Chapter 480 - 468: Mismatch Advantage
Having just swindled thirty-three tons of gold, Yang Yi was now about to rob the very same amount of gold. Although it was the same gold, and the crates probably hadn’t even been changed, for Yang Yi, this was a completely different mission.
Earning money twice from the same item, stealing back what he had sold—whether he was doing the stealing or doing it on behalf of someone else—it looked like a double-cross no matter how you sliced it. Yang Yi thought it through carefully and then felt that this was indeed a double-cross.
It was just a somewhat different double-cross, that’s all.
Whether it was a double-cross or simply carrying out a task given by the cleaners, if Trident was to take action, they had to be given a good reason to proceed.
Terry pondered for a moment before speaking in a low voice, "We never skimp when it comes to hiring help, but it’s a bit premature to talk terms now. We need to set the conditions based on the difficulty of the task. The current situation requires more time to track down the whereabouts of that gold, so it won’t be too late to discuss terms after we find the gold and are sure we can make a move."
It made sense, and after thinking it over, Yang Yi said, "Alright, I’ll wait for your update."
Terry nodded and then said in a deep voice, "I’ve got a lot more to handle, so I won’t disturb you any further. We can stay in touch if anything comes up."
"Wait a second."
Yang Yi hastily reached out to stop Terry and then with an embarrassed smile he said, "Look, I provided this intel, and as you’ve said, my intel has given you a significant breakthrough. So, shouldn’t you share some intel with me? I would like to know the detailed situation at Anderson International Economic Research Institute, and also any intel on Lloyd."
