Chapter 386 You are the one who jokes first
Habul originally thought that Li Changfeng was difficult to speak. After all, it was Li Changfeng who led his army to fight against the barbarian army. He had seen countless wounded people and countless graves.
Who had expected that he would agree so happily?
Hapur was worried that Li Changfeng would play with him, so he tentatively said: "We want ten thousand pounds of fine salt!"
Li Changfeng smiled: "As much salt as you want."
Hapur was overjoyed: "Tea leaves are ten thousand pounds!"
"Can."
"Ten thousand penicillin!"
"no problem."
"Bicycles...well...five thousand!"
“The inventory is not that much, it takes a little time. Can you wait?”
"Of course I can wait, I still want a motorcycle, well, one thousand."
"There is not that much motorcycle inventory, and it will take a little time. You may have to wait."
"Yes! Yes!"
Originally, when he heard Li Changfeng agreeing to sell fine salt, tea, bicycles, etc., Emperor Gan Wu’s expression has not changed much, and these things will not make the barbarians stronger.
When he heard Li Changfeng promised to sell a thousand motorcycles to the barbarians, his expression couldn't help but look a little ugly.
You know, the military has only purchased a total of 1,000 motorcycles, and Li Changfeng actually agreed to give the barbarians one thousand vehicles. Isn’t this just encouraging the majesty of the barbarian army?
Moreover, if the barbarians engage in research and development based on the motorcycle they bought and build their own motorcycles, wouldn’t it threaten to do a big move in the future?
In his opinion, things like this should be safe to do so.
However, out of trust in Li Changfeng, Emperor Gan Wu thought for a while without refuting, and quietly observed the two of them.
Hapur also knew how important motorcycles were to be big. He thought he had to waste some verbal words to buy them, but he never thought it would be so smooth and he was even more happy.
He hurriedly continued: "We want a thousand muskets!"
Li Changfeng nodded: "No problem."
Emperor Gan Wu was shocked, how dare you sell this thing?
He almost couldn't help but stand up and refuse, but thinking that Li Changfeng could not realize this, he forced himself to endure it.
Hapur looked surprised: "We want a hundred artillery!"
Li Changfeng still smiled: "No problem!"
"Grenade...5,000!"
"No problem either!"
At this time, Emperor Gan Wu finally saw the clue.
Li Changfeng sold bicycles and motorcycles in front, and at least he said that there was not so much stock to wait.
Now, I won’t mention this, I just agree.
Emperor Gan Wu knew that Li Changfeng had stopped producing muskets and cannons because the Dagan military purchased enough, and now he only produced ammunition.
This is clearly playing with Hapur.
Thinking of this, Emperor Gan Wu couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
Hapur also realized that things seemed to be going too smoothly, and asked in surprise: "When will you deliver these things like muskets, cannons and grenades?" Li Changfeng looked serious and thought: "It probably took about ten years."
Hapur was stunned for a moment and laughed dryly, "Your Highness, how can you make a joke about this kind of thing?"
Li Changfeng put away his smile and said coldly: "You were the ones who joked first. He actually wanted to buy my big muskets, cannons and grenades. Do you think this is possible?"
Li Changfeng has always been very strict and cautious in the control of thermal weapons.
If this thing is taken out casually, who can guarantee that it will not fall into the enemy's hands and point the gun at him?
Moreover, when he was expeditioning in the south, he saw too many soldiers killed by the barbarians, and the seeds of hatred had long been planted in his heart. How could he sell such a killing weapon to them?
At this time, Hapur realized that Li Changfeng was playing tricks on him. He was already angry in his heart. The smile on his face could not be maintained and became ugly.
However, he didn't dare to have an attack here with his courage, so he could only endure it.
He had a way to make Li Changfeng compromise, but it was not suitable to say it in this place, so he laughed dryly: "That's the matter of selling motorcycles... Your Highness, aren't you kidding?"
Li Changfeng nodded: "No, but the price is a bit high. One thousand vehicles are still the lowest-equipped. Can it be accepted?"
Hapur had long inquired about the price of motorcycles sold by Li Changfeng. The minimum price was 700 taels, and the price of 1,000 taels was indeed a bit high, but considering the relationship between Dakang and the barbarians, he still endured it.
“Acceptable.”
He originally wanted to buy the military version, but it seemed impossible based on the current situation. He decided to talk to Li Changfeng in private when Emperor Wu was away.
So he did not talk about the price of other materials, and said goodbye to Emperor Gan Wu: "Your Majesty, the foreign minister needs to go back and collect the total amount of refined salt, tea, and penicillin. After that, we will go to the Ninth Prince to discuss in detail, please allow your Majesty to allow it."
Emperor Gan Wu could not find a reason to refuse and nodded, "Yes."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Hapur bowed respectfully and bowed to Li Changfeng again: "The foreign minister will pay homage to you, Your Highness, soon."
"knew."
After Habul retreated, Emperor Gan Wu asked, "Changfeng, why do you want to sell your motorcycle to them?"
Li Changfeng said strangely: "Why not sell it to them?"
Emperor Gan Wu expressed his worries with a somewhat ugly expression. Li Changfeng burst into laughter after hearing this.
"Father, our motorcycles are sold publicly. Even if you order not to sell them to the barbarians, won't they buy them at a high price from others?"
"Of course they can, but they can't buy that much, and even if they are equipped with an army, they can't form combat power."
"Can they develop combat power by selling it to them?" Li Changfeng looked unfathomable.
Emperor Gan Wu was a little angry: "What kind of medicine is sold in the gourd? Tell me quickly, don't keep it in your mouth!"
Li Changfeng smiled slightly: "Father, don't forget that gasoline is in our hands."
Emperor Gan Wu was slightly stunned, then suddenly realized, and laughed and said, "How come I forgot this guy!"
Motorcycles without gasoline are just a pile of scrap iron. They control gasoline. Whether to sell or not, whether to sell more or less, is not the final decision for the barbarians.
This is equivalent to pinching their lifeline.
Emperor Gan Wu laughed for a while, then thought of another thing, and his expression became worried again: "But what should they do if they have a motorcycle to imitate it?"
Li Changfeng said helplessly: "It is inevitable that motorcycles will be bought for public sale and imitation, but this is not so simple that it can be made. When they imitate it, I will have a better motorcycle, the army and even You may have used a car, do you need to worry?”
Now Emperor Gan Wu was completely relieved and laughed: "It's better for a boy to have a trick. It's right to ask you to come here. The price of motorcycles must be sold at a higher price. I'll beat them up!"
"That's certain."
Li Changfeng nodded and smiled, "There are a large number of unqualified engines in the factory that have not been rebuilt yet, and they are just used to build motorcycles for them."
