Looking at Major Mike's confident expression, Fang Lang knew that he was not joking, so he thought for a while and tried:
"Aircraft carrier?"
I originally thought that Major Mike would directly express his inability to do anything.
Unexpectedly, Major Mike shook his head and said:
"This won't work. Even if I give it to you, you can't use it."
Are you sure you are just a major? Is this the confidence a major should have? It’s not that you can’t get an aircraft carrier, it’s just that you can’t use it even if you get it.
But since Major Mike has such confidence, what else is there to say.
"Can I get b29?"
Major Mike still said calmly:
"How much do you want?"
Now it was Fang Lang's turn to feel numb. It seems like this means it’s really possible!
"I don't know what the unit price is."
"There are many B29 models now, with different prices. The unit price of a bomber that has been in service for a long time cannot be as low as 300,000 U.S. dollars. The latest reconnaissance aircraft model costs 700,000 U.S. dollars each."
Fang Lang couldn't help but take a breath when he heard the price. Although Fang Lang knew that this was the latest strategic bomber in the United States, the price was definitely not cheap.
However, this price still scared Fang Lang. He shook his head and secretly said that he couldn't afford it, so let's talk about c46 first!
"Does the minimum cost of c46 be 12,000?"
"I never make random quotes, so be it! I believe we will definitely have the opportunity to cooperate in the future. I will give you five more C46-equipped Pratt & Whitney R-2800-51, double-row cylinder, star-shaped air-cooled piston engines. Wutai.
Let you make stock parts. In addition, ten flight instructors will be arranged for you to stay here and teach your ten pilots how to fly the C46. "
Fang Lang no longer hesitated and stretched out his right hand.
“Happy to work with!”
Mike finally smiled.
“Happy to work with!”
....................................................
"Hello! This is the Brazilian branch of Global Trading Co., Ltd., how can I help you?"
Fang Lang couldn't help but smile with satisfaction when he listened to the sweet goddess coming from the phone receiver. It seemed that the Brazilian branch was developing well!
"I'm looking for manager Radia Redondo. Tell him my name is Fang Lang."
Radia Redondo is the head of the Brazilian branch of Global Trading. He is a tall and thin man of Italian origin.
Fang Lang didn't have much contact with him, but Redondo knew very well who the boss of Global Trading was.
"Okay, wait a minute!"
Sure enough, Redondo's slightly excited voice soon came from the receiver:
"Hello! Are you Mr. Fang? I am Radia Redondo."
Fang Lang didn't have any polite words for his company's employees, but issued his own order:
"Yes, I am Fang Lang. Is it convenient for you to speak now?"
Listening to the voice coming from the receiver, although there was some distortion, Redondo could still tell who the owner of the voice was.
"Please wait!"
Soon, Redondo’s voice came from the receiver:
"Mr. Fang, it's more convenient now, please tell me!"
"I need you to find a way to spread a message to a specific group of people. It must be done secretly so that no one can find out about us. Can you do it?"
"Just spreading the news? No problem."
"Very good, listen carefully..."
Although the news Fang Lang said on the phone was a bit baffling to him, Redondo still listened to Fang Lang's words very patiently and repeatedly asked about the areas he was unsure about.
"Hurry up, you only have three days, do you understand?"
"Mr. Fang, I understand! Make arrangements immediately."
Fang Lang hung up the phone, picked up the cigar next to him, and took a deep breath.
In the smoke, Fang Lang's eyes were a little erratic, making it difficult to figure out.
Soon, a news began to spread among the Japanese in Brazil, and the winner group and loser group of the entire Chendao League organization became quarrelsome.
"You idiots, didn't you swear that the British and American devils have won? Look, the current president of Brazil wants to surrender to the great empire."
"This news is absolutely false. The war is over and Japan has surrendered. How could President Vargas surrender to the Axis powers at this time?"
"The great empire will never be defeated. You capitulators should all die."
"This news is definitely a conspiracy. Please stay calm. We need to analyze why the empire has already been defeated and surrendered, and there is still such news."
"You idiots, bastards, do you still believe the so-called news that Japan has been defeated at this time? This news only further proves the empire's invincible strength."
"If the empire wins, I can understand President Vargas wanting to surrender. But why does the news say that the Brazilian military will refuse to surrender!
They even wanted to launch a military coup and refused to accept surrender. This makes no sense at all. If the empire is victorious, the whole country should have unanimously agreed to surrender! "
"These military personnel who refuse to surrender have obviously been trained by the British and American monsters. They must be on the side of the British and American monsters! They say you are stupid, but you are still unwilling to admit it. What a bastard!"
"Since you think the empire has won, why did the Brazilian expeditionary force return home victorious? You are the stubborn bastards."
"How do you know they returned home victorious and not defeated? Do you believe everything they say? This is obviously the war propaganda of Britain and the United States, you idiots."
The two sides were arguing fiercely, and the winning group was obviously more willing to believe that the news was true.
The loser group wanted to dissuade everyone from calming down and suspected that there was some ulterior conspiracy in this matter.
But no one can convince anyone.
Soon everyone parted ways, and the winning group with similar views organized a separate gathering again to celebrate the empire's great victory.
In the loser group, some people began to waver, not sure whether they were really misled by the publicity.
After two days of fermentation, the news became known to almost everyone of Japanese descent in Brazil.
It even reached the ears of other Brazilians, most of whom scoffed at the Japanese's so-called news that President Vargas was preparing to surrender to Japan.
The paranoia of thinking it was a Japanese-Brazilian started to strike again.
This made many Brazilian people begin to feel that these Japanese people were simply unreasonable.
However, some Brazilian intellectuals and politicians saw a different meaning in this news.
The recent political situation has been so turbulent, and President Vargas' interference in the election has become increasingly blatant.
The opposition has become increasingly vocal.
Is there really a military coup brewing under this seemingly calm lake?
After receiving the news, some members of the Labor Party reported the news to President Vargas.
"You mean, these Japanese think I'm going to surrender to Japan?"
"Your Excellency, we all know that the war is over. We cannot surrender to a country that has already surrendered.
However, the news that the military may launch a coup requires our attention. "
“As the parties involved in this news, we can see at a glance that this is false news, so there is no need to be nervous at all.
My rights are granted by the Constitution. The army was all promoted by me. How could they launch a coup to overthrow me?
These are all plots by the Social Democratic Party and the National League to alienate our relationship with the military, and they should not be taken seriously. "
"Although, this news may not be true. However, I think it is better for us to be cautious."
"What you said makes sense. Then order Rio Police Chief Amycus Lechner to be responsible for monitoring the military's movements!"
Similarly, as the other party involved in this news, the Brazilian military, to be precise, General Dutra, of course also received the news.
When he first heard the news, he thought it was funny, but then he broke into cold sweat.
The Japanese actually predicted that he would launch a coup. Although the reason was very ridiculous, the result was the same result.
This made him very angry, and he couldn't help but speed up the pace of deployment.
The Brazilian-Japanese winning group finally came up with a decision after two consecutive days of deliberation.
That is to fully support President Vargas's surrender to Japan.
As a Japanese, you must shoulder the responsibilities of a subject of the Empire even if you are far away overseas.
In order to defeat the Brazilian military and oppose the surrender military coup, Japanese expatriates should take the initiative to protect the safety of President Vargas.
For this reason, the Japanese victors began to organize all the people, and all of them carried weapons and gathered in Rio de Janeiro, the capital of Brazil, shouting slogans to protect the safety of President Vargas.
This made Rio de Janeiro Police Chief Lechner, who had just been asked to monitor the military's movements, very angry.
A large police presence had to be deployed in the capital to provide order.
Before we knew it, October 29th came, and more than 40,000 Japanese gunmen gathered in Rio. Most of the Japanese men basically joined in.
Among them, there are also some fanatical Japanese women among them.
No matter how the police in Rio drove them away, the Japanese gunmen remained unmoved and confronted the police, and many exchanges of fire broke out.
Because they suspected that the police and the military were working together. The so-called protection of the presidential palace was actually a matter of house arrest and preventing the president from surrendering to Japan according to his own ideas.
At the same time, Fang Lang, who was far away in Natal, was communicating with Colonel Teach through an encrypted phone call.
"Brother Teach, in order to support General Dutra, I have returned to Natal. My five hundred marines are ready to go into battle at any time."
"Haha... Fang, Natal is a small town and it won't have any impact on the overall situation of Rio! Just rest assured and wait for the good news of our victory."
"Of course I know that Natal is insignificant, but with five hundred people like me joining, it will definitely provide some support for your actions, right?"
"Oh! How do you want to support us! You are far away in Natal! By the time your warship arrives in Rio, everything will have been settled."
