When Yi Shui walked into the living room, Qin Lang, O'Connor, Rachel, and Elizabeth were already celebrating. They stood together with their drinks www.biquge.info discuss another achievement of the company. Yi Shui couldn't help but feel confused.

He walked over. "What are you celebrating? Did something unusual happen in my absence? ”

"It's a good thing." Rachel turned his head and smiled at him, "We signed an agreement with the War Department to allow the Federation's arsenal to produce Predator rifles. In return, for the next twenty-five years, the War Department will pay the company three dollars for each rifle produced. ”

After receiving Washington's final instructions, Lieutenant Colonel Harrington, who knew that he had no way out and was destined to bear the blame for the War Department, and his three colleagues took the lead and signed a concession production agreement according to the conditions proposed by Qin Lang. Once they had brought the rifle drawings back to Washington and handed them over to the Springfield Arsenal, the company's shareholders would be able to start charging.

"It's really something to celebrate." Yi Shui said, but his emotions did not rise as high as others had hoped. Qin Lang immediately realized that his trip to San Francisco was not very pleasant—of course, it was inevitable, and he had known that it would be like this.

But Rachel doesn't know, she doesn't even know the purpose of his trip to San Francisco. Seeing that Yi Shui's mood had become quite depressed like some time ago, she immediately asked with concern: "Your face doesn't look very good, Yi Shui." What's wrong, did you have any unhappy encounters in San Francisco? ”

"Nope. Just a little disappointed. Yi Shui sighed. He walked to the side of the wine cabinet, poured himself a glass of Coke, then turned to Qin Lang and said, "Maybe you have already realized that that Dr. Sun is not the person we are looking for. ”

"That's true." Qin Lang did not deny it.

"What Dr. Sun? What exactly are you talking about? Rachel interjected, his curious gaze turning back and forth between Yi Shui and Qin Lang, and O'Connor and Elizabeth also pricked up their ears and listened intently. They all wanted to know who Yi Shui had met when he went to San Francisco...... Or what was done.

"Rachel, that Mr. Sun is not a doctor, he is a doctor." This explanation seemed a little confusing, so Qin Lang added: "He studied medicine. ”

"I see, Qin." Rachel nodded to indicate that he understood; And when she looked at Yi Shui again, the concern in her eyes became even stronger. "Yi Shui, you're sick, why didn't you tell me? I can find you the best doctor in California......"

She really understood it wrong.

"Thank you for your concern, Rachel, but I'm not sick." Besides, what else can Yi Shui say? She cared so much about him, he should be touched.

Although her concern seems a little overdone. "Are you sure there are no problems?" Rachel stepped forward and reached out to touch Yi Shui's forehead - of course, nothing out of the ordinary. Still, she wasn't at ease. "Tomorrow, I'll ask the doctor to come and take a look."

Yi Shui had to reiterate his health again. "I'm not really sick, Rachel."

"If you're not sick, why go to San Francisco to find a doctor?"

"He's not your average doctor."

"And what is he? A medical expert who studies a particular disease? ”

"Specialist in Male Diseases", the word suddenly appeared in Qin Lang's brain, and he almost laughed. But now is not the time to make such a low-level joke, and not in the future. "That Dr. Sun is a member of an anti-government group from China," he explained in his place of Yi Shui, "and he intends to ask me for help." ”

"So you let Yi Shui go to San Francisco to meet him instead of you?" Rachel glared at him, "Why didn't you tell me sooner, Qin?" ”

"That's right." Elizabeth continued her words, "You've made our little Rachel worry for so long......

"Elizabeth!"

"Well, well, I didn't say anything, and you didn't worry about Yi Shui's health in vain......" Elizabeth stopped halfway through her words as her cousin stared at her with a threatening gaze. Elizabeth was a little worried—she wasn't invulnerable, and Rachel knew her weaknesses too.

So she didn't say anything.

Giving Elizabeth a warning look again, Rachel shifted her attention back to Qin Lang and Yi Shui. "And what do you think of him when you meet him?"

"I've already said it, and I'm a little disappointed." But "a little" is just a rough, discounted adjective, and Yi Shui's feeling is actually "very disappointed". "I must say that Mr. Sun is an idealist through and through." He sighed, "He was patriotic and wanted China to become rich and powerful, but he never thought of a concrete, feasible plan." ”

For most of the meeting, Yi Shui heard empty slogans such as "expel the Tartars and restore China," and even when he asked about the specific plan to overthrow the Qing government and the future policy of national construction, he still heard only slogans. And then there are some unrealistic fantasies.

"He even told me that his organization was preparing to seize Canton as a base this fall," Mr. Yi said, trying to show an expression of disbelief, "but his organization now doesn't even have a single infantry company, let alone weapons." Capture Guangzhou? He shook his head, "It's ridiculous." ”

"It's ridiculous indeed." Only then would O'Connor speak in agreement. "A well-equipped, well-trained army that fully obeys orders is an important prerequisite for defeating government forces."

"You're right, Sean." Qin Lang didn't say anything, O'Connor had already said what he was about to say. The key to the seizure of power is the military, and while O'Connor certainly has not heard the adage that "power comes from the barrel of a gun," he has seen or heard countless examples of the like - right here in the United States.

The American workers who staged the mass lockouts were all militants, and there were even seasoned gunmen who could carry three guns in one person, but they could be easily suppressed by the state militia and the federal army, and even the private armies of the corporations could do the job – as Morgan's private armies often did.

Although the Qing army was not an American state militia, a federal army, or a mercenary corps, the members of the Xingzhong Society who were preparing to occupy Canton were not American workers, they had no weapons, they could not use them, they had nothing but enthusiasm, and defeat was inevitable.

Of course, according to Qin Lang's historical records, even if Dr. Sun had a real army, the plan to capture Canton would still fail: he and his friends probably didn't know how to keep a secret at all, and their organization didn't have a tight and rational organizational structure, and the whole plan would leak out sooner or later......

No, the plan has been leaked.

Everyone in the room had heard the plan, and it wasn't detailed, but it was enough information for any government to thwart a "conspiracy."

Even Rachel was aware of it. "If we sell this information to the Chinese government, Dr. Sun and his friends will be all destroyed." She frowned and said, "He shouldn't have told you such important news, and you shouldn't have told us about it, Yi Shui." ”

"Most of the time, intelligence is always leaked inadvertently." Qin Lang also shrugged his shoulders.

"It's Dr. Sun who you should warn about, not me." Yi Shui spread out his hands with a helpless expression, "In order to convince me, he told me everything: the number of members of the organization, the names of important people, the division of labor in the plan, and the approximate time for action...... I don't even know what else he hasn't told me. ”

"Obviously, this naïve organization is not yet able to take on the task of overthrowing the Chinese government, and now being associated with it will only harm our interests." Rachel gave her opinion.

"Ours?" Qin Lang looked at her seriously, deliberately.

"This trick isn't fun, Qin!" She gave him an angry look in return.

"I don't know what's so angry about this, maybe you're too distracted, little Rachel......"

"Elizabeth!" Rachel turned to glare at her cousin angrily. This is simply too much! "It's hard for me to believe that you guys have such a tacit understanding." She fought back.

"I don't know what you're talking about, my dear cousin," Elizabeth looked away from her gaze and looked at Yi Shui, "So, what else did that Mr. Sun say to you?" ”

He said, "Yi Shui hesitated, not knowing whether he should say that promise, but in the end he said: "If Qin Lang supports them, once they overthrow the Qing government, he is willing to let Qin Lang be the president of the new United States [note] government." ”

There was silence for a moment, and then O'Connor laughed first. "It's been a long time since I've heard a joke like this."

"A big blank check." Elizabeth also said.

"But it's not enough to tempt Qin," Rachel looked at Qin Lang, "You're not tempted, are you?" ”

Qin Lang looked serious and serious, "First, I don't want people to roast me on the fire, and second, I don't believe that he has the ability to roast me on the fire." ”

"That's what I said to him." Yi Shui said, "And I also pointed out to him all the shortcomings I just mentioned." ”

"What did he say to you?" They all want to know.

"He's angry."
