Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Jingde and other generals listened with their ears pricked up.
They also want to know how much it will cost.
At the same time, they all have a psychological price in their hearts, that is, the price will not be low.
As for the one that costs one thousand taels as a base.
Li Min didn't even think about it and said directly: "A rifle is three hundred taels per shot, a machine gun is five hundred taels per shot, bullets are not counted, and each bullet is one tael!"
As soon as this was said, everyone guessed wrong.
It turns out it’s not expensive at all.
But, think about it carefully.
Everyone thinks Li Min is really good at business.
As far as guns are concerned, they are not expensive.
But as for the bullets, they are a bit expensive.
This is really a war, and the bullets are kept coming for free.
Take an army of 100,000 people as an example. If each man has one gun, then it will cost 100,000. On average, each gun will cost 400 taels, so it will cost 400 million taels.
As for bullets, wouldn’t it take a hundred people to fight a war?
And I'm afraid it's not enough.
Even if it's a hundred people, 100,000 people would need 10 million bullets.
Just for a war, an army of 100,000 people would need 10 million taels of bullets. If there were more people, wouldn't that mean more?
And before the fight, the soldiers need to be trained to get them used to the power of the rifle. Doesn’t that mean that some of the bullets have to be used up?
And also need to equip grenades.
If you do the math, you really can't afford to fight.
Dai Zhou looked at Li Shimin.
Li Shimin glanced at him.
I mean I want it to be cheaper.
If it is so expensive, all the money from the national treasury can be used to buy weapons. There is no need to do anything else.
It has to be lowered a little anyway.
So, Dai Zhou said: "Can it be cheaper? After all, we want a lot this time!"
Li Min was unhappy.
This depends on financial resources. If you don't have money, you can buy less. It is also possible to train an army and equip it individually.
However, Li Shimin didn't think so. He was probably thinking that since everything was ordered, it would be done in one step. Otherwise, it would be meaningless.
"These weapons of mine are the most advanced. You don't need them, but don't bargain! Bargaining will only cause them to drop in price. I don't want my products to drop in price!"
Saying this, Dai Zhou's mouth was immediately blocked.
Li Shimin glanced at Cheng Yaojin and others again.
It means that they should also talk to Li Min and ask him to lower the price or something.
Cheng Yaojin and others understood.
First, Cheng Yaojin said: "Sixth Prince, you see we didn't bargain with you for the grenades just now. Do you think the rifles and machine guns can be cheaper this time?"
Even if they bargain, it's useless.
Because it is impossible for Li Min to let go. You don’t want these things.
Don't pull it down.
Yuchi Jingde then said: "Yes, we need a lot, can it be cheaper?"
This may have some effect on others, but for Li Min, it has no effect at all.
Because he doesn't have to worry about selling.
And seeing how Li Shimin likes it so much, the price cannot be lowered.
Li Shimin's love has been engraved on his face.
"I said, you don't need it, but please don't negotiate the price. Talking about money will hurt your feelings! Anyway, I haven't mass-produced it yet. If you don't want it sincerely, I can directly suppress the project. Understand?"
Li Min said this.
In fact, he has produced many of them.
But you can't say that, otherwise Li Shimin will have random thoughts again.
In the end, Empress Changsun had to come forward.
She said: "Ming'er, we are here with sincerity this time. Do you think...how much is the discount?"
Queen Changsun has already spoken, so you have to give her some face, otherwise it will really be unjustifiable.
So, Li Min said: "Auntie has said so, so if I don't give you a little benefit, it would be a bit unjustifiable."
Li Min thought for a while, and then said: "Let's do this, give one for every ten! Let's not talk about the others. How about it?"
In fact, he could not give up a single point, but since Empress Changsun has spoken, let's lower it appropriately.
I gave him a 10% discount.
This is quite a face-saving gesture.
Empress Changsun glanced at Li Shimin, who seemed not satisfied yet.
He kept making glances there.
Empress Changsun shrugged her shoulders and said there was nothing she could do.
But Li Shimin did not give up at all and looked at other ministers.
But no one responded to him.
Because, since Li Min has already given in, there is no possibility of making any more concessions.
This is their bottom line since everyone started doing business with Shengtang Group.
Li Min didn't give Li Shimin too many possibilities.
He finally said: "If it is confirmed, just sign it directly, otherwise this offer will be canceled tomorrow!"
After finishing speaking, he said to Dai Zhou: "Dai Zhou, what do you think?"
"I……"
Now Dai Zhou is in trouble.
Did he say yes or no?
Li Shimin is watching on the left, and Li Min is watching on the right.
Moreover, Li Min also said that today is uncertain and will be canceled tomorrow.
Finally, he looked at Queen Changsun.
I hope Queen Changsun can give him some advice.
Empress Changsun was also very depressed after being forced by Li Shimin.
In the end, she had no choice but to agree on behalf of Li Shimin: "Okay, let's do this, Dai Zhou, go and draw up the contract and sign it today!"
"Yes!" Dai Zhou breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally something happened.
And Li Min sold two more expired weapons.
If these weapons are not released, they may rot in the warehouse.
Fortunately, Li Shimin asked for it.
And the price paid is not low either.
"Jushan!"
"yes!"
"Let's go to the next place!"
Li Min finally said.
At this time, everyone became energetic again.
Based on what just happened, it can be seen that this thing is progressing piece by piece, and its power is constantly increasing.
The third weapon must not be too bad.
This is what everyone is thinking.
Cheng Yaojin first asked: "Sixth Prince, what is the third weapon? Can you tell me first?"
Yuchi Jingde then said: "Yes, we want to know, what is the third thing? Is it something larger than a grenade or a rifle?"
Li Shimin also wanted to know, but he did not have the right to express what he thought.
Empress Changsun, on the other hand, seemed particularly calm.
Li Min looked at everyone and said: "You will know in a moment. If I say it now, it will be meaningless, but I can tell you that this next thing can allow the Tang army to move forward forever and fight without a fight.
Unbeatable!"
What he said directly ignited everyone's enthusiasm.
At the same time, I kept guessing about what the next thing would be like.
But people's brains are limited, and they can't think of anything more powerful than a rifle or a grenade.
As a last resort, he had no choice but to follow Li Min to another room.
