Alchemy Greater China

Zheng Tingxiang is in the state of being 'provoked', how can he stand the excitement?

So, he immediately replied: "Why don't you dare? I just don't know, how should you play the bet you mentioned, Young Master Long? What is it about?"

Long Hao smiled and said: "It's very simple, there is a ready-made game in front of you, and it's coming soon..."

Yes, Long Hao resorted to his old method again: bet!

In fact, Long Hao has already noticed the "proudness" in Zheng Tingxiang's body. If he wants to subdue this young boy studying in the United States, he can't do it without showing some real kung fu!

Even without the fuse of today's 'submarine', Long Hao would still think of other ways to convince this mechanical genius!

Unexpectedly, Zheng Tingxiang happened to have a prejudice against submarines, and he was not biased by a single star. Long Hao followed suit and used this "gamble" that was supposed to be promoted to completely subdue this great engineer.

"What kind of ready-made gamble? Master Long, just say it!"

Zheng Tingxiang looked fearless.

"This gamble is actually related to the fate of Kunpeng Shipyard, um, mediocre god, tell Yun Yao!"

Long Hao stroked his chin, and handed over the task of explaining to Rong Shangqin.

I say?

What did I say? Me?

Rao Narong Shangqin was so alert, so he was stunned for a moment. He blinked his small eyes and looked at Long Hao pitifully: What are you talking about?Master, I'm not the roundworm in your stomach, can you give me some hints?

"It's the information I told you the day before yesterday. Here, it's from the north..."

Long Hao gestured upwards with his fingers, and Rong Shangqin immediately understood.

When you understand it, you understand it, but Rong Shangqin's face turned pale, and he asked hesitantly, "This is a military secret, young master, can you tell me?"

"Is there anything you can't say? Anyway, sooner or later you can't hide it from everyone. Say it!"

Long Hao was amused, took a sip of bitter tea, and waved his hands.

"Okay, I'll just say..."

Rong Shangqin sighed, subconsciously looked at the door, because he knew.What he's going to say next... is a big event that can cause panic among the masses.

What big event?

Naturally, there are six first-class battleships in the north that are rushing towards San Francisco like wolves and tigers.

Following Rong Shangqin's words, Zheng Tingxiang's stubborn and loyal head drooped, and his face turned pale: What?Master Long actually sank five American destroyers before?Now, the United States has sent six battleships to kill them from Seattle and ask them for their crimes?

Such a big deal!How can you be so calm?

Still have time to engage in submarine transformation?To engage in submarine trials? !

Zheng Tingxiang felt that he was going crazy, because what Long Hao did was completely beyond his imagination!Long Hao's behavior is the same as when the fire has reached the door, and instead of putting out the fire with the kettle, you run to water the flowers.It's incredible!

"Da da, da da, is there going to be a war soon?"

Unable to hold back, Lao You bumped his teeth up and down, and was the first to shout in horror: "The battleships are coming, 8300-ton battleships, we can't stop them, is Kunpeng Shipyard going to give up?"

yes.Can you not give up?

Not to mention six ships, just one battleship came over.Once it stops outside the port and the long-range artillery on it is fired, the Kunpeng Shipyard will also turn into a sea of ​​flames!Hey, I said, Master Long, you know the news, and you haven't organized the workers to evacuate yet.How did you think about it?

Zheng Tingxiang keeps saying that he wants to leave Kunpeng, but he has feelings for Kunpeng Shipyard in his heart. When he thinks that this promising Chinese shipyard will be destroyed in the flames of war, his heart throbs with pain!

So, so reckless!

How.How could you provoke the U.S. Navy at this time?

Forbearance, haven't you read the masterpieces of Confucianism in my country?

Battleship, six battleships... Hey, wait, isn't it? !

Zheng Tingxiang shook his head sadly. Suddenly, he noticed the problem and quickly raised his head and said, "Master Long, that's not right. Why does the U.S. Navy have battleships on the west coast? Could it be a mistake?"

Zheng Tingxiang has been in the United States for a long time, and he still has a little understanding of the strength of the US Navy. There are not many high-end warships like battleships on the east coast, so how can there be one on the west coast?

Suddenly, Zheng Tingxiang raised a ray of hope, hoping that Long Hao's intelligence made an oolong.

"No mistake, these six battleships... belong to the British Far East Fleet!"

Long Hao smiled, breaking Zheng Tingxiang's last bit of luck.

"British...Far East Fleet?"

Zheng Tingxiang's legs went limp, and he couldn't hold on any longer. He couldn't continue to stand, but fell down on the wooden chair, and muttered: "How can I be good? How can I be born... Hey, this time It's all over, Kunpeng is over, it's hard to get a hopeful Chinese shipbuilding industry..."

The great mechanical engineer who had stayed in the United States for many years was holding his head in pain, drooping and shaking again and again.

The sincerity of this feeling, not to mention Rong Shangqin and Lao You, even Long Hao was a little moved: It seems that this great engineer still has a heart of patriotism and love for the people in his chest!

Long Hao rubbed the bridge of his nose, feeling a little embarrassed that he had sold out so much.

"Ahem, Yunyao, don't get excited. Listen to me, we won't be finished, Kunpeng won't be finished, and China's shipbuilding industry won't be finished. No one here will be finished..." Long Hao walked to Zheng Tingxiang who was bowing his head and sighing. Beside him, he rubbed the engineer's flat head: Well, it feels good, no less than Daimler's bald head!

"The British battleships are all coming, how can it not be finished?"

Zheng Tingxiang raised his face, his eyes were red as if he had been up for three days and three nights, and his words choked up.

"Of course it can't be finished, let's fight him!"

Long Hao shook his fist, hooked left and right, like a boxing champion waiting for the bell to ring: "Yun Yao, do you think those warships parked at the port are praying to Buddha and eating fast?"

Port...how many ships?

Zheng Tingxiang blinked hard, and after thinking it over, he almost sprayed Long Hao with blood: "Master Long, are you joking? It's just a cruiser and three training ships. Compared with battleships, they seem to be When a rabbit meets a lion, it's not at the same level at all!"

Although Zheng Tingxiang doesn't understand military affairs, he has been to England and seen the huge and incomparable battleships in the port of Portsmouth.In his mind, if this kind of battleship came over, it might be able to destroy the four mosquito-like ships without firing a cannon.

"Hehe, of course I won't bet my hope of defeating the enemy on those four battleships..."

Long Hao still had that calm look, fiddled with his finger bones.Said: "To tell you the truth, Yunyao, my magic weapon is Qianlong-1. I will take this submarine and sink all the enemy ships that dare to attack me into the sea!"

What Long Hao said was so ordinary, but this sentence was like a thunderbolt in Zheng Tingxiang's ears!

what? What?

You want to drive that thing that is only 15 meters long to challenge the battleship?

This, this is even more surprising to Zheng Tingxiang than Long Hao using four warships to deal with the incoming enemy!

This is no longer a rabbit fighting a lion, but a mouse fighting an elephant!

"Master Long. Don't be overthinking it!"

Zheng Tingxiang felt that although he was different from the young master Earl, he did not want to see this talented young man die, so he tried his best to persuade him: "Have you ever seen a battleship? That big guy definitely didn't rely on his blood to win the battle." It can be defeated!"

"Hehe, I'm not relying on blood, I'm relying on a cold submarine!"

Long Hao remained unmoved, with an extremely relaxed smile on his face: "Yunyao, this is the gamble I'm talking about! As long as I defeat the six invading battleships, you will stay and help me, and build a diving boat for me wholeheartedly. And if I lose, Kunpeng will naturally cease to exist, and the research on submarines will naturally become a thing of the past, so there is no need to mention it...how about it, Yun Yao. Do you dare to bet?"

Long Hao's self-confidence was very contagious. Zheng Tingxiang was stunned for a while, and he actually had some 'illusion' in his heart that Long Hao might win.

"Okay, I bet!"

Zheng Tingxiang let out a long breath.High-five with Long Hao and swear: "Hey, this time, I really hope that I lose..."

"Don't worry, Yun Yao, you are doomed!"

Long Hao said with a hippie smile.

When the bet between Long Hao and Zheng Tingxiang was settled quietly, in other corners of the United States, some deals, some discussions, some schemes... were also going on quietly.

64 kilometers southeast of San Francisco, San Jose, the former state capital of California.

This is the settlement established by the Spanish colonists and the earliest immigrant place in California. When the railway led to San Francisco in 1864, it gradually became the distribution center and processing park of Santa Clara's agricultural products.

On this day, the sun was shining brightly, and in a building full of tropical plants, two figures surnamed Rothschild were arguing fiercely about something.

Long Hao has dealt with these two people who are not of low status in the family.

One is Kant Rothschild, an elite who came to take over the family's affairs in the southwestern United States after the death of Bess.

The other is Bergson Rothschild, a native elite who came to the United States in desperation because he was frustrated in a gamble in Europe.

Both are elites, but there is no doubt that Bergson's family ranks above Kant's.

At this moment, Kant was angrily walking back and forth on the carpet, while Bergson had a disdainful smile on his face, fluttered his nose, and inhaled a white powder once in a while.

"Bergson, you have to explain to me! How did you write such a large check?"

"Cut, how did it come out?"

Bergson glanced at Kant: "Of course it was issued through formal procedures, Kant, let me remind you, knowing your identity, this kind of questioning is not something you can raise, and next time, hehe, I don't mind Submit this crime of yours to the Arbitration Council of your clan!"

"I can't question it anymore?"

Kant became more and more angry. He rushed to Bergson, pointed at the nephew of the current patriarch, and growled: "I am in charge of all affairs in the southwestern United States! It's good for you, you don't want to stay in Europe, suddenly When I came to the United States, I transferred the 'stock listing rights' to the Earl of North Sea rashly without asking for my opinion! Now, the Earl of North Sea is holding a check for 5000 million pounds in my bank. Cash in! Bergson, do you know that the deployment of the family in the western United States has been disrupted by you, and the stored funds are about to be emptied by you..."

"Whoa, calm down..."

Bergson took a sip of the powder, and a blush flashed across his pale face: "Tsk tsk, Kant, are you promising? What is your bank? Is it a bank under the family's control? Besides, you blame me for transferring 'stocks'." It's a bit of a point to say that the listing rights' ruined your deployment. However, it was the Earl of Beihai who asked you to withdraw cash. You are short of funds, so you want to push it on me? Don't forget, my father is the family's treasurer Manager, don’t think that when you come to the United States, you can embezzle and accept bribes, fill your pockets, and maliciously slander without any scruples..."

"Bergson, do you dare to sue the villain first?!"

Kant was a little bit mad: "The check in the Earl of Beihai's hand is signed in your name! I think you are the one who took bribes? What kind of benefits did the Earl of Beihai give you? You actually gave money and gave Right? Don’t think I don’t know that the family’s mining rights and road construction rights in Australia have also been sold by you! Let me remind you, don’t think your father is the chief financial officer. He can cover the sky with one hand!”

"hiss……"

Bergson took another breath, and glanced at Kant contemptuously: "Every step of my operation strictly follows the family norms, and the transaction between me and the Earl of Beihai is not as confidential as yours. It can be learned... Well, I still remind you, Kant, your current task is to find a way to secure the family's foothold in the western United States. Don't let the family's last "territory" in the United States be lost... As for your Doubt, you can keep it. If you are still not convinced, I also welcome you to go back to Europe and submit a review report on me to the arbitration committee. Hey, are you satisfied with this answer?"

Speaking of which.Bergson also sucked up the white powder in the tinfoil in his hand, stood up staggeringly, clapped his hands, raised the corners of his mouth, and ignored Kant.Just walked out of the room.

Kant was alone in the empty room, trembling with rage: Damn... Bergson!

Kant succeeded Beth and came to San Francisco with the ambition of making a big difference. He reached a secret cooperation agreement with Long Hao, preparing to deal with tk Morgan wholeheartedly and seize the financial market in the "wild" western United States.

For this reason, he did not hesitate to use up his mother's favor, and borrowed a large sum of money from the family, intending to make a big splash in the western United States where the financial order is not yet perfect.

However, just as he was about to complete his plan and was about to drive out a group of small and medium-sized banks in the western United States, Bergson, a "dandy" born with a golden spoon in his mouth, "airborne" into San Francisco!

That's all for now, but his first move was to transfer the 'stock listing rights' under his control to Long Hao!

The right to list stocks belonged to the family, and Bergson held the power of attorney signed by the patriarch, and Kant had no ability to resist at all.

Once Long Hao had the right to list stocks, he immediately opened the San Francisco Stock Exchange, and unintentionally destroyed half of Kant's layout at once.

Originally, Kant wanted to take advantage of the slow circulation of futures prices in the western United States to create a crop futures game, involving nearly [-]% of the small and medium-sized banks in the west. Small and medium-sized banks that are locked up...just play!

However, the emergence of the San Francisco Exchange has made the futures prices of agricultural products consistent with those in the eastern United States. If Kant wants to start this game again, it does not mean that he will not be successful, but it will cost at least three times the previous funds!

The risk of trading has increased sharply. If one is not careful, Kant will have to change from being a player to being played!

Kant was on the verge of falling out with Bergson at the time, and he had worked so hard to arrange a game for a year, but this 'shit stirrer' casually messed it up and messed it up!

How does this balance Kant's psychology?

However, whoever made Bergson's status in the family too special is tantamount to cultivating him as the next patriarch... After thinking about it, Kant decided to endure it. Kant's ambition), let's settle the score with this dude again!

However, as one wished, Kant did not wait for Bergson to leave, but waited for Long Hao to come to his bank waving the check for 5 million pounds and cash it.

5 million pounds, Kant's loan from favors is more than this amount, if he pays in one lump sum, then he can directly go bankrupt and jump to the Pacific Ocean!

However, the check in Long Hao's hand is genuine, and the money in Kant's hand still belongs to the Rothschild family in name, unless he doesn't want to mess around in the financial world, then he must give the money back!

No, Kant and Long Hao talked about it, and finally got the Earl of Beihai to agree to withdraw 2 million pounds first, and the remaining 3 million to be deferred for three months. Of course, twice the interest rate for the same period is essential.

Therefore, Kant had no choice but to invite Bergson to come to San Jose, hoping that he could come forward to mediate, one is to cancel the amount of the check in Long Hao's hand, and the other is to transfer funds from the European family to help him tide over the difficulties.

Naturally, Bergson would not agree to Kant's 'unreasonable demands'. He managed to settle the 16 billion pound deficit within the family. How could he help Kant now?

In his opinion, it would be the best thing for Kant to help him share part of the deficit. His young master Bergson was already very magnanimous if he didn't make trouble.

"Okay, okay, if you don't give me a way out, why should I worry about the blame from my family..."

In the lonely and gloomy room, Kant stopped shaking under the shadow of a ray of sunlight from the curtains. He filed his back molars and said fiercely, "Come on, contact me with the Black Clothes Gang, saying that there is a big business to take care of them." ..."

The Black Clothes Gang is the most shining gang in the Northwest of the United States in the past year. According to research, they were first established in Port Bethel. If they were willing to work hard, they were all included in the gang. (To be continued..)
