The group went out of Xiaosigu Lane, entered the treasure gate, and went to a restaurant with a large face, and the shopkeeper had already prepared a good elegant seat on the second floor near the window, and the tea and fruit plates were served, and the dishes began to pick up in the kitchen. A splashed Pegasus had already gone home to invite Sun Gang's old father to come.

After a conversation, Sun Gang's father came, and it was really an old man, a very low-key slave in the slave labor team before, who had not spoken much, and then lost sight in the war, and was hit by several arrows in the legs, with a black eye patch on his face, and he walked a little high and low.

Seeing Liu Ziguang, Lao Sun hurriedly bowed down: "Manager Liu, Lao Yu 2046 Sun Jian is here, and he bowed three times to thank him for saving his life." Liu Ziguang hurriedly came over to help: "They are all old people, why are there so many politeness, they are all those who have slept on a big bunk and fished in a big pot, come, come, come, sit down and talk slowly." ”

It turned out that this Sun Jian was originally a dart master of Nanjing Zhenyuan Dart Bureau, a nine-section whip made it superb, eight years ago when he was walking in Shaanxi, he was robbed of the dart car by the rioting post guard, and people were also coerced into the rebellion, and later when he fought with the Qing army, the leader Li Zicheng was killed, and most of the people were captured by the Qing army as a new annex army, and then were captured by the Ming army when they conquered the Ming Dynasty in the south, and they were exiled to the iron factory as slave miners. The son of the family has learned the nine-section whip handed down by the family since he was a child, and after his father disappeared, he mixed with the scoundrels around him, and now he has become a tyrant in the south of the city at the age of nineteen, and he can eat both the underworld and the white way. After his father came back at the beginning of the year, the whole family was reunited, overjoyed, the draught did not forget the well digger, and the happiness did not forget Liu Ziguang, Sun Jian had to talk about the things when he was a slave in the iron factory every day, and the matter of Liu Ziguang was artistically processed, and it was described as a god general, and he also put Liu Ziguang's tablet at home, and burned incense every day, so under the edification, Sun Gang was very sensitive to the number 9527, combined with Liu Ziguang's miraculous skills, so it was confirmed that this was the benevolent prince in the family.

Liu Ziguang laughed when he heard it, and praised: "Brother Sun really has no dog son, Ling Lang's nine-section whip is deep in the whip technique, I think it has reached the realm of transformation." Hearing the legendary hero praise himself like this, Sun Gang couldn't help but become proud, and as soon as the corners of his mouth appeared with laugh lines, he was hit in the leg socket by Sun Jian's crutches, "Evil barrier, did you kowtow when you saw Engong?" Call Uncle Liu! "Liu Ziguang has a bright future, and there is no harm in climbing such a relationship.

Sun Gang hurriedly bowed down again, and greeted him as a nephew, Liu Ziguang didn't like to be called uncle by people who were a few years apart, so he helped him, "Heroes have no generation, and rivers and lakes have no age." Let's call each of our relatives, I call the old grandson brother a big brother, and the little grandson brother calls me a big brother, this is the best. ”

They are all martial artists, and they don't pay attention to those vulgar etiquette, the father and son of the Sun family saw Liu Ziguang speak, so they followed him, so they called it indiscriminately, Liu Ziguang introduced the mother and son of the Ai family to the father and son of the Sun family, and the two sides met again, and agreed that the Sun family would take care of the Ai family in the future, ensuring that no one dared to bully in Nanjing, and it was also considered to be free of Addison's worries.

After three rounds of drinking, Sun Jian asked, "What is Engong's business trip to Beijing this time?" Liu Ziguang said: "It's not for the brothers to ask for the hard-earned money that the iron factory owed us in those years. There are no outsiders here, let me make it clear, now it is a small accumulation, I want to build my own power and create a world. ”

Sun Jian praised: "A good man is just like this! I wonder if Engong has recruited a satisfactory subordinate? ”

Liu Ziguang patted Addison's shoulder next to him and said, "This is the biggest gain of my trip to the capital, to strengthen the army with science and technology!" This is what a great man once said. With Mr. Ai, my 500 Death Camp will definitely be able to roar the world! ”

Sun Gang on the side pinched the nine-section whip on his waist unconvinced, and his father was beside him, and he didn't dare to be presumptuous.

"I'm old, and I still have injuries on my body, otherwise I really want to lead the horse for Engong in the death camp. Sun Jian sighed regretfully, "You see that the dog's martial arts are okay, I intend to let him follow Engong around, saddle before and after the horse, serve in the morning and evening, I don't know if Engong is willing?" ”

"Ling Lang is good at martial arts, Liu can't ask for it, but he will be exempted before and after the saddle, I need to be the eyes and ears of the capital, and I can know the big and small things, and the people and horses who practice the front number with them are not comfortable after all." Liu Ziguang has long been interested in Sun Gang's martial arts and social relations, and the ruffians and hooligans still have a strong ability to gather intelligence.

"Gang'er, I haven't thanked Engong, you can follow Engong to make contributions in the future, the future is immeasurable, much better than your business of putting money in prints." Sun Jian said.

Sun Gang hurriedly left the table and bowed down again, and after this bow, he was Liu Ziguang's subordinates.

Hold on again, be polite, the ancients were troublesome, kneeling and kowtowing at every turn. However, the feeling of the new younger brother is good, and Lao Tzu will also have a vote of his own brother in Nanjing in the future, Liu Ziguang laughed in his heart.

After being full of wine and food, Sun Jian and Ding Libin went together with silver tickets to help redeem the Ai family's ancestral house, and the splashers followed, forgiving them and not being bullied by the pawnshop, Liu Ziguang took his newly acquired younger brother Addison and Sun Gang to ride a horse to visit Nanjing City.

Listening to Sun Gang tell the story of Nanjing's terroir all the way, he unconsciously walked outside the Shuixi Gate, probably a subconscious move, Liu Ziguang came to the vicinity of the mission in the Song Kingdom.

The stationing of the mission occupies a very wide area, a deep house compound, relying on Mochou Lake, with beautiful scenery and fresh air. It is that there are some small traders around who are not attentive to trading, and at a glance, they know that they are the spies of Dongchang and Jinyiwei.

Liu Ziguang walked along the lake, "What do you all know about the people of the Song Dynasty?" Let's hear it. "Let me start by saying that the sea ships of the Song Dynasty are huge, with sails and steam engines, and the combined speed is much faster than that of the Ming Dynasty." Sun Gang said teasingly, "Also, the people of the Song Dynasty are extremely rich, and they use gold and silver coins to make their shots, and the fineness is better than that of Kuping Yinhai!" They also used a type of paper money called Jiaozi, which had the same credit as the silver notes of Rishengchang, and the merchants of the capital and the port of Shanghai often used both silver notes and Jiaozi for large transactions. ”

It's kind of interesting. "What else?" Liu Ziguang continued to ask.

"And ...... There is also the shaving of the Song people, their shaving hair is not the same as the pig tail of the Manchu Dynasty, for the convenience of life at sea, shaving short hair, very fierce, if it weren't for my father to stop, I would also like to have a hairstyle like that, of course they don't force shaved their hair, some old people are the same as our Ming people. In addition, a kind of food in the Song Dynasty, packed in an iron box, can be put for a long time, whether it is pork or beef, or fruits and vegetables, can be concocted in the same way, and it will not be bad if it is placed at home as an adult. ”

"It is called canned food, which is a food that is soaked in concentrated salt water and sugar water to prevent decay and deterioration, and it is mainly a food invented for long-term sea travel." Addison added on the side.

It seems to be a science and technology-based country, "Have you ever seen the army of the Song Kingdom?" Liu Ziguang asked.

Sun Gang replied again: "I have seen their sailors, they all wear white narrow-sleeved shirts and big crotch pants, wear white hats, even their boots are white, their faces are very tanned, and their hands are very black when they fight. However, now their warships do not come to the capital often, and I heard that there are still a few of them parked in Shanghai. If you are interested, you can take a look. As for the infantry army, they have never seen it, and even the ones in charge of guarding the mission are the marines below their naval division. ”

"You only know one thing, but you don't know the other." Addison went on to say, "The sailors of the Song Dynasty only wore white when it was hot, and now this season should be navy blue. The imperial court had an agreement with them that the sailors of the two sides could visit each other, but no more than three ships at a time, and no army personnel were allowed to land on the shore. Their naval division combat effectiveness was the strongest among the countries of the South Seas, and no one dared to touch the merchant ships escorted. ”

"What about our Ming warship? I heard that there was a kind of treasure ship when the eunuchs of Sanbao went to the Western Ocean in the past, could it not compare to their ships? Liu Ziguang said strangely.

"In terms of size, of course, it is a lucky ship, but the hull of the Song Dynasty is iron, so we can't compare with this one." Addison replied.

So it is, a country like a mystery, if you have the opportunity, you must go sightseeing, Liu Ziguang stopped and looked at the building complex of the Song Dynasty Mission in the green trees, with a lot of thoughts.

Suddenly, a strange branch in the bush caught his eye, a green metal object that looked like a tree branch, swaying in the wind and the real branches around it were clearly different, what do you do with such a high metal pole? Could it be...... Antenna?

"Mr. Ai, is it possible to send a message through a radio wave and receive it immediately from thousands of miles away?" Liu Ziguang asked.

Addison was shocked: "Benefactor, you are really unfathomable, and you also know such a mysterious thing as magnetic wave signals!" It should be possible, Xiao Ke once made a set of such devices, including: antennas, transmitters, metal chip detectors, batteries, and electric bells, but the signal can only be transmitted for five miles, and it is not clear if it is far away. ”

"Then look at the trees of the mission in the distance, is that immobile branch an antenna?" Liu Ziguang asked, pointing to the suspected antenna.

However, the distance was too far for Addison to see, but he admitted: "The discovery of electromagnetic waves was the result of the research of a Lu Song dynasty Hanlin named Hao Ci, who had always been ahead of the curve in this respect, and it was not impossible to invent a telegraph that could travel thousands of miles." ”

It is a very high possibility of a radio antenna, from Nanjing to Shanghai, and then from Shanghai to the radio relay ship at sea, and then to the capital of the Song Dynasty, the radio waves only need a moment to transmit all important information, and it is confidential and fast, and if it is used in war, it is even more powerful, as long as there are a few reconnaissance groups carrying radio stations, then the enemy is transparent.

Sun Gang was so confused that he was puzzled by what he heard, and asked the two: "What kind of wave are you talking about?" Why can't I understand? ”

Liu Ziguang smiled but did not answer, he already had a plan in his heart about what to change for "Sketching Rare Birds", he didn't need the gold and silver of the Song Dynasty, he wanted technology, developed foreign technology. It is believed that the royal family of the Song Dynasty under the contact of wireless telegraphy will soon know about his request, and as for whether to agree or not, it depends on the political wisdom of the other party.
