The Weapon Tycoon Who Traveled to Great Qin

The South Korean diplomatic missions arrived in Linzi soon, but the upper class of Qi State thought that they were barbarians and did not receive them immediately, and they treated the diplomatic missions coldly.

Qi State Qi State's own plan. In their view, if the barbarians unite against Yan State, the prestige of Qi State will be greatly compromised. Especially the introduction of foreign races to attack Chinese countries, this kind of method of attracting wolves into the house is very undesirable.

If it does, then Qi will face a major diplomatic crisis. Such a crisis is the loss of the sense of awareness of the Central Plains country in the same ancestry. The loss of this sense of awareness is extremely terrible, and Qi is likely to cause several problems. The fact that the United Nations sent troops to attack together. If formed, Qi will face new pressures.

In this regard, Qi country tried its best to take a cold treatment of the North Korean mission. In fact, Qi State also has its own ability to solve Yan State. The prerequisite is that no country takes intervention measures. However, the export phalanx of Qin's relaxation of arms export restrictions is destined to not let Qi's idea succeed.

The major military factories in Qin State have taken various measures to do everything possible to obtain military weapons orders from Yan State. The weapons they provide range from the latest rifles to submachine guns and machine guns. These weapons are more advanced than those equipped by the Qin army. But Yan Guo was shy in his pocket, although his weapons were good. But all have to spend money. The financially tight state of Yan could not spend a large sum of military expenditure to purchase arms.

Although Yan has a great demand for war weapons. But it does not mean that its procurement of weapons of war is very large. This has a lot to do with the wealth of a country. Yan Guo just lacks such wealth. This wealth is not only the production of gold, but also the growth of national wealth. Wealth needs to be created. At the same time, we must be good at business. Business is very important to a country. The monarch of Yan State lacks this kind of management ability. Not only the Yan Kingdom, but many Warring States countries lacked such management capabilities. They just ask for the wealth of the country blindly, instead of contributing what they should do.

In fact, the largest consumer of Qin's arms comes from Chu, followed by Qi. The military weapons consumption ratios of Chu and Qi are very close. Moreover, the first and second positions of the two countries have been exchanged many times within a month.

The amount of arms purchased by the State of Chu came from private groups. And the amount is very large. Their smallest unit is calculated in hundred. In the State of Chu, the arms trade is a new business. This kind of business is extremely profitable. The arms business has always been in the hands of South Koreans. They reselled arms and weapons from the arms dealers of the State of Qin and sold them to the State of Chu. This price was very expensive. Most of the buyers were nobles. They bought the weapons mainly for the care of the home.

And now, this demand is getting stronger and stronger. The reason is that the influx of weapons is relative. Merchant ships of Chu State can import large quantities of weapons from Qin State ports on a large scale, and these weapons are not only cheap. And the performance is superior. There are also pistols and submachine guns made by Qin Guo's original factory. This gun has strong firepower. Dense bullets can be fired in extreme time. But this demand comes from water pirates.

The water pirates were eager to have an automatic weapon when they were constantly robbing the merchant ships of the State of Qin, especially in the narrow space on the ship to give full play to its firepower advantage. Therefore, the water pirates quickly saw this weapon and bought them in large quantities. For machine guns. They think the cost is still too expensive. The price of a machine gun is as high as one hundred gold. Although it comes with a thousand bullets. The price/performance ratio is still close. Therefore, the water pirates still purchase semi-automatic and automatic weapons such as submachine guns and pistols.

Except for water pirates. There are also merchants among the Chu people. They mostly focused on maintaining their own safety and going out to capture slaves. The object of their battle was the dense jungles of the south. Therefore, the types of weapons they purchase are very diverse. From pistols to rifles. From submachine guns to shotguns. They will buy it on a large scale. And purchased some other powerful weapons. These weapons include yellow security explosives and grenades.

What is strange is that Chu's military purchases are very small. Except that the Chu State Navy purchased fifty water-cooled machine guns. I haven't bought anything yet. This made Qin Guo feel very surprised.

The procurement of military weapons in the state of Chu is mainly the procurement of civil organizations. The procurement of military weapons by Qi is more reflected in the military. Qi imports a large number of weapons from Qin, although his country is also actively using handcrafted workshops to imitate a batch of weapons. However, there is still a big gap in the overall quality of weapons. The best is Linzi, which has two weapons workshops. The weapons manufactured at these two manufacturing sites are almost the same as those manufactured by Qin Guo Machinery except for their serial numbers.

The products made in other regions are purely crude products. These military weapons are unwilling to be used by soldiers of their own country, and their reliability is really bad. Some barrel locking structures often cause bullet jams. This life-threatening practice is really a headache for Qi army soldiers.

Handwork requires a certain technical content. That is the work experience accumulated over a long period of time. What this kind of work experience requires is the accumulation of time. The summary of science and technology can accelerate this accumulation time. Some processing difficulties can also be solved by scientific methods. For example, the number of secrets of the machine tool and so on. Qin's domestic production is solved by this kind of processing. They not only have scientific management methods. There are also the compactness of the machine tool and various processing methods. Qi Guo only relies on the experience of the craftsman. This gap can be clearly seen in mass production.

Moreover, Qi State changed into a large number of military weapons in an extreme period of time. This kind of dressing requires a lot of funds to support, and Qi Guo has such savings. There are financial resources, and there is demand. This allows Qi to become Qin's second largest purchaser of military weapons. Their weapons procurement is done through Koreans. Koreans buy from Qin Guoren at a lower price and then sell. Or the merchants of Qin State were directly involved, but the weapons they bought were not ordinary weapons, but submachine guns. Machine guns, these two weapons, Koreans cannot buy in large quantities. Because Qin merchants monopolized this purchase channel.

The 150,000 troops of the Qi army were replaced with weapons from the State of Qin on a large scale. Except for some stock trap rifles, most of these weapons were new-style long rifles with a rear-pull rotating magazine design. This rifle has an amazing range, reaching a thousand steps. This shooting distance surprised the people of Qi, and because of this, they bought a lot.

But this is not enough. For the Qin State Arms Factory, these arms orders merely maintained their livelihoods. If you want to make money, you have to fight, and fight a big war. Only in this way can you make more money.

But Qin State had no such plans. King Qin, Shang Wen and most of the cabinet members held a long meeting in Xianyang Palace. The content of the talks is to establish a dense transportation network in the Qin State. After the completion of this transportation network, Qin's logistics speed, urban construction speed, and various commercial activities will have a great impact.

"There will be three levels of railway lines in the north. Then three more vertical railway lines will be built, and then the local government will invest in the construction of branch connections between these railways." Meng Yi introduced.

The Qin State first wanted to cover the large-scale railway network in the north with the Yellow River and Yinshan as the starting point. The construction of three vertical and three horizontal railways will cover the entire grassland. In the middle of the railway grid is a dense network of highways and highways. At present, there are already several intermittent railway lines in the north of Qin State. In the next step, Qin State will build such a railway and highway network.

The railway and highway network in the Guanzhong area is currently the most developed area in Qin. However, Qin wanted to extend the role of this section of railway transportation hub. There was only one railway line in the Western Regions, which was caused by the special topography. This cannot be changed.

But the south. But there are many railways to be built. Bashu is the strategic preparation place of the Qin State. Qin Guo has been operating here for several generations. But there is still no railway there. King Qin's meaning is very clear, that is, to build and complete the railway work in Bashu at all costs. But what the special geographical environment there needs is not mechanical equipment, but a large amount of manpower. Qin is currently the most nervous about manpower.

There is no clear calculation of the number of slave deaths. But the number of deaths has always been high. On average, six to three for every ten people die in heavy engineering projects. The high mortality rate resulted in an extremely strong demand for slaves. But Qin currently has no good solution. The northern slave capture ability has dropped to the lowest point in history, and the Huns adopted guerrilla tactics to deal with the Qin army and the Zhao army. They pay attention to protecting their own vitality. Except for some of the mountain people in the east actively sought asylum from the State of Qin, all the others fled to the virgin forests farther away. The Koreans in the south began to take the initiative to move strategically. It has roughly entered the Korean peninsula today.

The south of Qin State is today's Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau. To the west is the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. One is a complex mountainous area, and the other is a high-altitude plateau. The population density of the two places is not high, and it is difficult to exert greater combat effectiveness.

But King Qin would not consider these. He believed that the Western Regions could solve this part of the demand. Shang Wen could only shook his head. For Qin, the Western Regions are too far away. Qin State did not effectively solve the logistics supply problem. It is difficult to further expand the results.

But Chu's merchant armies are helping Qin solve this huge slave demand. Moreover, this demand path has gone through a long time. Moreover, the trade is dominated by slaves. Auxiliary munitions, light industrial products, raw materials, etc. are launched. This trade route started well.
