King Of War: Starting with Arms Dealer

```

Major General Maguire just hadn't expected Joe Ga to play this game so adeptly...

In America, people 'despise' bribery because they think it lacks technical prowess.

Channeling investments into charitable funds holding for certain people, investing in privately held funds, providing insider information, placing high salaries for the children of VIPs and so forth are the mainstream ways of networking.

The captured Howard is a typical private fund manager, helping influential people hold shares and make money they shouldn't be making.

Joe Ga used a relatively simple but safer method since he owns a bank, and he decides how much the investments yield.

This seems a bit like binding in advance!

Major General Maguire knew Joe Ga was waiting for him to show his commitment; the more he invested, the more sincerity he showed, representing a closer partnership and naturally, greater returns.

Watching Joe Ga's grinning face, Major General Maguire thought for a moment and said, "I need to contact my accountant, then I can give you a precise answer, but I am very interested in the bonds of North Kivu Province of Congo..."

Joe Ga, satisfied, nodded. What he wanted was an attitude; roping in a Major General was very beneficial for P·B.

Even if this guy came to P·B, he would only hold a consulting title and not really work in an office.

Giving money was nothing; the defense budget of America is so extravagant, pulling out a bit could double the earnings back.

After shaking hands with Maguire, Joe Ga said with a smile, "Anyway, I'll keep the bonds for you, I'm not in a rush.

You help me inquire about the bullet production line, that's more important to me."

Major General Maguire smiled and nodded, "No problem, I'll get back to you within a week. If you have any 'laboratory' products, bring them to me, I'll send them to some old friends to see if they might be interested."

Joe Ga was very pleased with Maguire's reciprocation, indicating clearly that as long as there were samples, he could secure funding.

People who rise to Major General have keen insights; Joe Ga previously thought about getting involved in experimental tasks to skim benefits, but Maguire was thinking directly about creating projects to skim.

Raising his thumb to Maguire, Joe Ga said with a smile, "Let's talk in detail after I finish my current affairs, I see potential in this project."

Turning to Bayar who was nearby, Joe Ga spread his hands and said, "Buddy, watching me won't help, I'm discussing legitimate business with Mr. Maguire."

Bayar glanced indifferently at Maguire, sighed about the rapid deterioration of politicians with no vision for the future, then helplessly said, "Gentlemen, give me a quiet space, I need to finish the report, and then coordinate personnel to follow up on people Harlotte has been in contact with."

Continuing, Bayar looked at Maguire and said, "Sir, don't forget, the Counter-Terrorism Center still has significant matters, like the unresolved clues of the New Jersey terrorist attack, we need to eliminate the risks before Donald Depp's speech is held."

Joe Ga waved dismissively, "You go after Harlotte, I'll handle the New Jersey matter.

I will have Thompson prepare a report for you guys, then you just need to sign it, and the credit for eliminating those terrorists will include you too."

Looking at Maguire, Joe Ga smiled and said, "Sir, you believe me, don't you?"

Maguire nodded seriously, "Of course, I trust P·B's combat capability more than anyone else now.

However, your technical means are still lacking; the Counter-Terrorism Center can request drone support for your operations.

I will organize a team on standby at any time to provide you with logistical support..."

Joe Ga was extremely satisfied with this outcome, he smiled and shook hands with Maguire, saying, "Then I'll trouble you with that, you guys continue, I'll go check the prison, the Russians captured yesterday are my targets, they wanted to kill my people, so they need to pay a price..."

Just as Joe Ga stepped out of the command center, his phone rang...

Looking at the number, Joe Ga grinned and answered, "Hey, good day, Mr. Profanity, how can I be of service to you?"

```

"Aaron on the phone froze for a moment, then sighed and said, 'Hu Lang, I'm in trouble!'"

"Joe Ga paused for a moment, and then laughed, 'Isn't it normal for a bastard like you to be in trouble?'"

"This time, Aaron's tone was a bit heavy, and he seriously said, 'I'm really in trouble this time. Someone is investigating a nuclear physicist, but that person is in my hands...'"

"This time, it was Joe Ga's turn to be stunned. He hadn't anticipated that his killing of Harlotte would lead Aaron into this..."

"He didn't know whether to laugh or to comfort Aaron, and after a few minutes of silence, he said, 'When I killed Harlotte yesterday, he wanted to use the information of that nuclear physicist to save his own life. I didn't give him a chance...'"

"Being a shrewd man, Aaron sighed upon hearing this and complained, 'You blew the lid on the Niger issue, didn't you? I guessed it had something to do with you when I saw the photo of Harlotte's corpse, and I felt it would cause trouble. Hu Lang, those people have massive influence, and I just so happen to be involved, I'm in trouble!'"

"Listening to this, Joe Ga knew Aaron was indeed in trouble. He couldn't hand over the nuclear physicist because that would mean his own dealings being exposed."

"Thinking about it, this guy was really unfortunate. Seeking revenge should have been a pleasurable thing, but it seemed like fate was intent on diminishing his pleasure."

"'So what are you planning to do now?'"

"After a moment of silence on the phone, Aaron said through gritted teeth, 'I have a way to deal with the pursuit, but if you, this bastard, don't cooperate, those people might do irrational things fearing a full conflict with Energy Group. Boss, whatever benefits those people offer you, just take them down!'

'FUCK, what the hell is all this mess!'"

"Joe Ga, cautiously saying, 'So should I talk to Howard? He said he can offer me a contract for only two billion...'"

"'FUCK, what more do you want with two billion? Go to Kandahar, or some other place, do some logistics work and you can earn that much, what more do you want? FUCK, you bastard, can't you be a bit more subtle? America isn't Iraq, can't you be less impulsive? Harlotte was so pitiful, why did you have to mess with him, FUCK...'"

"After listening to Aaron cursing for two minutes, he harshly hung up the phone..."

"Joe Ga rubbed his nose, then said to Ayu beside him, 'I actually really don't want to take on this business, but it seems like I'd be letting my friends down if I don't...'"

"Ayu didn't understand what Joe Ga was talking about. She spread her hands and said, 'Boss, the more business, the better...'"

"Joe Ga dismissed it with a wave of his hand, 'Taking money means doing things for people, but this time it's really not certain, haha...'"

"Speaking of which, Joe Ga waved to Ayu, 'Let's hurry. I feel like I must be favored by Lady Luck. I need to check out the situation with Thompson. I have a feeling, Thompson must have something... The gangs are just the muscles; Black Hand is the key. I need to catch him, kill him, cut off Rashiri's Black Hand! That old lady has a ruthless heart, I need to show her how ruthless people really operate!'"
