For a moment, Lin Fan's heart dropped. After all, the steel resources needed by Daxia were already available.
But this huge joy did not go to Lin Fan's head.
Lin Fan always felt that something was wrong.
"No..." Lin Fan suddenly shook his head.
He still remembers it.
In the previous life, after the first arrival of the gods.
Although Daxia barely managed to defend itself, it also paid a heavy price because it was the place where a sea god came.
At that time.
Not only did other countries not think about resisting the next invasion of the gods, they also didn't think about supporting Daxia.
Instead, they dispatched troops eagerly, and when Daxia was struggling with internal repair work, they continued to conduct so-called military exercises near the border of Daxia!
If it weren't for the sudden visit of the next group of gods, all countries would be in crisis.
I'm afraid Daxia has been divided among them!
These guys always only have interests in their eyes.
How could he possibly sell precious steel resources to himself at the moment when the gods were about to descend?
"There must be other motives behind it." Lin Fan suddenly looked at Shang Weitian: "Do they have any requirements?"
"Requirement?" Shang Weitian thought for a while: "There is no requirement. However, there is a sentence in the reply that requires us to pay on the spot when the steel resources enter the customs at the international market price, or pay for military products of equal value.
"
"Um?"
Lin Fan frowned.
This sentence sounds normal.
but.
Why so much emphasis?
"Haha, I understand." Lin Fan suddenly laughed, "These guys really have evil intentions."
"Even if I, Daxia, can purchase such a huge piece of steel, I'm afraid it will be a loss of national strength."
"And once I, Daxia, can't afford the money, they will use it as an excuse to join forces and start a war against me, Daxia."
"Or, even if Daxia can afford it, it will fall into a period of weakness for a while, because it takes time for steel resources to be put into production."
"And they will also take the opportunity to start a war against me, Daxia!"
Lin Fan understood the other party's intention.
They just want to see if Daxia can afford this batch of steel resources!
If you want steel resources, we will give them to you.
But if you can’t eat it, don’t blame us!
This so-called help in times of need is actually a hidden murderous intention!
The value of two billion tons of steel is simply too great.
If they were replaced with military products, I'm afraid half of all the existing military products in Daxia could be replaced!
When the time comes, will Daxia soldiers without hot weapons or heavy weapons have to fight the enemy with knives?
And this is the opponent's move hidden behind this "goodwill move"!
really.
A jackal will always be a jackal.
Some things will change, but some people will never change.
"This..." After hearing Lin Fan's explanation, even Chen Yan, who only focused on scientific research, reacted: "Can we afford it?"
"It's possible... but in that case, our treasury will have no money." Shang Weitian looked complicated, "In the future, when building the Great Steel Wall, we can't let the workers work for free."
Having said this, Shang Weitian rubbed his chin: "What I think is that half of the payment will be in cash and half in the form of military products..."
"Or we can also print more currency, but that will have an impact on our country's monetary system."
"No need!" Lin Fan suddenly shook his head and said, "Military products are as important as steel in the upcoming battle with the gods."
"Daxia, you can't miss a gun!"
"Now that we are recruiting troops on a large scale, how can we still send our own weapons out when the production of military products is overloaded? How can we fight next?"
"As for printing more money."
"I'm telling you now, Daxia's money will become the only stable currency in the future and the only currency that can circulate globally!"
"Now that you are printing more money to pay for it, aren't you going to destroy yourself first?"
Shang Weitian's expression suddenly became awkward: "Then..."
"Don't worry, I have a solution." After Lin Fan said this, he leaned into Shang Weitian's ear and whispered a few words.
Shang Weitian froze on the spot, his pupils shrinking suddenly: "Is this...is this okay?"
"What's not allowed? Don't they just want Daxia to pay?" Lin Fan sneered: "Isn't that just money?"
"They thought I, Daxia, couldn't eat this batch of steel."
"They thought I was still as poor as I was back then in Daxia, with only a few households worth ten thousand yuan."
"Ah."
"Let them know now whether I, Daxia, can eat this batch of steel!"
"It's time to put the foundation I've accumulated in Daxia over the past few years to the test!"
Hearing this, Shang Weitian's eyes showed a trace of light.
Those countries always think that Daxia is still the same as before.
Even if some countries know Daxia better, they just feel that Daxia is getting stronger, but it is not strong enough yet.
But actually.
Daxia has quietly risen in recent years.
And the speed of its rise is definitely beyond their imagination!
The heritage created by 1.3 billion people is definitely beyond the imagination of those countries!
But immediately, Shang Weitian was still a little worried: "But once this move is made, Daxia's foreign capital reserves will not be enough, and those Western countries are likely to attack us financially...or else they will collectively block us commercially.
"
"Ha." Lin Fan sneered: "Let them attack us. We once paid a lot of money just to be their processing factory."
"And now."
"Even without them, we Daxia people can still live well!"
"We have a vast land and abundant resources. How will their commercial blockade affect us? Grain? Minerals? If we really want to block it, will they be willing to let us, the fathers and financiers who buy their products, be willing to do so?"
Summer.
It is no longer the world's processing factory it once was.
Instead, it will become the largest consumer country in the world!
blockade?
Oh, that's a big deal, just produce and sell it yourself.
The key is.
Lin Fan patted Shang Weitian on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It's hard to say who will survive in three months. At this time, we have no intention of engaging in internal fighting with them. By then, they will have to cry and beg.
We can’t say for sure.”
"Just go ahead and do it."
"The rest, the 1.3 billion people of Daxia, will be carried by you!"
1.3 billion people are here to bear for you!
This is Lin Fan's confidence!
Shang Weitian took a deep breath, straightened his waist, and an unprecedented power emerged in his body.
behind him.
They are 1.3 billion Daxia people of all kinds!
"Okay." Lin Fan smiled and said: "Now that the steel resources have been gathered, the national treasury has also transferred some of the steel resources to Shandong, and the state-owned engineering team has also moved to Shandong."
"Mr. Chen."
"Come take a trip to Ludong with me."
"There, I have to trouble you to personally direct the construction of the Great Steel Wall."
Mr. Chen nodded.
Lin Fan turned back to the conference room, looked at the ancient martial arts disciples who were still practicing, and clapped his hands: "Okay, let's pause for a while and go to the car to practice again."
"Now, everyone, go downstairs immediately."
Wang Hu, who had withdrawn from the cultivation state, stretched and felt the power in his body while wondering: "Commander, what are we going to do?"
Lin Fan clicked on the map behind him: "Let's go to the eastern coast!"
“There, we need to build the Great Steel Wall!”
"Ah?" Wang Hu was even more confused: "Things like construction... are the work of the construction team, what does it have to do with us?"
"Haha." Lin Fan laughed.
If I remember correctly, during this unprecedented construction project, some things sleeping underground will also wake up.
"You kid, eat more good food lately, but you're going to have a tough battle next." Lin Fan nodded at Wang Hu.
