The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Shangwen sat in the carriage and headed to Li Si's prime minister's house. Shang Wen was originally designing the components of the train, but don't bother with the servants sent by Li Si. Said it was the envoy of Qi State to see you. Shang Wen had to put aside his work and go to negotiate. This time Shangwen still has a bottom line. After all, King Qin had already told Qi the number of orders. These quantities, according to the current production speed, have to be delivered in full, and basically have already run into the second half of next year. Moreover, this speed is still Qin's high-speed production, and most of the country's weapons and equipment will be placed behind. If Qin's military equipment is added, it is estimated that at most half of the weapons and equipment will be delivered in the second half of next year. Compared with these figures, Qin’s production volume is very limited.

Judging from the production of muskets, it can be seen that the number of muskets produced by Qin State this month is only close to 6,000. Excluding Yan Guo's order. It is estimated that Qin can barely equip two regiments if it is left to Qin's equipment. Add artillery. The number of artillery is close to thirty. It can only be organized into five artillery companies. I don't know who is in charge of the army now. I don't know the situation of these equipment at all. I don't know how the army is training. Moreover, Wang Jian's army will be back tomorrow. The return of Wang Jian's army indicates that a gun team and two or three artillery companies will be transferred to the north for defense. Shang Wen knows nothing about these specific situations.

Coming to the Prime Minister's Mansion, Shang Wen came to this place for the second time. The difference is that Shang Wen is a bit funny, why does he have to go to other people's places to work.

The same room, the difference is that this time there is one more person in the room. The envoy of Qi. rear. This rear is the younger brother of Qi Xiang. Guo Kai also followed, and he didn't know how the two got together.

It turned out that Guo Kai didn't know where he heard Qi sent a special envoy to purchase firearms, so Guo Kai hurriedly came to the door. By reselling, they got the opportunity to buy firearms from Qin. This resale means that Qi Guo comes forward to buy firearms, and then Zhao Guo buys his own firearms from Qi Guo. The price difference between the two parties is negotiated in advance. The benefit of this price difference is Qi Guo's income. Although this rear does not understand the diplomatic relations and state affairs, the tangible benefits can still be seen. But this move has planted a major hidden danger, that is, causing a third country. Yan Guo's dissatisfaction.

After Shang Wen entered. The two sides exchanged greetings with each other. Then I took my seat and started the negotiation.

"The envoy of Qi State came to buy Daqin's firearms, but I don't know the envoy of the State of Zhao Zhao. The purpose of coming here is..." Shang Wenming asked knowingly.

"Well, what is this?" Guo Kai said.

"The signing of the trade contract is a matter for both parties and does not involve a third party. Moreover, we are not willing to participate in too many diplomatic affairs now that the two countries are at war. Please leave the envoy of Zhao Guo." Shang Wen immediately issued an eviction order.

"This. This." Guo Kai did not expect that Shang Wen would do such a thing.

Shang Wen looked at Guo Kai without looking up. Waiting for Guo Kai's departure.

"Humph." Guo Kai grunted heavily and left.

After Guo Kai left. Shang Wen opened the topic again.

"Okay. Let's get it right." Shang Wen said with his notebook.

"I don't know how many firearms Qi bought from the Qin State?" Shang Wen asked directly.

"This," the rear obviously is not yet adapted to this fast-paced commercial activity. But Shang Wen was very clear. Weapons are different from other commodities. His special attributes determine the special significance of his commodity value. When it comes to the arms trade. Shangwen has always taken the initiative. Those guns can only be equipped with some elementary troops, but if a country wants to have an absolute advantage in weapons, it only depends on technology. But technology, Shangwen occupies the right monopoly position. and so. The initiative and bargaining chip for negotiation. It's all on my side. Shang Wen didn't care about this idiot in front of him at all.

"Quantity. Type. Price. Delivery date. That's it." Shang Wen waved his hand and said.

"Oh." The rear still didn't adapt.

"In this way, our Qi country needs three hundred and fifty artillery pieces. Fifty thousand guns. Two hundred thousand rounds of ammunition. One hundred thousand rounds of artillery." The rear said.

Shang Wen silently took a pencil to record. When Shangwen heard this number, he was very surprised. But it didn't show up. It's the number that keeps the record of normalcy. This number is really terrible. Qin State according to the current production level. It is estimated that so many muskets can be produced in one or two years.

These figures are bigger than the figures I got from King Qin yesterday. Shang Wen thought about it calmly. In turn, there may be a large number of Zhao Guo orders. It seems that the firearms purchased by Zhao Guo are also very large. It is estimated that they have realized the importance of firearms. Not bad. This is an opportunity to make a fortune.

There are currently two types of artillery, one of which is a two-inch caliber. This type of artillery is compared to the five-inch artillery developed later. Both the power and the range are incomparable. Shangwen originally planned to export five-inch artillery, but considering the price issue and the Qin army's weaponry advantage, Shangwen decided not to export this type of artillery. The export is still a small-caliber two-inch artillery. This type of artillery technology is still relatively mature, and the production is relatively fast. And the key is to save on materials.

"En. Very good. At present, the price of a gun in Daqin is five hundred gold, and the price of a gun is one gold. These are not discountable, but we can discount the bullets. We should charge you one for 15 rounds. It’s gold. But Qi’s purchases are very large, and we give back to Qi with a discount. We will charge you 10,000 gold for 200,000 rounds of bullets, and the artillery shells are more expensive. After all, this thing is very large, and we also discount it. You 30,000 gold, it's already very cheap." Shang Wen waved his hand and motioned. The back listened for a moment.

"Calculated in this way, the total price is 137,500 gold. You know that these weapons require a lot of money for us to start work. Therefore, we need Qi Guo to make a one-time payment. Otherwise, we will refuse to accept the order." Shang Wen said strongly.

"This. This." There was a cold sweat in the back. But Shang Wen looked at the fool in front of him coldly.

After a period of calm. The rear finally made up his mind. Nodded and agreed. Then he wiped the sweat from his forehead in relief.

"Well, very good, I will draft a contract now." Shang Wen quickly wrote the contract. Both parties signed and custody. Then Shang Wen left and went to King Qin to ask for instructions and lead soldiers. Then go to the rear to **** all the funds. After all, this is not a small sum.
