Chapter 127: Purchase of Arms

Chapter 127 Purchase of Arms

Cao Ting saw a big tyrant that she finally met, and she was very helpless to pass by herself like this. I had to send a very disappointed expression: Okay then!

Thinking of Shanghai, Zhao Kang suddenly wanted to go abroad. I heard that many countries have very lax arms controls. It's not like in China, I can't wait to buy a kitchen knife and have to have real-name certification. Maybe if you go to that kind of place, you can get some modern weapons and equipment that are a little stronger, and the combat effectiveness of the Eighth Route Army under your command will be raised to a higher level.

However, as a minor, it is also very troublesome to want to travel abroad. However, because he has made too much money in the past year or so, he opened his own company, and in a short period of time, the Zhao family in Le'an Township, Tuob County, has become the richest man in the township.

His son is so capable, how could Zhao Kang's parents not support his career? Just mentioned it to his parents, and the two honest old men followed their son to apply for passports. Although visas are a hassle, as long as you have money, everything is handled by a professional business company.

Of course, as authentic farmers and standard illiterate, they didn't know what the country called Iraq that Zhao Kang was going to was like. However, according to the stills of New York, London, Paris and other cities seen on TV, it is speculated that Baghdad mentioned by Zhao Kang should also be a city full of birds, warmth, peace, safety and stability.

After making a phone call to his beloved teacher Ni Lan, he made a two-hour phone call, and with a translator and eight bodyguards hired at a high price, Zhao Kang boarded the CD and flew to Baghdad.

The scene in Baghdad is better than Zhao Kang expected, and it is too much for me. Originally, Zhao Kang thought that Baghdad should be a slum-like place, with houses made of plastic sheeting, wood, and bamboo poles, and groups of refugees squatting on the side of the road wearing only a piece of crotch, waiting for handouts from passers-by. As a result, after arriving, he found that this place was no different from ordinary cities in China, except for the architectural style, pedestrian clothing, and the words on the signboards, Zhao Kang could not find the slightest feeling of war at all.

Because Zhao Kang came to Iraq in the name of Akang Grain, Oil and Mineral Resources Import and Export Trade Co., Ltd. going abroad to look for investment projects, the Iraqi government reception staff was very enthusiastic. The Chinese Embassy in Iraq specially arranged a staff member for Zhao Kang and his party to be a tour guide.

Zhao Kang also lived up to the high expectations of Iraqi officials, and the next day he bought a large piece of wasteland outside Baghdad for $2 million and began hiring locals to build warehouses. But there was no follow-up. After that, he took his bodyguards and translators to the major weapons stores and weapons trading black markets in Baghdad every day, and in just a few days, he bought nearly 1,000 second-hand AK47 assault rifles and Type 56 submachine guns, as well as tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition.

This kind of two-stroke behavior soon attracted the attention of people with a heart. Within a few days, someone came to meet Zhao Kang. Different from Zhao Kang's expectations, what he never expected was that the person who came turned out to be the same as Zhao Kang, also a Chinese.

In Zhao Kang's room, Zhao Kang received the uninvited guest.

The other party was a middle-aged man in his forties, tall and thin. Judging from the analysis of the behavior and actions of the board and the glance, Zhao Kang is very sure that this person must have been a soldier. The person who came spoke was also very direct: "Hello Boss Zhao, the contemptible person's name is Yang Zhigang." My hometown is in Hebei. I heard that Boss Zhao is very interested in weapons and equipment, and I am also engaged in this work, so I want to find out what kind of needs Boss Zhao has. Our company may be able to provide goods that satisfy Boss Zhao. As long as it is a domestic military industry, our company basically has no goods that cannot be obtained. ”

Zhao Kang asked, "You shouldn't have been sent by the government to investigate me, right?" ”

Yang Zhigang smiled: "How is it possible." It's not my turn to investigate. Our company has only briefly investigated Boss Zhao's assets. Boss Zhao, who has enough funds and is interested in weapons, is our company's favorite customer. ”

Zhao Kang said: "That's good, then I'll say it directly." I want a heavy weapon, can you provide it too? ”

Yang Zhigang frowned and asked, "Boss Zhao, what exactly do you mean by heavy weapons?" Bazooka? Gun grenades? Or a heavy machine gun? ”

Zhao Kang said: "Can you get the VT4 main battle tank that we made in China?" I want to buy ten. ”

Yang Zhigang was stunned for a long time, and it took a long time to react: "Boss Zhao, you're not joking, are you?" You are a businessman who does import and export trade, what do you do when you buy a main battle tank? ”

Zhao Kang said unhappily: "What do I buy for, do I have to report to your company?" Can't I buy it and throw it away as a scarecrow in my vegetable patch? ”

Yang Zhigang said: "No, there are still very strict restrictions on the export of high-precision weapons and equipment such as VT4 main battle tanks. ”

Zhao Kang said: "I just said that you can get any equipment, but now why is it cowardly." I just want to buy tanks and heavy artillery. Buy those RPGs, AK47, 56 and a half or something, can I find you? I just bought it at a random weapon store, and the price was higher at the top, and I didn't lack that money anyway. ”

Yang Zhigang frowned and pondered for a while before raising his head and saying, "If Boss Zhao has to buy heavy weapons, I don't know if you are interested in the Type 59 main battle tank and the Type 59 130mm cannon?" ”

Zhao Kang said extremely depressedly: "Type 59? Was it produced in 1959? Can something that has been used for almost 60 years still work? You're not going to cheat me out of my money with a pile of rusty and broken metal, are you? ”

Yang Zhigang explained: "Type 59 is not necessarily produced in 59, but refers to the model that has been finalized or equipped with troops since 59. And those things are by no means broken, even now, these things are absolutely precious to many backward countries. If Boss Zhao needs it, we can also provide you with renovation and modification services. ”

Zhao Kang thought about it, even if it was equipment more than half a century ago, it was definitely no less than a nuclear weapon for the end of the Ming Dynasty. So he asked, "What about the price?" ”

Yang Zhigang said: "The weapons of our motherland have always been a conscience price. The Type 59 tank costs 1.8 million soft sister coins and 8,000 shells, and we can also send you 20,000 rounds of 7.62mm machine gun bullets and 10,000 rounds of 12.7mm machine gun bullets for each Type 59 tank. There are 600,000 Type 59 130mm cannons and 5,000 shells. ”
