Double travel through the Republic of China, start with zero yuan to buy and fight against Japan

Chapter 289 Powell, Congratulations, You're Going to Be Rich Again

The next morning, Zhao Yun was waiting for Powell in the conference room early.

He believed that the other party had prepared the contract and had also asked for relevant information.

Sure enough, at half past eight, Powell arrived with his men.

"General Zhao, are you not late?" Powell said hurriedly.

"No, I wonder if you brought the contract and good news?"

The good news he mentioned was naturally the confirmed delivery time of the goods.

"Of course, I contacted the Chinese side yesterday afternoon and asked them to discuss the delivery time, otherwise the contract cannot be concluded."

It turned out that Powell had contacted home after leaving yesterday.

After receiving the news, the president of the country immediately held an emergency meeting with others.

Those who came and went were the bosses of military-industrial enterprises and capitalists.

The capitalists still wanted to lend money to Zhao Yun, but unfortunately the other party paid them in full again just to do this settlement business.

That is a huge amount of money exceeding 17 billion, and there is a possibility that a layer of oil will be left after it passes through the hands.

This is also the reason why they rushed here, after all, they don’t have any loans.

"There is a situation now. General Zhao Er requires us to confirm the delivery time. It must be earlier than Xiao Ri. And we can only deliver to Xiao Ye Zi if the goods arrive first. This is a prerequisite."

"Although my youngest son also spent 11 billion here, the other party has much more than him. How can we accept this overwhelming wealth in our hands?"

"The domestic economy is not doing well right now. As you know, our financial crisis has just passed, or it has not yet completely passed, so a large number of jobs are needed."

"If we get this order, the economic income of our people will no longer be a problem within two years."

"Although the order is urgent and our production capacity can complete it quickly, it also requires a fixed time. Please give us a specific answer from your manufacturer."

The bigwigs of military-industrial enterprises had already made preparations. After all, they had already learned the news and did their homework after returning.

At this time they stood up and started speaking.

"Mr. President, with the current productivity of our companies, if we run three shifts a day without stopping the machines or people, we can deliver all the products in one and a half months."

"This is based on the premise that there is some stock in the warehouse, but this will extend the delivery time for Xiao Rizi by one and a half months."

"Okay, let's not worry about the small life for now, and give them to me slowly."

"Besides, they also bought it from other countries. Even if they don't have ours, they still have support from other countries, so they are not in a hurry for these things."

"If they ask, we will say that our production capacity is limited and we are unable to supply the goods, and ask them to wait."

"But we have to be more careful this time. It doesn't matter if the Japanese find out later. After all, we still have loans to pay back."

After the president finished speaking, everyone applauded.

In this way, the accurate information was sent to Powell, and he drew up the contract and came to find Zhao Yun early in the morning.

At this moment, Zhao Yun was looking at the contract in the conference room. He had seen that the delivery time was one and a half months later.

"Powell, you did a great job. I am very satisfied with this time."

"Thank you for your praise. Your large investment this time has also saved our country's economy. We are also very grateful to you."

"That's easy. After all, we are strategic partners. Although you also sell weapons to the Japanese, it doesn't matter because I have countermeasures in my hands. I'm not worried."

"Yes, I didn't know about it at the time, but I found out later. I'm very sorry, General Zhao."

He really didn't know that when the country sold weapons to the Japanese, the ambassador here was not informed.

"This is normal. As an ambassador, you cannot know everything in the country. This is also a measure to maintain confidentiality. I don't blame you."

"But I still want to congratulate you. You are going to get rich again."

Yes, because he can get a little kickback for every transaction, and this time the kickback may be more, but this time the kickback is given to him by the boss of the military-industrial enterprise and the farmer, not Zhao Yun.

"You gave me face so you ordered such a large batch of weapons, ammunition and supplies. Otherwise, I would not have this opportunity."

"Okay, go back and tell your president that if you need money, come to me. We are short of everything in our country. We need a lot of supplies and talent, and you happen to have all of that."

"I promise to allow your companies and individuals to operate in the area under my control. I will set up special legal protections to protect your competition as long as it is reasonable and legal."

This was definitely a surprise for Powell and the president because it solved a big problem for them.

"Okay, General Zhao, since you said so, I will definitely convey your message."

He left excitedly, eager to report the good news back home and present it to the president as part of his political achievements.

Zhao Yun did this in order to gain the support of a major power internationally, and he really needed these supplies to improve the living standards of the local people.

Although he could get supplies from his future time and space, it would be a good choice to get channels from here. After all, it was money printed by himself, so it was a disguised zero-yuan purchase. He just had to invest some paper and machine costs.

And the cost of paper had been solved, and cloth produced by one of John Bull's enterprises could be used as raw material.

At this time, the National Defense Army was holding an emergency meeting. What they wanted to decide was which two armies to send to support Zhao Yun in addition to the Sixth and Seventh Armies of the Northeast Army.

"Tell me, who is willing to go and fight the Japanese next?"

At this time, Liu Gui, commander of the Third Army of the Sichuan Army, spoke.

"We decided to go ahead. With such good weapons, what are we afraid of? Besides, we came out of the Sichuan Army base with small plans, so we will not hide behind and act like turtle sons."

Wu Defa saw that he had expressed his opinion and nodded.

"Okay, then you should immediately order the entire Third Army to go out. You stay here and send a deputy."

"Okay, Commander Wu."

He left here to issue orders.

In fact, the Sixth and Seventh Armies of the Northeast Army have all set out. They should arrive at the front line this evening, which is the valley between Chaoyang County and the Jinzhou defense line.

At this time Zhang Jian also stood up and said.

"Our entire Fifth Army is also going to fight. I hope you brothers won't stop us. You still have a chance."

As the Fifth Army of the National Defense Force, the original Northwest Army was still very strong in combat effectiveness.

In fact, several of them also wanted to go to the front line, because they had such good weapons and it would be uncomfortable if they didn't use them.

But these people all had reasons to leave, so they were stopped from talking in advance.

When Wu Defa saw the expressions of the crowd, he knew what they were thinking.

"First Army, Second Army, Fourth Army, and Eighth Army, you don't have to worry. The war has already begun, and a million-level battle may break out at any time. To put it bluntly, the number of people in our National Defense Force can only be used in the early stage, so you don't have to worry, there are plenty of battles to fight."

"Once we have completely recaptured the Northeast, we will have no choice but to stay there. Just imagine where we will be without a war to fight."

"Especially the Eighth Army. You must strictly follow the training process. That means you can only go out after three months. I'm not looking down on you. This is to help you get used to the use of equipment and tactics."

In the end, the meeting had already made a decision, so everyone stopped talking and went back to do their own things.
