097, wily and calculating
When he came to the bar and sat down, Bai Shujie didn't talk nonsense, but went straight to the point: "Dear Mr. Tom, my time is limited, and now I want to know how far our business is progressing?"
"Dear Mr. Bai, I know you are very anxious. What I can tell you now is that the two ten-watt units, two thirty-watt units, and one hundred-watt unit that you want for both battery and hand crank have arrived. Now you can
Take a good nap in my warehouse. Of course, the 10x scope has also arrived. After all, these are small things and you can take them away at any time."
Hearing that the radio station had really arrived, Bai Shujie was half relieved. He took a sip of red wine and then said: "How is the ZB-26 light machine gun?"
"I received a telegram three days ago and I have arrived at Chita Railway Station. According to time calculation, I should have arrived in Manzhouli today, dear Mr. Bai." Tom said with a smile: "An optimistic estimate is that in seven days, one hundred ZB-26s
It will appear in front of you, and of course, there will be two million rounds of ammunition, spare barrels, etc."
Bai Shujie chuckled: "I know that Mr. Tom is a natural businessman. Come, let's drink to our future cooperation."
"No, no, no, dear Mr. Bai!" Tom suddenly put down his wine glass: "You just said about the next cooperation, buying cakes, did I hear you wrong?"
"Dear Mr. Tom, your hearing is so good!" Bai Shujie said with a smile: "This cooperation is just a wonderful beginning. I think after drinking this drink, we should talk about the next cooperation.
Yes, you heard it right, Iām talking about the second cooperation.ā
Having said this, Bai Shujie slapped the two silver notes on the table: "Mr. Tom, please look at it. It's the same as last time. It's 3.68 million yuan. After deducting the balance of 1.04 million yuan from one cooperation, we can talk about the remaining balance."
A business worth RMB 2.64 million."
As an international arms dealer, Tom was very jealous of the two silver notes on the table, but his intuition told him that it was not simple. However, he could not find any clues, because the content of Bai Shujie's ability to do business with him was nothing more than
It's almost like arms smuggling.
On the other hand, as the global economy shrinks, orders from European manufacturers are decreasing day by day, and the arms price war has broken out. If you can make another profit at the price of the first batch of orders, you will make a fortune.
Not only can it make up for the losses in the previous two years, but you can also earn a large pension.
"Dear Mr. Bai, you know, I can only do arms business." Tom first limited the scope of the business, and then said: "If it goes beyond this scope, dear Mr. Bai, I may not have the ability to provide supply.
"
"Dear Mr. Tom, like you, I have no other interests except arms." Bai Shujie smiled and nodded: "I need a ZB-26 production line and a bullet production line. Dear Mr. Tom, what do you think?
What about this suggestion of mine?ā
"Oh, you're buying cakes!" Tom punched his head with both fists: "Dear Mr. Bai, don't you know, the Czechs are so stubborn that they don't transfer their drawings, let alone their production lines.
!No, no, no, dear Mr. Bai, your suggestion is not very good."
"Hahaha, Mr. Tom, please don't tell me that the factories of European powers are still operating at full capacity!" Bai Shujie said with a sneer: "According to the information I have, the current operating rate in Europe has dropped by four points.
One, many factories are on the verge of collapse."
"If you have this order, you are their savior! Of course, in order to enhance your confidence and for you to be able to lobby those hateful capitalists and let them open their disgusting mouths and say what you want to hear, of course I
I need to think about it for you. Shi Liancheng, bring it in!"
Shi Liancheng quickly came to the room, put a small sandalwood box on the table, then turned and left.
Bai Shujie took a sip of wine and clicked on the small box with his left hand: "Dear Mr. Tom, please open it and take a look. Isn't this enough for you to pry open the mouths of those hateful capitalists?"
When Tom opened the box and took a look, he was stunned.
Bai Shujie seemed to be unconcerned and said: "How about it, dear Mr. Tom, these one hundred and twenty gold bars should be more powerful than ten ZB-26s, right?"
Tom couldn't believe it: "If I understand correctly, dear Mr. Bai, do you want me to take away these things that can make people want to commit crimes now?"
"Why not, dear Mr. Tom." Bai Shujie nodded and said, "We are already friends, aren't we? I have never been defensive about my friends because I believe in Mr. Tom's charisma!"
"Okay, okay, I admit, dear Mr. Bai, I have been completely defeated by your generosity and generosity!" Tom sat on the chair with a dejected expression, staring at the gold bar with his eyes.
"Of course, if Mr. Tom is interested, we can also talk about the Russians." Bai Shujie leaned back in his chair and said, "I heard that the Russians recently mass-produced a machine gun called the Deggarev light
Machine guns. If there are any, I want them all, and I can settle them all in gold bars."
"Oh, cake buyers! Russians, dear Mr. Bai, are you talking about Russians?" Tom shook his head fiercely: "That's a Red Empire, it's too scary, this kind of business can't be done.
."
Bai Shujie smiled slightly: "Don't be discouraged, dear Mr. Tom. As far as I know, the Russians have established collective farms in the past two years, and thousands of peasants have rebelled everywhere. There is a saying in China: Nothing is difficult in the world, only those who are willing to do so.
You didn't do it, so why did you say no? Russians also need to eat, right? Of course, this matter can be done slowly, how about two years?"
After Bai Shujie's constant temptation, Tom finally boarded Bai Shujie's pirate ship. As the saying goes, as long as there are three times the profit, it is enough to make people crazy. What's more, the price Bai Shujie gave is more than three times the profit.
The two sides finally agreed that the batch of arms would be unloaded at Fengtian Huanggutun Station seven days later. Bai Shujie originally determined the place and planned to put it at Baiyunding. But now he knows about the ancient tomb secret camp, which is very close to Huanggutun.
Transshipment is also very convenient.
When the three-trailer truck arrived at the Jixiang Inn opposite the hospital, Bai Shujie's expression finally turned serious: "From now on, the special class will be divided into two classes to closely guard the entire inn. No one can approach this batch of goods without my approval.
.If someone approaches forcibly, they can be killed immediately."
When Yang Guihua heard such a strict order, he suddenly became nervous: "Captain, have you discovered anything suspicious?"
"Yes, this batch of goods and the next batch of arms should have been targeted by the little devils!" Bai Shujie came to the back courtyard. After the special team put five sets of radio stations in the innermost room, he said softly: "All the way
There are little spies following him. If my estimate is correct, it should be the ronin from Takeshita Dojo."
"Oh, that's it." Yang Guihua was not worried about this matter. Instead, she asked about another thing: "Captain, were you too generous and gave away too much profit when you negotiated the deal with Tom today?
"
Bai Shujie smiled and said: "I have already considered this issue. If my judgment is good, Tom can barely keep his capital this time. If he can seize the time and get the goods before March next year, he can still make a small profit."
It turned out that after Bai Shujie saw Tom, he suddenly remembered the Great Depression next year, that is, in 2019. The U.S. Congress will begin to discuss a "Silver Acquisition Act." Under its influence, the domestic ocean will gradually depreciate, eventually reaching 40%
Around. If millions of oceans are not spent as soon as possible, once the devaluation begins, it will be difficult to use oceans for international settlement in the future.
Therefore, Bai Shujie was very generous this time and used a one-time payment to finalize the next contract. In order to thank Bai Shujie for his trust, Tom actually gave him nine 60-mm mortars in stock, along with 10 rounds.
Cannonballs.
This was originally a sample that Tom wanted to trade with the Northeastern Army. Unexpectedly, the Fengtian Ordnance Factory had begun to imitate the Little Japanese 81 mortar, so the deal was not completed. These nine mortars have been placed in Tom's warehouse.
After working for three years, Bai Shujie finally got a bargain.
The 60 mortar can be operated by 3 soldiers. It is light and compact, and can quickly move positions and follow the rhythm of infantry attacks. The 60 mortar has a range of 1500m, weighs 19kg, and has a rate of fire of 15~ points. Each mortar squad
There are 6 marines. The squad leader carries the scope, the gunner carries the gun body, the assistant gunner carries the tripod, and the remaining 3 are ammunition handlers. A 60 mortar shell weighs approximately 1.5kg.
As for the Deggarev-type light machine gun mentioned by Bai Shujie, the Soviet Red Army only started to equip it this year. Caliber: 7.62 mm; ammunition: 7.62x54mm rifle ammunition; magazine capacity: 47 rounds; total length: 1'0 mm; barrel
Length: 605 mm; weight: 11.9 kg; rate of fire: 600 rounds per minute; muzzle velocity: 840 meters per second; effective range: 800 meters. 47 rounds of live ammunition in a disc of 2.8kg, 47 rounds of empty ammunition in a disc of 1.59kg.
Bai Shujie has the Deggarev-type machine gun. He can get better ones, but it doesn't matter if he can't get them. As for the Czech-style ZB-26 production line he wants, he may not necessarily be able to use it himself. Even if he wants to use it, it's not
Now, building an arsenal is not an easy task. Of course, he still doesn't know what will happen in the end. However, it is not a bad thing to be able to get something on hand during the Great Depression.
Now that everything has been obtained, Bai Shujie is troubled by how to transport it out under the eyes of the little devil. The Northeast Army is about to change its flag, and there is no need to worry about local security at the moment. The little devil is very active now. According to the instructions sent by the little devil to follow
Judging from the situation, if you don't do it well, you will be robbed by the little devils.
In the end, Bai Shujie had no choice but to find Yang Guihua, hoping that she could provide him with some help.
Chapter completed!
