Chapter 14 Military Camp
Before lunch, John came to the hotel in advance and wanted to invite George to have lunch. George agreed, but it was George who paid the bill. After lunch, the two of them took a car sent by the bank and came to the bank in advance. Because Yu
Before the other three companies sign an agreement, George needs to sign an entrustment contract with the bank so that the bank can arrange a lawyer for George and help him handle subsequent transfers and other work.
Of course, this is all for a fee, and it was also part of George's previous plan. If he could use a few dollars in exchange for time, George thought it would be a very cost-effective deal. If George was asked to find a lawyer, a winery, etc., it would probably be
It's so annoying.
In this way, representatives from the four parties signed the contract under the witness of lawyers from several parties. George also issued a check on the spot to pay off all the money except John's commission. As for how the bank divided the check among them,
That's not what George cares about.
On the other side, after everyone left the conference room, John came over with George's attorney and said to George: "Mr. Orwell, we will handle all transfer procedures within three days. But before that,
, you need to give your new winery a nice name."
George laughed and said, "Let's call it Panlong Winery. Thank you for your hard work." After saying that, he took out two envelopes from the inner pocket of his suit. The thicker one was handed to John, and the thinner one was handed to John.
To the young lawyer.
Americans are not modest and opened the envelope directly in front of George. John's share was the 1,500 US dollars promised to him before, and the lawyer's share was just prepared. A 100 US dollars was an extra reward, although
His salary has already been paid in the previous amount.
Both of them were very satisfied when they saw the amount. They bowed slightly to George and said, "Thank you, Mr. Orwell."
"Okay, John, we're not done yet. In this case, you go and help me make arrangements. I want to meet with all the winemakers and workers of the two production sites tomorrow afternoon."
Then after signaling the lawyer to leave, George asked John to calculate how much wine all the wineries in the town now have. How much would it cost if they were to be purchased together.
John immediately understood George's intentions and knew that working for this person was really beneficial. Only four days later, he got the bonus of US$1,500, which was equivalent to 300 days of his salary. So George explained
John was particularly attentive to the things that came down.
I won’t mention the main body for now.
The clone in Washington received the request from the main body in the morning and rented an empty warehouse on the property of the Corleone family. As soon as he returned to the hotel, he saw Pombo and Lane on the sofa in the lobby, drinking coffee and chatting. George
Knowing that they must be really waiting for him, he walked directly towards them.
"Hi, Uncle Aisen, why are you free today?"
"Oh, George, I have a day off today and I am going to take you to a fun place."
"Hey, Uncle Aisen, I'm only sixteen years old and I'm still growing. You'd better go to those fun places with Uncle Ryan. Haha, but if you want to go now, isn't it too early?"
, just laughing on the side.
Pang Bo blushed at what he said, and knew that this kid must have overheard what he and Ryan were talking about while drinking coffee. They were so far away, and this guy has really good hearing.
You know, George's body has been slowly improving. There is no shortcoming in this kind of improvement. When the surrounding environment is not noisy. Within a radius of 20 meters, he can hear clearly as long as he wants to hear.
of.
Ryan came to Pangbo's rescue with a smile: "Pangbo is going to take us to the training ground of the Self-Defense Forces."
"Yes, let's go. This is where a man should be."
Forty minutes later, the three of them arrived at a military camp in the car brought by Pang Bo. At the door, after Pang Bo registered with his identity information, the car passed smoothly. The three of them changed places in the parking lot.
A jeep-style car began to tour the entire training ground. Military camps in this era were relatively simple. In addition to training driving skills, there were also various shooting trainings and various physical trainings. It seemed
It’s also very lively.
George was a little curious when he saw several tanks running on the training ground. These tanks were all a bit punk style, but the styles were quite interesting anyway. During the period, Pangbo also arranged for George to experience it in the tanks. The space was too small, and there were
It felt like a stuffy can, and George came out after experiencing it.
Then Pombo took George to the shooting training range, where a group of soldiers happened to be training. The leader was a forty-year-old white man about 180cm tall, with a strong build and a typical American big nose.
When the leader saw Pang Bo, he gave the job to the adjutant and waved to Pang Bo from a distance.
After walking here, I saw Ryan and said with a smile: "Hi, Ryan, long time no see!"
"Haha, yes, long time no see, Chester Phillips."
It seems that they must know each other. This time, without being introduced by Pombo, Ryan turned to George and introduced him: "George, this is Chester Phillips, who used to be your father's comrade, but he is
In charge of another regiment."
On the other side, Pombo also introduced George's identity to Chester Phillips. He also introduced Leander next to him, "He is now a major."
George reached forward, shook hands with Chester Phillips and said: "Hello, Major Mr. Phillips"
"Hello, George Orwell, welcome to visit."
When George saw Chester Phillips up close and heard his name was Chester Phillips, he began to feel confused. Because he also knew a man named Chester Phillips, and the two of them had never been together.
They are at least 80% similar in appearance.
Before George could think clearly, the three of them walked towards the firearms training ground for new recruits on the other side. George put his doubts aside for the time being and followed them towards that side.

There is a row of tables in the training ground here, each table is separated by partitions, there are bullet boxes on the table, and a soldier stands in front of the table.
George also recognized the rifle they were holding because this gun was very famous in his previous life.
The Chinese name is M1903 Springfield sniper rifle. "Springfield" sounds like a Japanese name. In fact, this gun is produced by the Springfield Arsenal in the United States. Springfield is translated into Chinese as "Spring Field", referred to as "Springfield", and has nothing to do with Japan.
Regardless, this is probably the most misunderstood gun by Chinese military fans. It is definitely an original American product.
The Springfield M1903 7.62mm rifle was approved as the standard equipment of the U.S. military on June 19, 1903, and 100 years after it was equipped, it is still serving in a small amount in the U.S. army. This "old gun" has gone through a century of history
"It has been baptized by the First and Second World Wars, and has experienced countless flames of war. It is the favorite of American soldiers. It was also used by the early US Marine Corps.
Seeing the soldiers in front lining up for practice, the banging noises and the smell of gunpowder made George want to shoot a few rounds.
The three middle-aged men next to him can understand George's thoughts when they see his expression. There is no man who doesn't love this thing.
Several people looked at each other and smiled. At this time, Phillips walked up to George and said, "Haha, how about it? I want to try it."
George did not refuse: "Okay, but I have never shot a rifle, so I still need to ask you for advice."
"Haha, I'm happy to." After saying that, he took the lead and walked towards the target position at the far end.
The three Georges also came over. When they arrived at the position, the major picked up the rifle placed on the table. Then he introduced the rifle to George: "The Springfield M1903 7.62mm manual rifle is a manual bolt action
, single shot, caliber is 7.62*51 mm
The ammunition is 0.30-06 (7.62x63 mm) M1906 rifle ammunition, magazine capacity: 5 rounds, built-in magazine, total length: 1097 mm
Weight: 3.94 kg, muzzle velocity: 823-853 meters/second. Generally, new recruits need to start practicing by holding the rifle to get familiar with and adapt to the weight of the rifle. Then they can train the posture, and finally target shooting."
After saying that, he picked up the rifle in a standard stance, aimed at the gun target in front of him, pulled the trigger, and there was a bang. With George's eyesight, he could clearly see that it hit the target.
Then the major handed the gun to George and corrected George's posture step by step. When there was no problem, he let George fire the first shot. As expected, it missed the target.
This is normal. This is the first time in George's life that he has played with a real gun. His excitement cannot be concealed. No matter how good his physical fitness is, he still has to go through a process of adaptation.
Then while several grown men laughed, George pulled the bolt of the gun, pulled the trigger and fired the second shot. This time, the bullet missed the target and flew out. Then the third shot, the fourth shot,
The fifth shot, I changed the magazine and fired five more times.
Then Major and Pangbo couldn't stop laughing, because not only had they hit the target, but the last two shots had also hit the seventh ring. This progress was indeed too fast.
Ryan is already used to George's surprises. And he has also practiced ninjutsu himself. Although it has only been a few months, he dared to shout "He will fight twenty", so Ryan is not very surprised.
The major said: "George, have you really never touched a gun before? It's incredible." Pangbo also nodded and said yes.
"Of course, this is my first time shooting a gun in my life." George laughed and replied.
In fact, he had already let it slip just now. The last two shots could definitely hit the red heart, but that was a bit too exaggerated. It would be better to keep a low profile!
Of course, he was talking about shooting a gun for the first time, and it was certainly not the first time he touched a gun. His father’s collection of guns was all stored in his space.
"You boy, it would be a pity not to be a soldier. You are born to be a shooter."
"Here, let's try the pistol again." After saying that, he took out the pistol from his waist and handed it to George, and told him the essentials of shooting the pistol.
George took the gun, bang bang bang, one shot after another, and controlled his score to be around the seventh ring. Anyway, wherever he went, there was a bullseye, and others didn’t know where he was specifically aiming. The bullets in the pistol
After the shooting, George did not change the magazine, and returned the gun to the major and stopped preparing for target shooting. There was no fun in the crowd. The few people saw that he had had enough fun and did not say anything. Then they continued to wander around.
When George met someone he was interested in, he asked the two big guys next to him to arrange a trial. In the entire military camp, what he was most interested in was actually flying a plane.
From the reconnaissance role of aircraft in the early days of World War I, everyone was polite, to the later stages of beating dogs' heads, throwing bricks, and man-made missiles, to the final air combat. From the initial aircraft made of wood and canvas to the later iron aircraft. From a
The application of aircraft in the war, in just a few years, seemed to have played a fast-forward button. The same was true at that time with the rapid changes in technology.
George put back his divergent thoughts, watched how the pilot maintained the plane, and asked the pilot for advice on how to fly the plane. At this time, there were not hundreds of buttons to fly the plane. So it was quite easy to learn. After half an hour, George had mastered it.
It’s clear. It’s just theory but no practice. George’s point of view has always been that there are too many skills to overcome, so he usually won’t let go of learning opportunities.
In the afternoon, George and the others walked around the military camp. In the evening, they found a place to have dinner together. During the dinner, George would only chime in with a few words when talking about him, and the rest of the time they would eat quietly. Because, the main body
