"I can't guess, but how much silver do we still have? We must have spent quite a lot in the past few years, right?”
"Hehe, don't worry. Your son is a rich man now. I've recently earned more than ten million taels!”
"..." Zhang Zhaoshi's hand trembled." How much?"”
"Don't worry about it. When we reach the Bald Eagle Country, I'll open a lot of companies. When the time comes, help me look after them. After all, I still have to go to school!”
"Do you still have to go to school? What else can't you do?"
He needed more real objects to set up many companies. By then, what machine tools and equipment could he not get his hands on?
In addition, it was unknown if a war would break out. At this moment, the arms race in Europe had already begun, especially the warships. When the Dreadnaught appeared, it had already explained everything.
Zhang Hanqing was prepared to make a fortune in preparation for the long-drawn war. When the war was almost over, he just happened to return to the northeast.
Everything was so perfect!
……
In three days, Thomas Williams chose two pieces of land in the French concession and even brought a map to see Zhang Hanqing.
One piece of land was about 1500 square meters, and the other was about 2000 square meters. Zhang Hanqing directly chose a large one.
Such a large piece of land was only worth ten thousand taels of silver. It could be seen how cheap the concession was now.
If it was another year, the price of this piece of land would increase by at least ten times. Zhang Hanqing laughed in his heart. Four architects had arrived.
After the introduction, they found out that they were working for Zhang Hanqing, and they respected him.
"Also, the architectural features of each country shouldn't be too obvious. They need to be combined to make it look natural. I need it to be grand, spacious, and safe!”
One was from the Braid Kingdom, one was from the Cow Kingdom, one was from the Rooster Kingdom, and the last one was from the Bald Eagle Kingdom.
The Bald Eagle Country was not recognized by Europe in terms of art and architecture, but Thomas Williams still found such a person. After all, Zhang Hanqing was going to the Bald Eagle Country.
Moreover, he couldn't hand over such an important client to an architect from another country.
"Mr. Zhang, there is no problem with the garden!”" It's not a big problem for our country's architecture to integrate with other countries.”
The other three architects were also surprised and turned to look at him.
"Oh? It seems that you are very confident?"
"Alright, then you can make more decisions!”
"Yes, sir!"
Zhang Hanqing was also surprised. However, this kind of talent that had been passed down from generation to generation was still worth investing in. In the future, he would also take him under his wing. However, he had to see his ability first.
After that, he took care of some trivial matters. The villa he was currently living in was not for sale. The butler, Uncle Fu, Zhang Liu, the servant girls, the coachman, and the chef continued to live in it and were responsible for taking care of the place.
……
"Mr. Zhang, I heard that you are still interested in warships?”Thomas Williams came again, and the day of his departure was getting closer and closer!
"Of course, why?" Zhang Hanqing asked.
Zhang Hanqing was rather surprised. Could it be the Big Bai Fleet?
"Oh, there's actually such a thing. That's great!”Although he was puzzled, he did not show it." But why would your fleet suddenly come here?”
"Actually, this fleet set off early in the morning. It traveled from America to Europe, then to Asia. This was a round-the-world voyage, and then returned to the mainland from the Pacific Ocean!”
Zhang Hanqing understood now. It was indeed the Big Bai Fleet. However, it was slightly different from his own time and space, and the time did not match, but the specific nature was the same.
After the appearance of the Dreadnaught, the previous Dreadnaught battleships were instantly outdated. The Bald Eagle Kingdom could do nothing about this. Some of the battleships had just been launched, and they were still new!
The problem they faced was to develop battleships from scratch. What would happen to these outdated battleships?
Instead of being so outdated, it was better to take advantage of the fact that all countries were developing dreadnought ships to travel around the world and show off the industrial strength of the Bald Eagle Country.
They had painted all the battleships white, which was why they were called the Big Bai Fleet. They had sailed around the world to demonstrate their industrial capabilities. If they had the capability to build such a massive fleet, they had the capability to build another one.
However, to be honest, such a small army was a joke to Niu Niu. Niu Niu's strongest warship inspection was probably before the start of World War I. 200 warships were laid flat on the sea, with no end in sight.
That was the most shocking part. Zhang Hanqing recalled the old photo he had seen in the past.
"Of course not. When the time comes, I will come and invite you and Madam!”
It would be best if there were more types. Battleships alone would not do. Moreover, the power systems of these warships were already outdated. It could only be said that it was better than nothing!
In anticipation, the Big Bai Fleet arrived in Shanghai on April 15th. The people of Braid Country were deeply shocked by the huge warships and the huge number of them.
