Chapter 1157 Ordering Gun Barrels

On this day, Lin Mo and Xu Guyu had been negotiating until late at night. What was the effect of the contact? I can only say that it was okay. There are still many problems. All parties need to go back to check out the bottom, make preparations, and conduct another round of negotiations.

In the next few days, Lin Mo and Xu Guyu mainly traveled between the office, the armory, and Colonel Qi. They only had two more contacts with Scott.

The office mainly reports to Boss Dai for instructions and communicates with the telecommunications room. The latter is to solve the communication problem on the ship. The advantage is that the director has a technical background. Whether it is feasible or not, he can give the answer himself. He ran away.

After one visit, the matter was settled.

In addition, during this trip, I also got good news. The communication tool that Lin Mo mentioned to the other party before has some ideas now. After a while, samples should be available for them to try out.

As for the mutual exchange between Colonel Qi and the repair shop, they naturally communicated about some details or requirements on weapons. What was finalized before was only the general framework.

However, since there are not even samples, the performance is not involved much. The main negotiation is the approximate cost and selling price. That is to say, the money must be discussed first. Colonel Qi needs to report the approximate expenses in advance.

After giving it a few days, I contacted the Lin family and the Lu family again and made some preparations. This time, the communication was much smoother, and the issues left before were quickly settled.

Of course, it also took a lot of time. One involved a lot of problems, and the other brought many people involved in technology and research. They caught Lin Mo and asked a lot of questions, especially from the Lin family.

However, most of them did not know Lin Mo's identity. After all, there were not many people engaged in technology or research in the Lin family's previous industry. Moreover, Lin Mo ran out very early and deliberately blocked it later. Very few people knew about the situation.

.

At the end of the negotiation, these people were asked to sign a confidentiality agreement. Of course, it was not about Lin Mo's identity, but the request to keep the whole matter confidential.

Things here are basically settled, and I went to the repair shop again. Based on the situation here, I worked out some progress issues with Wu Liangdong, and then took a more detailed list to confirm the details with Scott.

On Scott's side, what they discussed before was only a preliminary agreement on the situation, which was almost equivalent to informing him of the situation and asking him to negotiate and confirm.

Now, only when you start to confirm the order batch, delivery time and other issues, can you really enter the buying and selling process. Of course, there is also the payment of deposit.

"Lao Si, can you please help us find someone to help us produce a batch of finished gun barrels?" After settling the matter, Lin Mo spoke.

"Gun barrel?" Scott raised his eyebrows slightly and asked: "Gun barrel, you should be able to produce it yourself now, right? Do you still need my help?"

Lin Mo nodded and explained: "It can be made if it can be made, but the technology is still relatively weak, and what is needed this time is a new model, which requires higher and more new barrels.

They need time to research and improve skills, etc., but due to time constraints, the research on guns is also carried out simultaneously. We are worried that we will not be able to keep up with the progress in this aspect, or even slow down the progress.

Therefore, I am thinking of ordering a batch of ready-made gun barrels from you first for initial research and early production. Later, when the technology matures, I will switch to self-produced ones. Of course, if you can provide the technical details of the process,

It’s best to use it as a reference.”

Of course, there is one thing that Lin Mo did not say clearly. It is true that the barrels of firearms such as pistols and shotguns can be made by oneself. Not to mention how excellent they are, but at least they meet the standards.

The rifle barrel can barely be made at the moment, but what is needed this time is a light and heavy machine gun, and there are also parts that are not ordinary light and heavy machine guns. It may not be possible to make it for a while. After all, the barrel is one of the most critical parts of a gun.

Of course, you can also learn to use mortars, but one shot affects the whole body. The gun is a far more sophisticated system than the mortar. It is very troublesome to change it back in the future. Even changing it in the past requires a lot of effort to adapt.

effort.

Therefore, when it comes to the core components of the gun, Lin Mo wants the repair shop to be in place in one step, so that the performance can reach the standard at once. Later, at most, accessories and the like can be changed to make the core parts universal.

"Large batches are not possible, but for small batches, I can find some small military factories to help you think of a way. I can't guarantee the quality, but it won't be too bad. They don't have the strength, and you can also find other factories to produce in their name.

"

Scott thought about it and said, of course, money! There must be enough money. This operation cannot be done easily, especially after looking at Lin Mo's list.

"The quantity is a bit large, and the categories are a bit complicated. You may have to find a few more companies to get it. You may need more money. I can think of ways to deal with the technology, but first let's talk about it. There is a high probability that I will only be able to get it.

Ordinary stuff.”

"...No problem..." Lin Mo nodded. Ordinary goods were enough for them. Lin Mo then placed a batch of miscellaneous orders, mainly for the purchase of various weapons as research objects.

Such as semi-automatic rifles, light and heavy machine guns, and even those outdated mortars that Scott once mentioned.

Of course, Lin Mo also directly stated that he just wanted to get some samples for research. If Scott can get other ones, he can also send them.

"By the way, there is something I need to mention to you. Someone is interested in the pistol kits and muzzle parts you are making, and wants to buy the patent from you or obtain a license."

After the matter was discussed, Scott mentioned something, saying that someone wanted to buy the kit and other patents, but his words were a bit vague and he did not specify who he was.

"Are they interested in weapons? Or patents?" Lin Mo did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically.

"It should be against weapons!" Scott replied vaguely. Of course, he missed everything that should be missed and could be missed.

"There's nothing to hide. Those are all developed based on our own special needs. China's military may still need them, but for those countries' armies, it's better than nothing. It's clear who needs them."

After hearing this, Scott shook his head helplessly and replied: "There are intelligence forces from several countries who are aware of our relationship and have expressed the same appeal."

"Since you are interested in weapons, just buy them. We have a special job. We buy the patents and produce them ourselves. When we take them out, it will be clear who is who.

It's better to buy ours, so that when there is an extra layer of cover, if something goes wrong, you can at least get it over with, and avoid someone making a fuss about it.

Don’t worry! We understand the rules, we don’t want to transfer the authorized patent, the technology is a bit weak, the production cost is not low, and the prices are raised randomly, so the things are a bit expensive.”

"...Haha..." Scott was amused and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I will relay your words to them. If nothing else, you should be able to see the money back."

Lin Mo nodded and didn't mention anything more. He settled down to the food on the table and had enough to eat and drink. Everyone stopped being polite and went back to make arrangements.

"Isn't it a little inappropriate to sell those things?" In the hotel, Xu Guyu didn't say anything to stop him. He got into the car and asked for the exit.

"Section Chief, if others really want to make these things themselves, they can easily imitate them, and even do them better than we can. Technically, there is no difficulty for them at all.

Just like Japan, as long as you want to do it, you can quickly imitate a lot of equipment. In fact, we are not doing this to gain any advantage in equipment, but to make up for the shortcomings and try to bring the two sides to the same level, not to mention pulling them down.

On one line, the gap can be narrowed as much as possible.

In this case, it doesn't matter whether it is sold or not. Moreover, the two sides are not in opposition at the moment. Even if it is impossible to ensure that the equipment flows into the hands of the Japanese, the impact will be the same if it flows away. Moreover, we may not even be able to control ourselves internally.

When others offer to buy, it is probably because we have some strength and want to sell it to save face, so we will sell it! There is no need to be petty. The reason why we sell weapons but not patents is because we want to take this opportunity to spread equipment.

With the proliferation of equipment, we will have more excuses to evade any flaws in our actions in the future to prevent others from taking out weapons and attacking us."

Xu Guyu thought for a moment and nodded in agreement with Lin Mo's words. Of course, he also realized that he just needed Lin Mo to give an accurate reply.

"Captain Lin, are you raising the price because of..." Wu Liangdong on the other side interrupted, steering the conversation to other aspects.

Lin Mo nodded and said: "There are inevitably tricks in military procurement. When the other party buys the patents, they naturally hand them over to people with connections. If we refuse, we naturally have to make up for their benefits from other places.

You don’t have to worry about it. Scott will take care of it. Uncle Wu, you don’t want to imitate the good and the bad. If you really need it, you’d rather have someone else give it to you than get it yourself. Some things are on it.

, it’s not that easy to get rid of.”

Wu Liangdong nodded quickly. This was drawing a bottom line for him! His attitude must be clear. Of course, he would not want or try to get involved in those things.

"By the way, Uncle Wu, please test the barrels Scott sent over before using them. Remember to keep the ones with higher accuracy."

Wu Liangdong heard this and asked: "Leave them to get the sniper rifle?"

"...Yes..." Lin Mo nodded and said: "In the short term, it is unrealistic to ask you to produce a sniper rifle barrel that meets the standards, so we can only test what we have on hand, keep the usable ones, and save them for later use."

"Are you even leaving those with a caliber of ten or twenty millimeters? A gun of this caliber, as well as a sniper rifle, might not be easy to handle?" Wu Liangdong raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard the hidden meaning.

"I won't ask you to make something too complicated. Bolt-action or even single-shot loading will do. No need to have multiple tubes for now. Just save it. The sniper rifle requires more than just the barrel. Other aspects are also critical. You still need to wait for a while.

Only then can it be used.”

Wu Liangdong nodded, hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Team Lin, it is the hemispherical steel shell of the mine. Can we choose to purchase it from abroad? We will further process it then."
