ACT131: Own Turf
"I have just confirmed with the Soviets that the latest batch of supplies will not arrive in Qingdao until a week, and this time it is all stuff and no one. It is said that the 'Great Forest' in Moscow instructed the Comintern to recruit 'international columns' all over the world, and then asked the volunteers to go to Spain at their own expense. β
In the small conference room of the Zhao family, Zhao Jian is explaining the business priorities for the next year with his henchmen, and the current seven cargo ships will be mainly used for the transportation of materials to the Spanish colonies. In addition, the "Light Wave" and "Jade Wave", which are still under construction, will also be put into use as soon as they are completed.
It is worth mentioning that Zhao applied for the two 12,000-ton freighters to join the Navy's "National Self-Police Corps" program, which allows the hull design to reserve "weapon slots" and maintain a level of armament that exceeds that of ordinary civilian ships. The navy will pay 30% of the cost of construction, but the two ships will be requisitioned by the military if needed in wartime.
Zhao Jian predicts that in the next 1~2 years, the Spanish battlefield will become a huge testing ground for all kinds of new weapons and new tactics on both sides of the war, and these valuable combat experiences are exactly what the Tang army lacks at present.
In fact, on the day Zhao Jian returned, he received a call from the North Industries Corporation, and the other party hoped that he could help bring some of the products of the North Industries to the Spanish battlefield for actual combat testing, and the heavy industry department responsible for the development of armored aircraft asked him to write an observation report on the new armored aircraft units of the Soviet Union and Germany, the more detailed the better!
Datang's current three mecha are the first generation of experimental works in the military industry, and they all belong to the "Problem Children" series. In it, the armor of the maned dog was complained about like papier-mΓ’chΓ©. The three-legged structure of the giant crab is too complex, so it often "falls flat" due to improper operation, and although the wolf has a balanced performance, it has no characteristics at all.
If these three "problem children" are sent to the battlefield now, a large number of pilots will inevitably be killed.
In addition to the ground battlefield, the skies of Spain were also lively after the arrival of the Republican government's home fleet. The third ship of the Spanish class "Haimei I" is currently leading a vote of "elementary school students" to find her second sister in space, and the bigwigs above hope that they can be responsible for guarding the supply line, but the impulsive Haimei I is eager to question Alfonso in person, asking her why she is treasonous?
Knowing her sister's temper, Alfonteo took advantage of this and repeatedly appeared to lure her away. Create an opportunity for the Sisters of Ganalias to attack the supply ships. If the ship's impulse comes up. Hundreds of people on the whole ship can't stop it at all!
At present, the first leg of this civil war has just been played, and it is currently in a stalemate phase, and the Republican Army is mobilizing troops to prepare for a counteroffensive. And the Nationalist Army took the initiative to begin to shrink the defensive line. The positions of the two sides were reversed at once.
The group's small meeting was quickly completed. After the crowd dispersed. In the conference room, Zhao Jian and Hongling, who were standing next to him and bowing his head to tidy up the text, were left. At this time, Zhao Jian stared at Hongling's skirt twice, and suddenly reached out to pull the corner of the other party's skirt. When the little maid saw this, she immediately panicked, and her little face instantly turned red to the point of dripping blood.
"Young, young master! What are you doing? β
"Xiaoling. How long have you been wearing this maid outfit? β
"I just changed it today?"
"No, I'm not asking you this, I'm asking how long it has been since you first wore this maid outfit?"
"It's been almost a year and a half."
"I said! The color of this material is a little dark, and don't you feel tight in it? Look at the clothes are so tight. Let's go, while it's still early, let's go to Tailor Tang to have a look, young master, I will personally measure your body, and then make a few new sets of beautiful clothes, hehehehe......"
Since becoming a ship mother for more than a year, Hongling's physical growth has never stopped. Zhao Jian was a little puzzled at first, after all, none of the other Heavenly Maidens continued to grow, only Hongling and Xiao Lu had this situation. So he took the time to go to the maintenance station to check the information, and found that it was related to the divine core used by Hongling's transformation.
The age of the Celestial Maiden's appearance is limited by its divine core, and the larger the ideal value, the older the Celestial Maiden's appearance. Below 5,000 tons are young girls, 5,000~20,000 tons are girls, and the vast majority of those over 20,000 are royal sisters, and only a very small number of "abnormal" are exceptions, such as some "flat-topped boats......
In view of this, the ideal value of 50,000 tons of Hongling is far from reaching her growth limit, Zhao Jian speculates that she can continue to grow to about 30 years old, and then her appearance will be constant, that is, the "eternal youth" that can make thousands of women jealous and crazy!
Hongling, who knows what kind of character her young master has, knows very well that if she goes, she will definitely not just try on a set of clothes. Just as the two were "pulling and pulling", a petite figure flashed in from outside the conference room.
"Brother Xiao Zhao, Sister Xiao Hong, what are you doing?"
"Little, little Mo!?"
The one who flashed in from outside the door was none other than the Zhao family's "new eater" Moratica's little sister, that is, the soul of the giant god soldier Chiyou. This old monster is more cute than the real LOLI because he pretends to be tender, so he is quite favored at home. In addition, Zhao Jian found that the other party's camouflage ability was very powerful, and several ship wives in the family, except for King Kong who vaguely found something wrong by his intuition, Hongling and Xiao Lu did not notice it at all.
As of now, Zhao Jian has not told anyone the true identity of Chi You, after all, the divine core is not comparable to the giant god soldier, the former is just capital, and the latter is capital that can rebel. If the country knew that he Zhao Jian had secretly hidden an S-class giant god soldier, all kinds of "relevant departments" would definitely come to the door in minutes.
Therefore, Zhao Jian only told a small number of henchmen that the identity of this little girl was "not simple", and nothing else was revealed.
Seeing Chi You who suddenly ran in, Zhao Jian looked the other party up and down, and saw that the other party was wearing Hongling's old clothes, so the corners of his mouth curled up in an evil arc, and he reached out to press the other party's shoulder, revealing a "goldfish guy" general smile.
"Little Sister Mo, how about my brother take you to buy new clothes?"
ββ¦β¦βx2
In this way, Zhao Jian took the two "non-human" girls, one black and one white, out of the house and went straight to the clothing store on the commercial street. Zhao Jian's garment factory is built in the warehouse area behind the garment store, and if one or two sets of ordinary clothes are cut, Tang Tailor's elite team can do it in less than two hours.
After the three of them went out with two bodyguards, they took a shortcut and walked for less than 20 minutes to the clothing store, but Zhao Jian was stunned as soon as he arrived at the door, only to see a row of 8 white men with sunglasses in front of his store.
"I'm sorry for this gentleman, I'm here for a charter today, please go somewhere else."
"Chartered? Master, my store was chartered by someone else, and I won't be allowed to enter? Several! This is Qingdao in Datang, not San Francisco in the United States. Running other people's land is still so horizontal, do you think this is the Philippines and Cuba? β
ββ¦β¦βxN
Zhao Jian's loud words immediately attracted the side eyes of many people on the street, and several white bodyguards were not idiots, they knew very well that this was the territory of Datang, even if their employer was a person with "status", their influence here was almost equivalent to "0". At this time, the Tang tailor in the shop noticed the situation at the door, hurriedly ran out, pinched the orchid finger and messed up the chests of several big men, always feeling that he was suspected of taking advantage of the opportunity.
"Hey, hey, hey! What do you want to do? Sue you, this is our host, you are chartering, and you can't prevent him from entering your own store. It's great not to do your business, what's so great about foreign devils!? β
Although the sissy is full of flavor, Lao Tang's momentum is not weak, and the other party who poked the other party retreated again and again. Several bodyguards immediately looked at each other, and the leader of them glanced into the store, and after getting someone's nod of approval, he bowed his head to Zhao Jian and said "I'm sorry", and then respectfully stepped aside.
"Old Tang, who's in the store? You're just going to let them put a god at our door!? β
"I don't know anyone, the young man is very handsome, and he seems to be American with an accent. When I arrived at the door of our house, I fell in love with the styles you designed at a glance, and then came in and shouted "masterpieces" or something, the other party ordered 120 sets of 8 styles each in one breath, all of them are high-end fashion, I was thinking about such a big gold owner, let him pack a few games should be nothing, I didn't expect them to stop you. β
"I'm really convinced...... I want to see, do you think this kid can be as handsome as this young master!? (To be continued......)
PS: Recently, the state is not very good, and I often encounter "ghost pressure bed" when I sleep at night, and Yan zhΓ²ng affects the quality of sleep, so I reflected this with the guys in the author's group, to see if they have any solutions, and as a result, this group of beasts comforted me, there must be a beautiful female ghost pressing me, so I made up the scene of being pressed by Miss "Geng Xizi" in my brain...... Now I suddenly have a little anticipation for sleeping at night! Is it swollen?
