He got up and left, and he just pulled away for a reason, and the next two things he talked about were too inconvenient for him to go in. Every smart person will have the will to not listen to the secrets of others. The secret is known. Too many, maybe one day you will shoot a bullet from some unexpected place.

After he left, the atmosphere was more mellow, and both were relaxed and did not have much strangeness.

If it is said that wine can make strangers become brothers as quickly as possible in this world, then it is interests and common interests that can make strangers become friends as quickly as possible.

"I haven't asked you yet ...", Doolin wiped his shoulders, and Thomaston reacted when he reported his rank. Only at this time did he realize the superiority of his superiors in allowing him to upgrade. If he was still a lieutenant colonel, maybe Durin would go over him and negotiate directly with a higher general, rather than with him. Du Lin smiled even more, "Colonel Thomas, starting from the 1st of next month, our business will be fulfilled. Before we cooperate, there are certain things to be said in advance, said on the table, right?"

Colonel Thomas nodded. He was still a soldier in his bones. He didn't say anything else as hypocritical as a businessman to test each other. He directly said what Durin wanted to ask, "I can give you a guarantee. The maximum shipping cost for a bottle of wine will not exceed sixty-five cents! ". At this point, Colonel Thomas still had the right to make a decision, because if the price was negotiated, it would be negotiated. There must be a result on the spot.

Once something like "study" appears, the next time we talk about prices, the other party will reduce prices.

Sixty-five?

Du Lin touched his chin. The price was acceptable but not acceptable. "Colonel Thomas took the liberty to ask whether the price is the same whether it is near or far, or is it different according to the itinerary?"

Colonel Thomas froze, "Of course not, this is just the cost of going to the furthest port, including factors such as the return trip may be empty. If the distance is closer, thirty to forty will be almost."

Du Lin nodded indifferently, and made a new request, "If I can, can I see those ships?"

"Of course, when do you want to watch the boat?"

"After dinner!"

The two quickly had a dinner in this special place. They didn't even have an hour when they shared, and Du Lin still paid 3,000 yuan. When they got to the beach, there was already a speedboat waiting for Matos. A short-haired young man stood straight in the driver's seat and looked at Colonel Thomas without squinting, as if he hadn't seen Durin at all.

Colonel Thomas and Doolin got on the ship, he gave a command, and the speedboat immediately left the port, moving quickly along the coast of Irian towards the south. It took about ten minutes or so to see another port, a military port. There are many warships moored in the inner port, and some weapons are covered by canvas. Outside the port, there are four white freighters and five "old ships" that are obviously the same as inner port warships.

The patrolling navies turned a blind eye to the speedboat of Colonel Thomas, just as the young people who drove the speedboat could not see Doolin, nor could they see the speedboat. The two boarded a modified freighter of one of the warships. The entire cabin was almost empty, and the maintenance was very good. Some parts had some unwashed butter. Where is this retired warship? It is simply a new warship!

He has a new understanding of the guts of these navies. At first, he thought that the navy's own operation of sea transportation was just a hidden rule, but it seemed that this was not as simple as the hidden rules. This was simply a fruit of illegal activities. .

In fact, this is not to blame Du Lin. The situation in the Navy is a bit special.

During the Patriotic War, attacks from the Commonwealth basically took place on land, and the attacks on the sea were not absent, but they were more reserved than the crazy momentum on the ground. The navies of both sides returned tentatively after firing a few guns. The house is resting. After the new party came to power after the war, the first severe blame was the navy's attitude of inertia. It believed that the navy did not have the responsibility to defend the empire and crack down on the invaders.

In fact, this can't be blamed on the navy. In fact, regardless of the empire or the federal side, in addition to those that cannot land, there are a lot of shore guns in deepwater ports and throat mains. If you are not ready to sacrifice at any time, you will not. May break in. Instead of wasting shells and crystals and killing a large number of navy veterans, it would be better to turn around at your door.

Subsequently, Magus decided to reduce the navy's military expenditures, and this part of the military expenditures was used to improve and develop new weapons and equipment. In addition to losing a large amount of military expenses every year, at the same time high-level navy officers have also been "retired" from retiring some generals. These generals have left the army, but their influence is still there. Many people even think that these generals have carried a blame for the entire navy. So after deliberations at the high levels of the navy, they came up with an interesting plan-self-sufficiency.

Perhaps they did indeed manage the shipping business with this purpose in the beginning, but soon the navy became a weapon for them to make money. They had the navy's lack of funds, and the two sides quickly distinguished the master and slave from their counterparts. Coupled with the fact that high-ranking navy officers have also joined this feast of money, the navy has basically eroded.

The cabinet formed by the New Party is also very clear about this matter, but when they are clear, there is no way to deal with the navy. Either take down most of the admirals, and then face the overall possible upheaval-this is not impossible, even if it is not possible, those self-defeating admirals will create this atmosphere, The navy had to be forced to oppose the empire, and those generals could defend themselves by this means.

Or indulge the navy, as long as they do not affect the policy implementation and political direction of the empire, as long as they do not vote against the enemy and treason, then let them be self-sufficient!

Repeated reductions in naval military expenditures have made the navy even more recklessly making money, so a picture appeared, using the imperial warships to blatantly transport goods to the rich.

"How about, are you still satisfied with these ships?", Colonel Thomas patted a metal warehouse wall beside him, and the dull percussion sounded with a touch of tremor, making it feel solid.

Of course, Doolin was very satisfied. He shook hands with Colonel Thomas. "I don't think I have to keep watching. We can sign an agreement after you have the exact list of expenses!"

Colonel Thomas held his heart out of excitement and shook the right arm of Durin's palm firmly. "I'll send you back. We will meet again at the latest two days!"

After Du Lin left his contact information, he left the military port in a speedboat. He thought of much more and more important than transporting private wine. Obviously, the navy is a force that can be attracted. He would not be naive to think that as long as the money is spent, the navy can help him to do anything wrong. However, as long as the money is spent, some navy can be "retired" and "eliminated", and it does not involve military affairs. Secret things.

For example ... weapons? !!

The difference between non-military weapons and military weapons is too great. Military weapons have higher strength, greater lethality, and longer range, much better than those "toy guns" in his hand. He doesn't have a weapon-equipped platform or the latest war weapon, but he can change it himself.

In the dream, the tank was originally an "agricultural tractor", not to mention that it was not difficult to convert a truck into an armed vehicle under the huge kinetic energy provided by Lu Jing.

Of course, this needs to establish appropriate cooperation with the Navy first, and then implement it step by step.

After Du Lin left the port, Colonel Thomas immediately went to the port headquarters to meet the commander-in-chief of the navy stationed on the side of Ilion, a major general of the Empire. Regardless of the fact that the Imperial Army does not listen to the navy, it is not unconditional, that is, the navy must remain loyal to the empire, and obey the empire's combat orders and transfer orders.

A small formation has been stationed here since the Ilian naval port was abandoned. A total of six warships ready for combat and eight training ships for training remain here.

The warships that Du Lin saw outside the harbour were actually training ships. They modified seven ships, leaving only one for training.

"General, I'm back." Thomas knocked straight at the door and stood outside. With a "come in", he pushed in the door, like the young man driving a speedboat, staring straight ahead, "I have met Mr. Dorian of Irian, he and I Having a big business ~ lightnovelpub.net ~ From next month, hundreds of thousands of bottles of wine will be shipped to the Empire every month. "

Major General is an old man in his fifties who does not look like a major figure like Major General. He is not tall, thin, and has gray hair and baldness. The wrinkles on his face were like slashes with a knife and axe. The wrinkles on the forehead at the moment he raised his eyes could kill mosquitoes.

"Oh?" He had a loud voice, with a hint of surprise in his voice. "Are you sure it's hundreds of thousands instead of tens of thousands?"

Colonel Thomas answered a "yes" aloud, and Major General immediately smiled with an eyebrow, "OK, good." He couldn't help but stand up and walked back and forth a few steps, "How much would you offer him? It would be scary if it was too high To people! "

"No more than sixty-five points, a bottle!"

The major general took a breath and whispered, "It's half, thirty, ten bottles are three, 100,000 bottles are 30,000, hundreds of thousands ...", his eyes narrowed, "a dozen 200,000 ... "

"You went to talk about it, it became credit for the talk, and the talk broke ..." The major general laughed. "You'll find me another business that can make so much money!"
