The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

Qin State, Ministry of the Army.

"How are they doing?" The Secretary of the Army asked the Deputy Chief of the Army. He is now concerned about expeditions, which is related to the strategic layout of the Qin State Army.

"They are doing pretty well. They have already started surveying. The second wave brought some technicians, but they were still unable to get in touch with Dawan. They are gathering quickly, and there is a wave of expeditions continuing to survey west. If we do, we need to further expand our expenses." The Army Deputy Chief looked at the Secretary of the Army and said. Although he didn't know how to solve this problem, he knew that the War Department really didn't have much funds to solve this problem. Expeditions cost, especially, they would need to spend more money to buy those lands from those tribes. Although the land is cheaper, the problem is that the land currently occupied by the Army cannot be sold to those merchants.

Although a large number of parliamentarians participated in the northern railway, after a certain distance surveyed by a professional railway company, they believed that the cost of building such a railway would be very staggering. It may invest more than 100 million gold coins to build such a railway. A railway. But when this report came out, it frightened all investors, and the northern parliamentarians didn't know how to explain this problem. They should continue to invest. Still divestment. One hundred million gold coins. This investment scale has exceeded their understanding. Moreover, the climate in the north and the absence of people have reduced the interest of railway companies and banks in investing in the following railway companies and banks. It can be said that in the end, The War Department has to bear such a large amount of expenses. This made the Army feel very worried. They worried that this would lead to a serious decline in the equipment of the Qin Army.

"Sir, it is very difficult for us to develop the land, and the scale of investment is very large. If this continues, it seems to be very unfavorable to us." The Army Secretary said worriedly.

"How much technology is available for sale in our army's preparations?" The Secretary of the Army knows that this requires funding, especially since a wave of expeditions continue to develop westward. Although this can greatly meet their needs for land expansion, the problem is, this Funds are needed. The only way for the War Department is to sell some technical equipment. For example, transfer some artillery technology to the South Korean Navy so that they have the technology for manufacturing large-caliber artillery. With this technology, they can solve some problems. But in doing so, it is not known how much technology the War Department can transfer out.

"I know this. The problem is that there are still continuing expeditions happening. We may not have more funds to attract more capital investment, and at the same time, there is no more funds to arrange more funds for the tribes. In this case, The War Department has no money to do more things.” The Secretary of the War said worriedly.

"Yes, sir, unless we also sell the aviation technology out, but if we do that, the Qin State Army will have no killer." said the Army Deputy Commander. The Secretary of the Army nodded. He understands this sentiment. If the Qin Army had no assassin equipment to deal with possible future situations, it would be very bad. At present, the only department in the army that has not yet transferred technology on a large scale is the aviation unit. It is the killer of the Qin Army. It is mainly equipped with some bombing airships. Qin has further upgraded the bombing airships. First, they use a large number of internal combustion engines. But the difference is that these internal combustion engines will drive the electric motor, and the electric motor will drive the propeller to provide power. In this way, the efficiency of the engine will be higher. Airships can be made larger, with a length of more than two hundred meters and a width of an astonishing 33 meters. Such a behemoth is undoubtedly disastrous for urban bombing. This is the only military equipment that the Army can produce. , Even Qin's heavenly army could not have such equipment. However, the Celestial Army has its own plan. They plan to convert this type of engine to the aircraft. In this case, the speed of the aircraft may be faster, but in order to achieve the same bombing effect, they must make the aircraft bigger. . It is said that the number of engines exceeds a staggering eight, and the size of the aircraft may exceed that of the airship. The Celestial Army is very confident in such a project. But now they are considering whether to sell such technology out.

"It is impossible for us to get more financial support. The Ministry of Finance has restricted our funds. We can only solve it by ourselves. But in this way, we will have to sell out a large amount of technology, which will have a great impact on national security. Threat, I think the Ministry of National Defense and the General Staff will not agree to such a thing.” said the Army Undersecretary.

"I understand, but what do we do next? Is it possible for us to default on the funds of those people? Is this possible? I think such a thing is the worst for us." The Secretary of the Army said.

"Okay. I think about such a thing again, maybe we will have a solution." The Secretary of the Army thought about it and said.

"Yes. Sir." The army deputy nodded. He hoped that the Secretary of the Army would not do this, because this is the only assassin in the hands of the army. It is said that Zhao Guo can make his own heavy artillery, the caliber is said to exceed Qin Guo's letter. A large fort cannon installed in Guguan. Moreover, the artillery of the Zhao State Army may be more flexible. They are equipped on the train. In this way, they have a certain degree of mobility. The Qingcheng Iron and Steel Plant in South Korea can also manufacture related artillery barrels, but their caliber is about 150 millimeters, but the power of the artillery is still very large, but the Qin army does not have the relevant equipment, and their artillery is basically The largest equipment is the 50mm infantry artillery. This type of artillery is very difficult to deal with fortresses. This made the Qin Army very worried about the opponent they would deal with in the future. In this regard, the Ministry of War is intentional and powerless. Because Shangwen refused to approve more weapons development plans, in that case, his relatives would be dragged into the arms race, which would have a very negative impact on Qin's economy. Although some security consultants were very worried about Qin's security situation, Shangwen still refused to do so.

Aiji, outside of Suez city, the pier here looks very busy, but all the Aiji people are very nervous. They have stopped the transportation of related materials before, which has caused their prices to rise a lot, especially the prices of silk, cotton, and more other commodities. The Korean navy cut off their transportation of materials through the Suez Canal. The smuggling merchants took severe retaliatory measures. They attacked the port where the South Korean Navy was anchored. They caused great losses to the South Korean Navy. However, they still did not restore their transportation lines. The reason was that the South Korean Navy The size of the Red Sea Fleet has been strengthened, from old-fashioned warships to new-style warships, and the Korean Navy also uses more advanced mines. But that thing didn't play a big role, because Aijiren used flat-bottomed boats, and it was unlikely that they would trigger the kind of mines that specifically deal with warships with a deep waterline. This was a mistake of the South Korean Navy. They decided to use new mines to deal with them. However, the new warships of the South Korean Navy are still very capable of blocking such transportation lines. Therefore, it is still difficult to recover the transportation lines of Aijiren.

Because their ships are flat-bottomed ships, they are incapable of dealing with fast battleships and machine guns. The Koreans treat them like toys, and they can kill their flat-bottomed ships as they wish. This makes them very annoyed. But there is no alternative.

"Is that the city of Suez?" The captain of the Tianshui put down the telescope in his hand and said.

"Yes, sir, shall we shoot at them? sir. Our gunners are all ready." the chief officer asked from the side. Their 11-inch caliber artillery has been aimed there. It is powerful and has a long range, which allows them to appreciate their masterpieces easily.

"Yes, fire and shoot. This beautiful city is about to be destroyed by us. But I really want to be able to take a photo to commemorate it, but the distance is too far." The captain shook his head and said. Then he ordered his men to start shooting.

"Boom. Boom." One eleven-inch cannon fired one after another. They could not shoot at the same time, because the eleven-inch caliber artillery was still very powerful, and their ships did not take this into consideration when designing and building them. One point, once the four eleven-inch guns on the battleship fully fired, they might have their battleship tilted into the sea at once. In order to avoid such problems, they can only fire one shot after another. This can easily cause their firepower to be greatly dispersed. But still they did not participate in a larger-scale naval battle, they just deal with the cities that love them.

"Boom. Boom." A huge explosion sounded from the city of Suez in the distance, and the rumble of artillery completely broke the peaceful life of Suez City. The Aiji people didn’t know what was happening. They suddenly encountered severe shelling and many civilians were seriously injured. However, the Korean Navy didn’t care about these at all. They constantly adjusted the state and carried out the bombardment from the morning to the afternoon. The South Korean Navy does not know how many people were killed, but they believe that this will pose a big threat to the other side. What they need is such an effect.

On the other side, a group of new warships escorted merchant ships to arrive here. They are special. They are loaded with some aircraft, and they also transport a lot of fuel. They need to be moored in a special port. Aijigang is becoming a new military port.

The naval aviation forces of South Korea and Zhao officially decided to invest in this war. Although it is more experimental in nature, it is this kind of experimental bombing that will bring great influence. The nature of war will change greatly.

Near the Port of Seth, large tracts of drilling towers have been erected here. These are their rigs to expand their production scale. The oil reserves here are very large. The mining difficulty is also relatively small. It is easy to meet the needs of South Korea, and mining an oil well here is as easy as a water well. A large amount of oil began to be stored, and the transportation situation made them extremely dissatisfied.

"If we use oil barrels, we will need too many oil barrels. I heard that domestic processing is very fast, and most of these oil coppers are not very standard." A manager reported to Zhang You To.

"I know. What I want to know is how we can increase the volume of transportation. At the same time, we have been able to compete with the oil producers on Zhangyi Island. They are closer to the country. Although they are slightly more difficult to extract, they have a bigger deal. For them, this technical advantage is not a disadvantage. On the contrary, their proximity will have a great impact on our oil production." Zhang You said angrily. Relying on the funds of Qin people, he bought a lot of land here, and there are a lot of oil resources under these lands. For this reason, he expanded wildly and tried every means to expand in coastal areas. He always believed that oil should be There are abundant oil resources in the affluent coastal areas. He keeps buying land, buying it in various ways. He hired a bunch of desperadoes from South Korea and made them disguised as pirates to constantly attack other people's oil fields. In this way, their oil production would rapidly decrease, and they would not pose a threat to him. At the same time, he will deliberately ignite some oil fields, and the billowing smoke will burn a lot of oil, which looks very distressing, but he is very happy that he can eat the other's oil fields at a very low price.

But Zhangyou still faces a more difficult choice, that is, the problem of oil transportation, the production of oil is not a problem, the extraction technology here is not very difficult, but the problem is, the transportation of oil, they need to extract. The crude oil is loaded into oil drums, and then the oil drums are loaded into ships, before being transported to Qingcheng Port, and then unloaded from Qingcheng Port for transportation by rail. This is very troublesome and inefficient. The output of oil is very large, and it can produce more than 100,000 barrels of oil a day, and the scale will become larger and larger. One million barrels may not be a problem. Zhang You believes this, but the problem is that oil must be transported out before it can be exchanged for money. Otherwise he is worthless.

"We have placed an order at Qingcheng Shipyard. They will help us design and produce a brand-new oil transport vessel with a fully enclosed oil transportation line. Our oil is as simple as water injection, and a large amount of oil is injected into this oil. Ships. After the transportation reaches the destination, we pump out all the oil pumps, or put them directly into the container, and we can inject them into the oil tanks of the transportation railway. For this, we also deal with those railway companies and let them do a good job. Such preparation. His manager said so.

"Well, very good. It is very well done. We need to produce a lot of such ships. Have we obtained a patent for this design?" Zhang You asked worriedly. Because he can use it, and the other party can also use it. In this case, it will definitely affect his own sales.

"Manager, don't worry, we have such a patent. If Zhang Yidao continues to do this, they will suffer a great loss. We will take them to court. If this is the case, they will suffer a great loss." The manager said with a smile.

"Yes, we also need to cooperate with the railway company so that they can only cooperate with us." Zhang You said with a smile. Petroleum is a very promising industry. More and more capitals have noticed here. Some oil producers or people in other industries will participate because the technical threshold for oil extraction is very low, and the investment is not very high. Small, but there will be no great investment. The most important thing is that he is easy to make money. This industry is regarded as the most profitable industry in the future, because more and more internal combustion engines are being used. The demand for oil is getting bigger and bigger.

More and more people participate, and this market has become extremely chaotic. The standard for oil transportation containers has not been determined. In addition, in order to sell oil as soon as possible, they frantically grab transportation resources and add to the oil. Water, more bad conditions will continue to appear, and this industry has begun to appear a lot of chaos. But the more chaotic the place, the more opportunities there are.

Under such circumstances, Zhang You chose to take new measures to solve this problem. He hopes to solve this problem through the situation of the transportation sector. In this way, it will have a revolutionary impact on the transportation of oil.

In Qin State and Xianyang, people are busy selling or short-selling railway stocks in the stock market. The War Department’s plan has received support from many people. However, with the expansion of the region and the response to the real situation in the north, more and more investors are worried that the railway company will invest more funds. In this case, the railway company The financial situation of the country has a very bad impact. This makes investors very worried. Under such worries, the stocks of railway companies have fallen sharply, and many stocks of railway companies have directly dived, which makes everyone feel unprecedented despair.

And Li Wen has quietly returned to Xianyang. He has been shorting cotton. The market for cotton is very good. He has made a lot of money. No one knows how much this guy has made because he never said that it is difficult to investigate even if it is an investigation. Li Wen is very proud of this, he thinks he has done something absolutely beautiful.

"Is this the same with railway stocks?" Li Wen asked his assistant after reading the report.

"Yes, sir. Now everyone feels very pessimistic about railway stocks because it is unlikely that they will continue to rise. We all look at this issue this way." Li Wen's assistant said.

"Yeah. That's right. I think so too, but I want to give it a try." Li Wen felt that there must be some abnormalities behind the railway stocks, and he didn't know what was wrong.
