Chapter 387: Arms Deal

Just when Fang Lang was happy that his company's laboratory had successfully manufactured the Z-4 electronic computer, he began to think about how to lay out the upcoming European revival plan.

Ji Wanchang, who was far away in the United States, also met with the arms supplier that Fang Lang had introduced to him.

The other party is a white fat man who looks to weigh more than two hundred pounds, with a beard on his meaty face, and a bulging belly, as long as he looks at it, it makes people think that this guy is not a good person.

There were also a few strong men who looked like little brothers behind him, and just by looking at Ji Wanchang, he felt that this guy was more to the underworld than to the arms dealers.

However, since he was introduced by Fang Lang, he has already come to the United States, and he must be in contact with it.

"Mr. Simmons, it's a pleasure to meet you!"

Regarding the white fat man in front of him who didn't look too easy to mess with, Ji Wanchang tried his best to make himself not so harmless.

After all, I came here to buy and sell, not to find trouble, so there is no need to conflict with the other party.

Simmons, on the other hand, looked at the lean middle-aged Chinese in front of him with some surprise, he was a distributor of Shata Company on the East Coast, and he was actually not much different from the salesman under Shata Company.

At the beginning, he was a salesman of Shata Company, and in order to make money, Simmons thought of many ways, as a person born in the bottom of the poor, and did not have a deep political background and foreign background.

In Shata, there are a lot of salesmen like him, and in order to complete the performance, most of them go to those less developed countries and go directly to governments to sell weapons and equipment.

At first, he followed the same routine and went to some Asian and African countries to sell his products.

However, he soon discovered that these governments were either colonies of certain countries, or puppets supported by certain big powers, and that they wanted to buy arms from those big powers, and would not buy them from private individuals like him at all.

Not even if it's an American company.

Therefore, he soon began to change his mind, looking for some guerrillas and rebels who opposed the government, and even those in Asian and African countries who were seeking independence.

Selling his weapons and equipment to them, this path was obviously possible, so soon his performance began to improve by leaps and bounds.

It has a lot of fame in many places.

But again, because of his behavior, many traditional European colonial countries were dissatisfied, especially when he contacted King Indris in Libya and sold weapons and equipment to the other side in large quantities.

It gave the other side the courage to say no to the British and French colonizers, and now Libya is in a period of political turmoil, and King Indris is seeking independence.

This made Simmons hang in the eyes of the British and French governments, and neither the US government nor the Shata Company could stand up for Simmons for this.

Therefore, Simmons had to pay extra attention to his personal safety, and the little brothers who were now with him were actually the bodyguards he hired.

Fortunately, because of his outstanding performance, Shata Company did not treat him badly.

He was allowed to open a foreign trade company independently, became his own boss, and became one of the largest distributors of Shata Company.

Of course, this is also a means for Shata to avoid political risks.

After all, after Shata Company sold the arms to Simmons, it was none of Simmons' business to sell them to anyone.

This is all too common.

And Simmons will not refuse such a request, after all, if he sets up a company alone, he can get the goods from Shata Company at a lower price, and after selling it, he can make a higher profit.

The reason why Simmons looked at Ji Wanchang in front of him in surprise was mainly because Ji Wanchang directly called his home to ask him for arms.

You must know that Simmons knows very well that the business he does is very offensive to people, and now he is a registered figure everywhere in the British and French governments, and he will find a killer that day.

So, he is very careful about his own safety, and there are very few people who can know where his family lives.

And his arms business is negotiated in the company, and even if someone needs to contact him, they will always send a telegram to his company or call his company's phone.

But Ji Wanchang didn't know where to get his home phone, which made Simmons startled.

Therefore, he was very jealous of Ji Wanchang.

At first, he was afraid that the other party would buy arms from him, whether it would be a trap set for him by the enemy.

After many temptations, it was finally determined that Ji Wanchang was indeed here to purchase arms, not for his life.

Therefore, of course, when I saw Ji Wanchang for the first time, I would be very surprised.

After seeing Ji Wanchang's attitude, he also breathed a long sigh of relief, laughed and stepped forward to hold Ji Wanchang's hand, and gave the other party a big hug and said:

"Haha...... You must be Boss Ji, welcome to New York. ”

With that, he led the other party to the reception area of the office.

The meeting place between the two was Simmons' office in New York, which is also an office that Simmons rented in the bustling downtown of New York for security reasons.

After all, this kind of place is full of police, and even if someone wants to attack him, you have to consider whether it will cause bad consequences.

For a mysterious customer like Ji Wanchang, Simmons has to be careful.

The two sat in the reception area, and the younger brothers stood behind them, no matter how you look at it, this is a typical underworld negotiation.

Fortunately, Ji Wanchang was originally the master of Hongmen Hall, and he was used to this situation, so there was nothing unsuitable.

Now, after Fang Lang's guidance, he no longer thinks about obtaining the support of the US government by purchasing arms from the United States. It's just a simple arms procurement business.

The other party behaves like an underworld, and he doesn't mind, as long as the other party doesn't eat black, and can really provide the arms he wants.

Therefore, he directly took out the list of weapons arranged for him by Fang Lang from his arms, put it on the table, and pushed Simmons in front of him:

"Mr. Simmons, this is the list of goods I want, you can help see if you can provide it."

Originally, Simmons was shocked when he saw the other party put his hand into his arms, and he was relieved when he saw that the other party took out only a list.

After listening to the other party's question, he was not polite, and picked up the other party's list from the table and read it.

Just one glance, his eyes lit up.

This is not a small business!

Although he was very curious about the other party's origin, the other party was able to easily find his home phone, which was obviously not a simple character.

Therefore, he didn't dare to inquire into the details of the other party, but the other party casually threw out such a large purchase list, which still made his eyes shine.

Hearing the other party ask if he could provide it, he became a little strange again. After all, anyone who knows the business knows that behind him is the Shata Company, not to mention the light weapons in the list that Ji Wanchang took out.

As long as you can afford it, he can provide even large equipment such as tanks, planes, and warships.

"Haha...... Boss Ji, it's a joke.

As far as the gear on your list is concerned, it's a small thing for us. If necessary, I can take you to the warehouse to pick up the goods right now. ”

As soon as he heard this, Ji Wanchang couldn't help but feel relieved, it seems that the supplier provided by Mr. Fang is really very powerful.

Originally, seeing that the other party looked like a gang member like himself, he thought that the other party could only sell small weapons in a small fight. But now the other party's confident performance really put him at ease.

However, after talking with Fang Lang, Ji Wanchang became a lot more cautious, and he now had a concern, that is, how to transport so many weapons and equipment to Malaya.

You must know that the British are not blind and deaf, and it is not easy for such a large amount of weapons and equipment to go ashore in Malaya without attracting their attention.

So, after pondering for a while, he said:

"Mr. Simmons, I don't know how to calculate the cost of this shipment to the place we designated?"

Doing an arms business is originally responsible for transportation, which is very troublesome for Ji Wanchang, but it is not a problem for Simmons at all.

As long as you can afford it, it's no problem to ask him to help you get to the door of the White House now.

Seeing Ji Wanchang's attitude, Simmons was completely relieved, the other party should not have come to kill him, after all, the attitude shown by the other party was indeed to find a customer who wanted to purchase arms for himself.

And it's a very high-quality customer, because it looks like it's the first time they've made this kind of transaction.

Now I just don't know what the other party's economic strength is.

Hearing Ji Wanchang ask about the price, Simmons beckoned to a younger brother behind him, signaling the other party to come over and carefully calculate the price of the goods.

smiled and said to Ji Wanchang:

"Boss Ji, please wait a moment, let's calculate the price of the goods first. Please also tell me where your goods are destined so that I can tell you what the overall price is. ”

Seeing that the other party asked about his specific destination, Ji Wanchang hesitated a little, after all, once he said his destination, the other party must know what his purpose was.

But on his own, he was not sure that such a large batch of goods would be quietly transported to his destination without being discovered by the British.

Simmons knew what the other party was scrupling about by looking at the other party's expression.

Now he was more relieved, looked at the other party's appearance, and smiled:

"Boss Ji, please rest assured!

Although I don't know through who you know about me, however, I have to say that your energy is very powerful.

I don't want to offend someone with such power, and I don't want to get to know you.

But since it's business, whether you want to or not, I'll have a rough guess about your destination.

So, you don't have to worry about me divulging my clients' information, and keeping my clients' confidentiality is a basic principle of my Simmons business.

And, even if you don't say it, I can have a rough guess, after all, your skin color and appearance can tell a lot of questions, don't you? ”

Simmons's words can be regarded as very frank.

When Ji Wanchang heard it, he also knew that what the other party said was very reasonable, after all, his Chinese appearance was really conspicuous, and there was no point in trying to hide it.

Moreover, the other party is an arms seller introduced by Fang Lang, and he also has a basic trust in the other party.

So, after a deep groan, he slowly spoke:

"You're right, I'm a gentleman with the heart of a villain!

I'm sure you can tell that I'm Asian and my cargo is destined for Malaya, so I wonder if Mr. Simmons can help me deliver the goods directly to my designated location in Malaya. ”

Simmons' eyes lit up when he heard this, Malaya is the market he wants to open up! Unexpectedly, before he passed, someone from there had already taken the initiative to come to the door.

This is a big surprise, as for Malaya is a colony of the British, so what does it matter to him Simmons, the British will not take care of his business, and they will not give him money to earn.

Moreover, he sold to the hostile forces of Britain and France in Africa for an unknown amount of arms.

Are you afraid to sell a little more in Southeast Asia?

In fact, this is also the reason why Fang Lang introduced Simmons to Ji Wanchang.

Because, as long as this guy has money to earn, he doesn't care who the buyers of arms are or who he is ready to go to war with.

"Haha...... Mr. Ji is refreshing.

Home delivery is one of our company services, as long as you can afford to pay for it, not to say that it will be delivered to Malaya, even if it is delivered to the door of Buckingham Palace in the UK.

I don't know, do you have any requirements for the arrival time? ”

Ji Wanchang secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the other party's words, it seems that the other party's strength is really not to be underestimated!

But that's fine, since the other party can say about the delivery without any scruples, you must have this ability.

When he heard the other party ask if there was a requirement for the arrival time, Ji Wanchang was stunned again, what did he mean? Is it too far away and the delivery time is relatively long, or is the freight different when the goods arrive at different times?

Can the other party still be able to directly air freight?

looked up at the other party in some surprise, but still stubbornly said:

"The sooner the better, of course!"

Hearing this, Simmons nodded with a smile and said:

"No problem, it just so happens that Malaya is very close to the Philippines, and the quantity of goods you want is not much, I can find a way to transfer goods from the Philippines for you.

When the time comes, you give me a specific address, and I will have people deliver it directly to your door! ”

At this time, the younger brother who was in charge of calculating the amount came to Simmons with a folder and handed the folder to Simmons, who took it casually, opened it and looked at it.

That's a lot of business!

After thinking about it, Simmons said directly:

"Boss Ji, this is our first time doing business, and I don't make much money from you, plus the shipping cost, you will be 100,000 US dollars in total, what do you think?"

Ji Wanchang was shocked when he heard this, this price was really beyond his expectations, originally he planned to purchase equipment for two thousand people, but after communicating with Fang Lang, the equipment in this list was enough to arm three thousand people.

And he only brought 100 kilograms of gold, and in Brazil, Xinshui took him to the bank to exchange it for dollars, which was a full 123,500 dollars.

Originally, he was worried that the amount of equipment had increased, and now he had to add freight, and it would take about $150,000 to be enough.

Unexpectedly, the other party calculated for a while, and the freight was only 100,000 US dollars. There is still a remnant of the $120,000 that I brought with me.

It seems that the money to recruit American veterans is enough.

It seems that the arms dealer introduced to him by Fang Lang is really a high-quality arms dealer!

What's even worse is that the other party casually said that he wanted to transfer goods from the Philippines.

Where in the Philippines would there be so many arms!

As long as you have a little brain, you can quickly think of where the other party is going to allocate arms for yourself.
