As a token of appreciation for Gao Yang's help, Polovich intended to send a gesture of goodwill, which was only appropriate.
Nodding in thanks, Gao Yang softly said, "When will that shipment arrive?"
What followed was not to be known by anyone. That shipment referred solely to the arms purchased by Iran, sent from Grand Ivan to Gao Yang, like a transaction from the left hand to the right. The reason it went through Iran was merely to have Iran foot the bill.
If this matter reached the ears of the Iranians, Gao Yang figured he shouldn't think about operating in Yemen anymore, and Grand Ivan shouldn't expect to do any business with Iran either. Nobody likes to be the scapegoat, so this issue was best known to a few.
Polovich was also very cautious, whispering, "Actually, this shipment and that shipment arrived together."
Gao Yang was both surprised and delighted, whispering, "Already here?"
