Duke,

It is the name of a guild hall.

Similarly, it is also the surname of the owner of the guild and the name of the territory.

Located in the suburbs of the northwest corner of New York, it is rarely visited and few people know that there is a guild hall called the Duke.

It is hard to know where outsiders come from the surname Duke.

Some people say that the ancestors of the duke were indeed awarded the title of duke by the emperor of a certain country, but later the family declined and the glory of the past was gone.

Some people also say that the Duke's ancestors were once a lowly refugee. In order to enter the upper class, they created such a background that was unknown and had nowhere to be verified. In order to prove their glorious origin, not only did they change their surname to Duke, but their children later also called themselves dukes.

The grandfather passed it to his father, the father passed it to his son, and the son passed it to his grandson.

The sons are endless for generations.

However, which one is true can only be a matter of opinion.

Or you can see a little from the conversation between the owner of the guild hall, also the owner of the territory, Duke VII of Winchester.

As for this hall,

It was from Winchester's grandfather, that is, Duke V, that is, the predecessor of the Duke Hall on this land.

The Duke Hall at the beginning was not a guild hall, but the farmers made a temporary decision on this land and jointly paid for a rural tavern.

But in the end, with the progress of the times and the demand for various consumption increased, Duke V also had some other ideas, and this idea was successfully inherited by Duke VI.

Extraordinary business acumen, coupled with unique geographical location and connections.

The Duke Hall was born like this.

Not a hotel, not a nightclub.

The Duke Hall only offers some very simple services.

High-end liquor, imported and pure cotton cigar smoking, accommodation and some entertainment.

For the current fast-paced social pattern, this is the most unique part of the Duke Hall.

Not only that, the Duke Hall also has a unique and very strict member screening mechanism.

You must not enter the government without financial power, and you must not enter the government without talent.

Each new member must have recommendations from two other old members, and this membership is not given in vain. The annual consumption is at least $5 million, otherwise it will be deprived of its membership status.

But it is precisely this strict rule of bullying customers in the store. Many high-ranking officials and nobles still become new members here every year and enjoy going back and forth.

Nothing else,

It's safe here,

secret.

In addition to discussing business, it is more suitable for unknown parties.

Today, Zhang Haoran booked the entire Duke Hall to entertain those arms suppliers who came from afar.

Even for Billy, who arrived twelve hours in advance, Zhang Haoran arranged a very complete and exquisite service package for him.

This led to the fact that the Billy that Zhang Haoran saw was full of frost and had obvious lack of sleep in the first two hours of the meeting.

"Minister Billy, looking at your appearance, were you very tired last night? Actually, you don't have to do this. We will have a long time to deal with each other in the future. We need to pay more attention to our health!"

Whether it is a joke or persuasion.

Anyway, Billy just thought Zhang Haoran was joking. Since last night, Billy's attitude towards Zhang Haoran really regretted that he met too late.

"Nothing to pay attention to. Although I am already over forty this year, I don't think I am worse than those young men in my twenties at all. Just ask the three last night."

The two of them were having dirty jokes when they were having a meal. From then on, it can be foreseen that Wu Dong could not catch up with his younger brother Zhang Haoran in terms of interpersonal communication.

After wiping the oil stains on his mouth, Zhang Haoran asked with a little concern:

"Secretary Billy, how many military suppliers will come this time, are there all on the list?"

When talking about the serious matters, Billy's expression no longer laughed. After thinking about it, he replied:

"It shouldn't be possible for all those on the list to come. After all, they are all big companies. Maybe they will send some executive presidents with enough decision-making power to come over, right?"

"As long as they can decide."

The two of them chatted one by one, and time passed quickly. Seeing that the meeting was approaching, Zhang Haoran stood up first and said:

"Secretary Billy, please first?"

"Um!"

Nodding, Billy was not humble.

After all, as the military's logistics department director, Billy has the qualifications and has the confidence to walk ahead of Zhang Haoran.

What's more, although the protagonist this time is Zhang Haoran and the Black Technology Group, the intention of the military sending Billy over is not just to be a mascot.

The third floor of the hall,

It was originally supposed to be six conference rooms that were soundproofed.

But because Zhang Haoran booked the venue today, this led to the silence of the entire third-floor corridor.

No one,

There was no sound, either.

It was not until Billy opened the door to the conference room that heavy smoke and slightly noisy sounds burst out from the room.

Following Billy into the conference room, enduring the smoke mixed with various smells inside, Zhang Haoran was also looking at the people in the conference room.

There are thirty-six arms suppliers on the list, and at this moment there are only twenty-two people in the conference room except him and Billy.

As for the fourteen who did not come, I don’t know if there is really an urgent matter to deal with, so I don’t have time to attend this meeting, or do I don’t want to come at all.

Zhang Haoran is unknown.

"Gentlemen, let me introduce it. This is Mr. Zhang Haoran, the current chairman of Black Technology Group!"

"Smack sex..."

As the saying goes, you don’t look at the monk’s face and look at the Buddha’s face.

With Billy, the military logistics minister, the people below looked down on Zhang Haoran, there were still some scattered applause after Billy finished speaking.

“OK!”

He nodded slightly satisfied, and then Billy pressed down with both hands, signaling everyone to stop.

"You may have heard of the purpose of your coming here from all over the country today. In advance, this resolution was a decision discussed by the senior military officials and signed by the Minister of Defense Mr. Kyle.

But since you are all military suppliers, and many of you deal with me more than once. So today, I will not favor anyone. Everything will be done in your way. As long as it is not too much, the military will accept it."

Although Billy's words showed that he took the initiative to interfere with the negotiations between Zhang Haoran and the people present today, the last sentence represented his position of the military.

Even if the companies behind these people present today are combined, they can withstand most of the businesses in America. The anti-gravity device cannot be lost.

The emergence of anti-gravity devices represents a period of renewal of arms. In this sensitive period, countries must do their best to promote the rapid assembly of the latest armed forces in the country.

This is the muscle,

This is the fist.
