"Sir, what conditions do you intend to pay?"
Wan Shang looked at it for a long time, put the musket back into the wooden box, looked at Richard and said in a deep voice.
Richard was stunned, frowned and asked, "What do you mean?"
Wan Shang and Fang Dalong's expressions became even more serious: "Sir, Brother Fang and I just exchanged views."
"This musket was designed by Long Yan's chief assistant, Liu Zheng himself. The craftsmanship is extremely complicated and the cost is high, and not many have been produced."
"Moreover, the bullet design is even more complicated. A lot of money has been invested in researching the bullet Long Yan. This kind of thing can be said to be the top secret among Long Yan's top secrets."
"If we in France want to buy..." Wan Shang fell into deep thought.
Fang Dalong also remained silent.
Seeing the solemn expressions of the two people, Richard's heart skipped a beat. Hearing what the two said, he knew it was not that simple.
Richard asked tentatively: "Then you can't buy it."
The air was silent for a few seconds.
Everyone looked at Wan Shang and Fang Dalong nervously.
This is very bad news for them.
If the Britons are trading with Long Yan, then they have no way to stop them.
If the British spend money to buy this kind of thing, if it is really used in war, the British only need to stand there and shoot from a long distance.
It would be difficult for any army to come close to the British army.
By then Britain will be able to win easily.
"No, it's just that the two of us can't make the 'Revolver'. It's also a very rare thing in Longyan because it's difficult to make."
"The yield is less than 10 percent."
"But as for bullets, the problem is not that big. Although the bullets are complex and expensive to make, according to what the two of us know, there are not many of these bullets in Longyan City."
Upon hearing this answer, Richard's eyes lit up.
"If you have it, it's easy to talk about it. If you have it, it's easy to talk about it."
Everyone also breathed a sigh of relief.
"How much are these bullets? As many as you have!" Richard said boldly with a wave of his hand.
"Sir, seriously?"
When Richard heard this, he immediately shuddered and recalled the price of the previous Dragon Flame Cannonballs. Ten Dragon Flame Cannonballs cost him a full one hundred gold coins.
This is simply a money grab.
"Ahem, if the two of them can make Long Yan's side a little bit cheaper, that would be the best." Richard said without losing embarrassment.
Wan Shang smiled and said, "Sir, what are you talking about? Don't worry when doing business with Long Yan. You will never be deceived."
"The two of us will definitely do our best for France!"
Richard chuckled.
After the two of them talked like this last time, they told him that one Long Yan cannon shell cost ten gold coins, which made him feel pain for a long time.
"How much does it cost to get this bullet?"
Richard raised another finger and nodded without saying a word.
Richard saw it was a finger again, and his heart tightened, thinking that it was just a bullet, and it shouldn't be that expensive.
"One copper coin per shot?" Richard asked tentatively.
Wan Shang shook his head and shook his fingers.
"A silver coin?"
Wan Shang shook his head again and shook his fingers again.
At this time, Richard was completely panicked. He didn't dare to guess anymore. He just shrank his head and asked, "Mr. Wan, you'd better just tell me. I can resist."
"One silver coin is just the cost price." Wan Shang said calmly.
Richard took a breath: "How much is the selling price?"
"Ten silver coins for one bullet, no bargaining." Wan Shang said expressionlessly.
Richard's face suddenly changed, and regardless of the faces of many French senior officials, his voice suddenly rose several steps higher and said: "You are crazy about money!"
"One bullet costs ten silver coins, why doesn't Long Yan shoot?"
Upon hearing this, Wan Shang and Fang Dalong's expressions did not change at all.
There is no real way to steal money and cheat money.
The two people immediately said impassionedly: "Sir, according to our current situation, we can still buy ten silver coins for one bullet."
"You also know how special this thing is. Fang Dalong risked a narrow escape last time to come back."
"This price is already a conservative estimate."
Everyone looked at Richard suspiciously.
They had never seen Richard look like this before.
The price of a bullet is only ten silver coins, which scares you, the leader of France in America.
Everyone felt a little contemptuous.
Richard had explained before that although the price of one bullet was very expensive, it was still acceptable to them.
After all, if they lose to the British, the loss will be much greater than this.
Feeling the gazes from around him, Richard's face froze and he secretly screamed that he had just lost control.
"Ahem."
He cleared his throat, pretended to be nonchalant, looked at Wan Shang and Fang Dalong again, and said calmly: "What I mean is that the price of ten silver coin bullets is not unaffordable."
He stared at Wan Shang and Fang Dalong and said, "It's just that I also have a condition."
Wan Shang and Fang Dalong looked at Richard: "Sir, please speak directly."
"It's very simple, there are no restrictions on the purchase of bullets."
The expressions of Wan Shang and Fang Dalong suddenly fell silent. In fact, the manufacturing price of bullets is very low, but the manufacturing process is complicated. Long Yan has researched on the manufacturing process of this kind of bullet.
It took a long time to mature.
The manufacturing cost of one bullet does not even cost a copper plate.
As for why it was sold to Britain and France for such a high price.
That's because they feel that people who can spend one silver coin to buy bullets don't care about paying nine more silver coins.
Adhering to this business philosophy, it would be unjust to not cheat France and Britain.
But if there is an unlimited supply.
What Qing Yangshuo means is that France and Britain cannot be made too powerful, and there must be restrictions.
Otherwise, it will be difficult to control.
When they learned that France had seized the revolver, Qing Yangshuo told them that France could get up to fifteen thousand rounds of ammunition.
Wan Shang and Fang Dalong hesitated for a long time before saying, "General, you really gave us a difficult problem."
"You know, we just have channels. It's not certain how much we can negotiate now."
Richard laughed and said indifferently: "Well, as long as you negotiate for 10,000 rounds of bullets this time, you will take credit."
Wan Shang and Fang Dalong frowned.
"If you can't reach an agreement, according to French regulations, if the task is not completed, you will bear the cost yourself."
Wan Shang and Fang Dalong frowned and sighed, and said, "Let's give it a try."
Richard smiled. In his opinion, Longyan City was such a precious ammunition.
The two of them would never be able to get so much.
