Chapter 18 Arms Sales

"Bang, bang."

Several gunshots rang out in the grounds of the military-industrial complex, just a kilometre from the Manchester City base.

Everyone in the base has become accustomed to this kind of sound, and since the establishment of the military industrial group, all kinds of explosions and gunshots have not stopped.

There are 23 official members of the entire military-industrial group, and their composition is extremely complex, including former veterans, military enthusiasts, and CS and other shooter game enthusiasts, and the only thing they have in common is their knowledge of various weapons.

Some people even secretly made their own guns in the original time and space, and it is not difficult for their group of people to make guns, the key is the materials and equipment needed to make weapons, which is a very complicated matter.

After more than a month of discussion, research and rejection, the final decision of the military industrial group to produce flintlock pistols, in addition to being the most advanced weapon at present, is also based on real reality, because it is impossible to produce a modern recumbent reloading gun, and even if it is produced, it will have to be abandoned because of ammunition problems.

Perhaps in the eyes of most ordinary people, the production of guns and ammunition in military weapons should be the easiest, but in fact, the principles involved here are not what ordinary people can think of.

Don't look at a small bullet, it is not easy to produce, just the stamping machine that stamps out the cartridge case through the crowd is not available, and the flintlock pistol bullet is much easier, make a model to pour the melted lead liquid into it, fast production and low cost, is the best choice.

In the weapons test site of the military industrial group, Liu Dongshui was holding a flintlock pistol named 1640 in his hand, and after several consecutive shooting tests, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.

"This gun is not bad, the shooting accuracy is better than the first few times you got it, the key is that the weight is lighter than the original, I think this can start large-scale production, our internal guard and security team members are in urgent need of weapons for daily security maintenance work."

Liu Dongshui, 43 years old, was a regimental cadre of a unit before the crossing, and he is also the highest-ranking soldier in the crossing so far, and the main responsibility of the internal guard team led by him is to be responsible for the internal security of the Manchester City base, with a number of about 20 people.

The original responsibilities of the security team in charge of Chen Wenqing, the executive committee has also made a relevant adjustment, mainly responsible for the patrol work on the perimeter of the Manchester City base and the fight against slaves, the reason why the two teams with the nature of military armed forces were established under the current situation is to prevent the army from becoming a dictatorship when the army is in the hands of one person.

Hearing that Liu Dongshui was quite satisfied with the 1640 test, Yang Guoping, the head of the military industry group, was happy. This middle-aged man from the northeast who is said to have worked in a military industrial unit before crossing over the past month has been under tremendous pressure, in addition to the pressure from the external security team and the internal security team, there is also an imbalance in the internal team members.

If the weapons test is not satisfied, it means that it cannot be mass-produced, and if it cannot be mass-produced, the members of the military industry can only get the basic living allowance of the pit father, and in addition to eating, it has become a luxury to enjoy the few remaining drinks such as cola and beer on the Qianhai Blue Ship.

The team members don't think that the things they got out are not good, but blame the team leader Yang Guoping for being too real, not at all like Lin Youde of the industrial group, who knows how to fight, as the saying goes, crying children have milk to eat, this is not false at all, Lin Youde knew that he proposed to the executive committee to ask for a technical talent allowance, Yang Guoping didn't know and asked for it, how can you make the team members have no opinions.

Now that I hear that Liu Dongshui is satisfied, then my pressure will be less, and when the 1640 flintlock pistol begins to be produced on a large scale, the salaries of the team members will also increase, the living standard will naturally be higher, and there will be fewer complaints.

"Guoping, our internal guard must order 50 guns first, and give you half a month to deliver them?"

'50, you're sure, I'll say it's okay, this gun is not free, you know the rules, after our cost calculation, the cost of each gun is about 6,200 yuan, how about giving you an integer of 6,000 yuan. ‘

Yang Guoping seems to be a little lion-mouthed, and the cost of a flintlock pistol is about a few hundred, which is still the price including labor costs.

Looking at Yang Guoping, a loyal and honest Northeast man with an honest appearance, Liu Dongshui's eyes simply had a feeling of hating iron and steel, and he dared to open it at such a high price.

"Are you sure this gun needs 6,000, do you know how much an AK will cost in the future, the number of more than 100 is less than 300 US dollars, which is converted into more than 1,000 yuan, do you know how to grab money?"

"Lao Liu, you can't blame me, I belong to the high-tech industry, haven't you heard this sentence that is often on the lips of other people's industrial groups, I am too, if you don't want me, I will go to Chen Wenqing of the security team, they will definitely buy it, I still show you the goods first based on the friendship between the two of us."

Liu Dongshui rubbed his head, what Yang Guoping said was indeed true, unlike the security team, the internal security team is responsible for the security work in the base, and there is basically no way to make money, and the other security team is different, as long as the lack of manpower of the group directly places orders with them, the security team will directly dispatch to catch the natives and sell them back to the teams.

"Okay, if you say six thousand, it's six thousand." Liu Dongshui thought for a while and finally agreed, because he had already thought of a way to make money, such as collecting public security maintenance fees from each group, and when he went back, it would be like the executive committee submitting a report, and I believe the committee members would agree, which saved a lot of money for the executive committee, and the executive committee could also save some of the allocation.

After Liu Dongshui finished the order, Yang Guoping took the 1640 flintlock pistol and ran to the station of the security group, directly found Chen Wenqing, and recommended to him the only product of the military industry group at present, and specifically mentioned that Liu Dongshui said that it was good, and he also ordered 50 pieces. Liu Dongshui said that good things can be bad, and the first few times the military industrial team also came out with a few guns, and the tests were all Liu Dongshui, and Chen Wenqing knew that the final result was that Liu Dongshui was not satisfied.

Now he is satisfied with this flintlock pistol, it must be no problem, and he immediately agreed to order 100 pieces.

With Chen Wenqing's order, Yang Guoping couldn't close his mouth with a smile, and secretly said in his heart, this time our military industry team has finally turned over and become the master, and we will never be shy for a bottle of Coke in the future.

On the way back to the military engineering group's station, Yang Guoping, a man in his thirties, jumped up and down like a child, causing the unwitting traversers to sigh, this old Yang would not have become mentally ill because he couldn't afford to buy a bottle of Coke, or he would have invited him to drink a bottle.

looked at Yang Guoping, who jumped back to the office. Wang Tiezhu said with a smile, "Xiao Yang is so Yaxing, it seems that there is something happy about it, I don't know how you got our navy's shipborne guns, and when will they be delivered." ”

Hearing Wang Tiezhu's words, Yang Guoping's bright face instantly turned gray: "That, then, we have been making guns all this time, you are waiting, I promise to give you a satisfactory answer in a week." Originally, Yang Guoping wanted to talk about a month later, but when he thought of Lao Wang's temper, he said it directly for a week.

"Well, I'll test it in a week."

After Wang Tiezhu finished speaking, he walked towards the door, leaving only Yang Guoping, who was in a daze, looking at the back in the distance, scolding himself vigorously.

"Damn, damn it, I'm really getting carried away, how did I get the cannon out in a week, and this time I'm going to be resented again."
