Just as Fang Lang was delighted that his company's laboratory had successfully manufactured the Z-4 ​​electronic computer, he began to think about how to plan the European Recovery Plan that was about to be implemented.

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

The other person was a fat white man who looked to weigh more than 200 pounds. His face was covered with a beard and a bulging belly. One glance at him would tell you that this guy was not a good person.

There were a few burly men who looked like his younger brothers following behind him. Just at a glance, Ji Wanchang felt that this guy was more like a gangster than an arms dealer.

However, since it was Fang Lang who introduced him and he had already come to the United States, he had to bite the bullet and continue the contact.

"Mr. Simmons, nice to meet you!"

Facing the fat white man in front of him who looked difficult to deal with, Ji Wanchang tried his best to appear less harmless.

After all, I'm here to do business, not to cause trouble, so there's no need to conflict with the other party.

Simmons, however, looked at the thin, middle-aged Chinese man in front of him with some surprise. He was a distributor of Shata Company on the East Coast. In fact, he was not much different from the salesmen under Shata Company.

...

...

At the beginning, he was a salesman of Shata Company. In order to make money, Simmons thought of many ways. As a person born in the lower class, he did not have a deep political background or foreign background.

There are many salesmen like him in Shata Company. In order to achieve sales targets, most people go to less developed countries and directly sell weapons and equipment to the governments of various countries.

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

But he soon discovered that these governments were either colonies of certain countries or puppets supported by certain major powers. If they wanted to purchase arms, they had to buy them from those major powers and would never buy them from private hands like him.

Even if it is an American company.

Therefore, he quickly began to change his thinking and look for some guerrillas and anti-government armed forces that opposed the government, or even armed forces in Asian and African countries that were seeking independence.

It was obviously feasible to sell his weapons and equipment to them, so soon his performance began to improve by leaps and bounds.

It has gained considerable fame in many places.

But at the same time, his actions caused dissatisfaction among many traditional European colonial countries, especially because he contacted King Idris of Libya and sold a large amount of weapons and equipment to him.

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

This made Simmons a nobody in the eyes of the British and French governments. Neither the US government nor Shatta Corporation would come out to endorse Simmons on this point.

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

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

He was allowed to open his own foreign trade company, become his own boss, and become one of Shata Company's largest distributors.

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

After all, after Shata Company sold the arms to Simmons, it was no longer Shata Company’s business who Simmons sold them to.

This kind of operation is really too common.

Simmons would not refuse such a request. After all, if he set up his own company, he could purchase goods from Shatta Company at a lower price and make higher profits after selling them.

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

You have to know that Simmons is very clear that the business he is doing is very offensive. Now he is a well-known figure in the British and French governments. If things go wrong, there might be assassins looking for him one day.

Therefore, he is very careful about his safety, and very few people know where his home is.

All his arms business was negotiated in the company. Even if someone needed to contact him, they would send a telegram to his company or call his company.

But Ji Wanchang somehow got his home phone number, which scared Simmons.

Therefore, he was very wary of Ji Wanchang.

At first, he was afraid that the other party would buy arms from him, and wondered if it was a trap set by the enemy.

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

Therefore, of course, when I met Ji Wanchang for the first time, I was very surprised.

After seeing Ji Wanchang's attitude, he also breathed a sigh of relief, laughed loudly, stepped forward, shook Ji Wanchang's hand, gave him a big hug and said:

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

Having said that, he led the other party to the reception area of ​​the office.

The place where the two met this time was Simmons' company in New York, which was an office rented by Simmons in the bustling downtown area of ​​New York for security reasons.

After all, there are police everywhere in this kind of place. Even if someone wants to attack him, they have to consider whether it will cause bad consequences.

Simmons had to be even more careful when dealing with mysterious clients like Ji Wanchang.

After the two men sat in the reception area, their younger brothers stood behind them. No matter how you looked at it, this was a typical gangland negotiation.

Fortunately, Ji Wanchang was originally the leader of the Hongmen Hall, and was accustomed to this kind of situation, so he had no difficulty adapting to it.

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

He didn't mind if the other party behaved like gangsters, as long as they didn't cheat on each other and could really provide him with the arms he wanted.

So, he got straight to the point and took out the list of weapons that Fang Lang had arranged for him, put it on the table and pushed it in front of Simmons and said:

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

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

After hearing the other party's question, he didn't hesitate to pick up the other party's list from the table and started looking at it.

Just one look and his eyes lit up.

This is no small business!

Although he was very curious about the other party's background, the fact that he could easily find his home phone number showed that he was obviously not a simple character.

Therefore, he did not dare to inquire about the other party's background, but when the other party casually threw out such a large shopping list, it still made his eyes light up.

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

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

"Haha...Boss Ji, you're joking.

The equipment in your list is a piece of cake for us. If necessary, I can take you to the warehouse to pick it up now."

Upon hearing this, Ji Wanchang couldn't help but feel relieved. It seemed that the supplier provided by Mr. Fang was really very capable.

Originally, he thought that the other party was just a gang member like him, and he thought that the other party could only do small things like sell small weapons. But now the other party's confident performance really made him feel relieved.

However, after talking with Fang Lang, Ji Wanchang became much more cautious. He now has a concern, which is how to transport so many weapons and equipment to Malaya.

You have to know that the British are not blind or deaf. It is not easy to land such a large amount of weapons and equipment in Malaya without attracting their attention.

So, he pondered for a moment and said:

"Mr. Simmons, I wonder how much it would cost to ship this shipment to the place we specify?"

Being in the arms business requires the responsibility of transportation, which is a very troublesome thing for Ji Wanchang, but it is not a problem at all for Simmons.

As long as you can afford the money, you can ask him to deliver it to the door of the White House for you.

Seeing Ji Wanchang's attitude, Simmons was completely relieved. The other party should not be here to kill him. After all, the attitude he showed was that he really wanted to find him as a customer to purchase arms.

Moreover, he was a very high-quality customer, as it seemed that this was his first time to conduct such a transaction.

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

Hearing Ji Wanchang asking about the price, Simmons waved to a younger brother behind him, motioning him to come over and carefully calculate the price of the goods.

He 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 going to, so that I can tell you the overall price."

Seeing the other party asking about his specific destination, Ji Wanchang became a little hesitant. After all, once he told the other party his destination, the other party would definitely know what his purpose was.

But he was not sure that he could transport such a large amount of goods to his destination quietly and without being discovered by the British.

Simmons knew what the other person was worried about just by looking at his expression.

Now he felt more relieved. After looking at the other person's appearance, he smiled and said:

"Boss Ji, please rest assured!

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

I don't want to offend someone with such powerful power, nor do I intend to find out your background.

But since this is business, whether you like it or not, I will have a rough guess about your destination.

So, you don’t have to worry at all that I will leak my clients’ information. Keeping my clients’ confidentiality is the basic principle of doing business at Simmons.

And, even if you don't tell me, I can make a rough guess. After all, your skin color and appearance can explain a lot, right?"

Simmons' words can be regarded as very frank.

When Ji Wanchang heard this, he knew that what the other party said made a lot of sense. After all, his Chinese appearance was very conspicuous, and there was no point in trying to cover it up.

Moreover, the other party was the arms seller introduced by Fang Lang, and he had a basic trust in the other party.

So, after pondering for a while, he slowly said:

"You are right, I was judging others by my own standards!

I believe you can see that I am Asian, and my cargo is destined for Malaya. I wonder if Mr. Simmons can help me deliver the cargo directly to the location I specify in Malaya."

Simmons' eyes lit up when he heard this. Malaya was the market he was trying to open up! Unexpectedly, before he even got there, someone from there had already come to him.

This was really a big surprise. As for Malaya being a British colony, that had nothing to do with Simmons. The British would neither take care of his business nor give him money to earn.

Besides, he sold countless arms to the hostile forces of Britain and France in Africa.

Are you still afraid of selling 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 can make money, he doesn't care who the buyer of the arms is or who he is going to go to war with.

“Haha…Mr. Ji is straightforward.

Door-to-door delivery is one of our company's services. As long as you can afford it, we can deliver it to Malaya, even to the doorstep of Buckingham Palace in the UK.

I don’t know, do you have any requirements for the delivery 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 should not be underestimated!

But it’s better this way. Since you can tell the other party about the delivery without any scruples, he must have the ability to do so.

When he heard the other party asking whether there was any requirement for the delivery time, Ji Wanchang was stunned again. What did that mean? Was it because the distance was too far and the delivery time was longer, or was it because the delivery fee would be different if the goods arrived at different times?

Could it be possible that the other party could transport it directly by air?

He looked up at the other person in surprise, but still said:

"Of course the sooner the better!"

Simmons heard this, smiled and nodded:

“No problem. Malaya happens to be very close to the Philippines, and the quantity of goods you want is not large. I can find a way to transfer the goods from the Philippines for you.

When the time comes, give me a specific address and I'll have it delivered to your door!"

At this time, the younger brother who was responsible for calculating the amount came to Simmons with a folder and handed the folder to Simmons. Simmons took it casually, opened it and took a look, and his eyes lit up.

This is really a big business!

After thinking about it, Simmons said directly:

"Boss Ji, this is our first business, and I won't make much money from you. I'll charge you $100,000 including the shipping fee. What do you think?"

Ji Wanchang was shocked when he heard this. This price was really beyond his expectations. He originally 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.

He only brought 100 kilograms of gold. In Brazil, Fang Xinshui took him to a bank to exchange it for US dollars, and he exchanged it for a total of 123,500 US dollars.

He was originally worried that the amount of equipment had increased, and now the shipping cost had to be added, which would cost at least around 150,000 US dollars.

Unexpectedly, after some calculations, the other party found that it was only $100,000 including the shipping fee. There was still some money left from the $120,000 I brought with me.

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

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

What’s even more amazing is that the other party casually said that they wanted to transfer goods from the Philippines.

Where in the Philippines can there be so many arms?

Anyone with a little bit of common sense would quickly figure out where the other party was planning to get the arms for them.
