Chapter 0688 - Black Market (3)
In the middle of the night, Ilham left the airport black market with Satari. They left an order worth hundreds of millions of dollars, and paid more than $2 million in cash on the spot to take away a batch of mechanical and electrical products.
There are all kinds of goods, not all of which are related to 'Tomcats', but some of them are industrial equipment. The sources of equipment are also complex, ranging from high-end goods from Western Europe to bargains from Eastern Europe, as well as fashionable luxury goods produced in Japan and South Korea.
After the collapse of the Warsaw Pact, there was a large and small black market in Eastern Europe. But there is no black market that can compete with Boryspil Airport.
Because it can be transported by air, it avoids the hassle of land and sea transportation, and quickly delivers goods to their destination.
The Il-76 has a range of more than 4,000 kilometers, even with a heavy load of 40 tons. If you refuel halfway, it can fly to most of Europe, Asia and Africa.
As long as they avoid NATO blockade surveillance, the airport black market can transport goods to every corner of the world.
Persia bought a lot of goods, and after paying some freight, the Maozi pilot of 'Holy Light Airlines' took off overnight and flew over the Black Sea within a few hours to reach its destination Tehran.
It was quick and convenient to send Satari back with him.
What makes it so efficient is that it matters......
"This damn place is rotting too fast." Marcos stands on the upper floors of the airport terminal, looking out of a glass window at the runway.
This military airport has never been busier, with flights taking off and landing non-stop at night.
There is a dedicated air traffic control team in the terminal. Talents from all over the alliance gather here, on duty 24 hours a day, to provide professional services.
It was only at this moment that Marcos truly believed that the collapse of the alliance was inevitable. Because when he approached the intellectuals in Kiev in the hope of semi-official recognition, the intellectuals, who had been converted from alliance officials, immediately agreed.
The public knew that life was good in the past. Their food, drink, Lazar, food, clothing, shelter and transportation, everything is officially responsible. They are hospitalized, their children go to school, and their daily lives are far beyond ordinary people.
This class is an out-and-out aristocracy, openly lying on the state and sucking blood. Even if the alliance dissolves, the public still needs privileges, and even craves them.
It is known that someone needs to help launder money, help to liquidate, help sell stolen goods, help turn power into visible benefits, and need a gray place to do something that is inconvenient to do in person.
The desire is hard to fill, the powerful will never be satisfied, and the secret collusion will never stop.
Zhou Qingfeng took Boryspil Airport and declared it a 'peaceful zone'. Anyone can come, and as long as basic protocols are followed, the armed guards at the airport will protect the 'customers' with tanks and armored vehicles.
It's a place of filth. It is like a piece of carrion, a dung pit, a mire, attracting a large swarm of green-headed flies to buzz and facilitate all kinds of things that cannot be seen.
As long as the price is negotiable, and the principle of "you and me" is followed, any goods and services can be bought and sold here - Zhou Qingfeng does not make any restrictions, but gives protection.
Marcos enacted his own laws on the black market, set up arbitration tribunals, hired specialized lawyers and prosecutors, provided basic legal services to those who were lawless, and reconciled the conflicts that arose in the black market.
Boryspil has developed a unique social atmosphere for this. It has its own governing body, simple but effective laws, and a full range of services.
It didn't take much publicity for the airport's reputation as a black market to spread quickly. Even Zhou Qingfeng didn't expect how much impact his inadvertent attempt would have.
The disintegration of the alliance has crushed many people's ideals and obsessions, and the power of the Ermao family has been torn apart by the 'nuclear bomb crisis'.
No single power can control the whole country. Even if there were, it would be opposed by other forces.
The ambitions of countless people have been aroused, and in the name of freedom, they are desperate to acquire the wealth that was previously unimaginable. The country is latinoizing, and grass kings are rising.
Among these grass kings, the powerful and organized ones need Zhou Qingfeng to negotiate in person. For example, in the Zaporozhye region, where the Madasich company is located.
Didn't the Madasich Company know that 'Holy Light' was sanctioned by Eagle Sauce?
Aware.
But this company has no business in the West, and Europe and the United States do not need their 'backward' products at all. Therefore, the 'Holy Light' who is willing to pay has become the only choice.
As for weak organizations and individuals, they can also find their own way of survival in the black market. It's dark here, but it's evil and orderly, and it's better than chaos.
Standing on the upper floors of the terminal, Marcos looked at the transport planes taking off. Behind him, the beautiful female secretaries were always at their disposal.
Outside the office, accounting, finance, communications, security, etc., hundreds of professionals work day and night. Inside and outside the airport, hundreds of heavily armed League veterans were recruited to protect the black market's growth.
Because Zhou Qingfeng can always provide some unique goods, so as to create a cluster effect. Only a month after the opening of the black market, the amount of money generated here has exceeded 10 million US dollars, and even the merchants of the Persian North Stick have begun to run here.
Smaller, illegal traders who need a safe place to trade will choose to come here – after all, 'black eats black' is all too common.
Any transaction is subject to a 30 percent 'black market tax,' which alone makes the black market a gross profit of $3 million — only $1 or 200 a month to hire a hard-working soldier.
This is only the first month.
The 'Holy Light' uses the airport black market as its control hub to penetrate into the entire territory of Ermao, and then there will inevitably be more and more goods and funds, and the profits earned will also be higher and higher. Marcos is very confident in the development of this place.
On the other hand, Ilham, who had just completed the deal, boarded the Il-76 and followed Satari back to Tehran. When the transport plane landed, there were troops on the ground to pick up the cargo.
In addition to a batch of avionics, the most important thing is a TF-30 turbofan engine with all identifications erased.
However, these goods are only more than two tons, and in order to prevent the huge transport plane from running in vain, more than 40 tons of other goods are stuffed in the cabin.
These are the big heads.
While the army was transporting goods, Ilham hurriedly called his friends in Tehran from the airport's phone. He hunched over excitedly, covered the microphone, and shouted on the phone in a cheerful tone:
"2,000 VCRs, 200 big-screen TVs, and tens of thousands of videotapes. It's all the latest Western movies, absolutely good-looking, especially good. ”
"Really?!"
Screams of ecstasy came from the phone.
"Ilham, good brother, good friend. I knew you were going to get rich. You've never gotten such good stuff? These are the best sellers, but they are all contraband. ”
"Leave it alone, I'm at the airport. You can find a few cars right away, I have a large and reliable supply this time, and I can definitely make a lot of money. By the way, I only accept US dollars. ”
