51. Acting
"Comrade Valina, it's been beautiful again recently, it seems that the climate here is very suitable for you!"
Qin Lang said with a smile on his face.
The Border Trade Commission has built a nice building, and the snow melts from the mountains and is diverted to the swimming pool next to it. Even on a hot summer day, it's cool all around.
"Oh, Commander Qin! How can I have time to come to see my old wife today, and I hope that the next time we meet, I will not come to my funeral. ”
Valina had a smile on her face, but she was gritting her teeth.
Qin Lang smiled slightly.
"Don't be angry, infrastructure is being built everywhere, and I'm also a gray trouser hem! Valina, do you believe what I'm going to buy this time? ”
The navy needed torpedoes, and after the last operation, Qin Lang hurriedly contacted Valina, hoping to buy a batch.
At this time, there were only a few countries that could produce torpedoes, and France, Japan, and Britain should not think about it. The Germans only sold materials, and they were obsolete things from the First World War. As for Citigroup's torpedo ......, Qin Lang was scared when he thought about it
In the end, the Soviet family can be counted on, but its torpedo has a fatal problem, the journey is too short, only about 3700 meters, but it is powerful, and even the cruiser has to lie down if it hits a shot.
However, the Navy's torpedo boats are all imported from Citi, and in order to only seek high speed and comfort, its shell is made of double-layer pine. In fact, the bulletproof ability of the speedboat is not bad, but when it rushes to such a close distance, it is not beaten into a hornet's nest by rapid-fire guns.
Valina snorted coldly.
"I thought Master Qin was coming to visit the slave family, but I didn't expect it to be for official business, and the slave family is so miserable!"
Hearing these words in Chinese, Qin Lang had goosebumps on his body.
"Slow, who did you learn from, let me tremble for a while!"
Valina punched him.
"Hmph, something without conscience, this is the information you want!"
Qin Lang laughed a few times, just flipped through a few pages, and then threw it on the table.
"I thought that the Workers' and Peasants' Party in the world was one family, but now it is also treated differently!"
This time it was a 450-mm torpedo, which could not be said to be advanced in World War I.
Valina whispered:
"This is also something that cannot be helped, the quality of the 533-mm torpedo designed by ourselves is not up to par, it will not explode if it hits, or it will explode early, which is too dangerous."
Qin Lang patted his head.
The weapons of the Soviet Navy of this era were also not advanced, although many things were designed, and in the end only failures were verified.
"You bought the materials from Italy!"
Italy was hacked badly in the later generations, but its industrial level, especially the navy, could not be ignored as a country capable of building battleships.
Valina jumped up suddenly, as if a few horns suddenly appeared on Qin Lang's head.
"You ......, how do you know?"
Qin Lang was also stunned, of course this kind of transaction would not be made public, and most of the time it was done in private.
He didn't want to explain anything, though, just smiled incomprehensibly.
"You don't care about this, I'm very interested in this information, would you like to copy it to us? I can pay half the price. At the same time 450 mm torpedoes, I also want fifty rounds. ”
Valina turned pale.
This time she went to Italy to buy technology, and she went as the leader of the trade commission, in addition to spying on certain people, she also had to find a way to smooth something.
Who knew that there was no impermeable wall in the world, and only a few days after returning to China, such a secret action was known by Qin Lang. For a while, she didn't know what to say, she only felt that she had mixed feelings in her heart, and finally became jealous.
"Qin Lang......."
However, she soon noticed that a piece of paper appeared in the other person's hand, on which were written a few letters.
"Escalate!"
She almost spoke, but her mouth was immediately covered by the other party.
"Smack!"
Valina slapped herself on the forehead.
"Comrade Qin Lang, this matter involves the secrets of the Soviet Union, and I cannot agree to it privately. But I have a request, you have to tell how the information came from, and I will report it to the NKVD. ”
Qin Lang's voice was a little more "frightened." ”
"Comrade Valina, you just need to know about this matter, and you don't need to report it so troublesomely."
Valina said in a firm tone:
"Comrade Qin Lang, friendship is friendship, principle is principle, I must figure out this matter, otherwise the Soviet Union will be hurt by the hidden enemy. As a member of the Workers' and Peasants' International, I would like you to make it clear where the source of the information is. ”
Qin Lang gestured "OK" to her, and said with a stumbling mouth:
"Our comrades at Citi want to buy materials for torpedoes. You know, those imperialist capitalists, what kind of price they offered, naturally in the end, they did not negotiate.
Originally, the Citimen were leaving, but one of them said in a mocking tone, go buy Italian, the Soviets just bought it, you can buy it too! ”
"Whew!"
Valina added these quick writes on paper.
"That's all for Comrade Qin Lang?"
Qin Lang whispered:
"Of course, Comrade Valina, this is revealed for the sake of friendship with you. If someone asked, I would never say a word. ”
Valina winked at Qin Lang, and said in a stern tone in her mouth:
"Comrade Qin Lang, we are a member of the big family, and I hope you can share this information, otherwise the Soviet Union will suffer serious losses."
Qin Lang said helplessly:
"There is a lot of this kind of news, and it is impossible to verify the authenticity at all, otherwise those despicable capitalists will release ten of them every day, and we won't have to do anything."
It was only then that Valina changed her smiling face.
"Thank you for the information, I'll report to Moscow now."
Qin Lang looked at her back as she left, and a smile appeared on his face.
At this time, the shadow of the sun has already slanted westward, and if you should get the information, you should get it!
Sure enough, Valina's message was still being delivered, and Stalin was already holding the message, smoking his pipe angrily.
"Yezhov, what do you think should be done?"
Yezhov was taken aback, today Stalin was really angry, and he didn't even say a word comrade.
"Comrade Stalin, our interior has been infiltrated by evil capitalists, and we must take decisive measures to clear it, otherwise the Soviet edifice will collapse."
As soon as Stalin's right hand was forced, the paper was crumpled.
"I agree with you, it's time to clean it up."
A smile appeared on Yezhov's face.
"Comrade Stalin, please give me this task, and I will definitely hand over a satisfactory answer!"
Staling paced a few steps around the room, but waved his hand fiercely.
"No, it's not the time yet!"
