Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat - Chapter 306
Chapter 306 Garrison Major
Ms. Vaux spent a long time on the phone, and it took more than half an hour before she heard the sound of footsteps coming from the living room.
“Vox, I have an appointment with Staffan Capello.
Visit at his house tonight. “
Hearing what his wife said, Vaux was overjoyed.
Although asking his wife to come forward this time and seek help from his original rival in love would make him feel a little ashamed and embarrassed.
But it was his life-saving straw, so he couldn’t help but take it seriously.
“Really? Honey, thank you so much.”
Mrs Vaux showed a sweet smile on her face.
“What to say! We are family.
I’ll prepare presents first.
You have to freshen up and change into more formal clothes. “
Vox quickly got up and said:
“I’ll let them prepare presents, you go and wash up the children, we’ll change our clothes and set off.”
At this time, Vaux couldn’t care less about the embarrassment, wishing to see his former love rival now.
After hearing what Vaux said, Mrs. Vaux did not refuse, and directly greeted the two children who were still playing outside:
“Come here, kids, our family is visiting a friend tonight.”
The two children ran over happily after hearing this.
Vox laughed and walked out, and didn’t forget to rub the heads of the two children as he passed by.
Vox, who came to the courtyard gate, waved to the vehicles parked on the side of the road.
Before Vasek opened the door, Girard ran to Vocks in a dog-legged way.
Vox saw this, and showed Girard his first smile today.
“Go prepare a more expensive gift, I’m going to visit a friend.”
Girard saw the smile on Vaux’s face, and his heart moved. The boss is the boss, and he found a solution to the problem so quickly.
“Okay boss,
I’m going to prepare now. “
After speaking, he turned and ran towards a small bridge car on the side of the road, and soon the car drove away.
Vox nodded in satisfaction, turned and went home.
Several people in the car outside cursed and said:
“This guy is a real sycophant.”
That day and night, in a small Portuguese-style two-story building on Mahogany Avenue in Recife, the Vaux family was having dinner with the owner.
Everyone talked and laughed, and the children also had a great time.
The host saw that the time was almost up, so he said to Vaux:
“Vox, how about we talk in the study?”
After the preparation in the early stage and the introduction from my wife, everyone has become familiar with each other.
Vox also knew about it. The tall man in front of him, with a Chinese character face and two big beards, was Staffan Capello, a middle-aged man.
Served as a major staff officer in the Recife Garrison. As for what this staff officer does, Vox is not very clear.
But since he is a major officer, he must have certain rights.
“Of course Capello, it’s my pleasure.”
Women saw and knew that the man was going to talk about business, so they nodded with a smile.
Mrs. Vox took the initiative to get up and helped Mrs. Capello clean up the dining table. The two talked and laughed and exchanged their own parenting experience.
Staffan Capello is only a major officer, so the financial conditions of his family are obviously not particularly well off.
The study room at home is not big, just enough to fit a desk and two stools.
The two walked into the study with their respective coffees and smiled, and the host and guest took their seats.
Staffan Capello straight to the point:
“Vox, I heard your father-in-law talking to me on the phone.
You’re in some trouble right now and you might need my help, right? “
Vox realized at this time that it was not Staffan Capello whom his wife had contacted by herself.
It was through his father-in-law that he found the other party. He felt a little uncomfortable at first, but suddenly felt a lot more comfortable.
But thinking that he still wanted to alarm his father-in-law, he was also a little embarrassed.
But this matter is not a trivial matter. Such a big arms smuggling case will definitely reach the ears of my father-in-law sooner or later.
The Recife Police Department knew that the shipment belonged to him without any investigation.
He believed that the police would not dare to do anything to him, and even tried to find a way to wipe his ass.
After all, when he took over the business, he was recommended by the deputy chief of the police station.
Transferring the case to the Recife Police Department is equivalent to letting the Recife Police Department investigate themselves?
Now his first priority is not thinking about how to escape the police investigation, but how to meet the needs of the big shots.
As long as the big shots behind the scenes are satisfied, this investigation is a joke.
And if the big man is not satisfied, then this investigation will become a noose around his neck, which can kill him at any time.
This is why Vox didn’t want to run away after knowing that the ammunition was seized.
Instead, find a way to find new sources of goods and continue to complete the transaction.
Hearing Staffan Capello’s question, and looking at the environment of the other party’s home, Vaux felt that there should be a good chance of achieving his goal today.
“Yes, brother Capello, thank you for being willing to receive me when I encounter difficulties and come to my door.”
After hearing Vox’s words, Staffan Capello smiled noncommittally.
Picked up the coffee in his hand and took a sip before saying:
“We are friends, it is right to entertain you,
But whether it can help, I dare not say.
Don’t look at me as a major officer, but in fact, I’m just a regimental staff officer.
You have to understand that in the army, there is a saying: “A staff officer doesn’t have a commander, and he doesn’t fart!”
So, you should tell your story first, and let me help you refer to it.
See if I can help you. “
Vox has never been a soldier, so of course he has never heard of this sentence, but he can understand what the other party means.
But this is the only person who served in the army that he could come into contact with in his impression.
Regardless of whether the other party can help him or not, he has to give it a try.
With a humble smile on his face, Vaux considered how to speak properly.
After all, this is a crime. No matter how I speak, it seems that the other party will be dragged into the water.
So, after much deliberation, I decided to go straight to the topic.
Picked up the coffee in his hand, took a big sip, moistened his dry throat and said:
“I want to buy a batch of arms, I wonder if Brother Capello can help?”
Staffan Capello was very calm after hearing Vox’s words.
After all, he is not stupid. He was already thinking about this question the first time he knew Vox’s identity. What could happen if a gangster suddenly found himself, a soldier, for help?
But he still agreed to meet with Vaux, which shows that the two have a certain basis for cooperation.
Corruption in the Brazilian army is commonplace, let alone a local garrison like them, with a weak armament.
Soldiers can have running training once a week, which is considered high-intensity training.
When accepting the inspection by the chief, if you can stand in line, you will be considered qualified.
As a major officer, if he wants to survive in the army, he has to work up and down.
And he is not an officer leading troops, so he cannot receive the respect of his soldiers.
You can only receive some benefits when you usually go to check somewhere.
But this benefit, not to mention asking him to bribe his superiors, give him a promotion and a salary increase, is not enough to support his family.
Now that he has the opportunity to earn extra money, he doesn’t want to give up easily.
Hearing the other party’s request, he was noncommittal.
Picked up a pack of cigarettes from the table, took out one, handed one to Vaux, put it under his nose and smelled it before saying:
“How much do you want?”
Vox, who was in a rough mood, was relieved when he heard Staffan Capello’s answer.
My whole body trembled with excitement.
Didn’t refuse, but asked him how much he wanted, wouldn’t that be enough?
He didn’t talk nonsense, he directly took out the list from his pocket, put it on the desk, turned around, and pushed it in front of Staffan Capello.
Staffan Capello did not reach out to pick it up, but picked up the match beside him and lit the cigarette in his hand.
He casually threw the match in his hand to Vaux.
Vox took it with both hands, pulled out a match and lit it for himself.
Seeing Staffan Capello on the opposite side put a cigarette in his mouth, after taking a puff, he picked up the list on the table.
Just glanced at it, and the cigarette in his mouth fell on his pants.
Staffan Capello, who was burned, got up quickly and shook the cigarettes on the ground, regardless of the cigarettes on the ground.
Looked at Vaux dumbfounded and said:
“Are you crazy? Do you want to rebel?”
Vox heard Staffan Capello’s question and watched him frightened by his own list.
Suddenly felt that the other party was a little military officer with little experience!
It was worse than when I saw this business.
There was a sense of superiority for no reason.
Coughed twice, and said with a smile:
“Haha. Brother Capello, don’t be nervous.
What rebellion? This is business understand?
It’s just a business.
What you should focus on is not the quantity of arms, but the amount.
Understand? “
Staffan Capello heard Vox’s words, and said very annoyed:
“Is this a normal business? This is arms.
There is enough equipment for a reinforced battalion here. With such a reinforced battalion, they can attack Recife.
do you understand? “
Vox saw that Staffan Capello was really scared, shrugged helplessly, stood beside him, patted his shoulder, motioned him to be calm, and said softly:
“Don’t worry, I didn’t sell these arms to Recife.”
Hearing Vox’s answer, Staffan Capello became a little calmer.
Ke still asked vigilantly:
“Who would want such a large batch of arms.”
Vox squinted at Staffan Capello, showing a little disdain. I didn’t see you so nervous when I just heard myself say it was an arms deal.
Now after seeing the number, it reacts like a cat whose tail has been stepped on.
Isn’t this wanting to be both?
If he didn’t need the other person now, he would have already spit old phlegm on his face.
After thinking about it, Vaux shook his head and said:
“Brother Capello, we are businessmen, and we never care who the customers who buy the goods are.
All I care about is whether he can afford the money.
Besides, I think your worries are unnecessary.
You think the quantity of this batch of munitions is large, that’s just your opinion.
Don’t you know that the guns in the hands of the citizens of Recife alone,
Is the sum of them far greater than the number of your garrison regiment?
Why don’t you ask who sold these guys? “
Staffan Capello was a little speechless for a moment when Vox said it.
After a long while, he said:
“But there are also machine guns and grenades in here.
These things should not appear in the folk. “
Vox looked at the shy Staffan Capello, and felt that the guy he had found was obviously not a suitable business partner.
Continuing to tangle with him on such meaningless topics is simply a waste of time.
Simply put your mind to one side, and said directly:
“Dude, no, you can’t afford such a large amount of ammunition!”
