Rebirth of the Republic of China: The Story of the Chaebol

"The remaining warships can be sold to Longguo by our Ministry of National Defense for 1.3 billion South Yuan. At the same time, we will help you complete a major overhaul of these warships before delivering them to you. If you need to continue to upgrade these warships during this period, you will need to pay additional funds. In addition, we can give you all the supporting parts and materials for these warships for free. This is the greatest sincerity of our Nanhua in this transaction."

As the Defense Minister of South China, Fang Hong has a lot of things to do on a daily basis. After all, he has to manage all the military forces under the name of the South China Federation.

The reason why Sun Jingwen sent him to discuss the deal with the representatives of Longguo this time was mainly to show Nanhua's importance to the deal.

"Okay, we agree to the price of 1.3 billion yuan, but we hope that the money can be paid in another way."

"In what way?"

"We hope that this fund can increase the payment period to ten years. We also hope that you will allow us to use materials to offset the transaction funds."

"Okay, we agree to this condition."

To be honest, Nanhua definitely suffered a huge loss in this transaction with Longguo.

Let's put it this way, although the old ships of the Beitai fleet are quite old, what Nanhua is selling this time is a political fleet. With the combat effectiveness of this fleet with a tonnage of over one million, in addition to encountering several other fleets of Nanhua, this fleet is qualified to fight even if it encounters the navies of the Ugly Country and the Russian Bear.

Take the eight battleships sold by Nanhua this time. Except for the four that were originally purchased from outside, the remaining four were all captured by Nanhua from the Japanese.

Since these battleships fell into Nanhua's hands, Nanhua has been transforming them.

Now, except for the hulls of these eight battleships, all other parts of the ships have been replaced by Nanhua.

Compared to the original name of battleships, these eight big ships should actually be called "arsenal ships".

That’s right, now these eight large ships can launch missiles and torpedoes in addition to naval guns.

If the conditions were right, with the firepower of these eight warships, any one of them would be capable of destroying an entire fleet.

In addition to the battleships, the aircraft carriers, cruisers and destroyers in the fleet of Nanhua have also been basically modified.

In short, after buying this fleet, Longguo is now qualified to compete with any country except Nanhua at sea, except that they are still no match for Nanhua.

The key is that after Longguo has these warships, they will not only be able to ensure the safety of their own coastline in the future, but they will also be able to rely on this batch of warships to develop their own navy.

Let’s put it this way, if this batch of warships of Nanhua, including those that are about to be retired, were put on the arms market, it would be absolutely no problem to sell them for 50 to 60 billion.

Now that Longguo can buy such a fleet with such a small amount of money, who would believe that Nanhua is not taking care of its own relatives?

What’s even more fucked up is that Longguo had to pay for the ship separately this time, and Nanhua hasn’t mentioned anything about interest yet.

Compared with the relationship between European and American countries, the friendship between Nanhua and Longguo is definitely something that many small countries cannot envy.

After talking about the navy and the air force, the next thing is the army.

The relationship between China and Russia has always been complicated.

Logically speaking, the two countries should be considered as countries in the same camp, but the little brother Longguo has never been very interested in the big brother Maoxiong, especially after Longguo had the option of Nanhua, it has been blatantly "disobeying" the big brother's "orders".

The relationship between the two countries today is not considered tense. After all, trade between the two sides is still going on.

But other than that, it's hard to see them communicating with each other.

They are two big countries, and they are also bordering each other. Especially with the various means used by Nanhua, Longguo has taken back all the land that originally belonged to it from the Russian Bear. Now the Russian Bear is even more uncomfortable.

Therefore, compared to the navy, Longguo’s most urgent issue now is the development of the army and air force.

The third-generation aircraft will be available soon, so is it time to upgrade the army’s equipment?

Now Nanhua has become the biggest creditor of Longguo. Since you already owe Nanhua so much money, can you owe more?

When the equipment of the South China Army was placed in front of Longguo, Longguo's negotiating representatives were really dazzled.

Whenever I see one, I want one. Because Longguo is already full of Xihua and Nanhua equipment, the development of Longguo's army equipment can be said to be in the same line with Nanhua. Therefore, Longguo is also clear that the army equipment produced by Nanhua is definitely the most suitable for Longguo's use.
