On the coastal plain, Jiang Cheng saw Lu Reid looking at the neatly arranged tanks and armored vehicles with great interest.
He chuckled." Mr. Minister, send your people to check. If there are no problems, we can smoothly hand over the goods!"”
Hearing this, Lu Lide said to Saijipu,""Immediately check all the weapons and equipment.”
" Understood..." Saijipu quickly relayed this order to the soldiers of the National Defense Force.
As the number of weapons and equipment in this batch was too large, the counting process would take some time. Jiang Cheng changed the topic and said,"Mr. Minister, Instructor No. 2021 is the most outstanding elite of the army. With their training, your National Defense Force can be considered a true soldier.”
"Jiang, thank you very much for your help.”Lu Reid thanked him solemnly.
"Help? No, NO, no. We're taking what we need. These instructors help you train the soldiers. Not only do you have to be responsible for their daily meals, but you also have to pay them.”Jiang Cheng said slowly.
" I still have to pay my salary…" The corner of Lu Reed's mouth twitched, but he was not surprised."Jiang, how much do I need to pay to hire these people as instructors?”
"The person beside me is called Lu You. He is the commander of these people. At the same time, he is also a major general of the army, but he does not have a military rank!”Jiang Cheng pointed at Lu You, who was standing beside him, and introduced him.
" Major General…" Lu Reid was a little surprised. He stretched out his hand and smiled."General Lu, nice to meet you. I'm Rudd, the Minister of Defense of Eria.”
" Minister Lu Reed, hello!" Lu You smiled and shook hands with Reed.
Although Lu You was a clone, he was a high-level clone. His intelligence and EQ were much higher than ordinary people.
With Lu You's ability, he could easily lead an army division.
"Mr. Minister, Major General Lu You will explain the cost to you!”Jiang Cheng gave Lu You a look.
On the other side, Lu You understood and said in a deep voice,"Minister Lu Reed, Boss said that you are his friend. We will definitely do our best to train Boss's friend's army, and we will customize a detailed and thorough training plan.”
"We have a total of 2021 people. The salary is calculated by the day. You need to pay 404,200 dollars per day, which is 200 dollars per person per day.”
"Jiang, 200 dollars per person per day is too expensive.”Lu Lide's face turned pale. He couldn't accept it.
One had to know that the salary of the National Defense Force soldiers under him was only 100 dollars a month. On average, they only earned 3.3 dollars a day.
"Mr. Minister, you can't measure my people by the income level of Elijah. 200 dollars is only 6000 dollars a month. If you put this price in the international market, can you hire such an excellent instructor? If it weren't for the fact that we're friends, I wouldn't have sent you an instructor.”
Jiang Cheng was very speechless. This Lu Reid, did he not know how to settle accounts at all?
" But, Jiang…" Lu Lide wanted to say something, but Jiang Cheng interrupted him."Do you want them to train you for free? Was that even possible? Since you can't accept such a meager salary, then your army will have no chance to receive their training. You should find someone else!”
" I..." Lu Lide was speechless.
He understood that this price was really very low.
If he wanted to hire a military instructor internationally, he would probably have to pay several times more than this price.
An ordinary person could become a military instructor. You had to have a lot of professional knowledge and actual combat knowledge to be qualified!
A soldier who could be an instructor would at least be a platoon officer in the army.
"Alright, stop bargaining. It's just 400,000 dollars a day, and it's only 12 million dollars a month.”Jiang Cheng said disdainfully.
"General Lu, how long will it take for my army to master these tanks and helicopters?”Lu Reid looked at Lu You, wanting to know the approximate training time.
"Minister Rudd, if you are only familiar with it, a month is enough. However, if you want to form a fighting force, you need at least three months.”Lu You glanced at the soldiers and said,""Your National Defense Force has a total of 60,000 people. According to this configuration, we can help you train an armored division with strong combat effectiveness and four ordinary army divisions.”
" Three months, 36 million dollars…" Lu Lide's expression was bitter, but he finally nodded in agreement.
He knew that the expenditure of 36 million dollars was simply too worthwhile compared to the returns it could bring.
At this time, Saijp had finished counting all the weapons and equipment. He ran over and said,"Mr. Minister, everything has been listed clearly. The weapons and equipment provided by Mr. Jiang are not the slightest bit different. The quality is also very reliable, and it has even exceeded our expectations.”
"Jiang, it's a pleasure to work with you!" Lu Lide immediately beamed with joy.
Then, he immediately ordered his soldiers to move all the gun boxes and ammunition boxes.
Suddenly, he looked at the tanks, armored vehicles, and helicopters with a troubled expression.
200 tanks, 400 combat vehicles, and 30 helicopters. He did not have enough manpower. Only a small number of people knew how to operate tanks and armored vehicles.
Seeing Lu Reid's expression, Jiang Cheng patted his shoulder and said,"Don't worry, my people can drive, every single one of them can. Otherwise, how could they be qualified to be instructors!”
"Jiang, you're so thoughtful!" Lu Reid smiled awkwardly.
"Oh right, once this batch of weapons and equipment is taken over by my National Defense Force, the outside world will definitely be in an uproar. If the ambassadors of various countries or the media ask about it, what should I say?”Lu Reid stared at Jiang Cheng, wanting to hear his suggestion.
" Future president, we will discuss this again tonight. We will remain silent for now. The world will be shocked by us, and Erria will change because of you.”Jiang Cheng grinned and turned to look at Lu You."Later, send someone to drive these big guys and follow behind our convoy. No, protect us. After all, Elijah is not safe now!”
"Understood, Boss!" Lu You's iconic salute was full of military style.
"Jiang, you're still the smartest!" Lu Reid couldn't help but give him a thumbs up.
One had to know that Bult and Mugus were still in an intense battle. The supporters behind the two of them were not to be trifled with. They were the United States and the Northern Bear Nation!
Perhaps at this time, the intelligence departments of the two countries were already busy.
