196 There is nowhere to find the iron shoes
Wu picked up tens of thousands of dollars, and Liukin sold all the weapons selected by Xiao Feng to Xiao Feng at a package price, Xiao Feng didn't expect this old Russian man to be so cool.
In fact, it's normal to think about it, if Xiao Feng doesn't come to buy these things, they will be put in this warehouse and dusted, and they are all some old weapons, even if there is a way to sell them in the international market, they can't sell them at a good price.
Even if there are only a few T72 tanks, it will only be hundreds of thousands of dollars on the international market, and even if you are cheap, many people are reluctant to buy them, after all, this is already a weapon that is behind this era.
The countries that can afford to buy them are not willing to buy these backward weapons at all, and those organizations that are willing to buy them can't afford this price, so it is better to simply package and sell them to Xiao Feng at a cheap price.
500,000 US dollars, according to the current exchange rate, is more than 3 million yuan, for Xiao Feng, it is half a month's profit from celebrity chefs, which is not a problem at all, and he is very happy to be able to sell so many big killers.
Liukin was even more happy, these 'rags' have been in his warehouse for more than ten years, not only occupy space, but also take up a large part of his funds, which gives him a headache, and he is of course happy to be able to dispose of some of them today.
After negotiating the terms of the deal and Xiao Feng paid again, Peter contacted a few large container trucks to come over, packed those things and transported them to a warehouse in Vladivostok, as for how Xiao Feng got these things away, he didn't care.
and Liukin returned to his house, and now the old man was even more enthusiastic, so he had to invite the two to stay and have a meal together, not to mention that the old man's barbecue skills were really good, and Xiao Feng and Peter were very happy.
Of course, eating is indispensable to drink and brag, this Liujin may not have spoken to anyone for too long, this time it is rare for Xiao Feng and Peter to come over, and they also helped him solve a heart problem, so he pulled the two to talk non-stop, of course, the main thing is to remember his glorious years.
It's all anecdotes about his time as an arms dealer, not to mention the old man's experience back then, his customers are all over Africa, the Middle East and India.
He thought that Xiao Feng was also a second-tier dealer in the arms business, so as an old-timer, he specially explained to Xiao Feng a lot of the doorways in the arms business, and also specially introduced him to the characteristics of many customers, such as what to pay attention to when dealing with African warlord leaders, what to pay attention to when dealing with local tyrants and tycoons in the Middle East, and how to bribe those Indian officials, what official rank and what price, and so on.
When Xiao Feng learned that this old man still had many Indian customers, he suddenly asked in his heart: "Liukin, have you ever been to Surat, India?"
Liukin was stunned for a moment when he heard him ask, and then the expression on his face quickly became richer: "What? There are your customers over there? Let me tell you, many of the people there were my customers back then, haha, I am very familiar with many people over there." ”
When Xiao Feng heard Liujin say this, he almost jumped up happily, just as the so-called stepping on the iron shoes has nowhere to be found, it takes no effort to get there!
Before, he still had a headache about how to go to India to deal with the diamonds in his hand, after all, he didn't know anyone, and he didn't feel at ease when he went, but now Liukin actually said that he knew someone there, which is great.
"Do you know the diamond merchant there?"
Peter and Liukin were stunned when they heard this, but soon Liukin danced with his hands, obviously feeling that he and Xiao Feng had found a common topic.
"Yes, haha, of course, almost all of my clients in Surat were jewellers, and those people were the most daring clients I ever met in India, why?
"Uh... I wanted to do some business with them, but I didn't know much about the people there, so I didn't dare to go. ”
"Haha, don't worry, I'll introduce you to a few, you wait. ”
Liukin got up and went up to the second floor with a bang, and the excited footsteps were about to collapse the floor slab, and at this time, Peter turned his head and asked Xiao Feng, "Do you want to buy some diamonds?"
"Well, yes, you know that sometimes cash isn't very convenient. ”
Xiao Feng was embarrassed to be too direct with him, but Peter nodded: "Indeed, diamonds are very convenient to carry, but this thing has a lot of moisture, you be careful not to be deceived." It's a pity that our family is losing ground now, otherwise I could get you some from Siberia. ”
At the end of the seventies of the last century, the former Soviet government discovered a large diamond mine in Siberia, so it began to mine wildly, but the quality of this mine is average, there are no large diamonds, and some broken diamonds are produced, but after a large number of inflows into the international market, it has also had a great impact on the price of diamonds, so that later De Beers had to pull the former Soviet Union into their alliance, which stabilized the international price of diamonds.
Later, after the collapse of the former Soviet Union, the mine was swallowed up by several Russian oligarchic families, forming the current one of the world's three major diamond giant companies, Alrosa Company, which is also one of the price setters in the international diamond market.
Soon after a sound of thumping footsteps, Liukin rushed down from the upper floor, still holding a business card case in his hand, Jean rummaged through the business card box, and then found a business card and handed it to Xiao Feng.
"If you want to go to India to buy diamonds, you can go to this Calabi. Surasiv, who was my biggest client in Surat at the time, was also a well-known diamond merchant in Surat. I have been doing business with him for many years and his business reputation has always been very good. It's just a pity that I was blacklisted by the CIA and couldn't easily enter and exit many countries, so I broke off the deal. But we've always been in touch with each other, and he's still in the diamond business. You go to him and mention my name, and he will certainly not deceive you. ”
Xiao Feng looked at the black bronzing business card in his hand, not to mention how happy he was, now there is finally a door to deal with diamonds.
"Thank you Liukin. ”
"You're welcome. ”
"By the way, Liukin, can you get some other powerful weapons?"
This Liujin person is good, and the relationship path is relatively wild, Xiao Feng feels that there is still a lot of potential to be tapped from this guy.
"Oh, what more do you want?"
Liukin didn't expect this guy to buy so much, and he was not satisfied, but this is fine, of course it is good to have a business to do and make money. 8)
