Chapter 159

The overseas accounts that Long Country had obtained through proxies were immediately banned.

It was not until the aircraft carrier auction that Lin Yi finally verified official accounts for quite a few nations,

among which was Long Country's.

"Mr. Administrator, are you there?"

"The administrator is not available at the moment. If you wish to place an order, you may purchase directly according to your VIP level.

This platform is responsible for global free shipping services; no waiting is required, no patience is needed. Our motto is: there is nothing in this world that weapons cannot solve. If there truly is something they cannot solve, it simply means your weapon order is not large enough!"

"I am Wang Luchuan, the person in charge of Long Country's official 'Special Task Force Against the DWS Platform'?"

"The administrator is not available at the moment...."

It was all automated replies.

At this time, inside the Second Bureau of National Security in the Imperial Capital,

Wang Luchuan, the person in charge of Long Country's official 'Special Task Force Against the DWS Platform', was attempting to contact the administrator of the DWS platform.

After research over this period, while Wang Luchuan might not have been able to investigate other matters,

he did understand the working hours of this platform administrator.

Before seven o'clock in the evening, that fellow never came online.

These were basically all automated reply functions set by the platform.

However, upon seeing those automated reply messages,

no matter how many times Wang Luchuan read them, he felt that this platform truly lived up to its reputation as an arms dealer,

for even its automated replies were unique.

Besides that, looking at the platform's webpage, it was filled with red, featuring traditional Long Country Spring Festival elements such as red lanterns and the character 'Fu',

as well as Flash animations of exploding firecrackers.

If one ignored those purchase catalogs,

Wang Luchuan would really have thought this website was just another e-commerce site like Taobao or Jingdong.

But looking at the sub-categories on the platform,

there were pistols, machine guns, sniper rifles, assault rifles,

.... .. 0

mortars, rocket launchers, cannon guns, howitzers...

tanks, aircraft...

In addition, recently there had even been applications for agency franchises... and so on.

If you clicked on pistols,

the top of the website displayed selection tags for different countries such as the Ugly Country, John Bull, and Long Country.

At the same time, there were weapons from the 40s to 80s, weapons from the 90s...

price ranges, and so on.

Now, it could be said to have become increasingly standardized.

Sometimes, Wang Luchuan himself could not resist logging in with an overseas account to take a look.

After all, being a man, who doesn't like weapons?

However, the moment he thought that this platform was actually related to a group of people from Long Country,

he found it impossible to accept in his heart.

After all, according to Long Country's laws, even a gun used for shooting balloons in a park could be considered a real firearm,

punishable by imprisonment.

For a platform like DWS that dared to sell even aircraft carriers,

it was simply an act of great rebellion and treason.

Moreover, judging from the empty categories on the platform, Wang Luchuan guessed that it would not be long before

warships and radar systems would be listed on this platform.

However, thinking about the nation's current attitude toward this platform, he felt somewhat at a loss, unable to laugh or cry.

Around eight o'clock in the evening,

the administrator finally replied:

"Hey, Old Wang, what's the matter?"

"Old Wang!?"

Every time Wang Luchuan heard the DWS Platform address him this way, he felt flames of rage rise within him.

To think he was the Deputy Director of the Second Bureau of the Capital's Security Department.

Yet in the mouth of some unknown criminal, he had become merely "Old Wang."

If this were reality—

Uh! Of course, one couldn't say that; even in reality, as "Old Wang," he would be powerless to act against them.

After all, the DWS Platform behind them was an existence that even the nation regarded with immense apprehension.

It could bypass the defenses of countless other nations, obtain manufacturing blueprints for nearly every weapon,

and then replicate them exactly as they were.

With such capability, how could someone like "Old Wang" possibly deal with them casually?

Even if this group truly exposed some clue or trace,

and the nation discovered it, they would still be treated with fine wine and delicacies.

After all, compared to the development of the nation's military industry,

the fact that the DWS Platform sold weapons and caused chaos in the international community was not even worth mentioning.

Perhaps the nation would secretly award each of them a Hero's Medal.

"Four-Two-Zero," to commend these people for doing in the shadows what the nation wished to do but could not.

According to Wang Luchuan's estimation, if any discovery were made, this group would definitely be recruited,

transforming overnight into some secret research department.

Perhaps the administrator of this platform would even soar to great heights, holding a rank above his own.

By then, if they called him "Little Wang," would he dare not listen?

Of course, all of this presupposed that this group could be exposed.

Seeing the Director suffer humiliation, the team members struggled to suppress their laughter.

However, soon both parties moved on to discuss the main matter.

"Our nation wishes to place an order for American goods through the DWS Platform; is there any discount on the price?"

However, Lin Yi replied without a moment's thought:

"Apologies, the prices are clearly marked; we deceive neither child nor elder!"

"Doing business usually relies on small profits but quick turnover; what if our nation places a sufficiently large order with your side?"

Wang Luchuan had someone reply.

"How large?"

"Five billion US dollars!"

Wang Luchuan stated the amount the military had allocated to them.

Lin Yi had not expected Long Nation to suddenly order five billion dollars worth of goods; although this was no small order,

times were not what they used to be.

Just think, even tiny Syria had placed a massive military procurement order worth three billion dollars.

Could the nation not be a bit more generous?

Seeing the other party remain silent, Wang Luchuan continued:

"Well?"

In response, Lin Yi immediately forwarded the scale of Syria's order to Wang Luchuan.

"This is Syria's order...!"
