King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer Chapter 135 135 King of War (Explosive update of 25,000 word
The flas from the explosion of the yacht on the dock rapidly spread to several nearby boats.
The police and fire brigade of Blue and White Town reacted swiftly, and the fire was soon under control.
Dorian ran over to take a look and ca back saying, "It was caused by an explosion. There were four people inside the yacht at the ti of the explosion; it was a preditated assassination.
Boss, it looks like we have to be more cautious; Tunisia is not as safe as we thought."
Tunisia is indeed not safe; it serves as the best springboard for Africa to enter Europa and is a hub for African terrorists.
All sorts of underground deals are done here, and then large quantities of smuggled arms are transported through Tunisian highways to West African countries such as Mali, Burkina Faso, Sierra Leone, and Nigeria, which are heavily affected.
Joe Ga was unaware that this explosion was the Mori Family's youngest daughter cleaning up forr family collaborators, now betrayers.
Even if he knew, he didn't care, as the Mori Family had been thoroughly weakened. A young woman trying to restore the Mori Family's business would need a huge amount of effort and ti; where would she find the ti to care about a gun dealer far away in Africa?
After hearing what Dorian had said, he looked at 'Walnut' who ca by to see what the commotion was about and said, "You see, it's not very peaceful here. The defense exhibition is basically an arms trade show. Those who buy and sell weapons are all on edge. You all be vigilant in the villa these next few days and make sure there are no mistakes."
Joe Ga hadn't finished speaking when a call ca through on his phone.
Looking at the na Chris Jansen displayed, Joe Ga answered the call, saying, "Buddy, you won't miss your money; you don't need to call to remind , do you?"
"What money?"
"The referral fee for the arms deal in Central Africa."
As Joe Ga finished, Chris was taken aback, then oddly said, "So soon?
Are you even professional? A transaction of this magnitude takes months just to organize the logistics. You can't ss this up; my reputation is at stake here, and I've accepted a consulting fee from Mary Aenola."
Joe Ga laughed at the double-dealing broker, shaking his head as he said, "I now know why you can be friends with Eric; it's because you share the sa characteristics."
On the other end of the phone, Chris didn't seem to care about the irony in Joe Ga's tone and dismissively said, "I beca friends with Eric because his father is a big shot.
You may question my morals, but you shouldn't question my credibility.
I introduced you to Mary Aenola because I trust Eric.
If this transaction of yours succeeds, I will give you a star. Once you accumulate five stars with , then you'll know the kind of benefits you can get from ."
If it had been a few days earlier, Joe Ga might have been fooled by this guy. But after truly understanding the ins and outs of the Central Africa deal, he knew this guy wasn't as incredible as he boasted; he definitely wasn't aware of the intricacies of this deal.
However, the business was indeed recomnded by him. His connections were genuine and seed quite reputable.
Had Joe Ga handled it himself, he wouldn't have been able to reach soone on Mary Aenola's level, let alone convincingly bring her to a villa for negotiations.
Joe Ga didn't ask what the so-called 'five stars' ant; he said with a smile, "Since the deal went through, once the contract is signed and the deposit is in, I'll send you your 20 million commission.
If you have similar deals in the future, keep in mind."
Hearing Joe Ga's straightforward manner, Chris was silent for a few seconds and then spoke in a scheming tone, "Do you know there has been a big developnt in Tunisia?"
Joe Ga glanced at the smoky dock in the distance and said, "I don't know; what kind of big event are you referring to?"
"Zaside, the largest arms distributor in North Africa, was just blown up on his yacht. There's going to be a major shakeup in the North African arms channel."
Joe Ga paused for a mont then said, "Hmm, and then?"
Chris chuckled and said, "And then? With Zaside gone, all his pending orders have co to a halt, and now there's a gap that needs to be filled."
"Boko Haram" approached ; they need a shipnt of weapons. Are you interested?"
Anyone mixed up in Africa should know 'Boko Haram.'
This is an extremist organization almost akin to 'ISIS,' and perhaps even more extre and crazier due to being in Africa without a significant nesis."
These people also belong to the drug trafficking network in Africa. Joe Ga was about to go to war with these guys; how could he possibly support the enemy and create trouble for himself?
Without much consideration, Joe Ga refused, "Chris, I don't deal with terrorists.
I prefer deals like the one in Central Africa."
Upon hearing this, Chris curiously said, "Are you really an arms dealer? You're picking your clients when you're making money? You haven't even heard their proposal.
Don't you know that with Zaside gone, arms prices in Africa are skyrocketing? This could be a huge deal!"
Joe Ga responded, his tone a bit grim, "Mr. Jansen, I think you have the wrong idea about .
In your eyes, I might just be a small player who would stoop to any level for money."
"Ask yourself if that's what you're thinking because if that's the case, our partnership ends here. I'll pay you on ti, but from now on, we'll act as if we don't know each other."
"I only had a bit of business with Eric, and trying to use to get close to him is pointless. In fact, my relationship with him is far from what you imagine."
Chris on the other end of the phone, after a long silence, said, "Your inexplicable sense of morality made you miss out on a big money-making opportunity."
Joe Ga didn't want to explain his problems to Chris. He smiled and said, "Thanks for the complint. From now on, you can call 'Good Man'."
"If there are deals like the ones in Central Africa in the future, feel free to let know. Of course, the commission can't be 10%, as you just passed on the information and didn't provide any transaction guarantee. Five percent, no more, you understand, right?"
"Deals involving groups like Boko Haram or the Youth Party are out of the question. They are like cancer, and while I'm willing to hand a scalpel to the 'doctor,' I won't energize cancer cells."
"I know acting as the 'dealer of death' and refusing these clients makes look like a hypocritical gentleman, but I don't care. I have my own goals, and those 'cancer cells' are not within my client range."
Chris laughed sarcastically after listening and said, "Arms dealing is the 'business of death.' When your so-called 'cancer cells' are about to starve, will your clients still need your products?"
Joe Ga laughed heartily and replied, "That's why I stick to my stand. With people like you worrying about them, there will always be soone ready to do their business for money."
"Go ahead, the better your business goes, the better mine gets!"
"But rember to keep them from troubling . I hold grudges!"
Chris, after listening, didn't continue to argue with Joe Ga but curiously said, "Your appetite is bigger than I expected. Was it the transaction in Central Africa that gave you confidence?"
Joe Ga ignored Chris's probing. He smiled and said, "A bit. That deal showed a new possibility, so I want to try it."
Chris on the other end of the phone finally realized sothing, took a deep breath, and said, "I get it now, you want to dominate both arms and rcenary transactions and beco the 'King of War.' Then, your future enemies will be the likes of Boko Haram.
"Well, it seems this urgent deal fell through.
"When you're free, co visit Sweden. We could go hunting together.
"I really like that WA2000, but it has a too light trigger, and the grip is sowhat uncomfortable. I would like you to modify it for .
"Of course, I won't expect you to do it for free...
"We could beco friends. I like ambitious people like you because the greater your ambition, the more you'll need soone like ."
"This deal indeed didn't take much of my effort, so I'll give you a discount, the 5% as you ntioned."
"Rember to send the money, and you'll find that working with offers significant convenience!"
Joe Ga cheerfully agreed to Chris's invitation and gracefully accepted the 10 million discount. After hanging up, he turned to the 'Professor' and said, "Stay a bit cautious for the next few days. Soone significant died on our yacht, and this defense exhibition will definitely attract all sorts of creatures.
"We just need to be discerning, and we'll definitely share in the bounty."
From his conversation with Chris, Joe Ga had already grasped so of his patterns.
The guy seed trustworthy and had broad access to information, very well-connected.
However, his level of contact might not be as high or as legit as Joe Ga had thought; he was more involved in the illegal field of information broking.
The Central Africa deal likely happened because he was at the right place, right ti. Mary Aenola set such stringent conditions that no big company took the bait, thus the deal ended up with him introducing a capable seller.
This guy wasn't familiar with the ins and outs of the Central Africa trade and sort of stumbled upon Joe Ga, a newcor.
The only plausible reason was either he didn't know enough heavyweights in the arms circle, or he had been selling the information all around.
It's similar to a real estate agent, where clients co looking for properties, and the agent shows various options. Once a deal is made, the agent earns the commission.
Informant brokers aren't as mysterious as imagined; they cash in on information discrepancies, much like how Joe Ga bought gazelles for 200,000 from Egypt and flipped them for a million.
If you don't know the ga, you end up paying more!
Joe Ga felt the 10 million was well spent this ti!
This Central Africa deal not only broadened his horizons but helped him understand so grey-area rules of this world and the operations of informant brokers.
A single transaction yielding multiple benefits, worth it!
Whether or not to partner with Chris in the future can be decided later. This ti wasn't a loss, but next ti, Joe Ga would surely be more cautious.
Joe Ga understood that managing his own network and information channels was crucial.
For now, this could take a natural course, as long as he perford well in the Central Africa venture, many things would fall into place subsequently.
Joe Ga really liked what Chris had said about becoming the 'King of War.' He felt he definitely could!
