Wells actually stood up directly, his eyes filled with desire:
"If there is still such an opportunity, I will do whatever it takes! This kind of business is a dream come true!"
"I was deeply impressed by the order you provided at that time... Oh my God, 10,000 repeating rifles were given at a premium of more than twice. Lei Mingden made two years of profits on this order. I arrived
Now I can’t figure out why the buyer paid such a high price!”
"We don't have to go through complicated procedures to declare to the federal government, we don't have to transport them, and we don't have to print numbers on these weapons... This is simply..."
"It's money!" Mozhi said for Wells, feeling secretly happy in his heart.
Wells also looked serious and complimented: "Based on this order, Uncle Pence is a friend of the Federo family, and the 30% equity gift is worth every penny!"
The new head of Federo's family is full of capitalists' desire for wealth, and more importantly... through this test, he finally came into contact with the specific information about the original batch of arms.
Ten thousand rifles were ordered at a high price... According to Vera's speculation, the buyer is most likely from the southern tribe. Although there is no evidence, it is reasonable, and this can also be linked to the unusually high premium - Southern Province
There are few large-scale factories, and producing rifles is just a good wish. If you want to obtain weapons, of course you can only smuggle them from the mainland. The price is not high. Which factory dares to produce weapons without serial numbers?
The federal government and Pandora have very strict management of firearms. As a military industrial enterprise under official supervision, Lei Mingden needs to declare every firearm produced to the federal government. The procedures are complicated and the review is strict... As for smuggling, this step is of course bypassed.
, leaving only pure production tasks, and there is no need to even register the gun with a serial number. It is easy to make, has no trouble, and the price is high. No wonder Wells was impressed by such a good thing.
There is another key piece of information! Wells did not know the whereabouts of this batch of guns, which allowed Mo Zhi to make a general guess about the entire smuggling process:
As a manufacturer, the Federo family is only responsible for production, excluding transportation, and it was learned from his mouth that Pence Rodman was the provider of this order... This is already certain, because Wells said that it was exactly
Because Pence provided this order, Federo Sr. gave him 30% of the equity as a gift.
So that's it... If so, then the complicated situation ahead is finally clear... The only thing that's a bit inconsistent is that although Brother Pence provided the arms smuggling order to Federo and his son, considering his identity, Nan
People from the tribe probably won't find him directly - smuggling arms to the director of public security is equivalent to a mouse working as an escort for a cat...
However, if you think about this illogical point for a moment, you will get a more reasonable answer!
Ai Liang!
Ai Liang is an important intermediate link...
This is easy to explain. The people of the southern tribe should have cooperated more closely with Ai Liang, so they submitted the weapon requirements to Ai Liang... And Ai Liang was cooperating with the Public Security Department on the origin stone transaction commission, and he happened to have the ability to seduce Pence.
The opportunity to "go to sea".
The results have said it all. In the end, Brother Pence failed to withstand the temptation of wealth, knowingly broke the law and took advantage of his position as the Sheriff to join this illegal business.
Based on the information he had already mastered, Mobi felt that a large number of his brain cells had died, and he finally figured out the entire outline... The actual situation coincided with the logic, so this should be the case!
...for an arms smuggling order, the rich Southern Province spent a lot of money, and the middlemen Ai Liang and Pence made money along with it. Lei Mingden also made a lot of money as a weapons manufacturer, so after Pence stepped down, the supply chain
Broken in the middle…
This shows that... Pence Rodman is not just making money as a manufacturer in this transaction because he owns 30% of the equity, but he should use his position as the Sheriff to also become a player in this supply chain.
A crucial part.
Otherwise, the Federo family should just give Lao Peng a sum of money, and there is no need to pay a price like equity... If Pence is just a vampire lying in the supply chain, he probably can't afford such a "heavy thank you"
The Federo family are not fools.
Not only Pence, but also Ai Liang... The mysterious Ai Liang should also play a necessary role in a certain link, and is not simply a middleman.
Thinking of this, a word suddenly popped out of his mind:
transportation!
That's right! Apart from finding the manufacturer, the only difficulty in arms smuggling is transportation... The Prime Minister's Province is on the easternmost side of the Rodinia continent, while the Southern Province is on the southernmost side, separated by the Black Sea Province and the Black Bay.
, it is not easy to secretly transport such a large amount of weapons.
There are many checkpoints and toll booths on federal highways.
Railways, not to mention, can only be more strict...
Brother Pence is the director of public security and should be able to secretly transport this batch of "goods" out of Jehol City, but there should be no way outside the area... This may be Ai Liang's role...
Well, it should be like this... Mu Zhi couldn't help but think for a long time. The cigar in his hand had already burned down, and the ash joint could no longer bear its own mass, and it fell into a ball with a "snap".
It seemed that the carpet had been burned, but Mozhi was thinking rapidly, while Wells was in excitement and longing, and neither of them cared...
Mo Zhi used his foot to stub out the cigarette ashes, and when he saw black smoke rising from the carpet at the sole of his shoe, he continued:
"The next order will probably be bigger!"
Ten thousand rifles sounds like a lot, but in fact it doesn't arm many people. Mo Bo made a comparison with the historical knowledge of the previous life and easily came to this conclusion... At that time, Hanyang made 1.08 million old sleeves. Although
This number has no reference to the Rodinia mainland, but it at least shows that to supply a war, 10,000 rifles are just a drizzle...
Moreover, the southern province has the largest population among the nine provinces in the mainland.
The cooperation that Ai Liang wants to restart, that is, the second batch of smuggled arms, should be greatly improved in quantity. After all, with the successful experience of the first time, the wealthy people in the southern tribe should increase their purchases.
This is not to deceive Wells, it is just inferred from the situation...
Wells just seemed to have experienced a dream... When he first took over the Federo family, it was at a time when everything was waiting for something to be done. If he could do such a big business, there is no doubt that not only the family would be able to completely stabilize his own
In terms of performance, he can even surpass the "old man" he calls him - the God of Business Rain in Hot Spring City, Mills Federo.
Who would have known that before the first sweet dream was over, "Uncle Pence" in front of me would immediately give him another bigger one.
Wells couldn't stop his legs from shaking... He was a pure businessman and a capitalist, and of course he had an obsession with money and wealth that ordinary people couldn't understand.
"Don't get too happy yet, let me ask you a question..." Mo Zhi saw the head of the Federo family wandering in front of him, and reminded him at an inappropriate time:
"Can Lei Mingden be produced now? I mean, is there enough production capacity to handle large orders?"
"Ah!" Wells finally came back to his senses, his face suddenly lonely:
"I can't..."
Fuck... I knew it! I was speechless... I knew you were so happy just now. The dream was so beautiful that you forgot it was a dream.
Let’s consider the reality of the situation!
The federal radicals are eyeing Lei Mingden. The Public Security Bureau has issued low-price acquisitions several times in a row, and it must be busy in other aspects. How can it be possible for Lei Mingden to be able to produce Ping'an?
At least, they will also create some pressure on Lei Mingdeng, and these calculations are likely to be happening right now...
“What actions is the Sheriff’s Department taking?”
Mo Zhi asked in a deep voice, inserting the cigar into the ashtray and squandering it.
Wells was bitter and resentful: "In every aspect..."
In the eyes of unpredictable surprise, the head of the Federo family painfully stated:
"Raw materials... raw materials are simply not enough. You know, although we have workers and assembly lines to produce firearms, we don't have steel..."
"Since Maiev came to power, the steel mills we originally cooperated with have reduced their supply volumes. Our inventory is only enough to barely complete the previous unfinished orders."
"Also, there is not enough wood...the rifle needs wood, Uncle Pence, Lei Mingden can't find a wood supplier now..."
"There are still bullets, no gunpowder, and currently there is no copper. We can only transport it long distance to the Black Sea Province or the Northern Province. There is no supply of goods in Shouyang Province."
"Actually, Lei Mingden has been completely isolated..."
Wells Businessman "expertly" recounted the current situation, and finally added: "There are still many skilled old workers who have resigned due to various strange problems. The number of production workers in Leimingden is gradually decreasing...I
I suspect that there is also the shadow of the Public Security Department behind this."
I'm dizzy! I feel like I can't laugh or cry anymore.
Listening to your description, Lei Mingden is going from bad to worse, and soon it will only be an empty shell with only an assembly line...can this still be considered a military industrial enterprise?
It’s rare that my eldest nephew, your condition has reached this level. When you hear that there is a big order, you can still have such sweet dreams... I have to say, your sleep quality is really good.
Unpredictably, it was difficult to get rid of the urge to yell at "Shabi", so he could only snort heavily.
"What should we do?" Wells became anxious: "What should we do?"
"What can we do to restore production capacity? We can't miss this big order!"
What the hell do I know what to do? I'm not your biological uncle... Mo Zhi silently complained in his heart, but he also understood something.
Ai Liang should have already known about this situation, so he chose to cooperate with Brother Pence after the assassination. For Pence, the content of this cooperation was to help Wells deal with the predicament at hand.
Taking a deep breath, Mu Zhi stood up: "That ally of mine should also have some tricks."
"As for how to solve the current dilemma, I need to think about it and meet with him."
This is true, because this is a good excuse. You can use it to communicate with Boss Ai to see if he has any mature methods, or ask to send some people to help, or... it would be better to send two singers to accompany you.
Ahem... Just kidding, this is a routine excuse to try out some new information from Ai Liang, such as how he and Pence did the "transportation" thing, and this time... is it the same as the previous one?
Is the process the same?
Well...this is indeed an entry point.
Seeing Mo Zhi getting up, Wells didn't hold back. Since Uncle Pence was determined to help, any action requires preparation time and detailed planning... He was very satisfied with his uncle's current state, and he obviously wanted to help him sincerely.
Revitalize Thunderden.
Wouldn't it be better to have Uncle Pence at the front...
After sending Pence out of the reception room, Wells's heart moved and he suddenly shouted: "Uncle Pence, wait a moment."
"Oh?" Mo Cai asked in surprise, unable to think of anything else that the other party had not discussed clearly.
"Julia Federo is in the room." Wells suddenly showed a playful expression: "Uncle Burns, haven't you always been interested in her?"
"Julia..." Mo Zhi was stunned for a few seconds, and then a middle-aged lady in luxurious clothes with tears on her face appeared in her mind... Mrs. Federo, Julia Federo, who she was still using at the time
Mind reading checked her.
However, another strange thought gradually grew bigger in his mind. Lao Mo did not recover from his shock, but fell into an even greater shock:
"you mean…"
"That's right..." Wells smiled sadly: "When my father was alive, I still had to consider my reputation. Now that he is gone, what's the use of keeping this woman?"
"I remember that Uncle Pence used to always have eyes for my stepmother... Hehe, now that we have resumed our cooperative relationship, I will give her to you."
"This is sincerity..."
I can't afford it... Mu Zhi was already numb and forced himself to stand firm. The despair he felt when his opponent threw two "Kings" in the last Landlord game came to mind.
"Uncle Burns, don't have any grudges...I remember you were not like this." Wells explained without reading the foreboding smile on his unpredictable face:
"As for women... Haha, if it weren't for reputation, the old man wouldn't insist on marrying a wife. There are so many concubines... After all, he is so old."
"Now that he is gone, those women don't matter anymore. Those who are willing to leave will be given severance pay. Those who are not willing to leave...except for those who have heirs from the Federo family, they are all willing to follow me."
"I'm just playing for fun..." Wells showed a nonchalant expression, as if he was trying to persuade Mo Zhang.
Uncle, look how free and easy I am!
I...I have lost my ability to speak. I just have two thoughts running back and forth in my mind:
You kid, you are such a talent...
Wells, it’s not that you don’t have normal human feelings, you are a beast! You took away your father’s harem and even gave me your stepmother.
"You're welcome!" Wells misunderstood "uncle's" hesitation: "Now that we have reached a business cooperation, we will be a family from now on."
"In the upper class of the Ironborn like us, who cares about those useless rules... If my uncle doesn't accept my nephew's kindness, I'll feel out of touch!"
Guiquan is really terrible... He Yi nodded blankly, tongue-tied:
"All right."
It’s hard to deny such kindness...
Edit first and then revise. I still have more than 1,000 words in my manuscript. I will complete it and post it tomorrow. This will make July a complete success.
