Mu Qinglu thought for a moment and said,
"I still have 100,000 silver dollars in cash at home. If we add in the land and real estate, I have about 300,000 silver dollars."
Mu Yuan didn't know if he didn't listen. He was shocked when he heard that. He didn't expect his family's assets to be so huge.
During this period, 100,000 silver dollars was definitely an astronomical figure. It was silver dollars, and thousands of silver dollars could buy a courtyard house.
100,000 yuan in cash was unimaginable. No wonder those bandits and the town's security guards wanted to seize the Mu family's property.
With such a huge amount of assets, not to mention Anmin Town, even Linyuan County would not have so much money.
Mu Yuan looked at the wood spirit and smiled.
"Is it enough?"
The wood spirit finally smiled and said,
"No need, young master. 10,000 silver coins is enough. Most of the money is spent on labor and food. There's a mine in Snake Head Mountain 300 m away from Anmin Town. There's an iron mine on the mountain. The quality of the ores is not bad. Besides the iron mine, there are many other rare associated ores. Snake Head Mountain has all the ores that I need. I want to build our arsenal on it."
Mu Yuan smiled and said,
"I didn't expect you to be so clear. You must have probed it before, right?"
The wood spirit smiled in embarrassment.
"The commander is really perceptive."
Now that Mu Yuan thought about it, he suddenly realized that the wood spirit had already known that he wanted to build an arsenal. It made sense. The system only gave him so many weapons and manpower, so he could only rely on himself for weapons. There was no other way.
Fortunately, Mu Yuan had an all-rounded talent. Not only did he know all kinds of techniques, but most importantly, his management level was extremely high.
During the Second World War, although there was a difference in the quality of workers between the Condor and the Dwarf Nation, the difference was not particularly large. However, due to the huge difference in production management between the two factories, the difference in production between the two sides was caused.
And the management level of the wood spirits is definitely the best in this world.
Mu Qinglu finally knew what Mu Yuan wanted to do, but she covered her mouth in disbelief.
asked in surprise
"Brother, you said you want to start an arsenal?! How is that possible? I heard that building an arsenal requires a lot of money. Our family's money is not enough."
Mu Qinglu was really afraid that Mu Yuan would mess things up. Although Mu Qinglu did not know how much money the Munitions Factory needed to invest, she knew that the Munitions Factory was not something that a small family like the Mu Family could afford. The most important thing was that no one knew about it. How could they do it?
At that time, wouldn't it be a waste of money and nothing could be done?
She was really a little worried because Mu Yuan had just recovered. She thought that Mu Yuan was fooling around.
However, Mu Yuan pulled Mu Qinglu's hand and smiled.
"Qinglu, I know what I'm doing. Don't worry, my arsenal doesn't need that much money. Didn't the wood spirit just say that it only needs 10,000 silver dollars? Besides, the wood spirit knows all kinds of technology. How about this, give us a month. I'll build the arsenal in a month, and you can decide whether to support me or not, okay?”
Although Mu Yuan could decide to invest all his money, he would not do so because he respected Mu Qinglu. She was his wife, not his enemy. If it was anyone else who invested such a huge amount of money, they would be lucky if they did not scold him, let alone give Mu Yuan 10,000 silver dollars.
Mu Qinglu looked at Mu Yuan's smiling face and confirmed again.
"Alright, Brother. All the funds in this family are yours. I'm just afraid that you'll take them all out at once. It wasn't easy for Father to earn this family business. You don't blame me, right?"
Mu Yuan held Mu Qinglu's little hand and pinched her nose, smiling.
"Why would I? Father chose such a good wife for me. Why would I blame you?”
Mu Qinglu blushed and lowered her head.
At this moment, the wood spirit coughed.
" Ahem, Young Master, I'm really not hungry. Give me the money and I'll get it done for you right away. Time waits for no one."
Actually, the wood spirit just felt a little awkward here.
He felt like he was a light bulb now
Mu Qinglu lowered her head. Her face was so red that it was almost dripping blood.
Mu Yuan's expression was normal as he smiled and said,
"Alright, let's eat. The food is getting cold."
The wood spirit cursed in its heart.
"Do you want me to eat dog food?"
Soon, after the meal, Mu Qinglu asked the housekeeper to bring out a box.
He took out ten checks worth 1,000 silver dollars and handed them to Mu Yuan.
Mu Yuan directly handed it to the wood spirit. When the wood spirit took the check, she smiled and said,
"Young Master, don't worry. You won't waste this 10,000 silver dollars."
Then he turned around and left.
Mu Qinglu looked at the back of the wood spirit and said worriedly,
"Brother, are you really not worried?”
Mu Yuan pulled Mu Qinglu to sit down and said with a smile,
"I believe that he won't worry about it. Whether it succeeds or not, there will be a result in a month. What's the point of worrying about this? If it doesn't succeed, it will be a waste of 10,000 silver dollars. If it succeeds, our family can not only build a larger number of people with the help of the Munitions Factory, but we can also make money by selling weapons. Weapons are the most profitable during this period. The production cost of a rifle is about 5 silver dollars. Even the cheapest Hanyang brand would cost that much?”
Mu Qinglu shook her head. She really didn't know that the Mu family had a wide range of businesses. Flour, clothing, kerosene, and matches were all shipped from other places to Kang Yuan to sell. Mu Qinglu didn't know the price and profit of the firearms.
Mu Yuan smiled and said,
" The most common Hanyang rifle is priced at around 100 silver dollars at this time. Because of the arms embargoes from foreign countries, the price will increase on this basis. A foreign rifle is generally priced at more than 200 silver dollars, and some even reach more than 300 silver dollars."
"But those warlords are still rushing to buy them, afraid that they can't buy them themselves. If I make a batch of weapons and sell them, how much money do you think I can earn for our Mu family? That's twenty times the profit, and we don't need much shipping. Do you still think that ten thousand silver dollars is a lot?”
Mu Qinglu was stunned. She was not surprised by the firearms business that Mu Yuan mentioned, but was amazed by his idea of building a larger army. Mu Qinglu felt that this scale of army was enough to dominate the towns around the entire Linyuan County, but Mu Yuan was not thinking about the town.
Mu Qinglu suddenly hugged Mu Yuan.
Mu Yuan was stunned for a moment. Even Mu He, who was standing beside Mu Yuan, cried.
"Sob, sob, sob. Young Master, you, you're not thinking of rebelling, are you?"
Mu Yuan was speechless.
"What nonsense is this? What era is it now? What rebellion? But I don't want our Mu family to be stuck in this Anmin Town. I don't want to stay in this town for the rest of my life.”
Mu Qinglu leaned into Mu Yuan's arms. After a long time, she raised her head and looked at Mu Yuandao with determination.
"Brother, I will support you no matter what you do because you are my husband and the pillar of the Mu family. I believe that brother will definitely be able to do it."
Mu Yuan looked at the girl in his arms. She was so cute that Mu Yuan almost couldn't hold it in anymore.
Fortunately, Mu Yuan held back.
