Chapter 186 Vehicle Delivery Soon, brake sounds were heard outside the door. The boss of the Armed Nation came back and greeted Sig. Zhang Ailun also came to the hall after hearing the sound. He didn't have the chance to see him last time. This time, he found that he was also a tall and thin middle-aged man with gold-rimmed glasses, and there was a lawyer with a briefcase next to him. "I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. I have some personal matters to take care of. Now I have time to help my friend with the transaction at the gun store. First of all, I want to thank you for what you did for me last time. You successfully escorted the arms to Wells Fargo Bank. It helped me a lot. Of course, I will agree to your request." The owner of Ammunition Nation said with a smile, "It just so happens that my friend has retired from the gun shop and asked me to help deal with it. I have already told you the details. If you don't mind, come with me to the gun shop to take a look." "A field investigation is of course necessary." Sig nodded and did not refuse. After the group left the gun store, the Armed-Nation boss got into a Cadillac and led the way, while Zhang Allen, Sig and the other two got into a Wrangler and followed behind. Before long, after running a few blocks, I saw the locked door of the Armed Nation store in the construction area near West Street. The exterior decoration looked very solemn. The sign had the logo of the gun store and the letters of "Human Torch" written on it. The windows were sealed with steel plates and steel bars. There was also a car wash and convenience store next to it. After getting out of the car, the boss of Armed Nation first went to the backyard, connected the electrical box to the power supply, took out the remote control key and entered the password, unlocked the face and recorded the voice, unlocked and opened the door of the gun store room, and also retracted the bulletproof steel plates on the windows. "This is the same anti-theft door lock facility used by security companies and banks. Our business is quite special, so we must take good security measures. Otherwise, if we lose a serial numbered firearm and there is no transaction record, and it appears on the market and someone dies, we cannot escape responsibility. Come in and take a look!" The boss first introduced the few people and then took them into the gun store. The interior scale was not inferior to his gun store. There were targets, swordfish ornaments, and a fish tank hanging on the wall. However, the glass cabinets and wooden cabinets were empty, and the environment seemed a bit deserted. "Of course, what you bought is only the qualification of the gun shop and the pass for escorting arms transactions. If you want heavy firepower weapons, you need to find channels to purchase them yourself." The boss smiled and said, "As long as you decide to buy this store, I can also introduce you to several professional PMC companies, arms dealers, military district relations, or street gun dealers. As long as you work hard, you can definitely make a lot of money from it!"
I took a few people to visit the sales hall on the first floor, the lounge, the office on the second floor, and the backyard. The basic indoor facilities were all available, and the office also came with computers and Sky Eye camera equipment. There was also an armed escort vehicle parked in the backyard. The boss of Ammunition-Nation turned on his computer, clicked on a link to an official bidding website, and demonstrated it to the others. "This is the arms bidding website we often use internally. We also prefer to call it the Opportunity Network. On it, you can find a lot of reports about military regions and arms transactions, from small things like transporting security equipment, bullets, and gun oil to the police, to big things like cooperating with PMC and the government to airlift some heavy firepower weapons to other states or even other countries." "The qualifications of this Armed Nation can also be found online. It is a two-star qualification. Most gun stores on the market only have ordinary qualifications and can only purchase and trade ordinary small-caliber civilian firearms, such as pistols and submachine guns, but not military equipment. People with connections can apply for advanced qualifications and can sell assault rifles, machine guns, sniper rifles, rocket launchers, and large-caliber firepower weapons. The gun laws and regulations of each state are different, and the qualifications are also different." "A one-star gun shop is like an armed nation, where you can trade a lot of heavy firepower and large-caliber military equipment, and a two-star qualification allows you to escort and transport heavy firepower weapons, purchase bulletproof armed escort vehicles, modify private cars with bulletproof glass, enter and exit police stations, participate in bidding, and enter special local military regions." Zhang Ailun took a look at the transaction interface on the official website. It was unremarkable, no different from browsing an ordinary opportunity website. It was all weapon pictures, introductions and prices. Buyers could contact the store to trade and sell if needed. There were also errands such as escorting gun stores. After learning about the escort mission, I found out that one needs to accept the commission from the employer, or cooperate with other gun shops and companies to escort a batch of smuggled arms to a designated location. It is equivalent to renting a car and people, concealing the truth, and making a profit of at least 2 US dollars at a time. People in this industry have to do these jobs. For example, one of the tasks is to [transport a batch of security equipment including Tasers and grenades to the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department]. On the surface, there is nothing wrong with it. But there is another task that requires some paper documents to be transported to the private residence of [a county council member]. What exactly the file is depends on one's opinion. It's a deal anyway. The financiers are willing to pay and make money. The Armed Nation's escort vehicles will certainly turn a blind eye. On the surface, they are transporting arms, but in reality, we don't know what's on the vehicles. The profit from selling guns alone is not that high. Last time, the boss of Ammunition-Nation smuggled contraband in that batch of ordinary arms, but he must have made far more than 2 US dollars. Anyway, it doesn't cost much for them to hire security personnel. They sign a contract with PMC company and the hourly wage is about $85. They hire a scattered team and the hourly wage is $60. If there is an accident, they will pay a few thousand dollars. If there is no accident, it is all profit. Mercenaries and security personnel are simply exchanging their lives for money. Even for Blackwater personnel, excellent mercenaries can only get tens of thousands of dollars a month. Most mercenaries and security personnel can earn more than $8 a month on the battlefield. The daily workload is definitely more than 200 hours, which means more than 45 hours a month, which is equivalent to an hourly wage of only $60-. They are bombarded with bombs overhead every day and bullets grazed their scalps. The key is that you may not even get this money. What you can get is basically all pensions. Just look at the price paid by the mercenaries recruited by Damao and Ermao and you will know that this business is really not profitable. People who have the conditions will never become mercenaries. $10000 is a lot. The secondary page is heavy firepower, and only special star-level armed nations can open transactions. Otherwise, it will be grayed out when opened, and you can only browse but not click on transactions. The weapons look quite violent, such as the armored mountain off-road vehicle, the tires are changed into tank tracks, the vehicle is covered with bulletproof steel plates, full of spikes and gun muzzles, and the Bumper Car is modified into an armored machine car. The weapons that can be modified are the Dune FAV 40mm grenade launcher and the caliber Vulcan Gatling. There is also a military district that is selling an F-16 fighter jet, as well as parts and fire control equipment for various fighter jets, but their qualifications are shown in gray, indicating that they are not qualified to purchase the transaction. Damn, can this be sold?
It has to be you! However, those who are qualified to purchase fighter jets are stable partners with the military region in long-term transactions. As long as there is official endorsement, what can't be bought with money? If you can't buy it, it can only mean that you don't have enough money or connections. He took out two more black boxes and opened them to reveal a classic lever-action rifle and a revolver. The owner of Ammunition-Nation played with them for a while and said, "This thing is a bit old, but it's still good for hunting. I'll give it to you." Then he pressed open a secret door on the wall of the office. There was nothing inside. It could be seen that it was the place where the boss's personal weapons and cash were stored. "You can store some daily items here. The password is 000000. It uses the same equipment as the safe in the VIP room in Las Vegas. You can ask someone to recompile the password yourself, or find a professional to reinforce the firewall." The boss introduced everything he could and said with a smile: "The initial investment to open an ordinary gun store is not exaggerated. Some small places in the countryside only need tens of thousands of dollars to open a store. In Los Angeles, you only need to rent a store and pass the qualification review to open a business, but the most important thing is the trading qualification." "Although this two-star Armed Nation has a relatively ordinary geographical location, its actual profit conditions are still very good. Two-star qualifications also require an annual transaction volume of more than 500,000 US dollars with the regional authorities, otherwise it will be downgraded. This is the minimum requirement, not the highest standard, and it is still relatively loose." "If you want to buy it, you only need to pay me $46 and you can sign the qualification transfer contract. In addition to the bulletproof armed escort vehicle, I can also give you a small hangar in the suburbs." If this price is for the location of the Javelin store, it is undoubtedly very unscrupulous. But if it is for purchasing high-level qualifications and a suburban hangar, it is obviously a very conscientious price! Just like the boss of Ammunition-Nation said, as long as you work hard, you will get your money back soon. Zhang Ailun and Xige went to the side to discuss it. "Boss, what do you think?" "I think it's OK. As long as you work hard in the later stage and do a few more transactions every day, you can make money without doing anything." Zhang Ailun said, "Don't you already have $17 in your hand? Leave $15 for your daily expenses, and you take out $31. I can help you pay the remaining $. I can also invest in the purchase of guns and ammunition later. You hold % of the shares and I hold %. The person in charge of the gun store will write your name." After all, Xige is a pure old Ansa of the Plain White Banner and a retired captain in the army. The leader has yellow skin, black eyes, and is a fifth-class citizen. The Asian sanctions law has all the negative buffs! Even if you ask him to sign, he won't be willing to sign. "OK." Sig had no objection to this. He definitely couldn't buy a gun store by himself, and he had to rely on the leader to help. He immediately expressed his opinion to the boss of Ammu-Nation and said readily, "No problem. We can sign the contract now." Seeing how straightforward they were, the boss asked the lawyer next to him to take out two copies of the prepared documents for them to review. Zhang Ailun looked at the transfer contract and smiled: "Do you mind if I ask someone to take a look at it again?" "of course." The boss of Armed Nation also realized that this person was the real financial backer who could make the final decision and pay the money. Zhang Ailun immediately took a few photos and sent them to Dave, asking him to help study them. A few minutes later, Dave also sent a message: There is no problem, the transfer contract is very detailed and there are no traps, but the price of 46 is too exaggerated. Where did you get so much money? Is it a loan? Zhang Ailun: It’s all hard-earned money! After getting the certification from the top lawyer Dave, Zhang Allen felt relieved and let Sig sign the contract directly with his own name on it. Zhang Ailun went out and took out $28 in cash from the Wrangler, and transferred another $3 to the other party. Both parties signed and sealed the deal, happily reaching a deal. "I will not participate in the following activities. My lawyer will take you to visit the hangar in the suburbs and give you the key and password. You can contact me if you need anything." Seeing the matter coming to an end, the owner of the Armed Nation also took out his business card, handed over the shop key, and added a new ID account to the gun store's online account. He smiled and said, "If you do a good job, I will introduce you to jobs in the future!" "Thank you so much, man." Zhang Ailun glanced at the newly added contact, Mr. Black Tea. Why not call him Dajiling Tea Bag? I took another look at the gun store’s account on , Human Torch Armed Nation.
It’s a good name, it’s very popular. The chief leader has no intention of changing it. After seeing off the boss of Armed-Nation, Zhang Ailun handed the keys of the Wrangler to Sig, asking him to drive. He sat in the passenger seat and drove to the airport in the suburbs under the navigation and positioning command of the lawyer. Soon we arrived at a small airport in the suburbs and found that there were many private planes parked in the hangars here. Low-altitude flight is in open airspace, which makes travel very convenient and there is no need to apply for a route. If you want to take a long-distance flight, you only need to call the aviation department of the area you are passing through before traveling and inform the other party. Except for special private airports, you don’t have to pay any extra miscellaneous take-off and landing fees. You only need to pay for the fuel and aircraft maintenance fees yourself. Owning a private jet is similar to owning a private car, which is very convenient. After parking the Wrangler on the side of the road and walking across the tarmac, the lawyer led the three people to the small hangar of B-266, entered a password to unlock it, opened the door, and then handed the key to Zhang Ailun. "Come in and take a look. This hangar has not been used for a long time. It can accommodate up to four small aircraft and two small and medium-sized passenger planes." said the lawyer. Zhang Ailun walked in and took a look, and found that it was just an empty warehouse. There were some maintenance equipment, a pulley ladder for landing on the aircraft, and some wooden boxes piled up, but there was nothing unusual inside. Sig also found some police equipment in the board room next to him, as well as two windshield helmets and night vision equipment for flying airplanes, and a parachute backpack. It can be seen that they have not been used for a long time and are covered with dust, but two sets of professional flight equipment cost at least three thousand dollars! Bailey found a mountain tricycle and was a little surprised to find that it could still start. There is not much gas left in the tank, but there is a gas station next to the airport, so there is no need to worry about running out of energy. "These are gifts from our boss. We can't use them anyway," said the lawyer. "Thank your boss for me." Zhang Ailun said with a smile. This three-wheeled motorcycle is worth at least two thousand dollars. The airport in this hangar is quite large, so it is a good choice for transportation. The hangar also needs to be cleaned before it can be used. After the hangar was delivered and the lawyer signed, we happily reached a transfer agreement, and I took a taxi back to the city. Zhang Ailun moved the broom and trash can to the door and gave orders to Sig and Bailey, saying, "Start cleaning. Don't worry, this job is all yours, no one will take it away from you! Take your time!" "Ok." Sig took a look at the hangar and simply rolled up his sleeves without saying anything more. The leader has lost a lot of money today, spending hundreds of thousands of dollars, so how can he let the other party take action? I picked up the broom and started cleaning the dust and garbage in the warehouse. While waiting, Blitzcrank also sent a message to the chief leader, and Zhang Ailun clicked it and took a look. Blitz: The Bitcoin has already been sold to someone, and the other party is interested in buying the USTD worth $100,000. They have sent me the wallet link, and I need you to transfer the money. Zhang Ailun glanced at the long list of links, opened the app, and transferred the operation. He saw that the virtual currency in his wallet was instantly cleared. (End of this chapter)
