Alchemy Greater China

As long as you keep an eye on the queen fish, the oil-collecting guard fish will not go missing, and the seabed oil they absorb will also become Long Hao's item.

"Is this the divine power bestowed by the Buddha? It's amazing!" Long Xiaohu tilted his head and stared at the water tank, "Master, are there queen fish and guardian fish in the water?"

"Yes, they are easy to distinguish, let me tell you!" Long Hao smiled, tapping the wall of the water tank with his finger bones.

The oily fish is about the same size as the lukewarm fish, with a pitch black body, bifurcated caudal fins, and sharp teeth. It looks like a ferocious carnivorous fish.The queen fish is slightly larger in size, with dark red patterns on the head and three branches at the caudal fin, while the guardian fish is smaller in size and has a flexible body, gray dark lines on the head, and only two branches in the caudal fin. ..

In the tank, a queen fish is leisurely wandering in the middle, while the other four or five guard fish are baring their teeth, flicking their tail fins desperately, rampaging, bumping into the tank wall from time to time, making a faint "thumping" sound.

Long Xiaohu praised: "These guardian fish are strong enough, even if they are put into the sea, they won't be eaten by other fishes!"

"Of course!"

The oily fish is designed by Long Hao according to the fish template used by major American energy companies to collect deep-sea crude oil in the future. Its vitality is extremely strong: "If more than a hundred oily fish gather, even the sharks will have to give way!"

After introducing the oily fish, Long Xiaohu was full of excitement, and was about to collect the fish fry and bring them back to be raised by experienced fishermen, but Long Hao stopped him: "Uncle Hu, don't rush away, there is another fish fry that hasn't been given yet." what do you say!"..

and also?

Long Xiaohu couldn't help being taken aback, thinking about it, the miraculous species bestowed by the Buddha, such as oily fish and warm fish, should appear after a long time... Could it be that today the young master is especially favored by the Buddha, and he was gifted with many kinds of fish fry? ?

"This kind of fish, I call it steel steel fish!"

Long Hao did not move out of the glass water tank this time.Instead, he took out a flowerpot-like thing and placed it on the table, which was filled with black soil, and a loach-like thing happily burrowed up and down in the soil.

This 'loach' is slightly smaller than the average loach, but look carefully.But there are double gills on both sides of the head, and near the tail, there are also two pointed claws, which are very convenient for digging up the soil!

Isn't this a weird loach, how does it look like a fish?Long Xiaohu suppressed his doubts, and asked, "Ganggang fish? Master, what is it used for?"

Long Hao smiled, took out a fist-sized gold nugget, and threw it into the flower pot: "It. It likes to eat metal the most! When a steel fish was born, what kind of metal was fed to it for the first time, so next, it I will only stare at this metal and devour it for the rest of my life!"

"Ah, this steel fish, could it be that it eats gold?"

"Hehe, smart!"

During the conversation, the steel fish in the flowerpot had already emerged from the soil.It seemed to be able to smell the alluring smell of gold, and turned around.He jumped on the gold nugget.

The steel steel fish shook its small head, hitting the gold nugget one after another, the gills on both sides opened and closed, every time it moved, it seemed that part of the yellow stuff was swallowed by the gills!

After a few breaths, the gold nugget shrunk to a size that was visible to the naked eye!

Long Xiaohu's eyes widened.Exclaimed: "It's eating gold nuggets! It can eat gold, oh, it can really eat gold!!"

The gold nugget the size of a fist, like cheese, was devoured by this steel fish.After eating, the steel steel fish shook its body, as if belching in satisfaction, then dug a small hole in the soil with its claws, got into it and stopped moving.

"It devours the gold, and it will enter a dormant state!"

Long Hao twirled his two fingers, and pulled the steel fish out of the cave by its tail. Sure enough, the fish was really motionless, with its gills closed, as if asleep.

"Master, can the gold it eats be spit out?" Long Xiaohu asked.If the metal eaten by steel fish cannot be extracted, then this kind of fry is simply the natural enemy of all mine owners!

Just like the locusts are to the farmer uncle!

"Part of the gold eaten by the steel fish is used for its own growth, and the other part will be excreted!" Long Hao explained with a smile, "But if it eats extremely high-purity gold, it will be a waste to wait for it to excrete. !"

Long Hao took out a dagger, inserted it into the gills of the steel fish, and with a stroke along its body, the internal organs of the steel fish were cut open, and there was a long golden liquid inside, which seemed to be viscous. The xing is quite strong, and it must be shaken vigorously to drip out drop by drop.

After a lot of effort, Long Hao poured the golden liquid into a bowl, and compared the volume, it was exactly the size of a fist.

"I see!"

Long Xiaohu was amazed, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind: "Master, is this steel fish as easy to recycle as oily fish? If so, then..."

Speaking of this, Long Xiaohu's breathing suddenly became rapid.

Long Hao nodded with a smile, and continued: "Then, all the metal minerals in the world will be returned to Huaxia Town for free! Haha, yes, steel steel fish are also divided into two types: 'Queen' and 'Guardian'. The one just now is The guard fish among steel fish!"

It can swallow metal, is small in size, and can be easily 'recycled' and dissected at will. This is simply a pervasive 'mineral thief'!

Raise tens of thousands of steel fish and secretly bury them in someone else's mining area, and the metal ore inside can be recovered without any effort!

Such a good thing, just thinking about it makes people excited!

"This is good, this is good...Ganggang fish is more suitable for our Huaxia Town than Youyouyu!" Long Xiaohu's eyes glowed, and he kept muttering, looking at the corpse of the steel and steel fish, it was like looking at a cornucopia Same.

"Hehe, it seems that Uncle Tiger has understood what I mean!"

Long Hao pointed at the golden liquid in the bowl, with the corners of his mouth upturned: "Greatly raise steel fish! I want those businessmen who have contracted the mining area to only build infrastructure for us in Alaska, but they can't dig enough gold mines!"

This was planned by Long Hao before the auction of the 'Mineral Contracting Rights': first use the 'contracting rights' to extract part of the cash, introduce the personnel and funds of the major chaebols into Alaska, and build railways, factories, seaports and other foundations for Alaska facilities, and finally use steel steel fish to steal the gold mine under their feet without anyone noticing!

If this plan is successful, it means that the big chaebols will build Alaska for Long Hao for free, working hard but not getting any wages.

Long Xiaohu took away the samples of oily fish and steel fish as if he had found a treasure.Confidentially, without Long Hao saying much, these two magical species will surely become the top secret of Huaxia Town!

According to Long Hao's conception, the first test site of oily fish is located in the "Beaufort Sea" in northern Canada, because there are abundant oil resources there, and there are relatively few international fleets cruising.

The first test site of Ganggangyu is simple.Isn't Schmidt leading those shareholder field trips now?Ganggang fish just follow their asses and put them in the newly built mine!

In addition to the newly invented oily fish and steel fish, during the retreat, Long Hao also conducted in-depth research on the species gene of the Nightmare Horse. Today's Nightmare Horse is good or bad, but it is still far away from the invincible ace cavalry in his mind. A certain distance, such as size, endurance, speed, as well as defense, cold resistance, drought resistance and so on.

But before Long Hao took time to go to the small valley where the Nightmare horses were raised to do some practical work, a telegram from San Francisco was placed on his desk.

"Hey. Carnegie's movements are fast, and he has moved to San Francisco..."

Long Hao closed the telegram with a smile on his lips: the telegram said that Carnegie and his team had arrived in San Francisco, and with the assistance of the old Mayor Stevenson, they were looking for a site to build a factory in the suburbs of San Francisco.

Carnegie had pretty much sold off his Pittsburgh real estate and, taking advantage of the recent buzz about Alaska, made a small fortune in the stock market.At this moment, the funds in his pocket are quite abundant.

"San Francisco... is actually not such a safe place!" Long Hao thought for a while.After considering a telegram, Long Bo sent back to the past in an encrypted way.

If he hadn't decided to go to the UK, Long Hao would still have a lot of work to do in San Francisco and Baja California, but since Queen Victoria's invitation could not be delayed, so after weighing the pros and cons, Long Hao and Melissa would still be on September [-]th.Left Huaxia Town.

In the group, apart from the two protagonists, there are also two bodyguards carefully equipped by Long Bo.

There are two bodyguards, one male and one female, the male is named Breeze, and the female is Xiaoyu.They are not very old, two years younger than Long Hao, and only twelve years old this year!

But these two doll bodyguards are really good-looking. The male is auspicious and the female is wishful, just like the New Year picture dolls pasted on the gate of the New Year. Xiaoyu pinched her little cheeks a few times, full of praise for their skin and appearance.

But Long Hao knew that although Breeze and Drizzle was harmless to humans and animals and cute, they were outstanding seedlings selected by Uncle Long from thousands of children in Huaxia Town. Long Hao is absolutely loyal, and his skills are no worse than Abin and others!

Long Hao had read the materials of Breeze and Rain. Both of them were from a family of martial arts. Their parents died early. After being taken to Huaxia Town, they practiced 15 sets of radio sports. He was favored by Uncle Long and taught him the unique skill.

On September 22, Long Hao returned to Seattle.

On September 27th, Long Hao got off the train in Detroit, Michigan. Melissa was a little tired from the non-stop journey for more than ten days, so she happened to rest and relax in this future car city.

To arrive in London before October [-]th, they had to board the cruise ship from New York to England on October [-]th. The reason why Long Hao and his party rushed so much was to allow enough time.

But now that we arrived in Detroit, Long Hao calculated that there was absolutely enough time, so he agreed, "Well, let's rest in Detroit for one night, and tomorrow we will take the train to New York."

"Long live the young master!"

Breeze and Drizzle couldn't help shouting at first, although these two are bodyguards by profession, they are still children at heart after all. From the backward Qing Dynasty and the closed Alaska, they came to the vibrant United States all at once, and they took a boat again. It's another ride, and the two pairs of eyes are long enough to see along the way. Now that the young master has allowed him to stay in the city, how can he not cheer for joy?

Melissa smiled and said, "It's been two years since I came to the United States, but I have been staying in the west all the time. I really haven't experienced the real appearance of American cities..."

Long Hao nodded. Melissa was telling the truth. Although the total amount of steel in the United States has surpassed that of Germany and Britain, the real place of prosperity is still in the eastern part of the Atlantic River.Seattle, Portland, San Francisco.To be honest, in the eyes of people in the eastern part of the United States, it is still an inconspicuous 'country place'.

"Okay, let's go shopping and buy some small gifts for Breeze and Xiaoyu!" Long Hao said with a smile, he gave Breeze and Xiaoyu a physical test.He was surprised to find that these two little dolls had the potential to become 'alchemists'. While he was secretly grateful to Long Bo, he also paid special attention to them.

"real?!"

"Great!"

The breeze, the drizzle, and the little stars twinkling in the four eyes.

It has to be said that Detroit, which was founded in 1815, already had the prototype of an industrial city, with numerous factories, dense crowds, and a strong commercial atmosphere. Long Hao found a bustling commercial street and bought a few Western gadgets. Send it to the breeze and drizzle.Let this pair of golden boy and jade girl fall in love with each other from ear to ear.

Melissa didn't need Long Hao to give gifts. This royal princess had a very high vision. She walked on catwalks and walked all the way. She was not very satisfied with the things in the store.It's no wonder that Detroit is an industrial city, and luxury and beautiful products are indeed rare.

A modern asphalt road.Long Hao and his party are very eye-catching, first of all.The leading man was a young man with yellow skin and delicate features. The most important thing was that he didn't have an ugly pigtail on his head, making most passers-by think that he was Toyori himself.Secondly, the man's female companion is beautiful and beautiful, she is a Western beauty with noble temperament and hot body.This combination is obviously not harmonious.What is even more surprising is that this Western beauty seems to still focus on this Eastern young man, following his every word and deed, and they are like a sweet couple!

And that's not all, behind this not so 'fit' couple.There are also two children with yellow skin and big eyes, jumping and jumping, looking at everything very fresh, they look neither like attendants nor relatives, and they are full of weirdness.

Fortunately, most of the people living in Detroit are workers, and they walk in a hurry. Although they frequently pay attention to Long Hao and his party, no one has taken the initiative to strike up a conversation until now.

In the United States in the early stages of industrialization and capitalism in the rising period, every bit of time is extremely precious, unless it hurts to be idle, few people meddle in their own business!

But very little does not mean no, just when Melissa came out of a dress shop with a disappointed expression on her face, an extremely fast figure flashed past her. Melissa was turning her head to talk to Long Hao, and when she was inattentive, she was caught by this The figure is straightened!

"Oops, my handbag!"

Melissa exclaimed, the bag she was carrying was snatched by the figure: "Help! That's a thief, catch the thief! Catch him!"

This handbag has a unique style, generous yet trendy. It was designed and hand-sewn by Melissa according to the "future fashion" pointed out by Long Hao. Yes, Melissa is really distressed.

No way, who made this 'advanced fashion' handbag really eye-catching, with golden and fine gemstones on the outside, it would be unreasonable not to attract thieves.

After the thief succeeded, like a slippery loach, he crossed the road in a few steps and got into the crowd on the opposite street. At this time, it was at the peak of the crowd, and there were still carriages and trams driving awkwardly on the street. Almost instantly, the thief About to disappear without a trace.

The eyewitnesses next to me saw it, their eyes were numb, and they didn't intend to help at all. They all sighed secretly: Poor beauty, it seems that this is the first time in Detroit, don't you know that the law and order here is notoriously chaotic in the whole country?

However, when an ordinary robbery case that happened every day was about to succeed in such a grandiose way, two afterimages suddenly flew out from the eyes of the numb witnesses, like pigeons in the air, rushing away from the unfortunate beauty who was robbed like lightning. towards the opposite side of the road.

Sharp-eyed witnesses will be shocked to find that the two afterimages are actually those two harmless children!

The gears of the city were still rotating in an orderly manner, but the street opposite Melissa was like a stone being thrown into a calm lake, causing a sudden commotion.

Pedestrians moved away in a panic. A small dark-skinned man was lying on the ground miserably, screaming in pain. Beside him, a boy stepped on his palm, and a girl lifted his hand. A new style irl!Are you Ri himself? "

"It's amazing, a hero comes out of a boy!"

Who says Americans don't like to watch the show?Seeing a thief being knocked to the ground by two children, many passers-by stopped, showed surprise, praised or clapped...

"Breeze and rain, you guys are too showy!"

Long Hao smiled wryly, and managed to pull the breeze and rain out from the crowd of onlookers. Of course, he did not forget to clarify that he is an authentic Chinese, not an oriental dwarf who likes to wear a snot beard.

"Don't scold them, they helped me catch the thief and get my bag back!"

Melissa was smiling all over her face, comforting the reprimanded Breeze and Rain, affirming their brave actions.

"I'm not scolding them, I just attracted the police!"

Long Hao didn't refute forcefully, at the moment he was doting on Melissa, and he spoke softly in everything.

Facts have proved that Long Hao is worrying too much.

Detroit's police deployment was very sluggish. Three or ten minutes had passed in this episode, and no policeman appeared. Instead, Melissa took the opportunity to complain: "Hmph, if I knew it, I shouldn't have done it so easily." Let that thief go!"

But what Melissa and Long Hao didn't know was that when they turned the corner, the black thief with red and swollen palms who had survived the accident hid in the corner and muttered something to a big white man, A pair of resentful eyes stared at the direction where Long Hao and the others disappeared.
