"Bang!"

After the loud noise, it was tasteless.

It was an unfair matchup, with Whitestone-Winchester United winning and winning a bit of a stretch.

The advantages that Doug wanted to show did not show, and the superiority of the White Rock Security Company in tactical design was not shown at all.

But Thomson, the militia commander in New Haven, had a burning fire in his eyes.

He looked into Doug's eyes with inexplicable enthusiasm.

He saw the meaning brewing behind the wars of the past, and he saw the truth of the wars of the future, which was - explosions.

And in his opinion, Doug is like Prometheus who brought fire to humanity, bringing him an explosion.

"Lord Doug, can I invite you to dinner?" Thomson, the militia commander in New Haven, was a little reserved.

Doug didn't expect that a branch he had inadvertently planted in the ground would become a treasure in the eyes of others, and he replied calmly, "Okay." ”

"That's wonderful!" Thomson rubbed his hands, like a small business that had made a fortune by luck.

The agents of other weapons companies did not leave without saying a word when they saw this scene.

In some fantastical way, they decided the order in which to greet Thomson.

At the same time, they also shook hands with Doug amicably.

"Hopefully we have a chance to work together!"

"There will be!"

"That dynamite is so sexy!"

"yes! It's sexy. ”

……

These people didn't have the slightest thing about the nomination, not even Colter Jr. mentioned it.

Because, at this moment, he has seen the gap.

He's not stupid, the reason why he looked a little stupid before is because he's always been just a flower in a greenhouse.

The flowers in the greenhouse, although they are more vividly developed than the wild ones.

However, if you don't experience wind and rain, you will inevitably be superficial.

When he said goodbye to Doug, Doug didn't particularly care, just replied, the word "goodbye".

Mr. De Niro, the mayor of New Haven, waited for everyone else to leave before he walked in front of Doug.

He didn't compliment Doug, but just said very blandly, "You're really capable." ”

"Thank you for your recognition. ”

Doug watched Mayor De Niro leave, leaving Thomson alone in the stand.

In this kind of "private setting" where there are only two people left, Thomson makes a request, "Can you give me a real grenade?"

"Yes. "The Whitestone-Winchester United in the distance have returned victorious," Ram, giving Mr. Commander a grenade. ”

Ram handed a grenade to the Thomson Necrony, who was over forty years old and gray-sided, and was an old man in his age.

"Oh, is this the commander of your wing, so young?" Thomson wanted to add when he saw Little Ram, dressed in a heroic uniform, and took the grenade, "Lend him to me too." ”

However, reason still stopped him from acting, because he knew that such a core personnel could not be outside for anyone.

Even, if possible, let him cut off all contact with the outside world.

Because human beings cannot withstand temptation.

As long as there is an opportunity to come into contact, there is a possibility of corruption.

Therefore, a truly faithful person often comes into contact only with the people to whom he is loyal.

Thomson is a person who understands the rules, and if he understands the rules, he will naturally not break the rules.

Don't look at Thomson, he looks like a white uncle who is a little older, but his appearance is not very ordinary among the American people.

Perhaps inherited from the British, Americans always wish their leaders were older. It's as if such a person makes more reliable decisions.

In another world, the 44th president of the United States, Hussein-Oba (Harmony) Ma, for this reason, dyed his hair against his scalp white.

And the forty-fifth president of the United States after him, Donald Trump, is simply a complete old man.

Even if people from other countries feel that he has no score, he can still represent the will of a part of the American people when he can be elected.

At the same time, in this era when the United States is not yet extremely rich in material things, slightly above the average level of obesity is a plus.

Because, in this era of rampant hunger, if you want to be obese, it must mean having more wealth.

Also, obese people seem to be more amiable.

The militia in New Haven, to be honest, hasn't been on the front lines for a long time.

The current positioning is even somewhat similar to that of supernumerary police.

Therefore, Thomson's appearance, as well as his style of always helping people in need, have made him have a relatively high reputation in New Haven.

Of course, those who really know him know that this is just his disguise.

In fact, this old man, who was already in his forties, longed for war.

It just so happens that New Haven itself has several weapons factories, and the weapons and equipment of the New Haven Arms Militia are updated at a rate that is almost the highest of any militia organization in the United States.

Of course, these are not free, nor are they paid in full.

The militia in New Haven, in a situation like this, looks more like a paid beta user.

Buy the latest and most dazzling weapons and equipment at cost price, then test them, and if you encounter something that is not useful, you can give their opinions back to the equipment manufacturer.

And now, he's in love with the explosion.

After Doug saw the grenade in Doug Thomson's hand, in order to avoid him not knowing anything, he immediately opened the safety of the grenade, and hurriedly said, "This is the Winchester Type 59 grenade, and the place where your hand touches now is the safety of this grenade." You pull the latch off the place, and when you pull the rope, the grenade will explode in six to nine seconds.

Generally, the explosion time is calculated in six seconds, so the ring should be thrown out as soon as possible. ”

Although Thomson has a big heart, he doesn't want to die, he has seen the power of this grenade, so he naturally will not take it lightly.

He followed Doug's steps, unplugging the safety latch, pulling the rope before throwing it straight ahead.

Although the direction of the throw is a little crooked, it still throws it from a safe distance.

"Bang!"

The frozen ground is flying.

Thomson walked in the direction of the explosion, admiring the small crater in the ground and nodding in satisfaction.

"What a grenade! better than any other grenade!" exclaimed Thomson.

Hand grenades have been around for at least a hundred years, but in the past hundred years, grenades have not played a big role.

Mainly because of the grenade filled with black powder, the explosion radius and the intensity of the explosion are not so strong.

If you are prepared, run when the grenade is thrown, and even within a second or two you can run out of the range of the grenade explosion.

Even if iron nails or other metal fragments are added to it in order to increase the destructive power, the black powder with insufficient explosive power does not increase the power of black powder even if these materials are added.

When Thomson had just borrowed an empty grenade from Doug, he was so close that he was close to admiring the grenade.

The grenade wasn't all that different from the ones he'd seen before, both in terms of shape and the structure he saw.

He was a little disappointed at the time, but having just tried the power of the explosive grenade, he immediately gained full confidence in the Winchester Type 59 grenade.

"I'll get a hundred!" said Commander Thomson.

"As you wish. Doug replied.

As for the price of these grenades, they need to worry about it.

The militia naturally has the rules of the militia, and Doug's side naturally has its own algorithm.

When the people above have already confirmed the transaction, will the people below still say that we won't do this business?

Of course not, at most it's just a bit of bargaining.

"Haha, boy, I've heard of you, you've been pretty good lately!" said Thomson, putting his arm on Doug's shoulder.

Doug's height has changed significantly in the few months he has made his fortune.

Many people are short, not really born short.

It's just that they can't supplement adequate nutrition when they need to grow and develop.

"I've recently found a very good cook, and he makes something that you must not have eaten! Guess what? If I'm wrong, how about giving me a hundred Winchester 59 grenades?

If you guessed correctly, the weapons of the New Haven militia will be your weapons for the next year.

Their uniforms will be changed to the ones this kid is wearing!"

Thomson said, pointing at Ram.

Although Doug didn't like others to hook up with him, he was not particularly disgusted by this mild-looking militia commander, and he quietly moved to the side as he said, "Commander, you didn't hint at anything, how could I possibly guess it?"

I thought, you just want my grenade! I'll give you it!"

"Don't be like this! It's so boring! Just guess for God's sake. I'll give you a few hints, it's beef, it's not stewed, no one eats it that way, guess what!"

Thomson gives three tips.

The last of these three tips is a make-up number, as he has said before.

The first two are more critical.

First of all, beef is not a good meat to chew.

Therefore, in the United States in this era, the mainstream method of making beef is beef stew.

A pot of beef is simmered until the beef inside is simmered.

However, Thomson said that the dish was not stewed, so could it be...... Steak?

Doug suddenly thought of steak.

He used to pay attention to steak, because steak is relatively simple to process, and the price of beef is low, which can be used as food for workers.

However, after trying it, Doug found a problem.

That is, the steak is done, except for young people, as long as the teeth are slightly not very good, it is impossible to eat it.

Doug tried a few more times, and in the end, although he was able to make a steak that was palatable, it completely deviated from his goal of being simple and easy to make.

If you want a steak to be easy to chew, you need to not only cut it thinly, but also use a hammer to destroy its own muscle tissue.

Only in this way can the steak made easier to eat.

With so much time, it would be better to stew beef directly from the power shop through a steam pipe.

Doug recalled, "Steak!"

"How do you know it's a steak!" Thomson said with a look of surprise on his face.

He didn't expect this young man to think of steak.

You know, unimproved steak is, in the eyes of Thomson's class, the food of the common people.

Note that this is a commoner, not a pauper.

Those people in the slums, naturally, don't eat steak.

Why is the steak positioned this way?

First of all, it is because beef is difficult to make, and if it is not done well, the taste will be very poor.

Secondly, there is such a thing as beef, which is too popular.

For the wealthy, scarcity is expensive.

Only those foods that produce very little and embody the labor of many people, and foods that others cannot afford to eat, can be worthy of their status.

Take cakes, for example, a birthday cake coated in cream used to be a food item used to show off wealth.

Why?

Whether it's the number of stirrings required for the majestic cake itself, or the number of stirrings required for the cream, it is very impressive.

At the same time, in Europe, desserts are a luxury in their own right.

In his previous life, Doug had been to Europe, and the pastries there were so sweet.

There is a saying that white people are not sensitive enough to sweetness, but Doug thinks it is a heartbeat of "what is lacking, what is more".

Once, sweets were a luxury for them, but now that they can eat them, they naturally add them to death.

It's like a poor person who suddenly gets rich, and he has to buy four bottles of milk, one bottle with sugar, one bottle with salt, one bottle to pour out, and one bottle to drink.

In addition, the cake and cream need to be constantly stirred and stirred in to make them fluffy.

When there is no electric machine, the mixing can only be done manually, so the cost is very considerable.

However, as time goes on and technology advances, mixing has become easier and easier.

As a result, the cake also started to grow taller and taller, starting from a single-layer cake.

It's as if there are one hundred and one layers, and it's like the happiest person in the world.

But in reality, the cake is just a show of wealth.

The same is true for cakes, and the same is true for meat.

Compared to offal and meat from some strange places, meat from cows is the cheapest.

Therefore, the rich are disdainful of eating.

They prefer to eat rare parts, even if they are unpalatable.

It can be said that it is a culture.

However, Doug disagrees with this culture born of comparison.

Thomson didn't bother to find out how Doug guessed that it was steak, he was simply happy that he had found someone who also liked steak.

Doug, on the other hand, doesn't like steak very much, but he doesn't hate it either.

For people his age, as long as it is meat, they can eat it.
