Selling small motorcycles in mid-air to kick off the Southern Heavenly Gate Project?

Upon receiving Rashid's telegram, the Saudi high command immediately took it seriously.

They never expected that they could actually purchase the Dongfeng-3 medium-range ballistic missile through Dong'an International Trade Company.

Everything seemed unreal.

But the facts speak for themselves.

Yan is willing to sell Dongfeng-3 medium-range ballistic missiles, but the price, when spread out, is 250 million US dollars per missile.

This is $30 million more expensive than the maximum price they had previously anticipated.

The previous estimate of 220 million US dollars already represented a significant portion of the profits.

But unexpectedly, Yan State actually "shout out" 250 million US dollars per coin.

Saudi Arabia immediately convened a high-level meeting to discuss the matter.

After several hours of discussion, everyone finally reached a consensus.

The Saudi high command authorized Rashid to offer a maximum price of 250 million US dollars.

It would be best to lower the price.

The second condition is that Saudi Arabia must purchase more than thirty rounds, preferably thirty-six unexploded ordnance.

Not only do we need launch silos, but we also need launch vehicles.

The third condition is that Yan must provide a lifetime warranty for the Dongfeng-3 medium-range ballistic missiles purchased by Saudi Arabia.

The fourth condition was that Saudi Arabia would only provide 60% to 70% of the money in US dollars, with the remainder to be "substituted" with oil resources.

Besides the US dollar, Saudi Arabia has the richest oil resources.

They can easily "dig out oil" from their own land.

Oil could be used to alleviate the pressure on Saudi Arabia.

Saudi Arabia's abundant oil resources put it under no pressure whatsoever.

This is also a common trading method used by Saudi Arabia.

It's not that we can't afford to pay in US dollars, but rather that oil delivery is more cost-effective.

Saudi Arabia possesses an enormous amount of oil resources.

In addition to benefiting Saudi Arabia, the delivery of oil resources can also cultivate certain habits in Yan.

With China's reform and opening up, the demand for oil will increase sharply, and there is a high probability that China will purchase oil from Saudi Arabia.

This can be considered as cultivating your own user base in advance.

By any measure, Saudi Arabia is not at a loss.

Saudi Arabia's top leadership believes that they are looking to the future, not the present.

……

In the following days, Rashid led Saudi Arabia's representatives to the Dong'an International Trading Company to negotiate with Qian Huaijin.

The transaction model between the two parties is a package delivery of the complete missile system, launch site, complete logistics, lifetime technical maintenance, and personnel training.

It has 36 combat missiles, 9 mobile launch units, 2 fixed underground combat readiness bases, and a complete telemetry, tracking, and command system.

Rashid recounted the conditions put forward by the Saudi high command one by one.

After listening, Qian Huaijin was mainly stuck on the issue of how the money was given.

Qian Huaijin demanded at least 70% in US dollars, or perhaps in gold.

The remaining 30% can be settled using oil resources.

……

After seven days of difficult negotiations, the two sides finally reached an agreement that the average price of a Dongfeng-3 medium-range ballistic missile would be US$220 million.

Saudi Arabia purchased a total of 36 Dongfeng-3 medium-range ballistic missiles.

It is not purchasing a batch of missiles, but a complete set of strategic deterrence capabilities.

With the Dongfeng-3 medium-range ballistic missile, Saudi Arabia's influence in the Gulf region has greatly increased.

No need to live in constant fear, worrying about those "crazy" neighboring countries.

"Rashid, thank you to Saudi Arabia for recognizing our Dongfeng-3 medium-range ballistic missile."

"Thank you, Mr. Qian!"

Qian Huaijin and Rashid signed their names on the contract.

Then we shook hands!

To make the contract more convincing, Rashid also had Xue Rui from the Harbin Aviation Administration Industry Bureau sign it.

Upon seeing this, Xue Rui signed his name on the contract without hesitation.

You can get paid for simply signing your name.

why not!

Sign it! Sign it hard!

"Mr. Qian, when will the first batch of Dongfeng-3 medium-range ballistic missiles be delivered?"

This is the issue that Rashid and other high-ranking Saudi officials are most concerned about.

They urgently need the Dongfeng-3 medium-range ballistic missile to "bolster their image" and deter surrounding countries.

When others suspect you have a powerful weapon, you'd better have one.

This is similar to the Persian Empire in later times.

America: I suspect you have it, and you'd better have it.

……

Qian Huaijin turned and looked at Xue Rui beside him.

Seeing this, Xue Rui said directly, "Because your country is going to ship the goods and make arrangements secretly this time, it will take a little longer."

"The first batch of missiles, approximately eight Dongfeng-3 medium-range ballistic missiles, will be delivered within six months."

"As for the initial missile launch silos, as well as the instructors and engineers, they will depart from Yan State and head to Sha State within a week."

Yan Kingdom was even more anxious than Sha Kingdom.

On average, one Dongfeng-3 medium-range ballistic missile costs 220 million US dollars, and 36 missiles have a total value of 7.9 billion US dollars.

It's about eight billion US dollars.

Although Saudi Arabia only paid 70%, or 5.5 billion US dollars, the remainder was paid using oil resources.

But for Yan, this $5.5 billion has given it a significant financial boost.

All departments of Yan State can benefit from this.

But for Yan, this $5.5 billion has given it a significant financial boost.

All departments of Yan State can benefit from this.

With enough US dollars, many things can be done.

Research and development projects that were previously considered for cancellation can now continue to receive funding.

Furthermore, some of the technology, equipment, and facilities that were previously unavailable due to lack of funds can now be purchased.

In short, having money makes things much more feasible.

Upon hearing Xue Rui's reply, Rashid's face broke into a bright smile.

That's really fast.

This perfectly meets Saudi Arabia's current needs.

"Okay, our Saudi Arabia will arrange for someone to liaise with you then."

Rashid was quite satisfied.

Qian Huaijin asked the question that Xue Rui was very concerned about.

"Rashid, was the first settlement payment deposited into our bank account?"

This is not just the issue that Xue Rui is most concerned about.

Even the top leaders of Yan State are concerned about this issue.

"The first payment will be deposited into your overseas account tomorrow, no later than three days."

If Yan doesn't drag its feet, neither will Sha.

Saudi Arabia desperately needs the Dongfeng-3 medium-range ballistic missile to protect its territory and its people.

……

After chatting for a while, Qian Huaijin, Xue Rui, and others saw Rashid and the other Saudi representatives off from Dong'an International Trade Co., Ltd.

Once the convoy disappeared from sight, everyone cheered and jumped for joy.

This is not an order worth hundreds of millions of dollars.

It was a mega-order worth 7.9 billion US dollars.

Yan Guo was able to reap substantial profits from this.

It wasn't originally that expensive, but Qian Huaijin drove the price up indefinitely, taking advantage of Saudi Arabia's desire for the Dongfeng-3 medium-range ballistic missile.

This directly led to cooperation with Saudi Arabia.

Yan Kingdom wants money!

Saudi Arabia wants the Dongfeng-3 medium-range ballistic missile.

The two sides quickly reached an agreement, each getting what they needed.

"Grandpa Xue, it's up to you now. Our Dong'an International Trade Company has completed most of the work."

Qian Huaijin spoke to Xue Rui with great enthusiasm.

"Thank you all for your hard work. I've seen it all. I've already spoken with Mr. Qian, and we'll give everyone an extra month's bonus."

Xue Rui announced the good news to the group of employees from Dong'an International Trade Company standing nearby.

"Long live!"
