From Arms Dealer To King of War - Chapter 500
Chapter 500 Live Trading
Boss Joe didn’t expect that the price tag of the dignified triple canopy for elite mercenaries was not too high.
This almost death-like mission to protect the ambassadors is actually only 80,000 yuan per person…
That ‘trigger’ is a retired SEAL, ‘crazy’ is a Ranger, and ‘hammer’ is a Marine.
When they set off, there were six people in a team, but now there are only three left.
These people are not the top masters that the triple canopy has kept for a long time, they are temporary workers.
It’s like a contractor picking up a job, you only start looking for someone after you take over the job.
This group of people is even worse, because Eric used the pressure of money and connections to force the triple canopy to come together.
They didn’t know each other until hours ago!
This is the consequence of the corporateization of military contracting companies. In order to reduce costs and increase efficiency, those soldiers who are not top fighters have become a number in the company’s performance.
You complete the task, I will give you money, and if you die, I will send a pension of 3 times the salary to your family according to the contract.
That’s all!
‘Trigger’ they can say that they are elites, but the guys who are still far from the top experts are actually the most embarrassing.
Annual salary of 100,000, additional bonuses, a training camp to settle down, and it is not their turn to be supported by the company.
And the ordinary visa with an annual salary of 30,000 to 50,000, the task is to go to Afghanistan to patrol the long-term workers.
Such a person earns a lot of money a year. If he is willing to work hard, he can earn 100,000 to 150,000 US dollars a year, but if he dies, the pension will be a lot less than that of a contract worker.
It was not the first time Qiaojia had heard of this situation, but it was the first time he learned that there were also ‘foreman’s in the mercenary business.
This kind of person has contacts with major military contracting companies, and specializes in undertaking small projects subcontracted by large companies, usually for tasks such as security and defense.
Boss Qiao really wants to contact similar people. With the expansion of business, the manpower of P·B can no longer keep up. Sometimes it is good to have some temporary workers.
Like the French guy ‘One Eye’, everyone gets along very happily.
What Qiaojia didn’t expect was that he wanted to get the satellite phone that the three of ‘Trigger’ got online. After calling, the other party hung up the phone impatiently when they heard that he had announced his family name…
This made Boss Joe very upset, and he remembered the name ‘Gunhuo’ deeply!
Joga didn’t know that the ‘Gunfire’ who came from Tripoli to support his companions got lost in the west of the class. How could he be in the mood to answer business calls?
This guy borrowed a private plane from the oil tycoon he was protecting, and took two people to take a risky skydive into Benghazi, only to find that he couldn’t find anyone as soon as he got off the plane.
………
P·B’s convoy hit the road smoothly, and their goal was Abidal, a small city at the administrative junction of Benghazi and Fati in the east.
Those workers are all from the domestic communication company, where they are responsible for restoring mobile phone communications in the eastern part of Libya.
Now Abidal City is a battle zone between the National Army and Al Qaeda, and those workers are trapped because of the war!
The National Army’s control over the territory is too poor, and the terrorists like to fight in the city, because they know that they can use civilians to avoid heavy firepower.
Abidal is not very far from the gas field, and it took them only an hour to reach the distance of more than 60 kilometers.
When the convoy arrived at Abidal, Qiaojia found it impossible to get in.
The national army blocked the main road, with tanks, armored vehicles, and rocket launchers, but they did not go into the city. They only arranged for some soldiers driving armed pickups to fight fiercely with the terrorists in the city.
From a distance of several kilometers, you can see the flames everywhere in the city.
Boss Joe understands this situation. Heavy weapons cannot be deployed in this kind of urban street fighting, and can only serve as human shields. The National Army obviously cannot afford to lose, and life is cheaper for them.
Qiaojia didn’t like this situation very much. He dragged Li Weiguo forward to negotiate, but he didn’t expect the officer in charge of the defense line to ignore them.
Li Weiguo turned his head and used the satellite phone to seek help from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. When he wanted them to put pressure on Haftar of the National Army, Boss Qiao frowned and took out two rolls of dollar bills, gestured, and then walked in front of the officer. …
“I want to go in. There are workers from Huaguo inside. Give me some news. The money is yours.”
The officer looked greedily at the two rolls of banknotes, picked up the radio and called…
Soon someone on the radio gave a reply…
“A group of Chinese people are trapped in the market on the east side. We are currently fighting fiercely with Al Qaeda, and we can’t check more information.”
The middle-aged officer glanced at Li Weiguo, who was anxiously making a phone call, and then said pretending to be concerned: “Your convoy can’t pass through the city, especially those passenger cars.”
As he spoke, he naturally took the banknotes from Qiaojia’s hand and stuffed them into his pocket, and then said: “You can go in, and I will notify my people to mark you as friendly troops, but those buses had better wait where they are, and we will protect them.”
How could Choga trust this guy?
He turned his head and gestured to Antal, then looked around, pointed to a dozen old-fashioned military trucks parked on the gravel ground, and said: “I want to buy 6 trucks, give me a price, You know they won’t be needed…”
Of course the officer knew that Boss Joe was implying that many of his people would die.
However, this practice of selling military supplies in front of everyone still made him hesitate.
Qiaojia couldn’t see this guy’s squirm, he turned around and went back to the car, took a small bag out, walked up to the officer, unzipped the zipper and showed him, 10 stacks of hundred-dollar bills were sealed in transparent plastic Seal the bag and put it neatly in the bag…
Seeing that the officer was still a little hesitant, Qiaojia pulled out a stack and stuffed it into his pocket, saying, “Now there are 90,000 left, in three seconds, the offer will only be 80,000 in three seconds…”
“make a deal!”
The officer, who had never seen so much money, held Choga’s hand and said, “I’ll give you 6 cars, but I have to wait for my people to unload everything on them.”
Joga glanced at his watch, nodded and said, “15 minutes, I’ll give you 15 minutes…”
Li Weiguo, who was on the phone, saw Qiaojia’s behavior throughout the whole process. He quickly explained the situation on the phone, and then walked to Qiaojia’s side with a look of embarrassment, and said, “Thank you, Jackal, my side It was too rushed…”
Joga has been waiting for Antar’s investigation results, and in the face of Li Weiguo’s thanks, he shook his head indifferently and said: “They are all from our own, so there is no need to be too polite.
In fact, it is not impossible to enter by force, but I don’t think it is necessary. ”
As Qiaojia pointed at the trucks that were about to be delivered, he hesitated and said, “We don’t have enough manpower, can you help coordinate a few truck drivers?”
Li Weiguo didn’t expect Qiaojia to pay the ‘travel money’ and get the truck, which surprised him…
“Yes, yes, there are not many construction sites, but there are many drivers. I will find some courageous ones to take charge of driving.”
Qiaojia shook his head and said: “Just find three people, I will arrange people to drive the other three cars, this time we will go separately, my people will find a safe path, and some people will **** you through Abidal to the east Wait for me on the road.
I will take 6 two armored vehicles and three trucks to pick up those workers…”
As he spoke, Qiaojia looked at Li Weiguo who was hesitant to speak, shook his head and said, “You have to listen to me. Now you just need to tell me who the workers are in charge of.”
Li Weiguo knew that this was not the time to be hypocritical, so he nodded decisively and said: “The worker in charge is called Zhao Shiyi, in his 50s, with a crew cut, black and thin.
I found someone, just ask me to talk to him.
By the way, bring a flag and they will believe you! ”
