This One's a Real Expert!

Faced with Li Yao's questioning, Hua Ge calmly replied, "I know about the matter you mentioned, but the situation is different."

That technology resale was actually an exchange of political interests.

and,

What was sold domestically that time was only the "Complete Bullet Assembly Line": ammunition assembly is the last step in the bullet production process and a crucial step that ultimately determines the quality of bullets.

In particular, it involves the assembly of Primers and propellants.

A slight oversight

This would result in a large amount of waste or major safety accidents.

Therefore, special attention needs to be paid to quality and safety First Rank of production.

Other components, such as the Percussion Cap, propellant, and the metal composition of the Cartridge Case and projectile, as well as the stamping process, are not included. However, the production line that Hua Ge found for Li Yao includes these processes.

certainly,

The propellant and Percussion Cap only have the formula; the raw materials need to be prepared by ourselves, or we can buy them from those suppliers.

Finally, Hua Ge concluded. "So 26 million is not an exaggeration. In the US in 1978, the price of a single line of equipment was 3.6 million US dollars. Later, due to the aging of the equipment, the investment and maintenance costs alone reached 242 million US dollars. In comparison, this old production line is already very cheap."

Li Yao: "..."

very good,

Boss Li was persuaded.

Hua Ge glanced at the drink Wei Dadong had mixed, clicked his tongue, and ultimately didn't dare to take a second sip. He picked up a glass of water, took a sip, and continued, "This is just the price for the bullet production line. The remaining Hand Grenade Production Line, plus the Gun Lathe Production Line, are bundled together for 12 million. All production lines come with detailed instruction manuals and one delivery maintenance."

"Oh, right."

Hua Ge reminded him, "This doesn't even include my agency fee, shipping fee, and inspection fee."

Li Yao gasped, feeling a slight pain in his chest.

He used to think Hua Ge was quite refined and pleasing to the eye, but now he sees him as nothing more than a shrewd beast! He'll slowly and methodically stab you in the back.

It will make you bleed!

Master

This guy's a pro! Li Yao pursed his lips and said, "Then I'll entrust all these matters to you. Where will the goods be delivered?"

Hua Ge said, "There are quite a few people doing this kind of business in Outer Mongolia."

Oh, that Outer Mongolia that possesses the strength of the Seven Warlords of the Sea and is the world's number one navy.

That said, this country is quite interesting.

Completely surrounded by the world's two greatest powers, one of its purposes is simply to serve as a strategic buffer zone. In its early stages of development, it enjoyed several prosperous years by trading minerals. However, problems such as rigid social classes, deindustrialization, and a single-industry structure have led to a decline in its economy in recent years, making it seem increasingly doomed.

After failing to find a suitable ally in Northern Russia, they turned to the United States.

Domestic bureaucratic corruption.

But it's also a fact that we're getting poorer.

never mind,

None of that matters.

Li Yao asked, "Set up a warehouse over there and arrange everything. I'll go pick up the goods myself later."

so,

That would save on shipping costs! Thinking about this,

Li Yao felt that he was a model of managing a household!

After discussing the details, Hua Ge said, "Then Boss Li, please pay a deposit first, and I'll handle the arrangements. My commission will be calculated later."

Li Yao asked, "How is Hua Ge's commission calculated?"

Hua Ge: "I'll take five percent of the total transaction price from both sides."

Li Yao: "..."

Okay,

He knew that Hua Ge was an open and honest person.

The total transaction price was around 40 million, and Hua Ge's involvement alone netted him 4 million.

certainly,

That someone can find the channels and get things done is a skill! And in today's world, skill is the most valuable thing.

Back in 2004, the movie "A World Without Thieves" said—what's the most valuable thing in the 21st century? Talent!

Without a doubt, Hua Ge is a talent! Everyone says that housing prices are at their highest now, but ultimately it's all caused by people.

Look at Hua Ge, he just casually made a move and he got a house in the provincial capital.

and,

They definitely own more than one house!

Having finished discussing the important matters,

Li Yao and Hua Ge chatted casually. When the topic turned to investment, Li Yao mentioned that he was working on the women's cosmetics market.

Hua Ge praised Li Yao for his insightful remarks, which made Li Yao feel very pleased!

However, this is also true. In today's consumer chain, women's consumption ranks first, followed by infant and toddler products and youth education, then pet-related industries, and finally the adult male market.

Then they talked about the housing market.

Hua Ge sighed, "It's a complete mess here; it's like draining the pond to catch all the fish."

Even the rapid development trend in China today seems to be overdrawing future potential.

Come to think of it,

What took some developed countries one or two hundred years to complete, we caught up in only a quarter of their time. It looks prosperous and the future is bright.

But Japan was like that back then, and even once dominated its former American "father".

And then what? Didn't they get screwed over by the US and end up with nothing? Look at Japan now.

The country is facing severe aging of its population, a serious labor shortage, a lack of enthusiasm and vitality among the younger generation, and an overly homogeneous workforce—aside from a few opportunistic individuals, the entire nation is beginning to show signs of aging and decline.

Given the example of Japan, perhaps our path will be different? Who knows?

After chatting about some random things, Hua Ge got up to say goodbye, "Boss, I'm leaving now. I still have a lot of things to do."

Li Yao stood up to see him off. "Take care, and remember to contact me when you've sorted things out."

Hua Ge: "No problem."

After seeing Hua Ge off, Li Yao took out his phone and sent a message to Lin Xiaowei: "I've got the machine tool and production line channels sorted out, but it's a bit large and will take some time to get things running. Be patient."

After sending the message, Li Yao put his phone away at the bar and then shouted to Wei Dadong at the bar counter, "You, come here!"

Wei Dadong, puzzled, asked, "What's wrong, boss?"

Li Yao pointed to his untouched glass of wine on the coffee table and said, "Here, you drink it!"

Wei Dadong was even more confused.

Let's drink!

He picked up his glass and downed the entire glass of wine in one gulp. Wei Dadong, burping and looking confused, asked, "Boss, what's wrong?"

Li Yao: "It's nothing, I was just saying."
