super pocket watch

In less than a day, Jerry recruited more than 20 people who agreed to his request for Catherine. Most of them were scientists who had not been recognized for their talents or wanted to seek investment. There were also two people who once had a large fortune.

, but a bankrupt businessman, and two businessmen who, although not officially bankrupt, are already in a difficult situation.

In a long life of more than 400 years, even if she did not deliberately study, Catherine has mastered a lot of knowledge. Humanities, language, customs, and even more valuable is the perspective of looking at people. So even if Catherine has a rising knowledge of science,

She was not proficient in the category, but she still had many methods to verify how many of the people Jerry recruited were worthy of attention.

Putting aside the information provided by Jerry, one of the simplest ways is to let them speak out about their knowledge and abilities. From those people who do not live up to their name and are just raising funds in the name of research, start from these people.

Eliminate the middle.

The remaining ones may not be considered truly gifted and talented, but to a certain extent, they are worthy of people's expectations.

Of course, according to what Jerry said, among the people he was looking for for Catherine, there was also a very special person. This person was named Nicholas Truss. At the Chicago World's Fair in 1**3, this person

He allowed high-frequency current to pass through his body and demonstrated a reversible magnetic field model, which successfully attracted the attention of the audience. It is the so-called "Tesla's rotating iron egg".

And Jerry holds a lot of information about this man named Nikolai Truss.

Of course, Nikolai Truss was not among the people provided by Jerry. He only provided corresponding information to Catherine. He did not bring the information and people to Catherine like the other twenty or so people.

around.

Tang Bai did not expect that Catherine could recruit any outstanding talents in this city in three days. The world of Vampire Diaries, generally speaking, the countries, history, customs, famous figures, and reality where the story takes place

The world can all correspond to a certain extent.

Even if none of the people Catherine found were particularly outstanding, as long as they had corresponding abilities in their own profession, with Tang Bai's help, they would be able to have quite a high influence. Whether it was Harry's world or reality.

There are technologies in the world that have been unlocked. For their era, these technologies may be considered completely expired and have no application. But in the era of the world that Tang Bai lives in, those technologies

Expired and useless technologies will undoubtedly become the leaders.

Coupled with the advanced understanding of the future pulse and development, this is enough for Tang Bai to obtain the capital and influence similar to that of the Ministry of Magic in Harry's world, which can negotiate and manipulate the prime ministers of the Muggle world. Of course, if Tang Bai is given

A leader who is talented enough in a certain area may spread this influence even more.

"You are a very special wizard. I have lived for four hundred years and have met many wizards, but I have never seen a wizard who is the same as you, or even similar." Catherine sat lazily on the sofa, right

He supported half of his smooth lower jaw with his arm, looked at Tang Bai who was holding an ancient book and reading on the opposite side of the wooden coffee table, and said suddenly.

"That's because many times, I don't regard myself as a pure wizard. I don't have as much persistence as they do." Tang Bai returned to the gathering without raising his head: "Humans call this kind of non-conformity apostasy.

?”

"You don't agree with your identity as a wizard?" Catherine asked with some interest.

Tang Bai raised his head and glanced at Catherine: "When this identity is beneficial to me, I identify with it. Otherwise, it is worthless. I never want to classify myself into a certain identity. Whether it is a wizard or a

Potions master, or alchemist."

"Profitist?" Catherine's eyes lit up. Judging from what Tang Bai said, it has almost the same characteristics as her behavior.

"You can think so. But it shouldn't be as pure as you." Tang Bai turned over a page in the book in his hand and replied casually.

"You don't think you are a wizard, but you are immersed in a magic book and turn a blind eye to the women around you?" Catherine picked up a strand of slightly curly hair with her slender fingers, twisted it around her fingertips, and loosened it again.

Opened, his eyes rolled slightly in his sockets, and he said.

"The spells and magic in this book are temporarily useful to me, so I don't mind if you treat me as a wizard now." Tang Bai used a finger as a bookmark, inserted it into the page he was reading, and closed the page with one hand.

He picked up the magic book and waved it in front of Catherine's eyes and said, "I finally got this from Klaus."

"I know, with the moonstone he has been looking for." Catherine curled her lips. Whether it was Emily's magic book or Esther's magic book, Catherine was familiar with it. Tang Bai was familiar with these things.

He didn't hide anything from her.

Although she was dissatisfied that Tang Bai had traded the moonstone that once belonged to her with Klaus for an unknown magic book. But at the same time she was dissatisfied, Catherine felt more relaxed in her heart.

There is more trust in what you say.

If anyone knows Klaus and the ancestral family best, apart from their family, Catherine is undoubtedly the best among them. More than four hundred years have been enough for Catherine to understand what kind of character Klaus is.

Anyone who dares to negotiate a deal with Klaus must have enough bargaining chips and strength. If he does not have the strength, then he must have the bargaining chip in his hand to make Klaus throw a stick. With Klaus's heart, he can make him care about and throw a stick.

Yes, Catherine only knows moonstone.

"What exactly do you want to say? Being so secretive is not like the famous Catherine Pierce I know." Tang Bai sensitively noticed something strange about Catherine.

Catherine's eyes flickered, she lifted her long hair that covered her eyes, and looked at Tang Bai seriously, "You seem to have forgotten what you promised me. You said that if I complete the task you assigned me, I will

I will tell you some information about my daughter."

"I thought you could endure it longer." A slight smile appeared on Tang Bai's face: "What do you want to know? I don't know much about your daughter, but I know how to let you find it.

Her way."

"What's her name?" Catherine opened her mouth and asked in a somewhat difficult tone.

Looking at Catherine's beautiful face that was tense and complicated, Tang Bai was silent for a moment and replied: "Nadia Petrova." (To be continued.)
