Next, Ye Xuan left the casino with the eleven million dollars he had won. He asked Hill, who had won seven to eight hundred thousand dollars, to leave with him. Then, he went to the Great Era Hotel and booked a presidential suite. Top a little bit, said the little dove,
He was worried that the people of the Great Era Casino would retaliate. First, the gambling was conducted in front of many gamblers, especially the VIPs of the casino. If those people were really not afraid of the casino closing, not only would they not retaliate, but they would also send people to protect him. Second, with his current strength, if he really retaliated, it would be hard to say who would suffer.
Ye Xuan stayed in the hotel and waited for the news. However, after waiting for a day, no one came with the nautical map. Ye Xuan did not want to wait in the hotel. He felt that before he found the nautical map, he had to find something to do, such as renting a large ship that could go to sea, or buying some necessary weapons. Skeleton Island was not a modern city. Not only were there all kinds of prehistoric beasts, but there were also dinosaurs that once ruled the earth hundreds of millions of years ago. Also, there was a terrifying King Kong that could beat Tyrannosaurus Rex, which was once at the top of the earth's food chain.
Ye Xuan felt that with his current strength, even if he were to fight against King Kong or Tyrannosaurus Rex bare-handed, he would still be able to protect himself even if he could not defeat them. However, Ye Xuan did not think that the system would allow him to travel to Skeleton Island. It would definitely find something for him to do. So, he had to make some preparations first, such as buying some equipment or something.
Last time, in the movie "Resident Evil," although he took some guns, because the gun shop was small, it was destined that there were not many bullets in the shop. He only found a few pistols, submachine guns, and the like. The rocket launchers that he found were all used up in the movie. Only a Barrett was slightly more powerful, but unfortunately, it only had less than 20 bullets left. There were also five armor-piercing bullets. Now, there were dozens of all kinds of guns, but the problem was that there were not many bullets left. Without bullets, a gun was no different from a fire stick.
In modern society, because he didn't want to attract other people's attention, Ye Xuan didn't contact those arms dealers. But in the movie, it was different. Anyway, he wouldn't stay here for long. Not to mention coming into contact with arms dealers, he would even dare to rob them if necessary.
However, there was no need for that now. After all, the US government was the biggest arms dealer at this time, especially in this economic depression. As long as there were US dollars, even if you asked them to steal Roosevelt's wife and sell it, they would agree.
During World War I, the United States sold arms to the two major military groups as a neutral country and made a lot of money from the war. Although World War I had long ended, the reputation of the United States as an arms dealer had long spread throughout the world. In a city like New York, gun shops were everywhere.
Ye Xuan first left the Grand Era Hotel and strolled around. He found that there were three to five gun shops on this street. And the scale was not small.
However, Ye Xuan was not in a hurry to enter the gun shop after seeing it. Instead, he observed a few more streets and finally saw a large firearms supermarket. This firearms supermarket was made up of three storefronts and had an area of more than five hundred square feet. It was like an arsenal. There were revolvers and Mauser rifles, semi-automatic rifles, automatic rifles, submachine guns, and grenades. There were heavy firearms such as heavy machine guns and howitzers. There were even fighter jets and tanks displayed in the store. It was high-end and domineering.
Ye Xuan went in for an hour, and when he came out, he had a list in his hand. If an ordinary person saw the items on the list, they would definitely be shocked, because the list was filled with firearms from top to bottom. There was the Colt M1911A1 handgun, the Browning automatic rifle, the M1918 automatic rifle, the Thompson M1928 submachine gun, the MP38 submachine gun, the Cheetah M1 sniper rifle, the M2 Browning large-caliber heavy machine gun, the Maxim 08/15 heavy machine gun, the Browning M1917 heavy machine gun, the 785 mm light mortar, the MK2 pineapple grenade, and so on. Judging from the number of firearms and bullets on the list, it was enough to equip more than half a battalion.
Of course, these guns were not cheap either. They cost him almost ten million dollars. However, Ye Xuan did not care about the money. After all, the money would be useless to him once he left this world. Besides, with his current ability, ten million dollars was nothing more than a trip to the casino. Ye Xuan did not care about the money at all. As for firearms, it was hard to say. There were many movie worlds that could use them, but guns could not be bought everywhere. So it was good to buy more as a precaution.
Due to the large quantity of firearms in this order, Ye Xuan left the gun shop after paying a small deposit and agreeing on the delivery time of the next day with the owner of the gun shop. Then he went to the street to look for a rental room in the warehouse where he would trade the firearms the next day. Otherwise, if he lost those things in front of people, he was afraid that it would cause unnecessary commotion. As for the matter of renting a storefront, in this economic depression, the streets were full of them. Ye Xuan quickly rented a store in a relatively remote location at a high price of ten USD a day.
After renting the warehouse for tomorrow's firearms transaction, Ye Xuan called a taxi on the street and asked the driver to drive to the nearest pier. He was going to rent a big ship first.
When he arrived at the New York East Pier, he saw tall steam ships docked on the water beside the pier. There were people coming and going on the pier, and it looked very prosperous.
Ye Xuan looked around as he walked. There were quite a number of ships by the pier. There were merchant ships that were fifty to sixty meters long, luxurious cruise ships that were twenty to thirty meters long, and some small cargo ships that traveled short distances. However, the ship that Ye Xuan wanted to rent was not just these. He wanted a medium-sized ocean-going ship with a tonnage of about 100 to 200 tons. It would be best if the captain had some experience. From the movies, one would not only pass through the fog to Skeleton Island, but they would also enter a low-lying reef area. If the ship was too small, it would not be able to go far. If the ship was too big, it would hit the reef when it reached Skeleton Island. Therefore, the choice of this ship could not be sloppy at all. Otherwise, if the ship had an accident in the sea, they would not be able to reach the sky or land. By then, they would really not be able to call for help.
After looking at the pier for nearly an hour, Ye Xuan still did not see the ship that he liked. He could not help but be a little disappointed. Suddenly, a person came to the opposite side. He seemed to be a sailor. Ye Xuan's mind flashed. He suddenly reached out and patted his head. Is there something wrong with my head recently? Such a simple thing is so complicated. Isn't this looking for trouble?
Who knows the matters at the pier the best? There was no need to ask. Of course, it was the sailor who made a living here. Even in the restaurant, the waiter was always the most well-informed. If he wanted to find a ship, he only needed to ask a sailor. He did not need to look here for a long time.
"Hello, sir! Sorry to bother you! " Seeing a young man wearing a small black cap and a sailor-like suit walking toward them, Ye Xuan suddenly extended his hand and said, "That's right.
When the young man saw Ye Xuan stopping him, he was startled for a moment. A vigilant look flashed across his face. He looked at Ye Xuan and said, "What's the matter?"
Seeing the vigilant look on the young man's face, Ye Xuan smiled slightly. He took out a ten dollar bill from his pocket and handed it over. "I want to ask if there are any ocean-going ships around here that are about 100 to 200 tons?"
Seeing the ten dollars that Ye Xuan handed over, the vigilant look on the young man's face immediately disappeared. He quickly took the money from Ye Xuan, then smiled and said, "Hey, sir, you asked the right person. The ship that I work on is the change you need. Is there anything you need?"
Ye Xuan did not expect that he would actually ask the right question. He smiled and said, "Yes, I need to rent such a ship to go out to sea. Is your ship free now?"
"Yes, yes, sir. Please come with me. I will take you to our captain. I promise that our ship is the best ship in the east pier. Our captain is the captain with the most experience in sailing in the east pier. "Hearing Ye Xuan's words, the young man immediately vigorously promoted the ship that he worked on.
"Hehe, okay, then I'll trouble you!" Ye Xuan smiled.
"No need, no need! By the way, sir, my name is Jimmy. May I ask your name is …? "Jimmy asked as he led the way.
"Jimmy, hello. My name is Ye Xuan, from Huaxia in the East!"
