Chapter 420: Battlecruisers
"Boss Long, do you think Chen Baxian will agree to exchange the game currency for points? If he secretly converts the game currency into a large number of game points for the sake of real reputation, we will be much less stressed. Zhuge Kuntian asked Xuanyuan Sword Dao.
Xuanyuan Jian shook his head and said, "It's hard to say! With the wealth that Chen Baxian now has in the game, there are a lot of game points that can be redeemed. Redeeming points will improve his real status, but it will let people know who he is, which I think he doesn't want to do. But every gamer, who knows if he has the concept of sacrificing for the country? Maybe the people he was sent to change as soon as he was fooled by the national righteousness. ”
Zhuge Kuntian sighed and said: "At present, our Huaxia game points rank more than 20 in the world, and many ordinary players are squeezing out their own small game coins to buy points and donate them to the country, but I heard that the department in charge of game points is tired, and some people secretly sell the points donated by players abroad." ”
Xuanyuan Jian said coldly: "Those people don't dare to do anything, although Chen Ba is my enemy first, I hope he won't be hot-headed and use the game currency to cheapen those beasts!" I will try my best to interfere in the affairs of the Game Points Administration, so that the points donated by players cannot be turned into the wealth of some people......"
Chen Hao didn't know that he had attracted the attention of certain departments, and after a few days of leisure, he began to plan to transfer manpower to China. In the Cam Ranh Bay First Division, he planned to transfer a brigade to the southwest, and gradually expand its strength after establishing a B-level headquarters in the southwest. With his current financial resources, there is no problem in buying A-level command drawings, but he is preparing for development in the southwest and does not want to attract the attention of others.
Chen Hao would not go to the eastern coast to establish a base as Xuanyuan Jian expected, because the eastern provinces were very powerful both players and NPCs, and it was difficult for him to be dominant. He first temporarily developed in Qianzhou and established some inconspicuous small base areas in Qianzhou. When the time came, he directly bought A-level drawings to build a comprehensive headquarters and connected all the small base areas in series, and Qianzhou fell into his hands.
After mastering Qianzhou, he will march to Gui Province, and attack both land and sea at the same time, and there is a great chance of mastering Gui Province. At that time, Gui Province will have access to the sea, and then through Nguyen Chi Van will master some ports in Vietnam. The base areas in the southwest have been connected by various naval bases. At that time, while Chen Hao had a strong navy, he could gradually realize his plan to become the king of the southwest, and realize his ideals in the game step by step.
Chen Hao was waiting for the white demons to come back, and then sent them to the southwest to establish a base first. He asked Yang Du to prepare the 3.5 million taels of silver to be returned to Silva, and was about to contact Silva to come to carry it, but Silva first sent him a telegram asking him to go to Saigon to discuss things.
Chen Hao telegraphed back to Silva and asked him to come to Cam Ranh Bay by himself, and now that he has become an upstart, he has enough confidence. Three hours later. Silva appeared in the Cam Ranh Bay base area, and when he saw a large number of forts being built in Cam Ranh Bay, he said with an appreciative face: "Chen, you are really ready to build Cam Ranh Bay into a steel fortress, and the navy of any country will have to retreat when it sees such a fortress." ”
Of course, Chen Hao won't believe Silva's nonsense, this guy deliberately praised the defense of Cam Ranh Bay, just to sell more arms. He smiled and said to Silva: "Mr. Silva, the 3.5 million taels of silver I owe you are ready. Let's settle the bill now! ”
Silva waved his hand and said, "Chen, don't get me wrong. I'm not here to ask you for payment. With our friendship, it's okay if you repay later, and if you need money urgently, we can change the agreement and postpone the repayment period. ”
Chen Hao secretly despised the hypocrisy of foreign devils, and he smiled: "I can be regarded as repaying the loan in advance now, since I have a good relationship with Mr. Silva." Why don't you lower the interest rate for me? We agreed to repay the loan in half a year, but now it has been less than two months, so we have to reduce it by half for me! ”
Silva said with a serious face: "Friendship is friendship, business is business, and of course the repayment for half a year cannot be changed." Chen: If you feel that you will repay the loan early. You can pay it back later, even more than half a year. ”
Chen Hao knew that the foreign devils would not spit out the money they received, and the two of them had signed an agreement to make the system fair, and if they wanted to change the agreement, they had to agree. Silva's 500,000 taels of silver is a real profit, and it is impossible for a person like him to make money suffer a loss.
Silva sold so many arms to Chen Hao on credit, and he also took the risk, although 500,000 taels of silver was a lot, but it was also what people deserved. Chen Hao proposed to let Silva charge less interest, but he didn't think that Silva agreed, but just wanted Silva to give some preferential treatment in the next arms deal.
Chen Hao smiled faintly and said, "If Mr. Silva doesn't agree, forget it, 3.5 million taels of silver are ready, and we can complete the delivery at any time." ”
Chen Hao never mentioned the matter of continuing to sell arms, and Silva was not sure if he was upset. Chen Baxian had at least five million pounds, and he had to earn this money first, so he said tentatively: "Chen, when I came to your headquarters, I saw a lot of batteries being built, I paid attention to it at the time, to build so many batteries, you still need at least 300 large-caliber fortress guns, right?" ”
Chen Hao nodded and said, "That's right!" I do need some artillery, but Cam Ranh Bay shouldn't be dangerous for the time being, so I don't have the idea of buying a cannon. ”
"If you build the fort and don't buy a cannon to install it, you're coaxing a ghost!" Silva muttered in his heart, he was really afraid of losing Chen Hao, a big customer, so he said: "If you want to buy artillery, how about I give you another discount?" 300 cannons, I only charge you 14,000 taels of silver for each cannon, how about a total price of 4.2 million taels of silver? ”
"Although I'm not in a hurry to buy guns, I do have some spare money in my hands, so it's okay to buy them back first at the right price." Chen Hao paused and said: "But my business has always been fair, everyone has to make business to continue, and the 200 mm caliber fortress gun is still at the original price!" ”
Silva couldn't figure it out, so he took the initiative to give a discount, and the other party had to save 300,000 taels of silver for 300 large-caliber fortress guns. This is not a small amount, the other party gave up easily, and was able to break into such a big family business, Chen Baxian is definitely not a fool, could it be that he has other purposes?
Just when Silva was puzzled, Chen Hao smiled and said: "Two days ago, my people found a mission clue in Europe, Britain is already planning to build battle cruisers, and they have no confidence in the design drawings, so they have not started construction for a long time." According to the real history, they will not start building the Invincible-class battlecruisers until next year, so I think that if the British Naval Commission is approached, it should be possible to get the Invincible-class battlecruisers on the market ahead of schedule. ”
"Invincible-class battlecruisers?" Silva suddenly became interested, and he said excitedly: "Who are your people looking for to trigger the mission?" I have some contacts on the British side, and I can order this state-of-the-art battlecruiser for you as long as you provide a clue. ”
Chen Hao shook his head and said, "Mr. Silva, if it's just to order cruisers, my people are also capable of doing it." After all, now the British NPCs have no confidence in this kind of warship, of course they are happy to accept other people's orders to inspect the battleship, I asked you for help in the hope that you will take advantage of the opportunity of the British NPCs busy with experiments, in order to order two Invincible-class battlecruisers as a condition, in exchange for the original design drawings of the Invincible-class battlecruisers and the supporting armor hardening, turbine units, triple battery and other technologies. ”
Silva finally understood what Chen Hao meant, and he said seriously: "Chen, it is impossible for players at this stage to build warships by themselves, and there are too many technologies involved in the construction of warships. Besides, it's good that the British are willing to let you order battlecruisers, and you also want original shooting blueprints and a lot of technology, how could those NPCs agree. ”
Chen Hao said lightly: "If Mr. Silva has connections in the British Naval Commission and is willing to help, of course I will tell you how to carry out the mission to get the British to agree." In addition to ordering two battlecruisers, I will also order an upcoming Dreadnought-class battleship to serve as a test subject for the British, which of course will give you some profit in between. ”
"If you agree, I'll tell you the process of the task as soon as we sign the system contract. You follow the process and negotiate with the NPCs of the British Naval Commission, and I will pay the deposit for the order of three ships, and you will give me all the technical drawings when the time comes. In addition, I am going to build a large shipyard, and you will find a way to buy the construction drawings of the 10,000-ton shipyard for me, and you will definitely not lose money at a price. ”
Chen Hao's conditions made Silva dizzy, if Chen Baxian really bought three warships and 10,000-ton dock drawings, his profit should be more than 500,000 pounds, right? Chen Baxian's ambition is too great, he bought three main warships in one go, and after establishing a shipyard, he will build some supporting ships, which player in his fleet can match?
Silva is in the game to make money, he has no interest in competing for hegemony, but he doesn't mind Chen Haoqiang. After calculating for a moment, he nodded and agreed: "If your people can really provide mission clues, and your purpose can be achieved by completing the mission of the British Naval Commission, I am willing to help with this." But let me say first, I want 200,000 pounds of profit for battleships, 150,000 pounds for battlecruisers, and an additional 50,000 pounds for each 10,000-ton dock drawing. ”
"Deal! But you'll have to keep an eye out for the original design drawings of the Mauser G98 rifle and the barge gun, and preferably the Krupp gun, and if you find one, I'll be willing to buy it at a high price. (To be continued......)
