"Rudolf, Rudolf, Rudolf, it seems you have a more interesting personality than I thought." Even after pushing on all of his personal boundaries. It seems he trusts me and actually wants to repay his debt, maybe some j.a.panese blood in him" I chuckled. I have just transported here, means no one has any ulterior motives. But dammit, That service for writing a book from memory is costly, 3000 TUs. Sadly due to the limits, I was only allowed to write fully about the Panzer I, II, III. On the Panzer IV I only had the beginning Variants and with the tiger, I only have the very first blueprints. With the King Tigers cha.s.sis only being shown. The Panther has only the very first Ausf. And with the Maus page only having the very introduction to the idea of Super heavy tanks. "Luckily all information I read about the generals was there."Now I will have to prepare for conflict, which means a High command, Supplies, Military bases, etc. "I can already prepare for the future by making some criteria for construction to withstand a nuclear blasts, Bunker buster bombs, MOABS, Biochemical WMDs, etc" I checked some positives and started to write down some things that have to be built. So a Bunker complex would be the best, I could take some standards from the Maginot line and incorporate it into my own base. I will discuss this in detail later with the company and Rudolf, as I need some people with expertise in this area. The construction will take time, but If we spread it over about 30 years that should be fine.
After making some preparations I made my way to the train station and train, The meeting with the higher-ups of the company and the architects will be later today.
"Why is it so hard to recall all details of WW2 I should know it best? I even read on how to run organisations, but I have no idea on how to run this organisation 100% perfectly, The best way would be to gather talents. The best being in the Military,"I must also gain information from the highest chain of command in Germany, but how am I going to get there?" Many ideas fill my head, but none are satisfactory. "I will talk to Rudolf About this when he arrives and when the deal is closed." I said to myself, I entered the train and made my way to Kiefersfelden. Upon arriving I noticed another train unloading basic construction Material.
I walk towards the temporary construction site where construction materials are being dumped. I already requested large amounts of t.i.tanium Alloy for research purposes, "I will need t.i.tanium to develop light jet aircraft, better planes, engines, etc" I sigh deeply before heading towards the main building in the middle where the meeting will be held."I am only good at remembering things that happened in history, not in negotiations, how am I going to get the upper hand in this deal?" I entered the reception area with big strides, Rudolf was talking to some people before I arrived, seeing me he quickly came to me. ""Kyle I have been waiting for you. Come with me,"" Rudolf said and beckoned me over.
We went up the stairs leading to a big build office area, ""I will need your help in this area Rudolf"", I said softly, ""I am not very knowledgeable on Market prices."" I continued awkwardly, ""No problems Kyle, you just state what needs to be done I will see if we get a fair deal out of it, I have dealt with these companies before in the Military, so I do know quite a lot in this area"" Rudolf replied.
We entered the Office, the CEO of Philipp Holzmann was exactly on the other side we are sitting, on the left of me as an accountant who writes down the requirements and the prices and on the right was an empty s.p.a.ce for Rudolf. The CEO stood up and walked towards he extended his hand to shake mine.""Greetings Mister Kyle, it is an honour for us to find such an esteemed businessman coming to us for a construction project."" The CEO said all smiles.""It is nice to meet you, but let"s skip the pleasantries."" I said before continuing ""This construction is of utmost importance, including the secrecy. I am even willing to increase the budget if necessary to meet the standards."" I was very serious at this moment, clearly showing the utmost importance of this project to me. The CEO quickly changed his att.i.tude as well to a real businessman.
Negotiations started immediately, ""Sir Kyle, we are the understanding that the project is a military/ research facility. But we barely know the specifics, can you elaborate on us what you exactly want."" The Architect said on the left of the CEO. ""The requirements will probably be the Highest you will have ever seen, and when I say this I am not joking,"" I said in all seriousness. The architect looked at me before speaking ""Kyle, we cla.s.sify military structures in certain categories:
1. Defensive Grade
2. Offensive Grade
3. Logistics
4. Support
5. Storage
6. Production
7. R&D
8. Strongholds
These Categories each have a grade extending from E to S level, with S level being the highest grade and it shows the capabilities of the military structure in that area. For example, if we take the Maginot our company would give it:
1. Level S(Defensive Grade)
2. Level D(Offensive Grade)
3. Level A(Logistics)
4. Level B(Support)
5. Level S(Storage)
6. Level C(Production)
7. Level E(R&D)
8. Level S(Strongholds)
This gives you a grade 9 fort, with the highest being a grade 12 fort if all categories are S level. We calculate this through giving each letter a number: S = 1.5, A= 1.5, B= 1, C=1, D=0.5, E= 0.5. With this after you have finished your demands we can also give you a graded report."" the Engineer on the Right side said.
As I stated beforehand: ""The requirements will be at S level, if not I require you to help me make them S level. Now, I shall go over the details of what my facility needs and has to be capable of, I will use the same categories as your company:
I am not requesting a bunker complex yet, I need a good st.u.r.dy base of Operations, which will need barracks, supply depot, armoury, etc. It will need the basics of any military camp, some underground ammunitions storage would be necessary. Other production facilities will be added later over time.
Besides a standard Military base, I would like your company to draft some designs for a Bunker complex in the local area, It must be strong, easy to defend with minimal personnel, storage, and some other facilities.
""That will be done, but any weaponry will need to be provided by you, we cannot deliver any of such weaponry. Bunker design will begin after completing the Military base, the estimated cost would be around 2 Billion Reichsmark, spread over the period of construction. Secrecy must be maintained hence more trusted workers are used which cost more. That is all."" The Accountant answered the CEOs questioning gaze. ""Great!"" I said while standing up to shake hands, ""It is a pleasure to do business with you. Rudolf will come by tomorrow to talk about the details of the base."" I said to people.
I and Rudolf slowly leave after saying goodbye, also picking a time for Rudolf to come by tomorrow to go into more detail about the construction."I was slightly surprised by the price." While we walked together to the hotel in the village of Kiefersfelden, I finally decided to talk about the Panther With Rudolf.
A picture was also made with me in the middle and the Company"s personnel around me, to put in their company for a history of their deals. Rudolf also got one.
