After Zhang Tao signed his name, he thought for a moment that Liu Hai had so much money in the bank that he should spend some of it. This small amount of copper coins alone was not enough to consume such a large amount of funds.
"Boss Liu, that's great. I have something to discuss with you."
Liu Hai was holding the signed contract and was laughing. This was not a piece of flimsy white paper. This was 10 million copper coins. In the Qing Dynasty, this would be of great use.
"Tell me, what can't we brothers say?"
"It's like this. The country had a batch of drones that were originally ordered to South America. But as a result, that small country was interfered by who knows which country. It didn't even ask for a deposit and just tore up the contract."
After hearing this, Liu Hai put down the document in his hand, thought for a while, and then said: "Brother Zhang, do you mean to let me take over these drones?"
"Yes, let me tell you, although these drones cannot be said to be the most advanced, they are enough for you to maintain your advantage on the battlefield."
After hearing this, Liu Hai frowned, and then asked uncertainly: "This drone needs a satellite positioning system, right? What's the use of me taking it?"
"Brother Liu, let me tell you the truth. Whether or not there is a positioning system is very important in our modern world. But for you, there is no interference in the sky, so you don't need to use the positioning system at all."
Liu Hai was silent for a long time. In fact, he understood in his heart that Zhang Tao was deceiving him. The drone's mission relied heavily on navigation satellites in the sky. If there was no navigation, satellites would constantly provide him with coordinates in the sky.
, UAVs will have great deviations depending on their own equipment.
Zhang Tao saw Liu Hai was silent, knowing that it was not easy to fool, so he could only say helplessly: "Let's do this, there are 48 drones in this batch, I will give you a 40% discount, what do you think?"
There is a reason why Zhang Tao offers such a low price, because although these drones have just been produced, their technical level is still much worse than those for personal use.
Therefore, the military does not look down on these obsolete goods at all. Now this batch of weapons has been stored in the warehouse. If they are kept for a while, I am afraid they will only be sent to the combat readiness warehouse as used goods.
Liu Hai was a little tempted when he heard the other party's such a low price. Although he was talking about the Qing Dynasty plane and there was no support from satellites in the sky, the equipment and performance of these aircraft were enough to complete many tasks.
Zhang Tao looked at Liu Hai's uncertainty and knew that he was a little tempted, so he quickly continued to sell.
"If you are worried about being unable to command operations without satellites, that is not a problem at all."
"Our Rainbow 4 UAV has a combat radius of 1,000 to 2,000 kilometers with satellite support, but even without satellite support, the combat radius can reach 250 kilometers. I think this can fully meet your current combat needs.
.”
"In addition, I have an advantage, that is, airports are not as strict as airplanes. As long as there is a relatively flat runway, drones can take off."
Liu Hai was really tempted when he heard Zhang Tao's deception. If it was true as Zhang Tao said, these drones could really play a big role.
In the future, whether it is the war against the Rakshasa Kingdom or the annihilation of Cixi in the west, it will play a great role.
"In that case, I will accept Brother Zhang's more than 40 drones first. If they are used well, I will continue to purchase them."
"That's right. The military is constantly moving forward. How much progress can you make if you always hold on to those junk? With these new weapons, not only can you broaden your horizons, but they can also provide the military with very important information.
With strong support, why not?”
After listening to Zhang Tao's words, Liu Hai could only keep pandering from the side. In fact, Liu Hai ordered these 48 rainbow drones from Zhang Tao this time. That is because Liu Hai discovered during the battle that when investigating the enemy, he used them every time.
The JH-7 is somewhat overqualified. It happens to have 48 Rainbow 4 integrated reconnaissance and attack drones, which can conduct very rapid reconnaissance over the enemy and carry out aerial strikes on key targets. This will greatly increase Liu Hai's ground coverage.
The offensive capabilities of the unit.
After saying this, Zhang Tao stood up and was about to come here. He had completed today's task.
But Liu Hai immediately stopped him, "Brother Zhang, wait."
"What else?"
"Have you forgotten, what happened to the ten 054 frigates I ordered from the country more than a year ago?"
Zhang Tao really forgot about this matter, so he slapped his forehead and said: "If you didn't mention it, I would have really forgotten about him."
"Brother Zhang, hasn't the warship construction started yet?" Although Liu Hai knew that this situation was impossible, he was still worried about the progress of the warship.
"Don't worry, even if I forget about the shipyard, I won't forget it. I seem to have heard that water testing has started there and it should be delivered in a few months."
Liu Hai frowned after hearing this. He would go to war with the Rakshasa Kingdom next, and in the end he would have to fight against the entire West.
Although the current surface ships of the Nanyang Navy are technically several levels ahead of the warships of various countries in this era, especially the modern-class destroyers, they were simply a Tyrannosaurus rex in that era.
But the water surface he controls now is so large, and the number of these warships is still quite small. If he is really besieged by enemies from all directions, he may be unable to do anything.
"Brother Zhang, that's it. Now that the warship has been launched for testing, does that mean that it has been completed and is just waiting for the final acceptance?"
Zhang Tao nodded after listening to Liu Hai's words, that was indeed what he meant.
"That's it, Brother Zhang. I think there is no need to conduct the final test. I believe in our country's construction capabilities. I want to take away all the warships this time. What do you think?"
After Zhang Tao listened, he looked at Liu Hai and thought to himself, isn't this guy starting to cause trouble in that plane again? Otherwise, why would he be so anxious to get these ten 054 frigates to support him?
"Okay, I'm going to call the shipyard now and ask them if the main test has been completed. If it is completed, then some other small tests can be stopped for you and the goods will be delivered directly."
After hearing this, Liu Hai expressed his gratitude again and again, and then kept gesturing to Zhang Tao with his eyes, asking him to call quickly to complete the matter.
Zhang Tao was helpless when Liu Hai winked at him, so he could only take out his phone, find a secluded place outside the villa, and start contacting the other party.
After a while, Zhang Tao returned to the villa, smiled and said to Liu Hai: "It's no problem. In a few days, let them park the warship for you at Qingdao Port. You'd better pick up the goods yourself."
Liu Hai was overjoyed after hearing what Zhang Tao said, "Then I'd like to thank Brother Zhang."
Liu Hai is now a little complacent. He calculated that his air force already has nearly 160 JH-7s, plus 50 H-6 bombers and 48 Rainbow drones. In the sky of the entire Qing Dynasty plane,
There is no opponent for him anymore.
If you add this batch of 054 frigates at sea, they will have greater capabilities to resist attacks from all directions.
Because Liu Hai knew very well that as he unified the entire Qing Dynasty, the next task would be domestic governance and external expansion.
The Western powers were absolutely unwilling to see a fully powerful Qing Dynasty stand up again in the world.
Therefore, they will definitely try their best to suppress Liu Hai, even forming a joint fleet to completely strangle Liu Hai's sea and air power.
Although Liu Hai is not afraid of them now, think about the missiles on his 051 destroyer and Gorky cruiser. Although they are quite powerful, the number of missiles they carry is still very small due to their size and various reasons. If the opponent really attacks in a swarm,
I'm afraid these warships haven't been able to cope with it yet.
At this time, it is the time for the 054 frigate to come into use. With its forty-eight vertical launch units, if it launches anti-ship missiles together, it is enough to cause completely irreparable damage to any fleet in the world.
Liu Hai then stayed in Modern Times for a few more days, comforted Wang Fang and went back to his hometown to visit, and finally said goodbye to his relatives and headed to Qingdao.
When Liu Hai came to Qingdao, 48 Rainbow Four drones were already stored in the combat readiness warehouse here. In addition to drones, there were also many air-to-surface missiles.
Liu Hai looked at these missiles and smiled with satisfaction. He did not pay for these missiles. It seemed that they gave them to him for free because he had dealt with the problem of drones for Zhang Tao this time.
In a warehouse next to the drone, Zhang Tao also prepared the 10 million copper coins for him according to the original contract.
Moreover, Zhang Tao was very considerate this time and strung each thousand copper coins together, making it much easier for Liu Hai to count.
After Liu Hai collected these supplies, he received 10 054 frigates at the dock that night, and then left modern times and returned to the Qing Dynasty.
As soon as Liu Hai returned to the Qing Dynasty, he was approached by Zhao Jiahua, who was now in charge of the Military Aircraft Department.
"Commander, you are reckless this time."
"Oh, what's going on?"
"Originally, we asked the people to do corvee work without spending a penny, and we could just let them eat as long as they wanted. Now you directly announce that each person will be given 500 coins per month. The court cannot support such a large expenditure now."
After saying this, Zhao Jiahua began to carefully calculate Liu Hai's expenditures during this period.
This is not unknown. After the calculation, my bangs were shocked.
It turns out that Liu Hai has been using troops continuously during this period. Although the air force is paid by Liu Hai's private pocket, for the army and navy, the court has to provide most of the money.
This money is a very big burden for the court, which currently only has finance and taxation in the Liangjiang area. Now Liu Hai has added migrant workers to the list. No wonder Zhao Jiahua came to Liu Hai to complain.
