Guilherme Carraza saw Fang Lang nodding his head, acknowledging Adams Tic's words, and finally raised his doubts.

Fang Lang had been prepared for this question, but he also knew very well in his heart that no matter how he explained it, Guilherme Caraza in front of him would not really believe it, after all, what men want is nothing more than power, money, and beauty. Who would believe that anyone could give up their low-hanging power?

So, after a little thought, he decided not to answer his question directly, but instead stretched out his hand to Adams Titch beside him, and introduced to Guilherme Caraza:

"Admiral Adams Tich will be Chief of Staff of the Admiralty, and I'm still too young to be a Deputy Admiralty under you!"

Hearing this, Guilherme Carasa's eyes instantly froze, staring at Fang Lang tightly, and anger began to surge in his heart.

What does this mean, tell yourself clearly, is he, the Minister of the Navy, just an ornament? The deputy minister is Fang Lang, and the chief of staff, Adams Titch, has just clearly told himself that Fang Lang is his boss, so will he, the Minister of the Navy, be directly set up when he sits on it?

Some people may think that in such a large department as the Admiralty, in addition to the deputy secretary and chief of staff, there are many other high-ranking officers! When he has the name of the Minister of the Admiralty, won't he be able to cultivate his own forces?

But his own family knows his own affairs, and he, a general who has always served as a logistics officer, has a very low influence on the naval combat forces, because the army is a very special place. Here the strong are respected, your strength is strong, you can fight, you can win the battle, and everyone will obey you.

If you can't even fight, who will take those proud soldiers seriously! Compared with Fang Lang, he can be said to have no advantage at all in this regard, what to use to compete with the other party.

As for using money to buy the hearts of the people below, there is no need to think about it. Even he himself is still waiting for the people below to give him a song and filial piety! How could he use money to buy the hearts of the people below, and how could he have money for example.

Therefore, although Fang Lang's words were not explicitly stated, the meaning was already very clear.

It's not that I can't be the Minister of the Navy, it's that I can't do it or not, and the power can be in my own hands. Now I will be the deputy secretary of the navy for a few years, and then I will be the secretary of the navy when I am older for two years.

Then the entire Admiralty can develop under his control for many years, and at that time, the Navy will inevitably become Fang Lang's territory completely.

Thinking of this, Guilherme Calasa couldn't help but feel a little dizzy in his head, this young rear admiral is really thoughtful!

But if he wanted him to admit defeat so easily, of course he didn't want to, so he couldn't help but sneer and said:

"I'll just say that General Fang and I have no relatives and no reason, how can he suddenly be so good to me! It turns out that it's just that I'm the easiest to control!

Then I may have to disappoint General Fang, the Minister of the Navy, who has no real power, has no attraction to me, I should continue to manage my logistics department! ”

Regarding Guilherme Caraza's refusal, Fang Lang had no surprises, and no one would willingly be a puppet for others. He had expected this, and that was why he had called Adams Titch with him today.

As soon as his words fell, Adams Titch on the side had already spoken unceremoniously.

"Huh...... General Karatha, I think you must have misunderstood something, and if you don't want to cooperate with your boss, then you should be prepared to go to court-martial!

You've been the head of logistics at the Admiralty for so many years, and your ill-gotten gains have reached more than three million dollars, but I have detailed accounts here, and if you have time, we can check them and see if there are any discrepancies with your own.

By the way, it's been two years since you bought that villa in the United States, and you haven't lived in it yet! It's a pity to be cheaper for others like this! ”

As soon as these words came out, General Guilherme Caraza, who had just looked disdainful, turned pale in an instant, it is normal for the Brazilian army to be corrupt, but if someone gets the evidence and directly pokes it out, then his life will be ruined.

At this time, he finally understood why Fang Lang was so calm and relaxed, it turned out that his fate was no longer in his control.

From the moment he was chosen by the other party, he had only two choices, either obey the other party's arrangement and become the minister of the navy with unlimited scenery. Either go to court-martial, become a model of the Admiralty's fight against corruption, and be thrown into prison.

As for whether the other party will deceive himself, General Guilherme Caraza will not be so naïve, and if he guesses how much money he is greedy for, he may even be casually talking nonsense.

But the villa in the United States is very secretive, and even his wife doesn't know about it, but the other party knows everything about it, how can this not make him tremble.

It was just a breathing time, and the cold sweat of Dou Da had already crawled all over his entire forehead, and his whole body was instantly soaked, and he had no strength at all.

"You, you, what do you want?"

Seeing the other party's appearance, Adams Titch also looked disdainful, and did not take this colleague who was about to be pushed to the throne of the Minister of the Navy by the boss in the slightest. The tone was cold and authentic:

"Don't be ashamed, do you think the boss is idle? Let you go up, it is to look up to you, don't toast and don't eat and drink. ”

The relationship between the two was not very good, Adams Titch said such a thing without any psychological pressure at all, and he had heard of Guilherme Caraza's greed, but he didn't expect the other party to be so greedy.

At the beginning, when he took the material from Fang Lang's hand, he was also shocked, three million US dollars was an astronomical amount in this era. There may be oil and water scraped off your body. How can you not make him angry.

Therefore, when Fang Lang asked him to sing this white face, he was very proactive.

Seeing Guilherme Calassa's face ugly when he was said by Adams Titch, but he didn't dare to refute it at all, Fang Langcai stood up with a smile and sang red-faced, and started a round and said:

"Haha...... General Calassa don't mind, General Tić is a soldier from a leading background, he is a little impatient, and he speaks more bluntly, I apologize to you on his behalf.

We are all friends, and even for the sake of General Leta's face, we will not do such a thing. ”

Fang Lang said it politely, but Guilherme Calassa really didn't believe a word in his heart, if it was really for the sake of General Leta's face, why did you collect these incriminating evidence from me!

What's more, he Guilherme Calaza is not a fool, the two of you sing and harmonize, you are simply wearing a pair of pants, if you can't see this trick, he will live all these years in vain.

But even if he saw it, what could he say? The problem now is that the other party has no fear at all, and he is a fish on their board, and he can handle it as he wants.

Therefore, he could only squeeze out a wry smile with an ugly face, looked at Fang Lang and said:

"Isn't General Fang afraid that after I become the Minister of the Navy, I will cause trouble for you?"

Hearing this, before Fang Lang could speak, Adams Titch on the side suddenly got up and reprimanded angrily:

"You dare!"

Seeing Adams Tichy looking like he was about to rush up to fight, Fang Lang couldn't help laughing, stretched out his hand and pressed down on him, signaling the other party to be a little calmer, and then slowly spoke:

"Adams, don't get excited, General Karathaya won't, he's not alone, he still has a whole logistics system behind him, if he really does this, their own people will not be able to spare him first.

There will be no place for him then. ”

As soon as these words came out, Guilherme Carraza was shocked, and he could understand the meaning of Fang Lang's words, which was equivalent to telling the other party that his position as a puppet naval minister was not just his business, but also related to the interests of their entire faction.

If he didn't understand why General Letta had the opportunity to storm the position of Chief of the General Staff of the Ministry of Defense, he would have understood it all now. Obviously, it was Fang Lang's forces that supported the other party behind the scenes, which gave the other party this confidence.

And his position and power as the Minister of the Navy are part of the deal.

After thinking about this, he only felt cold and despair, and the person who could get to this point in him couldn't accept being a simple puppet no matter what, but now it seems that he really has no choice.

After Adams Titch saw Fang Lang's movements, he stopped his movements, and just looked at this guy who didn't know what to do with cold eyes.

After hearing Fang Lang's words, he was also shocked in his heart, and secretly said that his boss was powerful, and he didn't hug the wrong thigh.

Fang Lang saw Guilherme Caraza's face was pale and he looked loveless, and knew that the suppression was almost over, so he took the initiative to speak again:

"General Karatha, in fact, my friends know what kind of person I am, I have never been a person who monopolizes interests, I prefer to share interests with friends rather than eat alone.

What is the real purpose of your desire to be the Minister of the Navy, you don't say, we all know it clearly, in fact, there is no need to be so troublesome at all.

Even if you don't have the power of the Secretary of the Navy, I can make you money, and even, earn more than you can earn as Secretary of the Navy. ”

Hearing this, Guilherme Caraza, whose face was extremely ugly, gradually had some luster in his eyes, and there was also a hint of expectation in his eyes when he looked at Fang Lang.

Seeing that Fang Lang stopped talking and ate a bite of food unhurriedly, but his eyes were waiting for his reaction, he understood that the other party was waiting for his attitude.

At this time, Guillerme Carraza had only one thought in his heart, that is, life was like being like that, and if he couldn't resist, he might as well lie down and enjoy it.

As if grasping the last straw, he swallowed his saliva with difficulty before he slowly spoke:

"What did General Fang say about this?"

He didn't deny that he was just to make money, after all, Fang Lang and they had already opened all his hole cards, and there was no point in denying it.

Fang Lang saw that he took the initiative to ask what he meant, and he knew that the other party had basically agreed with his idea, and now he just wanted to see if the step he gave was really suitable.

Fang Lang, who understood this, was no longer hiding, and said directly:

"In the future, as the leading brother of our Brazilian Navy, you will naturally represent our Brazilian Navy and promote the image of our Brazilian Navy everywhere.

So what good things can our Brazilian Navy get hold of now? Is it our aircraft carrier fleet? Of course not, how much of a role can an aircraft carrier play in the battle of a modern navy? It doesn't play any role, and the symbolism is far greater than the actual combat significance.

If you really want to build combat effectiveness, without a five-or so aircraft carrier, it will be difficult for you to even achieve an effective landing support.

So what do we have in the Brazilian Navy? I think we have just completed the domestic production of the destroyer, this completely imitation of the American Fletcher-class destroyer made of warship, not only in function and strength with the original American version, but also not the United States died in the war to produce an emergency product, the quality is quite guaranteed.

What's more, the brand new warships we build are cheaper than the second-hand warships of the Yankees, and they are the king of cost performance.

If General Karasa has any questions about this, you can ask General Tichy and I am sure you will get a satisfactory answer. ”

Hearing Fang Lang say that his aircraft carrier fleet could not even support the landing operation, General Karasha did not believe it, although the number of aircraft carriers was indeed insufficient, but it was definitely not bad to this extent.

After all, the bomb load of the aircraft in this era is completely incomparable with that of later generations, and if an aircraft takes off with a bomb, it can often only carry one heavy bomb, which is completely different from the later generations to measure it in tons.

In addition, because the aircraft has a small bomb load, low take-off weight, and short take-off distance, the requirements for aircraft carriers are not high, and many aircraft carriers on both sides during World War II were even converted from large cargo ships.

Therefore, the strength of the aircraft carrier under Fang Lang is not strong, and Fang Lang is not a lie.

But the real significance of this aircraft carrier fleet is not in the strength of combat effectiveness, but in the fact that it has set a precedent for the Brazilian Navy, and in the future, if the Navy needs more aircraft carrier fleet commanders, where to find it?

Needless to say, it is definitely Fang Lang's command, and when the time comes, the navy will be full of his old subordinates, which is the real confidence of Fang Lang's aircraft carrier fleet.

"But what does that have to do with me?"

After listening to Fang Lang's tirade, Guilherme Caraza really didn't understand what Fang Lang wanted to express, so he could only interrupt directly.

Seeing this, Fang Lang understood that the other party didn't have the patience to listen to him continue to say more, he was not angry, he just smiled, and went straight to the point:

"If you want to make a lot of money, I can authorize you to sell this copy of our Fletcher-class destroyer. We promise to charge only the cost price for all the warships sold by you, and we don't care about your sales price.

Not only will you be able to earn money, but you will also be able to use your role as Minister of the Navy to expand the global reach of our Brazilian Navy.

I promise that both the Admiralty and the Department of Defense will fully support this matter. ”

Hearing this, Guilherme Carraza was stupid, looked at Fang Lang with an incredulous face, and almost couldn't help blurting out a curse in his heart.

He has never seen such a brazen person, where is this opportunity to make a lot of money for him, it is clearly to let himself be a salesman for their family! Without thinking about this kind of thing, he shook his head directly and said:

"General Fang, do I look so stupid? Or am I particularly good at bullying? ”

Seeing this situation, Fang Lang also looked stunned, and a trace of embarrassment flashed on his face, but he quickly adjusted again and continued to speak:

"Hey...... General Karatha, don't worry, this is just one of my plans! I know that many people may not buy our replica of the Fletcher-class destroyers.

But what if several of us work together to push the Brazilian Navy to replace the existing old destroyers? For every purchase of one of our home-made Fletcher-class machines, the Fangyuan shipyard guarantees that a sum of money will go to your designated account.

In addition, all the warships that have been eliminated by us will also be left to you to deal with. What do you think? As for whether you dispose of it at the price of scrap iron or refurbish it for sale, General Titch and I promise not to participate.

Do you think there is money to be made in this business? ”

Fang Lang finally tried to see the dagger, and he knew very well in his heart that it would definitely be very difficult to simply let Guilherme Calasa help him sell warships abroad.

But through his own connections, pushing the Brazilian Navy to procure itself, with his own support, there will be absolutely no problems.

And the ones who can really make a lot of money will definitely be the warships that have been decommissioned from the Brazilian Navy, and when the time comes, sell them to some countries that are not particularly rich in funds, and the money that Guillerme Calaza can earn will be gone.

What's more, this kind of routine of selling the active equipment in his hands is even more handy for him, a guy who has been in charge of logistics for so many years.

Sure enough, as soon as Fang Lang's words were finished, Guilherme Carraza's eyes lit up suddenly, and he looked at Fang Lang with an incredulous expression, of course he understood what he meant.

Although Fang Lang can show his attitude, neither he nor General Titch are involved in the handling of the retired warship, and there is a meaning of avoiding risks. But he's good at this kind of thing! At the same time, he also knew in his heart what a huge profit this was, and he couldn't help but be moved.

He looked at Fang Lang for a long time with burning eyes, and when he saw that the other party was always looking at him with a smile on his face, and there was no dodge in his eyes, he understood that this was the other party's trading conditions.

"Are you sure? General Fang? ”

Seeing Guilherme Carrasa looking at him with a serious expression and a serious tone, Fang Lang understood in his heart that this matter should be done, so he couldn't help but smile slightly, and said frankly:

"Of course!"

Hearing this, a faint smile finally appeared on Guilherme Caraza's face, and he slowly got up and stretched out his right hand to Fang Lang and said:

"Happy cooperation, Mr. Deputy Minister!"

Seeing this, Fang Lang also laughed, slowly got up and held the other party's outstretched hand and said:

"Happy cooperation, Mr. Secretary of the Navy!"

Then the two looked at each other and smiled.

Adams Titch on the side couldn't help but shrug helplessly when he saw the two of them in a mess.

He was not disgusted by this matter, after all, the domestically produced Fletcher-class destroyer was imitated with his participation, and he was very confident in the quality of the product.

The large-scale installation of this warship is also an affirmation of his work, and of course he will not stop it.

At the same time, it would not hurt him to replace the current old warship with this battleship. As for how much naval military spending will be required, it is not something he can stop.
