Reborn Russia As An Oligarch

   Chapter 327 Crazy Shopping

Anton patted his chest quickly and said, "Boss, your arrangement is very suitable, I have no opinion. To be honest, the company only has more than 200 people now, and I am already overwhelmed. That's great, and I'll be much more relaxed in the future."

   Judging from the expression on his speech, it should not be humility, but admiration for Androv from the bottom of his heart.

   And Androff also did his part, nodded and said, "Since the boss trusts me, then I will take up the burden. For Wagner's short-term, medium- and long-term development, do you have any ideas and plans, boss?"

   His question was obviously different from Shao Yigu's question at that time.

So Wang Ye replied: "In the short term, the company will be bigger first. The number of fighters will reach about 1,000. All kinds of necessary weapons and equipment will be supplemented. As for the medium and long-term development, to be honest, I don't know what to do now. I'm sure, we'll see how the situation develops, but we must do business abroad, and it can't be limited to Russia."

   The scale of a thousand people!

   This is definitely not a small amount, because this is still a pure combatant!

   If you add logistical support personnel, there will be 1,500 or more people properly.

   Security companies of this scale are rare in Russia.

Maybe the state-run security company can reach the number of people, but it will definitely not be able to match the future Wagner security company in terms of weapons and equipment. After all, the state-run security company really only does ordinary security work, and does not involve "mercenary" business ah... …

Androv was not surprised, just nodded slightly, and asked again: "Since the boss wants to make the company to this scale, he has to be mentally prepared, and the investment is quite large. After all, these are all fighters. It is very expensive to raise, and all kinds of equipment are not cheap."

  Wang Ye asked cheerfully: "How much does it cost to raise a team of this size a year? I have no idea about this, you can just report the amount directly."

Androv pondered for a moment and responded: "First of all, we need to purchase equipment, such as armored transport vehicles, helicopters and other large equipment, these things are very expensive. However, we do not need to equip too much heavy equipment in the early stage, and we will purchase ten helicopters first. , fifty armored transport vehicles are enough. With these things, we can become a fully mechanized force! The flexibility is greatly improved, and the combat capability is also guaranteed."

   Good guy, this is an armored vehicle helicopter, Wang Ye didn't dare to think about it before...

   But when he heard it, he was moved. If he could really buy these things, he would be willing even if it was a little more expensive!

   A team of 1,000 people, coupled with these equipment, as long as it is not "rebellion", he can walk sideways in the whole of Russia...

   Moreover, if such an armed force were to be sent to places like Africa, it would simply be able to "destroy the country".

   "How much does these equipment cost, it won't be too exaggerated!" Wang Ye asked.

Androv smiled and replied calmly: "These equipment, the helicopter can be purchased from the Mi-8 model, the one that has served in the active army for a period of time, and can still serve but needs to be replaced. One or two million dollars. As for armored transport vehicles, it is even cheaper, like a second-hand BTR-80 armored transport vehicle of three to four million dollars apiece. Equipped with weapons and ammunition, a total of five A million dollars."

  Anton's eyes lit up next to him, and he couldn't help explaining to Wang Ye.

   It turns out that the Mi-8 helicopter and the BTR-80 armored transport vehicle are famous and very practical.

The   Mi-8 helicopter is the most produced helicopter in the world. It is durable and versatile. It can transport up to 28 fully armed soldiers at one time!

   And the aircraft is equipped with a powerful firepower device. Rocket launchers are attached on both sides of the fuselage. Each launcher is equipped with 16 57mm rockets, a total of 128. A 12.7mm machine gun can also be installed on the nose, and a total of 192 rockets and 4 "Swat" infrared-guided anti-tank missiles can be added to the pylon!

   In addition, the one-way battery life can reach up to 1,200 kilometers!

   As for the BTR-80, this is the most commonly used armored transport vehicle in the Russian army. The 8X8 can cross various harsh terrains and can carry ten people on the vehicle!

  ………………

   Wang Ye took a deep breath. Sure enough, the armed forces are a "gold-swallowing beast" everywhere!

   This only counts helicopters and armored vehicles, or buy second-hand, it will cost 50 million US dollars!

  If it's brand new, wouldn't it cost two or three hundred million dollars...

   In addition to other light weapons and the like, the purchase of equipment alone will cost 60 to 70 million dollars!

   But well...

   This money still has to be spent!

He gritted his teeth and said: "I'll transfer a billion dollar knife directly in two days, you can just look at the purchase, buy the necessary and commonly used equipment first, and those that are not needed temporarily can be slowed down and purchased later. By the way, there should be a lot of personnel expenses. How much does it cost to support such a unit in a year?"

Androff clearly knew all this well, and without thinking, he replied: "I understand the salary and treatment standards of Wagner Company, it is good to keep it unchanged, it is not low. Calculated on the basis of a monthly salary of 1,500 US dollars per capita. , then the annual expenditure alone is about 40 million US dollars, plus daily expenses such as room and board, medical treatment, equipment maintenance, etc., one hundred million dollars a year. It should be enough. "

   Hearing this number, Wang Ye breathed a sigh of relief.

   That's not too much...

   100 million yuan for equipment purchases and 100 million yuan for personnel expenses per year, which I can still afford.

He said cheerfully: "No problem! Just follow this standard and leave it to you to recruit personnel. By the way, for base selection, my idea is to build the main base in Novosibirsk, and then Moscow. This base will continue to be used as a sub-base. There will also be a large base on the Crimei Peninsula, and the location should be close to Sevastopol, where it is close to the port, and it will be more convenient to dispatch things in the future.”

With a smile in his eyes, Androv looked at Wang Ye, nodded and said, "Boss, the position you chose is very good. If I choose it, it will definitely be there. By the way, do you want to build two more warships? , so that you will have your own ship in the future, and it will be convenient to move."

  Wang Ye was a little moved when he heard it. He hesitated and asked, "Will the warship...will be too expensive, is it necessary now?"

"It's okay, but this thing is not so easy to buy. I can find a way to see if I can get two boats from the Ukrainian country. After all, it is very cheap to buy boats there, and the large shipyards are there." Deloff responded.

   "That's fine! Just keep an eye on it. Since you want to become bigger and stronger, you still have to buy the equipment you need to buy!" Wang Ye said simply.
