However, the translator must have closely followed Richard's lead, and his true intentions were as clear as day.
"Moreover, Richard wasn't telling the truth; the repairs weren't actually that complicated."
Upon hearing this, Huo Beian was instantly enraged.
"Damn those foreign devils, I knew they were doing it on purpose. They're dragging their feet on fixing it so they can make me buy their stuff again..."
After all, this batch of tanks was imported from the United States, and experts from there were sent to handle maintenance and other matters.
I'm afraid they won't fix it properly, and then I'll have to pay an even higher price to buy it again.
"Honey, do you have any good ideas?"
Song Ning thought for a moment. She remembered reading a report that in 1974, country H was able to develop its first domestically produced main battle tank.
"It won't be long before we have our own self-developed tanks."
Huo Beian was slightly taken aback, looking at her with some disbelief, "Developed it yourself?"
Song Ning nodded.
Huo Beian then took Song Ning to see Commander Qian.
Commander Qian thought for a moment and said, "Try to get Owen away later. Song Ning, do you have any ideas on how to get Richard to fix the tank as soon as possible?"
"Huh? This... is a bit difficult." Song Ning shook her head.
Qian Tuanzi thought for a moment and then said, "If you can accomplish this, there will be a reward."
Song Ning's eyes lit up, and she asked directly, "What reward?"
Commander Qian said, "If you can get Richard to fix it within 24 hours and it doesn't have any problems for two months, I'll give you this amount."
After he finished speaking, he held up two fingers.
Song Ning glanced at it, "Twenty thousand?"
Huo Beian was drinking water when he heard his wife say that, and he couldn't help but spit it out...
Song Ning turned to look at him, "What? Wasn't it 20,000?"
Huo Beian quickly gave her a wink, "The army is frugal, where would they get so much money?"
Commander Qian remained silent, seemingly deep in thought.
"Commander, if I can really succeed in this negotiation, it could save our army millions of dollars in expenses. How about this, I don't want the money. I want to join the cultural troupe. Can you give me a recommendation to apply? Don't worry, I'll take the exam based on my own abilities."
“The performing arts troupe,” Director Qian thought for a moment, “but as long as you get this done, I can help you explain the situation and apply to the organization for eligibility to participate.”
“Okay!” Song Ning looked at Commander Qian. “It’s a deal.”
After saying that, she looked at Huo Beian, who was also impressed by his wife's wisdom.
If it really works out, with my wife's musical instrument skills, she can stay in the performing arts troupe.
That's great!
