When Jiang Cheng heard this, isn't this the reason, his heart was settled, and he clapped his hands violently and said, "Okay, it's decided like this, how much do you want?" I can't afford to pay more, I'll pay six million dollars, what do you think? You know, I'm taking a lot of risks, and I can't stand it if you ask for too much money. ”

The two of Benes looked at each other, and Benes craned his neck and said, "Add more, this is the largest military factory in our Czech Republic, and there are a large number of affiliated companies." There are countless patents and technologies, as well as a large number of weapons and ammunition in stock, as well as a large number of scientific researchers, his value is immeasurable, add a little. ”

Jiang Cheng also knew that this would probably be the largest income that Benes's resistance group could get, he thought for a while and said, "In this way, I will give you six million dollars first, and then I will put two million dollars into your secret account every year, this is already my limit, and you also know that the cash of the company will not be too much." ”

Benes nodded and said, "Okay, then we'll sign the agreement now, Mr. Alder has brought all the company's chapters, we'll do it now, I'll open the green channel again, it only takes two days to complete the procedures, I don't know if you have your seals or not." ”

Jiang Cheng took out his pen and said with a smile, "Okay, I just brought our company's seal, let's sign the contract now." ”

The two looked at each other and laughed, and just like that, at Hitler's lunch, the owner of the Skoda Arsenal, which he had always dreamed of, became Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng and Benes took two days to complete all the formalities quickly, and by the time Hitler learned about it, Jiang Cheng was already meeting with the executives of the Skoda Arsenal.

-- Berlin

"Damn thief, I'm going to break his neck!!" Hitler shouted furiously. Eva, who heard the sound, saw Hitler's appearance and exhaled lightly, if it weren't for the luxury goods that Weihua Group sent to her home yesterday, she wouldn't have come to touch her head at this time.

"My Führer, what's wrong with you?" Eva asked, looking worried.

"What's wrong? That damn Chinese. Damn ginger, he actually secretly bought the Skoda Arsenal, oh my God, it was the best factory in Czechoslovakia, and he was cheaper, I was going to close his company immediately, confiscate his assets, and he wouldn't get a dime. Hitler anxiously circled around and said, "He is worse than the Jews, I knew it would be so, and he always insisted that there was business on the Czechoslovak side." I thought it was just some arms dealings at most, but I didn't expect him to ask not only for eggs, but also for old hens! ”

Although Eva was Hitler's first mistress, Hitler didn't like to talk about things in front of her, until Eva got Jiang Cheng's reminder and constantly enlightened and comforted Hitler when he was bored, which made Hitler slowly like this feeling.

"My Führer, I am a woman who does not understand the affairs of your country. But I've been in contact with that Jiang a few times, and I think he's as loyal to the Empire as Goering, and he's just offered something like the Roman Plan, and I think you should listen to what he thinks. Eva helped Hitler to the couch. He said gently, "No matter what, you shouldn't be angry, your body is the greatest treasure of our empire." ”

Hitler closed his eyes and soothed his emotions. Touching Eva's face, he said, "You're right, I'm so excited, I want him to explain this to me immediately." This arsenal is related to the production of armaments behind our German army, and it is important, not something to be joked about. ”

On the other side, Jiang Cheng visited the interior details of the Arsenal under the management of the Škoda Arsenal, and constantly promised that not only would not lay off employees, but would increase the welfare of workers, ensure that workers had rest time, and give managers higher salaries.

When Jiang Cheng saw the production data of the Skoda Arsenal, he knew what kind of treasure he had picked up. There are many workshops in the Škoda Arsenal, which can not only produce all kinds of weapons, but also produce cars, cars, trucks, rail and trolleybus cars, electric locomotives and other heavy industrial products, and in terms of output, the LT-38 tank alone can produce more than 300 units per year, ZB-26 light machine guns can produce tens of thousands of units per year, and other ammunition is in the hundreds of millions, although a lot of stocks have been secretly transferred, but there are more ammunition weapons in the warehouse, There are more than 50 million stocks of 7.92 rifle ammunition alone, what kind of concept is this, in history, the ammunition consumed by the Eighth Route Army in eight years is also this number.

Alder learned Chen Nan's name and said, "Boss, do you have anything that needs to be adjusted to our factory?" ”

Jiang Cheng was stunned for a while before he said, "Yes, the German army will be the main customer of our factory in the future, and now is the expansion period of the German army, we must seize the opportunity to get more orders." This requires us to increase production and reduce prices, and we need to concentrate on a few categories of civilian products, well, only tractors, trucks, and cars, anyway, these types of vehicle production lines can be transferred to military use at any time, in addition, we need to call our research team, we have to redesign and produce weapons. ”

At this time, Chen Nan came over and said, "Boss, Berlin's emergency telegram, Hitler seems to have known about our purchase of the arsenal, and I want you to go back and explain, you see?" ”

Jiang Cheng smiled and said, "Of course you have to go back, you prepare the car immediately, we will be in Berlin soon, this matter can't be avoided." ”

Chen Nan nodded and went out to make arrangements.

Alder asked worriedly, "What if Hitler did it?" ”

Jiang Cheng patted Alder on the shoulder and said, "That's not it, I still have a lot of use for him, okay, you have to hurry up and liquidate the factory, I will come back in a week at most, and then our factory will have a lot of things to adjust." ”

-- Berlin

Hitler looked at the smiling Jiang Cheng, and next to him sat Schacht, Goering, Himmler and others.

"Jiang, don't you want to explain? Why did the Skoda Arsenal suddenly go to your name? Hitler looked at Jiang Cheng coldly and asked.

Jiang Cheng said with a smile, "This is very simple, my head of state, you also know that our heavy industry in China has always been very poor, our group has wanted to get heavy industry factories for a long time, it just so happens that the Skoda Arsenal is a little unstable, we have secretly negotiated for more than half a year to take it down, but it took me a lot of effort." That's it. ”

"That's it???" Hitler slapped the table and shouted, "The Skoda Arsenal is an inevitable thing for the Reich, the Reich spent so much effort to get Czechoslovakia, and now the biggest result has been stolen by you, you actually just say?? ”

Jiang Cheng spread his hands and said, "My Führer, these two things are not contradictory, the arsenal is in my hands, but he can also work for you, just like Mercedes-Benz, Krupp and other companies, my Skoda is also part of the imperial military industry, but the money earned will go to my pocket." ”

"It's different. These companies are owned by our German entrepreneurs, and Jiang you are a Chinese, aren't you? If a German businessman bought Skoda, Hitler might still say a good job, but Jiang Cheng bought Skoda as a Chinese, and Hitler had to worry about whether he would destroy this arsenal.

Saying that, Jiang Cheng stood up and said, "Indeed, I am Chinese, but I am more of a businessman. And the arsenal in my hands is actually the best choice for the Empire. ”

Seeing that everyone responded to Jiang Cheng's words, Shaht hurriedly continued, "Why do you say that?" ”

Jiang Cheng glanced at him gratefully and said, "My Führer and my friends, I don't know if you have heard of a theory called the catfish effect?" ”

Jiang Cheng didn't wait for the others to answer, and continued: "This theory is about fishermen at sea when they catch sardines, because sardines like to gather together. This causes the lack of oxygen to cause the sardines to die in large numbers, which cannot be sold for a good price, so fishermen will look for carnivorous fish such as catfish and put them in the sardines, and the sardines will swim in fear when they see the catfish. This has led to a decrease in the mortality rate of sardines, and my Führer, I am the catfish in our German military-industrial complex. ”

Hitler shook his head and said, "There is some reason for that. But it is not yet possible to convince me that if I want to put pressure on other military factories, let the Skoda state run the same. ”

Jiang Cheng smiled bitterly: "But my Führer, the inefficiency of the factory under the state-run constitution is also obvious, isn't it?" And under my leadership, Skoda can quickly play his role. ”

Saying that, Jiang Cheng took out a piece of paper and handed it to everyone and said, "This is Skoda's current output, due to the generally stable situation in Europe, most of Skoda's production capacity has been converted to civilian use, and the current output is 3,000 ZH-29 semi-automatic rifles per year, 70,000 Vz.24 rifles per year, ZB-26 light machine guns with an annual output of 10,000, ZB-53 heavy machine guns with an annual output of 2,000 units, 75 howitzers with an annual output of 800 units, 300 tanks per year, and 400 105 howitzers per year. The annual output of 150 howitzers of more than 150 units, the annual output of 700 anti-aircraft guns, and the original production of heavy guns of more than 300 mm have been completely stopped. And most of these cannons are some old models, my Führer, is such an arsenal what you want? ”

Hitler shook his head and said, "If such production is true, it is too low." ”

Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "That's right, but I can issue a military order, and in just one year, I can triple the output of the Skoda Arsenal!" Among them, the production of tanks is not less than 1,000 units, and the ability to produce guns of more than 300 mm has been restored, and at the same time, the production of the same artillery and weapons and equipment as the Empire has been cooperated, making Skoda truly part of the Empire. ”

Thrice!! Hearing this number, everyone was a little surprised, at this time, all the tanks of the German army combined were only more than 3,000, and if Jiang Cheng really did it, then Skoda could produce nearly 1,000 tanks a year, and it was a relatively advanced LT-38 tank, such a temptation was really great.

Hitler touched his chin and thought about it, after all, the arsenal is a place where weapons are produced, if Jiang Cheng can really increase production so much in a year, he can consider it.

Jiang Cheng looked at Hitler like this, knowing that the temptation was not enough, and continued, "And the purchase price of the German army can be half cheaper than now!! ”

This sentence made Hitler's eyes widen, and Schacht hurriedly said, "Jiang, this matter is not a joke, it is a felony to deceive the Führer!" ”

Hitler stretched out his palm to let Shah speak, looked at Jiang Cheng and asked, "Is what you said true?" If you can really do it, I'll let you master the Škoda Arsenal. ”

Jiang Cheng stretched out his hand and said, "I'm willing to swear to God, what I said is true, but it will take me a year." ”

Hitler nodded and said, "Okay, then it's set for February 1940, when your Skoda production and prices can't reach the level you say." ”

Jiang Cheng spread his hands and said, "Then I will return the arsenal to the empire as it is." ”

After Jiang Cheng got Hitler's acquiescence, he walked out of the Chancellery, Schacht caught up and said anxiously, "You are too reckless, where is the Skoda Arsenal so easy to touch, and the military order you have set up, do you really have the confidence to increase production so much and reduce the price so much?" ”

Jiang Cheng smiled confidently, of course Jiang Cheng is confident, at this time, the production capacity of the Skoda Arsenal is only less than seventy percent, and it is also a one-day work system, not to mention anything else, as long as the production capacity is fully opened plus three shifts, the production capacity can be increased to about four times, Jiang Cheng said that three times or less, and after the output increases, the cost will naturally decrease, the only concern is the problem of raw materials, if the supply of raw materials is not timely, even if the arsenal has such a production capacity, it cannot be delivered.

Jiang Cheng patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I still hope to make a lot of money on this." ”

"Don't forget about me when you really make money." A rough voice came from behind Jiang Cheng, and Jiang Cheng looked back, but it was Goering.

Seeing Goering coming, Schacht said a few words and left.

Goering smiled and said, "Jiang, you are so amazing, I couldn't believe it when I knew it, you actually ate such a big factory quietly, you must be able to guarantee to make a lot of money, right?" ”

Jiang Cheng looked at Goering's appearance, and knew that he was a little red, Jiang Cheng rolled his eyes, pulled Goering's arm and said, "Mr. Goering, you know my loyalty to the empire, I finally got over the matter of the arsenal, I actually don't know the bottom of my heart now, and I hope you will say more good things for me in front of the Führer." ”

Goering said with a righteous expression, "Of course it's no problem, are you my friend, your difficulties are my difficulties"

As he spoke, Goering's eyebrows raised, and Jiang Cheng knew that the subtext of this sentence was to say, "If you get rich, then I have to get rich too." Jiang Cheng nodded, raised three fingers, flipped over, and signaled that it was 300,000 imperial marks.

Goering shook his head and said, "Our friendship needs to be strengthened often. ”

Jiang Cheng thought for a while and said, "I hope we can consolidate it once a year." ”

Goering nodded in agreement, hugged Jiang Cheng and said, "Trust me, our friendship will last forever." (To be continued.) )
