"We can accept this price.”
Shulman glanced at Taylor and gave a decisive answer.
Nothing else-
Just like he said before, he didn't want to close the deal anyway.
On the surface, this was an order worth millions of pounds for dozens of warships.
But in reality, this was not a simple transaction, but a political drama.
There was a great deal of attention paid to which country to purchase armaments from.
Shulman was already certain that Rowe would choose the English team.
Then it didn't matter how he bid or how Rowei bargained.
In any case, it was over as long as he agreed.
And if he agreed, Taylor would definitely be anxious.
If Shulman snatched the order, Taylor would definitely be labeled as incompetent in England.
Therefore, no matter how harsh the price was, as long as it was not beyond their limits.
He would never refuse.
Therefore, even if he had to lose money, he had to close this deal no matter what!
"Don't eat the sour radish!"
Sure enough, just as Shulman opened his mouth, Taylor immediately glared at him.
He looked like he wanted to eat him up.
Taylor could tell that this American was really crazy!
It was a good business deal, but you actually negotiated it like this!
"Mr. Luo."
Taylor gritted his teeth and said," This price is acceptable to England.”
Although he was extremely unwilling and unhappy, it was just as Shulman thought.
He had no choice.
Take ten thousand steps back.
Even if he really lost money because of this, he wasn't the one losing money anyway. What was there to worry about?
On the other hand, if this deal was successful, he would buy the domestic newspapers to write a big story about it.
Instead, he could become a hero of England.
Why?
Because he won this order from the hateful Americans!
Yes, the Americans were the main point!
If it was just a one-on-one business deal with Rowei, it didn't really matter if it was successful or not.
However, when the Americans intervened, the nature of the matter changed.
Other things were not important, but the English would never allow themselves to lose to the Americans.
If the order was snatched away by the Americans, his position as ambassador would be over.
If he could 'defeat' the Americans and get the order, he could even take this opportunity to go further.
Therefore, no matter how one looked at it, Taylor had no reason to refuse.
The current situation did not allow him to refuse.
"Very good."
Luo Wei chuckled and said," Since both of you have agreed to this price, then let me state my request. I need 10 cruisers, 20 destroyer and 20 submarines for a total of 2.2 million pounds.”
He was only prepared to ask for a quarter of this amount.
However, now that the United States and the United Kingdom were fighting, he had to take the opportunity to give the other party some benefits.
Only when the order was large enough would the other party be willing to be a sucker.
Moreover, he had actually gained an advantage.
He might not be able to get this price next time.
"Sure."
Taylor said in a deep voice," English can provide all of these, but we can only provide half of the first batch of orders.”
Although the order could be shared between the two countries.
However, Taylor had already suffered a huge loss, so he absolutely could not allow the Americans to take advantage of him!
"No problem."
Rowe chuckled. He didn't mind agreeing to Taylor's condition.
"That's a pity."
Shulman sighed softly, as if he was upset about losing this order.
However, there was a hint of mockery and joy in his eyes.
They had fallen into his trap so easily. These Anglo barbarians were only so-so.
"Mr. Luo."
Taylor looked at Shulman's " dejected " expression and immediately became arrogant." I'll go back and draw up a contract with the domestic power generation company. Don't worry, it won't take more than two days.”
Although he was tricked this time, as long as he could defeat the Americans, everything would be worth it.
"Of course, my friend."
Luo Wei shook hands with him with a smile." Do you want me to send you? My friend."
"No need."
Taylor looked at Shulman mockingly." You should comfort Mr. Shulman. He must be in a bad mood right now.”
"Oh, this is terrible!"
Shulman held his head dejectedly.
And Taylor, in this happy mood of being above others, turned around and left.
"Tsk."
After Taylor left, Shulman was no longer depressed. His eyes were filled with mockery." Foolish Anglo barbarians, do you really think you've taken advantage of me?”
The US had no intention of snatching this order. He was just trying to make things difficult for Taylor.
Unfortunately, Taylor failed to see through this.
"Mr. Luo."
Shulman chuckled." Then I'll take my leave as well.”
"Mr. Shulman."
Luo Wei chuckled." Aren't you going to talk about our cooperation?”
"Oh?"
Shulman's expression changed slightly." How?”
He had thought that this was the end of the matter, but he did not expect there to be a turning point.
"I still have an order to hand over to the US.”
Luo Wei raised two fingers and said slowly," Twenty destroyer and twenty submarines for a total price of six million dollars. How about that?”
"Of course."
The corners of Shulman's mouth curled up slightly. He had only planned to trick Taylor.
He did not expect there to be such a pleasant surprise.
How could he refuse such a good thing?
"Other than that."
Luo Wei paused and continued," As I said before, your country plans to build six battleships, but as far as I know, your country is planning to reduce the order and only build two of them.”
"If you don't mind, I'm willing to take over the remaining four ships.”
Shulman's expression changed slightly.
Shulman actually knew nothing about the plan to build the battleships.
This was an order from the navy. How could an ambassador like him know about it?
Rowe's accurate description of the cost had already shocked Shulman.
Now that the other party had said that they planned to cancel the order, Shulman was even more shocked.
You already knew that he was just planning to cancel the order.
How many people do you have in the US government?
"Mr. Luo."
Even though he was shocked, Shulman still hurriedly said," Please tell me in detail.”
"Of course."
Luo Wei chuckled." The cost of these six Battlecruisers is 550,000 pounds each. I can buy four of them for 2.2 million pounds, but I have one condition.”
"Please speak."
Shulman's expression changed, and his attitude became especially respectful.
After all, no matter what era it was, no matter what skin color you were, as long as you had money, you were a boss!
"I don't need four battlecruisers.”
Luo Wei said slowly," I need to transform two of them into aircraft carriers.”
"An aircraft carrier?"
Shulman was stunned for a moment, seemingly at a loss.
In fact, aircraft carriers had already appeared in this era, but they were not taken seriously.
