Chapter 52: Two Fools and Boldness
Compared with Booker's business principle of being anxious to get rid of the goods and not caring about anything as long as he has the money to pay the bills, he would definitely not dare to trade in such a strange place with so many arms at such a late stage. In a sense, Booker is really a real stupid and bold person, as those foreign bosses in the same industry rumored.
Xu Bin, who is also stupid and bold, is also because he was born a bandit and his courage is not ordinary, and he even dares to buy such a shipload of arms that is enough to shock the local governor. If they are replaced by other rich families, it is estimated that no matter how greedy they are, they will not dare to take on this kind of business that is enough to destroy their families.
A stupid and bold seller, a stupid and bold buyer, completely ignoring the unspoken rules of the business community of Longhua Kingdom, relying solely on their trust in each other, as well as the psychology of one anxious to sell and one anxious to buy. This arms smuggling case, which later shook the business circles of Longhua Kingdom, was completed in this way, which made people laugh and cry.
Hearing Tian Youliang's reminder to slow down and arrive at the destination, Booker, who didn't see the dock there at all, was still curious. I soon saw that two torches appeared on the open ground next to the river, just like the code in Xu Bin's letter to him, shining in a circle!
As the cargo ship slowly approached the river beach, and when he saw that he had reached the limit and could no longer lean to the shore, Xu Bin, who had waded through the water, soon appeared in Booker's sight. Just as Booker was about to ask why he was unloading the cargo in such a place, the soldiers of the Xu family, who had come with Xu Bin, quickly lined up on a temporary bamboo raft next to the cargo ship.
Seeing these soldiers dressed like regular soldiers, Booker seemed to realize that Xu Bin was not a rich kid at all, but a warlord with an army, and the smile on his face was also a little embarrassed. Fortunately, Xu Bin, who stepped on the bamboo raft and came to the cargo ship, saw that the crew on the ship was a little wrong with Booker's face, so he said very seriously: "Booker, do you believe me?" ”
At this time, facing Xu Bin, who was loaded with ammunition, Booker dared to say that he didn't believe it, and said with some hesitation: "Xu, aren't you the son of a businessman?" ”
Xu Bin nodded very seriously and said, "Does this matter?" You just need to know that I care about my friendship with you, and I won't do anything to hurt you or your friends. As long as this batch of goods arrives safely at my site, I will pay you a lot of money. Did you hesitate at this time?
Are you really willing, under the ridicule of your compatriots, to return to the Eagle Nation in disgrace? And you told me that you bought the goods in exchange for your parents' savings. If you return to Eagle Nation without any success, how sad will your parents be? ”
A few questions were thrown, and Booker finally gritted his teeth and said, "Xu, I have to admit that your eloquence is really good." Okay, then I'll trust you once, you can get your soldiers to come up and move the goods. I'll go back with you later, and as long as you promise to pay the full amount, you'll get the most sincere friendship from me Booker. ”
At this time, Booker, who had no choice, also offered to go back with Xu Bin, in fact, he still had a real plan in his heart. That is to purchase such a large amount of arms from Xu Bin's subordinates and Xu Bin. He knows a little about the situation in Longhua, and he knows very well that Xu Bin, who has this ship of arms, should be able to achieve something as long as he doesn't take risks.
If the foreign friend he made in Longhua can really achieve something, it will undoubtedly play a very important role in his continued business and trade between the two countries.
This time he came to Longhua to do business, not because of the poor quality of the arms he brought, nor because the price of his arms was too high. But now the warlords in various parts of Longhua have their own foreign banks and foreign governments that they cooperate with. A newcomer to arms dealers, like him, has no way to break the procurement and trading regulations of those warlords and foreign companies.
If only he could lay a solid foundation of friendship with this young but ambitious Xu Bin. Once Xu Bin can really make some achievements, then he also has a regular business partner in Longhuaguo. This is undoubtedly a very rare opportunity for him and his family.
It was this desperate gamble that made him decide to find out who this bold partner was no matter what. This has a non-negligible role in whether he can continue to cooperate with Xu Bin in the future.
As Booker was stupid and bold again, the boxes of munitions that had been piled up on the ship for a long time, and the soldiers of the Xu family army who were standing on the bamboo raft, were transferred to the transport vehicles docked on the shore one by one. When Zuihou's box of bullets was loaded and unloaded, he looked at the crew on the ship, who looked a little frightened.
Xu Bin suddenly took out a 1,000 yuan Longyang bill of exchange from his hand and said, "This money is my lucky money for everyone, and I also hope that you will forget about the night." You don't have to go back to the City of Heroes, just go back to your territory. It's okay for you to act as if it never happened today? ”
The captain, who was also from Longhua, looked at the Longyang bill of exchange handed over, and said very seriously: "Don't worry, we are just delivering the ship." As for who you are, we won't talk nonsense. I understand what you mean, and when you leave, I'll leave and go back to Nanbin. As for other people's inquiries, I will also act as if nothing happened. ”
Seeing that this captain was so knowledgeable, Xu Bin didn't say anything, and said with a smile to the captain: "Maybe we will have a chance to meet in the future!" Time is urgent, so I won't talk to you more. As for this foreign devil, you don't have to worry, I won't hurt him.
In a few days, he will be able to return to the Eagle Nation with a large sum of money. So, when someone asks about his whereabouts, you tell him that he has rented another boat and doesn't know where to go. ”
The captain nodded, "Understood!" ”
Xu Bin, who took Booker off the cargo ship, looked at the Haode convoy that had been tied, and began to rush in the direction of the cottage with a wave of his hand. Because of the night driving and the large number of munitions, the cattle and horses walked a little slowly. It wasn't until near the early hours of the morning that the convoy finally arrived at the foot of the cottage.
Xu Yizhong, who had not slept all night and was waiting for Xu Bin and others to return, when he heard that Xu Bin and others had returned, he also hurriedly called all the bandits from the logistics department to help carry the boxes of arms up the mountain at the bottom of the mountain.
As a truckload of arms was carried up the mountain, a room full of munitions was already piled up in the entire arms warehouse of Heifeng Village. After ordering these soldiers who had been fortunate all night to take a day off and return to the camp to rest today, Xu Bin took his second uncle and Booker to count the batch of munitions and equipment that were enough to equip a division according to the agreement reached at that time.
Looking at these second-hand equipment, most of them are very well-maintained German equipment, and the second uncle who is distressed about money also knows that these are all good things that are difficult to buy with money. Therefore, when I saw these mountains of munitions, the whole person seemed very happy.
When they got to the box with heavy machine guns and looked at this kind of big killing weapon that even the Orange City security camp couldn't equip, Li Chengbing and Wang Erscar were undoubtedly the happiest group of people. With this kind of heavy machine gun, which is said to be able to be used as a single man, those officers and soldiers in the city, if they dare to come over and touch the mold, they will definitely let him taste what it means to be bleeding.
As for Zuihou's ten mortars, the two company commanders who only heard about the Linzhou Security Regiment were equipped with two outdated infantry guns, and they even imagined the scene of an attack with the State Security Regiment in the future. As for Zuihou's hundreds of submachine guns, the two people who don't know the actual role of this submachine gun also understand that this gun should be good.
Looking at these weapons that had been counted, Xu Bin knew that what he needed to do next was to find soldiers to use these weapons as soon as possible. If these weapons are not used as they should, they will be nothing more than a pile of scrap metal in this warehouse.
When Zuihou's five-box pistol box was opened, the bandits' favorite was this kind of box cannon pinned to the body but with very powerful firepower. The three company commanders, who had just been given a meter pistol, offered to get one more of these box guns.
In this regard, Xu Bin did not refuse, and took out three brand-new box cannons from them on the spot and handed them to the three company commanders of Brother Lehe. Even Tian Youliang and others, who accompanied Xu Bin on his trip this time, were sent one by one person. In this way, almost all of them, who are themselves armed with box guns, have two pistols in their hands!
The weapons carried up the mountain are very correct with the numbers Booker said in the western restaurant, in order to appease the somewhat sleepy Booker. Xu Bin asked Li Chengbing to strengthen the defense of the arsenal, and then took him to the second uncle's room, where the money had been prepared.
Looking at the boxes of dragon oceans, and the gold and silver that shone with golden light, although Booker didn't count how many. But he knew more or less that this equally bold friend of Longhua Country had no intention of swallowing goods and killing people.
Seeing that Qian was also much more down-to-earth, but in the face of these Long Yang, who one person couldn't take away at all, Booker had a headache for the first time because of the money. Fortunately, Xu Bin knew what Booker was worried about, and said happily: "Booker, if you don't mind, I hope you can rest in my territory for a few days, I believe we will find a lot of common language." In addition, it is inconvenient for you to walk with so much cash, and there are many criminals who have killed people and robbed money in Longhua Kingdom in recent years.
So, after today, I'll ask my uncle to help you convert all this money into money orders. At that time, you can take these bills of exchange and go to any bank in the Eagle Country in Longhua Country to exchange them for the funds you need.
It's also more convenient for you, not to mention that I still need you to help me do a few favors, because I still have some goods that I need your help to procure. Of course, I won't let you suffer in vain, and I will give you a commission of 10% for all the materials purchased for me in your name. How is it? ”
Hearing that there was money to be made, Booker naturally wouldn't mind. What's more, after understanding this, he found that Xu Bin was very likely to be the rebel of this Longhua country. Then the things that Xu Bin needs him to procure are likely to be sensitive equipment that is subject to government control. Although these things are sensitive to Xu Bin, they are not sensitive to Booker, a foreigner.
For this reason, Booker, who knows that after the purchase of these materials, one percent of the profits are also a lot. It is also necessary to purchase some Longhua-specific materials in Longhua and then ship them back to Eagle Country for sale. Therefore, staying here for a few more days is not an unacceptable problem for him.
What's more, judging from the sincerity Xu Bin is showing now, he is clearly worried that the situation of black eating black will not happen. Since there is no danger to his life and he may make more money, Booker is also happy to follow Xu Bin's arrangement. After asking Xu Bin to find a place to rest for him, he calmly got into the quilt and fell asleep.
