"Garbage?"
Hearing this term, Qin Shan's forehead could not help but produce a number of black lines.
The blue veins began to jump uncontrollably.
For a long time, Qin Shan finally managed to suppress the agitation in his heart forcefully.
"Whew..."
"Don't be angry... don't be angry..."
"Xiao Su is a monster, we don't compete with monsters..."
Taking several deep breaths, Qin Shan finally managed to stabilize himself.
Then, Qin Shan turned back to Su Heng and slowly said, "Xiao Su, no need for any more talk. Is it sixteen billion? I'll apply to the higher-ups as soon as I go back. Just wait for my message. If the technical verification passes, I can give you a hint: the quantity we need, the minimum is this number."
When he said that last sentence, Qin Shan raised his index finger and middle finger.
Seeing this, Su Heng raised his eyebrow slightly, "Two hundred?"
"????"
Hearing Su Heng's voice, Qin Shan immediately froze.
For a moment, he didn't react.
And then there was a slight twitch at the corners of his mouth.
"Two hundred ships? You're really treating our navy like a sudden millionaire, right? How dare you think so?"
One ship at sixteen billion, that's three hundred and twenty billion for two hundred ships!
Qin Shan actually wanted to purchase two hundred ships, but the national defense army doesn't have the money for it!
The annual military budget of the national defense army for three forces is only seven thousand billion, where can we get the money to purchase two hundred submarines?
We can't just seize the military budgets of our brother units to use, can we? Not to mention whether we can seize them, even if we could, they wouldn't do that. And certainly not without approval from above. A single tree cannot support a building; the national defense army isn't just about the navy. Without any one of the army, navy, or air force, it wouldn't work!
"Oh... I thought you would be very generous, hoping to make more money this time. I didn't expect that you don't have the money either, you're just as generous as my old man..."
At the moment Qin Shan was laughing and cursing, Su Heng's soft voice started to murmur.
At the sound of this, Qin Shan's face turned dark:
"Qian Lao? Qian Zhizhong?"
"Xiao Su, I'm telling you, don't believe in Qian Zhizhong, that old man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, he's a real piece of work!"
"And Tang Jianjun, don't be deceived by his kind and benevolent appearance; in reality, he's just as cunning and full of bad intentions, worse than those other old men. Don't let yourself be tricked by them."
At the sound of this, Su Heng quietly said, "But they gave me five thousand orders for unmanned aerial vehicles at a time."
"????" Hearing Su Heng's voice, Qin Shan was stunned for a moment and then suddenly realized: "How many??"
"Five thousand," Su Heng replied seriously.
"！"
Qin Shan's eyes were wide open.
"Alright, alright! Qian Zhizhong, you old man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, you always act poor every year, using those outdated J-5 fighter jets as your facade during the New Year. turns out you were playing me!"
"Five thousand unmanned aerial vehicles? That's quite a big handout! Alright, alright!"
At that moment, Qin Shan was so angry that he blew his whiskers and bulged his eyes.
He was so angry he couldn't even vent his anger properly. He knew about Qian Zhizhong's procurement of drones, but he hadn't expected Qian Zhizhong to buy so many in one go!
So many drones, they could all smash their navy's warships to pieces!
"You wait, Qian Zhizhong! I'll make you wait and see how I'll deal with you!"
Biting his teeth, Qin Shan silently took out his little notebook and wrote down Qian Zhizhong's name.
Only after doing all this, Qin Shan turned his gaze back to Su Heng and smiled.
"Xiao Su, you see, you also came from our navy, right? You've given so much to the outsiders like Qian Zhizhong. How about our own? Should we…?"
Faced with the pressure of the five thousand drones, Qin Shan couldn't care less about his dignity and went straight for a face-saving tactic, trying to build a relationship with Su Heng and giving wild hints.
Seeing this, Su Heng couldn't help but smile.
In a moment of thought, Su Heng's lips curved slightly, and then he pointed to the Qianyue beneath his feet, slowly saying: "Old Qin, I do have things here. Yes... isn't this it? As long as your small money is in place, this thing can be as many as you want. I can wholesale at least ten of these for you in a year!"
"If you still feel that's not enough, add a bit more money, and I'll expand the shipyard. I'll aim to give you twenty ships a year."
At the sound of this, Qin Shan's mouth and face turned black.
After a long time, Qin Shan looked at Su Heng with a deep gaze, and sighed slightly: "Xiao Su, you've changed."
At this moment, Qin Shan suddenly felt a sense of nostalgia for the previous Su Heng who would always say "donate, donate, donate" whenever anything came up.
Just look at Su Heng, how adorable!
And look at this one, it's really unfamiliar...
He really, really wishes that Su Heng could just wave his hand and give him a hundred or eighty submarines, so that he could walk with the wind!
Later, he could have hundreds of strategic submarines arrayed in formation on the sea surface, take a picture, and report it to the higher-ups at the end of the year. Then he could throw hundreds of strategic submarines at Qian Zhizhong's face and take pictures of them with his phone, then throw more pictures of strategic submarines at his old friends in the army. From then on, who would ever dare to argue with their navy again?
However, now it seems that all of this is no longer possible.
The honest and simple Su Heng is no longer there; now all that remains is this Su Heng, who exudes a corrupt aura of wealth...
"Hmm..."
Facing Qin Shan's resentful gaze, Su Heng laughed awkwardly and didn't say much.
After the joke, Su Heng thought for a moment before speaking seriously again.
"Old Qin, if you're interested in unmanned equipment, I have something here that might interest you."
"Oh?" Qin Shan's interest was piqued, "Is there something for our navy?"
"Um," Su Heng nodded slightly and continued, "It's a type of unmanned yacht, which can also be considered an unmanned equipment..."
Unmanned yachts, of course, refer to the unmanned yachts he mentioned to Qian Zhizhong and others earlier.
Originally, Tang Jianjun intended to go and check it out, but something happened on his end suddenly, and he was called back in a hurry. As a result, the yachts are still sitting in the Longyuan Shipyard right now.
"Good! Xiao Su, I wasn't wrong about you!"
After hearing Su Heng's response, Qin Shan also revealed a strong smile on his face.
Patted Su Heng's shoulder, Qin Shan continued: "Xiao Su, how about it? Think about my previous proposal? Come to our navy. With your contributions and abilities, I'll apply for it again. At that time, I will ensure that at least one flower will be hung on you!"
Hang a flower?
Su Heng's eyes light up.
However, Su Heng shook his head in response, saying: "Never mind, Old Qin. I appreciate your kindness, but I'm too laid-back and used to being carefree. I'm not used to military rules and might cause big trouble at any time."
At these words, Qin Shan felt a bit disappointed.
To be honest, Qin Shan really wanted to have Su Heng join the navy.
Such talent is hard to find!
Unfortunately, Su Heng never had any interest in that aspect from the start...
With a slight sigh, Qin Shan shook off the thoughts in his mind and was ready to continue speaking.
However, just as he was about to speak, a sudden voice rang out.
"Report! A large unknown signal source has been detected ahead! The target is advancing towards us at a stealth speed of 21 knots. It is expected to encounter us in ten minutes!"
