I play Red Alert in Yuanshin

Chapter 57 Eating Tofu Was Discovered? (One update~)

In the following time, in addition to discussing matters with the Knights every day, Shi Chen also added a new project.

That is to find Barbara to treat tiredness at night, and the small life is still quite comfortable.

On May 5th, Shi Chen finally negotiated with the Knights on the terms of cooperation that both sides are satisfied with.

Except for those fragmentary trade alliances and military alliance clauses.

The most important thing is an article called maintaining law and order in the Mond area, and a project cooperation for the construction of a military camp.

The details of the first clause are that Mond will pay the Republic 500 million moras every month as "assistance city defense fee".

The name is a bit of a mouthful, but to put it more bluntly, it is the protection fee, plus buying peace.

The Republic needs to station a regiment of troops near Mond. This regiment needs to be dispatched by the Knights in a short period of time when the city of Mond is in danger, and help the Knights defend the city of Mond.

As far as the Knights are concerned, it only costs 500 million Mora a month to have a well-trained and fully armed combat group of nearly 1000 people. The cost is at least 20 billion moras. Compared with the monthly protection fee of 500 million moras, this establishment cost is not too cost-effective.

As far as Shichen is concerned, if someone can help him raise an army, and he can send a regiment of troops to garrison near Mond City in an open and honest manner, why not do it?

You must know that he now has nearly 2500 people under his command, including pilots, tank drivers, and warship drivers.

Usually, Shichen only needs to exchange funds for some food, and their food, drink, and housing bases can satisfy them.

But the desire of the soldiers is not just as simple as eating and drinking, they also have consumption needs.

There was no Mora for them in the previous morning, but now it is natural to meet the needs of the soldiers.

The standard of salary distribution is based on the level of military rank.

At the highest rank, he can receive 5000 moras a month, and soldiers with the lowest rank can also receive 500 moras a month.Of course, this salary is only for Mora, and they will also receive the red police coins issued to them by Shichen.

The Red Police Coin is directly linked to the funds of the base. Shichen will use the funds to purchase some daily necessities from the system. Soldiers can directly use the Red Police Coin to buy what they want.

According to calculations in the morning, 2500 people need to consume at least 2500 funds every month.

This amount of money is nothing compared to the daily income of ore refineries and oil fields.

But Shichen did the math and found out that the weapons and equipment the system sold him were really cheap from his grandma!

The monthly consumption of 2500 people plus their salaries can buy ten Rhino tanks.

Buying equipment is not expensive, what is expensive is raising an army.

Even Shi Chen had to sigh with emotion: "Selling arms is the only way out, this is the real profitable business."

The good news is that Qin said during the negotiation with Shichen this month.

The Zephyr Knights intend to purchase 25 Grizzly tanks, 10 Nighthawk helicopters, 9 Intruder fighters, and supporting missiles and fuel, etc., with a total order of 10 billion moras.

This order is planned to be completed within the next year.

At this time, the door is wide open to welcome Mond to purchase.

Mond is off to a good start for the Republic.

When Shichen went to Liyue, Liyue's Seven Stars learned that Mond had purchased so much equipment, and they would definitely go to the Republic to buy it.

Whether it is from the perspective of national defense or international influence and so on.

Shichen didn't believe that Liyue didn't buy it.

The construction of another military camp is a cooperative project. Specifically, the Republic needs to help the Zephyr Knights build military camps in the area around Mond.

This includes building base walls, sentry guns, radars, and more.

The current project contract signed by the two parties is to help build 15 military camps, which need to be equipped with two sentry guns, an area radar, and a fully enclosed wall. The construction price of a camp is 800 million moras, involving 1.2 million moras transaction.

During the chat, Shichen learned that Qin intends to build these camps at the various confidential passages of Mond, firstly to protect the passing merchants, and secondly to protect Mond's safety and increase Mond's military strength.

For this reason, Qin is going to park at least two Zephyr tanks in each camp for protection.

It is worth mentioning that Jean also plans to purchase rocket jetpacks.

Shi Chen also happily gave Qin a castrated version.

Compared with the perfect backpack that can fly 200km in one flight.

Shichen gave a castrated version with a battery life of 30km, a maximum speed of 120km/h, and a maximum flight altitude of 2000m, and it did not include an attack system.

The price of a backpack is 35 moras, and Shichen's manufacturing cost is only 5 moras, which is nearly six times the profit. Selling one is a blood profit.

That's it, Qin still purchased 100 at a time.

With tears in his eyes, Shi Chen put the money into his pocket: "Sure enough, I still make money by selling arms. I made billions of moras in one go."

After the contract is finalized, it is the performance of the contract.

At noon, Qin invited Shichen to have a light meal alone. The two sat opposite each other in the Knights' cafeteria. The surrounding knights consciously avoided this pair, and no one sat in the circle around the two.

"Captain Qin, you seem to be worried, have you encountered any problems?"

Qin raised her head, wondering if she could talk about it.

Shi Chen waited for a while before Qin sighed softly and said, "It's actually about Cardinal Simon."

"Is that your and Barbara's father?"

"That's right." Qin nodded, "In the past two days, the cardinal came to me to complain, saying that Barbara came home very late every night during this time, and asked her where she had been, but she faltered and said no. Come up."

"Pfft, cough cough." Shi Chen almost spat out.

Qin asked suspiciously, "What's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, it's okay." Shi Chen wiped his mouth with a tissue, and made an excuse casually, "Sorry, I didn't expect your father to sue you."

Speaking of this, Qin sighed again: "The cardinal said that he found that Barbara was staying with a boy every day recently, and he hoped that I would send knights to arrest him and interrogate him."

"How is this possible!" Shi Chen directly refused.

What if you arrest me?
While discussing cooperation with the acting leader who is the older sister during the day, at night he finds the idol Mond who is the younger sister to heal his fatigue.

If this is discovered, although nothing will happen, it won't sound good to say it.

"That's right, it's really not possible." Qin nodded with deep understanding, "I heard from the cardinal's description, that boy didn't do anything wrong. It is impossible for the Knights to arrest a civilian for no reason."

Shi Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and he said, "That's right, besides, Barbara is also an 18-year-old adult, she must know what she is doing, as long as there is no danger and does not endanger Mond, wouldn't it be fine?"

"Indeed, but I think as a sister, I still have some obligation to meet that boy, what do you think?"

"Me? I don't think it's necessary!"
