Chapter 273 Big Harvest

"Big ship, how big a ship?"

Leonardo came from the exhibition venue to the highest office building of Shuguang Industry, a room with a reception room, a multi-functional area, a desk, a bar, and an office desk. He sat honestly with his hands on his knees and a face on his face. Ask for advice humbly and sincerely.

Xiao Yun said to Leonardo: "How big is the largest ship you can get now?"

"The biggest ship?" Leonardo took out his personal device and looked through it, and then said to Xiao Yun: "The largest ship currently on the black market is only a little over 800 meters long. It is a ship that has been used for almost 20 years. The giant cruise ship of 2007 has been severely aged and has been damaged in many places due to pirate attacks. There is a small port inside that can connect two small ships at the same time. "

"Cruise ship?" Xiao Yun touched his chin and said, "It's okay. It's more than 800 meters long and has at least dozens of floors. I think it's okay. Cruze, what do you think?"

"Let's take a look at the layout first." Cruze shook his head and said, "But engineering ships, armed ships and cargo ships are the best. The internal space is large and it is easy to renovate. It will be very troublesome to renovate a ship like a cruise ship. Although the size is suitable, the The amount of modification work is probably comparable to that of building a new warship."

"Engineering ship, armed ship or cargo ship?" Leonardo consciously repeated Cruze's choice, and then began to choose: "There is a cargo ship that is sixteen years old and 482 meters long. , In fact, large ships like this are not very popular in the black market. People just hang them up and want to quickly find a buyer to ship them. "

"Generally speaking, if there is a need for customization, you will go to a professional shipping company. Only some pirate armed groups will sell these ships through the black market, and the pirate armed forces will be thrown into the black market without any changes. It’s a very low-level one, and is usually handed over to a specialized shipping company to be responsible for the modification and then the accounts are divided proportionally.”

Leonardo said and looked at Xiao Yun and Cruze: "There are many shipping companies in the City of Desire that specialize in this. I can go and find out first."

Xiao Yun asked: "You can't check it directly here?"

Leonardo was a little embarrassed: "No, in order to avoid some situations, my terminal can only log in to the internal network through a private network for easy access."

Cruze could understand what Leonardo said and said: "If you keep things in mind, the requirements of this ship are to be as large and complete as possible, to be able to carry weapons and composite energy, and to have enough room for transformation. It is best to use The main choice is engineering ships and warships, and the second choice is cargo ships. There is no need to consider cruise ships. The internal space must be regular and the structure cannot be too complicated.”

Leonardo asked: "Can you tell me what you are going to use this ship for?"

Cruze said calmly: "Mobile base factory, you don't need to ask about other things. It's not good for you to know too much. Shuguang Industry and Alejandro's secret industry are not making enough profits now. Shut up." ."

Leonardo pulled his mouth and made a "shut up" gesture. It was hard to imagine that such a fierce man could make such a stupid and cute gesture, but in fact Leonardo was really a little scared. , with a look of fear and satisfaction.

Leonardo is very satisfied with what he got from Xiao Yun and the others. Now he has a stronger body than before, and he has received a considerable dividend from Alejandro. , making money and gaining power, what else is there to be dissatisfied about? The only thing is to pay for some small freedoms. These things are not important to him at all. The little he pays as long as he does not betray Xiao Yun That would be equivalent to not giving at all.

Leonardo's mind was racing: "There is a ship that seems suitable. It's an aircraft carrier."

Cruze motioned for Leonardo to continue, and Leonardo said: "There was a rebellion within TMC a few years ago. A large command transport flagship of TMC was destroyed and left behind wreckage. I have seen the main body of the data and it's pretty good. It is in good condition but needs major repairs, but now there is only one shelf left and the contents have been removed by TMC.”

"This ship should meet your requirements, but this ship is handled by TMC's affiliates. Without TMC, others cannot buy it. Is it possible to use this opportunity to get the ship from TMC? "

Xiao Yun and Cruze looked at each other, this is actually a good thing.

Xiao Yun asked: "Is there only one shelf left?"

Leonardo understood what Xiao Yun meant and said: "If you want to buy it, if you pay a little more, they will definitely be willing to help us repair it first and replace the missing equipment with civilian ones."

Cruze said: "If that's the case, it wouldn't be bad. It's big or small."

Leonardo said: "TMC's main battleship Koos is more than 600 meters long. This Titan-class flagship is 1.1 kilometers long and nearly 350 meters when fully expanded at its widest point. But there is no way to land in the atmosphere, and I estimate After the negotiation is completed, it will take at least two or three months to deliver it. "

Kruse said: "It's enough to use it as a mobile base, but in this case it can only be marked with the Sugon Industrial logo. The key is why we, an emerging company, would buy such a ship?"

"It's too high-profile, but I like it." Xiao Yun waved his hand and said to Leonardo: "You can always pay attention to the situation of this ship and buy it in the name of Shuguang Industry. By the way, see who has it. Do you know that the Koos class for sale is the first priority but cannot be purchased in the name of Sugon Industries?"

Leonardo nodded in understanding.

Xiao Yun waved his hand: "Go and help Gina promote Shuguang Industrial's products as much as possible. Anyway, the bigger the order, the more you will gain."

"I understand." Leonardo nodded repeatedly, stood up and left quickly, looking eager to become a qualified businessman.

When Leonardo left, Cruze said: "The meaning of buying that flagship is just a decoration with no practical value."

Xiao Yun shrugged: "It can't always be a decoration. In the short term, we have no way to get this kind of kilometer-level warship. I think it may not even have the chance to be a decoration in the short term, but it is better to be prepared than not to have it. Maybe it will be useful after the modification is completed."

Cruzet shook his head: "As long as you are happy."

On the other side, after the actual combat test and target test, the T-type body immediately caused a heated discussion among the guests who came to watch. After confirming the effect of the treatment cabin, the people who came were very glad that they came to the scene today. They stared at Gina, the owner, with red eyes, wishing to take Gina away and talk about the next thing.

Reni was invited by Leonardo, but TMC was not the only one who came. A major general from the TMC Border Space Logistics Headquarters also attended the exhibition and was the most distinguished one among all the guests. Such a senior TMC official appeared here purely because Leonardo gave him a lot of money.

If Chimera did not have connections in all aspects in the Border Space, it would not be possible to run the Black Market Star of the City of Desire safely. Not to mention how deep the relationship is, but at least it can talk to TMC. Maybe a senior executive of TMC is also one of the shareholders behind the City of Desire.

So it was not particularly troublesome for Leonardo to invite such a person. Giving him some money was just as a travel fee and tea fee. He had already given the other party some basic information as bait in advance, especially the treatment cabin, which would naturally attract the other party to come in person.

But after Gina finished displaying the product, the major general's eyes lit up and he immediately asked his men to contact him. Not long after, Gina invited him to a separate reception room for a detailed discussion.

During the discussion, a man came and whispered something in Gina's ear. After Gina said he understood, the man walked out and did not affect the conversation with Major General TMC.

In the next few days, Gina was very busy. He took some people to visit the factory of Shuguang Industry to show more equipment used by the T series body. Batches of orders were also finalized, but compared with the T series body, the treatment cabin was more popular.

Some people want not only goods but also agency rights. The scope of the universe that humans have set foot on is so large that Shuguang Industry cannot dominate the entire market. In this way, the existence of agents is very necessary. They can sell Shuguang Industry's products to other places.

Moreover, those who are qualified to become agents for cross-universe transactions also have various relationships. In this way, most of the downstream component procurement of the T series body has been finalized, and a huge amount of funds have been obtained without paying a penny.

Leonardo was also very busy, busy patting his chest and agreeing to orders for treatment cabins or T-series aircraft of all sizes, and also trying to find ways to continue to help Shuguang Industrial expand its production capacity. This behavior of taking on so much also made many people see that Leonardo definitely had shares in Shuguang Industrial, and he was definitely lucky.

But TMC's purchases were obviously much more cautious. The logistics major general only ordered a batch of treatment cabins and then stayed in the City of Desire until a TMC ship stopped near Chimera and sent two transport ships to deliver a group of people. After another half-month of testing, it finally signed an order and agreement with Shuguang Industrial.

The content of the agreement includes many aspects, and the specific terms were also negotiated by Gina. It is roughly that Shuguang Industrial will be protected by TMC in the future, and Shuguang Industrial will also become one of the weapons suppliers in the border space of TMC. Except for the F-series aircraft purchased by TMC, the aircraft purchased by other parties must be weakened in performance. Unless TMC allows, the full-performance version of the aircraft can be sold, and the physical shield will be replaced with a beam shield.

Orders that have been confirmed before the date of the agreement are not within the scope of restrictions. In order to make a distinction, the T series machine body has derived two models. The first is the ordinary armed type of the W series. The single equipment configuration does not match the beam weapon. The backpack specifications are limited to the use of the flight backpack and the performance is reduced to a certain extent. The armor is weakened and the appearance is completely changed to a short sword with a Jim head, and the color becomes more bright and conspicuous.

The Y series civilian type is divided into 1 and 2. Type 1 is for ground use and Type 2 is for space use. The general-purpose mecha for workers and farmers is further weakened and turned into foam armor. In the middle, Xiao Yun returned to the SEED world and dealt with this matter specifically. He obtained the reform plan of the waste merchant guild and the civilian space type and the corresponding equipment design from the Shuguang Society.

It was also at this time that Xiao Yun realized how big the Shuguang Society's business is now. No wonder it has always been a posture of not lacking money. Even the test machine is played by several branches. There is no need to panic when there is too much money. It may not be shown too much in the animation, but in the SEED world, the sales of the civilian type heretic is really the first.

And directly purchased the first batch of 200 T-type mechas and various related supporting equipment. After seeing the produced mechas, TMC directly set a delivery time of half a month.

These are all small matters. Gina will definitely agree to do what should be done on the surface, and what should be done in the invisible places.

After this round of busy work, it was counted that more than 20 regional agents had been signed. One by one, they circled their own agency areas with maps. Even TMC took the initiative to reach out to the agents of four regions and transferred a penny to the account of Shuguang Industry.

As for the T series mechas, almost 200 units had been sold before the signing, and then TMC ordered another 200 units. After that, major agents successively threw out large orders, and this did not count the shipment of the treatment cabin. As a result, Shuguang Industry had to go all out while continuing to expand the production line, recruiting personnel across the border, and even began to acquire small workshops and companies with certain production capabilities through Leonardo, and directly got on the high-speed train and developed rapidly.

Gina is really experienced in this area. After all, he was in charge of the Shuguang Society before. He arranged all matters in an orderly manner and Xiao Yun didn't need to intervene. All matters such as procurement, logistics and security were arranged and managed by Gina every day. However, he was a little unhappy to see that the T-type aircraft made with the G series as a sample became TMC's military aircraft, while the heretic he led to develop eventually became a civilian aircraft.

At the same time, Gina also negotiated with TMC to purchase the damaged Titan-class ship, which was only an empty frame and all the military equipment was dismantled. TMC agreed to sell the ship to Shuguang Industry and generously granted permission to arm the ship.

TMC probably knew that it was useless whether they allowed it or not. There were so many things they didn't allow, and there were still many forces that didn't admit it at all. They couldn't control such things. It was just that the ship was theirs after all, and even if they didn't sell it, they could get the ship from other places based on the development of Shuguang Industry.

If they repaired a ship that was no longer suitable for military combat and even had its main frame damaged and sold it to Shuguang Industry, they could get a sum of money back. This business would definitely work.
