Chapter 78: The Biggest Procurement Plan in History!
As boxes of gold with obvious central bank logos on the outside were loaded onto the huge freighter docked at the port of Chongming Island, the fifteen heads and members of the Donghui cabinet entered the gold room with their respective expert advisory groups and took their seats at the gold round table according to their ranks.
It wasn't until the last box of gold was loaded onto the ship and placed in the hold that the freighter silently started to leave the port, soaring to more than 40 knots in a very short time, so that the admirals of all countries who observed this superfreighter with a displacement of no less than 80,000 tons with binoculars on the battleship were so shocked that their eyes almost fell to the ground.
"Cake sellers! This is the real high-tech of Donghui Navy! ”
"Hurry up and send a telegram to the country to send this latest information back!"
"Arrange a traffic boat immediately, I must go to Chongming Island immediately!"
"Cake sellers! It was already faster than forty-five knots...... Exceeded! Definitely exceeded! It's so huge, how can it be so fast! Cake sellers! ...... who sells cakes"
"Hurry up and put the boat down for me! Right away! Immediately! Fast! Hurry up, hurry up! ”
“……”
There was a burst of chickens and dogs jumping on the battleships, battlecruisers, and heavy cruisers of various countries, not to mention it for the time being, just inside the hall of the Golden House.
After all the personnel of the fifteen countries arrived, Cheng Gong, who deliberately changed into the regular uniform of Admiral Donghui, came out of the office, walked calmly to the Kowloon golden chair on the ninth golden step and sat down slowly, and then looked around with a smile on his face, and said with a smile:
"With so many capital ships of the navies of various countries coming today, has anyone thought of taking the opportunity to join forces to take down Chongming Island and snatch up this golden house of this king?"
"Haha! Your Majesty, you have such a good sense of humor! ”
"That's it! How could people have such unfriendly thoughts? You must be mistaken! ”
Looking at the insincere explanations of the group of people below, Cheng Gong didn't care, and continued to have an unfathomable smile on his face, and said slowly: "Actually, it's normal to have this idea." Since ancient times, wealth has moved people's hearts, not to mention such a big treasure made of pure gold! Greed is not only the greatest original sin, but also the driving force for the development of human civilization and human society.
Hehe, no kidding everyone. If you can keep your promise to send all the gold and related mineral transfer documents, this king will naturally abide by the original agreement and take out the prepared materials and distribute them to everyone. However, before that, there is one more thing that this king wants to discuss with you, I don't know what you think? ”
"Where?" Lawrence Rockefeller asked sensitively.
"Look at the big screen!" Cheng Gong didn't answer, but snapped his fingers at the raised hand.
As a result, the purpose, charter, system, and core content of the "Chongming Island System" were displayed in English PPT.
While everyone was staring at the big screen carefully, Cheng Gong was not idle, and continued: "Since it is cooperation, of course there must be contacts. Donghui's national construction requires a large amount of various materials and equipment, so I have decided to purchase them from all of you.
The first batch of materials included 30 million tons of rice, 30 million tons of flour, 10 million tons of beef, sheep and pork, 10 million tons of edible oil, 10 million horses of high-grade cotton cloth and silk, and 10,000 tons of pig bristles.
All complete sets of machinery and equipment required by 30 large textile mills, all machinery and equipment required by iron and steel complexes with an annual output of 5 million tons of steel, 20 large thermal power stations and 20 hydroelectric power stations, 100,000 kilometers of standard broad-gauge railways, 300,000 general machine tools, and 5 large shipyards;
In addition, 100 million barrels of oil, 10 million tons of high-quality anthracite, 10 million tons of iron ore, 10 million tons of manganese ore, 10 million tons of titanium ore, 10 million tons of chrome ore, 10 million tons of tin ore, 10 million tons of bauxite, 10 million tons of zinc ore, 10 million tons of nickel ore, 10 million tons of lead ore, 10 million tons of tungsten ore, 10 million tons of phosphate ore, 5 million tons of diamond ore, 10 million tons of nitrate ore, and 10 million tons of sulfur ore. That's basically all for the first phase of the procurement plan, I wonder if you are interested? ”
As Cheng Gong's words fell, there was a "hum", and the whole scene was like an explosion.
"This procurement plan is contracted by us in the United States......"
"Fack! Can you Yankees eat it! Of course, it's our British Empire that comes to pack! ”
"Shet! You don't want to be alone, all the supplies can be provided by us in the Soviet Union! ”
"This order belongs to Germany!"
"Yaga! This is an order from the Great Dongying Empire, who dares to grab it! ”
“……”
In the face of this super order with a total value of more than $50 billion issued by Donghui, the representatives of the United States, Britain, France, Germany, the Soviet Union, Dongying, Italy, and other countries suddenly had green eyes, shortness of breath, red faces, red ears, and fists.
You know, at that time, the cost of a battleship George V was about 7,393,134 million pounds, which is equivalent to 27 million US dollars. An Essex-class aircraft carrier costs about $73 million
With an order of 50 billion dollars, even if you can only get 1/5 billion dollars, you can build at least 180 battleships of George V! 68 Essex-class aircraft carriers!
With such a huge piece of cake, no country will let go easily.
Everyone, you don't accept me, I don't accept you, after a wild spray of saliva, I don't know who actually took off his leather shoes and threw them and smashed them on Lawrence Rockefeller's face.
How could the eldest young master of the Rockefeller family bear this loss, he took off the leather shoes on his feet without hesitation, and no matter who smashed them, he smashed them hard at the pile of people who were arguing.
Coincidentally, a leather shoe smashed right on the head of the Soviet representative Chernenko.
The polar bear suddenly roared wildly, and swooped down on the Yankees with a fist.
On the other side, in order to compete for 10 million pieces of cotton cloth and silk, Zeng Guanghong, the representative of Huaxia, also scuffled with Mitsui Jiro, the representative of Dongying.
At this time, the French and British representatives did not care about their friendship, and like a cockfight, you push me, I push you, and the saliva brought out by each other's loud shouting falls on each other's faces like rain.
The German representative was warning the Swiss representative not to come to fight with Germany, but he did not know that the Swiss representative did not care about any neutral country or not, and did not flinch from the-for-tat.
"Oops! Don't do that, everyone! What can I say? Everyone is a civilized person, it's not like this, isn't it! Cheng Gong sat on the dragon chair, biting a cigar that had just been lit in his mouth, looking like he was extremely distressed, but the voice he shouted was vague and not very clear.
"Everyone! Everybody! Please exercise restraint, stay calm, and don't get excited......" Cheng Gong saw that it was almost over, and then turned his face to look at the personal bodyguards brought by the representatives of various countries who were standing there in a daze at a loss on the periphery of the crowd, and suddenly jumped up and shouted loudly:
"Holy! Why are you bodyguards still standing there stupidly, hurry up and pull away your respective masters! If it goes on like this, it has to be beaten out of a dog's brain! ”
