Chapter 10: The Rise of the Arms Dealer

Dark Small Medium Large Original Scroll to Bottom

It was precisely at this time that the Swedes began their march towards becoming an industrialized nation, ultimately developing, under the leadership of a group of revisionists, into a place that, a century later, would be favored by true communists

The plan involves more than just an engine; its true objective is to become an arms dealer, manufacturing firearms and artillery. Europe is currently gearing up for conflict, and such a favorable opportunity must not be missed

In recent days, this young girl has been quite affected by her Versailles rose, spending her time with a group of like-minded girls either attending classes or lounging in the art studio. Although the results are remarkable, she has also developed a bit of the temperament of a modern artist. In short, she appears somewhat neglectful of her appearance, but her messy hair does lend her a certain endearing charm.

At this time, Sweden is certainly not a favorable place; in fact, Sweden is still far from being an industrial nation in Europe. To put it bluntly, it is even inferior to Russia. In the eyes of countries like England and France, it is considered a typical impoverished backwater. Otherwise, the Nobel family would not have had to go to Russia to develop their endeavors.

"Eric, rest assured, this medication has no side effects, though it should not be used in excess. As for this condom, it is a good thing to avoid trouble." At this moment, Yang Feng explained to the vampire beside him, as it would not be good if he suspected that he was playing the role of a little devil.

If there is any area where assistance is needed, please do not hesitate; I believe I can offer help in many matters here in the UK. The vampire rarely showed a hint of a smile as he spoke.

"Look at this again." Yang Feng said with a sly smile as he took out a small blue pill and handed it to him, speaking in a tone full of temptation: "You can try this tonight, take it half an hour in advance, and then you will know the benefits of this thing."

Similar to steam turbines, aside from Parsons, there seem to be several individuals who hold patents in various forms, some of which only became viable for production many years later. For instance, Laval did not fare as well as Parsons, primarily because the production requirements for his steam turbine were excessively high.

Ah, that is simply wonderful. How can I thank you? There happens to be a ball tonight; would you be willing to be my partner?

However, it is quite difficult to find people who are willing to do such dirty work. Using those foreigners is unreliable, and employing Chinese individuals to do dirty work in Europe is nothing short of a joke. Moreover, in his view, even using Chinese individuals may not necessarily make the foreigners feel at ease.

For instance, the pistol, the Parabellum pistol has yet to be invented, and the Mauser C96 is also absent. Mortars do not exist, and even modern hand grenades are not yet available. As for the Schneider 75, a remarkable piece of equipment, it is even more so. There are only the Maxim and the Gatling guns; there is no sign of any of the others such as the Hotchkiss, Browning, or Lewis. This is simply a treasure trove

The fool, with a beaming smile, snatched it away. The two exchanged glances, sharing a sense of mutual understanding, and then the fool's gaze shifted towards the feminine product.

Do you like it? Here you go! Yang Feng said generously, he still has several boxes of it! This item was quite popular among the wealthy families in Europe and America during the Republic of China era

Swedish steel is indeed a remarkable product, with a quality that is astonishingly high. It is likely that the steel we produced during the Great Leap Forward could not even match the iron ore content of theirs. Isn't it true that Bofors developed based on the quality of its steel? I wonder if it has still been acquired by the old flower | flower | public | son. If he hasn't taken action, then it would be an opportunity not to be missed.

"You can go to Gothenburg, and I will introduce you to my brother. Our family also owns a factory, and my brother understands these matters. You two can collaborate," Lin Luoke said with considerable excitement, filled with hope for the future at the mere thought of it

However, this means that in the United Kingdom, it is impossible to bypass Parsons' patent rights. Although Parsons remains relatively unknown today, his small turbine workshop is managing just adequately, but merely adequately. It is just a small factory valued at only a few tens of thousands of pounds, relying on the production of turbines for some small generators to make a living, while also supporting his exploration of new technologies. However, the distance to becoming a monopoly-level giant is still far off, and it is estimated that even Parsons himself does not harbor such dreams. His success must begin with the Turbinia compelling the Royal Navy, but the Turbinia has not yet been built!

With such financial support, it would be effortless for him to open any type of factory he desires

Curiosity aside, he had no interest in prying into others' backgrounds. For a guest who had contributed no less than 100,000 pounds to his wealth thus far, whether he was a prince or a robber was of no concern to him.

In this era, there are far too many things suitable for him to create, and there are not even automatic pistols, let alone artillery used by the army. Although the quality of the steel is relatively poor, this is by no means a problem for him. Not to mention the modern steel smelting data he has from the - picture - book, even just using the alloy steel from the shuttle can enable him to produce many items

There is a renowned physician who specializes in treating various terminal illnesses, and he is sought after wherever he goes. No one would willingly jeopardize their own life, and no one knows when they might find themselves in his care. After all, whether it is wealth and splendor or power and status, one must have life to enjoy them.

Of course, even if he has already taken action, it is not a big deal; it is merely about opening another one. Nobel spent 1,300,000 Swedish kronor to acquire Bofors, which, to put it bluntly, is just the cost of three aluminum carriages

Upon returning to Jinyuan Company, Boss Yang sat in his office like a schemer, contemplating his next plan. With ample funds now available, coupled with the proceeds from the auction of watches, his wealth had approached £2,000,000. In this era, this constitutes a truly substantial fortune; if converted to gold, it would amount to over ten tons. Moreover, this sum was increasing at a rate of several tens of thousands of pounds daily. With the rising popularity of aluminum alloy jewelry and the mass sale of aluminum alloy carriages, this rate was multiplying. It is worth noting that his aluminum alloy carriages cost several tens of thousands of pounds each.

"Caroline, you said I should open a factory in Sweden. Will the Swedish government welcome me?" This person immediately ran to find Lin Luoke and then leaned in front of her to ask.

The little girl nodded with a flushed face

The next construction project is the diesel engine factory, which will be named Yang's Power Systems Company. However, it cannot solely focus on manufacturing diesel engines and small hand tractors; its true goal is to produce steam turbines, followed by the construction of warships. Once it has established a reputation, it will then sell steam turbines to various European countries. I wonder what the scenario would be if the German High Seas Fleet were to completely replace its engines with Parsons steam turbines and then engage in a duel with the British Navy. This entity has a strong sense of mission when it comes to disrupting the world.

His gratitude towards Yang Feng is truly heartfelt. Although the fool has a special identity and his intellect may not be particularly sharp, this does not undermine his status. The only thing that could jeopardize his identity is his health issues. Now that the chronic ailment that has troubled him for many years has been easily resolved by Yang Feng, he naturally feels an immense sense of gratitude.

"Yes, a small light bulb factory. However, I still have quite a few plans in the industrial sector; it just requires time to implement them gradually," Yang Feng said.

Where can one find a trustworthy person? This individual cannot help but sigh, ultimately realizing that his own abilities are still lacking. If he had sufficient strength, he believes this would not be a matter worth worrying about.

The vampire, whose complexion was already not very good, gave a faint nod.

Yang Feng's words lit up her eyes, and she nodded repeatedly with a beaming smile. Naturally, she was delighted. At present, she and Yang Feng were in a tender and affectionate phase. If Yang Feng were to go to Sweden for development, then there would be no obstacles in her family matters in the future

At that time, I will discuss it with him. It would be best if we could purchase it; if not, we will have to find another way. If all else fails, we may have to resort to drastic measures. After all, in the smog of London, the death of a small factory owner is hardly something to make a fuss about

In fact, he is just a bit off mentally; he is not foolish to the point of being senile. Yang Feng has reached this level, and if he still does not understand, then he would truly be senile

Boss Yang mysteriously took out a box of condoms from his medicine cabinet, followed by a bottle of Viagra, and then produced a plastic female sex toy, demonstrating its use to the fool in a showy manner. At this point, the fool's eyes were already quite bright, and it is likely that many would believe he is not a fool.

However, this also served as a reminder to Yang Feng that he needs a group of individuals specifically tasked with handling dirty work. It is important to recognize that such matters are likely to arise frequently in the future. Currently, many new technologies have already been invented in Europe, but they simply lack the capability for industrial production.

But I am not familiar with your place at all," Yang Feng said, feigning a look of distress.

Yang, please complete the carriage as soon as possible; Eddie has been urging me quite urgently these days. As the vampire spoke while walking out of the study, Yang Feng's aluminum alloy carriages had recently received dozens of orders, especially since the fool had purchased three at once. These orders were all based on styles provided by the customers, and in any case, creating the beautiful female avatars was quite simple.

Furthermore, I have also heard that you are opening a factory?" the vampire continued to inquire

The thought of the various new weapons he would produce in the future being continuously delivered to the European powers, only to see them wield these weapons and engage in bloody conflicts, filled him with an inexplicable excitement

This military industrial base must first be located in a country that will remain neutral in the future. Secondly, this country must have a sufficient number of skilled workers, and furthermore, it must possess steel resources. Thus, it seems that only the Lin family is suitable for this.

Moreover, he not only lacks someone to do the dirty work, but also lacks an industrial base, as one should know.

Thank you, Eric! If there is truly a need for assistance, I will definitely be the first to come to you said Yang Feng casually, though he was also quite curious about what kind of identity this fool had, as the old man spoke with quite a bit of arrogance, even more so than a member of the nobility.
