Chapter 1307 The concept is used to collect money (second update, please subscribe)

This is the biggest difference between Daming and other places.

A good concept can always attract investment from others.

Let us work hard for our dreams!
Dream... At the beginning, it was just a concept!

Of course, you can never say that this is making money.After all, a concept is a dream, but it is absolutely different from a dream, because a concept may become a reality.

Don't say, it's the first time that slideshows have made cannons.

Of course, it's not possible to stay on the slideshow forever.

Right now, Zhao Qihang has limited manpower and material resources, so he has no choice but to draw some slides and use concepts to attract investment from others.

These slides, in the eyes of a layman like John, are simply nonsense. Things that stay on paper seriously lack practical support.

But on the other hand, he was really persuaded, no one else—one against a thousand was too tempting, and the rest of the regiment really wanted to persuade John not to listen to this guy's nonsense.

Also invested in his factory.

With this money, why not buy some shotguns?

Shotguns... are actually sniper rifles, which can kill people at 800 miles, uh, 800 meters away.

It is the perfect combination of Daming's optical technology and rifle technology.

buy this thing?

But anyone could tell that John seemed interested.

Staring at the weapons on the slide, John thought for a while and said.

"These design plans are still on paper after all. If you want to build a real cannon, you must make weapons, and then use actual actions to convince us."

"That's right!"

Zhao Qi nodded and said,

"That's right, so the purpose of my coming to you is to need you to provide a sum of money to help me purchase some equipment for the manufacture of this weapon. Of course, my factory can also reluctantly produce this weapon now, but Because the equipment is not complete, there will definitely be some problems in quality.

Mr. John, you only need [-] pounds now, and you can harvest a powerful weapon that can even help you win the war..."

Fifty thousand pounds... less?
That's almost 40 grams of gold!

In fact, this is also the reason why Zhao Qihang came here - the reason why he brought these slides here is because he wanted nothing to do with nothing.I want to use the gold of these Boers to help him realize the expansion of the factory and produce the latest products.

With the factory and the product, he can not only open up the Boer market, but also recommend this weapon to the military.

Of course, he needs to complete the expansion of the factory before that, only in this way can he be able to meet future orders.But he needs to let others pay for this money.

The Boers... are the most suitable people to take advantage of, er... no, investors.Of course, this money was not invested in his factory, but research and development funds and advance purchase expenses.

It's easy to convince them, just use these slides to convince them.No, it should be said that it uses a very good concept.

"5 pounds..."

John pondered for a while, then he cast his eyes on the slide again, and then he cast his eyes on Zhao Qihang again.

"If you are willing to use your factory as a guarantee, I can invest 5 pounds!"

After all, his eyes just looked at the Daming man in front of him.The reason why he would make this request is because as long as South Africa used to belong to its own arsenal, if this guy in front of him fails, then the money will be turned into a factory, and they can use his factory to produce rifles, and then ship the weapons directly to South Africa .

If successful, then they can harvest a powerful weapon.

No matter how you calculate it, this is a relatively cost-effective investment.

The air in the meeting room suddenly became quiet.

"My factory..."

After pondering for a moment, Zhao Qihang suddenly laughed.

"Mr. John, then... we have a happy cooperation!"

He looked at the Boers in front of him and said sincerely.

"Soon, you will harvest a weapon that can change the war."

Speaking of this, Zhao Qihang looked at the two with firm eyes,

"With this weapon, you can not only change the war, but also help your cause. I have the same feelings as you. I sincerely hope that you can defeat the British and guard your freedom..."

In fact, for Zhao Qihang, he really sincerely hopes that the Boers can continue to fight, because only those Boers must fight, can he sell more weapons and earn more profits.

Of course, those weapons will definitely not be shipped to South Africa in the name of weapons.Although Zhao Qihang is not an arms smuggler, he is very clear that these weapons will first enter the colony through normal export channels through various disguises, and finally transport them to Bechuanaland through the railway network of the imperial colony, and then be sent to South Africa.

What exactly is this process like?He didn't care, the only thing he cared about was that war could bring him riches.

The war will not only bring wealth to Zhao Qihang alone, it will also bring benefits to many people, at least for the Ming Empire, as the firefighter of the Ming Empire, after the outbreak of the war, many people and Businesses benefit from it.

Although the distant war in South Africa did not seem very eye-catching and seemed to be very limited in scale, it was like a drop of lubricating oil, nourishing the industrial machinery of the Ming Empire.

This drop of lubricating oil does not seem very eye-catching, but it is like the first drop of lubricant injected into this industrial system.

In fact, few people realize that the world is heading towards war at a speed beyond people's imagination as time enters the last decade of the nineteenth century. Silently preparing for the war, everything gradually turned into a real picture and story. Of course, no one can see this story clearly.

In this story, every country is making various preparations. In Daming, in England, in the United States, and in military factories in almost every country, customers from home or abroad have been welcomed. Hundreds of millions of wealth, under the banner of national security, was quickly transferred to the accounts of various arms suppliers, and then turned into dreadnoughts and cannons.

Of course, all this happened in obscurity, and for the outside world, they will never be able to see the truth.

But what is certain is that right now, the world from north to south is preparing for the coming war...
