Chapter 350: The Cannon Technology Arrives in the Mountain 2
After making the decision, Lu Chen started to act. First, he planned to destroy Yun Qingchen's restaurant and opium den.
He walked out of the room and found Green who was reading a book in the living room. When Green saw him, he put down the book in his hand and said to Lu Chen with a smile:
"Have you finished reading the information?"
Lu Chen nodded, then found a sofa and sat down.
"finish watching."
"How do you feel? Do you want my help?"
Green continued to ask.
Lu Chen thought for a while and said, "I think he will need help. I plan to open another restaurant next to his restaurant."
Green said in confusion, "Is it necessary to go through so much trouble? Can't we just ask the police and the tax department to visit him every day?"
Lu Chen was speechless. I know this is easy, but we are in California. How can I do this? Lu Chen laughed and said:
"I would like to, but I don't know anyone in the San Francisco police or tax department."
Green said with a smile: "You don't know him, but I do. Don't worry, I can help you solve this little problem. Whether it's a restaurant or a smoking den, I guarantee that he won't be able to operate it."
If Green wanted to help, Lu Chen would definitely not stop him. After all, they were all dealing with Yun Qingchen, so it didn't matter who took action. And if he didn't take action, then the Yun family's grudge wouldn't be his. This would save him a lot of trouble. So Lu Chen said with a smile:
"Thank you, Brother Green."
After Lu Chen stayed in Green for a few more days, he set off to return to New York. This was mainly because his family sent him a message that the mountain man kept coming to see him every few days. Lu Chen was a little excited when he heard the news. Could it be that this little guy had persuaded the Netherlands to let him open a military factory in the East Indies?
Thinking of this, Lu Chen could no longer stay in Los Angeles and flew back to New York with Hans.
Lu Chen had just returned home and hadn't even sat down to warm up his seat when Shanzhong Erbi came to Lu Chen's villa in a hurry. Seeing Shanzhong Erbi's anxious look, Lu Chen pretended to be puzzled and asked:
"Mr. Yamanaka, what's the matter that makes you so anxious that you want to see me so quickly?"
Shan Zhong Er Bi immediately said: "Mr. Lu, you are finally back. I am anxious to find you because I have received a reply from General Araki. He agrees to cooperate with you. I am here today to hand over the artillery technology to you."
Lu Chen looked at the two walls of the mountain with some surprise.
"You are so anxious. What do you think about building a factory?"
Shan Zhong Er Bi waved his hand and said, "We don't ask you to build a factory with us. You just need to provide us with 100 artillery pieces for free."
What a joke these days, you want to get a hundred of my artillery pieces for free with just an artillery skill. Lu Chen shook his head and said:
"No! No! Your appetite is too big. One hundred cannons, do you know how much that would cost? I think you should just forget it and go find someone else to cooperate with."
Hearing Lu Chen's refusal, Yamanaka Nibi was a little anxious. He had received news that General Araki had won the right to form four divisions from the military. To form four divisions, a lot of weapons were needed. If he could not reach an agreement with Lu Chen, they would be restricted by those chaebols. The division formed would probably be a Class B division. How could General Araki compete with those ruling factions?
So he said anxiously:
"Mr. Lu, this is the means of production for artillery. With this means of production, you can continuously produce artillery. So I will exchange this for 100 artillery pieces. This request is not too much, right?"
Lu Chen curled his lips and said, "I want your cannon. I have a complete set of 88mm cannon production materials. Can the cannons you produce compare with the 88mm cannon?"
"Mr. Yamanaka, you should know the level of the artillery you designed and produced. Do you think anyone would buy the artillery produced based on the information you provided, except for you?"
After saying that, Lu Chen looked at the suitcase carried by Shan Zhong Er Bi with disdain. The weapons produced by Xiao Ri Zi were even disdained by Li Yunlong. What kind of market do you think this thing can have?
After hearing what Lu Chen said, Shan Zhong Erbi fell silent. The weapons produced by their country were indeed the same as what Lu Chen said. No country was willing to buy them. But cooperation with Lu Chen must be carried out. Since Lu Chen thought that 100 artillery pieces were too many, he could only reduce some. He thought for a while and said:
"Then we only need eighty. What do you think?"
"Twenty guns, and I can give you a 9% discount on the artillery."
Lu Chen definitely disagreed with the eighty guns proposed by Shanzhong Erbi. He was kidding. It was good enough to give them thirty or forty guns for free. He wanted eighty guns. He thought Lu Chen was being taken advantage of. So Lu Chen only gave them twenty guns. Anyway, Lu Chen didn't care about their artillery technology.
"Twenty is too few, how about sixty, Mr. Lu?"
Lu Chen still shook his head and said, "Sixty guns is not enough. I will give you twenty-five at most. And you will not get any discounts on guns in the future."
Yamanaka Erbi was a little anxious. Twenty-five artillery pieces, what a joke, not even enough to form a division. So Yamanaka Erbi immediately said:
"Mr. Lu, twenty-five guns are too few. Forty guns will give me enough artillery for a division."
A division only has 92 artillery pieces. You are kidding me. Lu Chen knows that a division A is equipped with no less than 44 artillery pieces. There are 97 Type infantry guns alone. There are Type mortars. This Yamanaka Erbi is obviously lying. Or is this guy's box only carrying information about Type mortars? If this is true, Lu Chen will curse.
But no matter whether Shan Zhong Er Bi was lying or not, Lu Chen would definitely not accept these forty cannons. So Lu Chen waved his hand and said:
"I can give you at most thirty. If you think it's too little, then I don't think there's any need to continue this deal."
Shanzhong Erbi looked at Lu Chen's impatient expression and felt that if he didn't agree to the amount, Lu Chen would definitely stop talking to him. After hesitating for a while, he said:
"Okay, then thirty. But I ask that you give me a minimum price when we buy this type of artillery later."
Lu Chen thought for a moment and said, "I can only guarantee that the bids are not higher than those offered by your domestic arms companies."
After hearing what Lu Chen said, Shan Zhong Er Bi immediately breathed a sigh of relief. As long as he could purchase the artillery at a normal price, he would be satisfied. He nodded and said, "Okay, then it's settled."
