Until Bell Stone was gone for a long time, Alberto. Antonio continued to think about his words.

"What do you mean by gold?"

I thought about it for a long time, Aberto. Antonio never figured it out, so he had to call John. Paulson, one of his financial managers.

"John, that Mr. Zhong said to me just now that gold is very good."

He directly said the question in his heart, "What does this mean, can you help me explain?" ”

"You wait a minute......"

John Sitting in the Elongated Lincoln. Paulson said perfunctorily, then covered his phone and asked Zhong Shi, who was sitting next to him, "Sir, you just told Antonio about gold?" ”

"Hmm!"

Zhong Shi nodded, "This guy is very good, let him follow us to earn a little money, which can be regarded as a reward for his hospitality." ”

"Okay, I got it!"

Paulson didn't ask why, let go of the microphone and said to Antonio, who was waiting, "Since he revealed it to you, then I'll tell you that in the future, you can consider buying a little gold futures, remember it's long, understand?" ”

"Got it, got it!"

Antonio, who had received the confirmed information, nodded like garlic, and his heart was even more joyful, he knew that his efforts had been rewarded.

With this news, Antonio went on to make hundreds of millions of dollars in profits in the gold futures market, which far exceeded the amount he earned from running a casino. So much so that later, he decisively gave up his declining casino career and successfully whitewashed himself.

In 2016, the operating conditions of the entire Atlantic casino reached an extremely deteriorating level, and even came to the verge of bankruptcy, but all this has nothing to do with Antonio. It is precisely because of an inadvertent befriending Zhong Shi. It completely changed his fate.

There are two flowers, one on each branch.

Speaking of Bell Stone, after leaving the casino, he got into an extended Lincoln that had been waiting at the door for a long time, and Paulson was already waiting in the car.

"Mr. Zhong, what's our next trip?"

Since Zhong Shi asked everyone to keep a low profile. Then the most thorough implementation may be Paulson. Every time Zhong Shi came to the United States, he always arranged it for Paulson, and the relationship between the two was the best among everyone, so Paulson did not shy away from asking Zhong Shi about his arrangement.

"Do you know what happened to me when I stayed for so long?"

Zhong Shi smiled slightly, looked at Paulson, and pouted when he saw the inquiring look on the other party's face. Make a surprised expression, "I don't even believe it when I say it, but it happened, it's really funny!" ”

"Uh......"

Seeing Zhong Shi with such a rich expression for the first time, Paulson's curiosity was immediately aroused, "Really? What exactly happened to make you react like this? ”

"Actually, it's nothing!"

Zhong Shi did not answer immediately, but diverted the topic. "That's right, about Blackwater Safety Consulting. How much do you know? ”

"Blackwater?"

Paulson's brows furrowed, "The mercenary company?" But now they don't call it Blackwater, because something happened, so now they're called Academi. ”

"This company is a security outsourcing company, a lackey of the Pentagon, at best a relatively large dog."

I thought about it. Paulson went on to explain to Bell Stone, "Because of their good relationship with the military, and because of their private nature, they have taken on a lot of security tasks that are inconvenient for the U.S. government." Belch...... You can understand it this way, usually the ones in the movie who do things for the government. But once something happens, the government will ignore the people or teams that ignore them, and organize them as a group, which is Blackwater! ”

"What, you have an idea for Blackwater?"

After explaining for a long time, Paulson suddenly realized that Zhong Shi could not ask such a question without purpose, and immediately he asked rhetorically, "Why, sir, are you going to enter the security industry?" ”

"Originally, I wasn't very interested in this, but now that I hear you say that, I'm a little interested!"

Zhong Shi did not deny it, "You also know that I also have a security company under my name, and if the two sides can cooperate in some aspects, it may help my career." ”

"Probably not that, right?"

Paulson was so easy to be deceived, and after rolling his eyes at the moment, he exposed Zhongshi's lie, "There must be other purposes!" He said categorically.

"Then you'll have to use your connections in Washington, and maybe Virginia!"

Zhong Shi did not deny Paulson's conjecture, but after a faint reply, he was no longer willing to say more.

Washington is the political center of the United States, and the Pentagon is in Virginia, since Zhong Shi said so, Paulson also understood, and nodded heavily at the moment.

……

North Carolina, located in the southeastern United States, is one of the original 13 states in the United States and is currently ranked 28th out of 50 states.

Moyok, where Blackwater's headquarters are located. Here, Blackwater has a huge training ground covering more than 7,000 acres. The training ground is the largest private light weapons and tactical training base in the United States, and includes three main areas: indoor, outdoor and urban simulation training. Because the training ground is so large, it spans two counties in North Carolina.

Not only is it a training base for Blackwater's mercenaries, but it also provides weapons and tactical drills for the U.S. military, government law enforcement agencies, and security agencies, and in some cases, even training for what the U.S. defines as "friendly countries."

Because the area was too large, the Blackwater Company in charge of the reception sent a "Little Bird" helicopter to let Zhong Shi and the other three fly directly through the air and visit their training base by the way.

"What are they doing?"

Through the transparent hood, Zhong Shi and the others could see the rows of flat-roofed buildings on the ground, and at the same time, they could also see many people wearing camouflage, walking around frequently, and he asked Land Rover beside him. "This is training?"

"Yes!"

Land Rover shouted loudly through the headphones, "Look at their situation, it seems that they are training for urban street fighting." ”

The driver sitting in front heard the conversation between the two over the radio, and immediately did not leave in a hurry, but circled in this area for a long time, after Zhong Shi and Lu Hu and others looked at it again and again. Only then did he take off.

"What do you think?"

Because there was enough time, Land Rover took in every move of the people who were training on the ground, and after leaving, Zhong Shi asked, "You are an expert in this field, I only see the constant firing, but I don't understand the subtlety of this." ”

"Very professional!"

Despite only a rough look, the Land Rover had to give a thumbs up," he said. The practice of using sticks, chewing gum and mirrors avoids the possibility of getting a local headshot, knowing that in that case, even a little helmet is in mortal danger. In addition, when seizing corners, machine gunners, captains and other shooting positions are also in place, ensuring that the fire of their own side is suppressed, and the rotation of shooters can be guaranteed. ”

"But these may not be for us!"

After talking about his experience for a long time, Land Rover suddenly realized that this was not the time to popularize military knowledge. The moment changed the subject, "For us." These businesses are completely unnecessary. Blackwater has announced that it is no longer actively pursuing private security operations, so the gap left behind is more appropriate for us. ”

"And what about intelligence?"

Zhong Shi couldn't help but ask, "How do we compare with them in this regard?" ”

"There is no possibility of comparison at all!"

Land Rover sighed. "They're very subdivided in terms of security, animals, marine, airborne, transportation, and so on. All of this is inseparable from the support of the intelligence behind it, otherwise you think that with just a few brave mercenaries, you want to show off your military might all over the world? It can be said that among private armed companies, their intelligence system is the most complete and advanced. I am afraid that it is more developed and advanced than the intelligence agencies of some small countries. ”

"You have no doubt about that!" After saying this, Land Rover added.

"What if you're looking into a powerful family?"

Zhong Shi touched his chin and thought for a while, and continued to ask, "A certain political family that is not very big, I suspect that there is something wrong with this family. Of course, it will not be the person in power himself, but his relatives, and it would be better if they could inquire about their family's finances. How, do you think Blackwater can take on this task? ”

"This ......"

Land Rover gradually heard the taste, and hesitated for a while before he swallowed, "Zhong Sheng, isn't it better to find the CIA for this kind of thing?" In terms of professionalism, they are much more professional than the people in Blackwater. ”

"But this is against the elites of a certain country, and the CIA will not intervene because it will destroy the relationship between them!"

Zhong Shi sighed and said helplessly, "Besides, do you think I can move the CIA?" Although we have some kind of relationship with the U.S. government now, it doesn't mean that their government departments will do things for us. ”

"That's ......"

After listening to Zhong Shi's analysis, Land Rover also understood, scratched his head at the moment, and sighed, "I don't know much about this aspect. Let's hope they get to the job right! ”

The helicopter was very fast, and it didn't take long for it to come to a blank plaza where the headquarters of Blackwater Security Consulting was located. It is said to be a building, but in fact it is just a three-story building.

The square is very large, enough to accommodate tens of thousands of people. Except for the fixed area dedicated to helicopter take-off and landing, vehicles can be seen walking everywhere in other areas. Unlike the outside, the vehicles driving here are either Humvees or armored vehicles, all of which are military vehicles.

Disembarking from the helicopter, Bellstone, Land Rover, and Paulson, accompanied by a military-uniformed receptionist, walked slowly toward the building, carefully avoiding passing traffic. The speed of the vehicles here is very fast, and if you are not careful, you are in danger of being hit, so they are extra careful.

But even though I was careful, there was an accident.

A swarthy armored personnel carrier with hideous edges and huge tires rushed towards the four of them in a daze. Except for the tires, there is no smooth curve on the whole body, the front part of the car is composed of dozens of triangular armor, even some of the windows are triangular, and the rear part of the car is a huge trapezoidal space, which combines with the sharp, hideous front of the car to form a monster.

The speed of this troop carrier was very fast, and it rushed directly towards Zhong Shi and the others, and in a hurry, Zhong Shi and the others hurriedly avoided to the side, who didn't want it to change direction, and still rushed towards them. At the moment of the collision, there was a sharp sound of brakes, followed by the smell of burnt tires.

"Gentlemen, welcome to Blackwater!"

The car door opened, and a middle-aged man wearing a beret pulled the car door, suspended in mid-air, looking at Zhong Shi and the others condescendingly, holding a big cigar in his mouth, and said to everyone in a rough voice. (To be continued.) )
