Chapter 360: Chapter 198 Black-hearted Jimmy_2

But this really is a way to make money; just that folks without the skills or connections can’t get into this business.

"Where do you guys normally conduct the sorghum seeds trade?" Allen Zhang asked again.

"In the rental car shop’s storage warehouse, that’s where my people take orders, haul, and deliver the goods."

Jimmy then took the two to visit the rental warehouse. As the door swung open, they saw bags of adulterated sorghum seeds piled up, with workers packaging and shipping on the assembly line.

"It’s profitable to do this in Austin, but to avoid trouble, we mainly ship out of town. After all, if locals received our goods, they’d definitely give me a hard time, and that would be bad."

Jimmy said helplessly, "I recently messed up the shipping address by accident and pissed off some street thugs. They came in the middle of the night and smashed up my car. But thankfully, I had Jason’s friend help out. He hacked into their archives and found some criminal evidence. We met up, negotiated a compensation which settled the matter. Otherwise, I don’t even want to think about how big my losses would be!"

"Are you talking about Blitz?" Allen Zhang asked.

"Exactly, his capabilities are indeed great, aren’t they? He dug up all the dirt on those guys! Because of that, I’m somewhat known around here, and no one dares to mess with me intentionally," Jimmy said with a proud smile.

"Blitz is really incredible, he’s a professional in this area, and we are also good friends," Allen Zhang said with a smile.

"I’ve heard about it! After all, you’re a big boss with many assets under your name—bars, gun shops, repair workshops, recycling stations, making lots of money every day without lifting a finger! I can’t compare to you," Jimmy said a bit enviously.

Frankly speaking, the General Sect Leader now doesn’t have to do anything all day, just lying there can easily rake in 7-8 thousand US dollars daily from his assets. If there’s a Gold Coin burst, it’s at least tens of thousands of dollars.

He’s moved beyond the grassroots laborer class, growing into a thriving individual merchant.

But to earn more money, one must still strive onwards, dreaming of the day when one can earn millions in a single day, likewise tax-free, with protection by force, and power at one’s service. Only then would one be a qualified capitalist.

Over the next while, Jimmy continued showing the General Sect Leader and Jason around, visiting the repair workshop and shopping around the nearby mall. Half an hour later, Shadi and Jimmy also received a notification message.

"The trade is done; I think it’s time we left," Shadi said to Jimmy, shaking his hand. "Regardless, I have to thank you for your help."

"I did it because of my friend; a friend of a friend is a friend. Get in the car, I’ll take you guys to the suburban airport," Jimmy replied generously. Texans are probably all like this.

Taking the group to the car, Jimmy started the vehicle and left Austin’s downtown area, escorting everyone back to the airport.

It wasn’t long before they reached the suburban airport, and after getting out of the car, Jimmy didn’t forget to remind the General Sect Leader, "Buddy, don’t forget what you promised me. I really need a few bullet-proof vests."

It’s clear you’re pretty wild about getting things done around here; you’ve offended those Black people today, and you never know when they might seek revenge.

To prevent his business partner from being taken out prematurely, Allen Zhang also pulled out his phone, crafted a link to the website’s page, and sent it to him, "You can contact my shop through this link; remember to have someone package your personal information discreetly. You still have to go through the process. For this, I recommend you find Blitz for help. Right now, I can only get you three sets of security gear because I don’t have more stock. Seeing as we’re all friends, I’ll give you a deal—3000 US dollars at cost for one set!"

Bullet-proof vests cost only a few hundred dollars; what’s pricey are the bullet-proof ceramic plates, which are hard for ordinary folks to get. Walking around the streets clad in these without a CCW permit is also illegal, and local cops coming sniffing around.

If you’re a Black person, wearing that ’turtle shell’ without a permit, well, you’re in deep trouble, instantly pegged as a robber! Just get shot up like a sieve.

Allen Zhang pondered for a bit, planning to leverage the guise of legitimate trade to flip that equipment, selling it to locals. After arriving at the destination, he’d remove all labels and serial numbers; no traces of the gear, expanding his business bit by bit.

It would be better to open a branch here, but conditions aren’t permitting for now. Can only transport goods, can’t set up a base.

Soon, Jimmy’s men came driving back with the Razer Biker Gang folks. After exchanging a few words and seeing that the affair was over, Jimmy didn’t want to waste their time, greeted them, and took his people off.

Boarding the private jet, it would take at least two hours to reach the Los Angeles suburban airport.

Allen Zhang pulled out his phone and checked in with Sieg, asking how things were going.

Sieg: I’ve already recruited a few people. Hearing that they would be working with Juan Jin, they’re willing to serve you. I had Bailey take them to wash up at the Green Word Shelter and pick up some newbie gear.

Sieg: Guess what? I bumped into a ground force captain on the street. He used to be a devilish instructor at the California military academy! He has a loud reputation, called the Mad Captain! The type who works ruthlessly in the army! It’s said that he got into trouble with someone, was forced to retire and become an instructor, then got involved in an inappropriate relationship with a student, got exposed, lost his job, his wife ran off, his face was lost, and he was forced to wander the streets.
