Du Fei stayed in the capital for more than a month and took a plane to Bagoda again.
This time Sa Damu took the risk and came to the airport to greet him in person.
Although he was relieved beforehand, Sa Damu still couldn't restrain his excitement and gave Du Fei a big hug when they met: "Du, my brother, thank you so much!"
According to Huaguo's final decision, they agreed to help Babylon develop a mushroom industry to a certain extent. Because it was more sensitive, they would not go through official channels, and Du Fei's fire equipment company was still responsible for contacting them.
After a brief exchange of greetings, Du Fei and Sa Damu returned to the underground headquarters by car.
Secret talks are held here.
Du Fei said: "This time I will bring several experts to evaluate the level of your related facilities and then carry out subsequent development planning."
Sa Damu nodded repeatedly, secretly thinking that Huaguo people were reliable in doing things, what kind of efficiency was this.
When I first started working with Faguo, I was always fickle and dragging my feet, and every little thing would take several days.
Du Fei's attitude contrasted with that of the French, which made Sa Damu full of confidence in future cooperation.
Du Fei continued: "But I'm going to say something ugly first, don't have too high expectations for your existing facilities."
Sa Damu frowned and opened his mouth to say something, but Du Fei stopped him: "I know you cooperated with the French and invested a lot of money, but with all due respect, the French have some technology and are at an advanced level.
, in this regard, there is no denying that it is ahead of us."
Sa Damu was silent, what Du Fei said was very objective. At this point in time, France's mushroom technology is still quite advanced.
Du Fei said: "But~ based on my understanding of the French, it is impossible for them to come up with real technology, even if you spend a lot of money..."
Sa Damu was speechless. Although he knew it in his heart, having Du Fei say it to his face still made him feel uncomfortable.
Du Fei continued: "So, according to my opinion, we will not accept the French mess, let's start from scratch."
Sa Damu was stunned and blinked his eyes quickly, somewhat unwillingly.
Those built facilities and enrichment plants are all in US dollars!
Why not use it if it’s already available? Could it be that the money spent before was wasted?
Thinking of this, Sa Damu wanted to advise Du Fei to use existing facilities.
Du Fei smiled, of course he would not agree.
Others may not know it, but he knows best in his heart that the current mushroom raw material concentration factory located near Bagoda will soon be destroyed by the Utai Air Force. It is definitely not worth the gain to continue to use this facility.
It's just that Sa Damu has just realized the hardships of living a poor life, and must give up his idea of 'saving'.
Du Fei said seriously: "Sa Damu, my brother, it's not that I don't understand your investment in construction, but... can you ensure absolute safety in that place now? There are too many French marks there, once you terminate the cooperation...
"
Although Du Fei didn't finish his words, Sa Damu's expression became solemn and he said solemnly: "You mean the French... they will cause destruction?"
Du Fei said: "They don't even need to take action themselves. As long as they reveal some information, someone will help them do it. For example... the Youtai people."
Sa Damu frowned, Du Fei's words were not alarmist, the French could indeed do this kind of thing, and the Youtai people did have the motive and the courage.
Du Fei said: "If this affects our entire plan, I think this is not the result you want to see."
Having said that, what else could Sa Damu say~
Finally, he changed his mind and decided to invest another billion dollars to rebuild a secret base in the mountains two hundred kilometers north of Bagoda.
This base will be fully managed by Huaguo's engineering and technical personnel, and all the machinery and equipment will be imported from Huaguo. The staff will be sent to Huaguo in advance to receive one-year training.
Sa Damu also proposed that he hopes to send thirty mushroom experts to Huaguo to study.
This condition was also raised when we first cooperated with the French.
At that time, the French reluctantly agreed, but when they were sent, they were evasive in every possible way and did not teach the real thing at all. They also tried every means to persuade the elite scientists of Babylon to give up their nationality and immigrate to Europe.
At that time, there was smoke in the seven orifices where the big wood gas was being spread, but there was nothing that could be done.
Of course he knew the importance of talents, but the atmosphere in Babylon and even the entire Middle East made it impossible to cultivate a large number of scientists of a certain level.
Theocratic rule and the fact that they have not carried out modern social reforms have made the governance level of many countries in the Middle East very primitive. In Du Fei's view, it was the warlords who fought in the past. The level of Zhang Zuolin, Wu Pengfei, and Sun Chuanfang was one step lower than that of Principal Chang.
cut.
It was not until a few decades later, at the time before Du Fei's time travel, that as the world situation changed, did the Middle Eastern countries see hope of completely changing this situation.
Du Fei readily agreed to Sa Damu's request, and even took the initiative to suggest that Babylon could send more foreign students to Huaguo, not only in mushrooms, but also in various other industrial categories, Huaguo.
Sa Damu's eyes lit up, he didn't expect such a good thing!
From his perspective, he certainly understood the importance of industrialization, but Babylon did not have the conditions to complete industrialization in terms of its natural geographical endowments, population size, and humanistic environment.
Under such circumstances, if we want to complete industrialization and become a regional power, we must rely on external forces.
Babylon has always done this, starting from the time of Becker. It first moved closer to SMU and then tried to Europe, but the results were not good.
In the end, they were left with a large amount of dollars from selling oil, but they were unable to turn these dollars into factories. Instead, they had no choice but to buy foreign treasury bonds and become a boost to foreign economic development.
If we can cooperate with Huaguo, it might be an opportunity.
Although Huaguo's technological and industrial levels are not satisfactory in the world, it at least has a complete industrial system and a solid foundation in important high-tech projects such as mushroom bombs, missiles, rockets, and satellites.
As for Du Fei, the idea of sending overseas students to Babylon was very simple and very profitable!
This is not to be taken for granted, but there is the example of Ribia.
This year, there are more than 4,000 international students studying in Libya. These are all children of the wealthy class. In addition to the annual subsidy of 10,000 US dollars provided by the government, their families will also provide additional living expenses.
In order to allow these international students to spend money, five-star accommodation standards are provided uniformly, and there are also special dining halls for meals... In short, there must not be a situation where "people have graduated and the money has not been spent".
On average, the annual consumption level of these international students is more than 15,000 US dollars per person.
Babylon is richer than Libya. Although Sadamu has spent all his foreign exchange reserves due to war, the people of Babylon, especially the wealthy class, are quite wealthy.
If Babylon can send 10,000 foreign students and each student spends 20,000 US dollars a year, that is 200 million US dollars.
Only then did Du Fei understand why so many Guo families regarded studying abroad as an important industry in the world before he traveled through time.
It's a pity that the current flowers and fruits are still in their infancy in this regard. There is no need to think about attracting European and American students. However, those from Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and North Africa can work harder and get more.
This meeting with Du Fei made Sa Damu very happy.
Although the factory needs to be rebuilt, to him it is a small matter that can be solved with money.
Coupled with Du Fei's initiative to study abroad, he saw the hope of industrialization through flowers and fruits.
With the size of Babylon, it is not expected to have many industrial categories, but at least a basic military industry system must be in place. When fighting a war, you will not have to ask grandpa to ask grandma to import a bullet or a cannon shell.
However, Sa Damu's good mood did not last long.
On the second day of his secret meeting with Dufy, something went wrong in France.
"Your Excellency, the French have just sent an official letter, hoping that our next batch of funds can be received in advance..." A middle-aged man wearing glasses came to Sa Damu's office and reminded tremblingly.
Sa Damu looked ugly. The last recording made his impression of France hit rock bottom.
Now that he knows that the other party doesn't want to help him get mushroom bombs at all, and all the nice things he said before are lies, how can he continue to give him money?
But the problem is that all the Mirage fighter jets he bought in France have not been delivered yet. Even if they are delivered, there will be follow-up logistical maintenance problems, so he certainly cannot rush to break up with them.
Sa Damu muttered: "Tell them that there is no cash for the time being and ask them to wait."
The middle-aged man wearing glasses responded. He was not too surprised by this result. As the confidant in charge of mushroom bombs around Sa Damu, he knew the current situation very well. With the intervention of Huaguo, France was no longer the only one.
Sa Damu added: "In addition, let the Air Force speed up the progress and bring the plane back as soon as possible without causing unnecessary complications."
The middle-aged man responded, but he knew in his heart that it was all in vain. It was almost impossible to improve the efficiency of work in France.
…
On the other side, the French quickly received the news.
A short white man wearing black-rimmed glasses said with a gloomy face: "It seems that the news we got is correct. Sa Damu has obtained certain promises from Huaguo. Otherwise, there has never been any delay in funding for the Mushroom Project in the past.
Condition."
A middle-aged Frenchman standing next to him said disdainfully: "Huaguo people~ Sa Damu actually believes in those with whips..."
"François!" the little white man shouted, stopping his companion's unpleasant words: "Don't talk about these meaningless nonsense, they are no longer the Qing Dynasty, and now Huaguo has defeated the United Fruit in Korea.
The army did not fail in the battle with Sulian on Zhenbao Island, easily defeating Nihelu's Indu Central Army! Their GDP surpassed ours last year, what qualifications do you think we have to laugh at them?"
The Frenchman named Francois was speechless.
The little man took a breath and said, "Okay, I don't want to hear any such meaningless remarks in the future."
"Yes~" François agreed, then asked again: "What about Sa Damu..."
The little man rolled his eyes, remained silent for a few seconds and said, "It seems that it's time to end this. Let's report it to the Intelligence Coordination Committee~ It should be difficult for us to get money from Babylon again in the future."
Sa Damu didn't know that after he refused the French's request for money, the information about Babylon's mushroom facilities quickly reached America's ClA through the French Cleanup Coordination Committee, and then reached Youtai's MSD through ClA.
In hand...
At the same time, the F-16 fighter jet America had just equipped arrived at Youtai as soon as possible.
Necessary factors were quickly gathered one by one, the French were ready to withdraw, and America was ready to take action.
It's just that now we need to use heavy measures to contain Persia. America can't do it herself, someone must take the blame.
The value of Youtai's existence is reflected.
…
Half a month later, Du Fei has been busy helping Babylon prepare a new mushroom raw material concentration factory.
When I returned from Babylon last time, the first batch of funds for Sadamu was quickly received, and the relevant domestic departments were put into operation immediately.
Regarding the underground base, the architectural drawings and machinery and equipment of the enrichment plant are all ready-made.
At the beginning of the cooperation, we must show high efficiency that is different from the French.
And there is no need to delay this kind of thing. Such a big project cannot be completed overnight.
In addition, feedback from Persia also came.
Last time, Du Fei passed the news through Lou Hongyi, telling Persia that Sadam was preparing for the next wave of offensive and had accumulated more than 3,000 tanks.
The purpose is to stimulate the potential of Persia.
Although most of the profits from selling oil have been eaten up by Du Fei and America, a fruit family as big as Persia was still so wealthy before, and there was a lot of wealth among the people, such as gold and silver jewelry. Work hard
It will always be raised.
After learning the news, Persia went through various channels to verify it with a clear purpose.
Sure enough, it was confirmed that Babylon was preparing for a large-scale attack.
Especially the tank troops, this is definitely a nightmare for Persia.
Before the war, the Persian armored forces were greatly damaged, and there were no more than a thousand tanks available. After several wars, even if they were purchased from foreign countries, there are now less than 600 tanks that retain combat capability.
Needless to say, Sa Damu still has vision to some extent.
Having noticed that the Persian tank troops had suffered serious losses, they launched a torrent of steel before the enemy recovered, completely ending the war.
It's a pity that his eyes were only focused on the battlefield, but he didn't realize that at this point in time, the whole world would not allow this war to be decided.
Soon, Persia launched a gold donation campaign, raising 60 tons of gold, plus 1.4 billion U.S. dollars, a total of nearly 2.5 billion U.S. dollars, to purchase various anti-tank weapons, landmines, artillery, and rocket launchers.
The Persians knew that with their financial resources, they would definitely be unable to defeat tanks with tanks, so they could only use cheaper weapons to offset the enemy's armor advantage.
In addition to Huaguo, Persia is also trying every possible means to hoard more anti-tank weapons through various channels.
By the end of the year, the whole world could see that Babylon and Persia were holding back their big moves.
Throughout the second half of 1978, there were no major battles in the Bamboo battlefield, and it was just a stalemate.
In the arms market, both sides have made big purchases.
Seeing Huaguo making money, it really makes many people greedy.
