Hong Kong Variety Show: Let you eat melons, eat melons on your sister-in-law

Chapter 276 "276" Slapping the Old Wave to Death

General Demitch's stockpile was indeed quite terrifying.

The stacked firearms might be taller than a small mountain.

Just seeing these weapons is enough to make one's eyes pop.

And this is only the equipment for one battalion.

"General Demitch, how many guns are here?" Lin Yao asked curiously.

After glancing at the ledger, General Dimitri said directly, "Forty thousand."

Lin Yao curiously took one down from the metal rack where the guns were hanging.

It is indeed a good gun; the gun oil hasn't even been wiped off yet.

But Yuri seemed somewhat dissatisfied: "This doesn't look like 40,000, at most 10,000! General, this is far too few for a battalion! General, you should order more from the arms factory!"

Upon hearing Yuri's words, General Dimitri understood what was going on: "This isn't good, someone will investigate!"

Yuri smiled and said, "Then bring all the people investigating here too!"

Yuri, Lin Yao, and the Doctor had long since treated the General's warehouse as their own property.

Lin Yao said directly, "General, I have another batch of gifts coming over in a couple of days. I hope you will like them!"

"A gift?" General Demitch immediately became interested.

"It's nothing, just a batch of canned goods, clothing, and daily necessities!" Lin Yao said generously.

This thing was originally something Lin Yao prepared in advance to open up a gap in this market.

Now that he has such a powerful backer, Lin Yao doesn't need to go through all this trouble anymore.

We might as well just give them all to the general; it would be a good deed.

Upon hearing Lin Yao's words, General Dimitri's eyes lit up: "Lin, you will be my most loyal ally!"

"Haha, General, I'm glad you like it!" Lin Yao said with a smile. "By the way, General, it seems you don't have a comfortable vehicle?"

Yuri quickly laughed and said, "Don't steal my thunder, I've already prepared it for Uncle Dimitch!"

Clearly, Lin Yao had made preparations, and so had Yuri.

Only the Doctor foolishly ran over to Er Mao's side, completely unprepared, which made the Doctor somewhat frustrated.

Obviously, sometimes money is far from enough.

Once everyone started talking, General Demitch's adjutant stopped holding back.

He led the group to a place filled with tanks.

The adjutant immediately said, "How about this, buy six, get one free!"

The fact that the T-62 main battle tank is being sold at such a price is truly eye-opening.

Dr. Lin Yaohe finally understands what it feels like to weigh firearms by the kilogram.

After visiting General Demitch's armory, Lin Yao and Yuri began to calculate how much weaponry they could purchase with their respective funds.

“I have about fifty million US dollars here!” Lin Yao said directly to Yuri.

Yuri was somewhat surprised: "Is selling arms in Asia really that profitable?"

Keep in mind that Yuri's total net worth is less than fifty million US dollars.

I've recently been pursuing a washed-up model. Yuri practically emptied his savings to buy a huge penthouse in the most luxurious part of Manhattan, and it was even mortgaged.

But compared to Lin Yao, they are truly insignificant.

Lin Yao said with a smile, "My wife comes from a family that monopolizes the arms trade in Southeast Asia. I also have some other businesses in Hong Kong, so I naturally have plenty of funds."

Yuri thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I'll put out 15 million for 30%, and the rest is all yours!"

Without Yuri's connections, Lin Yao and the doctor wouldn't have had any way to buy weapons.

Even if you could buy it, it wouldn't be this cheap.

So Lin Yao gave the doctor a subtle look.

The doctor thought for a moment, then nodded and readily agreed: "No problem, Yuri!"

Yuri immediately smiled, knowing that these two were sensible.

The two sides quickly reached an agreement and then discussed it with General Demitch.

General Demitch had never seen so much money before, and he immediately agreed.

When the soldiers heard that they would have meat to eat and money to be paid in the future, they eagerly introduced the three of them to the situation.

Such large-scale transactions obviously cannot be concluded in a short period of time.

Therefore, the two sides have only reached a preliminary agreement today, and the remaining matters still need to be discussed gradually.

Just then, a soldier ran over and said to Demitch, "General, an American has come looking for you, saying he's an old friend of yours."

Upon hearing this, Demitch said with some surprise, "I don't have a single American friend!"

Dimitri was puzzled, but Yuri, Lin Yao, and the others were not. They figured it was probably Weiss, the veteran American arms dealer.

The group went straight to the entrance, where they met Weiss.

Weiss was also somewhat surprised to see the men around General Demitch.

The sentry is carefully checking Wise's passport.

Weiss said somewhat impatiently, "Don't you recognize me?"

"I don't care who you are!" the sentry said irritably.    
After speaking, the sentry handed Wise's passport to General Demitch.

Dimitri glanced at it but didn't say anything, but Yuri took it.

Then he walked over to Weiss and said, "You're late."

“It seems so!” Weiss frowned as he looked at Yuri, this rising star, and asked, “When did you start hanging out with Asians?”

Yuri said calmly, "They are all my partners!"

"Hello, Mr. Weiss, it's an honor to meet you!" Lin Yao said, extending his hand directly.

"Who are you?" Although Weiss was arrogant, he still shook hands with Lin Yao in the face of the situation.

"I'm just a nobody!" Lin Yao said calmly. "This is my wife!"

Weiss had never heard of Lin Yao, but she clearly recognized the Doctor: "The arms queen of Southeast Asia, she's caught a whiff of your scent!"

The doctor said calmly, "You flatter me, Mr. Wise!"

When Weiss saw these people huddled together, he knew he was in trouble.

It seems that the weapons General Demitch has been divided up by these three guys.

However, Weiss was unwilling to have come all this way for nothing, so he said to the group, "Could you do me the honor of having dinner with us?"

The three laughed: "No problem, Mr. Wise!"

……

Inside the hotel restaurant.

Wise, that old guy, was clearly a bit annoyed.

Because he, a senior figure, actually had to bow down to three juniors.

This made it difficult for him to lower his proud head.

Yuri spoke first, saying, "You seem a bit lost? Is the world changing too fast?"

"I'm here now, aren't I?" Weiss said with some dissatisfaction.

Yuri laughed: "You've made a fortune selling arms for the CIA, but you still can't bring yourself to do it."

“I had no choice during the Cold War; I had to consider the tense relationship between the two sides first!” Weiss crossed his arms and said to Yuri, “It’s still hard to decide which side we should stand on!”

Hearing Weiss's words, Lin Yao couldn't help but laugh.

Weiss frowned and said, "Easterner, what are you laughing at?"

Lin Yao coughed twice and said with a smile, "I'm sorry, Mr. Weiss, I just think... your ideas are very interesting."

"As far as I know, isn't the United States a capitalist country? Don't you all advocate putting profit above all else? It's quite interesting that someone would talk to me about positions of power!"

Yuri laughed along, "That doesn't seem like the style of an international arms dealer!"

Although he was badly ridiculed by Lin Yao and Yuri's coordinated attack, Weiss still suppressed his anger and said, "We can't let this chaos continue. We must rebuild order!"

"Instead of being enemies, let's cooperate!"

Now, not only Lin Yao and Yuri, but even the poker-faced Doctor couldn't help but laugh.

However, his smile was full of mockery.

An old man, without any explanation, wanted to take a portion of their share.

And you don't want to give anything in return? There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world.

The smiles of the three men, however, greatly displeased the stubborn old man.

Yuri waved his hand and said, "I wasn't worthy to carry your shoes before, and I'm still not worthy now!"

Weiss stood up angrily and said to the group, "There's a problem with arms dealers going to war: both sides have an inexhaustible supply of ammunition!"

After saying that, Weiss got up and left.

"Wow, it seems we've angered this old man!" Lin Yao said with a laugh.

Yuri spread his hands and said, "It was bound to happen sooner or later! I just don't know who he'll target next!"

Lin Yao shook his head and said, "He won't attack us. Didn't you hear what he said? When arms dealers go to war, both sides have an inexhaustible supply of ammunition!"

"Oh?" the doctor asked curiously, "Then who is he planning to target?"

"What do you think, Yuri?" Lin Yao asked Yuri with a smile.

Yuri frowned and said, "I don't know either!"

"What do you think is the biggest difference between us and Weiss?" Lin Yao asked directly.

Yuri thought for a moment: "Uncle Demitch's relationship... I understand, he'll target Uncle Demitch?"

"But... that shouldn't be the case, right? Does he really have that kind of guts?"

"You said it yourself, he's a long-established American arms dealer, and the kind who's politically conservative. What's the big deal about taking out a former Soviet general?"

Lin Yao lit a cigar and said, "Take a look at what's going on with Er Mao. You told General Dimitri before that everyone is vying for power."

"Once you get rid of General Demitch, who has close ties to you, won't it be the same for him to bribe the others?"

Hearing Lin Yao's analysis, Yuri became increasingly convinced of the possibility and said anxiously, "Then what should we do?"

"Let's play along!" Lin Yao said with a smile. "Since he wants to harm General Demitch, we'll be responsible for rescuing him! That way, we can also deepen our relationship with General Demitch. What do you think?"
