My girlfriend is from 1949

Chapter 120: Asking for blueprints? Are you crazy? (Seeking monthly votes)

Feng Chaoyang stood by the shelf and immediately smiled warmly when he saw the two people walk in.

"Brother Chen, sister-in-law~!"

These two are his money-making gods; he's made a lot of money with them in the past month.

At this moment, a robust young man was standing next to Feng Chaoyang.

It was Li Hao, the owner of the military surplus store.

The two had arranged to make the deal today, and coincidentally, they both needed Feng Chaoyang's help with something.

So we decided to meet up.

Anyway, the two knew each other; it was Feng Chaoyang who introduced him to buy the bulletproof vest.

The two men were holding a snuff bottle and gesturing with their fingers to discuss the price.

When Li Hao saw the person in question arrive, he couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

I put the snuff bottle back on the shelf.

With a smile, he took out a USB drive: "Brother Chen, these are the military training regulations you requested, including the infantry-tank coordination manual and the militia training manual. I went to great lengths to get them."

It sounds like it's not easy, but these things were all phased out 30 years ago.

If someone in the industry puts in the effort, collecting them isn't difficult.

However, obtaining internal documents and actual training videos is not so easy.

Even by today's standards, it is indeed outdated.

But it's not something that ordinary people can easily obtain.

If we could obtain the newly established world, it would be of immense use.

To modern people, it's something that's outdated from thirty years ago.

However, in the context of the New World 76 years ago, this was advanced experience summarized from decades of global experience.

Its value is immeasurable!

"Thank you for your hard work, Brother Li." Chen Huai'an said politely with a smile, then reached out and took the USB drive, putting it in his pocket.

The two have traded many times before, so I believe the other party wouldn't try to cheat in this kind of thing.

Then, without any haste, he took out a fist-sized, transparent craft box from his bag.

Inside the red recess at the bottom of the box, a Yuan Shikai silver dollar lay quietly.

Feng Chaoyang glanced at it and couldn't help but exclaim, "A Gansu Yuan Shikai silver dollar with added characters!"

The reason they could recognize them at a glance was because of the writing on the silver dollar.

Li Hao was taken aback for a moment, then asked, "Very valuable?"

Although he only had a superficial understanding of antiques.

But they are very good at reading people's expressions and moods.

He can't recognize its value, but someone else can.

Judging from Boss Feng's reaction, this Yuan Shikai silver dollar must be quite valuable.

He still trusted Boss Feng's judgment.

At least in the world of antiques, there are very few that he wouldn't recognize.

Feng Chaoyang took the box and examined the Yuan Shikai silver dollar closely.

He explained in a low voice, "The Gansu-added Yuan Shikai silver dollar is a rare variety from the third year of the Republic of China, and it's the only Yuan Shikai silver dollar with a place name attached."

Currently, the market price for a product in average condition is around 12 to 18 yuan, while a product in top condition can fetch over one million yuan at auction.

It was a military pay coin specially minted in Gansu by Feng Yuxiang's troops. Because of its extremely limited quantity, it has become the "King of Northwest Coins" in the collector's circle.

However, this Yuan Shikai silver dollar is not in very good condition and is worth around 10 yuan.

Li Hao's eyes lit up, and a look of joy appeared on his face.

This Yuan Shikai silver dollar was his payment for gathering information.

In other words, he obtained a Gansu Yuan Shikai silver dollar with added characters, worth 100,000 yuan.

Li Hao held it in his hand, grinning from ear to ear.

He even joked, "It's a pity the quality is a bit lacking; it would be great if it were a ninth-grade!"

Feng Chaoyang laughed, "If it really reaches the ninth rank, its value will exceed one million!"

As she spoke, a hint of envy flashed in her eyes.

As a professional shop owner and part-time appraiser, I know all too well the ins and outs of the business.

Very few Yuan Shikai silver dollars with added characters from Gansu have survived to the present day; most of what is on the market are imitations.

Although this piece is in poor condition and its value is greatly reduced, it is still genuine.

We should be content.

Chen Huai'an raised an eyebrow and the corners of his lips involuntarily turned up.

I was just thinking about how to steer the conversation in that direction.

I had just dozed off when a pillow was brought to me.

He said with a smile, "I have a ninth-grade one."

Finding a well-preserved Gansu Yuan Shikai silver dollar with added characters in modern times is no easy feat.

But during the Republic of China era, it was far too easy.

Although Gansu has not yet been liberated, it is not difficult to find a good-quality one in Shanghai.

Li Hao's eyes widened, a look of surprise on his face: "You really have it?"

Feng Chaoyang also looked surprised, secretly thinking, "Customization available? This young man's connections are really something else!"

He knew very well, especially during the past month or so.

At Jiuding Auction House alone, several items worth over 100 million yuan were sold.

This doesn't even include the small, private auctions they often hold.

Although the value is not high, with the most expensive not exceeding ten million, the sheer quantity makes up for it!

I never expected that a casual remark would actually have such an impact.

Li Hao suppressed his excitement, showing great interest in the ninth-grade Gansu Yuan Shikai silver dollar with added characters.

"Brother, are you willing to sell? The price is negotiable!"

"Same as always, let's trade."

"What do you want this time?"

"Complete design blueprints for fighter jets and tanks from the United States and the Soviet Union."

"You...you're insane!"

Li Hao's face turned red with anxiety upon hearing the request.

Those things are all classified; they can't be obtained easily.

He doesn't have that ability yet.

Besides, even if we could actually get our hands on the F-35 blueprints, a million dollars wouldn't even qualify us to take a look at them.

wrong----!

Li Hao blinked, and suddenly grasped the key point.

"You just mentioned the Soviet Union?"

If I remember correctly, that was more than 30 years ago.

Chen Huai'an nodded: "That's right, it's the Soviet Union, or more precisely, those old equipment."

For example, the P-51 Mustang fighter plane and the F-86 jet aircraft, which only entered service in May 1949.

And the Soviet MiG-15, and the MiG-15bis which only entered service at the end of 1950.

"If we could also get our hands on the blueprints for main battle tanks from the same period, that would be even better."

As long as you can get your hands on these blueprints, you can trade with both countries in another time and space.

The foundation of the new world is too weak; even if they have the blueprints, they don't have the ability to produce them.

Even if a factory were built immediately, it would be impossible to manufacture jet fighters before the Korean War.

Therefore, the best solution is to trade with both countries for ready-made goods.

They gave the Soviet blueprints to the United States in exchange for tanks.

They gave the American F-86 blueprints to the Soviet Union in exchange for MiG-15bis fighter jets.

As for the MiG-9, its performance is too poor.

When they gave us this aircraft, it was as if they were just trying to get rid of something they didn't want.

Our pilots encountered many problems while flying this fighter jet.

To shoot down enemy planes, the only option was to tragically crash into them in mid-air.

However, having the blueprints in hand gives you leverage in negotiations.

When the Korean War comes, exchanging the blueprints for the F-86 for the MiG-15bis and providing aid to an aircraft manufacturing plant should not be a problem.

In addition to the blueprints, Chen Huai'an also prepared other methods.

When the time comes, I don't believe the Soviet Union, our big brother, will be able to resist the urge to replace us.
