At 4 p.m. on June 6, 1977, we discussed the transaction with Wu Renyi, and returned to the hotel room, where the eight of us had a meeting.

I informed you about going to the Golden Triangle tomorrow to cooperate with the negotiations, and arranged for Gutrau and Gille to maintain the vehicle and fill it with fuel.

Xiaoda and Li Xiaohu went to the front desk to check out, and the others began to pack their luggage and belongings.

After everyone finished their work, Xiaoda and I went to the hotel grass to talk.

Xiaoda said: "Ah Cai! Have you thought about it, will we offend anyone by doing this business?! ”

I said, "Alas! Doing business is an exchange of interests, and there must be some people who think that this business is very fair, and some people think that this business is not fair! Therefore, doing business is sure to offend some people! But how can we know who we will offend in the future before we do business?! Of course, the Continental Secret Service Headquarters may blame us for not informing them of this transaction! However, this matter has no direct interest relationship with the mainland, right?! In addition, we can't contact them immediately, so I think we should report to them in Yangcheng after we return to Hong Kong City! ”

......

Early in the morning of June 7, when we got up, the eight of us carried our luggage, belongings, and prepared dry food and water to the field vehicle.

After everyone checked their luggage and belongings, and there was nothing missing, we checked out and settled and evacuated the hotel.

After all of us got into our off-road vehicle in the hotel parking lot with our luggage and belongings, we drove to the Queen's Hotel parking lot.

At 8 a.m. we arrived at the Queen's Hotel parking lot.

Wu Renyi and Zheng Yongmou took an ordinary high-end car to open the road in front, our field vehicle was in the back, and Liu Weibing and seven or eight other armed plainclothes were in a commercial vehicle to be responsible for cutting off the rear.

With that, our convoy left the parking lot and headed for the Golden Triangle.

Gutrau was in charge of driving, and he told me that we had to walk more than 600 kilometers to get there, and because the road was not easy to walk, it would take almost 10 hours on the road and it would take 8 p.m. to get there.

Therefore, Guttlau and Miller took turns driving, and the others got in the car and went to sleep.

In the car, I took out the "Trader's Workbook" and other trader's learning materials from my briefcase and read them, and I thought that I should understand and master the rules and trading procedures of such transactions as soon as possible. If I am a layman who doesn't know anything about trading in this regard, Wu Renyi and other trading veterans will definitely not trust me.

......

At 12 noon, we stopped at a restaurant in a large village to rest and eat.

During the meal, Wu Renyi said to me, "Jack! The people of northern Myanmar arrived at the negotiation site tonight, and tonight, we are going to negotiate! In the car, you sleep more, and when you negotiate with them, you must bring out the best mental state, and we will try to get them all at once tonight! If this kind of thing can't be done as soon as possible, there will be many long nights in the future! ”

I said, "Uncle! You can rest assured! I'm going to do what you want! ”

After we finished eating, we got in the car again and started on our way.

After the car started, I went to sleep again like everyone else.

By this time, our convoy had entered the mountain road, so the car was very bumpy, and I fell asleep unconsciously.

......

At around 8 p.m., three of our vehicles stopped in the parking lot of a brightly lit yard.

We got off the bus to rest and observe the environment, which is a large military barracks, with barbed wire fences and watchtowers, playgrounds, parking lots, office buildings on stilts, barracks and canteens.

The flagpole of the playground here is covered with red flags in the blue sky and the white sun, and in the dim light, many slogans in traditional Chinese characters can be seen written on the walls of the office buildings and barracks.

After we all went to rest and recuperate, Wu Renyi came to me and said, "Jack! You take some urgently needed things out of the car, go to your lodgings to wash up and rest, and you change into your general's clothes! When the negotiation meeting starts, I'll let you know! ”

After explaining the matter, Wu Renyi and Zheng Yongmou went to arrange the venue and receive the negotiators from northern Myanmar!

We took our weapons, luggage, and important belongings, and followed Liu Weibing to the temporary barracks, where the barracks were very simple, and the Datongpu and the eight of us lived in one room.

There are no cabinets in the room, and important items must be carried with you.

There are a lot of mosquitoes in the room, and mosquito coils must be lit to repel mosquitoes!

After everyone washed up and changed into CIA uniforms, we followed Liu Weibing to the barracks canteen to eat.

On the way, Liu Weibing and I walked together.

He said, "Ah Cai! You guys had a good talk, didn't you? ”

I said, "Okay!" There should be results in these two days! ”

He said, "When the time comes, don't forget my share!" ”

I said, "No!" After the deal, I will definitely give you the thing! ”

He said: "Boss Wu told me that after finishing this business, he asked me to go to Kachin State, and he asked me to be there to help him take care of the timber and jade business there, and I was in a hurry to use the money!" ”

I said, "Alas! You're going there, and it's worse than the Golden Triangle! You're going to have to take care of yourself there! ”

He said, "Ah Cai! It's okay! These places are only more than 800 kilometers away from our hometown of Daling Town, and it is quite close to me to go back to Daling Town! I drove home for a day and a night! With money, I can go home often! ”

I said, "Alas! I feel like you're in this kind of place, it's hard to get ahead! You'd better find something serious to do! ”

Liu Weibing smiled and said, "Alas! Now, what serious things are there to do in this world! Didn't you do the CIA too?! ”

Everyone laughed!

After we got to the restaurant and ate some porridge and steamed buns, we went back to the barracks to rest.

11 p.m. Liu Weibing came to call me, Xiaoda and Li Xiaohu to the venue for a meeting.

After we entered the venue, Wu Renyi introduced us to the people of northern Myanmar and at the same time introduced the people of northern Myanmar to us.

Negotiators in northern Myanmar are key figures and experts from all factions of warlords.

After the introduction, the meeting began, which was chaired by Wu Renyi.

Wu Renyi said: "Major General Jack! Please explain to the commanders of the Northern Burma Coalition Army the reasons for your transaction and quotation. ”

I refreshed my spirits and said in English, "Coalition commanders! The Allies took these deals very seriously! Therefore, the Material and Equipment Trading Center of the Allied Headquarters specially sent us here to follow Mr. Wu here to negotiate with you on the three sides of this transaction! We will come up with the best products, the greatest sincerity to trade with you! In terms of products, 80% of the equipment we provide is new in stock, and the rest are 80% new and well-maintained! In terms of equipment consumables and accessories, we will allocate sufficient equipment, and in the distribution of ammunition for various equipment, we will allocate them according to the consumption of the two campaign cycles on the Allied side! At the time of the transaction, the purchaser can conduct a comprehensive technical inspection of the goods! We are responsible for delivering the goods to you according to the route and destination of your goods! According to your purchase list, our quotation is 12 billion US dollars! This quotation is only about one-fifth of the value of our normal external quotation! This offer is a very good price! ”

Then, Wu Renyi and the others took the lead in applauding, and the coalition forces also applauded!

Wu Renyi smiled and said, "Major General Jack! Today, you have been bumpy on the road for more than ten hours, let's let the Allied representatives go and rest first! Governors of Northern Myanmar, let's continue to meet and agree on the details of the deal. ”

Then, Wu Renyi asked Liu Weibing to take the three of us out of the meeting, and they continued the meeting.

When we returned to the barracks, five Thai colleagues were already asleep on the plank beds!

After we put away our briefcases and other items, we also rested on our wooden beds.

......

At 8 a.m. on June 8, we got up and washed up, and we moved all our luggage and belongings to the car.

Everyone eats in the car, and we bring dry food and drinking water.

After breakfast, everyone played cards in the car for entertainment!

It's a mountainous area, so the air outside is very fresh and cool, so it's much more comfortable to stay here than in that stinking and stuffy barracks!

At 10 o'clock in the morning, Liu Weibing came and called me to Wu Renyi's office.

I arrived at Wu Renyi's office, and after he hugged me, we drank tea and talked on the sofa.

Wu Zhengyi smiled and said, "Virtuous nephew! You did well last night! We've got the northern Burmese people done, and now, tell me the details of your deal! ”

I said, "Uncle! According to the regulations, these transactions are not routine transactions, therefore, there is no need to sign a purchase contract! The transaction is carried out in accordance with the prescribed control procedures, and after the two parties to our transaction finalize the purchase list and quotation, a transaction control order is immediately generated in the transaction system of the Allied headquarters! As long as you pay me an advance payment of 10% of the total price of the order, the purchaser can immediately enter the supplier's warehouse and inspect the goods in accordance with the "Purchase List"; After the inspection is completed, after the purchaser pays 50% of the total payment, the supplier begins to prepare and deliver the goods to the purchaser in accordance with the "Purchase List"! The supplier is responsible for the freight within 500 kilometers of land transportation, and the transportation location is determined by you! That's what happened! ”

He said, "Oh! I get it! It's similar to the way you do business underground! So, what are you going to do about bargaining? ”

I said, "Uncle! Are you sure you're going to make this deal?! I can ask General Jefferson right away. ”

He said, "Yes! I'm afraid that if we delay time, they will change their minds! Hurry up and ask Jefferson! ”

So, I left his office and went to my satellite communication laptop in the car.

Xiaoda and Li Xiaohu and I brought our satellite communication laptops to the barracks, and we installed satellite communication laptop equipment on one of the desks in the barracks, and then we started contacting General Jefferson.

After contacting General Jefferson, I reported to him on the progress of the arms deal negotiations between the Burmese and the other side's request for bargaining.

General Jefferson promised me that I could reduce the total price by $8 billion according to this "Purchase List" and make a deal with them, and the delivery location of the deal was in Colonel Gabbert's material base, and Gabbert was responsible for controlling the entire transaction process, and I was responsible for receiving the payment, and then I transferred money through my own trading account to the account of the Allied Headquarters Trading Center. The purpose of such payment is to conceal the relationship between the Allied Headquarters Trading Center and the real purchaser, and to keep the details of the transaction confidential to the outside world!

After my call with Jefferson ended, Xiaoda and Li Xiaohu packed up their computer systems and brought them back to the car.

I went directly to Wu Renyi's office to report to him.

Wu Renyi was very happy after listening to my report.

He smiled and said, "Virtuous nephew! Thank you so much! Rest for me! Your $2 billion! I'll give you an extra $2 billion when I pay you an upfront! I'll do what I say! ”

I said, "According to the trading rules, the buyer's payment can only be credited to the trader's personal account, and then the trader will transfer it to the trading commission account!" That way, no outsiders will know that we're trading! ”

Wu Renyi smiled and said, "Understood! It's your old routine! After lunch, we will return to the Queen Hotel Bangkok! We set up a trading office there, and I immediately asked my people to set up the trading office, arrange for northern Burmese people to participate in the inspection of the traded goods, etc.! ”

Then, we left the office together, I went back to the car to rest, and Wu Renyi went to the negotiation site to explain the transaction arrangement.

Soon after, Liu Weibing informed us to go to the canteen to eat.

The meals were quite hearty, and everyone had a good time.

After lunch, all eight of us went to the field vehicle and turned on the air conditioning to rest!

At around 1 p.m., we were told to return to Bangkok immediately.

Wu Renyi, Zheng Yongmou and Wei Deqin took a sedan to open the road in front, our field vehicle followed closely behind, and two buses behind us were full of acceptance personnel of the Northern Burma Coalition Army, and there were probably more than 100 of them!

The last vehicle of the convoy was Liu Weibing's commercial vehicle, and in this way, our convoy set off in a majestic manner!

After the departure, our convoy went all the way, with only two stops to rest along the way.

......

At 10 o'clock in the evening, our convoy arrived at the parking lot of the Queen Hotel Bangkok.

The hotel has arranged a room for us, me, Xiaoda and Li Xiaohu live in a suite, and Guterau and other five Thai colleagues live in a suite.

After entering the room and putting away our luggage and gear and washing, Xiaoda and I opened our laptops and contacted General Jefferson via satellite phone.

After contacting General Jefferson, I reported to Jefferson that the purchaser had agreed to all the terms of the deal, and that the transaction would begin tomorrow morning, and that a trading office would be set up here.

General Jefferson said, "Good! I immediately informed Garbert that tomorrow at 8:30 they will arrive at your dealing office and they will guide and arrange the whole process of this transaction! Jack! You only need to be responsible for receiving payments and making payments to the trading center at the headquarters, and the control of the transaction process is carried out by Gabert and them, and now, you record the receiving account of the trading center! ”

Then, he gave me a receiving account number, which I recorded.

And just like that, Jefferson and I ended the call, and after Xiaoda and I packed up our computers, we both rested!
