14. Super Rich

It is not easy to gather so many great generals and great figures of the future together, but Wang Weiyi succeeded in doing so.

When he returned to the front line, he received the warmest cheers from the officers and soldiers of the Supplementary Battalion. Only Guderian said with a stern face: "Sergeant Guo Yunfeng, you will be confined to the army for violating military discipline and leaving the army without authorization."

Wang Weiyi translated the words to Guo Yunfeng. Guo Yunfeng smiled foolishly and didn't care at all. As long as Major Ernst can come back safely, he will be put in confinement.

After accepting the welcome from the officers and soldiers, Wang Weiyi had to carefully consider his mission.

In addition to the already established candidates, Boncrerere and Steck must be brought with them. Sean is a heavy machine gunner, and it seems that it is not very useful.

After careful selection, a total of seventeen people were selected. As soon as Erwin Rommel arrived, the special team would be perfected.

As for the purpose of this mission, except for the special team, the rest of the supplementary battalion did not know. Wang Weiyi only told them that he would lead the team to perform a reconnaissance mission in person.

Two MP18 submachine guns were transferred from Xiao Ling, and they were used by himself and Guo Yunfeng. The Vera Perrosa submachine gun brought by Berlin was handed over to Steyk, who was the most powerful.

This world's first submachine gun invented by Italian Army Colonel B. A. Leviri, is a double-barrel automatic gun, which fires 9mm pistol bullets. Because the gun has a high firing rate, poor accuracy, and is bulky, it is not suitable for individual soldiers, so it is not very popular. However, Perosa is actually used as an ultra-light machine gun.

Therefore, such a "submachine gun" can still play a role in Lance.

"Rider, I suggest you take your two French prisoners with you. I'm sure they will come in handy..." At this moment, Xiaoling suddenly said.

French prisoner? Wang Weiyi was stunned for a moment, then remembered who it was. The soldier who was captured by him was not a soldier: winemaker Pippendu and tailor Will Tinland.

"What are you doing with them?" Wang Weiyi was very surprised.

"The French like romance, and their taste in fine wine and gorgeous clothes completely surpassed their interest in war..." Xiaoling told the rambler who knew nothing about these two aspects: "And according to my intelligence, Lieutenant General El Raflan, the supreme commander of the French army on the Lance front, had a preference in these two aspects until he was a state of fanaticism..."

Wang Weiyi said "Oh": "Will they betray us?"

"According to my analysis, the possibility of betraying you is almost zero. They don't care who they work for. As long as they can save their lives, let them fulfill their dreams, open a winery that belongs to the establishment, and make their own brand of clothing." Speaking of this, Xiaoling seemed very curious: "Rambling, do you really don't know who these two people are?"

"I don't know, who they are has anything to do with me?" Wang Weiyi replied inexplicably.

Xiaoling's words were full of sarcasm: "You are an excellent soldier, but you really have no taste. Pippendu is a descendant of the famous Xigang family in France. You may not know about the Xigang family, but you must know about Lafite?"

Lafite? The Lafite that is sold at a sky-high price?

"Lafite wine was created by the Xigang family. After the death of the third-generation leader of the Xigang family, the ownership of Lafite entered a relatively chaotic historical period. However, the quality of Lafite wine was still unsatisfied. Until Sir James Rothschild won the bid for a sky-high price of 4.4 million francs in 1868, Lafite wine no longer belonged to the Xigang family, and the Xigang family gradually declined." Xiaoling explained to the rambler, a tasteless person:

"But the Xigang family has emerged in this generation, Pipendu Xigang, your captive. In the future, he will regain his family's reputation and buy the "Maggie Manor", one of the four major wineries in Lafite, and become a giant in the wine industry."

Wang Weiyi began to feel curious. He didn't expect that the prisoner he captured would be a wine industry giant in the future. If he shot him that day, would there be such a "giant"?

"As for that Will Tinland, that's even more famous." Xiaoling sighed, as if he was "sentient" by the ignorance of the wanderer: "He is the grandson of Gston Tinland, and Gston founded a silk thread factory, whose name is - Mengtejiao!"

Mengtejiao? God, Mengtejiao, a multinational brand that swept the world?

Wang Weiyi felt a little dizzy, and the two future rich people were right in front of him and he didn't know.

"Montejiao is still very small today, but after the end of World War I, it will soon grow in the hands of Wei Tinglander." Xiaoling explained carefully: "In 1925, under the leadership of Will Tinglander, Moontejiao launched women's underwear and stockings for the first time with knitting, which successfully gained brand awareness. In World War II, natural silk raw materials were very short of natural silk, which prompted Moontejiao to invent rayon that replaces natural silk. This kind of silk fabric produced by multiple processing procedures for polyamine fabrics is comparable to natural silk because its appearance, comfort and feel are comparable to natural silk, and its strength and durability are similar to nylon. This sweater called "bright silk" became the signature of Mengtejiao. The leader of the invention was also Will Tinglander."

Wang Weiyi swallowed his saliva: "That means, these two prisoners will be super rich in the future?"

"In terms of their assets at that time, they can definitely be called super rich..."

"Xiao Ling, how about you saying I invest in them now?" Wang Weiyi asked in a daze: "Does that mean I also own shares in Margot Winery and Mengtejiao? I will become a super rich man in the future?"

"There is such a possibility." Xiaoling's answer was very refreshing: "When you return to...such as from the 1960s to the 1980s, you will have huge wealth..."

Super Rich? Wang Weiyi never dreamed that one day he could become a super Rich.

This idea is good, but where can I get such a sum of funds to invest in them? I am so poor that investing can only be a dream.

He sighed. Such a good opportunity to make a fortune was in front of him, but he was powerless because he had no money. Speaking of the baron, he was a shabby baron. He had nothing except the pitiful manor given by His Majesty the Emperor.

However, Pippendu Xigang and Will Tinland have become two treasures in Wang Weiyi's eyes.
