From Arms Dealer To King of War Chapter 132

  Chapter 132 Big business

  The 'Professor' never expected that Qiaojia would bring back a Minister of Defense after going out for a trip.

  Although he is the Minister of Defense of Central Africa, he is a real 'big man', a 'big man' who can go to the United Nations to fight with others.

However, Central Africa is a sanctioned arms embargo country, and the 'professor' knows that doing business with such a person must go through a middleman like Qiaojia, otherwise, even if the negotiation is successful, the UGG may not be able to issue a deal. goods.

This 'professor' took the initiative to say hello to Mary Enola, and then asked his wife and daughter to visit the Central African Minister of Defense, and then pulled his assistant to blind Andre, and began to move out of Europa The laws and regulations of various countries in Afika are ready to assist Choga in completing this important negotiation.

  Choga wasn't nervous at all at the moment, he invited his own people to come and meet the 'big man', and then told the housekeeper to serve the meal.

  The villa's buffet is designed for a reception of about 50 people. The overall size is quite satisfactory, and the content is mainly seafood.

  Mary Enola only brought six bodyguards, and even with Qiao Jia and the others and the soldiers from the 63rd Brigade on shift, it still seemed a bit deserted.

  However, Qiaojia and Mary Enola were not focused on the food. After taking a few casual bites, Mary Enola walked to the small exhibition hall that was just set up today with a glass of champagne accompanied by Qiaojia.

This kind-faced, fat middle-aged woman put down her champagne and skillfully picked up a high imitation FN-SCAR modular rifle, skillfully pulled the charging handle to check the chamber, then smiled at Choga and said: "This It's a nice gun, too bad our army can't afford it."

   Qiaojia shook his head with a smile and said, "There are not many countries that can replace all of these rifles."

   Qiaojia's words are a bit of a comforting concept, because if it is FN-SCAR, most countries may not be able to replace it, but high imitations are not necessarily the case.

   It's just that arms have national boundaries. Even if the rifles produced by the superpowers are not as good, they will definitely give priority to using their own products, such as the British L85 series rifles.

  The British insisted on upgrading the L85 series to L85A3 despite the army's scolding.

  Looking at the big bodyguard who has been following Mary Enola all the time, putting his gun on the table with his eyes on it.

Looking at the historical pistol and holster on the guy's waist, Choga thought for a while, picked up an EZ9 pistol that still smelled of gun oil, and handed it to him along with a new holster and two empty magazines. He said with a smile: "Take it as a gift. Protecting Minister Enola requires a reliable weapon. Your Makarov is a good gun, but it seems a bit old."

  Mary Enola looked at her bodyguard's slightly embarrassed expression, she smiled and waved her hand and said, "Since it was given by Mr. Jackal, then you can accept it."

   While speaking, Mary Enola looked at Choga and said with a smile: "I believe that Mr. Jackal will not be stingy to help my other bodyguards replace with better pistols. They really need it."

  As the Minister of Defense of Central Africa, Mary Enola is indeed very approachable, but this also reflects the weakness of Central Africa from the side.

  Her bodyguard equipment can't be really that good. There must be automatic rifles, but they can't carry them around in Tunisia.

  Mary Enola's security could be called lax, but Choga didn't see a trace of uneasiness from her.

  Either she has no enemies, or her enemies are so stupid that even non-native assassinations can't be done.

  Thinking about it in this way, Choga's confidence is even more sufficient. Under such circumstances, Central Africa will definitely not want any advanced weapons.

In Qiaojia's eyes, the EZ9 pistol can only be regarded as a passing grade. Facing Mary Enola's joking begging, Qiaojia waved his hand with a smile and said, "Then each of you has one. The quality of the selected samples is absolutely guaranteed.”

   As he said that, Choga greeted Kaman, who was changing shift, followed his own Dorian, and said, "Take 5 pistols and change them for our friends."

   It may be that Choga's generosity impressed Mary Enola. She visited the light weapons booth, nodded and said: "They are all very practical weapons, but we may want more."

Choga heard something, he called Mary Enola to sit down on a set of sofas, took a sip of the juice that Nice handed over, then looked at Enola, and said: "I'm all ears, what do you want? What do you want?"

Enola glanced at Nice who was standing behind Choga holding a notebook and a pen. After a few seconds of silence, she said: "We need a lot of squad weapons and ammunition, automatic rifles, machine guns, heavy machine guns, mortars, RPGs …

   Besides these, we also need armored vehicles, tanks, artillery. "

  When Qiaojia heard it, he looked towards the far end of the exhibition hall, where the 'professor' was nodding desperately, and told him with his mouth, 'all' and 'all'...

  Joga wasn't dazed like the 'Professor'. These things aren't considered high-end, and the previous ones are easy to talk about, but even if there are armored vehicles, tanks, and cannons, how can I transport them in for her?

As the name suggests, Central Africa is in the middle of Afika. After leaving the air freight, other delivery routes have to enter other countries. This kind of delivery mode is very strenuous, at least Qiao Jia himself temporarily There is no absolutely reliable delivery channel.

  As long as the light weapons are good, the 'professor' has the right to activate a special case for the transaction, get an An-12 and make a few more round trips, and the business can be done.

   But armored vehicles, tanks, and cannons are too much work, and armored vehicles are okay. Choja really doesn't think that China and Africa can afford tanks and cannons.

  According to Qiaojia's understanding, the market price of a 155mm howitzer should be around US$4,000. How many shots can a country in Central Africa with a per capita GDP of only a few hundred US dollars shoot?

   What Qiaojia wanted was not a one-shot deal. His industry channels were too narrow, and a minister of defense was already the top big shot he could get in touch with.

   Regardless of whether she is a layman or not, the most important thing now is to make her customers shake, and then take advantage of the trend to expand her influence in Afika and attract more customers.

Seeing the expectant look in Mary Enola's eyes, Choga nodded and said, "I have everything you said, and if you ask for more, I also have advanced high-mobility wheeled self-propelled artillery here, and a large number of them. vehicle-mounted rocket launcher.

   Even on the higher end, I have a 400mm guided rocket system. "

While speaking, Qiaojia looked at Mary Enola's surprised expression, and said with a smile: "Ms. Enola, you were introduced by a friend, so let me tell you the truth, doing business with the Central African Communist Party H is risky." Yes, I need enough price to even out the risk.

   I first need to know how much budget you can come up with, and then we talk about what can you get?

  As long as the money is in place, I will definitely be able to meet your needs.

   But I personally recommend that you give up tanks and cannons, because they are too expensive to use, and an old-fashioned RPG of 300 yuan can make them scrapped.

   If you really want to have armored forces in Central Africa, I suggest you choose this 'Lazar 3' multi-purpose armored vehicle.

  Weighing 28 tons, 8*8 wheeled structure, carrying 12 people, equipped with automatic weapon towers including heavy machine guns and anti-tank missiles,

  $2.2 million for one car, I can deliver it to your door, but first you have to tell me which country you have a better relationship with, lest I go around in circles. "

  When Qiaojia quoted 2.2 million yuan, the 'professor' at the far end straightened his eyes, because he clearly knew that the ex-factory price of the regular version of Lazar 3 was only 950,000 US dollars.

  Now that Qiaojia's quotation has doubled and turned a corner, the Minister of Defense seems to think it is quite cheap, which makes the 'professor' a little confused.

   Not only was the 'Professor' puzzled, but Choga was also puzzled by Mary Enola's interest.

  Of course, Choga believes that as long as the Central African government is willing to pay into their belts, they can spend tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars to buy arms, but this thing is a drop in the bucket for the entire army.

   What can you do if you spend 100 million to buy 40 armored vehicles?

   It also costs 100 million to buy 100,000 rifles. In Afika, this is a 100,000 army.

  Choga's quotation contained a hint of intimidation, and he wanted to make Mary Enola retreat and consider a more practical light weapon. What he didn't expect was that Mary Enola was actually quite interested.

  If you can become the Minister of Defense, you will always be able to settle accounts!

  For a country whose national defense depends entirely on the support of "big brother", Mary Enola's current performance is a bit inappropriate for money.

  Maybe sensing Qiaojia's thoughts, Mary showed a kind smile on her face, and glanced around.

   Qiaojia took a look, then turned to look at Nice and said, "You all go out, and let everyone stay away from here."

After everyone left, Qiaojia and Enola were left to sit opposite each other. The kind-looking black aunt said: "Actually, I have a lot of choices, and I don't necessarily want you, but you are not too greedy." ..."

   Qiaojia frowned slightly and spread his hands, "Then should I be honored?"

   Enola waved her hand and said: "You should understand the situation in Central Africa. Most of the weapons of our army are sponsored by Russia, and the security of our capital needs the help of Russian defense companies.

  We want to grow our defense business, but our necks are stuck.

  The anti-government armed forces entrenched near the borders of Central Africa and Congo are constantly raging in our towns. They take our children and train them as boy scouts, and let them come back to fight with their own people.

  Not only are we suffering, but our neighbor Congo is also bleeding.

  We need enough weapons to arm our troops and keep them guarding our towns. "

   Qiaojia nodded in understanding, and said, "I can understand your feelings, but I still suggest that you consider spending the money in the most appropriate place, because dozens of armored vehicles cannot solve your problem."

  Mary Enola heard this, looked into Choga's eyes and said: "Armored vehicles can't solve it, but people who have the ability to sell armored vehicles can solve it.

  Actually, this purchase is not what you imagined..."
