Chapter 94 Good Luck
After obtaining the most urgent technical data for the Glock pistol family, Wang Xiuyuan really hadn't decided what he needed to buy for a moment.
The research and development time for other series of firearms was still several years away, some even ten or twenty years later, so there was no rush at all.
After thinking it over, Wang Xiuyuan decided to save his sin points for now and just buy whatever he needed once he thought of it.
However, he still decided to try a few lottery draws first; what if he got lucky?
He hadn't had time to check the treasure clues he drew last time, and he hadn't decided how to use the seventy-two counterfeit liquor recipes yet; he needed to utilize these two resources as soon as possible.
Wang Xiuyuan directly started a ten-draw streak.
"Thank you for your patronage," "Thank you for your patronage."
"Thank you for your patronage," "Thank you for your patronage."
"Thank you for your patronage," "Ding! Reward: Russian Language Mastery."
"Thank you for your patronage," "Thank you for your patronage."
"Ding! Reward: One set of treasure map coordinates," "Thank you for your patronage."
Winning two items in a ten-draw streak, Wang Xiuyuan's luck today was indeed quite good.
Russian Language Mastery alone was enough to break even, since a language proficiency cost 10,000 sin points in the sin mall; the other treasure map coordinate information was pure profit.
He briefly checked the treasure information; the coordinates were actually in Munich, Germany.
Wang Xiuyuan couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief; luckily it was the city of Munich, making it convenient to find the treasure when he had time.
Munich was located in West Germany, controlled by the Western bloc led by America; if it were in East Germany, controlled by the Soviet Union, it would be a hassle, with all the screenings and visas required to go there.
Taking advantage of his good luck today, Wang Xiuyuan simply started another two ten-draw streaks.
"Thank you for your patronage," "Thank you for your patronage," "Thank you for your patronage."
"Thank you for your patronage," "Thank you for your patronage," "Thank you for your patronage."
"Thank you for your patronage," "Ding! Reward: Mastery Level Pistol Marksmanship," "Thank you for your patronage."
"Thank you for your patronage," "Thank you for your patronage," "Thank you for your patronage."
"Ding! Reward: One full set of technical data for the SCAR series assault rifles," "Thank you for your patronage," "Thank you for your patronage."
"Thank you for your patronage," "Thank you for your patronage," "Thank you for your patronage."
"Thank you for your patronage," "Ding! Reward: Master-level Black Dragon Eighteen Hands."
Holy shit!
When he saw the winning items from this twenty-draw streak, Wang Xiuyuan felt like he was flying with joy.
Master-level Black Dragon Eighteen Hands (Price: 20,000 sin points), Mastery Level Pistol Marksmanship (Price: 10,000 sin points), Full set of technical data for the SCAR series assault rifles (Price: 150,000 sin points).
Wang Xiuyuan had truly struck it rich this time; not a single reward was useless.
Needless to say, the Black Dragon Eighteen Hands was a set of enemy-defeating boxing techniques developed by the Heilongjiang Armed Police Corps through years of research and practical combat experience.
The full name of this technique was the Heilongjiang Armed Police Eighteen Grappling Hands; it was finalized in 1981 and, after being tested in combat within the Heilongjiang Armed Police Corps, began to be fully promoted in 1983.
However, because the moves of this boxing style were too insidious and caused numerous problems due to their excessive lethality, the Black Dragon Eighteen Hands was eventually banned from study by the military.
However, Wang Xiuyuan already had Master-level Baji Quan for self-defense, so the Master-level Black Dragon Eighteen Hands was optional for him.
But since he got it from the draw, Wang Xiuyuan didn't mind too much; it would be excellent to use as a trump card, given how vicious and ruthless this style was.
In comparison, Mastery Level Pistol Marksmanship was much more practical, complementing the Master-level Rifle Marksmanship he had previously purchased; if he had the chance to exchange for master-level shotgun, sniper rifle, and machine gun marksmanship, that would be the realm of marksmanship perfection.
The most important prize in this draw was undoubtedly the full set of technical data for the SCAR series assault rifles; the SCAR series is a modular assault rifle designed and developed by the Belgian company FN Herstal according to the requirements of the United States Special Operations Command.
This was also the third generation of the AR series assault rifles.
If Wang Xiuyuan remembered correctly, the SCAR assault rifle began small-scale mass production and limited distribution to troops in 2007, and began testing in the United States Special Operations Command units in 2009.
Soon after, the SCAR assault rifle began to be issued to U.S. Army Special Forces in Afghanistan, U.S. Air Force Special Tactics Squadrons, and U.S. Navy SEALs.
The SCAR assault rifle is mainly divided into two versions, the L (Light) and H (Heavy), with four tactical rails that can be freely equipped with various tactical accessories.
The mature, full-form version of the SCAR assault rifle had a basketful of advantages; its only drawback was its price, which was painfully expensive.
Even the wealthy America only dared to purchase a small amount to issue to elite special forces like the SEALs, Air Force Special Tactics Squadrons, and Army Special Forces in Afghanistan.
Don't be fooled by the SCAR assault rifle's base price of just over $2,000; the point is that this is the price for the basic naked gun.
If you add various tactical accessories, the cost becomes like a house renovation—a damn bottomless pit where you can burn any amount of money.
Take the SCAR-H PR sniper rifle, for example; it is a semi-automatic sniper model improved based on the SCAR-H assault rifle.
By replacing the 7.62×51mm caliber barrel of the standard SCAR-H assault rifle with a longer one and adding an optical sight,
the range of this thing can reach 1,000 meters, and within 800 meters, it basically hits wherever you point it, which is quite ridiculous.
So, a SCAR assault rifle fully equipped with a standard set of tactical accessories for special operations would basically cost $10,000 to $20,000; the accessories alone could buy another five to ten SCAR assault rifles.
But the SCAR assault rifle is just too good to use; with four modular tactical rails, you can hang anything on it, and a lot of it.
From grenade launchers to optical sights, cameras, flashlights, and infrared lasers, anything you can think of can be attached.
Other than being expensive, the mature version of the SCAR assault rifle really has no flaws.
But is being expensive a flaw of the SCAR assault rifle? That's a flaw of the broke people with no money; what does it have to do with the SCAR assault rifle?
Therefore, the sales of the SCAR assault rifle were extremely hot after its launch; at one point, it was hard to find due to production not keeping up, and a naked gun was eventually driven up to over $9,000.
It was exactly like when the early iPhones were released, but the SCAR assault rifle's markup was significantly higher; its price was artificially inflated fourfold, whereas the iPhone couldn't achieve that effect due to its massive shipment volume.
With the SCAR assault rifle and Glock pistol as a foundation, Wang Xiuyuan was now becoming more and more confident in his arms business; at the very least, integrating into the American military-industrial complex would not be a problem.
Currently, he had over 237,000 sin points left; he could completely buy another set of technical data for the SIG Sauer series or HK series firearms, but only if he could make use of them.
What he should do most right now is to produce the Glock pistols and SCAR assault rifles.
The reason he didn't press his luck and continue drawing was that Wang Xiuyuan wanted to use the sin points to buy pharmaceutical data.
Besides the military-industrial complex, America also has two other behemoths: the medical-insurance complex and the financial complex; if there was a chance to get in, why wouldn't Wang Xiuyuan try to squeeze in!
