Chapter 478: Choice, Korinovsky's Final Decision

Hearing this, Qin Shan glanced at Kolinovsky and then nodded slightly.

Although Kolinovsky did not explicitly say what news he had received, no one here was stupid, so there was no need to say much.

Just let everyone know...

After receiving Qin Shan's response, Kolinovsky's eyes moved slightly.

He exchanged a glance with Renault, the administrator of Sande Village, and immediately asked, "I wonder if you, Long Village, will participate in this joint exercise?"

Along with Kolinovsky's voice, Renault stared straight at Qin Shan, waiting for Qin Shan's response.

Facing the gazes of the two, Qin Shan smiled slightly and said:
"Shaluotuo has invited us. We can't refuse their kindness, so we will definitely participate..."

After saying this, Qin Shan turned his gaze towards the two of them and said, "I wonder if Mr. Kolinovsky and Mr. Renault would also like to participate?"

Hearing this, Kolinovsky glanced at Renault who was not far away from him, and then nodded directly:
"Of course we have to participate. Mr. Qin, you all have participated. How can we miss such an event..."

As soon as he finished speaking, Renault beside him nodded and said, "Mr. Kolinovsky is right. We have also received an invitation from Sand Camel, so of course we will participate..."

If Longcun didn't get involved, they might still consider it.

But now that Long Village is involved, how could they not get involved in such a thing?
Even if Longcun really doesn't want to participate, they have to find a way to get Longcun involved.

After all, this is a rare opportunity to witness the power of Dragon Village!
Since showing off his muscles more than a year ago, Longcun has not publicly demonstrated any strength.

Even the previous display of muscles was just a formality in which he took out things like Chiwen.

In fact, no one has ever really seen the combat effectiveness of these things.

Now, I can experience it up close and personal, which is much more meaningful than any demonstration...

Whether it is Kolinovsky or Renault, they all really want to know how far Dragon Village has developed now, and they also want to know how much power is hidden in the hands of Dragon Village now!

After a pause, Renault continued, "I wonder how many forces you plan to send to participate in the exercise this time, Mr. Qin?"

Hearing this, Qin Shan took a deep look at Renault and said:
"We haven't decided on the specifics yet, but if nothing unexpected happens, our Longyuan-class destroyer should participate in the exercise this time."

Longyuan level?
Hearing this name, Kolinovsky and the other two were startled.

This was not the first time they had heard this name.

They even personally went up to the Longyuan class to observe it, and both of them had a deep understanding of the power, or "science fiction" of the Longyuan class!
If they had not personally gone aboard to see it, or even touched it with their own hands, they would never have been able to imagine that the Longyuan-class destroyer, something that theoretically should only exist in science fiction movies, would appear in reality.

In the past, they have always wanted to know the true situation of the Longyuan level.

Does it really have the combat capability that only exists in science fiction, or is it just a superficial "show" boasted by Longcun?

It’s a pity that in the past, Longcun had never thought about publicly displaying the true strength of the Longyuan level.

Since Long Village doesn't want to, other villages naturally don't dare to force Long Village to do anything. Just kidding, let alone what the real combat power of the Longyuan level is.

Even if the combat capability of the Longyuan class is fake, leaving aside the Longyuan class destroyers, there are only 52G and that seemingly shabby aircraft carrier. Who can stop these warships?

There is no need to talk about the strength of 52G, as Shaluotuo and his team have already proved everything.

As for the aircraft carrier that Long Village "picked up scraps", although it was not very good, the carrier-based aircraft on it were something that no village on the blue planet could possibly match!

Are you kidding? Wasn’t what happened to the Black and White Eagle Village eye-catching enough?
And now, Longcun is finally planning to publicly display the true combat power of the Longyuan level!
Thinking that they would be able to see the true situation of the Longyuan class soon, both Korinovic and Renault were vaguely impatient.

I even want to go back right now and take my own fleet to the desert to participate in exercises!
Fortunately, they were not ordinary people. Although they were impatient, they suppressed the impulse in their hearts after just a moment.

Then he continued to talk to Qin Shan about the previous business.

Like Renault before, Kolinovsky did not want to discuss the 52GE matter in front of Renault. After a brief greeting, he also pulled Qin Shan to the other side of the battleship...

only……

"One hundred billion dragon coins?"

After hearing the price Qin Shan offered, Korinovsky fell silent.

Although they had already done transactions worth trillions of dragon coins with Dragon Village before.

But now when he heard the price of 100 billion, Kolinovsky still felt a little nervous.

After all, that is 100 billion Dragon Coins, not 100 billion Zimbabwean Dollars!
There is not a single village that can ignore the 100 billion. Not to mention the Polar Bears, even the Black and White Eagle Village, which was once at its peak, would not just throw out 100 billion to play around!

Seeing Kolinovsky's reaction, Qin Shan smiled slightly and continued:
"If Mr. Kolinovsky feels that this price is not appropriate, we actually have another plan. I think Mr. Kolinovsky might be able to refer to it..."

"Oh?" Kolinovsky's eyes moved slightly, "I wonder what plan Davari is talking about?"

Qin Shan did not keep the secret and said directly: "It's very simple. We will carry out technical cooperation. We will help you upgrade your warships, or jointly develop new warships. You only need to provide enough resources..."

"Of course, there is another option. We can directly sell the 52GE destroyer to you, Mr. Kolinovsky..."

Hearing this, Kolinovsky also fell into deep thought.

After an unknown amount of time, Kolinovsky regained his consciousness, looked at Qin Shan deeply, and then said:
"If we want to purchase 52GE destroyers, I wonder what your price is, Davari?"

"150 billion dragon coins!" Qin Shan said without hesitation in response to Kolinovsky's question.

This was the price given by Sand Camel before.

This is twice the price that Longcun originally planned to offer!
The price Qin Shan and his team had originally agreed on was 52 billion per ship. After all, the cost of building a 52G-class destroyer, even if they let the Dragon Village officials do it themselves, without Su Heng's fully intelligent production equipment, only required more than billion dragon coins, less than billion. Even Qin Shan and his team did not expect that Luotuo would spend a fortune on horse bones and directly raised the price of G by so much!
Now, with Shaluotuo and his team leading the way, Qin Shan and others simply set the price of 52G at this standard.

Is 15 billion expensive?

To be honest, it is indeed expensive!
It can even be said to be outrageously expensive!
After all, even for the Black and White Eagle Village, their latest model of Aegis ship only cost less than 2 billion US dollars!

According to the previous exchange rate, that would be nearly 14 billion dragon coins!

As we all know, the military costs of Black and White Eagle Village are extremely outrageous!
The same equipment can be produced in Longcun at only one-third of their cost, or even less than one-third!
And now, the price of 52GE is more expensive than the most expensive Aegis ship in Black and White Eagle Village!

Isn’t this price outrageous?

Not to mention others, even Qin Shan and others felt that the price was too expensive.

But judging from the performance of 52GE, it is totally worth the price!
After all, the Aegis ship of Black and White Eagle Village, which cost nearly 52 billion dollars, was completely vulnerable in front of GE!
In a word - it’s expensive for a reason!

In front of Qin Shan, after hearing the price Qin Shan said, even though he was mentally prepared, Korinosky still fell silent.

After a long while, Kolinovsky shook his head slightly and said:
"So, if we choose technical cooperation, what is your cooperation plan?"

"Technical cooperation?" Qin Shan pondered for a moment, then said, "If it is technical cooperation, we have two alternative plans for you, Mr. Kolinovsky, to choose from..."

"First, we will help you upgrade your existing warships based on your existing warships. The upgrades include radar, fire control, weapons, power systems, etc."

"The specific renovation price will be negotiated based on the specific situation..."

"Second, we will cooperate with you to develop a new type of warship. We will provide the technology and you will provide the funds and resources. After the development is successful, we will share the technology. The specific cost will be analyzed according to the development situation..."

Hearing this, Kolinovsky's heart moved.

Compared with directly purchasing warships, these two options seem to better meet their needs.

Whether it is the first or the second.

The first option is to directly ask Longcun to help them upgrade their warships. Even if Longcun keeps the process secret, their technical staff will be able to learn something during the upgrade process.

Maybe you can even learn all of Longcun's techniques.

After all, what they lack is actually cutting-edge semiconductor technology such as radar, electronic countermeasure systems, and fire control.

As for engines and the like, this is actually not their weak point, at least not too weak.

After all, no matter what, they were once one of the only two overlords on Blue Star. Even if they had been living off their old capital for twenty years, their foundation was still there. It would not be a problem for them to research ancient things and come up with some basic things...

As long as they can master radar, electronic countermeasures and other technologies, it won't be difficult for them to build their own warships in the future...

The second one is even better.

If reason had not told Kolinovsky that Long Village would not do charity, Kolinovsky would even have thought that Long Village had a conscience and wanted to give them welfare!

After all, Long Village is now clearly the dominant party, or in other words, the owner of the technology, while they are the demanders of the technology.

The second type of cooperation model, to a certain extent, isn't this just giving technology to the Polar Bear Village for free?

At least that's what it seems on the surface.

But it was only on the surface. As I said before, Kolinovsky did not think that Longcun would do charity.

If you really want to treat Longcun as a fool, then the person who has this idea is the real fool!
Just like the Black and White Eagle Village today, which was the world hegemon two years ago, what has it become now?
Except for the armed forces in Dongying Village, the armed forces in other places have almost been completely withdrawn.

Looking around the world, there were once hundreds of military bases all over the world, but now there are less than ten of them outside!

And all this is because of Longcun!

Every time he thought of Longcun's methods, Kolinovsky couldn't help but feel a little scared...

In Kolinovsky's opinion, Longcun is more like a real poisonous snake with deadly venom. If it doesn't move, it's fine. But once it moves, the enemy will have to shed several layers of skin even if it doesn't die!

Thinking of this, Kolinovsky ruled out the second option without hesitation!

This option seems to have many advantages, but Kolinovsky really doesn't dare to choose this one, because there are too many possibilities...

Putting aside other things, judging by one's own experience, if Long Village had been a little more shameless and had cooperated with White Elephant Village in the development of the T50 stealth fighter, they would have no idea how many billions they would have invested!
That's a real bottomless pit!
If Baixiang Village hadn't run away quickly, the losses of Baixiang Village would not be explained by the billions of green coins...

Thinking of this, Kolinovsky directly ruled out the first option.

They also helped to upgrade the warships for Baixiang Village.

They even set a trap for Baixiang Village, selling an aircraft carrier to Baixing Village at a really cheap price, and then cut the meat with a blunt knife, cutting billions of green coins from Baixiang one by one!
Due to various reasons, the aircraft carrier is still in their Polar Bear Village, and they have already spent nearly 3 billion green coins from the White Elephant Village...

Although there was also an element of revenge involved, the White Elephant Village owed the Polar Bears more than 10 billion Polar Bear Coins in foreign debt, and then the White Elephant Village dragged on with the money until the old Polar Bear collapsed and the Polar Bear Coins plummeted in value.

As a result, the White Elephant Village only spent 500 million green coins to pay off the more than 10 billion Polar Bear Coins, equivalent to nearly 5 billion US dollars in foreign debt!

The polar bear has always remembered this account, so he has been digging holes for the White Elephant Village!
But no matter what the reason is, they have a "criminal record" in this regard, so Kolinovsky is worried that Long Village will set a trap for them!
After a long while, Kolinovsky shook his head, shook off the thoughts in his mind, and then said:

"Davali, one hundred billion is one hundred billion. We will use the mineral resources worth one hundred billion dragon coins to exchange for the full set of technology of your 52GE destroyer!"

After a pause, Kolinovsky continued: "In addition, we also want to purchase two 52GE destroyers!" (End of this chapter)
