Traveling through the sword to engage in military industry
#96 - It's reasonable for me to buy an RPG just to play with rocks, right?
"Mr. Saeed, as for the price, we can talk as long as it's reasonable. Just tell me how much a launcher costs, and how much is each rocket?" Ren Zhong said with a smile, having done some homework before coming.
The RPG-7 is already a widely available item, outdated now, but cheap and plentiful. It's still the main weapon in the hands of guerrillas and some underground organizations, so factories in different countries and regions are still supplying it in large quantities, especially next to Pakistan, where this thing is flying all over the place. Otherwise, where would Dala Town get its supply of these heavy weapons?
The international market price for an RPG-7 launcher is about 500 US dollars, but the rockets are not cheap, costing 100 US dollars each. Of course, there are discounts for large quantities.
"Old iron, since you've said so, then I'll find you a highly discounted price. They usually want a thousand dollars, but if I go get it, it'll be 800 dollars! As for the rockets, 150 dollars each. Old iron, how many do you want?" Saeed hesitated slightly before quoting his price.
It was indeed a bit expensive, but not doubled. As a middleman, Saeed was considered fair.
Ren Zhong nodded slightly, "Mr. Saeed, if I want a hundred rockets, can you make the price 100 dollars each?"
Saeed was shocked to hear this.
Saeed's eyes suddenly became deep.
"Holy crap!" Liang Xiaofeng blurted out.
He didn't expect Ren Zhong to not only buy rocket launchers but also a hundred rockets! Was he planning to open a small battlefield here? Did he need to go so big? Big brother, my heart is small and can't handle too much excitement.
Ren Zhong ignored the many thoughts that surged in Liang Xiaofeng's mind and just looked at Saeed quietly.
"Cash?" Saeed said after being silent for more than ten seconds.
"It can be cash," Ren Zhong did not deny.
"Then there's no problem. Old iron, this is a big deal. I'll have my friend deliver the goods tomorrow. Where should the goods be delivered?" Faced with such a big deal with more than two thousand dollars in profit, Saeed didn't care how the customer would handle it.
For him, selling, receiving money, and the matter was over.
Faced with Liang Xiaofeng's questions, Ren Zhong didn't explain. He was the boss, and even if Liang Xiaofeng had more questions, he didn't have to explain.
He had expected that Liang Xiaofeng and the others would eventually have questions. Many things disappeared silently after they came out of their hands and reached Ren Zhong's. No one knew where they disappeared to.
If it went on for too long, it would naturally not be hidden from the people around him, but Ren Zhong had no way. If this matter wasn't explained, the people around him would soon adapt.
He had thought about coming to a place like Dala Town alone, but operating a deal worth tens of thousands of dollars alone would easily get him killed.
The difficulty for two people was much higher, especially since he and Liang Xiaofeng were both Chinese who had come with visas. In Dala Town, they were considered somewhat influential tourists. If someone had a temporary intention to make money and kill them, and people like Saeed found someone to kidnap them, the entire town might suffer.
Saeed could earn more than 2,000 dollars safely, so there was no need to risk earning 10,000 dollars of black money. This was also why Ren Zhong chose a tour guide with a good reputation.
Saeed's Pakistani persona was worth much more than 10,000 dollars.
For Dala Town, Ren Zhong's deal was nothing. Ren Zhong completed the transaction with Saeed without any surprises. A pickup truck quietly carried 100 rockets at night, using soft cloth strips for simple explosive packaging, with five armor-piercing rounds in each strip. All of them were general-purpose PG-7VRs, weighing 4.5 kilograms each. This was the most common model in the hands of guerrillas in the neighboring mountainous country. Ren Zhong didn't say anything, so Saeed naturally bought the cheapest ones.
It was just that Saeed was not clear about what Ren Zhong and the others wanted to do, nor did he know how these things would be transported away, but the next day, Ren Zhong told Saeed to rent a jeep and drive to the mountains to play with rocks, and Saeed knew that he had underestimated the consumption power of these two Chinese youths.
That was no problem. Saeed was relieved. As long as these things were consumed locally, there would be no problem at all.
So Saeed happily took Ren Zhong to play in an unnamed wild mountain for a day, blasting more than a dozen rockets!
However, Ren Zhong didn't let Saeed accompany him after that, and drove out to find wild mountains to play with, and after playing for ten days, Ren Zhong and Liang Xiaofeng returned home.
They safely ended this exciting journey.
As for the rocket launcher and the remaining 80-plus rockets, as well as two pistols and the remaining hundreds of pistol bullets, they were all taken by Ren Zhong to the Bright Sword world. Before leaving, he told Saeed that they were lost in the mountains.
The two still left Dala Town with two simple backpacks. These two big spenders who bought RPGs to blast rocks left Saeed with a deep impression of being silly, rich, and generous.

This trip, for Ren Zhong, was not just about harvesting RPG rocket launchers and a batch of rockets.
It also made Ren Zhong understand that his choice of the Type 56 was not wrong. Compared to the AK-47, the Type 56 was indeed more suitable for the Eighth Route Army at this time. The accuracy of the AK beyond 100 meters was far worse than that of the Type 56, and even the continuous fire could not provide the same area damage effect as a machine gun during positional warfare.
As long as there was a greater advantage in close combat and trench warfare, Ren Zhong did not think that the base area could afford the huge ammunition consumption.
Even the ammunition consumption of the Type 56, once the number of troops equipped with the Type 56 increased, Li Yunlong would probably have a headache.
Ren Zhong chose an improved 30-round magazine capacity. For soldiers who frequently pulled the trigger, carrying six magazines in a battle might not be enough for his consumption. Li Yunlong could not afford to equip such a terrifying ammunition consumption ability on a large scale in a company.
According to Ren Zhong's estimate, after the Type 56 came out, about one assault squad in a company would be fully equipped with the Type 56, and then the squad leader of each squad would be equipped with it. A company would have 20-odd Type 56s, and when the MG3 was developed, a platoon would have one MG3. In this way, the disadvantage in firepower against a Japanese company with nine light machine guns would not be so great, and it could even be surpassed.
After all, the MG3's rate of fire could be used as a heavy machine gun, with an actual rate of fire of 250 rounds per minute. In contrast, the rate of fire of the Japanese light machine gun was unsatisfactory, barely reaching 120 rounds per minute.
With this touching rate of fire, two well-trained and quick Type 56 shooters could match the firepower output of one Japanese light machine gun!
As for the threat of grenade launchers, Ren Zhong's idea was to defeat magic with magic. The platoon level would still use the Japanese grenade launcher configuration with one, while the company level would prepare to equip two 60mm mortars. This 3+2 plan could well take into account both heavy firepower points and curved shooting damage compared to the Japanese company's nine grenade launchers, and could suppress the opponent's curved shooting firepower. If you add an RPG rocket launcher, it would be almost perfect in this era, covering everything for attacking solid fortifications!
