Chapter XIII The Arms Deal
As soon as Wang Jundao and the three of them walked into the church, a bearded German greeted him, he was the priest of this church, and he saw Cui Jingluo's arrival upstairs just now, so he directly said to Cui Jingluo: "Oh, my God, dear Cui, you actually cut that ugly-looking braid, I'm so surprised." ”
"Rudolph, you know, that thing gets dirty and hard to wash, so I cut it off as soon as I gritted my teeth." Cui Jingluo said with a smile.
"You're so right, that hateful braid is just too much trouble." Rudolph showed a look of joy for Cui Jingluo.
"Mr. Rudolph, I see that your beard is also very troublesome, and the most important thing is that when you kiss your wife, you will pierce her face, why don't you cut it too." Wang Jundao joked suddenly. Of course, he speaks German.
As soon as his words came out, Rudolph's mouth suddenly opened wide, at least enough to hold two eggs, and Cui Jingluo and Lei Ba were also taken aback, the two of them obviously didn't expect Wang Jundao to know the language of foreigners.
"Oh, my God, I am amazed that you can speak German so well, and that you look so young." Rudolf also spoke in pure German. His eyes widened and he looked at Wang Jundao, as if he wanted to find some deep secret from him.
"Am I small?" Wang Jundao asked with a smile, in fact, he doesn't look small now, in just one month, because all the meridians in his body are unblocked, there is no trace of impurities in his body, not only has he cultivated to Dacheng, but even his height has soared by six or seven centimeters, and now he is more than one meter seventy-five, plus his temperament, he doesn't look like a person who has just turned fourteen years old, but like a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old.
"Ou, of course, you are now at most seventeen or eighteen years old, and I am thirty-seven years old, and I can be your father, do you say that you are not young?" Rudolph rightfully authentic.
"My father is taller and more powerful than you, much more handsome and chic, you can only be my father's housekeeper at most." Wang Jundao knew that this guy was verbally taking advantage of himself, so he didn't give Rudolph face at all, and said with a smile unceremoniously.
"Uh......" Rudolph suffered a dumb loss, but he won't take it to heart, who wants to take advantage of others? He turned his head to look at Cui Jingluo and asked in Chinese, "Dear Cui, why didn't your boss Kang come this time?" ”
"He's not my boss anymore." Cui Jing smiled slightly, looked at Wang Jundao, and said, "He is my boss now." ”
"Ou, you actually jumped ship...... realizing that his words were a little unkind, Rudolph hurriedly said: "Well, your choice is too wise, Kang is a greedy person, and there is no way out with him." ”
Rudolph looked at Wang Jundao again, and Wang Jundao smiled and said, "My name is Wang Jundao, you can call me Wang." ”
"Ou, dear Wang ......" As soon as Rudolph's words came out, he immediately realized that he had suffered a big loss, and he shouted like this, isn't it equivalent to saying that Wang Jundao is his king?
"Rudolph, I like this title of yours so much, let's call it that way in the future." Wang Jundao laughed.
"Oh, this won't work, Wang ......"
Rudolph was about to continue, but was interrupted by Wang Jundao again: "Well, I like this title too, and you can call me that way in the future." ”
"No, no, no, I'll still call you Young Master Wang." Rudolph didn't dare to entangle with Wang Jundao anymore, he found that he couldn't say Wang Jundao, who let Wang Jundao be surnamed Wang?
"Haha, that's not bad." Wang Jundao laughed again, and then his expression straightened slightly, and said, "Rudolph, do you have a quiet place here?" I want to tell you something important. ”
"Of course, of course." Rudolph has probably guessed Wang Jundao's intention, since Cui Jingluo brought Wang Jundao here, and Wang Jundao is his boss, of course he came for arms, since he is buying arms, of course he is happy, after all, it is an opportunity to make a lot of money.
After a short time, Rudolph took Wang Jundao and the three of them to a secret quiet room, Wang Jundao and Rudolph talked a lot of things in German, especially Wang Jundao said a lot of words praising Germany, which made Rudolph very proud, and soon regarded Wang Jundao as his friend.
After the two chatted for a long time, Wang Jundao felt that the time was almost up, and said directly: "Dear Rudolph, I heard my housekeeper say that you have many good weapons produced in your country, and I dare to say that they are definitely the best weapons in the world. ”
"Dear king, you will be my forever friend, I can't even imagine that if I leave those things like this again, will they all rust, if you want them all, I have decided to sell you at a low price, Mauser pistol fifteen taels of silver, Mauser rifle thirty taels of silver, Makqin heavy machine gun one hundred taels of silver, I have here five hundred Mauser pistols, fifteen hundred Mauser rifles, and fifty heavy machine guns. In addition, there are more than a million bullets of all kinds, all of which come with you. Rudolph was touched by Wang Jundao, because his weapons, especially the Mauser pistol and Mauser rifle, because there were too many of them, and he was the nominal church priest, he did not dare to sell them blatantly, so he could not find a good buyer at all, these things had been stored in the warehouse in the church for almost three months, and he wanted to sell them as soon as possible, so that he could go to other goods to sell.
"Dear Rudolph, you still have a heavy machine gun?" Wang Jundao was really shocked, he never expected that Rudolph not only had so many pistols and rifles, but also so many light and heavy machine guns, especially the Makqin machine gun, which was a huge killing weapon, in the history of his previous life, the Makqin heavy machine gun was rampant in the world for more than half a century, according to statistics, more than 30 million people died directly under the muzzle of the Makqin machine gun. With such a big killer as the Maxim machine gun and this batch of Mauser guns, he can form a reinforced regiment.
"Ou, dear king, what I said is absolutely true, if you don't believe it, you can go with me to see." Rudolph was afraid that Wang Jundao would not believe his words, so he hurriedly said.
"No, no, no, I believe you, I'm just surprised, how can you have so many weapons, and you also have a Maxim heavy machine gun." Wang Jundao said in surprise.
"Because Zakharov and I are best friends, all these arms of mine are coming to him at a low price." Rudolph glanced at Wang Jundao strangely, and said, in fact, half of what he said was false, he was a good friend of Zakharov, but he didn't get it at a low price at all, but paid a little deposit to get this batch of goods, because Zakharov didn't take this batch of goods in his eyes at all, and it should have been given to him.
Wang Jundao finally understood why Rudolph had these things, and who was Zakharov? It was the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, the world's number one arms chief. After the advent of the Makqin heavy machine gun, the road to sales was extremely bumpy, he valued the huge prospects of the Makqin heavy machine gun, with its unique means, and cooperated with the Makqin to obtain the exclusive right to sell the Makqin heavy machine gun, and within a few years, he made a lot of money. During the First World War, he traveled between many countries, made huge profits from various countries through the arms business, and became the most mysterious and richest man in Europe at that time, so he deserved to be the "merchant of death" in the early twentieth century, and at the same time the real "king of war".
Although Wang Jundao's heart was turbulent, he said quietly: "I want all these weapons of yours, we will agree on a place to deliver them, I will first give you ten gold bars with a total of one hundred taels of gold as a deposit, and half of the rest of the silver taels, I will send them to you tomorrow, and the remaining half will be given to you when we deliver them." ”
Wang Jundao said, and took out ten golden sticks of gold, a total of 100 taels, one tael of gold is worth 20 taels of silver (since the end of the 19th century, the exchange ratio of gold and silver in China is 1:20, and the value of one hundred taels of gold is equal to two thousand taels of silver).
Rudolph was immediately overjoyed, took ten pieces of gold, put them in his hands, and only felt heavy, because his batch of arms was obtained from his friend Zakharov, the cost was extremely low, and it was worth more than 30,000 taels of silver, and because Zakharov was his friend, he only paid the first deposit worth 3,000 taels of silver to Zakharov to get this batch of goods, but he didn't expect that he could earn more than 20,000 taels of silver in a blink of an eye before he had paid off all the purchase prices, how did he not like it? It's the equivalent of an empty glove white wolf.
He was deeply afraid that Wang Jundao would regret it, so he hurriedly said: "Dear Wang, although we are already very good friends, you are familiar with the traditions of my country, and you should know that in my country, you need to sign a contract to do business, so let's sign a contract." ”
"Of course." Wang Jundao nodded, he was also afraid that Rudolph would regret it, so many good things, I was afraid that ordinary people would not be able to buy it with 100,000 taels of silver, and he could buy it with more than 50,000 taels, it can be said that he made a lot of money, Rudolph was afraid that he would regret it, and he was afraid that Rudolph would regret it.
The two had different hearts, happily took the contract, and made an appointment to deliver the goods at a secret place outside Jinan, Wang Jundao said with a bitter face: "Dear Rudolph, you know, my country is too poor, I plan to let you help me buy equipment and machines, I want to run my own factory, so that I can make more money, of course, the more advanced the various machines, the better, especially all kinds of manufacturing machines, all kinds of motors, all kinds of machine tools, etc., the more the better, and you know, I can't find good workers, If you can help me bring skilled employees, I will give them a higher salary than they used to be, if they bring their families, I am willing to help them settle them, if you can buy a machine with a hundred taels of silver, I will pay you one hundred and twenty taels of silver, and if you can recruit a worker for me, I will also pay you three taels of silver. ”
"Dear Wang, you are really discerning, there are not many people with vision like you, there are few in your country, I believe that you will definitely become the most successful businessman in your country, I am happy to help you with this busy, and when we finish this business, I will return to China immediately, believe me, I will come back soon." Rudolph looked at Wang Jundao and said. In fact, helping Wang Jundao is one thing, asking Zakharov for more weapons to buy is what he wants to do the most, of course, he is also happy to buy machines for Wang Jundao and recruit workers, at this time he already sees Wang Jundao as his God of Wealth.
"My dear Rudolph, I have one more request, can you call me all kinds of research and design talents in your country, whether they are in physics, chemistry, biology, medicine, machines, ships, I need them to work for me, and I will pay them a higher salary than where they have been, and if you can recruit one such person to work for me, I will pay you thirty taels of silver, and if you can recruit thirty such men, I will pay you a thousand taels of silver. Wang Jundao continued.
"Oh, my God, dear king, you are so good, I will definitely do my best to recruit such a person for you." Recruit a man to work for Wang Jundao and get a reward of thirty taels of silver, which is simply more cost-effective than selling a Mauser rifle, and Rudolph is now eager to put on his wings and fly to Germany.
