When Victor Butt was released from prison, he still felt like he was dreaming.

Zhang San and Li Si were communicating with him, and Major Bout's eyes glanced at Ye Kai from time to time, obviously very interested in this young man who could influence General Zyuanov to change his mind.

"Mr. Ye Kai, thank you very much for coming to the rescue, but what are you looking for me for?" After talking to Zhang San and Li Si, Major Bute asked Ye Kai.

"There are 550 million arms in the world, which means that there is one gun for every 12 people, and the only problem is ...... How do we get the other 11 people to own guns as well? Ye Kai suddenly asked Major Bute a very strange question.

"......" Major Bute looked at Ye Kai, and his brain was a little dull.

He did not expect that a Chinese who looked so young would ask him about arms trafficking, which was indeed a bit unexpected.

"There are still many places in the world that are not peaceful, people need weapons to defend their freedom and their lives and property, and we are the angels who help them achieve their wishes!" Ye Kai said to Major Bute.

This sentence sounded much simpler, and Major Bute immediately understood what Ye Kai meant, but he was still a little skeptical about what he said, why could Ye Kai do this kind of arms trade?

You must know that the arms trade is basically monopolized by the governments of a few large countries, and it is difficult for private individuals to intervene in it, let alone small people who have never had similar experience.

"I said that I moved General Zyuanov, and he agreed to marry his daughter to you......" When Ye Kai finished saying this, he saw that Major Bute's young face was full of surprise, and he said in his heart that this kid was really quite innocent, and he used him to achieve his goal, which was indeed a little dishonorable in terms of means.

"Sir, you are truly my angel! Say, what do you need me to do? Even if the Kyiv Military District is blown up, I don't have a second word! Major Bout was visibly a little dazed and a little out of his mind.

Ye Kai suddenly smiled and said, "That's not it, our purpose is to make money, not to die." ”

So Ye Kai simply explained his purpose, and Major Bute listened carefully.

Due to the change in Gorbachev's foreign policy, the end of the Cold War, and the relaxation of the international situation, orders in the arms trade market have dropped sharply, and a large number of weapons and ammunition produced by the Soviet Union have become surplus materials overnight, resulting in difficulties for many military industrial enterprises.

In order to turn the large amount of surplus arms that have been reduced into hard currency urgently needed for economic development and to find a way out for the survival and development of military industrial enterprises, we can only set our sights on the international arms trade market.

In this context, securing orders for arms trade is of great economic significance to military exporters.

"However, the Soviet military-industrial complex, because of the traditional problems of the past, they only sold weapons to countries that were ideologically close or traditionally friendly, and many of them were provided in the form of gifts or credits, which was not profitable, and you know, the Soviet Union's allies were basically in economic recession and political turmoil." Ye Kai said to Major Bout, "What we have to do is to strictly follow commercial principles, no matter what country, what region, and what type of weapon, as long as the other side is willing to pay hard currency, even if the Americans want to buy the S-300W anti-missile system with a higher hit rate than the "Patriot" missile, it is not without negotiation." ”

During the Cold War, the United States and the Soviet Union competed for hegemony, and the world was divided into two camps, East and West. Correspondingly, the world arms market, like the international market, is divided into two systems, the east and the west, which are clearly divided.

At that time, in order to strictly prevent the flow of their own advanced weapons into each other, the United States and the Soviet Union imposed a strict blockade on each other, and both only supplied weapons and equipment to their respective allies and "friendly" countries. To this end, the United States set up a huge Paris Coordinating Committee to control the purchase and theft of advanced Western weapons and cutting-edge technology that can be used to manufacture new weapons from the Soviet Union and Eastern European countries, and the Soviet Union has taken many preventive measures accordingly.

During this period, in order to compete for global strategic superiority, the United States and the Soviet Union stepped up the arms race and constantly created and provoked conflicts, and the world's military production and arms trade rose accordingly, and in 1987 the world's major conventional arms trade volume reached a record high of $36.45 billion.

After the end of the cold war, due to changes in the international situation and geopolitics, the original clear boundaries will gradually disappear, and the world arms market will once again become a unified market.

The United States, Britain, France, and other Western countries have begun to sell weapons to the Czech Republic, Poland, India, and other countries in the so-called "Eastern Arms Series" controlled by the former Soviet Union, while countries formerly belonging to the Soviet Union will also expand their arms trade to Turkey, Israel, and other traditional US arms sales countries.

The Soviet Union was the world's number one arms exporter in the seventies and eighties. Throughout the eighties, its share in the world arms trade reached almost 35 per cent. However, in recent years, with the marked decline of the Soviet Union's political status and international influence, the volume of foreign arms exports has dropped sharply year after year, forming a gap in some aspects.

"The market value of these blanks is actually very attractive, and the profits can exceed billions of dollars, or even more!" Ye Kai said, "Think about it, while we realize our personal value, we can also help the great country through the most difficult period, why not do such a thing?" Money, a mansion, a comfortable and stable life, these are all beckoning! Think about it, what reason do you have to resist the call of the Motherland?! ”

Zhong Liyu and Li Wu rolled their eyes when they listened to it, and said in their hearts that they didn't expect Ye Kai to have such a strong incitement ability, and it would be absolutely no problem for him to be a lecturer for those pyramid schemes.

Major Bute was deeply attracted by the grand blueprint drawn by Ye Kai, and seemed to see a bright future, beach houses, blonde beauties, supercars, private jets, it seemed that all this was within reach, as long as the conditions of this young Chinese were agreed.

"Well, sir, you've impressed me!" Major Bute licked his lips and said, "For the sake of a good life, do it!" ”

In the evening, Ye Kai sat down with General Zyuanov and Bout.

While eating, everyone discussed how to do the first business.

"This kind of thing, I can't come forward, I can only plan it behind the scenes." General Zyaanov, who took a firm stance, said, "But if we just sell AK47s, the profit is too low, and it is better than nothing, and we should make something good." ”

Ye Kai is naturally meaningless about this, as long as General Jiuanov has the ability, even if he gets the nuclear submarine out, Ye Kai is confident that he can find a buyer, but this possibility is really not large.

"Actually, the S-300W anti-missile system is good, but I don't know if I can get it?" Ye Kai said casually.

"One of my distant uncles is the commander of logistics in the Kyiv Military District, and in their arsenal, they even have helicopter gunships, and the S-300W anti-missile system, if you want to make a big one, I think you can move him, of course, this requires enough benefits, the old man is very stubborn, but no matter how stubborn a person is, in front of the dollar, he will loosen his position." Major Bout said.

General Zyuanov shook his head and said, "I suggest that we should be pragmatic and get some easy goods first, in fact, Africa is a good dumping ground for conventional weapons, where tribal wars often occur, and the guerrillas of ** are also rampant, as Mr. Ye Kai said, AI47 is also a good choice." ”

Ye Kai also agreed with Zyuanov's suggestion.

In fact, he was also interested in the troubled land of Africa, where they were poor and had no dollars, but gold, ivory, jewelry, diamonds, and so on, were hard currencies that were more popular than dollars.

What's more important is that Jiuanov and Major Bout do not have sales channels for these things, and if they want to realize it, they still have to do it through Ye Kai, so the distribution of benefits at that time is completely in Ye Kai's hands.

After some in-depth talks between the three of them, they finally formed a perfect combination of General Zyuanov's dredging relationship, Major Bute's specific implementation, and Ye Kai's responsibility for the sale of stolen goods and profit distribution afterwards.

"As a sign of sincerity, I'll take out some cash first." Ye Kai directly grabbed a safe, and after opening it, it contained 500,000 US dollars in cash.

Both the old and small revolutionaries were more excited when they saw the colorful dollar bills.

The old revolutionaries even constructively suggested that they could consider getting some small short-range missiles to sell to Africans.

"Wealth is moving!" After Ye Kai returned to the hotel, he sighed.

"I've always felt that this thing is a bit unrealistic." After Zhong Liyu took a bath, she wrapped herself in a towel and said worriedly.

"There's nothing wrong with that." Ye Kai hugged Zhong Liyu, lay down on the bed together, and said to her, "It's like two people fighting, they are bare-handed, but they must put each other to death, with their teeth, with stones, tear each other apart, how cruel is this?" ”

Zhong Liyu nodded, looking at Ye Kai with some hesitation, obviously feeling a little uncomfortable about the bloody scene depicted by Ye Kai.

"Now it's fine." Ye Kai untied Zhong Liyu's bath towel, grabbed one of the cherries with his mouth, and said vaguely, "They have a gun!" One shot and the problem solved! What a wonderful thing it is that there is no more primitive blood, and everyone has become civilized?! ”

"This ...... It's actually a beautiful thing......" Zhong Liyu had a hard time accepting Ye Kai's statement, she thought that it was just one kind of gore replacing another, and it hadn't changed in essence.

"So, you think it's bloody to kill people with guns, but it's just based on the fact that you don't have a gun in your own hands, and there is nothing wrong with the gun itself, it's always the human heart that is at fault!" Ye Kai concluded.

"Well, there's nothing wrong with the guns themselves...... Zhong Liyu said, "but your guns hurt me." ”
