The Undead Empire That Travels Through the Multiverse

Chapter 84 Place an order with the United States

Chen Mo went to the United States at this time not because he wanted to form an alliance with the United States.

Although the United States in the future will rise strongly due to the east wind of World War II and become the bipolar world and a superpower in the future, this is not the reason why Chen Mo cares about them.

Although the United States has shown a strong rise during this period, both in terms of industrial strength and economic strength, it has gradually developed, but the world's most powerful country is still the United Kingdom, and Chen Mo does not feel that he needs to flatter the Americans.

Although the United States will become the world's most powerful country in the future, this country treats its allies very poorly. The allies it has cheated to death can be said to be extremely powerful. Every ally has been cheated by the United States.

If it were not for the Cold War, European countries would need to rely on the United States to fight against the threat of the Soviet Union. Who would be willing to praise the United States, a colonial country?

In fact, not only the United States, but also the Soviet Union during the Cold War.

During the Suizong and Xunzong eras, although the Soviet Union provided aid to many third world countries, it all involved various political interests and ideological struggles between the two camps.

Otherwise, why would there be such a thing as the Prague Spring?

This is also the reason why in original history, Egyptian leader Nasser would become the leader of the Non-Aligned Movement.

There are too many countries that do not want to be involved in the confrontation between the two camps and hope that they can remain neutral.

If Nasser and Egypt were not too ambitious at the time, as well as the various problems in the Middle East, Nasser would have had the opportunity to integrate the entire Middle East into a whole and establish a pan-Arab country.

At that time, Egypt enjoyed a high reputation under the leadership of Nasser, who himself was regarded as a leading figure in the Arab world.

With his efforts, Syria and Yemen signed a treaty with Egypt in 1958. The three countries merged into one country, aiming to achieve decolonization of Arab countries, exclude the influence of the United States, Britain and France in the Middle East and North Africa, and liberate Palestine.

It is a pity that this beautiful idea ultimately failed due to the political ambitions of the Egyptians and the interference of the United States.

The United Arab Republic jointly established by the three countries lasted for less than three years and was disbanded in 1961.

Therefore, in Chen Mo's view, these so-called allies are unreliable, and everything is just interests.

What is truly reliable is one's own strength.

Chen Mo's visit to the United States at this time was, on the one hand, to avoid the messy intrigues in the country, and on the other hand, to obtain benefits from the United States and further develop his country's strength.

Although Egypt has had good relations with the United Kingdom since its founding, the establishment of Egypt's industrial system relied more on cooperation with the United States.

And the more critical point is that at this time, the United States still pursued isolationism, and the country was more influenced by capital. It valued money and practical interests more than the treacherous political games like Europe.

Therefore, Chen Mo is still more willing to cooperate with the Americans when it comes to enhancing his country's strength.

It has only been a few years since the outbreak of World War II. At this time, if you want to quickly improve your country's strength, especially its military strength, you need a large number of military products.

Although Egypt's domestic factories have begun to take shape after years of construction and are indeed operating at full capacity, they are still a drop in the bucket compared to the demand expected by Chen Mo.

Therefore, he urgently needs an existence with strong industrial strength to help him produce enough military supplies to reduce the pressure on Egypt, so that he can expand his military strength as much as possible before the outbreak of World War II.

Although Britain is still the world's most powerful country at this time, the United States has caught up from behind in terms of industrial strength.

Moreover, with its vast land area, the United States has more factories and stronger production capacity. There is no need to talk about politics, only pure money relations, which can satisfy Chen Mo's needs at the moment.

So after arriving in the United States, he contacted many large factory owners in the United States through Pierre Dupont of the DuPont family, whom he met at the beginning, and sent them massive orders and money, and ordered a large amount of military supplies from them.

The United States was a country that started by selling arms during World War I. Chen Mo dared to buy and they dared to sell. As long as the price was right, the Americans didn't mind selling Chen Mo whatever they could.

Chen Mo mainly ordered a wide variety of tanks and aircraft parts from the United States, as well as a large number of industrial primary processing products. After these items are shipped back to Egypt, they will be manufactured into new tanks and aircraft, as well as various ammunition.

As for other military supplies, Chen Mo also purchased a batch. As for the quantity...if there was no World War II, Egypt could use it until 1970 with the 400,000 troops in Egypt.

In addition, Chen Mo also gave the DuPont family a design drawing of an automatic rifle, which was the famous m14 automatic rifle in later generations.

Chen Mo placed a total order of 400,000 m14s with the DuPont family. Such a large order really shocked the Dupont family, but they still accepted the order without any hesitation, even though they needed to join forces with other military companies in order to obtain the order in Chen Mo. Mo demanded that all be delivered before 1939, but obviously the DuPont family would not let go of such a big piece of fat.

At this time, there are still factories that can take orders as big as Chen Mo's, but the British military factory Chen Mo tried it out last time. They were not willing to produce automatic rifles, and the quotation given by the British was too high. , Chen Mo couldn't accept it.

This is not a problem in the United States. With such a large order, the American military industry companies have to turn themselves into the shape of Chen Mo. What he says is what it is.

Military industrial companies headed by the DuPont family not only lowered their prices to win over Chen Mo, a major customer, but also took the initiative to spend their own money to improve factories and production lines to produce M14 automatic rifles and supporting bullets and other accessories.

As for the huge purchase order in Chen Mo's hands, the DuPont family did not intend to let it go. Although they could not afford it themselves, they contacted a large number of factories and companies related to the DuPont family, and everyone worked together to meet Chen Mo's needs. , and offers an extremely affordable price.

This really makes Chen Mo very satisfied. This is what makes people feel comfortable doing business with capitalists. As long as the money is in place, he can have whatever he wants.

As for the money used for payment, that's not embarrassing. Chen Mo used counterfeit banknotes that were printed by the US dollar banknote printing factory in the "biochemical" world according to the US dollar banknotes of this era.

Perhaps due to some subtle coincidence, the United States in the two worlds used the same currency at the same time, so the "biochemical" world only needs to turn over the old banknote boards and resume the operation of the banknote printing plant. Chen Mo was constantly provided with "fake banknotes" that could no longer be genuine.
