Chapter 24 Target: The Iraqi Arms Market

Cai Ruichen had another headache when he thought about how to transport those car skeletons to the ore refinery for recycling more efficiently.

Using manpower to carry is not only unfortunate, but also inefficient at all.

With this method, even if all the current ten mobilized soldiers are sent out, there may not be a few cars recovered in a day.

And with the development of recycling, those cars that are farther away will increase the distance of transportation, and the efficiency will only become lower and lower.

The most important thing is that the monsters have left the town now, and there are monsters around the road. Once the soldiers start to move the cars, they will definitely attract the monsters around.

The protection force must also be in place. At this time, Cai Ruichen can't afford to lose a single soldier.

A seemingly simple matter, but immediately encountered two problems that must be solved.

The power of protection can also be solved by continuing to recruit soldiers. After finding a way to recover funds, Cai Ruichen dares to continue to consume the funds currently owned by the base.

There are nearly 4,000 funds, and if all of them are used to recruit soldiers, another 20 conscripts can be recruited and armed.

With thirty mobilized soldiers, there should be a little guarantee of safety, and the main problem comes back to the handling tools.

The base is now unable to produce forklifts, or other engineering vehicles, and cannot effectively move those car wrecks.

On the construction site not far away, there are indeed several heavy trucks and an excavator.

It is a pity that there is no forklift, and the excavator is not very suitable for handling car wreckage. At best, the mechanical arm of the excavator is used to lift the car, hit it on a heavy truck, and then use the heavy truck to transport it to the edge of the ore refining plant. remove.

But this also involves the aspect of safety. The noise made by the driving of large trucks and the noise of excavators is not small.

Maybe it will attract more monsters in the town. Cai Ruichen can't guarantee whether this will cause the security to go out of control.

But then again, apart from these methods, there is no better way.

Just after he made up his mind, he discovered a more serious problem, that is, there is no diesel here.

Both trucks and excavators are big consumers of diesel oil. There is even a gas station in the small town. I believe the refueling equipment inside is not broken, and there is also a certain amount of fuel storage inside.

But the town is still a restricted area, no matter how much fuel there is, it won't work.

And nearby, apart from the gas station in the small town, there is basically enough diesel in other places.

Thinking of this, Cai Ruichen had a headache again, originally thought that things would develop simply, but the result was exactly the opposite.

After thinking about it, there is another way, that is to transport the fuel from the real space.

Iraq itself is a big oil-producing country, and fuel is almost the cheapest in the world. A liter of diesel at a gas station costs 500 Iraqi dinars (the Iraqi currency), which is only five cents in conversion, and a ton of diesel is only five hundred dollars.

It's just that Cai Ruichen, who already lacks purchasing power, can't just buy a ton of diesel.

Moreover, the problem of food also began to emerge. If another twenty soldiers were recruited, the few dollars left would not last a week at all.

After thinking about it, although he was quite hesitant in his heart, Cai Ruichen had no choice but to start the arms deal.

Arms are the only thing he can afford now, but in a place like Iraq, guns are not worth much.

If the AK-47 produced with 50 funds is sold for a thousand dollars in Iraq, even if it is exactly the same as the original AK-47 factory, the technical level is still higher, but at most it will increase by two to three hundred dollars. The price at the top is fifteen hundred dollars.

And at this price,

It also depends on the regional environment.

The price of firearms in the black market can be said to be an indicator of the severity of violent conflicts in a certain area. In more stable areas, the price of AK47 is about 200 to 400 US dollars. If the price is as low as 100 US dollars, it may indicate that the state of conflict in the area has suddenly stopped.

If the price of an AK47 rises above $1,000, it would be a sign that the conflict in the region is long and protracted and ongoing.

There is no shortage of weapons workshops in Iraq, and many families are even assembling AK-47s and selling them.

The price is also maintained at around 1,000 US dollars, which is considered the most expensive place.

As for the other two assault rifles, Cai Ruichen did not have such an idea. The export model of the Type 95 Type 97 is priced at more than 3,000 US dollars each, but there is no market for these things in Iraq.

Mainly because of the bullet, there are almost no 5.8mm bullets in Iraq.

Either it is NATO's 5.56 bullets, if it is not AK-47 bullets, other types of bullets, and a little more is heavy machine gun and pistol bullets.

As for the production of the M16 rifle, not many people are willing to buy this thing, and the market has always been several times worse than that of the AK-47.

Of course, there are also very expensive weapons. The price of an SVD sniper rifle can often reach more than three thousand dollars, and an SVD barrel can often be sold for more than one thousand dollars.

The average price of dedicated sniper bullets is more than ten dollars each.

It also has to be said that Iraq, which has been in war all year round, has a huge demand for weapons.

Moreover, the oil in Iraq has allowed many armed forces to easily obtain a large amount of money, making the price of weapons much more expensive than other regions.

In Africa or neighboring Syria, an AK-47 bullet, a non-original bullet, is only seven to eight cents per cent, and the original one is twice as expensive.

The price here in Iraq is, on the whole, twice or more expensive than in other places.

Cai Ruichen has always wanted to open up the Iraqi weapons market. If ordinary assault rifles are zero-profit, then five funds can produce 200 rounds of bullets, which can be said to be huge profits.

300% profit is enough to make people crazy, even if they trample on the law.

Two hundred rounds of ammunition can be sold for more than six hundred dollars. Even if the value of the funds is not measurable in dollars, the profit of the price-to-value ratio is at least ten times higher.

Three times the profit can make him go to extremes, and ten times the profit can make everyone crazy.

Cai Ruichen is no exception. He has set his sights on the bullet market long ago. Except for 5.8mm bullets, he can sell various types of bullets at will.

The choice of the Type 95 assault rifle was not only due to his complex, but also his own considerations.

And the reason why he won't sell 5.8mm bullets is because he decided that his troops will use assault rifles and squad machine guns of this caliber in the future.

Once there is a large-scale military conflict in the future, it can also prevent the enemy from obtaining their own weapons and use them.

Originally, according to the plan, Cai Ruichen would not start selling weapons so early, but the plan could not keep up with the changes.

In exchange for oil production, and in order to be able to feed more and more soldiers, no matter how many concerns there are, they must make concessions to practical problems.

Once he figured out what to do next, Cai Ruichen didn't hesitate, and directly chose to recruit 20 conscripts, and prepared weapons and equipment for these 20 soldiers.

He specially produced a batch of weapons that were not too large, and notified El Yeser to put the weapons produced later in another place.

Looking at the rapidly passing funds on the console, Cai Ruichen immediately came to his office and began to plan how to exchange arms for diesel and cash tomorrow.
