Chapter 81: Lack of Money Again!

When Xu Bin, who was protected by a group of guards, appeared in front of Booker, Booker, who didn't make any money last time he went back, but finally didn't lose all his money. When he reported to his family that he met the leader of an anti-government army in Gannan Province in Longhua Kingdom, he offered to buy a rusty weapon production line piled up in the warehouse for one million dragon oceans.

He went from being a fool to being ridiculed when he came home to being the object of praise from the elders of the family. In the current situation where Shijie has returned to calm, there is no doubt that Booker can pay someone to buy this kind of arms production line that they have a hard time selling, and Booker is undoubtedly the hero of the family.

Especially in the current situation that most of the arms market in Longhua is monopolized by some big families, Booker was able to sell such a batch of arms, and also sold this arms production line by the way, which made the patriarch of the Ellen family, whose business has not been able to expand, specially instructed Booker's father to accompany him. I hope that this side cadre, who has been in the family business for many years, will personally see for himself whether the rebel leader Booker has befriended has the potential to be wooed or invested.

Looking at her son and a young man younger than Booker, hugging warmly, although she already knew on the way that the leader of the rebel army in her son's mouth was very young, Laura was still shocked by Xu Bin's youth.

When Buke introduced his father to Xu Bin, Xu Bin also said enthusiastically: "Uncle, welcome to Longhua, this journey is fortunate, let's go back to the base and talk again." As for these goods, my subordinates are in charge, and there will be no problems. ”

The work of unloading was handed over to Li Chengbing, who had the most stable personality, and Xu Bin, who had already cleared out the cave, only needed to transport all the machinery contained in these wooden boxes to the cave. Find a suitable opportunity and then assemble it, and I believe there will be no problem. The most important thing now is that he needs to discuss with Booker and bring in Jihua.

When meeting with Booker and his son, Xu Bin had already discussed with Uncle Du, who had returned to the base to take up a post, to recruit some German jobs and veterans who came to China to find jobs. These Debang nationals, who had to travel across the sea to seek jobs because of the defeat of the war, were the first batch of jishu workers that Xu Bin wanted to recruit.

Of course, he is also willing to recruit Haode veteran officers. Because in his opinion, the fate of the German state is very similar to that of Germany on the earth in the previous life. Although they were defeated, their army officers and technicians had a wealth of professional experience. This is undoubtedly an urgent need for recruitment for Xu Jiajun, who is in a state of poverty and whiteness in both the officer corps and the worker corps.

He hoped that with the help of these outstanding talents introduced, he would cultivate the first batch of officers and technicians who were loyal to Xu Jiajun and him. Of course, for an arsenal to officially enter operation, it is certainly not possible to rely on some foreigners alone. Therefore, some time ago, Xu Bin sent Uncle Du to Jiangdu City to recruit some Jiangdu Arsenal technicians who had nothing to do. It is hoped that this team of Longhua Guojia foreign technicians will be adopted to make some of the best weapons he knows as much as possible.

When the father and son followed the enthusiastic Xu Bin to the rebuilt barracks in the old land, they looked at the soldiers who were preparing to go out in the dark. The father and son also had a little more interest in appreciating these young and energetic soldiers of the Xu family.

When he learned that in less than half a year, the Xu family army trained by Xu Bin had expanded from more than 100 people at the beginning to nearly 2,000 now, Booker couldn't help but sigh, there are really a lot of people in Longhua. As long as you have money and guns, you can casually expand the number of troops of one regiment and one division if you give a little time.

It is no wonder that Xu Bin dared to buy enough arms and weapons to equip a division when there were more than 100 people. It turns out that he has been prepared for a long time!

Only Laura, who has been in contact with the regular army of Longhua State, from the mental state of these soldiers, as well as the military subjects of training. saw an army of Longhua that was completely different from what he knew, so he quickly became interested in Xu Bin. He knew that these soldiers who were training for morning exercises were not like other warlords in Longhua Kingdom, most of them were strong and strong, and many soldiers had an aversion to training.

But on the faces of these Xu Jiajun soldiers, Laura couldn't see this kind of boredom and eyes. And he found that these soldiers would obey the orders of the officers without resistance. This kind of training scene, which is more like a regular army than the regular army, makes Laura really realize that if this young man is given some time to develop, maybe he can really break through the world in this vast but divided Longhua country.

Even if this young man can't become the top political figure in this Longhua country, and can become a warlord of one side, it is also a very great thing for their family. After all, the area of Longhua is too large and the population is even larger, even the area of Gannan Province is equivalent to some ordinary Latin American countries.

Accompanied the father and son to watch the scene of soldier training for a while, considering that the two fathers did not sleep all night, Xu Bin personally led them to live in the newly built Haode barracks. They found a double room for their father and son, so that they could rest in it with peace of mind, and if they needed anything, they could always ask the soldiers outside to help them provide it.

After settling the father and son, Xu Bin took the list of goods provided by Booker and began to open the box and count the goods. It stands to reason that Booker should be called together at this time, but Booker seems to be very confident that Xu Bin will not intentionally embarrass him. Moreover, buying this production line for a million is largely about the same as the price of scrap iron.

Xu Bin, who just opened a few boxes and checked the equipment, felt a little embarrassed again. Because he found that although the equipment was a little old, the workers of Debang State kept it very well. Many machines packed in boxes can be seen grease lubricated on the shafts.

The only headache is that most of these devices require electricity, which means that Xu Bin needs to build a power plant to officially put the production line into operation. In addition to the power plant, he also needed to build a steel forging plant when steel was a military material.

As soon as these supporting factories are calculated, I am afraid that they will not be able to play a role without millions of Longyang. For a while, Xu Bin began to worry about his purse again.

To build a small industrial base, the capital required is often several times or even dozens of times that of military expansion. So much so that at present, there are very few warlords in Longhua who can raise an arsenal. Although the Longhua Kingdom of this time and space has a stronger industrial base than the Earth Republic in the previous life.

But those factories established in the early years have either become enterprises acquired by foreigners, or they have been shut down and are running half-dead. Warlords, who are bent on expanding their armaments, prefer to spend the money they spend on industry to expand their armies. As for weapons and equipment, as long as there is money, they can be bought from foreigners, and it is typical to buy it rather than to buy it.

In the face of the operation of the production line, the supporting factories needed were exemplified by Xu Bin one by one, and he knew that it would cost him more than half a year of accumulated funds. It seems that there is no suitable economic source, and it is indeed a bit unreliable to make money by this kind of robbery alone. But what can I do if it's not reliable? He even has to hide here to train a soldier, and he can't rob the banks and money banks of the countries with the most money in this year, right?

When Xu Jiajun did not have a fixed tax collection territory, he had to be ruthless and carry out the action of defeating the local tyrants and inferior gentry to the end. Anyway, in his opinion, the money of those local tyrants and inferior gentry is the people's fat and people's ointment, and he spends the money from the robbery on the construction of industries and the army, which can be regarded as taking from the people for the people.

When that day he can really straighten his waist and set up Xu Jiajun's signboard, so that others dare not provoke easily. Maybe he can have some regular financial income!

Especially when he remembered that when he went to the Hero City and saw those local tyrants and inferior gentry taking the money from the people to suck the kind of sprouts that were enough to break the backbone of a nation, Xu Bin felt that he would not feel any trouble when he killed a few more local tyrants and inferior gentry. Therefore, when he was thinking that the money in the bag was not enough, he once again turned his eyes to those local tyrants and inferior gentry.

So much so that in the future, when Xu Jiajun truly achieved the unification of the world, later historians also said that Xu Jiajun's development path was completely based on killing and blood. Of course, this is all an afterthought, Xu Bin, who is in a hurry for money, can only think of this way for the time being.

However, there is a saying that there are always more ways than difficulties, in addition to robbing those local tyrants and inferior gentry, Xu Bin also began to recall what he can do now, and not affect the attention of others, in exchange for a large amount of wealth?

I suddenly remembered some YY military novels I had read in my previous life, and those protagonists with halos on their heads relied on their genius-like memory to exchange drawings with the great inventions of later generations for much-needed funds. Xu Bin also began to think about whether he could also plagiarize.

Let's see if he can use some of the weapon drawings he knows in his head to make some deals with this merchant who is said to have shili in Eagle Country? Among other things, as far as he knew, he could draw several drawings of light machine guns that were not yet available. There are also small rifles AK 47, as large as Tiger tanks and even dreadnought-class destroyers, and he has drawn corresponding drawings.

Although the big thing can't be completely drawn with the corresponding drawings, he can still remember the shape and the corresponding parameters. If these things can really exchange some wealth for him, maybe he should really be grateful for the certain net that he looked at when he sat in the bureau and had nothing to do. Let him write down a lot of weapon parameters that the author has carefully collected from those military novels!
