1990Rage Flag Soldier

Chapter 97 An-12 comes first
Colomois took the two of them around the warehouse, straightened the brim of his hat before getting in the car, and said: "All types of small arms can be sold, ranging from fifty to two hundred dollars."

"A box of bullets costs ten dollars, and each box contains five hundred bullets. A light machine gun costs one thousand dollars, and a heavy machine gun costs two thousand dollars. If you buy a hundred rifles, you will get five boxes of bullets. A box of grenades costs one hundred dollars."

"Settlement can be done in U.S. dollars or francs, but not rubles."

Zhang Ziwen got in the car and calculated it, and found that the price was lower than the ex-factory price.

But it’s still a little more expensive than selling it by the pound for $5 a pound.

“Are there any discounts for buying in bulk?”

Zhang Ziwen asked.

Colomois shook his head: "No."

"There is no other company in the world with this price. Everything can be transported to the port or airport for you, but once it leaves the port, it is no longer responsible."

Zhang Ziwen said: "What about infantry combat vehicles, tanks, and airplanes?"

Colomois was already a little impatient and said: "The obsolete equipment can be sold and settled in US dollars. Those that have not been retired can only be settled in living materials. The new generation of equipment will not be sold."

"how much money you have!"

The old Su family was subject to a strict economic blockade and could not participate in world trade. Now the old Su is already the world's largest importer of food and an exporter of energy and minerals, exchanging raw materials for high-net-worth goods.

The economy is already on the verge of collapse.

In their country, clothes, socks, shoes, and soap are more valuable than U.S. dollars.

Because there are so many things that cannot be purchased with U.S. dollars, officers can only purchase them on the black market. On the contrary, light industrial products can be used as soon as they are obtained, allowing their families and subordinates to live a good life.

I found that what Lao Su wanted could be satisfied by the mainland: "It seems that I have to go to the mainland again, find a way to get some export quotas, and use supplies that are cheaper than U.S. dollars to exchange for things that U.S. dollars can't buy."

The use of U.S. dollars in Lao Su is limited, but the use of U.S. dollars in mainland China is much greater.

Each of the three parties gets what they need, but the one who loses blood is a giant who is about to fall.
"If I want that transport plane, can I pay in U.S. dollars?" Zhang Ziwen pointed to an An-12 at the airport. It was a big machine weighing 20 tons, ten meters high, and meters long.

It participated in the Czech War, the Chechen War, and the Afghan War for the old Soviet Union. It is one of the most popular transport aircraft in the world.

It has a maximum take-off weight of 61 tons, is equipped with four turboprops, and can carry up to 250 kilograms of explosives.

It has automatic cruise function, heading system, panoramic radar station, radio sighting system, optical sight and radar transponder.

When Colomois saw Zhang Ziwen pointing his finger at the An-12, his expression changed, and he said: "That aircraft has been produced for thirty years, and it requires a lot of maintenance every year. The general will definitely agree to sell it, but he can Do you want to settle in US dollars? I'll call the general for instructions."

Although Kolomois has a low military rank, he is the guard of the base commander Major General "Kayev". He is responsible for negotiating some small arms business. For projects involving more than one million US dollars, General Kayev still has to do it himself. negotiation.

An Suwen didn't expect that Zhang Ziwen would buy a transport plane with a wave of his hand. He quickly tugged on his shoulder and whispered: "Awen, how much money did you bring?"

"Five million dollars."

Zhang Ziwen said in Cantonese.

"Five million!" An Suwen opened his eyes wide and looked at the young man in front of him in disbelief. He could spend five million US dollars at a young age. Why should he fight for it? He could enjoy life comfortably on Hong Kong Island, right?

Is it so easy to make money?

The essence of business is actually to buy low and sell high. It is the same to collect diamonds in Congo and sell them to Hong Kong Island, to buy arms in Donbass and send them to Congo, and to sell mainland goods to Laosu.
There may be many difficulties, but as long as the joints are opened and the obstacles are kicked away, the money will flow into your hands like water.

Production and manufacturing are about making hard-earned money, while innovation and finance are about making money in the market and meeting the needs of suppliers and buyers, but they are making money on the items themselves.

Because the same thing has different values ​​in the eyes of different people.

The road is wild, but both buyers and sellers are happy. Although it violates the laws of some areas, it is a legitimate business that meets the needs of the times. If people find it, the goods will be seized at most. Anyone who objects is a fellow!
General Kayev is a Ukrainian with upturned eyes, a square face, and black hair.

After receiving a call from the guard, he deliberately changed into a general's uniform, took a special car to where the plane was parked, took off his leather gloves and stepped forward to shake hands with Zhang Ziwen: "Mr. Zhang, welcome to Baston."

"General, good afternoon." Zhang Ziwen looked a little happy when he heard that Kaev could speak English. He turned to point at the aircraft and said, "I wonder if that An-12 transport aircraft can be sold."

"can!"

Kaev glanced at the aircraft and said cheerfully: "This An-12BKV is a bomber. It can carry up to 12 tons of bombs. It has performed bombing missions on the Chechen battlefield."

"But it costs four million dollars."

The initial cost of An-12 was US$2500 million per unit, but as an antique that has been in service for thirty years, it is obviously not worth US$ million.

Since the An-12 is widely used to perform various tasks, including bombing, airborne, and electronic warfare, there are many improved models. The An-12BKV is the bomber type.

Although the aircraft are expected to have a service life of more than 25 years and a flight time of at least hours, the cost of aircraft is high, and many old guys who have been in business for or years are still active in various regions.

Zhang Ziwen's eyes lit up when he heard that there was a bomber next to him. Kaev Xu is a veteran in the business world. He saw that Zhang Ziwen was very excited and said specifically: "I may be transferred next year. The next base commander will be As a long-term partner, I don’t think I will necessarily sell things to you.”

Originally, Zhang Ziwen had no intention of counteroffering, but he couldn't help but laugh after hearing this. He saw Kaev's falsehood at a glance, looked up at the plane, and said directly: "Sister An, let's go."

"General Kaev, four million US dollars is too expensive. I will ask again next year." Zhang Ziwen smiled at the stunned Kaev: "I would like to see if he will increase the price."

Kaev froze in place and saw the Chinese boss sitting in the car. He stepped forward to hold the door with his hands and bent down and said: "You can save two hundred thousand dollars, but the payment must be settled within two days. There is no better price in the world." , if possible, I hope we can become friends."

The general held out his hand to him.

Zhang Ziwen knew that the other party would lose money if the price dropped. Although it would be an expense to maintain the aircraft there every year, and with the disintegration of Lao Su at the end of the year, it would probably be left on the ground and be eroded by time into a pile of scrap metal, but he bought the aircraft. You can make a lot of money in just a few months, and what you compete for is time, so I didn't hesitate to hold Kaev's hand and fly an An-12 first.

"It's a pleasure to be your friend, General."

"I hope to test the performance of the aircraft tomorrow. Can you help me arrange a pilot team?"

"No problem!" Kaev said cheerfully.

Zhang Ziwen said with a smile: "Then please fill the plane with AK47 and bullets, at least 500 RPGs and a thousand rockets, and fill it with fuel. I want to verify the maximum range of the An-12."
