People are watching American TV shows, and they are also watching American-style iaido.

“Indeed,” Eddie Thomas readily admitted. “You’re a very capable person. I didn’t expect you to do it so quickly.”

“Thank you for the compliment,” Ding Ze replied with a smile. “Since you’re interested, Director Thomas, would it be convenient for you to come to Columbia? We can talk in person.”

“No problem,” Eddie Thomas readily agreed.

the reason is simple.

Today, Ding Ze, who integrates the specialty products businesses of Mexico and Colombia, can offer the CIA, or rather, the strength and security of the United States, much more.

In other words, Ding Ze is now extremely valuable and useful, and there is no doubt that he is worth the trip.

“Director Thomas is very straightforward, so I won’t beat around the bush. I need you to bring a friend over, Director Thomas. My operations in Colombia are still missing a piece,” Ding Ze said.

"The director of the DEA?" Eddie Thomas asked directly.

“Yes,” Ding Ze replied frankly.

“I can take him there, but you’ll have to pay a high price for that,” Eddie Thomas said casually.

“I believe I can offer you more,” Ding Ze replied.

“I hope so,” Eddie Thomas smiled and asked, “When and where?”

"Tomorrow, Cali City."

"See you tomorrow."

call ended.

Ding Ze called Pachu again, "It's all arranged. See you tomorrow. I hope there won't be any problems on your end."

“Okay,” Patchouli replied succinctly.

Ding Ze didn't say anything more, and the group moved towards Kali.

Late at night, the group arrived in Cali and, without going far, found a hotel near the airport to stay in.

Isabella followed Ding Ze into the room.

Things have developed to this point during this trip to Colombia.

Isabella was very excited and thrilled.

She always remembered Ding Ze's promise, and now, as the Guadalajara Group is about to successfully take over most of Colombia's specialty products...

She couldn't help but want to further confirm Ding Ze's promise and what the next steps should be.

"Mr. Ding, your promise to me hasn't changed, has it?" Facing Ding Ze, Isabella didn't dare to be too forceful, and asked in a slightly coquettish tone.

Ding Ze grinned. "Of course, but you have to remember clearly, I said if you have that ability."

"I have it!" Isabella, being very assertive, immediately declared resolutely.

“It’s no use making promises to me. Once I’ve dealt with this, I’ll go back to America. You shouldn’t be worried about me,” Ding Ze said, picking up a piece of fruit from the Isabella cafeteria and popping it into his mouth.

Isabella understood, "Felix?"

“Well, Colombian specialties are dozens of times less profitable than Mexican green leaves. There’s a lot of money involved,” Ding Ze replied. “In addition, Felix is ​​extremely obsessed with power. If you’re in charge of Colombian specialty business, you’d better be careful, since he’s handling the less profitable green leaf business.”

"When I'm not here, you could die at any moment without knowing why."

Isabella had indeed anticipated that Felix wouldn't easily relinquish this power, but when it came to life and death...?

Isabella, who was about to realize her dream, didn't want to die. "Mr. Ding, are you kidding me?"

“No, you will die if I’m not here, that’s for sure,” Ding Ze repeated earnestly.

Isabella: "...What should I do?"

"Didn't you just say you were very capable?" Ding Ze laughed. "I won't be back for a few more days, so you should think carefully about what to do in the next few days."

“If you can’t figure it out, it’s pointless for me to force you to take charge of that part of the business. You won’t be able to handle it,” Ding Zezhen said nonchalantly.

Isabella was silent for a moment, then nodded. "Okay."

This concludes this part of the topic.

Next up is playtime.

Ding Ze had to admit it.

Isabella, a slightly chubby woman who can play with anything, is really fun to play with. It would be a real shame if she died.

But that's all there is to it.

*******

the other side.

Gilbert's home.

The atmosphere among the four gentlemen of the Cali Group was not very harmonious.

Gilbert has already announced the decision.

Pachu didn't waste any words and firmly expressed his support.

Miguel still had some complaints, but he held back and didn't grumble. He only stated that in tomorrow's negotiations, he must strive to gain as many benefits as possible...

Chip's words could be considered the main reason for this disharmonious atmosphere.

Chip had been silent for a while, taking deep drags on his cigarette.

Gilbert advised again, "Chip, having a lot of money and enjoying a stable life isn't a bad thing. This kind of life, while exciting, isn't a long-term solution..."

Gilbert gave him some advice.

Chip didn't interrupt, just silently smoked. He waited until Gilbert finished speaking before speaking, and said resolutely, "I need to add one condition to tomorrow's negotiations: I must be part of the management of the Guadalajara Group."

Gilbert was genuinely surprised that Chip was so obsessed with this kind of exciting life.

After the initial surprise, I thought about it and realized there wasn't a problem. "Okay, you bring it up tomorrow, and we'll make it happen."

After that, the four of them talked for a long time.

-

time flies.

a new day.

CIA Director Eddie Thomas and DEA Director Stephen Wilson, accompanied by a group of CIA agents, arrived in Cali.

Both bureau chiefs are prominent figures.

Ding Ze couldn't show himself directly.

After all, if someone takes a picture of it and uploads it online, that would be quite a spectacle.

Therefore, Ding Ze, Felix, and Mickey did not go to pick them up, but Amado and Isabella did.

Amado and Isabella picked up the person and headed straight to the hotel.

in the hotel.

With a little effort, Ding Ze, along with Mickey, successfully met Eddie Thomas.

Ding Ze and Mickey both show their true faces.

Eddie Thomas smiled faintly when he saw Ding Ze.

Both parties were sensible and knew they were there to discuss shady business, so they didn't waste any time on small talk. After a brief exchange of pleasantries, they got down to business.

“Mr. Ding, tell me what you want, and I’ll tell you what I want,” Eddie Thomas said.

What does Ding Ze want? That's an interesting question.

Of course, what Ding Ze really wanted to tell Eddie Thomas was something he couldn't possibly tell.

Ding Ze thought for a moment, "In the short term, I have two things I want: Mexico and the president of Colombia."

Eddie Thomas chuckled. "You've got some nerve! What do you want those two things for?"

"War," this is something that can be said, Ding Ze said it very bluntly.

Eddie Thomas immediately raised an eyebrow. "Hmm?"

Ding Ze smiled and said, "This is what I told you on the phone yesterday—more of what I can offer."

"Let Mexico and Colombia start a war and become America's henchmen."

Eddie Thomas genuinely hadn't expected Ding Ze to want to do something like this, and after a moment's thought, asked, "What benefit would you get from this?"

“Many,” Ding Ze smiled.

“For example?” Eddie Thomas asked.

“Money, power, a good mood, and so on,” Ding Ze replied casually.

Eddie Thomas, of course, didn't believe it. "Which country are you going to start a war with? The current world situation is not as simple as you think. If two countries go to war, it could very well trigger World War III."

Ding Ze grinned. "World War III sounds scary, but in reality, it's not that easy to happen. Director Thomas, you know that."

"As for the targets of war, I agree with the CIA on this point. The countries you are frequently active in can all be targets."

"Let Mexico do what your CIA can't do, and America can take the opportunity to sell more of its stockpiled weapons and reap a wave of wealth. Everyone will be happy."

The United States is a capitalist country that relies on technology, finance, and even war to repeatedly harvest global wealth in order to maintain its superior status.
