Chapter 36 Business is not like this
Medellin is a little hotter than Bogota, but only a little hotter because Medellin is still a city built in a plateau valley.
The famous Medellin Group, or the notorious Medellin Group, was named after this city.
Pablo Escobar has been dead for many years, and the security in Medellin is much better than before, but Medellin is still one of the most dangerous cities. Yes, there are no cities in Colombia with good security.
In the whole of South America, it is difficult to find a city with good security.
Therefore, guns were necessary, and the retail giant in Bogota abided by the rules and never sold arms, so he had no choice but to come to Medellin to buy them.
After settling down in the hotel, several people immediately gathered in Frank's room. After Frank dialed a number, he immediately said: "Can you speak English?"
Frank obviously got a negative answer, so he could only hand the phone to Gao Guang.
Gao Guang took the phone and said calmly in the gangster accent that Frank had reminded him: "Hello, we are Sebastian's friends. He said you can buy what we need here."
"Are you Americans?"
"Yes."
"Mr. Sebastian has said hello to me. I have what you need. Come and find me now."
After hanging up the phone, Gao Guang looked at Frank and said, "No problem, let's go find him now."
Frank stood up and said eagerly: "Then let's go, get the gun and go see our plane."
This time, all five people were dispatched. Without saying much, they got into the rented car and went to the address given by the gun seller.
After the shopping experience in Bogota, Gao Guang was very disappointed with the gun buying experience this time. Although I didn’t expect that buying a gun in Medellin would be as good as in a gun store in the United States, I went through all the searches and searches before entering.
After arriving at a simple tin house, all the seller could bring out were a dozen guns.
There is no choice at all. There are not even new guns. They are all second-hand goods. The key is that there are too few types.
There were only four or five pistols in total, among which there were two old-fashioned ones. The only gun that could be seen clearly. After John picked it up and pulled the slide a few times, he found that the elastic force of the recoil spring had seriously decreased, and even more
The key thing is that these guns don't even have spare magazines, they all have a magazine that comes with the gun.
Although this time it was not a war, and the place we were going to was an uninhabited area in the rainforest, so it was unlikely that we would be able to use a gun, but we still had to have self-defense weapons, but these rags really couldn't meet Gao Guang's needs.
"A pistol costs one thousand dollars, no bargaining."
The seller's quotation does not need to be translated because he speaks in English.
Frank sighed, then he looked at the young man selling the gun and said, "Man, are you kidding me? Is this the level of person Sebastian introduced?"
The seller shook his head and said with a haughty look: "Of course there are new guns, we have brand new guns, but the prices are different..."
Frank resisted the urge to curse and said with a stern face: "Then take out the new gun and hurry up, we are pressed for time."
The seller curled his lips and said arrogantly: "Brand-new Glock 17, not yet unboxed, $5,000 apiece, do you want it?"
The normal price of a Glock 17 is more than 600 US dollars, but here it sells for 5,000. I don’t think it’s a big deal, but some people can’t stand it.
John said angrily: "Why don't you go and grab it? Five thousand dollars for a Glock, I..."
John shut up, because the arrogant-looking young man took out a pistol from his arms, then pointed it at John's head arrogantly, and said loudly: "Do you want me to snatch it? Do you want to?"
Frank raised his hands, sighed softly, and said: "Man, put down the gun, we are in business."
The seller pointed his gun at Frank with disdain and said: "In Medellin, Glock is the price. If you can afford it, buy it. If you can't afford it, get out!"
After finishing speaking, the seller put away the gun, pointed at the pile of junk in front of him impatiently and said: "A piece of junk costs a thousand dollars. If you don't have money, choose this one. Hurry up!"
Frank said in a deep voice: "Are you the boss?"
This young man is definitely not the boss, because the boss does not speak English, but the young man sent by the boss is still arrogant and said very directly: "The boss came at this price, this is the market price, you should ask before buying a gun
one time."
Frank was at his wits' end. He waved his hands helplessly and said, "Okay, five Glock 17s. In addition, I want these two AKMs. Do you have extra magazines for the AK? Give me ten magazines. Three
Hundreds of rounds of ammunition, and I want ten kilograms of C4 and twenty detonators, are they available?"
The quality of the rifle on display is better. Although it is old, it can still be used without any problem. However, the rifle on display also does not have a spare magazine.
The seller's face softened a little, but he still said with a straight face: "One hundred magazines, two thousand AKs, bullets for one thousand dollars a box, no retail sale, rifles five thousand six, pistols twenty-five thousand, C4 together with
Ten thousand detonators, totaling US$30,600, all you need is cash, and the goods will be delivered upon receipt."
Frank didn't spend any more. He took out three stacks of bills from his bag and put them on the table. He said solemnly: "I only brought 30,000, man. Let's forget about 600."
The seller hesitated for a moment. Although he was unhappy with the car, he still nodded. Then he picked up the walkie-talkie and said: "Bring me five Glocks and ten kilograms of C4."
The atmosphere was a bit tense, no one said anything, and then we waited for more than half an hour before someone finally delivered the things.
It is true that the pistol has not been unboxed, but there are no bullets. The seller said arrogantly: "I will give you bullets when I go out. Goodbye."
A very unpleasant shopping experience. After I left the tin house, I took over a tin bullet box outside. After firing a few boxes of pistol bullets, I even had the guts to fill the gun with bullets, and then teach the arrogant young man what to do.
How to speak.
"When we're done, I'm going to kill this bastard."
John said harsh words angrily, but Frank said angrily: "Forget it, pistols are already expensive here. It would be nice to buy a new gun. Our business is the most important, don't cause trouble."
Gao Guang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "If I were selling arms, I wouldn't sell them like this. That's not how business works."
Rubber said suddenly: "Arms dealers are all like this, bah, what kind of arms dealer is this guy? He's not even an arms dealer."
Frank waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Stop talking about this, look at our plane now. Guns are useless, the plane is the most important thing."
George looked at his watch and suddenly said: "It's still early now. If the plane is ready, captain, should we fly over first and take a look?"
Frank thought for a moment, and then he nodded: "I originally wanted to go tomorrow, but I really can't wait. If you are not too tired, let's set off now and do some reconnaissance first. Maybe we can do it today.
