Farming Life Starting in Africa

Barney's tone immediately became serious: "Then your chances of winning have increased by half. This old guy is really good. He can take on a whole team of ordinary mercenaries by himself. His strength is definitely reliable."

After a brief chat, the two hung up the phone.

Rosen immediately called Qian Bida back, informing him of Fu Longsheng's offer of six million US dollars and a half-prepayment deposit, and also sending him the other party's bank account information.

This expense did exceed Qian Bida's initial budget, but he wasn't bothered at all.

In such a high-risk and tough battle, as long as people can be rescued safely, spending more money is the safest guarantee, and there is no need to be stingy.

And if they actually win, their business in Mexico will be much smoother from then on.

It's important to understand how powerful drug cartels are in Mexico; the Americans often have to leverage their own strength to take them down.

Rosen suddenly remembered his own accounts; he didn't want to work for free. "I have about nine million dollars in arms expenses here. Could you help me with the expense report?"

Qian Bida was stunned on the spot, full of doubt: "What's going on? What is nine million?" He knew nothing about arms expenses and could only listen to Rosen's price.

"Uncle Ming will see for himself tomorrow," Rosen said, keeping everyone in suspense.

Qian Bida was instantly dumbfounded, and retorted, "Damn it, can't you be a little more careful?! I haven't even made any money in America yet, and you're already burning through cash like crazy!"

Rosen chuckled and teased, "Then hurry up and get to work! You're always dawdling around in China. Are you thinking of catching up with Aunt May and can't bear to leave?"

Without waiting for the other party to refute him, Rosen hung up the phone.

Outside the car window, the night was deep, the highway stretched into the distance, and all around was pitch black, with only the car headlights illuminating the road ahead.

Looking at the vast night sky, Rosen's lips curled into a slight smile as he muttered to himself, "It's okay that you didn't make any money. Tomorrow, I'm going to make a big profit."

His mind flashed through the images of the mountains of standard weapons and equipment piled up in his capsule space, a complete range of types and full firepower.

Thinking back to his earlier quote, Rosen suddenly wondered: Had he quoted too low a price?

As the night faded completely and the sun slowly climbed to the horizon of the US-Mexico border, Rosen, who had been driving all night without closing his eyes, finally arrived at his destination around 8 a.m.

This journey was an extreme one, with the accelerator almost floored. I endured an entire night to complete this cross-border journey of several hundred kilometers.

After successfully passing through the tedious border checks and shaking off the patrolling traffic along the way, Rosen deliberately found a secluded and quiet corner.

Nestled against a low, overgrown slope, with no passersby or surveillance cameras around, this place offers maximum seclusion.

With a thought, he directly summoned the Paramount Raider, a top-tier modified vehicle that could be considered a deadly land weapon, from his capsule space.

This behemoth has been modified beyond recognition, its entire body covered in hardcore weaponry, completely transcending the category of original civilian armored vehicles, becoming a veritable mobile war fortress.

The most conspicuous spot on the front of the vehicle has had its original fancy decorative bumper removed, and a fixed wedge-shaped impact wall-breaking shovel has been welded in place.

Thirty millimeters thick high-strength armor steel plate with an explosive texture and a sharp, hard blade, specially designed to smash through brick walls and concrete fences, exuding a strong sense of violence.

Even more impressive is the addition of a quick-release six-unit 40mm grenade launcher on top of the obstacle-clearing shovel. It can be disassembled when not in use without affecting passage, and can be put into place with a single click when needed, making it exceptional for suppressing crowds and clearing roadblocks at close range.

The roof is the core of the firepower. The originally bare ring base now steadily supports a GAU-19 triple-barreled .50BMG heavy Gatling gun remote weapon station, which has double the firepower of the ordinary mini gun and is specifically designed to deal with various armored vehicles, bunkers and cluster targets.

A large-capacity sealed ammunition box is firmly fixed below the weapon station, storing a full four thousand rounds of ammunition. It is equipped with a special flexible ammunition feed chute and a chain-free ammunition feeding system to prevent jamming and supply interruption during high-speed firing, maximizing the ammunition supply.

Next to the Gatling gun, there is also a MK47 40mm automatic grenade launcher with 240 rounds of ammunition. It is equipped with a mix of high-explosive, fragmentation, and ricochet grenades. Whether the enemy is hiding in a house, a wall, or behind cover, a round of grenades will basically leave them with no chance of survival.

The sides of the vehicle were also reinforced with bulletproof firing windows, with an M249 general-purpose machine gun fixed on each side, specifically for the gunner in the rear compartment to operate.

Each machine gun is equipped with an 800-round ammunition box, with a wide field of fire and a 35-degree coverage area on both sides, perfectly filling the blind spots on the flanks and eliminating the possibility of enemy close-range ambushes or side attacks.

The rear of the vehicle also hides a killer feature: a concealed quadruple anti-tank rocket launcher. When encountering tough targets like heavily armed pickup trucks or fortified positions, it can be launched directly, maximizing its offensive capabilities.

In addition, all four corners of the vehicle are equipped with eight-tube smoke and stun grenade launchers, which can release smoke screens to obscure vision and stun enemies the moment they are attacked, making it both offensive and defensive.

To support the power consumption of the fully equipped weapon system, Rosen also installed an additional high-power dedicated vehicle-mounted generator, so there is no longer any need to worry about overload and power outages caused by multiple weapons starting up and firing continuously at the same time.

The vehicle was lined with ten layers of bulletproof material. Unless hit directly by a large-caliber artillery shell, it could withstand other heavy weapons for a while.

Once fully armed, the already heavy Marauder's weight skyrocketed, approaching eighteen tons, making it a true land-based steel beast that crushes all other armored vehicles in its class.

The western outskirts of Nogalis are exceptionally desolate, with large areas of abandoned houses, their walls peeling and mottled, overgrown with weeds, and sparsely populated, making it the perfect place for a secret gathering.

Rosen finally arrived near a long-abandoned house, found a secluded spot to park, and met Guan Yuming, who had arrived earlier and was waiting for him.

In just a few days, the old man seemed to have aged several years in an instant. Most of his black hair had turned white, and his temples were covered in frost. He looked extremely haggard.

But Rosen could tell that he was suppressing an almost insane ferocity, and even the lone wolf next to him didn't want to get too close to him.

With his daughter trapped in a drug lord's den, her fate unknown, this veteran tough guy suppressed all his anger and fear deep inside.

Upon hearing footsteps and confirming that it was Luo Sen, Guan Yuming barely managed to suppress the anger in his eyes, mustered his spirits, and forced a slightly dry smile, his voice tinged with undisguised fatigue: "Xiao Luo, you must be tired from your journey."
