From arms dealer to king of war

Chapter 127 The Embarrassed ‘Professor’

Even after beating Qiao Jia to death, he never thought that the 'professor' would actually hand over his business funds to a blind man.

All his business expenses combined are only 50,000 US dollars and 40,000 euros, and now they have almost spent them.

Choga also did not expect that prices in Tunisia were not cheap. If he wanted to book a hotel with 80 rooms, it would cost US$40,000 a day.

With the little money the 'professor' has left for food, it is simply impossible to book a hotel until the end of the exhibition.

But this time Qiao Jia came with a purpose. In order to experience the real operation mode of the arms business, he had to go out by himself. Accompanied by Dorian, he went to the famous blue and white town and rented a sea view villa. .

A large villa covering an area of ​​2 hectares, with a yard and a swimming pool, cost US$150,000 to rent for 15 days, which made Qiao Jia, who had never spent money lavishly, feel very sad.

However, the villa comes with its own housekeeper, servants and chef. Not only does it provide travel vehicles and three meals a day, but if necessary, with an additional US$5,000, a buffet reception for 50 people can be organized.

After finalizing the villa, Qiao Jia rushed back to the hotel in a hurry, wanting to discuss the next steps with the 'professor'.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he entered the hotel, Qiao Jia found that the atmosphere was not quite right.

It was already 3 o'clock in the afternoon when Joga came back. It was not lunch time, but there were a group of Serbian men in military uniforms sitting in the hotel lobby drinking.

These people were not noisy, but their drunken attitude made everyone in the hotel stay away from them.

The half-blind Andre stood anxiously next to a second lieutenant and kept saying something, but did not get the slightest response.

Choga didn't understand Serbian. When he passed by, he glanced at the shabby-looking men in military uniforms. After hesitating for a moment, he waved to Andre, but he was embarrassed to find that this guy didn't See yourself.

As the boss's personal bodyguard, Dorian rushed over and invited Andre over with a wink. Then the guy glanced at the men in military uniforms with a complicated look, and finally nodded and said hello to the second lieutenant. .

"Who are they?"

Qiao Jia waved his hand in front of Andre's face and said, "Why do they look so angry?"

Andre acted very aggrieved and couldn't speak clearly...

Dorian on the side couldn't stand it, he shook his head and said: "Boss, these guys are the security guards, escorts and weapons demonstrators of Yog Imbert Company.

These guys have been working on the floor in the exhibition warehouse recently, and the food is terrible.

I met another second lieutenant last night. He wanted the 'professor' to arrange an air-conditioned room for them to rest, but the 'professor' refused.

I also think it’s a bit too much! "

When Qiao Jia heard this, he said in disbelief: "No way, the professor is not such a person, is he?"

When Andre heard this, he shook his head and said: "No, no, our budget for this exhibition has exceeded our budget. We did not expect that the price of decoration materials would suddenly increase, so we overspent.

In fact, if it weren't for receiving you, the teacher and I should have gone to the warehouse to lay floors.

Qiao Jia looked at Andre like a god and said, "Didn't you sign a contract in advance when you participated in the exhibition?

The price of booth decoration can be raised just as the price is raised. How dare those people with electric drills dare to fight with those selling guns? "

Andre lowered his head and said: "The contract was negotiated by people from the head office. Some of the clauses in it were unreasonable, but neither the teacher nor I realized it at the time."

As soon as Qiao Jia heard this, he knew that the 'Professor' had been tricked by his colleagues. The people at Yog Imbert Company didn't want the 'Professor' to succeed at all, nor did they think he would succeed, so they set up obstacles everywhere to make the 'Professor' succeed. 'Retreat when faced with difficulties.

It's a pity that those people don't understand 'professors' at all. If those people were willing to give 'professors' an annual salary of 50,000 US dollars, or even 40,000 US dollars, as long as they could make up for his daughter's coaching fees, you could send him to a corner office to hang up. It doesn't matter to him if he gets up.

But today's 'professors' will overcome all difficulties and continue doing business.

Qiao Jia was certain that without him, the 'Professor's' defense exhibition would have ended dismally.

Maybe the security guards they brought would mutiny, and these rough guys would lose their temper and beat the 'professor', and he might really have no place to reason.

Just by letting soldiers live in a warehouse, it's impossible to expect them to work hard to showcase your products. Dealing with errands is already considered professional ethics.

Thinking about the unfortunate experience of these guys, Qiao Jia shook his head sympathetically, then walked up to the soldiers and looked them over, and said: "For 100 yuan a day for each person, I will hire you as villa security guards, and you will be provided with food and accommodation." Do you have any decent suits over there?”

The second lieutenant, whose face was cold at first, was stunned for a moment. He looked at Qiao Jia and said in broken English: "We have two teams of people who need to guard the warehouse in shifts. Moreover, we are soldiers and we do not accept orders from others. .”

When Qiao Jia heard this, he knew that this guy was attracted. He snatched the liquor from the second lieutenant's hand, pointed to the restaurant on the side of the lobby and said: "Take your people in and sit down. I'll treat you to a meal, and then I'll convince 'Professor' to arrange for you to work shifts at our business premises.

The exhibition itself has security services, and no one cares about your little things. Just leave two people there to watch. The rest of the people all put on suits and go on duty at the luxurious villas in Blue and White Town.

You need to ensure the security there, be ready to throw out anyone the professor and I don't like, and at the same time help me get rid of all the fake buffets and drinks.

is that OK? "

After speaking, Qiao Jia did not wait for the second lieutenant with a complicated expression to reply. He took out his phone and dialed the 'professor' and briefly explained the matter to him.

Soon the 'Professor' came down from upstairs, followed by his wife and daughter.

Perhaps after hearing the noise, Kaman, Nice, and Antal also came down together.

Qiao Jia smiled and hugged Valentina, then winked at Ana who was making a face, and said: "You guys pack up and move today. I rented a big villa in the blue and white town on the seaside. , you move in with the 'professor'.

Remember to dress up nicely, don't let our 'professor' collapse. "

As he said that, Qiao Jia led the 'professor' to the second lieutenant and said in a deep voice: "If you come here together, then the 'professor' will be your boss.

What you are doing is your duty. If you have any dissatisfaction, you should try to communicate well instead of choosing passive confrontation.

Now you can make any requests, as long as they are not excessive, I will agree to it on behalf of the 'professor'. "

The second lieutenant looked at the embarrassed 'professor'. He hesitated for a moment, and finally led his men to stand up straight and perform a standard military salute, and then said: "The plan just now is good, we will do our part. .”

Qiao Jia smiled and looked at the team who stood up with great momentum. He nodded and said: "You can't just do things within your scope. If you take my money, you have to do things for me.

100 yuan a day is not cheap. I want you to tidy up a little bit. Isn’t it too much? "

As he spoke, Qiao Jia glanced at the 'professor' beside him, pulled him and pushed away the two soldiers. The two sat down on the sofa in the lobby and said, "How many small arms did your company bring this time?"

"I have to look at the detailed list. There should be quite a few, because I think there is a market for small arms here."

Qiao Jia watched as the 'Professor' opened a paper notebook and began to look at it. He reached out to hold the 'Professor's' hand and said, "Stop looking, just tell me the total value of the light weapons you brought. "

"A total of $54,300, including..."

Qiao Jia waved his hand and said: "I want all of them, send them to the beach house, set up a small exhibition hall there, and dress up all the soldiers.

You are a participating company in the defense exhibition. No one will cause trouble when you secure the weapons and protect the storage of important items, right? "

"It shouldn't be a big problem..."

Qiao Jia clapped his hands and said: "Let's do it, don't be stunned. You will definitely not have only Andre as a staff member. We will free up hotel rooms for them and give them a few hundred yuan each." Go shopping in the streets.”

The 'Professor' was confused by a series of things. This guy is the kind of obsessive-compulsive disorder who must understand the whole story of everything. He lowered his head and thought for a long time, and finally looked at Qiao Jia and said: "But I don't have much funds left. .”

Qiao Jia lamented, waved to Kaman, took six stacks of banknotes from him, counted 54,300 US dollars and handed it to the 'professor', saying: "Now that you have money, spend them all.

You go back and write a detailed report and give it to your boss. I guarantee that no one will trouble you for the money, because you have been cheated in the first place.

Once you make a few more businesses as a result, the credit for opening up new markets will be yours. "

Just when the 'professor' started to lower his head and think again, Qiao Jia's cell phone rang.

Seeing that it was an unfamiliar call, Qiao Jia answered it and said in a deep voice, "I'm Jackal."

A very female voice came to mind on the other end of the phone, "Hello Jackal, introduce yourself, my name is Chris Jensen, Eric Copco told me that you have some energy in Afica.

Now one of my clients needs a batch of arms. Do you have any good recommendations? "

Qiao Jia was stunned for a moment, and then realized that this guy should be Eric's broker friend.

He glanced at the 'professor' who was still thinking about the question, thought about it and said, "What do you want? Or what do your customers want?"

Chris Jensen on the opposite side smiled and said: "I'm glad you are so confident. If you are really capable, then you will make a fortune. Italy's arms smuggling business has stagnated, and you can just fill the gap. .

My client is in Tunisia now. If you have time, you can go and talk to him.

The business scale is large, but no matter what your final turnover is, I will take 10%.

Eric said that your money laundering channel has not been established yet. If you need my help in fund transfer, I will charge an additional 5%.

This is a friendly price to a good gunsmith. I like that WA2000. "

Qiao Jia hung up the phone, looked at the 'professor' who had figured something out, and said with a smile: "Don't think about it, we have a business!

Do everything as I just said, and you must not let anything slip when the time comes. "
