Chapter 496 (1/2)
The good luck seemed to have run out, and then Li Zitao lost both games. Along with little Mary on the way back, he was calm and angry and refused to pay attention to him.
”On purpose, on purpose.” Little Mary thought bitterly.
Li Zitao has long forgotten about this matter. For him, it is just an entertainment to spend time with his wife. It is not important to win or lose.
It's enough to see the smile on Mary's face.
About the price of weapons, aegis passed to him, Thomson $52 each, colt $33, browning $135.
The average price of a bullet is 5 shots per cent, and it takes 20 million rounds to train and clear the forest.
The total price of this single business is nearly 500000 US dollars, which is a rare large order for aegis. Considering the transportation and the risks to be undertaken, it can earn about 25 US dollars, which is worthy of being a profiteering industry.
As soon as a gun goes off, money is just like paper. No wonder there is a saying that ”gold is ten thousand taels” when a cannon is fired.
Mexico's rapid response force, which has demonstrated its ability and professionalism, and its efforts to crack down on domestic crime, have made the top officials of the United States look at it frequently.
Especially in the aspect of weapons, Thomson's outstanding performance in actual combat made the army generals excited.
It's just that the military's cuts have made the military's spending tight. There are too many places to spend, but the money is more and more said, which makes the military leaders more dissatisfied with the Congress.
But no matter how dissatisfied they are, they can only bear it. Now that the market economy of the whole society is on the verge of collapse, this is the most important thing.
As for military spending, Roosevelt publicly said that the status quo would be maintained in the short term, and even reduced again if necessary.
This is not the time to make money on arms, at least in North America.
In South Africa, Central Asia and other places, many people contacted and wanted to buy arms from the aegis Bureau. Only considering the impact, Li Zitao had not agreed.
He needed a suitable agent. After learning about Stephen's action from the aegis report, Li Zitao thought that he could make a try.
”Lincoln barrows is smart, calm and decisive. He is most concerned about his family and is good at avoiding direct violence.”
In the Waldorf Hotel, Li Zitao holds a personal file in his hand. Lincoln sits opposite him, listening to his story without expression.
”I heard that you have more than 50 people under you now. Are they reliable?” Let the file on the table, Li Zitao looked at him with a smile.
”Relatively reliable.” Said Lincoln.
”Interesting answer... Did Stephen tell you why you came?” It's relatively reliable. It's not like what a foreigner can say.
”He just told me there was something I needed to do.” Lincoln shook his head.
”Yes.” Nodding and smiling, Li Zitao continued, ”listen to your business in hand. I want you to act as the arms business of aegis Bureau.”
Lincoln's expression was frozen, his head bowed to reflect. After half a voice, he asked, ”is there permission?”
”With permission, do I still need you?” Li Zitao's words were a little merciless, but Lincoln felt at ease.
It's better to know the truth and let him have a correct judgment on the risk than to be fooled into selling money.
”What do I need to do?” Lincoln decided to do it.
