Scott's supply of things was indeed a bit of a problem. He pretended to be another product, and he designated the product of another company.
The reason is that the boss who replaced the goods was found and asked someone to take the corresponding order. The other party is quite well-known and he could not refuse.
"Lin, I guarantee that the quality of that batch of goods is no less than what you specify, and is even better. Although the things do not match what you ask for, I will never harm you."
Lin Mo nodded and replied: "I chose to trust you, but the goods will still be inspected. If there are any such situations in the future, I hope that we will make it clear in advance and we will deal with it together."
"...Thank you..." Scott bowed solemnly. It was obvious that this guy was obviously making jokes just now, and it was obvious that this guy was also an unlucky fox.
"...Okay... Let's talk about the other party first, what's the specific situation?" Lin Mo stretched out his chopsticks and asked while picking up the food. Since he said he trusted the other party, he would definitely have to do his posture.
Scott breathed a sigh of relief and explained the situation. The one who greeted him was the boss of a local steel company in the United States. Although the scale was not too large, his strength and capital were not bad.
Behind it is a local political family. Although it is only a local family, its power is mixed and has a wide range of connections in the upper class of the United States.
In the parliament, almost every member elected local MP has someone inseparable from this family. Obtaining their support means becoming a member of parliament directly.
This steel company provides many jobs, including employees, relatives and friends, and the people that can be influenced by upstream and downstream, is an important stock of the family's votes.
However, after the Great Depression, the business of the steel company suffered a heavy blow and has been maintained by the subsidies of that family. Over the years, it is urgent to find a way out to allow the company to operate normally and maintain this important bargaining chip in its hands.
At the repair shop, military supplies are basically imported, and orders are basically handed over to Scott. Of course, the demand is not too large at present.
However, Inscott helped the department a lot and rewarded him. He also gave him some orders for steel, steel bars, pipes, etc., to build the factory.
Moreover, it is the high-quality materials required, with a high profit of not low, and now there are already a lot of them. The other party is starting to focus on this order.
Because the other party had a good relationship with the US intelligence and law enforcement agencies, Scott gave the order to the other party.
However, the other party did not know what channel it was through and learned about the situation of the Intelligence Department and the Mechanical Repair Center. The other party felt that the Mechanical Repair Center had a good prospect and believed that it was possible to provide a large number of orders in the future, so he occupied the order for military supplies.
After hearing this, Wu Wulin interrupted, "That batch of materials does feel that the quality is slightly higher during use, but this is not right? Since you have this strength and power, why not do other large orders? You have to target you specifically. Take away this not-so-large order. At least in foreign countries, this can only be considered a small order."
After listening to it, Scott explained: "Others have a greater background in power, like the company you designated, and their background is much larger than this one.
But people who don’t like this order will not target me specifically. They belong to you. Those who don’t care about this order will not target me because of this.”
Seeing this, Lin Mo said, "Okay, don't worry about this, I'll ask a question, Cannon Gang, can the other party handle it?"
Scott was a little surprised when he heard this, frowned and thought about it, and said, "I can't confirm this question either. They do have the ability to produce high-quality steel and also produce steel that can meet the needs of firearm manufacturing, but they have not been involved in military industry. I'm not sure whether they can supply gun steel."
What Scott said was still relatively conservative and dare not make a promise. Lin Mo changed the question and directly pointed out that it was steel used to produce weapons such as mortars.
After considering it for a while, Scot said: "The chamber pressure of mortars is relatively low and the requirements for steel are not too high. This company's must be used.
This steel company's previous important business was to produce high-quality pipes, such as steel pipes that transport steam and fuel, that is, the pipes that transport steam engines, and the pipes that transport oil, kerosene, etc.
The steam pipelines it produces are used in large steam engines used in factories, power plants, and large ships. They are required to withstand high temperature and high pressure corrosion resistance, etc., with high performance requirements, and oil pipelines also require high requirements.
The raw materials of this high-quality pipe should be used on weapons such as mortars. With this production capacity, it is not difficult to produce other steels that meet this requirement."
Lin Mo nodded and said, "Whether it is suitable, you can discuss it with Director Wu before you can meet this requirement.
By the way, you said they produce high-quality pipes. What kind of steam pipes should be seamless steel pipes? Can you ask them to process a batch of pipes of specified sizes?"
"Just ask them to help process the barrel? This is definitely not possible!" Scott heard this and shook his head and denied it.
"It's not said that it's a gun barrel. It's just that they are asked to process the inner diameter of the pipe to a specified size. When transported back, we need to further process it. It's mainly in the early stage. Our processing ability and accuracy may be lacking, but some requirements are relatively tight. I want to ask the other party to help me!"
Upon hearing this, Scott said helplessly: "This is not Xiaobeng. Foreign countries block your weapons and sell some light weapons, raw materials, etc. No one cares about it, but this is a cannon. Even if it is just processing the inner diameter and being grabbed by someone, it is very troublesome and difficult."
"...You can go around in a circle..." Lin Mo refused to give up and said, "It should be no problem if you sell things first, in the name of gas and oil pipes, and then sell them to small pipes like South America, and then fake theft cases and lose them. You should be able to send them a few hands in the middle and then send them.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! Even if someone finds out, it should not be difficult to fool it with the other party’s background and background. As for you, you even dare to do military equipment, and you won’t care about it!"
Scott pinched the tip of his nose, thought for a moment, and said, "If you want the other party to help you, don't say anything else, you must give it enough benefits. The current order is far from enough."
Lin Mo smiled and said, "Don't worry, this time it's a big order, which may be more than the previous ones. We can still promise that there may continue to be orders of this size in the next few years."
After Lin Mo finished speaking, Xu Guyu wanted to speak, but was stopped by Lin Mo's eyes. He made some suggestions first and then explained later.
"The promise must be fulfilled? You can't make random promises with others!" Scott still didn't make up his mind and tentatively said.
"…Don't worry..." Lin Mo nodded and said, "If the other party really has enough strength and is honest and reliable, there are also many steel needs in the Lin family, so it may not be possible for the other party to get involved."
Lin Mo's words were considered as a promise to guarantee the bottom line. Scott was no longer worried and nodded and promised to try it.
Lin Mo also put down his chopsticks and took the list from Wu Liangdong. The three of them came aside to add and subtract, and planned the new list.
"Section chief, we can only solve the problem of materials, quality, output, etc., so before the war, before the trade channels were completely blocked, we need to stock up as much materials as possible.
Of course, I mean high-quality production raw materials, ordinary and ordinary. We try to find ways to solve them ourselves, and even high-quality ones need to try to find solutions, because the total war starts, the consumption may be beyond our imagination. We can take out all the funds on hand to purchase reserves, which may not be enough."
Lin Mo explained a little, and Xu Guyu agreed, letting Lin Mo put his heart back in his stomach.
The list was handed to Scott, and the guy scratched his head after reading it, saying, "Can you ask, are you sure you want to build such a large caliber mortar?
There were many calibers above 200 mm, and they even appeared in Europe during the war, and they were even popular for a while. But soon, they were basically completely eliminated by various countries and did not even end the war. This was a very backward weapon."
Lin Mo shook his head and smiled, "You know the reason but don't know why. What you said should be those represented by the British 9.45-inch heavy trench mortars?
The reason why they were eliminated was that the battlefield at that time, they fought from trench war to squat pit war, which means that they had charged before, but they were basically trapped in the trench without moving. Moreover, the trench defense system was becoming more and more perfect, resulting in their failure to play a role and being eliminated.
But we are different. The war we will face in the future is likely to be actively attacking others, while we are trapped in passive defense on a large scale. Such weapons happen to be very suitable for this kind of battlefield.
Even if it is possible to re-enact the European war situation, it is also positive for us to force our opponents into the squat battle situation. So! There are no advanced and backward weapons, only weapons that are suitable for the battlefield or not."
"...This sentence is very good at last..." Skoita praised her head, and Wu Liangdong looked admiring, while Xu Gu Yu was full of thought, but he was full of appreciation and complacent. After all, this was his subordinate who was valued by him.
"But! I hope to adjust the caliber of this weapon. These are the mainstream caliber of the world's weapons. Although they can be circled, they are too conspicuous and difficult to deal with."
Lin Mo nodded slightly when he heard this, and then thought for a while and said, "Change 150 mm to 160 mm and 250 mm to 240 mm. What do you think?
No matter how small the diameter is, it is not suitable for modification. Compatibility and universality are needed. However, during production, the inner diameter can be made slightly smaller, and then we will process it to the required size. This is not difficult for us."
