Chapter 356 Arms Procurement - Long-Range Missiles

Lu Shaohua followed Zeng Jianguo to the study on the second floor with big questions, as soon as he entered the study, Zeng Jianguo closed the room and locked it again, looking very mysterious, which also made Lu Shaohua realize that what Zeng Jianguo was going to talk to him about next was far beyond his imagination, otherwise it would not be so mysterious.

"Sit down." Zeng Jianguo closed the door, sat down at the main seat of the desk in the study, and pointed to the chair in front of him.

Lu Shaohua did not hesitate to condense, sat down generously, looked at Zeng Jianguo, with a trace of doubt and a trace of expectation.

Seeing Lu Shaohua sitting down, Zeng Jianguo didn't speak immediately, and muttered for a long time, as if he was brewing a feeling, and it seemed to be organizing language, but no matter what it was, what Lu Shaohua saw was Zeng Jianguo's face full of caution and seriousness.

"Lu Shaohua!" Zeng Jianguo shouted Lu Shaohua's name, and went down with his name and surname. After shouting, he stopped again, as if he was giving Lu Shaohua time to react. "Today, I am talking to you in my capacity as the deputy director of the National Security Agency, and I hope you can take it seriously, and at the same time, I also hope that you can keep it secret and not let the second person know."

Zeng Jianguo's words undoubtedly told Lu Shaohua two pieces of information, the first is Zeng Jianguo's position, deputy director of the National Security Bureau, with the rank of lieutenant general, a very scary identity. As for the second piece of information, the next thing to be discussed is in an absolutely confidential state and must not be disclosed to the outside world.

Lu Shaohua is not an ignorant person, nodded heavily, and said. "You say."

"Well, I shouldn't have talked about this matter with you......" Speaking of this, Zeng Jianguo paused for a moment before continuing. Hey, without further ado, let's get down to business. Here's the thing, the country's current missile technology is not advanced, especially long-range missiles, and the technology is far behind, so ......"

"Looking for me?" Although Lu Shaohua knew that it was rude to interrupt others, he still couldn't help but interrupt Zeng Jianguo's words.

It is undeniable that Zeng Jianguo nodded, shifted the spearhead, and said. "I know you have a way, you used to get fighters, frigates, and cruisers from the Soviet Union, and I believe you have a way to get them now."

In fact, Zeng Jianguo wanted to express far more than that, he had another sentence that he didn't say, that is, Lu Shaohua not only got so many military techniques, but also hid some snow and was unwilling to take it out.

Facts have proved that Zeng Jianguo is very wise not to speak so thoroughly, even if Lu Shaohua knows that the country knows that he has made a lot of military technology, but he still doesn't want to be put on the stage, and it is good to keep a tacit understanding between them.

Lu Shaohua did not immediately answer Zeng Jianguo's words, and turned into deep thought, anyone can think of the important surname of long-range missiles for a country, and Lu Shaohua also has the ability to get the technology of long-range missiles, because not long ago, there was news from the African base that there was a major breakthrough in long-range missiles, which means that success is not far away.

Knowing the important surname of long-range missiles, of course Lu Shaohua wants to use this as a bargaining chip to fight for the greatest interests for himself, who let him put on an identity now, businessman, yes, Lu Shaohua is a businessman, what does businessman mean, I believe you don't need to explain it, don't do loss-making business.

In addition to striving for the greatest interests for himself, Lu Shaohua also needs to consider some other things, some unstable factors, Lu Shaohua does not dare to guarantee whether he will make the country realize that he is dangerous after taking out these things, if the country realizes that he is a dangerous person, then Lu Shaohua may not be able to move an inch in the country.

When it comes to his future, Lu Shaohua has to be cautious, even if he knows that he will get unexpected benefits after taking out these things, Lu Shaohua has to think about his future, after all, compared to the future, the immediate benefits are not worth mentioning.

Lu Shaohua's mind seemed to have been seen through by Zeng Jianguo, and while Lu Shaohua was pondering, Zeng Jianguo spoke again. "This matter was proposed by your old Deng, and he also considered it from your standpoint, and the final result was for me to talk to you."

"Grandpa Deng?" Lu Shaohua frowned and asked.

"Hmm!" After a pause, Zeng Jianguo added. "He asked me to tell you that this matter is not harmful to you, although it is a little dangerous, but he will arrange it, and will never push you to the mouth of the storm and leave it alone."

Lu Shaohua didn't speak, closed his eyes and pondered again, it's not that he doesn't believe Zeng Jianguo's words, it's not that he doesn't believe Deng Lao, but people in the political arena sometimes can't help themselves, and sometimes the development of events is not controllable by manpower, even if he is at the pinnacle of politics, he doesn't dare to say that he can control it.

"Do you want to take it out?" Lu Shaohua asked himself in his heart.

Dilemma, one side is Zeng Jianguo and Deng Lao, and the other side is his own future, Lu Shaohua doesn't dare to joke about his future, and at the same time he doesn't want to disappoint the two old people, people are sophisticated, Lu Shaohua happens to pay attention to this aspect, he wants to refuse, he doesn't want to refuse, he is extremely conflicted.

"What good can I get if I take it out?" After a long time, Lu Shaohua asked.

It was not that Lu Shaohua promised to come up with the technology of long-range missiles, but asked tentatively, he wanted to compare benefits with risks to see if the effort was worth it. Of course, when asking this question, Lu Shaohua was thoughtful, and he must have thought of a way out in his heart.

"There is no conclusion yet, there is another thing to say about what benefits can be given to you, but the only thing that is certain is that the problem of money will definitely be paid to you, although the country is poor, but in this matter it will definitely not be like the last time, with conditions in exchange with you." Zeng Jianguo said cautiously.

"Money?" Does Lu Shaohua care about money? To put it mildly, he has more money now than the finance department is in charge of now, and he doesn't care about these at all, he wants real benefits, benefits that can help him develop.

"Money or not money is another matter." Lu Shaohua said without being salty, and then continued. "I want you to know that if there is no tangible benefit, I will not take it out."

Lu Shaohua's attitude suddenly became tough, he did not regard Zeng Jianguo as an elder at this time, but regarded him as a negotiation opponent, who let Zeng Jianguo talk to him as the deputy director of the National Security Bureau.

People may wonder if Lu Shaohua dared to be tough in the face of the country's high-level and indirectly offended the country, will it bring him heavy consequences?

Lu Shaohua is not an impulsive person, he has been fully considered when he says every word, not that he is not afraid of offending the country, but that he has the capital to let him speak like this, after all, the resources he is in charge of behind him are not only controlled by foreign equity participation in the past.

"Well, I'm still the same sentence, we will satisfy you if the policy allows, of course, what benefits still need to be discussed." After speaking, Zeng Jianguo couldn't help but add a sentence in order to make Lu Shaohua feel at ease. "You are my future grandson-in-law, and you can be regarded as half of the family, I still have a little right to speak, and I will not let you fall into a catastrophe."

Zeng Jianguo's words were very sincere, and Lu Shaohua also felt it, nodded and said. "Thank you, Grandpa!"

Lu Shaohua did not add Zeng Jianguo's surname, removed a Zeng character, and directly called 'grandpa'.

"Well, let's talk about it here today, and I'll talk to Deng Lao tomorrow about the specific things, and see what he says. Oh! You came to Yanjing, he also knew, and he wanted to see you by name, I think you will go with me tomorrow. Zeng Jianguo seemed to be very satisfied with Lu Shaohua calling him grandpa directly, and the expression on his face was no longer so serious, and he said with a smile.

Lu Shaohua nodded and said. "I came to Yanjing this time just as a formality, I don't want to show up, after all, my current age is not suitable to go to the stage, and I have a lot of time."

"Then come with me tomorrow morning." After speaking, Zeng Jianguo paused for a moment and said again. "If this is done, it's time for your idle job to be promoted."

Lu Shaohua's idle position? How many idle positions does Lu Shaohua have in the official? The answer is that there is only one, the rank of colonel, what is the promotion of colonel? The general is leveled.

"Major General?" Lu Shaohua asked.

Although he didn't care about this military rank that didn't have any real power, he could still greatly satisfy his vanity by calling him 'chief', and Lu Shaohua was naturally happy to be promoted to a higher level.

"Huh! This is certain, maybe we can't talk elsewhere, but in the military circles, Lao Deng and I can still talk a few words, if it weren't for your age before, the title of major general would have hung on your shoulders a long time ago.

Lu Shaohua smiled and said. "14-year-old Major General, haha!"

Yes, Lu Shaohua is only 14 years old this year, and if the rank of major general is hung on his head, he is really the youngest general in history.

"You little devil." Zeng Jianguo shook his head and smiled bitterly, he didn't expect Lu Shaohua to have such a side. "Alright, we're done talking, let's talk about something else."

"Okay, let's talk about something else, but what are we going to talk about?" Lu Shaohua seemed to be talking to himself in the end, and continued after a while. "Let's talk about Hong Kong."

After speaking, Lu Shaohua didn't wait for Zeng Jianguo to speak, and said again. "You are always the deputy director of the National Security Bureau, you should know the situation in Hong Kong, Hong Kong is about to return to the motherland in 97, the matter is already a sure thing, and manpower cannot change it, but will the British side give a Hong Kong with a good situation to the country completely?"

Lu Shaohua asked, according to memory, when Hong Kong decided to return to the motherland, the British side saw that there was no room for negotiation, and created a lot of rumors, making Hong Kong into a miasma, which Lu Shaohua did not want to see, not to mention that Lu Shaohua still had an official idle position, so he should be reminded.

"Yes, I'm coming back in '97." Zeng Jianguo was quite emotional, but when he listened to Lu Shaohua's reminder, he also realized that something was wrong, but what could he do, after all, before Hong Kong officially returned to the motherland, it was still a British colony, and the country could not interfere.

It is true that the state cannot interfere openly, but it is okay to interfere secretly, but how much role can it play in secret?

Shaking his head with a wry smile, Zeng Jianguo felt a sense of powerlessness. Sighing, he said leisurely. "Do you have any tricks?"

Lu Shaohua didn't speak, and he could express his meaning with a nod.

Seeing this, Zeng Jianguo seemed to see hope, his eyes were shining, and he said hurriedly. "Say it, say it."
