Chapter 96: This Is How We Make Friends
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Beijing, At the State Guesthouse.
Tang Rui didn’t go to Beijing again for leisure. It was the Middle East.
He couldn’t be bothered to care about others, but since the Middle Easterners were here, he had to come.
What a joke. With the godly tycoon around, you couldn’t possibly give them second-class treatment, could you?
Did you not want to make a living?
This time, Tang Rui came over not only to sell things, but also to receive gifts at the same time.
Prince Salim said that he would give him a gift.
It was all very mysterious.
Until now, he still didn’t know what the other party was prepared to give him.
After a while, Prince Salim’s motorcade arrived at the state guesthouse, and the other party also got out of the car.
“Your Highness, welcome back.”
“My friend, How glad am I to see you again!”
After greeting each other, the two of them entered the hotel.
“My friend, thank you very much for what happened last time.
“Your country’s weapons are too useful.
“I’m here to purchase another batch of weapons.”
Prince Salim probably knew why he was so popular.
Evidently, after entering the house, he expressed that he was there to throw coins.
“Our weapons are for the sake of maintaining world peace, unlike Yingchan, who only wants to make money.”
Tang Rui stood on the moral high ground and pointed at Yingchan.
After Prince Salim heard this, he expressed that there was nothing wrong with it.
After all, by comparing the selling prices of the firearms on both sides, one could tell who was here to harvest leeks and collect insurance fees, and who was selling them at a tearful discount.
“My friend, I’m in charge of this purchase.
Therefore, I’ve decided to purchase more weapons from you.”
‘Too sets of integrated fire-fighting drone systems?”
“Cough cough… He didn’t need that many. He only needed 40 heavy armor sets and another 20 sets.
I mean, does your company have any other products?” Prince Salim said awkwardly.
It wasn’t that he couldn’t afford 100 sets.
There was no need to buy so many.
“Other products.”
Tang Rui had a headache. Their company didn’t have any other products to sell either.
The drone could not be sold.
That thing was highly confidential.
What else could he buy?
There was nothing.
Could he purchase a Gatling?
“Yes, no matter what it is, 1 will buy a batch,” Prince Salim said directly.
They didn’t even buy some.
They bought an entire batch.
We Middle Easteners make friends in such a simple and unadorned way.
“Uh… My company had previously developed a reconnaissance drone.”
“Give me ten.”
“There’s also our company’s newly developed field command RV.”
“Give me 20 cars.”
“Is there nothing else?”
Prince Salim saw that Tang Rui was speechless and was a little puzzled.
It was not even close.
Was he looking down on the Middle East?
“That… Actually, I think it’s meaningless for you to buy things like this.
If you lack anything, you can leave it to our company to develop. We guarantee that it will be of international first-class standards.”
Tang Rui was also helpless.
Don’t ask me what 1 have. Just tell me what you need.
It was targeted at high-end customers.
We can do a private custom-made project and tailor it to our needs.
“Sure, then we’ll give you 500 million dollars in research funding. We’ll buy it after the finished product is produced.”
Prince Salim didn’t think much of it after listening to it. He directly expressed that there was no problem and that he would also give 500 million dollars in research funding.
“What do you need?”
Tang Rui asked.
“We need everything, my friend,” Prince Salim said indifferently.

Tang Rui was made silent again.
Did he think too much? Did he think that I was collecting protection fees?
“No, what I said is true. Whatever you need, I can completely tailor it for you,” Tang Rui said very sincerely.
“Yes, I know, my friend. I’m serious. Just do as you see fit,” Prince Salim replied sincerely.
Tang Rui curled his lips.
This was what annoyed him the most.
I asked you to order, but you said whatever.
Who the f*ck knew what you wanted to eat?
And so arbitrarily as well.
“Alright, friend, that’s all. Let’s talk about something else.”
“Sure.”
“Thank you for your help last time. I’ve specially left you a gift this time.” “What gift?”
“A yacht.”
Yachts.
Why would he want that thing?
Jinling wasn’t near the sea. How could he put the yacht in Xuanwu Lake?
This guy was really bad at gifting.
“And this yacht is a modified warship. How about it?” Prince Salim said with a smile.
Tang Rui nodded. He had to give face to the tycoon.
“Very good. 1 like this gift very much.”
“It’s good that you like it. I wanted to give you a sports car, but it’s too cheap.
“Then, I thought of sending you a plane, but the private plane I ordered will take more than a year to be delivered.
“Therefore, I thought about it and decided to give you this newly renovated yacht.”
“Thank you,” Tang Rui said politely.
The two of them chatted casually for a while, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.
One was here to make friends.
One was here to earn money.
Everyone got along very well.
That night, Tang Rui accompanied Prince Salim to have a meal at the state guesthouse before leaving the capital.
He had to go back and prepare things.
The reconnaissance drones were still fine. With the blueprints, they could be produced at any time.
Field Commander RV.
Now, he did not even have the blueprints. He still had to think of a way to find an OEM.
Back at the company, Tang Rui got someone to find a car interior decoration company, the best one available.
When a military vehicle appeared, it was impossible for it to have its own luxurious interior.
If the Middle East had placed an order directly for them, it would have been fine.
Now, Tang Rui wanted to find a contract worker.
He would definitely not agree.
Therefore, Tang Rui could only purchase the foreign trade department’s 8X8 off-road command vehicle and then modify its interior.
After all, it was a foreign trade version, and many things could be dismantled.
When Tang Rui placed the order, he directly let them dismantle it, not even needing to install it.
As long as they sent the naked car and some necessary equipment over, it would be fine.
That afternoon, the people from more than a dozen luxury car interior decoration companies in Jinling arrived.
Tang Rui rented a conference room in the conference center to meet them.
“This vehicle is an 8X8 field command vehicle. Your order is to transform this off-road command vehicle into an off-road command vehicle.
“I only have three requirements: luxury, comfort, and class.
“You can use the best materials on the market and buy luxury goods to decorate it.
“As long as you reserve a space for the command desk and communication equipment, you can do whatever you want with the rest.”
Tang Rui projected the internal photos of the foreign trade department’s off-road command vehicle onto the big screen so that they could see it more carefully.
“President Tang, how do we bid?”
“There’s no need to bid. Each of you can give me a design and renderings.
“I will choose one to cooperate with..”
