From Arms Dealer To King of War

  Chapter 786 The Ubiquitous Contractor

  There are many kinds of ‘contractors’…

  Contracting the daily affairs of the army is also one of them, and it does not necessarily need to participate in combat.

  All the service items in this public area are completed by 'contractors'.

  For example, if you want to contract a barber shop, it is very simple...

  No matter how many people you have, as long as you have a good relationship with the person in charge of the base and promise to cut hair for the soldiers in the base once a month, you will be able to obtain the right to operate.

   As for how to make a profit, that is your own business.

  The hairdressing contractor at the base is a Thai. This guy sounds sissy, but his brain is definitely easy to use. If he can't make money from haircuts, he helps mercenaries to trim their beards and give them massages.

   Get a few masseuses from my hometown, and earn a lot of money by messing around.

  The bar owner is a Scot, the coffee shop is an Italian, the dry cleaner is an Indian, and the tailor is a Malaysian.

  Only the gun shop is P·B's own. A few sniper girls who were a bit bored in Afika came here to take charge of the business of the gun shop, help the mercenaries maintain their guns, and sell the boss's high-quality firearms by the way.

  The "contractor" of the supermarket is a Huaguo, because Huaguo people have the advantage of being close to the logistics center, and they can always get a lot of goods at a low price.

  The boss here runs the supermarket here after paying a deposit of 10,000 USD to P·B, and pays 2,000 USD in rent every month.

  Joga chatted with the supermarket owner...

   This guy is from the Northeast, and he couldn’t find it in his hometown, so he took his wife and joined the labor dispatch team for going abroad.

  He is in a similar situation to Qiao Jia, both found business opportunities when they went out to work, but what Boss Qiao was doing at the time was not a legal business, but he was doing a supermarket...

  In the past, he used to run around with the team of the energy group, but whenever he dispatched more than 200 workers, he would go to open a small supermarket near the construction site, specializing in selling some Huaguo products, and the business was surprisingly good.

   This guy is shaking now. He took advantage of the energy group's big development in Iraq to open 6 supermarkets in a row, and finally even opened the supermarket into the Baghdad base.

  Joga didn’t know how he marked the prices in the supermarket outside, but the prices in this base were outrageous.

  Most of the basic daily necessities are very cheap, but a pack of Zhonghua for $20 and a bottle of Moutai for $600 make Qiao Jia feel that anyone who bids such a price should go to jail.

   But you can tell from his appearance that those mercenaries are very easy to earn money!

   Qiaojia couldn’t help admiring the old man from the Northeast...

   In good conscience, it is actually not easy for Chinese people to mix outside!

   This old man came to Iraq with his family to make a fortune, which is even more difficult!

  Seeing the happy look of this Northeast old man, Qiaojia also felt happy, and then cleared his tobacco and alcohol inventory, which was not cheap even if it was 50% off, and asked him to send it directly to P·B's dormitory.

   It wasn't until Qiaojia left that the old man from the east realized that he seemed to have met the legendary boss of P·B.

  Because there are not many Chinese people in P·B, there are only a group of cooks in the cafeteria and a team of fake foreigners who speak fluent Chinese, and the rest is only the legendary "jackal"...

  Seeing that Qiaojia and Dorian left, the Northeast brother searched the information of P·B on the Internet, and saw Boss Qiao in the photo, he patted his head annoyed...

  Then the clever man glanced at the monitor above his head, turned his head and cut a picture on the computer of talking and laughing with Boss Joe, printed it out, and pasted it behind the cash register.

  He didn't want to use Boss Joe's name to do something, and he didn't dare. He just thought that with such a photo, those mercenaries who looked scary could be a little more polite.

  Choga was a bit overwhelmed by the changes in the base, but these changes are all good.

  Originally, Boss Joe’s idea for this base was to use it as a transit center. Now that the base has developed like this, it is actually better than he expected.

  If the other bases in the north can follow suit in the future, then the value of this passage running through the north and south will be magnified.

   Relying on the sense of security provided by the military base will greatly improve the business situation in Iraq. With the deterrence of the soldiers in the base, at least they will not worry about being robbed just after paying for the goods.

   Qiaojia stopped and stopped along the way, and after fully feeling the prosperity of the 'business district', he boarded the car again and went to the location of the air force.

   It’s been a long time, and Boss Joe doesn’t know what’s going on with these two precious old men, Archerfish and Cobra. He has to go and see...

   Recently, they are responsible for most of the base's consumption, and they don't know any enemies in Iraq. It is worth sending two jet fighter sorties every day...

  Boss Joe wasn’t there before, but now that he’s back, he has to go and have a look. It’s a bit too much money.

   When Dorian drove the car into the air force area, Choga saw that Andre, the little glasses, was actually commanding a group of ground crews at night, attaching bombs to two Su-25s and two F-16s.

  After the car approached, Choga found that two AGM-12 'Pittling' air-to-surface missiles had been hung under the wings of the two F-16s.

   This thing is more than 4 meters long, and it looks like a scary mess.

   This stuff has been largely abandoned by the US military, so 20 rounds of 'Pitdogs' were sent with the first sponsorship when the fighting in Iraq began.

   As soon as this thing arrived, Choga knew that it was people from the Navy who were 'money laundering'.

   They dare to 'repay 2 million' for such an old-fashioned thing.

   But for Qiaojia, it is free after all, so of course he is happy to accept it.

  The accuracy of the "Pitdog" is average, and the pilot needs to manually aim. During this period, the nose of the aircraft must always be aimed at the target.

   This is far from the performance of those precision-guided missiles that can be ignored once they are thrown away, and the performance of the precision-guided missiles that penetrate outside the defense zone is far worse.

   But you can't hold back the power of this guy. Just look at its length of 410 cm and its diameter of 60 cm. You will know that this guy's explosive power is astonishing.

   Qiaojia didn't know what they wanted to do, so he opened the door and got out of the car, walked behind the little glasses Andre, patted him on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Who are you trying to bomb?"

  Small glasses Andre was taken aback...

   Turning around and seeing the boss coming, Andre hugged Choga in surprise, and said, "Boss, he is from Isis.

  In the past few days, the Syrian U.S. military has shrunk, and at the same time ordered the Kurds not to act.

   Now Isis is taking this opportunity to attack the safe zone insanely. The 'pioneers' of team B are not having a good time recently, and the consumption of shells is too high.

  He wants us to organize a raid to take out Isis strongholds. "

  Joga listened, frowned and nodded...

  The power of the cannon is absolutely superior, but it is a bit difficult for them to accurately hit the mobile skirmishers, and the shells are not cheap...

  Besides, the cannon cannot leave the safe zone, so it cannot attack targets 40 kilometers away, so it can only rely on the air force to carry out precise strikes.

  Hearing that there was a problem in the safety zone, Choga nodded decisively and said, "Then don't worry about it, two cluster bombs are being hung."

   As he spoke, Choga glanced at the Su-25 not far away. There were three 20-shot rocket pods and two guided missiles hanging on the two wings of that thing, which looked terribly scary.

  Thinking about the issue of the safe zone, Choja felt that there must be a reason for Isis to suddenly increase its offensive. The shrinking of the US military in Syria should be related to those in the United States.

  On the one hand, it is to encourage the Shah to intervene in Iraq, trying to find trouble for P·B, and by the way, hedging Iran's increasing influence on Iraq.

  On the one hand, it shrinks the military power in Syria, creating opportunities for ISIS people to attack.

   These guys took great pains to trap Boss Joe in Iraq.

Thinking about the fact that these four planes will sprinkle millions of dollars on the ground once they take off, Qiaojia shook his head dejectedly, and said, "Fry it, blow it up, blow them all up at once, and save them later." Clicked."

  Andre is an industry insider, he understands how much the Air Force is depleting.

  Personnel salaries, aircraft maintenance, spare parts replacement, ammunition consumption, fuel consumption, P·B's air force has a busy mission recently, so it costs at least a few million dollars a month.

   This is the situation when everyone is taking it easy, and the normal tasks are dispatched by toucans and griffins-1.

  If it weren't for the need to cross the border to Syria for a surprise attack this time, they would not have dispatched the F-16.

  How can a normal military contracting company afford such consumption?

   After visiting the bombing process, Qiaojia helped check the plane, and learned that the two old aces were recharging their energy, so he didn't bother them at all, and returned to his dormitory with a heavy heart...

   As a result, Qiaojia saw a strange scene when he arrived at the door of the dormitory.

The old thing 'Spider' slowly descended from the top of the 5-story building to the third floor through a rope. When he approached a dormitory window and was about to take out something, Dorian, who was driving, suddenly rang the car. horn...

   Then all the lights in the dormitory building were turned on...

  The 'Spider' hanging outside the dormitory turned his head and glanced at Dorian. He threw a smoke bomb in the direction of the car, and then completed the downhill with one hand before the people in the dormitory could react...

   When the smoke bombs enveloped the car, the 'Spider' rushed to the side of the off-road vehicle, pulled the door and reached out to grab an empty space.

   This made 'Spider' a little strange. He glanced at Boss Joe who was sitting on the co-pilot and raised his hand to signal that he would not participate. Just as he was about to say hello, he felt two hands grabbing his ankles...

   "I caught him, all come down to **** him..."

  Joga heard Dorian, who was hiding under the car, yell, and then saw a cold smile on the face of 'Spider'...

  Knowing that Dorian must be in trouble, Choga grinned harmlessly and said, "Take it easy..."

"ah…"
