The investment in weapon research and development is scary, but the profits are high and you can make money quickly.

After all, it was my father-in-law, and Xia Yang had just finished selling.

Lawson was the first to stand up, "Sper purchased five Iron Dome destroyers, five Sea Devil conventional submarines, and corresponding base numbers of missiles. In addition, he ordered one Julang nuclear-powered aircraft carrier and one Sea Ghost nuclear submarine first. Likewise,

Including equipping corresponding missiles."

Lawson's purchase of such a large amount not only supports Xia Yang, but most importantly, he understands Xia Yang. Since Xia Yang said that buying at this time is the cheapest, then it is definitely the cheapest.

In addition, compared to other senior generals who doubt Li Ao's R&D capabilities, Lawson is not worried at all. The Blue Sky Passenger Jet has been manufactured and the troll engine has not been manufactured quietly, so there is no need to doubt it at all.

Liao’s R&D capabilities.

And Lawson knows how it is possible for Xia Yang to run a loss-making business. Did any of the projects invested by Li Ao, the red stone mine, the Laisuo heavy truck factory, the shipyard, or the aircraft factory lose money? They all made money.

What's more, this time is a huge investment of 20 billion US dollars. If Xia Yang was not sure, he would not make such a heavy bet even to death.

Therefore, if he were not worried that Congress would not approve more huge procurement budgets, Lawson would also like to order a few more JL nuclear aircraft carriers and nuclear submarines.

Lawson's generosity immediately attracted the attention of other senior generals and congressmen.

Xia Yang immediately smiled and said, "Yes, the order for payment of 30% of the total price within three days has been officially confirmed. Congratulations to you, Congressman Lawson, you will be our first customer for military industry, and your order will be given the highest priority for production.

I guarantee you that within two years at the latest, you will receive these warships, aircraft carriers, and nuclear submarines one after another."

Xia Yang smiled broadly. He wanted to surprise Lawson with this bidding, but Lawson gave him another surprise.

Because the original total budget for Sper's five destroyers and five submarines was only US$3 billion.

The total price of the five Iron Dome battleships and Sea Devil submarines he ordered on the spot was US$6 billion, which was half the cost, not counting the missiles they carried.

Not to mention, Lawson directly placed an order for a Julang nuclear aircraft carrier and a Sea Ghost nuclear submarine without the consent of the parliament. These two big guys cost 5.5 billion US dollars, including the missiles they carry.

, at least sixty dollars.

In other words, Lawson's order exceeded budget by at least $9 billion.

However, Xia Yang believes that in two years' time at the latest, the capital of Spur will not only not blame Lawson, but also reward him.

Because Xia Yang is really getting a big discount this time.

If other continental capitals place an order and pay 30% of the payment in advance, it will undoubtedly reduce the financial pressure on research and development, so he made some concessions on the price. It can be said that this village will no longer have this store, just for this day.

"Thank you. I believe Li Ao will not let me down. Of course Li Ao has never let me down."

Lawson stood up and said reservedly, cooperating with Xia Yang and exchanging business blows.

Xia Yang nodded, expressed his gratitude, and then continued to promote to various senior generals in the audience.

"And the person who placed the order, let me say it again, because I need to borrow 30% of the advance payment of your order to ease the pressure on R&D funds, so today's price will be the best. Once I leave this conference room

, if you order it later, whether it is an Iron Dome battleship, a Julang nuclear aircraft carrier, or even a missile, the price will increase by at least 20%."

Hearing what Xia Yang said, many generals and congressmen in the audience showed hesitation, but they just gathered together to talk and discuss in low voices, but no one placed an order.

It's okay now, I won't have any psychological burden if I kill these people again.

While Xia Yang was secretly sharpening his knife, a little old man with a red nose stood up.

Xia Yang has read the information and he is Speaker Andrew of Kunlan Continent.

"Hello Mr. Xia, I am not as wealthy as Lawson. Our Kunlan continent only has a warship budget of three billion US dollars, so I ordered three Iron Dome battleships and three Sea Demon submarines. In addition, if I pay the price in advance to

Can you give away the missiles equipped on these warships and submarines?"

Andrew actually bargained.

Xia Yang was speechless.

"No, an Iron Dome battleship is equipped with forty Red Bird anti-aircraft missiles and eight Exocet anti-ship missiles, with a total price of 48 million US dollars. A Sea Devil conventional submarine can carry up to twenty Black Shark heavy-duty missiles.

The total price of torpedoes is 60 million U.S. dollars, so if Speaker Andrew asks me to give them away in return, such as buying missiles and giving them to warships, maybe I can consider it."

Xia Yang made a joke. Of course, if the situation was different, he would definitely scold Andrew to death. He was joking that he bought a warship and submarine worth a total of 3.6 billion U.S. dollars, but asked for more than 300 million U.S. dollars in missiles as a gift. He thought he was buying Chinese cabbage.

Put onions?

Xia Yang's joke caused a burst of laughter.

"Well, it turns out that your company is not only expensive for battleships and submarines, but also for missiles. With the missiles included, the procurement overrun was nearly a billion dollars. I suddenly felt that I might be impeached if I bought back your company's battleships and submarines.

However, I believe that Mr. Xia’s products will not disappoint, because many of my mines in Kunlan have purchased the worker ant giant trucks and unicorn excavators produced by Mr. Xia’s company, and the quality is excellent!”

Andrew gave Xia Yang a thumbs up.

Xia Yang suddenly fell in love with this little old man.

When Andrew sat down, Xia Yang asked the audience again, "Do you still have an order to place? My time bid is coming soon. If you want to place an order, please hurry up. Otherwise, the price will increase when I leave this conference room."

Xia Yang was like a small businessman soliciting customers, which caused a burst of good-natured laughter in the conference room.

The only one who didn't laugh was Lieutenant General Kant. Obviously, Xia Yang completely outclassed the McCree family in this bidding, and he might not even be able to get a single warship order.

He looked at Congressman Judy worriedly, but Congressman Judy didn't look at him. Instead, he was talking in low voices with legislators from several other continents.

First, Lawson's strong support, and then Speaker Andrew's order, which gave generals and congressmen from other continents a lot more confidence in Xia Yang's ability to develop and manufacture those advanced warships and submarines.

As a result, Xinnanzhou and Victoriazhou placed orders, but they were stingy and not as generous as Speaker Andrew. They spent all their budgets and even overspent.

These two continents are just testing the waters, each placing an order for an Iron Dome battleship and a Sea Demon submarine.

In the end, only Tasmania and South Australia have not placed orders, and they are probably still waiting and watching.

However, this already made Xia Yang very satisfied, especially since Weiduozhou placed the order, because Weiduozhou is the continent where Mobon City is located, which means that it has snatched the order from the McCree family.

Xia Yang gained a lot from this bidding.

In addition to Lawson's large order of US$12 billion, it also received orders for five Iron Dome battleships and five Sea Devil submarines from three other continents, worth US$6 billion.

The total price of the four orders is US$18 billion, not including the missiles it carries, and the 30% advance deposit is US$6 billion.

With six billion US dollars in reserve funds, Ed wanted to add more research and development funds, and Xia Yang felt that he could throw the money at his face.
