The arms dealer's day was actually very busy. After finding out why his woman was fighting in school, Tang Mo had to rush to turn some of his drawings into cash.
This is a very magical process. He needs to outline the drawings in his mind and then let professionals correct them to the extent he needs.
There are many professional draftsmen in the Datang Group, and these people are all masters brought out by Tang Mo himself. Matthews also did similar work for a period of time before.
Tang Mo is currently cooperating with the dwarves to provide a brand new weapon system for the dwarves' ice kingdom.
This is a request from the dwarves. They hope to have weapons that are different from other countries. They believe that this can reflect the uniqueness of the Ice Kingdom.
Then, Tang Mo felt that exchanging a lot of blueprints for a lot of gold mines seemed a bit too "fooling" his big customers, so he decided to produce a few samples for the dwarves to take a look at first.
By the time this batch of samples was produced, the news of the victory in the Battle of Dorne had been confirmed, and the whole of Burnas was singing and dancing.
At the shooting range, Tang Mo grabbed a brand new rifle that had never been mass-produced in this world and showed it to the dwarf envoy.
He pulled the bolt, causing the gun to make a crisp clicking sound. The whole action was done in one go, making it look pleasing to the eye.
After completing a series of actions, he drew a standard aiming posture and introduced: "This is the brand new K4 rifle I built for the Ice Kingdom. It has different performance than the K3 rifle currently used by the Datang Group.
By comparison, it is the most advanced bolt-action rifle in the world."
"It uses another type of ammunition, with a caliber of 7.62 mm. It uses more advanced technology, has very good ballistics, and is powerful enough..." After finishing speaking, he showed the dwarf envoy how to load this weapon and the whole process.
It's also very smooth.
Then, he handed the rifle to the dwarf envoy and asked him to operate it once. After several reminders from Tang Mo, the dwarf envoy completed the loading action unskillfully.
He put down the rifle in his hand and was very satisfied with the rifle that used metal fixed ammunition. He praised it: "It's wonderful! This weapon is really good."
To be honest, most of the Ice Kingdom's troops are still equipped with Cyric flintlocks, and this weapon has not had time to be replaced on a large scale.
Today, the Ice Kingdom has only a small number of its main troops, and they use needle guns purchased from the Datang Group.
The needle gun is obviously outdated now, because the Beiling Regiment supported by the Datang Group showed a new rifle weapon on the battlefield, a new type of rifle that uses metal fixed-loading ammunition.
Now everyone is very interested in this kind of rifle, and the Cyric Consortium has also developed its own similar weapon after acquiring a weapons production workshop from the East.
Under such a background, it is not surprising that the dwarves of the Ice Kingdom want to possess similar weapons - after all, they paid for it with gold mines, oil fields, and a port.
Tang Mo took the dwarf envoy to the open space next to him and introduced the new artillery to the bearded dwarf: "In addition, I have prepared a brand new 122mm caliber howitzer for you. This artillery is also more powerful.
Advanced, with more charges, longer range, and more powerful firepower."
This kind of artillery used by Tang Mo was not a new technology. It was not the famous 122 mm caliber Soviet artillery in World War II, but a Russian cannon that was finalized and produced in 1909.
However, even this kind of unadvanced cannon is still the best cannon that the dwarves can buy in this world.
Seeing the Datang Group's security force soldiers demonstrating the entire firing process and firing a blank bomb, the dwarf envoy fell in love with this seemingly powerful weapon.
He had already begun to imagine the scene of this weapon firing violently on the northern battlefield and defeating the enemy.
So, he said excitedly: "You are really an efficient designer. We really didn't expect that in just a few days, you could design so many unique weapons and equipment for us."
"Actually, that's not all... I have improved the production line, which allows you to produce weapons and equipment faster, and also allows you to produce supporting ammunition faster." Tang Mo continued, letting his customers feel that they have spent a lot of money on it.
It's all worth the money spent.
"Really... thank you so much." Sure enough, the dwarf was very pleased with this kind of meticulous and thoughtful service.
Tang Mo suddenly spoke to the dwarf envoy: "By the way, if you are willing to give your rifle a name instead of using our K series number, I have a good suggestion."
"Oh?" The dwarf envoy was stunned. He looked at Tang Mo and waited for Tang Mo to finish speaking.
Then, he heard Tang Mo continue to talk about the "name" of this rifle: "I personally call this rifle Mosin Nagant, what do you think? Doesn't it sound good?"
That's right, the rifle he gave the dwarves was actually a Mosin-Nagant rifle. He just took out the blueprint of this weapon and then realized it.
The dwarf, who was completely unaware that he had been tricked, seriously thought about the name of the rifle: "Mosin Nagant... is a bit difficult to pronounce, but I think you have the right to name this brand new weapon."
"Similarly, my people have copied the drawings, including steam engines, various machine tools and equipment for the production of steam engines, including electric light technology, generator technology, telegraph technology, railway production supporting facilities..." I saw the other party muttering to Mosin repeatedly.
Tang Mo was a little satisfied with the name Nagant.
His sudden bad taste was actually innocuous in the whole cooperation. So he continued: "Basically, the technology and drawings that Datang Group has now are all here. Two whole ships, weighing several tons..."
There is no way, there are just a lot of blueprints for guns, and a thick pile for steam engines, plus related equipment, machine tools... The blueprints prepared by Datang Group for this transaction can fill several piles.
A large box with hundreds of mouths.
"Then, sir... our sincerity is also here." The dwarf envoy took out a stack of contracts from his arms, pressed them on the table, and pushed them to Tang Mo.
Harry opened these deeds with his hands and found that the top ones were five ownership deeds of gold mines, including the miner slaves inside, nearby land certificates, and some orders signed by the king himself, ensuring that Tang Mo could stay in the Ice Kingdom.
Build your own railways, build roads, legally purchase land, etc. within the territory.
This is basically a modern version of an "unequal" treaty, even selling part of its sovereignty.
But because Tang Mo gave too much, the top management of the Ice Kingdom did not care about the issue of sovereignty. It seems that they have indeed lost some sovereignty in some areas, but what they will gain is an unprecedented new and vast territory.
territory.
"By the way, all countries and all armies will shout slogans when they launch an attack... Everyone shouts long live, isn't it boring?" Tang Mo took the contracts from Harry's hand casually.
After flipping through the pages, he asked another question that had nothing to do with trading.
"Sir, what do you...mean?" The dwarf envoy didn't know why Tang Mo asked this, so he asked in confusion.
"I mean, I think that a unique charge slogan that is different from other countries and has a more emotional feel will improve some morale and make his army more imposing?" Tang Mo put down the contract and
Very satisfied with the sincerity of the dwarf.
"Listen, it sounds...that's right." The dwarf nodded slightly and agreed with Tang Mo's words.
"So, I can give you an interesting slogan for free. What do you think...?" Tang Mo started playing pranks again.
"Although I can't make the decision, I do feel your kindness. So, what is the new slogan you mentioned?" The dwarf envoy did not agree immediately.
"Ula! How about this?" Tang Mo clenched his fists and imitated a majestic shout, performing a little show.
"Ula? Ula! Ula!... I have to say, you are really an expert in war! I just shouted a few words and felt that this slogan was very good... What does it... mean?" The dwarf
The special envoy was immediately attracted by this slightly strange slogan. After trying it a few times, he looked at Tang Mo and asked.
"Representing the determination of the Ice-Cold Kingdom, it is harder than ice and colder than snow..." Tang Mo explained nonsensically.
After hearing Tang Mo's nonsense, the dwarf envoy had no idea that this slogan came from the world before Tang Mo traveled through.
He was very interested in this kind of slogan. He repeated it several times and nodded: "Ula... very good, really good. I will bring this slogan back to the Ice Kingdom, if our king agrees."
If you use it, we will pay an extra fee for it.”
"No, this...is given for free!" Tang Mo satisfied his bad taste and waved his hand generously.
The dwarf felt inexplicably happy and excited that he could get free things from Tang Mo: "You are really very generous! Sir."
Tang Mo turned around, faced the dwarf envoy and said solemnly: "The dwarf will be the strategic partner of Datang Group in the northern region! The only partner!"
The dwarf envoy also solemnly assured Tang Mo: "Datang Group will also be the most important partner of the Ice Kingdom, or the future Ice Empire..."
"Happy cooperation!" Tang Mo once again extended his palm.
"Happy cooperation!" The dwarf also extended his hand and shook it with Tang Mo.
