Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

Chapter 1259: robber

"Pete, I'm sorry, I'm afraid the Bison can't take you to the sea where the Domamas Islands are."

"What's wrong?" Peter asked puzzledly, and Prague looked at Rick in amazement.

"The Bison has suffered a mechanical failure. The maintenance staff has carried out repairs, but several of them have been severely damaged. Now they can only wait for the tugboat to come and cannot move forward."

"Then what do we do? I paid for it, and my father gave you 20 million dollars a year. Are you just irresponsible?" Pete was a rich man, and his tone and attitude were quite arrogant.

There is no respect for Rick at all. For him, not only Rick, but even the entire fleet and the entire expedition are owned by his family, and these expedition members, including Rick, are employees of his family.

"US $ 20 million? Do you know that to maintain the expedition and fleet, at least US $ 50 million per year? US $ 20 million? Do you think US $ 20 million can solve all problems?" Rick said at least Not accustomed to Pete: "And do you know how much wealth I bring to your father every year? Lad, your attitude is best to be respectful. Your father is not a philanthropist and I am not your father. We are partners."

Peter's face suddenly became extremely ugly, especially in front of his girlfriend.

"That's what you said. When I went back, I told my father to stop working with you."

There was a gleam of light in Rick's eyes, but his eyes only flashed, and then he hid.

Pete in front of him was still too tender.

Or maybe his father used to protect him so much that he didn't understand how much trouble his words and actions would cause him.

"Well, take them to the Seagull," Rick said indifferently, glancing at the crew under his eyes.

"Master Pete, please."

"You wait for me. I'll use a satellite phone to talk to my father." Pete said reluctantly.

Then Peter and Prague took a kayak to the Seagull.

"Mr. Rick, what are we going to do?"

"That troublesome little guy." Rick looked at the Seagull not far away: "Notify the people on the Seagull that if he really wants a satellite phone, kill him, his father's money, and our funds will be returned There is a big gap, and the kid must not be destroyed. "

Pete's father knew what Rick's expedition was about, but Pete didn't know.

Peter really thought that Rick's expedition was just an ordinary expedition.

Pete's father was a pure businessman, and he partnered with Rick because Rick's expedition could benefit him.

He is not a philanthropist, but a greedy capitalist.

Rick said he was an explorer, but rather a robber.

His men are a group of bandits.

Although they also do some exploration and archeology.

But in fact, their main source of income was not expedition archeology, but robbing expeditions and archeological teams.

Of course, they are not ordinary robbers, because once they start, they often try to kill them.

Will never leave a living mouth.

It is by means of cruelty that Rick can always cover up so well. So far, no one in the archeological circle of exploration knows his true identity. He can also rely on the identity of the explorer to obtain some in the circle. information.

For example, where did a certain team go and what good things are there?

Once Rick's team is watching, he will deliberately arrange it.

Every time Rick grabs something, he sells it to Pete's father at a lower price.

Rick knew the true value of those things, but he was only a robber, not a businessman.

He couldn't sell things for the highest price, and Pete's father could.

Compared with his father's insidiousness, Pete seemed much stupid.

Rick didn't want to kill Pete if he could.

After all, his father was not good at it, and Rick was unwilling to be his enemy.

But if Pete had to find his own way, Rick would not be soft-hearted.

Their business is the kind that does not open for half a year, and opens for half a year.

So most of the time, they are in a state of lack of money.

And even if he has the money, he will not spend the money on the maintenance team.

Pete's father is the biggest funder of his team.

Peter's idea is not wrong.

In terms of funding, his father is indeed the big boss of the expedition.

But Rick wouldn't be a little brother honestly.

Pete just got on the Seagull, and started to do well again.

"What a broken ship," Pete said dissatisfied, "And why are the cabins of Prague and me so small?"

The Seagull has a displacement of only 4,000 tons, and the natural conditions are not as good as the Bison with a displacement of 9,000 tons.

"Pitt, forget it, we are not traveling." Prague persuaded that she was quite speechless about Pete's temper, especially her previous attitude towards Rick, even she felt very inappropriate. .

"You have a face to blame, and you blame you. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have to be tortured like this." Pete blame Prague now.

Prague's expression froze, and he looked at Pete with a blue face.

"I want to go back to Los Angeles and ask your captain to come over. I really don't understand what I thought before, but I would run to sea to suffer."

Prague gritted his teeth and looked at Pete. At the beginning, he said that there was an expedition, and it was him who could follow him to relax.

It's also him who blame himself now, Prague seems to know Pete for the first time.

Prague is also too young. She thought that when Pete pursued her, she was so enthusiastic and so much of eachother, she thought that Pete really liked herself.

But he did not expect that just after two days of sea breeze, Pete showed such a face.

"We won't return," said the crew member in a cold tone.

Rick had informed them before Pete and Prague came to Seagull.

If Pete wants to go home or have a satellite phone, then just kill them all and throw them into the sea.

Now that his face has been torn, the crew no longer needs to pretend.

"What kind of attitude do you dare to speak to me like this? Do you know who my father is? Believe me or not I let you die without knowing how to die?"

The crew pulled a gun from behind and pointed at Prague and Pete.

"What are you going to do? You don't want to shoot and say something." Pete was terrified, clutching Prague's arms and hiding behind her.

Prague was first frightened by the crew's actions, but she was even more frightened by Pete's cowardly behavior.

"Don't kill them first. The kid's father is rich. Get some money from his father first."
