Hello 1983

  Chapter 489 What, what happened? (seeking a monthly ticket)

   "Ahem, Mr. Li, let's study machine tools first." Chief Zhao quickly reminded.

  The old soldier let Liu Qingshan go temporarily, then lowered his head and began to study the list, even drawing on it with a pen.

   Every time one was crossed out, the thin cheeks twitched a few times, as if cutting his own flesh.

  After careful selection for more than an hour, the old soldier said: "No less, no less will not form a complete system."

  Although Director Zhao can’t understand Russian, he can still count. He added up the total price of the selected sets of machine tools:

   "Mr. Li, it's still exceeding the standard. It's more than 1.2 million."

   "I don't care, anyway, this is already the most streamlined, there can be no less."

  The old soldier at the moment is just like an angry child.

  Besides, a middle-aged soldier also sighed: "Speaking of which, these machine tools are really cheap, and they are already the price of cabbage."

  The old soldier also took up the words: "This thing is not about money. If it weren't for this opportunity, you would have nowhere to buy it if you have money, and they wouldn't sell it to you!"

  The chief can't do anything, of course he knows the truth better, but it's like the old saying: A penny beats a hero.

   At this moment, a young voice sounded again: "I can come up with 300,000 US dollars here."

  The gazes of all the people turned to Liu Qingshan.

   "Qingshan, does your company have foreign exchange?"

  Shen Guodong was the first to ask in surprise, if this matter is resolved satisfactorily, then his epaulettes will probably have to be changed.

  Liu Qingshan nodded: "It's not from our company, it's from our Jiapigou Cooperative."

  He didn't dare to say that it was his own. If someone came to borrow Jingzhou from Liu Bei, then he would suffer a lot.

   Even if it is to contribute to the country, there is no reason for individuals to put money into it.

  Chief Zhao was also overjoyed: "Comrade Qingshan, can you lend us the foreign exchange for your cooperative first? Don't worry, the interest will be calculated!"

   "Chief, of course there is no problem, but the interest is ignored, it is all our own."

  Liu Qingshan doesn't care about the interest. Although Longteng Trading Company doesn't seem to get any benefits from this business, he knows it well:

   It is in the greatest interest to have a good relationship with the troops.

  The soldiers in the room were all beaming: This is called sending charcoal in the middle of nowhere,

  The old soldier was the happiest, he happily walked up to Liu Qingshan, raised his hand and patted him on the shoulder:

   "The more I look at you, the more pleasing it is to my eyes. Don't do any business. It's too wasteful. Go to the military school for a few years, and after you come out, follow me."

  Everyone was a little surprised when they heard this: Mr. Li, in the field of military scientific research, is definitely one of the best in China.

   Of course, his temper is also one of the most eccentric.

  Judging from the meaning of his words, it is equivalent to having an apprentice. This young man is really lucky.

  Liu Qingshan was also quite surprised, and quickly explained: "Mr. Li, I'm actually still in high school now."

  The old soldier waved his hand: "That's right, you don't need to go to college, you can go directly to the military academy."

  But Liu Qingshan really didn’t want to be a soldier, so he could only decline:

   "Hey, old man, in fact, doing business can also contribute to the country, isn't it, for example, the current incident, isn't it just an example?"

  Shen Guodong next to him was in a hurry: "Qingshan, Mr. Li..."

  The old soldier raised his palm to stop Shen Guodong's words, and then turned to Liu Qingshan: "Okay, you have kindness, don't regret it."

   "Come on, let's discuss first. I have a bit of a disagreement with what you said about informatization being applied in the military."

   Liu Qingshan looked at the watch on his wrist:

   "Old man, it's already midnight, and we have to negotiate tomorrow."

   "Fortunately, you are still a young man, even worse than an old man like me."

  Old Li muttered in dissatisfaction, and then pointed at Liu Qingshan: "I don't need you to take care of me, an old man. When I was young, I didn't sleep for four days and three nights at most."

  He also saw that Liu Qingshan was full of energy, obviously he didn't want to make this old man stay up all night.

  Liu Qingshan just smiled, and he was full of respect for this kind of old man.

  The next day, Liu Qingshan led Li Xuemei, who was acting as an interpreter, to meet with Sergey again.

   Only this time, beside Liu Qingshan, there were two more people in casual clothes, one was a middle-aged man in his forties, and the other was an old man in his seventies.

   Liu Qingshan said that this is the mechanical expert of their company.

   But Sergey is not easy to be fooled. Just by looking at the behavior of those two people, he knew they were from the army.

  In fact, he is also the same, that kind of temperament is not something you can change easily.

   But his purpose is to sell things, and whoever buys them has nothing to do with him.

  So pretending to be confused, he shook hands with Engineer Zhao and Engineer Li.

   After sitting down and drinking a cup of tea, Liu Qingshan said: "Comrade Sergey, this is the list of equipment we need, but the price needs to be negotiated."

  Sergey took a look and glanced at Liu Qingshan with sharp eyes: "Liu, our current price is already very sincere!"

  Of course Liu Qingshan is also aware of this point. I heard from Mr. Li last night that this is the price of cabbage.

  However, the principle of doing business is to ask for prices and pay back the money on the spot.

  Especially because the other party is sneaky and shady, of course he wants to take the opportunity to kill him.

  So he picked up the teapot with a smile and poured another cup for Sergey:

   "Comrade Sergey, as you once said, this business is just the beginning."

   "In the future, we may need more things, such as Su-27, or T90."

  Since Sergey can cast a long line, then of course Liu Qingshan will also catch big fish, and also ran out a big fragrant bait to the opponent.

   Hearing these words, Engineer Zhao trembled in his heart: Is this possible?

   Needless to say, the Su 27, the 90 tank is also the most advanced main battle tank of the Soviet Union. Although it is occasionally sold to the outside world, it is a simplified version.

   If these things can be obtained, with Huaxia's best ability in magic transformation, it will definitely be able to study clearly, and it will be of inestimable value to the improvement of weapons and equipment.

  Engineer Li was also quite moved when he heard it, but he didn't think so in his heart: Those are the core weapons of others, how can they be sold casually, Xiaoshanzi is still too young.

  He is very optimistic about this young man, and he has a heart of love for talents. Although he calls out "boy boy", he has a kind of care for Liu Qingshan from the elders to the younger generations.

  Sergey squeezed out a smile on his stern face, gently picked up the teacup, and took a sip: "As long as you can afford the price, everything is easy to talk about."

  Those words made the two engineers feel thunder in their hearts, and only the roar of planes and tanks remained in their minds.

  Although Li Xuemei didn't know much about it, she was secretly shocked when she heard it: The boss will not...

  After some haggling, Sergey finally backed down a step, from $1.2 million to $1 million.

  Obviously, Liu Qingshan's bait also made him quite tempted.

  Five sets of large machine tools cost only one million yuan, which is indeed the price of cabbage.

   You know, when the Soviet Union imported machine tools from Toshiba in the island country, the unit price was 2.7 billion. Although it was in Japanese yen, it was amazing enough.

  Just when Liu Qingshan thought he didn't have to pay for his three hundred thousand dollars, engineer Lao Li immediately picked up the pen again and added two sets on it.

   Yes, don’t worry about it this time.

  The negotiation between the two parties is over, but the next thing is more troublesome. Transportation, handover, inspection, etc., all need to be carefully negotiated.

   This kind of thing obviously cannot be formally declared at customs, and must pass through the border privately.

   Fortunately, both parties have military backgrounds, so they don't have to worry about border issues, as long as they find a remote place, the delivery can be made.

  The original plan was: the other party's truck drove over, and then transferred the goods to the truck prepared by Liu Qingshan and the others.

   It is these large-scale equipment. It is definitely impossible to load and unload without tower cranes.

  But those large loading and unloading tools are only available at the docks of the border defense station.

   This seems to be in an endless loop, and even Sergey is sweating a little.

   At this time, Liu Qingshan finally spoke: "Mr. Sergey, we even need trucks, but these trucks must be second-hand cars, and our company can only exchange them with materials."

  Engineer Zhao's eyes lit up: That's right, when the time comes, you only need to bring more than a hundred soldiers who can drive, and hand over directly to the driver of the other party, which will save trouble.

  Sergey also suddenly realized, and immediately nodded in agreement. The last thing they lack is things like trucks.

  In fact, Liu Qingshan wanted to import a batch of trucks a long time ago, but he never found a way.

   This business will definitely not make any money, and he has no plans to make a fortune from the military.

   If a batch of second-hand large trucks can be obtained, wouldn't there be some room for profit?

  Soviet trucks, like their people, are stupid and thick, relatively resistant to manufacture, and the only disadvantage is that they consume more fuel.

   Not enough is not a problem now, because before the 1990s, China was an oil exporter, and oil prices were not high at all.

  The rest is the specific price of the truck. New Soviet trucks, depending on the model, can be bought here for between 50,000 and 60,000 yuan.

  Since it is second-hand, Liu Qingshan cut the price in half, and if he exchanged it with materials, he would save more than half of the price.

  The final standard is: the price standard of 20 boxes of liquor, buy a big truck.

  Twenty boxes of liquor, for Liu Qingshan, the cost price is only 300 yuan.

   Three hundred yuan for a big truck, no matter what, it’s not a loss, right?

  Finally there is no need to work in vain, Liu Qingshan is also in a good mood, and invites Sergei to Longteng Hotel for a meal.

   But Sergei rejected it. It's better to keep a low profile for this kind of thing.

  After everything was negotiated, Sergey left quietly, and then Engineer Li patted Liu Qingshan on the shoulder:

   "Xiao Shanzi, you are good at bargaining, and you saved 200,000 in one fell swoop!"

  Liu Qingshan muttered in a low voice: "It seems that I didn't save it, and I spent an extra one hundred thousand dollars."

   "Then there are two more sets of machine tools, let alone 300,000, even 3 million can't be bought!" Li Lao started to stare again.

  Engineer Zhao, that is, Chief Zhao, is more concerned about another issue:

   "Comrade Qingshan, can you really get the Su-27 and T90 you mentioned?"

  Liu Qingshan nodded: "Chief, it should be possible. The people over there are all crazy now."

   "To make it perish in advance, you must first make it crazy." Old Li also sighed:

   "Xiao Shanzi, it seems that the upheaval in Eastern Europe you analyzed makes sense."

   After finishing speaking, he turned to Chief Zhao again: "Then hurry up and find foreign exchange, no matter what, you have to get two back!"

  Chief Zhao also smiled wryly: It seems that the top must be alarmed again.

   The matter is of great importance. For the next week, they will live in the barracks, and they will urgently dispatch 120 drivers, all of whom are young and capable soldiers.

  Looking at it, Liu Qingshan's eyes became hot: If I have so many people under my command, how wonderful it would be!

  So he moved his mind: the army will retire a large number of soldiers every year. In addition to some of them who can be assigned jobs, some of them have agricultural household registration, so they can only return to their hometowns to farm.

   If you have a good relationship with the army, can you gather a large number of veterans?

  You must know that soldiers are strictly disciplined, obedient to commands, and of excellent quality. If they have a skill, they are definitely the most ideal employees.

  Now catch up on this line, after the two parties have a good cooperation, everything is easy to discuss.

  March 8th in the solar calendar and the 28th in the first month of the lunar calendar, at noon, Liu Qingshan and others set off in a few jeeps.

  The place they agreed on was just in the upper reaches of the Longjiang River, on the riverside dozens of kilometers away from the Heihe River.

  Before this, there were already more than a dozen covered military vehicles with a famous soldier sitting in them. They set off early and rushed over there.

  Among these fighters, there are heavily armed border guards, and there are also drivers in civilian clothes.

  Liu Qingshan and his group are mainly technicians responsible for inspecting and accepting goods and the heads of the troops.

  Liu Qingshan took his pioneer car and followed at the end of the convoy.

  Of course it can’t be the last, there are two patrol cars behind, responsible for guarding.

  After driving for more than 20 miles, a patrol car caught up with the jeep of several chiefs, and reported something while driving.

   What, what happened?

  Liu Qingshan doesn't want to come up with any fools.

  This transaction is beneficial to the country in terms of the overall situation, but in terms of small profits, it is also related to Liu Qingshan's income of several million.

   Soon got the news from Shen Guodong: "There is a jeep following behind!"

  The situation immediately became serious. Such a secret operation must not be leaked.

  At the same time, five or six miles away from the convoy, there was a jeep following slowly.

  In broad daylight, there are several rows of wheel marks on the snow field, so there is no need to worry about losing track.

  Wang Qiang was driving, and Xie Hongri, An Chunfeng and others were also sitting in the car.

   "It's a desolate place, and they are still marching along the river. They must be trying to smuggle goods. Now we caught them, haha!"

  Wang Qiang clenched the steering wheel, and let out a hearty laugh.

  It seems that he wants to release all the depression accumulated these days.
