Rebirth of the Flying Era

Hearing Li Yuanchao cry about poverty, Du Fei laughed and said: "You are not very kind. Others don't know, and I don't know, but your jade market is making a fortune every day!"

Li Yuanchao also laughed: "Thanks to you, boss Zheng was really powerful last time. He gave me 100 million Hong Kong dollars when he came."

Du Fei knew that he was talking about Zheng Tong.

Last time Zheng Tong was willing to side with Du Fei and even helped Du Fei fish with his reputation. What was his purpose?

I just want to connect directly with Li Yuanchao.

Of course Du Fei reciprocated and helped him make connections.

Zheng Tong also gave him enough face and personally brought people to Li Yuanchao's territory and directly signed a five-year contract.

It is agreed that the jadeite mineral materials purchased in Liyuanchao will be no less than 20 million Hong Kong dollars every year, which will be 100 million Hong Kong dollars in five years.

In fact, even if the Zheng family is the leader in the jewelry industry in Xiangjiang, they cannot consume so much jadeite minerals every year.

The reason why I spent so much money in one go was to show my strength and also to invest.

If you buy these jadeite minerals and save them, they will only become more valuable in the future.

At the same time, it also solved Li Yuanchao's urgent need and received a big favor for nothing.

Du Fei became more serious: "To aid the DPRK, where you are, the terrain is complex, with many mountains and forests, and it is difficult to deploy too many tanks. But... you don't go there to be the king of the mountain, you want to attack A city cannot be conquered without heavy weapons."

Li Yuanchao also put away his smile, picked up the tea cup and took a sip: "Brother Du, tell me the truth about our tank... what is going on?"

Li Yuanchao was born as a general. He rode in a tank when he was eleven or twelve years old and knew what the T62 was.

In the first half of the year, a total of two vehicles were seized. One was in the hands of Du Fei, and the other was transported to the logistics department. Several units were organized to dismantle and study it. After working for more than half a year, only a few reports were produced.

Du Fei, however, took out all the prototype cars, and he couldn't help but feel unsure.

Du Fei smiled and said: "In support of Korea, hearing is believing, seeing is believing. In just a few days, I will be testing at a venue in the western suburbs. You will know if you come and see me."

Li Yuanchao was a little surprised by Du Fei's confidence.

He simply showed off his cards and said: "Brother Du, to be honest, I came back this time just for the tanks. What you just said is right. If we want to continue to develop, we must not stay in the mountains. As the strongest assault equipment, tanks are at the critical moment. It can finalize the decision. I originally wanted to get some Type 59s, but the number doesn’t need to be large, just eight of ten will be enough.”

In fact, Du Fei had already guessed that Li Yuanchao would make big moves next year.

After all, what Zheng Tong gave was real money and silver. Li Yuanchao could not let the money go to the bottom of the box. The only real thing was to convert it into strength and territory as soon as possible.

Now, although after half a year, things have eased with Su Ge, we still have to be careful.

How can there be any extra tanks for Li to aid Korea at this time?

Only Du Fei is independent from the entire planning system.

However, the copycat version of T62 created by Du Fei is indeed too childish in the eyes of insiders who do not know the inside story.

That's a T62 tank, not a mortar, and it's not a rocket launcher. It was built in a few months. I'm afraid it's not a joke.

However, there was no other way for Li to aid Korea.

If we insist on using his family's connections, it's not impossible to get ten Type 59 tanks.

But the cost of doing so is too high.

At that time, what will the superiors think of the Li family? They only care about their own interests and ignore the overall situation.

So, it goes without saying that this matter was denied by his father.

Du Fei was secretly happy.

Li Yuanchao's order is basically out of reach.

In addition, the Nanyang Huang family is also very promising.

Adding both sides together, the base is twenty vehicles.

With the current personnel and equipment of the tractor factory, once they are familiar with the process, they can only produce ten units per month.

These twenty tanks are enough for two or three months of production.

Next, it depends on whether Prince Airul Alihan and Bati can do anything.

There is also Ka Dazuo, who is also a very potential customer.

Du Fei silently calculated in his mind that if he won these three orders, the scale would be at least 300 units, and the current situation would be maintained without expansion of production, which would be enough for the tractor factory to produce for two or three years.

The profit from a tank is a minimum of US$100,000 per tank.

Three hundred tanks, net profit is 30 million US dollars.

However, after talking about the tank, Li Yuanchao's face became more serious.

When Du Fei saw this, he felt slightly different. Was there something else going on?

Sure enough, Li Yuanchao said in a deep voice: "Brother Du, there is one more thing. I want to ask you for an idea."

"Well, you tell me~" Du Fei nodded.

Although Li Yuanchao has made some achievements outside, he is still considered the number one figure in the northern part of Danguo.

But from the moment he took the first step, Du Fei acted as a spiritual mentor and later provided him with huge financial and logistical help.

Therefore, when faced with difficult problems, Li Yuanchao still hoped to seek Du Fei's advice.

Li Yuanchao said in a deep voice: "Before I came back this time, someone contacted me."

"Who is it?" Du Fei's heart moved. It was obvious that this person's identity was very special.

"Aung Suu Kyi~" Li Yuanchao said a name.

Du Fei frowned, it was her!

He knew this person before she traveled through time, but she should be only twenty-three or four years old now and still studying in Yingguo.

Logically speaking, it should not be related to Li Yuanchao.

Li Yuanchao saw Du Fei's expression and asked, "Have you ever heard of this person?"

Du Fei nodded.

Li Yuanchao didn't expect that Du Fei was really knowledgeable and well-informed, and he knew all these old stories from foreign countries.

Dao Yulan, who was sitting aside, was also secretly surprised.

In the past, when she heard Li Yuanchao talk about Du Fei, she always praised him very highly and felt that he was exaggerating. But today, when she saw him, he actually lived up to his reputation.

Du Fei asked: "Why is she looking for you? Want to cooperate with you?"

Li Yuanchao nodded.

Du Fei smiled: "Yuan Korea, if my estimate is correct, you must have 20,000 to 30,000 people under your command now, right?"

Li Yuanchao didn't hide anything. He shook his head and said, "No, we just carried out a round of elite troops, and there are still 12,000 people left. Two divisions and a direct reinforcement regiment have been organized."

When Li Yuan left for Korea, he brought more than 3,000 people with him.

After several battles, the territory continued to expand.

Especially after occupying the mining area, they will obtain stable financial resources, and the number of people will expand faster, reaching nearly 30,000.

However, Li Yuanchao was very clear-headed and did not pursue great achievements. He only pursued numbers. Instead, he stabilized his troops and began to train troops and eliminate the old and weak. Now the remaining two divisions and one regiment are considered elite divisions.

Even so, equipment was scarce.

When I came back this time, in addition to tanks, I just purchased firearms and mortars to supplement the shortage.

Prepare for the next westward attack on Longken and Pagan.

Although the output of the two jade mines currently owned by Li Yuanchao is not small, they are located on the edge of the mining area.

The real core area is still in the Wulong River Basin in the northwest.

But it's not easy to win here.

There is not only water transportation here, but also railways.

If something happens, troops can be transported directly via railway.

If he really wants to attack here, Li Yuanchao must prepare hard steel officers and soldiers.

Objectively speaking, Li Yuanchao does not yet have this strength.

Li Yuanchao was also very clear-headed, and reducing his troops was also a sign of weakness, indicating that he had no intention of continuing to expand.

Du Fei said: "What does she have? Why should she cooperate with us?"

Li Yuanchao frowned and thought.

Du Fei asked and answered: "She is just claiming a name, but don't forget that her father has been dead for more than 20 years, and there are still a few former disciples and officials who are willing to sell her face. What's more important is...these Nian Aung Suu Kyi lived in Yingguo, and now she suddenly came back and found you..."

Li Yuanchao's heart trembled: "You mean, there are Yingguo people behind her!"

Du Fei said: "I can't rule it out, but it's possible that someone in Yangon has taken a fancy to you. You have to find out the details yourself."

At this point, Du Fei patted Li Yuanchao on the shoulder: "If it's the former, don't ignore her. If it's the latter... we can talk about cooperation."

Li Yuanchao nodded, Du Fei's statement was very similar to his father's.

The night before yesterday, he had just arrived home and discussed this issue with his father.

When I mentioned it to Du Fei again today, the hero had the same opinion.

After sitting for a while, Li Yuanchao and his wife stood up to say goodbye.

Du Fei sent them outside the gate and agreed to go home to see Zhu Ting and Xiao Zhengze at night before leaving.

Du Fei stood on the steps and watched as Li Yuanchao rode a bicycle carrying Dao Yulan.

It was impossible to tell that this young man was already a powerful warlord.

However, Li Yuanchao will also face a real test next.

As the old saying goes, it’s better to have your back against a big tree to enjoy the shade.

It would not be difficult for any one person to achieve Li Yuanchao's current situation under the same conditions.

But that’s basically where it ends.

Considering all aspects, it is impossible for the country to give him more support.

Whether he can go further next depends on whether Li Yuanchao is the material.

The next day, it was eleven o'clock in the morning, and it was almost time for lunch.

Du Fei was called to the tractor factory by a phone call.

As soon as I entered the workshop in a hurry, everyone was already there.

In addition to technicians like Sun Qiwen, Director Yang and Li Mingfei also came over early.

Although Li Mingfei was not in the firefighting equipment company system, the smoothbore cannons that Tan Zhigao was responsible for were basically processed in the steel rolling mill, and Li Mingfei was also curious about the quality of Du Fei's imitation T62.

Du Fei, on the other hand, was the last one to arrive.

Before he came, Sun Qiwen organized people to do a final inspection.

and performed engine ignition.

At least Du Fei is here, don't even light the engine, then the fun will be great.

When Du Fei came back, the 'first' ignition was actually already the second time.

With a burst of movement, the tank's side exhaust pipe spewed out a stream of black smoke.

A tall, energetic worker trotted over and said loudly: "Report, comrade manager, the firefighting tank No. 1 has been successfully started in one go. Please give your instructions!"

Du Fei smiled and responded seriously.

There should always be a sense of ritual.

As for the somewhat weird "Firefighter No. 1", it is the code name of this tank prototype.
