Forty boxes of military supplies, for the military factories of the future military industry, is only two or three days of production capacity of a few of its production lines. Among them are grenades, rifle grenades, daggers, and pistols, but most of them are rifle bullets. Calculated according to the cost, it is only 10 million Singapore dollars. If you use the newly released Shiyuan, the amount may be slightly larger.
Of course, it is impossible to use good new products from the factory for things used by the indigenous people. After Sun Xiaorou returned to the apocalypse, she immediately contacted Wang Qing from the logistics department and asked her to bring out a batch of old goods from the warehouse that were packed at the bottom of the box, ready to be sent to the shooting range for destruction, and to be re-cleaned and packed.
Because NAC is very careful about the maintenance of ammunition and weapons, these repackaged military supplies look like new ones from the factory. Among the twenty containers used as ransoms, a small amount of ammunition was replaced with dumb bombs with hollowed-out primers and hidden at the bottom of the containers.
Specific transmitters are installed in the vacant positions of these dumb bombs, which can send coordinate signals to the outside world at a certain frequency until the built-in air lithium battery is completely exhausted.
Without reconnaissance satellites, it is extremely difficult to accurately locate the Moorsi tribe on the African savannah. This requires local guides and experienced scouts to go deep into the wilderness. However, with these arms and supplies equipped with transmitters, all problems are solved.
After finishing all the work, Xiaorou then found Wang Qing, and soon the logistics department transferred more than a dozen trucks to transport the military supplies to the port.
"Thank you, it's really helpful." Seeing the port crane loading boxes of military supplies onto the cargo ship, Xiaorou smiled and nodded to Wang Qing to thank her, "How many credits should I pay you for these military supplies?"
"No, no, no, they are all used goods that are ready to be disposed of. Even if you don't want them, we will take these things to the shooting range." Wang Qing waved her hands and said cheerfully.
Although Wang Qing moved from the position of warehouse manager to the head of the logistics department, her identity has not changed. In her eyes, the entire NAC is the Marshal's private property. As the second wife of His Majesty the Marshal, Xiaorou, please ask her for such a trivial matter as nothing.
"That won't work, Jiang... Marshal said, since I'm negotiating with you in the name of future development, it's better to follow normal business procedures." Xiaorou shook her head and said, insisting on paying for this Arms payments.
Hearing Sun Xiaorou's words, Wang Qing couldn't help but smile, but said in her heart that if you hadn't come to negotiate with me, what other company would have? Don’t even think about it!
Since the military industry was gradually taken back from the military government, the military government began to tighten the weapons circulating on the market to prevent people with evil intentions from hoarding arms. A lot of equipment would rather go to waste than be dumped on the market.
It's not like no one has ever thought of using those scrapped military supplies. They wanted to buy them at low prices and sell them to the South or other regions by bribing Wang Qing. However, no matter how much the offer was, she sternly rejected it without exception and turned it over to the NAC prosecutorial office.
In terms of loyalty, no one can compare with the first generation of people who followed the marshal to conquer the world. The survivors who had just emerged from the shelter might not realize it, but they respected that person from the bottom of their hearts.
Of course, she just said the words in her heart before.
After all, in her opinion, this future development was probably the result of the second lady signing up to relieve her boredom. She probably didn't care about how much money she could make, so she said casually.
"Just watch and give it."
Although Wang Qing didn't take it too seriously, Xiaorou thought carefully for a moment and offered a price of 10,000 credits for a box of military supplies. Wang Qing, who had no intention of bargaining, readily agreed and asked her deputy to handle the transfer.
On the other side, just as Xiaorou followed Wang Qing's deputy to handle the transfer business, Jiang Chen, who rarely returned to the apocalypse from the present world, held a temporary meeting at the Marshal's Mansion. His majesty, the marshal who had never seen the dragon, finally showed his face. Naturally, all the top executives of NAC were sitting in the conference room. In addition to the fact that the governors of each colony were unable to be present, even the people from Sixth Street and Liudeng Town came over in person.
"Don't be so nervous. We are just discussing very common issues." Jiang Chen couldn't help but smile as he looked at his subordinates sitting at attention.
Ever since the portal connecting the two worlds was opened, his mentality has undergone a subtle change.
how to say
I feel that the burden on me is much lighter, and I feel much more easy-going in front of these old subordinates.
After clearing his throat, Jiang Chen gestured to Han Junhua, who was standing next to him, and the document was quickly distributed to each meeting participant.
"The entire Wanghai City is like a powder keg. Every survivor has a gun in his hand. Many of them were survivors who used to make a living in the wasteland, and many of them may have been working as predators in some corner. nac Let’s not be held accountable for their crimes in other places, but it is undeniable that if these people cannot find jobs, they may cause hidden dangers to the stability of Wanghai City. Chu Nan, please report on the employment situation in the Sixth Block.”
"Yes, my dear lord marshal." Chu Nan smiled, stood up and nodded slightly, "According to the data provided by various trade unions, including freelance jobs such as mercenaries, guards, and hunter groups, the number of unemployed people in the Sixth District last quarter The rate is ten percent.”
Ten percent is just an estimate. It is simply unrealistic in the wasteland to make complete statistics accurate to the decimal point. And because combat professions such as mercenaries and caravan guards consume a large amount of manpower, it is difficult to make accurate statistics on these highly mobile populations.
"Ten percent, right? For the Sixth District... this figure is not bad." Jiang Chen nodded, "In order to find something to do for those who have guns and leisure time, the Marshal's Office has studied and decided to start from next The document you have in your hands now will be promulgated starting this month. I hope to hear your opinions and see if there is anything else worth revising in this document."
Lying in everyone's hands is a document called "A Bill Concerning the Limited Opening of the Slave Trade and African Investment Promotion Measures." The document stipulates that, taking into account respect for local laws and cultural customs, the military government will be open to African regions in the slave trade. Slaves can be sold and used in Africa. If they are brought to the NAC or other colonies, their slave status will be automatically cancelled.
In addition, the document also stipulates that factories are not allowed to be opened in Africa, legal NAC citizens are not allowed to be attacked, private mercenary groups are encouraged to enter Africa, etc.
After reading the document, Cheng Weiguo raised his hand.
After noticing it, Jiang Chen nodded to him.
"Why don't we just send an expeditionary force?" Cheng Weiguo asked, "I heard that the Moorish tribe attacked our citizens in the Lake Victoria Development Zone. We can just use this as an excuse to start a war."
"Because it is much more difficult to deal with than in North America. Mombasa alone has a population of hundreds of thousands, and the human resources there exceed our imagination. Small tribes gather around large tribes, and large tribes surrender to larger tribes. This has formed It was originally a feudal system. Setting foot on the African continent as a NAC means going to war with the United Arab Emirates, and the biggest spoils we can get are just what we have already obtained from them." Jiang Chen shook his head. He shook his head and said.
Counting the refugees who fled from Europe, Central Asia, South Asia, and the east coast of South America, the population of the African continent is already unimaginably high.
And the most important thing is that this is not a question of winning or not, but a question of no benefit at all.
NAC has already obtained the fertile Lake Victoria Development Zone without any effort. More than 10 million acres of land are waiting for them to develop. Now, only one million acres have been developed in half a year. Just the food produced by these million acres is enough to feed the entire NAC population. On the nac side, all that needs to be paid is some cheap bullets or obsolete power armor.
Even if all four legions with more than 100,000 men were thrown over and it took two or three years to defeat the entire east coast of Africa, the NAC would still be farming in Lake Victoria at most. Cheng Weiguo just raised this issue from the perspective of a soldier. If you think about it for a moment, you can still understand the pros and cons.
"Since there are no opinions, let's vote by a show of hands." Jiang Chen looked around.
Surprisingly, even Cheng Weiguo raised his hand.
The bill passed unanimously.
