Chapter 162: Tricked

They got into the car to inspect the server, and Leonid stood next to the off-road vehicle driven by Cai Hongming and others and chatted with him.

This guy is indeed a China expert, he actually knows a lot of China's scenery and historical monuments, and from time to time sighs about how good China is, which makes Cai Hongming feel proud.

Of course, there is no lack of possibility.

He is a businessman, and Cai Hongming is the owner of the money, so he naturally has to deal with him well. Not to mention anything else, even for the sake of the goddess of money, it has to be like this.

Cai Hongming also followed his words and chatted with him with or without a match.

After chatting for a while, Leonid looked at the modified muscle car around him and shook his head, "Boss Hong, with all due respect, your car is really bad." ”

In order to appear close, Leonid specially added a Hongzi in front of the boss when he called Cai Hongming.

Cai Hongming didn't know that his car was very bad, but he couldn't do it, according to the latest news, the price of the knight he liked in the 15th century soared to 15 million after entering the customs. Your father's, he wouldn't dare buy it even if he had the money! With so much money, it's enough for him to open a few more super barbarian barbecue branches.

Therefore, he could only smile helplessly: "I don't have money, I don't dare to buy too good." ”

How can someone who can buy a server for 20 million yuan have no money.

Leonid obviously didn't believe it, "Boss Hong, no matter how much money you make, it's useless, you have to take it out and spend it." Like me, when I have money, I make the hottest chicks, smoke the best cigars, and drink the strongest wine. As he spoke, he led Cai Hongming to the off-road vehicle behind the big truck, patted the hood and said proudly: "This car is for you." ”

Cai Hongming took a closer look, it was not bad, it was an American military Humvee, and it looked like it had a wild taste.

"Well, the Yankee's car is not bad! A car like this costs only 100,000 yuan. You want as much as you want. ”

Cai Hongming listened to the egg, is this guy crazy, or does he think that China is the type of people who are stupid and have a lot of money? Didn't he know that the Hummer had been discontinued? Dare to ask for such a high price.

In the 1991 "Desert Storm" operation led by the United States, the Hummer was indeed famous for its excellent off-road maneuverability and effective load capacity, and was praised as the "king of off-road" by people inside and outside the American industry. However, the good times were short-lived. By 1993, many U.S. soldiers had been killed in Humvees during U.S. operations in Somalia. Then in the 2003 Iraq War. The Hummer is also often bombed by roadsides. bombs, mines, bazooka strikes, heavy losses.

The reason for this is that the Humvee's firepower is insufficient, its armor is weak, and its defense capability is extremely poor.

The Humvee's flat underbody and low chassis make it impossible to disperse or neutralize the explosive force of the bomb when it encounters a roadside bomb, resulting in a huge impact on the cab and easy to cause casualties.

For example, when on patrol. An improvised explosive device (IED) that explodes at the bottom of a Humvee can blow a Humvee up to two stories high, killing its occupants on the spot. Sometimes, an AK-47 rifle bullet can penetrate a Humvee. Thin armor is the number one reason why the Humvee was eliminated.

There is also the fact that the stability of the Hummer is very poor.

After the end of the Iraq War, statistics from the US Department of Defense showed that of the 85 soldiers killed in Humvee crashes, 60 died in rollover accidents, a rate as high as 70%.

As many as 337 soldiers were injured in the Humvee crash. So much so that in the later period, the US troops in Iraq had to withdraw the Humvee from the front line of the war to the rear. The Hummer was nicknamed "Death Trap". The voices calling for the elimination of the Humvee and better protection for the soldiers are getting louder and louder.

And in previous years, gasoline and diesel prices were high. The Humvee, known as the "oil tiger", is even less popular. Again, this is a big drawback of the Hummer.

Environmentalists believe that Hummer has become synonymous with wasting energy, and an "anti-Hummer trend" has gradually formed in American society. When people buy a Hummer, they have to consider the social impact and economic benefits, and the civilian sales of the Hummer have also been declining year by year. In 2009, General Motors, the manufacturer of the "Hummer", was forced to declare bankruptcy and reorganization. Only the production line for small quantities was retained.

Finally, there is another reason for the low potential for modification of the Hummer.

The Pentagon tried to modify the Humvee.

However, the Hummer was designed from the outset as a light multi-purpose vehicle, not an armoured vehicle, so there was limited room for modification. It cannot carry too many information-based weapons. If the Humvee is armored, the seams between the armor plates remain vulnerable to the impact of the explosion. The Humvee, which originally carried two tons, was also overwhelmed by the power system after being armoured, and could only carry less than 500 kilograms. Many weaknesses have led to the fact that this once proud general of the US military has to step down from the stage of history.

After the crisis in Ukraine, civilian armed forces in the east occupied cities and declared independence.

It was also lucky that they received a batch of military Humvees from the United States to aid Ukraine, so the Humvees on their side were not worth anything at all.

Although Cai Hongming is not very familiar with cars, he has also read the news and knows that the ordinary Humvees ordered by the US military from the Humvee Company do not exceed $50,000 each, and a batch of retired Humvees was auctioned at a price of $10,000 the year before last.

That's why Cai Hongming thinks if Leonid is crazy. 100,000 US dollars, RMB is 657,400 yuan, with this money can not buy any off-road vehicle, but also buy this second-hand Humvee. You must know that Hummer has now been discontinued, and it is not clear whether the bad parts of the car will be available in the future. Besides, this car is still a well-known gas guzzler, and you may not be able to afford this gas if you have the money to buy a car.

However, in line with the mentality of Chinese people who have money and don't make money, Cai Hongming is a little hesitant.

100,000 US dollars into RMB is about 660,000, and it is impossible to buy a Hummer off-road vehicle like this in China without a million, and his price is still negotiable.

"Eighty thousand, I can only get eighty thousand at most for a car, if you think you can do it, we will make a deal."

"Too little, Hong, it's going to make me jump off the building." Leonid shouted.

Your dad, where did this Russian come from, he even knows about jumping off a building. Hearing him say this, Cai Hongming wondered if he was pressing the price too hard, and whether he should mention it again. At this time, Leonid said "deal" in his ears. Your mother seems to have been tricked.

"I want a new car." Cai Hongming said in shame.

"No problem at all." Leonid didn't care at all, there are things like this kind of car depots, even if there are no ones in the east, there are them in the west, and the Yankees have a lot of things.

Since you decided to buy it, it's useless to be annoyed, to clean up your mood, Cai Hongming said: "Then you send me five." After speaking, he suddenly remembered something and quickly took out his mobile phone. There is no signal here. But he has the picture he wants on his phone. He enlarged the picture and said to Leonid: "Look at this car, the ultra-luxury armored off-road vehicle made by Conquest Vehicles, a Toronto-based car manufacturer, Knight XV, which costs $695,000 abroad, and if you can get it, I'll give you $900,000." If the formalities are complete, add an additional $50,000. ”

"Wow," Leonid's eyes lit up.

Don't look at the high price of the servers sold now, in fact, he doesn't get much by himself. But if he can get this car, he can earn 250,000 US dollars by changing hands, and the money from the sale of those military Humvees is worth his income for several years. You must know that the Russian economy is not in a recession now, and this money is enough for him to spend for a long time. Besides, it may end up with more than just that much money.

"Deal, dear Hong, you are truly my God. Don't worry, I'm going to get you this damn car. What's this thing called, KnightXV XV, I've made a note of it, I'm sure I'll get it for you. "In the face of money, Leonid was almost incoherent.

“OK”

Qi Diao Ji Shao came out of the inspection server from inside, and gestured to Cai Hongming, indicating that everything was normal.

Cai Hongming nodded, and asked Ji Dong to take the 20 million that had already been exchanged for US dollars. Paying the money with one hand and delivering the goods with the other, Leonid was very happy and gave the big truck to Cai Hongming, even if he didn't give it, there was no place to put a lot of things on it.

After a few clicks on the money, Leonid came over with a smile and said, "Dear Hong, happy cooperation." ”

Whenever he heard him say that he loved two people, Cai Hongming felt a creepy feeling. Your mother, he's straight.

Before leaving, Cai Hongming remembered one more thing, so he pulled Leonid aside and whispered. Ji Dong didn't know what Cai Hongming said to him, but they saw Leonid patting his chest vigorously over there, as if to mean something.

The deal was completed and both parties left quickly.

When they went back, Cai Hongming and the others did not start from the original road, but took a detour before returning to the farm. The ruts left behind will be covered with yellow sand blown by the evening breeze, and by tomorrow no one will know what happened here. (To be continued.) )
