"Commander Qin, my name is Zhu Ziming, and I work in the Ministry of War. I'm here to represent the Ministry of War to discuss the purchase of firearms.”
When he saw Qin Yi, Zhu Ziming immediately stood up and said politely.
Compared to Xiao Liuzi's envoy, this person was much smarter.
"Commander Qin, I also brought a welcome gift this time. The president asked me to bring it to you.”
Qin Yi curiously took the letter from Zhu Ziming's hands and read it.
When he saw the contents, he sneered, but he still smiled.
"Thank you, President, for your affirmation. It is what we should do to fight against the Japanese invaders.”
The content of the letter was actually praising Qin Yi for resisting the Japanese invaders and acknowledging the existence of the border guards.
This was still helpful to Qin Yi.
After all, Chang Shenkai was the nominal leader of the ancient country, and acknowledging Qin Yi's border guards was also considered giving him a status.
What he valued more was the arms deal.
Only with money in hand could one not panic.
He had spent almost a third of the million yuan he had seized from the traitors and profiteers.
Thus, he continued to provide Chang Shenkai with supplies, hoping that he would be more capable.
Zhu Ziming was very good at observing people's expressions. At the same time, he was also quite tactful in handling things. This was also the reason why Minister He sent him here.
After seeing Qin Yi's expression, he didn't bother with formalities and went straight to the point.
"Commander Qin, you should be clear about the purpose of our visit this time. I wonder if you can take a look at the list of weapons you provided.”
Qin Yi waved his hand, and someone immediately placed a stack of papers on the table.
"Please take a look. We have channels to supply these weapons in large quantities. We definitely won't disappoint President Jiang and Minister He.”
When Huang Baitao contacted them, he only said that he could provide them with a large number of machine guns, cannons, and all kinds of ammunition. He didn't say what it was exactly.
When Zhu Ziming picked up the thick list of weapons and looked at it, his eyes couldn't help but flash with unconcealable shock.
He had some understanding of the various weapons and equipment in the West.
After all, he was one of the people in charge of the military's procurement department, and his main contact was with the western countries.
Naturally, he had some understanding of various weapons.
On the list of weapons provided by Qin Yi, many of them were currently in service in the western countries. Some of them had just entered service not long ago.
This Qin Yi actually had such great power to be able to get all these weapons?
He was very doubtful about this.
For example, this model of the 150mm field howitzer.
He had heard about this cannon from Colonel Bauer, the military advisor of the German Will.
This was a cannon that he had just finished developing, and it had only entered service this year.
Colonel Bauer had deliberately bragged to him about this matter, and he had a deep impression of it.
Even the German army did not have many advanced cannons, but Qin Yi could provide them in large quantities?
However, since Qin Yi dared to give him this list, he only needed to test it out and he would be able to expose this lie.
If it was true, then they would definitely not lose out.
After all, such advanced large-caliber heavy artillery could not be bought with money.
"Commander Qin, may I know the price of this German-made model of the SHH18 howitzer? How much can you provide?"
Qin Yi immediately thought of this classic cannon from World War II.
If it wasn't for the fact that this cannon's performance was inferior to the M59 Long-legged Tom Cannon, he would have wanted to equip it on a large scale.
Qin Yi raised two fingers and said,""This model of cannon is not cheap. Even if you sell it for 20,000 dollars each and the shells for 50 dollars each.”
"Hiss!"
Zhu Ziming couldn't help but take a deep breath. He felt a bit of a toothache.
20,000 USD per door was not cheap.
According to the current exchange rate between the US dollar and the ocean, it was almost 50,000 dollars. One shell was 120 dollars.
However, he did not know that Qin Yi's price was quite kind.
The cannons that the German Will sold to them later were sold for 40,000 US dollars each for 30 times the diameter.
Of course, Qin Yi could also sell it at such a high price, but the more expensive it was, the worse the sales would be.
Anyway, he basically didn't need to pay any cost. He still focused on quantity. The more he bought, the more he could earn.
In history, the Nandu government had only purchased 24 of them because they were too expensive.
Although it was not cheap to sell it for 20,000 dollars, it was not considered expensive.
This price was indeed within their acceptable range.
This was a 150mm caliber heavy cannon.
In the ancient country, where even 70mm caliber cannons were scarce, 150mm caliber cannons were a great deterrent to the warlords.
This time, Zhu Ziming's main mission was the large-caliber artillery that Huang Baitao had mentioned.
Even though he handled things smoothly, he could not help but show a trace of urgency on his face.
"I wonder if there are any real objects? I want to see it with my own eyes."
"Yes, of course there is. General Zhu can personally go and test it.”
Zhu Ziming's eyes lit up. He quickly stood up and said,""Then let's go and take a look.”
Faced with such advanced large-caliber heavy artillery, he was still anxious.
Seeing Zhu Ziming's performance, Qin Yi was overjoyed. It seemed like this deal would be successful.
He wondered how many they were willing to buy. It would be best if they could buy a hundred or eighty.
However, he knew that it was impossible.
