“Thank you for not asking about my present mode of transportation.  Do you speak Mandarin?”

“Oh good God.  China?  Give me a break.  To answer your question, hardly at all.”

“I’d suggest you brush up.  His name is General Xi Rongji.  He has been very naughty.  But more importantly, a message needs to be sent to those who authorized his naughtiness.  The fee is five million, which if you accept the assignment will be forwarded to your off-shore account in the next few minutes.  Before you ask, the entire amount is being paid in advance in case you run into difficulties.  I’d like to know your family will be well cared for.  You must have made an impression on your wife when you kidnapped her.”

When Newton had escaped in St. Charles, Missouri, he had in the process kidnapped a young woman.  He later sent her a fully paid roundtrip package to meet him Tahiti.  She took the trip and never returned home.

“You scare me, sir.  By the way, do I get to know who you are this time?”

“No.  Are you interested?”

“Yes, I’ll do it.  I like challenges.  A bit of information on how to find him, et cetera would be quite beneficial.”

“I’ll see what I can do.  I will email it to you…or have it done.  Study up on your Mandarin.”

“Fine.  Good luck on whatever in the hell you’re doing.  If it is any way connected with the contract I have just accepted, I have a feeling you’ll need some good luck.”

Ten minutes later, Richard Newton was five dollars million richer.  By then, Jim was speaking to Glenn Burgess.  “Glenn, need a favor.  Want you to find out all you can on General Xi Rongji.  Email it to Sarah.  She knows what to do with it.”

“Do I get a hint?”

“No.  I’d hate to ruin your stay as Director of the Central Intelligence Agency.”
