This order also included a lot of firearms and ammunition, even though some of these countries have strict gun control. But Hardy didn\'t care about that, it was a problem for the Brazilians to deal with. After all, the military\'s sales requirements did not prohibit selling weapons to these countries.

"Alright, I\'ll have the military start preparing the goods and send them directly to the docks," Hardy said.

Antonio Salamone was slightly excited when he heard Hardy agree. This big deal was about to commence, and he believed that once the goods were shipped over, there would be a significant profit.

Back in Los Angeles, Hardy met with Colonel Beach and handed him the order. "Prepare the supplies according to this catalog and send them to the port of San Francisco, where they will be loaded onto the ships."

Colonel Beach was thrilled when he saw the order list. "Mr. Hardy, you\'re incredible! You\'ve managed to sell another $75 million worth of goods."

"We haven\'t received the money yet, we\'ll only get paid once the goods are sold," Hardy replied.

"Haha, as long as they\'re sold, there\'s no need to worry about getting paid," Colonel Beach said with a smile.

"Beach, we need to track this shipment. Assign five staff members to each location to handle sales statistics and feedback. Until the goods are sold, they still belong to us," Hardy instructed.

"Understood, Mr. Hardy. I\'ll arrange the personnel," Beach replied.

Beach began preparing the supplies, continuously transporting goods to the port.

Unlike what is shown in movies, drug lords in reality actually avoid having conflicts with the U.S forces at all costs.

Hardy didn\'t really trust the Brazilian drug lords integrity to pay up their debts, but he believed in the deterrence of the most violent organization in the U.S the military, especially the current one with how many weapons it has massed from WW2.

The Los Angeles Shipping Company recently acquired 50 cargo ships and is urgently recruiting captains and seamen. Originally, these Liberty and Victory ships had corresponding captains and crews, but after the fleet was disbanded, these individuals all retired and returned home.

However, the military had records of these personnel. Hardy instructed his team to retrieve their files and contact them one by one via phone or telegram to see if they were willing to return to work, offering them high salaries as an incentive.

Although the United States is experiencing post war prosperity, finding a good job is still challenging. With military orders decreasing, many factories have laid off workers, and nearly ten million soldiers have been discharged, making it difficult to secure decent employment. After receiving calls from Hardy\'s company, many chose to return to work on the cargo ships.

After all, the pay was excellent.

Moreover, the job is much safer now. In the past, they had to constantly be on guard against being ambushed and sunk by German U-boats, but now it\'s just normal shipping operations, and the risk has decreased significantly. The wages are also two to three times higher than those of ordinary workers, naturally attracting a large number of people.

The first group was quickly assigned to the Los Angeles Shipping Company, and the captains and crews for the 50 ships were soon in place. These individuals had only been away from the ships for two or three years, so they were already skilled and familiar with the work.

Some even returned to the very ship they had previously served on, allowing them to start working immediately without needing any training.

Few weeks passed quickly.

During this period, Hardy was busy with the chain supermarket and logistics company projects.

These two companies had long been part of Hardy\'s plans, included in the company\'s three year strategy.

Recently, the Hardy Group issued recruitment advertisements and successfully recruited two presidents, who were then asked to form their teams.

The teams of these two companies conducted business surveys separately to provide Hardy with future construction plans and proposals.

The president of the chain supermarket is Sam Walton. Sam Walton, 33 years old this year, was running a supermarket at home before he joined the military. After serving for several years during World War II, he returned home to continue running his supermarket, which developed into a medium sized supermarket within a few years, giving him quite a bit of management experience.

Unfortunately, a fire last year turned his supermarket to ashes, leaving him with a considerable debt.

After the Hardy Group posted its recruitment notice for a president, Sam Walton applied. His philosophy aligned closely with Hardy\'s, he understood how to satisfy customers and was skilled in sales, so Hardy hired him as the president of the chain supermarket.

His salary was structured as an annual salary plus a bonus model, which Sam Walton was very satisfied with.

As for the logistics company, a former vice president of United Parcel Service, named David Hunter, was recruited. Hardy offered him the same annual salary plus bonus model.

Although there were already supermarkets in the U.S., there were no large scale chain supermarkets covering the entire country. Operating such a large scale supermarket is very challenging.

Building a supermarket is not difficult, but managing it is. A large supermarket may involve two or three thousand suppliers and possibly hundreds of thousands of products, which requires a strong management team.

Moreover, how to attract customers, what your advantages are extra.

Hardy\'s strategy was "high quality and low price." This isn\'t just slogans, it needs to be genuinely implemented. Only by being cheaper than others can you truly attract customers.

This makes it even more challenging.

Hardy\'s idea was to sign contracts with suppliers, with the supermarket not investing in the purchase of goods but rather acting as a consignment platform.
