Chapter 196 Buying Robots
"Josie, the five million robots you want are ready. To be honest, even if I want to raise so many robots at once, it is very difficult, so nearly three million of them are second-hand. But it doesn't affect the use, please don't mind." In the trader communication video, Lawrence said after trading five million NS robots to Josie.
He didn't fool Josie. Although in my robot world, almost all the robots in the world are produced by the American Robotics Company controlled by Lawrence, it is not very difficult to prepare five million robots.
The production of robots takes time, and the various raw materials and equipment also take time, and it is impossible to change them directly.
Josie only gave one week, which is not enough time to produce new ones.
So counting warehouse inventory and newly produced ones, Lawrence only had enough for two million new robots.
However, these two million are the latest models of the NS-5 series that have resumed production.
Although Wiki, a super artificial intelligence, almost used the NS-5 robot to set off an omnic crisis before, but the main problem was Wiki. In addition to the intelligent control, the basic functions are the same as those of the previous models and will not affect the use.
But the remaining three million can only be replenished with second-hand goods of old models.
These were all eliminated for various reasons and were originally intended to be discarded.
Why discard instead of dismantling? Just look at the car cemeteries and aircraft cemeteries in the United States. On the one hand, the cost of dismantling is too high. On the other hand, if there are special needs, they can be reused after a little repair.
For example, the current situation where Josie is in a hurry to ask for goods.
"In addition, the 100,000 military robots you want are also in it. The ones in the red trucks are that as long as they pass DNA verification, they will only listen to your orders. In addition, this data disk contains military robots. running program." Before Josie could answer, Lawrence added in a low voice.
In fact, before communicating with Josie, he had already turned off the smart sensing device in the room, and the company's newly launched artificial intelligence, although not as smart as Wiki, will not make any more fools anyway, so there is no need to Lower your voice.
It's just that he was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of well ropes, and now Lawrence still has a little shadow, so he has this attitude.
After all, if he was lucky enough to be selected by the plane trading beacon, he should be as cool as his old buddy Dr. Lanny at this moment.
"Of course I understand this, as long as it can be used, in addition to the agreed transaction gold, the extra blue containers are filled with vibrating gold. I think you who have become super soldiers should like it." That!" Josie was not surprised by what Lawrence said. As a businessman, Josie naturally understands that industrial production is not such a simple matter, even though the world where Lawrence lives is already very advanced in technology, and the human labor force is basically already Replaced by robots, the work efficiency has reached the extreme.
However, it is still not a simple matter to add up various links such as raw material procurement, storage and transportation.
This is also the reason why he had obtained the robot production technology from Lawrence before, but instead of producing it himself, he asked Lawrence to buy it in stock.
Because the first-generation robot production line in Austria is still on the drawing.
Although Josie has used the various technical materials obtained from Yuri to make up lessons for Austrian scientists and engineers about the fighter jet, but compared with the previous technical materials, the various technical materials obtained from Lawrence are more advanced. Too much.
Even under the mobilization of the government, various scientists in Austria have worked together, but it is not possible to do so in a short time if they want to understand so much technical information.
And even if you want to follow suit, you have to let the basic industry catch up first.
So in this case, if Josie wants enough robots, he can only purchase them from Lawrence.
The world Yuri lives in is not good either. Although Yuri has restored a good industrial system, the labor force is still too small, so let alone help Josie produce, he also wants to purchase some.
It's just the first batch of 5 million. Josie himself is not sure whether it is enough, and naturally it is impossible to sell it to Yuri and other planes.
It is precisely because of similar reasons that Josie even expected that Lawrence might not be able to deliver all the goods.
It turns out that Lawrence really got it all together. Even if 3 million of them are old models, as long as they can be used, Josie will not dislike them.
As for the purpose of purchasing so many robots? Of course it is for the development of the upcoming Java.
He doesn't like the natives of Java, and he plans to drive them to the surrounding land, but there are only tens of thousands of Indians who are going to immigrate there. What's the point?
German? They are used as military personnel, and the number is limited. It is impossible for them to carry out infrastructure construction while undertaking military tasks.
Austrians? Now there is a gap in Austria's own domestic labor force.
And Josie does not intend to let too many Austrians get involved in Java, which will arouse the vigilance of the surrounding Britain, the Netherlands, Australia and the United States.
As for the number of Xia descendants living in this land, although there are quite a few, it was only two million during this period, which is far less than the large number of later generations. Compared to the total population of more than four to five million and the huge land area of Java as a whole Speaking of it, it's a drop in the bucket.
In this case, only robots can be used.
Listen to commands, high work efficiency and easy to hide.
Not to mention the 100,000 military robots. Although Germans were hired as mercenaries, and a large number of personnel from Austria and Blackwater International were deliberately placed as a command system to facilitate control, Josie still could not fully trust them.
Especially when something special needs to be done, the human army is not suitable to come forward.
As for me, there is no doubt about whether there are military robots in the robot world.
Why did the army not show up for a long time when Wikipedia was in trouble in the movie, but a policeman was needed to save the world? It is because the military robots in the army were also controlled by Wiki, disarming the army.
So the army did not show a small face until the end of the film.
"This is vibrating gold? Oh... this is really a beautiful metal!" Lawrence waved his hand, and a transparent container the size of a bucket filled with some blue substance appeared in his hand. It was the raw vibrating gold ore.
When the transaction was completed at the beginning, Lawrence only glanced at the transaction list on the system, and didn't notice that there was vibrating gold in it. After all, in this transaction, Josie mainly traded large quantities of metal raw materials.
Although in the era of Lawrence, human spaceflight technology has also been greatly developed. For example, there is a scene in the movie where a large-screen advertisement on the street introduces the interstellar travel of the new space shuttle X-82.
But after going to Josie’s understanding, I realized that the so-called interstellar travel is actually only to Saturn, and it takes a very long time. Basically, it takes more than a year to go back and forth.
There is no doubt that this speed is already very fast compared to the technological level of Josie's previous world, but it is still in its infancy for the real interstellar civilization.
So for Lawrence, a large number of relatively cheap metal resources are still of great value.
For Josie, mineral resources are the most important thing for him. Through his transactions with Daenerys and Yuri every year, except for some special products, the largest amount is all kinds of rare metal minerals, which are the so-called Rare earths are all finished metal ingots after preliminary smelting.
After several years of development, the territory of Daenerys in the world of Game of Thrones has basically achieved early industrialization, and various minerals have naturally begun to be mined in large quantities.
Not to mention Yuri's world, the whole primitive earth.
These resources can be said to have saved a lot of costs for Josie’s companies, especially Austrian companies, and also earned a lot of foreign exchange—this is one of the reasons why Austria’s economic development is faster than that of the United States.
Otherwise, according to the normal law of economic development, even if Austria, which is relatively poor in resources, has technology, it will not be able to develop so fast.
Now, these relatively cheap mineral resources are equally important to Lawrence.
For example, in this transaction project, there are as many as dozens of various rare metal resources used as the cost of the robot, so it is not for Josie's reminder, Lawrence will naturally not notice the vibration gold mixed in it.
With Josie's reminder, Lawrence only needed to move his mind, and Zhenjin appeared in his hands.
"I have never been stingy with trading partners who cooperate well! Come on, Lawrence, produce as many robots as possible. Before my own robot production line is rolled out in large numbers, how much you can earn from me is all up to you. Already!" Josie smiled and reminded Lawrence, who was obsessed with Zhenjin.
It's not that Josie is stupid, deliberately sending money to Lawrence.
It is about doing business with back and forth. One-sided dumping is not a good thing, and it is always necessary to give the other party a little sweetness.
Besides, for a long period of time in the future, the powerful industrial production capacity of Lawrence World is indeed what Josie needs.
"I understand, I will build more production lines as soon as possible to increase the output of robots!" Lawrence understood what Josie meant, and immediately made a promise.
The large amount of raw materials obtained in this transaction is enough to bring the company's robot production to another level.
"Boss, the plane is about to land!" At this moment, Vito's reminder came from outside the door.
Yes, Josie is not on the Margot cruise ship at this time, but on a small plane flying from Australia to Atauro Island.
The Margot and the **** fleet are just a cover, with neither ammunition nor soldiers on them.
The hired troops will then be transported in batches to Atauro Island in the north of East Timor next door to Java through the planes mobilized by Continental Airlines-there are fast and big jet airliners and transport planes, who cares? What a fool to use a ship to transport troops.
Of course, the reason why this can be done is mainly because Josie has a system warehouse, so there is no need to transport all kinds of military supplies needed for the war through normal channels. Armed directly on the spot on the line.
At the end of the war, there was a large amount of American equipment, and he still hasn't sold them all yet.
The population of Daenerys' world is only so small. Even if it has been attacking the city, the number of its troops is only a million, and it can't afford that much equipment.
And with the process of industrialization, Daenerys has also begun to manufacture some munitions independently. Although the industrial level is not up to standard and cannot produce armaments at the level of World War II, it is still relatively easy to equip some second-line troops at the level of the 19th century. More than enough.
So now Josie's biggest customer in terms of arms has become Cai Lin, who is constantly expanding the army in the legendary world of ghosts and ghosts.
However, in Cai Lin’s world, she can also produce equipment from the First World War, so she only purchased some equipment from Josie for use by direct troops. Battle old equipment.
Therefore, there is still one-third of the huge amount of American equipment that Josie bought before, which is at least enough for millions of people, and there is a tendency to be unsalable.
The number of German mercenaries recruited by Blackwater International for this Java War is only a few hundred thousand, and it is still impossible to use them up.
But it’s okay, when little Abidis grows up, you can sell it to him.
The orcs are brave and good at fighting, can they deal with human soldiers one against three?
Hehe, the big guns are **** fucking.
Since the game can be released by the entire Iron Horde.
Then it’s not an exaggeration for Josie to help little Abidis and the entire Iron Alliance?
Wrath of the Lich King, right? Then let's go to the robot.
Just to see which one is stronger, the first natural disaster or the second natural disaster.
While Josie's thinking was diverging, the plane he took had already landed on Atauro Island.
East Timor during this period was a colony of Portugal.
Before the issue of Magang, Portugal had already rejected Josie once.
So now that Josie is uniting with the Dutch government to temporarily lease Atauro Island from Portugal, it is naturally impossible for the other party to refuse.
Otherwise, after the cooperation between the Netherlands and Josie officially resolved the Java issue, if they directly attack East Timor, which is close at hand, the Portuguese will have nothing to do.
Especially during this period, Portugal, like Spain, was in a state of semi-isolation by Europe, and its relationship with the United States was slightly better.
It would be fine if there was a conflict with a country other than Europe, but if it conflicts with a European bully-level country like the Netherlands, the Americans will not help them.
But now Atauro Island has nothing but a small airport.
The new type of jet aircraft has relatively high requirements for the airport.
So Josie came here in advance to build the airport.
With the millions of robots purchased from Lawrence, building a temporary airport is an easy task.
