This morning of the day.

The coolies have been recruited.

Wang Chen personally went to do some mobilization, what went to work abroad for three years, and after coming back, the family of a small rich man and the like, now the people who go abroad to work in the society think so, and his mobilization naturally greatly encouraged the 10,000 coolies.

Five yuan per month, just 10,000 people, Wang Chen has to spend 50,000 yuan every month, not counting other expenses such as food and accommodation, tools, etc., anyway, the cost is not less than 70,000 yuan per month.

The master has it.

The coolies were recruited.

Everything is ready, as long as the approval of the king of Bagan comes down, Wang Chen can take people to set off to Myanmar, and then a steady stream of jadeite will be mined, and his strength will be greatly increased.

Busy until lunchtime.

Wang Chen just took a breath and was about to get something to eat, not hungry, just habit.

But there is shocking bad news!

It was Wang Dalang who accompanied Wang Yuncang to Bagan to deliver 100,000 pieces of gold, silver and jewelry, he almost came back hanging on a horse, and his clothes were in tatters, almost not human.

Wang Dalang that Wang Chen saw at the door of the factory, "What's the matter?"

Wang Dalang sat on the ground unkempt, panting and said, "Dong...... Proprietor, Pu ...... Bagan King Back ...... Stab in the back. ”

"Bring water. Wang Chen shouted.

Xu Jiang, who was standing on the side, hurriedly ran in and poured a glass of warm boiled water out.

Wang Dalang grunted a big bowl of water and drank it, the whole person seemed to be a lot more energetic, and began to pour beans and said everything, "A few days ago, my father and I rushed to Bagan, offering 100,000 pieces of gold, silver and jewelry, originally thought that the king of Bagan would send the approval document back to Jinghai at home for 800 miles, but I never thought that the king of Bagan received the gold, silver and jewelry not only did not give the approval, but also let people loot the money and property of me and my father and others and drove out, fortunately, my father left a team of people in Dali, so I rode back to report the situation first. ”

What the?

Took the money and ransacked my people and drove them out?

Hearing this, Wang Chen's anger burst out of his heart all of a sudden, and his two fists were clenched to death, this Bagan King is really too much!

If you don't agree to mine jadeite, forget it, and cheat money?

Wang Chen wanted to rush to Bagan and hang the king of Bagan for a smoking, paralyzed, too much deception, but he was more concerned about Wang Yuncang's safety, after all, he was his first follower in the Northern Song Dynasty, and that feeling was different, "Your father has nothing to do with other people, right?"

Speaking of this, Wang Dalang's eyes turned red, he sighed, and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Wang Chen's eyes almost burst into anger, "Could it be that the king of Bagan still beat your father?"

Wang Dalang, a man in his twenties, cried out sadly when he said this, "Daddy fought for 100,000 yuan of gold, silver and jewelry, and the king of Bagan almost wanted to kill him, but fortunately I persuaded him, and finally he was beaten dozens of boards, he ...... He lay on the bed and couldn't move, and said...... And said I'm sorry for you. ”

Wang Chen took a deep breath, "King Bagan almost killed your father?"

"Hmm. Wang Dalang nodded vigorously.

Grass!

It's too much of a deception!

It's just too deceitful!

Wang Chen's lungs were about to explode, even if Zhao Kuangyin was secretly calculating himself, he had never been so angry, but today, hearing what the King of Bagan did, Wang Chen was really angry, he was so angry for the first time since he grew up, and he hated to eat the King of Bagan raw!

"You go down and rest first. Wang Chen's tone was very calm.

Wang Dalang said with a blank eye: "What about my father?"

Wang Chen said: "I will ask people to send money urgently for 800 miles, and find a skilled Langzhong in the local area to see a good doctor for him, it's okay if the money is lost, as long as you don't have to worry about your life, the rest ...... I will avenge you!"

Is it okay to lose the gold, silver and jewelry of 100,000 yuan?

As long as Wang Dalang has no worries about their lives?

Hearing this, Wang Dalang and Xu Jiang and others on the side were moved, in today's society, which owner would have such an attitude towards his subordinates?

Wang Chen didn't say anything more, turned around and entered the state office, and then asked someone to call Xiao Jianhua.

……

in the office.

Xiao Jianhua was called in, and he said with a surprised expression: "Lord, I am training the township soldiers to arrange the formation, is there anything important to call me here?"

Wang Chen told the news that Wang Dalang had brought back.

After listening, Xiao Jianhua frowned and was silent for a long time, and only after a long time did he say, "The King of Bagan acted too rudely. ”

Wang Chen was very angry in his heart, and knocked on the table, "What do you think we should do?"

"Under normal circumstances, Xiao thinks that we should slowly ......" Xiao Jianhua said half of his words, seeing Wang Chen's face, how clever he was, and immediately changed his words: "But we are not in a normal situation now, the king of Bagan deceives people too much, lord, as long as you get enough bullets, I am willing to personally take 10,000 villagers to level Bagan to vent your anger!"

Wang Chen said with cold eyes: "Didn't you say that the city is tall and it is difficult for bullets to shoot through, and it is not easy to attack the city?"

"It's not easy, but I read the ancient books that there are siege weapons, and it only takes ten days for me to make dozens of catapults overnight, and I want to blast away the major cities of Bagan. Xiao Jianhua swore solemnly: "And after my improvement, a catapult can have seven cannon tips and can rotate." ”

Well?

A spinning catapult? Isn't that a whirlwind cannon recorded in history?

It is said that the appearance of the whirlwind cannon was not until the middle of the Northern Song Dynasty, and now it is only in the early stages, Xiao Jianhua has been improved? Genius, worthy of the top genius in ancient times, this IQ, this knowledge, is simply invincible!

Wang Chen was silent for a moment, "The catapult is inconvenient to carry...... Forget it, let's do it, you have people make catapults, I'll go to the fairy world to see if I can get a siege weapon that is more powerful than a gun, if I can get it, then let's travel lightly, and directly bombard the Bagan city gate a few miles away, by the way, you look for a fine work to go to Bagan to investigate, understand the other party's military strength, and know that the other side can win a hundred battles. "That being said, he's actually trying to get a lot of guns and ammunition.

"The subordinates let people go and investigate. Xiao Jianhua agreed first, and then said: "Although I am in Tongzhou all day long, I have a little understanding of Bagan's military strength, it is said that the Bagan army has three major types of elephant soldiers, cavalry, and infantry, with a total number of about 40,000 to 50,000, known as 100,000 to the outside world, 800 elephants, and tens of thousands of horses, and the strength of the iron cavalry is very good." ”

Iron cavalry?

And elephant cavalry?

That's really good military strength.

If you are to face it head-on, it is really not easy to deal with guns and ammunition alone.

Not to mention anything else, the cavalry moves quickly, the formation is relatively scattered, and it is difficult to achieve a wide range of killings with guns alone, so at this time there must be weapons of mass destruction, such as mortars, shoulder-mounted bazookas, etc., of course, it is better if there are cannons.

As for mines, they have to be planted, and it's not a very good choice to get caught up in the game.

Like a heavy mortar, the caliber is more than 100 millimeters, and the maximum firing range can reach 8,000 meters, which is a bit wasteful.

Wang Chen felt that a light mortar would do.

Generally speaking, the caliber of light mortars is about 60 millimeters, it is easy to reload, the rate of fire can reach 30 rounds per minute, and the firing range is also good, about 3,500 meters, plus the effective killing radius is nearly 13 meters, and no cavalry can get close under the bombardment of mortars.

As for the shoulder-carrying bazooka, the range is shorter, only 300 to 500 meters, but it is easy to carry, and with a laser rangefinder, it can achieve 100 percent hit within 250 meters, and 80 percent hit within 400 meters.

As for catapults, it really doesn't matter if they don't catapult or not.

Unless you want to save some money, get more gas canisters for the catapult to throw in, and then fire a salvo of fiery arrows, or shoot a sniper rifle to detonate it.

In normal times, Wang Chen might choose such a way to "save money", but this time the king of Bagan completely angered him, and Wang Chen decided to let Bagan see what it means to be a heavenly soldier!

"Okay, I got it. Wang Chen said calmly: "In the past few days, you continue to let the villagers simulate shooting training, don't stop, and although the iron helmet is equipped, remember to add some soft leather to it, so as not to let the villagers wear iron helmets and hurt their heads." ”

"Understood. Xiao Jianhua said.

Wang Chen explained: "Prepare ten days' rations for the villagers, and when I come back from the fairy world, I will destroy Bagan within ten days!"

Xiao Jianhua was surprised and said, "Ten days to destroy a country?"

Wang Chen clenched his fists and said, "Yes, destroy the country in ten days!"

Xiao Jianhua gasped and asked, "We only have 10,000 villagers, is it too ...... to destroy Bagan in ten days?"

Wang Chen knew what he meant, in ancient times, a battle against a city might take several months to determine the winner or loser, and Bagan must have more than one city, if you want to completely attack it, ten days is enough.

That's because the ancients didn't see the power of modern thermal weapons!

Wang Chen waved his hand and said: "As long as I can get the immortal weapon, it is not a problem to break a city in half a day, you let the township soldiers prepare, and by the way, help me and Ding sign to inform me, saying that I will go to the immortal world to report some things and let him deal with the affairs of the Xiazhou Ya." ”

Xiao Jian bowed and said, "Only." Then he withdrew.

When Wang Chen was the only one left in the office, he took a deep breath, looked in the southwest direction, and his fingers involuntarily knocked on the table.

Originally, he wanted to make money with peace, dig jade in Bagan to make a lot of money, and then give some broth to the king of Bagan to drink, since the king of Bagan is not interesting, then sorry, buddy can only destroy Bagan, although the price to pay may be a bit big, this battle will burn a lot of money, but Wang Chen understands one thing, as long as he captures Bagan, his income will be huge.

When the time comes, the entire Bagan jadeite will be left to its own mining.

Then the whole people of Bagan will have to do their bidding.

Even...... I can also open up a new development base, and I don't have to be limited to Tongzhou to see Zhao Kuangyin's face.

Maybe you can make an emperor in Bagan!

……

Location teleportation returns to modern society.

It's about seven o'clock in the morning.

Sitting on the bed in the bedroom on the second floor of the countryside, Wang Chen took out his mobile phone and sat quietly for a while, and then made a call.

Alas, and to use the promise that John Chris Morgan promised himself again, for a total of three chances, and to spend both times on arms?

Wang Chen was really a little reluctant.

The Morgan family's promise is too precious.

But I really can't help it, and the only person I can turn to for the time being is John Chris Morgan.

It should be past seven o'clock at night on the American side, and the other side has not slept yet.

Wang Chen finally pressed the dial button.

Toot-toot –

The phone rang again and again.

Unfortunately, there was no answer on the other side.

I guess I'm busy.

Wang Chen put down his mobile phone, ready to dial again later, and was just about to get up and go downstairs to see how the engagement ceremony was prepared tomorrow, when the mobile phone rang.

Jingle bells, jingle bells.

He looked down and saw that an unfamiliar landline number had called in, and the area code in front was 001, from the United States.

It's probably John Chris Morgan.

Wang Chen immediately pressed the answer button, put the mobile phone to his ear, and said with a smile: "Dear Mr. Morgan, good evening." ”

John Chris Morgan laughed heartily from the other side, "Haha, dear Wang, what are you looking for me for?

Sweat.

Are you still thinking about my firebox diamonds?

Wang Chen didn't let go for the time being, "I want to ask you to help me do something." ”

"Is that the second requirement?" asked John Chris Morgan.

"Yes. Wang Chen said.

John Chris Morgan snorted, "Say it." ”

Wang Chen said bluntly: "I need an armed armored vehicle, 20 light mortars, 30 shoulder-mounted rocket launchers, no less than 10,000 shells of various types, 20 million rounds of rifle bullets, and 10 million rounds of heavy machine gun bullets." ”

John Chris Morgan: "......"

The other party was silent.

Wang Chen didn't urge, he knew that this request was very excessive, so he simply didn't speak, and at the same time he also understood one thing, as long as John Chris Morgan helped, these weapons would be legalized.

Wang Chen didn't do anything illegal, especially when it came to arms, he just wanted to take it to the Northern Song Dynasty, and he couldn't commit breaking the law in modern society, and it was also about arms.

After about a minute, John Chris Morgan said slowly: " Mine protection armored vehicles are about 700,000 US dollars, light mortar shells, you want better quality, the lead alone will cost 233 US dollars, in addition, I can give you a mortar gun pop-up factory price, about 1,330 US dollars a mortar, a mortar at least 45 million US dollars, of course, if you only need a mortar and artillery shells during World War II, it will be much cheaper, a mortar is about 500,000 US dollars, artillery shells, 1,500 US dollars can buy about 20 pieces, bazookas, I can get you a copy of the former Soviet RPG7, the export price is 54,000 US dollars a unit, and a normal grenade is 1,500 US dollarsAre you sure you need so many munitions?"

Wang Chen calculated.

If it's a top-notch mortar, 20 of them will cost 150 million dollars, and if you count 10,000 shells and leads, it will cost about 165 million.

And that's just the price of mortars, 30 bazookas cost $1.62 million, and 10,000 grenades cost $15 million, adding up to more than $16.6 million.

Counting the bullets for armored vehicles and rifles and heavy machine guns, it is almost 190 million dollars, and 200 million is a little worse.

In normal times, Wang Chen, in the spirit of saving money, might get some mortars and shells from World War II, but now that he has made a ten-day vow to destroy Bagan, he will definitely need to get the most advanced weapons.

Mortars in modern society are more powerful and less difficult to operate, coupled with accuracy, range, etc., Wang Chen was ruthless and decided to get the most advanced thermal weapons to destroy Bagan.

He didn't have time to give the villagers much time to train and use mortars, or maybe mortar training would be put on actual combat, so he had to make it the most advanced and easy to operate.

Thinking of this, Wang Chen said directly: "I need the most advanced mortars, and the number is as many as I said before, it won't let you break the law, right?"

"No, this order will be placed by a certain African chief in the normal way, and in addition, I will register a legal company in Africa for you to use this batch of weapons in a short time. John Chris Morgan was glad and said, "But you'll have to pay me $200 million." ”

Wang Chen sweated for a moment, "Isn't the price of weapons only about 190 million US dollars?"

John Chris Morgan snorted, "Man, don't you need money for shipping? Don't you need money to register a legal company for you? Don't you give a favor to let the African chief place an order? I didn't overcharge you at all for 200 million dollars, maybe it's not enough, but for the sake of our relationship, I'll give you some concessions." ”

Going to shell out $200 million at once?

Converted into RMB, it is more than a billion!

Thinking of this, Wang Chen's flesh hurts, but who let the king of Bagan bully people too much, paralyzed, buddies fight, anyway, if Bagan can be attacked, there will be countless jadeite for his own mining in the future, not to mention 200 million US dollars, 2 billion, 20 billion US dollars can come back, reluctant children can't trap wolves!

"Okay, 200 million US dollars is 200 million US dollars, how can I give you the money?" Wang Chen asked.

John Chris Morgan said: "The account I sent you money from last time was the account of the Kaman Islands company, right? Tell me the name of the company, and then ask the person in charge to contact me, and I will find someone to do a business worth 200 million dollars with the company, and then the money will be legally credited to my account, as for this batch of arms, give me five days, and after it is sent to Africa, I will tell you where to pick it up, OK?"

"Okay, please. Wang Chen said.

After talking about business, John Chris Morgan smacked his lips and said, "Man, spending 200 million dollars at once should be a big burden for you, do you want to sell me matchbox diamonds?"

Wang Chen smiled bitterly, after all, he was worried about his matchbox diamonds, but as the other party said, he was short of money now, he thought about it, "It's okay to sell it to you, what is the price?"

John Chris Morgen just tried it, but he didn't expect Wang Chen to really agree, he was stunned for a moment, and then said with joy in his tone: "I promised you a billion dollars before, and if you sell it to me, it will be a billion dollars, if you sell it to the person I introduced to you, the price needs to be negotiated by yourself, but I can guarantee one thing, it is definitely more than one billion dollars." ”

Wang Chen is so busy that he has no time to talk to others.

Then again, John Chris Morgan is a gentleman enough to confess this.

He didn't hesitate, "A billion dollars is a billion dollars, I don't have time to talk to anyone." ”

John Chris Morgan said meaningfully, "If you talk to the seller yourself, you have the opportunity to talk about between $1.1 billion and $1.2 billion, but this cycle may be as long as three months to half a year, after all, it involves a big deal of more than a billion dollars, and you can't negotiate it every few months, are you sure you want to sell me a matchbox diamond for a billion dollars?"

Two or three months?

Maybe by then, buddy jadeite has been mined a lot!

Wang Chen didn't have time to talk to the seller, and affirmed: "Yes, a billion dollars will do." ”

"Okay, I'll leave for China overnight, you get the firebox diamonds ready, I expect to be there tomorrow morning in China time, and the money will be remitted to your Cayman Islands bank account according to the normal way, and I will deduct the remaining $200 million for the purchase of arms, how about it?" said John Chris Morgan.

Of course, Wang Chen didn't have any opinions, so he saved a series of troubles, "Okay, I'm sorry for you." After speaking, he half-jokingly followed, "Tomorrow is my engagement day, do you want to come over and present an engagement gift?"

John Chris Morgan laughed and said, "Gifts aren't a problem, I'll send you something nice to make sure you like it." ”

Really?

What gift is guaranteed to be loved by buddies?

Wang Chen was a little looking forward to it, but he couldn't ask directly, so he said, "Then I will prepare a matchbox and diamonds and wait for your arrival." ”

John Chris Morgan said: "If it weren't for the covetousness of your matchbox diamonds, maybe I wouldn't have agreed to your request today, of course, you will feel uncomfortable hearing this, I understand, but I, John Chris Morgan, as the contemporary head of the Morgan family, disdain to be hypocritical to you in this kind of matter, because I cherish you as a friend, Wang, and I hope that our friendship will last forever." ”

Wang Chen's heart sank, and he heard several meanings from it, and he still replied quickly: "Our friendship will last forever." ”

Hang up.

Wang Chen smiled bitterly, his value in the eyes of John Chris Morgan is not as important as a matchbox diamond, the other party said very clearly, if it were not for the matchbox diamonds, it is very likely that the batch of arms he needs today would be useless, fortunately, he did not sell the matchbox diamonds to John Chris Morgan so hastily last time, otherwise where would he be qualified to negotiate today.

At the same time, he also heard another meaning from the words of John Chris Morgan - after this time, they became real friends.

Although he didn't understand why John Chris Morgan's attitude had changed, Wang Chen vaguely guessed that it was probably related to the batch of arms he needed, which made John Chris Morgan mistakenly think that he was a member of an organization in the world, so he needed so many thermal weapons before he could get such a precious diamond.

It's an investment.

John Chris Morgan invests himself in human favor.

It's nothing more than saying that there are good things to come to him in the future, John Chris Morgan, and there are many benefits.

No matter how mistaken the other party is, Wang Chen feels that this is a good thing, at least, he and the Morgan family are no longer a simple interest relationship, and the head of the other party's family thinks that he has the value of use!

None of that.

When the buddies get this batch of arms and return to the Northern Song Dynasty, it is the death period of the king of Bagan, and the husband will do what he says, saying that if the country is destroyed in ten days, the country will be destroyed in ten days!
