Volume IV Chapter 460 Ukrainian Arms Dealers
readx;
Rautz was a hawker who peddled second-hand weapons by profession, and his surname was similar to that commonly found in Chinese antique markets. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info specializes in the streets and alleys of Jinjibar, looking for buyers. But because he is only a peddler, most of the weapons in his hands are second-hand, and they are also the kind of parallel goods that have been used for a long time and are almost scrapped, and have undergone a series of makeovers. So his target is mainly on individual buyers, and he can't be a 'insider' who seems to know a lot about arms.
Finding the 'fat sheep' is Lauz's job every day, and the exchange is his daily go-to place, if nothing else, because this is the first choice for all those who come to Zimzibar to buy weapons.
Today, Lawz, who was wandering around the exchange as usual, suddenly saw a group of strange people coming to the exchange. It would have been a long time ago to say that he had been doing this kind of work in the vicinity for more than a decade, but the people he saw this time still aroused his interest.
There were a dozen or so people in the group, including Easterners, Westerners, blacks, and Arabs, almost all of the world's races. And from the observation of the pair of eyes he had cultivated, it was concluded that the group was headed by a young Oriental.
Here, he rarely saw the appearance of the Orientals. Of course, this Oriental refers specifically to the three kingdoms of China and Korea, and the other East Asian variegated races that are not black and yellow are not counted. Judging from the temperament of this group of people, they don't look like ordinary people, and he seems to have some impressions of two of them. It seems that a group of newcomers who have been active in this neighborhood recently.
Originally, this kind of big customer was not Rauz's target at all, and he rarely came forward to talk or sell weapons. Because most of these people know a lot about the weapons industry, and the purchase of weapons is also large-scale, and it is not something that he can afford as a peddler.
However, as if possessed by Allah, Rauz followed several people far behind and entered the exchange.
Li Mo and his party, who were looking at the display screen, had long noticed this sneaky person following behind. At first, Luo Xiang also planned to let people catch this suspicious person, but Li Mo stopped him. On someone else's territory, it's better to keep a low profile. As long as this man doesn't attract everyone's attention, he will follow behind.
"Hi, are you here to buy weapons?" Despite being an Arab, Rauz speaks English fluently. After following Li Mo and the others for a while, he suddenly stepped forward to say hello.
It didn't matter if he raised his hand to say hello, but he made Li Mo and the others inexplicable. I don't know who this person is? If you really have a bad purpose for them, then you won't jump out to say hello.
The mouse knew that it was time for him to step forward, so he walked in front and asked in a deep voice, "Who are you?" "From the very simple and popular decoration on the opposite side, it is impossible to guess the identity of the other party.
"Friend...... Don't be nervous, my name is Rhodes and I'm an intermediary. I just saw that you seem to be looking to buy weapons, and I know some very powerful arms dealers who can introduce you to them. The price of the private transaction is much more favorable, and there is no need to pay taxes! Rauz stretched out his hand to show that he was not hostile, and took two steps forward and whispered.
"Lawz? You say you're an intermediary and know a lot of powerful arms dealers? So what do you think we need for those people to have? As soon as the rat heard the other party's name, he had the urge to beat people, but fortunately the pronunciation of the word in Arabic was different, otherwise the rat would not have been polite to him.
Naturally, Rautz heard the ridicule in the mouse's tone, and he didn't mind. He glanced up at the display screen that Li Mo and the others were looking at just now, and said, "You guys are going to buy missiles, right?" Except for one or two missiles sold here, the others are very popular things, and those that are really advanced and sensitive, no one will put them on the exchange. ”
When Li Mo heard his words, his heart moved. I think it makes a lot of sense. For example, the sources of arms from underground arms dealers, except for a small number of copycats, other advanced weapons are obtained through some dishonorable means. In order to prevent the pursuit of some forces, they will definitely not be openly sold. The surname of the exchange is only a service organization, not a dealer. Weapons here need to be traded to participate, and some sensitive things are not willing to be taken out at all, and they do not dare to take them out.
Although the non-disclosure restricts the sale of sensitive weapons, the security surname is much higher. In addition, sensitive weapons are generally more advanced weapons, and the transaction volume is very large. As the saying goes, if you don't open for three years, you will eat for three years when you open. Some sensitive weapons also conform to this rule.
"How much do you want to be paid?" Without waiting for the mouse to speak, Li Mo asked. He also wanted to see what kind of sensitive weapons some of the arms predators who were deeply hidden. There may be an unexpected catch.
Rauzi smiled, he felt that this young man from the East was refreshing, and said, "Take you to $1,000, and if a few bosses make a deal, add another $5,000!" Seeing Li Mo's heartbeat, Lawz was not polite, and opened his mouth directly.
The mouse stared, and was just about to get angry, but was stopped by Li Mo again.
"Okay, I'll give you $500 first, and you can take us there. If there is something we need, it will not be less of a reward for you! "A few thousand dollars is really not in Li Mo's eyes, as long as there is something that makes him excited, let alone a few thousand, even tens of thousands of dollars is a matter of one sentence.
Lawz was overjoyed when he heard this, and immediately led the way in front. Like him, there are many hawkers who act as intermediaries in Zimzibar. Basically every peddler is backed by arms dealers, big or small. They can be called another type of salesman for arms dealers.
Under the guidance of Lawz, the three off-road vehicles crossed several avenues, and turned left and right to the eastern outskirts of Zimjibar. Here you can look up at a factory warehouse. It is also known as the 'arsenal' of locals and insiders.
Search the whole world, and only here can you see countless smuggled arms being transported here after getting off the ship, and waiting to be sold like ordinary commodities in warehouses.
"Arrived, just park here!" When he came to the door of a medium-sized warehouse, Lawz, who was in the car, suddenly opened his mouth and pointed to the warehouse road.
When Li Mo and the others got out of the car, they saw Lauz nodding and talking to the two guards guarding the warehouse gate. Soon, one of the guards went inside.
"Boss Li, the arms dealer I will introduce to you later is a Ukrainian. Few people know his name, and those who are familiar with him basically call him a warhead. While waiting, Lawz came to Li Mo and the others and whispered. On the way here, he already knew that these Orientals were Chinese, and the young man led by him was surnamed Li.
"Warhead...... That's a weird nickname! Luo Xiang chuckled when he heard this.
Li Mo's mind was not here, but when he heard that the arms dealer introduced by Rauz was a Ukrainian, he felt that he had come to the right place this time.
Ukraine is second only to Russia in the former Soviet Union. This is mainly due to Ukraine's geographical location and its rich mineral resources. After the collapse of the former Soviet Union, Ukraine inherited 30% of the Soviet defense industry and a large number of army weapons. It includes 6,500 tanks, more than 7,000 armored vehicles, 1,500 aircraft, 350 warships and nearly 4,000 nuclear weapons of various types. This number already exceeds the military power of the vast majority of countries in the world today. However, for financial and other reasons, Ukraine has destroyed all its nuclear weapons with the help of the United States and Russia, and has reduced most of its army. However, the various weapons and equipment left behind are still the targets of many countries in the world. Moreover, Ukraine's manufacturing technology in many weapons is not far behind Russia. Most of the weapons and equipment that Russia can manufacture today can be produced by Ukraine.
Li Mo also knows that Ukraine has the world's largest missile production plant, the Southern Machine. It can produce the world's largest missile, the SS-18 Satan heavy intercontinental missile. The Satan heavy ICBM is also the largest missile deployed in the world and the only land-based ICBM in the world with 10 guided warheads...... Too many honors have pushed 'Satan' to a pinnacle in the history of missile development. As one of the two countries in the world that can produce such missiles, Ukraine's military-industrial strength is beyond doubt.
If this arms dealer, nicknamed 'warhead', is really powerful in Ukraine, Li Mo doesn't mind maintaining a long-term cooperative relationship with him. After all, if the Star Organization wants to develop, before the Comet Group has the ability to study and develop new weapons, absorbing other advanced weapons for their own use is the only option for the current Star Organization.
After waiting for about 15 minutes, the Ukrainian arms dealer was still nowhere to be found. Lawz quietly glanced at Li Mo, who was full of leisure, and secretly sighed that the big boss was the big boss. Look at this bearing, it's just different.
Half an hour later, the closed door of the warehouse was opened, and a strange-looking man came out surrounded by a large crowd.
This person is said to be weird because this person's appearance and figure are very incongruous. He has a big head that doesn't match his thin body, and looks like an alien in some movies.
Seeing this 'majestic' posture, Li Mo knew that the main owner was coming. And the fart running past Ruse undoubtedly proved his guess.
"You're the big boss?" 'Warhead' glanced at Li Mo with slanted eyes, and said lightly. There was some contempt in his tone. Actually, he can't be blamed for this. Who made Li Mo too young? And he is also a Chinese. As we all know, in China, there is no non-political axe armed existence. What can a Chinese man buy here? Did you come all the way to buy a few pistols and go back? I began to hear reports from the guards that there was a big deal coming to the door, and the warheads hurried over from other places. Unexpectedly, the so-called 'big boss' turned out to be a young Chinese man. This couldn't help but make him very disappointed, and his tone was not very polite.
"Hehe, this gentleman, there is an old saying in China, people should not be good-looking. This is especially true when doing business. If Mr. easily exposes his thoughts because of a person's appearance, then I don't think Mr. will need to do business. Li Mo smiled indifferently and said very politely.
The atmosphere of the scene suddenly became tense, and the subordinates of the 'warhead' touched the guns in their arms or on their bodies one after another, and Li Mo's subordinates were not far behind, and they took out their weapons one after another to be vigilant against the other party.
