Chapter 9: Guns are a man's favorite
Da
If Old Mike were placed in the world of martial arts, he would likely be of the caliber of a Sweeping Monk
Hadi smiled
At this moment, the sky has gradually darkened, and guests have been arriving one after another. Hadi, Sean, and Reid got out of the car, and the guard at the entrance greeted the three of them and allowed them to enter
Hadi thought of something, took a bite of his hamburger, and asked Sean: "Do you have a way to buy guns? I want to buy a few guns for use"
"Old Mike, Jon wants a few handy tools," Sean interrupted Old Mike's words
Click!
He picked up a gun from the shelf, gave its body a firm slap, and said to Hardy
... ...
Finding a small restaurant, Sean ordered a hamburger and coffee, and while eating, he said: "Now we can take a break, usually around three or four in the afternoon, the bars and nightclubs open, we can go for a stroll and ensure their safety"
After having dinner, the three of them drove to a gun shop in the suburbs. The gun shop was quite large. When they got out of the car, Sean said: "Old Mike is also one of our gang members. He sells firearms through legitimate channels and also sells illegal guns. Most of the gang members get their supplies from him."
Two M1911 pistols were taken, the two that Bill had before. After killing Cook, they were disassembled and thrown into the river. Hardy decided to replace them for him
Sean smiled and said: "Jon, Marisa is the most beautiful woman among the bunny girls, full of charm, attracting many guests, and the boss gives her the highest commission."
"Jon Hardy, who is Bill's brother, is currently in charge of Bill's affairs as Bill is injured," Sean introduced.
Hadi has completely merged with his consciousness and is indeed very familiar with this rifle. Upon receiving the gun handed over by Old Mike, he felt an unparalleled sense of ease.
The warehouse is filled with shelves, on which various weapons are displayed
What about submachine guns, would you like to have one? The Thompson submachine gun, famously known as the Chicago Typewriter, and the German MP40 submachine gun, as well as the STG44...
Sean continued, "Many men pursue her, but few can actually win her over"
Hadi did not think much and requested a Chicago typewriter, which is simply the perfect match for gangsters
M1941 Johnson semi-automatic rifle, issued to the Marine Corps, you should be quite familiar with it
He has never spoken to us like this, including Bill, yet today he is very enthusiastic towards you. It seems that being handsome makes one popular with women
Smiling, he extended his hand to shake hands with the other party
Old Mike nodded and said, "Alright, follow me"
He spoke as he picked up the gun and fired repeatedly at the iron plate, without any time to aim. With each shot, the iron plate erupted with a loud bang, and after finishing, the old man left gracefully
We will discuss it further if necessary
Hadi pulled the gun's bolt with force
"What about collecting the debts?" Hardy asked
Let's find a place to sit, there is actually very little to do said Sean
Leading the way ahead
OK, no problem. Old Mike readily agreed
Old Mike nodded with a smile
Hadi does not have gynophobia
As they walked in, a tall, striking woman with a head full of golden hair, dressed in a red coat, passed by, greeted Sean, and finally directed her gaze towards Hardy
A pair of keen eyes looked him up and down with great interest
Old Mike, with his hair graying and a bushy beard, opened his eyes and got up from the recliner. He looked at Sean, then turned to Hardy and asked, "Who is this?"
Behind the gun shop, there is a shooting range. Hadi brought his own gun to the shooting range to practice. Facing the 50-meter target, he hit almost every shot, and the metal target rang out with each hit.
Old Mike smiled and said, "Alright, come over and take what you need, I will give you a discounted price"
"I want this one," Hadi said immediately
Hadi thought of a word
Nightclub Princess
"In the evening, I will make the rounds one by one, inquiring about the sales of alcoholic beverages, and obtain the orders for the next day. Typically, we finish work around one or two in the morning," Sean said in a relaxed tone.
Old Mike smiled and said, "I am not just capable of selling guns; selecting and maintaining them is also my forte. I meticulously choose these guns during procurement, and after bringing them back, I personally maintain them, ensuring that each gun here is in optimal condition."
Hadi thought to himself
Old Mike curled his lips and said, "A hen lays eggs with just the cost of a little squatting, do you think I will give you the eggs for free?"
"Old Mike, all these guns are second-hand goods you've collected. Moreover, the production cost of these guns is only a few dozen dollars; you are selling them at too high a price," Sean interjected from the side.
Sean quickly introduced, "Jon Hardy, my new boss, he is now in charge of this area"
The woman with brown eyes looked at Hardy, smiled, and extended her hand, "Hello, Mr. Hardy, may I get to know you?"
Of course, that is good
Looking at Old Mike's somewhat stooped figure
Hadi was amused by the old man's words, "100 dollars, send 200 rounds of ammunition."
The old man nodded slightly, "Hmm, I can sense that aura in you. You must have experienced quite a few battles. I was also a soldier and participated in World War I, fighting for the Austro-Hungarian Empire. Unfortunately, the country was defeated, and the Austro-Hungarian Empire disappeared. I later made my way to the United States..."
Old Mike nodded beside him, "What Joe said is correct; to improve shooting skills, one must practice more"
Hadi somewhat understood that helping casinos and loan companies collect debts is essentially a way to earn extra income; it is optional for him to engage in this work as he can choose to do it or not.
There are still machine guns, grenades, and even explosives in the warehouse. The old man asked Hadi if he wanted any, but Hadi shook his head in refusal
Finally, Hardy saw the Winchester M1887 repeating shotgun again. He remembered how Cook had shot him with this very gun and thought to himself that he must acquire one in the future. Now, seeing it with Old Mike, Hardy did not hesitate and made the purchase immediately
If someone causes trouble, we will take action to drive those damned drunks out, which is usually easy to resolve. Our main focus should be on other gang members who might come to cause disturbances, although such situations are rare. Each gang has its own territory, and members of other gangs generally do not intrude.
Old Mike walked up to Hardy, looked him up and down a few times, and said, "You must have been in the military, right?"
However, in this society, who does not work hard
"Yes, the Marine Corps," said Hardy
He then selected a very beautiful Colt revolver
As they spoke, the three of them pushed open the door and walked in
My honor
"Shooting skills are developed through the use of bullets. When you have fired several thousand or even tens of thousands of rounds, you too can become a sharpshooter," Hadi said
Guns and cars are a man's greatest love; almost no man can resist guns and automobiles, just as girls cannot refuse Barbie dolls and plush toys
She just looked at you in a way that seems to indicate interest; put in some effort, and perhaps in the future, you will have the opportunity to climb into her bed
Sean secretly made a face at Hardy and said in a low voice: "Whenever a newcomer arrives, he will start rambling about his old stories."
105 US dollars, and I will give you 100 rounds of ammunition
Shall we have a drink together when you are free
In simple terms, it is about overseeing the situation
While he speaks of discounts, the old man charges every cent. Three long guns and three short guns, along with matching ammunition, ultimately totaled four hundred sixty dollars
The woman's figure is very tall; Hadi is now over 1.8 meters, and Marisa, standing in front of him, is surprisingly not much shorter.
In ancient China, it should be referred to as a courtesan.
"Jon, your marksmanship is truly impressive; we might not even hit the target once with ten shots," Sean said enviously
"Buying a gun, no problem. After dinner, I will take you to find Old Mike," Sean said
Previously, Bill's gun was discarded into the Los Angeles River by Hardy after the murder; he needed to prepare some handy tools for himself
In Hardy's view, what they earn is merely hard-earned money
"Old Mike, there is business coming in!" Sean shouted at an old man lying in a recliner.
Marisa slightly curled her red lips towards Hardy, revealing a smile, then turned and walked away in high heels, her waist twisting like a willowy enchantress
Continue moving forward to reach the submachine gun area
This price is not low; it is approximately equivalent to half a month's salary of an ordinary worker
After a long while, Ryder finally withdrew his gaze from the woman's silhouette and said to Hardy with a tone full of envy
Old Mike walked ahead and introduced
A few people walked up to a large iron gate. Old Mike took out a large bunch of keys from his pocket to unlock the gate. As the gate swung open, Hardy's eyes lit up.
In a gang-infested environment, where danger can arise at any moment, how can one be without a firearm for self-defense
Yesterday, Hadi received one thousand eight hundred US dollars, and immediately spent one quarter of it, but he spent the money joyfully
Marisa took two steps forward, the sound of her high heels clicking on the wooden floor echoed, and she stopped right in front of Hardy
Sean and Ryder were also shooting nearby, but their scores were significantly lower and could not be compared to Hardie.
This rifle is well maintained, Hadi remarked as he touched the firearm
In later generations, there are many such individuals in KTVs, who warm up the atmosphere and attract patrons to consume, but the Marisa in front of me is likely the most exceptional among them
Many of these guns are used, some of which have been discarded from the battlefield, including the M1 Garand rifle, M1 carbine, Mauser 98 rifle, and British Enfield rifle
Gently pull the trigger
Sean, who is this handsome guy
After playing until around 4 PM, they left Old Mike's Gun Shop, wandered through a few bars, and finally arrived at the Bunny Girl Nightclub
Additionally, assisting casinos and loan companies in debt collection involves going to the company to take on tasks and seeking out work independently. I believe it would be better to engage in that once you are familiar with the business at hand.
Jon, this is Marisa
We only have one fixed account, which is to ask the Spaniards for the cocoa powder share. Oh, it was previously Cook, but you have already killed him. I don't know who it will be next. " Sean said as he looked at Hardy
