Chapter 231 Big fight
The old man is talking about Father Zhao. This "old man" who is only in his fifties has been working in a mine in Bilbao, but he has not shown up for a long time. Everyone went out to greet him, and even Mother Zhao pretended not to care.
He followed everyone. As soon as he went out, he found that Xiao Tian had already gone out before everyone else.
This time Angelo went to Bilbao, where he handed over the goods. After picking up Father Zhao, he immediately turned back without wasting a moment. There was no storm on the road and it was smooth sailing, so he came back so quickly.
Father Zhao had been on the boat for nearly a day, but he was extremely excited and did not look tired at all. He ate with Angelo first, and while eating, he chatted loudly with his son.
First, he boasted about his mining level. The iron ore mine in Bilbao was already operating normally under his guidance. He had perfectly solved many on-site problems without the support of modern technology. He was worthy of being one of the few people in the world in the seventeenth century.
Some craftsmen.
It is said that most of the EuroLeague trial players have master's degrees and PhDs, and a few candidates are at least undergraduates. College graduates like Zhao's dad, and experienced craftsmen on site are really scarce. Zhao's dad is not bragging.
However, I believe that the East Coast, Huamei, Australia and Lingao should have trained many mining technicians, but Lao Jiu cannot find them. It is not an exaggeration for Zhao's father to be proud.
Then he said that when he came back, he found that the castle had stopped construction, and he was just waiting for him, a big worker, to come back and install water, electricity and other hidden projects before he could start the interior decoration. It can be seen that in this home, isn't it obvious who plays the most important role?
Mother Zhao didn't like hearing this. The most capable person was obviously her son, and she was about to snatch the jug from the "old man's" hand. Father Zhao immediately surrendered, stopped bragging, and started talking about Lao Jiu's territory.
It is said that when Lao Jiu came online this time, he found out that the Spanish cavalry had come to cause trouble. He was immediately furious and dispatched his troops to take revenge. He left one regiment to look after the house and sent the two regiments and the Basque Guards directly under him.
They were all taken away. I heard that they also sent people to contact the French troops in San Sebastian. It seemed that they were going to make a big move.
Zhao Hongjun had just finished talking with Rubens about the peaceful purchase of colonies and the peaceful settlement of the Basque issue. Here, Lao Jiu was about to fight. He couldn't help but hesitate. Then he thought, peace is not something you can ask for. If you don't show your strength, others may not.
I am willing to sit at the negotiation table with you.
Therefore, the harder Lao Jiu fights, the greater the result will be, and the more likely the Spaniards will come to the table to negotiate honestly. In history, whenever an armistice agreement is to be signed, both sides of the war have to fight hard before the armistice agreement and try to push the front line forward.
.
Lao Jiu did not discuss it with him, and he could not know about Rubens, but this operation was just right. It can be seen that God bless Maya, and Lao Jiu, a great man descended from Mount Tahumulco, is very lucky.
After having two drinks with the "old man", Zhao Hongjun went to find Ma De to study what to give to His Majesty the King.
Mader just suggested that you must give some Marc brandy to get the reputation of the Royal Wine. Unfortunately, the amber high-grade brandy that Master Stephen is researching has not been successful yet, otherwise it would be the best gift, and the rest would be optional.
There is one in the warehouse of Manor de Marques, but there is no need for Fourth Master to carry it with him. Zhao Hongjun thought for a moment, ran to Mengmeng’s room, took a set of cosmetics, and threw an LV bag into the dimensional space. That’s pretty much it.
.
As for the cute things I don’t have enough, I can just buy them when I go offline.
By the way, the fourth master doesn’t pay much attention to His Majesty the King. When he knighted you, all the gifts he brought were improvised the night before. But Louis XIII is a wise king, so he shouldn’t care about this. Besides, this improvised gift is beyond time and space.
It is a priceless treasure, and I believe His Majesty the King should be satisfied.
Now that Angelo is back, Zhao Hongjun simply finds him and explains the next mission of the clipper ship.
The first step, of course, is to send James and his wife back to Nantes and hand over James' enemies to the local officials for a public trial. After this important matter is done, after James and Ruiyun meet their parents, they have to end their family business and arrange for people to go to various places in Europe.
Big cities buy land, recruit people, etc. But if James has a need, he should take care of James's affairs first.
If you have some free time, go to London to deliver computers, electrical appliances and radios to Lao Li and An Nuan, go to Lisbon to deliver daily necessities, electrical appliances and radios to random bosses, go to The Hague to deliver Duke Zhu’s portable radio, and go to Riga to deliver Lao Hou and Dr. Chen.
The share for you and the share for sending Dabao to Genoa. Which comes first and which comes last can be arranged according to your convenience.
As for the travel workers and Mr. Yuan who sent the villagers to go overland, just leave it to Mader, so that the benefits of the core members of the European Union will be exhausted.
After everything was explained, it was late at night again. The two tense days passed, and everything was finally sorted out.
On the morning of the third day, the newly promoted Lord Tulip mounted Anna and set off alone. Before leaving, Zhao Hongjun patted Anna on the head and said, "I know you have been complaining about not running freely. This time we are going to Paris. Time is tight.
Finally you can show me what you are capable of."
Anna's tail was blowing wildly and she was very excited, obviously she understood.
It was the warm-up period just after leaving the manor, and Anna took a small jog. Zhao Hongjun’s things were thrown into the space, which was very relaxed. Looking back, Zhao’s mother, Nidalee, Made, James, Ruiyun and Angelo were still there.
Seeing each other off at the door, looking at him from afar, Zhao's father was not worried about his son at all, and had already led people to start wiring the castle.
However, Xiaotian followed him and ran to the bank of the Yare River. He stood on the small bridge and looked towards this side with a serious face. However, Zhao Hongjun knew that this dog brother was not sending a gift to him, but to his good friend Anna.
After passing the Garonne River Ferry, crossing the two rivers, and then crossing the Dole River Ferry, Anna's spiritual leader came and gradually accelerated. Zhao Hongjun only felt that the scenery on the roadside flashed by quickly, and it felt like he had reached
The speed of driving a cruiser in modern times.
Fortunately, the road from Bordeaux to Paris is the best built in France at this time. Travelers on the roadside heard the crisp sound of the purple bell. When they looked back, a black shadow had passed by. When they looked back, they could only see
To a cloud of smoke and dust.
Back then, the young marshal once raced a train on a BMW, probably at this speed.
At noon, we caught up with the large team of Mengmeng and Chu's father and mother. The convoy traveled for more than two days, and it only took Anna half a day to catch up.
I got off my horse and exchanged some polite words with my father-in-law. I was caught by Mengmeng and kissed me twice. I got on my horse and continued to gallop. It was still light in the afternoon and we had already arrived at Laai.
It was impossible to go to Paris today, and it was not as convenient to stay in other places as in our own territory here. So although Anna still looked excited, Zhao Hongjun decided to stay here.
Zhao Hongjun calculated it and found that he had run nearly 300 kilometers in the past half day. It seemed that Anna was free to run, and it was really no problem to travel thousands of miles a day. However, Anna was sweating this time, and she really ran all the way.
In Paris, I might get seriously ill, and it's hard to tell if I'll have to recover for three months to lose weight.
At this speed, I guess I can get a place in horse racing in modern times. It seems that the so-called red rabbit horse in ancient times is probably like this. I have found a treasure. I don’t blame the Sheriff for trying to steal the old Lord’s horse.
heritage.
The journey the next day was not as long as yesterday. The fourth master rode alone and arrived at the Chateau Brie on the outskirts of Paris in two days.
First, I met Mengmeng’s grandparents, both of whom are only in their sixties. Mengmeng’s family comes from a scholarly family. Her grandmother did not have a job, but her grandfather was a retired physics teacher. He was well-maintained and looked very young.
This time, Mengmeng and Chu's father and mother Chu had to install the electrical appliances they brought, without Zhao's intervention. Chu's father and Mengmeng's grandfather are both physics teachers, so they are probably better at installing electrical appliances than Zhao's father.
Then, accompanied by the old butler, he inspected the manor and the wine merchant's inn, and also paid a special visit to the master of beer brewing. This master was regarded as the master who taught the fourth master the secrets of brewing beer. The fourth master was already an earl, and he didn't know how to learn to brew beer.
What is the use.
