Rebirth of the National Marshal

Chapter 266 Trade with Germany

Although these warships may have many customers around the world, those customers are currently unwilling to trade with him. Even if he takes out these destroyers, he may not be able to sell them at a good price, and he may also have many disputes with them. But it is different with the Germans. From the very beginning, the Germans have been the best customers in Mao Yuanshan's mind.

The Germans were of course very satisfied with the Fletcher-class destroyer, because this type of destroyer was a meritorious destroyer during World War II. The Americans built hundreds of them, and it was these destroyers that caused both German and Japanese submarines to suffer. The performance was definitely very good, and the exchange price was also very good. Mao Yuanshan could earn millions of dollars just by selling them.

"It seems that your German Navy is going to make a big move. Actually, my friend doesn't have many of these destroyers. If you want to buy the old-style destroyers from Britain, they have a lot of them, but this new type of destroyer may be out of stock. If you want to buy it, I can ask my friend for you, but the price will definitely be different from before." Mao Yuanshan said with some embarrassment. In fact, the German government had already thought of these words when he said them. The current world situation is completely different from what it was some time ago, mainly because of Germany and Italy.

Such fascist countries are creating a dangerous atmosphere throughout the world, and this atmosphere makes everyone feel the danger and they are all increasing their military strength.

If a country does not have a strong military strength, then no matter how rich it is, the money may become someone else's. Therefore, when all countries are increasing their military equipment, the prices of these arms will rise, just like these destroyers now. Mao Yuanshan also said that Colonel Hans also discussed with their country's highest staff. The last time they purchased a Fletcher-class destroyer, the price was 1600 million oceans.

At that time, the German High Command had already studied it. Even if the Germans themselves knew the price, it should be around 1700 million oceans. What's more, it was purchased by someone else, and it was off-the-shelf goods. If the Germans manufactured it themselves, they would not have so many destroyers in at least three years. The spot price they give you is 100 million oceans cheaper than in your country.

This was a huge bargain. The Germans also understood that the second batch would definitely not be priced this high. This was mainly because Mao Yuanshan wanted to implement compulsory education in his jurisdiction, and he could not come up with the money all at once, so he could only earn it from the Germans. Germany was also the world's second largest industrial power, and they were not the world's second largest industrial power, but they had made a lot of money all over the world. If they did not plunder their money, they would be doing themselves a disservice.

"Dear Mr. Mao, you also know that we Germans have been vigorously developing our armaments recently. We have not raised the price for you. All the goods we give you are at our cost price, so please discuss with your friends and it is best not to raise the price for us." Although the German government is ready to raise the price, it is still necessary to fight for it at this time. Wouldn't it be better if there is no price increase? If the price is increased, it will be in the millions of dollars, which is definitely not a small amount, and the quantity they purchase is very huge.

"Colonel Hans, what you said is a bit polite. If I produced these destroyers, I could even give them to you without a penny, because we are best friends. Just like you support me, I am very clear about what I do, but they are also my friends. I cannot harm their interests for your benefit, just like I cannot harm your interests because of their interests. Do you understand what I mean?" Among all the nations in the world, the Chinese are the most artistic in speaking, just like what Mao Yuanshan said now, which directly confused Colonel Hans. Colonel Hans didn't quite understand at first, but later he understood that Mao Yuanshan was telling the truth. I am a friend to you and also a friend to others. I cannot harm the interests of friends because of friendship.

Such a statement would be very easy for Colonel Hans to accept, and he could report to the German High Command after returning.

"Mr. Mao is of course our best friend, but you should be able to see the difficulties of our German government. We have not yet recovered from the reparations for the First World War, and the fiscal deficit is enormous. So we hope that the price will not increase too much." Mao Yuanshan did not expect that these old-fashioned Germans were so experienced in crying poor. Although you were required to pay huge reparations for the First World War, how much money did you finally pay out? It was not even as much as the loans the Americans gave you. It can be said that you have taken advantage of everything. Your government does not have such a large fiscal deficit. I am very clear about this. It is mainly caused by the vigorous expansion of the military by your respected leader.

"I have no way to answer you about this question now. After all, these things are not under my control. If the prices of these things are all within my control, we can negotiate. We have been doing business with each other for a long time, so these things don't matter." At this moment, Mao Yuanshan and Colonel Hans have both lost their identities. They are now businessmen, working hard for their own interests. Any slight difference may cause them to lose millions of oceans.

The education department of the Chahar local government has already made a budget to build about 100 schools in the entire Chahar area and recruit teachers, etc. The expenses will cost nearly 1000 million yuan. After the students enter school, the annual expenses will also be around this amount, so 2000 million yuan of special funds must be set aside to pay tuition for students in the Chahar area.

The monthly tax revenue in Chahar region is pitifully small, only about 200 million oceans, and the annual revenue is only about 2400 million oceans. Together with the central government's allocation, it is only about 4000 million oceans. If all this money is invested in education, there will be no need to do anything else.
