Chapter 445: 9. Holiday (6)


"Xiaguan heard that there was such an exaggerated warship, and thought that the security guy was joking with me.
Delaz subconsciously fumbled for his shirt pocket. After grabbing it empty, he remembered that it was a no-smoking area. Cigarettes had been handed over to the security check at the door with the weapon. Scratching the back of the head, a wry smile appeared on his face.
"Fouling armor, abnormal machine power, mortal...destructive armament, phantom technique and multiple anti-detection methods. Living facilities include heating and cooling supercharged air conditioning, elevators, large cold storage, large washing machines, Hotels, bathrooms, libraries, barber shops, post offices, the per capita living area is 4.2 square meters-this kind of hotel-level living facilities. Let’s not talk about the construction of this warship to test the resources, technology and production capacity, how to ensure the funding channel It’s enough for people to have a headache. It’s not a question of this kind of gold-eating monster destroying one or two cities.

The cost of the Yamato-class battleship is 13,780,2,000 yen, which is equivalent to 12.134 tons of pure gold, which is calculated as 3% of the national budget of the foot pot chicken at that time, which is equivalent to 21 billion US dollars in 2007.
No matter how computational and economical it is, it can be estimated how much resources this monster with the protection capacity of the Yamato class battleship, the full tonnage and huge volume of the Ford class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier will devour the firepower of two half-cloth Awa class battleships And money.
This has only been completed, and future maintenance and repairs will be counted as well... My dear friend in the accounting department will have to go to the hospital for first aid again.
Wealth is like Yalfheim, and building and maintaining a strong standing army with the Great Emperor at its core is probably not easy.
The uncontrolled expansion of the army would destroy a country. The astute and terrible consul should have foreseen this, but the fact is that the defense army not only started the construction of the Great Emperor, but also the subsequent start of the second ship. On the agenda, other arms construction shows no signs of slowing down or freezing.
How did such a big expenditure come from? It is not always possible for the consul to save the marshal scepter, the private money for his marriage, the small vault to buy a house for the young master, and all his own coffins in the future. Use the almost abnormal diet to support the construction of armaments. ?
Observation of the Great Emperor began with laying the keel, and gradually took shape. So far, it is coming to an end, but the question about the source of funds has always been lingering.
Delaz wouldn’t be so stupid as to ask the finance directly, where he had been given a password. Not only would he not be able to ask for anything, but after asking the question, Stacy’s gray car should also come to the door and ask him to drink tea.
The doubtful core manufacturing and planner nodded gently, discerning the disturbed and distracted smile:
"For this. We must thank humanity. Without their full sponsorship, we don't know where to start the arms expansion plan."
With no respect and no malicious intention to unravel the puzzle, Diraz couldn't react.
Monopoly means unlimited profit, but can rely on monopoly operations and dumping commodities. Is the profit so large? Human beings are local tyrants, do you spend money day after day, day and night?
"My Admiral, don't you understand? There is nothing more profitable than a monopoly on the arms market except the financial market."
In Li Lin’s quotation to Richelieu, the cost conscience price of an artillery was 2,500 guineas or Ecu, and there was no deviation, but the corresponding artillery type was
slightly deviation
.
2500 gold coins-that is the cost price of an 88㎜ anti-aircraft gun. The cost of the simpler process front-mounted smooth-bore copper gun is 200 gold coins, not even one tenth of the 88 gun. If the production line is adjusted to mass production, it can even be reduced to 100...
At the price of 88 cannons, I bought a clay cannon to go home, and I was happy like I picked up a baby...
"We must not forget the enthusiastic Castilians. As soon as the 7th War was over, General Franco quickly contacted me. I hope to sell a batch of artillery, and transform the old warships, through the war between Heping and Charlemagne. Of military strength,"
Francisco Franco-Castillo's right-wing military organization "Landscape Party" "Cordillo (, leader's intention)". After being hit hard by the incompetent and inefficient old military aristocracy in the "Seven-Day War", this extreme right-wing conservative soldier wearing a reform coat and shouting "change" like a black President Midi began to embark on the card Center of the political arena in Stiles.
This is a malpractice to reform the country. At the risk of being scolded as a "national thief", "Castile traitor", or "shameless villain", the general who is willing to "save the country" is quite a sign of "leading the knife into a fast, not losing the young head" Mr. Legacy. After hooking up with Li Lin, he quickly provided a lot of defense secrets. From the fortification drawings at the border, the mobilization of garrison troops, and even the emergency procedures in case of emergency, the Stardust operation can finally succeed, and the cooperation with Franco is inseparable.
Of course, Franco has also benefited a lot from this cooperation. When the Defense Forces and Titans used guns to send a large number of Castilian generals to hell, Franco's competitors were also much less. After the defeat of the Seventh Day War, in order to make up for the vacancy caused by the death of a large number of officers, General Franco was quickly promoted from the unknown commander of the Defense Force to the Earl of the Border. Lead his subordinates to the northeast border. This general command reserve force quickly filled the border gap, performed well in several small-scale border conflicts, coupled with his clean and self-discipline style, quickly became the idol of the army's middle and lower rank officers and soldiers.
But for Franco, who is coveted by a higher power position, the support of middle and lower rank officers and soldiers is far from enough. In order to get the favor of Philip II, he entered the central government as early as possible and climbed to the throne of prime minister. More achievements are needed as a foundation.
The on-the-spot confrontation on the border allowed no accidents, and there was nothing for him to blend in for a while, so Franco turned his attention to the ongoing military restructuring and reform, and contacted his old friend Li Lin again.
As long as you can get a cannon, or supervise a powerful battleship, based on actual performance, its status as the leading military reform can not be shaken, and the above will also confirm his ability~EbookFREE.me~ Central decision-making layer. There is no need to risk fighting with Charlemagne and take risks, there is nothing more cost-effective trading.
As for whether Li Lin will sell cannons, transform warships, or even sell gun-building technology—Franco believes that as long as the prices are reasonable, nothing can't be discussed.
He is really a very shrewd person, and he is more suitable to be a politician or businessman than an officer.
Looking up at the outline of the giant ship, the consul’s smile deepened, as if something ridiculous had been associated.
"I have agreed to Franco, and I chose a newly built ship for improvement. What is the name of the ship... Oh, yes. It's called "Vikramati"-a very good name."
For arms dealers who sharpen their knives quickly, "Vikramati" is really a good name. (To be continued.
