Direct purchase?
Upon hearing the old man's voice, Korinovskij's face showed some discomfort.
This option may be the most practical and effective.
But who are they? Polar bears, of course!
Once the big boss of Long Village, decades ago, Long Village could only follow them and pick up food behind them. They, a vintage destroyer ship that will be retired at the end of the S2 season, can call out the sky-high price of tens of tons of gold for each ship in front of Long Village!
Yes, a destroyer with a fully loaded displacement of only over 1,000 tons is quoted at ten tons of gold per ship!
And Long Village can only bite the bullet and buy it!
Because if Long Village doesn't buy from them, they won't be able to find another seller!
But now, how many years have passed? They can only buy warships from Long Village in the same way?
For a moment, Korinovskij found it hard to accept.
"Let's talk about this later. In a few days, I will be visiting Long Village, and I will propose a visit to their fleet. The technical department will need to prepare for me to go with you..."
For a long time, Korinovskij finally managed to suppress the thoughts in his mind and then spoke in a deep voice.
"Yes, sir..."
In response to Korinovskij's voice, the old man didn't say much and nodded immediately.
After that, seeing that Korinovskij had no other instructions, the old man directly stood up and left.
"Long Village..."
Looking at the old man's departure, Korinovskij had a complex expression.
Looking again at the photo of the 52GE destroyer on his desk, countless pieces of information about Long Village flashed through Korinovskij's mind like a carousel.
"Could it be that you have aliens helping you in the background?"
In the midst of his racing thoughts, Korinovskij couldn't help but mutter.
Despite telling himself that it was irrational to think about the existence of aliens, Korinovskij couldn't help but think about it. He knew that humans had no evidence of alien life on Earth so far, despite the occasional sighting of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) in places like black and white Eagle Village in the last century. But those sightings were nothing but a scam and couldn't fool him.
The so-called UFOs were nothing but deliberately concocted tales by Black and White Eagle Village.
Nevertheless, despite all of this being clear, he really couldn't find any other possible reason for Long Village's rapid development except for aliens.
How many years have passed since Long Village achieved true independence and self-reliance?
In just a few decades, Long Village not only managed to complete the journey that took their Western counterparts several centuries, but also achieved a substantial lead!
Now, they are on the verge of entering outer space!
Is this something humans can achieve?
If before Long Village was just "blindly copying" from the Western world, as some online detractors put it, Long Village was just a group of "copycats" and "knock-offs."
But now, Long Village's things have surpassed what is considered the scope of "copycatting" and "knock-offs."
Take the 52GE destroyer on the table as an example, copycatting?
Such an advanced warship, aside from Long Village itself, can't be found in the entire world. Who could Long Village be copying?
Could it be that Long Village copied the future of their Western counterparts, including the future warships they would have, and then copied them into the present?
This joke is not funny at all!
Compared to Long Village's possession of technology that can see into their Western future.
Korinovskij, on the other hand, would rather believe that Long Village really did receive help from aliens.
At least this possibility is more reliable than the former.
As for Long Village being self-reliant?
Korinovskiy couldn't believe it, and even more unwilling to believe it.
If Long Village's wisdom has indeed reached such an incredible level, the information contained within it is not inferior to the technology that allows for peeping into the future!
Thinking about these things, Korinovskij's gaze became even more complex...
...
Meanwhile, in Korinovskij's heart and mind were full of various thoughts, while in Long Village, Qinshan, and others' offices -
"Qin, we also want to purchase some warships, but your 52GE destroyer is too expensive for us to afford. Do you have any smaller, more affordable warships available?"
A middle-aged man, slightly embarrassed, opened his mouth to speak in front of Qinshan.
"Purchase warships?"
Hearing the middle-aged man's voice, Qinshan's brow furrowed slightly.
After thinking for a moment, Qinshan called out artificial intelligence Ahqing and displayed a model in front of the middle-aged man.
Then he slowly spoke, "This is our previously produced 56-class frigate, with a fully loaded displacement of 1,800 tons..."
1,800 tons displacement?
Upon hearing this data, a hint of disappointment crossed the middle-aged man's eyes.
The displacement alone was enough to rule it out.
With such a low displacement, no matter how advanced it is, how much weaponry can it carry?
However, with a sense of hope, the middle-aged man still opened his mouth after Qinshan finished speaking:
"Qin, can it be equipped with anti-ship missiles?"
Hearing this, Qinshan nodded and said, "Yes, this type of frigate is equipped with two twin anti-ship missile launch systems, which can carry out anti-ship missions..."
After listening to Qinshan's words, the middle-aged man's heart moved slightly, "Qin, can it carry the XH-2 Hypersonic Anti-ship Ballistic Missile?"
"..." Qinshan's lips twitched slightly.
Goodness, a frigate with a fully loaded displacement of 1,800 tons carrying the XH-2 hypersonic anti-ship ballistic missile?
This is even more ridiculous than Long Village equipping a high-speed boat with eight long-range anti-ship missiles.
Fortunately, Qinshan's psychological toughness is decent. After a moment of helplessness, Qinshan shook his head and said:
"I'm sorry, Mr. Anatoly, it can't be equipped with the XH-2 hypersonic anti-ship ballistic missile. However, if you need it, we can modify it to carry the YJ-81G heavy hypersonic anti-ship missile..."
While speaking, Qinshan also had Ahqing pull up the data for the YJ-81G heavy hypersonic anti-ship missile.
"Y85G heavy hypersonic anti-ship missile?" Looking at the virtual projection of the data in front of him, the middle-aged man shook his head slightly and said, "No, no, Qin, do you have any other warships?"
To be honest, the Y85G heavy hypersonic anti-ship missile is not bad.
It's an upgraded version of the Y85 anti-ship missile that Long Village previously exported to the Sand Camel.
The missile has a length of 6.8 meters, a weight of 800 kilograms, a warhead weighing 150 kilograms, and the warhead's explosive material has been entirely replaced with blue dynamite!
The maximum range is 300 km, the cruise height is 30 meters, the end-of-flight skimming height is 10 meters, the cruise speed is 0.9 Mach, and the end-of-flight acceleration maximum speed is 2.5 Mach.
This anti-ship missile is extremely advanced when compared to the rest of the world.
However, with the XH-2 hypersonic anti-ship ballistic missile in front of it, this missile doesn't seem as outstanding.
Even without mentioning the XH-2 hypersonic anti-ship ballistic missile, let alone the "ordinary" HJ-13 heavy hypersonic anti-ship missile that Long Village previously equipped for the 52GE, this missile cannot match it.
After all, not even reaching hypersonic speeds, and with a cruise speed that is only subsonic, what qualifies as being outstanding?
And the displacement of this warship is really too small. Even if anti-ship missiles are forcibly installed, it may not have independent combat capabilities. This is not very practical for them...
In response to the middle-aged man's voice, Qinshan shook his head slightly and then called up a model of another warship, saying:
"Here is the upgraded version of our Long Village's 54-class frigate, the 54G-class frigate, which has a fully loaded displacement of 4,300 tons. It is equipped with an active phased array radar that is second only to the 52G destroyer. It also has six sets of four-link 900-millimeter large-caliber vertical launch systems..."
After displaying the specifications of the 54G-class frigate, Qinshan gave a detailed explanation of this type of warship to the middle-aged man in front of him.
Until the end, "Although its strength is not as good as the 52G, it has an absolute advantage over other ships of the same level except for our Long Village!"
"Even when facing the Black and White Eagle Village's God's Shield ships, with our missiles, we can achieve a certain level of resistance!"
"I think it should be the most suitable for you, Mr. Anatoly..."
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man's eyes brightened.
"Qin, can it be equipped with the XH-2 hypersonic anti-ship ballistic missile?"
In a reflex, the middle-aged man spoke again.
"..." Qinshan fell silent again.
Looking at the middle-aged man, his gaze was also somewhat profound and deep.
Not buddy, are you looking for trouble?
What kind of warship do you want to install the XH-2 hypersonic anti-ship ballistic missile on?
XH-2 hypersonic anti-ship ballistic missile is not cabbage, you know.
Seemingly sensing Qinshan's oddness, the other person beside the middle-aged man cleared his throat and quickly said:
"Qin, please forgive our impoliteness. It's really too big of an impact that the 52GE brought by His Highness, the Prince of Modolara, and others had on us..."
"You know, we have been plagued by white elephants for a long time. Although we have regained some of our lands and taken some advantage over them in the past few days, it has also worsened our relationship with them. At the same time, they have been increasing their frequency of harassment against us, especially on the sea. They have been constantly interfering with our shipping lanes. Therefore, we are now in urgent need of weapons to counteract them..."
Hearing this, Qinshan nodded slightly.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man and others breathed a sigh of relief.
Thought for a moment, the middle-aged man who spoke before continued:
"Qin, can this warship deal with the white elephant's Reid-class destroyer and aircraft carrier?"
"In response to your question, Qinshan nodded slightly and said:"
"Of course, although the 54G-class frigate cannot be equipped with the XH-2 hypersonic anti-ship ballistic missile, it can be equipped with the HJ-13 heavy hypersonic anti-ship missile!"
"The HJ-13 heavy hypersonic anti-ship missile has a length of 7 meters, weighs 850 kilograms, has a warhead weighing 100 kilograms, with a maximum range of 600 kilometers, a cruise speed of 2 Mach, and an end-of-flight acceleration maximum speed of 5 Mach..."
"With the performance of the HJ-13 heavy hypersonic anti-ship missile, it can be said that it is more than enough to deal with all the warships of White Elephant Village!"
"We can even say without hesitation that using the HJ-13 heavy hypersonic anti-ship missile to counteract their warships is completely wasting talent!"
After hearing Qinshan's words, the two middle-aged men exchanged a glance and then both fell into deep thought.
After a long time, the middle-aged man raised his head and said:
"Qin, how much is this warship?"
"Fifty billion," Qinshan replied.
Hearing this number, the faces of the two middle-aged men couldn't help but change.
But before the two could open their mouths, Qinshan spoke again: "Considering our relationship, I can make the decision. If you, Mr. Small Bach Village, purchase it, including all the accompanying weapons, a single ship will cost 30 billion Long Yuan..."
Three billion...
The two middle-aged men looked at each other and smiled bitterly.
This price is still too high.
Almost instinctively, the two were about to open their mouths to say something.
However, before they could speak, they couldn't continue.
According to the parameters of the 54G-class frigate described by Qinshan earlier, it is indeed worth this price.
Even more so, not to mention thirty billion, the fifty billion Qinshan mentioned earlier isn't excessive either.
Just remember, the 52GE destroyer that Sand Camel bought earlier was one that cost 150 billion!
Although this one hundred and fifty billion had such a high value, the main reason was that Sand Camel wasn't short of money and did indeed need something capable of resisting the White and Black Eagle Village.
But regardless of that, the price of the 52GE is a fact.
And the global cruise of Sand Camel has already proven the value of the one hundred and fifty billion they spent!
Now looking around the world, who dares to nag Sand Camel?
Before White Elephant Village was disrespectful, and then how?
Three times of joint drills, and three times of being beaten down!
And it was a creative beating down, even though Sand Camel had seriously toned down the intensity!
The strength of the 52GE has long been known to everyone!
And the 52G, although only a frigate, has a displacement of two thousand tons less than that of the 52GE on paper alone!
If the data Qinshan mentioned is true, then the strength of this frigate, in dealing with those backward warships of White Elephant Village, would be completely sufficient!
Even the aircraft carrier of White Elephant is not enough, as White Elephant has a carrier, but its combat power... is beyond description!
Thinking of this, the two men sighed softly.
Then they said: "Qin, we want to purchase some 54G frigates. In terms of quantity, we want to start with six ships first. How long will it take to deliver?"
Qinshan nodded slightly and said: "Six ships, the latest delivery time will be within one year..."
Upon hearing this, the two men's eyes lit up. "One year? That's good. We'll contact our village right away and sign the contract as soon as we get a response..."
...
Three days later, the representatives of Little Bach Village returned once again. Afterwards, directly in front of the representatives from other villages, they signed a contract with Long Village for eight 54G-class frigates!
Yes, eight ships. We initially only wanted to purchase six.
But with the previous global cruise of Sand Camel and their three-to-three victory in three battles against White Elephant Village, it was clear that this was a very good opportunity for us.
Little Bach Village boldly put out their entire annual budget and ordered eight 54G ships.
Seeing Little Bach Village placing their order, White Elephant Village couldn't sit still—
"I protest! You're inciting regional conflicts! You're committing a crime!"
The representatives from Little Bach Village looked over at their side, where the representatives from White Elephant Village stared with eyes wide open, glaring at Qinshan angrily and exclaimed.
"Protest?" Hearing this noise, Qinshan turned his gaze towards the other party and said calmly:
"This representative, if you are here to do business with us, we welcome you with open arms. If you are here to cause trouble, then please leave, or let your fleet come and talk to ours!"
