Chapter 1174 1172 [Pounds are more useful than guns!]

Hollywood once made a movie about the arms trade called "Lord of War", starring the Oscar-winning actor "Nicolas Cage" who later made countless bad movies.

This movie profoundly reflects how profitable the arms business is, and the arms smuggling between Shi Zhijian and the British troops stationed in Hong Kong reflects the fact that this business is really profitable, and it is snowballing.

The bigger.

Shi Zhijian himself was not willing to get involved in this kind of thing, so he handed it over to his cheap relative Guibo Dejia to take over.

However, Badgar, who has now become an "arms tycoon", has received news that South Korea, Thailand, Malaysia and other places have an increasing demand for arms. The supply of a mere British army stationed in Hong Kong is obviously insufficient. Now the only option is

Only by opening up the British local market and opening up relationships here can we supply large quantities of goods.

Shi Zhijian originally thought this would be a very difficult task, but he underestimated the greed of these British guys.

Before Shi Zhijian could take action, Colonel Gill had already taken the initiative to come to the door, and under the pretext of meeting the Earl, he locked himself in the room and talked to Shi Zhijian about the shady matter of smuggling arms.

According to Gill, the British military is also willing to cooperate with Badgar and become Badgar's "long-term supplier", and is willing to sell the "obsolete" weapons and "reports" of the navy, army and air force.

The damaged weapons were sold to Badgar, who then resold them at a high price.

Believe it or not!

In fact, many of the weapons that Gill and others call "eliminate" or "reported as damaged" are regular weapons - for money, they would rather fight with fire sticks themselves than sell their good equipment!

Seeing how sincere these ghost guys were, Shi Zhijian planned to "fulfil" them.

But then, as this business grew bigger and bigger, trouble arose. How to launder so much money for smuggling arms?

Shi Zhijian didn't want to get involved in these dirty things, so he always acted as a hands-off shopkeeper and let Badgar and Hu Juncai, a pair of good partners who were not afraid of hardship, tiredness, and especially not being afraid of getting dirty, do the work.

Hu Juncai is a lawyer who knows a lot about this matter. He relies on laundering chips in casinos, buying and selling stocks and promissory notes to help launder the black money.

But now here in London, Shi Zhijian has to do it himself.

Shi Zhijian originally intended to leave this kind of matter to the female lawyer He Jiali, but he was a little worried, fearing that the female lawyer's sense of justice would "kill her master".

After much deliberation, I decided to be the middleman and build connections to help Colonel Gill, and the people Shi Zhijian built connections with were these three "outstanding young people in London" in front of him.

"The specific situation is this. I can help Major Gill launder a small amount of money by starting a film company. To be precise, as long as the drama "Blair Witch" becomes a big hit, we can use the movies produced by Shinhwa Entertainment in the future.

Use the box office to keep bleaching those black gold!"

"But -" Shi Zhijian pondered for a moment, "Far water cannot save a nearby fire. The current situation still requires the help of three people!"

After hearing this, Wade spread his hands again: "As I said, I am in charge of taxation. I really can't help with such a difficult task as money laundering!"

"Yes, it's okay if you ask us to check the water meter and the electric meter, but we don't understand money laundering!" Fatty Daniel and Thin Thomas also shied away.

Shi Zhijian had expected that they would say this. Anyway, he had done what he should do as a middleman, and next he would watch Colonel Gill's performance.

Colonel Gill's performance is very direct -

With a snap, he pulled out the gun from his waist and placed it on the table. The sound was so loud that the water in the tea cup splashed out.

Wade and the three of them were excited and looked at Jill together.

"I came from a military background and am a rough man. I don't know many rules! Since my dear Lord Earl asked me to explain it to everyone, I will just say a few words!"

Gill stared at the three of them eagerly: "First of all, I will establish a company with the help of Lord Earl. I will pay the water, electricity and taxes of this company on time! As for what this company does specifically, everyone will know.

Don’t ask any more questions!”

"Especially in terms of taxation -" Jill looked at Wade, "Our accounts will be very detailed and we will try our best to satisfy the verification of your tax bureau. Of course, it is impossible to do everything perfectly, so when the time comes

Please Mr. Wade be more tolerant!"

Needless to say, this is a leather bag company that helps launder money. If Wade and others investigate carefully, they will reveal their flaws.

"Now that the three of you have given your opinions, do you support it or oppose it?"

As he spoke, he saw Major Gill reaching out and holding the gun on the table, his eyes sharp.

Who is Wade?

One of the three heroes of the British Empire, and the best among them, he also has a temper. If he is easily frightened by others, there is no need for him to come out and mess around.

Immediately, Wade stabilized his mind, smiled softly, picked up the tea cup and took a sip before saying: "Although it is my first time here, I know that this private room is not very soundproof, especially when shooting something, it can be heard outside.

arrive."

"Yeah, we can't say for sure what will happen then." Daniel and Thomas followed Wade's lead. "So I still advise Colonel Gill, you'd better not use violence!"

"In addition," Wade added, "Although we are not soldiers, we are not intimidating. The two of them are in charge of the British water and electricity industry, and I am in charge of the taxation work. I also know many powerful people, but have you seen us surrender?

?No, no!"

Wade put down his teacup as he spoke, stood up and said to Colonel Gill with a smile: "Then you should understand our position now. I am a tax collector of the British Empire. I serve the British Empire wholeheartedly. I will never succumb to a cold hand."

With a gun!"

"Yes, so do we!" Daniel and Thomas stood up with Wade, assuming an unyielding high posture. "We are the water and electricity commanders of the British Empire. We are in charge of the water and electricity lifeblood of the British Empire. We will never succumb to violence.

Come on! Yes, God can prove it!”

The atmosphere instantly became tense.

Colonel Gill did not expect that these three people would not try his best, and now they were riding a tiger with strange expressions.

"Bah bang bang!"

Suddenly someone applauded.

But it was Shi Zhijian who acted as the middleman.

Shi Zhijian clapped his hands, stood up, smiled and said to the three Wades: "The spirit of the three of you is commendable, I admire you very much!"

"Humph!" Wade and the other three looked at Shi Zhijian with disdain.

Shi Zhijian: "As a mediator, there are many things I should not say, but seeing the stalemate between you two, I have to stand up."

"What are you going to say?" Wade and the others looked at Shi Zhijian with a high profile.

"How many do you want?"

"Uh, what?"

"I ask how much money do you want? How many red envelopes will Colonel Gill give you to satisfy you?"

"God, you are insulting us!" Wade reacted fiercely and said righteously to Shi Zhijian, "If it weren't for your status as an earl, we would..."

Before he could finish his words——

"Is three million enough?"

"Damn it, you're still insulting us!"

"Five million!"

"Do you think we are the kind of people who are greedy for money?"

"Ten million!"

"God, your words make me sick!"

"Twenty million!"

"We are the most loyal servants of the British Empire!"

"Thirty million a year, no more!"

"Don't you understand human language? Well, 30 million, it must be in pounds!"

"Well, deal!"

Shi Zhijian stretched out his hand towards Wade.

Wade and Shi Zhijian shook hands firmly.

Next to him, Colonel Gill just looked stupid, Damn, is this okay?

Coming from a military background, he realized for the first time that pounds were more useful than his gun!

…

The food and wine are served.

After the last round of negotiations, the atmosphere in the private room became very different.

The fat man Daniel and the thin man Thomas hugged four beautiful white women on the left and right.

The white beauties also wear Chinese cheongsam, which is a very attractive combination of Chinese and Western styles.

The beauties put food into their mouths and poured wine for them, making the fat man and the skinny man dizzy.

Sir Wade took a sip of the wine and drank happily. The cheongsam-clad girl who was waiting for him quickly took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his mouth.

Sir Wade kissed the cheongsam girl happily on the cheek. He turned around and saw the fat man and the thin man acting wildly. He couldn't help frowning and scolded: "Daniel, Thomas, you have to pay attention to your manners! Damn it, don't be so frivolous, okay?

good!"

After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and touched the cheongsam girl next to him twice. Then he looked at Shi Zhijian with unsatisfied eyes and said, "Thank you very much, Lord Earl! If it hadn't been for your introduction, we wouldn't have known Colonel Gill so well."

friends!"
