Back to the 90s: I Helped the Beautiful Factory Manager Become an Arms Tycoon

"As you know, Commander Dong, the Yellow River Factory is facing bankruptcy. Its raw materials and equipment are the worst. The parts for these fifteen Barrett rifles were even processed by the Tianhe Factory."

Knowing the meager conditions of the Yellow River factory, Dong Dawei thought about it carefully for a long time before making an important decision.

"How about this, you can sell me five."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yunhai and Qiu Meizi exchanged a glance, both seeing surprise in each other's eyes.

Doesn't Dong Dawei really like this kind of gun? Why did he only order five? Is it because he's worried about the price?

Seeing the two men's confused expressions, Dong Dawei took the initiative to explain, "I really like Bartlett. With it around, even if there is any friction, it can reduce a lot of casualties."

"But as you know, the Eighth and Ninth Armies are the poorest of all the armies. I can't buy many for the time being, and I can't let you give them to me at a loss."

“I’ve thought about it. Commander Zhao is rich, and he must really like this kind of gun. You can sell the remaining ten to him for a high price.”

"Miko, now that Barrett has been successfully produced, can it be produced indefinitely as long as the funding is in place?"

Qiu Meizi glanced at Lin Yunhai and nodded.

"In that case, how about we wait until your factory is up and running and starts mass production of this weapon before selling it to me at a low price?"

Dong Dawei knew that Qiu Meizi and the others came to him first because they wanted to repay the kindness he had shown them before.

But this stage is a crucial one for the Yellow River Factory, and he hopes that the Yellow River Factory can survive.

Given their relationship, as long as the Yellow River Factory survives, he will definitely receive benefits in the future.

Moreover, as he listened to Lin Yunhai speak calmly, he realized that this kid definitely knew more than just this one type of gun; he must have many more tricks up his sleeve.

He could only catch a big fish by casting a long line, and he was completely patient.

Knowing that Dong Dawei was thinking of their factory, Lin Yunhai agreed to his proposal without hesitation and sold them five units first.

Next, we discussed the price.

Lin Yunhai and his companion originally intended to trade the five Barrett rifles to Dong Dawei at the lowest price, but Dong Dawei refused. He chose to buy them at the highest price, ignoring Qiu Meizi's attempts to persuade him.

After the transaction was completed, Dong Dawei sent Chen Jianguo with men to take them back and bring the guns back with them.

This time on the way back, the two of them weren't blindfolded, so they didn't get carsick, which was a good thing.

Having finally returned to the Yellow River factory, Chen Jianguo's soldiers did not hesitate at all, and went back with their guns, seemingly impatient.

As for Chen Jianguo, he did not leave but stayed for the time being.

"Uncle Chen, are you going to the 27th Army with us?"

Qiu Meizi was quite shocked to learn that Chen Jianguo was going with them to the 27th Army to buy Barrett from Commander Zhao.

Qiu Meizi didn't understand the key point, but the clever Lin Yunhai had already figured it out.

The reason Chen Jianguo was specifically sent to accompany them was probably because they were afraid the two of them would suffer losses when they went to find Commander Zhao.

The insistence on offering the highest price at the time was probably also to create momentum for them.

If Commander Zhao, who is so wealthy, were to offer a price lower than Dong Dawei's, he would surely be ridiculed.

Men, after all, always have some strange competitive spirit in certain aspects.

"The regimental commander told us to go with you. Regimental Commander Zhao is notoriously cunning. If the two of you go alone, you'll definitely get tricked. Let's go."

The distance from Huangsha Town to Huangtuyuan City is much shorter, and they arrived that very evening.

The 27th Army is stationed near the Gulf of Korea and can be considered part of the navy.

However, the navy today is still quite limited, with hardly any advanced ships, only some simple light cruisers, gunboats, and torpedo boats.

Moreover, these items have been in use for a long time, and they were purchased from a red country, so they are already outdated and no longer the most advanced weapons.

With small displacement and a small number of ships, even though Commander Zhao is wealthy, his army only has two light cruisers, which is quite pitiful.

With Chen Jianguo there, they easily entered the 27th Army's garrison area.

However, because it was too far away, they did not see Commander Zhao and were instead arranged to rest in the army.

Unable to sleep, Lin Yunhai went to the dock to get some fresh air.

Looking at the few scattered boats floating on the dock, Lin Yunhai felt a mix of emotions.

China has developed very well in 24 years, and our Type 055 is even more frighteningly large.

Although the government always takes tiny photos of its citizens like it's coaxing a child, its sheer size is beyond the imagination of the Chinese people.

Back then, technology was advanced and there were many entertainment apps. People would complain about the way China took photos on various apps, but what they revealed between the lines was confidence.

For the Dragon Kingdom in a parallel universe to reach this level, it's unknown how many years of arduous journey it would have to take.

But it doesn't matter. Even if his strength is relatively weak, he will not give up. He will cultivate talents and lead the Dragon Kingdom forward step by step.

"What are you thinking about?"

Chen Jianguo noticed that Lin Yunhai was out at the dock late at night instead of sleeping, and he was curious about what Lin Yunhai was thinking.

He always felt that Lin Yunhai was different from others. He was always smiling on the surface, but there was always a kind of sorrow in his eyes.

"I'm thinking that our country is still somewhat backward. Compared with other countries, if a large-scale war really breaks out, we will only be able to be beaten."

A backward nation is vulnerable to attack; this is an indisputable fact.

Before he died in his previous life, the international situation had become very serious, with many countries at war and backward countries having no democracy at all.

The people of those backward countries could only wait in despair for death amidst the flames of war.

Only China, through the efforts of generations, has stood strong and possessed the most advanced weaponry, making the United States hesitant to take direct action and instead resorting to provocations from other countries in its vicinity.

At that time, the Dragon Kingdom had the ability to protect itself, so it didn't have to worry about being attacked.

However, the Dragon Kingdom in this timeline has no ability to protect itself. He worries that if a war of resistance against Japan breaks out here, countless people will die.

Chen Jianguo sat down next to him, patted him on the shoulder and said, "Young man, don't think too much. Everyone is working hard and striving forward. I believe our country will develop step by step and become a force that no one dares to bully."

Their primary purpose as soldiers is to safeguard the peace and security of the country, and they are willing to pay the price with their lives for it.

“I know, but the international situation has become very serious now. I’m worried that those foreign powers won’t be able to wait for us to grow stronger.”

"The Dragon Kingdom is really too weak now."
