"Teacher!"
Chen Ping and Du Dazhuang, who followed closely behind him, looked at each other in a face. This guy with curly hair and dressed like a lot of money is the great and magical foreign teacher of the young master?!
Almost in an instant, the imaginary great figure in their minds suddenly collapsed! Liar? Teacher! There are too many differences!
When the two were in a daze, Slo was also stunned by the teenager who suddenly appeared in front of him. After all, it has been several years. It is very simple for the child to recognize the child as an adult, but it takes some time to recall if the adult wants someone to recognize the child. Fortunately, Li Mo called the teacher, and he gradually connected the face in front of him with the child who had been sucking his nose and lying on the sickbed for several years, and his face became extremely frightened!
"You are..., Ni... Mo?"
It won't be wrong!
Only this guy will read Li Mo as Nemo, and it will be three years, this bastard! The young master is not the clown fish in Finding Nemo! He cheated the young master's gold and dared to swagger in and out of high-level places. More importantly, this guy is dressed more decently than the young master at this moment!
Do it!
Li Mo breathed a sigh of relief. The resentment in his heart really made him feel too uncomfortable. Looking at Slo, who looked nervous and his eyes were confused, he immediately put his arms around his shoulder and smiled, "Mr. Sloe, I've been looking for you for a long time!"
"Looking for me?!" Slo swallowed his saliva.
"Oh, dear Nemo, you know, you are my best student. Unfortunately, I received a letter that day. My grandfather was critically ill, so I had to say goodbye suddenly!" Sloe hurriedly laughed and continued, "But I didn't expect to meet you in the UK. I'm so happy. Unfortunately, I still have something to do now. See you next time."
"See you next time?" Li Mo narrowed his eyes and scratched a joke. He looked at Slo's side. He was staring at McKinson, who was at a loss of the three people. He said, "I don't know if there is any misunderstanding between the teacher and this gentleman. Can the students help you?"
"Misunderstanding? No, there is no misunderstanding. We just have a small problem to solve!" Sloe was even more nervous, which made Li Mo a little puzzled. It was just that he cheated some money. Do he need to be so nervous?
Li Mo didn't know that in fact, Slo did not escape immediately after cheating on gold, but quietly hid, waiting for the limelight to escape. Unexpectedly, the news of Li Guotai hanging himself soon came.
Originally, with Li Guotai's death, it should have been said that he was fine, but this guy was fascinated and thought that Li Guotai must be more than this gold, so he gritted his teeth and decided to sneak back to get another ticket. But he didn't expect that he was nervous and dark. Instead of finding the vault, he installed several officers and soldiers. Those officers and soldiers thought he was Li Guotai. The same party immediately fired on both sides.
Slow thought that the soldiers were all Li Guotai's men who came to avenge him, so he was so panicked that he fled back to Spain overnight. With the passage of time, he came out again and began to live a life of fraud. But I didn't expect to meet Li Mo in England, and I would be so scared.
"Small problem! Sloe, you bastard, you made me owe 6,000 pounds, and you even said it was a small matter!" The glasses man McKinson began to hear Li Mo call Mr. Slo. He thought they were in the group, especially when he saw the tall Du Dazhuang, who was already shaking his feet and ready to run away.
But I thought that Slo was as slippery as a loach. I don't know how long it would take to see him next time, so I gritted my teeth and insisted on standing on the side. Unexpectedly, things suddenly turned 180 degrees. When Slo saw him as a student, he actually looked panicked. He suddenly had the confidence and told the truth.
Grandma! ! Six thousand pounds! This guy's appetite is getting bigger and bigger. He thought that he robbed Rudolph's ship and sold it for 5,000 yuan in the end.
"Dear Mr. Slo, I think we should find a place to talk about it!" Slo's nervousness made Li Mo more and more curious, so he gave Du Dazhuang a look.
Du Dazhuang's level of observation has obviously increased. Although the young master's foreign teacher has been passed down by everyone, since the young master has made a look, even the king of heaven did not discuss it. He hugged Slo in his left hand, held the black star in his right hand against Slo's waist, and said in awkward English. He said, "Please!"
Du Dazhuang has been training with Li Qiang in Hawaii for the past six months, which has long been extraordinary. In this hug, Slo seemed to be hugged by a brown bear, and his whole body could not move. But when he wanted to shout, hoping to shock the people around him to get out, he saw that a pistol he had never seen had been staring at his waist, and he suddenly fainted in front of him.
"Mr. McKinson, do you mind if the teacher and I go to your place for a while."
Seeing Du Dazhuang take out his gun, McKinson was so scared that he turned around and ran away, but Chen Ping next to him hugged his shoulder early. In the eyes of outsiders, he thought that these people were old friends he had not seen for many years.

Through a few alleys, several people finally came to McKinson's temporary residence, a small hotel with only a few rooms. Judging from the rusty aisles, narrow rooms and musty furniture, Mr. McKinson lived a miserable life.
As several people poured into the room, the room was suddenly crowded. After Du Dazhuang lit the kerosene lamp, Li Mo had time to see the interior furnishings clearly. Except for a bed, a desk and a chair, there is no other furniture in the room, but strangely, ** and the table are covered with paper tubes. It seems that Mr. McKinson is still very hard-worked.
Li Mo opened a drawing casually and was immediately stunned. Although it was only a certain part, the gun that jumped out of the drawing could still make people easily see that it was a warship.
Is this guy a warship designer?! But how can a designer live in such a place?
Thinking of this, Li Mo quickly put down the drawings and was ready to ask the fainting Sloe first, but before he asked Da Zhuang to wake him up, Slo suddenly opened his eyes. It turned out that this guy woke up early, but he was afraid that Du Dazhuang would kill him, so he didn't dare to open his eyes.
"Dear Mr. Slo, I don't know if you have anything to say to me?" Li Mo raised the corners of his mouth, revealing eight white teeth.
"No, Nemo, please believe me, I didn't kill anyone, really not!" Nervously, Slo waved his hand in horror.
"Killing? Did this guy kill someone? Li Mo was confused. In order to find out the truth of the matter, he immediately took out his pistol, patted the table fiercely, and said fiercely, "Tay it quickly."
Seeing the pistol, Slo thought that Li Mo was here to take revenge, otherwise who would go out with a gun! He hurriedly poured beans into the bamboo tube, quickly said all the previous things, and repeatedly said that he was really unintentional.
"So that's what happened. No wonder they all say, "Don't do something wrong and don't be afraid of knocking on the door at night." Slo obviously scared himself, but it's good, so that he doesn't have to use his brain to scare him." While smiling secretly, Master Li deliberately put on his face, pretended to be fierce, and waved his pistol and shouted, "You know what? I can't wait to kill you!"
"No, God! Dear Nemo, for the sake of being your teacher for three years, forgive me!" As soon as he saw the swaying pistol, Slo's face turned whiter. He knelt down and hugged Li Mo's thigh and begged for mercy.
"Forgive you, but the gold must be returned to me immediately!" Li Mo spread out his big hand and looked like he was going to die if he didn't give gold.
"I don't have money." When he heard the money, Slo trembled even more. This guy ate, drank and gambled on everything. Not to mention gold, it was impossible for him to take out 20 pounds at this moment.
Seeing Slo's appearance, Li Mo felt more funny, but in order to get rid of McKinson's identity, he still deliberately pointed to McKinson, who was hiding next to him and was also shaking, and said, "Who is he? What does it have to do with you?
"His name is McKinson, and he is a boat owner." In order to get Li Mo's forgiveness, Slo quickly told his feud with McKinson. It turned out that McKinson was not an Englishman, but a ship designer from the Austro-Hungarian Empire, especially obsessed with warship design, and was concentive on designing the most powerful battleships.
Unfortunately, when the design was rejected by the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Italian Navy and laughed at him for being a madman, this guy planned to come to England to try his luck. Unexpectedly, when he sold his family property and came here with 3,000 pounds, he met the big liar Sloe!
When he heard that this guy was all about getting a chance to build a warship, Slo lied to him, saying that his uncle was a naval officer who could refer him to McKinson to the Armstrong Shipyard, and even take him to the new Secretary of the Navy, Sir Fisher.
McKinson didn't expect that this was Slo's trick, and thought he had met a nobleman. In the end, he was not only cheated out of his money by Slo, but even borrowed 2,000 pounds of usury under the lure of Sloe to see senior officials of the British Admiralty.
Finally, before he saw the legendary Sir Fisher, who was good at innovation and liked novel design, Slo suddenly disappeared. At this time, the usury also came to collect debts, and he knew that he had been deceived, and the usury had rolled up to 3,000 pounds! In the end, I had no choice but to go to the shipyard to pay off the debt.
"Mr. McKinson, can I see your drawings?"
With Slo's words, McKinson was so excited that he even forgot the death threat. He rushed to the big liar and kicked him. It was not until Li Mo asked him that he stopped.
"Do you want to see my drawings?" McKinson didn't understand. Why did this oriental teenager want to see the drawings? Does he think he can understand the design drawings after learning from Sloe, a big liar, for several years? Although Li Mo has been classified as a liar, when he saw Du Dazhuang's indifferent eyes, he immediately plunged into the pile of paper, trembling and took out a panorama and handed it to Li Mo.
As the drawing was slowly opened, Li Mo's eyes gradually lit up. When he finally scanned the signature in the lower right corner of the drawing, he suddenly jumped up from the chair.
"Oregg. Xin. "McKinson!"
"Is it really 1892 now?" Li Mo looked at the signature in a daze. Yu Guang glanced at his face beside him, shivering McKinson, and turned his head to ask Chen Ping.
"...!" Chen Ping was speechless when he heard it. Is the picture cursed? Did the young master have hallucinations?
The name McKinson is unfamiliar to Li Mo, but the surname Oliger is really shocked. As a senior BB Party, this very rare surname means that a generation of famous ships of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, or the last glory of the empire is connected together!
United force level, or Austro-Hungarian monarch level! The world's first dreadnought-class battleship with a triple turret!
At the thought of his favorite dreadnought, Master Li's heart beat: "This Oleg? Will it really be that O'Leg?" But when he saw the pale and nervous McKinson in front of him, he couldn't laugh or cry! Because he can't verify it at all now, he can't ask, "Did you design the United Forces-class battleship more than ten years later?"
However, the design in front of him still made Li Mo's heart beat faster!
With a displacement of about 10,000 tons, a flat deck, a low bridge, a poor command perspective, and an ingenious four-door double main gun configuration. The only drawback is that the layout is to choose the most popular diamond-shaped ear layout in France. In addition to this, it is almost a reduced version of the Austro-Hungarian monarch!
It doesn't matter whether he is the Oleg more than ten years later. For Li Mo, this drawing alone is worth a million dollars!
Seeing the young master holding the drawings, looking at McKinson for a while, and then looking down at the drawings. At a loss, Chen Ping also hurried over. But after seeing it clearly, I was a little disappointed. He didn't understand how this impractical design could make the young master so excited.
"Tay it." Seeing Chen Ping coming over and shaking his head, Li Mo took a deep breath and half squinted to give him the picture. At the same time, he also wanted to test his number one subordinate.
It has been a year since he came to the British shipyard. Chen Ping, who can often contact some engineers, has his own ideas for warship design. In addition, he has studied at the British Naval Academy for so many years, so he immediately said, "It's nothing else, but there are big problems with the displacement and main gun layout. The first is the number of naval guns. The four double main guns can indeed greatly improve the fire output, but it is too heavy for the size of the ship. Moreover, a battleship doesn't just need to be equipped with a main gun, but also needs to be equipped with a second- and third-level secondary gun to ensure a balance of firepower!
Four main guns need four corresponding ammunition depots, plus secondary guns and armor, at least 20,000 tons! According to the latest British majesty class, it takes at least 20 boilers and four reciprocating steam engines to promote the 20,000-ton battleship. Not to mention whether these things can be loaded or not, even if they are loaded, I don't think the speed will exceed 15 knots! It's not as fast as the old ironclad ship.
In addition, the main gun in the middle is symmetrically arranged on both sides of the central axis. If it shoots in a volley, the recoil will directly smash the deck and keel, so that it will sink first without the enemy to fire.
After saying that, Chen Ping returned the picture to McKinson and said with a smile, "Mr. Mike, with all due respect, I'm afraid that the Austro-Hungarian Empire and the Italian Admiralty also think so."
McKinson didn't expect that there would be such a big apist around Li Mo. However, he was stunned. After hearing Chen Ping's last words, he was so arrogant that he immediately retorted, "I believe in my design!"
"I believe it too!"
Chen Ping originally wanted to say that McKinson was hard-mouthed, but as soon as the words came to his mouth, the young master's voice came to his ears, saying that he believed in McKinson's design, and he suddenly looked surprised. He thought that the young master said so because he saw that there were many main guns and the firepower was strong, so he quickly pulled the corner of La Li Mo's clothes and said in Chinese, "Young master, this..."
"Don't worry, I know what I'm doing!" Li Mo turned his head and smiled at Chen Ping. Then he looked at McKinson again and said, "Mr. McKinson, I happen to have a shipyard. I don't know if you would like to work for me?"
"Working for you?" McKinson looked at the 17- or 18-year-old young man in front of him and was a little dumbfounded. After a long time, he shook his head and said, "No, this is not a small shipyard that can be built with hundreds of tons, and I don't want to go to your country."
"No, I think you misunderstood." Li Mo looked at McKinson and shook his fingers: "My shipyard is not in Daqing, but in Hawaii, not a small dock of hundreds of tons." Speaking of this, Master Li stood up proudly: "There are two 20,000-ton docks and two 1.5-ton docks. I think this should be enough!"
"70,000 tons!" After calculating, McKinson blurted out.
"In addition, if you are willing to work for me, I can provide the first batch of experimental funds of 100,000 pounds now. As long as I pass the experiment, I can also guarantee that you will preside over the design and construction of any warship you want to build." Master Li shook the drawings in his hand, like a big gray wolf holding a carrot ** little white rabbit.
"The first batch? One hundred thousand pounds! You can also let me build any warship I want to build!" McKinson swallowed and felt a little dizzy. Is this guy crazy? Does he know how much it will cost?
"I'm a madman, so I also like crazy people." Li Mo put on an unpredictable smile and added fire: "In addition, I can pay off all your debts for you now!"
"I..." McKinson was a little out of breath. He looked at Li Mo and looked at Du Dazhuang's pistol in his hand intentionally or unintentionally. Who knew if this guy would go crazy after he refused, so after weighing it for a moment, he gritted his teeth: "I agree!"
"Great!" Li Mo really wanted to laugh happily. Although Chen Ping was still worried when he looked at the drawings, Li Mo did not explain, because he knew that it was useless to explain now. Because someone has said that in addition to the technical shortcomings of the navies of the countries in the pre-fearless era, their thinking seems to have been magic and rigid! No one thought that the unified main gun would not turn around until the dreadnought appeared.
Unfortunately, he didn't wait long for him to be happy, and an annoying voice interrupted his thoughts again.
"Nimo, you really own a big shipyard in Hawaii!"
