Chapter 254: PY Transaction Again
This time General Ross led the team personally.
Not only that, Luke also saw Rhodes coming.
He came with a squadron of the Air Force Special Reconnaissance Group, the 24th Special Operations Wing.
As soon as General Ross got off the plane, he saw Luke and the team members who looked like future warriors behind him waiting at the entrance of the mine.
Luke walked up to General Ross, shook hands with him, and led him into the mine.
There were two lost nuclear bombs on the off-road vehicle inside, but the outer shells had been removed.
Seeing the two nuclear bombs recovered, General Ross finally felt relieved.
Luke took out a cigar specializing in Undersea City from his arms and handed one to General Ross.
Then the two men lit their cigars, walked aside, and watched the air force soldiers who came with them begin to inspect the nuclear bomb.
Luke spoke first and explained the situation to General Ross:
"Captain Hill and Patrolman Terry are still alive, but I'm keeping these two safe."
General Ross was not surprised by Luke's request.
Looking at the equipment of Luke's men, General Ross pointed at them.
"Give me a platoon's worth of their equipment. I want a full set."
Luke looked at General Ross in surprise.
"Sure, $80 million per set, no bargaining."
"Fuck, are you robbing me?"
Luke spread his hands.
"This is an experimental model of my own company. There must be a reason why it's expensive. I'll give you a discount when it goes into mass production."
After hearing the price, General Ross immediately gave up the idea of taking advantage.
It's a small amount of money, and I can take advantage of Luke by using Hill's matter, but... this thing is too fucking expensive.
And Luke paid for it out of his own pocket. Come to think of it, the FBI would never pay for such an expensive item.
If too much procurement funds are involved, it will have to be approved by Congress.
With the character of those congressmen, it is probably hopeless...
"Well, what about the guns they have? They're not that expensive, are they? Can I have some?"
Luke shook his head.
"If you look at the gun alone, there is no essential improvement, and the price is still very expensive. This thing can only show its advantages when it is a set."
"All right……"
General Ross finally gave up the idea of taking advantage of Luke.
"Luke, come to my house when you have time. Betty (General Ross's daughter) has just graduated from college..."
Luke waved his hands hastily.
"When you have time, go to my grandfather's house for tea. Betty is not interested in anything other than studying."
General Ross is also an old friend of the Qin family.
It's just that Betty is a nerd and Luke was very active in school, so naturally they didn't get along well.
The relationship between the two of them is just a little better than that of ordinary friends, that's all.
"I'll have someone take care of Hill's matter right away. As for the park ranger, you figure it out yourself."
"OK. I'll let our business accept more veterans from you."
Then both of them smiled like foxes.
A PY transaction was thus concluded.
After inspection, the air force soldiers carried the nuclear bomb onto the helicopter.
General Ross also left with his men, taking Captain Hill with him.
But there was still a large group of people left to deal with the bodies.
Only then did Luke have time to chat with Rhodes.
"Why are you here too?"
"Such a big thing happened, how could I not come..."
"I remember you were developing new weapons, weren't you?"
"Part-time job, just part-time job..."
"When are you going on vacation?"
Rhodes said helplessly:
"After this incident, there will be no long vacation in the short term."
Luke patted Rhodes on the shoulder.
"Okay then, remember to tell me when you return to Los Angeles, and then we can have a party with Tony."
Rhodes smiled awkwardly and waved his hand.
"Forget it. Tony looks like he's been drained all day. I think he's powerless..."
Luke looked at Rhodes in surprise.
"Is this guy such a weakling?"
Rhodes shrugged.
"You know, people who use their brains are usually not in good health..."
Looking at Rhodes, Luke smiled and teased him.
"So, you're bragging about your intelligence?"
Rhodes thought about it and answered Luke.
"Yes, but what I want to say is that I am also in good health, and I have racial talent bonuses..."
Luke raised an eyebrow.
"what about me?"
"You are a pervert..."
"Fuck, I'll tell Tony when I get home that you said he's not good enough. I recorded what you just said."
"Fuck, our friendship is over..."
The team led by Rhodes still has to deal with several other scenes and wait for a professional team to recover the wreckage of the stealth bomber.
So Luke didn't wait for him and left all the food in the car to Rhodes.
This made Rhodes excited and he immediately said that he would treat everyone when he returned to Los Angeles...
Murdoch parked the Pelican on a flat surface. After the team members got on the plane, Luke did not get on.
"I'm going to take Terry with me to deal with her new identity. You guys go back first and let Erica and Cook stay with the girl for a few days until I go back and make arrangements."
Hobbs and Beckett nodded.
With these two reliable guys, Luke felt very relieved.
Then he smiled and said to Murdoch:
"You have a co-pilot, but I think his driving skills are better, so it's not certain who will be the co-pilot."
Murdoch was quite happy to hear the news.
But after listening to Luke's last words, he raised his eyebrows and said to Luke:
"Boss, I will let him know that the pilots of the Army are the strongest, because the Air Force was also separated from our Army."
This is true.
In the beginning, only the army had airplanes, which were then called the Army Air Force.
Later, the navy also had aircraft, and only later did the air force become more specialized.
The Air Force has the shortest history here.
But Luke wasn't worried about Hill's skills at all.
Anyone who can fly a stealth bomber in the Air Force must have excellent flying skills, at least he is among the best in the Air Force.
Can a plane worth more than 2 billion be easily flown by someone with average skills? Are you kidding me...
Luke is looking forward to the battle between Hill and Murdoch for the driver's position.
But Luke had other plans.
After watching the Pelican leave, Luke waved and asked Terry to sit in the co-pilot seat of the Roadblock.
As soon as I got on the bus, Roadblock made a surprised sound.
"Wow, boss, this is the first time you've had a woman in your passenger seat."
Terri looked at the center console in surprise, then at Luke.
“Hey, this car can talk by itself?”
Luke smiled and fastened his seatbelt.
"How refreshing! In-car AI, you can chat with it."
Terry asked Luke, looking confused.
"I heard on the news that today's artificial intelligence can only be called artificial intelligence. I didn't expect it to be so advanced."
Luke: …
Roadblock: ...
Roadblock: Can I eject her?
Luke: Don't even think about it...
Roadblock: "Okay, Miss Terry, please fasten your seat belts, we are about to set off, and you will soon find out whether I am mentally retarded or not. But I think I am much smarter than you."
Terry asked Roadblock in dissatisfaction.
"How are you smarter than me?"
"At least I know that if I want to be silenced, I must at least escape first..."
