"Cyborg?" Billy snorted to his feet, exclaiming as Susan muttered.
If it is said that the two sides have just drawn their guns and confronted each other, which has made the atmosphere tense, then at this time, the atmosphere in the entire reception room can only be called terrifying.
Artificial humans have always been called killing machines by countries outside the Steam Alliance, for two reasons, one is that the artificial man is only loyal to his maker, although he also has rich emotions, but he is extremely loyal to his master, and has reached the level of prohibition, and the second is that the artificial man does not have a low-level existence, and the inferior artificial human, at the beginning of its creation, also has the strength not to lose to the level of a great fighter.
These two points have forged the prestige of artificial humans, and most humans have maintained a respectful attitude towards such artificial mechanical creatures.
In the reception room, Billy's subordinates look at me, I look at you, and finally look at Billy, who doesn't know whether to turn Ben at the muzzle of Susan and the others and turn it on the android.
"Put down your guns!" Xia Zuo said as he sat on the sofa and raised his hand and waved.
Billy and Susan quickly glanced at their side, and the gunmen put down their guns one by one.
Xia Zuo patted Lei's thigh, and Lei slowly put down the energy cannon, the energy cannon quickly converged, and after the mechanical movement, it was recombined into an arm, and he slowly sat back next to Xia Zuo.
Everyone in the reception room suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, and Susan stood at the door, either to leave or to stay.
"Since you haven't left, come in, I don't want to have a misunderstanding, let's talk!" Xia Zuo said in a light tone.
Anyway, Xia Zuo is also the famous young patriarch of the Sersa people, and he was nurtured by his father who has experienced a lot of rules, if he is asked to pretend to be a scholar and a soldier, it may not work, but if you want to pretend to be a big man, you can still be caught.
After listening to Xia Zuo's words, Susan hesitated for a moment, then walked into the north hall of the reception room without saying a word, and sat down opposite Xia Zuo.
Billy waved his hand to the side, motioning for his men to clean up the doorway, and then sat down on Xia Zuo's side as well.
"Sir, I'm sorry I offended what happened just now!" Xia Zuo didn't say anything more, but Susan said first.
"It's out of the way!" Xia Zuo waved his hand, indicating that he didn't mind, and after a pause, he said, "Let's talk about it, what's going on?"
"Ahem!" Billy coughed lightly and looked up, "Since things have come to this point, I'll make it clear......"
Billy tells the story, and with his words, Shazo learns the reason for Susan's outburst.
In fact, as early as half a month ago, Xia Zuo did not know Belgium, and Billy had a deal with Susan, the daughter of the Dutch arms dealer Oviedo, who was only twenty-one years old, but had already begun to take over some of Oviedo's arms business, and she agreed with Billy to ship a shipload of Chuck III long musket parts to the outskirts of England for the final combined processing by Billy's underground factory.
There was nothing wrong with this, but it wasn't until a few days ago that Xia Zuo appeared and came up with a blueprint for a new revolver.
In terms of profits, the OEM assembly arms business naturally did not make money by producing new revolvers, so Billy broke the contract and wanted to invest the factory and all the funds in the production of new revolvers.
Things are not responsible, and it is indeed Xia Zuo who robbed Susan's business.
"Sir, since Billy is cooperating with you, then I, Susan, will not force it, I will inform them to stop at sea first, and I will find a way to ...... the processing" After Billy finished speaking, Susan chose to take the initiative to back down.
She was indeed shocked by thunder, with the strength of her senior martial artist, she couldn't feel how powerful Lei's energy was, it was beyond her limit, as for Xia Zuo, who had been wearing a black robe without showing her face, she couldn't even feel a trace of energy, and she didn't know what kind of strength it was.
Any powerful android is inextricably linked to the Steam Alliance, and it seems true that Billy has a relationship with the Steam Alliance.
After speaking, Susan stood up, nodded to Xia Zuo, and was about to leave, the words were beautiful, but the melancholy on Susan's face was clearly expressed.
It was impossible for her not to worry that every day the ship stopped at sea would cause a lot of losses, and more importantly, it was the first time that her father, Orlando, had entrusted her with this kind of business, and if she messed up, her place in front of him would be in jeopardy.
"Wait!" Xia Zuo raised his hand and called out to Susan.
Susan's face changed, she stopped, looked at Xia Zuo and said, "Sir, I have already given in." She thought Xia Zuo was looking for trouble.
"That's not what I meant!" Natsuzo shook his shoulders and immediately turned his head sideways to whisper something in Ray's ear, the voice was so low that no one else could hear it.
Listening to Xia Zuo's words, Lei nodded.
"Sit down, let's talk about business!" Xia Zuo pointed to the sofa opposite.
Susan's expression was stunned, and she slowly sat back on the sofa, she didn't know what business Xia Zuo had to talk about with her.
"Do you have samples of those parts?" asked Xia Zuo.
"Yes!" Susan nodded, waving her hand at the middle-aged man behind her.
The man stepped forward at once, placed the metal box he had been carrying on the low table, and opened it to reveal a number of parts of the firearm that were placed in the grooves, more than twenty of them, which were just enough to form a long musket, but in some places they needed to be polished and welded.
This batch of parts are all from the Netherlands, pressed by steam engines, parts production requires large machinery, does not require too much labor, and assembly is just the opposite, the number of workers is very large, the Dutch population is too small, this kind of shady work, simply not enough manpower, so the parts are sent to the UK OEM for installation.
Susan pushed the box in front of Xia Zuo, who looked at it and pushed it to Ray next to him.
The two began to whisper from time to time, Lei only opened his mouth twice, and most of the time Xia Zuo was asking, the voice was too small for no one to hear clearly.
It didn't take long for Xia Zuo to raise his head and look at Billy: "Give me a pen and paper!"
Although he didn't know what Xia Zuo was going to do, Billy immediately called for someone to bring him white paper and pen.
Xia Zuo gave both things to Lei, Lei held the pen in his hand, gently pressed the tip of the pen on the white paper, his eyes flashed red, and his hand moved like a machine, so fast that people looked down on it.
In fact, he is a machine.
After only three seconds, Ray's hand stopped suddenly, and on the blank piece of paper, a design of the firearm that Ray had conceived in his consciousness had been drawn, and even the dimensions were fully marked.
Xia Zuo pulled over the blueprint and looked at it, then threw it to Susan, and said, "Look, the blueprint of the new long musket!"
Susan took it, but gave it to the middle-aged man behind her, she knew a lot about the musket, but the blueprints looked a little cloudy.
The middle-aged man took it, swept his eyes a few times, and his eyes suddenly widened a little, looking surprised.
"Barrel shortening...... 300 grams less weight...... More closed...... This ......" the middle-aged man muttered, some speechless, Lei marked it in too detail, and even the calculation formula of some indices was on it, and the middle-aged man felt that he was not looking at a picture, but looking at a well-designed musket.
"How?" asked Susan.
"Miss, the long musket on this blueprint has never been seen before, because of the enhancement of the sealing, although the barrel is shortened, the power is not reduced, but it will make the musket more portable, the structure is simplified, the musket is less likely to be damaged, and ...... This gun has a 70 percent application rate for the parts of the Chuck III long musket...... But on the whole, its performance is far more than that of the Chuck Type 3" The middle-aged man was so excited that he almost jumped up, and everyone who has studied the design of the musket will understand the value of this lighter, less indestructible long musket.
Maybe it shouldn't be called a long musket, it should be a short-barreled musket.
Billy, who was very interested in gun design, was shocked, he heard it clearly, and seemed to anticipate that a new type of musket that was about to affect the world would come out soon.
The application rate of parts has reached 70 percent, and the performance of the long musket is better?
Susan's eyes lit up completely, she was not a fool, she was in the arms business, and naturally understood how valuable the musket designed on the picture was.
Billy and Susan turned their heads to look at Xia Zuo at the same time, and then looked at Ray beside Xia Zuo.
Their mood is no longer to be described as shock, this gun, is it that this artificial man just took a few words to design?
They will never know this, but one thing is certain, this mysterious young master Xia Zuo can come up with the design of the firearm, all because of this powerful android.
Xia Zuo did it on purpose, he just wanted to let these two people understand that the picture was given by Lei, not me, and if there is trouble in the future, don't look for me.
I have to think about the future, Lei is going to leave after all, and Xia Zuo is still worried about his safety.
"It's good to know the value of the gun, that's where I'm going to work with you, it can't be said to be us, it should be the three of us, Susan, you ship the parts and give them to Billy, and Billy makes the other parts and takes care of the assembly. Xia Zuo opened his mouth and laughed.
"I agree!" said Billy at once, of course he wanted to get a foot in this kind of business.
"I agree. Susan replied that there was no reason to disagree, that his father had given her only the task of assembling a musket and bringing it back, and that she had brought back a new musket that she had never seen before, and that she would make a fortune, which was definitely an overachievement.
"Very good, but this profit ......" Xia Zuo finally got to the point.
"Master Xia Zuo, how many ...... do you want you want?" asked Billy, because it was all processed in his factory, so it was up to him to say this.
"What do you think?" said Natsuzo, throwing the question back.
Billy looked thoughtful, and finally gritted his teeth, patted his leg and said, "How about we split the account fifty-fifty?"
Five-five?
Susan immediately looked surprised and looked at Billy, she had never heard that Billy would be so magnificent, Xia Zuo was just out of the drawings, and Billy had to feed a large group of people, take extremely high risks, and be in charge of sales.
What's more, the advent of any kind of firearm has a period of high returns, and once this time passes, the world's major arsenals will produce imitations, and the profits will plummet a lot.
Billy's revenue share to Xia Zuo is too high.
"Fifty percent? no, I only need forty percent ......" Xia Zuo thought about it and smiled, in fact, he didn't know whether fifty percent of the income was high or low, it didn't matter, if he didn't need money urgently, he didn't take money very seriously at all, probably because his family was too rich, the Sersa tribe that had been bandits for generations had never been attacked and looted, hundreds of years of wealth accumulation, Xia Zuo didn't know how much money was in the treasury of his hometown, anyway, there were many, many people.
Forty percent?
Susan and Billy glanced at each other, their expressions were all puzzled, fifty percent was proposed by Billy, why did Xia Zuo take the initiative to give up?
"Don't think about it, I do only need forty percent of the profit, and this is true for both firearms, but I have one condition......," Xia Zuo spoke again.
You say. Billy immediately said, it's good to have conditions, if this is a concession for no reason, it will always make people feel that there is a conspiracy in it.
"I need each of you to give me 150,000 gold coins, a total of 300,000 gold coins, give them now. Xia Zuo said.
Give money right away?
Billy's face changed slightly, although he has money, but he doesn't spend it like this, he hasn't made money yet, and production also requires a lot of money, so he has to give money?
Last time, he gave Peña arms worth tens of thousands of gold coins, but in fact, arms are a profiteering industry, and the market price of those things is tens of thousands of gold coins, and for Billy, as an arms dealer, he only paid less than 10,000 gold coins.
And this time, Xia Zuo opened his mouth to be 150,000.
"You don't want to?" said Natsuzo's voice.
"No, Young Master Xia Zuo, what you said, how could we not be willing. "Billy Road.
"Yes, yes, right away!" Susan followed
They had doubts, but they were just thinking about it, the profits of these two businesses were more than one million, one was the daughter of a big arms leader, and the other was the daughter of a bigger arms leader, and it was not a problem for them to take out 150,000 gold coins in advance.
"Why don't we sign the contract first?" said Billy.
"What kind of contract to sign? Forget it, you have to sign it yourself, you don't have to bring me, and I'm not afraid that you will swallow my money, unless you don't want to have a next cooperation." Natsuzo shook his head and threw out another pie.
Billy and Susan's eyes lit up at the same time, and they couldn't let go of the extremely lucrative business that only this new product has.
"Okay, if you don't sign it, you won't sign it, Master Xia Zuo, you wait......" Billy got up and hurried to his desk.
Susan also immediately waved her hand behind her, summoned her subordinates carrying the box, took out a special golden ticket from the box, signed the amount in it, and finally signed her name and handed the golden ticket to Xia Zuo.
Xia Zuo looked at it, and it said that the amount was 150,000, and there was not only Susan's signature on it, but also his father Orlando's signature and seal, which was probably written and stamped a long time ago.
Billy quickly walked back, blew the golden ticket in his hand, and handed it to Xia Zuo.
The two golden tickets are completely different in style and come from different banks, but they have one thing in common, and that is the words "Salvation Union Bank" printed in the corners.
The United Bank of Redemption is the largest banking organization in the Redemption Alliance, which brings together the top 30 banks in the Redemption Alliance.
"Whew! very good!" Xia Zuo blew the two golden tickets, put them in his arms, got up and said, "That's all for today, if there is anything I will contact you." ”
"Sir, why don't you stay for a drink?" said Susan, getting up and inviting.
"Yes, Master Xia Zuo, I have the best brandy here......" Billy chimed in, seemingly forgetting the previous unpleasantness with Susan.
"Forget it, I still have something to do today, I'll ...... another day" Xia Zuo waved his hand and refused, and walked outside, he would never tell the two of them, he was going back to school.
Xia Zuo left the grocery store under the congratulations of the two and took Lei all the way back to the academy, after Xia Zuo handed over the golden ticket to Lei, he hurried to class, but he didn't expect that as soon as he walked to the academy residential area, he was grabbed by Vivian who suddenly jumped out.
"Xia Zuo, where have you been? I've been looking for you for a long time? Come with me. Vivien pulled him forward briskly.
"Hey, go out for a walk, don't worry, what's the matter with me?" asked Xia Zuo.
"The principal is looking for you, let's go!"
"Headmaster?"
