Chapter 174 This is selling weapons, not used underwear!

Then, hearing this, the expression on Wang Dachui's fat face froze.

And next, the person calling claimed to be introduced by A White Cloth on the Head.

Wang Dachui got angry as soon as he heard this name. It was precisely because of this Hassan that their factory embarked on the path of no return of being requisitioned, and it also caused his boss to bear the reputation of an arms dealer.

Regarding this, he felt indignant for his boss. In his view, including this Hassan, everyone else was screwing over his boss, including Liu Jianguo, the brat, and the punk old man.

He felt that in the whole world, only he was his boss's loyal dog.

Immediately, he concluded that this call was a prank by a bored Netizen.

"Buying weapons?" "Netizens nowadays are truly idle." This thought surfaced in his mind.

Ever since his boss was crowned a Militia General by the entire internet, he could receive eight hundred such strange private messages a day.

Some asked if there were nuclear bombs, some asked if they could manufacture Gundams, and some even asked if they could paint an aircraft carrier pink.

In Wang Dachui's view, this was definitely another bored Netizen who had watched his boss's live stream and specifically called to play a prank.

"Fine, since you want to act, then I'll play along with you!" "When it comes to bragging, I, Wang Dachui, have never admired anyone except my boss!"

Thinking of this at the time, Wang Dachui took a deep breath and got into character.

He cleared his throat and adopted an arrogant, disdainful tone, the kind of tune that could only be heard from arms dealers in movies.

"Buying weapons?" Wang Dachui said to the phone with a contemptuous tone, "That's right. If you come to our Li Family Toy Factory and don't buy weapons, do you really think you want to buy toys?"

The other end of the phone seemed to be shaken by this aura and was silent for a moment.

Seeing this, Wang Dachui was even more convinced that the other party was a naive Netizen, so he decided to increase the intensity and have some fun with this boring guy.

He propped his legs up on his desk and bluffed on the phone:

"You should also know that our Li Family Toy Factory is the largest private military factory in the Eastern Country!"

"Our products have been tested in real combat! They can blow up tanks and stop aircraft carriers! In the industry, they are well-reputed!"

Speaking of this, he paused for a moment, as if giving the other party time to digest the information, and then used a very pretentious tone to make up a title for himself:

"As for me, I am the Li Family Toy Factory's β€” East Asia Region Spokesperson!"

"Speak, what do you want? Just ask! As long as you can say it, there is nothing we can't build!"

Wang Dachui felt that with his acting skills, it would be a waste if he didn't win an Oscar.

He waited for the other party to be scared off by his momentum or to be unable to hold back laughter.

However, the reaction on the other end of the phone was completely beyond his expectations.

That voice didn't laugh, nor was it flustered; instead, it became more serious, even revealing a hint of fanaticism:

"Very good. This is exactly the kind of confidence we need."

"We have a major operation recently and need a large amount of high-quality equipment."

The other party paused and said something that surprised Wang Dachui:

"Whatever you produce, that's what we want."

Wang Dachui was stunned.

"Oh? This Netizen is really deep into character, huh?" "Still 'whatever you produce, that's what we want'? Such big talk?"

He was speechless, feeling that the other party's bragging was even bigger than his own.

Of course, he was even more convinced that the other party was a Netizen. After all, what kind of armed group just takes whatever someone else produces?

Since the other party was so cooperative, he couldn't drop the ball either.

Wang Dachui rolled his eyes, thinking that since you want to act like a big spender, I'll give you something tough and directly scare you off with money.

Therefore, holding the mentality of 'if you dare to ask, I dare to sell', he sneered at the phone:

"Fine, that's big talk."

"Since you were introduced by A White Cloth on the Head, we can consider ourselves fated. However, you know the rules of our trade."

Wang Dachui deliberately dragged out his tone and said in an unquestionable voice:

"Here, we don't offer credit. The rule is, pay first, then ship!"

"Also, to ensure the safety of the transaction, we only accept full prepayment. After all, you know our production capacity is very tight; people wanting goods are lined up until next year."

After speaking, Wang Dachui was secretly pleased with himself.

This trick of using full payment to scare people off was a special skill he practiced when he pretended to be a cute girl on Xianyu to sell his own worn underwear to deal with those free-loaders who only asked but never bought.

Generally speaking, upon hearing that full payment was required upfront, and for such an inexplicable arms deal, normal scammers or Netizens would have hung up and started cursing long ago.

He waited to hear the "beep-beep-beep" busy signal from the other end of the phone.

However. The other end of the phone was silent for only two seconds.

Immediately after, that stiff voice sounded again, without the slightest hesitation in its tone, instead carrying a sense of satisfaction as if the deal was done:

"No problem." "Send me the account number. The money will arrive immediately." "Beep, beep, beep."

This time, the phone really hung up.

Wang Dachui held the phone, sitting blankly on the chair, listening to the busy signal, his mouth twitching.

"This." "This guy is acting quite realistically."

He shook his head, threw the phone on the table, and admired the Netizen's acting skills from the bottom of his heart.

"Young people nowadays, just to play a joke, really go through the whole act."

He didn't take this matter to heart at all. The concessions the other party made for the sake of acting were too big, even agreeing to the demand of transferring money first; this simply didn't seem real.

In his view, this was just a small interlude in his boring work, a bit of fun to pass the time.

After bragging, Wang Dachui didn't take it seriously, and then, time flew by to the next day, and on this day, he didn't feel anything was wrong.

That day, the weather in Baishui City was still sunny, but Wang Dachui's mood wasn't very beautiful.

Because he discovered that today's braised pork in the cafeteria was a bit salty.

Just as he was picking his teeth, strolling slowly back to his office, preparing to take a nap.

"Bang!" The office door was pushed open.

The finance girl looked terrified, her hair disheveled from running, waving a freshly printed bank statement in her hand, and shouted at him:

"Manager Wang! Manager Wang! Something big has happened!"

Wang Dachui was startled and almost slid off his chair.

He frowned with dissatisfaction: "What's the panic? If the sky falls, the boss is there to hold it up! Our factory has a background now, what big thing could happen?"

"No, it's not that kind of thing!"

The finance girl ran to his desk, slapped the statement in front of him, her voice trembling:

"Just now, just now! A huge sum of money was suddenly deposited into our company's overseas account!"

"A huge sum?" Wang Dachui curled his lips in disdain.

Since following Factory Director Li, he could be considered someone who had seen the world.

He had seen orders of several million; what kind of huge sum could scare the finance department like this?

"How much money is it? To scare you like this?"

He picked up the statement nonchalantly and glanced at it.

"One, ten, hundred, thousand, ten thousand, ten million."

Counting, Wang Dachui's voice became smaller and smaller, but his eyes grew wider and wider.

Finally, his gaze fixed on the unit symbol after the number β€” USD.

That was, ugly yuan!

"Fifty, fifty million ugly yuan?!"

Wang Dachui sprang up from his chair and let out a scream, "Who the hell transferred this to the wrong account?!"

Fifty million ugly yuan! Converted to RMB, that's several hundred million! It's enough to buy ten of their toy factories!

"It wasn't a mistake." The finance girl swallowed, trembling as she said, "The other party left a message saying that according to yesterday's phone agreement, this is the payment for the goods, please ship as soon as possible."

Wang Dachui's brain buzzed. Yesterday's phone call? Pay first, ship later? That Netizen?!

He only felt the world spinning, his legs went soft, and he slumped onto the floor.

That phone call yesterday. That phone call wanting to buy weapons. That phone call saying "Whatever you produce, that's what we want."

It was actually, damn it, real?!

"It's over." Wang Dachui stared blankly at the ceiling, his mind blank.

He originally just wanted to show off and have some fun. Who could have imagined that this show-off would actually trigger a massive disaster!

This is an arms order for fifty million ugly yuan! And the other party wants the shipment! What is he going to ship with?

Wang Dachui was completely dumbfounded.
