"The Russians are instigated!" After drying the Russians for almost two months, Ruprecht finally decided to meet with the Russian representatives. Now the situation is already obvious! Whether for the sake of the Navy or for the sake of diplomacy, the Russians must admit it! If you can't buy a good weapon, you can only say that it's a pity, if you let the enemy buy it, it will be a tragedy! This is not the time to be heartbroken for money! Although the Japanese are the godsons of the British, they didn't say that they wouldn't buy German weapons. Therefore, the Russians must be strong before the Japanese.

"Uh, who is this?" When the Russians walked into the conference room, Ruprecht saw a somewhat familiar figure, didn't he say Makanov, how could this Russian soldier have the beauty next to him? Ruprecht directly ignored the two Russian uncles next to him. "This person looks familiar!"

"You met Her Majesty Nikolai when you first met her. And talked. Count Schelling immediately reminded.

"Oh, I remember, it's the girl who blocked the guns for Makanov and Kulopatkin!" Ruprecht suddenly realized. Today's countess looks even more bright and moving, wearing a white pleated skirt with rose-colored lace embroidered on the hem, a fair face, slender eyebrows, delicate facial features just right to embellish the face, and a high bun with a different flavor. The slightly nervous expression made her as cute as a frightened fawn.

"Okay, no problem, the Russians have already reached the level of sending girls, there will be no problems in this negotiation!" At this time, the brain hole of our prince once again jumped to the country of Java, the Ukrainian soft girl currently! However, the attraction is still not as great as that of the pound!

"This is Countess Azelina, and from today she will be the liaison of the Russian Embassy in Bavaria, if there is anything you can contact directly." Parikin introduced. To say that there was a little thing in Hamburg back then, it was not a big deal at all, but what Ruprecht did also allowed the Russians to find the usefulness of this Ukrainian countess, a family canary, there is no loss to throw out, maybe you can make some, if it weren't for Ruprecht's trip around the world, this countess would have taken office a long time ago!

"Seriously, how are you thinking about it?" Ruprecht still has no intention of changing the conditions! I'm full of good cards now, and the Japanese want to buy them! This one will be able to eat the Russians to the death! In the eyes of the Russians, the prince is all about making money, and for a qualified businessman, today you can't beat him, tomorrow he will do business with you! Without this mind, Ruprecht would not have developed now!

"We can buy two warships in the normal order order without you paying in advance, but the premise is that we need to get a guarantee from you that the warships and related drawings produced by your design bureau cannot be transferred to Japan! In addition, you should make an appropriate concession in terms of price! "I've been waiting for 2 months, and Parikin doesn't want to wait endlessly, and now the situation is changing rapidly, if Japan and Germany really reach an agreement, and even affect the current alliance between Russia, Germany and France in the Far East, then it will really be a loss to my grandmother's family.

"Huh." Ruprecht had a triumphant smile on his face. The prince was very ambitious, and he and the Russians didn't just want to do this business! The French controlled almost a considerable part of the shipyards in Russia by francs and by supplying complete sets of shipbuilding equipment, so Ruprecht intended to take the order for the construction of cruisers from the Russians! If this goal can be achieved, the Japanese order is really nothing!

"As long as there is one ship of your country in the Brom-Foss shipyard! Then we would not have taken orders from the Japanese. As for the price? For the sake of this beautiful young lady, and for the convenience of the countess's future work, I am willing to reduce the price by 10,000 pounds, and in return I need to provide samples of 12-inch guns and 10-inch guns as soon as possible! How is it? Ruprecht glanced at Countess Aterina and said.

If the first condition of the Russians is the bottom line and cannot be changed, then the second condition is more for the sake of face. Ruprecht would have done enough to make a slight concession, not to mention that if he could get the artillery earlier, it would have helped his plan a lot, and the £10,000 reduction would be worth it.

"Very good, I hope your country can start construction as soon as possible, and the first £450,000 start-up capital will be transferred to your company's bank account in five days." Without the slightest politeness, a few sentences ended the negotiations between the two sides that had been tug-of-war for months! Parokin's last words finally made Ruprecht's heart fall back, if the normal procedure is followed, even if the Russians break the contract in the middle, the shipyard will not take any risks!

After the talks, taking advantage of the lunch break, Ruprecht discussed some details of the contract with Baron Vittorio! There are some things that cannot be said in front of the Russians!

"Pay attention to the construction period, let's calculate it according to the normal 30 months, if the Russians want to rush the work, they need to add money.

"The gun mount design is based on the original idea, and it can be slightly modified to be compatible with both Russian and British guns of the same caliber and the guns we intend to use in the future."

"Boss, didn't you say that you would not produce battleships for the Japanese?" Vittorio figured out the key in a blink of an eye, which is obviously to prepare a system to supply the three countries!

"Stupid! O Italy! The new Italian battleships were also intended to use the 10-inch guns of the British! I'm trying to compete for an Italian order! Although the whole ship is not bought. But it's okay to sell a turret and armor! Your ship design bureau has made enough money, and we and the Austro-Hungarian Bavarian-Austrian military-industrial complex have not yet opened! Ruprecht said dissatisfiedly.

"Boss Shengming!" The baron thought about it and added Austria to the back of Italy!

"In terms of power system, new water-tube boilers and steam engines can be appropriately adopted, and the improvement of the ventilation ducts and chimneys of the battleship can also be tried on this battleship." Ruprecht commanded. The Russians are just guinea pigs, a lot of good things are cheap!

Just as Ruprecht was explaining things to the baron, Count Schelling hurriedly walked in, and then whispered a few words in Ruprecht's ear, and then Ruprecht's face changed, "This afternoon, you are responsible for receiving the Russian delegation, I have something to do." ”

"Uh, what's more important than a multimillion-dollar order?" The baron said helplessly.

"My sister is here." Ruprecht said without looking back, and then immediately left the house with Count Schelling!

"Aren't you the firstborn?" The baron muttered.
