Chapter 279: Communication

In less than a day, Jerry recruited more than two dozen people for Catherine to echo his request, most of whom were scientists who had not met or wanted to seek investment, as well as two businessmen who had a large family business but were bankrupt, and two businessmen who were not officially bankrupt but were already in a difficult situation.

More than 400 years of life, even if she didn't deliberately study, gave Catherine a lot of knowledge. Humanities, languages, customs, and even more commendable are the eyes of people. So even though Catherine is not proficient in science, a discipline that is beginning to rise, she still has many ways to verify how many of these people Jerry recruited are worth paying attention to.

One of the easiest ways to leave Jerry aside from the information he provided is to let them speak for themselves about their knowledge and abilities. Exclude from these people those who are not worthy of the name, but only raise money in the name of research or something.

The rest may not be truly gifted and talented, but to a certain extent, it is also worth looking forward to.

Of course, according to Jerry, there is another very special person among the characters he is looking for for Catherine. This man's name is Nikola Truss. At the Chicago World's Fair, this man passed a high-frequency electric current through his body and demonstrated a reversible magnetic field model, which successfully attracted the attention of the audience. The so-called "Tesla's spinning iron egg".

And Jerry has a lot of information about this person named Nikola Truss.

Of course, Nicolas Truss is not among those people Jerry has offered. He only provided Catherine with the corresponding intelligence. It wasn't like the other twenty or so people who brought information and people to Catherine's side.

Tang Bai didn't expect Catherine to be able to recruit any outstanding talents in this city in three days. The world of vampires, in general, the countries in which the story takes place, history, customs, famous characters, and the real world can correspond to the real world to some extent.

Even if there are no particularly outstanding people in the people Catherine found, as long as they have the corresponding ability in their own profession, then with the help of Tang Bai, they can form a fairly high influence. Both Harry's world and the real world have technologies that have been unsealed, and these technologies may be considered completely expired and useless in their era. But in the era in which Tang Bai lived, those expired and useless technologies would undoubtedly become the leaders.

Coupled with the pulse of the future and the knowledge of development, these are enough for Tang Bai to obtain the capital and influence similar to that of the Ministry of Magic in the Harry world, and the prime minister of the Muggle world and the like. Of course, if Tang Bai is given a leader who has a sufficient genius in some aspects, he may spread this influence even more.

"You are a very special wizard, I have lived for four hundred years, I have met many wizards, but I have never seen a wizard like you, or even a similar one." Catherine sat lazily on the sofa, her right arm supporting half of her smooth chin, looking at Tang Bai, who was reading an ancient book opposite the wooden coffee table, and said abruptly.

"That's because a lot of times, I don't think of myself as a pure wizard. I don't have as much persistence as they do. Tang Bai didn't raise his head and returned to the gathering: "Human beings' behavior of not following the crowd is called deviance? ”

"You don't identify yourself as a wizard?" Catherine asked with some interest.

Tang Bai raised his head and glanced at Catherine: "When this identity is beneficial to me, I identify with it." Otherwise, it is worthless. I never wanted to pigeon myself into one identity. Whether it's a wizard, a potionsman, or an alchemist. ”

"Profiteers?" Catherine's eyes lit up. Judging from what Tang Bai said, it has similar characteristics to her way of acting.

"You can think so. But it shouldn't be as pure as you. Tang Bai turned the page of the book in his palm and replied casually.

"I don't think I'm a wizard, but I'm immersed in a magic book and blind to the women around me?" Catherine ruffled a strand of slightly curly hair with her slender fingers, circled around her fingertips, and released it again, her eyes rolling slightly in her sockets, and said.

"The spells and magic in this book are working for me for the time being, so I don't mind if you think of me as a wizard now." Tang Bai used a finger as a bookmark, inserted it into the page he was reading, closed the page, picked up the magic book with one hand, shook it in front of Catherine's eyes, and said, "This is something I finally got from Klaus." ”

"I know, with the moonstone he's been looking for." Catherine pouted. Whether it's Emily's spellbook or Esther's, Catherine is no stranger. Tang Bai didn't hide anything from her in these things.

Although she was not angry, Tang Bai took the moonstone that once belonged to her and made a deal with Klaus, in exchange for a magic book that she didn't know. But at the same time, Catherine's heart was more or less relaxed, and she trusted Tang Bai more.

If there is anyone who knows Klaus and the Ancestor family best, apart from their family, Catherine is the best among them. More than 400 years are enough for Catherine to recognize what kind of spleen Claus is.

Those who dare to negotiate a deal with Klaus must have enough chips and strength. If you don't have the strength, then you must have the chips in your hand to make Klaus throw a mouse. With Klaus's heart, Catherine only knows Moonstone if he can care about it and cast a rat trap.

"What exactly are you trying to say? It's so secretive, it's not like the famous Catherine Pierce I know. Tang Bai sensitively noticed something strange about Catherine.

Catherine's eyes flickered, she stroked the long hanging hair that covered her eyes, and looked at Tang Bai seriously, "You seem to have forgotten what you promised me." You said that if I had completed the task you had given me, I would have told me something about my daughter. ”

"I thought you could endure it longer." A chuckle appeared on Tang Bai's face: "What do you want to know?" I don't know much about your daughter, but I know how to find her. ”

"What's her name?" Catherine asked, opening her mouth and asking in a somewhat harsh tone.

Looking at Catherine's nervous and delicate face mixed with hardship, Tang Bai was silent for a moment and replied, "Nadia Petrova." (To be continued.) )
