Chapter 1539: Outgoing girls


When the sun shines through the window, Lord Lorraine finally became impatient, threw down the pen, moved his sore wrist, looked at the one-foot-thick document in front of him, and felt frustrated.
You know, Sir Alex Ferguson has worked hard for two hours, and there are so many files left.
He couldn't help but sighed and said to himself: "This is different from what I thought. I am the deputy commander-in-chief of the coalition army and the marshal. Why do I have to be like a clerk?"
Immediately, there was another long sigh.
As the big three of the coalition forces, all have to deal with these official duties.
But the chief of staff, General Wabador, is the uncle. Drinking and eating meat is always the first one to run, but as long as the document is mentioned, this old grandfather is immediately attacked by gout, lying on the bed and howling.
And Grand Duke Julian, the commander-in-chief, is not a thing. The surnamed often skipped work to attend banquets, but at this time I didn’t know where to go to socialize.
Therefore, the heavy work related to the 600,000 Allied Forces and the 100,000 Free Forces naturally fell on Lorraine.
In addition, Sir Alex Ferguson cannot afford to leave the production work of the Flying Eagle Group.
In this case, the heavy paperwork still made Lord Lorraine part-time a signing machine.
Even so, it is still the result of a lot of girlfriends such as Catherine and Adele, as well as sharing a lot of work for Sir Alex with the staff of the coalition army.
Lord Lorraine secretly sighed, and now he finally knows why there were so many faint monarchs in ancient times, and those who were Ming monarchs were already exhausted.
At this moment, Vera walked in with a cup of black tea. Put the tea on the table, and then turned to the back of Lord Lorraine very obediently. His small hands hugged Lord Lorraine's head, and his fingers were gently massaging.
Lord Lorraine groaned comfortably, leaned back, rested his head on Vera's plump and rich chest, then rubbed hard to find the most comfortable position, and sighed with happiness.
The two did not speak, and enjoyed the quiet summer afternoon.
But this kind of warmth did not last long, and was interrupted by a violent knock on the door.
Lorraine couldn't help frowning. It was certain that the one who knocked on the door was definitely not Lord Lorraine's secretary, and it was almost all smashing the door.
The whole world dared to knock on Lord Lord Lorraine's door like this, but the secretary didn't dare to stop it, and both hands counted it out.
First of all, it is definitely not the Grand Duke of Julian, his old man will not throw himself into the trap, and kindly return to work.
And I haven't been drinking flower wine recently, so I don't know my angry girlfriends either.
If it's Leo and Xiao Bai, the two little hooligans don't know what a knock is at all, they kick open the door every time and rush in directly.
So it seems that there is only one person left, his cheap old man-the protector of the flash, President Brad.
Lord Lorraine grumbled, and said: "The night owl comes to the door, everything will come, this is not a good sign."
Vera couldn't help but chuckle, then turned and walked into the lounge.
And Lord Luo stood up right now, tidied his clothes a bit, and then walked towards the door: Since his cheap father-in-law became president, the shelf has become bigger and bigger, and he is very conscious of the president of a big country.
When I was in the Caribbean, if I had nothing to do, I would walk by and walk to Lord Luo's office.
Since arriving in the Imperial City of Akkadrin, Sir Alex seems to have not seen President Brad in private.
Even if something happened, his old man sent a secretary to send a letter, and Lord Lorraine had to write a letter and send it back. Quite the demeanor of the king but not the king.
"Today was the evil wind blowing over, and this old house came here in person." Lord Lorraine opened the door, and President Brad stood outside the door with a smile, without any entourage behind him.
Sir Alex's heart suddenly increased his vigilance: This old man smiled unnaturally! It looks like an insurance salesman.
Lorraine pretended to be surprised and said: "Why are you here? Please come in. If you have something to do, just send someone to call me, and you will come here yourself."
At the same time, he involuntarily touched his wallet, and then hid it.
President Brad pretended not to see his movements, and still smiled and said: "It's okay, it's okay. It's just been a long time since I came, I'll come over and take a look. Haha, hahahaha"
He said, laughing.
At the same time, he also walked into the room.
Lord Lorraine personally served President Brad a cup of hot tea, placed it in front of him, and then opened his mouth, but didn't know what to say.
President Brad seems to be thinking about something, looking down at the teacup.
There was a momentary silence in the room.
After a while, Lord Lorraine finally couldn't bear it, coughing lightly, breaking the embarrassment, and said: "I heard that the conscription is having some trouble?"
President Brad was said to be the central issue, he couldn't help but hesitated for a while, then he sighed for a long time, and said, "I can't recruit people, these Akkadrin people are really ungrateful!"
The more he talked, the more angry he said, "They don't want to think about who bought the land in their hands, just take advantage of it, and don't want to take any obligations."
Lorraine shrugged, and said in his heart: This is unclear.
It is not a good way to be a soldier in this era. It is common for soldiers to be oppressed and exploited by officers.
Especially when serving as soldiers in the Semitic people, the officers would eat nothing, drink the blood of the soldiers, and use the soldiers as slaves. And what he got in exchange was just food that could barely wrap his stomach.
Only those who can't survive will choose this path. That's why there is a saying, "A good man is not a soldier, and a good iron is not a nail".
As the capital, wealth is gathered and transportation is convenient. Therefore, the living standards of the Akkadrin are much higher than the Semitic average.
What's more, according to the latest decree, they all got the fields just now. As long as it's not a brain twitch, who would have enough food and clothing, but go to war and suffer that sin.
You know, this soldier is not the same as before. It is to fight with the undead high priest, the strongest under the stars. Maybe one day you will die, even if you don’t die, you will be disabled with a broken arm or leg. Who will support yourself?
Lorraine thought for a while and asked in a deep voice, "How is the situation now?"
President Brad shook his head and said: "The quality of willing to be a soldier is not enough, and those who are qualified are not willing to be a soldier. In the past few days, I have only found more than 1,000 meeting conditions, not even one regiment.
The number of 3 million people in the surrounding area of ​​Akaderlin is too low.
Lord Lorraine shrugged and secretly said in his heart: This is not to blame you for being so happy, you are busy expanding the army before the drafting method is completed, and you don't even know where to start.
In fact, as long as it is stipulated that civil servants and parliamentarians must have service experience, this problem will be solved. Those parliamentarians will rush to pack their children into the army in order to inherit their positions in the future.
The attraction of civil servants to the intellectuals is fatal.
In addition, there is a big killer-as long as the soldiers can reduce the tax burden at home, see those ordinary people running over to sign up without slapped buttocks.
But Lord Lorraine was not prepared to tell him his thoughts. He helped him for a while, but couldn't help him for a while, so the president's father-in-law slowly hit the wall: people can only mature in failure.
President Brad is also not very human. After a slight loss, he immediately regained his confidence and said: "But this is nothing. I believe we can always find enough young people willing to serve the country.
I am here today for another matter, which is also related to the current military expansion plan. "
At this point, President Brad hesitated a bit.
He looked at Lorraine with a hesitant expression on his face.
Lorraine looked at him curiously, wondering what demon moth his cheap old man was going to make.
President Brad thought for a moment, and said: "I believe that after expanding the conscription range, enough soldiers can be found, but their equipment is a problem..."
Lorraine blinked without speaking, but patiently waited for President Brad to speak first.
"I want to equip them in accordance with the standards of the security forces." President Brad said in a deep voice: "The Semites are a multi-tribal country. Although we have the largest number of flashes, you know that the relationship between the tribes is not good.
We need a strong army to ensure national security and order. Only in this way can we protect the people..."
Lorraine looked at President Brad suspiciously, interrupted him, and said, "You mean, all troops are equipped according to the security forces' standards?"
President Brad nodded immediately.
Lord Lorraine couldn't help taking a breath, and said in surprise: "What a big handwriting."
When President Brad saw that he shocked Lorraine, he couldn't help being smug. The reason why he didn't want to come to Lorraine was because he didn't want to see Lorraine's proud face.
He is now the debtor, and Lorraine is the creditor.
President Brad smiled, and said, "Of course, it's not ready for once. We plan to divide it into ten years and gradually complete the equipment."
Fortunately, President Brad also knows that the equipment training of an army similar to the security army cannot be successful in three or five months. It is often calculated annually.
Otherwise Lord Lorraine would have laughed at him as another super slapstick.
Lorraine frowned and asked cautiously: "Do you know how much equipment a division of the Security Army needs?"
President Brad thought about it carefully, and said: "There are probably thousands of rifles, hundreds of machine guns, and more than a hundred cannons. A few days ago, when the Caribbean Division changed its outfit, I was also involved."
Lorraine nodded and said, "Take the most common flag guard of the security army, for example, there are 15,000 people in the division, including 600 officers, equipped with 6,800 rifles and 3,500 pistols. , 400 Gatling guns and 260 artillery of various calibers. Are you sure you want to equip the Semitic army according to this standard?"
President Brad rolled his eyes and nodded affirmatively. Only strong force can guarantee the peace and unity of the Semi, and he also understands this truth.
Lord Lorraine leaned forward and tentatively said: "Do you know how much it costs to equip these weapons?"
President Brad touched his gray hair and recalled: "I remember when the Caribbean Division changed clothes, Leo once sent me a bill. At that time, I scared me. It seemed to be 400,000."
Because the fiscal and taxation power of the Republican Political Axe is in the hands of the Eagle Bank, which is the chairman of Leo, so a lot of political expenditures, Leiou and the Republican Political Axe's finance minister, after discussing it, directly deducted from the account.
Anyway, the Republican political axe had no money to pay, and these were all accumulated as debts to the loan provided by the Eagle Bank, and Bradsey was later given a bill to repay him.
And President Brad is also in line with the principle of no itchy lice and no worries about debts, and forget it after reading it.
Anyway, his old man only cares about spending money, making money and paying off debts, which can leave the future president a headache. As an excellent politician, he finally knows the benefits of this electoral politics at this time. If he becomes the emperor. , He still has to pay this account. But now, there is no need to worry at all.
Lord Lorraine had a very bad premonition in his heart, and said: "Forget it, I'd better call Leo."
Leo set the key points for the governors who are about to graduate in the governor's study class. He didn't want to come, and the focus of this work was only a small part of the class.
And the remaining part, of course, is to tell whoever treats the teacher well, respects enough, and pays more supplementary fees.
However, the attendant told Leo that someone wanted him to talk about a big deal of tens of millions of dollars. Leo immediately threw down the textbook and rushed into Lorraine's office.
Before entering the door, he shouted: "Boss, where is that prince?"
Then I saw President Brad looking at him with a smile.
Leo smiled and put his hand with the diamond ring behind him, and said: "It's the uncle of the president. If I have nothing to do, I have to go back to teach people. If you skip class, you will be deducted bonus."
He talked about it and walked outside-he was afraid that President Brad was here to ask him for a ring.
Lorraine's words made Leo stop.
"The President is here to buy arms."
Leo rushed to the sofa beside Brad and said with a grin: "Uncle President, what do you need? Rifle machine gun, artillery battleship?
Not satisfied? Well, even if it's a fortress of war, an aircraft carrier, it's not without negotiation. "
While talking, he squeezed his small fist and graciously beat President Brad on the back.
Lorraine smiled slightly and dealt with President Brad. He was a disadvantaged person with a congenital surname. After all, this was his father-in-law.
The mother-in-law of other people's house is difficult to serve. It is the opposite to Fiona's. Fiona's mother looks pleasing to Lorraine and is extremely satisfied, but President Brad does not look pleasing to Lorraine.
Therefore, Leo had to deal with him.
Lorraine said: "The President wants to know how much we spent on equipping the Caribbean Division."
Leo said without hesitation: "Ninety-two thousand seven thousand gold coins."
President Brad was puzzled: "But I remember there was only four hundred thousand on the bill."
Leo sneered and said: "We first gave you a discount, and then according to our signing of the military aid agreement, the coalition paid half of it for you."
Lorraine said: "The President wants to equip all Semitic troops in accordance with the standards of our security forces in the next ten years."
"Wow," Lei Ou was taken aback for a moment, and his eyes were full of gold coins, rubbing his chubby hands, and slapped his tongue: "This is a big deal. My uncle doesn't have yours."
That can represent the full set of equipment for twenty to twenty-five divisions. This single business not only means tens of millions of expenses, as long as the negotiation is completed, the military industry department of the Flying Eagle Group will not be short of orders in the next ten years.
Chairman Leo has long been worried about the overcapacity. After the war, if there were not enough orders, many factories would have to suspend production. All the money was lost.
Leo took out his pen, made a careful calculation on the paper, and wrote as he wrote: "The equipment cost of a division is one million. I will give you a discount. Let's calculate it at 900,000, and provide two and a half a year. The division’s equipment is 2.2 million.
The annual training fee for each division is calculated at 300,000, and the war is calculated separately.
Including the annual inflation of 3.5%, the annual increase of labor costs, equipment renewal costs, fixed asset depreciation costs, cargo transportation costs, personnel training costs, fixed depletion...
The contract period is ten years, with a total cost of about 40 million, an average of 4 million per year. "
President Brad blurted out: "So many!"
President Brad's original expectation was that it would cost less than one million a year. Four million was far beyond his expectation, and his republican axe could not be afforded.
Leo spent a circle of zeros behind the number four, and threw down the pen saying: "I'm still at a friendly price. Uncle President, because of your face, if others want to buy it, I won't sell it to him.
What will you pay for? We also accept barter for goods, or land and other fixed assets to cover the account. "
"That..." President Brad rolled his eyes, smiled like a Maitreya Buddha, and said, "Isn't there military aid?"
Lord Lorraine almost jumped up with anger, and blurted out: "I will help you..."
Fortunately, reason has the upper hand~EbookFREE.me~ Shengsheng held back the word "sister" and changed his words: "It's impossible!"
Lord Lorraine just wanted to point to the door and yelled at the old guy, "Fuck."
Even Leo stopped doing it. He put his hands on his chest, raised his head at a forty-five-degree angle, and hung his throat and said, "No money, why are you saying so much?"
Huang Shiren is a good landlord.
President Brad couldn't keep up his face, but the kid who was laughing at him was too embarrassed to say anything. He rubbed his nose and said: "We are only in temporary financial difficulties, or we will put it on the account first."
Chairman Leo couldn’t laugh or cry. He was usually the only one who knocked others off. At this time, he was beaten up by others. He said,
Uncle President, you are reasonable. You owe me 20 million. The annual interest is 140. One hundred thousand, I really have no money to lend you."
President Brad returned to the presidential palace with a heavy face for the last time, and later asked someone to call his daughter Fiona.
Those who followed the presidential palace saw Fiona head straight to Lorraine's headquarters with a black face, and heard that she kicked open the door of Lorraine's room.
Then I heard her angry questioning from inside: "Isn't my father just asking you to borrow some money? Why not?"
But then, after listening to Lorraine's explanation for a while, there was another exclamation: Ah, is that so?
Immediately afterwards, she heard her say loudly: "The old man borrowed so much money, but he still wants to take advantage of our family. If we don't borrow it, we must not use our own money to subsidize the grandsons of the Republican Political Axe. "
After listening to the description of the guards, President Brad stood in the back garden and sighed: What a girl outgoing! (To be continued.)
