John was silent for a moment after hearing the number.

"Mr. Gao, I wonder if Mr. Crow has told you something!"

"Given the nature of those people in the American military,"

"There's a very high chance they'll take a cut from this prisoner trade..."

After John finished speaking, Gao Ren couldn't help but shout out in his heart,

Holy crap!

How could I have forgotten about that?

Which department in the United States would be the most suitable for a Smith Secretary? The military, of course!

With seven or eight hundred billion US dollars spent on military spending every year, the result is that there's no money left to do anything.

Do we still need to guess where the money went?

"Elena, could Mr. Crow possibly make contact with the American military?"

Elena smiled and nodded.

"I'll call Crow right now!"

Seeing Elena get up, Gao Ren couldn't help but smile.

Oh shit,

With the addition of these Commissioners Smith, the ransom for each soldier, which would normally only be $100,000, was reduced.

If we don't increase it seven or eight times... wouldn't that be disrespecting those Commissioners Smith?

You should know that these Smiths started selling a pack of buttons for $70,000!

besides,

They can ask for millions of dollars for even a single goat.

They're living, breathing people now, what's seven or eight hundred thousand US dollars a piece of cake!

Thinking of this, Gao Ren raised his glass to John again.

"Mr. John, you are truly my lucky star!"

"I won't say any more nice words, no matter what the total price of this transaction is!"

"I'll give you a 3% commission!"

Three percent might not be a large sum elsewhere.

But in this deal, the money John received was more than all the money he had earned in his previous life!

Leaving aside the arrival of those Smith commissioners,

Based on Gao Ren's original ransom of $100,000 per person, the total amount for 10,000 people would be $1 billion!

Three percent of a billion US dollars is thirty million US dollars!

This still doesn't include those officials.

If you include the officials involved, he could earn at least forty million US dollars from this deal!

"Mr. Gao, I won't say any more."

“From now on, I, John, will be your henchman, Mr. Gao. If you tell me to go east, I will never go west.”

"You can ask me to kidnap someone else's wife, but I will absolutely not kidnap someone else's daughter!"

"Mr. Gao, I'll drink first as a sign of respect!"

John finished speaking with a serious expression, then tilted his head back and drank the entire glass of wine in one gulp...

Snap snap snap snap,

Seeing this, Gao Ren clapped and said,

"Impressive drinking capacity!"

After praising him, Gao Ren personally poured John a glass of wine and asked,

"Mr. John, what's this about you saying on the phone that you can help me open up arms markets in other countries?!"

After Gao Ren finished speaking, Holmes immediately picked up his wine glass and said with a smile,

Mr. Gao,

"Although I, Holmes, am merely a puppet, I haven't been able to sit firmly in that position for twelve years for nothing!"

"I'm not bragging,"

"As long as Mr. Gao's weapons and equipment are of good quality, I can help you sell as many as you have!"

After Holmes finished speaking,

Gao Ren felt like he was taking off from the spot.

"Come on, let's have another drink!"

After a glass of wine,

Gao Ren patted Holmes on the shoulder and said,

"Holmes, as long as you get this done,"

"Let me introduce you to Commander Xu from the north!"

Holmes isn't stupid; how could he not know that Gao Ren was testing him?

He wanted to introduce his powerful backer to him.

Holy crap!

What kind of idiotic statement is this?

Doesn't this mean that buyers and sellers skip the middleman and do business directly?

Would a middleman bring this up on his own initiative?

“Mr. Gao, I don’t know any Commander Xu or Commander Wang,”

"Here, I only know you, Mr. Gao!"

"Only you, Mr. Gao, are the true emperor of the Sultan!"

Hahahaha,

"Mr. Holmes is indeed a man of great things; he speaks so eloquently!"

"Ha ha ha ha,"

"I'm a man who accomplishes great things; I'm merely a junior who relies on Mr. Gao's guidance..."

Inoue Kumaji watched as Gao Ren chatted enthusiastically with Holmes and John, saying nothing.

John and Holmes also helped Gao Ren do something big that would make him money.

But what about himself?

In the end, he only helped Gao Ren screw over William....

If things continue like this, he, the one who was the first to act like a dog, will be left completely outmatched...

Mr. Gao,

"Don't you still have ten thousand Japanese prisoners of war?"

"I can also help you get a price that satisfies you!"

Seeing the anxious expression on Inoue Kumaji's face, Gao Ren finally understood.

Why were bosses in my past lives so willing to let their employees get involved in such activities...?

If they just let these employees roll it up themselves, the bosses can not only reduce their salary payments,

They can get their employees to earn more money for them without spending a single extra penny.

What boss wouldn't want to do something this good!

"Mr. Inoue,"

"Then I must toast you!"

Inoue Kumaji looked at the wine glass that Takahito had extended, and a proud expression immediately appeared on his face.
