use. I’m comfortable with all the mainstream firearms. Anyway, I’m just an assault man, not chasing after long-range precision. Just figure it out."
Yang Yi wrote down Zhang Yong’s requests and said, "Alright, then I’ll be going. I’ll give you the money later. Get ready and head to Mexico."
