When Ouyang Yun proposed in Guangzhou to use the proceeds from Xuebingjun's various products to support the Pacific Fleet on the spot, almost no one took it seriously. Flying a huge ocean-going fleet with fifty or sixty ships would require logistical supplies.
The requirements are really too high. Not to mention anything else, the food consumption alone is an astronomical amount every month. Add to that the fuel consumption for training, ammunition loss and even the wear and tear of ships and fighter planes.
In Ouyang Yun's words: We will go bankrupt! The older generation of financial experts in the Xuebing Army, Jiang Shu, and the new generation of financial experts, John Niu, have considerable reasons for being so unfavorable about the on-site supply of the Pacific Fleet. In their hearts, they are far away.
India is synonymous with poverty. There are deserts everywhere, the people are illiterate, and the economy is extremely backward. How can we afford the high-end products of Xuebingjun?
Several aircraft manufacturing plants under the Xuebing Army are seizing the opportunity to produce empty fortresses during this period. In fact, they are preparing to transport supplies from the mainland.
Ouyang Yun actually didn't have much confidence in proposing local supplies at that time. As for food alone, because the Xuebing Army was not a British colonial government, it was impossible to use violence to directly rob local people. So, the breakthrough could only be with the British.
As for fuel supply, Ouyang Yun knew that the Pahlavi dynasty was in power in Iran, a major oil-producing country at this time, and Pahlavi II was determined to improve people's livelihood, so he was confident to use this as a breakthrough and adopt
Obtain fuel supplies through bartering.
When Xuebingjun was still in Renqiu, its pharmaceutical products had already enjoyed a certain popularity. After several years of development, it has become even more dominant in antibiotics, leaving Europe and the United States far behind.
Like medicine, electronic products, especially complete sets of television systems and multi-functional military electronic watches, have also become key products. It is no exaggeration to say that if there is no war in the world, the European and American powers will no longer be able to stop the Xuebing Army.
business expansion in these areas.
The profits of high-end products, at least for now, are ten times or even hundreds of times. The small gifts Ouyang Yun asked Pan Meiren to prepare carefully were not in vain. Lennon must have smelled something, so he tentatively discussed with Chen Shichang
Regarding the issue of agency rights, Lennon’s ruby was not given away in vain. The next day, he was invited to visit the Karachi military base and then had the honor of sharing lunch with Ouyang Yun.
It was not a sumptuous lunch, but what Lennon gained was enough to propel him and his family to London's first-tier wealthy families. Also receiving a big gift was Lu Hanni. British girls actually don't care about this. Once a woman falls in love,
In the swamp, we often lose our way. Fortunately, Lugeson, the representative of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company in Karachi, was a clear observer and could keep a clear head. As a result, the issue of Xuebingjun’s agency rights for various civilian products was divided by Ouyang Yun
Third, Lennon, his family, and Lu Hanni will each get one-third, and the remaining share will be temporarily controlled by Xue Bingjun alone. In order to avoid malicious competition between them, Lennon proposed to establish a three-holding trading company.
, with three directors, Xue Bingjun is responsible for supply channels and after-sales service, while the Darcy family behind the Lennon family and Lu Hanni is responsible for sales in different regions.
The establishment of three holding trading companies temporarily tied the Lennon family, the Darcy family and the Xuebing Army to the same carriage. Ouyang Yun then asked the two families to help solve the Pacific Fleet's supplies as partners.
The problem seems to be logical. In Ouyang Yun's words: This money is meant to be earned by others anyway, so it would be better to earn it for you two.
Now that the alliance has been formed, Ouyang Yun no longer conceals some secrets about the Karachi military base. Lennon and Lugeson learned that the Xuebing Army's permanent ground troops in Karachi would exceed 10,000 people, and they immediately realized what was hidden behind it.
huge business opportunities. When Ouyang Yun told the full staffing scale of the Pacific Fleet, they were completely shocked.
After the Seventh Expeditionary Corps is completed, the Second Marine Corps alone will reach 50,000 people, not counting the number of personnel on board the ship. Just the cost of eating, drinking and eating for so many people will be a huge amount every month.
Numbers. Take a longer view. Even if the tap is 10%, it will be a huge amount of money in one year. Considering that the lease period signed by the Xuebing Army and the British government is fifty years, then its
The profits would be unimaginable.
Ouyang Yun was originally worried that Lennon and Lugeson would not dare to take over the business because they had to consider the opinions of the British government and let the student army expand in Karachi and the Indian Ocean. Unexpectedly, in the minds of businessmen, money always comes first.
One person, so the matter was finalized in just three days, without him even using the chess piece Lu Hanni.
Lu Hanni is not very interested in the things discussed between men. However, as the little princess of the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company, her influence on certain matters is far greater than that of Rugerson. The infrastructure construction of the Karachi military base, and the training of soldiers
The plan set by the Military Headquarters will be carried out in two steps. The first step is mainly to lay down the framework, and the source of funds will rely on Gu Lianyun's business income in the United States. The second step will be funded by Guangzhou and completed in stages.
On this day, Ouyang Yun was lamenting in the office, "We are still too poor." It happened that Lu Hanni came to visit. When the British girl heard this sentence, she somehow became interested in the pile of letter paper filled with numbers in front of him.
He smiled and asked: "Are you short of money?"
I don't know when "Commander-in-Chief" became "you", and Ouyang Yun didn't care. He leaned on his seat, rubbed the back of his neck with both hands, and said in a thoughtful tone: "Preliminary investment
If it’s too big, the capital chain will be broken, so worry!”
"Need my help?"
"Huh?" Ouyang Yun suddenly became energetic and stared at the British girl with bright eyes.
There were two blushes on the cheeks of the British girl: "I have shares in the Anglo-Iranian Oil Company. Although it is not much, if it can be cashed out, it should be worth hundreds of millions of pounds. I don't know about this. Joey told me
.”
Joey is her brother, who is currently the Far East representative of Anglo-Iranian Oil Company and is responsible for the sales and development of Anglo-Iranian Oil Company in the Far East.
Ouyang Yun licked his lips and said out of nowhere: "Lu Hanni, you are so beautiful today."
"Really?" The British girl's face turned even redder, but she looked at him bravely, the emotion in her eyes fluctuating very obviously.
Only then did Ouyang Yun realize what he had just said, and he felt a little ashamed, thinking that he was really despicable, and said: "Of course it's true, hehe, if I didn't already have a fiancée, I wouldn't mind pursuing you.
.”
No matter how brave the British girl was, she couldn't help but feel ashamed after hearing such words. Her face was red all the way to her ears. She lowered her head and took a step closer to Ouyang Yun, whispering: "I, I know your country's
Tradition, I, I don’t mind!”
Karachi has a pleasant climate. Although it has entered winter, the temperature in the afternoon remains at around 20 degrees. I don’t know when British girls started to show off their skirts. It is undeniable that this kind of low-cut skirt is quite attractive to men.
The lethality, when Ouyang Yun saw the two pieces of snow exposed on her chest, he couldn't help but be dazzled. He stretched out his right hand very dishonestly, without any transition process, and directly grasped the towering piece: "I don't have any foreigners yet."
Girlfriend, if you really don't mind, then I'm very happy to gain your favor." As he said that, he stood up and put his lips to her.
