Chapter 70: The First Arrival in Essen
readx;? When Boss Zhang said this, he glanced up at Wang Haitao, and then continued: "I know that you are a young and promising person, and you are already the colonel commander of the national * army at such a young age. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info Marita follow you, she will be happy. But I can't get her to go back to China with you.
I'm old, I can't work in this hotel for a few years, I only have one child here, Marita, I want her to stay in Hamburg and help me run this hotel, many Chinese watermills are used to getting help here. Do you understand what I'm talking about?"
Faced with a father like Boss Zhang, Wang Haitao didn't want to deceive him at all, so Wang Haitao said: "Boss Zhang, I can fully understand what you said, and I won't tell you that I already have a wife in China." I've talked to Marita about that. Marita told me that she would not come back to China with me, and I had no intention of bringing her back to China. ”
Boss Wang's face was relieved, and he said: "That's good, since that's the case, I don't object to you being together, of course, it's best if you can stay in Hamburg, but I think it shouldn't be possible." I hope you will remember Marita when you return home and have the opportunity to come back to see her. After saying this, Boss Zhang left the guest room.
Not long after Boss Zhang left, Marita came to the guest room again, and Marita asked, "Dear Tao, has my father been here, what did he say to you?" Wang Haitao told Marita what Boss Zhang said. After hearing this, Marita sighed and said, "Dear Tao, it would be nice if you could stay in Hamburg." ”
Just when Wang Haitao didn't know how to answer, Marita said again: "I know, this is impossible, dear Tao, come and love me well while you are still in Germany." After speaking, he fell into Wang Haitao's arms. This night was naturally a crazy night for the two.
The next morning, Wang Haitao and Marita showed up at the Hamburg train station with simple luggage, and they would board the train to Essen to start a journey that even Wang Haitao did not know what the outcome would be.
The trains of this era were not only in poor condition, but also extremely slow. The train from Hamburg to Essen takes more than 30 hours to travel from Hamburg to Essen, which is only a little more than 400 kilometers away in a straight line. Fortunately, there were not many passengers on the train, so Wang Haitao and Marita were not uncomfortable. Marita had never traveled so long before, but she was quite excited along the way, and she was always smiling.
The train that departed in the morning of the first day did not arrive in Essen until the afternoon of the second day, and after getting off the train, Wang Haitao was afraid that it would be rude to go to Lucas and Dina at this time, so he spent the night in the hotel with Marita. On the morning of the next day, the two of them came to the headquarters building of Krupp together.
At this time, the Krupp company, because it was involved in the supply of ordnance to the German military, so the people on duty at the gate were all German soldiers, and members of the SS were also among them. Wang Haitao stepped forward to show his ID and explained that he had come to find Lucas and Dina, the managers of the production department, and the soldiers on duty at the door asked Wang Haitao to wait at the door, and he turned around and entered the duty room to make a call.
Twenty minutes later, a person hurriedly walked over from a distance in the company, and when he came to the door, he asked the soldier on duty, "Who is looking for me?" At this time, Wang Haitao walked over and said: "Are you Mr. Lucas and Mr. Diner? I am Wang Haitao from the United States, and it was the manager of Morgan Bank that asked me to come to you." Lucas and Dina glanced at Wang Haitao after listening to Wang Haitao's words and nodded.
Lucas said to the soldiers on duty, "This is my guest, let them in." The soldiers on duty at the gate only then registered the information of Wang Haitao and the two of them and let them go. Lucas said to Wang Haitao: "Please come with me, two of you." After speaking, he turned around and left, and Wang Haitao and the others followed behind Lucas. On the way, Lucas didn't say a word, and walked for about ten minutes before arriving at the headquarters of the Krupp company.
After Wang Haitao and the others were taken to a reception room by Lucastie, Lucas first invited them to sit down, and then ordered his subordinates to bring coffee, and then said to Wang Haitao: "Mr. Wang, it was my personal friend Mr. Pete who repeatedly told me that if I wanted to take care of you, I would bring you here." So are you in a hurry to find me something?"
Wang Haitao didn't mind Lucas's attitude, because Bijing had to ask him. It's just that I'm a little uncomfortable with the straightforward way of speaking of the Germans. Seeing Lucas so direct, Wang Haitao stopped talking nonsense and said directly: "Mr. Lucas, that's right, I am a Chinese soldier, and I have designed several firearms in China, but the quality of China's steel is too poor, so I want to ask your Krupp company to produce these firearms for me." ”
Lucas smiled contemptuously and said, "As far as I know, you China has produced a rifle from your Hanyang Arsenal based on the Type 1888 rifle that our Germany has eliminated, and is equipping the army, while the better troops are buying our Type 1998 rifles."
The machine guns are also Czech light machine guns and Maxim heavy machine guns. If you want guns, I'll help you purchase the last batch for Pete's sake, and as for processing and producing with your design, I think it's better to forget it. ”
Wang Haitao smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Lucas, as the manager of the production department of Krupp Company, you must be very proficient in firearms. I've already brought my blueprints with me today, why don't you take a look at them for yourself?"
Lucas shrugged his shoulders and said, "Well, for Pete's sake, I'll take a moment to look at your blueprints." Hearing Lucas's words, Wang Haitao took out a few design drawings from the leather bag beside him and handed them to Lucas.
One is an exploded view of the "54" type pistol; the other is an exploded view of the "56" type semi-automatic rifle; the other is an exploded view of the "56" type submachine gun; the other is an exploded view of the "56" type light machine gun; and the last one is an exploded view of the "57" type heavy machine gun.
Luka took the exploded view and looked at the first exploded view of the "five or six" semi-automatic rifle with disdain. Lucas deserves to be an expert, but after looking at it for a while, he ignored Wang Haitao and them, but walked straight to the office next door, sat at the table, picked up a magnifying glass on the table and looked at it carefully.
