880: Chapter 870 Dissolution of Friend of Nature 880: Chapter 870 Dissolution of Friend of Nature Leaving the small boat for the speedboat, Gao Yang and his group disembarked at a riverside dock full of yachts in Manaus under the cover of night before proceeding directly into a wealthy neighborhood nearby.
They opened an automatic gate and entered a luxurious house complete with a swimming pool.
The patient in the most critical condition was immediately taken to a makeshift operating room in the bedroom—three operating rooms allowed three patients to be attended to at once.
Friend of Nature had prepared well: three doctors and at least about ten nurse assistants were already waiting in the operating room, ready for surgery.
After the most severely injured man, Huan, was pushed into the operating room, a doctor with his gloved hands raised immediately said, “Prepare the skin, start the surgery right away.”
Bruce and Andy He both breathed a sigh of relief, after which Andy turned to Friend of Nature with a smile, “Looks like I’m not needed after all.
Thank you, I really do need to rest now.”
Friend of Nature nodded at Gao Yang, then pulled Andy aside and whispered, “These are doctors I found, but I don’t know how capable they are.
If they say there’s no issue, let them operate.
If not, buddy, you’ll need to step in.”
Andy grinned, “Alright, I hope they’re up to par because I’m really exhausted, buddy.
I’ve just come back from a fight, and performing surgery is more taxing than battling.”
As soon as Andy finished speaking, the doctor preparing to operate on Huan rushed out of the operating room, and although his face was masked, he couldn’t hide the panic in his voice and his true thoughts.
“Sir, sir, I’m sorry, I can’t guarantee the patient will survive.
His injuries are too severe; the fact that he’s made it this far is already a miracle.
Sir, if you demand that I guarantee his survival, I really can’t perform the surgery.
At best, they have a thirty percent chance, no, twenty percent.”
The man standing next to Friend of Nature raised a handgun and said to the trembling doctor, “If he lives, you live.
If he dies, you die.”
The doctor was on the verge of tears, his legs shaking like a sieve, “Sir, I can’t do it, his injuries are too severe.
Even if you kill me, he won’t survive.”
By then, doctors from the other two operating rooms had also come out, one after another, and their situation was the same—they dared not operate.
Gao Yang sighed and said to Friend of Nature, “Did you coerce them?”
Friend of Nature dejectedly replied, “High pay plus intimidation…
seems like they really can’t do it.”
After a meaningless groan, Andy addressed Friend of Nature, “Alright, I’ll take over then.
Damn, I thought I’d get to rest.”
After speaking, Andy said to the hesitant doctors, “You don’t need to operate.
Look after the patients, just keep them alive.
I’ll handle the surgery.”
Then, Andy turned to Bruce, “How about you perform an operation too?”
Bruce shook his head, “No, it won’t do.
I can do emergency aid, but don’t let me do intricate follow-up surgery.
Being used to being a war medic, I can’t help but work too quickly, which might cause unnecessary complications.”
Andy shrugged, “Then be my assistant.
I don’t trust them.”
With resignation, Bruce shrugged as well, “Okay, I’ll assist you.”
Andy waved off the three hugely relieved doctors, “Go on, do your thing.
Oh, and get me ready for sterilization.”
After sending the doctors off, Andy turned to Bruce with a resigned expression, “Buddy, give me a shot.”
Bruce looked at Gao Yang and then back at Andy, frowning, “Is it necessary?”
Andy sighed, “Buddy, I just fought a battle, nearly got scared to death by a jammed crappy gun, then did medical aid with you, went on a march for over a dozen hours, and sat on a boat for a few more.
And I’m aware of the patients’ conditions.
To get through surgeries for all three, it’ll take at least sixteen hours.
Buddy, my body is full of strength, but my spirit can’t hold out.”
Bruce said in a deep voice, “To use a stimulant, we need the Boss’s approval.
Boss, shall we use it?”
Gao was reluctant as he never wanted anyone to use stimulants at any time.
Glolov’s brother in life and death, Ivan, was ruined by stimulants, and Bruce had also become addicted due to stimulants in the past.
Stimulants are harmful, but they can also be beneficial, crucially beneficial, which is why Bruce had brought them—they were meant for saving lives.
Now Andy needed them to save lives.
Although the stimulants were not intended for Satan’s men, and Andy would not be operating on Satan’s men, they couldn’t just watch the hard-fought surviving patients die.
So, this was a time when they must reluctantly resort to stimulants.
Gao Yang sighed and said, “Go ahead.”
Bruce took out a pre-filled syringe, and Andy He touched his own neck and said, “Administer it here, it works faster.”
Bruce ignored Andy He, grabbed his arm instead, and after stabbing the needle through his clothes, said in a stern voice, “I’m the medic.
You listen to where I say to inject.”
Andy He gave a smile, said no more, and went directly into the operating room.
Gao Yang and the others all sat in the living room, still wearing their gear.
Those who found a sofa sat down, and those who didn’t simply flopped down on the floor, closed their eyes, and began to sleep.
After taking a seat on the sofa, Gao Yang said to Jansen, “Big Bird, you should still be energized.
Go outside, stand guard.”
“Yes, Boss.”
Jansen went out alone with his gear.
At this point, Friend of Nature said to Gao Yang, who was sitting on the sofa, “You can rest now, it’s safe here.”
Shaking his head, Gao Yang replied, “No, I don’t consider this a safe environment.
If the Commercial Alliance could intercept us on the river, they might send someone to follow us.
And the Iron Madonna, if they came here to attack, I wouldn’t be surprised at all.
So, the fight isn’t over yet, pal.”
Friend of Nature paused for a moment before saying, “Alright, I’ll send two more people out to stand guard.”
Gao Yang snapped his fingers, his voice serious as he said, “Pal, let’s talk about the final payment now.
When we jumped from the plane, there were five of you alive, and now, we’ve brought back five alive.
True, three might die, but they are still alive now, right?
And my people will continue to save them for free, even though medical work is outside our scope, but no worries, it’s on us.
According to our agreement, we’ve completed the mission, do you have any objections?”
Friend of Nature nodded repeatedly, “No objections, none at all.
You’ve done an exceptionally good job.
Fifteen million US dollars, I’ll make the payment right away.”
Gao Yang opened his satellite phone, and Friend of Nature also made a call.
Within a few minutes, Gao Yang received a call from Little Donnie.
“The money is received, all thirty million.”
After hanging up the call from Little Donnie, Gao Yang smiled and gave Friend of Nature a thumbs up, “I appreciate how quickly you pay.
You’re a good client.”
Friend of Nature, however, couldn’t muster a smile, as four of his people had also been taken away.
After hearing Gao Yang’s words, Friend of Nature forced an ugly smile, “Then, can we continue our cooperation?”
Gao Yang waved his hand, “Let’s hear it.”
“I hope you can rescue those who were taken away.”
An expected response and mission.
Gao Yang nodded immediately, “We can, first, we need to know where they are, then we can discuss the mercenary fee.”
Friend of Nature laughed awkwardly, “The fee may not please you because I’m out of money.”
After finishing his sentence, Friend of Nature sighed and looked up at Gao Yang, “My father is a businessman, but he’s also a big shot, both economically and politically.
I’m afraid to say my name because of him.
I’ve gone a bit too far lately, so my father has cut off my financial source.
I don’t have money now.”
Gao Yang dismissed it, “That’s your concern not mine.
Now tell me, where are those four people being held, who is guarding them?
Give me this information, and I’ll give you a quote.”
Friend of Nature sighed, “They’re currently in the hands of the Commercial Alliance.
I don’t know how many are guarding them, but soon, they’ll be transferred to the Brazilians.
Whether they’ll be sent to the police or jail, that’s still unknown.
But I think they’ll first go to the hospital to treat the wounded, then they’ll be thrown straight into prison.
There might be a trial, but that’s just for show, to draw international attention.
The influence of the Commercial Alliance on the Brazilian government is too great.
They being found guilty will not change.”
Gao Yang shrugged his shoulders, “Still, that’s none of my business.
I only care about what the mercenary should handle.
Alright, here’s my quote: if your people are with the Commercial Alliance, one million US dollars.
If they get thrown into jail and we have to bust them out, two million US dollars.
If opponents like Iron Madonna get involved, then the price is subject to discussion.”
Friend of Nature looked at Gao Yang in shock but didn’t say a word.
Gao Yang spread his hands, “What, you have an objection to the price?”
With a heartfelt tone, Friend of Nature said, “Thank you, thank you, Ram.
I knew it, even if I had no money to give you, you wouldn’t just stand by and do nothing.
Thank you, Ram, thank you.”
Gao Yang shook his head, “Don’t thank me.
This is just business.
I fight while you pay.
It’s a transaction, so you don’t have to thank me.”
Friend of Nature chuckled, “One million won’t hire you guys.”
Looking into Friend of Nature’s eyes, Gao Yang spoke firmly, “If you acknowledge that the price is low, that’s good.
Listen, I have a condition.
If you fulfill it, I’ll rescue everyone for you.”
Friend of Nature was serious as he asked, “What’s the condition?”
“Cease operations.
Disband Friend of Nature.
Stop attacking anyone under the guise of protecting the environment.
You should have realized by now that if you continue on this path, you’ll die.
Alright, I don’t want to preach, but if you agree to my terms, I’ll bring your people back!” (To be continued.
