Ephraim and David sang a double act, made a few pretentious remarks, pretended to have finished the discussion, and sat down at the table again.
"We have already discussed it, but one thing needs to be changed," Ephraim said.
"Where, please tell me," Enver said.
"Four weeks is too long. I can only give you two weeks and double the fee. Do you want to make a deal?" Ephraim stretched out his right hand.
"make a deal!"
When Enver heard that he was willing to pay 200,000 US dollars, he held Ephraim's hand without thinking.
The transaction was successfully concluded.
Enver's men quickly entered the scene, and the vigorous packaging change began.
The final effect was even better than expected. Enver's men replaced the heavy wooden and iron boxes with lightweight fiberboards.
A plastic bag weighs only 8 ounces, and by repackaging all the bullets, the total weight was reduced by 180 tons.
That’s 180 tons!
This means fewer shipping times, less fuel consumption, and lower shipping costs.
All these savings will go into Ephraim's own pocket, and the saved freight is enough for them to buy several more villas.
soon.
AEY's first batch of 10 million rounds of ammunition was loaded into trucks and sent to the airport, and then sent to the U.S. military base in Djibouti by transport plane.
Everything went smoothly and the delivery went into the regular process.
Ephraim flew back to the United States and continued to be responsible for communication with the Ministry of Defense, while David continued to be in charge of shipments in Albania.
Long Zhan has basically understood the abilities of the two of them, and he will make the final decision after completing this order.
So there is no rush.
We might as well continue to stay in Albania with David, hanging out in various bars every day and experiencing all the wonderful things that Eastern European Americans have to offer.
Don’t live your little life too comfortably.
After two days like this, Ephraim suddenly called David.
"Man, you want to hear something really fucked up?" Ephraim said on the phone.
"Huh? What's going on?" David said.
"To ask about the packaging situation, I called Bashgim specifically to have a few words today. Do you know that his uncle works in the Albanian Ministry of Defense?" Ephram said.
"No, I don't know." David replied.
"His uncle works there, so I asked casually, because I have always been curious about how much Henry Salon pays Albanians for AK bullets. See if he knows the price. Guess what he said..."
Ephraim raised his tone and swore: "That son of a bitch, he only paid them 2.5 cents for each bullet, but he actually charged us four times the money."
"Efram, so what."
David was not angry, but thought it was normal and retorted: "Although he charged 4 times our money, he only made 7.5 million US dollars in total.
We actually do the same thing as him, and we can make 20 million US dollars by selling it."
"But this is the contract we negotiated, and because he and his damn country made bullets, we almost lost our pants." Ephram said angrily.
"But aren't we doing a good job now?" David said.
"That's not the point. My point is, we have to find a way to kick this do-nothing bastard out of our business," Ephraim said.
"Evram, don't be like this." David felt something was wrong.
Henry Girard is a big boss in the industry. Not only does he have sufficient resources, he is also someone who is not easy to mess with.
Otherwise, he would not have the status and wealth he has today in the arms market.
Ephraim and David have just come out, and they are still two completely new newcomers. It is very irrational to offend the industry bosses.
David just wants to make money safely, and it doesn't matter to him if he makes less.
He doesn't want to cause trouble!
"No, listen to me..."
"I was serious."
Ephraim wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by David and then continued: "We want to make money, and he also wants to make money. We don't interfere with each other. Everything is going on in an intense and orderly manner. Don't mess him up."
Man."
"I don't care so much, it's him who is causing trouble." Ephraim still didn't want to give up.
"I am very serious. If you dare to interfere, I will take the fastest flight back immediately and have a good chat with you in person." David said.
"Oh, man, you don't have to threaten me, okay? We're partners," Ephraim said.
"That's right, but I'm very worried about your performance. I found this business, and I'm working my ass off here, while you're sitting in your office in Miami drinking, please don't refill mine, okay?"
David said angrily.
"How could I not help?" Ephraim said speechlessly.
"Teach Henry the same ideals as you teach everyone else in the company," David said.
"You are right, Henry Girard is also our partner. Without him, there would be no such profitable business. I just want to vindicate us, but it may be too much. Don't worry, brother, I don't
It will touch him."
Ephraim stood up as he spoke, walked to David's office, and opened David's desk drawer.
"OK."
David didn't know about Ephraim's actions, and thought that Ephraim had been convinced, and said happily: "We can't act on impulse now, man."
"Okay, I'll call you in a few days. Goodbye."
Ephraim hung up the phone and looked at the contract documents in the drawer on his desk, his expression became ugly.
This document is a share-sharing contract that David specifically asked for money from Ephraim when he was about to leave.
At the beginning, the cooperation between Ephraim and David was just a verbal agreement, and the money earned was divided between the two.
David felt that what he said verbally was not very good, after all, the business has grown big now.
So before departure, I went to Ephraim specifically and signed this sharing contract.
David should have taken it.
It's a pity he didn't!
So two nights later, two masked men burst into David's room, beat him up, and tried to put him in the trunk and take him away.
Fortunately, Long Zhan, who heard the sound, rushed over and rescued David who was almost kidnapped in time.
And with a little trickery, they learned from the two kidnappers that they were Henry Girard's men and had been ordered to take David there.
"Isn't Henry Girard a collaborator? Why did you send someone to kidnap David?"
Long Zhan felt that there was something fishy in this matter, so he simply asked two masked men to drive and take him and David to meet Henry Girard in person.
