Chapter 222: Lend-Lease of the British Fleet

"Lan Qi, what the hell are you doing?" While O'Connor and Aveline were walking in front, Zheng Zha came to Lan Qi and asked solemnly.

Lan Qi didn't stop, and smiled mysteriously, "I'll talk about it tonight!" ”

Looking at Lan Qi's smile, Zheng Zhan had a bad premonition and wanted to say something, but Lan Qi had already stepped forward and walked with the hero and heroine.

O'Connor found a hotel and asked someone to buy him some clothes, so he opened a room and went into the bathroom, while Lan Qi and the others sat on the first floor and waited for O'Connor to come down with the heroine Aveline.

O'Connor didn't hear it, but Jonathan ran in from outside, and as soon as he came in, Jonathan ran in front of Lan Qi, "Mr. Lan, I have already done what you want me to do, I happened to meet General Gavin at the intersection in front, so I asked him to wait in the restaurant opposite, Mr. Lan, you see, my payment?" ”

"Oh? So fast? By the way, I don't know who this person you are looking for? Lan Qi was a little shocked that Jonathan's movements were so fast, how long had it just passed? Ten minutes, right? Just invited the people you need?

Seeing that Lan Qi didn't believe it, Jonathan was anxious, "Mr. Lan, you can't talk and don't count, today happens to be General Gavin's holiday, and it is a coincidence that I met him, General Gavin is the commander of the British Navy in the Red Sea, I think this position is definitely suitable for your requirements, Mr. Lan." ”

"Commander of the Navy?" Lan Qi looked at Jonathan in disbelief, the commander of the Navy came out to go shopping?

"Mr. Lan, if you don't believe me, you can ask my sister." Seeing that Lan Qi still didn't believe it, Jonathan didn't know what to do, and when he saw his sister on the side, Jonathan hurriedly pulled down his sister and said.

"Alright! Mr. Lan, Admiral Gavin is indeed the British naval commander in the Red Sea, but now that the First World War is over, there is no war and this commander is a bit of a misnomer. Aveline reluctantly explained to Lan Qi.

"Alright! Jonathan. You take me there. Lan Qi pretended to think for a moment and said, saying that Lan Qi stood up and suddenly thought of something. He turned to Zheng Zhan and said, "Before I come back, let O'Connor wait." ”

Zheng Zhan was stunned for a moment, and then nodded when he thought of something. Although he didn't know what medicine was sold in Lan Qi's gourd, Zheng Zhan knew that now was not the time to ask, and he believed that Lan Qi would explain it to himself, dragging O'Connor Why Zheng Zhan understood that the distance between himself and the others and O'Connor was five thousand meters, and if it exceeded this distance, it would be wiped out.

Jonathan took Lan Qi out of the hotel and went to a very high-end looking restaurant on another street, judging from the decoration outside the restaurant, he knew that it must have been opened by Europeans, with a clear style of Western standards.

After entering, Jonathan was very skilled in leading Lan Qi through the first floor to the second floor.

"General Gavin. It's this gentleman looking for you! Jonathan led Lan Qi to a window on the second floor, where the two of them sat drinking coffee and a few small plates of snacks on the table.

Jonathan said to a man in a tuxedo in his sixties, a young man in the same costume as a young man in his twenties.

Gavin. Augustadien was originally the governor in charge of Asia, but he was transferred back because of the needs of the First World War, but when he returned to Europe, the First World War was over, and it was impossible to return to Asia, because his original position had been handed over to someone else. So put Gavin. Augustaarine was sent to the Red Sea, a very important place for the British, as commander of the navy.

"Japanese?" Gavin looked at Lan Qi suspiciously.

Lan Qi had the help of the Lord God to hear Gavin clearly. The words of Augustadinia.

"No, I'm Chinese!" Lan Qi said helplessly that it was after World War I, and it was an era of warlords on the mainland. The era of the last emperor, Yuan Datou.

"Chinese? Interesting, listen to Jonathan, do you have a business looking for me? Gavin slowly stirred the coffee in the quilt with a spoon in his hand.

"Yes, Your Excellency Commander Gavin. This business will definitely please you, and it will please you in the UK. ”

Lan Qi's words made Gavin's eyes narrow. As Gavin, who has been in charge of Asia, what does he know about these self-proclaimed Chinese? But now the Chinese in front of him can't see through him, and he has been very confident since he came in, and this self-confidence seems to be brought by himself.

"You're qualified to do business with me?" Gavin looked at Lan Qi with a smile, but the disdain that flashed in his eyes Lan Qi could see it clearly, but he couldn't help it, he had a general understanding of the status of the Chinese in the world in this era, and Lan Qi had seen a lot of this history.

"I naturally have the qualifications, my qualifications are ten tons of gold, I wonder if General Gavin feels that I have this qualification?" Although Lan Qi was dissatisfied, he knew his purpose, so he could only suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart.

Ten tons of gold? Gavin's hand stirring the coffee stopped, put down the spoon, picked up the coffee and took a sip slowly, looking at Lan Qi, trying to see something from Lan Qi's face, but unfortunately, Gavin didn't see anything no matter how he looked at it.

"Alright! You're qualified to talk to me about your intentions! Gavin put down his coffee and looked up at Lan Qi and said slowly.

"Thank you General Gavin for the opportunity, but before that, I want General Gavin to know where I came from, and I believe that knowing my origin will make it easier for us to succeed in the transaction."

"My partner and I are from a wealthy treasure hunt team, and we are not looking for ordinary treasures, but something special." Saying that, Lan Qi looked at Gavin's face.

When he said something special, Lan Qi noticed that Gavin's hand paused, and Lan Qi laughed.

"Now we are aiming for a treasure in ancient Egypt, but we have found some information that is not very good, and I believe General Gavin understands what this so-called not very good information means."

"Where's the evidence!" Gavin looked at Lan Qi with a calm face.

Lan Qi smiled mysteriously and raised his hand on the table, and the cups on the table floated out of thin air.

Gavin was not surprised to see this, but the people around Jonathan and General Gavin were shocked.

"General Gavin, what now?"

Gavin grimaced and looked up at Lan Qi, "What do you need?" ”

"Actually, I don't need anything, but I'm just borrowing some firepower from you."

"What do you mean!"

"According to the information we have found, it is very dangerous for what we are looking for, and we may not be sure to get rid of it, so I need fire support, we are in time to understand the power of gunpowder, so my business is to borrow ten tons of gold for your fleet."

Gavin narrowed his eyes, not angry or happy, looking at Lan Qi's face and thinking about something.

"I want to understand what I mean with General Gavin's qualifications, take what you seek, I will give you money, and you will deal with those troublesome things for us, although it is nothing to you, but it is also a trouble to make them make a big fuss, especially in Egypt."

If there were no gods and ghosts, Lan Qi would not say this, but this is the world of mummies, since the British occupied Egypt, no, it should be said that after Africa, a large number of Egyptian treasures have been transported back to London, and there are precious treasures anywhere on the earth in the museums of London, all of the four ancient civilizations.

This is a world of gods and ghosts, which means that the British understand what exists behind it, no, it should be said that those things in Britain or Europe also exist, such as the Holy See, vampires, werewolves, and even magicians.

Judging from the resurrection of the Mummy Three Dragon Emperors, the world here is a matter of gods and ghosts, and each region has a unique cultivation system, so Lan Qi said so.

Gavin was still silent, didn't answer Lan Qi, didn't say anything, just remained silent.

"Or General Gavin can ask for some help, but it seems to me that there are not many European gangs willing to come here, and I have also received news that my old rivals, the Indian gang, have also participated in this treasure, if the European side is added" Lan Qi did not continue, thinking that Gavin would agree.

"You're threatening me?" Jia Wenming nodded something, raised his head and squinted at Lan Qi.

Lan Qi smiled and shook his head: "If you decide to think like this, I can't help it." ”

Gavin looked at Lan Qi and suddenly laughed, "Okay, interesting, your business is my next, in the next month, the British fleet in the Red Sea will provide you with all the fire support, but there are some things don't go too far, you know"

Hearing Gavin's words, Lan Qi was overjoyed, and there was no way to trade Lan Qi to the British, the current situation of the Zhongzhou team actually followed the plot, and it has changed a lot, although there are a lot of changes with their own joining, but Zheng Zhan has been promoted to the third order, and it is impossible for the main god not to understand, but he still goes the same.

History? Lan Qi never believed in this, history is something written by the victors, and now he is not in history, but a real existence, so there is only one explanation, that is, the Yinzhou team has also produced a change, but I don't know whether this change is affected by himself or other reasons.

So Lan Qi needs some external force.

Lan Qike knows all the infinite horrors, and the power of the plot world is the best way to get through the plot, and now the most powerful force can only be used by the British fleet, the Red Sea is an important passage for Britain to hold the Indian Ocean into the Mediterranean Europe, so the power here is the most powerful except for the Atlantic.

Although it is only the end of World War I, with the current development of science and technology, without the power of battleships, the main gun firepower of cruisers, especially heavy cruisers, is 280 mm or even 305 mm caliber.

Although the current gunpowder is still black powder, the power cannot be compared with modern times, but the 280 mm shells smashed down, one or two are fine, and a dozen or so come together, even if they have to be injured, so Lan Qi has a lot of money to concession the British fleet, if there is any change in the Indian team, wait in Egypt City, he can let the British fleet attack directly, although it is unlikely to kill one or two, but it can also hit a piece, and the most important thing is that now that the First World War has just ended, the British have a large number of warships waiting to be dealt with, Therefore, the fire support I received was no less than a hundred more than 280 mm fire support, and maybe even the 350 mm guns of those battleships were possible.
