Chapter 24: Buying Weapons (Asking for Recommendations)
Sosfen had already guessed Ye Feiyu's intentions, but he was still a little surprised by Ye Feiyu's simplicity, the Chinese he knew were relatively restrained, and few were so straightforward.
He smiled, nodded and said, "With us, as long as you have money, it is naturally not a problem to buy some ordinary firearms." I don't know how many weapons Mr. Feizi needs, and what are the requirements? β
Ye Feiyu had already thought about what firearms to buy.
He was going to take this batch of firearms to PE131, where the Indians had just come into contact with arquebuses, and even if they were given complex high-power firearms, they would not be able to use them, and they did not know how to maintain them, so the most suitable ones were those rifles with simple construction.
Among the rifles, the most famous, with a very low failure rate, and the rifle that can be used in all kinds of harsh environments, is the AK47 series.
AK47 assault rifle is the world's most famous assault rifle designed by the Soviet Union Kalashnikov, because of its many characteristics of durability and simple structure, it once became the favorite rifle of soldiers from all over the world, including the United States, once brought to PE131, powerful power and ultra-long range, it can completely crush the Europeans who only have arquebuses!
"I need AK47 assault rifles, more than 300 pieces, and I need to prepare more bullets. In addition, body armor, grenades, sniper rifles, etc. are also planned to be purchased. β
Ye Feiyu hesitated slightly, and then said: "I just saw a modified armored truck in the yard, I don't know if it can be sold?" β
PE131 is extremely backward, it can only be said that it is a budding society, the traffic is extremely inconvenient, there are horses to ride in other places, there are no horses in North America, or horses are extinct at this time, until the Europeans bring horses to North America, Ye Feiyu to PE131, can only rely on walking on both feet, and has planned to buy a vehicle to travel.
Now he has more than 7 million yuan, and plans to buy bicycles, off-road vehicles and trucks, first, to facilitate use in different terrains, and second, to facilitate the transportation of supplies.
It is very strange to collect items in the private space of the space-time instrument, Ye Feiyu now roughly understands that only items that do not exceed his own strength can be directly collected into the private space, if it is beyond the scope of his power, he has to open the space channel, push the goods in, buy a truck, and it is necessary to transport the goods into the private space.
The modified truck he saw, the front cab was obviously modified with bulletproof, and the fuel tank and other places were also welded with steel armor, which looked like good protection, and it was a monster-level behemoth when it drove to PE131, once something hid in the truck cab, it was estimated that no one could hurt him.
Therefore, Ye Feiyu suddenly made such a request.
When Sosfen heard Ye Feiyu's words, he couldn't help but be taken aback.
Three hundred AK47s is by no means a small number, not to mention a large number of bullets. In the international arms market, the price of an AK47 is about 400 US dollars, an ordinary 56 rifle cartridge, a box of 50 rounds is about 50 US dollars, and an AK47 plus 300 rounds of ammunition is counted as 300 AK47s and ammunition is more than 100,000 US dollars!
For a giant bee mercenary group with an income of only 100,000 Essibir a month, which is converted into less than 6,000 US dollars, you can know what more than 100,000 US dollars means to Sosfin!
The poorest country in the world is not just words, here, 100,000 dollars is enough to start a small regional war, or let a 100-man mercenary group fight for you for a year!
What's more, Ye Feiyu also has to buy body armor, grenades, sniper rifles, etc., as well as the most valuable modified armored truck of the giant bee mercenary group!
Seeing that Ye Feiyu was too young, Sosfen felt a little contemptuous in his heart, but then he straightened his attitude and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Feizi, I have already said that here, there is nothing that money can't buy, but are you really sure that you want to buy such a large amount of arms?" That's a $100,000-plus deal! β
Ye Feiyu nodded: "Yes, if I can, I can buy more." β
Sosfen immediately calculated quickly in his heart, this should be an order that can only be obtained by those big mercenary groups or real arms dealers, how could this guy find his own?
He usually has a business of ten eight rifles at most, helping the mercenary group, but, as he said, there is nothing here that cannot be bought with money, it doesn't matter if the giant bee mercenary group can't get so many weapons, other mercenary groups have it, as long as they bring money over, they can bring the weapons back at any time.
This intermediate fee alone is not a small amount, and it is worth the income of the giant bee mercenary group for several months.
Thinking of this, he laughed: "Brother Feizi is refreshing enough, I won't beat around the bush, a seventy-percent new AK47, five hundred dollars, and ten ordinary bullets for one dollar, how many Brother Feizi wants!" That modified truck, although it is the only armored vehicle of our giant bee, with the machine gun on it, if Mr. Feizi asks for it, he can take it for 50,000 dollars! β
Driven by interests, Sosfin's address to Ye Feiyu immediately changed from Mr. to brother, and then said: "These weapons, in Oromia State, I can be responsible for transporting them, but if you want to leave this state, you need to charge another transportation fee." β
His offer was naturally inflated, and he had already budgeted Ye Feiyu's counteroffer.
In fact, Ethiopia has just gone through the war, and a large number of weapons are stored in the hands of civilians, warlords and mercenaries, and the new AK47 in the arms market can be bought for $400 a handful.
The price of arms is mostly reflected in the cost of transportation and access, and the price of buying weapons in person like Ye Feiyu can naturally be much lower.
Ye Feiyu is a layman in the end, he doesn't understand the Tao inside, although he knows that the price offered by Sosfen must be a little wet, but it is similar to what he found on the Internet, he secretly calculated it in his heart, and then nodded and said, "There is no problem." I can ask for up to 500 AK47s, a thousand rounds each, and I want a truck. β
"Still." He changed his words and smiled, "I need to pay with Huaxia coins, and those grenades, body armor and the like are not in high demand, so Mr. Sosfen doesn't want to calculate this amount of money with me." In terms of transportation, Mr. Lausosfinn does not bother. β
Seeing Ye Feiyu's refreshing answer, Sosfen knew at a glance that he didn't understand the market here, and originally planned to pit him, but in the end, when he heard him say that he didn't have to transport it himself, his heart suddenly sank.
What does it mean that a foreigner who comes to Ethiopia to buy weapons without the help of a local person transporting them? Obviously, the other party must have a powerful force or unknown way here, otherwise it would be impossible to transport so many weapons, but for some reason, they would just look for themselves to buy weapons.
It is unwise to offend this man! Southfinn was quick to come to a conclusion. Here, if the other party is angry, it is possible to take out 100,000 US dollars and hire other mercenary groups to destroy the giant bee!
The arms business has always been paid with one hand and delivered with the other, but Sosfen couldn't take out so many weapons at all, so he had to ask Ye Feiyu with a cheeky face for a deposit of one million Huaxia coins, and then immediately sent people to the nearby mercenaries and warlords to buy weapons and ammunition.
The speed of the giant bee mercenary group was very fast, and in just two days, they had prepared all the guns and ammunition that Ye Feiyu wanted, and the number was exactly five hundredβthe upper limit that Ye Feiyu wanted.
Each AK47 and 1,000 rounds of matching ammunition are worth six hundred dollars, and the giant bee can earn more than three hundred dollars, so naturally it can sell as many as it can.
Ye Feiyu has no intention of staying in this strange country for a long time, and he buys weapons without bargaining, but also wants to complete the transaction as soon as possible, and may come here in the future, it is not bad to leave a good impression on Sosfin, anyway, money is not a big problem for Ye Feiyu now, just go to PE131 once, dig some gold and come back, it is a lot of money.
For this batch of arms and that truck, Ye Feiyu paid nearly two million Huaxia coins, and Sosfen couldn't keep his mouth shut with a smile.
Although it is inevitable to make some money for other mercenary groups, the giant bee mercenary group must make a big profit, a full 200,000 US dollars, with this money, the giant bee can hire more veterans, form a larger mercenary group, occupy more territory, and collect more security premiums!
Most of the bullets that Sosfen prepared for Ye Feiyu were 7.62x39 ordinary bullets, with a total weight of 16.3 grams and a total weight of 1.63 kg for 1,000 rounds, which didn't seem like much, but the ammunition weight of five hundred AK47 was a lot, and the ammunition in several wooden boxes added up to nearly two thousand catties, fortunately, there was a truck that could transport Ye Feiyu out.
After getting the weapons and ammunition to be loaded onto the armored truck, Ye Feiyu did not refuse Sosfin's kindness, and asked an old driver of the Giant Bee Mercenary Group to help drive the armored truck to a remote hill and forest near Kazama Village, and by the way, he asked about the situation of the armored truck and the use of the large-caliber machine gun installed on the door of the car truck.
Ye Feiyu didn't get a driver's license, but he learned to drive with Xia Baojia, this modified truck is actually similar to a car, and after a little inquiry, he knows how to drive.
After the old driver of the giant bee mercenary group left, Ye Feiyu observed that there was no one nearby, and then opened the private space passage, and a white vortex similar to a plane passage appeared in front of the truck, and as soon as he stepped on the accelerator, the armored truck full of guns and ammunition drove into the private space.
Originally, Ye Feiyu recorded the space-time coordinates of the Wangniu Mountain air-raid shelter, and he could directly open the plane passage to go back, but to open the channel in this plane, he needed a source crystal, Ye Feiyu was naturally reluctant, and he was also afraid of attracting the attention of others, so he had to take a plane back to China and leave a record of returning to China, so he had to walk to the nearby highway and wait for a while before he saw a small truck appear.
The proficient local language made the truck driver unable to figure out Ye Feiyu's identity, but he didn't dare to pit Ye Feiyu, as long as he had 300 Ethiopians, he would send Ye Feiyu to the city.
Sosfen was afraid of offending Ye Feiyu, so he didn't send someone to follow Ye Feiyu, but he also wanted to know how this mysterious Chinese young man could transport so many weapons, and when the old driver came back and knew where Ye Feiyu parked, he secretly sent someone out to investigate the news, blocking several necessary roads, but no trace of the armored truck that Ye Feiyu bought.
In the end, Sosfen couldn't help it, and quietly sent someone to the woods where the car was parked, the truck was nowhere to be found, and couldn't help but sigh, and even felt that Ye Feiyu was unfathomable, and he could actually transport so many weapons away from his land silently.
In Sosfen's opinion, Ye Feiyu's request for the modified truck was just a trick. Although the truck has been modified with bulletproof, increased power, and is equipped with a machine gun, it is only worth about 20,000 US dollars, which is nothing to a person like Ye Feiyu who often spends millions of dollars to buy weapons.
For the sake of secrecy, the weapon was unloaded and transported away, and then the truck sank into the nearby river, and before he knew it, Sothfen could not find out the whereabouts of the truck, apparently very meticulously.
