Chapter 1839: Chapter 990: Secretly Spying

“Boss, should we hide?” Wen Sheng looked at the convoy coming from the east and asked the sturdy man next to him.

The man looked at the convoy slowly approaching from the east, hesitated for a moment, and said, “Hmm, hide. Judging from the direction they’re headed, they must be going to Oil City.”

Saying this, he bent down and retreated towards the ruins of the building behind.

After several natural disasters, many buildings that weren’t originally strong have collapsed.

Ruins and dust are everywhere.

They hid behind a remaining wall, poked their heads out, and carefully observed the vehicles.

In Oil City.

Dong Tai on the wall saw the convoy approaching from afar, immediately picked up the telescope, and looked towards them.

When he saw the vehicle at the front, he understood who these people were.

People from Southern Paradise!

Unexpectedly, just a few days after the storm disaster ended, they came to find them impatiently.

Clearly.

They are here to exchange oil.

“Camp Commander, Camp Commander, the people from Southern Paradise are here again. Please respond.” Dong Tai picked up the walkie-talkie and called.

After waiting for a long time without a reply from Ju Tianrui, Dong Tai said to the teammate next to him, “Xiao He, the people from Southern Paradise are here. Quickly go inform the Camp Commander and let him come over.”

“Alright.”

Xiao He turned around and ran towards the bottom of the wall.

Upstairs in the meeting room, Ju Tianrui was eating inside the room.

Thud, thud, thud —

Footsteps echoed.

Ju Tianrui looked over in confusion.

The door was open, and Xiao He appeared at the door.

Upon seeing Ju Tianrui, Xiao He quickly said, “Camp Commander, the people from Southern Paradise are here. Dong Tai asked you to go over.”

Clack —

Ju Tianrui placed the food he was holding on the table and got up to walk outside without any hesitation.

As he walked, he pulled up his radiation protection clothing and then took the helmet near the door.

He patted his body and couldn’t find the walkie-talkie.

Only then did he remember that he had forgotten to take it when he came upstairs; the walkie-talkie was still in the meeting room.

“Let’s go.”

Ju Tianrui said.

In less than three minutes, Ju Tianrui reached the wall.

At that moment, less than fifty meters from the wall, a familiar vehicle was parked, just like two months ago.

It was the vehicle Chen Er and the others had ridden in previously.

Chen Er and a woman got out of the car and were talking to Dong Tai.

“Our Captain has arrived; let him talk to you.” Dong Tai said to Chen Er and the others below when he saw Ju Tianrui arrive.

“Captain Ju, long time no see, we’re meeting again.”

Below, Chen Er wore a cloak, obscuring his face, but his voice was still recognizable.

Ju Tianrui looked at them and said, “Come inside, it’s been a while.”

“Okay.” Chen Er nodded and promptly got back into the car.

The vehicle slowly drove to the main gate of the wall.

At this moment, the gate was opened.

Inside stood four or five team members in radiation protection clothing, holding weapons, looking at Chen Er and the others outside the gate.

Creak —

Chen Er and the others stopped the car; they couldn’t drive into the city due to Oil City’s rules, especially since they were here to negotiate cooperation, so they had to comply.

Step, step —

Chen Er and Ma Yingxue got out of the car and slowly walked towards the gate.

This time they came too quickly, didn’t set up a temporary tent, and since the solar radiation was too strong, they were taken to the nearest building by the gate.

Inside this room was a long table and about a dozen chairs.

“This way, please.” Dong Tai led Ma Yingxue and Chen Er inside.

Due to the strong solar radiation outside, they were allowed to enter first for a body search; meanwhile, four or five armed team members followed behind them.

Soon.

They entered the small building, less than thirty meters from the gate.

Upon entering the room, the temperature dropped several degrees in the shade.

Chen Er took off his hat, then his mask and sunglasses.

Two red marks appeared on his face, seemingly from unintended solar radiation.

Chen Er looked somewhat fatigued.

“We need to perform a body search on you, please cooperate, thank you.”

Xiao He said to the two.

“No problem, go ahead.” Chen Er nodded and said.

On the other side, Zuo Ruxue conducted a search on Ma Yingxue.

After completing the inspection, they were allowed to proceed.

In the meeting room of the central building.

Ju Tianrui used the military radio to contact Big Camphor Tree Base and informed Li Yu about Southern Paradise coming over.

Upon learning this, Li Yu instructed Ju Tianrui to negotiate with them based on the previous exchange rate.

After all, they were the ones who came, and now Oil City had resumed oil extraction operations.

After understanding Li Yu’s intentions, Ju Tianrui put down the military radio earpiece, donned his helmet, and headed towards Dong Tai and the others.

Inside the room.

Dong Tai smiled and said to them, “Please wait a moment; the Captain will be here soon; have some water first.”

“No rush, no rush, we’re all familiar now.” Chen Er said.

Since entering, Ma Yingxue had been observing everywhere but hadn’t seen Xiao Jun.

She was curious but held back from asking, as asking just after arriving seemed too conspicuous.

After drinking a couple of sips, Chen Er looked at their radiation protection clothing and praised,

“These suits you’re wearing seem very effective in blocking solar radiation. Do you have more? If possible, we can exchange with you.”
