On the other hand, Leon solved Krosstaff's problem, and he was almost rested, so he went back to the room to pack his and Sophia's luggage, and prepared to leave the hotel to continue the trip.
Roger saw that the two were about to leave, and hurriedly said, "Mr. Leon, don't you rest for a while?" "
Leon stopped, gave him a strange look, and said, "Is there something wrong with Mr. Roger?" Let's be clear. "
Roger smiled bitterly: "Mr. Leon is really smart, well, let me make it clear, I am not a person who specializes in handling disputes between international friends, I am Mr. Sun Wen's secretary, and I came to contact you on his orders this time." "
Leon put down the suitcase in his hand and said to Roger, "Mr. Sun Wen? I have always respected him very much, is he getting better? "
Lyon actually understood that Mr. Sun Wen's time was running out, and he died this year, on March 12, 1925.
"It's not a secret that Mr. Sun Wen is in very bad health, but he still went to Beijing at the end of December last year to discuss state affairs with his illness. Therefore, I apologize that I cannot see you in person, so please forgive me. Roger said with a sad face and loneliness.
"Hey, I heard that Mr. Sun Wen has served the country all his life. Today, he is seriously ill but still insists on going north, which is really a model for my generation. Leon sighed and said heavily, "I wonder what happened to Mr. asking you to come to me?" I can definitely help! "
Hearing this, Roger looked at Leon excitedly and said, "Please wait for half a day." I'm just a secretary,If you want to ask for help, someone will come to talk to you, as long as you wait for half a day, the person who negotiates with you on behalf of Mr. Sun Wen can arrive here. Thank you Mr. Lyon for his willingness to lend a helping hand at this time. "
Leon smiled and said, "It's okay, I'm not in a hurry." After that, he walked back to the room with his luggage.
Half a day passed quickly.
Leon was reading a book in his room after lunch, when the sound of a car sounded outside the yard. Leon put down the book and walked out the door, a little curious about who could be entrusted by Mr. Sun Wen.
After a while, a person walked into the courtyard led by Roger. Leon was happy as soon as he saw it, and he knew the person who came to him, and it was the chairman of the future generation.
As soon as he saw that Leon had personally greeted him, he hurriedly laughed and went up to shake Leon's hand: "Haha!" General Lyon is really young, and it is a great blessing for your country to have a talent like you. "
Leon automatically ignored his thick accent and said with a Chinese smile: "Winning the prize is just thanks to the love of everyone in the country to take on this great responsibility." "
Jiang was very surprised and said, "Mr. Roger told me a long time ago that your Chinese is very good, and when I saw you today, it was really so." "
Leon waved his hand and said: "Chinese culture is vast and profound, I have only touched a little skin, and there is no comparison with a peerless person like Mr. Then he invited him into his room and talked about what was going on.
After entering the room and sitting down, Leon asked curiously, "I wonder what Mr. is looking for me today?" I will definitely help where I can! "
Jiang was a little embarrassed and said, "It's not a secret, you must know the current situation in my country." Domestic warlords are fighting and industry is backward, and they really do not have the ability to develop and produce advanced weapons to defend against foreign enemies, so can you purchase a batch of weapons from your country? "
Leon was a little puzzled when he heard this, and said: "Purchasing weapons? This is no problem at all, you can contact our relevant officials directly, why bother to come to me? "
Jiang stiffened his head and said: "There was no problem, but we want to blindly purchase and not revive our military industry, so I would like to ask if you can give us technical support while selling us weapons?" Let us copy your weapons in our own countries. "
Leon thought for a while and said: "Yes, but we are also a defeated country, so we can't sell how advanced weapons we can, and the only weapons we can provide you with are Mauser 98 rifles and a small number of MP18 submachine guns, of course, these two weapons we can transfer to you technology." "
Jiang Yi immediately became excited when he heard this, and said, "How many of these two weapons are there?" We can buy them all. "
Leon roughly counted and said: "There are about 300,000 Type 98 rifles in storage, but MP18 is not much, about 3,000 or so superfluous." "
"What about the price?"
"We'll give you $26 for a Type 98 rifle and $90 for an MP18." Leon said sincerely that the price is really very low, almost the cost price, which also includes the money for technology transfer.
Jiang Wenyan silently calculated, the total price was 8.07 million US dollars, not including the money for bullets, he said with a little regret: "Sorry, this price is too high, we don't have so much money, can you guys be cheaper." "
Leon spread his hands helplessly and said: "This is already the lowest price, plus the money for technology transfer, we are almost losing money." Personally, I would very much like to lower the price for you again, but our Congress will not agree. "
"That's a shame." Jiang shook his head, China is indeed poor now.
Leon thought for a while and said, "Actually, I have another way, you can use ore to mortgage a part of the payment." "
"What ore?"
"Tungsten ore, iron ore, aluminum ore, etc., we all need it."
Jiang Yi became excited when he heard it, although China lacks money, but the last thing it lacks is these ores.
Lyon's method of payment was very satisfactory to both sides, and the two tentatively agreed that the Chinese side would convert the international prices of various ores into US dollars at that time to pay for the purchase of weapons and ammunition.
Both sides were satisfied, the Chinese side received the coveted weapons and technology, and Lyon received the various resources that Germany lacked, which in the near future will be used to build a large number of aircraft and tanks, allowing Germany to return to the position of European hegemon.
After signing the contract, Leon said goodbye to everyone and took Sophia to continue the trip.
They planned to stay in China for 7 days, and after this series of events, two days had passed, but fortunately it was not far from the destination, and the remaining half afternoon was enough to reach the small city.
When he arrived at the train station, a special train was already waiting here, which the Chinese side specially prepared for him in order to thank Lyon for his help.
Lyon couldn't get rid of it, so he had to accept the good intentions of the Chinese side and get on the train. After more than two hours of bumps, Lyon and his party arrived at the train station in the town before dinner.
Several Gestapos who arrived first on the platform had prepared their lodging for Lyon, took the luggage from Leon, and the Gestapos took Lyon in a car to the accommodation.
