Chapter 641: The path to reflection is clear
David's good mood lasted all night, and he had to cheer up when he saw Hans the next day.
After all, after thinking about it, Hans' image was undoubtedly very scary.
An inconspicuous second prince, who was able to hide his true identity at a young age without being favored by the world, and even made small moves under the emperor's nose, really can't be regarded as an ordinary person.
He even thought about Hans asking about the dinner yesterday, and prepared many words to deal with all situations.
Unfortunately, Hans didn't mention what happened last night, and David could only hold it in.
Compared with the gloom of yesterday, Hans looked very energetic today. He called David into the car and quickly explained the itinerary for today: "Uncle, I'll take you to see my confidence first."
To be honest, David was very curious about what trump card made the second son so confident.
In order to create an insidious and long-planned image of the second son, Hans needed some packaging.
He knew very well that deceiving David was not a success, and if he caught a few big fish, that would be called a success.
So they drove all the way to the suburbs and came to a remote factory.
Of course, remoteness is only relative. David silently glanced at the hardened ground. There must be a lot of trucks coming and going here.
Benjamin got the news early that a big man would come to visit today.
It is said that the shares of this factory were only taken by Count Jeffreys, and this big man took the majority.
This almost scared Benjamin.
How high must the status of a big man be for Count Jeffreys to bow down to? It can't be the emperor, right?
In the car, Hans finally reminded David.
"Uncle, don't reveal my identity later, just call me Sorenson.
The person in charge here is Benjamin. He was born in the aristocracy of the previous dynasty. Later, he resented the empire and went to sea to find opportunities. He came back recently and guarded the industry here for me."
Hans changed the narrative angle and immediately felt different.
David heard that he was a noble of the previous dynasty, was resentful, and went abroad to develop. This buff was full, and he was definitely an unstable element!
This kind of people are really born anti-orthodox pioneers. The second brother is really well prepared! I don’t know where he found this person.
David became more cautious and followed Hans out of the car honestly.
Benjamin saw the big man behind the scenes coming and quickly cheered up.
He used to resent the empire, but that was resentment for not having privileges.
Now that he is about to take off, he naturally forgets how he complained before.
Especially when he saw the big man behind the scenes, he wanted to perform well and strive to become a noble of the new dynasty.
His eyes passed from Hans, who got off the car first, and he stared at David, who got off the car second.
The latter’s age and appearance perfectly fit the image of the big man behind the scenes.
On the contrary, Hans was too young and was ignored.
"Mr. Sorensen, welcome to your factory."
Benjamin came to David and saluted, making David look at Hans with embarrassment: "Sir, you recognized the wrong person, this is Mr. Sorensen."
Benjamin was even more embarrassed, and his flattery hit the horse's hoof.
But he was also flexible, and immediately turned around and saluted again: "I'm sorry, Mr. Sorensen, I didn't expect you to be so young and promising."
Hans didn't care about these, he went straight to the point: "Benjamin, I heard that you have done a good job recently, so I came to see you on purpose. Keep working hard and strive to restore the glory of your ancestors."
Benjamin was naturally more excited when he heard this, and he quickly expressed his loyalty.
However, few people paid attention to the polite words, and under the leadership of Benjamin, they visited the factory.
David is also a mechanical enthusiast, so he can naturally tell the truth from the false.
But what really surprised him was the equipment all over the floor.
Rifles, machine guns, infantry guns, all of which are strictly prohibited from private production, but they are all available in this unknown small factory.
The workers here are very skilled, and it is obvious that they are not here for show.
David thought of many possibilities, but he did not expect it to be arms.
The second son, Haas, stockpiled a batch of arms near the imperial capital, and he was able to avoid being discovered. This skill is also amazing.
As the saying goes, power comes from the barrel of a gun, and the second son's idea of seizing the throne is very clear!
"Fortunately, I contacted the eldest son in advance, otherwise it would really be a big deal."
David was a little scared, he still felt that Hans's success rate was not high.
But once there is an internal struggle for the throne, the good situation of the entire empire may come to an abrupt end.
As a vested interest, David certainly does not want to see this scene.
Silently raising his evaluation of the second brother, David took the opportunity to ask tentatively: "Mr. Sorensen, these weapons should be contraband, right? How did you get them?"
Hans answered according to the confession prepared in advance: "I also have supporters in the arsenal. There are many people who are optimistic about me. It is very easy to make some small gadgets."
David did not dare to ask further, but was surprised by Hans's power again.
It is understandable in the palace, after all, Hans grew up in the palace.
But it is a bit incredible that a front-line department like the arsenal has power.
The two walked around for a while, and left the arsenal with Benjamin's farewell.
Hans showed his muscles and finally entered the main show.
"Uncle, it's time for you to take action."
"What do you want me to do?"
"Have you seen this Peace Trading Company? Send them money and try to make friends with them. Then let the owner behind them come forward. I will have a good chat with them then."
Hans directly threw a file to David. The latter opened it and saw that it was so detailed that it was scary.
Liszt von Palmer, his mother was from the Viscount Palmer family, his father was ominous, and later because of many meritorious deeds, he was made a baron and even had a small fief.
David was silent, and the sound of silence was deafening.
When he saw his father's ominous face, he trembled all over and felt that he had touched the ticket to hell.
Second brother, you are really my good nephew!
This thing is a hot potato.
Even if the second brother is overthrown, what should I do if I know so many secrets?
As for not listening to the second brother, it is estimated that he will be unlucky faster.
David was helpless. After all, he couldn't escape!
"It's hard to make money, but it's easy to send money." David took on this task.
Hans looked carefully and found that this was a real acting talent. He could not see anything wrong.
If there was no information asymmetry, he would be played to death by his uncle.
"Uncle, I think it is difficult to send money, but it is easy to make money. You can think about how to send money. I only have one request. It's okay to arouse suspicion, but the other party must cooperate with me willingly."
