Thanks, I can’t remember what to do, A Xian Ge, There is a Sword in the Chest, Gu Qinfei, four friends for their rewards, Yu Tou strives to write more exciting stories, thank you all friends for your support
At noon the next day, Qin Zhiyuan took Huang Bohan and Huang Jinsheng to have lunch with old Renault.
Lunch is scheduled at Dafuwei Hotel.
Thanks to old Renault, Qin Zhiyuan is now qualified to order food. If he wants to treat someone to dinner, just make a phone call.
Before the wine and food had passed, Qin Zhiyuan turned the topic back to buying weapons.
Louis, these two want to buy some weapons, do you have any extra ones? Qin Zhiyuan is direct.
Louis Renault is responsible for the supply of weapons to the French army, and he may not be able to produce a large number of weapons and ammunition at any time. Qin Zhiyuan still needs to make sure.
It depends on who uses it. If you use it, there must be one. Old Renault is very considerate.
I almost use it. Qin Zhiyuan doesn't lay ambushes.
Now this dish is Qin Zhiyuan’s favorite caviar. The top-grade white sturgeon caviar imported from Switzerland has uniform particles and a first-class taste. Take a spoonful and put it in your mouth, use your tongue to gently break the roes one by one, and enjoy
The feeling of the unparalleled deliciousness exploding on the tip of the tongue is truly an excellent experience.
Then you can have as much as you want. Old Renault simply said, and then looked at Qin Zhiyuan's way of eating and felt heartbroken: You are really extravagant, caviar is not eaten that way.
Old Renault spread the caviar evenly on the toast and then ate it slowly, which looked much more elegant than Qin Zhiyuan's way.
I do. Qin Zhiyuan doesn't care about other people's opinions, as long as he enjoys the meal, he spends money on this meal anyway.
Qin Zhiyuan and Lao Renault enjoyed their meal, but Huang Bohan and Huang Jinsheng were a little confused.
We need 50,000 rifles, with 100 rounds of ammunition for each gun, and a thousand pistols, with 50 rounds of ammunition for each gun. And artillery, we want to buy enough artillery to equip a regiment. Huang Bohan is a businessman after all, and I don’t quite understand.
What needs to be purchased.
This is the list you made. Old Renault looked at Qin Zhiyuan with a somewhat mocking look.
No, they don't quite understand. You just need to match the weapons according to the size of a division. I only have one request. The ratio of machine gun equipment should be increased, preferably at a ratio of ten to one. Qin Zhiyuan has high requirements and attaches great importance to machine guns.
quantity.
Old Renault didn't worry about it. His factory could produce close to 80,000 guns of various types every day, which was not a troublesome quantity.
How about two months? Qin Zhiyuan leaves enough time.
That's no problem. Old Renault agreed wholeheartedly.
This, this is enough. Huang Bohan couldn't believe it.
Yes, Qin Zhiyuan downplayed it.
Really, really Huang Bohan picked up the napkin and wiped his eyes subconsciously.
Huang Bohan's heart was like a turbulent sea. Thinking about the difficulties they had to ask his grandfather to sue his grandmother when buying weapons, and comparing Qin Zhiyuan and old Renault's business talk like a casual chat, Huang Bohan completely understood that he could not find the temple with a pig's head.
meaning.
By the way, I have a request. Can you get me German-style equipment? Qin Zhiyuan considered the uniformity of logistics.
Why should the German model have good performance? Our Lebel has been improved and now performs very well. The old Renault is dissatisfied.
At the beginning of World War I, the Lebel rifles equipped by the French troops had three-round magazines, while the German 98a had a five-round magazine and the British Enfield had a ten-round magazine. France has always considered itself an army.
A big country could not tolerate the army's main battle equipment lagging behind that of Britain and Germany, so it developed the m1916 during the war and also used a five-round magazine, which could be regarded as keeping up with the mainstream.
Lebel is indeed good, but my soldiers are accustomed to using German weapons and equipment, and in my country, German weapons and equipment are the mainstream, so I have to consider logistics. Qin Zhiyuan explained the reason, but the old Renault didn't think so, so
I asked him jokingly: Why are you hesitating? Do you still have to pay patent fees to produce German rifles?
With the implementation of the patent law, before World War I, if Renault's factory wanted to produce Mauser rifles, it would indeed have to pay a certain fee to the Mauser factory and obtain a license from the Mauser factory in order to produce weapons in the licensed quantity.
But that was before the war, and now both sides are jealous. Qin Zhiyuan doesn't think old Renault will stick to the old rules.
Are you kidding me about patent fees? I won't give them a penny. Old Renault is really shameless.
That's okay. Qin Zhiyuan got the answer he wanted.
Okay, okay, I’ll give you German weapons and equipment, and waive your patent fees. Old Renault was only joking.
Thank you. Qin Zhiyuan, thank you sincerely, and then raise your glass: for victory
for victory
for victory
Old Renault and Huang Bohan and Huang Jinsheng both toasted.
Now, we can talk about the tank problem. Before that, when can I get the opportunity to talk to Mr. Foch? Old Reno lost no time.
Tomorrow, or tonight, anytime, it depends on your schedule. Qin Zhiyuan is sure, even if his relationship with Julie is not mentioned, Qin Zhiyuan is now one of Foch's closest people and has the qualification to visit Foch at any time.
Then tonight. Old Reno can't wait.
Qin Zhiyuan was curious about what was going on and why he was so anxious.
This has nothing to do with you, you are just a soldier, and soldiers are not supposed to have thoughts. Old Renault is tight-lipped.
Your point of view is ridiculous. I am a soldier. Could it be that Ferdinand and Qin Zhiyuan speak freely?
Of course not. Do you think Ferdinand is still a pure soldier? Then you are too behind the times. Old Renaud is thinking ahead.
He is not a soldier but Qin Zhiyuan concentrates on eating foie gras, which is another delicious dish.
Ferdinand is now a politician, not only Ferdinand, but also Nivelle, Pétain, and Joffre. They are all politicians. As long as you step into the whirlpool of politics, you will never be able to escape. The old Renault said something amazing.
It's so terrible that Qin Zhiyuan is so perfunctory.
Regarding the difference between soldiers and politicians, Qin Zhiyuan has a far deeper understanding of this point than Old Renault, with Qin Zhiyuan's vision and knowledge surpassing that of Old Renault for hundreds of years. What Qin Zhiyuan says now is just pretending to be a pig. As for whether he can eat it
Tiger, that's for the future.
So, if possible, I hope you are a pure soldier. But this is wishful thinking. Sooner or later you will become a politician, maybe even more thorough than Ferdinand and the others. Old Renault knows this well.
Maybe, I will try my best to postpone the arrival of that day. If that day really comes, I will also remember my friendship with you. Qin Zhiyuan promised.
Of course, I will also remember your friendship. Old Renault returned the favor.
So, let's have a drink, and Huang Bohan wastes no time for friendship.
Come
cheers
for friendship
Several people raised their glasses one after another.
No one can tell what the future will bring, but at this moment, at the Dafuwei Restaurant, Qin Zhiyuan and Lao Renault have a good relationship.
