Chapter Eighty-Six: Who Earned It? (Supplement)
For this rising star in the military world, who was also born in the aristocracy, the eyes of help cast for help, Laura was actually taken aback by Xu Bin's offer. It's really not cheap to buy a warship design drawing at this price, but Xu Bin's reason for saying it is really good. And he knows that if this kind of drawing really falls into the hands of the people of the United States, it will undoubtedly be a catastrophic challenge for the current naval power, Eagle State.
Laura, who really couldn't refuse this rising star in the military world, had no choice but to say: "General Xu, first of all, please believe in the sincerity of the Eagle Country government for your design purchase. But the price is indeed a bit high, and we really can't be such a big master.
If you ask the domestic government for instructions, it will take a long time. It's also bad for you who are in dire need of money and development time. Why don't you lower the price a little lower? ”
In fact, Xu Bin also knows that the price is a bit ruthless, but it is rare to meet a 'big tyrant' who does not make a knock, and he is really sorry for the valuable network wealth he brought over!
Pretending to be a little embarrassed, he said, "Then what kind of conditions can you accept?" ”
Taking the initiative to reduce the price is undoubtedly a low-level negotiation strategy, so Xu Bin still decided to let the other party make a price, and he is slowly raising the price to negotiate the most appropriate. Anyway, his ideal psychological price is to be able to exchange for 10,000 light machine guns and 1 million pounds in cash, and he can basically sell the two drawings that took two nights to draw.
Laura, who thought that Xu Bin had given himself face like this, was grateful in his heart and signaled again that his face had run out. Next, how to talk will depend on the military attache and these official representatives.
After some haggling, Xu Bin accepted the design fee of 2.8 million pounds like a defeated rooster, as well as a 5 million interest-free instalment loan from Eagle Nation, with a repayment period limited to five years. For this condition, the people of the Eagle Country present felt that they could accept it, especially when they saw Xu Bin's bitter melon-like expression, they felt that their bargaining skills had indeed been harmed. I believe that after returning to China this time, I will be able to get a lot of domestic commendations!
In fact, they knew that Xu Bin's heart would have bloomed with laughter a long time ago, if it weren't for the sake of fooling these foreign devils. I guess I've been rolling on the bed with my stomach in my arms for a long time!
The two drawings were exchanged for a light machine gun that was enough to equip an army unit of 200,000 people, and it was also exchanged for nearly 100 million Longyang's start-up costs, so it's no wonder if you are unhappy!
It can be seen that Xu Bin finally took out the drawings, and after Greenbland confirmed, the price of these drawings far exceeded his expectations. This is a time when it is impossible to describe the naval strength of the Eagle Nation in terms of money. These Eagle people who came to negotiate felt that they had made a lot of money, and Zuihou or Laura felt embarrassed, and after discussing it with the military attaché.
He also added some Debang-made arms that were now backlogged in Longhua that could not be sold, and a total of weapons and ammunition that could equip a regiment to express his sincerity. In this regard, Xu Bin, who was still depressed and depressed just now, his face improved slightly.
Leaving the matter of signing the contract to Laura, Harry said that when Xu Bin needs the protection of the Eagle Kingdom in the future, he can also go to the Eagle Nation Consulate in Hero City for help at any time. And in order to protect Xu Bin's interests in Gannan, Harry also made a special statement to Gannan's consulate that he must befriend the leader of the Longhua rebel army who sent him a great credit.
Send away these stupid tyrants with excited faces, and Xu Bin, who doesn't have to worry about funds, directly hand over Laura 800,000 pounds to build an industrial base for him, which is enough to make him a first-class arms dealer in Gannan. In addition, he also asked Laura to find some retired artillery professional officers from the German Union for him, and at the same time purchased some second-hand cannons that were confiscated by various countries.
For this business order, which has increased by four times in the blink of an eye, Laura naturally will not refuse. It's rare to come to Longhua Kingdom, if you don't come up with some achievements to return to China, how can he come all the way here to get started?
Moreover, with this drawing transaction, Laura can fully believe that Xu Bin, the anti-government leader who is still weak for the time being, has entered the sight of the Eagle Country government. Especially his troops, which are still in the interest zone occupied by the people of the United States, must be secretly sneering to cheer for Xu Bin!
This is a good thing that can make money and bring reputation, how could Laura refuse? Soon, the father and son, who had lived in Lianbing Mountain for a few days and went around Orange City, soon left Orange City by boat under the congratulations of the military and political officials of Orange City. Leaving with them was Tian Youliang, who began to serve as the intelligence minister of the Xu Jiajun.
Tian Youliang, who had already entered the inner circle of the Xu family's army, soon left with the ship after accepting Xu Bin's task, with a lot of start-up funds and soldiers from the army who were suitable for intelligence work. While they are responsible for intelligence gathering in various places, they also need to take on the heavy responsibility of protecting the safety of Booker and his son.
Although in these years, no one dares to kill foreign devils casually, it is difficult to ensure that some outlaws dare to kill people desperately for money. In this regard, for the time being, Booker is still needed to take care of business affairs for himself, and Xu Bin naturally will not easily let them be in any danger.
Sent away Booker's father and son, Xu Bin, who was not short of money for the time being, was with his second uncle and other backbones of the Xu family army who had grown up. It was decided to make a big deal and come from the Linzhou Mansion in the name of recruiting workers, and to give five Longyang a handsome remuneration for settling in, and recruit 2,000 school-age youths for military training at one time.
Coupled with the 2,000 new and old Xu Jiajun soldiers who have been expanded before, it can basically be achieved to the extent that a veteran leads a new soldier. And the Xu family battalion directly crossed the regiment from the beginning, and suddenly became the Xu family independent brigade. Xu Bin, the young battalion commander, became the brigade commander as soon as he became the brigade commander. This promotion is really fast enough!
For this kind of regular army of Longhua State, most of them use the establishment of companies, battalions, regiments, divisions, armies, and corps, and the establishment of brigades is also the first of the Xu Jiajun. So much so that later, when many domestic regular armies heard about the establishment of several brigades of the Xu Jiajun, they could not figure out whether to meet the battle with regimental-level troops or division-level formations.
The separate brigade has three regiments, a guard company, plus an artillery brigade, and a logistics equipment brigade. Each infantry regiment is subordinate to three battalions, and the total number of personnel is limited to less than 1,200 men, and the three-three system is also adopted below the battalion level. Except for the regimental commander-in-chief, all battalion-level officers adopt the deputy system.
Looking at the recruits who have been stationed in the training mountain one after another, those recruits who have just become veterans have finally tasted the taste of veterans. Directing the training of those recruits every day has also become their greatest pleasure. And those who have not experienced the test of tearing up in the later period will also be adopted by the veteran company in a one-on-one approach. Continue to expand the name of a swarm of bees to the entire Linzhou capital towns.
For a time, those landlords and old fortunes who had done a lot of evil also hid in the city to avoid the limelight for a while, for fear of being targeted by a swarm of bees, not to mention the raid of their family wealth, and they would also give you a liquidation at every turn.
If the money is gone, it hurts, and if the life is gone, then there is nothing. And the people, who are not oppressed by these landlords and old wealth, secretly describe a swarm of bees as heroes in the green forest with a thin sky of righteousness, and they have their existence. Those landlords and old fortunes who hid in the city would not appear at the head of their village twice in three days to squeeze the fruits of their hard work.
The work of training and actual combat is handed over to Li Chengbing, Wang Erscar, who can already stand alone, and Chen Zhengdao are in charge, and the second uncle and Bai Mulan, who likes to manage money and be a housekeeper, are in charge of logistics matters. Xu Bin paid more attention to building an industrial logistics base and expanding the village-level joint defense of the Xu family.
When Juxiang City was crowded with frightened landlords and old wealth, Xu Jiajun's village-level joint defense team was also publicized by the people of Baofeng Town, and gradually developed in Juxiang City like a plague. Looking at the seven towns and five townships under the jurisdiction of Orange City, there is now only one town close to Linzhou Capital, which has not completely fallen for the time being.
In other townships, as long as the number of people exceeds 100, a joint defense team of at least 10 people has been established. These were selected from Xu Jiajun to serve as members of the propaganda team to propagate and agitate, and became loyal supporters of Xu Jiajun. Those landlords and thugs who did not dare to go out of the city, but sent a family guard to collect rent, were seized as soon as they came out.
Seeing that the situation in Orange City was almost out of control, the county magistrate and the city defense battalion commander of Orange City finally couldn't help but ask the state government for help, hoping that the state government could send a large army to relieve this situation.
After the prefect of Linzhou Mansion bargained with the head of the security regiment, and received a lot of benefits from the landlords and officials of Baoxiang City, the security regiment of Linzhou Prefecture has been in a state of protecting the city.
Finally, a combat force of 500 people was dispatched, and Xie arrived in Orange City with two antique-level cannons, preparing to cooperate with the city defense battalion and the joint sweeping team put together by these landlords to march into Baofeng Town to deal with the bandit forces that had put Orange City in a state of chaos.
Xu Bin, who was worried about the completion of recruit training and had no big war training, learned that the united army was out of the city. It was quickly decided to take this opportunity to take Orange City in one fell swoop. Anyway, according to the information from the intelligence station in Hero City, the revolutionary army, which is currently on the front line in southern Gannan, has already increased its troops. Presumably, the governor who was attacked on several sides would not spend too much money against them, right?
Besides, Xu Bin has already decided to take Jude City and stuff some money for the two high-ranking military and political officials in Linzhou Mansion, and at the same time let Laura, a nobleman from the Eagle Kingdom, come forward and buy a Juxiangcheng county magistrate and city defense battalion commander for himself, shouldn't it be a problem? After all, the Gannan chaos has been revealed, and it is safer to make more money in your hands!
