Moreover, precisely because the chance of the rough stone bought by Zhang Desen and others turning green was so accurate, everyone else who was blocking the stone began to have all kinds of evil thoughts.
At this time, a huge shout suddenly came from a box on the right side of Zhang Desen's box:
"Hey, those in the private room over there, please donate your jade quickly, otherwise I guarantee you won't be able to leave Hezhou City."
After hearing this, Li Longfang and Zhao Chengming turned to look at Zhang Desen. But Zhang Desen smiled and said:
"Friends across the way, it all depends on your ability. If you can't get the green stone, you blame others. I follow what you said, so why don't you just go to the original place of origin and dig it yourself? It's just a little effort. , it’s not a waste of money if you don’t get green, right?”
The person in the box opposite said:
"Okay, you can't blame us for seeking death. You still have time to think about it now."
In this way, this short-lived farce ended temporarily, and the stone gambling conference continued.
Zhang Desen turned to ask Li Longfang at this time and said:
"Who is that person in the box opposite?"
However, Li Longfang replied a little confused:
"I'm sorry. It might be better to ask Brother Zhao Chengming about the customers in the Liu family business."
After hearing this, Zhang Desen smiled apologetically. Then he turned to look at Zhao Chengming, who immediately replied:
"If I heard the voice correctly and there are previous records, I remember correctly. That box should belong to the Sun family, a powerful local family."
Zhang Desen said:
"They are so domineering. I actually like people with this surname. In my original universe, there were many heroes with this surname? Why is there such a domineering one here?"
Zhao Chengming said:
"Captain doesn't need to worry about this. Maybe the captain likes some celebrities with this surname in the original universe. But it doesn't mean that people with a certain surname must be good people or bad people. Captain, there is no need to worry about it. Now we just Just target people.”
Zhang Desen said:
"Then how powerful is the Sun family in Hezhou City?"
Zhao Chengming said:
"According to my subordinates, the Sun family has deep roots in Hezhou City. It is said that their family is more powerful than the prefect of Hezhou City. The prefect of Hezhou City even needs to rely on their family's strength to maintain law and order. Its private armed force reaches 20,000 people."
After hearing this, Zhang Desen thought for a while and said:
"In other words, our family is equivalent to the local emperor in this area. So how many people are there in our Liu family business here?"
Zhao Chengming said:
"It turns out that this is not a place where we focus on doing business. We only have about 1,000 people here. And if we include the people we brought back from Brenai and other areas this time, there will only be about 3,000 people."
After hearing this, Zhang Desen thought for a while and said:
"Do the more than 1,000 people usually use cold weapons?"
Zhao Chengming replied:
"Yes, that's right. That's why this time a batch of weapons was shipped from outside. That means we started to pay attention to this place and changed the uniforms for the generals here."
Zhang Desen said:
"Then don't worry. If they push us into a hurry, I will have a way to deal with them."
Zhao Chengming suddenly asked:
"Captain, should we contact the Prime Minister and the foreign ministers and ask them to call Captain Gao Rou and bring the aviation team over. As long as we bring those 8 fighter jets, we don't have to be afraid of how many of them there are."
However, when it comes to Gao Rouhang. Zhang Desen was still deeply impressed by this person. I think back then, because Zhang Desen found in the Tycho crater base of the super ancient humans, in addition to the space fighters, the 4 "Red Baron" fighter jets and 4 "Camel" fighter jets specially left by the super ancient humans and other aircraft flying in the atmosphere. when. It was decided to immediately select 8 pilots to form the first batch of joint aviation teams. And Li Longxiang mentioned to him Gao Rouhang, who had been a general of the Zhang family for generations.
In fact, Gao Rouhang has been fascinated by flying like a bird since he was a child. He often told his mother that he would take his mother to fly with him. His playmates laughed at his wishful thinking.
but
He just doesn't give up, even though the human civilization in this universe is in ancient times, and the historical process is a bit like the Song Dynasty in Zhang Desen's original universe, so there is no aerospace technology.
However, Gao Rouhang did not believe in evil, so he tried to collect various materials through his own efforts and tried to imitate the wings of birds, but failed every time. Therefore, people laughed at him more and more. At the same time, he often fell and was seriously injured due to various flight tests. His mother felt very sorry for this and often locked him in her room, but she still couldn't stop Gao Rouhang's desire to fly.
I originally thought that he would be able to figure it all out when he was older, but I didn't expect that the older he gets, the more fascinated he will be with flying, and he will often come to some conclusions.
For example, what are the benefits of arranging each wing of a bird this way or that way? So many people laugh at him. However, Zhang Desen listened carefully to the various theories introduced by Gao Rouhang introduced by Li Longfang, and was surprised to find that his theory had many similarities with modern aeronautics.
At that time, Zhang Desen couldn't help but feel a little emotional. Gao Rouhang was promoted to the wrong place and era. If he lived in the era or place where he was born, his theoretical achievements would probably be very surprising.
Finally, Zhang Desen found him personally. After some investigation, it was discovered that he indeed had a talent for aviation. So he personally trained him to become a pilot and appointed him captain of the aviation team.
In the end, Gao Rouhang did not disappoint Zhang Desen, and he learned to fly very quickly. Later that time
When the time came to block the 800,000-strong Liaogu army led by Wan Gu, the performance was perfect, successfully inflicting heavy damage on the Liaogu army and effectively cooperating with Zhang Desen's frontal attack.
But having said that, let me also introduce the fighter jets "Red Baron" and "Camel" currently used by the joint generals of Zhang and Liu Mansion.
Although it is a little different from Zhang Desen's original universe, the overall situation is similar. The so-called "Red Baron" fighter jet is the Fokker Dr-1 triplane.
This triplane fighter was distinctive and was flown by nearly every Luftwaffe pilot in World War I. What is more famous is that it was the last aircraft of Baron Richthofen (Manfred Albrht Freiherrvon Ri), the world's number one air combat ace during World War I, with a personal record of 80 aircraft - the same type of aircraft as the "Red Baron", which achieved An ordinary pilot.
Because the three-layer wing aircraft with a relatively narrow wingspan has excellent maneuverability and flight performance, it is most suitable for close combat with enemy aircraft, so it has won the favor of many top and bold pilots.
In particular, the "Fokker DR-1" triplane is particularly useful in biting the opponent's tail in a "dog fight" style battle. German pilot Richthofen flew this kind of aircraft and shot down 80 British and French aircraft, becoming a record-breaking "air ace" in World War I.
On April 20, 1918, Richthofen was shot down by a Camel biplane flown by Canadian pilot Brown. The British made an exception and held a grand funeral for this war opponent, which was unprecedented in the history of war.
Because the Fokker aircraft showed its prowess in World War I and shot down many Allied aircraft, this situation was called the "Fokker Disaster" during this period. This situation can also reflect the impact of science and technology on the military.
As for the "Camel" fighter, it has good maneuverability and powerful firepower. In the last year or so of World War I, he shot down a total of 1,294 enemy aircraft, becoming the best fighter at the time.
The "Camel" aircraft was designed by the British company Sopwith. Its military name is Sopwith F.1 biplane. It has a maximum level flight speed of 195 kilometers per hour and a ceiling of 5,800 meters. Two machine guns are installed side by side on the upper part of the aircraft engine, and a shooting coordinator is used. Because there is a raised bulge on each cover above the machine gun, which looks like two humps, it was named "Camel".
Its technical characteristics are a single-seat fighter equipped with 2 machine guns and an external 45.4 kg bomb.
The two ace captains Torolop and Ullet used it to create a record of shooting down 6 enemy planes in one day. Both the British Air Force and the Naval Air Force are equipped with this kind of aircraft, with a total number of more than 3,000. A total of 5,490 "Camel" aircraft were produced. In addition to the United Kingdom, Belgium, Canada, Greece, and the United States have all used this type of aircraft.
airplane.
With its agile hovering performance and powerful forward firepower, this prestigious aircraft shot down 1,294 enemy aircraft in the 16 months from July 1917 to November 1918, creating a record of the First World War. The mid-range single model has the best results record.
Of course, these are the data from Zhang Desen's original universe. However, the "Red Baron" and "Camel" fighter jets left by the super-ancient humans in this universe are generally not much different from those in Zhang Desen's original universe. It is just that their development history is different. How many.
Of course, there are some differences that you don’t have to worry about. In short, the performance is good.
But just when Zhang Desen was deep in thought, Zhao Chengming continued to shout softly next to him:
"Captain, captain..."
Zhang Desheng suddenly found himself in deep thought and immediately said to Zhao Chengming:
"Oh, I don't have to. Since there is already a "Crater" here, everything is under control. No need."
Zhao Chengming immediately replied:
"yes!!!"
…
However, at this time in the box of the Sun family, the eldest young master of the Sun family, Sun Fu, said to the steward of the Sun family, Sun Jia:
"Hurry up and send someone to find out who is in that compartment who dares to snatch things from me. I don't want to kill him. Wait, I must make them regret what they did today."
After hearing this, housekeeper Sun Jia said with some concern:
"Master, the people who can be in the box are usually rich or noble people. If we accidentally offend someone we shouldn't offend, everything will not end well!"
However, Sun Fu said:
"No matter who they are, find them out immediately. If you dare to oppose my Sun family in Hezhou City, isn't this asking for death? Besides, Prince Xuanwei Wangdan is a guest in the palace. With him here, who are you afraid of?"
After hearing this, Sun Jia was still a little worried and said:
"Master, how about I take some people to intercept them later. How about taking a look at their stories to make sure everything is safe?"
After hearing this, Sun Fu said impatiently:
"You are so meddlesome. You can stop them in a while and tell them that I am interested in them. Hand over all their jade immediately, otherwise you will not be able to leave Hezhou City alive."
After hearing this, Sun Jia had to say:
"Yes, young master."
However, Sun Fu went on to say:
"Let's do this. You immediately send someone to the restaurant owned by the Liu Family Trading Company across the street and book a private room. In addition, immediately send someone back home and ask Uncle Xuan Wei to come to the private room opposite and say that I have obtained a batch of jade. , I want to ask him to appraise it. Moreover, after the stone gambling conference is over, all the people who participate in the stone gambling will usually go to the opposite place to book a private room or a table. You should know what to do next. "
After hearing this, housekeeper Sun Jia immediately said excitedly:
"Okay, Master, please don't worry. I will bring all their jade to the Master soon."
…
After that, the stone gambling conference continued as usual. But for Zhang Desen, today's trip seems to have lost its original meaning. Because, it turned out that Zhang Desen and the others planned to meet people from powerful families. However, I don’t know why all those powerful families suddenly backed down.
As for gambling on stones, it has become meaningless to Zhang Desen, and Zhang Desen has the help of super micro detectors left by super ancient humans. Therefore, all the rough stones that turned green fell into the hands of Zhang Desen and others.
At this time, Li Longfang said:
"Great, Captain! We really made a killing today."
And Zhao Chengming also said excitedly:
"Yes! It is generally difficult to get green results when betting on stones. Everything almost depends on luck. Even those old experts may not be able to guarantee accuracy every time. However, this ultra-ancient human detector is really That’s great, the rough stones we opened today are equal to the income of our Hezhou branch in the past three years.”
However, Zhao Chengming then said:
"It's just, captain. I think that Sun family member will definitely send someone to cause trouble for us."
Zhang Desen said:
"Okay. There's no need to pay attention to them.
If you want to cause trouble for us, just come. Okay, we don’t care about what happens next. It's noon, let's go eat. "
However, before Zhang Desen and the others started to walk out, the stone gambling conference suddenly ended. It turned out that except for Zhang Desen and his group, everyone else who came to participate in the stone gambling conference basically spent all their money. Therefore, they all left early to eat.
Zhang Desen looked at the scene in front of him, smiled, and immediately led Li Longfang and Zhao Chengming to the second floor of the restaurant opposite.
Of course it is also a private room. After all, it is the Liu family's property, so He Youcai, the general manager of the Hezhou branch, must have arranged everything.
When Zhang Desen and the others entered the private room, He Youcai, the general manager of the Hezhou Branch of Liu's Commercial Bank, also immediately entered the private room and congratulated Zhang Desen and the others and said:
"The eldest son is indeed very capable. He made such a huge fortune in half a day today. Under the leadership of the eldest son, the Zhang and Liu families will surely become more prosperous in the future."
Manager He Youcai is indeed a person who knows how to look at situations and opportunities. Indeed, in Zhang and Liu's second house, everyone analyzed the current situation and concluded that Zhang Desen would inevitably become the head of both families at the same time, so the talented manager He seized this opportunity and hoped to do more for his future. some insurance.
After hearing this, Zhang Desen was about to say something, but suddenly he heard someone outside trying to push the door in. Sure enough, not long after, the door to the private room was forced open, and more than 20 people came in at once.
Li Longfang and Zhao Chengming were about to lead the guards to stop them, but Zhang Desen waved his hand to stop them.
At this time, among the people who came in, one of the leaders introduced himself and said:
"I, Sun Jia, am the steward of the village server. Are you the one who won a lot of jade today?"
Zhang Desen looked at him and said:
"I got some jade today just by luck. I just don't know what it has to do with you?"
And the steward of Sun Mansion, Sun Jia, said:
"That's right. My young master is interested in that batch of jade, so I hope you can offer this batch of jade. It will be of your own benefit."
Zhang Desen asked:
"What good can you tell me? Why should I give the jade I got in vain? Who is your family? The emperor?"
At this moment, everyone including Sun Jia was stunned. To be honest, Hezhou City is almost within the sphere of influence of their Sun family. No one dares to disrespect their Sun family in Hezhou City. Even the prefect of Hezhou City has to give them a lot of face.
But now, someone actually dares to be so disrespectful to their Sun family. They dare not imagine whether this person has something wrong with his head or whether he is a newborn calf who is not afraid of tigers.
However, Sun Jia, the steward of the Sun Mansion, still said:
"You may have just come to Hezhou City and you don't know the situation in Hezhou. Let me tell you the truth. In Hezhou City, our Sun family is like a royal family. Our head is the emperor of this city, and even this city The magistrate also wants to sell our master some face, and the security in the city depends on our Sun family to take care of it."
Then, Sun Jia took a breath. continued:
"As for being in the court, Prince Xuanwei Wangdan is a family friend of my family, and now he is a guest in my house. He will come over to see this batch of jade stones in a while. This is what our eldest young master wants to dedicate to them. Also, Please see the situation clearly, otherwise when Uncle Wang arrives soon, everything will end even worse for you."
After hearing this, Zhang Desen laughed and said:
"Your Excellency really knows how to tell jokes. I'll see him arrive in a while. I'm afraid it will be your Sun family that ends badly. I advise you to leave as soon as possible."
But at this time, a contemptuous voice came from the opposite side, and the voice said:
"Haha. What brat dares not to give our Sun family face?"
As the voice came, a handsome young man walked in. Although he was pretty good-looking, the arrogance and ruffianism on his face were clearly revealed.
Zhang Deshen knew who this was without having to guess. But he still hoped that the other party would report his family name. He immediately followed Zhang Desen and said:
"Excuse me, who are you? What brings you to our private room?"
Just listen to the young man announcing his family status arrogantly and saying:
"I am Sun Fu, the eldest young master of the Sun family. Do you know who I am now?"
