The Rise of the Empire

Chapter 113: Negotiated

   "The Russians are stunned!" After drying the Russians for nearly two months, Ruprecht finally decided to meet with the Russian representatives. The situation is obvious now! Whether it is for the navy or for diplomacy, the Russians must admit counsel! A good weapon can only be said to be regrettable if you cannot buy it yourself. If you let the enemy buy it, it would be a tragedy! This is not the time for heartache and money! Although the Japanese are godsons of the British, they didn't say that they would not buy German weapons? Therefore, the Russians must start before the Japanese.

   "Uh, this is?" When the Russian walked into the meeting room, Ruprecht saw a somewhat familiar figure, not Makanov, how could this Russian soldier have the beauty next to him? Ruprecht directly ignored the two Russian uncles next to him. "This person looks familiar!"

   "You saw her when you met with His Majesty Nicholas. And you talked with her." Earl Schelling reminded him immediately.

   "Oh, I think of it, it's the girl who blocked Makanov and Kulopat gold!" Ruprecht suddenly realized. Today's countess looks more bright and beautiful. The visitor wore a white pleated skirt with rose-colored lace embroidered on the hem. His complexion was fair, the eyebrows were slender, and the delicate features were just right to embellish the complexion, and the high-wounded bun band. With a different flavor. The slightly nervous expression made her arousing affection like a frightened deer.

"Okay, no problem, the Russians have reached the point of sending girls off, there will be no problems with this negotiation!" At this time, our prince’s brains once again jumped to the country of Java, Ukraine The soft girl is currently! However, the appeal is still not as big as the British pound!

   "This is Countess Azelina. Starting from today, she will be the liaison officer of the Russian Embassy in Bavaria. If you have any questions, you can contact her directly," Palokin introduced. It’s not a big deal to talk about what happened in Hamburg, but Ruprecht’s actions also allowed the Russians to find the use of the Ukrainian countess, a canary of a family, and nothing was lost. , Maybe you can earn some more, if it weren't for Ruprecht's round-the-world travel, the countess would have taken office long ago!

   "Speaking of business, how are you thinking about?" Ruprecht still has no plans to change the conditions! I am now full of good cards, and the Japanese want to buy them! This one can eat and live the Russians! In the opinion of the Russians, the prince is to make money. For a qualified businessman, if you can't kill him today, he will do business with you tomorrow! Without this kind of foresight, Ruprecht could not develop now!

"We can purchase two warships in the normal order without your advance payment, but the premise is that we need to get a guarantee from you that warships and related drawings produced by your design bureau cannot be imported into Japan! In addition, the price is expensive The party should give an appropriate transfer!" It has been two months since Palokin is unwilling to wait endlessly. Now the situation is changing rapidly. If Japan and Germany really reach an agreement, it will even affect Russia. If the German and French parties formed an alliance in the Far East, then it would really be a loss to my grandma's house.

   "Hehe." Ruprecht's face showed a triumphant smile. The prince is very ambitious. He and the Russians don't just want to do this business! The French franchise and the method of providing complete sets of shipbuilding equipment almost controlled a considerable part of Russia's shipyards, so Ruprecht intends to win the Russian cruiser construction order! If this goal can be achieved, the Japanese order is really nothing!

"As long as there is a ship from your country in the Brom-Fuchs Shipyard! Then we will not accept Japanese orders. As for the price, it depends on the face of this beautiful lady, and for the convenience of women For the future work of the Earl, I am willing to reduce the price by 10,000 pounds. In return, I need to provide samples of the 12-inch and 10-inch guns as soon as possible! How?" Ruprecht looked at the Countess Atelina and said.

   If the first condition of the Russians is the bottom line and cannot be changed, then the second condition is more for the sake of face. Ruprecht could just make a few transfers, not to mention that if he could get the artillery earlier, it would also be of great help to his plan, and the reduction of 10,000 pounds was worth it.

"That's good, I hope your country can start work as soon as possible, and the first start-up capital of £450,000 will be transferred to your company's bank account in 5 days." Without the slightest politeness, the two sides ended up with a few words. Month of negotiations! Palokin's last words finally brought Ruprecht's heart back. If we follow the normal procedures, even if the Russians break the contract, the shipyard will not take any risks!

   After the meeting, using the noon break, Ruprecht specifically discussed some details of the contract with Baron Vittorio! Some things cannot be said in front of the Russians!

  "Pay attention to the construction period. Let’s calculate it according to the normal 30 months. If the Russians want to rush to work, they need to pay extra.

"According to the original idea, the gun mount design can be modified to be compatible with Russian and British guns of the same caliber and the guns we plan to use in the future~lightnovelpub.net~Boss, don't you mean that warships are not produced for the Japanese? In a blink of an eye, Vittorio wanted to understand the key, which was clearly preparing a system for the Three Kingdoms!

"Stupid! Italy! Italy's new battleship also plans to use the British 10-inch gun! I want to take the opportunity to compete for the Italian orders! Although the whole ship can not be bought. But selling a turret and armor is OK! Your ship design bureau has earned enough. We and the Bavarian-Austrian military-industrial complex of the Austro-Hungarian Empire have not opened yet!" Ruprecht said dissatisfied.

   "Boss Shengming!" The baron thought for a while, and added Austria after Italy!

   "New water tube boilers and steam engines can be appropriately used in the power system, and the improvement of the air ducts and chimneys of the battleship can also be tested on this battleship." Ruprecht ordered. The Russians should be guinea pigs, and many good things are cheap for him!

Just as Ruprecht was confessing the matter to the baron, Earl Schelling hurried in and whispered a few words into Ruprecht's ear. Then Ruprecht's face changed, "Today In the afternoon, you are responsible for receiving the Russian delegation. I have something to do."

   "Uh, what can be more important than a few million orders?" The Baron said helplessly.

   "My sister is here..." Ruprecht said without looking back, and immediately left the house with Count Schelling!

   "Aren't you the eldest son?" the baron muttered.
