Sun Liechen's work efficiency was very high, and in less than two days, a large number of tents were erected at a training ground next to the headquarters.

In Sun Liechen's words, time is pressing, and it is definitely too late to build a school directly.

Since the troops had captured a large number of marching tents from Fengcheng, they used them to temporarily replace school classrooms and dormitories.

As for the real school, the construction will begin after the command has decided on the site.

Subsequently, a large number of officers of the Liaodong Army were transferred to the headquarters with confused faces and began their three-month training and study.

The Liaodong Military Academy, under the personal auspices of Sun Liechen, has been on the right track step by step.

Yang Xingguo, who had been waiting for William for several days, finally came.

"Commander Yang, it's a pleasure to see you again......" Yang Xingguo called him in such a hurry, which meant that there was business to do.

With Yang Xingguo several times, William not only earned a lot of silver, but his ability was also affirmed by the domestic headquarters. It can be said that all of this was brought to him by Yang Xingguo in front of him.

Therefore, as soon as William saw Yang Xingguo, he gave Yang Xingguo a very warm hug.

After finishing, he directly stared at Yang Xingguo with a pair of hot eyes, and asked with an eager expression.

"Old friend, you must be buying weapons again if you called me over in such a hurry......"

"If you need any weapon, just ask, I will definitely sell it to you at the best price......"

Yang Xingguo waved his hand and replied helplessly: "William, you are so enthusiastic." However, to disappoint you, this time, I am not going to buy weapons. As you should have heard, I just fought a battle with the Japanese and captured a large number of weapons. I can't even use it myself, let alone buy weapons......"

William's face changed, and he wanted to be angry.

However, in front of Yang Xingguo, an old friend. He held back.

looked dissatisfied with Yang Xingguo and complained: "Old friend, aren't you kidding me?" I worked so hard to get here from Qingdao, and you told me that you don't need weapons! ”

Yang Xingguo replied with a mysterious face: "I really don't want weapons...... However, I have a more profitable business here. I don't know if you want to do it......"

can be called a money-making business by Yang Xingguo, it must be a big business, and William doesn't have to think about this question.

As a result, William's face, which was still dissatisfied just now, was quickly covered with excitement.

Looking at Yang Xingguo with an expectant face, he asked, "What kind of money-making business?" ”

"I want to buy equipment, a lot of equipment, if it is made in Germany, then it is best to ......" Yang Xingguo replied as calmly as possible.

However, it was this calm answer that set off a monstrous wave in William's heart.

Compared to the arms business. The small ones are a few thousand taels, and the big ones are tens of thousands of taels. It's not the same with industrial equipment.

A set of small industrial equipment costs at least tens of thousands of taels of silver.

Larger complete sets of industrial equipment, hundreds of thousands of taels, or even millions of taels...... It's all possible.

Therefore, as soon as Yang Xingguo finished speaking, Yang Xingguo asked impatiently: "What equipment, Commander Yang, what equipment do you want to buy, even if our German equipment is not the best." But it must be the best quality. ”

"All the equipment of a small ironworks, a small steelworks, a small power plant...... In addition, I need a complete set of equipment for a gunpowder production plant. Plus three bullet production lines, two rifle production lines, one light machine gun production line, and one heavy machine gun production line. If it's possible, get me two more shell production lines......" Yang Xingguo replied as calmly as possible.

He didn't know if there was any contraband in the factory equipment he had just proposed.

What makes Yang Xingqing fortunate is. William only thought for half a minute before replying, "Ironworks, steelworks, power plants, there are no problems...... As long as you pay a deposit, you can ship it from mainland Germany by sea in a month at most. ”

"I don't know what Commander Yang wants to have a long steel production capacity. To a certain extent, the smaller the factory, the shorter the preparation time in our country, and the faster the equipment you want can be moved to Liao. ”

Yang Xingguo thought for a while and replied: "The strength is limited, and it is impossible for these factories to be built too big: the production capacity of the ironmaking plant should be guaranteed to be 5,000 tons per year, and the production capacity of the steelmaking plant should reach 1,000 tons. As for the power plant, it must be enough to generate electricity for at least one large arsenal...... Otherwise, even if the ironworks and steel mills were built, they would be a pile of scrap iron. “

After briefly recording Yang Xingguo's request, William replied very quickly: "Commander Yang, how much silver is needed for the equipment needed to build these three factories, and there is no way to reply to you now......

"But I will rush back to Qingdao immediately and contact China by telegram. Three days at most, I will give you a reply. ”

Yang Xingguo nodded and continued to ask: "What about the gunpowder factory and the production line of weapons and ammunition, can you sell them to me together......

William hesitated again for a minute before replying: "I don't know if these production lines will be sold in China." You know, these production lines you want can already build a small arsenal......"

"I have to report to the country and seek domestic consent before I can reply to you......"

"However, I am 60% sure that I will persuade China to agree to sell you these equipment and production lines......"

William's hesitation, Yang Xingguo had already thought of it.

However, William's next sentence made Yang Xingguo unexpected.

Therefore, Yang Xingguo, who had a questioning face, subconsciously asked: "Sixty percent sure, Mr. William, I don't know if you can tell me the reason, I also want to know?" ”

Wilhelm did not hide it, and replied directly: "The reason is very simple, compared with those old imperialists in Britain, our German goods cannot grab any market in China at all......

"Now, I finally met you, a big financier, and I believe that China will not easily refuse your request......

"Also, we Germany lack resources, and these territories under your control, Commander Yang, have a large number of iron ore and coal mines that Germany needs, and I will use this as a bargaining chip to negotiate with China at that time. As long as the country agrees to sell you these equipment and production lines, we in Germany can buy iron ore and coal from you......"

"I don't know if Commander Yang agrees or not? If they agree, there must be more than 80% chance of a negotiation......"

Yang Xingguo replied to this proposal without thinking about it: "Yes, in addition, I can cooperate with you Germany in other aspects...... I will even invite you German soldiers to come to Liaodong to help me train the army in Liaodong......"

William's eyes lit up, and he replied confidently: "That's easy, Commander Yang, I'll go back to Liaodong and contact China with the electric board." In order to hurry up, I hope you can send me ...... with cavalry"

"No problem......" Yang Xingguo replied very briskly.
