Chapter 74: Prepare to arm

[74] Prepare to arm

Yao's father also has good news here, the company license he asked his friend Wu Weiye to apply for has come down, and a total of 20,000 yuan has been spent. The company is registered in the Cayman Islands, and its name is Global Trade Aluminum Company, the reason why it is given such a name is because there are too many companies registered in this tax haven.

Yao Fan doesn't mind what the name of the company is, it is just a chicken-and-egg business, as long as the company is registered abroad, and then as long as he applies for an arms import license from any country, then he can purchase from a domestic company with arms export qualifications.

As for the process, Yao Fan also thought about it, due to the particularity of arms exports, the first step is to accept and pack the transportation and customs declaration after the relevant personnel control, after the customs declaration is completed, enter the designated warehouse at the port, and get the other party to confirm that the packaging is non-destructive, and after acceptance, it will be indirectly delivered. The other way is direct delivery, which means that the exporting country transports the weapons to the port of destination and then delivers them, and Yao Fan certainly does not choose the latter option.

But the former is not easy to confuse, because modern merchant ships are equipped with globally networked ship tracking records, globally networked cargo transportation handover orders, and the destination port does not receive containers, which cannot be fooled.

But Yao Fan didn't think so, he naturally had a way.

Yao Fan took advantage of the absence of his mother Li Hongmei to discuss with Yao Peng what he had done during the Qing Dynasty: "Dad, I need a weapons import license next, South American countries and African countries are fine, I need weapons for self-protection." ”

Yao Peng had such an awareness during this time, but he didn't expect Yao Fan to start so soon, and he fell silent for a while.

Yao Fan saw that Yao Peng did not speak, and continued to persuade: "The late Qing Dynasty was reactionary, dark and rotten, and the eldest husband held authority and did not reverse it, and it was recorded in the history pen, and it was left behind for thousands of years. ”

"But how long have you only been in the past, this is going to be an armed struggle, Fanfan, it's not that Dad doesn't support you, it's just that this matter is too dangerous and needs to be considered in the long run." Yao Peng frowned.

"Daddy! The husband is fierce, and people are afraid of it, so the fire is not extinguished; If the water is cowardly, and people play with it, the water will never be peaceful. In the Qing Dynasty, my own weakness will only be regarded as a fat sheep, I have the ambition to cleanse the world's injustice, and I can't do without the power to cleanse the world's injustice! Yao Fan said.

"You don't drag the text with me, I guessed that you want to oppose the Qing Dynasty, but you are only a township warrior group training now, and you have transported weapons, I am afraid that you will not be able to cover it." Brahman, you have to remember that those who are not rich in feathers cannot fly high, and those who are not morally good cannot make the people. ”

Yao Fan hurriedly said: "In the past, the Yellow Emperor cut down and captured Chiyou, Yao cut Huandou, Shun cut the three seedlings, Yu cut Gonggong, Tang cut Youxia, King Wen cut Chong, King Wu cut the Xuan, ancient and modern 5,000 years, 90,000 miles at home and abroad, righteousness and injustice, do you have to fight to eliminate evil?" ”

"You kid, you are too anxious, there are three hundred years of Qing Dynasty, deep-rooted, can you get rid of it in one day?" Yao Peng is still not at ease.

"I didn't say that I hope to achieve it overnight, but the sooner you raise the dead and the armor is strong, the better, otherwise you will be exposed and you will die without a place!" Yao Fan said resolutely.

Yao Peng was moved by his son's words, thought for a long time, and sighed: "Your Uncle Wu has professional licenses at home and abroad, and knows many people who do business in Africa and South America, as long as you are willing to spend money, it is not difficult to obtain an import license for light weapons, but how can you steal the beams and change the pillars?" ”

Yao Fan was overjoyed when he saw his father's promise, and said in his ear: "It's just like this, so ......."

When Yao Peng helped his son make preliminary preparations, Yao Fan also began to actively procure, first of all, he rented all the warehouse area at a fixed price, and if there was anything that had been rented, he would double the rent. After paying 4ooo yuan, it suddenly owned 160,000 square meters, including the right to use the reservoir area of two blocks for one year.

Previously, only 10,000 umbrellas were purchased for trial sales, but this time Yao Fan purchased 1 million, with a total value of 14oo according to the price of 14 yuan each.

A million fountain pens of various styles were purchased. These pens have plastic and iron caps; There are all kinds of pure colors of the full plastic shell; There are all-stainless steel bodies; There are carved reliefs; There are iron sheets, galvanized with yellow plating, blue plating, and black plating; with lacquer printing patterns; Prices range from 1.5 yuan to 4o yuan. Plus a million bottles of ink, it cost 10 million yuan.

You must know that at this time in the West, fountain pens are still office utensils that are inconvenient to carry. Generally speaking, it is inserted in the pen holder on the table, and when it is used, it is withdrawn, and the way to use it is to write one or two lines, and then dip it in the ink in the bottle, and then continue to write. A small number of nobles carried a fine product is the use of a back pipe for water supply, and when writing, it is often necessary to press an ugly glass piston tube behind the pen, and if you are not careful, it will be a mess.

Even if it seems so inconvenient today, the West loved it at the time, after all, it was much better than a quill pen, and it was also thanks to the Englishman James Perry's improvement of the nib in 183o. It wasn't until 1884 that the American Waterman understood that the capillary absorbs water, and the first half of the fountain pen was considered finalized, and the second half was still a piston tube. It was not until 1913 that rubber bile tubes were used, and the plastic piston tubes of some fountain pens today are inherited from the old-fashioned piston ink supply method after the progress of modern manufacturing processes.

Although stainless steel only came out in 1912, Yao Fan couldn't take care of it, and still purchased a lot of stainless steel pen sleeves for fountain pens, after all, he made the most money at the moment.

Then there are dyes of various colors, for cotton cloth and silk, according to an average of 5o yuan per kilogram, 1oo tons were purchased, all packed in 3o kg or 5o kg iron drums, with a total price of 5oo yuan.

Synthetic dyes are an area that Yao Fan has always wanted to get involved in, an industry that has benefited from the increase in the world's steelmaking capacity, resulting in a large amount of tar, a by-product of coking.

Britain was dismissive of the synthetic dye industry because it could obtain natural dyes from colonies all over the world, but Germany, which lacked colonial resources, was much more struggling, spending millions of pounds a year to buy indigo and dyed woody plants from the British. Therefore, when the Germans saw the huge business opportunities in aniline dyes, they immediately firmly focused on this lucrative business, and worked hard to research and produce, and by 1877, Germany had accounted for half of the world's synthetic dye production, and by 1913, it accounted for 8o%!

Yao Fan knew that due to the vigorous exhibition of Friedrich Bayer's Baden aniline and soda factory, there were more than 6ooo workers! This led to the merger of the surrounding 4 townships to become today's Leverkusen. There are three main products of the factory, one is alizarin, a refreshing red color that is slightly darker than pink; the second is eosin, a crimson that resembles the red walls of the Forbidden City or coagulated plasma; The third is Yin Dan Shilin, which is the sky-blue top-top school uniform of female students in the Republic of China that is common on TV. Among them, this is especially Yindanshilin, because this cyan blue is particularly fresh and elegant, and it is sold all over the world.

"In 1875, the production capacity of synthetic dyes in Germany was only one or two thousand tons, right? It can only produce aniline yellow, red, green, purple and akane red, and it took 19oo years to realize the artificial synthesis of indigo. Will the German Hans be annoyed? Yao Fan couldn't eat it either.

"Let this world be a little more colorful......" Yao Fan sighed.

Then there are 100,000 Phoenix, Permanent, Guangming and other brands of all-steel agricultural 28 bicycles, these bicycles are the same size, all spare parts are common, 3oo yuan each, the total price is 3ooo million. 10,000 human-powered tricycles, with an average of 5oo yuan per unit and a total price of 5oo yuan.

"At the end of the 19th century, with the industrial production of steel chains, ball bearings, steel gears, saddle springs, Dunlop pneumatic tires, Coventry, England became the world's bicycle manufacturing center, since I hit Leverkusen, it is not ...... to be eccentric to British cattle cows"

Then there are 10,000 desktop foot sewing machines, each of which is 3oo yuan, with a total price of 3oo yuan.

According to Yao Fan's access to the library archives, the Englishman Thomas Sette and the Frenchman Demone first understood the prototype of the sewing machine, but the manufacturing level was too poor and no one cared about it, and the American Walter Hunt made improvements, but it was still not ideal.

It wasn't until the American Elias applied for and owned a patent for a sewing machine in 1846 that the sewing machine was roughly finalized. It's just that his machine can't be turned during the sewing process.

Singer, an American who improved Elias's sewing machine to a foot-operated one and could turn at will in sewing, made sewing machines through guò, and by 1863 he had a fortune of $130,000, only to lose to Elias in a patent lawsuit and quit the sewing machine industry.

From then on, Elias began to collect compensatory royalties awarded by the court, and by the last year of 1895, Elias was able to receive $4o in compensatory royalties for that year.

In the 19th century, the British patent law ruled that the patent had a term of 7 years, and the Germans repeatedly filed antitrust judgments to invalidate various patents for the convenience of copycats.

The Americans, on the other hand, did not have a term of patent protection at all, so as to attract European masters to immigrate to the United States after the expiration of their patents, so that later generations commented that during this period, "most of the patents granted by the United States were worthless, invalid, and conflicted with the patent rights of others." Competition cases such as plagiarism and fraud are increasing day by day, and the legislative spirit of the Patent Law has been severely attacked.

What's more, in the early 45 years of the U.S. patent law, none of the 9,225 patents were granted to foreigners...... This was not commensurate with Britain's leading position in world industry at that time! In fact, the vast majority of U.S. patents during this period were naked plagiarism of patents in the United Kingdom and European countries, in order to put on a legal cloak for their own copycats. This also leads the domestic capitalists in the United States to hold high the banner of anti-monopoly appeals in order to overturn a domestic patent, and after success, they can carry out production in a grand manner.

"These foot-operated sewing machines of mine seem to be at risk of patent disputes, and the trade protection of European and American countries is so fierce, I hope that there will be no ......accidents for export and domestic sales," Yao Fan thought.
