Chapter 1173 Lu Xiaoqi Buys Arms
The North can obtain weapons, but cannot ship them globally.
Especially as the crackdown progressed, heavier weapons were basically extinct, and only light weapons were available.
So it can only be obtained from Hong Kong and shipped out.
The person we are going to meet this time is the most famous Fire Dog in Hong Kong. No matter in the past or now, the gang would place orders for weapons they needed from him. It is said that this guy has a wide range of channels and no matter what you want, he can get it.
Original goods, parallel imports, second-hand goods, military, police, etc., as long as the money is paid, he can give you the entire tank in a container.
This is connected to the forces supported by the family faction. Although they are conservative, the forces they support are still doing well. Although they cannot spread all over the world, they still have many ways to do it.
A warehouse.
Lu Xiaoqi arrived early with a dozen people, first observed the surrounding environment, and then waited patiently for the arrival of the fire dog.
About half an hour later, seven or eight strong men carrying boxes came in. Leading them was a middle-aged man wearing a flowered shirt and shorts, with a cigar in his mouth and a big gold chain on his head.
This is Huo Gou, Hong Kong’s underground arms dealer.
"Mr. Su, sorry for the long wait, hahaha..."
The Fire Dog laughed heartily, revealing his smoke-blackened teeth, and walked forward enthusiastically, extending his right hand.
"No thanks, I'm not here to make friends."
"Also, you're late."
Lu Xiaoqi frowned and ignored the other party's right hand.
For him, he had never dealt with such a person in his life. In his eyes, Fire Dog was an inferior person who was not worthy of being on the stage.
If I hadn't had to buy weapons, I would never have seen such a person in my life.
"Mr. Su is right, I'm late." Huo Gou put his hand away and said with a smile, "It's mainly because Hong Kong is different now. The police are checking very strictly, haha."
Although he was looked down upon, he didn't care at all.
Just as Lu Xiaoqi said, we are not here to make friends, we are just here to get what we need.
"Stop talking nonsense. Where are the goods?" Lu Xiaoqi asked.
"Come, take out the goods and let Mr. Su see them." Huo Gou shouted.
Seven or eight boxes were placed on the table. When they were opened, the weapons inside were revealed: rifles, submachine guns, machine guns, rocket launchers...
"This is the original Eagle Country rifle. It has a fast rate of fire, good stability, and high accuracy. It's widely used by special forces. This submachine gun is the most stable in the world today, and it's used throughout the Pentagon. The heavy machine gun is also an Eagle version, and its quality is impeccable. This gun can suppress a group of people..."
This is the weapon Lu Xiaoqi needs, but it is only the most basic.
"That's all?"
"Of course not, there's also Big Baby, haha."
Several younger brothers opened the other three boxes and assembled the barrel parts inside to form an M134 six-barrel heavy machine gun.
"M134! With a firing rate of 6,000 rounds per minute, it's definitely the king of machine guns."
"Let me put it this way. One man with a rifle can crush an entire battalion! If this thing hits a person, it will rip them to shreds in an instant."
"Mr. Su, would you like to try the gun?"
Lu Xiaoqi stared at M134 and nodded.
"Load the bullet and let Boss Su try it."
A younger brother took out the bullet belt, loaded it, and placed it on the table.
Lu Xiaoqi walked over and pulled the trigger.
“Puff, puff, puff…”
As the barrel rotated, bullets flew out wildly and shell casings fell like rain.
nice one!
Although he had little contact with firearms, Lu Xiaoqi knew that this heavy machine gun was definitely the king among kings. Once it opened fire, no one could escape.
"good."
Although his eyes lit up, he only said "not bad" reservedly.
"Boss Su knows what he's talking about, haha." Huo Gou laughed and said, "If you think it's okay, then let's talk about the price?"
"The price is negotiable. I'll take all the guns you have." Lu Xiaoqi waved his hand. "But these weapons are not enough. I also need missiles."
"Missiles? Holy shit!" Fire Dog's eyes widened. "You want to start a war?"
"Don't worry about what I'm doing. Can you get it?" Lu Xiaoqi stared at him.
"You can definitely get it, but it's very expensive. It also depends on what kind of missile you need, air-to-ground or ground-to-air. I recommend you buy the Stinger." Fire Dog said.
"Which missile is the most powerful? The one that can be launched from a long distance and hit the target directly? I want that kind. Money is not a problem." Lu Xiaoqi was very confident.
Money is indeed not a problem. For families like theirs, money is probably the least valuable thing.
And now he has a lot of knives in his hands, all of which are loans issued by Lei Zhen, which are just enough to buy weapons.
"That would have to be a cruise missile. A cruise missile costs $8 million."
"I want 1,000!"
"No!"
"Didn't you say you can handle anything?"
"Boss, do you think cruise missiles are just artillery pieces? Even the world's largest weapons black market can't get this many. Normally, a few are enough. It's hard to make even one of these."
People who want 1,000 cruise missiles right away are pure idiots!
"Can't get it?"
"I definitely can't get the Eagle version. I can only get the Mao version, but I'm not sure if Mao still has that much stock." Fire Dog explained. "Besides, even if they did, I wouldn't be able to get it. The deposit alone is astronomical. If I calculate based on 1,000 pieces, I need to pay a 30% deposit first, which is $2.4 billion."
This is the rule, the 30% deposit cannot be less.
The international practice is 30% to 50%, and only trusted governments can pay 10% in advance.
"Boss Su, let's talk about the missiles later. Let's talk about this deal first."
"After all, this is our first time doing business. Only with trust can we move on to bigger deals. After all, missiles involve a huge amount of money. Even if I give you a promise now, you might not believe it."
This is true. Trust is built up slowly. Only with the first business deal can there be a second one, and only then can there be transactions with a larger volume.
"100 of these machine guns, and 500 each of the others." Lu Xiaoqi nodded and said, "If you can meet my requirements, I'll give you a bigger business next time."
"A deposit of 20 million dollars will be delivered within 5 days." Fire Dog held up three fingers.
"Pay in full upon delivery of the goods." Lu Xiaoqi said.
"Put it away and go." Huo Gou turned around and ordered, "Hurry up and tear it down. We still have to talk to the next company."
Just leave without saying anything more.
"What? You don't want to do business anymore?" Lu Xiaoqi asked.
"Boss, are you kidding me? Buying arms without a deposit is unheard of in the world! The international practice is a 50% deposit, but I'm charging you a 20% deposit because you were introduced by President Hua."
"Since you're not sincere, let's not waste any more time talking about this and find another seller."
"But I must remind you that I'm the only one in Hong Kong who can get this much stock. Even if you buy from others, you'll still have to buy from me in the end, but the price will be different."
Lu Xiaoqi stared at Huo Gou and his group, watching them about to leave, and finally called out to them.
"Account, transfer immediately."
“…”
Soon, a deposit of 20 million US dollars was deposited into the designated account, and both parties agreed to take delivery of the goods directly in 5 days.
Trust has to be built slowly.
After all, Lu Xiaoqi is a newcomer and he doesn't have more channels. Fortunately, 20 million is not a lot.
The departing Fire Dog sat in the car and asked his younger brother to drive around in circles.
"Brother, where are you going?"
"Go...buy a plane ticket."
With $20 million in your pocket, of course you have to buy plane tickets and go out and spend money.
Trust is something that sometimes doesn't need to be established...
