1210: Chapter One Thousand One Hundred Ninety-Three: This Clothing Saves Lives After meeting Albert, it didn’t take long before they returned to the hotel just in time for dinner, followed by a pleasant evening.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next day, Gao Yang and his party didn’t leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had spent too much time at Federer’s house the day before and hadn’t finished exploring the gun show.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For Cui Bo, who planned to see if there were any latest products at the gun show, his purpose was not yet achieved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was another important matter, which was that Gao Yang and his group planned to check if there were any latest combat or combat-related living products at the gun show, like clothes, ready-made rations, and new functional outdoor equipment, etc.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, the gun show didn’t just display guns but also many hunting and shooting sports related products.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since high-end civilian products would not be massively adopted by the military due to cost reasons, it was necessary to keep an eye on the civilian market as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Besides attending the gun show, Gao Yang had one more agenda for the afternoon — he needed to start increasing his public exposure gradually.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Morgan advised Gao Yang to take advantage of his skills as a marksman by making more appearances in various gun-related associations, to enhance his presence, which would benefit his future endeavours significantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back when he took part in the three-gun competition organized by Allian Mossen Studio, many influential figures were present as witnesses, and Gao Yang joined more than a dozen associations in one go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, with the Los Angeles Gun Show opening, the Rifle Association, as well as the IPSC Association, would surely take this opportunity to recruit members.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, IPSC had a competition during the gun show, and Gao Yang planned to view the gun display in the morning and make an appearance at the IPSC competition in the afternoon.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing the competition, by evening, Gao Yang and his group were set to head for Colorado, where Gao wanted to meet a very important person to try and enhance his shooting abilities without any aiming devices.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The schedule was tightly packed, so they had to utilize their time efficiently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang and his crew arrived at the gun show early, with a clear purpose to start looking for items that could be of potential use to them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since their next trip was to Ukraine, Gao Yang and his team were making specific preparations for Ukraine, so for others it might be simpler, but Cui Bo needed a short-barreled large caliber sniper rifle, which could be conveniently used inside a car.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Going to Ukraine was different from other places; they were going to Ukraine for business, not to fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As businessmen, they couldn’t be fully armed, wearing combat gear, faces camouflaged, and look like soldiers during negotiations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After several rounds of searching, Gao Yang indeed found what he wanted—a booth with several people in suits energetically marketing their bulletproof business suit line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The advertising board placed on the booth was quite appealing, showing a fearless man dressed in a suit standing amidst flying bullets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The advertising slogan was also prominent, “Carson Custom-tailored, committed to providing bulletproof business suits for businessmen in danger zones.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang halted and asked Morgan, “Do you know this brand?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Morgan, also interested, replied, “Never heard of it, let’s go take a look.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang and his companions approached the corporate booth, and upon seeing them, especially Morgan in his suit, a salesman promptly came up, smiling at Morgan and said, “Sir, welcome to learn about our latest developed products.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Morgan pointed to the suit the salesman was wearing and asked in a deep voice, “Bulletproof?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“No, no, the one I am wearing is just an ordinary suit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sir, please come this way, this is our bulletproof suit.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After Morgan and Gao Yang were brought in front of a suit hanging on a rack, Morgan said solemnly, “Introduce your company and product.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Certainly, sir.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Carson Custom Clothing Company, hailing from Toronto, Canada, specializes in crafting high-end clothing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To provide stronger safety protection for successful businessmen working in dangerous countries and areas, we launched a high-end bulletproof suit series.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gentlemen, what you see in front of you is our bulletproof business suit series.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The salesman gently touched the hanging suit and said with a smile: “You can feel it, the suit is soft and comfortable, but its bulletproof capability is strong, it can completely block bullets from handguns of 9mm and even 11.43mm calibers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is made possible because the fabric used for the suit is ultra-light carbon nanotube material, which hardens to block bullets when struck by knives or bullets, thereby preventing injuries, and is much stronger than Kevlar.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing, the salesman smiled and said, “Of course, since there are no bulletproof plates, the bullet won’t penetrate the suit but impact is inevitable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, compared to getting injured or even killed, having just a bruise or even a fracture is acceptable, isn’t it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang nodded and asked, “Have you tested it?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The salesman laughed and said, “Of course, we have performed extensive testing, and you can watch our test videos or even conduct the test yourself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it does not meet our declared performance, we are willing to accept any consequences.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Morgan’s need for bulletproof suits was even stronger than Gao Yang’s.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After nodding in agreement, Morgan satisfactorily asked, “How much?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The salesman smiled and said, “Twenty thousand US dollars, and that’s just for the jacket alone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you need trousers, a full set costs thirty-eight thousand US dollars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Additionally, if you are going to a cold area, we have overcoats available which offer larger protection areas, and they’re much cheaper.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The exterior is cashmere fabric, the lining is removable aramid, and it only costs one thousand two hundred dollars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, if you need higher-end options, we also provide custom-tailoring services.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The salesman hadn’t finished introducing when he patted a single-shoulder briefcase hanging from his body, laughing as he said: “We also have bulletproof briefcases for eight hundred ninety-nine US dollars.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They can be quickly disassembled, turning into a bulletproof shield upon disassembly, and they can even be fitted with bulletproof plates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once equipped with the plates, they can easily withstand rifle bullets.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang nodded and said in a deep voice, “Not bad, not bad!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The salesman’s surprises were not over yet, as he pointed to several briefcases displayed to the side, laughing as he said: “Bulletproof briefcases with built-in bulletproof plates, just pick it up, and it becomes a bulletproof shield.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They can also be disassembled to provide an even larger bulletproof area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gentlemen, if you often need to go to dangerous areas, our company’s products are definitely suitable for you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang was genuinely interested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was certain that places like Ukraine were chaotic, and one might encounter flying bullets at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without wearing a bulletproof vest, one wouldn’t feel secure at heart, but wearing one, albeit bulky and often inappropriate in certain settings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a bulletproof suit, all those problems were gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, there were the briefcases and briefcases that looked quite normal on the outside; it was like they were tailor-made for his trip to Ukraine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Waving his hand, Gao Yang loudly said, “Let’s watch your test video, it would be even better to see a live test.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the protection is up to standard…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang didn’t finish his sentence, as he directly looked at Morgan and asked, “How many do you want?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Morgan thought for a moment, stretched out five fingers, and said in a deep voice, “I need five suits, one for my bodyguard too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I don’t need bulletproof briefcases and suitcases, because we already have similar products and they have good protective effects.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang nodded, then told the salesman, “Eight full suits, five briefcases, five suitcases, right now, if the results can satisfy me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The salesman was visibly thrilled, and for a simple reason—it was a big business deal.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After nodding his head in agreement, the salesman then immediately showed a troubled expression and said, “Our suits are high-end and need to be custom-tailored for you, so it’s not really possible to have them right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>You’ll have to place an order in advance to start production.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Also, our suits are hand-tailored, so the process can’t be very fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One suit takes about twenty days of work, and if you need eight suits, it would take at least half a year before you could have them all.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Morgan immediately waived his hand towards Gao Yang and said, “I’m not in a hurry, you guys go first.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang pondered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While in Ukraine, if there’s need to negotiate anything, he’d definitely have to be present.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then there’s Li Jinfang who must also have one.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he might not need to wear a suit, a regular bulletproof vest would suffice by his side, but it’s always good to be prepared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Gao Yang can fight now; in fact, he’s quite fierce, but definitely not as invincible in hand-to-hand combat as Li Jinfang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having Li Jinfang by his side, in case there was any need to physically intervene in disputes or conflicts, would make Gao Yang feel secure; thus, it was imperative that this top-tier fighter, Li Jinfang, be by his side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Satan would surely mobilize everyone to Ukraine, but they would mostly likely have most of their men armed and positioned outside, ready to act at any sign of trouble.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having three people to negotiate would be the limit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But except for Li Jinfang, deciding on who the second person to follow him should be, Gao Yang couldn’t make up his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This third person, Glolov, was a good choice, but since he’s a machine gunner expected to provide suppressing fire if needed, he couldn’t be moved lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So, someone proficient in close-combat and also formidable at close-range firepower would be necessary.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Number Thirteen would have been a good choice, but it was uncertain when Number Thirteen could be available.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thinking for a while, Gao Yang then told the salesman in a stern tone: “Do you have women’s bulletproof vests?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neutral styles are also acceptable, but it needs to be suitable for women to wear.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The salesman laughed lightly and said, “Yes!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>We are a custom tailoring company, after all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whatever style you need, we can make it, no problem at all.” (To be continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you like this work, you are welcome to vote for it on Qidian (qidian.com), support by your monthly votes, and read more on
