Chapter 449 - A Little More Expensive Than Scrap Iron (Ask for Subscription)
"The spare parts in our regiment are also limited, the T54 has been out of production for at least ten years, and there have been no more spare parts on it, they have been given to you, what do we use?" Before Varich could speak, a Soviet soldier who came with the regiment commander said loudly, he spoke in Russian, and the curling of his tongue made the air full of his spittle.
The translator next to Zhao Sheng translated this sentence to Zhao Sheng, Zhao Sheng plucked out his ears, and then waved his arm.
Soon, several men surrounded the soldier who had just spoken, and pushed him to the ground, and the screams soon reached the ears of everyone, and the force of the punishment was obviously worse than that of Varych, and the soldier was unable to make a sound at all.
"Hey, you can stop in moderation!" Varich still felt sorry for his subordinates, because the people he could bring out were all his cronies, and it was not easy to cultivate henchmen in the barracks who could be fully trusted. If it weren't for this group of cronies, he wouldn't have done so much in the army.
"I advise you to control your own people, don't even know how you died at that time, if you can agree to the requests I made, we are partners, but if you can't agree, we will ......" Zhao Sheng didn't finish speaking.
Varich's expression began to become cautious, he didn't know whether he was right or wrong this time, but now that things have developed to this point, he can't help but regret it, so the most correct choice is to cooperate with Zhao Sheng, at least to ensure that he can return to the Soviet Union safely.
Thinking of this, Varich's facial muscles finally eased a little, it was more important to save his life first, and he was more witty.
"I can promise you all the conditions, but the price is ......," Varich rubbed his hands, looking very embarrassed.
Although the T54 is in tatters, it is also the main battle tank of twenty years ago, and the so-called obsolescence is only a battle for military camps such as NATO and the Warsaw Pact.
In a real fight, it is possible for three or four T54s to defeat one T64!
For other small countries, the T54 is still a very cheap and beautiful weapon, at least it can solve the problem of whether the tank has or not. Therefore, this tank can be sold for at least 500,000 dollars in the international market, even if it is half sold and half given!
"$80,000 a piece, but you have to bear the cost of transportation and the placement of maintenance workers on the road, I don't care how you spend the $80,000, anyway, I will see the tank appear at the designated place when the time comes." Zhao Sheng thought for a moment, and then said.
In fact, the price given above is $100,000, of course, the price of the T-54 is not comparable with the price of modern times, but if the T54 is well maintained, $100,000 is definitely cheap and beautiful.
However, Zhao Sheng felt that he only needed $80,000 to win, so why did he have to use $100,000!
After all, Zhao Sheng is now a businessman, not a procurement officer in the army, and according to Lin Zhong's words, the businessman's job is to make money!
$80,000...... Varich frowned, this is almost like picking it up for nothing! You must know that the T64 tank, the main force of the Soviet army, is exported overseas, at least more than 2 million US dollars.
Although the T54 is a little worse, $500,000 can definitely become a sought-after item in the international market. After all, the Type 69 tanks exported by China dare to offer $1 million!
And the Type 69 tank, it is said that it is a lot more advanced than the 59, but in fact, it is still tinkering on the basis of the 59, in essence, it is still the 59 change.
However, catering to the tastes of customers in the international market, some of the latest technologies are used, such as laser rangefinders, artillery commanders' night vision sights, commanders' day and night observation command scopes, and artillery two-way stabilizers. Then, a main battle tank with the same level of technology, which cannot be bought for $1 million.
Generally, the domestic production cost of tanks such as 59 and 69 will not exceed 500,000 yuan. However, when selling to the international market, the price is generally doubled to 1 million, and then the RMB units are exchanged for US dollar units. The $1 million Type 69 tank, although it looks like a good product, it also uses a lot of fashionable and advanced technology. Therefore, the export price of $1 million is not too tricky.
The 69 tank once became a hit in the international market, and this thing can sell for $1 million!
And Zhao Sheng offered 80,000 US dollars for Maozi's T54 tank, such an offer is almost equivalent to bullying the Soviets!
But Zhao Sheng didn't feel that there was anything wrong with his price at all, after all, this Soviet soldier did not export weapons and equipment on behalf of the Soviet Union. Instead, they stole the weapons and equipment in their warehouses and sold them for money in exchange for living expenses.
If the days were a little harder, I believe they would have done it even by selling tanks for scrap metal. Tanks weighing tens of tons, selling scrap iron, can indeed be sold for a few bucks.
Therefore, the offer of $80,000 is already considered more conscientious. At least, it's a little more expensive than the price of scrap iron!
You must know that after the collapse of the former Soviet Union, in order to deceive the countries in the former Soviet Union, Europe and the United States destroyed weapons and equipment, basically recycling them at the price of scrap iron. Sometimes, even the weapons have been destroyed into scrap iron, but the buyers break the contract and say that they will not accept it, anyway, the main purpose of those buyers is to deceive those fools into destroying their own armaments, and they do not really intend to collect scrap iron!
"Are you embarrassed, in that case, I won't force it. However, you have to think clearly about the consequences!" Zhao Sheng spoke mercilessly, stomping on Valich's face fiercely, not only that, but he also showed that he was very reasonable.
The muscles on Varich's face trembled, he didn't know what he had done in his previous life, he met such a nemesis, the other party pinched his weakness, knowing that he didn't have the strength to fight him hard at present, so he dared to be so arrogant, if this was in the Soviet Union, Varich directly asked people to tie him up, drunk him, and then threw him into the cold wild, even if he was not frozen to death, maybe he would feed the beast.
It's a pity that it's in China now, and after Walish left his own territory, he basically couldn't exert his strength.
"Okay, 80,000 is 80,000, I can grant you all your requests, but until then, all of us must return safely to the territory of the Soviet Union, and this business can only be done if we both show the corresponding sincerity. Varich said with a deep breath.
"Okay, I'll send you back early tomorrow morning, and I'll see the tank in three days. Zhao Sheng readily agreed, and then arranged for someone to send them to the lounge, "If you don't fulfill your promise, then there will be no more Chinese businessmen to cooperate with you in the future!"
