Chapter 109: Who will pay the bill

When Mahamud suddenly heard this sentence, Tan Zhenhua and Zhan Nuozhu inevitably said "Fuck" in their hearts.
Dare to love, this one can speak a few words in Chinese, but this pronunciation is really delightful.
Tan Zhenhua laughed: "Unexpectedly, Colonel Mahmoud knew even this Huaxia's witty remark. It seems that it is also a Huaxia pass."
Mahamud touched the back of his head embarrassedly and replied: "Mr. Tan, don't laugh at me. Huaxia Tong can't talk about it. It's just because I often travel here, so I learned a few words, so don't laugh at me. The pronunciation is substandard, I understand it myself."
Several people laughed.
After this episode, the atmosphere between the three of them became much more harmonious. Jen Nuozhu took the opportunity to ask: "Col. Mahmoud, as far as I know, the supplies for Afkhan’s domestic aid are now mostly from you. It used to be, but it seems that you are not paying the money, right?"
Mahmoud did not hide it. In fact, it was an open secret at all.
He replied: "Mr. Tan is right. At present, the aid supplies to Afkhan are basically purchased by the US CIA and related foundations. Most of the materials used are provided by the US under various names. Aid funds."
"Then if you want to buy these drones, they will pay the bill?" Tan Zhenhua interrupted.
Mahamud replied for a while, "I am afraid it is a bit difficult. Although the US has given military aid funds in name, you may not know that the money is not directly given to us. In fact, the money is paid back. On the books of those institutions in the United States."
This was news that had never been heard before. Tan Zhenhua and Zhan Nuozhu looked at each other, nodded slightly, and then listened quietly.
Just listen to Mahmoud continue to say: "This process is that their Congress has approved the amount of military aid, and then we need to buy what equipment and materials, and then apply to them, and when they approve again, they will buy it. It was sent to us afterwards, and finally written off from the account. But there is one thing, basically they will only buy equipment produced in their own country, and they will give their so-called allies a little bit of oil and water."
This time Zhan Nuozhu and Tan Zhenhua both understood that they would dare to do business well in the United States. These military aids, to put it bluntly, are the benefits that the Congress has approved and distributed to several major military-industrial groups.
Well, this information is worth a bit.
Mahmoud did not realize that he had unintentionally revealed a piece of valuable information. He was still immersed in his own thoughts and continued to ask: "Tan, according to your estimation, if it is mass-produced, this aircraft will be unmanned. How much does the machine cost?"
Tan Zhenhua rubbed his hands hard and said: "In fact, if the materials we need can be imported at the international market price, I think this drone should be able to control the price of about 10,000 US dollars. However, if If you can’t, it’s hard to say.

When Zhan Nuozhu heard this, his eyes dimmed, and he secretly said: Tan Xiaozi, you are too daring to make an offer. Although this drone uses something that is not easy to obtain, he specifically asked Professor Guo. Yes, if it is really going to be mass-produced, apart from the rotor, the other parts together are not worth 800 yuan.
The reason why this prototype is expensive is that the manufacturing method is all manual, which wastes materials and man-hours. It also uses a lot of laboratory materials, plus a lot of computer-aided calculations, which consumes a lot of machine time. (Computers in the early 1980s were sky-high, and of course not cheap), they even went to Ninghang’s experimental wind tunnel to blow the air.
Can this method be inexpensive?
But if you open your mouth, you dare to report 10,000, or U.S. dollars, which is too ridiculous, so you are not afraid to scare people away?
Unexpectedly, Mahmoud was not surprised when he heard this number. Instead, he said: "Well, it's not expensive, it's even cheaper than I expected. Let's talk about it today. I need to ask To make a simple report in China, you may need to communicate with the US to make a decision. In addition, can I take these photos away?"
Zhan Nuozhu laughed: "Of course you can, please." These photos are already selected by Zhan Nuozhu, and the ones that are a little bit secret are selected, except for a few pictures of Mahmoud and his party taken from the air. , Nothing.
Mahmoud stood up, shook hands with the two people in the house, took the photo from Jen Nuozhu, took a deep look at the drone on the table, turned around and went out. He still has it today. Other important tasks should not be delayed here for too long.
What Zhan and Tan did not expect was that the meeting this time caused an uproar in the United States. While tossing several major arms groups, Tan Zhenhua's name also spread secretly in a certain circle in the United States. .
Mahmoud is a professional soldier and a technocrat in the Pakistan Railway Equipment Department. His expertise in electronics, machinery and even chemistry is not vague at all, but there are not many people who know it. That is, he is still a man. A fairly qualified amateur painter!
Therefore, after he returned to the hotel from his day of work, the first thing he did was to draw the appearance of the small quadcopter drone with a pencil as he remembered it! When he finished this sketch work, he held it left and right for a long time and even thought that this might be the perfect work of his life!
Three days later, the acceptance of the dual-coordinate radar was successfully completed. The entire radar was disassembled, packed, and sent to the train. It will be transported all the way, first to Kashgar in China, and then to Pakistan Railway via Karakoram Highway. Tacot within the territory, then deploy to the place where it needs to work.
Naturally, Mahmoud did not need to the goods personally. After all, this route is within the borders of Huaxia and Pakistan Railway. It is relatively safe. He will fly directly to Iraq from the capital. In addition to the original purpose of this line, he also brought An important information!
The plane landed smoothly at the Iborg International Airport. Mahmoud adjusted his military uniform that was slightly wrinkled because of the long-distance travel, stepped off the plane and saw Brigadier General Latif, the head of the equipment department, who personally led the team to greet him.
He ignored the greeting. The first sentence was: "Your Brigadier General, I hope to meet with President Huck immediately. I have very important things to report to him."
Two hours later, President Huck met Brigadier General Latif and Colonel Mahmoud who had arrived in the dust at his residence. After the usual salute and handshake, Mahmoud couldn’t wait to take out the picture of his self. The drawn sketch and a few photos bluntly said:
"Your Excellency, this time I saw a novel flight equipment in China’s 4014 Research Institute. I think it will be of great help to improving our combat environment in Afkhan. This is what I remember. The picture I drew, you see, this is the shape of this aircraft. It is about 300 mm long and equipped with 4 electric motors..."
