In the brightly lit studio, Wei Ran walked out of the darkroom carrying a tray full of film.

Seeing this, Ji Ma, who had been waiting for a long time, immediately put down the half-smoked fish with only the bones left to meet the former, and asked with eager eyes, "Have you washed it out?"

Faced with Ji Ma's question, Weiran put the tray on the table and said, "These films have never been used at all."

Ji Ma's expression immediately turned from excitement to disappointment, "So nothing came out?"

"Nothing has been developed, and several of the films have been scrapped. Now you can only hope that the other items will sell for a good price."

Jima counted on his fingers and said, "Professor Alexei may be able to help sell that signed photo. Principal Nikolay said he couldn't buy those film films. I don't know how much the remaining spy equipment could be sold for."

..”

"Those things together may be sold for several million rubles." Weiran guessed wildly.

Jima frowned and muttered, "Even if it can be sold for 10 million rubles, it doesn't seem to be enough."

"How dare you?" Wei Ran poured himself a glass of milk and put it in the microwave, "You dare to think so."

Jima came back to his senses and said truthfully, "I want to buy that abandoned military base, and even want to repair the telescope and computer in the observatory."

Wei Ran was stunned, and while the microwave was running, he comforted him, "Jima, you have invested too much. Have you ever thought about it, even if you bought that military base, even if you repaired that telescope?

And computers. How many tourists do you need to get there to recoup the cost?”

"Uh..." Ji Ma raised his head after realizing, "That's right."

Wei Ran continued to ask, "Not to mention the military base, have you recovered the cost of your hot spring camp?"

Jima shook his head, "How is it possible? We just received the first batch of tourists."

"So wait until you recover the cost of the hot spring camp before you consider the military base. After the cost is recovered, that place will only be used as a shooting range. When the bullets there are all used up, you can then consider repairing the telescope.

It’s not too late.”

"makes sense"

Jima, who was easily persuaded, suddenly became happy again, grabbed the car keys on the table and walked out, "Victor, put those things in the safe for me to keep, and also lend me the car."

"Bring it back to me early tomorrow morning. I have to go out." Before Wei Ran finished speaking, Ji Ma had already opened the rolling shutter door and disappeared in a flash.

In the blink of an eye, early the next morning, the locked rolling shutter door banged loudly. Before Wei Ran could push the door completely to the top, Suisui, who had wrapped herself tightly, had already bent over and ran in.

"Why are you here here so early in the morning?" Wei Ran, who was only wearing pajamas, asked as he walked back.

"I'm not here to find you, where is Ji Ma?" Suisui followed step by step until he reached Wei Ran's bedroom door.

"You went out to fool around last night. Do you have something to do with him?" Wei Ran glanced helplessly at Suisui, who was leaning on the door frame and peering in. "Can you let me change clothes first?"

"You say it as if no one wants to look at you."

Suisui took half a step back and leaned against the wall next to the door and said, "Hasn't my classmate returned to China? They have organized a group of classmates and a few teachers, about 20 people. They plan to come over after completing the exam.

"

"etc"

Wei Ran, who had just put on his pants, poked half of his head out and asked, "Didn't you say you have failed three subjects? You haven't finished the co-writing exam yet?"

When Suisui heard this, she had a panic expression on her face, "Well..."

Wei Ran retracted his head and reminded, "You'd better tell the truth" while continuing to change clothes.

"That's the truth!"

Suisui stood at the door with her hands on her hips and said confidently, "We took the exam in two batches. What's wrong with the two exams being one month apart? If you have any objections, go to our school leaders. It's amazing to develop abdominal muscles? How dare you threaten?

I?"

"Come on this"

Wei Ran put on his clothes and shoes, and walked out while saying, "Are you sure your classmates and teachers can come?"

"I can definitely come," Suisui said confidently, "My husband just needs to communicate with Jima about the reception issue."

"Then wait"

Only then did Wei Ran take out his cell phone and call Jima. After the latter learned that there would soon be another group of tourists, there was a flurry of excitement and complaints from women on the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Suisui had already placed the breakfast she had brought on the table. After the two of them had finished eating and drinking, Ji Ma also drove Weiran's off-road vehicle and parked at the entrance of the studio.

"Aurora, are there really another group of guests?" Jima jumped out of the car and rushed into the studio without even closing the door. He had no idea that there were still several red lip marks on his face.

Suisui rolled her eyes, took out an itinerary from her bag and put it on the table.

Ignoring the discussion between these two money-obsessed money-lovers about making money, Wei Ran took out the piano case and started practicing the piano in front of the instructional video.

However, before the two of them could reach a mutually satisfactory result through discussion, a taxi stopped at the door of the studio.

As the car door opened, a slovenly old man with a beard and a slightly shorter height than Professor Alexei walked straight into the door of the studio with a shiny forehead.

"Who is Victor or Jima?" When the old man asked, he also revealed a golden denture and sprayed out a strong smell of alcohol.

"I am." Wei Ran and Ji Ma stood up at the same time, "What can I do for you?"

The old man glanced at Suisui, who was sitting aside and watching the excitement. The latter simply stood up and said, "You guys talk."

Watching Suisui disappear at the stairs leading to the bedroom, the old man said seriously, "I came at the invitation of Mr. Nicholas. He told me that you discovered an astronomical observatory on the east side of the Ural Mountains.

station, want to repair the astronomical telescope and a ternary computer there?"

Seeing Wei Ran looking at him, Jima nodded after hesitating for a moment, "That's true, but you came a little early. The power there hasn't even been restored yet, and I may not be able to get the money to repair it for the time being.

cost."

The visitor smiled nonchalantly, pulled out a chair beside the long table and sat down as if he was familiar with it, "Five thousand dollars, how about taking me there to take a look? If there is something I am interested in,

Maybe I will buy it at a price that you are satisfied with, and by the way, you can also go check out the astronomical telescope and computer in advance to evaluate whether they can be repaired."

"You give us five thousand dollars?" Ji Ma, who still had several lip prints on his face, immediately widened his eyes.

The visitor smiled, reached into his pocket and took out a wad of green cash and pushed it directly to Jima across the table.

Ji Ma grabbed the banknotes and smelled them vigorously. After he counted them one by one, he immediately said enthusiastically, "My God, when do you want to leave?"

“Please wait a moment”

Wei Ran said before the other party could speak, "Sir, what should we call you?"

"Galkin," the little old man said, showing his big gold teeth, "Maybe you can teach me Galkin Bosch."

Wei Ran shook hands with the other party without being humble or overbearing, "Galkin Bosch, we need to ask Mr. Nicholas first before we can decide whether to take you there."

"Of course, of course no problem." Galkin Bosch replied with a smile.

Chao Jima winked, and the latter immediately put the banknotes in his hand on the table, picked up the car keys again and ran away quickly.

"I heard that you also found some spy equipment there?" Galkin Bosch took out a small silver flask from his pocket, took a sip happily, and asked Wei Ran calmly.

“You are very well informed”

Galkin Bosch smiled and said, "Mr. Nicholas told me this. Young man, take out those spy equipment. Maybe I will be willing to buy them."

"Wait a moment." Wei Ran put away the guqin on the table and walked to the bedroom on the second floor holding the piano case.

"Who is that person here?" Suisui, who was hiding in Wei Ran's bedroom, asked curiously.

"I'm here to buy the things I found," Wei Ran explained in a low voice. He put the piano case on the bed, then opened the safe beside the bed and took out all the contents including the signed photo.

"How come you have so much money here?" Suisui asked in surprise. While Wei Ran was taking the bag, he also pulled out a pistol from it, "You even have a gun?"

Wei Ran took things out and said, "I earned the money myself, and your father gave me the gun. There are bullets inside. Be careful."

Suisui rolled her eyes, deftly removed the magazine of the desert-colored CZP09 pistol and the bullets in the chamber and replied, "When I was playing with guns, you were still in elementary school."

"Yes, you have a lot of experience, so you destroyed the ceiling and signboard of the travel agency with one shot." Wei Ran teased the other person and at the same time re-locked the safe lid.

Suisui punched Wei Ran angrily, "Can you not mention this? How did I know there were bullets in that shotgun?"

"Yes, it's the shotgun's fault." Wei Ran took the canvas bag and the tin box and walked out, "Wait upstairs and don't come down yet."

"Mysterious" Suisui muttered to himself, and threw the fresh pistol and magazine on the top of the safe, then looked at the piano case lying on the bed.

Downstairs, Jima had also driven back from Nikolai's place. After seeing Wei Ran come down, he immediately said, "Principal Nikolai said he can be trusted, so it's okay to take him there to see, and he

You can sell him anything you want to buy. In addition, teachers Culp and Dalia are also here, and they seem to be planning to take Principal Nicholas out for a few days."

Wei Ran nodded when he heard this and handed all the things in his hand to Ji Ma, "Go and talk to Galkin. He said he wants to buy these things."

"Looks like we don't have to go to Prague anymore."

Jima took the canvas bag and the iron box with a smile, and strode towards Galkin Bosch who was still sitting at the long table.

After carefully inspecting the items displayed by Ji Ma, Galkin Bosch finally put down the signed photo and asked, "Young man, please give me a price. How much do you plan to sell these things for?"

"I want to sell..."

"How about you make a price?" Wei Ran said faster, finally not letting Ji Ma reveal his psychological price.

Galkin Bosch smiled, twirling the beard on his chin and thinking for a moment, "How about fifty thousand rubles together? This is the highest price I can offer."

"Fifty thousand rubles?" Jima stood up with a splash, "Why don't you go and grab it?"

Galkin Bosch gestured with the wine bottle, "Aren't I just robbing you?"
