Chapter 1477 12 times the price
Among the purchase information obtained from secret channels, Yang Yuanzhao was almost 90% sure that the British wanted to use this motivation to study tanks, but there was no way to explain it clearly. However, after knowing the result, it would be much easier to find flaws in the middle. Yang Yuanzhao thought about it and test this matter. Through secret channels, the price they had given them was increased by 3 times on the original basis, from 8oo US dollars to 24oo US dollars.
This is not the 24oo US dollar in the 21st century. In this era, the US dollar and the pound can be directly exchanged for gold. The US dollar and the pound have a synonym for US dollar and gold pound respectively. The purchasing power is quite amazing, and the growth rate is quite huge.
From the beginning 4 times to now, it is equivalent to a total increase of 12 times. Such a price has exceeded the price of China's export trucks. Although the price has increased in all aspects of the war stalls, the price increase of 12 times is also terrible enough. A normal business transaction, a price of 12 times is enough to get them out of the transaction. After all, not everyone can accept it.
In fact, after receiving the offer, the British were in a very bitter mood. The dignified British Empire actually suffered such a forced to buy something at a price of 12 times. This is probably only medicines and stockings that can reach this level. The former is a life-saving thing, while the latter is the love of every woman. Even if she cannot enjoy changing it once a day, she must buy a collection. Therefore, even if the price of medicines and stockings is high, it only affects his sales quantity and does not affect his shipment.
Now, this thing has fallen into industrial products. Since the beginning of the industrial revolution era, Britain has always been at the forefront of the world's science and technology. Although it was later passed by Germany and the United States, it was not much different. This shows from the equipment of the 6th Army and the Navy that even in the naval field, Britain has always been the world's number one, and Germany can only catch up, which can be seen from the strength of the battleships.
In the first battle, Germany had to pass the British in terms of sunk resistance, but everything else was useless. Whether it was firepower, degree, or other airworthiness, the strength of the British battleship was above Germany, that is, in the bathtub of the North Sea, even the degree, airworthiness, etc., leaving only protection and attack.
China has appeared countless times and has made Britain helpless. Needless to say, the fantasy level is now a perfect battleship that Britain and the United States have combined all the technological standards and cannot produce. Even the Queen Elizabeth class, which is called the perfect class by the British, is still a certain distance from it. Some more orthodox designers no longer regard the Queen Elizabeth class as the perfect battleship. With the fantasy level in front, the Queen Elizabeth class is not perfect at all.
It's just a big battleship. This may be the result of breakthroughs in some areas, but now, the motivation has been slapped in the face again. A diesel engine with a horsepower of more than 12o horsepower. This one looks very simple but not expensive, but it concentrates the entire British manpower and cannot be placed. It sounds very fantasy, but it really exists. Just such a boundary, it looks simple, but it really cannot be achieved.
This was a painful choice, but Yang Yuanzhao calculated very clearly. The British side was indeed for the sake of tanks. Faced with the temptation of tanks, the unreasonable price of 24oo US dollars, the UK agreed after several hesitation. However, news came from the channel that they asked that if possible, add a large amount, and not as before. There were only a few hundred, preferably more than oo, the more, the better.
It seemed that the lion opened his mouth and Shi Lei thought that Yang Yuanzhao would refuse, but who knew that Yang Yuanzhao actually agreed. 24oo dollars per oo, oo, more than before. The price of 24oo dollars per oo is worth 720,000 US dollars. If it was exchanged for gold, it would be 360,000 ounces. Such a huge gold has brought considerable benefits to China. Even though several large-scale gold mines have been opened and a large amount of gold has been obtained from Germany and Russia, China still lacks gold.
China's market is really too big, with a population of 650 million, reaching the financial system and a vast market, the demand for money is quite large. Yang Yuanzhao doesn't know about finance. Although he knows that selling a large amount of money will not cause any problem, he still does not have a large amount of money, at most at the highest limit of the ratio of gold to precious metals. This batch of gold appears to be 720,000 US dollars in gold, but it may be more than 10 times, or even 20 times for China. This is a current Chinese economy that cannot ignore the number.
The most important thing is that the information requested by Yang Yuanzhao has been fed back, and the result is quite obvious. It is definitely a purpose for 720,000 yuan, and it is not money, but gold. This price is definitely very considerable. If there is no sufficient profit and such a huge amount of funds will not be wasted casually, I am afraid that the UK will avoid long nights and dreams.
Since the British paid such a great price, Yang Yuanzhao was certainly willing to give them some more sweetness. When the intelligence department was preparing to purchase supplies and confirm the final transaction with the other party, Yang Yuanzhao raised objections and told the British through secret channels that China could even provide a 18o horsepower diesel engine based on the original 12o horsepower, but in terms of price, it was not a small amount. It charged 18o more. The price of one was an astonishing 42o yuan, which increased the total number of orders to more than 12o thousand US dollars, almost half a battleship.
This was originally a demand to make things worse. In the inconsistency of the intelligence personnel, they fed back through secret channels, but the final result was beyond their expectations. This time, the other party couldn't wait, and it took one or two days to feedback the information. This time, it only took less than two hours to report it. He was afraid that China would not agree, and he agreed with full permission and did not hesitate about payment. Gold can only be traded with gold.
Of course, the UK will be very happy. Their purpose is not trucks, a diesel engine with a 18o horsepower. If the combination is suitable, the road is also a high-standard road. It can even produce trucks that can drive more than 12 tons of goods, from about 7.5 tons to 12 tons, or even 15 tons. This increase is considered huge, but for the improvement of transportation, there is no way to compare with the increased price. This is a robbery. Instead of doing so, it is better to buy a few more motivation numbers.
Yang Yuanzhao grasped the British's ideas and did this. The motivation did not appear for transportation, but for putting it on the tank. That would be completely different. Motivation is the absolute core of the tank. Only with strong power can it bring improvement to the tank. With 60 horsepower, the tank can be equipped with larger armor and higher degrees. This is very obvious for the improvement of the tank. This has been clearly foreseeable in the 6th Cruiser Research Institute.
Because of this, the UK hurriedly agreed before notifying the senior management. After knowing all this, the discomfort caused by the previous price increase disappeared in an instant. The UK had already launched an 87 horsepower motivation, and the purchase was only 12o horsepower. For less than 4o horsepower, it paid a 12x price, but it increased 6o horsepower, but it only paid less than twice the price. If it was calculated in total, it might only be five or six times, basically the same as the first time. Such a result is absolutely acceptable. Not to mention that when the 12o horsepower increased to 18o horsepower, the performance improvement of the tank was very obvious, almost 50% higher, which is inevitable for the UK. They can even imagine that when the 18o horsepower motivation was equipped into the tank, the power of the tank exploded.
Both parties confirmed the final result and agreed on payment and transaction methods. Although it was from different channels, the general direction was determined and carried out very quickly. These motivations were originally the mainstream motivation in China. The annual output was millions of units. Some of them were randomly allocated without waiting for order production. This was completely stress-free for the intelligence department.
All preparations are proceeding in an orderly manner. The total weight of the oo table will not exceed 60 tons, and the volume will not exceed oo cubic meters. This is just a very small part under China's huge transportation capacity. It has long been a mature secret channel. It will not only take a minute to get such a small thing out, but it will not affect it, and there is no need to spend much energy.
What the intelligence department is most puzzled by Yang Yuanzhao is Yang Yuanzhao's attitude. The price of motivation has increased by at least 12 times compared to the domestic price, and gold is still used for trading. This is also a good result for the motivation field. China can rely on 50,000 ounces of gold at least, and it can rely on at least 10 times or even 20 times of currency, which has a considerable effect on delaying China's currency tightening.
However, isn’t it impossible to sell strategic materials like this? After the outbreak of the war, Yang Yuanzhao chose to reduce the sales of trucks. Whether it is secret channels or some semi-public channels, trucks are not sold. Why is it easy to lift the ban now? It is obvious that the world situation has not changed greatly, why is this happening? (To be continued.)8
