    Lin Rui frowned slightly when he heard the name, "Are you the person Mr. K sent to pick us up?"

    "Yes, Mr. Rick. I know what you do, but it's best not to use your tricks. Being brave and ruthless won't help much, and it can even cause bad things." Liebeck smiled and said  .

    "Just the two guys just now, I can kill 20 of them by myself." Sausage said angrily.

    "I don't doubt it, then you are here for your mission. Don't forget this." Liebeck took out a cigarette and held it in his mouth while driving.

    Lin Rui looked outside the car and whispered, "Where are you taking us?"

    "Find a place to stay and wait for someone. This person can allow us to pass through the area where the militants are entrenched." Liebeck whispered.

    "Who is it?" Lin Rui frowned slightly.

    "Relax, he's just an unrelated person. His role is to help me enter South Kivu. He has no knowledge of this mission and is just doing me a small personal favor." Ribek stopped with a chuckle.  Got the car.

    Not far away, a yellow man also came over, exchanged greetings with Liebeck, hugged and shook hands with each other.

    "Li, come here and meet this Chinese friend of mine." Liebeck patted Lin Rui on the shoulder.

    "Chinese? Hello, hello." That person actually spoke Chinese with a Fujian accent.

    "Are you Chinese too?" Lin Rui frowned slightly.

    Liebeck explained, "Li is also Chinese. He has been here for many years. He is mainly engaged in the ore business and is familiar with all aspects. He can help us pass the checkpoint over there."

    "You're welcome, it's just a small business." The Chinese man named Li said.

    Through conversation, I learned that the Chinese named Li came to Africa to do business.  Because of business, I often travel around.  In the surrounding area, I have good relations with all the military and police.

    Because of his generosity, the soldiers at various police stations benefited from him.  So he is very popular in this area.  Through Li's relationship, Lin Rui and others can easily pass through some areas without being challenged.

    Most of the roads here are dirt roads, and when cars drive by, the dust is eye-catching.  Nearly 100 kilometers of this road are on dirt roads, and large trucks are constantly coming and going like water.

    When their off-road vehicle bumped forward, the red and yellow dust raised by the vehicle in front was like poisonous fog, and the visibility on the road was less than one meter.  As the car passed through the dust and fog, we saw the clear blue sky and white clouds, which were very dazzling in comparison.  On both sides of the road, there are wild chrysanthemums as tall as a person. The yellow flowers are particularly beautiful against the green leaves.

    "There is a famous hand mine there." Li explained.

    The so-called hand mining, as the name suggests, involves miners manually collecting and excavating ore from the surface.  When Huayou Cobalt first arrived here 10 years ago, it acquired a large amount of high-grade products, with prices above 25% everywhere.

    "Cobalt mines with a grade lower than 10% are not valued at all. Today, those with a grade of less than 5% are now treasures, and some with a grade lower than 2% have to be collected, because there are not many good things left." Li lamented.  He said, ¡°Ten years ago, the copper mines dug by the locals could be directly smelted in furnaces to smelt copper, and the basic premise of fire smelting was that it contained more than 30% copper.

    At that time, there were nearly 10 Chinese and foreign companies smelting copper in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.  Ten years later, almost all of these companies closed down because the copper grade quickly dropped below 5%.  "

    "So your ore business is doing well?" Liebeck asked.

    "I have stopped doing it recently. I am now in the tailings pond business. The tailings pond is the waste slag pond after copper smelting. The copper metal content is still more than 2%. Recently, I am acquiring this for re-smelting.

    In China, the metal content of copper mines averages less than 1%, and the proportion of large-scale copper mines with grades greater than 1% accounts for less than 15%.  Copper mines with a grade of 0.5% are regarded as treasures by the Chinese.  "Li explained.

    Liebeck turned to Lin Rui and explained, "Because Li is in the ore business. So his vehicles often travel around, and he is very happy in several surrounding provinces. The soldiers will not embarrass him because they often accept Li's benefits."

    Li smiled and said, "If you can't help it, just come out to make a living. But this is not bragging. If you encounter any military police nearby looking for trouble, just report my name directly. Most people will buy it.

    By the way, what kind of business do these people do?  "

    "Can you tell?" Liebeck asked.

    "If I can't even see this, I won't hang out here. These friends of yours can tell at a glance that they are not good friends.

    The mercenaries, or who is the bodyguard.  If you say they have no blood on their hands, even if you beat me to death,?.  "Li smiled and said. "Relax, buddy, I don't meddle in other people's business.  If it weren't for Liebek's face this time, I would usually stay as far away from people like you as possible.  "

    "It's a wise choice to avoid getting into trouble." Lin Rui nodded.

    "After passing the front section, we are almost at the checkpoint. Don't say anything when you get there. I will get off the car to negotiate. I will send you there and I won't have anything to do." Li said with a smile.

    "Thank you." Lin Rui whispered.

    "You're welcome, it's not easy to make a living out there. When you go out, you can rely on friends, and it's a big help if you can help." Li looked at him and said with a smile.

    This person named Li is indeed very popular in the local area.  With him in charge of the negotiations, Lin Rui and others passed through this area easily.

    After helping them pass the checkpoint, Li got out of the car and left.

    Liebeck patted Lin Rui on the shoulder, "You see, I have said before that sometimes a lot of things can be accomplished with a little bribe."

    "I don't understand why strangers are not allowed to pass through the checkpoint here?" Lin Rui frowned.

    ¡°The reason is actually very simple. From here, the control of the government forces is not that strong. There are local armed forces everywhere near the border, and there are various factions.

    The situation here is very complex and armed conflicts often occur.  Government forces cordoned off these areas in an effort to control the situation.  In order to prevent foreigners from getting into trouble and causing international impact.  ¡± Lieback replied.

    "Since we can get through with a little money, why do we still have to go through Li's relationship?" Scarface asked a little strangely.

    "Because if we spend money to settle things, it will be easy to expose us. Who knows if the soldiers these people are checking have any insiders in the armed organization?

    ¡°If they know that we are friends of Li¡¯s, they will naturally regard us as businessmen.  Not too fussy.  For this mission, confidentiality is the top priority, and we must avoid unexpected situations.  Liebek whispered.

    "That's right." Lin Rui nodded and said, "The secret society's eyes and ears may be everywhere. There is no harm in being careful."
