Fang Lang spared no effort for business, and he did not forget to promote his good friend Colonel Teach.
Seeing what Fang Lang said with raised eyebrows at him, Colonel Teach was immediately moved. How many soldiers don't want to have a new warship on their hands?
"Do you really have channels to buy the latest American products?"
"Of course, if I can't get it. Why are you coming to see General Leta? Let me tell you this! The Americans are disarmament now, so a lot of equipment in active service has to be retired.
And I have a way to get these guys who just retired. "
This can be considered a change from the past. When the fierce battle was in full swing, the Americans were certainly unwilling to sell the equipment they desperately needed to their little brother.
However, now that the US military needs major disarmament, it certainly won’t do to throw so much equipment into its hands!
If Fang Lang didn't give Major Mike such an idea. Americans will soon start selling their equipment all over the world.
Now Fang Lang just moved the time forward.
Fang Lang's words completely ignited the fire in Colonel Teach's heart. He stood up and paced back and forth in the office, obviously thinking about the feasibility of the matter.
Lieutenant Blackwell next to him said:
"Fang, are all the American equipment you can get? Why did I hear people from the Army say that they want to buy Soviet 34s!"
This time it was Fang Lang's turn to be surprised.
"What the hell, the Army wants 34 from the Soviet Army?"
Hearing those words, Shata realized that the current hot war still had something formal to do!
Small countries are re-dividing the world's interests, and the United Nations is still wrangling.
Although signs of the end of the hot war have appeared, it has not officially ended yet. The major powers now still need to consider the issue of which side they take.
The Soviet Army's 34 tank did perform very well in the European War. It's no wonder that the Brazilian army has no idea.
I'm sure no one has thought about the Kraut's tank withdrawal first! It's a pity that the Kraut has perished. If you want to buy it, you can only collect the junk. There is no pre-sales service.
The main tank of the Americans in the Seven War was the Sherman tank. Unfortunately, the strength shown on the battlefield was not even ranked among the last seven tanks.
In the early stage, in order to deal with the German King Tiger tank, the United States developed the excellent Fanglang tank. Unfortunately, it did not pass the test of small battles, so its current reputation is not as loud as the Soviet Union's 34 tank.
Unfortunately, the number of Fanglang tanks is not very small. If the U.S. military prioritizes entering the Sherman, it probably has little hope of purchasing Fanglang tanks for the Brazilian Army.
Thinking about the outer sand tower, I can't help but feel a little discouraged. I can now get the Soviet equipment. "You have also heard the news. The 34 is indeed an excellent tank that has been tested in actual combat, but it is probably not difficult for you to purchase it!"
Colonel Tiqi’s words rekindled Ruan Qiu’s hope, which had just sunk to the bottom of his heart, and he quickly said:
"Oh! Why do you say that?"
"Because you are almost fully armed now! Adding Soviet-style equipment will definitely increase the difficulty of front-line support. You heard that some people at the lower levels also hope that this incident will cause the United States to be full of anger."
When Ruan Qiu said that, he understood. There is nothing to say. I hope that will come? "You understand, thank you two brothers for reminding me. If the business is successful, I will give you a big gift to express my gratitude!"
"Fang, a big gift is of no use? How about a destroyer?"
Colonel Teach put his arm around Shatta's shoulders and joked.
"You wanted to give him a boat, but it's a pity that you dare!"
Of course, Ruan Qiu may privately purchase military equipment and give it to foreign contract bases. Even if it is a gift, it can only be given to the Navy Department and distributed by us.
I also belong to the Navy. If I directly specify who to give the equipment to, it will cause necessary trouble. I am vague about that, so I can only joke.
After joking for a while, several people had lunch together, which was considered a complicated gathering.
morning,
Ruan Qiu knocked on the door of General Leta's office. Since he had not made an appointment, he met General Leta without any hindrance.
As the head of the General Front Logistics Department, General Letta also holds the rank of general. Sitting at a narrow desk, he looks a bit short. His round face is full of smiles, and his warm and indifferent attitude on the phone is exactly the same. .
Shatta also stood at attention and saluted with a smile.
"Colonel Fang, sit down slowly, sit down slowly, if he comes again you will go to Natal to find him!"
Seeing General Letta, who stood up from his desk only reaching his chin, coldly stretched out his hand, Ruan Qiu quickly reached down and held it.
And based on my guidance, I made it to the reception area next to it.
The sofa in the reception area does not look old. Although the entire office is small, it feels like there is nothing going on. On the contrary, it makes people feel that the office is not worthy of the post-minister status below.
The thing is, when people see such an environment, they must think that the minister behind them is a good and honest official.
It's a pity that Ruan Qiu has seen people who eat chaffy vegetables every day and are actually extremely corrupt officials.
Moreover, judging from General Letta's attitude outside the phone call, it is certain that Letta is really an upright official.
The more an official flaunts his integrity, the more corrupt he becomes when he is not. Unfortunately, the Intelligence Bureau did not dare to investigate the low-level generals of his own army, allowing Shatta to have false information from the people behind his back.
General Leta's behavior made Ruan Qiu deal with it more cautiously, and he quietly put away the local specialties he had prepared.
Since others have shown a clean image to others, they will obviously take advantage of him outside the office.
"Mr. Minister, I'm really sorry. The fleet has just returned from Japan and there are very few things that need to be arranged. That's why I didn't come to visit you until today! Please forgive me!"
"Haha... I understand! I understand! It seems that Colonel Fang brought you good news that time, didn't he?" I thought that General Leta directly got to the point. I felt that although he was very cold towards me on the surface, he was very cold in his heart. There is no such thing as a business-like attitude that would put people off thousands of miles away!
After all, it was the first time they met. Later, his behavior of privately purchasing airplanes obviously aroused the disgust of others.
"What Mr. Minister is saying is that your friend in the United States told you that we will participate in that tender, and I hope Mr. Minister can give us a quota."
"Oh! That's really good news. Please tell you the name of our company. Instruct your secretary to add our company name to the list of bidding companies."
"Ruan Qiu Trading is a newly registered American company. We are now responsible for processing all equipment for the US military. We have no equipment for the Eighth Army, Navy, and Air Force. We are the designated seller of equipment for the US military."
This is a new company established by Mike Trading Natural Affairs Global Trading and Pershing School. As for the company boss, he is a retired American Lieutenant General Jefferson hired by Wan Chongxin under Pershing's guidance.
Shatta doesn't know exactly how much exchange of interests there was. The only thing I know is whether my original wish to control that company was fulfilled.
Although Global Trading is still the smallest shareholder of Mike Trading, I only own 77% of the company's shares. There are no other shareholders and I have not asked specifically.
Before that company was established, it directly obtained authorization from the US Department of Defense and became the designated seller of military equipment for military service. Just that authorization alone made Shatta feel that it was worth every penny.
"He just said designated seller?"
General Leta was obviously taken aback by Shatta's words. He thought that the company had such a small background. He originally thought that Shatta controlled a large arms smuggling channel.
I carefully handled my own affairs, and the result was that I was a little white shark, which made me feel that it was no longer difficult.
"certainly!"
Shatta once again said.
General Letta's attitude has obviously changed. I know that the young man behind me has very few connections in the US military.
However, I had thought that there would not be such a relationship. If it was like the situation I mentioned, I wanted to
You may have to go through that company to purchase American equipment.
"Colonel Fang, your bidding meeting is scheduled to be held a month ago. I hope he can come forward to invite people from Mike Company to participate."
"There is a problem. The things General Leta told me must be arranged immediately. In order to thank General Leta for his support of your first fleet, you would like to invite him to have dinner at the Olim restaurant in the outer city tonight. I want to know if you can Appreciation."
No matter how General Leta viewed Ruan Qiu, Shatta had to make good friends with the forward supply minister for the sake of forward supply for his fleet.
You can always feel that you are inferior to General Dutra just because you put in a little effort.
It is said that if General Leta is to be cautious about the forward supply of his first fleet, it will be enough for him to drink a pot.
General Letta, who was able to sit in the low position of Minister of General Front Logistics, could certainly give face to Shatta, the powerful general of the navy.
Therefore, he happily agreed:
"If you have any questions, you must go to the appointment on time.
Because General Leta was very busy with his work, there was no one waiting at the door who was ready to meet General Leta.
So Shatta did not stop chatting, but stood up and left directly.
General Letta got up and walked Shatta to the door of the office in person, without instructing the secretary at the door to send Colonel Fang off personally.
The secretary was a slightly obese middle-aged woman with a completely military image. Seeing the middle-aged woman dressed in general uniform like a Michelin tire man, Shatta nodded politely in thanks.
When walking out of the office building with his secretary, Shatta casually chatted with his secretary and said:
"Hello, secretary, do you know if I can ask you something?"
The secretary carefully looked at the young Chinese man behind him and said:
"Colonel Colonel, you know a lot of things, and I will definitely be able to answer you!"
Shatta smiled politely and said:
"Sister Secretary, you must have misunderstood. I have an appointment with Minister Leta for dinner tonight, and I may see Mrs. Leta then.
You want to give Mrs. Leta a big gift to meet you, but do you know that she has no hobbies?"
When the secretary heard that it was such a big deal, he said firmly:
"Mrs. Leta is a painter. If you don't have any specific hobbies, you are not being vague. It's really kind of you."
Hearing that, Ruan Qiu's heart moved and he said;
"Oh! Mrs. Leta is actually a painter. That's really surprising. Do you know where you can't appreciate Mrs. Leta's works?"
"You really know that. You heard that Mrs. Letta will have an exhibition at the Mahogany Gallery on Baihe Street in a week. Maybe there will be no exhibition here."
