America's Big Hero

Besides, the devil knows if there is a wrong 'take'...

Of course, this is none of Sean's business. It is estimated that at least he will not make such a fuss when he is alive.

Not thinking too much, Sean asked Redman to open a tactical nuclear bomb again to have a look, almost all of them were iron bumps.

"Tell me, can you find a small island to try?" Sean turned his head to look at Redman, and said slowly.

Redman turned pale in shock, and hugged Sean, "Sir, boss, this idea is too dangerous, this is absolutely not allowed!"

"Once the private possession of the nuclear bomb is made public, you are finished!"

Sean shook off Redman, curled his lips, okay.

In fact, it’s okay for some people to know. At most, they can say that Sean has persecution paranoia, and they won’t say anything else, but it’s too much for you to detonate one publicly just to see the effect.

"Boss, if you're really interested in watching it, you can tell the Wujiao Building that you can go and watch it when they are conducting nuclear tests. It's not a big deal." Redman reassured.

That's right, Xiao En suddenly realized that this might be a misunderstanding. In his eyes, nuclear bombs are so old-fashioned, but he just forgot that his identity is different now.

One day later, Kuching, airport.

Sean's private jet landed here.

Nuclear bombs can't be shipped back to the United States. It's not that Sean can't take them back. Will anyone dare to check his plane after it lands at Newark Airport?

The problem is that it's useless to take it back. This is not a grenade, you can throw it in your hand. Of course, if you have to detonate it manually, it's not impossible.

Normally, ballistic missiles are used to launch this thing, and Dong 1 can complete this task, and it is impossible for Sean to deploy Dong 1 in the United States.

At present, the dozens of Dong 1s in his hands are all arranged in Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and northern Africa.

Therefore, Sean finally chose to send the six big toys to Natuna Island, find a small island there, and build an underwater weapon depot for storage.

I didn't stay in Kuching much, and I didn't go to see my great grandson. The reason why I landed here is because there is no large airport built on Natuna Island.

From the pier directly to Natuna by boat, Sean asked about the maintenance of this thing.

"It's fairly well-maintained. I checked this batch of goods. It's been five years since the last maintenance, so it's not in a hurry." Redman said with a smile.

"Do nuclear bombs have a lifespan?"

"Yes, uranium bombs were used in the past, but later plutonium-239 was used. Plutonium is formed by the transformation of uranium-238 through neutron irradiation. It is cheaper, less difficult to manufacture, more powerful, and has a half-life of up to 24000 years."

"This thing can be preserved for 24000 years?" Sean was surprised.

"No, no, that's not the way to calculate it. It's more complicated. You just need to know that the plutonium bombs in the early days of the Soviet Union can only be stored for 10 years, while the United States can keep them for 15 years." Redman said proudly.

"No matter how good America is, they won't sell it to me!" Sean rolled his eyes, "What about now?"

"The early plutonium bombs were disassembled and diluted for civilian use. Now the nuclear bombs of the Soviets can be kept for 70 years, and those of the United States can be kept for 100 years. Our stuff is good!"

"Maintenance." Sean has nothing to say about Redman's pride, it's good, it's better than traitors, so he still doesn't feel at ease.

"The high-precision mechanical and electronic devices, ballistic computers, electronic components and other metal and plastic parts here will have to be replaced within a certain period of time. The only problem is that we need to produce the parts separately, and we can't mass-produce them. Made in a laboratory, this..." Redman spread his hands.

"It's easy to handle. I have many laboratories under my name. You can dismantle some of them in advance and send them for imitation, so that you will be helpless when the time comes." Sean waved his hand, money has never been a problem.

There are only six, and it is not like maintaining tens of thousands like the United States, which costs tens of billions of dollars a year.

It is actually relatively simple to store this thing, ordinary reinforced concrete buildings are fine, and the most important thing is to prevent theft, which is not a big problem.

When it comes to stealing, Sean is an expert!

……

After solving the problem of placing the 6 nuclear bombs, Xiao En can be regarded as fulfilling a wish, so he is quite satisfied.

By the way, I was concerned about the demolition and reconstruction issues here on Natuna Island.

The Indonesian side has completely given up on being bad, and the Brooke Dynasty is still doing its best, but many people, especially many indigenous people who can't write their own names, are generally difficult to deal with.

You reason with him, and he uses force with you. The Brooke Dynasty, who listened to the persuasion, took it away directly, and the rest was handed over to the pirates under Neil.

Then, there was no more, and the last group of diehards couldn't stand it for a long time, and ran away on the wrecked boat at the pier...

The original houses are extremely dilapidated, and few houses can be seen. Now they have been bulldozed and completely rebuilt.

According to Sean's plan, Natuna Island will be exempted from financial taxation, inheritance taxation, a tourist attraction, and open the gambling and sex industries at the same time.

In addition, this place will be an important transit point from Asia to Europe in the future, and it will undertake functions such as cargo transfer, ship repair, petrochemical, financial transfer, etc. Natuna Island is now Sean’s private territory, except that the diplomacy is in charge of Brooke , Others are all about Sean, including the law.

Sean is not worried about law and order issues at all, he decides whether he is right or wrong... he should be worried about those who don't abide by the law!

In terms of design, a team from the United States was used. According to the estimation of the design team, docks, docks, main roads, urban drainage, sewage treatment, line laying, signal tower planning, city government buildings, street landscapes, parks, squares...all are infrastructure projects.

Not to mention the design cost, these projects alone, according to the calculation of the US team, cost 75 billion US dollars.

After all, Natuna is just an island with no basic industry at all, including food, drink and congestion for workers, all of which need to be transported from abroad, which is very expensive.

This is the basis for building a city!

This is all negligible.

How could Sean spend such a large amount of money on this? The concept of 75 billion cash flow can beat the pound sterling!

So, after settling the six big treasures, Xiao En turned around and flew straight to Yanjing.

After resting at the palace for a day, Xiao En went to the construction department the next day. As soon as the planning drawings were displayed, the department was shocked!

It’s not that the ministries and commissions haven’t done such a big project, even projects ten times larger than this one, and it’s not that they haven’t been abroad. The problem is that they were built with aid before, so it would be good if they didn’t pay for it!

Now, earn foreign exchange!

When will the Ministry of Construction be able to earn foreign exchange?

It is now 91, and it is all related to foreign construction to make money in the north. There is no way, whether it is equipment or technology, the north is indeed lagging behind.

It is not difficult to understand the reasons for the vibration of the parts!

"Mr. Xiao En, don't worry, you are an old friend of our Chinese people. If you entrust us with the task, you can rest assured that you will complete the task in the shortest possible time!" The leader patted his chest and assured Xiao En.

"If you don't worry, I won't come here, so let's talk about the price." Sean didn't mention the quality.

As we all know, in the Kingdom of Heaven, the best products are sold to foreigners at all times, and the remaining defective products are sold domestically.

There are even more conscientious companies that use defective products to make money domestically and use them to subsidize high-end products for foreigners. Ahem, don't think about it.

Closer to home, when the price was mentioned, the leader was a little dumbfounded. He looked up at the watch on the wall. Has it been 10 minutes since he came in and talked?

Or is it that several days have passed, but I just didn't realize it... that's outrageous!

He didn't give any preparation time, and he couldn't figure out what price to ask.

But looking at Xiao En's eyes, is there any way for him to shirk it? Could it be that he, a big leader, can't make the decision? It also seems too irresponsible and amateurish, so how can he win the trust of international friends.

In the high-level plan, one of the purposes of going abroad to aid Xinjiang is to demonstrate the power of the north, and the ability of large and super-large buildings is a manifestation of comprehensive capabilities.

Therefore, this order must be won, and the price has never been the most critical factor. Of course, it is good to make money.

He bowed his head and thought for a while, and the big leader stretched out a finger to make a comparison.

Sean was taken aback, and the application was in a trance for a while, as if he had seen a legendary scene. Could this be the revision of history!

Immediately, he couldn't help but burst out laughing. The big leader who laughed was puzzled, thinking that he had asked for a high price, "The price is still negotiable."

"Okay, one billion is one billion!" Sean patted his thigh cooperatively, "That's it!"

"Pfft!" The big leader immediately sprayed, he really couldn't control it, after all, he is not a professional negotiator, he was [-] million for a while!

Unable to get excited, he quickly added, "Ahem, I, I mean dollars."

"Of course it's US dollars. Does the leader look down on me? Can I still give ringgit!" Sean looked unhappy, as if he had been greatly insulted.

"Haha, of course not, of course not!" Leaders are professional and generally don't laugh unless they can't help it!

91 years, one billion dollars, what a concept!

Chapter 561: What is Sean best at?

What is the concept of a billion dollars?

If you have to calculate according to the current exchange rate, that would be boring. Under normal circumstances, only the black market in this era can reflect the real situation of the exchange rate.

With regard to finance, the management in the north is quite strict, and this is where the old horse fell.

Of course, it's not that it's bad, it's this conservative state that makes it impossible for the outside world to take advantage of it.

Therefore, one billion US dollars is what surprised the leaders of the Ministry of Construction. Being in charge of construction is their job, and earning foreign exchange should be a surprise. This is the political achievement.

After negotiating the price, the construction department entertained him for a while. After eating and drinking well, Sean got in the car and left in the afternoon.

In fact, Xiao En has a lot of soft sister coins in his hands. Whether it is the foundries that have already started work, or TSMC that Zhang Zhongmou came to work on, they have earned him a huge amount of soft sister coins, but this thing is now The degree of recognition... that is beyond words!

When you spend money, whether you take out soft sister coins or US dollars, you can tell by looking at the attitudes of governments at all levels and enterprises and institutions.

Not to mention outside, it is the nearest Hong Kong Island, no one wants soft sister coins, Sean's attitude towards soft sister coins is to throw them here as working capital, of course, it is not really useless, for example Expansion of factories, such as procurement.

The backlog of daily necessities shipped to Lithuania is the soft girl currency. It is also a good thing for many state-owned factories that are struggling to operate, have a backlog of goods, and cannot pay wages.

This time, Sean is going to continue to get a few ships to send to Ukraine to exchange for a batch of munitions. 200 million tons of munitions seems to be a lot, but in fact that is the case. According to his calculations, it can be consumed within a year at most.

This is still only calculating the consumption of Namibia, Angola, and Morocco. Training, fighting, and bullet consumption are extremely terrifying. In Namibia and Angola, the bullets consumed by two small warlords in a conflict need to be calculated in tons.

There is also training, the bullet consumption of training is even more terrifying!

Soldiers have to learn how to shoot targets and practice repeatedly. This exercise is not only about sights, but more importantly, muscle memory. Otherwise, when they are on the battlefield, they will forget how to open the gun when they are emotional. , but happens from time to time.

And if you want to train soldiers with combat effectiveness, you need to let the soldiers get used to the feeling of bullets and bullets. As the saying goes, it is called courage.

The soldiers are required to lie on the ground or in the trenches, and the instructors shoot directly with machine guns. This is called experiencing the atmosphere of the battlefield.

The instructor was sure that the bullets were shot at a distance of one or two meters above the heads, but the soldiers lying on the ground didn't feel that way. It was really the bullets flying around their heads, and they couldn't bear the pressure and stood up. If you run around, you will really be beaten to pieces, and then more people will panic, and it is normal to urinate and excrete.

It's not that blacks can't fight, it's that these African blacks are not well trained.

Is it because the warlords don't know how to train soldiers?

This is not before the First World War. Even if it was not possible, you can hire instructors from any big country for a little money, [-] dollars a month, and a lot of grassroots instructors are willing to do this job, so why is it still so cheap?

To put it bluntly, the warlords have no money for professional training.

In the African market, the wholesale price of a round of 7.26 standard ammunition sold to warlords is 1 US dollar, and the market price is as high as 3 US dollars. After all, it is time to shoot, who cares about how many dollars it is!

It takes at least several thousand rounds of ammunition to train a qualified soldier. For example, in the U.S. military, it takes 240 hours for the shooting training of recruits alone, and the average consumption of ammunition per person is 2000 rounds.

How much is a human life worth in Africa?

In addition to food, drink and other training, a recruit has to invest close to [-] US dollars. It is not known whether he will survive the battlefield. African warlords are crazy to spend such a high price on training!

This time Sean is going to train Jonas Savimbi's 3000 'elite' troops. According to the estimate of the umbrella training department, [-] tons of ammunition is not enough. Artillery needs training.

This time Sean plans to go back to Ukraine with another 500 million tons of arms, and open an underground arms trading market in Angola, specializing in supplying small arms dealers in Africa, which can make a lot of money.

……

Originally, Xiao En planned to stay in Yanjing for a while, and celebrate the new year directly. Anyway, it is no problem for the palace to accommodate his big family.

Security issues can also be guaranteed, and the government here also welcomes it. The problem is that the plan has not changed quickly. When Lao Bu called, Xiao En had to leave the family's women and children in Yanjing, and rushed to Washington on a special plane.

In the evening, at Old Bu's house, Aunt Barbara still cooked the meal by herself. After eating, Old Bu took Xiao En into the study.

A very familiar scene, here Sean has made a lot of contributions to the United States.

"What's the matter? I'm in such a hurry. I'm going to have fun in the north for a while."

"Do you still remember the North American trade agreement you mentioned before?" the old cloth head said with a wry smile.

Sean opened his mouth wide and looked at Old Bu, his face was full of astonishment, "Don't tell me you haven't signed yet? I remember that I was here when I said this last time."

Saying that, Sean pointed to the ground, "The time was a year ago."

The old cloth stall spread his hands, his face full of helplessness.

"No..." Xiao En's expression was contorted, and he wanted to curse, but he shook his arm again, "It's been a year, and I haven't signed it yet, what are you doing? Uncle, didn't you say to exchange some terms with the donkey party last time?" , make some concessions, and pass this agreement?"

Although he knew that the efficiency of the United States was extremely low, he did not expect it to be so low.

"It's not that easy. If it was that easy, I wouldn't be looking for you back." Old Bu sighed.

"Why!" Sean looked puzzled, "The Donkey Party pushed, but the Elephant Party gave in. What resistance is there?"

"There are too many resistances, such as Canada and Mexico, such as many domestic congressmen." Old Bu began to explain the reason for such a long delay to Sean.

First of all, this kind of free trade agreement, even if it is the United States, does not do whatever it wants. There is no way to sign the agreement with a gun at the head of someone else, and it is not Sean... ahem.

The tripartite agreement is bound to be mutually beneficial, but in essence, the interests of the United States are in conflict with Canada and Mexico. Americans want to make more money. Where does the money come from?
