Chapter 497 - 244 Purchase Warthog_3
So-called stocking up means dismantling usable parts from retired planes in the airplane graveyard, slapping on labels declaring them as scrapped and unfit for use. Officially they’re destroyed and sold off at scrap metal prices, but in reality, they’re sold to various companies or arms dealers at a discount.
Money from the scrap goes to the top since indeed those things are sold. Profits from the fighter jet parts are split among ourselves.
You’re asking for scrap metal prices, I gave it to you, what do I care about the money for used parts?
"Deal!" Allen Zhang smiled, shaking hands and immediately striking a deal with the other party. He paid a $200,000 deposit and took away the two turbofan engines. Follow-up transactions would still take place here, paying $200,000 for each batch of parts delivered.
After setting up a time and place, Marusen also used the warehouse’s crane to load the two engines onto a truck. The several-ton weight even pressed the truck slightly downward.
"What are you guys planning to do with the Warthog?" As he packed and loaded the two turbofan engines onto the truck, Marusen asked with some curiosity, "I hope you’re not planning to use it recklessly on home soil."
"We certainly have a place where we can use it, don’t worry, it won’t involve you. Actually, my friend is in the arms business. If the price is right for this A-10 Warthog Attack Plane, I’m likely going to sell it to someone in need," Allen Zhang said with a slight smile.
Marusen was satisfied with this response.
After receiving the payment notification and closing the warehouse door, he got into his pickup truck, "I’ll send you a message when the goods arrive. Goodbye."
"Goodbye. Pleasure doing business." Watching him leave, Allen Zhang also got into a vehicle with his team and drove to a suburban airport carrying the two turbofan engines.
After all, assembly operations require a large space, and the only location equipped for that right now is a suburban hangar, big enough to accommodate an entire Warthog Attack Plane.
He entered the hangar code, drove the two turbofan engines into the hangar for storage, and told Qibatu, "If we’re short on maintenance equipment, let me know, and I’ll order it online. If we need more hands, you can go to Old Pick’s auto repair shop to find some helpers, or I know some people at the modification shop in the suburbs who are skilled in customization."
