"About the gun question? Haha, I would like to ask, how much does it cost for your factory to produce a replica Thompson submachine gun?" Hu Yizhou asked rhetorically.

"This..." The middle-aged man's face darkened, Hu Yizhou's question was a bit over the line.

"Haha, money? What's the use of money? I don't need money now, I need equipment! You know the deal I made with the Germans, right? A set of blueprints for a universal machine gun, and I exchanged two bullet production lines..."

"Well... I have to go back and report to the top! I wonder how much money you need to give us this information?"

"That's all. As for whether your factory will exchange for the production process data of this gun, please let us know as soon as possible!" After Hu Yizhou finished speaking, he took a sip of tea and waited for the middle-aged man to reply.

"The main thing is that this gun can be produced directly from the barrel of the Mosin-Nagant rifle. One barrel can be cut in half to make two guns! In this way, the cost will be reduced!"

The price calculated by Hu Yizhou is based on PPS-41, which is also based on the current market price. The main reason is that the cost of the drum is a bit high, and the production is also difficult. Otherwise, why does the Jiuzhai Arsenal only produce 35-round magazines?

"Do you know how much the production cost of my Hu submachine gun is? Let me tell you, it's only seventy oceans, and this is the price of producing the barrel and the drum by myself!"

In fact, the biggest advantage between the Bobosha submachine gun and the Thompson submachine gun is that its structure is simple and low-cost, and its performance is not much different! There is a word called cost-effectiveness, and this is what it means!

"Okay, you asked about the price just now, so I'll tell you!" Hu Yizhou saw this man sweating and decided to throw out the biggest price killer.

You are not afraid of not knowing the goods, but you are afraid of comparing goods! Comparing one person with another will lead to death, but comparing goods with goods has to be thrown away! Listening to Hu Yizhou's introduction, this person felt that the submachine gun he was proud of was really not good! Originally, it was not good enough.

I thought it was beautiful that the Jinsui Army was equipped with a large number of submachine guns. But after hearing this, why do you feel that these submachine guns are no longer good?

The key is that the numbers listed by Hu Yizhou are very accurate! He may not have heard of the saying that there is no harm without comparison, but he understands the truth!

The middle-aged man's forehead was sweating a little. He thought it would be a very easy negotiation, but Hu Yizhou listed a lot of data in a big way. Just these data made him dizzy!

"Ahem, this..."

"Also, the bullets we use are Mauser pistol bullets. If you want to increase the power of the bullet, you can also use the pistol bullets from Mao Xiong! And the production cost of these two bullets is much lower, right? At least

We need to save a lot of raw materials, right? And there need to be more sources of bullets, right? And..."

"Look at my Hu submachine gun again. It weighs much less both empty and bullets! With the same drum, a gun is much lighter than a Thomson, right? This is an improvement in itself!"

"Okay, let's exclude price and performance factors. How much does this Thompson submachine gun weigh when empty? How much does a .45 pistol bullet weigh? It's heavier than my Hu submachine gun, right? With such a heavy gun and heavy bullets, a soldier can

How much ammunition should you carry? Even after pressing the big drum, soldiers with weak physical strength will not be able to play it, right?"

"Um, this..."

"Also, what is a gun? A gun is the life of a soldier! This Thompson submachine gun is in the hands of the soldiers. What will happen if it malfunctions when shooting with the Japanese? But my Hu submachine gun is extremely dangerous.

Fewer breakdowns and even maintenance is easy!”

"Hahaha, the production of this Hu submachine gun is very simple! You know that my family has an arsenal, and now the main product of my arsenal is the Hu submachine gun! Its production process is very simple, with far fewer parts, and the production efficiency is very high

High!"

"Well, that's right! We have limited conditions, and the materials for some parts are really rare, so we can only use substitute materials! This process is indeed a bit more complicated. Is your Hu's submachine gun very simple?" The middle-aged man didn't think so.

Lie again. Lie in front of experts, isn't that making you feel uncomfortable?

"Also, what I understand is that due to material problems, the submachine guns produced by your factory often malfunction. Am I right? Also, the production process of Thompson submachine guns is very complicated, right? The output is not high, right?"

Hu Yizhou stared at the middle-aged man and asked.

"Haha, you may not believe the cost of my Hu submachine gun, but it is indeed much lower! Let's not talk about it for now. I have seen and played with your imitation Thompson submachine gun. It is easy to use.

It’s easy to use, but the accuracy doesn’t seem to be better than my submachine gun, right?”

"Oh, it seems that I sold it a little cheap!" Hu Yizhou sighed secretly, and he knew why his submachine guns were so popular. Even those who run arsenals calculate the price like this, let alone those generals who lead troops to fight?

"So what? Is it possible that your Hu submachine gun is cheaper than this Thompson submachine gun?" The middle-aged man seemed to really not know the cost of this Hu submachine gun, and calculated the cost based on its performance.

"Do you know what this Thompson submachine gun is called in Yingjiang? Chicago typewriter! This explains the problem!" Hu Yizhou talked eloquently.

"With this cost, not to mention our domestic troops, even the rich Yingjiang is reluctant to part with a large amount of equipment! But the Heihei people in Yingjiang's family like it very much, they are rich!"

Hu Yizhou had already known about these prices, so he just came out of his mouth.

"Tell me, is this price correct? If my guess is correct, the cost for your factory to produce a Thompson imitation gun is about 700 oceans!"

"I won't tell you the additional costs of importing various raw materials for your factory, nor will I tell you the additional costs of workers and equipment. Just this 208 U.S. dollars alone is more than 600 oceans when converted into oceans!"

"As for our imitation, the production cost is much higher! Let's look at the current foreign exchange exchange ratio. One US dollar can be exchanged for four yuan of legal tender, right? Dayang will be a little more expensive, but it will still maintain one dollar for three.

An ocean level!"

"Ha, I knew you didn't want to mention it! But you have to know that I am in the military industry and I know the production costs very well! The production cost of the original Thompson submachine gun in the Yingjiang factory is 208 US dollars!"

"Since we are all compatriots and we are all fighting against the Japanese invaders, I will suffer some losses. I only need a bullet production line with a daily output of 10,000 Mauser pistol bullets and ten tons of high-quality gun barrel steel! In addition, I also need your help.

Transport these equipment back to your hometown! What do you think?”
