130. Gun shop
Using the small flying insects, although Li Du was not exhausted, he was also quite hungry. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ο½iqugeγ ο½ο½fo
Alcohol can be converted into energy to replenish the energy expended, so he wasn't just joking with Sophie.
Of course, he couldn't really drink medical alcohol, after all, he hadn't lived enough.
There was a lot of wine and meat at the party, and the Americans were so wasteful, even in the slums, that they prepared a lot of food, and at least half of it would be thrown away.
During the meal, Li Du was unceremonious, and swept with Ah Meow, and Sophie, who ate, was dumbfounded.
"What's wrong?" asked Li Du, "what do you mean by your expression?"
Sophie said weakly, "I wanted to treat you to a meal to thank you for saving me, but now it seems that I should thank you in a different way." β
Li Du did not eat their meals in vain, and he eventually donated 1,000 yuan to the community hospital.
In the next few days, the paper towels of the Hans Japanese army nobles were disposed of, and one roll was sold for 500 yuan, and the fifteen rolls were sold for a total of 7,500 yuan.
Li Du was surprised when he went to collect the money: "How did you do it? These papers are not cultural relics, are they? You can buy a paper machine for 7,500 yuan, who is so stupid to buy these papers?"
Hans sipped his beer and said triumphantly, "That's the means, man, that's how good Boss Fu is." β
"You're amazing. Li Du had to be convinced, "But I want to know who is so stupid? Spend a few thousand yuan to buy a bunch of toilet paper?"
Hans said: "It's an RB businessman in Los Angeles, that guy is in real estate, he has money, what he lacks is status......
"After many RB people immigrated to the United States, in order to increase their worth, they said that they were descendants of the nobility. So how do you prove it? Some aristocratic articles are the best means. β
"Our ones are not hand papers, but paper towels, and they are not ordinary paper towels, which are special paper towels for aristocratic officers of the Japanese army. When someone buys it back and collects it, they can claim that it is a piece of paper left by the family, and raise their status from this aspect......"
After listening to his explanation, Li Du was surprised: "Using handwritten paper to prove his status, RB people are quite strange." β
"The more people and things you've seen, the more strange things you know. Hans was disdainful of his loneliness.
Li Du really didn't expect that these papers could be sold for 7,500 yuan, and a second-hand BMW in the United States is only at this price.
But Hans is right that there is no such thing as anything that is absolutely valuable or worthless, but to see if there is a suitable buyer.
As long as there is a suitable buyer, such as a person dying of thirst in the desert, that bottle of mineral water can be sold for 10,000 yuan.
There was also this machine gun to deal with in the back, and they had brought it with them at the beginning of June when they were on their way to an auction in Phoenix.
There was nothing of value in this auction, and Li Du auctioned off an ordinary home warehouse and made two thousand yuan with the furniture and electrical appliances in it.
Disposing of furniture and appliances, Hans took him to a gun shop.
The gun shop, called Veteran's World, has a quaint look with a flintlock pistol embedded in the door panel, and the handle of the flintlock pistol is the door grip.
When you open the door and enter, it is filled with a wide variety of goods, just like a supermarket.
However, the supermarket is full of household groceries and snacks and drinks, while this store is full of guns and accessories.
From the entrance, there are dozens of shelves in the store, on which are all kinds of long and short guns, submachine guns, rifles, carbines, sniper rifles, etc.
The walls are also filled with guns, mainly shotguns and shotguns, while pistols are stored on the counter, ranging from flintlock pistols to modern pistols.
In addition to firearms, there are also various accessories, such as optical sights, school gun scopes, holsters, backpacks, rings, belts, coats, helmets, goggles, headphones, walkie-talkies, and so on.
In one of the counters is the tools for cleaning the guns, with detergent, gun fluid, and different types of gun brushes.
After taking a turn in the gun shop, Li Du understood why the old United States could not pass the gun ban, there were too many people who liked to play with guns, and too many people were affected by the gun industry chain.
Seeing the two of them, a young white man with pimples on his face came over and asked, "Good afternoon, you guys, what do you want?"
Hans said, "What about your boss Maurice? I'm from the Treasure Hunter Society, and I've called him to bring him something he likes." β
The white youth asked him for the last four, and then left for a while, quickly bringing with him an old white man with a big belly.
"Hey, Hans, you're finally here, you say you have a baby I like?
Li Du likes to do business with such people, and he is simply straightforward.
Hans made a phone call, and Godzilla walked in with the suitcase.
Morris whistled and said, "That grumpy little scoundrel is in here, I don't believe it, it weighs sixty-three kilograms!"
"This fellow of mine is a descendant of Hercules. Li Du patted Godzilla's strong arm and said.
Morris said: "I believe that. β
Behind the gun shop is a wide shooting range, in which more than a dozen people are playing with guns, and the crackling and deafening sound continues.
Morris took them to a corner where to clean up, and when they opened the box, the Type 92 heavy machine gun was revealed.
After seeing the gun, Morris found a tool, skillfully disassembled it, and then carefully examined it.
After more than half an hour, he raised his head and said, "It's a good baby, Boss Fu, you have done a good thing this time." β
"This gun is original, right?"
"Every part is, even the screws are almost all original accessories of the RB people. Morris nodded with satisfaction.
Upon hearing this, Hans laughed and asked, "And how much are you willing to take this gun?"
Morris said: "You know my temper, I will not make a false price, if it can shoot, then I will give you 55,000 yuan, if it can't be used, you take it away, I will not take the rags!"
Li Du was taken aback, Hans estimated it at 40,000 yuan, but he didn't expect Morris to give such a high price.
Apparently Hans was also surprised: "Fifty-five thousand dollars? To be honest, this is not a low price, why?"
Morris flipped over the bracket and pointed downwards and said, "Look here, here's its identity." β
Underneath the bracket is an aluminum nameplate with a series of small letters: 第δΈεΈ«ε£, γ’γ«γγ‘......
"The First Division?" Li Du only knew the words in the front, but not in the back row, and Hans was even more miserable, and he didn't know one.
Morris nodded and said, "Yes, this gun belongs to the First Division, and many American fathers, husbands and children were killed by this cousin!"
At the end of the Pacific War, the tide of the war took a turn for the worse, and the Japanese 1st Division was ordered to be transferred to Leyte Island.
On November 1, 1944, the 1st Division miraculously landed in the Olmerk area on the west coast of Leyte, preparing to move north to attack the Tacroban area from Carigra, but the American troops landing on the east bank had completely occupied the Tacroban area.
On November 5, 1944, the U.S. Army and the 1st Division encountered each other in the Limeng Gorge, and in the next 50 days, the 1st Division and the U.S. Army attacked and defended each other, and they were in a stalemate.
This force was very brutal and fought a bloody battle with the American troops, who had the advantage of terrain, numbers and artillery fire, and in the end, only 800 soldiers remained in the 1st Division, which had 15,000 soldiers at the time of landing......
The Type 92 machine gun gained a lot of American lives in this battle, and became famous for it.
It is for this reason that the Type 92 machine guns of the 1st Division are worth a little more than the others.
