The arrival of the German inspection team was something that Zhong Yang had been looking forward to for a long time, so he was naturally prepared. First, Chen Ze was responsible for receiving them and his group in Guangzhou City and taking them to visit Tianyu Technology Company. While they were staying there, Zhong Yang went to arrange matters related to the underground base.

At the end of August, with the powerful functions of construction machinery servants, Zhong Yang secretly built an underground base in a sparsely populated mountain area he bought. All the facilities inside have the most advanced technology of this era. They are usually responsible for operating type i and type ii mechanical servants, and their main job is to engage in arms production.

Because he obtained permission to visit the arsenal from Chen Jiongming, Zhong Yang has now obtained more information on weapon product attributes. Among them, the main useful are the German m17 long-handled grenades, the British Vix Maxchin i-type water-cooled heavy machine guns, and the legal caliber 37mm 1916 infantry cannon. Just like the World Weapons Exhibition, the various arms here dazzled Zhong Yang, and even admired that Chen Jiongming's logistics system did not collapse. The supply of different types of ammunition required by so many weapons and arms is definitely a problem that can kill people and then commit suicide.

In addition to the new grenades, machine guns and artillery are second-hand goods bought by Chen Jiongming at high prices. They were used in the first battle to exceed the product's life limit. But for such things, Chen Jiongming proudly showed off their advanced performance in front of Zhong Yang.

In fact, in addition to the three arms appealed, Zhong Yang also saw many mixed rifles, local bird guns and grenades, and even 90mm 1877-type French-made field guns that were about to be completely scrapped. For Zhong Yang, apart from relatively new weapons and equipment that meets the needs, the old weapons really have no imitation value.

Moreover, as a local warlord who was not very powerful, Chen Jiongming is now trapped in Zhangzhou and cannot produce any well-made advanced weapons and equipment. The old-fashioned artillery of the Qing Dynasty could no longer keep up with the current demand, and Zhong Yang could only record them as basic data and was too lazy to imitate them.

Now, the only arms that Zhong Yang is using his smart factory to produce is the Vix Maxim i-type water-cooled heavy machine gun and a new 37mm caliber infantry gun. In order to make up for the current situation of insufficient firepower in the village wing, only rifles as weapons are still not good.

As for the production of grenades, they can be carried out outside. After all, technically, the grenades do not have high technical requirements for the production line, and they can be produced and processed by recruiting qualified technical workers. The source of raw materials for manufacturing gunpowder is the procurement by the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce. The automated chemical production lines in smart factories can produce large quantities of high-performance smokeless gunpowder.

The machine tools originally purchased from French merchants were also placed in the underground base by Zhong Yang. Because Yi Zhongming's soda ash factory needed a good cargo transportation channel, the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce and Tianyu Technology jointly invested in the construction of an asphalt road as a transportation road together with Tangwei Village and Guangzhou City. This road provides a good transportation foundation for surrounding villages centered on Tangwei Village, and the operation of the soda ash factory improved the overall economic situation of the region. A large number of workers with consumption capacity greatly activated the business atmosphere in this area, thus attracting the attention of more merchants.

Zhong Yang, who originally planned to dig a secret base underground in Tangwei Village, had to change his mind and chose a relatively secluded mountainous area around him. It was less than 10 kilometers away from Zhong Yang's seaside villa, which was just right. After spending 400,000 silver dollars, Liu Jinyang handled a land transfer contract for purchasing mountainous areas in this area through Hu Hanmin from the Guangzhou Military Government. Because the terrain here is steep, hard geology and humid climate, it is not suitable for agricultural planting. The trees growing are small, thin, and crooked, and even building a logging farm is meaningless.

In addition, there were no valuable mineral resources, so the land here was abandoned and undeveloped, leaving it full of trees and weeds. Until Liu Jinyang proposed to buy that forest, Hu Hanmin was afraid that the other party would regret it, so he quickly completed the relevant procedures and transferred the ownership of the place for 400,000 silver dollars. Of course, Hu Hanmin himself also received a benefit fee of 50,000 silver dollars.

Construction started at the end of August, and the first phase of the project took more than half a month to complete. A large amount of high-quality concrete and alloy materials provided by the smart factory were used, and the entire project successfully completed the preliminary planning. First, a huge space of 8 meters high and 3,000 square meters was dug 15 meters underground. Eight 200 square meters of attached caves were dug around, forming the prototype of an underground base with the main cave.

Zhong Yang took out many machines and equipment that could be placed from the sub-space and arranged them reasonably inside the underground base. These machines include the Enfield IIIi rifle production line and some machine tools and equipment needed by the Ordnance Research Institute. There are also many advanced instruments and equipment purchased by Chen Zetuo Yuehai Chamber of Commerce from abroad. In this era, the technology blockade of China abroad is not serious. However, few people in China spend their time doing scientific research and technology, because the profit cycle is too long and does not conform to China's actual situation.

However, Zhong Yang was different from what they thought. Relying on smart factories, Zhong Yang did not need to worry too much about the pursuit of economic interests, so he devoted himself to the research and development of technology. Because there was a lack of sufficient technicians, this underground research base could not be officially put into use, but it was still no problem to use it to coax the Germans.

Because of the establishment of the Mechanical Service Manufacturing Center, Zhong Yang can now produce new Mechanical Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufacturing Service Manufact

As for the mechanical servant type II type, from the outside, there is no difference between them and the mechanical servant type I type. The main difference is the different designs on the intelligent system. The i-type servant uses a simple mechanical logic intelligent system, that is, there are only two simple "yes" or "no" instructions, and can only engage in simple monotonous work in production. Any instructions must be input into the intelligent system of the i-type servant in advance, otherwise it cannot be executed.

However, the type ii servants are different. Because they use fuzzy logic biological computer systems, their intelligent systems are more advanced and anthropomorphic. The most typical feature is that they can learn human scientific and technological knowledge and make new designs or improvements to products based on the user's opinions. However, they have no feelings and have great limitations in design ideas, such as being unable to design products that cannot be achieved in existing technologies, nor being able to study new technologies.

The main function of the Mechanical Service Type II type is to maximize the use of the existing technology according to the user's requirements. Therefore, Zhong Yang has now begun to collect a large amount of technical information and textbooks in these aspects. The Mechanical Service Type II type must first enter the required technology into the system before it can be conducted research. Instead of being put into use immediately after it is manufactured. But no matter what defects it has, the Mechanical Service Type II type has always been Zhong Yang's only technical research and development team now. As for the engineers hired by Tianyu Technology, Zhong Yang cannot give him trust, and many research cannot be involved, for example, this is how the cooperation with the Germans is.

The meeting between Casa and Zhong Yang was arranged in the beach villa. The welcoming banquet used a simple buffet, but the main dishes were replaced with Chinese dishes. The wine was made of French red wine and freshly squeezed juice. The whole banquet was not luxurious, or even a bit shabby, but neither side had the heart to consider the boring issue of eating.

This time, the Germans who came to Zhong Yang were not civil groups, but military researchers, and even German active-duty soldiers. Kassa was not a person who liked to beat around the bush. He directly expressed his purpose: "Mr. Zhong, it's honor to see you here." Kassa used pure German, because Chen Ze mentioned it to Kassa before coming here, and Zhong Yang could also speak German.

Zhong Yang didn't know that the young man in front of him was a very high-level Junker nobleman in Germany. He only knew that the other party was the head of these Germans, so he tried his best to maintain a respectful attitude in his words: "So too, my honorable Lord Lorraine, I hope you can spend a pleasant time in China."

"I believe it will, if it is really like what you mentioned in your letter." Leaning leisurely on the side of the sofa, Kasa looked a little lazy. She gracefully held her handsome cheeks on the back of her left hand, and her right hand held a high-legged glass filled with red wine. Her expression and manners were full of aristocratic temperament. This is the heir cultivated by aristocratic cultivation and etiquette education that has been accumulated over hundreds of years. Zhong Yang felt the indescribable confidence and arrogance from Kasa. This is not the superficiality of a nouveau riche, but a temperament and thinking that permeates the bone marrow.

Zhong Yang did not want to be too politic about Casar's directness. Neither side likes to circle around the circle, but leaders with actual power, plans and decisions, and can be determined: "Since that's the case, please follow me and take a look."

After receiving the reply, Casa smiled with a slanted corner of his mouth: "That's right, and if you can, just call me Casa, that's my name." His words revealed a calm confidence and pride. Casa did not value Lorraine's noble surname. He hoped that others would remember his name rather than just paying attention to his surname or family.

"Okay, Lord Casa." This is the first time Zhong Yang has encountered people like Casa. Whether it is Chi Zoeve and Smith who have seen before, although they are well-educated and noble, they are absolutely unable to compare with the German nobleman in front of them. The confidence and calmness that naturally reveals, and the monarchical spirit from the inside out are like the brightest stars in the night sky, bright and grand.

Such temperament and behavior made Zhong Yang even more suspicious of the other party's identity. However, after Zhong Yang thought carefully, he found that the higher the other party's identity, the more beneficial it would be for each other's cooperation. The Germans and the two European powers had a deep hatred, and Germany's control and influence in the Far East had almost dropped to the freezing point of history, so Zhong Yang was not worried about the other party's ability to do anything here. In Germany, which lacked friends in the world, he would cherish any friendship. In history, Germany was also the country with the most powerful technological power. Zhong Yang, who had an urgent desire for technology, needed the other party's strength. If the United States and the Soviet Union had not divided Germany's technological achievements after World War II, there would not have been a blowout situation of science and technology development in the Cold War.

Zhong Yang was very happy about the arrival of these Germans. As long as the two sides agreed on conditions, it was not difficult to arrange German technicians to come to China for employment. In the unemployed army in the East Drift, the job-changing and disappearing of several military technicians is not a big deal. Even if British intelligence personnel have obtained some clues, it will take a long time to investigate what they find. Although the intelligence agencies of the great powers are strong, they refer to their monitoring systems in Europe and the Americas. As for Asia and the Far East, in addition to the intelligence systems in Japan and the Soviet Union in the north, China is still relatively free and safe.

After half an hour's drive, Kasa accompanied Zhong Yang to the secret underground base located in the center of Lushan through the underground tunnel. The entrance to the underground tunnel is in the parking garage of the seaside villa, and a lifting system is installed using a clever design. As long as Zhong Yang presses the remote control in his hand, a gradual tilt of the mouth will appear, with a width of about 5 meters, which is enough for the passage of vehicles. The controller of the entrance elevator is placed on Zhong Yang's watch, so others do not know that the switches at the entrance are remotely controlled.

The tunnel was equipped with bright yellow street lights, which did not seem dim. Kasa was also surprised that Zhong Yang was able to create such an underground tunnel. This level of engineering was enough to show that the other party's power was absolutely not weak. As the car continued to move forward, Kasa became increasingly interested in this mysterious Chinese capitalist.

After looking at Zhong Yang who was still sitting next to him, Cassan's signature wicked smile unfolded again: "Maybe something more interesting will happen, the East is really a country full of mystery." Cassan thought this way, and his lazy expression once again climbed onto the young and handsome face.
