Chapter Two Hundred and Twenty Rogers' Invitation

When Wang Xilin heard Gao Jiu say this, his heart suddenly perked up. Zhou Mingshan also looked at Gao Jiu with great expectations, wondering what important clues he had for cracking the Sakura case?

Gao Jiu said: "On the 16th of this month, which is the day after tomorrow, the Japanese Sakura Organization will plan an operation. If my prediction is correct, the mysterious Japanese special gunman you mentioned will definitely appear near the scene.

"

This time Wang Xilin didn't say anything nonsense, such as whether the news was reliable. He directly chose to believe Gao Jiu. He immediately said: "Mr. Xiao, what do you think we should do?"

Gao Jiu told Wang Xilin and Zhou Mingshan about a spy case planned by the Sakura Organization, and then the three of them discussed the action plan together.

After finishing speaking, Wang Xilin said habitually: "The mysterious gunman of the Sakura Organization is very skilled. I wonder if we can catch him this time?"

After saying this, he immediately felt that he had said the wrong thing again. He stretched out his palm and slapped his mouth symbolically. He said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Xiao. It is our military commander's creed to doubt everything."

, I have become accustomed to this bad habit, and I have no intention of questioning you. I believe that with your help, the Japanese mysterious gunman will not be able to escape this time." After saying that, he looked at Gao Jiu with hope.

Gao Jiu smiled faintly and did not say anything.

Zhou Mingshan was so familiar with Gao Jiu's signature smile, which showed that Gao Jiu was already sure. He smiled and said, "Xilin, don't worry. With Mr. Xiao taking action, nothing will go wrong."

Wang Xilin said: "Mr. Xiao, I will go back and make arrangements right now. I will take a step first."

After Wang Xilin left, Gao Jiu left Zhou Mingshan's room and called Lin Yanni to find Rogers.

After this period of contact, Rogers learned a lot of advanced aircraft manufacturing knowledge from Gao Jiu, which opened his eyes. He is now convinced of Gao Jiu's knowledge. Gao Jiu started talking to him today. The key point

cooperation issues.

As we all know, the development cycle of large equipment like aircraft is very long. The b-24 bomber was developed on the basis of the b-19 bomber, but it has been greatly improved technically and still faces many technical problems.

Due to the difficulties, this bomber did not officially start mass production until the end of 1941.

The Integrated Volti Company has been developing it for two years, but they have not invested much money and energy, and the development process is relatively slow. This is because there are no obvious signs of World War II at this time.

No one could have predicted that in September 1939, that is, next year, World War II would officially break out. Without the demand for a large-scale war, bombers would not have such a large market.

Comprehensive - Volti Company only regards this bomber as one of its future products, and does not know what the future market will be like, and is worried that it will not be able to get orders in the future. Gao Jiu knows that this aircraft will be used on future battlefields

Show off your power and become the world's largest-selling bomber. As long as you participate in this project, you will definitely make a fortune.

Gao Jiu now wants to persuade Rogers to speed up the development of this bomber so that he can enjoy the dividends brought by World War II as soon as possible.

For the b-24 bomber, Gaojiu has ready-made drawings here, because this bomber was developed by Rogers and others. Gaojiu cannot provide them with complete drawings, but only gives them some based on their current development process.

Tip, let them avoid detours and complete the design of this aircraft as soon as possible.

Historically, it was only after the outbreak of World War II that the Integrated Volti Corporation began to invest heavily in speeding up research on this bomber. The production of aircraft was very complex, and a large number of tests had to be conducted before mass production. With high-speed

With the help provided by Nine, it was able to reach production levels before the start of World War II.

Gao Jiu plagiarized Rogers' development ideas, and of course he and Rogers had a common language. Rogers fully agreed with the ideas put forward by Gao Jiu. The more they talked, the more speculative they became. Under Gao Jiu's guidance, the design ideas for this bomber were developed by Rogers.

The mind is completely mature.

Rogers said regretfully: "I am certain that this bomber is the most advanced bomber in the world. Unfortunately, there is not such a big market. I hope to sell 1,000 aircraft, and the production cost will not be so high. The company

There will be considerable profits.”

Gao Jiu showed great confidence and said: "Mr. Rogers, you are so pessimistic. I think we can sell at least 5,000 of such a good bomber."

He knew very well that in fact, this bomber could sell nearly 20,000 units, and the Integrated Volti Company made a fortune because of it. But Gaojiu couldn't say so much, as it would scare Rogers and the others away. Even so,

Rogers also thought he was talking nonsense.

Rogers asked: "Is this possible? Which countries would need so many bombers? Is it China? As far as I know, with the economic strength of your country's air force, you can't even buy 50."

He thought Gao Jiu was going to help him sell the aircraft and get some benefits from it.

Gao Jiu smiled and said: "Don't worry, there will be a large-scale war in the world by the end of next year at the latest. By that time, bombers will be in short supply. But your company must hurry up and produce, otherwise, it will

Missed a lot of orders.”

According to Gao Jiu's estimate, if production can begin in early 1940, the number of B-24 bombers that can be sold is not just 20,000, but should far exceed this number.

Seeing that Rogers was still hesitant, Gao Jiu said: "Okay! If you don't believe it, I can buy part of your company's stock, and I will buy an industrial manufacturing company that specializes in producing accessories for B-24 bombers.

.”

Gao Jiu is tying his own interests to Rogers and his company.

Seeing Gao Jiu's confidence, Rogers was also tempted. He said: "Mr. Xiao, can you write me an analysis report on the international situation? I will take it back to the board of directors for discussion."

Gao Jiu said: "This is no problem. I will leave Wuhan in a few days. Before I leave, I will give you this report."

Rogers said: "Integrated Volti Company does not belong to me alone. I will try my best to convince other members of the board of directors. However, I hope you can accept my invitation and come to the United States to personally convince the members of the board of directors."

Gao Jiu still had no way of knowing whether he had time. He thought for a while and said: "As for this, please discuss it within your company first and then send me a telegram. If necessary, I will take time to go to the United States.

However, I will bring a few people with me when I go, and you will be responsible for arranging all relevant passport and other procedures."

Rogers said confidently: "There is no problem with this. Our company can bear all the procedures, including all your expenses in the United States."

Gao Jiu said: "That's it. I have other things to deal with these days, so I don't have time to talk to you for a long time."

Rogers said: "Okay! After you leave, I will fly back to the United States with the report you provided and let the board of directors make a decision as soon as possible."

After returning to Gao Jiu's room, Lin Yanni asked curiously: "Brother Jiu, do you really want to go back to the United States? I haven't been there yet, can you take me with you?"

Gao Jiu immediately said: "I'm afraid this won't work. I believe what Rogers handled for me was related to business travel. You are a soldier, so I'm afraid this is inconvenient."

In fact, he planned to arrange for Xiao Yatong to go to the United States to manage his business in the United States. After settling in the United States, he would take Xiao Yuanshan over. They would be in danger at any time while living in the enemy-occupied area. Moreover, the Xiao family father and daughter

They are all excellent businessmen. With them helping Gao Jiu run the industry, he will naturally get twice the result with half the effort. Xiao Yatong is also a young woman after all, and Gao Jiu does not want unnecessary misunderstandings between her and Lin Yanni.

Lin Yanni was very smart and a person who had seen the world. She didn't believe a word Gao Jiu said. The so-called procedures for going abroad that Gao Jiu said was just an excuse. Based on Lin Yanni's family background, she had to go through the procedures to go to the United States.

, that was also a piece of cake. She felt that there must be other reasons why Gao Jiu did not let her go.

Lin Yanni is a woman with a high emotional intelligence, and she did not force herself to do anything. She just curled her lips and said nothing.

Gao Jiu saw Lin Yanni's expression and smiled inwardly. To be honest, he really liked Lin Yanni's intelligence. Seeing that she was still pouting, Gao Jiu decided to make it up to her. He said: "Sister, let's go out

Go shopping, everything tonight will be at your discretion."

Lin Yanni said happily: "That's great! You accompany me to buy clothes first, and then we go to Xiaoxiang Tower for dinner. The Hunan cuisine there is very good. Then we go to the movies and dance at the Yellow Crane Tower Ballroom."

Gao Jiu smiled and said, "I'll listen to you."

Lin Yanni said: "Okay, I'll go back and change clothes, and we'll leave right away."

Gao Jiu knew that it would take a long time for the eldest lady to go out and change clothes. Her "right away" would probably take many "right away" times, all added up. He smiled and said: "Okay, I'll wait.

You. I'll go to Stationmaster Zhou first, just call me before I leave."

The next morning, Wang Xilin came to the hotel. After seeing Gao Jiu, he said: "Mr. Xiao, you are right, what happened is indeed like this. I will pick you up tomorrow morning."

Gao Jiu shook his head and said: "No need, I will arrive at the designated location on time. You can have someone send me an ordinary truck with a local license plate."

Wang Xilin immediately went to make arrangements.

Gao Jiu came to Lin Yanni's room and said to her: "Sister! I have to go on a mission these two days. You go home and stay for two days."

Lin Yanni didn't want to go home. She knew that if she went home, her mother Huang Peishan would definitely bombard her. She didn't want to hear those words at all. She would rather wait for Gao Jiu in the restaurant.

Gao Jiu didn't want Lin Yanni to be in danger, and told her that even if she didn't want to go home, she couldn't leave the hotel. Lin Yanni was an informed woman, and she knew Gao Jiu was caring about her, so she agreed.

This morning, Gao Jiu specifically did not let Jia Liu and others learn to drive. He wanted to take them to survey the scene in advance.

Wang Xilin sent someone to deliver a van to Gao Jiu. Gao Jiu, Zhou Mingshan, Jia Liu and others, with Zhou Mingshan driving the van, left the hotel and drove towards the east gate of Wuhan City.

On the way, Gao Jiu asked: "What have you learned these days?"

Jia Liu was the first to say: "Jiuye, Juntong really has all kinds of vehicles there, including motorcycles, various types of trucks, cars, and even tanks. I can drive them now."

Ning Wen, Ning Wu and Li Xiaoshan were not to be outdone, and they all said that they had learned a lot of driving skills.

Jia Liu said: "I learned the fastest. The instructor praised me several times, and especially praised my motorcycle driving skills."

Ning Wu said unconvinced: "What's the point? Master Jiu taught you how to ride a motorcycle before, but I can drive a tank better than you."

Several young people talked about their experiences in the process of learning to drive, and all of them were very excited.

Jia Liu asked: "Master Jiu, when are we going back to Peach Blossom Mountain?"

After this trip, he not only saw the world, but also learned to drive various vehicles. After he returned, he could brag and show off to his friends.

Ning Wen was the most stable among them, and he did not express any opinions as usual. Ning Wu and Li Xiaoshan both liked the life in this city and did not want to return to Peach Blossom Mountain so soon. Li Xiaoshan said: "Master Jiu, I still want to

Let’s watch another movie.”

Although Gao Jiu is young, he is a time traveler after all, and his mentality is much more mature. Looking at these simple and unsophisticated young people, he really can't bear to take them to the battlefield to fight with the enemy.

The reality is so cruel. Tomorrow, they will face a cruel battle.

At 8:30 a.m. the next day, a black prison van drove out of the Wuhan No. 1 Prison in the east of Wuhan. In front of the prison van was a motorcycle clearing the way, with three heavily armed Nationalist soldiers on it.

Behind the prison van was a black car with a military license plate.
