My girlfriend is from 1949

With permission, Lu Tong went to Li Hao's military surplus store alone.

It was just preliminary investigation to get a sense of the situation, not a formal investigation, so no other colleagues were called in.

Based on the information we have now, the owner of this military surplus store is indeed the best entry point.

To the average person, every business transaction appears to be normal.

But for law enforcement agencies, it's as transparent as a secret.

If you don't keep a close eye on it, you might not discover the shady practices in the operation.

After all, the market is too big, and there is simply no energy or ability to examine every single account under a magnifying glass.

As long as the documents appear legal and compliant, that's fine.

Otherwise, if every single transaction had to be linked together for review, the workload would be too great to handle.

Lu Tong also noticed the anomaly by chance and spent several more days collecting data.

Only from the summary did we discover the hidden problem.

This was just one problematic case, yet it took several days to resolve and involved the enforcement powers of multiple departments.

It's simply impossible to audit every single transaction in the country in this way.

Otherwise, there wouldn't be cases of tax evasion amounting to tens or even hundreds of millions of yuan.

This is why many people try to exploit loopholes, but when the loopholes are exposed, it creates a huge pitfall.

Li Hao thought he was being very careful, and he was indeed very careful, so much so that even the relevant departments didn't notice anything amiss.

It was just bad luck that they were discovered by accident.

This became a breakthrough point with substantial evidence that could be investigated.

Lu Tong was wearing a tight-fitting T-shirt, a camouflage jacket, and cargo pants, paired with a pair of non-slip Martin boots, looking every bit the military enthusiast.

"Ding-dong~ Welcome!"

As soon as you enter the store, the welcoming wooden puppet hanging on the wall makes a crisp sound.

It also serves as a reminder to the boss that guests have arrived.

Li Hao sat behind the cashier, holding a Qing Dynasty snuff bottle in his hand, looking at it with great interest.

This snuff bottle was bought for 15 yuan last night at a small auction held at Feng Chaoyang's antique shop.

Since we started collaborating to sell bulletproof vests and night vision devices, we've made quite a bit of money recently.

Even the quality of antiques they buy has improved considerably.

In the past, I would never spend more than 100,000 yuan on antiques.

Although they are not exactly wealthy now, they have made quite a bit of money through illicit means.

A set of blueprints for an American F-86 fighter jet was exchanged for a Yuan Shikai silver dollar worth millions.

As a bonus, I also managed to get a copy of the original blueprints for the F-100 fighter jet.

The F-100 fighter jet is the latest generation of fighter jets developed by the United States in 1950.

Code name: Super Sabre.

1951年开始研製，1953年9月装备部队，各型F-100共生产2350多架。

It was the world's first practical jet fighter with supersonic level flight capability, developed by North American Aviation in the early 1950s.

If this set of blueprints had been taken to the Republic of China era, it could definitely have been exchanged for more advanced fighter jets and tanks from the Russians.

We can get away with it by claiming that the blueprints were obtained through secret channels by our agents within American Airlines.

The older brother wouldn't press for details, because doing so would be seen as spying on someone else, which is taboo!

Li Hao used the fighter jet blueprints to exchange for two Yuan Shikai silver dollars worth millions from Lin Huai'an!

This transaction made him even more proactive about such things.

Driven by the prospect of mutual benefit, he didn't even need to make any demands; he proactively considered the needs of his clients.

Since they were going to buy the blueprints for the most advanced American fighter jets of the 50s, they would also buy the blueprints for the Soviet Union!

Moreover, it's much easier to buy Soviet-era blueprints than American ones.

It's important to know that after the 1990s, there was nothing you couldn't buy in the Soviet Union if you had money.

Not only can they buy back advanced tanks like scrap metal, but they can also exchange canned goods, dog skins, and other supplies for large aircraft!

There are even rumors that they sell mushrooms!

It remains unknown who bought it.

Li Hao obtained two sets of blueprints through various channels.

One set is the MiG-15 high-subsonic jet fighter, which first flew in 1947.

The other set is an improved version of the first-generation jet fighter MiG-15.

It went into production in 1949 and became the main fighter jet of the Soviet Air Force by the end of 1950.

This was the mainstay fighter jet of the Soviet Union at the time, and it was one of the most advanced fighter jets that was difficult to buy even with money.

What they sold to us after that were only MiG-15s.

Chen Huai'an's real goal is the most advanced MiG-15bis!

Later, the Chinese People's Volunteer Army Air Force was also equipped with this advanced aircraft, which enabled it to compete with the American F-86.

Unfortunately, before this, the Chinese People's Volunteer Army suffered heavy losses and sacrificed too many soldiers because it lacked air superiority in the early stages.

But now that we have these blueprints, everything will change!

Li Hao also made a fortune of nearly ten million yuan by using these airplane and tank blueprints that were treated as antiques.

Therefore, even the level of antique purchases has been significantly upgraded.

Upon hearing the "Welcome" greeting, I immediately stood up.

Upon seeing that she was a young woman dressed for outdoor sports, his eyes lit up.

He greeted her with a beaming smile: "What would you like to buy, beautiful lady? I have all kinds of outdoor equipment here, and it's a gathering place for military enthusiasts! If you can imagine it, you can buy it!"

His voice was smug, with a hint of boasting.

However, this is just one of his promotional slogans.

If a customer actually says they don't have it, he can immediately order it or trick them into buying something similar.

This is a marketing tactic.

Lu Tong scanned the store and confirmed that it was just an ordinary military surplus store.

Even next to the business license, there was no special equipment sales qualification.

He glanced around and tentatively said, "I'd like to buy a military-grade Level 3 bulletproof vest."

"Uh..." Li Hao hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "No, we don't have that."

"That's a good option."

"I really don't have that!"

Li Hao shook his head vigorously, firmly indicating that he did not.

He even explained with a smile, "I don't have a license, so I'm not qualified to buy or sell."

Domestic "military surplus stores" are strictly prohibited from selling genuine military standard equipment.

Furthermore, soliciting and selling bulletproof equipment under the guise of "military supplies" or "military products" is suspected of being illegal.

Only qualified special equipment stores or compliant online channels are allowed to sell bulletproof vests that meet Level 3 of Standard A.

Li Hao's shop does not have a license, so he cannot sell his products openly.

Otherwise, you will be fined if you are caught!

Lu Tong remained calm, a faint smile appearing on her face.

Li Hao's reaction was exactly what I expected.

It was her first time here, so how could the owner possibly sell something that was prohibited from being sold to a new customer?

If every customer could easily buy a Level 3 bulletproof vest, he would probably have been fined into bankruptcy by the regulatory authorities long ago!

Lu Tong, with her hands behind her back, looked up and asked with a smile, "How come I heard you sell them here?"

Li Hao was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "Who told you that?"
