Chapter 81 Steel Pipe + Gas Tank "No!" Lin Chenran replied with a wry smile. He knew in his heart that the price of the Apocalypse Tank was too expensive. Compared to the Type 80 tank, it is incredibly expensive; If compared with the Eagle Sauce's M1 tank, it is even more dwarfed. The Yan country's military is now stretched to the limit, and being able to come up with funds to purchase 100 Apocalypse tanks is already doing its best to "empty the family's wealth." How should these one hundred expensive Apocalypse tanks be deployed? Yan State has a vast territory, a long border and borders many countries. To effectively cover such a vast territory, one hundred Apocalypse tanks are undoubtedly just a drop in the bucket. Just like a drop of rain falling into the vast ocean, it is difficult to play a substantial role.
Song Xiyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief: "It seems that the deterrent effect of these tanks is far greater than their practical significance." Displaying these 100 powerful Apocalypse tanks to the outside world can have a certain deterrent effect, showing other countries that Yan State has strong military strength, and making those countries that covet Yan State fearful. "One hundred Apocalypse tanks have already cost the military a fortune. Unless military spending increases, the military will not purchase Apocalypse tanks in the short term." Lin Chenran changed his tone and said, "Even if the military does not purchase them on a large scale, we must manufacture the Apocalypse tank as soon as possible." "After all, our customers are not just the military, but also other countries." That’s true. Even if the Yan Country’s military does not purchase the Apocalypse tanks from the 077 Mechanical Military Factory, there are still many foreign customers waiting for them! Especially the Saudi Kingdom in the Camel Region, they can't wait to get the Apocalypse Tank. Then show off your muscles to the outside world. Let some countries that are ready to make moves give up their inappropriate thoughts. In the camel area, the endless plains are very suitable for tank driving. "I know. Let's give the order to speed up the development of the Apocalypse Tank project." Upon hearing this, Song Xiyun immediately gave Lin Chenran a promise. "Chenran, during the time you were in Maoxiong, a message came from the camel area that the Damu Kingdom (Silly Damu) wanted to obtain a batch of weapons and equipment from us." Song Xiyun's expression was very calm and his tone was also flat, but his heart was actually not as calm as he appeared. "What? The Great Wood Nation? They want to obtain weapons and equipment from us?" Hearing this news, Lin Chenran couldn't help but ask questions. This…… Lin Chenran felt a little surprised and confused. The Eagle Sauce has made it clear that it cannot provide weapons and equipment to the Damu Kingdom.
Originally, Song Xiyun planned to let his employees directly reject Damuguo's request. Because they have no way to provide weapons and equipment to each other. Even if you want to do it secretly, it is impossible. Once discovered, the consequences will be disastrous. Yan State will definitely fall into a very passive situation. By then, Yanguo will be condemned by international public opinion. Faced with this situation, the Yan State military will certainly not sit idly by and will inevitably take action. Just use the tactic of "killing the chicken to scare the monkey" and make the 077 Mechanical Military Factory responsible for this matter. And still be responsible to the end. Later, Song Xiyun remembered what his factory manager Lin Chenran once said: "Don't let go of any customer!" So, he decided to tell Lin Chenran about this and listen to his opinion. Song Xiyun asked his employees to make it clear to the representative of Damuguo in the Camel area that his factory director was on a business trip to Maoxiong and he had to wait until he came back before making a judgment. Now that Lin Chenran is back, Song Xiyun reports the situation directly. After thinking for a moment, Lin Chenran felt that this deal was worth doing! Since weapons and equipment cannot be provided, civilian supplies can be provided. Learn about water pipes and gas tanks!!! These are civilian products and are not on the restricted lists of the United States and other countries. "Chenran, you won't really provide weapons and equipment to the Damu Kingdom in the Camel region, right?" Song Xiyun looked at Lin Chenran's expression and asked with some concern. "Of course not, I just want to provide them with some civilian supplies." Lin Chenran explained mysteriously. "Civilian supplies?" "The Great Wood Nation wants weapons and equipment!" Song Xiyun became puzzled. How could civilian products and weapons and equipment be related? "Mr. Song, you're anxious again!" Lin Chenran said helplessly to Song Xiyun. "Don't be impatient, let me explain it to you slowly." Lin Chenran smiled slightly, feeling secretly proud in his heart. He knew that this was a good opportunity to make money. "Huh?" Song Xiyun looked at Lin Chenran in confusion, wondering what Lin Chenran was up to? "Go ahead and talk. I'm listening!" Song Xiyun waved his hand, indicating that Lin Chenran should continue speaking. Lin Chenran cleared his throat and said to Song Xiyun in a low voice: "I have a heavy mortar here that is very suitable for the Damu Kingdom." After saying that, he blinked mysteriously. "What? Heavy mortar?" Song Xiyun widened his eyes, his face full of disbelief. "Can we avoid the blockade? If not, no matter how powerful the weapons and equipment are, they will be useless." Song Xiyun frowned, and doubts arose in his heart. It is not an easy task to transport weapons into Damu Country. Lin Chenran smiled and answered confidently: "Of course! We just need to make some minor changes."
Then, Lin Chenran picked up a piece of paper and a pen from the table and started drawing. That's right, he was drawing a simplified version of a heavy mortar. There was a gas tank drawn on the paper, filled with high explosives, and a long steel pipe was used as a gun barrel. "Ok?" Song Xiyun looked at the object in front of him blankly, and asked puzzledly: "Chenran, is this a heavy mortar?" He stared at the object that looked like a heavy mortar, but he felt something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it. Song Xiyun was even more confused. He asked, "What material is it made of? I can't understand it no matter how hard I look at it." Lin Chenran continued, "Although we cannot provide military steel cannon barrels to Damu Country, we can provide civilian steel tubes." "We have a lot of this high-strength special civilian steel." Song Xiyun suddenly realized: "Are you the various scrapped warship steels we imported from the Russian bear?" Song Xiyun finally understood the cleverness of it. He said excitedly: "I see! In this way, the Great Wood Kingdom can purchase civilian steel pipes to lay water pipes, thus cleverly avoiding the blockade." The Damu Kingdom purchased a large number of steel pipes from the 077 Mechanical Military Factory for laying water pipes. If it is subsequently dug out and used for other purposes, it will have nothing to do with the 077 Mechanical Arsenal. 077 Mechanical Arsenal: I only sold steel pipes and gas tanks to the Damu Kingdom, and I didn’t know that they would be used on the battlefield. No, you can just sever your ties directly. (End of this chapter)
