Blackstone Code Chapter 851: I am proud


There is no falsehood in what Lynch said, but sometimes he uses some tricks in his speech to make some words more acceptable.

The gentlemen in the room talked and discussed in a low voice, and what Lynch said was indeed very tempting to them.

Especially the "decapitation tactics", the strategic idea of ​​directly attacking the opponent's headquarters as the core of the attack is very valuable. Once the headquarters is attacked, the front line will easily be messed up.

That's war!

Every war is a war of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people. Once the "head" is lost, a little trouble will turn into a fatal one.

By the end of the talk, the Department of Defense Commissioner for Military Equipment Acquisition asked a question that everyone was concerned about, "Mr. Lynch, if we were going to buy a batch to try and do some tactical mix-ups, how much would it sell for. "

"One hundred and fifty thousand!" Lynch didn't even think about it.

He carefully observed the changes in the expressions of these people, there was nothing unusual, and they didn't even think it was expensive!

Of course, in this world where giant ships and heavy artillery dominate the war, the price of a battleship is enough to buy someone in the Ministry of Defense, about 10,000 aircraft.

Only this year Congress approved plans for two battleships to be commissioned within five years.

The federation with only one full fleet is still too weak. Now that the federation's navy has proven its strength, there is no need to think about the stupid idea of ​​"increasing the military budget will make people misunderstood".

That's when everyone thinks they can't beat anyone and they worry about others thinking so, now it's others who should be worried.

The cost of the two battleships alone is about 370 million Federal Sol, plus the others, the overall cost of the Eastern Ocean Second Formation, which has already fallen, has exceeded one billion.

The Ministry of Defense and the military have recently dealt with hundreds of millions or tens of millions of military expenditures, and the worst is a few millions. Now they suddenly heard that 150,000 planes are used, and their only thought is how this thing is so cheap ?

There's even an absurd delusion that it's so cheap, isn't this stuff so unreliable that it's so cheap?

There was no dissatisfaction with this price on the faces of these people, but an uncommon questioning appeared, and Lynch realized that he could continue to increase the price.

He learned this from an auctioneer before.

The auctioneer has hosted many large and small auctions. The reason why he and Lynch became good friends was because they secretly exchanged consignment goods on the spot.

But that doesn't change the fact that this auctioneer is a great auctioneer!

He told Lynch that when people are dissatisfied with the price, there is a clear reaction, maybe because the price is too high, maybe because they have no money in their pockets, maybe because they feel that they have seen the secret of the price hike.

No matter what reason they are dissatisfied with the price, this dissatisfaction is very obvious, a kind of negation, which can be seen by their eyes.

But if someone is showing a puzzled look at an auction, that's only two things.

In the first case, the price was lower than he expected, and he felt cheap in his heart.

In the second case, he is wondering if the product is fake or if there is something tricky that is not written in the picture book, so the price is so low.

There is a stark contrast between dissatisfaction and doubt, and some people have some doubts now.

In Lynch's description, the birth of an airplane is precisely the birth of an effective airplane, a force that changes the pattern of the world, but this key to changing the pattern of the world, isn't it a bit cheap?

"Gentlemen, I'm talking about the price of the plane itself. If you need more, the price is not completely constant"

Even Mr. President thinks this should be the case. After all, some luxury cars now cost tens of thousands of dollars. In his opinion, this kind of war weapon that can be raised to a strategic level should not be affordable by anyone.

Of course, this who refers to those around Mr. President that he knows well

Twenty minutes later, Lynch watched these people leave, and he sighed with satisfaction.

The chief engineer walked over cautiously, "Mr. Lynch, although this is very rude, I still want to know, have we succeeded?"

Lynch didn't look at him, and continued to look at the sky in the distance, feeling that his mind became wider, "Of course!"

"How much did you sell?"

"Twenty?"

Lynch gave him a sideways glance at this time, "You've underestimated a zero."

There are 200 planes, and the price of each plane has risen to 168,000 yuan. This is a discounted price. Lynch took the initiative to give a discount to this purchase on the grounds of his "patriotic sentiment".

Two hundred, the total price is as high as 33.6 million. After deducting the cost of less than 10 million and the tax of 7 to 8 million, his profit exceeds 100%.

But that's not how things work. After the Department of Defense has this plan, they won't pay for the money themselves. They will definitely submit the request to the Congressional Military Appropriations Committee for declaration.

Only after the Military Appropriations Committee agrees, the money will be credited to Lynch's designated account in batches.

If you want the members of the Military Council to stand on your side, you have to show their sincerity.

The military will not use its own abilities. This is the rule. If Lynch wants to facilitate this, he must do it himself.

It's probably another two or three million or three or four million dollars, and that money goes directly to the various foundations, and then it's the cost of hiring lobby groups.

At the end of the day, he was able to pocket around 10 million, if not less.

The chief engineer next to him blushed and farted. His performance almost deceived Lynch, making Lynch think he made a lot of money.

But that's not much money.

The chief engineer's breath was quick, "Mr. Lynch, I heard that the price of this plane is not cheap?"

He didn't dare to say "high" or "expensive", but used "not cheap", a very detailed test.

Lynch nodded indifferently. This matter can't be hidden. Once it is sent to the Military Appropriation Committee, everyone who should know will soon know it. There is no need to hide it.

"The total price is about 33 million, what's wrong?"

"Nothing!", the chief engineer's excited hands shook uncontrollably, five percent, five percent!

1.65 million, one-time!

Everyone can be divided into at least 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, and more than 100,000 yuan!

If this was in the previous factory, I was afraid that I would not be able to get the money if I worked to death.

What's more important is that this perfect arms sale intention allows the chief engineer to see a bright future. If there is anyone who is desperately hoping for a war now, it must be him.

Every time one falls, it's money!

As for patriotism?

Sorry, he feels ashamed in the face of profit.

Although I am ashamed, I have no intention of changing.

Soon the researchers in the entire institute became excited. The money came just right. After all, the long and boring research work needs a little adjustment. Money is this thing!

Lynch also left the institute later, but instead of going home or looking for someone to buy some assembly lines for processing spare parts, he found Mr. Truman instead.

With the help of Mr. Trueman, I met the old man who was still serving his sentence, the "former" Vice Admiral of the Commonwealth, the future Admiral.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. Lynch, you are younger and a little more handsome than you look on TV.", Vice Admiral is a very gentle old man.

It may be that he has completed what he thinks is the most important choice in his life. The spirit of the whole person has reached another level. It seems that his inner part is younger than his appearance, although his appearance looks like Already very young.

"Thank you for your compliment, Your Excellency!", the two shook hands and entered the house.

Although the Lieutenant General is still serving his sentence, that doesn't mean others can't visit him.

On the way to the study, Lynch looked at the house and said, "I rarely use honorifics to address other people, because I am proud in my bones, and I don't think anyone will be higher than me" /

The lieutenant general walking in front smiled as if thinking of something, "But you used honorifics just now!"

He pushed open the door of the study ~IndoMTL.com~ and invited Lynch in, then closed the door of the study.

His Excellency Lieutenant General has a wine rack in his study, which may be the difference between a soldier and a politician.

"Would you like some?", he asked, and then Lynch nodded. He didn't ask Lynch what wine he wanted, but walked over with two glasses and a bottle of spirits.

Looking at the lieutenant general pouring some wine for himself, after saying "thank you", Lynch talked about the reason why he used honorifics.

"Because you are a person worthy of my respect, the Federation needs people like you, Your Excellency."

"When people let morality cross the bottom line and fall into the abyss step by step for the sake of profit, when many people think that there is nothing that can't be solved through negotiation, we need someone to stick to the last thing for us."

"You made the right choice at the right time and bought us ten years!"

"The more our enemies hate you, the more you deserve our respect!"

"You deserve it!"

The lieutenant general couldn't help laughing after hearing this, not at all contrived, "Truman told me that you are a very talkative person, let me be careful to be deceived by your honey-like words. ."

"I know what you're saying may serve some purpose, but I'm still happy."

"As people get older, they always like to hear young people complimenting themselves!"

He was not modest at all, but Lynch said with a smile, "Even when Mr. President was talking to me, I didn't use honorifics, including the emperor of Gavra, and I didn't use honorifics either. language.”

The lieutenant general was stunned for a while, because this can't be deceived. Does he really respect himself?

He's caught in a guess!
