Chapter 54 System Vulnerabilities
Gansu, Lanzhou.
The central city and transportation hub in the northwest region are the location of the Lanzhou Military Region, one of the seven major military regions in China. It can be said that this is a military city. In the era of abundant grain storage, many hills in the Gaolan Mountains were hollowed out and various military supplies were stored.
Until now, many ammunition depots are still in the mountains and are guarded by specialized soldiers. The exercises conducted every year consume a large amount of ammunition, but until now, these stored military supplies have not been consumed.
Even if you can still eat pork from the 1970s, you can imagine how much military supplies were stored here back then.
Binhe Road, a particularly beautiful green corridor, is an excellent place for young men and women to fall in love and travel. Zhang Bao and Kuaiban both said: Let’s talk about love and love you to Binhe Road. Binhe Road is long and long, so how many young people have helped you; if you are intimate, you can say it to your heart's content, you will not miss such a good opportunity!
Unfortunately, Prince Shi and Xiao Yuanchao who were walking on Binhe Avenue did not have that much leisure. They were very hungry and hungry.
"Boss, I still have 200 grain coupons." Xiao Yuanchao took out the food coupons he had accumulated for a long time, took out the food coupons he had accumulated and handed them to Prince Shi and said, "Can the food coupons beef noodles be exchanged?"
"Yes!" Prince Shi nodded affirmatively.
"But why don't I believe it?" Xiao Yuanchao looked puzzled.
The special-A troops use all the food coupons, and they are useless after taking them out. Not to mention buying a bowl of beef noodles, no one can take a look even if they are thrown on the ground.
When Prince Shi brought Xiao Yuanchao out, he only had a few dozen yuan in his body, but there were quite a few food coupons. What could he do for a few dozen yuan? After getting off the train and getting on the bus, he spent all his money halfway.
"You don't know this." Prince Shi showed a mysterious smile and whispered to Xiao Yuanchao: "The food coupons of the Special A troops are just a piece of waste paper in the eyes of many people, but they are extremely precious in the eyes of some people. Usually, a piece of food coupons of the Special A troops can be exchanged for 100 yuan, and your 200 yuan grain coupons can be exchanged for 20,000 yuan. And I have 1,000 yuan grain coupons here, enough to exchange for 100,000 yuan."
"Can the food coupons be exchanged for money?" Xiao Yuanchao's eyes widened, with an incredible expression on his face.
"Nonsense." Prince Shi said with a smile: "Base No. 49 is mainly a base for basic learning and research. In addition, the Special A troops have many bases. Some of the researched things are very common in the Special A troops, but if they are equipped with conventional troops, they are definitely high-tech. Therefore, many conventional troops are willing to purchase some gadgets developed by the Special A troops and then use them as their own patents, and then apply for assembly of the troops. However, if you buy those gadgets, you must use food coupons."
"Can this still happen?" Xiao Yuanchao frowned and said, "This link will cause trouble."
Any independent economic system will have loopholes, such as North Korea.
North Korea is a closed economic system, and the government has always suppressed the open economic market. However, this suppression has not had much effect. In this closed economic system, the first thing that appears is to exchange goods for goods, followed by smuggling. When North Korea's currency inflation reaches a certain level, when senior officials use RMB and US dollars as the main trading currency, this economic system has already declared collapse.
By the same token, when the economic system of the T-A troops is invaded by external forces, some trends that are different from those in society will arise. When this loophole is slowly opened and expanded, T-A troops will inevitably be unable to maintain their current purity.
"No." Prince Shi shook his head and said, "This kind of exchange is a licensed exchange, which is carried out when the Special A troops allow it. For example, if you build a gun barrel, it can greatly improve the accuracy and distance of the design. If you need to assemble the troops, it will require a huge amount of funds. The research of the Special A troops is not to assemble the troops on a large scale, but only to use it yourself. When a certain kind of research can assemble the troops and get allowed, it will choose to sell it to the conventional troops, so that the conventional troops will choose to assemble or not. The sold food coupons will continue to be in the next stage of research and development."
"Repay funds?" Xiao Yuanchao said thoughtfully.
"Haha, that's right!" Prince Shi laughed loudly, "You must know that the fundamental reason for the economic system of the Special A troops is the food coupons that everyone distributes every month, which is the basis for producing food coupons. Under this fundamental premise, under the actual situation of survival, whoever can earn more food coupons will make money. Most of the researchers at Base No. 49 are poor and rich. Under such ecological conditions, it can be easily determined whose research is more valuable. There is no doubt that Taotao, who cannot support the mud, is the jingling of the poor, and who will buy a pile of scrap iron?"
Xiao Yuanchao understood the words of Prince Shi, meaning that the Special A troops adopted a special trading method. This trading method can enable transactions between research results and conventional troops, thereby saving investment in research projects.
Whoever researches the most practical things will receive a huge amount of research funds and continue to study their own things. In other words, this is the survival of researchers. Without funds, all research cannot be started.
"Can I make such a deal?" Xiao Yuanchao asked.
"Of course it's OK!" Prince Shi nodded and asked with a smile: "You don't know how to do research, how can you do this business?"
Xiao Yuanchao grinned and said nothing.
His brain was running at high speed: there were many guns in Anshan, but he still lived in Dingdang Street. There were many people doing research on the left and right, but they were so poor that they were poor... They had research that could be taken out in their hands. If they could convince them to sell them and I would draw the share from the middle, I would be able to support my brother's mechanical exoskeleton research.
"Boss!" Xiao Yuanchao's eyes emitted a scorching light and asked Prince Shi: "How much does a barrel cost? How much does a stock that can reduce recoil? The trigger? The entire gun?"
In an instant, Xiao Yuanchao thought of an excellent business: arms.
Base No. 49 has many researched on light weapons, including tanks, artillery, mines and even missiles. Sell missiles to second artillery, tanks to armored divisions, light weapons to conventional forces, and landmines to border forces...
"The price depends on the research results, but it will never be cheap." Prince Shi looked at Xiao Yuanchao curiously and said, "What do you want to do?"
"Hehe, nothing." Xiao Yuanchao smiled and touched his stomach and said, "Boss, I'm hungry, let's change the money and buy beef noodles to eat."
"Okay, exchange for money and buy beef noodles to eat. Let me tell you, Lanzhou beef noodles are unique, with one, two, three, four green, and the thickness of the noodles is also divided into detailed divisions, including capillaries, two, two pillars, and leek leaves..."
