Chapter 14, to the United States
Talking about the issue of arms trading, Huang Liang calculated how much money he could make.
"Three thousand rifles, each earning two pounds, five hundred pistols, each earning a pound, twenty Maxim heavy machine guns, each earning ten pounds, a total profit of six thousand seven hundred pounds."
Combined with the bullets deducted, the net profit was more than 9,000 pounds.
A car without gas is just a pile of rotten iron, guns without bullets, and it is almost useless.
Go to the foreigner's telegraph office and send a telegram to Wilson and Jonathan, respectively.
The two people who received the telegram hurriedly prepared arms and bought ferry tickets.
Two days later, Wilson arrived with munitions.
"Man, thank you so much." Wilson, who got the pounds, said excitedly.
"This is just the first batch of munitions, there will be more business in the future, remember, only small profits can be sold more, if we build a military factory in Xiangjiang, the profit will increase at least several times." Huang Liang said foolishly.
"How many times can the profit be increased?" Wilson was skeptical.
"The people here are only two or three taels of silver a month, and in a year, it is less than four pounds, and the salary alone is several times less than that abroad." Huang Liang said.
"That's just as well." Wilson nodded.
"Except for the steel for the production of gun barrels, anything on this side of Manqing is cheaper than abroad." Huang Liang said again.
"Hmm." Wilson echoed thoughtfully.
It didn't take long for Jonathan to arrive with arms as well.
"Father." Seeing him coming, Diana greeted him with a smile.
"Man, I'll go first." Wilson thought for a moment and said.
"Be careful on the road." Huang Liang sent the other party out of the door.
"Why are you still buying arms from him?" Jonathan dissatisfied.
"Wilson is my friend." Huang Liang brazenly explained that he didn't want to put all his eggs in one basket, and he also wanted to find an arms dealer from Hu State.
The Eagle Country is intoxicated with the status of the world hegemon, the Hu State is accumulating strength, and the United States is eyeing the tiger.
If his arms suppliers are Hu Guoren, Eagle Guoren, and Mi Guoren.
Even if war breaks out, there will be one or two channels left for him to buy arms.
During World War I, the battlefield was in Europe, and he was able to buy guns and ammunition from the United States.
During World War II, even though Xiangjiang was occupied by the island nation, he was still able to purchase weapons from Hu.
Seeing the other party say this, Jonathan was in an extremely complicated mood, but he was helpless.
"Honey, it's getting late, let's go out to dinner." Diana said.
"Hmm." Huang Liang nodded, led everyone to the restaurant, and had a hearty meal.
After dinner, the group went to the ballroom and played for two hours.
After nightfall, Huang Liang, who was physically and mentally refreshed, secretly pondered about the merchant ship.
"I have to buy three cargo ships and make the country of belonging into the country of rice, the country of Hu, and the country of eagles."
The next day, Huang Liang inquired with Yu Qiaqing and found that a cargo ship with a load of about 1,000 tons only cost more than 15,000 taels of silver, which is converted into more than 2,000 pounds, which is still a brand new cargo ship.
For more than five thousand pounds, he bought three ninety percent new cargo ships, each carrying a thousand tons.
With the passports of the three countries, the three cargo ships were changed in turn.
In less than a week, three cargo ships flew three national flags.
It only took Huang Liang more than half a year to sell arms to all parts of the country.
At this time, his dragon chanting iron cloth shirt, tiger roaring golden bell jar, Wing Chun boxing, and Baji boxing have all been completed.
The realm of Jin is still at the peak of Ming Jin, and the realm of Qigong is still in the middle stage of refining and refining qi.
With far more strength and speed than ordinary people, an ordinary Huajin boxer may not be his opponent.
The uncle Shang Yunxiang in the north, the realm of strength only has Ming Jin, but he can crush many Jinquan masters.
"It's 1906, and there are only eight years left until 1914."
After counting his assets, not counting those properties, Huang Liang found that he had more than five million pounds.
The yen obtained from the bank of the island country has been converted into pounds by his gunmen in batches in various places.
"It's time to go to the United States, for the safety of my life, I must complete my studies before World War I."
After looking at the time, he called Jack and asked him to find a boat to the United States.
"Honey, you're going back to the United States?" Diana asked, confused.
"The arms business is in trouble, and if war does not break out, it will be difficult to sell arms again." Glancing at the Mi Country girl whose temperament and figure were better than in the past, Huang Liangxin secretly praised the magic of yoga in his heart.
"What do you think?" Diana asked again.
"Addison's company is very profitable, and I want to go to the United States to investigate." Huang Liang said foolishly.
"Addison has a lot of money, and we are no match for him." Diana worried.
"Don't worry, I just want to learn from Turner, and then go back to Manqing to build a factory, and I won't compete with Addison in the United States." Huang Liang explained with a smile.
"Hmm." Diana nodded with relief.
After more than a year of getting along, her body and mind have long been conquered by him.
Three days later, Huang Liang and others took a cargo ship and headed for the distant country of rice.
The straight-line distance between Xiangjiang and the United States is more than 9,000 kilometers, and it will take at least more than a month, or even more than two months, to reach the speed and route of cargo ships, as well as the docking time of ports along the way.
In order not to get bored during the journey, Huang Liang brought two boxes of books.
He didn't want to eat Western food all the time, so he also brought a big box of condiments.
"Mr. Huang, I'm Captain Cohen, it's a pleasure to meet you." A big-bellied foreigner walked over briskly and introduced himself with a smile on his face.
"Hello, Mr. Cohen, it's an honor to meet you." Huang Liang smiled and shook hands with the other party.
"Mr. Huang, if you have any freight needs in the future, remember to contact me, you can rest assured, I will never charge you a high price." Cohen went straight to the point.
"I'm going to stay in the United States for a while, and when I return to Xiangjiang, I'll purchase a batch of supplies, and I'll contact Mr. Cohen when the time comes." Huang Liang said.
"Thank you so much." Cohen hurriedly thanked him, the other party was a well-known arms dealer with personal assets of up to several million pounds, as long as he established a good relationship, he would not worry about no business.
After the other party left, Huang Liang enjoyed Diana's massage while reading medical books.
Two days later, the cargo ship arrived in the island nation, and the crew began to unload the cargo one by one.
Huang Liang, Diana, Jack, and Lilith sat on chairs, each holding a fishing rod to fish, in this era there was no nuclear radiation, and the island country with rich fishery resources was very suitable for fishing.
The next day, the cargo ship loaded with the goods of the island nation and headed for the next port.
The rough waters force the cargo ship to rise and fall.
Feeling this, Huang Liang stood up on the splint and stood up in the three-body pose.
Diana and the others, seeing this, also ran to the splint to stand on the pile.
In the early morning, Huang Liang was facing the vast sea, practicing Xingyi Qigong, and then played all kinds of boxing techniques several times, after lunch, he read a book on the splint, and at dusk, he practiced the dragon yin iron cloth shirt.
That morning, Diana asked, "Mr. Cohen, when will we get to the United States?" ”
"I promise that within a week, the ship will arrive in the United States." Cohen swore by it.
After reading more than 300 books, Huang Liang felt that his medical skills, music, cooking, English, French, German, and Japanese had improved a lot.
The cargo ship arrived at a port in the United States, and after bidding farewell to Cohen, everyone found a hotel to stay in temporarily.
It took more than ten days for Huang Liang and others to come to Niu Yue smoothly.
