2 The beginning of friendship

If the PTR is the cornerstone of the defense industry in the United States today, it is actually an exaggeration.

Because the PTR is more akin to a forward-thinking weapons design center.

Without the support of the industrial system of the Ford plant, everything in the PTR would have remained on paper or Han Huaiyi's head that the world seems to have endless ghost ideas.

But not with the Krupp.

They were the cornerstone of the real defense industry of the German Reich.

Born in 1812, Alfred. After Krupp spent a lifetime developing his family industry to a certain point, his granddaughter is twenty-seven years old and unmarried Berta. Krupp took the ancestral industry to an even more glorious state.

But then came the troubles.

Because the Krupp family was so important, Kaiser Wilhelm II ordered Bertha to marry his diplomat Gustav in order to prevent such a great inheritance from falling into the hands of outsiders.

For this reason, the Kaiser even asked Gustav to change his surname to Krupp to show his importance and courtship of this family.

What woman doesn't fantasize about getting true love?

If you can't marry the one you love, what's the point of a long life?

Bertha resisted this inwardly, but she was still a subject of the Emperor, and in addition to the pressure of the German Emperor, careerists within the family were forcing her to agree.

Because only in this way can the family survive.

Of course, there is another kind of people who expect her to act rebelliously, so that the family power will be removed from her head.

All in all, with the exception of the deceased grandfather and a handful of henchmen, not many people really cared about the true happiness of this blonde, blue-eyed, talented and good-looking lady.

Distraught, it happened that the American side sent an invitation to the World Military Expo advocated by the PTR.

Berta was interested in the plane and led the team.

To say that the Germans are confident in their own industry.

So this time they only brought some artillery that came out a long time ago, and they didn't come up with any new products.

This should also be out of wariness of the rest of Europe, but even so, they have received orders of no less than $200,000 in the past few days.

is the biggest winner of this expo in addition to PTR.

However, the money was destined to be spent, and when Berta saw such a land weapon as tanks, she immediately asked the PTR to meet with their leader.

this day.

She saw Han Huaiyi again.

Unlike last time in public, this time they met in a café in the convention center.

In addition to Han Huaiyi, Tom, and Ford, there is only Bertha and her family confidant, her cousin Rodlin.

Berta is indeed a beauty.

Tall and good-looking, she is set off by the leadership temperament cultivated by her leadership family for many years, even Ford is shocked by her appearance, and her eyes will be a little evasive.

As for Tom, Tom feels like he's met the Empress.

It is said that Bertha does have the name of the Empress of Artillery, because under her leadership, Krupp's artillery sold well all over the world.

For example, in the later period, the coastal defense cannons of the entire Qing court were no longer antiques such as red-clothed generals, and they used weapons produced by Krupp.

Three men and two cowards, only Han Huaiyi, who was infatuated with Athena when he was a child, was very calm.

Because he slept throughout his childhood wearing a golden robe made of paper and holding Athena's card, those who have been close to God can naturally face the bewitchment of the world calmly.

Berta asked one question after another, and while Ford was answering them one by one, the thing actually tossed the siphon coffee pot on the side.

Berta had seen countless men's tricks, including the kind of pretending distance to try to get her attention.

At first, she thought that Han Huaiyi was also this kind of scum.

Who knew she was wrong.

Han Huaiyi's research is serious, this special tank is just such a thing, it is enough for Ford to say, he is too lazy to bother.

After a while, he began to add coffee to the two ladies, and asked the baby-faced Rodelin, "The German pig's trotters and smokehouses are delicious, how about I exchange a tank with you for a few wagons of delicious food." ”

Berta was stunned, and Rodrin, who was busy recording, also collapsed.

And Ford didn't know that the tendon was wrong, and said like a goose: "Do you want to write this into the clause, Charlie?" ”

Tom couldn't help but laugh.

The Belta sisters laughed too.

At this moment, the original business meeting on the scene has changed its taste.

Han Huaiyi, who caused trouble, actually had the face to say: "I won't write this, if it gets out, others will think that we are all foodies in New Rome, how can we walk cheekily between black and white in the future." ”

The crowd was in an uproar.

At this time, Berta suddenly said: "I have heard of Charlie's inattention, how old are you this year?" ”

Her Majesty tilted her head, revealing a rare girlish look.

When the royal sister turned into Lori, basically all men couldn't bear it, and Han Huaiyi was an exception, he knocked on the table: "Respect your negotiation partner, Your Excellency, I am a serious person." ”

"What a brilliant little fellow." Berta joked, not taking his threats seriously.

Han Huaiyi raised his hand in surrender: "Miss Berta, let's get down to business." ”

"If you can give us a discount, I can treat you to dinner."

"The wool is out of the sheep and I want to thank you, you are stupid for me?"

"Seventy-fifty off, I'll buy a hundred tanks."

"It's impossible, the minimum is nine percent off, or for the sake of Miss Rodlin's beauty."

"Her beauty should be worth a lot of money."

"No, she's a nine-point beauty, if you look like you, that's ten points, or don't discount it." Han Huaiyi is quite reasonable.

Stera and Rodlin, the usual serious "CEOs of arms", are amused by him, and Ford and Tom are also overjoyed, discovering that Charlie treats anyone he meets differently.

Then he can easily close the distance with the other party.

Like now.

The two sides have been going back and forth for a few rounds, just like the two sea kings of the later generations meet together, and they will meet the good talents.

Eventually, Bertha said, "Okay, 20% off." In the evening you invited us to dinner. ”

"No problem." When Han Huaiyi said this, he looked at Berta: "You have some eye bags, it is a lack of sleep, you can use some cucumber slices to stick on them before falling asleep." It's good for you. ”

Everybody was all over again ...

Han Huaiyi continued: "My wife is raised like this, so she is as beautiful as a flower, but she can't attend because she is pregnant and waiting to give birth, otherwise I can invite you to taste her craftsmanship." ”

Of course, Berta: They knew he was married.

But such a man with great power will take the initiative to say that he is married when facing a beautiful woman of the same rank, and he is full of pride when mentioning his wife, which makes any woman feel good.
