Chapter 25 Buyers

Democratic Germany, Dresden, opposite the Cathedral of Our Lady, in a chain pharmacy called Saxon. A truck delivering goods slowly stopped in front of the warehouse behind the pharmacy. The owner of the pharmacy, William Peake, directed the workers to the hatch of the truck and began to move the goods. Although the Democratic Republic of Germany is in the socialist camp, it allows the existence of private industry and commerce, so the per capita GDP here has reached 6,000 US dollars, which is the highest among all socialist camps. Therefore, the owner of the pharmacy, Wilhelm Pick, can own the largest chain of pharmacies in Saxony. While William Peake was busy handling the storage of medicines, Hans Honecker hurried over from the store and whispered something in William Peake's ear. William Pique explained a few words to the workers before turning around and leaving with Hans Honeker.

William Pique and Hans Honecker quickly came to William Pique's office, Hans Honecker consciously waited at the door, and William Pique walked into the office alone. Picking up the handset of the phone, he walked to the window of the office and closed the blinds. Only through the gap to check the situation outside the window.

"Saxon Pharmacy, may I ask who are you?" William Peake tried vigilantly.

The other side of the receiver was silent for a moment, and said: "You don't need to know who I am, I just want to make a deal with you. A deal like Mr. Popov made with you."

Hearing Popov's name, William Pique hung up in alarm. There has been no news of Popov since last week, and this hidden trade route has been interrupted since then. William Peake thought it was the call from Popov, who had been missing for a long time. But the voice on the other end of the phone was a stranger. If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, William Pique chose to hang up the other party's phone.

On the other side of the receiver, Seryozha was about to bargain with the other party, but was hung up, feeling very regretful. The other party was still too cautious and didn't give strangers a chance at all, but Seryozha could only find this one buyer, and rejected him within three sentences. Seryozha walked out of the phone booth sadly, sat on the chair next to him, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a deep breath.

The contact information of the other party was obtained by Seryozha from Popov's address book. There are only two information on it: a phone number and "buyer". Seryozha did not know how to address him at all. Not to mention how to gain the trust of the other party, a cigarette will be exhausted soon. Seryozha put out the cigarette butt and threw it into the trash can. He suddenly remembered something and turned back to the phone booth. He picked up the receiver and called the other party again.

This time William Pique was standing by the phone, but he didn't pick up the receiver until the phone rang a lot.

"I have several boxes of durian candies in my hand. I don't know if you are interested?" Seryosha blew up the cowhide over the phone, and the batch of goods had been blown up by him long ago.

Hearing the durian candy, William Pick was stunned for a moment, and he was no longer ready to hang up the phone. He eased his tone and said, "Stop talking nonsense, where is that old Jewish man? I only talk to him about business? Am I right?" People I know aren't interested."

Although the other party said so, Xie Liaosha heard the other party's thoughts, and the hailuoyin in the warehouse was the reason for the other party to talk patiently.

"I don't want to mention the durian candy for the time being. That old Jewish man is probably going to pay his respects to Comrade Lenin now, so if you still want to deal with the Soviets, I'm the only one left." Seryozha was afraid that the phone would be tapped, so he tried his best to conceal Said.

"What do you want to sell?" William Pique decided to give the opponent a chance, because there was indeed a problem with Popov. The business has to continue, especially the batch of hailuoyin, which the Italians have been pressing for a long time. Even if the other party is the police or the KGB, as long as you don't show up during the transaction, the one who gets caught is just a dead ghost.

The scapegoat in William Peake's hands is like toilet paper, throw it away after use, and have as much as you want.

"It's just some special products of the Soviet Union, caviar or something." You can get a preferential price for the first transaction.

Hearing just these things, William Pique was relieved and a little disappointed. Don't worry, the smuggling of these things should not be done by the police or the KGB, because the crime is too minor, and the police or the KGB don't pay much attention to it. Even in the Soviet Union, they don't care much, let alone overseas investigations. However, if the other party has a channel to get things over, it seems that they have the ability. To my disappointment, the hailuoyi I am most interested in has not yet disappeared.

"Okay boy, I will give you a chance, but you have to follow the rules, otherwise there will be no next time." William Pique warned the other party.

"Don't worry, we will be good partners. We are cooperating for the first time. May I ask how you solved the problem of payment?" Sergey Sha said to the other party.

"Give me an account in Switzerland or Luxembourg, and the money will be converted into U.S. dollars and stored in it. Or find a reliable underground bank, you are free. Don't worry, I still have credibility. But you and I can't tell." William - Pique warned.

"Okay, that's it, I wish us a happy cooperation." Sergey Sha said.

"Happy cooperation." The other party said indifferently. Hang up the phone.

Hearing the busy tone from the receiver, Seriosha froze for a moment, hung up the phone slowly, left the phone booth, turned around and left. Everything that can be done has been done, success or failure depends on luck.

After William Peak hung up the phone, he took out a satellite phone from the drawer. Press the power switch. The biggest advantage of this kind of phone is that it is safe and not afraid of being monitored. This is William Peak's special service for high-end customers. Seryozha's petty business has no use for such things.

After waiting for a while, the other party's phone got through. William Peake lowered his voice and said in a low voice: "Boss, something happened to Popov. He must have been killed. The durian candy is now in the hands of a young man. Things may be a little troublesome."

The other party was silent for a while, as if thinking about something? William Pique waited anxiously. Something went wrong with the client. William Pique felt very ashamed. Although the other party was the Italian Mafia, William Pique was not easy to mess with. William Pique just didn't want to turn against the client. That's all, any conflict is unnecessary, making money is the first priority.

"Leave this matter to me first. I will find a solution, my friend!" replied the other party.

Hearing what the other party said, William Pique was relieved. The reason why William Pique has been able to operate in this business for many years is that he can stand tall. Relying on reputation, William Pique even values ​​reputation more than those regular businessmen.

"Can I ask, how do you plan to solve it?" William Peek regretted it after finishing speaking, and he shouldn't have asked about it.

"I will send my subordinates to meet him." The other party's voice came from the receiver.
