Gulfstream One took off three hours later than expected, and all the details about the Scepter of Xianxi were finalized.

Ciapareli-Dior said they would take care of everything, they were working with Cartier, which could help a lot.

Cartier, who is obsessed with watches, has plenty of experience and patience when it comes to delicate design.

"Where is the banquet arranged?" Sitting on the sofa, Li Zitao asked about the next itinerary.

"Tonight at 8 o'clock, Waldorf Astoria. Tia flipped through the schedule.

"Tomorrow's. "The trip back to the U.S. is going to be full, and since he has a surprise wedding for his fiancée, he needs to make sure everything is on track.

"Meet tomorrow morning at 9 a.m. with Tiffany's jewelry expert, George Frederick Kuntz, to discuss the final cut of the diamond ring. ”

"Head to Pioneer at 2 p.m. to see Capet's new products. ”

"Check the wedding invitation list at 9 p.m. ”

After listening to what Tia said, Li Zitao leaned back on the sofa and stretched his waist and said, "It seems that we are busy." ”

The plane landed at the New York airport on time, and Ava had been waiting for a long time.

The next formation will be entrusted to her, and Tia will return to the Blue and White Building in Chicago to be responsible for the communication between the company and Li Zitao.

"Why do they suddenly want to hold a banquet?" Sitting in the car, Li Zitao still couldn't figure out why MacArthur held this banquet for the purpose.

"Maybe they see the potential of skunks. Ava handed him a document, a strange smile on her face.

"This is..."Looking at the complex design drawings above, although Li Zitao couldn't understand it, he still knew the words on it.

The results of the first tests of turbojet engines, and they really did it?

"Is this true?" asked Li Zitao in disbelief.

"Of course, but it's not mature enough, and it needs a lot of tweaking to really apply it to airplanes, that's what Johnson said. ”

Ava doesn't know much about engines, but Johnson said it was important and would change the way the aviation industry is developed right now.

So every word he said, Ava remembered it clearly.

"Very good. Gripping the document in his hand, Li Zitao roughly guessed what MacArthur wanted.

Park in front of the resplendent Waldorf Astoria Hotel, the world's first skyscraper hotel in the 42-storey luxury hotel on Park Avenue.

Completed in '31, it is currently the largest and tallest hotel in the world.

"Thank you. Smiling at the waiter who opened the car door, Shen Dong put a 5 US dollar bill in the other party's hand.

Now Shen Dong has become his full-time driver, and he has strong anti-reconnaissance capabilities, which makes him more suitable for the profession of driver.

Li Zitao didn't give up on the grove next to him, but he didn't want to gossip about him all over the place, so that Adelayed, who will become his official wife next month, lost his temper again, so his future itinerary needs to be more secretive.

"General MacArthur. As soon as he came to the banquet hall, Li Zitao saw MacArthur not far away.

Today's banquet is like an army club, except for the mid-level generals of the army, there are countless hot girls, interspersed back and forth in revealing clothes.

"Charlie, you're so punctual. Looking at the wall clock on the wall, MacArthur joked.

"Of course, haha..."Taking a glass of Margaret from the waiter tray, Li Zitao asked with a smile, "Maybe we should have some fun at the club." ”

The atmosphere was not elegant, but rather like a strip club.

Looking at the embarrassed expressions of the waiters, Li Zitao really didn't know how they managed to turn a blind eye.

"Soldiers don't know how to be gentlemen, and thank you for your arrangement. "MacArthur didn't have the money to arrange all this.

"Tell me about you!" the two walked side by side into the corner.

"The Department of Defense wants to reach a new cooperation with the Skunks, but there is one clause that must be regulated by them. MacArthur made his terms.

"It can't be. Li Zitao put the empty wine glass on the table, hooked his finger at the waiter not far away, and said expressionlessly: "Didn't they wake up?"

"Charlie, this is a good opportunity for you, as long as you can satisfy them, the defense license you want will be much simpler. ”

MacArthur had thought before he came that he would refuse, but he also had something that Li Zitao was interested in.

Li Zitao's efforts to obtain a national defense license are not an effort within the military.

But because of the comprehensive consideration of all aspects, he finally rejected his application, presumably this condition will make him change his attention.

"I'm not that interested in defense licenses anymore... People are always fickle, aren't they?" Raising a glass to the astonished MacArthur, Li Zitao didn't seem to care at all about his conditions.

Painting flatbread is something that Li Zitao has done too much by himself.

As soon as the other party said it, he knew that this was a castle in the air, and it was out of reach, and it was completely used to fool him.

After letting go of the obsession with the national defense license, he also clearly realized how much it would cost to achieve this.

The color of his skin was the biggest obstacle, and everyone would wonder if he had an ulterior purpose, his racial leanings, his care for his fellow citizens, and his layout in China.

The excess number of employees in the three eastern provinces, the prices of goods that are so low that they are almost unprofitable, are not a business in anyone's eyes, but more like some kind of protection.

"Don't do that, Charlie, it won't get you a license directly, but at least it will bring you closer. MacArthur smiled with his hands outstretched.

"But I don't need that right now, someone will be willing to pay for Skunk's new technology, won't they?"

Li Zitao crossed Erlang's legs, leaned on the sofa leisurely and said.

"Well, what do you want?" MacArthur smiled wryly and raised his hand, sat down and waited for his offer.

"Supervision is impossible, if you want to get technical support from Skunk, why don't you help me win the latest order from the Navy?" Li Zitao said with a grin, as if he was joking.

"Navy, you know it's Navy holiday time. MacArthur looked at him with a frown.

According to the supplementary treaty signed in London in 30, the Navy did not have any possibility of expanding the tonnage of the Navy for the next 4 years, until 1936.

"But I know they have plans to gradually replace the battleships, don't lie to me. Li Zitao is very clear about the "Washington Naval Treaty".

"That's a distributed benefit. MacArthur said helplessly.

"Then let them divide the benefits, my shipyard needs a new order. So far, Li Zitao's shipyard has only his orders.

Oh, yes, there's a new order from CGT, but at the end of the day it's his own money, and he needs to snatch new profits from the current nautical market.

And now the only thing that can still be invested in the nautical industry is the government, which is a well-known piece of cake.

"Charlie, you can't touch other people's cakes, that's the rule, the Skunk's turbine engine has only just been put into testing, and it will take a long time before it can be used. ”

MacArthur's face was a little ugly, and Li Zitao's condition that he did not have any room for maneuver spoiled the friendly atmosphere.

"Then wait for the British to pay for it, or France or Italy, I think they would be happy to be the test pilot. ”

What kind of national defense license, now he understands that as long as there is the technology that everyone desires in his hands, even the Ministry of Defense has to take the initiative to see his face.
