Chapter 198 Black-Hearted Jimmy
Jimmy drove the Bentley out of the parking lot and the black alley, still savoring his coolness, and said, "In Texas, if you have heavy firepower and a bad temper, believe me, no one will dare to mess with you on the street. After all, no one wants to be blown up by a sudden grenade!"
"That batch of arms is a pity."
Zhang Ailun felt a little regretful. The chief leader was a frugal man and wanted to go over to recycle it, but was stopped by Jimmy. "A transaction is a transaction. They gave us money, so we have to give them the things. The grenade is a bonus from us."
I can see that you are definitely very well-behaved, but a little crazy.
"Take us to the city to have a look." Zhang Ailun saw that the deal had been completed. After all, since they were already here, he would feel a bit of a loss if he didn't go to the city.
Then he said to Sadie, "It will probably take another hour to sort out your batch of goods. How about going to taste some Texas delicacies? What do you think?"
"Of course, I have no objection, but are you always so jumpy when doing arms deals? It's really scary." Sadie was still not satisfied. She was sitting in the car and didn't know what was going on when suddenly gunshots were heard and a grenade was thrown!
It's so exciting! She is almost falling in love with this activity which is more exciting than racing.
"The clients I've done business with before were all very well-behaved. These black people are obviously not good trading partners. If they go even further, I don't mind recycling the items they ordered," Zhang Ailun replied.
It’s just that Jimmy is more aggressive in doing things, without dragging his feet or caring about the consequences.
There is no other way, just follow their way, they are locals.
Sadie smiled and said, "I like your confident answer. It makes me feel safe."
"Then can you pay me the balance in advance?" The chief leader's mind was full of money.
"Of course." Sadie readily agreed, took out $60,000 in cash, and put her hand on Zhang Allen's shoulder while handing it to him, taking advantage of him. "The remaining $20,000 will be paid after we return to Los Angeles. Do you have time? Perhaps we can cooperate more deeply then?"
"There will be a chance. But what do you mean by in-depth cooperation?" Zhang Ailun asked knowingly, pretending not to understand.
Sadie said with a drawn look, "Of course they are two people who admire each other and do something very meaningful."
"Hey, you two, there are other people in the car." Jim looked at the rearview mirror and couldn't help but remind them loudly, "I'm going to rent this car out later, and I don't want to make the seats sticky."
"Drive your car, okay? We are just communicating normally." Sadie was a little unhappy with him interrupting the atmosphere, and said unhappily: "If you don't speak, no one will think you are dumb."
"Ok." Jim shrugged helplessly and drove the car with a serious expression.
He muttered, "You are too impatient."
We soon arrived in the city. Compared with Los Angeles, which is known as the second largest city, Austin is obviously inferior. There seems to be no famous scenic spots worth visiting, and the food is also standard steak, red sausage, bread, and beer.
After wandering around for half an hour, there was nothing eye-catching to see except the street prostitutes and shirtless men carrying guns shopping in the supermarket. In the end, after a circle, I returned to the car rental shop opened by Jimmy.
After getting out of the car, Zhang Ailun also saw the vehicles parked in the car rental shop.
There are about twenty old Ford, Corolla, Chevrolet, and Citroen cars that can be bought for a few thousand dollars. The area is as large as a basketball court, which is considered a large scale.
The chief leader can tell at a glance that the origin of these cars is not so regular, and the quality of the tires is not guaranteed. Some are even old cars from around 05, and the import price may be one or two thousand US dollars.
If you have the parts to assemble, you can get a car for a few hundred dollars. Then you can find the scalper's registration information, clean the exterior to make it look nice, and register it under the name of a car rental company, and you can easily find someone to rent it out.
"Jimmy, how much money can you make from this?" Zhang Ailun asked puzzledly.
"Oh, that depends on the number of customers. We usually rent it to tourists from other places. The price for renting it in the city for a day is only a few dozen dollars. If you rent it across the city, the fee will be much more expensive. Replacing a new tire will cost hundreds of dollars. If the engine breaks down, I will make more money."
Jimmy smiled and revealed some industry insider information to him. "The quality of these old cars is not guaranteed. At least two tires will burst in 250 kilometers. I charge him $200 for each tire. Isn't it expensive? If he doesn't want to pay the fee, he has to find a tire shop to install new tires. Those tourists hate trouble the most, so they will definitely not argue too much with me. After returning, the old parts will be replaced with new ones. I will resell the new tires and install the broken tires. A short-term rental of a car can bring me at least $ in income."
"The most I've ever earned from one engine is $1900. The passenger was Korean, and this was a pre-written contract. They had to pay the compensation. It would be useless even if they hired a lawyer to sue me."
You are such a black person.
Zhang Ailun sighed. If someone didn't have any skills, he would be shot in the back sooner or later.
But this is indeed a way to make money, but people who have no ability and no connections can't do this.
"Where do you usually do the sorghum seed business?" Zhang Ailun asked again.
"In the storage warehouse of the car rental shop, my people are responsible for taking orders, pulling goods and transporting goods."
Jimmy took the two of them to visit the rental warehouse. When they opened the door, they saw large and small bags of adulterated sorghum seeds piled together, and there were staff members packing and shipping them on the assembly line.
"It's profitable to do this in Austin, but in order to avoid trouble, we basically ship to other places. After all, if a local receives our goods, they will definitely come to trouble me, and then it will be bad."
Jimmy said helplessly, "I accidentally got the shipping address wrong a while ago and offended a group of street thugs. They came over and smashed my car in the middle of the night. But luckily, I asked Jason's friend for help, hacked into their archives, found evidence of their crime, met with each other to discuss and ask for compensation, and finally settled the matter. Otherwise, I dare not think how much loss I would have suffered!"
"Are you talking about Blitzcrank?" Zhang Ailun asked.
"Yes, he is really capable, isn't he? He investigated everything those guys did! Because of that incident, I am considered to be famous here, and no one dares to deliberately cause trouble for me." Jimmy smiled proudly.
"Blitzcrank is indeed very powerful. He is a professional in this area, and we are also good friends." Zhang Ailun smiled.
"I've heard about it! After all, you are a big boss with a lot of assets under your name, bars, gun shops, auto repair shops, recycling stations. You can make a lot of money just by lying down every day! I can't compare to you." Jimmy said with a little envy.
To be frank, the chief leader can easily earn 7 to 8000 US dollars a day just by doing nothing with the assets and industries on hand. If the gold coins explode, it will be at least tens of thousands of US dollars.
They have already left the grassroots class of cattle and horses and transformed into thriving self-employed individuals.
But in order to make more money, you still have to keep working hard. When you can make millions a day without having to pay taxes, and have the power to protect yourself and let power serve you, then you will have qualified capital.
In the following time, Jimmy took the chief leader and Qiao Sen to visit the auto repair shop and strolled around the nearby shopping mall. Half an hour later, Sadie and Jimmy also received the news notification.
"The deal is done. I think it's time for us to leave." Sadie shook hands with Jimmy. "Anyway, I still want to thank you for your help."
"I'm doing this for my friend's sake. A friend of a friend is a friend. Get in the car, I'll take you to the suburban airport." Jimmy answered generously. Maybe all old Texans are like this.
After getting a few people in the car, Jimmy started the car and drove out of the city of Austin, escorting them all the way back to the airport.
Soon they arrived at the suburban airport. After getting off the car, Jimmy did not forget to remind the chief, "Dude, don't forget what you promised me. I really need some bulletproof vests."
I can see that. You are pretty wild here, and you offended that group of blacks again today. You never know when you will be retaliated.
In order to prevent his partner from being eliminated, Zhang Ailun took out his mobile phone, edited a link to the website page for him, and sent it to him. "You can contact my clerk here. Remember to find someone to package your personal information. The process still needs to be followed. In this regard, I recommend that you ask Blitz for help. I can get you at most three sets of security equipment now, because I don’t have extra stock. For the sake of being friends, the cost price of one set is US$3000!" Bulletproof vests only cost a few hundred dollars. The expensive part is the bulletproof ceramic plate. It is mainly difficult for ordinary people to buy them. It is also illegal to wear them on the streets without a CCW certificate. The local police came when they smelled the smell.
If you are black and you are wearing a turtle shell and you can't show your ID, you will be in big trouble. You will be directly identified as a robber and beaten to a pulp.
Zhang Ailun thought about it and decided to sell the equipment to people here under the guise of formal transactions. After arriving at the place, he would erase all the labels and numbers on them so that there would be no such equipment and he could expand his business.
It would be even better if I could open a branch store here, but unfortunately I don’t have the conditions now. I can only transport goods but cannot open a base.
Soon Jimmy's younger brother drove back with the Razer motorcycle gang. They exchanged a few words with each other. Seeing that the matter was over, Jimmy didn't want to waste their time, so he said hello and left with his men.
After boarding the private plane, it will take at least two hours to reach the Los Angeles town airport.
Zhang Ailun took out his cell phone and contacted Xige to ask him how things were going.
Sig: I have recruited several people. When they heard that they were going to work with Juanjin, they were all willing to work for you. I asked Bailey to take them to the Green Letter Shelter to take a bath and receive some novice equipment.
Sig: Guess what? I also met a ground crew captain on the street. He is also a devil teacher at the California Military Academy! He has a very loud name, called Crazy Captain! He is the kind of person who works hard in the army! I heard that he was also forced to retire and become a teacher because he offended someone. Later, he had a relationship beyond friendship with a student, and was exposed and fired! He lost his job, his wife ran away, and his face was gone. He was forced to wander the streets.
Zhang Ailun knew this a long time ago and replied: As long as he has the skills, is trustworthy and has good character, it's fine. Other hobbies are his personal life and I won't interfere, as long as they don't affect his work.
Sig: Boss, don't you want to modify your Wrangler? His modification skills are very good, and he can also adjust and modify firearms. He is the main operator, and with two assistants, as long as there are enough parts and mechanical equipment, he can get a car and install bulletproof devices in 24 hours.
Zhang Ailun: Is that so exaggerated?
Sig: He never rests when he is working. If he can finish something in one go, there is no need to leave it until tomorrow. That is why everyone calls him crazy.
Are you working so hard that your life is at stake?
I want to see how desperate he is!
The leader of the Beggars' Sect needs such talents!
Zhang Ailun praised Sig's efficiency and told him that he would be back in Los Angeles in two hours and would contact him then.
He put away his phone and was about to close his eyes to rest when Sadie, who was sitting in the front seat, handed the chief a well-wrapped gift box. Zhang Ailun looked at it in confusion, "What is this?"
"The gift I promised to give you is a body cast of Monica Bellucci."
Sadie blinked her eyes. "You don't like it? Then which female star do you like? Christiana Yeri? Catherine Zeta-Jones? Brooke Shields? Anne Hathaway? Don't worry, as long as you want it, I can find a way to get it for you!"
“…” Zhang Ailun was a little embarrassed.
Damn, this is the first time I see someone giving someone the Fiji Cup as a gift.
It's meaningless if you do this.
He has never considered other people's feelings at all. Do you think the leader is that kind of person?
How did you make deals with female celebrities and get them to endorse body molding?
"If you pull yourself in front of me, maybe I'll be more interested."
Zhang Ailun declined politely.
Sadie admired him even more. "Those popular stars are not short of money, but there will be opportunities in the future. They will always be short of money. I hope you won't refuse the gift I give you!"
"Okay." Zhang Ailun took it reluctantly.
"So? Do you want to play a thrilling game of Teamfight Tactics?" After giving the gift, Sadie invited the leader to play a game to relax.
Zhang Ailun felt that it would be impolite to refuse the other party again, so he immediately pulled Qiao Sen next to him to connect to the wifi and participate in this Genting game.
But the leader's luck was obviously very bad. Not to mention the three-star five-cost, he couldn't even get the two-star four-cost. He spent all his money and still couldn't get the full amount. In the end, Sadie drained his last drop of blood and Lao Ba was eliminated.
This game is not fun!!
While playing games and chatting, the plane flew smoothly in the air. Time passed quickly, and in about two hours we returned to the suburban town airport and glided onto the tarmac.
After getting off the plane, Sadie paid the remaining 20,000 US dollars to the chief leader as promised, and invited him with a smile: "This money is my extra expense for you, but don't you plan to treat me to a drink?"
"I have other things to take care of, maybe another day?" Zhang Ailun refused.
Don't think that the chief doesn't know what you are thinking.
"Ok! This is what you said, don't think about breaking the contract! Otherwise, I will definitely get someone to block your door!" After saying this, Sadie happily led her people away.
Zhang Ailun watched them leave, took out $500 and gave it to Qiao Sen, then got in the passenger seat of the Wrangler, put the box on the back seat, and asked him to drive back to the city.
"Boss, you called me here to do nothing. I get free flights, free food, free travel, and you still want to pay me a salary." Qiao Sen felt embarrassed to take the money.
"Just take it if I tell you to. I'm not a stingy person." Zhang Ailun answered casually.
Seeing this, Qiao Sen stopped refusing and happily drove to Los Angeles with the leader.
Soon, they drove back to the city. Zhang Allen asked Qiao Sen to help out at the Sanji Bar, and he turned the car around and drove to the Armed Nation, where he had already agreed on a meeting place with Sig.
When we got here, there was no car in front of the store, and the escort vehicle was not there either. They must have been out doing business. Zhang Ailun parked the Wrangler on the side of the road, pushed the door open and walked into the store.
I also saw Jennifer sitting quietly behind the counter, holding a book and reading it seriously, taking notes from time to time. The book was still: An Arms Dealer from Entry to Death.
It can be seen that the store is quite relaxed and casual during this time, and Jennifer is working very hard.
Noticing Zhang Allen's return, Jennifer closed her book and greeted him warmly, "Dear, you're back? How's your business going?"
"Not bad." Zhang Ailun nodded with a smile and took out $2000 and handed it to Jennifer. "You took this business, right? This is the bonus given to you. Take it."
After some calculation, the chief leader had available funds of 66 US dollars.
Jennifer took the money with some surprise. She was overjoyed and gave him a passionate kiss. "Thank you, dear! This is the greatest encouragement to me!"
"Is Sig in the store? Where's Bailey? Are you the only one in the store?" Zhang Ailun asked.
"Sieg brought back a few people and is in the office upstairs. Bailey drove the delivery."
Jennifer answered and took out another bill. "This is the list of guns sold today. An Akm automatic rifle, five Beretta pistols, matching bullets, gun oil for maintenance, and fixed gun targets. The income is about $6000."
