ACT025: The chest wrap is the root of all evil
Italy's focus on Ethiopia began in 1922 when Mussolini came to power. The reason why he waited 12 years to get up to it was not because the natural reflex arc was too long, but because Mussolini never felt that the time was right. On the other hand, the fact that Ethiopia has a giant god soldier in its hands also makes them very jealous!
The Ethiopian Titan was first introduced in 1896 during the Anti-Aggression War, when the invaders were the Italians. Out of contempt from above, Italy sent an expeditionary force of less than 20,000 men, thinking that it could destroy the withering and decaying, but only to kick it to the iron plate, and was defeated by the giant god in only one battle.
Since then, Ethiopia's Titan has been shrouded in a veil of mystery, with other countries knowing almost nothing about its performance other than its name, the Emerald Star.
The people are divided into three, six, nine and so on, and the giant god soldiers are also divided into levels by the strength of their combat power.
The habit of shijie in the West is to divide it into S-A-B-C-D5 grades, while in the East, it is based on Datang and is divided into A, B, C, D, and 4 grades. This difference in grading once caused confusion and quarrels between the East and the West, but neither side refused to back down, and Zuihou simply played its own game, and the standards have not been unified so far.
Except for one abuse of the Italian Expeditionary Force, the Emerald Star has not participated in any other battles, let alone fought against other giant soldiers. This has caused it impossible to judge the strength of its combat strength, some say S, some say D, it can be said that there are different opinions, but the actual situation is probably not very clear even to Ethiopia itself.
In the face of such a confusing situation, Italy had (9) giant soldiers, but it still did not dare to act rashly against the seemingly weak Ethiopia. However, this awkward situation took a turn for the better in 1935, when the Italian royal family finally agreed to send two of its strongest A-class giants to the North African colonies. These two giant soldiers will be responsible for intimidating the Emerald Star and forcing the other side to wage an unequal war with them with regular forces.
With an order with a high degree of freedom, Zhao Jian and others left Ethiopia by train and rushed north to Cairo, the capital of Egypt. There is a spaceport built by the British, and they can go home directly on a spaceship, and although the ticket is expensive to death, the speed is definitely worth the price.
Before leaving, Selassie I gave Zhao Jian a large amount of "activity funds", including purchases and necessary bribes, and Zhao Jian was actually only responsible for running errands to have a large amount of gold in his account. In the eyes of the other side, it is better to spend all this money on the purchase of arms now, rather than waiting for the Italians to fall for nothing.
After the spacepassenger ship lifted off, it flew in a reverse rotation in low earth orbit and successfully arrived in Chang'an, the capital of Datang, in only 3 hours.
The speed of the full-body spaceship is very fast, and the ability to fly is a major feature, and all other aspects of performance are also complete to ordinary ships built by humans, but unfortunately the construction is limited by the number of god cores. Don't look at the fact that in recent years, countries have successively opened up the right to use, and put some low-level god cores with low capabilities into the civilian field, but the high price is not something that everyone can afford.
Zhao Jian used almost half of his belongings a year ago to get a 2,500-ton displacement divine core from the auction, plus the cost of customizing the hull, he now has a few seeds left on hand. But as long as there is a spaceship, it will save a lot of time in transporting goods in the future, and it will also be able to run more interstellar shipping lanes.
Without stopping in the capital, Zhao Jian got on the train back to Qingdao non-stop and arrived 3 days later. As soon as Zhao Jian got off the train, he let the others go home first, and he and Qin Heng went to Qingdao to build a ship. The staff of the shipyard took them on a tour of the "Pingbo", which had been largely completed, and said that it would be delivered in two weeks, but Zhao needed to bring his own divine core.
"Uncle Qin, how much money do we have for the event now?"
"That's pretty much what Ethiopia gave! The ones I earned before were basically invested in shipbuilding. Young master, in fact, if we only do business on Earth, it is enough to get a high-speed cargo ship, and we can't do it with such a high-end thing. ”
"Uncle Qin, we have to take a long-term view, and spaceships must be had. In the future we ...... it! Why are these faceless things here again!? ”
When he was about to arrive at the door, Zhao Jian saw a small group of people gathered at the gate from a distance, and his brows couldn't help frowning. Because that group was none other than the children of the Zhao family who had completely broken with Zhao Jian more than a year ago.
Zhao Jian admits that he is not a person with a small belly, but he is not a "prime minister" who can hold the boat in his stomach.
The people next to the family cheated him, and he didn't plan to let go of these guys, but what made him feel crying and laughing was that before he could start doing it, these wastes consciously "played to death" first. Some of the "miserable" ones, and even the family is almost unable to open the pot, so sad that Zhao Jian is a little embarrassed to "fall into the well" again.
"I haven't used my strength yet, why did they all fall?"
This is Zhao Jian's most intuitive feeling after half a year of "separation"!
The collateral who have been accustomed to eating dividends, after getting the loose money, except for a few who barely get by doing small business, the others are either sitting on empty seats, or playing "venture capital" to give themselves "risk" in, and the speed of scattering money is simply staggering.
And it wasn't until the poor crotch was about to lose the wind that these side departments suddenly woke up to the fact that they were really not a piece of material. On the other hand, after the transformation of Zhao Jian's side, the "sea (jun) transportation (huo) business" is booming, and life is countless times better than theirs, so some people who hope that Zhao Jian can "miss the old" will lick their faces and come to the door again.
For this kind of naivety who thinks that all shijie must unconditionally uphold the greatest kindness to himself, Zhao Jian took on the responsibility of "teaching to be a man", and showed these relatives what "shijie's malice" is! Want to get back together, and want to take a stake in your own shipping company, and then everything is "business as usual"?
Dream on! You just squat at the door for the rest of your life, and the young master won't take you rags!
Compared with these guys who can't be on the stage, Zhao Jian's main revenge target is the Dai family who took away the tea garden, and the other party can be said to be the real mastermind behind that conspiracy, but what makes Zhao Jian feel depressed is that the backstage of the Dai family is beyond imagination.
Dai Bing's two elder sisters are married to high-ranking officials, the eldest brother-in-law is the number one leader in Qingdao's judicial circles, and the second brother-in-law is the mayor's direct secretary. Although Zhao Jian has a bit of a "military background", Datang pursues the separation of military and political affairs and does not interfere with each other. Even if the big sisters of the Northern Fleet like him as a "godbrother", it is impossible for them to do something about shelling Qingdao for him.
So it's still a matter of insufficient strength!
This era is not as hypocritical as later generations, and it is human rights, pigs, and so on. From the country to the people, everyone is still playing the most simple and crude "fist competition". As long as some things in the people are not too out of line, "family grievances" can be said to be a "gray area" that is not governed by the law.
Completely ignoring a bunch of ex-uncles and uncles who greeted him with smiling faces, Zhao Jian treated them as if they were transparent, strode into the house with Qin Heng, and then closed the door with a "bang". As for the "oops" outside the door, Zhao Jian also turned a deaf ear, and the court did not accept the claim for such a thing as hitting the door with his face!
"Keep the door closed, if those guys outside dare to call indiscriminately, call the police and say they are disturbing the people!"
After a simple command to the doorman, Zhao Jian hummed a little song and went back to his room. When passing by Hongling's room, he suddenly remembered that he had bought a small gift for the other party, so he pushed the door directly without thinking too much, and then was stunned at the door.
I saw that Hongling was changing her clothes in the room, and the little girl had been "trained" by Zhao Jian for more than a year, and now she was completely resistant to wearing a maid's outfit. The timing of Zhao Jian's break-in can be said to be very "good", the red and white shirt has just been changed halfway, and the placket is not even buttoned, so that Zhao Jian can see it squarely.
"Less, less, less, young master!"
"Xiaoling, weishenme want to use a chest wrap? I've been worried for so long! ”
"Huh!?"
Hongling, who was halfway through the change of clothes, was completely frightened by Zhao Jian's inexplicable reaction!
A year ago, 13-year-old Hongling entered the peak of her growth period, and while her height increased rapidly, her milk volume also swelled like a blow, which made her feel very distressed for a while. Out of consideration not to affect her work, Hongling secretly wrapped her chest with strips of cloth, but when she did this, Zhao Jian, who didn't know the truth, was in a hurry for a long time.
This product has been semi-openly engaged in "maid cultivation jihua", which is already a well-known thing in the Zhao family, and even this product has listed an evil "development jihua table" behind the scenes. Seeing that the "secondary sexual characteristics" should develop at a high speed, but the little maid is growing brighter, so Zhao Jian is adding food and playing with "home remedies", which is even more urgent than the parties concerned!
Now that the mystery has been solved, Zhao Jian decided to confiscate the evil chest cloth...... Then treasure it!
"You don't want to wrap this kind of thing in the future, you know? You are now growing your body, which will affect development. ”
"But if you don't entangle, it will be very inconvenient."
"What's the inconvenience?"
"Yes, it's a little in the way......"
When the little maid timidly said "it's a little in the way", Zhao Jian was startled at first, but soon he was so moved that he couldn't help crying...... His meow cultivation is finally starting to pay off significantly!
"Hongling, I'm going to buy a serious ** to wear in the future, you know?"
"It's expensive."
"Then I'll pay for it, and then I'll pick the style for you."
"Hey...... Ay!!!? ”
Zhao Jian's words suddenly startled Hongling, how "evil" her young master is in terms of dressing, she can be said to have a deep understanding of being a ** model for a year. Some "cross-era" styles, after Hongling tried them on, I felt that my life was like being splashed with indelible stains, as long as I thought about it, I would be so shy that I couldn't help rolling on the ground.
Just when Zhao Jian was ** Hongling, Liu Qingyang, who was holding a letter, happened to pass by the door, and the other party was about to go to Zhao Jian, but the other party was in Hongling's room. At this time, Zhao Jian was holding Hongling with one hand, and the little maid was disheveled and her face was flushed. The other party just wanted to pretend not to see it, but when he thought of something else serious, he coughed lightly, and didn't turn his head to bring the letter over.
"Young master, this is the sponsorship application form for the Spring Training Event of the Northern Fleet next week, please take a look."
