    Although lighters are cool, the technical threshold of this thing is much lower than that of making matches, especially safety matches.

    The principle of gear ignition is the same as that of flint hair, and the structure is not difficult.  However, cotton wicks and lighter fluid are a bit more technical.

    The former uses absorbent cotton, which is not a problem after caustic soda can be produced.  In addition, the emergence of glycerol is also due to the presence of caustic soda, so it is said that three acids and two alkali are the mother of the chemical industry.  As long as you give enough time, anything can be born.

    As for the most important lamp oil, kerosene is naturally the best, but the petrochemical technology tree has not been activated yet. Fortunately, volatile fuels such as alcohol can be used instead.  The disadvantage is that the fuel evaporates too quickly and needs to be replenished in time, but it is still much more convenient than taking out a lamp.

    And the key is that it¡¯s cool

    Ximen Qing immediately fell in love with this thing. He lit a cigarette like the young master, and played with the nurse lighter as if he had found a treasure.

    Yes, nurse lighter!  When Zhao Hao came back from the hospital, he decided to give this place a name.  And we plan to carve the swallowtail hat on the shell as a trademark.

    After hearing the young master¡¯s plan, Ximen Qingpan became even more excited.  I almost forgot about the real thing.

    When he was about to resign, he slapped his head, took out a letter from his briefcase and said: "This was found from the governor's residence. That boy Chen Yongquan said it was a letter written by the red-haired ghost governor to their deputy king, and it had already been  A copy of the sent letter must be presented to the Young Master for review."

    "Do you think I can understand it?" Zhao Hao laughed and scolded: "None of my staff members understand Spanish. Ask the boy to translate it and bring it to me."

    Although there are people who understand Portuguese, they can barely translate it, but since there are people who understand Spanish, why do they have to guess?

    ??~~

    Two hours later, Chen Yongquan was taken to Zhao Hao¡¯s beach lounge.

    It is on the beach, using bamboo poles to lift parasols made of oilcloth.

    Under the parasol, there are several bamboo chairs and a wooden table.  The table was covered with tropical fruits and soft drinks on ice trays, as well as cigarettes and cigars.

    Mr. Zhao was only wearing a pair of big pants and big sunglasses. He was lying comfortably on a bamboo chair, drinking cold beer and bragging happily with Tang Baolu.

    Chen Yongquan is still wearing the clothes of ordinary people. Only the red scarf tied around his neck can show his identity as a soldier. He is completely different from the navy police soldiers who are well-dressed from head to toe.

    But he still stood up straight and performed a standard military salute.

    "Report, Chen Yongquan, commander of the third battalion and fourth company of the second regiment of the first division of the Luzon Army, has been ordered to report!"

    "Yongquan, don't be so nervous. It's time to relax after the war." Tang Baolu was wearing a small gown, which was so tight on his body that his accessory breasts were squeezed out.

    ???????????????????? Apparently, the meat I lost before has grown back even harder in the past two months.

    "Haha, yes, on a tropical beach, there are waves. Unfortunately, there are no girls in bikinis, only a group of guys with hairy legs. Come, sit down and talk." Mr. Zhao asked someone to move a chair for him and said with a smile, "How about it?  Is this company commander satisfactory?"

    "It's not satisfactory." Chen Yongquan sat up straight and said: "I think the disciple soldiers sound nice, but in fact they are just country bumpkins from the local warriors and militia, which is very boring."

    As he spoke, he said with a flattering smile: "I still want to join the Coast Guard, even if I am a top soldier."

    "You guys have a great future as a soldier." Tang Baolu smiled and handed him a coconut candy.

    Chen Yongquan chewed the candy and muttered: "Anyway, I just want to be a coast guard"

    "Let's see how well you translate first." Zhao Hao stretched out his hand noncommittally.

    Chen Yongquan quickly handed over a stack of manuscript paper. Zhao Hao took it and took a look at it and said with a smile: "The handwriting is good."

    "That's" Chen Yongquan was about to brag a bit in order to promote himself, but saw that the young master's attention had been quickly attracted by the report.

    It was a long letter written by Sand, the Spanish Governor of the Philippines, to Marshal Luis Velasquez, the deputy king in Mexico, in April this year.

    The first page of the letter clearly states that this is "a report on the intelligence collection of the Ming Kingdom in accordance with His Highness's orders, as well as a memorandum of several suggestions."

    The content of the report alone contains 11 paragraphs and 97 articles, which provide a detailed description and analysis of the military situation, economic and social conditions of the Ming Dynasty.

    At that time, there were still two months before the massacre in Jiannei, and Zhao Hao¡¯s fleet was nowhere to be seen.  However, this can more objectively reflect the Spanish attitude towards the Ming Dynasty and is of great reference value.

    First of all, Governor Sander clearly believed that the size of the Ming Dynasty???¡®Either attack as soon as possible or give up altogether, because the Chinese people are becoming more and more vigilant.  Moreover, their civilian maritime power has developed rapidly.

    ¡°A few years ago, we only needed the Philippine fleet to control the Chinese coast.  But in the past few years, a private armed force called the Nanhai Group has risen rapidly and even defeated the Portuguese. Therefore, to be cautious, a fleet should be dispatched from the west coast of America as soon as possible to Asia to eliminate all Ming Dynasty's maritime power The focus is on the South China Sea.  group.  ¡¯

    ¡°In short, if they had launched an invasion a few years ago, their huge country would have been defeated in one blow.  There was no need for hard work, expense, or casualties; if there was to be gains now, there would be losses, but if they delayed for a few more years, once they sobered up, they might never be able to occupy the Ming Kingdom again.  ¡¯

    Therefore, Governor Sander asked the Deputy King to persuade His Majesty the King to approve the plan immediately.  It will provide His Majesty with ¡®the greatest opportunities and the most magnificent results that can be given to a king on earth¡¯!  What your Majesty will receive is all the wealth and immortal honor that the human mind can desire!  After conquering the Ming Kingdom, the Spanish Empire can completely become the master of the world, and His Majesty can truly be crowned the King of Kings!  ¡¯
