Born In England

Chapter 106: Try 1!

"However, when it comes to the weapons business over there, it's all a matter of trifles. Those chiefs don't expect much orders!" Li Lin touched his chin and thought.

Of course, for his company, this kind of small order is not bad, it can be accumulated slowly, and the company will develop slowly, right?

In fact, the current cost of his weapons company is not very high, mainly because the equipment is ready-made, and the operating cost is only the raw materials and the wages of the workers.

Even Li Lin asked that place to control the production volume and not hire so many workers. After all, the order has not yet been received, so there is no need to hire too many workers and invest in mass production.

After thinking about it, Li Lin still set his sights on the two customers, Deguo and Goeguo!

First of all, it is the end of the 19th century, and the friction between the major forces on the European side has gradually increased.

Especially the various collisions on the colonial side.

Therefore, at present, the countries of Germany and the countries of Goose have relatively great enthusiasm for the procurement of weapons.

Let’s talk about the country first.

In 1888, Maxim brought his own machine gun to the country for a display event. The display was very successful, but he did not get any orders from the country!

But it was a coincidence that during a later visit, a British prince invited Emperor Tai II to watch the shooting performance of the Mark Qin machine gun, and Emperor Tai said that he had never seen it. So he invited the Kaiser to go to Spandau, not far from Berlin, to have a look.

What the British prince did not expect was that in the near future, the Maxim machine gun he solemnly recommended to the Emperor would send countless British youths to hell!

This historical secret was seen by Li Lin inadvertently swiping a funny video about [The Past and Present of Mark Qin's Machine Gun] in his previous life.

At the same time, the short video also introduced that another Goose country also purchased this machine gun.

The video explained that this was mainly because the army of the Goose Kingdom was the largest in Europe at the time, and the Goose Emperor did not hesitate to spend money on the army. In 1895, Zhaha Luofu made the Goose Emperor interested in the Mark Qin machine gun through bribery.

At this moment, Li Lin felt that he could also give it a try!

Anyway, it's nothing if you try it. If you fail, you can honestly make small orders from Feizhou.

If he can get their orders in this country and the goose country, it will definitely be a very good start for him!

"Which side should I go to sell first?" Li Lin began to think again.

In the end, he plans to go to the Goose Country to sell first!

At this time, he had 20 mortars and 50 Colt pistols in his storage space. And some assorted ammo. These were brought back when he came back from Singapore last time.

"I don't have the Browning M2HB heavy machine gun. It seems that they can be transported directly to a certain port. I can take it and go directly to the Goose Country." Li Lin has a plan in mind.

The Browning M2HB heavy machine gun is much more advanced than the Maxim heavy machine gun. He believes that once customers can see it for themselves, it will definitely attract their interest!

"But before you go, you still need to inquire about the information over there!" Li Lin believes that if you want to sell, you must sell it to the Goose Emperor face to face, and only then will you have a chance.

However, he is just a little-known, small company owner, how can he meet the Goose Emperor?

So, he needs someone to let him see the Goose Emperor!

"First, send a group of members to go to the Goose Country to inquire about the news, and it's not too late for me to go there after I have a clue."

During this period of time, Li Lin recruited a group of "knowledgeable" core members, about dozens of people.

They are all Chinese students who came to England to study, both male and female.

Send six international students over, and send another 20 people to protect them.

He directly asked Li Er to handle this matter.

"Well, the Deguo side also has to send someone to fight the front station." Li Lin secretly said in his heart.

Even, he planned that his sales team must be all white people. After all, most of his current subordinates are not business people, and they do not understand many languages.

……

Far away in the United States.

Ogden, Utah.

Jonathan Gun Shop.

"Does John Moses Browning work here?" Sun Feng said with a smile. Behind him, there are 10 core members of Qinglongmen, all of them are tall and majestic, giving people the appearance of being close to strangers.

Yes, Sun Feng originally studied in London, and later joined Qinglongmen. A few months ago, he was sent by Li Lin to the US Emperor to find someone.

"Who are you?" Jonathan looked at the group of oriental people in front of him and suddenly became a little wary.

"This gentleman, we are from Lee's Arms Company. We came here this time to find John Moses Browning. We want him to be our company's chief designer of small arms!" Sun Feng said.

"What?" Jonathan was stunned for a moment.

When did your son become so famous?

Can a weapons company come to hire him personally?

Or the chief designer of small arms!

"Son, someone is looking for you."

Soon, 37-year-old Browning came out.

Today, Browning has not yet partnered with his brother to open the "Browning Gun Factory~lightnovelpub.net~ Currently, he is only helping in his father's gun shop, and at the same time designing some weapons for some weapons companies part-time.

Not yet very famous!

In 1897, Browning used the energy of the gas in the chamber of the gun as the energy source for automatic reloading, and designed an automatic musket. .

In 1900, Browning designed the first automatic pistol, the M1900.

So, he only started to become famous in 1897.

"Who is looking for me?" Browning came out and asked.

"Mr. Browning, we are from the Lee's Arms Company in Singapore, and we want to hire you as the chief designer of small arms of our company!" Sun Feng repeated again.

"Lee's Arms Company? Never heard of it!" Browning showed a trace of contempt in his eyes.

A weapons company run by an Oriental?

In 1883, he designed works with the Winchester Company, the largest firearms supplier in the United States at that time, and was also bought a patent by the other party. So Browning still has a certain arrogance.

Ordinary small arms companies are not in his sight at all!

"Our company was established not long ago. It's normal that you haven't heard of it. We've heard that you are a genius, so are you interested in working in our company?" Sun Feng asked.

"No interest~" As soon as Browning heard that he was away from home in Singapore, he immediately lost interest. Besides, he didn't want to go to a small company at all!

"Mr. Browning, don't rush to refuse, why don't I show you one of our company's products, how would you rate it?" Sun Feng said.
