Southwest Arizona is a desert area, where the climate is dry, there is little rain, so there is very little vegetation, at most the development of animal husbandry, planting industry not only faces the problem of water shortage, but also faces the problem of high alkali content of the land.

However, for the storage of aircraft, this climate is very good, dry and rainless, can reduce the speed of the body is corroded, the soil has a high alkali content, the ground is very strong, can make the aircraft easy to store, this place, is simply tailored for aircraft storage.

As a result, Davis-Monson Air Force Base was opened up as an aircraft cemetery to store a variety of aircraft, and the 309th Aviation Maintenance and Reconstruction Group was responsible for the equipment here.

They were responsible for storing and recovering all U.S. warplanes and destroying or repairing them according to the instructions of their superiors, but no one wanted to serve here, and to them it was like a place to send prisoners to exile.

There are no big cities around, the nearest Wal-Mart is a hundred kilometers away, you have to drive a long time to get there, the whole base is in a place where birds don't, and there is not even a woman in the base.

Because there are no women, there is only one type of toilet here: the men's toilet, and it is definitely an ordeal for American GIs to serve here.

Those who are soldiers are reluctant to come, and officers are even more reluctant to come to serve here, and anyone who has a relationship will find a way to avoid this pit, and officers who come back from abroad and cannot be placed can just throw them over.

Anthony is such an unlucky guy, he originally thought that it would be miserable to serve on the old bus, but he didn't expect that after coming back, it was still the same miserable, he stood on the tower, looking at the countless planes below, and his heart was full of loss.

On the side, Old John, an assistant who also came from Lao Ba with him, took the document and gave him a brief introduction to the situation.

"Our base is mainly responsible for storing fighters, according to different needs, these aircraft are divided into four categories, of which Class A is kept in good flight condition and placed in the best hangars, we need engines once a month, if necessary, they can take off for combat within a few hours, and this is the case with the C130 transport aircraft currently mothballed here."

"Class B is to release all the fuel and lubricants, completely mothballed, need to do a lot of preparation, can be back to take-off within a week, here is a batch of F4 fighters is this standard."

"Class C needs to be destroyed, there are hundreds of B-1B and B-52 strategic bombers outside our base, which have been dismantled in eight pieces, these are dismantled according to the provisions of the nuclear disarmament treaty reached between us and Lao Maozi, and satellites will fly over our heads every day to confirm, but in the event of a large-scale war, these planes can be assembled soon."

"Class D is completely dismantled, this is the case with the Tomcat fighters sent over this time, to be honest, I don't understand, these Tomcat fighters can be sealed according to the standards of Class A or Class B, but those guys have to be completely disassembled into parts. What a waste, when the Tomcat fighter was built, eight hundred kilograms of titanium alloy were used for the wing box alone. ”

"This is because the Persians have tomcats in their hands, so they don't want the parts to go to the Persians, so they have to destroy them completely."

"Huh, don't they want to? What's going on with the Persian Gate? Don't let others sell, they sell themselves! ”

Anthony had mixed feelings, yes, they didn't let us sell, but they were selling parts themselves! It's a waste that such a good fighter should be destroyed.

Jingle bells!

At this moment, the telephone rang, old John picked it up, and the voice of the base doorman sounded inside: "Report, there is a driver from Pakistan, who claims to be called Iftihar, and wants to find Mr. Anthony." ”

Iftihar? Anthony's eyes lit up: "Let him in!" ”

Coming here, Anthony was not used to anything, especially the lack of an errand runner, he missed the days when Iftihar was on an errand under him, so he sent a telegram to the past, and Iftihar was also very happy when he heard about it, and came over in a hurry.

"Mr. Anthony, I'm coming!" Iftihar looked at Anthony excitedly.

"Well, it's a good time! In the future, you will be responsible for driving me, even if you join the army, you can get a green card in three years, and there will be no danger, there are Humvees in the base...... It's too boring today, let's go, let's drive to the Walmart supermarket for a visit. ”

The base is a place where birds don't, and they get angry when they see it, and the nearby Walmart can still see a few people of the opposite sex, and if you're lucky, you can find a woman to have a glass of wine, and then ......

When Anthony thought of this, he felt even more restless.

The Humvee is on the road.

"Hurry up, speed up, why are you driving so slowly?" Anthony urged repeatedly.

"Mr. Anthony, I don't know the road, driving in an unfamiliar place, you can't go too fast......"

"Don't worry, there are no other cars in this kind of place. Hasten! ”

Iftihar had just picked up speed and lowered again. A sign appeared at the intersection ahead, with red shading and stop in white capitals.

There are not many traffic lights here, this kind of sign is common at the intersection, and after encountering it, it must be stopped, and then restarted, so that you can better observe the situation of the main road, if you swoop up and have an accident, you will be fully responsible.

"You idiot, we're military vehicles, don't care about those damn signs." Anthony suddenly discovers that Iftihar doesn't work well either.

Fortunately, Iftihar was very obedient, changed his foot from the brake to the accelerator, and at the moment of jumping out of the intersection, a Cadillac suddenly drove from the side.

A sharp brake sounded.

Boom!

The body of the Hummer only shuddered slightly, unless it was a heavy truck, an ordinary sedan impact was nothing to it at all, but for a sedan, it would be nerve-wracking.

The water tank was rotten, snorting hot, the front of the car was deflated, the headlights were broken, but fortunately the body was still intact.

Anthony was dumbfounded, and subconsciously urged: "Hurry up!" ”

If it's at an overseas base, it's a collision, and it's not a big deal to hit someone to death. But this is in the country, even if they are soldiers, they can't do whatever they want, and if they don't do it, there will be big trouble!

But at this moment, Iftihar got out of the car and shouted loudly: "Hey, how did you drive, didn't you see our car coming?" ”

Don't!

Anthony was nervous for a while, do you think this is in Pakistan? This is in the United States, everyone can carry a gun, and we need to stop and give way on this east road, let's come out like this, even if the other party's car hits our body, it is also our full responsibility, you run to mess around, aren't you afraid of biubiu?

And this is no ordinary Cadillac! The car has a boxy shape, with the style of an old car from decades ago, with a yellow body, a black roof, a large trunk, the rear wheels are half wrapped in, and the front of the car, if not broken, should have a chrome waterfall grille, similar to the shape of a Rolls-Royce or something.

This is the most luxurious Braum in Cadillac, a high-end concierge car!

"Damn it, you idiots...... Hey, you're ...... Mr. Qin? Iftihar looked at Qin Feng who got off the back seat of the car and asked curiously.

"Iftihar? Aren't you in Pakistan? Why did you come to the United States, or drive a military vehicle? Qin Feng also asked curiously.

Oriental faces, do you still know?

Only then did Anthony dare to get out of the car.

"Well, Mr. Qin, I came to the United States to drive." Just as Iftihar and Qin Feng were communicating, the sound of coughing came from behind.

Iftihar glanced behind him and hurriedly introduced: "Mr. Qin, this is my boss, Mr. Anthony, Anthony, this is Mr. Qin of the Oriental Pacific Group." ”

Pacific Group? It seems that he has heard of it somewhere, and he is very famous, but Anthony can't remember it for the time being, so he can only say with a smile: "Mr. Qin, it's a pleasure to meet you, I'm very sorry, this car crashed you." ”

"It's okay, I rented it." Qin Feng said: "I have bought enough insurance before renting a car, wait for us to recreate the scene, hit the wall and then report the insurance, Xiao Li, you stay and deal with it!" ”

"Yes." The driver, named Xiao Li, has been living in the United States for several years and has a lot of experience, and he quickly recreated the scene, which is a risk, and in the United States, cheating on insurance is punishable by jail.

Anthony's heart was filled with gratitude.

"Mr. Qin, thank you so much."

"Yes, the last time I went to Pakistan, Iftihar drove me as a driver, he is my friend, you are his superior, you can take care of him more in the future...... But ......"

"Mr. Qin, what else do you need?"

"I don't have a car for a while, it's not easy to find a taxi in this place."

"Get in my car, where you go, I'll drop you off."

"Miller Scrap Metal Recycling has a site here that stores scrap metal, and I want to check it out. If it's appropriate, buy all the scrap metal back there. ”

This is also a coincidence, but this coincidence stands up to investigation!

In recent months, the price of all products in the East has been rising wildly, and metal is no exception, so some well-established businessmen have begun to make a big profit, waiting for an opportunity to recycle second-hand metal from the United States and buy it back for re-smelting.

Pacific Group also has a steel business, but also engaged in scrap metal recycling, Mr. Qin has been in the United States for almost a week, negotiated two scrap metal purchase contracts, and now this is the third!

As for this car accident, it was also the result of Anthony's constant urging, it was an accident, and they certainly did not know that the small civilian plane overhead had been monitoring the movement of the vehicles on both sides, and the Cadillac was constantly adjusting its speed, so that it made a precise impact.

This is a luxury car in Cadillac, the body is sturdy, a small collision can be withheld, and no one is stupid enough to put themselves in danger and deliberately cause a car accident, especially a group boss like Qin Feng.

Therefore, even if someone investigates later, everything is reasonable.

At this time, hearing Qin Feng say that he was coming to buy scrap metal, Anthony was also tempted, and he happened to make a batch of scrap metal there! The Tomcat fighter turned into scrap metal, and after being inspected by the relevant personnel, it should be disposed of by the base itself, although the base is large, it can't always be piled up with rags, right?

Can those scrap metals be sold for money?

Anthony has just returned to China, and there is no sales channel for scrap metal, and there are still many troubles to sell to these scrap metal recycling institutions in China, so it is better to sell it abroad.

"Mr. Qin, what scrap metal do you collect?"

"Mainly steel, after all, our country is in urgent need of a lot of steel, second-hand steel can be turned into steel bars and steel plates after returning to the furnace, just used for construction, however, other metals are also collected, after all, we lack everything, aluminum alloy and the like can also be turned into doors and windows after returning to the furnace, which is the highest, if it is a rare metal, it will be more valuable."

Rare metals!

Hearing Qin Feng say this, Anthony felt his heart pounding, but he remembered very well that when he was talking to his subordinates at the base just now, his subordinates said that the Tomcat fighter was just the titanium alloy wing box, which weighed eight hundred kilograms!

"How much does titanium cost?" Anthony asked excitedly.

"Titanium? This metal ...... Alas! ”

What are you sighing for? Anthony was a little curious: "Why, is this metal cheap?" ”

"The finished products of this metal are very expensive, but the recycling price is very cheap, and if I want to collect it, I can't pay a high price, so forget it."

"Why?" Anthony was even more confused.

"Because titanium alloys are very difficult to machine." Qin Feng said: "This kind of metal has excellent properties, light weight, high strength, and will not rust or anything, but the production process is very complicated, requiring special processing methods, we recycle it, and we also need to continue processing, but this thing is not convenient to process, such as simple cutting, you have to change the cutting saw blade in a few minutes, and the flame of the cut is still white, because those fine powders will be burned directly." Sometimes it has to be cooled with liquid nitrogen. ”

Not recyclable yet?

Anthony frowned: "What is the price?" ”

"You are the superior of Iftihar, it would not be good if I gave it too low, at most twenty dollars a kilogram, and you must ensure that the removed titanium alloy products remain as they are, so that we can process them according to the original shape, if they are flattened and broken, then we can't ask for them, and the processing will be more troublesome at that time."

"Okay, then twenty dollars a kilogram, don't worry, we promise to protect it well."

This price is not cheap anymore, after all, a Tomcat has a wing box of 800 kilograms, which is 16,000 dollars, and five is 80,000 dollars! Just the titanium alloy wing box can be sold for so much money, and there are other parts, a large number of aluminum alloys, which can be sold.

After the five tomcats are demolished, they will definitely be able to sell more than 100,000 dollars of scrap metal, and they will make a small fortune first!

The two were chatting in the car, and Iftihar had already driven the Hummer to the Miller scrap metal recycling company, where scrap steel was piling up.

Robert, the person in charge, greeted him.

"Mr. Qin, after we received your call, we counted it, and there are currently 3,000 tons of scrap steel here, if you want all of them, the price per ton can be reduced to eighty US dollars."

"Okay, it's 240,000 US dollars, I'll pay you half of the deposit first, you help load it on the ship, and as long as the goods leave the dock, we'll pay the other half of the price."

Qin Feng said, took out the check book, and wrote down the check for 120,000 US dollars, this action is too much!

Don't pay the point, don't talk about the price, just pay the deposit, and even the contract is just an ordinary standard contract, just write a few strokes.

"Mr. Qin, you ...... Rest assured, we promise to do it for you. Robert was also stunned by Qin Feng's operation, took the check, and immediately patted his chest and promised: "The last time Ah San's scrap metal recyclers came, they were not as happy as you, and they only paid a 10% deposit when the price was reduced to sixty dollars." ”

"You can't fall for Ah San, they are notorious for not paying the final payment." Qin Feng said: "We Oriental people do business, integrity-based, this is just the beginning, we will establish a long-term cooperative relationship in the future!" ”

"That's right."

"By the way, we also have scrap metal purchased from other places, which will be loaded on the same ship and transported together when the time comes."

"Okay."

In the 80s, the price of ordinary steel in the United States was 400 US dollars a ton, and the recycling price was much lower, and the price of 80 US dollars a ton of scrap steel was a normal market, according to the official exchange rate, that is, 300 yuan a ton, what about the East?

In the past few months, the price of finished steel in the East has soared, from 1,200 to 2,040, doubling! The price of recycled steel is as high as 801 tons! Moreover, this price continues to rise!

Therefore, buying scrap steel from the United States and returning it to the furnace is definitely profitable, and the key is to have foreign exchange!

Precious foreign exchange is used to purchase industrial products that are urgently needed by the country, how can it be spent on second-hand metals! Only the Pacific Group, which makes money abroad and spends abroad, has this ability.

After ten minutes, the cooperation was negotiated, and Qin Feng returned to the car: "Let's go, let's go back." ”

"Mr. Qin, is this it?"

"yes, what's the point? Let's go for a drink, I'll invite you! ”

Anthony sighed in his heart, this is the real big boss! A few hundred thousand dollars is a small amount to him!

"Mr. Qin, come to our base, there is a bar in the base, I invite you to have a drink."

"Your base? Can outsiders be allowed in? ”

"Mr. Qin, you are not an outsider." Anthony had a smile on his face: "You are a good friend of ours." ”

"That's right, we Orientals like to make friends, go, have a glass of wine, we are friends!"

The Humvee drove into the Davis-Monson base, looking at the dense group of aircraft that could not be seen at a glance, Qin Feng was also very shocked in his heart, he had only seen it in photos in later generations, and it was a different feeling from looking directly at it now.

This trench of oneself is nothing, the US military is the real trench inhumane!

The exterior of most of the planes is white, and it should have been treated with some kind of glazing, which looks very strange.

"With so many planes parked in the open air, aren't you afraid that thieves will come and steal things?" Qin Feng asked curiously.

"How is it possible, there is no man's land all around, even if they steal it, they can't run away, there are patrol officers in the base, and there are helicopters for special patrols."

There is only one possibility to lose something: the guards steal from themselves!
