[173] Alaska, January 1892(1/2)

Now in Austria-Hungary, there is no legend of Zheng Gongxiao, there is only the bronze mask Sir Baron Koshaw!

There was water on the train. At this point in the story, Zheng Gongxiao's tongue couldn't help but feel thirsty, so he poured a glass and drank it, leaving some time for Long Hao to reflect and be surprised.

Long Hao was indeed surprised, because what Zheng Gongxiao said was completely different from the script he had guessed before!

That day in London, after Long Hao heard Schellingmere talking about Sir Bronze Mask for the first time, he connected the clues and immediately guessed that this mysterious Baron Keshaw was most likely the missing Zheng Gongxiao. And in

After hearing the story of his brave rescue of the Austro-Hungarian princess, Long Hao was even more convinced that Mr. Zheng

Xiao Pang fell into the big tree of Princess Sissi, so he was able to live like a fish in water in the Austro-Hungarian Empire and developed the SS regiment extremely strong. Otherwise, how could Zheng Gongxiao not hesitate to take the SS after receiving the secret message from Long Hao?

There were more than fifty members in black clothes and black trousers, strutting all the way to Switzerland without any hindrance?

But now that I hear it, it’s not the case at all!...

Not only did Zheng Gongxiao not get close to the big tree named "Princess Sissi", but he completely offended the other party. Now looking back, the reason why Zheng Gongxiao lived like a fish in water was that he could even provide Long Hao with the best service in Europe.

Could it be that the most advanced, cheapest, and most taboo weapon was inspired by that Miss Karanka?

Long Hao also grabbed a glass of water, poured it into his mouth, and then asked: "Old Zheng, so you are following that Miss Karanka?"

"What's wrong with never obeying? If she doesn't listen to me, huh..."

Zheng Gongxiao turned his nose, and his dull face showed a rare domineering look: "The relationship between me and her is difficult to explain for a while... In short, young master, you understand, what I mean is what Karanka means!"

So awesome?

Long Hao immediately looked at Zheng Gongxiao with admiration. He never expected that Mahjong Face was a super male chauvinist. At the end of the late Qing Dynasty, going abroad and conquering foreign girls was truly the pride of the Chinese people!

"Miss Karanka, what does your family do?"

Long Hao was very curious, because Zheng Gongxiao's report made his original plan a little confusing. He originally thought that he could go to the Austro-Hungarian Empire to discuss cooperation with Princess Sissi, but now the partner of the cooperation suddenly changed. Even

We also need to consider whether Princess Sissi will stumble and stab herself because of Zheng Gongxiao.

"this……"

Zheng Gongxiao frowned slightly, his cheeks flashed red, and he was a little embarrassed to say: "Young Master, I actually don't know what her family does."

As the top general in Long Hao's intelligence network, he still hasn't figured out the identity of the other party's important figures after several months. This makes Zheng Gongxiao very embarrassed, especially since the 'other party' still basically listens to him in everything.

Little woman!

After receiving this answer, Long Hao was a little speechless: "Ahem...then let me ask you, Lao Zheng, where did you get your arms channels? You couldn't have contacted them yourself, right?"

Long Hao never believed that Zheng Gongxiao, who came to Europe alone and originally planned to just explore the road, could contact the 'charitable arms dealer' who sold the Maxim machine for cabbage price!

"This... channel was given by Karanka. She opened an arms company in Vienna, and I bought all the weapons for the regiment from her!"

Zheng Gongxiao looked sincere: "But, I haven't found out what she does at home. Although she is very obedient to me, she always becomes very tight-lipped when it comes to this!"

"Oh...Old Zheng, how can I say hello to you!"

Long Hao was a little angry and twisted his nose. This mahjong face actually played word games with me. I asked Karanka what his family did. Didn't he just want to find out what kind of help Karanka provided to you:

"Okay, it's not that far from Vienna anyway. When we get there, I'll meet your Miss Karanka in person."

"I feel relieved when the young master takes action. Although she is very liberal with me, I always feel that she is still disguised and not considerate enough!"

There was a trace of contradiction between Zheng Gongxiao's eyebrows. With his shrewdness, how could Karanka's usual anomalies be hidden from him? It's just that when he reached middle age and tasted love for the first time, he was always interested in this gentle and mysterious Karanka.

He can't bear to do anything serious! Otherwise, with his torture skills no less than Wang Botao's, will he not be able to find out the true details of Karanka?

In the final analysis, love...especially first love can always easily obscure people's wisdom!

"Old Zheng, I want to give you a piece of advice. No matter how sincere Karanka is to you, you must always remember that your roots... are in Huaxia Town!" Long Hao said sincerely.

To be honest, Zheng Gongxiao has been living alone for so long, and the SS group under him has grown so strong that Long Hao is really worried that he will set up his own business.

"Master, you underestimate me, Mr. Zheng!"

Zheng Gongxiao's face was serious and he said seriously: "Since the young master rescued us from the desperate situation in the deep sea and showed us the way forward in the future, my whole life, Old Zheng, has belonged to the Dragon Scale Party! The reason why I have stayed in Austria-Hungary is,

It’s really because this opportunity is rare. Karanka’s connections and the power behind her are extremely huge. With her help, we will save ten times and a hundred times the effort in building an intelligence network!”

"It's good to take advantage of the situation, but the intelligence network must be 100% in the hands of one's own people!" Long Hao said seriously, "Forget it, I'll wait until I meet Miss Karanka before I make a decision!"

It can be seen that Zheng Gongxiao currently still has a lot of trust in Karanka, and Long Hao does not want to say more, lest it affect his relationship with Zheng Gongxiao.

Putting this matter aside for now, Long Hao turned the topic elsewhere: "Old Zheng, do you have any extra pistols on you? It's best to be a high-end product that hasn't been released on the market yet!"

It is the same in every era. What arms dealers sell to the outside world are always 'outdated' products, and the weapons embodying the most advanced technology are all packed goods in their own warehouses. Since Karanka runs an arms company, then this

Zheng Gongxiao should have some of the advanced 'packaged goods'!

"have!"

Zheng Gongxiao immediately answered, touched his waist for a while, and took out a small and exquisite black pistol. On the handle of the gun, a dagger was clearly drawn, making it look like he had the urge to hold it and shoot several times!

"This is called the Mullah Star. I have tried it. It has fast reloading, high rate of fire, accurate accuracy, small recoil, and less bullet dust. Its performance is at least 60% higher than the best pistols on the market today!"

Zheng Gongxiao stroked the ‘Mula Star’ with a dagger painted on it, and it could be seen that he was reluctant to part with it. He was very, very satisfied with this pistol: “Master, what are you going to do with the pistol?”

Although he was reluctant to part with it, Zheng Gongxiao played with it for a while and handed the 'Mula Star' to Long Hao.

"Nice gun!"

Taking the Mula Star, it felt quite good. Long Hao inserted his index finger into the trigger ring and turned the pistol a few times. Then he smiled and said: "Of course I am doing something meaningful. Old Zheng, bring a few

A solid brother who can show off, let’s go sell arms, hahaha!”

Needless to say, the target of the promotion is naturally our Princess Gemma.

Looking at the dull-looking Zheng Gongxiao and the five expressionless strong men in black behind him, Gemma reluctantly showed a forced smile: "Sorry, I really don't need to buy any weapons for the time being! Earl

Sir, I appreciate your kindness!"

Long Hao was standing on the side of Zheng Gongxiao, with an attentive smile like a 'pimp' on his face. After listening to Gemma's words, he quickly said: "It doesn't matter if you don't buy it, just make a friend! This Sir Keshaw,

They have the safest, smoothest and most convenient arms channels in Europe. And with my introduction, every order over 100,000 pounds can get a 0.5% discount or receive a free gun.

Ra Star Pistol!”

Having said this, Long Hao took out the dark Mula Star and pressed it on Gemma's hand without any explanation: "Princess must know the goods, this pistol is twice as good as the most popular ones on the market!"

"

There was no way to verify it anyway, so Long Hao’s cowhide was blown high! Don’t be afraid if it breaks, because there’s still ‘Baron Coshaw’ carrying it!

"...It's a good gun!"

The Star of Mulla is indeed loved by everyone. Gemma played with it over and over for a while, and her beautiful eyes lit up a few times: "This is the Star of Mulla? Sir Kershaw, if you buy it alone, what is the price of one?"

"

Although there was no test launch, the Mulla Star still conquered Gemma. Not to mention anything else, its small and exquisite shape and murderous black appearance made the Egyptian princess unable to put it down.

"Not just selling."

Zheng Gongxiao's answer was dry, as if it was Long Hao who was eager to do business and had nothing to do with him: "Only for orders over 100,000 pounds, we will give away one."

"Haha, Sir Kershaw is a real person. If you say one, you will never say another! That's why you are my good friend. People are divided into groups, and birds of a feather flock together!"

Long Hao smiled and smoothed things over: "Since the princess is interested, we can talk about business. I will wait outside. You don't have to worry about my face. If you bargain, just cut it in half, and if you rip someone off, just use an ax to chop it. As long as

I have no opinion at all whether the business can be successful, hahaha..."

After Long Hao finished speaking, he actually left the room and thoughtfully closed the door tightly outside.

About an hour later, Zheng Gongxiao and five of his men walked out of the room. Long Hao rubbed his hands and greeted him, looking like a broker who was eager to get a commission. Gemma, who peeked through the crack in the door, had a look of contempt in her eyes.

.

Coming closer, Long Hao asked, "How?"

Zheng Gongxiao's lips moved slightly: "Young master's calculations have made a deal of 100,000 pounds!"

"Did she accept the Star of Mula?"

"I accepted it. I can see that she really likes it."

"It's weird if you don't like it! The starting price of this pistol on the black market is at least 5,000 pounds. I really don't know which arms group has this kind of technical reserve... Well, if I lose your gun, Karanka will not be disappointed.

Is it easy to explain?"

"Master, have you forgotten? I said, Karanka doesn't dare to go west when I point to the east. It's just a pistol. How dare she fart?"

"That's great! By the way, when will this transaction take place?"

"According to the young master's arrangement, we will send people to Egypt..."

"Very good! Remember, Egypt is also a target of our attention. Those who go there must be smarter and more tolerant!"

"I will arrange this, don't worry, young master!"

"Ah, one more thing. That Green Neal will stay in Basel for a while. When he gets the inheritance, you have someone take him to Vienna! Well... if I am not there by then, you can arrange for him

Go to Egypt too! Hum, the grudge between the Egyptian siblings should be resolved in Egypt..."

In Europe in January 1892, Long Hao and Zheng Gongxiao reunited in Basel, Switzerland. On the other half of the world, in Alaska, close to the Arctic Circle, a vigorous movement of mining shareholders to settle in mining areas was underway.

Those giants who had spent huge sums of money to buy the mineral contracting rights, after going through preliminary exploration, mid-term on-the-spot inspections, and final demarcation of mining areas, finally couldn't stand it anymore! They waved their flags. Real manpower was dispatched to attack the key points.

Enter Alaska, a state with a bright future, and dig out the first pot of gold for your investment as soon as possible!
