Chapter 948 Order No. 106

  Liu Qingshan and his party stayed at the house of Ivanov and Katyusha.

  Now that he and Sergey are connected, Liu Qingshan doesn’t need to show off again, after all, he didn’t apply for a visa when he came this time.

  Old Jiang stayed here for one night, then took people back to Gongqingcheng, and began to plan the Katyusha business.

  Komsomolsk City is the largest industrial city in the Far East, and it would be of great significance if all the bonds here were gathered into one's hands.

  The Black Bear Gang also acted very actively this time. Medvic is an ambitious guy. Medvic has no doubts about the big cake that Liu Qingshan drew for her.

  So the forces of the Black Bear Gang in various cities also took action, buying shops in the most prosperous places in the city, and preparing for the opening of the Katyusha firm.

  As for the products, the two parties have already agreed: the Black Bear Gang was originally responsible for the wholesale business, but now it has made some changes and changed it to exclusively supply the Katyusha Trading Company.

   For the Black Bear Gang, there is no loss, and there is a chance to participate in dividends in the end, Medvic is of course happy.

  Although Liu Qingshan told him about the business methods, Medvic didn't understand anything.

  He also didn't believe that bonds worth tens of thousands of rubles could eventually become waste paper.

  But Medvic knows one thing: as long as you hold on to this thick leg, you will definitely have meat.

   At least on this point, Medvic is still smart. He knows how the Black Bear Gang rose up, and the rest is to go all the way to the black and finish.

  For Katyusha, the biggest problem now is the lack of manpower. It is impossible for her to run from city to city. At the beginning, she felt a little lack of skills.

   There is no other way, this girl can only ask Liu Qingshan for advice.

   Liu Qingshan does have experience in this area: "It's time to use the wealth your grandfather left you."

   Katyusha nodded, and then went to contact those subordinates of her grandfather.

  Although many people are old, their children and grandchildren can just form a community of interests with Katyusha.

   These things, Liu Qingshan can only give guidance to Katyusha, but can't do it for her. This can be regarded as a small test for this girl.

  Liu Qingshan was actually in a foreign country, and it was rare for him to be free for a few days.

   Since I had nothing to do, I went to the riverside for a walk. The river was about to open. Compared with winter, the river surface was a bit more alive.

   There are more and more water birds that come early, circling and singing on the river, or preying on small fish in the already civilized river chazi.

  For them, a vibrant season is about to begin.

  Liu Qingshan's heart is also full of hope.

   Waiting until the evening of the third day, when Liu Qingshan was walking outside the villa, he finally saw Sergey again.

   It is obvious that the excitement on this guy's face cannot be hidden.

  Liu Qingshan couldn't help feeling refreshed, and stepped forward to shake hands with Sergey: "Friend, I am looking forward to your good news."

  Sergey also managed to squeeze out a smile: "Liu, my friend, our luck is good."

   It seems that there is something to talk about. Liu Qingshan looked around and led Sergey into Katyusha's house.

   Sergey obviously knew the original owner of this villa, so after entering, he gave a respectful military salute to the small red brick building.

  This action made Liu Qingshan nod slightly: at least it proves that Sergey still has his own bottom line in his heart.

  Liu Qingshan led Sergey to his room, the firewood in the fireplace was still crackling lightly, and the room was very warm.

  Taking off their coats, the two of them sat on the sofa. After Li Tie brought over a pot of black tea, he also silently exited.

   "Liu, you know, it is obviously impossible to take advantage of the large ships in service." Sergey said slowly after taking a sip of tea.

  Liu Qingshan nodded, expressing his understanding, he did not have such high expectations.

Sergey continued: "However, in the shipbuilding platform of the Nikolayev Black Sea Shipyard, there is a large ship under construction, numbered 'Order 106', and the construction rate has exceeded 60%. Currently, due to For some reason, construction has been suspended."

   Order No. 106, isn’t that the big ship that Xiaowu bought later?

  Liu Qingshan is of course familiar with this period of history. It seems that the goal has not changed after going round and round. This is probably fate.

   As for the reason Sergey said, of course, there is no money.

  The big ship was piled up with real money, and at the current price, it would require a huge sum of several billion to tens of billions.

   Given the situation where the Soviet Union is about to go downhill, how can there be any funds to fill this big hole?

  Repressing the excitement in his heart, Liu Qingshan also took a sip of tea: "Of course, but it must have a blueprint."

  The construction drawings of an aircraft carrier are calculated in terms of tons, and there must be ten tons and eight tons.

   "There is no problem with the drawings, but we are only responsible for leaving the factory. As for how to transport, we don't care." Sergey quickly put the matter aside.

   It is impossible for a big guy like an aircraft carrier to sneak back. There are many obstacles along the way.

  For example, according to the original script, after buying an empty shell aircraft carrier in the name of commercial use, it was stuck by a certain country during transportation and demanded to pay a billion dollars in tolls.

   This is not because of being poor and crazy, but because there are people blocking it behind the scenes.

   Even if it was a big ship at that time, all the weapons and equipment had been dismantled, and there was only a steel shell left, that would not work.

   Now you know how difficult it is to make something, and how much you have endured humiliation during the development of China.

  Liu Qingshan can't expect too much: if the other party is willing to let go of the sale, it is already a great opportunity.

  If you hadn't caught up with the current situation of internal and external difficulties, the authorities would definitely ignore you.

  So Liu Qingshan put down his teacup with a smile: "I have a Longteng nationality trading company under me, and we didn't buy this big ship for the purpose of conquering the stars and the sea."

   "I just want to convert it into a super-large cruise ship for sightseeing and attract tourists. Is there a good reason for this?"

   "Very business visionary idea, I wish you success."

  Sergey shrugged his shoulders. Everyone knew each other well, and all they needed was a reason.

  Military use should be used by civilians, which is indeed a good excuse.

  Just in this way, the weapons and equipment on the ship must be dismantled.

  After hearing Sergey's tactful expression of this opinion, Liu Qingshan nodded with a smile: He will be satisfied if he can get back a shell.

   Do you think others can just watch, you get a real aircraft carrier back?

  Sergey breathed a sigh of relief again, but in this way, a new problem appeared again. Dismantling the aircraft carrier also requires wages. Sergey thought it over and said:

   "Liu, in this regard, you must first pay at least 100 million US dollars as the dismantling fee."

  Liu Qingshan couldn't help but blinked: "Comrade Sergey, I will pay you the favor fee, don't you need to ask for it in this way?"

  The lion opened his mouth wide. The specific price hasn’t been discussed yet, so let’s start with 100 million.

   Then when you have to bargain for a while, do you dare to call out 10 billion?

  Liu Qingshan is not a real fat sheep, let him be slaughtered.

  Sergey showed a wry smile: "Liu, this is just dismantling the components related to weapons. If the entire ship is to be dismantled, the cost will increase several times."

  Seeing that the other party does not seem to be fake, Liu Qingshan knows that he is ignorant. It seems that not only the construction of the aircraft carrier costs money, but also the dismantling.

  So putting this question aside for now, Liu Qingshan continued to ask: "What about other expenses?"

  Sergey is of course prepared: "If it is only sold as old steel, then the value will only be five million dollars."

   "However, dear Liu, I don't think you just need a pile of scrap steel?"

  Sergey still wanted to be humorous, but the joke was not funny at all. Seeing that Liu Qingshan was still watching him seriously, Sergey had no choice but to continue:

   "We will try to keep the non-weapon facilities above, such as power systems, etc., so our price is 150 million U.S. dollars."

   "Add 100 million for disassembly and assembly, so my dear friend, you need to pay a total of 250 million U.S. dollars."

   This is the price given by Sergey, and it is still within the acceptable range of Liu Qingshan.

  However, Liu Qingshan felt that it was still a bit high. In his memory, it seemed that he only spent 20 million US dollars to buy this big ship.

   More than 20 million and more than 200 million, the gap seems a bit big, right?

   Could it be that his memory has gone wrong?

   Thinking about it in his heart, Liu Qingshan also gradually figured it out: the big boat purchased ten years later is really a big shell, and it is still old.

  Now, people are under construction, and new ones cannot be made new.

   Besides, Sergey also promised to keep the systems on the ship as much as possible, which will undoubtedly bring greater convenience to future reconstruction work.

   In this way, it is really not expensive.

  Liu Qingshan then looked at Sergey with a smile: "I bought this big ship in my own name, so the price is too high."

   "Even those top rich people probably won't spend more than 200 million yuan to buy such a big guy as a private yacht, unless they want to conduct motorcycle races on it."

   Bargaining is an essential link, and Sergey is also mentally prepared, so the two of them started to see each other, neither giving in nor giving in.

  Finally, Liu Qingshan took out his trump card: "Comrade Sergey, as a friend, I will transfer one million US dollars to your bank account. This is a testimony of our friendship. I hope you can accept it."

   Sergey was taken aback when he heard it, and then he understood what Liu Qingshan meant. He lit a cigarette, leaned on the sofa and began to puff.

  This kind of thing is also very dangerous for him. If his superiors find out, he will definitely disappear secretly.

   But the allure of one million dollars is also quite huge, making Sergey reluctant to give up at all.

   After smoking a cigarette, Sergey stared into Liu Qingshan's eyes:

   "My bank account is definitely not good, Liu, since we are friends, can you pay me this money when I need it?"

  Sergey's intention is also obvious: Liu Qingshan needs to pay him the favor fee at an appropriate time in the future.

   For this kind of thing, it is impossible for the two parties to sign any agreement. It can only be an oral agreement, so Sergey also needs to take a certain risk. In case Liu Qingshan refuses to admit it in the future, who will he sue?

  Liu Qingshan nodded: "Sergey, thank you for your trust. When you entered the door, you were able to salute the late old general, which also won my respect."

  Sergey's expression was a bit tangled, but he could feel the sincerity from Liu Qingshan.

  He got up and shook hands with Liu Qingshan: "I will contact the higher-ups to re-determine the price, and of course there are other details. You must also be prepared."

   After seeing off Sergey, Li Tie and Li Tieniu appeared in Liu Qingshan's room.

  Li Tieniu's face was full of excitement: "Little brother, is the deal settled? If the money is not enough, I will donate all the money in the family!"

   Liu Qingshan rolled his eyes at him: "Your wife and children are gone?"

   "Hahaha, isn't there a little brother who can make us starve?" Li Tieniu thought about it.

   "And me, I don't need money now." Li Tie also expressed his attitude.

  As two ex-soldiers, they are too aware of the strategic position of the aircraft carrier, even if it makes them bankrupt, they will not hesitate.

   It’s not just them. If Liu Qingshan initiates a call for donations for the purchase of an aircraft carrier, it is estimated that ordinary people across the country will willingly pay.

   "You two should keep the little money." Liu Qingshan smiled and waved his hands. He was very pleased, both of them are kind and righteous men.

  Even if it is him, he can be regarded as a second-hand dealer at best. If he is willing, he can increase the price when he sells the aircraft carrier.

  Of course, Liu Qingshan would definitely not do this kind of thing.

  But after making such a great contribution to the country, he can no longer put money into it himself. Could it be that his money came from the wind?

   Waiting until the evening of the next day, Sergey came to the door again and gave the final price: two hundred million yuan.

   Not too bad, one million in exchange for fifty million.

  Liu Qingshan held Sergey's hand with a smile on his face: "Friend, please believe me, our friendship will never fade."

   Sergey took this reassurance and was completely relieved. Now he can only choose to trust Liu Qingshan.

  According to his judgment, Liu Qingshan's family has a big business, so he shouldn't hack his million.

  Next, the two sides discussed some specific details in detail, and then shook hands and said goodbye in a cordial and friendly atmosphere.

  The next day, Liu Qingshan bid farewell to Ivanov and Katyusha, and then went to the Tiger Gang.

   Medvic wanted to keep Liu Qingshan to stay for two more days, but Liu Qingshan had no choice but to send a car to **** them back.

  Following the way we came, we returned to the wood-carved hall in the birch forest. It was already dusk.

   Liu Qingshan crossed the river immediately without delay.

  The ice on the surface of the river is no longer open to traffic, even if people leave, it is dangerous.

  A small leader of the Black Bear Gang guarding here told the situation, and then tried his best to keep Liu Qingshan to wait for a few more days, and then return after the river is opened.

  But Liu Qingshan was really in a hurry. He tried it by the river, and felt that he could hold people, so he ignored dissuasion and set foot on his way home.

  The three of them still took some protection. Li Tie held a coil of rope in his hand, and Li Tieniu was also pulling a rope on his shoulder. Behind the rope was a small wooden boat.

  The wooden boat is placed on a sledge, which is quite light.

   I was careful all the way, and it went smoothly. I walked all the way to the center of the river, and nothing happened.

  Li Tieniu couldn't help but chuckle twice: "Those **** know how to scare people, this ice layer is quite solid."

   As soon as the words fell, there was a click under his feet, which made the three of them tremble in shock.
