Chapter 478: Preparations
As the saying goes, in the face of a powerful state apparatus, whether it is a beggar on the side of the road or a billionaire in a mansion, there is not much difference in nature, they are all the same vulnerable, the same vulnerable. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
The only thing to be thankful for is that Lu Li has a good habit of parking his car in the garage every time he finishes using it, so the camera doesn't capture much content.
After several days, he finally waited for a phone call, a date and address to be exact, and thirty days later, the port of La Guaira, Venezuela, had no other useful information.
There is not even a clear figure on how many tons of rhenium alloy will be required, as if to imply something.
Lu Li is not an idiot, and he can see at a glance that this is actually testing himself, and at the same time showing his strength.
The subtext is, whether it is gold or rhenium alloy, we can eat as much as you can take, but the question is that we can satisfy your appetite, can you satisfy our appetite?
Obviously, this is all about overpowering people.
To take the simplest example, 20 billion is basically an astronomical amount for an individual, and if anyone reaches this level, then he will inevitably occupy a place among the world's richest people, and he will definitely be in the top 30.
But what about the state?
Not to mention the world's first and second most powerful economies, China and the United States, even Ukraine, which is in the midst of war, still has a GDP of more than 195 trillion US dollars.
For a powerful country, $20 billion is nothing more than a few dozen advanced supersonic aircraft, or a heavy aircraft carrier formation.
You must know that this is only the cost, not counting all kinds of supporting facilities, personnel training costs, maintenance costs, fuel costs, losses, etc., not to mention the massive R&D funds invested in the nuclear industry and aerospace industry.
Otherwise, there will not be only a few countries in the world that can afford to raise aircraft carrier formations and have the ability to develop and manufacture fifth-generation fighters.
"Hehe, I'm really underestimated. Since you want to try it, then I'll surprise you......" Lu Li shook his head with a smile, hung up the phone and muttered to himself.
Although he never had the idea of showing his strength, since the other party made a move, he had no choice but to continue.
Without any hesitation, he directly transformed into a white youth to find Helena, and asked the other party to get an excavator within twenty-four hours, and by the way, use the waiting time to overhaul the Magic Hummer, and add an antifreeze system, so as to save the problem in the cold region of the north of the other world.
Of course, the car had already removed the heavy machine gun and Vulcan cannon fixed to the roof before passing through the gate, or Chuck, who was not responsible for modifying the car, would have been scared to death.
In addition to the Hummer, Lu Li selected two Ford pickup trucks in the car dealership for full modification, and planned to take them to another world as logistics vehicles.
After all, this time to participate in the Hunting Moon mission is not around Kempera, but requires a long journey.
Weapons, ammunition, fuel, food, warm clothing, medicines, etc., all had to be carried in full, and one car was not enough to load.
Especially for gas, since the beginning of the use of flamethrowers, the consumption is like running water, a large barrel of gasoline will be consumed in a few battles, fortunately there is a gas station to cover, otherwise this crazy purchase frequency will sooner or later be targeted by law enforcement agencies.
"First...... Sir, are you sure ...... Are you sure you want the best snow tires for all the wheels......? This thing...... Can...... But it's expensive......" Chuck asked, stammering.
I don't know if it's a job relationship, this teenager whose brain was burned out by Ke (Ka) Yin when he was a child, is no longer as shy and shy as before, and his eyes also reveal happiness and confidence from the heart.
Lu Li sat on the chair and nodded with a smile: "Yes, all of them will be used for me with the best spare parts! Money and the like are all minor problems, performance and safety are the most important, understand?"
"Ming...... ......Got it! Rest assured! I ...... I'll be sure to build the best car for you......" Chuck smiled and immediately ran to the warehouse, carrying several brand new Pirelli snow tires and starting to put them on.
As one of the top tyre brands in the world, Pirelli's biggest benefit is its strong grip, which is also the most wear-resistant, with the only drawback being that it is too noisy.
However, when Lu left the car, he was in the wilderness, and he didn't care about the so-called noise at all, and the strong sports performance was enough.
Just as he was dozing off with boredom, Helena, dressed in a white bandeau and miniskirt, walked in through the doorway, followed by a young Latino with tattoos all over her arms.
"How, is it done?" Lu Li asked, raising his head.
"I can only say that half of it is done, and you have to do the remaining half yourself. As she spoke, Helena stroked her long black hair, turned around and waved at the tattooed youth. "Dias, come here, he's my boss, you can make an offer now. ”
The young man known as Díaz looked up and down for a few seconds, and asked with some uncertainty, "You are the mysterious person who kept Helena?"
"Baoyang?!" Lu Li raised his eyebrows in surprise and looked at the girl, wanting the other party to give him an explanation.
Helena's face flushed slightly, and she hurriedly took two steps forward, and explained in a low voice: "Do you remember that you gave me a large sum of money as start-up capital at the beginning? In order to prevent being robbed, I lied to them that you were a very powerful gang boss, and he took a fancy to my beauty, and then paid to raise me. In this way, those with bad intentions will not dare to do it lightly until they find out the details of you. ”
"Okay, I see. Lu Li instantly realized that this was a kind of self-protection for the slum girl, and helplessly pinched his nose to admit it, not only to admit it, but also to play a full set of tricks.
Thinking of this, he pulled Helena into his arms, and while reaching into the skirt and caressing the smooth silk buttocks, he said wryly: "That's right, it's me." Do you have what I need?"
"Yes, we have an eighty percent new Carter excavator in our hands! But it's a little bit wrong, I don't know if you dare to ask for it?" Dias said tentatively, glaring tentatively.
Lu Li deliberately pretended not to care and asked, "Is it stolen goods?"
Dias hesitated for a moment, then replied, "Yes! It's stolen goods!" But don't worry, the machine was found in Orlando, and Miami shouldn't be found yet. If you want, we can give you a discount, the original price of 150,000 US dollars for a large excavator, you only need to pay 100,000 yuan to get it. ”
"Hahahaha! 100,000 is okay with your brain, is it? 150,000 is brand new and legal, but the car you have in your hand is both second-hand and stolen, worth up to 20,000 dollars. Believe me, it's hard to find a buyer willing to bid for construction machinery like this, and I'm your only choice. Otherwise, if it breaks down after a period of time, you will have to sell scrap iron. Lu Li put on the posture of a gang member and directly suppressed the price to the lowest.
Although he is not short of that money, considering the role he plays, it is necessary to bargain hard.
