Chapter 799 Salute to Chief Gu!
After reaching an agreement on the exchange of core resources, subsequent negotiations went very smoothly.
First, the Night Province Military Region proposed the "Crystal Core-Equipment" trade ratio with the Southern Theater:
500 zombie brain cores = 1 ton of military supplies
The system's exchange price for supplies is 500 gold coins for 1 ton of combat supplies. According to this ratio, Gu Chengyuan only made a 10-fold profit from the Southern War Zone.
Gu Chengyuan originally wanted to earn more, but considering that he couldn't fish out all the fish, he chose a more moderate number in the final ratio.
Ten times, they will not suffer any loss, and the southern theater will also be able to obtain sufficient ammunition supplies.
Win-win!
Upon hearing this ratio, the representatives of the Southern Theater, who had thought their ratio would be drastically cut, were pleasantly surprised!
500 zombie brain cores can be exchanged for 1 ton of combat supplies?
How much are 500 zombie brain cores? At most, they can fill a standard bullet box, and if converted into ammunition, that's nearly 60 rounds, more than boxes of bullets!
The overwhelming joy overwhelmed the Southern Theater representatives present, and they no longer had time to think about whether the Ye Province Military District was helping to alleviate poverty, or whether the crystal cores were really that valuable!
Now their minds are filled with thoughts about how much combat supplies they can exchange for the brain cores in their own stockpile!
Tens of millions of brain cores, at least 2 tons as a base!
If all of them were replaced with weapons and ammunition, these 2 tons of combat supplies could arm about 15 to 20 light infantry at one time, which would be enough for the Southern Theater to organize a large-scale battle at the army level!
This is not just a matter of allowing the Southern Theater to gain higher fault tolerance, but also a chance to get the snowball rolling!
Of course, the premise of all this is that the activity of exchanging crystal cores for equipment is always there!
This reminded Xu Hao, deputy commander of the Southern Theater, of the web game his grandson played before the end of the world, where killing enemies would give away equipment...
Thinking of this, I suddenly felt that the zombie mutants were not so disgusting, and they were even a bit cute!
They are all walking weapons and ammunition!
Thinking of this, the representatives on the scene in the Southern War Zone immediately became excited and wished they could fly back immediately to organize a few major battles!
The thought of letting those weapons and ammunition linger on the streets or in the sea for even one more second made me feel like I was committing a heinous crime!
Therefore, the Southern Theater delegation, fearing that the Ye Province Military District would go back on its word, placed an order for 1000 million crystal cores on the spot!
The reason why they only set the amount at 10 million was, of course, not because there were only 10 million in the warehouse, but because they were afraid that if they took too much at once, it would scare the Ye Province Military Region.
We can't just drain the pond to catch all the fish, but we need to take it slow and steady!
...
Just like that, in a friendly atmosphere where both sides were looking forward to a long-term relationship, the first "crystal core-equipment" trade contract between the Ye Province Military Region and the Southern Theater Command was signed.
The contract stipulates:
The Southern Theater Command will provide 1000 million crystal cores as payment to the Night Province Military District by air, while the Night Province Military District will provide 2 tons of military supplies to the Southern Theater Command in batches by auxiliary transportation.
To show sincerity, the Southern Theater Command will pay the full amount in advance, and the goods from the Night Province Military District can be shipped slowly in batches due to transportation capacity.
Gu Chengyuan naturally wanted this very much!
The sooner the crystal core is delivered, the sooner I can upgrade the system!
1 million dollars! ! Isn’t this wave going to take off immediately?
There is definitely enough money to cover the war zone, and there is even some money left over to set up an air force.
Cool!!! (On-site military boxing)
I've been a major general for so long that I'm really tired of it. It's time to become a theater commander!
Thinking of this, Gu Chengyuan, in a good mood, then reached a cooperation agreement with the other party to jointly develop railway freight routes.
The Ye Province Military Region promised that after the crystal cores were transported in place, it would work with the Southern Theater Command to jointly develop and maintain each other's railway transportation routes, namely: the Ye Province Night Market - Guangdong Province Zhanjiang City railway transportation route.
This is a section of railway that spans three provinces: Ye Province, Xiguang Province, and Guangdong Province, with an estimated total length of about 3000 kilometers.
During the discussion on the cooperative development of railways, the Southern Theater Command took the initiative to take over the railway development task in the third province outside their respective provinces - Xiguan Province.
The reason for this is naturally because the purpose of building the railway is for the southern war zone, so there is no place for the Ye Province Military Region to be the main force.
So when talking about this, Xu Hao, deputy commander of the Southern Theater Command, took the initiative to say at the meeting:
"The Southern Theater Command can take charge of the sections in Guangdong and Western Guangdong provinces, and the Ye Province Military District only needs to be responsible for the railways in this province."
However, Gu Chengyuan resolutely refused after hearing this, and said that the railway in Xiguang Province must be under the responsibility of the Ye Province Military Region. He said righteously:
"The end of the world is a disaster shared by all mankind. Fighting the end of the world and restoring our homeland is the duty and mission of every unit in Zhoubang!"
"As the saying goes, those who are capable should do more work. When the country is in danger, it doesn't matter who you are!"
"Therefore, taking into full consideration the current situation and difficulties of the Southern Theater, the Ye Province Military Region should and must take responsibility and become a responsible people's army!"
Pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa pa~~~
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience burst into thunderous applause!
The representatives of the Southern Theater Command, led by Deputy Commander Xu Hao, all stood up and stood solemnly!
It’s the righteous cause of Chief Gu!
Apart from this sentence, they really don't know how to describe Chief Gu of the Ye Province Military District!
You have to know that what the other party said is not just a simple lip service, it requires the deployment of massive troops and war supplies!
In the end times, both troops and equipment are extremely valuable resources. Who would complain about having too much? Especially when they are used for other people's business!
However, Gu Chengyuan, Chief Gu...acted without any selfish motives!
After considering the current predicament faced by the Southern Theater Command, he actually took the initiative to assume this responsibility which did not belong to the Ye Province Military Region.
So
Apart from one sentence, "Chief Gu is serving the righteous cause!", the leaders of the Southern Theater Command present really didn't know what to say.
"salute!"
As an emotional and moving command sounded in the conference room, Xu Hao, deputy commander of the Southern Theater Command, directly led the on-site participants of the Southern Theater Command and saluted Gu Chengyuan in unison!
A friend in need is a friend indeed; loyalty and treachery are revealed in national crisis!
At this moment, in the eyes of Xu Hao, deputy commander of the Southern Theater Command, it no longer matters which faction or who Commander Gu opposite him belongs to!
What’s important is that this is a great patriot, savior and noble soul who is above vulgarity!
It was he who used his own actions to tell everyone present what it meant to be selfless, what it meant to serve the country and the people, and what it meant to devote one's life to the country!
