The new market at the auction seemed to be celebrating the New Year. Not only were the streets cleaned exceptionally clean, the rebels even hung ribbons on the street lamps along the road. All the soldiers in the city put on clean and tidy military uniforms, all M4A1 assault rifles on their backs, even optical sights, and 1/3 of the 40mm grenade launchers.
They even have standard steel helmets painted in camouflage colors and military leather boots... You know, among the troops that many warlords all over the world claim to save the world, it is the world's number one rebel organization that can achieve this equipment rate.
Whether it is to support the facade or the size of the Kokang Allied Forces, it is meaningless to the VIPs who came here.
From 9:00 in the morning, a continuous stream of private passenger planes landed on the airport runway in the new market, and one after another, world-class arms dealers came to visit. The clothes and lighters used are all 24K pure gold and diamond-studded luxury goods, and every move and gesture shows a prominent social status, and these are all made with the blood of the dead, although they don't admit it. The phrase that is often used in defense is, "The guns we sell are not guilty, and those who pull the trigger are guilty."
According to regulations, each arms dealer can bring two bodyguards. They are either special forces kings or professional killers. Anyway, those who followed the beasts were naturally all murderous beasts.
The job of picking up the airport and arranging the rest is all in charge of Yuri, who is as hospitable as the host with a smile on his face.
Among these distinguished guests, there is one who has the closest relationship with Yuri, that is, Bashkir of the Damao Kingdom, an arms dealer nicknamed "The Villain". The T90 main battle tanks that Yuri sold to Luo Xing came from this big man. guy. It is said that he used to belong to the KGB organization, and he was also a close buddy with Emperor Pu. To be able to be as big as today and still alive, the relationship with the authorities of Damao country is so good that they wear the same pair of pants.
They probably come from the same ethnic group and can chat in Russian. Their favorites are Cuban cigars and vodka. Yuri and Bashkir are naturally familiar with each other.
At 10 o'clock in the morning, Bashkir's passenger plane landed on the runway rumblingly. With a big bald head and a white beard, Bashkir looked like Santa Claus who forgot to wear his robe, but in his hands The gift sent out by the Internet is definitely not a gift wrapped with a ribbon, but a handful of murderous weapons.
"Hey, you old guy picks up the plane? Where are all the little bikini pussies? Or, you're wearing a thong? Thank goodness, I don't want to see your old ass." Bashkir Seeing Yuri, he joked with a smile.
"Little girl, you have played so much, what is so rare? If you really want to see my old ass, you can just ask a reasonable price." Yuri and Bashkir hugged each other jokingly.
When the two got closer, Bashkir stopped smiling and whispered, "Brother, 'that person' is very interested in the goods in your hand, 2.2 billion US dollars, don't play some boring auction Yes, give it to me directly, give you the money, and I will leave immediately."
"Friends, familiarity is familiarity, business is business, you can't break the rules. If I just let you fly away with good goods, I can't explain to those big guns. Since the big guys behind you are determined to win, Why are you afraid of bidding with others?" Yuri replied with a smile.
"You, that's it. It's really boring to recognize money but not people." Bashkir stopped talking and let go of the old man in his arms. The relationship he had known for too long let Bashkir know that this kind of bribery is fundamental. I can't impress Yuri, but since it is the task above, I still have to give it a try anyway.
"Hey, go and adjust the time difference first, I have prepared good vodka and black caviar for you in the room, and I promise not to charge you, lest you say that I recognize money but not people." Yuri patted the old man. brother's shoulders.
"Okay, then wait for you to sing a big show for us at night." Bashkir took two big bodyguards into the limousine and drove away from the airport.
When it was close to noon, Yuri did not wait for the last Chinese arms dealer to arrive, but Luo Xing's convoy instead. He changed into a straight white military uniform and hung all the medals that could be hung. Unexpectedly, he still wore half a white mask on his face.
"Commander Luo Xing, your outfit today is really special, it seems that what we are going to hold is an auction, not a masquerade ball?" Yuri teased softly.
"After all, that little bastard is not dead yet, so we still have to beware of the risk of being sniped." Luo Xing tapped the mask on his face with one finger. There is no way to shoot easily."
"You can be considered old and cunning." Yuri's admiration was beyond words, and at this moment, a small passenger plane landed on the runway of the New Market Airport, opened the hatch, and the person who walked out was not Yuri. The well-known Chinese arms dealer was Sui Tao, who was carrying a black suitcase with a solemn face.
At first Yuri thought that this person was the bodyguard who got off the plane first, but Sui Tao stepped forward, and no one got off the plane behind him.
"Have you seen such a young arms dealer?" Luo Xing also sensed something was wrong.
"I don't know him, and he is not my guest." Yuri said seriously.
At this time, more than a dozen soldiers with live ammunition immediately stood in front of the two officers and surrounded Sui Tao with their guns raised.
"Is this how you entertain guests?" Sui Tao was forced to stop and asked coldly.
"The problem is, we don't even know whether you are an enemy or a friend? Dare to ask the little brother's name." Yuri said very politely.
"I'm just a nobody. You can call me 'S'. The arms dealer you invited has been arrested by the Celestial Dynasty and is now in prison. If you want to talk about business, I'm enough." Sui Tao straightened himself up. suit.
"Are you an official person?" Yuri exclaimed. In principle, at times like this, no one would directly arrange personnel to participate in it.
"You asked, and I won't answer you. I can only say that I have enough money and enough sincerity." Sui Tao straightened his collar.
"I also said that I would come to meet our 'big customer' in person, but unexpectedly, a bigger one came..." Luo Xing nodded, motioning for the guards to come forward and search him.
Sui Tao didn't bring anything with him, including the secret communication equipment with Shen Ming. He opened the suitcase, and there was only a satellite phone in it. When the guard was about to pick up the phone to check, Sui Tao, who had been quietly cooperating with the search, suddenly moved, and pushed the soldier to the ground, his arm was twisted to the edge of breaking behind by the grappling technique.
The soldiers beneath him bared their teeth and screamed in pain, and the fellow soldiers beside them were loaded with bullets, all aimed at Sui Tao's head.
"Listen well, I can only make this phone once, either to notify the payment or to notify the failure of the mission. My life can be lost here, but the phone must never be touched by others." Sui Tao looked around coldly. Looking around, the expression seemed to be thinking about how to kill everyone around him.
Just when the atmosphere was about to explode, Luo Xing came forward applauding, "Good! Good! Good! Mr. S is indeed a loyal soldier like iron, Luo Xing has opened his eyes today."
Yuri also quietly signaled to let the guards step aside, and the soldier who was pushed to the ground by Sui Tao was also lucky to keep his arm.
Sui Tao put the satellite phone back into the suitcase and stood up, as calm as if no one had ever pointed a gun at his head.
"May I ask if Mr. S has any taboos, Luo has specially prepared some thin wine for you." Luo Xing was very polite to this guest from the Celestial Dynasty.
"It's not necessary. I've already eaten the meal on the plane. Send me to the station first. It's all just for the auction at night." Sui Tao said ungratefully.
Although Sui Tao is not likable, the amount he can pay is likely to be the highest among the few major customers. Money can make up for all shortcomings, and even attract the same sex.
On the way back to the stationed hotel, Luo Xing was alone in a car, while Yuri and Sui Tao sat in the limousine.
"Mr. S, what would you like to drink?" Yuri opened the bar in the car and asked as a landlord.
"Qing Shui, thank you." Sui Tao replied like a robot.
"Mr. S doesn't need to be so serious. We are not enemies, but friends. There may have been some misunderstandings in the past, but that is not worth worrying about." Yuri relied on his old ways, poured himself a glass of vodka, and handed it over Give Sui Tao a bottle of mineral water.
"I don't care about the relationship between us at all. I only came here for one purpose, to bring that communication cipher machine home." Sui Tao was determined to win.
"Hey, it seems that Mr. S is well prepared. But because this is your first time participating in this kind of event, I still need to explain the relevant rules to you. The valuation of this communication cipher machine is 2 billion U.S. dollars, and the auction The starting price of the meeting is 1.5 billion, and each increase is based on 10 million US dollars. The payment method of the auction is cash, and only old banknotes without joint numbers are accepted. Diamonds, stocks, futures, flour, and local products are not accepted. Within the scope. Once the auction is completed, the funds need to be airlifted here within 12 hours, and we will deliver the goods to the buyer. During this period, if the buyer repents or the transaction is interrupted due to force majeure, the deposit you paid, That is the Thunderbolt Huo Wuzhi 10, you can’t drive it back.” Yuri smiled while drinking vodka.
"Don't bother Mr. Yuri with this. We have nothing but a lot of foreign exchange reserves. If you want cash, you can give it in cash. The task I received is to ensure that the encryption machine is returned to our hands at all costs." Sui Tao said firmly.
"May I ask, what is the price of 'whatever it takes'?" Yuri asked curiously.
"Within $4 billion."
"..." Yuri's eyeballs almost popped out.
