《Reborn in Brazil As a Plutocrat》 Chapter 1: the wounded Chapter 1 Wounded In November 1944, at the Naples Naval Hospital in Italy, the cold sea breeze blew Fang Lang''s hospital gown. He didn''t seem to realize it, and was admiring the warships moored in the naval port with a look of amazement. It''s not that these warships are advanced and mighty, but the final glory of these giant ship cannons really shocked him enough. "Fang, why did you run out? Mr. John Clark is looking for you all over the hospital!" The young nurse who could clearly see the freckles on her face was anxious. "Miss Lilith, you are so beautiful today." Thanks to Fang Lang''s 20 years of sailor career, he was able to communicate with this little nurse in unfamiliar Italian. "Thank you for your compliment, but this doesn''t convince me that you continue to blow the cold wind here. Come in, the sea breeze is cold outside, and your body hasn''t recovered yet! Did you forget that you passed out suddenly when you were standing yesterday?" Lilith is obviously used to Fang Lang''s praise. Since the U.S. military landed in Italy, this naval base and surrounding ancillary facilities have been requisitioned, obviously including this hospital. The American soldiers are notoriously free and undisciplined, and they must have molested the little girl in front of them. "Okay! If you can be gentle with me during the injection, I promise I won''t run out again." Fang Lang said playfully, walking into the hospital. "You mean I''m not gentle enough? Believe me, you will soon see what it means to be ungentle." The little girl said fiercely. "No, believe me, the reason why I ran out to blow the cold wind was because I was afraid that I would fall into your gentle hometown and would never be able to go out again, so I had to let the cold wind from the Mediterranean wake me up." Fang Langyi Lilith''s face flushed red as she looked at her affectionately. "Haha Fang, should I hide aside so as not to affect your confession." A figure across the corridor also wearing a hospital gown, a US military jacket, and a cane leaning against the wall joked. "Hey John, since you know you shouldn''t speak out, you should hide and don''t affect my confession." "Haha. Brother, you have no chance. Obviously Lilith likes me, haven''t you noticed?" John said confidently, and he still raised his eyebrows at Fang Lang. The teasing of the two made Lilith a little shy, but she still imitated the tone of the aunt in the hospital: "You two bastards, you have no chance, get out of the ward, I''m going to give you an injection." Fang Lang and John hugged gently and laughed loudly, and walked back to the ward. In fact, the hospital has never figured out where Fang Lang was injured. He was in a coma when he was sent to the hospital. The frontline doctors thought that his brain was damaged by the shock wave of the explosion, and he fell into a coma. He didn''t wake up for a week. Thought it was hopeless. After John''s strong request, Fang Lang was sent from the field hospital on the front line to the Naples Naval Hospital. The reason why John wanted to bring Fang Lang out was very simple. Fang Lang was injured to save him. If Fang Lang hadn''t desperately dragged John, who was injured in his leg, out of the trench at that time, John would have fired the shells that flew later, directly Boom into dregs. And Fang Lang was injured and unconscious because he was thrown nearly ten meters by this shell. What John didn''t know was that Fang Lang was no longer the sergeant of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force who dragged him out of the trench. Fang Lang only remembered that he was originally COSCO, the chief engineer of a 100,000-ton container ship, encountered a typhoon while crossing the Drake Passage, and he was checking the fastening of the equipment in the storm while wearing a safety rope. The person who was directly beaten by the waves flew out of the gangway, was dragged by the safety rope, and lost consciousness after hitting the container. When he woke up again, he became Fang Lang, a soldier of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force in the Italian War of World War II. In the first few days, Fang Lang always felt that he was in chaos, and the memories of two different people were constantly intertwined and repeated. Until now, Fang Lang''s head will still shut down suddenly, but after waking up, his spirit will be significantly improved, and a lot of original memories will gradually increase, including some memories that Fang Lang has forgotten before, such as even primary school classrooms. The chalk words left by the teacher on the blackboard can be clearly remembered. "Fang, my father found me." John couldn''t tell what he was feeling. John had never mentioned his father to anyone. "What do you mean you ran away from home?" Fang Lang is actually not familiar with John. John was a major liaison officer assigned by the US military to the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. Fang Lang was originally a sergeant squad leader of the first regiment of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. Almost nothing to do with John. But the two were fighting in the same trench, and Fang Lang saved John''s life, which made John, an American cowboy, very grateful. A comrade who had never met before risked his life to save his life, and John felt that he had to repay him. "Of course not, it''s just that my relationship with my father is not good. We would quarrel when we met. Originally, he wanted me to go to the navy, but I wanted to stay away from him, so I came to the army." "Hi! What''s the matter, my old man and I don''t often talk back, he always wants to control me, let me inherit my father''s business, and manage the family farm, my God! It''s not a feudal society now, I have Isn''t it my freedom? So, I secretly signed up to join the army! I don''t know if he is angry at home or not." John didn''t expect the two people to have similar experiences. "Then does your father know that you have come to Italy?" "I wrote him a letter before leaving, but I haven''t received a reply so far, so I don''t know if he knows where I am! Thinking about it, I still feel a little disobedient." Fang Lang didn''t understand why Why do you have a cramp in your head and join this Brazilian expeditionary force. As far as Fang Lang knows, it seems that only Brazil in South America joined World War II at the instigation of the United States, and only 20,000 to 30,000 people in Brazil seemed to participate in the war. If it was to fight Little Japan, Fang Lang would definitely not say a word, and he would be done with it, but helping the United States to go to Europe to fight the war must be a brain cramps. John patted Fang Lang on the shoulder and said: "Brother, don''t be sad, I can go and ask our logistics department if we have received your letter." Because the Brazilian Expeditionary Force is actually a unit under the jurisdiction of the U.S. military, the U.S. military is responsible for logistics, equipment, supplies, mail, and allowances, so John said to help him ask if there is any letter from him. "Now that you''re on the battlefield, it''s useless to think about it. You said your father found you? What do you mean?" Fang Lang didn''t want to continue thinking about the unchangeable facts. "Today he called the hospital and said that he had arranged for his adjutant to come and find me. He wanted to transfer me to the logistics department of the navy. But I don''t want to work under him at all, **** it." Obviously John is very concerned about his father''s request He was very dissatisfied with transferring him to his subordinates to protect him. "Hey! Brother, you have a good father. He wants to protect you, understand?" Fang Lang heard that John''s father was going to transfer John to the logistics department under his command, so he knew that his father was definitely not an ordinary person. "I understand, but I don''t need protection. I''m an adult, and he still treats me like a child." John''s brain circuit really made Fang Lang very surprised, and he didn''t know how to use such a good resource. "Hey! Dude, according to you, your father is a great man, right?" Fang Lang was really curious about who John''s father was. Originally, he thought that John''s situation in the US military should be similar to his situation in the Brazilian army. Because John is not a white man. From his yellow skin, black hair, and black eyes, it can be seen that he is definitely a minority. The proportion and status of ethnic minorities in the US military should be similar to that of Fang Lang, a Chinese, in the Brazilian army. (end of this chapter) Chapter 2: Relational account Chapter 2 Relationship households When John heard Fang Lang ask about his father''s identity, he didn''t hide it, and said directly: "Yes, my full name is John J. Clark, and my father is Joseph J. Clark. Have you heard of it? ? "Dude, I''m just a soldier of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. Besides Roosevelt, the biggest person I know in the United States is you. Of course Roosevelt doesn''t know me." Fang Lang made a joke with a helpless expression on his face. I don''t know what kind of big shot his father is, so he thinks he knows him too, but it can be heard from his words that he is still very proud of his father. John laughed loudly and said, "Brother, I should be proud of what you mean, right? I can become a big shot with Roosevelt, haha." John laughed heartlessly again. "Hey, hey wake up, you haven''t said who your father is yet!" Fang Lang was also helpless about John''s carefree character. "Uh ok! Can''t you make me happier for a while? Keeping a happy mood can make my injury heal faster, you know?" Looking at Fang Lang''s face that began to darken, John smiled and said: " Okay! Okay! Satisfy your curiosity, but you must remember not to tell others? My father is the commander of the Fifth Aircraft Carrier Fleet. How? Are you considered a big shot? Hehe." John''s words shocked Fang Lang, no wonder he felt that he should know, he was indeed a big shot. Looking at John''s complexion, Fang Lang couldn''t help but wondered: "Are you sure it''s your own? Wait, don''t be angry, I mean you are of the yellow race like me, and your father should also be of the yellow race! " Hearing Fang Lang''s question, John almost raised his fist and smashed it, but after thinking about it, he understood Fang Lang''s question. The United States is indeed a country with serious racial discrimination, and it is really difficult for minorities like them to stand out. "Okay! Brother, I forgive you. You are right. My father is also of yellow race. To be precise, we are all Indians. My father is of mixed Cherokee and Sioux, and my mother is Jewish. So You know that if my father takes care of me, there may be some bad influence, so I don''t really want to work under my father''s command." Hearing what John said, Fang Lang understood what John was thinking, and was afraid that for his own reasons, his father would wear the hat of nepotism, which would damage his father''s prestige. "Wait! John, I see what you mean. You think if you work in the army through nepotism, it will damage your father''s reputation, right?" "Yes!" John took it for granted, indicating that he did refuse to serve in the navy for his father''s consideration. Fang Lang patted his forehead and said, "Brother, are you bad? You are twenty-seven years old this year. You are already a major in the U.S. Army, and you still earned it entirely by yourself on the battlefield. Do you think your abilities are bad? " Fang Lang felt that this dead-headed Yankee should be educated. "Do you not know what nepotism is, brother, you are completely incompetent, and relying on your father''s relationship to survive in the army is called nepotism. But you don''t need the support of your family at all, and rely on your own efforts to become a major in the army , In our Huaxia saying, this is called a tiger father without a dog, understand? You should go to your father''s command to help your father, understand? This is called a father-son soldier." After listening to Fang Lang''s words, John was slightly absent-minded and fell into deep thought. Fang Lang didn''t bother him either, and began to worry about his situation. He didn''t want to continue to go to the battlefield to work hard for the Yankees and Germans. Although the salary was very good, don''t let him work for the Yankees. Soon, John hugged Fang Lang and kept patting Fang Lang on the back: "Brother, I understand. You are right. I should help my father and stand with him." Hearing that John could figure it out, Fang Lang was also very happy for him. Thinking about it, if I had such a relationship, I would have already gone to be the prince, and I went to the army to work hard by myself. This is definitely a brain hole. "Brother, how about you come and help me? If you stay in the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, you can only go up to be cannon fodder. I don''t want my savior to run to die." Looking at John with a sincere face, Fang Lang knew that this was his sincere words. At the same time, I was overjoyed that there was no need for such a relationship. Fang Lang was not as dead-headed as John, but Fang Lang couldn''t speak up about this kind of thing. But now that John speaks by himself, he doesn''t have to worry about it at all. "Is this appropriate? I am the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, and your father transferred you to the Fifth Aircraft Carrier Fleet. If I am transferred to your Fifth Fleet, then I will not belong to the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, right?" Fang Lang didn''t quite understand Find out if such a transfer is feasible. "It seems that the Brazilian Navy is under the jurisdiction of the Fourth Fleet, and my father''s troops are fighting against Japan on the Asia-Pacific battlefield. You are not the US military. It seems that it is really not feasible to transfer you to the Asia-Pacific theater. But the logistics director of the Fourth Fleet is Commodore Neo Jackson is my father''s old comrade-in-arms. He used to be a guest at our house. I know him very well. It should be fine to ask him to help take care of my savior. Ask him to arrange for you to be transferred to the Brazilian Navy logistics How about the Ministry?" Listening to John''s relationship, Fang Lang wanted to laugh out loud. Needless to say, the United States is Brazil''s father now, and all the logistics are in charge of the US military. Without showing his head, Fang Lang felt that he could find a piece of tofu and crash him to death. "Of course, brother. It doesn''t matter where I go as long as I stay away from our officers who can''t command battles at all." If it is really possible to be transferred to the logistics department, it will not be too easy in the future. It is now the end of 1944, and World War II will officially end on September 2 next year. I must find a way to get enough benefits and accumulate enough capital in the last time. "Then it''s settled. I''ll finish talking with my father''s adjutant first. Then go talk to Brigadier General Jackson! You can rest in peace, don''t worry, and you will never be sent back to the front line to die." In this way, a week later, Fang Lang was lying on a hospital bed and received a transfer order from the Expeditionary Army Headquarters. In view of Fang Lang''s heroic performance on the battlefield, he was awarded the rank of second lieutenant. Unable to continue to serve in combat units due to injuries, he was transferred to the Naval Logistics Department. Although Fang Lang knows that the Brazilian Navy in this era is basically a joke, but the joke is good! Jokes don''t need to go to the battlefield! The joke only needs to be transporting some supplies and throwing a few mines. Is there anything easier than this? Besides, it was the logistics department of the Navy, Fang Lang almost burst out laughing. After receiving the order, Fang Lang didn''t have a headache anymore, and he didn''t feel dizzy anymore, as if this order was a magic medicine for healing, and he was resurrected on the spot. Actually, Fang Lang did faint suddenly a few times this week, but it has become less and less. Fang Lang also completely absorbed the memory of the original body during these fainting. He is a fourth-generation immigrant from Brazil. His grandfather was a team officer of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. At the last moment of the destruction of the Heavenly Kingdom, he took more than 300 subordinates and fellow villagers and boarded a ship bound for the United States. When passing through Japan, I heard the propaganda of the Brazilian government in Japan that as long as the immigrants are naturalized, they can divide the land, which is safer than going to the United States to make their own way. After discussion, everyone unanimously decided to go to Brazil. In this way, a group of survivors of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, who had never heard of where Brazil was, came to Sao Paulo, Brazil to settle down after nearly two months. Because the grandfather is the official of the Kingdom of Heaven, he has some prestige among this group of immigrants, and some wealth brought from the Qing Dynasty also allowed them to quickly own their own farm in Brazil. The farm has more than 100 hectares. family of landowners. Overseas Chinese gather together to keep warm. After three generations of hard work, the Chinese in Sao Paulo have grown to a village of less than 2,000 people, but compared with the more than 100,000 Japanese immigrants, it is insignificant. With the outbreak of World War II, some conflicts inevitably arose between Brazilian Chinese and Japanese. Since the Brazilian government had always belonged to the pro-German faction, the living environment of the Chinese was very poor. Fortunately, as the Americans began to intervene in Brazilian politics, later It even brought Brazil into the camp of the Allies, and the living environment of the Chinese began to improve, and the Japanese immigrants began to restrain their minions. That is to say, under such circumstances, Fang Lang joined the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. There were only three Chinese in the entire expeditionary force, and none of the Japanese, because the Japanese in Brazil were all living overseas and their hearts were in Japan, so , no one joined the Brazilian Expeditionary Force at all. After Fang Lang joined the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, because he practiced some boxing skills with his grandfather since he was a child, he fought bravely. He captured several Italians and killed several Germans on the battlefield. So in the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, they were also mixed up as sergeants. If there is no saving John, it is estimated that it will be difficult to have a chance to rise again when he retires. Its not that the Brazilian army is racially discriminatory, but that both the government and the military in Brazil are quite corrupt. If the officers above are not given benefits, there is basically no hope of promotion. Of course, other people will have sufficient reasons, such as soldiers becoming officers and going to a military academy to study, etc., you absolutely cannot refute. (end of this chapter) Chapter 3: to report Chapter 3 report "Reporting officer, Fang Lang, second lieutenant of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, come to report!" Fang Lang stood outside the door of Brigadier General Neo Jackson of the US Fourth Fleet and called. This is what John told Fang Lang when he left Italy first, and Brigadier General Jackson hoped to chat with Fang Lang before he arrived at his post. "Come in!" A majestic voice came from inside the door. Fang Lang adjusted his military appearance again, stretched out his hand and opened the door, and saw a tall, blond, blue-eyed middle-aged man in his fifties sitting behind a large desk inside the door, looking up at him . Fang Lang walked to the desk in a standard military posture and saluted: "Your Excellency, Second Lieutenant Fang Lang is reporting to you!" At this moment, Fang Lang was still very nervous. It was the first time in his two lives that he saw such a big officer. Although John said that General Jackson was easy to get along with, it was because he had a good father, and he was only from a small third-rate country. The identity of a soldier is not much different from that of a colonial servant. If you don''t perform well, you might just send yourself to the corner. "I heard from John that you saved his life, right?" Brigadier General Jackson didn''t let Fang Lang sit down, and asked directly. "Report to the general, yes." Fang Lang was worried that he would make too many mistakes, so he could only ask and answer. "Have you always been familiar with him?" Hearing Brigadier General Jackson''s question, Fang Lang understood that he suspected that he had other intentions to save John. "Report to the general. I didn''t know him before saving him. When I woke up in the same ward with him, I realized that it was him who saved him. I gradually got to know him." Brigadier General Jackson, who had been staring at Fang Lang''s expression, felt relieved of his doubts after hearing Fang Lang''s answer. "I heard from your officer that you were very brave on the front line. Why did you want to be transferred to the Naval Logistics Department?" Brigadier General Jackson once again raised the question in his heart, obviously suspecting that Fang Lang asked John because he was greedy for life and afraid of death. Transfer him to the logistics department. "Report to the general, mainly because of this injury, I always faint suddenly. John was worried that my body would be dangerous in the combat troops, so he recommended me to your command." Fang Lang couldn''t say that John was In order to repay the life-saving grace, everyone on the battlefield is you save me and I save you. If because of a life-saving grace, the benefactor has to be transferred to the logistics department, this may make General Jackson feel that John is not mature enough, of course Fang Lang felt that John was immature, but the more immature, the better for Fang Lang. "Then do you still have this kind of sudden fainting now?" Jackson obviously didn''t want to have someone under his command who would faint at any time. "Report to the general, I don''t know about this problem. I haven''t fainted for three days. I personally feel that my physical condition is fine now, and I can work at any time." Fang Lang didn''t want to be sent back to the hospital to continue lying down. "Okay! If you feel unwell, do you have to report it in time?" Jackson was also worried that if Fang Lang had any physical problems with him, John would make trouble for him. "Understood the general!" Fang Lang couldn''t tell Jackson that his health is so good now that he can kill a cow, and he doesn''t know if it''s the sequelae of time travel. What appeared to be a thin body is now beginning to show more and more obvious muscles. The spirit is even better. Fang Lang feels that he can persist without sleeping for at least three or four days. "Then tell me what you know, and I''ll arrange a job for you." Brigadier General Jackson still decided to accept the entry of this relationship. "Reporting to the general, I can speak English, French, Portuguese, Chinese, Spanish and Italian, and I can also do some basic oral communication. If I have skills related to the navy, I can be competent for the shipping work of large transport ships." Fang Langhui So many languages, of course, are the wealth of knowledge brought to him by the people of the two lifetimes. And the shipping work of large transport ships is the old line of work in the previous life. Of course, the current ships are definitely not as advanced as their ocean-going container ships, but it is also an essential skill for their crews to cross the ocean without relying on automated driving of ships. And more than 20 years of ocean-going sailing skills are comparable to the excellent captains of this era. Fang Lang''s answer obviously surprised Brigadier General Jackson: "Aren''t you the son of a Brazilian farmer? How come you know so many languages ??and navigation." Obviously, Brigadier General Jackson had investigated Fang Lang''s background. Unexpectedly, his answer was quite different from what Brigadier General Jackson had learned, but Fang Lang couldn''t say it was his previous skill! After thinking about it for a long time, I could only reply weakly: "Uh! Report to the general, I learned all of these by myself. My dream before joining the army was to own a ship of my own. I want to sail to my hometown Huaxia to have a look. . "Okay! Looks like I have another job for you. Go to the transport ship Charles Joss at the pier and report to Major Raquel Cross! Their transport ship will be returning to the United States soon , I will ask Major Cross to conduct an assessment on you. If you can successfully pass the assessment, then I will allocate one of the transport ships we seized to you for the Brazilian Expeditionary Navy to let you serve as the captain, to satisfy your captain. Dream. How?" Brigadier General Jackson was delighted when he heard that Fang Lang was confident that he could handle the shipping work of ocean-going transport ships. Because General Mascareus Di Morais, the commander of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, has approached Commodore Jackson many times, hoping to arrange a transport ship for the Brazilian Navy, so that the Brazilian Expeditionary Force can independently open the expeditionary force and Brazil. Airline, to transport the wounded and dead soldiers back to the Brazilian mainland. There are quite a few transport ships captured now, but none of the trusted captains are willing to work for the Brazilians alone, and the captured ships are not prepared to be sold to merchants at a low price. If Fang Lang is really qualified to be the captain of an ocean-going transport ship as he said, wouldn''t it be that if he wants to fall asleep, someone will give him a pillow. "Yes! Your Excellency, General! Thank you for your cultivation, and my subordinates will never let you down." Fang Lang was ecstatic when he heard that he could directly assign a warship to the Brazilian Navy after passing the test and let him serve as the captain. Although the transport fleet is often attacked by the German Navy submarine force at this time, it is actually escorted by the naval fleet every time it sails. Moreover, with Fang Lang''s military rank and aptitude, he should not be arranged for a large transport ship, and small transport ships will not become the main target of the German army. Soon Fang Lang followed the orderly under the arrangement of Brigadier General Jackson, holding his own transfer order. Arrived at Navy Pier in Naples. In fact, this place is not far from the Naval Hospital, but the warships are moored near the Naval Hospital, and Fang Lang''s current location is a berth belonging to transport ships. The transport ship Charles Joss in front of me is obviously a free ship that has been in service for no more than two years, and the free ship is actually a ship type that Fang Lang is very familiar with, because it is so famous, since 1941 Construction, as of 1945 when Germany was defeated and surrendered, more than 2,700 ships had been built in 18 shipyards in the United States. I don''t know if this ship is an improved Victory Wheel. Fang Lang still hopes to board the Victory Wheel, because the initial Liberty Wheel was only powered by an old steam engine, and the speed was only about eleven knots. The speed of the submarine has reached 17 knots, so if it is discovered by a German submarine, it will not be able to escape. The Victory Wheel has improved power on the basis of the Free Wheel, and its speed can reach 18 knots. At least it will not be overtaken by German submarines, and its life is more secure. Of course, the Liberty Ship is also armed. Each Liberty Ship has six anti-aircraft guns and one anti-submarine gun. Passing through the crowd who were using hoisting equipment to transport materials, Fang Lang followed the messenger through the gangway and boarded the free ship that was about to return to the United States to transport strategic materials. (end of this chapter) Chapter 4: Famous watch Chapter 4 list Major Raquel Cross, the captain of the transport ship Charles Joss, is a **** man with a bald head and a beard. He is about forty years old. In the impression of the original body, this is the first black American officer that Fang Lang knows. Black people in this era will be discriminated against in the American army, so Fang Lang is surprised that a black man can serve as the captain of the United States, but there are so many in Brazil. It''s black, and Fang Lang knows how to deal with black people. After seeing the order delivered by the orderling, Fang Lang stood at attention and saluted, and was interrupted by Major Cross''s outstretched right hand just as he was about to speak. Seeing the other party''s outstretched right hand, Fang Lang quickly reached out and held it . "Hello, Lieutenant Fang Lang, you don''t have to be too restrained on the ship. You are welcome to board the Charles Jose." After speaking, he patted Fang Lang''s right arm with his left hand, very enthusiastically. "Hello, Major Cross, I am Fang Lang of the Brazilian Expeditionary Army. It is an honor to be able to study on your ship." Cross could see Fang Lang''s embarrassment from Fang Lang''s expression, but no other white soldiers saw his strangeness, and obviously he would not express dissatisfaction because he was black. Since it was Commodore Jackson who directly arranged for him to board the ship so that he could assess the other party''s sailing skills, and he was a young man who looked less than twenty years old, Cross felt that this person should be a related family no matter what he thought. Therefore, in terms of attitude, he did not show the airs of an officer at all. "Okay, young man, since everyone is going to live on the same boat, we are brothers. I will ask the first officer to arrange a bed for you first, and then I suggest you take the time to make a big purchase today, because our return journey on the boat There are a lot of empty positions, maybe you can make a fortune when you arrive in the United States." Hearing Major Cross''s direct words made Fang Lang''s heart beat wildly, isn''t this a free transport ship? Need to think carefully about what can be sold from Italy to the US to make money. "Captain, won''t we be punished for using the warship to transport personal items like this?" Fang Lang was still a little worried about whether he would be punished. "Haha. Young man, we just bring some of our own personal belongings, and we don''t want to fill the boat full. What''s the problem? There''s nothing to pull on the boat on the return trip! Who cares what you bring. This But the welfare of the crew! In the future, you will also bring some personal items to the crew on your ship, wont you? Major Cross said meaningfully. Fang Lang listened to what Major Cross said, and he also recalled that he also allowed the crew to bring some personal belongings on ocean-going freighters in modern society. Why couldn''t he react when he arrived in the army? "I see, thank you for the reminder, sir!" I couldn''t help thinking, what things can be sold in Italy to the United States to make money directly? Think about it, many of the most famous Italian products in later generations seem to be luxury goods, chocolates, and sports cars, but at this time, these seem to have not grown up yet! In this way, Fang Lang, under the leadership of the chief mate, settled down, and soon came to the streets of Naples, Italy, and began to look for goods that could make him rich. Because it was still early, Fang Lang was not in a hurry, while admiring the streets of Italy , while sighing in my heart, these Italians are not good at fighting, but they are really good at cooking food. After shopping for so long, it seems that the most shops on the street are restaurants. This made Fang Lang very helpless, he couldn''t take the pasta to sell in the United States! How could it be possible to make a fortune, let alone pizza, and there were no famous Italian industrial products in this era. It seems almost impossible to get rich. In fact, none of the above was the reason why Fang Lang couldn''t get rich. He touched his five hundred dollars of capital in his pocket, and sighed helplessly. Capital is the fundamental reason that restricts Fang Lang''s fortune! Of course, everyone should not think that five hundred dollars is small money. The dollars in this era are much more valuable than the dollars in modern society. This money is the military salary that Fang Lang has saved for a long time. Fang Lang wandered around and came to an alley behind the Naval Hospital. Fang Lang found that most of the people gathered here were soldiers, including American soldiers, Italian soldiers, and British soldiers. Although everyone had different military uniforms, they all gathered in this small alley. There was conversation on both sides of the alley. Fang Lang, who thought there was something exciting to watch, couldn''t hold back his instinct to join in the fun, so he went over. I saw a few soldiers placing all kinds of trophies on the ground, including German watches, medals, pistols, water bottles, helmets, rifles, etc., and even a BMW 750 motorcycle. Fang Lang understood that this was a black market where some soldiers exchanged trophies. Strolling around with great interest, because I have been on the battlefield for a short time, although I have killed a few Germans, judging from the situation when Fang Lang woke up, there must be no spoils around him, and he touched the five hundred in his pocket. U.S. dollars, after thinking about it, since there is no chance to make a fortune, then buy some souvenirs and keep them for later appreciation! The first thing Fang Lang wanted to buy was a watch, because he didn''t have a watch in his hand now, so he went through the entire black market from beginning to end. To be honest, there are no watches in this era that particularly suit Fang Lang''s aesthetics. When Fang Lang found a watch that suits him, just when Fang Lang was about to give up and choose one at random, a hoarse voice said in not-so-fluent English: "Brother, do you want to change a watch?" Fang Lang looked for his reputation, and saw a short, black-haired and brown-eyed man in an Italian military uniform looking at him. There was no military rank or logo on the military uniform. It was impossible to tell whether it was a real Italian soldier or a black market businessman. Fang Lang didn''t realize until now that most people would actually take off the obvious troop logo on their bodies. There are also a large number of people who don''t mind being identified at all. Seeing the cobra logo with a pipe dangling from his arm, he didn''t pay much attention to it, and replied casually in Italian: "Yes, buddy, but where did you look, I didn''t see anything I like, so, sorry. " This person obviously relaxed when he heard that Fang Lang could communicate in Italian. Obviously, English was still a language he had just learned, and it was not easy to use. also replied in Italian: "Haha. Brother, I didn''t expect you to speak Italian. That''s really great. If you want to change your watch, I think you have to look at my collection." As he spoke, he lifted his left arm directly, revealing Seven or eight watches with a full arm. Looking at the man''s wristwatch full of arms, he couldn''t help being taken aback, and couldn''t help being interested, so he stepped forward and looked at it. One of the watches with a stainless steel case caught Fang Lang''s attention. The man obviously noticed Fang Lang''s gaze, took off the watch with a stainless steel case, and handed it to Fang Lang, saying: "Brother, this is a high-end watch taken from a German general. How about you?" have a look." Fang Lang took the watch in his hand and observed it carefully, and recognized at a glance that the watch was a Patek Philippe 15.18 perpetual calendar watch, and it was made of stainless steel. This is a rare item. "Sorry, I don''t know much about the brand of the watch. May I know what brand it is? He is really beautiful." Fang Lang asked pretending not to know the brand of this watch. In this era, advertisements can only be advertised in newspapers and radio, so the transmission of information is far from developed, and the current Patek Philippe is far from becoming the top luxury brand of later generations, but only circulated among some top aristocratic royal families. "Uh! I don''t know this either, but believe me this watch was really taken from a German general." Fang Lang''s question poured cold water on the man''s idea of ??raising the price . "Okay then, may I know how much you are going to sell me?" Seeing that the Italian didn''t even know the brand, Fang Lang was overjoyed, knowing that he might miss something today, and said calmly . "How much? No, I don''t want money!" The Italian was very happy to hear that Fang Lang wanted this watch, but when he heard that he wanted to spend money to buy it, he directly refused. (end of this chapter) Chapter 5: money Chapter 5 Money "No money?" Fang Lang couldn''t help being taken aback by the seller''s statement, what do you want if you don''t need money for selling things. Quickly asked: "Then what do you want?" "Cigarettes, are you here for the first time? Now the Italian lira is the same as waste paper, so I don''t charge lira." The Italian looked at Fang Lang and said seriously. "Why cigarettes? Isn''t it okay to use US dollars?" Fang Lang was very puzzled, and he never thought that he would use cigarettes to shop. "U.S. dollars are not bad, but in our army, cigarettes are stronger than U.S. dollars. If you give me dollars and I want to buy cigarettes, it will be difficult to buy them." It took Fang Lang a while to realize what the Italian said. It turns out that there is still such a game. "Aren''t cigarettes distributed directly? Why do you still have to buy them?" According to Fang Lang''s knowledge, the US military''s logistics supplies are sufficient, and each soldier has a fixed cigarette quota every month. Normally, there should be no shortage of cigarettes. Yup! Why are cigarettes now a stronger currency than the U.S. dollar in the black market? "It''s true that cigarettes are allotted, but one month''s quota, in a high-intensity battlefield, will be smoked in three days. If you want to smoke again, you have to wait for the next month''s quota or buy it. So, you understand! "What the Italian said was like clearing the fog to let Fang Lang see the golden light. Cigarettes were spread from Indians, and Brazil happens to be the main tobacco growing area. Although local cigarettes in Brazil have not formed a big brand now, there are many small-scale cigarette factories, such as Fang Lang''s uncle Yang Even the family runs a small workshop-style cigarette factory. Fang Lang, who was still thinking about how to purchase goods and sell them in the United States to make money, suddenly discovered the New World. Quickly asked again: "Dude, is it only you Italians who trade in cigarettes, or everyone trades in cigarettes. Do you look at the brand?" Because Fang Lang doesn''t smoke, he really didn''t expect that cigarettes had become a hard currency in the army. Then the cigarettes that I used to ration in the Brazilian expeditionary force were directly embezzled by the chief? I feel that I have lost a hundred million, and my heart hurts. "Of course everyone trades in cigarettes! Including the Germans. As for the brand, it''s not very important. Of course, the most popular cigarettes in the market are Lucky Strike cigarettes from the United States. It seems that you don''t understand the market at all! You don''t have any cigarettes on hand." Right? Then how much dollars are you willing to pay for this watch?" The Italian obviously felt that Fang Lang had strayed too far from the subject, and wanted to bring the topic back to the watch transaction. Seeing that the Italian didn''t want to continue to popularize market information for Fang Lang, Fang Lang was not annoyed, but whispered in his ear: "Brother, I am a crew member on a US Navy transport ship. I just arrived in Italy, so I don''t know much about it." Understand the market, but I will often travel between the United States and Italy in the future. Do you understand what I mean?" When the Italian heard Fang Lang''s words, a bright golden light burst into his eyes. Scanning the people around him left and right, seeing that no one noticed the two of them, he lowered his voice, pointed to Fang Lang''s armband and said, "Brother, this is not the symbol of the US Navy." "Hey. Yes, I am the Brazilian Expeditionary Navy, but we are under the command of the Fourth Fleet of the U.S. Navy, and I happen to be an officer of the Navy Logistics Department, so..." Fang Lang wanted to convince the Italian that he had the ability to get enough Cigarettes, had to reveal a little bit of their identity. The eyes of the Italian began to glow green, and he whispered to the other party: "Brother, how about we chat in another place?" Fang Lang knows what the Italians think, and he doesn''t want to make him feel that he can monopolize his own channel, and he must put enough pressure on him in exchange for more benefits. "Brother, let''s continue to talk about the price of this watch! I really don''t have any cigarettes in my hand now, I don''t know how much you want to sell it to me." The tone of the two words now is deliberately emphasized, so that the Italian He clearly understood what Fang Lang wanted to express. "Brother, the watch is a small problem. If you can bring a lot of cigarettes, what does it matter if this watch is given to you?" The Italians are very honest, and they are obviously big business people. "You''d better tell me how many cigarettes this watch is worth!" Fang Lang is also the one who doesn''t see rabbits or hawks, and continues to hang on to this Italian man. "Brother, you want to know how much a pack of cigarettes is worth in US dollars, right? Don''t try, I want to be a long-term business partner with you, and I will never deceive you about this kind of thing!" The Italian said directly and honestly. Fang Lang didn''t realize it all at once. He was used to the character of the Chinese in his previous life, and he wanted to test the bottom line repeatedly with this Italian, but he didn''t expect that he wouldn''t play around with you at all. "Okay! Dude, let''s all be honest. I''ll definitely check with other people. So can you tell me, how much is a pack of cigarettes worth in your place?" Now that someone else has already opened the window, Fang Lang no longer beat around the bush. "Brother, if you have cigarettes to sell to me, I will buy them at the price of five dollars a pack. Of course, the price will also follow the market, but I believe that the price will definitely become more and more expensive. I believe that the whole of Naples should not Someone can offer a higher price than me." The Italian said with confidence. This price did exceed Fang Lang''s expectations. You must know that the US dollar in this era has not been depreciated indiscriminately in later generations, and its purchasing power is quite strong. The current one US dollar can definitely be regarded as the currency value of one thousand yuan in two thousand years , because one dollar is now approximately equal to one gram of gold. If Fang Lang remembers correctly, the price of a pack of cigarettes in the United States is almost 20 cents, so if the cigarettes are shipped from the United States to Europe, the price will directly increase by 25 times. Is there a more profitable business than this? Fang Lang didn''t dare to calculate, if it was purchased from Brazil''s own cigarette factory, how many times the profit would be shipped. "Brother, your offer is really attractive to me. I think I know what to bring when I come back from the United States. I don''t know how much you can eat." Fang Lang calculated his capital, five hundred dollars can be If you buy 2,500 packs of cigarettes and sell them to him at a price of five dollars a pack, you can turn them into $12,500. Then you can use this money to buy 62,500 packs of cigarettes worth thirty dollars in the United States. Twelve thousand and five hundred yuan. This business is definitely worth Fang Lang''s hard work. You must know that in the United States now, a car only costs about a thousand dollars, and if Fang Lang makes two trips, he can turn the money that is not enough to buy a car into enough to buy three cars. The price of more than a hundred cars. Logically speaking, such a good business shouldn''t be his turn to discover it! "I don''t have many dollars in my hand, but my uncle has absolutely sufficient funds, and it is absolutely no problem to raise tens of thousands of dollars." In this era, tens of thousands of dollars is really a big boss, so the tens of thousands of dollars of the Italians, Definitely have the confidence to say that the funds are sufficient. "To be honest, the profit in the middle is huge, aren''t there other businessmen doing it?" Fang Lang didn''t believe that no one else had discovered such a good business opportunity. "Of course someone has already started to do it, otherwise how would the price be set! Are you wondering why no one directly ships the whole ship to this side?" the Italian asked with a smile in Fang Lang''s heart question. Before Fang Lang could answer, he answered by himself: "Do you think the German submarines at sea are vegetarian now? Except for the fleet protected by the **** fleet, the risks borne by other civilian merchant ships for a trip do not have this price Earnings, who would want it! Those with the protection of the **** fleet are transporting strategic materials, so they wont do business with you! In fact, the time when cigarettes can be used as cash also started when the Yankees landed and counterattacked. It only takes more than four months. It takes time for large merchants to prepare their fleets. As far as I know, some merchants have ventured out and never returned. This has caused the price of cigarettes to become stronger. (end of this chapter) Chapter 6: mafia Chapter 6 Mafia After hearing the analysis from the Italians, Fang Lang finally understood why there was such a huge price difference. It seems that he has to take advantage of the big capitalists and start to enter this market on a large scale and complete capital accumulation as soon as possible. "Brother, shall I bring the goods here to find you next time? I know that I will have the goods in my hands next time I come here, so I don''t have to worry about whether I can sell them, but since you reminded me of this I will not abandon you to make a fortune. Unless you harm my interests. Do you understand?" Fang Lang wondered if the Italian would have gone to the battlefield when he came next time, although he was not You must sell the cigarettes to him, but since he pointed out this way of making money for himself, it is not Fang Lang''s style to throw him away, so it is better to ask clearly. "Brother, you are very interesting. You are right. I may be transferred with the army when you come next time, but it doesn''t matter. I will take you to meet my uncle now. Next time you come to Italy, go directly to him My uncle can do it. Believe me, no matter how much you bring, we will be able to eat it." After finishing speaking, he began to pack his own stall. Fang Lang couldn''t help admiring the Italian''s busy style of doing things. He looked at the watch in his hand. Although he found a big business of reselling cigarettes, Fang Lang didn''t want to give up this watch, so he might as well just give it to someone generously. The price is high, let the other party earn a little first, and later when talking about the cigarette business, they will not feel that they are in debt. One yard is worth one yard, so he said: "Dude, I bought this watch! You make a price, I Not counter-offer." "Haha. Brother, let me introduce you to my uncle first. If our business can be negotiated, then this watch will be a gift for me to make new friends." Italians are obviously more interested in cigarette business now, so they don''t I am concerned about the value of this small watch. If I can use this watch and hand it over to a channel that can provide cigarettes for a long time, it will definitely be worth the money. "It''s my honor to be able to visit your uncle. My name is Fang Lang. I don''t know what to call my brother." Seeing that the other party was unwilling to entangle too much about the watch, Fang Lang stopped talking. Now that he has decided to meet his uncle and maintain a long-term cooperation, Fang Lang decided to tell him his real name. "Carlo Gambino, you can call me Carlo. I believe everyone will become brothers soon. I wonder if I can call you Fang." Fang Lang really wanted to tell Carlo that the Chinese name should be Lang, But thinking about how frivolous it would be if you called it a wave, forget it. "Of course, Carlo, I believe we will become good brothers soon. I don''t know what gift I should give when visiting your uncle." Fang Lang knows that Italians like to give each other gifts when they meet, since they are visiting an elder , then Fang Lang must have basic courtesy. "Fang, it seems that you understand Italians very well. My uncle likes wine, so we can just bring a bottle of wine." Italians never mind the value of gifts, and they often look at preferences and needs, while Carlo''s uncle Obviously there is no shortage of gifts, so Carlo directly suggested. Soon Fang Lang followed Carlo to his uncle''s apartment. A young man in a suit opened the door. Seeing Carlo coming, he enthusiastically held Carlo''s hand and gave him a hug, and exchanged words with him. Touch cheeks. "Haha Carlo, why is my good brother coming to visit us at home today when he is free?" "Hey! Nino, long time no see. The main purpose today is to bring a friend over to introduce to my uncle." Fang Lang, who was behind him after speaking, introduced: "This is the brother Fang Lang I met today. You can call him Fang. We want to introduce a big business to uncle. I don''t know if he is here." Nino looked at Fang Lang, and seeing him holding a bottle of wine in his hand, he stretched out his right hand enthusiastically and said, "Fang, hello, I''m Nino Gambino, Carlo''s cousin, nice to meet you. " Fang Lang also extended his right hand to shake hands with Nino: "Nice to meet you, Nino. This is the first time I visited home, and I brought a little gift, I hope you like it." He said and handed over the wine in his hand. "Haha Fang, I like your gift very much. I believe my father will like it too. Please come in." Then he welcomed Fang Lang into the room. Italians like to open gifts in person and express their gratitude , They feel that this is respect for the guests. This kind of etiquette was also learned by Fang Lang in modern society, and he never thought that he would have the opportunity to use it today. Soon everyone entered the room and greeted the family members one by one. In the end, only Uncle Carlo and his son, Fang Lang and Carlo sat in the living room together. Carlo''s uncle Bojan Gambino listened to Carlo After the introduction, it is obvious that he is very interested in this business. "Fang, I don''t know how many cigarettes you can provide." Boyan Gambino said straight to the point. "Mr. Gambino, now I have limited funds, so the first transaction may not be very large, which is about 10,000 US dollars. But in two months, I can provide several million US dollars worth of goods. I dont know if you can eat it. Fang Lang is very confident that he will become the captain of a Brazilian navy transport ship after returning from the United States, and the number of cigarettes he brings back from a trip to Brazil will definitely be quite amazing. Several people were taken aback when they heard Fang Lang''s answer. They didn''t expect that he could provide such a large amount of goods. They all knew that cigarettes were very profitable, but they were surprised that Fang Lang could deliver such a large amount of cigarettes. Fang Lang didn''t want to explain his identity too much, but just gave a few people a confident smile. But such a large amount obviously exceeded their share of what they could eat. "Mr. Fang, please rest assured that we can eat the first two times by ourselves. If there is really such a large amount in the future, please rest assured, sir, we will use the power of our entire family and will never let our partners down. "Bojan Gambino assured Fang Lang firmly. "Mr. Gambino, I don''t know who your family is?" From the moment Fang Lang entered the room, he found that the behavior of several people was obviously not like a serious businessman, but had a strong gangster temperament, but according to Fang Lang Lang knew that the Italian Mafia during World War II was severely cleaned up by Mussolini, which made Fang Lang not sure, so he tentatively said. Looking at Fang Lang''s expression, several people knew what Fang Lang was thinking, because everyone on earth knew that, apart from the army that likes to surrender, Italy''s most well-known specialty is the Mafia. The eyes of several people were all on the old man, Bojan Gambino. Obviously Nino and Carlo were asking if they wanted to disclose it to Fang Lang, but Fang Lang was waiting for his answer. I saw the old man staring directly at Fang Lang''s eyes and nodded slightly: "We will become real brothers, won''t we?" Fang Lang knew that the current mafia might still be the target of the Italian government, so when he saw the old man nodding instead of admitting it, he understood what he meant. Fang Lang doesn''t mind the identity of the other party, and the identity of the mafia is nothing to be afraid of. His identity is a soldier. I believe they dare not do excessive things to him. As for the future, he can also support a Chinese gangster! Thinking of this, Fang Lang didn''t say much, stood up and stretched out his right hand and said: "Of course I believe we will become very close brothers. It is an honor to meet you, Mr. Gambino." The old man was also very happy to hear Fang Lang''s answer. He stood up, stretched out his hand to hold Fang Lang''s hand, gave him a hug, and made a face-to-face gift. He laughed and said, "Haha. We are already the closest brothers Isn''t it?" Carlo and Nino, watching the two embrace each other, their tense bodies finally relaxed. Also stood up and shook hands with Fang Lang again. (end of this chapter) Chapter 7: pull investment Chapter 7 Investment Pulling When Fang Lang returned to the Charles Jose, Captain Cross looked at Fang Lang who returned empty-handed with a look of surprise and asked: "Hey! Fang, why did you come back empty-handed?" Of course Fang Lang didn''t return empty-handed, he had an extra Patek Philippe''s first-generation perpetual calendar watch on his wrist. For this watch alone, Fang Lang''s impression is that there are only four pieces in the world, and the auction price reached more than 70 million. This is what Carlo must give Fang Lang as a gift. At Carlo''s suggestion, Fang Lang bought two Ruger P08 pistols for fifty dollars, because according to Carlo''s knowledge, the Ruger P08 pistols are very popular in the American collectibles market, but the specific value depends on him. It''s not clear, Fang Lang accepted his suggestion after thinking twice. Not to mention an extra source of wealth. "Mr. Captain, I was on the streets of Italy. Apart from pizzerias and pasta shops, I really don''t know what to bring to the United States." After finishing speaking, he shrugged and looked at Captain Cross helplessly. "Haha Fang, haven''t you discovered the beauties that are specialties on the streets of Italy?" Captain Cross started joking with Fang Lang between men. "Mr. Captain, I haven''t noticed the difference between Italian girls and American girls yet, I think I need your personal demonstration and guidance." Obviously, women are always the most attractive among men''s topics, and Fang Lang didn''t need to answer. The crew around him began to talk about the difference between Italian beauties and American beauties. The atmosphere was so enthusiastic, which made Fang Lang blend in. The speed of the team is fast. In this way, time passed quickly, and there was nothing to say all night. Early the next morning, before the sky was fully lit, the Victory Wheel of Charles Joss set sail, and Fang Lang also started his voyage life again after his rebirth. Captain Cross originally thought that the young Fang Lang was suspected of bragging when he said that he was competent for the shipping work of large ocean-going ships. However, when the first officer took Fang Lang with him, he became familiar with the location of the equipment on board and how to use it. Fang Lang''s performance surprised all the sailors on the ship. He was almost competent for any role on the ship, as if he had rich working experience for every position. This made Captain Cross very satisfied and felt that he had finally found his kind. Because in this era of European and American countries, captains do not need to be the same as modern China. They have to start from the grassroots sailors step by step, and have to take exams one by one before they can finally take the captain qualification exam. After receiving a major in navigation at the nautical school, boarding a ship is a management position. As the chief engineer of an ocean-going container ship in modern society, Fang Lang has a captain''s qualification certificate and needs to take turns when the captain is resting. Captain Cross is an exception, because he is a black man. Even if you are better than a white man in American society, you cannot enjoy the same treatment as a white man. Therefore, he also started from the most basic sailor, and finally passed his own Hard work, coupled with the shortage of captains during World War II, has the opportunity to become a rare black captain. This made Cross like Fang Lang very much. Although he was traveling with the **** fleet, he had no chance to choose the route independently, but when the two were discussing, Fang Lang had a very rich reserve of navigation knowledge, seasons, climate, ocean currents, and weather. There is a lot of geography knowledge that even Cross has never heard of. I am also very proficient in the use of navigation equipment on board. The sextant, compass, radio compass, and astronomical clock are all ready to use. The measured route, longitude and latitude are very accurate. Fang Lang''s sailing skills were unanimously recognized by the crew on board, and he was directly assigned to be on duty after passing through the Strait of Gibraltar. In fact, Fang Lang also has unfamiliar equipment, such as anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-submarine guns on board. As long as there is a chance, Fang Lang will go to maintain these guns and artillery with the soldiers. After all, this is a man''s romance. I don''t know if the **** fleet is too large, or because the Germans know that this is an empty ship returning to the United States, and it has no attack value, so after fifteen days of sailing, Fang Lang did not encounter the attack of the German Navy submarine force. Arrived in New York, the largest port city on the east coast of the United States. During this period, the New York port was basically crowded with the Liberty and Victory ships traveling to and from Europe, and there were no free berths to berth other merchant ships, so basically American soldiers were seen at the port. Now because it is a time of war, in order to pursue the efficiency of loading ships, there are basically three shifts. The loading and unloading work in the port is basically in a state of people resting and equipment, so the efficiency is very high. Originally, based on Fang Lang''s understanding of bulk carriers like the Victory Ship, it would take about ten days to fill a 7,000-ton Victory Ship. As a result, Captain Cross told Fang Lang that they were loading and unloading materials and overhauling the ship in New York. The time was only three short days. In fact, Fang Lang has been observing Captain Cross and the others on the boat. After getting along for nearly half a month, Fang Lang feels that Captain Cross and others are trustworthy. After careful consideration, in order to maximize the benefits and expand the quantity of his single purchase, he still decided to bring all the crew members into his plan, and of course he would not tell everything. Just before the ship was about to dock, Fang Lang found Captain Cross and said seriously: "Mr. Captain, I wonder if we can talk alone!" Cross looked at this outstanding young man, picked up the pipe in his hand and took a light puff, then nodded and said, "Of course, Fang, you can talk to me anytime you have anything on your mind." Although he didn''t know what Captain Cross was thinking, Fang Lang knew that he must have misunderstood something, but he didn''t care. "Mr. Captain, after half a month of getting along, I am very grateful that you have not treated me as an outsider at all. In order to thank you for your care during this time, I have a small business, which may allow you to make a small fortune. I don''t know if you are interested." Hearing that Fang Lang could make everyone a small fortune, his heart moved, and he said with a smile on his face: "Fang, of course we will not refuse things that can make us rich. I don''t know if we can talk about what we are doing specifically. Things that violate military discipline are not acceptable." , everything else is fine." "I don''t know if it is a violation of military discipline to carry some personal items on board?" Fang Lang''s answer made Captain Cross feel relieved. Seeing that this kid was about to dock, he suddenly wanted to chat with himself mysteriously. He thought he was going to do something illegal and criminal! The result is trying to smuggle some goods. I think American soldiers can do things like transporting drugs with military planes. You use the boat to carry some personal items, and you still make it so mysterious and scary. "Of course there is no problem, you can bring as much as you want, but what do you mean by bringing us to make a fortune together!" "I have a source of income in my hand. Now invest a hundred dollars. I will purchase the goods and help transport them to Italy for processing. I will guarantee you three times the profit. I don''t know if you are interested." Fang Lang will not tell the real profit The less people they know about this lucrative business, the better. Hearing Fang Lang say that there are three times the profit, Cross''s eyes widened. Not every business has such a high profit. "Fang, are you serious?" Cross said seriously. "Of course, you don''t have to worry about anything. If you invest in me, I will purchase it, and you will help me transport it. I will sell it and guarantee three times the profit, which is not enough for me. If this time goes well, you will help me purchase it in the future and ship it to the destination. Hey, I''ll pay you three times the price, how about it?" Fang Lang also looked directly into Cross''s eyes and said seriously. Some people may think, dont these crew members themselves know the price of cigarettes on the battlefield! Why not buy it yourself and sell it yourself? In fact, the main market for cigarettes is in the front-line battlefield. The crew of the navy''s transport fleet basically have no time to stay in the war zone, and they are constantly transferring supplies back and forth. For the short stay in the war zone, most American soldiers will go to women. After all, in the war years, soldiers put their heads on their belts, and they would earn money if they lived an extra day. So, in this situation There are not many people who can think about making money. However, there will definitely be some black market merchants who will find these crew members to buy cigarettes, but merchants want to make money and will not let these soldiers earn too much, so Fang Lang promises that the triple profit will definitely allow all crew members to participate. (end of this chapter) Chapter 8: Chinatown Chapter 8 Chinatown "Can everyone participate?" If there is an investment project that can bring three times the profits for the entire ship, but Cross rejects it, then once the crew knows about it, Cross may no longer be able to command Move the crew. "Of course, this is to thank everyone for taking care of me! As long as everyone on our ship can invest, I will register how much each person invested, and after the goods are handed over at the port, they will directly return three times the investment. I also Only accept investment from our crew, do you understand what I mean?" Of course, Fang Lang hopes that the more people who invest, the better, and the larger the amount, the better, but if this is said by himself, others may doubt whether it will would be a scam. So Fang Lang deliberately guided, making Cross feel that this opportunity is very precious, and he took everyone to make a fortune just to thank the crew for their care. "What if my friend is also interested?" Cross obviously thought of a way to expand his income. "Sorry, I only accept investment from our crew. As for the amount of investment from the crew, it depends on the individual''s own financial situation." Fang Lang is also worried that if there is too much investment, there will not be enough place to store the purchased cigarettes. Because the amount of cargo on board is uniformly planned by the naval logistics department, rather than the ship itself. "Fang, thank you! I understand, I will call all the crew to inform everyone of the good news." Captain Cross obviously fully understood Fang Lang''s thoughts. Soon the good news spread on the ship, everyone was very excited, and people kept coming to ask Fang Lang if there was really such a good thing. Fang Lang also gave affirmative answers one by one, because many people said that they did not have so much cash on them, and hoped that Fang Lang could give them time to raise funds. In the end, Fang Lang agreed to extend the investment deadline to after arriving in Hong Kong It took 24 hours for everyone to leave contentedly. Originally, after the ship docked, because the ship had to load and unload cargo and overhaul the ship, all people could only take one day off in rotation, but everyone considered Fang Lang''s big business needs to operate, so they agreed that Fang Lang would not be on duty. At the same time, considering that everyone has the need to raise funds, the entire crew will be divided into two groups on the first day and go ashore in turn to raise funds for half a day. After the Charles Joss docked, Fang Lang and the first crew members who disembarked couldn''t wait to rush into New York City. Although New York in this era is not as prosperous as later generations, it is already one of the few metropolises in this era. Walking on the street full of people, Fang Lang felt a sense of alienation traveling through time and space. He stood in the middle of the road and watched the flow of people passing by. After a long while, Fang Lang yelled fiercely: "New York, here I come . Scared passers-by thought it was crazy, and hid far away. The performance of the people around him had no effect on Fang Lang at all. Fang Lang laughed like a madman and ran wildly in the middle of the street, venting the emotions that had been suppressed in his heart since crossing. It wasn''t until two policemen stepped forward to block the way that Fang Lang recovered. Fortunately, the police saw that the military uniform on his body was that of the US military. Although they didn''t know which army his armband belonged to, they didn''t make things difficult for him. As a Chinese, since arriving in New York, the first place I can think of is Chinatown. So Fang Lang came directly to Chinatown. The first thing he had to do was to find a way to sell the two Luger P08s in his hand in exchange for funds. Although he believes that he can raise a lot of funds from the crew, the more his own funds, the better. While he was still blindly looking for sales channels in Chinatown, a young Chinese man in a slightly worn-out gray plaid suit stepped forward and greeted Fang Lang. "Hey! Sir, is this your first visit to Chinatown?" Wan Chongxin had already seen from a distance that this Chinese man in military uniform had been walking aimlessly in Chinatown for a long time, and it was obviously his first time here. Chinatown. And as a dentist (that is, an intermediary) who has just entered the industry, this is obviously his target customer. Although several colleagues have seen this client and did not come forward to say hello, Wan Chongxin understands that everyone has consideration for being a soldier, but as a newcomer in the industry, if he can''t seize this opportunity, maybe tomorrow he and his sister He was on the verge of starvation, so he finally mustered up the courage to approach him. Listening to the mandarin with an obvious Hokkien accent talking to him, Fang Lang felt an unreasonable sense of intimacy, and finally heard the familiar mandarin again. "That''s right, it''s my first time in New York." Although everyone is Chinese, not all of them have tears in their eyes when they meet fellow villagers outside. So Fang Lang still maintained a certain degree of precaution, and just answered lightly. "Sir, don''t worry, I''m not a bad person, I''m an intermediary, that is, the original dental office. I saw that you seemed to be here for the first time, so I don''t know if there is anything I can help you with." Looking at Fang Lang obviously With vigilant eyes, Wan Chongxin quickly explained. Hearing that it was an intermediary, Fang Lang nodded and smiled and said: "I really need some help, I don''t know how you charge." "It depends on what kind of service you need. If you just need someone to show you the way, you can just give ten cents. If you need to rent a house or do business, we will draw a commission according to the amount." Wan Chong When I believed that Fang Lang really needed help, the stone in my heart fell to the ground, and the living expenses of myself and my sister were settled tomorrow. Looking carefully at the young man in front of him, both his accent and appearance proved his Chinese identity. He was wearing an old gray plaid suit whose original color could not be seen clearly, and the frayed cuffs showed that the young man''s family in front of him The conditions were not very good, and the thin clothes he wore in the cold season, as well as his slightly unconfident expression, also showed that he was not a successful businessman. Fang Lang didn''t mind helping a group of fellow villagers from other countries. He said: "I have two German Luger pistols in my hand. I heard from my American comrades-in-arms that this kind of thing can be sold at a good price in the United States. If you can help me find a high-quality buyer, you How much is the handling fee?" "Sir, if it''s a business, we usually charge 1% of the transaction amount. But you are a soldier, and the spoils you get on the battlefield are in exchange for your life. I will take 0.5%. Do you think it''s okay?" ?I guarantee that the buyer I found for you is not a middleman and can give you a satisfactory price. You can go to the street and ask a few people on the street for the points of the handling fee, and there will never be a lower offer than mine. " If Fang Lang goes to find a buyer by himself, I believe he can find it, but it will definitely take longer, but Fang Lang''s time is very tight now, and he has no time to waste looking for a buyer. In addition, Fang Lang also felt that the quotation was not too high, so he nodded slightly and said, "Okay, if you can satisfy me this time, I don''t mind introducing you to a bigger business." Wan Chongxin was overjoyed when he saw Fang Lang nodded in agreement. If he wanted him to introduce a buyer of other commodities, he might not be able to do it. However, for the collection of arms and weapons, he happened to know a very powerful buyer. "Thank you for your trust, I will take you there now, please follow me." Wan Chongxin led Fang Lang out of Chinatown while speaking. On the way, I didnt forget to introduce the buyer to Fang Lang. It turned out that the arms collector he knew was the father of his sister Wan Xin, a veteran of World War I, and now he runs a taxi shop with great strength. Small. According to my sister and him, this person offered a reward of fifty dollars for finding a Luger P08 artillery pistol. Her classmates also searched for it on his fathers birthday, hoping to give it to his father as a birthday present. Unfortunately, It has never been found. Now Fang Lang''s arrival is a match made in heaven, although I don''t know if the Luger P08 in Fang Lang''s hand is an artillery model. But at least it''s an authentic Luger P08 isn''t it? (end of this chapter) Chapter 9: selling guns Chapter 9 Selling Guns "Mr. Valentine, this is the seller I am talking about, Mr. Fang Lang Fang, a soldier who has just returned from the European battlefield. You can call him Fang." Wan Chongxin took Fang Lang to the outside of Chinatown, where he was found in a luxury apartment He saw Mr. Stellan Valentine in front of him. After Wan Chongxin''s explanation, Mr. Valentine enthusiastically welcomed the two into the living room of the bedroom. Fang Lang could tell from Mr. Valentine''s surprised expression that this was indeed a collector of goods. "Mr. Fang, thank you for standing up when the world needs you. You can call me Valentine." Valentine warmly reached out to shake hands with Fang Lang, and expressed his identity as a soldier of Fang Lang''s Allied Army gratitude. It''s a pity that Fang Lang is not keen on the so-called standing up when the world needs it. It is not his wish to fight the Germans in Europe. It would be more or less the same if he could fight Little Japan to the death in the Asian battlefield. So Fang Lang didn''t want to have too much communication with this World War I veteran on this topic, he just wanted to quickly end the transaction and hurry up to start his subsequent plans. So after shaking hands, he took out two Luger P08s wrapped in holsters in his backpack, put them on the coffee table and said, "Mr. Valentine, hello, nice to meet you. This is me You can appreciate the two Ruger P08s that you finally got. I hope you will be satisfied!" Valentin didn''t mind Fang Lang''s directness, his gaze had already been deeply attracted by the two pistols on the table. Hands touched the leather holster like stroking the delicate skin of a lover, Fang Lang and Wan Chongxin sat quietly aside, waiting for the buyer to inspect the goods. Obviously Valentine really likes the Ruger P08. He held two pistols in his hand, played with them over and over again, disassembled them and assembled them. After a while, he put the gun back on the table and said, "Fang, I believe Wan has already told you that I once offered a reward for the Luger P08, so I really like these two pistols. I don''t know how much your quotation is?" "Mr. Valentine, I''m really sorry, because I don''t know much about collections, so I can''t give an accurate quotation, but you can tell me a price, and if I think it''s suitable, we''ll make a deal. Do you think it''s okay?" Fang Lang was telling the truth. He really didn''t know the value of this pistol, and he bought it at the strong suggestion of Carlo Gambino. However, he is not completely unfamiliar with price negotiations. He can use Valentine''s quotation to test his inner price, as long as it is not too far from his expectations. He prefers to spend his time on purchasing cigarettes. "Fang, how about this! I learned that the price of the standard Luger P08 on the market is about five hundred dollars. If you want, how about I buy your two Luger pistols for $1,200? This is two hundred dollars higher than the market price, and no one should be able to offer a higher price than me." Valentine thought for a while before opening his mouth. "Mr. Valentine, you also said that five hundred dollars is the standard price, but are you sure you have seen my two pistols clearly? Mine is not the standard one!" If Fang Lang is really in The ones seized on the battlefield may have been fooled by Valentine. Unfortunately, Fang Lang bought these two pistols for fifty dollars on the black market. There are still a lot of Luger P08 standard models on the black market. But it was cheaper than the two he bought, so Fang Lang knew that Valentine thought he didn''t understand the situation and wanted to find a leak in him. "Ah! Is that so? I''ll take a closer look!" Valentine was not embarrassed to hear Fang Lang''s answer, as if he had really misjudged himself, and picked up two Luger P08s again to check. Looking at Valentine''s posture, Fang Lang knew that he didn''t want to show his hole cards directly, and wanted to grind the price with Fang Lang more, but Fang Lang didn''t want to waste time with Valentine here, so he said directly: "Wa Mr. Lundin, the long-barreled P08 on your left hand is an artillery type, and the short-barrelled P08 on your right hand is a navy type. These two Rugers are relatively rare types, especially this navy type, which should be in the United States. The market is still very rare, so I hope that all of us can openly and honestly quote the right price. If the transaction can be the best, if not, can I look for the next buyer?" "Fang, you''re right. These two Rugers are indeed different from the standard ones I''ve seen. I don''t know what the price is in your mind!" Now that Fang Lang has explained the specific situation of the gun, it is obvious that he is right about the gun I have a certain understanding of the information, so Valentine tried again. "Mr. Valentine, do you want one or both?" Fang Lang stopped talking. "If the price is right, I certainly hope that both are the best." "If you want both, my offer is three thousand dollars. I wonder if you can accept it." "Oh! My God! Your quotation is too high. No one will accept such a high price. This is just a mass-produced industrial product. Even if it has a certain collection value, it is not so high. It''s so bad." Mr. Valentine said with an unbelievable expression on his face. "Then since Mr. Valentine feels that this price is unacceptable, we have to see if there are any buyers who really know the goods. Thank you for entertaining Mr. Valentine." Seeing Valentine''s expression, Fang Lang didn''t want to talk to him. Tangled, he stood up directly, wanting to put away the pistol on the table and put it back into the backpack. Valentin, as a businessman, obviously did not encounter such an opponent who retreated without a word. He got up quickly and said, "Fang, don''t be impulsive. When we do business, we always have to discuss the price! Can we sit down and have a cup of coffee and talk again?" "Mr. Valentine, there is no need for coffee. I am not a businessman, I am a soldier. If you are really interested in the Luger in my hand, I suggest you not beat around the bush. It is best to give a price in your heart that matches its value. If If I think it''s suitable, we can make a deal directly, okay?" "Haha. Alright! As a veteran of World War I, we are all soldiers, so be straightforward. I can accept the price of two thousand dollars." "This quotation is not something that a veteran can quote, Mr. Valentine, you have already planned to spend 1,200 US dollars to acquire two standard models. But this is an artillery model and a cherished navy model." Model, I think this price is really not in line with the value of these two Rugers. I will let another two hundred dollars, this is my final reserve price, two thousand eight hundred dollars, if you can accept us, we will make a deal, if not, I will Lets see if Mr. Wan can help me find a new buyer. If it doesnt work, I can only carry my own self-defense. Fang Lang knew that Valentine quoted a thousand and two because he thought Fang Lang didn''t know the goods, so he took out this quotation again to disgust Valentine. "Fang, 2,500 US dollars. This price is definitely worthy of their value, no problem, I will pay in cash now." Valentine''s face hurts. "Mr. Valentine, as I said before, I am a soldier, and the price is 2,800 US dollars. If you can accept it, we will make a deal. Since you can''t accept it, then I can only look for the next buyer." After finishing speaking, he turned his head. Said to Wan Chong who was silent all the time: "Mr. Wan, I think you should hurry up and help me find the next buyer. I wonder if you have any qualified customers in your hands." Watching Fang Lang put the gun into his backpack, Wan Chongxin stood up quickly and said, "Mr. Fang, of course there is no problem. I can continue to take you to find another very capable buyer now." Although he wanted to make a direct deal, the two parties couldn''t reach an agreement. He could only stand on Fang Lang''s side, because the goods were in his hands. Without him, he would have no chance to get the intermediary fee. Seeing that the two of them were about to give up the business without looking back, Valentine could only say at the last moment: "Okay! Fang, you win. Although your quotation is really super high, but who called you?" I really like these two goodies! It was sold for $2,800." Fang Lang was overjoyed when he heard that Valentine finally agreed to make the deal at 2,800 US dollars, and turned his head calmly and said: "Believe me, Mr. Valentine, this deal is definitely worth the money. You won''t regret it." Seeing the two people''s hands tightly held together, Wan Chongxin let out a sigh of relief, because as a rookie who has just entered the industry, he will not be able to find so many buyers in his hands for a while, so he has already figured it out. , If you can''t close the deal, you can only share the revenue with another intermediary to find new customers. Fortunately, in the end Valentine agreed to the deal, so that he could not only get the agency fee, but also get a reward of fifty dollars from Mr. Valentine. This is a lot of money. At least one month and my sister don''t have to worry about food anymore. (end of this chapter) Chapter 10: start a company Chapter 10 Starting a Company In a Sichuan restaurant in Chinatown, Fang Lang and Wan Chongxin were feasting on the three dishes and one soup on the table. After completing the transaction, Fang Lang expressed that he would treat Wan Chongxin to a good meal. Of course Wan Chongxin would not refuse such a good deed. "Mr. Fang, you said that there is still a big business to take care of me. I don''t know if you can talk about it now!" For this transaction, Wan Chongxin directly got a sum of fourteen dollars from Fang Lang. The agency fee, plus the fifty-dollar reward offered by Mr. Valentine, totaled sixty-four dollars, which is equivalent to two months'' wages of ordinary American workers. Wan Chongxin was already very satisfied, and it would be even better if he could make another deal. "Mr. Wan, I don''t know how much income you have every month now?" Originally, Fang Lang was also considering whether to find a tobacco dealer directly and buy a batch of cigarettes directly. It is better to make this business a long-term business. If it is a long-term business, Fang Lang must ensure that there are special personnel in charge in the United States and Italy, and it is best to be able to operate as a company. Originally the biggest problem was that Fang Lang had no manpower to be in charge of business development on both sides, but this time Wan Chongxin''s performance satisfied Fang Lang, so he wanted to give him a chance. "Uh! Well! To tell you the truth, Mr. Fang, I won''t hide it from you. The deal you made for you this time is my first pot of gold. It turns out that I do some odd jobs and have no formal job, so I''m even more I don''t have a fixed income." This question made Wan Chongxin a little embarrassed, but he didn''t hide anything, he still told the truth. "Then if I set up an import and export trading company in the United States, how about you come and work for me?" "Aren''t you in the military? Do you still have time for business?" "I''m not an American soldier, what does it matter?" "If I work for you, what will I be responsible for? How much is the salary!" Wan Chongxin has no choice but to be an intermediary. If he can have a stable income, he certainly won''t mind. "You just need to help me, purchase the goods I need according to my requirements, transport them to the warehouse for storage and management, and then clear the handover with the pick-up personnel I arranged. The weekly salary is eight dollars, if you do well You will be rewarded." Wan Chongxin thought about it for a while, then nodded and agreed: "No problem! I am very happy to work for you." Hearing that Wan Chongxin agreed, Fang Lang was also very happy. This means that in the future, there will be a special person in charge of purchasing in the United States. Even if he does not come to the United States next time, Wan Chongxin can be notified after purchasing Own. Then arrange for Captain Cross and the others to help carry the goods to Italy, and set up a branch in Italy to be responsible for receiving the goods and then selling them to the Gambino family. Isn''t this a complete trade route? "Okay, then you and I will get acquainted with the tobacco market in the United States today. Tomorrow, I will set up an import and export trading company and sign a formal employment contract with you." In this way, Fang Lang, accompanied by Wan Chongxin, spent an afternoon running around the tobacco dealers in the United States, and learned that the main force selling on the market is mainly British American Tobacco''s Lucky Strike brand cigarettes, and Reynolds Tobacco Company''s Camel brand cigarettes surprised Fang Lang that Marlboro cigarettes stopped being supplied to the market for some reason. After agreeing to meet at Wan Chongxin''s home the next day, Fang Lang returned to the Charles Joss in the dark. At this time, everyone on the ship was already there, and they were loading and unloading the cargo while discussing enthusiastically. , How much money did you raise, and how much money did I borrow. Everyone greeted Fang Lang very enthusiastically when he came back, and Fang Lang responded enthusiastically one by one, and told everyone that he will collect everyone''s investment tomorrow morning, and let everyone take turns to find him at breakfast tomorrow. After getting a clear answer, everyone stopped surrounding Fang Lang. Fang Lang approached Captain Cross and asked him to discuss whether he could introduce some other captains to him. "Mr. Captain, what I mean is that if my business can succeed this time, then every time you go to and from the Atlantic Ocean, you can organize the crew to raise funds or go to the place I gave you to pick up the goods, and then I will go to Italy Arrange people at the port to receive the goods you shipped directly at three times the price, and turn this business into a long-term business, what do you think?" "Fang, of course there is no problem. You are creating income for all of us. How could we refuse?" Captain Cross stroked his beard with a smile on his face and smiled. "At that time, if you have captains of other fleets you are familiar with, you can also let them participate. My demand for the quantity of cargo is that the bigger the better." "Oh! Is it really possible? But we''d better keep a low profile on this kind of thing. If we go too far, it may attract the attention of the military police, and it will be very troublesome." Although Captain Cross was very happy, he still Fang Lang warned in a vigilant low voice. Fang Lang also kept Captain Cross'' warning in mind, and couldn''t help but think that it seems that he needs to get a little relationship with Commodore Neo Jackson, otherwise he will be very passive when he is checked. There was nothing to say all night, and the crew dragged Fang Lang out of the warm bed before dawn the next day. Fang Lang could only pick up the notebooks one by one, and recorded in detail how much each person invested. When everyone''s investment was concentrated in Fang Lang''s backpack in the end, Fang Lang was also taken aback. With his own funds, he raised 55,000 US dollars, which greatly exceeded Fang Lang''s expectations. He thought he could have Thirty thousand US dollars is already an astronomical figure. It is unexpected that these American soldiers can raise such a large amount of money. After receiving the investment, Fang Lang took his weapon, put his backpack on his back carefully, found Wan Chongxin, and went to the US company registration office together to register a company called Global Trade Import and Export Co., Ltd. Arranged Wan Chongxin to rent a warehouse near the wharf as an office and storage place. He started purchasing cigarettes non-stop again, because Fang Lang had to go out on his own to understand the market price and avoid being pocketed by the purchasing staff in the future because of the first purchase. Being so busy, he finally shipped all the goods to the warehouse the next morning. Looking at the warehouse full of cigarettes, Fang Lang began to encounter difficulties. The cigarettes are not big, but they take up space! Wouldn''t it be embarrassing if the luck didn''t go away? Fang Lang, who had no other choice, finally brought Captain Cross over to confirm the quantity of the cargo. Captain Cross was also dumbfounded at so many cigarettes. There are simply not so many places to load on the ship! Where is this entrainment! In the end, there was really no other way but to ship all the goods to the ship first and talk about it. After all, this is a business invested by the entire ship. In this way, when the Charles Joss finally set sail, almost every corner was stuffed with cigarettes, and even the crew''s lounge was stuffed with cargo. Fortunately, this is the common property of all crew members, otherwise it might be thrown into the sea by everyone halfway. Especially when crossing the Atlantic, the convoy was attacked by German Navy submarines. But generally speaking, I crossed the Atlantic Ocean and returned to Italy without any risk. On the way back, the U.S. military lost more than a dozen Victory ships, but fortunately, the Charles Jose returned to the port of Naples smoothly. (end of this chapter) Chapter 11: gift giving Chapter 11 Gift Giving When the first ray of sunshine shone into Naples, Italy in the early morning, a figure wearing a suit, top hat and wrapping himself in a scarf knocked on the door of Bojan Gambinos apartment. Nuo in the door saw through the crack of the door Fang Lang who had pulled off the scarf and revealed his face, then let go of the pistol behind his back and let Fang Lang into the room. "Dear Fang, you are finally back, please come in quickly. Why are you dressed like this today? I thought it was a spy connection. It made me very nervous." Nino Gambino joked as he opened the door . "Haha Nino, my friend." After Fang Lang took the initiative to hug Nino warmly, he walked into the room. "Dear Fang, welcome home!" Bojan Gambino also came over to hug Fang Lang, and welcomed him into the study. "Mr. Gambino, something happened this time, so I''ll come over and talk to you first." Fang Lang said straight to the point. "What? There was an accident!" Nino yelled anxiously, thinking that the business could not be done. "Nino, when will you learn to calm down! Can you let Fang finish talking?" Boyan Gambino said flatly. The Gambino family didn''t spend their capital to invest, even if something happened to them, they wouldn''t suffer any losses, so why be nervous? "Hehe. Nino! Don''t worry, it''s a good thing! There are a lot of goods coming back this time, so Mr. may have to inform other members of the family to digest them." Fang Lang smiled and didn''t mind . "Oh! I don''t know how much it is! We have raised 400,000 US dollars during this period, can''t we still eat your goods?" Boyan Gambino said calmly. It is agreed that the first time will be about 10,000 US dollars of goods, and the family has prepared more than 400,000 yuan, but they still can''t eat your goods. "Uh! I''m sorry, Mr. Gambino. At first, I didn''t think enough and only wanted to trade with only funds. However, now I have received a large investment, so the actual value of the goods this time has nearly 1.4 million, I don''t know if you can eat it yourself." This is indeed because Fang Lang didn''t make a good plan himself, and at first he only wanted to trade with his own capital. It was only later on the ship that I thought of raising funds to expand my own funds. "What! Are you sure that the goods worth 1.4 million have arrived in Hong Kong?" Bojan Gambino was also surprised when he heard the number reported by Fang Lang. Nino on the side was even more surprised, and almost jumped up. Although Fang Lang''s profit is very high, if their Gambino family transports cigarettes to the front line, they will get greater profits in exchange. Of course, they are very happy to hear that there is such a large amount. "That''s right, this time I got an investment from a big shot. In the future, we will have a steady stream of goods arriving in Naples. So, as long as you have the funds ready, we will arrange for a naval transport ship to deliver the cigarettes in batches." Ship it to Naples." Fang Lang also had to be careful when dealing with the mafia. At this time, he told the other party that there were bigger people behind him to support him. No matter what they did next, they would take it into consideration. At least they shouldn''t have to worry about being hacked. Eat black. Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Gambino and his son looked at each other, and Mr. Gambino said slowly: "Fang, I didn''t expect you to be able to attract investment from military figures. It seems that this business will grow bigger and bigger. How about it? I will immediately notify the other members of the family, and I will definitely raise a payment of 1.4 million US dollars before dark. How about our deal tonight?" "Okay, you organize the truck tonight, my big boss will get the pass, and then I will take you directly to the warehouse at the military dock to pull the goods." Although Fang Lang has not yet solved the warehouse problem, he has already thought of it How to deal with the warehouse, after all, his current identity is the logistics officer of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force Navy, although he has not yet reported to the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. After the two agreed on the specific delivery time and details, Fang Lang left Gambino''s apartment in a hurry. After changing into the military uniform, he went directly to the barracks, the office of Brigadier General Neo Jackson, the logistics chief of the US Fourth Fleet, reported. "Report to the general, Fang Lang, Ensign of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force Navy, complete the assessment, come to report!" Fang Lang stood at Commodore Jackson''s desk, waiting for Commodore Jackson to check his assessment form. Not to mention Fang Lang''s excellent ability on the ship, just because Fang Lang took Captain Cross to earn money, the score on the assessment form would not be low. "Young man, it seems that your performance is very good! Our Captain Cross has a very high opinion of you, good! That''s good, John also asked me to take good care of his benefactor. Depending on the situation, you will not You need to be taken care of! I believe that with your ability, you will be able to stand out in the army soon." Brigadier General Jackson''s attitude this time is obviously better than when we met for the first time. Obviously, the results of this assessment made Brigadier General Jackson When arranging Fang Lang''s work, there is no need to worry about other people''s gossip. This is simply discovering rare talents for the Brazilian Expeditionary Force! I don''t know what the idiots at the Brazilian Expeditionary Army''s conscription office thought, but transferred an excellent navy captain to the army infantry as a soldier. "Thank you, General, for your support! John mentioned you to me a long time ago. The last meeting was too hasty, and I caused you a lot of trouble by not coming and bringing gifts! I am really sorry! This time I found a very A gift that matches your status, I hope you like it." In order to open up the relationship with the US Navy, Fang Lang took out the Patek Philippe watch that Carlo gave him from his pocket and put it on General Jackson''s desk. Although Fang Lang himself likes this watch very much, in order to seize the time to gain a foothold in the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, he must turn Commodore Jackson into his backstage, instead of relying solely on John''s relationship to maintain a relationship with the Commodore General. Brigadier General Jackson saw Fang Lang put a watch on the table, he couldn''t help being taken aback, and wanted to refuse. As a commodore, there is no shortage of watches, but when he saw the dial of the watch, his eyes widened, his pupils shrank, and he lost his voice: "Patek Philippe 1518 perpetual calendar!" He was about to pick it up carefully Check. Soon realizing that he had lost his composure, he quickly withdrew his hand, and then forced himself to say: "Fang, what are you doing!" Seeing Commodore Jackson''s performance, Fang Lang knew that he had met someone who knew the goods. Fortunately, he didn''t meet someone who didn''t know how to do it. If he took this watch as an ordinary watch, he would be at a big loss. "Uncle Jackson, you are John''s uncle, that is, my uncle. As a junior, shouldn''t it be reasonable for me to bring a small gift to visit you?" This is a good time to get in touch, Fang Lang immediately The superior-subordinate relationship has been transformed into an uncle-nephew relationship. As long as Brigadier General Jackson accepts this watch, it is equivalent to recognizing the relationship between uncle and nephew, and many things will be easy to operate in the future. "Haha, you little guy, you are really amazing. I never thought that John would make a friend like you. Okay! Tell me, what do you want me to do for you for giving me such a precious gift!" Jackson obviously Think of this gift as a deal. But Fang Lang didn''t care. Sometimes the relationship of interests is often stronger than the relationship between uncle and nephew. As long as they can continue to bring benefits to both parties, I believe that the relationship between the two will go further soon. "Uncle Jackson, last time you said that you would arrange for me to be the captain of the Brazilian expeditionary transport ship, then I don''t know if I can buy another ship from you for transportation." Fang Lang has already called Uncle Jackson, he won''t change back easily. "That''s right, General Mascareus Di Morais, the commander of your expeditionary force, has approached me many times, hoping to have a transport ship of his own to transport the remains and trophies of the fallen soldiers of the expeditionary force back home, so , My plan is to arrange for you to be the captain." Hearing General Jackson''s plan, Fang Lang had no objection. The spoils go home. At that time, it is estimated that the possibility of loot on board will be relatively high, and the remains are estimated to be in other words. (end of this chapter) Chapter 12: buy a boat Chapter 12 Buying a Ship "Are you serious about buying another ship for transportation yourself? The current route is very dangerous. The German submarines are elusive. If there is no fleet escort, they will be sunk easily." Brigadier General Jackson heard Fang Lang think Surprised at the idea of ??buying a transport ship myself. "My plan is to move my transport ship with the **** fleet. It will be safer. I don''t know if Uncle Jackson has a suitable ship to sell to me now." Fang Lang knew that it was not impossible to buy ships outside, but Buying captured ships from Commodore Jackson would definitely be cheaper than buying them directly on the market. "Now we do have a few transport ships captured from the enemy''s hands, but the tonnage is not as large as the free ship, and the maximum load is only 5,000 tons. If you are sure to buy, I will let the following give Check it out, let me choose a suitable ship for you. But the price of the ship is not cheap! At least 50,000 US dollars will do." Brigadier General Jackson naturally had nothing to do with Fang Lang''s purchase of the transport ship in the hands of the US military No, because the crew of the US military is relatively tense, some transport ships are idle. The U.S. military did not dare to use Italian sailors. First, they were afraid that spies would sneak into the fleet to convey information about the fleet to the Germans. Second, the Italians were resistant to participating in fleets for military purposes. "Uncle Jackson is so kind, can I buy one for 50,000 dollars? Then I want three ships first, and I will pay 55,000 dollars for each ship, 50,000 of which I will pay to the US Navy Department, The other 5,000 will be paid to Mrs. Jacksons personal account by my Global Trade Import and Export Co., Ltd. in the United States in the form of consulting fees. Although a second-hand cargo ship worth 50,000 US dollars is not particularly cheap, it can be purchased through Fang Lang would not give up such a good opportunity to buy a freighter to further deepen his relationship with Commodore Jackson. Brigadier General Jackson obviously didn''t expect that Fang Lang would have such a showy operation, and he obviously didn''t know how to respond for a while. After a long while, I took a deep look at Fang Lang and said: "If you buy three ships, it will really help us reduce a lot of burdens, so let''s do it! I will lower the price to 45,000 U.S. dollars for the 5,000-ton class ship." "Thank you, Uncle Jackson, for taking care of my nephew. In this case, I will pay US$45,000 to the US Navy for each ship, and Mrs. Jackson''s consulting fee will be US$10,000. I don''t know if Uncle Jackson thinks it is appropriate. !" When Fang Lang heard Brigadier General Jackson''s answer, he obviously approved of his idea, which was much simpler, as long as Brigadier Jackson charged the consulting fee this time. Then, many things will be easy to solve in the future. "The consulting fee of 10,000 US dollars is too high, let''s use 5,000! You can''t let you suffer too much. It''s not easy for young people to start a business. I will arrange the navy to select the latest and best three ships. It will be delivered to you, and your ship will be overhauled in all aspects, and it will be handed over to you after it is filled with fuel." Commodore Jackson is obviously a good partner who can do things with money, and he is extremely considerate. Anyway, he doesn''t need to pay for these things, and the US government will pay for them. "I''m really grateful to Uncle Jackson. I wonder if my nephew can have a warehouse of my own in the Navy Warehouse. My nephew needs to store some goods, but I am worried that it will be unsafe to store them outside, so I want to rent a room in the Navy Warehouse. Warehouse, to store the goods." This kind of trivial matter is nothing to Commodore Jackson, so he arranged for Fang Lang directly: "I will notify our naval logistics to allocate an additional warehouse for your Brazilian expeditionary force later, but this warehouse will not notify you of Brazil Expeditionary Force, you personally sign for the Brazilian Expeditionary Force Navy, understand?" "Uncle Jackson, I also hope that you can continue to help my nephew keep an eye on some high-quality ships. You can rest assured that my nephew will pay for each ship at the current price. In addition, I wonder if uncle can provide five passes for our convenience. Vehicles enter and leave the barracks and carry goods." Fang Lang''s demand for ships is naturally as many as possible. After the end of World War II, the economy will recover quickly, and the United States will soon start the Marshall Plan for Europe to help Europe rebuild its economic order. Having a large-scale fleet in hand at this time will make Fang Lang a fortune. In this way, Fang Lang quickly reached a strategic partnership with Brigadier General Jackson. After leaving the office, Fang Lang went directly to the logistics storage area and received a warehouse that belonged to the Brazilian Expeditionary Force in name but actually belonged to him. More than a thousand square meters, plus the height of the warehouse is more than ten meters. Waiting for Fang Lang and the crew of the Charles Joss, when they moved all the goods into the warehouse, they failed to fill a quarter of the warehouse. When Boyan Gambino and others drove five trucks and followed Fang Lang into the military restricted area, the shock in their hearts was even more unintentional, and they did not dare to have any bad thoughts. After completing the transaction, the Gambino family directly deposited one million dollars into Fang Lang''s account at the Bank of America. The predecessor of the Bank of America was the Bank of Italy in 1904. It was renamed the Bank of America in 1929 after merging with the Bank of America in California. Therefore, it is very convenient to carry out deposit and withdrawal business in the United States and Italy. The remaining US$375,000 was delivered in cash to Fang Lang. When Fang Lang put more than 150,000 US dollars in front of the crew of the Charles Jose, the impact on the crew was unprecedented, especially the captains of several other ships invited by Captain Cross . The atmosphere reached a climax when Fang Lang returned three times the income to the crew according to the crew list and the investment amount of each one. "Brothers, thank you for your support in this business. We have achieved a complete victory. Because I have finished the assessment with the ship, I will not be able to go through life and death on the same boat with you in the future. But I will not forget the friendship with you. Friendship, and I will never forget everyone''s help to me, so I decided to share this rich channel with everyone. I don''t know if you want it or not." After Fang Lang finished dividing the profits, he started an exciting speech, of course , The purpose is to allow the crew to continue to use cigarettes for themselves. "I want, I want." Everyone yelled in unison, and the voices almost broke the deck. Fang Lang quickly pressed down with both hands, signaling everyone to keep a low profile. After everyone''s voices quieted down, he said: "I know everyone is very excited and wants to make a fortune, but I still want to make it clear to everyone. First of all, we are transporting the goods to Italy for sale through private entrainment, so Everyone should keep a low profile, and don''t attract the attention of the military police and the big bosses of the Navy Department. Second, because this kind of cargo needs to be carried at your own risk, just like this time, you all pay for it yourself. After the Italian branch of Import and Export Co., Ltd. has received the delivery certificate, it will go to the New York port office at the headquarters of New York Global Trade Import and Export Co., Ltd. to pick up the goods. All the goods will be stored in Italy, and after the inspection by Global Trading Company in the warehouse in the dock storage area, you can directly get the payment of three times the price of the goods. Do you understand?" "Understood! But we don''t know where these two companies are! Our time is very tight, but we don''t have much time to search for the addresses of these two companies!" Someone spoke soon. "This time! I will help you send the bill of lading of the Italian branch to the pier later. As for the pier office in New York, it is also easy to find. You can see it more than a hundred meters after you come out of the pier. Of course, if you If you dont even want to look for more than a hundred meters, then you can only say that you should watch your brothers get rich! Money has nothing to do with you. Everyone laughed. Now Fang Lang only needs to register a branch in Italy, and recruit good personnel, even if he has established a cigarette import and export channel from the United States to Italy. After the own fleet grows later, the company will take off rapidly. (end of this chapter) Chapter 13: meet lilith again Chapter 13 Meeting Lilith Again Fang Lang came to Commodore Jackson''s office again early the next morning. Under the leadership of Commodore Jackson''s adjutant, he signed a ship purchase contract with the U.S. Department of the Navy, and paid the $135,000 ship payment to the U.S. Department of the Navy''s account. After completing the formalities, Fang Lang returned to Brigadier General Jackson''s office again. "Fang, you need to hurry up on your private affairs. I have notified the commander of your Brazilian Expeditionary Force. We will assign a transport ship to your Brazilian Expeditionary Force. You will be the captain in charge of the route from Brazil to Italy. Your Brazilian Expeditionary Force Navy Colonel Atilio Parisi is already asking when you can go to report. I postponed it because you are still taking the training assessment of the US Navy. But they should come to you soon, So you have to hurry up." Sure enough, the interest relationship is the most reliable. After paying consulting fees to Mrs. Jackson and John''s relationship, Fang Lang and Brigadier General Jackson are now close uncles and nephews. Therefore, Jackson will directly help Fang Lang cover up many things. "Uncle Jackson, besides looking for you to get your aunt''s bank account, I just want to hurry up and finish my personal affairs. But I think there are some things that may be helpful to Uncle Jackson, so I made a special trip to find you!" "Oh! Tell me! What will help me?" Jackson was taken aback when he heard that it would help him. "That''s right, Uncle Jackson, because my global trading company wants to set up a branch in Italy, so I want you to help introduce the Italian garrison chief in Naples, and I want to recruit some company employees through his relationship. In this time of war, a stable job should be used as a favor to win over the Italians!" "Haha. You boy, if you want me to help introduce the local snake, just say it, and you can help me, so I almost believed it." Jackson saw through Fang Lang''s tricks at a glance. Fang Lang was not embarrassed either, and said to Jackson with a smile: "Uncle won''t mind, will he?" "Okay, I''m going to have dinner with the mayor of Naples at noon today, and I''ll call Lieutenant Colonel Rolando Crespo to meet you." Jackson said without hesitation. During such a lunch time, Fang Lang met the mayor of Naples and Lieutenant Colonel Rolando Crespo, the chief of the Naples garrison in Italy. He didn''t say too many specific things at the dinner table. General Jackson just introduced Fang Lang and said that this is one of his juniors who is now serving in the Naval Logistics Department of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. After the meal, Fang Lang visited the mayor of Naples and Lieutenant Colonel Rolando Crespo respectively. With the help of the two, he bought a house not far from Naples Naval Port for US$40,000 as a global trading house. Office building of the Italian branch. With the personal participation of Mr. Mayor, the company registration was completed, and the office staff released the employment information to various talent markets, and agreed to recruit personnel in the new office building tomorrow morning. However, for the person in charge of the company, Fang Lang must find someone he trusts. Fortunately, Fang Lang will not leave Naples immediately in the recent period, and there is still time to find it slowly. Just after Fang Lang had dinner with the mayor and the lieutenant colonel, he was walking drunk on the way back to the barracks, feeling the cold wind in Naples in winter, a familiar voice called Fang Lang: "Fang, is that you?" ? Fang Lang turned his head and saw that it was the little nurse Lilith who was taking care of him in the Naval Hospital. Fang Lang was also surprised that he would meet this beautiful little **** the streets of Italy after being discharged from the hospital. "Wow! Dear Miss Lilith, am I dreaming? Or did I meet an angel." Fang Lang joked pretending to be a hooligan. "Fang, stop teasing me. Why are you wandering the streets of Naples drunk? Shouldn''t you have returned to the front line to fight?" Lilith blushed and said with concern. In fact, Lilith''s appearance is very in line with Fang Lang''s aesthetics. She has fair and rosy skin, although she has a few small freckles like most white people, black hair, black eyes, and a tall nose bridge, which is very similar to the later movie "The Beauty of Sicily" The heroine of "Legend" is Monica Bellucci, but her personality is not as charming as in the movie, but she has the temperament of a girl next door. Xiaobing, I dare not expect to have any kind of intersection with such a girl. "Haha. Lilith, if I didn''t wander the streets of Naples drunk, how could I have the chance to meet my goddess! Dear Lilith, I don''t know if you can have a cup of coffee with me, a lost lamb who is looking for the goddess. !" Now that Fang Lang has confidence in his pocket, he doesn''t want to let go of the opportunity that came to him. "Ah! I''m afraid it won''t work. It''s dark now, so I have to go home, or my father will come out to find me." Lilith doesn''t hate Fang Lang, at least compared to the bohemian American soldiers, Fang Lang is like this The introverted and humble character of a Chinese soldier would be more pleasing. Although this guy would always tease her verbally, he would never act like other American soldiers. "In this case, I don''t know if I will have the honor to send my goddess home!" Fang Lang didn''t want to be too eager to arouse the little girl''s disgust. "My house is in front of me!" Fang Lang was taken aback by the little girl''s answer, and looked in the direction of Lilith''s finger. Unexpectedly, by such a coincidence, Lilith''s home is not far behind the office building that Fang Lang just bought. Could this be fate? Fang Lang couldn''t help thinking in his heart. "Then we have to go slowly, I want to slow down time." Lilith covered her mouth and smiled lightly: "Okay! If you are not afraid of my father teaching you, we can walk back slowly." "If my father-in-law wants to teach me a lesson, I will definitely not resist. After all, I can''t forgive the wild boy who came out of nowhere and wants to abduct the little baby I have cared for for more than ten years, can''t I?" "Ah! What are you talking about! Who is your father-in-law! I haven''t seen you for a month, why have you become so bad!" Lilith blushed under Fang Lang''s offensive. Fang Lang looked at the little girl''s shy face under the dim street lamp with the help of alcohol, and couldn''t help feeling a little crazy! Lilith didn''t get a response from Fang Lang, and found that Fang Lang''s face was like a pig brother, staring at herself obsessively, and a sweet feeling surged in her heart for no reason. His face turned even more blushing. Just as the ambiguous atmosphere between the two was heating up, an untimely voice sounded in front of them: "Lilith, is this your friend? Would you like to call me home for a cup of coffee?" Although the voice was soft, it also pulled the two of them back from the ambiguous atmosphere. Lilith was the first to react, she was taken aback, and quickly introduced with a guilty conscience: "Dad, why are you here? This is Fang Lang, my friend." When Fang Lang heard that it turned out to be the father-in-law he was talking about just now, who was still molesting someone else''s daughter just now, the parents appeared in front of him immediately, sweating from fright, and drinking a lot more sober. He quickly stood up straight, adjusted his clothes and said, "Hello, uncle, my name is Fang Lang, nice to meet you!" Lilith''s father is obviously a well-cultivated gentleman. He extended his right hand very politely and said, "Hello, nice to meet you. I am Lilith''s father, Umaru Coburn. We are all at the door How about a cup of coffee at home?" Fang Lang was of course very happy about Lilith''s father''s invitation, and he didn''t refuse. He generously agreed, "Of course uncle, this is my honor." Hearing that Fang Lang accepted her invitation calmly, Lilith''s father was a little surprised. He thought that as soon as he spoke, the young man he saw would be scared and run away! Unexpectedly, he accepted the invitation generously. This made him start to seriously look at the young man in front of him. He would never have thought that the young man in front of him, who had experienced the second life, was probably older than him in mental age, how could he run away because he flirted with a little girl and was found out by the other''s father! (end of this chapter) Chapter 14: beautiful misunderstanding Chapter 14 Beautiful Misunderstanding In Naples, Italy, the night is getting darker, and Fang Lang, who is slightly drunk, is sitting in the living room of Lilith''s house, holding the coffee made by Lilith''s mother in his hand. Lilith beside her is a little restless, and Lilith''s father and Mother, the two were looking at Fang Lang with the eyes of their son-in-law. This situation made Lilith a little overwhelmed, not understanding how things could get to this point. And the younger sister behind the door also stuck out her small head to secretly observe the weird atmosphere on the dining table. Fang Lang took a sip of coffee calmly, and said firstly, "Auntie, the coffee you make is really delicious. I hope to have the opportunity to drink such delicious coffee often in the future." After Lilith''s father heard this, his eyes froze. And Lilith''s mother had already smiled and said: "Haha. Really? Just drink it if you like it, and I will come over to drink it often when I have the opportunity. I will go to the market tomorrow to see if there is any coffee supply. Buy some and save it." , waiting for you to come and drink." Obviously Lilith''s mother admired Fang Lang''s calm demeanor very much. There is a meaning that the mother-in-law looks at the son-in-law, and the more she looks at it, the more she likes it. And Fang Lang was taken aback after hearing Lilith''s mother''s answer: "Is the supply of coffee in the market very tight now?" "That''s right! I don''t know when the war will end. Now the family''s business has closed down, and there is a shortage of everything in the market. If this continues, everyone''s life will be difficult." Lilith''s mother heard Fang Lang discussed the supply of goods on the market with her, and he also started to complain directly. Lilith''s father beside him coughed dryly and said: "Cough! Cough! Why are you talking about this in front of the child. Fang Lang, I call you Fang, don''t you mind!" "Of course, uncle can call me anything." Seeing that Lilith''s father was about to start speaking, Fang Lang quickly sat up straight and responded seriously. "I see you are wearing a military uniform, are you an American soldier?" Lilith''s father obviously didn''t recognize Fang Lang''s armband. "Uncle, I am now a second lieutenant in the Naval Logistics Department of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, and my specific job is the captain of a transport ship." Fang Lang''s answer stunned Lilith next to her and said, "Aren''t you an infantryman of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force? Why did you become the captain of the Navy''s transport?" "Hehe. Thanks to John for his help, I will take the time to tell you in detail. Anyway, now I don''t have to go directly to the front line to fight the Germans." Lilith''s father was obviously relieved when he heard that Fang Lang no longer had to fight the Germans on the front line. He muttered in a low voice: "That''s good, that''s good." Obviously, he was worried that after being with Lilith, he died in the war or returned with missing arms and legs, which would affect his future life with Lilith. They don''t know that Fang Lang and Lilith are not boyfriend and girlfriend yet! It was just a chance encounter, just happened to be seen by him. However, Fang Lang is happy to see this kind of beautiful misunderstanding. "Auntie said just now that the family''s business has closed down. I don''t know what kind of business uncle is in!" Fang Lang is looking for talents who can help him manage the Italian company. If Lilith''s father has such an experience, it would be perfect But that''s all. "A small business, mainly selling some imported machinery and equipment. With the outbreak of the war, the sea transportation was cut off, and the business could no longer continue. Now I can only eat at home. Therefore, your aunt will have some complaints. Hope Fang, you Don''t mind." Lilith''s father said with a little embarrassment. Hearing Lilith''s father''s answer, Fang Lang was overjoyed. Isn''t this just like someone giving you a pillow when you want to doze off? If Lilith''s father becomes the boss of his Italian branch, wouldn''t it be more effective for him to pursue Lilith in the future? "Oh! Then uncle doesn''t have a specific job now, does he?" Fang Lang''s words obviously made Lilith''s father turn red, a little embarrassed. Fang Lang understood that this sentence was inappropriate and quickly corrected it: "I mean, I have a job here. I don''t know if uncle is interested." Several people''s eyes lit up when they heard Fang Lang''s words, and they all looked at Fang Lang. Lilith''s mother was the first to speak: "Oh! Fang, is it true? I don''t know what kind of job it is!" "It''s like this, that is, the office building not far from your house has been bought by me, and it is going to be used as the office location of our Italian branch of Global Trading Co., Ltd. I just finished the company registration procedures today, and I am looking for a What about managers who are familiar with the situation in Italy! Since uncle has experience in this field, isn''t it just right?" "Fang, is it true? Aren''t you a soldier? How can you have time to do business!" Now Lilith couldn''t help but wonder. "It''s because I''m a soldier that I need to find a manager to help me manage the company! I just need to manage the general direction of the company!" Seeing Fang Lang''s expression of course, Lilith also felt very Makes sense. Fang Lang turned to look at Lilith''s father again and said, "Uncle, I don''t know if you can come and help me. I can hire you as the Italian branch of Global Trading Company with a monthly salary of two hundred dollars plus year-end dividends. General Manager position." Hearing that Fang Lang''s monthly salary was 200 U.S. dollars, everyone''s eyes lit up. Lilith''s mother blurted out: "200 U.S. dollars a month, is it true? Fang, it''s really 200 U.S. dollars a month ?" To be honest, the two hundred dollars Fang Lang gave each month is definitely a proper high salary in Italy in this era, but it must be quite low compared to Fang Lang''s profit, but the relationship with Lilith is not close yet. At this point, it is not clear whether Lilith''s father''s specific ability is qualified for this position. So Fang Lang reported this salary to Lilith''s father first, and then considered increasing salary or equity incentives and dividend rewards if he was able to do the job. "Of course, how can I joke about this kind of thing! If my uncle agrees, I can go to work tomorrow. We still have to recruit and enrich the personnel of various departments. Hurry up and set up the company''s shelf. I have to go back to the army to report. " "Fang, during the war, sea transportation is cut off, how can we survive as a trading company like this?" Lilith''s father was a businessman after all, so he grasped the point right away. "Don''t worry, uncle. You also know that I am a soldier and the captain of a transport ship. Therefore, although the German submarines are hunting around, my fleet will follow the American **** fleet, which is better than ordinary freighters. It is countless times safer. This is the confidence we can develop." Hearing that Fang Lang''s transport ship could move with the American **** fleet, Lilith''s father finally understood why Fang Lang dared to open a new import and export trading company at this time when all import and export businesses had ceased production . Lilith''s father glanced at the ignorant daughter sitting next to Fang Lang, with mixed feelings in his heart, knowing that if he went to work in Fang Lang''s company, he would almost agree to the relationship between Lilith and Fang Lang. And his daughter still looked at Fang Lang blankly from the side without understanding anything. There is a sense of dj vu in my heart that the cabbage that has been raised for eighteen years is exchanged for a bowl of rice by the pig next door. However, he knew that he couldn''t refuse such a job opportunity. In this special period, everyone is looking for job opportunities. If he doesn''t accept this job with a monthly salary of 200 dollars, there will be a lot of people fighting for it. Even if you send your daughter there, you will also get this job. So, after he pondered for a while, Fang Lang said: "Fang, thank you for giving me this opportunity, I will work hard, and the wages you pay will definitely be worth the money." "That''s good. I''m so happy that you can come to work. With you at the helm of the company, I can go out and develop with peace of mind. I organized a transport fleet, and now I have three transport ships, running from Italy to Brazil. Uncle, take the time to do a market survey after work to find out what is the most scarce and in short supply in the Italian market, and we will ship it from Brazil." Lilith''s father was even more surprised when he heard that Fang Lang had three transport ships. He didn''t expect that this hairy son-in-law had such strength, so he had to impress him. In this way, the two made an appointment. After meeting at the company''s office building at 8:30 tomorrow morning, Fang Lang left Lilith''s house reluctantly. (end of this chapter) Chapter 15: Entry to the Admiralty Chapter 15 Entry to the Admiralty After Fang Lang left Lilith''s house, Lilith''s parents began a detailed interrogation of Lilith and Fang Lang''s relationship experience. When Lilith said that tonight was the first meeting between the two in a month after Fang Lang was discharged from the hospital. Lilith''s mother directly stated that he was interested in this young man, and demanded that Lilith must hold this son-in-law in her hands, which made Lilith so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground. Although Lilith has a good impression of Fanglang, and the relationship between the two of them was a step closer yesterday than before, Lilith still thinks that the two should get to know each other a little bit better to see if it is suitable for further development. In the end, Lilith''s father made a concluding speech on behalf of the head of the family: "Let''s not get involved. The personal relationship between Lilith and Fang Lang is still up to them. If they can get together, I hope it''s because of love." Don''t affect your judgment of your feelings just because I''m working for him, you know, Lilith!" "I understand Dad! You still love me the most." Such a beautiful misunderstanding made Lilith''s family members know Fang Lang, and because of the family''s misunderstanding, Fang Lang''s status in Lilith''s mind quietly changed. Early the next morning, when Fang Lang came downstairs to the company''s office building, Lilith''s father, Umaru Coburn, was already waiting downstairs in the company. Fang Lang stepped forward very naturally, and after shaking hands with him, he opened the door and entered the office building. It is also the first time Fang Lang has entered this office building. This is a four-story baroque building. The materials used in the entire building are very particular. Although Fang Lang doesn''t know what kind of stone it is, it can be seen that it is definitely not cheap. . The inside and outside of the house are finely crafted sculptures, and the decoration is very gorgeous. This made Fang Lang feel that his $40,000 was well worth it. If it weren''t for the war period, Fang Lang believed that such a building covering an area of ??nearly 1,000 square meters would not be able to be sold. The absolute value of this building in the 21st century is over 100 million. But at this time, this kind of architecture can be seen everywhere in Italy, but few people care about it. Fortunately, someone has obviously taken care of the building, and it was cleaned up very neatly. Even the desks and chairs are all complete, which are obviously left over from the original, which saves Fang Lang a lot of trouble. Because I made an appointment with the mayor of Naples yesterday, all recommended people will come here for an interview at 9:00 this morning. The task of Fang Lang and Mr. Coburn this morning is to interview all the personnel. Set up the shelves of the Italian branch of Global Trading Co., Ltd. within today, and recruit enough captains and sailors for your own fleet. Soon people began to come for interviews one after another. Fang Lang only interviewed the company''s financial personnel, and Mr. Coburn came to interview the other personnel. The management personnel such as the captain''s mate of the fleet were also interviewed by Fang Lang. As for the other sailors, Fang Lang handed it over to the captain''s mate to recruit themselves. Therefore, the recruitment work was barely completed in one morning. When the basic structure of the personnel was completed, Fang Lang first asked Mr. Coburn to arrange for two special personnel to go to the naval warehouse to guard the warehouse and prepare to receive the cargo brought by the crew. Fang Lang explained the main business of Global Trading Company to Mr. Coburn in detail. He also asked him to arrange special personnel to go to the market to collect commodities that are in short supply and can create high value, and to regularly report the market price of the commodities to himself and the New York head office by telegram, so that the company can adjust the commodities it transports. Fang Lang knew the importance of information very early on, so he planned to arrange professional telegraph rooms in several of his companies and fleets to facilitate timely communication and transmission of information. The New York headquarters is notified by telegram, and every shipment from the New York headquarters needs to be notified by telegram to the Italian branch, forming a closed loop. Avoid being pocketed by the company''s people when Fang Lang is not around. Finally finished handling the company''s affairs on this day, Fang Lang had to go back to the barracks to report, because Colonel Atilio Parisi of the Brazilian Expeditionary Army Navy sent a military order asking him to arrive before nine o''clock tomorrow morning. The Brazilian Navy Command reported. The commander of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force is only a major general, so the supreme commander of the navy is Colonel Atilio Parisi. If Fang Lang wants to have a good life in the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, he must handle the relationship with the highest officer. So Fang Lang didn''t dare to discount the Colonel''s order in the slightest, and rushed to the Colonel''s office at nine o''clock the next morning to report. "Report! Fang Lang, Second Lieutenant of the Expeditionary Army Navy, was ordered to report!" Fang Lang''s military salute has always been very standard, which is mainly due to his military training experience in the university in his previous life. "Come in!" The voice from the office was very dignified. When Fang Lang opened the door and entered, he found two Brazilian military officers sitting in the office. A thin, fair-skinned, hook-nosed middle-aged colonel was sitting at the desk, looking at him majestically, while the next to him On the sofa in the reception area sat a lieutenant colonel officer with a brownish red skin and a belly with obvious Brazilian characteristics, looking at Fang Lang with a smile on his face. Fang Lang who entered the office just glanced at the office environment, and then came to the colonel''s desk without turning his eyes. He stood at attention and saluted: "Report! Mr. Colonel, Second Lieutenant Fang Lang was ordered to report." "Relax!" Colonel Atilio Parisi looked up and down the second lieutenant officer in front of him. He was tall and straight, 1.8 meters tall, with black hair and black eyes, and an obviously Asian face. "Second Lieutenant Fang Lang, I have read your resume, and the army has given you a very high evaluation of your performance on the battlefield. I welcome a heroic soldier like you to join our navy." "Thank you, sir! I am also very honored to be able to join the commander''s command and serve the country!" "I heard from Brigadier General Jackson that you have passed the assessment of the US military and have the ability to drive ocean-going ships, so I hope you come here today. You can hurry up and get acquainted with your colleagues in the navy. We will get it from the US military immediately." Take over the transport ship and start the transport work as soon as possible." Mr. Colonel did not greet Fang Lang, the second lieutenant, but directly cut to the topic and asked to start work as soon as possible. "Yes, sir!" "This is Lieutenant Colonel Graham from the Logistics Department of the Expeditionary Force Headquarters. In the future, your ship will be mainly responsible for docking with the Lieutenant Colonel, transporting the remains of my fallen soldiers and the spoils back to Brazil. Do you understand clearly!" Atilio Colonel Parisi pointed to the smiling lieutenant colonel officer on the sofa. "Report, sir, my ship will be responsible for transporting the remains and trophies of my fallen soldiers back to Brazil. The order is clear!" Fang Lang repeated the order loudly, then turned to Lieutenant Colonel Graham and saluted: "Hello, sir!" Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s work style is obviously much looser. After raising his hand casually, he said directly to the other side: "Hello, I don''t know how long it will take you to build your team. We need to ship back to Brazil the supplies and The remains of the fallen soldiers will be transported to Naples tomorrow, and I hope to set sail as soon as possible." "Reporting sir, this time will take more than a week at the fastest, because I need to meet and get familiar with my crew first, and then go to the US military to receive our ship. After getting familiar with the ship, we can set off." Fang Lang didn''t want to go so soon Let''s go! The Italian company still needs him to participate in the construction, and the little girl Lilith still needs him to attack. Of course, what Fang Lang said is also true, and now he doesn''t know what level of ability the crew members assigned to him have. Don''t wait for the troublesome rookies with no sailing experience! Fortunately, Mr. Lieutenant Colonel just frowned deeply and didn''t say anything more. Soon Fang Lang left Colonel Atilio Parisi''s office, and under the leadership of his adjutant, he came to a military camp. In front of a barracks, there was already a team of more than fifty people waiting for the arrival of the new chief in the cold wind. After the adjutant announced the appointment of Fang Lang by the headquarters in front of the team, he handed over the team to Fang Lang. Looking at the team of about fifty people in front of him, Fang Lang was excited. Finally, the buddies are also the ones who lead the troops. (end of this chapter) Chapter 16: crew Chapter 16 Crew In January 1945, the weather in Italy was very cold. Fang Lang and the soldiers stood outside the tent, shivering with cold, but Fang Lang didn''t give an order, and the team disbanded. Instead, everyone started their first self-introduction directly outside the barracks, because Fang Lang knew that he was too young, and almost everyone in the team was older than him, and there were two second lieutenants in terms of military rank. Fang Lang had to establish a stern image of himself when they met for the first time. This is what the elders said about the three fires for new officials to take office. Fang Lang knows very well that authority is very important in the army. You must let everyone understand that who has the final say here. Fang Lang stood at attention and saluted, and the team also saluted neatly. After the ceremony, Fang Lang began to speak for the first time: "Take it easy, brothers! I am the captain of this newly formed transport ship, and my name is Fang Lang. Thank you for welcoming me in the cold wind. We are about to fight on the same boat. I hope to get acquainted with everyone first. Next, I will introduce myself one by one starting from the vanguard on my right. I need to know your name, years of service, service experience and The position on the ship! Do you understand!" "Understood!" There was a neat shout from the team, obviously the Americans had been effective in training the free-spirited Brazilians. Although the standing posture and military discipline of the team certainly cannot be compared with the army in Fang Lang''s mind, it is already much stricter than the domestic army in Brazil. "Let''s start then!" Hearing everyone''s answers, Fang Lang ordered to start directly. "Report, my name is Fyodor de la Torre. I have served in the Navy for eight years. I was the chief mate of the destroyer Marsilo Diaz before I was transferred. Now I am your first mate." The first Fang Lang was taken aback by the person who introduced him. How could a destroyer''s first officer be sent to such a transport ship as the first officer? This is equivalent to distribution to the frontier! "Report, my name is Roberto Fendis. I have been in the military for two years. I am from the logistics department. I am now your second mate." This is obviously a related account. Isn''t this bullshit? Fang Lang didn''t even think about whether he was a bigger relationship in the minds of these crew members! At a young age, an army sergeant under twenty suddenly became the captain of a naval transport ship. The Americans also specified that he must be the captain. This is not a relationship, what is a relationship. Of course, the background of his relationship is the Yankee, and now the Yankee is the father of the Brazilian, so everyone dare not have any objections. "Report, my name is Amar Rayner. I have served for two years. Before serving, I was the chief engineer of a transport ship, and now I am your chief engineer." Finally, a normal crew member came. "Report, my name is Cruzeret Duarte. I have served for three years. I used to be the infantry squad leader of the 11th Army Regiment. Now I am your security squad leader." There is another colleague here, but the security squad leader he mentioned does not mean Although Fang Lang''s guards are also responsible for part of Fang Lang''s guard work, this class is mainly to use anti-aircraft machine guns on ships, anti-submarine guns and other defensive weapons to protect ships from being hit by German planes or submarines. Shen''s guard force. The rest of the crew are basically sailors and soldiers, and Fang Lang did not expect that most of these crew members were transferred from various ships of the Navy, and some of them even only had work experience on inland river vessels. However, Fang Lang was very pleasantly surprised to have a first officer who had worked on a destroyer. Although Fang Lang knew that this person might have been dispatched, or it might be a backup personnel arranged by the Brazilian Navy for fear that Fang Lang would not be able to play with the transport ship, Fang Lang didn''t care at all. Now with the relationship between Fang Lang and the US military, the Brazilian Navy does not dare to move Fang Lang''s position. So arranging such a person, as long as Fang Lang can use it well, Fang Lang will be very easy. Finally, after everyone had finished their self-introductions, Fang Lang began to summarize: "Very good, although everyone comes from different military branches, different departments, and has different experiences, but I hope that everyone can seize the time to get acquainted with each other and form combat effectiveness as soon as possible. Our superiors only gave us a week to adapt to the new jobs. This afternoon I will confirm the situation of our ships with the US military. Tomorrow morning we will officially receive the ships and start our crew career. On board, then we must unite as one, overcome difficulties and cross the blockade of the Germans together, and complete the tasks assigned to us by our superiors. Do you have confidence!" "Have!" "The voice is too low, I can''t hear it clearly!" Fang Lang stared at the soldiers coldly. Although he could hear their reply, he obviously didn''t hear their confidence from the response. "Yes!" The voice finally became a little more orderly and louder. "Are you girls? The voices of so many people are not loud enough for me alone! Answer me loudly, do you have confidence!" What Fang Lang needs is the shouting of the soldiers with all their strength. Finally, the soldiers tried their best one by one, the blue veins on their necks bulged, and a blushing and thick-necked shout came: "Yes! Yes! Yes!" "Very good! Remember this feeling, whether you are speaking or doing things, you must do your best. My ears are not very good, so when answering my questions in the future, please stay in today''s state." Of course Fang Lang will not His ears are not good. His body has been fused with the memories of two lifetimes. Whether it is memory, physical fitness or spirit, it has doubled compared to the original, especially the body is much stronger than before, and the muscles on his body are bulging. The increased power made Fang Lang feel that he could easily overwhelm ten enemies. "Stand at attention! Everyone is there. Except for the chief officer, the rest of the personnel returned to the camp to rest. Disbanded." Hearing Fang Lang''s announcement of the dissolution, the soldiers shivering in the cold wind dispersed one by one. This made Fang Lang very dissatisfied, but he didn''t say anything more, after all, this is the Brazilian army. "Hello, Mr. de la Torre, I am very glad to work with you." Fang Lang extended a hand of friendship to his first mate. The first mate is a blond, blue-eyed, bearded white man with a short build. Judging by his age, Fang Lang thinks he is at least thirty-eight or nineteen years old, which is when he is in the prime of life. Mr. First Mate also reached out to shake hands with Fang Lang, and said in a solemn tone: "Hello, Mr. Captain, it is an honor to be able to serve as the first mate on your ship." Fang Lang also straight to the point said: "Mr. Chief Mate, please forgive me for taking the liberty. I am very curious about how your resume would agree to serve as the first officer on this transport ship of mine?" Maybe most foreigners are relatively straightforward people, or maybe de la Torre himself had expected that he would be asked this question. So he also said a little awkwardly: "Mr. Captain, because my family''s conditions are not good, and every month''s income is sent back home, so I have no money to give gifts." The first mate''s answer stunned Fang Lang, but he didn''t realize it. Will he be transferred from a destroyer to a transport ship if he doesn''t have money? What kind of **** reason is this? You should find a more reliable reason to deceive people! However, seeing the serious expression on the first mate''s face, Fang Lang felt that he should not have lied to himself. It took me a long time to realize that I was in Brazil! At this time in Brazil, corruption was prevalent, and the government was dictatorial. If the lower-level military officers did not give their superiors enough benefits, there was basically no hope for promotion. Phenomenon like de la Torre should be very common. "I understand, Mr. First Officer, so first of all I want to tell you that I don''t care about other places, but on my ship, I don''t allow you to collect benefits from the crew below, and I don''t need you to give me benefits. In addition, you will be given a certain cash reward based on your work performance. My request is very simple. I hope that everyone can devote all their energy to work and improve their work ability. If your ability If it is enough, I will give you enough power and enough income to support your family. Do you understand what I mean?" Fang Lang said seriously to the first mate, already thinking in his heart, maybe he found a way to train himself direction of power. "Mr. Captain, are you serious?" De La Torre stared at Fang Lang with shock and expectation in his eyes. "Of course, don''t worry! It''s my job to generate income, and what you have to do is to help me manage the crew well, and pay close attention to training to improve the tacit understanding among the crew. I hope I can have a combat-capable ship, If you can live to my satisfaction, then you will be able to get an extra allowance of no less than one hundred dollars from me every month." Fang Lang patted the first mate''s arm affirmatively, and promised seriously! (end of this chapter) Chapter 17: American Souvenirs Chapter 17 American Souvenirs One hundred dollars is not a small income in this era. Fang Lang''s words made de la Torre speechless in shock, because he used to be able to get a little respect from the crew as the first mate, on average every month It can be about thirty dollars, but now Fang Lang said that as long as he does his job well, he can get an extra one hundred dollars a month in allowance. This kind of thing is simply a fantasy in the Brazilian army. It''s all the subordinates who pay tribute to the chief. When did the chief start giving allowances to his subordinates privately. Della Torre looked at Fang Lang in a daze for a long while, then swallowed his saliva and said, "Mr. Captain, I listen to you." Fang Lang saw de la Torre''s expression, and said lightly: "You go back first! You will see my promise soon!" After speaking, he turned and walked towards the Colonel''s office. De la Torre''s words reminded Fang Lang that although he was backed by the Americans, if there was a rumor about wanting to be in the Brazilian army, he must be as light as dust! How can I say that I am also a man with money ability now. Fang Lang first went to the warehouse to get two cigarettes, took out the cigarettes inside, stuffed some American souvenirs in, and strode to the office of Colonel Atilio Parisi, commander of the Brazilian Navy. Because he doesn''t know who is under his jurisdiction now, it may be because of the direct arrangement of the Americans. As a small second lieutenant officer, Fang Lang''s job was directly arranged by the naval commander. This is also good, directly find the biggest leader, without making a difference to the middleman, and the cost is lower. "Report! Lieutenant Fang Lang, I have something to report to you!" Fang Lang held a small satchel in his hand and knocked on the door of Colonel Atilio Parisi''s office. "Come in, Second Lieutenant Fang, didn''t you just leave? Why did you come back so soon? What''s the matter?" Mr. Colonel looked at Fang Lang suspiciously. "Reporting sir, this is the first time this subordinate came to report to you. He was careless and accidentally stepped on a flower at your door. I came here to apologize to you!" Fang Lang looked serious. Colonel Atilio Parisi is a little confused. What does it mean that he has a bad memory? When will there be flowers and plants at the door? "Did you remember wrongly, there are no flowers at the door of my office!" "Report sir, it''s because I was afraid of your punishment after I stepped on it, so I already threw it away. To express my apology, I brought some American native products over here, hoping to make up for your loss." Take out the prepared gift and put it on Mr. Colonel''s desk. Mr. Colonel saw Fang Lang put a cigarette on the table, and finally realized what Fang Lang meant. Glancing at the unsealed cigarette case, I thought to myself, what does it mean to look down on someone! Am I a smoker? And it''s still unpacked. "Okay! I see. I don''t need to come here to apologize for this trivial matter. It is more important to hurry up and get back to familiarize yourself with your team." Seeing that the colonel didn''t open the cigarette case to see what was inside, Fang Lang was worried that when the time came, Mr. Colonel gave it to someone else, so wouldn''t he be performing for the blind? Hastily said: "Sir, I hope you don''t dislike the souvenirs I gave you. This kind of souvenirs need to be smoked one by one. If you smoke one by one, you will be very sad." Fang Lang''s words made Mr. Colonel unable to fix it again. What do you mean I need you to teach me to smoke, and I smoke one by one, not one by one. Picking up the cigarette and looking at the place where it was opened, his pupils shrank, and he quickly covered the cigarette case with his hand. Turning his head to look at Fang Lang''s expression, it was a wonderful expression, astonishment, embarrassment, blame, worry, doubt, and happiness. The expression on his face kept changing, and after a while he laughed loudly and said, "Fang, isn''t it just a flower? Is it worth your special trip? Come and sit first, have a cup of coffee, you don''t have to worry about work. Hurry up, we still have plenty of time." "Reporting sir, thank you very much for your generosity. You are so busy with work, so I don''t want to disturb you too much. Before our fleet departs, I will report to you again. If you need to bring something for your family in Brazil If you have something, please let me know, and I will come to pick it up right away and deliver it back to your home in person." Fang Lang saw that his gift had been delivered, and Mr. Colonel had accepted it, so he didn''t hesitate anymore and was ready to visit next sir. Colonel Atilio Parisi also wanted to see how many local products there were, so he stopped keeping Fang Lang: "Okay then! Go back and work hard, and good news will come soon!" Mr. Colonel''s words made Fang Lang a little confused, what good news, he just reported to the barracks, what good news can there be. Without entanglement, he said "Sir, goodbye." He left Mr. Colonel''s office. The office of Lieutenant Colonel Graham of the logistics department is near the storage area. Since he has never been there, he went around and asked a few people before he found the place. After knocking on the office door, it took a while for a woman to respond: "Who is it?" "Excuse me, is this Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s office? I''m Lieutenant Fang Lang, I have something to report to the officer!" Then I heard a rustling sound inside, and a white woman with a variety of styles opened the door Walked out, cast a wink at Fang Lang, then turned his **** and walked away. Fang Lang was done thinking about it, it was not the time to disturb the chief''s good deeds, will this be put on small shoes! I don''t know if it''s too late to turn around and leave now. Just as Fang Lang was still thinking about whether to leave, Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s voice came from the room: "Please come in!" Listening to the emotionless voice from inside, Fang Lang was so embarrassed that he could dig out two rooms and one living room with his toes on the ground. But now that he has declared his name, he can only bite the bullet and push the door in. "Report sir, when you came out of Mr. Colonel''s office just now, something was left behind, and I sent it to you!" The room was very warm, with the smell of women''s inferior perfume, and a special smell. Fang Lang knew what it was, so he felt a little nauseous. At this time, Lieutenant Colonel Graham seemed to be indifferent, and while slowly putting on his obese body a military uniform that did not fit well, he turned his head and said to Fang Lang: "Something is missing, what is it?" something!" Fang Lang didn''t talk nonsense, and directly put the cigarette case on the table in front of Mr. Lieutenant Colonel. Mr. Lieutenant Colonel picked it up casually and looked at the opened seal. His eyes narrowed slightly, and a smile began to appear on his oily and sweaty face. "Haha. Thank you, Second Lieutenant Fang, for making this hard trip. This is indeed my property, and he is very valuable. Second Lieutenant Fang, please see if there is anything I can help you with. I must express my gratitude." Fang Lang didn''t expect that Lieutenant Colonel Graham would be a master who would do things for money, which made Fang Lang''s original dislike of him lessened a lot. Thinking about it, I dont think there is anything I need his help to do. This gift of souvenirs is actually because he knows these two officers in the Brazilian army now. Burn the cold stove, say hello, and hope that when good things happen in the future, I can think about myself. In fact, Fang Lang didn''t think there were many souvenirs sent out this time. The colonel was worth four thousand dollars, and the one in front of him was only three thousand dollars. Suddenly, he had a flash of inspiration: "Reporting officer, there is nothing on my side that needs your help! You told me in the morning that we are mainly responsible for transporting the spoils back home, so I don''t know how many spoils you have here!" "That must be a lot! It''s a pity that our transportation capacity is not enough, and the shipping route is not safe, alas! This is my biggest headache. Now you are the only transport ship, and I don''t know when it will be transported!" Fang Lang The question clearly hit Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s sore spot. "Is it like this? Maybe I can help you a bit!" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Lieutenant Colonel Graham beamed with joy and said, "Second Lieutenant Fang, what can you do, tell me quickly, if you can solve my big problem, I will definitely apply to the officer for you Promotion reward." Fang Lang hurriedly said in surprise: "Sir, are you serious?" "Never break your promise!" Lieutenant Colonel Graham assured with a serious face. (end of this chapter) Chapter 18: receiving ship Chapter 18 Receiving Ships Looking at Mr. Lieutenant Colonel''s serious expression, Fang Lang knew that his chance had come. "Okay, then I''ll tell you that there is a place where you can hire ships that dare to go to Brazil, and now you should be able to transfer three ships of about 5,000 tons, but I estimate that the freight may be very expensive. After all, the route is full of Germans now. A human submarine." Of course, Fang Lang was talking about the three freighters he had just bought from Commodore Jackson. Originally, he was planning to use these three ships to return to Brazil to pull goods and sell them. Now, it is of course better to go to Brazil without an empty ship. Originally, Fang Lang could let the ship go to New York to directly purchase goods and ship them to Italy, but New York Port is now used for transshipment of military supplies, and it is difficult for civilian ships to find berths. The most important reason is that Fang Lang''s uncle Yang Zong runs a small private workshop-style cigarette factory in Sao Paulo, Brazil, and the business has not been very good. At this time, Fang Lang wanted to invest in his uncle''s cigarette factory, expand the scale of operation, and use this rare opportunity to develop the cigarette factory. As an important tobacco production area in Brazil, the procurement cost and labor cost are very low, so the cost of purchasing cigarettes in Brazil is lower than in New York. Fang Lang has no reason not to take care of his own business. Here I will introduce Fang Lang''s mother''s natal family by the way. Grandpa''s father is also Fang Lang''s grandfather, a survivor of the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom who came to Brazil with Fang Lang''s grandfather. Her ancestral home is Hunan, but her grandfather got married late and had a daughter, Yang Xiuer, and a son, Yang Zong. Obviously, Yang Xiuer is Fang Lang''s mother. The old man bought land and became a landlord like the grandfather in the early years. When Fang Langs grandfather was young, he didnt want to be tied to the land, so he started doing business. He bought tobacco in the Chinese planting area and sold it. The cigarette factory opened a cigarette factory with advanced cigarette equipment, but the cigarettes produced by the cigarette factory have no special features, so they are all half dead. When it was passed on to my uncle, my uncle wanted to change hands of the cigarette factory many times, but because there was no one to take over, and the people working in the factory were all old people in the factory, it was not easy to cut off everyone''s livelihood, so it became Now this tasteless state. Uncle Yang Zong married a Portuguese wife and gave birth to two sons, but neither of them wanted to take over his uncle''s cigarette factory. The eldest son Yang Qian is now working as a small clerk in the Sao Paulo City Government. He wants to go on a career and is unwilling to return home to face the half-dead cigarette factory; the younger son Yang Kun is still studying at university. In Fang Lang''s impression, Yang Kun also I have no interest in the cigarette factory at home, but want to be a teacher. So Fang Lang considered going back to buy the factory or invest in shares, and continue to let his uncle manage it. Don''t let the family business of the grandfather''s family disappear by then. When it grows bigger, see if the two cousins ??have ideas to help manage it. Lieutenant Colonel Graham heard Fang Lang say that there is a ship that can run on the Brazilian route, and he was very excited. He said quickly: "Money is a small problem, we pay in US dollars. Let''s go, let''s go to the other company to chat now!" It''s a pity that Fang Lang hasn''t greeted Mr. Coburn in advance, and he hasn''t got the boat yet, so he definitely can''t take him there right now, so he can only shirk and say: "Sir, don''t worry, just now Attilio Colonel Parisi asked me to go to the U.S. Navy to go through the ship handover procedures, so I have to go to receive the ship first. How about it! I will reserve a table at the Kantina Restaurant tonight, and I will invite the other party to come with you and eat while you are there Can we talk?" Lieutenant Colonel Graham was helpless when he heard that Fang Lang still had a mission. After all, the military order was like a mountain. At the same time, Fang Lang said that he would invite him to dinner at the famous Cantina restaurant in Naples tonight, so he was relieved, and said quickly: "Of course, no problem, you can rest assured that this kind of entertainment for official business, you don''t need to treat guests, it will be used directly as our logistics The Ministrys hospitality expenses are enough. Ill arrange for my adjutant to set up a seat right away, and well see you tonight! Fang Lang didn''t expect that in Brazil at this time, there was also a talk about catering and hospitality expenses. Of course, he wouldn''t mind being able to eat and drink with the Brazilian government''s public funds. "Okay, sir, then we''ll see you tonight!" Fang Lang didn''t stay any longer after speaking, and took the time to sneak away. Even though the room was much warmer than the outside, he didn''t want to stay in this smelly room any longer. After leaving Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s office, Fang Lang did not go directly to Commodore Jackson to receive the ship, but went to the office building of Global Trade first, and brought Mr. Coburn and the three Italian captains he had recruited. and chief mates. Only then did he enter the U.S. Navy barracks again and found Brigadier General Jackson. After introducing Brigadier General Jackson to Mr. Coburn, they came to the berth of the ship together. At this time, four large transport ships were berthed at the berth. Judging from the construction style of the ships, three of them should have been manufactured by a German shipyard and one by an Italian shipyard. Obviously, the ships of the German shipyard are newer than the ships of the Italian shipyard, and the design load of the transport ship of the German shipyard is 5,500 tons, while the Italian ship is exactly 5,000 tons. The four ships are all powered by steam turbines, and their top speeds are all about fifteen knots. Although it is lower than the top speed of the Victory Wheel at eighteen knots, it is also higher than the eleven knots of ordinary Liberty Ships. The ships are all fully captured Axis ships, and there is no damage. After inspection by Brigadier General Jackson, the condition of the ships is very good. The U.S. military has just carried out deep maintenance on the ships. They are fully fueled and ready to sail at any time. Set off. Fang Lang directly handed over three German-made ships to Coburn, and he himself received Italian-made ships for the Brazilian Navy. A better boat must be reserved for himself. Fang Lang is very clear about the distinction between public and private. And there is nothing wrong with this Italian-made ship, except that the load capacity is slightly smaller and the ship is a little older, which does not affect normal use. After explaining to Mr. Coburn how to deal with Lieutenant Colonel Graham at night, Fang Lang returned to the Brazilian Naval Base with the ship''s information, reported the handover situation to Colonel Atilio Parisi, and asked Mr. Colonel Arranging to enter the entry data, and officially assigning this ship to the Brazilian Navy''s battle order, of course, there are many cumbersome procedures that Fang Lang does not need to worry about. Only Brazilian navy personnel are needed. After hurrying up to check and accept the ship tonight, Fang Lang can become the official captain of the Brazilian Navy tomorrow. The time soon came to 6:30 in the evening, and Fang Lang came to the Cantina restaurant early. In fact, in terms of the living habits of the Italians, dinner is generally very late, and it will not start before 8 o''clock. However, this time because Fang Lang is playing the role of a middleman, he must arrive at the restaurant early. After all, as a Brazilian, Lieutenant Colonel Graham does not know that the Italian dinner is a real dinner. Sure enough, when Fang Lang came to the restaurant, Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s special car had already parked at the door of the restaurant, and Lieutenant Colonel Graham, who was wearing casual clothes, squeezed his obese body out of the co-pilot seat of Willis Jeep Come out, and seeing how hard the jeep rebounded after he jumped out of the jeep with difficulty, Fang Lang believed that if the jeep could talk, there would be a national curse. Fang Lang stepped forward to meet Lieutenant Colonel Graham and said, "Sir, Italian dinner usually doesn''t start until eight o''clock in the evening, so we came a little early, although I told the other party that dinner would start at seven o''clock , but Italians are not punctual. Although it is not good to speak ill of Italians behind his father-in-laws back, he must show that he is only a middleman. Otherwise, when Lieutenant Colonel Graham finds out, his company doesn''t know what it will think. After all, the current Brazilian government is a dictatorial government. Fang Lang had already thought about it a long time ago. All investments in Brazil will not be directly establishing companies in Brazil in his own name, but investing in Brazil in the name of European and American companies will be more Be safe and not cause unnecessary coveting. When Lagham heard that he was Italian, he couldn''t help frowning: "The Italian is unreliable now, are you sure this Italian can have three ships that can go to Brazil." "Please rest assured, sir. I have known about this company. The full name of this company is the Italian Branch of Global Trading Co., Ltd., and it is actually the Italian branch of an American company. That''s why it was not treated as an enemy during this war." Fang''s capital was confiscated. If you are not at ease, we will arrange our own soldiers and ships on each ship, and there will be no problem." Seeing that Lieutenant Colonel Graham was worried about the Italians, Fang Lang hurriedly Move out of the company''s American background. (end of this chapter) Chapter 19: sister flower Chapter 19 Sister Flowers Lieutenant Colonel Lagham listened to Fang Lang''s suggestion that he could arrange soldiers to accompany the ship, and he let go of his doubts. "You are right, if we can negotiate, we will arrange personnel to **** the ship!" The two walked into the restaurant while talking, and sat down not long after. Fang Lang saw Mr. Coburn also coming to the door of the restaurant, got up quickly, and waved his hand. Seeing Fang Lang get up, Mr. Lieutenant Colonel knew that the guests had arrived, so he could only pull his **** off the seat reluctantly. Looking at the person who came, I saw a middle-aged Caucasian man in a suit with meticulously combed hair and a calm bookish look. Fang Lang stepped forward to shake hands and introduced the two of them. After the three of them sat down, the restaurant staff began to serve the dishes that had been ordered in order. Foreigners are not very used to discussing business at the dinner table, so at the beginning, they were talking about the scenery of Italy and the like. Soon after the meal was over, Lieutenant Colonel Ragham couldn''t wait to say: "Mr. Coburn, I heard Fang tell me that you have three ships in your hands without transportation tasks, right?" "There are three ships, but it can''t be said that there is no transportation task. The US head office asked us to drive the ship to New York to help transport some military supplies. However, we are not willing to go to the United States with an empty ship, so there is no The trip will take place immediately. But since Mr. Fang found me, we can take over the business of helping your army transport supplies back to Brazil, but the price may be higher, I hope Mr. Graham can understand." Mr. Coburn said lightly. Originally, Lagham heard that Coburn said that the United States needed ships from this side to transport military supplies, and thought it was a dead end. Later, he heard that he could take it, mainly because of the price. What''s the problem with this? The freight is borne by the Brazilian government, but the materials transported back belong to me and the army commander. This kind of operation that harms the public and private interests should not be too simple, so Lieutenant Colonel Ragham said easily: "Mr. Coburn Please rest assured, money is not a problem, I will not counter the price you make." Listening to Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s heroic answer, Fang Lang thought that the officer died from a local tyrant in Saudi Arabia! Mr. Coburn was also taken aback. He didn''t know how to speak for a while after the price negotiation routine he had prepared. After thinking for a while, he said, "Lieutenant Colonel Graham, we now have three cargo ships with a load of 5,500 tons. If you are sure to use chartered ships, our one-way quotation to Brazil is 30,000 US dollars per ship. " Although Lieutenant Colonel Graham said that he was not short of money, he couldn''t help being speechless when he heard the freight of 30,000 US dollars a trip. He glanced at Fang Lang and winked, asking Fang Lang to help him say something good. It''s a pity that Fang Lang seemed to be an outsider from the beginning of their business discussion. He looked around in the restaurant, looking for eye-catching beauties, and completely took Graham''s wink as eye cramps. Graham was also very helpless when he saw Fang Lang''s performance. The cowhide was blown out by himself again, and he was a little bit embarrassed now. His eyes rolled and he said: "Mr. Coburn, your price is considered reasonable, and I can''t accept it, but we don''t know if we can discuss it. All your fuel and living supplies back and forth are provided by our Brazilian Navy. I dont know if the price can be slightly discounted. Mr. Coburn thought for a while: "If this is the case, we can accept the minimum price of 28,500 US dollars per ship. But we must first make it clear that we are not responsible for the safety of the cargo. Now no insurance company is willing to pay for the goods. Cargo insurance by sea. The main reason is that the German submarines are hard to guard against. The risks we need to bear are huge, and the ship may be destroyed at any time. I hope you can understand." "I understand that now is a special period, and I agree with the price. If the loss of goods is caused by war, we will not be responsible for your company, but if it is for other reasons, you will be responsible. In addition, because our goods It is the logistics supplies of the army, so we need to arrange escorts on each ship, and I hope you can provide convenience." Lieutenant Colonel Graham also put forward his request in a timely manner. Such a request is of course a dream for Coburn. It is also safer to have troops on board to provide protection. So he said without hesitation: "Of course, it is a normal procedure for the cargo owner to arrange personnel to accompany the ship to supervise the cargo safety, and we must actively cooperate." In this way, the two quickly reached a preliminary agreement. As for the specific cooperation details, they agreed to arrange a special person to discuss in detail at Global Trading Company tomorrow. In the end, the two ended the meeting in a relaxed and happy atmosphere. Fang Lang really wanted to go home with Mr. Coburn to see Miss Lilith, but unfortunately he is no longer free before reporting to the Brazilian Navy. There are still soldiers under his command in the barracks to manage, so he can only follow Graham The lieutenant colonel''s jeep returned to the barracks. Fang Lang, who returned to the barracks, didn''t know that Mr. Coburn, who had returned home at this time, was surrounding his family and asking about his first day at work. "Honey, how do you feel on the first day of work today? Is your son-in-law''s company large?" Mrs. Coburn looked at her husband eagerly. When Coburn heard his wife addressing Fang Lang, his head was covered with black lines, while Lilith next to him blushed instantly. It made the younger sister on the side giggle. Looking at the expectant eyes of his family, Coburn had to tell what he saw and heard in the company today. He heard that Fang Lang was commensurate with the uncle and nephew of the Commodore of the United States, and received three ships directly from the US military at one time. The 5,000-ton freighter made Mrs. Coburn''s eyes shine with gold. And when I heard that the ship I just got will have business coming soon, and the shipping cost is even more frighteningly high, I praised it again and again, then turned to Lilith and said: "I said Lilith, what is your favor with Fanglang?" I have no idea! I''ve made an agreement with you, I''ve taken a fancy to this son-in-law. If you can''t take it down, I''ll arrange for your sister to come out!" If Fang Lang was here, he would hold his mother-in-law''s hand and call him his mother-in-law, not for Lilith, but mainly because he really didn''t want to change his mother-in-law. It''s a pity that the father and daughter at the scene couldn''t be dealt with directly, and they stared at the woman in front of them dumbfounded. Lilith blushed even more: "Mom, what are you talking about!" The younger sister Vivienne next to her is still a little girl who just turned sixteen. Has the same blond hair as her mother, and looks very similar to the later Italian anchor Di Lita Leotta, except that her skin is whiter. As a sixteen-year-old girl, Vivienne can certainly understand her mother''s meaning. She has a very good relationship with her sister, and then she said: "Mom, how can you say that! I won''t rob my sister." Man. We are good sisters, if my sister can''t take it down, I will be with my sister, and the two of us can definitely take it down." Listening to Wei Wei''an''s words, Mr. Coburn nearly spat out a mouthful of old blood in anger. But Mrs. Coburn began to nod thoughtfully and said: "What Wei Wei''an said is also reasonable. The war has drastically reduced the male population in Italy. There may be many women who will not be able to marry in the future. Although my daughter They are all beautiful, but you cant just find a man and marry them. Vivienne, your idea is very constructive, and I agree. If your sister cant get it by herself, I support your plan, and I dont believe it. There can be a man who can resist the temptation of sister flowers." At this time, Lilith is already numb, so what can I do? It seems that I can''t do without taking Fang Lang now. My mother has already arranged a backup plan, but I think of the love words Fang Lang said to me when I sent him home last night Looking at his own eyes, he couldn''t help feeling a sweet feeling in his heart. I don''t know if Lilith really fell in love with Fang Lang, or if she was influenced by what her mother and sister said, she had already started to regard Fang Lang as her boyfriend in her heart. "I don''t want to talk to you anymore!" Lilith ran back to the room shyly, and her younger sister Wei Wei''an hurriedly got up and went to whisper to her older sister. Mrs. Coburn was still on the sofa and continued to think about the feasibility of the plan. From her expression, it could be seen that she must have thought of something good, with a smile on her face. Poor Mr. Coburn fluttered in the wind with a dazed face, thinking of Socrates'' soul asking three times, who am I, where do I come from, and where am I going. (end of this chapter) Chapter 20: buy peoples hearts Chapter 20 Buying People''s Hearts The next day just after dawn, Fang Lang received an order from the Brazilian Navy Department: Take all the crew at nine o''clock in the morning and go to the pier for a ship awarding ceremony. Fang Lang didn''t dare to neglect. After finishing his team, he lined up neatly and came to the pier to line up. On the pier, comrades in the navy are already making arrangements for the scene, the ship is still covered with ribbons, and the name of the ship "Gillas" is also sprayed on the head of the bed. Fang Lang doesn''t understand the naming rules of the Brazilian Navy, but he can see that the name of the ship is named after a person, and he will be the captain of the Gilas in the future. The mood turned out to be a little bit excited, after all, this is the first time that a person has become an official captain in two lifetimes. Although the tonnage of the ship is not as large as a fraction of the container freighter he worked in the previous life, he is still an official captain, isn''t he? Fang Lang''s team lined up neatly beside the boat, waiting for the start of the enlistment ceremony. Everyone was looking at the battle position in front of them with their own eyes, and everyone had a special feeling in their hearts. Soon it was nine o''clock in the morning, and several naval officers, led by Colonel Atilio Parisi, came to the ship at the pier. Everyone did not expect that a simple transport ship was commissioned by Colonel Parisi. He actually came in person. A lieutenant colonel of the navy walked up to Fang Lang and others step by step, and ordered loudly: "Fang Lang get out!" Fang Lang also came out in accordance with the training etiquette of the U.S. military instructors in his memory. When he came to the lieutenant colonel, he only heard the lieutenant colonel say: "According to the order No. 101 of the Brazilian Navy Expeditionary Force Command, here is the second lieutenant Fang Lang of the Navy. He is courageous and skillful in sailing, successfully passed the assessment, and was appointed as the captain of the Brazilian Navy Expeditionary Force Fleet Gilas. He was promoted to lieutenant of the Navy. Order of the Brazilian Navy Expeditionary Force Fleet Command." Fang Lang couldn''t help being taken aback, what''s the situation, he just changed from a sergeant to a second lieutenant, and he didn''t make any contribution! How did he become a lieutenant. I am only twenty years old! Could it be that such a young lieutenant is not very good. Is the rank of the Brazilian army so easy to promote? There was no time to think about it, and he quickly stood at attention and saluted to receive the order. Looking at Colonel Atilio Parisi not far away, I saw Mr. Colonel smiling at the corner of his mouth, frowned, and nodded slightly, obviously telling Fang Lang that it was his credit. Fang Lang''s heart suddenly dawned, and he couldn''t help but deeply agree with the noble character of these Brazilian military officers who do things with money. Seeing Mr. Lieutenant Colonel changing the epaulettes for himself from the original one flower to two, he suddenly realized that he probably told the colonel to compensate the one flower he had trampled on. I thought it was to buy a flower. I couldn''t help but express my admiration for Mr. Colonel''s brain, and feel ashamed. Soon Mr. Colonel began to give lectures again. Fortunately, during the war, everything was kept simple, and the ceremony ended within less than half an hour. If it was normal, it is estimated that Fang Lang''s calf would not end without cramps. After the ceremony, the freighter Gilas was officially owned by Fang Lang. After arranging the crew to board the ship in order, he gathered all the crew on the deck and began his first lecture on the ship. After waiting for the soldiers to line up and salute each other, Fang Lang slowly said: "Brothers, from now on, we will live on this ship, and we will truly become brothers on the same boat. Today I just say One thing, that is, from now on, on my ship, junior soldiers are not allowed to bribe and give gifts to their superiors. Once discovered, both parties will be sent to military courts. There is absolutely no sympathy to talk about. Of course, I also I understand the difficulties of everyone''s life, so from now on, I will give you a certain allowance every month according to your performance and work achievements. This allowance is in addition to the military salary, and the amount of the allowance will vary according to your position and military rank. The same but different, the minimum is 20 dollars per month, and the maximum is 100 dollars per month. Of course, this is only when your performance meets my requirements, and I will give you an allowance. Please dont use me as a stipend After all, other troops do not have this kind of allowance. At that time, the superior will directly hand over my income, and everyone will have no allowance. And I only ask you for three points, the first is obedience, Number two is obedience, and number three is **** obedience, get it?" When the soldiers heard that there was such a good thing, they couldn''t be too happy, and shouted in unison: "Understood!" This time, Fang Lang didn''t need to repeat the sound, it had already shaken Fang Lang''s eardrums. After Fang Lang announced his disbandment, the soldiers were all talking. "Brother, do you think what the captain said is true!" "Are you saying that you are not allowed to give gifts? It''s really hard to say. Now in our Brazilian army, is there any place where you don''t need to give gifts? Mr. Captain himself doesn''t accept gifts, so it''s inevitable that other officers will not accept them!" "Anyway, the captain has already said that it is not allowed to send it away, so I won''t give it away. Is my military salary worth spending by myself? If the officers have any objections, ask him to go to the captain." "That is, if I see an officer accepting gifts, I will report to the captain to see if the captain will actually send them to a court-martial." "I feel that the captain is serious. Let''s observe it first. If we can really avoid sending it, then we will have a better life in the future." "Don''t worry! I heard that the captain is backed by Americans. Mr. Captain got this ship directly from the Americans! General Morais asked the Americans many times but failed to let go. In the end, the Americans depended on the captain. It was only because of the face of Mr. that he agreed to allocate this transport ship to us." "Wow! Brother, you are so well-informed, are you serious?" "Cut, who do you look down on! I tell you that my news is absolutely reliable, but I can''t tell you the source of the news." "That would be great. With the backing of the Americans, the captain will definitely be able to do what he says. At least on our ship, he must have the final say. Then we will have a good life in the future and perform well. There is also a stipend! Then we are treated the same as American soldiers." "That''s right! Other officers are looking for their subordinates to take money. Mr. Captain not only doesn''t ask us to take money, but also gives us allowances. I have never heard of such a good officer." "Don''t spread the word about such a good thing! When the time comes, brothers from other ships will try their best to squeeze us on board, and it will be troublesome to squeeze our own position." "If I can''t promote it, I won''t promote it. But such a good officer, I will follow him. I will go wherever he tells me to go, and I will absolutely obey." "Didn''t the officer say that! What is required of us is to obey, obey, and obey again. I am afraid that the future will be difficult." "It''s hard, you can pass it! Just apply for transfer. If you dare to disobey Mr. Captain''s order, I will deal with you first without Mr. Captain''s hands!" "That''s right, we will firmly support Mr. Captain''s leadership from now on. If anyone dares to do bad things, I will shoot him black." Everyone talked a lot, and generally speaking, they were all good things. However, Fang Lang doesn''t mind everyone''s comments. Even if they refuse to accept, they must follow their own requirements, because this is not other places, this is the army, and obeying orders is a bounden duty. Even if someone dares to obey his orders, Fang Lang has a lot of means to deal with him. In fact, this means that the Brazilian army does not have a political commissar, and the Brazilians have not studied the history of Fang Lang''s motherland. If any modern person knows that Fang Lang personally pays for soldiers'' allowances, he can report to the higher authorities and let Fang Lang get shot directly. This kind of behavior is to buy the morale of the army. At that time, whether the soldiers under the ground will listen to the country or Fang Lang. I think Yuan Datou used this trick when he was training at Tianjin Station. Everyone only knows that Yuan Datou is not Knowing that the Manchu court knew, Yuan Datou finally took the top spot. That is to say, Brazil''s history is too short, there is no historical background, and everyone doesn''t quite understand the twists and turns. But Fang Lang, the instigator, knew it all in his heart, but he didn''t know how to say it! Fang Lang is leading the management personnel on board to familiarize himself with the various places of the ship according to the ship manual. Since many places are in Italian, no one understands what it means. Fang Lang can only apply for a translation from his superiors and put the ship on board. The position of each function switch of the switch is marked in Portuguese to avoid damage to the ship due to wrong operation. The next main job for everyone is to be familiar with the various equipment and functional areas on the ship, and eat and live on the ship every day. (end of this chapter) Chapter 21: back to brazil Chapter 21 Back to Brazil As the crew became more and more familiar with the situation of the ship, Fang Lang finally began to relax. After the third day of boarding the ship, under Fang Lang''s organization, everyone drove the ship out of the dock for the first time, and the two got along well. It took many hours to get back to the pier. After Fang Lang relaxed, he began to look for opportunities to visit Brigadier General Jackson and Colonel Atilio Parisi in turn. After all, the relationship requires more walking to get close! The rest of the time is not to communicate with Mr. Coburn about the company''s future plans, and to discuss the establishment of its own Brazilian branch at the port of Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It was when I started a formal date with Lilith, and was even invited by Lilith''s mother to eat at home. Fang Lang always felt that the atmosphere was weird when eating at home, and his mother-in-law always asked Fang Lang to sit with Lilith and Vivian. in the middle. After the meal, Mr. Coburn was dragged away, leaving Fang Lang sitting on the sofa, with a beautiful girl sitting beside him. This made Fang Lang feel uncomfortable. It''s not that Fang Lang doesn''t like the feeling of hugging left and right. This is the dream of many men! But you are hugging your girlfriend and sister-in-law at your girlfriend''s house, while your father-in-law and mother-in-law are busy in the kitchen, thinking about it will make your scalp tingle, okay? Fortunately, Lilith doesn''t seem to mind her sister Wei Wei''an being close to her. He even brought Weiwei''an out with him on a later date, which made Fang Lang''s claws stingy. If he wanted to get close to Lilith, his sister was right next to him. What''s wrong with this? Although Fang Lang would feel a little embarrassed, the two sisters didn''t care. After a few times, Fang Lang let go, mainly because they often stayed together and got used to it. The relationship heated up very quickly. Sometimes the two would kiss in front of Wei Wei''an, but when sending them home, Wei Wei''an also kissed him deeply like her sister when she said goodbye to him. Fang Lang''s scalp tingled with fright, and he looked at Lilith with his hairs standing on end, but Lilith looked at Fang Lang''s bewildered expression and laughed. If Fang Lang didn''t understand what it meant at this time, he would be inferior to a beast. In this way, Fang Lang spent a few days of immortality in Italy that he would never forget in his life. The order to finally set off was conveyed. This time Fang Lang will drive his own Gilas and form a small team with three transport ships arranged by Lieutenant Colonel Graham from the Global Trading Company. The **** fleet to Brazil to transport raw materials went south to Brazil. The one-way voyage took nearly twenty-five days, and in addition to the delay in Brazil, it was estimated that it would be two months later, that is, the first ten days of March of 1945, when we returned. Fang Lang reluctantly bid farewell to the two lovely sisters, and introduced Mr. Coburn to Mr. Boyan Gambino, and arranged the subsequent cigarette transactions. Please ask Brigadier General Jackson, Mr. Mayor of Naples and Lieutenant Colonel Rolando Crespo of the Italian Garrison to help take care of his business in Italy and his father-in-law''s family, and set off with everyone''s blessings. After a long voyage, passing through the heavy blockade of the German army, it finally arrived at the Natal Naval Base of the US military in the northeast corner of Brazil on January 20, 1945. The US **** fleet only escorted here, and the rest of the journey was escorted by the Brazilian Navy''s own fleet. Fortunately, the four ships of Fang Lang and his party belong to the Brazilian military, so there is no need to worry about their safety in Brazil. After another week of sea routes, I finally arrived at the Navy''s Rio de Janeiro Naval Base. The arrival of the fleet naturally had people waiting for reception, and some newspaper reporters came to make a large-scale report on the ceremony that the Brazilian Navy escorted the remains of the fallen soldiers thousands of miles away. In fact, the remains are all cremated urns, because it is impossible to transport the corpse from Italy to Brazil. If the corpse is transported for such a long distance and for such a long time, it will have rotted by the time it arrives. The reporters couldn''t see the other three transport ships that were loading and unloading the spoils. Among the military generals who received Fang Lang and others, Fang Lang unexpectedly found a familiar figure, it was Lieutenant Colonel Graham who was supposed to be on the Italian battlefield. Sure enough, shortly after the welcoming ceremony, soldiers came to inform Fang Lang, and Lieutenant Colonel Ragham informed him to meet him at the base headquarters. Fang Lang didn''t have time to think about it, he tidied up his military appearance, and boarded the jeep that came to pick him up. Walking around all the way, I finally came to an office. After the guard knocked on the door to report, he informed Fang Lang to go in. Fang Lang strode into the office without hesitation. I saw a middle-aged white man with a slightly fat body sitting on the main seat in the office. He had a red rosacea nose, a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and a colonel on his shoulder. Lieutenant Colonel Ragham, on the other hand, was sitting on the sofa in the reception area of ??the office the same way Fang Lang saw him for the first time, but this time he was obviously more relaxed than last time, as if he had returned to his own home. Fang Lang didn''t know who the colonel sitting behind the desk was, so he could only stand at attention and salute: "Reporting officer, Lieutenant Fang Lang of the Navy, was ordered to **** the remains of the fallen soldiers back to the country. The mission has been completed. I will report to you." The colonel officer in the chief seat said with a smile: "Lieutenant Fang, thank you for your hard work. Come and sit here. I heard Graham said that I would like to thank you for finding these three ships this time!" Said Pointing to the reception area where Ragham was sitting, he got up and walked over. Apparently they were planning to go to the guest lounge to talk together. Looking at this rhythm, there is something that requires Fang Lang''s efforts! However, the other party was an officer, so it was impossible for Fang Lang not to obey the command, so he could only thank him repeatedly. After the colonel officer sat down, he sat down by the sofa himself, without his buttocks firmly seated, looking very respectful. "Haha Fang, don''t be so nervous. We are all on our own. This is Colonel Adams Teach, the commander of the Rio de Janeiro Naval Base. This time, because I organized the delivery, although I don''t have time to **** the whole process, when receiving the delivery , and you have to come here by plane. In the future, you will need to hand over the goods directly to Colonel Teach. Do you understand what I mean!" Lieutenant Colonel Ragham laughed heartily and said. Fang Lang thought to himself, no wonder Lieutenant Colonel Ragham arrived in Rio de Janeiro before himself. It turned out that he was flying! This boat ride is really a waste of time, it seems that I will have to fly by myself in the future. Hearing that Ragham said that he was his own person, Fang Lang thought in his heart whose own person am I? Fang Lang also put on his own smile, and said to Colonel Teach: "Hello, sir, I just happen to know that there are such three ships, and the specific matters are discussed by Chief Ragham himself. I can Cant take the credit. Then he turned to Lieutenant Colonel Graham and said, I understand, sir, every time the supplies are transported back from now on, they will be handed over directly to Mr. Colonel. Without the warrants of the two, no one can remove a single screw. " Colonel Teach and Lieutenant Colonel Ragham looked at each other and smiled with satisfaction. Colonel Tiqi saw that Fang Lang was very interesting, so he didn''t say more about this topic. He didn''t want to talk too much about sensitive topics with a lieutenant officer who was not his confidant. After all, this was considered a public tool for private use. Changing the subject, he said, "I heard Lieutenant Fang is from Sao Paulo? Our place is very close to Sao Paulo! Are you planning to take two days to go home and have a look?" Fang Lang was happy when he heard what Colonel Teach said. This Colonel Teach has a bit of a timely style! I was thinking of finding a reason to go back home! He passed the ladder over here. "Yes, sir. My parents and family members are all in Sao Paulo. I have been away from home for two years, and I am really homesick. If possible, I hope to take two days off and go back to see my parents. I just don''t know what the officers are saying about the return trip. What are the arrangements for the shipping, and is the time urgent." "We mainly need to transport some soldiers on the return trip. The troops are not yet ready. The plan is to leave in ten days, so you have plenty of time. You can arrange for your crew to take turns to take a vacation, but you have to do it two days in advance Go back to Rio de Janeiro." It was Lieutenant Colonel Graham who answered Fang Lang''s question. Fang Lang always felt that Lieutenant Colonel Graham didn''t look like a subordinate when he was with Colonel Teach. Although the two were very close, but where is Colonel Teach''s rank, according to the official rules that Fang Lang understood, It would appear disrespectful to Colonel Teach that it should not always be Lieutenant Colonel Graham answering the questions. However, it is also possible that the two do not belong to the same system, and it is related that they do not belong to each other. It''s like Fang Lang is an officer belonging to the expeditionary navy, but he doesn''t actually belong to the jurisdiction of the two officers in front of him. Although Fang Lang didn''t understand what was going on now, it was impossible to show it. Since Colonel Atilio Parisi told him at the time that the mission of his ship was to dock with Lieutenant Colonel Lagham and be responsible for transporting the remains and trophies of the fallen soldiers, he must obey Graham now. Commanded by the Lieutenant Colonel. However, even if Graham explained to him his return time and transportation tasks. He also had to send a telegram to confirm with the expeditionary navy before executing it. (end of this chapter) Chapter 22: Keep promises Chapter 22 Fulfilling the Promise Since Lieutenant Colonel Graham said that there is plenty of time and everyone is allowed to take turns, Fang Lang certainly has no objection. He turned his head and heard Colonel Teach say: "Sao Paulo is less than 500 kilometers away from Rio, but it is too much to drive. Waste of time, so be it! I''ll ask the adjutant to book your plane ticket for this afternoon, and then I''ll also say hello to Captain Abu Bakhari Blackwell of the Sao Paulo Garrison and ask them to arrange a jeep to pick you up at the airport , convenient for you to travel at home." Colonel Teach is obviously a local snake, and the surrounding garrisons are all related. Without waiting for Fang Lang to answer, he opened his mouth and gave orders to the adjutant outside the office. After Colonel Tiqi finished giving the order, Fang Lang stood up and thanked: "Mr. Colonel, thank you so much! This will make it much more convenient for me to be at home. Don''t worry, the two officers, I will definitely go back early, absolutely There will be no delay in the trip." I thought to myself that I have no foundation in the country, and Colonel Teach is regarded as a local snake in Rio. It seems that I still need the help of Colonel Teach for my future development in Brazil. I will send some American native products over later to make friends. "Well, remember to return to the team on time, and write down the phone number of Mr. Colonel later. If you encounter any difficulties or need help in Sao Paulo, call as soon as possible. We are our own people. There should be nothing in Brazil. We can''t handle things." Colonel Graham opened his mouth again. "That''s right, I''ll leave my phone number for you later, and contact me as soon as I have something to do. I heard that there are a lot of Japanese descendants on your side. Although they are still quite obedient now, I heard that there is a kind of establishment among them." The underworld-like organization still has some small actions in private, the police may not be able to suppress them, if you encounter something that cannot be solved, call me, and I will directly contact the garrison to help you get rid of them." Colonel Teach Also spoke at the right time. Fang Lang didn''t expect that Colonel Teach, whom he met for the first time, would be so talkative, which made him a little uncomfortable. It seemed that Lieutenant Colonel Graham had something to say to him, otherwise he was worth a little lieutenant The colonel handed it over like this. Don''t think that a colonel is just a mid-level military officer. Brazil has a larger population than the motherland, and there are also more soldiers. At this time, Brazil''s land area of ??8.51 million square kilometers only has a population of 45 million. few people. With such a population base, the number of the Brazilian army is even more conceivable. At this time, the combined forces of the Brazilian navy, land and air force are less than 100,000, and some National Guards that are only responsible for domestic local security have to be eliminated. , and the Armed Police Force. The actual regular army is less than 80,000 people, and the Brazilian expeditionary force is 25,000 people selected from the 80,000 people. This is why the rank of General Morais, the commander of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, is only a major general. Of course, by the 21st century, the population of Brazil has increased to 210 million, and the number of troops has also increased to about 280,000. Among their so-called own people, Graham''s status should be higher than Titch''s, because Fang Lang has not yet integrated into their so-called own people''s team, so he doesn''t know the specific situation. He can only listen to what the officer says Just go with it. Fang Lang will never join any Brazilian party, because, according to the memory of Fang Lang''s later generations, Brazil was affected by the hostile relationship between the Soviet Union and the United States during the Cold War, and the domestic political situation was very turbulent. Even later, the army carried out a 21-year military dictatorship over Brazil. Actually, when Fang Lang just woke up in this era, he thought about taking his family and fleeing this chaotic country. But Fang Lang remembered that there were only tens of thousands of Brazilian Chinese in later generations, while there were more than 1.5 million Japanese. And in the memory of the original, the Chinese were oppressed by the Japanese in Brazil, and his father''s old-fashioned character, he would never want to leave the family farm. He felt that this might be the mission entrusted to him by the times. He must draw chestnuts from the fire and expand the number and living environment of Chinese in Brazil in a chaotic environment. Brazil is a country of immigrants. There is not much racial discrimination and there is no Chinese Exclusion Act, but it is the fifth largest country in terms of area and the seventh largest economy in the world in the 21st century. Since I have come to this era, I have Obliged to expand the influence of Chinese in Brazil. Of course, these are Fang Lang''s thoughts in his heart, and he will definitely not tell anyone. Fang Lang has no reason to refuse the olive branch extended by Colonel Tiqi. He hurriedly got up and saluted the two of them with gratitude on his face: "Thank you for your selfless help, sir, and my subordinates will definitely repay the two sirs." The two of them were also very happy to see Fang Lang''s statement, and they didn''t say any more. After Fang Lang said goodbye and left, he returned to his transport ship Gilas. At this time, on the Gilas, the cargo on board has been transported first. Fang Lang ordered the first mate de la Torre to assemble the crew. Soon the crew lined up neatly on overtime work. Fang Lang took out the roster and called his name and said: "Brothers, thank you for your excellent performance during this voyage, which allowed us to successfully complete this mission. Here I want to tell Good news for everyone, we have just received an order from the Ministry of the Navy, and we will send the supplementary soldiers back to the European front in ten days, so we will arrange for everyone to take two shifts of vacation, and each person will have four days of vacation." Hearing Fang Lang''s good news, the soldiers below cheered one after another. After everyone''s emotions gradually stabilized, Fang Lang continued to speak: "Then next, I want to fulfill my promise. What I hold in my hand is You should all know the statistical table of everyones performance on the ship during this period, because I have collected each of yous evaluations of other peoples performance. Each of yous evaluation scores come from three parts. First, the most important The most important must be my rating, secondly, the rating of your officers on your performance, and finally, the rating of your comrades around you. The higher the score, the more allowances, then, next, I will start to distribute our first Allowance, please read the name of the people, one by one to go forward to receive their own allowance." Next, Fang Lang began to announce everyone''s job standards and scores one by one according to the list. For example, Chief Mate de la Torre''s basic post allowance is 100 US dollars. Because of his outstanding work performance, everyone generally gives him a high score, so his score is as high as 120 points, so his stipend is 120 US dollars. . Soon each crew member received their own allowance, and everyone was smiling, comparing the allowance with each other. Of course, some crew members with poor performance received very little allowance, feeling a little resentful in their hearts. Fang Lang saw it in his eyes, and said calmly: "I know that some people get more allowances, and some get less, so let me explain here. First of all, everyone has seen that the basic post allowances of military officers are relatively high. Then I hope that you all will learn more when you are working, be serious about your work, and strive to improve your position. General Napoleon once said that a soldier who does not want to be a general is not a good soldier. Then I hope that everyone will be able to Become a general, of course, if any of you become a general, don''t forget to give me a stipend!" The soldiers laughed and the atmosphere was harmonious. "Secondly, there are very few brothers among you who perform poorly at work, so many brothers give low marks to brothers who perform poorly, so I hope that brothers who get low marks don''t think about it. Who gave you a low score, but look for the reason in yourself, whether there is something wrong with yourself, whether it is due to attitude or technical reasons, and turn it around after finding the reason, don''t wait until you are eliminated by everyone. Others Brothers, dont give up or scold those who are backward, but reach out to help them improve in due time. Only when each of us becomes stronger, will our collective become stronger and become stronger. unbeatable." The brothers below erupted into warm applause, which lasted for a long time. Fang Lang pressed his hand and said: "Finally, I would like to ask you one thing. Brothers on vacation, help me find crew members by your side. I need crew members who dare to run ocean transportation. Everyone has seen that and come back with us." The Brazilian transport ship, the owner of this company, entrusted me with the job when he left Italy. He promised me that if he helped find a qualified crew member, he would give me ten dollars as an introduction fee, and the crews basic salary is fifty dollars per month, there are extra subsidies when performing missions in dangerous areas during wartime. Everyone knows that a monthly salary of fifty dollars is a high salary in Brazil, so I hope that if you have friends, please help introduce them. And the ten dollars I still don''t like the introduction fee, so I will give the ten dollars to whoever introduces it. This is what I want to talk about today, and I will hand it over to the first mate." Looking at the radiant expressions of the soldiers below, Fang Lang waved his hand and gave the position to the first mate de la Torre, asking him to arrange the maintenance, sanitation and vacation scheduling of the ship. (end of this chapter) Chapter 23: Close to hometown Chapter 23 Shyness near hometown After explaining the things on the ship. Fang Lang then recruited the three captains of the Global Trading Company and the personnel arranged by the company to establish a branch company to his side for face-to-face instruction. Only then did he pack his luggage, put it on a backpack, buy a pack of cigarettes at random on the street, stuff American souvenirs into it, turn around and return to the naval base, and knocked on the door of Colonel Teach''s office. Colonel Teach saw Fang Lang who came in with his luggage and pushed the door, and hurried forward to stop the other party''s military salute: "Lieutenant Fang, are you ready to go? I''ll ask my adjutant to bring the ticket over immediately." Obviously thought that Fang Lang was here to pick up the ticket. Seeing Colonel Teach''s movements, Fang Lang said quickly: "Mr. Colonel, don''t worry about the air ticket. It won''t be too late to go to your adjutant to get it when I go out. This time I came here mainly because I have something to ask for your help." Colonel Titch heard that Fang Lang needed his own help, without hesitation, he said, "Oh! If you have anything to say, just say it, come, let''s sit down and talk." After speaking, he took Fang Lang and sat down on the sofa in the reception area. Fang Lang said unceremoniously: "Mr. Colonel like this, isn''t the transport ship that came with us this time belonged to Global Trading Co., Ltd.! Their person in charge just found me and said that they want to invest in building a branch in Rio de Janeiro. Buy a dedicated dock and ask if I can get your help." "It''s such a small matter! Everyone is welcome to invest in Brazil, and they can just go to the city government to discuss this kind of thing!" The army has no way to intervene in this kind of investment, so Colonel Tiqi said with a little doubt. "Of course, they have actually set off for the city government. However, because they are not familiar with the place. So, I asked if there is anyone I know who can take care of them. They will not treat their friends badly." "Oh! I don''t know, what kind of care do they want?" "I''m not very clear about the specifics. They mainly want me to communicate first. If you are willing to make a friend here, their person in charge will make a special trip to visit you later." "Of course I would like to make friends. You tell them that I won''t go out today, and ask them to come and find me at any time. I asked you to make a special trip for such a trivial matter. It seems that this company has a good relationship with you, doesn''t it?" Colonel Teach obviously said with a tentative meaning. "Hi! From what you said, the boss of this company is a friend I met when I took the American assessment. Since we are friends, of course everyone helps each other, right? I believe you will become friends too, right?" Fang Lang He also deliberately blurred his relationship with this company. "Haha. That''s right, we are already friends, and we are also good friends with the Americans." Colonel Teach laughed loudly. Fang Lang felt as if he had caught something, but he seemed to have caught nothing. Without thinking too much, he said: "That''s right, we are all friends. Since this is the case, I will go back and inform them, and I will go home first. See you when we come back." After Fang Lang finished speaking, he got up and prepared to leave. After Colonel Teach saw Fang Lang get up, a cigarette was missing from the seat. I did not forget to remind: "Okay, we will see you when we come back, and don''t forget to bring your cigarettes." Fang Lang smiled and said: "This is the first meeting here, I gave you a little souvenir, I hope you don''t dislike it." After speaking, he turned and left. Colonel Teach couldn''t help being stunned. What are the local products in the United States? Looking at the packaging of this cigarette, it is obviously a local cigarette! It was still opened, and when I picked it up, I saw a few bundles of green things inside. Hastily raised his head to look at Fang Lang, only to see that Fang Lang had already walked away with his backpack on his back. I couldn''t help sighing in my heart: "Lieutenant Fang is really a good friend." Fang Lang went out of the naval base and stopped a taxi, and went directly to the airport in Rio de Janeiro. At this time, the Rio de Janeiro airport is not comparable to that in China at this time. At this time, the Rio de Janeiro airport was invested and constructed by Pan American Airlines. An international airport with direct flights to New York has opened. It can be seen from this that Brazil at this time is actually very developed. If it hadn''t been for the continuous turmoil during the Cold War, I believe Brazil''s development would have been very rapid. Airplanes are indeed much faster than ships. Even if it is a propeller plane of this era, Fang Lang successfully arrived in his original hometown of Sao Paulo, Brazil after less than two hours of flight. The Sao Paulo Airport at this time is very simple. The person who picked up the plane was directly on the side of the tarmac, so Fang Lang saw two military Willys jeeps parked beside them at a glance. Knowing that this is the special car arranged by Colonel Teach for him to contact the garrison, he went straight up and saw a captain and officer get off the co-pilot seat of one of the cars and look at him. Obviously this is the Abuba that Colonel Teach said Captain Cary Blackwell. Fang Lang stood at attention and saluted: "Hello, sir, I am Fang Lang, Lieutenant of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force Navy." Several people on the other side also gave a military salute, and the captain officer said: "Lieutenant Fang, hello, I am Captain Abubakari Blackwell, I have received an order from Colonel Teach to pick up the plane, welcome home." After speaking, he came up and gave Fang Lang a warm hug. "Thank you so much Captain Blackwell, if you don''t have a car, it''s really inconvenient here!" Fang Lang said politely. "Haha. You''re welcome. Let''s get in the car. I''ll take you home. We''ll talk as we walk. You have to tell me how you killed German devils on the European battlefield." Captain Blackwell was a yellow-brown man. The skin is of mixed blood, and he is very enthusiastic. Obviously, he is very yearning to go to the battlefield with real swords and guns. Seeing two cars, I knew that one was specially reserved for myself. I should give myself away to give myself momentum. After all, Colonel Teach also said that the Japanese in Sao Paulo are not particularly safe now, and Fang Lang also wants to be with the locals. The garrison should make more contacts and make friends. Of course he would not refuse, and boarded Blackwell''s jeep directly. The two chatted about their experience in Europe all the way, and the vehicle also drove towards Santos Port in Sao Paulo. Fang Lang''s home is in the suburbs near Santos Port. Captain Blackwell in the car heard that Fang Lang had captured many Italians on the battlefield and killed several German soldiers. He was amazed and envious. Later, it was even more regrettable to hear that he was transferred to the navy after being injured. He obviously felt that Fang Lang had missed the opportunity to kill all sides on the battlefield. Under the guidance of Fang Lang, the vehicle arrived at the Chinese village where Fang Lang was located. Fang Lang saw that the villagers on the road were all familiar faces, and they called out to uncles and uncles. Everyone just looked at Fang Lang in military uniform, but there was no response come over. They didn''t realize who it was until Fang Lang called them, and they all said hello. I still dont forget to discuss with my neighbors: Isnt this the boss of the Fang family? I heard that he ran away from home two years ago to enlist in the army. Now that hes back, he looks like hes doing well! Hes in the jeep! "That''s right. At that time, the old man of the Fang family was very anxious, but he couldn''t find it after searching for a long time. I heard that he sent a letter home later, so I realized that he was a soldier." "Isn''t it! The wild boys who played well with this kid at that time were all pulled over for questioning one by one, but no one said where they went. I remember that I passed out a few times in a **** panic!" "There is a lot of chaos outside now, going out to serve as a soldier is a dangerous job, I never imagined that I can come back with a full body now. This is also a fate." "Being able to come back in a jeep, it seems that I have made a fool of myself. Sure enough, only naughty children dare to break into it, and maybe they will make a name for themselves!" "Then don''t tell me, how many of the clothes you wear when you go out are really famous! Don''t tell me about those who didn''t come back after going out." "Hey! Hey! Don''t make noise, everyone! It''s a happy event for the boss of the Fang family to come back. When the time comes, everyone will go and have a look and congratulate him." Everyone''s discussion did not fall into Fang Lang''s ears. Looking at the surrounding environment, the original body''s childhood memories flashed through his mind from time to time. Every path, every small ditch, has a figure left when he was a child. Fang Lang''s mood became more complicated as he got closer to home. Perhaps because he could see Fang Lang''s mood, Captain Blackwell, who had been chatting all the way, also calmed down, looking at this quiet and peaceful village quietly. Everyone who greeted Fang Lang, although he could not understand the Chinese spoken by Fang Lang and the others, he could also see the enthusiasm of the villagers. Fang Lang thought in his heart, wondering if his father would not let him in. After all, the father and son stumbled every time they talked without a word. At that time, they ran away from home because they stopped studying and didn''t want to stay. Living on his own farm, he had to go out to the big city to see the world, and had a big fight with his father before leaving home in anger. My mother, who loves me the most, doesn''t know how to be sad! While thinking, the car has already driven to the gate of his small courtyard. (end of this chapter) Chapter 24: wanderer home Chapter 24 The wanderer returns home The Fang family''s house is a large yard near the river. The structure of the roof can be seen in some Chinese style, but the layout of the house is a bit European style, but the area around the middle of the yard has been tidied up like a Jiangnan water town. the taste of. After the car stopped, Fang Lang asked Captain Blackwell to get out of the car and enter the house for a cup of coffee. The captain said that considering Fang Lang had been away from home for so long, he should not disturb Fang Lang''s reunion with his family, and he would make a special trip to visit home tomorrow. After tugging at the door a few times, seeing the firm attitude of the other party, they no longer insisted. They just agreed to come to the house for coffee tomorrow, and they left a jeep at the door of the house, got in the car and left. When Fang Lang turned around and looked at the door of his house, he saw his family staring at him blankly at the door. When he turned around and saw his face clearly, his mother, Yang Xiu''er, had already run over with tears in her eyes. Fang Lang didn''t say anything, put down the luggage in his hand, knelt on the ground with a plop, and slammed his head three times to his grandfather, father, and mother, and shouted: "Grandpa, parents, unfilial son Fang Lang I''m back, let me kowtow to you." Fang Lang didn''t know why he knelt down and kowtowed directly. Thinking about it, it might be the original owner''s natural reaction, and he expressed his apology for occupying the original owner''s body. Mother Yang Xiu''er had already run over, grabbed Fang Lang''s arm, and looked at her son''s flushed forehead and kept muttering: "My son! You are back, you are back." While talking wiping tears. Fang Lang was also said to have red eye circles, and said repeatedly: "I''m sorry, Mom, it''s because my son is ignorant, which made you worry." Mother just kept wiping away her tears, and said in her mouth: "Just come back, just come back, hurry up, come in the house quickly! Tao, come quickly and help your brother with the luggage." Looking at his younger brother who was called by his mother, Fang Lang was not polite, and casually threw the luggage in his hand to his younger brother Fang Tao and said, "Tao''er, you haven''t seen you in the past two years, but you have grown a lot taller! You have grown up!" Young man. No one has bullied you for the past two years since my brother left!" Fang Tao, who took the luggage from Fang Lang''s hand, staggered under the weight and almost lost his footing, also said with a smile on his face: "Brother, you are back, huh! This bag is heavy enough. No one bullied me! Brother Xuewu and they all protected me when I was in school. We are not many Chinese, and we are very united in school. Now after Brazil entered the war, those Japanese classmates also stopped. "That''s good. If there are still people who bully you, you tell my brother, and my brother will directly lead the soldiers to clean them up." After speaking, he patted his brother on the shoulder and walked towards the grandfather and father at the door of the house. came to grandpa, held his arm and said, "Grandpa, I''m back, your body is still strong!" The old man is already seventy-three years old, but his body is quite strong. He has to punch once a day. As the old saying goes, seventy-three and eighty-four are two hurdles for the elderly. Longevity. Based on Fang Lang''s observation, the old man dare not say that he will live another ten years, but there is no problem at all if he lives five or six years. "Old man, I have a very strong body. I punch every morning, and I can eat and sleep. You stinky boy, you are promising, and you have learned to run away from home. The old man thought that his eldest grandson was gone, so it was embarrassing." A few tears." The old man said very open-mindedly. Fang Lang thought in his heart, now your grandson doesn''t know if he is gone, but don''t worry, I will help him to be filial to you. "I''m sorry, grandpa is unfilial to his grandson, so I let you worry about it." "It''s good to be back, it''s good to be back safely! Talk to your dad! Don''t quarrel anymore, you know?" The old man patted Fang Lang''s hand that was holding his arm, and turned to Fang Lang who was standing beside him. Father winked. Fang Lang understood, and said to his father with an old face, "Dad, I''m back. I''m sorry, but my son is not good. I shouldn''t have left without saying goodbye. I made you worry." Father Fang Xinshan, under the discipline of his grandfather, is a traditional and conservative person with a strong family concept. After his grandmother passed away, his grandfather no longer took care of the family affairs. Therefore, the actual head of the family is the father. In Fang Lang''s impression, his father has always been very strict and believed that filial sons are born under the stick, so the two brothers Fang Lang and Fang Tao were often asked to follow the family law since they were young. But after his father''s stick education, they are indeed two sons with completely different personalities. Fang Lang has never been afraid of being beaten, and has been mischievous since he was a child. Protected, so he was not beaten and died halfway. The younger brother Fang Tao is a monkey who was frightened by killing chickens to warn monkeys. He was scared by his father''s way of teaching his brother when he was a child, so he didn''t dare to resist. He was very obedient and became a good boy. Classmates bully. When Fang Lang was at home, someone bullied his younger brother, and it was Fang Lang who beat him up in the past. Gradually, everyone knew that he had an older brother who was like a demon king, and no one dared to bully him. This is why Fang Lang would ask him if he had been bullied as soon as he came back. Fang Lang could see that his father''s eyes were slightly red, and the fist in his hand was clenched and loosened, loosened and clenched again, obviously trying to calm down his mood. His mother was worried that his father would say something hurtful again, and stood by his father He grabbed his hand and patted it lightly. Finally, the father just said "Go into the house!" and took the lead, turned around and entered the small courtyard. The mother next to him was obviously relieved, followed behind his father, waved again and again, grabbed Fang Lang''s arm and walked home, as if afraid that Fang Lang would run away again. After everyone entered the house, they moved out a few stools in the living room, and gathered together to learn about Fang Lang''s current situation. Fang Lang also picked up some easy things to talk about, and he didn''t dare to talk about his injuries. He just said that he saved an American on the battlefield, and then the other party helped find a relationship and transferred Fang Lang away from the front line. Now he is in charge of managing a group of people. A transport ship, responsible for traveling between Brazil and Italy, so I have the opportunity to go home to visit relatives. After listening to it, everyone was relieved. Only the old man followed the grandfather to experience the turmoil in his hometown and knew the dangers on the battlefield. The experience must not be as light as Fang Lang''s description, but the old man will definitely not be in front of his family To expose Fang Lang''s avoidance of the seriousness. Just when everyone relaxed, my father said: "The sea is not safe, there are German submarines everywhere, have you forgotten why Brazil joined the war? Isn''t it because German submarines attacked Brazilian transport ships?" ?" After hearing what his father said, the mother''s heart rose again, and she looked at Fang Lang worriedly and said, "Son, is that so? Then can we not go!" Fang Lang couldn''t laugh or cry when he heard his mother''s words. He was about to comfort him, but his father said: "Women, what nonsense, do you think being a soldier is the same as being at home? Do what you want, and don''t do it if you don''t want to If you dont go, you will be arrested and shot as a deserter. His father''s words made his mother tremble in fright, and tears were about to come out of her eyes again. Fang Lang said quickly: "Mom! Don''t worry! Now my son''s ships are operating under the heavy protection of the **** fleet. The warship is very safe. Besides, the Allied forces have counterattacked into the European continent, and the Axis powers have few days left to jump around. I guess the war will end within this year." In order to dispel his mother''s doubts, Fang Lang accidentally revealed the history. But he doesn''t mind, because first of all, this is his family, and there is nothing he can''t say. Secondly, everyone on both sides of the war now knows in their hearts that the balance of victory has been tilted in favor of the Allies, and victory is only a matter of time. Fang Lang''s words really aroused his father''s interest, and he rarely asked Fang Lang: "How do you know that the war will end within this year! You, a soldier, don''t listen to the propaganda of the army. These are the officers, encouraging you Desperately advertised like this on purpose. Unexpectedly, his father would be so knowledgeable, and he was not guided by the overwhelming publicity outside. This gave Fang Lang a new understanding of this feudal parent who had never been out of St. Paul. "What eyes do you have, kid? Why am I wrong?" Father Fang Xinshan found that Fang Lang was looking at himself with a strange look, and couldn''t help but said. (end of this chapter) Chapter 25: censorship Chapter 25 Review of Books and Newspapers You must know that in this era, the guiding role of public opinion is not understood by ordinary people, especially the people in Brazil generally have a low level of education, and my father is a feudal conservative who only completed junior high school education. "I saw that the newspapers also said that the Allied Powers are in full swing, and we will soon win. My brother is right!" Fang Tao, the younger brother, also rarely made his own comments. "Aren''t you stupid in reading, can you believe what the newspapers say? It used to be that the relationship between Germany and us is so good, but after the Yankees came, the Germans became evil! I taught It is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books, and it is better to have no books than to believe in books. The wisdom handed down from our ancestors has been completely forgotten by you after a few years in foreign schools." After hearing Fang Tao''s words, his father said loudly The angry reprimand made Fang Lang, who was about to speak, admire his father''s wisdom even more. "The teacher said that the news has three characteristics: authenticity, timeliness, and accuracy. The most important thing in news reports is to ensure the truth. If you don''t even believe the news, what are you going to believe?" Fang Tao poked his neck and blushed rebutted his father. Fang Lang looked at his younger brother at this time, and felt that he was completely different from the only brother in Yuanshen''s memory. Could it be that his younger brother had entered the rebellious period, and now he took over his class and started to argue with his father. "How many times have I told you that with your character of believing what others say, you shouldn''t study journalism. I told you to go home quietly and follow me to manage the family business, but you didn''t listen, you wait Let''s go! Sooner or later, someone will sell it and count the money!" The father shook his head and sighed angrily, obviously feeling that he had failed in educating his children. Seeing that his younger brother wanted to refute, Fang Lang stretched out his hand to stop his younger brother who was about to speak out, and said, "My brother! Dad is really right this time. You must know that our Brazilian government is now established according to the Germans. Yes, the three major characteristics of the news you mentioned are ideal, but dont forget that the Brazilian Propaganda Department has a censorship system, do you think the government will really let the common people know whats going on in the world? "But I read in the newspaper two days ago that the Propaganda Department has abolished the censorship of books and newspapers! Even if you are right, the news we see after the abolition will always be true!" Fang Tao said. Determined. "Oh! Has the Ministry of Propaganda abolished the censorship of books and newspapers now?" Didn''t expect the government to be so bold and not afraid of social chaos? Fang Lang is not opposed to freedom of the press, but sometimes freedom of the press is not necessarily a good thing. The intertwining of various ideas will cause social turmoil. Maybe this is the root cause of the chaos in Brazil. But Fang Lang thought about it, this is also a good thing! The role of the mouthpiece of public opinion, as a later generation, Fang Lang couldn''t be more clear. It seems that it is very necessary for me to invest in the establishment of my own media organization. Newspapers, radio stations, and later television are a big industry! Before his brother could answer, Fang Lang said again: "Brother, did you major in journalism at school?" "Yes! Our school''s journalism major is very famous in Brazil." Fang Tao is obviously very proud of being admitted to this major. "Is there any better newspaper office in Sao Paulo? What if I buy a newspaper office and hand it over to you to run it in the future!" The whole family looked at Fang Lang dumbfounded. Aren''t everyone discussing the international situation? Why did you jump to buying a newspaper office for your younger brother? I haven''t started eating yet! It''s like this after a few dishes. "Everyone, don''t look at me like this. Going out to join the army this time can be regarded as gaining knowledge. At least I feel that I am no longer the ignorant boy when I ran away from home. It is said that my father just asked me why I thought the Allies could win. Xinguo is dying. I didn''t read it in the newspaper, nor did I listen to the propaganda of the army. I came to the conclusion through my own observation and analysis. First of all, I used to be in the army and fought on the front line. I found that The age span of German soldiers is very large, the oldest is fifty years old, and the youngest is fifteen years old. What does this mean? It means that the war potential of the Germans is about to be exhausted, and the young people are about to be exhausted, so they will be recruited Old and weak. Secondly, now I am a naval transport captain. Although the Germans are blocking the Atlantic Ocean and transport ships are constantly being attacked, I have been to the United States. The United States now manufactures a 7,000-ton Liberty Ship. It can be completed in less than four days, and at least three ships are launched every day. And this number far exceeds the number sunk by Germany. The result of the change is obvious. The Allies can get a steady stream of supplies , and the Axis powers are already surrounded, isn''t the outcome clear at a glance?" Hearing Fang Lang''s analysis, several people couldn''t help but looked at each other, feeling that Fang Lang in front of them was very strange. After a while, the father slapped his thigh and said: "Okay, my son is promising, and his analysis is well-founded and clear, so that ordinary people like us can understand clearly. Tao''er, learn from your brother, Don''t follow others blindly, have your own mind and ideas. You know!" Fang Lang didn''t expect to hear words of praise from his father. This is really the sun coming out of the west. The mother also looked at herself with joy, and looked at her father from time to time, looking very relieved. Fang Tao fell into deep thinking. Unexpectedly, his brother made an in-depth analysis and dissection based on the two details he observed, and came to his own conclusions, instead of simply being as powerful, brave, and brave as the Allied soldiers in the newspaper. justice. How evil and incompetent the enemy is. It seemed to be opening up a whole new world for Fang Tao. After teaching the youngest son, Fang''s father pointed the finger at Fang Lang again: "You, a soldier, suddenly said that you want to buy a newspaper office for your brother to run. How much money do you have! It''s just playing the piano." "Dad, I''m not just talking about it. I have experienced a lot of things outside in the past two years. I often recall the things I was bullied by little Japan. We Chinese, even though we have joined the Brazilian nationality, can''t change our skin color. We must not forget our ancestors, we must not forget our Yanhuang blood. Now we Chinese are in Brazil, the United States, Europe, Southeast Asia, and all over the world. Our life is very difficult, and we will be discriminated against and treated differently. I After thinking about it for a long time, there are many reasons, such as the disunity of the Chinese outside, but I think the most fundamental reason is that we do not have a strong motherland. Now the motherland is being invaded by a small Japan, but we can do nothing, even in Brazil. We are being bullied by Japan, whose population is dozens of times larger. I am not reconciled, and I dont want to continue like this. "Okay, my eldest grandson! Good! Well done!" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, the old man was the first to stand up, flushed and excited, clapping his hands and shouting. "I can''t think of someone on our side who can have such an outstanding grandson. I have no regrets in this life, old man. Boy, tell me what you want to do. Old man, I will call the old brothers over now and fully support you." Father Fang Xinshan also stood up, staring blankly at his eldest son, as if he had seen a ghost. Hit on the leg by the old man''s cane, "What are you doing here, get out of the way. Big grandson, tell me, do you already have ideas and ideas?" Fang Lang also looked at this old man who had been silent and never commented on family affairs with a dazed expression. I don''t understand why there is such a sudden reaction. The younger brother and mother were also dumbfounded when they saw their father being beaten with a stick. Fortunately, Fang Lang heard the old man''s question, and said affirmatively: "Yes, I do have some ideas, and I have already started to implement them." "Okay, you don''t need to talk about it now. Xinshan, go and invite all my old brothers from our village over now, and say that I have something to talk to them about." Seeing that his father was still in a daze, he hit him with a cane again . "Not yet!" Father hurriedly avoided and said, "Oh! I''m going now." (end of this chapter) Chapter 26: reunion Chapter 26 Party Looking at the embarrassed figure of their father, the mother and son looked at the old man with a somewhat confused expression. Seeing the expressions of these people, the old man didn''t take it seriously and said: "Tao''er, go and call your uncle back, and say that his eldest nephew is back. Daughter-in-law, go cook some dishes, your son hasn''t eaten yet!" Let''s eat and talk." Fang Lang watched the old man walking back and forth with a cane in the living room, with a smile on his face, for fear that the old man would accidentally fall, he stepped forward and said softly: "Grandpa, be careful, don''t fall, let''s sit down and take your time." Shall we chat?" "Haha, Lang''er! What you said just now can be regarded as speaking to my heart. I still remember that when your grandfather passed away, you called me and the old brother who came with him to the bedside. Repeatedly told us not to forget where our roots are, and where our ancestors are. Before they passed away, the elders of the older generation would gather us young people together, and repeatedly emphasized to us that we must not forget our roots and our roots. .However, I found that now in your generation, many people dont remember their ancestors very much, and some people cant even speak or write our words. We old people often Gathering together, I was anxious and angry, and I didn''t know what to do. However, what you said today made me see hope again. Later, you can talk to us old guys about your thoughts and ideas, you Don''t worry, I will support you with all my strength." The old man''s face was full of excitement and relief, with tears in his eyes and a ruddy complexion, making him feel ten years younger. "Okay, Grandpa, calm down first. I''ll pack my luggage first, and I''ll talk to you guys later. You can also help me refer to my thoughts. One person counts short!" Fang Lang said while helping the old man He sat down on his recliner. The old man waved to Fang Lang, motioned him to clean up first, and said in his mouth: "Hurry up and clean up, your dad and the others should be quick." Fang Lang looked at his grandfather again, and saw him sitting on the recliner, his fingers still tapping the armrest rhythmically, obviously in a good mood. He just smiled and said no more, took his luggage and walked to his room. After Fang Lang cleaned up his room, washed his face, and came down, he found that the living room of his house was full of people, at least there were more than 30 people, and there were only a dozen or so old people from his grandfather''s generation. Most of the rest are their sons and grandchildren. Because they are all from the same village, most of them are elders who watched Fang Lang grow up, so Fang Lang hurried forward to say hello one by one. Fang Lang''s uncle Fang Xinshui is also among them. Fang Xinshui is the youngest son of his grandfather. Because he was spoiled by his grandmother since he was a child, he is very naughty. When he was studying in school, his grades were not very good, but he was forced to learn boxing kung fu by his grandfather since he was a child, so he is a good fighter in fighting and fighting, and he is also a well-known figure of the level of the world-renowned devil king. Later, as he grew older, he began to hang out in society. When Fang Lang was young, he had already formed a small Chinese gang in downtown Sao Paulo with his friends who grew up together. Because guns are not allowed in Brazil, I wear casual clothes every day and show off with a pistol in my belt. It was useless for grandpa to teach him many times. Once he had a big fight with grandpa, he simply moved out, but he often came to visit grandpa and father. My uncle has liked Fang Lang very much since he was a child. His uncle married a white Portuguese wife and gave birth to two daughters. People in this era are generally very patriarchal, and the uncle''s family concept is also very strong, so Fang Lang is better than his own daughter. I remember that when Fang Lang ran away from home, he originally wanted to go to his uncle. However, when he was rejected by his uncle and wanted to send him home, he escaped and had nowhere to go before he went to serve as a soldier. A group of people gathered in the living room, listening to the grandfather recalling the last wishes of his great-grandpa and the older generation, and blamed himself with a few grandpas for not educating their children and grandchildren well. Many younger generations could not even speak Chinese. I can speak, and I cant write Chinese characters anymore. The middle-aged people and young people in the room are all red-faced and bow their heads. In the end, the old man said what he heard from his grandson Fang Lang today, and everyone in the room looked sideways at Fang Lang frequently, and the uncle put his hand on Fang Lang''s shoulder and tried hard pinched. "The words my eldest grandson said to me today made me happy from the bottom of my heart. There is still hope for the tasks assigned by the older generation. I originally wanted to ask some of us old guys to come over for a chat, but since we are here If you are the head of the family, let''s talk together. Let''s see what my big grandson thinks, and see if I can fulfill the last wishes of my parents. It will also allow us to have the face to see our ancestors when we are old." After finishing speaking, he continued He waved to Fang Lang and said, "Come on, Fang Lang, these are your grandfathers, uncles, and no outsiders. Today we can say whatever we have, and talk about your thoughts with us big guys. We I will also give you the details." Fang Lang was not polite either. When he came back this time, he originally wanted to recruit some helpers in the village. After all, he certainly couldn''t conquer the world by himself. It''s better now. If he can convince these people on the scene, he can basically get The support of the whole village. "Grandpas, uncles, uncles, I haven''t seen you for more than two years. Without me going to your house to make troubles, you should have enjoyed two years of happiness. I didn''t expect that just after I came back, the old man called everyone together again. I''m causing trouble for everyone." Everyone was laughing, and some people were still laughing and scolding the devil incarnation, you little bastard. After everyone''s voices quieted down, Fang Lang said again: "In the past two years, I have seen a lot of the world, learned a lot of knowledge, suffered a lot, and suffered a lot of grievances. But in the past two years It also made me grow up. I have met many Chinese people from other countries, such as the United States, Europe, and Southeast Asia. I found that we Chinese people have been wronged all over the world. The Chinese are weak and can be bullied. In many places, only the Chinese are robbed. The Chinese are fat sheep in their eyes. There are even many Chinese who have completely regarded themselves as foreigners, and look down on the Chinese, or even themselves. In other foreigners After being bullied, he vented it on Chinese people like him." Fang Lang''s words made everyone in the room lower their heads, and some even felt the same thing about the redness of their eyes. "I don''t understand why? Are we Chinese inferior? We are one of the nations with the longest cultural history in the world! When we have started to wear silk clothes and have a city of hundreds of thousands of people, these foreigners still Drinking blood and living the life of primitive people. Think about our prosperous Han and Tang Dynasties, and the glorious dynasty that came from all over the world. Look now, a small little Japan dares to send troops to attack their suzerain country. Even these Japanese immigrants in Brazil We are all riding on our heads and shitting. What is the reason? Because of the corruption and incompetence of the Manchu Qing, our motherland has fallen behind, and if we fall behind, we will be beaten! This is an eternal truth. Because our motherland is backward , those of us overseas wanderers cant straighten our backs and dare not speak loudly, because you dont have a strong motherland behind you to support you. Some people may think that I am a Brazilian now, and I have Brazilian nationality when I go out. Yes Is that so? When you walk on the street, people see your skin color, black hair, black eyes, will others think you are Brazilian? Anyway, I have never encountered it. Fang Lang stopped, looked at everyone''s expressions, waited for everyone to digest for a while, and said: "I don''t want to be bullied anymore, I don''t want to be looked down upon by others, and I don''t want to be able to straighten up, so I am determined to do What, maybe my own strength is very small and I can''t change too many things, but I believe there will be many Chinese brothers like me who are unwilling to live this kind of life anymore, and we don''t want our children and grandchildren to continue to live like this I dont want my future generations to feel ashamed because they are descendants of Chinese. So, this time I come back and want to find some like-minded brothers to do something with me. "Okay, Lang''er, what you said speaks to my heart. I''ve had enough. No matter what you want to do, count me in. I''m your uncle, and I fully support you." Fang Xinshui With an excited face and flushed face, it was obvious that he was not less angry. (end of this chapter) Chapter 27: direction Chapter 27 Direction The whole room is responding enthusiastically, the crowd is passionate. Many old people even started to wipe away tears. I don''t know whether I am thinking of my own experience or worrying about my children and grandchildren. Fang Lang carefully observed everyone''s expressions, because some things cannot be spread out to be known by others, so Fang Lang must be cautious. Secrets are harmful." So there are some things that Fang Lang doesn''t want to say in public, but seeing the excitement in front of him, he knows that what he hides will hurt everyone''s hearts, and he has to reveal some things on the bright side . "Everyone knows that the current motherland is being ravaged by the Japanese, and the Axis countries will soon be finished. My idea is that our people can go to the motherland to receive some refugees to Brazil, expanding the population base of our Chinese in Brazil, It is best to be able to immigrate on a large scale and change our population from a minority to a majority in certain areas. Looking at the current government''s approach, I believe that the government will soon begin to promote real democratic elections, and population means votes. As long as there are votes, the status of our Chinese will soon be improved." Fang Lang will not tell everyone that he knows that China will have a few years of chaos in the future, so he wants to save some people, reduce some casualties, and at the same time expand the proportion of Chinese in Brazil. "It is right to expand the population of our Chinese. If our population is larger than that of the Japanese, we will not be as passive as in the previous period." Someone said in the crowd. "But the motherland is so far away from us, the cost of transportation is very high! We don''t have so much money to carry out large-scale immigration!" And humane. "Yes! After people come, we have to make arrangements to make a living. With our current strength, if people come, we can''t arrange them!" "That''s right! Although the current population of Sao Paulo is not particularly large, if we immigrate on a large scale, will it cause other people''s resentment?" "What are you thinking! The Brazilian government is still welcoming immigrants, but if we want to expand the population in Sao Paulo to a situation where we can influence votes in the future, it may not be realistic. Maybe we need to shift the main battlefield." The following discussions reached Fang Lang''s ears. Fang Lang had already prepared for it. He knew that when there were more people, there would be more ideas and more mouths. Many things often failed because of this situation before it started. Therefore, Fang Lang''s idea is that everyone can establish an organization, not a party, it is best to keep it secret, just like the Skull and Bones and Freemasons in the United States, secretly manipulating everything. But he definitely won''t directly bring it up here, he can only observe silently, combine his original memory, and inspect each person to see who he can absorb. People who work. However, everyone''s discussion annoyed Fang Xinshui. He is a person who can do it without beeping. He scolded: "What are you arguing about? Everyone has such an idea. Why didn''t I see you bring it up? Now that Lang''er has brought it up, you are all excited, right! If you are arguing again, get out. Lang''er, tell me about our relationship." Just do what should be done, from now on my gang will obey your command, we will do whatever you say." Fang Xinshui is a devil in the world, and he did well in Sao Paulo, so he is very prestigious among young people. When everyone heard Fang Xinshui''s words, they also slowly quieted down, and they all looked at Fang Lang again, waiting to see what he could do. "There are too many people talking about some things, and I can''t directly say them here. I can only say that I already have an idea in my heart, and it has already begun to be implemented. This time I will recruit some of my own people to participate in this aspect when I come back. Thinking about work, I dont know if there are any people in the family of the elders who are willing to do something for us Chinese. It must be someone who sincerely wants to change the situation of our Chinese. There are not many people now, but they must be capable and dare to fight Fight hard. If you confirm that you want to participate, arrange for them to come to my house tomorrow night to find me." Everyone was a little disappointed when they heard what Fang Lang said. Many people even felt that Fang Lang was hiding it, it was not refreshing enough, and they didn''t trust their own people. Fang Lang doesn''t mind either, because what he needs is someone who can completely follow his command, not an uncle who comes to give ideas and show off. Fang Lang''s grandfather, Fang Jiayong, was also a little disappointed when he heard Fang Lang''s words. At first, he thought that he could get the whole village to participate, so that the old people like himself could still use their residual heat, but seeing that his grandson obviously had his own ideas And assertive, although a little disappointed, but at the same time feel relieved that my grandson has grown up and has his own ideas. He also quickly said: "Since Lang''er already has his own arrangements and ideas, everyone will go back and have a look, and talk to the young people at home, see how many people are willing to participate, and come over tomorrow night. Sit back, we old guys are getting older, so we won''t participate, but we will definitely pay attention to the whole process, okay, okay, let''s leave!" As the few remaining old people in the village, their prestige in the village is relatively high. Because Brazil does not have so-called grassroots election officials such as village chiefs. Many things are decided after discussion by a few old people, which is equivalent to a village council. He has made some contributions and is very prestigious among the elders in the village, equivalent to half the village chairman. Everyone saw that the old man had spoken, so they stopped talking. They all expressed that they would go home and discuss it with their family members. The juniors come over. Some smart people in the village have already seen Fang Lang''s intentions, and they want to establish a group with Fang Lang as the core to implement his ideas, but they don''t have any good ideas themselves, and they want to participate in and get a share I can''t do it, so I can only return in resentment. After everyone in the village had left, Fang Xinshui pulled Fang Lang and said, "My boy, I haven''t seen you in two years, and now I''m really promising, I don''t care! You have to count me in this kind of thing, because of my age Yes, now I''m not as transparent as you kid." The father, who had been hiding behind without making a sound, also said at this time: "Langer''s idea is reasonable. Once there are more people, many things will be spread everywhere. If the government knows that we want to help immigrants You wont have any opinions when you come here, but those Japanese will not be willing, and there will definitely be a lot of obstacles at that time, so its better for fewer people to know about it. Fang Lang saw that the rest of the family were his own family members, so he stopped hiding and said, "Actually, what I just said is on the bright side. What I really want to do is to establish A secret Chinese organization is different from the gang established by my uncle, but a secret organization that can penetrate into various fields in Brazil in the future, control some national policy trends, and even the presidential election. Because as far as I know, there is such an organization in the United States , Their influence is very large, almost every American president is theirs, they control the politics, economy, military, culture, and the way of life of ordinary people in the United States. It can be said that they are the shadow government of the United States, but But they rarely step up to the front stage. I hope that we will not say that we will do what they do, but at least we must be able to ensure that we have a pivotal position in Brazil, that we can protect the interests of our Chinese in Brazil, and that we have the opportunity to serve the motherland. provide the necessary assistance." Several people were dumbfounded when they heard Fang Lang''s words. They didn''t expect him to have such a lofty goal. Fang Xinshui said emotionally: "Langer, my gang is a joke compared to yours. Just wait, I will go back today to disband my gang and come back directly to join your organization. In the future, if we have Opportunity to control a presidential election would be pretty awesome." "Uncle, don''t worry. In fact, gangsters have the benefits of gangsters. Although Brazil will develop rapidly in the next few years, the political situation will be very chaotic. At that time, we have many things that are inconvenient to come forward. We can come forward through gangsters. An organization Where there is light, there must be darkness, so not only can we not disband your gang, but we must also expand the size of your gang as the number of Chinese people increases." (end of this chapter) Chapter 28: Uncles Cigarette Factory Chapter 28 Uncle''s Cigarette Factory "Okay, since Lang''er thinks our gang is very useful, then I won''t disband for now." As he spoke, he still picked his eyes at his old man, meaning to say, see if you still say I''m a fool , all right now! Your grandkids say my gang is very important. "Uncle, I don''t know, what is the name of your gang, and are there any gang rules?" Fang Lang was also a little curious about his uncle''s gang. "Our gang is called the Xinshui Gang! There are more than 20 people, and I have the final say on what gang rules and matters you want." Fang Xinshui''s answer left Fang Lang speechless. "Since uncle is a gangster, I don''t know if he has heard of Hongmen." "I haven''t heard of it! What is Hongmen?" "The origin of the Hongmen was the Anti-Qing and Fuming organization in the late Ming and early Qing. After so many years of development, it is now a huge organization with tens of thousands of members around the world, and played an important role in the establishment of the Republic of China in the late Qing and early Ming. effect." "so smart." "Of course, Hongmen''s gang rules are strict and there are many gang members. The gang organization I want is similar to Hongmen''s gang organization. There must be rules and goals. Once you join the gang, you can''t leave it. If you make a mistake, you will be punished." Only by being punished will such a gang have combat effectiveness. And our organization can also hide behind the gang and become a real secret organization." "I understand what you mean, then you can tell me exactly what to do, and I will make it clear to my brothers when I go back. If you continue to work with us, we will stay. If you don''t want to, let He left." Fang Xinshui was very straightforward. In this way, Fang Lang introduced the history of Hongmen and the initiation ceremony of Hongmen to Fang Xinshui, and told him the ten prohibitions of Hongmen, the punishment methods of Hongmen, etc., as long as Fang Lang had heard of it, he would agree with it one by one. Fang Xinshui made it clear, and told him many traitors and influential events in the history of Hongmen, hoping that he can learn from them. After all, gangsters are a very important part of Fang Lang''s plan. Even after Fang Lang finished talking about Hongmen, he introduced some situations and rules of the Italian Mafia to him. Fang Xinshui was fascinated by hearing it, benefited a lot, and was full of energy in his heart. The old man, his father, and his younger brother were stunned. They never expected that a gangster would have so many ways and opinions, especially when they heard that the Italian mafia had its own specially trained lawyers. In this way, the conversation did not end until the mother informed everyone to have dinner. Originally, Mr. Fang was going to call a few old people over to chat while eating, but there were too many people who came, and Fang Lang''s mother alone couldn''t take care of the food for so many people, so Fang Lang asked everyone They were all gone, so he didn''t let everyone stay for dinner. But another guest came to the house during the meal, and it was Fang Lang''s uncle Yang Zong. Because Yang Zong lived in downtown Sao Paulo, he didn''t come here in a hurry. Seeing Yang Zong coming, Fang Lang was also very happy, because Yang Zong was an important part of his plan to come back this time. Several people chatted about homework while eating. After the meal, when everyone was sitting in the living room chatting, Fang Lang said directly: "Uncle, I don''t know how the family''s cigarette factory is doing now!" "Oh! Everyone in this cigarette factory knows that the business has always been doomed, and the sales volume is not high, and it can''t be sold. It''s a headache!" As soon as the cigarette factory was mentioned, the uncle began to sigh. "Uncle, what is the daily output of your current cigarette factory! Is there a lot of inventory?" "Where do you dare to let go of production! The inventory can''t be digested and you don''t dare to produce too much! The more you produce, the more serious the loss will be. There is still a warehouse full of inventory! The inventory alone will My liquidity is all locked up." "I don''t smoke, so I would like to ask, is there any difference in taste between our cigarettes and American cigarettes? Why are American cigarettes more expensive than our sales?" "There is still a little difference. Generally speaking, the taste is not as mellow as their cigarettes. But the difference is not particularly big." Hearing what his uncle said, Fang Lang knew it well. With the current cigarette making technology, many of the subsequent technologies should not be applied yet. "Uncle, will your tobacco be flavored and flavored during the manufacturing process?" "What do you mean by flavoring and flavoring! There is really no such thing!" Yang Zong was full of questions after hearing what his nephew said, what kind of flavoring and fragrance should be added to cigarettes! As soon as Fang Lang heard his uncle''s answer, he knew why Yankee''s cigarettes were more fragrant than those made by his uncle. Obviously, American cigarettes are now learning to add flavoring! And Fang Lang still remembers the manufacturing process of modern cigarettes he saw when he watched the video on the boat, and he couldn''t help but feel amused. It seems that there is a chance to make the cigarette factory bigger and stronger. "How about it! Uncle, I will visit your factory tomorrow morning to see your inventory and production process. Then I will invest in you to expand the cigarette factory and make our cigarette factory bigger and stronger." "I said prodigal son! Don''t act recklessly! The current cigarette factory is a tasteless one. I can''t harm you, so don''t act recklessly! When the time comes, the money you earn will be wasted, and your mother will not kill you." me." "Haha. Uncle, don''t worry, all your inventory is handed over to me. I will directly arrange a ship to transport it away for you. I have a way to sell it. I also have a way to make our cigarettes unique. When the time comes, our cigarettes will definitely It can be sold all over the world. At that time, uncle, don''t regret letting me invest and take the shares." Fang Lang laughed when he heard Yang Zong''s words. Yang Zong was overjoyed when he heard that Fang Lang could transport all his inventory away. He stood up excitedly and overturned the stool behind him to the ground. "Lang''er, are you serious? If you can take all my inventory away, I will give you the factory directly. What investment do you need?" The family members looked at Fang Lang in surprise. They never expected that Fang Lang would say that he would eat all of his uncle''s inventory and invest in expanding his cigarette factory. "Uncle, I can''t take advantage of you. When the time comes, ask your company''s accountant to calculate the assets of your company to see how much they are worth. I''ll see how much money I can invest." "What''s the point of this? I''ve been looking for a buyer. Some time ago, a buyer offered me 10,000 U.S. dollars and didn''t want my inventory. What I want is a package price of 50,000 U.S. dollars. If you can digest all my inventory, I will give you the factory, no kidding." Yang Zong looked serious. "Is there only 40,000 US dollars in stock in the factory? It may not be enough! I don''t know if there are other cigarette factories nearby. I now have four 5,000-ton freighters. Such a small amount of stock is not enough for me to transport. !" Fang Lang''s words shocked the whole family. Father Fang Xinshan was the first to speak: "Lang''er, do you mean that you have signed transportation contracts with four ships?" Fang Lang understood the meaning of his father''s words, and did not hide anything, and said directly: "I established a global trading company in the United States. The company purchased three ships in Italy, plus a transport ship under my own command. Now They are all in Rio, and I plan to wait two days before calling the companys transport ship to Saunders Port, loading them with cigarettes, and shipping them to Italy. At the current wholesale price of cigarettes in Brazil, if I buy such a large quantity, I should Its about ten cents a pack, so my profit will reach 50 times, this time Im going to purchase goods worth 400,000 U.S. dollars, and the funds are already prepared, so its okay to run out of goods. "Son, where did you get so much money!" Fang Lang''s mother said anxiously from the side. "Of course your son earned it! If we don''t have so much money, I''m ready for how to start our plan. At the end of the war! At least let the company''s fleet expand to more than fifty ships, each ship If the boat transports 500 people, my fleet can transport 25,000 people at a time. At the current speed of the fleet, it can only run back and forth every two months. We can achieve the number of Chinese in Brazil in one year. More than the Japanese, in three or four years we can allow our Chinese population to occupy a place in a continent. Then we use this continent as a base and start to radiate to the whole of Brazil, and then we Chinese will gradually have enough influence. What Fang Lang said made the family members unbelievable. They didn''t expect Fang Lang to earn so much money so quickly. (end of this chapter) Chapter 29: Media layout Chapter 29 Media Layout What Fang Lang said made the family members both happy and shocked. The first person to react was Fang Lang''s uncle Yang Zong, who quickly said, "Lang''er, cigarettes worth 400,000 dollars, the stocks of several cigarette factories in St. Swept away by you! There are two small factories that are in the same situation as my uncles. Since you can digest so many cigarettes, I dont know if the sales will be stable in the future. If you can guarantee a stable sales channel, I suggest you Don''t clear their inventory directly, you can combine our three factories in the form of purchasing factories at a packaged price, wouldn''t the expansion you want be achieved in one step?" When Fang Lang heard it, he also found it very reasonable: "Then I don''t know if uncle can help to handle this matter, because I have some other things to be busy these days, and I will definitely entrust you to the factory when the time comes To manage, you must know the specific price better than me, and it must be better for you to negotiate than me." "That''s no good. I can''t go alone. I''m your uncle, but one of the factories is my own. How can I do it all! If you don''t have time, you can call Isn''t it all right if your father comes forward and I''ll help him as an adviser?" Yang Zong still thought in his heart that although he is an uncle, it''s fine to help his nephew, but it''s all done by himself, and it''s okay to be gossiped by others Oh no. Fang Lang glanced at his uncle, then at his father beside him, and said, "Since uncle said so, do you have time to deal with it, father?" In fact, Fang Lang can already see his intentions from his father''s eager expression, but after all, he is his father, so he must pass a ladder for his father to pick up! Could it be that my father should take the initiative to speak up? At that time, others thought it was the father who wanted to seize his power! "Since you have other things to do, go ahead and do it! I can help you with this little matter! I will go to this cigarette factory with your uncle in the next two days." Father Said with a casual expression. But Fang Lang believes that his father should still be a little happy and excited at the moment. After all, he has 400,000 dollars in his hand to spend, and he has never experienced the opportunity to buy a factory in his life! However, my father still takes a long-term view of the problem and has his own ideas. I saw him opening his mouth and saying: "After the factory is acquired, what are you going to do with it! I heard you just said that you have some ideas about the manufacturing process of cigarettes. Is it the latest American technology?" It turned out that Fang Lang always thought that his father was an old-fashioned old man who didn''t know how to adapt, but after returning today, through today''s communication, Fang Lang found out whether the original body had any misunderstandings and prejudices about his father. Fang Lang didn''t see where his father was conservative at all. It''s feudal! So many good qualities were found in him. "Dad, you''re right. Americans now manufacture cigarettes. In addition to smoking the tobacco leaves in the early stage and fermenting them in a constant temperature and humidity environment for three years, they will also add flavoring and flavoring before shredding. It is mainly dried by adding sugar, white vinegar, and white wine. After drying, it will add flavor again. As for what spices are added, we need to experiment by ourselves. After the aroma is completed, it will be added again, generally Add wine, honey, sugar, etc. for rehydration treatment. After rehydration, the shredded tobacco is quickly re-roasted in the high-temperature and high-pressure heat of about 200 degrees, and then the rolling begins. The cigarettes that come out in this way will have a sweet taste. , and will have its own unique fragrance. When we develop filter tips in the future, we dont have to worry about our cigarettes not being able to open the market. Hearing Fang Lang''s introduction, the family members thought that Fang Lang had obtained the latest cigarette manufacturing technology from the United States, but they didn''t know that these were obtained by Fang Lang in the videos of later generations. To be confirmed. But if the experiment is successful, Fang Lang is confident that his cigarettes will open up the market all over the world, especially the emergence of filters is worthy of special mention. Everyone''s confidence has also increased greatly, and they no longer worry that Fang Lang will do it willfully. Only uncle Fang Xinshui held back his mouth and said: "What''s so good about these cigarettes, we are selling hemp leaves now, which are much more enjoyable than your cigarettes." Fang Lang was shocked when he heard what his uncle said, and quickly said: "Uncle, don''t smoke yourself! This thing is a drug, and it is very addictive." "Haha, Lang''er, don''t worry, the uncles have been taught by your grandfather since they were young, and they know how powerful things like opium are. How could I touch these things myself! Isn''t this what other people like! We are too Be a middleman, otherwise the gang will have no source of income, and it will be over!" Fang Xinshui raised his hand and said with a look of disgust. "It''s fine if you don''t have one. In the future, your gang''s rules must be clear. If the gang members appear to be addicted to drugs, they will be forced to detoxify. You don''t need this person three times." Fang Lang uttered cruel words with a stern face, which made the family tremble, and they didn''t expect Fang Lang to be so stern. Uncle Fang Xinshui frowned slightly and said, "Lang''er, won''t this be too cruel! We are all brothers." Before his uncle finished speaking, Fang Lang interrupted: "Uncle, we are going to do big things, you have to understand that if you are not ruthless, you will not be able to stand firm. The so-called kindness does not control soldiers, and righteousness does not raise money. And we are also like this For the sake of the brothers! Once this kind of thing is touched, there will be no bottom line, and wives and children will be separated, and families will be destroyed. Do you have the heart to let your brothers have such an end? Dont talk about family, just say Once our opponents know that there are such addicts among our people, then we only need a little trick, and we will have no secrets from the enemy. When the time comes to implicate other brothers, you are willing to take this responsibility ?" Fang Xinshui didn''t make a sound for a long time after listening to Fang Lang''s words. Seeing everyone looking at him, he sighed and said: "Our original brothers all walked together by loyalty. No wonder we have always been just a small gang. I have always I think it is the reason why our Chinese population is not enough, but what Langer told me today made me have to re-examine myself. Langer, dont worry, uncle will not hold you back, I will go back and get all the brothers Lets get together and set our rules. In the future, we will also learn from Hongmen. If anyone is unwilling to participate, let him leave early! Dont make the brothers turn against each other. Ill leave first, and Ill come back tomorrow night . After speaking, he got up and left without looking back. Uncle Yang Zong also stood up and said: "I''ll go back first, brother-in-law remember to come and find me tomorrow morning, let''s go and visit all the cigarette factories together." After finishing speaking, he waved his hand and left. After all the relatives in the family left, his younger brother Fang Tao sneaked up to Fang Lang and said, "Brother, is it true that you said you want to buy a newspaper?" Fang Lang looked at his younger brother''s expectant and apprehensive eyes and couldn''t help laughing: "What a brat, I want to be the boss of a newspaper at such a young age!" "Hey. Didn''t you tell me that you want to buy a newspaper?" Fang Tao was a little embarrassed by his brother. After all, he was just a college student who hadn''t graduated yet, so he definitely didn''t have the ability to manage a newspaper. Yes, but since my brother really wants to set up a newspaper, I don''t have to go out to find a job in the future, and what my brother said today really made him very excited. He was a little passionate and wanted to help his brother. "If you really want to be this boss, it''s not impossible, but first of all, you must learn to think independently and have your own judgment. If you always follow others'' advice, I will report to you on social media, and you will soon lose. In addition, if I run a newspaper, it must be our mouthpiece. If it involves us Chinese affairs, I must choose to stand by our side! If you only want to keep the authenticity of the news , you dont have to think about continuing to do this business, you wont be able to do it for long. Except for matters involving ourselves, my request is to be unbiased, and I only announce the facts, but I cant stand in a clear line, especially when it involves some More sensitive political topics must not have leading reports. Be fair, just, and open to a limited extent." Fang Lang educated his younger brother with a serious face, and stated his requirements for the newspaper. (end of this chapter) Chapter 30: chief Police officer Chapter 30 Chief of Police Listening to his brother Fang Lang''s request to the newspaper office, Fang Tao said in astonishment: "Brother, is it too early for you to tell me these things now. We don''t even have a newspaper office now!" "This is your first task. In the next few days, you should hurry up and find out if there is any newspaper in Sao Paulo that intends to sell it. If not, we will consider building a new newspaper by ourselves. Then you have to think about how the employees of the newspaper will be. Recruit." Fang Lang arranged the task casually, after all, this task is not imminent, and it doesn''t matter if you can wait. "Okay, okay, don''t pester brother Ni anymore. I''ve been on a boat and a plane again. I haven''t rested. It''s getting dark. Let your brother go to rest quickly. I have something to talk about tomorrow." In the end, my mother loves her son the most, and nothing is as important as his son''s health. Everyone heard what their mother Yang Xiuer said, and they also spoke one after another, asking Fang Lang to rest earlier, and we can wait until tomorrow to talk about anything. Fang Lang slept very soundly that night, and he didn''t know if it was because he had returned to his real home, or because he was exhausted from the journey. Fang Lang slept soundly, but other people did not sleep so soundly. Almost all the people who participated in today''s rally couldn''t fall asleep after returning home, and even Fang Lang''s father couldn''t sleep for a long time. The change in his son now makes him dare not admit it. The son who used to be impulsive and reckless, who liked to use his hands more than his brain, has become a son who is well aware of the international trend and has goals, methods, and methods in doing things. A well-organized mature man, this makes Fang Xinshan, as a father, both happy and distressed. I don''t know how much my son has suffered outside in the past two years to have such a life experience and such a big change. What Fang Lang didn''t know was that Captain Blackwell, who sent him home, did not return to the barracks after leaving his home, but drove directly to the St. Paul City Police Station and found the police chief. "Haha. Captain Blackwell, come in quickly, why do you have so much time to come and sit with me today!" Director Sebastio Hodges stood up with a smile on his face and greeted him. Sebastio Hodges is the chief of the Sao Paulo Police Department. He is a white Portuguese man. He is very short among whites. He is less than 1.7 meters tall. With a slightly protruding belly, he looks very uncoordinated . "Good afternoon, Director Hodges, I am indeed here today for some business, and I need to communicate with you." Captain Blackwell also smiled, and it was obvious that the two were very familiar with each other. After all, it was the Garrison Chief and the Police Chief, both of whom were in charge of the S?o Paulo Armed Forces. "Oh! If you need something, brother, you can go there yourself, and you can get it done with just one phone call. Come, come, come. Sit here. Come, come and pour me two cups of coffee!" Chief Hodges invited Black very politely Captain Will sat down in the reception area, and turned to tell the secretary outside the door. "This time I received an order from my superiors to go to the airport to pick up a combat hero of the expeditionary force home, and I received clear instructions from my superiors to ensure the safety of this lieutenant during his stay in Sao Paulo. Comrades, if there is any unfriendly behavior, our garrison will be authorized to take all necessary measures to eliminate potential safety hazards." Captain Blackwell said with a serious face, staring at Director Hodges with scorching eyes. When Director Hodges heard Captain Blackwell''s words and saw him staring at him, he felt a little nervous, and quickly said: "Brother, is there some misunderstanding! The lieutenant you mentioned, There should be no conflict with me! Why are you staring at me like this?" "Although this Mr. Lieutenant has no direct conflict with you, as far as I know, his compatriots have been targeted and bullied by another group of people some time ago, and your police station has not taken any measures to protect Its their interests! I came here today to remind you that I dont care what kind of benefits your police station receives. If this happens again, you may have to face investigations by our army and navy military police. Believe me This is something you can''t afford." Captain Blackwell still said the words that made Director Hodges feel as if he had fallen into an ice cave. "Brother, we are good brothers! Brother, please tell me clearly, who is the name of this lieutenant, if there is such a situation as you said, I will definitely come to the door tomorrow morning to make amends. No matter who you said against them, Even if it is Satan, I will definitely make him pay a heavy price." Chief Hodges gritted his teeth. "This lieutenant is now the popular man in front of Colonel Artilio Parisi of the Expeditionary Army Navy. He also has a close relationship with Colonel Tichi at the Rio Naval Base. I even heard that he has a relationship with the American general The relationship is also very good. This is why my superior is so tough, I believe you can understand what I mean, right?" Captain Blackwell continued a little bit, telling the information about Fang Lang that he knew. Director Hodges heard that a small lieutenant has close relationships with so many military leaders, and even has relationships with American generals. Doesn''t this mean that as long as Mr. Lieutenant is willing, he can even send his own Dissatisfaction was reflected directly to President Vargas. If Mr. President knows that there are Brazilian combat heroes who have been wronged under his rule, then he will not have to consider whether the seat under his buttocks can be secured, but whether he can keep his head Living. "Brother, please be sure to tell me the name of this lieutenant. I want to visit him early tomorrow. I don''t know if it is convenient. As for what you said about someone targeting and bullying his compatriots, please tell me now. I will send someone to arrest these damned **** immediately, and hang them in front of Mr. Lieutenant to atone for what they have done." Director Hodges said loudly in a stern voice, don''t think that as a police chief, you will always It is very unreasonable to hang criminal suspects who have not been tried. In this era, Brazil is in a slightly dictatorial society, and the power of the police chief is beyond your imagination. "Director Hodges, the two of us are old friends. That''s why I came here to talk to you today. In fact, the order I received was to directly kill these people. But, this is yours after all. Site, I don''t want to make it difficult for you. If you can do it cleanly, then tomorrow morning, I will come and take you to visit this Mr. Lieutenant. If you are messy, then I will clean up the **** first After that, I will report your performance to my superior. Do you understand what I mean?" Captain Blackwell said with a slightly better tone. "Captain Blackwell, please rest assured. At six o''clock tomorrow morning at the latest, I will definitely show you my attitude. Please tell me who these **** are!" Director Hodges had already stood up, his eyes full of Yes, as the top three major cities in Brazil, the police chief of Sao Paulo must be capable no matter how corrupt he is. If this kind of person is ruthless, someone must pay the price with his life. "Then Mr. Director, I will wait for your good news. Our lieutenant''s full name is Fang Lang, and he is a Brazilian Chinese. Do you need me to explain who is targeting and bullying his compatriots!" Captain Blackwell finally said Fang Lang''s name. He believed that as the police chief, if he still didn''t know who the bad guy he was talking about, then he would not have to be the police chief. Finally, Captain Blackwell got the name of the lieutenant. Director Hodges naturally knew immediately who the captain said was targeting and bullying the Chinese. Although because of the small proportion of the Chinese population, they have been bullied by many races and nationalities in Sao Paulo, but the most serious group of people targeting the Chinese recently is definitely the Japanese who come from Asia like the Chinese. Maybe this group of people I feel that my motherland has become a powerful empire that can occupy the entire Asia and challenge the United States. And the population in Sao Paulo has an absolute advantage compared to the Chinese, so some time ago, before Brazil joined the Allies, I was dancing very happily. And as far as Director Hodges knows, the current Japanese have established a gang organization in Brazil that belongs to the Japanese branch - the Black Dragon Club. Although this organization has regularly confessed to itself, but now they need to make sacrifices to reverse the military''s dissatisfaction with him. He doesn''t have to worry about any hands to kill these little Japanese. Even if there are protests from the public, he can directly wipe out this so-called gangster organization in the name of espionage. Mr. Lieutenant is simply giving himself credit! Be sure to thank him tomorrow. (end of this chapter) Chapter 31: espionage organization Chapter 31 Spy Organization While the soldiers on the European battlefield were fighting in the ice and snow, Brazil in the southern hemisphere ushered in a light rain at night after a sultry day. Several police cars stopped, and a group of heavily armed policemen filed out and surrounded the street. "I want to emphasize again that this time we are facing Japanese spies who have stolen our important information. There are a large number of them, so I ask you to catch them all, and no one can slip through the net. If any spies escape from your defense zone , then I will arrest you and send you to a court-martial for espionage. Do you understand?" Director Hodges'' voice came out under the dim streetlights. "Understood, sir!" Everyone took orders in unison. "Well, the commando will give you another five minutes to prepare. Five minutes later, the attack will officially start. The others will guard their defenses to prevent spies from escaping." Director Hodges waved everyone to disperse, according to The respective mission objectives start to execute. After everyone dispersed, Director Hodges'' secretary quietly stood behind the director and said, "Mr. Director, are we really going to eliminate these Japanese directly? They have a lot of confessions every month! " "Is the money more important than the head? If the Japanese are dead, we can change to another faction to support us, and our benefits will not be cut off. However, if the Japanese don''t die this time, we have to die, do you understand?" Huo Director Keith squinted at his secretary, and then reprimanded in a low voice. I couldn''t help but think, it seems that my secretary is very close to the Japanese! It seems that there should be no less benefits from the Japanese at ordinary times. "Understood, sir, then I''ll go down and prepare." The secretary whispered. "Well, go down!" I couldn''t help but feel funny in my heart, you are a little secretary, and you won''t rush to the front line, so you have nothing to prepare for. Time is passing by, and the police commando is checking his equipment one last time. However, the Japanese community surrounded by the police was quiet, and everyone had already fallen asleep peacefully. Suddenly, a very abrupt phone ringing rang in the room of the director of the Black Dragon Association Brazil Club, waking up Takaichi Kato, who was sleeping soundly, from his sweet dreams, moved away the two tender arms that were pressing on him, grabbed the phone and was about to After cursing, I heard a hurried Portuguese voice coming from the phone: "The incident happened, the police have surrounded you, and the attack will start within five minutes." Without waiting for Taka Kato to speak, the phone was hung up directly. Kato Takaichi''s swear words were swallowed alive, and cold sweat covered his whole body. No longer caring about the two women holding him, he jumped up from the bed, grabbed the pistol on the table, ran out the door, and shouted to the outside: "Everyone get up, get your weapons, enemy attack! Enemy attack!" Raid!" After calling, they went to slap on the door next to them one by one. Some disheveled men with weapons in their hands rushed out of the adjacent room one after another. He looked at his curator blankly. "Ono, go and destroy our materials. Yoshikawa, go and organize everyone to get their guns. Miyamoto, go and hide our radio station. Everyone get their weapons and prepare to fight." Kato Takaichi gave orders methodically, very quickly Soon the lights in the guild hall began to come on, and the voices of the people became louder. As for Chief Hodges, who was next to the police car at the intersection, his heart skipped a beat the moment the lights came on and he yelled that it was not good. Quickly shouted to the commando captain who was looking at him: "Action! Action! Quick! Quick!" Unexpectedly, the Japanese received the news at this time. It seems that someone in the police station tipped off the news. I couldn''t help but start scolding my mother in my heart, but now scolding my mother is useless, the most important thing is to seize the time to break through the Japanese stronghold. Soon there was the sound of gunshots like popping beans, and the whole street became lively instantly, and the lights of the residents'' rooms next to them were constantly lit. If there is a veteran here, he will definitely feel emotional, it is better to have a peaceful environment! There were still so many people who dared to turn on the lights when the gunshots rang out. Aren''t you afraid of becoming a target? The sneak attack has turned into an assault, and the difficulty of the battle must have increased exponentially. Therefore, the police commando has been in a hard fight from the very beginning. After all, Brazil and the United States are not forbidden to shoot, so the weapons of the Black Dragon Club are no better than those of the police. few. The two sides fought inextricably, and soon both sides began to suffer casualties. Director Hodges was furious, and in the afternoon he vowed to Captain Blackwell that he would let him see his attitude, but the current situation directly slapped Director Hodges in the face, which made Mr. How embarrassing is it, don''t you want to lose face? "Everyone go up to reinforce me, I must eradicate this Black Dragon Society today." Mr. Director also launched a ruthless attack, mobilized all the surrounding policemen and began to besiege the hall of the Black Dragon Society. Soon the superiority in numbers began to manifest, and the casualties of the Black Dragon Society began to increase, with people constantly falling down. The police began to gain the upper hand, but at the same time the police casualties were not small, and some police officers even wanted to retreat at one point. The supervisory team arranged by Director Hodges shot back with a gun. But the time of this battle obviously exceeded Director Hodges'' expectations, and the operation was originally planned to end within two hours. It was only after dawn that it gradually calmed down. When Director Hodges walked into this Japanese-style building, there were corpses lying all over the place, including Japanese and police. The corners of Director Hodges'' eyes twitched as he watched. It seems that he will be punished now. It is best that he can really find evidence that these Japanese are spies, otherwise it will be difficult to explain the past. "Report, Mr. Director, two backbones of the Black Dragon Society are missing! No one is alive, no dead body is seen, and they may have run out." A policeman came to the director and reported. "What, so many people rounded up, and some people escaped. Waste! Give me the whole city to arrest them immediately. Everyone, give me a careful search, and don''t let go of every corner. I need to find the information stolen by these Japanese spies." Director Hodges trembled with anger and kicked a low table in front of him. I couldn''t help thinking that it seemed that I had to hurry up and concoct a piece of information as the evidence of the search. All the policemen were also simmering with anger in their hearts. They didn''t expect that these little Japanese were so ruthless and dared to start such a fierce battle with the heavily armed policemen. They recognized from the bottom of their hearts that these Japanese were really engaged in espionage. You are not a spy, how could you have such a fierce fight with the police directly! Everyone responded in unison: "Yes!" Im afraid of being serious when I do things. Once you get serious, sometimes people who are okay can find out the problem for you, not to mention that these Japanese people are really serious. Sure enough, the police soon discovered that in the documents that had not been completely burned, there was information about the transfer of the Brazilian army. There was even the case of four transport ships that just recently arrived in the port of Rio from Italy. Someone discovered a hidden military high-power telegraph, and even found a naval defense map along the coast of Brazil in the chairman''s office. This shocked Director Hodges, who was planning to concoct a piece of false information, so much that his jaw almost fell to the ground. It seems that it is time to go back and clean up the mess between the Japanese and himself. Otherwise, if it is found that he has the advantage of accepting Japanese, then he will fall into the crotch of yellow mud, which is either **** or shit. Since he can find so much real information directly in the Japanese guild hall, his actions this time will become reasonable and legal. A large number of casualties, but this can not blame him! This must be the insider of the spy organization who passed on the information that he was about to attack. He must hurry up and find out the spies in the police station. As for the escaped leaders of the two espionage organizations, they had to carry out a large-scale raid throughout the city. These two **** can''t be allowed to run away. If they are allowed to run away, this operation can basically be regarded as an unsuccessful operation. How can this be credited. And for the current Japanese community, the police must be sent to monitor and monitor everyone. He doesn''t know how many people there are still working for spy organizations. (end of this chapter) Chapter 32: Raw Rice Chapter 32 Raw Rice The gunshots rang out in the middle of the night and did not stop until dawn. At this time, the Japanese community was already surrounded by reporters and spectators, but they were all stopped outside the cordon by the police maintaining order. The mayor of Sao Paulo and some government personnel also rushed to the incident area in the early morning. The mayor, Mr. Mokti Scalia, ordered the staff around him to appease the emotions of the citizens and reporters while rushing to the scene of the incident . Mayor Scalia was very angry. The police did not communicate with the city government at all before taking action. He was also woken up from the bed by his secretary in the morning. Only then did he know that the Japanese community was surrounded by the police and launched an operation. The gunshots rang out. midnight. And he didn''t know what happened, which made him very angry, so he didn''t go back to the city government to work, but came to the scene angrily at the first time, wanting to question the chief of police what was going on. When I came to the scene and saw the corpses all over the ground, I was even more shocked, especially when I saw that many police officers were killed and injured. Seeing Police Chief Hodges and a group of police officers gathered around a living room, he broke in and said, "Hodges, what are you going to do? Why did you suddenly attack the Japanese community? It is difficult for your police to carry out such a large operation now." Dont you need to report to the city government? Dont forget, I appointed you as the director. Director Hodges, who was checking the information stolen by the Japanese with the police, was startled when he heard the scolding behind him. Turning around, it turned out to be the mayor of Scalia, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute. After all, this is his immediate boss, and he is also the chief of police appointed by him. This time, he really acted in a hurry and did not do well communicate. Hastily said: "Mr. Mayor, this matter is really urgent. I was going to explain the situation to you early this morning after finishing it last night. However, something went wrong and all the original plans were disrupted. Come this way, please, and I will explain to you." He said, leading the mayor to a pile of evidence. Mayor Scalia, hearing the words of Director Hodges, could only temporarily suppress the anger in his heart, followed him to the table, and saw that there were many things on the table, including radio stations, documents, some of which had been burned part. "Last night, Captain Blackwell of the garrison came over and told me that a combat hero from the expeditionary force returned to our St. Espionage, their garrison originally wanted to take action. However, considering that Sao Paulo belongs to my jurisdiction, they cant do it directly without passing through me, so they came to ventilate with me. But it was already very late at that time, and Mr. Captain and I wanted to avoid long nights and dreams. I don''t have time to inform you, so I can only directly arrange manpower and start to attack these little Japans. It turns out that these **** from the Axis countries also have spies in our police station, so they discovered our actions in advance, and the surprise attack that was originally planned turned into a surprise. It became a strong attack, so it caused a lot of casualties among our personnel. It also allowed the two bosses to escape. I am really sorry, please punish me!" Director Hodges made a detailed report of the incident to Mayor Scalia. It''s just that the matter of seeking justice for the fighting heroes has become that the fighting heroes suspect that the Japanese are engaged in espionage. Mayor Scalia was shocked when he heard this: "These Japanese are engaged in espionage activities in Brazil. Do you have any evidence? The population of Japanese descent in our Sao Paulo is not small. You did it directly without actual evidence. At that time, it will cause strong dissatisfaction among the people, do you understand? Now the outside is already surrounded by citizens and reporters who want to know the truth, how do you ask me to explain the actions of your police. "Mr. Mayor, please see that the desktop is full of evidence we found from the Japanese Black Dragon Club Hall, as well as their high-power radio stations. These Japanese spies have stolen a lot of information, and many of them have been in the They were destroyed while resisting. From the materials we salvaged, we found the deployment map of our Brazilian navy and the timetable of the transport ships between us and the Americans. Obviously these people were active in Brazil for a very long time. Its been a long time, and the penetration into us is so deep that even our police station already has their spies. Therefore, I want to use the escape of the two Japanese spies as an excuse to conduct surveillance on all Japanese descendants. Because The Black Dragon Society alone will definitely not be able to collect so much information, and I seriously suspect that there are a large number of Japanese in the entire Japanese community, providing information and cover for these spies." "These damned Japanese really dare to engage in espionage activities in our Brazil, and even infiltrated the spies into the police station. How did you become the police chief? Someone has already entered your house, and you need someone to remind you Yes. I need you to give me a written report and have to get me the spies in your police station within two days. Now take all the evidence and come outside with me for a live press conference, we need Give the citizens an explanation." After understanding what happened, Mr. Mayor Scalia could only appease the citizens before finding trouble with Director Hodges. And when our Chief Hodges heard that he was required to find the spies in the police station within two days, he was a little numb! After all, solving crimes is not his job! There is no problem with flattery and corruption, but asking him to investigate the case is better than asking him to find a dead ghost. But the mayor gave the order, so he could only bite the bullet and go up. Soon the police led the reporters outside the Black Dragon Club Hall, and the mayor began to explain the espionage case in detail. From how long ago the police discovered the clues, how thorough investigations were conducted, and enough evidence was obtained, A surprise attack was launched on the spy dens, but because the spies had received strict training, the police paid a heavy loss. Affirmed the excellent performance of the police in cracking this major espionage case, and expressed their determination and confidence in maintaining the safety and stability of Sao Paulo. In the end, he condemned the espionage of the Japanese endlessly, expressed his indignation at all Japanese nationals providing convenience and intelligence to the Japanese intelligence agencies, and said that he would report to Mr. President and include the Japanese in Sao Paulo. Crowds are welcome. If it weren''t for the fact that Brazil belongs to the Allies and Japan belongs to the Axis countries, the two countries are now in a state of war, and there is no embassy for each other, and they might have to go to the embassy to protest twice. Finally, he appealed to all the citizens of Sao Paulo to arrest the escaped spies, and promised that the city government would offer a reward of five thousand dollars to the two spies. Then, Director Hodges delivered a speech again. After almost repeating the words of the mayor, the director directly said, please pay attention to the Japanese around you, they may all be spies of Japanese spies. At the same time, it directly ordered the police station to implement a residential surveillance policy for all Japanese descendants until the end of the war. The reporters below looked at the evidence in front of them and the number of Japanese who exchanged fire with the police, and they were all indignant. In just one night, the Japanese in Sao Paulo would become unable to move an inch in Sao Paulo. I believe that after the fermentation of time, continuous newspaper reports, and high rewards offered by the city government, the Japanese will become street rats in Sao Paulo for a long time to come. And what happened here was completely unexpected to Fang Lang. He never thought that because of Colonel Teach''s words, after Captain Blackwell who sent him home found the chief of police, things would develop into such a situation. However, Fang Lang is definitely happy to see such a situation. After dealing with the situation at the scene, Director Hodges met Captain Blackwell who came to look for him as soon as he returned to the police station. The captain had a general understanding of what happened last night. He regretted endlessly in his heart. If he had known that this organization was a spy organization, he would not have been so idle and let the credit for this achievement be given to Director Hodges! No matter what, we have to participate in it, but now that it''s done, Captain Blackwell will see if Director Hodges will be a man. Even if he doesn''t get credit, he still needs to get some practical benefits! "Director Hodges, I gave you such a big gift, I don''t know how you are going to thank me!" "Brother, I will never forget you about this kind of thing! Don''t worry, I have reported this incident to Mr. Mayor. It is the anomaly you discovered. We started the operation together, because your people are soldiers, it''s not good Those who come forward directly are all wearing our police uniforms, so don''t worry, you must have a share of the credit." Hodges is suffering too! If it wasn''t for the spies of the police station that let the Japanese get the wind in advance, if he had caught all these spies in one go, he wouldn''t have shared his credit! However, because the spies escaped the two leaders and the operation leaked secrets, he was also worried that the credit would not be obtained by then, and the penalty would not be worth the loss. He had to drag Captain Blackwell and drag Mr. Captain on when he was writing the report. It is also a good choice to share the risk together. Although part of the credit may be shared, it is also very good to be able to share the risk, not to mention that this case was originally discovered by the captain who suggested that he teach the Japanese a lesson. (end of this chapter) Chapter 33: find mole Chapter 33 Finding the traitor After all, it was still his own bed, and he slept comfortably. Fang Lang didn''t get up from the bed until it was high in the sun. This may also be caused by his restless sleep on the boat. After Fang Lang finished washing up, when he went downstairs to eat breakfast, he found that his mother Yang Xiuer was the only one left at home, and everyone else was no longer at home, not even his grandfather was at home, so he didn''t know what to do, Fang Lang didn''t care, After preparing to have a leisurely breakfast, go to the telegraph office to send a telegram to the United States and Italy to inquire about the company''s current situation. According to Fang Lang''s estimate, Italy should have received the second or even third batch of cigarettes from the United States. I don''t know what my income is now. While Fang Lang was still enjoying the business situation on the other side of the ocean, Captain Blackwell brought Chief Hodges to visit. This was agreed yesterday, so Fang Lang stood up to greet him without any surprise. Introduced by Captain Blackwell, Fang Lang and Director Hodges had a warm hug and invited each other to sit down at home. "Fang, there is one thing I have to tell you. Last night we took action against the Black Dragon Association in the Japanese community!" Captain Blackwell said solemnly. Fang Lang was startled, what''s the situation, the Black Dragon Society, is it the Black Dragon Society I know? He said calmly: "Oh! Thank you! Dude, you are so kind, I don''t even know how to thank you." "It''s nothing, I followed Colonel Teach''s order, but we found something else!" Captain Blackwell''s eyes shone with excitement. "Other circumstances?" Fang Lang''s heart moved, it couldn''t really be such a coincidence! It would be interesting if the Black Dragon Society in Brazil is also engaged in espionage in the same way as in the motherland. But even if Fang Lang had an idea in his heart, he couldn''t say it, if it wasn''t for this aspect! Isn''t it embarrassing to say it? "Yes, Mr. Director Hodges will explain this to you! He is the person involved." Captain Blackwell said, pointing to Director Hodges. "Lieutenant Fang, although this is the first time we met, you gave me a big gift this time, and I must thank you very much!" Chief Hodges laughed. "Oh! Director Hodges, I haven''t given you any gifts! Even if you received something, it must be a treasure you discovered yourself!" It is obvious from the tone of the two that it must be It''s a good thing, but Fang Lang doesn''t want to get any credit from the two of them, so it''s better to keep a low profile now. Hodges and Blackwell looked at each other and smiled, Director Hodges laughed loudly and said: "Okay! Even if I found it myself, I will definitely have a gift at that time. Haha." Captain Blackwell also said on the sidelines: "Fang may not care too much about such a small matter, so Mr. Director should stop keeping it secret, let''s talk about it quickly to make Fang happy." "Haha. Last night when we raided the Black Dragon Club hall, we accidentally discovered that the Black Dragon Club turned out to be a spy organization. It''s a pity that they bought people from our police station, so we couldn''t catch them all and ran away with two leaders." Fang Lang heard it, and sure enough, it seems that wherever the Black Dragon Society is, it is a gangster on the surface, and is secretly a spy for the Japanese government! Fang Lang is not surprised that the Japanese can buy people from the police station. This kind of penetration should not be seen too much in later TV movies. "Why are these Japanese spies? Damn it, have you found the two escaped Japanese!" Fang Lang said in feigned surprise. "Fang, don''t worry! These two Japanese can''t escape. Now the city government of Sao Paulo is offering a reward of 5,000 US dollars to these two Japanese spies. There are photos of the two of them everywhere on the street. Believe me, they can''t escape." Yes." Director Hodges seemed very confident, he believed in the charm of money, and when people all over St. Paul were looking for them, no one could escape. Fang Lang felt that Director Hodges obviously underestimated the difference between professional spies and ordinary citizens. Fang Lang was almost sure that the two Japanese spies, Director Hodges, were not so easy to catch. But I definitely cant say that. It seems that I have to remind my compatriots. There are only so many Asians in Sao Paulo. Now the Japanese must be the focus of attention. Maybe these two Japanese will disguise themselves as Chinese and hide in the Chinese. Come in the middle. "Then congratulate Director Hodges in advance, and catch these two fish that slipped through the net as soon as possible." He said and saluted. The two of them were taken aback looking at Fang Lang''s actions, not quite understanding what it meant, but Director Hodges still understood Fang Lang''s words. "Haha. These are trivial things. My headache now is that Mr. Mayor asked me to find the person who tipped the Japanese within two days. These damned spies are really hateful. We have no anti-spy experience at all, and we don''t know at all. Where to start looking." Director Hodges still looks confident at first, but when he talks about his internal spies, he has a headache expression. Apparently he has no clue about catching the spies hiding among his own people. Fang Lang thought to himself, doesn''t Brazil have its own intelligence bureau? Why does this kind of thing require your police station to conduct its own self-examination! However, when Fang Lang thought about the unknown Brazilian Intelligence Bureau in later generations, he had a bottom line in his heart. It is estimated that the current Brazilian Intelligence Bureau may not necessarily be established! Even if it is established, it is estimated that it will not be much different from the police. It''s just beyond words. Think about the spy war TV, movies, and novels I have watched, and see if I can help the Director Hodges in front of me. If I can, I might gain a close friend. "We Chinese have an old saying, called three cobblers, the best Zhuge Liang? Why don''t you tell the situation at that time and listen, and Captain Blackwell and I will help you figure out a solution!" "Stooge? Zhuge Liang? What is this?" Both of them had black question mark faces. "You don''t need to worry about this, it''s too troublesome to introduce, just talk about the situation at that time, and let''s help you think about it." Fang Lang also had a black line on his face. What Chinese proverbs did I say to two foreigners. Hodges did not hide anything, and explained the situation at the time in detail! Fang Lang and Captain Blackwell began to think after listening quietly. "You mean, when you arrived at the scene, the enemy didn''t notice it. It was within 5 minutes after the task was assigned that the lights in the enemy''s room turned on one by one, right?" Fang Lang spoke first. "That''s right!" Hodges remembered this very clearly. "Are you sure you didn''t inform others of the mission objective before arriving at the scene?" "Exactly!" "First of all, we can be sure that the spies are among the people at your scene, right?" "Why?" Hodges looked puzzled. Blackwell also looked at Fang Lang curiously. This made Fang Lang unable to complain. Do you have to explain such a simple reasoning by yourself? "Because the enemy only discovered it in the last five minutes before your action! Others don''t know the mission objective, so there is no way to warn!" "That''s right! Makes sense, I understand!" Director Hodges slapped his forehead and said. Seeing that Fang Lang didn''t continue, Director Hodges said again: "And then?" Fang Lang looked at Director Hodges with an anxious expression on his face, thinking he already knew who it was! As a result, one sentence and then what? "There are only so many of you at the scene. You can find out who has the opportunity to leave alone to report the message. Or check how the Japanese received the message, can''t you find out who notified it?" Captain Blackwell Interjected on the side. Hearing Blackwell''s words, Director Hodges fell into deep thought, carefully recalling the situation at that time, who had the opportunity to leave this sentence alone, and directly helped him lock his target on his secretary. Because at that time he remembered that after his secretary assigned the task, he also persuaded himself to show that the Japanese had given him a lot of benefits and not to do anything to the Japanese. After he refused, he seemed to say what he was going to do! Just left for a while. Thinking about it now, he should have gone to report the news at that time. As for how the Japanese received the information, there is no need to investigate at all, because the Japanese are surrounded heavily, it is impossible for someone to rush in to report the news, they can only be outside, and outside Only the phone can notify the other party. When the time comes, check the telephone company and find out. Thinking of this, Chief Hodges stood up suddenly. "Fang, I think I know who it is, I''m going to go back and catch him now! I''ll visit you after I''m done!" Obviously Director Hodges is not stupid. He just has no experience with this kind of espionage case and has no direction to handle the case. After the two reminded him, he immediately thought of who was the most suspicious. (end of this chapter) Chapter 34: Recruitment Chapter 34 Recruitment "I suggest that Mr. Director, if you have a suspicious target, don''t alert the other party. You can try to catch big fish with a long line, maybe there will be unexpected gains!" Fang Lang saw that Director Hodges already had a target he suspected , is about to arrest people, quickly reminded softly. When Director Hodges heard it, Fang Lang''s words immediately felt reasonable, and he was no longer eager to go back and arrest the spies. If more spies could be discovered through this spy, I believe the mayor would not have any objections. "Fang, you are right. You have helped me a lot this time. Blackwell told me yesterday that your compatriots were targeted and humiliated by the Japanese in Sao Paulo. As the chief of police, I failed to do anything. It was my negligence. Dont worry, the Japanese will become unwelcome people in Sao Paulo from today onwards, and I will ask all the police to put them under residential surveillance, making it difficult for them to walk in Sao Paulo. This is the main purpose of Director Hodges'' visit this time. I hope that Fang Lang can express his apology for the failure of the St. Paul Police Department to stand up and deal with the bullying of the Chinese group in the past. Fang Lang understood that if it hadn''t been for Colonel Teach telling Captain Blackwell to take care of his own safety this time, what happened last night would not have happened, let alone Mr. Director''s visit to apologize today. It seems that Brazil is a dictatorial country with a very serious bureaucratic style. It is not wrong for me to choose to stay in the army. After all, Brazil will have a military dictatorship that lasts for 21 years. I only have Holding power in the military can ensure that the interests of Chinese compatriots in Brazil will not be violated. "Haha Director Hodges, what are you talking about? We are friends, and friends should understand each other. Let him get over the original matter! But I hope we can always be friends in the future, how about it! "Fang Lang got up and shook hands with Director Hodges cordially. "Okay, good friend, Fang, we are good friends from now on, if there is anything that needs my help, I hope you are welcome, I will spare no effort to help you achieve it." "Haha Hodges, my friend, I will not be polite if I need your help! But you can rest assured that we Chinese will never let our friends help for nothing!" laugh it out. At noon, Fang Lang left Director Hodges and Captain Blackwell at home, had a hearty lunch with Fang Lang''s family members, and introduced his family members to two friends one by one. Especially Fang Lang''s uncle, Fang Xinshui, knew Chief Hodges from the beginning, but the original relationship was not very close, but after Fang Lang''s introduction, Chief Hodges directly stated that if Fang Xinshui had anything to do, he would go directly to the police station Find him, or call him, there is nothing he can''t settle, the only difference is that he didn''t directly say that he will be Fang Xinshui''s umbrella in the future. After the guests left, the family members wondered why Fang Lang knew so many important people. For ordinary Chinese families, the chief of the garrison and the police chief of St. Paul can indeed be regarded as very big figures. Fang Lang smiled and said that he would be a bigger and bigger man in the future. The family members all rolled their eyes at him. In the afternoon, while wandering around the village, Fang Lang was thinking about what to do tonight. He thought about it for a long time. Now he can only recruit everyone to do things for him, and he cannot directly expose his goals. To establish a secret organization, you need to come secretly, and you have to examine each member''s belief, ability, and loyalty before you can invite him. If you directly set up an organization regardless of the three seven twenty-one, it will take less than two days. St. Paul knows it all. Therefore, when many young people in the village came to Fang Lang''s house at night, Fang Lang said that he wanted to recruit some crew members from Global Trading Co., Ltd. to train his own captain, and then he would go on the route from Brazil to the motherland. I hope that those who are interested will come He is here to report. Many villagers were dissatisfied, thinking that it was a major issue related to the interests of all Chinese people to discuss, but they came to recruit crew members, and many people even turned around cursing and leaving, but Fang Lang didn''t care, and even felt a little fortunate in his heart Fortunately, I didn''t directly say that I want to set up a Chinese organization, otherwise, based on the situation of these people, I guess they will be called out soon after they come in, so there will be no secrets in this organization. However, Fang Lang still recruited more than 20 people, and three of them were Fang Lang''s children. The reason why Fang Lang was able to recruit so many people is not that it is difficult to find jobs in Brazil. During this period, Brazil is in a period of rapid economic development and lacks human resources, so many people who came here this time actually have jobs . But to be honest, the welfare benefits of Brazilian workers during this period were very poor. Not to mention working more than 12 hours, the wages were pitifully low. The monthly salary of ordinary production workers was less than 20 dollars. This is also the reason why Brazilian President Vargas founded the Labor Party in March. He hopes to expand his political influence by creating the Labor Party and improving the treatment of workers. It''s a pity that, as an authoritarian head of government, he began to let go of his power and hoped to use his influence to reverse Brazil''s political ecology, which was obviously too naive. But the current president is still far away from Fang Lang. What he can do is to give his compatriots a monthly salary of fifty dollars plus a high salary with extra subsidies for going to sea to attract everyone to join his company. Although he won''t tell everyone that this is his own company, many people will definitely know who the real boss behind this company is in the future. After telling everyone to go home and get ready to board the ship in Santos port a week later, let everyone go home. Grandpa couldn''t understand why Fang Lang didn''t organize everyone to set up a Chinese organization as he said. But he didn''t ask, he knew that his eldest grandson was a very assertive person now. I am already old, and I have to believe in the abilities of young people. Early the next morning, Fang Lang sent a telegram to inform the three cargo ships in Rio de Janeiro to set sail for the port of Santos, and then sent telegrams to the branches in Italy and the United States to understand the current situation of the company. Mr. Cohens, who was having a headache being urged by the Gambino family, sent a long telegram as soon as he received Fang Lang''s news. Generally speaking, the cigarette market is very hot. Mr. Boyan Gambino hoped to expand the supply, saying that with the fierce fighting, the supply of cigarettes began to fall short of demand. At the same time, Mr. Kerns also expressed concern that the company has only one downstream distributor in Gambino. Fang Lang didn''t expect that the Gambino family would withdraw cigarettes worth more than three million dollars from Global Trade in such a short period of time. It seems that the speed of transporting cigarettes by himself will be accelerated. As for the question of adding new downstream distributors that Mr. Kerns considered, Fang Lang replied directly, asking Mr. Kerns to find downstream distributors of other commodities in Italy. The cigarettes are still handed over to the Gambino family, which is a plan negotiated in advance. At the same time, Kerns was also required to develop downstream distributors of cigarettes in France and Germany. Said he would soon have $20 million worth of cigarettes shipped from Brazil. I worry that too many quantities will have an impact on the price of cigarettes. Cohens listed a large list of goods that are currently scarce in Italy, mainly for people''s livelihood, mainly grain, oil, sugar and seasonings. But the profits of these commodities are obviously not as high as cigarettes. But agriculture is the pillar industry of Brazil, and these products are also materials urgently needed by European countries after the war. They must arrange in advance, and have the ability to process these commodities while having strong transportation capabilities. So in the next few days, Fang Lang started a frenzied investment and acquisition activity. He met Mayor Scalia through Director Hodges, and after learning that Fang Lang was going to invest tens of millions of dollars in Sao Paulo on behalf of American Global Trade, the entire market was shocked. The government began to help Fang Lang carry out acquisition activities, and acquired three cigarette factories, two sugar factories, a grain and oil processing factory, and a newspaper office for Fang Lang. Because they are all small factories, after the acquisition, Fang Lang directly expressed the hope that the city government can sell a piece of land to allow Fang Lang to build a larger factory area, and purchase more advanced equipment from the United States to build more advanced factories. time centralized management. The city government was overjoyed, and started re-urban planning without saying a word, converting a 10,000-hectare piece of land in downtown Sao Paulo near Santos Port into industrial land, and began to resettle the residents on the land. In order to thank the municipal government for its support, Fang Xinshui set up a real estate development company under Fang Lang''s instruction to build a resettlement community for all the demolished households. However, the land in the resettlement community should not only be used to resettle the demolished residents, but also allow the development company to develop real estate by itself project. The municipal government readily agreed and tripled the land size of the original resettlement area. (end of this chapter) Chapter 35: influences Chapter 35 Impact On the last day of the holiday, Fang Lang watched the three cargo ships loaded with cargo, and set off with the manpower he recruited in Brazil. Only then did he explain the plan and direction of the factory to his father and the manager of the Brazil branch of Global Trade that he had recruited in Italy, and asked them to start expanding the production scale now, without worrying that the produced goods would not be sold. All other products were hoarded, waiting for the cargo ship arranged by Fang Lang to come and tow them away. Even gave advice to uncle Fang Xinshui. The uncle of the real estate development company is a legal person, but the actual boss behind the scenes is Fang Lang. Fang Lang is very aware of the profits of future real estate companies. After explaining everything, Fang Lang bid farewell to his parents again, bid farewell to his hometown and boarded a plane to Rio. He will wait in Rio for three cargo ships for global trade and head north together under the **** of the Brazilian Navy. "Report, Lieutenant Fang Lang, come to report after the holiday." Fang Lang, who returned to Rio, immediately came to Colonel Tiqi''s office to report. "Haha Fang, you are finally back." Colonel Tiqi didn''t mind the difference in rank between himself and Fang Lang at all, and gave Fang Lang a big hug. It seems that American native products are indeed a sharp weapon to improve the relationship between superiors and subordinates in the Brazilian army! "Only two companies of army supplementary soldiers that need to be transported by you this time have arrived. I will take you to get to know them later. The **** fleet that will **** you will arrive in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow. There is plenty of time. In addition to the two days There is nothing particularly important to replenish the supplies of the ship and overhaul the ship, so I suggest that you take these two days to experience the enthusiasm of the girls in Rio de Janeiro." Colonel Tiqi was very enthusiastic. "Understood, sir, thank you very much this time! Captain Blackwell really helped me a lot in St. Paul." Fang Lang was grateful for Colonel Teach''s help from the bottom of his heart. If it wasn''t for one of his orders, St. Paul''s Whether the Black Dragon Society will be eradicated, it will not make it difficult for the Japanese to move forward in Sao Paulo. Fang Lang believes that because of this incident, the flow of Japanese immigrants to Brazil after World War II should be significantly curbed. Combined with the bad impression of the Japanese by Director Hodges and Mayor Scalia in the later period, it is estimated that it will be very difficult for the Japanese to immigrate to Sao Paulo. "Haha Fang, I didn''t help you. Captain Blackwell is very grateful to you! If it wasn''t for you, they wouldn''t have discovered the Japanese spying activities in Brazil. This time the incident was very big. , Mr. President has issued a strict order that the escaped Japanese spies must be captured as soon as possible. The military even intends to imprison all the Japanese. And Captain Blackwell will also benefit a lot from this matter. The news I heard is He may be transferred to the intelligence bureau as the majors deputy director. Just wait for Blackwells thanks! Haha Colonel Teach is obviously very proud of the huge gains from this unintentional move. Fang Lang didn''t expect that Captain Blackwell would gain so much because of such a case, and he was about to have a friend who worked in the Intelligence Bureau. This was a big surprise, although the capabilities of the Brazilian Intelligence Bureau and Not strong, but no matter how you say it, he is still a privileged institution! "Really? It really needs Captain Blackwell to treat guests to a big meal!" "Haha. You kid can send you away with a big meal! You can''t let him go without arranging two beauties for a night of carnival, understand!" Colonel Tiqi was obviously happy from the bottom of his heart, although Fang Lang didn''t know the specific relationship between him and Captain Blackwell, but he was certain that they must be closer than himself. "Yes, what you said makes sense. It''s okay to be ugly. You have to empty his pockets. Haha." Talking about women between men can indeed draw in the relationship between the two. "You boy, I heard that you already have two beautiful little beauties in Italy! Be careful of the fire in the backyard!" Colonel Tichi didn''t know whether it was intentional or not, but he even told about Fang Lang having two girlfriends in Italy. This surprised Fang Lang, it seems that no one should be underestimated! Unexpectedly, Colonel Tici in Brazil already knew about his own affairs in Italy. Fortunately, I did not do anything to be sorry for Brazil. Otherwise, maybe, I won''t be able to go back. Fang Lang pretended to be shocked and said: "You all know this, and your news is too well-informed!" Fortunately, he did not hide this information in Italy, and he was not afraid of others knowing it. "You kid, do you think that we will directly hire the ship of the Global Trading Company without any investigation! What a good boy, I heard Lieutenant Colonel Graham say that the two sister flowers are stunning! They are so cheap You boy. It seems that you are really good at picking up girls. Although I dont know how you know such a powerful American company, but if you can arrange a job for your father-in-law, you can get this pair of sisters in your pocket, and It''s really your job." Colonel Tich obviously also knew that Fang Lang hadn''t done anything to offend Brazil, and he was able to use his own relationship to bring three transport ships to Brazil, which could be regarded as a solution to the urgent need of the navy. So I didn''t pay much attention to Fang Lang''s behavior in Italy. Fang Lang felt relieved when he heard Tiqi''s words. Obviously they didn''t go to the United States to investigate who the boss behind this company was. It seems that we need to find an opportunity to go to the United States to re-register several companies to cross-hold shares behind Global Trade and hide ourselves a little deeper. Hearing Colonel Tiqi''s words, Fang Lang could only laugh apologetically and say, "Hehe. You''re over the top! It''s average, mainly because it''s handsome, and ordinary people can''t learn it." Colonel Titch was drinking coffee, and Fang Lang''s narcissistic words made him almost spit out the coffee. Pointing at Fang Lang dumbfoundingly, he said: "You can say this, I understand why you can accept sister flowers. Get lost! Stop teasing me, an old guy, here." Fang Lang didn''t mind, he got up and saluted and said goodbye, "Goodbye, sir!" In any case, Colonel Tiqi''s help to Fang Lang, or to the Chinese is very great, even if he does it casually, but the follow-up impact will not only have a very bad influence on the Japanese, but also on other people. People are very helpful. When Fang Lang came to his berth with a backpack on his back, the crew on the Gilas had also returned and were interacting enthusiastically on board. Obviously, everyone had a very happy holiday this time. Seeing Fang Lang coming back, everyone stood at attention and saluted! After Fang Lang shook hands with everyone in the past, he called the first mate de la Torre to the captain''s room and asked about the recruitment of the crew. In order to recruit crew members for the Global Trading Company, Fang Lang gave the favorable conditions that for every person recruited, he would give the introducer a ten-dollar introduction fee. "Reporting to the captain, almost every member of the crew has brought two to three sailors. I have conducted a screening for you in the early stage. The number of crew members who passed my assessment is 168. This is the list, please Check it out." First Mate de la Torre really thanked his young officer from the bottom of his heart. This time, de la Torre rested for four days. His home is a slum in Rio de Janeiro, so he was very close to his home, but when he got home, his son had a high fever, and his wife had no money and was in a hurry. When he was at a loss, de la Torre returned home, and the one hundred and twenty dollars in his hand could be regarded as a timely gift, which made de la Torre feel grateful to Fang Lang. "Oh! Did you recruit so many people this time! Very good, you did a good job, let me take a look. Hey! Old De, you introduced six sailors by yourself! Not bad, not bad. Where are the personnel placed! Make arrangements for basic necessities, food, housing and transportation!" Fang Lang glanced at the list that de la Torre handed over, and found that among the introducers behind, the first mate alone had introduced six people. Can''t help laughing and joking. "Sir, don''t worry, the sailors I introduced are all excellent sailors, many of whom are retired from our navy. As for the personnel, they are now arranged at the pier purchased by Global Trading Company in Rio." "Well! That''s good, let''s go and see them together later, I haven''t visited Rio yet! There is still some time to ride, and today we will go to see them in the past two days." Fang Lang has been to Rio de Janeiro many times in his previous life , but I havent been in this life yet, and I want to see what the city of God is like in this era. Is the largest slum in the world now in shape? When de la Torre heard that Fang Lang was going to visit Rio de Janeiro, he quickly said: "Sir, I am from Rio, and I will be your guide. If you don''t mind, you can come to my house as a guest." Fang Lang was not polite when he heard that De la Torre was from Rio. "It turns out that this is your hometown, Lao De. I didn''t say anything. Let''s go to your house to visit your family." (end of this chapter) Chapter 36: to be a guest Chapter 36 Guest After the two had lunch with the crew on board, they drove the jeep on the base and entered Rio de Janeiro. At this time, Rio is already one of the largest cities in South America. The two sat in the jeep for sightseeing all the way, and while de la Torre introduced the scenery and characteristics of Rio to Fang Lang, he drove the car to his home. Della Torres home is right under the statue of **** in the City of God. This is the largest slum in the world in later generations. Various criminal activities emerge in endlessly, and the police dare not come in to enforce the law. Of course, the government has not officially relocated all the poor people here, so the world''s largest slum has not yet been seen. But Fang Lang could tell at a glance that the environment here was very bad, so he couldn''t help but say: "I said Lao Lei, does your family live here?" "Yes, sir, the house here is the cheapest. Our family has too many people, and all the income depends on my salary, so we can only afford this kind of house." De La Torre was a little embarrassed and said It is a matter of course. "It stands to reason that with your income, you shouldn''t be able to live in such a poor environment!" "It turns out that my family''s environment is better, but my mother had a serious illness a few years ago, and all the family savings were used to see the doctor. In addition, my son contracted pneumonia after swimming once. Because there was no timely treatment, the delay was too long. I have grown up, so now I have to take medicine every day. Fortunately, I have penicillin now. Although it is a bit more expensive, it is much better now. This time it is also thanks to your allowance! Last time I went home, if I hadnt had your allowance , my son is probably gone. Della Torre said it very easily, but Fang Lang listened very seriously. The current medical level is not high, and ordinary people simply cannot afford to be sick. But there was a word in de la Torre''s words that caught Fang Lang''s attention. Penicillin, a special medicine and anti-inflammatory drug, exists like a magic medicine in this era. In Fang Lang''s impression, it has always been priced at gold. In Fang Lang''s impression, this special medicine has no patent restrictions. I don''t know whether Brazil has mastered the production technology of this drug. "What are you talking about? You paid for it with your hard work. I know the penicillin you just mentioned. It is indeed a good anti-inflammatory drug. I don''t know where the one you bought in Brazil is produced?" Only a few countries in the United Kingdom and the United States have mastered the production technology of penicillin, and all we can buy in Brazil are made in the United States. It seems that there is no factory in Brazil that produces this drug. Della Torre''s words made Fang Lang fall into deep thought, and began to think silently in his heart. While chatting, the two looked at the endless stream of people on both sides, and soon arrived at De La Torre''s home. There are six people in de la Torre''s family. In addition to their husband and wife, there are parents and two sons. The eldest son is twelve years old, but he is not in good health due to pneumonia. The younger son is only seven or eight years old. Bedridden, his father is over 70 years old and unable to work, so the conditions at home are very poor. His wife has to take care of the family at home, and basically relies on de la Torre''s salary to live. The family members were very enthusiastic when they heard that de la Torre''s chief was visiting the house. Fang Lang also handed over the gift he had already prepared in a timely manner, and visited de la Torre''s sick mother and son. Della Torre''s wife is a typical Brazilian mixed race, with the unique enthusiasm of Brazilians, and very enthusiastically invited Fang Lang to take a bath together. Fang Lang knows that the highest etiquette for a hostess in Brazil to treat guests is to take a bath with you. Although the original body has been staying in Brazil, he is used to this etiquette, but as a child born in a Chinese family, he cannot accept this etiquette. What''s more, Fang Lang, who came through time, felt very embarrassed, but Fang Lang knew that he couldn''t refuse, which would hurt the master''s heart. It could only be reluctantly rinsed, and then ran out quickly. De La Torre on the other side explained: "Old Lei, I''m really sorry. We Chinese think bathing is a very private thing, and we are not used to this kind of etiquette in Brazil. Please believe me, I don''t mean to look down on your family!" "Haha. Sir, I understand what you mean, don''t worry. I will explain to my wife." De La Torre looked at Fang Lang with an embarrassed face. Although he felt strange, he didn''t care too much. He just thought it was Fang Lang Lang rarely visits other people''s homes. Seeing that de la Torre was not dissatisfied with his rudeness, Fang Lang was a little relieved. The two were at de la Torre''s house again. After having a meal that was not particularly sumptuous, Fang Lang suggested that de la Torre return to the ship to report tomorrow, and he planned to drive back to the base. But just as Fang Lang walked out of the narrow alleyway and was about to go out to pick up the car, he collided lightly with a figure who passed by. Both of them looked back at each other, and Fang Lang realized that the other party was the same as himself Asian face, about forty years old. Apparently, the other party also discovered that he also had the same Asian face, and he was also wearing a military uniform. The other party hurriedly lowered his head and bowed, expressing his apology. What this person didn''t notice when he bent down was that Fang Lang''s eyes shrank slightly. But without waiting for the other party to get up, he just walked away. After the Japanese got up, he saw that Fang Lang had left, and muttered in Japanese: "Asshole, it''s really rude!" Turned around and walked on. But he didn''t notice that after he left, the rude guy in his mouth followed him secretly, because there were many houses in the slums, alleys connected to alleys, and Fang Lang dared not follow him in military uniform Too close, afraid of being discovered by the other party, but after turning two corners, the other party''s figure was lost. After Fang Lang looked around, he didn''t dare to startle the snake, so he retreated quietly. It rang again, the door of Della Torre''s house. When Della Torre saw that Fang Lang had returned, he thought Fang Lang was lost, so he hurriedly welcomed Fang Lang into the house. But seeing Fang Lang make a silent gesture, de la Torre was taken aback for a moment, but his alertness as a soldier made him immediately understand what Fang Lang meant. This is a situation. After looking out the door vigilantly, seeing nothing unusual, he closed the door, walked into the room with Fang Lang, and asked in a low voice, "Captain, what''s wrong!" "Call out your family members, I''ll ask something." Soon De La Torre''s parents, wife and children all came out, looking at Fang Lang, wondering why the guest who had just left came back again. Only Fang Lang asked: "Sorry to bother you again, I want to ask if you have noticed two Japanese people coming nearby recently, they are Asians with the same skin color as me." Seeing several people, they all shook their heads. Obviously, this family is the kind of person who rarely goes out. Just when Fang Lang thought there was nothing to gain, de la Torre''s youngest son said timidly: "There seem to be two uncles next door to Toby''s house." Fang Lang was overjoyed, and quickly asked, "Little friend, have you seen them?" "Yeah! I saw them yesterday when I went to Toby''s house to play." Fang Lang turned his head to look at de la Torre and said, "Do you know where this Toby''s home is?" "Of course, Mr. Captain, is there any problem with the two Asians you mentioned?" "Yes, take me to see the way first, and let''s confirm the specific location together. This may improve the living environment of your family." Fang Lang''s words stunned de la Torre, what does it mean that two Asians can change their family''s living environment! But de la Torre didn''t ask, but got up and was about to go out with Fang Lang. Fang Lang hurriedly stopped and said, "Let''s change into casual clothes, and don''t let them find out." That''s right, the person Fang Lang accidentally encountered this time was Seiichi Ono, one of the two Japanese spies who escaped in Sao Paulo, and the right-hand man of Kato Takaichi, the president of the Brazilian Black Dragon Association. Fang Lang couldn''t help sighing in his heart, there was really nowhere to find after breaking through the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it. Originally, Fang Lang was thinking about whether to support his first mate. As a result, it''s all right now, and the walking five thousand dollars came to my door. Soon after the two changed into casual clothes, they were led by de la Torre to the Toby''s house that his youngest son called. Fang Lang looked at the surrounding environment, isn''t this the place where he lost his target? The two of them didn''t stop there, they just walked past the house and glanced inside like passers-by. After another long circle, I returned to the house of de la Torre. Fang Lang explained to de la Torre in a low voice: "When I returned to Sao Paulo this time, the Sao Paulo Police Department cracked a Japanese spy case, in which two spy leaders escaped, and the Sao Paulo Police Department is offering a reward for two people. I just went back I accidentally ran into a person, it was one of the two. Tonight, you work hard and keep an eye on this yard. I will inform my friends in the Intelligence Bureau. I will try to catch these two **** tomorrow and take them in one fell swoop. Next, we will earn some rewards when the time comes." Della Torre couldn''t help but get serious when he heard that there was still such a thing. He nodded quickly and climbed up to the roof. It seemed that he was going to monitor them directly from the roof. (end of this chapter) Chapter 37: arrest Chapter 37 Arrest After Fang Lang gave de la Torre a few words, he went out directly, found the vehicle, drove all the way, found the nearest phone booth, and called Captain Blackwell. After all, he heard that he was about to be promoted to be in charge Such a case, give him credit. "Hello! Who! I''m Blackwell." Captain Blackwell''s familiar voice came from the phone. "Haha. Sure enough, he is someone who is going to be promoted! The voice is different! Hehe" Listening to Blackwell''s full voice, Fang Lang joked. "It turns out to be Fang. Your news is really well-informed. You have already received rumors about things that haven''t been officially announced!" "Isn''t this a matter of course! Everyone came here on their own! Congratulations to Mr. Major in advance, promotion and salary increase!" "Haha. Thank you! Fang, my promotion is due to your credit! Don''t worry, we are brothers. In the future, if you have anything to do, just ask." Blackwell can be regarded as a coincidence, and he was assigned this credit by accident. Speaking of it, this matter really has nothing to do with Fang Lang. Fang Lang didn''t dare to take credit. "I don''t know what it means to take my credit for it. I''m just a lieutenant in the navy who went back to his hometown to visit his relatives." "Fang, we brothers, there are some things that need not be said, we are all in our hearts, you wait and see the performance of your brother." Obviously although Fang Lang felt that it had nothing to do with him, Captain Blackwell still credited Fang Lang with the credit at the time. He felt that Fang Lang could not care about the credit, but he had to keep it in mind. Fang Lang could only use jokes to avoid entanglement on this topic. He glanced at the people coming and going by the phone booth, and said in a low voice: "Haha. I''m waiting for you to take me to experience the enthusiasm of a Brazilian girl! Speaking of credit, I have one in hand now. I don''t know if Mr. Major is interested." "How come you just left, and you have new credits to give to my brother." Fang Lang''s words stunned Blackwell on the other end of the phone. What do you mean? I just congratulated myself on my promotion, and I''m about to send credit for it. Because he didn''t know whether it was safe on the phone, Fang Lang said cryptically: "Hey! Isn''t five thousand dollars too tempting?" "Oh! You found someone who slipped through the net." Hearing Blackwell go straight to the topic, he didn''t know whether he didn''t care about the safety of the phone, or decided that the phone was safe, but since others have already said so, Fang Lang could only follow his words and continued: "That''s right, it was you who came to find me, and we went to catch it together, or did I bring someone to catch you and come to lead someone." Captain Blackwell pondered. "That''s it! You just arrest it, and I will go to find you with Director Hodges tomorrow morning. But you are the navy, and if you take action in Rio, it may make the police in Rio passive." Fang Lang knew that Blackwell was really reminding himself cryptically when he heard it, and laughed loudly: "Haha. Don''t worry, I don''t want to swallow all the credit by myself. Only by sharing the benefits can we make more friends! I will notify Colonel Tiqi and see if he wants to bring him to the Rio Police Station!" "Dear Fang, you are really a smart person, so your friends are all over Brazil!" "It''s our friends all over Brazil! Then it''s settled, you come to Rio to pick up the goods tomorrow." Fang Lang got hesitant, and hung up the phone without hesitation. It''s off work now, and I don''t know if I can contact Colonel Teach on the phone. Fortunately, Colonel Teach''s home is in the naval base. He no longer hesitates to jump on the Willys Jeep and rush all the way to the naval base, attracting many people on the road. Pedestrians cursed one after another! "Mr. Colonel, I am very sorry to disturb you so late!" Although Colonel Tiqi, who was approached by Fang Lang, was full of doubts, he still warmly invited Fang Lang to sit at home. "Fang, why are you so polite, we are friends, come in!" But the time was urgent, Fang Lang directly explained his intentions to Colonel Teach straight to the point. "Mr. Colonel, I won''t go in anymore. I just visited my first mate''s house and accidentally found the two Japanese spies who escaped from St. Paul. I would like to ask if you are interested in doing it yourself and catching two spies for fun!" "What, two Japanese spies from Sao Paulo, came to Rio de Janeiro?" Hearing that the Japanese spies had hid in Rio de Janeiro, Colonel Tich was very surprised. Although Sao Paulo is not far from Rio de Janeiro, how did the two spies escape from Sao Paulo''s arrests and come to Rio safely! "Yes, I met them face to face, recognized one of them at a glance, and found their hiding place, and now my first officer is watching outside their house." "Then what are you waiting for, let''s go, let''s take our people and go directly to get it, and then let Blackwell bring a gift and exchange it! Haha." Hearing that the location of the spy had been determined, Colonel Teach set out to act without hesitation. This made Fang Lang, who wanted to ask if he needed to notify the police, immediately chose to shut up. If Colonel Teach felt it was necessary, he would He will definitely propose to notify the police. If Colonel Teach thinks it is unnecessary, then he should stop talking. But from his tone, it can be seen that Blackwell and Colonel Teach really have a different relationship. "I have already called Blackwell, and he will come tomorrow morning! Originally, I wanted to give him these two people as a promotion gift, but he didn''t know if he was worried about Night Changmeng asking us to do it. He will come tomorrow to receive people." Fang Lang was a little embarrassed. After all, he notified Blackwell first, and he came to find Colonel Teach when someone asked them to do it. This is a bit out of order. Fortunately, Colonel Teach and Captain Blackwell were close and didn''t mind. Otherwise, it is estimated that there will be small shoes to wear. Colonel Teach saw Fang Lang''s expression, smiled and patted Fang Lang''s shoulder and said, "Go, let''s go and gather people." Soon in the quiet barracks, a group of fully armed marines was assembled. With Colonel Teach waving his hand, all the soldiers boarded the truck and followed Fang Lang''s jeep all the way to Rio. Near the slums. Fortunately, the current Rio slums are not the City of God after 1960, and they have not developed into the later gang dens and lawless places. Otherwise, don''t talk about going in to catch spies. I''m afraid that the gangsters inside have already started firing at the military vehicles as soon as they parked outside the slums. Bursts of rapid brakes sounded, and the heavily armed soldiers assembled in groups in an orderly manner, and then groped towards the destination under the command of officers at all levels. In fact, in Fang Lang''s mind, there is no need to use such a large-scale force to catch two Japanese spies. One is that it is easy to make too much noise and arouse the alertness of the target. Second, with so many people surrounding them, it didn''t look like an arrest, but more like a fight. But it is obviously not Fang Lang who is calling the shots now, maybe this is Brazil''s style of doing things! There is no skill at all in working, and they are all reckless. Watching the brigade gradually surround the house where the target is located, then Colonel Teach assigned a squad of soldiers to kick open the door of the Japanese with a weapon, and then Fang Lang heard crackling shots from inside Voice. Fang Lang felt MMP in his heart, this is still a ball! It seems that we can only go in and collect the corpse. It seems that this kind of arrest is really not suitable for the passionate Brazilians. They may be more suitable for a reckless journey. Soon, the gunfire stopped, and several soldiers dragged the two motionless figures from inside to Fang Lang. Fang Lang took advantage of the light of the flashlight to look at the appearance of the two figures on the ground, and turned to his side Colonel Titch nodded and said: "That''s right, these two guys." Colonel Tiqi heard it, Fang Lang confirmed the target, and said with a smile on his face: "Medical soldier, come and see, these two bastards, are there any help!" Looking at the medical soldiers who were checking the two people on the ground, Fang Lang shook his head in his heart. If you want to live, you can''t just rush in like this! In my heart, I couldn''t help giving a thumbs up to Colonel Tiqi in front of me, you are really not ordinary reckless. "Report sir, one of them is dead, and the other may still have a chance to be rescued!" "Then send this **** who is not dead to the hospital to see if he can be revived. If he can survive, his life will be considered good." Colonel Tiqi waved his hand casually. Signal the soldiers to carry away those who are still alive. (end of this chapter) Chapter 38: Anticlimactic Chapter 38 Anticlimactic After this arrest operation, Fang Lang finally understood why the Yankees had to train for so long before sending the Brazilian army to the front lines in Europe. Such a simple arrest operation dispatched a whole company of marines, and achieved The result of the battle is that one died and one was seriously injured. The Brazilian Navy also paid the price, with one seriously injured and two slightly injured. Colonel Titch said that he was very satisfied with the results of this battle. This made Fang Lang feel very speechless, but as the largest country in South America, the surrounding environment is also very safe, and there is basically no threat of war, so Fang Lang is relieved after thinking about it. When Director Blackwell and Director Hodges arrived in Rio de Janeiro by plane the next day, they saw Seiichi Ono, who was out of danger in the hospital, and were pleasantly surprised at being able to catch a living creature. Obviously, this exceeded their expectations. "Haha Fang, you guys are amazing, we actually have a living mouth, it seems we can hold a trial for him." Director Hodges said excitedly. "Of course, brother, now he belongs to you, and it''s your right to do what you want with him." Although Fang Lang was speechless, he had achieved his goal, and he couldn''t ask for too much. "Haha. Thank you so much, brother! I brought your bounty this time. I think your luck is really good. I suggest you change careers to be a bounty hunter. You will definitely make a fortune. " "Don''t be so polite, this is five thousand dollars sent to your door, besides, we are brothers, aren''t we! Being a bounty hunter seems like a good idea, I will seriously consider it, maybe I can really try it after I retire Isn''t it! Hehe" Of course, it is impossible for Fang Lang to be a bounty hunter. How much money he can make is not as much as Fang Lang''s casual sale of cigarettes. As a member of the military, Captain Blackwell obviously felt that credit was more important than money, so he said on the sidelines: "Fang, you can rest assured that I will report your credit for this incident. At that time, you will not only be able to receive the bounty. The credit for capturing the Japanese spy is not small." Seeing that Blackwell was about to assign the credit to himself, Fang Lang hurriedly said: "Hey brother, it''s not my fault alone. I just found him. It was my first mate de la Torre who found and monitored him. As for the one who caught them, it was Colonel Teach. You can''t take the credit It''s all on my head." Colonel Blackwell and Teach looked at Fang Lang with surprise on their faces. Unexpectedly, there are still officers in the Brazilian army who push the credit out. Everyone wants to take the credit of their subordinates for themselves. Blackwell said respectfully: "Fang, you are such a rare and good officer! I am starting to envy your first officer." Della Torre, who had been staying on the sidelines as a transparent person, was full of excitement. He knew that his chief was a very different kind of chief, but he never thought that he would be so different. Fang Lang didn''t care, this is the truth! Why does everyone look like they have seen a ghost. However, Fang Lang always had a question in his heart, and finally couldn''t help but ask it. "These are small things. However, I have a question, is it really okay for us not to notify the local police station of this kind of thing? After all, this time the movement is not small." He said and looked at Chief Hodges. "Haha, brother! You are worrying too much! We don''t need to think about these issues. Colonel Teach is not free to come here now. What do you think he is doing! Of course he is communicating with the police station! If you really let this Mr. Police Chief If we get involved, we''ll have nothing to do." Before Chief Hodges could express his opinion, Blackwell had already laughed and spoke, but Fang Lang could tell from his slightly sarcastic eyes that he probably didn''t like the police chief in Rio de Janeiro. Sure enough, Fang Lang soon saw the style of the police chief in Rio de Janeiro. When Blackwell treated everyone to dinner and returned to the hospital, he saw many policemen surrounding the hospital. Seeing this situation, Fang Lang didn''t think it had anything to do with it, but Blackwell and Director Hodges obviously changed their faces, and they rushed into the hospital quickly. In the ward at the moment, there was a big belly, A fat policeman with a fat head and ears, weighing more than two hundred and fifty catties, was arguing with Colonel Teach in the ward. "Mr. Colonel, you don''t need to tell me anymore, the dead one can be taken away by them, but the living one must be mine." Colonel Teach''s face was livid with anger, and he yelled angrily: "Amycus Lechner, don''t push yourself too far, I''ve made it very clear that this is an action of our military and has nothing to do with your local police station. Don''t look too ugly when you eat." It turns out that this person is the police chief of Rio de Janeiro, Amycus Lechner. Obviously, Blackwell overestimated the influence of Colonel Teach on the police chief. "What do you mean by your military''s actions? We also received a warrant from the St. Paul Police Department. This is a matter of our police system. It has nothing to do with your navy. Be careful. I will report directly to Mr. President and let you, the captain of the navy, eat it." Can''t walk around." As the chief of police in Rio de Janeiro, he dared to fight directly with the colonel of the navy. Fang Lang believed that this Mr. Chief must not be an ordinary person. According to him, he could communicate directly with the president. Fang Lang could only sigh in his heart that his background was strong enough. "If you have the guts, you can sue, I''m afraid you won''t succeed." Colonel Teach''s eyes almost burst into flames. Seeing that the emotions of both parties were about to lose control, Fang Lang was thinking about whether to step forward to stop him, but after thinking about his identity, it was not appropriate. Fortunately, Director Hodges on the side has already walked up and said: "Calm down, you two, don''t hurt your friendship because of the two Japanese! Can you save me? Come, let''s sit down in the next room and chat!" Obviously, both of them were a bit out of step. The appearance of Hodges gave the two people in the quarrel a step. Hodges ignored the attitude of the two, and directly dragged the two to a doctor''s office. After driving out the doctors inside, he closed the door and held a closed-door meeting for an hour. Although Fang Lang didn''t know what was discussed in it, the final result was that the injured Japanese spy was not suitable for long-distance travel, and was jointly tried by the Sao Paulo Police Department and the Rio de Janeiro Police Department. As for Colonel Tichi, his face was always gloomy. Perhaps this also sowed the seeds for what happened later. Fang Lang was also very speechless, and felt that what he did this time was a bit anticlimactic. If Brazilians do things in this style, Fang Lang really doesn''t know how to describe it. Why can''t it be dealt with in a win-win situation! Of course, Fang Lang may have taken it for granted. After all, he doesn''t know the situation in Rio de Janeiro, nor does he know the police chief. As a Chinese, maybe he still likes his way of thinking, communicate first and then act, first distribute the benefits, and everyone will act together under the negotiated framework, and the benefits will be shared. Of course, Fang Lang estimated that it would be difficult for him to convince him based on the toughness of the police chief he saw. Shaking his head and de la Torre went back to the naval base first. After all, it''s still not his turn to intervene in these matters. Anyway, the bonus has already been obtained, and Fang Lang directly divided the 2,500 US dollars in de la Torre. This made de la Torre repeatedly say that he gave too much, and he didn''t do anything, so he shouldn''t take so much. Fang Lang calmed down by saying that this was an order. I couldn''t be more grateful in my heart, and I had a heart willing to die for Fang Lang. This is of course Fang Lang''s deliberate move to buy people''s hearts. After all, he is not short of this money now, and it doesn''t matter to him to give it all to de la Torre, but he is afraid that de la Torre will feel that he is pitying him. well! It''s hard to be a good person! After these two incidents, Fang Lang has a new understanding of the Brazilian police and army, and he can do whatever he can, and grab the first place in credit. However, Fang Lang remembered that the combat effectiveness of the Brazilian expeditionary force in the European battlefield in history was not bad! Why is it such a bear in China? (end of this chapter) Chapter 39: surprise Chapter 39 Surprise Fang Lang, who returned to the ship, quickly put these things behind him, and learned about his business in the United States and Italy through the telegram on the ship. After Wan Chongxin in the United States got in touch with Fang Lang, he said that Fang Lang asked The factory equipment I was looking for has been found, and the ship can be arranged for shipment at any time, but considering the safety of shipping, it is recommended to wait for the boss''s transport fleet to transport it by itself. Fang Lang also arranged for Wan Chongxin to find penicillin production equipment in the United States and understand the process, and asked whether it was possible to establish a penicillin production plant in Brazil, even if it was only a small-scale factory. Mr. Cohens from Italy said that he has received the details of the goods sent by the Brazilian branch, and has begun to look for buyers in Italy. At the same time, two cigarette distributors have been found in France, and they can start negotiations with each other only after Fang Lang returns to Italy. Fang Lang directly asked Kerns to negotiate with the French dealer himself, and he only needed to go back to confirm the contract and give his father-in-law full trust. Finally, Fang Lang sent a telegram to Commodore Jackson, saying that he would continue to buy ten transport ships, and asked if Commodore Jackson had any in stock. Of course, Commodore Jackson would not refuse the door-to-door business, and directly stated that the original price and the original routine can be delivered at any time. Fang Lang notified Mr. Kerns to go to the Ministry of the Navy to sign the ship purchase contract. Soon, after gathering his three transport ships, the long-awaited **** fleet finally arrived. Fang Lang took his own fleet again and was escorted to Natal by the Brazilian Navy, then joined other ships and headed to Italy on the same route . Every time crossing the Atlantic Ocean is a test of life and death. Those who can break through layers of blockades and reach their destination are true heroes. Unfortunately, there is no Brazilian welcome ceremony in Italy this time. It is just a major of the Brazilian Expeditionary Army. With a few trucks, they picked up the supplementary soldiers on board. Fang Lang went to Colonel Atilio Parisi to report on his own. "Reporting officer, Lieutenant Fang Lang reports to you that the transport ship Gilas has successfully completed its transport mission, please give instructions!" Fang Lang said standing in front of Colonel Parisi in a standard military posture. "Lieutenant Fang, come in quickly, don''t be too polite, sit down and talk, sit down and talk." Sure enough, after the baptism of local products, it is different. This time, Colonel Parisi and Colonel Parisi that Fang Lang met for the first time are completely different. "Yes, sir!" "Fang, I heard that this time, you not only successfully completed the transportation task, but also achieved a great event! A commendation telegram has been sent from China! The expeditionary army headquarters have also sent praise. It seems that Fang you We will be ready to pick the stars soon!" Looking at the smiling Colonel Parisi, Fang Lang was in a daze. I knew that I had done something big. It should be a matter of Japanese spies, but what does picking a star mean! He hinted that he was going to be promoted, but he was only a lieutenant now! Even if you want to be promoted, you are still a captain! At most, the captain is adding an extra flower! How can you pick the stars! "Reporting sir, the subordinate is just lucky, just happened to meet two Japanese spies, I really can''t deserve your praise!" "Luck is also a kind of ability! You don''t have to be too humble. You just came back, and I have two more good news for you. First, in view of your excellent performance in this transportation mission, Lieutenant Colonel Graham, Ask General Morais for your credit, and after the approval of the Expeditionary Force Command, you will be awarded the rank of Captain of the Navy. This rank should have been awarded to you half a month ago. But because you are performing missions in the Atlantic Ocean, now I will grant it to you. Congratulations, Captain Fang Lang." Seeing Colonel Parisi''s face gradually become serious, Fang Lang quickly stood up and saluted: "Thank you, sir!" What is a surprise? This is a surprise. Lieutenant Colonel Graham really did what he said. At the beginning, I said that as long as Fang Lang solves the problem of the transport ship for him, he will apply for a promotion reward from his superiors. The last time Colonel Parisi added a flower to Fang Lang by mistake, Fang Lang thought it was wrong. will be upgraded. Unexpectedly, as soon as I returned to Italy, I received such a big surprise. I just transferred from the infantry army to the navy less than five months ago, and I was promoted three ranks in a row and became a navy captain. It''s like a heifer visiting relatives - awesome as hell. Looking at Fang Lang with a surprised face, Colonel Parisi smiled and put on his collar patch and said: "Young man, it''s too early to be happy, and there is a big surprise waiting for you tomorrow! Tomorrow morning, bring your big Deputy, you all report to the Expeditionary Force Headquarters!" "Yes, sir!" Hearing Colonel Parisi''s words, Fang Lang had already started to mutter in his heart, no way! No way! It''s not over yet, this is the rhythm of taking off! But if he really picks a star, will he not be able to serve as the captain of the Gilas? I don''t know what position I will be assigned next. What Fang Lang didn''t know was that Lieutenant Colonel Graham was also reporting Fang Lang''s situation to General Morais at this time: "General, as far as I know, Fang Lang has a close relationship with Commodore Jackson of the US Navy, who is called his uncle and nephew. He even has a close relationship with an American company called Global Trading Co., Ltd." "Oh! I didn''t expect our Brazilian expeditionary force to have such a guy with such a deep background in the United States, but it turned out that he didn''t show that he had such a deep background when he was in the army!" Major General Morais is the commander-in-chief of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. Although he only has the rank of Major General, he is also the Marshal of the Brazilian Army. He has great power. It can be said that it is very easy to know the information of his subordinates. According to the situation in the army, Fang Lang did not receive special care from the United States before he was injured! "This is exactly where my subordinates are confused, but the appearance of Fang Lang also solved the problem of the transport ship for us. I always think that the reason why Commodore Jackson agreed to assign us a transport ship is because Fang Lang happens to be the captain. Otherwise, we had asked so many times, but never agreed once, but as soon as Fang Lang appeared, the U.S. Navy immediately agreed to assign us a transport ship, and asked Fang Lang, who passed their assessment, to be the captain. This Didn''t it make it clear that this transport ship was prepared for Fang Lang?" Not to mention, according to Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s analysis, there is really nothing wrong with it. If Fang Lang is on the side, he has to agree that Graham''s analysis is very reasonable. "Then what do you think we should arrange for him if we promote him to major this time?" Morais lowered his head and picked up his own pipe to light. Through the flickering smoke, his sharp eyes became a little unpredictable. "I don''t know if the general agrees to let me test Fang Lang''s attitude. What I mean is, since the Americans are willing to provide us with a transport ship in order to arrange for him to be a transport captain on our side, if we Give him a higher position, will the Americans" Obviously, Lieutenant Colonel Graham is definitely General Morais''s confidant, and he has a very accurate grasp of General Morais'' thoughts, because following Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s speech, General Morais''s slightly incomprehensible gaze There, a trace of unnoticed smile flashed across the room. Although this trace of smile was fleeting, it still did not escape Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s eyes. "I don''t know if Fang Lang is capable of serving as the captain of a destroyer!" Morais''s tone was leisurely, moving from far to near. He didn''t know if he was worried or he was talking to himself, but his voice was just right enough to reach Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s ears. But Lieutenant Colonel Graham continued to speak as if he hadnt heard anything: "I heard that Fang Lang''s Gilas has already docked. I don''t know how you think about the new captain of the Gilas? Will we continue to lease ships from Global Trade this time when we return to Brazil? If we rely on the Gilas alone I''m afraid it will be difficult for us to quickly transport our backlog of spoils back to Brazil!" "Didn''t you put one of your men on the Gilas when it was established? Is he confident that he can control this transport ship now?" The person they were talking about was obviously the current second officer of the Gilas, Norbertlu Fendis, the guy who turned from the logistics department to the second officer of the transport ship. "Your Excellency, General, you really look like a torch. This person is indeed my man. Don''t worry, even if he is not sure about controlling this transport ship, I believe that there will be no problem with the current chief officer." Obviously, Lieutenant Colonel Graham already has plans for the future of the Gilas in his heart. "Then it''s up to you to talk to Fang Lang! You must fully seek his opinion on the new captain candidate, can''t you understand?" (end of this chapter) Chapter 40: The New Needs of the Navy Chapter 40 New Requirements for the Navy At the Port of Naples, Italy, Mr. Kerns is leading the staff of Global Trading Company to check the goods shipped from Brazil to Italy, most of which are cigarettes, and the rest are mostly sugar, pepper, wine and other items, while checking the goods Kerns was asking several captains. "Moscona, this voyage is going well!" "Of course, Mr. Kerns, he was under the protection of the naval fleet the whole time. Although there were several German attacks, they were all safe and sound." Moscona has question marks all over his face. Didnt the company report the itinerary? What else is Mr. Kerns asking himself now? "Then you don''t have to embarrass anyone in Brazil this time!" Squeezing the list in his hand, Mr. Kerns was a little hesitant to talk about his feelings. "Of course not, the whole process was arranged by the boss himself. We are either parked at the naval base or protected by the navy. How could someone come to trouble us without opening their eyes!" Mosconer glanced at Mr. Kerns strangely, not knowing what happened to Mr. Kerns today. "Does the boss have a huge network in Brazil?" Kearns was a little embarrassed by Mosconer''s eyes, and his face flushed slightly. "I''m not very clear about the specific situation, because I spend most of my time near the pier. You may need to ask the person in charge of the Brazil branch to know." Captain Moscona, who was a little puzzled by Mr. Coens with a twisted face in front of him, began to think about Mr. Coens'' intentions while answering Mr. Coens''s question. "Then you have been to the boss''s hometown, haven''t you! You brought back so many crew members recruited by the boss in Brazil this time." After a round of unnutritious words, Kerns finally decided to bring the question back to his own topic. "Of course, the boss''s home is near Puerto Sanchez." Mr. Captain has been entangled by Cohens and is a little confused. He can only answer whatever he asks. "I don''t know, have you ever heard them talk about the situation at the boss''s house?" Finally, Kerns asked the question he wanted to know the most! "Which ones are you referring to! Some of them I heard chatted with the bosses'' fellow countrymen on the boat." Mr. Captain, seeing the expression on Mr. Kerns'' face, had some rough guesses about his purpose in his heart, and couldn''t help feeling a little funny. "Hmm! It''s mostly about whether the boss has a girlfriend in Brazil or something, you know what I mean?" Coens obviously lost his patience with the dishonest Mr. Captain in front of him, so he decided not to hide any more, and went straight to the point! "Haha. I understand. Mr. Kerns is inquiring about the situation for Miss Lilith! Hehe, don''t worry! I really asked about this, and everyone said it." Moscona saw that Mr. Cohens finally revealed his true intentions, and he was relieved. You are not Chinese, so you cant speak directly! Around such a big bend. "What are you talking about?" Seeing that the gentleman on the boat stopped halfway, Kerns blurted out eagerly. "Hey, don''t worry! Mr. Kerns, the boss doesn''t have a girlfriend in Brazil! Hey." Mr. Captain laughed. And Kerns was also blushed by the tone of his deliberate joke. "Yeah. I see! Then you should hurry up and overhaul the ship. Since the cargo is almost unloaded, I''ll go first!" After finishing speaking, he ran away as if running away. At this time, Vice Admiral Amuro Chambers, commander of the U.S. Fourth Fleet in the U.S. Navy base, was chatting with Commodore Jackson of the Naval Logistics Department. "Jackson, the appetite of these Brazilians is getting bigger and bigger. Brazil is not threatened by war. This time, they actually want us to provide them with the most advanced naval destroyer. I don''t know what they want to use it for. , Could it be that you want to go to South America to become the king and hegemony!" Lieutenant General Chambers was a tall, strong white man with a meticulously buttoned military uniform, sharp eyes, and a three to four centimeter wound on his left cheek. Obviously, he was also a military general who had experienced the test of blood and fire. At this time, there was a little dissatisfaction in his eyes. "Your Excellency, the Brazilian navy is an old model from the First World War. They haven''t launched a new naval ship for more than 20 years. Now we see new warships from both of us and a brand new war mode. , It''s normal to have thoughts in your heart!" Brigadier General Jackson expressed his opinion calmly "So what do you mean! Are we meeting their demands?" Hearing Jackson''s words, Lieutenant General Chambers was obviously even more dissatisfied. "It depends on how your Excellency wants to use the Brazilian Navy. If you only need them to boo mines and clear mines, of course you don''t need to pay attention to their ideas, but if you need them to help us perform other combat tasks, provide Naturally, some military equipment has nothing to do with it." "What you said makes sense, but the combat capabilities of the Brazilian Navy are basically children''s play games, with no actual combat experience at all! What can I expect them to do!" The disdainful expression on Lieutenant General Chambers'' face was beyond words. "This subordinate doesn''t have any good ideas. I guess the Brazilian Navy doesn''t want to send their inexperienced navy to the front line to perform dangerous combat missions. It may be used to learn new ways of warfare and new ships. The boat concept is more likely." "This is also my guess, so I have some doubts about providing them with warships, but Eisenhower is very satisfied with the performance of the Brazilian Army. Admiral Jin hopes that the Brazilian Navy can also play a better role for us." Vice Admiral Chambers has a clear understanding of the thoughts of the upper navy. "Do you mean that the upper level intends to provide Brazil with warships?" "The upper echelon definitely wants to expand our influence in the Brazilian military. After all, America belongs to the Americans, so it can''t just be a slogan." "I understand what you mean! Then it seems that it is imperative to provide warships for the Brazilian Navy. I don''t know if there is a suitable person to support it now?" "This is also where we hesitate. Now Colonel Parisi of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force is actually a very suitable candidate. Unfortunately, he is the confidant of President Vargas, and President Vargas is a very good politician. Standing with us, just like when he stood with the Germans, when the Germans encountered a downturn, they immediately switched to our arms. This kind of fence-sitting faction cannot become a true pro-American faction. Talking about the specific candidates for support gave Lieutenant General Chambers a headache. After all, the United States began to intervene in Brazil''s politics, and it was only in the 1940s that it became effective. "Oh! If I need a friend who has a close relationship with us in the United States, I have a candidate. Unfortunately, he is only a small lieutenant and only has experience as a transport ship captain. He may not be qualified to be the spokesperson of the US Navy in Brazil. " Brigadier General Jackson, who had always looked calm, finally began to smile at this time. "Oh! Let''s talk about it, military rank and ability are not important, as long as he can keep up with our pace, what he lacks, we can make up for him." "This person is a Chinese of Brazilian descent, who belongs to a minority in Brazil. He was the captain of the transport ship we allocated to the Brazilian Navy last time. The reason why I chose him was because of his relationship with our US Navy. Very deep, he is the savior and best friend of General Clarks son John. Even General Clark once called and asked me to thank him for easing the relationship between their father and son. And this little guy is also very smart. His hands have already sold three captured transport ships for us, and he sent me a telegram some time ago, requesting to purchase another ten transport ships, but he has contributed a lot of funds to our Admiralty." "Hearing what you said, I''m starting to be interested in him. You talk to him first. If he really belongs to our pro-American faction, then you bring him over and I''ll talk to him about it." "Of course there is no problem. Their boat has returned to the pier today. I believe he will contact me soon. I will have a good chat with him then. I believe you will not be disappointed." (end of this chapter) Chapter 41: good news Chapter 41 Good News Fang Lang, the person everyone was talking about, really couldn''t wait to come to the Naval Hospital at this time, and hugged his girlfriend Lilith tightly. "Lilith, I finally see you again! Did you miss me?" The little girl had tears in her eyes, hugged Fang Lang''s waist tightly with a face of grievance, and buried Lihua''s rainy face in Fang Lang''s arms. "Fang, I miss you so much, you don''t even write me a letter, I want to write a letter, but I don''t know where to send it!" "Haha. Silly girl, I''ve been at sea, and the postman can''t catch up with me. By the time your letter arrives in Brazil, maybe I''ve already returned to you." Fang Lang could clearly feel Lilith''s heart from Lilith''s strong arm, and smiled and whispered comfort in the little girl''s ear. "But I miss you!" Feeling the little girl in his arms acting like a baby, Fang Lang would not refuse. "Hmm...I understand, I miss you too. Am I not back now? Do you want to take time off in the afternoon and go shopping with me?" For Fang Lang''s return, Lilith''s inner joy was beyond words. When she heard that Fang Lang was going to take her shopping, her head buried in Fang Lang''s chest moved happily. "Yeah! Then let''s pick up my sister!" Fang Lang didn''t expect that Lilith would still remember to bring Wei Wei''an with her at this time. It''s not that Fang Lang doesn''t like Wei Wei''an, nor does it mean that she doesn''t want to be with Wei Wei''an, but Fang Lang was with Lilith first after all, so it''s still I want to give myself and Lilith some separate space. "Are you sure you want to pick up your sister?" Hearing Fang Lang''s slightly hesitant question, Lilith looked puzzled and said: "Of course, this is our agreement, I can''t leave her alone to date you. Don''t you like Wei Wei''an?" As a man, how can there be such a good thing as not liking sisters, but Fang Lang also worries about whether Lilith really doesn''t mind at all when thinking about it from another perspective. "Of course not, but Lilith, do you really not mind at all?" "No! My sister and I have a good relationship! We will share everything together!" Looking at Lilith''s heartless expression, the scumbag man said the most scumbag thing he wanted to say. "But if this is the case! Am I too bad?" "We did it voluntarily! We can''t blame you!" Hearing Lilith''s answer, Fang Lang didn''t know how to describe his mood, both happy and guilty. The two laughed and went to school to pick up their younger sister Vivian! The three laughed and laughed all the way, and after dinner together, they sent the two back home. When Fang Lang returned to the naval base, Lieutenant Colonel Graham had been waiting outside Fang Lang''s barracks for a long time. Fang Lang saw Lieutenant Colonel Graham waiting outside the door at a glance, and hurried forward and said: "Lieutenant Colonel Graham, good evening! Are you waiting for me here?" "Oh! My God, Fang, you''re finally back, I''ve been waiting for you for almost an hour!" Mr. Lieutenant Colonel had obviously been waiting for a long time, he stood up, stomped his feet, rubbed his fingers and said. "Uh! I''m really sorry, sir. I just returned to Italy today. I have a lot of things to deal with, so I came back late. If you have any orders, please tell me directly." Fang Lang wouldn''t tell him that he was going shopping with his girlfriend in the afternoon. If Graham knew how long he was waiting, Fang Lang was enjoying the blessing of being equal to others, so it would be no wonder he wasn''t mad at death. "Haha. There is nothing to tell, but there is good news to tell you!" Seeing Fang Lang''s attitude, Graham couldn''t express any dissatisfaction, so he had to smile. "Haha. I see, Officer Graham, you are a leader who keeps your word, and you really do what you say. Thank you very much for your support." Hearing Graham say that he had good news to tell himself, Fang Lang thought that this person came here to claim credit for Fang Lang''s promotion from lieutenant to captain! I can''t help but think, don''t you see that the collar badge of your buddy is already the rank of captain! You only came here to ask for credit at this time, could it be too late? "Ah! No, Fang, you misunderstood. Your promotion to captain is just a trivial matter. This time I came here to tell you another good news!" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Lieutenant Colonel Graham waved his hands again and again. In the Brazilian army, as long as you have money and can bribe the officer, lieutenant officers are at your fingertips, and there is no gold content, so Lieutenant Colonel Graham said indifferently . "Ah! Any other good news?" Seeing Graham''s behavior, it is obvious that helping Fang Lang''s promotion from lieutenant to captain is not regarded as something worth showing off at all. This makes Fang Lang wonder what kind of good news Graham can bring to himself. become expectant. "That''s right, I believe you have received an order to report to the Expeditionary Force Headquarters tomorrow!" Looking at Fang Lang''s expectant expression, Graham began to play tricks. "Yes, Colonel Parisi has ordered me to report to the Expeditionary Force Command tomorrow morning! Is there any other good news here?" This kind of news has no meaning of keeping secret at all, so Fang Lang also takes it for granted that Lieutenant Colonel Graham can know. "Hey. Of course, your kid has done a big thing in Brazil this time quietly!" Lieutenant Colonel Graham looked at the young man in front of him enviously. After all, this was the first time Brazil had cracked an Axis spy organization in World War II. Therefore, the credit and influence are huge, otherwise such a trivial matter would require Mr. President to know, and the Ministry of Defense would need to call to commend it. Of course, this may also be the reason why Brazil joined the Allies for too short a time. There is no threat of war at all in its own country. At most, German submarines are cruising in the waters where the Brazilian Navy often appears, causing a lot of trouble for the Brazilian Navy! Therefore, in fact, World War II did not have much impact on Brazil. Of course, it has no impact at all. For example, the formation of the expeditionary force will definitely affect many families. The sharp increase in the material demand of the Allied countries has pushed many resource companies in Brazil to an unprecedented height. The Brazilian government has even made a lot of money. Only Brazils largest state-owned iron ore company, Vale, was officially established in 1942. Later generations can become the worlds largest iron ore processing and export company because of the During this period, the continuous sales of high-grade iron ore to the United States developed. Of course, none of this has anything to do with Fang Lang. Fang Lang only cares about what benefits he can get. "Hi! This is no big deal, it''s pure luck! The credit comes automatically! Does the good news you mentioned have anything to do with this?" Seeing Fang Lang''s expression, Graham knew that Fang Lang didn''t have a clear understanding of the benefits of this. "Of course, the Ministry of Defense sent a special award telegram, do you think it is good news!" I heard that it was an award from the Ministry of National Defense. Of course Fang Lang knew it was very rare, but what''s the point of an award without something practical! "Is it just a reward! That''s useless!" Looking at Fang Lang''s slightly disgusted expression, Lieutenant Colonel Graham couldn''t help but start to envy Fang Lang''s idiot. "Of course it won''t be as simple as just one award. I came to you in advance this time to tell you good news. Tomorrow you will officially enter the ranks of school-level officers." Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s words finally confirmed what Fang Lang heard from Colonel Parisi''s words. However, this credit is not his own alone. After all, Fang Lang brought de la Torre with him when he discovered the two Japanese spies, and the bonus was divided between the two. "What, there is such a good thing, what about my first mate?" Graham obviously has some understanding of de la Torre''s affairs, but after all, he is not his own person, so the benefit he got from the first mate is to lament the other party''s good luck. "Of course he was promoted to the same rank as you! His luck is really good. He has stayed in the rank of lieutenant for four years. He didn''t expect to be promoted to a rank within less than four months after following you." Hearing Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s words, Fang Lang also said with a smile on his face: "Haha. It''s all luck, luck. Hehe." (end of this chapter) Chapter 42: bad news Chapter 42 Bad News After the gossip was over, Graham finally brought the topic to serious business. After all, Fang Lang will soon become a major of the expeditionary force. Brazilian school-level officers are different from lieutenant-level officers. You can''t be promoted by giving gifts and money. You must have real credit. So there are many Brazilian lieutenants who remain lieutenants all their lives until they are discharged from the army. Of course, this does not mean that there is no chance at all, it mainly depends on whether you can send it to the right person! If you give it to the president, the commander-in-chief of the navy, army and air force, or the chief of staff, there must still be a chance. But many lieutenants have never had the chance to know these officers in their entire lives, let alone give gifts. No one else knows you. If you go directly to give gifts, it will be your fate if you don''t directly send you to a military court. "I came to you this time to discuss something with you. You will soon be a major, and you must be promoted in your position. We want you to be the captain of a destroyer, but now the Brazilian Navy''s own The warships are all old models and basically have no combat effectiveness, so I want to hear your thoughts." As soon as I heard that I was asked to be the captain of a destroyer, wouldnt that mean fighting the Germans, and there was no time to make a fortune! This is not acceptable. "However, it''s fine for me to sail a long distance, but it''s not enough to be able to sail a warship." Lieutenant Colonel Graham didn''t know Fang Lang''s inner thoughts, thinking that Fang Lang was just worried about his lack of personal ability to be qualified for this position. "Don''t worry about these, you won''t be allowed to drive the warship alone. We will definitely assign you enough professional manpower!" And Fang Lang is obviously not interested in this kind of combat position that wastes his time making money. If he really wants to change positions, Fang Lang wants a fat vacancy in the logistics department. "Well, I haven''t participated in naval battles, so it may not be suitable! I don''t know if there are other positions in your logistics department that are more suitable for me. I can work in the logistics department." Graham heard Fang Lang''s obvious evasion, and decisively rejected Fang Lang''s idea of ??coming to the logistics department. Just kidding that as the first officer of the logistics department, I only have the rank of lieutenant colonel. If you come here as a major, you will be your deputy directly, and you have the support of the Yankees behind you. Then I will be the boss of the fart! "There is no vacancy in the logistics department now. The command now wants you to be the captain of the naval destroyer. Because we are friends and you helped me solve the problem of loot transportation, so I want to communicate with you in advance. See See what you think!" Fang Lang finally heard some different meanings from Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s words. Now that the headquarters has decided to make himself the captain of the destroyer, what else needs to be communicated. I am a soldier, can I directly refuse to carry out the order? This is not too long a life. "But what''s the point of communication! If the headquarters wants to transfer me to be the captain of the destroyer, I can only carry out the order!" Hearing the meaning of breaking the jar in Fang Lang''s tone, Graham felt that his communication method was a bit tough in the past. After all, there is Brazil''s current father, Yankee, standing behind the person in front of him. It can only show that Lieutenant Colonel Graham has become accustomed to the way of handling things by himself. He may not have much confidence when dealing with outsiders, but when dealing with the internal situation of the Brazilian Army, Graham has always been a comparison. A strong officer, who made his background the commander-in-chief of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, Major General Morais, the Brazilian Marshal! But his attitude towards Fang Lang was actually different from the beginning, because he felt that Fang Lang stood behind Fang Lang''s American father. It''s not something he can offend easily, which made Fang Lang make a wrong judgment from the beginning, thinking that Lieutenant Colonel Graham was a very talkative officer, and even willing to make friends with him. Since General Morais also feels that there are Americans standing behind Fang Lang, and wants to use Fang Lang''s relationship to promote his idea of ??increasing the strength of the Brazilian Navy, then Graham obviously cannot offend the Asian with a deep background in front of him lad''s. "Uh! Maybe I didn''t say it clearly enough! The point now is that our Brazilian Navy''s equipment is all warships from World War I, and their combat effectiveness is relatively poor. It is relatively difficult to defend in Brazil''s coastal waters, let alone a naval battle with the Germans. And there is no vacancy for the captain candidate, so this time we want the US military to support us with a new destroyer!" Fang Lang felt that he had grasped some of their thoughts from Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s words, but he was not sure, so it could only be that his ability to express himself was not enough again, and he hoped to know more about this seemingly harmless man in front of him. The thoughts in the mind of the Minister of Logistics. "This is not good! As a novice, you mean to let me be the captain of this new warship. Would this be unfair to the old captains of our navy?" Graham answered all Fang Lang''s questions one by one. In short, it was a purpose to get Fang Lang to agree to become the captain of the destroyer. "You don''t need to consider whether it is fair or not. As for the novice, our Brazilian navy has never been in contact with new destroyers, so the Americans will definitely arrange personnel to train us." Fang Lang''s thoughts on the expeditionary force are not particularly clear. However, since he wants to keep his status as a Brazilian soldier, he has no way to refuse a reasonable transfer order from his superiors. "Oh! Alright then! I''ll obey orders!" Hearing Fang Lang''s direct acceptance of the appointment, Lieutenant Colonel Graham was a little unresponsive for a moment. Wasn''t it the person in front of him who just shied away in every possible way? But since he agreed to accept this appointment, the rest of the matter will be easy! "Ugh! Now there''s a question!" Fang Lang knew the question in his heart, and he was about to get the answer soon! Inadvertently puzzled: "What''s the problem!" Graham was a little awkward. After all, it took so long to get Fang Lang to agree to serve as the captain of the new destroyer. Now he wants to tell him that the warship needs him to figure out a solution. "The Americans take a wait-and-see attitude towards providing us with a new destroyer. As far as I know, you have a very good relationship with Commodore Jackson of the US Navy. I wonder if you can find a way for your own warship." After hearing Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s words, Fang Lang was not happy. What does this mean? You were the one who made me the captain, and you were the one who made the new destroyer hype. Now you tell me that the Americans haven''t agreed yet. , I asked myself to find the Americans for warships. You are kidding me! Is this my warship or a warship of the Brazilian Navy! Of course, Fang Lang definitely couldn''t refuse directly, but could only express it tactfully. "Ah! This is not good! My relationship with Commodore Jackson is not so good." Graham obviously didn''t believe Fang Lang''s nonsense, so he said directly: "If you don''t try it, how will you know if it will work! After all, this is your own warship!" Fang Lang would not be fooled, and shook his head again and again. "I can continue to be the captain of the Gilas. I will be responsible for the transportation while waiting for the results of your communication with the United States!" Seeing that Fang Lang was a little reticent, Graham became a little annoyed, and his words began to have a threatening tone. "Fang, if we were to completely negotiate, you, an inexperienced captain, would have no chance to be the captain." But Fang Lang didn''t expect to be the captain of a new destroyer at first, so what Graham said to Fang Lang was completely wrong. "That''s not right, I really don''t have the ability to be the captain of a destroyer! I think it''s good to continue to be my transport captain." Seeing that Fang Lang refused to accept the move, Lieutenant Colonel Graham could only block Fang Lang''s retreat. "The navy will not allow a lieutenant commander to serve as the captain of the transport ship. In addition, I heard that the captain of the Gilas has already been selected!" Finally, Fang Lang felt strong malice from Graham, which made Fang Lang feel uncomfortable, and his tone became stiff. "What! If the United States can''t provide us with destroyers, where will I be arranged!" Graham obviously didn''t feel Fang Lang''s emotional changes, and was still drawing a bigger pie for Fang Lang. "It''s hard to say. I heard the above mean that I hope you can use your relationship to obtain a new destroyer for you and the Brazilian Navy. Fang, as a friend, I think you should believe in your influence. If you If you can get the new destroyers needed by the Brazilian Navy from the Americans. Believe me, your position in the Navy will be unshakable." (end of this chapter) Chapter 43: angry Chapter 43 Angry Think about it, if I no longer serve as the captain of the Gilas, then the most likely person to be the captain should be the first mate de la Torre. Based on my relationship with de la Torre, if he is the captain, in fact It doesn''t have much influence, and it''s a good thing that if you get promoted, your subordinates will follow you. So Fang Lang tried his best to calm down and said: "It''s a pity that you guys overestimated my ability too much. I don''t know if De La Torre is the captain of the Gilas." Obviously, the Brazilian army does not look at ability now, and the background is much more important than ability. "As far as I know, Mr. de la Torre is not capable enough to be the captain." Fang Lang still did not give up and asked: "That''s another captain from the navy, right?" Considering, Fang Lang took the Gilas from the Americans after all. Moreover, General Morais also said that the captain of the transport ship Gilas should respect Fang Lang''s opinion. It''s a pity that Graham doesn''t think that Fang Lang''s opinion needs to be sought for this kind of thing. As a soldier, he will spend some time with you in order to let you go to the Americans to get a warship over. But taking away the Brazilian Navy''s own transport ship by yourself will not ask for the opinion of a captain. Just express your attitude clearly in the form of an order. "Okay! I don''t think there is any need to hide this matter from you, and you will know soon! The new captain of the Gilas will be Mr. Roberto Fendis, the second officer, Mr. de la Torre Will continue to serve as first mate, assisting Mr. Fendis." Hearing Lieutenant Colonel Graham''s words, Fang Lang was immediately laughed angrily. It turns out that the clown has always been me. Fang Lang, who thought he and Lieutenant Colonel Graham were friends, saw through Graham''s face and ugly eating at this moment. From the first time Fang Lang organized all the crew members of the Gilas to introduce themselves, Fang Lang already knew that Fendis, the person who was transferred from the logistics department to be the second officer, was obviously Lieutenant Colonel Graham. Fang Lang only thought that the other party was here to monitor him, but he didn''t expect that it was someone who was waiting to pick peaches. Now that he has seen it through, Fang Lang doesn''t want to continue to entangle Graham too much, so he directly opens his mouth to see off the guests. "Then I understand! Mr. Graham Lieutenant Colonel, I will seriously consider your suggestion. It is very late today, so I will go back to rest first! Good night!" Seeing that he did not achieve his goal, and might have turned against Fang Lang, Lieutenant Colonel Graham was a little annoyed. I want to continue chatting with Fang Lang. An English question came from beside him, interrupting Graham''s thoughts. "Which one is Fang Lang, Lieutenant Fang!" This made Lieutenant Colonel Graham even more annoyed, couldn''t he see that he was communicating with Fang Lang! It was so impolite that he was about to turn around and scold him, but when he saw that it was a major of the US military, he quickly suppressed his unhappiness, pointed at Fang Lang and said: "Mr. Major, hello! This is Fang Lang, but he is no longer a lieutenant, he is now a captain." The American major shrugged and looked at Fang Lang and said, "I''m sorry, please don''t mind. I am Jack from the US Navy Logistics Department, and I was ordered to take you to see Commodore Jackson." This was a timely rain for Fang Lang, who wanted to stay away from the entanglement of Lieutenant Colonel Graham. Fang Lang said quickly: "Hello, I''m Fang Lang, and I''ll go with you now." After finishing speaking, he did not say goodbye to Lieutenant Colonel Graham beside him, and left directly with the major of the US military. It made Graham feel bad for a while, and he was still thinking about it, and said that he was not familiar with the Americans, and the relationship was not close enough, so what''s going on now, someone came to pick you up just after you came back. Isn''t this going to the grave and burning the newspaper - a fool! Speechless all the way, Fang Lang was sent directly to a heavily guarded residential area by the Willis jeep of the US military major. It seems that this time it was a relatively private meeting, and Fang Lang felt more relaxed when we no longer met in the office. After pushing the door and entering, I saw Brigadier General Jackson in pajamas, sitting on the sofa by the fireplace, holding a cigar in his hand, puffing, and seeing Fang Lang coming in, he didn''t get up, but directly Pointing to the sofa next to him, he said: "Come on, come and sit here!" This kind of environment where the distance between two people can be easily shortened, of course Fang Lang would not foolishly come to the army. He also casually looked at the environment of the house and said: "Uncle, your house is really nice. It belongs to you, or to the army!" Brigadier General Jackson looked at it, and Fang Lang''s attitude also smiled slightly. "Of course it belongs to the army. Why should I buy a house in Italy! Why do you want to buy a house to hide your beauty in a golden house!" Fang Lang really likes the location and structure of this house very much, and he must own his own property in Italy in the future. "Hey. Uncle Jackson still understands me! I really have this idea. The war will end. It''s good to buy a property in such a beautiful place and come here for a vacation!" Regarding Fang Lang''s idea of ??buying real estate, Brigadier General Jackson also understood what was going on, and couldn''t help but joked: "Your vacation is fake, but it''s true to arrange a little girl. Don''t tell me, you took down the most beautiful little nurse in our naval hospital!" This relaxed atmosphere made Fang Lang very relaxed. After thinking about it, since Brigadier General Jackson lives here, it means that he also likes it very much. Why don''t you give him a property yourself? Wouldn''t it be better for the two of them to be neighbors to bring them closer together? relationship! "Hehe. That is, with my handsome and unrestrained appearance, I must win the most beautiful flowers! I wonder if the house here can be purchased now? I will buy two houses and leave one for my uncle when the war is over. Uncle can bring Auntie over to see what Uncle has done for her!" Unexpectedly, Fang Lang would be so bold as to want to buy a property for himself. Although he does not lack these things, his intentions are still very satisfying. It is not in vain to recommend him. "It seems that you kid has made a lot of money recently!" Hearing that Brigadier General Jackson did not explicitly refuse, Fang Lang understood what he should do. He was never afraid of losing money for himself, he was afraid when he was afraid, and when he gave something to others, no one else wanted it. "This is all under your care, uncle, I don''t have the ability to rely on myself!" Seeing that Fang Lang was smart enough not to continue entangled in the real estate issue, Brigadier General Jackson smiled slightly and said: "You have to transfer your ability to do business to the military. Otherwise, wouldn''t such a smart mind be wasted?" Commodore Jackson''s words made Fang Lang''s heart move. It seems that Jackson''s initiative to see himself today has something to do with the idea of ??the Brazilian Navy! Taking advantage of the opportunity, he told the news of his promotion. "Oh! Uncle, don''t underestimate me! I am now a captain! And there is news that tomorrow the expeditionary force headquarters will award me the rank of major again!" Originally, Jackson was still considering that Fang Lang''s military rank was not enough, and it was not easy to support him. Unexpectedly, he suddenly told himself that he would soon be a major! Is it so easy to get promoted in the Brazilian army? "What''s going on, weren''t you just a lieutenant before you returned to Brazil? Why are you going to be promoted two ranks so soon!" Fang Lang didn''t hide anything, and gave a general explanation of what happened to Brigadier General Jackson. "Hi! This is also thanks to my uncle. I accidentally caught two Japanese spies when I returned to Brazil. I heard that this was the first espionage case solved after the country joined the war! Therefore, the country attaches great importance to it, and specially sent a telegram to reward it. Raise my rank to major!" Brigadier General Jackson was very surprised to hear that Fang Lang had caught a Japanese spy. "Do you still have the ability to catch spies?" Looking at Brigadier General Jackson''s shocked expression, Fang Lang was a little embarrassed. He seemed to be acting too forcefully, and quickly explained: "I was lucky. I saw two wanted spies'' warrants, and I happened to bump into one of them, and I recognized it at a glance! Such a good thing that came to my door! I am also very helpless!" Fang Lang''s words made Brigadier General Jackson a little dumbfounded, and you are still helpless. Fang Lang nodded with a finger holding a cigar and said: "You kid, this is a good deal for you!" As soon as he heard that Brigadier General Jackson said that he had gotten a good deal, he immediately vomited out the grievance he had just suffered at Graham. "Uncle, you are wrong. This is really not a cheap thing. The military rank has been promoted, but then there is a job change! The transport ship you assigned to me will be snatched away by these dog days ! I''m so angry!" The expression of a child after being wronged made Jackson laugh out loud: "Haha. You boy, I didn''t give you this transport ship. It was allocated by the US Navy to the Brazilian Navy. It has nothing to do with me." (end of this chapter) Chapter 44: stand in line Chapter 44 Standing in line Fang Lang knew that Brigadier General Jackson must have expected it long ago, but he also happened to take this opportunity to show his attitude to Jackson, abruptly turning the exchange of interests between countries into a personal friendship between the two. After all, Fang Lang is very aware of the influence of the Americans in Brazil in the future, especially the influence of the Brazilian army. "I don''t care about it. You handed it over to me at the time, and I handed it over to the expeditionary navy. In my heart, this is what you handed over to me. Unfortunately, I have no ability now, so I can only watch my own The boat was taken by this bastard." Brigadier General Jackson is an old man, so he naturally understands what Fang Lang means, and he can also hear Fang Lang''s dissatisfaction with the Brazilian Navy. He smiled and said: "Then how is the Brazilian Navy planning to accommodate you?" Fang Lang saw the smile on Brigadier General Jackson''s face, and thought that Jackson already knew that the expeditionary force was going to let him do the job of destroyer captain. "Surely you already know that, right?" Seeing Fang Lang looking at him with determination, Commodore Jackson instantly understood what the Brazilian Navy meant. These **** are really horrible. "How could I know about your Brazilian Navy, but since you said that, I probably understand what you mean! Is it because the Expeditionary Force recently asked us to support a destroyer?" Since Commodore Jackson said that he did not expect that the new position given to him by the Brazilian Navy was the captain of this destroyer, Fang Lang also told the news he had heard. "Yeah! They said they wanted me to be the captain of a new destroyer, but now there is no sign of a warship. Are you kidding me? I think I have a good relationship with you, and I want you to come forward to facilitate the delivery of the warship as soon as possible." . Brigadier General Jackson heard Fang Lang say that the expeditionary navy wanted Fang Lang to come to him to facilitate the delivery of the American destroyer, and smiled and said: "Oh! So what do you think?" Fang Lang made no secret of his dissatisfaction in front of Brigadier General Jackson, and expressed strong indignation at the expeditionary navy''s use of himself. "Do you think I''m stupid! Don''t tell me if I have such a big face with you. Even if you gave me face and contributed to this matter, they will transfer me away again and replace me directly with theirs as the captain. , Am I that stupid! I can see through these bastards!" The practice of the Expeditionary Army Navy killing the donkey obviously made Fang Lang very dissatisfied, and even felt that he might become the transportation captain of the Expeditionary Army in the future, but he would not get any actual benefits. Brigadier General Jackson didn''t expect Fang Lang to be able to see through the thoughts of the expeditionary navy so quickly at a young age, and Fang Lang couldn''t help but treat Fang Lang differently: "Unexpectedly, you boy, you are not old, but your mind is not bad!" Seeing that Brigadier General Jackson agreed with his judgment, Fang Lang felt happy, but I have something to say, even if I ask you to help facilitate the delivery of the destroyer, let alone my own idea, this is the expeditionary navy Those people want to use you, not me. But he opened his mouth and said: "Seeing what you said, it''s your nephew anyway. Isn''t it embarrassing for you if you have a bad mind!" How could the little Jiujiu in Fang Lang''s heart be hidden from Brigadier General Jackson, but this is also the main purpose of Jackson''s coming to Fang Lang today, so he stopped making detours and directly asked the question: "Since you treat me as an uncle, I will not hide some things from you. It is a small problem to provide you with a destroyer, but you have to understand that once you become the captain of this destroyer, it means that in the Brazilian army Here, you will be labeled as a pro-American faction, which is not necessarily a good thing for you!" Pro-American faction, Fang Lang understood what Jackson meant as soon as the word appeared. I am an ironclad pro-China faction, but unfortunately you Americans are the strongest now, and when the expeditionary force returned to China, they were all pro-American factions. Get a higher position soon, and you will be able to get a better position when you return to Brazil in the future. At that time, it would not be better to have a pro-American cloak to cover up one''s pro-China identity, so he said carelessly: "Haha. Uncle Jackson, look at what you said. I am a pro-American faction! Do I need to label it again? Even if I say that I am not a pro-American faction, will anyone in the Brazilian army believe it?" It is true that Brazil has not completely turned to the United States at this time, because President Vargas is very aware of the United States'' ambitions for the Americas. Unfortunately, Vargas will not last long. With the achievements of the United States in World War II, it will make The United States has a strong influence over most countries in the world after the war. The United States will never allow Brazil, a major American country, to become a sharp knife inserted by the Soviet Union in the Americas. So when the Americans discovered that Brazilian President Vargas was not completely on their side, they began to plan ahead. Supporting the pro-American faction in the military is the most effective means for the United States. When these soldiers of the Brazilian Expeditionary Army came into contact with the so-called ideas of democracy and freedom in Europe, and returned to China, they would definitely be dissatisfied with the actions of some domestic politicians, which directly led to the subsequent coups in the Brazilian army. . So Brigadier General Jackson really regarded Fang Lang as his nephew, and revealed some high-level situations in Brazil to Fang Lang: "You guys have to understand that the current Brazilian President Vargas doesn''t like the pro-American faction very much. Although he is now cooperating with us in the United States, he has just established the Labor Party in Brazil! The interests of this party are not the same as those of the United States. values ??are inconsistent." It''s a pity that Fang Lang, as a traveler, knows very well that the Americans will win in the end. Of course he will not take detours, but directly said: "So what! I''m just a small officer. If he doesn''t like me, am I pro-American? Wouldn''t I be crushed to death like an ant?" Fang Lang''s answer made Jackson happy. He was happy that he had completed the task of Lieutenant General Chambers, and that Fang Lang had made a correct choice. So he said to Fang Lang with a smile on his face: "Okay! Since you have chosen to make yourself a firm pro-American faction, come to my office tomorrow afternoon and I will take you to meet someone." Hearing that Brigadier General Jackson was going to take him to meet someone, Fang Lang was taken aback for a moment. Can''t you, a Brigadier General, finish communicating these things? But think about it, maybe he will introduce himself to a higher-level leader of the US Navy. Of course, Fang Lang will not refuse a good opportunity to expand his network. Pretending to be surprised: "Who are you? Uncle, you don''t really want to help me with the destroyer! But I don''t want to be the captain of the destroyer! I still have a lot of business to do! If I go to fight, my business How to do?" Seeing that Fang Lang was still thinking about his own business at this time, he couldn''t help feeling anxious. Climb to a higher position. In a place like the Brazilian army, isn''t it easy to get rich with the support of the Americans? But think about it, his business can also bring benefits to him, and he has to open his mouth to solve his worries. "You boy, with me here, are you still worried that your transport fleet will be left unattended? Don''t worry! I know your father-in-law Kerns, and I have already told him that no matter where your ships are going in the future , I will arrange an **** fleet for you all the way! You can rest assured that you can develop in the army." In fact, Fang Lang is really unwilling to drive a naval warship and fight the Germans. If he is fighting a small Japan, it is absolutely fine. He has to fire two shots on a transport ship, but it is really nothing to fight the Germans. interest. "But I don''t know how to fight in the navy! I don''t know if there are any other ships that don''t need naval warfare that I can use. It would be good to transport soldiers like amphibious landing ships, or transport nurses by medical ships!" Fang Lang''s words overwhelmed Brigadier Jackson. I don''t know if he is afraid of death or for some reason, let''s say he is afraid of death! He fought bravely in the army and saved John''s life under enemy fire. Say he is not afraid of death! When he arrived in the navy, he didn''t want to drive a warship to fight. But Commodore Jackson managed to find a pro-American naval officer. If he wanted to support him, he would not let him go to a non-combat position, so he directly refused: "No, you can learn it! Are you born to be able to drive a ship? Now that you have mastered the skills of driving a ship, I believe it will be easy for you to learn to drive a destroyer. As for the amphibious landing ship you mentioned, now The landing has already been completed. Where are you going? Do you want to take care of the elderly? Dont even think about the hospital ship. Even if we give it to you, you Brazilian expeditionary force may not want it. Okay, dont talk to me anymore, its getting late Now, you go back! I''m going to sleep. See you tomorrow!" Looking at Brigadier General Jackson who directly issued the order to evict passengers, Fang Lang was helpless. It seemed that he could not escape the fate of the destroyer. I couldn''t help thinking in my heart, destroyers are destroyers, but this time they must all be their own people, and they must all be their own people in the future. Don''t want to let yourself be the captain of the transportation team for you Brazilian bureaucrats. (end of this chapter) Chapter 45: lieutenant commander Chapter 45 Lieutenant Commander In the early morning of the next day, Italy in March was still ruled by the cold winter. Fang Lang and his first mate de la Torre drove a Willis jeep early and arrived at the headquarters of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. The headquarters was heavily guarded, and the two were arranged together Wait in the reception room. Della Torre saw the captain''s rank on Fang Lang''s collar badge, and congratulated him from the bottom of his heart: "Sir, congratulations, I didn''t expect you to be a captain so soon." Seeing de la Torre''s envious expression, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Old Lei, don''t be envious, you will become a captain later!" "What, sir, are you serious? You know what we are here this time, right?" Fang Lang''s words made de la Torre very happy. He knew that his young officer had a wide network among the Brazilian Expeditionary Force and the U.S. Army, so it was not surprising that he could receive the notice in advance. "Don''t be too happy too early, this time is not necessarily a good thing for us!" Seeing the uncontrollable excitement on de la Torre''s face, Fang Lang couldn''t help shaking his head, and poured a basin of cold water. "Sir, what''s wrong!" Fang Lang didn''t want to affect his good mood, he thought for a while and didn''t say anything, just shook his head and didn''t say anything more. His attitude baffled de la Torre. But since Fang Lang didn''t explain, it''s not easy for him to ask, he can only control his excited heart a little bit, trembling hands, and wait quietly! Soon a soldier came over and informed the two to go to the conference room to attend the awarding meeting, which would be presided over by the expeditionary force commander, General Morais himself. Della Torre heard that General Morais would personally preside over the awarding of the title. He just calmed down and became excited again. After all, this is the Brazilian Marshal, and not everyone has the opportunity to see it. At the same time, there were also five officers who participated in the award. It can be seen from the armbands of the clothing that some of them are from the army and the air force. Only Fang Lang and de la Torre are from the navy. Looking at the excited expressions on everyone''s faces, Fang Lang felt a little bored. It wasn''t that he wasn''t thrilled to be awarded the rank of major, it was just that the thought of being used to steal warships from the United States made him uncomfortable. Apparently he hasn''t realized that being able to be used also means that he has the value of being used. There are still many people who want to be used, but no one wants to use him! However, Fang Lang also understands that he does not have enough strength now. As long as he has the strength to protect himself in the Brazilian army, no one will dare to use him like this now. The possibility of everyone begging him in the future will be even greater big. The awarding ceremony during the war was grand and concise, and did not waste much time. The top leaders of the Brazilian Expeditionary Army, Navy, Army and Air Force were all present, and the navy was in the most embarrassing position. Because the reason for the award of the army and air force is because of heroic fighting and outstanding achievements. That is, military merit awards. Only the two navies, Fang Lang and De la Torre, turned out to be because they caught two Japanese spies in Brazil. This made Fang Lang feel very embarrassed for a while! After all, in Fang Lang''s mind, as a soldier, meritorious service awards should also come from military exploits, not other things. If he is an agent of the Military Intelligence Bureau, it is a matter of course that he will be awarded for capturing two spies. But his own navy was awarded the rank of major for catching spies, which seemed nondescript. Therefore, Fang Lang basically had a serious face throughout the awarding ceremony, and was not as elated as other comrades in arms. Although Fang Lang always had a serious face, he wanted to quickly escape from this awarding ceremony. Unfortunately, things backfired. At the end of the meeting, Colonel Parisi of the Navy stopped Fang Lang and took him to a large office to sit down without saying anything to him. The two waited quietly for a short while, when General Morais strode in, and the two stood up quickly. "Your Excellency, good morning!" General Morais walked behind the desk without stopping, pointed to the two people''s original seats and said: "Sit down, both of you! This time I called the two of you here, mainly because I want to talk to you about how to build personnel, how to conduct training, and how to rely on this warship in the later stage after receiving a new destroyer from the US Navy. Develop our own new navy. I would like to hear the opinions of the two of you first. Fang Lang noticed that Colonel Parisi was obviously taken aback, apparently not receiving news that the Brazilian Navy would receive a destroyer from the US Navy. This situation obviously made Fang Lang''s heart start to have some meaning. It seems that Colonel Parisi is not a confidant of General Morais! Lieutenant Colonel Graham knew everything, but Colonel Parisi, the titular head of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force Navy, knew nothing about it. This had to make Fang Lang cautious. It seems that the Brazilian Expeditionary Force is not as simple as it looks on the surface, and there are many factions inside! However, Fang Lang also had a rough guess in his mind that General Morais, as the commander of the expeditionary force, must represent the interests of one side, and Colonel Parisi obviously belonged to President Vargas. Unexpectedly, the Brazilian Expeditionary Force that President Vargas had finally formed was not of one mind with him. It is no wonder that he was ousted by the military coup. These are obviously all asked by Vargas himself. As a dictatorial leader, he actually believed in his own political influence, tried to promote democratic politics in Brazil, and even formed his own political party and put down military power. Obviously, he has never seriously studied the theory that political power grows out of the barrel of a great man''s gun. Parisi didn''t look at Fang Lang. He knew that Fang Lang had Americans as his backstage, and he might have known the news. But how can I comment on something I don''t know at all! But the general asked questions, and he couldn''t be silent, so he began to express his opinions on how to build a team of personnel he knew best. This new type of destroyer, if you don''t arrange your own people to go up, it will be too unreasonable. And General Morais also said that we will rely on this warship to develop our own new navy. If this warship does not have its own personnel, wouldn''t the Brazilian Navy have nothing to do with him in the future. So Colonel Parisi began to recommend suitable candidates for various positions on the destroyer, and General Morais did not express any objection, but after he finished speaking, he looked at Fang Lang and said: "Major Fang, as the incoming captain of a new destroyer, what do you think?" General Morais'' words made Colonel Parisi''s expression froze again, and he turned to look at Fang Lang with a serious face. It never occurred to me that I wrote here and talked for a long time, recommending candidates for various positions. It turns out that the real candidates have already been decided. I couldn''t help being embarrassed for a while, I didn''t expect to make such a big embarrassment in front of my subordinates. It seems that my days in the Brazilian Expeditionary Force will become more and more difficult! At this time, he also saw that the reason why General Morais left him with Fang Lang was to plant a thorn between him and Fang Lang. And after he was sold, he foolishly helped count the money. Fang Lang didn''t know what to say about the situation in front of him. After all, he didn''t have much experience in participating in this kind of political struggle. But he knew in his heart that no matter how much he said now, it was useless. Even General Morais could not decide everything. It was the Americans who could really make decisions. Whether it is staffing or training, it must be assessed by the Americans. If the Americans say that you fail the assessment and are not suitable for this position, then no matter how good your performance is, it will be useless. vice versa. So Fang Lang said directly: "Your Excellency, the subordinates have no experience in this, and follow your instructions!" Hearing that Fang Lang didn''t express his opinion, General Morais was taken aback. Did this kid not understand what he meant! He spoke again to confirm: "Oh! Don''t you have any requirements for personnel?" Fang Lang heard what General Morais said, and apparently told himself that he could arrange some of his own people to enter the new destroyer. This made Fang Lang''s heart alive again. After all, there are 300 to 400 crew members on a destroyer. If there is no one of its own, it is easy to be excluded, which is definitely not the case. Hastily said: "If I am the captain, I hope to be able to select some suitable personnel on my original transport ship." After hearing this, General Morais nodded and said: "Yes, then implement it according to your ideas! You can discuss the specific candidates with Colonel Parisi. I hope to see our new destroyers form combat effectiveness as soon as possible." After finishing speaking, he signaled the two of them to leave. When Fang Lang walked out of the general''s office in a daze, he was still in a daze. He didn''t say anything clearly about the situation! A topic was thrown out, and it ended without explaining it clearly, and it was still implemented according to my idea. How can she do this? I didnt seem to agree to Lieutenant Colonel Graham being the captain of the new destroyer yesterday! Now it''s time to be confused, the captain of the new destroyer. (end of this chapter) Chapter 46: open and honest Chapter 46 Open and honest Fang Lang stayed in General Morais'' office for less than ten minutes, and when he came out, he not only became the captain of a new destroyer himself. It may also have caused some estrangement with Colonel Parisi by the way. I have no foundation in the navy. Now it is obvious that General Morais belongs to the largest faction in the military. I am obviously being used by them. If I dont want to be used by them, I obviously cant follow them completely, otherwise it will be easy. will be emptied. So, Fang Lang couldn''t help but look at Colonel Parisi beside him. No matter what happens to Colonel Parisi in the future, at least, he is still the top leader of the Brazilian Expeditionary Navy. And Colonel Parisi did not show any hostility towards him, and he could form a certain tacit understanding with him. "Sir, what''s the situation, am I the captain of a new destroyer?" Fang Lang''s words made Colonel Parisi look at him in a daze. Seeing that the expression on Fang Lang''s face did not seem to be pretending, he couldn''t help but wondered, "Didn''t you know the news in advance?" "Lieutenant Colonel Graham talked to me last night, hoping that I can come forward to fight for a new destroyer from the US Navy. If I succeed, I will be the captain, but I did not agree! What is the situation today!" Fang Lang felt that there was nothing to hide about this matter, and he believed that even if he didn''t tell it, it would be known to everyone soon, so he said it very frankly. Hearing Fang Lang''s answer, Colonel Parisi couldn''t help but fell into deep thought, and thought for a while and said: "The current situation is that General Morais agrees to let you select personnel to build this new destroyer. And you have actually I agreed to serve as the captain of this destroyer. So the matter of the destroyer is now your own business." Colonel Parisi''s words stunned Fang Lang, and this became his own business? Damn, with this kind of coquettish operation, it''s no wonder that he can become the commander of the expeditionary army. This trick of fooling people is really hard to guard against! "So, now I can''t do it, can I?" Looking at Fang Lang''s blank expression, Colonel Parisi finally smiled: "You boy, don''t be born without knowing your blessings. As a senior naval officer, let me remind you that what General Morais said about using your destroyer to develop our new navy is definitely not a joke. Yes. The Brazilian navy is already in a corner. The warships are all old equipment from World War I. Can a navy that doesnt even have radar be called a navy? Look at the main force of naval battles now, all of which are aircraft carriers, and our Brazilian navy even has aircraft carriers. I haven''t even touched the edge. Tell me how you will gain a foothold in the world in the future." Patted Fang Lang on the shoulder, and pointed to the jeep drive outside: "Walk and talk!" Fang Lang had nothing to do, he waved his hand to de la Torre in the distance, and motioned for him to follow Mr. Colonel''s car. Colonel Parisi said: "Tell your first mate to take my car, you drive, and we two will have a chat alone." Understand that Colonel Parisi wants to talk to himself alone without the presence of others. So exclude his driver as well. Fang Lang and Colonel Parisi walked to their car again, let de la Torre sit in the colonel''s car, took the colonel with him, and started driving to the naval base. Colonel Parisi sat in the car, tightened his windbreaker, looked at the beautiful scenery of Italy and said: "Winter in Italy is really cold! It''s still warm in Brazil." Fang Lang doesn''t know if he meant anything else, but what he said is indeed true. Brazil''s latitude is relatively low, and most parts of the country are in the tropics. Many people have never seen snow in their lives, so it is natural to feel that Italy is cold. "Yeah! Brazil is much warmer." "Fang, I believe you can also see that I am not popular in the Brazilian Expeditionary Force now. Do you know why?" Colonel Parisi went straight to the point this time and did not hide it. He did not play charades like before. communicate. It''s a pity that Fang Lang didn''t know how to answer this question, after all, this is his immediate boss. Colonel Parisi didn''t really wait for Fang Lang to answer, but said to himself: "I am a fellow countryman of President Vargas, who belongs to President Vargas. Because of some domestic political issues, President Vargas is gradually losing the trust of the army. It is still in a state of war. People like me , nothing will happen, it should just be marginalized slowly. So, dont be surprised. Fang Lang was a little surprised at Parisi''s frankness. He didn''t expect that Colonel Parisi would suddenly say this to himself, and it sounded a bit confiding, which made Fang Lang very uncomfortable. "Now that General Morais has chosen to make you the captain of the new destroyer of the Expeditionary Navy, no matter what the reason is, I think you should seize this opportunity. The reason why you didn''t agree to become the captain of the destroyer yesterday should be because of feeling You have been used!" Colonel Parisi''s words surprised Fang Lang. He didn''t expect Parisi to be able to see through his mind so easily. Since others were so open and honest, he didn''t feel bad for Colonel Parisi. Besides, there are many friends and many paths, and I don''t belong to that faction now. Anyone with a discerning eye should be able to see my own thoughts, so after thinking about it, I felt that there was nothing to hide, so I nodded and said, "I do have a feeling of being used in my heart. After all, my relationship with Commodore Jackson It''s just a personal relationship, and if I use it now to advance the plans of the Brazilian Navy, it may hurt my friendship with Commodore Jackson." Fang Lang''s words made Colonel Parisi smile slightly, took a serious look at Fang Lang''s young face and said, "You are indeed young and a little naive. How do you know that the Americans are not using you?" Yup! Isn''t my current situation the pro-American faction that the United States wants to support? I am also being used by the Americans! Since both sides are using me, what else do I have to worry about, am I stupid if I don''t come to both sides to expand my own interests at this time. Americans don''t take advantage of it, what are you thinking! These equipments are not owned by Brigadier General Jackson, they are paid by American taxpayers, and my company in the United States also pays taxes! Isn''t it natural for me to recover a little interest? Seeing Fang Lang''s suddenly realized expression, Parisi smiled even happier. "Your current role is very delicate. Everyone wants to find a little balance through you. Therefore, you are very important to both parties. This is the best time for you to grab benefits. So this destroyer is a Seeds, whether they can grow or not depends on your own ability." Fang Lang is obviously not a stupid person. Colonel Parisi''s words almost pointed out the direction of development for Fang Lang. "I understand, thank you for your teaching, sir! Fang Lang will never forget your kindness!" Colonel Parisi smiled and shook his head and said: "I didn''t tell you this for no reason. Since you are the future hope of the Brazilian Navy, and I am about to retire from the stage of history. I have some friends who are still serving in the Navy. I hope you can take care of them a little bit in the future." Fang Lang understood what Colonel Parisi meant in seconds, and he really needed to cultivate some of his own power now. Looking at the current situation, some people around Colonel Parisi could obviously try to absorb it. It''s just that you have to choose carefully. Ability is very important, but whether you will be loyal to yourself is more important. "Of course no problem, you can give me their list, and I will include them in the crew list of the new destroyer for inspection." Mr. Colonel smiled and stretched out his right hand, Fang Lang also pulled out his right hand, and the two of them held my hands tightly together, which was a preliminary agreement. "Then how are you going to arrange it yourself?" Fang Lang looked at Colonel Parisi with a calm face beside him and said. "I will stick to you until the end of the war to avoid extra problems. After the war, I will retire directly and return to my hometown to buy a large farm and enjoy the rest of my life." Fang Lang didn''t expect Colonel Parisi to say that he would persevere until the end of the war for himself. Doesn''t that mean, waiting for him to take his post? There are only less than two months left in the war. How can I become a captain of the navy in such a short time at such a young age? I dare not take this seriously. But when Colonel Parisi said that he was going home to buy a farm, Fang Lang''s heart moved. "Mr. Colonel''s home is Rio Grande do Sul, right?" "Yes, Porto Alegre, what, are you interested in visiting my hometown?" Colonel Parisi is not surprised that Fang Lang knows where his hometown is. After all, he just said that he and Mr. President are from the same hometown, and Mr. President''s home is in Rio Grande do Sul. (end of this chapter) Chapter 47: New position confirmed Chapter 47 New Position Confirmation Rio Grande do Sul is the southernmost state in Brazil. It is the most important agricultural and pastoral area in later generations of Brazil. Its food production accounts for about half of Brazil. , a rare low-altitude area, very livable. The current residents of Rio Grande do Sul are mostly descendants of German and Italian immigrants. Compared with the central coastal area, the population is even sparser. It is Fang Lang''s first choice for resettling Chinese. "I don''t know if the land price in Rio Grande do Sul is high?" "What? Fang, do you also want to live in my hometown? You are very welcome, my friend. The land price in my hometown is very cheap, and there is still a lot of land that has not been cultivated, because the population has always restricted our development. important reason." Speaking of his hometown of Rio Grande do Sul, Colonel Parisi felt very proud, and warmly invited Fang Lang to settle in his hometown. "There are many people in my hometown who want to immigrate to Brazil and settle down. If possible, I would recommend Rio Grande do Sul to them. I also want to own a property there. After all, Sao Paulo is still too hot. Already!" "Really? Fang, my younger brother works at the Rio Grande do Sul Immigration Bureau. If you need help, please tell me directly. Don''t be polite." Fang Lang didn''t expect to have such a harvest today. If Parisi really retired after the war and returned to his hometown, maybe he could settle many Chinese immigrants through him. Of course, this is still an idle move. After all, the Japanese have not yet surrendered, and there is no way to take the people of the motherland out of the Japanese-occupied area. In this way, the two chatted about the scenery and culture of Rio Grande do Sul, as if the previous deal did not exist at all. Soon back to the naval base. Since it is inevitable that he will serve as the captain of the destroyer, Fang Lang must start preparing in advance. First of all, he found his first mate de la Torre. Since he is still unable to serve as the captain of the Gilas even though he has been promoted to the rank of captain, it is better to let him return to his old profession, the first officer of the destroyer. After receiving the invitation from Fang Lang, de la Torre agreed without any hesitation. Jean told him that he was going to serve as the first mate to the current second mate Roberto Fendis in the future, but he didn''t have time to say it. In fact, de la Torre''s idea is very simple. I am a first officer with no background and no money. In the Brazilian Navy, there is basically no hope of promotion. It is rare to meet a good superior who thinks highly of me. The key is a visible thick thigh. , how can we not hold on tighter! Considering that de la Torre has many years of service experience in the Brazilian Navy and knows many people, Fang Lang gave de la Torre another task, asking him to report what he thought was real, and because he had no background and no background For various reasons such as money, the naval officers and soldiers who have not been promoted make a list for their own inspection. After lunch, Fang Lang came to Brigadier General Jackson''s office early. Led by Brigadier General Jackson, the office of Lieutenant General Chambers was rang. "Your Excellency, this is what I told you, Major Fang Lang of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force! Major Fang, this is Lieutenant General Amuro Chambers, commander of the US Fourth Fleet." Brigadier General Jackson first introduced the two to each other. "Your Excellency, General, Lieutenant Commander Fang Lang of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, I am reporting to you. It is an honor to meet you!" Fang Lang stood at attention and saluted. Looking at Fang Lang''s military salute, Lieutenant General Chambers nodded slightly. Not to mention Fang Lang''s ability, at least his military appearance is very satisfactory. "Major Fang, hello! Such a young major officer is really young and promising!" Lieutenant General Chambers was still very surprised by Fang Lang''s youth. After all, he has no hair on his mouth, and he can''t do things firmly. He is so young and has not participated in professional studies. "Your Excellency, this is all thanks to Mr. Brigadier General and your promotion!" Fang Lang did not hesitate to give the credit for becoming a major at such a young age to the American general, and told him clearly that the reason why he was able to become a major officer was because the Americans stood behind him. As for one''s own personal ability, it is useless to just talk about it. It is more useful than talking about it when you get your grades. "Your Excellency, General, don''t be fooled by his youth. This is a little fox, and his business is very prosperous. He has a flexible mind and is experienced in handling things." Commodore Jackson was obviously worried about Lieutenant Admiral Chambers and looked down on Fang Lang, a young lieutenant commander. Hastily praised beside him. Lieutenant General Chambers glanced at Brigadier General Jackson meaningfully, and said to the noncommittal: "Major Fang Lang, what do you think of the relationship between Brazil and the United States!" I didn''t expect such a big topic to be raised in Chambers. Shouldn''t this be discussed with Mr. President? Ask yourself if a tiny lieutenant commander is out of place. Besides, don''t you have any clues about the relationship between Brazil and the United States? You Yankees treat the whole of Latin America as your own back garden. When you need it, you feed a little aid. When you dont need it, you throw it aside to fend for yourself. If other forces intervene, you will start to stir up trouble again. rain. The economy of the entire Latin American country is unable to develop, coups continue, gangsters are rampant, and drugs are rampant. Isn''t this all because of your intention? Think about it. After the victory of World War II, the United States set its sights on the revival of Europe and the Cold War, and did not take much care of Brazils development. When Brazil began to move closer to the Soviet Union, the United States began to interfere again, causing Brazils domestic political chaos. , it is difficult to develop at all. However, Fang Lang will definitely not tell the face of the United States that he has seen through. After all, the influence of the United States on Brazil is too great. If he shows it, he will probably die young soon. I want to take advantage of the fact that the United States is now in need of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. The truth is to accumulate more capital and dig more benefits. "I think the United States and Brazil should be loyal allies, and Brazil should become a loyal follower of the United States. After all, we represent the interests of the entire America. No matter what aspect Brazil should stand firmly on the same side as the United States . With insincere words in his mouth, the expression on his face was impassioned. Fang Lang couldn''t help thinking, how could I become so shameless? Could it be that talking nonsense with my eyes open is my talent. This skill tree seems a little crooked! Lieutenant General Chambers and Brigadier General Jackson''s eyes lit up when they heard what Fang Lang said. Isn''t this the little licking dog we need? The young man has a future, vision, and ideas, and deserves our support. "You are indeed a visionary young man with great ideas. I admire you very much. I heard that you are also the savior of General Clark''s son. You are indeed a good friend of our Americans." Lieutenant General Chambers is all smiles, and he likes the term "loyal follower" very much. He felt that this term should be included in the report to the White House. "Thank you, General, for your compliment. I still have a lot to learn and grow, and I hope to be taught and helped by Your Excellency, General." Fang sycophant Lang came online, with a serious expression and humble words, which made Lieutenant Chambers feel very comfortable in the shoot. Is there any reason for such a friend not to support him? Besides, Fang Lang''s label in the Brazilian army is that he has an American background. Even if he said no, no one would believe it! Therefore, it is absolutely in the interests of the United States to support such pro-American factions. "I heard that the Brazilian Expeditionary Force wants us to support a destroyer this time. You will be the captain, right?" "Yes, Your Excellency General. I am very honored to be able to drive the American destroyer to fight with the United States. Victory will definitely belong to us!" Commodore Jackson looked at Fang Lang a little stunned. Is this the same guy who didn''t want to be the captain of the destroyer yesterday? Could it be that after one night, someone changed! Fortunately, it is in the interest of the United States to have Fang Lang as the captain of the destroyer, and with the relationship between Jackson and Fang Lang, he will not jump out to tear down Fang Lang''s platform at this time. "Very well, Fang, thank you for coming, I believe you will soon become the captain of the most advanced destroyer in Brazil, I hope you can form your own team as soon as possible, go to the United States for training, and come back to participate in the battle as soon as possible. " With the nod of General Chambers, then it will be a foregone conclusion that Brazil will obtain the destroyer aided by the United States. (end of this chapter) Chapter 48: form a new team Chapter 48 Forming a New Team When leaving, Brigadier General Jackson was not with Fang Lang, but was stayed by Lieutenant General Chambers. "Jackson, the person you recommended is very good, I am very satisfied, and I will recommend him to General Marshall!" Brigadier General Jackson was also very satisfied. The candidate he recommended was favored by Lieutenant General Chambers. He said modestly: "It''s all for the general''s plan!" Chambers was very satisfied with Brigadier General Jackson''s performance, and rarely asked his opinion. "What kind of destroyer do you think we should provide Brazil?" As for what destroyer to provide to Brazil, there is still no conclusion. At this time, the most advanced destroyer in the United States must be the Keeling class. It is definitely impossible to provide such a destroyer to Brazil, which is not much in the US Navy. , after all, Brazil is not that important. The main warship currently equipped by the U.S. Navy is the Allen Sumner-class destroyer, with a number of about 70 ships. It is an enlarged model of the Fletcher-class destroyer and the best destroyer in World War II until 1975. The year began to gradually retire from the US Navy. Many of them were resold to third world countries after retiring, and they did not completely withdraw from the stage of history until the 1990s. The Fletcher-class destroyers with the largest number are of course more than 170 ships. It was almost the 1970s that he began to gradually retire. "If it is to be provided to Brazil, my suggestion is that the Fletcher class is enough. After all, this is our largest number of destroyers. It is obviously not in the interests of the United States to provide more advanced ones. If it is too backward, it will hurt Brazil. human emotions." Brigadier General Jackson is an American general after all, and it is impossible for him to be willing to provide the most advanced warships in the United States to Brazil, not even the British ally. "Since we have the same ideas, I will send a telegram to the country to apply for dispatching a Fletcher class to the Brazilians. Since the Brazilians have a new type of destroyer, they must join our **** operation on the Atlantic route Come on. I hope our young captain friend can show us his ability. Otherwise, we wont be able to find a better reason to continue supporting him in the later stage. Lieutenant General Chambers took a deep breath of his cigar. At this time, Fang Lang, who returned to the Gilas, was calling his crew to his side one by one, having a one-on-one conversation, and asking if he would like to serve on the destroyer. After all, the destroyer was going to the front line, so he had to choose those crew members who were willing to fight with him. Although he has only been the captain of the Gilas for two months, many crew members have become his loyal fans no matter in terms of work ability or allowances for the crew. After an in-depth conversation, 20 crew members of the Gilas were willing to follow Fang Lang to serve on the destroyer, including the first mate de la Torre and the chief engineer Amar Reina. Obviously, 20 crew members are a drop in the bucket for a destroyer that needs more than 350 people. In the next few days, Fang Lang was busy interviewing various personnel every day, including the fifteen people on the list provided by de la Torre, and the personnel provided by Colonel Parisi. There are people led by Lieutenant Colonel Graham. It''s a pity that Lieutenant Colonel Graham didn''t know that he was an out-and-out **** in Fang Lang''s mind now, and Fang Lang would never let his subordinates get in with him again. Finally, Fang Lang used Colonel Parisi to stuff the two hair boys he brought back from Sao Paulo into his team. And when Fang Lang formed a destroyer team for himself, in the cigarette factory in Sao Paulo, Brazil, Yang Zong and others finally made several unique flavors of cigarettes based on the ideas provided by Fang Lang. "Everyone try it out, these types of cigarettes, which one you think is the best!" There are five flavors of cigarettes in front of Yang Zong. They are all cigarettes of different flavors made by adding different spices according to the new production process. Several technicians in the factory were surprised after trying it out. They did not expect such a change in the cigarettes after such treatment. "It''s amazing that this kind of smoke can produce a sweet taste!" "I don''t like that sweet one, I like this one, it''s mellow enough and has a long aftertaste." "But I like this fragrance type! It has a floral fragrance, it smells really good!" "This kind of rose smells better! I will only smoke this kind in the future!" "Don''t you guys love the peppermint one! I bet it''s going to be a hit!" Everyone discussed the different feelings of several different flavors of cigarettes. It was almost all positive reviews, which made Yang Zong very excited. He directly announced the success of the cigarette test, and began to readjust the production line and formulate a new production process. Following the guidelines left by Fang Lang, create the Lucky cigarette brand. Create new packs for each flavor of cigarettes and start organizing production. The acquired newspaper has also begun to re-typeset according to Fang Lang''s guidance, and renamed it "Brazilian Times" and distributed it all over Brazil. In the early stage, it will be distributed to the government, major schools, hospitals, banks and other places in the form of free gifts. According to Fang Lang''s guidance, Brazil Times often attracts customers with sensational headlines, and the actual content is no longer boring, which is very different from the current newspapers. Therefore, it will soon gain a firm foothold in Brazil, and as soon as Fang Lang''s new printing machine purchased from the United States arrives, he can quickly occupy Brazil''s public opinion position. Although Brazil Times uses headlines to attract customers, it never has any political inclinations. It often tells news events in the form of storytelling, which surprised the Propaganda Department, which had just abolished censorship of books and newspapers, and began to focus on it. Follow the development of Brazil Times. Fang Lang, who was far away in Italy, finally built his team after repeated screening for about a week. Some special positions, such as radar, sonar and other arms that require relatively high professional skills, will be organized to go to the United States with Fang Lang to receive a one-month professional skills training. A group of 20 people took a US military transport plane to the east coast of the United States after several trips. Fang Lang and the new deputy captain de la Torre were sent to the West Point Military Academy in New York, USA for a one-month pre-job training. Other crew members were also sent to different locations to participate in corresponding job training. The training in the United States was mainly for some new technology arms such as radar, sonar, fire control, and turbines. Others studied in Italy on destroyers with the U.S. Navy. After arriving in New York, the United States, the United States Department of the Navy sent a special car to the temporary training class at West Point Military Academy. Because it was only a short-term training, no accommodation was arranged. Fortunately, Fang Lang had notified Wan Chongxin before departure, and rented a small apartment for the two of them near West Point. Because of the long journey, it took more than 30 hours. When they arrived in the United States, it was midnight, so after the two packed their luggage, they fell asleep directly. Early the next morning, while Fang Lang was still soundly asleep, Wan Chongxin had already knocked on Fang Lang''s door. "Boss, good morning! I brought you a special breakfast in Chinatown. I don''t know if you have eaten it yet!" After Wan Chongxin entered the room, he put the oiled paper bag he brought over on the table and put the Take everything out. "I said Ashin! Are you so early every day?" Fang Lang glanced at the rising sun outside the window, and said in surprise. "That''s definitely not the case. It''s just that I haven''t seen the boss for so long, and I have a lot of things to report to you. I''m afraid that you will have to go to class soon, so I can only come here to disturb you before your class." After finishing speaking, he pushed a breakfast in front of Fang Lang and said. "This is preserved egg porridge and fried dough sticks, do you want to try it?" "Okay! I haven''t eaten these things for a long time. Let''s talk while eating!" Fang Lang looked at the breakfast in front of him, and he was not polite. He looked at De La Torre who heard the sound coming out of another room road: "Old De, this is my friend Ashin. Here is the breakfast he brought over, come and have a taste together." After the two nodded to each other, de la Torre sat directly next to Fang Lang, looked at the porridge pushed in front of Fang Lang, and ate it unceremoniously. He still made clicks from time to time, obviously very satisfied with this breakfast. Thank you, Lei Mu, for liking me the most, you are fine, Qidian Reading iOS, Chang Ye Yu, and Lonely Patient 11 for their rewards, as well as your monthly tickets and recommendations.

Please rest assured that I have a complete outline of this novel, and I have also searched a lot of historical materials. I hope to vote and collect more. (end of this chapter) Chapter 49: work report Chapter 49 Work Report Fang Lang didn''t care when he saw that de la Torre was eating happily. After all, Fang Lang was still very confident in the combat effectiveness of Chinese food. Regardless of de la Torre, who was eating breakfast, looked at Wan Chong and said: "So many breakfasts, you haven''t eaten yet! Let''s chat while eating!" Wan Chongxin is not a coy person, he got up early in the morning, bought breakfast, but did not eat it, so he picked up the breakfast on the table and started to build. "Well! Then I''m not welcome!" "How about the penicillin production equipment and production process that I asked you to ask last time?" Fang Lang asked while drinking porridge. "I came here this time to explain this matter to you. I have inquired from many sources. Although the drug penicillin is not protected by patents, its preparation process and production equipment are kept secret. We have no way to buy it in the market. Production equipment." Wan Chongxin put down the porridge in his hand, picked up a deep-fried dough stick, shook his head before speaking. Fang Lang was a little surprised when he heard that he couldn''t buy production equipment. Isn''t the United States a free world? Why don''t things without patent protection not sell production equipment! This is a life-saving thing, Fang Lang will not give up so easily, he took a sip of the porridge in his hand, and then slowly said: "I understand, let''s do this! In my name, send a telegram to Commodore Jackson of the U.S. Fourth Fleet, explaining that he wants to buy a penicillin production line and see what he has to say. At the same time, if I can''t get it through official channels, have you found other channels? We have to prepare for the worst. If we cant get it through formal channels, then we cant find formal channels. It doesn''t matter whether the cat is black or white, as long as it catches mice, it is a good cat! Understand? " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Wan Chongxin was a little embarrassed, looked at Fang Lang hesitantly and said: "Although I grew up in Chinatown, my mother asked me not to join gangs even if I starved to death! So, although I know where the Chinese gangs are in Chinatown, I have no intersection at all! " Unexpectedly, in this era, there are people like Wan Chongxin who live in Chinatown and have no contact with gangs. No wonder he was in such a miserable situation when we first met him. But Fang Lang thinks about it, it''s better if a regular company follows the formal process, and it will be clean after checking. It''s better to find a special person to take charge of the informal channels. Isn''t my uncle a very suitable candidate? "That''s fine. First, you can use your own channels to help confirm who the person in charge of New York Hongmen is. I''ll find another person to be in charge of this line. Remember, you only need to find out who the person in charge is. You can find them wherever you can, and you dont need to come out and contact them yourself. Della Torre on the side saw that the two were communicating in English the whole time, and didn''t mean to avoid him. He didn''t know what he thought of, so he stood up and said: "You talk, I''ll go outside and have a look!" Fang Lang understood what he meant, obviously seeing that the topic they were talking about was a little sensitive, and worried that others would hear it, so he went outside to watch. Fang Lang was also polite, patted his arm, and nodded. But de la Torre''s idea is that he feels that Fang Lang trusts him and can let him listen in, but he can''t know too much about the private affairs of the leader. It''s too insignificant, so don''t know too much, no matter how people ask him, he doesn''t know anything. Seeing de la Torre''s actions, Wan Chongxin couldn''t help but look at him twice, and nodded with him. After de la Torre went out, the two began to communicate in Chinese. "Boss, there is no need to investigate this information. After all, I also grew up in Chinatown. Now there are many gangs in New York Chinatown. The most powerful one is the Hongmen you mentioned, but the Hongmen''s main hall is in San Francisco, and the New York one is a branch. The head of the hall is my fellow Fujianese, his name is Fang Jinao, and he should be almost fifty years old. I dont know where his home is, but I know that they are usually in a big restaurant in Chinatown called Sihaiyijia. If the most powerful gang forces in the United States must be them. " Unexpectedly, Wan Chongxin didn''t mix with gangs, and he knew so much about the gang''s situation, Fang Lang couldn''t help but look at him twice, with an expression on his face that you wouldn''t frame me. "Boss, don''t be surprised. I have a friend who grew up with me and is now a member of the Hongmen Grand Court. That''s why I know so clearly." "Okay! I understand. I''ll arrange other people to follow up on this matter, and you don''t have to worry about it anymore. Just pretend you don''t know about this matter. How much money is in the company''s account now!" Fang Lang didn''t doubt Wan Chongxin''s explanation. After all, as a Chinese who grew up in Chinatown, if he said that he didn''t have a gangster around him, no one would believe him. As for why Fang Lang thought of looking for Hongmen first, the reason is very simple. One is that Hongmen is very powerful in the United States, and there are people from all walks of life. Second, Roosevelt used to be Hongmen''s lawyer. With such a relationship, if you say that Hongmen has no influence in the United States, no ghost will believe it. "Currently, Global Trade has a capital of one million dollars in the New York headquarters. If you need it, we can transfer 18 million dollars from the Italian branch at any time." Fang Lang was very surprised to hear that his company had already had such a large-scale cash flow. "How can there be so much money? Have all the supplies we shipped back from Brazil been emptied?" "Yes, now our company has thirteen cargo ships, and these ships have already set off from Italy. Three ships will berth in New York to load the new machinery and equipment we purchased and head to Brazil. It is expected to arrive in ten days . Wan Chongxin obviously knows the company''s situation better than Fang Lang. "Since we already have so many ships in our fleet, it is necessary to set up a special shipping company. You should come forward to do this. Put all the ships under the name of this company, and the place of registration Putting it in the United States will make it easier for us to receive orders when Europe recovers. After the company is established, you can also start placing ship orders with American shipyards. Lets see if we can quickly expand our transportation company. "This may be more difficult, because the orders of American shipyards have been scheduled for four or eight years." Wan Chongxin is familiar with the situation of American shipyards. The transportation of aid materials has never stopped. Ships are sunk every day at sea. Therefore, the United States keeps piling up the number of ships every day. "This is not possible. Now many places in Italy and France have been recovered by the Allies. You will send a telegram to Kerns after you go back today. I remember that Genoa, Italy, has a very developed steel and shipbuilding industry. Our global trade cannot just stay around the world." in name, Genoa is still in the hands of the Germans. According to the current progress of the war, the Allied forces will definitely regain Genoa by the end of May. When the Allied forces have just occupied Genoa, we can directly sell it and get a high-quality one at the lowest price. shipyard. We must have our own shipbuilding industry, and at the same time see if we can acquire a steel factory. The demand for revived steel in Europe will be very strong. At the same time, you are in New York to see if there is an opportunity to set up a shipbuilding and steel company. Taking advantage of the current strong support for such companies in the United States, first establish the company and use the name of these two companies to hold shares in Italian companies . Although we entered the market late and could not keep up with the dividends of the war, we can start to apply for patents on containers and container ships. At that time, we will directly eliminate all the current freighters. No, not only in Italy and the United States, you organize manpower as soon as possible, and start buying shipyards and steel factories in Britain, France, and Germany. We need to build our own container ship empire in the shortest possible time. At the same time, we will acquire terminals in these countries and build our own container terminals. At that time, we will be the largest logistics giant in the world. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 50: company planning Chapter 50 Corporate Planning Wan Chongxin looked at Fang Lang dumbfounded. He didn''t expect Fang Lang''s goal to be so ambitious. I couldn''t help feeling a sense of pride and urgency welling up in my heart. But thinking about the cost of funds required for such a large plan, I can''t help but feel a little worried. "Although I don''t know what container ship you are talking about. However, according to your plan, the investment we need will be huge. We don''t have that much money now!" Of course Fang Lang knows that there is no concept of container freighters yet, which is where Fang Lang''s confidence lies in becoming bigger and stronger. "I will give you the concept and design of the container ship during this time. You''d better seize the time to set up a shipyard and recruit several ship design designers to complete it with me. Container terminals and port machinery and equipment, we also need to set up a special company to conduct research and apply for global patents. Believe me, this is going to be something that can change the world. You dont have to worry about money, we dont want to do it all at once, but one place at a time, first the establishment of a company in the United States, and then the acquisition of shipyards in the United Kingdom and France, and Italy and Germany where our favorite shipbuilding companies are located. After being recovered, we entered the site as soon as possible. The size of the shipyard does not have to be very large, but there must be a berth for building large ocean-going ships. " Wan Chongxin''s blood boiled when he heard about the huge plan of the boss. With such a clear direction, they needed to implement the rest by themselves. But after all, I am still young. From a young man who doesnt know anything, he was entrusted with a heavy responsibility by the boss, and now the company has a scale of more than 100 people. It is already very difficult to manage. Now the boss wants to spread the stall so Big, my ability is not enough! Now according to the bosss plan, there will be at least five new large-scale companies to be established in Global Trade, Global Shipping, Global Shipbuilding, Global Steel, Global Port Machinery, and Global Terminal. I am not busy enough! "I understand. I will start to make arrangements when I go back. I don''t know when the boss will have time to visit the company. Your office can always be empty, and the employees of the company want to see you! And, now you have Such a big plan, I am definitely not capable of completing it alone, lets see if we can recruit some more suitable personnel. Fang Lang is very satisfied with Wan Chongxin''s attitude. He certainly cannot leave such a big plan to him alone. This is not a matter of trust or distrust. He is responsible for everything. After that, these companies will not become His words are clear, so is he the boss, or is he the boss? "How about it! Tonight, you help me make an appointment with a barrister and accountant in New York, and I will chat with them in the company conference room after class. I wonder if there are any headhunting companies in the United States now!" Fang Lang packed the breakfast he had already eaten, put it back in the oiled paper bag, stood up and said. "A headhunting company? Do you mean a company that specializes in recruiting senior talents?" Wan Chongxin looked up at Fang Langdao while cleaning up the messy desktop. "Hey! There really is! Has there been a headhunting company in the United States so early?" The history of the headhunting company obviously touched Fang Lang''s blind spot of knowledge. When Wan Chongxin mentioned the company that was responsible for recruiting senior talents, Fang Lang knew that this must be the predecessor of the headhunting company. Wan Chongxin didn''t find that Fang Lang''s question was problematic. What does it mean to have a headhunting company so early? If not, where did you hear about it? If it is heard by someone with a heart, maybe his identity as a time traveler will be exposed, but people in this era are not so big-minded, and they definitely dont have the concept of a time traveler. Even if he tells others that he is from the future, there may not be anyone. Believe. "If my understanding of the company you mentioned is correct, I do know a talent search company founded by Dick Dillane in 1926. They specialize in finding suitable executives for companies." "Since this is the case, then you place an order with their company and recruit excellent managers and senior technical personnel for us. Inform me during the interview, and I will interview in person." Since there is such a professional company now, of course professional things should be left to professional people! This has always been Fang Lang''s creed. "Okay, boss, I''ll contact them when I get back. I don''t know if you have any other orders!" Fang Lang looked at his watch, and the time was almost eight o''clock before he knew it, and Fang Lang was about to report to the school. Then he shook his head and said, "Not for the time being. I will go to the company tonight. If there is anything else, we will talk about it later. It''s getting late and we''re requesting a report. You should go back early too!" Wan Chongxin heard that the boss was going to report, so he got up quickly and said, "Okay, boss, then I''ll go to work first, do you need me to pick you up at night?" Fang Lang waved his hand casually and said: "No, I don''t know when the settlement will be made. After I finish, I can just call a car and go there." "Goodbye, boss!" Wan Chongxin said, picked up the garbage after eating, opened the door and walked out, and did not forget to nod to De La Torre who was guarding outside the door. After Fang Lang and de la Torre cleaned up, they couldn''t wait to rush to the training location of West Point Military Academy. When they arrived, several classmates were already sitting in the classroom. Everyone looked at the two of them with scrutiny in their eyes, especially when they looked at Fang Lang, two of them were obviously disgusted. Fang Lang has experienced this kind of look a lot, and he knows that he has encountered racial discrimination. Although he didn''t know which country these people were from, Fang Lang wouldn''t mind teaching them a lesson if given the chance. After noticing the eyes of several people, De La Torre on one side was about to stand up. Although Fang Lang is much younger than him, he is very convinced by Fang Lang. And Fang Lang is now taking him back to the destroyer, and he is still the most advanced destroyer, serving as the deputy captain, which makes de la Torre regard himself as Fang Lang''s confidant, and now he sees that someone dares to treat his chief Disrespect, this is unbearable. Fang Lang stretched out his hand and pressed it on De La Torre''s shoulder. With Fang Lang''s current strength, De La Torre could not stand up. He could only glared at the eyes of several people, and sat down resentfully. Fang Lang was also very angry about this kind of discrimination, but now this is a military camp, and the other party just cast a look, and did not provoke, Fang Lang would not fire the first shot. If someone dares to be verbally provocative, Fang Lang will definitely let the other party know why the flowers are so popular. Soon the staff arrived one after another. After the entire classroom was filled with about thirty people, no one came in anymore. It didn''t take long for a middle-aged white man with blond hair and casual clothes to walk up to the podium and introduce himself. "Hello everyone, I am Professor Maxim of the Naval Command Academy at West Point. I am responsible for teaching you the functions and functions of the various systems of the Fletcher-class destroyer, their basic working principles, and how we fight in wars. Integrate and use it. These are related to everyone''s life and death on the battlefield, so I hope everyone can take it seriously." Then he started to give lectures on the podium on his own, without organizing activities such as self-introduction of students, election of class monitor, etc., and he didn''t even know whether there was a class teacher Fang Lang. Just when class was over at the end, a young military student came in and distributed a student handbook and class schedule to everyone. The student handbook has clear regulations on the things during the study period, in every detail, and the punishment regulations. Because the entire class is composed of white students, and only Fang Lang is of the yellow race, when the military student handed out manuals and schedules to Fang Lang, he also glanced at Fang Lang with a strange look, and did not communicate with Fang Lang at all. . This made Fang Lang very angry. At least this was the first time he felt real racial discrimination after traveling to Brazil. Although no one had any verbal conflicts with him, ignoring him the whole time was actually the biggest discrimination. After class, several students in the distance often gather together and point at Fang Lang, which makes Fang Lang very upset. When Fang Lang was in modern society, China had already risen in the world, and many people were proud of learning Mandarin. Although there are some whites who discriminate against Chinese, they have never encountered such a situation. When I was in Italy, I dont know if it was because I was wearing a military uniform that I didnt feel this kind of discrimination. I didn''t feel this kind of naked discrimination, including on American transport ships, but now in American classrooms, I am discriminated against by students who don''t know where they come from. (end of this chapter) Chapter 51: discriminate Chapter 51 Discrimination Encountering this situation, Fang Lang was both angry and helpless, and he couldn''t help but secretly feel ruthless, you bastards, wait for me, don''t give me a chance, I will make you pay for this impolite behavior . Della Torre beside him kept looking at the group of white people. Although whites account for the largest proportion of the Brazilian population, whites in Brazil do not have this innate sense of superiority. Thinking about the Chinese Exclusion Act that was abolished in 1943, Fang Lang''s heart slowly began to burn with an unknown fire. It seems that in the future, my company in the United States will have to close the door to all white people who have a tendency to discriminate. Fang Lang was very upset about this day''s class. He clenched his fists many times, and his belief in making the Chinese stronger was strengthened in his heart. Now it is impossible for me to leave the United States to develop, so I don''t have the idea of ??giving up because of choking. After class, Fang Lang bid farewell to de la Torre and went directly to the headquarters of Global Trading Company in New York. Today''s Global Trade is no longer the warehouse at the pier. Although this warehouse is still reserved as a delivery point for the cargo carried by the US Navy crew. However, the company''s office has already moved to an office building not far from the pier. Although the area is small, the company has a lot of staff, because the current global trade has begun to accept import and export orders from other customers, and has begun to search for various industrial equipment in the United States according to Fang Lang''s request. "Boss, the barrister and accountant you requested have arrived. Commodore Jackson''s call back has also been received. Do I need to read it to you now?" Wan Chongxin welcomed Fang Lang into the company while reporting what happened this morning. The two walked into the company''s office while talking, because it was already off work time, so most of the employees had already gone home from get off work. In the United States, no employee will work overtime to meet his boss. Getting off work on time is the norm. Only the management of a few important positions in the company are still waiting in their office workstations. "Oh! What did Commodore Jackson say!" Fang Lang stopped and looked at Wan Chongdao beside him. "Brigadier General Jackson gave an address, saying that it was John Clark''s mother, and suggested that you visit her." While talking, Wan Chongxin took out a telegram from the folder in his hand and handed it to Fang Lang. Glancing at the telegram in his hand, Fang Lang wrote down the address, and returned the telegram to Wan Chongxin for safekeeping. Continue to walk towards the office area: "Help me prepare a gift for visiting the elders. I will meet this aunt the night after tomorrow. You can help me understand why Brigadier Jackson suggested that I visit her in the next two days." Fang Lang remembered that when John introduced his mother to himself, he only said that his mother was a Jew and did not introduce too much. Now it seems that John''s mother should not be an ordinary housewife. "Okay, boss." As they spoke, the two of them had already walked in front of the four company managers who were still in the company. Wan Chongxin pointed to a slightly lean white man in his forties and said: "This is the company''s financial manager, Stan Weber, who has six years of financial experience in import and export trading companies." Stan Weber looked a little cautious, rubbing the sweat on his palms before holding Fang Lang''s outstretched right hand: "Hi Boss, I''m Stan Webb and it''s a pleasure to work for you." Fang Lang felt that this person was a little timid, and wondered if he had some mental illness, but the current situation was not suitable for asking, so he just nodded politely to him. Wan Chongxin pointed to a man with blond curly hair and said: "This is the company''s Purchasing Manager Jada Cummings, mainly looking for the company''s needed products." Jeda Cummings stood up, shook hands with Fang Lang lightly, and then let go, looking very casual: "Hello!" Fang Lang noticed that after shaking hands, he put his hands behind his back and moved his arms! Obviously, it was Yu Fang Lang who had shaken the hand and wiped it behind his back. Fang Lang nodded calmly. Wan Chongxin obviously didn''t notice this person''s movements, and was about to introduce the next person, only to see this middle-aged black-haired strong man in a suit and leather shoes stretch out his hands, and said with a smile on his face: "Hello, boss! I am Kosi Bilic, the head of the sales department, is mainly responsible for finding sellers who want to buy goods in the US market." Fang Lang smiled, stretched out his hand and shook the other party''s hand. The other party''s handshake was very strong, and it would not hurt your hand. The strength was very well grasped. The last blond young woman also took the initiative to say: "Hello boss, I am Jennifer Osei from the Human Resources Department, nice to meet you." After speaking, he shook hands with Fang Lang lightly. After Fang Lang and others finished the introduction, he said directly: "Hello everyone, I am your boss. It is very late today. In order not to delay everyone''s rest time, you can go home and rest first. Remember to come to work on time tomorrow .By the way, the manager of the purchasing department will not come tomorrow, Miss Orsay, I will go through the formalities for him later. Fang Lang''s words stunned everyone, and Jada Cummings stood up and shouted angrily, "What do you mean?" "I don''t think you are suitable to stay in my company. I suggest you find another job! If you have any dissatisfaction or questions, you can talk to the company''s lawyer." Fang Lang''s tone was calm, and he couldn''t see any emotions or anger. After a day''s experience at school, he couldn''t find an outlet to vent! Unexpectedly, there was a racist in his company in front of him, so there was nothing to say, and he was fired directly. "FUCK, you yellow-skinned monkey, why do you fire me, you are ready to receive a subpoena from the court!" Cummings was furious, pointing at Fang Lang''s nose with a flushed face and cursing! "Really? Now I have enough reasons to sue you for racial discrimination. You are also ready to receive a subpoena! I will prepare one hundred thousand dollars to fight this lawsuit with you, and I can also sue you in a military court by the way, The reason is to insult the officers of the Confederate States, um! I will ask the barrister in the office later to see how many years he can send you in, how can there be ten years for 100,000 yuan! One more year, I will pay him more Ten thousand dollars, and I''m sure he''d be happy to take that deal!" After finishing speaking, Wan Chongxin and Jennifer Orsay looked aside: "In the future, if there are employees with racial discrimination tendencies, please stop recruiting them. Miss Orsay, I hope that your personnel department will use this as a criterion for recruiting employees in the future." Principle 1. There is zero tolerance for racial discrimination in the company, and if found, they will be fired immediately. This is the first one, I dont blame you, I hope you take the time to conduct a survey of everyone in the company, and dissuade all employees who are prone to racial discrimination. All management are fined ten dollars if there is an incident of racial discrimination. Understand? " Everyone was a little scared by Fang Lang''s cold eyes. After all, Fang Lang had killed people on the battlefield, and he had a murderous look on him. The people who were targeted were a little creepy and cold. At this time, Cummings heard that Fang Lang was willing to spend one hundred thousand dollars to send him to a cell! Looking at his cold eyes again, he wanted to say a few harsh words, but he didn''t dare, so he could only wheeze and clenched his fists. In fact, there were no charges of racial discrimination in this period, but what Fang Lang said about insulting the Allied officers really scared Cummings. In a military court, he might be sent to prison. Besides, Fang Lang is willing to spend 100,000 dollars to send him to prison, how can you guarantee that he won''t spend 100,000 dollars to buy his life! This is free America, shooting every day. Jennifer Orsay also reacted at this moment and said: "Mr. Cummings, I suggest you go through the resignation procedures with me directly, and don''t make it difficult for everyone." Fang Lang, on the other hand, ignored the reactions of the few people, and walked directly into the conference room. At the same time, he did not forget to say to Wan Chongxin beside him, "Can''t you see that he is racist?" Wan Chongxin was a little at a loss and said: "I know, but I''m used to it, and it''s pretty good now. I have encountered more serious situations before." "I didn''t care what happened before, but if there is a tendency to racial discrimination in my company, I will not be hired, understand? Ask Jennifer Orsay tomorrow, if this ghost applies for divorce, I can not hold him accountable, But if he doesn''t have the sense, there are a lot of shooters out there who can sell their lives for $10,000, you understand?" Fang Lang was very angry. Could it be that he has been used to being discriminated against after staying in the United States for a long time, so can he tolerate it? (end of this chapter) Chapter 52: Follow up Chapter 52 follow-up Wan Chongxin was a little out of his composure by Fang Lang''s sudden attack today. After all, he recruited everyone in this company, and someone actually showed a racially discriminatory attitude when they first met the boss. Is it just racial discrimination, or does it have ulterior motives! Thinking of this, Wan Chongxin broke out in cold sweat on his forehead, and his high spirits during this period were suddenly beaten back to his original form. Especially when Fang Lang said that a gunman outside only cost $10,000, Wan Chongxin was even more terrified. Because he knows, it doesn''t take that much at all. There are a lot of people fighting for a thousand dollars. Hastily opened the mouth in fear and trepidation: "Boss, I''m sorry! I was wrong! I will never allow this to happen again." For no reason, I began to feel awe of the young boss in front of me. "Forget it this time. Tomorrow, we will clean up all the employees with racial discrimination in the company, understand? Also, when I send a telegram back to Brazil, I will ask my uncle Fang Xinshui to bring someone to New York, and say that I need him for something." Do." Fang Lang did not punish Wan Chongxin because of this matter. After all, he has been living in this environment, and it is normal for him to be unable to reverse it for a while, but if the Chinese want to stand up in the future, they must completely eliminate this concept Just change. As a manager, he was discriminated against by the employees, how to carry out the work, this is not a simple violation of the law. Now Fang Lang is very suspicious that the so-called penicillin production equipment cannot be purchased, so it is true or false. After all, this ghost is the manager of the purchasing department. "Boss, don''t worry, tomorrow I will personally face all the people with racial discrimination tendencies to dismiss them one by one." Wan Chongxin was obviously very angry this time, someone dared to directly discriminate against the boss''s Chinese identity, you have already discriminated against the Chinese, why are you still working in a Chinese company! Go early and be quiet. "Also, what happened to that financial manager, Stan Weber, why do I think he is a bit, um! I can''t tell, he may have some mental illness!" Fang Lang stood not far from the meeting room, looking at Wan Chongdao. "Boss, don''t worry, he''s mentally fine. He''s a Jew. He used to be a very good accountant in Germany, but he was caught in a concentration camp and escaped somehow. Since he came out, he''s been feeling a little bit, how should I say it! It''s a bit like a frightened bird, the kind that gets scared at the slightest sign of trouble. However, I guarantee that there is absolutely no problem with his business ability." Wan Chongxin didn''t have a clear understanding of this situation, but he could be sure that this person''s ability to work was absolutely fine, so he patted his chest and assured Fang Lang. "Your boy is illiterate. Isn''t this just a mental illness after being detained and tortured? You should pay more attention to him in your work and life. This is also a poor man. If you know where there is a right to this A doctor who is familiar with a mental illness can arrange for him to be examined and treated. Since they are our employees, we are responsible for their physical and mental health." People in this era have not yet started to pay attention to such psychological diseases, but Fang Lang, as a modern person, knows something about it. Although he is not very professional, he knows a little more than most people in this era . Finally, the two came to the company''s conference room. Wan Chongxin stepped forward and opened the door, and saw two people sitting on either side of a conference table in the conference room, both in suits and leather shoes, very formally dressed. Wan Chongxin began to introduce the two parties: "Hi everyone, this is Fang Lang, the boss of our company, Mr. Fang. Boss, the one on the left is from Kravis Law Firm, Mr. Charlie and his assistant, and the one on the right is Mr. Mr. Miller and his assistant from Deloitte LLP." Several people got up one after another and shook hands with Fang Lang one by one. After several people got to know each other, Fang Lang said straight to the point: "I called everyone here this time because there is a business I want to entrust to you. I hope you can help me see if it can be realized from your own professional perspective!" After a few people looked at each other, Lawyer Charlie said, "Mr. Fang, please tell me directly, if it is a business we can undertake, we will definitely go all out." Our company has a huge business plan, so we are going to set up several new companies and branch offices in many countries. I hope you can help us complete the company registration. Of course, if it is an ordinary company registration business, there is no need to trouble a professional team like yours. I hope that the owners of these companies can use cross-shareholding or other methods to prevent others from easily finding out that the boss of these companies is me. ! " Fang Lang looked seriously at the industry elites in front of him. These things are routine operations in later generations, especially after the independence of many small countries after World War II, many tax havens have emerged. Apparently, this is the first time for a few people to encounter such a commission, but as long as someone gives money, what problems can''t be solved? "Mr. Fang, do you have any requirements for the company''s registered address and number?" "Are you able to bear the financial and tax risks arising from this?" The persons in charge on both sides raised their own questions respectively. "I have no requirements for the address and quantity. The only thing is to make everyone who wants to investigate the company''s background confused about the direction, but the financial aspect must be clear. Of course, it is best to find ways to avoid taxes." Several people asked a few more questions, and Fang Lang also explained his thoughts one by one. Soon, several people made detailed records of all Fang Lang''s requirements, and said that they would go back and plan carefully, and then give For a specific quotation, Fang Lang simply stated that if he is satisfied with this entrustment, all legal and financial auditing business of the company will be handed over to the two companies in the future. This makes both parties very happy, and the two companies can also see the future of the company from Fang Lang''s plan, and of course they will not take this order lightly. The next day, Fang Lang went to school as usual. I don''t know if the company''s racially discriminatory employees were fired last night. Fang Lang''s tolerance for seeing a few classmates whispering again increased significantly. After chatting with these students a few times, they gradually found it boring. Gradually, he began to completely ignore Fang Lang''s existence, and Fang Lang was happy to be at leisure, as long as everyone didn''t violate the river water, Of course, not everyone has the concept of racial discrimination in this way. Slowly, Fang Lang made three friends in school, one of them was British, and two of them were French, but Fang Lang could also see that the three of them The relationship between people and other people is also average. Later, Fang Lang discovered that the three of them were all from grass roots, while the other proud people belonged to the aristocratic group. After school the next day, Fang Lang came to the company again, met with the business personnel of the headhunting company, explained his personnel requirements in detail, and signed the entrusted recruitment agreement. I also learned about the company''s liquidation situation today. A total of ten people were persuaded to leave by the company because of their tendency to racial discrimination. A tenth of the proportion is not particularly exaggerated, and it is within Fang Lang''s acceptance range. Wan Chongxin also told Fang Lang that Fang Xinshui, who called back from Brazil, had confirmed his itinerary. He took a Pan American flight the day after tomorrow and came to New York from Rio de Janeiro. He had already rented an apartment and was ready to settle down. Fang Lang is still very satisfied with Wan Chongxin''s working ability. At least he can take the initiative to make arrangements without having to order everything himself, which makes Fang Lang very satisfied. Although Wan Chongxin was beaten last night with the help of employees who are aware of racial discrimination. But Fang Lang was very happy to see Wan Chongxin recover so quickly. "I''m going to visit John Clark''s mother tomorrow night. Although I''ve already contacted John in the telegram, it''s not very polite to visit at night, so tomorrow''s gift should be a little more delicate. Although your information shows that Mrs. Clarks familys mechanical equipment factory is capable of manufacturing penicillin production equipment, dont place your hopes on this side. This is just a simple visit. I hope you can look for ways to see if there is hope to buy penicillin production equipment and production technology in the market. I doubt whether the original news that production equipment cannot be purchased in the market is true. Be sure to re-investigate clearly. We conduct a three-way comparison to see where it is the cheapest, so we will buy from there! " "Then I will reschedule the investigation tomorrow morning, and I will definitely give you a clear answer before you leave!" (end of this chapter) Chapter 53: visit Chapter 53 Visit "Sir! Here we are, this is the address you provided." Under the dim light, the taxi stopped outside a small villa on the outskirts of New York. "Okay, thank you! You don''t need to look for the rest, it''s your tip!" Fang Lang got off the taxi, holding a large box of Chinatown''s special pastries in his hand. He went straight to the door of the villa and knocked on the door. "Excuse me, is Mrs. Clark at home?" The lights were on in the house, and Fang Lang knew someone was at home. In fact, it is not polite to come to visit others so late, but Fang Lang has to study at school during the day, and the time is tight and the tasks are heavy. There is really no way to come out to visit during the day, so he can only take the liberty of visiting at night. Fortunately, after Commodore Jackson suggested that Fang Lang visit John''s mother, Fang Lang sent a telegram to John, who was serving in the Pacific Fleet. Unexpectedly, he got a response soon. After learning about Fang Lang''s needs, John directly expressed I will send a telegram to my mother first, and let Fang Lang visit directly. Before departure, Wan Chongxin also gave the news again that he had not found a supplier of penicillin production equipment, which forced Fang Lang to transfer his hope to Mrs. Clark''s family''s machinery factory. Soon a young girl in her early twenties opened the door, looked at Fang Lang at the door and said: "who are you looking for!" Looking at the girl in front of him, Fang Lang knew that he had found the right place, because the girl''s facial features were somewhat similar to John''s. Fang Lang smiled politely and said: "Hello! I am John''s comrade-in-arms, and my name is Fang Lang. I don''t know if John has told you." "Ah! You are finally here. Mom and I have been waiting for you for a day. My brother sent a telegram to the family. We thought you would come during the day!" Sofia Clark happily let the door open, pointed to the room with her finger, and signaled Fang Lang to come in. The girl''s words made Fang Lang a little embarrassed. He didn''t expect that they would wait for his arrival at home. "I''m really sorry, because I''m currently studying in a short-term training class at West Point Military Academy, so I have to participate in the study during the day, and I only have time to visit at night!" While talking, he walked into the room. The room is not big, and it is a typical American villa style. Mrs. Clark, who was in the house, also came out with a smile on her face. After hearing Fang Lang''s words, he smiled and said: "It''s okay, Fang. John told us that you are his savior. Come in and sit inside. It''s cold outside." Fang Lang saw that there were only two women at home, so it seemed inappropriate for him to come so late, and he was a bit miscalculated! This made Fang Lang a little embarrassed. Hastily opened the mouth and said: "Mrs. Clark is really very sorry. I should have come to visit you earlier. I am sorry for waiting so long. I brought some snacks from our Chinese. I hope you like them." Seeing Fang Lang''s embarrassed expression, Mrs. Clark smiled, took the gift box Fang Lang handed over, and motioned Fang Lang to sit on the sofa in the living room. "Sophia pours Fang a cup of coffee! Fang, have you had dinner yet? I''m going to make you something to eat now." Fang Lang waved his hands again and again, "Mrs. Clark, I have already eaten at school, and a sip of hot coffee is good." The more Fang Lang thinks about it, the more he feels that this visit is very rude, but since he has already arrived, it is not good to just turn around and leave! "Fang, don''t be restrained, John said you need my help with something?" Hearing Mrs. Clark''s direct question, Fang Lang also breathed a sigh of relief. Now that he has come, there is nothing to be hypocritical about, so he said frankly: "Yes, Mrs. Clark, I heard from Brigadier General Jackson that your family has the means to obtain penicillin production equipment and production technology?" Ms. Clark is obviously a housewife who does not participate in her natal business, but she has also heard of penicillin, an anti-inflammatory medicine. "Penicillin! This new drug is not lacking in the US market now!" "Yes, Mrs. Clark, mainly my family wants to invest in a factory in Brazil to produce this drug." Hearing that Fang Lang''s family wanted to build a factory in Brazil, it was also a business, and it was just a matter of effort for him, so Mrs. Clark said without hesitation: "How about this! You sit here for a while, I''ll go up and make a call and ask my brother. My father''s factory is now managed by my brother, and I don''t know the situation very well. But since Jackson asked you to come and find Me, that shouldn''t be a problem." Fang Lang was no longer polite, and said directly: "Okay, thank you Mrs. Clark." Mrs. Clark nodded and walked up to the second floor. At this time, Sophia Clark was walking out with a cup of coffee and said: "Hey! Are you calling Fang? I heard from John that you saved his life on the battlefield. Is that true?" Sophia is a typical big American girl. She is about 1.7 meters tall and has exquisite curves. Because she is of mixed race, her face shape is not the sharp-edged type that is common in Europe and the United States. Instead, she has an Asian softness. Her skin is a healthy wheat color, which fits her very well. Fang Lang''s aesthetics. "Yes, it''s actually nothing, we are comrades in arms, and if he encounters this situation on the battlefield, he will save me!" After all, Fang Lang is still the cause of the humble character of the Chinese people, and he doesn''t want to give people the feeling of repaying favors, so he expressed it very plainly. It''s a pity that Sophia didn''t want to let him go so easily, she just sat down beside him and said: "Quick, quick, tell me what happened at that time, John didn''t make it clear, he is my brother, I know him very well, if it wasn''t true, he wouldn''t have sent a special telegram to ask my mother to help you! " "Okay! In fact, what happened is also very simple. At that time, we were attacking the positions defended by the Germans. John''s leg was hit by a stray bullet and fell in the trench. When I passed by him, I heard the Germans Hearing the roar of the approaching artillery shells, he rushed over when he felt something was wrong, dragging him out of the trench. As soon as we came out, the cannonball just hit the place where your brother was lying. Because I was standing, I was directly blown away by the shock wave of the cannonball for more than ten meters, and I didnt know anything when I landed! When I woke up, it was already more than ten days later. Just lying in the hospital with your brother. " Although Fang Lang said it very easily, the situation at the time must have been very thrilling, and Fang Lang was directly thrown more than ten meters away by a shell because he saved John. If it wasn''t for his fate, he would have died early. Sophia opened her mouth so wide that a fist could fit in it, and her face turned pale. Obviously frightened by the scene Fang Lang said. "My God! The war is really terrible. I don''t know when this **** war will end. I really hope that John will go home as soon as possible, and I don''t want him to experience such a horrible thing again." Seeing Sophia''s expression and face, Fang Lang thought he would have known that he would not have said it, and his relatives would not hear such exciting news. Fortunately, I didn''t tell my family about the scene when I went home, otherwise my mother would probably be scared to cry. "It''s all right now. He works in the naval logistics department. He doesn''t need to rush to the front line anymore. There is nothing dangerous. Don''t worry!" Of course, Sophia knows about John''s current job, but thinking of her brother''s experience at that time, she still has lingering fears and said: "Fang, brother is right, you are his savior, without you, brother must be dead Saved! Thank you! If it weren''t for you, I would have lost John forever." Fang Lang felt at ease about Sophia''s gratitude. After all, the original body did sacrifice his life to save John''s life. "It''s okay, things are over, we all have to look forward, don''t we? Both of us are living well now." American women in this era are not as open as later generations. Although the women''s liberation movement has begun to emerge, most women are still relatively conservative, so Fang Lang originally wanted to give Sophia a hug to comfort her. Thinking about it, I still didn''t open my arms. "Yeah! You all have to be good. By the way, why did you come to New York to study! Aren''t you the Brazilian Expeditionary Force?" The mood of the American girl came and went quickly, and in a blink of an eye the topic turned to Fang Lang, which made Fang Lang, who was about to comfort Sophia, a little bit wrong. "Uh! Well! It''s a long story. Because of my injuries, I always fainted suddenly for no reason. Therefore, after the military doctor judged that I was not suitable for continuing to serve in the army, I was transferred to work on the navy''s transport ship. It is also equivalent to switching to logistics. Some time ago, Brazil and the United States reached an agreement to train a group of new captains, and I was selected to participate in the training." (end of this chapter) Chapter 54: reward Chapter 54 Harvest Man! There is always some vanity when facing beautiful women, so Fang Lang didn''t tell him that he didn''t want to continue fighting and just wanted to make a fortune, so he transferred to the navy. "Wow! Are you the captain now? You are younger than me! You are amazing." Sophia''s eyes were shining, staring at Venus, and she began to look at Fang Lang with an expression of admiration. After all, his father was also in the navy, so he knew how difficult it was to be a navy captain. Although Fang Lang didn''t say it was a destroyer, he told him that he was the captain of a transport ship, but a transport ship is also a ship! "Uh! It''s okay! This may be a time of war, and manpower is relatively scarce!" "What''s so happy about it!" Mrs. Clark walked down the stairs with a smile, looking at the two young people who were chatting happily below and said. When Fang Lang saw Mrs. Clark''s smiling expression, he felt a little hopeful in his heart. He got up quickly, and just when he was about to speak, Sophia beside him had already spoken: "Mom! Do you know! It turns out that Fang almost died in order to save John! It''s scary to think about it." Hearing Sophia''s words, Fang Lang didn''t want Mrs. Clark to ask what happened again, so he quickly changed the topic and said: "It''s not that exaggerated. Aren''t we all living well now? I don''t know what the result of Mrs. Clark''s question will be." Mrs. Clark looked at her daughter, then at you Fang Lang, knowing that Fang Lang didn''t want to talk more, so she said directly: "What you want can be provided at home, but I heard from my brother that it may not be easy for you to ship it out of the United States. Although the government has not restricted the export of these equipment. However, the production of penicillin on the market now, They are all in the hands of several medical giants, and they may not let these devices flow out of the United States easily." As soon as he heard that the U.S. government had not imposed restrictions on these drug production equipment, Fang Lang was also relieved, and quickly confirmed: "You mean, the U.S. government doesn''t restrict the export of equipment, right?" After all, the Cold War has not yet started, and Batumi has not yet been established. The United States still pursues the idea of ??free trade, so it has not restricted the export of some equipment from the government level. Of course, Brazil was not an embargo country for Batumi either. But this does not mean that Brazil can easily obtain these equipment. Yes, the U.S. military is open to the production of penicillin. They hope that there will be plenty of cheap drugs that will save the lives of soldiers. Obviously, Mrs. Clark, as the wife of an American general, has a relatively clear idea of ??the American army. This is indeed the reality. The fundamental reason why the drug penicillin is open to patents is to allow soldiers in wartime to use the best antibacterial drugs faster. But the price of penicillin during this period was indeed ridiculously high. In early 1945, the monthly output of penicillin was 4.7 tons, and the price dropped to $25 per gram, or $200 a bottle. Although the quantity is enough for all Allied soldiers, the pharmaceutical giants who are businessmen are definitely not willing to let such good product technology flow out and let other people enter this market to share their cakes, so although the government does not restrict , but the pharmaceutical giants are still restricting the outflow of technology overtly and secretly. "Then don''t you know if these devices are in stock?" Fang Lang knew that now is the period of rapid development of penicillin production, and the manufacture of production equipment must be very tight, so he was also worried about how long he would be able to get the equipment. "There is definitely no stock in stock. The equipment on the production line is now ordered by several major pharmaceutical companies. If you are sure that you need it, they can arrange to jump in and start production right now, and the delivery can be made in about a week. Brother means, in order to thank you for saving Johns life, they can secretly produce this batch of equipment without making a production plan, but you have to find a way to arrange for the personnel to be transported away at the first time, and you cant let them Find. " Mrs. Clark''s family obviously didn''t want to offend the entire pharmaceutical industry for Fang Lang. After all, these companies are their company''s real long-term customers. "No problem, my fleet will arrive in the United States soon, just in time to pick up this batch of equipment, but this may have a bad impact on your family business!" If it can be completed within a week, it can just catch up with the three transport ships from Italy. But Fang Lang didn''t want their family''s business to be affected because of his business. "It''s okay, as long as they don''t get caught with direct evidence." Ms. Clark''s face was calm, and she was obviously very confident in her family''s business. After all, the United States is a capitalist society, and there is nothing that cannot be settled by money. If there is, it can only mean that the money is not enough. "I don''t know what products your family mainly produces. If possible, we will purchase a batch of other equipment to make this batch of equipment less conspicuous." Fang Lang was also very surprised that Mrs. Clark''s family could produce such advanced equipment. Of course, he didn''t want to simply purchase a batch of pharmaceutical equipment. If such a good resource is not used, it does not conform to Fang Lang''s frugal character. "Our family is mainly responsible for the manufacture of some chemical equipment. Specifically, it seems to be used to manufacture acid and alkali materials. Production equipment such as chemical fertilizers, pesticides, and medicines are also our main products." Mrs. Clark''s answer directly opened a new door for Fang Lang. It turns out that Fang Lang has been trying to establish his own industry in Brazil, but most of them are deep-processing export-oriented enterprises, which cannot play a role in Brazil''s own economy. What a big impact, but Mrs. Clark''s answer immediately opened Fang Lang''s mind. The most direct thing must be the manufacture of pesticides and fertilizers, but what is more important in Fang Lang''s mind is the preparation of basic chemical raw materials of three acids and two alkalis, which will directly affect the lifeline of a country''s basic chemical raw materials industry. But food needs to be eaten bite by bite. Now the funds on hand cannot be fully blossomed. It can only be a priority to solve a part of the industry that can bear fruit immediately. "This is really great. We can use all these equipments. Brazil is a big agricultural country and has a huge demand for chemical fertilizers and pesticides. Then we can directly purchase a batch of these equipments and entrain the equipment for making penicillin. Hard to spot." This can not only meet his actual needs, but also solve the problem of confidentiality. It is simply killing two birds with one stone, and Fang Lang is very satisfied. But Mrs. Clark doesn''t think so. After all, such a large-scale procurement would require a huge amount of funds, but few companies have such strength. So she said worriedly: "If this is the case, your purchase cost will be huge! As far as I know, the price of these devices is very high!" Fang Lang doesn''t want to become a big fat man in one go, nor does he want to directly increase the scale of the factory at once. As long as there is a production line, after mastering the production process, it will not be too late to expand the production capacity and scale. I believe that with the funds on hand, it is completely possible to purchase. "The price is not a problem. The key is that I bought these equipment. Can you help me get the production process of the specific product! After all, if we only have the equipment, we don''t know the manufacturing process of the specific product, and the equipment will be a pile of waste after we buy it back." iron." As a modern person, Fang Lang is very clear about what is really important, and machinery and equipment are easy to solve, but manufacturing technology is the foundation of a company, so Fang Lang is not worried about the purchase of machinery and equipment. But the really important process of product manufacturing cannot be purchased directly. However, as a manufacturer of these equipment, there must be a manufacturing process for these products, otherwise these equipment will not be able to be built. Of course, it is hard to say whether these technological processes were developed by the company itself. "I want to ask about this. If you need to purchase other production equipment, I suggest that you directly arrange personnel to go to the company for formal business negotiations, so that it will not attract attention." Mrs. Clark obviously didn''t know the actual situation in the family business, so she couldn''t answer Fang Lang directly. But with this relationship, Fang Lang''s company will definitely get special care when it wants to purchase these equipment again. Since the other party is willing to produce a set of penicillin manufacturing equipment for Fang Lang without making a production plan, it can be seen that Mrs. Clark''s position in her natal brother is still very important. "Yes, this is the best way. You should explain it to your brother first. Tomorrow, I will ask the purchasing personnel of Global Trading Company to directly negotiate with the company in the name of purchasing a complete set of pesticide and fertilizer production equipment." (end of this chapter) Chapter 55: uncle coming Chapter 55 Uncle Arrives After communicating with Mrs. Clark, Fang Lang returned to the apartment and called Wan Chongxin directly to go to Mrs. Clark''s family business in the name of the company tomorrow morning to negotiate the purchase of pesticide and fertilizer equipment. What Fang Lang didn''t know was that Mrs. Clark''s natal family was having a dispute over his order. Mrs. Clark was born Heidi Lamar Cole. The Cole family did not develop for a long time. It was founded by Mrs. Clark''s father, David Cole, and is mainly engaged in the manufacture of chemical equipment. The reason why I set foot in the manufacture of medical equipment is that during the war, I worked as an OEM for Johnson & Johnson, so I had the opportunity to get in touch with the manufacture of medical production equipment. "Father, is it worthwhile for us to take the risk of offending Johnson & Johnson to secretly produce a set of equipment? Even if Johnson & Johnson doesn''t find out now, once this Brazilian guy starts selling penicillin in Brazil, then all companies capable of manufacturing these equipment will definitely be investigated Yes. I don''t think we can go undetected." Charlie Cole complained to his father, Clark''s brother Richard Cole, with a displeased expression on his face. "Charlie, it''s not just about business! It''s kindness! Your grandfather taught us the importance of family from an early age. He saved your cousin John''s life. We must be grateful!" Richard Cole educated his son painstakingly. "The little bastard''s surname is Clark, not Cole. We have no obligation to help him repay his favor." Charlie is obviously very dissatisfied with his father''s putting family affection and business in the same position. Not to mention for John, who had been at odds with him since he was a child. "You bastard, he is my nephew. He is also your younger brother. Since when did you start, you have become so disrespectful." Richard never imagined that his son would have no affection for his relatives at all. He only had business in his eyes. He was so angry that he wanted to slap him on the face. "But he''s an Indian, and I hate him." Charlie didn''t care about his father''s livid face at all, expressing his strong contempt for the Indians. It''s obvious that Charlie is a total racist. "Slap!" There was a crisp slap in the face, which was extraordinarily clear in the quiet room. "You bastard, I didn''t expect a **** like you to come out of our Cole family. I have taught you since I was a child that family is more important than everything else. I didn''t expect you to read yourself as a **** who didn''t recognize your relatives after studying for a few years. Who taught you!" Richard was furious. His family was originally a Jewish family, and Jews are also a discriminated ethnic group in American society. Unexpectedly, his son also began to learn to discriminate against others. Charlie covered his face in disbelief, never thinking that his father would slap him. "You beat your own son for an Indian." Charlie is almost 30 years old. Although he is not married yet, he is already a proper adult. He was slapped by his father at such an age, which is unacceptable both psychologically and physically. , looking at his father with red eyes. He secretly vowed to make John look good, and if he couldn''t do it, he would destroy the business. Let the Brazilian roll as far as he can. Richard looked at his son, whose eyes were flickering with sinister light, and felt even more disappointed. From his expression, he could see that Charlie wanted to take revenge and play tricks, but he couldn''t give him a chance. "I would rather not have a son like you. Since my education is not successful, then from tomorrow onwards, you will go back to your grandfather and study hard. What is family, what is relative, what is family, when will you understand?" Now, you will come back to work in the family company." When Charlie heard that his father wanted to send himself to his grandfather, he immediately became unhappy and jumped up and shouted: "Why!" Now my grandfather bought a farm in the country to support his life, and I dont want to face the cows and sheep every day, and the old man. "Just because I am your father. Do you think I don''t know what you think? I can see what you want to do from your eyes. You don''t even think about it. If you really expose this matter, Does our company still have a good life? Do you think this matter is known by other companies, can our company continue to survive? Can you still enjoy the life of thinking about being rich!" "Now we haven''t produced him yet, so what''s the matter!" "You are so naive, you didn''t produce, but you have the ability to produce. Now it is because of the need of the war that Johnson & Johnson entrusts us with these equipments for production. Once the war is over, do you think we can continue to receive orders from Johnson & Johnson? ? If we want to enter the medical device market, if we dont take advantage of this opportunity now, we will never have another opportunity in the future. Fathers words made Charlie stunned. Unexpectedly, his father was not just for repaying his kindness, but his deeper goal was to enter the field of medical equipment manufacturing. I don''t know if it''s true or not, but at least it made Charlie dispel the thought of stabbing this business out. But Richard was no longer willing to continue talking to his stupid son, so he turned and left, leaving Charlie in place covering his face in a mess in the wind. When Wan Chongxin, on behalf of Global Trade, came to Keer Industrial for negotiation the next day, it was naturally smooth sailing. Especially when Richard knew that Fang Lang''s sales of penicillin equipment for Cole Industries would not be discovered, and he wanted to purchase an additional batch of fertilizer and pesticide manufacturing equipment, he was overjoyed. Direct commitment, not only to provide the manufacturing process of all products, but also to arrange special personnel to provide on-site guidance until qualified products are produced. Therefore, the purchase contract worth six million dollars was signed very quickly. As soon as Fang Lang got out of school, he was directly inspired by the good news! The amount of six million dollars is not a lot, but it is absolutely worthwhile to be able to directly win three important industries with six million dollars. Wan Chongxin came here this time and not only told Fang Lang the good news, but also brought Fang Lang''s uncle Fang Xinshui here. After they had dinner together, they came to the apartment that Wan Chongxin had rented for Fang Xinshui, and Wan Chongxin left. "Lang''er, I didn''t expect you to be a major now, it''s amazing!" Fang Xinshui looked at Fang Lang''s military rank and exclaimed. "I didn''t expect it either. It''s a pity that this major is not easy to be. It''s not as easy as it used to be. After this study is completed, I will go to the battlefield again." "What does it matter? It''s only natural to serve as a soldier and fight a war. If you don''t fight, you won''t have the chance to be promoted so quickly!" Uncle Fang Xinshui didn''t seem to take war seriously at all, and didn''t worry about his nephew''s safety at all, so he slapped his thigh carelessly and said. "It''s not about fighting for ourselves after all. Well, let''s not talk about that. Uncle, do you know why this only made you come to New York?" Fang Lang knew that his uncle didn''t understand what he was thinking, so he didn''t say much, but went straight to the topic. Hearing Fang Lang''s question, Fang Xinshui was still a little worried. After all, he had heard after coming here that the matter had been settled. "I just heard from Ashin that I originally wanted us to come here to get some rare equipment, right! But now that you''ve done it again, then we didn''t come in vain!" Fang Lang looked at the worried uncle in front of him, smiled and said: "Hehe. Why did you come in vain! Since we are here this time, many of our plans will start ahead of schedule!" Although I don''t know what the plan Fang Lang said is, as long as it''s not a waste of time, everything in Brazil has started, and the real estate company he is in charge of has also started operation, but Fang Xinshui really can''t get used to it. Sitting in the office every day at work. So, as soon as he received a telegram from Fang Lang asking him to come to New York, he left what he was doing and flew to New York in a hurry with his younger brother. "Talk to me, I can''t wait, now the factory in Brazil has been integrated, the cigarettes made by our cigarette factory have now opened up the market in Brazil, and even the newspaper office has flourished. It''s just me now What kind of real estate is really meaningless, I just threw it to your father when I came out this time, I am really not suitable for these things." (end of this chapter) Chapter 56: Immigration ideas Chapter 56 Immigration Thoughts Fang Lang could understand Uncle Fang Xinshui''s eagerness. In fact, Fang Lang also wanted to open up the connection with the country as soon as possible. Now the closest connection with the country abroad is obviously the Hongmen of the United States. "Uncle, this time I hope you can contact the American Hongmen in the name of your gang. I don''t know what you think!" Fang Lang nestled comfortably on the sofa, looking at Fang Xinshuidao who was sitting opposite. "Is it the Hongmen that you told me about last time with power all over the world?" Since Fang Lang and Fang Xinshui talked about the history and scale of Hongmen last time, Fang Xinshui has always had a desire to find out about this organization. Unexpectedly, this time Fang Lang would ask him to come forward to directly contact this organization . "But we are such a small gang, will they be too lazy to talk to us!" The more you know about an organization like Hongmen, the more you know how powerful it is, so Fang Xinshui has no idea whether he can meet someone who can call the shots. Seeing his uncle''s expression, Fang Lang knew that the Hongmen he introduced last time was too powerful, which made his uncle feel a little inferior. So he smiled and said: "Why did uncle suddenly become unconfident! We are here to discuss business! We are not asking them to do something, so why would you refuse someone who comes to give you money!" Fang Xinshui looked at Fang Lang''s calm look, and the confidence exuding from his body made him a little dazed for a while. The nephew in front of him made him a little strange, and he couldn''t tell that he was a twenty-year-old young man in front of him. Fang Xinshui admired his nephew''s maturity from the bottom of his heart, and was willing to follow in the footsteps of this junior. That''s why the first time I received Fang Lang''s telegram, I dropped my work without saying a word, and flew straight to New York to meet Fang Lang. "Business? What business can we do with them!" Fang Xinshui knew Fang Lang''s lofty goals, so he was a little puzzled about doing business with the big gang of Hongmen. "You are definitely not needed in formal business! What kind of business can you do between gangs!" Fang Lang smiled and picked up the water on the table and took a sip. Hearing Fang Lang''s answer, Fang Xinshui''s first reaction was the hemp leaf he and Fang Lang were talking about. "Didn''t you let us touch drugs?" Regarding the reaction of his uncle Fang Xinshui, Fang Lang''s head was full of black lines, and he said helplessly: "You don''t think there is no other business among gangsters except drugs!" Fang Xinshui is very familiar with the traditional industries of gangs, after all, he has been in this industry for so many years. "Pornography, gambling, and drugs are the quickest to get money! But we don''t have the resources for this!" Seeing his uncle thinking more and more crookedly, Fang Lang pulled his thoughts back and said: "Uncle, let me tell you this! You are gangsters, but I don''t want you to be gangsters! Do you know what I mean?" "It''s a gangster, but it can''t be a real gangster, what do you mean! You''re all around me!" Fang Xinshui looked bewildered, and couldn''t understand what Fang Lang was talking about. "Do you know why I put you in contact with them?" Uncle Fang Xinshui is still very important in Fang Lang''s plan, so he hopes that his uncle can have his own ideas and ideas, and he doesn''t want him to be careless forever. "It goes without saying, of course you have money to earn!" Since you want to do business, isn''t the purpose simple? So Fang Xinshui blurted out without hesitation. Fang Lang shook his head slightly, looked at his uncle firmly and said. "Making money is only secondary! My main purpose is to immigrate from China to Brazil through their channels." After Fang Xinshui heard Fang Lang''s words, his face was tangled, and he said in a bit of embarrassment: "Gang gang immigrants. You are talking about trafficking people! This is not good! Will you have a son without an **** hole!" Fang Lang slapped his forehead and was almost **** off by his own uncle. "Uncle, you! Me, what should I say! Who said it must be sold! Can''t we open a labor dispatch company to recruit workers in China? Can''t we set up an immigration agency to help Chinese people who want to immigrate understand Brazil? Can''t we open an employment agency to introduce jobs in Brazil to Chinese people?" Seeing Fang Lang''s expression of being defeated by himself, and hearing Fang Lang''s answer, Fang Xinshui suddenly realized, slapped his thigh and said: "Hi! I can understand when you say that. Isn''t this still a regular company?" "We don''t care if they are formal or not. We can do it formally. Our goal is to increase the number of Chinese in Brazil. This time I have a new channel that allows us Chinese to immigrate directly to Rio Grande do Sul. Naturalization. For Chinese with certain financial strength, we can help them buy land and farms in Rio Grande do Sul and help them settle down. For workers who do not have economic strength, we can provide them with jobs by setting up labor-intensive industries in Rio Grande do Sul. For those with professional skills, we can invest in them to help them start a business, and we can also introduce suitable jobs to them. Is not it good? As long as they can settle down and the proportion of our Chinese population increases, we won''t be as statusless as we are now, will we? " Seeing his uncle really didn''t understand the twists and turns, Fang Lang could only tell his thoughts in his heart. Fang Xinshui expressed his approval and understanding of Fang Lang''s thoughts, but he still couldn''t help expressing his doubts. "But if they can make money in this way, don''t we have to pay to death? Isn''t this a loss-making business?" Faced with Fang Xinshui''s question, Fang Lang had to break it up and explain it clearly to him, otherwise, he would be the one to implement it at that time, and if he didn''t know how to operate it himself, there would be a big mess. "Who said that we will lose money, naturalize the rich, buy land, farms, no handling fees? No introduction fees for laborers? Of course they may not be able to pay in the first place, but they can after work Pay it back slowly! Isnt this all income? Of course, how much to collect and how to divide the money, we need to figure it out with Hongmen. Its best to achieve a win-win situation for Hongmen, us and our immigrant compatriots. If its not possible, we dont even have to make money, as long as we can achieve our goals! " Finally, I understood Fang Lang''s work ideas. Since he can achieve his goal and earn money, what else is there to say, just do it, and you can do this kind of thing yourself! Why do you have to cooperate with Hongmen? "I see, can we just do this business directly? Why do you want to cooperate with them!" This matter can indeed be done by himself, but Fang Lang, as a later generation, is very aware of the domestic situation after the devils surrender, and it will not be long before he can immigrate on a large scale, so he must rely on the power of Hongmen. "How many people do we have! If we rely solely on our own strength, we don''t know when we will be able to find enough immigrants." Fang Xinshui finally fully understands the issue of immigration. However, as a Chinese, he is still worried. Even if the proportion of Chinese population in a place reaches a certain scale, who can guarantee that everyone will stand with you? together! After all, a hundred kinds of rice feed a hundred kinds of people. "Okay! But are you really sure that after we put in so much effort, we will definitely get what we want in return?" Actually, Fang Lang is not sure whether the immigrants can be of one mind with him, after all, there are still too many bananas. However, the way I immigrate like this is very different from those so-called banana people who smuggled to the United States by themselves. Besides, I also have plans for the future of the Chinese in Brazil. I can learn from the Japanese in Brazil! Opening Chinese-owned schools in Chinese-populated areas will never make Brazilian Chinese forget their ancestors and their own culture. Of course, this is a later story. Fang Lang also has his own ideas about the current batch of Chinese immigrants. "Uh! Well! I understand what you mean, so we need to conduct pre-job training for all immigrants, and carry out MLM-style brainwashing to make them aware of the historical mission they shoulder. There is no rush, we will hold a training class and arrange a few instructors who have been trained by us on each immigrant ship. It takes almost two months to get from the country to Rio Grande do Sul, so I don''t believe that a group of my own people can''t be washed out. As long as our thoughts are unified, then our actions will definitely be unified. If all of us Chinese are twisted into one rope, our strength will be extremely powerful. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 57: hongmentangkou Chapter 57 Hongmen Tangkou After Fang Lang''s meticulous and patient explanation, Fang Xinshui finally understood Fang Lang''s immigration ideas. Although he didn''t quite understand what Fang Lang said about pyramid schemes and brainwashing, he also knew how he should operate. "Then I understand, where is their hall!" It''s not that Fang Lang doesn''t want to do it himself. In fact, although this training is only a short-term training, it is indeed related to his future life. He dare not relax in the slightest. He wants to continue to grow in the Brazilian army in the future. This kind of professional military academy Learning opportunities must be cherished. Moreover, Fang Lang can''t do everything by himself. If this is the case, he will not be too busy in the future. He only needs to focus on the general direction, and train special people to be responsible for other things. One hero and three helpers, only When everyone''s ability is fully exercised, everyone''s career can be truly successful. "Tomorrow you go directly to a restaurant in Sihai in Chinatown. Their owner is Fang Jinao. As for whether you can meet their owner, it depends on your courage!" For this cooperation with Hongmen, Fang Lang has also considered carefully. After all, if this kind of large-scale immigration takes a formal route, unless it is directly organized by the government, it is basically impossible to reach the scale that Fang Lang needs. . However, the Hongmen organization is not as good as the official ones on the surface, but the actual effect may not be worse than the official ones. After all, the Hongmen organization still has a very strong background in China at this time, and many military and political officials in the country They all have gang backgrounds. So, as long as Hongmen is given enough benefits, Fang Lang''s expectations can definitely be achieved. For the sake of money, the officials and gentlemen of the Kuomintang, let alone organize people to emigrate, it is estimated that when the Kuomintang is defeated, it is not impossible to sell the soldiers for money. Fang Lang is not worried about whether Fang Xinshui can negotiate with Hongmen. Because there are still a few months left, Fang Lang still has time, and failure is the mother of success. If you can''t agree with Hongmen Hall in New York, at worst, change to another hall! There will always be someone who is interested in this business. "Haha, Ah Lang! I may not be as smart as you, but I have the guts to talk about it! Then Uncle Ni, I''m a bear with a heart and a leopard with a guts. Don''t worry! There will be a definite result tomorrow." Fang Xinshui is even less worried. In Fang Xinshui''s impression, gang members are easy to deal with. After all, most of the gangsters are not well-educated, and they have less twists and turns. It is normal for them to take the lead in doing things and to do things for their friends. As for stabbing a friend twice for profit, Fang Xinshui came from a small place and has never encountered it. For tomorrow''s contact with Hongmen, Fang Xinshui was so confident that he almost didn''t swear on his chest. Looking at Fang Xinshui''s confident look, Fang Lang solemnly reminded again: "Uncle, pay attention to safety! The United States is not Brazil, we are not familiar with the place, so we must be careful. If we are not careful, we will be swallowed without bones." Seeing Fang Lang''s seriousness, Fang Xinshui couldn''t help hesitating: "How can we say that we are all Chinese, so it is impossible!" Fang Lang is very satisfied with Fang Xinshui''s hesitation. As long as Fang Xinshui handles it carefully, there should be no danger. After all, they didn''t come here to grab the territory, and everyone has no hatred. As long as they deal with it carefully, there should be no danger to their lives. "Jianghu doesn''t care who you are, if the other party has any other requirements, you can watch and talk about it, but you must remember that we don''t touch drugs, this is the bottom line." After Fang Lang mentioned the red line issue again, Fang Xinshui also said seriously: "Don''t worry! I will prepare well tonight, and tomorrow we will meet the biggest gang of our Chinese!" Early the next morning, Fang Xinshui came directly to Chinatown with six people under his command. First, I walked around Chinatown all morning like a tourist, getting familiar with the terrain. It wasn''t until lunch time that they brought the four of them into a big hotel in the world. Two people did not go in together, but sat down at another nearby Chinese restaurant where they could directly see the Sihai family. After all, he is a newcomer, so be careful and make no mistakes, and leave two people outside to watch the wind to meet him, so as to avoid being caught in the same pot. Fang Xinshui still has this experience in the world. A big hotel in the world, it is said to be a big hotel, but the front door is not particularly big. After opening the door and entering, the lobby on the first floor is less than 200 square meters, and there are not many customers in the restaurant. table. Fang Xinshui and the others had just entered the door when a young man dressed as a clerk approached him enthusiastically and said: "Welcome, are the bosses eating?" Now is the meal time, so Fang Xinshui chose this time to come in to find out the situation first, and said casually: "When you come to the restaurant, you must have dinner! There are five of us, do you have a private room?" The buddy looked up and down a few people, and saw that they were strong, and they didn''t look like good people. So, the left hand made a strange gesture and rested on the right wrist. This is Hongmen pulling the kidnapper, that is, Hongmen bowed in secret words, wanted to find out the identities of several people, and said in his mouth: "Please advise!" This is the Hongmen Three Asking for Advice. Generally, when the two people in the Hongmen do not know each other, they find out whether it is a family etiquette. Generally, one person says: "Ask for advice", the other person says: "Return to ask for advice", and then replies with "" Ask again." Then they said their names according to Hongmen''s code words. Fang Xinshui didn''t look at him at all, he was looking around in the hall. Seeing this, the younger brother beside him lightly touched Fang Xinshui''s arm, signaling Fang Xinshui to take a look. I thought of what Fang Lang had said to him, and knew that it was someone else who was probing him in accordance with the rules of the world. But Fang Lang doesn''t understand code words, and Fang Xinshui doesn''t understand even more! He looked at the guy blankly. When the buddy saw the reaction of Fang Xinshui and others, he understood that the people in front of him were not from the same sect. He also accepted the gesture and said loudly "Okay, five people in the private room upstairs, please!" After finishing speaking, he led the way and led a few people to the private room on the second floor. Entering the private room, Fang Xinshui couldn''t help but wonder: "Brother, don''t mind! Is what you just said a code word for your Hongmen?" Fang Xinshui''s words made the guy''s face change, and his eyes were fixed on Fang Xinshui: "What kind of flag is hoisted on the boat my brother is on, how many dragons are embroidered on the flag, and where are the heads and tails facing?" This made Fang Xinshui even more confused, but looking at the other party''s expression, he also knew that he should not talk nonsense at this time. Maybe they will lie down and go out before the start. Hastily waved his hands and said: "Brother, don''t get me wrong, we are not from Hongmen, we are overseas Chinese in Brazil. This time, I want to discuss business with Mr. Fang, the head of Hongmen Grand Duke''s New York Hall. I don''t know, little brother, can you introduce it for me." Hearing Fang Xinshui''s words, the buddy''s face was still ugly, and after looking at several people repeatedly, he said: "How do you know this is the entrance of Hong Men Tang?" The buddy''s question made Fang Xinshui a little embarrassed, it can''t be said that Fang Lang told him! I can only say: "I''m sorry! Brother, we also inquired about it in Chinatown. Don''t worry, we have no malicious intentions. We really came to talk to your hall master about a business. I hope the little brother can help pass it on." As he spoke, he took out a five-dollar bill and stuffed it into the clerk''s hand. The buddy looked at the dollar in his hand, and then at the expressions of several people. Although Fang Xinshui could tell that Fang Xinshui was not telling the truth, he felt like a few bumpkins, and there seemed to be no malicious intentions. He put the money in his pocket casually and said: "Since you are not friends in Jianghu, please sit down first, and I will inform our hall master. As for whether our hall master is willing to see you, it depends on your luck." Fang Xinshui was worried that Hongmen didn''t pay much attention to himself and the others, so he quickly said: "Thank you brother, please make it clear to your hall master that this is a big business worth several million dollars. I hope your hall master will appreciate it!" The guy was shocked when he heard Fang Xinshui''s words. In this day and age, a business worth several million dollars is a big business. After all, the monthly per capita income in the United States has not yet exceeded a hundred dollars! Looked at Fang Xinshui seriously for a few times, seeing that his face was frank, not seeming to be fake, he couldn''t help saying seriously: "Brother, are you serious? If you frame me in order to meet our hall master, you will see blood at that time!" Fang Lang was not annoyed after hearing what the buddy said, and laughed loudly: "Brother, just don''t worry, if someone on our side talks, spit and nail, he won''t lie to you. A few million dollars is a minimum. If the cooperation is good, tens of millions is not impossible." Seeing his expression, the man knew it was not a joke, so he didn''t hesitate. He pointed to the stool in the private room and said: "Those guys, please sit down for a while, I will report first, I believe there will be results soon." After finishing speaking, he closed the door of the private room and turned to leave. (end of this chapter) Chapter 58: Big business Chapter 58 Big Business Fang Xinshui and the others saw the guy close the door and leave, a brother said: "Brother, is this slang? It feels very compelling! How about we learn it too!" Hearing what his brother said, Fang Xinshui said angrily: "Learn from whom! You teach me?" "Ah! I can''t either!" "Then what are you talking about! This is a slang word inside the gang. If you want to learn it, you have to join their gang. Why do you want to change jobs?" "Don''t, don''t, big brother calm down, I just think it''s fun, I want to learn, but I won''t betray the gang." Soon, footsteps came from outside the door, and several people stood up and looked at the door, only to see the guy who had left push the door and walk in. Fang Xinshui thought it was over, but he heard the guy say: "Our hall master welcomes you! Everyone, please follow me!" It turned out to be a different place to talk! Fang Xinshui and the others had no choice but to get up and follow. The guy brought several people to a living room, the living room was about forty square meters, surrounded by a circle of sofas, and there were several tea tables in front of the sofa. There were two strong men standing behind the door, and four or five strong men were sitting or standing on several sofas in the living room. After a few people came in, the strong men behind the two doors indicated that they needed to be searched. Fang Xinshui understood that this was a routine procedure, so he opened his hands very naturally and let them search. He and others came here to discuss business, not to cheat , so everyone''s weapons are placed on the brothers who are responding outside. After everyone was searched, a man in a gray suit and a top hat said: "Whoever is in charge, follow me in, and the others will rest here." The brothers were reluctant to hear it, and they were about to speak, but Fang Xinshui had expected it, and said directly: "Brothers, don''t be nervous. This is New York, not Brazil. We don''t have enemies here. We''re just here to discuss business. We do whatever we want. You can drink with these Hongmen brothers here. I can go in alone. gone." The members of the Hongmen gang in the living room just smiled and didn''t speak. Obviously, they have seen this kind of situation a lot, and they are no longer surprised by it. "This boss please come inside!" Little Top Hat waved to Xin Shui when the others stopped talking. Fang Xinshui was not polite, he strode up to this man, and walked in along the door he opened. Entering the room, I saw a lean man in his fifties sitting in front of a tea table making Kung Fu tea, and opposite him was a short, fat middle-aged man. The two saw Fang Xinshui enter the door, looked up and down, the thin man said: "Brother, listen to the brothers below, you want to talk to me about business." Seeing that the other party didn''t intend to ask him to sit down, Fang Xinshui stepped forward to pull a chair, sat down and said: "You must be the head of the Hongmen Grand Guild, Fang Jinaofang at the entrance of the New York hall!" The man in the top hat who opened the door for Fang Xinshui saw that Fang Xinshui sat directly on the tea table very impolitely, so he stretched out his hand to pull him up. Fang Jinao, who was on the opposite side, waved his hand to indicate that it was okay, so he stepped back and leaned against the door. "Brother''s tone doesn''t look like a serious businessman! I don''t know if it''s convenient to reveal which way you''re on?" Hall Master Fang looked at Fang Xinshuidao with great interest. "Hi! Hall Master Fang has sharp eyes. I was a businessman for a while ago. I really can''t stand this cramped situation. I''m still as happy as I am now! My name is Fang Xinshui. It''s hard to say, we were a family five hundred years ago. What! Hehe" As he spoke, he searched for the teacups on the tea table by himself, looking like he was going to make tea by himself. Fang Jinao, who was on the opposite side, saw Fang Xinshui''s movements, smiled slightly, and handed a cup of tea to Fang Xinshui with a tong. That little expression, clearly telling everyone, this is not enough to get between the teeth! The corners of Fang Jin''ao''s eyes couldn''t help twitching, thinking where did such a hob meat pop out! Looked at the short, fat, middle-aged man opposite, and looked at Fang Xinshui quietly without speaking. Fang Xinshui saw that the other party didn''t refill tea for him, and he didn''t open his mouth, so he just looked at him quietly. Knowing that the other party is waiting for him to reveal his identity, he didn''t hide it, so he smiled and said: "I''m from Sao Paulo, Brazil, where I organized a small Chinese gang called Xinshui Gang. I came here this time to negotiate a big deal with Hongmen!" When Fang Jinao heard that he was the leader of a small gang from a small place, he felt bored. Brazil is a place where no **** is heard, and he has never heard of it. There is no big business that can be done. Dont think its strange if you havent heard of Brazil. First of all, education in this era is not popular, and many Americans are very lacking in geographical knowledge. After all, except for a few developed countries in Europe and the United States, American people can arouse their interest. Other American countries, those who know about Mexico are all well-informed. The instinct of human nature determines that people will only remember those who are better than themselves or equal to themselves! As for those who are worse than themselves, they can be directly assigned to them. Secondly, there is no Internet in this era, and the speed of information dissemination is not fast. Except for coffee raw materials, Brazil is relatively famous among American coffee manufacturers, and there are no other products that are well-known in the United States. Therefore, everyone has never heard of it. strangeness. "Oh! I don''t know what business Mr. Fang wants to talk to us about!" The chunky middle-aged man on one side spoke. "We have a labor dispatch company in Brazil, and we want to recruit some workers from our hometown to work. If someone wants to immigrate to Brazil to buy a property, we can also provide some help." Seeing Fang Jinao''s expression of lack of interest, Fang Xinshui said directly. "This is the tens of millions of big business you said, do you have any misunderstanding about the word big!" Fang Jinao looked at Fang Xinshui speechlessly, and then said. Fang Xinshui saw the speechless expression on the other party''s face, as if he lacked interest. I couldn''t help but think, are the American gangsters so rich? A business worth tens of millions is not considered a big business, is it? unconsciously said: "Is a business with tens of millions still small?" "Of course a business worth tens of millions is not small, but if you just hire some workers to work, you dare to say that it''s a business worth tens of millions! You''re here to entertain us, right?" Fang Jinao''s tone at this time was already faintly angry, and he looked at Fang Xinshuidao with cold eyes. Hearing what Fang Jinao said, Fang Xinshui laughed and said: "Master Fang, pattern, we need pattern. If we just come here to recruit thousands of people, do I need to come to you? Although recruiting a single person may not be a big business. However, if we need Tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, or even millions of people? Is this still a small business?" Fang Xinshui''s words left several people dumbfounded. "Is Boss Fang serious? Do you know what you are talking about? What industry do you have in Brazil that requires tens of thousands of people!" "Hey. Of course I am serious. As for those industries that need so many people, you don''t have to worry. We are a labor dispatch company. As long as you can get so many people, we will naturally digest them." Seeing that several people were finally moved by him, Fang Xinshui said proudly. Fang Jinao saw Fang Xinshui''s tone so loud, and asked: "I don''t know what kind of person you want, a man or a woman!" Fang Xinshui said that his mouth was dry, no matter how many people were there, he poured himself another cup of tea and said: "No limit, as long as they are healthy Chinese, men, women, old and young, all will be accepted. It is best for the whole family." "How much does each of you pay?" "I don''t know how much money your hall needs?" The chunky middle-aged man who rarely spoke next to him said: "How about five hundred dollars?" Hearing the offer from the other party, Fang Xinshui was stunned, five hundred dollars per person, who are the people you hired! It''s so valuable, obviously the two people''s understanding of this matter is biased, Fang Xinshui said with some doubts: "Boss, are you mistaken? We just need to recruit workers and farmers. What kind of high-tech talents are you at this price!" The middle-aged man took it for granted: "That''s right! We ship one person to the United States for this price!" Hearing what the other party said, Fang Xinshui understood what he meant, and it seemed that he was to blame for not making it clear, so he laughed to relieve his embarrassment and said: "Haha. I understand. You have calculated the freight! Don''t worry, we don''t need you to help us transport. We have our own ships. You only need to organize the personnel in the country. We will hand over at the dock. As long as there is enough for one ship, we will Just hand over the money and deliver the goods. (end of this chapter) Chapter 59: negotiation Chapter 59 Negotiation Fang Xinshui''s words stunned several people, and they all looked at him like a fool. After a while, Fang Jinao opened his mouth and said: "If you organize people in China, you should find the Hongmen organization in China! Why are you looking for us?" "But I don''t know anyone in China!" The reason is very strong and unassailable. Looking at Fang Xinshui with a frank face, Fang Jinao was a little speechless, and said with a self-deprecating smile: "It seems that the little brother wants to give me money to spend! Then I don''t know, how much is each little brother willing to give as an introduction fee?" Fang Xinshui thought of Fang Lang''s explanation, and couldn''t help but carefully probed: "How about five dollars each!" Actually, Fang Xinshuis price in mind is to give ten dollars to each person he introduces. But do business! How can you directly quote your reserve price! No matter what, you have to give the other party a room to bargain! A few people heard it, such a small amount of money, labor is not enough! Isn''t this a joke? The chunky middle-aged man felt that Fang Xinshui was playing with them, so he stood up abruptly and scolded angrily: "You sent the beggar!" Fang Jinao is the head of the hall after all, the city is still much deeper, and he continued to make tea calmly, as if it had nothing to do with him. He just glanced at Fang Xinshui quietly, waiting for his next words. Fang Xinshui had long been concerned in his heart, so he took a sip of tea calmly and said: "Don''t be angry, just listen to me. We don''t care how people come here. We don''t care whether they are cheated or kidnapped, or immigrated with money. We don''t care even if you sell them a boat ticket. We only need people. We pay by the head on board our ship. Do you understand me?" After hearing this, several people understood Fang Xinshui''s meaning. In this way, they can rely on their own abilities in the country. Even if they call the national army directly and send people from a village directly to the boat, they will be paid for it! As for the rest after collecting the money, it''s none of their business. Fang Jinao looked at Fang Xinshuidao again with profound eyes: "Oh! Are you not afraid that they will ask you to refund your money on the ship?" After all, as the receiver, they must accept people''s censure. But Fang Xinshui said with a rascal expression on his face: "Look at what you said. We haven''t collected their money. Whoever collects it will go to whom! The ship belongs to the transportation company. If they don''t want to take the ship, they can jump off it. However, we will and are willing to go with us People sign a formal labor dispatch contract. The interests of both parties are guaranteed, after all, we are a formal company. The short, fat middle-aged man still didn''t understand what Fang Xinshui''s purpose was for doing this, and said with a full face of doubts: "Then aren''t you doing business with money?" Fang Xinshui smiled triumphantly and said: "Hey. How can they post money? After they earn their wages, they must pay us a part of the monthly handling fee! Otherwise, wouldn''t we be able to open a philanthropic hall?" Several people instantly understood Fang Xinshui''s plan. They thought that Fang Xinshui would directly treat them as illegal laborers and squeeze them desperately. They would charge six or seven dollars for ten dollars a month, and they would charge them for ten or eight years if they had a dark heart, plus some interest. Then this is simply an astronomical figure! It made their hearts start to move. However, if you think about it, Fang Xinshui may have already contacted the black kiln factory, and people can work when they arrive. If they do this, so many people can''t arrange work immediately, and they can directly eat up the mouth. After the place, you can play like this! Since the other party can make so much money, it is definitely not enough to give yourself five dollars! The chunky man said: "But five dollars a person is still too little, how about ten dollars!" It seems that this short and fat man is in charge of the steward of this big money source, otherwise, he wouldn''t be the one who talks about it every time money is involved. Hearing his words, Fang Xinshui said helplessly: "Brother, don''t you understand? You can make a lot of money from them! We are small heads here." Humpty Humpty has a good reason too. "Then there will definitely be some poor people who can''t afford to give us! Aren''t you afraid that there won''t be enough people?" Seeing what the other party said made sense, Fang Xinshui could only give way: "Okay! That''s six dollars per person! It can''t be higher. We have invested a lot. If there are 10,000 people, we will have to pay 60,000 dollars." "My brother! Six dollars a person, you can''t recruit 10,000 people." After a lot of bargaining with several people, it was finally determined that eight dollars per person. It can be regarded as the business can be carried out. According to what Fang Xinshui said, Fang Jinao had to look at him with admiration. After all, he can accept so many labor forces at one time, but it is very different from the small gang he thought! "Brother! Unexpectedly, your strength is not small! I don''t know when this business will start!" Now that the general direction has been discussed, there is no need to worry about the rest, you can communicate slowly! So Fang Xinshui said straightforwardly: "I will directly report the results of this negotiation when I go back. We also need to do some preparatory work. Once the little devil surrenders and the air route is clear, our business will officially begin." Hearing Fang Lang mention the little devil, the pudgy middle-aged man remembered that the domestic ports are still occupied by the little devil! Talking about it for so long now seems to be talking about loneliness! "That''s right! TMD, the little devils are still occupying the coastline now! We''ve been talking here for a while!" Fang Xinshui smiled confidently and said: "How can it be useless! Of course the business must be discussed first! Make preparations early, and our ship will dock as soon as the little devil surrenders. It would be great to have a direct and seamless connection." Fang Jinao heard that Fang Xinshui said that the little devil would surrender, so he couldn''t help but take a closer look at Fang Xinshui again: "How do you know, the little devil will surrender, and the fight is going on now! I don''t know when the fight will last!" This is all judgment from where Fang Lang heard it. Fang Xinshui is just plagiarizing, but Fang Xinshui believes that Fang Lang must have some inside information, so he smiled and said mysteriously: "Hey. If the bosses believe me, they should have prepared early. I have already received the news that the small book won''t last until September." Unexpectedly, Fang Xinshui would give a specific time, which made Fang Jin Ao Teng stand up suddenly, and said eagerly: "This statement is true, is the news reliable?" I dont blame Fang Jinao for being so shocked. How can I say that the Hongmen in this period also spared no effort to support the country. If it is true what Fang Xinshui said, it is not to say it is exciting and good news. If this is true, then with such a large upfront investment, there must be some profit! At this time, whoever has the upper hand will get more benefits! Our Mr. Fang Xinshui smiled confidently and said with an unpredictable smile: "It''s not true, don''t you know when the time comes? Anyway, you won''t suffer if you do some preparations in advance, right?" As for Fang Xinshui''s performance, Fang Jinao, as an old Jianghu, has his own judgment. He believes that Fang Xinshui must have his own basis for saying this. Fang Jinao didn''t know where this basis came from, but it must be the top allied forces. Thinking that they could easily eat tens of thousands of laborers, he couldn''t help but start to wonder if he had an official background. Regardless of whether it is true or not, Fang Jinao has decided to establish a good relationship with Fang Xinshui. Therefore, he directly opened the mouth and said: "Haha. It seems that my brother''s background is very deep! Since this is the case, then we will take this risk, and I will contact my colleagues in China to start preparations." Fang Xinshui didn''t know what Fang Jinao was thinking in front of him, and of course he was very happy to see the other party said that he would start contacting his fellow students in China now. "Then thank Hall Master Fang for his trust, haha." Fang Jinao glanced at the clock by the wall. It was already past two o''clock in the afternoon. Thinking that Fang Xinshui and the others hadn''t eaten yet, he got up enthusiastically and said: "I''m sorry brother, the reception was not good today, and my brothers were delayed from eating. I asked my brothers to prepare two tables of banquets. We chatted while eating and didn''t get drunk." Now that the most important things have been negotiated, Fang Xinshui will naturally not refuse. He just wants to ask Fang Jinao about gang affairs! "Then I''m not being polite! I''m going to try to see if the Chinese food in New York''s Chinatown is authentic." Actually, Fang Xinshuis wife is a white Brazilian. Where can I eat Chinese food at home? At most, I can still see some Chinese food when I go back to my parents house. It is nonsense to expect him to be able to judge whether the Chinese food is authentic or not. But Fang Jinao didn''t know! Patted his chest and assured Fang Xinshui: "Don''t worry, brother, our chefs are all from China, and today we guarantee that you will have the authentic taste of your hometown." (end of this chapter) Chapter 60: receiving warships Chapter 60 Receiving Warships By the time Fang Xinshui returned to the apartment, it was already past eight o''clock in the evening. Yes, he came back after dinner! Fang Lang thought something serious happened to his uncle, and saw him being carried back drunk. After asking the brothers around me again, I found out that the matter was settled, but the specific situation is not clear, and I will not know until Fang Xinshui wakes up. Fang Lang is not in a hurry. So, I told him to be safe, and went straight back to my dormitory. Fang Lang is going to seize the time to design containers and container ships and apply for patents. He will start experimental manufacturing directly after the shipyard is registered. It''s a pity that although I am an old seaman, I know very well what the various parts of the container ship are like and how they work, but I don''t know how to draw pictures! There is no way to turn them into drawings. Fortunately, on the second night, Wan Chongxin brought good news. Although he hadn''t found a real ship designer for his shipyard, he still recruited five engineers who had experience in ship manufacturing and drawing. In the following time, after class every day, Fang Lang either went to the company to guide the drawing, or interviewed the managers of the new company with Wan Chongxin. As for Fang Xinshui, after reporting the results of his negotiations, he was arranged to go to Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, to make a stand! For this reason, Fang Lang also specifically called Colonel Parisi, asking for help in contacting his younger brother who worked at the Immigration Bureau. In order to allow Fang Xinshui to open up the situation in Rio Grande do Sul, Fang Lang directly promised to invest in the construction of pharmaceutical, pesticide and fertilizer plants in Porto Alegre, the capital of Rio Grande do Sul, and will basically purchase them in the United States this time. Machinery and equipment shipped directly to Porto Alegre. So Fangxinshui must open up the situation in Rio Grande do Sul in advance, and use large-scale purchases of agricultural land and industrial land to accommodate the upcoming wave of immigrants. Finally, about a week later, Wan Chongxin found Fang Lang, who had just finished class and was about to continue to go to the company to design the container ship, and informed him that the ship had arrived at the port, and all the equipment purchased from the Cole family had arrived at the port. Wan Chongxin said with relief: "Boss, these devices will start shipping tonight, do you want to go to the site to confirm it yourself?" After all, the penicillin production line was successfully obtained, and the transport ship also successfully passed the blockade and came to New York. "Is the engineer who installed the equipment ready?" Fang Lang is most concerned about the software aspect. After all, without these engineers, these devices are worthless. "Everything is ready! Cole has arranged for 30 people to set off with the ship this time, and will return only after ensuring that all products can be produced normally." "There is no accident!" Wan Chongxin understands what Fang Lang means. This batch of equipment is very sensitive. If several major pharmaceutical giants know about it and intercept it in advance, it will make Global Trade very passive. "For the time being, except for a few of us who know that there is penicillin manufacturing equipment, no one else knows. Our customs declaration is also a manufacturing equipment for pesticides and fertilizers, and we have not encountered any obstacles." Fang Lang was very grateful to Mrs. Clark for successfully completing the task this time. Judging from what he learned later, this batch of equipment is indeed not so easy to get. "That''s good. It seems that I have to take some time to thank Mrs. Clark. You remember to keep in close contact with Cole. We will buy a lot of basic industrial equipment from their company in the future." "No problem, this time we are trading with Mr. Richard Cole, he is the chairman of Cole, and I have established a good personal friendship with him." Fang Lang is very aware of the relationship between Mrs. Clark and Mr. Cole. The reason why Mr. Cole was able to take such a big risk to complete this transaction this time is because of Mrs. Clark''s face. Fang Lang will definitely remember this favor, but with his relationship with John, he doesn''t need to use money and the like to tarnish this relationship too deliberately. Although the main credit for this transaction does not belong to Wan Chongxin, as a specific executor, there is hard work without credit, and Fang Lang must express it. "I did a good job. I will hurry up and finish the design of the container and container ship during this period. We will try to sort out the relevant patents and submit the application before I return to Italy. Recently, the time is tight and the tasks are heavy. Thank you for working overtime with me. I will give you bonuses when the work is over." Wan Chongxin heard that there is a bonus to get! Naturally, I am very happy. "Thank you boss!" In this way, everything is proceeding in an orderly manner according to the original plan, and Fang Lang won the award certificate issued by the military academy with the best grade in the training class of the West Point Military Academy. Originally, Fang Lang thought that after his studies, he would fly back to Italy again to receive the warship. However, after the graduation ceremony, he was told that because the US Navy dispatched a large number of warships to the Pacific battlefield to participate in the Battle of Iwo Jima, the **** fleet on the Atlantic route was insufficient. According to the order of the Atlantic Theater Command, the trainees in this period will directly start the **** mission after receiving the warship in New York. All the crew members are already in place, and the combat missions will begin after the delivery of the warship. "Boss, is this really our new ship!" Della Torre next to him touched the brand-new warship excitedly, as if he still couldn''t believe it. It was completely different from the destroyer he served in the past. I dont know when de la Torre started to learn from Wan Chongxin and the others, and called the boss Fang Lang. When Fang Lang asked him, he said confidently that it was you who paid me the salary, you are not my boss, who is me Boss, Fang Lang didn''t object. "That''s right, this is our next combat position! Are all the crew members in their positions?" Fang Lang is also excited at this moment, this is a destroyer! As a sailor in my previous life, I dreamed of boarding a warship to experience it, and now my dream has come true, not to mention this is my own warship, who can not be excited about such a big toy? "Boss, don''t worry! The brothers have found their positions step by step. I don''t know how long it will take us to get familiar with the equipment this time." Speaking of work, De La Torre is still very serious. Fang Lang basically doesn''t need to worry about many things on the ship, and he will take care of them in an orderly manner. Hearing what de la Torre said, Fang Lang smiled wryly, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Old Germany! This time we don''t have time to get in touch! The order I just received was the morning of the day after tomorrow, and we will be incorporated into the **** fleet with four other destroyers and a supply ship and set off! The commander-in-chief of the fleet this time is Lieutenant Colonel Becky of the US Navy, and the flagship is also a Fletcher-class destroyer named Callaghan. The other destroyers were driven by our classmates, one old and four new, it was a bit of fun. " "What, there is no running-in time at all, isn''t this a joke! This is the navy, and it doesn''t take more than half a year. Many things on the warship are unclear!" Della Torre is an old navy, and he knows very well that a group of novices driving a new ship to directly perform such a dangerous mission is simply an international joke, and it is no different from sending to death. "Yes, you heard it right, the same is true for the other four new ships, so I said we had a lot of fun!" Of course Fang Lang is also very aware of the dangerous situation he is facing, but it is a time of war, and it is not uncommon for him to be thrown on the battlefield without any training. Although I didn''t expect that even high-tech arms such as the navy had become this situation, but this was an order, and Fang Lang could not resist. "My God! God bless!" Della Torre directly mentioned his God, hoping to bless him, but unfortunately Fang Lang never believed in God, he was confident in his hands and mind. But Fang Lang will not prevent other people from praying to God, and, in an emergency, he will also pray to the gods and Buddhas. This is a kind of heart comfort. (end of this chapter) Chapter 61: departure escort Chapter 61 Departure Escort There are two captain''s cabins on the Fletcher-class destroyer. One is located in the front deck room. It is very spacious and is the captain''s usual living room. It is equipped with a single bed, combined desk, wall-mounted bookshelf, ventilation fan, etc. There is also a lounge at the rear of the bridge for the captain to rest between battles or on duty. At this time, in the captain''s living room, Fang Lang and de la Torre had serious faces. "Time is tight, we must form combat power as soon as possible, Lao Lei, do you have any good suggestions?" De La Torre also felt very embarrassed when he heard Fang Lang''s question. The current situation is that although everyone has studied on other ships of the same type for more than a month, the navy does not get familiar with it quickly after a month. For the hands-on, everyone has only learned a little bit, and it is far from the real understanding. "It seems that we can only take advantage of the time before departure to get familiar with it." "Familiarity with the equipment is not enough. We need to use the form of actual combat drills to let everyone know what they should do and how to do it in the event of a battle! Let''s do this! Old Germany, the main enemy our destroyer faces is three In this regard, the enemy''s aircraft are the first, followed by the enemy''s submarines, and finally the enemy''s surface ships. Our main task now is to escort, and there is very little chance of encountering the surface ships of the Axis powers. Our enemies mainly come from the sky and the bottom of the sea. So I need you to organize everyone today to formulate detailed procedures for dealing with the enemy under what circumstances and what kind of enemy we encounter, so that every crew member can participate in the discussion, and use their own brains to know what they should do and why. Do, is there a better way to improve efficiency. Starting tomorrow, we will conduct drills that are close to actual combat throughout the process. Dont be afraid of making mistakes. After each drill, we will hold a summary meeting to find our mistakes and improve next time. After the official departure, we will have at least three such drills every day, one in the morning, one in the afternoon, and one in the evening. Can it be done? " Fang Lang''s words made de la Torre''s eyes shine. This is indeed a good way to improve combat effectiveness. "Boss, your idea is good! I''ll go back and organize everyone to implement it." As soon as he said that, he was about to get up and start to execute the order. Fang Lang stopped him quickly, walking around the room, and said: "Drills alone are not enough. In this way, link the results of the drills with our allowances, set a standard for each process, reward the best crew members and teams that can complete in the shortest time, and punish poor ones. , such as cleaning toilets, washing decks, and washing socks for excellent comrades in arms. We also need to make a mobile red flag to commend outstanding teams and create an atmosphere of competition. Wait a moment! Our current crew members are not from the same position and sleep in the same cabin! " Della Torre was amazed at Fang Lang''s whimsy! Hearing Fang Lang''s question suddenly, he said in confusion: "Yes! Everyone is together to facilitate common learning and communication!" "No, you will go back immediately and readjust the cabins of all the crew members. You cannot let people in the same position live together, and try to spread them out as much as possible." Looking at Fang Lang''s serious expression, de la Torre looked confused. Why, everyone has always lived together! "Ah! Why is this?" Hearing de la Torre''s question, Fang Lang couldn''t help but secretly sighed. Brazil really is a navy that has never experienced actual combat! This kind of detail is all knowledge that is exchanged for life. "Because people in the same position live together, if their cabins are hit by the enemy, there will be no one on our ship who can replace them. The navy is a highly specialized arm, and some positions cannot be replaced. Its not something we can afford. Della Torre heard, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, he nodded quickly and said: "I understand, I will arrange it right away, I don''t know if you have any other orders." Fang Lang had no other thoughts for a while, so he could only watch while walking. "That''s all for the time being, let''s hurry up and prepare! Remember to ask the logistics to replenish ammunition and supplies as soon as possible." The busy time always flies, and the time soon came to the departure time of the fleet. This time, the **** fleet only had five destroyers and one supply ship, but they had to protect more than 50 ships of the Victory Ship across the Atlantic Ocean. , to the UK. Looking at the densely packed freighters on the sea outside New York Harbor, Fang Lang was both nervous and excited. "House! This is the flagship of the fleet, the Callaghan. This is Lieutenant Colonel Becky. Please reply!" A call from Lieutenant Colonel Becky, the commander-in-chief of the fleet, came from the bridge communicator. Fang Lang went to pick up the phone and replied loudly: "Lieutenant Colonel Becky, I am Fang Lang, captain of the USS House." House is the name of the first new destroyer determined by the Brazilian Navy according to the naming rules of the Navy. "Major Fang, this time your ship and HMS Harry of the Royal Navy will be responsible for the safety of the left side of the fleet. Please maintain formation and ensure the course. Are you clear!" Lieutenant Colonel''s words made Fang Lang stunned, is it true that friends don''t get together! As far as he knew, the captain of the HMS Harry was Lieutenant Commander Reinhardt of the British Navy who often pointed fingers at him among his fellow students. It was said that he was a son of an aristocratic naval family, and he was extremely proud. But now that they are on the battlefield, no matter what the original relationship is, the two on the same front must advance and retreat together. Fang Lang replied loudly: "Understood, sir, our ship will be in charge of the left defense line of the fleet together with the Harry!" After the call was over, Fang Lang began to direct the ship to shift to the left line of defense. As soon as he reached the left line of defense, Fang Lang received a communication request from the Harry. "House, this is Captain Reinhardt of the Harry. I am now commanding the left line of defense. Please maintain formation." Fang Lang was taken aback when he heard what the other party said. What the hell, we are all under the command of Lieutenant Colonel Becky. Where did you come from? But thinking about the character of the other party, this proud British nobleman probably looks down on Lieutenant Colonel Becky, the commander-in-chief of the fleet. After all, Yankees are all upstarts in the eyes of the British! But don''t think about it, how arrogant you must be for a novice captain to want to be a commander if you have a few pounds and a few taels! Fang Lang couldn''t help but began to worry about the upcoming voyage, this arrogant guy must not make any fools! But on the same line of defense, since others want to pretend to be aggressive, Fang Lang doesn''t bother to argue with this kind of idiot, and he will definitely accept the command of Lieutenant Colonel Becky when the real battle starts. How to say that others are also actual commanders, and besides, they are also captains who have participated in many actual battles. They are better than you, a fledgling student soldier! Fang Lang didn''t want to talk nonsense with him, so he just said "Got it!" and ended the communication. At this time, Major Reinhardt on the Harry said with a dissatisfied face: "This damned Brazilian soil turtle is so rude. He should be honored to accept the command of the noble Royal Navy of the British Empire. I must make him look good." The naval officers and soldiers around them also looked dissatisfied. After all, the British Empire is a naval power, while the Brazilian Navy is a small role that has never been heard of. The voyage was actually relatively safe in the few days after leaving New York, because the air supremacy was in the hands of the United States. Therefore, on the House, every day was an unshakable actual combat drill. The soldiers were tossed to the death and exhausted. However, the result is also obvious. The progress of the fighters is visible to the naked eye, and the reaction time is getting shorter and shorter. And Major Reinhardt of the Harry saw Fang Lang''s warship in the telescope, and often changed lanes suddenly, and the personnel ran around. At first, he thought he had found the enemy''s trace, so he was very nervous, and ordered his warship to do the same. Began to turn in the direction of the warship. As a result, nothing was found, and no notification was received from Fang Lang. Later, when he learned that it was after an actual combat drill, Reinhardt was so angry that he cursed. After learning that Fang Lang and the others practiced three times a day, he even scolded Fang Lang for not knowing how to cherish the soldiers. The British naval officers and soldiers on the Harry were also worried, for fear that Reinhardt would learn from Fang Lang, and they would have a bad life. Time passed like this bit by bit for five days, and the fleet was finally about to sail out of the combat radius of the US Air Force, and the next time would be for the **** fleet to face the German submarines. The atmosphere in the fleet also began to become tense. Only the House was conducting actual combat drills from time to time. The soldiers simply didn''t have the energy to pay attention to the so-called tense atmosphere, because the time was all taken up, and there was no time to think about other things. (end of this chapter) Chapter 62: naval battle one Chapter 62 Naval Battle I As the commander of the House, Fang Lang knew very well that the warship would face a real test in the next few days, so he also notified the crew to cancel the night drill, be vigilant, and be ready to deal with sudden attacks by German submarines at any time. The first day was spent very peacefully, and the crew members were very happy to save one drill, and the soldiers who were not on night duty could finally sleep soundly. The actual combat exercise in the morning of the second day had just ended. Fang Lang was eating a hearty lunch in the lounge of the nautical bridge when he heard the sonar soldiers and said doubtfully: "Sir, I heard a strange noise just now, but I''m not sure." Fang Lang stood up suddenly, followed the swaying hull, strode into the sonar room and said: "What sound do you hear?" Seeing Fang Lang coming in, the sonar soldiers were a little nervous, fearing that they were nervous and misreported the military situation. Said in an uncertain tone: "Sir, I''m not sure, the speed of the boat is fast, I feel like the sound of a water glass falling to the ground." Fang Lang didn''t know if it was the reason for his rebirth. His sixth sense became very keen. When he heard the report from the sonar soldiers, the alarm bells rang in his heart, and he immediately said to the cab: "The boatswain sounded the combat alarm, notified the whole ship to be on alert, reduced the speed, advanced the cruise speed, and set the speed to 22 knots. Note that this is not a drill, this is not a drill, the combat situation center, this is the bridge, and I am Fang Lang , The sonar found a suspected German submarine, see if you can find anomalies on your surface radar." Soon you heard the voice of de la Torre on the communicator: "Sir, the radar has not detected any abnormalities for the time being!" The driver announced loudly: "Sir, the speed has dropped to 22 knots and has reached the sonar speed." Fang Lang confirmed to the sonar operator again: "Can you determine the direction of the sound?" Seeing that the captain attached so much importance to it, the sonar soldiers had to get serious no matter whether it was true or not. The most important thing is that he felt that he should have heard correctly. "The commander''s position is 036, two nautical miles away." Fang Lang silently calculated in his heart, and said: "Left rudder 30, weave forward." A reply came from the cab: "Understood! Left rudder 30, weave forward." Immediately afterwards, he began to feel that the warship began to turn, and Fang Lang came to the cab to pick up the radio channel: "The Callaghan, this is the House, found a suspected German submarine target, bearing 036, two nautical miles away, our ship will go to confirm, over." Immediately after the radio received a reply: "Haus, received by Callaghan, suspected German submarine target, bearing 036, two nautical miles away, attack allowed, pay attention to safety!" Since the command ship allows him to attack, he is not welcome, but even if the commander does not allow it, he will consider throwing two depth charges to test the waters. "House received!" Although the sonar soldiers were not sure about this target at first, Fang Lang''s sixth sense told him that there were fish underwater, so he ordered the entire ship to be on alert without hesitation. "Sonar, can you hear the propeller?" The sonar soldiers were very nervous at this time, because apart from the previous abnormal noise, they did not hear any abnormal noise behind. "Sir, the effect of the hydrophone is very weak, and the sound of the propeller cannot be heard. Could it be that I heard it wrong!" Seeing that the sonar soldier was not confident, Fang Lang patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said: "It doesn''t matter, whether it''s right or wrong, don''t we know if we try it! Be confident, I believe in you, and don''t blame you if you make mistakes." Turn your head and press the in-ship communicator again: "Combat Information Center, I am Fang Lang, did the surface radar find any abnormalities?" Soon the voice of De La Torre came from the communicator: "Sir, there is no abnormality found on the water surface." Fang Lang walked out of the bridge, raised his binoculars and looked at the sea on the left side of the warship. The signal soldier beside him handed over a coat. Fang Lang didn''t take it, but carefully observed the sea on the left front. The temperature in the northern hemisphere in mid-April is only ten degrees. The sea breeze today is at least level six, and it is a bit cold on people. The waves are about four meters high and the waves are rough. Fortunately, there is no rain in the sky, so the line of sight is still good. Unfortunately, the ups and downs The waves made Fang Lang''s eyes search for nothing. After watching for about two minutes, Fang Lang returned to the bridge and ordered: "All lookout posts focus on searching one square nautical mile in front of the left, depth charges are prepared, medium depth. Let''s see if we can force him out." But just after Fang Lang gave the order, he heard the radio operator hand over the communicator and say: "Sir, Harry communication request." Fang Lang didn''t think too much, picked up the communicator and said: "Harry, this is House, please tell me!" Soon Fang Lang heard Reinhardt''s voice coming from inside; "House, I am Captain Reinhardt of the Harry. We have searched and confirmed for you. There is no abnormality in the target area. Please return to the team immediately and maintain the **** formation." Fang Lang had a thousand muddy horses galloping past in Fang Lang''s heart, and blurted out a national curse: "idolt!" Fortunately, the other party does not understand the art of language with a history of five thousand years. Asked suspiciously: "House, I am Reinhardt, the commander on the left side of the **** fleet. I order you to give up the search and return to the fleet quickly to protect the transport fleet. Please reply." Fang Lang didn''t bother to talk to him, picked up the communicator and said: "What''s the situation? It''s time for battle. What''s wrong with the communicator? It''s all noise. Call the mechanic to come and have a look." After finishing speaking, he hung up the communicator without paying attention, as if nothing happened, and the officers and soldiers on the bridge all looked at him, not knowing what happened. At this time on the Harry, Reinhardt looked blank. What''s going on? Is there a problem with the radio? I can hear his voice! The adjutant next to him asked: "Sir, what''s wrong!" Reinhardt also said with a look of doubt: "They said the radio was down and they couldn''t hear me, but it was fine just now?" After thinking about it, the adjutant next to him said weakly: "Sir, did the other party say that on purpose!" Hearing the adjutant''s words, Reinhardt also reacted, jumped angrily, and cursed loudly: "Damn yellow-skinned monkey, this Brazilian soil turtle, dare to ignore me, you wait for me, I will make you pay the price." After finishing speaking, he ordered loudly: "Left full rudder, bearing 035, let''s lean in, you bastard, I must teach you a lesson!" Then the Harry turned left and turned rapidly, and the House galloped away. What Reinhardt didn''t know was that at a depth of 90 meters underwater on the House, a German submarine was keeping everyone silent. Everyone was holding their breath, not daring to make any sound. Captain Schreider did not expect this warship to be so alert. As the captain of the U441 submarine of the German Navy Submarine Force, he has experienced many battles. He has sunk as many as five warships, and even more transport ships. More than twenty ships. Originally, this time he randomly found a place on the Atlantic route to try his luck. Unexpectedly, the luck was so good that it broke the watch. Just as I was about to take a change of breath on the surface of Shanghai, I saw a group of huge transport fleets in the periscope. Schrader knew he was rich! Immediately following the wolf pack tactics of the German Navy, they began to dive, preparing to follow the big fish, and notified the wolves by radio to hunt in front of the fleet route. It''s a pity that people are not as good as heaven, the entire fleet has passed more than half of his head, and no one has noticed anything unusual. In the end, because a soldier accidentally got up, he knocked off the water glass in the hands of his comrades behind him, "Boom "Sound. Everyone no longer dared to make any moves. Because of this abnormal sound, a destroyer immediately began to turn and approached directly above their heads. All the crew members were so frightened that they didn''t dare to move, for fear of making any noise again and attracting the other party''s attention, they would be finished. After all, the submarine is an assassin in the dark. If the submarine is found by the destroyer, it will be in big trouble. Let alone whether it can be beaten, the speed will be a lot worse. Don''t talk about fighting, you can''t even run. However, the destroyer has already started to circle above their heads, and now they can only gamble, after all, they are in a state of silence now, and it is better to be still than to move. While they were waiting nervously, the destroyer above them suddenly heard the sound of objects falling into the water "boom, boom, boom, boom", and Schrader''s face changed drastically. Shouted: "Depth charge, collision alarm, everyone be careful!" (end of this chapter) Chapter 63: naval battle two Chapter 63 Naval Battle II Actually, Fang Lang at this time was actually very helpless, thinking that it was a pity that the sonar effect in this period could only hear the obvious sound of the seabed, and he could not directly illuminate the target area through active sonar to determine the identity of the target. Unlike the advanced sonar in the later stage, where is it so troublesome, a direct sonar irradiation can make the opponent''s shape outline appear on the screen, and if you stop in place, you will be courting death. The Haus directly launched an attack, not only startled the German submarine on the seabed, but also the destroyer Harry, which was approaching rapidly. Captain Reinhardt cursed loudly: "This **** bastard, this is a waste of ammunition. Now the **** has only gone a third of the voyage, and there is no more ammunition in the later stage. Let me see what he will do. Pick me up House again No." "Yes, sir!" It''s a pity that Fang Lang didn''t have time to pay attention to him at this time, and was staring closely at the reaction of the water surface. It''s a pity that the oil pollution he wanted to see did not appear. It seems that the depth of the submarine is very deep! "Two more depth charges at the maximum depth, let''s see if you can hold it!" The crew members on the ship all looked at Fang Lang with strange eyes. Obviously, they did not understand Fang Lang''s order, and everyone thought that the sonar soldiers should have misreported it. I couldn''t help thinking in my heart, it seems that I am the captain of a transport ship after all, and it is my first time to be the captain of a destroyer. I have no experience, so I am too fussy. But fortunately, all the crew members were recruited by Fang Lang himself, and everyone received the allowance from Fang Lang, and they would not have any hesitation in Fang Lang''s order. "Yes, two maximum-depth depth charges, ready for launch." "Sir, the Harry is calling again." The signalman reported loudly. "Ignore this idiot for now!" Fang Lang said without turning his head. At this time, the lookout shouted: "Sir, the Harry is approaching rapidly, the bearing is 090, the distance is seven nautical miles, and a semaphore is sent, asking our ship to give up the behavior of wasting ammunition. There are no enemy ships in this area, and we are asked to return to our own immediately. Location." After hearing what the watchman said, all the crew members looked at Fang Lang in a daze. Everyone thought that Fang Lang should be wrong. But at this moment, the sonar soldier shouted: "The effect of the hydrophone becomes stronger, it is the sound of the propeller, sir, he is just below us, he moved, and the heading is 090." Fang Lang heard this, isn''t this **** hell! The fish in our bowl is about to be unhooked now, and it is going straight towards our old enemy. This is to give the other party a head! At this time, all the crew members stared at Fang Lang dumbfounded, unexpectedly he was right. Fang Lang was overjoyed when he heard that: "What are you waiting for, the maximum depth depth charge was launched, and both sides were launched at the same time." "Yes, sir, depth charges launched." Fang Lang looked at the Harry number coming towards him again, and couldn''t help but sigh, this can be regarded as a fool''s blessing! After thinking about it, he ordered: "Right rudder ten, two-thirds power, weaving forward, let''s go around the side of the Harry, I want to see if I can get a good deal." Because the two depth charges that were not fired in time were heard by the friendly army, they were fired immediately. Soon, two "dong dong" sounds were heard. What Fang Lang didn''t know was that the reason why Schrader took the initiative to turn on the machine and fled forward was because he found that the Harry was also moving straight and fast in his direction. Schrader''s first reaction was that he had been exposed, and he would be surrounded and killed by two destroyers if he didn''t run away. As a last resort, he could only take the initiative to cancel the silent state and start to escape. It was precisely because of his sudden boot and escape that he escaped the two deepest depth charges that Fang Lang dropped straight down. Schreider''s sudden start-up naturally failed to escape the sonar detection of the Harry. Reinhardt was taken aback when he heard the report from the sonar soldiers. No matter what happened, we didnt find any abnormal sea area. There was really a German submarine hidden, and it was discovered by this group of Brazilian soil turtles. This made him suddenly feel pale. Hot, it turned out that the clown turned out to be himself. Immediately afterwards, I heard that the submarine was heading in their direction, and I was overjoyed. Isn''t this a coincidence! The credit has come to your door! Hastily ordered: "Bosun, first-level security on the entire ship, all personnel are in place. Set the fixed course to 270, and let me keep an eye on him. Depth charges are ready, we are about to open." At this time, Captain Schreider of the German submarine U441 was also very depressed. He hid himself well, but because of the sound of a water glass falling to the ground, his previous efforts were wasted. I don''t know if anyone escaped with their lives. The sound of two depth charges falling into the water again from above his head raised his heart again. The four depth charges in front did not cause much damage to his U441 because of the depth. But if depth charges keep falling into the water, I dont dare to bet! Everyone''s hearts were raised, and they kept praying to their God, the old man, hoping to escape safely. Unfortunately, the depth of the depth charges this time is the maximum depth. Just after U441 left, the depth charges exploded where they had stayed. Although they failed to blow them up directly, the powerful shock wave still caused water to leak inside the submarine, and the water pressure pipes began to rupture. The soldiers in the boat panicked and kept reporting the situation to Captain Schrader. "Sir, we are sinking without pressure, at a depth of one hundred." "Everyone stay steady, check the water leaks, hurry up and repair, everyone don''t mess up, we still have a chance." "The commander''s position is 090, the enemy destroyer is approaching rapidly, and the distance is five nautical miles!" "Sir, the depth is one hundred and one." "Hold on, everyone, don''t panic." The house leak happened to rain overnight, and just as Schrader was racking his brains to find a solution to the immediate crisis, bad news came from the power cabin. "Sir, the power compartment is flooded. We are organizing drainage. The No. 1 engine has flooded and cannot work." "Is the torpedo room damaged?" "Sir, the bow torpedo compartment is safe." "Sir, the aft torpedo compartment has flooded and is being repaired." "Sir, the depth is one hundred and thirteen." "In this case, let''s fight for life and death! Attention everyone, we are facing the enemy destroyer directly ahead, and the bow torpedo is loaded and ready to launch. Chief officer, remind me when we are two nautical miles away from the enemy ship. I am very happy to be with you Let''s fight together." After hearing Schrader''s words, everyone understood that now is the moment of life and death. Since they chose to be submarine soldiers, everyone has the consciousness to be buried in the bottom of the sea at any time. Everyone began to gather their minds. Some soldiers took out the necklaces around their necks, opened the lids and looked at the smiling faces of their beloved girls inside. Some people took out the suicide note they had written long ago, checked it again, and put it close to their body. Some people even started to check their weapons, obviously not wanting to be crushed to death by the sinking water pressure of the submarine, or swallowed by the explosion of the submarine, and prepared to solve it by themselves at the last moment. Schrader looked at everyone''s expressions, and didn''t say much. The moment he became a submariner, everyone had the consciousness of dying. Otherwise, how many people would be able to endure the dark life under the water and the turbid air. "Sir, the depth is 150, the destroyer in front is four nautical miles away, and the destroyer in the rear is turning." "Don''t worry about the destroyers behind. It is impossible for them and the destroyers in front to sail towards each other. Hold on tight, everyone, don''t worry." "Sir, the seepage is blocked." The sudden good news made everyone feel relieved. Although everyone didn''t know what Schrader was going to do, at least there was no need to worry about sinking into the sea now. The report of the damage control made Schrader stunned, and he was ready to face down. After the torpedo was launched obliquely upwards in the flat sand falling goose style, it sank with the submarine. Why is the water leak blocked now? , Has the old man opened his eyes? The maximum diving depth of German U-boats in this period can reach 200 meters, so as long as the depth does not exceed 200 meters, there is actually no need to worry about life-threatening, but if the depth exceeds 200 meters, the submarine will soon die. Like a raw egg, it is crushed directly by water pressure. So Schrader was actually prepared. When the leak couldn''t be blocked, the submarine sank directly to the bottom. That''s why he said in a heavy tone like the crew members were happy to fight with everyone, which meant that they were just explaining the funeral. As a result, the leak was blocked, and I had to make timely changes to my battle plan. After all, it is better to live than to die. Having the courage to die generously and actively seeking death are two different concepts. (end of this chapter) Chapter 64: naval battle three Chapter 64 Naval Battle III At this time on the destroyer House, Fang Lang was constantly calculating the distance between the submarine and the Harry. He didn''t understand why the German submarine didn''t turn around! Instead, they headed straight for the Harry. Is this the legendary two-way love? After all, he didn''t know that the two depth charges he had just damaged had damaged the submarine, and now the U441 was leaking water, and its speed dropped drastically. Fang Lang, who turned to circle around, watched helplessly as the sailors on the Harry were preparing depth charges in a panic. Harry''s captain''s room, seeing Fang Lang on his port side, approaching the direction of the fleet and turning around, Reinhardt smiled triumphantly, so what if you found the enemy ship! In the end, it''s not about picking peaches by yourself. "Sir, bearing 270, two nautical miles away, the enemy seems to have stopped." The report of the sonar soldiers made Reinhardt stunned. What''s going on, didn''t we agree to go in both directions! Why don''t you go half way! It seems that you don''t really love me! But if you dont love me, its okay, its fine if I love you. "Pay attention to the movement of the enemy ship at any time, and be careful that he suddenly turns and flees. After entering the attack range, attack freely!" "Understood, attack freely after entering the attack range." At this time, on the German submarine U441, kept in the submarine at a depth of 150 meters, a report from the chief officer came: "Sir, bearing 090, two nautical miles away." As the captain of an excellent German U-boat, Schreider has already changed his attack thinking. Since there is no need to die together, what he must do now is to run away immediately! "Immediately report the current location of the rear destroyer." "Bearing 116, three nautical miles away." Schrader couldn''t help cursing inwardly. It seemed that he had encountered a master. In this situation, if he wanted to escape, he had to hide under the transport fleet and use the sound of the propeller of the freighter to avoid being chased and killed. But this destroyer has already detoured to the middle of itself and the transport fleet. It is at least 18 nautical miles away from the transport fleet. With such a long distance, it is impossible not to be discovered by the other party. It seems that he needs to make a little noise to cover himself. Thinking of this, Schrader immediately ordered: "Release decoy rounds." "Understood sir, the decoy bomb has been released." The so-called bait bomb is a kind of mechanical bait invented by the German army. It is the size of a refrigerator. It will float in the water like an effervescent tablet and spray outwards, misleading the enemy to attack, and a weapon that takes the opportunity to abscond. It is called "Pilenwolf" in German, also known as the pill thrower. "Right rudder thirty, heading 120, we withdraw." "Understood, sir, heading 120, starboard thirty." Just after the order was issued, Schrader heard the sound of depth charges falling into the water like dumplings. Hearing the sound of the depth charges falling into the water, the corner of Schrader''s mouth twitched, knowing that the enemy ship above had been fooled, and he could just use the sound of the depth charges falling into the water and exploding to escape quickly. ordered aloud: "Hurry up and repair the No. 1 engine, the No. 2 engine is fully powered, and move forward at full speed." "It''s sir, full speed ahead." Reinhardt on the Harry couldn''t restrain his emotions at this moment, and began to laugh out loud; "Haha. Other German devils ran away and threw all the depth charges on my head, haha. I got my first kill." Pick up the binoculars and keep looking at the sea surface, hoping to find oil stains on the bottom of the sea or louder explosions. Unfortunately, things backfired, and none of the lookout posts on the Harry found any signs of the enemy submarine being destroyed. Reinhardt thought that the depth of the depth charge was not enough, and ordered: "Maximum depth drop for all bombs." All crew members obey orders immediately. "Yes sir, the depth charges are released at the maximum depth." Fang Lang felt aggrieved watching the lively scene near the Harry on the sea in the distance. TMD is obviously my dish, but he ran into your bowl by himself, so why should I justify it? Fang Lang also stood on the side of the ship, using binoculars, to help carefully observe whether there was any damage to the submarine on the sea surface. Although he couldn''t put the credit in his pocket, it was also an enemy submarine. For the safety of the fleet, he also hoped that this U-boats can be eliminated. But looking at it, Fang Lang felt that something was wrong. The Harry was so lively that it didn''t make sense that he couldn''t be bombed! Unless he sank directly to the bottom. The more I looked at it, the more I felt that something was wrong. I hurried into the bridge and said to the sonar soldiers: "Is there anything unusual on the bottom of the sea?" "Sir, the entire seabed is now filled with the sound of depth charges exploding, and the sonar is completely unable to work." When Fang Lang heard it, he was suddenly blessed, and understood what was wrong. I began to think differently in my heart. If I were the submarine commander, what would I do? Gradually, my eyes began to light up, as if I had figured out something, and I ordered directly: "Bosun, first-level combat readiness of the entire ship, all weapons are in place." Following Fang Lang''s order, the House, which was watching the excitement, became active instantly like ignited gunpowder. "Combat Situation Center, please help me calculate the fastest path from the enemy submarine''s stop position to the direction of the transport fleet. In that direction, how long will it take for our ship to meet the enemy at two-thirds of the full right rudder speed?" Fang Lang connected to the communication within the ship and gave an order to the Combat Situation Center. "It''s sir, start counting immediately." De La Torre''s answer sounded immediately. Fang Lang ordered the bridge driver again: "Full starboard, two-thirds speed." "Yes, sir, two-thirds speed, full starboard." Soon the results came from the communication within the ship. "The long official direction is 135, and the distance is seven nautical miles." "Okay, received, thanks for your hard work." Fang Lang put down the communicator, glanced at the Harry not far away, smiled and shook his head, not paying attention. At this time, the lookout post on the Harry saw that the House began to turn to the **** fleet, thinking that the House was going back to its **** position, and reported to the Reinhardt Exchange: "Sir, the House has turned to the direction of the transport fleet, and the speed is not fast. It should be returning to the battle position." Following the report of his subordinates, Reinhardt turned his head to look in the direction of the House, and said with a contemptuous smile: "Forget this Brazilian monkey is sensible, ignore him, let''s kill the German rats below." "Understood sir." Reinhardt, who was still blaming Fang Lang for wasting ammunition just now, didn''t care at this time. The depth charge thrown from the depth charge launcher caused the entire sea surface to be blown up by the Harry, and white waves kept churning. From time to time, sea fish floated on the sea surface after being stunned by the powerful shock wave. At this time, a communication request from the command ship Callaghan came from the communication channel of the House: "House, this is the Callaghan. Are you sure about the outcome of the battle? Please save ammunition as much as possible," Fang Lang held the communicator and was happy. It seems that Lieutenant Colonel Becky of the command ship heard the explosion here was too lively, and thought it was me frying fish! The aristocratic master of the Harry did not take the command ship seriously. It seems that he did not notify the command ship at all, so he directly ordered to do it! The command ship thought it was the House that was dropping bombs. Listening to this movement, there are a total of 60 depth charges, and 50 of them should have been wasted by now! Sure enough, the aristocrat is rich, and he is really a rich man with so many depth charges to fry fish. Could it be that after so long, he hasn''t found anything unusual? It''s amazing that such a slow person can become a captain. "Command ship, this is House. Our ship is tracking the enemy U-boat at a bearing of 135, five nautical miles away. It is the HMS Harry that is dropping the bomb now." Fang Lang''s answer stunned Lieutenant Colonel Becky, what do you mean, isn''t it the attack you applied for? Why haven''t you caught the enemy ship yet, but the Harry, which started attacking without reporting. "House, this is the command ship. Please explain the specific situation so that the command ship can judge the enemy''s situation." "Received the command ship, our ship found the enemy situation in the direction of 036 on the left side of the transport fleet, and went to check. After dropping six depth charges, the enemy ship fled in the direction of the Harry. The attack was intercepted by the Harry, over." "House, since the Harry has already started attacking the enemy ship, has your ship found any new enemy situation, why is it chasing the enemy ship in the direction of 135?" "Lieutenant Colonel Becky, I am Captain Fang Lang of the USS House. I suspect that the USS Harry attacked the enemy ship with decoy bombs. According to calculations, I suspect that the enemy ship is fleeing in the direction of 135, over." After a while, the voice of Lieutenant Colonel Becky came from the radio: "Major Fang, I am Lieutenant Colonel Becky, I agree with your judgment, please make sure to successfully intercept the enemy U-boat, and don''t let it rush into the transport ship." The fleet strikes. Over." (end of this chapter) Chapter 65: naval battle four Chapter 65 Naval Battle IV I have to say that Lieutenant Colonel Becky is worthy of being an old captain. From Fang Lang''s simple description, he already has a general understanding of the course of the battle, and agrees with Fang Lang''s judgment, which makes Fang Lang admire him. But what Fang Lang didn''t know was that Lieutenant Colonel Becky on the Callahan was even more shocked by his performance at this time. Unexpectedly, a cannon fodder captain who just came out of a short-term training class would have such a sense of war. "Major Lopez, what do you think of the captain of the House?" "Sir, this young man is able to detect the enemy ship in the first place, quickly judge the target of the Harry''s attack, and calculate the direction of interception. He is indeed an excellent destroyer captain. I think we should invite him achievement." "Haha. Looks like we''re on the same page." "But sir, this is the Harry." Seeing the adjutant hesitant to speak, Lieutenant Colonel Becky shook his head with a smile and said: "Hehe. Stupid and haughty Brit, it''s pathetic that we have such an ally." "Then, should we punish them for their behavior of disobeying military orders and firing without asking for instructions?" "No, no need, even if we give them an order, they will resist it. Let''s pretend that nothing happened and let them continue frying fish! Let''s see how they report when all their depth charges are used up." "Okay! Sir, I feel that the relationship between the House and the Harry is not harmonious enough! Will this create a safety hazard for our left-wing defense line!" "Don''t worry, the Germans are no longer the Germans at the beginning of the war. Their submarines have suffered a lot of damage. Even if there are wolves waiting in front of us, I believe we can take the fleet through the enemy smoothly." It was blocked by the army. However, the Harry is indeed an unstable factor, so when he applies for ammunition, he should give it a good beating." I have to say that although Lieutenant Colonel Becky looks down on Reinhardt, the British guy does have an unusual relationship with the Yankee. If this happens to Fang Lang, Fang Lang will definitely be sprayed to pieces. As for the unorganized and undisciplined behavior of the Harry, Lieutenant Colonel Becky is only going to beat them when they apply for ammunition! Sure enough, brothers are different. Just as the House was communicating with the Callaghan, the depth charges of the Harry finally ran out, and the sea returned to a quiet state again, and the moment Fang Lang had been waiting for for a long time finally arrived. "Sonar room, investigate the area on the right side of our ship to see how far this water mouse is from us." "Understood, sir!" Everyone was staring at the operation of the sonar operator, only to see the sonar operator operate, and soon a curve jumped up on the electronic screen, and the sonar operator shouted in surprise: "Direction 205, one nautical mile away, strong hydroacoustic effect, high-speed propeller sound, the enemy is on the right side of our ship." When Fang Lang heard it, he was determined and ordered directly: "Five depth charges, the maximum depth, at five-second intervals." "Yes, sir, the maximum depth, five, at intervals of five seconds." "Ten to the right rudder, set the course, and move forward in a roundabout." "Right rudder ten, the course is fixed." Fang Lang is preparing to form a fan position in front of the enemy, waiting for him to drill in. All the crew members of the House looked at Fang Lang excitedly. Although they have not eliminated the German U-boat yet, this does not prevent everyone from casting convincing eyes on him. Because, he can always anticipate the enemy''s opportunity, accurately predict the enemy''s movements in advance, and stick to his own judgment when others think he is wrong, but the result proves that he is right. Perhaps, this is why it is often said that the truth is often in the hands of a few! But at the moment, the U441 boat is in a mess. Schrader''s trick to escape the shell is really awesome. Hearing the constant explosion sound behind him, although it makes everyone''s ears uncomfortable, everyone is very happy. You know, it''s a salute to give them cover and it won''t do them any harm. But just when the rumbling of the depth charges stopped, there was a sudden "buzz" sound from above the submarine. As submariners, this sound was simply their nightmare. Everyone knows that this is the sound of sonar work. Now I think It was too late to shut down the engine and go into silence. The submarine that is sailing forward at the maximum speed, once locked by the enemy sonar, will be unavoidable. "Full starboard rudder, hurry up!" Schrader''s reaction was not unpleasant. It is definitely impossible not to change direction now, because the destroyer above must have locked himself. Sure enough, there was the sound of a depth charge entering the water from above, and the second sound was heard five seconds later, and the third sound was heard five seconds later. Very rhythmic depth charge delivery. Schrader knew that he was finished, and there was a feeling of both life and life in his heart. I couldn''t help feeling in my heart, what a formidable opponent! There is nothing to say to die in your hands. When the third depth charge exploded at the stern of the submarine, the U441 boat was severely damaged. The entire submarine seemed to be pushed down into the water by a pair of invisible hands, and then rebounded by the water pressure. There was almost no energy inside the submarine. A person who stands normally. Everyone is staggering. Soon the fourth depth charge exploded at the bow of the boat, directly blowing a big hole in the bow of U441. In just an instant, sea water poured into the boat. At this time, on the Harry, Reinhardt''s face was very ugly, and he was yelling at the sonar soldiers: "Didn''t you say that the voice is down there? Why did we drop all the depth charges, but we couldn''t get rid of him." The sonar soldier was very wronged and said in a low voice: "We must have encountered the German''s pill thrower." Hearing what the sonar soldiers said, Reinhardt immediately realized that as a professionally trained destroyer captain, he certainly knew what a pill thrower was. "What did you do long ago, only to find out that it is a decoy bomb now. You trash. The combat situation center will help me find this damned water rat immediately." Before the Combat Situation Center could reply, the lookout posted a report: "Sir, the House is dropping depth charges." Linehardt immediately picked up the binoculars on the table and ran out, raising the binoculars to look at the House in the distance. After hearing the muffled sound of five depth charges exploding in the distance, there was no movement. This made Reinhardt puzzled, why didn''t he continue to drop depth charges if the enemy was found? Are you so sure that you can use five depth charges to eliminate the enemy? Didn''t make Reinhardt wait any longer, Fang Lang''s steady voice came from the public channel soon: "Reporting to the **** ship, the USS House sank an enemy U-boat in the direction of 205. The result has been confirmed visually. The enemy has no chance to surface, no enemy radio communication signal has been detected, and the position of our fleet has not been revealed. complete!" Immediately afterwards, the voice of Lieutenant Colonel Becky, the captain of the Callahan, came from the communicator: "Received, House! Thank you for your heroic battle. Please return to the **** position as soon as possible, over!" Fang Lang was actually very restless at the moment. He didn''t expect that he really killed a German U-shaped submarine with his own strength. But he can''t be too excited, he must maintain a cold image, mainly to impress his subordinates that everything is under his control. Let everyone have confidence in their combat command ability, so that they will execute their orders without hesitation in the future. "House, received, return to the **** position. Finished!" After putting down the communicator, he found that all the soldiers were looking at him. Fang Lang looked at each subordinate seriously, then came to the intercom in the ship, picked up the intercom and said firmly to the soldiers on the ship: "Yes, we killed him! This is everyone''s credit, everyone is good." Soon the thunderous cheers of the soldiers resounded throughout the House! Whether on duty or resting, all the crew cheered loudly. Everyone felt that the captain was really amazing. At this time, when everyone looked at the Harry in the distance, a little sarcasm began to appear in their eyes involuntarily. After all, everyone will never forget the semaphore sent by the Harry. (end of this chapter) Chapter 66: Intermission Chapter 66 Intermission Fang Lang smiled and patted every soldier around him, came to the sonar soldier and patted him on the shoulder and said: "Lalu Cabrera right? I remember your name is Cabrera!" The sonar soldier obviously didn''t expect that the captain would remember his name. He was poached by de la Torre from other warships. He had no background and no chance of promotion. He had worked under de la Torre before. So after de la Torre told him Fang Lang''s rules, he chose to agree to be transferred without hesitation. Before coming here, Fang Lang only met him once during the interview, and he could call out accurately unexpectedly. His name, which made him very excited, stood up quickly and said: "Yes sir, my name is Cabrera." Fang Lang stretched out his hand with a smile, held each other together, and held the other''s right arm with his left hand and said: "Nice job Cabrera, you''re an excellent sonar soldier." The sonar soldier at this time, already flushed with excitement, said in a trembling voice: "Sir, thank you for believing in me! You led us to victory!" Fang Lang smiled and said: "Young man, be more confident, you are my soldier, of course I believe in you, come on! I am very optimistic about you!" In fact, Cabrera in front of him is five or six years old than Da Fang Lang, but at this time, no one thinks that there is any problem with Fang Lang''s title of a young man. Fang Lang returned to the bridge with a smile, and said to the first officer: "Okay, the first officer will take command next, I will go to rest for a while, and call me directly if there is a situation." House''s chief officer was the original chief engineer of the transport ship, Amar Reina. After hearing Fang Lang''s order, Reina stood at attention and said loudly: "Yes, boss. Attention all personnel, the captain rests, and now I am in command." Just now I have been commanding the battle nervously, and I didn''t feel the cold. Now when I relax, I suddenly feel a chill hit. Only then did I feel that my back was completely wet with sweat. Fortunately, he was wearing two pieces of clothes, otherwise, if everyone saw his wet back, wouldn''t his tall image not stand upright? Fang Lang swayed along with the hull and walked towards his captain''s room. People kept greeting him on the road, and he nodded in response. After finally returning to the captain''s room, he pumped his fist excitedly, his face full of excitement, completely different from the aloof image just now. After two or three minutes, he calmed down completely, and quickly changed his soaked clothes. Directing the battle is indeed very energy-consuming. After relaxing, Fang Lang lay on the bed, thinking about whether he just discovered the enemy ship with his own analytical ability, or his sixth sense! After much deliberation, there was no answer, and finally Fang Lang was shaken by the waves into sleep without knowing it. The following day and night were spent in calm weather. On the fourth night after the fleet left the protection of the U.S. Air Force, light rain began to fall in the sky. The temperature, which was not high at all, dropped to about five degrees. Standing outside the bridge The soldiers in the country will feel shivering when they are blown by the cold wind mixed with rain. Fang Lang, who had dinner, was patrolling the safety of the equipment on the warship outside the ship, and chatting with the soldiers standing in the wind and rain from time to time. Suddenly heard a call from the warship''s internal communicator: "The bridge is calling the captain, please come to the bridge, it''s over!" Fang Lang glanced at the dark night, his heart sank, knowing that he must face the German submarine again, he walked quickly to the bridge. Coming to the bridge soon, the second officer on duty saw Fang Lang and immediately reported loudly: "Sir, the **** command ship Callaghan has just received news that the Thor on the right side of the **** fleet has intercepted the German communication. We have been spotted by a German submarine. It is expected that the German submarine will set up an ambush in the K area. The Thor has already gone to pursue it. This German submarine is dead, the command ship is named and we are more vigilant." "Oh! Area K, it seems that there will be no sleep tonight! Everyone, hurry up and rest. You continue to command from above, and I will go to the combat situation center to have a look." Fang Lang thought that the German army was already in decline, and he had been jumping around for a few days. Unexpectedly, German submarines were still very active on the Atlantic route! Shaking his head, he put down the irrelevant things in his mind and walked into the combat situation center. In the combat situation center at this moment, everyone has obviously received a notification. The radar has already started to work. Although it is relatively busy, everyone is not panicked. Patting de la Torre on the shoulder, Fang Lang said: "Old German, aren''t you on duty during the day! Why are you still here now! Go and rest for a while, and come back when the battle starts. If you don''t rest well, you don''t have the energy to fight." Della Torre shook his head helplessly and said: "Boss, I also want to rest! But we are all newbies after all. This combat center is too advanced. It is all equipment we have never touched before. I am afraid that I will lose the chain. Now you tell me to sleep, and I will sleep too." No way!" Fang Lang smiled and comforted De La Torre and said: "Trust our brothers, everyone has been trained. Besides, even if the equipment doesn''t work, we won''t fight? Don''t worry! The German devils don''t want to attack the fleet under our protection." Just when Fang Lang wanted to chat with de la Torre for a few more words, the fleet radio rang, saying that it was a communication from the Harry, and asked Fang Lang to answer it. Fang Lang was also speechless. Originally, the Harry got nothing in the battle the day before yesterday. After being slapped in the face, Fang Lang thought that Reinhardt would restrain himself a little, but he didn''t expect that it would become more serious in the past two days. He asked the House to obey his command at every turn, which made not only Fang Lang very upset, but even the crew of the House were also very dissatisfied. The army is a very special group. As long as you can lead everyone to victory, everyone will obey your command. But if you can''t win by following you, then every word you say is nonsense. Fang Lang knew that Reinhardt must be very upset that Fang Lang could kill the German U-boat. But as a soldier, war is not a game, it is not about winning or losing, but about life and death. Fang Lang feels that he is a mature person, a person who is out of vulgar taste, so Fang Lang just smiled at Reinhardt''s boring behavior, as if it were an annoying mosquito in your ear The buzzing call may also **** a big mouthful of blood on your body, but it can''t cause you too much damage. Of course, if there is a chance, Fang Lang will never mind, give him an unforgettable memory, and let him know why the flowers are so popular. Smiling and shaking his head, Fang Lang returned to the bridge and picked up the communicator and said: "Harry, I''m Fang Lang of the House, please tell me, it''s over!" Communicator You immediately heard Reinhardt''s voice: "House, I''m commanding Reinhardt on the left side. We will arrive at Area K in two hours. In order to prevent the radar system from running too long and causing an overheating reaction, our ship will turn on the radar in two hours. Please make sure that the radar is turned on on your ship, if you find any abnormalities, please report to our ship as soon as possible, over!" Fang Lang heard, I''ll **** you, you really treat yourself like an onion. You are afraid of your radar overheating, are you not afraid of my radar overheating? When the time comes to fight, you can turn on the radar all the time, what should I do, this mother is really selfish to a certain level! If it''s other trivial matters, Fang Lang doesn''t bother to pay attention to it, just pretend to be deaf and dumb, but for such a matter related to your own safety, if you want to sacrifice yourself to fulfill you, then you think too much. "Harry, this is House. The relay of our ship''s radar system has overheated and is undergoing maintenance. It cannot be turned on now. The specific start time cannot be determined. Please inform our ship of the enemy''s situation after your ship finds the target." Fang Lang would not directly tear himself apart with him, nor would he be allowed in the upcoming battle, so he found an excuse of equipment failure and directly rejected his request. Actually, there is nothing wrong with his request. It is indeed the reality. A fairer way should be that everyone can turn on the phone in turn, allocate time, and ensure that the connection is not interrupted. But, good guy, you just said that you have to rest the whole time to deal with the upcoming fierce battle, so others don''t have to fight? Everyone is on the same front. If there is a problem with my radar at that time, I will definitely not be the only one who will suffer losses. And Reinhardt on the Harry was furious after hearing Fang Lang''s answer: "Damn you brazilian soil beetle, do you think that you have a kill record? How dare you ignore my order, I will definitely make you look good." (end of this chapter) Chapter 67: ambush Chapter 67 Ambush Fang Lang didn''t want to care about Harry''s mood! I don''t want to fight internally. Anyway, I will fight the same with you or without you. It is obviously impossible to really expect the other party to cooperate with me in the fight, so I just take care of myself and forget it. While Fang Lang was still arguing with the Harry, a communication from the command ship Callaghan suddenly came from the fleet radio: "House, our ship has just found an abnormal signal in the direction of 068, 27 nautical miles, and now orders your ship to go to check." As soon as Fang Lang heard it, he was about to reply when he heard the communication channel of Harry Reinhardt from the communicator: "Command ship, this is Harry, my ship is relatively close to the target area, and I am heading for the search, over!" There was silence in the communicator for a while, and no one spoke. After a long while, the voice of Lieutenant Colonel Becky came: "Agreed, Harry, go to search, please check carefully to ensure safety. House continues to maintain the **** position, over!" I don''t know what Reinhardt thought when he heard this reply. Anyway, the corners of Fang Lang''s mouth turned up involuntarily. After all, this is an obvious distrust of Harry''s ability! I was afraid that what happened last time would happen again. At first, Fang Lang thought it was strange. Why did the command ship order himself to check when the Harry was closer to the target? "Harry received! Over!" An unfamiliar voice came from the communication channel, Fang Lang shook his head with a smile, and pressed the communication button calmly: "House received! Over!" Then pressed the in-ship communicator and called: "Combat Information Center, this is the bridge, please reply, it''s over!" "Received by the Combat Information Center, please tell me about the bridge!" De La Torre''s voice came. "Didn''t my ship notice the abnormal signal discovered by the command ship just now?" "Report, just now a little abnormal signal was scanned on our ship''s radar, but it only passed by in a flash. We regarded it as a malfunction and did not report it. It''s over." Della Torre''s voice obviously reveals this apology, this is indeed his work mistake. Fang Lang was very annoyed, but considering that everyone had just come into contact with this equipment and could not express their emotions in the communicator, he said in a flat tone: "This is the last time, over." Although Fang Lang didn''t say much to blame, all the soldiers in the entire combat situation center couldn''t help but straightened their backs and widened their eyes, because the earphones made their ears feel uncomfortable all the time, so they deliberately put them crooked The soldiers also put on their headphones. Everyone''s work attitude is involuntarily upright. Everyone knows that this is their own work mistake. De la Torre focused his eyes and said firmly: "Please rest assured, boss, there will never be a second time. Over" "Mark the target area and keep an eye on it. I don''t care what the results of the Harry investigation are, we have to have our own results, understand?" "Understood, boss." After Fang Lang gave the order, he put on his raincoat, walked out of the bridge, and looked at the dark night sky with binoculars. In the dark rainy night, it seemed that there was a giant beast that could swallow everything. The distance of 27 nautical miles was obviously not what Fang Lang''s binoculars could observe. of. Even in Fang Lang''s telescope, the figure of the Harry could not be found. However, Fang Lang was still looking in that direction with the binoculars, Fang Lang didn''t know how long it had passed, maybe less than five minutes, Fang Lang turned around suddenly and said to the bosun: "Level 1 battle alert, close the watertight compartment, and keep the sonar on the left side of our ship for continuous detection." The bosun was obviously taken aback, what was the situation, but he didn''t hesitate, and directly sounded the first-level combat alarm, and the House woke up from a deep sleep again in an instant. After Fang Lang finished speaking, he turned his head and looked at the sea on the left again. His sixth sense issued an alarm again. This time the alarm was obviously more urgent than the last time. Fang Lang felt a wave under the black sea not far away. Murderously locked himself. He spoke again without looking back: "All artillery is ready, guard on the left, and open fire freely if abnormal targets are found." The communicator behind him looked bewildered, but instinctively repeated the order to the bridge: "All artillery guard the left side, and open fire freely when the target is found." Immediately after the artillery on the House, they began to turn their muzzles in unison, and began to guard against the sea on the left. Everyone held their breath and concentrated, not daring to make any noise. They didn''t understand what was going on. Didn''t they just say that the enemy was twenty-seven nautical miles away? The telescope in Fang Lang''s hand has not been put down, and after about three or four minutes, just when everyone thought it was a false alarm, Fang Lang suddenly crossed the bridge, came to the right side of the warship, raised the telescope, and found that a cargo ship was approaching him He was moving forward at a constant speed in front of his right, while his own warship was faster than him, and would soon catch up with him. Returning to the bridge, Fang Lang stood at the door of the sonar room, closed his eyes, and wanted to calm himself down. He hoped that he was an illusion, but he knew it was definitely not. There must be a hunter waiting for one under the sea not far away. The most opportune time. Suddenly, he remembered the abnormal signal just now, and the Harry left. The Thor on the right line of defense also went to track the German submarine that sent out the communication signal, so the current fleet has only three warships to protect it. Fang Lang felt that he had caught something, and there must be a connection between them. Fang Lang suddenly thought of something and blurted out: "Tune the tiger away from the mountain!" Everyone looked at Fang Lang and didn''t know what he was talking about, because Fang Lang spoke Chinese, which everyone didn''t understand, but they didn''t need to understand! Fang Lang knew that the ambush location was not in the K area at all, this was the ambush location, and they had already entered the ambush circle. However, these are Fang Lang''s sixth sense plus his analysis. Without actual evidence, it is impossible for Fang Lang to report that it is his own guess. Returning to the left again, Fang Lang glanced at the sea not far away, but still saw nothing, but Fang Lang decided not to wait. Raising the binoculars, staring at the rough sea not far away, said: "Let the 127mm naval gun fire a shell at the sea to our left." Waited for a while, did not hear the orderly, repeated the order, turned around, and found that the orderly was looking at him, and when he saw himself looking over, he hurriedly said: "Sir, where to shoot." Obviously, his order was not clear enough, and the orderly didn''t know how to convey it. Fang Lang smiled and said: "Ten nautical miles from the sea on the left!" "Understood, sir, on the left side of the sea, at ten nautical miles, 127 naval guns, a test fire." Although everyone didn''t know why, they still carried out the order without hesitation. Soon, a 127mm naval gun on the bow of the ship was directly aimed at the sea on the left side, and it was a "bang". Everyone felt baffled and didn''t understand what this was for. But it was just this shot, as if a glass of water had been poured into a pot full of hot oil. There was a sudden response from the sea, and the sonar soldier was the first to call the police, and he yelled: "Biting 041, distance 7 nautical miles, two torpedoes." With this loud cry, everyone was shocked, and they looked at Fang Lang dumbfounded, with an expression of seeing a ghost. Fang Lang seemed to have rushed into the bridge road as expected: "Full left rudder, position 041, advance at full speed. First officer, come and report the enemy''s situation to the command ship. We will meet him, this hunter is a bit impatient! He will come out after a try." Everyone on the bridge heard Fang Lang''s words and began to execute them methodically. At the same time, everyone was in awe of Fang Lang, what a **** god, everyone looked at Fang Lang with the eyes of a god. Sudden sharp turn and rapid acceleration, the entire hull began to tilt sharply, everyone clung to the objects around them tightly, Fang Lang leaned sideways on the intercom and said: "Battle Information Center, has the target been found?" "Report, haven''t found it yet, wait a minute. Bearing 041, six nautical miles away, found the enemy, it should be a German U-boat. He floated up." "Continue to search, there is definitely more than this one nearby, give me a serious search." "Yes, boss!" There were a few bangs on the sea outside, and it was as bright as day in an instant. It turned out that the ship fired flares at the target area, and then it was like poking a hornet''s nest. Raid. (end of this chapter) Chapter 68: rescue Chapter 68 Rescue Lieutenant Colonel Becky, the fleet command ship, was also stunned when he heard the message from the House. Why are there so many enemy ships nearby. The current situation is beyond his consideration. Because, from the moment the House discovered the enemy''s situation, another ship on the right, the David, was attacked by a torpedo. While looking for the enemy, the Thor was entangled by the enemy, and the Harry could not be contacted. One of the five **** ships was injured and basically lost the ability to fight, and the other three were entangled, and he was the only one who hadn''t been attacked. Based on his experience, if he didn''t understand what happened at this time, he, the captain, would Don''t be fooled. However, knowing what happened, there was nothing he could do. Because it is impossible for him to withdraw the warship that is approaching the enemy, which will give the enemy ship an opportunity. If you dont withdraw, the current transport fleet is like a naked girl with only a small fan in her hand to cover it. Where do you say you are blocking at this time? The helpless Callaghan command ship could only call in the communication channel: "Every ship, destroy the enemy in the shortest time, and then quickly return to defense!" At this time, the ship Howes had completed its turn, and the torpedo fired by the enemy passed through a place fifty or sixty meters away from the ship, completely unable to cause any damage to the Howes. While everyone was rejoicing at avoiding the torpedoes of enemy ships, Fang Lang began to worry about the transport fleet behind him. After all, his main task was to protect the transport fleet. For so many days, it has been safe and sound, but it seems that today is not going to be good. Just as Fang Lang was still worried about the transport ship, the ship uploaded cheers. It turned out that the enemy submarine was directly hit by its own naval gun. Looking at the enemy ships on the sea, it was obvious that it was the violent explosion flames from the martyrdom explosion. Everyone is ecstatic, this is the second sinking record of the House, how can we not make everyone happy! This is also the only sinking record of the Brazilian Navy after participating in World War II! Fang Lang saw that the enemy ship had been sunk, so he no longer missed it, and directly ordered: "Right full rudder, we return to the **** position." Then came to the radio again and called: "Callaghan, this is the House. Our ship is in the direction of 041. We have sunk an enemy U-boat. Now we are returning to the **** position. Finished!" "The Callahan received it. The House is located in the direction of your ship 239. There is a distress signal from a transport ship. Now order the ship to check it. Over." Hearing the order from the radio, Fang Lang knew that this must be the result of a German submarine attack. Hope that the people on board can survive, Fang Lang did not hesitate, and replied directly: "House received it, and now head to direction 239 to perform a rescue mission, complete" "House, please be safe, it''s over!" Fang Lang quickly discovered the distress signal Callahan said in the telescope, and ordered it directly. "Right rudder 20, bearing 239, speed 30 knots, our ship will pass through the interior of the transport fleet to rescue, please pilot and lookout post, pay attention to observation, do not collide with the transport ship." "Understood, bearing 239, right rudder 20, speed 30 knots." Soon the House arrived safely near the rescued ship, but at this time the rescued ship had its tail lifted into the sky and was about to sink. Fortunately, the crew on board escaped in two small boats. Looking at the spectacular scene of the sinking of the freighter, Fang Lang also had mixed feelings in his heart. It''s all money! I don''t know how much the environment will be polluted, but fortunately it is not an oil tanker. Otherwise, it is estimated to explode. "Lay down the middle climbing net and rescue the crew, second officer, you go ask them to see if they know how they were attacked." "Yes, sir." After Fang Lang arranged the rescue, he began to search on the sea with a telescope. Although the night sky was dark, he still hoped that his sixth sense could help him discover hidden enemies again. It''s a pity that Fang Lang didn''t find anything abnormal this time. It seems that the sixth sense alone is not enough! It still needs to be combined with advanced technology and equipment. Soon the second officer came to report that all the personnel had been rescued, and no one saw the torpedo coming from that direction. But the explosion started from the left front side of the ship. It seems that the enemy is from your own defensive area! It''s just that now there is the dark night as cover, and the sound of propellers is everywhere around. The sonar can''t find the enemy, so it can only rely on the sea radar. Some people may ask that there are ships everywhere, how can the radar find the enemy! This has to say that the British still have merits. In the early days of the invention of radar, the British also invented the IFF. "We turned around, made a detour, and returned to our **** position." Came to the internal communicator to contact the combat situation center again: "Combat Information Center, this is the bridge, have you found any enemy ship targets?" Della Torre''s slightly tired voice came over: "Boss, the sea radar still hasn''t found any abnormal targets." While Fang Lang was still distressed about not finding the enemy target, the command ship sent another order: "House, this is the Callaghan, just received a distress signal from the Harry, please go to the rescue. Over!" Hearing the content from the radio, Fang Lang couldn''t help being taken aback. What''s the situation, the Harry needs rescue, doesn''t this kid like to point fingers? Why don''t you contact us directly, but ask the command ship for help! It seems that the British nobles are very proud of themselves! I don''t want to be saved by someone I despise! It''s a pity that the command ship obviously has no time to talk to you! Let us see what happened to the poor British nobleman! "Callaghan, received by the House, now immediately go to rescue the Harry! Finished!" Although it is considered impolite to laugh at this time, many of the crew members of the House have unconsciously leaked mocking smiles. At this time, the House was actually far away from the Harry, so it took nearly an hour for the House to advance to the sea area where the Harry was located. As soon as it entered, the Harry was 20 nautical miles away, and the Combat Situation Center sent a communication: "Bridge, this is the combat situation center, in the direction of 068, at a distance of 29 nautical miles, a suspected enemy U-boat target was found." "Combat Information Center, this is the bridge, what does Suspect mean?" "Boss, our ship has a maximum detection distance of 30 nautical miles to the sea radar. This time, the enemy''s signal is just as fleeting as before. I suspect that the enemy will start diving as soon as it enters the detection range of our ship. Therefore, I The ship was unable to accurately capture the target." "Received, please remain vigilant and report the abnormal situation at any time." Fang Lang, who put down the communicator, unconsciously became vigilant. It seemed that he had encountered an opponent this time. This enemy is very cunning! Fang Lang picked up the telescope again and looked at the distant sea. As usual, he didn''t find anything unusual, but Fang Lang''s sixth sense began to keep calling the police, as if there was a man-eating beast hidden in this sea area . Turn around and walk into the bridge to order: "Left rudder 10, 1/3 power, forward detour. Connect me to Harry communication!" "Understood! Left rudder ten, one third power, forward detour." "Sir, the Harry, the communication has been connected." Fang Lang stepped forward to pick up the communicator and said: "Harry, this is House. Our ship has been ordered to rescue you. Please explain the damage to your ship." A strange voice came from the communicator: "House, this is Harry, thank you for lending a helping hand. My ship was hit by a torpedo and the rudder lost power. It may need to be towed." "Haus received it, did you find any traces of the enemy ship?" "The enemy ship has been sunk by our ship''s torpedo, and the enemy who hit the stern rudder of our ship is unknown. Please be careful of the enemy''s sneak attack." "House understands, my good brother is all right!" "Please rest assured House, Chief Reinhardt is fine, but his head was hit, and he is resting now." "House understands, please wait patiently, our ship will come to rescue immediately." Just finished the call, everyone looked at Fang Lang with weird expressions. At this time, the first mate Amar Reiner said doubtfully: "Sir, when did you and Reinhardt become good brothers!" At this time, Fang Lang said with a serious face: "Yes! When did we become good brothers with Reinhardt?" Reina heard the meaning in Fang Lang''s tone: "Boss, you mean there is something wrong with the Harry!" Fang Lang looked at Renner, nodded and smiled: "Reina, you are very smart. Our radar has discovered a submarine that is consistent with the behavior of the Harry coming to detect the target, but just now the Harry said that the enemy ship was sunk by them. The submarine was less than nine nautical miles away from the Harry just now. We can spot them. Could it be that the Harry is so close that we cant spot them? The Harry said that it was only the tail rudder that was damaged. Why didn''t the naval guns and torpedoes attack the enemy ship? " (end of this chapter) Chapter 69: trap Chapter 69 Traps Everyone on the bridge changed their complexions drastically. If this is the case, wouldnt it be a trap to come to the rescue by yourself? Reina said even more nervously: "Boss, what should we do, should we retreat immediately!" Fang Lang gave him a strange look and said: "The enemy is right in front of us, why retreat?" "But, this is a trap! That submarine, plus the Harry! We are about to be attacked." "No, there are more than two. The damage to the rudder of the Harry is not fake, and this damage is not the masterpiece of that submarine. There is at least one U-boat nearby. So there are two submarines here." "Then what shall we do?" "Don''t worry, their biggest advantage is that they are in the dark and we are in the light. Do you think their advantage is still there?" "But even if we know about their plot, we are still at a disadvantage!" However, Fang Lang stopped talking, but began to think silently about how he should break the situation. What he couldn''t understand the most now was how the Harry was controlled. No matter how he looked at it, even if all the people on the two submarines attacked the Harry, there were not as many people as the Harry! If it was said that there was a traitor on the Harry, Fang Lang would not believe it. After all, all the people on the Harry should also know that House and Harry are not good brothers. If the people on the Harry rebelled, it would be unreasonable not to know this. Now Fang Lang estimates that the number of enemy troops on the Harry will never exceed 30, because the number of members of a U-boat, plus the number of officers, is about 60. If there are too few people on a submarine, there is no way to launch an attack. So Fang Lang concluded that there would definitely not be many enemies on the Harry at this time. That means they have a chance of retaking the Harry. Slowly a plan gradually took shape in Fang Lang''s mind. "Commissioner, help me call the deputy boatswain!" "Yes, sir!" The deputy bosun of the USS House is Cruzerey Duarte, the former guard squad leader of the USS Gilas transport ship Fang Lang. This can be regarded as one person attaining Taoism and ascending to heaven! It turns out that the main backbone of the Gilas basically followed Fang Lang to serve on the new ship. And this Duarte, like Fang Lang, belonged to the first batch of Brazilian expeditionary forces that landed in Italy. After about two years of training by the US military, and having participated in battles against Italy and the German army, he can be regarded as aboard the House. Except for Fang Lang, he is the only officer who has experienced actual combat in the army. Soon Duarte came to Fang Lang, Fang Lang gave him instructions, and after discussing with him for about 20 minutes, Duarte took the order and left. After everything was ready, Fang Lang connected the Harry''s communication. "Harry, this is House, please answer if you receive it, it''s over!" "House, the Harry received it, please tell me, it''s over!" "In order to check the damage of your ship, we will send several mechanics from our ship to your ship to check the damage and confirm the rescue method. Please cooperate with the ship." Harry was silent for a moment before replying: "Harry received, our ship will put down the climbing net at the stern, please pay attention to safety, over." Seeing that the other party agreed, Fang Lang smiled slightly, knowing that the other party could not refuse such a request. After Fang Lang finished the communication, he came to the MK1 traffic boat on the side of the boat, and said to Duarte and the thirty soldiers who were ready to go: "Is everything ready?" Except for a few soldiers who played the role of mechanics and had M1911 pistols on their waists, the other soldiers were fully armed. Four of them carried M1 Gardland rifles on their backs, and the rest were all Thomson submachine guns. Everyone looked at their captain seriously, and shouted in unison: "Ready." Fang Lang waved his hand fiercely and said, "Let''s go then." The soldiers boarded the MK1 transportation boat without hesitation. This boat is a standard transportation boat on the Fletcher-class destroyer. It is specially responsible for personnel transportation and maritime communication, and can carry up to 25 people. In the dark night, two destroyers of the same model were separated by two nautical miles, and a traffic boat slowly sailed from the moving House to the Harry parked on the water. It seems that this is a simple rescue operation. The searchlights on the Harry are shining in front of the traffic boat throughout the whole process to guide the traffic boat. Soon the six mechanics on the traffic boat came from the bow to the stern in the traffic boat. Several people also checked carefully near the stern rudder at the stern, and the two mechanics even ignored the biting cold sea water, jumped into the sea water, and carefully checked the damage to the stern rudder with lights. There were seven or eight crew members on the warship all the time, sticking their heads out of the side of the ship, observing the actions of several people. After about twenty minutes, several people finally finished the inspection. Put the tools on your back and start climbing up the Harry. The crew on the Harry, when they saw a few people climbing up, several people began to hide in the shadows, leaving only four or five people standing at the stern to meet the mechanics of the House. "Hey! Dude, thank you so much, I''m the chief engineer of the Harry, what''s the result of your inspection!" A middle-aged man with a short stature and blond hair enthusiastically pulled several people onto the Harry. And took the initiative to shake hands with everyone, saying with a very warm expression. Duarte took the initiative to come out, and was not polite to the middle-aged man in front of him, cursing directly: "This **** weather, I''m freezing to death, do you have hot coffee, give us a cup to warm up, look at the damage to your tail rudder, it probably can''t be repaired, let the rescue ship of the fleet come up later, and take you Drag it back!" Seeing that Duarte and the others were all wet, and two others were wearing water jackets, they were obviously mechanics who had just entered the water for inspection. The demands of the few people in front of them were also irresistible, so they could only say enthusiastically: "Yes, yes, yes! The weather is already cold and it''s raining. We really need to find a warm place and drink a cup of hot coffee to warm up. Please come with me, let''s go to the cabin to warm up together!" Then, he inadvertently gave an imperceptible look to several figures in the dark, then turned around and took the lead to walk forward. Duarte and the others remained calm, as if they didn''t know anything, shook the rain on the raincoat, and followed the blond middle-aged man. At this time, the House commanded by Fang Lang had already bypassed the Harry and arrived at the position 068 where the signal was lost. Fang Lang had been standing outside the bridge, staring at the sea not far away with a telescope. He couldn''t see it, but Fang Lang''s intuition told him that there was a pair of eyes in the sea not far away, and they were also staring at him. The dark night provided the enemy with a perfect camouflage. Fang Lang finally gave up using the telescope to really see the target. He just needs to know where he is, right? Back to the bridge, Fang Lang picked up the communicator and said: "Combat Information Center, how far are we from the area where the signal disappeared?" "Reporting sir, according to the records, the area where the signal disappeared is about one nautical mile directly in front of us." "Received, finished." Fang Lang turned his head and ordered to the whole ship: "The sound of the gunfire on the Harry is the order to attack. The enemy U-boat is just one nautical mile in front of our ship. All weapons can fire freely after they are within range. Do you understand?" "Understood, sir!" "Sonar, once you open fire, the underwater enemies will definitely move. I hope you can catch them as soon as possible. Remember that it''s not him, but them. There must be a deeper enemy hidden at the stern of the Harry. Be sure to Find him for me! Understand?" "Understood! Sir!" As Fang Lang expected, just one nautical mile directly in front of the House, the commander of a U-boat was using a periscope to stare at the Allied destroyer that was getting closer and closer to him. "Sir, why is this destroyer coming straight towards us, could they have spotted us?" He heard nervous questions from his subordinates. Calhoun was also puzzled. He could understand that the enemy didn''t directly approach the Harry. It is normal for the enemy to want to check around the Harry. But the circle around it is too big! It was even about to circle around his own head, which made him a little vigilant. What he didn''t understand was that they had been silent for such a long time, and it was logically impossible for the enemy to find them. But why do they circle around and get closer and closer to themselves! It''s a pity that he is only a participant in this plan, not the planner. He must implement it according to the plan. (end of this chapter) Chapter 70: Annihilate the enemy Chapter 70 Annihilating the Enemy Calhoun never took his eyes off the periscope, and he had to comfort him: "Don''t worry! No, we are silent the whole time. It is absolutely impossible for the enemy to find us. This should be a coincidence. We just need to wait for the comrades on the Harry to send a signal, and then we will launch an attack. Door dogs, wipe them all out. The rest is cake on our plates, we can eat whatever we want." The crew behind them could only silently pray to their God in their hearts. After all, the enemy ship above was approaching them step by step. This oppressive atmosphere seemed to make the air inside the submarine thicker. It''s a bit out of breath. At this time, on the Harry, Duarte seemed to inadvertently say to the blond middle-aged man who was leading the way: "Why did the people on your ship hide from the guard posts in such a light rain!" The blond-haired middle-aged man''s face changed drastically when he heard it. After all, it is obviously abnormal for such a large warship to only have people like himself. It seems that he has been found. Turning his head, he was about to make a move, but the gunfire sounded behind him first, and then, gunshots sounded like firecrackers from the front and rear of the Harry. Both sides were in a state of high nervousness, ready to fight at any time. When the gunshot rang out, the greeters on the Harry also raised their guns, but they were surprised to find that the people on the House responded faster. Before Duartes voice fell, everyone drew out their pistols and shot at the enemies around them while looking for cover. The speed of reaction was obviously faster than that of the ambush party. Moreover, these people are obviously more familiar with the terrain than themselves, which is also normal. After all, all the layouts of their own warship and this warship are exactly the same. When the few people who were secretly hiding behind them raised their guns to shoot, they were knocked down by the gunshot behind them. What made the German soldiers on the Harry even more desperate was that the personnel waiting in front of them were wiped out by a black shadow emerging from nowhere in front of the warship as soon as they rushed out of the cabin. The firefight lasted no more than five minutes before it stopped. At the cost of four men injured and two killed, the task force on the Howe regained control of the Harry into Allied hands. It turned out that when the traffic boat passed the bow, a group of soldiers who had been sneaking along the side of the traffic boat broke away from the traffic boat and climbed onto the bow of the USS Harry through the anchor chain of the bow. And search all the way to the stern. When Duarte and others called for coffee and left the stern, another team quietly climbed up to the stern through the net rope and followed them secretly. This is a very typical small-scale special forces ship seizure tactic, no need to watch, this is Fang Lang''s ship capture plan based on the special forces tactics learned in later movies. Judging from the results, the tactical goal was achieved. However, the cost of casualties must have exceeded Fang Lang''s expectations. However, this battle can be said to be a classic Marine Corps tactic that can be recorded in history. Accumulated rare practical experience for Fang Lang to train the Marine Corps and special forces in the future. The speed of the bursting bean-like gunfire was far less than the speed of the flames of the gunfire, and at this time, the House was nine nautical miles away from the Harry, and with the sound of the House ship itself, everyone couldn''t understand. The first time Harry heard the gunshots. Fortunately, the lookout post on the House saw the gunfire on the Harry through the binoculars. Immediately notified Fang Lang of the news of the firefight on the Harry. Fang Lang saw the Harry making a move, and ordered without hesitation: "All artillery, aim at the designated target and fire!" The artillery that received the order no longer hesitated, and began to rotate the turret directly, aiming all the artillery at the position of the enemy ship sent by the combat situation center. This sudden change can''t be hidden from Calhoun, who has been staring at the House in the periscope. Although the night was dark, with the help of the moonlight penetrating the rainy night, Calhoun could clearly see the metallic luster reflected by the naval guns on the House when they rotated. Calhoun, who was so frightened, suddenly broke the silence of the U-boat, and exclaimed anxiously: "Close the periscope, angle 20, dive rapidly, direction 302, the second car enters 10." The submarine, which had been tense all the time, immediately became a mess, and everyone immediately began to follow the instructions. Before everyone had any questions, the sound of shells entering the water came from around. The sonar soldiers on the House also responded immediately: "Sir, the bearing is 122, the distance is seven chains, the sound of the enemy submarine diving." After receiving the report from the sonar soldiers, Fang Lang said without hesitation: "Adjust the angle of all artillery, azimuth 122, distance seven chains. Fire coverage." After giving the order, Fang Lang stretched out his head again, looking at the water splashed by shells on the sea close at hand. There was no news of the submarine exploding or sinking. Fang Lang ordered again: "The right torpedo tube, fixed depth 50, azimuth 122, two torpedoes, launch." "It''s sir, bearing 122, fixed depth 50, two torpedoes, launch!" Immediately afterwards, I saw two MK15 thermal power torpedoes, which made two thumps from the torpedo tubes on the ship, and strung into the sea water. Unfortunately, because the distance was too short, the torpedo did not reach the fixed depth immediately, allowing Calhoun to escape. "Sir, the bearing is 122, the distance is six chains, the hydroacoustic effect becomes stronger, the sound of the enemy ship''s propeller is obvious, they are turning, and they want to get into the bottom of our ship." Hearing the sonar''s report, Fang Lang smiled. Just now I was still wondering why the enemy''s submarine didn''t launch torpedoes at me immediately! It turned out that the angle was wrong! However, the two sides are so close now, it is too late for you to turn around and launch a torpedo at yourself! Don''t you want to go through my bottom and launch the torpedo at me from the stern of the boat. This is thinking about farting! The submarine drilled under the destroyer. Isn''t this lighting a lamp in the toilet, looking for death! Thinking of this, Fang Lang ordered without hesitation: "Ten depth charges on the left and right, standard depth, let me sink him." "Yes, sir, standard depth, ten depth charges on the left and right, projectile." Immediately afterwards, there was the sound of depth charges entering the water. Seeing the very regular sound of depth charges entering the water on both sides, Fang Lang couldn''t help thinking to himself, alas! I''m still used to hard times! I''ve been digging around even dropping depth charges, when will I be as bold as Reinhardt! I dont know what is going on with Reinhardt now, its fine if hes dead, but if hes still alive. Knowing that he was saved directly, I don''t know if he will jump into the sea in anger! It would be fun to really jump into the sea, and it would be even more fun to have a camera to take pictures and take them out to enjoy in the future. Although he was on the battlefield, Fang Lang actually started a desertion. It seems that two submarines were sunk, and some people floated up, and they couldn''t find their way. Fortunately, not long after, a loud noise was heard from the bottom of the sea that obviously overshadowed the sound of the depth charges. It is not necessary for Fang Lang to say that everyone knows what is going on. For a while, all the firepower fell into a strange silence as if the pause button was pressed. The searchlights on the ship kept looking for the sea on both sides. Before everyone discovered the oil on the water surface, the sonar reported again: "Sir, there is the sound of a submarine sinking underwater." Fang Lang did not rush to draw conclusions, but continued to wait for the observation post on the sea to confirm the results of the battle. He turned to the sonar soldier and said: "During the whole process, apart from this submarine, didn''t you hear any other abnormalities?" "Report sir, no abnormalities were found." "Then after we''re done, focus on monitoring the rear of the Harry to see if you can find this bastard." "Yes, sir." "Sir, there are oil stains on the right side." The lookout post reported loudly. Everyone looked along the light of the searchlight, and sure enough, not far away, a large piece of oil and sundries surfaced. Everyone looked at Fang Lang, waiting for Fang Lang''s final confirmation. Fang Lang met everyone''s eager eyes, walked to the communicator in the ship and said: "Congratulations, we completed the triple kill, this is the result of our joint efforts, brothers, good job." As Fang Lang''s voice fell, cheers came from the whole ship. It was a little noisy at first, but slowly, it started to rise. When Fang Lang heard it, everyone was cheering in unison: "Long live the captain! Long live the boss!" Hearing everyone''s laughter, Fang Lang smiled reservedly, and said to the driver: "Bearing 253, port rudder ten, we continue to circle around the Harry." Following Fang Lang''s order, the cheers gradually subsided, and everyone began to return to their posts. But it can also be seen from everyone''s excited expressions that the emotions obviously did not subside so quickly. (end of this chapter) Chapter 71: abnormal Chapter 71 Abnormalities The movement of the battle on the House in the distance naturally attracted the attention of the crew on the Harry. Unlike the worried expressions of the crew on the Harry, Duarte and the crew on the House were much calmer, seeming to be far away. Don''t worry about the situation here. Obviously, after these two naval battles, Fang Lang set up a strong message to all the soldiers, which is why many troops have high combat effectiveness. There is an officer who can lead them to continuous victory. The combat power improvement effect is very significant. The crew on the Harry were rescued by Duarte from several cabins at the bottom of the ship. Except for the captain of the Harry, Reinhardt, who was shot in the right leg, and the deputy captain was killed as an example, there was no other loss of personnel. The people who were rescued no longer had the pride of the British nobles, and everyone became dejected and ashamed. It''s a bit of a setback. Originally Duarte wanted to ask the reason why the Harry was hijacked, but after thinking about it, his mission was only to rescue the crew of the Harry, and the officer did not ask him to investigate the reason. But before receiving Fang Lang''s order, Duarte didn''t dare to let the crew of the Harry directly take over the Harry on his own initiative. After all, it is impossible for the Harry to continue fighting without investigating the reason why the Harry was hijacked. The battle on the House was soon decided. Duarte saw the House winning again through the binoculars, and looked at the crew of the Harry under centralized management. An inexplicable sense of pride surged in his heart. . Duarte came to the bridge by himself and connected the communication of the House: "The House is the Harry, please answer." "Harry, House please tell me." "Boss, we have completed the rescue mission of the Harry crew as planned, please give instructions." "Duarte, you did a good job, do we have any casualties?" Fang Lang is most concerned about whether his crew has suffered losses. Hearing Fang Lang ask about his casualties, Duarte replied a little ashamedly: "Report to the boss, two commandos were killed and four were injured." Unexpectedly, in this **** mission, there were no casualties in the naval battle, but two soldiers were killed in order to rescue the Harry, and the injured soldiers did not know whether they could recover their combat effectiveness. However, Fang Lang was not too sad. Soldiers eating food and dying on the battlefield is the destination of soldiers, so there is nothing to be sad about. "How is the crew of the Harry?" "Report to the boss, except for the deputy captain who was killed in action and the captain whose leg was injured, the rest of the crew of the Harry were rescued from the bottom cabin." "How many enemies are there?" "Boss, we killed a total of 30 people from the German navy who hijacked the Harry." Hearing Duarte''s answer, Fang Lang couldn''t help being taken aback. First, he didn''t expect that the 350 crew members of the Harry would be hijacked by 30 Germans, which made him look at the combat effectiveness of the British Empire Navy with admiration. Second, I didn''t expect that my commando of thirty people could wipe out more than thirty people in the German navy. Although, two of his own people were killed and four were injured. But the combat effectiveness of the Germans should not be so bad. Actually, there are many reasons why the commando team was able to go so smoothly. First, the Germans found out that there were only seven or eight rescuers, so they relaxed their vigilance, thinking that their plan had succeeded. It was originally planned to bring everyone into the cabin and then do it to eliminate them. As a result, the so-called rescue of the commando was fake from the beginning to the end. disrupted the enemy''s deployment. And approaching in a concealed manner, the team members who appeared suddenly attacked the enemy from behind, completely making the enemy into a mess. The commandos have been serving on destroyers of the same type and must be more familiar with the terrain than the enemy who has just captured the enemy ship. Therefore, the commando victory is deserved. Hearing Fang Lang fell silent, Duarte had to take the initiative to say: "Boss, what about the crew of the Harry. Do we hand over the Harry to them?" Duarte''s words made Fang Lang ponder again. He is considering whether he needs to directly ask Lieutenant Colonel Becky, the commander of the **** fleet. Just now, I have been worried that the enemy will monitor the communication between the House and the fleet through the Harry, so I have not dared to truthfully report the situation of the Harry to the **** fleet command. But after thinking about it, Fang Lang still decided to understand the reason why the Harry was hijacked. "Duarte, you arrange for two soldiers to transport the main officers of the Harry to the House by a traffic boat. I want to learn from them first. Tell the soldiers, don''t give them a chance to collude, I Need to know the real situation. Got it?" "Yes, boss, I will arrange for soldiers to send him over immediately." The House continued to approach the Harry cautiously, and soon the lookout sent a report that a traffic boat was approaching the House. Hearing the notification, Fang Lang picked up the binoculars, and with the help of the slightly pale sky, Fang Lang saw a traffic boat approaching the House quickly. I don''t know why Fang Lang felt that the Harry was dangerous, and his sixth sense issued a warning again, which made Fang Lang very strange. Why does the Harry, which is already under the control of its own side, still feel dangerous to itself! Fang Lang now believes in his intuition very much. Since his intuition tells him that the Harry is in danger, then the Harry must be in danger. Hastily returned to the bridge to connect to the Harry''s communication. "Duarte, are you sure you have fully taken over the Harry?" Hearing Fang Lang''s question, Duarte was at a loss. Hastily replied: "Boss, yes, the crew of the Harry is now under our control." "Have you checked the number of people?" "It has been checked according to the roster, and all personnel are here." "Prison all the crew members, and conduct a thorough search of the entire ship. See if there are any enemies hiding." Duarte never discounted Fang Lang''s orders. He understood and executed them, and if he didn''t understand, he would execute them without hesitation. So without hesitation: "Yes, boss, execute immediately." Fang Lang raised his binoculars again and looked at the Harry from a distance, trying to see something interesting, but unfortunately, nothing unusual was found. But the sense of danger remains. Soon, the soldiers came to inform the officers of the Harry that all the officers had arrived, and Fang Lang had no time to pay attention, because as the House rotated clockwise around the Harry and approached the stern, Fang Lang''s sense of danger became more and more obvious. Fang Lang ordered without hesitation: "Twenty left rudder." Although he didn''t understand why Fang Lang turned, the driver still followed the instructions without hesitation and turned the ship. As the House began to deviate from its original direction, the danger warning weakened again. This made Fang Lang very strange, and he didn''t understand the reason for this. What kind of secret the Harry is hiding makes him feel this dangerous. Duartes voice came again from the radio: "Boss, we checked all the cabins one by one, and found nothing abnormal, nor did we find any hidden enemies. Please give instructions." Of course Fang Lang believed Duarte''s words, but this also made Fang Lang unable to understand. Since there was no abnormality on board, why did his sixth sense call the police! Fang Lang raised his binoculars again and looked at the Harry. And once again carefully observed the sea area around the Harry, and finally confirmed that my sense of danger still came from the Harry. This puzzled him a lot, but he couldn''t ask the people around him. After all, people wouldn''t believe him when he said something like intuition. So he simply didn''t think too much about it, since Reinhardt had been escorted to his own ship, wouldn''t he know if he asked him himself! What are you thinking about so much! "Duarte, be careful, there must be someone on the side of the radio to report abnormal situations at any time, understand?" "Yes, boss!" Turned around and ordered again: "We detour to the left. All lookout posts, radars, and sonars should pay attention to the situation of the Harry. If there is any abnormality, be sure to notify me as soon as possible." "Yes, sir!" Fang Lang still worriedly raised the binoculars and observed the Harry for a while, then put down the binoculars helplessly. After tidying up his military uniform, he walked towards the cabin where Reinhardt and others were held, hoping to find the reason for his uneasiness in Reinhardt and others. (end of this chapter) Chapter 72: go through Chapter 72 After Reinhardt considers himself an excellent Royal Navy man. He was born in a noble family, and his grandparents and grandchildren have served the Royal Navy of the British Empire for three generations. Both his family background and his own growth experience have proved that he is an excellent soldier. Royal Navy officer. Otherwise, I would not be able to become a captain of a Royal Navy destroyer at the age of thirty. The Royal Navy of the British Empire is not comparable to a grassroots team like the Brazilian Navy. have a good father. Being the captain of a destroyer at such a young age, isn''t this a disregard for human life? How could such a person lead destroyers to victory over the Germans. But the reality is that it is very embarrassing. That damned Brazilian soil turtle can always find enemies that he can''t find, and can easily destroy the enemies. As for the majestic Royal Navy of the British Empire, the excellent destroyer captain is always slipped away by the enemy from under his nose. After finally snatching an enemy from the Brazilian soil softshell, the boat capsizes in the gutter, and the Brazilian wood softshell needs to be rescued. After being taken by the Brazilians to the House, the House did not immediately take further action against him, but no one paid attention to him, as if he simply wanted to imprison him. This is simply an insult to the Royal Navy of the British Empire. It''s a pity that the form is better than people. He is indeed a loser. He has become the bait used by the enemy to lure and kill allies. He can understand that the Brazilians imprisoned himself and others. This is really rubbing his face on the ground! While Reinhardt was still lamenting, a Brazilian military officer came in and interrupted his train of thought. "Mr. Reinhardt, our captain, Mr. Fang Lang, please go over there." Linehardt noticed that this damned **** did not call him officer any more. Could it be that the higher-ups have decided to cancel his position as captain? Soon Reinhardt followed the officer''s guidance to the small conference room of the warship. The officer stepped forward and knocked on the door, only to hear "Come in!" from inside. The officer pushed open the door and led Reinhardt in. Reinhardt saw two people sitting inside, both his classmates. Everyone knows each other. Fang Lang saw Reinhardt coming in, and he didn''t greet him, but said directly: "Major Leonhardt, please sit down! Regarding the situation on the Harry, I need you to give me a complete explanation, please make sure it is true. Because I believe you can understand without saying anything, I will definitely report your situation to the commander of the Allied Forces. It is believed that both the Allied Forces and the Royal Navy need a complete investigation report. Of course, this report will not be issued by me. The reason I am asking you now is that I suspect that there is still an enemy U-boat hidden in the nearby waters. I need to find the answer from you. Hope you can tell the truth. " Looking at Fang Lang and de la Torre in front of him, Reinhardt knew that what Fang Lang said was right. For such a serious problem, he might even be sent to a military court. Although he has always looked down on the Brazilian soil turtles in front of him, he always feels that these soil turtles don''t understand what naval warfare is at all. But now the reality has slapped his arrogance to the ground. It can even be said that his fate is in the hands of the yellow man in front of him, so he can''t help but lower his proud head and put down his noble aristocratic status. Maybe the person in front of me said a few good words to the Allied Forces for himself, and with his familys background in the Royal Navy of the British Empire, this matter can pass quickly! So, he began to correct his attitude, and saluted Fang Lang and de la Torre very formally with a British military salute, and said sincerely: "Major Fang, Captain de la Torre, first of all, thank you for rescuing the Harry and myself. I am very grateful! I sincerely apologize for the loss and injury caused to you for the Harry becoming a trap to lure you. However, please believe me no matter what, I guarantee on my family''s honor that this time is definitely not my will! " Hearing Reinhardt''s official accent and diplomatic rhetoric, Fang Lang stretched out his hand impatiently and interrupted: "Major Leonhardt, we are soldiers. I hope you can answer my question directly. We are not out of danger now. I need to know how the Harry was lost." Seeing Fang Lang''s expression, Reinhardt was a little embarrassed. But he also had to tell what happened exactly according to Fang Lang''s request. It turned out that after Leonhardt led the Harry to **** the task assigned to Fang Lang by the command ship, he happily went to the sea area where the enemy was found. At first Harry did not find the enemy ship. However, after learning the lesson from last time, the Harry did not give up the search directly. Instead, following the example of the House, they went directly to the sea area where the signal disappeared, and dropped two depth charges. They really blasted out the silent enemy ship. Everyone was ecstatic to see the credit close at hand, and wanted to continue to sink the enemy ship. As a result, the enemy ship surfaced out of the water completely out of routine. Just when the Harry was about to blast the opponent into scum with its naval guns, the opponent immediately raised a white flag. This made Reinhardt even more ecstatic. The credit for sinking the enemy ship is not as great as the credit for capturing the enemy ship! Not to mention how many things are worth researching on a U-boat, but the radio station and codebook on the boat, as long as they get the complete ones, this credit can directly upgrade him to a level. Reinhardt agreed to the surrender of the enemy ship without hesitation, and immediately sent his crew to board the ship to accept the surrender of the French side. But the opposing officer said that Reinhardt had insulted his honor, and he only agreed to surrender to the captain of the Harry. It is not acceptable to be directly disarmed by minions. Unexpectedly, the German guy on the opposite side is also a nobleman like himself, and he is still following the tradition of nobility. Everyone is a nobleman, and he should indeed give the other party the same treatment as his status. Therefore, Reinhardt directly agreed that the other party would perform a simple surrender ceremony on the Harry in accordance with the noble tradition, and accept the other party''s surrender. Everything went according to plan, but just when Reinhardt was about to take the opponent''s weapon, an accident happened. A torpedo shot from nowhere directly shot at the stern of the HMS Harry. The bridge of the HMS Harry, which was accepting the surrender of the enemy ship, had no command at all, and watched the torpedo hit the rudder. Then, the enemy who surrendered directly resisted. The commander of the other party directly hijacked Reinhardt and threatened the Harry to surrender, otherwise he would order another submarine to directly sink the Harry. Originally, Reinhardt was very stubborn and directly rejected the unreasonable demands of the enemy. For the honor of the Royal Navy, he would rather sink with the Harry. But the enemy directly shot the head of the deputy captain beside him. When the red and white thing on Mr. Lieutenant''s head splashed all over Reinhardt, Reinhardt had to admit that he was scared and timid. However, in order to maintain the honor of the Royal Navy, he still trembling legs refused the enemy''s request. The cruel enemy didn''t hesitate to shoot Reinhardt in the leg without even saying hello. The sharp pain in his leg completely destroyed all of Reinhardt''s strength. After a huge psychological struggle, considering that if it does not surrender, another submarine may directly sink the HMS Harry. For the safety of the soldiers on the ship, the great Captain Reinhardt weighed the pros and cons repeatedly. Agreed that as long as the brave German navy can guarantee and give him the treatment that matches his noble status, then he is willing to put down his arms and surrender to the German navy decently. No matter how extravagant Reinhardt said, how brave and fearless he portrayed himself, it could not change the fact that he surrendered to the German navy. Fang Lang directly reached out to interrupt his chatter and said: "In other words, there are indeed two German U-boats nearby, right?" "Yes, if it wasn''t for this **** insidious villain who hid in the sea and suddenly hit the stern rudder of the Harry, I would never have done such a dishonorable thing." "Did you see him? Did he surface? At what location do you remember?" "Uh! Well, after we surrendered, we were imprisoned. They didn''t give me the treatment of a noble at all, but locked me with the soldiers." "Stop, I don''t want to know this, I just want to know, do you know the location of the enemy ship!" "Uh! Well! I don''t know, which direction the torpedo came from, I haven''t had time to find out yet." Fang Lang didn''t want to continue to entangle with this so-called British nobleman, so he got up and said to de la Torre: "The enemy ship is still nearby, immediately alert at level one. Let''s go to the bridge." After finishing speaking, he ignored Reinhardt who wanted to continue talking, and got up and left. (end of this chapter) Chapter 73: ask for help Chapter 73 Help Fang Lang, who returned to the bridge, asked the combat situation center, sonar and lookout post again, but found no abnormalities. Can''t help but sigh, this is a real old fox, he knows the enemy is nearby, but he can''t find him. This feeling is really bad. The helpless Fang Lang can only rely on his intuition again, take out the telescope and start searching on the sea again. After looking around, he still finds nothing except that the Harry is still dangerous. Time passed bit by bit, Fang Lang''s eyes were always fixed on the Harry that was parked quietly in place, watching the Harry up and down with the waves. The House approached the stern of the Harry again. In Fang Lang''s heart, the alarm bell rang, and he had to order the House to turn again. At the same time, Fang Lang finally understood where his anxiety came from. Can''t help but start to feel the cunning of this enemy. Fang Lang, who had already guessed in his heart, didn''t hesitate. He went straight back to the bridge and connected to the Harry''s communication: "Duarte, please answer." "Boss, Duarte received!" "Immediately send the personnel in charge of dropping the depth charges on the Harry back to their posts, and order them to drop 20 depth charges to me directly according to the minimum drop depth and the medium drop depth." "Understood, boss, execute immediately." Duarte understood what Fang Lang meant. This was a suspicion that there was another submarine hiding directly under the Harry at this moment. After the order was issued, Fang Lang once again ordered the naval guns on the House to aim at the waters near the Harry, looking for German U-boats that might show up at any time. Just as the naval guns on the House were aimed at the vicinity of the Harry, the depth charges on the Harry began to drop. Soon the sea near the Harry began to boil. The sonar room on the House immediately received good news. "Sir, there is the sound of propellers coming from below the Harry, in the same direction as the Harry." "Don''t worry, since it is indeed as I expected, then he can''t escape, this is just a dying struggle, it is meaningless." Sure enough, as Fang Lang expected, there was no need for the firepower of the House at all. As the depth charges on the Harry exploded one by one, one bomb finally hit the enemy. All jumped a bit. Soon, Duarte on the Harry connected to the communication on the House and confirmed the result. When Fang Lang reported the results of the battle on the communicator of the House, all the crew members of the House were inexplicably excited and clapped their hands in celebration. The officers of the Harry on the ship were dumbfounded. No one expected that the remaining enemy submarine had been quietly lurking on the bottom of the Harry. If the crew of the House hadn''t seized control of the Harry, this enemy would not have been eliminated so easily. . For Fang Lang, it can be regarded as finally letting go of the big rock in his heart. Now that the problem is solved, of course it is time to report the battle situation and results to the command ship. At this moment, De La Torre approached Fang Lang and said that Reinhardt wanted to talk to him. Fang Lang did not refuse this simple request, and returned to the small conference room where he asked Reinhardt again. I saw Reinhardt looking anxiously at the door. As soon as Fang Lang pushed open the door of the conference room, Reinhardt said impatiently: "Major Fang, you have sunk the enemy, I didn''t lie to you, right! You have to believe in my loyalty to the British Empire." "Mr. Reinhardt, I never said that you lied to me, nor did I doubt your loyalty to your British Empire. Why do you ask me to come here, you might as well just say it." Fang Lang didn''t want to listen to the long speeches of this noble aristocrat of the British Empire, talking about nothing nutritious, it was a waste of time. Fang Lang even felt that Reinhardt was suitable to be a diplomat, avoiding the captain of the destroyer. Seeing Fang Lang''s impatient expression, Reinhardt could only end his long speech resentfully, and looked at Fang Lang sincerely and said: "Fang, we are classmates. I wonder if I can borrow the telegraph machine on the ship and send a telegram to my father for the sake of our classmates?" "You know your current situation, do you think your request is reasonable?" Looking at Reinhardt''s pleading expression, Fang Lang wished he could pour a glass of water directly on his face to wake him up. As a detainee, I still want to communicate with the outside world. Isn''t this just wanting to eat farts? "Fang, you have to believe me, I will never do anything to hurt our friendship. I just want to inform my father about my situation. After all, I made a serious mistake and will shame my family , maybe my family will also be implicated because of my surrender. Please help me anyway." Returning friendship, when did we have friendship, Fang Lang kept complaining about Reinhardt''s shamelessness in his heart. At the same time, he began to look at Reinhardt seriously. Seeing this, this kid''s family power is not simple! If this is the case, I am your savior! Shouldn''t you express your gratitude? "Oh! Mr. Reinhardt, I wonder if you can introduce your father''s identity to me. After all, I want to weigh your father''s weight and see if it''s worth it. I''m taking such a big risk." Seeing that Fang Lang wanted to let go, Reinhardt was very excited. If it wasn''t for his leg injury, he would have jumped up directly. "Fang, my friend, I will never forget your friendship. My father was Fett Henderson, Deputy Chief of Staff of the Royal Navy of the British Empire. Three generations of my family have served in the Royal Navy, and my grandfather almost Be Lord of the Admiralty, so trust me in my loyalty to the British Empire." Fang Lang didn''t expect this Reinhardt to have such a big background. No wonder he was like a proud rooster, his eyes almost grew to the top of his head, and he dared to take away the tasks assigned by Lieutenant Colonel Becky, Lieutenant Colonel Becky You can only accept it. "Friendship, friendship is only worth a few dollars." Fang Lang said with a dismissive expression. Now Fang Lang understands that if this kid has such a big background, if he really gets in touch with his father, maybe this time the matter will be suppressed, and the credit for risking his life to rescue will not be all gone up. Looking at Fang Lang''s expression, Reinhardt couldn''t help being taken aback. What do you mean, how much is friendship? Doesn''t he know how beneficial it will be to him to gain his own friendship? "Fang, you have to understand that my family has a strong influence in the British Empire, and gaining our family''s friendship will make your career in the military smooth sailing." "Mr. Reinhardt, I think you have forgotten that I am the Brazilian Navy, not your British Navy. When will your British Navy be able to influence our Brazilian Navy?" Reinhardt only reacted at this time, right! The opponent is not the Royal Navy, which is embarrassing. It seems that the actual benefits should be given directly. "Fang, one hundred thousand dollars, let me send a telegram, and you will get my family''s friendship, you will definitely not lose anything?" In Reinhardts view, one hundred thousand dollars is undoubtedly a huge sum of money. I dont believe that a Brazilian soil turtle can stand the test of such a huge sum of money. It''s a pity that Fang Lang''s answer broke his self-confidence again. "Is one hundred thousand dollars a lot! My family''s business goes up and down one hundred thousand dollars every minute, who do you look down on!" I was taken aback by Fang Lang''s arrogant tone. What kind of business is worth hundreds of thousands of dollars every minute! You are so rich, why do you still serve as a soldier! Aren''t you out of your mind? "Fang, I''m sorry, I definitely didn''t mean to look down on you. Since this is the case, I don''t know how to allow me to contact my family." Seeing that he really had no leverage to impress Fang Lang, he could only hand over the decision to Fang Lang in the end. "Mr. Reinhardt, do you know what will happen to me if I agree with you to send this telegram?" Reinhardt obviously didn''t think about this issue. As a nobleman of the British Empire, his own interests are the most important. Shouldn''t the interests of others make way for himself? Seeing Reinhardt fall silent, Fang Lang said again: "Since Mr. Reinhardt is unwilling to say it, let me say it! You contact your father, for the benefit and honor of your family, what will your father do! If you are not important in your family, then killing you directly, sinking the Harry, and making you a hero who sacrificed for the country will be the best choice. If your position at home is irreplaceable, those of us in the know may never reach the British Empire. Are you sure I should let you send a telegram to your father? " (end of this chapter) Chapter 74: take a gamble Chapter 74 Take a Gamble Hearing Fang Lang''s analysis, Reinhardt''s expression froze, obviously not thinking about Fang Lang''s worries. For a moment I didn''t know how to answer. Just murmured: "Fang, probably not!" Fang Lang looked at Reinhardt with a playful expression and said: "Mr. Reinhardt, did you really not think of it or pretend you didn''t think of it!" Looking at Fang Lang''s expression, Reinhardt had to show his attitude, fearing that Fang Lang might misunderstand his expression, he said: "Fang, I have absolutely no intention of hurting you, please believe me. Ni''s words also reminded me. I am not an essential person in my family. My father has an illegitimate child who is also serving in the navy now." , he is more favored by my father than me. However, because he is an illegitimate child, he has not been recognized by the family, so he does not get much support. Once my affairs are exposed, sacrificing me for the honor of the family is indeed the simplest and most direct way. Fang, please trust me! I swear to God, it never occurred to me to kill someone. I simply wanted to save my military career. " Actually, Fang Lang doesn''t care what Reinhardt thinks at all, because he and Reinhardt are not friends, and have even been discriminated against by Reinhardt many times. If he has the opportunity to fall into trouble, Fang Lang will never be polite. However, as an adult, interests outweigh everything. When Fang Lang heard that Reinhardt''s father was the deputy chief of staff of the Royal Navy of the British Empire, Fang Lang''s first reaction was that if he could know such a character, he would How beneficial it is to his career. Although the British Empire is now in decline, after all, a lean camel is bigger than a horse, and no one can ignore the powerful influence of the British Empire in the world structure. But the risk of this matter is indeed too great, Fang Lang doesn''t dare to take the risk, if one is not good, it may be directly silenced. After hesitating again and again, he still couldn''t come up with a way to avoid risks, so Fang Lang had to give up the idea of ??finding a chestnut out of the fire. "Mr. Reinhardt, whether you have thought about it or not, and no matter what you think, it doesn''t matter to me, because it is absolutely impossible for me to risk the lives of our brothers on the ship for the friendship you mentioned. Gambling tables. Do you understand?" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Reinhardt''s legs softened. His leg was injured and he couldn''t stand at all, so he fell directly to the ground. His face was ashen, he knew he was finished. Fang Lang looked at Reinhardt who fell to the ground like a ball of mud, unable to feel the slightest pity in his heart, and said casually: "Mr. Reinhardt, why are you doing this? You have such a family background, even if you can''t continue to develop in the army, you won''t pay the price of your life. At most, you will transfer to other fields! If you want to do business, I can still help you. Now Britain has just experienced the ravages of war and urgently needs to restore its economy. For the sake of our comrades-in-arms, I can invest in you and make you an important business leader in Britain. " When Reinhardt heard Fang Lang''s words, he shook his head slightly and said: "Fang, thank you for your kindness! It''s a pity that you don''t understand that a family like ours can grow to its current status, and the family''s economic strength does not require me to continue to work hard. Our family has a lot of property and wealth in the UK and overseas territories, but in our family only the patriarch can have the right to speak about all of this. Once I am sent to a military court, all of this has nothing to do with me up. " Reinhardt''s words made Fang Lang''s eyes shine. If the Reinhardt family really owns such a large industry in the UK, gaining his friendship might get a huge reward! "Oh! I wonder what industries your family is mainly engaged in?" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Reinhardt didn''t react immediately, but continued to say with a dull face: "The family owns a lot of minerals in some overseas territories. In the UK, it is mainly engaged in shipbuilding-related industries. It will also undertake some military aircraft manufacturing orders. There are many industries. I don''t know exactly how many industries there are." Reinhardt''s words made Fang Lang speechless for a while. Unexpectedly, this guy didn''t even know what business his family had. He looked up at Fang Lang and said: "Fang, you want to cooperate with my family in an all-round way, right? Fang, I won''t contact my father anymore. As you said, if my father knows about my situation, it is indeed possible to have what you said situation, but my mother will never, because he only has my son, and she will never watch me lose everything that should belong to me." It seems that Reinhardt still hasn''t given up, but Fang Lang can also understand his mentality at this time. Fang Lang smiled helplessly and said: "Mr. Reinhardt, it seems that you have a lot of cards! Could it be that your mother also has such great power! If this is the case, you don''t have to worry about losing your status at all!" Reinhardt knows that Fang Lang is definitely a person who does not see rabbits and does not scatter eagles. If it causes damage to his interests or may harm his interests, he will definitely not help himself. So he said eagerly: "Fang, of course my mother doesn''t have such great power, but my grandfather is Lord Chatfield, who is now the chairman of the wounded evacuation committee in the London area." Fang Lang looked at Reinhardt in front of him speechlessly, who seemed to be in a hurry to go to the doctor, shook his head helplessly and said: "I said Mr. Reinhardt, it''s not that I won''t help you. Are you sure that your grandfather is the chairman of the London Area Wounded Evacuation Committee? Can he rescue you from the current situation?" This time it was Reinhardt''s turn to look at Fang Lang with a strange expression: "Fang, haven''t you heard of this name?" Seeing Reinhardt''s weird expression, Fang Lang looked unlucky, shit! Is the name famous? It''s not the Emperor of England, why should I remember him. Without waiting for Fang Lang to answer, Reinhardt took the initiative to say: "My grandfather served as the First Sea Lord of the Royal Navy and was the Admiral of the Royal Navy. Of course, he has retired now. Although he has no way to directly command the Royal Navy, I believe that with his influence in the Royal Navy, he must There is a way to save me. Moreover, he has no way to directly command the front-line naval forces now, so we don''t have to worry about being silenced. Please help me please! Fang, as long as I can keep my position in the family, I will spare no effort to repay your kindness in the future, I swear in the name of God! " Fang Lang was dazzled by Reinhardt''s background. Damn it, it''s no wonder that this kid always looks like the boss, the second child or the third child. It turns out that he has such a background. If he is reborn to him On the body, isn''t it just Ou Shen directly! I can''t help but sigh that reincarnation is really a technical job! Regarding Reinhardt''s words, Fang Lang couldn''t help but start to seriously consider what kind of risk he would take if he really helped him! What kind of benefits will be obtained? After repeated weighings, Fang Lang had to admit that he was moved. After all, even if the matter of Reinhardt was brought up, he would at most just vent his anger. However, if he is really rescued from this crisis, the benefits he will gain will be predictable. But in order to prevent this kid from crossing the river and destroying the bridge, he must have some real evidence in his hand. Otherwise, when the time comes, he will turn his face and deny anyone. "Mr. Reinhardt, don''t blame me for speaking bluntly. If, as you said, your mother helped you suppress this matter, what would I gain! I risked my life to help you conceal this matter , if you dont admit it after you return to England, wont I be at a big loss? Reinhardt was clearly prepared, and said without hesitation: "Fang, I will write down the true story of the matter and sign it. If I go back on my word, or do anything that violates my promise, then please make him public, and I will definitely be ruined." However, Fang Lang just smiled and said: "Mr. Reinhardt, if you really put such a handle on me, you will have trouble sleeping and eating in the future. Sooner or later, you will start a war with me to destroy this stain. This is not what I want. Yes, what I want is true friendship. So, I decided to take a gamble!" Fang Lang''s words stunned Reinhardt. He obviously didn''t expect to go as far as what Fang Lang said, so his face changed and he was about to explain. However, seeing Fang Lang raised his hand to stop him from speaking, he looked at Fang Lang with a puzzled expression, waiting for his next words. (end of this chapter) Chapter 75: Reinhardts gift Chapter 75 Reinhardt''s gift As Fang Lang said, if he really has a confession of Reinhardt, then even if Reinhardt repays him in the future, he will be reluctant. Moreover, there is also the worry that Reinhardt will do some extreme actions in order to get back this confession. Anyway, even if Reinhardt crossed the river and demolished the bridge, Fang Lang wouldn''t suffer much. It''s better to be more atmospheric. Although this does not guarantee that Reinhardt will not be concerned about this matter in the future, at least he will not be blamed for this matter. "So I decided, when this incident has never happened. I will arrange for someone to send you back to the Harry and withdraw my crew. And, I will issue a gag order to my crew. I just completed the rescue of the HMS Harry and sank two German subs. As for what happened on your ship, I don''t know anything. How you report what happened to your superiors and how to appease your crew is your own business. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Reinhardt completely ignored the injury on his leg, got up from the ground and said: "Fang, are you serious? Didn''t you report the abnormal discovery of the Harry to the command ship earlier?" Fang Lang smiled and stepped forward to support Reinhardt and said: "Since the German devils have controlled the Harry! If I report to the command ship, won''t they be able to monitor it from the Harry? If so, they will know that I have discovered the abnormality of the Harry. If the trap is seen through, they will definitely attack directly! I am a destroyer, but I am not sure to face the siege of two U-boats and a destroyer directly. " As he spoke, he patted Reinhardt''s arm, which was visibly trembling from excitement. When Reinhardt heard Fang Lang''s words, his whole body trembled, he was so excited that he couldn''t speak, his face flushed, and tears began to flash in his eyes. He looked at Fang Lang blankly, and after a long while, he slapped him With a trembling voice on his own face: "Fang, I''m sorry! I have always looked down on you and even discriminated against you. I never thought you could help me like this. I apologize to you for my arrogance and prejudice. I apologize to you for discriminating against you because of your skin color. Apologize. Starting today, you are my savior, Reinhardt. I will prove this kindness with actions. You will never be disappointed. " Seeing Reinhardt''s expression, Fang Lang knew that he was serious, but Fang Lang didn''t care if it was true or not. Since he decided to take a gamble, he must simply give the favor to the end. So after hearing what Reinhardt said, Fang Lang patted him on the shoulder and said: "Okay, Reinhardt, since I said it, I will treat it as if it never happened, and I will do what I say. The problem you have to worry about now is not on my side. I can assure you that in House On the account, if I set a password, no news will be spread. However, whether the personnel on the Harry will speak out is not something I can guarantee. So I suggest that you still think about how to make the crew of the Harry forget this unpleasant experience! " Obviously Fang Lang''s words hit Leonhardt''s pain point. Not many people on the House knew what happened to the Harry, but all the more than 300 people on the Harry were detained by the enemy. Among them, will there be anyone who is unwilling to surrender! Undoubtedly, there must be some, so these personnel will definitely be worried about the matter of Reinhardt''s order to surrender, and they may bring this matter up after they land on the shore. In this case, the deal reached by Reinhardt and Fang Lang will inevitably fall through, which is something neither of them wants to see. Therefore, after a long consideration, Reinhardt decided to send a telegram to his mother as originally planned. Fang Lang directly lent the telegraph room to Reinhardt, turned around and began to clean up the matter. First, he directly reported to the command ship that he had successfully completed the rescue mission of the Harry, and sunk the two German submarines that were in ambush. Due to the damage to the stern rudder of the Harry, it was impossible to continue driving, and it needed to be towed by a rescue ship. After Fang Lang''s report was completed, he sent Reinhardt, who had already contacted his mother and completed the communication, back to the Harry, and took it back to Dual special people. Fortunately, the four injured on the Harry were all slightly injured, and they were treated by the military doctor on the Harry in time. There was no major problem. But the two sacrificed soldiers really made Fang Lang very sad. This was the first time that Fang Lang''s soldiers suffered casualties after he was reborn. For this reason, Fang Lang presided over a solemn sea burial ceremony for the two soldiers, and promised in front of the entire ship''s officers and soldiers that in addition to the Brazilian government''s pension, he would pay a death subsidy of 10,000 US dollars for each of the two soldiers, In recognition of their bravery. All the soldiers looked at Fang Lang eagerly. After all, ten thousand dollars is not a small sum at this time. Fortunately, Brazil is not a country where fighting often occurs. Otherwise, if his subordinates always suffer casualties, Fang Lang can''t stand it. In this way, after another three or four days of sailing, the transport fleet finally entered the combat radius of the British Air Force, and British Air Force aircraft were protecting the fleet along the way. It made Fang Lang very nervous, fearing that Reinhardt''s family would come over to silence him, and he was so scared that he ordered all the air defense firepower to maintain a first-level combat readiness throughout the whole process. Time passed quietly in Fang Lang''s fear, and soon the fleet finally arrived safely in Plymouth, England. The **** lost a total of five transport ships, and two **** destroyers were injured, and the **** mission was successfully completed. According to Fang Lang''s prediction, after this voyage is over, they will not have any more tasks. After all, the Germans will soon surrender. While Fang Lang was waiting for further orders, Leonhardt boarded the House again. After this period of training, Leonhardt has completely recovered to the high-spirited state when Fang Lang just saw him . In a limousine, he drove directly to the gangway of the House, and the crew of the House thought that some great figure was coming, so they immediately ran into the cabin and called Fang Lang out. It turned out that it was Reinhardt , Everyone is curling their lips, so they ignore it. Reinhardt stepped forward and gave Fang Lang a warm hug without caring, and didn''t care about the etiquette of a British gentleman at all: "Fang, secretly tell you some good news." Looking at the Reinhardt in front of him, Fang Lang almost didn''t dare to recognize it. After all, this is very different from the Reinhardt in Fang Lang''s original impression. Of course, Fang Lang is happy to see this change in Reinhardt. , who doesn''t want to have a few more friends! "Oh! Is your own matter settled? Congratulations!" Linehard laughed loudly and said: "All my matters were settled before docking. This is not the good news I want to say today." "Oh! Any better news?" "Brother, the Germans are surrendering. Isn''t that good news?" Reinhardt''s words startled Fang Lang, is this kid so well-informed? It should be still negotiating now! Is it confirmed now? Can''t help looking at Reinhardt with a look of surprise. "how do you know!" "Haha. Brother, have you forgotten my family background? Of course, this news is not the main good news I want to tell you." "Is there any better news than the surrender of the Germans, after all, we can go home with peace of mind now." "Brother, although I know that you sank four German U-boats this time, it is enough for you to go back and upgrade one level. However, as your friend, I have won a benefit for you." Linehardt looked at Fang Lang proudly, obviously very satisfied with the gift he prepared, and very confident that Fang Lang would be very satisfied. Looking at his expression, Fang Lang couldn''t help but look forward to it. "Okay! Don''t be a fool, you kid, and tell me if you have any good news." "Haha. This gift guarantees that you will be satisfied. Didn''t I just tell you that the Germans are about to surrender? To be precise, the German General Doenitz will order all German submarines on May 8th, which is the day after tomorrow. Come up and surrender to the great Royal Navy of the British Empire." "Surrender to you, what does it have to do with me!" "Brother, of course I can''t forget you for such a good thing. So, I convinced my father that we will go to the Atlantic Ocean together and accept the surrender of two U-boats, one of which is the song I gave you A gift. How about this gift? Are you satisfied?" It took Fang Lang a while to realize what Reinhardt said. Of course Fang Lang was very happy about this kind of good thing. He couldn''t suppress the joy in his heart anymore, and said in a low voice: "You mean, when the time comes, I can take a U-boat as my trophy back to Brazil, right?" "Haha. Of course, brother, what''s up, are you satisfied with this gift?" Of course Fang Lang is very satisfied with this gift from Reinhardt, this is a famous U-boat! (end of this chapter) Chapter 76: family dinner invitation Chapter 76 Family Banquet Invitation Fang Lang didn''t expect to receive Reinhardt''s feedback so soon, and couldn''t help being happy for his decision, but Fang Lang didn''t want Reinhardt to pay back the favor so soon, and of course also considered that if he wanted to get real Everyone in friendship should compare their hearts with each other, so although Fang Lang liked this gift very much, he had to hesitate: "Linehardt, is this okay? Will it have any bad effects on you or your family? After all, this should have belonged to your booty, and it was given to our Brazilian Navy by you." Hearing Fang Lang''s worry, Reinhardt was also taken aback, took a deep look at Fang Lang and said: "Fang, you are indeed a good friend. Even in the face of such temptations, you are still thinking about me. But please rest assured, we are friends and also allies. The Germans ordered their submarine force to surrender to the British Empire. Will the Americans not accept it? So, you don''t have to worry about it at all. Even if everyone finds out that you have captured a U-boat afterwards, who would dare to ask to go back? I believe your Brazilian government will not agree either! Even if the Brazilian government agrees, will your navy be willing? So you don''t have to worry about this problem at all. Besides, as long as you don''t publicize this matter, it won''t attract the attention of others. " Seeing Reinhardt''s attitude, Fang Lang knew that they had already thought it through, so he didn''t say hypocritically: "Since this is the case, then I will not be polite, when are we going to leave!" "Well! Wait a moment, my Harry is still under repair, but it should be completed tomorrow afternoon. Then we can set off. There is one more thing to come here today, that is, my mother wants to invite you to the house , to participate in a family banquet, I dont know if you can appreciate it. Seeing Reinhardt''s expectant expression, Fang Lang laughed and said: "Really? That''s really an honor. But I''m not familiar with this place, so I don''t know if there are any suitable stores nearby. I''ll go find a suitable gift right away. When is the family dinner scheduled?" Fang Lang''s straightforwardness made Reinhardt very happy. He did not expect that Fang Lang would agree to attend his family banquet without hesitation. To be honest, this was the first time Reinhardt invited a non-noble to dinner at home, and he was very worried about British The etiquette will allow, Fang Lang is not used to it. Actually, Reinhardt was completely overwhelmed. Fang Lang even experienced the Brazilian hostess inviting him to take a bath together. What else could Fang Lang not accept! "Fang, this time it''s mainly my mother, thanking you for my affairs, so you don''t need to prepare a special gift. It is the best gift if you can honor your presence. My father and grandfather are both in London, so this is not a usual tea party and banquet, but a simple family dinner, I hope you will not feel neglected. " After hearing Reinhardt''s words, Fang Lang also let out a sigh of relief, thinking, it''s not that your British nobles are the best, otherwise, I really can''t get used to it. "Hi! Leonhardt is not neglecting. I came to the UK. As a friend, I should visit your house. We are friends. Don''t pay too much attention to these. I remembered that there was a bottle on my boat that I bought in the United States. Whiskey, very good, when shall we go." Reinhardt was obviously not used to Fang Lang''s straightforwardness, and quickly said: "If it''s convenient for you, we can go now. My mother has prepared the best steak and fried fish, which are guaranteed to be delicious." Hearing that Reinhardt praised his mother for preparing British-style food, Fang Lang couldn''t help curling his lips. As a food desert, who gave you the courage to make you feel that British food can conquer the picky taste buds of Chinese people. However, as a friend, Fang Lang will definitely not show it. After all, when someone invites you warmly, you can''t be picky about the food carefully prepared by others. This is the most basic courtesy. "Then you wait, I''ll go change clothes, get a gift and we''ll set off." Linehardt''s home in Plymouth is obviously just a country holiday villa. The house doesn''t look very old and doesn''t have that sense of historical precipitation, but the whole house is made of stones, obviously a lot of investment. When Fang Lang came to the door in Reinhardt''s car, a very well-dressed woman was already standing at the door of the house waiting. Under the introduction of Reinhardt, Fang Lang presented the whiskey he brought, and as the two entered the room, unexpectedly, the country house that looked very ordinary on the outside was decorated very luxuriously on the inside, which made Fang Lang sigh with emotion , the British aristocracy is just different. Maybe the topic to be discussed today is relatively private, so no outsiders are present at home. However, Fang Lang can tell that you should have servants to take care of your usual villa. After saying hello to each other, Fang Lang came directly to a long dining table under the guidance of the two. Fang Lang is not polite, after all, the British are not Chinese, so there is no need to pay attention to humility. I don''t know if he was tired of eating the food on the warship for a long time, but Fang Lang actually felt that the legendary bad British food was not bad. Several people chatted about the weather in the UK for a while, and the economic environment in the UK for a while. While chatting, I don''t know whether it was intentional or unintentional, Leonhardt''s mother, Mrs. Henderson, unexpectedly brought up the topic of Fang Lang''s business. "Ms. Henderson, in fact, our family is mainly engaged in some shipping-related business. Some time ago, we just established several companies in the United States and want to expand our business, mainly in shipbuilding, logistics, and supporting docks." "Oh! Mr. Fang''s family also wants to enter the shipbuilding industry? This is our family''s advantageous industry. If necessary, maybe we can provide some help." Hearing Mrs. Henderson''s words, Fang Lang couldn''t help being taken aback, and immediately understood what she meant. She wanted to express her gratitude. However, what Fang Lang wants to intervene is not the traditional cargo ship, but will directly eliminate the old technology and open up a new road. But thinking about the background of the Reinhardt family, Fang Lang felt that maybe he could find a partner directly in the UK. As for the strength of the partner, he was not worried, everyone was talking about business. If the Reinhardt family is strong, then at worst, I will give you a little more shares. If the strength is not enough, then I am sorry. I can only let you follow and drink some soup. "Mrs. Henderson, our family''s shipbuilding industry may have a huge impact on the traditional shipbuilding industry. If you want, I can introduce your company to our company, and together we will establish a brand new shipbuilding enterprise in the UK. Well, I assure you, this shipbuilding company will soon become, bar none, the largest shipbuilding company in the UK." Fang Lang''s confident speech made Mrs. Henderson frowned, and she began to feel that Fang Lang was a Brazilian. If you hadn''t saved my son, I wouldn''t be here listening to these arrogant speeches. Reinhardt also looked at Fang Lang with a look of surprise. In his limited contact with Fang Lang, he didn''t realize that Fang Lang had such a side. Fang Lang naturally had a panoramic view of the expressions of the two of them. Fang Lang couldn''t help but care about it, but since he does have plans to open up markets in traditional European and American powers like the UK, it is naturally a good thing to further bundle the interests of both parties through this shipyard. So, Fang Lang directly explained to the two of them the ideas of the container designed by the shipbuilding company he established in the United States in detail. After listening to Fang Lang''s explanation, Mrs. Henderson and Reinhardt''s expressions changed drastically, and they looked at Fang Lang in shock and said: "Mr. Fang, is what you said true? If what you said is realized, all the current freighters will be eliminated directly, my God! God, this is really incredible." "Hey! Fang, I didn''t expect your company to have such a big killer. If you really plan to build container ships in the UK, I hope that the family business will have the opportunity to participate." Fang Lang smiled slightly and said: "As a friend, of course it is impossible for me to deceive you, but you still need to discuss the specific cooperation plan with the company yourself. I don''t want to get involved too much in this kind of thing. But I will introduce you to them, so that at least you have already seized the opportunity." Ms. Henderson said with a helpless smile: "Mr. Fang, originally to thank you for everything you have done for Reinhardt, I also wanted to help your company. I didn''t expect to hear such amazing news from you in the end. Thank you so much. Tomorrow, I will ask people from the company to take the initiative to contact you with Global Shipbuilding. You can rest assured that we will show the greatest sincerity to facilitate this cooperation. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 77: back road Chapter 77 Back Road For Fang Lang, the family dinner at Reinhardt''s house was quite rewarding, after all, he also found a partner for the company in the UK. Most importantly, if the company''s cooperation is reached, the relationship between the two will be closer. Fang Lang, who returned to the House, directly contacted Colonel Parisi, and explained to Mr. Colonel that he would be invited to participate in receiving the surrender of German submarines, and that he might get a German U-boat as a trophy. "Fang, are you serious? You mean our Brazilian Navy will have a chance to get a German U-boat, which is unbelievable." Colonel Parisi was obviously very shocked that Fang Lang was able to obtain a German U-boat. This is a big killer! With this thing, the Germans tossed the Allies into sleepless nights. With the use of submarines by the Germans, the whole world has begun to pay attention to the role of submarines. At this time, Brazil did not have a submarine! "To be precise, I will have the opportunity to obtain a U-boat as a trophy. As for whether this U-boat belongs to the Brazilian Navy, it depends on the situation." This is a loot obtained by Fang Lang''s own relationship, and it is not a normal battlefield capture. Fang Lang will not directly give him to the Brazilian Navy for free. Don''t talk about selling money, at least your Brazilian government should show something! Otherwise, I don''t want Reinhardt to give this gift easily. In any case, this is also a favor he owes himself. "Fang, I understand what you mean. I will contact General Morais immediately to see what he thinks. If you need it, I will help you find a suitable submarine crew right now." Colonel Parisi is also a smart man, how much contribution your Brazilian navy has made in naval battles! Why did the Allies allocate a U-boat to you as a trophy. Now that Fang Lang has the opportunity to be invited to participate in receiving German submarines, it can only show that Fang Lang''s background in the Allied Forces is unfathomable. Even the commander of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force didn''t know that the Germans were about to surrender, and Fang Lang had already learned about it in advance. But this is his personal relationship, and there is no reason for Fang Lang to make personal contributions to the Brazilian Navy. But Colonel Parisi said that he wanted to find submarine soldiers for Fang Lang, but Fang Lang was a little alert. "As far as I know, we don''t have a submarine force in Brazil yet! Where can you find suitable candidates!" Parisi was indeed too excited, and did not hear Fang Lang''s vigilance from Fang Lang''s words. "Although we don''t have suitable submarine crews, we still have basic sailors! Commander, of course you need to solve the problem yourself, but you definitely need basic sailors! It needs to be supplemented!" Hearing that Parisi said that the commander and the officer should solve it by themselves, Fang Lang only slightly let go of his guard. "Yes, but all personnel must go through my personal interview." Parisi finally heard Fang Lang''s precautions from Fang Lang''s words that needed to be interviewed in person. But he was not angry, instead he laughed and said: "Haha Fang, don''t worry! If I want to install my own personnel, I can''t be so blatant. I will only find you real soldiers in the Brazilian Navy. You and I are good friends, only when you become stronger, no one dares to touch me easily, right? Have you ever thought about what to do after the war. Some things are not convenient for you to come forward, but you can tell me, and I will help you come forward and communicate with the higher authorities. " This can be regarded as Colonel Parisi really thinking about Fang Lang. Now that it has been determined that Germany is about to surrender, it is definitely time to plan ahead and start thinking about things after returning home. Fang Lang actually doesn''t know much about Brazil''s situation, nor does he know how to choose the most suitable one in his current situation. Since Colonel Parisi brought it up on his own initiative, it is of course necessary to listen to the suggestion of the old Brazilian navy. "I don''t know if Colonel Parisi has any good suggestions! I don''t know the situation of the Brazilian Navy, and I don''t know what kind of position I can take after returning home." Regarding Fang Lang''s sincere attitude to ask himself for advice, Colonel Parisi also knew everything. "Fang, we are brothers. With your record, I believe you will become a lieutenant colonel soon. If you become a lieutenant colonel, you will be qualified to form your own squadron. Judging from the current situation, your squadron is definitely the most effective force in the Brazilian Navy. Based on my knowledge of the Brazilian Navy Staff, you will most likely be transferred to the Rio base. After all, Rio is the capital of Brazil, and it is possible to have such a dog that has experienced actual combat. Moreover, the presence of a powerful naval force will undoubtedly provide a strong guarantee for Rio''s security. I know you have a close relationship with Colonel Tichi in Rio, however, I advise you not to go to Rio. " Fang Lang didn''t expect that Colonel Parisi would advise him not to go to Rio, and he couldn''t help asking: "Oh! Why is this, isn''t the garrison in the capital not good?" Colonel Parisi obviously smelled something bad in advance. "Because, Rio is a powder keg that could explode at any moment. I''m not sure if you''ll be affected by staying in Rio." As a reborn person, Fang Lang knew that in October, there would be a military coup in Brazil, and President Vargas would be forced to step down. It seems that Colonel Parisi, as Mr. President''s man, has already spotted some bad signs in advance. "What about your suggestion?" Unexpectedly, Fang Lang didn''t ask himself why Rio was a powder keg, but directly asked for his own advice. This shows that Fang Lang may also know some news. However, since Parisi had decided to leave, he didn''t ask Fang Lang anything, but directly gave his own suggestion. "Of course, stay away from the vortex of right and wrong, and find a place to be your own emperor! There are three places that are very suitable for you. One is Natal, which is located in the northeast corner of Brazil and is the closest to Europe and the United States. Moreover, there is a transit base established by the U.S. military to support the European battlefield. With the withdrawal of the U.S. military, complete infrastructure will be left behind. The other is my hometown of Rio Grande do Sul, which is located at the southernmost tip of Brazil and is the closest to our biggest competitor in South America, Argentina. However, the infrastructure is not perfect, and the port conditions are not suitable as a military port. The other one is Paranagua in the state of Parana. This place is located in the north of Rio Grande do Sul. There is a seaport in southern Brazil that is most suitable as a military port, but it has not been effectively developed. Of course, you can also see if there is a better place in your mind. You put forward your own ideas, and I will be responsible for helping you coordinate. However, I have no way to guarantee that it will be successful in the end. " Colonel Parisi''s suggestion coincided with some of Fang Lang''s ideas. However, the ports given were not in line with Fang Lang''s wishes, so he directly asked the location in his mind. "Can''t Santos Port work?" Parisi was obviously not surprised by Fang Lang''s location. Apparently, he considered the position as well, but it was ultimately rejected. "It doesn''t mean that it can''t be done. At present, the most developed city in Brazil, apart from Rio de Janeiro, is Sao Paulo. If you choose to base yourself in the port of Santos, you will be too close to Sao Paulo, which is not necessarily a good thing. " It turns out that Colonel Parisi''s scruples are here. If this is the case, Fang Lang is not worried. How can he say that he has so many investments in St. Paul. Moreover, it has relations with the local garrison and police. In addition, if his fleet is stationed nearby, he really wants to see who dares to touch his beard. My home is in Sao Paulo, of course I hope to be stationed in Sao Paulo for a long time. So Colonel Parisi first helped to see if he could negotiate with the Admiralty for me to be stationed in my hometown in the future. " Seeing that Fang Lang had already made his own decision, Colonel Parisi would of course not say anything more. You just need to regard yourself as a middleman and convey Fang Lang''s ideas. As for what General Morais would think about, it was not for him to express his opinion. His relationship with the Brazilian Navy Department has been gradually marginalized, so it is estimated that he can''t do much. "If you insist, then I will come forward and talk to General Morais first, but this is a matter for the Admiralty after all. General Morais may be able to make suggestions, but it may not be successful." (end of this chapter) Chapter 78: Surrender Chapter 78 Surrender On May 7, 1945, German Admiral General D?nitz announced the unconditional surrender of Germany. In the early morning of May 8, Fang Lang led the Haus into the North Sea with Reinhardt''s Harry. According to the position provided by the German Navy Ministry, he was preparing to receive two German submarines that were about to be ordered to float and surrender. Reinhardt was very excited from the beginning of the departure. He directly dropped his battleship and came to Fang Lang''s House to chat and fart with Fang Lang to enhance their relationship. He seemed not worried about the German submarine that was about to surrender. However, as far as Fang Lang knows, not all submarines followed the orders of the German Navy Ministry and chose to surrender without hesitation. Some German submarines refused to surrender and chose to sink together with the ship, some German submarines chose to drop their personnel and surrender before sinking the ship, and some even directly refused to surrender and chose to resist to the death. Therefore, Fang Lang had to remind Reinhardt very unsightly: "Leinhardt, you don''t really think that we just simply arrive at the designated location this time, and the nearby German submarines will automatically and consciously float up and surrender!" As a British nobleman, Reinhardt didn''t think that that fool would make a fearless resistance when the government had announced its surrender. "Fang, are you still worried about those Germans daring to disobey orders and rebel? The whole of Germany has surrendered, so what''s the point of rebelling by themselves!" Fang Lang knew that most Germans obeyed the order and chose to raise their hands and surrender. However, there are some exceptions. Although Fang Lang didn''t want to encounter such a special case, but the world is impermanent, who can say such things for sure! "Please don''t ignore a soldier''s determination to die for his country." Now in Reinhardt''s mind, Fang Lang''s words are no longer as insignificant as before. No matter whether it is Fang Lang''s record in one battle or the relationship between Fang Lang and him, he is not allowed to ignore Fang Lang''s words. So, after hearing what Fang Lang said, Reinhardt couldn''t help but fell into thinking, and soon began to change his thinking, and discussed with Fang Lang about the solution if he encountered an abnormal situation. The time soon came to around 5:00 pm on May 8th. The Harry and the House came to the waters about 200 nautical miles away from the United Kingdom towards Norway. Sure enough, under the radar scan, two floating German submarines were found. The distance between the two German submarines was not far, and Fang Lang soon heard the communication from the Harry to the two German submarines from the public communication channel. "Listen to the two German U-boats on the opposite side. This is the destroyer HMS Harry of the Royal Navy of the British Empire. Our ship has been ordered to accept your surrender. Please turn off the engine and ensure that all personnel are disarmed and lined up on the deck, waiting for our ship to inspect. . "This is the Fourth Submarine Squadron of the German Third Reich Navy. Submarines U2546 and U554 surrendered to the British Empire Navy in accordance with the order of Admiral Doenitz of the Imperial Navy. Please ensure that all members of our ship receive due punishment. treatment." As the distance got closer, Fang Lang quickly noticed that there were two submarines, one large and one small, and there were already a large number of crew members lining up on the submarines, waiting for inspection by the landing fleet. According to the tactics discussed by Fang Lang and Reinhardt, the Harry will first receive a submarine to surrender, and the House will be responsible for guarding in the distance. I dont know whether Reinhardt chose to accept the surrender of the smaller submarine intentionally or unintentionally, because, according to the agreement between the two, whoever surrendered the warship belongs to whom. According to Reinhardt''s approach, Fang Lang will undoubtedly gain a lot. Because, whether it is a surface ship or an underwater ship, the tonnage and combat effectiveness are often directly proportional. German submarines must also conform to this rule, although Fang Lang knows that the two submarines in front of him must be German ocean-going submarines, and they belong to the top part of the world. However, Reinhardt was able to leave the bigger one to Fang Lang, which made Fang Lang somewhat worried. After all, Fang Lang was able to clearly see the larger submarine from the telescope. Both the number of crew and the tonnage were significantly larger than the one received by Reinhardt. What surprised Fang Lang the most was that the streamlined hull of this large submarine was obviously rounder than the other one, which also meant that this submarine was obviously more advanced. It seems that Fang Lang can''t accept Reinhardt''s love. Now Fang Lang is more worried about whether he can take this submarine away. From Fang Lang''s point of view, this submarine is definitely the most advanced in Germany at present. representative of the submarine. If Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union knew that such a German submarine had fallen into the hands of Brazil, the little brother, would they take it away directly? However, these are not issues that Fang Lang needs to worry about now. It is the kingly way to get the spoils in your hands first. The big deal is that you dont go back to the UK after you get it, and you go back to Brazil to pull it down. Fang Lang stared closely at the landing operation of the Harry through the telescope. Perhaps he had learned the lesson from the last time. This time, Reinhardt was very careful, first arranging a group of commandos to board the enemy submarine directly. After confiscating all the weapons of all personnel, they entered the interior of the submarine to search. The entire surrender of Reinhardt went very smoothly this time. It is obvious that these Germans have accepted the fact of surrender and no longer make unnecessary struggles. This also made Fang Lang feel relieved. Soon Reinhardt completely controlled the enemy''s submarine, and after transporting some personnel to the Harry for custody, he notified Fang Lang that he could start receiving other submarines to surrender, and the Harry was in charge of guarding. Fang Lang also moved the House close to the large German submarine with excitement, keeping it side by side with the German submarine, then put down the two transportation boats, and Duarte led the commando to board the ship again. Through the telescope, Fang Lang could see that after Duarte boarded the enemy submarine, it obviously caused a commotion. Some officers and soldiers on the German submarine did not maintain the same strict military appearance as when the Harry was surrendered, but appeared There was a commotion. This made Fang Lang frowned, and directly ordered all the naval guns to aim at the enemy ship. Fortunately, Duarte fired a shot at the sky in time to stop the riot. Then, Duarte handcuffed several of them before transporting some of the crew on the submarine to the House in batches. Following the report of the soldiers who brought back the captives, Fang Lang knew what happened. It turned out that the crew on the German submarine discovered that the ship was not the British Navy but the Brazilian Navy. Captain Lambros Hodge directly stated that he only agreed to surrender to the British Navy and did not agree to surrender to the little-known Brazilian Navy. The navy surrenders. It was Duarte who directly fired shots to suppress them before quieting them down. Duarte was worried that they would hinder the surrender, so he tied them up. This made Fang Lang very angry. These German guys surrendered, and they were even picky. The angry Fang Lang directly sank everyone into the sea and brought him down on the charge of refusing to surrender. But thinking about knowing the specific information of the submarine from the captain, it is also suppressing the anger. Order de la Torre as the new captain to receive the enemy submarine. And he was quietly waiting for the captain of the new submarine to be escorted up. He wanted to meet this proud German. The Germans had already announced their surrender, but they still couldn''t see the situation clearly. Soon, the captain of the German submarine, Lambros Hodge, was escorted aboard the House. What Fang Lang didn''t know was that the submarine with the boat number U2546 belonged to the latest German U21 submarine. It was a new submarine that was officially launched in May 1944. A total of 119 submarines of this type were built, and 106 were destroyed, most of which were destroyed on the berth. So, in fact, only 13 ships remained. From this we can see how precious this submarine is. It is the embryonic form of modern submarines. After World War II, the world''s first drop-shaped submarine and the first nuclear submarine were largely influenced by it. Although Fang Lang still doesn''t know the specific situation of this submarine, this does not prevent Fang Lang from paying attention to the captain of the latest German submarine. After all, there are no submarines in Brazil now. Although Fang Lang arranged for de la Torre to receive the submarine, he believed that with the cooperation of the crew of the original submarine, de la Torre could quickly learn to drive the submarine. However, being able to drive a submarine and making the submarine form combat effectiveness are two completely different concepts. This is like the difference between being able to fly a plane and being able to fly a fighter jet. If possible, Fang Lang hopes to keep the submarine officer and train the submarine officer for himself. This is a rare German submarine soldier who has experienced actual combat. (end of this chapter) Chapter 79: means Chapter 79 Means While Fang Lang was still dreaming about how to make his submarine into a combat force, the voice of the first officer Amar Reina came from behind: "Boss, the crew of all German submarines have assembled, and the surrender ceremony can begin." Hearing Reina''s report, Fang Lang didn''t hesitate, turned around and said: "Let''s go, let''s meet this arrogant German guy." Soon, with the arrival of Fang Lang, all the crew of the House saluted neatly, and the surrender ceremony officially began. But when everyone was ready, things repeated again. When Bros. Hodge saw Fang Lang''s arrival, he had a disgusted expression on his face. He didn''t seem to want to continue the surrender ceremony at all. Fang Lang was too familiar with the expression of the captain. This is the obvious racial discrimination after seeing Fang Lang''s complexion. Fang Lang didn''t expect that as a defeated prisoner, he would dare to discriminate against the enemy troops who came over and surrendered. This is something that can only be done with a deep brain! Originally, Fang Lang wanted to keep him to train submarine officers for himself, but seeing this situation, Fang Lang knew that he was thinking too much. As the military officer of the victorious country, Lang will not be used to his problems. Go straight forward, come to Captain Hodge and say: "Mr. Captain, it seems that you are not going to surrender to me, are you!" Captain Hodge raised his head with disdain, glanced at Fang Lang from the corner of his eye, and said coldly: "Why should I surrender to you!" Fang Lang shook his head and smiled. All the German submarine officers around saw Fang Lang''s expression, and couldn''t help but also started to disdain them, thinking that he was some kind of remarkable person, but after Captain Hodge ignored it, they still had the face to smile. As for the crew on the House, many people have already raised their guns and aimed at these German submariners. Some crew members also started to look playful. Although, due to the proportion of white population in Brazil, discrimination is not as serious as in Europe and the United States. However, now that Fang Lang is still able to laugh after being humiliated by the enemy in this way, some people have begun to look down on Fang Lang in their hearts. "Since Mr. Captain is unwilling to surrender to me, then forget it." Fang Lang said with a smile. Immediately, he moved Captain Hodge''s face away with a heavy expression, looked at the German soldiers standing behind Captain Hodge and said: "I''ll give you another captain, you probably won''t mind!" The German soldiers looked at the Brazilian officer in front of them inexplicably, thinking in their hearts, you are probably sick! We are the German Navy, and if we want to change the captain, we need the German Navy to order! What''s the use of your words! The crew of the House were also taken aback, and turned their suspicious eyes to Fang Lang. But Fang Lang pulled out the pistol from his waist unhurriedly, pulled the bolt and loaded it, looked at the German soldiers behind Captain Hodge with a smile, and pulled the trigger directly. With the sound of "Boom!", everyone was taken aback. Obviously, they didn''t expect that the person in front of them would suddenly shoot and kill with a smile on their face. Not even a threat. All the German soldiers were in a commotion, but unfortunately they were all captives who had laid down their weapons. Under the threat of gunpoint from the surrounding Brazilian soldiers, they had to endure it. Facing the riot of the German soldiers in front of him, Fang Lang always had a smiling expression as if he was watching his children playing. When everyone was quiet, Fang Lang pointed to the German officer with the highest rank in the crowd and said: "So, now you are their new captain, congratulations!" Fang Lang''s words made the corners of the German officer''s eyes twitch, and his expression was very ugly. But Fang Lang continued to smile and said: "I said, what''s your name! You smile so ugly." The German officer cursed in his heart, which eye of yours saw me smile, and you smiled so ugly! Your whole family is smiling ugly. Regardless of the mouth or immediately replied: "Reporting sir, this is the first officer, Herb Huckle." Hearing the other party''s answer, Fang Lang smiled indifferently and said: "Then Mr. Huckle, what do you say!" Hacker hurriedly said: "Sir, I will follow General Doenitz''s order and surrender to you unconditionally." Fang Lang finally leaked a satisfied smile, but everyone looked at Fang Lang''s smile and no longer found it funny. Naturally, the crew of the House was included. In fact, the reason why Fang Lang behaved like this today was also intentional. He has always been gentle with his subordinates, and he has given everyone allowances to win over everyone. However, Fang Lang is actually very clear that foreigners are often fearful of power and not virtuous, and forget righteousness for profit. It''s no use making them thank you, they have to be afraid of you. Otherwise, sooner or later, when they feel that they have the opportunity to challenge you, they will throw you to the ground without hesitation, and eat you up. This is also the matter of Fang Lang passing Colonel Parisi, remembering that President Vargas gave up the foundation of a dictatorial ruler-control of the army because he believed in his own ruling power, which eventually led to the overthrow of the military coup. I remembered Mr. Maos education that political power can only emerge from the barrel of a gun. As a Chinese, if you want to gain a firm foothold in Brazil, or even develop steadily, the first thing you need to do is to have your own military power. What''s more, in Brazil, a military coup is like a common occurrence, and there was even a period of 21 years of military dictatorship in the later period. In such a country, Fang Lang did not dare to retire directly. Without the support of his own military background, Fang Lang was very worried whether his investment in Brazil would be directly embezzled. This is also the main reason why Fang Lang was willing to serve as the captain of the destroyer after chatting with Colonel Parisi. As long as you have the right, you can protect your property from being violated. And if you have money, you can gain more stable rights in the corrupt Brazilian army. Now my biggest shortcoming is that I have no one. Fang Lang has always believed in one sentence, that is, people who are not my race must have a different heart. Therefore, it is difficult for Fang Lang to really feel at ease with the locals. It''s not that Fang Lang will trust his fellow Chinese very much. However, at least they are both Chinese. After being immigrated by Fang Lang in the early stage, he will be the backer of all Chinese compatriots in Brazil. It is impossible for everyone not to stand with him. If some outstanding compatriots can grow up in the later stage, even if they don''t stand with him, as long as they don''t oppose him, he will support them without hesitation. Because, after all, we all have the same origin. In a foreign country, whether you want to or not, all foreigners will regard you as natural allies. Fang Lang glanced casually at the reactions of the crew of the House behind him. It seems that the effect of killing chickens and monkeys is very good. At least everyone''s faces began to show a little awe. It seems that in the future, we need to find opportunities to let them see a more ruthless side of themselves, so that they can love and be afraid of themselves. "Since this is the case, let''s start!" Actually, this kind of surrender ceremony is not very complicated, and it is not necessary to sign any agreement between the heads of government. So, the ceremony was quickly completed. After the agreement was completed, Fang Lang boarded the latest German submarine U2546 and visited for a while. Look here, touch there. It''s like a child getting a new toy. Although there are many differences between the mechanical equipment and the American equipment, and the German on the instrument is unknown to everyone. However, the working principles are basically the same. With the cooperation of the German prisoners, in addition to not being able to dive, de la Torre can fully master the normal sailing on the water. This is great news for Fang Lang. Regarding how to deal with this submarine, Fang Lang decided to report to the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. After all, he didn''t expect such an advanced U-boat at first. In this situation, he may not be able to keep it alone. It is good to eat it by yourself in silence, but when there are difficulties and troubles, of course you have to bring some tall people over to stand together. The big deal is to share some profit losses that you can bear! When Fang Lang contacted his immediate superior, Colonel Parisi, before he could report the good news, he let himself receive the good news first. (end of this chapter) Chapter 80: ambition Chapter 80 Ambition It turned out that the Allied Command informed the Brazilian Expeditionary Force of the excellent performance of the Brazilian destroyer Haus in **** and the excellent record of sinking four German submarines. The Brazilian Expeditionary Force Command is very excited, especially the Brazilian Navy, which has always lacked a sense of presence in the expeditionary force and is somewhat unknown, has achieved such an excellent record all at once. The high-ranking naval officials in Brazil were ecstatic and felt that their faces were bright. It can be said that from this moment on, the Brazilian Navy is no longer the original existing fleet. Now it has actually fought against the most powerful naval force in the world, and defeated the opponent with a record of 0:4. In particular, the Royal Navy of the British Empire specially sent a letter of thanks to the Brazilian Navy, thanking the Brazilian destroyer House for extending a helping hand to the Harry on the battlefield. This is the most powerful navy in the world, a letter of thanks to the unknown Brazilian Navy! How can we not make the officers and men of the Brazilian Navy laugh. Almost the entire Brazilian Navy reached an instant agreement to frame this letter of thanks and put it on display in the museum. The biggest contributor to this matter, Lieutenant Commander Fang Lang, the only naval sinking record in the entire Brazilian Navy, is to be the future star of the Brazilian Navy and focus on training. directly skipped the position of lieutenant colonel, which many people could not achieve in their lifetime, and became a powerful colonel of the Brazilian navy. There are even rumors that when Fang Lang returns to China, he will be personally received by the President of Brazil and awarded the country''s highest medal of honor. Fang Lang, who was a little dizzy from the good news of Colonel Parisi, finally straightened out his thoughts, and reflected the difficult situation he encountered to Colonel Parisi. Unexpectedly, Colonel Parisi told him with a wry smile that from now on his immediate superior was no longer Colonel Parisi. Instead, it was under the dual leadership of Rear Admiral Friedrich Crook, Chief of Staff of the Naval General Staff, and Rear Admiral Morais, Commander of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. Colonel Parisi will follow the first batch of returning expeditionary force soldiers to return home directly. The specific return time depends on the arrangement of the expeditionary force headquarters. Moreover, they may retire directly after returning to China and return to their hometown to provide for the elderly. As for Fang Lang''s concern about whether the submarine would be taken back by Britain and the United States, Parisi finally gave Fang Lang a personal suggestion, that is, not to return home with the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. Instead, they took the initiative to apply to the United States to lead their newly captured German submarines to help the United States continue to shine on the Pacific battlefield. The ownership of this submarine will be diluted. Moreover, Colonel Parisi also hinted to Fang Lang that this kind of voluntary help to the Americans could allow the Americans to support two new warships. The most important thing is that you can temporarily stay away from the upcoming political storm in Brazil. After all, according to what Colonel Parisi said, Fang Lang is no longer the original simple destroyer captain. Rather, the youngest colonel officer of the Brazilian Navy and even the world navy, and the most powerful naval fleet commander in Brazil. Such figures have begun to have a strong influence in the naval camp. Colonel Parisi directly suggested to Fang Lang not to choose sides easily, as long as he has a strong fleet in his hands and has the support of Americans behind him. This political storm will not have any impact on him, and may even give him a lot of help. Obviously, Colonel Parisi also thinks that he is a natural pro-American faction, and the current Brazilian army is generally pro-American. He is the only Brazilian officer who is known to have a clear relationship with the United States. This time, in the political storm caused by the pro-American military officers who have accepted the baptism of American freedom and democratic ideas, even if Fang Lang does nothing, he will automatically get a piece of cake. As for the size of the cake, it depends on Fang Lang himself thought out. Colonel Parisi''s personal suggestion moved Fang Lang''s heart. The reason for Fang Lang''s heartbeat had nothing to do with the political interests that Colonel Parisi said. Rather, if he really joins the Pacific battlefield, then he will have the opportunity to directly participate in the war against Japan. Even the US-led landing on Japan. This is riding a horse on Mount Fuji! The dream of all Chinese men! If you have the opportunity to realize it, how could you refuse it! Thinking of this, Fang Lang doesn''t care about this new submarine! My heart is completely occupied by the horse stepping on Mount Fuji. As for, the idea of ??not caring about the war but just making money was thrown out of the blue. After finishing the correspondence with Colonel Parisi, Fang Lang reported the news of the new submarine to Major General Friedrich Crook, Chief of Staff of the Navy General Staff, and Morai, Commander of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, in accordance with Colonel Parisi''s request. General Si. However, he received two different replies. General Morais suggested that Fang Lang should not affect his relationship with his allies because of a new submarine, and suggested that Fang Lang directly report the matter to the United States. Look at the United States What is the attitude. Rear Admiral Crook of the Navy said that he must hold the warship in his hands, and he asked Fang Lang to send the submarine back to Brazil. According to that meaning, the Ministry of the Navy will directly receive it. How could Fang Lang transport this new destroyer directly back to Brazil and hand it over to the Brazilian Navy! Isn''t the navy taking all the benefits, and he should take the blame? Don''t even think about it. So, Fang Lang directly followed General Morais''s order, first contacted Brigadier General Jackson, and explained to him how he got the new submarine. Ask Brigadier General Jackson''s opinion on this submarine, and Brigadier General Jackson said that he personally has no opinion on his ownership, but he is very pleased that Fang Lang can inform him of this matter. And suggested that Fang Lang ask Lieutenant General Chambers for his opinion. Fang Lang has nothing to do with this. It would be great if he could get the support of a Lieutenant General of the Ming Army. "General Chambers, I am Fang Lang, Captain of the Brazilian Navy House, and I would like to ask for your opinion on something." "Oh! Fang, I heard about your performance in the Atlantic Ocean. It was quite amazing! What do you want to ask for my opinion! Please be straightforward." General Chambers'' tone was quite relaxed. He was obviously very satisfied with Fang Lang''s performance, and he could be regarded as a discerning eye. "General, thank you for your compliment!" Fang Lang will not be modest at this time and say things like praise, after all, foreigners don''t like modesty. Immediately after Fang Lang rescued himself from the Harry. In order to express his gratitude, the Harry invited Fang Lang to join the surrendered German Navy submarine force. As a result, he captured a new German submarine. I want to ask the U.S. Navy for its opinion on this new submarine, whether I can incorporate this submarine into the battle order of the Brazilian Navy. After being silent for a while, Lieutenant General Chambers smiled and said: "Fang, you didn''t simply rescue the Harry, did you?" Fang Lang didn''t know how to answer Lieutenant General Chambers'' words, but Lieutenant General Chambers continued without waiting for Fang Lang''s answer: "Don''t worry, we have also seized the new submarine you mentioned. Since it was given to you by the British, then you can accept it with peace of mind! As for whether to be included in the Brazilian Navy''s battle order, what do you think about it yourself!" Unexpectedly, the new submarine that is extremely precious in the eyes of myself and the Brazilian Navy is insignificant in the eyes of the Americans. In fact, this is no wonder. The United States has its own complete equipment system. It is impossible for this submarine to directly join the battle sequence of the U.S. Navy just because it is advanced. As a capitalist country, if the U.S. military puts the captured submarines into active service, wouldnt the U.S. arms companies lose an order for a submarine? This is absolutely not allowed. Hearing that General Chambers did not directly agree to incorporate the submarine into the Brazilian Navy''s battle order, but asked Fang Lang''s own thoughts, Fang Lang''s heart moved: "The Brazilian Navy Department hopes to ship it directly back to Brazil and arrange for personnel to take it over, but I personally still hope to be able to include this submarine under my command." Lieutenant General Chambers laughed and said: "You guys want to build your own naval fleet! Just relying on your destroyer and submarine is not a complete naval fleet!" Fang Lang heard what Chambers said, and he hit the snake with the stick and said: "My own two ships are definitely not suitable for building my own squadron. Isn''t this supported by General Chambers!" General Chambers was obviously amused by Fang Lang''s words. "What good thing do you think, boy! The Germans have surrendered, do you think the US government will agree to equip you with new warships?" (end of this chapter) Chapter 81: Backfired Chapter 81 Backfired "The Germans surrendered, aren''t there still Japanese?" Fang Lang''s words stunned Lieutenant General Chambers, obviously he didn''t expect Fang Lang to even think of intervening in the Pacific battlefield. "As far as I know, your President Vargas is not willing to let your Brazil get involved in the Pacific battlefield. There is simply no way to realize your idea." Brazils current president, Vargas, is a typical pragmatist. If it werent for the German submarine attacking Brazilian merchant ships, it would not be so easy for Brazil to join the Allied Forces, let alone allow Brazil to participate in the Pacific battlefield. In fact, after the end of the European War, the Brazilian Expeditionary Force was ordered to be stationed in Italy as the occupying forces of Piacenza and Alexandria. However, the Brazilian Expeditionary Force only stayed in Italy until early July and then evacuated back home in batches. It can also be seen from this that Brazil is not a warlike country. Because of this, Brazil did not benefit much after World War II. In history, apart from bringing back the army equipment of the four divisions, there was not much gain. Even because of domestic political turmoil, he didn''t get much actual benefits after the war. However, Fang Lang didn''t want to give up these benefits directly. He still counted on his status as an occupying army after the war to get promoted and make a fortune! If the Americans can help him build a modern naval fleet, Fang Lang will basically achieve his goal. "Your Excellency, as long as there are enough interests, even if Mr. President opposes it, there will be many people who will support it!" Chambers has many people who support what Fang Lang said, but he really doesn''t quite understand it, so he said with a little doubt: "What do you mean?" Having a modern naval fleet is of course in the best interest of the Brazilian Ministry of the Navy, so Fang Lang directly expressed his thoughts. "If participating in the Pacific War allows the Brazilian Navy to have a powerful naval fleet, I think the Brazilian Navy will definitely fully support joining the Pacific Battlefield." Unfortunately, Lieutenant General Chambers obviously has his own considerations, or the U.S. government actually does not want an overly powerful modern fleet to appear in Latin America, which is not in the interests of the United States. "The current situation in the Pacific battlefield is very clear, and there is no need to add an additional naval force. Therefore, your proposal is a bit out of date." Fang Lang did not take into account the United States'' positioning and guiding ideology for Latin America at this time. I still want to try harder. "The fighting power of the Japanese is very tenacious, isn''t it! If, once the Japanese landing war starts, then there must be a heavy price to pay. At this time, every force will not be superfluous." It''s a pity that since Lieutenant General Chambers has his own ideas and ideas about the development of Latin America in his heart, he will definitely not be easily persuaded by Fang Lang. "What you said is very reasonable, but now that the European war is over, we have freed up a lot of manpower. And, I am the commander of the Fourth Fleet. Unable to participate in the decision-making of the Pacific Theater, I will pass on your wishes to General MacArthur in the Pacific Theater. As for whether I will transfer your troops to the Pacific Theater, I am not sure. " Listening to Lieutenant General Chambers'' evasive words, Fang Lang knew that he had no way to continue to open a breakthrough from here, so he could only end the call angrily. The call with Lieutenant General Chambers made Fang Lang a little bit shocked, and the fighting passion he had just ignited was poured into his heart by a pot of cold water. At first, I didnt understand why Lieutenant General Chambers would reject an allied armys willingness to apply to help the United States fight the war. He thought Chambers already knew about the **** prepared by the United States. However, I remembered that I changed my attitude only after I proposed to let Brazil have a strong naval fleet, and I slowly began to think about it. It seems that I have entered a misunderstanding, how can I rely on others to be strong? What about alms! It seems that if I want to build a powerful naval fleet in Brazil, I have to do it myself, and my economic development ideas have to change to a certain extent. It turns out that Fang Lang has been considering the political turmoil in Brazil, and it is not suitable for large-scale investment in the country now, but now his identity has a certain ability to protect himself. I believe that no one dares to pull their teeth out of their own tiger''s mouth. As long as they have a piece of their own territory, I don''t believe that anyone dares to show their teeth to themselves, and coups must go around themselves. Fang Lang, who had made a decision in his heart, directly expressed his gratitude to Reinhardt, and said that he had received an order from the Expeditionary Force Command to rush to the port of Genoa in Italy to stand by. Reinhardt was obviously curious about what happened on the House, but he only reminded Fang Lang to observe the Geneva Conventions, so he stopped talking. Fang Lang smiled and said goodbye to Reinhardt without explaining too much, and led the fleet to Genoa Port. Actually, the expeditionary force headquarters did not order Fang Lang to go to Genoa port, but Fang Lang knew that Piacenza, one of the expeditionary force''s stations, was not far from Genoa. I originally ordered my father-in-law, Mr. Coburn, to purchase Genoa''s steel and shipbuilding industries when the Allied forces had just occupied Genoa. Now that I want to change my mind. Then take advantage of Genoa''s advantages as Italy''s steel and shipbuilding center, and purchase related equipment to prepare for the construction of steel plants and shipyards in Brazil. After a week of voyage, Fang Lang led the captured German submarine to the port of Genoa, Italy. The reason why it took so long is that everyone is not proficient in the operation of the new submarine, and they have been getting familiar with it all the time. During the journey to Genoa, Fang Lang had already reported to the expeditionary force headquarters. In fact, most of the current expeditionary force navy is stationed in Genoa port. Because this is the closest port to Piacenza, one of the bases of the expeditionary force, and the port where the expeditionary force withdrew from Italy, Fang Lang''s direct trip to Genoa can be regarded as a prophet. It was Colonel Parisi, the current naval commander of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, who received Fang Lang at the port. "Fang, you are finally back. Get in the car, we said as we walked, General Morais is still waiting for you at the headquarters!" As soon as he saw Fang Lang, Colonel Parisi stepped forward and gave him a big hug. Before Fang Lang could say more, he dragged Fang Lang into a Willis jeep parked by the port. Hearing that Colonel Parisi wanted to take him directly to the expeditionary force headquarters, Fang Lang was taken aback: "Is the headquarters in Genoa?" Colonel Parisi pushed Fang Lang into the jeep and said: "Of course not! The headquarters is in Piacenza, and we are now the occupying force of Piacenza, more than 150 kilometers away from Genoa! We need to hurry up, or we won''t be able to make it to dinner." After listening to what Colonel Parisi said, Fang Lang laughed and said: "Isn''t dinner simple? Let''s find a good restaurant in Genoa and have a good meal before we go!" As a result, Parisi rolled his eyes and said: "Fang, do you think that the food in Italy will be abundant now? The war has just ended and the order has not been restored. Now Italians can''t even buy food. Where can there be a restaurant to give you a good meal?" Fang Lang was taken aback for a moment, didn''t his father-in-law bring the business here! With the current development speed of global trade in Italy, it should be able to occupy the Italian market soon! But I dont have time to pay attention to these things yet, so lets finish returning the army first, and then consider business matters! In this era, Italy has just experienced war and the traffic situation is very bad. At the current speed, it would be more than an hour to drive a distance of 150 kilometers. However, it took nearly six hours for Fang Lang to arrive at the headquarters of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force in Piacenza. Fang Lang was very moved that Colonel Parisi was able to drive so far to meet him in Genoa. "Colonel Parisi, I didn''t expect you to go to Genoa to meet me in person. Such a long distance is really too hard. Have you been so idle in the expeditionary force now?" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Colonel Parisi, who was rejoicing that he was not killed, almost died of anger, and gave Fang Lang a supercilious look: "What are you thinking! I am the commander of the expeditionary navy, and my station is of course by the sea! The order this time is for me to pick you up and report to the headquarters together." Unexpectedly, there was such an oolong, and Fang Lang''s face was moved and turned into embarrassment. (end of this chapter) Chapter 82: Reality Chapter 82 Reality Actually, on Fang Lang''s way to Italy, the Brazilian Navy Ministry had communicated repeatedly with the Expeditionary Force Command because of Fang Lang''s problem, because both parties have a common goal, which is to enhance the strength of the Brazilian Navy. However, there were serious differences in dealing with the new submarine seized by Fang Lang and Fang Lang''s future work arrangements. The Ministry of the Navy hoped to assign the submarine directly to the Brazilian Navy and establish a formal submarine force. And Morais was worried that if the Brazilian Navy directly took the submarine away, it would cause dissatisfaction with the U.S. government. He even considered exchanging the new submarine in his hands for other ships from the U.S. to build a complete modern naval fleet. General Morais obviously seriously overestimated the importance of this submarine to the United States. Therefore, after learning that Fang Lang had driven the submarine to Genoa, he directly ordered Parisi to bring Fang Lang to the commander of the expeditionary force. department discussion. Because Fang Lang''s military rank has risen now, although his position has not yet been clarified. According to the results of the communication between Morais and the Ministry of the Navy, Fang Lang will serve as the commander-in-chief of the Brazilian Navy''s First Fleet. Of course, this First Fleet is just a name. After all, apart from a few old-fashioned warships from the First World War as the patrol fleets in various theaters, the current Brazilian Navy has no fleet organization capable of going to deep seas for combat. This is equivalent to having only local armed police and no field troops. Now it is hard to get Brazil to produce a real combat experience, and has the latest destroyer of the US military and the latest submarine of Germany. If you dont take the opportunity to participate in such a big war, how can there be such a good opportunity after upgrading your naval strength! Actually, when we talk about this, we have to talk about the Brazilian government in this period, which was actually established by the liberal President Vargas with the support of the "Lieutenant faction". However, he did not overthrow the dominant position of monopoly large business owners and large estate owners. Instead, he let the Brazilian government lead monopoly large business owners and large estate owners to rule the country in a subordinate relationship. The actual nature is that it is a country that is somewhat biased towards dictatorship. However, as Brazil joined the Allied Powers and the cooperation with the United States continued to deepen, the ideas of freedom and democracy began to appear in society. Even President Vargas was influenced by President Roosevelt''s re-election and death in office. Start to learn from the United States, let go of the military that supported your own rights, and start to learn from the practice of democratically elected governments to form your own political party. From a dictator to a civilian politician, in the process of such a transformation, the country''s investment in the military will begin to decrease. And the Brazilian Expeditionary Force of this period came into contact with the colorful world outside through the World War. This is the case with a rural landlord who has several long-term workers who have been working for him and have never seen the world. However, one day he asked his long-term laborer, who had never seen the world, to help a neighbor''s farmer. The long-term worker went to the farmer''s house and saw that the guy had good food, new clothes, and the work was done automatically by tractors, which made it very easy. This is completely different from working with old oxen and hoes at the landlord''s house in the countryside. Who can bear it? It happened that the workers at the bottom, the peasants, also began to wake up under the influence of the Soviet Workers and Peasants Party. If Vargas really wants to be elected president through popular elections, of course he needs the votes of the majority of workers and farmers. In order to get the votes in the hands of the people at the bottom, Vargas had to improve the treatment of workers and farmers. Then, the big entrepreneurs and big manor owners who have been supporting you are equivalent to the wives who manage the money at home, won''t their interests be damaged? In this case, the long-term worker who has seen the world and the wife who manages the money at home will inevitably get together. Then it''s not as simple as just giving a hat, it will directly kill you for money! Of course, this is a long way off topic. Think about the Brazilian army who had seen the world outside during this period, how could they accept the old farm tools at home! It must be to buy some new mechanized equipment outside! However, the Brazilian government is not strong enough to participate in the war too late, and its contribution to the war is also very limited. At the national level, it is foolish to want Europe and the United States to support Brazil''s military construction. As a result, one of the long-term workers gave birth to a son, but he did not know where to get through the relationship with the farmer. Unexpectedly, he took back two pieces of new mechanized equipment, which really made all the long-term workers happy! The status of a child in the family is directly rising, and he becomes a small steward. This is Fang Lang''s current situation in the Brazilian army. As the leader of the long-term workers who led everyone out to work, General Morais was somewhat concerned about gains and losses, but in order to work easily in the future, he had to take this family son seriously. So, when Fang Lang came to the expeditionary force headquarters accompanied by Colonel Parisi, General Morais seemed to be a different person. He no longer issued orders directly, but began to ask Fang Lang for his opinion. "Fang, I wonder if you have found out what the Americans plan to do with this submarine?" Regarding this latest German submarine, General Morais is still in a rather uneasy mood. He wants to own him but is afraid of causing dissatisfaction among the Americans. Fang Lang looked at the nervous General Morais in front of him and said: "General, according to your instructions, I inquired with the U.S. Navy. They mean that they will not interfere with this submarine." This result made General Morais heave a sigh of relief, and he couldn''t help but feel happy. After all, Brazil has its first submarine in this way. As a general, it is impossible for his subordinates to see his guilty conscience, so he pretended to be calm and said: "Well! I understand. As the person who captured him, have you ever thought about how to deal with this trophy!" Fang Lang knows what the Brazilian Navy thinks about this submarine. Now General Morais is asking him for his opinion, maybe it is for the Navy. So, Fang Lang will definitely not let him say the words assigned to the Brazilian Navy. He said directly: "My own spoils, of course I hope to be used by me. Moreover, I have asked my deputy captain to learn to use this submarine under the guidance of German prisoners." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, General Morais did not show any surprises, obviously Fang Lang''s thoughts had been expected. Glancing at Colonel Parisi who was sitting on the side, he said: "For your outstanding performance in the war, the Expeditionary Force Command and the Navy Department have jointly requested credit for you. I think you already know the good news, right?" Fang Lang heard General Morais''s words with sincere eyes, and said to General Morais with gratitude on his face: "I am very grateful to General Morais for your trust and help to me. Colonel Parisi has already told me that it is because of your strong recommendation that I am where I am today." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Morais couldn''t help but glance at Colonel Parisi more. Colonel Parisi, on the other hand, was expressionless, as if Fang Lang was talking about another person. But I couldn''t help but sigh in my heart, Fang Lang really knows how to be a man, thinking that he is a person who is about to leave, Fang Lang is still saying good things for himself. "My idea is to set up a new fleet alone and give it to you to command. However, the two warships in your hand are definitely not enough now. I don''t know what you think about it!" Of course Fang Lang understood what General Morais said, and of course he wanted to be able to reach out to the Americans again. Originally, I wanted to pretend to be confused, but thinking about it, pretending to be confused would not solve the problem. Wait a moment and directly order yourself to talk to the Americans! Then it''s not embarrassing, it''s better to be more straightforward and say directly: "General, I have already talked to Vice Admiral Chambers of the US Navy! The result is not ideal." Both General Morais and Colonel Parisi set their sights on Fang Lang. Obviously, they did not expect that he had already penetrated the bottom of the Americans first. And, he said it very frankly. "Oh! What does it mean that it is not ideal! Tell me!" "Combining Lieutenant General Chambers'' words and my own understanding, an overly powerful Brazilian navy is not in the interests of the United States." Fang Lang''s words stunned both of them. Colonel Parisi obviously didn''t understand what it meant to be inconsistent with the interests of the United States. But General Morais''s face already understood Fang Lang''s meaning. Looking at the young man in front of him, he couldn''t expect him to say such a thing. Can''t help but start to look at Fang Lang seriously. Originally thought that Fang Lang was just a young man with a bit of American background, and he could use his relationship to seek more benefits for Brazil. As a result, a naval battle made him famous in the Brazilian Navy, becoming the only naval captain of the Brazilian Navy with a record of actual combat kills in the European War. Judging from the current sentence, Fang Lang actually possesses considerable political wisdom. This is really a big surprise. I just don''t know if he considers the issue from Brazil''s standpoint. Perhaps, just take this opportunity to test his position. He also said: "Oh! So do you think we should give up?" "We definitely can''t just give up! We can''t beg for strength! This time I understand that it is impossible to count on the Americans. We can only rely on ourselves." (end of this chapter) Chapter 83: Rehash Chapter 83 Revisited Fang Lang expressed his thoughts without hesitation. After all, he is not a real pro-American faction, and he just wants to take advantage of Americans. General Morais was very satisfied with Fang Lang''s answer, explaining that Fang Lang is a Brazilian citizen who truly has Brazilian nationalist feelings. This is very important. "Tell me, how are you going to rely on yourself!" Break the casserole and ask the end, isn''t it good! As a general, is it appropriate for you to ask the bottom line like this? Even though he thought so in his heart, Fang Lang certainly couldn''t say that. After all, this person is now his immediate superior. Can only answer: "I am going to ask my family to invest in the construction of a steel factory and a shipyard. Sooner or later, we will build a powerful navy ourselves!" General Morais'' eyes almost fell out of Fang Lang''s words. In 1940, Brazil danced back and forth between Germany and the United States for a steel plant. In the end, the United States loaned 10 million US dollars to the Volta Ranch in Brazil. Construction of Brazil''s first steel plant. also officially represented Brazil''s abandonment of Germany and joining the US camp. Later, there was an incident of German submarines attacking Brazilian merchant ships. How long has it passed? Your family has the ability to build a steel factory and a shipyard. Why didnt you do it earlier? "Are you serious? Your family has such great strength!" Of course Fang Lang understands the reason why money is not revealed. It is impossible for him to let Morais know that he has such financial strength. "Of course my family does not have such strength. However, our family has the ability to raise these funds. Of course, this requires the support of the government." Such a large investment cannot land in Brazil for no reason. The Brazilian government must come forward and pay some benefits. Otherwise, I would just foolishly build a steel factory and a shipyard in Brazil, not to mention whether the local government or local tyrants would lie on my body to **** blood and become a victim. Just by solving local employment, you can enjoy a series of benefits such as land fee concessions, tax reductions and exemptions from the landing government. Morais never thought that there would be such a harvest today. He looked at Fang Lang seriously and said: "Fang, I will personally report this matter to Mr. President. I understand your thoughts! Don''t worry, if you can really make this project land in Brazil. Then, I assure you, I will fully support it on behalf of the military you!" Regarding General Morais''s statement, Fang Lang understood very well that this represented the military''s full support for him, and it certainly did not only refer to supporting his own factory construction, but also his position in the army. This statement is really important to Fang Lang. Because General Morais'' status in the Brazilian military is very special. Although he is only a major general, he is also a Brazilian field marshal. According to the Chinese, it is the old disciples who spread all over the government and the public. With his support, at least in the next few coups in Brazil, Fang Lang no longer needs to worry about the safety of his family and the factory. "Thank you for your support, Your Excellency General. If you agree, I will explain my thoughts to my family tomorrow. I believe I will get a clear answer soon!" General Morais was very satisfied with Fang Lang''s statement, and couldn''t help but slapped his thigh and said: "Good! Good! Good! If this thing is done, then I believe that no one will dare to express any objection to you for taking such an important position at such a young age!" Fang Lang was taken aback by General Morais'' words, but it''s normal to think about it, in a dictatorial country like Brazil, a society with a slightly feudal hierarchy. Fang Lang, a young minority with no family background, can quickly rise to today''s status, how could there be no opponents! No wonder Colonel Parisi said that he will obtain the rank of colonel. But when I arrived at the headquarters today, I didn''t receive a promotion order. It turned out that there was still resistance! In this way, building steel plants and shipyards in Brazil is no longer a purely economic issue! It must be raised to a political issue. Fang Lang, who already had a calculation in his heart, remained calm and did not respond to General Morais'' words. General Morais, who had finished feeling, spoke again: "Hey! If this is the case, our plan to build a powerful navy will be postponed!" Looking at the slumped General Morais, Fang Lang could only sigh. After all, his grand wish of stepping on Mount Fuji with horses failed to come true! Colonel Parisi, who had been standing beside him like a transparent person, suddenly said: "Fang, is the plan to participate in the Pacific battlefield also unworkable?" General Morais was taken aback by Colonel Parisi''s words, and while he was still thinking about what the plan was, Fang Lang had already spoken. "I proposed this idea to General Chambers. However, it was rejected! After all, the US military has now gained an absolute advantage in the Pacific battlefield. Moreover, the fleet in the Atlantic Ocean is also sufficient to support the Pacific battlefield." "Wait, what is this Pacific battlefield plan you two are talking about? Why don''t I know." General Morais was obviously taken aback by what the two said, and was also aroused by his curiosity. Fang Lang and Colonel Parisi exchanged glances, and Fang Lang motioned to Colonel Parisi, after all, this was his idea. However, Colonel Parisi obviously didn''t want to show off the limelight. After all, he was the one who had already decided to leave. It''s better to let Fang Lang increase some political capital. So, after shaking his head, Fang Lang signaled. Seeing the two people pushing back and forth, General Morais became impatient, and said to Fang Lang: "Fang, tell me, what is the plan!" Since Colonel Parisi was unwilling to say, and General Morais ordered his general again, Fang Lang could only say: "This is Colonel Parisi''s idea. He hopes to obtain the support of the US Navy for our naval fleet construction by actively applying to join the Pacific battlefield. However, Lieutenant General Chambers rejected it on the grounds that the Pacific Theater is not under his management." Fang Lang''s words made General Morais fall into silence, and he said after a while: "As far as I know, the British Navy established the Pacific Fleet in November last year. It wanted to participate in the Pacific War, but was rejected by the US Navy. But now the British Pacific Fleet is also active in the Pacific battlefield! Why can''t we join?" Fang Lang and Colonel Parisi stared blankly at Lieutenant General Morais, thinking: The British and the Americans are brothers, and the British Pacific Fleet has the support of many British Dominions. Although it is not as powerful as the US Pacific Fleet, it is not as powerful as our two broken ships in Brazil! There is no need for Fang Lang and the two to speak their minds, General Morais has already asked himself and answered: "The Pacific Fleet of the British is strong enough. Alas! In the final analysis, our Brazil is not strong enough, and no one wants to take the initiative to help others." No one dares to answer such words! The two could only look at General Morais with a little embarrassment. "Fang, why do you think the British must join the Pacific battlefield?" Fang Lang was a little caught off guard by General Morais'' sudden mention, but he was still a college student anyway, and the analysis of this simple problem was not yet pediatrics. After thinking about it for a while, Fang Lang said: "I think there should be at least two reasons: one is to restore the dominance of the Southeast Asian colonies occupied by the Japanese; the other is to hope to gain more voice in post-war Asian issues." Fang Lang''s answer made General Morais'' eyes shine. He didn''t expect Fang Lang to be able to see it so thoroughly, and Fang Lang couldn''t help but appreciate it even more. Colonel Parisi on the side was a little stunned. Isn''t this knowledge that diplomats should master! Why you all know, just me being a fool. Brazilian schools dont teach politics, let alone a 5,000-year-old civilization like China. Although, it is painful to learn. However, knowledge is so fragrant! General Morais didn''t know if he was really inspired by Fang Lang''s words, so he started to say: "The right to speak, the right to speak, this word is used well." Then he stood up directly and started walking back and forth in the office. After a while, he said: "Fang, you said that Brazil participated in the World War. As a victorious country, do we also have some right to speak!" Is not this nonsensical! If there is no benefit, will President Vargas choose to join the Allies and send troops to the European battlefield? Could it be that it was really just for a few sunk merchant ships, don''t be stupid. Fang Lang had to answer General Morais'' question: "General Yes, we are also a member of the Confederate States. Of course we have the right to speak." Hearing Fang Lang''s affirmative answer, General Morais said leisurely: "Then can''t we ask to provide us with a powerful naval fleet?" This is not easy to answer, this is not something that the army can decide on its own! Usually, this kind of thing is discussed by the head of government and the diplomatic department, and the army will make the decision in that round. Moreover, the powerful navy obtained in this way cannot be regarded as truly powerful. It must have continuous production capacity to be considered strong. "Maybe, we should ask the government to come forward and talk to the Americans. Although the contribution of our navy in the European war is only your four sinking records, the contribution of our army and air force is not small. It is not too much to ask for an aircraft carrier fleet. !" (end of this chapter) Chapter 84: state relations Chapter 84 State Relations Fang Lang didn''t expect General Morais'' appetite to be so big, so he couldn''t help but click his tongue secretly. But I can''t help but yearn in my heart. If there is really an aircraft carrier fleet, I don''t know if I have a chance. Soon, Fang Lang threw this unrealistic fantasy out of his head. He has no experience in the Air Force, so he probably won''t be able to play with the aircraft carrier fleet, so he should not be so ambitious. What''s more, as the head of the government, he must not only consider the military aspect of this kind of matter, but also consider the political and economic aspects! Therefore, this idea of ??General Morais is destined to be impossible to realize. As a subordinate, Fang Lang can''t refute his superior''s words! Therefore, Fang Lang could only remain silent and recite the invisibility spell silently in his heart, just like hoping that the teacher at the school would not point to himself when asking questions. It''s a pity that this kind of spell is often not very effective. General Morais named Fang Lang again and said: "Fang Lang, what do you think?" This made Fang Lang''s scalp tingle, shouldn''t you discuss this kind of matter with the senior officials of the Ministry of the Navy? Why do you keep asking for my opinion. Then I thought about it, no! I will be the captain of the navy soon, so I am not the top of the navy! It seems that there is nothing wrong with asking your own opinion! After thinking about it, Fang Lang replied directly: "If we can have an aircraft carrier fleet, then we will become the country with the strongest military strength in South America. This is of course a good thing. However, if we want to maintain an aircraft carrier fleet, we may not It will be more difficult!" This question was obviously ignored by General Morais. After being raised by Fang Lang, it really made him have to give up his thoughts. He couldn''t return to a fleet and then go back and stop at the port to rust! "Uh! You are right, what kind of fleet do you think we should have? Or what kind of fleet do you want to have!" It seems that General Morais has not given up on the idea of ??taking over a fleet from the US military, but Fang Lang knows in his heart that as missiles become more and more advanced, all current warships will soon be eliminated. However, naval officers and soldiers need a warship for training. It is best to form an aircraft carrier **** fleet without an aircraft carrier, so that as long as they have an aircraft carrier, they can directly become an aircraft carrier fleet. "If it were me, I would want to form a fleet with one to two cruisers, four to six destroyers and two to three submarines, plus one to two supply ships." Fang Lang''s words made General Morais and Colonel Parisi instantly understand what it meant. Isn''t this the **** formation of an aircraft carrier battle group! It seems that the long-term goals are unified by everyone! This is considered to have a common ambition! Hello comrades! General Morais nodded in satisfaction, and then changed the subject: "If the United States is unwilling to support us to participate in the Pacific battlefield, do you still want to participate?" Does this still need to be asked! Of course I want to participate! This is a horse stepping on Mount Fuji! Landing in Japan as an occupying army, I want to go with my own money! But this must not be said to General Morais, but Fang Lang can also taste some flavor from Morais'' words. Obviously General Morais also wants to organize an army to participate! This can''t help but make Fang Lang puzzled. Fang Lang knows that the Brazilian Expeditionary Force was established by General Morais, and now he still wants to participate in the Pacific War. What does this mean? Is Morais really a war madman? Like to fight? It''s better not to express your opinion in a hurry, maybe you don''t have to take the initiative to say that you want to participate in General Morais, you will arrange yourself to participate! Thinking of this, Fang Lang pretended to be embarrassed: "If there is no benefit, we don''t seem to need to post it!" Hearing Fang Lang''s answer, General Morais'' eyes twitched, young man! You are still too young, you have to practice again! "What benefits do you want?" "Of course, add a few more warships to us! Otherwise, just relying on a destroyer and a submarine in my hand will be useless in the Pacific battlefield!" "You don''t think you will be able to play a big role when you reach the Pacific battlefield!" "Since this is the case, the Americans don''t welcome us, so there is no benefit, and there is no need for us to join in the fun!" "Didn''t you just analyze why the Americans don''t want the United Kingdom to participate in the Pacific battlefield, and the British insist on participating? How come you don''t understand it!" "Oh! I understand, you have the right to speak. However, even if we participate in the Pacific battlefield, we will not get much right to speak!" General Morais shook his head, obviously denying Fang Lang''s answer. However, he admired Fang Lang very much, so he continued to guide: "Didn''t you say that we have a strong naval power, which is not in the interests of the United States? Do you think it is in the interests of the United Kingdom?" Fang Lang thought for a while and finally understood what General Morais meant, and couldn''t help but look at him in shock, a little dumbfounded. It seems that I really underestimated the heroes of the world! Even Brazil, a country with a generally low level of education, can have such strategic thinking, Fang Lang can''t help but admire it. It seems that General Morais is really not a simple soldier! Looking at Fang Lang''s expression, General Morais smiled gratifiedly. Today''s harvest is really great! Unexpectedly, there would be such an outstanding young man in the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. Now the relationship between the United States and the United Kingdom must first be an alliance, which is beyond doubt. However, at the same time, the two countries have their own interests. In terms of international status, Britain, as a veteran world power, has always been in a leading position. However, after two world wars weakened, the leadership of the world has clearly begun to shift to the United States. Can Britain let it go easily at this time? Certainly not. Therefore, at this time, differences began to appear between the two countries. However, as the United States is Britain''s creditor, it is impossible for Britain to directly resist. Surely, when I dragged my feet secretly. General Morais obviously took a fancy to this. It can be said that the current Brazil is completely a chariot pulled by the Americans, and everything must be listened to by the Americans. However, Americans must use him and guard against their Brazilian brother. General Morais obviously hopes to use the British to participate in the Pacific battlefield, even if he doesn''t want anything, as long as he can get on line with the British. Brazil can seek some of Brazil''s own interests in the competition between the United Kingdom and the United States. This is why General Morais asked whether it was in the interest of Britain to have a strong navy in Brazil. There is definitely no benefit on the bright side. After all, everyone is in the Atlantic Ocean, and they may become competitors. However, the United States has always regarded Latin America as its own back garden. Is the United Kingdom really willing to make South America the back garden of the United States? So, it must be in the interests of the United Kingdom that Brazil can jump out at this time. With the British shit-stirring character, he will definitely extend a hand of friendship to Brazil. And Brazil can also take the opportunity to get rid of being a puppet of the United States. This is everyone''s happiness! Although Fang Lang didn''t answer General Morais''s question, General Morais understood everything from Fang Lang''s expression. Without Fang Lang speaking, General Morais spoke again: "This time you also have your own contacts in the UK, right?" Regarding General Morais''s question, Fang Lang didn''t hide anything, and said directly: "Yes, during this escort, the captain of the HMS Harry rescued by me is the son of British Navy Deputy Chief of Staff Fit Henderson." Hearing Fang Lang''s answer, General Morais couldn''t help but sigh, the young man in front of him is really a lucky star, which makes people envious! "Since this is the case, you young people can communicate more! I will let the government come forward to communicate and coordinate. You go back and prepare. No matter whether it succeeds or not, we will always try." Originally, Fang Lang had given up his grand goal of stepping on Mount Fuji with his horse, but he was unexpectedly taken out by General Morais now, and rose to a higher political level. The main goal of this meeting, the issue of the ownership of Germany''s new submarines, has been ignored. Actually, it''s not nothing. Fang Lang has already expressed his position to General Morais, and General Morais has no objection. Sometimes it is an attitude not to object to something. Even sometimes non-opposition is support.

Thank you everyone. (end of this chapter) Chapter 85: goodbye father in law Chapter 85 Goodbye Father-in-law Both parties were very satisfied with the discussion that took place over six hours. And both sides have gained extra gains. Due to the late time, Fang Lang and the two did not rush back to Genoa overnight, but spent the night in Piacenza. Early the next morning, I drove all the way back to Genoa. There was nothing to say all the way, and after Fang Lang returned to Genoa to arrange the work of the army, he went directly to the office of Global Trade in Genoa. Although work has always been communicated by telegram, Fang Lang now wants the steel plant and shipyard in Genoa to support the new steel plant and shipyard in Brazil. So, Fang Lang must personally understand his steel plant and shipyard in Genoa. It so happened that his father-in-law was also in Genoa, so it was inappropriate for Fang Lang not to meet his father-in-law. The two greeted a little, and after Coburn personally poured Fang Lang a cup of coffee, he couldn''t wait to speak; "Boss, you are finally back. If you don''t come back, I will go find you." Fang Lang was taken aback for a moment, what happened to Lilith? its not right! I haven''t hit a home run yet! "What''s wrong?" "According to your instructions, the company has been purchasing transport ships from the U.S. military. However, now that the war is over and the shipping lanes are safe, everyone is rushing to buy transport ships, causing the price of transport ships to skyrocket. The ship purchase plan you set for us was not completed on time. I am really sorry. I dont know if we will increase the purchase price. " Coburn said carefully with a little apology. Fang Lang couldn''t help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard that the plan hadn''t been completed, and was afraid of blaming himself. What a big deal, if you cant buy it, rent it! Anyway, these ships haven''t been brilliant for a few years, so it''s convenient to buy less and sell them. smiled indifferently and said: "I thought something happened to Lilith! What does this little matter matter, how many ships do we have now!" Fang Lang''s words made Mr. Coburn directly embarrassed, obviously he was a little embarrassed to discuss his daughter and him with his boss. Can only say with a weird expression: "Lilith and Vivian are fine, but they miss you a little. If you don''t have time to go to Naples, I can call them over." I didn''t expect Mr. Coburn to answer like this. Isn''t it clear that he has no objection to directly taking down the sisters? This is so happy! My father-in-law doesn''t object, so there''s nothing else to say. Fang Lang''s expression began to uncontrollably want to laugh, accept it, accept it, then accept it. "Is it really possible? That''s great, I miss them too, but I really don''t have time to go to Naples now." For Fang Lang''s answer, Mr. Coburn really hated his teeth, wishing he could pour the coffee in front of him directly over Fang Lang''s head. Can you be more shameless! This can''t be called a scumbag anymore! It''s like a beast, but I can''t change it, who knows that the three women in the family have already reached an agreement! You can only change the topic directly: "Now we have a total of fifty-six freighters, all of which are already heading to the United States and Brazil. However, the war has just ended. Therefore, the supplies have not arrived so quickly, and the earliest supplies are expected to arrive in Hong Kong in four days." Seeing that his father-in-law''s face was a little dark, Fang Lang resolutely sorted out his mood, and started working seriously, otherwise he couldn''t help but want to beat himself up. "Since everyone is scrambling for freighters, let''s stop participating. The air route has been restored to safety, so we will directly outsource our transportation tasks to the transportation company. Global Trading Co., Ltd. is a trading company. We have to operate separately from Global Shipping and conduct independent accounting. Didn''t the United States arrange for someone to come over and take over the transportation company? " When it comes to company affairs, Mr. Coburn is still very serious. "It has already been taken over. I am handing over to Global Steel and Global Shipbuilding these days. If you are still a few days late, I should return to Naples." Obviously, several new companies established during the study in the United States have started to operate according to the plan. Then plans to build steel mills and shipyards in Brazil could begin. "Oh! Then meet with them tonight and arrange some work for them. When will the two factories resume production?" Speaking of the factory''s resumption of production, Mr. Coburn couldn''t help feeling rejoicing. "It may depend on the integration situation! Fortunately, we directly acquired Genoa when Genoa had just been recovered. As soon as the Germans surrendered, someone came to inspect the factory. Fortunately, we identified ourselves as a branch of an American company in Italy. was not checked. Another shipyard was directly seized by the occupying forces because it was an Italian company and had built warships for the Italian Navy. Recently, we recruited a lot of talents from their factory employees, alas! It seems that although the war is over, it may take a long time to restore normal life order! " Unexpectedly, there is a shipyard nearby that has built warships for the Italian Navy. Isn''t this exactly what I need? Don''t feel that the combat effectiveness of the Italian army is not good, just think that the Italian equipment is not good either. According to others, it is also a world power, and its equipment manufacturing capabilities are quite good. Just think about some high-end car brands such as Ferrari. "You said that this shipyard has manufactured warships for the Italian Navy? Have we recruited designers from their company?" Talking about the current situation of Italian workers, Mr. Coburn couldn''t help but sigh in his heart. If it wasn''t because Lilith knew Fang Lang, maybe his family would be struggling on the food and clothing line now! Thinking of this, Fang Lang''s son-in-law''s resentment is much less, after all, this is also the benefactor who rescued their family from the sea of ??suffering! "There must be! Now the prices in Italy are soaring and supplies are in short supply. Because of the war, everyone has basically manufactured military equipment for the army. Therefore, many factories are now raided, liquidated, or shut down. The original workers have lost their jobs. Only companies with a US-funded background like ours can still operate normally, and we recruit some workers so that everyone will not be hungry. However, the shortage of various raw materials is severe. For example, steel factories have stopped working because there is no iron ore. " Its a joke to stop working because of raw materials? Brazil is now a supplier of raw materials to the United States! What kind of raw materials do not have. Isn''t this the case when a thirsty person meets a water seller? Fang Lang said indifferently: "Brazil has one of the best iron ore reserves in the world. You asked Global Trade Brazil Branch to directly purchase iron ore from Vale, Brazil, and hurry up to start the factory. Soon, the United States will pass a plan to aid Europe. The demand for basic construction materials such as steel and cement will flourish, and we must seize the opportunity to develop rapidly. " "Aid Europe Program?" Fang Lang immediately realized that he was talking too fast and almost revealed the history, so he quickly changed the subject and said: "Yes, but the time is not so fast. Now Italy should be the most valuable daily necessities such as grain and oil. We must make good use of our own identity as a multinational company. Keep the telegraph unblocked, and circulate the scarce materials between countries at any time. By the way, has the demand for cigarettes slowed down now? " Fang Lang is still very concerned about his main business, with the end of the war. The mental stress of soldiers is not as great as it was during the war, although the demand for cigarettes still exists. However, everyone will not continue to spend high prices to purchase cigarettes. Therefore, when the war was about to end, Fang Lang directly notified Global Trade to start reducing the purchase of cigarettes. Change the direction of operation and start to operate the necessities of people''s life, such as grain, oil, seasoning, coffee and so on. "The sales of cigarettes have dropped significantly, but the good luck cigarettes shipped from Brazil recently have a rich taste and are very distinctive. Although there is no way to maintain the original high price. However, the Gambino family still hopes that this channel will not stop. However, I estimate that after the government officially returns to normal, we may have to obtain a monopoly license for tobacco and alcohol. " Mr. Coburn was born in a formal business after all, so he still has some scruples about cooperating with the Gambino family. Perhaps it is the Mussolini governments crackdown on the Mafia that left him with lingering fears. Afraid that Hao Haos import and export trade will be classified as tobacco smuggling by the government, and he will be in trouble. It is better to obtain the authorization of the government to make him feel at ease. But Fang Lang doesn''t care, the big deal is to let my uncle''s Xinshui Gang directly cooperate with the Gambino family. As long as the cigarettes in my factory can be sold and make money, I don''t bother to sell them. So, Fang Lang said casually: "Hmm! These things are fine for you." (end of this chapter) Chapter 86: Fangyuan Group Chapter 86 Fangyuan Group After Fang Lang finished chatting with his father-in-law in Genoa, he met with the heads of Global Steel and Global Shipbuilding in Genoa. Accompanied by several people, he visited his own steel factory and shipyard. Looking at the blast furnace of the steel factory and the slipway of the shipyard, Fang Lang couldn''t help feeling agitated. This can be regarded as poaching the corner of capitalism! I can''t help but feel a little proud. After I integrate the advanced technology and talents of various factories in Britain, America, Germany and Italy, I will definitely be able to establish my own steel and shipbuilding industry in Brazil. With the addition of containers, container ships, port machinery, and terminals, will there be a chance to become a shipping king! I feel very excited just thinking about it. and several people arranged to recruit manpower, after the task of building a new shipyard and steel factory in Brazil. A few more people were invited to have a big meal, because the father-in-law was present. Some one-stop programs were forced to cancel. Fang Lang, who returned to the fleet, directly contacted his father in Brazil, asking his father to set up a Fangyuan Group in the name of the family, and contacted the mayor of Sao Paulo. Fangyuan Group intends to jointly establish a steel factory and a shipyard in Brazil with U.S. Universal Steel Corporation and Universal Shipbuilding Corporation, and seek preferential and supportive policies from the government. All enterprises except the media in Brazil''s cigarette factory, grain and oil, sugar refining, real estate, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, fertilizers and other industries will be placed under the management of Fangyuan Group. As for why another Fangyuan Group was arranged to be established instead of investing directly in the name of Universal Group, this was a decision made by Fang Lang in combination with Brazil''s later historical situation. Before 1964, the Brazilian government had been committed to developing its own national capital. Therefore, the support for domestic capital is very strong, and foreign capital has a certain degree of vigilance. From the end of World War II to 1964, because of the outbreak of the Cold War, Brazil was repeatedly impacted by two ideologies. The domestic political situation was turbulent, the economy was stagnant, and inflation was severe. Actually, it is not suitable for large-scale investment. This is why the Brazilian economy has always been stagnant, and after the Brazilian army began a military dictatorship in 1964. Brazil''s military began to implement the ruling policy of military governing politics and experts governing the economy. Under the management of economic experts, the country began to absorb foreign capital on a large scale. After transforming the original inward-looking economy into an export-oriented economy, Brazil''s economy began to develop at a high speed, and it stepped onto the stage of a world economic power. Of course, as a traverser, Fang Lang believes that there should be some changes in the history of his intervention. However, at the same time, he deeply realized the irreversibility of the general trend of history. Therefore, he had to be cautious about every decision he made. This is also the reason why he finally decided to stay in the army instead of retiring directly to become a capitalist. It is really surviving in Brazil, and the influence of the army is too great. In a country where military coups happen at every turn, a consortium without the ability to protect itself is just a giant baby crossing the street holding gold ingots, who can be robbed at any time. Of course, before 1964, the military had always achieved its goal of strengthening the country by supporting civilian politicians. However, when they found that no matter how the civil servants changed, it was just a matter of changing the soup without changing the medicine. They completely lost patience. Finally, under the instigation of the CIA of the United States, they directly turned the table. Began to come to power and carried out a military dictatorship that lasted for 21 years. And during this military dictatorship, it was a period of massive influx of foreign capital. Fang Lang established an internal and external joint venture such as Fangyuan Group and Global Group, which can flexibly respond to different political environments in different periods. Simply put, during the period when the government was developing national capital, the major shareholder of the joint venture company was Fangyuan Group. When foreign capital occupies a dominant position, Universal Group is the major shareholder of the joint venture company. However, no matter how it changes, it is Fang Lang''s own company. Moreover, his military background is the company''s best protection. As long as he still has military power, no one dares to touch him. After explaining the company''s affairs, Fang Lang finally had time to calm down and think about the tasks assigned by General Morais. Fang Lang himself is very positive about joining the Pacific battlefield. However, General Chambers said that he would ask MacArthur for his opinion, and Fang Lang just listened to it as a courtesy. It is impossible for Chambers to ask the commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces in the Eastern Battlefield for the opinion of a Brazilian navy captain. Success or failure depends on God''s will. If General Morais can really come forward through the Brazilian government to achieve this goal, Fang Lang is of course happy to see it succeed. Thinking of this, Fang Lang no longer struggled, and directly contacted Reinhardt. "Fang, have you returned to Italy yet?" Hearing Fang Lang''s news obviously made Reinhardt very happy. After all, the two are now not only comrades-in-arms, but also business partners. "Yes, my friend, where are you enjoying the fruits of victory recently! I heard that French girls are very enthusiastic. You can''t enjoy it alone." Fang Lang, who was rarely relaxed, also joked with Reinhardt. Unexpectedly, Reinhardt started to complain. "Hi! Don''t mention it, I was transferred." Reinhardt''s words moved Fang Lang''s heart, it couldn''t be such a coincidence! "What do you mean? Being transferred at this time? Where are you going!" Sure enough, Reinhardt''s answer did not exceed Fang Lang''s expectations, so there is no need to think about how to lead the topic now. "Pacific Fleet, now only the **** little Japan is left. After the battle, you can enjoy the fruits of victory with peace of mind." Fang Lang pretended to be puzzled and said: "You stayed well in the Atlantic Ocean, why did you ask you to go to the Pacific Ocean?" Reinhardt''s answer was very straightforward, and he didn''t have the so-called gentlemanly demeanor that he liked to go around when he first came into contact. "The Yankees despise the Pacific Fleet''s low combat effectiveness, inconsistent equipment, and heavy logistical supply pressure, so they are reluctant to let us join the Pacific battlefield. So, the Ministry of the Navy has transferred all our American ships to the Pacific Fleet, so that the equipment can be guaranteed uniformly! There is no reason to refuse us to join the Pacific battlefield! " Regarding Reinhardt''s answer, Fang Lang already knew it in his heart, so he was not surprised. Quietly lead the topic to himself: "I really envy you, and I have the opportunity to be awarded for meritorious service. I also want to participate in the Pacific battlefield! There is no chance." Fang Lang''s words moved Reinhardt''s heart. To be honest, after the last experience, Reinhardt has slowly begun to face up to his own abilities and is no longer blindly arrogant. At the same time, he admired Fang Lang''s ability to command sea battles. Not everyone can command a naval battle for the first time and have such a record. He couldn''t help but solemnly said: "Are you serious?" Reinhardt''s tone made Fang Lang understand that he was interested. Fang Lang didn''t hide anything, and expressed his thoughts. "Of course I''m serious! If you don''t fight a war, how can you get promoted and make a fortune, and, as you know, I''m Chinese, so of course I want to fight Little Japan." Regarding Fang Lang''s statement, Reinhardt believed that he was telling the truth. Still reminded: "Fang, you have to think about it carefully. The fighting style of the Japanese is completely different from that of the Germans. I heard that these people are crazy. There is a kamikaze special attack team. They are all neurotics who directly drive planes into warships." . Of course Fang Lang, the Japanese kamikaze agent, has heard of this. But the Japanese are not afraid of death, so someone else would be afraid of death! Even if the Japanese did not attack him, he would not let the Japanese go, so he said without hesitation: "So what? Our anti-aircraft firepower is not a display. Don''t you think I can''t deal with Little Japan." Reinhardt could hear Fang Lang''s confidence and his desire to fight from Fang Lang''s tone. "Of course not, your command ability is obvious to all. Do you really want to participate in the Pacific battlefield?" Reinhardt''s reconfirmation made Fang Lang understand that he really cares. He threw out his difficulties in a timely manner. "It can be false, I have already called for a fight, but the Americans disagree." Since Fang Lang has already invited the battle, he must be serious. Thinking about Fang Lang''s miraculous performance on the battlefield, Reinhardt directly invited: "If you are willing to join the Pacific Fleet, I can talk to you for you. My father has a very good relationship with Admiral Fraser of the Pacific Fleet." (end of this chapter) Chapter 87: contact feelings Chapter 87 Contact Emotions Fang Lang had expected what Reinhardt said. If he really cooperated with the British and wanted to join the Pacific battlefield, the only way to join the Pacific Fleet. However, if some things were told by Fang Lang, the taste would definitely be different. Therefore, he said in a slightly questioning tone: "I am the Brazilian Navy, how can I join your British Pacific Fleet?" Reinhardt obviously knows the situation of the Pacific Fleet very well, and said without hesitation: "The Pacific Fleet is originally a mixed fleet! The warships come from the British Empire, Australia, New Zealand, Canada and other countries, and even many warships were captured. You will definitely have no problem joining in." Fang Lang knows all these situations. If he can choose, Fang Lang certainly hopes to join the US fleet, at least he will not have such an intricate relationship as the Pacific Fleet. However, who made the Americans refuse it! well! It''s really a hot face with a cold butt. "Brother, are you serious? I am really moved by what you say! But this is not something I can decide on my own. It needs the approval of high-level government." Hearing Fang Lang''s slightly excited voice, Reinhardt knew that he had to leave the rest to himself. So he laughed and said: "Haha, Fang, don''t worry! The current Pacific Fleet is lacking in strength. A destroyer with your record wants to participate, and the Admiralty is wishing for it!" At the same time, this is also good for me. To be honest, brother, the gift I gave you last time made my father suffer a lot from the Ministry of the Navy. If you can really participate in the Pacific Fleet and help the British Empire Navy fight, then this gift will be infinitely downplayed. This is really good news. No, I have to inform my father of the good news immediately, and let the government come forward to issue an invitation, so that it will become justified. " Without waiting for Fang Lang to answer after finishing speaking, he ended his communication directly. And Fang Lang didn''t expect things to progress to this point at all. If the British government really pushed Fang Lang''s House to join the Pacific Fleet, wouldn''t it be a hit with General Morais''s plan? It seems that my wish of stepping on Mt. Fuji really has a chance to come true! Since there is really a chance to enter the Pacific battlefield, it is very necessary to contact another friend of mine! This friend is of course John Clark, the son of General Clark, commander of the US Fifth Aircraft Carrier Fleet. Because of the true friendship the two established in the hospital, Fang Lang treated John much more casually. "Hey John, how are you doing!" Listening to Fang Lang''s slightly teasing words, John was very happy to be able to communicate with his friends during the war, and laughed loudly: "Haha Fang, why do you have time to contact me! I heard about your outstanding performance on the Atlantic battlefield! I didn''t expect you to be a naval genius. If I knew it, you shouldn''t have been in the army!" Fang Lang was not surprised that John knew his performance in the Atlantic Ocean. After all, General Jackson and his father, General Clark, were good friends. For my friends who despised my experience in the army, although it was not experienced by the reborn Fang Lang, he still retorted without hesitation: "If I don''t hang out in the army, can I have a chance to know you? I don''t know you, you kid can still brag with me safely!" John, who was speechless at the top of Fang Lang, quickly changed the subject. "Uh! It seems very reasonable! Alright! You can always easily convince me. Our battle is not over yet! I don''t have time to brag with you here, so tell me! What are you looking for today? ? Do you need help with your family business again?" Seeing John change the subject, Fang Lang also pretended not to know, and took advantage of the situation to state today''s purpose. Fang Lang didn''t want John to help him participate in the Pacific battlefield. The main purpose was to see if there was a chance to meet him in Asia. The relationship needs to be maintained and moved around. The current communication is not as convenient as that of later generations. Regardless of John''s background, he is indeed Fang Lang''s first real friend after he came to this world. Therefore, Fang Lang wants to maintain this relationship. . That''s why he wanted to inform John that he had the opportunity to go to the Pacific Theater. "You stinky boy, you are talking as if I am looking for you, there must be something. This time I want to tell you a good news." Didn''t think about it, and before Fang Lang could tell the good news, John made up his own brain. directly interrupted: "Fang, you don''t want to tell me that you are going to marry Lilith! This is not good news, you bastard, we agreed to compete fairly at that time!" Fang Lang was so angry with this **** that he wanted to kick him twice. "Okay, Lilith, don''t think about it, didn''t I tell you a long time ago! She is already your younger brother and sister, so you should give up as soon as possible." Mentioning the fact that Lilith became Fang Lang''s girlfriend, John cried bitterly, regretting that he didn''t win it directly. "Oh! God! You **** bastard, you are going to attack my goddess while I am leaving Italy. You wait for me! Tell me! As long as it is not about you and Lilith, other news is nothing to me." It''s good news!" Fang Lang didn''t mind John expressing his feelings for Lily. He knew that John wasn''t real and still missed Lilith. Lilith was almost a ray of light during the two''s hospital stay. The two of them were also used to teasing Lilith when they were hospitalized, but they didn''t expect that Fang Lang would actually succeed. "Bastard, you still dare to miss my woman. Just wait, I will come to you in a moment, and then I will definitely kick you into the Pacific Ocean to make you sober." Fang Lang''s words stunned John. What''s the situation? It''s very dangerous to come to Asia to find him at this time, so he quickly asked: "What do you mean, you want to come to find me? I''m at war now, how come you come to me? You don''t really go to Asia just to kick me! It''s unnecessary! When the war is over, we can''t get together again Not too late!" Fang Lang said unhappily: "What good things are you thinking about! You are not a peerless beauty, I will run so far for you! Let me tell you! Now that the Brazilian government is operating, let me go to the Pacific battlefield, can''t we meet?" Brazil is going to join the Pacific battlefield. This news made John stunned, and asked: "I haven''t heard of your Brazil participating in the Pacific battlefield!" Fang Lang thought to himself, the news of things that have just started to operate must not come out so soon! "You definitely don''t know now! We proposed to the United States to help you work **** the Pacific battlefield and let you the United States support us in building a small naval fleet, but you rejected it." "Why did you come when you refused?" Regarding John''s question, Fang Lang has nothing to hide, after all, this is not a secret. Even if John reports to the higher authorities, it will not affect the overall situation. "You Americans don''t need help, but the British need it! Now wait for the higher-ups to negotiate, and I should join the British Pacific Fleet." Upon hearing the Pacific Fleet, John looked disdainful, and said directly: "Just the dilapidated Pacific Fleet of the United Kingdom? You are not kidding! You are still having a headache because of the lack of uniform logistics supplies! What benefits did you have in the past?" Fang Lang is very clear about what John said. However, his personal goal is not really to get any benefits, so he said indifferently: "I don''t care if it''s good or not, as long as it gives me a chance to ride Mount Fuji, I''m willing to pay for it!" "Fuck, I forgot that you are Chinese, are you really planning to come to Japan to shoot some guns?" "Of course, just firing a few shots is not enough. I want to kill him before they surrender!" Hearing Fang Lang''s murderous tone, John understood Fang Lang''s determination. Since the good brother has an idea, he spares no effort to support it. So after thinking about it, I said: "Well! Brother, if you really want to fight with the Japanese, then I will go to my father and see if I can transfer you to my subordinates. There are more opportunities with us than with the British .What they want now is to take back their colonies, and its up to us to fight the Japanese. Unexpectedly, I just wanted to chat with John about the upcoming meeting, but in the end John offered to help and transferred Fang Lang to the US military. Fang Lang didn''t want John to do something that might have a bad effect on him for his own thoughts. So hesitated: "However, your Atlantic theater has already rejected it!" "That''s why I said I''ll give it a try! I''ll let you know if there''s any good news." As a result, John ended the communication after he answered indifferently. (end of this chapter) Chapter 88: American attitude Chapter 88 The attitude of the United States But said that after John Clark finished the call with Fang Lang, he went directly to his father, Major General Joseph Clark, commander of the US Fifth Aircraft Carrier Fleet, and told his father what Fang Lang said. After hearing what John said, General Clark fell into deep thought. After all military officers reach the position of general, he can''t just look at the problem from a military point of view when he thinks about it. You must have your own political vision, otherwise he will not go far. And General Clark can become a powerful general of the US Navy in an environment full of racial discrimination, and he will definitely not be a mediocre person. So, he saw the essence of this matter at a glance. Brazil''s warships joined the British Pacific Fleet and participated in the Pacific War. This is not a simple matter of increasing the military strength of the British Navy''s Pacific Fleet. Rather, Britain will take this opportunity to exert political influence in the back garden of the United States. Clark could almost foresee that the British would never let go of such a good opportunity. Then, the addition of Brazilian warships to the British Pacific Fleet will have a very bad and unacceptable impact on the United States in Latin America. Compared with this political influence, the cost of providing the Brazilian Navy with a small fleet pales in comparison. After seeing this clearly, Clark directly connected General Nimitz, the commander-in-chief of the Pacific Theater, without hesitation. Here I want to explain to you that General Nimitz is the commander-in-chief of the US Pacific Theater, and MacArthur is the commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces in the Pacific Theater. That is, General Nimitz is only responsible for managing the U.S. military, while MacArthur has to coordinate and manage all the Allied forces. Of course, Nimitz also served as the commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces in the Pacific Theater later. "Your Excellency General, I just received a message and I think I should report it to you. I don''t know if you are free." After receiving an affirmative answer, General Clark put down the phone and went directly to Nimitz''s office. "You mean the British want the Brazilians to join their Pacific Fleet and participate in the Pacific battlefield?" General Nimitz''s question came from General Nimitz''s office, the voice was not loud, and the tone was very flat. As a general who has the power to kill hundreds of thousands of people, this small matter can''t cause his mood swings. "Yes, my son and that Brazilian naval officer are good friends. I don''t know whether the other party revealed the news intentionally or unintentionally." General Clark gave a detailed report to General Nimitz about what happened. "Is the news true?" "I have confirmed on the way here that the Brazilian government diplomats are indeed communicating with the British government on this matter. The specific details are still being discussed." General Clark certainly would not report directly to his superiors without conducting an investigation. Before going to General Nimitz''s office, he had arranged for personnel to conduct a detailed investigation, and the results were obviously true. Hearing General Clark''s report, General Nimitz thought for a while, and continued to speak calmly: Isnt our government involved? "The two parties should have contacted privately and did not notify us. Therefore, they only found out about this after I asked." General Nimitz, who has always been very calm, learned that the two allies were actually colluding behind the back of the United States. His tone finally started to turn bad. "These British people have not let go of the dignity of the so-called empire on which the sun never sets, and they are still reaching out to our America. It is really abominable. Then what do these Brazilians want to do? Does their so-called navy also want to come to Asia to get a share? Is not too presumptuous? " Hearing General Nimitz''s question, General Clark still told what he knew. "As far as I know, the purpose of the Brazilian Navy''s application to us to join the Pacific battlefield was actually to build a modern naval fleet. As for the size of the fleet, we don''t know." General Nimitz showed a disdainful smile and said: "Do they still want to have a fleet of aircraft carriers? Can they afford it?" "This is not clear for the time being. It may take our people to intervene and communicate with them to know what they think." During the question and answer between the two, Nimitz already had a clear understanding of the whole incident. As a commander, he had to think about the problem at a more complex level. "Is it possible that the British government will take the initiative to throw an olive branch to Brazil after receiving the news that we have rejected the Brazilian Navy''s participation in the Pacific battlefield?" This issue has actually been considered by General Clark. After all, the time the Brazilian army participated in the war and Brazil''s views on the war are not likely to actively want to join a battlefield that has nothing to do with them. "This possibility cannot be ruled out." Now that this has become an established fact, it is necessary to consider how to deal with it. General Nimitz looked at General Clark, and he believed that when he came to report this matter, he must have had his own complete thoughts. So ask directly: "What is your opinion?" Clark did not hesitate, and directly confessed his thoughts. "General, I don''t think we can allow the Brazilian Navy to join the British Pacific Fleet. This will do great damage to our international prestige, especially our American strategy. We should come forward to dissuade the Brazilian Navy from this dangerous idea." Although Clark did not say how to dissuade the Brazilians, the meaning is actually very obvious. "You mean we support a fleet of them?" "The war is coming to an end soon. It is the lowest cost solution for us to sell a few surplus warships to them. As long as they agree not to join the British Pacific Fleet." Clark was not surprised that General Nimitz saw through his plan at a glance. However, the specific support depends on General Nimitz''s own considerations. In fact, Clark''s idea is indeed the lowest cost solution to things, as long as the Brazilians get what they want. It will be very difficult for the British to persuade them any more. However, if Brazil is really allowed to achieve its wish, it will pose an uncontrollable risk to the US strategy in the Americas. Therefore, General Nimitz said cautiously: "However, having such a strong navy in South America will affect the regional balance. We must be cautious about this matter." Brazil and Argentina have always been the biggest competitors in South America. Therefore, General Clark has long considered General Nimitz''s concern that it will break the regional balance. "Maybe selling a few warships to Argentina can maintain this balance." Seeing General Clark, since he has considered these issues, it is obviously deliberate. General Nimitz no longer hesitated to let go: "It makes sense, then do it according to your idea!" The idea of ??how to solve the Brazilian government can be solved directly from the political level. However, Fang Lang revealed this question to John, and Fang Lang is still John''s savior and good friend. Since Fang Lang himself is indeed willing to participate in the Pacific War, General Clark also wants to help him achieve his wish, so he said: "I heard what John meant. The Brazilian navy who revealed the news to him is of Chinese descent. He himself hopes that he can join the Pacific battlefield to fight against Japan. What if they really have a strong willingness to fight?" General Clarks words made Nimitz put the coffee cup he had just picked up on the table again, looked at General Clark and said: "Oh! And this situation, does he have a lot of influence in the Brazilian Navy?" General Clark must know about Fang Lang''s situation. After all, this is his son''s savior. He was transferred from the army to the navy and he did his own work! "It should be said that he is a pro-American faction supported by us in the Brazilian Navy. He is only 20 years old. General Chambers arranged for him to participate in our destroyer captain training course. After graduating, he served as an **** for the Atlantic Transport Fleet for the first time, and sank four German submarines. I heard from Chambers that he might be a naval genius, at least in anti-submarine. He is currently the only naval captain in the Brazilian Navy with an actual combat sinking record, and he should be a figure with certain influence in the Brazilian Navy. " General Clarks words aroused the interest of General Nimitz. Nimitz himself was only 22 years old when he was the commander of a destroyer for the first time. He was considered the youngest destroyer captain in the US military. Now I have met a guy who is more fierce than he was when he was younger, and he has obtained the actual combat sinking record when he is younger than himself. Can''t help but make him look different. "There is also this situation. You are so young and have such a resume. I am a little interested in this guy when you say it like this. Since we are going to provide warships to the Brazilian Navy, let this guy be included in your fleet , to help us in the Pacific battlefield! Let''s see if he is really that powerful." With Nimitz''s permission, Clark took the order without talking nonsense. "I understand the general, I will communicate with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in time." (end of this chapter) Chapter 89: Warm and fragrant Chapter 89 Warm and fragrant Fang Lang, who was far away in Genoa, Italy, didn''t expect at all that he just wanted to share the joy of meeting with his good friends. As a result, everything returned to the original point. While Brazil, the United Kingdom, and the United States were discussing each other, what was our classmate Fang Lang doing! Of course it is to enjoy the blessing of Qiren! On the third day after Fang Lang returned to Genoa, Fang Lang handed over the captives, arranged for the maintenance of the House and the new submarine, and arranged the holidays for the crew, when he received a notification from the port sentinel that someone was looking for them. When Fang Lang arrived outside the military port, he saw a black Fiat car parked on the side of the road. Just when Fang Lang was wondering who was looking for him, the car door opened, and two young girls jumped out. It was the two little girls Lilith and Weiwei''an that Fang Lang was thinking about. When Fang Lang was hesitating to go up and hug that girl first, the two girls had already rushed into Fang Lang''s arms together. Almost missed Fang Lang directly to the ground. Feeling the soft bodies of the two girls, Fang Lang was so comfortable that he almost groaned. Breathing out two different fragrances from you, Fang Lang suddenly felt that there were no regrets in life. The scene in front of him caused the American soldiers entering and leaving near the port to whistle non-stop, but Fang Lang didn''t seem to hear anything. Just quietly feeling the warmth and soft jade in his chest, when the three of them embraced in front of the military port regardless, Mr. Coburn, who got off the driver''s seat of the car parked by the roadside, couldn''t stand it any longer. He rang the car horn directly to wake up Fang Lang from the gentle village. Looking at the old man with an ugly face, Fang Lang smiled awkwardly and nodded politely. Looking down at the two little girls who were still hugging him tightly and refusing to let go, Fang Lang reached out and slapped the two''s plump buttocks respectively. The two screamed and jumped out of Fang Lang''s arms in a hurry come out. Looking at the flushed and coquettish girls, Fang Lang laughed and said: "Long time no see, Lilith and Vivian, I miss you so much!" The two also smiled sweetly: "Fang, you are finally back, and we miss you so much." Just when the three of them were about to embrace each other again, Mr. Coburn''s angry voice came from beside him: "Lilith, Vivian, get in the car." Fang Lang didn''t mind when he heard the father-in-law''s obviously dissatisfied voice. He reached out to wrap his arms around the slender waists of the two, and walked towards Coburn''s car. came to Coburn and called "Uncle." Let the two girls into the back seat, reluctantly rejected the girls'' invitation to sit in the back row together, opened the co-pilot''s door, and sat in. Not sitting in the back is not because Fang Lang doesn''t want to, nor is it because there is not enough space in the rear of the car. I was really worried that Mr. Coburn would not be able to resist beating him. He didn''t think his concentration could make his hands obey his command. It seems that it is very necessary for me to hire a special driver, so that I can sit in the back row with the girls without any scruples and make out. Sitting in the co-pilot, Fang Lang turned his head and looked affectionately at the two girls he loved, without making a sound, just admiring the beautiful faces of the two girls with beautiful smiles and the faint smiles under the dresses Beautiful figure. It''s not that Fang Lang has nothing to say, it''s that the man next to him is the father of two girls, and some nasty love words are obviously not suitable for him to learn. After watching for a long time, the two girls had already had spring waves in his eyes, and when their faces became beautiful, Mr. Coburn sighed helplessly in his ear: "Go and drive yourself! I''m going back to work." After speaking, he dropped the car keys, picked up his top hat, turned and left. It seems that they really can''t bear the strong hormonal atmosphere emanating from the crowd. Hearing Mr. Coburn''s words, several people were taken aback for a moment, and then the eyes of the three began to brighten. Fang Lang was not polite, he got out of the car and came to the driving seat, not forgetting to say to Mr. Coburn: "Uncle, please be careful! Don''t worry! I will take good care of them." Mr. Coburn just waved his hand and left without looking back. Seeing that Mr. Coburn did not look back, Fang Lang turned into the cab without hesitation, and turned his head to find that the two girls had already moved closer. Fang Lang hugged the two girls directly and kissed them. As for who to kiss first, in fact, he didn''t know. He would kiss whoever was close to him. It was his own women who treated them differently, which was not conducive to unity! That was called a dark sky, which almost suffocated Fang Lang. After a long time, the three of them who calmed down started the car and began to look for restaurants where they could still eat. "Lilith, don''t you have to go to work?" "I resigned, and the hospital was full of soldiers withdrawn from the battlefield. They were like a pack of hungry wolves. It was too dangerous. So, my mother let me go home." Fang Lang could imagine the scene Lilith said, and couldn''t help admiring the foresight of his mother-in-law. American soldiers are not good men and women. "That''s good. My Lilith is so beautiful. It is a huge loss for me to be looked at by others. It is my mother-in-law who is considerate. It seems that I have to thank her." Listening to Fang Lang''s love words, Lilith said shyly: "It''s just too boring to stay at home. It''s chaotic outside now, and I don''t know when it will return to normal." reached out and touched Lilith''s delicate face and said: "The war is over, and life will get better soon. The next two years may be difficult, but you don''t have to worry, I will take care of everything. My father-in-law and I will take care of everyone. Vivian, how about you? No class Yet?" Beside Wei Wei An slightly smiled and said: "I''m taking a leave of absence! But I''m graduating soon. I want to go on to college, can I?" Hearing Wei Wei''an''s words, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Of course, I will be responsible for all your tuition fees. I wonder if our Vivian has decided which school to apply for?" In fact, most girls abroad are relatively independent, and they dont know how to directly spend money from men. However, the current Italy is a special case, the economic conditions are very bad, and the unemployment rate is frighteningly high. Moreover, the current sisters have basically established a relationship with Fang Lang, and their parents are also supportive. Therefore, Fang Lang said that bearing the tuition fees would not make the two girls feel awkward. And Wei Wei''an was very happy to hear that Fang Lang supported her ideas and was willing to express his support for his studies. Directly said: "I like beautiful clothes, I want to study fashion design at ESMOD, Paris Haute Couture School, is it okay?" Vivian''s words stunned Fang Lang and said: "Is there already a fashion school at this time? It seems that comprehensive universities rarely offer this kind of major, right? The school you mentioned is very good, isn''t it?" Fang Lang can''t really be blamed for this, after all, men don''t know much about the profession of clothing. Of course, with Chinas reform and opening up, garment-making among labor-intensive enterprises has become the industry with the lowest technical threshold. Various small workshop-style garment factories are blooming everywhere, and many professional colleges on clothing design have also begun to appear in China. But Fang Lang in his previous life had transported a lot of clothes and studied navigation, so he was completely blind to this industry! When I heard such a school suddenly in the 1940s, I was stunned. Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Wei Wei''an''s small mouth suddenly pouted, and said dissatisfiedly: "This is the world''s first professional fashion design school. It was established in 1841. Up to now, it is the best fashion design school in the world." Looking at Wei Wei An''s pouted little mouth, Fang Lang''s mouth was a little dry, and after swallowing a mouthful of saliva, he smiled and said: "Wow! Our Vivienne is really amazing. She knows more than me. I''m too ignorant. Let''s do this! I fully support you. If you learn something, I will pay for you in Paris, France. Start your own clothing line." The little girl who was still pouting, heard that Fang Lang was willing to invest in him to set up his own clothing brand, and immediately screamed in surprise: "Fang, is it true? You are so kind, Mu. I love you so much." Fang Lang immediately had a red lip mark on his face. Fang Lang smiled slightly and said: "Of course it is true, how about this brand named Vivienne after you?" "Ah! Sister, did you hear that? Vivienne, I will have my own clothing brand soon." Lilith looked at her younger sister who kept shaking her, and said with a helpless smile: "Okay, I hear you. Vivienne''s branded clothes." Then Lilith turned her head to the other party and said: "Honey, is this really okay? After all, Vivienne is still so young." "It doesn''t matter, I believe Vivian will be successful. I think Vivian usually wears very beautifully. He must have the talent in this area." (end of this chapter) Chapter 90: Blessing of all people Chapter 90 The Blessing of All People Of course, Fang Lang didn''t agree simply to support Vivienne. In fact, when Vivienne mentioned clothing design, Fang Lang immediately thought of how to arrange domestic compatriots. Think about the industry that absorbed the domestic reform and opening up. the largest employed population. It must be textile and clothing! Brazil is a big cotton producing country, how can such a natural advantage be let go! It seems that the establishment of textile factories in Brazil will start, and clothing machinery such as textile machinery and sewing machines will be introduced. The garment factory Fang Lang will also be established, but it will not be the focus. His idea is to set up a large garment factory by himself and play a leading role. Then, push the immigrants to set up their own garment factories, fully blossom, and cultivate the Chinese middle class. Do some industries that require large capital investment, such as garment machinery manufacturing and textile factories. In addition, Brazil also has an advantage that there are global high-quality pastures on the Brazilian plateau, and the output of leather is amazing. Fang Lang, who came from later generations, remembers very clearly that the leather raw materials shipped from Brazil to China, Italy, France and other countries are very amazing. Since there are such good resources, of course we must make good use of them. Developing some shoes, hats, luggage and other enterprises can also absorb a large amount of labor. He is not worried that it will affect the development of future generations of China. When it reopens, Fang Lang is going to support the construction of his hometown on a large scale. No matter how you want to be a good friend of the Chinese people, Dangdang. When Vivian heard Fang Lang''s words, she still raised her eyebrows at her sister, very proud. Since Vivienne can go to school, Lilith is actually still at the age of learning. Mainly because of the war, she didn''t go to school after graduation. "Lilith, what about you? Do you want to go to school, I will send you to study while you are still young!" "But I haven''t read a book for more than three years, is it okay?" Seeing Lilith''s slightly hesitant expression, Fang Lang knew that Lilith also wanted to continue learning. Here we have to admire the high rate of education penetration in Italy. Girls like Vivienne and Lilith can both learn the equivalent of high school graduation in China. It''s pretty amazing in this day and age. Of course, part of the reason is that their father, Mr. Coburn, is a businessman, and the economic conditions are not bad. In fact, during World War II, Italy''s education level was second only to the United States, Britain, and Germany, ranking fourth in the world and surpassing Japan. It can also be seen from the fact that a small country like Italy has so many excellent universities. Although, Fang Lang''s original cultural level is not high. However, Fang Lang, who was reborn, had gone to college. Therefore, the importance of education is also very clear. He is also planning to implement compulsory education for school-age children of Chinese immigrants who immigrate to Brazil to increase the cultural level of Brazilian Chinese. Only in this way can more Chinese be pushed to more important positions in Brazil. Then, as long as all Chinese are instilled with the traditional culture of their ancestors during the basic education period, so that everyone knows where their roots are, he believes that there should not be too many banana people. "What does it matter, aren''t you not working at home now! Then you can study with Vivian. The key is whether you have a professional direction you want to study." "Am I really okay?" Lilith said in a slightly unconfident tone. Before Fang Lang could speak, Vivian had already spoken. "Hey! Lilith, your academic performance is better than mine when you were studying! No problem, let''s study together." Fang Lang stretched out his right hand from the front to hold Lilith''s hand and said: "Honey, I believe you can do it. You just need to choose the direction of your efforts and go forward bravely. I will be your strongest backing and provide you with all support." Feeling the temperature and strength from Fang Lang''s hands, Lilith knew that Fang Lang was conveying confidence to him. After thinking for a while, Lilith gritted her silver teeth and said: "Okay, after I go back, I will study with Vivian. I want to be a doctor. When I was a nurse in a naval hospital during the war, I wanted to be a doctor. However, there are very few female doctors now, and I don''t want to be a doctor." Know if I have a chance." This is a problem. Women nowadays are indeed discriminated against in many cases, although the world launched the first feminist movement at the end of the nineteenth century. But the focus of the debate is to require gender equality, including the life course equality between men and women. The most important goal is to strive for the equality of family labor and social labor, and the equal value of political rights. does not change the idea that society is based on the subordination of women to men. Therefore, the status of women in this period is actually not high. Including, in terms of marriage, monogamy was the mainstream in ancient Europe, but polygamy still existed widely. According to "1 Kings", "Solomon had seven hundred concubines and three hundred concubines", which can be described as a group of wives and concubines; For another example, King Louis XIV of France had seventeen children, who were born to his queen and mistress respectively. So, mistresses actually existed in a very extensive form in Europe during this period. This is why Mrs. Coburn pushed out the sisters together in order to tie Fang Lang. Some people may say that modern society no longer has such backward polygamy. Then you are wrong, take the United States, which is recognized as the most advanced, as an example. The law expressly prohibits polygamy, but the phenomenon of polygamy still exists in Mormon culture. Mormonism is the fifth largest religion in the United States. It has formed the so-called "Mormon Cultural Zone" in the nine western states of the United States. Mormons firmly believe that God encourages upright men who abide by the "Holy Mormon Covenant" to marry more than one wives, and regards polygamy as a "principle," a "heavenly marriage," or a "new eternal covenant." In 1953, Arizona law enforcement authorities took raids on polygamous communities, but they were accused of violating citizens'' religious beliefs and freedoms, and were widely reported by the media; In fact, the spread of polygamy is also condoned in reality. Until now, Americans still believe that polygamy is immoral, but some people think that if adults live in a polygamous environment voluntarily and do not harm others, the government has no reason to make this behavior illegal. After World War II, due to the large number of adult male deaths in Europe and America, the relationship between mistresses was very common for a long period of time. (Its getting too far here! Lets go back to the topic.) Female occupational discrimination during World War II was actually very serious. It was not until the 1960s and 1970s, after the second wave of feminism, that some career fields began to open to women. It was not until the third feminist movement in the 1990s that women began to be completely liberated. In this period, women mostly exist as nurses, and there are only a handful of female doctors, so Lilith''s worries are real. Since his lover wants to become a doctor, Fang Lang of course spares no effort to provide support! "Don''t worry! Lilith, let''s see if there is any medical school that recruits female students. If there is, we will apply for this school. If not, I will donate to Harvard Medical School in the United States for you. They take you. If you cannot find a suitable hospital to accept you after graduation, I will build a hospital specially for you and let you be the dean. You can see whoever you want. Don''t worry, nothing will get in your way. " Listening to Fang Lang''s bold words, Lilith was so moved that her eye circles began to turn red, she reached out from the back row and hugged Fang Lang tightly. Fang Lang''s face was covered with bright red lips. "Honey, I love you! I give you my heart and soul." Hearing Lilith''s emotional words, Fang Lang trembled and was very excited. This means, can you just overthrow it tonight? So what are you waiting for, Fang Lang is not a polite person. At this moment, Vivienne next to her also said delicately: "Me too, honey, and I''ll be with you tonight too." What''s going on here, knocking down two at the same time? Will it be too beastly? However, if you don''t push it, it will be worse than a beast. How could we, the beast, Lang do things that are inferior to the beasts! Looking at the two girls behind him with bright eyes, Fang Lang didn''t say anything, but started to laugh without listening. Soon the two girls blushed under Fang Lang''s fiery eyes and hehe''s cheap laughter. However, although the cheeks of the two were flushed when Fang Lang looked at them, their eyes did not flinch. Instead, they looked at Fang Lang affectionately. This situation is something that even a man can''t stand! Fortunately, Fang Lang''s body is a young man, but his heart is very mature, so he didn''t rush to take the two of them to the hotel directly. Instead, they took the two of them to enjoy a good meal in a high-end restaurant. Then, I want to take the two of them to go shopping and shopping. As a result, there was nothing worth visiting at all. I dont know if a few people didnt find the right place, or because of the war, the materials were all tilted towards the war, and there were not many places for shopping and consumption. After a few people could only visit the Episcopal Church of San Lorenzo, Fang Lang took the two girls to a high-end seaside resort hotel. I know that people don''t like to read the contents of the high-end hotel suites, so I won''t describe them too much here.

(end of this chapter) Chapter 91: the holiday is over Chapter 91 The holiday is over On the first day of June, the afterglow of the setting sun sprinkled on the sparkling sea, and the golden halo filled the air of Genoa with a taste of happiness. Fang Lang is taking his sisters to spend in his newly bought sea view villa, allowing the beauties to experience the delicious Chinese food. A phone call came in. "Fang, the command from the Expeditionary Force Headquarters has arrived. Go to the Naval Headquarters at 9:00 tomorrow morning to receive the order." Colonel Parisi''s slightly excited voice came out. "Colonel Parisi, what order do you mean?" It has been two full weeks since the last discussion in General Morais''s office about going to the Pacific battlefield. During the period, Fang Lang also asked Colonel Parisi about the progress of the matter. However, the answers received are still in communication, so we need to wait patiently. Fang Lang thought it was over, but he didn''t expect that when he was immersed in the tenderness, he suddenly received a notification, and he didn''t know the specific result. "I''m not very clear about the specific situation. I only know that Rear Admiral Friedrich Crook, the chief of staff of the Navy''s General Staff, will personally come to convey new orders to you. I request that you be at the Expeditionary Force at nine o''clock tomorrow morning. Naval Command awaits." Although Colonel Parisi did not know the specifics of the matter. However, this time, Rear Admiral Crook, Chief of Staff of the Department of the Navy, personally rushed over from Brazil to read out this order, so you can know the weight of this order. Looking at the two girls sitting beside him, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Okay! I hope there will be good news, I thought things were over! Tomorrow morning, I will go to report on time." Colonel Parisi also smiled when he heard Fang Lang''s words: "This kind of major event between countries cannot be decided directly in a few words. It must require repeated communication and consideration of the interests of all parties before they can finally reach a consensus. Two weeks is already considered very fast, remember to be more energetic tomorrow, this Major General Crook is a senior officer who pays great attention to military appearance and discipline. Don''t be too casual tomorrow. So be it! See you tomorrow. " After finishing the call with Colonel Parisi, Fang Lang reached out and patted the sofa beside him. Sister Lilith naturally sat down on both sides and leaned against Fang Lang. "Honey, are you leaving again?" Before Fang Lang could speak, Lilith took the initiative to embrace Fang Lang''s left arm and asked. Feeling the softness from his arms, Fang Lang''s heart was full of tenderness, and he said with a little reluctance: "Yes! It should be a new order. This time, I may be away for about three months. You should learn obediently!" "Huh? So long? I don''t want you to go?" Before Fang Lang could speak, his right arm was hugged tightly, Vivian said softly. Looking at the reluctance of the two women, Fang Lang gently stroked the backs of the two, smiling and saying: "Don''t worry! Three months will pass soon, you have to study hard and strive to pass the exam this time. I will go to you directly after my mission is over." "If we really pass the exam, wouldn''t it be more difficult to see you?" Vivien''s face was full of displeasure. After all, she was still a young girl. She had just spent two weeks as conjoined twins with Fang Lang, and she was about to separate suddenly. Lilith is older, her thinking is more mature, and she can treat the short-term separation between lovers more rationally. "Okay, Vivienne! Fang is a soldier, and we are still in wartime, so we don''t want to be his hindrance. Fang is definitely reluctant to part with us. We just need to pray for Fang every day and hope that he can come back safely. Don''t do anything else. There are too many demands." Hearing Lilith''s words, Fang Lang kissed the foreheads of the two with some distress before saying: "If the two feelings last for a long time, how can they be in the morning and evening. This is a poem from my hometown, and I give it to you. Don''t worry! The war will end soon, and there will be no more danger. . I will also visit you when you are studying, and when you graduate, I will bring you together, build a big house, and live a shameless life together every day. Each of you gave me two babies, and we are just like this, sitting in the afterglow of the sunset, watching the children run on the beach. okay? " Fang Lang''s words made the two fall into deep longing, as if their children were really running and playing on the beach not far away. Yearning could not help appearing on his face. When Fang Lang finished tidying up and was about to go out, the two women were still lying naked on the bed and sleeping soundly. After Fang Lang kissed the two of them lightly on the forehead, he quietly exited the room. Go out and drive to the Naval Headquarters of the Expeditionary Force by yourself, facing the rising sun all the way, the breeze blowing by the sea carries the fresh fragrance of flowers. Looking at the rising sun not far away, Fang Lang had a hunch that there should be good news today. I couldn''t help but start looking forward to today''s order. Fang Lang, who came to the headquarters, nodded to the officers he knew and didn''t know all the way. During this period of time, Fang Lang still often visited the Navy Command when he was working. After all, this is their own station now. All naval officers know that although this young Asian is still holding the rank of major, the time for promotion should not be far away. After all, this young man is the only captain in the Brazilian Navy who has a record of actual combat sinking, and his destroyer is the most advanced warship in Brazil. The future of such young people must be limitless. Even many young naval officers and soldiers hope to be transferred to his command, not because he is handsome. Rather, because he can lead everyone to victory. The army is a place that depends on strength. Whoever can lead them to victory will gain their loyalty. Brazil''s naval headquarters in Genoa is a fortress-style two-story building, which should have a history of hundreds of years. Parisi''s office is in the innermost part of the east side of the second floor. There is a lot of space, and there are not many personnel in the entire naval command. After all, the number of Brazilian expeditionary navy is only a little. However, as an occupying force, they have the right to requisition an address in Italy as they see fit as an office. The door of Parisi''s office was not closed, Fang Lang knocked a few times, and walked in directly. The relationship between Fang Lang and Parisi no longer needs to pay attention to some etiquette, both parties are very casual. Seeing Parisi looking at a document, Fang Lang didn''t say much, and went straight to the front reception area to make coffee. "Don''t just worry about yourself, boy, make me a cup too. It''s still early, we don''t need to rush." Parisi said casually. "Well! Where''s your orderly? Ask him to get me some bread from the restaurant. I haven''t had breakfast yet! I''m a little hungry." Before Parisi could speak, the orderly who had just walked into the office with a kettle said immediately: "Sir, wait a moment! I''ll get it for you right away." The orderly also knew that the relationship between Fang Lang and Parisi was very close. Therefore, he answered without hesitation. Fang Lang nodded to him with a smile and said: "That''s hard work, see if there are any eggs, and get me two. Thank you!" The orderly nodded with a smile on his face and said: "Okay, sir, come right here." Looking at the orderly who left, Colonel Parisi smiled and said: "Why, you also like my orderly?" Fang Lang handed Colonel Parisi a cup of coffee while smiling and said: "No matter what, I just envy you who have both adjutants and orderlies. You don''t have to do anything yourself, how comfortable it is." Parisi also put down the documents in his hand, got up and took a sip of coffee, walked to Fang Lang and sat down. "Don''t worry! You will have these soon, kid. Your rank of colonel will not be stuck, and there will definitely be a clear result this time." Fang Lang stirred in the coffee cup with a spoon, smelling the aroma of pure coffee, and said casually: "Oh! Got a clear message?" "I can''t hear the wind from the upper floors, but there are also some winds from below. But I''m not sure about the accuracy, so don''t say it, it will be clear when the order is read out." After speaking, he blew on the hot air on the coffee and took a sip. "Okay then! I''m not in a hurry for a while." "I heard from my brother that your family has made a lot of noise in Rio Grande do Sul! You opened three factories directly, and my brother was praised for this incident." What Colonel Parisi said was exactly the penicillin production equipment and pesticide and fertilizer production equipment purchased by Fang Lang from the United States. After Fang Xinshui communicated with the Alegre Municipal Government, it has officially settled in Alegre. In addition, small batch trial production will be possible at the end of July. "Hi! A little business. Why are you interested?" Actually, Colonel Parisis retirement was forced, not his own intention. Since he was on the wrong team, there was nothing to complain about. It is thankful to be able to withdraw safely. Although he himself is reluctant, he is powerless to change. Fortunately, I met a dark horse like Fang Lang, who was able to take over some low-level officers who followed him, so that he would not let him leave the field sadly. Listening to Fang Lang''s inquiry, he shook his head with a smile and said: "I don''t have such a big capital. I have already bought a farm and am going back to be a leisurely farmer." (end of this chapter) Chapter 92: new job new task Chapter 92 New Position New Task Colonel Parisi''s ability is definitely not a problem, as can be seen from the ideas he gave Fang Lang. Although, the Brazilian Expeditionary Force Navy is small in size and has no combat effectiveness. However, to be able to be transferred out to be in charge of the management of the expeditionary navy will definitely not be an ordinary person. Therefore, Fang Lang really felt a little pity about his retirement. After thinking about it, he said: "You are in the prime of life, so it''s not okay to start enjoying retirement so early. You are from the navy. Let''s invest in a fishing company in Alegre together. Buy it with hundreds of fishing boats, go out to sea to catch fish, and catch big fish. How about the lobster. By the way, you can also continue to be your own naval commander, how about it? " This is really what Fang Lang just thought of, and it is suitable for Parisi''s work. After all, Brazil has a long coastline, relying on the big Atlantic Ocean, it is impossible not to reach out to the ocean! "Hey! This proposal is okay! I have no problem with management. However, so many fishing boats can get a lot of seafood, and we Brazilians don''t have a high demand for seafood!" This is really not Parisis evasion. Brazils coastline stretches for more than 7,000 kilometers, ranking 16th in the world, and its fresh water resources account for 20% of the worlds total. Fishery resources are very rich, with more than 2,500 species of fish resources. However, Brazilians who advocate freedom and are good at enjoying life have special requirements for food. They like to eat a lot of meat. It is more appropriate to describe Brazilians as "no meat, no joy". Under the influence of long-term immigrant culture, Brazil has formed a unique eating habit. In the Brazilian food tradition, black bean rice, cassava bread, and Brazilian barbecue are the protagonists. Except for some seafood eaten in coastal areas, it is basically difficult to see seafood in inland areas. This is somewhat similar to the situation in China. But Fang Lang never thought about how much seafood he would sell in Brazil. The real big seafood consumers have always been European and American countries. "What does it matter! We can make chilled or canned food and sell them to European and American markets! This is a good business that earns US dollars. You don''t have to worry about the sales, I will take care of it. How? Are you interested in trying it?" Fang Lang''s proposal, Colonel Parisi was really tempted. He is an old navy and has been floating in the sea all his life. It would definitely be uncomfortable to ask him to come back home and be a farmer suddenly. Just when the two were about to continue chatting, Parisi''s adjutant came in and reported: "Sir, Rear Admiral Crook of the Admiralty is coming soon." "Oh! Fang, then let''s go down to meet him!" Speaking of which, Colonel Parisi got up and stood up. Fang Lang also got up right after him, and after tidying up the folds on the military uniform, he strode to the door to greet him. Not long after the two arrived at the door, they saw three black Buick cars driving outside. A major officer got off the co-pilot seat of the vehicle in the middle, nodded to the two, and opened the rear door. Colonel Parisi and Fang Lang hurriedly stood at attention and saluted. I saw a gray-haired Caucasian major general in his fifties getting out of the car. Although Mr. Major General is white, his complexion looks a bit modern and tanned. A pair of gold-rimmed glasses makes him look a bit gentle. , However, the straight back makes it easy for people to see the person''s military background. Colonel Parisi was the first to speak: "General Crook, good morning! You have worked hard all the way!" Major General Crook extended his right hand and shook Parisi, nodded and said: "Colonel Parisi, good morning! This is Major Fang Lang!" As he spoke, he looked at Fang Lang who was standing aside. Fang Lang also stood at attention and said loudly: "Report Your Excellency, General, I am Fang Lang, Captain of the Expeditionary Navy House. Welcome!" General Crook laughed loudly after hearing Fang Lang''s words: "Fang, you are so young! Come on, let''s go in and talk." As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and gave Fang Lang a firm shake. He pulled Fang Lang and started walking towards the office building. Fang Lang hurriedly followed, and after General Crook let go, he was a body behind and walked towards the office building together. Colonel Parisi led the way, and soon brought everyone to a conference room that had been furnished. More than 20 officers were already seated in the meeting room, except for five officers who were field officers, most of them were lieutenant officers. Here should be all the officers of the entire Brazilian Expeditionary Navy. Following the command to stand up, everyone stood up straight. General Crook came to the main seat, looked at the people in the meeting room, and pressed his hands down, motioning for everyone to sit down. Everyone slammed and sat down. "Everyone, I have three things to announce to you when I come here today. First of all, we want to congratulate Fang Lang, Lieutenant Commander of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, who was promoted to the rank of colonel by the Brazilian Navy Ministry. Let us all applaud and congratulate!" Everyone looked at Fang Lang with burning eyes, with shock, admiration, envy, and jealousy in their eyes. Although Fang Lang had expected it a long time ago, Fang Lang still felt excited when this moment came. He stood up quickly and gave a military salute to everyone. The major officer who followed General Crook came to Fang Lang''s side with a gift box in his hand and stood still. Major General Crook also came over, picked up the colonel''s rank on the gift box, and pinned it to Fang Lang''s collar himself. "Colonel Fang, thank you for your excellent performance in the European War and the achievements you have achieved. It has attracted the attention of the world and made all Brazilian soldiers proud of you. I hope you will continue to work hard and achieve better results." After finishing speaking, he saluted Fang Lang. Fang Lang also quickly returned the gift and said: "Thank you and the country for your trust, I will definitely live up to my mission and create greater glories." After the ceremony, Crook shook hands with Fang Lang again with a smile, and gently patted Fang Lang''s arm with his left hand. A boy I like your expression very much. Make others envious. After the conferment of the title was completed, General Crook returned to the main seat, took out a document again and said: "Then let''s announce the second thing, everyone stand up!" With a sound of "shua", all your officers in the conference room stood up and looked at General Crook with serious faces. After looking around for a week, General Crook read aloud: "Order, from now on, Colonel Fang Lang is appointed as the commander-in-chief of the Brazilian Navy''s First Fleet, responsible for the establishment and management of the First Fleet''s overall work. This Order, Ministry of Defense and Navy of the Federative Republic of Brazil, June 1, 1945. " After the reading, General Crook transferred the commission and announced it to everyone. Then he handed his hands to Fang Lang, who was already fighting. Regarding this appointment, General Morais has also disclosed it to Fang Lang in advance, including Colonel Parisi. However, the other officers on the scene were not clear, and they couldn''t help but cast their eyes on Fang Lang. After all, no one knows the exact size and scale of the Brazilian Navy''s First Fleet. And Fang Lang himself doesn''t know now, so he definitely can''t answer it for everyone. After receiving the letter of appointment, Fang Lang didn''t say much, but said loudly after a salute: "Yes, General!" Immediately afterwards, without waiting for Fang Lang to sit down, General Crook took out an order again and read it aloud: "Order, the Commander of the First Fleet, Guan Lang, will lead all the warships of the First Fleet to Saipan Island before July 1, join the Fifth US Aircraft Carrier Battle Group, and participate in the Pacific War. This Order, Ministry of the Navy of the Federative Republic of Brazil, June 1, 1945. " After speaking and showing the order to everyone again, he handed his hands to Fang Lang who was still standing there. This order was completely beyond Fang Lang''s expectations. Didn''t you mean to join the British Pacific Fleet? Why has it become a battle order to join the U.S. Navy now! It seems that many twists and turns happened in these two weeks! However, this has nothing to do with Fang Lang, as long as he is sure that he can participate in the Pacific War. I couldn''t help shouting loudly in my heart: "Gou Ri''s little devil, your grandpa Fang is here. I want to ride Mount Fuji." Definitely can''t show it on the surface, suppressing the excitement in my heart. After a standard military salute, he said loudly in as calm a tone as possible: "Yes, General!" Next, Fang Lang was completely unclear about what General Crook said, because his mind was filled with the excitement of being able to step on Mount Fuji. When the meeting ended, everyone came up to shake his hand and say goodbye, and he was in a trance the whole time. After everyone left, he was going to leave with them. Just as he walked to the door, he was grabbed by Colonel Parisi before he realized it. (end of this chapter) Chapter 93: prepared by Chapter 93 Compilation Arriving at Colonel Parisi''s office, General Crook was already sitting on the sofa in the reception area and waiting. Seeing Fang Lang and Colonel Parisi coming in, he was not polite, pointed to the sofa next to him and said: "Come and sit down." Fang Lang glanced at Colonel Parisi, and sat up together. "Why, I think you have some doubts, Fang?" General Crook smiled and lit a cigar. "Report to the general! I will resolutely carry out the order!" Fang Lang doesn''t know much about the Rear Admiral in front of him, so he must dare not tell the truth! It can only mean obeying orders and obeying commands. Hearing Fang Lang''s words, General Crook didn''t take it seriously, and smiled and handed the cigar box to the two, motioning for both of them to take one. Fang Lang was about to say that he didn''t smoke cigars, and was about to refuse. Kicked on the foot, he knew it was Colonel Parisi''s action, so he couldn''t help being taken aback. Colonel Parisi reached out with a smile on his face and took out a cigar from the humidor. Just when Fang Lang thought it was an illusion and was about to extend his hand to refuse again, his foot was kicked again. Now Fang Lang understood what Colonel Parisi meant. Colonel Parisi knew that Fang Lang didn''t smoke, but he still kicked Fang Lang twice. Fang Lang stretched out his hand quickly, and took out a cigar from the humidor with a smile on his face. Although, Fang Lang didn''t understand why Colonel Parisi asked himself to take the cigar. However, Fang Lang knew that Colonel Parisi should be harmless. Seeing that both of them got the cigars, General Crook casually put down the cigar box and said: "Fang, don''t be nervous, we are all on our own. I understand that the two of you proposed this trip to the Pacific battlefield to General Morais. I agree with your ideas. The Brazilian Navy needs a modern naval fleet. Now is indeed a rare opportunity, and I must express my admiration for your ingenuity. I dont know what Fang has to do with the US Navys 5th Carrier Strike Group to make them suddenly offer to invite you to join their fleet to fight together. However, what I want to tell you is that our Ministry of the Brazilian Navy has seen your efforts in building a modern naval fleet for the Brazilian Navy, and our Brazilian Navy will never forget your credit. " Fang Lang was a little confused by what he said, and he didn''t know whether what General Crook said was truth or irony. Think about the fact that the naval officers of your own country are too close to those of other countries. According to Fang Lang''s thinking, this is a wrong political tendency that should not appear. So Fang Lang didn''t know how to answer General Crook''s words, so he could only bite the bullet and defend himself: "Your Excellency, General, I really hope that our Brazilian Navy can have a modern naval fleet to maintain our own maritime security. Privately, I did contact some of my friends in the British and American armies, hoping they could give some help. But please rest assured that I am Brazilian and everything I do is for the rise of the Brazilian Navy. " General Crook laughed and said: "Fang, don''t be nervous, we don''t mean to blame you. Britain and the United States are our allies, and it is very necessary to maintain long-term, smooth and effective communication with the militaries of advanced countries. As for your proactive and effective communication with their navies this time, we, the Brazilian Ministry of the Navy, appreciate it very much. It is because of your communication that the United States agreed to sell us a Cleveland-class cruiser, two Fletcher-class destroyers, and a Shark-class submarine at a low price after the war. He even said that he would give us two LST tank landing craft. After communication between the Expeditionary Force Command, the Brazilian Ministry of the Navy, and the Ministry of Defense, it was finally unanimously decided to assign all these new warships to your Navy''s First Fleet. We hope that during your battle with the fifth US aircraft carrier battle group, you can earnestly study the combat experience of the aircraft carrier battle group and lay a solid foundation for Brazil to have its own aircraft carrier battle group in the future. " General Crook''s statement is equivalent to directly indicating that the Brazilian Navy will focus on training Fang Lang, making him the commander of the first aircraft carrier formation of the Brazilian Navy in the future. Before Fang Lang could express his excitement, Colonel Parisi slapped his thigh and said: "Fang, you are really great. In this way, our Brazilian Navy will soon have its own aircraft carrier battle group. I didn''t expect that our Brazilian Navy will have such a powerful day. You actually have a relationship with the US aircraft carrier battle group, you must make good use of this! Learn more about the combat experience of aircraft carrier battle groups. When we really have our own aircraft carrier battle group one day, be sure to invite me to board the aircraft carrier for a visit! " As an admiral, no one can refuse the temptation of an aircraft carrier. Although there were a large number of battleship fans in the Brazilian Navy before the war. However, as the war continued, battleships have slowly begun to be marginalized. The Brazilian Navy has no experience with submarines, let alone aircraft carriers, so this time Fang Lang was able to participate in the battle of the US aircraft carrier battle group, and was regarded by the insightful people of the Brazilian Navy as a rare learning opportunity in actual combat. Unfortunately, the Americans did not invite everyone to study together, but only invited Fang Lang. Therefore, in this matter, Fang Lang naturally became the only candidate for the commander of the aircraft carrier fleet. Since Fang Lang is the only candidate, the **** fleet needed to support the aircraft carrier must of course be handed over to Fang Lang''s command. This made the Brazilian Navy''s voice to carve up these new warships directly ignored. Seeing that neither of them seemed to care much about their specific relationship in the US Navy, Fang Lang didn''t explain too much. What he is most concerned about now is the specific composition of his fleet. "Your Excellency, please rest assured! I will definitely make good use of this rare opportunity of actual combat learning to learn the command experience of an advanced aircraft carrier fleet. Just now you said that the warships given to us by the Americans can only be sold to us at a low price after the war is over, right? " Seeing General Crook take a puff of cigarette, he nodded while motioning for the two to light their cigarettes. Fang Lang continued to say: "Then I go to the Pacific battlefield this time and take the House and the captured submarine directly, right?" General Crook nodded after listening and said: "Yes, it is up to you to decide whether you need to bring a submarine or not. However, our crew is still in the groping stage for the operation of submarines. I hope you will give them some time to learn. In addition, our Brazilian Navy Department''s future plan for your First Fleet is to hope that it can become an independent combat unit with combined sea, land and air strike capabilities. Although we dont have an aircraft carrier yet, we will transfer ten fighter jets and pilots from the Air Force of the Expeditionary Force to your command. In the early stage, they will use seaplanes to train in Natal and listen to your command at any time. The army will equip you with a marine force of four to five hundred people after we coordinate with General Morais of the expeditionary force. We allow you to form specific personnel and commanders by yourself. I hope you can seize the time and set up the shelf of the First Fleet as soon as possible. And form a complete report and submit it to our Admiralty. As for going to the Pacific battlefield, we must hurry up. Considering the Okinawa campaign that the United States is launching now, it is said that the US Marine Corps has suffered nearly 20,000 casualties, and the Japanese Army is still stubbornly resisting. General Morais suggests that you can lead Own Marines go to Japan. Although there are not many troops, it can also let our allies see the strength of our support for them. " Fang Lang didn''t expect the Brazilian Navy to be so anxious. Now that there is no shadow of an aircraft carrier, he has started to equip himself with fighter jets and marines. Brazil''s first aircraft carrier in history was the giant-class aircraft carrier "HMS Revenge" purchased from the British in 1956, and this aircraft carrier has just been completed from the British shipyard at this time, and has not yet entered service in the British fleet. Judging from this time, Brazil is indeed dreaming of an aircraft carrier, and even a little impatient. There is no such little butterfly as itself in history, and now it seems that Brazil is really likely to have an aircraft carrier of its own in advance. As for the Okinawa battle that the Americans are organizing now, Fang Lang knew that it would be difficult for him to catch up. After all, the battle will be completely over at the end of June. And when I set off to Saipan now, the battle must have ended. After the Battle of Okinawa, Fang Lang knew very well that basically there would be no large-scale wars. This war basically ruined Japan''s last naval power. Of course, this does not mean that all the warships of the Japanese Navy were sunk, but that Japan''s last fuel stockpile was consumed. In response to the Battle of Okinawa launched by the U.S. military, the Japanese Combined Fleet spent a lot of effort to collect 2,500 tons of fuel, which is less than half of the 6,400-ton capacity of the "Yamato" fuel tank, barely enough to guarantee the one-way fuel consumption to Okinawa needed. After this battle, the US warship anchorage moved directly to Okinawa Island, and most of the time it was bombing the Japanese mainland by plane. Admiral William Leahy, chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, pointed out to the current US President Truman that the next attack direction will be Japan''s Kyushu Island. Comparing the resistance of the Japanese on Okinawa, if the Battle of Kyushu is launched, the United States will need to invest about 767,000 Marines and be prepared for 268,000 casualties. This figure is about the same as that of the US military so far The same number of people died on every battlefield in the world. Therefore, the U.S. government was very unwilling to launch a landing operation easily, and U.S. President Truman also made it clear that he "hoped it would be possible to prevent the recurrence of the Okinawa-style battle throughout Japan." According to the plan formulated by the US Joint Chiefs of Staff in Washington, it was required to attack Kyushu Island in the autumn of 1945, and attack Japan''s main island Honshu Island in March 1946. President Truman also agreed to this plan. If it weren''t for the "little boy and fat man" being dropped in Hiroshima and Nagasaki, it would have directly penetrated the defense line of the Japanese devils. This homegrown offensive plan must be executed. If this plan is really to be implemented, it is definitely not enough for Brazil to invest in a battalion of marines. Fortunately, this plan will not be implemented. (end of this chapter) Chapter 94: departure preparation Chapter 94 Preparations for Departure Fang Lang has this battalion of marines in his hands. When he lands in Japan, Fang Lang has a lot of room to operate. "Your Excellency, General, judging from the current situation, the Japanese navy has no remaining strength. My opinion is to let submarines join in, attack Japanese transport ships, and practice actual combat experience. And if I bring the marines, I need two supply ships to accompany me. Don''t know if it will be available. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, General Crook did not hesitate, and nodded directly: "Of course there is no problem. Then you mean to directly take the Howes and Hope submarines (named by the Admiralty for the first submarine captured) plus a supply ship?" "Yes, Your Excellency General, if we arrive at Saipan on July 1st as requested by the U.S. military, our preparation time will be less than five days. I hope that I can immediately arrange for my Marine Corps Commander Duarte to go to the expeditionary force." Pick the marines. and start material preparation. Strive to be able to set off in the early morning of June 5th. I wonder if you have any other orders? " Crook was obviously very satisfied with Fang Lang''s vigorous and vigorous style, and nodded with a smile, stood up and said: "It seems that your time will indeed be very tight, so I won''t waste your time this time, you hurry up and prepare. I''m waiting for the good news of your victory, and we''ll have a good chat after you return to Brazil. Im here first today, and I have to go to the expeditionary force headquarters, so I left first. Please teach Little Japan a lesson for me. " Seeing that General Crook was about to leave, Fang Lang and Colonel Parisi also hurriedly got up to send them off, which was naturally very polite. After the two watched General Crook''s convoy leave the Naval Headquarters downstairs, Colonel Parisi also patted Fang Lang''s arm excitedly and said: "Fang, you are really good. The Brazilian Navy will depend on you in the future, commander of the aircraft carrier battle group!" Fang Lang was of course very excited, but he still said a little reservedly: "I haven''t set up a shelf yet! Only when all the warships are in hand can it be officially established!" "Haha. You don''t look like a young man at all. If I could get such a position at your age, I would have jumped up. But it also shows that you are indeed better than all of us. This time such a large fleet is formed, you can''t be too willful! Some positions will definitely be filled with people, so you have to prepare yourself. " From the fact that Colonel Parisi was able to say these words to Fang Lang so bluntly, Fang Lang also knew that Colonel Parisi was really sincere to him, and as an old navy, he must also have affection for all the personnel of the navy A certain understanding. So Fang Lang said to Colonel Parisi after thinking about it: "What positions do you think I can hold in my hands?" Fang Lang''s words also caused Colonel Parisi to fall into contemplation, and it took a long time before he spoke: "First of all, you must be the captain of the cruiser. Then, now that you have arranged for De La Torre on the submarine of the Hope, no one should compete with you. And you should also be the captain of the House. Personnel can be arranged to take over. As for the remaining warship officers, I suggest that you can arrange some important positions and distribute them. Hand over the position of the chief officer, so that there are a total of eight warships and you arrange three of them to be your own people, and everyone should not have any opinions. The commander of the Marine Corps has now been determined to be your own person, so the most important thing now is that you must hurry up and find someone of your own to serve as your future air force commander. " Although Fang Lang doesn''t understand the distribution of forces and parties in the Brazilian Navy, Parisi must have his own reasons for saying this. It seems that he must have a basic understanding of the relationship between personnel within the Brazilian Navy Department. okay. "Is there any chance if I''m in the running for the command of another submarine?" Colonel Parisi turned twice and said: "If it was me, I might not have a chance, but you have a special status in the Brazilian Navy. I think you might have a chance to operate it. If you can''t, try it!" "Well! Then I will see if I can find a suitable candidate. By the way, why did I have to accept the cigar handed over by General Crook just now! You know I don''t smoke!" Recalling just now that Colonel Parisi reminded himself twice with his foot to take the cigar handed out by General Crook, he is still a little confused, wondering if there is anything special about it. After hearing Fang Lang''s question, Colonel Parisi smiled mysteriously and said: "Actually, this is a rumor I heard from the Brazilian Navy Department. It is said that General Crook likes smoking cigars very much. Whenever he meets a naval officer whom he admires very much and is about to be promoted, he will invite him to smoke cigars together. If, after the officer takes his cigar and shows the same interest, he will regard you as a companion. Otherwise, the officer will soon be marginalized. " Fang Lang never expected that there would be such a way to play. But I dont smoke cigars myself! I didn''t ignite the whole process just now, I don''t know if I will be blacklisted! "Ah! Is it like this? Then it will be okay if I didn''t smoke just now?" "I''m not very clear about this, it''s just a rumor. Since you took the cigar, it shouldn''t be a big problem. Have you never smoked it? As far as I know, under the influence of General Crook, smoking cigars is very popular in the Brazilian Navy. Maybe you also need to learn this communication skill. " Could this be the reason why the legendary Chu king was so thin and starved to death in the palace? It seems that if I want to integrate into the circle of the navy, I also want to learn how to smoke cigars! Fang Lang never smoked in his second life. It''s not that he hasn''t smoked before, but he doesn''t know why he doesn''t have a cigarette addiction. Maybe it''s because he doesn''t smoke enough. He also knows that smoking is not good, so he didn''t continue to smoke. Actually, Fang Lang likes the smell of cigars very much. It is said that smoking cigars is not only overwhelming the lungs, but also has to expel the smoke quickly. Carefully recall the aroma left in the mouth, throat and even the nasal cavity. If necessary, you can take a breath of clean air and feel the aroma of the cigar even more. Thinking of this, Fang Lang shook his head helplessly. He never imagined that one day he would learn a bad habit in order to integrate into a group. "Okay! It seems that I really need to develop a hobby for myself! You have to seriously consider the matter of forming a fishing fleet I told you! I am serious about this matter! Our family will soon build a shipyard in Brazil with Universal Corporation. At that time, we will directly manufacture several advanced fishing boats and go to the depths of the Atlantic Ocean to make a fortune! " Parisi laughed loudly after hearing this: "You are really good at calculating, I, a guy who is about to retire, have been targeted by you." In fact, in Parisi''s heart, he is still very grateful to Fang Lang, at least he has a feeling of being needed. That means he''s not useless anymore. Fang Lang also laughed and walked towards his car, ready to start his pre-war preparations. He dared to open the car door, remembered another thing, and returned to Colonel Parisi''s side and said: "Colonel Parisi has something I want to ask you for a favor, I wonder if it is possible?" Colonel Parisi didn''t care too much, and said with a smile: "You are the one who is going to be my boss, if you have anything to say, just say it," Obviously, this is to tell Fang Lang that he agreed to his invitation and plans to set up a fishing company after returning to China. Fang Lang was more relieved when he heard his answer. Since he had promised himself to set up a fishing company with him in the future, he would not deceive himself about many things. "Because my time in the Brazilian Navy is too short, and the speed of promotion is too fast. This will obviously make the foundation unstable, so I want you, an old navy, to help write a power distribution of the entire navy. How many small groups are there in total, and those people belong to the same small group. Let me get acquainted with our team and avoid unnecessary mistakes. " Fang Lang''s request made Parisi stunned for a moment, unexpectedly having such an idea. After pondering for a while, he said: "I really need to investigate this carefully, because some people''s alignment is not obvious. I can''t guarantee it will be accurate." Fang Lang laughed, gave Parisi a hug and said: "It doesn''t need to be 100% accurate, at least let me have a general understanding." Parisi also smiled and said: "No problem, it will be handed over to you when you come back." (end of this chapter) Chapter 95: Arrive in Okinawa Chapter 95 Arrival in Okinawa After five days of preparation, the Brazilian squadron headed to the Pacific battlefield finally set off. The fleet that set off this time included the Fletcher-class destroyer Howes, the captured German submarine Hope, and two Brazilian Navy supply ships. Fang Lang''s mood at this time is completely different from the last time he set off to **** from the United States. After all, the enemy he is about to face is the Japanese at the end of their strength, and there are not many opportunities to beat the dog in the water! The entire fleet set out from the Mediterranean Sea, passed through the Suez Canal, passed through the Red Sea and entered the Pacific Ocean, and then went straight to Australia and then turned to Saipan Island in the Pacific Ocean. Just when Fang Lang was about to take a break in Saipan, he was directly transferred to the front line of Okinawa by an order from the US military headquarters. By the time Fang Lang found the headquarters of the Fifth Aircraft Carrier Fleet in Okinawa, it was July 5th. As naval officers and soldiers, although the long-distance voyage is really tiring, but fortunately, the journey is far away. But there is no need to cross the Japanese-occupied area alone, so it is not particularly hard. But the new Marines have had enough. Although Duarte''s first precondition for selecting Marines is to be able to swim. There is no necessary connection between being able to swim and being seasick or not! Therefore, many marines have gotten used to spitting. When everyone saw Okinawa, they were more excited than when they defeated the Germans. It could be regarded as seeing land. Fang Lang looked at the messy Okinawa harbor full of warships, and soon under the guidance of the harbor responder, Fang Lang, who had parked the warship, walked off the House first! Because, he must first find the report from the headquarters of the Fifth Aircraft Carrier Fleet before he can be regarded as officially joining the US military''s battle sequence and receiving the US military''s logistical supplies. Fortunately, he has already contacted the Fifth Aircraft Carrier Fleet, and there is a jeep waiting at the pier. Fang Lang bumped all the way in the jeep, passed through several construction sites, and finally came to a well-preserved building with seven turns and eight turns. Under the guidance of the officer who greeted him, he came to the commander''s office. When Fang Lang walked into the office and saw the robust middle-aged man sitting behind the desk, Fang Lang was taken aback. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a major general of the yellow race, which made Fang Lang directly understand the identity of the opponent. After all, the entire yellow generals in the United States can be regarded as rare. "Reporting officer, Captain Fang Lang of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, was ordered to lead the warship to report." Clark looked up and saw the young man in front of him who was younger than his son. He couldn''t believe that this was the expeditionary soldier who saved his son''s life on the Italian battlefield. How long has it been since this kid has become a naval captain, is Brazil''s military rank such a joke? However, the young man in front of him was his son''s savior. Moreover, it can be seen from his standard military posture that he is an excellent soldier. In addition, everyone is of the yellow race, and when they meet in this army full of whites, they will naturally feel a sense of intimacy. After smiling and waving his hand to signal the officer who led Fang Lang in to go out, General Clark stood up and stretched out his right hand with a smile. "Fang, I finally met you. You are welcome, come, sit here!" Said and pointed to the chair in front of the desk. "Don''t be so polite, you are John''s savior and our family''s savior. I''m really sorry, Okinawa has just been captured by us. So, the conditions are relatively simple, I hope you don''t mind. On behalf of the U.S. government, I would like to extend a warm welcome to this journey across thousands of miles to help the war. Originally, John was going to pick you up, but he is still at sea from Guam. " Fang Lang finally felt relieved when he saw General Clark''s enthusiastic attitude. After sitting down, he didn''t dare to really relax, so he hurriedly said: "General Clark, you are too polite. I am very sorry that we came late and hurried all the way, but we still didn''t catch up to participate in this battle." Clark waved his hand and said indifferently: "What does this have to do with you? It''s these politicians who procrastinated and dragged their heads around to delay the time. How can you blame you! You are not too late now! There are still a lot of opportunities to play in the future, don''t in a hurry. Let''s settle down first and take a rest. There shouldn''t be any new combat missions recently. After all, in the battle just now, both we and the Japanese suffered heavy losses, and it takes time to lick their wounds and recover their strength. " Of course Fang Lang knows the current situation in the United States and Japan. However, since Fang Lang came here from a long distance, he didn''t come for vacation. He didn''t take advantage of the Japanese being injured. Wouldn''t it be better to wait for the Japanese to surrender and then hold a parade? This is inconsistent with Fang Lang''s goal, so Fang Lang took the initiative to ask Ying to say: "General Clark, I know that the Japanese must have suffered heavy losses this time. The U.S. Navy has suffered heavy casualties after months of hard fighting and urgently needs to rest. Although my team only has two warships, we did not participate in the battle except to hurry, and we are still a new force. So, I hope you can give us a chance to kill the enemy. " Although John had already told his father, Fang Lang really wanted to come and fight the Japanese. However, I originally thought that Fang Lang would be a greedy person who was afraid of death when he was transferred to the Naval Logistics Department through John''s relationship. As a result, I didn''t expect this guy''s fighting enthusiasm to be so high, and Fang Lang couldn''t help but look even more admiringly. With a satisfied smile unconsciously on his face, he said: "Haha Fang, there are so many opportunities to kill the enemy. You are not tired and your soldiers are also tired! You have come from a long way, I can''t even give you a rest time, just send you to the battlefield directly! In this way, I will allocate a camp for you first, and you will take a brief rest first. Wait for two days, we replenished the supplies and went to the Japanese traffic line, how about making him turn upside down. " Fang Lang naturally has no objection to General Clark''s arrangement. As long as he can kill the Japanese, Fang Lang will follow any mission. What''s more, the task of attacking the devil''s supply line is simply not too easy. "Okay, general, then we will follow your instructions and rest for two days. On May 8th, after the supply is completed, we will immediately set off to the enemy''s supply line to disrupt him." Seeing that Fang Lang could follow his instructions, Clark was relieved. After all, the opponent is an Allied officer, not the US Navy. Moreover, he is also his son''s savior. If the other party relies on this relationship and refuses to obey orders, Clark will be in a difficult situation. "That''s right! John has been thinking about you for a long time. The day after tomorrow, he will arrive in Okinawa, and you should have a good get-together. Then we will have a meal together. Unfortunately, there are no restaurants open in Okinawa now, otherwise we must invite You have a big meal." General Clark''s words immediately made Fang Lang feel that the relationship between the two was much closer, and he couldn''t help but relax, and said with a smile: "Yes! John and I haven''t seen each other for a long time. He left in a hurry at that time, and I don''t know if his leg is healed!" Hearing that Fang Lang was concerned about John''s leg injury, General Clark smiled and said: "Don''t worry! His leg injury has healed long ago. He has been clamoring to be transferred to the combat unit to show his strength like you! Unfortunately, his mother gave a death order. If he goes to the battlefield, he will divorce me. So, I have no choice but to feel wronged that he will continue to stay in the logistics post until he retires. Ha ha." Fang Lang could imagine how aggrieved John would be because he couldn''t show his ability in the navy. But as a good brother, Fang Lang can only give him sympathetic eyes and take good care of him. By the way, you can put on a good show in front of him, otherwise it seems a little sorry for yourself to go all the way! In my heart, I am happy to think about it. "Ah! Poor John, let me kill a few more damned Japs for him!" Looking at the smile in the corner of Fang Lang''s eyes, General Clark also knew what the young man in front of him was thinking, after all, who hasn''t been young yet! From here, General Clark can also see that Fang Lang does treat John as a friend. After the two of them started the topic around John, the strangeness between the two also quickly disappeared, without the previous formula. Although, Fang Lang didn''t know if General Clark did it on purpose. However, Fang Lang is also happy to see it succeed. General Clark said casually after seeing Fang Lang relax: "If John sees your current military rank, he will probably be very sad! I heard that the Brazilian Navy has set up a special naval fleet for you. It seems that you have a great influence in the Brazilian Navy!" (end of this chapter) Chapter 96: test Chapter 96 Exploration Looking at what General Clark said seemingly casually, Fang Lang couldn''t help screaming in his heart. It seemed that he wanted to test the idea of ????the Brazilian Navy! But Fang Lang didn''t mind revealing the plan of the Brazilian Navy. Because this plan is simply public. He believes that the U.S. military must have known it long ago. So Fang Lang remained calm and said casually: "Hi! In the words of our Chinese people, I am just a fake tiger. Because John introduced Brigadier General Jackson to me. How helpful Brigadier Jackson is to me at work. Therefore, the Brazilian Expeditionary Force believed that I had an American background, so I was able to get to where I am today. This is all thanks to John, or it is actually all thanks to you. " Clark laughed loudly when he heard Fang Lang''s straightforward words: "I''m even embarrassed to hear you say that. Could it be that I was also responsible for your sinking of the German submarine in the Atlantic Ocean! These are all your real achievements! It shows that you have achieved today''s achievements by relying on your own true ability. I wasn''t as good as you when I was your age. I believe that you will have greater achievements in the future. " Isnt it said that Americans are straight? This tall hat is wearing a suit, so it''s not like digging a hole for me to jump in! Although Fang Lang had a smile on his face, he couldn''t help but start beating in his heart. "Hi! From what you said, without the powerful warships supported by the United States, I would not have achieved my results. Moreover, I am also lucky, and I have encountered them all." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Clark just laughed and didn''t refute, but said directly: "I heard that your Brazilian Navy wants to build an aircraft carrier formation. This is a big deal! If it is established, then you will be the strongest naval force in South America." So here you are waiting for me! Is this trying to test my attitude towards this matter? It''s no secret, the Brazilian Navy is pretty much aware of the plan. Isn''t he ordered to go to the U.S. Navy to learn the command of the aircraft carrier fleet? I was worried that I didn''t know how to speak! Now that you have taken the initiative to ask, then I will reluctantly hit the snake with the stick! "What a big deal! We have also seen the direction of future naval warfare. In the future, if the navy of any country does not have an aircraft carrier to support it, it will be embarrassed to say that it also has a navy. Speaking of which, Uncle Clark, I really want to compete for the position of commander of Brazil''s first aircraft carrier fleet. I wonder if I can follow you to learn the knowledge of commanding an aircraft carrier fleet in advance! " Fang Lang''s words obviously took Clark by surprise, and he didn''t expect to talk about himself while chatting. However, looking at Fang Lang''s expectant expression, thinking about his relationship with him, it seems that it is not suitable to refuse! Although, throughout World War II, the United States built a total of 27 large aircraft carriers, 11 light aircraft carriers, and 117 **** aircraft carriers, for a total of 155 aircraft carriers! Although the aircraft carrier during World War II is very different from the aircraft carrier of later generations, it does not have much technical content, and even many so-called **** aircraft carriers are simply refitted from large freighters. However, it does not mean that the US government will agree that Latin American countries also have their own aircraft carrier fleets. This is our own back garden. Everyone only needs to provide us with raw materials and a market for product sales. Both diplomacy and military affairs must be under my command, and I will not allow you to become stronger. This is why although Brazil has its own aircraft carrier in later generations, it buys second-hand goods from the United Kingdom and France instead of American second-hand goods. It''s not that Brazil doesn''t want to buy American goods, but that the United States doesn''t sell to Brazil. A navy without an aircraft carrier is basically an offshore defense fleet, and there is no way to go to Deep Blue. As a later generation, Fang Lang has a very thorough understanding of the American mind. Therefore, he has completely different ideas from most Brazilian naval officers now. Everyone thinks that Americans are good teachers and friends. Only Fang Lang knows that this good teacher and good friend in everyone''s eyes, every candy he gives is poisonous. So, be careful when accepting gifts. Fang Lang, the pro-American faction in everyone''s eyes, is actually anti-American in his heart. All he wants is to use the United States, and he never thought of falling to the United States. Of course, you can just know these things yourself, why tell others! General Clark met Fang Lang''s expectant eyes, and after a flicker in his eyes, he had to smile and said: "Haha Fang, it would be great if all young people could learn as much as you do! I absolutely support your idea. Let''s do it! You still have to command your own fleet to fight now, so you must not leave your post casually. When the war is over, I recommend you to go to our American Higher Naval Academy for advanced studies. After you finish your studies, come to my fleet to follow me study. " Your sister''s old fox, I am your son''s savior. What you said sounds so nice, and I will go to your fleet to study after I finish my studies. Wait until I finish studying. You are about to retire! Also go to your fleet to learn a fart! Just study hard at school, and let you Yankees brainwash you, what a fart! You can''t let you get away so easily, Fang Lang said as if he didn''t hear anything: "Hi! Uncle Clark, don''t embarrass me. I''m not that kind of material for reading. I get sleepy when I see textbooks. If you go to school to study, you might as well kill me. You can rest assured that since I was appointed as the commander of the First Fleet, I have begun to train my deputy. It doesn''t really matter whether my warship has me or not. I can completely hand over the warship to them to command, and then wholeheartedly follow you to learn the command of the aircraft carrier formation for a period of time. May I? " Clark obviously didn''t expect the young man in front of him to be so difficult, and he was a bit embarrassed to step down. Just as he was about to continue his refusal, he heard a knock on the office door. He was overjoyed, and quickly said with a solemn expression: "Come in!" It was an American military officer who pushed the door in. Before entering the office, Fang Lang saw him at the desk outside the door. He should be General Clark''s adjutant. The officer smiled apologetically at Fang Lang and then said to General Clark: "General, it''s time for the meeting, and everyone is waiting for you. Do you need to postpone the meeting?" Hearing the adjutant''s words, Clark raised his eyebrows and was delighted. But with an annoyed expression on his face, he patted his forehead, turned his head and said to Fang Lang: "Oh! I''m really sorry. Fang, I almost forgot, I have another meeting to attend here. Let''s do this! Let''s talk here first. I''ll let the adjutant go back with you to arrange your camp, and you should take a good rest first. After John comes to Okinawa the day after tomorrow, we will have a good chat when we have dinner together. " Fang Lang couldn''t help but secretly said it was a pity. Although, he knew that even if he studied with General Clark, he would not have the opportunity to experience large-scale naval battles. However, if you can learn about the command system, logistics support, communication methods and other things of the US aircraft carrier fleet, it is also a very rare opportunity, all of which have been tested in actual combat. I don''t know if there is such a coincidence, but it is impossible for Fang Lang to continue stalking. He could only stand up and say: "Then Uncle Clark, you are busy first! I will go back and arrange the affairs of the fleet. We will have a good chat after John comes back. I will not bother you today!" General Clark also said politely: "Hey! I can''t help myself! This battle also hurt our muscles and bones. Therefore, we have been very busy with work recently. Fang, don''t mind, when John arrives, I will definitely find time to have a good chat with you . Steve, you personally take Colonel Fang to coordinate the camp. You must choose a good place. Inform the logistics department to prioritize the replenishment of combat supplies to our allies, who want to go into battle as soon as possible. We must do our best to do a good job in logistics support. Understand? " Fang Lang didn''t know if there was something in the explanations of General Clark and his adjutant. He also deliberately called General Clark uncle in front of the adjutant, and pointed out John''s relationship, just to make the adjutant believe that he had a good personal relationship with General Clark''s family. Although this may not necessarily yield any substantial benefits, Fang Lang believes that at least this will not cause trouble. I saw that the adjutant named Steve straightened his face, stood at attention and saluted and replied loudly: "Yes, Your Excellency General." Thanks to the book friends Fantastic Planet, Blacksmith A Yan, and Sad Resound for the rewards of several book friends, and the monthly tickets and recommendation tickets of all book friends. Your support is the motivation for me to continue writing. Thank you everyone. (end of this chapter) Chapter 97: Reminiscing about the old days Chapter 97 Reminiscing about the past General Clark''s adjutant obviously saw that the relationship between Fang Lang and General Clark was unusual. Therefore, the arrangements for the Brazilian Expeditionary Force are very dedicated. Although the military camp is just a temporary military camp built with simple tents, the same is true for the entire US military camp now. Fang Lang couldn''t find any faults either. Fang Lang understands the soldiers'' eagerness to rest, especially the soldiers of the Marine Corps. Therefore, the soldiers of the Marine Corps moved in immediately after the camp was confirmed. Because Fang Lang''s Marine Corps is a completely newly formed unit, it has not yet received complete running-in training. Now that he has come to the base camp of the US Marine Corps, Fang Lang will not miss this opportunity to learn. Directly explained the situation to General Clark''s adjutant, and expressed the hope that the most elite Marines in the United States could be arranged to help train real Marines. There is no need to report this small request to General Clark. The marines on the island have been resting for a few days, and they are panicking with nothing to do, causing trouble everywhere with nowhere to vent their energy. Now that a group of rookies have come to abuse them, it is simply not appropriate. In the end, I only wanted to borrow a team of more than ten instructors, but in the end, there were more than one hundred American soldiers who signed up eagerly. What else is there to say, of course Fang Lang agrees with both hands! As for the consumption of training, Fang Lang doesn''t have to worry about it at all. The adjutant just told the logistics department that Fang Lang and John are very familiar. The door of the logistics warehouse is completely opened to the Marine Corps. Anyway, it is the supplies of the US government, and it is not the US soldiers themselves. Who would feel distressed? Besides, this is not a waste, just report it to the Allied Forces for training. With such a large-scale war consumption, who would care about such a small loss! Fang Lang directly ordered Duarte to seize this rare opportunity and learn real combat skills from American soldiers. And use the materials of the US military to complete the training of their own soldiers. I can only give him forty days of training time. After forty days, Fang Lang will see the well-trained Marine Corps. He even directly stated that he could accept a 5% loss of personnel. It is equivalent to directly telling Duarte that he has given 25 death quotas. This made Duarte''s eyes change, obviously he did not expect Fang Lang''s request to be so strict. Fang Lang even directly told the major officer of the U.S. Marine Corps who came to organize the training that as long as he could not die in training, he would practice to death. The promised 40-day training subsidy for each instructor is 100 U.S. dollars per person, and the major has 500 U.S. dollars in subsidy. If it can reach the average combat power of the US Marine Corps, an additional 20% reward will be added, and if it exceeds the level of the US Marine Corps, an additional 20% will be added. This news made the instructors of the US Marine Corps crazy. The Brazilian Marine Corps ushered in their **** month, and all the Marines of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force turned pale when talking about their experience this month. Of course, Fang Lang would not deliberately torture these soldiers. He hired a five-member medical team with a high salary to ensure the health of the soldiers. Promise that if the soldiers meet the training requirements, each will receive Fang Lang''s personal reward of 100 US dollars, and the reward for exceeding the level of the American instructor will increase by 50%. If the team''s performance does not meet the requirements, all rewards will be cancelled. This made the eyes of the fighters who had just been transferred to work under Fang Lang and had just received Fang Lang''s personal allowance for the first time, all of them said that they were bound to get this bonus. After arranging the affairs of the Marine Corps, Fang Lang finally waited for John on the afternoon of July 7th. I don''t know if General Clark hid from Fang Lang on purpose, so he broke his promise and didn''t show up with John. When Fang Lang saw John who was visiting at the gate of the camp, the two of them had a big fight. After punching each other, they hugged each other tightly. "Fang, you seem to have lost weight! Is it because the Italian girls are too enthusiastic! You should also pay attention to restraint." "Hi! The Lilith you know is indeed a gentle and good girl, do you know that I left her here to see how determined you are?" "You bastard, will you die if you don''t show off Lilith in front of me?" "Haha. Brother, don''t be sad, I will ask Lilith to introduce you to some hot Italian girls. However, you haven''t seen it for a while, there is some horizontal growth trend! Are you sure you can still handle it girls ?" "Do you want to compare!" "Forget it, as a good brother, I''m afraid you will feel inferior. Haha." After joking, Fang Lang and John walked into Fang Lang''s tent together shoulder to shoulder. As soon as he sat down, John turned to Fang Lang to express his apology. "Fang, my father asked me to apologize to you. He is really busy with military affairs and can''t leave. So." Fang Lang waved his hand indifferently and interrupted John''s words. "What are you talking about! John, we are good brothers, and your father is my elder. There is no reason for the elders to visit the younger generation. Don''t worry! I don''t mind. It''s better for us to chat without your father, isn''t it? " Actually, from the time Fang Lang left General Clark''s office, Fang Lang already knew that he had no chance to follow General Clark to learn the experience of commanding the US aircraft carrier fleet. Therefore, he has already aimed at England or France as his learning goal. As an adult, he wouldn''t do anything because General Clark didn''t want to teach him carrier command experience. After all, the U.S. military is not his own, and many things are beyond his control, which is determined by his own position. However, Fang Lang believes that General Clark rejected Fang Lang''s first request, so the next time Fang Lang makes another request that is not so difficult, General Clark will definitely consider it carefully. Even if Fang Lang can''t get the benefits of the American army from General Clark, he will definitely get benefits in business. For example, Fang Lang wouldn''t be able to handle the penicillin production line without this relationship, right? "Fang, you are so right. I don''t like to meet with my father either, it''s really aggrieved. It''s not as comfortable as we are now." After speaking, he reached out to fist bump Fang Lang. Fang Lang also smiled and punched him as soon as he touched him. "Young people have a common topic! Why did I hear your father say that you also want to join the combat army?" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, John''s originally smiling face immediately became depressed. "Hi! Don''t mention it, I''m almost suffocated. After all, I also came from the combat unit, but now I go to the navy to manage the logistics and don''t even have the chance to see the enemy. You think I''m having fun. How can you live so chicly like you? You see, when we met, I was a major and you were a sergeant. Now I am a lieutenant colonel and you are already a colonel. I''ve heard about your brilliant record, it''s exciting to think about it. Shouldn''t men be just like you? " "Haha. Brother, I heard from your father that if you join the combat army, your mother will divorce your father! For the integrity of your family, forget it!" "Oh! I''m so pitiful, and you still laugh at me. Are you still a good brother!" "Actually, according to my opinion! Being a logistics officer is very cool! Especially the logistics officer of the US military, you have to have many suppliers to give you benefits. But you seem to be short of these, and this seems to be of no use to you." "Don''t mention it, how can I not be short? I want to consume! I want to pick up girls! But, under my father''s nose, I don''t dare to take advantage at all, for fear of having a bad influence on my father. If I had known earlier, I shouldn''t have listened to you and come to work under my father''s command." "From this point of view, you seem to be really pitiful!" "Hi! Don''t talk about me, I heard from the brothers below today that the Marine Corps under your boy seems to be a bit miserable!" "What''s the matter, I''m here to improve their combat effectiveness. You have also participated in the training of the expeditionary army. The combat effectiveness of the Brazilian army is really hard to describe. Otherwise, you Americans would not insist on training for two years before you dare to put us on the battlefield. Now that they are under my command, of course I have to be stricter! The Japanese are the stones in the latrine, smelly and hard. If I don''t train them into iron fists, I dare not let them go to the battlefield! " "Yes! We have all stayed on the European battlefield, whether it is the Germans or the Italians, but we are not as desperate as the Japanese. By the way, when I say this, I want to remind you! The Asian battlefield is different from the European battlefield. These dwarfs will not surrender easily, and even often fake surrender. I think you must be careful. " In this way, Fang Lang and John had a long conversation. As Fang Lang''s first friend after waking up, the two of them had a fateful friendship. So, Fang Lang also regarded John as a true friend. Dinner is for two people, which can be regarded as wine. When you meet a bosom friend, there are less than a thousand cups, and they are all alone and drunk. (end of this chapter) Chapter 98: Find the enemy Chapter 98 Finding the Enemy Waiting for Fang Lang to board the House early the next morning, his head was still groggy when he left Okinawa. Fortunately, the Okinawa waters are now the territory of the Allied Forces, and the Japanese are not just what he wants to meet. Actually, the straight-line distance between Okinawa Island and Hangzhou Bay is only about 900 kilometers. If the Houses maximum speed of 35 knots goes directly to Hangzhou Bay, it will take less than 20 hours to reach Hangzhou Bay. Of course, a ship can''t always be traveling at top speed. Therefore, the House has been sailing westward at a speed of twenty knots. Fang Lang''s goal is not the mainland, because if he gets too close to the land, he will enter the attack range of the Japanese aviation. Although fuel is in short supply in Japan now, there are still fuel reserves in the country. The Japanese are now trying to find ways to transport strategic materials such as fuel to Japan. And these transport ships are the targets of Fang Lang''s attack. It''s not that Fang Lang doesn''t want to directly attack the Japanese mainland, but if he sails a boat to attack Japan directly by himself, he will basically end up in the same end as Don Quixote. Wars are not street fights, and you can''t be reckless. Fang Lang ordered Hope to take the lead in cruising in the middle of the route from Shanghai to Nagasaki. I am looking for ships that may travel from Taiwan Island to Japan in the East China Sea. I dont know if the Japanese navy was really laid down. For three days, the two warships found nothing. This annoyed Fang Lang very much. The secret channel came late, and it seemed that Little Japan was really **** up. After asking for instructions from the Fifth Aircraft Carrier Fleet, Fang Lang began to shift targets. The Nozomi was ordered to go directly to the Korean Strait and attack ships traveling between North Korea and Japan near Tsushima Island. Fang Lang himself followed the House and began to test the direction of Shanghai, wanting to test whether the Japanese Army Aviation would send military planes to attack him for his warship. Because the Fletcher-class destroyer''s air-to-air radar has a maximum detection range of 120 kilometers. Therefore, on July 12, Fang Lang directly led the House into a distance of less than 100 nautical miles from Shanghai. But not to mention Japanese planes, not even a Japanese ship. This made Fang Lang very annoyed. I came all the way to fight with you, but you didn''t show up, which made me very embarrassed. On July 13, Fang Lang''s House simply broke into a distance of about 50 kilometers from Shanghai in order to attract enemies to attack at close range. But Fang Lang did not dare to enter within a distance of 50 kilometers, because this is the longest range of the Japanese Type 90 240mm heavy cannon. If Japan''s heavy artillery hits it, it will not be worth the loss. After all, Shanghai is not Japan, and it is impossible for Fang Lang to attack Shanghai. The firepower of the destroyer Fang Lang couldn''t reach the Japanese. The result was unexpected. The Japanese seemed to be blind, indifferent to the approach of the House. Just when Fang Lang was yelling at the Japanese on the House. The Nozomi received good news from the Korean Strait and sank a transport ship bound for Japan from North Korea. And got in touch with the American submarine that was carrying out the blockade mission in the Korean Strait, and played the wolf pack tactics invented by the Germans. This hurt Fang Lang very much. For the first time, he wanted to own an aircraft carrier in his heart, so that the embarrassing situation like now would not happen. Similarly, Fang Lang also saw the weakness of the Japanese from this situation. Fang Lang never imagined that the Japanese would let the House directly approach such a close distance and remain indifferent. Fang Lang simply stopped doing nothing and started to blockade the outer seas of Shanghai. He didn''t believe that the Japanese really didn''t run out. Just when Fang Lang punched cotton and was furious that he could not find the enemy, Universal Steel and Universal Shipbuilding in the United States finally completed the acquisition and integration work. Owns steel companies and shipyards across the United States, Britain, Germany, and Italy. Although, the size of steel mills and shipyards in each country is not large. Even the factories in the United States are research institutes, but it cannot be denied that the two companies have formally qualified to enter the steel and shipbuilding markets. The company''s first key task after the integration is to officially start joint venture negotiations with the Brazilian Fangyuan Group, planning to invest in the establishment of a steel plant and a shipyard in Sao Paulo, Brazil. This project has been highly valued by the Brazilian government, the Brazilian military, and the Sao Paulo city government. For the first time, the Brazilian Fangyuan Group has appeared in the eyes of Brazilian politicians and Brazilian people. The Brazilian Navy Department and the Brazilian Expeditionary Force even directly stepped forward as the Fangyuan Group platform. Let this newly established company in Brazil become a household name in a day and hang on the headlines of major newspapers in Brazil. It even shocked the treacherous Brazilian political arena. Don''t think that the author''s description is exaggerated. The reason why Brazil became the only country in South America to send troops to participate in the European War. It is because in the summer of 1940, the Brazilian government simultaneously launched negotiations with the United States and Germany in order to build the earliest modern large-scale steel plant. In the end, the U.S. government reached an agreement with Brazilian President Vargas to provide an interest-free loan of 10 million U.S. dollars for Brazil to build a steel plant in Rancho Volta. marks Brazil officially abandoning Germany and joining the US camp. From this we can see how much influence a modern steel plant will have on the Brazilian government. In fact, the so-called joint venture negotiations seem to outsiders to have undergone repeated negotiations, and even attracted large domestic capital in Brazil to participate in a share. Unfortunately, they don''t know that all this is just a play. Therefore, the big capital in Brazil is doomed to get nothing. On July 13th, Fangyuan Group officially announced the establishment of a joint venture company and started investment negotiations with the government. It plans to invest 20 million US dollars to establish a steel factory and a shipyard in Brazil. Fang Lang who received the news was naturally very happy, and it could be regarded as dispelling the depressed mood he had been in for several days. In the early morning of July 14, the radar of the House detected a ship approaching the House. Fang Lang thought that the Japanese were finally going to fight, and quickly ordered the House to turn. But when the other party entered the visual range of the lookout post, they discovered that it was a wooden fishing boat. This made the crew of the House decide to be bored, thinking that the Japanese were attacking with wooden fishing boats. Just about to aim at the opponent and kill him with a single shot, Fang Lang suddenly remembered that the sixth sense didn''t seem to feel hostility this time! Instead, he ordered the boatswain to drive the traffic boat with ten soldiers to check the situation. Don''t wait until the fishermen are guilty. Soon the boatswain brought back two people dressed like fishermen, and reported to Fang Lang that they were intelligence personnel of the national army, hoping to meet the Allied commander. Fang Lang looked at the two of them carefully for a while and then said: "What are you doing! What are you doing here!" When the two saw the soldiers who brought them over, among them were a few yellow men and a black man, they felt their hearts beat. When I approached and saw the military flag on this warship, I had never seen it before, and I was wondering! Hearing a question in Chinese from an officer on the opposite side, I was even more taken aback. The older man, who looked about fifty years old, took the initiative to say: "Sir, are you an allied army?" Listening to the other party''s voice is obviously much younger! This made Fang Lang couldn''t help but look at the man opposite him more carefully. He turned his head and asked the boatswain in a low voice: "Have you been searched?" I thought to myself, don''t wait for two Japanese spies to assassinate me at close range, it would be embarrassing. The bosun nodded. Fang Lang replied: "We are warships of the Confederate States, who are you?" Hearing Fang Lang''s answer, the two were obviously relieved. The man who took the initiative to speak continued: "Sir, you speak Mandarin really well. My name is Zhong Ze, and I am a major intelligence officer at the Shanghai Station of the Military Intelligence Bureau of the Nationalist Government. Next to me is my translator Qiu Yuyi. Nice to meet you." These two can be regarded as the first batch of real fellow countrymen that Fang Lang met after his rebirth. However, Fang Lang is very aware of the power of the Japanese intelligence agencies, and he cannot easily trust them. Don''t wait to be used by the Japanese, you will be in big trouble. "Do you have evidence?" Zhong Ze glanced at the soldiers with guns on guard all around, and pointed to the position of his belt with his finger. Fang Lang understood what he meant, and just shook his head without saying a word, and a soldier stepped forward, fumbled along the position of the man''s finger, and soon touched a hard object, took it out and checked it, Only then handed it to Fang Lang. After a closer look, it turned out to be an identity document, roughly meaning that the national army sent two personnel from the Military Intelligence Bureau to board the ship to negotiate a joint attack on the Japanese army. I hereby certify it. (end of this chapter) Chapter 99: intelligence officer Chapter 99 Intelligence Officer To be honest, from Fang Lang''s point of view, this certification document is too rough, and it is impossible to judge its authenticity. It is very easy for the Japanese to obtain such a document. Seeing the two looking at him nervously, Fang Lang said directly in Portuguese: "Catch them all." The two obviously don''t understand Portuguese, but the Brazilian soldiers all speak Portuguese, so we wait for the two to react. He was caught by a group of soldiers. The two were so frightened that they shouted again and again: "Sir, is there some misunderstanding! We are allies! Is there some misunderstanding!" It''s a pity that Fang Lang ignored them, but directly ordered the boatswain: "Find a room, strip them naked, and check them carefully. Focus on checking whether their underwear is Japanese loincloths, and whether there are traces of clogs on their feet. And whether they have wounds on their bodies, whether there are traces of torture or torture. Deputy Captain Reina, please contact the Okinawa base and ask them to verify the identities of the two with the Nationalist Government. " Reiner directly took the order and left, but the boatswain said a little awkwardly: "Sir, what are these loincloths and clogs you are talking about!" Fang Lang knew that the Brazilians didn''t have much contact with the Japanese now, so it''s normal not to know these, so he explained it to him in detail, and told him what kind of traces would be left, and the bosun suddenly realized leave. Looking at the wooden fishing boats gradually moving away on the sea in the distance, Fang Lang couldn''t help but start to think, which part of these people belonged to? If it is really from the military command, then what is the purpose of their coming? If not the military command, then what kind of people are they? If they are Japanese, what is their purpose? Soon, the bosun came to report the inspection results to Fang Lang. "Sir, the features you mentioned are not found on the two of them, and there are no traces of torture. The older one has two stab wounds on his body, but none of them are fatal. It looks like it was caused by a street fight. The young man had a penetrating wound on his right chest, and it would be his fate to survive. However, I feel that the two of them look a bit strange. They both look older in appearance, but their bodies don''t look that old. " Fang Lang smiled after hearing this. This is obviously a disguise! Didn''t expect this kind of technology to exist now. I couldn''t help but look forward to it. "That''s because they put on makeup and told them to take off their disguise. I''ll talk to them after we confirm their identities with the Okinawa base." "Yes, sir!" Around noon, Fang Lang received a notification from the Okinawa base to confirm the identity information of the two. When Fang Lang saw the two of them again, they had changed drastically. The elder Zhong Ze''s actual age was at most thirty-six or seventeen years old, while the translator next to him was less than thirty. Looking at the two people in front of him, Fang Lang nodded, pointed to the seat in front of him, and said flatly: "You two, I have just confirmed your identities with your country. I hope you don''t mind the unreasonable behavior just now." The two looked at the young man sitting across from them, and they were a little uncertain about each other''s identity. Zhong Ze took the lead and said: "It''s okay, it''s okay, this is a necessary review process that we can understand." Fang Lang didn''t intend to apologize at first, it''s not that Fang Lang was not excited when he saw the two compatriots. It is more conducive to the communication between the two parties to maintain a certain sense of distance before figuring out the purpose of the other party. "Then please tell me! What is the purpose of the two risking their lives here?" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Zhong Ze hesitated and said: "Sir, I wonder if you can explain your identities." Now that the other party''s identity has been confirmed, Fang Lang certainly will not hide his identity from the other party, and said directly: "We are the Navy of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force of the Allied Powers. I am Colonel Fang Lang of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. I am under the command of the Fifth US Aircraft Carrier Fleet. I am here to carry out the task of blocking the Japanese transportation line." Zhong Ze obviously relaxed now, and an unnatural smirk began to pile up on his face, which made Fang Lang look very awkward. "Hello, sir, since it is the Allied forces, then we are all allies. Thank you very much for the Allies who have traveled thousands of miles to help us kill Little Japan." Seeing that the other party continued to be polite, Fang Lang interrupted rudely: "Okay, your smile is fake, you should put it away! We are allies, and we are compatriots, so you don''t need to try to please. Just tell us what your purpose is for coming here!" To be honest, Fang Lang really hates people who deliberately please foreign devils when they see them. I have never seen you so flattering to your own father, why do you feel that you are a head shorter than foreign devils! Zhong Ze was taken aback for a moment, apparently he didn''t expect Fang Lang to be so direct, and said somewhat uncertainly: "Sir, did you just say that we are compatriots?" "Is it so obvious that you can''t see it? As a major intelligence officer of the military command, you only have such a level. Didn''t you listen carefully when I said the name just now? Or is it that the person next to you is Major Zhong Ze?" Fang Lang''s words stunned both of them. After looking at each other, the young man who had been very calm and silent by the side finally said: "Colonel Fang, you really have sharp eyes!" After speaking, one stood at attention and saluted: "Hello, sir, I am Zhong Ze, Major Intelligence Officer of the Military Command Shanghai Station." The man who always said he was Zhong Ze stood up a little embarrassedly and said: "Hello, sir, I am Qiu Yuyi, intelligence agent of Shanghai Station." Fang Lang said indifferently: "Okay, I don''t care about these, I just want to know the purpose of the two finding us." The real Zhong Ze didn''t talk nonsense, and said directly: "We want to cooperate with your army, and we will provide you with the departure time and route of the Japanese freighter, so that you can directly attack." Fang Lang was taken aback when he heard this. Someone gave him a pillow when he wanted to doze off! After thinking about it, it was a little strange: "If you can get the time when the Japanese freighter leaves the port, you can report it directly to the Allied Forces! There is no need to go to us directly! Besides, I have been looking for a transport ship nearby for a few days and I can''t see what it is. Happening." "Colonel Fang, that''s exactly what I want to say. Since the Allied forces occupied Okinawa, the Japanese have detained all freighters from Shanghai, allowing them to enter but not leaving. We found that the Japanese are very difficult now, and they are very short of fuel. They have concentrated the fuel of all ships on more than 20 ships, and it seems that they are preparing to guarantee the fuel supply of these ships. Moreover, we found that the Japanese garrison in Shanghai was collecting and scraping strategic materials everywhere, including bristles, rubber, tung oil, ore, and even kerosene used by ordinary people. Among them, there are some precious historical relics and gold and silver collected from China. We judge that they want to form a fleet to set off at the same time, and there may even be several warships escorting them. As for why we contacted you directly instead of reporting to headquarters, the reason is simple. This time the Japanese took very strict precautions, and even the porters were Japanese expatriates. We have no chance to get close at all, let alone get an accurate departure time. Now we can only monitor the movement of warships in the distance of the harbor, worrying that if they suddenly leave us and report to the headquarters, it will not be too late to arrange for the fleet to intercept them. " Fang Lang thought to himself, it''s no wonder that he hasn''t even touched a hair for so many days. It turns out that the Japanese are thinking about it. It seems that it is very necessary for me to invite a few boats to hunt! The Japanese want to ship back the things they robbed from China to defend Japan. Isnt this a **** dream? "Can you find a way to determine the exact time of their departure, and I will find a way to coordinate the interception fleet to ensure that they will all be sent to the bottom of the sea, and they will never be shipped back to Japan." Zhong Ze shook his head after hearing Fang Lang''s words, and said with a frustrated face: "We are also doing our best to find out when the devils depart. But they have put the entire port under martial law, and our people can''t get in at all, and those who go in can''t get out." "Don''t they eat or drink anymore? So many ships set off together, they must collect enough food and drinking water! If they can''t get in, have you analyzed the materials they purchased?" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Zhong Ze couldn''t help but glance at Fang Langgao. This kind of thinking is the working thinking of intelligence personnel! Unexpectedly, Colonel Fang in front of him would have such a consciousness. "We have been doing this for a long time, but they have maintained a measure of equal purchases in the past half month. Based on our analysis of their data, we feel that their material purchases are now enough for them It is needed for the voyage. However, they still remain silent." (end of this chapter) Chapter 100: thinking change Chapter 100 Thinking Changes Looking at the military command intelligence officer in front of him, Fang Lang could not believe the professionalism of the other party. After all, China''s military command during World War II was not an ordinary person. Professional things should be left to professional people, and you should think about how to lock them if the Japanese fleet comes out. Which route the other party may take for transportation, will it be escorted by Japanese aircraft all the time. Although the Japanese navy is now disabled, there are still three catties of nails in the broken ship! Fang Lang will not let down his vigilance just because the Japanese are about to surrender. Maybe, the Japanese also want to use this transport fleet to fish! The two people in front of them are indeed not Japanese in terms of height and shape. However, Fang Lang knew very well that the Japanese also had many traitors and running dogs, and Fang Lang could not easily believe their identities. However, Fang Lang had to pay attention to the information they provided. What if it is true? But in his heart, Fang Lang was still more inclined to believe in their identities. Because from the beginning to the end, Fang Lang didn''t feel any malice from them. This is not because Fang Lang is superstitious about his sixth sense, but because his sixth sense has indeed not made any mistakes so far. Thinking about it, Fang Lang suddenly had an idea. Could it be that these little Japanese were already ready to go, just because their sudden appearance disrupted their plans? The U.S. Navy at this time has just experienced the Battle of Okinawa and is resting. Normally, this time should leave a gap for the Japanese to take advantage of. But I just arrived in Okinawa, will the little butterfly who doesn''t need to rest disrupt the Japanese plan? In the past few days, I have approached step by step, how will the Japanese react? Fang Lang began to think differently. If he were a Japanese commander, he would find a destroyer tentatively approaching Shanghai step by step. Do you think your plan has been exposed. Exposed or not exposed, what measures should I take to deal with it. Slowly, Fang Lang had a feeling in his heart that the Japanese were either waiting for him to leave, or they were thinking about **** him with one blow. Slowly, Fang Lang''s mind gradually became clear. A smile began to emerge from the corner of his mouth, he believed that the Japanese must have been impatient. It is daytime now, and Fang Lang is not worried, because the daytime is dominated by the U.S. Air Force, and U.S. military planes can arrive in two hours from Okinawa. After thinking for a long time, Fang Lang slapped his forehead and cursed himself as an idiot. It seems that I am used to being poor, I have never lived a prosperous life, I do not have an air force, and my thinking is limited. However, there is now a rich man behind him, the so-called reduction of ten meetings with one force. Things are not so complicated, now I am the one taking the initiative! Thinking of this, Fang Lang didn''t hesitate anymore, and said to Zhong Ze and the two: "Damn! You guys are really serious, since you already know where the little devil''s boat is, when do you care when he sets off? Isn''t a parked boat easier to blow up than a moving one?" Regardless of their reactions, they went directly to the bridge and sent the communication to General Clark''s office. "General Clark, I''m Fang Lang. I''m in Shanghai. I just got accurate information. The Japanese army gathered a large number of transport ships at the port of Shanghai and concentrated the oil on more than 20 ships. They are going to send a batch tonight. The strategic materials are being shipped to Japan. I would like to apply to dispatch the plane now to leave these ships and materials in Shanghai." "Is the message accurate?" "This news was provided by the intelligence personnel of the national army. However, based on the analysis of the situation I have encountered in the past few days, this news should be true." "Then you stay nearby and evaluate the results of the battle nearby. The plane will arrive in three hours!" Hearing the reply in the communication channel, Fang Lang finally experienced what it is like to be a local tyrant, a local tyrant with no humanity. It''s just a war! How can there be so many twists and turns, isn''t it enough to push flat? If you have a plane, what kind of submarine do you need, what kind of hunting do you want. If one batch is not enough, make another one. I unconsciously told myself to change my thinking, now is no longer the era of giant ships and cannons. What does it mean to have air dominance is to have dominance of the sea. The waiting time is very difficult, especially when you know that something you are looking forward to is about to happen, this kind of waiting is simply a torment. Fang Lang felt a little restless. He tried to calm himself down, so he started to walk around the ship. As a result, the crew was very nervous. was forced to stop patrolling again, stood outside the bridge, and looked in the direction of Shanghai through the binoculars. He knows exactly where that direction is, and he really wants to go home and see what his hometown looks like now. Thinking that I just contacted the plane of the US military to bomb my hometown. Although it was attacking the Japanese devils, but thinking about it, I was worried that innocent people would be killed or killed. wanted to notify the U.S. military to cancel the bombing plan, but was afraid that the Japanese would really slip away from under their noses. The mood is very complicated. The adjutant who has been following behind him doesn''t know what happened to his chief! Yes, you read that right, Fang Lang now also has adjutants and orderlies. His adjutant is only a second lieutenant. The reason why his rank is so low is that before he was appointed as an adjutant, he was just an ordinary veteran of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. Being able to become Fang Lang''s adjutant is because he is a Chinese brother who joined the army with his predecessor, and he is also a friend who grew up together. The three people who joined the army together at the beginning, when Fang Lang ordered Duarte to select the marines, he directly pulled the list of the two into it. At first Fang Lang didn''t dare to contact them when he just woke up. After all, I am no longer my original self, and I am afraid that my close friends will see the flaws. Fortunately, both of them survived the war safely. Of course Fang Lang wanted to promote his brothers if he had the opportunity, so he directly transferred them to his subordinates. When the two saw Fang Lang again, they couldn''t believe their eyes. The brothers who grew up with them and joined the army together had suddenly become a high-ranking naval colonel. The real power officer of the entire Brazilian Navy, which made neither of them dare to recognize it. Fortunately, Fang Lang remembered every bit of being with them. After asking the two of them for their own opinions, they were directly promoted to second lieutenants, one as his adjutant, and the other as the second lieutenant platoon leader in the Marine Corps. Qi Qingshan saw Fang Lang''s nervousness, and remembered that before he charged on the battlefield, he would tremble from nervousness, but a puff of cigarette could calm him down. He silently took out Fang Lang''s cigar from his satchel, took out one and cut off the head of the cigar with a cigar scissors, then reached out and handed it over. Fang Lang looked at the cigar handed over, smiled and took it: "Qingshan, do you want to visit Shanghai?" Qi Qingshan slid a match, blocked the sea breeze with his hand, leaned in front of Fang Lang and said: "Of course. I also want to see my grandfather''s hometown, and I don''t know what kind of grandfather''s hometown is like, and whether there are any relatives there." "Yes! If our group of people hadn''t been gathered together and not separated, we probably have forgotten that we still have a root here." As immigrants, if it werent for the scarcity of Chinese in Brazil, everyone would have gone to Brazil in the same group, and they have been huddled together to keep warm. It is estimated that Fang Lang and his generation have already fully integrated into Brazil. Maybe I cant even speak Chinese! That''s why there are bananas. However, these Chinese in Brazil have been gathering together to form a small village. Most people are intermarried, and they are more or less relatives. In particular, the elderly have always been able to communicate only in dialect, that is, only when their parents go out will they use Portuguese. However, returning to the village will change back to Chinese communication. Therefore, everyone''s inheritance has not been lost. In fact, the same was true of Japanese immigrants in Brazil during this period. Fang Lang took a deep puff of the cigar, feeling the taste from his mouth, and gradually relaxed his mood. After exhaling the smoke, Fang Lang enjoyed the fragrance left in his mouth. The anxious mood gradually calmed down, and he finally understood why so many people like to smoke. Fang Lang, who always felt that he had no addiction to smoking, began to think about whether he would use cigars to calm his mood in the future. "Qingshan, we probably won''t have the chance to set foot on the land of our hometown to see it this time. However, after the war is over, we will have a lot of opportunities. At that time, we will arrange an opportunity for you to go back to your old man''s hometown to see See how." "Really? That''s really great, but unfortunately our old man is no longer here. I will go back and look for the things he left behind, and see if I can find the specific address of my hometown." While chatting with Qi Qingshan, time passed by little by little. (end of this chapter) Chapter 101: suicide attack Chapter 101 Suicide Attack Three hours is not a long time, and Fang Lang soon heard a report from the Combat Situation Center that a large number of aircraft groups in the direction of Okinawa entered the radar detection range. When the fleet approached the sky above the House, the Combat Situation Center found that there were more than 20 planes taking off from Shanghai. Fang Lang directly reported the situation to the aircraft formation. He also ordered all anti-aircraft firepower to be on guard against possible incoming attacks, but obviously in the eyes of the Japanese, the House is just a disease of ringworm. Now the Japanese military command is fully responding to the US air strikes, and has no time to pay attention to the House. Fang Lang was also happy to relax, just in time to watch the fireworks. However, the Japanese army only had more than 20 aircraft, and they wanted to stop the huge fleet of Americans. This is a bit of the meaning of a mantis arm. The air battle broke out soon, and Fang Lang could clearly see from the telescope that five squadrons of about fifty fighter jets flew out of the US military fleet, and they directly met the Japanese fighter planes. This made Fang Lang feel that it was too much. Wouldn''t it be enough for the four squadrons to be two-on-one? You are a bit of a bully when you come to five squadrons. Thinking about it, the four squadrons seem to be a little bully. well! Since they are all bullies, why don''t you send out six squadrons! Not atmospheric at all. Just when Fang Lang was about to ask Adjutant Qi Qingshan to prepare popcorn, he saw a plane start to fall with black smoke. Fang Lang had already ordered the deputy captain, Amar Reina, to approach the House as soon as a downed plane was found, and both American and Japanese pilots must be rescued. Rescuing the Japanese pilots was not for Fang Lang''s humanitarian spirit. Fang Lang mainly wanted to try whether the hands-on interrogation of prisoners learned on TV could be used well. From time to time, planes will fall down, and the House alone is definitely not enough to rescue them. We can only put down the transportation boat on board to help search and rescue. Just when Fang Lang was enjoying watching the excitement. Suddenly a feeling of heart palpitations came, and he quickly turned the telescope to the direction of warning in his heart. I saw a plane emitting black smoke staggeringly towards the House. Due to the long distance, only a small black dot can be seen, and the logo on the plane cannot be seen clearly. But Fang Lang doesn''t need to see the sign clearly, as long as he feels hostile, it doesn''t matter whether you are Japanese or American, you are welcome. directly ordered: "Azimuth 106, one enemy plane, after entering the range, the anti-aircraft firepower can open fire freely." Following Fang Lang''s order, everyone who saw it or didn''t see it began to execute the order reflexively, and soon the anti-aircraft artillery found the target. The double-linked 40mm Bofors cannon and the single-tube 20mm Oerlikon cannon locked on the target and fired. Although the enemy plane has been staggering and dragging a long black smoke column. But because it is a high-altitude dive, the speed of the plane is actually very fast. The anti-aircraft artillery continued to explode in the sky, and the low-level still charged towards the House firmly. Looking at the approaching enemy plane, Fang Lang understood the opponent''s meaning very well. This was obviously the same play as the devil''s kamikaze team. He wanted to drive the plane directly into the House and die together. As the enemy plane got closer, Fang Lang finally saw what the enemy plane looked like. It was a Type Zero fighter, and the bright red menstruation flag on its wings was clearly visible. Fang Lang did not order the warship to turn to evade, because the speed of the warship cannot be as fast as the plane. Although the enemy plane rushed directly from the side of the House, the entire side of the warship was exposed in front of the enemy plane. However, the Zero fighter was here for air combat. From the fact that he was able to maintain the stability of the fuselage after being injured, it can be seen that his load is not heavy, and there must be no bombs. As long as it does not hit below the waterline, it will certainly not cause too much damage to the House. But Fang Lang didn''t want to be hit by this shit! As the enemy planes approached, the firepower network on the House became denser and denser. Finally, when the enemy plane was about 200 meters away from the House, it was directly hit by an anti-aircraft gun. A huge fireball exploded in an instant, and the entire plane was blown into pieces directly in the air and smashed into the House. Everyone ran away one after another, only to hear the jingling sound like hailstones on the boat. Fortunately, everyone found a nearby bunker to hide. Except for an air defense soldier who was scalded by hot debris, there were no other casualties. Fang Lang couldn''t help but pay more attention to the advantages of using aircraft to attack warships. Today''s warships have no anti-aircraft missiles, no automated radar locking and targeting devices. If you want to hit an approaching aircraft with anti-aircraft fire, you have to rely on luck. Such a war is really frustrating! The enemy''s warship was hundreds of thousands of kilometers away, and they sent a plane to hit him with a fierce hammer, so he could only passively defend. And even if I am driving the advanced Fletcher-class destroyer of the US military. In front of him is the coast of Shanghai, but he can only watch. The artillery has a caliber of only 127 mm and a range of 22 kilometers, which seems to be very far. However, compared with the 50-kilometer coastal defense artillery, it is a bit tasteless. If he wanted to get close to Shanghai, he would have to blast the enemy''s coastal defense artillery for 28 kilometers before he could start a counterattack. This is still a yarn. What are the remaining weapons on board? Torpedoes against enemy ships. If the enemy has an aircraft carrier, what''s the use of torpedoes if you can''t even touch them anywhere? Depth charges can only blow up submarines hiding in the water, and have no effect other than accidents. Anti-aircraft artillery, can only be used for defense. This experience made Fang Lang deeply understand that a navy without an aircraft carrier is a joke, and he made up his mind that he must have his own aircraft carrier. Even if there is no aircraft carrier, you must have your own aircraft. Fortunately, the Brazilian Navy Department also hopes to have its own aircraft carrier. Everyone still agrees on this point. Moreover, the Brazilian Navy Department has also equipped itself with ten aircraft, and after returning, it must focus on the air force. Fang Lang remembered that the Brazilian aviation industry was very developed later. It seems that Brazil has room to develop the aviation industry! Why can''t I get involved? Selling airplanes is not a small business. Now that Boeing and Airbus have not yet risen, I still have the opportunity to participate. Unknowingly, Fang Lang''s thoughts drifted far, far away, and he even sneered at his plan to lead the House to attack the Japanese communication line this time. Just as Fang Lang''s thoughts were flying wildly, the air battle above was over. All Japanese fighter planes were shot down. American bombers have begun to break into the Japanese anti-aircraft firepower network and began to attack ships in the port. I don''t know why, Fang Lang felt very depressed. The war was starting not far from him, but he couldn''t participate at all. This is completely different from what I imagined. Isn''t this too much energy to use? They didn''t even kill a single Japanese. What kind of beating devils is this? It''s a shame to say it. Could it be that after landing in Japan, there will be a retaliatory massacre, not to mention whether the soldiers under him will obey orders. Yankees will not allow it! The more he thought about Fang Lang, the more aggrieved he felt, and there seemed to be an unknown anger in his heart that had nowhere to vent. As if he saw it, Fang Lang urgently needed to vent, and the messenger reported: "Sir, we rescued five Japanese pilots. And two American pilots, what do we need to do?" "Escort the Japanese pilots to the front deck, and send the American pilots to the lounge to rest. Don''t let them come out. I want to have a good chat with the Japanese." Fang Lang''s eyes were a little red, and he didn''t notice his state at all. The communications soldiers felt that Fang Lang had a feeling that strangers should not enter, which was completely different from what they usually saw. The current Fang Lang made him feel a little scared. quickly replied: "Yes, sir!" After finishing speaking, he ran down without hesitation. Fang Lang returned to his lounge and took his own gun. Go straight to the foredeck. Five heavily tied Japanese pilots were standing on the deck nervously, facing more than a dozen naval soldiers with live ammunition at a loss. Soon, I saw the soldiers step aside, and a young officer with red eyes and a Browning M1911 pistol walked over quickly. When several people saw the officer in front of them, they felt that the weather was hot. After being soaked in the sea, and then blown by the sea breeze, they felt that their bodies were very cool, and shivered for no reason. Everyone knows that this is not an illusion, nor is it cold, but the murderous aura emanating from the young officer. The young officer didn''t speak, and they didn''t dare to speak. Everyone just looked at each other quietly, and the atmosphere suddenly became a little weird. The scorching sun in the sky couldn''t make them feel the heat at all. In this oppressive atmosphere, they felt a chill in their hearts. Slowly, the Japanese pilot with the highest military rank couldn''t bear this oppressive atmosphere, so he forced himself to calm down and said loudly in English: "in accordance with the Geneva Conventions" Before he could finish speaking, the young officer directly stuffed the muzzle of the gun into his mouth, blocking his voice. Said in a cold tone: "Are the Japanese qualified to speak of the Geneva Convention? Have you ever observed it?" Without waiting for an answer, he pulled the trigger directly. The hot bullet passed through the mouth and directly passed through the brain, knocking off the Tianling Gai. The expressions of the surrounding Japanese changed drastically. The naval soldiers standing behind guard did not expect Fang Lang to kill people directly like this, and they were all shocked. Pointed their guns at the remaining Japanese pilots, as if they were ready to kill them with just one order. But how could Fang Lang entrust his work to others! He glanced at the body of the Japanese pilot lying on the deck, spit on him, and continued to turn his head to look at the remaining people. Seeing Fang Lang''s eyes looking over, two Japanese pilots hurriedly lowered their heads to avoid Fang Lang''s gaze. One even simply closed his eyes, looking like he was about to kill himself. Only one person''s eyes were wide open, and his eyes spewed fire as if he was going to kill Fang Lang. Fang Lang met his gaze, and shot directly between the eyebrows. After the gunshots, Fang Lang''s cold voice was heard. "I don''t like the look in your eyes." The two Japanese pilots who bowed their heads lowered their heads even lower, their legs were trembling, and their bodies were a little unable to support and wanted to fall down. The Japanese pilot with his eyes closed trembled when the gunshot fired, and then he turned his body slightly as if he wanted to make sure that he had been shot. It wasn''t until the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground nearby that he was sure that he hadn''t been shot, and closed his eyes even tighter. (end of this chapter) Chapter 102: new business partner Chapter 102 New Business Partner The two Japanese pilots who bowed their heads lowered their heads even lower, their legs were trembling, and their bodies were a little unable to support and wanted to fall down. The Japanese pilot with his eyes closed trembled when the gunshot fired, and then he turned his body slightly as if he wanted to make sure that he had been shot. It wasn''t until the sound of a heavy object falling to the ground nearby that he was sure that he hadn''t been shot, and closed his eyes even tighter. Looking at the Japanese pilots in front of him, Fang Lang suddenly felt a little bored. The two were a little tougher just now, so Fang Lang shot and killed them without hesitation. If these three people can also be a little tougher, Fang Lang will definitely shoot them without hesitation to vent his emotions. But seeing their performance now, it seems that they are bullying them by themselves. Let yourself be a little boring. At this moment, the gunfire on the bow deck also attracted the attention of the guests on board. Qiu Ze and Qiu Yuyizheng walked over anxiously, accompanied by the bosun of the House. Still screaming incessantly: "Mr. Fang, keep someone under the gun. Keep someone under the gun!" Behind them were two soldiers with guns, obviously ordered to monitor them. Looking at being blocked by naval soldiers surrounded by the remaining three Japanese soldiers, Fang Lang looked cold, looked at the two with a little doubt, and said: "You two, what''s the matter? Kill a few Japanese, do you have any opinions?" Looking at Fang Lang''s cold face, Qiu Ze repeatedly waved his hands and said: "Mr. Fang, that''s not what I mean. I wonder if we can have an interrogation first. After the interrogation, you can do whatever you want." Fang Lang wanted to interrogate these Japanese at the beginning, and torture them by the way. However, the nameless anger that had just suddenly risen directly wiped out the desire to torture them. He just wanted to kill them and calm down his emotions. However, after killing an officer and a diehard who was not clamoring about the Geneva Conventions, the nameless anger in his heart has gradually subsided. I feel that killing prisoners is really boring, it is better to kill them on the battlefield with real swords and guns. Only by killing like this can the hatred in my heart be relieved. Unfortunately, I have no chance now. I can''t bring a boat of people to the land and kill them regardless. This is not killing the enemy at all, but death, because they have no way to break through the shore fire defense. wanted to interrogate them, but he had nothing to ask. Since the two military commanders want it, then give it to them! Fang Lang raised his hand to signal the soldiers to get out of the way, and said to the two: "There are three more, I''ll send you off. After the interrogation, you can figure it out yourself! You can contact your people, and they will come to pick you up tomorrow morning. We are also going back to Okinawa." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Zhong Ze said with surprise on his face: "Really? Thank you so much. We must report to our superiors and thank the Allies for their selfless help." "Don''t let your thanks stay on your lips. If you really want to thank me. After you finish your work here, come and find me at night. I have a business to talk to you about." Looking at the two members of the national army who were the only ones he had contact with, Fang Lang remembered the plan he was going to implement. Who else is more suitable to be a human trafficker than military commanders? No, it is not a human trafficker, but a labor intermediary. His eyes lit up involuntarily, and he spoke directly. Zhong Ze heard that Fang Lang asked him to go to him at night, and for some reason, he suddenly felt his chrysanthemum tighten. But I can only bite the bullet and agree. Fang Lang didn''t care about the reaction of the two of them, and turned and left directly. After watching Fang Lang leave, both of Zhong Ze breathed a sigh of relief. I always feel that my compatriot''s emotions just now are a bit wrong, but I can''t tell what''s wrong. What the two of them didn''t know was that at the same time, the crew of the House who had been guarding around were also relieved. Fang Lang''s performance today really made everyone a little scared. The look of killing people is like killing chickens, leaving an indelible influence on everyone. The crew of the House, although they are all soldiers, and have also experienced naval battles. However, this is also the first time that Fang Lang has seen Fang Lang headshot two enemies so casually at close range. When the skull was lifted and red and white things flowed out, several marine soldiers almost vomited. The momentum exuding from Fang Lang at that time made not only a few Japanese prisoners feel uneasy, but soldiers who experienced this kind of scene for the first time also trembled in their calves. Strength of composure for fear of being shot by Fang Lang himself. The aftermath of this incident is that all the crew members of the House, when they saw Fang Lang later, unconsciously began to feel a little afraid. Later, this matter was known to the entire First Fleet and even the entire Brazilian Navy. Fang Lang, a seemingly very talkative officer, is actually an out-and-out butcher. Killing people is as random as killing chickens. Although some people thought that Fang Lang was massacring prisoners, no one dared to make any comments in public. This made Fang Lang''s reputation unable to reach the level that could stop children from crying at night, but it also made the entire Brazilian navy respect him. The interrogation of the three Japanese by Zhong Ze and the others became extremely smooth, and the guy who kept his eyes closed seemed to be silent. In addition, the two of them are like pouring beans into a bamboo tube, answering whatever they ask. There was even a rush to answer, which made Zhong Ze and the others very uncomfortable. When did the Japanese become so honest. And the Japanese pilot, who kept his eyes closed, saw that the two had said everything, and seemed a little worried that if he didn''t say anything, he would be dragged to the target. gradually joined in, maybe this is what people often say about following the crowd! Of course, Fang Lang no longer cares about what happened here. Now his mind has returned to the bombing of the US military, although the effect of the bombing cannot be seen. However, after seeing the first wave of fleet turn around, the second wave of fleet came soon. Fang Lang knew that the Japanese freighters and warships in Shanghai were hopeless. Maybe after this wave of bombing, the ports in Shanghai did not know how long it would be before they could be put into use again. After all, with so many cargo ships sinking in the port, it would take no one to know how long it would take to clean them up. Fang Lang, who was bored, shook his head, left the matter to the deputy captain Reina, and went back to the captain''s room to rest. After dinner, Zhong Ze and Qiu Yuyi, accompanied by Adjutant Qi Qingshan, came to Fang Lang''s captain''s room. Looking at the two people standing in front of them who were a little uneasy, Fang Lang was not polite, and said directly: "I know that you are members of the military command and have great power in the government. I have a business and I want to talk to you or your chief." When Zhong Ze heard this, he quickly said flatteringly: "Sir, please do not hesitate to tell us what you have ordered. We will do it for you if we need it. If we can''t do it, we will report it to our superiors, and we will help you do it." Fang Lang smiled, picked up the cigar on the ashtray, took a big puff, and exhaled the smoke before saying: "Actually, it''s not a big deal. It''s actually very simple for your military commander. I have some industries in Brazil and want to recruit some Chinese workers to work in the past. I have already contacted the Hongmen of the United States, as soon as the war is over, they will start recruiting people for me. I need more manpower, tens of thousands is not too little, and hundreds of thousands is not too many. Since we met once, I will give you such a fortune. " Zhong Ze didn''t speak this time, but Qiu Yuyi, who had never spoken much, spoke after being exposed. "Sir, I seem to have heard this matter from a brother in the door. It turns out that this is your old business! You are really generous." As he spoke, he stretched out his thumb. Fang Lang didn''t expect that Qiu Yuyi was also a member of the Hongmen, so he couldn''t help but smiled and said: "Unexpectedly, brother Qiu turned out to be a member of the Hongmen. Has this matter started to work now? I don''t know how it will work." Hearing that Fang Lang called himself Brother Qiu, Qiu and Yi were so happy that they almost couldn''t find Bei. Hastily waved his hands and said: "Don''t dare to do it, don''t dare to do it, Chief Fang loves it. Now this matter has spread throughout Hongmen, and every hall is gearing up. After all, it costs five dollars to introduce a laborer, which is a huge sum of money. It is estimated that it will break its head by then. " I didnt expect that Hongmen of the United States would quote five dollars to China. This intermediarys commission is really ruthless. But Fang Lang didn''t mind, he smiled and said: "After all, this is a civil behavior, and the two of you can be regarded as members of the public family. How about talking about money? It''s a little inappropriate. My opinion is, how about exchanging penicillin?" When the two of them heard Fang Lang''s words, their eyes lit up with gold. Penicillin is a good thing! Because of the Japanese blockade, the price of penicillin in China was sky-high. It was worth two hundred dollars a bottle in the United States, and the price in China had at least tripled. The reason why Fang Lang proposed to exchange penicillin was because he was unwilling to give money and was used by the government to buy arms and weapons to fight the civil war. As for penicillin, even if government officials resell it, it must be kept in the country for use, and the people who are treated must be Chinese. In this way, at least a lot of Chinese people can be killed, and more seeds can be left for the nation. This is also Fang Lang''s original intention of establishing a penicillin factory. The output of the factory will be sent to China in the next four to five years. Even if the war is over, they are planning to transport these life-saving medicines continuously through the Xiangjiang River. At this moment, Zhong Ze spoke. "Are you serious about Mr. Fang''s words? I don''t know how much you charge per bottle of penicillin." Fang Lang smiled and said: "Everyone is compatriots, don''t worry! I will give you a bottle of penicillin at the ex-factory price of two hundred dollars. That is, for every forty workers you introduce to me, I will give you a bottle of penicillin." At first glance, forty people can exchange for a bottle of penicillin, which seems excessive. However, if the national government were to purchase at this price, it would not be available at all. Fang Lang was even a little worried, whether the government would directly arrest the entire population of the entire village for this drug. They can really do this kind of thing, but even if they do, Fang Lang won''t mind. After all, the lives of human beings in this period are not as good as dogs. Although they all have to leave their hometowns, at least it is a way to survive. (end of this chapter) Chapter 103: Before landing Chapter 103 Before Landing The two of them stayed where they were when they heard the price Fang Lang said, which was obviously much lower than the price they knew. Zhong Ze said without hesitation: "Mr. Fang, I don''t know that it is not convenient for us to use the radio station. I want to report directly to the higher authorities now." He knows this matter, and the higher-ups will definitely agree. However, this kind of thing is obviously not something he can decide. Fang Lang waved his hands indifferently and said: "Of course no problem, I don''t need you to answer me right away." Thinking about the fate of the national army in the future, he said again: I am not only recruiting labor, if there are any rich people who want to immigrate, buy a large farm or want to go abroad to open a factory, we can help with it. We in Brazil have a vast land and few people, and the land price is very cheap. I very much welcome my compatriots to settle down in China. In terms of safety, you don''t have to worry at all, I am everyone''s safety guarantee. " Although Zhong Ze didn''t understand why Fang Lang said that, he nodded again and again to express his understanding. Fang Lang then ordered Qi Qingshan to take Zhong Ze to the telecommunications room and ask him to contact his superiors. The result of the matter is obvious, how could Boss Dai of the military command miss this opportunity to make a fortune. Almost agreed without hesitation. Fang Lang no longer participated in the following matters, but directly arranged for Qi Qingshan to connect with them. When Zhong Ze and the others left the House with three Japanese prisoners early the next morning, Fang Lang could feel the palpable joy on the two of them from afar. However, these Fang Lang no longer care. He is no longer interested in staying here to attack the Japanese army''s transportation lines, and what he wants more is to see if he can go to Okinawa to steal a division. You cant study on an aircraft carrier, but you can also learn about large-scale fleet scheduling at the airport! According to Fang Lang Fang Lang knows that the Americans seem to have a rule that the captain of an aircraft carrier must be a pilot. There must be a reason for others to have this rule. There happened to be two American pilots on board. If I didnt have the opportunity to build a good relationship with them, what would I do if I learned some relevant knowledge? Then Fang Lang began to return in the name of escorting two American pilots back to Okinawa. General Clark, who was far away in Okinawa, heard that Fang Lang, a guy who clamored to teach the Japanese a lesson, returned to the Okinawa base in order to **** two American pilots, and he didn''t quite believe it for a while. But thinking about how the House has been sailing for a few days, I didn''t refuse, and agreed to the House''s application to return. Since Fang Lang was promoted to the commander of the First Fleet, he has been training Reina as the new captain of the House. Therefore, most of the time on the House was Rainer in command. Fang Lang had a lot of time to squander, and Fang Lang soon became familiar with two American pilots. Of course, this is Fang Lang''s own statement. As an adjutant, Qi Qingshan feels that the two American pilots may actually be more scared. Three meals a day, every meal is so drunk that it''s no wonder that they have a bad relationship! When the house returned to Okinawa at ten o''clock in the evening on July 17, Fang Lang insisted on driving the two back to the base in person. The two were very moved, a colonel officer, and their two lieutenant officers handed over. That is to say, Americans don''t like to ask for advice, otherwise they would have to have a three-way marriage in Taoyuan. When the jeep drove into the U.S. Air Force base, Fang Lang even expressed that he wanted to praise the two men for their bravery to their officers. Directly found Colonel Geller Meyer at the U.S. Air Force Base, who made the two of them hype, and made the two American pilots who were confident that they were the best in the world blushed a little. Colonel Meyer was even more confused. They were so powerful that they didnt fly out of the solar system directly. How did they get killed? However, if others praise your subordinates for being great, isnt that just praising yourself in disguise? Unknowingly, Colonel Meyer also became a little ecstatic. When Fang Lang said that he would learn from the heroic U.S. Air Force, he patted his chest and agreed without hesitation. Early the next morning, Fang Lang took his luggage directly and found Colonel Mayer and said that he would be stationed at the air force base to learn advanced experience. Colonel Mayer reacted. But I already agreed last night, so I couldn''t say much, so I had to arrange a place for him. Next, Fang Lang began his journey of stealing lessons from the US Air Force base. He learns to fly a plane, learns to maintain an aircraft, learns aircraft tactics, and learns flight scheduling. As long as it is available in the U.S. Air Force base, he will learn it, no matter what type of aircraft it is, fighter or transport aircraft. Even the stalker said that he would transfer ten fighter planes and pilots under his command to join the battle. Colonel Meyer persuaded him a lot before he stopped thinking. Although Colonel Mayer felt as if he had fallen into a big pit, he had to admire Fang Lang''s enthusiasm and initiative in learning. At first every morning at 8 o''clock, Fang Lang''s subordinates would send over the situation of the fleet and some matters that Fang Lang needed to deal with. Later, Fang Lang found out that after dealing with these, Colonel Meyer could not be blocked, and he directly changed the reporting time to lunch time. In the morning, follow Colonel Meyer to study. At lunch, after finishing my own work, I went to other places to learn the work of other positions. This made Colonel Mayer seriously pass on what he knew to Fang Lang. Except for the work that requires confidentiality, Colonel Meyer basically has no reservations about other things. Of course, this has nothing to do with Fang Lang''s frequent gifting of small gifts and souvenirs. This is purely Colonel Meyer''s heartfelt admiration for Fang Lang''s studious attitude. During this period of time, Fang Lang certainly didn''t do nothing except study. For example, around July 30th, he deliberately got in touch with his family in Brazil, asking his family to start arranging a ship to go to China to implement the immigration plan as planned. And let his father Fang Xinshan personally lead a ship and a crew capable of driving at least two ships to accompany the fleet. When the ship set off, in addition to the urgently needed food in the country, it also took the penicillin that had just been officially put into production, and shipped as much as it had. After unloading the supplies to his hometown, he led an empty ship and a crew capable of driving two ships and waited for his own notice. The most important thing is that you must bring a teacher who has carefully studied the ideological education textbook written by Fang Lang, which integrates the knowledge of success and pyramid marketing, and has a strong sense of identity with Chinese civilization. He needs to brainwash all immigrants on board. The time to study passed very quickly. Since going to Shanghai once, Fang Lang has never gone to sea again. House went out to perform the mission according to the order of the US Navy. Actually, during the learning process, Fang Lang was still looking forward to it, and focused on the bombers taking off from Okinawa on August 6th and August 9th respectively. Put hope in witnessing the historic moment of mounting the nuclear bomb. As a result, he was disappointed. Although the U.S. military also has flight missions in the past two days, and there are continuous planes taking off and landing, it is a pity that the nuclear bomb did not depart from Okinawa at all! It was not until many years later that the U.S. military declassified that he knew that the plane that dropped the nuclear bomb took off from Tinian Island in the Northern Mariana Islands. On the evening of August 8, the Soviet Union also officially notified Japan. The Soviet Union will be loyal to the obligations of the alliance, tear up the "Soviet-Japanese Non-Aggression Treaty" and officially declare war on Japan on August 9. The next day, the same day that the second atomic bomb was dropped, the Soviet Union''s 1.5 million troops launched an attack on the 700,000 Kwantung Army in the northeast. On August 10, Japan sent a begging note to the Soviet Union, the United States, Britain, and China through the neutral countries of Switzerland and Sweden. Therefore, historians have two predictions about the reasons for Japans surrender. Some say it was because of the U.S. atomic bomb, and some say it was the Soviet Unions attack on the Northeast, which cut off the mainland back road reserved by Japan for itself. But no matter what the reason is, since Japan issued a begging note, it means that Japans surrender has entered a countdown. Therefore, the U.S. military has already begun to assign troops to Japan and occupy areas. The Brazilian Expeditionary Force was once excluded, which made Fang Lang unbearable. I traveled thousands of miles to set foot on the mainland of Japan as an occupying army. Now you are telling me that you have nothing to do with the Brazilian expeditionary force. Uncle can bear it, but aunt can''t bear it. Fang Lang directly blocked General Clark in the office. From the same allied forces, and traveled thousands of miles to help in the war. I had more than three hours of repeated communication on various aspects such as my historical mission as a Chinese. Finally, he said that his subordinates found ten dark and thin old Okinawa women in a corner of Okinawa. If you can''t participate in the landing in Japan. Then, after getting his good brother John drunk, he would lock himself in the same room as these old women. Fang Lang will not be responsible for what happens in the room at that time. Finally, General Clark agreed to come forward to coordinate and let Fang Lang land in Japan as an occupying force. However, you dont have to think about Tokyo, you can only choose other cities. Fang Lang readily chose Osaka. As for why he chose Osaka, Fang Lang certainly has his own reasons. In fact, everyone is very clear about the so-called occupying forces. The landing and occupation are only external, and the real purpose is to benefit after the occupation. The Brazilian Expeditionary Force led by Fang Lang, because there is only one Fletcher-class destroyer and one submarine captured to Germany, is very weak and has almost no contribution to the Pacific War. The United States regards Japan as its own land, and it is certain that it is unwilling to let Brazil, which has little contribution, participate in the distribution of benefits. Finally, considering the relationship of allies, the entire Brazilian Expeditionary Force has only 500 marines, and it is not capable of gaining much benefit in Japan. After repeatedly weighing the pros and cons, they agreed to the Brazilian Expeditionary Force''s participation in the occupation of Japan. As for whether the Brazilian Expeditionary Force will make trouble after landing in Japan, the Americans are not worried. There are more than 500 marines, plus only 700 navy crew members. How much trouble can it cause? Moreover, Osaka, as the second largest city in Japan during World War II, has always been a key bombing target of the US military. As of July 24, 1945, Osaka Castle was attacked by the US military thirty times. In the multiple air strikes by the U.S. military on Osaka, a total of 10,388 people were burned to death in Osaka, while the affected population reached 1,135,140, ??310,955 houses were burned, the most prosperous downtown business district in Osaka was completely burned, and industrial production capacity basically collapsed Lose. Even if the Brazilian Expeditionary Force can really search in the city of Osaka that has been bombed into ruins, what good treasures can they find! The main targets of the U.S. military are all large military enterprises in Japan. Although Osaka has an Osaka Artillery Factory, it has already been heavily bombed. The factory buildings have disappeared on the ground, so what treasure can be left for the expeditionary force? Even if there are still treasures, for the powerful United States, they are still some leftovers, so it doesnt matter if you give them a reward to the little brother. (end of this chapter) Chapter 104: impression of osaka Chapter 104 Impressions of Osaka At noon on August 15, 1945, Tianhuang, the native kingdom who lived a good life, officially announced his unconditional surrender. Fang Lang waited early in front of the radio and witnessed this historic moment. After listening to the devil Tianhuang''s speech on the radio, Fang Lang looked at his homeland in the west of Okinawa Island for a long time without saying a word. Although the United States has agreed to the participation of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force in the occupation of Japan, Fang Lang knew very well at that time that what the Americans wanted was to control Japan alone. Instead of being occupied by the allies as in Germany. Therefore, the United States has already clearly stipulated that the United States bears the main responsibility for providing the occupying force, and the commander of the occupying force and its main commanders should be Americans. After Japan announced its surrender, the U.S. government directly appointed MacArthur as the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in Japan. This order annoyed the Soviet Union and demanded that this post should be shared by Vasilevsky and MacArthur. It was directly rejected by the United States, and it was clearly stipulated that it would not engage in Germany''s multinational occupation policy in Japan. In fact, it clarifies the policy of Japan''s sole occupation by the United States. However, in order to make their appearance less ugly, the U.S. government also agreed that the allies can send troops to Japan, but they must obey the unified command of the Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces in Japan, who is headed by MacArthur. Such a request is of course indifferent to a little brother like the Brazilian Expeditionary Army. This is absolutely unacceptable for the Soviet Union, which is the main force of the Allied Powers. Knowing that the Americans just want to bring in people to share the military expenses of the garrison, they cannot implement the management of the occupied areas. This kind of thankless thing was directly rejected by the Soviet government. Of course, the British government has already handed over the command of the Pacific Fleet to the United States, so it doesn''t matter. As the main force against Japan, although the national government was also invited by the United States to station troops in Japan, at this time the national government was busy seizing territory in the country, so it had no time to pay attention. In the later period, in order to reduce the economic pressure of stationing troops in Japan, the United States also repeatedly asked the government to go to Japan to station troops. It is a pity that the government has no ability to transport troops to Japan. Nor can afford the military expenditure of the troops stationed in Japan. The U.S. government is unwilling to want to bear the burden, and it later turned into infinite wrangling. It was not until the United States finally agreed to provide equipment and supplies for the garrison that Chiang agreed to send the Honorary Second Division, which had participated in the Burma War, to Japan in August 1946. But because of the civil war provoked by Lao Jiang, this unit failed to make the trip, and was finally wiped out on the Huaihai battlefield. From the beginning to the end, Fang Lang never thought about stationing troops in Japan for a long time. He came here to make a fortune, not to strengthen the territory. Therefore, the interests that big countries need to consider have nothing to do with him. He also doesnt want to be like Australia and New Zealand, really stationed in Japan to work for Americans. On August 28, the first batch of U.S. Marines landed in Yokosuka, and then 150,000 U.S. troops occupied the entire territory of Japan, and began to occupy Japan in the name of the Allied Occupation Forces. At 9:00 am on September 2, Japan officially signed the surrender agreement, and the Second World War officially ended. On September 5th, Fang Lang received an order from the Supreme Command of the Allied Forces in Japan to station in Osaka. More than 20 days have passed since Japan announced its surrender at this time. It has been a week since the U.S. military actually landed in Japan. It can be seen from this that the so-called joint occupation of Japan by allies in the United States is simply a joke. In a week, the good things have already been divided up by you Americans. After two days of sailing, Fang Lang led the House, the Hope, and the entire crew of the two supply ships to Osaka. When Fang Lang got off the boat and set foot on the land of Osaka, Fang Lang had mixed feelings in his heart, which was beyond description. Later generations Fang Lang has set foot in Osaka countless times, and even knows many customs areas in Osaka, no, they are scenic areas. But it was a completely different mood from when I landed in Japan with the army this time. Standing in place and looking at the dilapidated, almost scorched-earth Osaka, Fang Lang suddenly laughed. Laughed for almost three minutes, and finally cried out after the tears came out: "Little Japan, are you ready? I''m here." After speaking, in front of a group of inexplicable subordinates, he strode forward directly into downtown Osaka. Osaka at this time is a real ruin, and it is basically difficult to see complete buildings. Ragged Japanese people are everywhere. It''s a pity that in Fang Lang''s eyes, Fang Lang can''t afford even a trace of pity. If they didn''t initiate this war by themselves, how could there be today''s consequences! At this time, many places in the country are more difficult than them, and people are more pitiful than them. Fang Lang wasn''t in the mood to care about their lives. As they got deeper and deeper into the urban area of ??Osaka, everyone finally began to see the occasional buildings with reinforced concrete structures. Japan is a country on the volcanic belt, so earthquakes are very frequent. Most of the buildings in Japan are low-rise wooden buildings, and wooden buildings are prone to fire, so they basically cannot survive the bombing. As long as this kind of reinforced concrete building is not directly hit, there is basically no need to worry about damage, so it can exist strong. Originally, the U.S. military asked the Brazilian expeditionary force to be stationed with the U.S. military, but Fang Lang refused. He came to make a fortune. How can he make a fortune under the eyes of you Americans all day long! Soon, the advance team in front of him came to report and found a suitable place to be stationed. This is a well-preserved school. When Fang Lang led people here, there was a group of students blocking the door, preventing the advance team from entering. Fang Lang walked around the school, and it was indeed a very ideal place. The school has a complete wall, and only a sentry box needs to be set up at the school gate. Inside is a closed space. There is a playground for training, and the classrooms and dormitories are basically kept. whole. Then there is nothing to say, it is simply tailor-made, and there is no need to live in a tent anymore. If you come early, you may have to accept the surrender, and you may be able to live in a Japanese military camp. But the U.S. military has entered Osaka to accept the surrender a week ago. The barracks is where American soldiers are stationed. Fang Lang doesn''t want to be stationed with them, so of course he needs to find another place to station. Since Fang Lang thought the place was good, he walked directly to the door blocked by the students. A group of unarmed students are confronting soldiers from the advance team of the Brazilian Marine Corps. Obviously, everyone is not allowed to expropriate the school. Fang Lang smiled, these students are a little ignorant of current affairs! But it is understandable when you think about it. After all, the Japanese people have been educated by the Japanese Communist Party for many years, and it is normal that they cannot accept the fact of surrender. Thinking about what the Japanese soldiers did in the country, Fang Lang''s face darkened. Zhuang Xintian, the second lieutenant and platoon leader of the advance team, asked: "what happened?" Zhuang Xintian is another brother who participated in the expedition with him, because he likes the first-line troops, so when he and Qi Qingshan were assigned to the First Fleet, he chose to join the Marine Corps. Now a second lieutenant platoon leader in the Marine Corps. "Report sir, these students are blocking our way and not allowing us to enter the school." Fang Lang asked nonchalantly: "What did they say, did they identify themselves?" Zhuang Xintian was taken aback for a moment, and said in embarrassment: "Report sir, we can''t understand what they are saying." Staring at Fang Lang, he cursed angrily: "Don''t understand? If you don''t understand, how do you know they are students? Damn, don''t you see that they are wearing uniforms? This is the rebel army, arrest them all." The Japanese school uniforms of this period are uniform shirts, trousers and jackets, which are actually somewhat similar to the uniforms of the Japanese army. Of course Fang Lang knew that they were students, but he wouldn''t let their problems get used to them. Hearing Fang Lang''s words, all the soldiers of the expeditionary army rushed up to arrest these students without hesitation. Of course, the students would not just catch them. Then there was a fierce conflict. These soldiers will not be soft on the Japanese who dare to resist. It''s just a bayonet and a gun **** greeting. These students are all junior high school students, although they are not opponents of Brazilian soldiers. But everyone knows that young people are very impulsive, and it doesn''t matter how serious it is to start a fight. Soon some students rushed into the classroom and took out the firearms they usually use in school education. Seeing that these students had guns, Fang Lang was taken aback. He didn''t expect that the school had guns. But when both sides of the conflict have guns in their hands, they think the conflict will escalate. Sure enough, before Fang Lang could say anything, the soldiers of the Brazilian Expeditionary Army opened fire, and the students who took the guns at the first time were shot dead one after another. The students who were still fighting at the door stopped when they heard the gunshot. The soldiers of the expeditionary army, who were only greeted with gun stocks and bayonets, all loaded their bullets and opened the safety, and a slight movement would lead to a massacre. Although Fang Lang hated the Japanese, he never thought of killing these students, but was just going to teach them a hard lesson. Unexpectedly, there were guns in the school. Facing the muzzle of the black hole, the students finally calmed down. Fang Lang noticed a middle-aged man, about forty years old, limping out of the school. Looking at his legs, Fang Lang immediately judged that this was a retired wounded soldier. This bastard, has been hiding behind watching a group of junior high school students clashing with the army in front, and did not come out to stop it. Now that the students have suffered casualties, they are limping, grinning, and barking indiscriminately! Seeing this situation, Fang Lang''s anger immediately came up, and he just shot without even thinking about raising his hand. The lame middle-aged man, who was still croaking just now, covered his chest with one hand, looked at Fang Lang with an expression of disbelief, and slowly knelt down on the ground. Then, he fell face down with a bang, twitched a few times and then became silent. The students gathered at the door were another commotion. However, instead of resisting this time, Qi Qi took a step back. (end of this chapter) Chapter 105: Rebels Chapter 105 Rebel Army The gunshots at the school gate quickly attracted the US patrol soldiers who entered Osaka first. After the war, the Japanese military and police were all disarmed. Therefore, the security of Japan at this time was entirely in the responsibility of the U.S. military. Until 1950, when the Korean War broke out, the U.S. military was transferred to North Korea. There were only a few thousand U.S. troops in Japan, which could not guarantee the security of Japan. MacArthur re-ordered the Japanese government to establish a police department. Originally, the landing of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force should have been arranged by the US military. However, it has only been a week since the U.S. occupied Osaka, and things are complicated, and the direction has not yet been figured out. I didnt have time to pay attention to the Brazilian Expeditionary Force at all, so I just kept in communication and didnt send anyone to greet them. As a result, this happened. A jeep parked at the gate of the school. Two American soldiers and a second lieutenant were sitting in the car. Seeing the cobra with a cigar dangling from the armband of the expeditionary force, one knew it was the Brazilian expeditionary force that had just landed. Everyone is an Allied Army. The Brazilian Expeditionary Force was originally equipped with all-American equipment. The uniforms and ranks are exactly the same, but there are differences on the armbands. They didn''t ask what happened, but when they saw Fang Lang''s colonel rank in the crowd, they came directly in front of Fang Lang, standing at attention and saluting. The person with the highest military rank is naturally the officer, there is nothing to say about that. Therefore, when he saw a colonel and officer here, he had to come over to greet him. Fang Lang didn''t put on airs, he stood at attention and returned a military salute. The second lieutenant officer asked: "Sir, do you need help?" Yeah, didn''t ask what happened, just came and asked if I needed help. Fang Lang shook his head with a smile and said: "I don''t need to help. Originally, we took a fancy to this place as a garrison. I didn''t expect that there were rebels hiding here." The second lieutenant didn''t expect that Fang Lang would say that there are rebels here, which is no small matter. Turning his head and looking into the campus, he saw about five or six students who fell to the ground, holding rifles longer than them. Isnt this the Rebel Army? The second lieutenant said directly: "Sir, since it is a rebel army, we will directly wipe out them all in accordance with the wartime management regulations. I will report the situation here to my superiors." Fang Lang didn''t expect that the second lieutenant would be so straightforward, and it seemed that he had dealt with such things a lot. Although Fang Lang thinks that the Japanese are all beasts. However, he still couldn''t shoot unarmed civilians, of course, the obviously disabled retired soldier just now didn''t count. After all, Fang Lang could tell at a glance that this incident was obviously fueled by this stupid person. "I will go to the Allied Command to report after I finish handling the matter here. Maybe I should get a copy of the "Wartime Management Regulations" and study it." "Need me to show you the way? Sir!" The second lieutenant of the US military was very enthusiastic and asked actively. "No second lieutenant, I''ll settle down first before going over, after all, this mess has to be dealt with." Fang Lang pointed to the school gate. The second lieutenant didn''t say much, nodded and jumped into the jeep. Fang Lang looked at the opponent''s jeep, wondering if it would be bad to ask to requisition his jeep now. Then shook his head. After all, this is someone elses patrol equipment. We should ask the Americans directly after the report from the US military base! If it doesn''t work, the Japanese will be recruited. Seeing that the second lieutenant had left, Fang Lang said directly to the marine soldiers: "Arrest all the rebels, and if there is resistance, shoot and kill!" "Yes, sir!" Give an order, then there is nothing to say, all the marines immediately started arresting people. The school gate, which had finally been quiet for a while, became chaotic again. Fortunately, no one dared to resist with arms this time. The soldiers of the Brazilian Expeditionary Army were also selected from the troops participating in the war, so everyone had a life-saving master on hand, and it was easy to let go to deal with a group of students. Maybe they were frightened by the direct shooting just now, and soon everyone was brought under control. Now that the matter at the door has been settled, the rest is inside. In view of the situation of armed resistance. The Marine Corps lost the ease and comfort it felt like traveling at the beginning, and began to follow the tactical actions of street fighting and began to advance towards the campus. Half an hour later, all the campuses were swept by the soldiers, and more than 300 students and more than 50 faculty members were arrested. Fang Lang didn''t understand why there were only so few students, but thinking about the ruins outside, he ignored it. What surprised Fang Lang the most was that more than 500 new rifles with unsealed strips were found in the school warehouse. This is an ordinary junior high school, not a military academy, so why prepare weapons? Even if all the people are soldiers to defend the homeland, it shouldn''t be a group of junior high school students to go to the battlefield! These Japanese are really nothing. Now it''s all right, with so many rifles, these students are not rebels or rebels now. Fang Lang is a little bit hard to get off, so kill him! There is nothing to do. It is also a hot potato if you don''t kill it and keep it in your hand. After all, before landing in Japan, MacArthur repeatedly issued orders to the Allied soldiers, requiring all soldiers to observe military discipline and maintain the image of the Allied Army as a righteous and civilized army. It cannot arouse the resistance of the people at the bottom of Japan. Take a look at the school teachers and students squatting in a ball on the playground! Fang Lang shook his head helplessly, and said to Marine Corps Commander Duarte: "Old Du, this is our garrison now, and you are in charge of setting up the camp. I will report to the Allied Commander. By the way, I will ask these brats how to deal with it." "Yes, sir!" Soon, Fang Lang went out in a car and a truck that the soldiers requisitioned from the school and went straight to the Allied Command. As for why you bring the truck, the reason is very simple! Because our Colonel Fang has a whole platoon of guards besides his adjutant. Although, it is not used when on the boat. However, as long as he is on land, the guard platoon will accompany him to protect him. After all, it is a time of war, and it will be a big shame if the next one is accidentally shot by a bum. The U.S. Army was responsible for the occupation of the 3rd Cavalry Brigade of the 1st Cavalry Division in Osaka, which was later sent to North Korea. At this time, the garrison was located in the barracks of the former Japanese Osaka Division. Of course, as a key military unit of the Japanese army, it was also a key bombing target of the US military. According to Fang Lang''s understanding, the barracks at this time should be in ruins. But when Fang Lang arrived at the garrison by car, he discovered that the garrison camp was under construction at this time. Most of the workers are short Japanese, and the American soldiers are bragging and farting with weapons. Seeing this situation, I felt very American. After passing the gate inspection, Fang Lang successfully met Colonel Borko Malik, the brigade commander of the 3rd Cavalry Brigade. Colonel Malik is a brown-haired white man. What is impressive is that his eyebrows are very large, like two big brooms. As the supreme commander of the occupying forces in Osaka, Malik welcomed Fang Lang''s arrival very much. Although MacArthur arranged for 460,000 people to occupy Japan, there are still many places that need to be occupied. On average, he has less than 5,000 people in his hands, and it is really too busy to control a big city with a population of nearly one million people. And many of these people are diehards who are unwilling to accept surrender. Although Fang Lang only has a Marine Corps of more than 500 people, no matter how small the mosquito legs are, he is still meat! So before Fang Lang saluted, Malik had already stepped up and grabbed Fang Lang''s hand. "Fang, you are finally here. I am the commander, Colonel Malik, and everyone is a colonel, so you are welcome. Just obey the command and don''t care about these formalities." Reminding Fang Lang inside and outside the words, although you are also a colonel, but I am the commander, and you must obey my command. Fang Lang didn''t care, he smiled and said: "Colonel Malik, rest assured, the Brazilian Expeditionary Force has always been the most staunch ally of the United States. We are here to support you. If there is anything we need to do, please speak directly. I will arrange it immediately." Fang Lang doesn''t care about this so-called command right! It is best for you to command, and you can take the blame for the disaster we caused. However, if you want to command the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, you must go through yourself. Upon hearing that Fang Lang was so talkative, Colonel Malik was also relieved, and said: "I heard that you encountered a group of rebels as soon as you landed? Are our people all right?" "Don''t worry! Our people are fine. I came here in such a hurry just to communicate with you about how we should deal with these people. Except for the six rebels who resisted with guns, we killed the rest of the people who were temporarily detained by us. In addition, we confiscated more than 500 rifles from their warehouse. " Fang Lang deliberately emphasized the number of rifles with a serious face. Malik was taken aback when he heard that, more than 500 rifles are not a small number. I have been organizing soldiers to collect ordnance for so many days, but I never thought that under my nose, the Japanese still have an arsenal. "These damned dwarfs, I''ll send someone over to take pictures and keep the evidence. As for what to do with them, you can figure it out yourself! If they don''t work, they''ll be shot." Isn''t it about maintaining the image of a teacher of justice and a teacher of civilization? So simple and rude, are you not afraid of riots by the Japanese people? "Colonel Malik, but I think most of them are still children. Wouldn''t it be nice to shoot them?" Finally, Fang Lang resisted the rush to accept the order happily, and said hesitantly. Unexpectedly, Colonel Malik said strangely: "Fang, haven''t you fought with their child soldiers?" Fang Lang was stunned by these words, although I heard that the Japanese did recruit a large number of minors to join the war because of insufficient soldiers in the later period. Unfortunately, I came late and missed it! Besides, Im in the navy, even if Im confronting Japanese warships, I dont know whether there are child soldiers in the opponents army! Dear book friends, the God of Harmony is too powerful, so I dare not (end of this chapter) Chapter 106: poisonous order Chapter 106 Order is poisonous Regarding Colonel Malik''s question, Fang Lang thought for a while and shook his head and said: "Mr. Colonel, I really haven''t fought against Japanese shorty child soldiers. The Japanese are not tall, and adults are similar to children wherever they stand. I really can''t tell them apart." Colonel Malik laughed loudly after hearing this: "Fang, you are such a humorous guy, I like chatting with you a little bit. Alright! Since you haven''t dealt with it, let someone bring them to me. Let''s deal with it." This was originally Fang Lang''s plan. If these are a group of Japanese prisoners, especially those who have been to the country, as long as you Malik dare to say a word, they will be shot. Then you dont even think about taking back this order, it will definitely be executed thoroughly. It just so happened that Fang Lang also wanted to try whether the 12.7mm machine gun really had the effect of Schwarzenegger''s movie. "No problem, Mr. Colonel. We can be settled today, what is our mission?" After talking about the handling of the rebels, Fang Lang began to ask about the next task arrangement. "The main task of the occupying army now is to maintain local law and order. Today, you just arrived, take a rest first. I will arrange two Japanese translators for you tomorrow, and you will patrol with us when the time comes. " Marik was very happy when he heard that Fang Lang took the initiative to share the task, and said directly. Fang Lang had expected this for a long time. This kind of patrol mission was exactly what Fang Lang needed. Now he urgently needs to familiarize himself with the situation in Osaka. And the two goals in his mind also need to go to the field to investigate before starting. Now Japan is the most chaotic time, and many things must be completed during this time. Otherwise, wait until October, when MacArthur accepted Japan''s request to cancel military control. And after the Japanese emperor and the government carry out indirect rule over Japan, it will be inconvenient. So, strictly speaking, Fang Lang''s plan has only one month to implement. "No problem, but Mr. Colonel, we are the Marine Corps. We don''t have any mechanized equipment, or even lack of transportation. This may be necessary, and you can help solve it." Some things are just a matter of giving each other face. Since they are ordering others to patrol, of course they must be equipped with relevant vehicles. The U.S. military that had just occupied Japan also seized a large number of vehicles from the Japanese, so Colonel Malik said without hesitation: "No problem, there are many seized Japanese Type 95 four-wheel drive reconnaissance vehicles parked in our warehouse. You can come and drive them away at any time." This so-called Type 95 four-wheel drive reconnaissance vehicle is actually a jeep of the Japanese army. During the war, about 4,800 vehicles were produced. Not many were used in China, and they were mainly used in Southeast Asia and the Pacific battlefield. Fang Lang doesn''t have high requirements for this, he only needs to open something. So he nodded without hesitation: "Then thank you for your support. When I go back, I will ask the soldiers to come and collect it. Specify our patrol area. After you confirm it, let me know, and I will arrange for the soldiers to carry it out. " In this way, the two quickly reached an agreement and shook hands to say goodbye! Fang Lang, who returned to the station, arranged for personnel to send all the arrested people to the US military base. And drove back more than 30 patrol cars, more than 30 trucks, and a Nissan 70 car belonging to a senior Japanese officer. According to the returning soldiers, the car was a gift from Colonel Malik to Fang Lang. To be honest, Fang Lang looks down on Japanese vehicles. However, I am very interested in the equipment and technology for producing cars. After the war, he also planned to establish an automobile manufacturing plant in Brazil, but he had already targeted the introduction of automobile manufacturing technology to the United States and Germany. Because Brazil is dominated by plateau terrain, the traffic environment is poor. Fang Lang hopes to develop and produce an off-road vehicle suitable for Brazil''s national conditions, and the best off-road vehicle in this era is of course Willys Jeep! Willys Jeep is basically the originator of modern off-road vehicles, and almost all off-road vehicles in later generations are developed on the basis of Willys Jeep. Of course, for the development of economic trucks is also a key model. However, the load capacity of Japanese trucks is only about 1.5 tons, which is not enough in the face of the maximum load capacity of American and German trucks up to 6.5 tons. This is also the reason why Fang Lang doesn''t like Japanese vehicles very much. They are all to be imported anyway, so why not let his starting point be higher. Dont look at modern Japanese cars as awesome. Japanese cars during World War II are scum. That night, Fang Lang gathered all the officers above the platoon rank of the Marine Corps for a meeting In the spacious classroom, under the dim light, Fang Lang hung a detailed map of Osaka City provided by the Allied Forces on the school blackboard. "Gentlemen, from now on we will begin military missions in Japan as an occupying force. Recently, I have heard voices from many people expressing incomprehension that we came to the Pacific to participate in the war, and they wanted to go home like the brothers in Europe. I can understand everyone''s expectations, and I also want to go home. However, we are here to build our mighty Brazilian Navy. Without our contribution in the Pacific theater, the Americans would not easily agree to let us have a powerful warship. Please believe me, by the end of October at the latest, I promise to let everyone go home together. But since we have come to Japan, I won''t let everyone go home with nothing. Starting tomorrow, we will go out in batches to perform patrol missions. During the patrol mission, I hope everyone can be more vicious and tough. Today is September 7th, I don''t care what method you take. I need you to clear two paths for me by September 23rd, this one and this one. " As he spoke, he painted the two roads red with a red pencil. Everyone listened attentively to Fang Lang''s words, and some even wanted to take out a pen to record, but Fang Lang reached out to stop it. "This operation is top secret and no records are allowed. This map will also be destroyed after tonight. Understand?" Everyone was shocked and said in unison: "Understood, sir!" Fang Lang''s eyes were cold, and he looked at all the officers sitting with a serious expression. "In order to increase everyone''s enthusiasm, I can clearly tell you here that within this month, the Military Law Department will be on vacation. During your mission in Japan, any actions that occurred outside this military camp will not be held accountable after you return to Brazil. And I have only one request, that is, the area of ??200 meters on both sides of these two roads should be completely cleared, and there should be no residents or non-our personnel, understand? " The officers below didn''t react at once, only a few sporadic "Understood". Soon there were low-pitched conversations below, and after a while, someone finally said hesitantly: "Sir, what if the soldiers killed innocent civilians outside?" After hearing what the officer said, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Are you sure he''s a civilian?" Seeing that the officer still didnt understand, the person next to him couldnt stand it anymore, kicked him and said: "Won''t you say he''s a rebel?" Everyone suddenly realized, with such expressions. Someone wanted to stand up and ask again, but Fang Lang waved his hand to stop him. Some words can only be understood but not expressed. If you still dont understand after saying this, it can only mean that this guy is an idiot and destined to have no future. "I''ll ask again, do you understand my mission requirements?" Now everyone did not hesitate, and responded loudly: "Understood, sir!" Next, Fang Lang began to combine the map to segment the two roads and assign them to different shifts. The meeting ends when all the officers are clear about the area they need to be responsible for. Although everyone is full of doubts, Fang Lang will not answer their questions, and even this meeting will not form any meeting documents. Even if someone asked, Fang Lang would not admit that he had issued such an order. As for why Fang Lang cleared these two roads, of course he has his own reasons. What the officers couldn''t understand the most was that Fang Lang said that he would choose to ignore the soldiers'' violation of military discipline outside the barracks. Doesn''t Fang Lang understand the consequences of doing this? Of course Fang Lang knew very well what the consequences would be after such an order was issued. Many people may think that Fang Lang''s purpose is to avenge what the Japanese soldiers did in his hometown. In fact, this is only one of the reasons. Another reason is that Fang Lang needs to clear these two roads. If these soldiers are not loosened, the soldiers will be a little bit stuck, and hidden dangers may be left at that time. The most important reason is that Fang Lang needs to make the Japanese hate Brazilians and Brazil. Reduce the situation in which a large number of Japanese immigrants settled in Brazil after the war in the original history. This is a part of Fang Lang''s population strategy. Of course, this alone is definitely not enough, but this is just a small method. Fang Lang has other methods behind him, trying to make all Japan hate Brazil. The meeting ended, Fang Lang directly burned the marked map, and hung up a new map, as if nothing had happened. In the next few days, things really started to develop as Fang Lang expected. First of all, the Japanese people said that Brazilian soldiers abused Japanese women. And after the incident came to Fang Lang''s place, the soldiers were still quite nervous, for fear that Fang Lang would shoot them. Fang Lang also promised very seriously in person that the Japanese people would catch the real culprit and punish him severely. As a result, the soldiers in the guard platoon broke the news that Fang Lang returned to the office without even looking at the evidence provided by the Japanese, and threw it directly to the cooking squad for fuel. This news is like pouring a barrel of gasoline over a burning firewood. (end of this chapter) Chapter 107: door-to-door investigation Chapter 107 On-site investigation Fang Lang burned the documents filed by the Japanese for the purpose of adding fuel to the fire. As for the effect, it was immediate. Next, there was an almost continuous stream of Japanese who came to complain. At the beginning, they only raped women, and soon developed into robbery of property. But Fang Lang almost died of anger when he saw the messy things dragged back by these soldiers. How poor you are! You don''t even know what is valuable when you grab something. I didn''t expect that soon some officers would start to take out stolen goods to honor Fang Lang. Fang Lang mentioned a few words with a little disgust, and the soldiers'' vision immediately improved. The soldiers no longer dragged back some useless things in large and small bags. Some high-value items began to appear in the things that honor Fang Lang, which made Fang Lang very satisfied. It''s not that they are satisfied with the high value of the things they received, but that the soldiers'' vision is getting higher and higher. At first, the Japanese translators assigned to the expeditionary force tried their best to stop the bad behavior of the Brazilian expeditionary force. However, how can such a thing that blocks people''s money be done! Soon, Fang Lang received a report that a Japanese translator was a member of the Rebel Army and was shot dead on the spot after being discovered by the soldiers. Fang Lang just smiled knowingly, and handed over the report to Colonel Malik, commander of the Allied Occupation Force in Osaka. After Colonel Malik received it, he just sent a translator over, and there was no further information. After this incident happened, the attitude of the Japanese translators in the expeditionary force immediately took a 180-degree turn. Not only did there no longer appear to hinder the soldiers from making a fortune, but they began to lead the way for the soldiers, telling the soldiers that those were rich, and the quality of the soldiers'' harvest began to multiply. This left all the soldiers of the Brazilian Expeditionary Army dumbfounded, not understanding what kind of brain circuit this was. Fang Lang just smiled when he heard it, and didn''t express his opinion. This kind of thing is not uncommon in that country, and this kind of **** can be seen everywhere in Japan later. Of course, the only ones being licked are Americans, and that''s where it is now. Every day before dark, Fang Lang will patrol along the road he drew under the protection of the guard platoon. Then there was no other action, as if the purpose of clearing the two roads was to make it easier for Fang Lang to enjoy the beauty of the sunset in the evening. As time went by, the soldiers of the expeditionary army became more and more active, and more and more times they found the rebel army. More discoveries means more kills. However, Fang Lang didn''t care about these things. The only thing he cares about is the soldiers'' completion of the mission. About a week later, Fang Lang suddenly began to make surprise inspections on the two roads in the middle of the night. Finally, once in the middle of the night, Fang Lang''s convoy was on one of the routes, and met two young people who crossed the route home in the dark. Fang Lang didn''t say anything after seeing it. Just before the patrol mission started the next morning, the platoon leader in charge of the cleanup mission was directly shot. All the squad leaders of this platoon became the leading soldiers directly, and all squad platoon leaders were drawn from other companies. Suddenly, the soldiers of the expeditionary army tensed up because of the indulgence they had been relaxing for a while. I remembered that the prerequisite for the chief to allow indulgence is the absolute silence on these two roads. Once you break this premise, you will have to pay the price of your life. In the next two days, the soldiers cleared the road exponentially. The Japanese residents on both sides of the road moved away one after another, and the factory workers were forced to stop work and evacuate. Soon, this incident caught the attention of Colonel Malik, who personally went to the camp of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force to ask why. Fang Lang had already prepared for this, and warmly received Colonel Malik. "Hey! Fang, what the **** is going on! Why do your people keep driving these Japanese away. These little dwarfs are annoying me every day." Colonel Malik had an annoyed expression on his face, but what he said was not to blame Fang Lang''s troops for their bad military discipline. Instead, he complained about the Japanese entanglement with him. Fang Lang smiled, handed out a cigar unhurriedly, lit one himself, took a beautiful sip, and then said: "Oh! These damned dwarfs, did they bother you in the past? Ordinary Japanese people are not qualified to see you! I don''t know if it is convenient for Fang to reveal who has such a big face to find you." After listening to Fang Lang''s words, Colonel Malik did not hide anything, and said directly: "These damned Japanese dwarves should all be hanged on the gallows. Of course, the Sumitomo family has such great energy in Osaka." Hearing what Colonel Malik said, Fang Lang''s heart moved, and he thought to himself, can''t you help it? On the surface, he said calmly: "The Sumitomo family, is it the Sumitomo Zaibatsu, one of the four generations of Japanese chaebols?" Colonel Malik looked at Fang Lang in surprise and said: "Fang, have you even heard of this family? Through my investigation in Osaka during this time, I think this family should be sent to a military court and tried as a war criminal. Unfortunately, no official order has been issued from above, and I cannot directly arrest these dwarfs. " "What does it matter? Even if they can''t be arrested now, all their property can be confiscated directly! This is enemy capital, and it should be paid to the allies as war reparations." Fang Lang approached Colonel Malik and fanned the flames. I saw Colonel Malik shaking his head, and said angrily: "Fang, I understand what you mean, you don''t need to test me. We were the first to land in Osaka, and besides taking over the military camps and government agencies, we immediately seized the properties of these big Japanese chaebols. The Sumitomo family, as the only chaebol family that made their fortune in Osaka and is headquartered in Osaka, must be our primary goal. However, after such a long investigation, we have not found any valuable wealth other than fixed assets such as factories. According to these little devils, all their profits are used to build new factories, and the new factories have been blown up by us. Damn it, I don''t believe their nonsense! " Fang Lang, who was directly exposed by Malik, was not angry, and said with a smile: "It''s not easy. Lock up everyone in their family and torture them. I don''t believe how many people can stand up and not speak out." As a result, Malik became even more angry, shaking his head and saying: "I want to do the same, but General MacArthur means that the so-called unconditional surrender of the Japanese government is just the unconditional surrender of the army, not the real unconditional surrender like Germany. Otherwise, why do you think this **** Tianhuang was not arrested, and continued to play tricks in the so-called palace! What a **** cousin. " Fang Lang, who came from a later generation, is of course clear about this situation. There are at least three differences between Japan''s unconditional surrender and Germany''s unconditional surrender: First, after Japan surrendered, the sovereign emperor system was transformed into a symbolic emperor system, but the core part of Japan''s political structure was preserved. This is the political basis for the Japanese ruling clique to rule Japan. Second, after Japan surrendered, the Japanese government became the policy executive agency of the US occupation forces and continued to operate as a machine for ruling the country, so it has not been substantially changed. This is completely different from Germany being directly managed by the occupying forces. Third, after the surrender, Japan was occupied by the United States alone, instead of being occupied by the four countries like Germany, which made it possible for the United States to rebuild Japan according to the wishes of the United States. Regarding Malik''s complaints, Fang Lang could only express his emotional support, smiled and comforted: "This is all a trick of those politicians. We are soldiers, and we can only follow orders. But it''s best to take the opportunity to make a small fortune, isn''t it?" Fang Lang got up and came to the desk, opened the cabinet, took out a wooden box from it, put it in front of Malik and said: "Mr. Colonel, this was picked up by my soldiers on the road when they were patrolling. It looks familiar to me, as if I saw it in your office. Originally, I wanted to send it to you, but since you are here today, I will give it to you to take it back! So as not to put it here, I will lose it again. " Marik looked at the wooden box in front of him, opened it directly, took a look at it, and closed it quickly again. and Fang Lang looked at each other, and they smiled knowingly, obviously tacitly. "Fang, thank you so much, I''m still wondering where my box went!" "Hey, I''m famous for picking up money!" Both of them burst out laughing. After laughing, Colonel Malik said directly: "Fang, in order to thank you for your generosity, let me tell you what I can do to help you, please speak directly, you are welcome." Fang Lang looked at Colonel Malik with a smile on his face, and really wanted to ask for two Japanese aircraft carriers directly. Unfortunately, Fang Lang knew that Osaka didn''t have them, and even if they did, he couldn''t give them to Fang Lang. "Is that so? I saw a few freighters parked on the pier in Osaka. I wonder if I can give me two." As a result, Colonel Malik waved his hand indifferently and said: "What is this, I will write a warrant now, and tomorrow you can let your people go to pick it. Brother, let me remind you again, you cant go back with an empty boat! Don''t look at the scorched earth that has been bombed in Osaka. In fact, there are still some good things preserved. Some things have been sealed by us. If you want it, I can call the shots and let you choose some of them. When the time comes, you will directly ship them with the ship. When you arrive in Brazil, you will definitely be able to sell them at a high price. " Fang Lang didn''t expect that before he could speak, Colonel Malik had already taken the initiative to introduce business. It seems that picking up gold is really an excellent quality, and we must continue to maintain it in the future and carry it forward. (end of this chapter) Chapter 108: artillery factory Chapter 108 Artillery Factory In Fang Lang''s impression, Osaka is actually the headquarters of the Sumitomo Zaibatsu, and the Sumitomo Zaibatsu started out in metal smelting. The biggest feature of the Sumitomo Zaibatsu during World War II was that the first heavy chemical industry center, and the second no commercial sector. Investment is all concentrated in metal industry, machinery industry, chemical industry, mining and other fields. The total capital reached a maximum of 10 billion yen, which was equivalent to about 2 billion U.S. dollars based on the U.S. dollar exchange rate at the time. However, with the large-scale bombing of the US military, these factories have suffered devastating blows. Just two days after Fang Lang landed in Osaka, Fang Lang also heard that the Sumitomo Foundation closed all factories, leaving only the vehicle factory in Osaka and the pipeline factory in Amagasaki. And reduce 100,000 employees to 5,000. Could it be that Colonel Malik wants to evacuate their vehicle factory by himself, but as far as Fang Lang knows, Sumitomo does not have any big car brands in later generations. Instead, there is a very well-known manufacturer of heavy equipment such as tractors and construction machinery, Kubota. Could it be this factory? But this factory has not been seen yet! It is estimated that there is no technical reserve in this regard. Thinking about breaking my head here, it would be better to ask Malik directly, so I said directly: "Oh! I don''t know what kind of equipment is being sealed? Being dragged away by me won''t affect you!" "The ones we sealed must be military factories! I don''t know if brothers are interested." Marik''s answer was beyond Fang Lang''s expectations. It''s not that Fang Lang never thought about developing a military factory. After all, Brazil in later generations was originally a world-renowned arms sales country. Although none of them are sophisticated weapons and equipment. However, Fang Lang was a little vacillating about entering the military industry. Because, he was a little worried that he would be nationalized. But now that he is being sold to the door, Fang Lang wants to hear what kind of factory equipment it is even to satisfy his curiosity. "Is there any preserved military factory in Osaka? I don''t know what kind of equipment it is." Malik smiled and didn''t hide it. "Fang, haven''t you heard of the first artillery factory in Japan, the Osaka Artillery Factory established in 1870?" Could it be that such a large artillery factory can survive the bombing of the US military? This is unreasonable! The gun-making equipment is all big guys. When they move back to Brazil, they will be directly taken over by the government. What a fart he is! Fang Lang really wasn''t very interested. The most important thing is that the equipment of such a factory will definitely not let me take it away directly! Obviously this is a business. Since it is a business, it has to be calculated. Such a large artillery factory can''t be built without hundreds of millions. Even if it is second-hand, can I ask myself to pay a few million later? Its not that its not worth it, but after shipping it back, there are only equipment, no technology, and no technicians to teach you how to produce. The more Fang Lang thinks about it, the more unnecessary it becomes, so he said jokingly: "Didn''t you flatten such a large artillery factory when you bombed it?" Malik smiled sarcastically and said: "Of course there is no artillery factory left, but these dwarfs secretly built an underground arsenal nearby, and transferred some important machine tool equipment into it. We only discovered it after we took over." Fang Lang didn''t expect that there was an underground arsenal in Osaka. It was obvious that Malik''s expression was not fake, but the production capacity might be enough. But its normal when you think about it. During World War II, Japan had the ability to produce artillery with a maximum caliber of 410 mm. It just doesnt know how much production capacity this so-called underground arsenal has. With the idea of ??inquiring about the truth, Fang Lang continued to say: "You mean, you want to deal with me a factory with artillery production capacity?" Malik started to feel a little embarrassed, he hesitated for a while before saying: "Fang, originally! This factory can produce artillery with a caliber of up to 240mm. After the bombing, the equipment in this underground factory can produce artillery shells. However, according to the judgment of our engineers, we can produce artillery and mortars with a caliber below 150mm at most. " Seeing Malik''s expression, Fang Lang thought that he had no artillery production capacity, but he was able to produce artillery with a caliber of less than 150mm. Now it''s Fang Lang''s turn to start struggling. This equipment is certainly very attractive to Brazil, but Fang Lang himself is a little hesitant. If he really takes over this batch of equipment. It might be a hot potato, but seeing Malik''s expectant expression, Fang Lang thought twice and said: "Brother, to be honest, your equipment is a bit hot for me. Now our military industry in Brazil has not yet started. If no one takes over after I ship it back, it may fall into my hands." Malik''s anticipation was immediately chilled, obviously he didn''t expect that the good things in his hand would not be sold. It was hard to find such a client. If I didnt find a buyer while I was in charge, I would have nothing to do with the government when it took over. So, Malik is unwilling to give up Fang Lang, his only client. After all, at this time, no one else can move freely in Japan except for the occupying army. In addition to the American soldiers in Osaka, only the Brazilian Expeditionary Force is left. It seems that this equipment can''t be sold to others except to sell it to Brazil. "Fang, we are brothers, let me tell you the truth! I didn''t report the discovery of this factory. If I can''t find a buyer to dispose of it before the end of September, I will have to report it. At that time, the right to dispose of the equipment will have nothing to do with me. Therefore, my quotation for this factory equipment is very low, 100,000 US dollars, all equipment and technical documents are packaged. " This price really broke through Fang Lang''s bottom line, one hundred thousand dollars, even if it was selling scrap iron, it would not be more than this price! And there is a full set of technical information, as long as the technical personnel of this factory are organized, can''t it be directly started production? The most important thing is that the person in front of him is the current emperor of Osaka. If he makes this money, then the relationship between the two will directly break through to the point where they share the dirt together. This is one of the four irons in life! Even if you can''t use it after you transport it back, you still have to take it! As long as I have this relationship, all my actions in Osaka will become unimpeded. What''s more, what I have gained in Osaka this time will be an astronomical figure, and I must not let the other party know. However, since I want to take away the biggest cake, there is no reason to let the host''s family have no chance to eat soup! Thinking of this, Fang Lang said directly: "Since this is the case, then I must help with this job. Brother, don''t worry, you are responsible for packing all the technical materials and workers! I''m here to find the buyer. If no one takes over, I will let our own factory eat it. You must never let your brother waste all his efforts and waste his time. " Fang Lang is acting like a good boy when he gets a bargain. He obviously made a big deal for himself, but he also looks like he gnawed it off abruptly to help his brother. However, Malik didn''t know Fang Lang''s family background! I thought that Fang Lang was a big soldier like himself, although he said that everyone would take over, and he would eat it in his own factory. However, Brazil is a backward country, how big can the so-called own factory be! Just such a statement, Fang Lang is simply "timely rain" and "Sai Mengchang" in the eyes of Colonel Malik. Of course, he must have never heard of these two nicknames. Without a word, Malik got up and gave Fang Lang a big hug. Emotionally excited, his voice was a little trembling: "Fang, good brother, thank you so much! I will go back now and organize these Japanese dwarfs to pack all the equipment and technical materials. Don''t worry about the workers, I will lock them up. When do you want them, come and pick them up. . After finishing speaking, we must go directly outside. It seems that he has completely forgotten the purpose of his special trip. Fang Lang quickly took the initiative to stop Colonel Malik and said: "Hey dude, didn''t you come here and ask me why I drove the Japanese away?" As a result, Colonel Malik said indifferently: "When will it be the turn of these Japanese dwarfs to make irresponsible remarks about our occupying army, and then they will be arrested by him as a rebel." Obviously, after the transaction between the two just now, the friendship between the two is no longer the same. Fang Lang couldn''t let Malik leave directly, because Malik didn''t ask Fang Lang, it didn''t mean he had no doubts, if he didn''t give him a reason to say the past. Sooner or later, he will have doubts and want to know the answer. This is human curiosity, and there is no way to avoid it. So, Fang Lang must give him a reason to say the past. "Colonel Malik, it''s embarrassing to say this. So, I didn''t report it. However, since you came to ask about it, as an allied army, I have an obligation to explain the reason to you. plz follow me! " Since the military rank of Colonel Malik has been re-named, it means that it is official business. Colonel Malik also knew it very well, so he stopped, followed Fang Lang across the playground, and came to the room at the corner of the playground. The guard pushed open the door, and Colonel Malik saw a coffin in the center of the room with a photo on it. Just listen to Fang Lang pointing to this coffin and saying: "Three days ago, one of my platoon leaders was attacked and killed while on patrol. However, the murderer was not caught. Therefore, the reaction of the brothers under him was a bit violent." "What! Such a thing happened, do we need to intervene in the investigation?" Marik saw the situation in front of him, not to mention that his doubts disappeared. However, I also found a reason to convince myself. Since Fang Lang didn''t report it, he obviously wanted to deal with it by himself. However, as the supreme commander, Malik must also ask whether the US military is needed to intervene in the investigation. "Colonel Malik, this is a problem between our Brazilian expeditionary force and the Japanese dwarf. I hope it can be resolved by ourselves." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Colonel Malik didn''t say much, he just patted Fang Lang''s shoulder with his hands, nodded, and turned and left directly. (end of this chapter) Chapter 109: Windfall Chapter 109 Windfall Colonel Maliks special visit to the expeditionary army barracks for investigation originally made the soldiers of the expeditionary army a little worried, and they were all considering whether to restrain themselves. The Japanese people also thought that things would change after the US military came forward. As a result, on the second day, before the soldiers of the expeditionary army went out to patrol, they found a new announcement posted on the bulletin board at the gate of the camp. When everyone was in a nervous mood, after reading the content of the announcement, they couldn''t laugh or cry. Of course, the content of the announcement made all the soldiers very happy. It turned out that the Japanese government established a comfort station in Osaka in order to meet the physical needs of the occupying troops. The so-called comfort stations are actually government-run brothels. Historically, the Japanese Communist Party organized and recruited about 55,000 Japanese women to provide comfort services for the US troops stationed in Japan. The comfort service priced at 15 yen a time is really not a lot of money for the US military. So, this service did reduce incidents of Japanese women being coerced by American soldiers. Moreover, it found a source of livelihood for many Japanese women who could not eat enough, and indirectly promoted the recovery of Japan''s post-war economy. Regarding the content of this announcement, the soldiers of the expeditionary force were very excited at first, and some soldiers even went together. But when they came outside the comfort station, they saw a long queue outside, and many soldiers turned around and came back. As for Colonel Malik''s investigation, Fang Lang did not explain anything, nor did he take any follow-up actions. Everyone understands that without actions and new orders, the chief has already dealt with the US military. Then there is nothing to say, the song should be sung, the dance should be danced, and the task must be resolutely completed. Time passed slowly amidst all the complaints from the Japanese. On October 3rd, the weather was fine, and Fang Lang finally waited for his father. As early as the end of July, Fang Lang had already notified his father that he would personally set off from Brazil with the fleet and bring the urgently needed supplies to his hometown. Because it took some time to raise supplies and recruit crew, it didn''t arrive in Shanghai until around September 20th. After arriving in Xinshan, after arriving in Shanghai, the materials were unloaded and handed over to the personnel in charge of the immigration work of the fleet. After that, they took the recruited crew and rushed to Osaka non-stop. After the fleet arrived in Osaka, it was directed to berth next to the House, and the recruited crew began to get acquainted with the two Japanese cargo ships received from Colonel Malik. Fang Lang and his father were alone in Fang Lang''s office in Osaka, talking behind closed doors for three hours, and no one knew the specific content of the discussion. For a while, Fang Lang had a cargo ship brought by Brazil, two Japanese cargo ships, and two fleet supply transport ships in Fang Lang''s hands. A total of five transport ships. After dinner that day, Fang Lang took the $100,000 in cash brought by his father to Colonel Malik''s office. Colonel Malik has been waiting very anxiously. "Fang, you are finally here. Yesterday, General MacArthur set up 10 management offices responsible for managing various fields of life of the Japanese regime. I expect that they will arrive in Osaka to start work the morning after tomorrow at the latest. We must move our equipment immediately, or let them interfere, and we will never get it. " This is the so-called Allied Forces Headquarters in the United States, referred to as the Allied Forces. It was established on October 2 and is headquartered in Tokyo. There are 9 bureaus including the Staff Department, the Civil Affairs Bureau, the Legal Affairs Bureau, the Statistics Bureau, the Economic Sciences Bureau, the Civil Intelligence Bureau, the Civil Communications Bureau, the People''s Intelligence and Education Bureau, the Natural Resources Bureau, and the Public Health and Welfare Bureau. Responsible for deciding and handling relevant matters in Japan, and division of labor to formulate various plans for post-war reforms and guide the implementation of various reforms. All management work of the Japanese government is carried out under the guidance of these departments. The so-called alliance is nominally composed of all the victorious countries against Japan among the allied countries. But in fact, other countries have no time to take into account the situation in Japan now, and basically the United States is in charge. And the first person in charge of the League is really General MacArthur, the Supreme Emperor of Japan. The establishment of the Union General Assembly represents the end of separate military control. This is why Colonel Malik is in a hurry to get angry. Of course, Colonel Malik is not the only one who is anxious. Fang Lang is actually more anxious than Malik. Once Meng Zong enters Osaka, it is impossible for Fang Lang to continue to maintain the vacuum of the two roads. That is to say, if Fang Lang wants to do something, it must be completed within these two days. Fang Lang patted the military package he was carrying in his hand, and closed the office door casually. "Oh! I can''t help it, I''m also in a hurry. Look around, it''s yours. There are five ships in the port now, and we''ve been transporting and loading them day and night for the past two days. I hope they come in a hurry." Marik was not polite, he reached out and opened the package, only to find a bag full of US dollars inside. Fang Lang watched Malik take out bundles of dollars and put them on the table. In fact, at a glance, they were in denominations of one hundred dollars, and there were one hundred bundles each, ten bundles in total. It can be seen that it is one hundred thousand dollars. But Malik counted one by one very carefully. Fang Lang was not in a hurry, he took out a cigar, lit it, and smoked slowly beside him. He knows that Americans don''t mind talking about money, and they also count money in person and will not avoid it. Fang Lang has never seen the factory equipment that Malik mentioned so far. It would be a lie to say that he is not worried about being cheated. However, everyone is a soldier, and some things need not be said too clearly. If you want to cheat money from a soldier. Then, you must be prepared to earn money but not spend your life. Dont think that you can sit back and relax because you are an American. The Rebel Army is the best shield. Colonel Malik finally counted the banknotes in his hand, and stretched out his hand to Fang Lang with satisfaction. "Fang, happy cooperation! I''ll take you there now. All the equipment has been packed and ready to be transported at any time." Fang Lang also got up and shook hands with him: "That''s good, we''re going to inspect the goods now, and I''ll trouble you about the transportation." After watching Malik lock the US dollars in the safe behind him, the two went out together, got into a Willys jeep, and under the protection of a group of US military and expeditionary force convoys, they came to the foot of a hill near the ancient city of Osaka. There is a large-scale factory at the foot of the mountain, and most of the factory building has been bombed and collapsed. But Fang Lang saw a large number of trucks parked in the factory. The two got out of the car and walked through a factory building that was built close to the mountain. The side of the mountain was not a wall at all, but a huge passage. Fang Lang has always known that the Japanese like to dig holes, and he never thought that there would be such a large project in downtown Osaka. At this time, the depths of the cave were brightly lit. Except for the American soldiers with guns on guard, Japanese workers in overalls were packing equipment in wooden boxes. Most of the equipment has been packed, and the rest of the equipment will definitely be packed tonight depending on the situation. Fang Lang was not polite, and looked carefully before walking into a few devices. It was found that most of the equipment was made in Germany. couldn''t help turning his head to Colonel Malik and said: "Germany?" Marik shrugged and said: As far as I know, more than 65% of the machining equipment are German products. There are also 20% American products. The rest are Japanese products. But as far as I know, the quality of Japanese products is very poor. This is really an unexpected surprise. Fang Lang would not have hesitated to eat this batch of equipment if he had known that there were so many German and American products! Even if he doesn''t produce artillery, Fang Lang can use these equipment to produce a lot of things. Fang Lang knew very well that the Japanese machine tool industry in later generations was very developed, and it was basically as famous as Germany and Switzerland. But Japanese machine tools during World War II were synonymous with poor quality. Take the Japanese military officers eight box guns as an example, basically copying the homework of the German Luger P08. However, due to the unqualified processing technology and material technology, Japanese military officers used it to commit suicide and it would get stuck. You can see the Japanese machine tool processing technology. So Fang Lang thought that this so-called artillery factory also used Japanese machinery. If the price was not too low, Fang Lang might not be willing to take over. Now seeing so many German and American machine tools, Fang Lang''s mood is almost the same as picking up leaks. Fang Lang just randomly checked a few packaged devices, and didn''t say anything more, directly saying that he could start loading the car. It is already dark now, but time is tight and tasks are heavy, and darkness can also provide a good cover for this shady business. Colonel Malik also ordered directly without hesitation, and everyone began to load the trucks to the dock. Fang Lang didn''t stay here and wait, but left the factory directly with Colonel Malik. Instructed the soldiers of the first company of the Marine Corps to **** them with the car. This can be regarded as private use of public equipment. However, the soldiers of the Marine Corps have no complaints. Because Fang Lang is also the boss who gives them allowances, whoever pays and works for whom is a matter of course. However, Fang Lang deliberately ordered a company of soldiers that all vehicles must pass through the two streets they had emptied. Moreover, there are other vehicles joining in on the way, and it is not allowed to mention to anyone. You only need to ensure that all the materials are transported onto the ship smoothly. After returning to the Brazilian Expeditionary Force station, Fang Lang was not idle, and directly organized the soldiers of the second company in the camp to line up with the guards, and went out by car in the dark night. No one knew the destination of the trip. Fang Lang, who was sitting in the lead car, guided the convoy along one of the two roads cleared by the soldiers of the expeditionary army. Soon, all the vehicles came to a dilapidated factory with a very long history. The entire factory is a masonry structure, a two-story building, an independent factory building about ten meters high, thirty-five meters long, and less than twenty meters wide. Under the lights of the car, you can see that the walls are covered with moss, telling you that this factory has a long history. (end of this chapter) Chapter 110: Sumitomo Co., Ltd. Chapter 110 Sumitomo''s Copper Blowing House In the dark night, a convoy of more than 30 trucks parked in the devastated downtown area of ??Osaka, in an old factory that seemed a bit out of place with the surrounding buildings. Compared to the large factories in Japan, this factory is so small that it can barely be called a workshop. So why this dilapidated factory, which obviously no longer engages in any production tasks, can still be completely preserved during Japan''s rapid expansion! If you ask any Japanese passer-by on the street, you will get an answer. This is the ancestral business of the Sumitomo Foundation of Japan, "Sumitomo Copper Blowing Works", and the first copper smelting plant of the Sumitomo Foundation is here. Starting from this copper smelting factory, Sumitomo started to enter the metal smelting industry, and soon became the leading metal smelting enterprise in Japan. Then developed into the later Sumitomo Zaibatsu. Needless to say, this convoy is the Brazilian expeditionary force led by Fang Lang. As for why Fang Lang came to such a small ancient factory ruins? This has to talk about the shrewdness of these Japanese chaebols. Everyone in the later generations is studying the Japanese chaebol. Why can they become such a behemoth again after being split up and reorganized by the Americans, and the factory was destroyed so badly? Everyone has a consensus that the Japanese chaebols had hidden all their wealth before they knew that Japan was going to lose the war. The Americans dug three feet and couldn''t find it. Fang Lang also confirmed this matter from Colonel Malik. The U.S. military did seize the assets of the consortium immediately, but found nothing. However, Fang Lang passed by Osaka once in later generations to experience the customs service of Osaka Custom Street, no, he made a mistake and started again, when experiencing the scenery of Osaka Scenic Street. I heard a story from a few Japanese drinkers sitting next to me who were drinking alone and getting drunk. As soon as Fang Lang came to Osaka, he quietly came to the site of the "Sumitomo Copper Blowing Works", the ancestral business of the Japanese Sumitomo Foundation, to confirm the authenticity of the news. Next, Fang Lang issued an order that baffled all the soldiers of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. They were asked to clear all the people within 200 meters of the two streets. So, today is obviously the time for Fang Lang to grab the fruits of victory. I saw Fang Lang flashlight, and walked into the dilapidated factory ruins that didn''t even lock the door. He came directly to a huge metal smelting furnace standing against the wall, opened a rusty iron door about two meters high and one meter wide, and walked directly into the smelting furnace. It looked like there were some old **** inside. Fang Lang scraped through the **** on the ground, found a cover and lifted it up directly. A dark hole in the ground leaked out, and the light of the flashlight shone down, revealing that it was a basement larger than the building area above. Walking down the basement, Fang Lang saw a neat row of copper rods stacked on the left hand side, yes copper rods. It is a copper rod made of pure copper for our common industrial use. On the right hand side, there are densely packed bronze vessels, and the number definitely exceeds 2,000. Qi Qingshan and the others who came in after Fang Lang were stunned. They didn''t know the value of these bronzes, but they were shocked by the huge number. All kinds of shapes are different, and the objects full of copper rust are obviously more eye-catching than industrial copper materials. Fang Lang didn''t talk nonsense, he just waved his big hand and said: "Move for me, move everything here, leave nothing behind." "Yes, sir!" Then the soldiers of the Second Company of the Expeditionary Army began to work as porters. Fang Lang was on the sidelines throughout the whole process and carefully directed everyone to pack and pack. Put all the bronze utensils into the wooden box that had been prepared earlier, stuffed with straw, cotton wadding and the like to prevent collisions. If there are Chinese historians present, they will be stunned, because there are at least 500 Chinese bronzes and bronze mirrors in it. There are Kui Shengu from the Shang Dynasty, tiger-eating man-cannons from the Shang Dynasty, sacrifice head square statues from the late Shang Dynasty, Chime Bells from the Warring States Period, Jingji Shiyou from the mid-Western Zhou Dynasty, and Chiwen Fangding Ding from the Spring and Autumn Period, etc. All of them are national treasures of China. In modern society, all these cultural relics are collected in the Sumitomo familys Izumiya Museum, and Chinese people can only watch them from a distance through glass cabinets. Although most of the fighters don''t understand what these things are. However, since the chief attaches so much importance to it, everyone must take it seriously. Through the counting and statistics of the packing, it was finally confirmed that the number of bronze wares reached more than 3,200 pieces. Everyone had a clear division of labor, some were packing, some were carrying, and some were responsible for transportation. Finally, the transportation was completed at dawn. However, Fang Lang didn''t stop, as if inadvertently said: "Don''t leave the copper material to the Japanese, take it all away." The price of copper during this period was as high as 3,514 US dollars per ton, and the copper bars here are at least hundreds of tons, and they are worth 300,000 to 400,000 US dollars. This is not a small sum. Of course, if it''s just for these copper materials, it''s definitely not worth Fang Lang''s effort to clear the two streets. According to what Fang Lang heard, these are not copper materials, but copper clad with gold. This is also the capital for Sumitomos rapid rise after the war and its rapid return to pre-war strength. The Sumitomo family is very smart. They store all the wealth of the family in the underground of this dilapidated ancestral property that has a history of hundreds of years. Everyone thinks that the Sumitomo family deliberately preserved this place to commemorate the family''s first copper smelting factory. Even only two old men were arranged to guard here, which is basically equivalent to being undefended. And all Japanese know that this is the ancestral property of the Sumitomo family, and the commemorative significance is greater than the actual significance. All members of the Sumitomo family almost selectively forget this place, and will not mention it easily. This place is also not in the list of Sumitomos production factories. The U.S. military searched according to the company structure of Sumitomo, and there is no such factory. Because he is indeed no longer a factory. It was this humble dilapidated factory building that preserved the wealth of the Sumitomo family and provided sufficient financial support for the rapid rise of the Sumitomo family after the war. Unfortunately, now because of the direct intervention of Butterfly Fang Lang from later generations, all the wealth hidden by Sumitomo''s family has been quietly and directly transferred. Actually, Sumitomos family had doubts about Fang Langs abnormal behavior, and found Colonel Malik to complain about the rampant behavior of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. However, they obviously forgot their identity as a defeated country, and the defeated country has no room for bargaining. As a big Japanese chaebol, the U.S. government is trying every means to pursue your war crimes, and has included the current owner of the Sumitomo chaebol in the list of war criminals. How can you embarrass your allies for you! So, their complaints did not achieve the effect they wanted, but the soldiers of the Brazilian Expeditionary Army intensified. This allowed them to pay attention to their ancestors from a distance, and they were directly driven out of the observable range. Maybe this is the so-called shooting yourself in the foot! Seeing that the sky is already bright, although, I am not afraid that Sumitomo''s house will find out. But there is definitely no way to hide it from the US patrol. And if the U.S. military discovers his behavior of eating alone, it will obviously cause Colonel Malik to have a grudge against himself. This is not what Fang Lang wants to see. So, after three considerations, Fang Lang decided to take the initiative to explain to Colonel Malik that at worst he would share the copper price with him. Fang Lang, who hadn''t slept all night, drove directly to the US military base, and saw the refreshed Colonel Malik. Clearly, Colonel Malik was safe and happy. No longer have to worry about these equipment falling into your hands, or being found by the boss to hide Japanese assets. Sleeping with one hundred thousand dollars on his pillow, he really slept soundly. Looking at Fang Lang, whose face was full of oil, and whose spirit was obviously a little excited, he couldn''t help saying strangely: "Fang, what''s the matter, you, didn''t you sleep all night? Why, worry about this batch of equipment!" As he spoke, he stepped forward to pat Fang Lang on the arm and said: "Don''t worry! All the equipment will be installed on your ship before the boss''s personnel arrive. You don''t have to worry that the news about this factory won''t spread." Fang Lang noticed that when Colonel Malik said this, the cold light in his eyes flashed away. He couldn''t help feeling a chill in his heart, thinking that this old boy was going to kill him. But it''s wrong to think about it. After all, Fang Lang and him are considered accomplices. If they really want to be investigated, they are both guilty of the same crime. And Fang Lang didn''t feel any hostility from him. Then it means that the target he wants to silence is not himself, so who could it be? Without thinking too much, Fang Lang immediately understood his plan, and it was obvious that the workers in this factory might be in danger. Although this would be cruel, Fang Lang showed no mercy at all. This is a **** artillery factory, and the artillery produced does not know how much harm it has caused to the people of the hometown and the world, so Fang Lang can''t wait to help applaud. However, Fang Lang came here today not because of this incident, so he said directly: "Marik, why should I worry about what you are doing, I have seen the situation, and the shipment should be finished early this morning. After the cargo is on board, our ship will depart directly. When Mr. Meng arrives tomorrow morning, no trace will be left. " Marik also showed a satisfied smile, and said with a pun: "Yeah! Nothing will stay." "I came here today because I have some good news to share with you. My people just discovered a batch of Japanese copper rods. You have just provided a batch of equipment for making cannonballs, and equipment for making cannonballs will appear immediately. This is really the icing on the cake! Although these copper materials have not yet found a buyer, I inquired about the current copper price and estimated that the value of this batch of goods is at least 200,000. Dude, we''re going to get rich again. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 111: immigration issue Chapter 111 Immigration Issues Colonel Malik looked at Fang Lang in front of him in surprise, and felt a little moved. This is because he didn''t forget to bring himself when he got rich! Sure enough, he is a good brother. "Fang, why did you tell me this kind of thing? You can eat it yourself! I didn''t participate." After listening to Malik''s words, Fang Lang reached out and interrupted: "Brother, what are you talking about? When you have a good business, take me with you. If I have a good business, I will do it secretly. Do you think I am such a disloyal person?" Seeing what Malik wanted to say, Fang Lang interrupted directly: "I took advantage of you for the equipment of the gun factory this time. We will calculate the total value of this batch of copper materials at 250,000 yuan. You will share 150,000 yuan, and I will share 100,000 yuan." "Fang, listen to me, this is you." "Okay! It''s true that I''m too greedy, so let''s do this! You will share 200,000, and I will share 50,000. Okay." Just as Malik was about to decline, Fang Lang directly interrupted him by reaching out his hand, as if he understood that Malik was too little. This made Malik anxious. "Fang, listen to me, I don''t mean that. I mean, you discovered these things, and it has nothing to do with me, I can''t want them." But Fang Lang directly retorted: "What do you mean, what I found has nothing to do with you. You are my direct superior, the commander-in-chief of the Osaka occupation forces, what matters in Osaka have nothing to do with you! Besides, with the relationship between the two of us, if I find something good and dont share it with you, if it gets out, my reputation will be ruined! " Some people may wonder why Fang Lang must disclose this batch of copper materials to Malik. First of all, as the commander-in-chief of the Osaka occupation army, Fang Lang''s actions cannot be fooled by Malik. If Malik is dissatisfied, he will go to the door to investigate directly, or he will find something tricky. Secondly, these things are the wealth of the Sumitomo family. After the Sumitomo family finds out that the copper materials are missing, they will definitely investigate and look for them. Although, they certainly dare not tell the secret of the copper material. However, Fang Lang will definitely be found on Fang Lang''s head in the end. Although Fang Lang is not afraid, he will leave a very bad impression on the US military, and someone may come to pursue it. Finally, Fang Lang made it clear that he wanted to find a buyer to sell, which was equivalent to reporting to the U.S. military in advance and only making a difference. If the secret of this batch of copper is really discovered by the US military. Fang Lang said directly that he had already sold it. Although it is impossible to completely get rid of the suspicion, it is definitely not a deliberate concealment. This is not because Fang Lang is afraid of the U.S. military, but because he is in South America. It is too difficult for him to completely get rid of the influence of the Americans. At least on the bright side, Fang Lang must maintain a close relationship with the United States. Of course, if Fang Lang can become the emperor of Brazil, the Americans may be a little wary. However, there are some at most. According to the working style of the American world police, the most is, if you cant solve the trouble, then get rid of the person who caused the trouble. That''s why Fang Lang took the initiative to report this matter to Malik. As for how Malik will deal with it, it is not difficult to guess. For such a large artillery factory, he is enough to smooth it out for 100,000 yuan. Fang Lang believes that as long as the price is right, this batch of copper materials will not be a problem. Marik felt a little ashamed when he saw Fang Lang''s sincere eyes, and nodded after a while: "Okay! Fang, thank you for sharing, I accept. But I don''t want so much, I didn''t contribute much, just take three layers." Seeing Malik let go, Fang Lang breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to speak: "You are the officer, you get 70%, and I get three." Marik saw that Fang Lang''s expression was a little helpless, and he didn''t expect that one day he would push out the money delivered to him, but for a pure and good brother like Fang Lang, Malik finally felt that he would take a step back. "Fang, you have to remember that we are brothers, not superiors and subordinates. Therefore, I can accept half and half at most." Seeing that Malik had clearly made up his mind, Fang Lang stopped entangled in this matter. directly said: "Okay, then it''s settled. The current goods are still looking for a seller. However, your identity is more sensitive than mine. Let''s do this! I will directly calculate based on the current international copper price of 3514 US dollars per ton. The value of this batch is about 250,000 U.S. dollars, half of which is 125,000 U.S. dollars. I''ll send it to you when I get back. " Although Malik didn''t know what the current international copper price was, he also believed that Fang Lang would not lie to him about this kind of thing, so he waved his hand casually and said: "Okay, you can figure it out yourself, and you don''t need to send it right away. We still have plenty of time." Fang Lang said this, of course, that is to say, after all, the later time can prove the difficulty of raising money temporarily! Could it be that Fang Lang immediately took out more than 100,000 U.S. dollars from his body and gave it to him as soon as the deal was settled, then no matter who it is, it will be full of doubts! Besides, there is one more place later, not so important to go to, and it happens to be reported when the money is sent later. "Okay, then I will go back to raise money first, and I will take you to see the fineness of this batch of copper materials." As he said that, he was going to take Malik to the scene to see the situation. Of course, this is just Fang Lang''s routine, and of course he doesn''t want Malik to watch it live. It wasnt that he was afraid that he would see the abnormality of the copper rod, but that he found that the basement was so big that only the copper rod was abnormal. Told him that he was going to raise money, and said that he would take him to see copper materials. With Malik''s character, it must be more important to raise money for him earlier than to see some copper materials! After all, the boss of the League is coming soon. Sure enough, Malik waved his hand directly and said: "Go and do your work! What''s so good about copper." Seeing his attitude, Fang Lang remained calm, and said in a hurry: "Okay then! I''ll raise money first, and I''ll come to you when I get the money." After finishing speaking, he left the U.S. military base in a car. Fang Lang, who left the US military camp, did not go back to rest. Instead, he drove to the pier and saw a busy scene on the pier. Many Japanese are working as stevedores on the dock. The soldiers of the expeditionary force are monitoring the situation at the scene. As for why the Japanese were recruited to load and unload, this is also a helpless move. After all, the time is tight and the tasks are heavy. With these people from the Brazilian Expeditionary Force alone, it is impossible to finish loading and unloading all the things in half a month. It just so happens that the Japanese cant even provide basic food and clothing, and two meals can recruit a lot of people. Everything is sealed in wooden boxes, and Fang Lang is not afraid that they will find anything unusual. It is a routine operation for the occupying army to dismantle machinery and equipment, so what if they know it? Fang Lang quickly found his father at the pier, asked about the loading of the goods, and emphasized not to put all the eggs in the same basket. As a result, Fang Lang had just finished talking about the issue of cargo loading, but his father Fang Xinshan handed him a telegram, saying that Fang Xinshui had sent it from Shanghai. Fang Xinshui is now the general manager of a Brazilian labor dispatch company, and he is responsible for all immigration work. This business was originally negotiated by him and Hongmen. Therefore, it is logical for him to carry out the specific tasks. Fang Lang took the telegram casually, looked at it and began to frown unconsciously. It turned out that Fang Xinshui discovered that many of the immigrants being sent to them were Japanese, and were sent to the immigration ship by the local gang as Chinese. At the beginning, because these people can also use simple Chinese, unexpectedly, they were not discovered. It was discovered that these Japanese and Chinese clashed on the ship. He was clear about the real purpose of this so-called labor dispatch, but in the end, he was swayed by the local gang, and he was very angry. Almost exchanged fire with local gangs, but fortunately, everyone endured it for the sake of long-term business. Overseas Hongmen came forward to negotiate peace and sent all the Japanese back. However, after learning a lesson, Fang Xinshui started to be extra careful after he got into trouble, and conducted a detailed background check on every immigrant who boarded the ship. As a result, its okay not to investigate, but the problem was discovered after investigation. The Chinese who want to go out to work are mostly composed of traitors. This made Fang Xinshui somewhat at a loss as to what to do with it, whether to accept it or not to accept it. So, simply sent a telegram to Fang Xinshan, letting Fang Xinshan and Fang Lang decide. Fang Lang glanced at his father and said: "Father, what do you think of this matter?" Fang Xinshan frowned, stared, and said directly: "What''s there to say, definitely don''t! These people have no nationality at all, only their own interests, and they are all a group of selfish and shameless villains. If we go to Brazil, we will directly rely on those white people and sell our own interests to the Chinese, and we will have nowhere to cry. " Seeing his father''s resentful expression, Fang Lang couldn''t help but go up and pat him on the back, and comforted him: "Father, calm down and don''t get excited. We can''t get mad at ourselves for the sake of irrelevant people." "Let me tell you, we are determined not to bring these traitors back to Brazil. I would rather have fewer Chinese, and I don''t want to have more bastards. I''ve heard that these **** are worse than devils. There are more common people harmed by them than devils. " Fang Lang knew very well that what Fang Xinshan said was true. Actually speaking, Fang Lang knows the situation of the traitors better than Fang Xinshan. After all, the history of later generations has liquidated these people. In later generations, some people will spout everywhere, saying that "China is the only country in the world that has several times more puppet troops than the invaders during World War II. It can be seen that the Chinese people are slavish." This statement is definitely wrong. According to the detailed statistics of later generations of experts, the total number of Japanese invaders was about 2.9 million, while the number of puppet troops was 2.64 million. It can be seen from here that the number of puppet troops is obviously not as large as that of the Japanese army. You can check this data by yourself. Of course, many people would say that 2.64 million people is not a small number! Students who understand history actually know that the biggest part of these people is actually involuntary. Before the traitor Wang surrendered, the puppet army numbered 780,000, mainly from prisoners of war. Many are soldiers who shed blood for the country, but some officials are greedy for life and fear of death, so they directly ordered to surrender. Being a traitor is not the subjective will of these people, which can be clearly seen from the combat effectiveness of the puppet army. Most of the puppet troops even shot into the sky when fighting. As for the puppet army brought over by the traitor Wang Da, the situation is basically the same. Actually, the most fundamental reason for this situation is that the people in this period were basically illiterate, and their national consciousness had just begun to awaken. These can be learned and educated to make them change their minds. Of course, Fang Lang would not be polite to those traitors who took the initiative to seek refuge with the Japanese and bear blood debts. (end of this chapter) Chapter 112: Japanese magic farce Chapter 112 Japanese-born magical farce Fang Xinshan looked at Fang Lang with a pensive expression, couldn''t help feeling anxious, and hurriedly said: "Lang''er, you can''t be confused!" Fang Lang looked at Fang Xinshan and smiled: "Father, don''t worry! I''m thinking about how to squeeze the money out of the traitors! Some big traitors are worth a lot of money! Don''t think about the crimes they committed in their hometown." In Fang Lang''s impression, the real big traitors are all wealthy, but with the urine of the government, these people''s wealth should have been drained long ago. Some big traitors had already reached deals with state officials long before the devils surrendered, and they turned into state officials. It''s not Fang Lang''s turn to pick up the leaks. Most of the so-called traitors who are sold as piglets should be small traitors who are attached to the big traitors. After thinking about it again and again, Fang Lang still felt that he couldn''t beat people to death with a stick. After distinguishing these people, they should be treated according to different policies. He therefore laid down three principles, First, all the big traitors who are responsible for the **** crimes will all confiscate all their property and sink into the sea. Second, if there is no **** case and the traitors whose property comes from improper sources, all their property will be confiscated and sent to Brazil for ten to twenty years of labor reform. Thirdly, there was no massacre, no property, just ordinary people who were vassals of traitors, transported to Brazil and then reformed through labor for three to five years. As for the ideological education work during the labor reform period, we will also be unremitting, and we must make everyone aware of the unforgivable crimes they committed against the country and the nation. Let them live with the attitude of redemption and become a teaching material for other people. Let everyone understand that as long as you do something that is sorry for the country and the nation, even if you go abroad, you will not be able to escape punishment. Further strengthen the sense of national identity of immigrants. After Fang Lang expressed his thoughts, Fang Xinshan thought for a long time before agreeing, and called Fang Xinshui back. In the process of returning to the station from the dock, Fang Lang was still thinking in his heart that most of these puppet soldiers were recruited by the national army. These national troops will not be sent over directly in batches! Then the number of the national army will be significantly reduced! Will my immigration actions indirectly accelerate the demise of the government? But Fang Lang doesn''t want to accept too many traitors, and when the time comes, the entire Brazilian Chinese will become traitors and dominate, so what a fart! Thinking about it, Fang Lang felt that priority should be given to building schools among immigrants. While training everyone''s work skills, they should also firmly grasp everyone''s ideological trends and strengthen everyone''s national consciousness. There must be no more creatures like traitors. Of course, Fang Lang also knew that he could not completely eliminate it. However, in Brazil, an environment where people are unfamiliar with the place and the language is difficult, it is actually very suitable for Fang Lang to carry out ideological education. Fang Lang, who returned to the station, didn''t have time to rest. He had to hurry up and transport away the wealth. At the same time, he must also pay close attention to the political situation in Brazil. After all, he knows that the time for a new presidential election is coming soon. The current Brazilian President Vargas is a dictator who came to power through a coup. Although he is also learning American-style democracy, he can only be chosen for democratic elections. It''s a pity that he overestimated his status in the hearts of the Brazilian people. As soon as the election started, the situation began to get out of his control. Seeing that the situation was not right, President Vargas began to use his power to manipulate the election, trying to let his newly formed Labor Party win directly. This behavior immediately aroused dissatisfaction among other parties in the country, and also aroused the dissatisfaction of the expeditionary soldiers who had just withdrawn from Italy to Brazil. After all, these fighters have been trained in the United States for two years, but they have accepted American-style democratic ideas. The next thing happened naturally. Of course, these things are learned by Fang Lang during the process of maintaining communication with friends in Brazil during this period of time. Fang Lang, who came from later generations, knew that President Vargas would be overthrown by the army in October, but he didn''t know the exact time and reason. However, when he was in the expeditionary army, he had already seen clues from some things in the army. In the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, which President Vargas resisted and personally formed, the trusted figures of President Vargas are gradually marginalized. It can be seen that the Brazilian Expeditionary Force is no longer the expeditionary force that was loyal to President Vargas. up. With Fang Lang''s current status, he couldn''t help but pay attention to the domestic political situation at all times. Today, he finally got a name from Colonel Tici at the Rio de Janeiro Naval BaseEurico Gaspar Dutra. Brazilian Expeditionary Force Minister of the Army, currently also the rank of major general. Recently, the Brazilian Social Democratic Party and the Brazilian Labor Party began to contact General Dutra frequently because of the obstruction of democratic elections. Judging from what Fang Lang has collected so far, this person should be the one who launched a coup and overthrew Vargas. I don''t know whether President Vargas is overconfident or does not pay enough attention to intelligence work. Now even Fang Lang, who is on an expedition to Japan, has already seen the tension in the political situation. While Vargas on the presidential throne is still confident that he can really manipulate the election and continue to be re-elected. It can only be said that the consecutive years of re-election and the specially issued constitution in order to maintain the dictatorship have indeed paralyzed Vargas'' nerves. These things are actually not surprising to Fang Lang. After all, he knows the history. What really surprised Fang Lang was the news about Japanese immigrants in Brazil that Colonel Tiqi revealed to Fang Lang. Fang Lang destroyed a Japanese spy organization in Sao Paulo, which is well known to almost all of Fang Lang''s friends. As Fang Lang''s friends, everyone has generally begun to take an attitude of scrutiny and embarrassment towards Japanese-Brazilians. Especially after the expeditionary force participated in the Pacific battlefield, Brazil, especially the military, began to be wary of Japanese-Brazilians. Colonel Teach was also focusing on the trend of Japanese descent in Rio de Janeiro. As a result, after Japan announced its surrender, Colonel Teach discovered that the Japanese newspapers in Brazil had published several very dreamy news for several days in a row. Fang Lang now thinks of Colonel Teach''s teasing tone, and he still can''t laugh or cry: "Hey Fang, did you know! The Japanese newspapers in Brazil published several heavyweight news, do you want to read them. I have newspapers here!" Fang Lang didn''t understand what heavyweight news could be in Japan at this time, so he couldn''t help asking curiously: "Oh! I''m in Japan now! I haven''t heard of any heavy news!" As a result, Colonel Teach burst into laughter and couldn''t stop at all. Fang Lang was afraid that she would laugh out loud, and it took a while to hear Colonel Tiqi say: "Don''t you know? The Japanese newspaper in Brazil said that "Japan used an atomic bomb with amazing destructive power to wipe out the British and American coalition forces", "The Japanese Atomic Bomb Strikes the Continent of the United States, Causing More than 30 Million American Casualties", "The Soviet Union and China surrendered unconditionally, MacArthur became a prisoner, Japan occupied Hawaii, the United States surrendered, and the president was appointed by the Japanese", This is big news! Are you not in Japan? You don''t even know this? " Such news can be regarded as refreshing Fang Lang''s three views, it feels like a fantasy, incredible. He wondered if Colonel Teach was joking with himself. "Are you serious? Do you want to switch to writing novels?" "Haha Fang, I don''t have such an imagination. These are all published in these Japanese newspapers. If you don''t believe me, I will send you some newspapers." Hearing Colonel Teach''s swearing tone, Fang Lang had to believe it if he didn''t believe it. "Then how does the government deal with it?" "How else can we deal with it? Seal up the newspapers and arrest the rumormongers. But these Japanese people believe them even more, and even think that we are making false propaganda to deliberately discourage their fighting spirit. They even organized a grand celebration. It made me suspect that the news of Japan''s surrender I received was fake. If it weren''t for you, I would have believed them if I was in Japan now. " This can be regarded as full of magicalism. But Fang Lang knew it in his heart. Actually, the Japanese in Brazil cannot be blamed for this, it has something to do with their living environment in Brazil. Except for a few wealthy people who owned plantations, most of the Japanese immigrants were farm laborers or engaged in low-level jobs such as laundry. Most of them did not understand Portuguese, and they hardly communicated with the locals in Brazil. contacted object. As Brazil joined the camp of the Allied Powers, Japan withdrew all its diplomats including the Brazilian ambassador Inotaro Ishisa and the resident employees of Japanese companies. The Brazilian government also began to restrict the activities of Brazilian Japanese, and even forced the Japanese to use Portuguese. The Japanese expats in Brazil have almost lost contact with the mainland, and the Japanese who know nothing about the local news feel a sense of isolation from the world. The Japanese began to gather together to keep warm, especially after the Sao Paulo city government adopted a series of blockade measures because they suspected that the Japanese were engaged in espionage, which made the collective spirit of Japanese people panic. At this time, the only source for them to get news is Japanese newspapers, and they dont understand Portuguese. Most of them live in two different worlds in the same country as ordinary Brazilians. The Japanese newspaper told them that Japan had won, and they took it for granted and started crazy celebrations. There are even some fanatics who began to advocate and ask the Japanese in Brazil to take the initiative to contribute to their motherland and provide help. Therefore, in July 1945, Japanese descendants in Brazil established a ministerial alliance to "support the Japanese war and insist that the war must be won." Membership soon grew to nearly 120,000 people. Almost all the Japanese joined in, which made the Brazilian government very vigilant. Major Blackwell''s intelligence agency is now focusing on these crazy Japanese. And Fang Lang learned more from Major Blackwell. According to Major Blackwell''s information, the current Japanese Chendao Alliance has diverged and has begun to attack each other. The reason for the disagreement is naturally that some Portuguese-speaking Japanese learned from Brazilian newspapers and radio stations that Japan had actually surrendered. And these people, spreading this news among Japanese descendants, naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of the Chendao Alliance who insisted that Japan must win. Therefore, the Chendao Alliance quickly split into a winner''s group and a loser''s group. Historically, because the Japanese descendants in Brazil belonged to different groups, conflicts continued, and there were many terrorist attacks among each other, and casualties occurred from time to time. Until 1973, the three Japanese immigrants who were called the "final winners" by the Brazilian media took a plane and returned to Japan after decades of absence. Looking at Japan, which is in a period of high economic development and looking far ahead, is extremely prosperous, they said to the large number of reporters who came to watch: "Look, Japan is so prosperous, we obviously won the battle." This farce is completely over. Regarding the fantasy operation of the Japanese in Brazil, it is true in history. Friends who are interested can look up relevant historical materials. If I talk too much, readers will blame me for my word count. Not to mention it will affect the later plot development, so readers please forgive me. (end of this chapter) Chapter 113: Shiroyu Brewery Chapter 113 Baihe Brewery Fang Lang didn''t care about the farce staged by Brazilian Japanese in Brazil. He even gloated a little and wanted to add fuel to the fire. Wait for Fang Lang to finish handling the affairs at hand at the station. It was completely dark, Fang Lang took the agreed $125,000 again, and went to the US military station to look for Colonel Malik, but he couldn''t find it. Later, I found out through the car radio that Colonel Malik was preparing to finish in the underground arsenal. Fang Lang was not polite, and drove directly to visit. When Fang Lang arrived, he saw American soldiers driving a group of Japanese workers into the underground factory. From time to time, Japanese workers resisted and were knocked down by American soldiers. Fang Lang found Malik who was leaning on the jeep and smoking a cigar, and casually hung the package in Malik''s hand and said: "Have all my things been moved?" Malik looked at the package Fang Lang stuffed in his hand, raised his eyebrows and said: "I''ll take care of things, don''t worry! Things have just been moved, and the rest of these people are useless." Glancing at the workers who were being driven away, Fang Lang also took out a cigar, sniffed it under his nose, and said casually: "The person I want is still there!" Marik knew that what Fang Lang said was that he promised to provide Fang Lang with the workers needed to reinstall the equipment and complete the production. "Don''t worry! The people you want are not these ordinary workers. Those people are engineers, and they are locked up in the cell at the station! After dealing with this place, arrange someone to **** them to you." Actually, Fang Lang is not worried about this problem. Even without these people, he can pay for talents in European and American countries who can restart the production line. He just didn''t want to be so troublesome, and he didn''t want too many people to know that this production line was taken away by him. Fang Lang trimmed the cigars neatly with a cigar cutter, and raised his chin at the driven workers and said: "What about these people! Do you need my help?" After Colonel Malik smiled and shook his head to express his refusal, he asked curiously: "Oh! What do you want to do with it?" Seeing Colonel Malik''s curious eyes, Fang Lang didn''t take it seriously and said: "Isn''t this simple? If you are not afraid of the noise, just use a few M2 heavy machine guns, and it will be solved after a while. If you don''t want to have gunshots, put some napalm bombs inside, detonate the door lock, and it will be quiet soon." Unexpectedly, Colonel Malik said with a look of disgust: "Fang, you are so cruel, we are a civilized army, how can we treat civilians like this!" Fang Lang didn''t expect that he would be disgusted, so he didn''t take it seriously. He picked up the lit cigar, took a big puff, and exhaled the smoke lightly before saying: "Oh! Are you going to keep them? Aren''t you afraid that they will reveal the news here?" Colonel Malik looked at the casual Fang Lang, and it was obvious that both of them were tacit. Looked at the gate of the underground factory that had been closed by American soldiers and smiled before saying: "Okay, a landslide is about to happen here, let''s stay away." After finishing speaking, he patted Fang Lang on the shoulder and motioned him to get in the car with him. Fang Lang naturally didn''t care, he smiled with an expression of admiration, and gave Colonel Malik a thumbs up. The two of them understood each other, and stopped talking. The jeep drove forward about 200 meters and stopped. Only hearing a muffled bang from behind, Fang Lang felt like lighting firecrackers when he was a child and throwing them into a mouse hole made a similar sound, but the sound was countless times louder. Fang Lang could clearly see that the entire ground seemed to be thrown up, then pulled down by the gravity of the earth, and then the sky was full of dust. gave Malik a thumbs up again and said: "Dude, how much explosives did you put! It''s almost causing an earthquake." Malik smiled mysteriously; "I didn''t bring explosives. We are here to carry out the occupation mission, not to destroy." Looking at what this means, the Japanese still use their own explosives. Fang Lang no longer paid attention to this place, and said directly: "My people found a winery with a lot of good wine. Would you like to go and have a look together?" Malik looked at Fang Lang with disgust and said: "I said Fang, how good Japanese wine can be, it''s not strong enough at all. If you want to drink, you can drink whiskey. Where can I get it? After I finish this, let''s go to my office to have a drink and celebrate by the way." "Isn''t it finished here yet? What else should I do?" "Haha. You don''t understand this! The factory is collapsed, but the traces are too new. We need to use napalm and bake it to make it look like it was bombed by planes, do you understand?" "You still have napalm bombs. Isn''t this thing dropped by an airplane?" "It''s fine to modify it with a mortar!" Fang Lang never thought that there would be such a windfall. After coming to Japan, Fang Lang has always had a target to attack, but he has never thought of a suitable way. Unexpectedly, I encountered napalm bombs that can be fired with mortars at Malik today, so what else can I say, I must find a way to get a batch of them. "Dude, what caliber is the napalm for this mortar of yours, can you get me some?" "81MM caliber mortar shells, how much do you want?" Malik didn''t care. Obviously, with Fang Lang''s relationship with him, providing some mortar shells is simply not a matter. "Four to five hundred shots!" The numbers reported by Fang Lang startled Malik. "Why do you want so much?" Fang Lang didn''t answer this question directly but said: "I want fifty 81mm mortars and five hundred napalm rounds, can you help me get them?" Seeing that Fang Lang didn''t answer his question, Malik understood that these things must not be used on the bright side. After thinking about it, Malik said directly: "I have confiscated Japanese Type 97 mortars in my hand. Fifty of them are no problem. The caliber is 81MM, and the ammunition is the same as the American one." Fang Lang didn''t wait for Malik to continue, and said directly: "I want five thousand dollars. However, this matter needs to be kept secret." Colonel Malik obviously hesitated, and it took him a long time to bite the bullet and say: "Fang, you wouldn''t let him kill MacArthur, would you?" Hearing Malik''s words, Fang Lang almost choked to death with a puff of cigarette. Just when Fang Lang was about to say something, the American soldiers not far away had begun to pour shells at the factory site where the dust had not yet fallen. "" greeted the overwhelming sound of mortar firing, but the sound of bomb explosion was very dull. But the burning effect of the napalm bomb was visible to the naked eye, and the entire ground began to ignite raging fire almost instantly. The dominance of napalm bombs is unreasonable. No matter whether the ground is dirt, trees, or steel, as long as it is stuck to the place where the napalm bomb is attached, it can burn regardless of whether there is any combustible material. It is said that he can generate a high temperature of 1000 degrees, stick to objects and burn for a long time. It turned out that Fang Lang didn''t quite understand why this weapon was banned later, but now seeing the scene in front of him, Fang Lang finally understood. Finally, the sound of the mortars stopped. Fang Lang looked at the purgatory-like scene in front of him. Instead of feeling scared, his eyes glowed, and he confirmed his eyes. This is what he wanted. Turning to look at Malik, about to answer his question. As a result, Malik spoke first: "Okay, Fang, I don''t care where you use it! You don''t have to answer my questions, and don''t give me money. I will arrange two trucks to deliver what you want to your barracks later. I just lost the shell, I don''t know and don''t want to know anything else. " Fang Lang looked at Malik playfully, what does this mean? Do you want me to kill MacArthur or not! However, since Malik said that he didn''t want to know anything, and took the initiative to distance himself from the relationship, it would be best for Fang Lang. Fang Lang smiled and nodded to Malik and said: "Okay! Then I won''t be polite. Now that things here are over, shall we go to the winery that my people discovered!" Seeing that Fang Lang wanted to invite him to the winery again, Malik refused without thinking; "What''s so interesting about the Japanese winery, let''s go to my office for a drink." Fang Lang shook his head with a smile and said: "I don''t want to drink, I want to get rich. Alcohol can be sold for money, don''t you know that the older the wine is, the more valuable it is?" Marik looked at Fang Lang speechlessly and said: "Brother, you are too hungry. How much can you buy Japanese sake? I am not interested! Go to the winery with you, I might as well go back and accompany the girl the Japanese gave me!" "I said man, don''t regret it if you don''t go!" "I see, did these **** Japanese dwarves not arrange girls for you! You are so bored, why do you want to go to see some ghost winery at night?" Fang Lang could only shake his head helplessly when he heard Malik''s words. He originally wanted to bring Malik to make a small fortune. However, since others have repeatedly refused, there is no need to force it. As for the Japanese girl Malik mentioned, this is indeed a comfort policy of the Japanese government, and ordinary soldiers have comfort stations. The officers can''t line up with the soldiers! So, the Japanese began to take the initiative to arrange two to three Japanese women to take care of daily life for each American field officer. As for Fang Lang, I don''t know if it is because the Japanese look down on the identity of the Brazilian expeditionary force, or because of the identity of the Chinese. Anyway, Fang Lang was missed when assigning girls. Fang Lang doesn''t mind either. After all, he can''t let others know what he is doing. When the time comes, the woman sent over is a Japanese spy, and it will be a big trouble. "I still like to find Japanese girls by myself. Since your brother doesn''t like this little money, I''ll send you two cars tomorrow morning. You can figure it out yourself!" After speaking, he jumped off Malik''s jeep. Got into his car, and said to the driver: "Go to Baihe Distillery." (end of this chapter) Chapter 114: Tennoji Chapter 114 Tennoji The so-called Hakutsuru Brewery is actually a brewery with a brand name of Hakuzuru. This brewery is not actually in Osaka City, but is located in Kobe City next to Osaka. It is no more than fifteen kilometers away from the station of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. Fang Lang''s eye is naturally not the winery of Baihe Wine. Fang Lang, who came from later generations, once visited a place called Baihe Art Museum, which was established in 1934 and is a very small art museum. And what Fang Lang is interested in is obviously not how many paintings are in the museum, but those Chinese bronzes and porcelains that are completely unrelated to the name of the so-called museum. Compared to the huge number of other museums, the Baihe Museum can only be regarded as a pediatrics, but it is this humble small art museum that houses these two Chinese antiques, which are called national treasures by the Japanese. When Fang Lang visited this museum, he was disgusted by the brazen behavior of the Japanese, but he was helpless. However, now God has given me this opportunity, of course I can''t let it go. So why didn''t Fang Lang go directly to Baihe Art Museum but to Baihe Winery? The reason is also very simple. The Hakutsuru Art Museum was founded by the 7th generation Kano Jihei of Hakutsuru Brewery, and with the defeat of Japan, the Americans are about to land and become the occupying army. Anyone with a bit of a brain will definitely transfer these important cultural relics. Fang Lang doesn''t know where Kanojibei will transfer these treasures, but it doesn''t matter if he doesn''t know, as long as someone knows. As for why Fang Lang generously brought Colonel Malik with him, it was because this art gallery didn''t have many collections. Fang Lang''s goal was only the middle Chinese antiques. As for the others, he would divide them with Malik. Feel distressed. So, Fang Lang directly surrounded the Baihe Brewery, which is known as the number one brand of Japanese sake. When Fang Lang came to Baihe Distillery, the adjutant Qi Qingshan was already waiting at the door. Before Fang Lang got off the car, Qi Qingshan came forward and said: "Boss, the interrogation has already been carried out. Kano Jihei is neither at the winery nor at his home. He has been at Tennoji Temple for more than a year." "Eat fast and recite the Buddha? What kind of joke are there still people in the Kano family who eat fast and recite the Buddha?" Don''t say whether others will eat fast and chant Buddha, Fang Lang doesn''t know, but the people of the Jiana family can eat fast and chant Buddha, Fang Lang really doesn''t believe it. Kano Jihei is not a very famous person, and Fang Lang doesn''t know him well, but Fang Lang has heard of his brother Kano Jigoro. If you say this name, someone who knows Japanese judo, You should have heard of it. Jigoro Kano is the founder of modern Judo, known as the "Father of Judo". Jigoro Kano is also very famous in Brazil, because his apprentice Maeda Mitsuyo brought judo to Brazil and accepted several sons of his good friend Castor Gracie as apprentices. The world-famous Gracie Jiu-Jitsu originated from this. At the same time, the Kano family is actually a member of the important Kansai chaebol in Japan-the Kano chaebol. It''s just that this chaebol is not very famous in later generations, so most people have never heard of it. Qi Qingshan also said with a strange expression: "It is said that it is Kano Jibei, who felt that the Japanese army had brought great harm to the Asian people, so he took the initiative to go to Japan''s largest Buddhist temple, Tennoji Temple, to pray for the Asian people." Fang Lang heard this, and unconsciously ten thousand grass and mud horses galloped by. At this time, the Japanese temples all supported the Japanese aggression. There are even many monks joining the army, many Japanese soldiers will have Japanese monks to bless them before enlisting. You said to pray to the Japanese soldiers, Fang Lang believed it, but you said to pray to the Asian people, you are fooling. Suddenly, it seemed as if a lightning had struck Fang Lang, and a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, Fang Lang hurriedly said: "What temple did you just say?" Qi Qingshan heard Fang Lang''s question, and replied directly: "Tennoji Temple." When Fang Lang heard the name, he suddenly slapped his forehead, cursed in his heart, and almost picked up sesame seeds and lost the watermelon. Why did I forget about this famous Tennoji Temple! "Everyone gather, surround this Tianwang Temple for Lao Tzu, and imprison all the people. If they encounter resistance, they will be killed." Give an order, and all the personnel will start to assemble immediately, when everyone boards the car again. Fang Lang winked at Qi Qingshan, and set off with the convoy. As for Qi Qingshan, he led the soldiers of the guard platoon back to Baihe Distillery knowingly. When Qi Qingshan and others caught up with the convoy, Fang Lang casually glanced at the flames rising into the sky in the distance, and said nothing. Osakas Tennoji Temple is located at the southern gate of Osaka. Later generations built Tennoji Park, and the Osaka Art Museum and Shitennoji Temple are located together. There are many treasures in the temple, and even the Bingzi Jiaolin Sword of the Sui Dynasty was enshrined as a national treasure by the Japanese. It is said that the sword is actually a Sui straight sword (or ring head) cast in a place called Jiaolin in the year of Bingzi. Knife). Tennoji Temple is very large. In order to block it, the expeditionary force almost came out with all their strength. Fang Lang stayed at the gate of Tianwang Temple and didn''t go in immediately. Instead, he waited quietly until the temple was completely surrounded, and then waved his hand unhurriedly. Because it is already midnight and the surrounding area is pitch black. The movement of the expeditionary military convoy surrounding Tennoji still woke up the monks in the room. Before the soldiers of the expeditionary army stepped forward and smashed the door, two monks opened the gate of the temple. Looking at the densely packed soldiers outside the temple, they were obviously terrified. Now that the door has been opened, there is no need to be polite, and the soldiers began to rush inside without Fang Lang''s command. The two monks who opened the door put their hands together, ready to ask the soldiers why they came. It''s a pity that the soldiers didn''t give them a chance to speak at all, and just smashed the **** of their guns, ignoring the shouts of the monks. Anyway, they couldn''t understand what they were calling, and the order they received was to detain all the people inside. Fang Lang was very satisfied watching the behavior of the soldiers, because Fang Lang had watched too many movies, and before doing anything in them, the two sides had to talk harshly for a long time, or fight for a long time. He doesn''t have time to talk nonsense with these people here, making it look like he''s the villain. Of course, in the eyes of the Japanese at the moment, he is indeed a villain, but Fang Lang himself never feels that way. As the incarnation of justice, how can he be regarded as a villain by representing justice to collect a little interest from evil? The chaos in the monastery did not last long, because there were not many monks in the monastery at this time. After all, during the war, Japan had insufficient soldiers, so how could the government allow so many adult men to continue to eat fast and chant Buddha in temples? Fang Lang took square steps, with a cigar in his mouth, and surrounded by a platoon of guards, he walked slowly into this very famous temple in Japan. I don''t know why, Fang Lang felt that at this time, the BGM that should be accompanied by the God of Gamblers appeared more imposing. Soon, Fang Lang came to the room where the monks were detained by the soldiers. At a glance, I found that there were only about forty monks, while there were more than twenty other people, including five or six Japanese girls in kimonos. Seeing this situation, Fang Lang couldn''t help being amused. Looking like the Japanese translator beside him said: "What''s the situation, can you still stay women in Japanese temples? Is this practicing Huanxi Zen?" When the interpreter next to him heard it, Fang Lang rarely took the initiative to ask him questions today. This is really a blessing from heaven! Hastily said flatteringly: "Mr. Colonel, the villain has just learned that these female relatives came to seek refuge with their families, and the gentlemen and ladies hiding here are all prominent nobles in Osaka City. If Mr. Colonel wants to experience our Japanese Joy Zen, please leave it to me, and tonight I will persuade these noble ladies to join you in Zen enlightenment. It will be their pleasure. " Fang Lang didn''t expect that this devil''s translator would be so good, he couldn''t help but patted him on the shoulder very satisfied and said: "Suoga! You are very good. When you finish dealing with things here, ask them to come over. I will pick two beautiful ones, and come and practice Japanese Joy Zen with me. Now, first bring me the host here. " The ghost translator heard Fang Lang''s praise, and was overjoyed. He hurriedly bowed at ninety degrees, said "Hi!", and turned around to face the crowd. Soon, an old monk wearing a gorgeous black monk robe came out, and Fang Lang could tell from the old spots on his face that the presiding monk was at least seventy years old. I saw the host old monk put his hands together and babbled at Fang Lang, but it was a pity that Fang Lang could not speak Japanese. But looking at the old monk''s expression, it was obvious that he was questioning Fang Lang''s purpose for breaking into the temple in the middle of the night. The ghost translator was about to translate, but was interrupted by Fang Lang waving his hand. He was not interested in listening to what this old Japanese monk said! Now this is his territory, he must be in charge! Only others listen to him, when is it someone else''s turn to ask him what he is going to do. Since we know that it is the leader of these monks, it will be fine. Fang Lang translated directly to the devil: "Tell this old monk that I don''t have time to talk nonsense with him here. Let him take me to the treasure room in the temple. If I say one more nonsense, I will drag a person out and die." Guizi Translator''s eyes jumped when he heard Fang Lang''s words. He didn''t expect this officer to be so simple and rude. Hastily turned his head to the old monk and babbled. The old monk''s face was livid after hearing this, and he just babbled to the translator. After listening to the interpreter, Fang Lang looked a little anxious and said: "Mr. Colonel, the host said that this behavior of your army is unacceptable." Fang Lang glanced at the translator and knew that the old monk must not have said it so politely. Because although Fang Lang couldn''t understand what the old monk said specifically, he knew from the tone and body language of the old monk that the old monk didn''t say anything good. (end of this chapter) Chapter 115: Bingzijiao Linjian Chapter 115 Bingzi Jiaolin Sword Fang Lang had expected this old monk''s performance, smiled indifferently, and asked the translator: "What did he just say?" The translator was taken aback by the question, his face was a little nervous, and he slowly stretched out two fingers. Fang Lang doesn''t care whether the translator''s answer is true or not, since he stretched out two fingers, Fang Lang should treat it as two sentences. In this case, all the Japanese looked at the **** stretched out by the translator, and then Fang Lang said to his back: "Since our host has said two nonsense, let''s drag two people out!" Soon four soldiers stepped forward and dragged two monks from the crowd. Let the two monks kneel facing the wall, and without any nonsense, they directly took out their pistols and "bang bang" twice. There was a sudden chaos in the room, and the screams of the women almost burst Fang Lang''s eardrums. All the soldiers around raised their guns, facing the black muzzle, everyone quickly learned to shut up. Fang Lang even saw a few Japanese women desperately covering their mouths with their hands to prevent themselves from making a sound, but their bodies were shaking uncontrollably. Seeing everyone quiet down, Fang Lang said to the translator again: "Ask again, please tell this host, two people will be dragged out this time if you say nonsense." The translator''s eyes were a little dodgy at this time, and he felt that the person standing in front of him was a devil. However, he dared not refuse the devil''s request. With a slightly trembling voice, he turned to the presiding old monk again, murmuring. This time the old monk learned his lesson, he closed his eyes, clasped his hands, and stood there quietly, with the air of a generous death. Seeing the scene in front of him, Fang Lang unconsciously felt that the old monk opposite was the embodiment of justice, but he was a heinous robber. If it is a person whose mind is not firm enough, he may really be defeated at this time. Unfortunately, Fang Lang is a person who has not only received historical education in modern society. It is even a soldier of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force who was bullied by Japanese in Brazil. I am used to seeing soldiers who live and die, and I dont have any compassion for these groups with vested interests in the Japanese war of aggression against China. These people here are actually no less guilty than soldiers on the battlefield. First of all, the so-called aristocrats hiding here are the behind-the-scenes forces who launched this war, and they are also the vested interest class that can grab the fruits of victory behind without risking their lives in the war. And these monks are the culprits who sent some Japanese young people to the battlefield with a few words of blessing and a talisman. Compared to what the devils did in his hometown, Fang Lang felt that he was simply a gentleman. Since he has the opportunity to avenge the people in his hometown, he will never be soft, let alone choose to forgive the dead on his own initiative. Fang Lang believes in blood for blood, tooth for tooth. Some time ago, Fang Lang had been hiding behind to encourage the soldiers of the expeditionary army, so he didn''t need to be too restrained. However, as time went by, Fang Lang knew that everyone would be recalled to Brazil soon. The political storm in Brazil is about to erupt soon, and Fang Lang himself hopes to return to Brazil to stabilize the situation and protect his family. Therefore, he must hurry up and complete all the things he wants to accomplish in Japan. Fang Lang glanced at the old monk who seemed to be exuding divine brilliance, smiled and said: "Since Mr. Host chooses to remain silent, let''s kill them all, let''s go find them ourselves!" After finishing speaking, they were about to turn around and leave. When the soldiers heard Fang Lang''s words, they pulled the bolt and were ready to shoot. The interpreter beside him was so frightened that he knelt on the ground and kowtowed: "Mr. Colonel, please give me a chance, I will be able to convince them." Fang Lang glanced at the translation with a little deep meaning, what does it mean, this is wanting to be a hero! But Fang Lang didn''t mind fulfilling him, after all, he said that he would help him arrange to practice Joy Zen, and Fang Lang wanted to give him a little face for this kind of considerate service. Looking at the translator kneeling on the ground, Fang Lang said coldly: "You have a minute." After speaking, he walked out of the room without looking back, and said to the platoon leader of the expeditionary force who was guarding the Japanese: "After a minute, if no one is willing to come out and lead the way, kill them all." The platoon leader said without hesitation: "Yes, sir!" Actually, sometimes Fang Lang felt that Brazilian soldiers were still very useful. Maybe because most of the soldiers have little culture. And Brazil has a short history, jumping directly from a colonial society close to a slave society to a capitalist society. Most of the people at the bottom still have some residual feudal ideology, so the soldiers at the bottom are very obedient, and the orders issued by the soldiers are carried out without compromise. So, Brazil in this era is actually very easy to form a warlord, and what Fang Lang is doing now is basically equivalent to a small warlord. Fang Lang, who walked out of the house, glanced at the dark night sky, already thinking about the next move in his heart. Since the management staff of the Tomorrow League General is coming, if I stay in Osaka, I can only be a police occupation army, which is meaningless. Hurry up and jump out is the right way. Fang Lang just thought about the beginning, and the translator came out with the host abbot with a pale face. Looking at the devil translator who ran over and nodded and bowed to him, Fang Lang showed him a half-smile expression, which scared the devil translator enough. hurriedly opened the mouth and said: "Mr. Colonel, the presiding abbot has realized his mistake, and has also obtained the consent of several social sages. Now I will take you to the treasure room of Tennoji Temple." When Fang Lang heard it, what kind of social sages are there? Look at this, it means that there are not only treasures from Tianwang Temple in the treasure room now! Maybe the hidden treasure of Baihe Art Museum is here now! "Oh? I hear you mean that there are other people''s collections in this treasure room!" How could Fang Lang be dissatisfied with this kind of opportunity that can be done in one pot! As he spoke, he waved his hands, motioning for the two to lead the way. The presiding abbot was crying all the time, without saying a word, and he didn''t know if it was because he was afraid of saying the wrong thing and causing death, or because he didn''t want to have any communication with Fang Lang. The translator on the road also explained that there are indeed many noble family collections in the treasure room of Tianwang Temple, which is also their behavior to avoid risks. Unexpectedly, Fang Lang was directly fulfilled, giving him the opportunity to take it all away. Soon, several people followed the abbot through several Buddhist halls and came to a five-story tower. Fang Lang knew that this was the five-story building, a famous scenic spot in Tianwang Temple. He didn''t expect that the treasure room of Tianwang Temple would be in such a prominent position. Following the abbot opened the door on the first floor, pushed the door and walked in, there is a circular shelf, where all kinds of antiques and cultural relics are neatly arranged in different categories. Even behind the bogu shelf, Fang Lang could still see unopened wooden boxes with some family emblems painted on them. It is obviously a family collection of various nobles, what else is there to say? Fang Lang didn''t even bother to look at it, so he ordered Qi Qingshan behind him to pack the box. The soldiers of the expeditionary force obviously already had experience, and they began to pack all the items in an orderly manner. Although the presiding abbot has long expected. However, at this moment, seeing the actions of these soldiers, he slumped to the ground, his eyes were all gray. Fang Lang didn''t care, he patted Qi Qingshan on the shoulder, pointed upstairs, and motioned him to go up and have a look. He translated to the devil: "I heard that there is an ancient Chinese Bingzi Jiaolin sword here, let him take me to see it." The translator hurriedly murmured at the host abbot. Hearing the devil''s translation, the host abbot suddenly stood up from the ground, angrily spitting at the devil''s translation. Fang Lang didn''t even bother to look at him twice, but carefully looked at the collection on the first floor, and from time to time told the soldiers to handle it with care. Finally, the ghost translator finished communicating with the host abbot, and he came over and said softly to Fang Lang: "Mr. Colonel, the abbot said that there is no Bingzi Jiaolin sword here, only Prince Shotoku''s saber." "Haha. Since our abbot is so stubborn, let him go! What I want is something, not winning or losing. Because we have already won, haven''t we?" Hearing the devil''s translation, Fang Lang thought it was ridiculous. Things from China have been worn by your **** prince, so he directly denied his history. After listening to Fang Lang''s words, the ghost translator immediately had a flattering smile on his face, and echoed repeatedly: "Yes, Mr. Colonel, the Confederate States have already won. This damned old monk really doesn''t know how to praise him. Please don''t care about him like him." Fang Lang felt more and more that this devil''s translation was interesting. No matter how you look at it, it''s a bit of humiliation. I don''t know if I will try my best when I am on the side! Nodding with different expressions, he motioned for the ghost translator to lead the way. Several people went up to the top floor of the five-story building under the leadership of the abbot. The abbot was about to take out the knife, but was stopped by Qi Qingshan who was following up. Qi Qingshan stepped forward and gave the host abbot a hard look, pushed the old man away, took a knife box with his own hands, and handed it to Fang Lang. Fang Lang was not polite, he stretched out his hand to open the knife box, and saw a handleless straight knife lying quietly on the silk lining of the knife box. Fang Lang couldn''t help sighing as he looked at the luster on the knife. This is obviously the straight sword style of the Sui and Tang Dynasties. It is completely different from the slightly upturned blade shape of the Japanese samurai sword. I dont know how these Japanese have the face to say that it is a national treasure of Japan. Putting on gloves, Fang Lang gently stroked the words "Bingzijiaolin" on the body of the knife, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart. This can be regarded as the national treasure returning to the hands of the Chinese themselves. Gently closed the knife box, signaling Qi Qingshan to keep it safe, Fang Lang looked at the abbot and said: "I heard that Tennoji Temple in Tokyo also has many treasure rooms?" The ghost translator quickly translated Fang Lang''s words to the host abbot. As a result, when the abbot heard it, his face changed drastically, his eyes were terrified, as if he saw a devil, and he jumped from the fifth floor of the five-story building without hesitation. Fang Lang never expected that the abbot would have such a violent reaction. Originally, he just wanted to blow up the abbot. I didn''t expect the abbot to be so stubborn, so he didn''t give Fang Lang any chance, and chose to kill himself. Doesn''t he understand that his reaction is equivalent to telling Fang Lang directly, is what you said right? Does this mean you have brains or does it say you have no brains? (end of this chapter) Chapter 116: Do big things Chapter 116 Do big things On the night of October 4, 1945, Fang Lang stood on the fifth floor of the fifth-story building of Tennoji Temple in Osaka. Looking at the corpse of the presiding abbot on the ground, Fang Lang couldn''t help but start to mutter in his heart. At first, I just knew that there was a Tennoji Temple in Tokyo, Japan, so I casually bombed the host abbot, but the host jumped from the fifth floor without knowing what to think. Jumping from the top at such an advanced age, there is basically no need to consider the issue of rescue. From this point of view, the Tennoji Temple in Osaka is really related to the Tennoji Temple in Tokyo! Judging from the resolute self-silencing behavior of the host, Tokyo Tennoji should have much more hidden treasures than Osaka! What can I do, my own itinerary to Tokyo does not include Tokyo Tennoji! Looking at the soldiers downstairs who were busy moving the collection, Fang Lang began to fall into thought. Fang Lang didn''t recover until a soldier came to report that the U.S. military had brought two trucks of munitions to the station. Walking downstairs, looking at the five-storey building that was about to be evacuated, Fang Lang smiled with satisfaction. As far as what I have gained tonight, my trip to Osaka is not in vain. Come downstairs to Fanglang to find the messenger, and ask him to notify the artillery platoon to take two napalm bombs just delivered to see the effect. Soon the soldiers of the artillery platoon came with a Japanese-style 97-type 81MM mortar. Fang Lang pulled Qi Qingshan over again and whispered orders in his ear. After seeing Qi Qingshan express his understanding, Fang Lang didn''t say anything more. I have not had a good rest for two nights in a row, and now the work in Osaka has basically been completed. Fang Lang wants to have a good chat with his father while his father is nearby, and for the safety of this fleet, Fang Lang has ordered De la Torre''s Hope submarine to **** it all the way. The fleet was about to set off after dawn, so Fang Lang, who left Tianwang Temple, went directly to the pier, chatted with Fang Xinshan for a while, and then explained to De La Torre for a while. Although Fang Lang believes that this political storm in Brazil should not affect himself and his family, it is right to be cautious. So Fang Lang specifically asked de la Torre not to go ashore directly after returning to Brazil, but to wait for Fang Lang''s order off the coast of Santos Port, and be ready to meet his family at any time. Fang Lang knew that by the time Fang Xinshan and Hope returned to Brazil, October would have already ended, and President Vargas must have been overthrown. However, Fang Lang worried that President Vargas had been a dictator for so many years, so he would definitely have his own staff. Although I did not participate in the action to overthrow Vargas, as a pro-American faction on the surface of Brazil, when his family was targeted by Vargas supporters, Fang Lang had no place to cry. Not long after Fang Lang left Tianwang Temple, Qi Qingshan brought the two Japanese translators accompanying the team back to the house where the monks were held in Tianwang Temple. The ghost translator thought he was going to choose an aristocratic girl for Fang Lang, so he went in. Next, Qi Qingshan directly ordered the door to be locked and locked all the Japanese in the house, and immediately the Japanese in the house began to scream. The ghost translator who had been by Fang Lang''s side fell to the ground directly. He understood his fate the moment Qi Qingshan closed the door. This is going to be silenced. In vain, he thought he could gain favor by choosing noble girls for Fang Lang. However, in Fang Lang''s eyes, the so-called Japanese aristocratic girl is more important than keeping a secret! Fang Lang doesn''t want to keep this secret all the time, it''s unrealistic. Fang Lang just wanted to keep this secret until Fang Lang transported all the collections back to Brazil safely. After Qi Qingshan left, the mortar of the artillery platoon fired two napalm bombs, and the whole house fell into a sea of ??flames. Fang Lang didn''t even pay attention to who the nobles were imprisoned in this house during the whole process. If the Japanese translator was clever enough, he should have figured out that they would definitely be silenced. It''s a pity that it doesn''t make any sense to Fang Lang, whether he is wronged or reckless. The next day, at around 2 pm, when the messenger sent by Colonel Malik came to notify Fang Lang of the meeting, what he saw was that except for the necessary personnel on duty. The entire Brazilian Expeditionary Army barracks was snoring like thunder, and everyone was asleep. The intense work for two consecutive days and two nights really made the soldiers of the expeditionary army very tired, and it also made Fang Lang a lot of money. Yesterday at about 8 o''clock in the morning, Fang Lang watched his father lead Osaka''s harvest and set off. The fleet that left this time consisted of three cargo ships, a supply ship and a submarine. The House and another supply ship were left to serve Fang Lang. When Fang Lang came to Colonel Malik''s office, he saw Colonel Malik sitting at his desk looking at a document, with a puff of smoke wafting from the cigar in his hand. When he saw Fang Lang, Colonel Malik was not polite, and said directly: "Fang, the officials of the League General from Tokyo have arrived in Osaka this morning, and called the original Osaka officials for a meeting at the Osaka City Hall, and asked me to attend. From now on, the days when we can directly call the shots are gone. Moreover, I have also received an order from the military department. Starting from October, we will start a large-scale disarmament operation. And I heard that this plan will reduce 11 million US soldiers to 1.7 million by the end of 1948, and I will soon be ready to retire. " Hearing Colonel Malik''s words, Fang Lang was also taken aback. Fang Lang had been prepared for the management of the Japanese government by the President, but he did not expect that the disarmament of the US military would come so quickly. And the intensity of the abolition is so great. It is a bit scary to abolish 9 million troops in three years. However, after thinking about it, Fang Lang also felt normal. If this was not the case, how could the Americans readily agree to provide Brazil with warships to form the first fleet! Now is a good opportunity to take over the American arms! It must be a lot of food. It''s a pity that I can''t take over these equipments. I can''t buy them and leave them in Brazil to rust! If it is sold to other countries, it is impossible to sell the Americans themselves. But besides arms, I still need other materials. For example, jeeps, trucks, etc. can be resold domestically. Also, it is definitely no problem to have two American transport planes to make my own special plane! It''s not that Fang Lang doesn''t want to buy a few more planes to start an airline, it''s because there really isn''t such a big market for an airline in Brazil now! The common people have no money, so who would take a plane! Going to the United States to open an airline company still has a chance to make a fortune. But the United States and Pan Am are the territory of several major aviation giants, and if you are a small player, if you enter, people will swallow you up. "Malik, you are now the Japanese occupation army, and the abolition is to abolish the army that has no mission first! How can you abolish the army that is still carrying out the occupation mission so casually! Do not worry! If you are cut now, I will come forward and hire you to work in Brazil. " After listening to Fang Lang''s words, Malik laughed, and stretched out his hand to give Fang Lang a hug. "I called you here today to remind you that we have to restrain ourselves from now on. If there is anything that hasn''t been cleaned up, we must hurry up and clean it up. Once these **** Japanese start to participate in management again, they will definitely make things for us everywhere. Trouble!" Marik''s words really reminded Fang Lang, it seems that after returning, he has to send a few napalm bombs to Sumitomo Copper Blowing Institute! After thinking about his own arrangement, Fang Lang took the initiative to talk to Malik again: "Brother Malik, the situation in Brazil is also very chaotic recently. Our Brazilian Navy Department sent a telegram a few days ago, ordering us to withdraw to Brazil!" "Really? Is your government unwilling to participate in the occupation of Japan?" "Actually, the order I received was to assist the US military in the Pacific War, and I was not ordered to participate in the task of occupying Japan. I came to Osaka because I applied to General Clark on my own initiative. Now that I appear in the Japanese occupation army, some officials in the country are very dissatisfied, and I am putting pressure on the Ministry of the Navy, so I may withdraw soon. " Fang Lang did not lie about this matter. Some politicians in Brazil did express their dissatisfaction with the Brazilian expeditionary force''s participation in the occupation army out of consideration for their own votes. It''s a pity that Fang Lang pushed back by saying that he was obeying the orders of the US military. It was impossible for them to ask the US military if Fang Lang himself wanted to join the occupation army on his own initiative. However, it is in line with Fang Lang''s wishes to withdraw to Brazil now, so he also contacted Rear Admiral Crook of the Navy Department. Major General Crook is waiting for the warship promised by the US military to be in place, but depending on the situation, he should soon receive an order to withdraw to Brazil. "That''s such a pity, I thought you would always accompany me to make a fortune in Osaka!" "Hi! We can''t go too far with the bosses of the League President, so I might as well go home and be with my family in peace of mind!" "Yeah! I haven''t been home for a long time!" Speaking of his home, Colonel Malik even revealed a warm smile. "Malik, I want to apply to take my troops to Tokyo to see, I don''t know if it will work." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Malik was startled, and looked at Fang Lang seriously and said: "Brother, I just gave you two truckloads of dangerous goods. You are going to Tokyo now to do something earth-shattering, right?" Fang Lang looked at Malik''s expression, smiled and said: "Malik, I am a soldier of the Allied Army, and I will never do anything to harm the Allied Army. Please rest assured! However, as a Chinese, I do have some accounts to settle with the Japanese." Hearing that Fang Lang was going to settle accounts with the Japanese, Malik was relieved, and his face quickly returned to normal. "Looking for the Japanese to settle accounts can be done in Osaka! Why go to Tokyo?" (end of this chapter) Chapter 117: recruit Chapter 117 Pulling people into the occupation Colonel Malik fully understands Fang Lang''s identity as a Chinese and wants to settle accounts with the Japanese, but he doesn''t understand why he must go to Tokyo. Suddenly, a flash of inspiration flashed in his mind, making him stand up again in fright. "Fang, you don''t mean to throw these dangerous goods into the devil''s palace!" After thinking about it, he sat down and patted Fang Lang on the shoulder: "Fang who has no chance, the Japanese imperial palace is heavily guarded, and we Americans are responsible for the defense work. It is impossible to give you a chance to attack the imperial palace. A few days ago, Japanese officers who refused to surrender wanted to rush into the palace and hijack that Tianhuang, but they were all killed by the defenders. " Fang Lang really had this idea, but Fang Lang gave up after thinking about it, not because he was afraid of the American defenders. The main reason is that if he really attacked Japan Tianhuang. I guess I won''t be able to go back to Brazil, and even if I go back to Brazil, I''ll probably be caught out. It''s not worth putting myself on for a Tianhuang. Fang Lang didn''t know if Malik really cared about himself, but Fang Lang still wanted to appreciate it, so he smiled and said: "Dude, don''t worry! I''m not that stupid! It''s too unworthy to set myself up for a **** Tianhuang. Don''t worry! I''m still young, I won''t do stupid things! However, how can I say that I am also under the management of your Osaka occupation army now, is there any way for you to let me take my brothers to Tokyo? " Marik took a deep look at Fang Lang, as if he wanted to see whether what Fang Lang said was true or false, and it took a long time before he said leisurely: "Fang, since you know that you are now under the management of my Osaka occupation army, you should know that everything you do is related to me. Once the responsibility is investigated, both of us will be arrested together. So, do you think if you were me, you''d agree to let me mess around? " It seems that Fang Lang really thinks things too simply. He is just a little colonel of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. On the American territory, there are indeed many things that he can''t do. However, Fang Lang felt unwilling to let Fang Lang give up so easily. Suddenly, Fang Langfu thought of the old monk who jumped from the five-storied pagoda, and a smile gradually appeared on his face. "Malik, if you retire, have you considered what to do?" Seeing Fang Lang, who had an ugly face, he actually smiled, and changed the subject to ask about his future plans. He couldn''t help being taken aback, looked at Fang Lang suspiciously, and said: "I should go back and join my family''s construction company! What? Do you have any recommendations?" I didnt expect Maliks family to run a construction company. It seems that he is still a rich man! Since he is a rich man, why can''t he see the value of the machinery and equipment in the artillery factory! This made Fang Lang a little strange, so he couldn''t help but continue to ask: "Unexpectedly, there is a construction company in your family, so it seems that you are a rich man!" Unexpectedly, after listening to Fang Lang''s words, Malik''s face became a little ugly, and he said with a slightly angry tone: "I am not a rich man, although this company was founded by my father. However, he has already made a will, and all the shares in the company are left to my half-brother. And I just had an opportunity to work in the company. " Unexpectedly, Fang Lang''s casual sentence led to a drama of family ethics. No wonder Malik has such a great interest in money and dares to take such a big risk to eat an artillery factory. "Dude, don''t be sad, your father will regret his decision. Now there is a chance to make a fortune, I don''t know if you dare to try it." Although Malik is short of money, he is not stupid. How could a stupid person become the brigade commander of the 1st Division of the U.S. Cavalry! So, after hearing Fang Lang''s words, Malik looked at Fang Lang with an expression of looking at a fool, as if to say, are you stupid looking at me? Fang Lang looked at Malik''s expression and didn''t care, and smiled and said: "Marik, do you know if the occupying forces in Tokyo have harvested any treasures from the Tokyo Museum!" When it comes to museums, Malik is obviously interested, and obviously knows the value of antiques and other works of art. After thinking about it, Malik said: "The order we received did not allow us to take action against this type of unit. However, as far as I know, the Japanese are on guard against us, so the things in the museum are obviously of little value. The good things are hidden by them. " "Oh! I wonder if we can confiscate cultural relics that are not in the museum?" Looking at Fang Lang''s confident expression, Malik finally began to show a greedy smile. "Fang, you mean, do you know where the collections of the museum have been transferred by these dwarfs?" Fang Lang smiled noncommittally, but did not speak. Malik immediately understood what Fang Lang meant, and said directly: "Fang, there are some things that we can''t do blatantly. However, as long as we can guarantee that we won''t be discovered, there is still room for manipulation. But we all have to be honest. " Hearing Malik''s words, Fang Lang still didn''t understand what he meant, so he smiled and said: "I did get wind that the Japanese had transferred the cultural relics in the Tokyo Museum on a large scale before you landed, and I also knew where they were hiding." "Fang, tell me about your conditions." Malik was very direct, which made Fang Lang a little astonished. It seems that getting rich is indeed very attractive to Malik! Fang Lang didn''t talk too much, and said directly: "There are so many things that the two of us can''t eat." "Colonel Jason, the commander of the Tokyo occupation force, is my comrade in arms. We can recruit him into the group, so that we will be safe." "But these things are not my main goal." Now that Malik''s interest has come up, it''s up to Fang Lang to make his own request. "Tell me about what you want to do in Tokyo and how we need to cooperate. How about this! I will talk to Jason first, if he is also interested, then we will do this together. how? " Seeing Malik''s eager expression, Fang Lang naturally wouldn''t refuse. This is his only chance to enter Tokyo. If he can''t finish it within October, he will have no chance until the country orders him to withdraw. Fang Lang nodded without hesitation. Malik directly grabbed the phone in front of him and dialed it in front of Fang Lang. These words must be inconvenient to say directly on the phone, but it can be seen that Malik has a very good relationship with the other party. After the two chatted about the old days, the other party heard Malik''s hint and directly stated that he would fly directly to the interview tomorrow morning. This really made Fang Lang envious. This kind of plane came and went, and he didn''t know when he would be able to own it. Since the better it is, come to the interview tomorrow morning, everyone must make it clear together, so Fang Lang soon said goodbye to Malik and returned to his residence. As soon as he returned to the station, Fang Lang ordered the artillery platoon to bombard the Sumitomo Copper Blowing Institute with napalm bombs. Even if Sumitomo wants to make trouble, give him a dead body, The next morning, before Fang Lang set off to find Colonel Malik, he saw Colonel Malik leading another short, middle-aged white colonel, and drove directly to Fang Lang''s office in a jeep. After Malik introduced the two, Fang Lang led the two to his office and held a closed-door meeting. Before Fang Lang could speak, Colonel Jason took out a map of Tokyo directly from the briefcase he brought, spread it out on the desk and said: "Fang, Malik has already made it clear to me that Malik and I are brothers, and you and Malik are also good brothers. The purpose of our coming here today is also very clear. You tell me what you want to do, what we need to do, and how to distribute the obtained things, how about everyone being open and honest. " Fang Lang looked at Colonel Jason in front of him, and couldn''t help but secretly said loudly. Just met for the first time, and I want to have the right to speak. Fang Lang certainly can''t follow his rhythm! directly opened the mouth and said: "I don''t know what Colonel Jason can do?" Jason was taken aback when he heard Fang Lang''s words, and looked at Colonel Malik. Malik nodded at him and did not speak, but there was obviously a tacit understanding between the two. Seeing Malik nodding, Jason didn''t hide and said directly: "Fang, except for the guards of the generals, the occupying forces in Tokyo are all under my control. If you want to fight somewhere, I can assure you that there will be no one who shouldn''t appear where he shouldn''t appear." Place." It seems that Colonel Jason really wants to get the specific address out of his mouth! It''s a pity that Fang Lang is not a child, and it is impossible to be fooled so easily. Instead, he said leisurely: "I don''t know if Colonel Malik told you that he sent me fifty Japanese Type 97 mortars and five hundred napalm bombs. If I want to go to Tokyo and dump all these things in one place, Can you hold it?" Fang Lang''s words obviously shocked Colonel Jason, his eyes almost popped out of their sockets, and he glanced at Malik in horror. Seeing Malik shrugging his shoulders, he nodded with a wry smile. Colonel Jason swallowed hard and said: "Are you crazy? We''ll all be court-martialed if you do." Seeing Jason''s expression, Malik obviously knew what he was thinking, and hurriedly said: "Jason, don''t worry, Fang said he won''t bomb anything!" Then both of them looked at Fang Lang, obviously wanting Fang Lang to tell his real goal so that they could assess the risk. After Fang Lang smiled, he looked at the map of Tokyo, pointed to the location they were worried about and said: "Are you afraid that I will directly blow up that old Huangba''s house?" The two nodded repeatedly, obviously telling Fang Lang that if he wanted to blow up somewhere, they would stop playing and couldn''t afford it. (end of this chapter) Chapter 118: Operation "Burning Ghosts" Chapter 118 Operation "Burning Ghosts" Fang Lang looked at the two US military colonels with real power in front of him, with a nervous expression on his face, he couldn''t help but let out a playful smile and said: "Actually, I think as long as Colonel Jason cooperates well, it won''t have any effect even if we blow up here!" After hearing Fang Lang''s words, the two of them raised their hearts directly to their throats. Colonel Jason glared at him with dissatisfied eyes, and Colonel Malik on the side kept complaining in his heart, "You son of a **** Malik, this is not a good thing to get rich! This is simply fatal! Here comes a madman." In fact, Fang Lang was also testing the two of them. After all, he was not familiar with Colonel Jason, and he was about to start making big moves when he arrived in Tokyo. He already knew about it in advance, what should I do if I catch a turtle in the urn. "Our equipment is all Japanese-style. After the launch is over, wouldn''t it be enough to just arrest a few Japanese soldiers and take the blame? What do you have to be afraid of?" Now it''s Malik''s turn to be really anxious, and he hastened to persuade: "Fang, we are brothers! You said you wanted to equip me, but you got it all without saying anything. You can''t cheat me like this!" The Japanese cant get napalm bombs. Its okay to fool the Japanese with your words, but its just a joke to fool the American military police. Wait a minute after you bombed me, I was sent to a military prison by you. " Colonel Jason next to him also said solemnly: "Fang, this matter is too big, I can''t handle it, if it really can''t, you see, or we will break up first." Fang Lang really didn''t dare to do such a bold thing when he saw the two of them, so he could only shake his head helplessly and said: "Hey! Since this is the case, I won''t make things difficult for you. Let me change my target!" As he spoke, he moved his finger up a little bit, and tapped it twice heavily with his finger, and said: "Then I will burn this place down, and I won''t let everyone go to court-martial!" The two followed Fang Lang''s fingers and saw that it was not an important military target or a government agency, so they couldn''t help but feel a little strange. Colonel Jason asked suspiciously: "Fang, it seems that this place is not an important unit except that it is a little closer to the palace!" Hearing Colonel Jason''s question, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Didn''t you say that you can''t handle the attack on an important target? Can you handle the attack here?" Seeing both Fang Lang and Malik looking at him, Colonel Jason hesitated slightly: "Fang, this place is very close to the palace. You won''t tell us not to attack the palace. When the time comes, just turn the angle and blow up the palace!" Colonel Malik was a little worried when he heard Jason''s words, and quickly looked at Fang Lang. Fang Lang met the eyes of the two calmly, smiled and said: "If you two are worried, I will hand over the equipment to you, and you help me blow up this place. How about my people responsible for transporting the treasure?" Malik still has some trust in Fang Lang, but Colonel Jason is cooperating with Fang Lang for the first time, and he said directly before Malik could speak: "Fang, if you are sure that your target is here, I will tell you clearly, as long as your shells do not fly in the wrong direction. I will finish this matter for you, and I promise that no one will suspect you. As for the treasure, I think we should do it together. " Malik also nodded quickly: "Fang, I understand what you mean. You want to use a big fire to attract the attention of the defenders. Then, go to the treasure place to take out the treasure, right? This idea is good, I support it, and Jason will definitely be able to perfectly match you. But its best for us to open the treasure together, which is fair to everyone, what do you think? " Hearing what the two said, Fang Lang smiled and said: "I really want to come to tune the tiger away from the mountain, but the current situation is that if the tigers are all their own people, we don''t have to worry about this problem at all, right? In addition, this matter does not need to pick me out. It doesnt matter if you can convince ordinary Japanese people that this matter was done by the Brazilian Expeditionary Force after I return to Brazil. As for the treasures, it doesnt matter if you want to open them together, but I think its better for us to allocate their respective proportions first. " Both Malik and Jason were overjoyed, and they looked at each other. Malik said: "Fang, are you sure that the treasure you mentioned belongs to the collection of the Tokyo Museum? I don''t know if you know the approximate value." Fang Lang is only guessing now, after all, the old monk of Tianwang Temple jumped off the building without saying anything. However, if he wants to go to Tokyo to implement his plan, he must have the cooperation of the two people in front of him, so Fang Lang must get the support of the two. After thinking about it, Fang Lang felt that he was still telling the truth: "According to the news I received, it is like this, but I don''t know the specific value. It should be determined according to the situation on the spot." After saying this, the two of them obviously hesitated. After all, for an unknown wealth, taking such a big risk, whether it is worth it or not is a question that needs to be carefully considered. Seeing that neither of them spoke, Fang Lang smiled and said: "I don''t know if you two have a channel to sell this kind of goods. If not, maybe we can change the cooperation method." Both of them focused their eyes on him. Fang Lang smiled slightly and said: "If you don''t have a sales channel, I can directly bid to buy it. According to the total value of 600,000 U.S. dollars, the three of us will share it equally. How about I give you 200,000 U.S. dollars each." The eyes of the two people brightened, and after looking at each other, Malik said: "Fang, do you really not know the value of the goods? Then what if the total value is less than 600,000?" Shrugged Fang Lang said indifferently: "I really don''t know how many collections there are. If it''s like what you said, I can only admit the loss, as if I paid for it myself, and ask the two brothers for a favor." Actually, Fang Lang had expectations for this batch of collections in his heart, and he could be sure that they were definitely higher than the collections he had removed from Tianwang Temple. Especially when he just discovered on the map Colonel Jason brought that the straight-line distance between Tokyo Tennoji and Tokyo Museum was less than three kilometers, he had a strong hunch in his heart that he might really be making a fortune. However, the price he quoted was actually to leave room for the two to bargain. In his own mind, the price in his heart was for the two of them to share half a million dollars each. Colonel Jason had obviously seen the big scene, and said directly: "Fang, I agree with your plan, but I want 300,000 per person in terms of price. I assure you that all your actions in Tokyo will have my full support." Fang Lang thought for a while, but did not directly agree, but said: "Brothers, I know that you have to take a lot of risks in this matter. However, I also have to take a lot of risks. If the value of the hidden treasure is less than 600,000, I will be working in vain. The two of you will see if this works. After you get the item, I will pay each of you $100,000. If the calculated value is less than 600,000, I will give the two of you $100,000. If the value exceeds 600,000 U.S. dollars, no matter how much it exceeds, I will calculate it as 900,000 U.S. dollars and pay 200,000 U.S. dollars to each of the two. how! " After listening to Fang Lang''s words, Colonel Jason obviously wanted to say something more, and Colonel Malik had already spoken directly: "Okay! Just do as you say. We are brothers, and I trust you." Since Malik had agreed, Colonel Jason didn''t say anything more. Next, Fang Lang began to reveal his entire plan, but only hid the address of the treasure. Malik and Jason also got involved, refining the plan. After a discussion among the three colonels and officers, a bold plan gradually took shape. Several people soon began to carry out the plan separately. First of all, Malik arranged for his soldiers to take over gradually. It turned out that the Brazilian expeditionary force was in charge of patrolling the area. Three days later, all the marines of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force marched to Tokyo by land in four batches of 100 trucks, in order not to attract the attention of other personnel. After they arrived in Tokyo, they were secretly arranged by Colonel Jason to ten locations. While at the base in Osaka, Fang Lang mobilized some sailors from the House, together with soldiers arranged by Colonel Malik, to be responsible for defensive training at the expeditionary force station. Let everyone think that the expeditionary force was still in place, and even Fang Lang would take the officer''s car given to him by Malik to patrol around from time to time. The purpose of doing this must be to deceive people. Apart from not wanting to be seen by the Japanese, the main purpose is to avoid the attention of the boss. After about a week of preparations, various artillery units as far away as Tokyo said that they had already calibrated the shooting elements near the target, and they could begin to implement the code-named "Burning Ghost" action plan only after the commander gave an order. Finally, the time came to the afternoon of October 12th. Fang Lang and Colonel Malik flew directly to Tokyo on a US military transport plane. Just when the plane reached the sky above Tokyo, Fang Lang specifically asked the pilot to rotate the plane around the sky above Tokyo. Looking at the Tokyo city below, Fang Langduo hoped that the plane under him was a B29 bomber, so that he could drop nine tons of bombs directly on the Japanese heads. Not to mention how many casualties it will cause, the key is that this feeling of being able to **** on the heads of the Japanese is really not too pleasant. Unfortunately, I can only think about these things. The plane soon landed at the U.S. military airport. Colonel Jason who greeted them did not take a Willys jeep, but drove a Nissan 70 car with curtains. Colonel Jason, who picked up the two of them, didn''t stop there either. Instead, he took Fang Lang directly to an observation position he had chosen. While it was still dark, Fang Lang was able to see from a distance through the telescope the complex of buildings that countless Chinese children in later generations wanted to burn down to the ground. The entire building complex is L-shaped, and the straight-line distance from the Japanese Imperial Palace is 1.29 kilometers. (end of this chapter) Chapter 119: Bombing the toilet Chapter 119 Bombarding the God Toilet Fang Lang looked at the buildings not far away from a distance. He knew very well that many war criminals from World War II hadn''t been enshrined in it yet, but this is the only place in Japan dedicated to the soldiers who died in war. All the Japanese soldiers who died in the war are enshrined here. Since I have the opportunity to come here, how can I watch him continue to stay here safely! Fang Lang raised the watch in his hand, and looked at the time that it was less than ten minutes before the start of the plan. Turning his head to Malik and Jason beside him, he said: "Are you sure twenty mortars are enough?" Marik looked at Fang Lang''s obviously distrustful expression, and said angrily: "Fang, you have to believe in our expertise. The buildings in this place are all made of wood. We use our napalm bombs, and each mortar has ten rounds. I guarantee that the Japanese will not even have a chance to put out the fire." Jason also said on the side: "Don''t worry! If I am in Japan, there will be no chance to put out the fire. I promise you, if it cannot be completely burned, I will be responsible for helping you do it again." That''s right, Fang Lang''s goal is the Jingguo Temple in Tokyo, Japan. In later generations, countless people wanted to burn this place clean, but although some Chinese compatriots, Brother Qiang, successfully implemented it in 2013, it was a pity that Little Japan discovered it. Today Fang Lang can unscrupulously launch a bombardment with the cooperation of the US military, directly razing this evil place to the ground. No one understood why Fang Lang had to pay such a high price to attack such a completely worthless place. But Fang Lang felt that the price he paid was worth it. Now that he leads the Brazilian Expeditionary Force to directly destroy the beliefs of Japanese soldiers, what he pays can not only vent his emotions. It can even create a gap in the relationship between Japan and Brazil. After I return to my country, I will use some methods against the Japanese in Brazil. I dont believe that Brazil will become the second hometown of many Japanese like later generations. The waiting time always feels very long, and Fang Lang keeps staring at his target with the telescope in his hand. Finally, Colonel Jason''s calm voice came from beside him, "It''s time!" Immediately afterwards, Fang Lang discovered that there was a sudden "dong dong" sound from more than ten places around the target, and the small black dots flying from different directions all flew towards the same target. Soon, sporadic fires began to appear in the target area. Because of the long distance, it looked like just a few sparks in Fang Lang''s telescope. However, soon more and more small black spots and moths flocked to the place where the fire was lit, and Fang Lang in the distance began to hear noisy noises. Obviously, the Japanese nearby discovered the abnormality. Fang Lang from a distance saw many people rushing towards the fire with tools, trying to put out the fire. Fang Lang smiled disdainfully, this is no ordinary fire, and the dominance of napalm bombs cannot be extinguished with fire. In the telescope, Fang Lang could see that after someone poured a bucket of water on it, the fire started to follow the water flow to further expand the burning range. I also saw someone striking the flames with a branch, and the flames were carried by the branches and splashed around, and the firefighters and people around them were also ignited by the flames. The fire began to expand further, and more and more people joined the ranks of fighting the fire. The monks in the sacred toilet were also running around in a hurry, some wanted to fight the fire, some wanted to escape. For a while, the Jingguo Shen toilet was in chaos, and the American soldiers stationed nearby seemed to have fallen asleep early, and did not see any movement. The mortar shells in the distance finally stopped firing. Each mortar has only ten shells. A well-trained soldier can shoot ten rapid fires very quickly. The entire launch took less than a minute. The soldiers who completed the launch began to evacuate in an orderly manner, while the tools of crime were left in place. These tools will become evidence for Colonel Jason to solve the case. A pitch-black column of smoke shot up from the Jingguo Shrine, and the vision of the sky could be clearly seen in the entire Tokyo city area. At this time, all Japanese could see this terrifying scene from their homes. The Japanese people who were far away thought that the imperial palace was attacked, and many people began to gather in the direction of the smoke column. At this time, the Jingguo Shrine has turned into a sea of ??flames, and people within two or three kilometers can see that this huge fire is taking over the afterglow of the setting sun and performing the lighting work. Nearby people are still pouring in from all directions to join the firefighting team. Unfortunately, their efforts are doomed to be in vain. The fire is getting bigger and bigger, and even began to spread to the palace. Colonel Jason glanced at Fang Lang and said: "Okay, I''m going to organize the soldiers to establish a separation zone. The rest is up to you. Don''t worry, I will send all the soldiers nearby to maintain order. No soldiers will disturb your work until early tomorrow morning. " Both Fang Lang and Malik nodded at Colonel Jason, indicating that they understood. Slowly, the sky became completely dark, but the vicinity of the Jingguo Shrine was as bright as day. The soaring flames burned the night sky in Tokyo red, and Fang Lang, who was several kilometers away, could feel the scorching air waves. In the telescope, Fang Lang could clearly see that many buildings near the holy toilet had been set on fire, and the fire seemed to be out of control. A cruel smile appeared on the corner of Fang Lang''s mouth. This smile made several people nearby feel cold. After a long while, Fang Lang said: "Okay, it''s time for us to work, the goal is Tennoji. Let''s go." After speaking, he walked downstairs without looking back, and everyone followed. It is said that real men never look back at the explosion, but Fang Lang really wants to move a casual chair, put melon seeds beer, and sit on the roof to watch this grand bonfire party. well! It''s a pity that there is still a treasure waiting for Fang Lang to discover, and Fang Lang has to give up watching. Walking downstairs, Fang Lang got into the car parked on the side of the road directly, and left this best viewing spot. Along the way, they could see that there was a steady stream of people on the road converging in the direction of the Jingguo Shrine. If there were no guards in front of the soldiers using military vehicles to open the way, the vehicles would probably be blocked on the road and unable to move forward. The Marine Corps soldiers hiding in various places in Tokyo have gathered at Tennoji Temple in Tokyo from all directions under the notification of the radio. The straight-line distance between Tokyo Tennoji Temple and Jingguo Temple is less than ten kilometers. When Fang Lang and the others arrived at their destination, a large number of soldiers drove military vehicles to the square outside Tennoji Temple. After Fang Lang got off the car, he glanced at the temple in front of him on Huguo Mountain in Tokyo, which had a history of more than 300 years, and smiled from the bottom of his heart. Unexpectedly, this time I came to Japan and entered a temple with the same name in two different cities. I hope that this large-scale temple in front of me will not disappoint me. Without waiting for the people to arrive, Fang Lang waved his hand, and the soldiers rushed forward, rushing in through the temple gate that was not closed. I dont know if the monks in the temple also went to the Jingguo Shrine to join in the fun. There were very few monks in the whole temple. After the soldiers went in, they finally found an old monk with poor legs and feet, and he turned out to be a deaf-mute. Different from Tennoji Temple in Osaka, which is built on flat ground, Tennoji Temple in Tokyo is built on a mountain. Fang Lang, who entered Tennoji Temple, was not annoyed when he saw that he could not find a monk. Looking up, I found a building that was almost exactly the same as the five-storied pagoda of Tennoji Temple in Osaka. Then what else is there to say, Fang Lang''s first thought was to go directly to the tower, and after getting closer, Fang Lang realized that although the tower also had five floors, its scale was obviously much larger than the five-storied tower in Osaka. There is also a five-storied pagoda on the plaque of the tower, and Fang Lang doesn''t want to know if all temples in Japan will have such a building. Waved directly to the soldiers behind him, and the soldiers stepped forward and smashed the lock on the door, and broke in. Soon a soldier came out of the tower and reported to Fang Lang: "Report sir, the tower is safe." Fang Lang nodded and said to Malik beside him: "Brother, shall we go in and have a look together?" Malik, who couldn''t wait for a long time, would not be polite to Fang Lang, and just took big strides and walked directly inside. Walking into this tower, I saw that the entire first floor was basically filled with crates, leaving only an aisle in the middle that was as wide as one person, and could walk inside. Seeing this situation, Malik stepped back and looked at Fang Lang: "What a fart! It''s all packed in crates, so why don''t we open them one by one?" Fang Lang was taken aback when he heard what he said, and stepped forward to take a look, feeling an indescribable shock in his heart. How many treasures are there! It was so full that there was not even a place for people to stay, and the words Tokyo National Museum were posted on each crate. Seeing the scene in front of him, Fang Lang knew that he had guessed right. The five-story tower contained the treasures of the Tokyo National Museum five kilometers away. Without stopping, Fang Lang walked directly along the narrow aisle, and saw that the stairs leading to the second floor went straight inside. The situation on the second floor was basically the same as that on the first floor, except that the size of the wooden box was slightly smaller. Continue to come to the third floor, the second floor, and the first floor are all packed to the brim. The size of the packaging becomes smaller as you go up, and there are many bundles of picture scrolls on the top floor. Opening a cloth bag, you can clearly see the material of the picture scroll, including cotton and silk. Fang Lang took out a roll and saw a set of calligraphy. He looked at the yellowed paper, the seals on it, and the Chinese characters on the roll, especially the three characters Dong Qichang clearly visible in the lower left corner. Needless to say, one of them is a Chinese cultural relic, and then look at how many cultural relics are looted from China in this full five-story building. Then there is nothing to say, go downstairs and grit your teeth to the soldiers: "Move!" The soldiers who had already gathered on standby for a long time rolled up their sleeves and began to carry them outside without saying a word. Marik looked at Fang Lang with an ugly face and said: "Brother, what''s the matter? Is there nothing good? Is your face so ugly?" Hearing Malik''s words, Fang Lang let out a wry smile and said: "I picked one at random to have a look, it was snatched from my hometown." Then he said with an ugly face: "In the future, if anyone dares to say that I stole these things, I will shoot his head off. Im **** taking back my own ancestors things. Whoever dares to say that Im robbing, Ill let him know what robbing is. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 120: Darkness Chapter 120 Darkness Chencang The flames of the Jingguo Divine Toilet in the distance are still very hot, and outside the five-storied tower in Tianwang Temple on Huguo Mountain, Fang Lang is venting his dissatisfaction to Malik. Unfortunately, as an American, Malik couldn''t understand Fang Lang''s mood at the moment. I saw Malik shrugged and said: "Fang, did you make a profit or a loss?" Seeing Malik''s expression, Fang Lang knew that he was talking about chicken and duck. Malik obviously only cared about whether the value of this collection exceeded 600,000 US dollars. Fang Lang could only shake his head helplessly and said: "There is no way to determine the specific value. We need to transport them all away first, but depending on the situation, most of the collections here are from my hometown. Judging from the current market price, the price of these collections is not high. high. You can rest assured that I will follow our agreement. After the goods arrive in Brazil safely, we will jointly arrange appraisers for valuation by the three parties, and I will pay you in cash according to the actual value. " Hearing that Fang Lang judged that the value of these collections was not high, Malik was slightly disappointed. It''s not that Fang Lang deliberately lied to him. After all, the current Huaxia collectibles market has no capital to end the hype. Although there are many people collecting Chinese cultural relics, the price is indeed not high. Huaxia collections will not start to be hyped up by foreigners until the reform and opening up and the common people become rich, and they will be used to grab Huaxia''s wealth. And in Fang Lang''s mind, these collections are his own treasures, and it''s fine to give them some hard work. It''s impossible for Malik and Jason to extract too much wealth from him. Malik was relieved when he heard that Fang Lang said that he would pay them in cash as agreed. No matter how much the valuation will be at that time, at least he can get a guarantee of 200,000 US dollars. Such a large sum of money was already very satisfying in Malik''s heart. As for distributing all the collections proportionally, Malik never thought about it. He wanted cash, Mane, not this **** pile of crap. Of course he knew these things very well in his heart, and they would definitely increase in value after a period of collection, but he couldn''t wait any longer. Once he retires and returns home, he has to think about his own livelihood. Is he really allowed to work in the construction company left by his father to his half-brother? Originally, this company should have his share, but now his father has left all of it to his younger brother, so what can he do! Who let his biological mother leave early, and now his stepmother is the master of the family, and being able to leave a job for himself in the company is already the greatest charity the stepmother has given to him. So, Malik''s current wish is to get a lot of money as soon as possible, and after he retires, he can directly start his own business. Sooner or later, he will defeat his younger brother and show his father what a stupid decision it is to hand over the company to his younger brother. "That''s good, let''s hurry up, has your cargo ship arrived in Tokyo Bay? Don''t wait for the cargo to arrive at the dock, but there is no ship to transport it." "Don''t worry! My supply ship has arrived in Tokyo Bay before we board the plane." "Are you going to use your supply ship to transport these supplies directly? You won''t be detained by your Brazilian military!" "I don''t own these goods alone. Do you think anyone in Brazil dares to make irresponsible remarks about the goods of the three of us?" Originally, Malik felt that Fang Lang used the army''s supply ship to transport these goods to defend himself and Jason, and he felt a little unhappy. But now that Fang Lang said that it was the goods of the three of them, he felt much more comfortable. Stepped forward and patted Fang Lang on the shoulder and said: "You''re right, if there is someone who doesn''t open his eyes and dares to trouble our brother, I will let the gun in my waist teach him to be a man." The quantity of goods is very large. Fortunately, Fang Lang was well prepared and insisted that Malik arrange a full hundred trucks. Now I can see how wise the original decision was. When all the goods were loaded on the truck, more than 70 trucks were fully loaded. Of course, this also has something to do with the poor load capacity of trucks in this era. By the time all the goods were loaded onto the truck, the sky had already begun to brighten, and all the soldiers were exhausted. After all, there are no loading tools such as forklifts in this era. Moreover, the Tennoji Temple in Tokyo is on the mountain, and it is not as easy to carry as it is on the flat ground. After all the goods were loaded onto the vehicle, Fang Lang finally climbed up to the fifth floor of the five-storied tower. Standing on the fifth floor, he could clearly see the Jingguo Shrine in the distance. The fire that had been burning for a whole night without any sign of abating made the faint whiteness of the eastern sky appear eclipsed. Fang Lang looked at this spectacular scene, feeling very proud in his heart, and felt that if he didn''t write a poem, he would feel sorry for such a burnable wood. However, after standing on the top of the five-storied tower and deliberating for more than a full minute, I finally choked out the sentence, "It''s so **** beautiful." The adjutant Qi Qingshan and Colonel Malik who were standing aside had inexplicable question marks on their faces! But Fang Lang had already expressed all the talents in his heart, and went downstairs and left without looking back. Looking at the two marine soldiers on the first floor who are using two candles to set up a delayed fire device, they said: "You guys are reliable! Can''t we have some high-tech timing loading that meets our status? Even an alarm clock!" As a result, the two soldiers who got together said to Fang Lang in embarrassment: "Report sir, we won''t do what you said." Fang Lang waved his hands helplessly and said: "Okay! You can figure it out! Anyway, this broken tower will catch fire sooner or later, it doesn''t matter if it doesn''t catch fire today." After speaking, he walked out directly, and couldn''t help but think in his heart, it seems that the cultural level of the soldiers in the army needs to be further improved! How can you not even make a basic time bomb! Although, he himself will not. However, Fang Lang attaches great importance to the Marine Corps under him. Not to mention cultivating them all to be as powerful as the US Navy SEALs in later generations, let''s cultivate a small special operations unit no matter what! Actually, it doesnt matter whether the five-story building is burned or not, even if the Japanese know that they have evacuated the place, so what? If I ask myself what I want, I will have to go to court with them. How much of it is Japan''s own stuff, and how much is someone else''s. The big deal is to donate things to my hometown at that time, and everyone will break up. Anyway, Fang Lang doesn''t think he will lose money. Actually, the five-storied building in Tennoji Temple in Tokyo was also burned down in 1957, and Japan did not rebuild the five-storied building in Tokyo afterwards. The cause of the fire is unknown. After leaving the five-storied building, everyone boarded the truck, and the long and ostentatious team left Tennoji Temple under the guidance car arranged by Colonel Jason. Fang Lang, who was sitting in the car, was actually very disturbed. Although, Colonel Jason repeatedly assured him that he would be able to leave Tokyo safely with his harvest. However, there is still a Japanese overlord MacArthur in Tokyo, as well as a League President and the Japanese government. I want to lead such a huge convoy out of Tokyo swaggeringly under the eyes of so many powerful forces, and ship all the goods away smoothly. This difficulty is not ordinary. Once discovered, not to mention a court-martial, at least the possibility of the three of them wanting to divide the shipment is not great. Along the way, Fang Lang slowly discovered the problem. Although the sky hadn''t fully brightened yet, it had already begun to reveal the white belly, that is, it was in the state of being about to light up. Along the way, Fang Lang didn''t even see a single Japanese, except for the sentry posts set up by the US military. I was a little worried about whether Jason would cheat on others, and after killing himself, he would swallow the wealth all by himself. Marik on the side had a nonchalant expression, looking very relaxed and comfortable, and even had time to share with Fang Lang his views on Tokyo buildings on the road. It looks like he entered the construction industry in advance. Although Fang Lang''s sixth sense did not indicate any danger, Fang Lang still couldn''t help but said to Malik beside him: "Malik, we are swaggering through Tokyo like this, are you sure you won''t be discovered by others?" Malik looked at Fang Lang suspiciously and said: "We are the U.S. Army! Don''t you want to sneak through downtown Tokyo without swaggering?" Uh! This remark made Fang Lang a little overwhelmed, but after thinking about it for a while, he felt that it made sense. Looking at Fang Lang''s expression, Malik seemed to understand Fang Lang''s worry, and said with a smile: "Don''t worry! Fang, a fire near the palace is enough for Jason to apply for martial law. Don''t you see the roadblocks set up by soldiers at every intersection? Now, except for us US troops, no one can move freely in Tokyo City, so you can put your heart into it. Nobody can stop us from getting rich. " Malik''s confident expression can be regarded as infected Fang Lang, and I have to say that it was indeed a wise decision for Colonel Rajson to join the team. Without the help of this local snake, not to mention the bombardment of the Jinguo Temple, it is estimated that even people would not be able to be sent to Tokyo. Even if it is sent in, it may not be able to withdraw, after all, I am not an American. Fang Lang still has this force. In Fang Lang''s fear, the convoy traveled through most of the Tokyo city area and arrived at the Tokyo Bay Wharf. The convoy drove directly to the pier under the guidance of the defenders, and the stevedores who did not know where they were found started the loading and unloading work immediately. This made Fang Lang have to sigh again, it really shouldn''t be too convenient to guard and steal. Looking at the Japanese workers on the pier, they methodically loaded the goods unloaded from the truck with the seal of the Tokyo National Museum onto the ship. Fang Lang can already think about the fate of these workers. According to his estimation, the possibility of these workers being silenced is as high as 80%. Fang Lang has no objection to this. (end of this chapter) Chapter 121: ready to run Chapter 121 Ready to Run The fire in Tokyo burned for two days and three nights before it was completely extinguished. As for how much damage was caused, Fang Lang didn''t worry about it, and it wasn''t his turn to worry about it. The supply ship full of cargo left the port safely on the night of October 13th, taking away half of the marines, and the remaining soldiers have already driven trucks back to Osaka by land. Fang Lang stayed in Tokyo with his adjutants and guards. Of course, this was not detained or anything. Instead, the Ministry of the Navy of the Brazilian government has officially ordered Fang Lang to lead his troops to evacuate Japan and return to Brazil. Fang Lang has already prepared for this order, so it is not surprising. The reason why Fang Lang still stays in Tokyo is also very simple. The U.S. government promised to sell the warships to the First Fleet of the Brazilian Navy at a low price and deliver them at the Yokosuka Naval Port. These include a Cleveland-class cruiser, two Fletcher-class destroyers, and a small shark-class submarine. There are also two tank landing ships presented by the Americans. These warships are all meritorious warships that have seen the Pacific Naval War, in other words, they are second-hand goods, but Fang Lang doesn''t mind using second-hand goods, as long as they are easy to use. What Fang Lang couldn''t understand the most was why the Americans sent two tank landing ships to Brazil. Don''t they know that Brazil has no tanks at all except for a few tanks in the expeditionary force? Sending tank landing ships but not tanks is no different from giving tableware but not food. However, these are the results of negotiations between the government officials and the US government. Fang Lang can''t say much, at worst, it will be used as a training ship, and he doesn''t have to pay for it anyway. On October 14th, the crew members arranged by the Brazilian Navy Department flew from Brazil to Tokyo on a US military transport fleet. Yes, you read it right, it is the transport fleet, because there are too many people coming over, and the Admiralty is obviously worried about the night and the dream. I don''t know what price it paid, so the United States arranged nearly 30 transport planes, and transported nearly 1,300 crew members directly from Brazil to report to Fang Lang. Fang Lang knew the reason for the eagerness of the Brazilian navy. Obviously, the domestic political situation was already very delicate. I have been staying in the hotel arranged by Colonel Jason, and Fang Lang also enjoyed it very much. Because this place happens to be able to see the orange-red fire scene of Jingguo Shrine in the distance. Although there was an unpleasant smell in the air, Fang Lang felt that the smell was more refreshing than cigars. Looking at the secret numb crowd kneeling outside the toilet of Jingguo God, Fang Lang really wanted to do it again, but unfortunately he could only think about it. But looking at the people crying to death in front of the toilet, Fang Lang''s heart was more satisfied than ever. As the fire in the sacred toilet gradually and completely extinguished, Fang Lang also had to pack up his mood and go to the Yokosuka Naval Port of the US Army to see the specific situation of the battleship first. After all, it is not unreasonable to leave more than 1,300 sailors under his command in Colonel Jason''s barracks and ignore them, and to concentrate on enjoying a bonfire party. In the early morning of October 15th, a light rain washed down the black ash in the sky, making the air, which had been very bad for several days, exude an earthy smell of plant ash, making the air extraordinarily fresh. Fang Lang, under the protection of a group of heavily armed guard platoon soldiers, boarded the car and headed to the Yokosuka Naval Base, also in Tokyo Bay. Yokosuka was originally the base camp of the Japanese Navy. At the same time, as the first landing point for the United States to land in Japan, a large number of warships of the US Pacific Fleet were docked nearby. Therefore, American soldiers can be seen everywhere on the streets of Yokosuka City. It may be that Fang Lang and the others set off earlier. When Fang Lang came to Yokosuka City, Fang Lang could see from time to time in private houses on the side of the road, some American soldiers were saying goodbye to Japanese girls. Obviously, this is the United States that does not return at night. soldier. There are also some soldiers who obviously haven''t sobered up and are staggering towards the barracks. It is basically difficult to see Japanese men on the street, which made Fang Lang feel as if the whole city was serving American soldiers. But this has nothing to do with Fang Lang. What he wants most now is to hurry up and return to Brazil as soon as possible after the handover is completed to stabilize his foundation. Soon Fang Lang''s motorcade stopped in front of a reinforced concrete office building, which is now the US Naval Command in Japan. The first person Fang Lang saw after getting off the car turned out to be John, which made him very puzzled. After all, John is a lieutenant colonel in the logistics department of the Fifth US Aircraft Carrier Fleet. However, the current Fifth Aircraft Carrier Fleet should return to the Hawaiian Naval Port. How could it appear in the US Naval Command in Japan! Before Fang Lang could ask his doubts, John had already stepped forward and gave Fang Lang a big hug. "Haha Fang, isn''t it a surprise!" "John, why are you here?" Of course I was very happy to see my old friend Fang Lang, so I hugged John tightly. "I''m now transferred to the U.S. Naval Command in Japan!" John tilted his neck proudly and said. Fang Lang thought that his neck was uncomfortable, but after following John''s gaze carefully, he found that the oak leaves on the armband of John''s military uniform had been replaced with eagle marks. "Wow! John, are you already a Navy captain? Congratulations!" Seeing that Fang Lang finally discovered the changes in himself, the smile on John''s face became even wider, and his expression of satisfaction was beyond words. "It''s average! Don''t expect me to salute you when we meet in the future!" This made Fang Lang laugh out loud. He didn''t expect John to care so much about this. But after thinking about it, I was relieved. After all, when the two separated, John was a major, and Fang Lang was just a second lieutenant. By the time the two met on the Pacific battlefield, Fang Lang was already a colonel, and John was only a lieutenant colonel, which made John a little embarrassed. Now everyone''s military ranks are finally the same, of course John will be very proud! It is naturally inappropriate for two senior military officers to laugh and laugh at the gate of the US Navy Command in Japan. Therefore, John took the lead to stop the laughter and said to the other side: "Let''s go! Let''s talk as we walk." Fang Lang came here today for business, so he definitely can''t go directly to catch up with old friends. can only say a little awkwardly: "John, you may have to wait for me. I have to go to the headquarters to do some business. When my work is done, I ask you to have a good meal." As a result, John laughed and raised the briefcase in his hand and said: "Of course there must be a big meal, otherwise your business will not go smoothly!" Seeing John''s actions, Fang Lang still didn''t understand that John was the person in charge of arranging the warship with him! This is really a big surprise! If an unfamiliar person is in charge of this work, Fang Lang might have to take out some American native products to open the way for the strength of his fleet. However, with the relationship between Fang Lang and John, Fang Lang believes that even if he doesn''t say anything, the warship he gets will definitely not be bad. "Haha. So you are the one who is in charge of docking with me! Then what are you waiting for, let''s set off quickly. I can tell you that if the warship given to me is not a good one, I will not spare you!" As he spoke, he directly pulled John into his car. John looked at Fang Lang''s guard platoon, and couldn''t help but enviously said: "Why do you have a guard platoon when everyone is a colonel, but I don''t have any guards?" Fang Lang really can''t answer this question, because he doesn''t know much about the situation of the US military, and he doesn''t know what the situation of a colonel in the US Navy should be. But after thinking about it, he still opened his mouth and said: "Isn''t it simple without a guard? Isn''t it enough to pay for a beautiful secretary?" As a result, John looked at Fang Lang in surprise and said: "How do you know I have a female secretary?" Now it''s Fang Lang''s turn to be envious. American officers can be matched with beautiful secretaries. Are you sure this will not affect the combat effectiveness of the army? "You already have a beautiful secretary? Then why don''t you bring it out for me to meet, don''t be so stingy! Don''t worry, our Chinese tradition is that a friend''s wife can''t be bullied. I will never attack your secretary." "Don''t worry! You have no chance. She was recommended by my father and is already a mother of two children. Are you sure you want to meet?" Upon hearing this, Fang Lang''s enthusiasm disappeared instantly. "You Americans are so inhumane, how can you let the mother of two children continue to work for you! Why should you be young and beautiful to improve your combat effectiveness!" John also nodded in deep agreement: "I have the same idea as you, but unfortunately I can''t make the decision. He used to be one of my father''s secretaries, and now my father recommended him to work here." What''s the situation, the U.S. Navy Rear Admiral gave his right-hand secretary to his son? Fang Lang quickly thought of a possibility. "Is General Clark also on the disarmament list? He is a major general!" "I didn''t expect you to be so well informed that you actually knew the news that the United States was going to disarm. Father is indeed planning to retire, but he applied on his own initiative. After all, the war has already been won. He wants to go back to spend time with his mother, go fishing, and live a leisurely life. " "Then you decide to continue working in the Navy? The war is over, don''t you want to live an easy life?" I also want to live a more relaxed life, but my father talked to me and he suggested that I continue to work in the army. Actually, I know very well that he doesnt really want to retire. Its just that as a minority, he has no room for promotion. If he continues to stay in the army, he should also retire from the combat unit. Leaving now can save a decent place for myself. After he retires, I will not be directly dismissed, so that our family can continue to leave a certain influence in the US military. So, you get the idea! " Hearing John say these words so bluntly, Fang Lang understood why John was transferred to the US Naval Command in Japan to work. This is obviously planned in advance. It seems that General Clark is really not a simple character! (end of this chapter) Chapter 122: return journey Chapter 122 Return On the way from the U.S. Naval Command in Japan to the military port, a heavily armed convoy was led by two Willys jeeps, followed by a Nissan 70 officer''s car, followed by two trucks. Although all the fighters are equipped with American equipment, they have a cobra armband with a pipe hanging on their arms. Yes, this is Fang Lang''s team. Fang Lang in the car heard what John said, and couldn''t help but patted him on the shoulder and said: "I didn''t expect you to make such a big move. You don''t have to be sad. I believe that uncle is not the only general who retired. Since he chose to retreat bravely, he must have his own considerations. I think this is actually good. Think about it, is the major general in an army of more than 10 million people better, or the colonel in an army of more than one million people? I think your father is really a shrewd person. He used his retirement to send you to a higher position. You must not let him down! " John looked Fang Lang up and down carefully before saying: "Fang, chatting with you always allows me to discover problems from different angles. I have to say that your analysis is very reasonable. Now I am in a much better mood." Fang Lang didn''t want to continue discussing the matter of General Clark''s retirement, after all, it wasn''t a happy thing. "Then now, shouldn''t you show me the warship you prepared for me?" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, John smiled, and directly took out a file bag from his briefcase and said: "According to the decommissioning plan, the number of the first batch of decommissioned warships is quite large. But you must also understand that the latest and best warships will definitely not be decommissioned directly now. So, I can only find you the best warship among the first batch of decommissioned warships, I hope you can understand. " Fang Lang had expected this situation, and the first to be eliminated must be the worst. If you choose the best from the worst, you can only choose the general from the dwarfs. "No problem, I trust your eyesight. I only wear eyes when I come here today. If you let me see the ship, I will see that ship." Fang Lang said this not to mean that he was really completely resigned to John''s arrangements, but based on his understanding of John, the more he expressed his trust in John, the less John would let him suffer. He will never really make the decision for Fang Lang. After all, this is not a private matter between two people, but a major event between two countries. According to normal procedures, for such a big matter, it is definitely not that Fang Lang can directly decide which warship to want, but a huge investigation team should be sent to conduct a detailed inspection of each warship. Then, after lengthy discussions, the target warship is finally determined. However, in this special period, domestic affairs are too busy. The Ministry of the Navy is obviously not in the mood. The most important thing is to delay this matter for too long, and to cut the mess quickly and drive the warship back. And the U.S. military obviously knows the current situation, and the relationship between Fang Lang and John must be clear, otherwise, how could it be so coincidental to arrange for John to meet Fang Lang! Actually, according to Fang Lang''s mind, he hopes to wait until the domestic situation becomes clear before taking over the warship. Because General Dutra, who overthrew President Vargas, is also a pro-American figure. Once it is determined that General Dutra will rule Brazil, then the support of the United States for Brazil will definitely be different from what it is now. Judging from the fact that the United States was able to promote Brazil to become the fourth permanent member of the United Nations besides the United States, the Soviet Union, and the United Kingdom after General Dutra came to power, the United States should treat Brazil as its own son. Of course, this proposal was not adopted in the end. Think about how absurd this proposal is. Regardless of whether Britain will agree, Brazil is obviously the younger brother of the United States and has no corresponding political status at all. Based on the position of the Soviet Union at the time, it was impossible for this matter to have the slightest hope. Maybe someone is wondering if it is not the five permanent members? How did it become three? The reason is that after the United States proposed that Brazil was opposed by Britain and the Soviet Union, the United Kingdom proposed France as the fourth permanent member for the benefit of Europe. At that time, Charles de Gaulle in France was very anti-American, so the Soviet Union directly voted in favor, thus becoming four permanent members of the Security Council. Obviously, the four countries tend to have the same number of votes when they vote. This is how the current Wuchang came into existence, of course this is a long way off. From this, it can be seen that the relationship between the United States and Brazil was very good during General Dutra''s administration. Of course, the reason why the Brazilian military wants to receive warships as soon as possible is that the military is not sure that General Dutra will be able to succeed. As a latecomer, Fang Lang knows history, but he can''t say that I know that the army is about to succeed in a coup d''etat! Therefore, it can only be carried out according to the order of the Ministry of the Navy, and come to receive the warship. John really did as Fang Lang thought, took out two documents from the file bag and said: "I have already selected other warships directly for you, but this Cleveland-class cruiser has decommissioned a total of five ships this time. I am hesitant between the two warships. You should see for yourself and make a decision!" After listening to John''s words, Fang Lang was not polite, and directly picked up two documents to check. After all, this is his future flagship, so he can''t be sloppy. Although the Cleveland-class cruisers in the United States are light cruisers, their displacement has reached 12,000 tons, even surpassing many heavy cruisers. The ship is 180 meters long, 20 meters wide, and has a maximum speed of 32.5 knots. During the war, due to the lack of aircraft carriers, the U.S. military directly converted the nine unfinished Cleveland-class cruisers on the berth into Independence-class light aircraft carriers. From here, it can be seen that the Cleveland-class cruiser is a big guy. And the reason why John let Fang Lang decide for himself is also very simple, two Cleveland-class cruisers. One was built in the first batch in the early days. Because it is experimental in nature, the warship has many defects. But it was very lucky during the war, it didn''t receive any damage, it was a lucky warship. The other one is newly built, and many early defects have been improved. It''s a pity that I was hit by a kamikaze plane once in the Pacific naval battle. Fortunately, the injury was very light. After returning to the factory for repairs, I just returned to the army and the war was over. Seeing these two warships, Fang Lang hesitated a little. In fact, the navy is quite superstitious. The lucky attribute of the first warship is very pleasing. But the defects of the warship made Fang Lang very entangled. Fang Lang looked at the two documents again and again, and finally chose the latest one. Although he was slightly injured, fortunately the location of the injury is not important. And has been completely fixed without any impact. Fang Lang really wanted to learn the American way of building ships on this warship. Seeing that Fang Lang had chosen his target, John was relieved, and he didn''t have to worry about it anymore. In this way, the two have not yet arrived at the port, and the future warships of the Brazilian Navy''s First Fleet have basically been determined. The rest of the thing is basically a cutscene. After the two visited several warships, John dragged Fang Lang to see the other warships that he had not selected. And commented and analyzed each warship. After all, it was from a naval family. The warships John selected for Fang Lang were indeed generals drawn from dwarfs. In order to express my gratitude, I did not return to Tokyo that night, but under the guidance of John, I had a good experience of the Japanese izakaya culture in Yokosuka. These are two completely different styles from what Fang Lang experienced in his previous life. When Fang Lang walked into the private room of the izakaya under the guidance of a petite Japanese girl in a kimono. Two Japanese girls, also wearing kimonos standing by the sliding door, knelt on the ground, beckoned Fang Lang to lift his feet, and lightly hugged Fang Lang''s legs in his arms and took off his military boots John, who looked at the other side, had a calm expression, obviously not like Fang Lang who had never seen the world at all. "Hey John, you should have brought me here sooner, you know?" "Don''t you already have Lilith? What do you want to do here?" "Didn''t you invite me to drink? It doesn''t matter." "But you just told me that you won''t go back tonight." "I came to you, I must follow your arrangement! Where should I go back?" "Fang, you look like me when you are shameless! Haha" "It is impossible for an upright person like me to be corrupted by beauty. If you don''t believe me, you can call some more to test me." Both of them laughed. On such an occasion, they would definitely not talk about business. As good brothers, it was the first time that we came together in such a cool place. Fang Lang unconsciously felt that his relationship with John had taken another step. No wonder people say that there are four irons in life! It really makes sense! In the early morning of October 16, before the mist in Tokyo Bay cleared, the First Fleet of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force led by Fang Lang had already set off from the Yokosuka Naval Base. They need to join the House from Osaka and the supply ship full of trophies, take the marines to Hawaii and then return to Brazil. As for the reason for going to Hawaii, Fang Lang wanted to join the first batch of immigrant ships from his hometown. (end of this chapter) Chapter 123: migrant Chapter 123 Immigration On the Pacific Ocean in the Far East, an ocean-going cargo ship departing from Shanghai is sailing. As a farmer born in Baoding Prefecture, Wang Tiezhu took such a huge ship for the first time. After the initial freshness, now there is only endless pain left, and yes, as someone who has never been on a boat, he is seasick. The first meal after boarding the boat was too rich for Wang Tiezhu, so he let go of his stomach, and it was a pleasure to eat. Unfortunately, shortly after he went to sea, he vomited out all the undigested food. Although it was terribly uncomfortable, Wang Tiezhu still felt that he was really a prodigal. Because there was beef in my food today, and in the end, I completely vomited it out. Looking at the long row of companions lying on the ship''s side vomiting, Wang Tiezhu felt that the labor service company shouldn''t allow them to eat so well. How much food would be wasted! After finally suppressing the urge to vomit, the big embolus not far away spat out a mouthful of yellow water. The unpleasant smell brought back the feeling of vomiting that had just been suppressed. The voice of the culture teacher of the labor service company came from behind: "Persevere, everyone, seasickness is a normal physiological phenomenon, and everyone will get used to it gradually, and I will prepare mouthwash for you later. Brother who is better, please come here to rest! " "Sir, I''m dying, can you let me go back?" "Haha. Don''t worry! You won''t die. We are nearly 200 nautical miles away from Shanghai. Are you going to swim back? Also, everyone should remember that you are no longer soldiers, and I am not an officer. I am just your cultural teacher. You can call me Wang Zhihao or Mr. Wang. I am responsible for teaching you some things to pay attention to in Brazil before you arrive in Brazil. When we arrive in Brazil, we are all Chinese compatriots. We should help each other and help each other like we are on a boat now. That way you won''t be bullied by foreigners. " Most of the first batch of immigrants who boarded the ship had a common experience, that is, they had been puppet soldiers. Wang Tiezhu is one of them. Originally, he was a farmer farming in the countryside of Baoding Prefecture, and he had also heard about the trouble in Dongyang, but he felt that it had nothing to do with him, and he only needed to plant his own land well. As a tenant of Wang Youcai''s family, a big family in the village, even if something happened, Wang Youcai should be worried. Suddenly one day, Wang Mingshui, the second son of Wang Youcai''s family who was a junior officer in Baoding City, returned to the village and said that he would recruit people from the village to eat imperial food with him. Wang Tiezhu was not interested at first, but Wang Mingshui, who was wandering around in the village, immediately took a fancy to Wang Tiezhu. Who made him tall and big, so he was a good material to block a gun? In this way, Wang Youcai gave his father five oceans of settlement expenses, and Wang Tiezhu became Wang Mingshui''s soldier, and followed Wang Mingshui to Baoding City. Wang Tiezhu met Xiao Dongyang for the first time, watching Wang Mingshui fawning over Xiao Dongyang who was as short as a little chicken like a slave. The title "dog leg" involuntarily popped up in his mind. However, this has nothing to do with him. He is only a soldier for food, and he will work for whoever pays him. This is what the veterans in the team told him. He also thought it was true, and then he followed Wang Mingshui from Baoding Mansion all the way south. Although he did not undergo any strict training, he also fought several times. Although he didn''t understand why he followed Xiao Dongyang to beat his own people, but since he was paid by his boss, he had to listen to his boss. This work is not as tiring as farm work, but it is also very dangerous. Fortunately, Wang Tiezhu can barely make ends meet. After a few years in this way, suddenly one day, Xiao Dongyang surrendered, and as Xiao Dongyang''s henchman Wang Mingshui also surrendered. After the surrender, Wang Mingshui was very frightened and moved around, giving away many good things he had collected in the past few years. Wang Tiezhu was very happy, because surrendering meant that he would no longer have to fight or run around, and could finally go home to accompany his parents. Maybe I can find a daughter-in-law when I go home and continue farming for Wang Youcai. Its a pity that things backfired. I dont know how Wang Mingshui found the relationship. He wanted to send all these small soldiers to work as laborers. At first, Wang Tiezhu was very apprehensive, worried that he would be sold as a piglet as the old people in the village said. After boarding the big ship, I found that it was completely different from what I imagined. Not only food and housing were included here, but also clothes and hair. The food I ate was better than when I was a puppet soldier. The people here speak nicely and are polite to others. I heard that they are going to teach everyone how to read and write, which makes Wang Tiezhu very happy. Old Wangs family has been illiterate for three generations. He even had the opportunity to be able to read and write. As a result, he had just seen the power of the sea just after he went out to sea. The conversations that came from his ears from time to time also cheered up his uncomfortable body, and he asked weakly. "Are all the foreigners that Mr. Wang said are as bad as Xiao Dongyang?" "There are many kinds of foreigners, and the little Dongyang you mentioned is just one of them. There are good people and bad people among these people. But you don''t have to worry when you arrive in Brazil, because we have backers in Brazil. Our backer is Mr. Fang Langfang. He is now a powerful figure in the Brazilian Navy, and he is a majestic figure with his own fleet. After we went to Brazil, we mainly worked in Mr. Fangs factory. After you earn money, you can buy land and settle down in Brazil with the help of our local Chinese organization, and start a new life. " "But what if none of us speak foreign languages?" Dont worry, we will live together most of the time after arriving in Brazil, so there is no need to worry about language communication becoming a barrier. After living in Brazil for a few years, you will naturally be able to learn some simple foreign languages. Even if you cant learn it, it doesnt matter. We have been living in the Chinese community. " "Can we really buy land and settle down in Brazil? How long can we save money to buy land after working!" "Of course! I have my own land in Brazil! Brazil has a vast land and few people, and the land price is very cheap. As for how long you can buy land, it depends on whether you can bear hardships then. Working in Mr. Fang''s factory is hard work, more pay, as long as you work hard enough, the more you work, the more money you will earn. If you have special skills, you can earn more. For example, some of you have worked in factories and can repair machinery and equipment. Such people can get high wages in factories. " "But what if I only know how to farm!" "Yes! I only know how to farm!" "I''ve been a mason at home, is that considered a craft?" "I know how to make wine, does it count?" "Forging iron, does it count?" "Our family''s ancestral woodworking skills!" Everyone began to talk about their skills, obviously hoping that they can quickly live a good life in a foreign country. Wang Tiezhu didn''t know whether he had vomited up everything, or he heard the good news, and he began to look forward to a better life in the future, and even the symptoms of seasickness improved a lot. Just like this, everyone is on the boat, chatting with each other, listening to the teachers planning a bright future for them. Unknowingly, the teachers began to include some information about the Chinese experience abroad and the unfair treatment they received, why Fang Lang organized everyone to go to Brazil, etc. After a long voyage of more than a week, everyone met the fleet led by Mr. Fang that the instructor kept mentioning in the waters of Hawaii. When they saw Mr. Fang''s majestic and huge warships passing by the immigrant ship. The sense of security in everyone''s hearts burst instantly, and their vision for a better future became firmer, and they couldn''t help but began to thank Mr. Fang. The idea of ??uniting with Mr. Fang and creating a new world in Brazil became more and more firm in the teacher''s mouth. What everyone on board didn''t know was that Fang Lang, who had just passed by everyone at this time, was not in such a good mood. It turned out that Fang Lang''s friend Major Blackwell, who worked in the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, told him very bad news just now. In the Brazilian Parliament, some members proposed to nationalize the shipyard Fang Lang plans to build in Sao Paulo. Obviously this is a very dangerous signal. The current parliament actually belongs to the faction of President Vargas, so it is foreseeable that this is a temptation by President Vargas to Fang Lang or the entire pro-American faction. However, Fang Lang felt innocent! Although I am indeed a representative of the pro-American faction on the surface, a small guy like myself is not qualified to participate in such a big matter as launching a coup! This means that I am a bully! Since you''re forcing me to choose sides, then I''m not going to be polite. Other candidates chose to take political risks, but I stood by looking at the future through the fog of history. It turned out that I had been scruples that Vargas would be re-elected president in 1951. Therefore, I don''t want to make the relationship with him too rigid. But this kind of behavior that treats him like a persimmon is not something he can bear. "Hello, General Morais!" "Hello Colonel Fang, I heard that you have completed the formation of the First Fleet and are returning home?" General Morais'' voice was very calm, without any emotional fluctuations at all. "Yes, General, I have just arrived in Hawaii. Now there is one thing I need to consult with you. I don''t know if it is convenient!" "Sure, please!" "I heard that some congressman proposed to nationalize the shipyard that our family is building?" "Fang, your news is very well-informed! But don''t worry, this matter will not happen. I promised you that as long as the shipyard lands in Brazil, I will **** him. Never let any force affect his development. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 124: admission Chapter 124 Entry Fang Lang was relieved when he heard General Morais'' assurance. Although Fang Lang didn''t understand why it was not Morais, the Marshal of the Expeditionary Force, who organized the coup, but the Minister of Army of the Expeditionary Force. But Fang Lang knew that General Morais was definitely not in the presidential line. Fang Lang took the initiative to contact General Morais, just to test the general''s attitude towards this matter. He now chooses to stand in line, what he needs is to show his position to General Dutra. This matter obviously cannot be done through General Morais. Now in Brazil, as far as Fang Lang knows, the one who clearly belongs to General Dutra''s department is Colonel Tici, commander of the Rio de Janeiro Naval Base. Therefore, he contacted Colonel Teach without hesitation. "Fang, I heard that you are ready to go back to Brazil?" "Brother Titch, I didn''t expect everyone to care so much about my whereabouts! Why didn''t I know that I was so important!" "Haha Fang, you have to understand that in this special period, if the balance of power of any party is broken, it will cause violent reactions." "Oh! Which side do you all assign me to?" "Hey. Which side do you belong to? Only you know! It''s up to us to decide." "Then which side do you think I should belong to?" "I think you belong on your own side lol" "Brother Titch, do you know? I just received news that someone is going to get my hands on my shipyard." "I have heard, but don''t worry, this proposal has not been passed." "Oh! Has it been rejected? I haven''t received this message yet!" "Yes, both the Social Democrats and the National League in parliament voted against it!" "It seems that after returning to China, I have to express my gratitude to the congressmen of the two parties!" "Why wait until you return to your country?" Colonel Teach asked this question, Fang Lang was taken aback for asking, yes! Why do you have to wait until you return home? Although my father has not returned to Brazil, there are still uncles in the family who can be responsible for expressing goodwill to these two parties! Uncle Yang Zong''s eldest son, Yang Gan, works in the Sao Paulo city government! This may be an opportunity to support your own political spokesperson! "Brother Titch, you are right. I will have someone come to express my gratitude directly on my behalf. I have one more thing to ask you for today. I hope you can help me?" "Fang, we are brothers, please speak up if you need it." "Please help me to bring a word to General Dutra, just say that I have served under his command, and I am now." "Fang, are you serious?" "Of course, I don''t joke about this kind of thing." "Welcome to the brothers!" Hearing what Colonel Teach said, Fang Lang smiled, and he was officially standing in line. Originally, Fang Lang thought that this matter would come to an end with his statement. As a result, Fang Lang received a personal call from General Dutra that night. This flattered Fang Lang, and the two parties cordially exchanged views on the current situation in the conference call. Fang Lang expressed his desire for democratic politics, and received a warm response from General Dutra. At the same time, General Dutra consulted Fang Lang on the chaos of Brazilian Japanese descent. Fang Lang also expressed his opinion on this matter. And he prepared a plan to immigrate from his hometown to Brazil on a large scale, and made a detailed report to General Dutra. He received the general''s clear support and highly praised the outstanding performance of Chinese soldiers on the battlefield. General Dutra also stated that he will give all-round support to the Fanglang family''s investment in Brazil. The two ended the call in a cordial and friendly atmosphere. This call made Fang Lang''s gloomy mood suddenly cloudy and sunny. It seems that my first investment in the domestic political situation in Brazil is a small profit and a big profit! In the final analysis, you still need money and power. As the commander of the first ocean-going fleet with the latest equipment and the largest scale in Brazil, Fang Lang now has a certain political influence in the country. At the same time, the family''s domestic investment and close relationship with American capital also gave the domestic pro-American political group the National League a natural sense of closeness. Since I have chosen to choose sides, I can''t just express support verbally, I have to make more substantive actions. Although the current army strength is not strong, there is only a Marine Corps battalion of 500 people. However, Fang Lang believes that the combat effectiveness of his own battalion must easily surpass a regiment of the Brazilian army. Therefore, Fang Lang contacted General Clark in Hawaii, and used ten transport planes to urgently transport 500 marines in his fleet to Natal, the base of the First Fleet in Brazil. Fang Lang naturally flew directly to Natal with the team. Natal is the continent closest to Africa in the northeast of Brazil, with a hot and dry climate. When the U.S. military leased this city from the Brazilian government, it was just a small town with a population of less than 80,000 people. Since the start of the North African campaign, the United States transported materials from the United States to Natal, and then directly transported them to North Africa by air. This route has greatly shortened the itinerary of material turnover. Therefore, the US military has built a complete military airport, naval port and logistics warehouse here. The population of this city has also rapidly increased to 120,000. Yes, you read that right, it is 120,000, which is smaller than the population of a modern town. With the end of the war, the U.S. military in Natal is about to withdraw, and the Brazilian Navy placed Fang Lang''s First Fleet here, naturally for the perfect facilities here. When Fang Lang''s plane landed at Natal Airport, it was already late at night on October 24th. Only the aviation and ground crew of the First Fleet greeted Fang Lang at the airport. As for the guards of the base, they have to wait for Fang Lang to officially take over the base before they can start to settle in. Because the North African campaign had ended long ago, this base has actually been out of use for some time. Most of the personnel have been evacuated, making this huge base look deserted, with very few lights. Fang Lang, who got off the plane, was not familiar with the aviation and ground staff at the base, but all the soldiers knew that the young colonel in front of him was their officer. So everyone took the initiative to come forward, and enthusiastically welcomed Fang Lang! Although Fang Lang was very tired, he still talked to each pilot very kindly, matching them with the list of personnel in the information he saw. Early the next morning, Major Mike of the US military base took the initiative to find Fang Lang who had just woken up, and couldn''t wait to pull Fang Lang to hand over the entire base. This deserted base because the U.S. military left, let Fang Lang see the wealth of the U.S. military. Tall reinforced concrete office buildings, dormitories for officers and soldiers, hangars, aircraft maintenance workshops, huge warehouses, jeeps and trucks parked in the open space, anti-aircraft artillery positions, coastal defense artillery positions, etc. It is a wharf that can park more than 300,000-ton ships at the same time. There are actually four docks and corresponding equipment that are dedicated to repairing ships beside the wharf. Five spacious concrete airport runways, aircraft maintenance workshop and two suspected C46 transport aircraft waiting for maintenance. "Major Mike, are you sure you won''t take all the supplies here?" Looking at Fang Lang''s surprised expression that has never seen the world. Major Mike smiled and said: "Yes, Mr. Colonel, including some materials in the warehouse, they are all yours. This is the list." As he spoke, he handed over a list. Fang Lang didn''t wait to open it to check, he was afraid that he would not be able to help but laugh out loud. "Mike, I saw that there seem to be two C46 aircraft waiting for maintenance in the aircraft maintenance workshop. I don''t know if they still have a chance to fly into the blue sky." Of course, all the parts have been shipped to the warehouse, but you may need to find a mechanic yourself. Major Mike shrugged. "Mike, if I say I need ten C46 planes, I wonder if you can help get them." "Uh! Didn''t you come here on a transport plane last night?" "I''m on secondment from the Hawaiian Naval Base, and they''re going back today." Major Mike looked at Fang Lang suspiciously, not understanding what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd. Since he was capable of being seconded to a US military transport plane, why did he ask himself for help. Fang Lang saw Mike''s doubts, and whispered: "I mean, I want to buy ten C46s for myself. I don''t know if you have a connection." "Private Purchase?" "Yes, the C46 will be delivered within two days and can be put into use immediately." "What price can you offer?" Fang Lang originally just asked with the mentality of giving it a try, but he didn''t expect that the other party could really simply ask what price he could give. Obviously, it can be obtained! Suppressing the ecstasy in his heart, Fang Lang gritted his teeth and said: "Eight thousand dollars each!" "It''s low, at least twelve thousand, and the goods will arrive tomorrow morning." Mike''s crispness is unexpected. Fang Lang knew that 12,100 C46 transport planes were cheap, of course, but he couldn''t agree so simply. "Mike, this is paid by me personally, so can it be cheaper, I can accept $10,000 a plane." "Colonel Fang, although we are meeting for the first time. But, let me tell you the truth, I can get the plane, but I need to get through a lot of joints and go through a lot of procedures, all of which need money. I think you should understand that for a large transport aircraft like the C46, ??the price of 12,000 is really very favorable. For less than this price, I guess it will be difficult to get it in such a short time. " Hearing what Major Mike said, Fang Lang had to start to look at him with admiration. This man obviously had a complete arms sales channel in his hands. "Mike, I want to know, what else can you get besides C46?" Seeing the vigilance on Major Mike''s face, Fang Lang quickly explained: "Don''t get me wrong, I want to say that maybe we can cooperate for a long time, because if the price of buying equipment from you is lower than the price from the government, maybe I can buy a lot of equipment directly from you in the future." Fang Lang''s words obviously made Major Mike''s eyes light up. "I don''t know what equipment Colonel Fang wants! I work in the General Logistics Department of the US Army. As long as you ask me for a request, I will quote you according to the situation." Doesnt this mean that as long as you want, I can get it for you, of course, the premise is that you can afford it. (end of this chapter) Chapter 125: information Chapter 125 Message Looking at Major Mike''s confident expression, Fang Lang knew that he was not joking, so he thought about it and tried: "Aircraft carrier?" Originally thought that Major Mike would directly express that he was powerless. Unexpectedly, Major Mike shook his head and said: "This won''t work, and you won''t be able to use it if you get it." Are you sure you are just a major, is this the confidence a major should have? It''s not that you can''t get an aircraft carrier, but you can''t use it if you get it. But since Major Mike has such confidence, there is nothing else to say. "Can you get B29?" Major Mike still said calmly: "How much do you want?" Now it was Fang Lang''s turn to feel a little numb. See what this means is really possible! "I don''t know what the unit price is." "There are many types of B29, and the prices are different. The bomber that has been in service for a long time can cost at least 300,000 U.S. dollars. The latest reconnaissance aircraft model costs 700,000 U.S. dollars." Hearing this price, Fang Lang couldn''t help but gasp. Although Fang Lang knew that this was the latest strategic bomber from the United States, the price was definitely not cheap. However, this offer still frightened Fang Lang, shaking his head repeatedly and thinking that he couldn''t afford it, let''s talk about C46 first! "Does C46 have to be at least twelve thousand?" "I never make random quotations, let''s do this! I believe that we will definitely have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, and I will send you five more Pratt & Whitney R-2800-51 equipped with C46, ??double-row cylinders, radial air-cooled piston engines Five sets. Let you do stock parts. In addition, I will arrange ten flight instructors for you to stay here and teach your ten pilots how to fly C46. " Fang Lang no longer struggled and stretched out his right hand directly. "Happy cooperation!" Mike finally revealed a smiley face. "Happy cooperation!" "Hello! This is the Brazilian branch of Global Trade Co., Ltd., how can I help you?" Fang Lang listened to the sweet beauty coming from the handset, and couldn''t help showing a satisfied smile. It seems that the Brazilian branch is developing well! "I''m looking for Manager Radia Redondo, you tell him my name is Fang Lang." Radia Redondo is the person in charge of the Brazil branch of Global Trade. He is a tall, thin Italian. Fang Lang didn''t have much contact with him, but Redondo knew very well who the boss of Global Trading was. "Okay, wait a minute!" Sure enough, Redondo''s slightly excited voice came from the receiver very quickly: "Hello! Is this Mr. Fang? I''m Radia Redondo." For the employees of his company, Fang Lang didn''t say any polite words, but gave the order himself: "Yes, I am Fang Lang, is it convenient for you to speak now?" Listening to the sound coming from the earpiece, although it was somewhat distorted, Redondo could still recognize who the owner of the sound was. "Please wait!" Soon, Redondos voice came from the receiver: "Mr. Fang, it''s convenient now, please tell me!" "I need you to find a way to spread a message to a specific group of people. It must be kept secret, so that no one can find us. Can it be done?" "Just spreading the word? No problem." "Very good, listen carefully." Although what Fang Lang said on the phone was a little confusing to him, Leidondo still listened to Fang Lang''s words very patiently, and asked repeatedly about what he was not sure about. "Hurry up, you only have three days, understand?" "Mr. Fang, I understand! Arrange immediately." Fang Lang hung up the phone, picked up the cigar next to him, and took a deep breath. In the smog, Fang Lang''s eyes were a little erratic, making it difficult to figure out. Soon, a piece of news began to spread among the Japanese in Brazil, and the winner group and the loser group of the entire Chendomeng organization became even more arguing. "You idiots, didn''t you swear that the British and American ghosts and animals have won? Look, the current Brazilian president wants to surrender to the great empire." "This news is absolutely false. The war is over and Japan has surrendered. How could President Vargas surrender to the Axis powers at this time." "The great empire will never be defeated, you surrenderers should all die." "This news is definitely a conspiracy. Please keep calm. We have to analyze why the empire has already defeated and surrendered, and there is still such news." "You idiots, bastards, do you still believe the so-called news that Japan has been defeated? This news only further proves the invincible strength of the empire." "If the empire wins, I can understand that President Vargas wants to surrender. But why does the news say that the Brazilian military will refuse to surrender! Even wanted to launch a military coup and refused to accept surrender. This doesn''t make any sense at all, the empire won, it should be because the whole country unanimously agreed to surrender! " "These military personnel who refuse to surrender are obviously trained by the British and American ghosts. They must be on the side of the British and American ghosts! You are stupid, but you still don''t want to admit it. What bastards!" "Since you think the empire has won, why did the Brazilian expeditionary force return home victoriously. You are some stubborn bastards." "How do you know that they returned home in victory, not in defeat? Do you believe everything they say? This is obviously the war propaganda of the British and American ghosts, you idiots." The two sides were quarreling with each other, and the winner group was obviously more willing to believe that the news was true. The loser group wants to dissuade everyone from calming down, suspecting that there is some ulterior conspiracy in this matter. But no one can convince anyone. Soon everyone parted ways, and the winners with the same views once again organized a separate gathering to celebrate the great victory of the empire. In the loser group, some people began to waver, not sure if they were really misled by the propaganda. After two days of fermenting, the news is known to almost all Brazilian Japanese. It even reached the ears of other Brazilians, and most Brazilians scoffed at the Japanese so-called news that President Vargas was preparing to surrender to Japan. The paranoia that I thought I was Brazilian-Japanese started to strike again. This made many Brazilians feel that these Japanese people are simply unreasonable. However, some Brazilian intellectuals and politicians saw a different meaning from this news. The recent political situation is so volatile, and President Vargas'' interference in the election has become more and more blatant. The voices of the opposition have become louder and louder. Under this seemingly calm lake, is there really a military coup brewing? After receiving the news, some members of the Labor Party reported the news to President Vargas. "You mean, these Japanese think I''m going to surrender to Japan?" "Your Excellency, as we all know, the war is over. We cannot surrender to a country that has already surrendered. However, the news that the army may launch a coup in this news needs to attract our attention. " "As the parties involved in this news, we can tell at a glance that this is fake news, so there is no need for everyone to be nervous. My rights are granted by the Constitution. The army was single-handedly selected by me, so how could a coup be launched to overthrow me. These are all plots by the Social Democratic Party and the National League to alienate our relationship with the army, so don''t take it seriously. " "Although, this news may not be true. However, I think we''d better be more cautious." "What you said is also reasonable, then order Rio Police Chief Amycus Lechner to monitor the movement of the military!" Similarly, as the other party to this news, the Brazilian military, to be precise, General Dutra, of course also received the wind. When he first heard the news, he also thought it was funny, but then his cold sweat started to flow down. The Japanese actually predicted that he would launch a coup d''etat. Although the reason was very ridiculous, the result was the same result. This annoyed him very much, and he couldn''t help speeding up the pace of deployment. The Brazilian-Japanese winner group finally came up with a decision after two consecutive days of deliberation. That is to fully support President Vargas''s surrender of Japan. As a Japanese, even if you are far away overseas, you must bear the responsibility of being a subject of the empire. In order to defeat the Brazilian military and oppose the military coup of surrender, the Japanese diaspora should take the initiative to protect the safety of President Vargas. For this reason, the Japanese-born winner group began to organize all the personnel, and all members carried weapons, shouting slogans to protect the safety of President Vargas and concentrated in Rio de Janeiro, the capital of Brazil. This annoyed Rio de Janeiro Police Chief Lechner, who had just received the monitoring of the military''s movements. Had to arrange a large number of police forces in the capital for this order. Unknowingly, the time came to October 29th. More than 40,000 Japanese gunmen gathered in Rio, and most of the Japanese men basically joined in. Among them, there are also some fanatical Japanese women. No matter how the Rio police drove them away, the Japanese gunmen confronted the police unmoved, and there were many exchanges of fire. Because they suspect that the police and the military are in the same group. The so-called protection of the presidential palace is actually a house arrest of the president, preventing the president from surrendering to Japan according to his own ideas. At the same time, Fang Lang, who was far away in Natal, was communicating with Colonel Tiqi through an encrypted phone. "Brother Titch, in order to support General Dutra, I have returned to Natal. My five hundred marines are ready to go into battle at any time." "Haha Fang, Natal is a small city, and it won''t have any impact on the overall situation in Rio! You can rest assured and wait for the good news of our victory." "Of course I know that Natal is insignificant, but with five hundred people like me joining, it will definitely provide some support for your actions, won''t it?" "Oh! How do you want to support us! You are far away in Natal! By the time your warship reaches Rio, everything has been settled." (end of this chapter) Chapter 126: Japanese mob Chapter 126 Japanese Mob Fang Lang, who was far away at the Natal Naval Base, was holding a phone and looking at the ten C46 transport planes parked neatly outside the window. The ground crews are changing the U.S. military logo on the fuselage to the Brazilian Navy logo. "Don''t worry! I will definitely arrive in time! Remember when you arrive in Rio, you want to invite me to experience the enthusiasm of Rio girls." After speaking, he smiled and pressed the phone to start redialing. "Hello! Help me pick up General Dutra. I am Fang Lang, commander of the First Fleet of the Navy." "Okay, please wait a moment!" "Fang, this is Dutra." "Your Excellency, General, Fang Lang led five hundred Marines to report to you." Fang Lang''s words were obviously taken aback by Dutra, because the last time he talked with Fang Lang, although everyone was in the same camp. However, there is no indication that they will lead troops to directly support it! Of course, General Dutra must be very satisfied with Fang Lang''s statement. After pondering for a while, General Dutra asked: "Where are you?" General Dutra''s words made the corners of Fang Lang''s mouth curl up, and his mind came to fruition. "Within four hours, my people can reach and control the Rio Airport, and guarantee that no plane will take off from the Rio Airport." Fang Lang''s strength directly exceeded General Dutra''s expectations, so there is nothing to say. Get up directly, stand in front of the map, look at it for a while and say: "At eight o''clock tonight, your men are in charge of occupying the airport and controlling the Voice of Rio radio station." I didn''t expect that there would be two missions. It seems that General Dutra''s manpower is not enough! But Fang Lang didn''t care. With the combat power of his men, he controlled the airport and drove into the city. It shouldn''t be too easy to control a radio station. "Understood, sir." At 7:30 on the night of October 29th, outside the Presidential Palace in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, the police were confronting people of Japanese descent. Rio de Janeiro police chief Lechner, who weighs more than two hundred and fifty catties, is answering the phone in a sentry box in front of the presidential palace, sweating profusely. From his panicked expression and the big beads of sweat on his face, we can see the seriousness of the matter on the phone at this time. Putting down the phone, he seemed to have lost his mind. He seemed to have completely forgotten the tense situation outside the presidential palace, and yelled directly at the subordinates outside: "Everyone, load the bullets and build the fortifications on the spot! Protect the presidential palace. The rebels are entering the city!" The police guarding outside had been confronting the armed Japanese outside for almost a whole day. Whether it is the policeman or the Japanese descendants, they are all highly nervous for a whole day. The policeman who heard the order moved without hesitation, the bolt was pulled, and the sound of the bullet being loaded came out, as if the fuse had been ignited. The Japanese expatriate who came from Sao Paulo to defend the presidential palace, Takase Haruhiko was a worker in a mint factory and a senior member of the winner team of the Shindo League. Although he is only twenty years old and has no military experience, Brazil''s policy of not banning guns also allows him to have good marksmanship. The harvest from hunting every time he rests always allows him to enjoy a hearty barbecue on weekends. As a fanatical believer of Tianhuang, he was ecstatic when he heard that President Vargas was about to surrender to Japan. Once Brazil surrendered to Japan, he was not prepared to continue working in the factory. Instead, he went directly to the outskirts to occupy a farm of his own and let those Brazilians work for him. So he must ensure that President Vargas can surrender to Tianhuang smoothly, and he must not let the Brazilian army stop him. So he does not believe that anyone other than Japanese descendants will protect President Vargas as sincerely as they do. Standing in the crowd and keeping his gun aimed, he felt the danger the first time he saw the opposite police pull the bolt. Without hesitation, he pulled the trigger of his shotgun. At the same time shouted loudly: "The police are going to do something, kill them and protect Vargas." Then fired a second shot. The Japanese people around also saw the actions of the police opposite, and pulled the triggers in their hands one after another. The police were caught off guard, but after all, they had undergone certain training. The uninjured personnel immediately began to seek cover and counterattack. In just an instant, the two sides fired hundreds of bullets. The companions around Takase Haruhiko kept falling down, which made him startled. Weekend hunting, the prey will not shoot him a bullet. At this time, Takase Haruhiko began to tremble in his heart, and wanted to lie on the ground to avoid the bullets. And afraid that he will be treated as a coward by his peers. If you want to retreat, the dense crowd behind you can''t retreat at all. He could only bite the bullet and continue shooting, right? A bullet hit his thigh, making him crooked and almost fell down. The pain in his leg made him cry out "Ah!" However, in this chaotic environment, the pain from his legs actually aroused his fierceness. He squatted down and stepped back, continuing to fire regardless. Soon, another stray bullet hit his right eye and came out from the back of his head. He felt that his eyes went dark, and he didn''t know anything. At this time, the police chief Lechner realized that he had made a fatal mistake. Just as he was about to come forward to explain a few words, he was so frightened by the stray bullets that flew towards him that he fell to the ground. He couldn''t find the usual arrogant and domineering police chief''s posture at all, and some hands and feet wanted to find a bunker. It turned out that the body was too fat, and it got stuck between two obstacles, unable to advance or retreat. Mouth kept chanting: "It''s over, I''m dead, I made a big mistake!" Unfortunately, some mistakes cannot be undone once made. He knew that it was impossible for him to call for a ceasefire at this time. As long as he dared to issue such an order, a large number of his police force would be killed or injured immediately. The only way is to wipe out all the Japanese who surrounded the presidential palace first, and then organize defense against the coming rebels. Therefore, he no longer hesitated, and shouted loudly: "First kill all these Japanese mobs, machine gun fire, kill them, fast." Originally, the police were only responsible for defending the outer line of defense. The real guard force of the presidential palace was a guard battalion. I dont know whether the guard battalion received information about the rebel attack and came to help defend, or was attracted by the gunfire from the outside. Soon came to join the police team and began to suppress the Japanese mobs in the periphery. But there are too many Japanese mobs, there are more than 40,000 people, and all of them are armed. The police and the soldiers of the guard battalion are less than a thousand people. Facing the mob that surrounded the presidential palace, they are like a small boat in a storm, which is in danger of capsizing at any time. Fortunately, the firearms in the hands of the mob were all single-shot firearms, and after the machine gun fire in the hands of the military and police began to shoot, the Japanese mob that had already rushed into the isolation zone finally fell down a large area. Unfortunately, these Japanese mobs were not frightened by the machine gun firepower of the military and police. Death squads are constantly being organized, and they keep rushing forward. There is no tactics at all in this battle, it is a collision of blood and fire, a contest between bullets and flesh. The Brazilian military and police apparently had never experienced such a big scene, and they were actually frightened by the fierce Japanese mob. The first deserters appeared in the police force. After all, they were just some police officers who maintained law and order and supported their families. is not a soldier who has undergone rigorous training. Therefore, less than ten minutes into the war, the Japanese mob began to gain the upper hand, broke through the first line of defense of the police and the guard battalion, and approached the presidential palace. Colonel Tiche, who had just led his marines out of the Rio de Janeiro Naval Base, was at a loss. Didn''t you say that I came to participate in the siege of the presidential palace? Why is it that our team has just set off, but the presidential palace is in full swing. General Dutra of the Army Command was even more ecstatic when he received the news. Originally, he heard that the Japanese had organized 40,000 mobs and planned to help Vargas defend the presidential palace, but he was worried about whether it would have a negative impact on his plan. But it was unexpected that these Japanese descendants would exchange fire with the guards defending the presidential palace first. Since this is the case, can I directly declare to the outside world that it was the Japanese mob who attacked the presidential palace. And I am a righteous teacher representing the Brazilian government to put down the Japanese mob rebellion! Thinking of this, General Dutra directly issued an order to all troops to eliminate the Japanese mob and rescue the hijacked President Vargas. As early as four hours ago, Fang Lang, who was far away at the Natal Naval Base, had gathered all his marines. Facing the map of Rio de Janeiro Airport, a detailed occupation plan was drawn up. Everyone knows what they need to do. Immediately afterwards, he boarded the ten C46 aircraft that Fang Lang had just bought, and the ten pilots who had been trained at the base, as well as the ten flight instructors who followed the aircraft, were directly transported to the airport in Rio de Janeiro. The civil airports of this period are far from being as advanced as the airports of later generations, and the airports that can have a cement runway are quite advanced airports. Rio de Janeiro Airport is the first airport built by Pan American Airlines in Brazil. Therefore, it is an advanced airport with a cement runway. Just now, the Pan Am staff responsible for operating the Rio de Janeiro airport discovered ten uninvited passengers on the radar. However, in this era, there has not been a precedent for directly using aircraft to occupy civilian airports. And there was no war in Brazil, so this anomaly did not attract the attention of air traffic controllers and they were reported. Anyway, there were no planes taking off or landing at this time, so the air traffic controller walked out of the office and looked at the distant sky. I saw ten small black spots in the night sky in the distance, aiming at the runway one by one. Started an orderly descent. With the help of the lights at the airport, the air traffic controller saw the logo of the Brazilian army on the military green fuselage. He was so angry that he cursed and said: "Fuck, these bastards, did they go to the wrong place? This is a civilian airport, what are you military planes doing here?" (end of this chapter) Chapter 127: Vargas era ends Chapter 127 Vargas Era Ends October 29th, at 8:00 pm, at Rio de Janeiro Airport. Looking at the military transport planes landing one after another, the air traffic controller complained and complained, but he didn''t foolishly run over to question. Just when the air traffic controller was about to go back to his radar room to listen to the radio to pass the boring time. As soon as the first transport plane landed, a heavily armed soldier jumped out of the cabin door, and without hesitation raised the weapon in his hand, and rushed towards him. Looking at the rifles in the hands of the soldiers, the air traffic controller trembled with fright, and quickly raised his hands. Basically, there was no obstacle to the control of the airport, and the operation went smoothly beyond Fang Lang''s expectations. This made Fang Lang''s several emergency response plans completely useless. Since the airport has not become an obstacle, after Fang Lang reported the situation here to the headquarters. At the airport, they forcibly confiscated a few vehicles, and led two companies of soldiers to rush to the radio station in the urban area. Fang Lang understood the purpose of General Dutra asking him to control the radio station. Absolutely must not allow information that is not in the interests of General Dutra to be disseminated through radio stations. At 8:23, there was a sudden sound of braking outside the radio station. The common people who were leisurely enjoying the nightlife on the road saw a group of well-armed and murderous soldiers jumping out of the convoy and all kinds of messy vehicles. began to control the gate of the radio station in an orderly manner. Immediately afterwards, they began to attack the three-story building of the radio station in an offensive formation. At first, it caused the surrounding people to scream. After seeing that it was Brazil''s own army guarding the door, they gathered around outside with some curiosity to discuss. Some young people would tsk-tsk from time to time as they watched the soldiers advance inside in a very professional formation, feeling really handsome. Fang Lang''s car followed behind the convoy, and after the soldiers occupied the gate, they drove the car directly into the compound of the radio station. This is not because Fang Lang is careless, but because he has judged based on the performance of the people in the periphery that the Vargas government has not made any security deployments for the radio station at all. Then there is nothing to be polite, just go in! But it is eight o''clock in the evening, and most of the radio station employees are off work, only a few rooms on the left side of the third floor are still lit. It should be the night program. Fang Lang seemed to be returning to his own home, casually looking here and there. As for the gunshots coming from the direction of the presidential palace in the distance, he didn''t bother to pay attention to it! Just on the way from the airport to the radio station, he has already learned about what happened in the presidential palace through wireless radio. As the mastermind behind this matter, Fang Lang did not express any opinions. It''s just that the smile on the corner of his mouth can''t be hidden no matter what. "Report, sir, the radio stations are all under our control without any resistance." "What program is the upstairs doing right now!" "It seems to be playing music, there are only three employees in total." "Okay! Then you tell them that today''s radio station will only play music, and there will be no other programs." "Yes, sir!" The two of them were walking in the office area on the second floor. Fang Lang accidentally found something very familiar to him on a long table in an office. "Hey! Is this a TV? Are there TVs already?" It really can''t be blamed on Fang Lang''s ignorance. Fang Lang really didn''t know the exact time when the TV appeared. Unexpectedly, there is already a TV at this time. Now that you have a TV, your own newspaper office cant just do paper news! Looks like I''m going to have to start a broadcasting station of my own. Since the TV already exists, does it mean that other household appliances already exist? I almost left out the home appliance industry. This industry can make a lot of money! Think about Samsung and Sony in later generations. The future is an era of rapid development of electronic technology! How could I miss such a big piece of cake? "Call the person upstairs to me, I want to ask questions!" "Yes, sir!" Soon the second lieutenant came down from the third floor with two men and a woman. One of the two men is slightly older, about forty years old, a middle-aged white man. The other man was a dark-skinned Indian youth, probably no older than twenty years old. The female is a young white woman who looks twenty-four or five years old. She is not beautiful, but she has a bookish look on her body. The three of them were very nervous when they saw many soldiers on the second floor. "Can any of you tell me who owns this TV set! Do we already have a TV station in Brazil?" Seeing that although Fang Lang was standing among a group of murderous soldiers, his tone was not vicious, and they breathed a sigh of relief. The three looked at each other, and finally the middle-aged Caucasian man stood up and said: "Sir, this TV set was brought back by the director of our radio station when he went to the United States for inspection some time ago. It is said that many American families can already sit at home and watch programs with images through this TV. " "Oh! That means there are no TV shows in Brazil right now?" "Yes, sir! There are no televisions for sale in Brazil." "Great, thanks for your answer! I''m really sorry, the radio station will be under military control these days, so you may have to stay on the radio station for a few days, now I can give you five minutes to call home! " After listening to Fang Lang''s words, several people''s faces turned bitter, but fortunately, nothing happened. At this time, the presidential palace was already in chaos. After nearly a thousand casualties, the Japanese mob successfully occupied the presidential palace. President Vargas sent a message to his cronies as soon as the Japanese mobs fired shots, asking the troops to come and launch a suppression operation. The first to arrive at the presidential palace was not President Vargas'' cronies, but the First Army Division under General Dutra. After the First Army Division arrived at the presidential palace, it directly launched a storm against the Japanese mob occupying the presidential palace without hesitation. Ryuji Hamamoto, the leader of the winner group of the Japanese Ministerial League, is hiding outside the door of the president''s office and shouting at President Vargas. "Mr. President, our Chen Dao League firmly supports your surrender to His Majesty Tianhuang, please trust us, we will never hurt you, we are here to protect you." Vargas, who was stuck in the office, heard the translator around him, and he almost went crazy when he translated the words of the Japanese outside the door. When did I say that I would surrender to the Japanese! This is simply a joke in the world, even a fool would not surrender to a country that has already surrendered! "Go and tell him, I will never surrender to the **** Japanese Tianhuang." The translator hurriedly repeated a passage to the door. Hearing the words from the office, Ryuji Hamamoto couldn''t help being taken aback, what''s going on? The script is not like this! After a while, he said: "You **** of the loser group, I didn''t expect you to have lurked by Mr. President''s side one step ahead of time. You ruined His Majesty Tianhuang''s plan. I must personally tear you to pieces. " Now it''s the translator''s turn to be confused, what the **** is this all about? Vagas saw the translator in a daze, and quickly said: "Why are you in a daze at this time! What did these **** say?" The translator didn''t care about anything, and translated the words outside. Now Vargas was also confused. These people outside are not all crazy, are they? The First Division of the Army, which attacked from the outside to the inside, was a European army after all, and its combat effectiveness was indeed much stronger than that of the local Brazilian army. The battle took place for half an hour, and the gate of the presidential palace had already been broken into. Under the powerful machine gun fire, the Japanese mob couldn''t lift their heads at all. Most of the mob had been killed by the first division and fled in all directions. After all, these people were ordinary people who had not been trained and could not fight the regular army at all. There are less than a thousand Japanese mobs blocked in the presidential palace. At this time, two middle-aged Japanese men ran to Ryuji Hamamoto''s side and said: "Hamaben-kun, our large army has been broken up, and now they have attacked the gate of the presidential palace, think of a way!" "Baga, how can these damned rebels attack the presidential palace. We must swear to defend Mr. President, and we must not let the military''s conspiracy succeed. You come with me, we will make a desperate charge to drive out all the rebels who come in. " The first division attacked the presidential palace and cut off the presidential palace''s connection with the outside world as soon as it attacked, causing Vargas to have no idea what was happening outside. The orders received by the cronies of the Presidential Palace were to suppress the Japanese mobs who stormed the Presidential Palace. Under such information asymmetry, General Dutra''s troops easily controlled the situation in Rio de Janeiro, the capital of Brazil. In the process of capturing the presidential palace, the former police chief of Rio de Janeiro, Mr. Lechner, was directly shot dead by Colonel Teach on charges of poor defense. When the first ray of sunlight on October 30 penetrated into the windows of the Presidential Palace filled with gunpowder smoke, all the Japanese mobs occupying the Presidential Palace were finally completely wiped out. Just when President Vargas thought he was finally safe, he pushed open the door of his office and planned to continue exercising presidential power. But I was told that Brazil has entered a state of military control, and the president cannot leave the office for the time being. Until this moment, President Vargas suddenly realized that the news that the army wanted a coup was real. With a face of decadence, he sat back on the throne that symbolizes the highest power in Brazil, looking out the window at the smashed presidential palace and the messy corpses. Vagas finally realized that these Japanese might really be here to protect him. Unfortunately, they are all poor worms who have been tricked by the enemy. (end of this chapter) Chapter 128: meritorious deeds Chapter 128 On rewards for meritorious deeds Rio de Janeiro Radio Station, General Dutra''s confidants sent Fang Lang a recording of General Dutra''s speech. After listening to it, Fang Lang smiled with satisfaction. Immediately after, the Voice of Rio radio station began to broadcast to all the Brazilian people the vicious incident that took place in the presidential palace last night, and repeated the recording of General Dutra''s speech. In his speech, General Dutra announced to all the people that the bad behavior of the Japanese mob that captured the presidential palace last night will be severely held accountable. Ask the Brazilian state governments to arrest Japanese mobs on a large scale and impose capital punishment. At the same time, because the Japanese mobs occupied the presidential palace and the Congress, they caused a large number of casualties of government officials and congressmen. Mr. President was injured and needed to rest. Brazil will temporarily enter a state of military control, and the presidential election will restart in December, and the state of military control will be revoked after the new president is sworn in. Once this news was announced, various newspapers and radio stations began to reprint it one after another, and public opinion was in an uproar. For a while, everyone of Japanese origin in Brazil shouted and beat, and the Japanese communities in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo were violently beaten by Brazilian people. Japanese people from other states were expelled by all Brazilians. Of course, during the process of deportation, Brazilians with a low level of education often did things like looting Japanese property. Brazilian police are dispatched more frequently, arresting and interrogating all Japanese people they see, even if the caller received is of Japanese descent, they will be arrested first and interrogated together. The Japanese people living in Brazil became useless overnight, and the factories run by Japanese people were also smashed, smashed, looted and burned by the Brazilian people. All of a sudden, social security became chaotic. Fortunately, under the state of military control, the army went to patrol the streets in time to suppress this trend. Unfortunately, the Japanese businessmen who suffered losses and the members of the loser team of the Chendo League were also implicated, and life in Brazil began to become difficult. Although the government has not declared Japanese descent as an unpopular group, the Brazilian people in the entire Brazilian society have included Japanese descent as an unpopular group. The Chinese in Sao Paulo were almost affected. Fortunately, Mr. Hodges, the police chief of Sao Paulo, dispatched police force to protect the Chinese village in time, and explained the difference between Chinese and Japanese to the public. The instigator of all this is at the director''s office of the Voice of Rio, drinking coffee, singing songs, and smoking a cigar to cook hot pot. Sitting opposite Fang Lang, Redondo, manager of the Brazilian branch of Global Trade, was giving Fang Lang a thumbs up at this time. He never thought that the inexplicable news that Fang Lang asked him to spread would have such a wonderful effect. "Mr. Fang, you are really amazing!" "Okay, don''t let anyone know about this, understand?" "Understood, I promise to rot in my stomach." "Come on, eat vegetables, I am very satisfied with your performance! This time I will give you another task." "Please order!" "Did you see the TV on the side? I want to build a TV factory and radio station in Brazil. You can find the most advanced related technologies and equipment in Europe and the United States through global trade channels and ship them back." "Mr. Fang, please rest assured! I will arrange it right away." "From now on, my focus will be on Brazil, so your work will start to get busy. If the number of people is insufficient, you can entrust Global Trading''s branches in Europe and America to recruit some outstanding talents. The next five years will be the time for the group to rise rapidly in Brazil, and we must seize the opportunity to grow rapidly. " After finishing talking with Redondo, Fang Lang received a call from General Dutra asking him to go to the Brazilian Ministry of Defense to attend a meeting. The content of the meeting was mainly to arrange the first heads of various military administrations. Fang Lang was directly appointed as the head of the interim military administration of the North Riognade State Government. Riognand Norte is the state where the First Fleet is located in Natal, and Natal is the capital of Riognand Norte. Fang Lang obviously didn''t expect that as a naval colonel, he would become the head of a state''s interim military government. Fang Lang didn''t know much about the situation in Rio Grande do Norte, but of course Fang Lang would not refuse the opportunity to become the head of a state government. After the meeting, Fang Lang was left to have dinner with General Dutra. "Fang, thank you for your kindness to come over thousands of miles to support. I don''t know if you have any idea to serve in the Navy Department after the establishment of the new government!" Fang Lang didn''t understand what General Dutra said when he heard what General Dutra said. This was telling Fang Lang whether you would like to be promoted when rewarding meritorious deeds. Entering the Ministry of the Navy as a civilian executive is obviously not Fang Lang''s goal. Fang Lang is very aware of the situation in Brazil in the next few years, and people without military power will not be able to sit still. "Your Excellency, General, I actually prefer to continue to hold the current position, but after this incident, I also discovered the shortcomings of my First Fleet." "Oh! Tell me about it!" "My biggest feeling on the Pacific battlefield this time is that the air force is the future. The navy without an aircraft carrier is a target, and it can only be passively beaten! And this action to support Your Excellency made me experience again the role of the Air Force in troop projection. Therefore, I made up my mind to build an aircraft carrier fleet that belongs to us in Brazil. Now there is no aircraft carrier, I also want to focus on building our naval aviation. " Fang Lang''s words made General Dutra fall into deep thought. After all, General Dutra was born in the army and is not familiar with the navy and air force. However, General Dutra, who participated in the European War as a Brazilian expeditionary force, is very aware of the shock brought to him by the overshadowing aircraft bombing on the European battlefield. There are also those paratrooper tactics that can appear anywhere anytime, anytime, which also shocked General Dutra. "What you said is very reasonable. I have also seen the power of the American naval aviation, but aviation alone is not enough. Your marines are too small. How about this! After returning to Natal, first expand your Marine Corps to a regiment. After the new government is formed, I will discuss how to deal with it at the Ministry of National Defense meeting. Strive for our Brazilian Navy to have its own powerful naval aviation. " General Dutra''s statement was tailor-made for Fang Lang, so why not be dissatisfied! quickly stated: "Please rest assured, Your Excellency, the First Fleet will be the sharpest knife in your hands." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, General Dutra smiled very satisfied, and everyone got what they needed. "By the way, I heard that you flew directly from Natal this time, using our own transport plane, but in my impression, we don''t seem to have a transport plane! What''s the situation?" Fang Lang, who didn''t know how to reimburse the purchase cost of the machine, was overjoyed when he heard the news. Wasn''t this someone giving a pillow just as he was about to fall asleep? "In fact, I bought this urgently from an American arms dealer. It cost me 300,000 dollars! They are all C46 transport aircraft currently in service in the US military." "Oh! Do you still have such an arms procurement channel? The price of ten C46s for $300,000 is very favorable!" "Hi! What''s the discount? They''re all second-hand." "Can I buy other equipment besides airplanes?" "As long as you have money, you can probably buy it except for big killers like Fat Boy!" "are you serious?" "Can you use your channel to purchase some equipment for the military in the future?" Fang Lang, who originally wanted to reimburse the cost of buying the plane, did not expect to have the opportunity to be a middleman to make the difference. "Of course it''s no problem, but I think it''s best for us to have our own military industry, otherwise we won''t be able to buy power just by buying." "What you said is very reasonable, but unfortunately our country has always been poor, and it is difficult to develop rapidly by relying on agriculture. Industrialization is the future of a country!" "Yes, Your Excellency General, your wise vision will definitely lead us to Brazil. Speaking of the military industry, I think of one thing and need to report it to you." "Oh! Say it!" During my garrison in Japan this time, a friend of mine in the US Army revealed to me that there is a complete artillery production line. Ask me if I have any intention to buy. At that time, I was overwhelmed and directly purchased this production line through Fangyuan Group. However, I''m not sure if the government will be willing to take over. If not, we can only sell the equipment separately. " Fang Lang''s news directly blasted General Dutra from his seat. "You''re telling the truth? Where is the device now?" "According to the itinerary, it should be shipped to Sao Paulo in a week." General Dutra was obviously very concerned about being able to independently produce artillery. After pacing back and forth twice in the room, he sat opposite Fang Lang again. "Fang, you really gave me a big surprise. As far as I know, Fangyuan Group is your family business, right?" "Yes, Your Excellency the General." "If the government is unable to purchase this production line, would your group be willing to set up an artillery factory?" Fang Lang didn''t expect that General Dutra wanted to hand over to private companies to manufacture arms. Fang Lang actually thought about setting up an artillery factory, otherwise he would not have taken over the production line in the first place. But considering that if an artillery factory is directly established, the scale of the Brazilian Army is simply not enough for the factory to survive. This made Fang Lang very entangled. If artillery is exported, Fang Lang is worried that with the technology of Japanese artillery, he may not be able to obtain orders in front of the superior equipment of European and American powers. "Your Excellency, the group actually has no plans to enter the military industry. It is difficult to support a large-scale military enterprise with the size of the Brazilian army. The reason why Fangyuan Group purchased this production line is actually because there are many advanced industrial machine tools in it. " "Fang, you just said yourself that we want to have our own military manufacturing capabilities in Brazil. Now that we have ready-made equipment, why don''t you try to persuade the family? Don''t worry, as long as this factory can be built, I will fully support your family''s business. If the artillery factory is not profitable, we can guarantee it through tax relief for the Yuan Group. I believe that this proposal will definitely get the full support of the military.

Thank you everyone. (end of this chapter) Chapter 129: Brazilian Development Bank Chapter 129 Brazilian Development Bank Fang Lang looked at the eager General Dutra in front of him, and it must be a lie if he said he was not moved. He is very clear that General Dutra''s ruling philosophy is liberal and democratic. However, nationalism accounts for a very large proportion of Brazil''s domestic political forces. Otherwise, the policy of nationalizing all natural resources will not appear later. Mining giants like Petrobras and Vale were once state-owned enterprises in Brazil. Embraer, which is very famous in later generations, is also a Brazilian state-owned enterprise. But if he really owns a military industrial group in his hands, then his influence on the army will definitely expand further. Besides, as a time-traveling person, if you do everything timidly, you must act within the framework of history, so what''s the point? With the vision of future people, can''t you guide military enterprises to be at the forefront of the world? "Your Excellency, I will convey your opinion to my father and let them consider it seriously!" General Dutra is very clear that such a big matter cannot be decided in a few words, and it must go through repeated consultations. So, instead of continuing to entangle, I went back to the topic and said: Now we dont have our own military enterprises, so the channels for purchasing arms are very important. Your arms channel must be well maintained! I''ll have the head of the General Logistics Department go straight to you. The general logistics department will also be responsible for the cost of purchasing the aircraft yourself, so the aircraft will continue to be handed over to your First Fleet for use! " "Thank you General for your generosity!" Fang Lang was very satisfied with this dinner. After all, the general in front of him will be the President of the Federative Republic of Brazil in December. Obtaining his friendship will give Fang Lang a huge boost in his domestic business plans. In the early morning of the next day, Fang Lang led five hundred marines under his command to withdraw from Rio de Janeiro by plane and return to Natal. However, the identity of Fang Lang, who returned to Natal at this time, is quite different from the original one, because at this moment he is also the consul of Brazil''s interim military government. Unlike the Air Force pilots who received him when he returned to Natal last time, this time when Fang Lang stepped off the plane, officials from the Rio Grande do Norte state government picked him up on the runway outside. Fang Lang is not interested in taking charge of the government affairs of this continent, because he knows that the power of government affairs will be handed over to the local elected government within two months at most. Fang Lang''s goal is to place his own people in various positions in the state within these two months. So he had a meeting with all the state government officials, and after everyone got to know each other, only the chief of police remained. The police chief of Riogna Norte is a Portuguese-born white man with a short stature and wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses. He looks more like a teacher than a police chief. "Director Samir Angell, have you counted how many Japanese descendants we have in Rio Grande do Norte?" "Mr. Colonel, according to the data I saw yesterday, there are only about 2,000 people." "Then your first task is to deport all these people!" "Ah! Is this not so good, some of them did not participate in the riots." Hearing Director Angel''s answer, Fang Lang was very dissatisfied. The first order I took as a new official, you just bargained. This is disrespectful to Lao Tzu! His eyes turned cold, he stared fiercely at Director Angel and said: "Mr. Director, I hope you understand that I am not discussing with you. If you can''t do it, then I will arrange for someone who can!" After speaking, without waiting for the police chief to respond, he said directly: "Qi Qingshan, come in!" The adjutant Qi Qingshan outside the door directly pushed the door and walked in. He stood in front of Fang Lang and saluted: "Sir, Qi Qingshan is reporting to you!" "Now I appoint you as the chief of the Rio Grande Norte State Police. Lead the guard platoon to take over the police headquarters. The first task is to deport all Japanese in Rio Grande Norte. Understand?" "Yes, sir!" "Take this former Mr. Director out casually." Soldiers do things in such a straightforward way, there is no room for negotiation after an order. Director Angor obviously hasn''t changed from his original work style, so it''s just right to let Fang Lang replace him with his own. In the following time, Fang Lang began to learn about this Rio Grande do Norte from the information obtained by government officials, and what is suitable for him to attack. After careful research, Fang Lang discovered that this state, which is located in the northeast corner of Brazil and inserted into the Atlantic Ocean, is the state closest to Africa and Europe. The transportation location is very superior. No wonder the Americans want to set up the naval base here. Unfortunately, natural resources are not particularly rich. The main economy here still comes from agriculture, and long-staple cotton is the largest agricultural product in this state. Other agricultural products include sugar cane, corn, rice, etc. However, because it is close to the equator, the light here is very sufficient, and there are many salt fields along the coast, but unfortunately the scale is not particularly large. After studying for a whole day, Fang Lang directly contacted his father, Fang Xinshan, and confirmed that the location of the fleet had just arrived in the waters of French Guiana, which was only one day''s voyage from Fang Lang Natal. Fang Lang directly asked the fleet to dock in Natal. Since this is his military base, he must put some of his industries here. Because this is his own territory and convenient for his own protection, no matter how the political situation changes, I believe no one will dare to come to his base camp to find work. At the same time, they also contacted Wan Chongxin in the United States to recruit some bank practitioners and purchase textile and mechanized salt-making equipment. Finally finished the work at hand, ready to go back to rest. Qi Qingshan came back head-on in a busy manner, and when he saw Fang Lang, he stood at attention and saluted. "Boss, when we carried out the task of deporting Japanese descendants, we found more than 800 laborers who were captured by the Japanese from their hometown in the Northeast in a Japanese-funded salt field far away from the urban area." "What the hell? Chinese laborers? In Natal?" "Yes, boss! Among them are more than 500 men and more than 300 women. According to the workers, they have been here for almost six years, and there is another group of people who came with them on the same boat, but they were killed by the Japanese. Brought inland." "Little Japan, why did it cost so much to transport laborers here? Are you sure it''s just a salt field?" "Yes, boss, it is indeed a salt farm, and the scale is very large." This situation is really beyond Fang Lang''s expectation, it doesn''t make sense! Why does Little Japan have to transport labor from such a long distance? Not to find locals, it must be for the sake of secrecy, but what is there in Brazil that is worthy of such secrecy? Could it be that the government officials in North Rio Grande are all blind, it''s impossible! It seems that the water here is very deep! "Does the local police know about this?" "I feel like I should know." "There is a problem here. You can interrogate these Japanese people overnight to see if you can figure out where the other group of people the laborers said went. After you figure out the situation, bring a company to dig it out for me. Think again. I report." "Yes, boss." After Qi Qingshan left, Fang Lang couldn''t help but fell into deep thought. He wasn''t thinking about what the Japanese were doing. Now that he was in power, no matter what the Japanese were doing, they would stop. The key is whether the Rio Grande do Norte government knows about this matter, and if it knows, is it simply collecting money to do things, or is there other circumstances. It seems that it is very dangerous for me to know nothing about the government situation! It would be embarrassing to count the money for others after being sold. Thinking of this, he directly picked up the office phone. "Duarte, do we Marines have Rio Grande do Norte?" "Oh! How many?" "Five? You bring them to my office now." Soon Fang Lang''s office door was knocked, and Duarte came in with five soldiers. "Boss, here we come!" Fang Lang glanced at the five soldiers standing in a standard military posture in front of him. "Are you all from Rio Grande do Norte?" "Yes, sir." "I''ve given you a task. I will give you a holiday tonight. You will wear plain clothes and go to downtown Natal to help me investigate a few things." "Please command, sir!" Then Fang Lang explained to several people. The reason why the locals of Rio Grande do Norte were asked to investigate was to prevent the attention of local officials. In fact, the object of investigation is also very simple. No matter which country it is, the powerful department is the military police constitution. As long as these powerful departments are controlled, other people will not be able to make waves. The next day, Fang Xinshan, who sailed across the sea from Japan, finally entered the port of Natal. Except for the artillery production line being transported back to Sao Paulo, all the goods on the ship were unloaded into the warehouse in the naval base. "Father, I may need to work harder on you recently to find a suitable place to build our own bank in Natal City." "Is it here? This is a remote place, how to set up banking business here?" The reason for opening the head office here is that the gold shipped back from Japan this time needs to be stored here. The bank will be under my protection at all times, and there is no need to worry that someone will dare to take his idea. As for business, we can build branches in Rio, Sao Paulo, and Alegre at the same time! " "Okay! Who do you want to hand over the bank to?" "I want you to take charge yourself, I don''t know if you want to." "I''m a farmer, I can''t do this, no, no." I have already had people recruit professional banking talents from the United States. If you dont understand, its okay to learn from them. We will not participate too much in the business of this bank in the early stage. I mainly want him to be responsible for the capital flow within our group. The payment of employees'' wages and the payment of allowances for soldiers in our army. In the later stage, it may be necessary to carry out some small loan business to support Chinese entrepreneurs. I have already thought of the name, and it is called the Brazilian Development Bank. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 130: labor Chapter 130 Labor Fang Xinshan is of course very happy that his son handed over such an important property to him, but at the same time he is a little worried that he will not do well. Forget the people around me, it seems that there is no one else to entrust, so I can only bite the bullet and accept it. "Okay then! I''ll take care of it for you first, and if you have any questions, you can take over at any time!" Hearing that his father was willing to take over, Fang Lang also breathed a sigh of relief. Now his business is going from place to place, and its time to sort it out, otherwise it will be a mess, and he wont know when it will go bankrupt. "Let''s do this! Dad, take some time recently to sort out our industries in Brazil and integrate all industries that can be placed under the Fangyuan Group. Those that cannot be put in, see if they can be taken out and set up as a separate group company for management. Otherwise, the current situation is really too messy, and we will not know that branch company will be swallowed up by someone. I dont have to fight everywhere now, but its also inconvenient to check the situation of the factory every day. Therefore, I must have my own assistant team by my side to classify and manage all my industries. I only need to listen to the assistant''s report every day to learn about the latest situation of each company. And use the assistant to remotely command the operation direction of each branch. Only in this way can effective management be achieved without chaos. " "You should have done this a long time ago, you don''t know, after you asked me to set up this Fangyuan Group, I saw that so many industries are the first and the second big. I also plan to have a good talk with you when you return to Sao Paulo! " "No way, it was really inconvenient to deal with these things a while ago, don''t worry, I will handle them personally after the establishment of this assistant team." While Fang Lang was discussing the future plans of the family business with his father in his office, Qi Qingshan had already led a company of soldiers to a remote village far away from Natal after a morning of trekking. Because of Brazil''s terrain, only the coastal areas have some low-altitude plains, and less than 100 kilometers inland will become high-altitude Brazilian plateaus, except of course the Amazon jungle area. The village where Qi Qingshan and others are now is located in a small canyon between two peaks on the Brazilian plateau. "Sir, the address you mentioned is here." A local policeman was looking at Qi Qingshan nervously at this moment. He didn''t understand why the army suddenly asked him to lead the way to this small mountain village with few people. "Do you have police who come here often?" Qi Qingshan stared at the middle-aged Indian policeman, as if telling him that if you lie, you will die. "This place is too remote, and we will never go to this ghost place if no one reports the crime. In my impression, it seems that in the last seven or eight years, I have never received a report from anyone here! " "Are you sure, who are the people living here, do you know?" "We have this in our household registration information. The people living here are all local farmers. There are only 20 families in total. They mainly rely on growing corn and sugar cane as their source of income." "Are there any Japanese residents in this place?" "Japanese? I''ve never heard of any Japanese here!" "Okay, you go down!" Qi Qingshan looked at the quiet small village in front of him and became suspicious. If the policeman hadn''t lied, why did the Japanese confess that they had transported the laborers here! It is hard to say that there was no report record in 1978 or 2008. After all, in some places, as long as it is not a criminal case, most of them are solved by the village itself. "Scouts, come and investigate for me, don''t be discovered by the locals, and see what''s going on in this village." "Yes!" More than a dozen soldiers walked out of the queue, trotted all the way into the small woods on both sides, and quickly disappeared from everyone''s sight. Qi Qingshan found a commanding height and looked in the direction of the village with a telescope. Not even one of the villagers working in the fields was found, which made Qi Qingshan feel very strange. About an hour later, the scouts finally brought back the information. There is no one in the village in front of it at all, and all the people are concentrated in a mine behind the village. It seems that they are mining, and there are armed guards with guns beside the mine. Qi Qingshan looked at the middle-aged policeman with a fierce look in his eyes: "You **** dare to lie to me. This is the peasant village of twenty households you mentioned. What kind of mine is being opened here?" The middle-aged Indian policeman was obviously confused at this time, and quickly waved his hands and said: "I have never heard of this! In my impression, this is really a small village with a few farmers!" Qi Qingshan opened his eyes wide and ordered: "Get him arrested by Lao Tzu first, and we will talk about it after we resolve the situation in the village." Next, Qi Qingshan and the company platoon leader and others gathered together to formulate a battle plan based on the information sent back by the scouts. Half an hour later, the raid on the village was launched. The operation went very smoothly, although the personnel guarding the mine started to resist. However, all the guards have already been detected clearly. Therefore, they were the first to be dealt with. With a burst of intense gunfire, the battle ended in less than ten minutes. When Qi Qingshan walked into the mine, he saw a large group squatting on the ground with his hands on his head. There were more than 2,000 people, many of whom had obvious Asian faces, and some were Indians. The clothes of these people are ragged and they look malnourished. Obviously, it was forced labor. In front of a row of wooden houses outside the mine, there were nearly a hundred people kneeling. Judging by their clothes and expressions, they were obviously either supervisors or mine owners. At this moment, they are being surrounded by soldiers with guns. "Who is the talker here! Come out and talk to me." No one responded for a long time. Qi Qingshan spoke again: "If no one comes out, kill them all." I dont know if no one understands Portuguese or what, but everyone looked at Qi Qingshan nervously. There was no way Qi Qingshan repeated it in English, but there was still no movement. Qi Qingshan was so angry that he directly picked up the Thomson submachine gun in his hand, pulled the bolt, and was about to give the crowd a shot. A chunky man in his forties raised his hand. Two soldiers rushed over and dragged him out. Qi Qingshan hit him in the face with two gun butts without saying a word, and several front teeth fell out on the spot. The short and fat man was directly smashed to the ground, covered his head with both hands, and hurriedly begged for mercy in Portuguese: "Please stop fighting, I surrender, I surrender." Hearing that he could speak Portuguese, Qi Qingshan went up and kicked him in the stomach again, making him hunched up and retched, with tears streaming down his face. "You **** understand what I''m saying, if you don''t answer, you''re looking for death!" "Sir, have mercy! I won''t dare again!" The man said intermittently. "Tell me! What kind of mine are you little Japanese mining here!" "Sir, we are in the tantalum mine." "What the hell? What is a tantalum thing." "How to say this! I can''t explain it for a while. I can take you to see it." "You are the person in charge of this mine, right?" "Sir, yes, I also discovered this mine." "Then what are the other people doing here!" "There are engineers, mine guards, and smelting technicians." "Oh! Then I see!" Qi Qingshan turned his head and said to Yilianchang: "Tie up everyone here and lock them up." Soon the chunky Japanese brought Qi Qingshan to a large wooden warehouse. Two soldiers stepped forward, smashed the lock on the door with a gun butt, squeezed in, came out quickly, and nodded to Qi Qingshan. Taking a look inside, they were all steel-gray metal blocks. Just glanced at it, and Qi Qingshan lost interest. Directly facing the Japanese: "Do you have a mining permit?" "This" "Is there no? Take it away!" When Qi Qingshan returned to the base, it was already past eleven o''clock in the middle of the night, so he didn''t bother Fang Lang. The next morning, after work, he rang Fang Lang''s office. "How was yesterday''s harvest?" "Sir, after the overnight interrogation last night, I have figured it out. It was a Japanese named tantalum mine who discovered tantalum mines in a mountain village, so he notified the Japanese consulate. Later, the Japanese took control of the people in that village and began secretly mining and transporting them back to Japan. Unfortunately, the output was too low. In order to expand production, Japan mobilized 2,000 workers from their hometown to mine. Because Mizuno Shinyins elder brother was short of people in the saltworks here, he withdrew a group of workers from this group. It was originally planned that the mine would be further expanded, and then the manpower would be transferred there. After the war between Japan and the United States, the communication between Brazil and Japan was cut off, and they had no way to transport the extracted tantalum ore back to Japan, so they could only wait patiently while continuing to organize mining. They didn''t know that Japan had surrendered until we occupied the mining area. " "Did they say what tantalum mines are for?" "Nobuyoshi Mizuno said it was used to make capacitors, but I don''t know what it is." "Are you sure neither the Natal government nor the police know about this matter?" "Judging from the current situation, the possibility of not knowing about this mine is relatively high. If these officials know about it, they will get a share of it no matter what. As for the police, I have also interrogated them. They have not been to that remote mountain village for seven or eight years. However, some people know that there are illegal workers in the salt field. " "Then first transport that tantalum mine back to the warehouse and seal it up, and send these people who illegally exploit the country''s mineral resources directly to court, and follow the normal procedure for trial. Remember to notify the reporter to follow up and interview. As for small characters like the mine guard team, let them dig a hole by themselves and bury it! " "Yes, boss!" Fang Lang doesn''t care about the value of tantalum ore now. Because even if this tantalum mine is very valuable, Brazil does not allow private mining. He can swallow a batch from the smelted materials at most. In Fang Lang''s mind, it is more important to further stigmatize the reputation of the Japanese among the Brazilian people. And this group of workers from their hometown was also a surprise for Fang Lang. (end of this chapter) Chapter 131: Invest in Natal Chapter 131 Investing in Natal "Have all the laborers from their hometown been rescued?" "Yes, but most of these people''s physical conditions are very bad, and they wanted to be sent to the hospital in Natal for examination and treatment, but the hospital in Natal is too small, and the doctors'' medical skills are obviously not reliable! So last night I temporarily housed them in our spare barracks. " "Is the situation in Natal so bad? It seems that it is necessary for us to check the situation! Please help me to inform the mayor of Natal and the main officials to take me to check the situation in Natal this afternoon. . In addition, I will give you the contact information of the chief of police in Sao Paulo. You can see if you can find him to support a group of doctors from Sao Paulo. We will directly arrange a special plane to pick you up. " "Okay, boss! I''ll do it now." Looking at the back of Qi Qingshan leaving, Fang Lang''s feeling of his shortage of manpower became more and more obvious. It''s not that there are no people under him, but that there is a lack of talents who can stand alone. Not long after Qi Qingshan left, Fang Xinshan pushed away Fang Lang''s office with a look of frustration. Looking at his father''s frustrated expression, Fang Lang asked suspiciously: "Father, didn''t you ask you to find a suitable place to build a bank first? Why haven''t you gone at this time, do you need me to arrange a vehicle?" "Ah! Don''t mention it, I went out. The soldiers under your command were afraid that it would be unsafe for me to go out alone, so they sent two soldiers to go out with me. However, after looking at the environment in Natal, the vicinity of the military base is okay, but a little farther away, it becomes very messy. The roads are muddy and the streets are full of animal and human excrement. Are you sure you want to build a bank here? " Now it''s Fang Lang''s turn to be embarrassed. He really hasn''t checked the streets of Natal until now, but has been staying at this naval base. "Isn''t there even an easier road?" "It can''t be said that there is no one at all! The so-called city center still has two main roads with two horizontal lines and two vertical lines, which are paved with stones, but the width of the roads is not very enough, so two trucks can only be staggered." "I see, you go back and have a rest first, I''ll go out and see for myself later." Hearing his father''s description, Fang Lang already had a certain understanding of the situation in downtown Natal. His father had been staying in Sao Paulo, the second largest city after the capital Rio de Janeiro. So I was very disappointed when I saw such a remote city for the first time, and Fang Lang could understand it. But for Fang Lang, backwardness is not terrible. As long as he has money and time, no matter how poor the place is, it can be built into a paradise on earth. After lunch that day, under the protection of his own guard platoon, Fang Lang drove all the way to the office building of the Natal City Government. The original mayor had already been waiting at the door for a long time. The mayor of Natal is a white man in his fifties who walks like a penguin and has two very neatly trimmed beards. "Mr. Colonel, welcome to Natal Town Hall, inside please!" "Mr. Mayor Dursley, you don''t need to go into the city hall. Today I want to find a guide to take me around the city of Natal to get acquainted with the situation in Natal. I don''t know if it is convenient." "Of course, Mr. Colonel, it is my pleasure." Next, Fang Lang, accompanied by the mayor of Natal, Ewald Dursley, went around the entire city of Natal. This circle also gave Fang Lang a general understanding of this so-called provincial capital city. In fact, the current Natalgen cannot be called a city. The streets are completely unplanned and the environment is dirty. After walking out of the main city, there are no decent buildings at all, and most of them are shacks built by some people privately. There are several huge warehouses in the city center. According to Mayor Dursley, these are the trading markets for cotton, sea salt, sugar cane, and rubber, and they are also the main source of tax revenue for Natal. Backing to the mayor''s office in the city hall, Fang Lang asked suspiciously: "Mr. Mayor, why are all our products primary agricultural products? Can''t even sugarcane be processed into sucrose for sale?" "Mr. Colonel, we actually have some sugarcane rough processing factories in Natal, but they are all small family workshops, the output is not high, and the quality of the products is not very good." "Then have you considered introducing some large-scale deep-processing factories? As far as I know, we also have some such deep-processing factories in Brazil!" Fang Lang looked at Mayor Dursley with an embarrassed expression on his face, and he knew he had asked an unnecessary question. "I don''t know what industry the mayor''s family is engaged in?" Politicians who can run for mayor in Brazil usually have a certain financial resources and family background. Otherwise, you cant afford to do publicity or even buy votes. How can you become mayor? Of course, most of the Brazilian government officials are corrupt, and they became mayors in order to make more money. As for the lives of ordinary people, it obviously has nothing to do with them. Hearing Fang Lang''s question, Mayor Dursley didn''t hide anything, and said directly and frankly: My family has always been engaged in trading business in Natal, but after I became mayor, the family business has been handed over to my son. "I don''t know if Mr. Mayor has thought about entering industrial development?" If Fang Lang wants to expand his influence in Natal, he must cooperate with the local local snakes. As the mayor of Natal, no matter how powerful he is, he is definitely one of the local snakes. "I don''t know which aspect Mr. Colonel is referring to?" "Mr. Mayor''s family is engaged in trading business, so what do you think is the easiest product to see results if we want to do deep processing of agricultural products?" "If it''s my personal opinion, it must be sugar. Before I ran for mayor, I thought about opening a sugar factory, but we don''t have the technology, and the products we make can''t compete with products from European and American countries. We dont have the money to buy the large-scale industrialized equipment they use, so. Unexpectedly, Mayor Dursley had thought about this a long time ago, but it''s normal to think about it. After all, everyone knows that opening a factory can make money! "Haha. It turns out that Mr. Mayor has already thought about this. Since you think you don''t have enough money alone, how about we cooperate?" Dursley obviously didn''t expect that Fang Lang would directly initiate a cooperation invitation like himself. It''s not to cheat my family property! Can''t help but become vigilant. Seeing Dursley''s expression, Fang Lang smiled and said: My family has two sugar factories in S?o Paulo. If Mr. Mayor really has an idea, we can cooperate to build a brand new sugar processing factory in Natal. Equipment I have channels to buy the latest and manufactured products directly from the United States, and I also have channels to sell all of them to European and American markets. How about it? " "Is Mr. Colonel serious?" "Of course, I am very serious. I not only want to build a sugar factory, but I also want to open a bank, a textile factory, a salt factory, a rubber processing factory, etc." Fang Lang''s words made Dursley''s jaw almost drop to the ground. He never thought that the young colonel in front of him would dare to say such bold words. As the mayor of Natal, he certainly hopes that what Fang Lang said can be realized. After all, this is a real achievement! However, this is not something that can be said casually. Everything else is easy to talk about. It is impossible to open a bank just by itself. Seeing Dursley''s expression of disbelief, Fang Lang smiled and said: "I don''t know Fangyuan Group, have you heard of it?" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Dursley took out a pack of cigarettes from his pocket and said: "Is it the Fangyuan Group that produces this lucky cigarette? I heard that they have also built a joint venture with the Americans to build a shipyard in Sao Paulo." Fang Lang didn''t expect that this Dursley was still a user of Lucky Cigarettes. But Fang Lang can''t be blamed for this. After all, he has not been in Brazil most of the time, and he doesn''t know how popular good luck cigarettes are now. Brand-new taste and brand-new packaging have allowed Good Luck Cigarettes to occupy 60% of the market share in Brazil, and all cigarette brands have been beaten to pieces by him. This is also because he has exported a large part of his production. The current Lucky Cigarettes is developing filters according to Fang Lang''s guidelines. For this reason, it has also established its own laboratory to study and make new flavors and new technologies. "Yes, it is the Fangyuan Group." Receiving Fang Lang''s affirmative answer, Dursley said with an unbelievable expression on his face: "The family business you are talking about is Fangyuan Group!" I didnt expect Fangyuan Group to have such a big influence after it was established not long ago. It seems that I havent paid attention to my industrial development in Brazil for too long. Looking at Mr. Mayor''s expression, Fang Lang could only nodded reservedly. Mayor Dursley saw Fang Lang nodding, and his eyes directly turned into dollar signs, obviously recognizing the strength of Fangyuan Group. "Mr. Colonel, I don''t know when our factory can start construction. I will immediately start allocating land to prepare for the construction of the factory." Now it''s Fang Lang''s turn to scratch his head, you guys changed your attitude really quickly! smiled and said: "If Mr. Mayor is willing, I will ask the company to arrange professional personnel to come and negotiate with you on the opening of the factory." "Okay, okay, don''t worry! I will start raising funds after I go back. It is my honor to cooperate with Fangyuan Group." Seeing that Mayor Dursley wanted to leave now and go home to prepare for the establishment of a joint venture factory. Fang Lang hurriedly stopped him and said: "Mr. Mayor, don''t leave in a hurry. I just said that the family will invest in a lot of projects in Natal this time. Now I have one thing to trouble Mr. Mayor." (end of this chapter) Chapter 132: remind Chapter 132 Reminder Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Mayor Dursley calmed down a little embarrassedly and said: "Excuse me, Mr. Colonel, I''m too excited. If you have anything to do, please just tell me, and I will do my best to help you." Regarding Mayor Dursley''s performance, Fang Lang smiled slightly and said: "As I said just now, the group plans to establish a bank in Natal. I need Mr. Mayor to allocate a piece of land in the city center for the construction of the bank building." After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Mayor Dursley stood up and walked to the window of the office, pointing his finger to a small two-story corridor opposite the municipal square: "Mr. Colonel, how about the location on the opposite side, just opposite the city hall and the parliament. The two-story building was originally a cotton trading center built during the Portuguese colonial period. There are two large warehouses at the back, which are absolutely no problem for building a bank. " Fang Lang also got up and walked to the window, looking at the two-story building opposite the square. Just on the side of the road, facing the city hall and the parliament, the location is absolutely nothing to say. "Then this trading center is no longer in use?" The trading center is made of brick and wood. It has been too long and too old. It is almost becoming a dilapidated building. Now everyone is no longer trading here. The city government wanted to push him to rebuild for a long time, but there was no suitable project, so it has been abandoned. It is really suitable for building a bank building. " "Well, tomorrow I will ask the person in charge of Fangyuan Group to come to the municipal government to discuss the land purchase in detail." Seeing that the matter of the bank land was basically settled, Fang Lang was about to get up and leave, but he saw that Mayor Dursley seemed a little entangled and hesitated to speak. Fang Lang smiled and said: "Mr. Mayor, is there anything else you want to say?" Dursley clenched his fist as if making up his mind and said: "Mr. Colonel, I heard you just said that you still want to open a saltworks?" Nodding with a smile, Fang Lang said strangely: "Yes! As far as I know, Natal''s sea salt seems to have always been a dominant industry! What''s wrong?" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Dursley took two steps in the room, then turned around and came to Fang Lang''s side and whispered: "If you want to open a salt farm, no problem, but, I want to remind you that the salt in Natal can only be sold through the Natal Salt Company." Fang Lang''s face changed immediately after these words, what do you mean? Buying and selling by force is still threatening Lao Tzu. Seeing Fang Lang''s face, Dursley was taken aback, and quickly whispered: "Mr. Colonel, please don''t be angry. Let me tell you this! Natal is a small place with a small population. There are some big families whose strengths are intertwined in Natal, which is very difficult to deal with!" Our Natal Salt Company is one of the powerful family industries. The salt company has been established for more than two hundred years, and the boss is a nobleman from the Portuguese period. They all have certain contacts in Congress, they are very low-key, and never participate in the election of mayor or speaker. However, no matter who the mayor or speaker is, they will be the deputy speaker, or deputy mayor. Most importantly, there are many of them in the police station. Some call them the underground mayors of Natal. " This news stunned Fang Lang for a moment. Unexpectedly, someone is already playing like this now. Isnt this the routine I prepared for myself? Someone actually started playing in front of him. Although he didn''t know whether what Dosley said was true or not, and what purpose he had, this routine made him very familiar! Fang Lang smiled playfully and said: "Oh! Mr. Mayor Dursley is afraid of them too?" These words made Dursley''s expression a little embarrassed, he smiled to cover up and said: "This... Our family has been in Natal for many years, so we have some friendship with this family." Fang Lang touched his nose, smiled and said: "Oh! Why did Mr. Dursley tell me this? Aren''t you afraid I''ll tell them?" Mayor Dursley did not feel embarrassed this time, but said sincerely: "Because I can feel that Mr. Colonel really wants to be good for Natal, and wants to change the status quo of Natal!" Looking at Mr. Mayor amusedly, Fang Lang got up, arranged his clothes and said: "Then I''ll go back first, and let the person in charge of Fangyuan Group come to visit Mr. Mayor tomorrow." After finishing speaking, he got up and walked towards the door. When he was about to open the office door, he turned around as if he suddenly remembered something: "It seems that Mr. Mayor hasn''t told me the name of this family yet!" Mayor Dursley said in a voice just enough for Fang Lang to hear: "The Yakub family, their patriarch is Theodor Yakub." Hearing the name, Fang Lang nodded, without speaking, he opened the office door and walked out. The guards standing outside the door, one on the left and one on the right, immediately followed. Sitting in the car going back, Fang Lang has been analyzing what Dursley said. In fact, there is no need to worry about whether it is true or false, because if it is false, it will not stand up to investigation at all. This family must be real and must have had a fairly strong influence in the Natal region. This kind of thing is inevitable. Under normal circumstances, Fang Lang actually wants to do business with such a family, because they are low-key and powerful. Do things with half the effort. It''s just that if one is bad, they may be swallowed by them without even bones left. But in Natal, Fang Lang doesn''t allow anyone stronger than himself. At this moment, Fang Lang suddenly wanted to have his own intelligence agency, at least he couldn''t let himself go to a place, and he couldn''t figure out the situation, so he was easy to be used by others and pay for it. Thinking of the intelligence agency, Fang Lang thought of his friend Major Blackwell in the intelligence agency. I dont know if they will have such domestic intelligence, but its useless to think about it. Just call and ask. Fang Lang, who returned to the office, directly called Major Blackwell. "Blackwell? I''m Fang Lang!" Hearing Fang Lang''s self-reporting, hearty laughter came from the opposite side. "Fang, I heard that you have made great achievements this time!" "How can I hide it from you! It seems that you are also on the side of General Dutra this time!" "Hey! We are not qualified to choose sides! This intelligence agency sounds prestigious, but after entering, I found out that it is not popular at all, and it is not as refreshing as it used to be in the army." "That''s not right! How can your intelligence agency be the largest intelligence agency in Brazil? How can you be unpopular? Doesn''t Mr. President need intelligence?" "Of course Mr. President needs information, but we will not give the information to the President!" This stunned Fang Lang for a moment, and there is an intelligence bureau that does not provide information to the president? "Isn''t the Brazilian intelligence agency responsible to the president?" "Of course not! Our Brazilian intelligence agency was established by the Ministry of Defense two years ago. The military intelligence agency will definitely not be responsible to the president! Hi! We are brothers, and you are also a senior officer in the army, so there are some things I will not hide from you. However, after I tell you some things, you must never say them out. " "If it will have a bad influence on you, don''t say it. I don''t want you to lose your job." "It''s definitely not, let me tell you this! Don''t listen to our department, it seems to be very powerful. In fact, we have only been established for a short time, and we haven''t even found a job direction yet. The entire Brazilian Intelligence Agency is just a regiment-level unit, the highest leader is our director, and the rank is lieutenant colonel. Before he became the director of intelligence, he was the intelligence staff officer of the Department of the Army. And the reason why I was promoted to major and joined the Intelligence Bureau was because I cracked the Japanese disk in Sao Paulo. Let the intelligence chief think that I have anti-espionage work experience, but our brothers are all clear about this matter, what do you think I have anti-espionage work experience. Brothers panicked after entering the Intelligence Bureau! It turned out to be okay, after I came in, I just sat in an office and read the briefings sent by various regions. However, after this Japanese mob incident! The director asked me to set up an anti-espionage department, but I couldn''t even push it away. If I insisted that I have experience, what can you say I can say! Brother, if you dont call me, Im going to find time to go to your place to avoid the limelight. Who would you say this is an anti-espionage? " Now it was Fang Lang''s turn to be dumbfounded. As a Chinese, he came from a country that already had intelligence agencies since Jinyiwei and Dongchang in the Ming Dynasty. It''s simply incomprehensible that a country''s intelligence service would be such a joke. Thinking about it, I couldn''t help but ask: "You mean our Brazilian intelligence agency, a military intelligence agency established after World War II, is not responsible to the president?" "Of course, although I don''t know what countries we want to collect military intelligence about, but we are responsible for military intelligence collection." At this time, Fang Lang finally remembered the news that later generations saw on the Internet, saying that Brazil''s intelligence agency monitored the president''s phone call. It turns out that Fang Lang still didn''t understand it, but now Fang Lang understands it. It turns out that the Brazilian Intelligence Agency has always served the military. No wonder the president didn''t even hear about such a big matter. Hearing Blackwell say that he didn''t even know that he was going to collect military intelligence from those countries, Fang Lang couldn''t help laughing. No wonder the Brazilian Intelligence Agency is not so famous in later generations, because it seems that he really has no enemies. The only competitor is Argentina in South America. The only war with Argentina in South America was a war that broke out in 1825 in order to compete with Argentina for Uruguay. Of course, Brazil lost this battle. But at that time, Brazil had just become independent from Portugal. It was not yet the United States, but an empire. The first emperor was the son of the Portuguese emperor. Perhaps, it was precisely because Brazil had no enemies in South America that the later Brazilian intelligence agency put its main strength on the collection of internal intelligence! No wonder the Brazilian military has always been in such an arrogant position in Brazil that it can launch a coup and overthrow the president at every turn. Think about the CIA of the Yankees, the FBI, there are a lot of bureaus in this bureau and that bureau, and it didn''t say that the bureau can directly ignore the president! (end of this chapter) Chapter 133: investigation Chapter 133 Investigation With Blackwell''s explanation, Fang Lang understood the situation of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency. If he followed the situation that Blackwell said, he might not be able to find out anything if he wanted to investigate Natal''s situation through him. up. couldn''t help sighing and said: "I wanted to ask you to help provide some information about Natal! I can''t even open my mouth after hearing what you said." "Oh! I''ll find out what information you want about Natal. We may not be able to find foreign information, but we still have some domestic information. Besides, you are a senior military officer, and it is my job to provide you with information. Tell me what information you want, and I will collect it for you. " Since Blackwell said that he could provide domestic intelligence, Fang Lang would certainly not be polite, and said directly: "That would be great. Now I am the chief of the military control committee in Rio Grande do Norte, but I am completely unfamiliar with this place. Please help me find out where you have information about this place. Can you give me all of it? one serving." Blackwell did not delay and said directly: "Small problem, I will send it to you personally tomorrow." "Aren''t you going to set up some counterintelligence department? Can you walk away?" . Hearing that there was no sound on the other side, Fang Lang knew what Blackwell meant, and laughed out loud! "I said Blackwell, if you want to visit me, of course I welcome it, but if you leave your job, I''m afraid your chief will trouble me!" "Fang, you are really boring. Next time I will go to find you! I will send someone to send the materials to you tomorrow." Then he hung up the phone directly. Listening to the busy tone coming from the microphone, Fang Lang shook his head and smiled. Picked up the cigar in the ashtray, took a puff, and continued to think about what Dursley said about the Jacob family. Maybe everyone heard how much money a family can earn by holding a salt company. However, the salt supply of this salt company accounts for more than 80% of the entire Brazilian market, so you can imagine how much profit this company can make. Just as Fang Lang was thinking about whether to come to chat with the Yakubu family first, Duarte knocked on the open office door with a few local soldiers. Fang Lang looked up, nodded and said directly without getting up: "Come in!" "Report to the boss, the things you asked them to check are a little bit clueless, I will bring them over and talk to you!" "Oh! Tell me about it." Duarte pointed to one of the five fighters, and the boy who was obviously Indian said: "Boss, this soldier is called Aegon Nightray, and he is a native of Natal." After the introduction, he said to the warrior: "Nate Ray, you will tell the officer what you just told me." The soldier was a little nervous, and he stood at attention and saluted, and said: "Sir, today I left the barracks and went home directly, and inquired with my family about the Natal police station. Most people are very disgusted with the Natal police. Because they belonged to the local Roy gang, and anyone who does business in the local area needs to pay protection fees to the Roy gang, otherwise, they would be beaten, smashed and robbed, and the police never cared. It turns out that there is another gang called the Mad Dog Gang, which often conflicts with the Roy Gang, so there are often armed fights, and death is a frequent occurrence. Generally, the gang will send someone to give money to the police who handle the case. The Mad Dog gang was still there before I joined the army, but this time, I heard from them that they have been wiped out by the Roy gang. " "Oh! Has this Roy gang existed for a long time?" "This gang has been around for as long as I can remember." Fang Lang nodded, looked at the soldier and said: "Anything else?" The soldier shook his head nervously and said: "I asked a lot of people, and most of them said that the police and the Roy gang are one group or something. There is no other special news." Obviously, this soldier only came into contact with ordinary people at the grassroots level, and the problems he saw were all on the bright side. However, these bright things can also reflect many problems. Fang Lang nodded, looked at the other soldiers and said: "Is there any other news? Let''s come one by one. I don''t need to repeat what I said before. Tell me." Fang Lang gestured to a white soldier standing next to Nat Ray. The soldier quickly stood at attention and saluted: "Yes, sir. My name is Thordan Coyle. I went to a cafe opposite the police station today, and heard people in the cafe discussing the direct dismissal of Director Samir Angel. I learned from them that Director Angel doesn''t seem to have any real power, and everyone doesn''t respect him. Everyone seems to mean that there seems to be no difference if he is in the police station or not. But I haven''t heard of the specific reason. " Fang Lang nodded and said: "Any more?" Seeing the soldier shaking his head, he looked at the other soldiers. The soldier next to him saw Fang Lang''s gaze and said quickly: "Sir, I pretended not to overhear two policemen discussing at a newsstand about the dismissal of Chief Angel. They said that they finally understood why Deputy Director Bill Yakub had been the deputy director for more than ten years, but he was unwilling to be the director. It seems that all the police are following the orders of the deputy chief. " Hearing what this soldier said, Fang Lang''s eyes flashed, he nodded and said: "What''s your name? Did you hear anything else?" When the soldier heard that Fang Lang asked his name, he was overjoyed, and quickly saluted: "Sir, my name is Amy Weaver. I wanted to listen more, but these two people just had a cup of coffee at the newsstand and left, and I didn''t dare to follow them." Fang Lang nodded and said: "Well, yes, you''re right not to follow. Anyone else have any news?" The soldier next to this soldier said in a bit of embarrassment: "Sir, the situation I investigated is similar to them." Fang Lang smiled and said: "It''s okay! If there is anything different, just remember to tell me." The last soldier hesitated before speaking: "Sir, I learned that there is another deputy chief in the police station called Yusofa Bull. He is an alcoholic and runs a police club not far from the police station. Basically, he doesnt go to the police station to work, but drinks in clubs, and the police officers basically go to him for a drink after get off work. It seems that he has a good relationship with the police officers. " "Oh! Is there any other news about this Deputy Director Bull?" Fang Lang said with a thoughtful expression when he heard what the soldiers said. Seeing the soldier shaking his head, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Okay, everyone has worked hard! Go back and rest! Duarte, please stay!" "Yes, sir!" The soldiers all stood at attention and saluted and then left in line. Fang Lang pointed to the sofa in front of the desk, motioned for Duarte to sit down and said, then took out another cigar and handed it over: "Arrange two groups of people tomorrow to follow up and investigate the two deputy directors respectively. I want to know all their family and social relations. In addition, our Mayor Dursley will also arrange a group of people to investigate." Duarte hurriedly stood at attention and saluted: "Yes, boss." "Don''t worry, we are not in a hurry. I am quite busy these days, so you need to pay more attention to the Marine Corps affairs. Soldiers who have no missions should let them get acquainted with the situation of the base, and the training should not stop. We will soon expand to a regiment-level organization. You should hurry up on your studies. I mean, I want you to be the head of the regiment. I will help you solve the problems about the military rank. You have to try a little harder yourself. I don''t care what the other troops are like. My troops must train at least five days a week, and organize confrontation training. When I finish the work at hand, I will personally catch it. do you understand? " Fang Lang''s words made Duarte overjoyed. He didn''t expect that he would soon become the team leader after following Fang Lang in such a short time. hurriedly got up and saluted: "Thank you, boss. The subordinates must live up to the boss''s expectations, and only the name of the boss will obey." Fang Lang nodded with a smile, indicating that Duarte can go out. Fang Lang still trusts Duarte, otherwise he wouldn''t have kept him with him. But trust is trust. When the Marine Corps is really expanded into a regiment, Fang Lang will definitely continue to put some of his own people in the regiment. For this expansion, Fang Lang deliberately selected some Chinese from among the domestically recruited laborers to directly join his Marine Corps. There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Fang Lang arranged for someone to send his father to Mayor Dursley. Arranged Qi Qingshan to supervise the logistics personnel of the base, and began to check the list of base supplies provided by Major Mike. At this time, on the berth of the Universal Shipyard in New York, USA, engineers from the Universal Shipyard in the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Italy were filling the dry dock with water. At this time, a cargo ship with a small tonnage floating slowly on the berth is the experimental ship of the first container cargo ship built according to the drawings designed by Fang Lang. "Mr. Wan, please rest assured that during the construction of the ship, after our repeated confirmation, the structural strength of the ship absolutely meets the requirements. The question now is how to load and unload such a huge container. There is no way to rely on manpower. " The ship engineers are only responsible for the construction of the ship, so they don''t know much about other parts, so they raised their own questions to Wan Chongxin. Wan Chongxin smiled and said: "Don''t worry! This whole set of systematic projects is carried out simultaneously. After the outfitting on your side is completed, we can drive the ship into our own dock to test whether the equipment of the port machinery is qualified. Even the car trailer chassis for hauling these containers, we have already produced more than ten sets. Just wait for your ship to confirm the delivery, we will start the whole system engineering test. " Hearing Wan Chongxin''s answer, the engineers were also greatly relieved. After all, they also had a detailed understanding of this container system. I dont want this invention that can change the pattern of the world shipping industry to be stuck on the loading and unloading equipment. (end of this chapter) Chapter 134: intelligence officer Chapter 134 Intelligence Officer The container ship in the Universal Shipyard was slowly dragged out of the dock. This experimental container ship can only carry more than 200 standard container containers. But it serves as a test for the entire container transportation system. Of course, this ship will also become a standard ship type for inland container containers. Watching the container ship slowly move out of the dock, a German engineer said: "Mr. Wan, according to my understanding of this kind of container ship, the tonnage of one of our container ships may easily exceed 100,000 tons. However, with such a large tonnage, I am very worried whether our power can keep up. You just said that the chassis for truck hauling is ready. Are you sure that with our current truck power, it can tow such a huge container? " Originally, Wan Chongxin had only a half-understood knowledge in this area. He was taken aback when he heard what the engineer said. He quickly looked at the other engineers and said: "Everyone express their opinions, is this what Mr. Carl said?" After several engineers discussed in a low voice, an American engineer said: "Mr. Carl''s scruples are justified. We may not be able to increase the tonnage to 100,000 tons on the ship so quickly, and there is no such urgency. As for trucks, maybe what we need is a tractor, not an ordinary truck. As far as I know, the current M20 of the U.S. military is also called the Diamond T980 tractor, which can do this job. It is equipped with a 13.4-liter "Hercules" 6-cylinder diesel engine with a maximum power of 185 horsepower, matched with a 4-speed mechanical gearbox with a three-stage transmission. The top speed is 37 km/h. Maybe we can entrust them to Diamond Auto to customize a professional container tractor for us. " After listening to the engineers, Wan Chongxin gained a new understanding of the supporting system of container transportation, and began to consider whether he should report to the boss. After all, according to the current progress, perhaps by the first half of 1946, container ships may officially enter the market. At such an important moment, there should be a figure of the boss! Natal Naval Base, Brazil, returned from the city hall to Fangxin Mountain in Natal, and found Fang Lang, who was processing documents in the normal office. "Lang''er, the artillery production equipment we brought back from Japan will soon arrive at Santos Port in Sao Paulo. What are you thinking about now?" Hearing his father''s reminder, Fang Lang remembered that he hadn''t answered General Dutra''s question about the establishment of a military factory! Can''t help scratching his head and said: "Father, how much liquidity does Fangyuan Group have now!" "This may have to be asked about the group''s finance. If I remember correctly, seven or eight million dollars of liquidity can still be drawn. Why, do you want to use it?" Hearing his father''s answer, Fang Lang also scratched his head. It''s really dangerous to hit the hammer here and there in his house! The two of them didn''t even know how much their own family had, which made Fang Lang''s sense of urgency even heavier. "Don''t move this batch of equipment. I want to have a good chat with our future Mr. President. If our family establishes a military industrial enterprise, what kind of support can the government provide." "We are going to set up a military industrial enterprise again, and we are too busy now. Will your stall be too big?" "Oh! There is no way, this is General Dutra who brought it up to me on his own initiative, and I can''t take it if I don''t want to! Take a look at these two days and take the time to quickly build up the assistant team I told you about last time. Personnel are drawn from the current management team and financial team of each branch. The office location is to find a place to work in the base first. When the bank building is constructed, an office building will also be built by the way, and it will be moved there at that time. I was able to get through the Natal thing pretty quickly, and my time loosened up after that. " Just as Fang Lang sent his father away, a second lieutenant from the Brazilian Intelligence Agency walked in with a dozen thick documents under the guidance of the guards. Fang Lang''s head started to hurt when he saw such a large dozen of materials. How could he have time to sit here and study so many things slowly! Directly said to the second lieutenant: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, are you familiar with all these information?" The second lieutenant is a white man in his thirties, with a small scar on his left forehead, which looks like a scar cut by a sharp weapon. Fang Lang saw him the first time, and instinctively told him that this was a hard stubble. "Report, sir, I know all this information, some of which I collected." "Oh! So. Are you an intelligence officer based in Natal?" "Yes, sir, I am very clear about the situation in Natal." "How many people do you have in Natal? Where is the office?" Hearing Fang Lang''s question, the second lieutenant officer who had been lowering his head raised his head to look at Fang Lang. Perhaps it is not convenient to disclose the information of the intelligence agencies. However, Fang Lang still looked at the second lieutenant officer waiting for his answer. Seeing Fang Lang''s resolute attitude, the second lieutenant could only speak: "The intelligence bureau has only 20 people in the Natal substation, and we work in the National Guard station." Hearing the second lieutenant''s answer, Fang Lang nodded and said: "What''s your name? Are you the person in charge of Natal Station?" "Reporting officer, my name is Sirio Reich, and I am the head of the Natal Intelligence Station." "Starting tomorrow, you will move to my naval base to work. I will need your intelligence support at any time." Fang Lang''s words stunned Lieutenant Lei Qi, and he drove Fang Lang in a daze. "Why not? The intelligence agency can''t work with my First Fleet?" "Sir! Our intelligence department has confidentiality requirements, and working in your naval base may be discovered by hostile forces." "Will you not be found in the National Guard? Well, now I am the chief military officer of Rio Grande do Norte, and I will communicate with your superiors. I hope you can let me see your ability, if I am not satisfied, I will directly ask you to replace you. " Maybe because he has never met such a strong leader, Second Lieutenant Lei Qi didn''t know how to answer this question for a while. And Fang Lang was also angered by a bunch of bad things here in Natal. Originally, at the beginning, Fang Lang planned to arrange personnel to investigate thoroughly, and then deal with local forces. After returning to the base, I realized that my company is still in a mess. How can I have the time to tangle with the little Karami in these places on small things! I am not a small character now, but the military commander of the state of Rio Grande do Norte. Military management has no sympathy to talk about. Seeing that you are unhappy, they will classify you as hostile forces and eradicate you. Seeing that Second Lieutenant Lei Qi didn''t speak, Fang Lang didn''t bother to pay attention to his thoughts and said directly: "Tell me about the big power in Natal!" Fang Lang''s question was really his main job this time, so he answered without hesitation: "Reporting sir, there are currently three forces in the local area, the largest of which is the Jacob family. The patriarch is Theodor Yakub. This family controls all the salt trade in Natal, and the specific management is managed by his eldest son He Burt Jacob is in charge. In politics, Bill Yakub, the deputy police chief, is his second son, and his youngest son, Nino Yakub, is the boss of his Roy Gang. In addition to running the salt business on the surface, this family is secretly the largest DP seller in Natal. The second force is the current mayor, Mr. Dursley, who is the president of the Natal Regional Agricultural Association. Huge influence among farmers in Natal; The speaker of the third force, Natal, Jada Brook, is less powerful than the other two forces. He is president of the Cattle Industry Association of the Rio Grande do Norte region. " After hearing Lieutenant Lei Qi''s words, Fang Lang shook his head with a smile and said: "I thought, how capable are each of them? It takes a long time to engage in a gangster, a farmer, and a herdsman! Isn''t there any decent industry in the local area?" The local industrial strength is relatively weak. There were only some small workshop-style sugar factories and Mr. Brooke had a slaughterhouse, and there were no other decent factories. Natal mainly exports agricultural products directly. However, after the US military stationed in Natal, in order to build a base, a cement factory was directly built in Natal. After the U.S. troops withdrew, a cement factory was occupied by the Yakubu family. However, because there is no technology, there is no ability to produce. " Fang Fanglang has increased his knowledge here. Just such a stinky fish and rotten shrimp made him think he was such a powerful character. He almost sat at the poker table with them and played cards together. After figuring out the situation, what cards do you still play! Just turn the table over! Who told us to have the strength! There is a saying that the right does not expire and become invalid! What else is there to say. "Okay! Then I understand. Under my jurisdiction, no evil forces are allowed to exist. I will give you one day. Tomorrow afternoon, I will see that Yakubu family disappear from Natal. Can you do it?" Second Lieutenant Lei Qi was taken aback and thought: Boss, Im just an intelligence officer who came here to deliver information. You asked me to do such a big thing, and its hard to do business after I go back! Before he could speak, Fang Lang''s disdainful voice came from his ear again: "Why are the people in the intelligence agency incapable of action?" This radical method is too bad. It is not a matter of inability to act, but rather, the Intelligence Bureau is an independent department. How can it do such a thing without receiving instructions from its superiors? Lech smiled helplessly in his heart, looking at the young colonel officer in front of him, wondering if he should tell the truth. Unconsciously classified Fang Lang into the ranks of reckless men, not knowing how big his background was. Unexpectedly, he can be a captain of the navy at a young age, but he is completely useless in doing things. After thinking about it, he decided to answer Fang Lang''s question: "Sir, our intelligence bureau is an independent department, which is directly under the leadership of the General Staff and cannot directly follow your command." Fang Lang smiled and said: "It means that you can handle this matter, but you don''t want to listen to my orders." Glancing at Second Lieutenant Leitch, he directly dialed Blackwell''s phone number. "Brother Blackwell, I don''t have enough manpower, can I use your intelligence officer named Reich?" Blackwell on the other end of the phone was taken aback. What is the situation with Fang Lang today? Where did he get angry and want to vent! Without thinking too much, he said: "What''s the matter, you give him the phone, and I''ll talk to him." (end of this chapter) Chapter 135: sympathy labor Chapter 135 condolences to laborers Fang Lang handed over the phone in his hand, and kept looking at Second Lieutenant Lei Qi who was calling him. At this moment, he still didn''t understand who was on the other end of the phone, so he hurried forward to answer the phone and said: "Hello, sir. This is Sirio Reich. Yes. Okay. I understand sir." The call ended soon. After receiving the call from Second Lieutenant Lei Qi, Fang Lang said to the inside: "Brother, I won''t make things difficult for you!" Blackwell said with a hearty smile: "Of course not. You are a senior general of our army. Serving you is one of the duties of the Intelligence Bureau. Don''t worry, you can just order him to do what you need." Fang Lang also laughed loudly and said: "What I''m waiting for is your words. I''ll go to Rio in two days, and we''ll have a drink together." After finishing the call with Blackwell, Fang Lang looked at Second Lieutenant Leitch standing in front of him with a serious face and said: "Is it possible to make the Yakubu family disappear tomorrow afternoon?" "Report, sir, our Intelligence Bureau alone can''t do it." What support do you need? "At least three hundred professional soldiers are needed." "enough?" "enough!" "You have three hundred people, and a whole day''s time, I will see the result before five o''clock tomorrow afternoon." "Yes, sir!" Fang Lang called Duarte in front of Leitch and asked him to transfer 300 people from the Marine Corps to the Second Lieutenant Leitch in front of him. Looking at the back of Second Lieutenant Lei Qi turning and going out, Fang Lang suddenly smiled. The reason why Fang Lang suddenly forced Second Lieutenant Lei Qi to work for him was because Fang Lang smelled a dangerous breath from him the moment he entered the door. This breath does not mean that he is threatening his own safety. Instead, his first feeling to Fang Lang was that this was a dangerous character, and his intuition told him that this person was very powerful. Although I dont know why you are only a second lieutenant in your thirties, but this is also normal in the Brazilian army. If you have no money and no background, you will easily disappear in the crowd and find it hard to stand out. Since Fang Lang feels that he is very powerful, his first thought is to take it for his own use. It may not be effective to solicit him directly, so he can only be tougher and let him work directly for him. After working once or twice, I gradually got used to it, and it became logical to arrange work for him later. Of course, the premise is that Fang Lang can convince his superiors. Can Fang Lang convince his superior? Obviously it is possible. Although Fang Lang and Blackwell are good friends, I have to say that Fang Lang feels that Blackwell is not suitable for intelligence work. But this second lieutenant named Lei Qi made Fang Lang feel that he was born to be the one who should eat this bowl of rice. I just dont know if I offended someone and was arranged to come to a place like Natal. This also happened to give Fang Lang a chance to discover him. After handing over these troubles, Fang Lang suddenly felt as if he had relaxed. It seemed that there was something wrong with his original thinking! Management should be to put the right people in the right positions, and let them do a good job according to their own requirements, isn''t it all right? You can pick up girls by yourself and enjoy life instead of being so busy now! Looking at the scenery outside the window, after smoking a cigar, Fang Lang suddenly remembered that the rescued more than 2,000 fellow villagers didn''t know what happened, and Qi Qingshan didn''t come back to report. Couldnt it be that I couldnt find a doctor? Thinking about it, I was not at ease, so I decided to go and see for myself. At this time, in a large warehouse at the Natal Naval Base, Chen Hongqing was experiencing the joy of the rest of his life after the catastrophe. Chen Hongqing is from Tianjin. He is 43 years old this year. Before the devils occupied Tianjin, they ran a textile factory in Tianjin. Because of various suppressions by the Japanese, and the machinery and equipment were not advanced enough for the Japanese, they could barely maintain it. Compared to most of his peers being forced to close down, the result of selling the factory to the Japanese is different. He has a group of old guys who support each other, allowing his factory to survive under the siege of the Japanese. It''s a pity that this kind of life didn''t last long. After the Japanese occupied Tianjin, they had to forcibly buy his factory to unify Tianjin''s textile industry. Chen Hongqing is a businessman who has been influenced by traditional culture since he was a child. Thus, although he is young, he has made a good reputation in the Tianjin business circle and made many like-minded people. As a Confucian businessman with a serious family and country situation, of course he can''t just watch his foundation become a booster for Japanese aggression. He could only bear the pain and burn half of his body and mind to the fire. This can be regarded as offending the Japanese, and Chen Hongqing was arrested directly. It was a good meal of torture, and finally his family members were all imprisoned. I dont know how long it has been like this. Suddenly, one day, they were stuffed into a ship. After nearly half a month of sailing, they were transported to this place where summer is always year round. Many of his acquaintances accompanied him, most of them were businessmen and family members who had not succumbed to the Japanese majesty, and of course there were some ordinary laborers. After coming to this place, everyone basically lost contact with the outside world, and could only work non-stop every day in exchange for a meager ration. After a few years, everyone''s body collapsed, just when everyone thought that this life was their fate. A group of foreign devil soldiers speaking incomprehensible foreign language suddenly broke into the mine and rescued everyone. Chen Hongqing noticed that the officers leading the team should be compatriots. Because, he heard the officer asking everyone some things in Chinese. Unfortunately, after the long-term torment of the past few years, although Chen Hongqing is only in his forties, he already looks like an old man in his fifties. The officer did not communicate with him, and everyone was taken to a large base. There were soldiers patrolling nearby all the time, which looked like a military camp. At first, when Chen Hongqing thought that he and others were about to be resold, the person who had communicated with the officer told a shocking news. "Old Li, you mean the officer told you that the little devil surrendered?" "That''s right! The young officer told me just now." "Then can we go home? It''s been so many years, I don''t know what the family looks like now." "Did you say where we are now? This place that doesn''t even have winter has already reached the end of the sky!" "What is the sky! Don''t talk nonsense if you don''t understand." Looking at everyone''s chatter, the man who had communicated with Qi Qingshan said: "Everyone, please stop arguing. The officer just said it. We have to wait for his superiors to decide how to deal with it. Everyone should take the time to rest and take care of their health before we talk about it." "Old Li, did the officer tell you what''s going on in my hometown now?" "No! I don''t dare to ask! Well, the officer didn''t say a few words to me, didn''t I tell you all? I don''t know more!" Chen Hongqing knew this man who had communicated with the officer. His name was Li Tianbao. He was originally an apprentice of Tianjin Hongji Winery and had been working in Lao Hong''s winery. It is said that he is about to become an independent teacher, and somehow the wine shop was also copied by the little devil. This Li Tianbao can be regarded as a man who has been taking care of the wife and children left by Lao Hong''s family, and has always treated Lao Hong''s wife as his own mother. Lao Hong''s two sons and daughters are regarded as younger siblings. If it wasn''t for Li Tianbao''s help in the mine, the orphans and widows left behind by Lao Hong would have died long ago. Chen Hongqing still remembers that once a devil guard wanted to spoil Lao Hong''s daughter, Li Tianbao was like crazy, and he wanted to fight the little devil desperately. The little devil''s bayonet pierced into his palm, and he didn''t even make a sound. If the old devil in charge hadn''t come forward to stop him, Li Tianbao would have died long ago. Of course, although Li Tianbao was not directly killed, Li Tianbao was tied to a wooden stake outside the mine and exposed to the sun for three days. If it wasn''t for the children of Lao Hong''s family who secretly fed him water and porridge, Li Tianbao would have been taken away by the King of Hell long ago. While Chen Hongqing and the others were still thinking wildly, a young officer, under the protection of a group of soldiers, entered the large warehouse where they were temporarily housed. Chen Hongqing can tell at a glance that the officer in front of him is definitely a high-ranking officer, and he should also be Asian, not Japanese, because he has never seen such a tall Japanese. While Chen Hongqing was still looking at the young officer in front of him, he saw the young officer walking straight towards him. After all, the position where he lies is relatively close to the gate of the warehouse. "Old man, is there any discomfort in your body?" Hearing the young man''s fluent Chinese, Chen Hongqing didn''t know why his eyes turned red, and tears couldn''t stop rolling in his eyes. He knew that he was saved, and he didn''t have to go back to the dark mine. Fang Lang looked at the skinny old man in front of him with red eye circles, and understood the excitement of the old man''s remaining life after the catastrophe. He stretched out his hand and held the calloused hands, put them on his own and took a closer look. The skin on his hands was very rough, the color was very dark, and the joints were thick. It looks like the hand of a typical manual laborer. "Old man, don''t cry, don''t worry! You are safe." Chen Hongqing looked at the young officer in front of him, and said comforting words, but the tears still couldn''t be held back by his eyes, and flowed down his cheeks. Maybe this is old tears! With a choked voice, he said: "Thank you! Sir, thank you! Unexpectedly, I, Chen Hongqing, will be saved one day." "Mr. Chen, you are welcome, we are all compatriots, and it is only right for us to lend a helping hand when compatriots are in trouble. Everyone just came out of that devil''s lair, and your body needs to recuperate, so don''t get too excited. If you need help, you can tell us, we must be obliged to do it within our ability. " People nearby saw Fang Lang sitting beside Chen Hongqing, looking at the guards with live ammunition beside him, although they were a little scared, they still couldn''t help coming over curiously. Maybe it was because of the fear of the soldiers, so everyone didn''t speak, but just watched Fang Lang and Chen Hongqing''s communication helplessly. "Sir, did Little Japan really surrender? How is the family now?" After finally suppressing the excitement in his heart, Chen Hongqing still couldn''t hold back and asked Fang Lang the question he was most concerned about. Showing a gentle smile, Fang Lang nodded and said: "Yes, just last month, the little devil officially signed the surrender agreement and announced his surrender." Now, the people who had been listening to the conversation between the two could no longer bear the excitement in their hearts and shouted. "Oh! Oh! The devil has surrendered, the devil has surrendered." (end of this chapter) Chapter 136: talent in the workforce Chapter 136 Talents in Labor Looking at the cheering people in the warehouse, Fang Lang smiled knowingly. He could understand the mood of these people who had been tortured, imprisoned, and forced to work by the little devils at the moment. It took a while for everyone''s cheers to subside. Fang Lang saw everyone looking at him, obviously waiting for him to tell them the good news about his hometown. Fang Lang looked at everyone''s expectant eyes, and said in a low tone: "The current hometown is not safe. Lao Jiang is preparing to destroy the peace. You may not be able to go back now." Hearing Fang Lang''s news, everyone began to whisper to each other, obviously a little at a loss about not being able to go home. "Don''t worry, everyone. Since I rescued everyone, I will definitely find a way to arrange your life. Everyone should rest here first. After everyone recovers, I can arrange work for you, and when your hometown is completely safe, you can have money to buy tickets to go home and have a look. " After listening to Fang Lang''s words, everyone was relieved, and Chen Hongqing took the lead and said: "Sir, where the **** is this place! We seemed to have been on a boat for half a month when we came here!" "This is Natal, Brazil, and it''s far away from my hometown! But don''t worry, when everyone recovers and earns money, they can fly back directly. It will be much faster, and it won''t take so long." Chen Hongqing is very clear in his heart that people like himself are currently penniless, and if they want to go home, they can''t even afford a plane ticket, let alone a plane. So, the most important thing now is to find a job. Although the officer in front of him is a compatriot, it may not be easy to find a job for so many people to support their families at the same time! Hesitating again and again, he still opened his mouth and said: "Sir, I don''t know what jobs are suitable for us in this Natal. I think there is nothing wrong with my body and I can go out to work at any time. I used to run a textile factory in my hometown. If there is a textile factory, I can work in the textile factory. " People around heard Chen Hongqing''s words and spoke one after another. "I can make wine." "I am a chef." "I know printing and dyeing." "I can drive." "I can farm." "I am a blacksmith." "I''m a carpenter." "I am a mason." . Hearing the voices of these people, Fang Lang couldn''t believe his ears. When did the proportion of technicians in his hometown become so high, there were so many talents casually. Fang Lang suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said to Chen Hongqing: "Mr. Chen, do you know textiles? What exactly do you do!" Before Chen Hongqing could speak, a younger voice came from the side and said: "Boss Chen, he is the owner of our Daqing Spinning Mill." This really made Fang Lang''s eyes light up. He ignored the words next to him and waited for Chen Hongqing''s answer. "I''m ashamed to say that I am indeed the owner of the Tianjin Daqing Spinning Mill. Later, the little devils took over Tianjin and wanted to take my spinning mill away. In a fit of rage, I burned my family business down." "Okay, the old man is bold enough! Someone Fang admires it. Listen to what the young man said just now, how many of your workers are there?" "Hi! I''m the one who got them involved. There are more than 30 people here who used to be workers in my factory." Isn''t this getting better? It''s like someone will give you a pillow when you want to sleep! "Haha. Good! Mr. Chen, would you like to reopen your Daqing Spinning Mill in Brazil!" After hearing Fang Lang''s words, everyone was shocked. Chen Hongqing also said helplessly: "Sir, it''s not that I don''t want to make a comeback, but I''m penniless now, and I can''t afford to eat. How can I open a spinning mill!" Fang Lang smiled and said: "Two options, one is that I will ask you to be the shopkeeper and manage the textile factory for me. The other is that I will invest in you and you will be your own boss, and we will share dividends in proportion." Chen Hongqing was obviously taken aback, looked at Fang Lang''s serious expression and said: "Sir, are you serious? Opening a spinning mill is not an easy task. You must have equipment, raw materials, sales, and a place. The most important thing is to invest capital. If something goes wrong, you may lose all your money." "Don''t worry about these, I''m not just talking nonsense. Before I met you, I had already purchased a complete set of the latest textile machinery from the United States. The reason why I want to build a textile factory here is because Natal is an important cotton producing area in Brazil, and the best quality long-staple cotton is produced. Building a textile factory in Natal has a very good raw material cost advantage. As for sales, it is not a problem. We can sell to Brazil or directly to Europe and the United States. This is the place where Brazil is closest to Europe, America and Africa, and the transportation advantage is very obvious. I was still thinking about who should manage the factory. Now, arent you the best candidates? " Seeing that Fang Lang has prepared everything and considered all the issues, what else is there to say! Chen Hongqing said directly: "If the officer can trust me, I am willing to be the shopkeeper of your textile factory. Don''t worry, if it is other things, I dare not guarantee it, but the textile factory is my old business, and I promise to be able to make your textile factory Its booming. Seeing Chen Hongqing patted his chest with a firm expression, Fang Lang knew that his textile factory didn''t need to worry about himself. smiled and said: "Okay, since you choose to be my shopkeeper, I won''t be stingy. I will give 5% of the textile factory''s share capital as an equity incentive. If you or the employees of the textile factory perform well, I will give you dividends in proportion to your shares. " Everyone''s eyes lit up when they heard Fang Lang''s words, and they felt that life had a bright future. Chen Hongqing said a little embarrassedly: "If it wasn''t for you, sooner or later we would be thrown into the wilderness. You have already saved our lives, how can we ask for dividends from your shares! Isn''t this ungrateful?" After listening to Chen Hongqing''s words, the people whose eyes were shining just now felt a little embarrassed. yes! This is everyone''s savior! How can I be so greedy! Fang Lang is not a person who promises to return favors. Although I have been kind to these people for saving their lives, if Fang Lang really squeezes them at will because of his kindness to them, everyone will soon turn against each other. I am talking about whether Fang Lang immigrated from the country or supported these compatriots, the purpose is to expand the influence of the Chinese in Brazil. What kind of person can have influence on a country! Of course they are middle-class people! Give your compatriots high treatment, support them to start their own businesses, and even make venture capital for them, so that you can quickly cultivate a high-income Chinese group! "We Chinese compatriots living overseas must help each other and unite together so that we can survive better. You work for me, of course I can''t treat you badly, and I give you dividends to make you work harder. Make the factory bigger and stronger, so that I can earn more! " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Chen Hongqing was very moved, although he has always been very kind to the employees of his factory. However, I never thought about paying dividends to my employees. At this moment, Fang Lang''s image in Chen Hongqing''s mind became extraordinarily stalwart. "Thank you, sir, for your trust in us. Don''t worry, we will do our best to die!" After Chen Hongqing finished speaking, he stood up, clasped his fists with both hands and gave a deep bow. The surrounding workers also stood up and bowed to Fang Lang. Looking at the performance of the people around him, Fang Lang felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction in his heart. He also stood up and saluted the people around him. After everyone got up, Fang Lang said: "Don''t worry everyone, we won''t just open a textile factory, I hope everyone can give full play to their strengths. All of you, count and see what skills you have. I will arrange suitable jobs for you according to your skills. If someone wants to do business, it is fine, but Brazil is a Portuguese-speaking country. If you want to do business, you must at least master Portuguese first. " Everyone began to discuss happily. At this time, a tall and thin man in the crowd stood up and said: "Sir, thank you for giving us a way to survive. I can barely write and count, so I volunteered to ask you for some pens and paper to take charge of counting everyone''s situation. I don''t know if it will work!" Fang Lang glanced at the tall and thin man, and gave instructions to the guards around him, who turned and left to prepare paper and pens. Nodded to the man and said: "Sir, you should be a scholar, right?" "Hi! I know a few words. My name is Xin Shiliang. When I was young, I was the office director of Fengtian City Hall. Later, the little devils occupied the three eastern provinces, so I went to Tianjin to make a living. I found a job as an assistant manager in Tianjin Food Factory, and I was able to barely support my family. As a result, Gou Ri''s little devils occupied Tianjin again. This time I didn''t run away, and I didn''t want to run away. He joined an anti-Japanese organization and planned to stay in Tianjin and fight the Japanese. Unexpectedly, this anti-Japanese organization was used by the Japanese for fishing. They were arrested as soon as they joined, and the whole family was involved. Later, he was sent to this ghost place to mine. " Listening to the self-introduction of the man in front of him, Fang Lang involuntarily began to look up and down the middle-aged man. Aged about forty years old, with a relatively normal face shape, thick eyebrows and big eyes. Wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses with a broken leg on his face, the right temple is tied with a rope, his face is unshaven and looks a bit sloppy. But now most of the people here look rather sloppy. Although this person is very thin, he has a big frame. He should be a strong man, but he is not well nourished, so he was starved to become what he is now. However, this image does not match the image of a person who can be an office director in my impression at all! In Fang Lang''s impression, the director of the office is generally a figure with all faces and exquisite faces! In front of him, Xin Shiliang looks like a straight-faced guy from the Northeast, he can''t see any tact at all! And if you want to fight against Japan, you can join the fake anti-Japanese team. Wouldnt your mind be too bright? But being able to take the initiative to ask for the statistics of all personnel, it seems that he is also a warm-hearted person. Of course Fang Lang would not refuse. "Okay, since the husband is willing to share everyone''s worries, I will leave this matter to the husband." (end of this chapter) Chapter 137: intelligence operations Chapter 137 Intelligence Bureau Operations Just when Fang Lang was about to continue chatting with everyone, the sound of car brakes came from outside. I saw Qi Qingshan rushing back in a hurry. came to Fang Lang and saluted: "Boss, the doctor has arrived." Fang Lang glanced at the more than twenty white coats following him, nodded and said: "Since the doctor has arrived, let the doctor check everyone''s body first, and remember to tell the doctor if you feel uncomfortable anywhere. After taking care of our bodies, let''s start working while learning the language, shall we? " Thanks to everyone! Fang Lang pointed to Xin Shiliang again and said to Qi Qingshan: "Just now I asked this Xin Shiliang to count the situation of these workers. When the results come out, you can send them to my office." "Yes, sir!" Fang Lang got up, surrounded by a group of guards, and left the large warehouse where the workers were placed. That night, Fang Lang received the news that Second Lieutenant Lei Qi mobilized 300 Marines, and he didn''t pay much attention to it. Normally speaking, it is very difficult to eliminate a tangled family power, because a family often has a large number of people, and there will always be a few fish that slip through the net. And once someone slips through the net, the operation can actually be declared a failure. If the fish that slipped through the net is ruthless enough, it may launch a counterattack that will perish together. In this case, the person who launched the attack will not be worth the loss. As an agent of the Intelligence Bureau, Second Lieutenant Reich is qualified. He knows all the main figures of the local forces in Natal very well, and knows all their social relations. For example, Teodor Yakub, the patriarch of the Yakub family, an old man with a heartless heart, has a private villa by the sea in Natal. In the villa lived an eighteen-year-old girl whom the old man had just kidnapped and controlled with DP a few days ago. Almost every afternoon, the old man would spend at the seaside villa. At this time, the old man only had a driver and bodyguards with him. I don''t know if it''s been too long in peace, the old man actually doesn''t have any vigilance. Therefore, as soon as Fang Lang received the order to clear the Yakub family, Leitch arranged for his agents to control the old Mr. Yakub. Leach looked at the fat, bald old man who was **** on the wide solid wooden bed in front of him, and his eyes unconsciously began to glow with excitement. This is the most exciting mission he has carried out since he entered the Brazilian Intelligence Agency. He directly wiped out a big local family. For a low-level second lieutenant like him who was born in the bottom class, it was really a bit hot-blooded and out of control. When he came to the villa, he saw this bald old man with fat head and big ears, and saw the girl next to the old man who was suffering from D addiction and was scratching her body. If the young girl is voluntary, that''s fine. But all of them are controlled by this perverted old man with DP, which is unacceptable. Most of these girls are just this old man, the little girl he saw on the street when he was passing somewhere in the car, and with a look at him, the bodyguards around him will give the information of this little girl to the Roy Gang. Then the Roy Gang **** would kidnap the little girl and the family would never be found when they called the police. Because all the police know what''s going on, they don''t even look for it. And this kind of thing happens in Natal every two months. "Mr. Yakubu, I heard that you like letting little girls smoke these gadgets. This time I bought some from the Roy gang. I hope you like it." The old man who was tied to the bed and couldn''t move, his eyes widened and he looked extremely angry. However, his mouth was blocked and he couldn''t make a sound. Looking at the old man''s expression, Lei Qi said in embarrassment: "I''m really sorry, I forgot that Mr. Yakubu''s mouth is gagged, I''ll take it off for you right away." After finishing speaking, he reached out and removed the cloth strip from Yakubu''s mouth. The old man whose mouth had just been freed greeted him with a series of swear words. "Do you **** know who I am? I tell you, you are dead!" "Mr. Yakub, how could we not know who you are? You are the famous Mr. Theodor Yakub, the patriarch of the Yakub family!" Seeing the young man in front of him talking to him in such a relaxed tone, the old man knew that he had encountered a tough problem this time, so he changed his attitude: "Little brother, is there some misunderstanding between us! Is it because the children below are ignorant and have offended someone who shouldn''t be offended? Please tell me, and I will definitely tie him up and apologize to you face to face." Because Second Lieutenant Reich was wearing civilian clothes, Yakubu obviously didn''t know the identity of the other party. Second Lieutenant Lei Qi raised his hand and looked at his watch. It was already 4:30 in the afternoon, and he didn''t want to talk too much meaningless with the beast in front of him. "Okay, Mr. Yakubu, now I need to check the list of your family members with you. Please answer honestly. I need to see if the information we have is complete, understand?" Then he picked up the file bag beside him, pulled out a stack of documents and said one by one: "Your eldest son is called Herbert Jacob, right? He has two sons and a daughter. There are also two mistresses, and the mistress gave birth to two daughters, right?" Watching the young man in front of him pull out the information from the file bag and start asking himself questions, what he said made the old man''s head buzzing, what is he doing! Have you investigated your family members so clearly? Doesn''t his eldest son only have one mistress? It turned out to be two, and they gave birth to a daughter outside, I didn''t know it myself. At this time, the old man had begun to realize the seriousness of the problem, which made his body start to chill and tremble all over. Seeing that the old man didn''t speak, Second Lieutenant Leitch winked at the agent beside him, and the agent knowingly took out a cigar cutter, and directly clamped the little finger of old Yakubu''s right hand. The old man felt the cold touch from his fingers, and his frightened body trembled even more! kept saying: "Please, don''t, don''t hurt me, what do you want, you say, I will do it." Lech looked at the old Yaku with cold eyes and preached: "I just need you to answer my question! Got it?" Facing Leitch''s cold eyes, old Yakubu''s heart became even colder. What he wants to know most now is how he provoked the killer in front of him. "Ming, I understand, I will answer well, please don''t hurt me." Before Old Yakubu could react to the excruciating pain coming from his finger, he knew without looking that his finger was missing. Pain made him cry out. But the person in front of him continued to say in a cold tone like a robot, deaf and deaf: "answer my question." Old Yakubu was still screaming, and couldn''t hear Lei Qi''s question at all. Then he felt a cold sensation on the ring finger of his right hand. He knew what it was, and quickly suppressed the pain and said: "I said, I said, please don''t hurt me again. Yes, my eldest son is Herbert Jacob, but, I only know that he has one mistress, I don''t know that he has two mistresses." Hearing what old Yakubu said, Leitch was stunned for a moment, and carefully looked at the expression of old Yakubu, trying to distinguish the truth from the fake. It''s a pity that at this time, the old Yakubu''s painful facial features are distorted, and it is difficult to see other emotions except pain. "Open your eyes, look at me, and answer my question seriously!" Old Yakubu was shaking with pain all over his body at this time, writhing around on the bound bed, and after hearing what Second Lieutenant Leitch said, he tried to open his eyes wide. However, Reich could only see panic in his eyes. Lech shook his head in his heart, feeling that he might not be suitable for interrogation work, and he couldn''t tell the enemy''s emotions at all. "Tell me the name of a mistress you know." "His name is Ashnar Maria, and he is a dancer." "Okay! This person, we have mastered, are you sure about your eldest son, you don''t know other people?" "Really, trust me, that''s all I really know. Please, don''t hurt me!" Leitch shook his head after listening and said: "It seems that we can only ask these questions ourselves, so let''s ask what you know! Besides, this eldest son, Bill Yacoub from the Police Department is your second son, and Nino Yacoub from the Roy Gang is your youngest son, do you have any other children? " Old Yakubu shook his head repeatedly when he heard Leitch''s words: "No more, I only have three sons." Leitch smiled after hearing this: "As punishment for your dishonesty, you lost a finger again." Old Yakubu heard Lei Qi''s words, his heart was ashamed, and soon there was pain again on his right ring finger, which almost made his nerves twitch. "Give you another chance." Feeling the cold touch from his middle finger, old Yakubu trembled even more, desperately trying to pull his finger out from the edge of the cigar cutter. Hearing the slightly playful tone on the other side, he still bite the bullet and said: "It''s really gone, my lord, please, let me go! It''s really gone!" Immediately afterwards, the pain caused by the **** leaving his body was transmitted to his mind through the central nervous system, making his brain directly on the verge of shutdown, and he might faint at any time. But the people around him moved the cigar cutter to the index finger of his right hand without mercy. Looking at the old Yakubu who was a little slow to react, Reich casually poured a cup of steaming coffee on the bedside table on the old Yakubu''s head. The hot coffee brought old Yakubra back to reality, and felt the pain in his fingers again. Old Yakubu writhed desperately again. Reich''s calm voice came again. "Let me give you a hint, your eldest son''s mother-in-law." Hearing Leitch''s voice, old Yakubu seemed to hear a demon whispering in his ear. This demon knew all his secrets. It really frightened him too much. His body began to tremble violently again. "My lord, I''m sorry! I... I forgot, I... I''m not sure if that child is mine or not." "It seems that our old Mr. Yakubu is not honest enough! As far as I know, you spend a precious weekend every month to visit your uncertain son!" Hearing Lei Qi''s words, old Yakubu''s eyes became more frightened, and he said with an expression of seeing a ghost: "You... who the **** are you! You are all devils, devils." (end of this chapter) Chapter 138: The Fall of the Yakub Family Chapter 138 The Destruction of the Yakubu Family Looking into the eyes of old Yakubu, listening to him talking about the devil, Leitch turned his head and glanced at the girl who was **** next to him. I sneered in my heart, who is the devil among us? Or we are all devils. "Now go ahead and answer my question, do you have any other children?" There is no need for Leitch to say anything, the old Yakubu has already started to say frantically: "No, really no. I swear! I QJed the maid of the manor, had an affair with my second son''s wife, and I slept with many little girls in this villa. However, none of them were pregnant. Believe me, it''s true, I dare not lie to you again. Please forgive me. " Leitch took a serious look at the old Yaku and preached: "Okay! Seeing that you have finally been honest, let me make you less painful!" As he spoke, he opened the paper bag on the table, squeezed the old Yakubu''s mouth, and poured it all in regardless of the old Yakubu''s desperate struggle. Then he turned his head and said to the agent in charge of the execution: "You are responsible for cleaning up, and I will handle the rest!" "Yes, sir!" Leitch walked out of the room that smelled of blood and urine without looking back, and walked into the living room. The agent waiting in the living room saw Second Lieutenant Leitch coming out, and got up quickly. After Leitch nodded, he looked at the bodyguard who was handcuffed to the living room window and said: "Is Mr. Iskandar Ginas right?" The bodyguard raised his head, looked at Lei Qi angrily and said: "What did you do to Mr. Yakubu?" Leitch shook his head with a smile and said: "I think you should care more about yourself than that old guy." As he spoke, he took out a stack of photos from the file bag in his hand, and threw them in front of the bodyguard. The bodyguard looked at the photo on the ground following Reich''s movements. He just looked at it, and his face changed drastically, and he said tremblingly: "What do you want to do?" "I have a list here. I need you to call them in the name of old Mr. Yakubu and inform them to meet at the villa of the Roy Gang. Are there any questions?" Leitch sat on the sofa in the living room with a calm face. "Impossible, I can''t do this, you are trying to wipe out the Yakubu family." Hearing what the bodyguard said, Reich smiled sarcastically. "Since you are so loyal to the Yakubu family, why do you still have a private meeting with Nino''s woman? If you don''t want to call, I can give these photos to Mr. Nino of the Roy Gang. What do you think?" !" The bodyguard''s face changed drastically, and he said quickly: "No, you can''t do this. We are not a private meeting, I. I. We are first love, and I met Naya first." "Maybe you should go and explain to Mr. Nino, right? After all, I don''t care about these things. However, I think if you are really in love, shouldn''t you make this call? If we solve the Yakubu family, won''t you be able to be together in an open and aboveboard manner? " Lech reminded with a kind face. After listening to Lei Qi''s words, the bodyguard''s expression changed: "Will you not silence us?" Leitch shook his head with a smile and said: "I think you have misunderstood something. We are not a gangster. We are just trying to eradicate the cancer in Natal. If you cooperate actively, I can apply for a reward from the superior. How?" "Are you from the government?" Leitch smiled mysteriously and didn''t speak. Looking at Lei Qi''s expression, Mr. Bodyguard stood up directly and said: "Okay, I''ll be in charge of convening them for a meeting. You don''t need to provide a list. I know those people should be notified." Seeing Mr. Bodyguard so self-conscious, Leitch was even more satisfied, and picked up the phone on the table and handed it over. Mr. Bodyguard did not hesitate, clamped the microphone with his handcuffed arm, and began to broadcast the number! The agent next to him was obviously afraid of his report, so he walked silently behind him. Mr. Bodyguard glanced at him, but said nothing to the human in the microphone: "Sir, the parents asked me to inform you that an important meeting will be held at your beach house at eight o''clock tonight. There are important things to announce. You need to prepare the venue and notify all your subordinates to be there." "Sorry, I don''t know the specific content of the meeting. The order I received is to notify every member of the family." The first one was dismissed in a few words, and from the content of the call, Leitch could tell that this was Nino Yakubu who had informed the Roy gang. Watching Mr. Bodyguard keep making this call, it took nearly an hour to complete the call. Leitch nodded in satisfaction. At eight o''clock in the evening, a luxurious villa on Natal''s seaside road, perhaps it should not be called a villa, but a manor. Because, this place is too big and too luxurious. Forty or fifty gang members were scattered outside the manor, holding all kinds of weapons without any scruples. Although I don''t know why the old man suddenly organized a meeting for everyone, since the meeting is held in his own manor, he must be responsible for the necessary security. "Bill! Didn''t the old guy say to have a meeting at eight o''clock in the evening? We''re all here, why hasn''t the old guy come yet?" "Nino, please show some respect, that''s your father!" "What happened to father? Isn''t father an old guy? Could it be because he couldn''t get up on the little girl''s belly!" "Nino, let me warn you again, that is your father. It is very rude to discuss your father''s private life behind his back." "Okay, okay, stop arguing. Since everyone is notified that everyone is coming, there must be something important to announce. Please don''t let the guests laugh." "Brother, you are not the patriarch! This is my family, I can say whatever I want!" Just when the sons of the Yakubu family were still having cordial and friendly exchanges in the villa. The marines outside the villa have begun to encircle the villa in an orderly manner. The villa defended by the gang organization was naturally full of loopholes in the eyes of professional soldiers. Soon a few gangsters standing together smoking and chatting were covered with mouths and cut their throats with a knife. It was the first time that Leitch, who was fighting with the Marine Corps, looked at these soldiers in surprise. As an active military officer, he knew very well the fighting methods of the Brazilian army. But the Marine Corps in front of him was completely different from the Brazilian army he knew. After he explained the goal of the mission to the leader of the team, all the squad platoon leaders of the team began to actively gather in front of the commander to discuss how to fight. This is completely different from the tactics in which the soldiers in the Brazilian army rushed up and started after the commander gave the order. Although Second Lieutenant Lei Qi provided them with detailed villa information, they still sent their own investigation team to re-investigate the villa in detail. When a complete map of the battlefield situation appeared in front of Leitch, he was still surprised, because almost every enemy position was marked in detail on this map. A series of information such as whether there are secret sentries, enemy weapons and equipment, and firepower are displayed in front of Second Lieutenant Lei Qi. Second Lieutenant Lei Qi had never even heard of many of the professional vocabulary discussed by everyone. They arranged a detailed attack direction and attack route. The order of attacking the mission targets was assigned, and ten sniper teams were deployed around the entire villa to prevent the enemy from slipping through the net. When the battle really started, Leitch felt an indescribable silky feeling, especially when the soldiers in the commando group touched the enemy like ghosts, and silently eliminated the outer line of defense. When the enemy didn''t notice anything, Second Lieutenant Lei Qi felt a chill in his heart for no reason. If you become the target, you can basically give up resistance. What is professionalism? Second Lieutenant Lei Qi had an accurate answer for the first time. Finally, gunshots rang out. Immediately after the first gunshot, very rhythmic gunshots rang out from all directions in the villa. When the commander said that the battle was over and he could go in now, Second Lieutenant Lei Qi was still in deep shock and did not recover. I wanted to come with a team of 300 people, but actually less than 100 people made the move. The rest of the fighters were scattered around, watching the battle with binoculars. From time to time, I have to comment a few sentences and express my opinions. Second Lieutenant Lei Qi couldn''t help but rejoice in his heart, fortunately, this is his own. When the agents of the Intelligence Bureau walked into the venue, they saw the corpses all over the floor, and the captives squatting in the corner like quails. Waved his hands to signal the agents of the Intelligence Agency to start working. I was busy until after eleven o''clock in the morning of the next day, after all the backhands were dealt with. Second Lieutenant Lei Qi took all the gains and came to the naval base to report to Fang Lang. "Sir, a total of more than 40 sets of real estate, about 500,000 US dollars in funds, and countless guns were seized this time. One Natal Salt Company, three bars, one nightclub, one cement factory, and five thousand and eight farms were seized. One hundred hectares, one ton of DP. "Oh! The harvest is okay! Tell me, how to deal with so many things." Fang Lang smiled and tentatively said. Second Lieutenant Lei Qi said with a serious face: "Report sir, you are the chief of the Military Control Commission, so naturally you will handle it." Fang Lang smiled and said indifferently: "Okay then! Bars and nightclubs are handed over to you. In addition, I will give you ten sets of real estate, 100,000 cash, and drugs. I will handle the rest, no problem!" Rich obviously didn''t expect that he would have such a big harvest! With a look of surprise, he said: "Sir, this. This is not very good!" "Okay, since I''m in charge, listen to me. The operation of the intelligence agency needs financial support. Bars and nightclubs are entrusted to you to operate. You can provide funds and increase sources of information. As for the real estate, I dont care whether you live in it yourself or use it as a safe house. DP, you can figure it out. I hope that there will be no drug flooding in my jurisdiction. " "Yes, sir!" "Also, I will move your intelligence bureau to work in my base tomorrow. I will need your intelligence support at any time. Well! You should work in the name of the second division of the logistics department at the base!" I dont know why, Second Lieutenant Lei Qi did not refuse this time, but stood at attention and saluted: "Yes, sir!" After this operation, the Natal sub-station of the Intelligence Bureau has made a fortune, and Fang Lang didn''t say what they would do with the cash allocated to them. Obviously, this is the benefit for them, so there''s no reason for Leitch to be disobedient. (end of this chapter) Chapter 139: new arms business Chapter 139 New Arms Business Fang Lang was very satisfied with Lieutenant Lei Qi''s wit and interest, and smiled and said: "Natal''s police system is going to be completely reshuffled this time. What do you think about the candidate for the police chief?" Major Leitch was taken aback when he heard this. What do you mean, the police station is also handed over to us? Seeing Major Leitch''s hesitant expression, Fang Lang said casually: "My opinion is that Natal''s police system should be managed by both you and the city government. The director must be appointed by the mayor. But the second department of our logistics department must be in the police station, and at least one deputy director will be installed. . Easy for our policing system, you know what I mean? " "Sir, will this cause dissatisfaction with the city government?" "If they have any dissatisfaction, let him come to me, you just need to follow my orders, understand?" "Yes, sir!" Fang Lang was very satisfied, so that''s right! Once you accept the first order, you will start to accept the second order, and gradually you will completely obey the leader. "Isn''t there a deputy director left in the police station this time? What''s his situation!" "Sir, Director Yusofa Bull is Mr. Speaker''s person. According to the current situation, he will become the new chief of police in sequence." "It seems that our Mr. Speaker is a fisherman this time! Let Director Boole come to my office after you go out. You must hurry up and choose a suitable candidate for the deputy director. Do I need to make sure the police system is under my control? " "Understood, sir." "Tomorrow my people will go to the salt company, cement factory, and farm to officially take over the work. Let your people supervise their handover work, and don''t let people take advantage of the loopholes." "Yes, sir!" Just after Second Lieutenant Lei Qi left, Fang Lang picked up the action report in his hand and wanted to see the details of the operation, when the confidential phone on the desk rang. Fang Lang was taken aback for a moment. After all, this was the first time the phone rang. He didn''t hesitate, and answered the phone directly, only to hear a thick male voice from inside: "Excuse me, is this Colonel Fang Lang of the First Fleet of the Navy?" Fang Lang was sure he had never heard of this voice before, but the person who could call through a confidential phone must also be a person with certain authority, and said quickly and politely: "Hello, I''m Fang Lang, may I ask who you are?" Hearing Fang Lang''s affirmative answer, the voice inside couldn''t hear any emotions clearly: "Hello! Colonel Fang, I''m General Logistics Minister Metaru Leta. General Dutra told me that you have an arms procurement channel, right?" This is business! The bill for the last flight has not yet been settled! It seems that the God of Wealth is about to come to the door, and the bank must be built as soon as possible. In the future, all arms purchases must be paid from his own bank. You have to ask the General Logistics Department to open an account in your own bank to deposit money! "Ah! Hello! Minister Leta. Nice to meet you! That''s what happened! I did mention it to General Dutra." "That''s good! It''s Colonel Fang, according to the report submitted by the Ministry of War, now they want to set up the first tank division in Brazil, and we want to call for tenders. I wonder if your channel is willing to participate in the quotation? " I''ll go, what the **** is participating in the quotation? They are not a regular company, and the arms they sell are also active-duty equipment from the army. Simply put, this is an underground transaction. You want him to appear on the bright side. If the US intelligence agencies find out, wouldnt Mike and the others be finished? Besides, isn''t bidding on the surface just throwing yourself away and directly approaching the other party? Then how can I make the difference! However, the other party is the head of the General Logistics Department, and it is not acceptable to directly refuse. After all, my equipment has to be purchased through them, so I can only say: "I''m not sure about this, I can contact the other party. If they are willing to participate, I will bring them to visit you, okay?" "Of course no problem, then thank you, Colonel Fang! In addition, regarding the payment for the C46 aircraft you purchased yourself, we will also deposit into your account today, please pay attention to check!" Fang Lang heard a hint of dissatisfaction from Minister Leta''s tone. This made Fang Lang stunned, did he offend him somewhere? I thought about it for a while before I realized it, shit! It seems that I purchased equipment privately without going through the logistics department, which cut off people''s money! With the corrupt environment of the Brazilian government, logistics procurement is a fat job. This is really a **** disaster! It seems that this arms channel has no chance to earn intermediary fees! The head of logistics is not a character that can be offended. It seems that there is a way to make up for the relationship between the two parties. "Thank you so much! I''m going to Rio in two days. I don''t know if you have time to have a meal together!" Hearing Fang Lang said that he would treat guests to dinner, Minister Leta''s tone softened a bit and said: "Colonel Fang, you are too polite, tell me the place, and I will definitely be there!" Fortunately, it seems that I still have some weight in the Brazilian army. Minister Leta is not good at turning his face against himself because of this emergency procurement. After hanging up the phone, Fang Lang lit a cigar and let his brain run fast. The equipment of a tank division is not a small amount. Is it true that he has no chance? After smoking a cigar, Fang Lang called Major Mike of the US Logistics Department and said: "Brother Mike, I have a business here now, I don''t know if you are interested." Phone your microphone with a slightly tired voice: "Oh! Colonel Fang, as long as it''s a business, I''m interested, tell me!" "Our Brazilian Army wants to form a tank division, and now we are preparing to invite external bids. I don''t know if Brother Mike is interested." "A tank division? What is the organization of your tank division? How many tanks do you need? Wait, you said you want to invite bids?" "Uh! Yes, the Brazilian General Logistics Department is in charge this time, so direct transactions cannot be made. Is it convenient for you to operate?" The microphone on the opposite side lost its voice, and it took a while before he said: "If it needs to be in the form of bidding, I can''t participate. So, sorry!" Fang Lang knew that the other party would definitely not be able to do this business on the bright side, and he had already prepared for this, so he quickly said: "Brother Mike, you told me that you work in the general logistics, right?" "Exactly!" "As far as I know, the United States is now undergoing large-scale disarmament, and the first batch of disarmament has already begun!" "Yes, Fang, please speak up if you have anything to say!" "Okay! Brother Mike, I have a suggestion for you. Since you are going to disarm, there must be a lot of active equipment that needs to be decommissioned. Its okay for you to transfer some through private actions, but you also have to bear certain risks, dont you? Since the equipment is going to be decommissioned on a large scale, it must not be rusted and damaged somewhere! Why not directly ask the superiors to sell all the old equipment directly to the outside world? This can recover funds, can''t it? The officials of the Ministry of National Defense will definitely support this proposal, won''t they? In this way, you can sell arms directly to the outside world in an open and aboveboard manner! " Fang Lang followed the guidance carefully. The other side was quiet again for a while before saying: "Fang, your proposal is very good, but it is impossible for our Ministry of Defense to directly participate in your Brazilian army''s bidding, we are not a company!" "Haha. Isn''t this simple? Brother Mike, can''t we establish a company together? We are looking for countries in need all over the world. Then, just buy the retired equipment and sell it! This will make a fortune! " "Hey! This seems to be really possible! Maybe this proposal of yours can get me promoted! But you are not afraid that I will leave you and do it alone?" Major Mike seems to be really moved now. Fang Lang smiled and said: "Of course I''m not afraid. If you can lobby the Ministry of Defense to agree to sell decommissioned weapons, the company you set up can buy and sell, and the company I set up can also do it, right?" "Haha Fang, you are amazing, all you need is for me to submit this idea, right? But as far as I know, you have a good relationship with many generals of our US military. Why didn''t you propose to them, but told me this idea instead! " "Because you are young enough! Young people have a future, don''t they?" "Haha Fang, we are friends now. In the future, if you have any needs, please tell me directly. It''s time for you to come to the United States and set up a company with me." Obviously, Mike agreed to set up a company with Fang Lang to do this business. "Tomorrow my people will visit you in your office. Can you discuss the specific cooperation details?" "Okay, then let him come to me as soon as possible, and I will draft the report now." While Fang Lang was sitting in the office of the naval base and communicating about the arms trade, this earth-shaking earthquake was happening on the streets of Natal. Natal''s underground emperor, the Yakubu family, was completely wiped out overnight, causing all parties in Natal to panic, for fear that such a terrible thing would happen to them next. The mayor of Natal City, Mr. Dursley, was even more scalp-numbed. He knew very well that he just mentioned the situation of the Yakub family to Fang Lang. As a result, the Yakubu family, which had been oppressing themselves overnight, was wiped out. It all happened so suddenly. It was so fast that Mayor Dursley didn''t even realize it. This is a way of fighting that he can''t understand at all. Everyone shouldn''t be fighting openly and covertly with each other. Today I''ll make a fool of you, tomorrow you''ll play with me, grabbing the territory bit by bit? Why didn''t they follow the routine at all, and directly destroyed a century-old family humanely? What frightened him even more was that he only mentioned some of the Yakubu family''s ostensible forces. At that time, the other party seemed to be aware of this situation for the first time. But in the blink of an eye, the most secret forces of the entire Yakubu family and family members who were not in the family were all wiped out. From this point of view, Natal Fanglang has no secrets! Thinking of this, Mayor Dursley couldn''t help but feel a chill run down his spine. Hastily tidied up and got up to go out, going to the naval base to visit the chief of the military control committee. (end of this chapter) Chapter 140: Reactions from all parties Chapter 140 Reactions from all parties The speaker, Jada Brook, was also terrified. He knew less about the situation than Mayor Dursley. He didn''t understand how the whole thing happened and how it ended. But this does not prevent Mr. Brooke from admiring the Colonel from his heart. After all, fear comes from the unknown! At this time, Director Yusofa Bull, a casual chess player he had installed in the police station, found Speaker Brook. "Uncle, someone just informed me to meet Colonel Fang at the naval base and report to me. What should I do?" Looking at the slightly trembling nephew in front of him, Speaker Brooke was also a little worried, but he couldn''t ignore it. I can only bite the bullet and say: "Do you know what happened? Why was the Yakubu family wiped out overnight?" Director Yosofa Bull thought to himself, if I knew why, I would come here and ask you what you are doing! But facing his uncle''s question, he could only shake his head and say: "I don''t know either. After I received the news this morning, I wanted to ask the police about the situation. However, it turned out that all the policemen who were close to the Yakubu family were arrested by the military. I have no way to find out the news at all. " I heard that all the people who got close to the Yakubu family were arrested. What accurate information is this! Thinking that there are always a pair of invisible eyes silently watching his situation by his side, Speaker Brooke shudders. "Who notified you? How did you notify me?" "It was a phone call to my tavern, and I didn''t see anyone!" Chairman Brooke is still a little older after all, and needs to be more calm. "Then why do you still come to my place? Hurry up and report to Colonel Fang." Poor Chief Yosofa Bull doesnt even have the courage to compete with Chief Bill Yakubu, how can he have the courage to face this ruthless man who silently wiped out the Yakubu family alone? "But, I. I, I dare not." Looking at the hopeless nephew in front of him, Speaker Brook wanted to kick him up. Thinking about it, I haven''t visited the chief of the military control committee alone. It''s really rude. Looking at the current situation, the relationship between myself and this nephew in front of me must be clear to others, so I don''t need to hide it. It''s better to face it directly and openly. sighed and said: "Alas! We will have to face it sooner or later, so let''s go together now!" Hearing that his uncle was willing to accompany him there, Chief Yusufa Bull let out a long sigh of relief. Compared to the fear of big families like the mayor and Mr. Speaker, the ordinary citizens of Natal should not be too excited. The leaders of the Roy gang were basically wiped out, and all the gangsters were also captured by the army soldiers early in the morning. Only a small part escaped by hiding in the corner. However, the little gangsters who hid have long lost their former airs. What they fear most now is being recognized by people on the street and telling the army to be arrested by the army. There was no police on the street for a while, but the law and order situation was much better than before the police. From time to time, there were soldiers patrolling in jeeps on the street. This is the return to the familiar state of military control. Everyone was discussing what happened to the Yakubu family. "Have you heard? There was a shootout at the Yakubu family''s seaside villa last night, and all the leaders of the Roy Gang and the black police were wiped out." "It''s more than that! All members of the Yakubu family have been wiped out." "That is why ah?" "Don''t you understand? Our good days are coming soon. The military control committee found out that the Yakubu family was doing evil, and they will be eradicated directly." "After that, there will be no help from Roy, right? We won''t have to pay protection fees!" "It''s hard to say, there would be another gang without the Roy Gang." "Even if there were any other gangs, it wouldn''t be so early, so we must be taking it easy for a while." "I heard that the girl who disappeared every once in a while was taken away by the Roy Gang and given to the old patriarch of the Yakubu family to play with." "Yes! I heard that a girl who was kidnapped a few days ago was rescued this time. Unfortunately, she has already been ruined by those **** with DP." "What? It turned out to be like this, these **** died well, and we can finally live a good life for a few days." "Yes! These troops will be stationed in Natal in the future, and we can file a complaint with the army in the future." "Is this like this? I don''t know if I can join the army! Look at them sitting in a jeep, they are so majestic!" What kind of reaction will the market have? Fang Lang had already expected it, and this was what he wanted to see. As long as the army could maintain order, he would not worry about Natal getting into chaos at all. Director Yosofa Bull and Mr. Jada Brooke just arrived outside the gate of the naval base, and they met Mayor Dursley at the gate of the base, so they didn''t feel surprised. After a few words of courtesy to each other, after hearing the order to agree to let go, everyone simply walked in together. Came outside Fang Lang''s office door, and after waiting for the guard at the door to report, the three of them entered in a file. Seeing the three people walking in, Fang Lang, who had just finished talking with Major Mike of the United States, nodded and motioned everyone to sit down on the sofa together, and called out to the guard outside the door: "Guard, make four cups of coffee." There was a sound outside the door, Fang Lang got up and came to the sofa, and the few people who were just about to sit down quickly got up. After Fang Lang shook hands with them one by one, he signaled to sit down again. All the people sat down again, and the sitting postures of the three of them were obviously a little cramped. Fang Lang didn''t see it in his eyes, but said lightly: "Is there any important thing for the three of you to visit together?" The three of you looked at me and I looked at you, but they were unwilling to speak first. Finally, Mayor Dursley glared at the other two and said: "Colonel Fang, I have already checked with Mr. Fang from Fangyuan Group about the bank construction land, and Mr. Fang is very satisfied. Now it is about the price, which may need to be discussed by the listing council before a decision can be made. " Speaker Brook, who was sitting next to him, watching his eyes, nose, nose and heart, waiting for Mr. Mayor to finish talking, did not expect the first thing to be related to himself. Resisting the calm expression, I almost broke the defense, what kind of bank construction land, what kind of parliamentary discussion, I don''t know the **** at all! Cold sweat broke out in a flash, and ten thousand muddy horses galloped past in my heart, wishing to slap the mayor beside me to death. Fang Lang glanced at Speaker Brook''s pale face next to him, smiled and said: "This is what it should be, Speaker Brook, the Fangyuan Group has taken a fancy to the trading center building opposite the city hall and the parliament, and plans to build a bank there after it is demolished. At that time, we need to ask Speaker Brook to bring it to the parliament for discussion. We will pay as much as the price should be. We cannot let the Natal City Government suffer. " Regarding Mayor Dursley''s tripping up Speaker Brook, Fang Lang gently exposed it. Speaker Brooke understood what was going on after listening to Fang Lang''s words, and he couldn''t help but secretly scolded Mayor Dursley as a jerk, and was almost plotted by him. "Ah! This is a good thing! Our parliament warmly welcomes a large enterprise like Fangyuan Group to invest in Natal. As long as we receive the documents from the municipal government for all land purchase issues, we will definitely discuss them at the meeting as soon as possible, and we will never let investors wait. " Secretly, Brook also told Fang Lang that our council has not received the documents from the city government, so we don''t know about it yet. Of course Fang Lang understood what was going on, smiled and said: "Very well, our council is to have this kind of work efficiency, don''t quarrel over trivial matters, if there is no result from the quarrel, when everyone quarrels to a result, the opportunity will have been lost!" This can be regarded as a knock on Speaker Brook. Hearing these words in Speaker Brook''s ears, he naturally lifted his heart. nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, Colonel Fang, you are right. After I go back, I will convey your opinion to all the congressmen. We will definitely follow your instructions and make the most efficient parliament." Actually, Speaker Brook did not have any specific matters when he came here today. He said that he was here with Director Yusufa Bull, but he actually wanted to test Fang Lang''s views on the parliament. Now it is basically considered to have achieved the goal. Fang Lang nodded when he heard Speaker Brook''s answer, and said to Mayor Dursley: "Mr. Mayor, since you and Mr. Brook Speaker are here today, I will explain my thoughts on Natal to you. This can also be regarded as my management thinking as the chief of the Military Control Commission. I hope you can understand and implement it. " The two quickly sat up straight and nodded. I came to Natal for a few days and learned about the situation in Natal. The current economy is basically dominated by trade in agricultural products. This is out of date. So, I introduced Fangyuan Group to invest and build a factory in Natal, hoping to guide the agricultural economy to industrialization as soon as possible. We should rely on our advantages in agricultural product resources to develop the deep processing industry of agricultural products and drive the development of industrialization. In addition to the sugar factory that will be a joint venture with Mayor Dursley, Fangyuan Group is also planning to build a large textile factory in Natal. In addition to the textile factory, I also plan to further print and dye the woven cloth and introduce garment manufacturing enterprises. In Natal, cotton is directly produced into cotton yarn, cotton cloth and then to clothing, forming an industrial chain. If Mr. Brooke is willing, I also hope that Brooke will actively participate in the process of industrialization. The simple slaughtering and processing of livestock is further deepened, such as processing cowhide to make leather shoes, leather bags, belts, etc. There is also slaughtered beef, which we can subdivide into different grades and sell to Europe and the United States. You dont have to worry about the sales of the products. I will introduce the American global trade to Natal to purchase our products. Currently, Europe and the United States are waiting to be rebuilt. If we don''t take advantage of this time to accelerate the completion of industrialization, it will be even more difficult in the future. If I remember correctly, sugarcane can be used to make alcohol in addition to sugar. These are all industries that we can develop, arent they? " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, both of them looked uplifted. Of course, everyone knows to open a factory to make money. However, either they have no money, or they have no technology, or they are worried that they will not sell. Now that Fang Lang has released all his scruples for them, what else is there to say! (end of this chapter) Chapter 141: Knock the mountain and shake the tiger Chapter 141 Knock the Mountain and Shake the Tiger Mayor Dursley and Speaker Brooke were overwhelmed when they heard Fang Lang''s plan for Natal, and they wished to immediately join the rolling wave of industrialization. After Speaker Brooke heard that Mayor Dursley had reached a cooperation intention with Fangyuan Group to build a sugar factory in Natal, he refused to lag behind and said: "Colonel Fang, if possible, I would like to invest in the construction of a leather manufacturing factory." Hearing that Speaker Brooke said so, Fang Lang said happily: "Okay, Speaker Brook, if you lack technology or equipment, you can entrust Global Trade to purchase them. If you lack funds, you can go to the upcoming Brazilian Development Bank to get a loan. As long as they are willing to develop and make progress with me, I will fully support them. " Fang Lang''s words finally put the hearts of both of them back in their stomachs. "Colonel Fang, please rest assured, we will definitely implement your ideas seriously." Mayor Dursley quickly expressed his opinion. Speaker Brook even echoed it again and again. Director Yusofa Bull, who was on the side, heard several people talking for so long, but he didn''t say that he felt that sitting on the side was a bit redundant, but he didn''t dare to make the slightest movement. Fang Lang glanced at him, smiled and said nothing. Then he looked at Mayor Dursley and said: "Of course what we said is the future direction of Natal City, so as the mayor and speaker, what should we do?" Without waiting for the two to answer, Fang Lang had already asked and answered himself and continued: I think the most important thing is to create a good business environment. What is a good business environment? First of all, I think the traffic should be convenient. Lets see if the road traffic in Natal is convenient? " Mayor Dursley and Speaker Brooke looked at each other, a little embarrassed. Fang Lang saw that neither of them answered, and continued to say: I find it very inconvenient. Except for the two roads in the city center, the other roads are a pool of mud. The two roads in the city center are still roads from the colonial period! This shows that we basically did not develop after we broke away from the colonies, which is abnormal. So, my opinion is "if you want to be rich, build roads first", our city government and council can invest taxes and income from selling land into road construction. Look at the bases built by the Americans, all of which are made of concrete, how clean and tidy they are, and there is no need to be afraid of the rainy season. Our parliament must plan well, take into account the interests of all parties, and let everyone participate in the construction of New Natal. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, both of them seemed a little ashamed. Although this is not just a problem of the two of them, this is the fifth year that the two have served as mayor and speaker. It really seems like nothing has been accomplished. As a soldier, Fang Lang knew construction better than them, which made both of their faces turn red. "Colonel Fang, what you said is very reasonable. We have never had such a far-sighted plan before. Now that you have pointed out the direction for us, we will definitely build a new Natal under your leadership." Speaker Brooke immediately came out to express his opinion. Fang Lang doesn''t know whether he is flattering or really thinks so, it doesn''t matter to Fang Lang. If what he said today is not implemented, then he will replace someone who can implement it. Now that he has expressed his position, Fang Lang of course regards him as willing to follow his own direction. nodded to him and continued: "As for the second aspect, it is about the law and order environment. I know the reason why you took the initiative to come here today. Don''t worry, I am not killing innocent people indiscriminately. I absolutely cannot tolerate the bad public security issues in the society. Once the Yakubu family colludes with the police and robbers, once it is discovered, it will be eradicated resolutely. Today, I notified Director Yusofa Bull to come over to show my attitude. The police shoulder the great mission of maintaining social order. What is our police in Natal like now? Complicated with criminals, even worse than criminals. This is absolutely not allowed. " Director Yusofa Bull, who has been standing beside him like a transparent person, did not expect that the topic would suddenly shift to him, and the criticism would be so sharp. This made him feel like he was sitting on pins and needles, his face was flushed, and he didn''t dare to speak out when he wanted to defend himself. Fang Lang glanced at Director Yusofa Bull and said: "So, my first priority is to reorganize our police force so that they can truly shoulder the responsibility of maintaining social order. Now this responsibility falls on the shoulders of Director Yusofa Bull. I know that the reason why many policemen break the law and commit crimes is because of low wages. Here we need our council and the city government to discuss a realistic welfare package for the police. If the police are not paid well, it will inevitably lead to the police being paid for their work, which will further aggravate the deterioration of the public security environment. The corresponding business environment will further deteriorate, resulting in fewer factories, lower tax revenues, and a decline in the welfare of various government departments, forming a vicious circle. This time I was very dissatisfied with the security environment in Natal, so I struck out and directly eradicated the cancer. My troops will maintain this high-pressure situation recently. Any illegal and criminal acts will be dealt with directly on the spot. During this time, I asked all police officers to go to the barracks to receive closed training for one month. When I think you are qualified, you can go back to the police position and continue to work. If not, then you will be eliminated, understand? Mr. Yusofa Bull? " At this time, how dare Chief Yosofa Bull say anything wrong! He could only stand up hastily and say: "Understood, Mr. Colonel. Starting with myself, I must take the training seriously." Although the performance of the police chief so far is a bit poor, Fang Lang has not yet found a reason to replace him directly, so he nodded and said: I plan to establish a Natal police academy, all students can apply for our police academy, and only students who graduate from the police academy can become Natal police officers. This matter needs to be implemented after the mayor returns, and I will be responsible for the arrangement by the teachers of the school. " Mayor Dursley hurriedly got up and took orders. "Because there is a shortage of personnel in the police station, I will arrange some personnel to enter the police station, and they will participate in training with the current police officers. I hope that you can quickly adapt during the training period and build Natal''s police force into a combat-effective team as soon as possible. " Finally, our government departments must become a service-oriented government. Of course, this is a long way to go. We have to take our time, but we must first solve one problem, that is, the environmental sanitation problem. We have the Environment Agency in Natal! But look at the sanitation environment on the streets, what they do every day, I hope the city hall and the council will take care of these things in the future. If the Department of Health does not do a good job, then the parliament should be impeached and the city government should be replaced. Do you understand? " The three guests who came to visit on their own initiative were all given a good education. However, everyone is relieved, which at least shows that they are safe now and will not be eradicated overnight. On the way back, Director Yusufa Bull looked at Speaker Brook with a bitter face and said: "Uncle, do I still have to go to the training? What if I fail to pass the training?" Looking at his worthless nephew, Speaker Brook really wanted to kick him up, and said angrily: "If the training is not qualified, you should not come back. Didn''t you find out? If Colonel Fang''s plan is really followed, Natal will soon usher in earth-shaking changes. Maybe, we will develop soon. If you back down at this time, then you will lose everything, do you understand? After I go back, I have to take a good look at the assets of my family. Since I have the opportunity to open a leather factory, I can''t miss it. " Seeing that the nephew next to him still had an unlovable expression on his face, Speaker Brook couldn''t help but make a few words: "Look at what Colonel Fang meant, he didn''t want to directly destroy the results of the democratic election. Therefore, the director must still be yours, but he will definitely arrange for his own people to come in. As long as you can establish a good relationship with the newcomers and fully support their work, then you, the bureau chief, will be able to sit firmly. do you understand? " Director Yosofa Bull, who was feeling sorry for himself, heard his uncle''s words, his eyes lit up and said: "Is it like this? I''m good at making friends! I understand when you say that. You can rest assured that you will fully support their work." Speaker Brooke sighed with a wry smile, shook his head and did not speak. Fang Lang, who watched the few people leave, was smiling at the corner of his mouth. He didn''t expect that he just wanted to build a salt farm at first, but later, in order to test the ability of Lei Qi, an intelligence officer, he didn''t expect to achieve such great results. This is really planting flowers intentionally, but not blooming, and carelessly planting willows and willows to make shade! This action to eliminate the Yakubu family can be regarded as a successful result, but is this a knock on the mountain, or should it be called killing chickens to warn monkeys, or killing monkeys to warn chickens? Now its all right, speak out your ideas and let them implement them. If they do well, they will be rewarded, and if they dont do well, they will be replaced. Isn''t this relaxing? It turns out that this is what a leader should do! Just put the right people in the right positions and arrange the work! oops! Easy! and many more! Business matters are not settled yet! Depressed, when will my assistant team be in place? "Chongxin! I have something for you to do!" "You go to the General Logistics Department of the U.S. Army to find Major Mike. I talked to him and set up a joint venture arms trading company to help the U.S. military clear out decommissioned equipment. As for the person in charge after the establishment of the company, you can ask Mike for his opinion. If he doesn''t ask for a designated person, you can recruit from outside! " "Shares? Shares to see how much he can invest! My goal is to hold shares, you go and talk to him yourself." "What container transportation system is fixed? I may not have time to come over these two days, so let''s do it! I will try to find time to come to the United States within this month. You help me form an assistant team in the United States, and try to recruit people from various branches who understand the situation of the branch. I need to keep abreast of the specific situation of each branch and make plans. " "Okay, that''s it, we''ll talk when we meet." (end of this chapter) Chapter 142: Immigrants disembark Chapter 142 Immigrants Landing Just when Fang Lang had just finished the call and was about to relax on the sofa with a cup of coffee, there was a knock on the office door again. It seemed that he couldn''t relax, and sighed helplessly, Fang Lang said, "Please come in!" I saw Qi Qingshan walking in with Xin Shiliang. "Boss, Mr. Xin handed over the labor statistics to me. I thought he was responsible for the details, so I brought him here to report to you." Fang Lang nodded to the two, pointed to the sofa in front of him and said: "Well! Come in and sit down! Does Mr. Xin drink coffee?" Xin Shiliang looked at the large office, the huge mahogany desk and the sofa, and now he knew that the young man in front of him was the supreme commander of the military base. At the same time, he also serves as the chief of the provincial military management committee, which is similar to the image of the warlord Zhang Dashuai in his impression. Therefore, when I saw Fang Lang again, it was obviously not as bright as last time, but a little cramped. Hearing Fang Lang''s question, he quickly waved his hands and said: "Thank you sir, I won''t drink." "That''s right, I drink tea in my hometown, why don''t we try Brazilian tea today." As an adjutant, Qi Qingshan, of course, started making tea immediately. Yes, Brazil also has a long history of tea plantation, and the source of tea is the hometown of Macau. Its just that Brazils tea output is not as large as Indias. The main reason is that the Americas are the home of coffee, and people are more accustomed to drinking coffee. In fact, Fang Lang also likes to drink tea, but the original body has been living in America, and he has also developed the habit of drinking coffee, which prevents Fang Lang from picking up the habit of drinking Kung Fu tea in his previous life for a while. Watching Qi Qingshan make tea, Fang Lang suddenly had a special nostalgia for Kung Fu tea in his previous life. It seems that you have to find a way to get a set of exquisite Kung Fu tea set, and then choose a thick mahogany from the Amazon jungle to make an exquisite tea table. The best, there is a beautiful young lady next to her, a tea master, to perform exquisite tea art. The tea art here is literally tea art. oops! Don''t think about such a wonderful day. "If you want to talk about the craftsmanship of making tea, it still depends on the craftsmanship of your hometown in the south. Qingshan, you rough man makes tea without aesthetic feeling at all." Seeing Qi Qingshan making tea, Fang Lang said with a look of disgust. Fortunately, Qi Qingshan and Fang Lang are very familiar with each other, so they just smiled and didn''t say much. Xin Shiliang on the side relaxed a little, and said: "Kungfu tea in the south is indeed a must, which is very pleasing to the eye. The chief is a person who really understands tea." "Oh! Mr. Xin has also seen Kung Fu tea?" "When I was an assistant in a food factory, I had contact with customers in the south and met them twice." "It''s a pity that there are no tea masters in Brazil. In the future, if you have the opportunity to invite tea masters from the south, you must invite Mr. Xin to make a joint evaluation." "Sir, you are too polite. It is Shiliang''s honor to have such an opportunity." "It''s an honor or not. We are all compatriots, so don''t treat outsiders like this. Come on, let''s make up for it today and try the taste of Brazilian tea." As Fang Lang said, he signaled Xin Shiliang to drink tea, and he also picked up the teacup and took a sip, which barely tasted like tea. Unfortunately, the taste of the tea under Fang Lang''s influence is still somewhat different. Xin Shiliang didn''t dare to really relax and savor it carefully, he just took a sip and put down the teacup. Fang Lang put down his teacup and started chatting about business: "Mr. Xin, how many people have you counted?" Hearing Fang Lang started to ask about business, Xin Shiliang quickly sat up straight, took out a small notebook and said: "Sir, the total population is 2,130, including 1,800 males and 330 females. Among them, there are 350 ordinary workers. There were 870 farmers, 420 people with their own crafts, 300 soldiers, 20 policemen, 16 teachers, 101 businessmen, 42 company employees, Eleven others had worked as government clerks. " "Oh! So where do you put yourself in?" Obviously, Xin Shiliang put his heart into classifying all the people according to their jobs. He just didn''t know what category he would be classified into if he had experience in government work and management. Hearing Fang Lang''s question, Xin Shiliang smiled embarrassedly and said: "Well, Shiliang worked as a small director in the city hall for a while, so I classified myself as a government clerk." "Oh! So Mr. Xin wants to continue to engage in related work?" "Ah! This, Shiliang didn''t think about this problem, mainly because I personally felt that I didn''t do well when I was working as an assistant, so I did it" "Hmm! I see what you mean! Is there anyone here who wants to start their own business!" "Everyone is not familiar with the place of life and the language. Therefore, there is no idea in this regard for the time being." After understanding the general situation, Fang Lang said to Qi Qingshan again: "Well, that''s right! Gyeongsan, you first find some Portuguese-speaking people from Sao Paulo, and make sure that everyone can communicate in a simple language. After the equipment of the textile factory arrives, let them act as translators first, and build our textile factory as soon as possible. How did the doctor''s examination go? " Hearing Fang Lang asking about the physical condition of the workers, Qi Qingshan smiled and said: "Boss, everyone is in good health, mainly because they have been engaged in high-intensity labor for a long time, and their nutrition cannot keep up. They are all malnourished, and their bodies are extremely overdrawn. The doctor means that after a month or so of training, it will return to normal. " "That''s good. Mr. Xin, since you have been the director of the office, you will be responsible for assisting Qingshan to manage everyone during this period. Is there any problem?" "Please rest assured, sir, it is our duty." "Well! Very good. Then you go down first!" Early the next morning, the huge fleet from Japan finally arrived at the Natal Naval Base. Watching warships sailing into the military port one by one, Fang Lang felt full of strength. The arrival of this huge fleet also deeply shocked the people of Natal. It''s not that the residents of Natal haven''t seen a huge naval fleet. During the war, Natal has been stationed with a huge US fleet. But those are American fleets, and it is indeed Brazil''s own fleet that is docking here now. Suddenly, the sea in the distance was surrounded by crowds of onlookers. With the return of the naval fleet, the naval base, which had always seemed very empty, finally began to gain popularity. There were also two immigrant ships arriving with the fleet. Originally, Fang Lang thought it would be good if one ship could hold five hundred people. As a result, the immigrant team was too large. Fang Xinshui directly ordered the crew to remodel the cabins of the ships, and each ship insisted on transporting more than 1,200 immigrants. These two thousand four hundred immigrants were able to carry on some simple Portuguese conversations after nearly a month of study on board. With the help of the personnel who came with the ship to manage the immigrants, Fang Lang arranged all the farmers'' immigrants to the farm that had just been taken over from the Yakubu family. The farms with more than 5,800 hectares are mostly located in low-altitude areas, mainly growing sugar cane and rice. Fang Lang took great pains so that these farmers could take root in Natal. Instead of adopting the method of large farms in Brazil to resettle farmers, they signed land purchase contracts directly with farmers. All farmers buy land with loans from immigration companies according to their own wishes. Of course, the price of the land is lower than the Brazilian land price, and after adding interest, it is equal to the Brazilian land price. Based on Brazil''s vast land and sparse population, the land price is of course very cheap, which makes all the farmers ecstatic. Zhou Changlin was born as a farmer in Fujian Province. Unlike most of the immigrants who were sold, he was an immigrant who voluntarily applied to join. Fujian Province has many mountains and few people. Zhou Changlin''s family is a farmer in the mountains. In order to be able to grow food, his hometown has cultivated a large area of ??terraced fields on the hillside. But there are too many people in the family, and the output of the terraced fields alone cannot support the family. Before the war was over, he heard in the town that people from an immigration company came to recruit immigrants to go to Brazil, where there were as few people as possible to plant as much land as he wanted. Moreover, there are local Chinese forces protecting them, so there is no need to worry about being bullied. People from Fujian Province have always had the character of daring to venture and fight. They sold the land of their family in a flash of brains, moved to Shanghai, and boarded a ship to immigrate to Brazil. When I got on the boat, I found out that many of them were not voluntary immigrants, but were sold as piglets. This made him flustered, but fortunately the trainer appeared in time to dispel his worries. Originally, when the trainer told him that he could sign a loan purchase contract with the immigration company, he still had some scruples, fearing that it would be usury. When I got the contract and saw the price of the land, I couldn''t believe my eyes. In my hometown, I can only buy one mu of farmland at the price, but here I can buy ten mu. Even if the interest on the loan is converted, the price of one mu of land at my hometown can buy eight mu here. Then there is nothing to say. I looked at my wife and three children beside me. Although the oldest child is only fifteen years old and the youngest is only ten years old, they are all able to work in the fields. Thinking that the children will grow up and start a family in the future, Xin Yiheng directly bought 50 acres of farmland with a loan. When he came to the farmland he bought in the truck of the immigration company, he was simply crazy. Because, in addition to being all good paddy fields, the fields are now planted with rice. The contract stipulated that from this moment on, the land belonged to their family. At this time, he finally believed what the trainer said, and it turned out that the immigration company was really thinking of them. Mr. Fang sold such a good field of his own to them at such a low price, so there is nothing to say. The money to buy the prosperous rice growing in the 50 acres of rice fields is enough to pay off half of the loan! "Master, this field has already grown something!" Obviously, the wife next to her hadn''t realized what was going on and asked in confusion. "You stupid woman, Mr. Fang is taking care of us! The crops in these fields are ours, and we can pay back half of the loan once we sell them." "What? Isn''t Mr. Fang stupid!" Hearing what his mother-in-law said, Zhou Changlin was so angry that he slapped his mother-in-law on the back of the head and said: "You are so stupid! This is Mr. Fang taking care of our compatriots. Didn''t Mr. Mr. say that this is a tropical place? There is no winter at all, and three seasons of rice can be planted in a year. We can pay off the loan in one year and still have a balance. Damn, our good days are coming. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 143: Immigrants happy moment Chapter 143 Immigrant''s happy moment Just when Zhou Changlin smiled happily as his aunt, the farmers around him who chose to buy land with loans were all happy. However, most of the immigrants were sold on board alone. Therefore, one person would not dare to buy so much land, and most of them bought less than ten acres of land. Everyone is looking at the crops in their land and giggling. After all, even if you add the immigration fees that the immigration company needs to charge, plus the loan for buying farmland, it seems a bit out of the question now. After all, as long as you are not a slob, three years will be enough time to pay off all your debts. The only thing that makes people feel inconvenient is that the place where they live is still the worker''s dormitory in the original farm. Moreover, everyone is not allowed to build houses in their own fields. All housing must be planned uniformly and exist in the form of a village, which is said to ensure the safety of the Chinese in Brazil. Actually, it doesnt matter if we can live together, its just that we have to walk a certain distance to work in the field, which is not very convenient. Of course, this is insignificant compared with security. When the news reached the ears of the immigrants who were still hesitating whether to take a loan to buy land, or the immigrants who were planning to work in factories as workers. Everyone fell into madness. Everyone''s land plot is engraved in their genes. The enthusiasm for buying land with a loan broke out at this moment, including the people rescued by Fang Lang from Brazil. Fang Lang didn''t stop him from doing this, after all, the factory here hasn''t been established yet. When job opportunities appear in cities, farmers will naturally put down their land and move from the countryside to the cities. Fang Lang simply divided these people into eight small villages and resettled them on the land of the original Yakubu family. The fields are full of crops, and there is no need to plant them, so we organize everyone to build a house together. The land of the house continues to be loaned to the immigration company just like the money to build the house. Now everyone is no longer worried about getting a loan from an immigration company, after all, everyone knows that they can afford it. Of course, there are also many people who are unwilling to continue to borrow money from immigration companies, and want to live in the dormitory on the farm first, and then buy homesteads and build houses after earning money. This is the traditional concept of most people. It is understandable to spend money if you want to have money. All the immigrants plus the rescued laborers are less than 5,000 people, and the 5,800 hectares of land is 87,000 mu. Even if the per capita arable land area is 10 mu, there is still a lot of land left. people buy. Compared to the three acres of arable land per capita when the country was founded in my hometown, ten acres per capita is indeed a lot, but compared with the current per capita arable land area in Brazil, it is also a normal level. Of course, the agricultural development areas Fang Lang arranged for his compatriots are mainly concentrated in the state of Rio Grande do Sul in southern Brazil. The land in the south is flatter and the arable land resources are more abundant. As for the Rio Grande do Norte state where Natal is located, only Natal is still a bit flat, with an average altitude of only three meters. If you go west less than 50 kilometers, it will become plateaus and mountains. There is insufficient space for agricultural development. Of course, the plateau and mountains are also the main cotton and corn producing areas in the state. However, when Fang Lang grabs the site, he also grabs a good place first! Even if the south is over, there is still the "savanna" in the central and western regions, which accounts for 21% of Brazil''s land area. Such a large territory has not yet been occupied, and he will not start in the agriculturally underdeveloped northeastern region A large number of agricultural development. The reason why these immigrants are resettled in Natal is also to increase the proportion of Chinese population in Natal. Natal is mainly Fang Lang''s military base. In addition, the focus will be on the development of labor-intensive industries in Natal, which will be used to accommodate the families of officers and soldiers of the First Fleet. It''s not enough to just pay the soldiers allowances. At that time, the soldiers'' families will all work in Fang Lang''s factory, and they will also receive Fang Lang''s salary. Then Fang Lang''s First Fleet will completely become Fang Lang''s private army, a warlord who is not a warlord. Fang Lang spent a week arranging and familiarizing himself with the work of the First Fleet. After all, there are many new recruits, and Fang Lang also needs to get acquainted with everyone. A lot of things happened this week. The bank has officially started construction. During the construction of the bank, the staff of the bank have also been in place, and they have rented an office building in Natal. All the immigration, land and housing loan business of the immigration company were handed over to the newly established Brazilian Development Bank. At the same time, the construction of the first textile factory, sugar factory, and tannery in Natal also started. Fang Lang also announced to all the officers and soldiers of the First Fleet that the families of the officers and soldiers of the First Fleet will have priority to work in the factory . Building a factory requires a lot of labor, which creates a lot of jobs for the residents of Natal, which makes the residents of Natal very happy. With the arrival of the entire First Fleet, the officers and soldiers now belong to the high-income group, and nearby residents have also started doing business near the barracks. For the safety of the barracks, Fang Lang planned to build the first dedicated commercial street in Natal after communicating with Mr. Mayor Dursley. Because the gang in Natal was eradicated by Fang Lang, causing the overt and secret J courts to be closed, and the girls could only go to the streets to solicit customers and become wanderers. The appearance of these wandering warblers also caused Fang Lang a great headache. The business of unknown female attributes in Brazil is neither completely legal nor completely illegal. For the sake of the soldiers'' health, Fang Lang had no choice but to order the city government to centrally manage all the wandering warblers, issue licenses, check their bodies regularly, and distribute free family planning supplies. Maybe it was because this was where the U.S. military used to be stationed. After the news spread that the city government had issued licenses to Liu Ying, a large number of girls jumped out of nowhere and came to register. The number of people who registered in a week turned out to be thousands, which frightened Fang Lang a lot, don''t wait until it becomes an uncivilized city, he called to stop again and again. The final number of registered people still reached 1,500. There is no way that so many people need to make a living on this. Fang Lang can only ask the city government to plan a bar entertainment street. In order to prevent illegal incidents, this street has become a key area for the police. Finally finished dealing with the affairs of the First Fleet, Fang Lang finally flew to Rio de Janeiro with a guard platoon on his own special plane. At the airport, Colonel Tiche and Major Blackwell from the Rio de Janeiro Naval Base were greeted. After the meeting, a few people exchanged pleasantries, and Fang Lang was taken to the naval base in Rio de Janeiro. "Hey! Fang, how come you have time to leave your First Fleet and come to visit us in Rio!" "Everyone hasn''t seen each other for so long, don''t you welcome me?" The relationship between Fang Lang and the two is very good now, so communication is also easy and casual. Colonel Teach saw Fang Lang''s expression of coming to see you on a special trip, and directly pierced: "Didn''t your kid come to see us on business? Cut!" "Haha. Everyone is so busy, of course I came to visit you during the work break!" Fang Lang wouldn''t feel embarrassed about such a trivial matter! "What is the main reason for your visit this time! Can you tell me about it?" Blackwell couldn''t help asking. "It''s nothing serious. I just came to see General Letta of the General Logistics Department about the equipment for the Army''s establishment of tank divisions." Tichi heard Fang Lang talking about such an important matter in such a relaxed tone, and said repeatedly: "Look at Fang, this casual tone, that''s Brazil''s first tank division, it''s no big deal to you kid?" Fang Lang glanced at Colonel Tiqi strangely and said: "Hey! Brother Tiqi, do you know about this?" "What''s so strange about this, now the army is arguing over who will be the first to be converted into a tank division. Is this a secret thing?" Colonel Teach took it for granted. Fang Lang glanced at Blackwell again, obviously knowing and said: "Two brothers! In the future, don''t forget to inform me about this kind of information! Although the brother''s station is far away, but the brother''s heart is very close! I also want to know something important about the army!" Fang Lang didn''t know the news very late, because it was a week ago that General Leta of the Logistics Department asked him to find a supplier quotation. However, apart from getting the news from General Leta, Fang Lang has never heard of the news from other sources. Obviously, his promotion was too fast, he lacked the experience in the grassroots of the army, and he didn''t have the corresponding contacts. Moreover, the current station was also the heart of the country. Indeed, there is a lot of news that he cannot learn. It seems that in the future, he will have to arrange someone to collect this information, otherwise he will miss any good business. When the two heard Fang Lang''s words, Blackwell said strangely: "Don''t you know? It''s not right! I don''t know why you came here? No, it''s the army''s business! You navy came here to join in the fun! It''s not right either, it''s General Leta you want to see. What on earth are you guys doing here? " Hearing Blackwell talking to himself, Colonel Teach also reacted. "That''s right! Why did you come here for this matter! No, what he just said was for the equipment. It can''t be that you have a way to get the equipment!" Brazil''s military equipment is generally requested by the Ministry of Defense or the army, and then the General Logistics Department is responsible for procurement. Because there is no military factory in Brazil, there is no equipment department yet, so it cannot manufacture by itself. Obviously, military generals will not be responsible for the procurement of equipment, and everyone would not have thought that Fang Lang would have a way to obtain arms, so they didn''t think about it. "Hey, there is such a small relationship! Why, does Brother Tiqi also want to purchase two warships for fun?" Fang Lang smiled and said. "You boy is really supernatural! My warships are all old WW1 antiques, of course I want it! But this is not something I can decide!" Colonel Teach shook his head with a wry smile. Fang Lang is also very aware of the current status of the Brazilian Navy, but this is not something he can change. But this does not prevent him from giving Colonel Teach some information. If Colonel Teach can persuade the Admiralty to replace the warship, isn''t this a business? "If you really want to change, you can go to the Ministry of the Navy! Let me tell you this! My channel can now get you the active warships of the US military, but they are second-hand. Destroyers, submarines, and cruisers can all have them. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 144: Visit the Minister of Logistics Chapter 144 Visiting the Minister of Logistics Fang Lang spared no effort for his business, and he never forgot to publicize his good friend Colonel Teach. Seeing what Fang Lang raised his eyebrows and said to him, Colonel Tiqi was immediately moved. How many soldiers dont want to have a new type of warship in their hands? "Do you really have access to the latest American products?" "Of course, if I can''t get it. What are you doing to find General Letta? Let me tell you this! The Americans are now disarming, so a lot of active equipment has to be retired. And I have access to these guys who just retired. " This can be regarded as different from the past. When the fierce battle was in full swing, the Americans were of course unwilling to sell the equipment they urgently needed to their younger brothers. However, now that the U.S. military needs a large-scale disarmament, it is of course impossible to throw so much equipment in your hands! If Fang Lang doesn''t give Major Mike such an idea. Americans will soon start selling their equipment all over the world. Now Fang Lang is just advancing the time. Fang Lang''s words completely ignited the fire in Colonel Teach''s heart. He stood up and paced back and forth in the office, obviously thinking about the feasibility of the matter. Second Lieutenant Blackwell next to ?? said: "Fang, are all the equipment you can get American-style equipment? Why did I hear people from the Army say that they want to buy Soviet T34s!" Now it was Fang Lang''s turn to be surprised. "What the hell, the Army wants the Soviet T34?" Hearing this, Fang Lang realized that the cold war has not officially started yet! The major powers are redistributing the interests of the world, and the United Nations is still wrangling. Although the signs of the Cold War have begun to appear, after all, it has not yet officially started, and the small countries now do not need to consider the issue of standing in line. And the T34 tanks of the Soviet Army did perform very well in the European War. It is no wonder that the Brazilian Army has ideas. Maybe some people also have ideas about the advanced German tanks! It''s a pity that the Germans are dead, and if you want to buy them, you can only accept the junk ones without after-sales service. The main tank of the Americans in World War II was the Sherman tank. Unfortunately, the strength shown on the battlefield did not even rank in the top five. In order to cope with the German King Tiger tank, the United States developed an excellent Pershing tank. Unfortunately, it has not passed the test of the war, so the current reputation is not as loud as the Soviet T34. Unfortunately, the number of Pershing tanks is not large. The U.S. military must give priority to retiring Shermans. It is estimated that there is not much hope of purchasing Pershing tanks for the Brazilian Army. Thinking of this, Fang Lang couldn''t help feeling a little discouraged. He couldn''t get the Soviet army equipment now. "I''ve also heard the news. The T34 is indeed an excellent tank that has been tested in actual combat, but it may be difficult for us to purchase it!" Colonel Teach''s words rekindled hope in Fang Lang''s heart that had just sunk to the bottom, and said quickly: "Oh! Why do you say that?" "Because we are almost equipped with American equipment now! If we add a piece of Soviet-style equipment, it will increase the difficulty of logistical support. I heard that some people at the top do not want to cause dissatisfaction in the United States because of this matter." Fang Lang understood after saying this, so what else is there to say, I hope this will come soon? "I see, thank you two brothers for reminding me, this business has become a small gift to express my gratitude!" "Fang, what''s the use of a small gift? Bring a destroyer!" Colonel Tiqi put his arms around Fang Lang''s shoulders and joked. "I would like to give you one, but unfortunately, I dare not!" Of course, it is impossible for Fang Lang to purchase military equipment privately and donate it to the Rio base. Even if it is a gift, it can only be given to the Ministry of the Navy for distribution. His identity is also in the same navy. If he directly specifies who to send the equipment to, it will cause unnecessary trouble. Everyone knows this, so it can only be a joke. After joking around for a while, several people had lunch together, which was considered a simple gathering. In the afternoon, Fang Lang rang General Leta''s office. Because he had an appointment, he met General Leta without hindrance. As the head of the General Logistics Department, General Letta also has the rank of major general. Sitting behind a large desk, he looks a little short. Xiaoyuan''s face is full of smiles, which is completely different from the indifferent attitude on the phone. Fang Lang also stood at attention and saluted with a smile on his face. "Colonel Fang, sit down, sit down, if you don''t come, I will go to Natal to find you!" Seeing General Leta, who stood up from behind the desk and was only as tall as his chin, extended his hand enthusiastically, Fang Lang hurried forward to hold it. And under his guidance, he made it to the next reception area. The sofa in the reception area looks a bit old. Although the entire office is large, it doesn''t feel luxurious at all. On the contrary, it makes people feel that this office is not worthy of the status of Mr. Minister in front of him. If ordinary people see such an environment, they must think that Mr. Minister in front of him is a clean and honest official. It''s a pity that Fang Lang has seen someone who eats bran swallowed vegetables every day and is actually very corrupt to officials. And, judging from General Leta''s attitude on the phone, if Leta is really an upright official, he will be damned. The more officials who advertise themselves as clean and honest, the more greedy they are sometimes. Unfortunately, the intelligence bureau did not dare to investigate the senior generals of their own army, so that Fang Lang did not have accurate information about the person in front of him. General Leta''s performance made Fang Lang deal with it more carefully, and quietly put away the souvenirs he had prepared. Since others have shown a clean and honest image to the outside world, they obviously won''t collect benefits from you in the office. "Mr. Minister, I am really sorry. The fleet has just returned from Japan and there are many things to be arranged. So I didn''t come to visit you until today! Please forgive me!" "Haha. Understood! Understood! It seems that Colonel Fang has brought me good news this time, right?" Unexpectedly, General Leta directly cut into the topic. I feel that although he treats himself very enthusiastically on the surface, he has a business-like attitude that rejects others thousands of miles away in his heart! But after all, it was the first time we met. My previous behavior of purchasing the plane without permission obviously aroused the disgust of others, and Fang Lang couldn''t say anything, but I feel that this time I can only go through the motions. "What Mr. Minister said is that my friends in the United States told me that they will participate in this bidding. I hope that Mr. Minister can give them a place." "Oh! This is really good news. Please tell me the name of their company. I will ask the secretary to add their company name to the list of bidding companies." "Shata Trading is a newly registered American company. They are now responsible for handling all decommissioned equipment of the US military. They have all equipment from the three armed forces, and are the designated seller of decommissioned equipment from the US military." This Shata Trade is naturally a new company formed by Global Trade and Major Mike. As for the company''s boss, Wan Chongxin hired a retired American lieutenant general Jefferson according to Mike''s guidance. Fang Lang didn''t know how much benefit exchange there was in the process. The only thing he knew was that his wish to hold the company had not been fulfilled. Although Global Trading is still the largest shareholder of Shata Trading, he only has 25% of the company''s shares, and he didn''t ask specifically who the other shareholders are. After the establishment of this company, it was directly authorized by the U.S. Department of Defense and became the designated seller of decommissioned equipment of the U.S. military. Fang Lang felt that it was worth the money for this authorization alone. "Did you just say the designated seller?" Fang Lang''s words obviously took General Leta by surprise. He didn''t expect this company to have such a big background. He thought Fang Lang had mastered a small arms smuggling channel. He could make whatever he wanted, but it turned out to be a great white shark, which made him feel a little tricky. "certainly!" Fang Lang affirmed again. General Letta''s attitude has obviously changed. He knows that the young man in front of him has many contacts in the US military. However, I didn''t expect such a relationship. In the situation he said, if you want to buy American equipment in the future, you may have to go through this company. "Colonel Fang, our bidding conference is expected to be held in a month. I hope you can come forward and invite personnel from Shata Company to participate." "No problem, the matter told by General Letta must be arranged immediately. In order to thank General Letta for supporting my First Fleet, I would like to invite you to have dinner at Olim Restaurant in Rio tonight. I don''t know if you can appreciate it. " No matter what General Leta thinks of Fang Lang, Fang Lang must be good to the logistics minister for the future logistics supplies of his fleet. I cant feel that Im the second child just because I put a little effort into the position of General Dutra. Maybe this General Leta, if he stumbles on the logistics supplies of his First Fleet, it will be enough for him to drink a pot. General Letta, who was able to sit in the high position of the Chief of General Logistics, of course had to give face to Fang Lang, the powerful general of the navy. So, I readily agreed: "No problem, I will be on time for the appointment." Because General Leta is very busy with work, the next person who is going to meet General Leta is already waiting outside the door. So Fang Lang didn''t talk much, but got up and said goodbye. General Leta got up in person and sent Fang Lang to the door of the office, and ordered the secretary at the door to send Colonel Fang to the car in person. The secretary is a slightly obese middle-aged woman, who has no military image at all. Seeing the middle-aged woman in a general uniform dressed like a Michelin tire man, Fang Lang nodded politely. When walking out of the office building with the secretary, Fang Lang casually chatted with the secretary and said: "Hello Miss Secretary, may I ask you something?" The secretary looked at the young Chinese colonel in front of him vigilantly and said: "Mr. Colonel, I don''t know much, so I may not be able to answer you!" Fang Lang smiled politely and said: "Miss Secretary, don''t get me wrong. I have an appointment to have dinner with Minister Leta tonight, and I may see Mrs. Leta at that time. I want to give Mrs. Leta a small meeting gift. Do you know what hobbies Mrs. Leta has? " When the secretary heard that it was such a trivial matter, he said without hesitation: "Mrs. Leta is a painter. I don''t know exactly what hobbies she has. I''m really sorry." Hearing this, Fang Lang''s heart moved and said: "Oh! Mrs. Leta turned out to be a painter. This is really surprising. Where can I appreciate Mrs. Leta''s works?" "I really don''t know about this, but I heard that Mrs. Leta had an art exhibition at the Redwood Gallery on White River Street a week ago, maybe there will be one there." (end of this chapter) Chapter 145: buy paintings Chapter 145 Buying Paintings After receiving Mrs. Leta''s information from the secretary, Fang Lang changed into plain clothes and went directly to the Redwood Gallery on Baihe Avenue in Rio de Janeiro. I wandered around the gallery for a while like a tourist, and found that most of the paintings in this gallery are mainly oil paintings. As for the quality of the paintings, Fang Lang can only distinguish between those that can be understood and those that cannot. As a gallery, it is actually a place to sell paintings, and of course someone will come out to receive them. It''s just that the people who receive them are very polite and wait for the guests to appreciate and choose, and only when they signal them to come forward, they will go forward to introduce the situation. After Fang Lang turned around, he lost interest, and directly called the owner of the gallery and said: "Sir, I heard that there was an art exhibition for women here a week ago, right?" The owner of the gallery is a middle-aged man with an artistic temperament. His long chestnut hair is tied behind his head, and he wears a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, which looks very elegant. replied with a look of surprise: "Yes, sir. Do you want to buy Ms. Nessia''s painting?" "Oh! So that lady''s name is Naisia! I wonder if the painting here is the work of Ms. Naisia?" The gallery does not hold art exhibitions every day, there are already many art exhibitions every month. In addition to being a female painter, it is almost certain that the female painter who held an exhibition a week ago is Mrs. Leta. After hearing Fang Lang''s question, the owner of the gallery said with a strange expression: "I''m very sorry, that art exhibition was only funded by Ms. Nessia herself, and she borrowed the venue of our gallery to hold a private exhibition for a week. Unfortunately, the result was not very satisfactory, and no one paid for Ms. Nessia''s paintings. Therefore, I do not collect Ms. Nessia''s paintings here. " Hearing this, Fang Lang smiled. I already have a rough judgment on the level of Mrs. Leta''s paintings. The owner of the gallery is obviously quite reserved when speaking. If it werent for Mrs. Letas high venue fee, he would not be willing to let her come here to hold an art exhibition! "Then I don''t know that I want to buy this Ms. Nessia''s painting, can you contact me for help?" "Of course it''s all right, but sir, are you serious?" The gallery owner with an expression of disbelief was a little taken aback. Seeing Fang Lang nodded affirmatively, the boss no longer hesitated, said sorry, and went to the office to call. At this time, in a luxurious villa in a rich area of ??Rio de Janeiro, a lady with a graceful figure who looks about 30 years old is looking at the paintings in the warehouse with a depressed expression. This woman is Ms. Nacia, the wife of General Leta. She is the second wife of General Leta. When General Leta met her, she was just a student because she was very beautiful. While working at a reception, he accidentally spilled wine on General Leta''s clothes, and met General Leta. Because of being young and beautiful, he quickly captured General Leta, and finally defeated the original partner and succeeded in taking the position. General Leta wanted her to be a vase at home like his ex-wife. But Ms. Nessia is obviously unwilling to follow the old path of her ex-wife. Therefore, in order to keep her at home, General Leta, in order to let her stay at home with peace of mind, once saw her painting at home, praised her for a while, and suggested that she could become a painter in the future. As a result, Ms. Nessia believed it was true and concentrated on becoming a professional painter at home, and even pestered her husband to hold a professional painting exhibition for herself. It''s a pity that her works, except for her husband, have not been recognized by others. Naisia, who finished the exhibition, was very disappointed, and very suspicious that General Leta had deceived him. Therefore, I haven''t given General Leta a good look recently. Just as Nessia was feeling depressed, the gallery suddenly called, saying that a buyer wanted to buy one of her painting collections. It just made her ecstatic. Shared the good news with her husband immediately. General Leta''s first reaction when he heard the good news was that he couldn''t believe it. How could there be such a thing, that blind collector would take a fancy to his wife''s paintings. Of course, he couldn''t answer his wife like this, but he happily expressed his blessings to his wife, and arranged for his orderly to go home to help her carry the paintings. When Fang Lang followed the owner of the gallery to Ms. Nessia''s house, he saw this lady who was 175 tall and had a charming figure, who was smiling like a flower at the moment, accompanied by orderlies, waiting for the arrival of distinguished guests outside the door. Mrs. ?? felt very strange when she saw an Asian face coming to buy his paintings. After greeting each other, several people asked directly: "Is this Mr. Fang of Japanese descent?" After hearing Mrs. Leta''s words, Fang Lang was almost so angry that he cursed in his heart: Your mother is Japanese, and your whole family is Japanese. But thinking of the purpose of his trip, he suppressed his anger and said: "Excuse me ma''am, I''m Chinese. Why do you ask me that?" After hearing Fang Lang''s answer, Mrs. Leta patted her chest twice with her hand and said: "It''s fine if you''re not Japanese, I don''t want to sell my work to those Japanese bastards." Fang Lang''s mood instantly improved as soon as this sentence was said. It seems that General Leta''s education of his wife is still very successful! It is not in vain that I am ready to spend a lot of money to buy his works. "Madam, I have to say that our heroes have the same views on this point, and now I look forward to seeing Madam''s masterpiece even more." After Mrs. Leta heard this, her laughter trembled wildly, which almost made the men unable to hold back. Fang Lang couldn''t help but sigh in his heart that General Leta is so blessed! I don''t know if this sister Nishia has any sisters who are similar to him? Fang Lang expressed his desire to establish a deep friendship with her. It''s a pity that it''s not easy for outsiders to ask Mrs. Leta in Fang Lang. Several people, led by Mrs. Leta and the orderly, quickly came to the warehouse where the paintings were stored. As the orderlies displayed the paintings one by one, Fang Lang finally understood why the gallery owner was unwilling to sell Ms. Nasia''s works. This is completely a child''s graffiti! And it is at the level of kindergarten children. But fortunately, Fang Lang didn''t come here to buy these paintings because he admired them. Resisting the urge to cover his face, Fang Lang pointed to a painting that should be the sun with excitement and said: "My God! This is the artwork I''m looking for. Look how romantic the use of color is. This colorful sun is as charming as a girl''s dream. Looking at the colorful light reminds me of the seaside in the early morning. I sat on the beach with my first love and admired the newborn sun. Everything was so beautiful. Madam, I want this painting. How much is your quotation? " Fang Lang''s nonsense made Ms. Nessia a little confused, and she kept recalling when she drew such a picture of the sun. It seems that she only drew a few poached eggs? Did I remember wrongly. But today I finally met my bosom friend, isn''t it just my dream to have a girl? Sitting on the beach with your first love and admiring the newborn sun, they must have had a romantic night! It''s a pity why I haven''t had such an experience! I''m really envious. Hearing Fang Lang ask the price, the gallery owner on the side finally spoke: "Mr. Fang, you are really a very discerning collector. The works of Ms. Nessia are worth five hundred dollars a pair according to our gallery''s estimate." The owner of the gallery blushed a little when he said the price. Fang Lang knew that if he found a painter to buy paintings through a gallery, the gallery would definitely have to share part of the profits, but in the current situation, it was impossible for Fang Lang to kick the gallery away and deal with Mrs. Leta alone. "What? How can Ms. Nessia''s work be sold so cheaply! This is an insult to art. No, this work is worth at least $10,000. Not fifteen thousand dollars. Ms. Nessia, I dont know if this price can make you give up! " The three of them stared dumbfounded at the big guy in front of them. Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Naisia ??felt that she was just dreaming. Could it be that she was really a talented artist? The owner of the gallery now has some doubts whether he is outdated and has not discovered the essence of Ms. Nessia''s works. General Leta''s orderly is buzzing, just this kid''s graffiti, worth fifteen thousand dollars? The maps I drew when I **** on the ground are prettier than this one! Is it a businessman? The gallery owner was the first to respond: "Mr. Fang is right. We are too superficial to see the artistry of Ms. Nessia''s work. It is very appropriate for this work to be priced at 15,000 U.S. dollars, right? Ms. Nessia." Hearing the gallery owner''s question, Mrs. Leta, who had been a little dizzy, finally came to her senses and said: "Ah! I don''t know much about this price. Since Mr. Fang really likes it, let''s sell this work to Mr. Fang!" "Ms. Nessia, thank you for your generosity. It is my honor to collect your works. I don''t know how to pay for it, it will be more convenient!" In this way, with the help of the gallery owner, Fang Lang successfully sold an oil painting from Mrs. Leta for 15,000 US dollars, whether it was the sun or a poached egg. Mrs. Leta, who sent away Fang Lang and the gallery owner, didn''t wake up from this dreamy scene for a long time. Her first reaction was to share her joy with her husband. "Dear, do you know? I finally sold my first painting. I am so happy, thank you, dear, it is because of your encouragement that I can achieve what I am today!" General Leta, who was working in the office, picked up the microphone and laughed as he heard his wife''s cheers. It seemed that he could have a good night tonight. Picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip: "Really? Congratulations honey, I didn''t lie to you! I''ve always said your work is amazing. Trust me you will be successful. I dont know how much Madams work sold this time? " "Fifteen thousand dollars, honey, can you believe it? Fifteen thousand dollars." General Leta couldn''t hold back the coffee he drank just now, and spit it out in one gulp. He is not a stunned young man who is ignorant of the world. He knows exactly how his wife''s works are. How could someone pay such a high price for a random graffiti. After wiping the coffee off his mouth, General Leta managed to calm down and said: "Oh! Honey, you are really amazing. Can you tell me who this collector is?" (end of this chapter) Chapter 146: European and American inspection Chapter 146 Study in Europe and America Hearing her husband''s praise on the phone, Naysia felt that she had become a real artist. "I don''t know the identity of the collector, but he is a Chinese, surnamed Fang." At this time, General Leta didn''t understand what happened, so he couldn''t help showing the original expression. I couldn''t help but admire Fang Lang in my heart. Although I have always accepted the following benefits, I am always worried every time, for fear of being discovered and reported. In order to maintain his clean and honest image, he never dared to take benefits from unfamiliar subordinates, but Fang Lang''s operation this time opened a whole new door for him. "My dear, since your works have been recognized by people, believe me, more and more people will buy your works in the future." "Yes honey! I feel the same way, we''re going to be rich soon! Haha" General Leta also couldn''t help laughing, and couldn''t help thinking, yes! I am about to make a fortune, and I dare not use the benefits I received. And his wife''s income from selling paintings is aboveboard. Even if someone reports it, there is no need to worry about being investigated. That night, the luxurious private room of the most luxurious Olim restaurant in Rio de Janeiro. When Fang Lang saw General Leta in civilian clothes again, he was a completely different person from when he was in the office. Just got up to meet Fang Lang who was about to shake hands with the other party, and just held the other party''s hand, the old man pulled him into his arms and gave him a firm hug. Because, General Leta''s head only reached Fang Lang''s chin, this hug almost didn''t trip Fang Lang. Obviously the other party already knew what happened in the afternoon. Sure enough, I heard General Leta ask straight to the point: "Fang, I heard that you are very good at painting?" Fang Lang pretended to be surprised and said: "Hey! How did General Leta know about my hobby! That''s right, don''t tell me, I found a beautiful female painter in Rio this afternoon. His works are full of romanticism and are rare works of art. " Seeing Fang Lang''s serious nonsense, General Leta almost believed it. If only his brow didn''t twitch on purpose. "Oh! Thank you very much, Colonel Fang, for discovering a new artist for us in Rio. I would like to toast you." "Then I''m not welcome, come! Your Excellency, let''s toast." The two laughed tacitly. Then the two chatted and laughed and exchanged glasses, like old friends who hadn''t met again, bragging about the world. Finally at the end of the dinner, General Leta took the initiative to provoke the topic: "Fang, I heard that General Dutra told me that your family has a cannon production line shipped back from Japan, right?" "Yes, Your Excellency, General! General Dutra wants our family to use this production line to build a military production plant. However, many members of the family are now expressing opposition. " Since General Leta took the initiative to mention the artillery production line, it shows that the military has a clear attitude. At this time, Fang Lang does not want to post it, expressing his willingness to actively intervene. This is easy to be grasped. Obviously Fang Lang''s answer was somewhat unexpected by General Leta. "Oh! Why would anyone express objections? This is a rare opportunity to become a supplier of the Ministry of Defense! With me in the logistics department, you will definitely not suffer." "Because, although we have this equipment, we have no production experience, and the products we produce may not be qualified. Also, we in Brazil don''t have much demand for weapons, so certainly not much profit. Many of the equipment in this batch are also needed by other factories of our group, so many people want to divide up these equipments. " "That won''t work! Fang, if we don''t have the technology, we can go abroad to find it! As for the problem of limited sales, we can export it! These are not problems. Let me tell you the truth! The Ministry of National Defense held a meeting on this matter, and some people also proposed to set up a state-owned arms group directly after purchasing the equipment. However, most people believed that the state-owned arms enterprises might lack market competitiveness and have no aggressiveness, so they voted against it. Now the opinion of the Ministry of National Defense is to fully support your family and rely on this batch of equipment to establish our own military equipment enterprise in Brazil. You can''t shrink back at this time. If you are under too much pressure, I suggest you find a few partners to take risks together! " From General Leta''s words, Fang Lang heard the idea that some people in the big Brazilian family wanted to join. After all, if you become a weapon supplier for the Brazilian military, profit is not the most important thing for everyone, but some intangible influence is more attractive. However, since Fang Lang is going to be produced, he definitely wants to obtain an absolute controlling stake. After thinking about it, Fang Lang said again: "Your Excellency, if such an arms group is all privately controlled, I will take it into consideration. In fact, we have also considered your suggestion of finding a partner. However, if we do not have a controlling stake in this business, our family will definitely choose to give up. Since you can introduce a strong partner to us, then I will express my family''s thoughts and see if it is suitable for you. " "Oh! It turns out that you already have specific ideas. Tell me and I will help you refer." "The family means that it must own 51% of the controlling stake in the military industrial group, and the state must hold at least 20% of the shares, and the remaining 29% can be invested by companies that are interested in participating. What do you think?" "There is no problem in being controlled by your family. As for the matter of state investment, it may not be easy to operate. Because, although the country now relies on providing resources for the war, it has obtained some foreign exchange. However, the Ministry of Finance has made plans for these funds to be invested in the country''s infrastructure. " Of course, what Fang Lang wants is not direct funding from the state. If the funding is from the state, it must be deducted from land and the like. These are meaningless. His purpose is to allow the family to participate in the state-controlled resource industry, so after listening to General Leta''s words, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Your Excellency, I will provide you with an idea. You can use it for reference and see if it is feasible." "Oh! Tell me about it!" "If the newly established military industrial group is swapped with the existing state-owned enterprises, wouldn''t the government need to pay for it again?" After hearing Fang Lang''s words, General Leta immediately understood what Fang Lang meant, and couldn''t help but fell into deep thought. After a while, he raised his head and said: "You tell the truth, boy! Are you interested in the shares of that company?" Fang Lang smiled without any embarrassment and said: "How about Vale?" Vale is the world''s largest iron ore producer and exporter, and the largest mining company in the American continent. It is known as Brazil''s "jewel in the crown" and "the engine of the Amazon region". In addition to operating iron ore, Brazil''s Vale also operates manganese ore, aluminum ore, gold ore and other mineral products, pulp, ports, railways and energy. At this time, Vale has only been established for three years, and it relies on exporting iron ore to the United States for a living. It can only be regarded as a fledgling enterprise. Hearing Fang Lang mention Vale, it took General Leta a while to realize which company he was talking about. Although I don''t quite understand why Fang Lang is interested in this company, in the eyes of soldiers, a military enterprise must be more valuable than a mining company. General Leta nodded and said: "Tomorrow I will report your thoughts. The Ministry of National Defense is very concerned about this matter. Now is the period of military control, and the waiting time will not be long. I suggest you start preparing now. " "If we really want to enter the military industry, it is impossible for us to only produce artillery. If it is really necessary, I need to go to Europe and the United States to find technical support." Things went very smoothly, and Fang Lang received a notification from General Leta the next night. The Ministry of National Defense agreed to Fang Lang''s factory construction plan, and urged Fang Lang to hurry up and start the construction of the factory. Fang Lang, who received the news, took the plane directly back to Natal that night, and formed the staff of the Brazilian Navy''s First Fleet the next day, appointing de la Torre as the chief of staff. Responsible for the management of the First Fleet during Fang Lang''s inspection trip to Europe and America. At the beginning of December 1945, Fang Lang, accompanied by the newly formed Fangyuan Group''s nine-person assistant group, and under the protection of the guard platoon soldiers in civilian clothes, flew to New York on a special plane to start a European and American inspection tour. trip. The investigation reported to the Ministry of National Defense this time was mainly for the purpose of visiting and investigating the military industries of European and American countries, and looking for technical support for Brazil''s own military factories. Of course, it is normal operation to do some private work for the family business on the way, and no one will have any opinions. After a half-day flight, Fang Lang and his party of 46 people arrived at New York Airport in the United States smoothly. This time when Fang Lang arrived in New York, the team that came to pick up the plane was also very large. After all, Fang Lang''s Universal Group in the United States is now a well-established large company. The bosses of each branch company need to get acquainted in front of the big boss. The result of this is that when Fang Lang and others walked out of the airport, the team was very large. It caused passers-by to look sideways. December is midsummer in Natal, Brazil, but it is snowing heavily in New York. Fang Lang took an early rest after attending the welcome dinner prepared by Wan Chongxin that night. After all, the current aviation technology cannot be compared with that of later generations, Fang Lang dare not sleep on the C46. Early the next morning, Fang Lang was woken up by a graceful blonde. Looking at this beauty who could come in and out of her hotel room at will and looked like Nicole Kidman, Fang Lang was still a little dazed. What''s the situation, did I spend a good night with this girl last night? But why didn''t I feel it at all? What embarrassed Fang Lang the most was that he didn''t know the name of the girl in front of him at all. Would it be too scumbag to forget someone else''s name just after spending a good night with someone else. But I really have no impression at all! The beauty obviously noticed Fang Lang''s embarrassment, she got up with a smile, picked up a nightgown from the stool beside the bed, and handed it to Fang Lang, saying: "Hi, boss! I am the assistant to the president of Universal Group Corporation. My name is Ophelia Berger, and I will be your personal assistant from now on." (end of this chapter) Chapter 147: personal assistant Chapter 147 Personal Assistant Fang Lang looked at the young and beautiful girl in front of him, and listening to his self-introduction, Fang Lang remembered that among the several assistants Wan Chongxin recommended for him, it seemed that he had indeed chosen this one named Ophelia Berg of. However, the reason why he was chosen at the time was because this girl is a proper female academic master, a graduate student of MBA at Harvard University. At this time, there is no QQ, WeChat, etc. You can send a photo or send a video to have a look. This can be regarded as the top prize for opening the blind box! But such a beautiful girl, are you sure she is an assistant, not Xiaomi? But Fang Lang couldn''t help giving Wan Chongxin a big thumbs up in his heart. Wouldnt it be hard to start with an assistant? After all, she still needs to arrange a lot of things at work. If she is taken into the room, many things will be inconvenient! Listen to other people''s self-introduction, personal assistant, what is a personal assistant! If you don''t stick it on your body, you can''t be called a qualified personal assistant, right! Um! I should give this girl a chance to work hard. Fang Lang, who was determined to pay attention, wanted to get up and get out of bed. He lifted the quilt and looked at himself, only wearing a small inner body, said with a little hesitation: "Your name is Ophelia Berger, isn''t it! Last night?" Looking at Fang Lang''s expression, how could Berg not understand Fang Lang''s meaning, his face flushed slightly, but he quickly disappeared and said: "Don''t worry, boss, I just came here this morning! My job is to assist you in handling the corporate affairs of the group company, and it does not include sleeping with you. If you need someone to accompany you, I can arrange it for you. " Hearing Berg''s words, Fang Lang''s head was full of black lines. Could this assistant be a little too tough? This kind of tiger and wolf talk comes out of nowhere, boss, don''t I want to lose face? But, can it really be arranged? As the boss, you can''t show your timidity. Assistants can face this kind of thing calmly, why can''t I face it? "Ah! I don''t need this right now. I''ll ask you to arrange it when I need it. But can you arrange it at your level?" Now Berg finally blushed, but he soon regained his composure, and his face became a little ugly. Fang Lang noticed Berg''s face, and also noticed that he had said something wrong. How could he compare his assistant with those women who could come out to accompany him? Hastily remedied: "I mean, with a beautiful assistant like you around, it makes it difficult for me to be interested in other women!" Berg''s face softened a little when he heard Fang Lang''s remedy. He was prepared just now. If the man in front of him had any misdeeds, she would just give up this high-paying job, resign and leave. Although I was very happy to hear him praise my beauty, but since the other party is my boss, I have to let him give up his illusions about him. So, directly opened the mouth and said: "Thank you for your compliment, but I already have a boyfriend! So, I hope the boss can show me some respect." Such a beautiful woman will hang around her every day, and even tell herself that she has a boyfriend. Are you sure that your boyfriend will feel relieved in such a job? Thinking about her boyfriend, she uttered a sentence from the Internet in later life. "Then do you mind having one more?" Fang Lang regretted this as soon as he said this, and quickly changed direction: "Then what is our itinerary for today?" Begg obviously heard Fang Lang''s words clearly, but didn''t react for a while. Hearing Fang Lang asking about the itinerary again, he quickly took out a small notepad from the small satchel beside him, Fang Lang said: "This morning, I need to go to Universal Pier in New York. Ah!" Hearing Berg''s "Yeah", Fang Lang thought that something had happened, so he quickly lifted the quilt and stood up and said: "What''s wrong?" But he said that the reason why Berg said "Yeah" was because he understood the meaning of Fang Lang''s words just now. Berg has never experienced this kind of coquettish talk in later generations. Although she had been pretending to be calm, she was also flashed by this sentence, and her face flushed instantly. When he looked up, he found that Fang Lang was already wearing a pair of underwear, standing in front of him, looking at him with concern. The muscles on his body are well-proportioned, obviously he has been exercising regularly. The eight-pack muscles in his abdomen show the beauty of a man, and for a while his eyes are a little out of order. His complexion also became more rosy. Fang Lang saw that Berg was fine, and kept staring at himself, his face flushed. I looked down and saw that I was only wearing this small trouser top. This situation is obviously different from the situation where he was dragged into the bathroom by Della Torre''s wife to take a bath at Della Torre''s house. At that time, he was facing Della Torre''s wife, of course Fang Lang would be embarrassed. But the little girl in front of him is not a family member of his acquaintance. Of course, Fang Lang doesn''t mind if the other party sees his strong muscles. Of course, it would be best if he can conquer the little girl in front of him with his figure. But after all, he didn''t have exhibitionism, so after seeing that Berg had nothing to do, he calmly picked up the nightgown that Berg put on the bed just now and put it on. Seeing Fang Lang put on his nightgown, Berg realized: "No, nothing! You need to go to the Global Terminal to check the operation of the container system this morning, and listen to the work reports of each branch in the group company in the afternoon." "Alright then! Have you had breakfast? Let''s have breakfast together after I wash up!" "Okay, Boss!" Thinking in my heart, it seems that my little boss doesn''t seem to be difficult to get along with! Yes, it is the little boss. As a graduate student of MBA at Harvard University, Berg is 24 years old this year. According to her understanding, the boss in front of her seems to be only 21 years old. Of course I can call him Little Boss. Just as Berg was thinking about the mess in his mind, Fang Lang had finished packing and walked out of the bathroom. Looking at Fang Lang who was wearing a custom-made suit in front of him and was putting a woolen coat on himself. Berg suddenly felt that perhaps it would be a good thing to work beside such a handsome boss. Fang Lang noticed Berg staring at him, smiled and said nothing. There is nothing wrong with teasing this beautiful little girl, but as a boss with a lot of troops and strong assets, he knows that he will never lack women, so he will not be so impatient. Although Fang Lang is very satisfied that his assistant is such a beautiful little girl, there is one thing that makes him very dissatisfied. That was his guard platoon. It was an unforgivable mistake to let a strange woman into his room easily. However, fortunately, Fang Lang didn''t feel hostility from Miss Berg, which is why Fang Lang didn''t take action against Miss Berg. Opening the door, Fang Lang was even more angry when he saw that there were no soldiers standing guard outside the door. He was now in Free America, where shootings were fired every day, and his guard platoon soldiers didn''t even send the most basic guards. Do they think the United States will be very safe? "Qi Qingshan?" Fang Lang stood outside the door and yelled loudly. This floor of the hotel has basically been booked by them, so Fang Lang is not worried about disturbing others. Soon there was a reply of "Here!" from the opposite room. Qi Qingshan opened the door and walked out. Seeing the neatly dressed Fang Lang with a dark face, he was a little at a loss for a while. He actually got up later than the chief. It really shouldn''t be! "Send a telegram to Brazil to transfer a platoon of Zhuang Xintian''s Marine Corps to the United States to take charge of security work. The current security platoon will be transferred back to Brazil for retraining. Playing the piano indiscriminately, can I release Nanshan when I arrive in the United States? None of the guards. In the morning, I asked someone else''s little girl to go directly to my room to wake me up. What if its not a little girl but a killer? The guard platoon leader pulled him off and asked him to be a soldier. " Fang Lang spoke Chinese, so only Qi Qingshan could understand it. However, Qi Qingshan''s face turned pale at this time, which was a very serious problem. Moreover, he himself is responsible for this situation, because as Fang Lang''s adjutant, he is responsible for following up on these things. Hearing that Fang Lang was woken up by a strange little girl, Qi Qingshan suddenly felt a chill behind him, and broke out in a cold sweat. hurriedly said: "Yes, boss! I''m sorry, I was also at fault in this matter, and I am willing to accept punishment." Of course Fang Lang knew that Qi Qingshan was also at fault, so he said coldly: "After going back, I will receive a week of confinement and write a self-criticism." Qi Qingshan''s face turned bitter and he quickly stood upright and said: "Yes, sir!" Fortunately, the conversation between the two was incomprehensible to others, and they didn''t see anything unusual, but everyone could see that Fang Lang''s face was ugly, and Qi Qingshan''s face on the opposite side was even paler. This is not to say that Fang Lang is a moody pervert. He was still teasing other little girls in there just now, and immediately got angry because the little girl appeared directly in his room. Because other people''s little girls are good-looking, they don''t go to trouble other people''s little girls, but embarrass their own soldiers. The soldiers under him did not fulfill their duties and neglected their duties. This is unforgivable no matter which country''s army it is in. You won''t be exempted from punishment just because you haven''t been harmed. I didnt get hurt this time, will I be so lucky next time? How could the Japanese not know what I did in Japan? Send a killer to kill him later, won''t he die unjustly? The guard platoon soldiers who walked out of the room did not understand what happened. It was indeed a rare experience for them to follow the commander to Europe and the United States. So, everyone has let down their vigilance. Qi Qingshan said with a dark face at this time: "What are you looking at? Are you here to travel? You let a little girl directly touch the boss''s room and wake him up. Is this your fighting power? Fortunately, this girl is the assistant of the boss''s company. If she is a killer, you just wait to be shot! " The guard platoon leader was a white man of Portuguese descent. He also turned pale when he heard Qi Qingshan''s words, knowing that he had caused a catastrophe. Although my chief is a very easy-going person, but when it comes to killing people, he is not merciless. quickly came out and said: "I''m sorry, sir. I didn''t do my duty. I am willing to accept any punishment." "What are you still doing standing here? Where is the person protecting the chief?" (end of this chapter) Chapter 148: sneak in Chapter 148 Taking a break from busy schedule The soldiers of the guard platoon acted quickly, and began to go to the hotel restaurant to protect Fang Lang''s safety according to the schedule. Looking at the defense methods of these guards, Fang Lang could only shake his head. When he was in Brazil before, he thought it was okay to be surrounded by a group of guards and soldiers, which was very cool. However, now looking at the soldiers standing in the restaurant and looking around, Fang Lang thinks this is obviously telling others that there are big shots here! Miss Berg appeared directly in his room today, so he suddenly said that his guard is completely a fake. But it is also possible that Brazil is Fang Lang''s home court, and Fang Lang does not lack a sense of security. And I watch too many American movies, so I feel insecure about the United States! It seems that the security forces around him must be professionally trained, and the temporary recruitment of Zhuang Xintian can only be a temporary response. There is no way to solve the fundamental problem, because the nature of the work of the guards is completely different from that of the Marine Corps. Beg could feel Fang Lang''s emotions from the moment he left the room. I don''t know if it has something to do with him, but it also made him see another side of the boss. The atmosphere was somewhat depressing, making Berg afraid to speak out. After breakfast, Fang Lang, accompanied by Berg, arrived at the container terminal of Universal Group. At this time, the bosses of several branches of Universal Group were all waiting on the terminal. There was no welcoming ceremony or leader''s speech. Following Fang Lang''s order, several trucks dragged large containers to the hoisting equipment. Looking at each container being hoisted to the container ship by the hoisting equipment, the staff on the ship fastened the containers with special tools. Fang Lang showed a satisfied smile. Although the entire system is not as advanced as later generations, it is enough to completely change the future of the shipping industry in this era. As the ship was loaded, all the personnel burst into cheers. The reporters at the scene kept taking pictures, recording this historic moment. "Boss, next we will use this experimental cargo ship to start experimental cargo transportation from the United States to the United Kingdom and Germany! Larger cargo ships have already started construction in various shipyards. At the rate that each shipyard is building four ships at the same time, our group will have 20 10,000-ton container ships in March next year. With the start of production at our shipyard in France, we will have a container ship carrying 800,000 tons by the end of 2046. " Wan Chongxin said to Fang Lang with an excited face. "Well! We must be steady and steady, and don''t rush for success. When people see the advantages of container ships, more and more people will join our container logistics industry." "Okay, boss. Some businessmen with a keen sense of smell have found our company, hoping to participate in the manufacture of container ships. I don''t know how I should reply to them?" Obviously, there are many merchants who can discover the benefits of container freight. It''s normal when someone comes to your door, but if no one comes to you. Fang Lang would be surprised! "Oh! Who are there?" "Basically, they are shipyards affiliated to some large consortiums in the United States. We dare not offend them!" Living in the United States is impossible to escape the control of various large consortia. Fang Lang just didn''t expect that such a small role as himself would attract the attention of the American consortium so quickly. "If we take a stake in technology and build a joint venture with them, will they agree?" An epoch-making product developed with great difficulty. Fang Lang is definitely not willing to only charge a patent fee. "If you agree, I will negotiate with them according to this plan." Fang Lang thought about the European recovery plan that was due in two years. At this time, capacity is very important. Although now the United States has a huge Liberty and Victory rounds. But Liberty and Victory are in the end just emergencies. At the beginning of the design, the free wheel was only given a service life of five years. Of course, the actual service life of many free wheels later far exceeded this design life. This is why many scientists continued to study these special ship types. Now that the war is over, the United States has a lot of free ships waiting to be sold off, and Fang Lang''s global shipping has only accepted a small part of them. Instead, they increased their efforts to invest in their own shipyards and started construction of brand new container ships. The fundamental purpose is to fill the market gap after the life of the free wheel expires. Now that someone wants to participate in the production of container ships. Fang Lang just wanted to quickly expand his fleet size during the European recovery plan to participate in the distribution of this wave of century dividends. "We can ask for less shares, but all the production on their production line for the past three years." After signing an agreement with these shipyards, the shipyard will definitely not refuse to own the output of their berth for three years. After all, who buys is not buying! By the time all these ships were delivered for global shipping, the time had come in 1949. At this time, the European recovery plan has been implemented for two years, and the biggest cake is equivalent to eating all of it in the stomach of global shipping. It''s **** exciting to think about it. The ships going to and from Europe and the United States will be cargo ships for global trade. Does it mean that Global Trade will have pricing power? Wan Chongxin obviously didn''t understand these things, not only Wan Chongxin didn''t understand, everyone didn''t understand. "Boss, in this case, although our global shipping company will definitely become the largest shipping company in the world, our financial pressure will be very high." I understand that as long as they deliver a ship that we pay for, there is no pressure on our money. You trust me. In the next few years, our ships will never have time to rest. But when we become the leader in the market, we have pricing power. " Everyone doesn''t understand why Fang Lang is sure that the ship will not have rest time in the next few years, but since Fang Lang has already decided, they will not raise objections. "Okay, boss, then I will negotiate with them according to your ideas." Radcliffe College, Boston, USA. "Hey! Lilith, what are you going to have for dinner tonight?" "Bazaar, I may not be able to have dinner with you tonight." "Ah! Why!" "Well, I have an appointment?" "Oh! Oh! Lilith, can''t it be that legendary boyfriend who came to see you?" "Hmm! So I''m sorry Bazaar." "Ah! Lilith, I didn''t expect you to be such a person. Shouldn''t you take me to have a big meal together? We are going to have winter vacation soon, and you and him have a lot of time together!" "Alright then! I''ll ask him for his opinion when I see him later, but I believe he won''t reject me." That''s right, this Lilith is Fang Lang''s Italian girlfriend. As for why he didn''t study at Harvard Medical School but went to this Radcliffe College? The reason is very simple, because the current Harvard Medical School does not accept female students, even if Fang Lang spends money. Radcliffe College is an affiliated school of Harvard University, of course it is a girls'' school. It was not until 1963 that Harvard University officially awarded diplomas to female students of Radcliffe College. In 1970, the two schools held graduation ceremonies together for the first time. As an affiliated school, the teachers of Radcliffe College are actually teachers of Harvard University, but before 1943, the school paid tuition fees to the teachers alone. After 1943, it was stipulated that girls'' schools should hand over 85% of tuition fees to Harvard, instead of paying teachers individually. This also means that Lilith can learn real knowledge in this school, but she cannot obtain a formal Harvard University diploma. But obviously, Fang Lang doesn''t care whether Lilith really has this degree, knowledge is her wealth. Fang Lang had already planned to set up a hospital in Brazil, and directly asked Lilith to practice medicine in his own hospital. Although the current status of women in Brazil is also not high, but with Fang Lang''s protection, there is no need to worry about Lilith''s safety. The management of girls'' schools is obviously much stricter than that of boys'' schools, so when Fang Lang came to Radcliffe College, he was directly stopped outside the school gate. Today, Boston has just had a light snowfall, and the roads have turned white. Fang Lang, who was hiding in the car, could feel the biting cold wind blowing in through the crack of the door. The waiting time is always very long, especially now that Fang Lang is full of expectations, and the time is even longer. Just when Fang Lang was considering whether to go to a roadside cafe for a cup of hot coffee. Finally saw the two girls and walked out quickly. Fang Lang recognized his lover at a glance, and quickly opened the car door to meet him. Lilith apparently also saw Fang Lang. He threw himself into Fang Lang''s arms directly, and couldn''t help crying. Weeping in a low voice: "Honey! I miss you so much!" Fang Lang saw the girl in his arms expressing his true feelings, and said equally emotionally: "Yeah! We haven''t seen each other for almost six months in a blink of an eye, and I miss you so much. Honey!" Bazaar on the side never expected that Lilith, who has always been very stable, would throw herself into the arms of a man at the school gate. Noticing the strange gazes of the people around him, he coughed twice. But Lilith hugged Fang Lang tightly as if she didn''t hear anything. Fang Lang still noticed the reminder from the girl next to him, patted Lilith in his arms and said: "Honey, who is this?" Lilith, who was reminded by Fang Lang, realized that her classmates were also brought out by herself. "Honey, this is my good friend Bazaar at school! Bazaar is my boyfriend Fang Lang." Hearing Lilith''s introduction, Fang Lang nodded to the girl, but saw that the other party extended his hand generously. Fang Lang quickly took off his gloves, gently shook the opponent''s slender palm and said: "Hello! I''m Lilith''s boyfriend, nice to meet you!" Bazaar is an obviously very talkative American girl. She is about the same height as Lilith, but she is a little thinner and not as hot as Lilith. "Hello! Lilith always tells me how good her boyfriend is, which makes me very curious. Today I finally met a real person. Nice to meet you!" (end of this chapter) Chapter 149: artillery expert Chapter 149 Artillery Expert Lilith, who had been holding Fang Lang and was reluctant to let go, saw that the two knew each other, and said to Bazaar: "Let''s go! Bazaar, let''s get in the car!" Turned his head to Fang Lang again and said: "Honey, let''s take Bazaar to have a big meal together!" Although Fang Lang really wanted to live a two-person world with Lilith, the girl had already asked for a friend, and of course he would not refuse. also opened his mouth and invited Bazaar: "Of course no problem, it''s too cold outside. Miss Bazaar, get in the car! Let''s go find delicious food together." Bazaar looked at the way the two were making out, and their excitement of wanting to have dinner with their good friends faded away. Obviously, this dog food is already enough. Shaking his head repeatedly, he said, "I don''t want it!" After finishing speaking, she turned and left, not forgetting to turn her head to Lilith and say: "Lilith, I won''t hold the door for you tonight!" Lilith blushed when she said this directly. It turned out that the two were still roommates. Looking at Lilith''s blushing cheeks, Fang Lang smiled and hugged her tightly in his arms again. Lilith also buried her head in Fang Lang''s arms, feeling the warmth of her lover''s embrace, and never wanted to leave again. At this time, Fang Lang didn''t say much, but quietly felt the strength of the girl in his arms that seemed to melt into his body. I don''t know how long it took, but the snowflakes turned their hair white. Fang Lang whispered in Lilith''s ear: "Honey, look at your hair has turned white." As a result, the girl in his arms didn''t see any reaction. Fang Lang thought that something unusual had happened, but when he looked down, Lilith fell asleep in his arms. Now it''s Fang Lang''s turn to be confused. Why did the little girl who was trying to squeeze into her arms just now suddenly fall asleep? Gently picked up Lilith and put her in the back row of the vehicle, took off his coat and covered her. directly took her back to her hotel suite. The restaurant that was originally booked can only be refunded. Looking at the girl with a happy smile but a haggard face, Fang Lang gently took off Lilith''s shoes, and called hot water to wash her face and feet. Also went to bed and hugged him, watching him quietly, nothing happened that night. Early the next morning, Lilith kept tickling Fang Lang''s nostrils with the ends of her hair. Fang Lang, who was sleeping, sneezed twice and woke up. Lovely rubbed the girl''s head and said: "Could it be that you haven''t had a good rest for the past two days! You can still see your dark circles yesterday." The girl narrowed her eyes like a kitten and let out a soft "hmm". "Did you study too hard?" The girl lowered her head and shook her head slightly. He raised the girl''s head with his hand, looked into her eyes and said: "Miss me, can''t sleep?" I thought the girl would bow her head like a kitten. As a result, the girl turned over and lay on Fang Lang''s body, looked at Fang Lang with burning eyes and said: "Honey, I want you!" Fang Lang definitely couldn''t refuse this kind of request. The next thing is naturally that the dry firewood meets the fire, and it burns more and more vigorously. Next, Fang Lang accompanied Lilith on the streets of Boston for two days before leaving reluctantly. Fang Lang''s destination this time is Shata Company in Baltimore. When Fang Lang and his team arrived downstairs at the Shata Company, Jefferson was already waiting at the door. Although Jefferson used to be a lieutenant general of the U.S. Army, he is now only the manager of Shata Corporation. The person who came here today is the major shareholder of Shata Corporation. The minimum respect is still necessary. "Boss, nice to meet you!" "Jefferson, nice to see you too. Let''s go in and talk! It''s really cold outside." The office building of Shata Company is a very inconspicuous two-story building. The reason why the office is located in Baltimore is that it is very close to Washington. It is also very close to the US General Logistics Department. Many employees of Shata Company are retired military officers from the original Logistics Department. Fang Lang can''t find the feeling of being a master here at all. But Fang Lang didn''t come here to show off his might. Entering Jefferson''s office, Fang Lang said straight to the point: "Jefferson, I heard that you are good friends with Mr. Marcel Bofors from the Swedish Bofors Company, right?" At first, Jefferson thought that Fang Lang came to explain the purchase of tank division equipment in Brazil. Unexpectedly, the first sentence he spoke had nothing to do with this arms deal. "Yes, boss, I was the one who negotiated with Mr. Marcel Bofors when we purchased the Bofors anti-aircraft gun. After the business was settled, we became good friends. I dont know if the boss wants to know him? The famous Bofors is a genuine "hundred-year-old shop" in today''s arms industry. Its founder is the world-renowned "dynamite king" Nobel. This arms group located in Sweden, a small Nordic country, produced the 40mm anti-aircraft guns in World War II as the main anti-aircraft weapons of almost all warships. "This time I was entrusted by the Brazilian government to build my own arms group in Brazil, so I want to introduce some artillery-related technologies." After listening to Fang Lang''s words, he shook his head and said: "Then why do you want to look far away? We have complete artillery technology in the United States? As long as it is not more than 200mm artillery, I think the relationship between the Brazilian government and us should be able to obtain production authorization." Of course Fang Lang knows that the United States has a full set of artillery technology! But Yankees often sell things with some political needs. The arms group established in the name of his own family this time certainly has no right to agree to any political demands of the United States. As a reborn person, Fang Lang has a general understanding of the development trend of artillery. Mountain cannons that are popular now have basically gradually withdrawn from the battlefield, and began to develop towards self-propelled and heavy-duty. In particular, the replacement of sighting and sighting equipment is very fast. With the use of various automated and semi-automated equipment, the shooting accuracy of artillery is getting higher and higher, and the threat of anti-battery warfare is growing. Especially after the artillery radar appeared, the artillery was required to run away after finishing the attack, and the enemy should not be given a chance to lock you. This is why self-propelled artillery and truck guns became popular later. "We definitely won''t be able to get more than 200mm guns. My main goal is to produce 105mm and 155mm calibers. Can these gun technologies be obtained?" "We have these two medium-caliber artillery! The M2A1 105mm howitzer and the M1A1 155mm howitzer are our main equipment! These two types of artillery Bofors have no technical advantages. " Of course Fang Lang knows that the main advantage of Bofors is anti-aircraft guns. Fang Lang only wants to introduce the technology of 20mm and 40mm anti-aircraft guns from Bofors. The target of the large-caliber artillery is Germany. But of course it would be great if you can directly obtain 105 and 155 mm caliber artillery technology from the United States. "My primary goal is to introduce 20mm and 40mm anti-aircraft guns from Bofors, and first solve the problem before developing large-caliber artillery." After listening to Fang Lang''s words, Jefferson thought for a while and said: "Boss, I don''t know. Has your military industrial group been completed? Do you need the support of some professionals?" "Not yet, the group has already started to be established in Brazil, and the factory building has not yet been completed! Of course I need professionals very much. Why, do you have any good recommendations here?" Is there another surprise coming to your door? "Boss, you also know that we are currently disarming. During the war, we converted many civilian factories into military factories, so that there are a lot of equipment and talents, and now we have to face unemployment. I know a guy named Bull, a Canadian-American, who during the war ran an artillery factory that produced nearly all the artillery we have in service. The most important thing is that he himself is a professor of engineering. According to himself, he has studied the Paris cannons during World War I very deeply and is a solid artillery expert. However, now he is unemployed. " Jefferson''s words opened up a new way of thinking for Fang Lang! Why do I always think about buying production equipment and technology? Equipment and technology will always be outdated! Only people can keep up with the progress of the times! I can find suitable talents all over the world and invest in them, isnt it all right? In this era, there are many people who have not made a fortune yet! Who can have an advantage in this regard than myself? "I understand what you mean. I don''t know where he is, can you let me meet him." Fang Lang''s words made Jefferson happy. Bull was actually his high school classmate, and the relationship between the two was very strong. Now with the end of the war, I have retired, Bull has lost his job, and the two are also related to the same disease, so they often complain together. It would be great if Fang Lang could offer him a job. "Of course the boss, his hometown is Baltimore, I will notify him now." That afternoon, Fang Lang met the artillery expert Jefferson called in a cafe in Baltimore. The middle-aged man whose full name is Girard Bull is a middle-aged man with a height of 1.8 meters and a slightly fat body. His black hair is naturally curled on his head, which looks a little funny. It should be very important to this meeting, so Bull dressed very formally, with a white shirt, black tie, and a black suit jacket. Wearing like this in such a cold time is not warm at all. Fortunately, the temperature in the coffee shop is still warm. If it is outside, Mr. Bull will probably catch a cold if he can''t chat for a few words. "Hello, Mr. Bull, I am Fang Lang." "Hi, Mr. Fang, I''m Girard Bull. Nice to meet you!" Fortunately, Mr. Bull looked very confident when he spoke, which made Fang Lang very satisfied. "I want to hear your opinion on the development trend of artillery." Since it was an interview, Fang Lang was of course straight to the point. My personal opinion is that the artillery in the future will become more and more heavy, which can be seen from the Gustav heavy artillery produced in Germany in the later period. Judging from the situation of World War II, there is another important development trend of artillery, which is mobility, and it must be able to follow the infantry at any time. Provide infantry with the role of suppressing fire and clearing threatening targets. Therefore, the number of self-propelled artillery on the battlefield is also increasing rapidly. " Boole obviously has a deep understanding of artillery technology. At least these two points of understanding are consistent with what Fang Lang''s later generations learned. (end of this chapter) Chapter 150: Morgan has a date Chapter 150 Morgan has a date It seems that Bull is indeed, as Jefferson said, an artillery expert. And the other party has management experience in a large artillery production factory, it seems that he is a talent. "If this artillery factory was handed over to you, what would you do?" "Boss, I think that no matter what product innovation can make progress. Although the war has made technological progress very fast, I don''t think we should stop. At least I think that in the future development, the urgent problem to be solved is to reduce the weight of the artillery. The increasing caliber of the artillery means that its weight will also increase accordingly, and the increase in weight will obviously lose its mobility, which is contradictory. Therefore, I think the most important thing we need to do in the future is to reduce the weight of artillery. This also means that if I manage this factory, I may need to invest a lot of research expenses. " Fang Lang didn''t expect that the other party would say that he needed a lot of research funding when they met for the first time. However, what he said is indeed consistent with his own cognition. The reason why he knows this is because he is a modern person. The other party was able to see the future through the fog with his own knowledge, obviously a rare talent. smiled and said: "I agree with you, you don''t have to worry about the research and development expenses of the artillery." "Boss, artillery is not a separate project. If you want to keep your factory advanced in the future, I have two requirements that need to be explained in advance." Hearing that Fang Lang promised that he would not have to worry about the research and development funds, it was obvious that he had taken a fancy to him, and Bull was very happy. However, as an aspiring artillery expert, he is very clear that the power of artillery is not determined solely by the artillery itself. So he decided to make his own request. I didn''t expect that Boole would ask himself just after he expressed his willingness to let Boolean manage the factory. Can''t help being a little curious: "Oh! Tell me about it." From Fang Lang''s expression, it can be seen that the other party is not angry or dissatisfied. Since Bull has said that the two requirements are to keep the factory advanced, Fang Lang certainly will not have any dissatisfaction. After all, what he wants is also an advanced artillery factory! Boole did not hide and said directly: "Actually, shells are the most closely related to the power of artillery, so I want to develop new types of ammunition, which requires investment. In addition, the accuracy of the artillery is not only related to the machining accuracy of the barrel, but also has a huge relationship with the sighting equipment. So we also need to conduct research on sighting and sighting equipment. " Bull''s words made Fang Lang feel that he had indeed picked up a professional talent, at least a professional artillery talent who knew more than himself. This made Fang Lang very happy and took the initiative to extend his hand to hold Bull. "There is no problem with what you said. I don''t know when you can start working. I hope you can participate in the construction of the factory. I fully support R&D, but R&D talents need to be found by yourself, and each R&D project must be approved by me. " Boole quickly got up and said: "Thanks to the trust of the boss, I can go to Brazil to take over the construction of the factory in a week. Don''t worry, I can quickly form a corresponding team for research and development." "Do well, and hope that one day our artillery can be exported to the whole world." Now that the artillery factory has professionals in charge of handling it, Fang Lang can be considered to have settled one of his concerns, and returned to New York by plane that night. But before Fang Lang could sit on his butt, the assistant Miss Berg found Fang Lang in a hurry. "Boss, Mr. Morgan invites you to dinner at the Plaza Hotel at seven o''clock tonight." "Mr. Morgan? That Mr. Morgan!" "Mr. Morgan, Morgan Stanley!" Ms. Berger was shocked that Fang Lang didn''t know about Morgan Stanley. This is the largest investment bank under the Morgan Consortium, one of the largest consortia in the United States! Morgan Stanley''s top name, of course Fang Lang has heard of it. This is an investment bank established in 1935. 1941 Morgan Stanley cooperated with the New York Stock Exchange and became a partner of the stock exchange. As an investment bank that cooperates with the New York Stock Exchange, the reason for finding Fanglang is obvious. This is because of the development potential of the Global Group, and they want to come up to get a share! However, Fang Lang does not reject this. After all, the war is over now, and a period of rapid economic development is about to usher in. Fang Lang certainly wouldn''t mind if he could quickly expand the company''s scale through listing and financing. But when this kind of consortium comes to seek cooperation, shouldn''t I ask for something? Thinking about it, Fang Lang has always wanted to enter this field because he is an electronic information generation, but unfortunately he has never had a chance. And the Morgan consortium that came to the door this time doesn''t have an AT&T company in their hands? AT&T now monopolizes the long-distance and local telephone market in the United States. How much money can be earned in the telephone and telegraph business? Just think about China Mobile and China Telecom. However, Fang Lang fell in love with this company, obviously not because of the company''s profitability. It is because this company owns the greatest laboratory in the world. The invention of this laboratory has led to the rapid development of electronic information technology for a hundred years. Invented transistors, lasers, solar cells, light-emitting diodes, digital switches, communication satellites, electronic digital computers, C language, UNIX operating system, cellular mobile communication equipment, long-distance television transmission, artificial language, sound movies, stereo recording, and communication networks Wait. If you can use this opportunity to obtain several technical supports from this company, it will be in the field of electronic information in the future. Fang Lang will no longer be controlled by others. Of course, the invention of the transistor will take another two years. This laboratory has been established for nearly 20 years now, and it has a lot of good things in hand. "Oh! You are talking about the Morgan Stanley of the Morgan consortium, right?" "Yes Boss!" "Did he say what he wanted me for?" Hearing Fang Lang''s question, Berg was taken aback for a moment, as if he was too excited when he heard that the big man wanted to see the boss, and forgot to ask the other party''s purpose. Shaking his head in embarrassment. Looking at Berg''s dumbfounded look, Fang Lang felt his index finger move again. its not right! Didn''t this just make out with Lilith? Half a year without Lilith and Vivienne has been easily passed, why is my heart so restless recently? Really couldn''t hold back and flicked Berg''s forehead lightly as punishment. The atmosphere suddenly became ambiguous. Reflecting that this is not Lilith or Vivian, he quickly pretended to be nonchalant and said: "Okay, you call him back, I will go to the dinner on time tonight. By the way, I may need a female companion for the dinner. I don''t know if Miss Berg can" Before Fang Lang could say what he said, Berg said in a hurry: "Okay! Okay! But I need a dress to attend this kind of party, what should I do if I don''t have a dress!" Thinking about the first day I saw myself pretending to be aloof, I was looking at the girl who is a bit naive now. Fang Lang couldn''t help but sigh in his heart that women are fickle, and the ancients never deceived me. "Since you are accompanying me to attend, of course I will be in charge of your dress! Let''s go! I haven''t visited the commercial streets of New York yet? Just as you are a guide, take me to see the prosperity of New York!" "Wouldn''t this be too good! How about you deduct it from my salary!" Begg obviously just came out of work and didn''t have a lot of money, but he didn''t want to give up this opportunity to meet important people. Fang Lang laughed at that tangled little expression. "Okay, okay, you deducted from your salary. Shall we go?" "Alright then! The Plaza Hotel is on Fifth Avenue, let''s go directly to Fifth Avenue to have a look!" Berg is only twenty-four years old, and he still doesn''t have the kind of aloofness he pretends to be. On the way, Fang Lang thought of this girl''s education, and couldn''t help but wonder: "Berg, I remember you saying you are a Harvard MBA student?" "yes!" "But I remember that Harvard University doesn''t seem to admit female students! You can''t be falsifying your academic qualifications!" "What nonsense are you talking about! I won''t fake my academic qualifications! I graduated from a girls'' school at Harvard University. My tutor told me that my grades surpassed those of Harvard graduates at the same level. It is because I am a woman that I cannot be awarded a diploma from Harvard University. I couldnt find a good job after I came out, and most companies didnt recruit women. In the end, you can only interview to become an assistant. " "Haha. Seeing what you mean, I don''t seem very convinced to have you as an assistant!" Fang Lang''s topic obviously hit Berg''s heartache, and he looked out the window without making a sound. "By the way, I just came back from your school this time!" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Berg turned to look at Fang Lang and said: "Oh! Do you still need your big boss to check the academic qualifications of my little assistant?" From Berg''s tone, Fang Lang could hear Berg''s dissatisfaction with not being trusted. "I don''t have time to investigate your academic qualifications. The main reason is that my girlfriend is studying in your school''s medical school. I will visit her!" "Ah! Is your girlfriend also a student of Radcliffe College?" Berg looked at Fang Langdao in surprise. Immediately afterwards, as if remembering something, he said angrily. "Wait, you have a girlfriend? Where did you tell me like that last time?" "Tell you like that? What did I say?" Fang Lang was taken aback by this question and asked in confusion. Seeing that Berg''s face turned red and then pale, he pondered for a while before saying: "It means boyfriend!" "Oh! So you heard what I said! Then do you mind having another boyfriend? Hehe" "You already have girlfriends and want to be my boyfriend, how can you be such an asshole!" "You also have a boyfriend! I don''t mind!" Beg was stunned when he heard Fang Lang''s words, feeling that his three views had been subverted. I said in my heart that I have never seen such a brazen person. Almost vomited three liters of blood from anger, and it took a long while to suppress his emotions and say: "Boss, you''re a real jerk!" Fang Lang raised his head and smiled: "Thank you for the compliment!" Looking at Fang Lang''s shameless expression, Berg didn''t know whether Fang Lang was telling the truth or joking. But looking at this rogue-like boss, he seems to be easy to get along with. He didn''t get angry when he called him an **** himself. (end of this chapter) Chapter 151: bell labs Chapter 151 Bell Laboratories Soon Berg remembered the first time he met Fang Lang, outside the corridor door, when Fang Lang scolded his subordinates with a sullen face. I was in a daze for a while, not knowing which one was Fang Lang''s real face. While Berg was full of thoughts, Fang Lang''s car parked outside a high-end custom dress shop on Fifth Avenue. After waiting for a while, someone opened the car door, Fang Lang got out of the car, and the cold wind blew into the car, and Berg came back to his senses. Berg had just opened the car door when he saw Fang Lang had walked around to his side and stretched out his hand to him in a very gentlemanly manner. After hesitating for a moment, Berg put his hand on Fang Lang''s, then got out of the car, took Fang Lang''s arm with his hand, and walked into this splendid high-end custom dress shop together. The waiter who greeted the guests at the door knew that he had met a big shot when he saw how many people were traveling. At this time, no one paid attention to Fang Lang''s complexion, and hurriedly stepped forward to open the store door and bowed to welcome him. A blond boy who looked to be in his twenties stepped forward politely and said to Fang Lang: "Sir, welcome, I don''t know how I can help you." Fang Lang glanced casually at the spacious storefront, which was very luxuriously decorated, with various men''s and women''s dresses hanging in the store for workers to choose from. Nodded Fang Lang said to the young man beside him: "Is there any female shopping guide to match a dress for the dinner party for the lady next to me. We are in a hurry, please hurry up." "Okay, sir. Arrange for you right away." Soon, a female shopping guide in her thirties walked up quickly. Fang Lang patted Berg''s hand holding his arm, and motioned him to follow the shopping guide to choose a dress. And it was obviously the first time for Berg to enter such a high-end store, so he was a little nervous and didn''t dare to let go. Fang Lang had to whisper in her ear: "Go! Don''t worry, your boss is not short of money." Berg took a deep breath, and finally mustered up the courage to follow the female shopping guide in. Fang Lang drank a cup of coffee, and when he was a little impatient waiting, there was a "click", and the door of the large fitting room opened. With a pair of red high heels on his feet, a long black dress, and a pure white mink vest on his shoulders, Berg with his golden hair behind his head is like Nicole Kidman walking into a red carpet show field. Directly made Fang Lang''s eyes unable to move away. "Sir, believe me, your female companion will definitely be the focus of the banquet tonight." Fang Lang, who swallowed his saliva, finally came back to his senses: "It''s a great outfit, but don''t you think she''s missing something around her neck?" "Sir, I think Tiffany next to you will be happy to match a piece of exquisite jewelry for your female companion." "Then what are you waiting for, let them come directly, I want to see the overall effect." After all, it is a high-end luxury store, and the service is indeed very good. Soon, several Tiffany clerks came over with jewelry for Fang Lang to choose. Fang Lang took a look and finally chose a diamond necklace! After putting it on for Berg, the effect was not too good, and the shopping guide beside him couldn''t help admiring from the bottom of his heart: "No Hollywood star is as beautiful as your wife." At this time, Berg obviously liked his outfit very much, but the shopping guide said that he was Fang Lang''s wife, and quickly explained: "Don''t get me wrong, this is my boss, I''m not his wife." Fang Lang directly interrupted Berg''s argument, and said to the shopping guide: "That''s all, pay the bill!" "Sir, including Tiffany''s jewelry, the total price is nine thousand eight hundred dollars." Beg beside ?? cried out in surprise: "Why is it so expensive? I don''t want it anymore." Obviously, with Bergs salary of 400 US dollars per month, it would take more than two years without eating or drinking to repay such a large amount of money. It''s a pity that Fang Lang never gave him a chance to repent. Shua Shua Shua Shua signed a check and handed it over. Berg walked out of the store in a daze, only to react to the cold wind outside the door. I have become a millionaire. This made her look at Fang Lang with resentment, thinking, this game is over, and she is bound by debt. The boss won''t try to mess with himself! Fang Lang next to him obviously didn''t care about this consumption, and said casually: "Let''s go, let''s meet the famous Mr. Morgan." The Plaza Hotel is located in the bustling area of ??Fifth Avenue in New York, and this building is also a standard building on Fifth Avenue. When Fang Lang and the two came to the hotel, there were already people waiting at the door. The two were quickly led to a very high-end restaurant box. A bald middle-aged man in his forties had already extended his hand to Fang Lang. "Mr. Fang, you are so young!" "You must be Mr. Morgan, you look a few years older than me!" Both of them laughed, introduced their female companions to each other, and then entered the box to take a seat. "Mr. Fang, have all the container systems developed by your Global Group been completed?" After a few people simply ate a few mouthfuls, Mr. Morgan directly brought the topic to the main topic. This is completely different from what Fang Lang heard that Westerners don''t like not talking about work while eating. "That''s right, all the tests have been passed and trial operation has begun. Why is Mr. Morgan interested in entering the shipping industry?" Fang Lang asked knowingly. "Haha Mr. Fang, this great invention of yours will completely change the new pattern of the world shipping industry. Although we at Morgan will not enter the shipping industry, we are very interested in such companies. I wonder if Mr. Fang has considered listing the company? " "IPO? I don''t know which company Mr. Morgan is talking about?" Now Fanglang Global Group has six wholly-owned subsidiaries, namely Global Trade, Global Shipping, Global Shipbuilding, Global Steel, Global Port Machinery, and Global Terminal. Global Trade only owns 25% of Shata Trading''s equity, so it is not a subsidiary of Global Group. With so many branches under the Global Group, Fang Lang also wanted to know which company had the most investment potential in front of a big investment bank like Morgan. In my opinion, these companies owned by Mr. Fang have great potential, so if Mr. Fang is willing, we hope to list all of them. If Mr. Fang is considerate, we can also proceed one by one. " "I don''t know which company Mr. Morgan is most optimistic about the development of?" A consortium with a strong presence in the United States like the Morgan family must have known about the upcoming European recovery plan in the United States. Therefore, Fang Lang estimates that Morgan most wants to promote the listing must be global shipping. The result was unexpected, Morgan actually said: "Fang, of course we are optimistic about Global Shipbuilding, which has the advantages of patented technology." Fang Lang felt a little strange. Hasn''t the US government started to propose a European recovery plan? "But my global shipbuilding is not a big company! The shipyards owned in several countries are not big companies." "It is precisely because it is not a big factory that it has the potential for appreciation! Now, Global Shipbuilding has established shipyards in various European and American countries. The container system you invented has started to run again, and it is about to usher in a period of rapid development! This is the time when funds are needed to rapidly expand and occupy the market. So, if you ask us to choose one of your companies to go public, we will definitely choose Global Shipbuilding! " "Okay! What Mr. Morgan said is indeed very reasonable, but the actual situation now is that our Universal Group does not lack funds for development. So, I''m not ready to take my company public right now. If Mr. Morgan is really optimistic about my global shipbuilding, how about we change the way of cooperation? " Mr. Morgan obviously did not expect that the young man in front of him would play cards completely out of routine. But after hearing him talk about a different way of cooperation, he still became interested, and said with great interest: "Oh! Mr. Fang can talk about it." "I am also very optimistic about a company under the Morgan Consortium. I wonder if we can have a share swap?" These words really surprised Morgan. It was unexpected that this young man would fall in love with a company under the Morgan consortium, but it''s no wonder. As one of the largest consortiums in the United States, the Morgan consortium must have a lot of high-quality assets in hand, but I don''t know which company Fang Lang is looking at. "Oh! It''s an honor for us to be chosen by Mr. Fang for our company. I don''t know which company Mr. Fang wants to exchange shares in." "As far as I know, the Morgan Consortium is the majority shareholder of AT&T, right?" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Morgan smiled. Indeed, AT&T is indeed a communications company that has monopolized the long-distance and local telephone markets in the United States. The profitability of such a company is obviously very strong. "That''s right, AT&T is indeed the holding company of our Morgan consortium. However, the scale of this company is very huge now! If you want to exchange shares with this company, the shares you get will not play much role. " "Mr. Morgan, don''t worry, I know this company is indeed a very profitable company, but I don''t want to exchange shares with this company. It is a subsidiary of this company-Bell Laboratories. " Hearing this, Morgan was taken aback for a moment. Of course, the current Bell Labs has not achieved as much as the later generations. This laboratory was established in 1925 after AT&T acquired the R&D department of Western Electronics. of. When the company was established, Walter Kifford, president of AT&T, promised that three percent of the company''s annual profit would be used as research funding for Bell Labs. Because AT&T did not use its telephone patents to expand rapidly in the early stage, its income was not particularly high, which allowed him to escape the economic crisis in the 1930s. It was not until the outbreak of World War II that AT&T began to quickly occupy the national market and penetrate into Europe and the United States, which allowed Bell Labs to obtain a lot of financial support. Began to produce practical results: long-distance television transmission, digital computers, talking movies, and artificial larynx. Of course, the digital computer here is not the later electronic computer. This also means that this company has not actually produced much benefit, and at the same time, the company''s research and development capabilities have also been recognized by everyone. Fang Lang just doesn''t know how much the Morgan consortium attaches to this company, and whether he has the opportunity to join the company''s board of directors. (end of this chapter) Chapter 152: TV station director Chapter 152 TV station director Mr. Morgan obviously did not expect that the company Fang Lang was talking about turned out to be this laboratory. Regardless of whether this company has development potential in Morgan''s eyes, he must show strong confidence in this company at this time. "Mr. Fang, your vision is really vicious. This is the most important asset under AT&T. But this company is not a profit-making company, are you sure you want to exchange for the shares of this company? If you own the shares of this company, it means that you will bear the same proportion of the research and development expenses of this company! " Upon hearing this, Fang Lang didn''t understand what Morgan meant. It seemed that Morgan did not reject the exchange of shares in this company with Fang Lang. Obviously, the Morgan family has not yet discovered the greatness of this company. What are you afraid of assuming R&D expenses? Once you become a shareholder, it means that more than 20,000 scientists in this company can be used for yourself. This is the place where eight Nobel Prize winners and five scientists nominated for the Nobel Prize were born. "It''s okay to bear the research expenses, as long as I have the use period of all the results of the laboratory and the same proportion of patent income." This kind of request must be expected, after all, shareholders must automatically obtain investment income! Morgan has no reason to refuse, but Morgan is obviously not very familiar with this company, and there is no way to succeed in the negotiation at first. Since Fang Lang is willing to exchange his company''s shares, Morgan has obtained the investment opportunity he wants. Of course, there is definitely no way to compare the benefits with listing the company. "Mr. Fang, since this is the case, tomorrow I will bring your plan to the company''s board of directors for discussion. The specific results will have to wait for the results of the board''s discussion." "Mr. Morgan, I am waiting for good news!" In this way, both parties have achieved the main purpose of the meeting, and the rest needs to be organized by a professional team to carry out specific negotiations. These matters, the group company has professional legal affairs and investment department personnel to take care of, there is no need for the two big bosses to come forward in person. Fang Lang didn''t have high expectations for the shareholding ratio of Bell Labs. In his opinion, getting 20% ??was the peak. The largest proportion may be single digits. However, he will also inform the company''s negotiating team to transfer the shares of Universal Shipbuilding, which must not exceed 20%. Wolf of Wall Street style like the Morgan family, as long as the proportion of shares in their hands is reduced, they may be kicked out at any time. When Fang Lang took Berg into the car, Berg finally couldn''t help expressing his doubts. "Boss, why don''t you go public directly for financing? Instead, you have to exchange shares with a laboratory that has no income at all. Isn''t this a loss?" "It seems that you haven''t heard of this Bell Labs, have you?" "Is he famous?" "No, he can only be regarded as just in his early years, and he is not well-known outside. However, he has a huge reputation in the scientific community." "So how did you hear about this company?" Of course it is impossible for Fang Lang to tell him that he knew it from later generations! smiled and said: "Because I''m introducing a broadcast television system now, and this system comes from this laboratory. That''s why I heard his name." "Oh? Are you starting a TV station in Brazil?" Begg is the assistant to the chairman of the Universal Group. He knows that Fang Lang also has a Fangyuan Group in Brazil, but he doesn''t know the specific business scope of the Fangyuan Group. Therefore, I was very surprised to hear that Fang Lang was going to set up a TV station in Brazil. The United States actually officially started television broadcasting in June 1941, but because of the outbreak of World War II, the development of television broadcasting was frozen. After the war ended, it re-entered the period of high-speed development. Of course, the TVs at this time were still black and white. Color TV didn''t start to enter the market until 1950. "That''s right! The equipment is about to be shipped to Brazil, what''s wrong?" "Boss, I don''t know if your TV station still needs manpower!" Originally, he was just looking for a reason to tell Berg that he knew the reason of Bell Labs, but he didn''t expect Berg to ask such a question. "What, our Miss Berg, wants to change careers to become a broadcasting host!" At this time, in fact, many places in the United States already had television sets, and television and movies have also cultivated some star effects. So Fang Lang''s first reaction when he heard Berg''s question was that Berg wanted to be a TV star. As a result, Berg repeatedly waved his hands and said: "No, no, it''s an uncle of mine who''s been editor-in-chief at NBC for a few years, and I heard a while back that he wants to come out and start a new TV station. However, no investment was found, so I would like to help him ask if your TV station needs manpower. " There are only a few TV stations in the United States now, so there are indeed very few people who understand the operation of TV stations, and they are scarce talents. Fang Lang''s original plan was to merge the new TV station with his Brazil Times to form a news media company. Worried about where to find the right talent! Unexpectedly, my little assistant brought up this matter today. "Oh! Of course I need manpower very much, but this TV station is in Brazil. Brazil is a Portuguese-speaking country. Would your uncle be willing to work in Brazil?" "Really? That would be great, I''ll call him when I get back and ask if he''s interested." Seeing Berg''s happy face, he knew that the relationship between this uncle and their family was still very close. "If he is interested, you can help me make an appointment with him in these two days. I am going to England soon. Therefore, your efficiency should be faster." "Yeah, I''ll give you an answer tomorrow morning." The effect of the crooked topic is that Berg no longer remembers to ask Fang Lang about why he wants to exchange shares with Morgan. The next afternoon, Fang Lang met the uncle Berg was talking about. It doesn''t look very old, not more than forty years old at most, tall and thin, with a pair of eyes, and looks gentle. Scholarly temperament is very strong. Berg introduced the two parties and then left the office. "Mr. Anderson, Berg told me that you are the editor-in-chief of NBC, why would you want to come out and build a TV station yourself?" Fang Lang looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, and said directly. This is not the first time Anderson has met investors, but all investors refused to invest in him after hearing his ideas. And Berg is a child of his neighbor''s family, and he has a very happy relationship with their family. They all know that they have long thought of setting up a TV station by themselves. So, this morning, before he went to work, Berg stopped him at home and told him that his boss was going to build a TV station in Brazil. I happen to be a professional who can speak Portuguese, and I have long wanted to set up a TV station, so I asked myself if I have any intention to chat with his boss. Originally, Anderson refused, but his wife took the initiative to stand up and express her support for him. Only then did he muster up the courage to make the last attempt. "How should I put it? In fact, the main reason is that I want to find a stage to display my own ideas!" "Can you tell me what you think about TV stations?" When he heard Fang Lang express his thoughts on the TV station, Fang Lang hesitated. Because his ideas are not accepted by the world, every time he expresses his own idea of ??building a station, the conversation will come to a deadlock. But he thought about it for a while, gritted his teeth and chose to tell the truth. And said to myself in my heart, this is the last time, if it still doesn''t work, I can only give up this unrealistic fantasy. Of course, all TV channels now are paid channels, which I think is very detrimental to the promotion and dissemination of TV. My idea is to quickly promote my TV station in a free form, expand the audience, and let everyone have access to TV broadcasting. However, all investors think I am crazy, free channel, if there is no income, no one is willing to invest. I also found a TV producer, but no one was willing to invest in my project. They feel that TV is not the only one they make. Even if my TV station can increase the number of customers who buy TV sets, they may not necessarily buy the brands they produce. So until now I haven''t found a businessman willing to invest in me. " After saying this, Anderson was ready to be rejected. After all, every time he said this to investors, everyone would look at him like a fool. I can understand it when I think about it in my heart. After all, no one is willing to continue to invest in a project that will not generate income. Looking at Anderson''s frustrated expression, who obviously didn''t have much confidence, Fang Lang understood. The other party must have been rejected too many times, and already has the idea of ??giving up. Smiled, Fang Lang continued to ask: "Then how does Mr. Anderson plan to make this TV station profitable?" "Sorry, Mr. Fang, I have also thought of many ways and contacted many TV manufacturers. However, the results were not ideal, and everyone refused to pay for my crazy idea. " Anderson understood that today''s conversation was coming to an end, and just as he was about to take the initiative to end this conversation, he heard the other party continue to ask. "You know the operation of the TV station very well, don''t you?" "Yes, I participated in the formation of NBC, from the radio to the TV project, and I have a very good understanding of the entire operation of the station." "Then would you like to go to Brazil to work? Build a TV station again from scratch." Fang Lang''s question made Anderson stunned. What do you mean, did you agree with your own ideas? Looking up at Fang Lang in disbelief, he said: "Mr. Fang Fang, are you willing to invest in me?" Fang Lang smiled and didn''t answer Anderson''s question: "You answer my question first." "Yes, Mr. Fang, if you are willing to invest in me, of course I am willing to work in Brazil." "Then can you form a start-up team in the United States and take it directly to Brazil?" "If you can guarantee wage income higher than that of the United States, I don''t think there is any problem." "What do you think is the most important program of the TV station, or what kind of TV station do you want to build?" (end of this chapter) Chapter 153: bar conflict Chapter 153 Bar Conflict Now Anderson was a little surprised, because the question asked by the other party is something that many people would not pay attention to. In everyone''s mind, a TV station is a TV station. Where is the difference in nature? However, Anderson switched from radio to television, so he knew what Fang Lang meant. "What I want to form is a news station." "Since you want to get investment, how many shares do you want to get?" Anderson looked at Fang Lang with scorching eyes, and said with some hesitation in his mouth: "Mr. Fang, are you willing to invest in me? But I haven''t found a profit model for the TV station. I don''t have the capital to invest in this project either. If you are really willing to invest in the establishment of such a TV station, I don''t need shares, I am willing to work for you. " Fang Lang shook his head and said: "It doesn''t matter if you can''t find a profitable model. I know how to make my TV station profitable. Since it is an investment, of course I have to give you shares. I believe that the profitability of my TV station will not be lower than that of pay TV stations. So, you don''t have to worry. Tell me, how many shares do you want. " Anderson couldn''t believe his ears. Mr. Fang actually said that he could guarantee that his profit would not be lower than that of the pay TV station. "Mr. Fang, do you really have a way to make the TV station profitable? Can you tell me what it is?" Now Im telling you, if you change your boss and set up a TV station in the United States, wont it be none of my business? Therefore, Fang Lang shook his head without hesitation and said: "I won''t tell you until you build a TV station for me." Seeing Anderson doubting himself. "If you don''t believe me, I can write this in the contract. If my TV station is not a free channel, I can pay you a hundred thousand dollars in liquidated damages. That''s enough money to get you back to America and start a new TV station, isn''t it? " After hesitating for a long while, Anderson still decided to take a gamble, nodded and said: "Okay! I believe in you, Mr. Fang. I don''t want shares. I am willing to work for you and establish Brazil''s first TV station." "Since you don''t know how many shares you want, I''ll give you 3% of management shares and another 2% as equity incentives. Reward outstanding employees. However, let me make it clear that these shares can only enjoy dividend rights and cannot be traded. can you accept? " Seeing that Fang Lang was so confident and mentioned dividends, he was obviously really confident in the profitability of the TV station, and Anderson felt more at ease. "Okay! Mr. Fang, I''m fine!" "As for the wages and benefits of you and the recruited employees, they are all raised by 20% compared with those in the United States. Can you accept it?" This is Anderson, and he didn''t say much anymore, he stood up and stretched out his hand to Fang Lang: "Boss, happy cooperation. I will go back and resign today, and I will take a complete team to Brazil to form your TV station in one month at the latest." Fang Lang also stood up and shook hands with him: "It belongs to our TV station." What Im talking about here is only TV stations, not including the installation of cable TV lines. Todays TVs dont have satellite signals, so cable transmission is needed. The situation of not finding a profit point for free channels is similar to that of many Internet start-ups in later generations. Yahoo and Netscape in the United States only discovered advertising as a source of income after a long period of exploration. Fang Lang notified the assistant group of Fangyuan Group that the assistant in charge of connecting the "Brazil Times" came into his office. "Dora Barnetta, this is Mr. Anderson, is the partner I found for our upcoming TV station. From now on we will start a brand new media group. The name is Fangyuan Media. The "Brazil Times" and the soon-to-be-established TV station are under the jurisdiction of the media company, and a radio station needs to be established. How far has our "Brazil Times" developed now? " Dora Barnetta is a young man of Brazilian origin, with a very healthy yellow-black skin and not tall. Graduated from the University of Sao Paulo, Brazil. This university was founded in 1934. Dora Barnetta is the sixth graduate, studying journalism and working in a local newspaper in Sao Paulo after graduation. After the establishment of "Brazil Times", it developed very rapidly. He joined the Brazil Times in the second month of its establishment. As for why Fang Lang''s Fangyuan Group assistant team is male, the reason is very simple. The status of women in Brazil is too low now. In April 1945, President Vargas legally recognized that literate women who had reached the age of eighteen had the right to vote. However, there were very few Brazilian women who could read and write during this period. Not to mention the Brazilian women who can come out to do clerical work. But this period is also a period when the status of Brazilian women begins to rise rapidly. "Boss, now our Brazilian Times is already the most influential newspaper in Brazil, with a daily circulation of two million copies. The editor-in-chief is considering whether to create a new publication to further occupy the market. " Fang Lang had already discovered when he was in Natal that the Brazilian Times was everywhere in a remote province like Natal. Obviously, Times of Brazil is growing very fast. However, Fang Lang''s eyes are not only on Brazil''s one-acre three-point land. Think about the Murdoch Media Group of later generations, which is a global media group. "I have no objection to starting a new publication, but you have to remind them not to limit their attention to Brazil. We can also acquire American newspapers! After our TV station is established in Brazil, Mr. Anderson can also set up a TV station in the United States! Our goal is to make Fangyuan Media a global media group. Do you understand? " Fang Lang said this in front of Anderson, of course, to appease Anderson''s heart, and at the same time to set a more ambitious goal for everyone. Sure enough, Anderson was overjoyed when he heard that Fang Lang wanted to set up a TV station in the United States, and quickly agreed: "Boss, I still have a lot of contacts in the media industry in the United States. If necessary, I can come forward to help pave the way for the development of the group company in the United States." After hearing Anderson''s statement, Fang Lang was also overjoyed, and quickly said: "That''s really great, Barnetta, please record. From now on, Mr. Anderson will be the vice president of Fangyuan Media Group. He will be responsible for building the TV station and assisting the development of media companies in Europe and America. If you need to start an acquisition or merger project, you can directly seek help from our Brazilian Development Bank. " "Understood the boss, I will immediately form a document of your opinion and send it to the group company." Anderson was of course even more happy. He went directly from the editor-in-chief of NBC TV station to the vice president of a media company. This kind of progress is beyond the reach of many people in their lifetime. In this way, I just attended a dinner party held by Morgan, but in the end, I got a director of a TV station. It can be regarded as solving Fang Lang''s worries. This made Fang Lang very happy. That night, Fang Lang contacted Wan Chongxin and expressed his desire to experience the nightlife in New York. What else to say, arrange! That night, at the Forward Bar in Manhattan, New York. Accompanied by Wan Chongxin and Anderson, Fang Lang wanted to experience the bar culture in New York. Of course, he never thought about Aventure, and no one asked. But when Fang Lang was full of excitement, he walked down the stairs and entered this bar in the basement, which is said to have a history of more than ten years! Looking at the small stage, a singer is singing the most popular country music of this era. Fang Lang fell into a state of bewilderment. Where are the hot girls? What about the dance floor? What performance did you take off? The trousers are all taken off, no, the bullets are all ready, just show me this? What I want is an atmosphere full of passionate people! What I want is the feeling of being surrounded by beauties! What I want is the stimulation of meat sticking meat friction! Now tell me this is the bar? Several people gathered around the table, watching the performance on the small stage, Fang Lang felt very boring. Wan Chongxin clearly saw Fang Lang''s absent-mindedness, and said puzzledly: "Boss, what''s wrong?" "Is this your bar?" "Yup!" "Where''s the heavy metal rock music? Where''s the DJ? Where''s the lighting?" As he was talking, Fang Lang realized it first, and he seemed to be right! The current audio equipment should not be as advanced as later, and the lighting equipment and the like should not appear as in later generations! It seems that I took it for granted. The bars in this era are not as lively as later generations, and the girls today are not as open as later generations. disappointment! Bad review! Seeing that the two wanted to continue talking, Fang Lang had completely lost interest in chatting. Waved his hands and said: "Forget it, it''s nothing! Drink!" After two glasses of wine, Fang Lang slowly lost interest watching the singers on stage singing music he had never heard before. Greeted the two of them and went to the bathroom. As soon as I reached the bathroom door, I was stopped by two white men! The two looked at Fang Lang with disgust, and the big white man on the left cursed directly: "Get out, yellow-skinned monkey, you are not welcome here." Fang Lang, who was already a little depressed because of disappointment, heard this, and the anger in his heart was instantly ignited. Lifting the leg means kicking the crotch of the white man on the left with a provocative leg. There was only a "click" sound, and the sound of the egg cracking came. The man bent down and squatted down, unable to stand up again. Seeing this, the man on the right threw a straight punch at Fang Lang''s face. Fang Lang lowered his head to avoid the straight punch, grabbed the extended wrist, and threw the opponent to the ground with an over-the-shoulder throw. How to say Fang Lang is also a soldier who has been on the battlefield and killed the enemy. These actions are basically instinctive. In addition, the two men on the opposite side were obviously drunk, so of course they couldn''t be Fang Lang''s opponents. The movement here caused a commotion in the bar. Everyone hasn''t figured out what''s going on yet, and a few white people saw the fallen white people, wondering if it''s suitable for friends. He punched Fang Lang. By the time Wan Chongxin and Jackson reacted, Fang Lang had already crashed into the arms of a white man and punched him in the liver. The man fell directly. Wan Chongxin and Jackson had seen this battle before, and they were at a loss for a while. But after all, Wan Chongxin also lived in the bottom of Chinatown. Don''t care so much, just rushed into the battlefield. Jackson saw it, good guy, the boss was beaten up, so what can I say, just do it. is also added. Wan Chongxin was okay, but Jackson just went in to make trouble. He didn''t get hit, but he took a lot of hits. Fortunately, the movement inside attracted the attention of the soldiers guarding outside to protect Fang Lang, and they rushed in. Soon all the men surrounding Fang Lang were beaten to the ground. (end of this chapter) Chapter 154: in the name of revenge Chapter 154 In the name of revenge Fang Lang also had ten thousand muddy horses passing by in his heart, and his heart was also inexplicably angry. He really met these unidentified racists wherever he went. Soon, sirens sounded outside, and two policemen broke into the bar! I was taken aback when I saw what was going on inside. A group of white men fell to the ground moaning, and another group surrounded them. Looking at the posture of this group of people, the police knew that they were not easy to mess with. But they can only bite the bullet and say: "NYPD, all hands up." Fang Lang didn''t even look at the two policemen, and walked directly to the two men who blocked his way first. Seeing Fang Lang''s movements, the police quickly pointed the pistol in their hands at Fang Lang, and shouted: "Hold on, NYPD!" When the soldiers around saw the situation, four soldiers stepped forward and blocked the police''s muzzle with their bodies. The soldiers behind also took out their weapons and aimed at the two policemen. In an instant, cold sweat began to break out on the foreheads of the two policemen. It seemed that they met someone they couldn''t afford to offend today. Looking at the indifferent eyes of these soldiers, the police knew that these people were ruthless characters. Hastily raised a hand to signal: "Everyone, don''t be nervous. We are the police. We received a report saying that there was a fight here. We are here to deal with the situation!" Fang Lang was squatting beside the wailing man lying on the ground at this time, admiring his wailing. The foot accidentally stepped on the man''s hand, and the man''s cry of pain became louder. He cursed even more in his mouth: "Yellow monkey, you are finished! I must kill you! You are dead! Ah! Ah!" Fang Lang smiled, looked back at the two policemen indifferently and said: "Mr. Police Officer, I heard that this man threatened to kill me just now!" After speaking, he turned to Wan Chong and said: "Chongxin, call a lawyer to handle it! Tell them, I''m going to sue the two of them for bankruptcy." The police were relieved when they heard Fang Lang''s words. Just ask a lawyer to handle it, so that everyone doesn''t have to make it difficult. After all, in this situation, if one is not good, the two may be shot to death. The current police are not like the later generations, who can call a lot of support directly with a walkie-talkie. These two policemen were able to arrive here in time, probably because this is a wealthy area of ??Manhattan, and they happened to be patrolling nearby. If you offend the group of people in front of you, you just turn around and leave in a cool way, and you dont know where to look for them. "Okay, Boss!" Wan Chongxin heard Fang Lang''s order, got up directly and went to the bar of the bar, picked up the phone and dialed out. Fang Lang looked at the pale faces of the two policemen, waved his hand and said: "Okay, everyone put away your weapons! Don''t make it difficult for Mr. Police Officer." The soldiers put away their weapons at the same time. The two policemen also let out a sigh of relief, and silently put away their weapons. "Mr. Police Officer, I am staying at the Marriott Hotel in Central Park, if you have anything to do, you can come to the hotel to find me. My lawyer will take care of things here. I went back to rest first. " After finishing speaking, he turned and left without hesitation. The soldiers of the Marine Corps also began to retreat in an orderly manner. Wan Chongxin stepped forward and handed a business card to the two policemen, then said: "Mr. Police Officer, our lawyer will come to deal with the matter here soon. This is my business card. If you need our assistance, please call me." Jackson also stepped forward and handed over his own business card, which of course is his current business card on NBC TV, and said something. "Call me tomorrow if you have anything!" The young policeman looked at the backs of everyone leaving, and said to the middle-aged policeman: "Is that how they leave?" The middle-aged policeman looked at the crowd in the bar and said helplessly: "Otherwise? Can you keep them? It''s not bad for others to give you face and let a lawyer come forward." "Just the yellow man?" The middle-aged policeman glared at the young policeman and said: "You want to die so as not to implicate me, didn''t you notice the movement of the group of people just now? These are not bodyguards, but well-trained soldiers, you know? Looking at the aura of the leading young people, you should know that these people are not characters we can provoke. Send the people here to the hospital first! " I don''t know if it was because of the fight that made Fang Lang, who hadn''t experienced the bar style he imagined, feel very comfortable. Fang Lang didn''t expect that Jackson and Wan Chongxin would rush up to fight with him. Looking at them at this moment, they felt a lot more cordial. Patted the two of them on the shoulders, smiled and hugged them, said goodbye to them and returned to the hotel without saying anything. Fang Lang slept very soundly that night. At noon the next day, Wan Chongxin brought his lawyer to report the situation. Because Fang Lang did the whole thing first, Fang Lang was responsible for all the crimes. After all, there is no anti-racism law at this time. It is true that the other party provoked first, but it was Fang Lang who did it, so the responsibility fell on Fang Lang. However, the United States is a capitalist society! If you have money, you can have everything. In the end, after communication with the lawyer, the other party was compensated 10,000 US dollars, and the matter was settled. The one that hurts the most is the white man with the cracked balls. "Have you figured out the identity of the other party?" Fang Lang said that if he wanted to ruin the other party''s fortune, he would definitely not break his promise. $10,000 is nothing to Fang Lang, but this money is not so easy to get. "The boss has figured it out. The person you asked us to check is Richfield, and he is the boss of the Richfield Petroleum Company." Those who engage in oil are all big bosses! Now it was Fang Lang''s turn to be a little confused. If the other party is a big boss, how could this matter pass so easily? "Own an oil company? This is a big boss, you can make others shut up with 10,000 yuan!" After listening to Fang Lang''s words, Wan Chongxin and the lawyer said with strange expressions: "Boss, this so-called Richfield Petroleum Company is actually an oil exploration company, a small exploration company listed on the New York Stock Exchange. Starting from Richfield''s father, because he made his fortune after digging an oil field in Texas, there might be nothing if he continued to develop in Texas. As a result, this old Mr. Richfield, who did not know who he believed, left the land he bought in the Midland Basin, moved his position and went to Alaska to dig oil. Before the war, there have been more than ten years of exploration, but there has been no harvest, and the company''s funds have also been emptied. As a result, the war broke out and the exploration plan was forced to shelve. After the war, the old Mr. Richfield once again raised a sum of money, took the equipment and continued to go to Alaska for exploration. But the place they explored, it was inside the Arctic Circle! I don''t know what happened, but news came last month that old Mr. Richfield died in a place called Prudhoe Bay. Now its all right, no oil has been explored, and the companys last bit of funds has been poured in again, and now the Richfield Company is about to go bankrupt. The New York Stock Exchange issued a notice last week that the company is at risk of delisting, reminding investors to pay attention to the risks. Our Mr. Richfield was very unwilling, so we flew from Alaska to New York specially to save it. Unfortunately, I was rejected by the NYSE, so I was in a very bad mood. This happened only last night. " Hearing Wan Chongxin''s words, Fang Lang fell into deep thought. The two place names, Prudhoe Bay and Midland Basin, sound familiar! Soon he remembered a report he had read in later generations. It seemed that the top ten oil fields in the United States had these two place names! Could it be that these two oil fields have not been discovered yet? "So now it means that no oil fields have been found in these two places, right?" "Yes, the Richfield Company is now supported by the first oil well, and it is already unable to make ends meet. Therefore, there is no potential for any development at all. This is also the reason why the New York Stock Exchange issued a delisting risk warning. " Fang Lang said calmly: "Oh! Who else is in this guy''s family?" "That''s all he''s left with." At this time, Fang Lang was concerned, and nodded to show that he knew. It seems that Mr. Richfield is sitting on a golden mountain! So how should Jinshan change his surname to Fang? Fang Lang''s first thought was to use this conflict between himself and him to swallow the company in the name of revenge. Then invest in oil extraction yourself. It seems that Brazil is a country seriously short of oil! Although there are oil fields, it seems that oil is mainly imported. Thinking of this, Fang Lang didn''t hesitate, and directly called Mr. Morgan. "Mr. Morgan, good afternoon, I am Fang Lang!" "Haha, Fang, why are you calling when you have time! Are you asking about the stock swap? This matter may have to wait, because the board of directors has not yet unified their opinions!" Actually, Morgans board of directors has already agreed on the share swap between Universal Shipbuilding and Bell Labs. It''s just a negotiation! Whoever holds the initiative can get more, so the Morgan family wants to let the air go. See if Fang Lang will take the initiative to contact them. Unexpectedly, Fang Lang lost his composure so soon, and took the initiative to contact Morgan, which made Morgan decide to hang out with the other party to facilitate later bargaining. "Ah! I''m sorry, Mr. Morgan. It doesn''t matter about the stock exchange. It doesn''t matter if it succeeds or not. I don''t care. I''m looking for you this time to ask you something, I don''t know if it''s convenient for you. " Whatever you achieve, forget it if you dont. Shouldnt you be proactive? Why do you seem to be indifferent now? It was only then that Morgan remembered that Fang Lang did seem to have said that he did not lack funds to develop the shipyard! It seems that if it continues to procrastinate, not only will it not succeed in listing Global Shipbuilding, but the issue of the next share exchange will come to naught. "Oh! Tell me something." Fang Lang didn''t hide anything, and told the ins and outs of his conflict with Richfield in the bar last night. And said that he paid 10,000 US dollars in compensation for this. Compensation is a small matter, but face is a big matter. The cruel words I let go in that bastard''s ear last night must be fulfilled. "I did some research today, and the other party is called Richfield. It seems that there is a Richfield Petroleum Company, which was notified by the New York Stock Exchange last week that it is at risk of delisting. I want to operate through your investment bank! Swallow his company dry and tell him to get out of the company his father left behind. Wondering if I could do this little favor? " (end of this chapter) Chapter 155: the reality of annexation Chapter 155 The reality of annexation Morgan obviously didn''t expect that Fang Lang came to him for revenge on Richfield. After thinking about it, he asked: "If my understanding is correct, you want to acquire the Richfield Petroleum Company?" After all, he is a financier. After hearing Fang Lang''s revenge plan, the first thought in his heart was business. The powerful Universal Group launched a takeover war because the boss wants to retaliate against an oil company that is at risk of delisting. How can this be revenge? This is obviously a backdoor listing! Fang Lang heard Morgan''s words, so he didn''t understand what Morgan meant! smiled and said: "You can understand it this way." "What are you going to do with the acquisition?" Fang Lang understood what Morgan asked, so he could only pretend to be stupid: "Let Richfield wander the streets penniless!" Morgan is somewhat unconvinced that entrepreneurs like Fang Lang will initiate an acquisition for their own personal grievances. After all, it is not too easy to kill a person, why bother to target his company? "I mean what is this company going to do with it?" It seems that successful people are not easy! The reason why Fang Lang approached Morgan was because of this kind of thing, others are professionals. If I form a team to do this by myself, the time will be too rushed. Its not that its impossible to buy after the companys delisting, but that you can reduce your capital expenditure by manipulating the stock price when operating in the capital market. Its interesting to use other peoples money to complete the acquisition! Seeing Morgan directly asking the key point, Fang Lang smiled and said: "I haven''t thought about it yet, maybe I will go public through a backdoor, or I may continue to operate the company''s original exploration business." "Fang, we are friends. I will help you with this favor. The handling fee will be 10%. No matter what you plan to do with this company in the future, Morgan Group will take 10% of the shares." Seeing that Fang Lang was unwilling to tell the company''s future plans, Morgan didn''t struggle, and directly put forward his request. This means that no matter what you say, I can''t do you, but you can''t leave me if you are rich. "The Bell Labs, how many shares can you sell?" Fang Lang will not be led by the nose by Morgan. Just now Morgan was still saying that the board of directors had no results, so Fang Lang brought it up again. The meaning is obvious, we can play together, but you take advantage here, you have to compensate me in another place. Morgan smiled wryly, but did not deny it. "15% in exchange for 30% of Universal Shipbuilding''s shares." "Impossible, we still exchange shares according to market value." "How is it possible, Bell Labs only makes profits from patent fees, how to calculate the market value." The two quickly started haggling over the phone over the exchange of shares. Actually, Fang Lang really doesn''t like this. These things should be handled by the company''s professional team. However, he started the topic now, and it is impossible for him to give up directly. Finally, the two reached an agreement, and the two parties exchanged in equal proportions. According to 15% in exchange for 15% of the other party''s shares. Both said that they lost a lot, and they both felt that they had made a profit, but in fact, it will take time to prove who loses and who wins. "Since the negotiation is settled, how long will it take for Richfield to settle it?" Hearing Fang Lang''s helpless tone, Morgan smiled and said: "Of course within a week! Don''t worry! Morgan is a professional in this kind of thing." Richfield Company also has a small oil field producing oil in Texas, although after so many years of tossing, shareholders have lost confidence. The stock price has fallen to the bottom, but the assets still exist. According to Morgan''s valuation, the current market value of Richfield Company is at least worth more than 30 million US dollars. Fang Lang''s request is 10 million to take 60% of the company''s shares. Don''t think this is whimsical, the capital market is so magical. With the strength of the Morgan family, this business may make a net profit of more than 20 million US dollars. Now it has been prompted that there is a risk of delisting. If bad news is spread, the stock price will be further depressed. Accumulate at a low price, let Richfield pay to stabilize the stock price, and lock in Richfield. Continue to operate to lower the stock price, and Richfield will be dragged to death. Directly funded the acquisition of Richfield''s shares and kicked him out of the company. It is estimated that after Richfield sells his shares, he can only repay the loan. Then directly acquire the shares of major shareholders outside the market, who can reject the Morgan family in the financial market? Wait until you have enough shares in your hands, and let the wind out. Universal Group wants to acquire Ridgefield Company for a backdoor listing. The stock price absolutely soared directly. Next, the company changed hands, Morgan cashed out and left, perfect! Of course this is speculation, and the specific operation method still depends on professionals. And our target, Mr. Richfield, is still in the hospital and has not been discharged. After all, a broken **** cannot be recovered overnight. "Richard, have you investigated the information about that yellow-skinned monkey? I must kill him, definitely!" Richfield was snarling loudly at an elderly white man with gray hair. The gray-haired elderly white man seemed to be much calmer. He pressed Richfield''s shoulder with his hand and said: "Richfield, you have to calm down. Even if you want to take revenge, you have to restore your body first, and then catch him in front of you and torture him to death, right?" "No, I can''t take it anymore, I''m going to find someone now, and bring that **** to my bed, and I''ll finish him off with my own hands." For a man, there are only two testicles in total. If he loses one testicle, he may lose the capital to continue being a man. Such an injury is unacceptable to Richfield. After all, physical pain is still a small matter, but heart pain is a major matter. Now everyone knows that he is a lonely (egg) person. How to pass on the family in the future. Passing on the family line is something to talk about. Now Richfield is most worried about whether his younger brother will be able to stand up in the future. If his younger brother lost the ability to fight due to muscle weakness, then Richfield felt that he might as well die. "Richfield, I have already found out the identity of this man. It is very tricky. I think we''d better have a long-term plan. We must find a way to hit the first blow, otherwise we may not have a chance to launch a second attack." The white-haired old man obviously found some information. "I don''t care who he is, I want his life. Isn''t it easy to find a killer now? He has more than ten bodyguards, so I will find thirty gunmen. I don''t believe he can escape." Indeed, as Richfield said, it is very easy to find and buy a murderer. Many of the retired American soldiers did not find suitable jobs. For the soldiers who regard killing as their job, it is nothing at all for someone to pay to kill a foreigner. According to what I learned from the police station, this person is a Chinese-Brazilian who has a very large industry in the United States. A few days ago, the container system that the newspaper desperately bragged about was his industry. The name of the company is Global Group. These are only at the capital level. I have also heard from some friends that this person has a lot of energy in the US military. Finally, there is an unconfirmed news. " When the white-haired old man said this, his voice slowly lowered. Seeing the worried eyes of the white-haired old man, Richfield said indifferently: "Just say what you have, can he still be the son of God? A Brazilian Chinese, what to worry about. This is me, Americ, who won''t even turn a wave if he is killed. " "It is said that he is not actually a simple businessman, but his real identity is the captain of the Brazilian navy. And the last time he was protected in the bar was not his bodyguards, but his soldiers. " In any case, he is also the boss of a listed company. In a capitalist society, money can indeed sell a lot of things, and of course intelligence can also be sold. After hearing what the white-haired old man said, Richfield was taken aback, and said in disbelief: "are you serious?" Seeing the white-haired old man smiled wryly and nodded. Richfield was quiet for a while, and suddenly said even more frantically: "What''s the matter? He is a Brazilian soldier, not an American soldier. Even if he is an American soldier, I can kill him. God can''t stop me." The crazy Richfield obviously frightened the white-haired old man. After all, not everyone is willing to accompany a madman to go crazy. "You''d better calm down, Richfield. Now our company has become precarious, and if something goes wrong, it may go bankrupt and liquidate. If you want to attack such a person at this time, we may usher in an investigation by the FBI. Once word gets out, our company may never have another chance. This is your father''s hard work all his life! " "I don''t care, I just want him to die, Richard, help me get in touch right away, I don''t want to wait for a moment." The white-haired old man named Richard stood up and shook his head: "I''m sorry, Mr. Richfield, I''m just the security captain of the exploration team, I''m not the killer leader, so I''m sorry I can''t help you." "What? Richard, you dare to refuse my order, don''t you want to do it?" Richfield obviously didn''t expect that his father''s loyal subordinate would refuse to carry out his order just after his father passed away. He didn''t even think about it, he was just doing a job to support his family. You asked others to take your own wealth and life to avenge you, what a face you must have! If it is an armed gang like a gangster, everyone is desperate to give a high bounty, and some people may be willing to take risks for the money. But someone else is just a security captain for oil exploration. If you ask him to assassinate a colonel and officer from another country for your personal revenge, you will only agree to it if you have a trick! Nowadays Americans have not officially become the world''s policeman, and ordinary people have not yet developed a character that is not afraid of anything. In later generations, the CIA, which often conducts state subversion operations and assassinates leaders of other countries, has not yet been formally established at this time. The predecessor of the CIA, the US Strategic Intelligence Agency, was disbanded by President Adu after the war. became a central intelligence group responsible for coordinating and collating intelligence information. During this period, the United States has just become the leader of the capitalist world, and its prestige and confidence are still slowly being cultivated. (end of this chapter) Chapter 156: visit bell Chapter 156 Visit Bell The white-haired old man Richard is obviously a very thoughtful old man. After hearing Richfield''s questioning, he just smiled and said: "Mr. Richfield, I''m just an ordinary security guard! I don''t know any killer organization, so I really can''t help you find the person you want. I heard that you were plotting to kill foreign military officers, so I should have gone to the police station to report you. But, given how many years I''ve worked for your father, I can pretend I haven''t heard anything. I came to see you today because I wanted to tell you that the Alaska exploration team was unable to continue working due to the severe cold. If you want to apply, go back to the Texas headquarters to rest. Hope you approve! But now your situation is obviously not good enough to handle these official duties, I will apply with General Manager Rayer. " Richfield, who was originally rejected by Richard, turned pale. Now that he heard that Richard didn''t ask him to apply, he went directly to the company''s general manager, Reyel. My heart became even more angry. roared loudly: "Don''t mention this **** Reyel in front of me, if it weren''t for him, how could our Ridgefield company become what it is today, If he hadnt always said that there are big oil fields in Alaska, our company wouldnt be dragged down. " "Mr. Richfield, there are no outsiders here, you don''t have to put all the responsibility on Mr. Rayer, don''t you know what the truth is? Have you not calculated how much money you have squandered in the company over the years? If it weren''t for Mr. Rayer''s hard work, the company would have gone bankrupt. As for the large oil fields in Alaska, that is the common understanding of your father and Mr. Rayer. You cannot blame Mr. Rayer for all the crimes because the oil fields have not been discovered yet. " "You, Richard, you bastard, you ungrateful bastard, my father treats you so well. I can''t think of you being such a person." Mr. Richfield was clearly speechless by the white-haired old man in front of him. Seeing his angry expression on the verge of going crazy, Richard shook his head. It feels a little boring. After all, this second-generation ancestor who took over the company in a hurry after the old Mr. Richfield passed away is indeed a **** without any ability. From Richard''s point of view, the company is not far from going bankrupt when it is handed over to him. "Mr. Richfield, you yourself said that it was your father who was kind to me, not you. Your father was kind to me, and I repay him with my loyalty and work. But, why do you think I should treat you like your father? " Now Richfield was also a little stupid, and for a while he didn''t know how to answer his words. Can only watch Richard leave. Richard, who walked to the door, added without looking back: "Mr. Richfield, let me remind you that it is your personal freedom to take any action, but please don''t drag the Richfield Company into the water." In Richard''s eyes, Richfield is a worthless second-generation ancestor, incompetent, arrogant, arrogant, and brainless. From the police station, he has learned that the cause of the incident was because of Richfield''s racially discriminatory remarks. What he didn''t understand was why he wanted to provoke a person who had no grievances with him. Hearing Richard''s words, Richfield''s mind, which was still a little confused, immediately woke up, and roared loudly: "This is my Ridgefield company, I can do whatever I want, you can control it? You bastard, you are fired. Get out of here." His roar quickly attracted the attention of the doctor, and he hurried forward to check. "Mr. Richfield, please keep your emotions stable. The wound that was just stitched up was torn by you again, and it is bleeding now. I will stop the bleeding for you now, please don''t move." Hearing that his wound was bleeding, Richfield could only calm down. Bell Labs in New Jersey ushered in a new wave of investigation groups, headed by a young man of Chinese descent in his twenties. The building area of ??Bell Labs is very large, similar to an industrial area, and it is divided into many different laboratories. As one of the new shareholders, Fang Lang''s purpose of coming here today is very simple, just to come and see what the greatest laboratory since the 20th century is like. "Welcome to Bell Labs, Mr. Fang. I am Howard, the head of the lab. Thank you very much for your recognition of Bell Labs." Howard obviously already knew that the young man in front of him was one of the new shareholders of Bell Labs. "It is my honor to be able to visit Bell Labs. In order not to delay everyone''s work. Can you show me a brief look?" Fang Lang still respects scientists very much. As a layman, it is better not to disturb other people''s research work casually. But Fang Lang soon regretted that he shouldn''t have come, because there are few things he can understand here. Fang Lang turned around a lot and felt that everything was in the clouds and fog, and he didn''t know what everyone was doing? I want to express my opinion and show that I have no chance for higher education. It seems that there is no chance now! Don''t leave an uneducated impression on people! Just when he was about to give up completely, he finally saw several TV sets in a laboratory, and several experimenters were doing research in it. Cleared his throat, Fang Lang said to Howard who had been introducing him: "Mr. Howard, is this a TV station?" Howard was relieved when he heard Fang Lang finally speak out. The boss didn''t speak the whole time, thinking that there was something about the laboratory that made him dissatisfied! This is the father of the funder. Only when he is satisfied can he receive the investment! If he likes some projects, it would be great to allocate a separate sponsorship. "Yes, Mr. Fang, this is a laboratory dedicated to the research of electronic picture tubes. What we are experimenting with now is electronic picture tubes." "Oh? Are you going to study color TV?" "Yes, Mr. Fang, of course it is not only about how to make the image into color, but we also need to reduce the problems of screen distortion and reflection." Fang Lang heard this, I know this! Although I dont know how to do it, I know what the TV will look like in the future! Current TVs use spherical picture tubes, so the screen of the TV is like one side of a ball. From the front, it looks like a glass ball in a wooden box. This is completely different from the right-angled screens we saw later. The current right-angle is just that the box where the TV is installed is at a right angle. Fang Lang didn''t know the specific working principle of the TV, nor did he know how the picture tube worked and where it was installed. But this does not prevent him from expressing his opinion. "I don''t understand how you can turn it into color, but if you want to keep it from being distorted and reflective, I think you can turn the screen into a flat right-angle display like a movie screen, which should solve this problem! " Because he didn''t understand the working principle, Fang Lang was talking about the curvature of the display screen. The engineer who saw someone visiting outside and looked over was taken aback when he heard Fang Lang''s words. clapped his hands and said: "That''s right! The plane is at right angles, just make the picture tube a plane at right angles! Sir, thank you very much. If the experiment is successful, you will be the biggest contributor." Howard was taken aback when he saw the engineer''s reaction. He didn''t expect the young man''s casual words to let the engineer find a new research direction. Sometimes doing research is like this, and a new invention may appear in a sudden flash of inspiration. TV picture tube technology did change from a spherical tube to a planar right-angle tube later, but this technology did not appear until the 1990s. Now because of Fang Lang''s words, I don''t know if it will appear in advance, and Fang Lang is not sure. However, Fang Lang is very satisfied with the **** he pretended to be today. Seeing Howard looking at him in surprise, Fang Lang said lightly: "That''s just what I said casually. I''m very happy to provide you with a new inspiration. Please work hard. When the experiment is successful, I will fully support the production." Originally, Fang Lang came here this time to invest in several key projects, but Howard told him that Bell Labs focuses on R&D and innovation. It''s not that the product makes money by researching that product, which makes Fang Lang feel cheated. No wonder Morgan would agree to swap shares with his own Universal Shipbuilding. "Unexpectedly, Mr. Fang is also a talent in scientific research. No wonder you are willing to invest in our Bell Labs." "I''ve won the award, I''ve won the award, I just said that casually." At this moment, Fang Lang felt that Howard in front of him was much more pleasing to the eye. In fact, what Fang Lang wants to see most is the invention experiment of transistors. It''s a pity that I visited the laboratory but couldn''t understand it at all, so I could only shake my head and give up. But he is not in a hurry, because next year, that is, in 1947, the world''s first transistor will be manufactured, and Fang Lang is not in a hurry for a while. Fang Lang visited the mobile phone technology that will also be researched next year. Also met many future Nobel Prize winners. This made Fang Lang feel that this trip was very successful. Everything can be done naturally, there is no need to force it. After finishing his trip to Bell Labs, Fang Lang took all his entourage directly by plane, crossed the Atlantic Ocean, and came to London. Fang Lang''s visit to the UK this time can only be regarded as a passing transit, and his destination is Germany. But since he came to Europe, Fang Lang must inform his friend Reinhardt. So, when Reinhardt knew that Fang Lang was going to settle in London, he naturally said that he must give him a chance to entertain him. At this time, the traffic on the roads in London is very lively. However, there are many roadside buildings on both sides of the road that have not been repaired. Some buildings have been completely pushed down, and houses are being rebuilt on the flat ground. A lively scene of post-war reconstruction. Linehardt''s residence in London is in Mayfair, a three-story building facing the street. "Linehardt, I didn''t expect your residence in London to be so low-key! I thought you were going to show me a big manor in London today!" "Haha. If you want to see the manor, I can show you Buckingham Palace!" (end of this chapter) Chapter 157: Bankrupt Aston Martin Chapter 157 Aston Martin Bankruptcy Hearing Reinhardt''s words, Fang Lang shook his head helplessly, knowing that the other party was just laughing, and Buckingham Palace has not yet opened to the public. If you want to see it, you can only look at it on the road outside. What''s so interesting about it. If you can go in and live in it, it''s almost the same. However, after thinking about it, it is better not to make such a request to an Englishman. "Forget about Buckingham Palace, I''m just here for a transit, why bother!" "I was just about to ask you! What are you doing in Germany at this time?" "Of course it''s to pick up leaks! No. It''s investment!" Linehardt looked at Fang Lang''s expression seriously before saying: "Are you serious? Germany is already smashed, what else is there to invest in?" "You British aristocrats, of course, don''t look down on such scraps, but we in Brazil are poor and white! This time I went to Germany mainly to investigate two projects, medicine and automobiles, and military manufacturing." "If you want to invest in these industries, we should also have one!" Hearing what Reinhardt said, Fang Lang was taken aback. Of course I know that the Daying Empire has these. But the cost of investing in the UK must be higher than the current cost in Germany! Is there any famous brand of medicine in the UK? GlaxoSmithKline does not even know where it is now! There are many car brands and the technology is very advanced, but the trade unions in the UK are so **** up. Many excellent car factories have been dragged to death by the unions. But now the British trade unions are not as **** up as later generations. It seems that the British auto industry can also be considered! If not, set up a research and development institution in the UK, and produce in Brazil to reduce costs. Although the military industry cannot do as well as the United States and Germany! But there are also several very powerful companies, such as Rolls-Royce, one of the world''s three largest aero engine suppliers. The full name is Rolls-Royce, which is the company that produces the famous Rolls-Royce cars. This company was mainly engaged in the design, production and sales of automobiles before World War II, but it was also engaged in the manufacture of engines. After the end of World War II, the production of aero-engines became one of the company''s main businesses. However, this enterprise was taken over and nationalized by the government for a period of time due to losses. This kind of key national enterprise in the UK, Fang Lang dare not get involved! "Are you cheaper than Germany?" Fang Lang asked the core question directly. "Ah! This? I don''t know about this. But there is a company that I think should be very cheap now. You can think about it." Hearing Reinhardt say this, Fang Lang was really interested. "What do you think." "How to say this! I don''t know if you have heard of the car brand Aston Martin." Reinhardt said a name with some guilt. Aston Martin is Bond''s car, how come I haven''t heard of it! But the main product of this company seems to be a high-performance coupe! The market share of this thing is not large, so there is no money to be made! "I''ve heard of it! What''s the matter?" The company went bankrupt during the war! If you want to get into the car business, maybe you could consider buying this factory. Fang Lang glanced at Reinhardt strangely and said: "Linehardt, are you still responsible for attracting investment for the UK now? Besides, didn''t you say that your family is not short of money? You can easily get rid of this bankrupt factory by yourself!" As a British naval aristocrat, Reinhardt''s family owns a large industry. If they want to save a car factory, Fang Lang believes that he has the ability to do it himself. Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Reinhardt said awkwardly: "I also raised this topic with my family, but they rejected it. The current situation of the family business is not ideal. During the war, the family''s shipyard and aircraft factory were originally the key bombing targets of the Germans. At that time, the countrys military needed it, and it was able to receive orders continuously. But now there are no orders, and the survival of the company is a problem. The shipyard can also cooperate with your Global Shipbuilding to produce ships, but the aircraft factory has no orders at all, so it is starting to transform and develop large-capacity transport aircraft, which requires a lot of capital investment. So, my proposal to acquire Aston Martin was directly rejected by the family! " "I''ll go, you kid said you want to entertain me, so you just wait here for me?" After listening to Reinhardt''s words, Fang Lang immediately realized that there is no need to entertain himself! So it was waiting for him here! Linehard smiled embarrassedly and said: "I heard that you are going to Europe for inspection! Believe me, Aston Martin is definitely a very good car brand and will not let you down." "Tell me honestly, why do you want to save this factory? It''s not because you want to see the factory owner''s daughter! You pick up girls and let me pay? Shit! You are really talented." Thinking that Reinhardt might ask himself to help save the factory because he fell in love with the girl, Fang Lang blurted out a direct curse. "How is it possible! I am really a fan of this factory. I own two Aston Martins. I told you that in 1939, Aston Martin designed an Atom concept. car. With automatic transmission and independent suspension, do you know how advanced he is? It''s a pity that it''s closed down now. If I don''t save him, maybe I will never have the chance to see it mass-produced one day. " This really shocked Fang Lang. He didn''t expect to have an automatic transmission at this time. He remembered that most of the vehicles at this time now have a three-speed manual transmission. Of course, the three-speed refers to the forward gear, and if the reverse gear is added, there will be four gears. Some models of the US military have four forward gears. If Aston Martin really has such car-making technology, can it digest and absorb these technologies? "Did his engine and gearbox be produced by himself?" "Of course! Aston Martin started out as a racing car. It must use its own technology for the engine and gearbox! In the 1922 French Grand Prix, it set a double world record for the speed and endurance of the car. " Originally, what Fang Lang wanted was a car that was durable, fuel-efficient and cheap. When he heard Reinhardt introduce a performance sports car like Aston Martin, he refused. But if he really has a full set of technical strength, Fang Lang will really start to be tempted. Looking at Fang Lang who was in deep thought, Reinhardt was overjoyed, knowing that Fang Lang had been moved, and hurriedly hit the railway while it was hot: "Just talking about it may not be clear enough, why don''t I take you to the factory to have a look!" "Are you serious?" You agreed to come and take a rest? Talk about treating yourself! Not long after I got off the plane, you actually want to take yourself to see some car factory, isn''t that a bit too much? "Of course it''s not far away. It''s just in Gayton, Walkershire. I''ll be there soon. By the way, let me let you experience my Aston Martin driving experience." Seeing Reinhardt''s excited expression, Fang Lang felt that he was definitely fooled. This kid had planned to wait for him here! "I can see it. You didn''t let me rest for any reason at all, and you said you would treat me well. You are a liar." "Haha Fang, you can''t say that, we are all friends, and showing you around the factory is also entertaining you, right!" In this situation, what else can Fang Lang say, he can only shake his head helplessly, and go out to get in the car. But to be honest, Fang Lang really thought it was very good when he drove Reinhardt''s Aston Martin, although it couldn''t compare with modern cars. However, it is much more advanced than most cars of this era. Of course, the comfort of riding as a coupe still needs to be improved. Driving such a coupe and looking at the scenery of Britain outside the car, Fang Lang still felt very comfortable. However, Fang Lang''s good mood was soon ruined again. "Leinhardt, didn''t you say it''s not far away? We''ve been driving for almost three hours now, how far is it?" "Don''t worry! Fang, it''s coming soon, we''ll be there soon." "You have repeated this sentence three times! Tell me honestly, how far is it?" "I really won''t lie to you this time, trust me, it will be here soon!" Fang Lang looked at Reinhardt''s sincere eyes, thinking that he had been driving for three hours, and even if he went back now, it would take three hours to return to London, so he had to keep driving. As a result, we drove for another hour and a half before finally arriving at a small village. Yes, the village. "Is this the factory you told me about?" "Yes, Fang, don''t look at this place as inconspicuous. But this is indeed the birthplace of Aston Martin." Linehardt pointed to the red brick factory road not far away. Since everyone has come, it is impossible for Fang Lang to go back without looking at it. When he came to the factory gate, Fang Lang found that there were already two middle-aged people waiting at the factory gate. Fang Lang glared at Reinhardt. Didn''t you prepare for it, and others would wait at the gate early? It seems that I haven''t seen you for a while, Reinhardt learns badly very quickly! "Fang, this is Bertelli, Aston Martin''s model design director, This is Renwick, Aston Martin''s powertrain engineer. " After Fang Lang shook hands with the two of them, he walked in under the leadership of the two. Entering the factory and seeing Fang Lang, he was a little disappointed, because it was far from the hundreds of thousands of square meters of factory Fang Lang had in mind. In addition to a passable red brick factory building, there is no other factory area in this factory. Looking at the sealed machinery and equipment in the factory, Fang Lang knew that there was nothing interesting about it. "I heard from Leonhardt that you made a concept car with an automatic transmission and independent suspension? I don''t know if I can see it." "Of course, Mr. Fang, please follow me." Bertelli pointed to the depths of the factory building. Soon several people came to the Atom concept car, and Bertelli reached out and pulled up the dust cloth covering the body. What catches the eye is a slightly rounded and streamlined vehicle, and the large grille has the appearance of the iconic big mouth of the later Aston Martin. Two round headlights, like two **** eyes. Seeing it at first glance, Fang Lang understood why Reinhardt would go to such lengths to get him mass-produced. This exterior design is definitely quite advanced in this era, not to mention that this car is also equipped with an automatic transmission and independent suspension. (end of this chapter) Chapter 158: Acquisition of Aston Martin Chapter 158 Acquisition of Aston Martin Looking at the gentlemanly coupe in front of him, Fang Lang knew that he couldn''t leave today. "Did you design and manufacture his automatic transmission yourself?" "Yes, Mr. Fang. Believe me, the technology of this car is definitely very advanced." Renwick promised to arrive with full confidence. "Where''s the engine?" "It is also a 4.0-liter V6 engine designed and manufactured by ourselves." "Are all technical patents in the factory?" "Yes." "Do you have inline four-cylinder engine technology?" "Yes, Mr. Fang, but if we use a four-cylinder engine, we cannot achieve the performance we are after." Since the factory has all the independent intellectual property rights, Fang Lang no longer hesitates. In Fang Lang''s eyes, this factory has great development potential, but these people blindly pursue the best performance. but gave up the largest ordinary family car market. A car factory The car you manufacture has outstanding performance and can win the championships of major car races. Without sales, it will be difficult for you to develop and grow. I want to know, how much money would it take to fully acquire this factory? Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Reinhardt jumped up happily, waved his fist and said: "Fang, you are such a good brother! Don''t worry! You will definitely not suffer. Now they are bankrupt and all assets are mortgaged to the bank. I asked the bank for the price, and they quoted two million pounds. I''m sure we can get another 1.8 million if we talk about it. " According to the current exchange rate, one pound is about four dollars. In other words, Fang Lang only needs to pay $7.2 million to win this Aston Martin factory. If its just the factory area, of course its not worth the price. But what Fang Lang is really interested in is not the factory, but the technology patents and technology accumulation he owns. Since Aston Martin can produce such an advanced car, it is definitely no problem for them to lower the process requirements and design a civilian car that meets Fang Lang''s requirements. Hearing the price quoted by Reinhardt, Fang Lang nodded without hesitation and said: "Yes, Reinhardt, you can come forward and negotiate the price as low as possible." After speaking, he looked at Bertelli and Renwick who looked very excited. "With all due respect, the two of you have outstanding technical strength in model research and development, but you obviously lack the ability to manage a brand. Therefore, I have to say some things first. After this factory is acquired by me, I will definitely adjust the business strategy. And you two, I want you to specialize in the development of new technologies. This factory will become an Aston Martin research and development center. We can find excellent designer teams all over the world to develop the most advanced and cutting-edge automotive technology. In order to ensure that we can always maintain innovative research and development capabilities, I will use 10% of the new company''s annual profit as your research and development funds. " Bertelli hesitated after hearing Fang Lang''s words: "Mr. Fang, how can we ensure that the new company will be profitable?" Fang Lang smiled and said: "This will be your first mission after the acquisition." Fang Lang is unwilling to disclose his business plan in advance before the acquisition is completed. Building a professional R&D department to conduct research and development of new technologies is Fang Lang''s inspiration from Bell Labs. In order to ensure that his industry has continuous innovation capabilities, Fang Lang plans to implement this idea in his entire industry. Now that he has decided to win Aston Martin, Fang Lang does not hesitate. Returned to London with Reinhardt again, notified his team to form an acquisition team, and started negotiations with the bank with the help of Reinhardt. I dont know if the Reinhardt family has enough influence in the UK, or because the bank also wants to quickly get rid of the burden of Aston Martin. Because Aston Martin is in a state of bankruptcy, liquidation and suspension of business, the acquisition went very smoothly. Finally, Fang Lang bought the company at a price of 1.75 million pounds. Through the relationship of the Reinhardt family, Fang Lang recruited a professional manager named Eppel Barron in the UK. "Mr. Barron, in the future, Aston Martin in the UK will only need to research new technologies and develop new models of cars full-time. Your first job is to go to Brazil to build a new car assembly line factory." "Bertelli, the first task I give you is to develop a family car. Now Aston Martin is a two-door version. This cant enter the daily life of ordinary people. I require this car to meet the travel needs of a family of five. No need for four-wheel drive, no need for large displacement. The focus is on comfort, fuel economy, safety, better handling, and lower cost. Can it be done? " "Boss, don''t we continue to develop Atom?" Bertelli is clearly still obsessed with his Atom. "Let''s put it this way! My business idea is to fine-tune the car market. The high-end model is still Aston Martin, which is mainly responsible for high-performance coupe models. Mainly focus on luxury, customization, high-end, speed, and performance, and maintain its high-end brand image by participating in major automobile competitions. In order to protect Aston Martin''s high-end image, we need to establish another brand to occupy the market, obtain profits, and support Aston Martin''s high-tech research and development. This model can be characterized as a civilian model. Civilian models occupy the market and make profits with their practicality and low price. Can you see what I mean? " The company team sitting here suddenly realized at this moment. Bertelli quickly said: "Boss, I understand what you mean, I will complete the research and development of the new model as soon as possible!" "I suggest that you quickly recruit enough R&D personnel, because I don''t just want to develop this model. In addition to developing a five-seat civilian model for home use, I also need you to organize manpower to develop two models of off-road vehicles and pickups based on Willys Jeep. It will appear in the market as a tool cart. Believe me, this type of model will quickly occupy the market in the Americas. They need durable leather, strong power, easy maintenance, and low failure rate. This kind of vehicle may appear in farms and wilderness, so it requires four-wheel drive and strong off-road capability. Understand? " "Boss, we understand! Soon we will establish a dedicated research team to develop the model you mentioned." Since the boss has explained the company''s business strategy, of course everyone knows how to work. Next, the company team began to build rapidly, and soon everyone began to perform their duties and get busy according to Fang Lang''s plan. At this time, in the Morgan Stanley Building in New York, Morgan was looking at the middle-aged man across the desk. "Mr. Rayer, I don''t know at this time, you came all the way from Texas to New York to find me. Is there something going on?" The middle-aged mans haggard face, after hearing Mr. Morgans question knowingly asked, he didnt mind, and smiled wryly: "Mr. Morgan, I understand that your company is now acquiring shares in Richfield Corporation. As the largest investment bank in the United States, it is my honor to see our small company. We have no ability and no reason to refuse your acquisition. I take the liberty of visiting today to represent the workers of the company and ask how you will deal with the employees of our company after you complete the acquisition. " Morgan looked at the middle-aged man in front of him who seemed to be waiting for the judgment of fate: "Mr. Rayer, I''m very sorry! Actually, I don''t know either!" Reyer obviously didn''t expect Mr. Morgan to answer him like this, and he didn''t know what to say for a while. "I heard that Mr. Rayer has a high prestige in the company. The employees are convinced of you, right?" "Mr. Morgan, you are too proud! I am just a manager of the company. What everyone believes is not me, but my position." "This is different from what I have learned! As far as I know, speaking in your company is better than Mr. Richfield!" "Sir, don''t worry! If my existence will affect your follow-up arrangements for employees, I am willing to resign. I only hope that you can let everyone keep this job." "No, no, Mr. Reyer, you misunderstood, I mean no malice. I just want to say that you are a very capable professional manager, and I appreciate you very much. I wonder if you are interested in working in a different working environment! " Reyel looked up at Morgan with a look of surprise. He didn''t expect Morgan to want to work for him. "Don''t be surprised! Mr. Reyer, I have investigated your company''s situation. In fact, before the old Mr. Richfield passed away, the company was already in desperation, wasn''t it? However, you still rely on your excellent management ability to stabilize the hearts of employees and let everyone face difficulties together. In addition, I personally came forward to get a few not small investments, and continued to support the exploration work of the old Mr. Richfield. Even after the old Mr. Richfield passed away, you are still doing your best to maintain the normal operation of the company. I heard that Mr. Richfield Jr. hated you very much, and expressed several times that he would fire you, but you still did not abandon him. I have to say that I am impressed by your devotion to Mr. Richfield. " Hearing Mr. Morgan''s evaluation of himself, Reyel shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Mr. Morgan, I think you have misunderstood. I am not loyal to Mr. Richfield. I am loyal to Richfield Company. This company is the one I watched him grow up. I have worked for this company most of my life, and if I leave this company, I don''t know where I should go. My original idea was to prepare to work for this company for a lifetime, and I firmly believe that we will be able to achieve success. But now that old Mr. Richfield is dead, alas, Mr. Richfield! So I came here today to know what the future of us people will be like. " "Okay! Looks like Mr. Reyer doesn''t want to come and work for me. Regarding the future of your company, I really have no way to answer you. Because it is not me who actually bought your company, but Universal Group. " "Universal Group? That Mr. Fang''s Universal Group who had a conflict with Mr. Richfield? They don''t want to revenge Mr. Richfield!" Seeing Mr. Morgan nodding, Reyel''s heart was gloomy. If this Universal Group made a move to retaliate against Mr. Richfield, then the future of these people like myself is really hard to say. Wait a minute, if the boss of Universal Group is a very vindictive person, will his employees also be implicated? (end of this chapter) Chapter 159: girl on the side of the road Chapter 159 The girl who fell on the side of the road Mr. Morgan smiled and said as if he had seen through Reyel''s thoughts: "You don''t really think they bought your company out of revenge for a small role like Richfield, do you? If you think this way, you are underestimating Fang. This guy is not an easy character. He will not be angry and start a teacher. I think he may have just come along for the ride. " Looking at Reyel who was full of question marks, Morgan smiled, picked up a book at hand and said: "Never mind, I''ve only been studying "The Art of War" recently. Do not worry! From what I know about him, he will never buy your company for no reason! If he really wants revenge on Richfield! That **** didn''t know it was rotting and moldy in that corner. " "You mean Mr. Fang, you will continue to drill oil, right?" "This is just my personal guess, don''t worry! In the end, I will retain 10% of the shares of this new company, and I will intercede for you." "Thank you so much! Then I wonder if Mr. Morgan can make an appointment for me to meet Mr. Fang. I hope to meet Mr. Fang. I have some bad news to tell him. " Morgan heard Rayel''s words, looked at him suspiciously and said: "Oh? What do you mean by not so good news?" "This. I received a message that someone might want to harm Mr. Fang!" "Haha. You are not talking about Mr. Richfield looking for the shooter!" Reyel stared wide-eyed and said with some scars: "Did you know that too?" "Haha. You should ask who else doesn''t know about this matter. That idiot was blatantly clamoring around looking for the shooter. The whole of New York City is about to find out. " "Did Mr. Fang know this too?" "I didn''t bother to talk to him just now! With Richfield''s IQ, his company will soon be acquired by someone. Anyone who is a little smarter knows that this kid is going to go bankrupt, and this business will not receive any money at all. Moreover, the Chinese gangs in New York have already targeted him. What you should remind is that Richfield should be careful, maybe before he is discharged from the hospital, the Chinese gangsters will take action to get rid of him. " After all, he is the son of old Richfield, and Reyel is still a little worried that Richfield will be killed. hurriedly asked: "Why?" "Why else? Fang''s family and the largest Chinese gang are now cooperating to immigrate! At this time, if someone runs out on their territory and blatantly wants to kill their partners. What do you think they will do? " Hearing what Morgan revealed, Reyel got up in a panic and said: "Ah! I''m sorry, Mr. Morgan, I have to take my leave first. This news is so shocking that I need to persuade Mr. Richfield immediately. Hope he can stop this stupid idea immediately. " Morgan waved his hands indifferently: "I don''t think you need to waste your efforts in vain. If this stupid Mr. Richfield really listened to your advice, he wouldn''t let the company go to where it is today. I heard that he hates you very much. If you remind him, it might irritate him even more. " "But, after all, he is the son of old Mr. Richfield!" After speaking, Reyel left Morgan''s office without looking back. Morgan looked at the back of Reyel leaving, and suddenly thought, this guy might not deliberately want to provoke Richfield! London, England. "Fang, you are the owner of Aston Martin now, can''t you buy an Aston Martin car yourself? Why are you taking my car out for a drive. " "Aren''t you talking nonsense? I won''t stay in London for a long time, so I bought my own car and put it here to make ashes? Besides, in order to realize your dream, I have already spent huge sums of money to buy the entire Aston Martin. Cant I still drive your car for a ride? If there is a girl, do you think you have a chance to go out for a ride with me? It''s your pleasure you know that? " "Okay! You are right! Then please take the girl out for a ride in the future! I don''t want to go out for a ride with you in the winter! The ground is frozen and accidents are easy, you know? " "You have to trust my skills. Hey! Wait, did someone fall down somewhere? It''s such a cold day, don''t be frozen to death on the road. Let''s go and have a look." "Oh! There have been a lot of things like this recently, we can''t save them, so let''s forget it!" "That''s not okay, it''s not my style of doing things. I can save one and save the other!" After finishing speaking, Fang Lang parked the car directly on the side of the road, came to the figure who had just fallen to the ground, and squatted down to take a look. It turned out to be a very beautiful sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl, dressed very shabby. This looks a bit familiar! Have you seen it somewhere? But at this time, Fang Lang didn''t think too much, and reached out to check the girl''s breath. Its okay, I still have gas. Bending down to pick up the girl without hesitation, Reinhardt said: "Hurry up, come and drive, we''ll take this girl to the hospital, she''s still alive." "I said Fang, our car is a two-seater, it can''t hold so many people at all." Seeing Reinhardt''s reluctance, Fang Lang stepped forward and kicked his car door and said: "Then you go down, take a taxi and come to me. I''ll take this girl to the hospital for a checkup first." Linehardt stared at Fang Lang dumbfounded and said: "You kicked me out of the car on such a cold day, you bastard!" Facing Fang Lang''s firm gaze, Reinhardt finally opened the car door helplessly and walked out. Inadvertently glanced at the girl in Fang Lang''s arms. "Hey! She''s still a beauty! How about you driving and I''ll hug her." Looking at Reinhardt''s eyes, Fang Lang didn''t understand what he meant, so he couldn''t help but poohed: "Get out, get out, and go away. The other girls are still underage! Get out of the car, I''m going to take him to the hospital." Seeing that Fang Lang had put the little girl in the passenger seat, he closed the door with a "bang" and walked towards the driver''s seat. Reinhardt shouted in dissatisfaction: "Hey, hey. Let me tell you, Fang, isn''t it a little too much for you to act like this!" Fang Lang got into the cab without looking back and said: "Human life is at stake. How can you forget your righteousness for sex? You bastard, if you don''t take a taxi, just follow the car!" Then he drove directly to the hospital, leaving Reinhardt alone in the wind. Fortunately, the two didn''t really just go out together, and the guard''s vehicle quickly followed up not far away. Fang Lang galloped all the way in a hurry, came to the hospital, and said to the nurse at the door: "Miss Nurse, help me find a doctor, this little girl suddenly fell down on the road for some reason." The nurse took a look at Fang Lang''s attire, as well as the vehicles parked outside the door, and then slowly stepped forward and said: "Come with me!" He led Fang Lang to a doctor''s office. "What malnutrition? Hungry?" Fang Lang was taken aback by the results of the doctor''s examination. "Yes, this girl is 1.7 meters tall and weighs only 90. She is so thin, she must be malnourished!" "Then what to do!" "Give him some glucose first! Just rest for a while, and let him eat on time when he goes back." Soon Reinhardt also walked in. "How about it?" Fang Lang looked up and saw Reinhardt smiled and said: "Fortunately, I''m hungry!" "Then what are you going to do?" "Let''s talk about it when she wakes up!" Audrey Catherine Ruston felt that she had a very long dream. When she was six years old, her father chose to run away from home because of a disagreement with her mother. Leaving me and my mother to depend on each other, and my mother sent me to Mislidon School for my own future. After graduating, I went to the Ahnheim Conservatory of Music in the Netherlands to study ballet. Everything was beautiful. But the war broke out, because someone rumored that the uncle''s family was Jewish, which led to the execution of the uncle who was a baron, and all the property in the family was confiscated. My mother and I were short of food and clothing. We often ate tulip bulbs and drank a lot of water to fill our stomachs. Because I like ballet, I didnt give up even if I was poor enough to wear the most difficult wooden dancing shoes. also raised funds for the Dutch guerrillas through ballet performances, and even used his identity as a child to pass information to the Dutch guerrillas. Finally, the war was over, and I was already seventeen years old. My mother and I brought the hundred pounds we had saved from frugality, and came to the UK to study ballet at the Mary Lambert Ballet School. But after paying the tuition fees, the life of the mother and daughter became difficult again. Londons jobs are hard to find, and my mothers income is also very low. I didnt expect that today, because of long-term malnutrition, I will practice dance intensively at school. On the way home, he became dizzy and passed out on the road. Dimly and vaguely remembered that a tall Asian man came to her and touched her nose. After confirming that he was still alive, he hugged himself without hesitation. The man''s embrace is so warm! I don''t know why, but lying in his arms makes me feel safe. It was as if he was not worried that the other party would be a bad person at all, and fell into a complete coma. When I woke up again, I was indeed in the hospital. Looking at the white hospital wall, the dream finally woke up. Seeing the **** the hospital bed slowly opened her eyes, Fang Lang breathed a sigh of relief, the little girl finally survived. stood up, stretched out his **** and waved in front of the girl''s eyes: "Girl, can you hear me? Look at my fingers, what are they?" The girl blinked her eyes and said weakly: "two." "It''s okay, it''s okay, I know the numbers. I''m not stupid!" Fang Lang was relieved when he heard the girl''s answer. The doctor next to him shook his head helplessly and said: "Mr. Fang, she is just malnourished and fainted from hunger! The head has not been hit hard, and there will be no problems." "Oh! Really? That''s good." It''s a bit embarrassing! In later generations of hospitals, after a coma woke up, didn''t the doctor shine a flashlight on his eyes, and then stretch out his finger to ask what time it was? "Then what kind of treatment is needed next?" Fang Lang looked at the doctor. "There is no need for treatment. After returning home, take a good rest and take in more nutrients. However, she is a little older, and I don''t know if she can recover to her best condition." The doctor said helplessly to Fang Lang. Fang Lang is a little excited now, the kind of excitement that has done a good deed. In my previous life, I didnt dare to help a fainted person on the road. In this life, I dont have to worry at all, even if the other party blackmails me. If you have too much money, a lawsuit can kill you, so I ask you if you are afraid. (end of this chapter) Chapter 160: Hepburn Chapter 160 Hepburn Looking at the pale **** the hospital bed, she has a thin face, a high nose bridge, and a slight purple pupil in her eyes. Her facial features are very delicate, and she looks a bit like the girl next door. I don''t know why Fang Lang felt that he had seen her somewhere, but he couldn''t remember it for a while. Could it be that he had seen her before? "Miss, what is your name?" The girl''s voice was very crisp, and it was very comfortable to Fang Lang''s ears. "Hello, sir, thank you for saving me! My name is Audrey Catherine Ruston, but I changed my name not long ago, so you can call me Hepburn." Hepburn? Audrey Hepburn? I go. real or fake, Fang Lang finally realized why he felt that the girl in front of him looked familiar. This is the future international superstar, Audrey Hepburn! I met such a person when I did a good thing on the street? God! Is this a gift from you? But this girl is too thin! Will the child be hungry? "Okay, Hepburn, my name is Fang Lang! You can call me Lang, or Lang." The little girl said with a puzzled expression: "Shouldn''t you call Fang?" "Secretly tell you, I am Chinese, our habits are different from yours, we all have our surname first and first name second." Fang Lang approached Hepburn and whispered. Because the distance was too close, Hepburn''s pale face was slightly flushed. "Okay! Then I will call you a wave! Thank you very much for saving me, I don''t know how much it cost, I will pay you back." Looking at Hepburn''s pale face again, I thought to myself, the girl looks like you can''t even afford the food now. Then return the money to me! But if he directly refuses her to pay back the money, it may hurt his self-esteem. thought for a while and said: "There is no rush to pay back the money, we will wait until you recover. Tell me what you want to eat, you must be so hungry that you want to eat. Wait, you can''t eat hard food right now, I''ll cook porridge for you. " After speaking, he ran out in a hurry, and met Reinhardt as soon as he ran to the door. "Fang, what are you going to do!" "Exactly, Reinhardt, is there any rice in London? The girl inside woke up, but fainted due to lack of hunger. I can''t eat too hard food, so I want to cook some porridge for her. Take me to buy some ingredients. " Fang Lang walked outside as soon as he grabbed Reinhardt. Linehardt was pulled staggeringly and almost fell. "Hey, wait a minute. Slow down. My shoes!" When Fang Lang returned to the hospital again, he was holding a clay pot wrapped in cotton cloth in his hand. When Hepburn saw Fang Lang again, she breathed a sigh of relief. It''s not that he likes coming to Fang Lang and the like, but mainly because he is worried that he has no money to be discharged from the hospital. Reinhardt followed Fang Lang, and everything today simply refreshed Reinhardt''s perception of Fang Lang. Especially when Fang Lang was concentrating on cooking this pot of lean meat porridge. It''s like a different person. "Fang, are you bewitched!" "You''re just bewitched!" "But I don''t think I know you anymore." "You don''t understand, this is Audrey Hepburn, do you know?" "Who is Audrey Hepburn? You saved that girl?" "That was during Roman Holiday. No, you don''t need to know, it''s the girl I rescued." "It seems our Fang fell in love at first sight! Haha" "Go, go, go, go. I like a slightly fat girl with a bumpy figure. This girl is too thin." "Oh! So, now you want to use your exclusive secret recipe to feed her fat?" "Go away, you don''t understand." Reinhardt felt that he really didn''t understand, even if he liked this girl, he didn''t have to act like this! Reinhardt, who followed Fang Lang into the ward, saw that Fang Lang was talking to the girl gently. "Hepburn, this is our Chinese food, nutritious and healthy, very suitable for you at this time." As he spoke, he picked up the porcelain bowl in his hand, and used a spoon to scoop up a large spoon from the clay pot and put it into the porcelain bowl. After it was full, I used a small spoon to scoop out a little bit, blew it with my mouth, and handed it to Hepburn''s mouth. "Open your mouth, don''t worry, I''ve blown it, the temperature is just right." Looking at the gentle man in front of him, Hepburn felt as if she had been electrocuted suddenly, and she couldn''t help opening her mouth to drink porridge. But reason reminded her in time that the man in front of her was just a stranger she met for the first time. Although the other party is his own savior. Still, she was very shy about letting a stranger feed her so intimately. Hastily waved his hands and said: "No. No, I will do it myself." Fang Lang looked at the **** the hospital bed, her face was flushed, and she still didn''t understand what was going on. Turned around and glared at Reinhardt who followed. Reinhardt was inexplicable, thinking to himself, what''s wrong? Why do you stare at me? Other girls wont let you feed porridge, yet you stare at me. Can this be my fault? It seems that this is because I dislike me and get in the way! I''ll go, didn''t you pull me here yourself? Hello, Fang Lang, you also said that you are not a person who forgets righteousness when you see sex. Today, I, Reinhardt, have learned a lesson. Where is Fang Lang willing to give in? The little girl did it herself, and quickly stopped her: "You are a patient! You have to rest well, how can you drink porridge yourself? This is our Chinese delicacy, you will burn yourself if you dont drink it. Be obedient and open your mouth. " As he spoke, he kept drawing on Reinhardt with his feet. Looking at the meaning, Reinhardt still doesn''t understand what Fang Lang means. Isn''t this clearly telling myself to get out? The word FUCK almost blurted out. I thought to myself, for the sake of saving Aston Martin, my buddy will help you once. After thinking about it, he turned and left the ward. Seeing Reinhardt leave the ward, Hepburn''s face became even more rosy. Fang Lang was very satisfied with Reinhardt''s performance. Seeing that Hepburn was about to reach out for the bowl and spoon again, Fang Lang shrank his hands. Dodging Hepburn''s outstretched hands and saying: "Be obedient, you are sick now. Obediently drink porridge." Hepburn swallowed secretly as she smelled the aroma of lean meat porridge in the bowl. He was indeed very hungry, and there was a gurgling sound in his stomach. It made her face even more rosy. Seeing Fang Lang was really determined, and there was no one else in the ward. He could only open his mouth slightly. A mouthful of warm, fragrant and salty viscous hot stream flowed down his throat and into his abdominal cavity. This warm feeling almost made Hepburn burst into tears. She thinks this is the most delicious and warmest food she has ever eaten in her life. Meal that melts in the mouth, sticky with a salty taste, neither hot nor cold. Instantly caught her taste buds. Seeing Hepburn obediently eating the first mouthful of porridge, Fang Lang nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "By the way, this is how you behave! Is it delicious?" While talking, he lowered his head and scraped the slightly cooler porridge into the spoon along the edge of the porcelain bowl. Put it to your mouth and blow. This set of actions was so gentle in Hepburn''s eyes. At this time, Fang Lang''s whole body was shrouded in a layer of light in Hepburn''s eyes. This is the best man in his life, ever since he can remember. Father left their mother and daughter when he was six years old, which made her lack fatherly love since she was a child. At the uncles house, the uncle treated the mother and daughter well, but the uncle was executed by the Germans again. Later, no man treated her like this. Unknowingly, the eyes were filled with tears. As soon as Fang Lang handed the porridge spoon to Hepburn''s mouth, he was shocked when he saw the girl burst into tears. Hastily took out a handkerchief, helped the girl wipe away the tears from the corners of her eyes and said: "What''s the matter, what''s the matter, if there''s anything you''re unhappy about, tell me. See if I can help you out." The girl said with a smile on the corner of her mouth: "It''s okay, but this porridge is so delicious." Fang Lang was overjoyed when he heard the girl praise the delicious porridge he cooked. "Haha. It''s delicious! Let me tell you! British food is a disaster. The food depends on us Chinese. Open your mouth." As he spoke, he handed the spoon to the girl''s mouth. This time the girl opened her mouth very naturally and swallowed it. I dont know whether Hepburns appetite has diminished due to hunger, or whether she was born with a small appetite. Just eating two bowls means that you are full. Looking at Hepburn whose face gradually recovered some blood, Fang Lang nodded in satisfaction and said: "Hmm! Your complexion is much better now! Where is your home, I will take you back after a rest. " "Ah! It''s better not to! It''s not good for my mother to see!" Hearing Fang Lang said that he was going to take him home, Hepburn''s face turned red again. She didn''t know what to think of, and waved her hands again and again. Since everyone said no! As soon as the word "ba" is uttered, there is room for discussion! In the influence of Fang Lang, it seems that women mean to say no! As for the problems his mother saw, Fang Lang didn''t care! Fang Lang only saw Audrey Hepburn''s bright and beautiful screen image in later generations. I didn''t know that the original Hepburn would live such a hard life. This is what Hepburn really looks like! Shouldn''t it be recorded with a video camera? It will definitely become a very precious documentary! "That''s the decision. You little girl is wearing such thin clothes and it''s so cold outside. You''ll freeze to death when you go out. I''ll drive you to make you warmer." Seeing that Hepburn wanted to refuse again, Fang Lang directly changed the subject and said: "It''s such a cold day, what are you doing out here!" "I just finished my ballet class and was going home. I didn''t expect to pass out on the way. Thank you for saving me." Hepburn said with some embarrassment. "Hi! Speaking of these, but looking at you like this, you don''t even have food! Why do you still go to practice ballet? Filling the stomach should be more important than dancing! " Fang Lang didn''t know, it turned out that Audrey Hepburn was born studying ballet. I thought he was studying acting! In Fang Lang''s impression, art training courses are not cheap. Why would someone be willing to go hungry to learn dance? I have studied ballet since I was a child, and I want to be a good ballerina when I grow up. So. Hepburn felt a little embarrassed when Fang Lang saw his embarrassment. His face turned slightly pale. "So you are studying ballet! I thought you were studying acting!" Fang Lang muttered. "Acting? I haven''t studied acting!" "Ah! That''s okay, I just think that with your beauty, you should become a movie star." I dont know how Hepburn started her acting career. But Hepburn''s achievement as a Hollywood superstar will obviously be higher than that of a ballet dancer. But since other people''s dream is to become a ballet dancer, of course he won''t interfere. (end of this chapter) Chapter 161: funding hepburn Chapter 161 Funding Hepburn Hepburn heard Fang Lang praise her beauty, making her suitable to be a movie star. I was so happy, two red clouds climbed up my cheeks again. For a while, I didn''t know what to say. Fang Lang swallowed hard when he saw Hepburn''s shy expression. "Dancers are physical labor, you can''t train on an empty stomach like this now. How about this! I take care of you, No, no, I mean how about I invest in you? Food and housing are included to train you to become an excellent ballet dancer. When you succeed in the future, I will share the proceeds. " Hepburn obviously didn''t understand what nurturing meant, but when Fang Lang said that he wanted to invest in himself, he didn''t understand what Fang Lang meant. This is to see that my life is too difficult, and I feel sorry for myself. In order not to hurt my self-esteem, I changed the term. But the persistent Hepburn was not willing to accept such funding. waved his hands repeatedly and said: "No, no, my mother and I can earn money to finish our studies." Fang Lang interrupted directly with a wave of his hand: "Your body is about to collapse, think about your mother''s body, it must be worse than yours! Are you willing to make your mother work so hard? Don''t worry, I''m not a bad person. Now that I have seen your situation, I cannot choose to turn a blind eye. Even if it''s for your mother, you shouldn''t refuse my investment. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Hepburn''s eye circles turned red. Of course she knew how difficult it was for her mother. In order to allow myself to complete my studies, I get up early and stay late every day, but at the age of thirty-six or seventeen, I look like I am in my forties. How could Hepburn not feel distressed? Seeing tears streaming from the corners of Hepburn''s eyes, Fang Lang knew that he had hit her vital point. If Fang Lang really had any bad intentions, Fang Lang would not admit it. After all, Fang Lang couldn''t do the thing of repaying favors. He is not the kind of character who takes advantage of others. But, this is Audrey Hepburn! The girl''s natural halo. Plus, Fang Lang could feel the temperament of the girl from the inside out after contacting her today. is really very attractive. Hepburn on the hospital bed looks like Lin Daiyu''s sick beauty. Fang Lang doesn''t like it, he still likes healthy girls. With Fang Lang''s ability, it is absolutely possible for the girl to have a better life and a healthier body. This is not cultivation, no one who asks is cultivation, definitely not cultivation. After all, the girl is already seventeen years old, and it''s too late to develop her now. Wait, it''s not too late, I never thought about cultivating it. In his aesthetics, he likes beautiful women with well-proportioned bodies and bumps. If Hepburn''s figure can. What do you think? Now it''s an investment, just an investment. Fang Lang took out a handkerchief and gently wiped away the tears from the corners of the girl''s eyes. soft voice: "You are not allowed to refuse, although I am not a good person, but I am definitely not a bad person, please believe me! I assure you, absolutely no malice. I''m not British, I''m just passing through London. Since we can all meet each other, according to what we Chinese say, this is our fate. Investing in you is completely stress-free for me. So, you don''t have to have any burden at all. I will leave London in two days, and there will be very little chance of coming back in the future. You will act as if you have met a rich man with a lot of money. I took a fancy to your talent and felt that you have the potential to become an excellent ballet dancer, so I invested in you casually. As for whether the investment will be profitable, it depends on whether you can really succeed, doesnt it? If it works, I earn. Failed, it''s a small thing for me, isn''t it? But since I invested, I definitely hope to succeed, so you must take good care of your body, you know? " After a long speech, Hepburn kept silent, but looked at Fang Lang with tearful eyes. Let Fang Lang wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes for him. Hepburn is not a little girl who doesn''t understand anything, he knows what men want. However, after listening to Fang Lang''s words. Hepburn believed him for no reason. Although today was the first meeting, Hepburn was able to feel an unprecedented sense of security from the man in front of her. His warm embrace, his gentleness, his understanding, even his domineering. All made her feel good. She dared to pass information to the guerrillas when she was a little girl, which is enough to show that he is a brave girl. Listening to Fang Lang nagging and talking so much, words full of concern. Hepburn was crying and crying, and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of her mouth. Finally, laughing through tears, he got up and hugged Fang Lang, who wanted to continue chattering. This hug confused Fang Lang, what''s going on? Are you so attractive? The goddess took the initiative to throw herself into her arms. For a while, I was at a loss, not knowing where to put my hands. How can I say that I am also a prodigal son who has been in love for decades, but I didn''t expect to be manipulated by a little girl today. He clearly felt the body of the man he was hugging stiffen. Somewhat overwhelmed and clumsy performance. Hepburn was even more sure that this man was indeed not a bad person. Said softly in Fang Lang''s ear: "thanks!" Feeling the goddess exhaling like blue in his ear, Fang Lang''s hairs stood on end. I''ll go, this girl is not a fairy! I must be fooled! Later generations saw on the Internet that although Hepburn had four relationships, she seemed to be a good wife and mother! How is it different from what you know? A girl who is only seventeen years old, this is a bit overwhelming! Forcibly suppressing the throbbing in his heart, Fang Lang patted the girl''s thin back casually. "I actually have the strength to hug me, it seems to be much better, then let''s go home!" Hepburn bowed her head with a red face and hummed, and let go of Fang Lang''s hand. lightly got out of the hospital bed. When Fang Lang opened the door with Hepburn, he saw Reinhardt leaning on the bench to rest and smoking. Fang Lang signaled Hepburn to wait, and walked towards Reinhardt by himself. As soon as they saw the two coming out together, they knew they were going to send the girl home. "Fang, it seems that I need to go back by myself again?" After finishing speaking, he looked Hepburn from head to toe, approached Fang Lang and whispered: "The appearance is not bad, but, is it a little too thin!" "Shut up, kid, first help me find a house near the Mary Lambert Ballet School. It doesn''t need to be too big, just two or three rooms will do." Fang Lang also whispered to Reinhardt. "So fast?" With a scream, Reinhardt looked at Fang Lang dumbfounded. Today is the first day we met, and now we are going to buy a house and arrange for a little girl. Fang Lang heard Reinhardt''s scream, and wished he could kick his ass. Hepburn also cast her gaze over when she heard Reinhardt''s cry. Fang Lang smiled at her quickly, expressing that she was fine. Turned to Reinhardt again and said: "This girl came to Paris to study ballet with her mother, and now she relies on her mother to do odd jobs to support her studies. I have decided to sponsor her. So, help me find a house to put her in, this girl is too miserable. Since I have met, I have to help no matter what. " Hearing Fang Lang''s high-sounding words, Reinhardt had an evil expression of believing you. But as a good brother, Reinhardt still wouldn''t mind doing a little favor to his brother, no matter if it was real sponsorship or fake sponsorship. "Okay then! I won''t bother you to pick up girls!" Fang Lang and Reinhardt shook hands and did not refute. Turning around and leading Hepburn out of the hospital, under the guidance of Hepburn along the way, they came to a half-collapsed house. Fang Lang saw Hepburn''s living environment, and couldn''t help but sigh that he was still known as a seer. It seems that the house that has survived the bombing and the house that has not yet collapsed are the residences of Hepburn and her daughter. "You live here?" Fang Lang asked knowingly. "Yeah! It''s cheap here." Now Hepburn answered Fang Lang''s question indifferently. I don''t know if I really don''t care at all, or if I have let go in front of Fang Lang. Hearing the voices of the two, a lady who looked very elegant opened the door and looked over. "Mom, this is Fang Lang. I fainted on the road today, and he saved me." Hepburn took the initiative to step forward and introduced Fang Lang to his mother. Mother''s expression changed after hearing Hepburn''s words, and while searching back and forth on Hepburn''s body, she said: "What, why did you faint suddenly? How are you doing now?" "Auntie, don''t worry, I sent Hepburn to the hospital for an examination. She was mainly caused by malnutrition, dance practice, and excessive physical exertion." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Hepburn''s mother turned around and saluted Fang Lang: "Thank you for your help, Mr. Fang. Sorry for the trouble." Fang Lang waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Auntie, I have learned about your family''s situation from Miss Hepburn just now, and I think it''s really hard work for you now. If this goes on, both you and Miss Hepburn will collapse. Miss Hepburn''s daily intake of nutrients is not enough, which can easily damage her body. It would be a pity if he had to give up his ballet dream due to physical reasons. So, for the future of Miss Hepburn, I want to spend some funds to invest in Miss Hepburn, is that okay? " Fang Lang was very polite. From his attire and the car parked not far away, it all shows that he is a person of status. Hepburn''s mother glanced at Hepburn who was holding her arm beside her, and felt the strength from Hepburn''s hand. Obviously the little girl was very nervous at this time, and her face was a little red. "Mr. Fang, do you want to pursue my daughter?" Fang Lang didn''t expect Hepburn''s mother to be so direct, even though his skin was as thick as a city wall, his face was flushed at the moment. Hepburn was even more flushed and a little overwhelmed. After thinking about it for a while, Fang Lang still said truthfully: "Auntie, Hepburn is a very beautiful girl, I like it very much. But he is still too young now, so there is no need to rush to discuss these things. I think the most important thing for her now is to finish her studies as soon as possible. instead of discussing relationship issues right? " Hepburn''s mother obviously did not expect to get such a plausible answer. After carefully looking at Fang Lang for a while, he was sure that what Fang Lang said was indeed the truth. Actually, as a Westerner, Hepburn''s mother did not object to Hepburn''s falling in love. I don''t even want to get too involved in my daughter''s emotional life. However, as a former nobleman, she still hopes that her daughter''s partner will not be too bad. (end of this chapter) Chapter 162: Opportunities to enter the aircraft manufacturing industry Chapter 162 Opportunities to enter the aircraft industry The polite man in front of him looks very qualified, and Hepburn''s mother can see a kind of superior temperament from him. This is what she, as a nobleman, has been in contact with these high-ranking people before, so she can feel it. The other party''s statement shows that he really wants to help his daughter. that''s enough. "Mr. Fang, you are right. Hepburn should really focus on her studies now. I am grateful for your financial support for Hepburn''s education. " Mother Hepburn was very free and easy, and she accepted Fang Lang''s promise to support her daughter''s studies very frankly. This made Fang Lang''s large amount of rhetoric useless. Hepburn also looked at her mother in surprise, wondering how her mother, who had always been very independent, accepted Fang Lang''s investment so easily. And a very direct expression is funding. There is a big difference between funding and investing, and investing will want to see returns. Subsidy is indeed direct financial help, and whether it is returned depends on the wishes of the funded. But funding obviously puts itself in a very low position. Fang Lang understood what Hepburn''s mother meant very well. The investment Fang Lang said was actually to take care of Hepburn''s self-esteem. Although he knows what Hepburn''s achievements will be in the future. He didn''t really want to get a return on investment on Hepburn. And Hepburn''s mother couldn''t predict Hepburn''s future, so he knew very well that the investment Fang Lang said was actually funding. So she said it directly, putting herself in a vulnerable position of being funded. Fang Lang was very relieved by this uncompromising approach. "That''s good, here is ten pounds, and I will send ten pounds to you every month in the future. You can give Hepburn more nutrition, but you must never faint again due to malnutrition. If you continue like this, you and Hepburn''s bodies will really collapse. " Feeling Fang Lang''s sincere care, the Hepburn mother and daughter were very moved. When he returned to Reinhardt''s house, Reinhardt had already gone home. Obviously, we, Mr. Reinhardt, don''t need to do such a trivial matter as finding a house. "Haha. Let''s see, who is back. Isn''t this our Mr. Dumas?" Reinhardt just teased Fang Lang who came back. "It seems that our Reinhardt is very envious! Do you need me to impart some experience to you!" Fang Lang wouldn''t care about Reinhardt''s teasing when there was no woman around. "Cut! I''m flirting with girls, you don''t know how to play with mud in that corner!" "Really? How did I hear that Mr. Reinhardt is being strictly controlled by his fiance?" "Where is this rumor, I" Seeing Reinhardt blushing and trying to explain something, Fang Lang smiled, waved his hand and said: "Okay! I know it''s all rumors. Have you found the house I asked you to help find?" Reinhardt was relieved that Fang Lang was no longer teasing himself, but asked about the house. "It''s not that easy, many places in London have been destroyed in the bombing. It''s hard to find a suitable place near the Marie Lambert Ballet School. If you don''t mind, I know a nobleman who wants to sell a residence in Mayer, but it is relatively large. I don''t know if you are interested. " "Mayer, is this near you?" "Yes, many British nobles live here, and the environment here is very good. If you buy a house here, when you come to London later, you will have your own house, right? " Fang Lang remembered that when he was in New York, he had been living in a hotel, and there were indeed many inconveniences. Now in London, I am also borrowing from Reinhardt''s house. I have a lot of entourage, and I have a lot of business to deal with, so it is really not suitable. "Go, let''s go and see!" The two walked through a block and came to the residence that Reinhardt mentioned. This is a four-story building along the street. There are obvious Baroque sculptures on the outer wall, which looks very luxurious. Across the street is a large park. It is already evening. When you look through the park, you can see the sunset slowly setting in the sky. Fang Lang remembered that London in later generations was one of the cities with the highest housing prices in the world. If I buy a property here now, maybe I can make a lot of money. "Can I go in and see what''s going on inside?" "Not now, the owner is in Australia now, the key is kept in the asset management company, and it will be delivered tomorrow. But I have been to this house, each floor has four bedrooms and two living rooms, the space is very large. There are sixteen rooms in the whole building. As your residence in London should be enough. " "Is the property right of the house clear? There won''t be any hands left!" "Don''t worry! The owner of this house is a lord. If he didn''t want to settle in Australia, he wouldn''t think about selling this house." "OK, since you Reinhardt thinks the house is good, don''t look at it, go to go through the formalities tomorrow!" The next day, when Fang Lang was about to go through the transfer procedures of his first real estate with Reinhardt. Linehardt''s mother Mrs. Henderson came to London suddenly. Because Fang Lang and Mrs. Henderson have jointly invested in a British shipyard, the two are no strangers. "Fang, I heard that you bought Aston Martin? It must be the idea of ??this **** Reinhardt!" Mrs. Henderson obviously knew about Leonhardt''s obsession with Aston Martin. As soon as he heard that Fang Lang had bought Aston Martin, he immediately knew the reason. So, the purpose of coming to London this time may also be for this matter. "Haha, Mrs. Henderson, it was indeed Reinhardt who showed me around this factory. I personally feel pretty good. My purpose of coming to Europe this time was to find some suitable investment projects. So, don''t worry about it. " Fang Lang could feel that Mrs. Henderson was obviously worried that Fang Lang was misled by Reinhardt without knowing it. I want to point out Reinhardt''s purpose, so that Fang Lang will not find out the problem after the fact. Blame Reinhardt. The three sat on the sofa in the living room and chatted, of course they would not carry Reinhardt behind their backs. Hearing that my mother suspected that she had cheated on her friends, she was very dissatisfied. Low voice: "Mom, just because you think Aston Martin can''t be saved doesn''t mean Fang can''t be saved either. He has changed the original Aston Martin''s business thinking, and he will definitely be able to bring Aston Martin back to life. " Mrs. Henderson was obviously surprised when she heard what her son said. As the mistress of the Henderson family, her husband works in the navy, so many jobs in the family business are actually decided by Mrs. Henderson. When Leonhardt wanted to acquire Aston Martin, he was vetoed by Mrs. Henderson. After all, in his opinion, Aston Martin, a car brand, has a small market, but the investment is not small. The gain outweighs the gain and has no investment value. Unexpectedly, his son told him today that Fang Lang changed Aston Martin''s business thinking, which made him very curious. Seeing Mrs. Henderson looking at herself and casting a questioning look. Fang Lang didn''t hide anything, and gave Mrs. Henderson a brief explanation of his future plans for Aston Martin and his views on the future of the automotive industry. After hearing Fang Lang''s explanation, Mrs. Henderson fell into a brief thought. "Fang, you are so optimistic about the future of cars, what about airplanes?" Fang Lang was taken aback by asking this question, airplane? That''s a tall thing, and I don''t have the strength to participate in the aircraft market. Wait, no! It seems that the current aircraft is not as advanced as it was later! The manufacture of piston engines is not much different from that of automobiles! Many aircraft manufacturing companies seem to start from the production of cars! I have brought the difficulty of manufacturing advanced aircraft of later generations into the present era! The manufacturing technology of the current piston aircraft seems to be similar to that of the agricultural aircraft of later generations! Brazil is the world of big farmers, can they produce aircraft engines with the help of automobile engine production lines? Then make some simple agricultural aircraft to sell for money! In later generations, isnt Brazils toucan fighter a propeller plane? Of course, the engine of the toucan is a turboprop engine, not a piston engine. This guy has filled many gaps in the field of modern air force operations. At first, this aircraft was also developed as a trainer, so can I also make preparations in advance? If you have the ability to manufacture equipment for the three armed forces, then your right to speak in the Brazilian army will become very important in the future! As for whether someone wants to nationalize their company, it depends on their teeth, whether it is good enough. Since Mrs. Henderson asked her opinion on aircraft, can she learn about their family''s aircraft manufacturing business? "Aircraft, of course, is the most promising industry. World War II has proved the importance of air supremacy. An army without an air force can only become a living target." "By the way, you are a soldier. What do you think the future development direction of the Air Force will be!" The question asked by Mrs. Henderson surprised Fang Lang a little. Is this a test for himself? Fang Lang is very clear about the future development direction of the Air Force, but he doesn''t want to tell everything he knows. Lets not say whether others believe it or not, if the time comes when I say the development direction of the Air Force and it comes true, I wont be treated as the blame! thought for a while and said: "The future of airplanes must lie in jet aircraft! There is no doubt about it." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Mrs. Henderson became a little silent. Fang Lang and Reinhardt looked at each other and then looked at Mrs. Henderson. After a while, Mrs. Henderson realized and said apologetically: "Sorry, I lost my mind. Why does Fang think jets are the future? The engineers of our company told me that the jet engine is very unreliable, and the fuel consumption is too high, which is simply not enough for transoceanic flight! " It seems that this is a fan of propeller planes! Jet aircraft engines are unreliable, also because they have just appeared! Technology is still immature for sure. Just because of this, it would be too childish to think that jet aircraft has no future. Britain will be regarded as an aviation power in later generations! There''s no reason why you can''t see through this! "This Mrs. Henderson, I don''t know the name of the family''s aircraft company? What kind of aircraft is the main model manufactured now? " (end of this chapter) Chapter 163: bristol co. Chapter 163 Bristol Company Fang Lang hesitated to ask the name and model of the Henderson family aircraft company, wanting to see if he had heard of it. But I am worried whether this information will be classified as confidential information. I dont know if I can tell myself. As a result, Mrs. Henderson said indifferently: "Don''t worry, there is nothing to keep secret. In 1945, our company was entrusted by the British Ministry of Aviation to design and produce a large passenger aircraft capable of flying across the ocean. Our family''s aircraft factory was called the Bristol Company, and several aircraft were developed during the war. According to the design plan, the length of our aircraft will exceed 50 meters, the wingspan will exceed 70 meters, and it will be loaded with eight centaur radial engines developed by the company itself. The design range will reach 8,900 meters. " This Bristol company doesn''t seem to be doing well! I have never heard of it, and it seems that this model is not mass-produced. Historically, the aircraft model of Bristol Company was called Bristol Brabazon aircraft. The speed and range of the aircraft were lower than the predetermined indicators, and the aluminum skin and internal frame were also prone to fatigue cracks. So, in the end, mass production failed. That is to say, all the research and development expenses of this aircraft have been in vain. "Ms. Henderson, please forgive me, this aircraft is already behind. Now the UK should also be researching advanced jetliners! Have you not received relevant information? The two models are being researched at the same time, and you have already fallen behind when you start research and development. " I heard that there are two factories experimenting with jetliners, but right now there is so much uncertainty about who is the future. Why do you think jets are the future? Don''t you know that jet fuel consumption is amazing? If it is used as a passenger plane, the economy is not very good. " Mrs. Henderson obviously knew the difference between the two types of aircraft, and she was also very clear about the shortcomings of jet aircraft. Unfortunately, considering the problem is still full of limitations. But she can''t be blamed for this, after all, the advancement of science and technology often leads to disputes over routes. This is also a world of winners and losers. Fang Lang didn''t know the final result of this aircraft factory of the Henderson family, but since it did not become famous in later generations. I think it was because I went the wrong way and became unknown! But Fang Lang was wrong on this point. Bristol Company is not an unknown company. Maybe this company is lacking in the technical ability to manufacture aircraft, but it is still very powerful in manufacturing aircraft engines. The famous British Harrier fighter was developed in 1957 by the Hawker Aircraft Company and the Bristol Aero-Engine Company. However, due to poor management, Bristol was finally acquired by Rolls-Royce in 1960 and became a company that produces aero engines. "Actually, the fuel consumption of a jet engine is indeed higher than that of a piston engine at low speeds, but its excellent high-speed performance is doomed to eliminate the piston engine. The development direction of aircraft must be higher, faster and farther, isn''t it? Piston engines are naturally behind jet engines in this regard. As for the fuel consumption you are worried about, as long as the plane flies into the stratosphere, the air will be thinner and the resistance will be smaller, which will naturally save fuel. And there are many types of jet engines! As far as I know, the fuel economy of the turbofan engine is obviously better than that of the turbojet engine! Worried about high fuel consumption, you can choose to use a more fuel-efficient turbofan engine as the engine of the passenger plane! " Fang Lang directly knows the truth of the future through the fog of history, so he has accurate seriousness about the future. There is absolutely no need to cross the river by feeling the stones like people do now. Fang Lang''s words did remind Mrs. Henderson, and even Reinhardt interjected after listening to Fang Lang''s analysis: "Yes! Mom, I think Fang Lang''s income is correct. Our family is so tight now that we have invested in the wrong direction of research and development. Is there any way to adjust the direction now?" Ms. Henderson''s face was a little ugly. He was just a businesswoman, not a scientist. So she doesn''t know much about the cutting-edge technology of aircraft, and even jet aircraft and piston aircraft are better, she doesn''t have a clear understanding. But he could feel a sense of danger from Fang Lang''s simple analysis. If it is really like what Fang Lang said, maybe the large sum of money invested by the company will be in vain. This is not a small fortune. The budget of the entire project is as high as millions of pounds. If the project goes wrong, the company may go bankrupt directly, which is absolutely unacceptable to her. Of course, he will not change the company''s research and development direction after completely listening to Fang Lang alone. "Fang, I believe in Ni''s vision, but this matter is very big. So I need to organize experts to conduct discussions before I can decide how to proceed. " But Fang Lang had some ideas of his own at this time. "Mrs. Henderson, since your company is able to develop such a huge propeller aircraft, the technology in the manufacture of propeller aircraft must be quite powerful, right?" "Of course, our company''s "Centaur" radial engine and "Hercules" radial engine are all very advanced aero-engine technologies. At the same time, our company was the main bomber and transport aircraft manufacturer of the British army during the war, so you don''t have to doubt our company''s technical capabilities in the aviation industry. " Mrs. Henderson is not at all humble when it comes to the brilliance her company has achieved. After all, she has the capital to be proud. "Mrs. Henderson, would you be interested in working with me to build an aircraft manufacturing company in Brazil?" Fang Lang looked at Mrs. Henderson expectantly. "Oh! Fang is interested in entering the aviation industry, but if an aircraft factory is built in Brazil, will there be a market?" "Of course! Brazil''s large farms are in great need of some light agricultural aircraft. Think about how much trouble it will be to use an aircraft to spray pesticides at high altitudes." As soon as Fang Lang heard that Fang Lang was going to produce agricultural aircraft, Mrs. Henderson felt a little lack of interest. However, the relationship between Fang Lang and their family is very close because of Reinhardt, so it is impossible to directly refuse Fang Lang''s request for cooperation. After thinking about it, Mrs. Henderson still said: "Fang, you also know the current situation of our company. If it is really like what you said, our company may need to change the direction of research, so the financial pressure will be very heavy. If you want a joint venture, our company may only invest in technology. " What Fang Lang wants is Bristol''s technical support. Therefore, I was very happy to hear that Mrs. Henderson was willing to invest in technology. nodded and said: "No problem, but the main technical personnel in the early stage may also need to be provided by Bristol." "Of course, but are you sure you will only build a factory for the production of agricultural aircraft? In this case, the market is a bit narrow and there is not much potential for development!" Ms. Henderson is a businessman after all, so she is very concerned about product sales. If the two parties jointly establish an aircraft manufacturing plant in Brazil, it will close down due to lack of market. That is also considered a failed investment, which will have a negative impact on your position on the board of directors. "Haha. Ma''am, don''t worry, the reason why we set up a small agricultural aircraft manufacturing plant is to save costs and solve the problem first. As for the later stage, our familys Fangyuan Group is now forming a military industrial group. If we have the ability to manufacture aircraft, we will of course start lobbying the government to purchase our own aircraft! However, it is hard to say whether it will be able to obtain government purchase orders. " Obviously, Fang Lang''s idea is to use it first for civilian use, and then develop to military use after he has complete technical strength. For Mrs. Henderson, the participation of large group companies in the manufacture of military products in the country is the symbol of a company''s success. Since the Fang Lang family''s business can enter the military industry in Brazil. That shows that the Fang family has a strong influence in Brazil. Such a partner is exactly what the Henderson family needs. "If your group has the opportunity to obtain a national order, I think I can easily persuade the board of directors to agree to cooperate with your family. Originally, this is a big event that requires the negotiators of the two companies to sit down and conduct long-term negotiations. However, in view of the relationship between our two families, I can tell you clearly that there is no problem with this cooperation. However, what proportion of shares do you think is more appropriate? " When it comes to the issue of benefit distribution, it is not good for both parties to speak first, and it is not good if it is high or low. Fang Lang didn''t know for a while how many shares he should give to the Bristol company if it was a technology company. "Ms. Henderson, our group has never had this kind of cooperation. I don''t know how do you think the proportion of shares should be allocated?" Ms. Henderson obviously understands Fang Lang''s scruples, and she actually has an indifferent attitude towards Fang Lang''s sudden proposal that the two companies cooperate to establish an aircraft factory. smiled and said: "Fang, you don''t have to worry so much. With the relationship between the two of us, we only need to determine the company''s investment scale, and then evaluate our technology." "Then I don''t know how much investment is needed to invest in the construction of an airport capable of producing agricultural aircraft?" Hearing that Fang Lang still wanted to test the waters by producing agricultural aircraft first, Mrs. Henderson began to worry about whether she would be able to convince the board of directors. After all, the market and profits for agricultural aircraft are too small. After thinking about it, a new plan gradually took shape in my mind. "It depends on what kind of strength your company wants to use. If it''s just a simple aircraft assembly capability, tens of thousands of pounds are actually enough. All the parts can be purchased from us and assembled back in Brazil, your factory will be very simple. Even a small aircraft maintenance line can do the job. In this case, you dont need to form a joint venture with us at all, you can assemble a production line by yourself. " Hearing Mrs. Henderson''s words, Fang Lang was taken aback for a moment. He seemed to have an aircraft maintenance line left by the US military! If aircraft assembly can be carried out using this maintenance line, then there is indeed no technical content at all! Moreover, Fang Lang suddenly thought of a new direction. The future world is an era of global integration. Many factories are designed by themselves, and then the parts that suit them are purchased globally, and finally assembled. Just like the models produced by Embraer in later generations, most of them are produced in this way! (end of this chapter) Chapter 164: Curve to save the country Chapter 164 Curve to save the country "You mean, I actually only need to hire a few aircraft design engineers to build my aircraft factory." "Of course, we are friends, and I can''t possibly deceive you, although I''m pretty sure I can convince the board of directors to build an aircraft factory in Brazil with you. However, now our main energy is concentrated on our Brabazon aircraft, and we really don''t have much energy to expand. If we set up a joint venture factory and we only produce technology, the board of directors of the company may worry that our shares will be easily diluted. So, I suggest that you might as well just build an aircraft assembly plant. Then hire several professional aircraft designers to complete their own design drawings, and then directly assemble and produce them. " This may be the sequelae Fang Lang brought from later generations, thinking that all the technology must be completely in his own hands before he can feel at ease. But now I am not in my hometown, but in Brazil. In recent years, Brazil has always maintained a good relationship with the United States. There is no need to worry about getting stuck. I thought of the United States, thought of the aircraft maintenance line, and thought of the American Shata Corporation. A brand new idea suddenly appeared in Fang Lang''s mind. Now I own the shares of Shata Corporation, and I can obtain decommissioned transport aircraft from the United States at the lowest price, and then undergo commercial modification. Sell to the airlines that need it, so that the profits needed for the company''s early development can be guaranteed. And can be familiar with the structure of each model, At the same time, it can master a sales channel, The company''s technical strength can also be rapidly improved. When your own aircraft is designed and assembled, isn''t it very simple? Even in the early stage, I can complete the corresponding technology accumulation by manufacturing certain parts for major aircraft companies. Thinking of this, Fang Lang''s eyes suddenly brightened. But Fang Lang is also very clear now that these things cannot be done by himself. I dont understand aircraft design myself, so the best way is to find a professional to take charge of this matter. "Ms. Henderson, thank you very much. You have given me inspiration. Indeed, as you said, the future is an era of global integration. I can indeed produce my own aircraft through global procurement. I think I should build a one-day aircraft overhaul line first, and start from repairing and modifying aircraft step by step, and enter this industry. Avoid unnecessary losses caused by blind entry. " Of course, no matter which plan is followed to build a factory, it must have its own core technology. So what core technologies does the aircraft have? There will definitely be a lot to say about future aircraft, what aerodynamic layout! Material structure! Avionics flight control system! Engine! very many! However, aircraft in this era are not that complicated for the time being, or the aircraft that Fang Lang wants to build does not need to be so complicated for the time being. The most important technology right now is definitely the engine, because there is a saying that great efforts make miracles. Bart Osborne, the former project manager of the Lockheed Tactical Fighter Systems Division of the United States, once said: "As long as the thrust is strong, bricks can fly into the sky." So at this time, the engine is definitely the most important core technology. Fang Lang could hear from Mrs. Henderson''s words that Mrs. Henderson was not sure that she could really convince the board of directors to agree to cooperate with herself, a completely unfounded novice, to establish a joint venture factory that only manufactures agricultural aircraft. Ms. Henderson also understood that Fang Lang heard his evasion, or explained his difficulties. That''s why he voluntarily rejected the original plan to build an aircraft factory in a joint venture with himself. It made him feel a little unreasonable. After thinking about it, Mrs. Henderson said: "If you really want to enter the field of aircraft manufacturing, I think I can introduce you to someone who may be able to help you." Ms. Henderson''s words made Fang Lang happy. Didn''t he send a pillow just because he wanted to doze off? What Fang Lang needs most now is professionals. "Really? Thank you so much Mrs. Henderson." Fang Lang looked at Mrs. Henderson expectantly. "Don''t be too happy, I''ll tell you where this person is, but you have to persuade him yourself. His name is Ante Pollmann, he is a German, and he has participated in the development of ME323 and Heinger He111Z twin-body aircraft. This is a crazy guy, and his concept of designing aircraft design was a bit difficult for us, so we didn''t keep him. However, if you want to start a whole new aircraft manufacturing business, you might be able to hire his help. " Fang Lang was taken aback by this. What do you mean? The aircraft design concept made it difficult for them to accept. It cant be the twin machine just mentioned! This thing has no future! The degree of difficulty in operation is not ordinary. It is better to ask clearly. "You said that his design concept is a bit unacceptable, what exactly do you mean, can you tell me?" "How do you say this? He is crazy about a technology called variable-sweep wings, and he has conducted very in-depth research on him. It is said that this technology was proposed by Messerschmitt, and a P.1101 was designed, but it may not be successful. Our company''s experts thought he was a bit whimsical. But it is undeniable that he is definitely a qualified aircraft designer. " Variable-sweep wings? Isn''t this the technology of the F14 Tomcat? This is a very good thing! Suddenly felt that these aircraft experts in the Henderson family might really be bricks. It''s just that Yumu''s head is not clear. can no longer be described as conservative. However, this is good news for Fang Lang! At least this technology is proven to be feasible in later generations! What are you waiting for? Try to make yourself appear calm and say: "Oh! I don''t know where is Mr. Ante Polman, the aircraft designer?" "He is German and has now returned to his native Oberndorf in Baden-Wrttemberg. If, you want to hire a professional then I think he would be a qualified candidate. " According to Fang Lang''s itinerary, his next stop was originally Germany, so this does not conflict with his itinerary at all. Fang Lang even had a feeling that he might have picked up a baby this time. The mood suddenly became excited. "That''s no problem, as it happens that my next fight is Germany, maybe I can just go and talk to him. However, Mrs. Henderson and the aircraft assembly plant I established do not know if it is possible to introduce several types of piston engine technology to Bristol. If that doesn''t work, we can sign a contract and buy the engines from Bristol. Or, please introduce me to the staff of Rolls-Royce. I have introduced or purchased several engines from their company. " Fang Lang set his requirements very low, even a little praying. It''s not that Fang Lang is mean, he just wants to put a little pressure on Mrs. Henderson. After all, you are not sure about convincing the board of directors about the joint venture to build a factory. Now I want to introduce several engine technologies, if not, I can buy them directly from you! If you still think its not good, then introduce another aircraft manufacturing company in the UK to me, its always possible! As a businessman, it is obviously impossible to introduce business to others. So introducing the option of Rolls-Royce will definitely not work. The only thing left is to introduce engine technology and simply sell the engine to him. Selling the engine to Fang Lang obviously became a simple business. In this way, the close relationship between Fang Lang and the Henderson family cannot be revealed. There are not many options left for Mrs. Henderson. Sure enough, before Mrs. Henderson could speak, Leonhardt, who had been listening to the conversation between the two, spoke first. "Mom, I think it shouldn''t be difficult to sell a few sets of engine production technology and guide the factory below to master the technology! If the board of directors still objects, then please find some reasons and fire a few engineers who master these technologies. I''ll help Fang Lang re-hire them. If they are unwilling to leave the UK. We can hire them directly into the Aston Martin factory to build the engine. " Ms. Henderson thought for a long time before saying: "Fang, there are people from the British military on our board of directors, so there may be some things that I really cannot provide to you. However, what Reinhardt said just reminded me. We cannot provide these technologies to other countries outside the UK, however, we can provide them to companies in the UK. That is, we can deliver these technologies to your Aston Martin factory. It can even arrange for people to go to the Aston Martin factory to guide production, as Leinhardt said. As long as the Aston Martin factory has mastered these technologies, it will become very simple for you to obtain these technologies. Isn''t it? " Fang Lang didn''t expect Reinhardt to be so powerful and help him come up with such a good idea. In this way, not only can bypass the supervision of the British government, but it may also give Aston Martin some new inspiration for its engine technology. This is really a good idea to kill two birds with one stone. Fang Lang slapped his hands and said: "That''s great, Reinhardt, you''re a genius. Haha Now I think buying Aston Martin is really a great choice. Maybe, Aston Martin can also cooperate more deeply with Bristol. Reinhardt, what do you think of an Aston Martin with an all-aluminum body? Will it be lighter than the current body, will it run faster than it is now, will it win the Grand Prix again? " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Mrs. Henderson didn''t understand what Fang Lang was up to. But it is obviously impossible for him to jump out and object directly. Because she knew how much his son loved Aston Martin, he would agree without hesitation. Even if she refuses now, he will definitely find a way to facilitate this matter. Sure enough, after listening to Fang Lang''s words, Reinhardt slapped his thigh and stood up, walking back and forth in the room. Still muttering in his mouth: "Yeah! Why didn''t I think of that? On the aluminum car, it means lighter weight, and then see if I can get some new inspiration from the aircraft engine. Further increase the power of the engine. Gosh! Is it possible that such an Aston Martin could hit speeds of over 180 mph? Can this break the world record! If only I had an Aston Martin like this. God! " (end of this chapter) Chapter 165: French welcome ceremony Chapter 165 French Welcome Ceremony Seeing Reinhardt''s performance, Mrs. Henderson knew that the technology of the aluminum body could not be kept. Looked at Fang Lang helplessly, fearing that he would propose some new plan, he quickly changed the subject and said: "Okay, there is no need to discuss about Aston Martin. You can do it yourself." Fang Lang acted as if he also accidentally came up with such a good idea. Where the heartless are happy. In fact, Reinhardt certainly doesn''t understand anything, and he can also understand that once Aston Martin obtains the technical information on the aluminum body, it means that Fang Lang''s aircraft factory has obtained these technologies. But Reinhardt didn''t care, after all, Fang Lang had an extraordinary relationship with him. Moreover, from the fact that Fang Lang contacted him to participate in the Pacific War, but was intercepted by the Americans, he saw the delicate relationship between the United States, Britain, and Brazil. Brazil is not the enemy of Europe and the United States, but the object that both sides are wooing. Since he is not an enemy, Reinhardt feels that based on the relationship between Fang Lang and himself, it is actually not a big deal for Fang Lang to obtain the technology of the aluminum body. Aston Martin suggested to Fang Lang to buy it. According to Fang Lang, if Aston Martin can really apply the aluminum body to the car body, it will indeed improve Aston Martin''s technology again. Fang Lang saw that he had achieved his goal, so of course he wouldn''t say anything more. As for the information on jet engines, it is just now developing, and maybe we can think of a way from other places. You cant always pluck a sheep. The next few people also changed the topic to other aspects very tacitly. Regarding Fang Lang''s plan to buy a nearby property to settle in Hepburn, Reinhardt also took it out and hyped it up. Ms. Henderson in Lane looked at Fang Lang strangely. After the three of them had lunch together, Mrs. Henderson hurried back to Bristol. Fang Lang and Reinhardt went to the British Bureau of Land Statistics together to go through the procedures for changing the property rights of the house. After completing the formalities, Fang Lang directly picked up Hepburn''s mother and daughter, and visited the new house together. And in the name of entrusting Hepburn''s mother to take care of the property, let the two live in this luxurious apartment in Mayer, London. After a night without knowing what happened, Fang Lang obviously felt that Hepburn became a little more relaxed when facing him. While visiting the house, he took the initiative to hug Fang Lang''s arm in front of his mother. And Hepburn''s mother didn''t seem to realize it. Fang Lang, who is a prodigal son in love, of course understands what this means. He didn''t say much, but repeatedly emphasized the issue of Hepburn''s body nutrition in front of the two of them. repeatedly stated that Hepburn was too thin. Ask Hepburn''s mother to make more meat for Hepburn, and don''t stop with the usual vegetables and fruits. This moved the Hepburn mother and daughter very much. Only Fang Lang knows that Hepburn, who is 170 tall and weighs only 90 catties, really makes Fang Lang a little afraid to do it. Therefore, he repeatedly expressed to Hepburn''s mother and daughter that he hoped that the next time he saw the two of them, he could see Hepburn''s weight increase to about 110 catties. On the same day, Fang Lang did not live in his newly purchased luxury apartment, but returned to Reinhardt''s house after handing over the keys to the house to the Hepburn mother and daughter. This puzzled Reinhardt very much, and he always looked up and down Fang Lang with a strange look. Fortunately, homosexuality is not yet popular at this time, otherwise Reinhardt will probably start to wonder if Fang Lang has any unreasonable thoughts about him. As everyone knows, this is all done by Fang Lang on purpose, and it''s just a means of retreating. The next day, Fang Lang, who had been delayed for a long time in the UK, finally bid farewell to Reinhardt and Hepburn''s mother and daughter again and embarked on a trip to Germany. At this time, Germany was occupied by the United States, Britain, France, and the Soviet Union, and the people of Germany were tasting the bitter fruit of defeat in the war. People''s lives are very difficult, and a large number of high-tech talents are divided up by the United States, the Soviet Union and other countries. There are still many outstanding talents waiting to be discovered in the remaining ruins. And the target of Fang Lang''s arrival this time is these talents. Because of Mrs. Henderson''s introduction, the first target Fang Lang is looking for now is Ante Polmann of Stuttgart, the capital of Baden-Wrttemberg. At this time, West Germany had not yet been established, and Baden-Wurttemberg was under the jurisdiction of the French occupation forces. At this time, the relationship between France and the United States was not very harmonious. The reason is actually very simple. Roosevelt ignored "Free France" throughout World War II and still maintained diplomatic relations with the French Vichy government. In the eyes of Americans, Free France is just a government in exile, which cannot represent the legal status of France at all. The deeper purpose of the United States is to take advantage of the defeat of France to turn France into a vassal state. Thus, throughout the war the search was made for a proxy at the behest of the United States to replace the unruly de Gaulle. After the Normandy landing, General Eisenhower directly ordered the establishment of the French military government and forced the issuance of currency. De Gaulle directly established the French provisional government to resolutely resist the so-called military government of the United States and demanded that the United States respect France''s sovereignty. Due to the existence of another powerful resistance force behind enemy lines in France during this period, the French Communist Party, and the French Communist Party during this period was capable of controlling the political situation in France. Finally, the Americans had to choose the lesser of two evils and agreed to dissolve the military government and recognize the French provisional government as the de facto civil authority. Militaryly, Eisenhower is still the commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces and has all the necessary powers. It was not until the French Second Armored Division regained the French capital Paris after a fierce battle that the French Provisional Government truly took control of the French regime. From here alone, we can see the sinister intentions of the US empire. If it weren''t for the fact that there was a General de Gaulle in France, maybe France would have become a vassal state of the United States long ago. Of course, the bad relationship between the French government and the United States has a lot to do with General de Gaulle, the leader of Free France, feeling that he has not received the respect he deserves. What made de Gaulle most dissatisfied was that when the Yalta conference was held, only the three giants of Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union participated, and he was ignored. Furthermore, France''s attitude towards Germany is also the toughest, and the anti-German system is also the most thorough implementation. France even signed a separate "Treaty of Mutual Assistance and Alliance" with the Soviet Union to implement the strategy of uniting the Soviet Union to make Germany. This made both the United States and Britain very dissatisfied. So it can be seen that the life of the people in the French-occupied area of ??Germany is the most difficult at this time. The state of Baden-Wurttemberg where Fang Lang came this time happened to be in the French-occupied area. Among the victorious countries, France plundered Germany most thoroughly. Basically, the better industrial equipment was packaged and dismantled. When Fang Lang''s plane landed at Stuttgart Airport, there was no one to receive it. Even as soon as he got off the plane, Fang Lang felt the enthusiasm of the French people. A tall French lieutenant invited Fang Lang and his accompanying assistants and guards to an office next to the airport. Interviewed Fang Lang alone. Of course the interview the French call is not friendly. "Name?" The French lieutenant asked in English. "Fang Lang!" "gender" "Mr. Lieutenant, can''t you see for yourself?" "Now I''m asking you." "Excuse me, Mr. Lieutenant, have I violated any French laws?" Fang Lang was very annoyed at this time. He didn''t expect to be entertained by the French just after getting off the plane. "I''m asking you your gender." The French lieutenant smiled disdainfully. "Mr. Lieutenant, my people have already identified us to you. Now I repeat to you again, my name is Fang Lang, Captain of the Brazilian Navy, we are allies, and many soldiers under my command participated in the battle to liberate your France. If I hadnt been wounded on the Italian battlefield, I would also have the opportunity to set foot on French soil and take part in the battle to liberate France. I don''t understand why you treat us as allies like this. However, I will call General de Gaulle myself and ask him to give me an answer. " "Just you? It''s still a colonel, so why don''t you see you enter the country in military uniform. You''d better be honest, what is your purpose of sneaking into Germany. " The French lieutenant''s attitude was very arrogant, and he didn''t take Fang Lang''s identity seriously at all. This made Fang Lang regret a little bit. He shouldn''t have left alone just now, and gave these Frenchmen a chance to ask alone. If the guards are around, the big deal is to fight these French soldiers directly. Looking at the appearance of the French lieutenant opposite, Fang Lang could tell that this guy was definitely not someone with combat effectiveness. Even the French soldiers in the entire airport are small fish. But considering that everyone is an ally, he didn''t want to make the relationship too rigid, so Fang Lang chose to follow the other party''s arrangement. But now it seems that these French people obviously regard them as people with malicious intentions. "Mr. Lieutenant, please ask your superior to come and talk to me! Otherwise, I do not promise further action. " Fang Lang looked coldly at the French lieutenant in front of him. Since you are French and dont respect me, dont blame me for disrespecting you. Seeing Fang Lang''s eyes began to turn cold, the French lieutenant suddenly felt that the temperature in the room began to drop. The young man on the opposite side suddenly began to show the aura of a superior. He has felt this kind of momentum from his superiors. However, he will not give up interrogating the person in front of him just because of this. Instead, he grabbed the registration book on the table even more vigorously, raised his hand and threw it at Fang Lang. How could Fang Lang let him succeed? He grabbed his wrist quickly with his eyes and hands, and fell over his shoulder with his strength, knocking the French lieutenant to the ground. easily pulled out his pistol from his waist, and put it on his temple. Because the other party didn''t put handcuffs on Fang Lang to restrict Fang Lang''s actions, Fang Lang''s movements were fast and ruthless. Instantly subdued the French lieutenant in front of him. Feeling the cold touch from the temple, the lieutenant lost his voice instantly. Because one hand was twisted behind Fang Lang''s back, it was pressed to the ground and could not move. A pistol was pointed at the head again on the forehead. Mr. Lieutenant instantly became very honest. "Sir, don''t be impulsive! I trust you! Don''t be impulsive. Sir, you said, we are allies. Please do not do this. " Hearing this, Fang Lang laughed instantly. Damn you, you were still interrogating me just now, and you wanted to hit me with something, and then you said in a blink of an eye that we are our own people. (end of this chapter) Chapter 166: review Chapter 166 Review This situation reminded Fang Lang of a stalk of milk law in later generations: "No one can occupy Paris before France surrenders!" It turned out that Fang Lang didn''t believe that the French really liked surrender that much. After all, the French army during World War I still resisted tenaciously. But now, Fang Lang has a deep understanding of the speed of the French''s surrender. "Why are you censoring us? Who ordered you?" Fang Lang was not polite, and asked directly with a gun to the opponent''s head. Because Fang Lang discovered that the French officer was obviously targeting them, which made Fang Lang wonder if there was any conspiracy involved. Otherwise, why do other passengers who get off the plane, they don''t need to be reviewed. Just want to review their group of people? Is it because of racial discrimination again? Your mother! Modern France is almost becoming a black France, and you still come to discriminate against me? Hearing Fang Lang''s question, the lieutenant hesitated. Fang Lang saw that the lieutenant was unwilling to answer his question, so he opened the safety of the pistol without hesitation. The lieutenant''s face turned pale instantly, and he said quickly: "We are ordered to review the treasure hunting team that may come to Germany to find the * * treasure." After hearing this, Fang Lang was speechless. We are such a large group of people, it looks like a treasure hunting team. The treasure hunting team will sneak into the village no matter what, dont shoot guns! As for the famous treasure such as the ** treasure, Fang Lang has naturally heard of it a long time ago. But Fang Lang didn''t know the whereabouts of the treasure, so he never thought about looking for it. Unexpectedly, just after entering Germany, the French occupying army took it as a treasure hunter who came to find the treasure. In fact, Fang Lang felt that instead of looking for possible treasure places in Germany and Austria, the Allies should directly let Switzerland hand over the wealth deposited by the Germans in Swiss banks. According to the documentary records that Fang Lang watched later, a lot of wealth that Germany took from Europe was deposited in Swiss banks. Unfortunately, after the U.S. government negotiated with the Swiss government, it only asked the Swiss bank to return more than 200 million U.S. dollars in German government property. The wealth deposited in the Swiss bank in the private name has never been withdrawn from the Swiss bank. Because most of the depositors have died in the war. Later, when many descendants of depositors went to the Swiss bank to withdraw money, they were asked by the Swiss bank to provide the depositor''s death certificate and the relationship with the depositor. The government was unable to issue a death certificate due to the chaotic situation at the time. Therefore, later the U.S. statistical agency calculated that the deposits that could not be withdrawn from Swiss banks simply because of the death of depositors amounted to more than 7 billion U.S. dollars. However, in order to obtain loan funds for post-war reconstruction from Swiss banks, countries such as Britain and France promised not to pursue these wealth. This made the neutral country Switzerland the biggest winner in the European war besides the United States. And harvested the greatest wealth without bloodshed. Of course, none of this has anything to do with Fang Lang. Fang Lang now just wants to recruit qualified talents in Germany. "Which eye of yours looks at us like a treasure hunting team? Is there such a blatant treasure hunting team?" The French lieutenant didn''t know what he was thinking. He obviously regarded them as a large treasure hunting team with clear clues. This made Fang Lang very helpless. If I knew where the treasures of the German government were, I would have found an opportunity to sneak into Germany to make a fortune as early as the war, and I still have to wait until now. "sorry sir. I just saw that you are coming by special plane, and there are many people, so." Here, Fang Lang was really laughed at by the French lieutenant''s strange brain circuit. The special plane came over, didn''t you ever think that other people are people with status? Isn''t this causing trouble for your own chief? Fang Lang really didn''t want to talk to him anymore. "Call your superior! I must have a good chat with your superior." The lieutenant of the French army was obviously relieved, knowing that his little life was saved, But when he thought of calling the officer, he became a little sad again. At this time, he can be seen that the person in front of him who is confident to see his chief may really be the same person as he said. In this case, he doesn''t have to worry about his own life, but his black hat may be a little dangerous. "Sir, not sir, me." This kid obviously didn''t want his chief to know that he had done something stupid, and wanted Fang Lang to let him go. But how could Fang Lang get used to his faults, hit his head with a gun, let go of his hand and said: "Get up, call, I don''t want to talk nonsense with you anymore." Fang Lang kicked the French lieutenant from behind, signaling him to open the door and go out to make a call. The French lieutenant had no choice but to bite the bullet and open the door of the interrogation room, raised his hands, and walked out first. The French soldiers outside saw the situation, and drew out their guns to aim at this side. The guards who were also waiting outside also noticed the abnormality, and they all drew their guns and aimed at the French soldiers around them. For a while, the scene was full of gunpowder. Fang Lang stood behind the French lieutenant, avoiding exposing himself to the guns of the French soldiers, and whispered to the French lieutenant: "If you don''t want things to get out of hand, get your men to put down their guns." The French lieutenant was shocked when he saw the situation outside, and said quickly: "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, everyone put down your guns, this is the Allied Forces. I will call the officer first." Hearing the lieutenant''s words, the French soldiers were very straightforward and directly lowered their guns. Fang Lang''s guards did not hesitate to step forward and disarm these French soldiers. Zhuang Xintian also quickly stood beside Fang Lang, and whispered to Fang Lang: "Boss, are you okay!" Shaking his head, Fang Lang signaled Zhuang Xintian to take the French lieutenant to make a call. Fortunately, this is the office area, and there are no other airport passengers. Otherwise, if the situation here is seen by the passengers at the airport, the French will probably lose face. After thinking about it, Fang Lang said to Zhuang Xintian: "Tell the soldiers to unload their bullets and return the guns to them! We are allies, don''t make each other too ugly." "Yes, boss!" All the French soldiers breathed a sigh of relief. Fang Lang didn''t care about them, just found a place to sit down, and lit a cigar. He is not afraid that the French will come to reinforce them and surround them. Now the French soldiers here are actually similar to hostages. If the other party wants to expand their influence, Fang Lang will no longer be polite to him. Soon, an officer wearing a French major''s uniform was sitting in a jeep, and stopped outside the airport office building with a sudden brake. In a hurry, he rushed directly to the office building. I dont know what the French lieutenant told his chief. The chief didnt seem to think that the office building at this time would be in danger. Instead, he rushed into the office as if he was going back to his own home, without even looking at the surrounding situation, and went straight to find the French lieutenant, which was a big blow. Fang Lang knows French, and he understands it as soon as he hears it. This French lieutenant obviously did not make such a mistake for the first time. He was directly scolded bloody, but he did not dare to speak out. The major of the French army was still angry after cursing, kicked him hard, and then turned his head to look at the surrounding situation. I dont know if they were obviously relieved to see that the soldiers were still carrying weapons on their backs. Finally, his gaze fell on Fang Lang, who was sitting on the sofa smoking a cigar with a leisurely expression on his face. Seeing Fang Lang''s complexion, he was obviously taken aback for a moment, and then looked at the Brazilian guards who were occupying a favorable position around him. Came directly in front of Fang Lang, and after standing at attention and saluting, he said: "Hello, sir, I am the German occupation army in France, Army Major Guillaume Remy, and I am very sorry for the misunderstanding that occurred today." Fang Lang saw that the other party''s attitude was very good, so he was not aggressive. Just waved his hand and said: "I am Captain of the Brazilian Navy, Fang Lang, Major Remy, please sit down." Fang Lang is not a big name, and he doesn''t even want to move his butt. Rather, Fang Lang, as a victim at this time, may be taken a step further by these French guys if he behaves too well and speaks well. The French are notoriously arrogant, so Fang Lang is even more arrogant than them today. Major Remy''s heart sank when he saw Fang Lang''s expressionless face. France is a big country. In his mind, as a French major, being able to come here to handle this small dispute in person is already giving Fang Lang a lot of face. Although Fang Lang has the rank of a colonel who does not know the true or false, but a second-rate country like Brazil actually plays a big game in front of him, which makes him feel that the other party is a little ignorant. However, for the sake of the overall situation, Major Remy still suppressed his dissatisfaction, and said to Fang Lang with a very professional smile: "Mr. Fang, I would like to express my apologies to you on behalf of my person for his impolite behavior." Hearing that he no longer called himself officer, but called himself by his name, Fang Lang smiled obviously because he didn''t want to be overwhelmed by his rank. Didn''t bother with the other party''s title, but said to Major Remy: "Mr. Major, the previous matter is indeed a misunderstanding, and the matter is over, so we don''t care about it anymore. I took the liberty to enter your occupied area this time and did not report in advance. It is true that I also have a problem. Now I want to pay a visit to the pier and get to know the chief of the occupying army. I wonder if I can help introduce him. " Major Remy was also relieved to see that Fang Lang did not continue to hold on to the matter just now. Hearing that the other party wanted to visit the chief of the occupying army, he obviously expressed his softness. smiled and said with satisfaction: "Of course, no problem! If you need it, I can call and make an appointment for you." Fang Lang still needs to make an appointment when he hears it, this score is really not small! But thinking about the chief of the occupying army of an entire state, he may be a general, and it is understandable to have a larger spectrum. "Okay, let''s find a place to rest first, if the officer has an answer, can you come to us?" "Oh! Mr. Fang hasn''t found a place to live yet? If so, I can take you to a hotel closer to the headquarters of our occupation army. Please rest assured that it is the closest place to the occupation army headquarters, so it is definitely the safest hotel in Stuttgart. " I don''t know if the other party really meant well, or if they didn''t want Fang Lang and the others to leave their sight, they said this on purpose. Fortunately, Fang Lang has no ghosts in his heart, so he doesn''t care. This place is unfamiliar, and it would be great to have someone from the local army lead everyone to find a place to rest. But hearing him say it was the safest hotel, Fang Lang was taken aback and asked: "What? Is Stuttgart still very unsafe now? Is there still German devils resisting?" (end of this chapter) Chapter 167: French occupying forces Chapter 167 French Occupation Army Major Remy saw that Fang Lang''s attitude was not bad, so he didn''t care too much and said: "There are indeed some remnants of **** who have not given up resistance, but please believe in the fighting will of our French army. These little mice will be found and wiped out by us soon." Its not good for you to mention anything, but you want to mention your French will to fight. How can I believe you. It seems that Germany is not really safe now! "Then, please work hard, Major Remy, and introduce us to the hotel where we will stay. Thank you very much." Turning his head to Zhuang Xintian again, he said: "Xintian, Major Remy said that there are remnants of guns nearby, and ordered the brothers to bring all the weapons and guys and stay vigilant. If there is a chance for us to encounter the remnants of the ****, we will do our duty as allies and help the allies eliminate these **** little mice. " Hearing that Fang Lang actually said that he had listened to his own warning before he put on his weapons and equipment, Remy felt that he was not well. You also said that you should do your duty as an ally to help you eliminate the remnants of corruption. Aren''t you pointing at the monk and scolding the bald donkey? Don''t believe in the combat effectiveness of our French army! Zhuang Xintian stood at attention and saluted after listening to Fang Lang''s order: "Yes, boss." Turn around and go to arrange. Major Remy hurriedly said: "Mr. Fang, don''t worry, don''t worry about safety issues, your team doesn''t need to be fully armed." Before Major Remy finished speaking, Fang Lang interrupted: "Major Remy, I''m sorry! I''m a timid person who is afraid of death! So, the guards around me must be fully armed so that I can sleep. Don''t worry, none of my guards will wear military uniforms, and all weapons and equipment will be covered by woolen coats, which will not make it difficult for your army. " After finishing speaking, he turned his head and said to the guards: "Everyone will return all the bullets of the friendly army to them. We are allies, so there is no need to worry about the friendly army being armed." Your mother! Major Remy was stunned. It turned out that all the bullets of the guards here were confiscated by the other party! There is something in the words! What do you mean don''t worry about friendly armies! This is for me! Seeing the guards on the other side returning the ammunition of various weapons to the French soldiers, Major Remy trembled with anger. Thanks to the fact that I have just straightened up, I feel that this is my place. It turned out that it was an illusion after a long time! The French soldiers around them even confiscated the bullets in their guns. That is to say, the other party has actually been disarming the French soldiers just now! No wonder, sitting on the sofa without lifting your butt. I learned a lesson today. Fortunately, I have a good temper and didn''t say anything nonsense, otherwise I might not be able to get out after entering here. Thinking about it is a moment of fear. also directly said that you are timid and afraid of death. I suspect that you are afraid that others will not die. I dont know if there will be any danger if such an armed force is brought near the headquarters of the occupation army. It seems that I will have to explain the situation to my superiors later. For a while, Major Remy was not good at expressing any objections. He could only watch the guards in full armor hang a Thomson submachine gun on the coat lining. Major Remy''s eyelids twitched as he watched. Fang Lang and others had no vehicles to use when they came to Stuttgart. It happened that with the help of the French occupying forces, a group of people took the French army jeep and passenger car to the city of Stuttgart. There are ruins along the way, and the taller buildings have obviously been bombed for a round. Pedestrians on the road are mostly yellow and thin, looking malnourished. Some people even have physical disabilities. This made Fang Lang see the cruelty of war again. When Fang Lang and the others came to bring the luxury hotel that Major Remy said, they couldn''t help but be puzzled. This is a building that has clearly just been restored. There are still workers on the outer wall who are doing renovations. But compared to most of the surrounding buildings, it is indeed very well preserved. Seeing the hotel in front of him that didn''t even have a signboard, Fang Lang didn''t say much. Under the guidance of Major Remy, everyone checked in in the lobby of the hotel. Major Remy dropped a sentence to make an appointment for Fang Lang to meet the commander of the occupying army, and left without looking back. Fang Lang smiled but did not speak. Originally, Fang Lang thought that Germany should have started post-war reconstruction at this time, But the situation seen now obviously does not mean any preparations for reconstruction. I dont know if this is only the case in the French-occupied areas, or in the occupied areas of other countries. However, thinking about the situation of Global Trades acquisition of shipyards in Germany, there should still be reconstruction in some places. Of course, none of this has anything to do with Fang Lang. The more dilapidated the place is, the more suitable talents he should be able to recruit. After all, talents have to eat. Maybe high-tech talents don''t have Fang Lang''s share, but if Fang Lang remembers correctly, Stuttgart''s automobile industry is very developed. Porsche''s factory is in Stuttgart, and Porsche is the main tank manufacturer of the German army. Fang Lang does not want to recruit many talents with experience in tank design and manufacturing. But people who manufacture and produce cars can always be found! Originally Fang Lang thought that he would have to wait a long time to receive a reply from the French occupying forces, but he did not expect that Major Remy would call Fang Lang''s room two hours later. It was agreed to go to the headquarters of the French occupying forces at 9:00 am the next day to meet Colonel Chatham, the commander of the occupying forces in Stuttgart. As for whether the French army will retaliate against what Fang Lang did at the airport. Fang Lang believes that Major Remy should not be so stupid as to report his stupidity directly to his chief! Of course, even if Major Remy reported to his officer, Fang Lang was not worried. My identity is not an ordinary businessman, although the purpose of my visit this time is for commercial activities. But his military status is a very favorable amulet. No matter what the relationship between France and Brazil is, it is impossible to do anything to the colonel and officer of the opposing army. And this time it was the commander of the occupation force of Stuttgart, not the commander of the state occupation force, who met with me this time. The purpose of the other party must be to be able to communicate on a peer-to-peer basis. So, Fang Lang had a good night''s sleep in the hotel with peace of mind. The next day, after having a not-so-rich German breakfast at the hotel, Fang Lang and others took the vehicle arranged by the hotel to the headquarters of the French occupying forces in Stuttgart. After an inspection and notification, Fang Lang finally met the commander of the French occupying forces in Stuttgart. An elderly man who looked a bit vicissitudes, at least over fifty years old, because he had white hair all over his head, and his complexion was full of wrinkles. "Hello, Colonel Chatham! I am Fang Lang, Captain of the Brazilian Navy. Nice to meet you!" Fang Lang stepped forward to give a military salute, and stretched out his hand. But because he is not wearing a military uniform, he looks a little awkward. Colonel Chatham looked Fang Lang up and down, and reached out to hold Fang Lang together after returning the gift. "Hello, Colonel Fang! Welcome to Stuttgart. Is there anything I can do for you?" Seeing that Colonel Chatham obviously looked like the owner of the city, Fang Lang smiled and cut to the point: "Colonel Chatham, I came here this time to recruit some skilled workers for the family business, but because I don''t know much about the local situation. So, want to get some help from you. " Fang Lang''s words made Colonel Chatham frowned slightly. He was a veteran who was full of hatred for the Germans. He didn''t want the Germans to easily return to normal life. However, the opponent is an ally, not his subordinate, so he certainly cannot say these words directly. Fang Lang noticed the slight expression of Colonel Chatham''s frown, and he was a little worried whether the old man had misunderstood him. Come here to recruit someone, there is no need to object! Just when Fang Lang was still wondering, he heard Colonel Chatham say in a deep voice: "Colonel Fang, Germany is still undergoing post-war liquidation. I wonder who you want to recruit in Germany?" Noticing that the other party mentioned post-war liquidation, Fang Lang had a guess in his mind. He probably thought that the other party thought he was going to rescue war criminals in the name of recruiting. This must be made clear, otherwise wait a minute, I really think that I came here to cause sabotage, and it would be embarrassing to detain people like myself. "Colonel Chatham, please rest assured, we are the Allies, and I have also participated in the European War as a soldier of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. I will never do anything that harms the interests of the Allies. The main reason why I came to Germany this time is because, after this war, we found that Brazil has a serious shortage in the basic industry. I dont even have the production capacity of cars, so this time I came here first to recruit some skilled workers who have experience in car manufacturing and production. I believe that this will not damage the interests of your country, because after we poach German workers, when Germany wants to rise again in the future, they will slow down due to lack of enough industrial workers. " Speaking of this, Fang Lang noticed that the other party''s brows began to gradually relax. As soon as Fang Lang saw this situation, Fang Lang understood what kind of person the Frenchman in front of him was. continued: "Of course, the reason why I came to see you this time is also to show respect for the allies. Secondly, I was also thinking about it. The war has just ended, and the country is very difficult everywhere. See if I can generate some income for Mr. Colonel. So, this time, I plan to pay the local garrison chief three dollars as an intermediary fee for every excellent technician recruited locally. However, these personnel must be recruited by ourselves and have real technical skills. " Fang Lang noticed that the old man''s eyes began to glow. It seems that money is really a good thing! As soon as it was mentioned that each good mechanic could give the garrison commander three dollars, the old man''s eyes changed. A smile also appeared on the corner of his mouth. In order to prevent the old man from thinking that he was a human trafficker and stuffing all the refugees into himself, Fang Lang quickly said that he only wanted truly skilled skilled workers. I am recruiting workers, not immigrating, so I must pick and choose! There are many German immigrants in Brazil now, if there are still a large number of Germans entering Brazil. At that time, Germans will become the main population of Brazil, and it will not be a loss. "You mean you need to recruit employees in Germany, and you can give me three dollars for every one you recruit, right?" Colonel Chatham''s voice was urgent. "Yes, you can understand it this way. I am going to conduct a one-week recruitment campaign in the hotel where I am temporarily staying. After recruiting enough people, I will leave Germany and return to Brazil with the personnel. I hope Colonel Chatham can provide convenience." (end of this chapter) Chapter 168: Visit Polman Chapter 168 Visiting Polman After listening to Fang Lang''s words, Colonel Chatham smiled and waved his hands: "Haha. Colonel Fang, we are allies, and we are also friends. This kind of thing is not so complicated. I helped with this, and you dont need to hold a job fair. We have a provisional government under the occupation army. I''ll directly notify them now to gather all the personnel according to the type of technical work you need, and let you choose, isn''t it all right? " Is this still possible? Is this the way these countries plundered talents in Germany? So exciting! I really like. "Oh! Is it still possible? I don''t know if there will be restrictions on the industry of the personnel we recruit." Fang Lang''s question immediately alerted Colonel Chatham, staring at Fang Lang and saying: "Besides those in the automotive industry, what kind of people do you want to recruit?" Chatham stared at Fang Lang and did not dodge, but looked into the other''s eyes and said: "You also know that Stuttgart is the location of the Mauser factory in Germany. If I recruit some gunsmiths here and go back to Brazil to produce rifles for us, it is very reasonable, right!" Fang Lang noticed that Chatham''s gaze gradually became unfriendly, like a lion ready to be angry at any time. Just when Fang Lang thought that there was no chance. Colonel Chatham slapped the table and said: "Gunsmiths must be five dollars apiece." I''ll go, Fang Lang feels like he has encountered a psychopath, if you want to add money, just say it! Did you say anything, and stared at me fiercely, making me think you were going to eat people. As a result, you told me to add more money. Its okay to add more money, and you ended up increasing from three dollars to five dollars per person. It seems that Colonel Chatham has a bitter background! Probably haven''t seen any big money. At this time Fang Lang couldn''t help but look at Colonel Chatham''s hands on the table, which turned out to be the hands of working people. That is to say, the colonel should have been a manual laborer engaged in agricultural production before he became a soldier. When I thought of my offer of three dollars per person, I had already reserved room for the other party to raise the price, but the other party did not carry out any bargaining, and directly accepted my offer. Very good, it seems that the other party is not a greedy person, Fang Lang said he likes it very much. stretched out his hand to Colonel Chatham, and said firmly in his mouth: "make a deal!" "Haha. Refreshing!" Colonel Chatham held Fang Lang''s hand tightly. "Colonel Chatham, if we directly recruit personnel through the provisional government, it won''t have any bad influence on you, right?" Fang Lang looked at the pleasing French colonel in front of him, and asked in a low voice: "What''s the problem? I''m fifty-six! It''s time for me to retire. The big deal is to let me retire! I can''t wait! The important thing is that I can earn money from you. When I return to my hometown, I can buy a wine estate and live a happy life. Otherwise, now that I am retired, I can only return to the farmland to continue farming. " This can be regarded as a shallow exchange of words, and it is too short to expose it. Hearing what Colonel Chatham said, he didn''t understand what he should do. Fang Lang was not worried that Chatham would lie to him, at worst, he would directly arrange a special plane to send the people back after recruiting a group of people. He can''t keep it! He will not be able to receive fees for those recruited later. "Haha Colonel Chatham, please rest assured that I will let you buy a big wine estate." With the help of Colonel Chatham, Fang Lang soon met the mayor of the Stuttgart interim government. The mayor seemed to speak very little, and after hearing Colonel Chatham''s request, he looked up and down Fang Lang with a little surprise. means that we will fully cooperate. Fang Lang knew that the German in front of him would be an important middleman. Whether he could recruit truly useful talents depended on whether this person would really help. In Colonel Chatham''s office, after continuing to communicate some details, Fang Lang took some special passes and borrowed a batch of transportation vehicles before saying goodbye to Colonel Chatham and returning to the hotel. Fang Lang, who returned to the hotel, immediately ordered Qi Qingshan to take a special pass to the temporary city hall of Stuttgart and invite Mr. Mayor Jonas to the hotel for dinner. Because it was still early, Fang Lang didn''t have the habit of staying in the hotel to get moldy. As an important town in the southwest of Germany, it is also an important industrial town. Now that you are here, of course you have to visit around! Stuttgart is the cradle of Germany''s automobile industry. Not only Porsche, but also Mercedes-Benz, were born in this southwestern city of Germany. Because of the special pass, the convoy''s passage in the city has become unimpeded. But after going around a few places, Fang Lang gradually lost interest. After all, Stuttgart is now full of ruins and helpless people. The once prosperous industrial town can only be found through dilapidated factories. Since he couldn''t see anything, Fang Lang ordered the driver to go directly to the address of Ante Polman provided by Mrs. Henderson. This Mr. Ante Polman did not live in the urban area, but in a two-story building in the suburbs of Stuttgart. When Fang Lang''s convoy came to the front of the small building, the two children who were chasing on the lawn in front of the small building ran into the house in fright. A German assistant in the assistant team brought by Fang Lang stepped forward and knocked on the door, and explained his purpose of coming. Quickly returned to the front of the car and said to Fang Lang: "Boss, Mr. Polman is at home, and he invited you to his house to have a chat." After hearing what he said, Fang Lang nodded, but did not get out of the car. Looking at a slightly dilapidated house five houses away, there was nothing unusual about that house from the outside. However, Fang Lang''s intuition told him that someone in that house was looking at him with obvious hostility. This was Fang Lang''s strongest intuition since he left the battlefield. Fang Lang understood that there must be some dangerous enemies somewhere, either there were a lot of people, or there was a sniper rifle pointed at him at this moment. Because Fang Lang felt a hint of danger. The assistant saw that Fang Lang didn''t move, but just looked in one direction, and was about to get up and look in that direction, but Fang Lang stopped him in time: "Don''t move, don''t look anywhere, act like nothing happened." After finishing speaking, he looked at Zhuang Xintian, who was sitting in the co-pilot seat and looking at himself, and said: "Order the lead car to advance two hundred meters to investigate, focusing on whether there are hidden enemies in the houses on both sides of the road." Pointing to the house he was looking at, he said: "Let the soldiers of the No. 2 car go around to the back of that house and touch it to have a look. There is a problem with this house." Hearing Fang Lang''s order, Zhuang Xintian''s eyes were fixed. Push the door and get off the car, pretending to be nonchalant, come to the window of the head car, light a cigarette, and give an order. The five soldiers in the car immediately raised their vigilance, raised the Thomson submachine gun on their laps, and loaded the bolt. Seeing that several people had finished checking their weapons, Zhuang Xintian nodded, patted on the car door, and motioned for several people to set off. The soldiers in the car lowered the windows, pointed their guns at the houses on both sides, and slowly moved forward to investigate. Zhuang Xintian slowly walked back to the No. 2 car, opened the rear door, and pointed to the house Fang Lang mentioned in a hidden place. ordered in a low voice: "The officer suspects that there is a problem in that house. You go around from the rear and touch it in. If you encounter enemies, you are allowed to fire. Do you understand?" "clear!" Then there was the sound of the soldiers pulling the bolt. Zhuang Xintian closed the car door and did not return to Fang Lang''s car. He was afraid that you really had enemies, so he stared at the waves based on his actions, so he walked directly across the lawn of Polman''s house and walked towards Polman''s house. Didn''t forget to call the German assistant over. Fang Lang saw what Zhuang Xintian meant at a glance. This was using his body as bait. If there were gunmen outside, he would definitely suspect that he was a big shot in the team. Fang Lang was very moved, but he shook his head. If he was an enemy, he would definitely not attack Zhuang Xintian now. After all, the commander of the convoy will give orders to the vehicles one by one! So Fang Lang didn''t move, but continued to look in that direction. When the head car passed by that house, the sense of danger of that house began to disappear slowly. Obviously the other party is already alert. But Fang Lang didn''t care. This was his first time in Germany, and this enemy shouldn''t be targeting him specifically. Fang Lang suspected that the remnants of the Communist Party were hiding somewhere, and wanted to attack the occupying army. Maybe seeing the size of Fang Lang''s team, he wanted to try his luck. It''s a pity that Fang Lang''s reaction obviously startled the other party. Especially when the lead car passed by his house, the other party immediately gave up the attack plan. He was a little curious. It was obvious that he came here on a temporary basis, which meant that the other party was not here for him. Of course, Fang Lang doesn''t believe that Mrs. Henderson will reveal herself, that she will invite Mr. Polman to work for her, and let the killer come to ambush her in advance. Because, if you want to ambush yourself, the location of the house is really bad, and the view will obviously be blocked by the flower bed in front of his house. Besides, there are a lot of places suitable for ambush on the way here, why not ambush somewhere, but in such a place that is not suitable for ambush? Now that the sense of danger has disappeared, Fang Lang didn''t care, shook his head with a smile, got out of the car and walked directly to Polman''s house. The other guards in the convoy had all got out of the car and stood guard with weapons when Zhuang Xintian was walking towards Polman''s house. Seeing Fang Lang get off the car, three soldiers immediately surrounded him, using their bodies to block the enemy''s sight from three directions. Fang Lang glanced at the movements of the soldiers, and Fang Lang nodded. In general, this action of protecting important officials is still very good. However, it would be even better if a few black umbrellas could be opened to block more views. Zhuang Xintian in the house saw Fang Lang coming, and hurried out, put his hand on the gun handle at his waist, and stared at the direction of the house. All these things that happened at the door were seen by Polman, which made him a little shocked, obviously not understanding what happened. Fang Lang looked at the unattractive short and thin man in his thirties, stretched out his hand, and said enthusiastically: "Mr. Polman, I''m sorry, I took the liberty to visit and surprised you! Don''t worry, the soldiers found some abnormalities. It will be over soon, can we go in and have a chat? " Originally, Fang Lang wanted to visit Polman as an ordinary businessman, but after doing this, it was obviously impossible. After all, if you say these people are bodyguards! Now no one would bring so many bodyguards with them whenever they went out. (end of this chapter) Chapter 169: catch mice Chapter 169 Catching mice Pollman was very sure that he had never seen the young man in front of him. The German assistant just now gave a brief introduction to Polman. I heard that the other party said that the Henderson family recommended me to the other party, so the other party''s boss came to visit me all the way. This moved Polman very much, so he accepted the other party''s visit without hesitation. But he didn''t expect that after the German young man left, what happened next made him a little inexplicable. However, the calm temperament emanating from the young man still attracted Polman''s attention. Porman looked at the young man in front of him, while reaching out to hold the other''s hand, he said in proficient English: "Mr. Fang, it''s okay, please come in and talk." As he spoke, he guided Fang Lang into the house. Fang Lang was worried at first that he could not communicate well because of the language barrier with the other party, but he didn''t expect the other party to speak English very well. This made Fang Lang''s prepared translation seem useless. I saw Polman''s wife and two children standing in the living room a little awkwardly. Fang Lang greeted Mrs. Polman with a smile, and took out two chocolates from his pocket and stuffed them into the children''s hands. smiled at the two of them. The two children thanked Fang Lang timidly at Polman''s gesture. Hearing the child reply in German, he obviously didn''t understand English, so Fang Lang didn''t speak. Instead, like a magic trick, another piece of chocolate candy was conjured from the ears of the two children and handed to the two children. The eyes of the two children widened, and they looked at Fang Lang in disbelief, their eyes full of surprise. Mr. Polman saw Fang Lang''s enthusiasm for teasing the children from the side, and he slowly let go of his heart. Thanked Fang Lang again and again, and directed Fang Lang to sit in the living room. Fang Lang smiled and touched the heads of the two children, followed Polman to the sofa in the living room and sat down. It''s not that Fang Lang doesn''t want to talk to the two children, but unfortunately he doesn''t understand German, so he can only look at Pollman with regret and say in English: "Sir, your two children are so cute, I like children very much. It''s a pity that I don''t know German, so I can''t communicate with them. " Pollman laughed after hearing Fang Lang''s words. After all, adults like others to praise their children. "Mr. Fang, when you are still young and have your own children, you will know how troublesome it is to raise children." "Okay! My father said that I was an uneasy child since I was a child. It seems that all adults see their children in this way, right? " Porman laughed loudly after hearing Fang Lang''s words. In an instant, the relationship between the two was drawn closer. At this time, in the backyard of the house in the distance, five marine soldiers had already sneaked over the courtyard wall of the backyard, and tiptoed into the house with a Thomson submachine gun. Soon, the two soldiers reached the back door silently. They leaned against the door and listened to the movement inside. It was found that there was no abnormal sound inside. The soldier near the window turned his head slightly and looked into the room through the window, and soon found two figures leaning against the corner of the front window with the curtain raised, sneaking out to avoid observation from the road. Judging by their actions, they should be professionals. The angle of observation is very hidden, and there is absolutely no abnormality seen from the front. But the strange thing is that neither of them is carrying a weapon. This is good news for the fighters. The soldier withdrew his head and made several gestures to the four comrades by the door. Several people understood and nodded. One of them stretched out his finger and started counting down, three, two, one. With a bang, the back door was violently kicked open by a soldier. The four fighters by the door filed in as soon as the door opened, and two soldiers pointed their guns at the two people by the front window immediately. The soldiers following behind began to cross search for targets from left to right, holding guns all the way, and searched for the indoors. The soldiers moved very fast, and when the two Germans who were watching by the window realized it, they were already aimed at by guns. So they could only stare dumbfounded at the soldiers rushing in, and quickly raised their hands to surrender, signaling that they were not hostile. It''s a pity that the fighters aimed directly at them. Two fighters stepped forward and motioned for them to lie on the ground. The two of them could only obey orders obediently. After seeing the two lying on the ground, one held a gun on guard, and the other found a rope in the room and tied their hands and feet from behind. Soon the other fighters searching the room returned safely. Apart from these two people, there were no other people in the room. This made several people breathe a sigh of relief. Then, the soldiers began to check around every corner of the house. Soon, they found weapons and equipment in a hidden corner of the basement. At the top is a Mauser 98K rifle with a scope, and there are four or five rifles and three or four submachine guns below. Now the soldiers have confirmed that these two Germans are indeed the problematic people. It''s a pity that the soldiers couldn''t understand the language, and there was no way to interrogate them. They could only assign a soldier to report the results to the chief and wait for new orders to be conveyed. At this time, Fang Lang was talking happily with Polman. "Mr. Polman, I heard from Mrs. Henderson that you came up with a technology called a variable-sweep wing? Is that so?" Pollman quickly waved his hands and said: "No, no, I didn''t propose this technology, I just found out that this technology is really an epoch-making technology after a period of research. That''s why I recommended it to Mrs. Henderson. However, this technology is not yet mature. We need to organize a large number of people and perform a large number of calculations to know whether this technology can be turned into reality. " Hearing what Polman said, Fang Lang nodded thoughtfully and said: "Then how far has Mr. Pollman''s research been?" This question made Polman a little embarrassed, and he moved his buttocks while sitting on the sofa before saying: "Actually, the research team of Messerschmitt Company is the one who studies this technology the most, but they have all been taken away by the Americans." Fang Lang is a little strange, why does he feel that the Polman in front of him is not very reliable? "Oh! Aren''t you part of this team?" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Polman''s face became slightly hotter, but in the end he bit the bullet and said: Actually, I am not a research and development person, I am good at engineering management. I pitched the technology to the Hendersons mainly to get a job, and apparently I failed. " Upon hearing this, Fang Lang was stunned. Isn''t this playing him? After listening to Mrs. Henderson''s words, Fang Lang thought he had picked up a big treasure. It turned out that this guy was bragging in order to gain trust. But where did this guy learn about these advanced aircraft design theories? "Oh! Thank you for your honesty, Mr. Polman. May I know where you learned about these advanced technical ideas?" Seeing that Fang Lang didn''t mean to get angry and blame him, Polman let out a long sigh of relief. I am engaged in aircraft manufacturing engineering management, and I am mainly responsible for turning the ideas of designers into reality. Participated in the manufacture of many types of test aircraft, so I got to know many excellent aircraft designers. So, I also came into contact with a lot of strange aircraft manufacturing theories. " Now, Fang Lang understood what this Polman was in charge of. It seems that there is such a twist! Isn''t this guy''s ability just what I need now? Maybe he can''t design airplanes, but he can manage a start-up aircraft factory well! Actually, what Fang Lang didn''t know was that the reason why Polman was so honest was that he was frightened by the actions of the guards outside the door. This made him understand that the young man in front of him was not a simple character, and it might kill him. Fang Lang smiled, but didn''t express his opinion immediately. Instead, he continued to ask: "Oh? Can you tell me that you have been exposed to those strange theories?" Pollman carefully looked at Fang Lang''s face, and seeing that there was nothing unusual, he glanced at his wife sitting in the restaurant with a child and eating chocolate. Only then lowered his voice and approached Fang Lang in a low voice: "There are a lot of weird theories, but none of these are secrets. But there is one thing that I know the aviation world is not a secret. " Seeing this guy''s mysterious face made Fang Lang feel a little funny. I came from a later life, so what secret did you mention that I don''t know? Maybe it is top secret information for everyone now, and it has been declassified and circulated on the Internet in later generations. But looking at this guy''s mysterious face, he just doesn''t know if it''s true or not. Don''t wait until he''s bragging again like when he was facing Mrs. Henderson. Fang Lang didn''t move, just quietly waiting for his next words. Finding that Fang Lang didn''t cooperate and approached him, Polman looked around vigilantly and then whispered: "Have you heard of the model Go229?" Fang Lang is only a crew member in his later generations, and he really doesn''t know much about airplanes. At most, he brushed some superficial knowledge about airplanes on his mobile phone when he was bored on board. What is this Go229? He is very sure that he has never heard of it. If it is BF109 and Stuka Fang Lang, you may have heard of it, but this Go229 Fang Lang really has no impression at all. Fang Lang didn''t understand why Polman would mention such a model that he had never heard of. shook his head at Polman. Seeing Fang Lang''s movements, Pohlman''s eyes flickered slightly. Low voice: "This is a model that has not been mass-produced. It was originally developed by two brothers, Walter Horton and Rema Horton, to meet Air Marshal Goering''s three thousand requirements. The so-called three thousand means to reach a speed of 1,000 kilometers per hour, carry 1,000 kilograms of explosives, and attack a target 1,000 kilometers away. At first, all the designers said this task was impossible, but the Horton brothers said they could do it. So Marshal Goering agreed to let them be responsible for research and development. The aircraft they designed uses an extremely rare flying wing layout. The fuselage and wings of this layout are almost integrated, which can minimize the resistance in flight. " The flying wing layout obviously touched Fang Lang''s blind spot of knowledge, which made him a little confused, not knowing what it meant. But from here Fang Lang also discovered that the guy in front of him was indeed a professional in the aircraft industry. Maybe he is not a genius in aircraft design, but he is definitely well-informed. Pollman obviously noticed Fang Lang''s expression. He didn''t think it was strange, he took out a pen and paper from the drawer under the coffee table, and with a few random strokes on the notebook, he outlined an almost triangular shape of an airplane. Fang Lang stared at the shape of the airplane, his eyes fixed, and he couldn''t believe his eyes. Today is the Mid-Autumn Festival. My brother here wishes all the readers, the full moon and everyone, the reunion of the family and the country, the family reunion, the full moon and people are more round, Happy Mid-Autumn Festival! (end of this chapter) Chapter 170: Polmans Secret Chapter 170 The Secret Pollman Holds The shape of the aircraft that Polman sketched casually in his notebook made Fang Lang discover the shadow of the later Yankee B2 stealth bomber. At this moment, Fang Lang actually had a feeling of time and space confusion, which made him very doubtful whether the Polman in front of him might be a reborn person like him. Or maybe the designer who designed this aircraft is a time traveler. Pollman didn''t look up and pay attention to Fang Lang''s eyes, but continued to paint while saying: "Because this aircraft has not been mass-produced, not many people know about it. But I happened to be fortunate enough to participate in his test aircraft manufacturing work. Unfortunately, at the end of the war, the authorities ordered the destruction of all technical data on flying wing research and the aircraft that had been produced. Because the war ended too quickly, all the materials have been destroyed. However, two of the prototypes fell into American hands. " At this moment, Fang Lang felt that the Polman in front of him seemed to be a Bai Xiaosheng in the German aviation industry. Hearing his explanation, Fang Lang understood why he felt that this guy was so similar to the B2 bomber. Maybe the American B2 bomber was developed on the basis of this Go229! Fang Lang thought that the secret that Polman talked about was this plane, so although he was surprised, it didn''t feel like it was really secret. After all, I have seen his follow-up model. Pollman also noticed that Fang Lang was not very surprised by the news. He lowered his voice again: "Do you know what kind of secret this plane has?" Unexpectedly, Polman would betray the truth. Looking at his expression, Fang Lang remembered B2''s characteristic of being invisible. Unable to stare, he sat up straight and said: "Stealth?" No way! Can this Go229 be invisible? This is half a century earlier than B2! Has the German black technology been so powerful? And Polman was taken aback when he heard Fang Lang''s words, and said in disbelief: "How do you know this? Not many people know this secret." Seeing Polman''s surprised expression that his jaw was about to drop to the ground, Fang Lang smiled and didn''t explain too much. Did you tell him that you knew it from the future? "Don''t worry, I know a lot more. You know so much about these aircraft, it seems that you are very familiar with the designers of these aircraft, right?" Polman hadn''t recovered from Fang Lang''s shock of knowing the secret for a while. In fact, this secret is not even known to the Americans today. The United States only treats the Go229 test aircraft back to China as a long-range bomber. Therefore, the Horton brothers, the designer of this aircraft, did not attract the attention of the Americans. In the end, Rema Horton went to Argentina and was responsible for designing the aircraft for Argentina. In the end, due to Argentina''s economic recession and weak industrial base, Rema Holden lost its use. It took a long time for Polman to come back to his senses. After hearing Fang Lang''s question, Polman quickly replied: "Yes, sir. I am very familiar with the designers of the German aviation industry. Those who have real materials and those who are liars, I know very well. However, many excellent aircraft designers have been taken away by the United States and the Soviet Union. There are not many designers left now. " "Very well, I am going to set up an aircraft factory in Brazil, and now I need to start from scratch. I want to hire you to manage this aircraft factory for me, or an aircraft manufacturing company. Not sure if you would. " Fang Lang doesn''t have any suitable candidates on hand to build an aircraft manufacturing plant. Although Polman is not an aircraft designer, he is engaged in aircraft manufacturing engineering management. Such a person is actually more suitable for managing an aircraft factory than a designer. The aircraft designers are the chief engineers of various specialized models. "Of course, sir. I''d be more than happy. I''ve been out of work for months. If you don''t mind my incompetence, I''d be more than happy." Polman''s performance did not look like a qualified applicant at all, but Fang Lang looked at the situation in the house, and he understood what was going on. Obviously life was not easy for them after the war. found that Fang Lang was not a difficult boss. Pollman summoned up the courage to speak: "Sir, I still have many colleagues, and now they are all unemployed at home, living a very difficult life, I don''t know" The meaning is obvious, I want to find a job for my former colleagues. Since Fang Lang wants to set up his own aircraft factory, of course he hopes that the more professionals the better. However, Fang Lang''s goal in the early stage was not to directly become an advanced aircraft manufacturing enterprise. Also, he knows that there are a lot of people in ** who are fanatical racists, and he doesn''t want to recruit some of this garbage to his company in the future. "Mr. Polman, you want to find a way out for your old colleague, I have no problem, but I want to make it clear to you. First of all, my aircraft factory is starting from scratch. The plan is to convert the retired transport aircraft of the US military into passenger aircraft to train qualified workers. Then, they will start to design and produce agricultural aircraft or two-seat trainer aircraft by themselves. From piston engine aircraft to jet engine aircraft development. Therefore, it may be difficult for those who joined the company in the early stage to directly start the design and manufacture of advanced aircraft. You need to make this clear to them. " Porman looked at the young man in front of him with some surprise. He was a very pragmatic young man, and he didn''t directly want to build the most advanced aircraft factory in the world. The factory''s development route planning is very clear, and the mind is very clear. is a very assertive and own-minded boss. This kind of person cannot be fooled casually, which made him unconsciously start to become cautious. "I understand what you mean, boss, don''t worry! Now everyone wants to fill their stomachs first and support their families. Absolutely no radical ideas. " No matter what Polman said, Fang Lang actually didn''t like ** in his heart. So Fang Lang spoke directly to Polman and said: "Secondly, my factory is in Brazil, and you will have many Brazilians and Chinese in the factory. I know that many Germans are supporters of **. Has strong racist thoughts and will discriminate against other races. If there is such a person, I will directly ask him to eat a gun. So, if you want to save some of your countrymen from the mud that is now Germany, you also need to keep your eyes open. Because of the people you recruit, I assume you''re sponsoring them. If these problems happen to them, you will be implicated too. do you understand me? " This made Polman lower his head. He knew that what Fang Lang said was true. There are indeed many people in Germany who are loyal fans of **. They only recognize people who are also Aryans, and other peoples are inferior peoples. Have strong hostility towards such people. There are also some good people with good conduct. As a former colleague, he knows very well that those people have excellent qualities; And those people are indeed, as Fang Lang said, they are hopeless Christian believers. "Sir, I understand what you mean! I also know your selection criteria. Is character more important than ability? " Hearing Polman''s summary, Fang Lang laughed. This is really an interesting person. The comprehension ability is very good, so you dont have to worry about poor communication in the future. Pollman noticed Fang Lang''s smile, and he felt a little more relaxed, and continued to say to Fang Lang: "Sir, if the character is qualified, what kind of talent do you want. I know a lot of talents. Do you have any specific targets that you want to recruit? " Hearing Polman''s words, Fang Lang was in a very happy mood. Of course, Fang Lang would be very happy if he could secretly poach a group of outstanding talents from the fingers of the United States and the Soviet Union. Moreover, Fang Lang is very clear that the German folks in this period actually hid many high-end talents. In the field of aircraft research, many people did not choose to give up their homeland because of the solicitation of the United States and the Soviet Union. It was not until a few years later that the United States issued a policy again to restrict the development of German aircraft, and many talents began to gradually flow out to other countries. I own a government-supported military industrial group in Brazil, although now my goal is simply to make some simple aircraft. But if our strength is sufficient, we will have the opportunity to receive research orders for military projects from the government. In order for our company to have the potential to do this, I think we need an advanced talent pool of aircraft designers and engine designers. If you know good jet engine researchers, I can also promise to establish a special institute for them to study advanced jet engines. Even more advanced rocket engine research talents are fine. I attach great importance to the research and development of new technologies. If necessary, I plan to use 15% of the aircraft company''s annual profit for research on new materials and technologies. I hope that in the future, my aircraft company can become a global aircraft manufacturing company, capable of producing military fighter jets and transport aircraft, as well as civilian passenger aircraft and transport aircraft. Of course, besides manufacturing fixed-wing aircraft, I also hope to enter the helicopter manufacturing industry. These are my personal expectations for aircraft manufacturing companies. If we can really develop to that point, maybe our company can become a veritable aviation giant. " Hearing Fang Lang''s rhetoric, Polman felt numb all over. Looking at the young man in front of him is like looking at a monster. Such an ideal sounds great, but it is basically impossible to achieve it. What he didn''t know was that Fang Lang''s goal of catching up was the famous Boeing Company! Porman is very aware of his abilities. If he just manages an aircraft production line, he will definitely be fine. Or coordinating the supporting installation project of an experimental model, Polman also felt that it was a trivial matter. But if he wants to develop the company to such an extent, he definitely doesn''t have the ability. This made him start to show timidity. After all, the bodyguards he saw Fang Lang following were all professional fighters, if he didn''t achieve this lofty goal by then. Once the boss in front of him got angry and wanted to shoot him, wouldnt he be finished? So he looked at Fang Lang carefully and said: "Sir, if your goal is so ambitious, my ability may be" Polman''s performance made Fang Lang a little strange. Didn''t it mean that Europeans and Americans all think that they are number one in the world and are very confident? Why does this guy in front of him look so unconfident?

(end of this chapter) Chapter 171: snoopers identity Chapter 171 The Identity of the Snooper If Polman knew what Fang Lang was thinking, he would definitely cry out for being wronged. I am a talented person who dared to go to Bristol where I should be to sell myself based on my knowledge of variable-sweep wings. How could you not have confidence? But who made you feel so oppressive when you first met me? Especially when the soldiers surrounded Fang Lang in full armor to block bullets for him, it really scared him a little. And when watching Fang Lang teasing his child, Polman was sweating coldly behind his back, for fear that the young man in front of him would be dissatisfied and kill his whole family. If it weren''t for the fact that he couldn''t live anymore, he didn''t even want to communicate too much with the young man in front of him. It turned out that when he was in the British occupation area, he was able to apply for a visa to the UK to promote himself. But after hitting a wall in England, he returned to his hometown. My hometown is occupied by the French, but the French dont even give them the opportunity to work abroad. If you can''t even get a visa, you can only stay at home and eat your money. After these months of consumption, I have already used up all my wealth for so many years. If you still can''t find a job, the whole family may starve to death. Therefore, he is in an absolute position in front of Fang Lang, and he dare not disobey any of Fang Lang''s ideas. Until now, he didn''t even dare to ask Fang Lang''s name. "What? I don''t have confidence in myself! It doesn''t matter, no matter how tall a building is, it starts with laying the foundation. The future planning I mentioned should also start from the most basic. So don''t worry, you help me put up the shelves of the aircraft factory first. We fill in suitable talents little by little, and make the company bigger and stronger step by step. Maybe after a period of exercise, you will be able to do this job very easily? If you are really unable to do what you want in the later stage, I will also arrange a suitable position for you so that you can use your expertise. " Hearing that Fang Lang believed in him so much, Polman was very moved. Since the boss has already made plans for the future of the company, I just need to follow the boss''s plan to develop and grow step by step. Now my task is to recruit the talents needed by the boss from Germany. This job is not difficult for me. Because of my original job, I know countless professionals. Those people meet the requirements of the boss, and he has goals in mind. Just tidy up well and invite them one by one. will definitely be able to build the start-up team needed by the boss in the shortest possible time. Considering the boss''s needs for the future, he also began to think about it in his heart. See if you can find some high-end technical talents who have not been taken away by the United States and the Soviet Union. "Boss, thank you for your trust. From now on, I am your employee, and I will immediately compile a preliminary list for your review. If you think there is no problem, I will start recruiting right away. However, the current French occupation army does not allow us to leave at will, so this may require you to think of a way. " Fang Lang nodded in satisfaction, and said to the assistant who had been doing nothing beside him: "After returning to the hotel, take a special pass and send it to Mr. Polman. From now on, you are responsible for cooperating with Mr. Polman. Wait to prepare some food for Mr. Polman''s house, which may be what Mr. Polman urgently needs. Understand? " The assistant quickly got up and responded: "Yes, boss!" Pointing to the assistant again, he said to Polman: "This is my assistant, from now on, he is your assistant, you can directly order him to do anything. I hope you can get to work as soon as possible and put up the shelves of my aircraft manufacturing company, understand? " Pollman stood up directly and said seriously: "Yes, boss!" Seeing Polman''s actions, Fang Lang was very satisfied, and said to Zhuang Xintian: "Arrange two soldiers to protect the safety of Mr. Polman in Germany. Germany is not safe now." "Yes, boss!" Zhuang Xintian quickly responded. After speaking, he glanced at the Polman family in the room again, hesitating a bit. Fang Lang understood that the matter of the house outside should be finished. Waved his hand and said indifferently: "It''s okay, everyone is on their own, what''s the situation, just say it directly." "Yes, boss, our men broke in through the back door and caught two peeping people. And ammunition weapons were found in the basement. Now the person is being held in a house, and the interrogation has not yet begun. " Zhuang Xintian explained to Fang Lang what happened. After Fang Lang finished listening, he got up and stood by the window, pointed to the house, looked at Polman and asked: "Porman, do you know who the owner of the house over there is?" Pollman also got up and came to the window, glanced in the direction of Fang Lang''s finger, and said to Fang Lang: "Oh! That''s Leo''s house, but no one has lived in their house for a long time? His parents passed away very early. He seems to be working in Berlin. is he back Shouldn''t it? We''ve been at home these days, haven''t you seen anyone in their house? " After finishing speaking, he turned around and communicated with his wife in German for a while. Soon his wife also shook her head blankly. When it was his eldest son who answered the call, he murmured a few words. Pollman confirmed again before saying to Fang Lang: "Boss, my wife didn''t notice anyone from their family came back. However, my older son said that last night he seemed to see a light in their house. We cant confirm whether its Leos family thats back. " "Then do you know what this Leo does in Berlin?" Fang Lang''s question brought Polman into memory. Waited for a while before talking to his wife for a while. "Boss, because I left home earlier, I remember when I left home to work, he was still studying at the police school. I don''t know exactly where he worked later. But just now my wife said that she heard other neighbors say that he may work in the secret police force. " The secret police force took Fang Lang by surprise, because the secret national police of **Germany has a well-known name called the Gestapo. is the largest spy organization in Germany, and it is an effective tool for the Communist Party to control Germany and the occupied countries. This organization has established more than 50 concentration camps in Germany. It is the executioner of the Communist Party and has caused countless murders in Germany and the German occupying countries. It was banned after Germany''s defeat, and was later judged as a criminal organization by the International Military Tribunal. Fang Lang was taken aback by this news. Unexpectedly, when he came to Polman''s house, he unexpectedly encountered the legendary Gestapo. However, I didn''t offend the other party either! Is this really a coincidence? Did the other party really just go home? But why do you have to be sneaky when you go home, and dont even let the neighbors know? This made Fang Lang feel a little abnormal. If it is said that the other party is coming for him, he will not believe it. Since he couldn''t think of the answer, Fang Lang didn''t think about it anymore, and said directly: "Come on, Nitta, let''s go and see what this so-called Gestapo wants to do." After speaking, he strode out. Turning his head and seeing that Polman was also following, he stopped and said: "Porman, don''t go there yet, let''s go and confirm what''s going on, if it''s just a misunderstanding, forget it. However, if the other party has any bad intentions, which may bring danger to you, it is better for you not to show up. " "Don''t you need me to help you confirm the identity of the other party?" Porman asked indifferently. Fang Lang smiled and patted Polman on the shoulder and said: "No, you''d better think about the list of people you want to recruit at home!" After listening to Fang Lang''s words, Polman didn''t insist, nodded and said: "Alright then! Come and call me if you need to." Fang Lang nodded and didn''t say much. After going out, under the protection of the guards, Fang Lang and others came to the Gestapo''s hometown. Entering the room, I saw two men lying on the ground, who seemed to be picked out by a pole and sold as piglets. Looked carefully at the two of them, especially the calluses on their fingers fully demonstrated that both of them are veterans with guns. "Can you two tell me what I want to monitor me?" One of the hook-nosed men put his face on the ground, and said indignantly in an awkward posture: "We''re not spying on you, this is our own home, we''re just watching who has guests. You have no right to treat us like this, this is trespassing. I want to call the police. " Hearing what he said, Fang Lang squatted beside him, looked him up and down a few times, then smiled and said: "So you are Leo?" As he spoke, he turned to Zhuang Xintian beside him and said: "Look in the room for a photo of the owner to confirm his identity." The two soldiers quickly led the order to leave, and rummaged through each room. "Call the police? Aren''t you the police yourself? Why do you still call the police?" Fang Lang turned his head and looked at the hooked-nosed man on the ground again. Hearing Fang Lang''s words, the man with the hooked nose changed his face. Understanding that the man in front of him already knew his identity. "We have been disbanded, and I am now an ordinary citizen. You have broken into my home without my permission. Of course I have the right to call the police." "Oh! Really? So how are you going to explain to the police the munitions hidden in your room?" Fang Lang looked at the stubborn man in front of him, and said playfully. "Sir, I found some photos in this house." A soldier handed over several photo frames. Fang Lang took it casually, and compared it to the man with the hooked nose. Found that it was indeed possible to match up with a young man in a few photos. But the expressions of the two people on the ground changed when they heard the warrior Fang Lang address them. They exchanged glances very covertly. Fang Lang has been paying attention to the two of them from the corner of his eye, so of course their actions could not be hidden from Fang Lang''s eyes. But he pretended not to know: "Then I don''t know what to call this gentleman?" The other person is obviously much older than Leo, and Fang Lang can clearly see that this person has a cold temperament. Obviously this is a ruthless character, and there must be a lot of lives on hand. Fang Lang felt that this person should be Leo''s superior. But since the Gestapo has been disbanded, why do they get together and act together? (end of this chapter) Chapter 172: snoopers secret Chapter 172 The Secret of the Snooper The other man lying on the ground has some mottled hair, but he took care of it very carefully. Even if he is lying on the ground in an awkward posture, it can be seen that he is a person who pays great attention to appearance. Hearing Fang Lang''s question, the man said in a calm tone: "My name is Paul. The war caused me to lose my family, so I''m temporarily staying at Leo''s house." "Well! Very reasonable! I''m not a policeman, and I don''t want to get to the bottom of your origins. But you shouldn''t be spying on me. So can we all be honest? " Fang Lang thought it was fake when he heard the name, but Fang Lang didn''t care, Fang Lang just wanted to know if their target would be himself. Paul on the ground froze when he heard Fang Lang''s words, he never understood. These people are not going anywhere, why come straight to them. Moreover, these guards are obviously well-trained, and they are all professional fighters. Judging from the soldier''s address to the young man in front of him, this person should be an officer. However, judging from the confused skin color of these people, it is impossible to tell which country they are from. It should not be the French Foreign Legion, because it is impossible for the Foreign Legion to let a yellow man be an officer. "Sir, I assure you that we really didn''t mean to spy on you at all. We are also victims of war, so seeing your convoy approaching is a little scary. That''s why we hid in the dark and observed, wanting to make sure we were safe. " If it is an ordinary person, they will not be able to find the abnormality here. Even if they hadn''t pointed their guns at Fang Lang, Fang Lang might not have noticed that there was something abnormal here. After all, it is normal to be surrounded by people. Fang Lang couldn''t prevent others from spying on him. But it''s not normal to be surrounded by people with sniper rifles. The sense of danger of being aimed at by a gun is why Fang Lang pays attention to them. But asking like this obviously can''t ask anything. Moreover, the two hid their guns immediately after discovering that someone was looking forward, and they were not caught by them at the scene where they aimed their guns. Fang Lang can''t say that I feel that you are aiming at me with guns! So, for a while, Fang Lang really couldn''t do anything to the two of them. "Okay! I believe you." After speaking, he looked at Leo and said: "Mind if I take a tour of your house?" The two people on the ground looked at each other, and Leo said in a helpless tone: "Did I say no?" Fang Lang smiled and said: "Of course not." "Then you still ask me." Leo''s face was full of anger. But Fang Lang smiled, and said indifferently: I am a polite person. "What if I say no?" "This is not the way of hospitality, we can''t be so rude." Such bandit logic made the two lying on the ground roll their eyes for a while. Leo also chose to keep silent, not saying anything more. Fang Lang smiled and said: "Help our two gentlemen untie their shackles!" Soon, two soldiers stepped forward and cut the ropes on their bodies with knives. Lift the two of them up, push them to the wall and stand up. The two of them had already been thoroughly searched. Looking at the four or five soldiers pointing at them with submachine guns, the two stood obediently against the wall, not daring to make any unnecessary movements. Fang Lang paid attention to the expressions of the two, walked back and forth in the living room, and glanced at the opened basement cover. Looking at Leo said: "Mind if I take a tour of your basement?" Leo shrugged indifferently and said: "Didn''t your people go in and search? If you want to see it, I can''t stop you!" Seeing Leo''s tone, Fang Lang smiled and didn''t mind. But he didn''t go down to the basement. Instead, continue to visit on the first floor. Every time I go to a place, I will ask very politely if I can visit. Leo showed an indifferent attitude throughout the whole process. Paul next to him had a lowered brow and a pleasing expression, without expressing any opinions. Fang Lang visited several rooms upstairs and downstairs, and found nothing unusual. The attitude of both of them is indifferent. This made Fang Lang a little strange. Could it be that his judgment was wrong? Are these two people really just simple returning veterans? Since nothing was discovered, Fang Lang couldn''t really do anything to the two of them. Can only prepare to leave resentfully. Thinking of chatting with the two of them for so long, I felt a little thirsty, so I looked at the teacup on the table. But there is no water bottle in the sidewalk: "Mr. Leo, is there drinking water at home? Do you mind buying me a cup of coffee?" After speaking, he walked to the kitchen. Just as Fang Lang turned to go to the kitchen, he noticed that Leo made a move, but was quickly pulled back by Paul beside him. And, very covertly shook his head at Leo. Obviously, this Paul is a real master. He understands that what Fang Lang did just now is to confirm the secret of the two by testing their reactions. When Leo was about to make an action because he was worried about exposing his secret, he immediately held him down. It''s a pity that none of this was hidden from Fang Lang''s eyes. Fang Lang smiled, and stopped playing, but said directly: "What? Is there a secret in the kitchen? Mind sharing it with me?" Leo''s face was livid, his eyes were about to start breathing fire, and he quickly turned his head to the side, not wanting to communicate with Fang Lang. Really is a young man, too unstable, and not very polite. Fang Lang said silently in his heart. On the other hand, Paul was obviously much more sophisticated, and smiled at Fang Lang without expressing his opinion. Seeing that the two of them were silent, Fang Lang didn''t care, and walked directly into the kitchen. The small kitchen obviously has no place to hide things. Fang Lang searched in every cabinet, but found nothing unusual. Just when they were wondering if they had some hidden compartment in the kitchen, their eyes inadvertently glanced at a place where firewood was piled up. There were some papers that seemed to be used as igniting materials. Fang Lang bent down to pick it up, and found that it was two maps, and there were a few not-so-obvious marks on the maps. I thought to myself, are these two Gestapo still members of the resistance organization, planning to attack the occupying army? "Is the secret of the two of you these two maps? Are you rebels?" When Fang Lang spread the two maps on the table for viewing, the expressions of both of them changed. It was obvious that their hidden secret was discovered, and they felt a little flustered. Hearing Fang Lang''s question, Paul''s face remained unchanged, with a nervous expression that Fang Lang had discovered the secret. If it wasn''t for the flash of a disdainful smile at the corner of Leo''s mouth, Fang Lang would have almost believed them. This can be regarded as a realistic version of not being afraid of opponents like gods, but teammates like pigs! After carefully opening and comparing the two maps, Fang Lang casually put the two maps away, rubbed them, and threw them back in place. smiled at the two of them: "Okay! I believe the target of the two of you is not me. As for whether you are the rebels or not, it has nothing to do with me. I''m just a businessman, I hope you don''t blindly target me. Otherwise, dont blame me for being rude. " After speaking, he patted the non-existent dust on his hands and body, and walked out of the kitchen. When he came to the two of them, he did not forget to pat them on the shoulders. Then he waved directly at Zhuang Xintian and the others and walked out. After returning to the car, Fang Lang glanced back, and said to Zhuang Xintian in the passenger seat: "Arrange a group of people later, monitor the two from a distance, and don''t disturb them. Go back to the hotel and find two maps to see what these two guys are trying to do. Also, take the Polman family to the hotel and don''t let these two **** attack them. " Zhuang Xintian said with a serious face: "Yes, boss!" After finishing speaking, he got off the car and went to inform Pollman to move. Fang Lang sat in the car, looking at Leo''s house from a distance, There are two soldiers standing at the door with guns on guard. Obviously worried that the two would attack the convoy that Fang Lang left. Fang Lang, who already had a general direction for the two of them in his heart, smiled, and didn''t say much. Soon, Zhuang Xintian and several soldiers helped the Bollman family get their things out, and got into a small car in front of them. Pollman didn''t say much, but nodded towards Fang Lang from a distance. Instead, his wife and two children seemed a little excited. Zhuang Xintian returned to the car and said to Fang Lang: "Boss, do you want to clean up those two Gestapo?" Fang Lang looked at Zhuang Xintian and smiled and said: "Why would you want to clean them up?" "Didn''t you say they were the rebels?" Zhuang Xintian asked with a puzzled expression. Looking at Zhuang Xintian''s appearance, Fang Lang shook his head helplessly and said with a smile: "Did they admit it?" Obviously, Zhuang Xintian is a straight-forward soldier thinking, since they have problems, just kill them directly. There are so many twists and turns. "Whether they admit it or not! We think so, they are." "Don''t be so serious about killing! Even if they are rebels, they are not rebels against us, so what does it have to do with us?" Fang Lang smiled unhurriedly. "But we found them, I am a little worried, they will become an unstable factor for your safety later. Just get rid of them, lest you have to defend them later. " Zhuang Xintian''s focus has always been Fang Lang''s safety. If it was normal, Fang Lang would certainly not leave these two Gestapo behind. But Fang Lang found some interesting things on those two maps, so he decided to observe whether his judgment was accurate. Patted Zhuang Xintian on the shoulder, smiled and said: "Didn''t you ask you to arrange someone to monitor them? If they really have any bad intentions against us, we can definitely find out in advance, can''t we?" Knowing that Fang Lang had his own ideas, Zhuang Xintian couldn''t say anything more, so he could only nod silently. "Sir, they''re gone. Will he find us?" When Fang Lang and the others all evacuated from the block, Leo and Paul breathed a sigh of relief. Leo saw Paul pick up the two maps from the kitchen and put them on the table again, he asked with lingering fear. Not sure yet, but that young Asian guy is a really good guy. We have to be careful these two days. Is there a safer, more secluded hiding place around here? " Paul looked at the map on the table while recalling Fang Lang''s performance just now, hoping to confirm whether the two of them had been exposed today. "Are you worried that they will inform the French?" Leo obviously doesn''t want to change places, after all, this is his home and the place he is most familiar with. Although he hasn''t been back for many years, this place can give him a sense of security. (end of this chapter) Chapter 173: mayor jonas Chapter 173 Mayor Jonas Paul glanced at Leo with cold eyes without any trace, and Leo felt himself trembling. Recalling the cruelty of his chief, he straightened his face, not daring to talk nonsense. After thinking about it, he said: "I remember a hidden hunter''s cabin in the suburban forest, but that was my memory when I was in junior high school. I don''t know if it''s still there now." "Let''s go tonight and have a look, and if it suits us, we will go somewhere. We can''t stay in this place." Paul directly decided to abandon this location without hesitation. He must not dare to bet on whether Fang Lang and the others will report their situation to the French occupying forces. It''s not because he''s timid, but because he has more important things to do. In his heart, he really wanted to investigate the identities of Fang Lang and others. Look for opportunities to get revenge on them. However, the premise is to ensure that you complete the most important things first. Leo didn''t dare to say anything when he heard Paul''s order, and quickly nodded to accept the order. That night, the two left Leo''s hometown by moonlight and walked into the forest. What they didn''t notice was that there were two figures flickering behind them far behind them. Fang Lang, who had just returned to the hotel, received a report from his adjutant Qi Qingshan. Already booked a seat in the restaurant of the hotel, and made an appointment with Mr. Mayor of Stuttgart. The mayor of Stuttgart, Mr. Jonas, is a handsome old man with white hair, he doesn''t talk much, and he cleans up very neatly. It is understood that he is a politician born in an old-fashioned Junker aristocratic family. Because he did not agree with Mao Zedong''s political ideas, he was treated as a political prisoner and spent more than three years in a concentration camp. After the Germans were rescued by the Allies after the defeat, they were elected as the mayor of Stuart. It may be that he was used to seeing too much life and death in the concentration camp, and suffered too much torture, so his body looks very thin. Fang Lang looked at Mr. Mayor who was sitting across from him, and for a moment he didn''t know how to speak. In the past, Fang Lang used to use money offensives to break through the enemy''s defense line and make the enemy a friend. However, looking at the meticulous old man sitting opposite him and tidying himself up, Fang Lang felt that his money offensive might not have much effect. This is Fang Lang''s intuition. Just when Fang Lang was still hesitating, how should he speak to persuade the old gentleman opposite him to help him. Mr. Jonas, who seemed to speak very little, spoke first. "Mr. Fang, may I know how you will arrange for my compatriots?" When he asked this sentence, Mr. Jonas''s eyes flashed with vigilance. It made Fang Lang feel like a villain who wanted to abduct and sell the other party''s child. Shaking his head, Fang Lang said calmly: "Mr. Mayor Jonas, don''t get me wrong, although I am a Brazilian soldier, I am here this time as a businessman. I don''t know if you know Brazil, we are an agricultural country with a very weak industrial base. In my impression, our relationship with Germany was very close before the war started. There are also many Germans living in Brazil. I came here this time because I saw the shortcomings of our Brazil and wanted to make up for them. Perhaps it seems to you that we are taking advantage of the fire. But please believe me, I am not a robber who came to plunder wealth, but a businessman who came to seek cooperation. " Mr. Jonas in front of him has been listening to Fang Lang''s words quietly, without any change in the expression on his face. During such a long speech, Fang Lang stopped several times to listen to Mr. Jonas'' feedback on himself. It''s a pity that the other party has not made a sound. Fang Lang had no way of judging what the other party was thinking. After a long time, Mr. Jonas said: I have been to Brazil, the people there are very friendly, and I like the barbecue there. Hearing this, Fang Lang breathed a sigh of relief. It seems that this Mr. Jonas is not really a boring gourd. Maybe it''s just the sequelae after being imprisoned in a concentration camp. "Haha. You are right. If you like, I can invite you to go to Brazil this time and try our barbecue again." In order to reassure the old man, Fang Lang doesn''t mind letting the old man go to see everyone''s working environment together. However, it is estimated that the other party will not pass by. But this is an attitude that reassures the other party. In fact, Fang Lang can completely ignore the old man''s thoughts, and use the identity of Colonel Chatham of the French occupation army to call up the personnel files of various companies. Pick and pack the people you need according to the list. I believe that the Germans dare not resist. But considering that sometimes twisted melons are not sweet. Besides, although some people in some factories are in this important position, it does not mean that this job is really done by him. Of course, Fang Lang can also directly recruit employees for various positions he needs in Stuttgart through recruitment, and rebuild a company''s shelf after returning to Brazil. This method is the most simple and direct. However, this method cannot quickly achieve the effect Fang Lang wants. The ideal state in Fang Lang''s mind is to let these factories in Germany take the initiative to bring their own full set of technology in the form of a joint venture. Go to Brazil to open a new factory. Of course, this idea came to me after meeting the old Mr. Jonas in front of me. At first, Fang Lang''s meaning was very simple. He wanted to recruit some employees from the automobile industry to work in his Aston Martin factory in Brazil. But after walking around Stuttgart, especially when he saw the factories of Mercedes-Benz and Porsche. and an unremarkable factory called Bosch, Fang Lang began to have new ideas in his heart. Its not necessary to go to Brazil together, Im too old to travel far. And my fellow man needs me. I remember what Colonel Chatham meant, asking me to cooperate with you in recruiting qualified skilled workers? Why do you tell me now that you want to seek cooperation? " Hearing that Jonas took the initiative to ask about cooperation, Fang Lang was overjoyed, and said calmly on his face: "Mr. Jonas, due to the war, the factories in Stuttgart are basically shut down now. And, how long this state will last, everyone doesnt know now, right? I asked you to come here because I have a new idea and I want to communicate with you to see if it is feasible. " "New ideas? Please tell me, Mr. Fang." Jonas knew that what Fang Lang said was true, and this was what he was most anxious about now as a German. The young man in front of him actually said that he had an idea to reverse the situation in front of him, which made him look forward to it. If I remember correctly, after World War I, Germany moved a lot of businesses to other surrounding countries because of restrictions. Also, a lot of technical research has been done in these countries. It is only now that Germany has such a strong industrial strength, right? " Without Fang Lang finishing his sentence, Mr. Jonas already understood what Fang Lang meant. Isn''t this just trying to copy the experience after World War I? They have had this idea for a long time, but unfortunately the allies have already been fooled once, how could they allow this kind of thing to be repeated again? Jonas shook his head and said: "Thank you for your frankness, Mr. Fang, let me tell you the truth! We have tried this idea once, but unfortunately it didn''t work. The current allies have very strict restrictions on us, and many of our companies have been on their monitoring list. It is impossible to allow us to do it again. And, I''m tired of wars, and I don''t want my country to be at war again. So, sorry, Mr. Fang. " I didn''t expect Jonas to be an anti-war faction, and I don''t know if it''s true or not. Fang Lang looked Jonas up and down seriously, and seeing his expression, Fang Lang believed his words. But he still smiled and said: "Mr. Mayor Jonas, I think you have misunderstood. What I want to save is not your country''s military industry. Although I am a soldier, I also hate war. I have told you before that what I want is to build a complete industrial system for Brazil. In the UK, I bought a closed car manufacturing factory. After I came into contact with car manufacturing, I realized that it is not enough to build a car factory to make a car. A complete industrial system can provide complete supporting parts for my automobile factory. I can choose to introduce a complete industrial system directly from the UK, but the investment required is too huge. That''s why I came to Germany, I think we need each other now, don''t we? " At this time, Jonas had already grasped Fang Lang''s train of thought. However, this is the same as their ideas, but unfortunately the Allies will not allow it. "Mr. Fang, I understand what you mean. Personally, I agree with your idea very much. And also very willing to work hard to realize your ideas. However, you need to understand that the biggest problem now is not with us, but with the Confederate government. Our behavior will not be allowed. " I didn''t expect that the old man Jonas''s head would be so rigid, and he didn''t know how to change it at all. Fang Lang can only speak clearly. "Why do we need the consent of the Allied governments? Now I am coming to Stuttgart to recruit skilled workers from my factory! This is a normal business practice, and we Brazil is also a member of the Allied Powers! I have obtained authorization from Colonel Chatham of the French Occupation Army to allow me to recruit my staff in Germany. As for how these employees came here, or how I want to use them after returning to Brazil, isnt it something I can decide? " The old man blinked his eyes, and it took him a long time to recover. Slowly a smile appeared on his face. "Fang, I understand what you mean. Can you tell me what you want? " "Of course technology! I hope that the companies you want to reborn in Brazil can share all the technology with me. And you have to build a complete industrial system for me in Brazil. The minimum requirement is that all auto parts be localized in Brazil. " Fang Lang''s words made old man Jonas'' face a little ugly. Isn''t this the lion''s big mouth? If so, why should I cheapen you? If we cooperate in this way, many countries are willing to jump out and cooperate with us. "Fang, isn''t your request too much. The contribution of the two parties is not proportional at all, and I have no way to convince entrepreneurs of this kind of cooperation. " Seeing Jonas'' dissatisfied expression, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Mr. Jonas, you need to understand the current situation in Germany. Don''t you think I can''t get these technologies if I don''t cooperate with you? " (end of this chapter) Chapter 174: Polmans Notebook Chapter 174 Polman''s Notebook Jonas looked at the young man with a calm face opposite him, and his heart tightened when he heard the other party''s obviously threatening words. He knew what the other party said was right. If he wanted to and was willing to pay, the French would definitely be willing to help him pack up and relocate the entire factory. "Since this is the case, why do you still cooperate with us?" "Because if we cooperate, you will be willing to take the initiative to come up with the latest technology, right? This also makes it easier for us to digest and absorb these technologies more quickly. " Fang Lang''s frankness was beyond Jonas'' expectations. His confidence made Jonas feel a little uncomfortable. "What if we disagree?" "Two possibilities, one is that I bought your factory directly from the French at a low price, and your factory has basically been confiscated, isn''t it? I dont think the price will be that high, at most it will take longer for me to digest and absorb. Oh! It seems that it doesn''t take a long time to digest, because I can directly recruit qualified skilled workers in Germany, isn''t it? Secondly, I can directly import a complete technological industrial system from the UK or the US, but at most I need to invest more money. However, if this is the case, it has nothing to do with you. " Jonas knew that he belonged to the weak side, and he had no confidence to become tough. "If you follow your plan for a joint venture, how many shares can our company get?" "You provide technology and personnel, and I am responsible for funding. You can only account for 20% of the shares. You can keep your own brand. If you agree, we will sign the contract. If we disagree, we will find someone else. " Fang Lang''s toughness made Jonas very powerless, but he also knew in his heart that he had no right to say no. "Mr. Fang, I will inform our entrepreneurs of your ideas. I cannot promise specific results. But I really appreciate your kindness. " "Mr. Mayor Jonas, I only give you three days. If there is no reply after three days, I will start a recruitment conference in the hotel and directly recruit skilled workers. You dont have to come to me anymore. " After speaking, Fang Lang got up directly and wiped the oil stains from the corners of his mouth with a square towel on the table, got up and threw it on the dinner plate, turned and left. Jonas looked at Fang Lang''s back, and remained silent for a long time. Now he can''t see through the young man in front of him, and sometimes thinks that the other party is a polite gentleman. Sometimes he feels like a rotten good person, but when you want to make more progress because of his kindness, he will immediately turn into a domineering and vicious person. However, he has to admit that at this moment, it is very rare to have such a breakthrough to save the enterprise. Because these countries that control Germany now look down on these not-so-advanced civilian technologies, but countries that can see these technologies have no ability to come in and decide where these technologies go. This makes it very difficult for these basic industrial enterprises now. The factories are shut down, the workers are unemployed, and the factories have no funds and no hope. Maybe Fang Lang is their only life-saving straw. After thinking about this, Mayor Jonas also left the hotel. The three days are very tight. After all, there are hundreds of supporting factories for the automobile industry alone. If Fang Lang can''t give a clear answer within three days, Fang Lang will definitely start to change his mind. Fang Lang, who returned to the room, received a notification from Zhuang Xintian immediately, Leo and Paul hid in the hunter''s hut in the mountains overnight with unknown purpose. Hearing the news, Fang Lang smiled and said to Zhuang Xintian: "Send a few more people over there, keep an eye on them from a distance, and don''t let them get unhooked. You have to make it clear to the soldiers that these two guys have other accomplices, so be careful. Also, don''t care what they do, just make sure they''re in our sights at all times. Understand? " "Yes, boss! How do you know they have other gangs?" "Hey. Guess." Seeing Fang Lang''s expression, Zhuang Xintian was a little helpless. You are also a naval colonel now. Is it really okay to be so naughty? Zhuang Xintian also understood that Fang Lang must have already had an idea in his heart. However, the current Fang Lang is no longer his original friend. I can''t get to the bottom of it ignorantly. Smiling and shaking his head, he went to carry out the order. Finally sent Zhuang Xintian away, Fang Lang was about to take a bath and rest, when he heard someone knocking on the door again. All I could say was, "Please speak!" Looking up, it was Mr. Polman who was let in by the guard at the door. Pollman, holding a black notebook in his hand, did not forget to nod to the guard at the door as he entered. "Boss, all the aviation talents I can think of who are still in Germany are here, please take a look." Although Fang Lang is not familiar with the German aviation talents of this period. But it is obviously inappropriate for the subordinates to not even look at the materials prepared so hard. So, Fang Lang pointed to the sofa in the hotel room and motioned for him to sit down. And took the notebook in the opponent''s hand, smiled and said: "Are the family members still used to it?" Pollman quickly nodded politely and said: "Thank you boss for your concern, this is the first full meal they have had in a while. They were all very happy and thanked the boss for taking care of them! " Smiling, Fang Lang picked up the cigar in front of the sofa and threw one to Polman, and then lit another one for himself. Seeing Fang Lang so casual, Polman also slowly relaxed, put the cigar under his nose and smelled it. "Since you are working for me, of course I want to make sure that you and your family are well-fed." As he spoke, he opened the notebook in Polman''s hand, and saw that Polman made a detailed classification very thoughtfully. Put at the front are professional aircraft designers. The names of the Horton brothers are suddenly listed. "Are these two the designers of Go229 you mentioned? Haven''t they been poached by the US and the Soviet Union?" "Boss, don''t worry, because Go229 has not really been mass-produced, and most of the materials have been destroyed. Therefore, the Horton Brothers did not attract the attention of the United States and the Soviet Union. They are still in Germany now. " This is really a big surprise! Fang Lang knew that he would definitely gain something from his visit to Germany this time, but he didn''t expect to have the opportunity to receive the designer of the ancestor of the B2 bomber. "Are you sure you can convince them to go to Brazil?" Fang Lang is very excited now, but he is a little worried that others look down on rural places like Brazil. "Boss, don''t worry, I will do my best to persuade them to go with you. After all, it is a great pity for them that their aircraft was not mass-produced. As long as the boss is willing to support them to continue their research, I believe they will definitely join our company without hesitation. " "Good, good, very good! Polman, you can tell them that I will fully support their research work. What is the origin of this Kurt Tanker! You also wrote him in front of the Horton Brothers. " Fang Lang pointed to a name on the notebook and asked Polman: "Boss, do you know the FW190 Mozu fighter?" Now it''s time to ask Fang Lang. Fang Lang''s knowledge of aircraft is really very limited, and he only knows about BF109 and Stuka bombers. So I could only shake my head helplessly, and said in a slightly embarrassed way: "I was born in the army, and now I am in the navy, but I have never participated in the air force. So, I really lack a certain understanding of the air force''s equipment. Tell me about it in detail! " Seeing that Fang Lang hadn''t even heard of FW190, Polman was a little disappointed. But since the boss asked, he also asked Fang Lang about science without any concealment. "The FW190 Moraz fighter is a single-seat, single-engine, straight, single-wing all-metal piston fighter. It is a new model developed by the Luftwaffe in order to deal with the gradually falling behind BF109. This type of aircraft has produced more than 20,000 units. As a multi-purpose fighter, it has excellent performance and excellent high-speed maneuverability so that it will not lose the wind in the battle with the Spitfire IX. Even comparable to the later Spitfire XVI, with good vision, it can often use the broken S to maneuver to the blind spot of the enemy''s vision and then pull the lever to give the enemy a fatal attack. At the beginning of FW190''s service, the British Air Force lost more than a hundred of the latest Spitfire fighters within a month, which caused a huge psychological shadow on the British pilots, so he was awarded the "Butcher Bird" on the battlefield. title. " Fang Lang had never heard of the Mozu, but Fang Lang, the British Spitfire, knew! The fact that the British Spitfire is not tempered, it means that this FW190 is undoubtedly a very advanced fighter. "You mean, this Kurt Tank is the designer of FW190?" "That''s right, before the end of the war, Dr. Tan Ke was ordered to study the improved model of Messerschmitt''s Me-262 jet fighter. It was finally approved by the Air Force Supreme Command in February 1945 and named TA183 after Dr. Tan Ke. Unfortunately, it was not mass-produced because of the end of the war. " What Fang Lang didn''t know was that the TA183 fighter jet has made a huge contribution to aviation development. Over the years, the solutions it provided have been applied in thousands of aircraft in other countries. Most generation fighters have the same typical characteristics as it: nose air intake, fuselage is the combination of air intake and engine, large swept wings. It can be said that TA183 is the originator of a generation of jet fighters. However, Fang Lang knew that the aircraft that could be selected by the German Air Force Supreme Command were definitely not ordinary people. So he immediately made up his mind that this person must find a way to get it. "Is he still in Germany?" "Yes, he was interrogated by the British after the war, and he was just released a few days ago. As far as I know, he is now trying to find a way to escape from Germany, and his destination seems to be Argentina." "Then what are you waiting for, send an invitation to him immediately." If he didn''t know, Fang Lang didn''t care, but now that he knows that there is such an excellent aircraft designer, how can he let him slip away? Historical Kurt Tank moved to Argentina after the war to continue the research and development of Ta183, and designed the Arrow I and Arrow II fighters of Argentina. Frustrated by Argentina''s weak industrial foundation and unstable political environment, the orthodox sequel of Germany''s ultimate jet fighter Ta183 died in South America, and was called "a lost dream" by Argentines. (end of this chapter) Chapter 175: Money is tight Chapter 175 Money is tight Seeing Fang Lang looking forward to it so much, Polman was also very happy. After all, the person he recommended was approved by the boss. "Boss, don''t worry, I will contact Dr. Tan Ke tomorrow morning." "Not tomorrow, do you have their number?" Seeing Polman nodding, Fang Lang said without hesitation: "There is a phone in the guest room, you call him now." "But boss, shouldn''t we start by modifying airliners? Will there be a lot of pressure to recruit so many designers now?" Polman knew Fang Lang''s future plans for this aviation company, so he was a little worried that if too many designers were recruited for research, it would cause huge financial pressure on the company. "Don''t worry, I can first set up a research laboratory with funds to accommodate these researchers. We cannot allow these outstanding researchers to be lost. " Seeing Fang Lang''s attitude so resolute, Polman could only nod in agreement. Picked up the phone in the room and dialed out. Because Polman spoke German, Fang Lang couldn''t understand what the two were talking about. At this time, Fang Lang felt very regretful. He knew that one day he would need to go to Germany to recruit people, so he should learn German first. However, from Polman''s expression and tone, Fang Lang can also tell that the two are indeed very familiar. Finally, Polman finished talking on the phone, and said to the expectant Fang Lang: "Boss, Dr. Tan Ke said that he wants to think about it again, because people from the Argentine government are also in contact with him." Fang Lang didn''t expect that the Argentine government had come forward to poach people from Germany. This was more active than the Brazilian government! But the Brazilian government cannot be blamed for this. After all, Brazil has just experienced a military coup, and the domestic situation has not been straightened out, nor has it experienced foreign poaching. Fang Lang thought for a while and said to Polman: "Where is Dr. Tan Ke, if necessary, I can meet him in person." "He is in the British occupation area in Bremen, which is a little more free than ours. However, the boss does not need to invite him personally. I know Dr. Tan Ke very well. If the boss can promise Dr. Tan Ke one thing, I am 80% sure that I can persuade Dr. Tan Ke to join your company! " Polman obviously knew Dr. Tan Ke very well, and after feeling Fang Lang''s thoughts, he directly put forward his own opinions. "Oh! Promise one thing, let''s talk about it?" "Dr. Tan Ke is a very thoughtful and talented designer, but he also has a very bad shortcoming, that is, he hates people to dictate his work. During the period of working in Falk Wolf Company, because of disagreement with the former head of the research and development department of Falk Wolf Company, it was very unpleasant. Later, a "coup d''tat" was simply launched, and he took charge of the design power of Fokker Wolf Company alone. Therefore, if we want to recruit Dr. Tan Ke, we only need to promise him and grant him absolute autonomy of the project. We only need to put forward clear requirements for the projects we need, and I believe that Dr. Tan Ke''s ability will be able to complete them well. " After listening to Polman''s words, Fang Lang frowned a little. It seems that this Dr. Tan Ke is a bit rebellious! But Fang Lang also knows that capable people are often rebellious. Besides, what the other party wants is to design according to their own ideas, and the one who wants to be the master is only the design department, not the boss of the company. What is there to worry about? After pondering for a while, Fang Lang said: "I can set up a design studio for Dr. Tan Ke alone. He is the person in charge of the design studio. I can give him all the personnel management authority. However, the financial power must be in my hands. All results obtained must belong to the company. " "Boss, don''t worry! If the management of personnel is completely handed over to Dr. Tan Ke, then I don''t need to recruit additional personnel for this design office. Maybe Dr. Tan Ke can join this design studio with the entire design department of Falk Wolf Company. " To be honest, Fang Lang doesn''t like that all the staff in the entire laboratory are one person''s cronies. The risk of such management is huge, one bad move will cause the entire design office to quit, leaving only an empty shell. After thinking about it for a long time, Fang Lang chose to give Dr. Tan Ke full freedom, but he had to sign a contract with the other party with a huge liquidated damages. Even if in the end, Dr. Tan Ke is a white-eyed wolf, he will recover all the investment costs through liquidated damages and get some compensation. However, Fang Lang also knew that Dr. Tan Ke''s biggest risk of breach of contract was to return to Germany for research, but Germany''s aircraft research association has always been restricted by law. At least in his lifetime, it is impossible to have a chance to lift the ban. As for whether he will be poached by the United States, Fang Lang has no way of guaranteeing it, because the domineering Yankee is unreasonable. But if you are poached, you must pay liquidated damages. "Okay, then you have a good chat with him, as long as he thinks capable people, he can be responsible for recruiting himself." Now that he has decided to delegate power, Fang Lang is no longer entangled. Instead, he continued to look at Polman''s notebook. After turning two pages, he saw a list of researchers who actually had engines. "Do you still know the engine researcher?" Hearing Fang Lang''s question, Polman also said a little strangely: "Yes! I am engineering management! I need to participate in the management of all parts procurement and whether the performance indicators are qualified! I need to participate in the tires, bulletproof glass, and key switches needed by trail aircraft, as large as engines and weapons! " Fang Lang really didn''t understand this, so he didn''t expect Polman to be responsible for so many things. "Then your engine researcher, what kind of engine do they study?" "There are researchers with piston engines and jet engines, but those masters are all divided by the United States and the Soviet Union. The remaining ones are all capable and thoughtful research assistants that I know. Please rest assured, the boss, most of the people here are not very famous because of their age and experience. However, professional knowledge and research ability are very solid. " Pollman was obviously a little worried that Fang Lang would think it was too much when he saw his long list. Fang Lang smiled and said: "It doesn''t matter, I am not afraid of crowds, as long as there are real materials, I welcome them! However, I would like to remind you that Brazil''s industrial base is still relatively weak. If we design an excellent product, we may be limited by our manufacturing capacity and cannot achieve the desired effect. Since I appoint you as the head of the aircraft factory, you must take these factors into consideration. Take tires as an example. Brazil is a world-renowned rubber producer, but we dont have tire processing technology. So, I hope that when you introduce personnel, you can also add talents from these basic industries. " Now it''s Polman''s turn to be confused. Isn''t this going to be the introduction of the entire aviation industry system? Can''t help shouting in my heart: "The concubine can''t do it!" Such a huge project is almost an impossible task. Fortunately, Fang Lang seemed to hear his inner voice: "However, you don''t have to worry too much about this. I am now negotiating with the Stuttgart city government to introduce a complete automobile industry system back to Brazil. The manufacture of many parts can be put together with the manufacture of aircraft parts. After this matter is finally confirmed, you can see if there is anything you need to add, and we will find a way to introduce it. " Fang Lang''s words made Polman fall into thinking, and soon thought of a question. "Boss, if we want to manufacture airplanes, there is one item that cannot be used in common with the automobile industry. Whether it is the blades of a propeller aircraft or the blades of a jet engine, very precise machining capabilities are required. Need professional processing machine tools, I think we need to introduce these separately. " Polman''s words were like a bolt of lightning, hitting Fang Lang''s head. I keep blaming myself in my heart, what kind of pig brain is this. The most important basic industrial machine tool industry has been forgotten by him. When I received the artillery factory in Japan, I was still excited to see so many German machine tools. Why did I forget such an important industry when I came to Germany? "Polman, you are so right, thank you for your reminder. How could I have forgotten such an important industry? Do you know if there are any excellent machine tool industry brands in Stuttgart? It is best to be able to introduce me, and I want to have a serious discussion with them about cooperation matters. " I know of two excellent machine tool factories, namely Trumpf and Julang. However, I am not familiar with these enterprises, if you need, I can help you to visit them. " Of course, Fang Lang doesn''t need Polman to deal with this kind of thing. Mayor Jonas is a better candidate. "No need, you are responsible for setting up the shelves of the aircraft factory. I will find other people to handle the affairs of the machine tool factory. " After finishing speaking, Fang Lang directly closed Polman''s notebook and handed it to him. "I have no problem with the personnel, you are solely responsible. If you need any help, come to me." Seeing Fang Lang''s actions, Pollman understood Fang Lang''s thoughts, and this was a complete delegation of power to him. Polman was very moved by this. "Yes, boss. Then I won''t disturb your rest. If you have any needs, you can talk to me at any time." Fang Lang got up and shook hands with Polman to say goodbye. After Polman left, Fang Lang was in a state of excitement. He didn''t expect that this visit to Germany would gain so much. If you can stand on the shoulders of Germany and develop your own aviation industry, you can make a lot of money. If one day, my company can become a giant like Boeing, then I will have a huge influence in the world. But at the same time, he was a little worried about whether his funds could support his crazy expansion plan. Hastily called the accompanying financial assistant to his room. How much liquidity do we have on hand right now? "Boss, I just confirmed with the head office at noon today, because we are expanding rapidly recently, including TV factories, radio and television stations, the acquisition of Richfield Oil Exploration Company, the acquisition of Aston Martin, and the construction of artillery factories." Hearing the financial assistant calculate his own expenses item by item, this made Fang Lang feel very headache. interrupted directly: "Just tell me how much cash flow I can mobilize now." The assistant turned back two pages of the notebook in his hand and said: "According to the current situation that the scale of immigration is stable, the company can transfer 8 million U.S. dollars." (end of this chapter) Chapter 176: Extort money Chapter 176 Blocking the way and extorting money The figure of eight million dollars made Fang Lang jump up by himself. Isn''t this **** bullshit? Although eight million dollars is definitely a very huge amount. But compared to the automobile industry, aircraft factory, and machine tool factory that Fang Lang wants to build. Even a complete industrial system, this amount of money is simply not enough to fit between the teeth. The Universal Group still needs to continue to invest in order to grow rapidly. This is not a thing! "How can there be only so little? Now our tobacco company has opened up sales in Brazil and Europe. In addition, our grain and oil companies purchase low-priced raw materials from Brazil for processing, and then sell them to Europe at high prices through global trade. The profits generated are already very considerable! " "Yes, boss! That''s why we still have eight million dollars. At the same time, you must also see that our expenditure is also very huge now. Among them, the biggest expense is the immigration activities of labor service companies. Now we are in the three eastern cities of Tianjin, Shanghai, and Guangzhou. Every day, ships go out to sea full of immigrants and come to Brazil, although the cost of population is deducted with penicillin. However, the cost of shipping around the world is indeed huge. The most important thing is to resettle immigrants. Now the company is frantically buying land and farms in Rio Grande do Sul. Even the price of the land has been increased by 10% from what we bought. So now the funds we can draw out are really only 8 million US dollars. " Fang Lang understood that what the financial assistant said was true. After pondering for a while, Fang Lang said to the financial assistant: "Okay, I understand. You go down and rest early! I will find you again if necessary." "Okay, boss! Good night then." Looking at the financial assistant who closed the door and went out, Fang Lang felt a little headache. This is the best time for the company to rise, and Fang Lang can''t give up. So, in the end Fang Lang decided to use the gold reserves obtained from Japan and Brazil. Fang Lang knew very well that the value of this batch of gold was as high as nearly 120 million US dollars. This is an astronomical sum, enough for Fang Lang to complete all his investments in Germany and still have a surplus. You must know that the total investment of the United States in the European recovery plan, which is about to start in two years, is only 13 billion U.S. dollars. This is already one percent of the funding for the entire plan. But this was finally found from Sumitomo''s house, and Fang Lang was reluctant to sell it directly. Therefore, a direct telegram was sent to Brazil, asking his father to smelt the gold and mortgage it to the Bank of America. Fang Lang''s father Fang Xinshan also knew that the batch of copper materials brought back to Brazil were actually gold. After receiving Fang Lang''s telegram, Fang Xinshan did not object, and directly followed Fang Lang''s request. The next day, Fang Lang had breakfast at the hotel, and then accompanied by guards went to the Stuttgart City Hall. Visit Mayor Jonas. When I came to the city hall, I saw that the outside of the city hall was full of vehicles, and vehicles were constantly coming from other places. Looking at the people getting on and off these vehicles, they all look well-dressed. Fang Lang understood that Jonas should be busy with what he told him yesterday. Sitting in the car and thinking about it, Fang Lang didn''t get out of the car. Instead, let the team turn around and continue to walk forward to see if they can find a guide and show them the machine tool factory. After walking forward for more than a hundred meters, the convoy suddenly stopped. Fang Lang sat in the car and didn''t know what happened in front of him. Zhuang Xintian got off the car and went to check the situation, and came back after a while. Said to Fang Lang: "Sir, there is a middle-aged man in front who wants to extort money, and I have asked someone to pull him aside to deal with it." After saying this, Fang Lang became interested. What do you mean? Dont die, youre still blind! Dare to provoke such a big team? "A person came up to extort money? What do you mean? A bomb is strapped to him? So powerful?" Zhuang Xintian understood as soon as he heard Fang Lang''s words, Fang Lang must have misunderstood. If someone really showed up here with a bomb, he would have shot him long ago, and he didn''t even bother to collect the corpse. How could there be a chance to extort money. "No, no, there was a middle-aged man deliberately rushed to the front of the car and lay down, unwilling to get up. Said he was going to sell something, and the soldiers thought he was trying to plot something wrong, so they had already tied him up. Ready to take it back for trial. " "Then how do you know that he is not trying to commit crimes but to extort money?" Hearing Fang Lang''s question, Zhuang Xintian smiled and said: "I checked the situation of this guy, he should be an intellectual. As soon as I saw us taking out the gun, I was so scared that I wanted to run away. I have carefully observed his expressions and movements. This guy is definitely not a trained professional. Like a scholar who is dizzy from hunger. No abnormalities were found around ??. " Hearing this, Fang Lang was taken aback. I''m afraid I don''t know what a human bomb attack is! As far as your level is concerned, you can tell with just a glance that someone else is not here to plot evil. Could it be that the person who plots evil is still engraved on his face? "Are you locked up? Be careful if you have a bomb on you." Fang Lang''s words stunned Zhuang Xintian. There was a bomb on his body. The boss suspected that this person was plotting something wrong! "Don''t worry, the boss, we have already searched the body. There is nothing else except a file bag with you. And, how should I say it? Maybe the boss will trust my judgment after seeing this person. " Zhuang Xintian''s words aroused Fang Lang''s interest, what does it mean to believe your judgment after seeing this person. "Then go back! I want to see what kind of person you said is going to extort money!" I originally wanted to find Mr. Mayor Jonas to communicate about the machine tool factory, but Mayor Jonas is not free, so there is nothing wrong with coming out. Encountered the current unexpected situation, Fang Lang really didn''t dare to stay outside for too long, and he would be wronged when he was attacked. So Fang Lang, who was afraid of death, decided to go back to the hotel first and get up. The order was issued, and the convoy quickly returned to the hotel by the same route. Fang Lang, who returned to the room, soon saw what Zhuang Xintian said looked like someone who wanted to extort money. I saw two soldiers walking in, escorting an extremely thin middle-aged man like a chicken. The man didn''t know if his eyesight was not very good, his eyes narrowed into a small slit to see the surrounding environment clearly. When they came to a position about four or five meters away from Fang Lang, the two soldiers let go, and the thin man fell to the ground. Mouth blocked by a rag, whining continuously. Zhuang Xintian stepped forward and pulled out the cloth ball from the man''s mouth. The man took two breaths of fresh air before shouting in English: "Where are my files? You robbers, files. Where are my files?" Although it is **** firmly like a zongzi. The man didn''t seem to panic at this time, and the first thing he said was concerned about the documents he was carrying with him. Hearing what the man said, Fang Lang looked at the portfolio in Zhuang Xintian''s hand. Seeing that Zhuang Xintian wanted to hand it over, Fang Lang hurriedly stopped him: Dont open strangers files, its rude. Please return the file to this gentleman. " While talking about Fang Lang''s return, he winked at Zhuang Xintian, signaling to return the document to the other party. Looking at Zhuang Xintian''s confused expression. Fang Lang shook his head helplessly, it was too unprofessional. Now we already have bacterial weapons. What if the middle-aged man in front of us is an expert in this field? People sprinkle some deadly bacteria on the documents, killing people invisible. You dont know how you will die then. This is not because Fang Lang has delusions of persecution. Rather, this matter is strange, Fang Lang just dealt with two Gestapo. Who can guarantee that this person is not an accomplice of Leo and Paul? Besides, how many serious people will go to the front of the convoy and say that they want to sell something? I really believed you when you said Pengci. If you say its selling things, Ill be damned if I believe you. The man was lying on the ground with his hands tied behind his back. He pinched the file bag that had been stuffed back into his hand with his fingers, obviously heaving a sigh of relief. Fang Lang was taken aback when he saw his relieved movement, did I make a wrong judgment? Is this person''s file okay? After thinking for a while, he took the initiative to say: "This gentleman, I don''t know how to address him?" The man on the ground heard Fang Lang''s question, turned his head in a difficult direction, and looked at Fang Lang. His eyes narrowed even tighter, as if he wanted to take a closer look at Fang Lang''s appearance. "Hi sir! My name is Ludwig Folger, I''m so rude. please do not worry! I really mean no harm, I''m just looking for a good buyer for my research. " Listening to the man''s words, Fang Lang always felt very funny. However, Fang Lang also knew why Zhuang Xintian thought that this man didn''t look like a person who planned evil. Now Fang Lang also feels that the other party should really not be a villain who is deliberately targeting him. Fang Lang did not feel any hostility from the man in front of him. Glanced at Zhuang Xintian and said: "Please untie our guests and ask our guests to sit down." The two soldiers quickly untied the man on the ground with their hands up and down, and helped him stand up. The man did not sit down after being helped up, but straightened his clothes, then bowed to Fang Lang politely, and saluted. Fang Lang was taken aback for a moment, it seemed that he was really not good for his appearance, the thin man in front of him was at most one meter six in height. The whole person looks very thin. If you look at the back and say that you are a junior high school student, no one will doubt it. Only by facing the face can one see that this is a middle-aged man of quite a certain age. The etiquette of middle-aged people is obviously a western gentleman''s etiquette, obviously this is a well-educated gentleman. It''s just that his size makes him look a little funny. "Gentlemen, I wonder if you can give me back my glasses first. Without them, I can''t even see things one meter away." Fang Lang looked at the soldiers around him, and saw one of the soldiers take out a pair of glasses with lenses as thick as the bottom of a beer bottle from his pocket and hand them over. Fang Lang could see the circles of double images on the glasses. Based on Fang Lang''s experience, the prescription of this pair of glasses definitely exceeds 800 degrees. The man took the glasses and put them on the bridge of his nose. Unfortunately, he didn''t know if he was thrown on the ground today, or if they were already deformed. After a few hard twists, the eyes were reset. I saw Fang Lang sitting not far away, Zhuang Xintian standing behind Fang Lang and pressing his hand on the holster, and several guards around him holding Thomson submachine guns. There was no nervous expression on the man''s face, and he looked very calm. Saluted Fang Lang again and said: "Dear sir, I wonder if I''m lucky enough to know your name?" Fang Lang did not continue to sit, but stood up and stretched out his hand to the man in front of him: "Hello, Mr. Folger! My name is Fang Lang, nice to meet you!" (end of this chapter) Chapter 177: Gun Designer Chapter 177 Gun Designer After this man named Ludwig Folger stood up and put on his glasses, he had an indescribable literati temperament. Fang Lang felt that the person in front of him should at least be a university professor. Because of this unhurried demeanor and the bookish atmosphere exuding from his whole body. can make you ignore his short stature and glasses as thick as bottles. At this moment, Fang Lang had a kind of enlightenment, and finally understood what an ancient Chinese saying: "There is poetry and calligraphy in the belly" means. What Fang Lang didn''t expect was that after hearing his name, Mr. Folger said directly in Chinese: "Nice to meet you too. Mr. Fang! Are you from Huaxia?" Although the accent sounds very weird, Fang Lang can still hear it very clearly, and the other party speaks Chinese. This Fang Lang was shocked. "Yes, Mr. Folger, to be precise, I am a Chinese-Brazilian. I didn''t expect you to speak Chinese. It seems that you are indeed a very learned person. You just said you were looking for a buyer for your research. I dont know if you can talk about it in detail? " Fang Lang pointed to the sofa beside him, motioned for the other party to sit down and said. I dont know if it was because he was praised for his knowledge, but Mr. Folger, who had always looked very temperamental, blushed a little when he remembered his rogue behavior lying in front of the car. But he quickly adjusted, and sat on the sofa next to Fang Lang very naturally. Open the file bag that has been held in your hand, pull out a thick stack of documents and put it on the small table in the middle of the sofa. turned sideways to Fang Lang and said: I am a gun designer in the Mauser factory, and this is a new assault rifle I improved on the basis of my original design STG45. I named him Satmai Rifle, I dont know if you are interested in learning about it! " When Mr. Folger said that he was a gun designer, Fang Lang''s eyes lit up. Unexpectedly, he designed an assault rifle. This is the main equipment to replace traditional rifles after World War II! His gaze involuntarily turned to the stack of documents on the small coffee table. "Oh! I didn''t expect you to be a gun designer. I wonder what types of guns you have designed?" He asked Mr. Folger casually, and reached out to the pile of documents. This means that Fang Lang was indeed a little ignorant in his previous life. He only heard that Mr. Folger was a gun designer. But I havent heard of the name of STG45, and I definitely dont know the name of STG44. STG44 should be regarded as the earliest assault rifle, but the concept of assault rifle was not clear at the beginning. This rifle was reported as a machine gun, but when Mustache saw a machine gun with a range of only 500 meters, he was directly rejected. Although Mustache does not understand the excellence of STG44, there are still some people of insight in the army. They boldly changed the number of STG44 to MP44. It turned into a submachine gun and appeared on the battlefield, receiving unanimous praise from the soldiers on the battlefield. Later, Mustache officially named him the STG44 storm-style rifle after he learned about the evaluation of the soldiers on him. officially confirmed his rifle status. And STG45 is the assault rifle that Germany plans to replace STG44 in the latter part of the war. He and STG44 use the same 7.9233mm short bullet, which is versatile in ammunition. But StG45 reduces the rate of fire to only 350 to 450 rounds per minute, saving ammunition and improving accuracy. StG44 adopts long-stroke piston plus bolt offset locking, while StG45 adopts the principle of roller delayed recoil. There are still some differences in the working principle. The roller delayed recoil technology adopted by STG45 was widely adopted by later CETMEL assault rifles, SIGSG510 automatic rifles, HKG3 automatic rifles and MP5 submachine guns. And this Mr. Folger was the designer of the STG45 and later the HK company''s G3 automatic rifle. Now Fang Lang''s Satmai rifle is actually a G3 rifle. Mr. Folger heard Fang Lang''s question, and after looking nervously at the people around him, he gritted his teeth and said: "The MG42 general-purpose machine gun is also designed according to my roller lock principle." Looking down at the rifle on the blueprint in his hand, Fang Lang, who felt a little familiar, raised his head and looked at Mr. Folger in shock after hearing the name of the MG42 general-purpose machine gun. Even if Fang Lang was a layman in his previous life, he has heard of the top name of MG42! This thing is called the "Mustache''s Chainsaw"! The sound of tearing cloth when it shoots is a nightmare for Allied soldiers. "What? Are you the designer of MG42?" "No, no, I just designed the working principle of MG42. It was Dr. Grunov who really shaped MG42. The metal stamping process he adopted is the reason for MG42''s success." Folger waved his hands very modestly. This is also true, MG42 was indeed created by Dr. Grunov. But Dr. Grunov is not a firearms designer. He is an expert in metal stamping technology, and he believes that machine guns are manufactured using metal stamping processes. It is an inevitable trend. The MG42 produced by the metal stamping process not only saves materials and man-hours, but is also more compact, which is very practical for Germany, which lacks metal resources. Also let the MG42 stand out among the bidders. Fang Lang''s mood at the moment simply felt like a big pie fell from the sky, and it didn''t hit him on the head. Instead, it was stuffed into his mouth. This is the designer of MG42! In an instant, the weight of the stack of materials in the hand becomes completely different. Fang Lang began to carefully study the rifle called Setmai in his hand, and Fang Lang''s eyes became brighter the more he looked at it, because he finally recognized the identity of the rifle. I still remember seeing this rifle once when I was watching a video and introducing HK, the most famous weapon company in Germany. Its just that at that time he didnt call it the Satmai rifle, but the G3 rifle. This is the gun type that is called the three outstanding assault rifles together with AK47 and M16! Later generations of HK Company relied on this rifle to become a world-renowned arms company. Maybe some people have never heard of the G3 rifle, but the submachine gun developed on the basis of the G3 rifle, MP5, no one has never heard of it. This is the submachine gun that all major special forces in the world are vying to equip! After recognizing the identity of the weapon in his hand, Fang Lang had already decided that he could not let the person in front of him go. "Mr. Folger, I don''t know how you want to sell your achievement?" "Mr. Fang, can you understand my information? Do you need me to explain it to you?" Mr. Folger is obviously an academic talent, I am afraid that Fang Lang just glanced at the information briefly, and is not clear about the specific design ideas inside. What he didn''t know was that the moment Fang Lang recognized this rifle, he had already decided to take him into his own. "No, Mr. Folger. I am also a soldier, and I can tell a good weapon from a bad one. Don''t know if I could know, why would you want to sell this design? " Fang Lang stared at the baby bump in front of him with burning eyes. "Make a cup of coffee for Mr. Folger." He casually instructed Zhuang Xintian who was standing aside. A soldier leads the order to leave. Folger seemed a little embarrassed about Fang Lang''s question. After a long while, he said: "I need money, I have a family to support, and I haven''t worked for more than half a year. If possible, I would like to find a job abroad. It all costs money. " The historical Ludwig Folger did go to Spain after the war. Later, the Special Materials Technology Research Center in Spain manufactured this rifle called Satmai. In 1952, this rifle attracted the attention of the US military. In 1954, it was changed to fire 7.62mm NATO standard bullets, which were re-imported by Germany and entrusted to HK Company to manufacture. "Mr. Folger, I have a military industrial group in Brazil, and now I am short of an excellent gun designer like you. If you want to leave Germany to develop, I am willing to hire you as the chief designer of the light weapons research room with a high salary. Not sure if you would. Of course, whether you like it or not, I will pay extra for this research result. You can quote directly now, I will not counter-offer. " Folger obviously had never encountered such a tyrannical master, and for a while he didn''t know what to say. He is a gun designer, not a businessman, and he doesn''t know how much he should quote for this weapon. Fang Lang quickly saw his embarrassment. directly opened the mouth and said: If you are willing to work in my company, the benefits will be doubled on your original basis. All research results will give you a certain percentage of patent share according to the sales situation. As long as you nod, I can start to calculate your salary today. As for this design, you have two choices. One is that I buy it out directly with money, and the other is that I will pay you a certain percentage of the patent share every time I produce one. But according to the second method, you must join my company. " At this time, Folger was obviously a little moved, and looked at Fang Lang nervously and said: "I''ve heard that there are many Germans in Brazil?" Yes, this time I came to Germany to find some excellent technical talents. At that time, there will be a lot of Germans going to Brazil to work together, so you dont have to worry about not having friends. If you have your own team and they are willing to go with you, I can also recruit together. " Hearing Folger''s question, Fang Lang understood that Folger''s concern was the same as that of all those who went to work in a foreign country, worrying about not being familiar with the place of life. So, I directly told myself the purpose of coming here this time. And taking advantage of the situation, let Folger invite some other colleagues to go. Fang Lang believes that excellent people will be surrounded by excellent people. In this way, you can easily recruit excellent gunsmiths. You must know that the famous Mauser factory is located in Baden-Wurttemberg. Originally, according to Fang Lang''s plan, he went to the Mauser factory to dig people after dealing with the Stuttgart matter. Now it seems that there is no need, the best talents have automatically jumped into their own bowls. What bike do you want? "Mr. Fang, is it really possible? How many gun designers do you want to recruit? Many of my colleagues are looking for jobs now. If you can recruit together, I would like to go with you. " "My factory has just started construction. If possible, I certainly hope to have a full range of light weapon designers to help me improve the design of all types of weapons. It is my goal to have a full range of weapons with independent intellectual property rights. So I need good gun designers with a real sense of innovation. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 178: Ask the teacher to blame Chapter 178 Asking the teacher to ask the crime Folger was also very excited after hearing Fang Lang''s needs, which meant that many of his colleagues could get out of the current quagmire in Germany. After all, the lives of Germans today are very difficult. "Mr. Fang, don''t worry. Many of my friends are excellent gun designers. I will tell you the good news when I go back today, and I promise to recommend only the best talents to you. " Seeing Mr. Folger, he has already changed the topic, and did not continue to struggle with how much the design information of the rifle will cost. Fang Lang understood that this Mr. Folger had already arrived in his bowl. Facing Adjutant Qi Qingshan said: "Arrange an assistant regiment and two guards to assist Mr. Folger in recruiting. Go to the finance department to collect 5,000 US dollars and give it to Mr. Folger as funds first. If it is not enough, ask them to come back to collect it. " As soon as he heard that Fang Lang wanted to give himself five thousand dollars as expenses, Folger immediately felt that life had begun to become better. He has no memory of exactly how he left Fang Lang''s hotel suite. Mr. Folger, who was tied into the hotel, left with an assistant and two guards with guns. Folger, who took the special car back home, was dizzy all over. When he told his family the good news, everyone hugged and cried together. Completely forgot that the portfolio bag that he had been holding in his hand had been left in the hotel. Fang Lang in the hotel locked the file bag in the safe of the room carefully. In this way, Fang Lang had another senior HR who actively helped Fang Lang and recruited gun designers everywhere. This made Fang Lang want to go to the street every day when he has nothing to do. Just when Fang Lang was in a good mood and wanted to go around the street again, Colonel Chatham of the French occupation army came directly to the door. "Fang, didn''t you say it was just recruiting employees? However, the movement of Mayor Jonas this morning is not as simple as simply recruiting employees. Is there something wrong with our communication? " The appearance of Colonel Chatham was indeed beyond Fang Lang''s expectation. Didn''t expect that he would come to ask the crime because Mayor Jonas called a gathering of business owners. This surprised him a bit. Of course, Fang Lang is not afraid that Colonel Chatham will stop things from proceeding because of this. From his words, Fang Lang understood that this old boy wanted more. But Fang Lang is a little nervous now! It is impossible to spend a lot of money on this Frenchman. Hurriedly went up and gave Colonel Chatham a big hug, Pointing to the sofa in the room, said: "Colonel Chatham, take your time. We are friends, if there is something that is not well communicated, if you call, I will come to you? How can I excuse you to make a trip in person? Just said that Mayor Jonas has made a big move, can you tell me more about it? " Now Colonel Chatham, who is provoking the teacher, is a little misfired! what''s the situation? Did I really wrong Fang? "What exactly did you say to Mayor Jonas last night? Why did so many business owners in Stuttgart go to the city hall to attend the meeting today?" Fang Lang said with an innocent face: "I just explained my request to Mayor Jonas in detail! How many people can be recruited, or how to recruit, I have entrusted Mayor Jonas! " This is not Fang Lang shirking responsibility. If it is implemented according to the plan discussed by Fang Lang and Mayor Jonas, Of course Fang Lang can get a lot of benefits. However, it is these business owners in Germany who make more profits. Of course, Fang Lang can''t let himself bear this pressure. Besides, I still don''t know the outcome of the talks between Mayor Jonas and these business owners. If everyone agrees with the plan he proposed, why would he jump out early! "But what I heard now is that Jonas said that you are going to come forward and build a joint venture factory with these companies in Brazil!" It seems that the French occupation forces are still very good at monitoring the Germans! Just getting ready for the meeting in the morning, Colonel Chatham has already received the exact content of the meeting. "Mr. Colonel, you also said that Mayor Jonas said I was the one who said it! How do you know he wasn''t there as a cover for me?" Chatham felt a little headache when he looked at the young man in front of him. Now there is indeed no evidence to prove that this matter was organized by Fang Lang. It seems that I am a little reckless. But I didn''t really come to ask for trouble. Thinking of this, Colonel Chatham shook his head helplessly and said: "Fang, you have to understand that we are friends. Even if this matter is true, I will not object, after all, this matter is beneficial to me. I came to you because I hope that all of us can treat each other honestly and not hide anything. " Fang Lang shook his head with a smile and said: "Colonel Chatham, it is precisely because we are friends that you should trust me even more. I have made my purpose clear to you from the first time I saw you. I also fully explained my purpose to Mayor Jonas. As long as he can find enough and suitable talents for me. As for whether he captured these talents and gave them to me, or tricked them into giving them to me, I have no opinion. I don''t think you should have an opinion either. After all, our agreement is that I will pay you per head, and there is no need for us to interfere with Mayor Jonas'' work. If it is really like what you said, Mayor Jonas told the business owners that I agreed to build a joint venture factory with them, then I think Mayor Jonas must come up with enough conditions to impress me before I can accept it He proposes it! If his proposal can really be a better fit than me directly recruiting the right talent, I certainly have no problem. Actually, I don''t think you should have any opinions. Because, this means that I will take away more people. Correspondingly, your wine estate dream will be easier to realize, isn''t it? " Colonel Chatham was fooled by Fang Lang, and almost followed Fang Lang''s words, and took it up. Fortunately, he is also a veteran who has experienced so many years of war, and he did not fall into Fang Lang''s language trap all at once. Shaking the head that was still unconsciously nodding just now, he said: "Fang, it''s not that I have an opinion. It''s such a big move. If it spreads to China, I will retire early. At that time, let alone a wine estate, I guess there will be no chance to drink wine again. " Fang Lang shook his head with a smile and said: "Colonel Chatham, I don''t think you should take this as a bad thing. Everything you are doing now is aimed at further reducing Germany''s industrial production potential. Don''t forget, I''m a Confederate Colonel. What we are doing now is tantamount to dismantling Germany''s industrial production potential. If your superior wants to punish you, you should tell the other party your opinion with confidence. He can disagree with you, then you should ask him to come up with a better plan. Then find an argument to refute him. In this way, you just have a political disagreement, how can you not even have a chance to drink wine? Doesn''t this become ****? " Now Colonel Chatham was really dumbfounded. Why did the same thing change when it came to you? Are you sure you''re just a soldier? Are all your Brazilian soldiers so good at turning black and white? But Colonel Chatham had to agree with Fang Lang''s point of view, and kept feeling in his heart, "I learned it, I learned it." "Okay! Fang, I am convinced by you again. You''d better tell Mayor Jonas to keep a low profile and don''t make it too difficult for me. If the country sends an investigation team to investigate, we will not be able to explain it. " Seeing that Colonel Chatham really let go, Fang Lang didn''t want to continue to dwell on this topic too much. hurriedly said: "Don''t worry! Leave it to me, I''ll ask Jonas what happened. It will definitely not be difficult for Mr. Colonel. " Originally, Mayor Jonas was introduced to Fang Lang by Colonel Chatham, but now Fang Lang took the initiative to embrace the communication between the two. Both of them are tacit, nothing more. Colonel Chatham came and went as fast as he could. Fang Lang personally sent Colonel Chatham to the hotel door, turned around and explained to Qi Qingshan: "Go to the municipal government to find out the situation, see if their meeting is over, and if there are any specific results of the discussion. If the meeting is over, make another appointment with Mayor Jonas, I want to talk to him about other business. " Qi Qingshan knew what other business Fang Lang was talking about, so he quickly stood at attention and nodded. "Yes, boss!" Just as Qi Qingshan turned around and was about to go to the city hall, there was suddenly a fierce exchange of fire outside. Fang Lang turned his head quickly to see that the bullet hadn''t entered the hotel. Obviously the opponent''s target is not himself. Just when Fang Lang breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to relax, he immediately reacted again. Looks like Colonel Chatham has been attacked. This is not acceptable, now Colonel Chatham is my friend, and I still need his cover for my work in Stuttgart. If he dies, the next occupying army chief may not necessarily have the same dream of owning a wine estate as Chatham. Therefore, the attacker must not be allowed to succeed. Just when Fang Lang was about to call his guards and go out to help, the corner of his eyes suddenly fell away. There were two Germans in the hotel lobby at the moment, looking for the bunker as if they were frightened. Originally, this was a very normal thing, but Fang Lang and the others felt that there was something wrong with the two of them the first time they swept each other down. Of course, this question is not directed at him. Fang Lang noticed that although the two were looking for cover, they did not look in the direction of the attack like everyone else, avoiding bullets that might fly in the direction of the gunshots. Instead, he was silently staring at a door behind the hotel. Because Fang Lang is a person who is afraid of death, so after staying in this hotel, he asked his soldiers to find out the inside and outside of the entire hotel. And also made a basic understanding of the hotel''s security forces. Because many of the people living here are inextricably linked to the French occupation forces, the occupation forces placed a platoon of soldiers in the backyard of the hotel to take charge of the hotel''s security. And this platoon usually lives in the dormitory behind this door. If the French platoon hears gunshots and rushes to the front to support, the distance from this door is the shortest. (end of this chapter) Chapter 179: attacked Chapter 179 Attacked Seeing this scene, Fang Lang immediately came to a conclusion. While pulling out a pistol from his waist, he patted Qi Qingshan who was standing in front of him and said: "Watch out for the two Germans at three o''clock, they have a problem." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Qi Qingshan didn''t turn his head, but quietly pointed the gun in his hand at the two men who were still pretending to avoid. Zhuang Xintian''s voice came from behind: "Boss, let''s retreat to the room first! It''s too dangerous here." Of course Fang Lang knew it was dangerous here, but the gunshots outside kept ringing, indicating that Colonel Chatham was still resisting, and he wanted to do a little favor. Looking at the small door behind the hotel, he couldn''t help cursing inwardly, the French were unresponsive. If the enemy really attacks the residents in the hotel, with your reaction time, by the time you come in, everyone will be dead. Although I don''t know what the specific goals of the two people in the hotel lobby are. Fang Lang felt that they could not be allowed to succeed. "Xintian, pay attention to the two Germans at three o''clock." Zhuang Xintian heard Fang Lang''s words, and looked at the two Germans from the corner of his eye, just as Zhuang Xintian was about to speak. Finally, more than a dozen French soldiers with rifles rushed out of the back door. The soldiers still showed a certain combat effectiveness, at least the battle formation was maintained fairly well. Come to the hotel entrance, face the gunmen who are besieging the convoy outside, and start to fight. Fang Lang should be able to see the enemy from the window at a distance of more than two hundred meters. Seeing this situation, Fang Lang couldn''t help but start cursing in his heart. With such a long distance, are your marksmanship so good? Direct fire like this, in addition to attracting part of the enemy''s firepower, how effective is it? Before Fang Lang could express his opinion, Zhuang Xintian stood in front of Fang Lang and pushed him upstairs. The surrounding guards also took out their guns one after another, looking like they were facing an enemy. Two Germans who were about to make a move accidentally saw this scene. Looked at each other, lying on the ground directly, no longer looking around, but the two of them always had a hand hidden near their abdomen. Seeing this, Fang Lang still didn''t understand what was going on. It seems that these two guys are going to sneak up on the French occupying forces in the hotel from behind. Now, he is frightened by the defensive actions of his own guards, and dare not act rashly again. However, Fang Lang felt that there was no need to attack them from behind in terms of the combat effectiveness displayed by the French army in the hotel. It is also difficult for them to have much influence on the battle outside. But the current passive situation is not what Fang Lang wants. "Arrange four people to guard the lobby, and focus on guarding against enemies that may exist in the hotel." Fang Lang winked at Zhuang Xintian, signaling him to focus on the two Germans lying on the ground. said again: "Didn''t you tell me last time that you have two snipers in your team with good marksmanship? Arrange them to go upstairs and support Colonel Chatham from a distance. Solve the more dangerous enemies for them. " Although the French army in the hotel is not capable of fighting, it is so close to the headquarters of the occupying army. Soldiers should soon be able to support Colonel Chatham. Fang Lang looked at the situation of the guards around him. In the end, he gave up his plan to rush out to help. After all, his own people are all wearing casual clothes now, and if they rush out later, they may be accidentally injured by the French army. At that time, I still cant tell. However, long-range sniper firepower can help. "Yes, boss!" Zhuang Xintian took the order and signaled his two men to leave to carry out the order. Fang Lang looked at the two lying Germans again, thought for a while and said: "If it''s over later, arrange someone to keep an eye on these two guys." Zhuang Xintian nodded to express his understanding. Fang Lang walked up the stairs under the protection of Qi Qingshan. The soldiers were worried about whether there were other enemies in the hotel, so they moved forward very carefully. There were soldiers on guard at the front and back, and even forced back a few residents who were about to come out to check the situation. But Fang Lang didn''t care, after all, this place is now the key protection object of the French. It is unlikely that there are many enemies hidden in the hotel. As for the two Germans in the lobby, it is estimated that there is no way to come up, so they can only look for opportunities in the lobby. However, if you want to attack behind the French army, it can only be more convenient in the lobby. Fang Lang, who returned to the hotel room, hid behind the wall and observed the situation outside through the gap in the curtains. On the road more than 200 meters away from the hotel, there were a truck at the front and back, blocking the four jeeps of the French army on the road. The first jeep has crashed into the van and is smoking. The doors of the jeep behind were all open, and some soldiers in French military uniforms were lying or squatting on both sides. There were more than a dozen corpses lying on the ground. Fang Lang didn''t see Colonel Chatham. "Has anyone seen what happened to Colonel Chatham?" "Boss, I haven''t seen Colonel Chatham''s situation, but I feel that the attackers should withdraw. Do you need us to go down and confirm the situation. " Zhuang Xintian was looking out from behind the curtain on the other side. "We are just guests, don''t overwhelm the guests and cause unnecessary misunderstandings." Fang Lang said while taking out the telescope to look out. "But, boss, if something happens to Mr. Colonel Chatham, will our actions be affected!" Qi Qingshan obviously also understands that Fang Lang''s actions in Stuttgart now require the support of Colonel Chatham. "The impact is sure to have an impact. But, right now we can''t help either! Unless the French give us authorization, we cannot actively participate in it ourselves. " Fang Lang is also very helpless! Everything was going well and step by step. Who would have thought that Colonel Chatham, who came to find him, would be attacked as soon as he walked out of the hotel! Now Fang Lang hopes that the French will not include themselves as targets of suspicion. "Boss, the French reinforcements have arrived." Qi Qingshan was the first to discover that the reinforcements had arrived. "I saw that the headquarters of the occupying army is so close to the site of the attack, the French army''s reaction is a bit slow! It took seven or eight minutes before reinforcements arrived on the scene. If it is later, it will not be used. " Watching the battle downstairs, Fang Lang involuntarily began to comment. Suddenly a signal light exploded in the sky. Fang Lang quickly turned the telescope to find the location where the signal flare was fired. Zhuang Xintian''s voice came from next to his ear: "Boss, the attackers are starting to evacuate. Their movements are firm. No wonder they have been fighting for so long. There are not many of them, and there are only four people who can evacuate now. " But Fang Lang didn''t continue to watch the battle below, but became a little worried because he found that the signal light was launched from the roof of the hotel. Leaning against the wall, Fang Lang couldn''t help but start to mutter in his heart. The attacker''s mastermind also lived in the hotel. It seems that the hotel is not safe! "Xintian, the signal flare was launched from the roof of the hotel building, arrange two soldiers to go up to see if they can stop the commander. It seems that the hotel is not safe! We don''t have many people, and now we have to be more cautious. " "Yes, boss, I''ll go and have a look in person." "Then be careful, control the suspicious ones first, and don''t let the suspects slip through the net. I don''t want to live with these rebels. " "clear." Zhuang Xintian rushed out of the room without looking back. "Boss, I see Colonel Chatham, he''s under the penultimate jeep." Qi Qingshan''s words suddenly rang in his ears. Hearing the words, Fang Lang raised his binoculars to look at the scene again. Sure enough, I saw a figure crawling out from under the penultimate jeep. Although it looks a bit embarrassed. However, it can still be distinguished that this person is indeed Colonel Chatham. After climbing out, Colonel Chatham lay on the ground and did not stand up. Press the right arm with the gun on the arm of the left hand. Appears to be injured. It''s okay, it didn''t hang up directly. Fang Lang didn''t care if the other party was timid and afraid of death! He simply didn''t want to reconnect with a new occupying commander. "The French army in the hotel also touched it. But this is cautious enough, the enemy has already evacuated before they dared to rush out of the hotel. " Hearing Qi Qingshan''s ridicule, Fang Lang smiled and said: "It''s good enough if they don''t surrender, you still expect them to rush upwards without fear of death? The requirements are a bit high. " Everyone in the room laughed. It seems that everyone knows the meme about the French like to surrender. Finally the gunfire outside stopped. Fang Lang noticed that the French soldiers had begun to chase along the direction in which the attackers retreated. However, Fang Lang estimated that they would not gain much. After all, there were only four surviving attackers. Scatter and escape, and it will be difficult to be found once you drill into the alley. I saw several French soldiers had walked up to Colonel Chatham and surrounded him. Colonel Chatham stood up with the support of the soldiers. Seeing this, Fang Lang was relieved, at least he didn''t have to worry about changing partners. "Boss, should we go down and have a look?" Qi Qingshan looked at Fang Lang and said. Fang Lang shook his head and said: "Now everyone''s nerves are tense, our people have guns, don''t cause unnecessary trouble in the past! But you must keep an eye on the two suspicious targets found in the lobby. See if you can find their lair. Let''s wait and see if Xintian can find the person who fired the signal flare on the top floor. " Fang Lang, who was thinking about whether to go out more and found some outstanding talents, was not in the mood at this time. It seems that the security situation in Stuttgart is indeed not as good as expected. If I go out by myself later, surrounded by people like this, I think it will be cold. After all, I don''t have French reinforcements. And even if the French could send reinforcements to rescue him, Fang Lang didn''t quite believe in the efficiency of the French. Maybe its just like Hong Kong and Taiwan movies, the police show up at the end of the film to clean up the mess. But today''s attack made Fang Lang a little strange. This is an attack with a clear goal, and it is estimated that it is aimed at Colonel Chatham. But Chatham came to the hotel to find him today, obviously it was a temporary arrangement! I have not received any notification. How did the enemy know? It can''t be that the French army has ghosts inside itself! But why didn''t the opponent attack when Colonel Chatham and the others came out, but when they went back? Fang Lang began to analyze this matter in his heart. He didn''t want to help Colonel Chatham find the murderer, although he thought he and Colonel Chatham were friends. However, Stuttgart is now the territory of the French, and no one else has asked you for help. What kind of wolf with a big tail are you posting it yourself! He just doesn''t want himself to be a **** used by others. (end of this chapter) Chapter 180: help Chapter 180 Help Fang Lang, who was sitting in the hotel room, unconsciously lit a cigar. I don''t know when it started, Fang Lang, who doesn''t come and doesn''t smoke, has gradually become a little bit of a smoker. Especially when you need to use your brain to concentrate on thinking about something. I dont know how long Ive been here. Zhuang Xintian, who went to the top floor to find the suspect who fired the flare, came back. "Boss, I didn''t see anyone on the roof. However, I met three people coming down the stairs on the stairs, but I am not sure if there will be a signaler in the middle. I can only bring them all down. " Glancing at Zhuang Xintian, Fang Lang waved his hand indifferently and said: "It''s okay, we don''t need to know who sent the signal, this is what the French should care about. At that time, just call these people a Frenchman. " "Boss, should we first investigate who sent the signal!" Seeing Fang Lang looking at him suspiciously, Zhuang Xintian quickly explained: "My main concern is if these people have associates in the hotel. It would be nice if we weren''t involved at all, but now we''ve got the signaler. When someone wants revenge, will it affect your safety? " Putting the cigar on the ashtray, Fang Lang thought for a while and said: "What you said makes sense, then I will leave this matter to you to investigate. However, we do not have the right to enforce the law here, and we must pay attention to the method and method of doing things. Don''t leave people talking, understand? " After listening to Fang Lang''s words, Zhuang Xintian was in a bit of trouble. He is a soldier. If you ask him to organize an attack, he has no problem making a battle plan. However, asking him to solve the case now, wouldn''t it be embarrassing for him? "Boss, I don''t have any experience in this field! Why don''t we just hand it over to the French." Fang Lang looked at Zhuang Xintian dumbfounded and said: "What kind of experience does this require? Everyone has been arrested by you. You can smell the gunpowder smoke on the hands of a few people! The signal flare is not an ordinary pistol, and it will definitely leave a lot of smell. If they have finished washing their hands, they can go upstairs and look for the traces left by the person who sent the signal upstairs! Like footprints or something. You can also interrogate a few people to see who was the most suspicious at that time! Is there an alibi or something like that. well! There are so many ideas in this investigation! You never completely understand it! If it doesnt work, you can hand it over to the French to investigate. We just need to be careful, there shouldn''t be many rebels in this hotel. " Zhuang Xintian, who was still a little frowning, lit up after hearing what Fang Lang said. "Understood, boss. Then I''ll check now to see if I can find the suspect? " Fang Lang didn''t expect that Zhuang Xintian would be interested in these things, and he didn''t know if he wanted to be a detective. But Fang Lang doesn''t mind his versatility. Soon Zhuang Xintian came back. "Boss, you are really right. One of the people has a very obvious smell of gunpowder on his hands. It must be the signal sent by this bastard. " Unexpectedly, things would be so simple. Fang Lang just said it casually, and he solved the case directly. Even Fang Lang couldn''t believe it himself, When did I have the potential to be a detective? Smiling and shaking his head, he said to Zhuang Xintian: "Okay, send these people to Colonel Chatham together! What happens next, let''s not get too involved. Whether there is any secret in it, we don''t know. Don''t make it to the end and get angry. " "Ah! All three to them? I have released the other two! Are you worried that they are a gang? " "Can you be sure they are not in the same gang?" "cannot." "That''s it, do you have the information of those two people? Is it a resident of the hotel, or who? " "I registered their basic information, and they all said they were residents of the hotel." "Then let''s report these situations to the French! Could our snipers help? " "Yes, boss, they killed three rebels." "That''s good, remember to take the initiative to tell Colonel Chatham about this credit. We still need to leave a name for doing good deeds, understand? " "Yes, sir." Watching Zhuang Xintian turn and leave, Fang Lang shook his head helplessly. It seems that everyone around me needs to study hard! This brain has already started to grow muscles, this is not good, so I will be too tired. At this time, Colonel Chatham was not in such a good mood as Fang Lang. "You idiots, the enemy has already touched the entrance of our headquarters to attack me, and you don''t know anything about the enemy''s situation. From now on, the whole city is under martial law. You must find these **** for me, and I will hang them. " Sitting in the car, the military doctor was dealing with the wound on his arm. Colonel Chatham was in a rage. The subordinates around him were as quiet as a cicada, not daring to make a sound. They also feel dull. Being blocked by the enemy at your door and trying to kill your own chief, no one can accept this kind of thing. "Yes, sir. Our men have gone after those guys." "Also, how did they know my whereabouts, my itinerary today is a temporary arrangement, no one knows at all. Why would they ambush me here? Find out why for me. " Colonel Chatham said he came here during the war years, and he has his own experience in this kind of ambush attack. directly pointed out the abnormal part in the middle. "Sir, could it be that the side that met you leaked your whereabouts!" Chatham must have suspected this situation, but after thinking about it, he ruled it out. Because even Fang Lang didn''t know that he would suddenly go to him today. Moreover, he is very important to Fang Lang, and he has no reason to launch such an attack. If the personnel have already moved away and do not want to pay themselves to launch such an attack, Chatham can still understand. Now the cooperation has just entered the preparation stage, it is impossible for everyone to turn their faces at this time. As far as Fang Lang''s people are concerned, he doesn''t believe that he has the ability to mobilize so many people to attack him. The most important thing is that Fang Lang has many people of color under his command. And the attackers are indeed white, so they must be Germans. But who are the specific people, you need to investigate slowly to find out. "It won''t be theirs. I haven''t even notified the other party at all. I''m going to meet him today." The subordinates around him don''t have a clue, they can only look at me and I look at you. One guy said whether it was intentional or unintentional: "Sir, could it be that someone within us accidentally leaked your whereabouts!" All the people around looked at the officer with unkind eyes. All cursed in their hearts, there are so many people here, it is unexpected, but you are the smartest, knowing that it might be your own side who leaked the secret. How could everyone not know such a simple truth! It''s just that everyone is suspicious of this matter, who would foolishly reveal this matter? Colonel Chatham also knew very well in his heart that this possibility was very high, but he couldn''t say it himself, which would chill the hearts of his subordinates. But now that someone has taken the initiative to bring it up, I can just arrange personnel to investigate it. "The possibility you mentioned cannot be ruled out, although I trust our people. However, in order to prove everyone''s innocence, I will arrange for someone to investigate. " What does it mean to prove everyones innocence? After all, its not that I also doubt it, and the insiders have problems. But this is the authority of the chief, and they can''t say anything more. can only echo and agree. Soon the site was cleaned up. The corpses of both the enemy and us have been gathered, and they are ready to be pulled into the car and taken back for inspection slowly. At this time, a soldier came to report that he was a friend of Colonel Chatham, and he caught the guy who fired the signal flare on the roof of the building in the hotel. Chatham recognized it as well, and it was Fang Lang''s guard platoon leader who escorted people over. "Hello, sir, Brazilian navy second lieutenant Zhuang Xintian, was ordered to **** the suspect of the attack to report to you." "Thank you! Second Lieutenant Zhuang, do you mean that this person is the suspect who attacked my convoy that you just discovered?" After Zhuang Xintian hurriedly attacked, Fang Lang took those measures and explained them in detail to Colonel Chatham. "You mean, this guy is the one who fired the signal flare to notify the enemy to retreat?" "Yes, sir. We blocked him on the stairs when we got to the top floor. His hand still smelled of gunpowder from firing the flare gun. So, we just caught him. " At this time, an officer next to him said in a dissatisfied tone: "Why didn''t you immediately arrange for rescue personnel after you knew our officer was attacked?" "Reporting to the officer, at that time, there were French soldiers shooting outside the door of the hotel. We were worried that we would cause unnecessary misunderstanding if we rashly joined the battle. However, we arranged for snipers upstairs to assist you in killing the three attackers. " Colonel Chatham glanced dissatisfied at the officer who spoke out. I understand Zhuang Xintian''s explanation very well. If the opponent really rushed out, he would really be a little uncertain whether the opponent came to kill him or to kill him. "I understand, please go back and express my thanks to Fang for me, and I will come to express my thanks to him in person when I finish handling the matter at hand. By the way, please help me remind him that we will impose martial law on Stuttgart in the past two days, and advise him not to go out. " When Zhuang Xintian heard it, martial law would be imposed, which would be very detrimental to their recruitment work! However, when others are attacked and want to catch the murderer, martial law is the right of others, and they cannot express any objection. "Yes, sir. I will pass on your words to our chief." After speaking, he gave a military salute and then turned and left. Colonel Chatham pointed to the adjutant beside him and said: "Immediately interrogate this bastard, the only assailant so far captured alive. Must pry his mouth open, I want to know who attacked me. " The surrounding French officers did not expect that the first to catch the attacker was not their own. This makes them feel very shameless. Secretly, he must hurry up and dig out all the rebels who attacked his chief. "Yes, sir." (end of this chapter) Chapter 181: invited Chapter 181 Invited Because of a sudden attack against the French army, Stuttgart entered a state of martial law throughout the city. Fang Lang''s recruitment operation came to a standstill. Originally, Fang Lang thought that this would have a bad impact on recruitment. But the facts are completely different from what Fang Lang expected. The French martial law action did not have any adverse effects on Fang Lang''s plan. Instead, all German business owners are more eager to reach a cooperation agreement with Fang Lang as soon as possible. At first, Fang Lang was puzzled when he received the call from Mayor Jonas. It wasn''t until later when he was eating in the hotel that he heard the discussion of the people at the next table that he understood what was going on. It turned out that the French army took advantage of this opportunity of martial law to exploit all business owners again. If the French army cannot be satisfied, it may become a suspect of the rebels. Business owners can only bankrupt their fortunes to eliminate disasters. And this has further aggravated the pessimistic view of German business owners on the future of Germany. Let people who were still a little hesitant begin to actively join this plan. As soon as the martial law was lifted, Mayor Jonas invited Fang Lang to the city hall to meet with representatives of various entrepreneurs. Fang Lang signed joint venture agreements with more than forty factories within two days. These factories include Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Bosch, ZF, Continental Tire and a series of well-known companies in later generations. Directly collect all the spare parts suppliers required for the production of automobiles. Looking at the thick stack of cooperation agreements in his hand, Fang Lang didn''t have much joy, but was a little wary. The reason is very simple. When these agreements were actually signed, Fang Lang discovered a big problem. The investment scale of this project is too large. If you add that you are going to continue to negotiate with the Germans on machine tool manufacturing companies, you need more capital investment. This made him worry about the chain of his funds for the first time. If I continue to invest in such an unrestrained way, it is very likely that there will be dire consequences of breaking the capital chain. Then all your efforts will be in vain. This is absolutely unacceptable to him. Fortunately, after the agreement is signed, I don''t have to immediately invest all the funds in one go. Still time to find a solution. Not long after Fang Lang had just signed the agreement, a telegram from Brazil disrupted Fang Lang''s plan to continue discussing with Mayor Jonas about introducing the machine tool industry. "Boss, this is an urgent telegram from China." Qi Qingshan hurriedly took a telegram and knocked on Fang Lang''s door. Fang Lang took the telegram casually and looked at it. "It seems that our General Dutra is the real winner!" Qi Qingshan must have read the contents of the telegram, after all, this is not something that needs to be kept secret. "Boss, General Dutra came to power through a military coup, why is he still participating in a democratic election? He has the support of our army, so why bother with the views of those political parties. Isn''t he afraid of losing the election? After all, the influence of former President Vargas in the political arena is very huge. " "What nonsense. When did General Dutra launch a military coup? The reason for Brazil''s military control is to cut off the riots of Japanese mobs in Brazil. Our Brazilian army only suppressed the impact of the Brazilian mob on the presidential palace. There is no military coup. " Fang Lang stared at Qi Qingshan fiercely. Qi Qingshan apologized repeatedly when he knew he had made a slip of the tongue. "Yes, what the boss taught me was that the subordinate made a slip of the tongue. I mean, General Dutra never originally said he was running for president. Why can you confirm that you can win in such a short period of time? Aren''t you afraid that the bamboo basket will be empty? " Fang Lang was quite surprised that Qi Qingshan raised such a question on his own initiative. After all, this involves Dao, the political struggle at the top of the country, it is unexpected that Qi Qingshan would care about this. "What? Are you interested in becoming a politician?" "No, no, the subordinate is just curious. General Dutra does not belong to that political party. Why was he able to defeat his competitors and be elected president? If we know the reasons for this, wont the boss also have the opportunity to make a president in the future. " If someone else said this in front of Fang Lang, Fang Lang must investigate carefully to see if this guy has any bad intentions. Brazil''s president is not a good job, if you don''t do it well, you will lose your head. And once he becomes president, he is put under a magnifying glass. A little carelessness will lead to ruin. Brazil''s political atmosphere of corruption determines that any head of government will inevitably be stained with corruption and bribery, regardless of whether he is voluntary or not. As far as Fang Lang knows, even in later generations, the Brazilian president is often impeached for corruption and bribery to step down. This is a high-risk position. For Fang Lang, to be a glamorous president for a while, it is better to hide aside and make a fortune silently! I have no interest in the position of president. Being a president in Brazil is far less comfortable than being a general in the military. But I know a little about the question you asked, but we can only chat in private. You can''t go around talking nonsense. " Qi Qingshan is Fang Lang''s childhood friend after all, and talking to him about some things can really increase his knowledge. Broaden his horizons, and he will be able to see the big picture when doing things in the future, which will be more beneficial to himself. "Boss, don''t worry, I just have some doubts, and I want to ask you to clarify my doubts, and I will definitely not spread it around without knowing the importance." "Do you understand the political situation in Brazil? Or do you know how many parties there are in Brazil?" Since he wanted to broaden Qi Qingshan''s horizons, Fang Lang decided to explain the current situation in Brazil to him. In fact, this is Fang Lang''s understanding of this aspect because of the knowledge he has learned from later generations. Based on the elite education policies implemented in Europe, America and Brazil, this knowledge is actually knowledge that can only be mastered by the elite and cannot be disseminated. It is very difficult for people at the bottom to have access to this knowledge and have the ability to analyze it. "I know that there is a Labor Party established by the Social Democratic Party, the National League, and President Vargas." "Then do you know whose interests they represent?" This question really caught Qi Qingshan, who was born in a big soldier. The Brazilian Social Democratic Party is a political group mainly represented by large landowners and large manor owners. Their main members are the high-income groups in Brazil. At the same time, they are also the largest vested interest group in Brazil. Agriculture, forestry, and animal husbandry are their main positions. The most powerful of them is the coffee industry consortium. Presidents before President Vargas were almost all appointed by them. In general, they now belong to the middle party, more pragmatic, with a certain bourgeois color, but they do not refuse to be close to the Soviet Union. The National League is a party that emerged with the rise of capitalism. They mainly represent the interests of the bourgeoisie. Most of them are a group of elites who have received modern education in Europe and America, advocating the liberal and democratic ideas of Europe and America. They are also the most pro-American party in China. The last is the Labor Party established by President Vargas. The establishment of the Labor Party has certain particularities. It is an attempt by President Vargas from dictatorship to democracy. His partisan ideology was influenced by the Soviet Union, and also influenced by the dictatorial ideology of the Communist Party of China. It is a hodgepodge of ideas. They value state-owned natural resources more. Several state-owned companies in Brazil were established under his hands, such as the current Vale. But they are different from the Soviet Union, they are not a political party representing the interests of the workers and peasants. But they were very clever and learned a lot of practical skills from the Soviets. For example, they will take the initiative to raise the wages of workers, reduce working hours, establish trade unions, etc. It''s a pity that these are just their means, not their goals. But they have a lot of influence in the workers and peasant groups through this means. If it wasn''t for the fact that the Labor Party was established for too short a time, Mr. Vargas could have easily been elected president this time without manipulating the election. Perhaps Mr. Vargas will be re-elected in the next presidential election. " Hearing Fang Lang''s analysis of the three domestic parties in Brazil, Qi Qingshan immediately had a clear understanding of the domestic political environment. There is simply a feeling of seeing the sun behind the clouds. I am no longer as confused as I used to be and don''t know what''s going on. He didn''t care about Fang Lang''s judgment that Vargas would be re-elected president. Whoever became president had little to do with him. What he didn''t know was that Fang Lang actually revealed the future history to him. Because five years later, that is, in 1950, Vargas will indeed be elected as the new president with an absolute majority of votes. "Then why is General Dutra elected in this presidential election?" Qi Qingshan already knew about the party situation in Brazil, but he still didn''t understand why the military general was elected as the new president. Fang Lang smiled and looked at Qi Qingshan and said: "Because the presidential candidates of the Social Democratic Party and the National League are both General Dutra!" "Ah! I understand that President Vargas'' manipulation of the election has caused dissatisfaction with the Social Democratic Party and the National League. So, the two parties simply united. No wonder General Dutra came to form a military government. It turned out that they had already Finally, Qi Qingshan, who solved the doubts in his heart, was greatly shocked. Unexpectedly, what ordinary people read in the newspapers every day is that the Japanese mob was expelled, the mob controlled the presidential palace, and the president was injured. These are all fake. It turned out that the black hands behind it were the Social Democratic Party and the National League. They joined forces to support the military representative General Dutra''s counterattack against President Vargas'' manipulation of elections. The result is obviously that the three major parties suffer losses, and the biggest beneficiary becomes the military representative, General Dutra. "Then now General Dutra invites you to attend his inauguration, are you going?" Fang Lang rolled his eyes at Qi Qingshan and said: "Aren''t you talking nonsense? I''m a captain of the navy. I don''t even participate in Mr. President''s inauguration. What do you want to express! Not satisfied with his presidency? " "However, we are now at a critical moment in Germany! Wouldn''t your leaving at this time make us leaderless?" "Do I need to personally participate in everything? Now I have finished the main work in the early stage. The rest is up to you, just communicate with Mayor Jonas and Colonel Chatham. You must be personally responsible for the actions of Mr. Polman and Mr. Folger. Absolutely nothing can go wrong. Understand? " "Yes, boss." "The side monitoring Leo and Paul, you must inform me as soon as there is any new situation, don''t be good at it, understand?" "Yes, boss." (end of this chapter) Chapter 182: Rebels Chapter 182 Rebel Army It has been three days since Colonel Chatham, the commander of the French occupation force, was attacked. In an abandoned factory on the outskirts of Stuttgart, there were some messy footprints on the white snow, which made the wild dogs who had been hunting nearby hide. In a dilapidated factory building in the factory, more than a dozen men with nervous expressions were vigilantly looking out of the window through the air leaking window. The leader was a middle-aged man who lost a little finger on his left hand. Different from the tense looking men around him, this man looked very calm, as if he was next to his own stove, he leisurely lit a pile of sundries, and stretched his blue hands from the cold back and forth on the flame is baking. The men all around looked around vigilantly, and their eyes glanced at the fire in the middle from time to time. The expression in his eyes is indeed not desire, but worry. "Okay, don''t be so nervous one by one, it''s just a small fire, it won''t attract the French, arrange a person to guard around, everyone come to enjoy the fire! The **** weather is so cold. " The middle-aged man said impatiently. "Sir, why do you think Chief Leon asked us to come here?" An older man continued to observe the outdoor situation unmoved, while asking the middle-aged man. After hearing the man''s question, the middle-aged man said dissatisfiedly: "You ask me, who am I to ask! These Gestapo are hiding and hiding when they do things, and they are not straightforward at all." The man waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Sir, do you think you found something?" The eyes of the middle-aged man flickered, and he said to the people around him with a playful expression: "He is responsible for hiding things, isn''t it easy to find?" People around began to reveal slightly excited expressions, as if the tension had also been relieved. "Now you should think about whether he will swallow this batch of things." "Sir, isn''t this used as military expenditure for our resistance? If he dares to swallow us, kill him." Hearing this, the middle-aged man let out a disdainful smile. These idiots haven''t figured out the situation until now, and they still think that Germany still has a chance to make a comeback. But that''s fine, if it wasn''t for these naive guys, how could he have the opportunity to come into contact with such a large sum of wealth. Although he looked down on these idiots under him, he was very wary of this Gestapo named Leon. Because he knew what a horrible guy this was. What he couldn''t understand the most was why this guy was willing to take out this wealth and use it as military expenses for the rebels. Leon is a clear-headed and cruel guy. Is he really so loyal to the Fhrer? This is really hard for him to believe. Seeing that the middle-aged man didn''t speak, and the people around him also had different expressions, they didn''t ask any more questions. Continue to silently observe the surrounding environment, but the mood that was very tense just now has eased slightly. I don''t know how long they have been here, but when these people got impatient with waiting, one of them saw two black shadows slowly approaching the hiding place from a distance. "Sir, there are two people here. It looks like Sir Leon." When the middle-aged man heard the report, he quickly got up and raised his binoculars to look at the two figures on the snow. Both of them were wrapped tightly, unable to see their faces clearly. However, from the way one of them walked, he still recognized the other person. "They are here. You continue to observe the surrounding situation, and pay attention to whether there is a tail behind them. I will go to meet them." After finishing speaking, he handed the binoculars to the person beside him, put on his gloves, put on a scarf and walked out of the hiding place, facing the two people opposite. Seeing the smoke billowing from the house in the distance, and slowly approaching the dilapidated factory building, one of the two frowned, and looked around with some dissatisfaction. Seeing that there is nothing abnormal around, continue to move forward. The two were walking in the snow, their bodies were so tightly wrapped that it was impossible to see their identities clearly. "Sir, a person came out inside." Both of them saw a person walking out of the house. Hearing the subordinate''s report, the other just snorted coldly and didn''t say much. Instead, continue to move forward. Soon the two sides met at a collapsed brick wall in the factory area. I saw a man who came out of the factory raised his hand and saluted: "Sir Leon, Sabio Robin, the former major of the 2nd Battalion of the SS Fhrer''s Guards, is reporting to you." The two people on the other side also raised their hands in salute. "Major Robin, we meet again. Go inside and talk! It''s too cold outside." Later one of the two became humane. Soon, several people passed through the ruined wall and entered the dilapidated house where everyone was hiding. The two people who entered took off the scarves around their necks and the hats on their heads. He raised his right hand and saluted with everyone in the room. There was a neat shout of "Hey! Hettler" from the house. The two people who entered the room were Polman''s neighbor Leo and Leo''s chief. This man''s real name is clearly not Paul. "Sir, is it time to start action?" Major Robin couldn''t wait, the greed in his eyes flashed away. Leon heard his inquiry, but did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "Major Robin, what are my orders to you?" Obviously, he didn''t expect Lieutenant Colonel Leon of the Gestapo in front of him to ask this question. Can''t help complaining in my heart, you really treat me like a green onion, I belong to the SS, not you Gestapo. Everyone is working together temporarily, and they really want to give orders to Lao Tzu as an officer! But he certainly won''t show it directly. After all, the other party promised to provide them with military expenses, but the money is not the other party''s own, so why are you so arrogant. "Sir, the order we received half a month ago was to hide and stand by, waiting for your call." No matter how much opinion you have in your heart, you still have to show enough respect on the surface. Otherwise, why should others provide you with military expenses? "Then do you follow the order?" Leon''s tone was still calm, and he couldn''t hear any emotional fluctuations. But Leo, who was standing beside Leon, secretly took a step back. Leo has a clear understanding of his chief. Behind the seemingly calm appearance at this moment, there are hidden volcanoes that may erupt on a large scale at any time. Hearing Leon''s question, Robin understood that he knew about the actions of himself and others a few days ago. So this is to ask for guilt. "Sir! Listen to me, we also happened to meet the other commander going out. At that time, the time was very rushed and we had no time to inform you. But this opportunity is too rare for us to give up. " "So, you don''t think you''re at fault, do you?" Leon, whose tone became even colder, tapped his fingers on his thigh unconsciously. This is his expression of anger. "Sir, we are the rebels, of course there is nothing wrong with attacking the Frenchman!" Robin continued to plead with his neck. Leon slapped the hand on his thigh, and slapped the face of the idiot in front of him. There was a loud "snap", which made everyone around tremble. Standing neatly in place, not daring to move. "You still know that you are a rebel army! Now the French are under martial law all over the city to search for your whereabouts. How dare you burn a fire here to keep warm. Dont know if the smoke from your fire will attract other peoples attention? Are you bold or stupid, don''t you know the difference? " After being slapped, Robin''s fists were clenched, and he wished he could hit the man in front of him in a circle. Because he really doesn''t think there is anything wrong with him. This attack on Colonel Chatham was initiated by them. They have been hiding near the headquarters of the French occupation forces, and they have mastered the principle of darkness under the lights. did not attract the attention of the French occupying forces at all. Robin knew his chance had come when spotters noticed that Chatham had simply entered a nearby hotel. Without hesitation, he decided to launch an attack on the fly. The plan is also very simple and direct, and it is the result of making a plan when they were hiding nearby and constantly improving it. Different from what Fang Lang and Colonel Chatham expected, they did not receive any news of this attack in advance. Everything is ad hoc. It''s a pity that they didn''t have enough firepower to kill Colonel Chatham immediately. And the people in the hotel who were about to attack from behind were also frightened by Fang Lang''s guards and did not dare to attack. So the plan failed. But Stuttgart is their home court. Although the assassination failed, they still calmly shook off their pursuers. As for whether the ignition will attract the French occupation forces, he feels that there is no need to worry at all. In such cold weather, many people light fires to keep warm, and many homeless Germans also need to light fires to keep warm. He didn''t think he was wrong. Robin who was slapped was very angry. However, he is also very clear now that this is not the time to resist, after all, the other party has something he wants. So he decided to endure it, and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth. "Sorry, sir!" Leon couldn''t see Robin''s dissatisfaction. In the final analysis, the opponent and I are not of one mind. The opponent is an SS combat unit, and I am the Gestapo, belonging to the intelligence department. I also hope to expand the size of the rebel army, so I will take the initiative to find the other party, saying that I can provide military expenses to the other party. In fact, in Leon''s heart, he admired Robin for his fighting spirit in such a difficult environment. It''s a pity that now it seems that the opponent doesn''t understand the difference between fighting behind enemy lines and the original. There is no vigilance that a guerrilla behind enemy lines should have. On the contrary, I feel that this is on my own territory, so arrogant that I despise the enemy very much. This is very dangerous. If one is not good, the French will catch the tail and the whole army will be wiped out. Looking at the fighters around him who were watching him, Leon understood that he couldn''t be too harsh on these fighters who were still fighting. After all, these people are their own people, and it is impossible to treat them like enemies. What''s more, they did just launch a very deterrent attack and paid a certain amount of casualties. If you completely negate the opponent''s achievements, it may seriously hit the enthusiasm of the soldiers. (end of this chapter) Chapter 183: new president Chapter 183 New President Although Robin felt a little stupid, but everyone belonged to the same camp, Leon still decided not to make the relationship too rigid, and could only suppress his dissatisfaction. "Major Robin, I ordered you to be on standby in order to allow us to further strengthen our strength and deal a greater blow to the enemy after we spend our military expenses. If the French catch your tail in your attack this time, it will not only cause losses to your team. A more serious consequence may be to let the French discover the treasure left by the head of state. We all know that the present Confederates are prowling for these riches. Can you forgive yourself if, for your own sake, this wealth falls into the hands of the French? " No matter how much anger was in Major Robin''s heart, it was impossible for him to burst out at this moment. However, he would never let it go for being slapped by the Gestapo in front of his subordinates. At this moment in his heart, he has already begun to plan how to take revenge on Lieutenant Colonel Leon. However, he must learn to forbear before obtaining the wealth left by the head of state. "Sorry, sir!" Seeing Major Robin admitting his mistake again, Leon looked around at everyone and said: "Work hard these days, everyone, I have found something. However, we need to formulate a comprehensive transfer plan. So, please wait patiently for a few more days. Major Robin, the purpose of my appointment with you this time is to hope that you can get at least five trucks. And organize a team to protect this batch of wealth all the way, go to a safe place, and exchange it for the money and weapons we need. " Seeing that Leon finally got to the point, Robin was overjoyed. I swallowed my anger, isn''t it just to master this batch of wealth? At first, I thought that the other party would be alone and hand over their wealth little by little as military expenses. Unexpectedly, the other party would want to transfer this batch of wealth. This is a godsend opportunity! With a serious look on his face, he said: "Yes, sir, let me handle the matter of the vehicle. Don''t know where the safe place is? Shall we scout the route first? " Leon heard Robin''s words, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes. How could I tell you such a confidential matter? This kid doesn''t have any other ideas! As the Gestapo, he is very sensitive to such things. Take a closer look at the guy who still has a slap mark on his face, and he is looking at himself with a calm expression. Leon felt that he should be thinking too much. If this guy really wants to play with these riches, he shouldn''t have launched this attack. Because this obviously increases the risk of exposure. These guys who only know how to fight, their brains are full of muscles, and they may be worried about safety on the road. "No need, I have confirmed the safety of the route and destination. You just need to organize a reliable **** team. I will inform you of the specific departure time. " "Understood, sir. When the time comes, I will personally lead the **** to ensure nothing goes wrong. I dont know how many escorts you think it is more appropriate for us to arrange. " In fact, Robin''s purpose is very simple, just to see if he can find out how many things there are. Since this matter needs to be handed over to Robin, Leon didn''t think too much, and said directly: "You can control the number yourself, no more than 20 people, but you must ensure absolute reliability." "Okay, sir. Then I will prepare right away and wait for your notice at any time. Is the next assembly location still here? " When Leon heard this, he actually wanted to put the assembly point here again, what a heart it must be! "No, it can no longer be used here. The location of the next assembly, you wait for my notice. Thats it for today, Ill withdraw first. You clean up all the traces here. " After finishing speaking, he took Leo and put on his hat and scarf again. left the abandoned factory from another direction. What he didn''t notice was a white figure in a white camouflage suit coming from his direction. Observe from a distance in the direction they came towards the factory where they met. After seeing the two people coming out, he hid in the forest again. Robin and the others from the abandoned factory also came out after extinguishing the fire with snow. Follow the path and disappear into the dilapidated factory building. After they all walked away, behind a collapsed wall, a figure followed silently. Brazil, Rio de Janeiro Presidential Palace. "Mr. President, it is a great honor to receive your invitation to attend your inauguration ceremony." Fang Lang has been back to Brazil for two days, and stayed in Natal for two days, dealing with some backlogged official duties. I hurried to Rio de Janeiro, and didn''t even have time to visit the completed bank buildings and textile factories. The new president, Dutra, invited Fang Lang to meet at the presidential palace as soon as he heard that Fang Lang had come to Rio de Janeiro. Fang Lang naturally didn''t dare to neglect. "Haha Fang, we are friends. I am also very happy that you can appear at the most important moment in my life." Fang Lang came to the presidential palace in Brazil for the first time, although he participated in the attack on the presidential palace last time. But he himself did not participate in the operation of the presidential palace. When I came to the presidential palace today, I found that there were no traces of fighting. But Fang Lang also knew that this place should have been soaked in Japanese blood. When he walked into the presidential palace, Fang Lang not only didn''t feel a trace of fear, but felt that the things here were extraordinarily emerald green. The fragrance of the plants can be smelled in the air, which makes all the cells in his body a little excited. At this time, Dutra has taken off his military uniform and put on a suit, but his military temperament is still strong. The radiant President Dutra looked at the young colonel officer in front of him who was saluting himself, his eyes were full of appreciation. He took the initiative to shake hands with Fang Lang and then gave him a big hug. Fang Lang didn''t expect the new president to be so enthusiastic, so he quickly hugged Mr. President. "Fang, you did a great job. I heard General Letta from the General Logistics Department tell me that your artillery factory has invited American artillery experts to manage it. The factory has been built two days ago and is ready for trial production of artillery. This is really fast! " Fang Lang also knew this news, and he also instructed Mr. Bull of the artillery factory to imitate an American M2A1 105mm howitzer and give it to Mr. President as an inauguration gift. The president who was born as an army general has no doubts about his love for artillery. It would not be too appropriate to use the artillery produced by his own country as a gift for the inauguration ceremony. "Mr. President, thank you! The artillery factory was built with your support. Every success is inseparable from your selfless help. I believe that after you are elected president, our artillery factory will develop more rapidly. " "Haha Fang, I really like you more and more. I heard that you have gained a lot in the United States this time! What''s the situation with that radio and TV station? " After all, he is the president, and he really pays attention to the media industry! But its no wonder that traditional media such as newspapers are already like snakes and scorpions in the eyes of Brazilian politicians, and they cant wait to put them all in a cage. If it weren''t for President Vargas'' deregulation of news publications, Fang Lang wouldn''t have been able to enter the media industry. I discovered this TV station when I was inspecting artillery factories in the United States. There is a TV set in American hotel rooms, where you can watch news and TV programs. I just thought this is a good thing! How could we not have it in Brazil? So we hired a professional in the United States to help us build our own radio and television station in Brazil. " Fang Lang downplayed the political role of TV as much as possible. Although President Dutra is a political figure who is greatly influenced by American thought, power can easily change a person. He can''t bet on what President Dutra will think of his TV station. "Haha. Good job, I watched TV when I was studying in the United States, and I never thought of introducing TV to Brazil to enrich the spiritual life of the Brazilian people. Your idea is very good, I will fully support it, if there is anything that needs my help, just tell me directly. " Hearing that Mr. President offered to help Fang Lang, of course Fang Lang would not be polite. directly opened the mouth and said: "Mr. President, this matter really needs your help. The signal of the TV station needs to be transmitted on a specific signal channel just like the radio. Our TV station is still under construction, and I hope that Mr. President can open a few signal channels for us. " "Oh! Is this like this? This is a small problem, and I will arrange it later. However, the programs broadcast by this TV station should be strictly controlled, and some inappropriate reports should not appear, understand?" Dutra is indeed an excellent politician, and he can see at a glance the important role of radio and television in information dissemination. This sentence can be regarded as a clear point. The TV station should report some government affairs from a positive perspective. Fang Lang nodded repeatedly and said: "Mr. President, please rest assured! No matter in the past, present, or future, I am your soldier. I absolutely firmly support your leadership." This can be regarded as a show of loyalty to Dutra. President Dutra was very happy when he heard it, and nodded repeatedly: "Haha Fang, you are very good, I am sure you are right. There are so many consortiums in Brazil, the one I admire the most is your Fangyuan Group. Although you are a Chinese consortium, you have a very Brazilian national consciousness. Whether it is steel, shipbuilding or the military industry group, they have done very well, and I am very satisfied. However, you should also pay attention. There are already several old Brazilian families. They have a lot of opinions on the practice of your family''s grain and oil companies selling directly to Europe and the United States without going through them after processing. " Fang Lang was taken aback by what he said, he didn''t expect such a thing to happen. It seems that I have been deeply cultivating foreign markets and encroaching on the market share of domestic established families, making these big families dissatisfied! "Ah! Thank you, Mr. President, for your reminder. The subordinates really haven''t paid attention to this aspect. Please ask Mr. President to help clarify the specific situation. " Seeing Fang Lang''s attitude was very sincere, President Dutra did not go around the corner, but said directly: "We have many large landowners in the grain and soybean planting industry in Brazil. They jointly established a company called Nice Grain Import and Export Trade. Before the war broke out, Brazil''s export of grain and soybeans was controlled by them. Their influence is spread all over the major states of Brazil, and they are powerful. Politically, they are the biggest benefactors of the Social Democratic Party. During the war, due to the intervention of the Americans, an American food import and export company called Bunge extended its tentacles into Brazil. Therefore, they have been competing with this American company in the past two years, and they have not taken your grain import and export company seriously. However, during the recent period, the shipments of your grain and oil company have increased significantly, which has caused this company to attention. They may suppress your family business, so you have to be careful. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 184: big gift Chapter 184 Great gift Fang Lang really has never heard of the Nice Grain Import and Export Trading Company. But this American Bunge Fanglang is really too familiar. After all, how many people in the previous life were engaged in shipping have not come into contact with the world''s four major grain merchants who control 80% of the world''s grain lifeline? Bunge is rooted in South America. It is the largest grain exporter in Brazil and the largest oil crop processor in the world. It is a modern enterprise with a complete agricultural industry chain that has achieved diversification, integration and globalization. As the "oldest international grain merchant", although his origin is Amsterdam in the Netherlands, he moved his headquarters to New York, USA long ago during this period. The political background of this company in the United States should not be underestimated. Of course, Fang Lang believes that this is also related to the food strategy of the Yankees. Otherwise, why would three of the four major grain merchants be in the United States! People depend on food, and these companies control 80% of the world''s food supply. If one day the United States asks that country to run out of food, many countries will not even have a chance to resist. This is also the reason why COFCO of later generations will receive key support from the state, because no far-sighted national leader would be willing to have his countrys grain bags in the hands of foreigners. It seems that this nice company in Brazil should have been defeated by Bunge in the end, but since Fang Lang has come to Brazil, of course he hopes that he will have the opportunity to participate. It would be great if it could replace Bunge. "Is that so? Mr. President, I wonder if you can come forward and help me make an appointment with this Nice company person? We Chinese pay attention to making money in harmony when doing business. We are all Brazilians. There is no need at all. When foreign enemies invade, we will fight each other to the death, right? I prefer cooperation to combat. I believe that Mr. President does not want to see domestic companies fighting to the death, let outsiders take advantage of it! " President Dutra looked at Fang Lang in surprise, completely unexpected that the young naval colonel in front of him would be so non-aggressive. In the impression of President Dutra, young people are generally impulsive, That is what the Chinese call young and energetic, but Fang Lang''s performance was completely beyond Dutra''s expectations. "Fang, are you serious? These traditional noble-born guys are not so easy to talk to. If you show a little weakness, they will bite you and not let go. " Fang Lang felt that President Dutra was also full of hostility towards these old noble-born landlords. This made him understand why, later, the American Bunge Company won the victory, replacing Nice as the largest grain merchant in South America. It seems that the relationship between Mr. President and the Social Democratic Party that supports him is not harmonious! But Fang Lang understood after thinking about it. After all, the Social Democratic Party belongs to the conservative party, while Dutra is a pro-American democrat. It seems that President Dutra took the initiative to mention this matter to himself, not just to remind himself! Maybe I also want to let myself take the initiative to touch this Nice company! As for whether there is any deeper purpose, Fang Lang is not clear. But Fang Lang doesn''t want to make enemies everywhere in Brazil. Dutra''s president has only been in power for five years, and Vargas will be in power after five years. If he makes too many enemies by then, he will be targeted. It''s not that Fang Lang is timid and afraid of making enemies. If someone really wants to be an enemy of Fang Lang without knowing how to praise him, he doesn''t mind knocking him out of the dust. But now the Chinese forces have just begun to infiltrate Brazil. If you make enemies on all sides at this time, the Chinese will obviously be targeted. Fang Lang is not afraid of them. However, ordinary Chinese are obviously unable to resist. Since President Dutra obviously doesn''t want these big landlords to have a good time, Fang Lang certainly can''t continue to seek cooperation with President Dutra. If it is impossible to directly establish a cooperative relationship with these big landlords, Fang Lang must also establish contact with other forces in Brazil. As for how to establish contact, Fang Lang already had an idea in his mind. "Mr. President is right. We are soldiers, and we should really show our toughness. I know what to do." After listening to Fang Lang''s words, Dutra finally revealed a happy smile. "Haha Fang, you are right, we are soldiers and we should show our toughness. However, we must also pay attention to the methods and methods, and do not make any radical behaviors to avoid unnecessary confusion. " It seems that President Dutra has learned the necessary skills to be a president, and he wants to be a **** and set up a memorial archway. "Yes, Mr. President. Since Mr. President is about to take office, in order to express my congratulations, I also brought a big gift this time. I believe that Mr. President will be able to gain great prestige. " "Oh! Fang, tell me what kind of gift it is, so that I can gain great prestige?" Reputation is sometimes more important than interests for the president. So when Dutra heard that Fang Lang had a chance to improve his reputation, his eyes really started to light up. After all, everyone knows that Dutra''s coming to power is not glorious. He also urgently needs to make some achievements to gain people''s recognition. When I inspected military manufacturing in Germany this time, on behalf of Fangyuan Group, I reached a cooperation agreement with Mercedes-Benz and Porsche in Germany. We will establish a joint venture to build a complete automobile industry system in Brazil, which will include parts manufacturing to vehicle assembly. Once completed, it will be announced that we have a complete automobile manufacturing system in Brazil. Moreover, the automobile manufacturing capacity will reach the level of advanced countries in Europe and America. " Regardless of what the actual system is, reporting to Mr. President is of course a big boast. This can highlight the greatness of this project. After hearing Fang Lang''s words, President Dutra bounced directly from the sofa with a "swish". Looking at Fang Lang in disbelief, he said: "Fang, are you serious?" "Of course, Mr. President. I even signed the agreement." Hearing Fang Lang''s affirmative answer, President Dutra began to pace back and forth in the office unconsciously. From his flushed face, Fang Lang could tell that he was very excited. Fang Lang smiled slightly and did not continue talking, but waited for Mr. President to consume the news. After a long while, President Dutra said: "Fang, are you interested in serving in the Ministry of Commerce? How about I let you serve as a minister?" Obviously, President Dutra wants Fang Lang to continue to attract investment for himself. Unfortunately, this is not what Fang Lang wants. After shaking his head, Fang Lang said clearly: "Mr. President, I am a soldier. I like to lead troops to fight more than to do business." Hearing Fang Lang''s clear refusal, Dutra was not angry. Instead, I began to think about how to maximize the benefits of this matter. "Fang, where are you going to build the factory?" Fang Lang''s mouth turned up slightly, and he said hesitantly: "Mr. President, I haven''t thought it through yet. It depends on which cities have the best industrial base. And also look at the attitude of the local government towards these enterprises. " This has been made very clear, just to see where the government can come up with better conditions. What Fang Lang didn''t say is that the Aston Martin factory he bought in the UK has already begun to look for a suitable place in Brazil to build a factory. . But now, he wants to wait and see how much support Mr. President will give to build a factory in Brazil. If the support is strong enough, your own wholly-owned factory should also take this ride. "Fang, don''t worry, I will announce this good news to the state governments immediately, and I will definitely give these factories the best conditions for settlement." It''s not because of this small favor that you want to get rid of yourself! You, the dignified president, need to talk about this? Without going through you, if I go directly to various state governments to talk, I can easily get the best settlement conditions, okay! Fang Lang kept complaining in his heart. President Dutra continued to speak as if he didn''t see Fang Lang''s ugly face: "Fang, do you lack funds for such a large project?" Listening to President Dutra''s aggressive questioning, Fang Lang''s face became more gloomy. What do you mean, I am easy to bully? Its not enough to take the benefits for nothing, but I also want to come in and get a share. Suddenly, Fang Lang had a flash of inspiration, and he was blessed to the soul. Thinking of this, wouldn''t it just solve the problem of his shortage of capital chain? If you operate properly, you can not only own the shares of these companies without investing a penny yourself. You can even infiltrate your own influence into the original consortium forces in Brazil. At that time, I will have a huge network in Brazil! Of course, it is definitely not possible to send it directly to the pole. "In terms of funds, we have already raised funds through the family''s Brazilian Development Bank. That''s why we have the confidence to sign cooperation agreements with so many companies at the same time!" How can there be no shortage of funds? This is impossible, how can Fang Lang eat such a big piece of fat by himself! President Dutra feels as uncomfortable as a cat scratching. "Fang, I think it''s such a big deal! You should find some partners and work together to make the development more stable, right! Otherwise, some people may be jealous and set up obstacles for you. " Fang Lang didn''t seem to understand Mr. President''s hint at all. Also defending Mr. President''s interests everywhere: "This is my political project to gain prestige for Mr. President, and there are still people who dare to set up obstacles on it. Don''t worry, Mr. President, if someone dares to set up obstacles, I don''t need your order. I will send troops to clean him up. " This made President Dutra very anxious. Does this kid really understand or pretend to understand! Obviously, it is something that you can make a fortune with your own behind-the-scenes funder, if you eat all of it by yourself. At that time, the benefactors behind the scenes are still looking for trouble for themselves! "Cough, cough." President Dutra coughed twice before saying earnestly: "Fang, you have to understand that we in Brazil can''t count on what I say alone. Maybe your familys rise is still relatively short, and many things are still not well understood. Behind every political figure, there will be a lot of big capital supporting him. And of course I am no exception. Isnt your family one of the big capital behind me supporting me! Since you supported me to become president, of course I have to give you back. " Fang Lang got up quickly, and said with a look of injustice: "Mr. President, our family''s support for you is selfless. I never thought of getting anything in return from you!" (end of this chapter) Chapter 185: trade Chapter 185 Trading President Dutra looked at Fang Lang with an aggrieved face in front of him, a mouthful of old blood was suffocating in his throat, and he was almost suffocated to death. This is to remind myself that Fang Lang was not rewarded? I expanded your First Fleet with 2,000 Marines. But thinking about adding two thousand people to him, it seems to be a reward for his support for his superiority. His family was persuaded by himself to invest in the construction of a military industrial group last time, and also distributed part of the shares to other families and countries. Thinking of this, President Dutra said with a little embarrassment: "Fang, I understand, your selfless help to me. However, how can I not give back to my friends who have helped me? This time you once again gave me such a huge political achievement, it is impossible for me not to give your family the reward it deserves, right? " This is clearly an exchange of interests! Fang Lang hesitated when he heard President Dutra''s statement. Because, he doesn''t know what kind of return the other party will give him, or he himself doesn''t know what kind of return he should get from them. If you don''t want any benefits for yourself, it is definitely impossible. In this way, everyone will treat themselves as fools in the future, only knowing to take benefits from themselves, but not giving back to themselves. This is absolutely unacceptable to Fang Lang. Looking at President Dutra with a look of embarrassment, he said: "I understand, Mr. President, if this is the case, I am willing to give up some interests belonging to our family for your reputation. However, if your friends want to participate, they have to talk to me themselves, and I will only cooperate with them if they show enough sincerity. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, President Dutra was overjoyed. Of course, he couldn''t participate too much in this kind of thing. However, he was very moved by Fang Lang''s voluntary relinquishment of some of the benefits he had obtained in support of his actions. directly stated: "Fang, I am very grateful for your dedication. I have nothing to compensate you for your loss. But don''t worry! From now on, Nice Grain Import and Export Company will not be able to pose any threat to your grain and oil import and export business. My friends and I will stand firmly by your side. " Actually, Fang Lang didn''t make too many plans for the grain and oil processing enterprises he acquired. It is just that the grain and oil processed by its own factory will be exported directly to Europe and the United States, so as to get a ride on the Marshall Plan and make a small fortune. However, today he heard the president mention the American Bunge Company to him, which made him have to re-examine the value of his grain and oil company. Brazil was originally the largest grain exporter in the world. Now that I have the opportunity to expand the grain and oil company and compete with Bunge for the position of the top four grain merchants, I have no reason to just make a fuss! What''s more, once I can really become the largest grain processing and import and export enterprise in Brazil. Then all farmers in Brazil will have to feed themselves, what a huge political influence this will be! It turned out that the grain and oil processing company that he had never paid attention to had such huge development potential, which made Fang Lang have to face up to this company. However, now of course I can''t just let go, let President Dutra think that I can get rid of myself in this way. Besides, Mr. President just said that he would not let Nice Company threaten his grain and oil import and export business, not to help him defeat the opponent. Even just stating that he will be with his friends, on their side. I want you guys to stand with me? What''s the use of standing with me when the other party threatens you? Or just help me win the Nice Company a little bit more. "Mr. President, I actually don''t want to have conflicts with the Nice Grain Import and Export Company. If possible, I hope to sit down and have a good talk with the shareholders of the Nice Company." "Oh my god! Fang, you don''t want to recruit those peasants into the group, do you! Trust me, they are definitely not good business partners. " President Dutra obviously misunderstood Fang Lang''s meaning. If Nice Company is really planning to target Fang Lang''s grain and oil company, then Fang Lang is also going to talk to the other party first. If it is really impossible to negotiate, Fang Lang is about to go to war with them. But President Dutras misunderstanding can only show that he really cares about the introduction of the automobile industry this time. In this case, Fang Lang actually took the absolute initiative. Just when Fang Lang was thinking about how to continue to express that he didn''t care much about grain import and export companies, President Dutra said again: "Fang, do you want to rush to make a decision, maybe my friends will have a better solution." Fang Lang didn''t understand what President Dutra meant, but now he hasn''t figured out what benefits he should exchange. So, this matter needs to be considered slowly before a decision can be made. By the way, you can also let this news slowly ferment in the Brazilian capital market for a few days to see if there will be any wonderful effects. "Okay! Mr. President, then I will go back and wait for your good news." After finishing talking with Mr. President. Fang Lang was not in a hurry to go home, but made an appointment for dinner with General Leta of the General Logistics Department. After all, the future largest purchaser of his arms group is the one in front of him. He cannot be easily offended. "Fang, what do you mean, this time you found a firearms designer in Germany and are planning to return to China to build a small arms manufacturing factory?" "Yes, General Leta, but the scale of this factory will not be particularly large. Hope to get the support of General Leta. " "Why don''t you manage them together in the artillery factory? Isn''t it easier?" Fang Lang is not going to merge his light weapons factory and artillery factory together. After all, the artillery factory is not his own industry. The artillery factory was opened at the request of the president, and its political significance is greater than its commercial significance. This is Fang Lang''s means to deepen his connection with the military, and it cannot bring Fang Lang much economic benefit. After all, the artillery produced by the Brazilian army is the biggest consumer. Even if it can be sold to foreign countries, it needs to go through large-scale military purchases between governments. There is no way to make a lot of money with such a narrow sales channel. Light weapons are completely different, because in addition to being able to equip the army, they can also be sold to the civilian market in countries where guns are not allowed. For example, the civilian market of a large gun-consuming country like the United States is a very large market. As long as the firearms can pass the review of the U.S. government, if they are distinctive, high-quality and cheap, it will be easy to open the U.S. market. Not to mention the profit, the operating rate of the factory alone does not know how many blocks away the artillery factory is. So, Fang Lang said directly to General Leta: "Your Excellency, our artillery factory, I have obtained a complete artillery craft authorization from the United States. So production can start straight away. But my light weapons factory did not discuss any technical authorization, which requires us to start from scratch, It is still unknown whether the results of research and use can be obtained. If I merge him into the artillery factory, it may cause dissatisfaction among other shareholders. Because the initial research investment may be huge. " It''s a pity that although General Leta doesn''t have much contact with Fang Lang, he is a person who knows Fang Lang very well. He doesn''t believe that Fang Lang will make such a profitless investment. His first reaction was that the prospect of this business should be very good, otherwise Fang Lang wouldn''t say so. "Since research requires a lot of capital investment, the risk is also high. Shouldn''t you be looking for a partner to share the investment risk? If you are worried about high risks, I can help you find several suitable investment partners. how? " How does Fang Lang answer these words? What you said is so reasonable, I don''t even know how to refute you! "Oh! If Your Excellency the General wants to share the risk with me, I welcome it very much." As a result, General Leta began to hold back, and waved his hands again and again: "Fang, my identity is definitely not suitable for direct business. If you need it, I can introduce you to some suitable investors." In fact, officials or soldiers are not completely forbidden to do business in Brazil, as long as you dont get caught using your position to seek benefits for your company. Besides, it won''t be a big problem if someone reports it. Of course, given the climate of corruption in Brazil, this regulation is basically useless. Doesnt the big domestic companies and big capitals have a close relationship with government officials? Even the president is often impeached because of economic problems, and you expect the officials below to abide by this rule. Fang Lang shook his head and said: "Your Excellency, what does this matter! You cant do business directly, you can use the name of your family! If you are worried about using the name of your family members, you can directly use a fake identity to participate, and I will approve your investment as a major shareholder! isn''t it? But first let me say that your investment must be real money. We really need to invest a lot of money in the research and development of this project. " Think about it, if General Leta can really invest in this project, Fang Lang will not lose money. After all, Fang Lang no longer has to worry about the sales of light weapons produced by the company. And there is another very important point, if General Leta really adopts Fang Lang''s method and participates in the investment of this project. It means that the relationship between Fang Lang and General Leta will enter a new stage. This is what Fang Lang is happy to see. After listening to Fang Lang''s words, General Leta was taken aback. At this time, shouldn''t you take the initiative to offer 20% of the shares to yourself? Even have to spend real money to invest. This made General Leta a little embarrassed. However, thinking about it made him feel relieved, after all, Fang Lang''s status was not comparable to that of ordinary businessmen who asked him. The other person''s identity is the active captain of the Brazilian Navy, the real power in the Brazilian army. Although Fang Lang conveyed benefits to himself by buying paintings last time, everyone knew that it was Fang Lang''s compensation for his failure to purchase aircraft through the General Logistics Department. The procurement of equipment for the Brazilian army is not something that General Letta can settle with one word, and Fang Lang doesn''t need to beg General Letta too much. With Fang Lang''s status in the Brazilian army, it will not be too difficult to sell weapons produced by his factory in Brazil to the Brazilian army. Of course, with the participation of General Letta, Fang Lang''s active promotion can be turned into the military''s active purchase. This is an essential difference. (end of this chapter) Chapter 186: move on hearing the wind Chapter 186 Hearing the wind and moving General Leta thought for a long time, and finally said hesitantly: "Fang, this is a big matter, I need to think about it. Can I give you an answer within three days? " Fang Lang shrugged after hearing this and said indifferently: "Of course, just let me know after you think about it. The purpose of my coming this time is not to get you to invest in my project. I want to ask, what is the result of the armored division''s equipment procurement? " General Leta heard Fang Lang''s question, looked at Fang Lang with admiration and said: "Fang, I didn''t expect that the Shata company you introduced would be so powerful. It turned out that you told me that the backstage of this company is the General Logistics Department of the US military. I still don''t believe it. Now it seems that it is not just the background. Several representatives who came to Brazil to negotiate this time were officers from the US General Logistics Department. General Morais of the former expeditionary force came forward to receive them in person. Mr. President even hosted a banquet for them. Although their quotations are slightly higher, I guess I will choose them in the end. " Regarding General Leta''s emotion, Fang Lang just smiled and said nothing. Not to let the other party know that he is the major shareholder of this company. Now it is enough to let the other party know that he has a close relationship with a company with such a huge background. After all, this is too much! "Haha. It''s good to be able to help your Excellency the General. I''m still worried that the equipment provided by this company won''t satisfy the army brothers!" In Fang Lang''s mind, it doesn''t really matter whether the army''s equipment is advanced, and they have no chance to use it anyway. But it would be great if Shata Company could sign a larger arms order with the Brazilian military. After all, this is my own company. If someone sends money to my company, the more the better! "Of course the brothers in the army will not have any dissatisfaction, but the brothers in the navy are beginning to have opinions." Fang Lang was taken aback by what he said. Picked up the wine bottle and took a sip: "Oh! I don''t know what the navy brothers are not satisfied with?" "Hey, some navy brothers also want to buy a few advanced warships! After all, except for your First Fleet which is using new-style warships, the other navy brothers are still using old-fashioned warships." This is great! Isn''t this another business? Fang Lang doesn''t mind if other brothers in the navy have more advanced equipment than him, after all, no matter how advanced they are, they are no match for aircraft. "Oh! Any ideas from the Admiralty?" "What the Admiralty wants most now is the aircraft carrier. They even asked me to inquire about the price from Shata Company." Fang Lang knew that the Ministry of the Navy wanted to own an aircraft carrier, and he wanted to own an aircraft carrier very much. But, why didn''t you tell him about this matter? Now the only Brazilian Navy capable of using an aircraft carrier is Fang Lang! After all, the First Fleet was built on the shelf of an aircraft carrier. "Now the Department of Defense agrees to allocate funds to purchase?" "Not yet, because the Navy is looking at the Essex-class aircraft carrier, and Shata has not yet answered whether the United States agrees to sell it. However, this kind of thing is not a simple voice. It requires Mr. President to come forward to talk with the President of the United States. Certainly not so soon. " This is a good thing. Fang Lang is not worried that the aircraft carrier will fall into the hands of others if he buys it. If anyone dares to attack his aircraft carrier, he can make the sand tower stuck and unable to deliver. Moreover, based on his relationship with the president, if the aircraft carrier is not his fleet, he can block the president''s door. "Okay! It seems that I have to work hard. Otherwise, after I can buy an aircraft carrier, the aircraft carrier has nothing to do with me." "Haha Fang, believe me, no matter how hard you try, the aircraft carrier can''t escape your palm." General Leta laughed loudly after hearing Fang Lang''s words. "Huh? Why?" "Because General Morais and General Crook both mean that only you are competent to command the aircraft carrier fleet. After all you are the only naval commander who has ever fought in a carrier battle group. " "Haha. It seems that the two generals have good vision!" General Leta also had to admire the relationship within the army of the young major officer in front of him. General Morais is a high-ranking general, and his opinions have a decisive influence in the army. Since he supports Fang Lang as the command of the first aircraft carrier, it is basically settled. Actually, Fang Lang was a little surprised in his heart, and he didn''t quite understand why General Morais was so optimistic about himself. But, who cares! Maybe this is love? Communication with General Letta can indeed obtain some latest trends within the army, which made Fang Lang gain a lot today. The two of them exchanged toasts for a while, and they drank to the fullest. While Fang Lang and General Letta were drinking vigorously, the circle of big capitalists in Brazil had begun to spread that Fangyuan Group had introduced a complete automobile industry system from Germany. Preparing to build a joint venture factory in China, Mr. President personally persuaded the Fangyuan Group and agreed to take part of the shares for everyone to participate. For a while, all powerful capital became active. In the mansion area in the center of Rio de Janeiro, several gentlemen in suits and leather shoes were sitting around an elderly white man with gray hair. "Sir, did Fang Lang really introduce a complete automobile industry system from Germany?" A young white man in a suit and leather shoes and gold-rimmed glasses asked the elderly man in the main seat with an expression of disbelief. "Mr. Smart, this is what the President personally sent a message to me. He has seen the cooperation agreement with his own eyes. The project is ready to start. Do you think it''s true or false? " "But such a good project, why is the Fang family willing to share it with everyone?" "When did I say that the Fang family is going to share this cake." People around looked at this young man like a fool. Several people even shook their heads silently, and kept feeling in their hearts. It seems that the Smart family is really in decline, and even let a young man come to such an important party. Speaking and doing things so impatiently, how can it be a big deal? This young man named Smart owns the largest rubber plantation in Brazil. During World War II, his family developed rapidly because of the importance of rubber raw materials. It''s a pity that his father passed away suddenly due to an accident when the family business was developing at its best. The huge family business has been inherited from the young man in front of him. This young man named Fatih Smart is a rookie who has just graduated from school and has no experience in shopping malls. However, his father has already laid a good foundation for the family. Taking the opportunity of doing rubber business with Americans, he met many Brazilian businessmen who are closely related to Americans. And integrated into this group, there are many politicians in this group, most of them are members of the National League. This group is naturally the funder behind the National League. Because of the importance of the rubber business, his father''s status in this group is not low. But after his father''s death, the edgy young man was unflattering when he entered the group on behalf of his family. Smart also knows that he is indeed a little frizzy, and he is slowly learning to mature. However, as a Brazilian who has studied in the United States for two years, he is very aware of the importance of industry and the profits of industrial products. Before this meeting, he already knew about the rubber deep processing industry. Different rubber products require different rubber processing techniques, and these techniques are exactly what he can''t ask for. So, when he heard that a complete automobile industry system was introduced here today, he was of course very shocked. You must know that there are many rubber products on the car, such as tires, rubber rings, and hoses. He knew where his family''s advantageous industries were, so he didn''t want to enter a car factory, but instead set his sights firmly on rubber products. This is also the reason why he couldn''t hold back the excitement in his heart and asked impatiently. He didn''t understand why Fang Lang was willing to share such a profitable business. "Mr. Francois, young people are ignorant, so don''t mind too much. Now that we have all come here, we must believe in the authenticity of this project." A middle-aged Caucasian man with a big beard and a very ferocious appearance stepped forward to make a rescue. People around also catered to her. They don''t want Smart''s edginess to jeopardize their chances of getting a big deal. The gray-haired elderly white man is apparently the leader of the group, Reni Fran?ois. Hearing everyone''s persuasion, he didn''t continue to hold it. Instead, he picked up the coffee and took a sip before saying: Originally, this project was signed by Fangyuan Group with more than 40 auto parts companies in Germany. This was originally Fangyuan Group''s own project. However, after Mr. President heard about it, he took the initiative to chat with Mr. Fang. I hope Fangyuan Group can take this project out and bring everyone together to make a fortune. " Now it''s not just Smart who has doubts, everyone is starting to wonder. Why should the Fang family bring you to make a fortune with the project that they finally negotiated? Reni Francois obviously also saw the doubts of everyone, smiled and said: "As I said just now, the Fang family did not let other people participate in this project. However, the president''s face cannot be denied. So, Mr. Fang means that if you really want to participate in this project, you need to bring your own sincerity and talk to the Fang family. As for whether they can impress the Fang family, it depends on everyone''s ability. " As soon as these words were said, the people below immediately began to discuss. Smart''s heart has begun to become active. If he just joined the tire factory, what kind of sincerity should he show to impress the Fang family? Francois saw that everyone was discussing, obviously they all had their own ideas. He was not in a hurry, and slowly picked up a cup of coffee and took a sip. After putting down the cup, he said "cough, cough." twice, reminding everyone that he still has something to say. After a lot of difficulty, the voices of everyone''s discussions gradually quieted down. Francois continued unhurriedly: "Mr. President, let me remind you that the grain and oil export enterprises of Fangyuan Group may be suppressed by Nice grain import and export enterprises. Mr. President has stated that in the competition between the two companies, he will stand on the side of Fangyuan Group. In exchange for the Fang family agreeing to give everyone the opportunity to participate in this project. I know that some of you sitting here are also one of the shareholders of Nice Group. I hope you can think about whether you want to stand with us. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 187: nice company Chapter 187 Nice Company Francois, an old man, is indeed a man of maturity. In order to be able to participate in this project, he directly put several shareholders of Nice Company on the table. He knows that everyone knows the power of industry and the profit of industry, and there should be no one here who does not want to participate in this project. Now if you want to participate in the project, you have to choose between Nice Company and Fangyuan Group. He himself does not own shares in Nice Company. So don''t think about it, he must be on the side of Fangyuan Group. Then there are still several families that own the shares of the Nice Group, which obviously become an obstacle for them to join. At this meeting today, he directly exposed this matter. If these families are not on their side, they will be everyone''s enemy. The old guy''s trick is not so old. As soon as the old man''s voice fell, the expressions of the four participants in the meeting changed. Everyone''s eyes are focused on a few people. This made several people instantly feel like they were on their backs, and their faces became very ugly. After a long while, there was only one person, and said brightly: "This. Please rest assured, I will definitely stand with you. As for the matter that the Nice Group will suppress the Fangyuan Group''s grain import and export business, this is the opinion of the company''s management. I can help mediate, and I will make the company give up this untimely idea as soon as possible. " The other three also quickly agreed. For fear of provoking public anger. Smart said again at this time: "If Mr. Fang exchanged the shares of Nice Company for the shares of the new project, would Mr. Fang agree?" As soon as he said this, he regretted it. How could such a thing be said directly? I should operate silently and privately! Since Nice Company and Fangyuan Group are in a competitive relationship, using the competitor''s shares as sincerity, and exchanging shares from the other party will definitely make the other party accept it! After all, this is equivalent to handing over the life of the other party to him! The eyes of the people around them brightened when they heard Smart''s words. Yup! Why didn''t I think of this method! The four people who were still stared at by everyone just now have mixed feelings. They understand that what Smart said makes sense, and they own the shares of Nice Company. Then as long as they are willing, they can use this method to participate in this project of Fangyuan Group first. But they are part of Nice Company after all. Once this method is adopted, it means that the majority shareholder of Nice Company will soon change hands. In any case, it is also one of their own industries. Of course they are not willing to let them give up like this. But soon they were relieved. After all, Fran?ois has already said just now that Mr. President has decided to side with the Fangyuan Group. Even if they resist, it will be futile. This is also good. "Crisis crisis" is often accompanied by opportunities when there is danger. Isn''t this an opportunity? Owning the shares of Nice Company, can''t you take the lead in negotiating with Fangyuan Group and win the best quality project? Soon, someone took the initiative to speak up and said: "Brother, you see that the future of Nice Company is bleak! How about you sell the shares to me! How about I buy it at a premium?" "Yeah! Brother, I paid a high price to buy it." "Do you think I''m stupid?" Running over to ask them to collect stocks at this time is a bit insulting to people''s IQ. Angrily, the four people who had shares of Nice Company in their hands wished they could slap them across the face. Although the others did not speak, they have already begun to figure out where to buy the shares of Nice Company. Soon someone stood up and said: "Mr. Francois, brothers, my wife was about to give birth when I went out to get it. Everyone continues to hold meetings here, I will go to see how my wife is doing, and I will bid farewell to you! " One person started, and immediately someone continued: "Oops! My old man fell this morning. I have to go to the hospital to see him, but my younger brother left first. Have time to invite everyone to dinner. " Soon, the people in the room found various reasons and left. In fact, everyone knew very well what was going on. After watching everyone leave, the old man Fran?ois no longer held back, picked up the phone next to him and dialed out. "Brother! I heard that you own 2% of Nice Company''s shares, right?" "How about transferring it to me? A 10% premium. You won''t be at a disadvantage." "What''s the matter? It''s okay! I just want to see if there is a chance to get involved in the grain import and export business." "Give me one percent? That''s fine. Where are you, I''ll come and find you to sign the agreement." For a while, the share price of Nice Company began to soar. Fortunately, Nice Company is not a listed company. The stock is only transferred privately. If it is traded in the secondary market, it is estimated that it will directly soar to a sky-high price. Some shareholders of Nice Company are also inexplicable, and the shares of Nice Company have become fragrant overnight. Receive more than a dozen quotation calls in one day. But there is no impenetrable wall in the world, and the reason why everyone bought the shares of Nice Company soon became known. This **** off the major shareholders of Nice Company. You are rushing to take my shares in Nice Company to curry favor with my opponents! Is it tolerable or unbearable, instead of taking advantage of you, it is better to let me do it myself. The next day, after Fang Lang got up, the assistant team came to report that it was rumored that the shares of Nice Company could be exchanged with Fangyuan Group for shares in the automobile industry. Everyone is snapping up the shares of Nice Company like crazy. Now, nearly half of the shareholders of Nice Company have changed. And people keep calling, saying that they have shares in Nice Company, hoping to obtain the qualification to participate in the automobile industry. This made Fang Lang dumbfounded. He didn''t expect an automobile industry to be so attractive. But this can be considered unintentional. Soon, Fang Lang asked people to organize a bidding conference. All companies that own shares of Nice Company can exchange shares of Nice Company for shares of equivalent value in various supporting companies. Of course, this value is calculated according to the stock price valuation of Nice Company before the hype. The shares of the auto parts company are calculated by Fang Lang based on the size of the funds he plans to invest. Fang Lang retains a minimum of 30% of the shares in each auto parts company, and he retains an absolute controlling stake of 51% in the two car brands of Mercedes-Benz and Porsche. It is certainly not enough to exchange the shares of one Nice company for the shares of more than 40 auto parts supporting companies. Therefore, each family that uses shares of the Nice company for share exchange also has the right to purchase the tradable shares released by the company in cash. The final result is that Fang Lang only signed a joint venture agreement with a German company, and he owns 30% of the shares of various supporting companies without spending a penny at all. and 51% of the shares of the two OEMs. The funds required for the construction of the factory have been raised by various participating families in Brazil. Fang Lang can be regarded as experiencing the feeling of a white wolf with empty gloves. The most important thing is that Nice Company, which originally stated that it would suppress the grain import and export enterprises of Yuanyuan Group, has completely changed hands. Fangyuan Group now owns 75% of the shares of this company called Nice Grain and Oil Import and Export Company. became the absolute major shareholder. For this reason, Fang Lang directly ordered the direct integration of the grain and oil company under the Fangyuan Group into the Nice Grain and Oil Import and Export Enterprise. As for why the Nice Grain and Oil Import and Export Company was not integrated into Fangyuan Grain and Oil, it was to dilute the Chinese-funded background of this company. At the same time, in response to the erosion of the Brazilian grain and oil market by the American Bunge Company, Fang Lang directly ordered Nice Company to start a large-scale integration of domestic grain and oil processing plants. Optimize and unify the production process, and use a unified grain and oil trademark brand throughout the country. At the same time, the fertilizer plant and pesticide plant located in Rio Grande do Sul were integrated into Nice Corporation. Through a series of means, Fangyuan Group''s shareholding in Nice Company has expanded from the original 75% to 85%. Because Nice Company is a non-listed company and its shareholding information does not need to be disclosed to the market, everyone does not know that this old Brazilian grain and oil company has unknowingly become a subsidiary of Fangyuan Group. The most important thing is that Fang Lang wanted to learn from the world''s four major grain merchants, and ordered the state branches in Brazil to start signing agreements with farmers in each state. Nice Company provides chemical fertilizers, pesticides and high-quality grain, and each farm is responsible for planting. After all the grain is harvested, it is directly purchased by Nice Company at an agreed price. In this way, each farmer greatly reduces the initial capital investment, and only needs to plant according to the grains provided by Nice Company. There is no need to worry about the crops being planted, or the price is not good. Of course, this also directly led to various farmers becoming laborers for Nice Company. Even Fang Lang has begun to prepare business for the later aircraft company. In the future, Nice Company will directly set up a dedicated fleet to be responsible for spraying pesticides on various large farms. Farmers dont even have to be responsible for applying pesticides themselves. Nices use of aircraft to spray pesticides is less costly and more efficient. It''s just killing multiple birds with one stone. This is the successful business strategy of the world''s four major grain merchants. Once this plan was announced, it immediately caused an uproar in Nice Company. No one thought that agricultural production could still be carried out like this. This caused an uproar in the management of Nice Company, but also admiration. Everyone is secretly glad that we joined this company. If you compete with such a company, you basically have no chance of winning. Because this company almost contracted the entire process of grain from sowing to harvesting and processing. Farmers almost only need to lie on the land and wait for the money to be collected. Some farmers stated more simply that they would lease the farm to Nice Company, and Nice Company could organize its own staff to take care of all aspects of food production. In just over two months, the new Nice company controlled almost 70% of the farms in Brazil through this method. When Bunge reacted, they found that the whole of Brazil had no soil for their survival. In order to meet Brazil''s demand for fertilizers and pesticides, Nice Company began to rapidly expand its chemical fertilizer and pesticide factories in Brazil through construction and mergers. For this reason, Nice Company once again ordered large-scale equipment for the production of chemical fertilizers and pesticides from Cole Company in the United States through Global Trading Company. Let Mr. Richard Cole of Cole Company directly say that it was not a loss to help Fang Lang get the penicillin production line. Even his son Charlie Cole said he made a lot of money. Of course, Fang Lang will not miss this opportunity to expand the scale of the penicillin production line. One year later, the Nice Group officially became the largest grain merchant in South America, and established a specialized fertilizer, pesticide and grain research institute in Sao Paulo, and hired more than 300 best biologists and chemists from all over the world to conduct research here. Research. In the second year, the Nice Group began to infiltrate into neighboring countries. With Brazil''s successful experience, the Nice Group quickly controlled the grain and oil production in Argentina. After controlling grain and oil, the Nice Group began to enter the sugar, alcohol and beef and mutton markets. Ten years later, Nice Group officially became one of the largest grain merchants in the world. Lets not talk about the specific amount of money that can be earned, but the influence on farmers across the country is unrivaled. This also made it necessary for various key officials of the government to obtain the support of the Nice Company if they wanted to obtain votes from farmers. Because Nice Company controls the jobs of farmers all over Brazil. Of course, the influence of Fangyuan Group in Brazil''s political arena has naturally become decisive. (end of this chapter) Chapter 188: **Treasure Chapter 188 Hidden Treasure When Fang Lang returned to China to attend the inauguration ceremony of President Dutra, Mayor Jonas, who was far away in Germany, had already organized the first batch of technical talents to go to Brazil to establish a joint venture with the help of various companies. On average, each company has more than ten people in the early stage, and more than 40 companies together have more than 600 people. In order to allow these people to go to Brazil quickly, Fang Lang purchased fifteen C46 transport aircraft through the American Shata Company. Of course, these transport planes are not just for transporting these technicians. After transporting the technicians, these planes will become the first batch of modified planes of Fanglang Aircraft Manufacturing Factory. After all, these planes are military transport planes. Compared with civil aviation airliners, they are too simple and have little comfort. But for these German technicians, being able to leave Germany at this time is like escaping from the cage. Who is qualified to pick whether the transportation is comfortable? Because Fang Lang didn''t have enough pilots. Therefore, the pilots of these planes were all pilots hired by Shata Company from the US Air Force for Fang Lang. When the planes landed at Stuttgart Airport, they visibly startled the soldiers of the French occupying forces. Your mother, what is the origin of this Brazilian, who can directly mobilize US Air Force planes and pilots to transport personnel for his private factory. Especially the lieutenant officer who wanted to examine Fang Lang at the airport was a little at a loss. It cannot be blamed for his timidity, the world is changing too fast. At this time, the French Prime Minister de Gaulle had resigned. As for why de Gaulle resigned, the reasons are more complicated. One is to advocate the restoration of French independence and the dignity of the French nation. However, after the war, under the influence of the United States and the United Kingdom, he cared more about the ownership of overseas colonies, thus losing his consistent independent foreign policy, which aroused public dissatisfaction. Second, the idea of ??the government managing the parliament fell through. According to de Gaulle''s vision, France implements a presidential system, the president is directly voted by the people, and the president forms a parliament to fully express the will of the people. But the Constituent Committee abolished the power of the French president and stipulated that the president should be elected by the parliament, and the government only obeys the parliament. Thirdly, various political forces have relapsed and intrigue with each other. Some political parties opposing him are expanding day by day, and the conflict between de Gaulle and the parliament is becoming more and more intense. His referendum proposal was opposed by various political parties, and de Gaulle, who had never yielded, announced his resignation. De Gaulle''s resignation means that France''s foreign policy towards the United States has changed. De Gaulle has always been very aware of the United States'' ill intentions towards France, so he has been trying to avoid the United States'' control of France. However, other political forces have different ideas from him. They hope that with the help of the United States, the economy can recover quickly, and they are not willing to confront the powerful United States. Therefore, it is inevitable for de Gaulle to be abandoned. Of course, thirteen years later, France suffered from severe inflation, unbalanced budget expenditure, and extremely severe economic situation; as well as the instability of the cabinet and the independence of Algeria, the French regime faced a serious crisis. Politicians and people from all walks of life hope that de Gaulle will come back and save the country from the fire. Under people''s expectations, de Gaulle returned to power. Of course, after returning to power this time, de Gaulle began to carry out drastic reforms in France. First, support the independence of the original colonies. After the end of World War II, there was an upsurge of independence among colonial countries, and Algeria was no exception, but it was suppressed by France, which caused dissatisfaction around the world. The first step de Gaulle came to power was to recognize Algeria''s independence and sign a friendly agreement. Secondly, insist on independent diplomacy and not be a "victim" of the Cold War. In order to reduce the influence of the United States and the United Kingdom, de Gaulle actively joined the European Economic Community, implemented financial reforms, issued new francs, and eliminated tariff barriers, making French products face the European competitive market and stimulating economic growth; Again, strongly advocated the continuation of nuclear weapons research and development, increased international discourse power, and rejected the control and surveillance of the United States, and gradually withdrew from the North Atlantic Treaty Organization. At the same time, he rejected Britain''s entry into the European Community and advocated the establishment of a European Europe, in order to get rid of the bipolar antagonism formed during the Cold War and improve France''s status. Finally, de Gaulle proposed the direct election of the President of the Republic by universal suffrage. Although the proposal was strongly opposed by parliament and politicians, he still has the right to dissolve parliament under the constitution. In the end, the French passed the proposal with a 62.2% majority. It is precisely because of Charles de Gaulle that France has today''s international status, and all French people should be grateful to him. It is a pity that his reforms touched the interests of too many people. Finally, in 1968, because the National Assembly did not support his reforms, de Gaulle dissolved the parliament, and then established a new parliament through elections. De Gaulle thought that the new parliament would agree to his reform plan, but the new parliament still failed to pass De Gaulle''s reform plan. This means that de Gaulle cannot continue to transform France according to his own ideas. In this situation, de Gaulle could only resign voluntarily again. It''s not that De Gaulle''s reform plan is bad, on the contrary, De Gaulle''s reform plan is too good, and he considers the people of the whole of France. It is a pity that such a policy will destroy the cake of the original vested interests. And this vested interest class is precisely the French elite, and those who can enter the parliament through elections are of course the French elite. It is simply wishful thinking to pass a reform plan that harms their interests in the French Parliament composed of vested interests. Therefore, no matter how many times parliament is dissolved and a new parliament is re-elected, it will be doomed to futility. If this situation is compared with ancient China, it is probably the same as Yongzheng, who is willing to strengthen the national power and benefit the common people through policies such as dividing the land into the mu, but seriously harming the interests of the literati. He is destined to be scolded as the king of Jie and Zhou. Of course, this is a stretch. With the resignation of French Prime Minister de Gaulle, France''s foreign policy has undergone great changes, from the original independence to a small follower of the Americans. As a follower, the grassroots soldiers in France will of course begin to change their attitudes towards the Americans. Therefore, when Mr. Lieutenant saw a group of American soldiers walking out of the airport under the guidance of the Brazilians like tourists, it took him a long time to react and report the situation here to the chief. When the news reached Colonel Chatham''s ears, he didn''t have any worries. Instead, he let out a long sigh of relief. After all, if the personnel were picked up by Americans, even if his superiors troubled him, he would not Need to worry. There is a kind of trouble for you to find Americans! Come over and ask me what I mean. Therefore, the first batch of professional and technical personnel went to Brazil without any difficulty. Qi Qingshan finally arranged for the first batch of professional and technical personnel to go to Brazil, and received a surprising piece of information. "Sir, the people who have been following Leo and Paul have found something interesting and need to report it to you." A Marine Corps platoon leader reported to Qi Qingshan in a low voice. Recalling Fang Lang''s explanation, Qi Qingshan was not surprised. He waved his hand to signal the other party to sit down before saying: "Tell me and see if it is consistent with what the boss guessed." "Sir, yesterday our people discovered that these two people had brought tools with them in the middle of the night and dug up an abandoned mine in the suburbs. As for what was in the mine, the soldiers were afraid of being discovered by the other party, so they did not dare to investigate further. But when the two left, the hole was backfilled. And when they left, the load in their backpacks increased significantly. The soldiers suspected that there was something important hidden in this mine. " After hearing this, Qi Qingshan nodded and said: "I understand, you add two more people to stare at the abandoned mine. These two people will definitely take action recently, let brothers be careful, don''t be discovered by them. I will report to the boss immediately. " "Sir, don''t worry! Our people follow from afar, and it is not so easy for them to find out. Another situation is that when the French occupation army was attacked, we also found that the identities of the two people in the hotel lobby have been confirmed, and they are indeed members of the rebel army. Some time ago, our people followed them and found that they were gathered in an abandoned factory building, and met the one named Leo and Paul. We have reason to believe that they must be a group. If there is any action, they have a lot of people. Do we need to inform the French? " "No, don''t notify the French, wait for us to investigate. As for whether to notify the French, or when to notify the French, it is up to the boss to decide. We just need to monitor the whereabouts of these people according to the boss''s order, and don''t let them escape our control. " Although Fang Lang didn''t tell Qi Qingshan clearly, Qi Qingshan had some vague guesses about Fang Lang''s purpose. Moreover, Qi Qingshan now has his own judgment on the purpose of Leo and Paul. Now that these two people have entered Fang Lang''s sight, it is doomed that they cannot escape Fang Lang''s palm. He didn''t want to act on his own, which affected Fang Lang''s plan. So, he will strictly follow Fang Lang''s request to only monitor and not intervene. Wait for the next command. "Yes, sir." Since the chief has made a decision, the platoon leader will naturally not express any objections. When this telegram was sent to Fang Lang, Fang Lang was organizing the introduced automobile industry system, the share distribution meeting! Seeing this telegram, Fang Lang checked the time again. Tomorrow is the inauguration ceremony of President Dutra. It seems that after attending the inauguration ceremony, it is time to prepare to go to Germany again. He believes that the time for these German rebels to dig up the treasure should be very near. I just dont know how they plan to operate. Its a pity that these people dont have their own undercover agents, and they dont have the ability to place undercover agents among a group of Germans. They can only determine the actions of these people by observing from a distance. What Fang Lang couldn''t understand was why this Gestapo named Paul would cooperate with the rebels who attacked Colonel Chatham. I have clues to the hidden treasure, shouldn''t I secretly dig it alone? Bringing the guy named Leo had already surprised Fang Lang very much. Looking at the situation now, not only Leo was going to be brought along, but these rebels might also be brought along. This kind of coquettish operation is really difficult for Fang Lang to understand. They are no longer the same regular army as Fang Lang and the others. They are just a group of losers who may die at any time, and there is no discipline or honor to restrain them. Such a team is actually no different from a mob. (end of this chapter) Chapter 189: ally Chapter 189 Allies Fang Lang looked at this information and fell into deep thought. Since this is a group of rabble, if Paul still wants to cooperate with them, isn''t he afraid that they will be blinded by money and cause internal strife? Or, he was already ready to let them fight among themselves. If there is internal strife, how can he ensure his own safety? Or, how to ensure that the wealth will eventually fall into his own pocket? Unfortunately, Fang Lang is not Paul, or Leon. He didn''t know exactly what this guy was thinking, but no matter what he thought, he definitely wanted to take out this batch of treasures. Just don''t know what they''re going to do with the wealth. After thinking about it for a long time, I didn''t come up with anything. Why, Fang Lang, just don''t think too much. Put down the information in hand, and want to deal with the matter in front of me before talking. In the early morning of the next day, the golden sun pierced the dark clouds in the sky, as if heralding that freedom and democracy had finally defeated dictatorship. The inauguration ceremony of Brazil''s new president was held in the auditorium of the Congress. The streets of Rio de Janeiro have been cleaned long ago, and military police are on duty at every intersection on the street. The whole atmosphere is very serious and tense. Fang Lang did not go to the Congressional Auditorium alone to attend the inauguration of the new president, but needed to go to the Ministry of National Defense Building to meet the senior military generals and go together. There are many old acquaintances of Fang Lang here, for example, the new Minister of Defense, General Morais, the Chief of Naval Staff, General Crook, and General Letta of the Logistics Department, all meet here. Fang Lang took the initiative to greet everyone one by one, which surprised some military generals who had never seen Fang Lang. This young naval colonel was very familiar with these big men in the military. After much difficulty, after Fang Lang finished communicating with several military leaders. Colonel Tichi from the Rio de Janeiro Naval Base stepped forward, grabbed Fang Lang and said: "Fang, I didn''t expect you to be so familiar with several generals. No wonder you can grow from a navy second lieutenant to a navy captain so quickly." Hearing the strong taste of sour vinegar in Colonel Teach''s words, Fang Lang couldn''t understand Colonel Teach''s thoughts. But he and Colonel Teach are indeed very good friends, so they don''t mind these things. Instead, he smiled and said: "What do you mean, my position was promoted by relying on military merits, what? Brother, you are not convinced? How about we practice." "Hey! What are you practicing, you are trying to bully me because of your youth! Who dares to disobey your brother''s military achievements and the entire army. But you are really powerful, how can you chat and laugh with so many generals? It seems that your colonel''s rank will be raised again soon! In the future, you can''t always hang around in front of my brother, let me salute you! " Colonel Titch really admired the little brother in front of him from the bottom of his heart. I think that when the two met for the first time, the other was a second lieutenant and he was a colonel. Now the other party is the colonel, and he is still the colonel. Although the two belong to the same naval order, the other is the commander of the most powerful First Fleet in the navy, but he is also the commander of a naval base. Although the commander of the capital''s naval base is a coveted post for many people. However, putting it together with Fang Lang''s position is simply not the same. Fortunately, the personal relationship between the two is not bad, and maybe they will have the opportunity to say good things about themselves in front of their superiors in the future. As for whether Fang Lang''s military rank will be raised again, there is almost no doubt about it. After all, the Ministry of the Navy is now seeking an aircraft carrier. If a deal can be reached, the aircraft carrier must be given priority in equipping the First Fleet. The commander of such a powerful naval fleet can''t justify not conferring the rank of major general! So it will be a matter of time before Fang Lang is awarded the rank of major general. "To be honest, communicating with these generals is scary, for fear of saying the wrong thing. If you want to communicate with them, I will bring you with me next time." "Don''t, don''t, if I really have this blessing, I won''t have to stay in this naval base long ago. To be honest, brother, I am not afraid of your jokes. I guess my life as a colonel will come to an end. You are different, you are still young, have a bright future, and are capable, so, dude, I am very optimistic about you. In the future, if you are well-developed, you can still remember me as a brother. " Colonel Tich meant that Fang Lang understood very well that he was optimistic about his future and that he could enter the center of the army. Unfortunately, what he doesn''t know is that he just wants to be a big warlord with a gun in his hand and not panic. As for the positions in the center of the Ministry of National Defense, Fang Lang is really not interested. Looking at Colonel Tiqi in front of him, Fang Lang suddenly had a very bold idea in his heart for no reason. If you don''t want to enter the center, you can support your own people to go up! Having someone in the center is of great benefit to him. Thinking of this, he couldn''t help but look up and down Colonel Teach in front of him. Seeing that Fang Lang didn''t speak, but instead looked him up and down with a strange look, Colonel Teach felt awkward, as if he had been seen through. Thought that the door was not closed, he quickly tidied up his clothes and found nothing unusual, so he looked nervously at Fang Lang and said: "I said brother, can we talk about it if we have something to say? Your eyes make me feel hairy." Hearing what Colonel Teach said, Fang Lang couldn''t help laughing, approached Colonel Teach and said: "Dude, how about I push you up?" Fang Lang''s words stunned Colonel Tiqi for a moment, and he didn''t react for a while. After a long while, looking at Fang Lang''s somewhat unpredictable eyes, Colonel Tiqi''s eyes slowly began to widen, his face began to turn red, and his breathing began to become short of breath. Looking at Fang Lang in disbelief, wondering if his ears had heard it wrong. He doesn''t doubt whether Fang Lang has this ability, after all, his family established a military industrial group in Brazil. Close relationship with the new president. Recently, I heard that a large project of the automobile industry system was introduced from Germany, which caused a surge of capital in Brazil and participated in it one after another. Suddenly, Fangyuan Group''s position in Brazil was second to none. In a capitalist society, if you have money and capital, you have everything. In terms of military affairs, he is the commander of the largest and most powerful fleet in Brazil, and the only military group in the country with the three armed forces. Diplomatically, he has a close relationship with military figures in many European and American countries. Fang Lang, who has such a profound background, wants to make a career in Brazil. It is not easy. However, through his association with Fang Lang, he knew that Fang Lang is not a person who likes a false name, he prefers real rights. It''s not that the bigwigs of the Ministry of National Defense have no real power, but between the real power faction sitting in the office and the real power faction holding heavy soldiers, Fang Lang prefers the latter. Therefore, when he heard that Fang Lang intended to push him up, it took him a while to realize that he wanted to use the influence of the Fang family to raise his position up. For Colonel Teach, such news is of course good news, but he also understands that there is no such thing as a free lunch. If you want people to support you, you must have value for people to invest in. What can I bring to him? "Are you serious?" But since Fang Lang mentioned this, of course Colonel Teach would not refuse. He does not have a deep background. It turned out that the backer in the army had retired a few years ago, and he has been in his current post for nearly five years. Originally, he also wanted to take the opportunity of participating in the European war to get a gold plating. Unfortunately, in the Brazilian army, no one will give you a chance without a backer. He understood very early on that following General Morais felt that the future was boundless, but he simply didn''t even have a chance to make it. Looking at Colonel Tiqi who looked at him with a serious expression, Fang Lang knew that the other party understood what he meant. Glancing around, seeing that no one was paying attention to them, Fang Lang lowered his voice and said: "My first fleet is too far away from the center, I need a friend of my own in the center, and you happen to be my friend, don''t you?" As a result, Colonel Teach looked at Fang Lang seriously and shook his head: "No, we''re not friends." Fang Lang was taken aback by what he said, and when Fang Lang was still wondering if Tiqi wanted to sternly refuse to form a party for personal gain, he heard Colonel Tiqi continue: "we are brothers." Hearing Colonel Teach gasping for breath, Fang Lang was so angry that he wanted to kick his ass. Colonel Teach''s attitude has been expressed very clearly, Fang Lang didn''t say anything more, but stretched out his right hand with a smile, Colonel Teach stepped forward with a little excitement when he saw this, and grabbed Fang tightly wave hands. Feeling the strength from his hands, Fang Lang laughed. Although this kind of verbal agreement is not binding at all. However, political groups pay attention to the exchange of benefits. If I give you benefits, you have to give me back. It is not difficult for Fang Lang to help Colonel Teach. The key now is that he does not need Colonel Teach to return immediately, and he cannot confirm whether this political alliance is reliable. However, based on the relationship between Fang Lang and Colonel Teach, Colonel Teach should belong to the kind of person who can be trusted. "Haha. That''s right, we are brothers. But to find a suitable opportunity, we have to wait now." "Don''t worry! I still don''t understand these principles? I didn''t expect to have the opportunity to go further, brother, don''t worry, I have received your wish." Fang Lang smiled and did not continue to entangle in this topic. But both of them knew in their hearts that the relationship between political allies was officially established. As for how the two parties need to help each other later, it depends on the specific situation in the later period. Colonel Ticci also ended the topic in a timely manner, and began to take the initiative to pull Fang Lang to introduce him to the officers of the Brazilian Navy who participated in the presidential inauguration. The current Brazilian navy is far from being as powerful as later generations. The navy is very weak, and most of the warships are antiques from World War I. Of course, you cant underestimate the Brazilian Navy just because he is an antique. After all, the Brazilian Navy has also closely followed the era of dreadnoughts. During World War I, the Brazilian Navy had two Minas Gerais-class battleships. It''s a pity that these two dreadnoughts, which were built by the British after slight modifications based on the second type of British dreadnought Bellerophon class, were pitted by the British, both in terms of armor and firepower. . During World War II, these two battleships were hard to catch the eyes of the Americans, and they were unwilling to take him to play with them. Therefore, they have been only responsible for Brazil''s coastal defense and **** work. Basically nothing to do. (end of this chapter) Chapter 190: Naval colleagues Chapter 190 Naval colleagues In fact, it turned out that Fang Lang didn''t know the strength of the Brazilian Navy, but he gradually gained a general understanding of the strength of the Brazilian Navy during his exchanges with Colonel Parisi, Colonel Tiche, and his own de la Torre. In addition to these two battleships owned by the Brazilian Navy, the most advanced battleship is the Bahia-class light cruiser, which was also ordered by the Brazilian government from the United Kingdom. The British built according to the specifications of the British reconnaissance cruiser Explorer, a total of two ships (Bahia and Rio Grande Doso), also veterans who participated in World War I. Unfortunately, there is only one left now. Because the Bahia was in the process of performing a fixed-point rescue mission for the US transatlantic transport plane after the war ended, specifically on July 4, 1945. During the routine live-ammunition air-to-air shooting training, after a gunner operating a 20mm anti-aircraft gun hit the target drone, he didn''t know whether he was greedy for success or addicted to it. Chase hard. Who would have thought that because the target plane fell in the direction of the ship, the shells fired by the gunner unfortunately hit the depth charges arranged on the ship. After a strong explosion, the Bahia sank to the bottom of the sea. Except for the remaining cruiser Rio Grande Doso, the Brazilian Navy only has eight old destroyers from World War I left. In other words, the current Brazilian Navy, except for Fang Lang''s First Navy Fleet, has only eleven old-fashioned warships in total. However, Fang Lang''s First Fleet has one of the latest American Cleveland-class cruisers, three Fletcher-class destroyers, one Xiaosha-class submarine, one of Germany''s most advanced U-shaped submarines, and two U.S. military gifts. tank landing ship. There are eight warships in total, and all of them are advanced warships that have just experienced World War II. Their combat effectiveness is not the same as that of the original old warships of the Brazilian Navy. This naturally made the other generals of the Brazilian Navy jealous, wishing they could carve up the warships of the First Fleet. It is a pity that the Navy General Staff is not willing to separate the warships of the First Fleet. This also caused Fang Lang to have a special status in the Brazilian Navy, although he is very powerful. But the relationship with other navies is not harmonious. Intersected with Colonel Teach or before the end of the war, when the First Fleet had not yet been established! Therefore, we can become friends. According to the admirals, Fang Lang is the youngest son of the Ministry of the Navy, while the others were adopted before their biological sons came out. Colonel Teach certainly knew about this particular situation. Therefore, I want to use this new president''s inauguration ceremony to introduce Fang Lang to other naval officers and ease their friendship. "Fang, let me introduce you, our colleagues in the Brazilian Navy, this is Colonel Marcelino Orlando, captain of the battleship Minas Gerais, This is Colonel Emrey Little, the captain of the battleship St. Paul, This is Colonel Gonzalo Thorne, captain of the cruiser Rio Grande Doso, This is Colonel Przemeslo Doyle of Belm Naval Base, This is Colonel Gordon McCoy of the Salvador Naval Base, This is Colonel Gnard Berry of St. Paul Naval Base. " Fang Lang also saluted and shook hands with everyone one by one, appearing very humble and polite. However, standing among a group of middle-aged and elderly colonel officers with wrinkled faces and some with gray hair, no matter how humble and polite Fang Lang was, he looked a little out of place. Everyone looked at Fang Lang differently, some looked carefully, some looked playful, some simply looked disdainful, and there were various expressions. However, at this special time point, everyone still showed great restraint. Some people just nodded and ignored it, and some people still had fake smiles on their faces. There was also a warm handshake with Fang Lang. This person was Colonel Gnard Berry of the St. Paul Naval Base. "Colonel Fang, I am stationed in your hometown! Recently, Santos Port has become very lively because of the big move of the Fangyuan Group! Next time you go to Sao Paulo, you must remember to come and drink with me. " Fang Lang also hurried forward to communicate with him cordially. "Colonel Berry, hello! Hello! Our family''s safety in Sao Paulo is thanks to your protection! Next time I go to Sao Paulo, I will definitely entertain you at home for a drink." "Haha. Why do you have to wait until next time? After Mr. President''s inauguration is over, we will have a good get-together with Tiki." Hearing what Berry said, Fang Lang had some guesses in his heart, and looked at Colonel Teach beside him. Sure enough, he saw Colonel Teach smiling and nodding at himself. Fang Lang understood that this Colonel Berry might be a good friend of Colonel Teach, that''s why he was so enthusiastic about him. "No problem, let''s get together and meet new friends after Mr. President''s inauguration is over." In fact, several naval base officers of the Brazilian Navy still have a little bit of power, because they are actually not just the officers of the naval base. During World War I, Brazil divided its navy into four theaters, namely the Belem theater in the north, the Salvador theater in the east, the capital theater in Rio de Janeiro, and the Sao Paulo theater in the south. Of course, there is now a Natal theater in the northeast of Fang Lang. Obviously, the chief of this war zone is the chief of each naval base. In fact, what each naval base can sell is two old-fashioned destroyers from World War I, and there are only eight old-fashioned destroyers in the four theaters. As for the two battleships and the remaining cruiser, they are directly under the jurisdiction of the Navy General Staff. When the battles in each theater are needed, assign them to the corresponding theater to participate in the battle. Fang Lang doesn''t even know what two destroyers can do in one theater, who can be driven out? Therefore, after the end of World War II, it became inevitable for the Brazilian Navy to buy new warships from the U.S. Navy to arm itself. The Brazilian Navy in history really started to start at the same time that Brazil purchased dozens of warships from the United States after the end of World War II. Adhere to the road of localization of ships, and develop many ships on its own, so that the strength of the navy has rapidly improved, surpassing Chile and Argentina successively, and becoming the number one maritime power in South America in one fell swoop. Of course, although Fang Lang now has the First Fleet, the Brazilian Navy is actually still a rookie. Just in Fang Lang''s mind, he was thinking about the strength of the Brazilian Navy at this time, and guessing why Colonel Berry was so enthusiastic. Colonel Teach had already explained the reason for Fang Lang first. "Haha. Berry, if you want a new destroyer, you should go to the Ministry of the Navy. It''s useless to find Fang Lang." When Fang Lang heard this, he still didn''t understand why Barry was so enthusiastic. This must be the last time I revealed to Colonel Teach that I could get him an American Fletcher-class destroyer. And Colonel Teach told Colonel Barry the news. The officers of the other two naval bases were stunned when they heard what Colonel Teach said. Soon his face became very enthusiastic and he came over and said: "How can you miss us if you want to eat? Right! McCoy." It was Colonel Puzemeslo Doyle of Belm Naval Base who spoke, and Colonel Gordon McCoy of El Salvador Naval Base who was questioned by him also nodded repeatedly: "That''s right! Drinking can''t do without us!" This is completely different from the expressions of the two when Colonel Teach made the introduction just now. Colonel Tiche saw it, smiled, and didn''t say much. The captains of the other two battleships still had a haughty and disdainful expression, as if they looked down on the performance of several people fawning on Fang Lang for the sake of the small destroyer. On the contrary, Colonel Gonzalo Thorne, the captain of the cruiser Rio Grande Dosso, showed a little interest after hearing the conversation of several people, but hesitated for a while, and did not take the initiative to join in. Fang Lang saw the changes in the attitudes of several people, and he seemed very enthusiastic, and he didn''t treat them differently because of the bad attitude of the other party when he greeted earlier. After all, the customer is God! Everyone has demand for new warships so he can do business! Whether he wants the retired warships of the US Navy or builds new warships in Brazil, there is no way to escape his business scope. "Okay, I''ll treat you tonight''s meal, and we must all stay drunk." Several people laughed when they saw Fang Lang being so proactive, and expressed that they would not return home if they were drunk. General Morais in the distance saw the movement of several people from a distance, smiled slightly, and asked General Leta beside him: "Letta, I heard that Fangyuan Group''s military-industrial group hastened to trial-produce a few cannons this time, is it true that they are used as a gift to Mr. President?" General Leta heard the Minister of Defense asking about his work, and quickly said with a serious expression: "Yes, Your Excellency, General. This trial production is an American M2A1 105mm howitzer, which completely adopts imported American artillery technology and is completed under the guidance of American experts throughout the process. After the test of our logistics department, there is no difference with the original American artillery. However, American experts said that this is only a trial production, and the artillery still has certain flaws, and it needs to continue to improve the process before it can be officially put into production. " "Oh! Did the American experts explain, what are the specific flaws, and what craftsmanship needs to be improved?" General Morais was a little curious, why the Brazilian logistics department had already passed the acceptance, but the American experts still said that they would continue to improve the technology. "Your Excellency, as far as I know, the artillery expert named Girard Bull said that the current artillery is a complete imitation of American artillery. However, when Colonel Fang recruited him from the United States, he specifically stated that he should be given the right to research artillery, and now he is already making new improvements to this type of artillery. He wants to produce this gun through the new electroslag remelting and barrel self-tightening technology. It is expected that the barrel of the gun will be stronger than the original American version, with a longer service life and lighter weight. At the same time, he expressed his intention to apply chrome plating to the inner bore of the artillery to further extend the service life of the artillery. So, it is not ready to mass-produce this artillery. " General Leta actually doesnt know much about these manufacturing techniques, and this can be regarded as learning and using it now, which has given General Morais a little limelight. "You mean, he wanted to produce a better gun than the American original, right?" General Morais didn''t understand these crafts, but he still grasped the key point easily. "Yes, Your Excellency the General." This was obviously beyond the expectations of General Morais. In everyone''s perception, the current American products are the most advanced and the best. Unexpectedly, the artillery expert Fang Lang found could still be able to sell American products. based on improvement. (end of this chapter) Chapter 191: into the eyes Chapter 191 Into the eyes General Morais looked at Fang Lang who was chatting and laughing with a group of naval officers not far away, and was extremely satisfied. At the beginning, the family took the initiative to let the family build a modern shipyard in Brazil to open the way for the future independent shipbuilding of the Brazilian Navy. The current shipyard has already begun to manufacture ships. Maybe as soon as the Ministry of the Navy can place an order with them, they can start building new warships for the Brazilian Navy. Now I heard that an artillery factory invested and built by their family has already been put into production. The key is that they did not rely on the Americans for their laurels. It turned out to be very aggressive, and it is really commendable to want to optimize on the original basis. General Leta saw General Morais''s satisfied smile, but he still didn''t understand that Fang Lang had completely fallen into the eyes of General Morais. After hesitating for a moment, he looked around and said in a low voice: "When Colonel Fang went out to inspect the military industry on behalf of the military this time, he found several firearms designers in Germany. He wanted to build a light weapons factory by himself and research light weapons. However, because there is no production authorization for other light weapons, a lot of money may be invested in independent research in the early stage. " "Oh! Did he ask you for support?" When General Morais heard this, he immediately became interested and asked quickly. "Ah! That''s not true. His idea is to study silently first, and then expand the scale after the results are obtained." General Leta didn''t dare to tell General Morais that Fang Lang had allowed himself to buy shares in his own name. If you know this, you may have to think about where your money comes from! After all, his image has always been clean and honest. It seems that I shouldn''t talk about this matter. If I say this, General Morais will definitely pay attention to this project, so won''t I lose the opportunity to invest? well! I didn''t think about it! While General Leta was secretly regretting that he should not talk too much, General Morais moved in his heart and said: "Go and tell him, after Mr. President''s inauguration, let him come to me and say that I want to chat with him alone." Hearing this, General Leta was shocked, the current General Morais is different from the past. The original General Morais was the commander of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. With the election of General Dutra as President, General Morais was directly appointed as the Minister of Defense, with the influence of General Morais in the military circle. It can be said that the current General Morais is the number one person in the military world, and being able to get the attention of General Morais is destined to make Fang Lang''s road in the military world smooth. This is different from President Dutra. After all, the Brazilian government and the military are complementary to each other. President Dutra''s choice to serve as the president of Brazil means that he has given up his military status. Once you give up your military status, although you still have some influence in the military, it is far from the original influence. Thinking of this, I can''t help thinking that it seems that Fang Lang can no longer buy his wife''s paintings in the future! In just a few words, two sources of money were lost in a row, which made General Leta''s heart ache. But since General Morais asked himself to pass the message, he could only quickly respond in a low voice: "Yes, Your Excellency General." Seeing that General Morais had no other orders, General Leta walked towards Fang Lang and his group of naval officers unhurriedly. When everyone saw General Letta coming, they all stood at attention and saluted. Letta greeted everyone very kindly, which really flattered everyone! Because in the minds of most people, General Letta is an outlier in the Brazilian army. He is rigid and serious. If Fang Lang heard the voices of the people, he would definitely give them a haha, not even a gift, and others would definitely drive you out of the office! But General Leta greeted them with a smile on his face today, which made everyone a little uncomfortable. When General Leta came to Fang Lang and whispered: "Colonel Fang, after the ceremony is over, don''t leave. General Morais wants to talk to you alone." As soon as these words came out, Fang Lang was not only taken aback, but the expressions of all the officers around him changed. The look in Fang Lang''s eyes began to change. Because everybody knows what that means. Colonel Tich''s eyes flashed with joy. It seems that his brother''s position in the upper circle of the Brazilian army is indeed extraordinary! He knew that Fang Lang had a good relationship with General Leta, and he also knew that Fang Lang had a relationship with General Morais. However, today General Leta informed Fang Lang in public that General Morais asked Fang Lang to chat alone. This signal made everyone have to face up to Fang Lang''s position in the Brazilian army again. Even the faces of the two battleship captains and cruiser captains not far away were full of envy. Although I don''t know the purpose of General Morais'' meeting with me alone, it is obviously inconvenient to ask at this time. Can only stand at attention quickly: "Yes, as ordered, Your Excellency General." Noticing General Leta''s meaningful eyes, Fang Lang was numb all over, what do you mean! You didn''t say what others were looking for me for, but instead looked at me like this, how can I understand what you mean! However, he can also understand that it is impossible for the other party to say anything to him in such a public place. Soon, after everyone gathered, under the leadership of General Morais, they took a unified vehicle to the Capitol to attend the inauguration ceremony of President Dutra. The entire ceremony was solemn and solemn, and all the people who came to see the inauguration ceremony were from the military and political circles of Brazil. Fang Lang found many familiar faces in it, many of whom had come forward to discuss cooperation with Fang Lang in the automotive industry system. When these people saw Fang Lang, they also stopped and nodded to Fang Lang, and Fang Lang had to nod in return. All the generals of the sea, land and air forces looked sideways, wondering why these politicians would get acquainted with a naval colonel. Suddenly, Fang Lang''s identity became confusing. After finally finding his own seat and sitting down, Fang Lang noticed that Colonel Tiki next to him secretly gave him a thumbs up. Fortunately, the atmosphere in the venue was relatively solemn and not suitable for conversation, so Fang Lang hid away. Otherwise, someone close to me might run over and ask directly. There were not only military and political officials in Brazil at the inauguration ceremony, but also representatives from other countries, but most of them were ambassadors from various countries, and Fang Lang didn''t know anyone. Perhaps for President Dutra and the new government officials, today is a busy and fulfilling day. But for Fang Lang, it was the opposite. The whole ceremony process was cumbersome and boring. The main reason is that Fang Lang is very boring sitting on the chair. It took a whole morning before the ceremony ended. This also heralds that Brazil has officially entered a new era, and the light of democracy briefly came to Brazil, the largest country in South America. President Dutra in history did not have outstanding achievements during his tenure, but he promulgated a new constitution in September 1946. While the presidency remains the primary institution, the office is subject to many restrictions that prevent future leaders from abusing their power. The new constitution establishes a system of three powers in the government, guaranteeing the independence and freedom of Congress in electing members. This is a political contribution. Economically, because the war has just ended and the world economy has recovered rapidly, President Dutra supported the development of the private economy and foreign-funded enterprises, allowing Brazil''s domestic economy to develop rapidly. Of course, because the Brazilian government is closer to the U.S. government, it will inevitably become the U.S. raw material supply base and commodity dumping place. Of course, some excellent enterprises also appeared in Brazil. During this period, Brazil''s economic development entered a period of small prosperity. As for the military, since President Dutra is a soldier, he has invested heavily in the military, and economic development has also provided funds for the development of armaments in the treasury. Therefore, during this period, the equipment update speed of the Brazilian army was very fast. Moreover, President Dutra saw the shortcomings of the lack of military strength in the Brazilian army. During this period, the number of troops also began to increase slowly. At the same time, this period was also a period of rapid population increase in Brazil. This period in history was the peak period of large-scale Japanese immigration to Brazil. It''s a pity that because of Fang Lang''s coquettish operations, Brazil now has a very bad impression of Japanese descent, whether it is from the government level or from the grassroots level. Everyone is still carrying out vigorous liquidation activities against Japanese people. It is very rare to have such a rare opportunity to have government support to seize Japanese property. The former President Vargas knew very well in his heart that these Japanese descendants may have really come to protect the safety of his president. However, even if he knew it, it didn''t mean he could approve of this behavior. No matter from which aspect, a single ethnic group armed to surround the presidential palace is not acceptable to a politician. Even, if it werent for this kind of coquettish manipulation by Japanese, Vargas would not have ended up like this. So, in Vargas'' mind, the hatred for Japanese descendants is no less than that of Fang Lang. Judging from the above situations, Fang Lang actually doesn''t have to worry that the Japanese will return to Brazil any time soon. However, Fang Lang didn''t dare to take it lightly. After all, there are many people in Japan who can''t survive. Maybe someone will re-land in Brazil by boat based on pre-war memories. So, Fang Lang ordered the warships at the Natal Naval Base to patrol the northern coast of Brazil from time to time, and if Japanese ships were found, they would be repatriated. If there is a situation of non-stop persuasion, let the submarine practice hunting tactics, or let the cargo ship hit a mine and sink in the Atlantic Ocean. Anyway, during the war, it was said that there were many torpedoes scattered in the Atlantic Ocean. Let the Japanese enjoy it, and there is no waste. Therefore, no Japanese ships were able to approach Brazil at all during this period. On the contrary, through the Fangyuan Group labor service company, there is indeed an endless stream of boats immigrating from their hometown to Brazil. Especially when Chang Kaishen started to fight, many people in his hometown who wanted to escape the war took the initiative to sign up for labor service companies to go to Brazil to work. Let the Hongmen gang in my hometown have money to collect, and everyone is very happy. As long as the government officials can get the magic medicine like penicillin, they don''t care about the life and death of the common people, and they provide various conveniences for the immigration activities of labor service companies. Some officials even packed the prisoners in the cells directly and sent them to the immigration ship of the labor service company in exchange for penicillin. Of course, there are many political prisoners under the strict supervision of the National Party, but they dare not operate like this. But for a while, petty thieves on the street were hard to find. (end of this chapter) Chapter 192: summoned by the minister of defense Chapter 192 Summoned by the Minister of Defense Brazilian Ministry of Defense in Rio de Janeiro, Office of the new Secretary of Defense. After attending the inauguration ceremony of the new president, Fang Lang drove directly outside the minister''s office, waiting for General Morais to summon him. Waited until more than four o''clock in the afternoon before General Morais arrived late. After seeing General Morais return to the office, Fang Lang, who had been waiting outside the office, quickly got up and saluted, not daring to show any dissatisfaction. General Morais greeted Fang Lang very enthusiastically and said: "Haha. Colonel Fang, we have met. Don''t be too polite! Come in and let''s talk." After finishing speaking, he patted Fang Lang''s arm, and strode into the office first. After entering the office, he directed Fang Lang to the sofa in the reception room to sit down, then picked up the coffee pot with his own hands, and made coffee for Fang Lang. This made Fang Lang feel a little flattered, and quickly got up to help. But was stopped by General Morais: "Just sit down, I must brew this cup of coffee myself." Fang Lang has also dealt with General Morais twice, and he understands that this kind of treatment is obviously not for everyone. Seeing the other party''s firm attitude, he didn''t continue to decline, but just showed a flattered expression appropriately. General Morais didn''t make Fang Lang wait any longer. After brewing coffee, he brought it to Fang Lang and said: "This time Mr. President''s inauguration, I heard that your company has been able to produce American 105MM howitzers. This is pretty amazing. I think when we were communicating about naval construction, you could have offered to build our own modern shipyard in Brazil. Your promises have been fulfilled, which makes me very relieved. Today I want to ask you, if your shipyard is allowed to undertake the task of building warships, can it be completed. " Fang Lang felt relieved when he heard that it was such a good thing. However, he knows that there is still a big difference between building a container ship and building a warship, at least there is a big difference in the steel used. Therefore, I dare not brag. can only honestly say: "Your Excellency, our family''s shipyard has just started, and we are accumulating construction experience through the manufacture of merchant ships. If we are building a warship now, I am worried that something will go wrong due to lack of experience, and our family will die. And, most importantly, our family has not yet found the material formula for armor steel for warships. I went to Germany this time to see if I could have a chance to find the formula for ship armor steel. However, due to time constraints, there is no harvest yet. " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, General Morais was obviously disappointed, but he disappeared soon, and continued: "It''s okay, I believe we will succeed. If there is anything that requires me to come forward, please be sure to tell me directly. I will definitely do my best to help you achieve it." Fang Lang was still very moved by General Morais'' sincere concern. Although Fang Lang also understood that the other party wanted him to quickly allow Brazil to have its own warship construction capabilities. After thinking about it, Fang Lang said: "Don''t worry! If there is no way to get the required formula from Germany, I think I can think of a way from Italy." During the conversation just now, Fang Lang suddenly remembered that when Universal Shipbuilding acquired the shipyard in Genoa, Italy, there was a military shipyard next to it. And it seemed to be mentioned at the time that many engineers from Italian military shipyards were recruited by Italy''s Universal Shipyard. Now that the Minister of Defense has mentioned that he wants to build ships independently, the design capabilities of Brazil''s domestic shipyards will begin to improve. Perhaps engineers and designers with experience in warship construction will be drawn from Global Shipbuilding''s shipyards around the world. , and soon the design team for the Brazilian Navy''s shipbuilding will be set up. Then you can start designing warships according to the needs of the Brazilian Navy. Actually, Fang Lang didn''t want to start the construction of warships so early, because he knew that the current warships would soon be obsolete, and the future would be the era of missile ships. It would be a waste to start building warships now. Fortunately, after General Morais heard that the technical problem of expert steel had not been solved, he stopped talking about the topic of independent shipbuilding. Instead, he changed the subject: "Today I heard General Letta tell me that you plan to set up a small arms company by yourself?" Fang Lang did not expect that General Leta would report this matter directly to the Minister of Defense. Suddenly, he was a little caught off guard, and he couldn''t figure out what the purpose of General Morais''s asking about this matter was. It will not be Mr. Minister of Defense who wants to participate in a share! If General Morais wanted to take part, Fang Lang would not refuse. After all, being able to get in touch with General Morais would definitely be of great benefit to his future in the army. "Yes, Your Excellency General. This time I happened to meet a very good gun designer in Germany, and chatted with him about some gun design concepts and development trends. I was accidentally persuaded by him, and I was thinking about whether I could support his research, so I moved my mind and established a small arms company in Brazil. " General Morais was obviously interested in what Fang Lang said. "Oh! I wonder if you can talk to me about how you think about the development trend of firearms, and what kind of design philosophy this designer has." This made Fang Lang a little bit blind. How do I look at the development trend of firearms? I know a lot! My thoughts are all judged from the fact that those weapons in later generations finally became the mainstream. Now you ask me how this trend came about. How do I know! But now it is the Minister of Defense asking, not brothers and friends bragging together, so I cant say it, I guess! After thinking about it, Fang Lang still said: I also heard from the designer that I dont have any mature ideas, but what he said really convinced me. If there is something wrong, I hope you will not blame it. " General Morais heard Fang Lang''s words, took a sip of coffee, and gestured to Fang Lang with a smile on his face to continue: "This trend is mainly based on the fact that the German army used the G43 semi-automatic rifle in the war, which exposed the shortcomings of insufficient firepower in the face of machine gun suppression. And the range and accuracy of the submachine gun can''t provide much help. Using a light machine gun is unacceptable for its weight and huge supply pressure. In the latter part of the war, the German elite infantry squad began to equip a STG-44 assault rifle. In actual combat, Allied soldiers using semi-automatic weapons had almost no chance of winning when they encountered German soldiers equipped with automatic rifles. Automatic rifles rely on their fierce firepower, higher accuracy, longer range, good ergonomics, and mature and reliable technical performance to completely crush semi-automatic weapons. Therefore, we believe that the future development trend of rifles must be automatic rifles with more powerful firepower, that is, assault rifles. " Fang Lang''s words made General Morais deep in thought, and he asked after a while: "Then have you considered the ammunition consumption of using a fully automatic rifle?" After all, he is not a rich man in the United States, and Brazil''s economic conditions are not good, so the first problem that General Morais thought of was the terrible ammunition consumption of fully automatic rifles. Fang Lang can''t always say, the more ammunition consumed, the more I earn! can only nod and say: "Formally based on this consideration, I didn''t make a big deal about this matter. I only planned to use part of the funds to support the research of new equipment." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, General Morais''s eyes were full of appreciation, and after thinking for a while, he asked: "Have you considered that if the automatic rifle adopts the burst mode, the powerful recoil will instantly send the rear bullets into the sky? Wouldn''t the accuracy of the automatic rifle you mentioned be lost?" After all, it is an old army. General Morais easily discovered the shortcomings of the current automatic rifles. Actually, Fang Lang has already discovered this problem, but he is going to wait for Ludwig Folger to come to Brazil before proposing a change. After all, the rifle bullets used by various countries are basically full-power large-caliber bullets, especially the 7.92mm*57mm full-power bullets used by Germany. This kind of bullet is used as a bolt-action rifle or a semi-automatic rifle. There is no problem with a range of more than 800 meters. However, bullets for automatic rifles are obviously overpowered. All the calibers used later by the Soviet Union or NATO are 7.62MM calibers. The Soviet Union used intermediate-power bullets earlier than the United States, so the AK47 uses intermediate-power bullets with a length of 39MM. NATO used 51mm NATO rifle ammunition, which led to the effective range of the G3 assault rifle using NATO standard ammunition of 400 meters, which exceeded the effective range of 300 meters of AK47. Of course, the effective range is mentioned here! The standard range of AK47 is 800 meters, and the maximum lethal range is 1,500 meters. Fang Lang also knew that most of the rifles of later generations used 5.56mm caliber, and later he disliked the poor armor-piercing ability of 5.56mm, and began to study 6.8mm caliber bullets. These are things that will happen half a century later, and it is impossible for Fang Lang to do such advanced things. After all, what is good for future generations may not be the most suitable for the present era. In Fang Lang''s mind, a bullet of a certain specification had already appeared in Fang Lang''s mind. That is, Czechoslovakia has a 7.62mm*45mm intermediate power bullet, which Fang Lang thinks is very good. Although the recoil may be slightly larger than that of AK, it is definitely less than the recoil of using NATO standard ammunition. If it doesnt work, just remind Ludwig Folger to add a muzzle brake in front of the gun! Isnt such recoil and power more appropriate? "Your Excellency, this requires us to change the full-power bullets into intermediate-power bullets." As soon as these words were spoken, General Morais immediately understood what Fang Lang meant, but changing bullets was much more stressful than changing firearms. The manufacture of firearms generally revolves around bullets. Fortunately, Brazil does not have its own bullet standards. However, all the bullets of the Brazilian army are American 7.62mm*63mm rifle bullets, which are the standard bullets of the American M1 Garand rifle. If the bullets are to be replaced, it means that all the bullets in stock in the country will be scrapped, and the loss will be huge. Suddenly, General Morais became in a dilemma. Of course he wanted to support Fang Lang in the localization of light weapons, but if he wanted to change the caliber of bullets, this kind of thing would affect the whole body. It is impossible for him to decide with one word. Although General Morais has not yet confirmed whether the development trend of light weapons mentioned by Fang Lang is correct, this does not affect Morais''s desire to support Fang Lang. (end of this chapter) Chapter 193: One hundred and ninety third appreciation Chapter 193 One hundred and ninety-three appreciation General Morais has no way of determining whether what Fang Lang said is the correct direction and trend. Now that he is the Minister of Defense, he dare not take risks. Originally, I wanted to fully support Fang Lang''s construction of a light weapons factory in China, but now after hearing what Fang Lang said, I began to feel uncertain. "Fang, I have no objection to your research on new technologies and new directions. However, I think we can try to start with the current mainstream firearms. For example, I can talk to the United States about the production authorization of the M1 Garand rifle, and then, how about your light weapons factory producing this rifle first. " Fang Lang understood that this was because General Morais was worried that Fang Lang was too ambitious, and he was not very optimistic about Fang Lang''s idea of ??directly developing a fully automatic rifle. As for General Morais'' request to help obtain authorization for the M1 Garand rifle, Fang Lang believes that it is not difficult with the current relationship between the United States and Brazil. However, as far as Fang Lang knows, the total output of the M1 Garand rifle has reached 5.5 million, which is a rather terrifying number. At the same time, the number of M1 Garand rifles that Shata Company can directly purchase from the US Department of Logistics is in the millions. With such a huge number, if Fang Lang still joins in and continues to produce, it will definitely fall into his hands in the future. This kind of loss-making buyer and seller will not do it. And at this time, going to the United States to negotiate the authorization of the M1 Garand is not as expensive as going directly to Germany to obtain the authorization of the G43. But after these guns were produced, Fang Lang didn''t know who they should sell them to. So, after thinking twice, Fang Lang still said: "Your Excellency, if I directly set up a light weapons manufacturing company, will the Brazilian Defense Force replace all weapons and equipment with ours?" It is certainly impossible to get an affirmative answer to this question. After all, the Brazilian army is not Fang Lang''s army. How could it be possible to replace all the equipment for localization! Seeing General Morais shaking his head in embarrassment. Fang Lang smiled. He didn''t want to embarrass Mr. Minister of Defense. Seeing the other party shaking his head, he continued: "So, we don''t need to let the light weapons factory have a large output now, or how much active equipment is produced, right? My opinion, I still want to build a small arms factory and conduct experiments. At the same time, we will also conduct research on light weapons, whether they are military or civilian weapons. Maybe our main product in the early stage will be a shotgun! " Actually, it''s not that Fang Lang doesn''t want to directly own an excellent light weapons manufacturing factory. It''s really an embarrassing time now, and the world war has just ended. Military enterprises all over the world have just relaxed from large-scale ordnance production, and have slightly slowed down the manufacture of weapons and equipment. Although the equipment has a service life, everyone is now mainly clearing the inventory. You start to enter this market on a large scale at this time, not to mention that you cant make much money, and you still have to pay a lot of money to enter. If someone wants arms, wouldnt it be good to honestly earn some dividends from the Shata Company? Brazilian artillery factories are much better. After all, Brazil did not have many troops participating in the European War, and the National Defense Forces did not have many advanced artillery. And the artillery factory aimed the artillery at 105mm and 155mm large-caliber artillery, which was urgently needed by the Brazilian Army. For the officers of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force who have experienced the baptism of the European War, the main artillery of the Brazilian Army are all 75mm caliber mountain guns, which is really unacceptable to them who have seen the world. So, Fang Lang is not worried that the artillery factory will have no business. Now we have to see when the artillery factory will include the mortars of various series in the production plan. "Okay! You convinced me. But I have to tell you that I firmly support your small arms factory plan. Even if there is no large-scale production of light weapons now, we must have the ability to produce light weapons on a large scale. " General Morais actually expressed very clearly that he wanted Brazil to have its own light weapons industry and the ability to manufacture it on a large scale. Fang Lang thought for a while and said: "Your Excellency, in order to thank your family for your help, I will first build the bullet production line in the factory to ensure that our own army can use domestic bullets." You must know that until modern times, there are only more than 30 countries in the world that can produce bullets, and there are only 13 countries that can produce artillery shells. Its not that bullets cant be made. Many people can make bullets by hand. How can it be said that bullets are not easy to make? However, whether qualified bullets can be produced on a large scale and whether bullets can be manufactured are two completely different concepts. Take Ah San as an example. Every day, he calls for the launch of an aircraft carrier today and the most advanced tanks tomorrow. However, this country does not even have the ability to manufacture qualified bullets on a large scale. Fang Lang said that there are also reasons for building a bullet production line. One is to take advantage of this special period to master the production capacity of bullets. Secondly, bullets are consumables. Military training requires bullets to be worn out. The rifling of guns is not so easy to smooth out. But bullets are different. After you knock out one round, it will be gone. You have to buy new ones. This is a long-term business! Also, bullet exits are far less sensitive than weapon exits. It will not attract the attention of others at all. "Okay, as long as your bullet production line can mass-produce qualified bullets, I can promise you that the bullets of the National Defense Force will only be purchased in your factory in the future." General Morais was very happy after hearing what Fang Lang said. It is difficult to replace weapons and equipment, but purchasing bullets is not difficult for him at all. This can not only ensure the domestic production of bullets, but also help Fang Lang further stabilize the profitability of the light weapons factory, so that the rare light weapons factory will not die, and it can be regarded as the greatest direct support. Fang Lang is of course very happy with General Morais'' promise, which means that as long as he has production capacity, his customers will be stable. Thinking that General Morais wanted to have a strong defense industry, Fang Lang thought for a while and said: "Your Excellency, in fact, I still have a project in hand, and I may need your support at that time." Hearing this, General Morais was surprised. He didn''t expect that besides the artillery factory and light weapons, Fang Lang had other projects in his hands. Can''t help but be very surprised, regardless of his identity, he said in surprise: "Oh! Tell me, what else is there?" Because Polman hasn''t clearly answered whether the aircraft designer has been recruited, Fang Lang can''t say too much, so he can only say: "I am going to set up an aircraft modification factory, first purchase American military transport aircraft and convert them into passenger aircraft, and slowly see if there is a chance to develop into the aviation industry." "What? You want to enter the aviation industry? However, it is difficult to support an aviation company with our basic industries in Brazil!" General Morais obviously has a certain understanding of the aviation industry. It is also very clear that Brazil''s weak domestic industrial base is actually difficult to support the development of an aircraft manufacturing plant. So, in his opinion, the reason why Fang Lang wants to enter the aviation industry is obviously to have the same dream of independent national defense as him. For a while, Fang Lang''s image in his eyes began to become extremely dazzling, as if he saw another self, and this young man was more courageous than himself. Directly using his own financial resources to enter the defense industry recklessly, this is something he himself cannot do. After hearing what General Morais said, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Your Excellency, haven''t you heard of the recently rumored plan to introduce the automobile industry? In fact, this plan is the way I rushed for the aviation industry." General Morais has heard about the introduction of the automobile industry system. This is what General Dutra has publicized as his greatest achievement since he took office. How many people in the government dont know now? He also knows that Fang Lang introduced this project, and Fangyuan Group is the largest shareholder of this project. At that time, he did not expect that this project would pave the way for the aviation industry. It seems that the young man in front of him is not simple! He is a master who takes one step and sees three steps. How can such a person be put down as an ordinary naval officer! At the very least, he should be in the General Staff Headquarters, responsible for promoting the localization of weapons and equipment, so that he can make the best use of it! Thinking of this, General Morais said without hesitation: "Fang, it is too wasteful for you to be a mere admiral in the navy. Are you interested in working in the General Staff? I can promise you that I will be promoted to the rank of major general within two years. Become a powerful general in charge of a single department. I believe that with your ability, you may soon become the next Chief of Staff of the National Defense Forces, or even the Minister of Defense. " Fang Lang was shocked by this remark. The original General Morais was not like this. I still remember that when we met for the first time, I fell into his trap in a daze, and gave up my good job as a transport captain to become a captain. The destroyer captain. Now he wants to give up his good command of the real power and go to the general staff to sit in the office. This is not his goal. Hastily shook his head and said: "Your Excellency, please don''t. I still want to become the commander of Brazil''s first aircraft carrier fleet! I can''t stand you asking me to work in the office. " After listening to Fang Lang''s words, I don''t know what General Morais thought of, he laughed and said: "Haha. I remembered, when you wanted to join the war in the Pacific battlefield, you wanted to learn the experience of aircraft carrier command! So have you learned anything? " This is a bit embarrassing. Fang Lang didn''t really learn aircraft carrier tactics on the aircraft carrier, but he learned the tactics of the US Air Force at the airport. However, since I want to be the commander of an aircraft carrier fleet, I certainly can''t say that I haven''t learned aircraft carrier tactics! The person in front of him is the Minister of Defense. If he directly said that he had never learned aircraft carrier tactics, he would have no chance to become the commander of an aircraft carrier formation. After thinking for a while, he opened his mouth and said: "Your Excellency, because the time is short, I have only learned aviation tactics. I originally thought that I would learn aircraft carrier tactics in detail when I continued to fight against Japan. As a result, Little Japan surrendered. However, please rest assured that if I am the commander of the aircraft carrier fleet, I am confident that I will be able to do it. " Fang Lang''s answer neither said that he had learned aircraft carrier tactics, nor that he had not learned aircraft carrier tactics. According to the ears of General Morais, half of the study was done, and the second half was intended to be studied on the battlefield. Unexpectedly, the war was over. resulting in not being able to learn everything. Even if he didn''t learn everything, he is the only senior officer in the entire Brazilian army who understands aircraft carrier tactics. Moreover, Fang Lang was born as an infantryman, and as a navy, he is the only naval officer who has participated in actual combat and has an excellent record. At the same time, he studied aviation tactics in the US Navy. In Brazil, there is no way to find another officer who is more suitable as the commander of the aircraft carrier formation than him. General Morais looked at the young officer in front of him, and was filled with emotions for a moment. This is really young and promising! Able to write and use martial arts, I didn''t have his ability when he was his age. unexpectedly gave birth to the idea that he was not as good as him. Maybe the Brazilian National Defense Force can become a truly modern and powerful army in his hands! The idea of ??cultivating him as a successor in his heart became stronger. (end of this chapter) Chapter 194: Discuss aircraft carrier again Chapter 194 Revisiting Aircraft Carriers I am also very happy that General Morais appreciates Fang Lang. After all, the supreme commander of the army appreciates himself, so don''t be too easy on his future. "Recently, the Ministry of the Navy is indeed striving to have its own aircraft carrier fleet, but it has not yet been approved at the meeting. Purchasing an aircraft carrier is not a small sum. It needs careful consideration. After all, the war is over now, and there is not much military pressure around. At this time, if we over-expand our armaments, the impact will not be very good. " Fang Lang very much agrees with General Morais''s statement that there is not much military pressure around Brazil. After all, this is indeed true. The entire Americas are now under the hegemony of the United States. Apart from the pressure that the United States will bring to them, there is really no other military pressure. However, in Fang Lang''s impression, Brazil still attaches great importance to the navy. After all, Brazil was originally a colony of Portugal, and Portugal used to be a naval power. Most of the big farmers and big capitalists in Brazil are of Portuguese descent, so according to tradition, it is necessary to pay attention to naval construction. Besides, the current Brazilian government is actually very rich, because during World War II, a series of basic natural resources such as iron ore in Brazil were continuously sent to the United States. In exchange for a large amount of US dollar reserves, based on Fang Lang''s understanding of history, these reserves will be replaced with Brazilian military equipment sooner or later. After all, the new president is from a military background. This background determines that he will always pay more attention to the development and construction of the military. Once you pay attention, you will notice the difference between yourself and an excellent country, and inevitably, you will invest a lot in army building. This is inevitable. Of course, Fang Lang is also happy to see it succeed, otherwise who will he sell the arms of his arms company to! Now Fang Lang is most concerned about which country he will buy from if Brazil buys an aircraft carrier, and will not buy it from the UK according to historical inertia! In that case, my Shata company in the United States will lose a big order! "Your Excellency, has the Admiralty found a suitable target now? I mean, I want to buy an aircraft carrier of that type from that country." "Definitely not! Even the plan has not been passed yet. However, I think it will be a matter of time to pass. Dont you have connections in the United States and Britain? You can explore the road in advance to see if there is any suitable opportunity or suitable model. If you can persuade the United States and Britain to agree to sell us a new type of aircraft carrier, I think the Ministry of Defense will give up the opportunity without reason. " I don''t know why, Fang Lang smelled a familiar smell, as if he had eaten the same recipe somewhere! Soon Fang Lang reacted. Depend on! The old guy in front of me doesn''t talk about martial arts! Come back to this set. But this time, Fang Lang didn''t refuse after thinking about it. After all, this time it was a business, or it could be his own business, and he had no reason to refuse. As long as it can be confirmed that the aircraft carrier can be used by him, the country will pay to purchase the aircraft carrier from its own company for its own use. No matter how you look at it, it is a good deal! "Are you serious, General? If you can promise that the aircraft carrier will be equipped with my First Fleet after returning home, then I am willing to use my relationship to lobby the US government to agree to sell the aircraft carrier to us." General Morais was obviously taken aback when he heard Fang Lang''s statement. He knew that Fang Lang had something to do with the US Navy, otherwise the original transport ship would not have been directly arranged for him by the Americans, including the captain of the destroyer behind him. Happening. He also knew that Fang Lang had a cooperative relationship with Shata, an American arms trading company. However, Fang Lang did not expect that Fang Lang would dare to speak out and lobby the US government to sell aircraft carriers to Brazil. It seems that Fang Lang''s relationship in the United States is deeper than he remembered! Actually, this is General Morais thinking too much. What Fang Lang said about lobbying the U.S. government is actually just a rhetoric, and he doesn''t really need to come forward to lobby the U.S. government. This kind of thing is exactly the job of Shata Corporation. American commercial companies want to sell some sensitive equipment to the outside world, of course they need to take the initiative to lobby the government themselves! If you can''t do this well, why should Fang Lang give up 75% of Shata Company''s shares! Fanglang doesn''t care who owns these shares. However, if you take this share, you must reflect your value. As for the cost of lobbying the government, it must be added to the sales cost and settled together! In the end, the wool comes from the sheep, and the Brazilian government pays for it. Another reason is that Fang Lang knows that a military mutual assistance treaty on the Americas in history is about to be signed. Once this treaty is signed, Brazil and the United States will be equivalent to allies with an agreement. The content of this treaty is also very simple: any country''s armed attack on an American country should be regarded as an armed attack on all American countries; countries should defend themselves individually or collectively, and assist each other. The signing of this agreement is equivalent to the entire America becoming a military alliance. If any country attacks any country in the Americas, other American countries will help this American country. Of course, this agreement does not actually have any practical significance, but it is a gesture that the American countries are willing to accept the leadership of the United States. In fact, in the Falklands War that broke out between Britain and Argentina, according to the agreement, the United States should declare war on Britain. But in fact, the United States did not even support Argentina, but instead joined the arms embargo against Argentina. From here we can see the role of this protocol. However, the existence of this agreement, no matter how the US government views this agreement, this gave Fang Lang a chance. An opportunity to acquire military equipment or technology from the United States. Even in Fang Lang''s view, the advantages of this agreement outweigh the disadvantages, even though the relationship between the United States and the Soviet Union was very tense later, which once worried the American countries very much. However, Fang Lang knew that there was no real war between the United States and the Soviet Union. In this case, Brazil can actually use this agreement to obtain some greater benefits from the United States. Of course, other countries in the Americas also have many considerations in this regard. After all, the United States has promised to give aid to American countries. General Morais certainly didn''t know Fang Lang''s thoughts, but felt that Fang Lang must have considerable backing in the United States to dare to say such words. If General Morais is an anti-American general, then Fang Lang will be in big trouble. But now and later in Brazil, whether it is the president, the minister of defense, or even the military generals, almost all of them are pro-American. That''s why Fang Lang dared to reveal to the military the image that he has a close relationship with the Americans. After listening to Fang Lang''s words, General Morais smiled heartily: "Colonel Fang, please rest assured, if you can really persuade the US government to sell us an aircraft carrier, then I will unswervingly support you as the commander of Brazil''s first aircraft carrier fleet." In the current Brazilian Navy, there is indeed no candidate more suitable for this position than Fang Lang. Although he is very young, he has outstanding military exploits and is the only admiral who has been exposed to aircraft carrier combat. Originally, his first fleet was also built to support the aircraft carrier formation. If he is not arranged to be the commander of this fleet and let another person board, he may be restrained everywhere. But this does not mean that Fang Lang can become the commander of this fleet 100%. As far as General Morais knows, there is now an officer in the Admiralty who is eyeing the position of the captain of the aircraft carrier, and is moving around to pave the way for himself. As for whether he has the idea of ????being the commander of the fleet, that''s not sure. However, this kind of thing must not be told to Fang Lang by himself. But from his personal point of view, he supports Fang Lang in this position. After all, we are colleagues in the expeditionary force, and we have a natural sense of intimacy. Unlike the other person, who is a typical old-school way of thinking, he probably doesn''t even know how the aircraft carrier fights. Today''s statement can be regarded as what he has in mind. "Good! With the support of General Morais, I believe I will be able to succeed." Seeing Fang Lang''s excited expression, he obviously didn''t hear the news, so he smiled and said: "However, for such a big matter, I can''t rely on my support alone. You also need to communicate more with your colleagues in the Navy Staff Department. Otherwise, I wont even be able to report your name, and its useless for me to support you, do you understand? " These words sounded in Fang Lang''s ears. Fang Lang only thought that General Morais was reminding him that according to the procedure, the Naval Staff Department had to be nominated before he could approve it. Didn''t think of other aspects. But this time the communication with General Morais is obviously much more relaxed and enjoyable than before. I don''t know if he left the battlefield, but General Morais'' people have become much more accommodating. It is also because my current military rank and position have been significantly improved. General Morais didn''t care whether Fang Lang understood his words, but continued to bring the topic back to the aviation industry. It is remarkable that you can think of paving the way for the aviation industry by introducing the automobile industry system. However, it is far from enough to set up a refitting factory to convert military transport aircraft into civilian airliners. Our future in Brazil must have the ability to design and manufacture jet fighters by ourselves. However, I very much agree with your idea. It is no problem to start from scratch and refit. If your company is established, please let me know. I want to have a look. " General Morais said that he would visit his company. Of course, Fang Lang welcomed it very much. This is equivalent to the Minister of Defense''s endorsement of his aircraft factory. "Your Excellency, please rest assured! For the development of the airline, I have already made a detailed plan in my heart. I plan to start with the modification of American transport aircraft and learn the experience of advanced aircraft construction. Then, starting from the manufacture of simple agricultural propeller aircraft, and after thoroughly mastering the aircraft manufacturing capabilities, began to try to make a two-seat trainer aircraft for the Air Force. If possible, I would like to enter the field of civil aviation, ensure the company''s profits by manufacturing and selling civil aviation aircraft, and then develop our own jet fighters in Brazil. " After listening to Fang Lang''s clear thinking, General Morais was even happier. He picked up the coffee on the table and took a sip: "Okay, good, really good." It seemed that the cup was not coffee, but fine wine, which made him feel a little dizzy, as if he was drunk. "Tell me what kind of help you need from me. Don''t worry, as long as I can do it, I will fully support it." Maybe I realized that I expressed my full support too many times today, and now I continue to express it verbally, which seems a bit too dry. (end of this chapter) Chapter 195: colleagues gathering Chapter 195 Gathering of Colleagues General Morais stood up, went to the bookshelf behind the desk and found a document, looked carefully and said: "Colonel Fang, I received a piece of information a week ago that a bauxite deposit with very good reserves was discovered in Aurihimina, Para State. Because it is located deep in the Amazon River, it is difficult to develop. So, the Ministry of Energy and Mining is also hesitating whether to find suitable capital to cooperate in mining the bauxite here. I know that aircraft manufacturing requires a lot of aluminum. Tomorrow, I will discuss with Mr. President that your family and the Ministry of Energy and Minerals will jointly exploit the bauxite here, so that you can ensure the lowest cost of your aluminum materials. It can also be regarded as my support for the aviation industry in Brazil. " Fang Lang didn''t expect that General Morais would bring him such a big surprise. Originally, Fang Lang was salivating at Brazil''s domestic mineral resources. However, during Vargas'' administration, the country''s control over mineral resources was very strict, and Fang Lang''s acquisition of Vale''s shares was also exchanged for shares in the artillery factory. The development prospects of aluminum mines in the future are very broad. If General Morais can really give the Fang family the opportunity to participate in the mining of aluminum mines, the Fang family will truly become a person with a mine at home. "Is this really possible? It won''t embarrass you too much, will it?" Fang Lang''s mouth was almost grinning to the back molars when he asked this interrogative sentence. Of course, Fang Lang is not the one who only makes cheap money and does not suffer losses. He has already made a decision in his heart. If this aluminum mine can really allow his family to buy shares, no matter how many shares he can buy, he will leave one-tenth of it to General Morais dry stock. "Don''t worry! I will personally come forward to talk to Mr. President about this matter, but you have to be prepared. This mine is located deep in the Amazon River, and it may require a lot of investment in the early stage. This can be regarded as not only providing you with aluminum ore, but also developing our mineral resources. " General Morais obviously thought too simple about this matter. It is not an easy task to turn bauxite into aluminum ingots, which requires a lot of electricity. Brazil is not a country with particularly developed electricity in this era. If you really want to set up a factory for smelting aluminum ore, Fang Lang''s investment will be very huge, and even need to invest in a power station. Otherwise, with the current domestic power generation capacity in Brazil, no matter which city an electrolytic aluminum plant is built in, the city will be shut down and cut off. It would be strange not to be blocked by the public to complain. However, now that General Morais provides such an opportunity, he must not give up. In Fang Lang''s impression, Brazil''s bauxite reserves account for 8.67% of the global bauxite reserves, ranking fifth in the world. The reserves are nearly three times that of the hometown. Ninety percent of Brazil''s bauxite mines are located in the Amazon region. Although Fang Lang doesn''t know the specific reserves of this bauxite mine, he believes that it will definitely not be a small mine. "Thank you so much, General, I will tell my father the good news, and let my father prepare the funds and wait for the notification from the Ministry of Energy and Mines at any time. As for the aircraft factory, please rest assured, General, I will go to Germany again in two days to see if I can bring back a few designers with experience in aircraft design from Germany to Brazil to design our own aircraft for us. " "Okay, that''s what you said. I''ll just wait and see, in my lifetime, if there is a chance to see our Brazilian-made aircraft fly into the blue sky." After hearing General Morais'' wish, Fang Lang suddenly felt a lot of pressure. Aircraft manufacturing is a systematic project, and it cannot be realized immediately with just a few words. However, propeller aircraft should not be difficult to realize. The big deal is that some parts that cannot be manufactured in Brazil will be purchased globally! Fang Lang can''t be blamed here, he didn''t tell General Morais about the excellent aircraft designer he found in Germany. Now at most, I can only be considered to know the information of these designers. If others do not come to Brazil for a day, they cannot be regarded as success. If you say it early, when others dont want to come to Brazil, you will be ashamed and ashamed. It will also leave an impression of instability on the leader, Fang Lang will not make such a low-level mistake. The meeting between the two can be said to have achieved remarkable results, and General Morais was even more delighted because he saw the hope of localization of armaments. When Fang Lang left General Morais''s office, it was almost time to get off work. Fang Lang wanted to invite General Morais to dinner. However, today is the inauguration ceremony of the new president. Tonight, the heads of government and the various parties, as well as the benefactors behind the scenes, will attend the Mr. President''s appreciation dinner, so there must be no time to have dinner with Fang Lang, so we can only go down Look for another chance. When Fang Lang left the Ministry of Defense and returned to the hotel, Colonel Tiqi was already waiting at the hotel. "Fang, hurry up and pack up and change into casual clothes. I''m going to take you to a great place today." Colonel Teach hurriedly urged as soon as he saw Fang Lang. "Isn''t it! Every time you arrive in Rio, you say you want to take me to experience the passion of a Brazilian girl, but it has never been realized. Did your conscience discover it today?" Fang Lang glanced sideways at Colonel Teach, and said with a smile. "Haha Fang, don''t look at me as a local snake in Rio, in fact, I don''t play as well as that guy Berry. I didnt even know there was such a place in Rio. After listening to Berrys description today, I couldnt wait. " "Oh! Tell me, what makes you so excited!" "Hey. Hurry up, you will know when you go. I also heard from him, but I haven''t seen it before. Hurry up." Under the constant urging of Colonel Teach, Fang Lang changed into an exquisite custom-made suit, and was dragged into the car that had been waiting at the door for a long time. The guards were also flying around for a while, and finally changed into casual clothes and protected their safety from a distance. The car made many twists and turns, and finally came to a very huge seaside manor. The security here is very tight. Standing outside the manor, you can''t see the specific situation inside, and the sight is blocked by walls and shrubs. After the inspection, the vehicle drove into the manor, and the sight suddenly opened up. The European-style building faces a private bay, dotted with tall coconut trees, and in the dark night, a bonfire is lit on the beach by the sea. A group of girls in **** swimsuits are drinking and chatting with a few people by the campfire. Fang Lang recognized at a glance that they were the naval officers he met in the Ministry of Defense today. Glanced at the direction of the European-style villa. Although the lights were bright, there were obviously no other guests. Fang Lang glanced strangely at Colonel Tiqi beside him and said: "Whose villa is this?" To be honest, Fang Lang didn''t expect that there would be such a luxurious villa in Rio de Janeiro. This made him want to buy the same villa as his home in Rio de Janeiro. After all, it is really inconvenient to stay in a hotel every time in Rio. "Haha Fang, this is not our villa, and we can''t afford such a high-end villa. I heard from Berry that this is the most upscale private club in Rio. Only one batch of guests will be received every day, and only member reservations are accepted. As for how Berry manages this place, I am not very clear. It turns out that I have heard of this place, but I have never been to it again. " Colonel Tiche looked at the crowd on the beach, his eyes glowing green. "I haven''t been here before, how do I know I''m here? I haven''t seen you detour!" Fang Lang obviously didn''t believe that he hadn''t been here. "You can''t slander me, I''m from Rio, as long as you tell me an address, there is no place I can''t find." As soon as Fang Lang suspected him, Colonel Teach swore. But Fang Lang is too lazy to worry about such boring things! The three people on the beach had already noticed their arrival and came out to welcome them. It was the three commanders-in-chief of the Brazilian naval base that I saw at the Ministry of Defense in the morning. With the addition of Fang Lang and Colonel Tichi, the officers of the five major theaters or five naval bases of the entire Brazilian Navy have arrived. It also means that, except for the captains of two battleships and a cruiser, all the powerful officers of the Brazilian Navy are present. Of course the River Fleet is not included. However, it can also be seen from here that the current Brazilian navy is really very weak, and the entire Brazilian coastline is 7,400 kilometers long. Before Fang Lang appeared, there were only four theaters, and only two destroyers in each theater could sail in the open sea. It''s no wonder that during World War II, the Americans looked down on the Brazilian Navy and only arranged for the task of laying mines. "Haha Fang, we''ve been here for a long time, and we''ve been waiting for you. Come here quickly, and I''ll introduce you to this beautiful woman." Colonel Berry stepped forward to greet the two very familiarly. While talking, he also signaled to several **** girls who were with the three of them to come forward to greet Fang Lang and the two of them. Fang Lang noticed Colonel Teach, his left and right arms were held by two hot girls, his face began to flush slightly, and he didn''t know where to put his hands. His eyes unconsciously aimed at the girl''s tall tower, and Fang Lang believed that this old boy came here for the first time. While Fang Lang was observing Colonel Teach, everyone was also observing Fang Lang''s reaction. As a result, Fang Lang took the initiative to hug the slender waists of the two girls who came up without any shyness: "I said brother, I didn''t have dinner. Your show is very good, but it can''t make me hungry!" Although the one-piece swimsuits worn by these girls are very sexy, they are too childish for Fang Lang, who has experienced the baptism of the Internet in later generations. Bikinis don''t have a single bad review. The key is that Fang Lang, as a sailor, often travels to the seashores of various countries, and has experienced celestial bathing places. How could such a small scene catch the eyes of Fang Daguan. However, Fang Lang was slightly surprised when his hand brushed the smooth skin of the girls. After carefully looking at the two girls around him, he was relieved. Fortunately, they were adults. After all, in Fang Lang''s impression, Western girls generally have more body hair, and the skin of a slightly more mature girl will not look smooth enough. Several people laughed when they saw Fang Lang so relaxed. Berry laughed and said: "We didn''t wait for you to come to order, we have already arranged for them to prepare the best Brazilian barbecue, and it will be served soon. There are unique seafood here. If you like it, ask them to come up and try it later. " In fact, Brazilian barbecue is really a good thing, and it matches the appetite of a carnivore like Fang Lang. However, the Brazilian''s seafood cooking skills really make Fang Lang not flattered. But since it''s recommended, Fang Lang certainly doesn''t mind trying it. "Then tell them to hurry up, I''m really hungry." After speaking, he looked at the two girls with healthy wheat-colored skin and said: "I''m going to be very tired tonight, and I can''t do without enough food." After hearing Fang Lang''s candid words, everyone burst into laughter. Even the girl around him smiled coquettishly, and shook Fang Lang''s arm in disbelief. Feeling the softness from Dao''s arm, Fang Lang also laughed. (end of this chapter) Chapter 196: competitors Chapter 196 Competitors Actually, several people are staying together now. Although Fang Lang is the youngest, everyone knows that Fang Lang has the highest status. If Fang Lang seems very cramped and doesn''t adapt to the current atmosphere, maybe several people will play a little bit tied up. But Fang Lang''s indifferent and frank attitude immediately relaxed the minds and bodies of several people. Even Colonel Teach, who seemed a little restrained on one side, relaxed. After noticing that Colonel Tiqi had relaxed, Fang Lang asked the girl beside him: "Tell me quietly, has my old brother come here to play before? If you let me know that he knew that he didn''t bring me to play here, I must sue him in front of my wife." Everyone knew that Fang Lang was joking. They all laughed loudly, and the girl beside him also said unabashedly: "This is the first time I''ve seen this boss, but it''s also the first time we''ve come here today, so if you ask us, we can''t give you an accurate answer!" After hearing what the girl said, Fang Lang couldn''t help but take another look. She should be eighteen or nineteen years old, with wheat-colored skin and a **** figure, a typical Brazilian beauty. The answer to this question not only pointed out that it was the first time for him to be on such an occasion, but also answered Fang Lang''s question. It seems that the little girl has a trick! Colonel Titch said with an innocent face: "I told you everything, I''m here for the first time, and you still don''t believe me. If I knew there was such a good place, I would have called you to treat me." "Okay! I believe you. It seems that if I want to come out to play in the future, I will have to find Barry. Finding you is not fun at all." Fang Lang certainly couldn''t keep making fun of Colonel Titch, and changed the subject to Berry''s body. Berry, of course, patted his chest very happily and said that if you want to find fun projects, you must find him. After a while of gags, the relationship between the few people quickly drew closer, and the strangeness that they only met today was completely gone. I can''t help but sigh that the summary of the four irons in life is really in place. Today''s occasion is obviously a process of getting acquainted with each other. It is obviously impossible for everyone who changed their military uniforms to discuss military affairs without outsiders. So, everyone is purely relaxing and getting closer to each other. After a romantic night, Fang Lang was awakened by the sunlight through the curtains early the next morning. After finally getting out of the arms of the girl beside him, he started to do morning exercises every morning. This is his habit. Morning exercises can make him energetic throughout the day. After he finished exercising and took a hot shower, several old guys got up one after another. It seems that everyone was a little tired last night. Seeing Colonel Tiqi''s embarrassed appearance holding his waist, Fang Lang laughed loudly. It made everyone laugh again. In a pleasant atmosphere, a few people, a few people have a hearty breakfast. Very tacitly did not take the girls with them, and they sat down on the deck chairs by the beach. There is no need to worry about someone eavesdropping in the open environment. Colonel Berry was the first to raise his own question: "Fang, I heard Tiqi said that you can get the new destroyer of the US military, right?" Colonel Titch smiled a little embarrassedly. The other two also looked at Fang Lang with burning eyes. After glancing at a few people, Fang Lang nodded with a smile and said: "It''s not difficult. Are you going to buy it out of your own pocket?" Hearing Fang Lang''s affirmative answer, several people all smiled, obviously very satisfied. "Of course not, but now that our five naval bases are here, what do you think of us submitting an application to the Ministry of the Navy together?" "If I still participate in it, I will be scolded. After all, my First Fleet is now equipped with the best equipment. If I still want new destroyers at this time, it will make people think it is insatiable. However, I absolutely support your ideas. We in Brazil have such a long coastline, and we cannot guarantee security at all with our strength alone. " "No, no, Fang, you misunderstood. I mean, we apply for two new destroyers for each base, and your First Fleet is short of an aircraft carrier, isn''t it? We can submit the entire addendum ship purchase plan together. Such a large warship purchase plan may even help the logistics department to lower prices to suppliers! Right! " Colonel Gordon McCoy of the El Salvador Naval Base waved his hands again and again. Fang Lang looked at several people with a smile. It seemed that everyone had heard that the Ministry of the Navy was promoting Brazil''s own aircraft carrier plan. They obviously wanted to get a ride on the aircraft carrier and submit it to the Ministry of the Navy together. If it is really possible to add eight new destroyers to an aircraft carrier, Fang Lang will certainly not refuse. After all, this is not a small business. Fang Lang certainly hopes that it can be done, so that the hope of persuading the US government will be greater. Business! Of course the bigger the better! This is Colonel Berry reminding Fang Lang in a low voice: "Fang, you have to pay attention. I heard that Colonel Marcelino Orlando, the captain of the battleship Minas Gerais, has been very active in the Ministry of the Navy recently. He wants to persuade the Ministry of the Navy to purchase a new aircraft carrier and let him serve as the aircraft carrier." long." This is really surprising news, Fang Lang was really shocked by the news. "What is this guy thinking? Does he think that aircraft carriers can act alone like battleships? Or that he wants to be the commander of the First Fleet?" Colonel Teach was the first to raise the question. The other two also had surprised expressions on their faces, obviously it was the first time they had heard such news. Fang Lang couldn''t help but look at Colonel Berry even more differently. It seems that this guy is not only more fun than everyone, but also receives this news faster than everyone else! Hearing Colonel Teach''s question, Barry said noncommittally: "It''s hard to say." As soon as he said this, everyone understood what he meant. Obviously, Colonel Orlando''s goal was indeed Fang Lang''s current position. After all, this is the most powerful naval position in Brazil now. Colonel Orlando''s seniority and relationship in the Brazilian Navy are obviously higher than Fang Lang''s. So, it is obviously not surprising to see the position of the upper wave. Fang Lang was very surprised to receive such important news today. It seems that such gatherings must be organized frequently in the future! Among the colleagues in the Ministry of the Navy, it is really Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. If Colonel Berry hadn''t revealed the news today, maybe Fang Lang would have been kept in the dark. At that time, when he has worked hard to convince the US government to agree to sell Brazil''s new aircraft carrier, he will make a wedding dress for others. But Fang Lang didn''t show very angry, he smiled, and said casually: "I''m really looking forward to it. He can persuade the Ministry of the Navy, but if he is really determined to be the first aircraft carrier captain, I don''t know if the Americans are willing to sell us the aircraft carrier." The four of them looked at each other after listening to Fang Lang''s words, and they all understood what Fang Lang meant. If another person served as the captain of the aircraft carrier, Fang Lang would have a way to make the Americans refuse to sell the aircraft carrier to Brazil. Actually, its not that difficult. After all, its very difficult to achieve something, but its very easy to destroy it. At this time, Fang Lang couldn''t help but feel a sense of crisis in his heart. It seems that his rapid rise should have touched the interests of many people. Since Colonel Orlando can have this idea, how can you ensure that others don''t have the same idea? Maybe there are the same people among the people sitting here, I cant say for sure! It seems that I have to take a closer look at my basic situation in the navy. Otherwise, maybe one day, someone would steal the tower while I was outside. "Fang, I think you should be more careful. As far as I know, although Orlando is like a proud rooster, as the captain of a battleship directly under the General Staff of the Navy, his relationship with the Ministry of the Navy is stronger than ours. Maybe it is really possible for him to operate successfully! Even if the United States is unwilling to provide us with advanced aircraft carriers, maybe he will go to the British! You must know that his battleship Minas Gerais was made in the UK, and he often sails to the UK for maintenance. Could this guy have already found a suitable aircraft carrier in the UK? " The relationship between Colonel Dizhi and Fang Lang is still relatively strong, and he directly expressed his thoughts. Hearing that Orlando had a close relationship with the British Navy, Fang Lang was moved. If he remembered correctly, Brazil''s first aircraft carrier was indeed the British Giant class. It was the Avenger, which had just entered service in the UK in January 1945. However, this aircraft carrier was only purchased in 1956, and then refitted for four years. It was not until the end of 1960 that the refit was completed and joined the Brazilian Navy. The most important thing is that this aircraft carrier is called Minas Gerais. Thinking of this, Fang Lang had to start taking this matter seriously. Obviously, without his intervention, although the captain of Brazil''s first aircraft carrier does not know if he is Colonel Orlando, he is obviously inseparable from him. Listening to people''s persuasion to eat enough, Fang Lang is not an arrogant person, so he nodded and said: "You are right, I really should take this guy seriously. Man Berry, thanks for the reminder! Reporting together, count me in. We jointly applied for an aircraft carrier and eight new destroyers in the name of five naval bases. I believe the Admiralty will take our opinion seriously. " This can be considered as an agreement that everyone has reached an agreement to let the destroyer get on the car of the aircraft carrier and apply together. Since the Ministry of the Navy plans to equip an aircraft carrier, it is impossible to approve even one destroyer that cannot be applied for together with the aircraft carrier! Even if each naval base approves one, everyone will still make money. Everyone looked at each other as soon as they heard Fang Lang''s words, and laughed. Fang Lang stretched out his hand, and everyone folded their hands on top of each other, holding me tightly together. This time, the purpose of the party was achieved. Through this gathering, Fang Lang understood the importance of communicating with his naval colleagues. Immediately after returning to the hotel, Fang Lang found Mr. Redondo, General Manager of Global Trade Brazil. The main reason is that the Fangyuan Group does not have any projects in Rio de Janeiro, and there is no person in charge in Rio. Therefore, Fang Lang''s work in Rio is usually handed over to Redondo. After spreading the news to the Japanese last time that President Vargas wanted to surrender to Japan, Redondo had completely gained Fang Lang''s trust. Now the work in Brazil is also doing well. A large number of local Brazilian businessmen, large and small, purchase various machinery and equipment through global trade channels in Europe and the United States, and build various factories. Under Fang Lang''s instruction, Global Trade used its network in Europe and the United States to recommend some profitable projects to Brazilian businessmen. Not only purchasing equipment and selling products for entrepreneurs in Brazil. Also began to disseminate business information, provide business consulting, and conduct business training for entrepreneurs. Many Brazilians who have money but no suitable investment projects have found their investment direction. It even provides a full set of services for entrepreneurs in Brazil, so that as long as these entrepreneurs are willing to invest money, they can get comprehensive guidance on global trade, from what kind of factory to open, what kind of equipment to purchase, how to produce, how to manage, The produced products are purchased by Global Trading. The package of assistance projects has given Global Trade an unparalleled influence among small and medium-sized enterprises in Brazil. Now the rich people in Brazil know that if they have money but no good projects, they can go to Global Trading, and they will teach you how to start a factory and how to make money. (end of this chapter) Chapter 197: investment consulting firm Chapter 197 Investment Advisory Firms Global Trade''s assistance to Brazilian SMEs is of course not free. The cooperation method is very flexible, and joint ventures can be established. Investors pay for it, and Global Trading provides projects, plans, and management. Generally, the global trade of this kind of project will occupy more than 30% of the shares. This ratio is an acceptable ratio for most entrepreneurs in Brazil who are interested in entering the industrial manufacturing field. Another form is the form of full charging, which divides the entire link and charges one item at a time. For example, if you dont know what industry you want to work in, you can ask a professional consultant to provide you with advice, which requires a fee. Procure equipment through Global Trade, and Global Trade''s quotation will be higher than other companies. However, Global Trade''s complete after-sales service is unmatched by other companies. It will teach your workers to produce qualified products. If the enterprise needs skill training, Global Trade can also provide it. In short, to start a business, find Universal. It has become the consensus of small and medium businessmen in Brazil. At first, Fang Lang arranged for Mr. Redondo to start this business, also to quickly build a group of small and medium-sized enterprises in Brazil and improve Brazil''s industrial foundation. I never expected it to be so successful. "Boss, nice to meet you." Redondo has not changed at all, his figure is still the same thin and tall, but his spirit is very confident, maybe this is the effect of giving lectures to others frequently! Fang Lang pointed to the stool beside him, motioned for Redondo to sit down, handed him a cigar and said: "Mr. Redondo, I have two things for you to do." I dont know if its because the reason for spreading the news last time was that in Redondos mind, the young boss in front of him made him a little afraid. Hearing that the boss had something for him to do, he quickly sat upright and said: "Please order!" Seeing Lei Dongdo''s appearance, Fang Lang leaked a kind smile and said: "Don''t be nervous, this time the matter is very simple. I should have asked my assistant to do it, but considering that you are more familiar with the situation here in Rio, I ask you." Leidondos expression remained unchanged and he said seriously: "It is my honor to serve the boss, please give me instructions, and I will get it done for you right away." "Things are very simple, the first is that I may come to Rio de Janeiro often in the future, and I want you to help me find a residence with a beautiful environment here. The environment should be good, preferably by the sea; the building area should be large enough, because I may often need to entertain guests; it is best to have a safe and private location. If there is no suitable place, we will buy a place and we will build it ourselves. " Actually, it doesn''t matter if Fang Lang doesn''t buy a house. After all, every time he comes to Rio, the hotel where he stays can be reimbursed by the army. However, after experiencing the luxurious manor for one night yesterday, Fang Lang felt that it is interesting to have a big manor of his own. He is not short of money, and he feels more comfortable living in a home of his own. After listening to Fang Lang''s words, Lei Dongdo pondered for a while, his eyes lit up and said: "Boss, I know that there is a place that is very suitable for your requirements, but it may be a little far from the urban area, but there is absolutely no need to worry about safety. Just at the foot of a mountain not far from the Rio Naval Base, there is a luxurious manor during the Brazilian Empire. The architectural style is Baroque and the area is very large. As far as I know, the mountains behind the manor belong to this manor, and the gate of the manor is about five kilometers away from the naval base. There is a small yacht marina by the sea, and there are about three kilometers of white sandy beaches by the sea. The specific owner of this manor needs to be investigated to find out, but as far as I know, no one has lived in this manor for a long time. There are only a few workers in charge of manor sanitation living there, and some farmers on the back mountain often go to work. " "Oh! How far is it from the hotel we are in now?" "No more than twenty kilometers." "Come on, let''s go and have a look." After hearing Redondo''s description, Fang Lang couldn''t wait any longer. This was also the first property he bought himself. Under the protection of the guards, the two drove to the place Redondo said. "Redondo, I heard that the consulting business you are doing is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people! It has a lot of influence among Brazilian businessmen!" On the way, Fang Lang asked about the business situation of some of Lei Dongduo''s companies, although the assistants would organize these situations into a book and report to him. However, there is still no clear communication and understanding with the main person in charge. "Yes boss, now we have supported nearly 20 medium-sized enterprises in Rio with an investment scale of nearly one million US dollars, and more than 60 small enterprises with an investment of less than 100,000 US dollars. This number is growing every day. " Speaking of his work, Redondo is also very proud. "Oh! How many of them have our shares?" "We hold shares in eight medium-sized companies, and forty-two small companies." This number stunned Fang Lang. It didn''t mean that the number was too small, but that Fang Lang felt that the number was too much. If Global Trade continued to manage it, problems might arise. After thinking for a while, Fang Lang said: "Mr. Redondo, what do you think of our consulting project?" "Boss, this is definitely a genius idea." "I want to separate this project and set up an investment consulting company. Are you interested in being the boss?" Redondo obviously didn''t expect Fang Lang to have such an idea suddenly, but he was soon relieved. After all, the current trading company is indeed prone to confusion when doing this business. Recently, his focus has been on this side, and many of the original businesses have been somewhat overwhelmed. After thinking seriously for a while, Redondo asked: "Boss, what is the specific constitution of this investment consulting company? How big is it?" "This is an idea I just came up with. Initially, I plan to establish a new company jointly with the Brazilian Development Bank and Global Trade Brazil Branch. The main business of the company is investment consulting, which is what we are doing now, but I hope to be able to do it in a more detailed and professional way. Under the banner of this company, a special asset management company will also be established to be responsible for managing the situation of our joint-stock company. If companies that do well in the later stage, we can even operate them to go public, then our investment consulting company will be very promising. " In fact, there are many such companies in later generations, and they are an important part of the financial industry. The business scope of investment consulting companies generally includes: investment consulting, investment management, asset management, venture capital, industrial investment, marketing planning, corporate image planning, business consulting, corporate management consulting, intellectual property agency, etc. For example, McKinsey, Accenture, Deloitte, Bain, etc., which are famous in later generations. Of course, these companies have begun to appear in this era, so Fang Lang''s idea is actually not considered creative. Fang Lang''s words obviously moved Lei Dongduo. He is an American and understands how profitable a company will be if it goes public. The prospect of such a company even exceeds that of global trade. Thinking of this, he no longer hesitated: Boss, I am very happy to work in this new company. Fang Lang originally thought that Lei Dongduo would go back and think about it, but he didn''t expect him to agree directly, patted him on the shoulder and said: "Very wise choice! I believe you will not regret it." Of course, Redondo will be directly responsible for the rest of the matter, and Fang Lang does not need to participate too much. He only needs to notify the Brazilian Development Bank to arrange personnel to participate. Soon, the two arrived at the manor that Redondo mentioned. Because the gate of the manor was locked, they could only get out of the car and walk around into the manor from the beach. Lang saw the situation of the manor from a distance. This is a building with a history of at least two hundred years. The exterior wall of the entire building is carved from marble. From a distance, it looks like an extremely luxurious pavement. The building is three stories high, with a front width of more than 100 meters, and the exact depth cannot be seen clearly. There are two rows of long marble sculptures on both sides of the main entrance, with a strong artistic atmosphere. White marble has traces of years of erosion, which looks a little mottled. The whole building is as luxurious as a palace under the sunlight. Fang Lang''s first feeling was that it was too high-profile and not suitable for him to live in. But the second thing Fang Lang wanted Lei Dongdo to do was to find a place to build a naval club, which would be used as a place for important officials from the military and political circles to exchange feelings. This place is obviously very suitable! Walked along the beach for a while, and could see the side of the building from a distance. At this moment, Fang Lang''s heart was only deeply shocked, and he looked at Lei Dongdo beside him and said: "This is not the palace of King Pedro I!" "Huh? This should not be the case. I didn''t ask who it is." Redondo obviously didn''t know who the owner of this building was, but Colonel Teach should know. However, Fang Lang is not going to let Colonel Tiqi handle this matter. After setting up a club here in the future, he doesn''t want people to know that he is the owner of the club. "You said that the land around here belongs to this manor, right?" "Yes, boss!" "I''ll leave it to you. Find his owner and buy it. But this place is too luxurious, and it''s not bad to operate as a hotel. If you live in it, it''s really too luxurious. There are at least two hundred rooms here." Seeing that the boss was satisfied with this place, Redondo was also relieved. As for whether he could buy this place, he was not worried. After all, as long as the money is in place, is there anything that cannot be bought? "Okay, boss. What about your manor?" "The environment here is very good. Find another piece of land near here. I will build a Su family garden here." In Fang Lang''s mind, he still prefers Chinese-style buildings, especially the pavilions and pavilions in Su''s Garden. Fang Lang really has a soft spot. Especially when you think about the kung fu tea set in the pavilion, and the small red clay stove to boil water and make tea, you will feel relaxed and comfortable. More importantly, it can bring some Chinese elements to Brazil, so that Brazilians will subtly start to like this style. "Su''s Garden?" Redondo had a question mark on his face, obviously touching his blind spot of knowledge. Fang Lang smiled and said: "You only need to buy a piece of land of five or six hectares nearby, and I will arrange a special master to come and build it." Think of the huge mahogany in the Brazilian Amazon jungle, which is a perfect match for the construction of Su''s garden. Seeing that Fang Lang had made a decision, Lei Dongdo stopped talking. (end of this chapter) Chapter 198: banquet sir Chapter 198 Feast for the Chief After leaving this luxurious manor, Fang Lang separated from Mr. Radia Redondo, because he had already made an appointment to have lunch with Rear Admiral Friedrich Crook, Chief of Staff of the Naval General Staff. Fang Lang didn''t know any good restaurants in Rio, but the last time I ate with General Leta at the Olim restaurant, I felt pretty good. This time, I made an appointment directly here. As a subordinate, Fang Lang didn''t wait long in the restaurant, and General Crook was escorted by the guards to the restaurant door soon. "General Crook, it''s a great honor to invite you to have lunch, please." Today''s General Crook is wearing plain clothes, and the gold-rimmed glasses on his eyes are the same pair that Fang Lang saw last time. It may be because of the casual clothes. Fang Lang feels that General Crook looks a lot more casual today. There was an unlit cigar in his mouth, as if he was chewing. This was in great contrast to his more gentle appearance, and Fang Lang was in a daze for a while. However, Fang Lang always remembered that Colonel Parisi told himself that General Crook was a person who paid great attention to military appearance and discipline. So even though Fang Lang was wearing casual clothes at this time, he still stood very straight and cleaned himself up very neatly. This obviously made General Crook very satisfied, he smiled and patted Fang Lang''s shoulder and said: "Okay, you don''t need to be so formal. Now we are in a private occasion. Everyone is wearing casual clothes. Don''t let others see your identity at a glance." Seeing General Crook''s appearance, Fang Lang didn''t dare to really relax completely. Although Fang Lang didn''t like this state, the superiors liked it, so he could only carry it. After all, I am not familiar with General Crook, and this is the second meeting. After listening to General Morais''s words yesterday, Fang Lang thought that since he came to Rio, he also wanted to get in touch with his superiors, so he invited General Crook to dinner. Unexpectedly, the other party agreed without hesitation, which was beyond Fang Lang''s expectation. Since the leader accepted your banquet, it means that the relationship between the two may be closer. Fang Lang is of course very happy. Soon the two came to the box and sat down, and the guards were eating in the hall outside the box. Before Fang Lang opened his mouth to find a topic, General Crook had already taken the initiative to say: "This time, your family''s auto industry system has made a lot of noise! ??I heard a lot of people discussing it yesterday!" Hearing that General Crook took the initiative to mention the automobile industry, Fang Lang thought to himself, it could not be the general who wants to get involved! However, this is also normal. No one grows up drinking dew. It is a good thing to have demand. "Oh! Your Excellency General''s family also has a shareholding? Please tell me who it is, and I will arrange shares for him immediately." General Crook was taken aback when he heard Fang Lang''s words, was he so blatant? When I asked for a bribe? Fearing that Fang Lang would misunderstand, he shook his head and said: "Fang, you misunderstood, my family has always been fishing shrimp boats for a living, but they don''t have the strength to go ashore to participate in this kind of business. So, I heard the news at the dinner yesterday, so I asked you about the situation. " General Crook''s words reminded Fang Lang of a very interesting thing, the shrimp boat catching lobsters. Brazil almost had a big war with France because of lobster fishing. Although there was no fight in the end, this incident directly led to the 1982 United Nations Convention on the Seas. Things have to start in 1961, when a group of French fishermen came to the waters of northeastern Brazil in order to catch lobsters, which made the Brazilian fishermen feel very uncomfortable. Seeing that the lobsters were caught by the French one by one, the Brazilian fishermen hurriedly reported the matter to the authorities. When the leaders of the Brazilian Navy heard this, it''s okay? Immediately sent two warships to warn the French fishermen. Now the French quit. Why do you have warships in Brazil, don''t we in France? So, in February 1962. France sent the destroyer Tartu to the northeast coast of Brazil. As a result, the French destroyer was spotted and tracked by the Brazilian Air Force just 100 nautical miles into the disputed waters. After receiving the information, the Brazilian Navy immediately dispatched the aircraft carrier Minas Gerais, a light cruiser, a destroyer unit, a submarine and a patrol ship to the sea area where the French warship was located. The navies of the two countries stared at each other for several hours. Finally, the French destroyer gave up and turned its bow to leave the disputed waters. In order to save face, France sent a task force to Brazil at the end of February, including an aircraft carrier, an air defense cruiser, two destroyers, five frigates, and a supply ship. Facing the tense situation, the Brazilian military launched further operations. Several squadrons equipped with B17 bombers were urgently dispatched to Recife Airport in northeast Brazil to stand by. Brazil''s navy has also launched large-scale exercises near the northeast coast for several consecutive days, and even the Brazilian army has been mobilized urgently to the border of French Guiana to stand by. Once the fight started, they planned to drive directly into French Guia. Fortunately, the leaders of the two countries calmed down later, and they didn''t really shoot out. They just transferred to the international court to fight the lawsuit. The final result is that Brazil expanded its exclusive economic zone to 200 nautical miles, while France''s 26 fishing boats can continue to fish in the original area for five years. Because of the lobster-triggered war, the United Nations Convention on the Seas and the concept of a 200-nautical mile exclusive economic zone were finally brought about. Hearing that General Crooks family lived on shrimp fishing, I couldnt help but start to murmur in my heart. Its not because of you that the Brazilian navy went to war with France so recklessly, right? Has personality, I like it. The key is to prove once again that the French are really cowards. "Hey! General Crook, I didn''t expect that your family also makes a living from fishing, so we have more opportunities to cooperate. Isnt Colonel Parisi, the former naval commander of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, retired? Mr. Parisi and I partnered to open a fishing company. Now the company has more than forty fishing boats, and they are all the latest trawlers. How about the three of us cooperate to make it bigger and stronger? " Originally, Fang Lang came to see General Crook today without any clear goal. He just wanted to get in touch with each other. He didn''t expect that there would be a chance for cooperation! Then how can this be let go? We became business partners with General Crook, isn''t it easy to talk about a lot of things? And General Crook obviously didn''t expect Fang Lang to be so powerful, so he hit the snake and the stick directly. This pressing posture is a bit out of breath! Quickly coughed twice and changed the subject: "Cough, cough. Fang, I don''t care about the family business, and it''s useless if you tell me. Go out to dinner with you today! Mainly at the dinner yesterday, General Morais told me that you have a way to persuade the US Navy to sell us an aircraft carrier? Are you sure? " Hehe, it doesnt matter if you dont care about the business at home! This is better, it seems that Colonel Parisi should visit General Crook''s family. I don''t believe that you can''t take down your family. As long as you have a business relationship with the family of Your Excellency the General, wouldn''t the rest be easy? As for the aircraft carrier! "Your Excellency General, if we want the United States to agree to sell us an aircraft carrier, we may need to spend some money to convince the U.S. Congress. This may not be an immediate success. But I heard today, isnt someone in our Admiralty able to get an aircraft carrier from the UK? Maybe it will cost us less? " When General Crook heard these words, it was a bit unpleasant. He also knew that Fang Lang had apparently received the wind that someone was seeking the position of captain of an aircraft carrier, which meant a bit of embarrassment. In fact, in General Crook''s mind, Fang Lang is still very capable, and has actual combat experience, and his combat effectiveness has been verified by world wars. His biggest weakness is that he is too young, and he is a little worried that Brazil''s most powerful navy Is it appropriate to put the power in his hands. Orlando, on the other hand, is the exact opposite of Fang Lang. He is of the right age and has sufficient qualifications. He has been serving as a battleship captain in the Brazilian Navy. The only thing he lacks is that he has no actual combat experience. It cannot be said that there is no actual combat experience at all, after all, escorting is also an actual combat mission! It''s a pity that he has no experience in killing enemies, and his combat effectiveness has not been verified. This has kept General Crook from making up his mind who to support. Since one of them took the initiative to lead the topic to this in a few days, he didn''t like to hide it, so he just opened it up and let this guy talk about it. "You don''t have to beat around the bush to test me, kid, someone did propose to seek an aircraft carrier from the UK, and wanted to be the commander of the aircraft carrier. how? Are you dissatisfied? " Hearing General Crook directly clarify the words, and the obviously provocative words, Fang Lang smiled, understanding that at least General Crook had chosen that side. At this time, he was in no hurry, and he called the waiter to order, and then handed the menu to General Crook and said: "Come on, Your Excellency General, let''s order food first, and chat while eating." directly disrupted General Crook''s rhythm, and immediately made the expression on General Crook''s face change again and again. Then he laughed, looking at Fang Lang with admiration in his eyes. Good boy, neither humble nor overbearing, has the means to speak and do things, is a powerful person. Don''t worry about it, and start ordering dishes with peace of mind. After both of them ordered, Fang Lang took a sip of red wine before saying unhurriedly: "Your Excellency, my First Fleet can be regarded as a task force. It has a navy, a marine corps, and now there are reconnaissance planes assigned to cruisers. If you add an aircraft carrier, you will have a real air force. Do you think this is a battleship captain who only has naval service experience can complete the transfer? Not to mention other things, I deeply realized how desperate the navy is when facing an enemy with air supremacy in the Pacific naval battle. For this reason, I desperately learned aviation tactics from the Americans, how to fly a plane, how to maintain an aircraft, learn aircraft tactics, and learn aircraft scheduling. I can now say that there is no one in the whole of Brazil who is better suited to command this task force. I was born in the Army, so I know Army tactics, and even my Marine Corps training syllabus was written by me. In the Navy, I am the only naval commander in the entire Brazilian Navy with a record of actual combat sinking. Air Force As I said just now, I understand the tactics and command of the Air Force. I don''t trust my competitors to have the same strength as me. " Sometimes, some things, if you don''t fight, you will give up. Fang Lang is not an indisputable person. He is confident that he is better than Orlando, and there is no reason for the opponent to steal the tower. (end of this chapter) Chapter 199: Misunderstand Chapter 199 Misunderstanding After listening to Fang Lang''s words, General Crook fell into a deep silence for a while. Brazilians are not as reserved as Chinese people, and they don''t like to hide their words. This is the second contact between Crook and Fang Lang. To be honest, they don''t know much about Fang Lang. But today he was really moved by Fang Lang. Because Fang Lang is right, Fang Lang''s record has been confirmed by him, and his rank promotion order was announced by him himself, including the appointment of the commander of the First Fleet, which was also issued by himself. Looking at the sharp-tongued, confident and calm young man in front of him, it made him feel old for a while. General Crook asked strangely after thinking about it: "Why are you unwilling to let Mr. Orlando be the captain of the aircraft carrier? Having him as the captain does not affect your continuing to be the commander of the First Fleet! We are very aware of the advantages you mentioned, so we never thought of removing you as the commander of the First Fleet! You are still the supreme commander of this aircraft carrier battle group! " Fang Lang was taken aback by what he said, what''s going on? Wait, let me think about it, General Morais expressed his support for being the commander of the fleet, and he was the commander of the fleet in the first place! Colonel Berry also said that Orlando wanted to compete for the captain of the aircraft carrier. It seems that he has never said that he wants to be the commander of the fleet! Couldn''t it be that I made an own mistake! But the other party is the captain of a battleship and wants to transfer to his own aircraft carrier battle group to serve as the captain of an aircraft carrier. In this way, I will be able to listen to my own command in the future. No, even the captain of an aircraft carrier cannot accept this guy. But this guy treats himself with this attitude, shouldnt he really just want to be the captain of an aircraft carrier? and many more! This guy doesn''t think that the captain of the aircraft carrier is the commander of the aircraft carrier battle group, does he? Is there a problem with my understanding, or is there a problem with Orlando''s understanding! Thinking about the position of the captain of the battleship of the opponent, it should be possible to understand the job responsibilities of the captain of the aircraft carrier as the commander of the battle group. It seems that there is indeed some misunderstanding in this matter. Of course, Fang Lang will not explain this misunderstanding with General Crook. touched his nose, did not say that he might have misunderstood, smiled and said: "Your Excellency, I believe you should be very clear that the main job of an excellent aircraft carrier commander is the operation and training of the aircraft carrier. As for the content of this operation and training, is it similar to that of a battleship?" These words reminded General Crook that the operation and training of the aircraft carrier are all about the aircraft. This guy in Orlando has been fighting for the position of the captain of the aircraft carrier, and I have never heard of him taking the initiative to learn about aircraft scheduling. relevant knowledge! Before waiting for General Crook to answer, Fang Lang continued: "The most important thing is that the fighting style of battleships is completely different from that of aircraft carriers. If a commander of a battleship is to command an aircraft carrier, there will be big problems. If I had to choose, I would rather choose an aviation commander in the Air Force as the captain, and it would be more reliable than a battleship commander. " In fact, this is also the reason why American aircraft carrier commanders must have Air Force service experience. One more thing to explain here is that when an aircraft carrier battle group is fighting, the command ship is often not an aircraft carrier. Of course, each country is governed differently. At least our country has a dedicated command destroyer. After all, during the war, aircraft carriers are the primary targets of enemy aircraft, which is very dangerous. If a bad command is directly hit, it will be over. The command destroyer will not be so obvious as the target of enemy aircraft, and can command the actions of the entire battle formation very calmly. The United States is also operating in the same way, and the French command seems to be on an aircraft carrier. In a more extreme situation, the headquarters is even placed in the submarine. When Fang Lang said these words, it was equivalent to explicitly refusing to allow Orlando to serve as the captain of the aircraft carrier of his First Fleet. As a direct leader, he disagreed with him to take up this position. peaceful situation. General Crook immediately rejected the idea of ??Orlando serving as the captain of the aircraft carrier. "Then you mean, you still want to be the captain of the aircraft carrier and the commander of the fleet at the same time, right?" Originally, in General Crook''s mind, Fang Lang and Orlando were the two candidates. Now that Fang Lang has rejected Orlando, of course only Fang Lang himself is left. Actually, after Fang Lang discovered that he might have made an own mistake just now, he didn''t care much about whether he was the captain of the aircraft carrier. However, so many things have been said before, and Orlando has been denied. Instead of letting the Ministry of the Navy arrange an aircraft carrier captain who is not familiar with him, it is better to cultivate it slowly by himself. Moreover, Fang Lang himself knew in his heart that although he had studied flight scheduling and management in Okinawa. However, there is no real practical experience. If you want yourself to be able to truly assume the responsibility of the commander of the aircraft carrier battle group. The captain of an aircraft carrier is a post that must be experienced. "Yes, Your Excellency General, to be honest, I have studied flight dispatching in Okinawa. But I have never experienced actually commanding aircraft on an aircraft carrier. If I directly command the aircraft carrier battle group, I am worried that I will have shortcomings. Therefore, I must personally serve as the commander of an aircraft carrier in order to fully digest and absorb what I have learned. Become a military commander who is really capable of commanding aircraft carrier battle group battles. " After saying this sentence, it can be regarded as once again explaining the necessity of Fang Lang''s need to serve as the captain of an aircraft carrier. After all, a commander of an aircraft carrier battle group who is not familiar with the operating rules of an aircraft carrier may indeed have problems. General Crook also understands why Fang Lang must serve as the captain of the aircraft carrier himself. "You are right, it seems that only you can be the captain of this aircraft carrier. After all, this is our first aircraft carrier in Brazil. There is a process of learning and exploring many things. In the past, all of us may have taken this position too much for granted. Okay, today''s meal is quite rewarding. Do not worry! I support you as the captain of this aircraft carrier. But you have to find out a path that suits us as soon as possible, and then train a captain of our own aircraft carrier. You can''t always hold the second job, and don''t give the people below room to improve, right! " Fang Lang was completely relieved of General Crook''s direct statement. With the approval of the two giants, General Crook and General Morais, I believe that the position of the captain of this aircraft carrier should be stable. This can be regarded as not letting sand get mixed in. After the bauxite and fishery companies have drawn in the relationship between the two generals, Fang Lang believes that many things will be easier to handle. At that time, the first fleet should be able to truly become his own fleet. There will never be a chance for people to mix sand in it again. As General Crook said, today''s meal is really rewarding. Next, General Crook took the initiative to ask, Fang Lang''s experience in Okinawa, why did he feel that the navy without air supremacy would feel desperate. After some conversation, General Crook admired Fang Lang even more, and became more eager to own an aircraft carrier of his own country. and Fang Lang respectively did not forget to remind: "Since the matter here is finished, we must hurry up and go to the United States to implement the aircraft carrier. I hope to hear good news from you soon." Fang Lang''s stay in Rio is indeed no big deal. Now Fang Lang doesn''t need to participate in the automobile industry or the equipment of the tank division. And now there is a more urgent thing waiting for Fang Lang''s participation, that is, news from Germany that the guy named Paul may soon start making treasures. How can this kind of treasure discovery be done without my own participation! Now that the automobile industry has not cost the Fang family money, it is time to return to Germany to restart negotiations on the introduction of the machine tool industry. Therefore, Fang Lang returned to Natal after submitting a business trip application to the Ministry of the Navy again. Now Natal has changed a lot when Fang Lang left, and the cement road on the main road is under construction. The streets are full of police patrolling. For example, when Fang Lang first came to Natal, it felt a lot more prosperous. Now there are people wandering on Natal Street at night. At least it shows that the security situation in Natal has been recognized by the local people. Because the new president is now sworn in, which means the end of military control, Fang Lang has to hand over with the city government before he can leave Natal to do his own business. Of course, there are actually no specific matters to be handed over. After all, Fang Lang did not participate too much in the management of the city government except for rectifying the police system at the beginning. The police system that has been reorganized is still managed by the city government, but an additional training system has been added. Early the next morning, Fang Lang, who had finished handling military affairs, drove to the city government building under the protection of several guard vehicles. Mayor Dursley and Speaker Jada Brooke have been waiting outside the government building early. Seeing Fang Lang''s convoy arriving, the two hurried forward to greet them. After a few pleasantries outside the city hall, they went directly to the meeting room of the city hall building. "Mr. Mayor Dursley, Mr. Speaker Brooke, congratulations on your re-election as mayor and speaker of Natal." "This is all thanks to Colonel Fang''s governance of Natal, the elimination of gangsters, so that people are no longer oppressed. We now have our own sugar, leather, textile, salt and other industries in Natal. Because industry requires a lot of manpower, people who used to have nothing to do have now entered the factory to work. After everyone has a job, all the credit will be counted on our heads. That''s why we easily elected the new mayor and speaker. In fact, we know that these are all thanks to you. " Mayor Dursley gave Fang Lang all the credit very modestly. Speaker Brook also nodded repeatedly. Fang Lang saw the performance of the two, smiled and said: "This is what you deserve, and I just provided a development idea. Aren''t you the one who implements the specific implementation! It shows that your efforts have been recognized by people." As for the specific reasons for the election of the two, Fang Lang doesn''t care. After all, both of them are local political families, and he doesn''t care even if they take turns as mayor and speaker. (end of this chapter) Chapter 200: Handover Chapter 200 Handover Fang Lang, as the highest officer of the Natal garrison, has a very huge influence in the local area even after the end of military control. So, it is impossible and dare not offend Fang Lang for the two of them. Besides, the two of them now opened a sugar factory and a tannery with the help of Fangyuan Group. Partners who can make them money, they have no time to curry favor, how could they offend Fang Lang! Speaker Brook also quickly stated: "Colonel Fang, please rest assured that even if Natal is now under military control, we will remain steadfast and continue to advance in accordance with the development plan you made for us. Surely your efforts will not be in vain. " This statement surprised Fang Lang a little, but at the same time he was very pleased, showing that at least he recognized Fang Lang''s plan for Natal. "Haha. Then I feel relieved. I hope that Natal will get better and better under the leadership of the two in the future, and become the third largest city in Brazil after Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo." Fang Lang didn''t blush when he said the beautiful words. When the other two heard this, their expressions were quite exciting, and Mr. Mayor Dursley''s face blushed faintly without knowing whether it was excitement or embarrassment. After the touting was over, Fang Lang also began to talk about today''s topic. "Now Mr. President has been sworn in, and you have also become the new mayor and speaker through re-election. From today on, I will officially exchange all the government affairs in Natal to the two. However, here I have two things I still want to ask you two. First of all, the investment of Fangyuan Group in Natal will continue, and I hope to get the full support of the two. Believe me, this will also bring good achievements to the two. " After listening to Fang Lang''s words, the two nodded repeatedly. Of course, they would not refuse to invest in their territory. "Secondly, regarding the resettlement of Chinese immigrants, I hope that the two of them will also take corresponding responsibilities. Natal is still a small city. If you want to develop industry, you must have a lack of population. My hometown is very chaotic now, so we will definitely continue to immigrate to Brazil, and Riogna Norte will be an important destination. I hope the two can treat my compatriots well. able to facilitate their life in Brazil. " After looking at each other, the two expressed their opinions again and again, saying that there is no problem. "In return, I will set up a civil aviation airport in Natal, and allocate a runway from the Natal Naval Base as Natal''s civil airport runway. If you two are interested, you can also participate." This news is obviously very sudden. Once the Natal Naval Base allocates a runway as a civil aviation runway, it means that the Natal Naval Base will become a military-civilian dual-use airport. Natal''s traffic conditions will be improved unprecedentedly. Now the two have understood the importance of traffic through the rectification of the roads in Natal''s urban area. Naturally understand what it means once the opening of this air route, and after looking at each other, the two quickly expressed their gratitude and expressed their willingness to participate. As for turning the airport remembered by the navy into a military-civilian airport, Fang Lang felt that there would definitely be no problem after applying to Mr. President. After all, this airport was originally left by the Americans, and the naval base does not need such a large airport. At the same time, the aircraft in the aircraft carrier formation will use this airport occasionally at most. At the same time, this is also Fang Lang''s attempt to enter the civil aviation market. Natals geographical location is very superior. Once it becomes a civilian airport, many flights from the United States to Africa may choose to stop here because of the flight range of the aircraft that needs to rest and refuel halfway. There are no particularly developed countries in Africa, and there are not many flights, but the whole of Africa is also a very large market. At that time, just providing services to these planes will be able to support the airport. Dont underestimate the airport service company. The supply of fuel, maintenance, food, etc. is not a small business. After a simple negotiation, several people quickly reached an agreement that the airport will be operated by Fangyuan Group, which owns 51% of the company''s shares. The two companies together hold 10% of the shares, and the remaining 39% of the shares belong to the naval base. As the person in charge of the naval base, Fang Lang is equivalent to controlling 90% of the shares of the airport service company. Even if he retires in the future, Fangyuan Group also owns an absolute controlling stake in Natal Airport. The handover of work was quite smooth, and everyone''s interests reached a consensus. After leaving the city hall, Fang Lang visited the Brazilian Development Bank opposite the city hall, and the office building of the Rio Grande Norte State Police Headquarters next to the bank. Because the development of the automobile industry did not use the gold shipped back from Japan, Fang Lang saw the remelted gold bricks in the bank''s vault. The dazzling golden light almost dazzled Fang Lang''s eyes for a while, and he began to think about how much he would gain from going to Germany this time. In the bank''s office, Fang Lang explained to his father the next time, and arranged for assistants to start registering airport service companies, light weapons manufacturing companies, and aircraft manufacturing companies, as well as establishing a bauxite development company that negotiated with the Ministry of Energy and Mines. . At the same time, after checking the map, Fang Lang and his father Fang Xinshan discussed the construction of a large electrolytic aluminum factory in Natal for a very simple reason. Because the other side of Natal is Guinea, the world''s largest bauxite producer, Fang Lang plans to establish a bauxite mining enterprise jointly established with the government in the future to go abroad to mine bauxite in Guinea and sell it after returning home for processing. Perhaps with Fang Lang''s intervention, this electrolytic aluminum factory will become one of the world''s leading aluminum suppliers. The electrolytic aluminum plant consumes a lot of electricity, Fang Lang had to consider whether it is necessary to urge the government to build a power station in Natal. Although the climate in Natal is dry and the water resources are not very rich, its location is just on the right bank of the Potenge River. For the construction of a hydropower station in a place with a river, it is indeed the first choice for power shortage. As a result, Fang Lang had to find Mayor Dursley and Speaker Brooke again. When they heard that the government should fund the construction of a hydropower station on the Potenghe River, they didn''t know how to answer for a while. However, considering that Natal will become an industrial city in the future, power resources are indeed very important. After consultation, it was finally decided that the Natal City Government should submit an application for the construction of hydropower stations to the Brazilian Ministry of Energy and Mines. As for whether they can get approval, both of them expressed their uncertainty, which made Fang Lang embarrassed. If Natal does not have enough electricity by then, the electrolytic aluminum plant will not be able to open. Its not that Fang Lang didnt consider investing in the construction of the hydropower station himself. The investment cost of the hydropower station is really too high. In addition to the cost of building dams and generating units, he also needs to consider compensation for the submerged land upstream. This is an astronomical figure. Fortunately, the electrolytic aluminum factory is not in a hurry, after arranging the bauxite development company. Finally, Fang Lang, accompanied by his assistants, met with the engineers in the automotive industry system who were transiting in Natal by plane from Germany, and expressed a warm welcome to the engineers. Encourage everyone to start again in a new environment and a new country, and promise to bring all family members to Brazil to reunite with you in the future, and ensure the safety of their family members in Germany during your stay in Brazil. And made meticulous arrangements for the working and living environment of these corporate engineers in Brazil to ensure that everyone has a comfortable working environment. Of course, the destination of these engineers is not in Natal. After all, Natal is now poor and white. Apart from being able to provide some leather materials and rubber materials needed for cars, it does not have the environment to establish a factory. According to Fang Lang''s plan, Mercedes-Benz and Porsche will be mainly distributed in the two cities of Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo, while the Aston Martin factory Fang Lang is going to be placed in Porto Alegre, the capital of Rio Grande do Sul. The main reason is that the state of Rio Grande do Sul is the area with the most concentrated Chinese in Fang Lang''s future planning, and he also hopes that excellent automotive engineers can also be trained among the Chinese in the future. Another important reason is that Porto Alegre, together with Sao Paulo, can cover the real low-altitude essence of Brazil, and it is also the largest automobile consumer market in Brazil. After arranging work in Brazil, Fang Lang took a special plane again and set off for Germany. When Fang Lang came to Germany this time, the treatment was completely different from the first time. Adjutant Qi Qingshan drove the car directly to the apron of the airport. After receiving Fang Lang, the car drove out of the airport directly, without even needing a security check , I was taken to the hotel where I used to live. After returning to Germany, Fang Lang''s most concerned issue was obviously the latest situation of the ** treasure, so as soon as he returned to the hotel room, Fang Lang listened to Qi Qingshan''s latest report on the surveillance of Paul and Leo. "Boss, our personnel monitoring Paul and Leo have discovered their treasure location, and recently that guy named Paul left Stuttgart alone, and our personnel discovered that he went all the way south to Schaffhausen, Switzerland." Hearing this situation, Fang Lang fell into deep thought. What is the purpose of this guy going to Switzerland? The first reaction is to transfer this wealth to Switzerland, because only in this way can these wealth be exchanged for real money. But if you want to transport such a large amount of wealth, it is very unsafe to travel more than 200 kilometers. How can he guarantee that they can reach Switzerland safely? If not to transfer wealth to Switzerland, what is the purpose of his trip? It is impossible to bring in people to share wealth again, right? "Did he go alone? Was there anyone else with him, or did he bring any other items?" "Before heading to Switzerland, he went to the treasure site, and when he came out, he carried a backpack. According to their load, we analyzed that he should have taken out some valuables or gold. Boss, you see, since we have discovered their treasure location, should we go directly to **** their things? Otherwise, if he moved things away like ants moving a house, wouldn''t we not get it? " Qi Qingshan''s idea is very simple. Since everyone already knows the location of the treasure, there is nothing else to say. Just finish the rescue. If you wait, I''m afraid there will be long nights and dreams. (end of this chapter) Chapter 201: Confuse Chapter 201 Doubt Fang Lang smiled when he heard Qi Qingshan''s words. In fact, he had thought about this plan a long time ago. But after his repeated consideration, he was finally rejected by him. First of all, he didnt have many people, only one guard lined up with about 30 people. He didnt dare to act rashly without knowing how many things were inside, and he wouldnt be able to take them out after being discovered. Secondly, if something is in his hands, there is only one way for him to transport it out, and that is by air. But judging from what Fang Lang encountered when he first entered France, the French are also looking for treasures in the territory, and it is impossible for him to transport them away easily. Maybe it''s still nothing to fetch water from a bamboo basket. Again, if he had robbed this batch of treasures in advance, these Germans might break the cans and directly disclose the news to the French occupying forces, so that Fang Lang would have no chance to transport this batch of wealth away. "You just said that he was carrying some valuables to Switzerland, right? Have we investigated what he did in Switzerland?" Fang Lang judged that the other party must have gone to Switzerland alone to transfer wealth. Thinking differently, if it is Fang Lang himself, if he knows the secrets of this batch of wealth, or hide it and don''t touch him, wait until the wind has passed, and then make a long-term plan. Now that they are moving it, it means that they are going to use it. No matter what the purpose of using it is, it cannot be used in Germany. Because, if a piece of gold is used in Germany now, it is not intended to tell everyone that I have ** treasures in my hands. Then he wont be able to use it anymore. If it can be transferred to Switzerland, it will be different. Swiss Bank is famous for recognizing money but not people. Even if he knows that your wealth comes from ** treasures, as long as you can deposit it in their bank, he will not say anything. At most, it will be converted into the corresponding currency for you without paying interest, and the Swiss bank will not lose money no matter what. If there is another great advantage of having a Swiss bank, it can guarantee your own safety. Because, the current Swiss bank only recognizes the depositor himself. If you want to withdraw funds from your account, you must withdraw it with your own reserved credentials and password. Even if someone captures you and wants to get this wealth, they dare not hurt you, because only you can withdraw it yourself. If you die, this wealth will be cheaper to the Swiss bank. So Fang Lang judged that the destination of this wealth must be Switzerland. What Fang Lang was curious about was how the other party ensured that the more than 200 kilometers of journey could be transported safely, and how to ensure that they could get out of the German border. "I don''t know exactly what they did in Switzerland. We have to wait for our people to come back. Now we only know that the other party entered Schaffhausen, Switzerland." "When is the news?" "We have two people following him, and every day there will be a telegram to report the situation. The latest news is yesterday, but today''s news is not received." After hearing Qi Qingshan''s words, Fang Lang fell into deep thought. For some reason, he always felt that everything seemed to be going too smoothly. To say that his own people carried out an indoor assault and captured this Gestapo named Paul in one fell swoop. Fang Lang believed that he had this ability. However, now his soldiers are able to follow a Gestapo to Switzerland without the other party noticing, and new information comes every day, which makes Fang Lang feel a little incredible. The Gestapo is not a simple marine soldier. These guys are all doing intelligence work, and they are often specially trained agents. Tracking and anti-tracking are the most basic abilities. It must be wrong for him to be followed by his own marines who have only received basic battlefield reconnaissance, and they have not been discovered. But since the other party did not take action, there must be other purposes. "Do you think a Gestapo will be so easily tracked by us?" Qi Qingshan was taken aback by Fang Lang''s question, looked at Fang Lang strangely and said: "Our people are all professionally trained. If you want to track a person, it''s not so easy to be discovered." In fact, Qi Qingshan cannot be blamed for this. After all, the other party was born as an expeditionary army soldier. He has never been in contact with the intelligence front, nor has he experienced the baptism of various spy war dramas and novels like Fang Lang. He does not understand what it means to be a Gestapo. . In his mind, the training that soldiers are exposed to is comprehensive and professional, and he does not feel that he is inferior to others. However, Fang Lang still wants to hear other people''s opinions. After all, the three cobblers are the best of Zhuge Liang! "You said, if, I mean, if this Paul already knew that our people were following him, and he found out, but he pretended not to know anything, what do you think is the reason?" "Huh? You mean this Paul may have found our people?" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Qi Qingshan also fell into deep thought, and said after a long time: "If it''s what you said, then the other party must be trying to mislead us. Let us follow his train of thought. But, it''s not right! If it is true as you said, he has already discovered us, how could we let us discover him? It''s a treasure trove! Are you not afraid that we will grab it directly? " "Yes! This is also what I find strange. Even if we directly rob this batch of wealth, they are sure that we will not be able to ship it out, and they will also lose this wealth! Why would they let us discover the treasure location? Are you sure what we found is the real treasure? Have we checked in? " Qi Qingshan was obviously also confused by Fang Lang. I don''t know why Fang Lang felt that the other party had actually discovered their stalking a long time ago. If he found their whereabouts and continued to pretend that he didn''t know, many things would not be explained at all. They went in empty-handed, and when they came out they carried backpacks on their backs. The shape and weight of the objects in the backpacks made our people judge that they were valuables. However, if we go in and confirm, we don''t have it, and we dare not take action lightly. I''m afraid that the other party left some secret marks. When we came back, we found that we had moved, which aroused suspicion, so we didn''t dare to go in to confirm. " Fang Lang recognized Qi Qingshan''s caution. After all, it''s hard to say whether the other party has really discovered the stalking. If the other party is just a civilian, it is very possible that they have not discovered their stalking. "That place has been under our surveillance, right?" "Yes, our people are monitoring this and that location from a distance in shifts, and nothing unusual has been found in the past few days." Some things are easy to say when you dont doubt them, but once you doubt them, you feel that nothing is right. Just like a saying that everyone often says, when you ask the melon seller whether the melon is ripe or not, it doesnt matter whether the melon is ripe or not, because you have already determined that the melon is not ripe in your heart. . Fang Lang is the same now. When he began to suspect that something was wrong with this matter, he thought it was wrong no matter what he thought, but he couldn''t find what was wrong for the time being, which made him a little uncomfortable. After thinking for a long time, he said: "What about the guy named Leo with him? Is there anything unusual?" "This guy is quite normal, he has been hiding in the hut in the forest without any movement. On the contrary, the people who launched the attack outside the hotel at that time are now looking for trucks in the market, and these guys'' actions are somewhat unrestrained. I worry that even if the French are slow, they will probably find something abnormal. If the French find them and find treasures from them, we will have nothing to do. " "You said they were looking for trucks?" "Yes." "It seems that they are responsible for transporting something, right?" "I think they should be responsible for transporting this batch of treasures." At this time, Fang Lang felt more and more interesting. Although Fang Lang has only met this Paul guy once, no matter how he looks at it, Fang Lang feels that the other party is not a simple character. But it happened that this not-so-simple guy found such a group of simple people to help him transport the treasure. No matter how he looked at it, Fang Lang felt that this matter was strange. "Then let our people remind them, be careful, and don''t let the French find out." Fang Lang said with a smile on his face. "Ah! We remind them, how can we remind them! We can''t write to them!" "Let me teach you all this? As long as we don''t expose our identities, you can figure out what method to use." Fang Lang was very annoyed by Qi Qingshan''s questions. If he had to ask himself everything, he would never grow up as an adjutant. Hearing Fang Lang''s anger, Qi Qingshan hurriedly said: "Yes, sir, I will try to remind them immediately. However, if we get their attention, it will be difficult for us to follow them. What if we lose track of them? " "It doesn''t matter, we just need to guard the treasure place." Qi Qingshan saw that Fang Lang had made up his mind a long time ago, so he didn''t say anything more, but silently nodded quickly. "If you don''t understand it, let''s not think about it. The most important person is that guy named Paul. No matter what, just keep an eye on him. Since they are not in a hurry, we don''t need to be in a hurry. Make an appointment with Mayor Jonas for me. I want to visit the machine tool factory in Stuttgart tomorrow morning. " Fang Lang understands that as long as the guy named Paul doesn''t come back, this group of people will definitely not make any moves. Instead of waiting here, it''s better to follow the plan now and get things done in the machine tool industry first. "Okay, boss. I''ll get in touch with Mayor Jonas right away." Because of the long-distance flight, Fang Lang felt a little tired, so he didn''t continue to say anything more to Qi Qingshan, and rested early in the hotel room. Early the next morning, Mayor Jonas arrived at the hotel early. "Fang, nice to see you again." Mayor Jonas Fang Lang was very enthusiastic this time, and wanted to imitate the Brazilian habit and hug him. Fang Lang didn''t refuse either, and hugged him very warmly. "Mr. Mayor, I am also very glad to see you again. Have you had breakfast? If not, let''s eat and talk together." The two of them went directly to the hotel restaurant for breakfast as if they were old friends. "Fang, your people told me that you are going to inspect our machine tool industry, right?" "Yes, machine tools are the mother of industry, so I want to introduce two machine tool companies from Germany back to China, so that Brazil can also have the ability to independently manufacture industrial machine tools." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Jonas said with a hesitant expression: "Fang, first of all, I would like to thank you for your recognition of our German industrial machine tool companies, but now our machine tool industry is restricted by the "Potsdam Proclamation". Most of the equipment has been dismantled, and now the remaining equipment is used under the supervision of the French. Our machine tool factory is now using the remaining equipment to produce the machine tools they need for the French every day in exchange for funds. maintain workers'' livelihoods. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 202: Best second best Chapter 202 The next best thing Fang Lang thought that the current machine tool industry of the Germans would definitely be subject to certain restrictions, but he still wanted to come to Germany to see what level the current machine tool industry has reached. The most important thing is the machine tool processing industry, which actually needs professional skilled workers, just like the eighth-level fitters in China. His goal is actually these excellent skilled workers. As for machine tools and the like, he doesn''t particularly care about them. After all, the current machine tools are far from reaching the advanced level of later generations. There are no high-end equipment such as unattainable five-axis CNC machine tools. Since the machine tool industry is restricted, it is a big deal not to consider a joint venture! Directly poach some excellent technical workers and excellent mechanical designers with rich experience to return to Brazil to establish their own machine tool production enterprises. As for the machine tools and equipment, I will go to Switzerland to have a look at that time, if not, I will go to Italy to have a look. Of course, Fang Lang''s order is chosen according to the strength ranking of the machine tool industry in later generations. The actual situation now is that the technical strength of these countries should not be particularly different. "Oh! It doesn''t matter, I am relatively new to the machine tool industry, so I want to visit and study in a powerful industrial country in Europe. I dont know, is there any problem if I visit your machine tool factory? " "You may need to explain this to Colonel Chatham, and then you can enter the factory accompanied by their personnel. However, if you need to recruit relevant skilled workers for the machine tool factory, I am very happy to help." This situation is obviously different from what Fang Lang originally thought. I didn''t expect to apply to the occupying army when visiting the machine tool factory. This is really very strict management. I don''t know if all the occupying forces have the same standard. Fortunately, I didnt ask to visit the Mauser factory. It is estimated that the control is stricter. Fang Lang can also understand that Mayor Jonas offered to help Fang Lang recruit skilled workers. After all, as I said just now, many machine tools have been disassembled and shipped away, so many machine tool workers will definitely lose their jobs. At this time, Fang Lang was able to come forward to recruit some workers, which undoubtedly gave them a way to survive. "Then thank Mayor Jonas, but I still want to explain to you that I only want the best skilled workers and the best mechanical engineering designers. If they are willing to come with me, I can promise to bring their family to live in Brazil. As for the number of people, lets recruit according to the standard of 50 people for each job type! Experienced and excellent mechanical designers also recruit about 50 people. How long will it take to complete the recruitment! " Although this will lead to the loss of a large number of industrial talents, Mayor Jonas is very distressed. However, he also understood that if they were not sent out, perhaps these people and their families risked starving to death in Germany. "No problem, you give me a week, and I will definitely recruit the best people for you." "You just said that all the machine tools in the factory have been disassembled and installed, right? I don''t know if they have been dismantled or shipped away yet!" Fang Lang remembered his operation of acquiring an artillery factory in Japan. I wonder if he can repeat it in Germany? "I am not very clear about the specific situation. You may need to go to the factory to check and ask the factory personnel to find out." Obviously, the mayors of these places, Jonas, are also restricted and cannot intervene directly. Since this is the case, it is useless to continue looking for Jonas. It''s better to just let him go back and recruit skilled workers for yourself. "Well, I will leave it to you to recruit workers. After recruiting people, you should contact Adjutant Qi, and we will arrange planes to send people back to Brazil in batches." Soon, the two of them settled the matter of recruiting skilled workers from the machine tool factory for Fang Lang while having breakfast. After sending Mayor Jonas away, Fang Lang returned to the room, and Qi Qingshan came to report: "Boss, that Paul bought a ticket back to Stuttgart yesterday. He is expected to return to Stuttgart this evening." "Oh! Find out what he did in Switzerland?" Since he is going back to Germany, it is obvious that the things in Switzerland are over. "Our people can''t be sure what he did, but he didn''t move around in Switzerland. Apart from staying in the hotel, he also went to the bank once and the telegraph office twice." Hearing Qi Qingshan''s report, Fang Lang shook his head. In a foreign country, he could only simply stare at where the other party went, and there was no way to investigate what he did. This can''t be blamed on the people under him, after all, they are not agents of the intelligence department, and there is no way to find out what the other party is doing. It was already in Fang Lang''s expectation that the other party went to the bank. As for going to the telegraph office, he must contact the outside world, but he has no way of knowing who he contacted. Besides, it is impossible to know whether other people living in the hotel have contacted the outside world by phone. However, Fang Lang can also confirm one thing, that is, in addition to these rebels in Stuttgart now, this Paul must have other accomplices. What Fang Lang didn''t understand very much was, shouldn''t the fewer people know about this kind of thing, the better? What is the purpose of his contacting around like this? The more he thought about Fang Lang, the more he couldn''t understand it. "I see, let our people pay attention to safety, especially pay attention to whether there is a tail behind you! Don''t wait to be attacked from behind silently." Fang Lang was worried, whether Paul would start to clean up his tail and let himself get away. Don''t catch Paul''s tail by then, and lose two fighters himself, Fang Lang will be at a big loss. "Boss, what do you mean he has accomplices?" Qi Qingshan found himself asking an idiot question after asking the exit, and quickly said: "I see, boss. Also, we have done what you ordered to remind the rebels." "Oh! Don''t let them think of us!" He doesn''t care how his subordinates remind the other party, as long as the goal is achieved. Its like Mr. Deng said, whether its a black cat or a white cat, its a good cat if it catches mice. "Don''t worry, we pretended to be Germans who sympathized with the rebels and wrote a note and let a child send it in. Our people found that they dispersed and evacuated immediately after receiving the note, and there were no French people under surveillance nearby. " Fang Lang smiled and said: "The French''s sense of smell should not be so sensitive. We will continue to pay attention to them, and if we find that other people are eyeing them, we must report in time." "Okay, boss." After discussing these matters with Qi Qingshan, Fang Lang picked up the phone directly in the hotel room and called Colonel Chatham. "Mr. Colonel, I am Fang Lang, I hope I didn''t disturb you!" "Haha. Don''t bother, don''t bother. Fang, you just came back and you want to find me for something good?" Hearing Colonel Chatham''s cheerful laughter on the phone, it is obvious that the personnel who have been transported out in recent days have given his wine estate a chance. Even the depressed mood of being attacked began to improve. "Haha. Colonel Chatham, you are really right. I wonder if it is convenient to say it on the phone?" The other party encountered an attack once, Fang Lang really didn''t dare to ask the other party to meet easily, he couldn''t guarantee that there were no other rebels staring at the other party. If another attack happened because of meeting him, Colonel Chatham probably wouldn''t be able to doubt himself. "Don''t worry, no one will monitor our line. If it''s something particularly important, you can also come to my office to talk." Fang Lang thought about it for a while and finally felt that it is better to say some things in person, and it is really inconvenient to say some things on the phone. "This time I''m back in Brazil, I brought you a box of Cuban cigars, I''d better bring them over to meet and chat with you! I wonder when is it convenient for you?" "Fang, you are my friend, it is convenient for me to see you anytime." "Alright then, I''ll be right over." This time Fang Lang wants to see if he has the opportunity to repeat the operation in the Japanese artillery factory, so it is better to communicate in person. "Gyeongsan, pack up and arrange a car to go with me to the headquarters of the occupying army." After giving an order to Qi Qingshan who had been standing by his side, Fang Lang casually picked up a box of cigars he usually smoked, and went straight out to the headquarters of the French occupation forces in Stuttgart. The current headquarters of the French Occupation Army obviously has more guards than the original one, and the inspection is much stricter. Obviously, the attack on the commander at the gate of the house last time left a deep impression on these proud Frenchmen. Upon entering the building, Colonel Chatham''s adjutant was already waiting in the lobby. Under the guidance of Mr. Adjutant, Fang Lang and Qi Qingshan walked into Colonel Chatham''s office. As soon as the door of the office was pushed open, Colonel Chatham came directly to give Fang Lang a big hug. "Fang, nice to see you again! Come and sit down." This level of enthusiasm made Fang Lang very uncomfortable for a while. I dont know if this old boy is so enthusiastic because he knows that he will make him rich again this time. "Haha. I am also very happy to meet you, Colonel Chatham. I have already met you in Brazil. The first batch of talents sent there by special plane, thank you very much for your help." As he spoke, he handed over the cigar box. Chatham glanced at the sign on the cigar box and said: "Hey! Is this the brand Roosevelt likes?" Fang Lang really didn''t care about this question, he could only shrug helplessly and didn''t answer. Colonel Chatham directly opened the cigar box, glanced at it and said: "Yes, it is indeed it! Thank you for your gift, I like it very much. Tell me, do you have any good news to tell me this time?" Fang Lang smiled, and didn''t say anything about the recruitment of technicians in the machine tool industry. After all, these things don''t need to be too specific, as long as he pays per head. Dont tell the other party too clearly what kind of talent you are. "Mr. Colonel, I came here today mainly to ask you one thing. I heard that a lot of equipment in the Stuttgart machine tool factory has been disassembled and packaged and shipped back to France, right?" Colonel Chatham had no intention of concealing Fang Lang about this kind of thing, and said directly: "That''s right, according to the content of the "Potsdam Proclamation", we want to restrict the industrial development of Germany. The government requires us to dismantle the heavy industry in the territory, and a lot of equipment has been transported away. Let me see, there should be a convoy coming here today to take away a batch of equipment, why? Are you interested in these devices? " (end of this chapter) Chapter 203: disappointment Chapter 203 Disappointment It seems that Colonel Chatham is indeed a very good friend. Fang Lang didn''t hide anything, and even revealed to Fang Lang that there was a convoy coming today. "Mr. Colonel, I wonder if there is room for manipulation?" Fang Lang''s answer obviously confirmed Colonel Chatham''s question. After thinking for a while, Colonel Chatham asked: "what do you mean?" "I am developing industry in Brazil. Of course, there is a shortage of machine tools. If I can find some high-quality and cheap machine tools from here, it must be great!" "However, these machine tools have been registered, and there is a special convoy responsible for transporting them back to France, which is not very easy to operate." Fang Lang didn''t want to force it. If there were any irreplaceable equipment, Fang Lang would definitely try his best to transport them back, but now he doesn''t know what equipment is still there, so it''s hard to say much. After thinking about it, he said: "Mr. Colonel, I wonder if I can go inside these factories to see what kind of equipment they have." This kind of trivial matter is nothing more than a sentence to Colonel Chatham. "Of course, no problem, do you need me to accompany you on a trip?" "Mr. Colonel is busy with official duties, so I don''t dare to trouble you to make a trip. You can just arrange someone to take us to visit." Fang Lang mainly didn''t want to go out with this guy. If he was attacked, he wouldn''t be angry. "OK then!" After speaking, he said to his adjutant: "Adjutant, you take Colonel Fang to the machine tool factory in Stuttgart today. You must meet all the needs of Colonel Fang and ensure that Colonel Fang is satisfied. Do you understand?" "Yes, sir." The adjutant stood at attention and saluted very simply, and motioned Fang Lang to go with him. Fang Lang was not polite, and didn''t stay in Colonel Chatham''s office for too long, so he directly expressed his thanks and followed the adjutant out of Colonel Chatham''s office. As soon as he walked to the parking lot outside the headquarters, he noticed that a very handsome young captain was sitting in a Willys jeep and parked downstairs of the headquarters. After seeing the adjutant, the other party took the initiative to greet the adjutant. Because both of them communicated in French, Fang Lang knew that the other party was a captain and company commander of a transportation company named Gerald. Although Fang Lang himself is also a young man, he is also a little curious that there is such a young captain and company commander in the French army. On the way to the machine tool factory, I did not forget to say with emotion: "The officer just now is really young!" After hearing Fang Lang''s emotion, the adjutant looked at Fang Lang, and said without looking at how old you are: "Yes! During the war, capable young people are promoted very quickly." This made Fang Lang feel a little gossip and said: "Oh! Is this Captain Gerald very powerful?" The adjutant introduced it proudly after hearing this. "Yes, although Captain Gerald is young, he is an old soldier. He joined the guerrillas when he was sixteen years old. During the war, they were often surrounded by the Germans behind enemy lines. Slowly, all the comrades around him fell down, and at a young age, he finally carried the banner of the guerrillas. However, he had only been a guerrilla captain for two months before France was liberated. He also joined the army, originally serving as a company commander in a combat unit. Two months ago, I took the initiative to apply to be transferred to the transportation company as the transportation company commander. Now it is mainly responsible for transporting the mechanical equipment disassembled from Germany to the designated factory in France according to the government''s plan. " Hearing the adjutant''s introduction, Fang Lang didn''t think too much about it. After all, no matter which country he was in, there would always be such characters in the face of aggression, and there was a Youth League in his hometown! "That''s really amazing. If you have the opportunity to introduce me to such a hero in the future." The adjutant heard Fang Lang praise his comrade-in-arms as a hero, and felt honored in his heart, and said with a smile: "No problem, they will rest in Stuttgart for a few days, and I will introduce you when we meet next time." Fang Lang also expressed his gratitude after listening. Talking and laughing all the way to a large machine tool factory, Fang Lang found that there were French soldiers standing guard at the door. No wonder Mayor Jonas asked him to find the occupation army headquarters. The convoy stopped at the gate of the factory, and after a simple communication with the adjutant, the convoy was released smoothly. Soon the convoy stopped at the door of a huge production workshop. Accompanied by his adjutant, Fang Lang entered the long-awaited German machine tool manufacturer. It is a factory building with a height of more than ten meters, a width of more than forty to fifty meters, and a depth of nearly a hundred meters. It''s a pity that the situation inside is far from what Fang Lang expected. Most places in the huge production workshop are empty. Fang Lang can judge from the traces left on the ground that many places used to be the location of fixed machine tools. It''s just that there are only some screws leaking out of the ground to fix the machine tools in these places. The number of machine tools remaining in the entire workshop should be less than one-fifth of the original number. This disappointed Fang Lang. However, there are still more than 20 machine tools left that are still working. Fang Lang was not born in engineering, and he doesn''t know much about machine tools. However, I have seen some machine tools in TV and movies. The machine tools in front of me are very similar to the machine tools in the 1980s in China. For machine tools, Fang Lang''s impression is only about turning, cutting, planing, milling, grinding, boring, etc. He is not particularly clear about how to operate them. Originally thought that as a machine tool manufacturer, Fang Lang would have the opportunity to see what the legendary industrial hen looked like, but what he saw now seemed to be not too different from the machining workshop in his hometown in the 1980s. the difference. Fang Lang watched while walking, and when he reached the end of the workshop, he saw several masters measuring the processed workpieces with tools, so he moved over curiously to have a look. When the workers saw outsiders coming, they got up quickly. Fang Lang smiled politely and asked: "Master, how accurate can your machining be?" The translator next to ?? translated Fang Lang''s question, and the master smiled shyly and said: "0.01mm." This really surprised Fang Lang. Could such accuracy be achieved during World War II? its not right! Fang Lang remembered that he had heard somewhere that the machining accuracy of the 88mm anti-aircraft guns produced by the Germans during World War II was 0.1mm! How come the machining accuracy here is 0.01 mm! Of course he had to ask if he didn''t understand, Fang Lang directly expressed the question in his heart: "Master, I heard that the machining accuracy of the 88mm gun produced by Krupp is only up to 0.1mm?" Soon the master smiled and said: "That''s the processing accuracy of the drilling machine. It is already very remarkable that such a long artillery barrel can be drilled to achieve a processing accuracy of 0.1 mm. But we are a machine tool processing factory here, and the precision requirements must be higher in order to be able to produce other machine tools with higher precision. " At this moment, Fang Lang was really envious! Unexpectedly, the machining accuracy of the Germans'' machine tools at such an early age has reached such a terrifying level. Involuntarily, he gave the master a thumbs up. Out of this workshop, Fang Lang came to an assembly workshop again, and saw workers combining and installing various parts together to become some basic machine tools. Fang Lang understands that it should be the machine tool that can still be produced in Germany now, and the production of more advanced machine tools should be restricted. It is estimated that there is nothing to see in these factories, which makes Fang Lang feel a little discouraged. Looking at the empty workshop in the huge factory area, Fang Lang sighed secretly, he was late, and all the good things had been dragged away by the occupying forces. I just dont know if we can recruit some designers of advanced machine tools this time. After arriving in Brazil, we can produce machine tools that can reach the machining accuracy of Germany. Turned around and went to the warehouse again. I saw a lot of very tight machine tool equipment wrapped in wooden crates. Obviously, these were all ready to be shipped away. Through the packaging, Fang Lang can also see that these are all recently produced by the factory, and they are not particularly advanced machine tools. In this case, Fang Lang can only shake his head helplessly, and left the machine tool factory with a look of disappointment. Not even interested in visiting the next factory. Because, Fang Lang knew in his heart that the French should not leave anything to the Germans. The machine tools left here are not even as advanced as the machine tools Fang Lang shipped back from the Japanese artillery factory. At least, among those machine tools, there are several large machine tools produced in Germany for processing gun barrels, but now this factory no longer has these equipments. Thinking of the rapid rise of German machine tools from this situation, I am unconsciously admiring. From this point of view, it is talents who ultimately promote the development of technology! It should be right to recruit excellent machine tool designers and skilled workers. I believe that with excellent talents, we will be able to produce excellent machine tools. After all, talents are the most precious wealth! In terms of processing technology, Fang Lang has heard of the same machine tool, which can be easily processed by a master craftsman on the same machine tool, but some masters scrapped a hundred pieces of material on the same machine tool. None of them were successful either. The precision of the processing is very different, so Fang Lang feels more and more that as long as he has excellent talents, the technical level will definitely reach the excellent standard. As for the machine tools needed by the factory in the early stage, it seems that they can only be purchased in Switzerland, Italy and the United States. After leaving the factory, Fang Lang went directly back to the hotel, and no longer hoped to obtain high-quality and cheap ready-made machine tools from Germany. After all, I am about to build an automobile industry system in Brazil, which also requires a lot of machine tools. Purchasing from abroad is not a small expense. It would be great if we can directly take advantage of this opportunity to promote the localization of the machine tool industry. I cant help but feel a little regretful. After all, I was not born in engineering. Why didnt I think that I should get the machine tool factory first, and then introduce the automobile factory? Thinking of this, Fang Lang didn''t hesitate anymore, and drove directly to the city hall to meet Mayor Jonas. "What? You mean that your RWTH Aachen University established a machine tool laboratory as early as 1907?" When Fang Lang arrived at the municipal government, Mayor Jonas was planning to recruit technical talents for the machine tool industry that Fang Lang needed, and met with several outstanding mechanical engineers. Among them, two intellectuals who looked to be almost fifty years old were particularly eye-catching, because it seemed that the people around them were dominated by these two. Seeing Fang Lang coming, Jonas naturally took the initiative to introduce several people to each other. Through the introduction of Fang Lang, I learned that several machine tool designers here are all graduated from the same university, and the two old gentlemen are excellent talents from the Machine Tool Experimental Research Laboratory of Aachen University. (end of this chapter) Chapter 204: Confuse Chapter 204 Doubt Fang Lang didn''t expect that the current university had already started experimenting and researching machine tools. This opened the door to a new world for Fang Lang. "Two old gentlemen, since Germany is currently severely restricted, I wonder if I can have the honor to hire the two to build a new machine tool research laboratory in Brazil." Regarding the olive branch thrown by Fang Lang, the two old gentlemen were obviously a little moved. After looking at each other, one of the old gentlemen said: "Mr. Fang, Mr. Mayor told us about your help to us, and we are very willing to go to Brazil to continue machine tool research experiments, but I feel that my personal ability is not enough to be the leader of the laboratory. Some of our best designers have been recruited by the United States and the Soviet Union, and those of us can barely serve as auxiliary talents. If you want to set up a laboratory, I have a candidate for you. If you can persuade this person to return to China with you, I think this machine tool laboratory will be able to achieve excellent results soon. " Fang Lang didn''t expect such a good thing to happen. Isn''t this taking the initiative to send talents to himself? "Oh! Please be sure to tell me where this person is. I will set off now and visit him personally." Seeing Fang Lang''s eagerness for talent, the two were also very relieved, and smiled and said: "His name is Oqu Kent, and he is a professor at the School of Mechanical Engineering at Aachen University. Although he is not a member of the Machine Tool Research Laboratory, he has published many papers on machine tool research. He has a high attainment in the research of machine tool automation, and many of our researches are guided by him. " As soon as Fang Lang heard about the research on machine tool automation, Fang Lang''s eyes began to light up. This is the future! But at the same time, he felt strange and said: "Since he is so powerful, why hasn''t he been recruited by the United States and the Soviet Union?" Hearing Fang Lang''s question, the two were also a little confused, and one of them said: "The United States and the Soviet Union did invite him, but I don''t know why they all chose to give up." Now Fanglang became confused, under what circumstances can the United States and the Soviet Union not be able to attract? Could it be that this person''s requirements are very high? No matter what, since I know there is such a person, I have to try everything. "Then please tell me where this professor lives, and I will visit him personally now." Actually, we have never met the professor himself, but only read his research papers. He was specially hired as a professor by the University of Aachen last year. I do know the approximate location where he lives, but you may need to go to the vicinity to inquire about it. " I don''t know why, but after hearing what a few people said, Fang Lang always felt weird in his heart, and couldn''t tell what was wrong. Maybe you can know what''s going on after seeing the person? Fang Lang then invited the two of them again. Both of them expressed concern about their lack of ability to serve as the leaders of the research laboratory, but they also clearly agreed to work in Brazil. Here, Fang Lang is relieved. No matter what the professor''s situation is, he should invite a few more outstanding researchers first. expressed his thanks to Mayor Jonas, and asked them to introduce more excellent machine tool designers. Several people also readily agreed. Fang Lang, who left the city hall, went directly to the home of the professor named Oqu Kent according to the address, because the professor''s home was near Aachen University. In order to save time, Fang Lang flew directly to Aachen by plane. Aachen is a border city near the Netherlands and Belgium, and Aachen is now under the rule of the British occupation forces. The plane arrived in Aachen in less than two hours. The feeling of arriving in Aachen is obviously better than the feeling of arriving in Stuttgart for the first time. It may be that the British rule over the occupied area is not as strict as the French. Fang Lang left the airport without any hindrance, rented a few cars near the airport and arrived at the location marked with the address. After some inquiries, I finally found the professor''s home. The person who opened the door was a woman in her fifties, with gray hair, high cheekbones, and a cold expression on her face. After hearing that he was here to visit Professor Kent, he immediately invited several people into the house warmly. The face-changing speed was so fast that Fang Lang was caught off guard by the time. Fang Lang smiled and quickly handed over the visiting gift politely. After the wife opened it and read it, she immediately became more enthusiastic. Because Fang Lang sent a set of jewelry. After entering the room, Fang Lang saw a kind-looking old man in his fifties sitting on the sofa, with a very bookish aura on his body. However, after seeing a guest come in, the other party did not get up. Fang Lang didn''t mind, he took the initiative to reach out and say hello: "Hello, Professor Kent, my name is Fang Lang. It''s a great honor to meet you." Professor seemed more reserved. After seeing Fang Lang''s appearance, he slowly got up, shook hands with Fang Lang lightly, and said: "Hello, Mr. Fang, I''m glad to meet you too, I don''t know how I can help you." Feeling that the other party just shook hands gently, and there was no smile on his face, Fang Lang didn''t feel very good. But since Im here to invite people out of the mountain, its normal for me to put my hot face on my cold butt! Therefore, with the same smile on his face, he pushed the gift box in his hand. This is a watch bought in Stuttgart. It can also be regarded as a very expensive gift. After the professor took a look, a smile finally appeared on his face. This made Fang Lang feel very strange. Generally, educated intellectuals would appear a little noble, let alone love money! It shouldn''t be that obvious either. This seems a bit out of tune with the bookish look on the other side. However, the other party quickly restrained his smile again, and changed back to the a little arrogant look just now. Fang Lang didn''t want to beat around the bush, so he said directly: "Professor, I heard that you have high attainments in the field of automatic machine tool research. I wonder if I can invite you to establish a machine tool experimental laboratory in Brazil." Before Fang Lang could finish speaking, the professor interrupted: "Brazil? The Brazil in South America? Can you use such an advanced machine tool?" Your mother! As soon as he said this, Fang Lang became a little upset. What do you mean? Look down on people. Qi Qingshan and the others behind him also changed color. Maybe realizing that he made a slip of the tongue, the professor said again: "I mean, the investment in machine tool research is very large. Have you prepared the corresponding funds?" Fang Lang changed his breath, and then said slowly: "Please rest assured that we have prepared sufficient funds, which will definitely be able to meet the research funding of the Machine Tool Research Laboratory." "Oh! How much is the laboratory''s monthly budget! Do I have absolute control over these expenses?" Hearing that Fang Lang said that there was enough research funding, the professor''s expression softened, and he put the book he had been holding on the table beside him. Fang Lang''s eyes accidentally glanced at the title of the book, which turned out to be an English version of "Du Lie''s New Book". When he saw the title of the book, Fang Lang was in a bad mood. Is it appropriate for you to read the deception books left by my ancestors in front of me? This "New Book of Du Cheats" is also called "The Classic of Cheats". It is a book dedicated to introducing various deceptions during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty. Of course, it does not tell you how to cheat, but tells you how to avoid scams. However, there are plenty of scammers looking to it for inspiration. As a crew member, Fang Lang happened to read this book when he was traveling slowly on the sea when he was bored. At this moment, Fang Lang felt that he was not well. The professor in front of him should not be a liar! How could a liar become a university professor? However, when he heard that the other party was concerned about the laboratory''s research funds and the right to control funds, and then looked at the books on the table, Fang Lang wanted to blurt out a sentence in his heart. After a long while, Fang Lang still comforted himself and said, ''You are a cultural person! It''s normal to read a lot of books! I should be thinking too much. '' Still tentatively asked: "I don''t know how much the professor thinks, how much money is needed to build a machine tool research laboratory?" After listening to Fang Lang''s question, the professor flashed his eyes and asked: "Your laboratory hasn''t started construction yet, has it? If you want to meet my experimental requirements, this laboratory needs to invest at least one million US dollars, and the monthly R&D expenditure is expected to exceed 10,000 US dollars. You have such a strength?" This funding is of course a trivial matter to Fang Lang, but Fang Lang has already begun to doubt the professor in his heart. So he tried: "If you invest so much, I don''t know how long it will take to produce results? Professor, can you tell me about your main research direction?" Professor looked at Fang Lang strangely and said: "Didn''t you find me after reading my thesis? My research direction must be the automation of machine tools! As for how long it will take to produce results! The direction I am researching now is about to make a breakthrough, and a breakthrough should be made within two months. If you can really fully support my research, you will definitely gain a lot. " Fang Lang didn''t expect that the other party would directly promise to produce results within two months. If he was a liar, he would have said that the research could not give an accurate time! Or is the professor planning to run away with the money within two months? Fang Lang hesitated for a while. Just as Fang Lang was thinking about how to answer the professor''s question, he suddenly heard an imperceptible sound of metal being dragged across the ground. The professor and his wife, both in the living room. It means that there must be other people in the house, but the sound is not from upstairs, but from underground. Fang Lang''s heart moved and said: "That''s really great, with your words, I feel relieved. It is almost time for dinner now. I wonder if I would be honored to invite you and your family to a restaurant in the city for dinner to celebrate the birth of our common laboratory. " After the professor and his wife looked at each other, their faces showed a burst of joy, and finally the professor smiled happily: "Of course, no problem. This is indeed a cause for celebration." "Well, I will arrange for people to go to the restaurant in the urban area to reserve a seat. I don''t know if the professor''s family is here. How many seats do we need to reserve?" Fang Lang also said with a smile on his face. Professor''s wife took the initiative to answer after hearing the number of family members: "My husband and I are the only two in our family. Our children have all gone to the United States, and we have no family members around. Therefore, we only need the positions of the two of us." Hearing what the professor''s wife said, Fang Lang turned his head to the professor''s wife, his eyes swept across the house, and found nothing unusual. However, there are some guesses in my heart. "Then I will arrange the restaurant now, and I will arrange the driver to pick up the professor and his wife for the banquet later. I will leave first." After finishing speaking, Fang Lang took the initiative to get up and bid farewell to the two masters. The professor and his wife also sent Fang Lang to the gate very enthusiastically. When he walked out of the room, Fang Lang heard a slight sound of metal rubbing against the ground from the ground again. (end of this chapter) Chapter 205: Find Chapter 205 Discovery Fang Lang, who was sitting in the car, looked at the yard of the professor''s house, and said to Qi Qingshan who was sitting in the co-pilot seat: "After arranging someone to pick up the professor and his wife, arrange for the two brothers to enter the professor''s house and look for the basement of the professor''s house. See what you can find, and remember not to take any action no matter what you see, come back and report to me immediately, and I will judge what to do next. " Qi Qingshan was taken aback when he heard Fang Lang''s order, and couldn''t understand why Fang Lang, who was talking and laughing with others just now, suddenly wanted to arrange for someone to sneak into other people''s homes to search. However, the duty of a soldier made him reflexively say: "Yes, sir." After answering, Qi Qingshan really wanted to ask why? But seeing Fang Lang lost in thought, he wisely chose to shut his mouth. At about six o''clock in the evening, in an Italian restaurant that was still open in Aachen, Germany, the Kent County professor and his wife were sitting opposite Fang Lang, talking and laughing. "Professor, I don''t know what kind of work you were doing before you became a professor at the University of Aachen?" While chatting, Fang Lang led the topic to the professor''s original work. Maybe too many people have asked about this topic, Mr. Professor said very casually: "Before that, I was engaged in theoretical research related to machine tools at the University of Munich. However, our research laboratory serves the government, so the level of confidentiality is relatively high. I''m sorry that I can''t be too specific." Good guy, there is a confidentiality level. Your Third Reich has fallen, and you are still talking about the level of secrecy here. means, this is a secret. Machine tools still have confidential research, and you are also a talent. I almost thought you were studying the atomic bomb. The more he talked, the more Fang Lang felt that he told himself that there was a problem with the two people in front of him. Fang Lang has never taken the initiative to discuss with the other party how much salary he will pay each month, and the other party seems not in a hurry. Fang Lang always found it very strange. However, since he had arranged for someone to investigate the professor and his wife''s home, he couldn''t be sure if it was his illusion before the results came out. He could only flatter the professor constantly at the dinner table, and at the same time calmly persuade the professor and his wife to drink. Originally, Fang Lang''s original intention was to get the professor and his wife drunk to buy more time for the soldiers who went to investigate at home. As a result, as the professor and his wife drank more and more wine, they naturally began to talk more, and they began to talk about their views on some things very actively. Although the two of them did not disclose any specific information, Fang Lang quickly judged from the parents'' story told by the professor''s wife that the professor''s wife might have been working in the countryside. As for the possibility that the professor is an ordinary skilled worker, the ordinary technicians in Germany also have a secondary school education, so for people of this era, they can also be counted as educated people. This made Fang Lang more certain that his guess was correct. Meanwhile, Professor Cotter was at home. A large man had entered the house through the backyard window. Under the light of the flashlight, I began to look around, because the order was very clear, I found the basement of the house and sneaked in to see what was going on inside. So, the big man was very efficient. After scanning the indoor layout with a flashlight, he groped in the direction of the stairwell. Because the location of the basement is usually placed near the stairwell, as expected, there is a small locked door under the stairs on the first floor. This kind of small door obviously couldn''t stop people coming, I saw him take out his small tool, and opened the small door in threes and fives. After walking down the stairs for a few steps, there was another door. But the switch of this door is on the outside, apparently to prevent someone from opening it from inside. After opening the door, the big man smelled an unpleasant smell of urine, which made people think that he had come to the toilet. But there was a wooden barrel at the door of the basement, and there was some excrement in the barrel. On the wall to the right is a dim electric light. Under the light is a large drawing table with an unfinished drawing on the table. There is a small shelf on the left, and there are many rolls of drawings on the shelf. By the left wall is a small single wooden bed. A man with long hair and beard is lying on the bed at this time. As for the age of the man, it is impossible to see clearly. The man''s left leg was bound by a pair of shackles, and the iron chain of the shackles hung down on the ground, connecting to an iron hook on the ground in the middle of the basement. Obviously this is a small cell. From the man''s hair and beard, it can be seen that this man has been locked here for at least four years. The big man was obviously taken aback when he saw the scene in front of him, but he didn''t act rashly. Hearing the man''s slight snoring, he judged that the man should be asleep. I was about to turn around and leave, after thinking about it, I went into the house and went to the shelf in the basement, and after pulling out a roll of drawings, I gently closed the door and left. What he didn''t notice was that when he closed the door, the man lying on the bed slowly opened his eyes, with a tense expression on his face, looking dodgingly at the closed door. The big man quickly exited the home of the professor in Kent County from the original road, and came to a car parked by the side of the road. When the people in the car saw him coming out, they didn''t make a sound, they drove the car and left the scene silently. Fang Lang, who was eating in the restaurant soon, saw Qi Qingshan nodding to himself from a distance. Fang Lang found an excuse to go to the toilet and came to Qi Qingshan. "Boss, our people went into the basement and found a cell inside, where a man was imprisoned, and the man was sleeping. According to your request, we didn''t disturb him. However, in addition to a bed in this cell, there is a large drawing table with unfinished drawings on the table. Our people pulled out a roll of completed drawings beside us, do you want to take a look. " Glancing at the Kent County professor and his wife who were still eating very happily at the table, Fang Lang revealed a chilly smile from the corner of his mouth. "Look at them, I''ll look at the blueprint." Finished speaking and walked out, Qi Qingshan nodded, winked at the person next to him, and followed Fang Lang to an unoccupied private room in the restaurant. There were two soldiers waiting in the private room. Seeing Fang Lang coming in, he got up quickly. Fang Lang nodded to the two of them, and one of them opened the blueprint on the table. Although Fang Lang doesn''t understand German, from the graphics, Fang Lang can still confirm that this is a mechanical drawing, but Fang Lang doesn''t know what part is drawn on the specific drawing. However, this is enough to confirm my guess. Fang Lang showed a satisfied smile, and said to Qi Qingshan beside him: "Let''s send the professor and his wife home together later, I''m going to visit the prisoner who was imprisoned by the two." "Yes, boss!" Qi Qingshan took two soldiers, put away the drawings and retreated. After Fang Lang washed his hands, he returned to the dining table with a smile on his face, and continued to talk to the two as if nothing had happened. But he stopped drinking. Soon, after the meal was over, Fang Lang offered to send the Kent couple home in person. The professor and his wife felt that they were taken seriously and readily agreed. But in the car, Fang Lang seemed a little silent. The Kent County professor and his wife drank a lot of wine today, and they were still talking and laughing in the back seat, and they didn''t feel anything unusual at all. After returning home, Fang Lang did not wait for the two of them, but got out of the car first and walked to the door of the professor''s house. When the Kent County couple walked to the door of the house, they saw Fang Lang standing at the door of the house waiting for the two of them. The professor smiled and said: "Mr. Fang, I am very satisfied with today''s dinner, you are so enthusiastic, just send it here." Fang Lang smiled and said: "Professor, won''t you invite me in for a glass of water?" Upon hearing this, the professor''s wife laughed and said: "It turns out that Mr. Fang is thirsty, please come in quickly, and I will pour water for you." After speaking, he stepped forward and opened the door. Fang Lang followed the two into the room, and walked directly to the main sofa seat in the living room, as if returning to his own home. This made the professor frowned, and cursed in his heart: "You bumpkin who doesn''t understand etiquette." There was still a gentle smile on his face, and he also sat down on the sofa. Looking at the gentle smile on the professor''s face, Fang Lang also smiled and said: "I wonder if Mr. Professor can introduce me to the gentleman in your basement." There was a "bang" sound of the water glass falling to the ground, and the water glass that the professor''s wife was carrying fell directly on the ground, and the faces of the professor and his wife changed drastically. After a while, the professor was the first to recover and said: "Mr. Fang, I don''t quite understand what you mean." Maybe hearing the professors calm words gave the professors wife confidence, and the professors wife immediately said in a stern voice: "What nonsense are you talking about, Mr. in the basement." Seeing the hard-mouthed expressions of the two of them, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Do I need my people to invite the gentleman from the basement up?" Professor''s wife immediately said sternly: "What do you want to do, this is my house, who allows you to mess around in my house." Madam said as she walked towards Fang Lang, pointing her finger at Fang Lang like a shrew cursing the street. Soon, a pistol beside her was pressed against her head. The cold touch, like a talisman, instantly pinned him in place, daring not to make a sound. Professor saw the lady who was pointed at by the gun, and then looked at the several big men in black behind him, and said with a little fear: "Who the **** are you and what are you going to do?" Hearing what the professor said, Fang Lang didn''t answer, but took a cigar out of his pocket unhurriedly, cut off the head of the cigar, and lit it slowly with a match. After the entire section of the cigar was completely ignited, he took a deep breath and let the aroma circle in the mouth before slowly exhaling. Looking at the professor couple in front of him with a playful expression, he said: "I am an officer of the British M16, and now I suspect that you are the remnants of the ****." When the two of them heard Fang Lang''s words, their faces changed drastically, and the professor''s wife knelt on the ground and said: "Sir, I misunderstood! We are not **!" Professor''s face was also pale, his hands on his knees were grasping his knees, his knuckles were a little white, and his legs were shaking non-stop. Fang Lang looked at him, shaking his head in fright and saying: "Sir, there must be some misunderstanding, we really are not **!" "Then how do you explain your abuse of lynching and imprisoning others?" Looking at the two of them with icy eyes, they immediately felt a little nervous about incontinence. The two heard Fang Lang directly tell the situation of imprisoning others, and they no longer had any luck in their hearts. Professor was also so frightened that he quickly fell from the sofa and fell to the ground, unable to stand up. (end of this chapter) Chapter 206: the truth Chapter 206 The Truth Fang Lang was not annoyed when he saw the unbearable appearance of the two, but continued to look at the professor in a flat tone and said: "What''s your name?" Professor swallowed his saliva with difficulty, and cold sweat the size of beans began to break out unconsciously on his forehead. He forced himself to calm down and said: "Oquy Kent." This answer was beyond Fang Lang''s expectation, he thought this name would be a guy who was imprisoned! "What''s the real job?" "Workers in a printing factory." Professor did not dare to hide anything. "What''s the name of the gentleman in the cell?" "Wilbur Serrano." "Tell me why you imprisoned him." Next, the professor and his wife spoke to each other, telling the truth like beans in a bamboo tube. It turned out that this young man named Wilbur Serrano was an assistant professor of mechanical engineering from Belgium at the University of Aachen, and he originally rented at the couple''s home in Kent. Because of the Third Reichs cleansing of the Jews, young Jewish people hid at home and did not dare to show their faces. At first, the professor and his wife were kind enough to help the young man hide from the police and hide the young man in the basement. Young people are very grateful to the professor and his wife. With Germany''s successive victories, the mentality of the couple slowly began to change, and they began to agree with the idea of ??**. At that time, another Jew was harbored in their home, which made them very embarrassed. They were afraid that others would find out that they were helping the Jews, and they were also afraid that after the young man was handed over, the two would be confessed. Therefore, for their own safety, the two thought of a way to lock the young man in the basement. And tell the other party that Jews are being hunted everywhere outside. If you go out, or if someone finds out that we are harboring you, we will all be finished. Therefore, the young man could only be locked in the basement, fearing that he could not help but run out and expose the professor and his wife. The young man also knew the situation outside, and agreed with the professor and his wife without hesitation. As time passed day by day, the professor''s wife found that the money given to them by the young people had been used up, and now it was equivalent to the professor and his wife taking care of the young people. This made Madam very dissatisfied, taking such a big risk to protect you, and asking us to spend our own money to support you, Madam Professor is not happy. Take the initiative to find young people and tell them that the life outside is very stressful and the couple''s life is very difficult. See if the young people still have money. Where do young people who are locked up in the basement get money for? After thinking about it for two days, I discussed with my husband and wife that I could use my professional knowledge to undertake some mechanical design work to earn money. Because I can''t pick up the job in my own name, I can only use the name of Mr. Kent. I have to say that this young man is really a genius. In the small basement, he did not forget to study and study. As Mr. Kent began to accept jobs outside, he was able to earn a lot of money. As Mr. Kent continued to accept jobs, he gradually gained a certain reputation. After gaining fame, more and more people came to her. One day a friend suggested that he could write his design concept as a paper and publish it. In this way, you will have a higher reputation in the future, and the price when you pick up the job will also increase. Mr. Kent heard that it made sense, and he asked young people to write papers while drawing. As the papers were published in professional journals, Mr. Kent''s reputation was growing. Both the husband and wife quit their jobs and began to live the life of a rich man at home. The young man in the basement has become a money-making tool for the two of them. As Mr. Kent became more and more famous in the industry, Aachen University actually sent him a letter of employment, wanting him to teach at the school. This made the Kent couple both happy and worried. After all, the husband and wife both know what level Mr. Kent is. Wouldn''t it be revealed if he really walked on the podium? Therefore, Mr. Kent refused repeatedly, and has been unwilling to teach at the University of Aachen. Later, in order to take advantage of Mr. Kents reputation, the school sent Mr. Kent a letter of employment as an honorary professor, and Mr. Kent was paid a fixed salary every month. However, the name of the University of Aachen must be noted in every subsequent paper, and Mr. Kent, a professor at the University of Aachen, should also be indicated when drawing. Mr. Kent will certainly not refuse such a favourable, cost-effective thing. In this way, Mr. Kent changed from an ordinary worker in a printing factory to an honorary professor at Aachen University. Because his thesis was novel and innovative, he became famous in the circle for a while, and many people came to ask for advice. This is worrying about Mr. Kent, so I have no choice but to talk about him, and start to learn some tricks. Gradually, everyone thought that he was unwilling to share the knowledge he had acquired, so no one came to ask him for advice. Not everyone doubted his level. However, every month he can come up with a paper to prove his strength, which makes the skeptics have to slowly dispel their doubts. With the end of the war, the United States and the Soviet Union also heard of his reputation and came to invite him. Mr. Kent dare not go to Meisu to work. After all, he knows how much he has, and he dare not release the young man in the basement. After all, if the other party knows that the war is over, everything that the professor and his wife have now will be lost, which is unacceptable to the two of them anyway. So, the professor directly rejected Meisu''s invitation. As the city of Aachen was occupied by the British occupation forces, the development of German industry was restricted, and there were no more jobs to come to the door. This made the professor and his wife anxious like ants on a hot pot. After all, they don''t have the habit of saving money. Of course, even if they have money now, it is useless. After all, the German mark has become waste paper. Just when the two were in a difficult situation and were thinking about whether to go out again and get back their original jobs, Fang Lang came to the door. At first, the professor was also worried that he would reveal his secrets, but when he heard that the other party was from a small country like Brazil, his heart became active again, especially when he heard that he had quoted a million dollars to build a laboratory, and the other party did not blink. Professor felt that his chance to make a fortune had come. It''s a pity that things turned around too quickly. Before his deception plan started, the other party had already discovered his biggest secret. Especially when the other party told him that it was the British intelligence agency and suspected that they were the remnants of the Communist Party. The whole person immediately lost the ability to think, looking at the black hole of the opponent''s muzzle, he couldn''t help but not believe it! The United States and the Soviet Union were both polite and polite when they came to invite them. How could they just hold a gun to their foreheads to ask questions like they are now. He can only explain the whole thing clearly, proving that he is definitely not a remnant of the persecution, but a good person who protected the Jews. Hoping to be forgiven. Fang Lang thought that the one in the basement was the real genius mechanical designer, but he didn''t expect that the process of this matter would be so tortuous and complicated. After understanding what happened, Fang Lang also had to lament that good fortune made people. After ordering someone to lock the couple into the room, Fang Lang took the key himself and opened the door to the basement. Looking at the man who seemed panicked and shivering in the corner because a large group of people broke into the basement, Fang Lang was filled with sympathy for a while. "Mr. Wilbur Serrano, are you free?" The man didn''t react for a long time after hearing Fang Lang''s words. Fang Lang said again: "Mr. Wilbur Serrano, **Germany has perished, and the persecution of the Jews has also ended. Congratulations! You are free." After a long while, the man in the corner said cautiously: "Is what you said true? Who are you?" "Of course it''s true. My name is Fang Lang. As for who I am, I think we can go out and clean up. How about talking slowly after we''re full?" I dont know if the man suffered from certain mental illnesses due to his long-term imprisonment. He seemed very timid and dared not move. Seeing this scene, Fang Lang waved to the people around him, motioning for everyone to back down. He took out the key of the shackles and let him see it and said: "I''m here now to help you unshackle your feet, don''t you need to be afraid?" It may be because there are only two people left in the room, Serrano is a little more courageous. Fang Lang stepped forward lightly and opened the shackles on the opponent''s feet, and saw that the skin where the opponent was shackled was purple. Fortunately, the entire left foot was not purple. Looks like the foot can still be used normally. Fang Lang looked at the closed environment in the basement, it was not much different from a confinement room! Thinking that a normal person could not stand being locked up in a confinement room for three days, but the young man in front of him has been imprisoned for nearly five years. It should be a miracle that he hasn''t gone crazy yet! Even if this was a complete stranger, Fang Lang couldn''t help feeling pity in his heart. Looking at the drawings on the drawing table in front of him, Fang Lang asked: "Do you pass the time by drawing pictures every day?" The young man looked like a shy little girl, and said evasively: Sometimes I also write papers. I don''t know what to ask, Fang Lang actually felt a little bit sorry for the young man in front of him, but he couldn''t be called a young man anymore, because in fact he was older than Fang Lang. Looking at Serrano''s skinny body, Fang Lang helped his arm and said: "Let''s go! Let''s get out of this cage first, and then talk slowly outside." After speaking, Serrano walked out of the basement with a strange smell all over his body. Serrano, who came to the living room, unconsciously looked at the surrounding environment like a little mouse out of a hole. I didn''t see the Kent couple, so I didn''t forget to ask Fang Lang in a low voice: "Mr. and Mrs. Kent?" "They''re in the room, it won''t be too late to see them after you tidy yourself up first." After finishing speaking, Fang Lang instructed Qi Qingshan: "Let someone boil some water, ask Mr. Serrano to take a good bath first, and ask Mr. Kent to prepare suitable clothes for him." "Please don''t hurt the Kent couple? They protected me." Serrano is obviously a smart man, he saw that the Kent couple must be controlled. Unexpectedly, Serrano would say this, Qi Qingshan couldn''t help but said: "Don''t you hate them? The war is over long ago, and they continue to detain you in the basement for their own self-interest, without seeing the light of day." Serrano shook his head and said: "They are also protecting me." This made Fang Lang a little worried, this kid won''t be suffering from Stockholm syndrome! If this is the case, it will be a little troublesome. After thinking about it, he tried to say: "After freedom, do you want to continue living with them?" Unexpectedly, Serrano asked with a little panic: "Aren''t you taking me with you?" (end of this chapter) Chapter 207: cruel Chapter 207 Cruel Fang Lang didn''t expect that Serrano would directly say that he would follow him. Originally, his purpose was to hire this talented mechanical designer, but Fang Lang couldn''t force others to follow him. In this case, how is it different from the Kent couple who imprisoned Serrano? Signaling the other party to sit on the sofa, Fang Lang said sincerely: "I said, you are free. You can tidy yourself up, and then we will take you to the hospital for a physical examination. If there is no problem, you can go home and see your family. " "I have no family." Serrano''s eyes began to turn red, and his voice trembled slightly. "Isn''t your hometown Belgium? Didn''t your family die before the war?" Fang Lang is not sure if the Kent County couple deliberately deceived Serrano in order to better control him. So, I still have doubts. My family members came to Germany to see me, but I was taken away by those devils, so I hid. Speaking of this, Serrano was trembling all over, tears streaming down unconsciously. Fang Lang didn''t expect such a situation, so he quickly comforted: "Maybe they''re just locked up, and I''ll help you find them." As a result, Serrano cried out directly, intermittently saying: At that time, my younger brother was shot and killed by them when he wanted to escape. After my parents were captured, they were hanged in a concentration camp a week later. I saw their photos. Fang Fanglang really doesn''t know what to say here, this is a proper template for human tragedy! However, this situation was also a common scene in Germany at that time. For a while, Fang Lang didn''t know how to comfort this young man with a rough fate, and the soldiers around him looked at Serrano with pity in their eyes. "Do you have no other relatives?" Fang Lang really wanted this genius mechanic to go with him, but he didn''t want to repay the favor, so he decided to ask the other party''s situation clearly. Seeing the big man crying like a child, crying while crying, Fang Lang had nothing to say. can only say: "I heard that Mr. Kent is a genius in machine tool design, and I wanted to hire him to work for me, but you were rescued by accident. If you really have nowhere to go, I can offer you a job. Or, can I hire you, a truly talented machine tool designer, to work for me? " Fang Lang was a little worried about Serrano''s mental illness due to his long-term detention. So I want to highlight his value as much as possible, so that he can regain his self-confidence as soon as possible and return to the normal life track. After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Serrano stopped crying, looked up at Fang Lang and said: "I''ll go with you." Since the other party has made a decision, Fang Lang will not say anything more hypocritically, nodded and said: "Okay, pack yourself up and come with me!" Seeing the back of Serrano who was taken by Qi Qingshan to tidy him up, Fang Lang''s eyes were complicated. He didn''t expect to encounter such a thing during this trip to Aachen. Came to the room of the Kent couple, and saw the two shivering squatting in the corner, Fang Lang didn''t know what to say for a while, after all, the two were originally out of help. After a while, he sighed and said: "Mr. Serrano has indicated that he does not want to hold you accountable for keeping him captive. After our investigation, you can also rule out the suspicion of **. I want to say that your later behavior is very disgusting, but since the victim said that he will not pursue it, we will not continue to pursue it. However, we will take away Mr. Serrano and all his materials and drawings. I hope that you will be able to start a new life in a down-to-earth manner in the future. I also hope that you will forget about the existence of Mr. Serrano. Once we hear any news about Mr. Serrano, our people will come to your door and say hello to your couple! Understand? " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, the two of them realized that their lives were saved, and thanked them in a hurry: "Thank you sir, thank you sir." It took a long time to see that Serrano had finished cleaning, and came out in a suit of inappropriate clothes. His hair and beard were still a mess, but obviously he couldn''t deal with it now. Under the guidance of Serrano, he packed up all his drawings and papers in this house, and after everything was processed, he took Serrano and left the prison where he was imprisoned for nearly five years. The prison of time. After a night of rest in Aachen, everyone flew back to Stuttgart by plane early the next morning. Originally, Fang Lang was afraid that his impersonation of the British Intelligence Agency would be exposed, and he wanted to fly back overnight. Unfortunately, night flights in this era are too dangerous. If something goes wrong, he will lose his way and have to give up. Fortunately, there was nothing to say all night. Obviously, the Kent County couple were more nervous than Fang Lang when their secret was discovered, and they didn''t think about the flaws in it. After returning to the hotel in Stuttgart, he arranged for someone to trim Serrano''s hair and beard, finally making this talented mechanical designer no longer look like a homeless man. A good person was arranged to take him to the hospital for a physical examination. Fang Lang received him in the hotel, Mr. Ludwig Folger who came to return. "Mr. Fang, we have found a total of 40 original Mauser factory designers who are willing to follow me to Brazil. We are ready to leave at any time." Fang Lang was very satisfied with Folger''s efficiency, and said with a smile: "Did everyone bring their family members? Remember to ask everyone to only bring their own valuables. We have prepared a house for everyone in the urban area of ??Sao Paulo, Brazil. There is everything in it, and you can really move in with your bags. " In fact, Fang Lang''s so-called ready houses are actually resettlement communities built when the factory was demolished in Sao Paulo. It is a seven-storey small western-style building built in the Wei style. Don''t look at the small size of the building, but the layout of the house in this era can definitely be regarded as a novel layout. Used as an expert building, it will never appear to be cheap. The engineers who arrived at the car factory in Brazil in the early stage were very satisfied. However, these are also temporary residences. After the construction of the factory is completed, the current residence will be built for everyone near the factory. Of course, these expert buildings are not given away for free. You need to deduct a part of the provident fund from everyone''s salary every month as the house payment. If you have worked for the company for 20 years, the property rights of this house will belong to you. If it is less than 20 years old, the company can use the original price to recover, or the household can make up the price difference according to the market price. This is obviously Fang Lang''s policy to bind experts. Originally, Fang Lang was worried that this policy would cause dissatisfaction among these experts. The result was just the opposite. The experts were very satisfied with this policy, which is why Fang Lang''s own thinking has not changed from his modern hometown. How can there be such a good thing in a capitalist society! Even if it is an expert building, it will let you live in it when you are working in the company. If you leave, you will take it back. It is a good thing that Fang Lang will automatically obtain property rights after working for 20 years like Fang Lang now. "As soon as the plane is arranged, we can set off, but what about the place where we work?" Unexpectedly, Mr. Folger turned out to be impatient, thinking that he could start work as soon as possible. Fang Lang smiled and said: "Well, let Qi Qingshan arrange a plane for you to go to Brazil later. You want to remind everyone that its cold in Germany now, but its summer in Brazil, so pay attention to your health and dont get sick right after you get off the plane. Dont worry about work. We have left an empty factory in Brazil for you to do some theoretical research first. What kind of equipment does the factory need at that time? I still need to wait for you to return to Brazil and help me sort out a list. After we purchase it back, we can officially start work. " Folger is right when he thinks about it. Now they start from scratch in the past, and the early stage may be more difficult, but this can be regarded as drawing on a blank sheet of paper, and they can let them play freely, which makes Mr. Folger very happy. As for the weather, Folger doesn''t care. He doesn''t like the cold winter in Germany. Many family members are looking forward to the sunshine and beaches in Brazil. The two were talking, Qi Qingshan hurriedly knocked on the door and came in. Seeing that Mr. Folger was there, he nodded and came directly to Fang Lang. Fang Lang looked at Qi Qingshan in a hurry, and frowned. He had been an adjutant by Fang Lang''s side for so long, and it really never happened that he opened the door and came in without waiting for his response after knocking on the door like today. Knowing that something urgent might have happened, Fang Lang said calmly: "What is going on in a hurry, you have to be calm when you do big things." Qi Qingshan glanced at Mr. Folger, ignoring politeness, bent down and put his mouth next to Fang Lang''s ear and said: "Paul, who just returned to Stuttgart, just had a car accident and was sent to the hospital." This was really an unexpected situation. After hearing Qi Qingshan''s report, Fang Lang thought for a while and asked: "do you died?" "Our people saw the collision and flew out, and we have to wait for the hospital''s inspection results for the specific situation." Qi Qingshan seemed a little impatient. After all, this guy Paul was related to a treasure, although they had already focused on the burial site. However, no one can determine the authenticity of the treasure without seeing the real treasure for a day. After Fang Lang heard Qi Qingshan''s words, he seemed calmer, and said in a leisurely manner: "I see, now you can help Mr. Folger and other experts arrange the plane. Mr. Folger and their affairs are much more important than your little matter. As for what happened to Paul, it is useless for us to rush now. When you go out, call Zhuang Xintian for me, and I will let him handle Paul''s affairs. " Perhaps it was Fang Lang''s calm and confident look that infected Qi Qingshan and made him calm down quickly. At this time, he smiled embarrassedly at Mr. Folger and said: "I''m sorry, Mr. Folger, I was the one to be rude, please follow me, I will help you arrange the flight now." Folger didn''t understand what happened, but it was hard for him to inquire about the boss''s affairs. Seeing the boss''s calm face, it probably wasn''t a big deal. stood up and smiled: "It''s okay, Mr. Qi, thanks for your hard work." After finishing speaking, he turned to Fang Lang and said: "Boss, let''s set off. See you in Brazil." Fang Lang got up and shook hands with Mr. Folger and said: "Bon voyage, see you in Brazil." (end of this chapter) Chapter 208: Accident Chapter 208 Accident After seeing off Mr. Folger, Fang Lang sat on the sofa in the hotel and lit a cigar, lost in thought. After a long while, Zhuang Xintian''s "report" woke Fang Lang up from his contemplation. Fang Lang was not polite, and said to Zhuang Xintian: "Did you hear about that Paul getting into a car accident?" "Yes, boss." "What do you think of this matter?" Zhuang Xintian was taken aback by this question, and couldn''t understand what Fang Lang meant for a while. This unexpected situation, how can I see it? But since Fang Lang asked, he could only express his feelings. "This accident happened at the wrong time." Hearing Zhuang Xintian''s words, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Yes! The timing is too coincidental. You should investigate immediately whether this incident was an accident, who was responsible, and investigate his identity and background. At the same time, arrange for people to sneak into the hospital to investigate the actual injury of Paul. Also, you need to monitor the other party''s movement 24 hours a day, be careful that this guy is a golden cicada. " Now Fang Lang doesn''t care whether this is his home court, this sudden unexpected situation really disrupted everyone''s arrangement. If this Paul died in this accident, Fang Lang had no choice but to control Leo and see what was in the buried place. In this way, Fang Lang can still obtain this batch of wealth, but Fang Lang feels that things are definitely not that simple. If this batch of wealth can really be found by them so easily, they have to consider whether the Gestapo will be too watery. Moreover, Paul''s behavior of recruiting people also made Fang Lang full of doubts. This kind of secret should not be known to everyone, but the other party just did it. Fang Lang didn''t believe that the other party was someone who didn''t know how to keep it secret. Even among his own subordinates, there are only a few people who are responsible for specific follow-up, knowing that they may have discovered a treasure. Zhuang Xintian was taken aback when he heard Fang Lang''s words, and then reacted immediately: "Boss, do you mean to suspect that this car accident was not an accident at all? It was the other party''s plan to get out?" "I''m not sure, but there is always no harm in investigating more clearly, right?" Fang Lang was not sure either. He was not from the intelligence department after all, and he didn''t know the means and methods of these guys. However, the spy war drama in his previous life told him not to believe the accident of any agent. Think about the fact that agents who feign death and escape often appear in American dramas. No one dares to say whether the current German Gestapo has mastered this skill. The most important thing is that Fang Lang''s intuition told him that things are not that simple. Now Fang Lang believes in his intuition very much, so he will not let this Paul get away so easily. "Yes, boss, I''ll investigate it myself right away." With Fang Lang''s instructions, Zhuang Xintian turned around to carry out the order without hesitation. Watching Zhuang Xintian turn and leave again, Fang Lang fell into deep thought again. He tried to use his brain to bring into the opponent''s body to figure out what he was planning. But the information is really too little, and now I don''t even know the other party''s real name, and even the identity of the Gestapo is calculated based on Leo''s identity. But Fang Lang believes that as long as he doesn''t let this guy out of his sight, he won''t be able to escape his palm. But Fang Lang is not very sure whether the other party can escape. It seems that we need to deploy surveillance around the hospital, and we must not let him escape. Soon, Zhuang Xintian came back in a hurry. Fang Lang thought something serious had happened, so he only listened to Zhuang Xintianhui''s report: "Boss, the investigation is clear, this time it might really be an accident. The vehicle that hit him was a vehicle of the French occupation army, because the vehicle of the French occupation army hit pedestrians on the road, and now some people went to protest outside the headquarters of the French occupation army! " Hearing this, Fang Lang frowned. Could it be that his intuition was wrong, it''s impossible! "Who hit him, have you figured it out?" "I heard that it was a young officer who sent Paul to the hospital and then left. There is still no way to confirm the identity of the other party. " It is not easy to investigate the identity of Zhuang Xintian, the French occupying army. After all, this is the territory of the French now, and it is very sensitive to check their identities. "Have you confirmed Paul''s injury?" "It was said that it was a fracture. Our people confirmed the identity of the injured through the opening and closing of the door of the ward by doctors and nurses. It was indeed Paul. If necessary, we can pretend to be his friend and check with the doctor about the injury! " Hearing that Zhuang Xintian wanted to go to the hospital to find a doctor to confirm his injury, Fang Lang hurriedly stopped him. "No, how do you know that the doctor is not theirs? You must know that this is Germany, their own country, and we are the guests. If you are not careful, you will startle the snake. In this way, you go to the camera to see if you have a chance to take a photo of the person who hit him. I will find a way to confirm the identity of the person. You will deploy your manpower from now on and start to deploy and control around the hospital. We must not let this guy get away from us. " "Yes, boss." Things did exceed Fang Lang''s expectations, and the current situation is really getting more and more confusing. However, the more this happened, the more interesting Fang Lang found it. This feeling of fighting spirit was something he had never experienced in his previous life. If he used his mind in his previous life, he might not have thought so much. I dont know if its the reason for his rebirth, which made his brain much brighter than before, his thinking is very clear, and his mind has become calm. I am no longer as easily affected by the environment, emotions, or other people''s words as in my previous life. This is not the original body''s personality traits. Fang Lang is very sure that this is the chemical reaction of the two people''s spirits coming together. Of course, this must also be related to his current identity and life experience in this life. I thought too much about things in my previous life, and I got headaches. But now the more he thought about it, the clearer his mind became. This kind of feeling makes him very superior, and vaguely makes him find a feeling of being a detective. However, he had met the other party face to face, so it was a pity that he couldn''t come forward to see the other party''s situation in person. Time is passing unknowingly, and everything seems very normal. The next day, Fang Lang, who had just listened to Polman''s report on the recruitment of aircraft designers, received new information again. "Boss, that Leo just went to the hospital." The news brought by Qi Qingshan aroused Fang Lang''s interest again. "Hasn''t he been hiding in the cabin on the mountain? How did he know that Paul was injured?" "Early this morning, he voluntarily went down the mountain and returned home. I don''t know if the two had any agreement. After staying at home for less than ten minutes, he entered the city of Stuttgart. After taking a break in a small park in the urban area, he went directly to the hospital. " Fang Lang already had a judgment in his heart. Paul must have spread the news that he was injured and hospitalized. It seems that there must be people from them in the hospital. At the same time, the small park where Leo rested must be a point of information transmission. Maybe the two parties agreed on a time to meet, but Paul did not show up on time, so Leo started to go down the mountain to look for it. I didn''t find any clues from Leo''s house, so I went directly to the park in the city. In the park, Leo received the news that Paul was accidentally injured and hospitalized, so he went directly to the hospital to confirm the situation. Only in this way can we explain clearly why Leo left the cabin and went down the mountain on his own initiative. Of course, if this injury was planned, it is also possible. But Fang Lang feels that this should not be planned, at least not within the scope of Leo''s plan. Because, if within the scope of Leo''s plan, it is possible for him to go back to his own home, it would be abnormal to go to the park to rest. However, if the injury in this car accident was really an accident, some of Fang Lang''s original guesses would be overturned, and things fell into a deadlock again for a while. "We will wait and see. If Paul''s injury is true, the actions of the Rebels and Leo should be suspended. Don''t relax your monitoring of Leo and the Rebels. If you find any abnormal situation, report to me immediately. " The progress of the matter was getting more and more interesting. Fang Lang had to overthrow the original assumption again, and began to re-analyze the matter. However, things once again exceeded Fang Lang''s expectations. That afternoon, Leo did not go into hibernation as Fang Lang expected. "You mean, after Leo left the hospital, he didn''t return to the cabin on the mountain, but directly contacted the rebels?" Hearing the news surprised Fang Lang a little. Seeing Qi Qingshan who came to report hesitant to speak, he smiled and said: "If you have any ideas, just say it! Why are you hesitating!" Mr. Qi Qingshan made a decision and said: "Boss, do you think this Leo will cooperate with these rebels and dig out the treasure directly while Paul is in the hospital!" Looking at Qi Qingshan''s expression, Fang Lang smiled. He understood that it took courage for Qi Qingshan to say such things. After all, he suspected that Paul''s subordinates would betray their chiefs for these wealth. Similarly as Fang Lang''s subordinate, if Qi Qingshan can have this idea, will he betray his chief for wealth? When such a question is raised, whether it will arouse the chief''s suspicion of him is indeed a question that needs to be considered. However, Qi Qingshan still spoke out. "Do you think that if Leo wanted to swallow the wealth behind Paul''s back, would he contact the Rebels? Besides Paul, he is the only one who knows the location of the treasure, why didn''t he secretly dig the treasure by himself, instead of going to join these rebels? " Fang Lang''s words made Qi Qingshan obviously ponder again. "Didn''t you say that Paul knew that we were watching them? Could it be that Leo was afraid that he would be robbed by us if he went to dig the treasure alone, so the people who brought the rebels were guarding against us!" Actually, Qi Qingshan''s suspicion is not unreasonable, but Fang Lang now feels more and more that things are very strange. Are these guys all this selfless? Seeing the treasure right in front of them, they are not even tempted. Instead, they are all looking for their accomplices. This made him wonder whether this treasure was the gold and silver treasure he wanted. It would be embarrassing if it contained arms and weapons. But after thinking about it, Fang Lang denied this guess. After all, if it was munitions, Paul and the others shouldn''t be so cautious. Instead, they might as well let everyone look at the munitions openly. Or simply live in this hidden arsenal, even if an enemy comes over, don''t be afraid. (end of this chapter) Chapter 209: flaw Chapter 209 Flaws Fang Lang thought about the possibilities one by one, but was denied by himself one after another. Now he himself is full of doubts, and he doesn''t understand what these guys are thinking. To be more precise, what is going on in the heart of this Gestapo named Paul? Looking at Qi Qingshan''s face full of doubts, and smiling as he waited for his answer, Fang Lang was very happy, because now he is no longer the only one thinking about problems. "No, since last time they went in and got a little out, and no one did anything to them, he should know that if he sneaked in alone and took out a little secretly, we wouldn''t do anything. In this way, it is not a high-risk operation for him to secretly take out a little every day. Unfortunately, this is in Germany. We are not good at conducting blatant investigations. Many simpler and direct methods cannot be used by us, and our hands are tied. " When Qi Qingshan heard Fang Lang''s emotion, he agreed again and again: "That''s right! It''s easier to just send troops and push them over like in Natal." Fang Lang smiled and said: "It doesn''t matter, we just treat it as training the team and training the mind. Now that Leo has contacted the Rebels, and obviously received some order from Paul, let''s see what they will do next. We have plenty of time, don''t rush. Since they have passed on orders, they must take action. We just need to keep an eye on them and see when they start to move. " Due to Paul''s car accident in the past few days, Fang Lang''s energy has been involved a lot, but other things have not stopped. Mr. Serrano has passed the doctor''s examination, and there is nothing serious about his body, but he does have real mental problems. However, although some people have begun to study mental illness, it is far from as detailed as later generations. Simply put, the doctor saw that Mr. Serrano had mental problems. However, I don''t know how to classify this mental problem and how to treat it. What puzzled Fang Lang the most was that he didn''t know if it was because Fang Lang rescued him, but now Mr. Serrano trusted Fang Lang very much. It can''t even be simply described as trust, it should be called dependence. This made Fang Lang very awkward. If it was a beautiful woman, Fang Lang would be very happy. However, the elders can''t wait to stay by Fang Lang''s side all the time, which makes Fang Lang very speechless. Fortunately, as long as a task is assigned to him, he will execute it very seriously. For example, now he is interviewing a mechanical engineering designer for Fang Lang. The professional ability he showed shocked the two old gentlemen who recommended the Kent professor to Fang Lang. repeatedly asked Fang Lang where he found such an excellent designer. Because he was worried that the name Professor Kent would arouse unpleasant memories of Mr. Serrano, Fang Lang could only ask everyone not to mention the name Professor Kent again. Serrano didn''t seem to care and told everyone that he was an assistant to the professor in Kent. Reassured many mechanics. In order to start his own machine tool industry as soon as possible, Fang Lang has asked Brazil''s Fangyuan Group to start the construction of a machine tool factory. Now we are waiting for Serrano to recruit enough manpower, and then go back to start the development of machine tools as soon as possible. Unfortunately, because of Serrano''s mental problems, Fang Lang had to hire another professional manager to manage the machine tool factory for him. At the same time, Polman has officially completed the construction of the core team of the aircraft factory. I dont know what Polman promised these aircraft designers, but both the Horton Brothers and Dr. Tan Ke agreed to his invitation. What shocked Fang Lang the most was that Dr. Tan Ke directly led most of the research team of Falk Wolf to Stuttgart. For this reason, Fang Lang spent a huge sum of money to hold a grand welcome dinner in the hotel that night. In order not to attract the attention of the German and French governments, Colonel Chatham and Mayor Jonas were not invited to the dinner. All participants are leaders in the German aircraft industry. At the same time, it is also the talent foundation of Fang Lang''s future aviation empire. Early the next morning, Fang Lang asked Qi Qingshan to arrange for these excellent aircraft designers to board the plane to Brazil first in the name of ordinary skilled workers in the automobile industry. Fang Lang couldn''t care about whether the German and French authorities, or even the United States, Britain, and the Soviet Union, had discovered such a big movement. But now that they can board their own plane and fly to Brazil, I believe this is at least acquiesced by these countries. As for whether he will arrange for people to shoot down these planes in mid-air, Fang Lang doesn''t know now, and he doesn''t care so much. If you don''t send everyone back to Brazil as soon as possible, Fang Lang is very worried that there will be long nights and dreams. Hiding not far outside the airport, quietly watching the plane take off safely and out of his sight, Fang Lang felt a little relieved. "Boss, the plane has already left, should we go back to the hotel or where?" Qi Qingshan asked Fang Lang, who sat in the back row and hadn''t made a sound for more than half an hour. Fang Lang smiled and joked: "You said that I poached so many people from Germany. Will the German government blacklist me and ban me from entering the country?" This is of course just a joke. Fang Lang''s poaching behavior is not even a drop in the bucket compared to Meisu. However, Fang Lang felt that what he did was beautiful for no reason. Unfortunately, Qi Qingshan couldn''t understand Fang Lang''s evil taste at all. Hearing that Fang Lang was worried about whether Germany would restrict Fang Lang''s entry, he thought carefully for a while before saying: "Boss, we are a member of the Allied Powers. As a defeated country, Germany is not qualified to comment on our actions. If Germany dares to blacklist you and prohibit you from entering the country. I think all the fighters of our First Fleet will let them understand what is a victorious nation. " "Haha. You kid, you can''t even hear the joke. It was too late for the Germans to thank me. I am saving their people from fire and water, so how could they target me. Alright, let''s go back! Take a look outside the hospital. Things in Germany are almost done. When Paul and his actions are over, I have to rush back to the United States to run for our aircraft carrier! " Fang Lang leaned on the soft cushion in the back row, smiling relaxedly. "Okay, boss." Speechless all the way, Fang Lang''s convoy soon arrived at the hospital where Paul was. Driving the vehicle into a small three-story building opposite the hospital, Fang Lang, led by Qi Qingshan, entered a small room on the third floor by the road. "Boss, this is our monitoring point opposite the hospital. That Paul is in the ward with the fourth window on the left on the second floor opposite. As long as the other party opens the curtains, our monitoring point can be condescending and monitor Paul''s every move in the room. " As he spoke, he handed Fang Lang a telescope. Fang Lang took the telescope, looked at the direction of the sunlight outside and said: "Did you all use telescopes to observe?" The two soldiers in the room hurriedly stood up and said: "Yes, sir." Looking at the two obviously tired fighters, Fang Lang stepped forward and patted the two of them on the shoulders and said: "Thank you for your hard work, I will give you a large bonus when you return to Brazil, and then I will give you a big vacation and have a good rest." The two soldiers quickly replied: "Thank you sir!" Fang Lang said to Qi Qingshan again: "I was negligent. We have a lot of things to do in Germany, and the tasks are heavy. There is only one platoon of people, which will really make everyone very hard. When we go back next time, we will send a telegram to transfer another platoon to Germany." "Yes, boss, I will send a telegram when I get back." Fang Lang held the telescope again and said: "Use a telescope to observe the target. If there is light shining from the opposite side, the other party may find the reflection of the telescope. For the sake of safety, you have to use a piece of mesh to cover the lens to avoid being discovered by others. As for the kind of gauze to use, you need to experiment more. I just took a look. Our side is located on the south side of the hospital. Fortunately, this place is north of the Tropic of Cancer, so the light will not directly shine on our side. But we have to be careful. In the morning and evening, when the sun slantly hits the opposite window, when there is reflection, the sight line of our monitoring point will be affected. At this time, the soldiers at other monitoring points should pay special attention. Because this time is the time when the enemy is most likely to disappear from our noses. " Qi Qingshan and the two soldiers obviously didn''t expect Fang Lang to make so many suggestions just after taking over the telescope. Thinking about it, they are all good words, which made several people sigh with emotion, the chief is really knowledgeable. Fang Lang hid behind the window, used a telescope, and looked at the ward that Qi Qingshan was pointing to from the gap in the curtains. Just by taking a look, Fang Lang felt something was wrong. While observing, Fang Lang asked: "Qingshan, what you have investigated is that the other party has a broken bone, right?" "Yes Boss!" "Have you figured out where the fracture is?" "Say it''s the left leg and the left hand." Fang Lang heard Qi Qingshan''s answer, didn''t say anything, but observed carefully. The person in the room was indeed Paul. At this time, Paul was not lying on the hospital bed, but was walking with a limp by the side of the bed with one arm hanging. Anyone who looks at it will look seriously injured. But Fang Lang frowned when he saw him limping. I also learned how the other party walked, and took two steps, but just this learning made Fang Lang laugh. put down the telescope and said: "This kid is really not injured, at least his legs are not injured." After Qi Qingshan and the two soldiers in the room heard Fang Lang''s words, they all looked at Fang Lang in surprise, and then picked up the binoculars and looked at Paul. I saw the other party limping while holding on to the edge of the bed. Qi Qingshan looked at it for more than two minutes, but didn''t see any problems. He put down the binoculars and asked Fang Lang: "Boss, I don''t see any problem? His legs are lame, how can you tell that his legs are not injured?" Fang Lang glared at Qi Qingshan and said: "Look a little more clearly, is this how you walk with your left leg injured? Try to imitate his steps yourself, and see which leg is under the force. " Hearing this, Qi Qingshan picked up the binoculars to look over again, imitated his footsteps and walked a few times, then immediately said: "Hey old boy, I was almost fooled by him, it seems that he knows we are watching him! He is still pretending in the ward. This left leg is injured, and he is still using his left leg to bear the force. " Hearing Qi Qingshan''s words, Fang Lang also laughed. Most people see someone walking with a limp, and they can tell at a glance that the person''s leg is injured. But which leg was injured, I won''t go into it. Of course, if it is particularly serious, it can be seen that the leg is being dragged, which is not counted! I can only say that this Gestapo named Paul is a secret. Let Fang Lang discover his flaws. (end of this chapter) Chapter 210: thrilling Chapter 210 Thrilling Qi Qingshan had a new understanding of the insidiousness and cunning of the Gestapo, and at the same time, became more puzzled. "Boss, what do you think this guy wants to do? He was obviously not injured, yet he wanted to pretend to be injured and be hospitalized at this time, so that his subordinates could move around under our noses. I really can''t figure it out. " Fang Lang was also very curious about this question. Since he knew that someone was watching him, he deliberately exposed himself to the sun. According to Fang Lang''s analysis, there is only one purpose for doing this, and it must be to attract attention and cover other people''s actions. However, the actions of his subordinate Leo and others are also under his surveillance, so he must be very clear. Even if he doesn''t know, Leo and the others are under his surveillance. As long as Leo visited him in the hospital, he would definitely enter the surveillance range. He couldn''t have imagined this, but he ordered Leo to contact the rebels. Wouldn''t this directly expose everyone? Just when Fang Lang was thinking about this question. The soldiers under his command whispered: "Sir, there is a situation." Fang Lang quickly raised his binoculars and looked in the direction of the hospital, and soon saw a Willys jeep parked at the entrance of the hospital, and a French officer in a woolen coat walked into the hospital. It is actually not surprising that a French officer came to the hospital. Fang Lang didn''t pay much attention at first, especially when he saw the French officer holding a gift in his hand, Fang Lang knew that he must be visiting the patient. But Fang Lang soon stopped thinking so. Because the officer''s destination turned out to be Paul''s ward. Fang Lang saw in the telescope that the officer put the gift on the bedside and chatted with Paul. It didn''t last long, only five minutes at most, and the officer got up and left. However, Fang Lang couldn''t see the front of the officer during the whole process, which made Fang Lang very annoyed. He didn''t know whether the other party was on purpose or not. In Fang Lang''s mind, he believed that the other party must have intended it, and Fang Lang''s intuition told him that this officer had a problem, a big problem. What Fang Lang didn''t understand was how could a French officer have contact with the German Gestapo? If the other party is a German spy, he shouldn''t come to the hospital wearing a military uniform! Isn''t this directly exposed? Since he had doubts about the French officer, Fang Lang did not hesitate, and directly ordered Qi Qingshan: "This officer has a problem, immediately arrange someone to follow him. And, find a way to take a frontal photo of this officer so that we can confirm the identity of the other party. " Qi Qingshan also knew the importance of the matter, and immediately turned and went out to order the soldiers to follow. But everyone waited outside the hospital for a long time, but no officer appeared again, which made everyone very puzzled. After giving the order and returning, Qi Qingshan saw this situation and said anxiously: "Boss, why don''t our people go into the hospital to see what this person is doing inside, and whether he has already run away." Fang Lang thought for a while, but suppressed the impulse in his heart and said: "Don''t worry, let''s wait, it''s not time for us to do it yet, don''t take the initiative to expose your existence. We continue to wait. " The other party must know that someone nearby is guarding them, but it is hard to say whether they know it is their own group. After all, on the bright side, his identity is just a Brazilian businessman, and he should not be able to track and monitor these Gestapo. However, Fang Lang dare not underestimate the Gestapo''s ability. If one''s own person reveals his identity, it is easy to be found out. I am not the French occupying force, and I have no law enforcement power in Germany, so the other party does not have to be afraid of me at all. Maybe there will be a fight right away, and it is possible to kill yourself. Thinking of the identity of the opponent''s French occupying army, Fang Lang suddenly thought of another question and asked quickly: "Has the French officer who injured Paul been found? Have you taken any pictures?" Qi Qingshan reacted quickly when he heard Fang Lang''s question, but he shook his head and said: "There is no news yet, but we have found a witness to the car accident at that time. Our people are taking him to observe near the headquarters of the occupation army for the past two days. If we find a target, we will report it as soon as possible." Hearing Qi Qingshan''s words, Fang Lang shook his head helplessly. It was not his home field, and his work was indeed restricted everywhere. After thinking for a while, he said: "Didn''t our surveillance personnel see each other clearly?" "Boss, our people didn''t dare to get too close to each other, and kept a certain distance. At that time, the incident happened too suddenly, and our people had already quickly approached the accident site. But the other party directly carried Paul into the car and drove directly to the hospital. All our guys could see was a Willys Jeep. " Hearing Qi Qingshan''s answer, Fang Lang looked at Willis Jeep at the entrance of the hospital downstairs and fell into thought. Thinking in his heart, the person who came may be the one who injured Paul at that time. If this was an accident, it would make sense for the perpetrator to come to visit the wounded. It''s a pity that Fang Lang didn''t believe it was an accident at all, so the identity of this person began to become very suspicious. "Sir, that Leo is here." The soldier in charge of monitoring suddenly whispered. At this time, several people were observing the direction of the hospital with binoculars, so they all saw passers-by outside the hospital. "Hmm! It''s indeed Leo." I saw Lei Ao walking casually through the gate of the hospital. After walking about 50 meters, he suddenly turned around and walked back into the hospital as if he had just realized it. Seeing this anti-tracking action, Fang Lang smiled. This guy looks like a newbie! This kind of anti-tracking action is not very clever. Fang Lang looked behind Leo, and found that the soldiers under him who were tracking Leo were still smoking against the wall of the house more than 50 meters away from the hospital! He should have seen Leo arrive at this place, and knew that the destination must be a hospital, so he stopped following him. So Leo''s anti-stalking action can be regarded as a show for the blind. Soon Leo appeared in Paul''s ward. No one knew what the two chatted in it, but it only lasted more than ten minutes. Leo left the hospital. After walking out of the hospital, Leo observed the surrounding environment and returned directly by the same route. Suddenly Fang Lang discovered that after Leo walked out of the hospital, a figure wearing a black woolen coat, a top hat, and a scarf around his neck, with only two eyes leaking out, followed behind Leo. After looking at this person carefully, Fang Lang confirmed that this person is the French officer who just drove over in a jeep. Because although he changed his coat, hat and scarf, he didn''t change his pants and shoes, Fang Lang spotted the flaw at a glance. Arent these people in the same group? Why would you want to keep track of your own companions? Wait, its not to help Leo clear his tail! Fang Lang was taken aback, but saw that Lei Ao had already passed by his own people who were leaning against the wall and smoking. With the distance between his side and that side, it was too late to notify the person in charge of following Leo. This made Fang Lang''s heart tighten, and he secretly prayed that his own people must not follow directly! If you walk in front of this tail, you will be finished. "Hurry up, arrange someone to follow up with the guy who just came out of the hospital and followed Leo, he is the officer we are looking for. If he follows our people and wants to attack our people, he must save our people. " Qi Qingshan was startled when he heard Fang Lang''s words, and quickly looked through the binoculars at the person Fang Lang said. After taking a look, he immediately said: "Yes, boss, I will arrange it now." hurried out of the room. Fang Lang didn''t put down the binoculars, but still paid attention to the soldier who was in charge of tracking Leo. His palms started to sweat, if the French officer behind him found out, maybe he would kill him! Fang Lang was reluctant to let his soldiers die here. If he discovers his identity from the soldier, he can only kill him. Because the opponent is the French occupying army, his identity allows him to have many ways to make himself return without success. I dont know if the warrior who followed Leo had been following Leo for too long and knew his destination, so he seemed very calm. Still found a new tail behind the target, so he stood still and didn''t move. It wasn''t until the French officer following Leo surpassed him by nearly 30 meters that he followed them leisurely. This made Fang Lang very relieved. After a while, two of his own men followed behind the following soldiers. Fang Lang looked at Paul''s room with the telescope again, worried that the other party was upstairs observing the situation behind Leo. Fortunately, Paul is already lying on the bed. Looking at the soldier who had been monitoring the room, he asked: "Just now, did this guy go to the window and look out?" "Sir, no. After that Leo left, he went back to bed and lay down." The soldier''s answer made Fang Lang feel relieved. took out a cigar and lit it, and began to think about the purpose of this French officer. Thinking about it now, the other party should not be clearing the tail for Leo, but rather a follow-up to confirm the situation after discovering something abnormal. Because, if it is the person who clears the tail for Leo, he should not follow so closely, but should hide aside and observe quietly to see who is following the tail behind Leo, and then follow up. Instead of following directly like now. For a while, Fang Lang was a little confused about what was going on. Could it be that this French officer has no problem, but just came to the hospital to visit the wounded as a perpetrator, so why did he follow Leo? Or, he just discovered something abnormal about Paul in the hospital, and he didn''t come out right away just to see if there were any other discoveries? As a result, Leo''s appearance caught his attention, so he followed up with Leo in disguise to confirm Leo''s identity? This is really getting more and more chaotic. After a while, Fang Lang really doesn''t understand what''s going on. Soon Qi Qingshan came back. "Boss, this French officer doesn''t seem to be with them! Did we make a mistake?" Although Fang Lang has not yet figured out the relationship between these people and the logic of this matter, he believes that his instincts are not wrong. There is definitely something wrong with this French officer. There is definitely something wrong with this car accident. If this car accident was not an accident, then this French officer is either Paul''s enemy or his accomplice. If it is the enemy, the people who are watching Paul nearby should not be the only ones like themselves. Moreover, following Leo shouldn''t be done by this person himself. "Did you find anyone else nearby watching our target?" Fang Lang''s words stunned Qi Qingshan and the others. (end of this chapter) Chapter 211: french officer Chapter 211 French Officer Seeing the expressions of Qi Qingshan and the two surveillance soldiers, Fang Lang understood the answer. Everyone must not have, pay attention to this kind of thing. "Today''s incident reminded us that when we are spying on others, we must observe the situation around us, and don''t ignore our heads. We keep our eyes on the target, what if the other party has insurance? As long as his insurance pays attention to the situation behind the target, aren''t we exposed? Also, in today''s situation, if the soldier we are following is discovered by the French officer who just followed us, wouldn''t we be exposed? Maybe we won''t even know why we died. " "Yes, boss." Qi Qingshan bowed his head and admitted his mistake, obviously he still had lingering fears about the thrill just now. "It is still too early for us to draw conclusions about the relationship between this Frenchman and them. Now we have to find a way to confirm the identity of this Frenchman first, and then see if we can analyze his purpose. Let the brothers who are responsible for tracking this Frenchman be careful. This is now the territory of the French. It is a certain risk for us to follow an officer of the French occupation army. At the same time, the jeep at the entrance of the hospital, try to find a way to see if it belongs to that company. " This new clue made Qi Qingshan''s eyes light up. "Okay, boss, I''ll arrange someone to investigate right away." Today, I went to the monitoring point to check the results. It was not bad. Putting down the binoculars, Fang Lang encouraged two soldiers who were monitoring Paul before leaving the monitoring point. On the way back to the hotel, Fang Lang carefully recalled what happened in the hospital today, and replayed every detail in Fang Lang''s mind. In the end, he still felt that the French officer should be with Paul. As for why he followed Leo, it is still unknown. But now it is really necessary to find out what is going on behind you. If someone quietly counter-surveilled, things will be troublesome. If there are indeed other people around Paul watching, it means that the Frenchman may really be an enemy with Paul. Although this possibility is very small, Fang Lang still decided to confirm the answer. After returning to the hotel, he asked Zhuang Xintian, who was on shift in the hotel, to arrange for someone to conduct a detailed inspection of the soldiers who were performing tracking and monitoring tasks outside, and the surrounding area, to ensure that everyone was kept clean. And equip each surveillance team with an insurance to ensure the safety of everyone behind them. Soon Fang Lang felt the trouble of insufficient manpower. Fortunately, the staff recruitment is now being coordinated by the assistant team of Fangyuan Group, and I am not going to continue to open up new industries for the time being. Shortly after returning to the hotel, Serrano found Fang Lang and said: "Mr. Fang, I think there are enough people in the machine tool experiment and research room. Now we need some sophisticated machine tool equipment to turn the drawings we designed into machines. However, after my communication with everyone, I learned that the equipment that meets our requirements in Germany has been dismantled and taken away, so I suggest that we go to Switzerland. " Fang Lang had already thought of what Serrano said. After he was going to deal with Paul''s affairs, he went directly to Switzerland to purchase some high-precision machine tools and shipped them to Brazil as industrial master machines. "You''re right, I''ve also considered this issue, but I can''t go to Switzerland right now, you can see if you can arrange a few experienced engineers among the recruits, accompanied by company assistants, go to Switzerland first Go shopping for equipment. What kind of equipment is required, you will make a list, we will purchase directly, and after the purchase is completed, it will be shipped directly back to Brazil through Italy. As far as I know, the quality of machine tool equipment in Italy is also very good. If Switzerland is not enough, we can also go to Italy to have a look. " Feeling Fang Lang''s trust in him, Serrano was very happy, and nodded repeatedly: "No problem, I will tell everyone now. When can the rest of us go to Brazil?" "Have you already recruited so quickly? Don''t just recruit laboratory personnel! We also need to recruit skilled workers with superb manufacturing skills." "Don''t worry! Boss, we have recruited more than 300 excellent skilled workers, which is enough for our early production. Some auxiliary positions can be directly recruited in Brazil." Seeing that although Serrano was very thin and unhealthy, his spirit had improved significantly due to the work of the past two days, which made Fang Lang feel relieved. As long as this guy doesn''t have to be by his side every day, Fang Lang is relieved. "Well, let everyone pack up their valuables, and give my adjutant a list of specific personnel, and he will be responsible for arranging the itinerary for you. Do you need to visit Belgium before returning to Brazil? " Hearing Fang Lang''s question, Serrano did not show any abnormality, but said very calmly: "Forget it, there is no one at home, so what''s the point of going back? Now I am discussing knowledge about machine tool manufacturing with everyone, which makes me very happy and fulfilled. Do not worry! Boss, I''m fine. " Fang Lang looked Serrano carefully, hoping that this guy was really okay. After getting to know other mechanical engineers these days, he was even more sure that this guy was indeed a genius. He designed a machine tool for automatic gear grinding, which surprised these machine tool designers. Because this machine tool is already considered a real automatic machine tool. As a modern person, Fang Lang knows very well that the future of machine tools is automatic machine tools, and Serrano is actually a genius player in this area. He is not willing to let him lose his due value due to mental illness. "That''s good, if you need my help, just come to me directly, don''t be bored in your heart, understand?" Serrano understood what Fang Lang meant. After all, he was there when the doctor told him that he might have mental illness. He was very grateful for Fang Lang''s concern, nodded with a smile, and left Fang Lang''s room voluntarily. Originally, Fang Lang''s plan was to go to Bofors, Sweden, but because of the big move in Germany, he had to stop temporarily to digest it. Now he just wants to solve the treasure on Paul''s side as soon as possible, and then go to the United States to deal with the aircraft carrier. American Shata Company has received a telegram from Fang Lang, and General Manager Jefferson has called back to start official operations. I believe there will be good news soon. The other shareholders of Shata Company are also very concerned about this business. At the same time, Fang Lang said that he would purchase various types of transport aircraft from Shata Company for a long time for modification, and he also supported the business of selling them to airlines as civil aviation passenger aircraft. Even Jefferson said that shareholders can provide Fang Lang with several sets of aircraft overhaul lines, as well as various supporting parts. The enthusiasm of the shareholders of Shata Company made Fang Lang think that someone had taken a fancy to his aircraft refitting factory, but after asking, he realized that others didn''t like such a small business as refitting at all. Compared with the aircraft modification business that can only earn a certain amount of labor costs, the arms business that can get high profits and price differences by selling the decommissioned equipment of the country is what they want. In order to allow Fang Lang to buy more military aircraft from them, these guys have already begun to actively sell these modified aircraft to American civil aviation companies for Fang Lang. Of course, there are businessmen in the United States who are interested in this modification business, but compared with Brazil''s low labor, American businessmen are not very competitive. Moreover, as Fang Lang is the major shareholder of Shata Company, the cost of purchasing aircraft from Shata Company is of course lower than other small customers. These advantages add up, so that Fang Lang, an aircraft modification factory that doesn''t even have a factory building, already has an order. This is why Fang Lang asked Polman and the others to send them back to Brazil as soon as possible. As for the location of the factory, Fang Lang didn''t decide on his own, because aircraft manufacturing is the jewel in the crown of industry after all, so if he doesn''t understand it well, don''t get involved too much. He has considered putting the refitting factory in Natal. After all, the Natal Naval Base already has two aircraft overhaul lines. And this place is very close to the United States and Europe. However, aircraft manufacturing must not be placed here, after all, the supporting industries are too poor. Basic industries are almost zero and this idea will be directly repelled. The aircraft production line of the later generations of Embraer is also in Sao Paulo. Fang Lang estimates that after Polman and the others inspect, the possibility of finally placing the factory in Sao Paulo is also the greatest. In this case, the influence of Fangyuan Group in Sao Paulo will be unparalleled in the future. Many domestic immigrants have already landed in Sanchez Port in Sao Paulo. Directly entered the Fangyuan Group''s company in Sao Paulo. It is the real estate company that digests the most personnel. After all, the basic construction work in the construction industry requires a low level of education for workers. Because Fang Lang is now going to build a lot of factories and houses in Brazil. Although he has recruited workers locally in Brazil, Fang Lang is of course more inclined to his compatriots than Brazilian workers. However, in order to avoid arousing dissatisfaction among the local people in Brazil and the influx of Chinese, Fang Lang had to allocate construction workers in proportion. According to the situation reported to him by the assistant team, the number of compatriots engaged in the construction industry in Sao Paulo alone has reached tens of thousands. Because of the diligent and hard-working character of the compatriots, the construction of factories and houses is progressing rapidly. Working with local Brazilians also allows everyone to integrate into the local area very quickly. According to what Fang Lang learned, there are already compatriots who can use gestures and language to communicate with local Brazilians in a simple way. In order to allow everyone to integrate as soon as possible and improve their own cultural level, Fang Lang opened night schools in areas where workers are concentrated. Both Chinese and Brazilians can go to the school to study. In addition to offering Portuguese courses, the classroom also offers Chinese courses. Let everyone learn Chinese culture in a foreign country. Of course, most of the Chinese teachers are compatriots who have studied abroad among immigrants. In order to cultivate the Chinese middle class and everyone''s enthusiasm for learning, Fang Lang asked Chinese people with strong learning ability to take up management positions such as foremen in the company, and planned to train everyone in the direction of contractors. As for whether they will become construction companies in the end , It depends on their own personal good fortune. Moreover, many compatriots who have studied mathematics such as abacus are arranged to study financial knowledge in the company''s financial department. Before the advent of computers, the abacus was the fastest calculation tool. The appearance of this tool left the Brazilians stunned. It was the first time they knew that there was such a calculation tool. Many Brazilians began to learn the abacus. (end of this chapter) Chapter 212: identifying Chapter 212 Confirmation of Identity Early the next morning, before Fang Lang received the results of the investigation about the French officer, he received an even more surprising news. People from the French occupation army appeared near the rebels and began to monitor the actions of the rebels. According to the report of the person who followed the French officer, the French officer did not hesitate to return to the occupying army headquarters after following Leo to find the enemy hiding in the rebel army. About an hour later, he re-led a casual team of about ten people and began to monitor near the rebel army. This sudden change almost exposed the soldiers monitoring the rebel army. So, Qi Qingshan came over early in the morning to ask Fang Lang what to do now. "Is that Leo also with the rebels?" "No, Leo has returned to the hut in the forest, our people are following, and no new followers are found around." "That is to say, the Frenchman only informed the occupying army about the rebel army, but he didn''t report Leo''s existence, right?" Fang Lang felt that things were really getting more and more interesting, and felt that he had caught something vaguely, but he was not sure yet. "Looking at the situation, it should be, but why did he do this?" Qi Qingshan feels that things are becoming more and more complicated now, and the intelligence information they have is not enough, which makes him a little confused about the situation. Hearing Qi Qingshan''s question, Fang Lang smiled: "Because Leo will involve Paul. If my predictions are correct, Leo and the rebels have already agreed on a time to discover the treasure, and this time will be soon, maybe tonight." Seeing Fang Lang''s expression, Qi Qingshan understood that Fang Lang should have found the logic of this matter and the relationship with these people in his heart. As a subordinate, although he was curious, he didn''t ask. He just waited for Fang Lang to give the order, and he could just follow it. "Then what should we do next?" "Let the people who monitor the rebels and Leo, and the people who monitor the treasure place withdraw." Fang Lang''s words surprised Qi Qingshan and said: "Ah! We don''t want that treasure?" Fang Lang nodded and said: "Now this treasure has been dedicated by Paul to the occupying forces through this French officer. This is the territory of the French occupation army. How can we compete with others. Its a good move to drive away the wolf. It seems that this guy named Paul knows that we are watching him. Its not easy, its really not easy! I admire him more and more now. His plan to get rid of the golden cicada''s shell should also begin. What I am most curious about is what made him make such a big determination to abandon this treasure directly, and would rather dedicate it to the French occupation army than take it for himself. " "You mean that Paul wants to run away? Since we already know the location of the treasure, why don''t we take out the treasure right now before they do anything." Qi Qingshan would not raise any doubts about Fang Lang''s judgment, but he was really reluctant to watch a treasure pass him by. Watching helplessly as he slipped away in front of her. "Hehe. It''s useless. We can''t take it away after we take it out. Since others have dedicated it to the occupying army, once we really move this batch of treasures. It is not only this treasure that is offered, we will be offered too. Then our recruitment plan in Germany will be affected, and we cannot use our industrial development plan for an unknown treasure. " Fang Lang had to make a trade-off between treasures and industrial development, and he didn''t want his previous efforts to go to waste. In his mind, the industrial development plan must be more important than this treasure. The most important thing is that he feels that this matter is not that simple. Since this Paul sold all his own people and treasures to the French occupation army, I can only illustrate one point. That is, this guy doesn''t really want to share this wealth with the rebels. And he was able to share this wealth with the French without hesitation, or he was a French spy who broke into the German Gestapo and deliberately eliminated these German rebels. However, judging from what he did, it is obviously not the reason. If it was because of this reason, he would have disclosed the intelligence of the rebels to the French occupation army long ago. Instead of waiting until the French officer appeared, he sent the treasure and the rebels out by the hand of the French officer. Since he is not a French spy, then this French officer may be a German spy. The two German spies dedicated the wealth of the Germans and their comrades to the French. This kind of operation is really confusing. While Fang Lang was still thinking about why these two guys came to such a show operation, Zhuang Xintian knocked on the door. "Report!" "Come in." "Boss, the soldiers following the French officer took a picture of the French officer at the French occupation headquarters." As he spoke, he handed over a photo in his hand. Fang Lang took the photo casually, glanced at it, and stood up abruptly. "It''s him!" Then, he began to pace back and forth in the room. After walking for two minutes, he said to the two: "Think of a way to get a clearer map, there must be Germany, France and Switzerland, three countries. Quick!" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, both of them were taken aback for a moment, and then they all responded: "Yes!" Both turned and left. Fang Lang sat back on the sofa, lit a cigar, took a deep puff, looked at the photo in his hand and laughed. "I see, I got you, Paul." The maps of this era are obviously military-controlled items, so it is not so easy to find, but fortunately, now that the war is over, after nearly two hours of searching, Qi Qingshan and Zhuang Xintian finally found three pre-war maps of Germany, France and Switzerland. map. Although several maps are of different sizes and scales, even simple tourist maps, they are enough. Fang Lang spread the map on the bed and studied it for more than two hours before getting up and saying: "Since this is the case, then I will retreat to advance. Come on, tell everyone, pack up and we''re leaving Germany. Qingshan, go and explain to the assistant team, and leave a few people here to continue to follow up the recruited personnel to return to Brazil, and leave the job of arranging the plane to them. Inform Serrano that we will set off to Switzerland to purchase machine tools this afternoon, and ask them to arrange professionals to go with us. Nitta, except for the person monitoring the French officer, all monitoring personnel have withdrawn. Get ready, I''m going to bid Colonel Chatham my farewell. " A series of orders were issued. Although a few people were a little confused, they didn''t express any doubts, and they all followed the orders. That afternoon, the headquarters of the French occupation forces in Stuttgart. "Fang, why are you leaving so suddenly?" Colonel Chatham looked at Fang Langdao who came to say goodbye with a surprised expression on his face. Fang Lang carefully observed Colonel Chatham''s expression, trying to analyze whether there was any information about his group in the news received by the French colonel. Looking around, Fang Lang felt that the other party''s surprised expression was not faked, and initially suspected that the French officer had not reported all the information. "Haha, Mr. Colonel, it is thanks to your strong support that I was able to complete my work so quickly. You also know that the main purpose of my coming here this time is to purchase high-quality and cheap machine tool products. Unfortunately, after the past few days of investigation. I found that all the good things have been taken away. So, I can only go to neighboring countries to find a way. But if Mr. Colonel can provide me with a batch of suitable machine tools, I can continue to wait here for a while. " To be honest, Fang Lang really wanted Colonel Chatham to take the risk of providing himself with a batch of machine tools they dismantled from Germany, so this sentence was not only to test the other party''s attitude towards him. At the same time, I sincerely hope that Mr. Colonel can provide himself with what he wants. Unfortunately, the French colonel did not expect to be less daring than the American colonel. Of course, it is also possible that he is indeed patriotic and knows that these devices are what their country needs now. This is not to say that the American colonel is not patriotic, it can only be said that the Americans are arrogant and look down on the Japanese devils. "Fang, to be honest, I really want to help you too. However, these things are accounted for, and I can''t handle them privately. But don''t worry, I will spare no effort to support your recruitment. " If you have money, you must support it! If you dont support me, go find someone who is one level older than you, or go to the British or American territory to try your luck. "Okay then! I''ll go to Switzerland to think of a way. If I have the opportunity to meet in the future, I will definitely treat you to a big meal. Today''s time is too short, so I won''t stay any longer." "That''s good! When my wine estate really opens, I will definitely send you a few bottles of good wine for you to try." Fang Lang left Colonel Chatham''s office after a few words of courtesy between the two parties. Fang Lang came to say goodbye to Colonel Chatham today, of course he didn''t just come to say goodbye. Since the French occupying forces have sent personnel to monitor the actions of the rebels, instead of directly destroying them, it means that their intelligence has learned that they are about to dig treasures. As the supreme commander of the French occupation forces in Stuttgart, Colonel Chatham must be the supreme commander of this matter, and at least a participant. By contacting Colonel Chatham, Fang Lang was able to test out how much specific information the French occupying forces had obtained, or whether there was any information about him monitoring the other party. Now it seems that the result is not bad. The German spy in the French army obviously did not disclose information about himself to the French occupying army. I dont know if the other party was worried that he might expose Paul, so he deliberately concealed the intelligence that these people were monitoring them from the French occupying forces. It was still Colonel Chatham''s adjutant who sent Fang Lang out this time. After walking out a few steps, Fang Lang seemed to suddenly think of something and said: "Almost forgot, I still purchased a batch of supplies in Germany. However, it seems that it is not safe to arrange vehicles to transport in Germany now. I don''t know if Colonel Chatham will arrange to transport my supplies and your army''s supplies. Can the vehicle be sent to France together?" After listening to Fang Lang''s words, the adjutant smiled and said: "Haha. There is no need to be so troublesome. In order to ensure the smooth transportation of materials, our French army has used heavy troops to open an absolutely safe transportation channel for the military and civilians. Both military and civilian convoys go to France through this route. If You need me to draw the path for you." (end of this chapter) Chapter 213: route Chapter 213 Route Fang Lang looked at Mr. Adjutant with a casual face, not sure if the news was true or not. After all, there would be no absolutely safe channel! This kid won''t be cheating me! After thinking for a while, he said: "Then if I want to transport supplies to Switzerland, which route should I take to be safer?" Mr. Adjutant did not understand why Fang Lang wanted to look far away. "If you are worried about safety, you can ship the materials into France and return directly to China by sea! Why go to Switzerland?" Fang Lang smiled and said: "I will also purchase machine tools from Switzerland, and then we will gather the materials we purchased in Italy and ship them back to China from Italy." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Mr. Adjutant didn''t think much about it. After all, others came here this time to purchase machine tools. As if thinking about memories, he said after a while: "If you want to take a safe road to Switzerland, I suggest you go west from Stuttgart, follow the safe passage we opened up to Strasbourg, and then take the waterway along the Rhine to Basel, Switzerland. Enter Switzerland. This is the best route I can think of to transport supplies to Switzerland safely. " "Ah! Isn''t that a long detour? If you want to take the waterway, why go to Strasbourg to change the waterway? Isn''t Karlsruhe closer and more convenient?" Fang Lang is a good student who asks questions when he doesn''t understand. After all, judging from what he saw on the map, it should indeed be faster to go south by boat in Karlsruhe. "Haha Colonel Fang, believe me, you can''t hire ships in Karlsruhe. Now the ships on the Rhine have been controlled by our France. The nearest place where you can hire cargo ships is to enter Our French border city of Strasbourg." Hearing what the adjutant said, Fang Lang finally understood why. Fortunately, he asked the adjutant today, otherwise he could indeed find a suitable route just by looking at the map. However, whether there is a suitable means of transportation on this road, this is really not something that an outsider like Fang Lang can figure out the situation. If the time comes to arrange the plan according to the route I found on the map, there will definitely be mistakes and omissions. After thinking for a while, Fang Lang took out a souvenir from his pocket, and stuffed it into the adjutant''s pocket calmly. The adjutant also continued to walk forward without realizing it, but the slightly upturned corner of his mouth and the finger that accidentally touched his pocket revealed his comprehension. "Then if you walk along the Rhine River, are you sure it''s safe? After all, this Rhine River is the border between Germany and France. I''m not worried about the French side, but the German side?" "Haha. Colonel Fang, please rest assured, it is precisely because this is the border between the two countries that I said the waterway is safe. Don''t forget that the area to the south is the security area of ??our French occupation army. Now the Rhine River as the border line is equivalent to our inland river in France. There are our patrol boats patrolling the river. You can rest assured that there is absolutely no need to worry about safety issues. I''m not afraid to tell you that many of our own equipment go south by this waterway. " Mr. Adjutant is obviously very confident in the transportation route he provided. After all, France is now a victorious country, and he is very clear about all the conditions of the occupying forces in southern Germany. Even inadvertently revealed that their own equipment is also taking this route. For Fang Lang, this information was a surprise. "What if my goods need to be transported to Schaffhausen? The distance to go directly south by land is much shorter, so it''s safe?" "If you go directly south by land, I suggest you give up, because there are still some resistance forces in the mountains of southern Germany that have not been eliminated. If you take this road, your safety may not be guaranteed." "Thank you, I think I know how to go!" Chatting all the way, several people have reached the parking lot of the occupation army headquarters. Fang Lang shook hands with Mr. Adjutant and turned to leave. After watching Fang Lang and others leave, Mr. Adjutant put his hand into his pocket, touched the thickness of the things in his pocket, and smiled with satisfaction. "Boss, don''t we go by plane?" Qi Qingshan looked at Fang Lang in confusion and asked. "Haha. Why do you think so?" "Didn''t you just ask Colonel Chatham''s adjutant the safe route?" "I just confirmed that the route is safe, but I didn''t say that I will take this route." After returning to the hotel, Fang Lang found Zhuang Xintian and pointed to the map to circle a few places. After a while of arrangements, both Qi Qingshan and Zhuang Xintian were confused. But he didn''t ask much, but started to execute according to Fang Lang''s order. Fang Lang left Stuttgart directly on a special plane that afternoon and flew directly to Zurich Airport in Switzerland. Fang Lang didn''t hide the news of his departure, so soon a call was made to the hospital where Paul was, and he informed Paul, whose real name was Leon, of the news. What Fang Lang didn''t know was that the power of the Gestapo had not been completely eliminated, although the Gestapo was declared an illegal organization by the Allies and banned it. Sealed all Gestapo files, but Paul had hidden an intelligence force of about five people long before the Allies entered Germany. This intelligence force was originally under his direct leadership during the war. It is only necessary to destroy their files in the Gestapo in advance, and their identities will never be known by others. Except for Paul and Leo who were targeted by Fang Lang and the others, these five people have been hiding in the dark since Fang Lang and the others discovered the identities and traces of the two of Paul. Paul has already realized that he is being watched by others, and it is very clear who is watching him. As for why Fang Lang wanted to spy on him, Paul didn''t know. It should have been for safety or curiosity at first. But it is obviously impossible for Paul to give up his actions just because he is being watched. All the actions of himself and Leo have been under surveillance, and he is very clear in his heart. Why did he open the treasure when he knew that someone was watching him, because this was originally part of his plan. He will do this regardless of whether he is being watched or not, and this is the military expenses he left for the rebels. To Paul''s surprise, even though he knew the location of his treasure, the other party was unmoved, and he didn''t even confirm the amount of the treasure. This made him wonder if he had an illusion. The lack of sufficient understanding between the two parties caused a lot of misjudgments on both sides, and Paul wasted a lot of time. What annoyed Paul was the attack launched by the rebels who disobeyed the command, which made him finally see his situation clearly. He knew in his heart that the Third Reich was completely hopeless. That''s why he took advantage of the action to confuse the surveillance personnel and went to Switzerland to formulate a new plan. A plan that is entirely for one''s own private interests. So, when Paul returned to Germany from Switzerland, everything started to look completely different. Fang Lang and others were a little confused for a while. But in the middle of his action, the tail that had been following behind him took the initiative to withdraw, which made him a little unbelievable for a while. A simple trick to drive away tigers and swallow wolves, scare away the tail that has been hanging behind you and staring at you? Would this be too childish. But now that the other party has left Switzerland, the monitoring point around him has also been removed, which is also good news for him. In this way, you can completely let go of your hands and feet, and you don''t have to worry about anything anymore. That night, Paul slipped out of the hospital quietly, walked in circles in downtown Stuttgart for more than an hour, carried out a series of anti-tracking actions, and confirmed through the two insurances he deliberately set up that he was behind him. No tail anymore. This made Paul very happy and had a rare good night''s sleep. Early the next morning, Paul put on a French military uniform and appeared in the French barracks. In the evening, there was a whole car transport company, and more than 50 trucks were ordered to set off. As for the destination of the departure, only the new commissioner and the transportation company commander know. Quickly went around, and the convoy drove into a very remote and hidden air-raid shelter, because it was already dark, and everyone didn''t know the exact location of the air-raid shelter, so they could only follow the vehicle in front. After arriving at the air-raid shelter, everyone began to enter the air-raid shelter in an orderly manner with an order, and loaded tightly packed wooden ammunition boxes and crates of various specifications onto the car. The seal with the ** logo on the boxes was clearly visible under the torchlight. All the soldiers involved in the transportation were heart beating wildly, and they had a well-known guess about the goods transported this time. No wonder before departure, both the special commissioner and the company commander repeatedly emphasized secrecy, and asked everyone to completely forget about this operation after the mission was over. After a whole night of transportation, taking advantage of the darkness before dawn, the exhausted and half-dead soldiers didn''t even have time to rest, so the convoy left Stuttgart non-stop all the way west. Because this is a transport company of the French army, the road was unimpeded without any checks. The convoy arrived at a remote small pier in Strasbourg at the evening of the second day, and loaded all the supplies on a thousand-ton cargo ship. The soldiers of the transportation company reluctantly watched this small cargo ship disappearing on the Rhine River in the dark night. What they didn''t know was that at the same time as their transport company was heading to the air-raid shelter, a German resistance army drove into an abandoned mine in a forest in the opposite direction. "Leo, are you sure Chief Leon won''t act with us?" "Major Robin, didn''t I tell you guys? Sir, there was a car accident just after returning from the road trip in Switzerland, and he is still lying in the hospital! How do you ask the officer to come here?" Leo looked at the rebel major who was missing a finger in front of him, and said helplessly. He didn''t expect his officer to be so unlucky, because of a car accident, he could only give up personally presiding over the treasure excavation. Perhaps the officer should feel even more helpless at this time! Major Robin kept looking at the surrounding environment along the way, but unfortunately he couldn''t see anything in the dark night. He only knew that the vehicle drove south for more than an hour before reaching the destination. What Leo didn''t know was that Colonel Robin in front of him didn''t really want Chief Leon to preside over this treasure excavation operation. He was worried that if he wanted to swallow this wealth, there would be a huge hidden danger if he couldn''t silence Paul. (end of this chapter) Chapter 214: bait Chapter 214 Bait Major Robin saw that the soldiers had opened the abandoned mine pit and began to carry wooden boxes out one by one. Looking at the ** seal on the seal of the wooden box, his uneasy mood became eager. He rushed into the mine to observe for a while, and after he and a soldier lifted a sealed ammunition box onto the truck, he found Leo again and said: "There are not many things here! There is no need to prepare five trucks, three trucks are enough." Robin''s military rank is higher than Leo''s, so now Leo can only follow Robin''s command, and he can only answer his questions. "What Chief Leon means is that we need to transport these materials to Switzerland for cash. After going all the way south into the mountains, the road conditions are poor, so don''t overload the vehicle." "Switzerland? You mean we are going to **** this shipment to Switzerland now?" "That''s right! This is not cash, we can''t use it in Germany at all! It can only be used as military expenses after it is shipped to Switzerland!" Hearing Leo''s words, Robin also felt that it made sense. Fortunately, he didn''t do it directly. After shaking his head slightly at a few confidantes who were looking at him, Robin asked: "Where will it be shipped to? Does Chief Leon have any arrangements?" "Sir, please rest assured that the reason why Chief Leon was injured in a car accident is because he went to Switzerland in person two days ago and bought a small farm in Schaffhausen, Switzerland. We just need to ensure that the goods can be transported safely. Just arrive. For the rest, after the officer regains his ability to move, he will use the channels he has opened to cash out the goods. " After listening to Leo''s words, Robin didn''t say much, just rolled his eyes, nodded and continued to join the ranks of carrying. Because there were not many goods, the entire excavation time was over in only one hour. The French occupying forces who have been monitoring their actions, in order not to let them find out that they were being followed, had to chase after them on bicycles all the way. When they arrived at the treasure excavation site, they found that these German rebels had re-boarded their cars and were about to leave. This made them anxious, leaving the two of them waiting in place, while the others continued to ride their bicycles and run wildly all the way in the dark. Fortunately, the support was not slow. After more than 20 minutes, Colonel Chatham was sitting in the jeep, hurried and finally met a few men who were waiting at the intersection, and learned that the other party had brought a lot of harvest Headed south. In this way, Colonel Chatham''s convoy chased after him all the way. At first, he didn''t want to inform the garrisons in other places. After all, this mission was no different than other missions. The opponent''s convoy had several carts of treasures. If the troops stationed in other places are involved, there will be no chance for these treasures to be tampered with. However, because the chase was at night, the opponents were all in trucks. If there was no interception in front, it would be impossible to catch up by yourself. After chasing for two hours, Colonel Chatham had to choose to report the situation and at the same time inform the southern garrison. Major Robin led the convoy all the way south without daring to stop. Everyone knew what was being transported in their convoy, so everyone was very nervous. Fortunately, there were no abnormalities along the way. When they arrived near Dittingen, Major Robin, who was sitting in the lead car, looked at the pale sky and was thinking about how to take these cars of wealth for himself. He didn''t bring many people this time, but everyone is his confidant, so it is not difficult to take these treasures as his own. Originally, he planned to kill Leon and Leon at the treasure excavation site. Leo''s. It''s a pity that things deviated from his plan. Leon actually got into a car accident at a critical moment and didn''t show up at the treasure excavation site. Role. What''s more important is what Leo said to him at the scene. He thinks it makes sense. If he directly takes out these treasures in Germany, it may attract the attention of interested people. The consequences caused by this are what he is unwilling to bear. Thinking about the twenty or so people under him, it would not be too late to make a move even if he arrived in Switzerland, because in his opinion, no matter what the situation, his number advantage is absolutely dominant, which guarantees him absolute initiative right. Or it would be a good choice to be a small landlord in Switzerland with this wealth! Thinking about it, the corners of his mouth involuntarily began to smile. But at this moment, he was surprised to find that there was a French army checkpoint on the road ahead. The soldier driving beside him also noticed the situation ahead, braked quickly, stopped the car, looked at Major Robin and said: "Sir? What about the French checkpoint?" Major Robin, who was sitting in the co-pilot''s seat, was almost thrown from the table and chair by the sudden slam of the brakes. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and put his foot against the front dashboard to prevent it from sliding down. The driver''s overreaction obviously attracted the attention of the checkpoint ahead, which made Robin very angry. "Are you **** stupid! Let''s just drive the car to the front and launch a surprise attack to rush over. If you stop the car suddenly, even a fool can see that we have a problem." "Ah! So what shall we do now?" The driver also realized that he seemed to have done something wrong, so he said nervously. "Others have already discovered our abnormality, what else can we do? It''s too late to turn around, of course we just rush over!" After speaking, he turned around and patted the backboard behind him, shouting: "There is an enemy checkpoint, notify the vehicles behind, and prepare to rush over." Soon there was a reply and the sound of pulling the bolt from the cargo box. Robin glared at the driver and said: "What are you doing in a daze? Let''s rush over! Don''t stop, understand?" The driver shrank his neck, gritted his teeth and said: "Yes, sir! Sit down!" After kicking the floor oil, he rushed to the checkpoint ahead. Robin stared dumbfounded at the idiot beside him, are you afraid that the enemy will not know that you are going to break through? But he had no time to curse the driver beside him, because he saw the French soldiers at the checkpoint see the stopped truck and started rushing towards them again. No need for the officer''s orders, everyone knew that there was a problem with the convoy, and they raised their weapons and aimed at their trucks. Robin loaded the MP40 submachine gun in his hand, ready to fire at any time. However, he will not fire immediately, because the distance between the two sides is not close enough now, and the distance must be further shortened, otherwise the heavy machine gun next to the checkpoint will definitely teach him to be a man. Now they are all German civilians in plain clothes. The French dare not open fire on them for no reason. They still have the opportunity to approach the checkpoint. Unfortunately, what he didn''t know was that the checkpoint had been notified by his superiors that a group of armed German rebels were driving five trucks towards their checkpoint. Looking at the number of trucks and the abnormal behavior of the trucks just now, the French platoon leader at the checkpoint has confirmed that this is the target that the superior said. The French platoon leader said to the soldiers behind the heavy machine gun: "Warning shot!" "Yes!" Then, a shuttle of heavy machine gun bullets hit the truck about ten meters in front of it. At this time, the truck was only about a hundred meters away from the checkpoint. The driver next to Major Robin gritted his back molars, fixed his eyes on the road ahead, and held the steering wheel tightly with both hands, ignoring the warning shots that were close at hand, and continued to rush forward. The French platoon leader saw that the car had no intention of stopping, so he stopped hesitating and shouted: "Fire!" In an instant, the weapons in the hands of both sides shot out hot tongues of flames. Major Robin yelled, stretched out the MP40 out of the window, and started to fire at the checkpoint. An MG42 on the roof of the truck boot also opened fire at the same time. It was too late and then in just 30 seconds, the cab of the leading car was shot by hundreds of bullets. Major Robin didn''t even have a chance to open the box to see the treasure he was transporting, and was shot by a heavy machine gun. Hornet''s nest. The driver in the driver''s seat was also shot several times, but the vehicle still rushed straight through the checkpoint according to the inertia, and crashed into the machine gun position at the checkpoint. As for whether the driver was intentional or unintentional, it is impossible to judge, after all, he died on the spot. But his behavior opened up a way out for the comrades behind. With the misfire of the heavy machine gun firepower, the other four trucks rushed past the checkpoint. The French soldiers at the checkpoint had a fierce exchange of fire with the truck passing by at high speed, and both sides suffered casualties. Although the rebel convoy successfully broke through the first checkpoint, this also exposed their position, and their commander, Major Robin, was also killed here. The rebel convoy without a leader can only continue to rush forward according to the original plan. But this behavior is no different from sending to death, because the heavy French troops in front have begun to gather, and the pursuers in the rear are getting closer and closer to them. Their trip to Switzerland is doomed to be a needless struggle to throw themselves into the net. Because they were the bait thrown by their own officers to attract firepower from the very beginning, their actions had no chance of success at all. It was precisely because of their actions that the French occupying forces throughout Stuttgart and even the entire state focused their attention on them. body. At this time, Leon used the French''s own transport company to transport the treasure out of Stuttgart, which did not arouse anyone''s suspicion at all. At noon, this rebel team was wiped out near the road checkpoint in the south of Dittingen by the French army attacking from front to back. When Colonel Chatham gathered all the goods on the five trucks, he inspected them one by one, and found that there were only five ammunition boxes of gold bricks and eight crates of art. Other cargoes are munitions and weapons, which makes all combatants very disappointed. Because, the information they received showed that the German rebels took out the treasure hidden in Stuttgart, but judging from the actual situation now, although it cannot be said that these have nothing to do with the treasure. However, it is not up to the level of a great treasure. Colonel Chatham''s emotions seemed very complicated. Fortunately, he notified the southern garrison to act together, otherwise, only his subordinates would act. The superior knew that he had discovered the ** treasure, but in the end he only handed over this point. If the rest were weapons and ammunition, the superior would probably suspect how much he had embezzled. Its all right now, other people have testified for him, the actual amount of treasures is indeed only this point, the officer cant just suspect him if there is a problem. (end of this chapter) Chapter 215: oriole Chapter 215 Oriole The Rhine River is the largest river in Western Europe. It originates in the northern foothills of the Alps in Switzerland, flows northwest through Liechtenstein, Austria, France, Germany and the Netherlands, and finally flows into the North Sea near Rotterdam. Since the Vienna Conference in 1815, it has become an international shipping waterway with a navigable length of about 869 kilometers. This river is an important transportation route for the import and export of Swiss industrial products. With the end of the war, the Rhine has slowly returned to its former prosperity. A thousand-ton cargo ship from Strasbourg sailed south in the early morning mist. This kind of ship is very common on the Rhine River, and it didn''t attract anyone''s attention at all. In addition to the captain of this cargo ship, there is also an **** in French military uniform, and a middle-aged man in casual clothes, busy with you in the cabin. If you walk in, you can see that the man in the cabin is removing the seals from the wooden boxes and replacing them with new ones. The seals that were removed had clear markings on them. Obviously, these were the real treasures transported by Gestapo officers from Stuttgart. "Sir, so many people from the French transport company participated in this operation, will they be discovered?" The captain who steered the boat seriously looked at Leon who was wearing a French military uniform and was looking around with binoculars. "Don''t worry! Our people will take care of it!" Leon answered the subordinate''s question without looking back. As an old spy, this kind of killing and silence is really not too simple. However, he must let these French soldiers die after returning to the barracks, preferably after performing the next mission. It''s not that they dare not do it, but I hope that people will not easily link the deaths of these soldiers with this transportation mission. Only in this way can this secret be discovered later. As for the person who finally took the shot to silence him, it was the French officer Fang Lang had been looking for, the captain of the transport company and the commander of the company, Captain Gerard. When Fang Lang got the photo of Captain Gerrard, many doubts that he didn''t understand were solved one after another. So Fang Lang directly removed all the original monitoring points, and only needed to keep an eye on Captain Gerald. This Captain Gerald is Leon''s deepest hole card. Why does the main combat force not stay in a good position, and wants to take the initiative to transfer to the transport company to serve as the company commander. Why his guerrilla officers were frequently attacked, and finally let him, a young man, be called the guerrilla captain. If he, a French officer, injured Paul, a German, the French would not have any doubts if they didn''t understand the situation. When Paul found out that the person monitoring him was not the French occupation army at all, he asked Gerard, the former French guerrilla captain, to track down the German resistance army. And overheard the news of the treasure, the French army could not find the abnormality at all. There are some doubts, and Fang Lang can think of countless explanations for him. For example, why do you follow this man named Leo? As a guerrilla leader behind the enemy, it is normal to recognize the former enemy. After tracking, they discovered the figure of the German resistance army that the French occupying forces had been looking for, and overheard that the other party was about to unearth a hidden treasure. Such information has reached the hands of the French army, and it is only natural that the French army only monitors but does not do anything. Since everyone is German and they are Paul''s subordinates, why did Paul betray Major Robin who was a rebel? Thinking about Captain Gerald''s identity as the commander of the transportation company, Fang Lang understood that the treasure that Paul exposed was simply a bait, a bait used to attract attention. Leo is obviously also his abandoned subordinate. When Gerrard followed Leo, Leo must have received a clear time to dig the treasure. This time will not be very long, Paul will not leave too much time for the French occupying forces to investigate. When Leo and the others set off to dig the treasure, the eyes of the whole Stuttgart will be attracted by the treasure, and Paul will take Gerard with the French''s own transport company to transport away the real treasure. This is what Fang Lang thought of after discovering that Captain Gerrard was a German spy. Paul wanted to take these treasures as his own or realize them, so he could only ship them to Switzerland. Only Switzerland, a neutral country, would turn a blind eye to these treasures that clearly belonged to the Chinese heritage. Other surrounding countries may confiscate this property. So, Fang Lang concluded that even if Paul used the vehicles of the French transport company to transport, he would never transport these materials back to France. When Colonel Chatham''s adjutant introduced to Fang Lang the safe route to Switzerland, Fang Lang knew that he didn''t even have to keep an eye on Captain Gerrard. Therefore, Fang Lang began to let people only need to keep an eye on the French army transport convoy leaving from Stuttgart while the French Leo and the others were unearthing the treasure. And place personnel at several important nodes of this safety line for monitoring. So, after our Gestapo Mr. Leon escaped from the hospital through the golden cicada, we can no longer find anyone following him. Those who followed him had already been waiting in front of him for his arrival. This made Mr. Leon search with his eyes wide open all the way, but he didn''t find anything unusual. The speed of water transportation is not fast. After a whole day of sailing, Mr. Leon''s ship finally entered Basel, Switzerland along the Rhine River when it was just dark. Basel, Switzerland is located at the bend of the Rhine River and is a border city at the junction of Germany, France and Switzerland. After the ship entered Basel, Mr. Leon finally breathed a sigh of relief. Of course their ships did not enter the city of Basel, but continued along the upper reaches of the Rhine. Finally, it docked at a small private pier more than 20 kilometers away from the city of Basel. This small pier is very remote, and there are no lights in the night. Maybe it was already arranged, or maybe everyone was too tired after a day of sailing. After the ship docked, no one disembarked. What they didn''t notice was that there was a late-returning fishing boat. When passing by them, more than a dozen black figures on the boat quietly dived into the icy river. There was also a dark shadow on the shore slowly touching the pier. Dangers often appear when you think it is safe to relax your vigilance, and Leon, the Gestapo, did not escape such a fate in the end. Diving in the water and fighting on board are fundamental subjects for the Marine Corps. So, except for a few undetectable muffled hums, the night quickly returned to calm. When the ship was on board and the lights were turned on again, Fang Lang boarded the ship from the pier unhurriedly. When he came to the cabin and saw three corpses on the ground, Fang Lang recognized the guy who called himself Paul at a glance. As for staying alive, and bragging to the other party about how he discovered his plan in a whirlwind way, and how he caught him, Fang Lang would not do it. After all, this is all the fun of the villain''s street rush, and Fang Lang is not a villain, how could he have such boring thoughts! The most important thing is that he knows that villains often die because of talking too much. Wait, what other desperate means does the Gestapo have, not to mention hurting him, even hurting flowers and plants is not good! In short, Fang Lang would never admit that he spared his life. After confirming the identities of the people on the ground, Fang Lang stopped paying attention and turned to look at the warehouse. This is a diesel-powered cargo ship with at least 1,000 tons, which can be regarded as a relatively new type of cargo ship. The goods in the warehouse at this time are not small, and they are stuffed slowly. Fang Lang knew that if it was all gold, it would definitely not have such a large volume, so he went up to pick up a crowbar, opened one of the rectangular crates, and found that there were carefully wrapped oil paintings inside. Although Fang Lang is not familiar with Western oil painting art, he also understands that the paintings that can be collected by the German government as treasures are definitely not ordinary paintings. I glanced at it twice, and after confirming that I hadn''t seen it, I stopped paying attention. Opened a few more large boxes and found sculptures, bronzes, and porcelain from his hometown. Fang Lang understood that the things were right. But he didn''t see gold, which was a bit of Fang Lang''s surprise. After turning around twice, I found that some small ammunition boxes were padded at the bottom of the cabin and used as ballast. Considering that there are so many fighters around, if you are dazzled by gold and your mind is deluded by money, it is not good to have any unrealistic ideas. So Fang Lang didn''t open the ammunition box underneath to check. clapped his hands and said to everyone: "Okay, our operation this time can be regarded as a successful conclusion. Congratulations in advance to everyone, we will all be rich when we get back to Brazil. " Everyone let out a knowing smile. Everyone knows that their chief is not a stingy person. Since he told everyone that they got rich, it means that they can also share a lot of profits from this batch of goods. Fang Lang certainly can''t be stingy with his brothers who followed him through life and death. The value of these works of art is not easy to estimate. He is going to take out 30% of the gold in the ammunition box and distribute it to those who participated in this operation. But dont think that 30% is less. As the chief, I predicted in advance and found that this goal must be the big one. The most important thing is that after these guys made a lot of money, they all retired when they went back, and Fang Lang lost a lot. "Thanks, sir!" Looking at all the smiling soldiers. Fang Lang smiled and said: "Don''t be too happy, everyone, before things are shipped to the insurance of the Bank of Brazil and locked up, there are still certain variables. If this shipment is discovered by other countries, we may have to work in vain. So, I want to remind everyone, don''t tell anyone about tonight''s actions, and don''t tell anyone that you are about to get rich. As for how much you can share, we will not be able to tell you until we ship it back to Brazil for specific statistics. I plan to take out 30% of the gold and distribute it to everyone. Don''t think too little. " Everyone heard that 30% was allocated to them, which made everyone start talking. Although it is not yet possible to confirm what 30% is, there are not many of them. After the assignment, each person must struggle for at least ten years. Most importantly, they didn''t do anything, which made them all ecstatic. You said to Fang Lang and said to Fang Lang: "Thank you boss, the boss is generous." This is different from Japan. In Japan, the Japanese wrapped gold in copper to prevent people from discovering it. No one knew there was gold in it. I thought I just harvested some bronze vessels and copper rods, so I had no idea. However, this time everyone knows that this is a real treasure, so if Fang Lang doesn''t offer some benefits, it will inevitably make the soldiers under him feel dissatisfied. (end of this chapter) Chapter 216: zurich Chapter 216 Zurich Fang Lang carefully observed everyone''s expressions, and saw that everyone was really thankful, and had no other thoughts, so he put his heart down halfway, and continued: "After things return home safely, I will open a bank account for each of you at the Brazilian Development Bank, deposit the money in the bank, and let you deposit and withdraw freely. I know that many of you do not have the habit of saving money, and the conditions at home are not very good. I hope that everyone will use the money to buy houses and properties. Dont be squeezed dry by the girls of our Natal Entertainment Street! " Everyone laughed loudly after hearing this, realizing that Fang Lang was doing it for their own good, and each of them felt more at ease. After seeing that everyone had no problem, Fang Lang ordered Zhuang Xintian to say: "Search the bodies of these three guys to see if there are any other discoveries. If not, find a place to bury them." "Yes, boss!" Zhuang Xintian immediately stood at attention and took orders, groping around the three corpses. Fang Lang said to Qi Qingshan next to him: "Look for a cargo ship with a larger tonnage and transfer things up. Then, install the equipment we purchased in Switzerland on it, and then it will be directly shipped by sea and shipped back to China. There are too many things and the weight is too large, so it is not suitable to go by air. " Qi Qingshan nodded and said: "Got it, boss!" Zhuang Xintian quickly stacked the things found from the bodies of the three people neatly on the floor of the cabin. Fang Lang stepped forward with interest and picked up a pistol that was different from the Luger pistols of the other two and looked at it. "Is this found on this guy Paul?" Zhuang Xintian took a look, nodded and said: "Yes, boss." Then he continued to start his own bag licking business. The reason why Fang Lang took a fancy to this pistol at a glance was because Fang Lang discovered that this pistol actually had an ivory handle, and it was inlaid with complicated patterns in gold. As a soldier, his love for firearms is undeniable. It turned out that Fang Lang didn''t know much about guns, but since the Luger pistol gave him the first start-up capital, Fang Lang began to take the initiative to learn about various firearms. In the knowledge he learned, the German army seems to use standard pistols such as the Ruger P38. This pistol is completely different from the Ruger pistol, and it looks a bit like a Walther PPK pistol. That is, the appearance is somewhat similar to M1911 and Browning, but if you look closely, you will find that there is no hammer leaking out of this gun. It''s just that there is an insurance in the same place as Walther PPK. This made Fang Lang feel very novel. He held it in his hand and played with it repeatedly. The grip fit his hand very well. He glanced at the Gestapo lying on the ground, smiled, and picked up the holster and stuffed it into his pocket. It''s not that Fang Lang likes this pistol very much. In Fang Lang''s mind, guns are used to kill people, and ease of use is more important than anything else. His own gun is an M1911. Whether or not to say that this M1911 can become a classic gun must be his reason. Anyway, Fang Lang thinks it is very useful. Therefore, it is natural to use him as his own combat weapon. Whether you have the opportunity to use it in actual combat or not, you must make sure that you use it most smoothly. If you have nothing to do, you should take it out to practice your gun feel and remind yourself of the importance of having a gun in your hand. And Fang Lang put this pistol he didn''t know into his pocket, just out of a good habit of not leaving empty space and searching for trophies, although people didn''t kill themselves. However, the German Gestapo died in his own hands. It is not too much to seize a pistol as a trophy, right! It''s a pity that this guy lay down too quickly and didn''t have a chance to answer what model this pistol was. Actually, this cannot be blamed on Fang Lang''s short-sightedness. This pistol has always been used as a weapon for senior German generals. Of course, it is also used as a symbol of honor and presented to outstanding officers and soldiers as rewards. This also led to the Sig Sauer M38H pistol produced by the Belgian FN company, which is basically not seen by many people now. After all, this is a pistol that has never experienced actual combat. Because there are very few opportunities for generals to use their own guns, when the war requires generals to shoot, it basically means that the war is coming to an end. However, due to the small production of this gun, it is very valuable in later generations. The highest transaction value seems to be 400,000 US dollars per gun. Soon Zhuang Xintian''s bag licking operation came to an end. Fang Lang squatted down and looked among his belongings on the ground, but he didn''t find anything special. It was a red passport that made Fang Lang interested. He opened the passport and looked at the photo. The person in the photo was the Gestapo who claimed to be Paul. Because he doesn''t understand German, this time it''s a military operation and he didn''t bring an assistant who can understand German with him, so he can only tell Qi Qingshan to say: "Tomorrow, I will find someone to confirm the information and address on this passport, and go to find out his background. I didn''t expect this kid to have a Swiss passport long ago. Check to see if this address is real, if it is true, who else exists at this address, and investigate the situation clearly. " Qi Qingshan found the red Swiss passport without any hassle. After looking at it carefully, he said: "Yes, sir. If there is this guy''s family at this address, do we need it?" As he spoke, he made a gesture of cutting his throat. Fang Lang glared at Qi Qingshan and said: "We don''t have any grudges against him, why move his family! I just want to make sure if this guy has any other backhands or secrets in Switzerland. If it''s just family, ignore it. " "Understood, sir." After finishing speaking, Fang Lang thought for a while and said to Zhuang Xintian: "Among this guy''s men, we can ignore the guy named Leo, the French occupation army will definitely deal with him. However, the commander of the French transport company named Gerard still needs us to kill him. Otherwise, no one but us will know of the existence of this shipment. " Zhuang Xintian responded immediately: "Yes, sir, we will immediately notify the soldiers monitoring him in Germany to act." Looking at Zhuang Xintian who was eager and eager to clear the traces immediately, Fang Lang patted him on the shoulder with a smile and said: "No, not immediately, let the soldiers pay attention, this guy will definitely kill the people of the French transport company. After he silences the people in the transportation company, shall we understand? Otherwise, the entire transportation company has more than 100 people, and it would be too much trouble for us to silence them. Also, remind our people, this guy is a Gestapo, don''t capsize in the gutter. He has just participated in such a big operation, maybe he is in a period of high tension in his heart, he must have absolute certainty before taking action, understand? " It is still necessary to be vigilant about the combat capabilities of intelligence personnel. This is the experience Fang Lang has gained from later generations. After all, he was also worried. If this guy named Gerald was not killed by them, but he touched the tail of his group, then the safety of this batch of goods would be in danger. It''s not that he can come and **** it, he only needs to disclose the information to the allies, and Fang Lang will have absolutely no chance to ship the goods back to the country. Zhuang Xintian is obviously also a person who knows the importance. After listening to Fang Lang''s words, he nodded and said: "Boss, then I''ll take a few more people and make a trip myself." Fang Lang thought for a while, now he is in Switzerland, not Germany, so there is no need to worry about safety, so he nodded and said: "Alright, then you should be careful." As the largest city in Switzerland and the richest city in Europe in the future, Zurich is far less famous than Geneva in this era. Because the Geneva Treaty was known all over the world during the war years, some people may not have heard of Switzerland, but they may have heard of Geneva. But this does not mean that Zurich is inferior to Geneva. As a representative city of the Swiss banking industry, it will become one of the largest financial centers in the world in the future. After handling the cargo in Basel last night, Fang Lang did not stay in Basel, but rushed back to the hotel in Zurich overnight. Of course, he didn''t come here to negotiate business with Swiss machine tool companies. This kind of small matter of purchasing equipment does not require Fang Lang to do it himself. If it weren''t for Paul''s shipment of goods, Fang Lang would never have come to Switzerland, but now that he is in Switzerland, Fang Lang of course wants to relax. As for why he rushed back to Zurich overnight, it was because Fang Lang didn''t want people to know that he had left Zurich. After all, this operation should be as concealed as possible. Zurich in this era was actually very prosperous, especially when other countries were in war, Switzerland became the only safe haven, and many wealthy people came to Switzerland to settle down. This has allowed wealth from all over the world to flow to the small country of Switzerland, and with the end of the war, war-torn countries all need post-war reconstruction, and post-war reconstruction requires funds. Now representatives of European countries are seeking financial support from various banks in Switzerland. In fact, this is also the reason why European countries know that a large amount of wealth in Germany has been transferred to Switzerland, but they cannot forcefully ask for it from Switzerland. Switzerland is the only country other than the United States that can provide financial support to other countries. If you don''t want to become a vassal of the United States completely, you must seek help from Switzerland. This further promoted the prosperity of Switzerland. Fang Lang''s feeling of walking on the streets of Zurich is completely different from that of New York, because there are no high-rise buildings in New York, and there are no people passing by in New York. Some are just an indescribable leisurely complacency, which makes Fang Lang''s mood involuntarily relaxed. Since arriving in Switzerland, there is no reason not to buy a few watches for himself and his family, so Fang Lang''s first goal is to find various watch shops on the shopping street. There are many watch brands that are well-known in later generations, and you can find your own counters here. Before rebirth, Fang Lang could not afford to buy these outrageously expensive high-end watches, but now Fang Lang can scan goods at various watch counters like shopping in a vegetable market. Fang Lang, who has the vision and knowledge of future generations, chooses some very valuable brands and styles, which will appreciate in value even if he doesn''t take it with him after he buys it back. Fang Lang spent the whole morning enjoying the fun of sweeping goods. This was a feeling he had never enjoyed before. This feeling was so fascinating that Fang Lang was almost lost for a while. All the way leisurely, wandering the streets of Zurich leisurely, the whole body and mind are relaxed. (end of this chapter) Chapter 217: Conrad Zuse Chapter 217 Conrad Zuse The cold wind on the streets of Zurich couldn''t dampen Fang Lang''s enthusiasm, so he stopped and walked all the way, and unknowingly came to the outside of the University of Zurich. Looking at the university full of history in front of him, Fang Lang was full of envy and asked the assistant beside him: "Do you know this university?" The assistant is a three-generation German immigrant young man with blond hair who looks very handsome. Being able to enter the Fangyuan Group and become one of Fang Lang''s assistants, he graduated from the University of Sao Paulo in Brazil. However, the University of Sao Paulos establishment time and historical and cultural heritage cannot be compared with the University of Zurich in front of it. This is like the dj vu of a junior college student visiting Tsinghua Garden in later generations. The assistant is looking at the world famous school in front of him with a bright face at the moment. After hearing Fang Lang''s question, he nodded quickly and said: "Boss, of course I know, this is Einstein''s alma mater." Fang Lang looked at the assistant''s yearning expression, smiled and said: "Come on, let''s go in and have a look." The full name of the University of Zurich is ETH Zurich. The old campus is located in the center of Zurich and is completely integrated with the city. There are no school gates or walls. So, Fang Lang, who has been a man for two generations, had the opportunity to visit for the first time. I don''t know if it was because of the cold weather. Except for young people who occasionally walked by, there were not many people passing by outside the school. It looks a little deserted, but Fang Lang can see through the windows of the teaching building that there are students studying in class. Of course, Fang Lang is not easy to enter the teaching building to visit and study in this case. "You said, how about we build a university like this in Brazil?" Stopping all the way, Fang Lang asked the assistant beside him. "what!" The assistant beside him was looking around dizzyingly, and didn''t know how to answer Fang Lang''s question for a while. Fang Lang actually didn''t want to hear the answer from the assistant''s mouth. However, he is already thinking in his heart that he will build a research university in Rio Grande do Sul to serve his own country, and in the future, he will give Chinese people the opportunity to directly learn the world''s cutting-edge scientific knowledge. I don''t know if I was thinking about how to answer Fang Lang''s question, but the assistant looking around accidentally bumped into a middle-aged white man who was about thirty-six or seventeen years old. The stack of materials in the hands of the white man was scattered all over the floor. Seeing this, the assistant hurriedly stepped forward to apologize, and bent down to help him pick up the materials on the ground. Fang Lang also looked embarrassed, and bent down to help pick up the materials on the ground. The materials were all in German, and Fang Lang couldn''t understand them, but one of the drawings caught Fang Lang''s attention. Because the few buttons drawn on this drawing were marked with numbers and the symbols of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, Fang Lang was taken aback and his heart beat wildly. Are there computers in this era? It''s a pity that Fang Lang didn''t major in computer or electronic engineering. Therefore, Fang Lang didn''t know when computers appeared. But looking at the blueprint in front of him, Fang Lang felt that even if it wasn''t a computer, it was definitely a calculator. I just dont know whether this thing is purely mechanical or electronic. Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Fang Lang cleared his throat and said: "Sir, I apologize for my assistant''s recklessness!" The assistant around him also quickly translated. The middle-aged man looked up at Fang Lang and the few people standing behind Fang Lang. Hearing what the assistant said, he understood that the young yellow man in front of him was his boss. smiled very gently, nodded to Fang Lang and said: "It doesn''t matter, and I can''t blame him, I think he came to this university for the first time like me. So, it''s normal to be distracted. " Hearing that the other party said that it was also the first time for him to come to this university, Fang Lang was taken aback, looked at the information in his hand, and then at the other party''s appearance. In terms of age, he is definitely not a student, and he thought the other party was a teacher of this school. "Oh! Sir, aren''t you a professor at this school?" The middle-aged white man said while sorting out the materials in his hand: "No, I just moved from Germany to Switzerland not long ago, and I encountered a small problem in my research. I want to come to Zurich Institute of Technology to seek some help." Fang Lang looked at the information in the other party''s hand, and his heart was a little hot. Did he meet a wild scientist? Isn''t the computer invented by Yankees? Did this guy later go to the United States to develop? "Oh! Are you studying computers?" Fang Lang''s words obviously shocked the white man in front of him. He looked up at Fang Lang with wide-eyed eyes, and said with an unbelievable expression: "You know about computers?" Of course Fang Lang knows about computers, but what he knows are computers of later generations. As for whether the current computer has appeared, he is really not very clear, but he clearly remembers that when he visited Bell Labs, the transistor had not been successfully researched. Even if there is an electronic computer in this period, it must be a tube computer, but I dont know how it performs. I don''t know the specific situation, but this does not prevent Fang Lang from bragging. "Of course, the Bell Labs I invested in in the United States is engaged in related research work." In fact, the first electronic computer in the United States was born at the University of Pennsylvania in the United States in 1946, and it has nothing to do with Bell Labs. However, in Fang Lang''s mind, Bell Labs is the greatest existence of this era, so he put this hat on Bell Labs'' head without hesitation. "You mean, there are other people in the world who are doing related research." The reaction of the middle-aged white man was a bit unexpected to Fang Lang, and he couldn''t help but start beating the drums in his heart. It can''t be that the United States hasn''t started researching computers yet! Pretending to be too much, but it''s a bit embarrassing. But the words have already been spoken, Fang Lang certainly can''t back down, and it''s not easy to answer the other party''s question directly, so he can only ask rhetorically: "Huh! Haven''t you communicated with your peers?" Fang Lang''s question obviously hit the man''s pain point. The man blushed and said embarrassedly: I used to live in Germany and had little communication with other countries in the world. Therefore, I dont know that other countries are also engaged in related research. Seriously took a look at the man in front of him, with a scrupulously hunched head, wearing a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and the coat on his body looked neat. But Fang Lang can also see that the other party''s economic conditions are not particularly good. After slowly thinking about it, Fang Lang reached out to the other party, and politely introduced himself: "Hello! My name is Fang Lang, a Brazilian of Chinese descent. I wonder if I have the honor to invite you for a cup of coffee." The middle-aged white man obviously wanted to get some latest news about computers from Fang Lang, so he said without hesitation: "Of course, my name is Conrad Zuse. It''s a pleasure to meet you. I hope to ask you for some latest news about electronic computers." After the two greeted each other politely, they found a roadside coffee shop directly. The environment of the coffee shop is very good, and the two found a corner against the wall to sit down. Originally, Konrad Chuze wanted to find a seat by the window, but now Fang Lang has a paranoia of being persecuted, and feels that there are always troublemakers who want to harm me. So, I hid directly in a hidden corner in the corner. "Mr. Chu Ze, I don''t know how far your computer research has reached. Have you started applying it?" In order to be able to take the initiative in the conversation, Fang Lang took the lead in asking about Conrad Zuze''s research progress. Because Fang Lang was the first person who was able to communicate with him on computer technology, Conrad Zuze didn''t hide anything, and replied directly: "I started to study computers in 1938, and the latest progress is the Z-4 ??electromagnetic electronic computer successfully developed in 1945. The memory unit has also been expanded from 64 bits of Z-3 to 1024 bits. . As for the application, the Z-3 of the previous generation has been used by us to analyze the data analysis of the aircraft''s biplane shake stability, which is very useful. " Hearing this answer, Fang Lang felt turbulent in his heart. Isn''t this a proper protagonist template? You can meet the great **** who is walking around casually. At this moment, Fang Lang''s eyes began to shine, or Conrad Chuze at this time is a shining baby in Fang Lang''s eyes. When the other party talked about data analysis, Fang Lang recalled some memories about computers. He remembered that during World War II, there was a Turing Award for computers in later generations. The name of this award comes from a scientist named Turing. The research done by this scientist seems to be about computers, but unlike the direction used by Konrad Zuse, the main application direction of Turing computers seems to be code breaking. In this way, it seems that Britain also had computer technology in this period, and Britain must have the United States. It seems that his cowhide has not been blown out, but Fang Lang has no way to be sure about the progress of the computer technology research in Britain and the United States. However, one thing is certain is that the Mr. Conrad Zuse in front of him is definitely a heavyweight figure in the history of computers. I must not let such a character slip away from me. Just now I was thinking about establishing my own experimental university. Why not start with the establishment of a computer research laboratory to establish a research university. "Mr. Chu Ze, as far as I know, during the war, a computer developed by a British scientist named Turing was engaged in the deciphering of German codes. As for who is faster and who is slower in your research progress, this is beyond my understanding. However, I have to say that you must be a genius scientist, because scientists in the United Kingdom and the United States have a certain degree of communication, and you actually started your research in Germany alone, and you were able to succeed in your research. " Fang Lang gave a thumbs up to the middle-aged man in front of him. But after hearing Fang Lang''s words, the other party said a little decadently: "Unfortunately, my Z-4 computer has been moved by the British, and now I can only conduct some theoretical research on computer software." After listening to the theory of computer software, Fang Lang was even more convinced that the middle-aged man opposite him was definitely a baby, a super baby. Isn''t this just programming? Fang Lang is too clear about the role of programming on future computers. At this moment, Fang Lang''s thought was to tie the Mr. Conrad Chuze in front of him to Brazil. (end of this chapter) Chapter 218: invite Chapter 218 Invitation Of course Konrad Zuze didnt know, at this moment he was already being watched by the young man in front of him, and he was thinking about how to tie him back to Brazil! "Oh! Why are you moving to computer software theory instead of continuing to work on the next generation of computers?" Fang Lang knew the consultant said. Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Conrad Zuze was obviously a little embarrassed, and said embarrassedly: "The first and second generation computers were developed with my own money, and the third and fourth generations were successfully developed with the support of the German Aircraft Experimental Institute, but now. So, I can only do some research on software theory in my small courtyard. " At this moment, Fang Lang still didn''t understand Conrad Chuze''s situation, so he quickly said apologetically: "I''m sorry, Mr. Chu Ze, I made a slip of the tongue. I don''t know what kind of help you want to get at the University of Zurich? As far as I know, there are no scientists doing computer-related research in Zurich now, and the frontiers of these technologies are all in the United Kingdom and the United States. Why don''t you consider going to the United Kingdom and the United States to continue your research? " "Mr. Fang, thank you for your reminder! After my visit to the professors at the University of Zurich in the past two days, although everyone has done some research in this area. However, their research progress is not as fast as mine, so I didn''t get much help. Maybe you are right, I should go to Britain and America to get in touch with some more advanced ideas. However, I''m German, and my computer was used in the military during the war, and I fear being judged for it. " Konrad Zuses words are not unfounded. There are indeed many such examples in this period. Many scientists taken away by the United States and the Soviet Union were also taken away in the name of arrest. So, Conrad Zuse''s concerns are very reasonable. When Conrad Chuze said this, Fang Lang knew his chance had come. "Well! You are right! I also heard that many scientists were captured by Britain, the United States and the Soviet Union. However, your hiding in Switzerland is not a long-term solution. You make me think! " After finishing speaking, Fang Lang pretended to think for a while before saying: "How about it! Mr. Chu Ze, I still have some strength in Brazil, I can invest in you to set up a computer research laboratory in Brazil. Since it is not convenient for you to go to other countries, I can spend a lot of money to invite some outstanding scientists from other countries to join your research team and set up a computer research laboratory headed by you. At the same time, use my relationship in the United States to obtain some cutting-edge research information on computers and provide you with reference. What do you think? " Konrad Zuze obviously did not expect that the young man he met for the first time in front of him would directly propose funding him to set up a brand new laboratory. In his mind, of course he is unwilling to give up his own research, and at the same time he also wants to know the research progress of other countries in the world. But the young man on the opposite side, I just met today for the first time, and we don''t know each other well. And the other party''s proposal was so sudden that he hadn''t made any preparations, which made him not know how to reply to the other party for a while. Fang Lang saw that the other party hesitated, unable to make up his mind, and knew that his suggestion was a bit abrupt. Thinking that the other party was worried that he would be arrested by the allies, he smiled and said: "Mr. Chu Ze, please rest assured! Since I have sent you an invitation, I am sure to ensure your safety. Let me tell you the truth! I am actually not a pure businessman, I have another identity as a naval officer in Brazil. The reason why I appeared in Europe was to use my status as a military officer of an allied country to find some technical support for my family business in Brazil. I have been looking for outstanding talents in various industries in Germany some time ago. You just said that your computer is used in Germany to analyze the data analysis of the vibration stability of aircraft wings. I wonder if you know Mr. Kurt Tank and the Horton Brothers. " Conrad Chuze''s eyes widened when he heard Fang Lang''s words, and asked with a face full of disbelief: "You''re not going to tell me they''re working for you right now?" Seeing the other party''s expression, Fang Lang knew that he must know the other party''s identity. Now that he knew it, it was easy to say. But at the same time, Fang Lang couldn''t help wondering why Polman, who is also a talent in the aircraft research and experiment industry, didn''t help Fang Lang discover Conrad Zuse in advance. It seems that Polman is not sensitive enough to new technologies! Fang Lang smiled slightly at Conrad Zuze''s surprise. "It seems that you know them, don''t be surprised, they have indeed been recruited by me, and now they are building a brand new aircraft research laboratory in Brazil. If you want to meet them, I can take you directly to meet them. " Fang Lang''s attitude made Conrad Chuze have to believe it, because this kind of thing couldn''t be concealed at all. If he was deceived, Fang Lang would not be able to explain clearly if he couldn''t see the other party at that time. However, Conrad Zuze was recruited by a stranger he met on the road today, which made him feel unreal, and he definitely couldn''t make a choice for a while. So, after hesitating again and again, he said tactfully: "Thank you for your invitation, Mr. Fang! But this is so sudden, I am not ready to change to a new working environment immediately. So, can I think about it for two days first. " Seeing Conrad Chuze for a while seems to be unable to make up his mind, and Fang Lang also knows that he can''t push too hard. However, I don''t want the other party to slip away from my hand. Rolling his eyes, he smiled and said: "Of course no problem, this is your freedom. But you can listen to what kind of help I can provide for this lab, and then go back and think about it. First of all, I will build a professional laboratory in a beautiful place and purchase all the cutting-edge technology products you need from all over the world. At the same time, we will recruit scholars from all over the world who are engaged in related product research to assist you in conducting experiments, We will also search for the latest relevant technical materials and academic papers all over the world for your reference and study. Even, I plan to build a research-oriented college around your laboratory. If it goes well, I hope to build it into a research-oriented university like Zurich. The most important thing is that the funding of this research laboratory will be entirely borne by me. In the early stage, I can provide a monthly research funding of 50,000 US dollars for this laboratory. If practical results can be produced, I will issue bonuses and additional research funds to the research institute according to the actual situation. You and your family will be able to live a comfortable life in Brazil. " After Fang Lang said this series of conditions, Conrad Chuze was in a state of being stunned by the pie falling from the sky. If you say you are not tempted by such good conditions, then you are absolutely not. possible. But at the same time, he also felt strange why the young rich man whom he met for the first time in front of him was willing to pay such a high price and invest so much money to fund his own research. Not to mention the realization of the experimental results, this need not be said by the other party, Konrad Chuze also knows that the other party must want to use his own research results to make a profit, but he doesn''t understand whether such a large investment is worth it? It made him feel very unreal, and the young man on the other side didn''t look like a fool with a lot of money, did he? In the end, I still couldn''t hold back, and asked with a puzzled face: "why?" In this world, there may be no second person who knows better than Fang Lang what a computer means. Fang Lang believed in Conrad Zuze in front of him, and he didn''t know what kind of changes computers could bring to the world. From the sentence he asked, it can be seen that he does not have a very clear understanding of the future of computers. At this time, Fang Lang will act as a prophet or life mentor to guide these scientists who are still groping forward in the fog of science, avoid detours, and reach the other shore. Because, I think computers are the future, it will trigger the third industrial revolution after the electrical age, and it will change the way people live in the future. Conrad Zuze obviously didn''t understand Fang Lang''s evaluation of computers. At first, his original intention of inventing the computer was to deal with heavy calculation work, and he just regarded it as a calculation tool. His first computer was a mechanical calculator that used some thin steel plates connected by screws. Sometimes, if science and technology do not develop to a certain level, even the person who invented it can''t imagine what he can do. Although he didn''t understand it, he could tell that Fang Lang really valued his computer technology. This made the balance in his heart unconsciously tilted to follow Fang Lang to Brazil. Although, I dont see yet whether computers can really be the future as you say. But, I have to say, you really impressed me. Please give me some time, I need to go home and discuss with my family before I can finally make a decision. " Hearing Conrad Chuze said that he would go home to discuss with his family, Fang Lang knew that his opportunity had come, and quickly said: "Mr. Chu Ze, I wonder if I have the honor to visit your home." Fang Lang''s request for a visit made Conrad Chuze unable to refuse for a while, after all, it would appear impolite. can only be a little tweaked: "My home is not in Zurich. It''s in the small town of Hinterstein, which is nearly two hours'' drive away." Fang Lang didn''t even need to speak, the assistant who had been acting as a translator by his side had already offered to express that they had chartered a hotel car in Switzerland, and now they could send Conrad Zuze home. For the Konrad Zuse family, who fled from Germany, it was a great fortune to be able to rent a dilapidated house in Switzerland and settle down. The family did not have a fixed job in Switzerland. When Konrad Zuse brought a convoy of five cars to this small town in central Switzerland, he said he would take them to Brazil to start a new life. . Everyone is very excited. After all, Conrad Chuze is the pillar of the family now. Now he can only do some theoretical research at home, because he has no formal job and no financial income at all. If they continue to sit and eat like this, their family will soon run out of food. Therefore, they can make a choice without thinking about whether they are willing to follow Fang Lang to work and live in Brazil. Fang Lang, who originally came to Switzerland only for the treasure in the hands of the Gestapo, is already satisfied with the harvest in Switzerland. This is a typical double happiness! (end of this chapter) Chapter 219: Goodbye General Clark Chapter 219 Goodbye to General Clark In New York in April 1946, the weather was still not getting warmer. Fang Lang has been in the United States for three days. After arranging to send Conrad Zuze, who he met in Switzerland, to Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, Fang Lang rushed to the United States without stopping. Even the matter of the treasure was handed over to his adjutant. Zhuang Xintian, who served as the security platoon leader, would personally be responsible for escorting the goods back to China after handling the German extermination mission. The reason why Fang Lang rushed to the United States in such a hurry was because Jefferson, the general manager of Shata Company, sent a telegram to inform Fang Lang that after the unremitting efforts of the public relations department of Shata Company. Finally persuaded the Secretary of the Navy of the United States to agree to sell an aircraft carrier to Brazil, but the specific model and configuration still need to be discussed by Brazilian personnel. So Fang Lang could only hastily ended his trip to Switzerland and came to the United States, planning to visit the Secretary of the Navy at the U.S. Navy Department first. At this time, the U.S. Department of Defense has not yet been established. The U.S. only has the Department of the Navy and the Department of the Army. As a Brazilian Navy who has served under the command of the American Pacific Fleet, he is very aware of how much power the U.S. Department of the Navy has and how powerful the U.S. Department of the Navy is. As soon as the Ministry of the Navy agreed to sell the aircraft carrier, Fang Lang asked Jefferson who the current Secretary of the Navy was, and planned to launch targeted persuasion work. This question turned out to be an old acquaintance, and he was also his superior General Nimitz during the Pacific War. It''s a pity that although he has served under General Nimitz, he has never had direct contact with the other party, but it doesn''t matter that he also has acquaintances in the US Navy! Although General Clark always defends himself against himself, he has retired now, so the situation is definitely different from when he was serving. Besides, I never thought about asking General Clark to persuade General Nimitz on my behalf. I just came forward to introduce him, so there should be no problem! In fact, since the Shata Company has successfully persuaded the Secretary of the Navy, General Nimitz, it is actually no problem for Fang Lang to visit General Nimitz directly. However, according to Fang Lang''s habitual thinking, he still wants to follow the route introduced by acquaintances, which will make it easier to draw in the relationship between the two. More importantly, this time it is impossible for Fang Lang to negotiate on behalf of the Brazilian Navy alone, but the Brazilian Navy needs to arrange more important figures to participate in the negotiations. You can''t let Fang Lang, a colonel, be responsible for all the fights! Of course, there are some negotiations where a verbal agreement is reached between the bigwigs on both sides, and then the subordinates start negotiating the details. There is another way that the people below will first reach a consensus at the next level according to the wishes of both parties, and after obtaining the consent of the superior, then let the big shots of both parties come forward and sign. In the first two days, accompanied by Jefferson, the general manager of Shata Company, Fang Lang was familiar with the types of aircraft carriers currently in service in the United States, the various types of carrier-based equipment equipped, and the types of carrier-based aircraft suitable for carrying them. After two days of familiarization, Fang Lang already had a clear goal in his mind, that is, the Essex-class aircraft carrier with the largest number of U.S. troops and the most powerful combat effectiveness. As for whether the Americans will agree to sell this new type of aircraft carrier to Brazil, Fang Lang has no idea. But since it''s already here, there''s no reason to back down, isn''t it? After a year, Fang Lang came to General Clark''s house in New York again. After retiring, General Clark lived a very leisurely life, and his biggest hobby was fishing. When Fang Lang came to the door of General Clark''s house, he happened to see General Clark in casual overalls going out with a fishing rod and other tools. General Clark was taken aback when he saw Fang Lang, and took the initiative to say: "Fang, why are you free to visit me, a retired old guy?" "Uncle Clark, from what you said, John and I are good brothers. He is busy with work and has no time to stay by your side. As a friend, of course I have the obligation to come and help him visit his family!" Fang Lang said with a smile. It''s a pity that the old man General Clark has seen through Fang Lang''s nature long ago, knowing that this guy is a little fox, so he wouldn''t be so kind. So he joked directly: "You have such a kind heart, why don''t I believe it so much!" Fang Lang didn''t mind either, and changed the subject: "Uncle Clark is going fishing? That''s just right, I like fishing too. Come, come, let me carry your things for you, and we will go fishing together. Is there only one fishing rod? You can help me find one too! Let''s compare and see who catches the most fish and whoever catches the biggest fish. " As soon as he saw Fang Lang''s posture of entanglement, Clark knew that he would not be able to escape today. Shaking his head helplessly, he pointed Fang Lang with his finger and said: "You little fox, there must be no good things, and you still accompany my old man to fish, are you so kind? I can make it clear that I am now retired. I talked about things in the army, but it didn''t help. " Fang Lang smiled and didn''t mind General Clark''s behavior of gagging himself. He didn''t know what the old boy meant. He was his son''s savior. I dont know how to be grateful at all, and I have to rely on me to make connections. "Look at what you said, you are a retired naval admiral, what can I think of you. Isn''t this here to do some business in the United States, and come to see Mrs. Clark and Sister Sophia? Although you don''t want to see me, Mrs. Clark has been of great help to me. I came here this time to thank Mrs. Clark for her help. " Clark looked at Fang Lang with an expression of disbelief when he heard Fang Lang''s words: "Do you think I believe it or not?" Before General Clark finished speaking, Mrs. Clark''s gentle voice came from behind: "What are you talking about? Fang is John''s savior. When did our family become so ungrateful. " Actually, General Clark is not really without gratitude. If this was the case, he would not ask his old friend General Jackson to take care of Fang Lang. Fang Lang has no chance to stand out from the Brazilian Navy so quickly. It''s just that through contact with Fang Lang on the Pacific battlefield, General Clark understood that this seemingly harmless guy in front of him was a little fox, and he would fall into his way if he was not careful. Both of them know what kind of person the other is. Therefore, although the communication seems unharmonious, it is actually more about reminding the other not to go too far. This makes others seem to have a sense of dj vu as an enemy. Fang Lang had long discovered that Mrs. Clark was attracted by the communication between the two outside the door, so he deliberately said that he was here to thank Mrs. Clark. From what Mrs. Clark said, Fang Lang discovered a very interesting thing. Perhaps General Clark, who was decisive in the army, did not have a high status at home. When General Clark heard the voice behind him, his ears tightened, and he turned around quickly: "Ma''am, you don''t know, this kid is a little fox. He came here suddenly today, and his purpose must not be pure." Mrs. Clark did not listen to General Clark, but said to Fang Lang: "Fang, ignore this stubborn old man, I''m glad you can come to see me again." Fang Lang also quickly handed over the gift he had prepared to Mrs. Clark and said: "Madam''s demeanor is even better than last year. I am really glad to see you again!" "Haha. Is it true! I think so too! Come in! Let''s ignore this unreasonable old man. " Mrs. Clark was very happy when she heard Fang Lang''s compliment. She completely ignored the livid General Clark and welcomed Fang Lang into the living room. General Clark, who was standing outside the door, thought for a while, but was still worried that his wife would be fooled by this little fox. He gritted his teeth, put down the fishing tools in his hand, and turned to go home. Fang Lang sat on the sofa very naturally, enjoying the coffee served by Mrs. Clark. Seeing General Clark coming in, he still did not forget to greet him with the coffee in his hand, which made General Clark grit his teeth in anger. Ms. Clarke was checking the gift Fang Lang brought her. When the gift box was opened, Krakoff said with a surprised face: "My God! This is a Vacheron Constantin watch, is this a diamond? My God! This is so beautiful! thank you! Fang, I like your gift very much. But wouldn''t this be too expensive? " This time Fang Lang bought a lot of very classic watches in Switzerland, and of course there are many women''s watches. These are gifts that Fang Lang is going to give to others. Seeing that Mrs. Clark really wanted this watch, Fang Lang was also very happy, smiled reservedly and said: "Ma''am, you are too kind. Compared to your help to me, this little gift of mine can only be regarded as a disrespect. " "Don''t say that, I heard what my brother said. Since you purchased the equipment for the production of pesticides and fertilizers from him last time, your orders have not stopped in the past few months. Now the factory''s orders have been scheduled until next year. It''s not like I''m helping you. My brother also said that he must thank you in person next time! " "Haha. You are too polite, this is all business, their family just happens to have it, and we just need it. Isn''t this a hit and miss? " General Clark on the side saw the two flattering each other, as if they were going to chat endlessly, and standing on the side seemed redundant, which made him very dissatisfied. Cleared his throat and said: "Cough, cough, I said, you two can do it! Stinky boy, tell the truth! What the **** is going on here today? If you dont tell me, Ill really go fishing! " Hearing what General Clark said, Mrs. Clark said with a dissatisfied face: "What are you talking about, old man! I would like to thank you for taking care of my brother''s family business, what''s bothering you! It''s weird here. " Fang Lang was not angry after hearing General Clark''s words, but smiled and said: "It''s okay, Auntie, if Uncle wants to go fishing, go fishing first! I haven''t been here for a long time, I don''t know where Sophia is! I still have a gift for him! " General Clark didn''t expect that Fang Lang would not be afraid of his own threat, but let himself go fishing for his own fish indifferently, and hesitated for a while. Could it be that I misunderstood this little fox today? It doesn''t make sense! This is the master who does not go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. Mrs. Clark didn''t care so much, she smiled at the other party and said: "Sophia is still at work! I won''t be back until after get off work. I want to call her. Is it okay to ask her to come home and have dinner with her tonight? " Of course Fang Lang would not refuse Mrs. Clark''s invitation, and he readily accepted it regardless of General Clark''s ugly face around him. (end of this chapter) Chapter 220: tease Chapter 220 Teasing General Clark saw that his wife had invited Fang Lang to dinner at home, and knew that there was definitely no way for Fang Lang to leave today. He didn''t believe that Fang Lang was really just coming to thank his wife for her help. After seeing his wife call Sophia, he sat directly beside Fang Lang and said: "I said brat, don''t think I don''t know what you want to do!" Hearing General Clark''s words, Fang Lang smiled in his heart, kept his face calm, and pretended to be puzzled and said: "Oh! Uncle thinks what else can I do besides visiting you and aunt!" As a rear admiral, General Clark is not a reckless man, and his brain is very easy to use. Seeing that Fang Lang obviously didn''t want to take the initiative to speak, he simply pretended not to know anything, and waited to see if Fang Lang could hold it back. "Okay! I believe you are here to visit me and my wife." Then Fang Lang was short at General Clark''s house and the Clark couple''s parents, rambling about some parents'' short stories, and Fang Lang seemed to really just come to visit the couple. Until Sophia came home from get off work in the afternoon and saw the gift Fang Lang gave him. "ah!" There was a scream, which almost burst Fang Lang''s eardrum. "Fang, is this really for me?" "Of course, I picked this one for you from Switzerland. Do you like it?" The watch Fang Lang gave to Sofia is obviously more fashionable, and people of different ages wear watches of different styles. Sofia''s slightly pink watch is obviously very suitable for her aesthetics. There was another scream, and Sophia hugged Fang Lang without any image, and slapped him in the face. General Clark, who was watching, was furious, and shouted loudly: "Sophia, what are you going to do?" It''s a pity that Sophia ignored General Clark''s anger, hugged Fang Lang''s arm and said: "Fang, I really like this gift, can you bring it for me?" After speaking, he stretched out his hand in front of Fang Lang. Fang Lang never refuses a girl''s request, he picked up his watch and said: "Of course, it''s my pleasure." The performance of the two made General Clark''s seven orifices rise in smoke, grabbed the watch from Fang Lang''s hand, and stuffed it into Sophia''s hand. Grabbed Fang Lang''s hand and said: "You bastard, come with me." Fang Lang had an innocent expression on his face, and was staggered by Clark and almost fell down. Sofia looked at her father angrily and said: "Daddy, what are you doing?" General Clark turned to Sophia with a smile on his face and said: "It''s okay, I remembered that there are still some things that I haven''t told Fang Lang, we have to talk alone for a while, you go to help your mother prepare dinner first." After speaking, he pulled Fang Lang and walked directly to the study, and after closing the door with a "bang", he said to Fang Lang: "Stinky boy, I warn you, don''t think about my daughter." Seeing General Clark''s anxious expression, Fang Lang smiled and looked at the furnishings in the study, found a chair and asked General Clark if he could sit on it? General Clark glared at Fang Lang, and sat down on the chair behind the desk. Seeing the other party sit down, Fang Lang sat opposite him politely, saw a large copper ashtray on the desk, and knew that smoking was allowed in the old guy''s study. Pulled out the cigar that he carried with him, handed one to General Clark and said: "Uncle, I don''t quite understand. Do you have any prejudice against me? John and I are brothers, and Sophia is John''s sister. I don''t know who is older, Sophia or me. However, I also treat him as my younger sister, why do you think I am plotting something wrong! " Clark stared at Fang Lang''s expression, trying to see the truth of Fang Lang''s words from Fang Lang''s face. Seeing that Fang Lang really didn''t have any abnormal expression, he relaxed a little. But what Fang Lang said next made General Clark angry again. "However, you must understand that I am a young man. Sophia is a beautiful angel. What I can assure you is that I will never take the initiative to pursue Sophia. However, if Sophia attacks me, I don''t think I can refuse. " "You bastard, I know that you came to the United States this time for your procurement of aircraft carriers, but haven''t you already established a relationship? According to me, General Nimitz has agreed to sell the aircraft carrier to you, what else do you want to do? " Clark didn''t want Fang Lang to stay in his home any longer. He felt that he should get rid of the other party as soon as possible, so in the end, he couldn''t resist asking Fang Lang''s purpose. It''s a pity that Fang Lang didn''t want to follow his rhythm, so he smiled and said: "You said what General Nimitz has agreed to, so why would I come to you, a retired rear admiral?" Fang Lang emphasized the word "retirement". Clark felt that it was particularly harsh to his ears, and he felt a little lost unconsciously. Yup! I have already retired, what else is there to insist on! Seeing Fang Lang''s indifferent attitude, I couldn''t help thinking, this kid really didn''t just drop by the house to visit! It would be embarrassing if this were the case. Cleared his throat, General Clark forced himself to calm down and said: "Better as you say!" Originally, after Fang Lang said the word retirement, he was still worried that the old guy in front of him would not be able to accept the blow and lose his temper. As a result, although it looks a bit disappointed, the overall situation should be regarded as open. Originally, Fang Lang planned to get in touch with General Nimitz in advance through General Clark''s relationship, but the old guy in front of him didn''t know why, and was always guarding against him, feeling a bit repulsive. Fang Lang didn''t plan to get to know Nimitz through him, so he deliberately showed an appearance of wanting nothing. Fang Lang, the father of this kind of brother, didn''t want to use money to win him over to serve him. But seeing the disappointment shown by the other party when he heard him say that he retired. He couldn''t help being moved, and deliberately teased: "What? From the look of you, it seems that you are still somewhat reluctant to retire!" General Clark''s retirement was a choice he had to make. If he had a choice, he would of course want to continue commanding the aircraft carrier battle group! As a veteran, how many people are really willing to leave their high and powerful positions easily? Seeing that Fang Lang''s tone was obviously deliberately teasing, General Clark surprisingly didn''t refute. Just gave Fang Lang a hard look, and began to trim the cigar in his hand. It looks like you don''t have the same knowledge as you. Fang Lang felt that the old man was a little cute at this time, so he smiled and said: "Well! It seems that I am really reluctant! Or, for John''s sake, I''ll hire you as a consultant to my aircraft carrier fleet. How about continuing to use some spare heat? " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, General Clark, who was a little indifferent to Fang Lang, looked at Fang Lang and said: "Isn''t that the purpose of your coming here today!" Seeing General Clark with a look of uneasy expression on his face, Fang Lang also said helplessly: "Oh! You just think I said something wrong! Good intentions are not rewarded, if I hadnt just seen that you were a little bit disappointed because you mentioned retirement. See if I will say this. This is not my personal business. The Brazilian Navy Department will naturally discuss related matters with your US Navy Department. Although I have the right to speak about these matters, they are not decided by me alone. You just pretend I didn''t say anything. " Although Fang Lang looked like he had nothing to do with me, General Clark''s heart was moved. Although he has retired, he still has a lot of connections in the US Department of the Navy. Otherwise, it is impossible for him to know that Brazil is seeking to purchase an aircraft carrier from the Ministry of the Navy. As early as on the Pacific battlefield, General Clark had already discovered Fang Lang''s interest in aircraft carriers. At that time, although the relationship between the United States and Brazil was good, it was out of consideration for the American interests of the United States, and the relationship between the Brazilian government and the United States at that time did not reach the current level. So, at that time, it was impossible for General Clark to teach Fang Lang the relevant knowledge privately. However, today is different from the past. Todays Brazilian government is truly pro-American faction in power, and the U.S. government must show strong support for the pro-American faction government. At the same time, with the end of the war, the U.S. military needs to be abolished on a large scale, and military expenditures have also been greatly reduced. All kinds of equipment in the U.S. military also need to be withdrawn from active service. Considering these two aspects, the U.S. Congress also agreed to sell the aircraft carrier to the Brazilian Navy. Since the aircraft carrier has agreed to be sold, the Brazilian Navy must be trained. At this time, if Fang Lang can persuade the Brazilian Navy Department to agree to let himself enter the Brazilian aircraft carrier fleet as a consultant for guidance. Then can''t I re-experience commanding a naval fleet? As for whether the fleet belongs to the US Navy, what does it matter? Thinking of this, General Clark could no longer control his desire to return to the aircraft carrier fleet. "That Fang, are you serious about what you just said?" Fang Lang heard General Clark''s twisted tone, how could he not understand his thoughts, and said without thinking: "Idea? What idea? I have no idea!" This made General Clark so angry that he kept cursing in his heart that this **** is really not a good thing. Now he is fine, but he actually caught him with a sore foot. Cleared his throat, General Clark said calmly: "Fang, let''s stop making rounds, tell us your purpose! If I can help, I will never refuse." This meaning has been expressed very clearly, and everyone can openly discuss conditions. If you have any request, just say it and listen to it. If you can do it, you will never refuse it. Otherwise, there is nothing you can do. Unfortunately, at this time Fang Lang has already figured it out. To get to know General Nimitz through the retired rear admiral in front of him, it is better to go directly to Vice Admiral Chambers of the US Navy who he met through Commodore Jackson in Italy. Sometimes a purely interest relationship or a purely political relationship is easier to handle than this purely emotional relationship, and it is also simpler. So, Fang Lang simply and General Clark made it clear: "Uncle, if it''s about work, I think I should go to General Chambers or Brigadier General Jackson, at least they haven''t retired yet, have they? Or simply let the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the Ministry of the Navy directly contact the relevant departments of the US government through normal working procedures. After all, I am just a small navy captain. The Brazilian Navy is not my personal army, I have no reason to use my personal connections for the benefit of the Brazilian Navy, isn''t it? " (end of this chapter) Chapter 221: conditioning Chapter 221 Conditioning Fang Lang''s remarks can be regarded as a counterattack to General Clark''s wariness against himself. After all, as John''s father, Fang Lang''s achievements are indeed inseparable from his relationship with John. But to say how much direct help General Clark really took the initiative to provide Fang Lang, this is really not. As for why General Clark behaved like this, Fang Lang also had some guesses in his heart. This may have a lot to do with his skin color, even if he got the rank of major general. However, Fang Lang is sure that his life in the US army is absolutely not as free as Brigadier General Jackson. Even, Fang Lang could feel a kind of unconfidence as a red neck, or inferiority complex from him. No matter what you do, your hands are tied, and you are not free and easy at all. Finally, he voluntarily retired in exchange for his son''s future. After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Clark unconsciously lowered his eyes. As a person who has lived for decades, he knew very well that what Fang Lang said made sense. It turned out that Fang Lang had never pierced the window paper with him, which made him very wary of little foxes like Fang Lang. Worried that the other party will make excessive demands, making it difficult for myself. But Fang Lang''s words just now can be regarded as directly uncovering General Clark''s scars. If you want to talk about the people Fang Lang met in the US Navy, or the relationship he has, he is definitely not the highest position. What''s more, I''m still just a retired rear admiral, and I don''t have any real power at all. This can be regarded as stripping himself naked and uncovering his fig leaf. But he couldn''t feel any dissatisfaction, because others have always said that they just came to visit his family. It is that I always feel good about myself, and feel that the other party has other plans. It was the current situation that caused the situation. Suddenly, the atmosphere in the room became a little awkward. Seeing the face of General Clark on the opposite side constantly changing because of what he said, Fang Lang also felt that his words were a little heavy. How to say that the other party is also John''s father. After thinking about it, Fang Lang took the initiative to say: "Uncle, actually, I think you are really tired from living like this. I understand your scruples, we are all yellow, and I understand the pressure and even discrimination we have to face from all sides in a white-dominated society. However, I don''t think this is the reason we live carefully. I never thought I was inferior to white people. I know that you are worried that I will ask you too much to make things difficult for you. However, I think you are underestimating me by doing this. My relationship with John and your family is only because John and I are life and death brothers. I''ve gotten so much help from your family. I am not a greedy person, and I have never thought about continuing to gain any benefits from you. Since you have retired, I think you should live a free and easy life. " Clark was taught a lesson by a junior today, but he couldn''t refute it. Because the other party really analyzed him very thoroughly, and every word the other party said was very reasonable. Thinking about my military career for so many years, I have indeed been very cautious, walking on thin ice, for fear of accidentally doing something wrong. Being taken at the opportunity to kick yourself out of your favorite army. However, even if I live a cautious life, I am still subject to everywhere in the army. I have more credit than others, but I am not promoted as fast as others. Ability is better than others, but also inferior to others. What is the reason for this? Is it really just because of my skin color? Could it be related to my forbearing and cautious style of doing things? Especially in a powerful unit like the army, strength, bravery, and determination are the qualities that soldiers really need to possess! Fang Lang''s words made General Clark fall into deep self-doubt and self-reflection, and the study became extremely quiet for a while. Only the occasional movement of Fang Lang smoking. It wasn''t until there was a knock on the door that the weird atmosphere was broken. Fang Lang noticed that Clark seemed to have changed a little bit, but he couldn''t see where the change was. Clark cleared his throat and said: "Come in!" It was Mrs. Clark who knocked on the door. Hearing Clark''s voice, she pushed open the door of the study. Seeing the smoke in the room, she frowned dissatisfiedly and said: "Dinner is ready, let''s go down to eat." After speaking, he looked at Fang Lang''s half-smoked cigar, and the trimmed and unlit cigar in Clark''s hand, and knew that Fang Lang was smoking. Walking to the bed and opening the window for ventilation, he said to Fang Lang: "Fang, you are still young, you should smoke less, it is not good for your health." Fang Lang nodded awkwardly, and pressed the cigar out in the ashtray. "Okay, Auntie. Wasn''t my uncle dragged me to the study to give me a lesson, the pressure was too great, I couldn''t hold back for a while! " After hearing what Fang Lang said, Mrs. Clark believed it to be true, and stared at Clark and said: "You old bastard, Fang is our guest, not your subordinate, what do you want to do?" Clark, who has been in self-doubt and self-reflection, was finally brought back to reality by Mrs. Clark''s knock on the door. As a result, he was hit on the head by a huge black pot again, and his whole body was not well. Looking at Fang Lang dumbfounded, the mentality of not knowing how to communicate with Fang Lang broke instantly after being taught by Fang Lang''s words. directly went into a rage and said: "Well, you brat, how dare you frame me." About to throw a book on the table at Fang Lang. Fang Lang hurriedly hid behind Mrs. Clark, yelling: "Auntie, help!" Ms. Clark turned and glared at Clark who was about to hit Fang Lang. Seeing Mrs. Clark''s eyes, General Clark put down the book in his hand resentfully, with an embarrassed yet polite smile on his face. If only General Clark knew what a dog was! He must have scolded Fang Lang as a real dog. But it''s strange to say that the feeling of embarrassment facing Fang Lang just now disappeared completely after this. Seeing that General Clark, who followed his wife out the door, did not forget to raise his eyebrows and smiled at him, unconsciously put a smile on the corner of his mouth. I knew in my heart that this could be considered as Fang Lang found a step down for himself. General Clark, who came to the table again, said to Fang Lang as if he had changed into a different person: "Boy, I tell you. If you want to hire a professional team from the United States to train you to use the aircraft carrier. You must let me be the team leader! " Hearing General Clark''s unceremonious words, Fang Lang knew that the other party must have figured out what he said to him, otherwise, based on his understanding of General Clark, it would be impossible for him to say such free and easy words. Fang Lang raised his eyebrows calmly and said: "Why?" General Clark said confidently: "I can let you get the aircraft carrier in the best condition!" As soon as these words came out, not only Fang Lang looked up at Clark, but even Mrs. Clark and Sophia put down the tableware in their hands, and looked at General Clark with surprise on their faces. For a while, they felt that the person in front of them was a little strange. Seeing everyone looking at him, Clark coughed twice and said: "What are you looking at me for?" Sophia couldn''t help but said: "Are you my father?" When General Clark heard this, he gave Sophia a blank look and said: "Does this still need to be said? You can ask your mother!" Unexpectedly, Mrs. Clark on the side also looked General Clark up and down, and said with some uncertainty: "I''m not sure now, is this still the Joseph J. Clark I know?" Clark knew what the two were talking about, and he had never used such confident and affirmative words to express his thoughts before. Obviously, this is the change brought about after talking with Fang Lang today. Seeing the behavior of his wife and daughter, General Clark smiled helplessly from the two of them, turned his head to look at Fang Lang, and waited for his reply. Seeing him looking at him, Fang Lang thought for a while and said: "The aircraft carrier in the best condition, can the U.S. Navy not keep it for itself, but sell it to us? How is it possible?" Although, Fang Lang knows that there is a big difference between the aircraft carrier of this era and the aircraft carrier of later generations, and the technical content is far from as advanced as that of later generations. However, in this era, it is indeed the most advanced aircraft carrier. Fang Lang thought that it would be great if the Americans agreed to sell one, but he never dared to think that he would have the opportunity to get the best one in active service. This is purely looking for fart. Seeing that Fang Lang didn''t believe it, General Clark smiled and said: "You are not a U.S. soldier, you don''t understand what is the biggest thing going on at the top of the U.S. military?" This topic is obviously not accessible to Fang Lang, he said uncertainly: "Is it confidential?" General Clark was taken aback, and looked at Fang Lang and smiled with satisfaction. It seems that this guy who is somewhat greedy in his eyes is not a person who has no bottom line. "Don''t worry! This matter is known to everyone in the high-level military and political circles of the United States. It is not a secret." Then there is nothing to be afraid of. What Fang Lang likes to hear most are other people''s secrets. Although General Clark said that it is not a secret, some things are just gossip for people of a certain level, but for most people, they are secrets that will never have the opportunity to come into contact with. "Oh! I really don''t understand this. I don''t know if it''s convenient for you to talk about it." Now that General Clark has opened his mouth on this topic, of course he is going to tell Fang Lang about it. Ms. Clark and Sophia were even more surprised, and looked at Mr. Clark in disbelief, because in their minds, General Clark was a person who never talked about business at home. I never talked about some news about the army at home, but today I actually talked about the secrets of the top US Navy with Fang Lang, a member of the Brazilian Navy, in front of the two of them. The two of them didn''t know what the situation was, and they were still a little worried about whether they would be arrested if they said these things. General Clark noticed the expressions of the two, smiled and said to them: "Don''t worry! This kind of thing is no secret." Then he said to Fang Lang: "Do you know the conflict between the U.S. Navy and Army?" what! Is it such a big topic? Fang Lang had never heard of this topic, and his curiosity was fully mobilized. shook his head and said: "I have heard that the conflict between the Japanese navy and army is very deep, and it has reached the point where it will hinder you. However, in the United States, I have never heard of it. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 222: contradiction Chapter 222 Contradiction General Clark heard Fang Lang''s answer, glanced at Fang Lang with a little surprise, and then thought that the other party was also a person who had participated in the Pacific naval battle. It is not surprising to know this situation. Nodded to Fang Lang, picked up the wine glass to signal for a light touch with Fang Lang, then took a shallow sip and said: "The situation in the United States is not as serious as that in Japan. However, with the end of the war, President Truman mentioned a topic when summarizing the experience and lessons of World War II in an article entitled "Our Armed Forces Must Be Unified". That is to unify the Army and Navy so that all our defensive and offensive forces are under one agency and one authoritative and accountable command. It is necessary to establish a unified military organization to effectively integrate the two major military departments of the sea and land. " As soon as Fang Lang heard this, Fang Lang understood what it meant, and said with a smile: "This is what it means to establish the U.S. Department of Defense!" General Clark was taken aback by Fang Lang''s words, looked at Fang Lang in surprise and said: "You know about this?" Fang Lang shook his head quickly. He couldn''t tell the other party that he knew from later generations that the United States had a Secretary of Defense, but now he doesn''t! "Aren''t the sea, land and air forces of many countries all under the leadership of the Ministry of National Defense?" From this point of view, in fact, my hometown is still ahead of Lao Mei, although these real powers are now concentrated in Lao Jiang''s head. However, in terms of system, it is actually more advanced than the old United States. It has to be said that it is an ancient civilization with history. After listening to Fang Lang''s words, General Clark also understood that what he was talking about was the actual situation, so he didn''t think much about it. continued: After the war ended, specifically in October 1945, the Ministry of War took the lead in submitting a bill to the Congress with the main content of establishing a unified military organization. However, this bill focuses mainly on the ownership of the Marine Corps and Naval Aviation. Their purpose is to incorporate the Marine Corps into their army and form an army amphibious force. In order to achieve this goal, they took the initiative to separate the land-based aviation that originally belonged to the army to form an air force. The Air Force is demanding that the Naval Aviation be assigned to the Air Force. This is equivalent to the fact that the Army wants to divide up the "inheritance" of the Navy with the little brother who just separated from his family. So, now there is a very deadlock between the Ministry of the Navy and the Ministry of War. " Fang Lang obviously didn''t expect that the U.S. Department of the Army would be so ruthless. If the Army''s thinking continues, the U.S. Navy will be abolished. It''s a pity that Fang Lang knows the history of later generations, and the U.S. Navy is still alive and well, and it is extremely nourishing. The army''s plan was obviously unsuccessful! Think about your own First Fleet, dont you also plan to build a military force that has always been equipped with all three armed forces? But if the U.S. Army is really successful, will Brazil also learn from the Americans? If this happens, the navy will become a transport team. Out of self-interest considerations, Fang Lang didn''t want this to happen. blurted out: "Why is the Ministry of the Army!" General Clark actually heard the meaning of fighting against the enemy from this sentence, and couldn''t help but look at Fang Lang with satisfaction. Sure enough, all the navies of the world have the same position. But the situation of the U.S. Navy is not good now, so I couldn''t help sighing: "Because in this war, it is the army and the army aviation that ultimately determine the victory! Therefore, it is logical that the Army headed by Marshall and Eisenhower has the "right to speak" in the new round of national defense institutional reforms. " The so-called final decision to win is the army and the army''s aviation. According to Fang Lang''s understanding, it is the US Army that broke into Germany. It was the atomic bombs dropped by the U.S. Army Air Forces that prompted Japan to surrender. Therefore, for a long time after the end of World War II, the life of the U.S. Navy was very difficult. The Army and Air Force generally believed that the Navy had no ability to decide the outcome of the war. "I see what you mean, so, the U.S. Navy is in a very bad place right now. The Army and the soon-to-be-established Air Force are trying to weaken the power of the US Navy. This is also the reason why our Brazilian Navy can get the aircraft carrier sold by the United States, right! " General Clark looked at Fang Lang and shrugged helplessly, Fang Lang knew he was right. "Then why do you say that you can get us the best aircraft carrier in the US Navy? I was born in the Navy! Aren''t you afraid that your behavior of adding insult to injury will make you spurned by your colleagues? " General Clark said with an indifferent expression: "Didn''t you say that I have retired? If you want to work in your fleet, you have to show my worth, right? " Fang Lang carefully looked at Clark''s expression suspiciously, he would never believe that this old guy would really have such a big change. As a general who has participated in wars, Fang Lang believes that General Clara must be patriotic. Since he loves his country, it is impossible to harm the interests of his own country. Fang Lang is very clear about this. Fang Lang believes that Americans regard serving as a soldier as a job. But if it is said that serving as a soldier is simply a job, Fang Lang doesn''t believe it. Because soldiers without a sense of honor have no combat effectiveness at all, no matter how loose the military discipline of the US military is, the education of soldiers'' sense of honor will never be missing. More importantly, based on Fang Lang''s understanding of General Clark, the other party is definitely not an unpatriotic general, or a general who has no sense of military honor. "I understand, you want to retreat to advance, through this matter, let the US Navy show weakness to the Army and Air Force, right? Want to put yourself in a weak position and gain sympathy, right? " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, General Clark said expressionlessly: "You think too much." Fang Lang knew that the other party must have his own plans, but if the other party could really do what he said, Fang Lang wouldn''t care what his purpose was! As long as you can successfully obtain the aircraft carrier you want, as for obtaining the aircraft carrier in the best condition, that is the icing on the cake. Seeing the other party''s expression, Fang Lang smiled, and didn''t want to continue to entangle too much on this topic, but said curiously: "What makes your Army and Air Force think the Navy is redundant? Doesnt the long coastline of the United States need the protection of the U.S. Navy at all? " To be honest, Fang Lang really can''t understand this kind of brain circuit. If it''s a simple struggle for power and profit, it''s fine, but he can''t understand the reason for the operation of wanting to abolish a unit directly. Do they treat the navy as cavalry? It can only be said that Fang Lang''s thinking cannot be substituted into the thinking of Americans at this time. The victory of the Second World War has given the American army a general perception that Lao Tzu is invincible. Especially as the only country that has mastered nuclear weapons, the U.S. military believes that nuclear weapons will become the "killer weapon" that will determine the outcome of future wars. Strategic nuclear bombing will also become a new mode of operation with decisive significance in the future. Therefore, nuclear weapons and the newly formed Strategic Air Force (SAC) will also become the priority objects of the US military''s strategic deployment and military allocation. That is to say, as long as the United States has a strategic nuclear strike capability, no country will dare to show its teeth to the United States. Under this ideology, the navy becomes dispensable. Especially the Navy also has the Naval Air Force, isnt this trying to compete with my Air Force for jobs? So, the USAF wants to take away the right of the Navy to have aviation. What is even more exaggerated is that in April 1949, after the new Secretary of Defense Louis Johnson took office, the life of the US Navy became more difficult, and the navy''s military expenditure was repeatedly cut. Johnson even points out: There is no reason to keep the Navy and the Marine Corps, because General Bradley told me that amphibious operations are history, we will never conduct amphibious operations again, so there is no need to keep the Marine Corps. Besides that, the Air Force can do everything the Navy can do, so there is no need to keep the Navy. " The bitter days of the U.S. Navy did not really get better until August 1950, when George Marshall became the new Secretary of Defense. The period from 1946 to 1950 was the darkest period in the history of the U.S. Navy. Although, in the end, the U.S. Navy kept the Naval Air Force. However, although the Marine Corps is still under the jurisdiction of the Department of the Navy, it has a place in the Joint Chiefs of Staff, so it has become the fourth largest military service on an equal footing with the land, sea, and air forces. At this time, it is impossible for General Clark, who was in the game, and Fang Lang, an outsider, to know the series of events that happened later. Fang Lang knew that the U.S. Navy was still strong later, but he didn''t know the inside story at this time, so he asked such a question. And General Clark''s answer is also very simple: "Of course it is the atomic bomb. With the atomic bomb in hand, they feel that the role of the navy is negligible." Fang Lang didn''t know how to answer these words for a while, and there was nothing wrong with these words. Lao Mei, who was holding an atomic bomb in her hand, could be so confident. But it is rare that General Clark, today, took the initiative to tell himself so many things that he never knew before. Fang Lang felt that today was a full harvest, and he no longer had any other needs. As for General Clark''s desire to serve as a consultant in his aircraft carrier fleet, Fang Lang certainly would not refuse, after all, this kind of thing is not harmful to him. It happens that I can learn from him the knowledge of commanding an aircraft carrier battle group. Hiring retired naval personnel to your own fleet to guide your own naval construction is better than letting your own naval fleet personnel go to the United States to be brainwashed by the Americans! So Fang Lang no longer rejected General Clark''s idea, smiled and said: "There is nothing wrong with what they said. Since this is the case, as long as you can ensure that I can really get the best Essex-class aircraft carrier in the US Navy, I can promise to hire you to my fleet as a consultant. " General Clark smiled and said: "It seems that you have a lot of appetite! You have even set your sights on the Essex class! This is the most advanced main aircraft carrier of the U.S. Navy." "What? Can''t figure it out?" Fang Lang said don''t make me look down on you. General Clark smiled and said: "Okay, you don''t have to provoke me, since I offered to serve as your aircraft carrier fleet consultant, I will do my best to help you achieve your expectations." Obviously, Fang Lang didn''t think it was too difficult to obtain the latest model of the Essex-class aircraft carrier currently in service in the United States. Fang Lang thought for a while and said: I will warn you though, right now most of us in the Brazilian Navy want to get US carriers. However, some people want to find a way from the UK. After all, our original battleships and cruisers were ordered from the UK. In everyone''s mind, the UK is still the original naval power. So, the price should not be too outrageous, understand? " (end of this chapter) Chapter 223: consultant Chapter 223 Advisor Although General Clark has retired from the U.S. Navy, as a Rear Admiral of the U.S. Navy, he still has a very huge influence within the U.S. Navy, at least not comparable to Fang Lang. The next day, at noon, Fang Lang received a call from Jefferson, the manager of the Shata Company, telling Fang Lang that he no longer had to meet with the Minister of the Navy. This aircraft carrier transaction will directly become a purely commercial act, and even the Brazilian Navy Department will not need to come forward. The only requirement is that the Brazilian Navy must recruit a naval advisory group of about 300 people from among the retired naval officers of the United States to guide the Brazilian Navy to become familiar with the use of aircraft carriers. The duration of this employment contract cannot be less than three years. This kind of requirement should not be too loose for Brazil. This shocked Manager Jefferson, and kept asking around, how Fang Lang persuaded General Nimitz of the US Navy. This is simply beyond Jefferson''s cognition. Of course Fang Lang would not tell Manager Jefferson what kind of relationship he was looking for. As a boss, you always have to make sure you have cards that the other party doesnt know, so that the other party can maintain respect for you. Maybe because of this incident, this American retired military officer will feel awe of Fang Lang in his heart. After all, the unknown is often awe-inspiring. Since the intervention of General Clark made things so simple, Fang Lang was of course happy and relaxed. Directly sent a telegram to inform Rear Admiral Friedrich Crook, Chief of Staff of the Brazilian Navy General Staff, who was preparing to depart from Brazil for negotiations in the United States, that the matter had been settled. Instead of going through the high-level negotiations of the Navy, it has directly become a purely commercial behavior. And explained the request of the United States to Major General Crook. This made General Crook, who was about to pay something, bewildered, wondering when the Americans became so kind. There is quite a dreamlike sense of unreality. Finally, he sent a telegram back and spoke highly of Fang Lang''s ability, emphasizing again and again that the Brazilian Navy can afford enough public relations expenses. Fang Lang certainly would not refuse such a request. However, he did not give these public relations fees to others, and of course he would not put a small public relations fee into his own pocket. Boss Fang''s eyelids are not so shallow. Instead, they are all used to purchase additional F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter jets and TBF "Avenger bombers" from Shata Corporation. In this way, no one will be left with the excuse, after all, it is easy to be used as a handle for private use of public funds. As for the salary and benefits of the US military advisory group, the Brazilian Navy must be responsible for it! Whether it is public or private, Fang Lang is very clear about these matters. Since the matter of the aircraft carrier has been answered accurately. The first step for Fang Lang to do is to set up an organizational structure for the aircraft carrier. That afternoon, Fang Lang joined General Clark again and began to form the so-called US military advisory group. "You mean, this so-called US military advisory group is actually the original team of officers on the USS Tarawa aircraft carrier?" General Clark took it for granted: "Otherwise? Now that the Tarawa is going to be sold to your Brazilian Navy, the active officers must retire. Is there anyone who knows this aircraft carrier better than these original officers? " Fang Lang thought about it for a while and felt that it didn''t matter. After all, these people are just consultants. They can ask if they can, and if they don''t, who cares about you! As long as the aircraft carrier is under their absolute control, these people can sincerely teach the Brazilian Navy what they have learned. "Yes, as long as they will sincerely teach my people the knowledge they have acquired, I have no problem." "Don''t worry about this, since this is the content of the transaction agreed by the Ministry of the Navy. Those of us will definitely teach you within three years to fully master the use of aircraft carriers and related techniques and tactics of aircraft carriers. " General Clark said very simply. "OK, then when will your personnel be in place, I need to organize personnel to my fleet to screen qualified aircraft carrier crew members. Also, you have to make sure that this Tarawa is a fully American aircraft carrier. If there is any reduction in the product delivered to me, I will refuse to pay. " Fang Lang is very aware of the virtues of the Yankees of later generations. He keeps the good things for himself, and only sells the bad ones. Forget it, second-hand equipment is often dismantled, and it is not the same thing as the original. However, Clark was taken aback by what he said? "What does the allocation reduction mean?" Obviously, the current Yankees havent learned the tricks behind. During the war, all the allies advance and retreat together, authorize each other, and everything is for the victory of the war. Fang Lang shook his head quickly and said: "Nothing, as long as you make sure there isn''t any teardown going on with the carrier. I dont know where this aircraft carrier is now, does it say where to receive it? " "I said brat, aren''t you entering the role too quickly, I haven''t signed a contract with you yet! I''m not your advisor yet, so don''t ask me everything, okay? The aircraft carrier transaction is a matter for your Brazilian Navy and Shata Company. When and where the delivery will be made, you should communicate with them about these matters. instead of asking me. " General Clark''s tone revealed some dissatisfaction. Obviously, he would be a little uncomfortable working under Fang Lang in the future. Fang Lang smiled and said: "As the major shareholder of the Shata Company, I believe that the Shata Company would not dare to make any changes to my aircraft carrier. What I''m more worried about is whether your Admiralty will act unwillingly. " Fang Lang''s words made General Clark unable to react for a long time. He opened and closed his mouth again and again, and said as if he had seen a ghost: "You just said that you are the major shareholder of Shata Company? how can that be? Didn''t it mean that this company is a company with huge energy, and the shareholders behind it are some big names in the military? How could you, a Brazilian navy captain, be the major shareholder of this company. " Of course, the fewer people who know about this kind of thing, the better. Seeing Clark''s shocked expression, Fang Lang knew that he had made a slip of the tongue, and this kind of thing shouldn''t be said. However, since the other party already knows, if I choose to shut up now, it will obviously make the other party absolutely distrust him. He hesitated for a while. General Clark saw Fang Lang''s expression, how could he not understand. What this guy said may really be true, but if such a big gossip is not clear, Clark feels that he will definitely not be able to sleep. So, I was unwilling to give up, and waited for Fang Lang''s answer with a curious face. Fang Lang thought over and over again, thinking that the penicillin equipment that Mrs. Clark got for herself was also purchased through Global Trade. It is estimated that even if he doesn''t tell him, the old guy can find out when he goes back. Finally, he simply confessed: "Global Trading Company, the largest shareholder of Shata Company, is even my company registered in the United States. The reason why the Shata Company was established was to facilitate the acquisition of an arms order from a tank division of our Brazilian Army. So, I''m one of the founders of this company. But later, big shots from all walks of life got involved. So, your message is not wrong! They pay for the relationship, and my global trade pays for it. " General Clark never thought that the savior of his son in front of him would be a hidden big capitalist. You must know that there are many forces behind this Shata company that he can''t afford to mess with. Fortunately, I always thought that the other party wanted to gain benefits from the US military through my relationship. It turned out that the clown turned out to be himself, and others are not without roots in the US military. As for the majority shareholder of this company, it is not an American. This kind of thing is not something Clark needs to care about. The big shots don''t have any opinions, so why should he make irresponsible remarks. You must know that the United States is a capitalist country, capital is king, and whoever has money has power. Clark could only cough a few times in the end: "I see, I''ll pretend I haven''t heard of this matter, and you shouldn''t tell others about it." Seeing General Clark being so knowledgeable and interesting, Fang Lang was relieved. What he doesn''t know is that General Clark at this time is not just as simple as being knowledgeable. At this time, in the eyes of General Clark, Fang Lang was no longer simply his son''s savior, his junior. But a capitalist with a strong background, just like his wife''s natal family. He knew very well that if it weren''t for his wife''s family relationship, it would be impossible for him to break through the boundaries of his skin color and become the powerful rear admiral of the United States with his own efforts. Fang Lang changed the subject: "Okay, this topic is over. Regarding the establishment of the advisory group, we must hurry up. I don''t want the ship to be done. We won''t be able to drive it away by then. " Clark is not shirking with Fang Lang now, but said in every way: "Don''t worry, the candidates have already been formed in my mind, and they are all good players who have experienced actual combat. The specific arrival time may take a week. I assure you that after a week, our advisory group can start to cooperate with your work. " General Clark''s silent attitude change, Fang Lang felt it very clearly, which made him feel relieved. After all, this old guys Johns father, he cant achieve what he is today without the help of him and his family. If the other party really keeps holding the airs of an elder in front of him, it will indeed make Fang Lang very difficult to do, and it will not be conducive to the development of future work. Finally, it may also cause the relationship between himself and John to be affected. But now it seems that I accidentally revealed that the relationship between myself and the Shata Company has such an unexpected harvest. Fang Lang didn''t expect this. "Well, I also just take advantage of this time to deal with some business matters. The matter of the advisory group will be fully entrusted to uncle, you can promise to all the members of the advisory group on my behalf, All members of the advisory group will receive the same treatment as they were in the US military. At the same time, according to the specific work situation that the consultant is in charge of, and the corresponding position of the Brazilian Navy personnel he is responsible for, the mastery of the knowledge of the corresponding job position will be scored. I will distribute bonuses according to the specific score, the higher the score, the higher the bonus. As for the specific bonus amount, I can only say that it must be higher than their salary. " General Clark was shown off by Fang Lang''s operation of distributing bonuses based on performance KPI assessments. Blinked involuntarily, then swallowed and said: "Okay, okay!" (end of this chapter) Chapter 224: iron curtain Chapter 224 Iron Curtain United States New York Universal Group Office. "Boss, you finally remembered that there is another company in New York, right?" Miss Ophelia Berg complained to Fang Lang for a while. Fang Lang is quite tolerant of himself, a beautiful assistant who resembles Nicole Kidman, maybe this is the privilege of a beauty! Fang Lang shook his head with a smile, patted the sofa beside him and motioned for him to sit down, and said: "Okay, didn''t I just take you to Europe with me? Is work more important than play! What happened to the Richfield Petroleum Exploration takeover? " Ophelia Berg saw the boss'' signal, hesitated for a while, and chose to sit next to the boss obediently. Taking advantage of the situation, he took out a copy from the thick stack of documents in his hand and handed it to Fang Lang, and said with a speechless expression: "Boss, don''t you even read the reports I sent? The acquisition of Richfield Petroleum Exploration Company has long been over. However, the company''s situation is not good now. The original general manager, Mr. Rayer, has been staying in New York and wants to meet with you. " Fang Lang took the document handed over by Miss Ophelia Berger, and flipped through it casually, as if he didn''t notice Miss Ophelia Berger''s hesitant expression. "Oh! Is there any information about this Mr. Reyer? You said that the current situation of this company is not good. What is wrong specifically?" While the young boss was flipping through the documents, the sunlight outside the window shone on the boss''s face and documents, as if the whole person began to shine, and Miss Ophelia Begg was a little absent-minded for a moment. The more familiar she is with Universal Group''s business, the more Miss Ophelia Berg understands how outstanding the man in front of her is. Think about how long it took Universal Group to grow from scratch, and how big it has grown. No wonder the Morgan family in the United States wants to make friends with the boss. "Boss, the information of this Mr. Reyer is in the data in your hand. As far as I know, this Mr. Reyer is an employee who started a business with the old Mr. Richfield. He has a high prestige in the company, and since Mr. Richfield passed away, the company has been relying on him to maintain it. I heard that Mr. Morgan once sent him an invitation to work at Morgan Stanley. However, it was rejected by Mr. Rayer. As for the company''s biggest problem now, it actually invested all its funds in Prudhoe Bay in Alaska. As a result, until now, nothing has been obtained from this place. In the end, all the liquid funds of this company were filled in, which is why this company will become a high-risk company. I have read the information of this company. In fact, its oil wells in Texas are still producing crude oil continuously. As long as it can repay its debts, it will abandon the exploration project in Alaska. This company still has a chance to grow stronger. " Hearing Miss Ophelia Berg say that Mr. Morgan had recruited Mr. Reyer, Fang Lang''s eyes lit up, and he couldn''t help but took out Mr. Reyer''s information and read it carefully. Unfortunately, according to the data, the general manager Rayer has been working in this company and does not have any particularly outstanding resume. Fang Lang couldn''t tell from this information where Reyer was so good. It seems that it is very necessary to meet the general manager Reyer. Unexpectedly, Miss Ophelia Berger would suggest that he abandon the oil exploration project in Prudhoe Bay. Fang Lang couldn''t help but smiled, and didn''t say much. It should also be seen from this that many people in the outside world should hold the same point of view as Miss Ophelia Begg. Although Fang Lang didn''t know whether this oil field was finally discovered by the Richfield Company, he was very sure that Prudhoe Bay was a large oil field proven by history. I was aiming at his project, how could I give up? "Help me make an appointment with Mr. Morgan, see if he is free tonight, and have a meal together. Since this Reyer is in New York, you should inform him to come to the company to see me at two o''clock this afternoon. " Miss Ophelia Berger nodded to express her understanding when she heard Fang Lang''s order. Get up and put the stack of materials in your hand on the big desk in the office, and say to Fang Lang: "Okay, then I will make an appointment for Mr. Morgan''s assistant and notify Mr. Reyer now. Here are some documents that require your signature from various subsidiaries of Universal Group during the recent period. You take the time to review it. " Fang Lang felt a little headache when he saw Miss Ophelia Berger standing at her desk, pointing at a thick stack of documents. Fortunately, the girl''s graceful figure easily attracted Fang Lang''s attention. It relieved his headache to a certain extent. It seems that later research shows that beautiful women can make people feel happy, which is indeed very reasonable. Looking at Fang Lang, he suddenly remembered that he hadn''t seen his girlfriend Lilith for a long time. No wonder his concentration has been so bad recently. Whenever there is a little girl dangling in front of him, he seems to be a little out of control. This is not acceptable, after thinking about it, he said: "Miss Ophelia Begg, after calling, please go to the Department of Medicine, Radcliffe College, Boston, and pick up my girlfriend for me." "Ah! Shall I help you pick up your girlfriend?" The assistant lady obviously didn''t expect that Fang Lang would suddenly assign such a task. The last time he had dinner with Mr. Morgan, Fang Lang had generously admitted that he had a girlfriend. I just didn''t expect to ask myself to pick up his girlfriend today. I don''t know why Ophelia Berger suddenly felt uncomfortable for no reason. He himself doesn''t know what kind of mentality is causing the trouble, he just wants to see what the other person is like. I dont want to see each other again. This kind of contradictory psychology made her have mixed feelings for a while. Fang Lang saw the other party''s changing face, and thought to himself that women had a lot of inner drama. "Why are you afraid that my girlfriend will bully you! Don''t worry! She has a very good personality. As a sister, you should take care of her a lot, you know? " Hearing Fang Lang say that she is his girlfriend''s sister, doesn''t that mean that she is older? How can women suffer from this, especially Ophelia Berg is very confident about her beauty. Now I hear that I am getting older, and my teeth itch from anger. stomped his feet and said: "Just pick it up, I want to see how beautiful your girlfriend is." Fang Lang saw the other party''s arrogant expression, smiled and said: "Let me tell you, my girlfriend is as beautiful as you!" Miss Ophelia Berg heard this roughly, thinking that Fang Lang was saying that his girlfriend was prettier than her, and she felt a little unhappy in her heart. She is very confident about her appearance. She really doesn''t believe that someone is prettier than her. You can taste it carefully, no! This means that his girlfriend is as beautiful as himself! Isnt this just complimenting yourself for being beautiful? These words are much more pleasing to the ears! I don''t know why, but I still feel a little happy in my heart, and my little face is also a little hot. I also became a little curious about whether the boss''s girlfriend is really beautiful. Cleared his throat, relieved his emotions, and then pretended that nothing happened: "Oh! Okay, what''s your girlfriend''s name! Do you have her number?" Fang Lang didn''t know what the little girl was thinking, and he didn''t care too much. Emotional matters, Fang Lang''s principle has always been to follow the fate, not to force, nor to refuse. According to the standards of later generations, he is a proper scumbag. This is also related to his status as a seaman. In his previous life, he did not have a family. After all, as a seafarer, he spends more than half of the year floating at sea. If he gets married, he has no time to accompany his wife. If she is a widow with him, his wife is definitely not willing. If you don''t stay a widow, you must wear a hat. Colleagues around him conveyed these opinions to him more or less, so that he has never had a stable relationship. Instead, he experienced the customs and customs of various countries around the world, and often had some physical conflicts with girls from all over the world. Let him always maintain a natural attitude towards women, and sometimes even habitually expose the dissolute nature of later generations. Fortunately, my status is different in this life, and I dont need to wander on the boat anymore. So, he still cherishes Miss Lilith very much. Of course, Vivienne is also very good. It''s a pity that Vivienne is studying fashion in France now, and she doesn''t have time to visit her in France. "His name is Lilith Coburn, an Italian girl who is studying medicine at the Faculty of Medicine at Radcliffe College. I will call her, and I will leave his phone number to you later. " After finishing speaking, he found a pen and paper on the desk, and wrote the phone number of Lilith School to Assistant Ophelia Berg. Ophelia Berg glanced at the phone number Fang Lang handed over, didn''t say anything to Fang Lang, and left Fang Lang''s office without looking back. Fang Lang didn''t care about his assistant''s impolite behavior. Transfer the position to the desk and start to deal with the backlog of documents seriously. Through these documents that required Fang Lang''s signature and review, Fang Lang quickly had a clear understanding of the company''s development. Since Global Trade established contact with the military and established the Shata Trading Company, its status in the business world has changed significantly. Actually bid to win purchase orders from many European countries, among which the allied countries such as Britain and France had the largest number of orders. After all, the allied countries, as victorious countries, do not need to be sanctioned. The speed of economic recovery is also very fast, for daily necessities such as grain, oil, cloth, salt and condiments. and infrastructure materials such as steel and cement are in huge demand. For a while, the global trade made a lot of money. To Fang Lang''s surprise, there were orders from the Soviet Union. However, the Soviet Union mainly ordered some mechanical equipment. It seems that the harvest of the Soviet Union in Germany did not fill the stomach! Immediately afterwards, Fang Lang calculated the time, and couldn''t help being taken aback. It was already April 1946. That is to say, the former British Prime Minister Churchill has already delivered the famous "Iron Curtain Speech" in the United States. It seems that the prelude to the Cold War is about to begin! It seems that we must hurry up to complete the orders with the Soviet Union. Otherwise, when the Cold War is starting, if these orders are not completed, it will be dangerous to fall into our hands. His identity in his previous life determined his attitude towards the Soviet Union. Although I can''t say how much I like it, but I definitely won''t be as disgusted as the Yankees. I dont like it much because the opponent split Mongolia and fought again in Sakhalin Island. Speaking of not being disgusted is also very simple. Without the assistance of Big Brother, there is no way for my hometown to have a complete industrial system. Of course, these things are not given by the other party for free, and the hometown also tightens their belts to exchange them. (end of this chapter) Chapter 225: Arrangement in advance Chapter 225 Arrangement in advance In the spacious chairman''s office of Universal Group, after Fang Lang thought twice, he still picked up the phone and called Wan Chongxin. As his first subordinate, Fang Lang still trusts Wan Chongxin very much. The trading company he is in charge of will inevitably have to deal with the Soviet Union in the future. There are some risks in it, and he must warn in advance to avoid losses to the company. Wan Chongxin came very quickly. Since Fang Lang established the Global Group Company, Wan Chongxin has been concentrating on managing global trade. He has rarely intervened in the business of other companies. The purpose of this is mainly to avoid suspicion, but in fact, because Fang Lang seldom works in the Universal Group, he can also participate in decision-making in many matters of the Universal Group. He knew that Fang Lang came to the United States this time. After all, Fang Lang regarded him as a friend, and he did not hide his itinerary from him. It''s just that the other party didn''t know that he would come to Universal Group today. "Boss, why didn''t you tell me when you arrived in New York, so I can pick you up!" Fang Lang stepped forward and took the initiative to give the other party a big hug, and said with a smile: "Now you are the boss of Global Trade, the vice president of the group company, and you have to do everything, so wouldn''t the assistant you found for me be a waste?" Wan Chongxin is very happy about the enthusiasm of the boss. He never thought that he would have the achievements he has now. From a young man who was struggling with food and clothing, he became the general manager of Global Trading Company in just over a year. It was all given by the boss in front of me! "Boss, an assistant is an assistant, I am me, you can''t forget me just because you have an assistant!" Fang Lang heard the hidden meaning from Wan Chongxin''s words, and laughed and scolded: "My dear Wan Chongxin, I knew you must be uneasy and kind in finding me this assistant." Wan Chongxin didn''t mind this, he smiled and said: "Boss, you can''t wrong a good person! At the beginning, I gave you the information of several people, and you chose this girl yourself! " Fang Lang, who was exposed, coughed twice in embarrassment, took a sip of water to cover up, and then changed the subject calmly: "Chongxin! Do you know that in mid-March, former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill gave a speech in Fulton, USA?" "Speech? Churchill?" Wan Chongxin understood that Fang Lang was changing the subject, but he didn''t understand why he suddenly took such a big turn and discussed the political figure show with himself. Seeing Wan Chongxin''s appearance, Fang Lang knew that the other party obviously hadn''t paid attention to this kind of news, and he couldn''t help shaking his head. Conversation with Wan Chong: "Chongxin! Our Universal Group is no longer a small company that smuggled cigarettes on a small scale. I noticed today that many of our businesses are signed with government departments in some European countries. If we really want to do these businesses well in the future, we must do a full study of the country''s political trends. The country we are in now is the United States, which is a capitalist country. Do you know where the best place in the country is? " Fang Lang''s topic is really too lofty. This is a poor boy who speaks out from ordinary people at the bottom, a level of knowledge that was previously out of reach. After thinking about it, Wan Chongxin said uncertainly: "Freedom and democracy?" Unexpectedly, Wan Chongxin would give such an answer, Fang Lang asked a little dumbfounded: "Do you think you feel freedom in America, or do you feel democracy?" Wan Chongxin fell into deep thought, and after thinking for a long time, he said: "It seems that there are none. But isn''t the news all promoting American freedom and democracy?" Looking at the ignorant Wan Chongxin in front of him, Fang Lang shook his head helplessly, and said to Wan Chongxin: Dont believe what others preach, you have to feel and analyze with your heart, so that you can discover the truth of the world. We''re getting far on this topic, I can only tell you. Do not copy what others say at any time. It seems that you don''t know much about America. Then I will reveal a corner of America for you today, so that you have the opportunity to see the real world. As a capitalist country, the United States represents the interests of big capitalists. All politicians are funded by big businessmen to come to power. Whether it is a member of the state government or the president of the United States, they are all spokespersons for the interests of businessmen. You have to know this. With the size of our group company, we can now actively select some politicians to invest. This business has a higher rate of return than investing in a business. " "Ah! Boss, are you going to provide political donations to the president?" "No, not me, I am Brazilian, and it is impossible for American politicians to accept political donations from me. However, as an American, you can participate on behalf of Universal Group. But it is not the time yet, if necessary, I will tell you how to do it. What I want to tell you today is that if we want to grow our business in the United States. We must participate in politics, not just support the election of congressmen or the president. We also need to understand the rules of the game between businessmen and the government. Take the speech I just told you about former British Prime Minister Churchills speech in the United States. Of course, you may not have heard of it. However, I hope you will seriously study his speech when you get home. I will now tell you what I know about this speech. Churchill''s message is to remind everyone to pay attention to the penetration of the Soviet Communist Party into Europe and the United States, which will dig out the foundation of the capitalist camp. Artificially created two opposing camps. " Unfortunately, after Fang Lang talked about it for a long time, Wan Chongxin obviously didn''t have much research on these political structures, and he was completely confused. Watching Wan Chongxin looking at him blankly, Fang Lang didn''t continue talking, but looked at Wan Chongxin, hoping that he could digest and absorb part of what he just said. After a long while, Wan Chongxin asked uncertainly: "You mean, the world will reappear, like the Allies and the Axis, two new hostile groups?" Fang Lang absolutely Wan Chongxin may not know much about the rules of the game between businessmen and the government. However, he already understood the meaning of his last sentence. smiled and nodded: "This understanding is correct." Fang Lang must have confirmed his guess. Wan Chongxin was taken aback, and said with horror on his face: "The war has just ended, so there won''t be another war soon!" "Wars are not wars, at least not direct wars between two big countries. After all, the world war has just ended, and no one can continue to endure a war. " "I see what you mean, you mean the Soviet Union, right? Do we need to cut off business with the Soviet Union? " Fang Lang shook his head and said: "Of course not, the policy has not been implemented for a day, and we can all do business normally. However, we must pay attention to avoiding risks, but it must not happen that the goods are delivered to the other party, but due to political reasons, the payment for the goods cannot be recovered. In this way, our loss will be great. I saw today that our company has business dealings with the Soviet Union. We must keep an eye on political trends in this area and be prepared to be cut off from trade at any time. The best way is that we can train our own people in the government. Now it is obviously too late. But for such a big event, there will be many omens ahead. Lets focus on the statements made by some figures in various major government departments in private or in public. Be sure to get out safely before the policy is officially introduced. Understand? " Wan Chongxin nodded solemnly, obviously aware of the seriousness of this matter. This is a major event that will affect the political, economic, and military structure of the world for nearly fifty years in the future. No matter how important it is, it cannot be overemphasized. But Fang Lang''s next turning point almost made Wan Chongxin fall. "Now that you have understood the danger of this crisis, can you discover the opportunity in the middle?" Wan Chongxin was completely immersed. In the dangerous scene Fang Lang described to him, at first he didn''t realize Fang Lang''s meaning at all. Things have become so serious that it''s too late to worry or fear. How can I think about whether there will be any opportunities in the middle! Fortunately, after more than a year of training, Wan Chongxin is no longer the ignorant young man who didn''t understand anything. After being guided by Fang Lang''s topic, Wan Chongxin immediately thought of something, and quickly said: "You mean that there will be a huge gap in the products originally sold by the Soviet Union to Europe and the United States. We can prepare early and take the opportunity to fill the gap in the middle. " Fang Lang smiled and nodded in satisfaction: "Yeah, did you think of any products?" As the boss of a trading company, Wan Chongxin must have understood the basic information. He stood up and walked around the office. While walking, he said with fingers: "First of all, it must be agricultural products. Affected by the war, European agriculture has been severely damaged. The largest commodity we sell to Europe now is agricultural products. Among them, the demand for grain, oil, various condiments, and alcohol is huge. Now we purchase agricultural products from Brazil, and in the European market, our biggest competitors are grain merchants from the United States and Eastern Europe. If the situation you expected occurs, it means that the grain from Eastern Europe will not be able to enter Europe. Looks like we need more food. As for other commodities, I think we need to start investigating now, what products are sold in Eastern Europe. " Fang Lang was not worried about Wan Chongxin''s business vision. Now after Fang Lang''s suggestion, Fang Lang believes that global trade will definitely be able to take advantage of the opportunity to fill the gap in Eastern European goods and quickly grow in Europe. Actually, Fang Lang also knows that a commodity is also the most scarce in Europe in a short period of time. Why is it in a short period of time? Because this commodity is abundant in Germany, this commodity is coal. The reason for the shortage is that after Germany''s defeat, the Allies limited the scale of coal mining in Germany and demolished many coal mining facilities. As a direct consequence, the severe cold in 1946 and 1947 left many families without heating in Germany, and hundreds of people died of freezing. Although the situation in the UK is not that serious, industrial production had to be stopped in order to meet domestic domestic coal demand. This situation is similar to the European energy crisis that is happening now. Unfortunately, Brazil''s coal resources are relatively small, and the quality is relatively poor, which is not conducive to development and utilization. (end of this chapter) Chapter 226: Prudhoe Bay Project Chapter 226 Prudhoe Bay Project "There is another commodity that you should pay attention to, and that is coal. Coal mines in Germany have been restricted from mining, and there will definitely be a shortage of coal in Europe by then. We are about to start signing procurement agreements with coal mining companies now. Dont worry about not being able to digest this kind of resources and materials. They can be shipped to Brazil and used by our Fangyuan Groups steel plant. If there is an opportunity, I hope that our Global Group can have the opportunity to enter the coal industry. After all, the United States and Canada have the largest coal reserves in the world. However, these two markets are relatively mature, maybe we are a bit late to enter now. How about this! For coal, we can find a way in our Colombia in South America. After all, the distance to our Brazil will also be closer in the future. " Regarding Fang Lang''s order, Wan Chongxin of course carried out without hesitation, and immediately said: "I see, boss. I''ll start preparing as soon as I get back." Fang Lang came to Wan Chongxin''s side, patted Wan Chongxin on the shoulder and said: "Don''t worry, let''s sit down and talk. In this matter, there is another very huge opportunity, and that is the reconstruction of Europe. " Hearing Fang Lang mentioning the reconstruction of Europe, Wan Chongxin hadn''t reacted for a while. After all, Europe is already undergoing reconstruction. Seeing that Wan Chongxin was silent, Fang Lang smiled and said: "What? I don''t believe it! Let''s put it this way! Once this step is reached, Europe will become the forefront of the confrontation between the two major groups. Do you think the United States can allow Europe to continue to be in chaos like it is now? " "Boss, you mean that the United States will support the reconstruction of Europe." After hearing Fang Lang''s analysis, Wan Chongxin immediately grasped the key point. If the United States wants to participate in the reconstruction of Europe, it must either provide loans or provide support. But even if it is support, it will definitely not be compulsory or free. This is a big deal! The more Wan Chongxin thinks about it, the more frightened he feels. If it is true as he guessed, as long as Global Trade can catch this ride in advance, the development prospects for the future will become limitless! "if not? Since the United States wants Europe to serve as a pawn, how can it not give them enough benefits? This means that if you want the horse to run, you must have less fodder! " At this moment, Wan Chongxin doesn''t understand the twists and turns! Trembling with excitement, it took a long time before he suddenly said: "So, boss, when you signed the authorization agreement with those shipyards, you asked for the ships produced by them. Is this the reason? You''ve seen this day coming, haven''t you? Boss, are you a prophet? " Hearing what Wan Chongxin said, Fang Lang was also taken aback. Is this a cult of personality? But Fang Lang is not easy to admit this kind of thing, he just smiled and denied: "These things can be analyzed in advance. As for how to analyze it, you can think about it yourself. When you can know the reason and analyze some things by yourself, you can become a truly successful businessman. " The impact of this incident on Wan Chongxin was enormous. It turned out that he felt that the gap between himself and the boss was not very big. However, today I suddenly realized that I had only reached the second floor, and the boss was already in the atmosphere. is simply an existence that can only be looked up to. Originally Wan Chongxin wanted to continue to learn more from the boss, but unfortunately the secretary knocked on the door and told Fang Lang that a gentleman named Rayel came to visit with two people. Wan Chongxin could only get up and say goodbye to Fang Lang. Fang Lang smiled and patted the other party''s shoulder, and encouraged him to learn more, so he didn''t keep him. I thought Reyel was the only one who came over, but unexpectedly, there were three people who came over. But fortunately, Fang Lang has seen the information of these three people in the information of Richfield Company. Several people greeted each other, Fang Lang directed them to the reception area to sit down, and after asking the secretary to bring a few cups of tea, he went straight to the topic: "I heard my assistant tell me that Mr. Rayer has been waiting for me in New York for a long time, right?" Mr. Reyel and the other two Richfield managers were a little embarrassed when they saw Fang Lang for the first time. Hearing Fang Lang''s active questioning, Reyer quickly replied: "Yes, sorry to bother you, Mr. Fang. The main reason is that now Richfield Company has been fully acquired by Universal Group, but we have not waited for the new boss to come and rearrange our work. The employees were a little nervous. " Fang Lang pointed to the cups of tea on the coffee table, indicating that a few people are free. just glanced at several people unhurriedly, and finally rested his eyes on Mr. Reyel and said: "Then I don''t know if the situation at Richfield Company has gotten out of control while you are in New York?" "Please rest assured Mr. Fang, although we are not in the company. However, the company''s business is going on normally and has not been affected. Only the exploration project in Prudhoe Bay is temporarily suspended due to financial constraints. However, the company now has about 2 million debts, which will be due next month. I hope the boss can make preparations early. " Two million is of course trivial to Fang Lang. He is more concerned about the oil exploration work in Prudhoe Bay now. In his impression, the reason why the oil in Prudhoe Bay was not explored in the early stage was that the drilling depth was not enough, and several drilling holes were even less than ten meters away from the actual oil layer. "Two million in debt is a small problem. Mr. Rayer, I heard that Mr. Morgan speaks very highly of you. Considering that you have worked in this company for so many years, I have no idea of ??changing the management of the company for the time being. However, the group company will definitely send new financial and personnel personnel to the company. I hope you can actively cooperate. In addition, the company''s name will be changed to Global Petroleum Exploration. My concern now is how much money I will need to invest in continuing oil exploration in Prudhoe Bay. " Reyel obviously did not expect that Fang Lang would continue the oil well exploration work in Prudhoe Bay. After all, it can be said that the Richfield Company was dragged down by this project. Now the outside world is generally bad-mouthing the Prudhoe Bay project, thinking that there may be no oil at all. However, Reyel still believes that there must be oil fields hidden in Prudhoe Bay, and previous scientific research and demonstrations support this view. It''s just that they still don''t understand why they have been exploring for so long, and they have drilled thousands of wells without finding targets. Even directly brought down their company and failed to discover oil. He thought that the new boss would definitely give up the project, but he didn''t expect that the boss''s first goal was still the oil field project in Prudhoe Bay. said in disbelief: "Boss, are you serious? I mean, are we going to continue exploring in Prudhoe Bay? " "Why not? How big are our exploration licenses in Prudhoe Bay now! " "Boss, we bought the exploration license for the entire central area of ??Prudhoe Bay from the Alaska government. The area is 100,000 acres, and the total cost is 9.3 million US dollars. The amount of money invested is really huge. In addition, Prudhoe Bay is close to the North Pole, and the land is frozen soil, which makes mining difficult. Because the permafrost has a great influence on seismic waves, we later developed a set of methods to correct the data of the permafrost. So, the huge investment in this project is the real reason that dragged down Richfield Company. " Perhaps, the reason why Reyel explained this situation to Fang Lang was to remind him again of the huge risks of this project. But Fang Lang was secretly happy when he heard it. The purchase of the exploration license for this land alone cost 9.3 million US dollars in the first place. I bought the company by myself but invested only 10 million US dollars in the whole. Plus this company''s machinery and equipment, another piece of land in Texas for oil exploration rights. Combined with the oil wells that are now producing a steady stream of oil, this acquisition is really a big profit. Historically, this oil field was not actually dug into the oil field until December 1967. That is to say, if the normal progress is followed, the oil well will not be available for another 21 years. Since I have the opportunity to acquire this company in advance, of course, I will not let this matter drag on forever. "What is the maximum drilling depth of our exploration equipment?" "2000 meters, our current maximum exploration depth can only reach 2000 meters." "Not enough, immediately go back and order a drilling rig with a depth of at least 2,500 meters. In the central area of ??Prudhoe Bay, the drilled areas continued to drill down. Drill until 2500 meters, see if there is any harvest, can it be done? " The boss has already spoken, and of course Reyer will not have any objections. He understood what the boss meant, which was to trust their judgment that there were oil fields in Prudhoe Bay. think that the reason why they did not succeed is that the drilling depth is not enough. "No problem, Mr. Fang, I will order a set of drilling rigs with a depth of 2,500 meters from Loveland Company immediately." Fang Lang was very satisfied with Reyel''s attitude, smiled and said: "I will have dinner with Mr. Morgan later, discuss it, and then borrow a sum of 10 million US dollars for our global oil exploration company to carry out this project. I hope you don''t let me down. " When Reyel heard this, he actually had a fund of 10 million U.S. dollars. If he just continued to explore on the basis of the original drilling, the money would definitely be enough. So, for a while, Reyel was also very excited. Stand up quickly and thank Fang Lang: "Mr. Fang, thank you! We will definitely not let you down." The two people around Reyel also stood up to express their thanks again and again, but one of them''s eyes lit up when he heard the 10 million dollars in funding. The performance of the other two looks the same, but there is a slight difference. Fang Lang has seen this person from the information, Zuel Swan, who is in charge of the logistics and equipment management of Richfield Company. All the company''s equipment procurement and maintenance work is in charge of this guy. Recalling the other party''s reaction after hearing what he said, Fang Lang was sure that this guy was not a good bird, at least he was a garbage guy who took kickbacks or embezzled public funds. It turned out that Fang Lang couldn''t control what happened at Richfield Company. However, now that the Richfield Company has been acquired by him, it is absolutely impossible for him to allow such a person to exist. But as a boss, of course, you cant just fire an employee just because you have a glance and think there is something wrong with the other party. Only when the three left, Fang Lang stopped Reyer and asked him to join the personnel stationed in the group company to start an investigation on this Mr. Zuel Swan. Focus on investigating the other party''s economic problems. If, after getting the exact evidence, talk to the other party directly. Of course, the result will definitely not keep this person in the new company. (end of this chapter) Chapter 227: Cosmopolitan Chapter 227 Universal Family For a whole day, Fang Lang was at the headquarters of Universal Group, dealing with the company''s backlog of official business. It was not until it was dark that I was awakened by the knock on the door, thinking that it was the company secretary who had something to say, casually said: "Come in!" As a result, it was Lilith who opened the door. Fang Lang got up quickly, walked forward, and opened his hands as he walked. Lilith was like a baby swallow returning home and threw herself into Fang Lang''s arms, shouting as she rushed over: "Lang, I miss you so much. Huh." Feeling the attachment of the girl in his arms to him, Fang Lang was very happy, hugged her tightly, bowed his head and kissed her on the forehead. "Lilith, I miss you too." After being kissed on the forehead, Lilith obviously couldn''t be satisfied. The little girl raised her head directly, and her soft lips pressed against Fang Lang''s mouth. The enthusiasm that erupted at this moment almost made Fang Lang unable to control it. Just when the two of them had a French kiss, and the kiss was dark, there was a very discordant coughing sound at the door. Pulled the two back from the state where they were about to wipe out their guns. Fang Lang looked up, and it turned out to be Miss Ophelia Berger, still watching the two at the door. "Miss Ophelia Berger, if there is nothing else, you can get off work. Lets talk about something tomorrow. " Fang Lang was very dissatisfied with Ophelia Berg''s ignorant performance. Didn''t you see that the boss was making out with his girlfriend? You can eat dog food quietly, it is really immoral to disturb other people''s intimacy. Before Ophelia Berg could speak, Lilith in her arms had already started to speak: "Ah! I''m sorry, Sister Ophelia, I..." Maybe a little embarrassed, Lilith turned her head and said to the other side: "Lang, I have made an appointment with Sister Ophelia to have dinner together tonight." As soon as Fang Lang heard this, Fang Lang understood what was going on. He didn''t expect that Ophelia Berg and Lilith met for the first time, and they had a good relationship. Looking at the sky outside, it was indeed dark, and Fang Lang didn''t intend to continue working now, so he said to Ophelia Berg: "Any good restaurant recommendations?" Ophelia Berg couldn''t tell what she was thinking at this time. When he saw Fang Lang and Lilith making out, he wanted to turn around and leave very much. However, I remembered that I had a very speculative chat with Lilith along the way. The other party took the initiative to make an appointment with me to have dinner together tonight, and I agreed without thinking too much. Seeing the two kissing each other, the sky was dim and the sky was dark, completely ignoring their own existence. Originally, I wanted to cough twice and tell Lilith that I would cancel the dinner party today. As a result, Fang Lang''s attitude made her very upset. What do you mean, it turns out that when the girlfriend is not around, she teases herself. Now that the girlfriend is by my side, it has become a superior-subordinate relationship again, and I want to make myself consciously stand out. snort! man. Just don''t let you get what you want. Today I will spoil your good deeds. "On the way, Lilith said that she wants to eat Chinese food. Do you want to try it in Chinatown?" Fang Lang was taken aback by these words, he hugged Lilith''s waist and said: "Oh! Lilith, why do you want to eat Chinese food?" "Because you are Chinese! So, I want to adapt to your taste, it turns out that there is no Chinese food in Italy. However, I found several Chinese restaurants in Boston, and after eating them, I felt very delicious. So, I just want to eat the taste of your hometown with you! " Lilith said with a smile when she heard Fang Lang''s question. Hearing Lilith''s words, Fang Lang realized that he had indeed not eaten Chinese food for a long time. I just dont know if Chinese food in New York is authentic Chinese food. After thinking about it, he said: "All right, let''s go to Chinatown." A group of people drove into Chinatown under the **** of the guards, not knowing where to find authentic Chinese food. Walking and walking, I saw the signboard of the Four Seas Family. Isnt this the entrance of Hongmentang! Anyway, I don''t know where to eat, so I just chose this restaurant. A group of people walked into a big hotel in Sihai, startling the welcome guests at the door. This posture is not a simple figure at first glance. The characters surrounded by so many bodyguards are obviously not something he can afford. In particular, when several guards got off the car, the Thomson submachine gun leaked from under the black woolen coat. Welcome''s eyelids twitched. hurriedly stepped forward to say hello, and he was relieved when he asked if he was here for dinner. This kind of big man must not let the other party eat on the first floor! He hurriedly went to the box on the second floor to welcome him. The bodyguards didn''t care what happened, they went inside and searched for a while. After confirming that there is no problem, he nodded to the outside. Fang Lang got out of the car with the two beauties. When the welcome guest saw that the visitor turned out to be an Asian, he couldn''t help being taken aback. When did the United States have such a big man. This scene is almost as good as that of the President of the United States. Actually, he doesn''t know what kind of ostentation the President of the United States is, but he feels that the President of the United States should be like this. At least the bosses in their halls definitely don''t have such a big show. Hastily stepped forward to greet him: "Boss, please come inside!" Fang Lang looked at the enthusiastic guy in front of him, smiled and said: "Can your chef know how to cook authentic Chinese food? Don''t take out those things that fool foreign devils. " The man didn''t expect that this was a Chinese, and the enthusiasm on his face suddenly increased a little. Mouth hastily said: "Master, you have come to the right place. In the entire Chinatown, we are the only ones who can really cook authentic Chinese food. " Hearing this title, Fang Lang felt amused, and said with a smile: "Listen to the accent, brother is from Peking." When the guy heard this, he became even more cordial. Such a big man calls himself a brother, and he can boast for ten years when he goes out in the future. "My lord, you are this." As he spoke, he gave a thumbs up. "In my impression, among the Chinese in the United States, it seems that there are more people in Fujian and Guangdong! I didn''t expect to meet a Pekingese. " The two walked and chatted, and Fang Langdao also felt cordial. "You''re right, our family was escaped by a little devil when he entered Peking, and I was already fifteen years old when I first came here. So, this accent cannot be changed. " Fang Lang remembered the Peking accent that he had heard for a long time when watching TV in later generations, and he felt very kind when he heard it at this time. smiled and said: "Change whatever, it''s fine like this." As the two of them walked into the box, the guy wiped the table with a towel and said: "My lord, what flavor do you want to eat today, I will personally explain to the chef in the kitchen to ensure authenticity." "Oh! What flavors do you all have?" In Fang Lang''s impression, there should be four major cuisines in his hometown during this period, namely Northeast cuisine, Northwest cuisine, Shandong cuisine, and Cantonese cuisine. The eight major cuisines that became popular all over the world later, there is no such term at this time. So, Fang Lang is also very curious about what flavors this Universal Family can make. "Look at what you said, the family of the four seas, what is the four seas, of course it is good at all four major cuisines!" The buddy said with a face full of complacency, but the work in his hand didn''t stop, and he was still pouring tea for Fang Lang and the others. Fang Lang in his previous life actually preferred to eat heavy-tasting dishes such as Sichuan cuisine and Hunan cuisine. Unfortunately, I dont know if I can eat it at this time, so I tentatively said: "Are there any cooks from the Xiangchuan area?" Unexpectedly, this guy is really a knowledgeable person, so he immediately asked: "Oh! This master likes spicy food, doesn''t he? No problem, we will arrange for you directly. " "Let''s do this! See if they can make eggplant stew, twice-cooked pork, and mapo tofu. I only need this dish. Serve Cantonese food to the lady! Lighter, roast goose, barbecued pork, sweet and sour pork, steamed sea bass, white-cut chicken and so on. Let''s try the taste, and if it''s really authentic, we''ll eat it often. " Fang Lang didn''t know if these dishes were available here, so he ordered some of the dishes he would often eat in the future. Unexpectedly, this guy didn''t even think about it, so he just repeated the name of the dish according to Fang Lang''s order. "Master, just watch it, I will arrange it for you right away!" "Don''t forget, arrange two tables for my brothers and let them try the taste." The buddy got Fang Lang''s order, and while going out, he didn''t forget to turn his head and bend down to Fang Lang. shouted: "That''s it! My lord, I guarantee that the arrangements will be properly made for you." I don''t know why, Fang Lang feels that this guy is a slave in the old society, but this feeling of being served is still very comfortable. The two women saw that Fang Lang and this guy communicated in Chinese throughout the whole process, and they couldn''t get in their mouths, so they could only watch silently from the side. Among them, Lilith is already learning Chinese because of Fang Lang. But since I just started, it is still difficult to even listen. But he understood one word. Looking at Fang Lang with a puzzled face, he asked: "Lang, why did he call you grandpa? Is he your grandson?" Fang Lang, who had just picked up the tea on the table and took a sip, heard what Lilith said, and almost spit out the tea in his mouth. Coughed several times in a row before recovering. Seeing Fang Lang''s appearance, Lilith patted Fang Lang''s back with her hands to help him feel better. "Lilith, when did you start learning Chinese?" Seeing that Fang Lang was fine, Lilith was relieved and said: "I was in Boston''s Chinatown, and I hired a little Chinese girl to be my Chinese teacher! However, Chinese is really difficult! I can barely understand a little bit now. " Needless to say, Lilith''s purpose of learning Chinese must be for herself. Fang Lang really felt very happy at this moment. This Italian girl secretly learned Chinese for herself, and then remembered that the other party proposed to eat Chinese food. This kind of girl who accommodates herself and thinks about herself makes it hard for Fang Lang to believe that this is an Italian girl. This kind of personality seems to be more like the feeling of traditional Chinese women. Thinking of this, Fang Lang involuntarily reached out to hold Lilith in his arms, and said softly: "The lord doesn''t just refer to grandpa. In the feudal aristocratic family in my hometown, the servants usually regard the status higher than themselves, or the master of the family as lord. Like wives and concubines in the family, they will refer to the male master of the family as the master, and the son of the male master''s family as the young master. Just now this persons hometown is Beiping, and they have the habit of referring to respectable people as lords. This does not mean that I am his grandfather. Understand? " Fang Lang was very moved by Lilith''s silent dedication. However, he will not be courteous to the other party verbally, but will only show more affection for the other party in action. Unexpectedly, after listening to Fang Lang''s words, Lilith said directly: "So, Vivian and I should both call you Master, right?" These words made Fang Lang laugh out loud, and it took a long time before he kissed Lilith and said: "We are not those feudal nobles, I like to hear you call me dear, it is more kind." (end of this chapter) Chapter 228: Hongmens request Chapter 228 Hongmen''s request Lilith, who was kissed by Fang Lang, was very happy, and cried out sweetly: "Honey!" It made Ophelia Berg on the opposite side very embarrassed. said to Lilith: "Lilith, can you pay attention to my feelings? If I knew this, I wouldn''t go out for dinner with you guys. " After hearing what Ophelia Berg said, Lilith stuck out her tongue in embarrassment and said: "Alright! Sister Ophelia, I won''t do it next time!" Fang Lang pulled Lilith over and kissed again, then said: "Hey, Ophelia, do you want to get used to it in the future?" After finishing speaking, he ignored the widened eyes of Ophelia Berg on the opposite side, and said to Lilith: "You just mentioned Vivienne, I''ve been too busy recently, and I didn''t even have the chance to visit her in France. You see when you have time, let''s fly together and go to France to see her. " "But, I also want to learn! If I come to accompany you these two days, I will also ask for leave, and I will definitely be criticized by the teacher after I go back. " "How is your studies! I have already prepared a hospital for you in Brazil! I will let you practice after you graduate. " "Ah! It''s still early! I''ve been studying for less than a year now. There are still three years before I graduate! " "At that time, every winter and summer vacation, I will arrange someone to pick you up for an internship in the hospital I prepared for you. If your classmates are interested, you can also bring them along. Only in this way can knowledge be mastered faster, right? " "Really? That''s so good, I''ll tell my classmates when I get back to school. Now everyone is in distress! Many hospitals are reluctant to accept female doctors. " "Haha. At that time, you will dig them all up and go to work in your hospital. Don''t worry, I will definitely give this hospital the greatest support. Equipped with the best medical equipment. At the same time, we will fully support everyone''s research on new medical technologies. " Fang Lang and Lilith seemed to have endless things to say, and they communicated endlessly on the side. The opposite Ophelia Berg, at this time, felt that she had miscalculated today, so she shouldn''t have come to eat with these two guys in a fit of pique. Its better now, I dont need to eat at all, Im already full of gas. Fortunately, there was a knock on the door of the box, interrupting the communication between the gluey couple opposite. Also rescued myself from embarrassing situations. "Come in!" Fang Lang yelled casually, and it was the guard at the door who came in. He stood by the door and said to Fang Lang: "Boss, the guy in the store has brought someone over, saying he wants to see you!" With a move in his heart, Fang Lang had a faint guess. "Let them in!" The guard led the order to close the door and left. Soon the door of the box was knocked again. After the guard opened the door, the man walked in with a thin old man who he thought was in his fifties. Fang Lang knew who the other party was with just one glance. But with his identity, he doesn''t care too much about the other party''s identity, pointing to a stool on the dining table and saying: "Master Fang, please sit down!" Hearing Fang Lang''s address, the thin old man arched his hands politely and said: "Mr. Fang, you are welcome! The small shop is full of splendor, and the greetings are not good enough!" Seeing the other party''s polite manner, it is obvious that both parties know each other''s identity. After all, the two have such a big business, it is impossible for Hongmen not to conduct some investigations on the Brazilian Fang family. It is not surprising that someone like Fang Lang can be found. Because Fang Lang never hid his identity in Brazil. However, Fang Lang was a little surprised by the abilities of these gangs when he came over for a meal today, and the other party was able to recognize him. "Hehe. Hall Master Fang, don''t be too polite, I just came here today to taste the authentic taste of my hometown. I hope Hall Master Fang was not disturbed. " "Don''t bother, don''t bother, it''s our honor that you can dine in the shop." As the head of the Hongmen New York branch, Fang Jinao''s performance was somewhat beyond Fang Lang''s expectations. If the other party was a Brazilian gang, Fang Lang wouldn''t be surprised. However, as an American gang, Fang Lang didn''t feel the need for the other party to treat him like this, and kept his voice low. It seems that today I have something to ask myself. Smiled Fang Lang said: "Master Fang, you are welcome, you and my uncle are also friends. Moreover, the business cooperation between our two companies is very good. If you have anything to say, please tell me. " Fang Lang''s frankness was beyond Fang Jinao''s expectation, but thinking about the other party''s identity, he was relieved. But he didn''t directly express his thoughts. Instead, send a gift first: "Mr. Fang, I have received some gossip from here. There is a guy named Little Richfield who is looking for a gunman in New York and wants to harm you. But that kid has no money, so no one takes orders at all. However, a few days ago our people discovered that this Mr. Richfield appeared in a karate club in the Japanese community. Then, the search for the shooter died away. I think there should be a problem here, I hope you can pay attention to your own safety. " This was an unexpected situation. Fang Lang had expected that Little Richfield wanted to get back on the field. I wasn''t surprised, but the other party got involved with the Japanese, which greatly exceeded Fang Lang''s expectations. Or some Japanese took the initiative to find Little Richfield and wanted to be behind the scenes. As for where the Japanese are, Fang Lang doesn''t care, after all, he has offended too many Japanese. The Japanese in Brazil, because they have almost been driven out. But his actions in Brazil are very covert, so it shouldn''t be easy for people to find out. However, the behavior in Japan can be called blatant. Especially the Sumitomo family, after he left Japan, he should be able to easily find that the capital left by his family for future resurgence has been evacuated by Fang Lang. They dare not publicize this kind of thing, nor do they dare to let the US garrison know that they are hiding wealth. But with the size of Sumitomo''s family, a thin camel is bigger than a horse, and it is very easy to get revenge on Fang Lang. In addition, my actions in Tokyo are not secretive, and it is not difficult for interested people to find clues. So, Fang Lang has too many enemies among the Japanese. It can be said that all Japanese who know what Fang Lang has done will regard Fang Lang as an enemy. In this case, it doesn''t make much sense to worry about the power that is Japan. Of course, it is impossible for Fang Lang to allow others to act against him without being indifferent. Although I don''t care who the other party is. However, it doesn''t mean that Fang Lang won''t figure out the other party''s true identity background, because only after knowing the other party''s identity can he make targeted arrangements. Fang Lang was very grateful for Fang Jinao''s warning. "Thank you for the reminder, Hall Master Fang, I will let my people focus on it. We don''t have much relationship in the United States. If you receive any other news, please let me know in time. Don''t worry. I won''t let your help be in vain! " Fang Lang knew that the other party must be asking for something when he was looking for him. This is to give himself a little benefit first, so that he can not be rejected when he makes a request later. "Mr. Fang, don''t worry! You are a friend of our Hongmen. When encountering such a thing, we will definitely do our best to help! Our people have never given up looking for Mr. Richfield Jr. It''s a pity that the other party is hiding very deeply under the cover of the little devil. " Actually, at this time, this little Richfield is simply insignificant. Obviously the Japanese, the ones who are going to take the blame. If it weren''t for the people from Hongmen to provide him with this news, and after someone attacked him, and told him that it was planned by Little Richfield, Fang Lang might really believe it. It''s all right now, the whereabouts of the Japanese and Little Richfield were discovered. It means that the two sides are already in collusion, and of course Fang Lang will not give Little Japan a chance to escape. "It''s okay, Hall Master Fang doesn''t need to look for it deliberately, so as not to startle the snake. Lets talk about Hall Master Fang! As I said before, we are both Chinese, and it is only natural to help each other. Please tell me what is the matter, if I can do it, I will never refuse. " Fang Jinao couldn''t help admiring Fang Lang when he saw Fang Lang''s indifferent look. To be able to maintain such a calmness when knowing that you are being targeted by evil forces, this kind of bearing is not something ordinary people can have. After thinking for a while, Fang Jinao didn''t hide anything, but said directly: "Mr. Fang, it is like this. You also know that our Hongmen has always been a group that protects the interests of our overseas Chinese. Every place where there are Chinese, there must be our Hongmen hall. Now the number of Chinese in Brazil is increasing rapidly, we Hongmen want to go to Brazil to set up a church. I don''t know if I can get your permission. " Fang Lang had expected this for a long time. It is indeed a normal operation for Hongmen to open a hall in Brazil. But Fang Lang didn''t expect that the other party would ask his opinion. Seriously speaking, Fang Lang doesn''t hate Hongmen, especially Hongmen in this period. It can be said that Hongmen has made positive contributions to the modern history of the country. Otherwise, among the democratic parties in my hometown, the Zhigong party would not be allowed to exist. But at the same time, Fang Lang knew that Brazil was influenced by the United States later, and drug poverty was rampant. As a black gang, if Hongmen enters Brazil, he will definitely be involved. If they were transporting the drug poor to Europe and the United States, Fang Lang would not care. But if they use the power of Hongmen in the world to sell it in the direction of their hometown, Fang Lang can''t bear it. After thinking about it, Fang Lang decided to make it clear. "Hall Master Fang, in fact, I have no right to intervene in your Hongmen affairs, nor should I. However, since you took the initiative to ask for my opinion, this is my respect. I''m very grateful! Then I will talk about my opinion. First of all, I have no objection to Hongmens plan to open a hall in Brazil. " Fang Jinao didn''t expect that Fang Lang would express his position so simply and directly. Originally, he shouldn''t have come forward to talk to Fang Lang about this matter, but Mr. Situ is now in Hong Kong. Fang Lang went to Sihai''s family for dinner again today. Such an opportunity is very rare. Pave the way with a piece of information about Fang Lang''s safety. If you make this request, it will not make the other party disgusted. It''s not that Hongmen must obtain Fang Lang''s permission to open a hall in Brazil. They are gangs, they don''t have to register at all. However, the situation of Brazilian immigrants is quite special. This is an immigration business they themselves are involved in. If you set up your own Hongmen hall among immigrants, it is a bad manner. Will be despised by people in the rivers and lakes. (end of this chapter) Chapter 229: bodyguard Chapter 229 Bodyguard Fang Jinao is very happy with Fang Lang''s statement, which at least means that Hongmen''s behavior of building a hall in Brazil was authorized by the boss. He knew that Fang Lang hadn''t finished speaking, and he must have requirements for the forces that entered his sphere of influence to develop. Sure enough, I heard Fang Lang continue: "However, we all know what kind of organization Hongmen is. I don''t expect Hongmen to be able to truly protect the interests of the Chinese in Brazil. But it must not be tolerated, using the natural advantages of the identity of the Chinese organization to harm the interests of the Chinese. I dont care about other things, but selling drugs to Chinese compatriots is never allowed. I know it''s too early for both of us to discuss this topic. How the situation will develop in the future, we still can''t control it now. Here, I just express my attitude towards drug poverty. If Hongmen participates in it in the future, I will not estimate the favor. do you understand me? " Of course Fang Jinao understood what Fang Lang meant. Such a request was actually almost the same as no request, which made him a little unbelievable for a while. Both parties are well aware of whether Hongmen will participate in drug trafficking. Hearing Fang Lang say, it''s just that he can''t sell to his compatriots. Fang Jinao understood what Fang Lang meant. This is because the other party knows that some things cannot be completely eliminated, and wants to protect the Chinese community as much as possible. But Fang Jinao couldn''t give a direct answer to this kind of thing. After all, he was just a hall master, and he was not the one who could make the decision. After thinking about it, Fang Jinao said directly: "Mr. Fang, thank you for your generosity! I will report your request to the Mountain Lord. We will notify you as soon as we have the result. " Fang Lang knew that it was basically impossible for these people not to do this business. However, Hongmen should not be underestimated in terms of financial or human resources. If he can be guided well, he will definitely be able to help him. So, after thinking about it, I said: Actually, if you want to make money, there are many ways. Brazil is poor and white now, and there are a lot of opportunities to make a fortune. If Hongmen intends to enter the business to make a fortune, you can talk to me, and I can provide some help. " Gangs in this period have a relatively single type of business. Although there are some bigwigs who intervene in some legitimate businesses, most of them give themselves a coat of approval. Hearing that Fang Lang wanted to introduce Zhenghang business to Hongmen, this was beyond Fang Jinao''s expectation. He said very curiously: "Oh! Mr. Fang, can you tell me what kind of business you have?" Seeing that the other party was interested, Fang Lang didn''t hide it. smiled and said: "In fact, there are many businesses that are very suitable for you, and have higher profits than your current business. For example, now we invest in building a lot of factories in Brazil, and there are some unskilled jobs in the early stage of factory construction. Like land expropriation and demolition, we often encounter some local residents who are unwilling to cooperate with the demolition. When it is difficult for the government or businessmen to handle it, cant you contract this kind of business? I believe that this kind of work should not be difficult for you, right! Also, your important source of income now is protection fees! Why don''t you just set up a security company and contract other people''s security business? As long as you can really protect the safety of others, I think this kind of business will become very simple! There are so many formal businesses like this! " Fang Jinao looked at Fang Lang in surprise, which opened the door to a new world for him! If it is true what Fang Lang said, they will become a regular company. No matter in the United States or where, such companies carry out formal business with contracts. Dont worry anymore, the police will come to your door every now and then. What he doesn''t know is that this is the way out for the future of their industry. Mixing rivers and lakes is also for a living, they just haven''t learned how to use business rules. "Mr. Fang, thank you for your suggestion! I will report your ideas upwards, and I am personally very willing to participate in these businesses. " Fang Jinao has exceeded his goal today. Looking at the two girls who came to eat with Fang Lang, their expressions became a little impatient, and they knew that they should resign tactfully. hurriedly got up, cupped his hands at Fang Lang and said: "Mr. Fang, the occasion is not right today, brother, I will not bother you for now. We will continue to follow up on the movement of that little Mr. Richfield and the Japanese. If there is any news, we will immediately arrange someone to notify you directly. " After speaking, there was a confrontation, and the guy who brought him in said: "Mr. Fang is free of charge for all purchases in the store today, do you understand?" The man obviously already knew that the young man in front of him was a big man who would even curry favor with the head of Hongmen, he nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, hall master!" Hearing Fang Jinao''s words, Fang Lang smiled, didn''t say much, just offered his hand to the other party. It''s not that Fang Lang has a big airs. Rather, he and the other party are not in the same circle, and there is no need for him to get involved too much with the other party. As for the gang power, Fang Lang has long been handed over to his uncle Fang Xinshui to deal with. Hongmen should have gone to talk to Fang Xinshui instead of finding Fang Lang directly. If it weren''t for Hongmen''s great role in the immigration work, and provided him with news of Little Richfield''s collusion with the Japanese, Fang Lang could really ignore them. After Fang Jinao exited the room, Lilith said worriedly: "Honey, did he just say that someone is trying to harm you?" Because Fang Lang and Fang Jinao communicated in Chinese throughout the whole process, Lilith could only understand a little bit, and with guessing, he was blinded by the general meaning. Seeing Lilith''s nervous expression full of worry, Fang Lang smiled and took Lilith''s hand, patted the back of her hand and said: "Don''t worry! My guards are not vegetarians, anyone who can hurt me hasn''t been born yet! However, your words reminded me that I should pay attention to the safety of you and Vivienne. I''ll have to see if there are any suitable female security personnel. " As he spoke, he looked up at Ophelia Berg and said: "Miss Berg, do you know where there are female security personnel?" Unfortunately, due to the status of women in this period, female soldiers were basically not allowed to go to the battlefield. It''s not that there are female soldiers who have never been on the battlefield. As far as Fang Lang knows, the only female soldiers who have combat experience should be the Soviet Union and Germany. Most female soldiers in other countries are engaged in logistics and civilian work, and basically do not appear in combat positions. Most of the female soldiers who have participated in combat training are special departments, such as intelligence agents and the like. So, when Fang Lang asked if there were female security personnel, Ophelia Berg was a little at a loss. Obviously, he has no understanding of this information. But when the boss asked, she could only bite the bullet and say: "I''m sorry, boss, I haven''t been in contact with this business for the time being. Going to work tomorrow, I''ll go search and see if there are any people in this area. " Several people were talking when the guard knocked on the door again. Soon, I saw the buddy bring up the dishes Fang Lang ordered with a few people. Fang Lang, seeing the style of the dishes, knew that he had found the right one this time, although he hadn''t tasted it yet. But it doesn''t look much different from the color, smell, and taste he saw in later generations. Nodding in satisfaction, he did not forget to say to Ophelia Berg: "Let''s do this! I estimate that there may be fewer female personnel in this area now. If it really doesn''t work, I will arrange a few of my guards to take charge of Lily''s guard work first. " After hearing the conversation between the two, Lilith waved her hands again and again: "No honey, I''m perfectly safe at school. If you are worried about my safety, I can stay out of school. I will be with you when I leave school, it doesn''t matter. " Fang Lang was still not at ease, and was still thinking about whether there was any way. The guy in charge of serving the food suddenly said: "Master Fang, are you looking for a female bodyguard with real kung fu?" Hearing what the buddy said, Fang Lang''s heart moved: "Oh! Brother, you mean, do you have a suitable candidate here?" The guy saw that Fang Lang didn''t deny it, nodded and said: "I do know that there are two people like this, right here in Chinatown. I can ask them for you if they would like to. " "Tell me, what is the specific situation of these two people." Fang Lang is really curious, what kind of person this guy is talking about. The guy was really interested in seeing Fang Lang, and introduced him to Fang Lang. "Since Master Fang, you are really interested, then I will talk to you. Walking 50 meters inside, there is a Chinese medicine clinic. The owner and doctor of the clinic is Li Yunze, who is less than 50 this year and came to the United States two years earlier than me. I heard that a family of five escaped from a murder case in Jinmen. The husband and wife have three children, one son and two daughters. This family usually doesn''t go out very much. Mr. Li Yunze is good at medicine, so the business of the clinic is very good. Some time ago, their son fought with someone at school and injured the son of a white family. Recently, there have always been some white gangsters coming to the hospital to make trouble. The day before yesterday, I saw with my own eyes more than 20 strong white men who went in with sticks and smashed them up. I wanted to go in and help out. As a result, it turns out that this family is all Lianjiazi. Man, that''s really neat. Facing a dozen or so strong white men, the two little girls seemed to chop melons and vegetables without any effort. Before I realized what happened, more than twenty strong men fell to the ground. This old man Li usually looks silent, like a dull gourd. Then its true when you move your hands, how should I say it? People who are touched by him basically lose their ability to resist. Before, I didnt quite believe that there was really kung fu in this world. However, I opened my eyes the day before yesterday. So, I heard you said that you wanted to find two female bodyguards for your female companion, so I thought of this family. " This was really beyond Fang Lang''s expectation, could this be the legendary martial arts master? Although Fang Lang from later generations has received a lot of information, he has never seen a real martial arts master. The fights that can be seen are some, boxing and other competitive games, there are various genres. What kind of sticky Taekwondo is everywhere. You say this thing strengthens the body! That''s definitely no problem, but you have to say how high his actual combat ability is. Fang Lang thinks it''s better to consider Mad Dog Boxing, Kung Fu has become some performance routines. In Fang Lang''s heart, he believes that China has real kung fu. Thinking about China''s five thousand years of history, it is a living history of war. There are so many weapons such as swords, guns, swords and halberds that have been born in history. Put it out and see! Its just modern society. Its not just talk about being banned by chivalry. People with real kung fu dont dare to fight with others. With the emergence of firearms, kung fu gradually declined. (end of this chapter) Chapter 230: master Chapter 230 Master I didnt expect to have such a windfall when I came to Chinatown for a meal today. If what this guy said is true, then this family may really be the real Lian family in this era. But from the guy''s words, Fang Lang also discovered that the family must be encountering difficulties now. The white man his son injured will definitely not give up easily. That''s why, there are cases of white people coming to smash the door. Fang Lang smiled and said: "Brother, you are not just introducing a female bodyguard for me! According to what you mean, do you want me to help this family? You should also be a member of the Hongmen! Why not help them out? " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, the buddy was not embarrassed to be seen through. smiled and said: "Master Fang, you are joking! I am just a small person, many things are beyond our control. All we can do is throw those troublemakers out of Chinatown. But, as you should also know, the punks aren''t their problem. " Fang Lang understood what the other party meant. The real problem of this family was obviously the family of the white boy who was injured by their son. If they can''t settle the other party, their family will be harassed endlessly. "I''m really interested in what you said, aren''t they from your Hongmen?" The buddy waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Of course not, if it were, we wouldn''t just throw those white **** out of Chinatown. Those white gangsters would not dare to attack us Hongmen. " The man obviously knew that Fang Lang didn''t want to recruit a member of the Hong family to be his woman''s bodyguard. "Then it''s hard work for you to go to that house to see if they are at home. We will go there after dinner." When I saw Fang Lang, I really wanted to go to the Chinese Medicine Museum, and the guy was very happy. He believes that with the strength shown by Fang Lang, he must be able to settle the problems encountered by this family. Even, he was sure that if Fang Lang really recruited the two girls from this family as bodyguards. Without Fang Lang''s action, their hall master Fang Jinao can take the initiative to settle this matter for the other party. Dont underestimate Hongmens influence in the United States, although these little people at the bottom dont have much influence. However, the influence of the hall masters above, the mountain masters, etc. is very huge. Even Roosevelt was once the legal adviser of Mr. Situ. "Come on! Master Fang, eat slowly, I''ll go and check for you right away if Mr. Li''s family is here." Finished! He also beat a thousand like the slaves in the Manchu Qing Dynasty. Fang Lang shook his head as he watched. It seems that this guy''s original home must be the old and the young in the Forty-Nine City. Fang Lang didn''t mean to look down on the other party, but he just felt that he had already arrived in the United States, and he should get rid of this slavish habit, so that foreigners would look down on him for no reason. This guy may be the kind of person that others often say, the braids on his head are cut off, but the braids in his heart are still there! However, this guy is not a bad person, and he can think about finding opportunities to help his compatriots solve problems. After the buddy left, Fang Lang and others finally began to concentrate on tasting this authentic Chinese meal. Fang Lang feels that the taste of these dishes is actually not as delicious as what later generations tasted. I dont know if its because there are not so many suitable ingredients in the United States at this time, or because of some other reason. However, Lilith and Ophelia Berg ate with gusto. Fang Lang explained to Lilith while picking up dishes for Lilith, and later generations heard the legends about the origin of these dishes. Actually, the dishes that Fang Lang ordered today are not big dishes, far from the level of sophistication like a Manchu banquet. But it is the most common dish in later generations, and it can often test the true level of the chef. Fang Lang felt that the dishes on the table today could only be regarded as mediocre. But Fang Lang doesn''t care, as long as the two girls like to eat. It didn''t take long for everyone to eat, mainly because the two girls didn''t have much appetite. Just after eating, the guy was already waiting at the door. "Master Fang, I went to see it just now, Mr. Li''s family is at home! Look, how about I take you there now? " Fang Lang looked up and saw that it was already dark, and street lights were lit on the street beside the road. In New York in April, although there is no snow, the weather is still very cold. Fang Lang grabbed Lilith''s hand, rubbed it a few times on his hand, put it in his pocket, and waved his hand: "Let''s go, let''s go see if there is really such a powerful martial arts master as you said." Then, a group of people didn''t get in the car, and came to the traditional Chinese medicine clinic that the buddy said under the curious eyes of people on the street. It is not a Chinese-style building in Fang Lang''s mind. It looks like a two-story tenement house with a small door. It is not on the main street, but in a small alley. At first glance, you can see a spacious living room converted into a Chinese-style pharmacy. The row of large medicine cabinets exudes Fang Lang''s familiar fragrance of medicinal materials. It may be the reason why the buddy said hello in advance. At this time, a family of five was standing neatly inside. I saw Fang Lang and others coming to the door under the leadership of the buddy. As the male host, Mr. Li stepped out. The old Mr. Li in the guy''s mouth didn''t look old at all. Fang Lang felt that the other party looked younger than his father. I dont know why the guy called him Mr. Li. This is a middle-aged man who looks very energetic. From his appearance alone, he definitely can''t see the ability to lose resistance when he touches others as the buddy said. However, Fang Lang can feel a dangerous aura on the opponent. Although the opponent has tried his best to restrain himself, Fang Lang''s sixth sense can still clearly capture the power of this carnivore. Fang Lang didn''t feel the danger from this middle-aged man, and stretched out his right hand with a smile. Noticing that the other party raised his hands, it seemed that he was about to salute. As a result, he noticed Fang Lang''s outstretched right hand, put his hand down again, and quickly stretched out his right hand to hold Fang Lang together. The opponent''s palm was very rough, completely different from the doctor in Fang Lang''s impression. Understood, the opponent''s kung fu should be very powerful. "Mr. Li, I''ve taken the liberty to visit, sorry to bother you." Li Yun said very politely: "You are welcome, Xiaolin told me your thoughts. To be honest, if you had come over a few days earlier, I would have rejected you directly. However, the current situation is somewhat special. Wonder how dangerous is the person you want my daughter to protect? " Fang Lang understood Mr. Li''s meaning, smiled and said: "Mr. Li, don''t worry. How about we sit down and have a good chat?" Li Yun smiled embarrassedly, and quickly turned sideways, trying to let Fang Lang into the house. Before Fang Lang could enter, several guards around him had already walked in first, and Li Yun was taken aback for a moment before realizing it. smiled and didn''t say much. Fang Lang followed Li Yunze into this traditional Chinese medicine hall. The area is not large, and there is no one else in it now. There is only a middle-aged woman who looks in her forties, and a young man with thick eyebrows and big eyes, who should be about the same age as Fang Lang. This is beyond Fang Lang''s expectations. This young man is still studying at school at such an age. Could it be that you are going to university? This is rare! The other two girls looked like twins. As far as appearance is concerned, although it can''t be considered particularly beautiful, it can be considered to be in line with the aesthetics of oriental people. What''s impressive is that the two sisters are well-proportioned, with a height of 1.7 meters. You can tell she is a sporty girl at a glance. Fang Lang nodded to several people one by one as a greeting. Li Yun guided Fang Lang to sit at an Eight Immortals table in the middle of the living room, and introduced to Fang Lang: "Mr. Fang, please sit down! These are my family. " Li Yunze''s lover took the initiative to serve Fang Lang tea. Fang Lang patted the stool beside him, motioning for Lilith to be next to him. Facing Li Yunze, he said: "I heard that Mr. Li escaped after carrying out a life lawsuit in Jinmen. Is it convenient to talk to me? " Li Yun obviously didn''t expect that Fang Lang would ask this topic, and his face turned bitter. Mrs. Li, who was pouring tea for everyone, was also shaken all over, and spilled some tea without knowing it. The three young men behind him were hesitant to speak, but obviously their family education was strict, so they all held back their silence. After a long while, Li Yunze said: "Since Mr. Fang asked, I have nothing to hide, this matter has been in the past for a long time. At that time, our family had just settled down in Jinmen, and when my wife and I went out to the street, we were stopped by two Japanese wanderers, who wanted to touch my wife. I hit harder, and those two **** died instantly. At that time, the Japanese were so tyrannical that the police didnt dare to offend the Japanese, so we had to take our families and escape from Jinmen overnight. Finally, I settled down in Chinatown, New York. " Hearing the other party''s understatement, Fang Lang felt that it might not be that simple. However, after knowing that the other party killed the Japanese, Fang Lang laughed loudly and said: "Killing is good, I like to make friends with people who kill Japanese. Your husband may not know, but I killed too many Japanese people. So, the Japanese now want to play dirty with me. I don''t care about it myself, but I''m worried that these bastards, who can''t find a breakthrough in me, will attack my woman. I just wanted to see if I could find a bodyguard for my woman. Of course, my guards could have done the job. However, sometimes in some places, it is still inconvenient. That''s why I said that I want to find a girl with better skills to stay with my woman. Don''t let Little Japan succeed. " Li Yun understood Fang Lang''s meaning as soon as he heard it, that is, the gun-toting guards around Fang Lang were in charge of the periphery, and her daughter only needed to follow her closely. This job is not dangerous. He believes that with his daughter''s skills, this kind of work is not difficult at all. What surprised Li Yunze the most was that the other party actually said that he was targeted by the Japanese because he had killed too many Japanese. Looking at the foreigner guards around Fang Lang, Li Yun became a little confused. Fang Lang saw the other party''s expression and understood that the other party didn''t know what he was talking about killing the Japanese. smiled and said: "Mr. Li may not know me, my name is Fang Lang, and I am now a colonel officer in the Brazilian Navy. I took my men and participated in the Pacific War. Although I entered the battlefield relatively late, I failed to kill many Japanese on the battlefield. However, as the Osaka occupying army, I took my people and set a few fires in Osaka and Kyoto, Japan. " Fang Lang''s words made Li Yunze and the family behind him, even Lilith and others, all with shocked expressions on their faces. (end of this chapter) Chapter 231: real Kong Fu Chapter 231 Real Kung Fu Fang Lang''s words reminded everyone in the room of what they saw in the news about the fire near the Imperial Palace in Tokyo, Japan. The buddy Xiao Lin who brought everyone here stunned and stammered: "Master Fang, are you talking about the fire near the Japanese Imperial Palace?" Fang Lang didn''t answer the buddy''s question, but just smiled. Instead, he grabbed Lilith''s hand beside him and comforted her. Lilith was obviously frightened by Fang Lang''s words. Fang Lang didn''t expect that this matter would be spread as news by American reporters in the United States. As soon as Fang Lang said that he set fire in Japan, everyone looked at Fang Lang with shocked expressions. "Honey, how do you describe the news you saw in the United States!" Lilith answered Fang Lang''s questions, and said with a shocked expression on her face: "Didn''t the news say that it was done by Japanese soldiers who opposed Japan''s Tianhuang''s surrender?" Fang Lang nodded quickly and said: "That''s right, the Japanese set it on their own, and it has nothing to do with me. The arson I said has nothing to do with this place." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Lilith glared at Fang Lang, not understanding what was going on. She has also experienced war, but she doesn''t have the Virgin Mary to think that Fang Lang should not do this. The other people in the room all had expressions of believe it or not. Li Yunze was very surprised. He didn''t expect that the young man in front of him turned out to be a colonel. And also participated in the Pacific War, although he denied any involvement in this matter in front of his own woman. But Li Yun was sure that the young man in front of him did it. "Mr. Fang, if the Japanese want to attack people around you, I will take charge of this job. Starting today, let my two daughters follow your lover to protect his safety. " Fang Lang didn''t expect Li Yun to be so straightforward, thought for a while and shook his head: "Mr. Li, don''t worry, I came here today mainly because I heard that you are a real Lianjiazi. As I said just now, I am a soldier myself, and I am very interested in fighting skills. So, I want to come over and ask for advice. I dont know about your kung fu. " Fang Lang didn''t know whether to say something well, after all, he didn''t know the rules among people in the world in this era. If one is not good, it will be embarrassing if others mistakenly think that they are here to challenge or kick the gym. Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Li Yun arched his hands and said: "It''s ashamed to say that Li''s body is inherited from his uncle Li Shuwen, and he mainly practices Bajiquan and Daqiang. I dare not say that I have passed it all the way, but I still have seven or eight points of skill. " The name Li Shuwen Fang Lang feels very familiar, although he is not sure how powerful the other party is. However, the name that impresses me should also be a famous person who has left his name in history, and the other party directly reported this name. At least it means that this person has a very high status and status in the martial arts. I don''t know the name of this person, but Fang Lang knows Bajiquan! In my previous life, I heard that "Tai Chi does not go out for ten years, Ba Ji beats people to death every year", although I have never seen it. However, Fang Lang can also draw a conclusion from this sentence, that is, Bajiquan must have quite strong actual combat capabilities. It''s a pity that Fang Lang''s fighters are all soldiers. They have only received fighting training in the army, and there are no real fighting masters. Fang Lang himself learned some boxing skills from his grandfather, so he could only arch his hands and say: "Boy, when I was young, I practiced boxing and kicking with the old man at home for a while. I wonder if I can ask Mr. Li for advice. " Li Yun understood that this was the intention of the other party to test him, and he was not polite, let alone asking his children to do it for him. After all, the person in front of him is not here to kick the gym and ask for trouble. If the younger generation is allowed to take action, it may not appear respectful enough. "I didn''t expect that Mr. Fang''s family has a long history, and he turned out to be a fellow. In that case, how about we go to the inner room to help. " Unexpectedly, the other party wanted to go to the back room with him. Fang Lang quickly realized that the other party was worried that he would lose face in front of his subordinates. The other party''s family members are all here, and it is impossible to do anything to yourself. Fang Lang was not polite, he got up and waved his hands and said: "Please!" After finishing speaking, he waved his hand to signal that everyone does not need to follow in. Li Yunze also spread his hands and pointed to the room: "Please!" Entering the room, it should be a place for patients to lie down and rest. There is only a single bed in the small space. The two stood facing each other, arched their hands together, and Li Yun said very formally: "Cangzhou Baguazhang, Li Yunze, ask for advice!" But Fang Lang doesn''t have any martial arts! I can only learn from the other party, arching my hands and saying: "Fang Lang, who is backward, ask for advice!" People say that asking for advice is polite, but Fang Lang said that asking for advice is really asking for advice. As soon as the voice fell, Fang Lang noticed the aggressive side of the other party. Fang Lang felt that the other party seemed to be transformed into a tiger, and rushed towards him. Fang Lang felt a warning sign in his heart, instinctively dodged sideways, and felt a gust of wind brushing his left shoulder, making the hairs on his body stand on end, which was obviously quite thrilling. Just when Fang Lang was about to thank himself for his quick response, the opponent had already turned into a sweep. Fang Lang stretched out his arms to block, and with just a light touch, Fang Lang felt something was wrong. Because Fang Lang didn''t feel much pain in his arm, but his whole body had been swept up against the wall, holding a breath of foul breath in his chest, and he almost suffocated himself to death. At this moment, Fang Lang only had one feeling. Could this be internal strength? Is there really internal strength in this world? Li Yun saw Fang Lang sticking to the wall, and did not attack again, but looked at Fang Lang with a little surprise. Fang Lang didn''t know the other party, so what was he surprised about. After exhaling the stale breath from his chest, he regained his posture and said: "Come again." After finishing speaking, regardless of the opponent''s reaction, he directly bullied himself and punched the opponent''s neck. It''s a pity that Li Yun didn''t dodge or evade, with his body on one side and his head turned, he escaped Fang Lang''s blow. When Fang Lang was about to change his move, he found that the opponent had crashed into his arms. Didn''t see any movement from the other party, Fang Lang felt as if a bomb exploded in his arms, and was blasted out by the shock wave abruptly. It was pasted again, on the wall just now. This time, it was no longer the tightness in the chest, but, it felt like all the bones in his body were about to fall apart, and he fell directly from the wall to the ground. It took a while to recover. Seeing Li Yunze''s outstretched hand towards him, he grabbed it and was pulled up by the other party. "Mr. Li, is this internal energy? Is there really internal energy in the world?" Li Yun smiled and said: "I don''t know what the inner strength you are talking about is a forceful technique. But I haven''t practiced this well yet. I remember that my uncle leaned against the city wall like I just did, and the bricks on the city wall would break and fall off. " Fang Lang felt that his world view had been refreshed, and what he traveled through would not be a world of high martial arts! "Master Li, are there many experts like you?" Fang Lang is really nervous at this moment. If there are really many masters like this, it''s time to consider changing the development route. "Hehe. Don''t be nervous, Mr. Fang. It''s not easy to practice martial arts. Those who are poor in culture and rich in martial arts have no chance to learn Kung Fu. As far as I know, the masters who can reach my uncle''s level can be counted on one hand. " "What about someone with your skills?" "I''m not very clear about this, but judging from the inheritance between our masters, there should be only thirty or forty people!" Li Yunze''s words finally made Fang Lang let out a long breath. He is afraid that this is a world of high martial arts where masters walk everywhere and there are as many innate talents as dogs. "I don''t know Ling''ai, how much power can I have with you!" Li Yun thought for a while and said: "It''s hard to say how many levels of skills, but it should be no problem for two or three like Shangyi." This is a bit heartbreaking! It''s not very easy to answer the phone! Fang Lang looked embarrassed. At first, he thought that he had learned some boxing skills from his grandfather since he was a child, and he was able to kill the enemy and survive on the battlefield, let alone a master. At least it won''t be too bad. I just found out today that I can''t beat my two little girls. After running his brain at high speed twice, Fang Lang said: "Master Li, do you know if someone like me still has the opportunity to learn your kung fu?" Li Yunze didn''t expect Fang Lang to ask this question suddenly. Looked Fang Lang up and down and said: "You should have practiced basic skills for a while when you were a child, and it is not impossible to practice now. However, you probably dont have that much time to spend on practicing! " Fang Lang rarely meets a real, living martial arts master. This is every boy''s dream, so how can he avoid it? If this opportunity cannot be seized, Fang Lang will regret it to death. "It doesn''t matter, let''s not talk about how far you can practice. As long as there is still a chance to become a master like you, you can''t give up no matter what, right? How about this! I know right now in America, there are people out there looking for trouble with you and your family. I believe that with my ability, I should be able to help you settle this matter. But after all, the United States still does not have many people of its own. I am now immigrating from my hometown to Brazil in large numbers. By then, there will be a large number of Chinese communities and even towns in Brazil. I dont know if you are interested in relocating to Brazil. I dare not say anything else, at least I can guarantee that no one dares to discriminate against us Chinese compatriots in my territory. " Li Yun was taken aback by Fang Lang''s words. "Didn''t you come to find someone to protect your girlfriend?" "This is not a conflict! I think your skill is so good, you should pass it on. Now with the popularity of guns, fewer and fewer people are willing to settle down to practice actual combat kung fu. I think kung fu is not only used to strengthen the body, but also to improve people''s physical fitness and self-confidence. If you are willing, I want to set up a Bajiquan gym in Brazil. Is it okay for you to teach Bajiquan? " Fang Lang thought of it as soon as he came out. It''s a pity that Li Yunze seems to have no interest in opening a museum abroad and accepting apprentices, so he shook his head and said: "If you want to open a museum to accept apprentices, you have to go back to your hometown. If you go abroad to accept apprentices, wouldn''t you hand over the skills of your ancestors to these foreigners? " Fang Lang didn''t expect that Mr. Li would have such traditional thinking. smiled and said: "Master Li, don''t worry, we can only accept Chinese apprentices! I have arranged all the Chinese immigrants in several places, and then I will arrange your boxing gym in our Chinatown. We Chinese belong to a disadvantaged group overseas, so we definitely need some martial arts skills, so we wont be afraid of being bullied by foreigners, right? At the same time, it can also allow the skills of our ancestors to blossom and bear fruit among overseas Chinese. " After Fang Lang''s earnest persuasion, Master Li was finally persuaded by Fang Lang to go to Brazil to open a Baji boxing gym, and Fang Lang will become the big brother of this boxing gym. (end of this chapter) Chapter 232: too big a step Chapter 232 The steps are too big After Fang Lang became Li Yunze''s apprentice, it was naturally inappropriate to hire the master''s daughter as his female bodyguard. After discussing with Li Yunze, Fang Lang finally arranged for the two juniors to study with Lilith in the Department of Medicine of Radcliffe College in Boston. In this way, there is no need to hire junior sisters as bodyguards, and Lilith''s safety can be guaranteed. The reason for the conflict between Master Lis son and white people is also very simple. It is nothing more than a brainless white racist. He saw that Master Lis son Li Xiangang dated a white girlfriend. This made the white supremacist students born as rugby players very dissatisfied. They took the initiative to provoke Li Xiangang many times, and finally violent conflicts broke out. As a result, the strong rugby player lost face in public and had to make up for it in other ways. As a result, Li Xiangang was expelled from the Faculty of Arts. As for the identity of the other party''s family members, they have also been investigated clearly. They are the owners of a winery with a little gang background. It is very simple to let the other party choose to settle down. Fang Lang''s assistant, Ophelia Berg, used a little of the Global Group''s network, and the other party took the initiative to die down. The matter was perfectly resolved without Fang Lang personally coming forward. Even when Fang Jinao of the Hongmen heard that Fang Lang worshiped Li Yunze as his teacher, he immediately met with the gang leader who was making trouble in Chinatown. . So sometimes there are some things that may be a big event for ordinary people, which can force people to risk their lives to gamble. But for those with strength, it is just a word or a look that can solve the problem. Li Yunze''s family also saw Fang Lang''s strength from this incident. Fang Lang is very happy today, not only his girlfriend Lilith came to him, but more importantly, Fang Lang saw the real legendary kung fu. This kept Fang Lang in a state of excitement when he returned to the hotel, and kept sharing with Lilith the legends about martial arts masters he had heard in his previous life. Lilith was very surprised that her man acted like a child. The man in front of him is definitely more real. Fang Lang was naturally extremely satisfied this night. The next afternoon, Miss Ophelia Berger officially notified Fang Lang that she had made an appointment with Mr. Morgan to meet. Because Mr. Morgan is busy with work. The meeting time was set for tomorrow, and the other party took the initiative to invite Fang Lang to have dinner. Fang Lang naturally had no objection to this. I can just take this opportunity to take my girlfriend to wander around the bustling New York. As for the attack that may come at any time, Fang Lang is not worried. It''s not that Fang Lang looked down on the other party. Given the current situation of the Japanese, they were expected to have the courage to make a big noise in New York. Fang Lang borrowed some of their guts, but they didn''t dare. As long as there is no big disturbance, Fang Lang is completely worthy, and the guards around him are not vegetarians. Thomson submachine guns are hidden in the woolen coats one by one, and an MG42 general-purpose machine gun is placed in the trunk of each car. Fang Lang didn''t believe that the opponent could get more powerful firepower than him. The most important thing is that Fang Lang''s current status in the United States is a negotiator representing the Brazilian government in purchasing aircraft carriers in the United States. This is an activity in the United States with a very formal official background, and it is to be protected by the U.S. government. If Fang Lang is attacked in the United States, the U.S. government will also bear unshirkable responsibility. In contrast, the Japanese are now a defeated country, and there is not even an embassy in the United States, let alone activities in the United States with an official background. According to Fang Lang''s estimation, at most, they are some dead but not dead intelligence personnel or consortium lackeys, or even gang organizations. It''s not that Fang Lang looks down on the other party. If the other party really dares to attack Fang Lang blatantly, the other party''s good days in the United States will come to an end. This is also the reason why the other party wanted Richfield to take the blame in the morning. Unfortunately, even if the other party finds such a layer of skin, it is impossible to really escape the investigation. The U.S. government is not stupid. Based on Fang Lang''s understanding of the current assassination methods, the most likely thing is a sniper ambush. But, this is precisely what Fang Lang is least afraid of. Because, the biggest benefit of his rebirth, besides the improvement of his physical fitness, is his super sixth sense, which can even detect danger signals that are not aimed at him. So Fang Lang is not worried that the other party will take action against him. In this way, Fang Lang took Lilith to play in New York for two days, but Lilith was very happy, not because Fang Lang bought him many gifts. The main reason is that the two of them have not been traveling around freely like they are now for a long time. I just feel sorry for the assistant, Ms. Ophelia Berg, who has been with them all the time. Lilith is a very kind-hearted little girl, and she will always take the initiative to pull each other when shopping. This made Ophelia Berg feel very tormented, not that he was jealous, but that the longer he spent with Lilith, the more he felt that Fang Lang was a jerk. Already had such a good girlfriend, and still wanted to molest her, several times she wanted to tell Lilith what the boss had done. However, in order to keep her very well-paid job, she had to resist the urge to inform. Finally, when it was time to make an appointment with Mr. Morgan, the place for dinner was still in the restaurant of the Plaza Hotel. Fang Lang, who had already become acquainted with Mr. Morgan, was obviously much more casual than when he first met. After exchanging pleasantries, the two parties introduced their female companions to each other, and then went straight to the table. "Fang, I''m really sorry. Things have been complicated these two days, so I''m free to have dinner with you tonight." Fang Lang smiled and said: "It''s okay, I can understand. After all, such a big thing really needs to be handled with care." Morgan was taken aback by Fang Lang''s answer, looked at Fang Lang suspiciously and said: "Oh! Fang, what big event are you talking about?" Fang Lang didn''t know if the other party was pretending to be stupid on purpose, or what. However, he didn''t want to make too many detours with the other party. Today he took the initiative to ask Morgan to get the support of the Morgan consortium. After all, for Fang Lang to get a share of the upcoming big changes in the world structure, the strength of Universal Group alone is of course not enough. The Fangyuan Group, which is rooted in Brazil, is even more unnecessary. This big operation led by the United States, of course, is the largest consortium in the United States that can get the biggest cake! As for whether the other party will take me to play, it depends on what price you can pay. "Mr. President was present at Mr. Churchill''s speech in person! Such a statement, is there no support from the Morgan consortium? " Fang Lang said casually while dealing with the food in front of him casually. After listening to Fang Lang''s words, Morgan''s eyes shrank slightly, and soon returned to normal. Fang Lang couldn''t help admiring Fang Lang in his heart. As a large consortium in the United States, the Morgan family must be deeply involved in this kind of thing. But Fang Lang is an outsider. Unexpectedly, he was able to analyze the most important work content of his recent work by relying on the president''s attendance at Churchill''s speech, which made him admire the other party. Smiled, Morgan gave Fang Lang a thumbs up and said: "Fang, can you tell me? What did you hear from Mr. Churchill''s speech?" Fang Lang didn''t mind Morgan''s temptation, and said frankly: "This is very clear! Mr. Churchill has pointed out the political system of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, which will pose a huge threat to our capitalist society. At this time, capitalist societies all over the world should stand together, right? " "Since you all know that this is a huge threat, why do I think you don''t seem to be worried at all?" "Mr. President has already appeared at the speech scene, which means that you big men are aware of this threat, and you will definitely take countermeasures next! What can I worry about? " Morgan felt very helpless for Fang Lang''s expression that the sky was falling and you tall guys were standing up. Shaking his head bitterly, he said: "Mr. Churchill''s words really alerted us all and provided us with ideas for how to deal with it. However, none of us have yet figured out whether it is worth it. The war has just ended, and people are yearning for peace. If at this time, war breaks out with the original allies again because of ideological issues, it is not what we want to see. " From Mr. Morgan''s words, Fang Lang can also draw a conclusion, that is, within the US government, there is no consensus on how to deal with this ideological conflict. Obviously, the world war that has just ended has had a huge impact on everyone, and no one wants to be caught in a new war again. No wonder, the United States did not officially introduce the Truman Doctrine until a year later. It seems that this time I used my foresight to get ahead of the policy. Looking at it this way, I can''t take too big a step! Otherwise, it will be embarrassing if you accidentally pull the egg. "Yeah! We really should avoid war again. Now we should pay more attention to developing the economy, developing people''s livelihood, and getting people''s lives back on track as soon as possible. " "Oh! From this point of view, you don''t think there will be a war, do you?" Morgan heard his subtext from Fang Lang''s tone, which made him a little curious. It''s a pity that Fang Lang didn''t dare to reveal his foresight in front of this kind of task. It would be troublesome if he didn''t catch himself to study. "Whether there will be a war is not something I can decide. To be honest, although I am a soldier, I am not keen on war. So, I don''t want a new world war either. " "Oh! So the purpose of your appointment with me today is to understand our Morgan family''s attitude towards this matter?" Morgan heard Fang Lang express that he did not want a world war, and thought that Fang Lang wanted to learn some insider information from her. "Of course not! The main purpose of my meeting with you today is to discuss the follow-up development of the Richfield Petroleum Exploration Company." Fang Lang, who originally wanted to discuss how to use the European aid plan to make a fortune together, heard from Morgan''s words that the US government obviously does not have this idea yet. Of course he can''t reveal the secrets in advance, or reveal the idea of ??aiding the European economy in advance. When the butterfly effect occurs, all his original foresight will fail, and Fang Lang will cry to death in the toilet. (end of this chapter) Chapter 233: new shareholder Chapter 233 New Shareholders "You are the major shareholder of Richfield Corporation! You can decide how to develop it yourself!" Regarding the future development of Richfield Company, Morgan believes that Fang Lang must have had an idea in his heart, and now he suddenly asks himself to discuss the development of this company. Morgan''s first thought was that this kid was uneasy and kind. So, directly express that I am a minority shareholder, and you decide for yourself. "Mr. Morgan, minority shareholders are also shareholders! You can''t leave the company alone!" How could Fang Lang let go of such a thick thigh! Morgan obviously didn''t expect this guy to use stalking like a child. Although he knew that this guy was acting, he had to smile and said: "Then tell me, what should we, a small shareholder, do so that we have not left the company behind!" Seeing Morgan''s smile, Fang Lang smiled even happier. "Don''t worry! Mr. Morgan, you only need Morgan Bank to grant a loan to Richfield Company, and Richfield Company can be brought back to life." Regarding Fang Lang''s request, Mr. Morgan was noncommittal. After all, providing loans to enterprises is the normal business of the Morgan Family Bank, and there is nothing difficult about it. "It''s just such a small thing, do you need to act like a child?" "So Mr. Morgan, you agree?" Fang Lang said with a look of surprise. Looking at Fang Lang''s expression, Morgan''s heart tightened, and he said quickly: "What do you mean I agree? You need to go to the bank to handle the bank loan business. You need to provide collateral and explain the purpose of the loan. This kind of business behavior, you don''t need to find me at all! " How could Fang Lang not understand that it was because he was happy too early, which woke up the biting fish. He secretly scolded himself for being too anxious. "Didn''t I think that since you are also a shareholder of the company, shouldn''t it be fine to arrange this kind of small business directly with you?" "Your words are nice, and you definitely have no good intentions. Tell me, now that Richfield Company is in your hands, how are you going to develop it! " How could an old fox like Morgan be fooled by the waves? directly exposed Fang Lang. Seeing Morgan asking about the company''s development direction, Fang Lang could only bite the bullet and say: "I''m going to continue spending money exploring the fields in the Prudhoe Bay area." Originally, Fang Lang thought that Morgan would directly raise objections, but unexpectedly, the other party seemed to have expected it and said: "So, the reason you bought this company is to get into the oil business, right?" Regarding this, Fang Lang did not deny it. nodded and said: "Yes." "What about the next step? Can you tell me about it?" This question made Fang Lang a little embarrassed. He couldn''t say that he knew that there was a big oil field in Prudhoe Bay. As long as he dug it out, he would make a fortune! If you really say this, you dont need to think about the loan, and it is more likely that others will withdraw their shares. For a while, his brain was running fast, and the CPU burned Fang Lang''s face a little red, so he finally found a reason and said: I plan to shift the direction of development to South America after straightening out the company. After all, our neighbor Venezuela is a big oil country. When it comes to oil, the first target in many peoples minds is the Middle East countries. Many people ignore that there is another country with huge oil reserves in South America, which is Venezuela. It''s just that the Venezuelan government has a good hand and played poorly. In 1975, Venezuelan President Chvez announced that he would nationalize the country''s oil industry and expel all domestic oil companies from European and American countries. This is understandable, after all, it is normal for one''s own country to control its own country''s resources. But after Venezuela nationalized oil, it was completely hanged on the tree of oil, and did not consider developing other industries at all. Instead, the banknotes exchanged for exporting oil have been turned into high welfare for the country, such as free medical care, free housing, etc. Later, they simply distributed the money directly to the common people. The result of this is that ordinary people dont have to do anything, they just need to lie at home and get money. Agriculture, the main economic pillar industry before the emergence of oil, was directly abandoned. The population began to gather in cities on a large scale, and the ratio of urban population to rural population was as high as nine to one. According to some of our current experts, maybe Venezuela will become the country with the highest happiness index in the world. However, all welfare in Venezuela is based on high oil prices. With the sharp drop in oil prices in the 1980s, Venezuelas high welfare policy like a castle in the sky went bankrupt. Ninety percent of the population stays in the city, not engaged in production, food and drink. After decades of high-welfare upbringing, these people no longer even know how to plant land. The subsequent government even carried out a series of slapstick operations, which led to high government debts, directly from the richest democratic country in South America to one of the poorest countries in the world. In order to preserve his position, the later President Maduro allowed voters to continue to vote for himself, and began to print a large amount of currency to distribute to the people, and at the same time hoped to use currency devaluation to solve inflation. The consequence of this is that the currency depreciates rapidly and loses its original purchasing power. In April 2021, Venezuela even announced the issuance of banknotes with a face value of one million bolivars. The exchange rate between ?? and RMB is about 380,000 bolivars can be exchanged for one dollar. In this case, if the government gives each person 10 million per month, it can only create more millionaires. cannot change the status quo of poverty. Of course, Venezuela has just started at this time, and it is not impossible for Fang Lang to get involved. After all, in South America, no matter if it is an American company background. It is still my relationship with Brazil, and I have a chance to get a share of it. So when Fang Lang''s words came out, Morgan really believed that this was Fang Lang''s real plan. After all, as a South American, it is understandable to focus on South America. At this time, Venezuela is indeed a huge sweet bun in the eyes of Americans. If Fang Lang is really capable of getting a share of Venezuela''s oil industry. Morgan believes that his investment will definitely get rich returns. With such expectations, the loans Fang Lang wanted were minor problems. So how much loan do you want? "How about ten million dollars." Morgan knew that Fang Lang must be holding back something bad, but after hearing the number Fang Lang reported, he was still shocked by his shamelessness. "What? Are you crazy? You paid $10 million to buy this **** Ridgefield company, and now you''re using this **** company to get a $10 million loan from Morgan Bank. " Fang Lang didn''t really expect to be able to borrow 10 million U.S. dollars from Morgan Bank so easily. However, considering that Morgan owns 10% of the shares in Richfield Company, it is definitely much easier to get a loan than ordinary companies outside. The biggest question now is whether the Richfield Company has such a valuable collateral. "What if I told you I''m sure I''ll get oil out of Prudhoe Bay?" "Fang, you have to understand that it is impossible for me to provide you with an unsecured loan for a portion of your expected income. If you can use the Universal Group under your name as a guarantee, then I think this loan application will be very easy to pass. " Fang Lang didn''t understand that the old guy Morgan obviously had bad intentions. "If this is the case, does the Morgan family mind if I introduce new shareholders for our new Global Petroleum Company?" Morgan obviously didn''t expect Fang Lang to have such an idea. In principle, as the largest shareholder, Fang Lang has no problem introducing new shareholders into the company. However, Fang Lang proposed after Morgan refused the loan. Morgan felt that the shareholder Fang Lang wanted to introduce might not be able to deal with his family. Thinking of the industry this company is engaged in, Morgan immediately had his own goal in mind. "Are you going to bring in the Rockefeller family?" It''s not that the Morgan family and the Rockefeller family have enmity, the two can only be said to be in a competitive relationship. During this period, the Morgan family was obviously more powerful. The Rockefeller family really surpassed the Morgan family, and it had to wait until the oil price increased rapidly in the 1970s. Of course, this lead did not last long. With the decline of oil prices in the 1980s and many other reasons, the wealth of the Rockefeller family also slowly declined, and was surpassed by the Morgan family again. However, sometimes the competitive relationship between capitalists is also a shadow of swords and swords, and the progress of the other party means our backwardness. More importantly, the Democratic Party in the United States belongs to the Morgan family, while the Republican Party belongs to the Rockefeller family, although this is not absolute. But on the one hand, it also reflects that the two companies actually have some contradictions. When Morgan thought that Fang Lang wanted to introduce the Rockefeller family, Morgan''s first reaction was to get angry. It didn''t mean that people who did business with the Morgan family couldn''t do business with the Rockefeller family. This situation cannot be avoided. What upset Morgan was that he felt that Fang Lang was using the Rockefeller family to put pressure on the Morgan family. So, when he asked this sentence, his tone obviously became less friendly. Seeing Mr. Morgan''s reaction, Fang Lang knew that if he really said that he wanted to introduce the Rockefeller family, then the friendship he and the Morgan family had built with great difficulty would collapse in an instant. At this time, Fang Lang could only admit that this was what he thought in his heart even if he was beaten to death. "Mr. Morgan misunderstood me. No matter how dizzy I am, I wouldn''t do such a thing, would I?" Actually, in Fang Lang''s heart, he really considered introducing the Rockefeller family. After all, the oil industry is the main position of other families! As a Brazilian, he controls the largest oil field in the United States in the future. No matter how he thinks about it, Fang Lang feels like he is playing with fire. Although this company has 10% of the shares of the Morgan family, how could this insignificant 10% be covered up? What about my own 90% shareholding ratio? The most important thing is that Fang Lang thinks that through this company, establishing a connection with the two largest consortiums in the United States will be very beneficial to the future development of his business in the United States. At least no one would dare to easily target their own business. Regarding Fang Lang''s sophistry, Morgan was not so easily fooled by him. asked directly: "Then who do you want to become one of the new shareholders of this company?" (end of this chapter) Chapter 234: Enemy track Chapter 234 Enemy Tracks "No, no, it''s not who I want to make a new shareholder of this company, but us. Understand? Don''t forget, you are also one of the shareholders of this company. " Fang Lang has learned to be good, at least until he has the strength to not care about the feelings of the Morgan family, he had better be sensible. "How many shares are you going to spend to introduce new shareholders!" "About ten percent!" Actually, Fang Lang didn''t want to transfer the shares at this time. As long as the new company develops oil in Prudhoe Bay and successfully calculates the oil reserves, then the company''s stock price will definitely soar to a terrifying level. But it also means that Fang Lang''s identity as an outsider will be particularly conspicuous, and then don''t think about whether the Morgan family will protect him. It is enough friends of the Morgan family not to strike first. After such a short time just now, Fang Lang has already figured out a lot of things. He and the capitalists could have made friends, but only talked about benefits. Once the project in my hand really pays off, it will change from a broken company that no one cares about to a fragrant steamed bun that everyone wants to bite. "You first exchange 10% of the shares for 10 million US dollars?" "If I can use this 10% of the shares in exchange for my absolute dominance over this company, I don''t need money." It''s not that Fang Lang is too timid, but that Fang Lang''s birth status determines his status in the United States. If he is a British or American, will he not be able to keep the company after the oil is dug out? The government behind Fang Lang will naturally support Fang Lang, but behind Fang Lang is Brazil. In the eyes of big American capitalists, such an identity is a leek that can be harvested at any time. This is the law of the jungle pursued by the Western world, and the law of the jungle is the truth. What kind of character is Morgan? As soon as Fang Lang said this, he understood what Fang Lang meant. "You are so optimistic about the future of this company? No, if the future of the company is in Venezuela, you don''t have to worry about anything at all. You can''t be sure that you can find a big oil field from Prudhoe Bay! " Fang Lang didn''t expect Morgan to guess this so quickly. Maybe my performance today is indeed a bit abnormal. But it is impossible for Fang Lang to answer directly and affirmatively, so he can only say: "How is this possible, I''m just planning for a rainy day." But Fang Lang''s abnormal performance today is in Morgan''s eyes, and the more he looks at it, the more reasonable he feels. Many things came out of my mind naturally. "I will pay 10 million to buy 39% of the company''s shares, so that you are still the major shareholder. I guarantee that no one can take any interest in this company from us. " Morgan''s decisiveness was unexpected. He was just scolding Fang Lang for being crazy, so he thought of using this company with a market value of 10 million as a mortgage for 10 million, thinking of directly expressing that he would invest 10 million and acquire 39% of the shares . In this way, the Morgan consortium, a global oil company, will own 49% of the shares, making it the second largest shareholder. Since the other party has already expressed his position in this way, Fang Lang knows that if he shirks it, it will make people look down upon him. Gritting his teeth distressedly, he said: "It''s okay to sell 39% of your shares, but ten million is not enough." At this time, Morgan was even more sure that Fang Lang must be sure. Obviously, the oil field project in the hands of this company is definitely a big treasure. Otherwise, a smart person like Fang Lang would not and would not dare to open his mouth to the Morgan family lion. As for the consequences of deceiving the Morgan family, Fang Lang absolutely cannot afford it. "Then how much do you want?" Fang Lang looked at Morgan in front of him, wondering if he should open his mouth like a lion, after all, this oil field is really too big. But after thinking about it again and again, Fang Lang gritted his teeth, suppressed the greed in his heart and said: "I want to gain the friendship of the Morgan family, the friendship between families." Morgan was obviously taken aback, hesitated before saying: "Are you serious? I don''t know where your confidence comes from, but you have to understand that if you deceive me, the consequences will be very serious." Morgan didn''t expect Fang Lang''s appetite to be so big. Of course what he was talking about was not a personal friendship with Morgan. Rather, the friendship of the entire Morgan family. Having the friendship of the Morgan consortium in the United States means that Fang Lang will become unimpeded in the political and business circles of the United States. Because the largest consortium in the United States endorsed him behind this. This kind of friendship is obviously not easy to obtain, and it can even be said that it cannot be obtained with money. That''s why Morgan confirmed with Fang Lang again. "Mr. Morgan, of course I dare not joke about this kind of thing. Let me tell you this! I have absolute certainty that this will be the largest oil field in the contiguous United States. How much do you think the value of this oil field will be. " Without Fang Lang''s elaboration, Morgan certainly understands what it means if this oil field is really the largest oil field in the continental United States, as Fang Lang said. Especially Morgan, who has just experienced the world war, understands the meaning of locality better. So, he said without hesitation: "10 million to buy 39% of the shares from you. You can start prospecting now, once what you say is true. I assure you, you will gain the friendship of the Morgan family. " Although the other party stated that they will not be able to gain the friendship of the other party''s family until the situation is confirmed. But Fang Lang didn''t care, after all, now he was a bit of an empty-handed white wolf. It is impossible for the other party to believe in themselves based on a few words of their own. If this is the case, Fang Lang will have to consider whether this friendship is really valuable. Fang Lang stretched out his right hand, and Morgan stretched out his hand to hold Fang Lang together. A verbal agreement between the two men is reached directly. As for the procedures for the share transaction, there is no rush, and it will not be too late to do it tomorrow. There are two ladies at the dining table who did not participate in the chat between the two, waiting for their concern! Next, everyone stopped discussing business affairs, but started discussing romance with the ladies. This dinner lasted until nine o''clock in the evening. After saying goodbye to Mr. Morgan, Fang Lang has been thinking about it. Money is definitely secondary to what benefits the friendship of the Morgan family can bring to him. Not to mention anything else, the benefits that Fang Lang can bring to Fang Lang cannot be measured just by the political influence of the other family in the US government. For example, if the procurement of the aircraft carrier this time is operated through the Morgan family, Fang Lang believes that now he should be able to drive the aircraft carrier home directly. The Morgan family only needs to introduce themselves to a few American presidents, and their political influence after returning to Brazil will increase to a level that is difficult for others to match. Not to mention other benefits. For example, if you want to import some advanced technology from the United States, with the endorsement of the Morgan family, not to mention easy, at least it will be twice the result with half the effort. Calculated in this way, maybe the part of the shares in the oil company that I gave up will actually earn more! Fang Lang doesn''t care about whether Mr. Morgan has the right to decide to give it. Because, even if the Morgan family is unwilling to come forward, Mr. Morgan''s personal influence is enough for Fang Lang to get what he wants. Lilith looked at the man beside her with admiration in her heart. He is just the daughter of an ordinary small businessman, and she was with the other party at the beginning, although it was mainly because both parties saw the right way. But there are also people who want to find a backer because of the difficult situation at home. I never imagined that now I would have the opportunity to have dinner with members of the top American consortium, and even become friends with the wife of a big shot. The other party even invited me to a reception held at the other party''s home. This is not the most important thing. What really satisfies Lilith is that no matter how the other party''s status changes, her feelings for her remain unchanged. The gentleness of the oriental man made her a little unable to extricate herself. Just when Lilith was looking at Fang Lang in a daze. She felt Dao Fang Lang''s body tense suddenly, before he asked what happened. I heard Fang Lang''s voice coming from my ear. "Stop, pull over!" The vehicle "squeaked" a sudden brake, pulled over and stopped, and the **** vehicle behind it also followed and stopped. Lilith thought that Fang Lang had forgotten something in the restaurant just now. hurriedly asked: "Honey, what''s the matter? Did you forget something in the restaurant?" Hearing Lilith''s question, Fang Lang patted the other party''s palm in the palm of his hand and said: "No, don''t worry, the little mouse I was waiting for is finally here." Before Lilith could react, the car in front also stopped, reversed the car, and parked with the car on the side. Because Qi Qingshan and Zhuang Xintian are not around, the one in charge of his security work is a squad leader under Zhuang Xintian. When I came to the United States from Germany, I didn''t expect that the Japanese would think of using Richfield''s name to make things happen. So there are not many guards around Fang Lang now, that is, two shifts of soldiers guard in shifts. Now following the car to protect is a squad of soldiers. The squad leader is a young man of Brazilian descent with darker skin. He is also a veteran who participated in the World War and has received special training organized by Fang Lang. At this time, he was sitting in Fang Lang''s car, in the co-pilot position. Hearing what Fang Lang said to Lilith, he immediately understood what Fang Lang meant. The spirit immediately became tense. "Boss, do we need to reverse the car and change the road." The squad leader is very clear that his task is to protect the safety of the chief, not rush out to kill the enemy. So, the first reaction after hearing that the boss found an enemy was to take a detour to stay away from danger. Of course Fang Lang knew that this was the right choice. However, what he thought was that there is no reason to guard against thieves for a thousand days. I cant hide away every time! In this way, I am safe, but the morale of the soldiers will also be affected by then! More importantly, the other party always has no chance to do something, not to mention whether they will give up their difficult goal and attack their own family members. After I want to use them to attack myself, I can''t take measures in the United States! You can''t call the police and say that you suspect someone is going to attack you! This kind of influence is not big enough! For Fang Lang, who likes to make big things, it is completely meaningless for the American police to deal with the enemies on the surface without pain or itching. The black hand behind the scenes will easily take the opportunity to hide, so that he can''t find the other party. After the limelight passes, they will come out again to do things again. Fang Lang doesn''t have so much time to play hide-and-seek with each other. (end of this chapter) Chapter 235: plan Chapter 235 Will plan to plan The sudden stop of the convoy obviously attracted the attention of many people. The danger that Fang Lang felt just now came from the next street. But as the convoy stopped, Fang Lang discovered that not far in front of him, a car parked on the side of the road also had obvious malice. Obviously, he hadn''t entered their ambush circle and stopped suddenly, which completely disrupted the opponent''s plan. Fang Lang took out the binoculars and continued to look around. Soon, Fang Lang discovered three more problems. According to the distribution of these dangerous locations, Fang Lang has already judged the opponent''s ambush plan. In the binoculars, at least four to five gunmen can be hidden in a car parked on the side of the street in the next block. Across the street where the vehicle is parked, the sense of crisis coming from upstairs should be a sniper. There are also gunmen hidden in the cafe downstairs. As for the number of gunmen, there is no way to judge. The vehicle parked not far in front of him should be the person who followed behind and was responsible for launching the attack from behind. Normally speaking, there should be a person responsible for blocking traffic in front. It may be due to the relatively long distance. Fang Lang has not found anyone who will carry out this plan for the time being. Based on these Fang Lang, it is completely possible to deduce the opponent''s ambush plan. It should be that the people in the cars on the side of the road on the next block attacked first. Regardless of whether Fang Lang can be killed or not, as long as there is chaos, everyone will be forced to get off the car. Give the rest of the enemies a chance to find themselves. At this time, the gunman in the cafe on the left of the road rushed out, causing maximum damage to his security team and himself. The sniper upstairs must also be targeting himself specifically. Even if they can escape, the killer in the car that follows them will also shoot. He is not afraid of killers, what he is afraid of is that someone like a terrorist will launch a car bomb or something like a terrorist attack. You can''t face such an attack directly, you can only find a way to avoid it. Fortunately, today''s enemies obviously have not learned this attack plan. If an ordinary person encounters today''s fatal situation, it may really be cool. But Fang Lang''s sixth sense once again exerted a magical effect. Now Fang Lang feels that this is no longer a sixth sense, this is simply a big prophecy. What makes Fang Lang strange is, how did they determine their identities? If someone is following you, you will definitely be able to find out. But I didn''t notice the situation of being followed at all. After pulling the vehicle to the side just now, I didn''t find any abnormal vehicles behind. Since no one has been followed, how can the other party be sure to attack him accurately? It is also impossible to have traitors in your team. Since you can easily find out, if you have a sixth sense of hostility or malice towards yourself, it is impossible for people in your team to hide. Now the entire convoy is parked on the side of the road, making the gunmen who were in charge of the finish line very nervous, worried that they might have been exposed. However, because no one in the convoy got out of the car, everyone was confused for a while. Don''t understand what''s going on. This is the preventive measure of the Fang Lang team. All models are unified, and outsiders cannot tell which car Fang Lang is in. If you want to launch an attack, you will easily miss the auxiliary vehicle. In this situation, Fang Lang knew that there was an ambush ahead, so it was impossible for Fang Lang to break in directly. Besides, Lilith is still in the car, Fang Lang will not take any risks. Looking outside the road, the vehicle happened to be parked in front of a bar. With a move in his heart, Fang Lang said directly to the security squad leader in the co-pilot seat: "Notify everyone to get off the bus, let''s sit in the bar first." After receiving the order from the officer, the squad leader said without hesitation: "Yes, sir." Then he opened the car window, stretched his hand out of the window and made a few gestures. The people in the car began to get out of the car in an orderly manner, and two people were separated to enter the bar to check the situation. Wait until the safety is confirmed before notifying Fang Lang and others to get off the car. After getting out of the car, Fang Lang glanced at it inadvertently. The vehicle in front of which the suspected gunman was riding had recorded the other party''s license plate. After walking into the bar, Fang Lang glanced at the vehicle he was waiting for, his eyes fixed, and he finally understood how the other party confirmed his identity. Because I don''t have a special car in the United States, I use the vehicles of the hotel where I live. In addition to the same style, these vehicles have an obvious difference from other vehicles. That is, there is an obvious hotel logo pattern on all the bodywork, which is very conspicuous. Fang Lang who entered the bar didn''t come to relax, so he just found a small table near the door and sat down. Lilith looked very nervous, holding Fang Lang''s hand tightly all the time, Fang Lang could even feel her hand trembling slightly. Fang Lang looked at the nervous Lilith, smiled and said: "Don''t worry, we have found their whereabouts, and they have no chance." As she spoke, she gave Lilith a big hug. Although Lilith didn''t understand how Fang Lang found out about each other. However, since Fang Lang said that he had found the other party, Lilith didn''t doubt it, but said with a trembling voice: "Then what should we do now! Should we call the police?" At first, I was still thinking about **** these enemies with the least casualties of my own people. Lilith''s words really reminded Fang Lang that this is New York! Since someone wants to do something in New York, they should naturally let the police deal with it! Why do you have to end it yourself? But if the police arrived, it is estimated that these people would not do anything. After thinking about it in his mind, Fang Lang used the bar''s phone to make two outgoing calls. After making some arrangements, he sat quietly at the bar and listened to music while drinking with Lilith. And in the small car not far in front of his convoy, the five gunmen who had been sitting in the car couldn''t do it anymore. "Mike, this kid must have discovered something!" "Probably not, it looks like this kid is going to have fun in this bar." "These rich people are like this, if I have this much money, I will never go home without getting drunk every day." "Then what should we do, should we follow up and see?" "What are you looking at, there are so many bodyguards, what should we do if we are found close to him?" "Yes, we''d better stick to the plan." "Tell me, what is this guy''s identity? I see that the bodyguards around him seem to be not simple characters! This task will not be any trouble! " "You don''t care what his identity is. We are not locals. After finishing this ticket, we just take the money and leave. Who knows that we did it." "I also think that this guy''s identity should not be simple, otherwise no one would pay such a high price to find us from Texas." "It doesn''t matter who he is, a yellow-skinned monkey, how big a person he can be, just kill him and let''s escape overnight." "Then should we inform the people who are in ambush ahead?" "What are you telling them for! After this guy finishes drinking, he will naturally come out and go back to the hotel to rest. As long as he returns to the hotel, he must pass by here. " What they didn''t notice was that just after their target Fang Lang entered the bar, many people came to the bar one after another. About an hour later, the door of the bar was opened, and a group of strong men in black suits got into the cars behind them one by one. They even noticed that a young man of Asian descent was being carried into one of the cars. Immediately afterwards, the vehicle left the bar entrance and drove towards the hotel. When everyone saw the target finally appeared, they hurriedly drove to keep up. The vehicle following behind the convoy had its turn signal on all the way, turning left for a while and turning right for a while. But the vehicle kept going straight along the street, causing the vehicle behind him to complain, thinking that the other party''s turn signal was malfunctioning. Soon, the convoy passed an intersection and entered the next block. Just as the vehicle with the malfunctioning turn signal passed the intersection, a truck rushed out of an alley in the street ahead, blocking the road ahead. Amidst the sound of rapid brakes, the four doors of a car parked on the side of the road were suddenly pushed open, and five strong men in black suits came out in a file. The Thomson submachine gun in his hand was pointed at, and the several cars blocked by the truck were fired in bursts. The expected counterattack did not come. After the door was opened, a group of embarrassed figures jumped out of the car, and someone dragged out a drunk-looking Asian from one of the cars. A few gun-wielding men rushed out of the cafe on the other side. They were all in black suits, carrying Thomson submachine guns, and covered their faces with black triangular cloth to cover their appearance. Facing the figure who just jumped out of the car in embarrassment, it was a shot, especially the Asians who were supported by others were given special attention. By the dim light of the street lamps, everyone could clearly see blood flowers blooming on the body of the Asian man. The plan went smoothly beyond imagination. The performance of these guards made people speechless, and there was basically no resistance. The convoy of five cars was cleaned up. When the five people got out of the small car that was about to finish up, they found that all of them had fallen into a pool of blood. Everyone looked at each other, dumbfounded for a while. A man glanced at your humanity lying in a pool of blood and said: "This money is too easy to earn!" But he had just finished speaking, before anyone answered. A loud shout came from the dark alley: "This is the New York police, everyone put down their weapons, you are surrounded." Immediately after that was the sound of clattering footsteps, apparently there were quite a few people surrounding the place. There was also a piercing siren sound from a distant intersection. The situation changed at a speed beyond everyone''s expectations. The people who were confirming the results of the battle in the middle of the road were surrounded by groups before they understood what happened. Those who dare to commit such a big case in the downtown area of ??New York are certainly not easy people. I saw one of them shouting: "We''ve been betrayed, it''s a trap." Then the gunshots rang out, and the gunmen used the cover of vehicles on the road to shoot at the police. Under the dim streetlights, the flames from the muzzle of the gun were particularly dazzling. Gunshots like firecrackers resounded through the night sky. New York, which could only hear a gunshot occasionally, was completely sleepless tonight. The neighbors in the roadside houses turned off the lights one after another, locked the doors and windows, and the hostesses took out their weapons and guarded behind the door, preparing for the accident. The emergency calls of the New York Police Department went off in an instant. (end of this chapter) Chapter 236: Stealing chickens is not enough to lose money Chapter 236 Although it is a free America, it is normal for someone to set off two firecrackers every day to add to the fun. But the noise of the firecrackers tonight was so loud that many veterans who had retired from the battlefield were not sure whether they had returned to the front line or whether the Germans had entered New York. The reporters swarmed like sharks smelling blood. For a while, the entire street was surrounded by water. The target that was supposed to be attacked, under the protection of a group of guards, changed into a vehicle deployed overnight by the Global Group, and quietly merged into the traffic flow. "Honey, those people" Lilith''s trembling voice rang in Fang Lang''s ears. Fang Lang knew who she was referring to. Perhaps, in Lilith''s mind at this moment, Fang Lang felt a little cruel. Knowing that there was an ambush ahead, he even found someone to replace him and others to enter the enemy''s ambush circle. Patted Lilith on the shoulder. "These people were found by the FBI themselves, and we have no way of knowing their identities. But their sacrifice was not in vain. " Fang Lang can''t be blamed for being cold-blooded, he was the one who planned to lure the enemy into action. However, the person who actually implemented the plan was arranged by Jefferson of Shatta Company. The price Fang Lang paid was one hundred thousand dollars, and he didn''t care who the money would end up in. The request he gave was that the FBI must find the black hand hiding behind the scenes, not the scapegoat on the bright side. If the specific identity information of the mastermind behind the scenes can be found, Fang Lang will give out another $100,000. This is the benefit of capitalist countries. As long as there is money, there is nothing that cannot be solved. If there is, it means that the money you gave is not enough. Originally, Fang Lang was not familiar with law enforcement agencies such as the United States. It would definitely be inappropriate to ask Morgan for help for such a trivial matter. This time make your partner underestimate your strength. And the only person in my hands who may be familiar with these law enforcement agencies is Mr. Jefferson, the general manager of Shata Company. Things were as expected by Fang Lang. When Fang Lang called Jefferson, the other party directly stated that Fang Lang only needed to pay attention to his own safety, and ignored other things. I thought Jefferson would arrange for the police to take over. As a result, Fang Lang didn''t know that the other party turned out to be the FBI until the other party arrived. Sure enough, the people who can be elected by so many powerful shareholders to serve as the general manager of the arms company are not simple people. This kind of ability to reach the sky with hands and eyes made Fang Lang couldn''t help but look at him a few times. "Then can these people who want to attack you be caught? There will be no next time! " It seems that Fang Lang is more important in Lilith''s heart, and she hasn''t been sad for a long time because of a group of innocent top-up people. Rubbing Lilith''s head, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Whether there will be a next time, I don''t know. But the person who launched the attack this time should not think about it. " If the police simply arrest the targets that Fang Lang suspects, not to mention whether they can be caught, even if they catch these ambush people, the effect will not be very good. However, going through all the scripts of the other party in this way now has a huge impact, which is simply not comparable to directly arresting people. Why is the FBI willing to implement Fang Lang''s plan? Fang Lang believes that money is only part of the reason. More importantly, the greater the impact of this matter, the more benefits and credits obtained after cracking the case. Compared with catching a few attempted assassination gunmen, the credit for uncovering a serious terrorist attack and arresting all the murderers is greater, and there is almost no choice. What''s more, the target of the attack is still an officer from a friendly country who came to the United States to purchase arms. The influence of this incident will be further amplified. And the detection of this case did not require much effort at all. Because, the target already knew who was going to attack him, and even when, where and what kind of action was launched, he had already notified the FBI clearly. In this case, if the FBI can''t find out the mastermind behind the scenes, then there is no need for this unit to exist, and the direct disbandment is their proper destination. The question Fang Lang was thinking about now was how the enemy knew his whereabouts. If he followed him all the way, Fang Lang didn''t believe he couldn''t find it. It is not difficult to find out which hotel he lives in, but not many people know that he had dinner with Mr. Morgan today. It is his assistant Ophelia Berg who is in charge of making an appointment with Mr. Morgan, and it is unlikely that the news will leak from her. Mr. Morgan''s side is also less likely to leak. Since the person responsible for this matter is Little Richfield, the person who revealed Fang Lang''s whereabouts must have contact with Richfield. This is not to say that Little Richfield has such great ability and connections. Rather, if he is to take the blame, the clues must be related to him, and the chain of evidence will be complete. As for whether the other party will have other clues to obtain their whereabouts, it doesn''t matter. What they want to use must be clues that can have a relationship with Little Richfield. The people around me who can have a relationship with Little Richfield are the few people from the original Richfield Company. The most likely thing is that the three Reyel who came to the company to visit him back then. Thinking of this, Fang Lang has a bottom line in his heart. The mood also gradually relaxed, no matter what it is, the most fearful thing is the unknown. Once the mind is entangled in some incomprehensible things, it is difficult to understand the thoughts and relax the mood. As long as you think it through in your heart, you will naturally relax. There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, when the FBI agents went to the hotel to take notes for Fang Lang, Fang Lang told the other party his suspect and ignored him. This incident caused a lot of commotion, according to what Jefferson reported to Fang Lang later. FBI quickly found the man behind the incident - the Japanese Black Dragon Society. At first, Black Dragon would refuse to admit that this matter had something to do with them, because all the evidence pointed to Richfield, and it had nothing to do with the Japanese. The killer came from Little Richfield''s hometown - Texas. The person who provided the killer with Fang Lang''s whereabouts was Zuel Swan, who was originally in charge of logistics and equipment management at Richfield. As for the motive for the murder, it is even more obvious, and there is no need to investigate the conflict between the two. According to the confession of the surviving killer, the boss who paid was also Richfield Jr. No matter where you look at this matter, it has nothing to do with the Japanese. And the only one who can connect this matter with the Japanese is Richfield, who can''t see anyone alive or dead. If it was not known from the very beginning that Little Richfield was missing on the Japanese territory, no one would have thought that this incident would be planned by the Japanese. Now that there is a target of suspicion, all the evidence that seems to be seamlessly provided by God has become less credible. The FBI is still very motivated to take money to do things, and more importantly, the impact of this matter is very huge. If it is really an American who initiates the assassination of military officers from friendly countries, it will also cause some troubles for the US government diplomatically. And if it is Japan, the defeated country, this action was organized and planned. can save the United States from these troubles. Therefore, no matter from which aspect, the FBI needs to implement the relationship between this matter and Japan. When a powerful sovereign country wants to seriously investigate the whole story of a matter, it cannot be hidden. Because, as long as the Japanese participated, they would definitely leave traces. Soon, the head of the Black Dragon Society in New York and all members of the Black Dragon Society were arrested. As the subordinates confessed the hiding place of Little Richfield, the matter had already come to light. Although, when the FBI found Little Richfield, he was already a cold corpse. According to the confessions of his subordinates, the head of the Black Dragon Society in New York had to confess that the attack was revenge for Fang Lang''s arson in Japan. There was no sign of Sumitomo''s house during the whole process. Because it is impossible for the Japanese to let the Americans know that they have hidden treasures. If the Americans know that Fang Lang stole the treasure from Sumitomo''s house, don''t say whether the United States will go to Fang Lang to recover it. The other major financial groups alone will be implicated, and it is very likely that the Americans will find their treasures. This is a consequence that the Japanese absolutely cannot accept. Regarding the accusation that the Black Dragon Club set fire to Fanglang in Japan, the Americans directly scoffed. Compared to the suspicion of the Japanese without evidence, the Americans believed more in the evidence found by the U.S. occupying forces at the scene of the attack. The Japanese''s behavior of retaliating against the officers of the Japanese occupation army aroused strong dissatisfaction in the United States. With the funding of a certain capitalist, many retired American soldiers and people were organized and held protests and demonstrations for several days in a row, expressing that they would severely punish the Japanese who launched the war. And expressed strong dissatisfaction with the tolerance shown by the Japanese overlord MacArthur on the Japanese issue, and once called on MacArthur to step down. The U.S. government had to increase the punishment for the attackers. Even MacArthur in Japan had to tighten the management authority that had just been delegated to the Japanese government. Of course, when these subsequent things happened, Fang Lang had already left the United States, brought the aircraft carrier advisory team formed by General Clark, and returned to Brazil. Start to build the crew organization structure of the first aircraft carrier under his command. Since the US aircraft carrier advisory group has arrived in Brazil, the Brazilian Navy, as the host, of course wants to express its welcome. So when Fang Lang and others arrived at the Natal Naval Base by plane, General Crook, Chief of Staff of the Brazilian Navy, was already waiting at the airport to greet him. The welcome ceremony was very grand. After all, the head of the advisory team is a retired US Navy rear admiral. After Fang Lang gave a brief introduction to both parties, he quietly retreated behind the scenes. After all, Fang Lang has already eaten the biggest benefit, so there is no need to compete with Mr. Chief of Staff for the limelight. As the chief of staff of the naval base, de la Torre followed Fang Lang to report the current situation of the base. "Boss, the Ministry of the Army recently dispatched more than 2,000 soldiers, and Duarte is already organizing training. His military rank can only be a regimental commander at most, but now the Ministry of the Navy has directly raised the establishment of our Marine Corps to a brigade. Could it be that someone has taken a fancy to the position of brigade commander? " Hearing what de la Torre said, Fang Lang narrowed his eyes, and looked at the Chief of Naval Staff who was chatting with General Clark not far away. (end of this chapter) Chapter 237: Someone is going to steal the tower Chapter 237 Someone wants to steal the tower Fang Lang understands that his First Fleet is a very attractive fat, and many people want to take a bite. The high-level military will definitely prevent the First Fleet from becoming its own private army, and will desperately mix sand into it. Fang Lang does not object to someone mixing sand into it. Because, from the beginning to the end, he never thought of leading the army to rebel, as long as he has the control of this army, and there are some other people''s eyeliners, he doesn''t mind. However, at the beginning, the expansion of the Marine Corps to 2,000 people was a reward for supporting President Dutra. I have two tank landing craft provided by the US military under my command. If I don''t give myself enough soldiers, these two landing craft will not be able to play any role at all. What''s more important is that when Fang Lang commanded the marines to occupy the airport and the broadcasting building when he helped President Dutra take office, Fang Lang felt the shortcomings of the lack of marine forces. That''s why these two thousand marines appeared. I didn''t expect that when I, the commander of the First Fleet who always left behind military affairs, went to purchase advanced aircraft carriers for Brazil, someone would make a small move in his home. This is because the tiger doesn''t show his power, and someone treats him as a sick cat! "Did you hear anything?" Fang Lang agreed with de la Torre''s suspicion that someone had taken a fancy to the command of the Marine Corps. After all, there is no one in the Marine Corps of the First Fleet who is qualified to serve as brigade commander. Because the rank of the brigade commander must be at least a colonel. And the commander-in-chief with the highest rank in the entire First Fleet, Guan Lang, is only a colonel. Even if an advanced aircraft carrier is secured for the Brazilian Navy this time, it is only possible that the Ministry of the Navy may promote his rank to major general. If a colonel officer is really transferred from outside, he will be responsible for managing this newly formed Marine Corps. At that time, there will be a colonel officer other than him in the First Fleet. Maybe when Fang Lang is often away from the base, this colonel officer will gradually become the supreme commander of the First Fleet. Maybe there will be a transfer order to transfer Fang Lang to the Navy Headquarters, and this person will take over as the commander of the First Fleet as a matter of course. In this way, all Fang Lang''s efforts for the construction of the First Fleet have been made wedding dresses for others. Thinking of this, Fang Lang couldn''t help but sweat from behind. Regarding Fang Lang''s question, de la Torre could only shake his head helplessly. He had no channel to listen to this kind of high-level game. "Does Sirio Reich have any relevant intelligence information?" Della Torre knew that the Sirio Leitch that Fang Lang mentioned was a member of the Intelligence Bureau under Fang Lang''s control, and he is now the chief of the Second Division of the Logistics Department of the First Fleet. "I haven''t received any relevant information from him. However, I have read the intelligence reported by him, and it seems that all the intelligence information is concentrated in Natal and our First Fleet, and there is no information about the headquarters. It should be that the intelligence network has not been expanded to the headquarters. " At this time, Fang Lang could only shake his head helplessly. It seems that he will have to stay in the army more in the future, otherwise, someone might want to steal the house. Now he is really curious about who is so brave. He dared to attack his troops without communicating with the chief officer of the troops. No matter what the final result is, this person or this force will become his political opponent in Brazil, the kind who will never die. The current Fang Lang is no longer the little transparent one without background. Fang Lang''s eyes flashed coldly, he nodded to De La Torre and said: "I see, I will handle this matter." After communicating with de la Torre, Fang Lang put on a smile again, and stepped forward to chat with General Clark and General Crook. It seems to be completely unaffected by the news just received. It was not easy for people to arrange the American advisory group to rest in the dormitory area of ????the naval base, so Fang Lang had the opportunity to sit in his office with General Crook. Before Fang Lang could speak, General Crook had already said: "It seems that you already know. This matter is more complicated, and it is not from the original intention of our Admiralty." After finishing speaking, he picked up the cigar on the table and trimmed it. Fang Lang knew what the other party was talking about. It seems that the other party came to welcome General Clark in name today, and another purpose may be to communicate with Fang Lang about this matter. Even General Clark said that this matter is more complicated. It seems that Fang Lang really can''t directly refuse the appointment of the Marine Corps officer. "I don''t know who is the big man with such great ability?" Fang Lang also picked up a cigar and trimmed it like General Crook, speaking in a flat tone. "Speaking of which, this person is still your comrade-in-arms, or your original chief. He was the head of the third regiment of the Brazilian Expeditionary Army. During the war, he was promoted to colonel due to his military exploits. However, the original Third Regiment of the Army was just an ordinary infantry regiment. There is no suitable position for him in the tank division formed by the Army this time. Isnt it just right that you want to form the Marine Corps! Considering that your First Fleet has two tank landing ships, your Marine Corps will definitely have armored forces in the future. The opinion of the Ministry of War is that all armored forces in the Brazilian army should be under the command of the army. Plus you also know that the current president is the original Secretary of the Army, and our Navy Department does not have the ability to say no. " Isnt this **** the same as Japan and the United States? All involve conflicts between the army and the navy. General Crook''s meaning is also very clear. In this game, the army has an absolute advantage. Even the president is from the army, so the navy can only admit defeat because its arms cannot twist its thighs. "Who is that, Mr. Rivaldo Granma, Lieutenant Colonel who only knows how to let soldiers charge desperately and doesn''t take human life seriously?" "Yes, but now he''s a colonel." Fang Lang has really heard of this Colonel Rivaldo Granma. After all, he is also from the army. In Fang Lang''s memory, this officer was the head of the expeditionary army. The casualties of his subordinates are the largest among all troops. Because the Brazilian army has no actual combat experience. Therefore, the command ability of each army commander in the early stage of the war is hard to describe. But at least everyone has learned how to avoid excessive damage after paying a certain amount of casualties in the early stage. But this Lieutenant Colonel Rivaldo Granma is a different kind. When he launches an attack, he doesn''t care about the casualties of his soldiers at all. He always presses the troops to the front line in batches in companies. This made the enemy a little overwhelmed, but it also caused huge casualties to his own troops. In Fang Lang''s eyes, this tactic has a bit of a sense of the pig''s sudden tactic invented by the Japanese during the Russo-Japanese War. It''s just that I''m not proficient in using it, or I don''t know how to learn it well. The soldiers of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force privately called him the Butcher, but at the same time they were terribly afraid of him. Just such a character, he didn''t expect to be stuffed into his Marine Corps. "It seems that Mr. Colonel Rivaldo Granma is not very popular in the army, right?" Fang Lang lit a long match and handed it to General Crook, trying to help him light the cigar in his hand. General Crook waved his hand, took the match from Fang Lang, and signaled Fang Lang to come by himself. With a hint of surprise in his eyes, he said: "Oh! Where did you find that?" Fang Lang lit a match for himself, put the cut cigar head on the flame and lit it, smiled, and said slowly: "Since the army is obviously higher than the navy, this Colonel Rivaldo Granma was kicked into our navy to serve as the commander of the marine corps. Isn''t this some meaning of distributing frontiers? " "Yes! This guy''s popularity in the army is not very good, but he married a good wife!" The man in front of him was obviously not too satisfied with the army officer who had squeezed into his naval team. The irony in this sentence was obvious, so how could Fang Lang not hear it. "Oh! I don''t know the wife of Colonel Rivaldo Granma, what''s so good about it?" I don''t know why, Fang Lang felt a little weird when he said this sentence. "His wife''s father was the previous Minister of the Brazilian Army! Our current Mr. President turned out to be his subordinate. Do you think he married a good wife? " The disdain in General Crook''s eyes was undisguised. Fang Lang couldn''t help sighing, he really married a good wife! No wonder this guy was able to get promoted to Colonel so quickly. Smiling helplessly, Fang Lang finally understood why General Crook thought this matter was complicated, and the Admiralty was powerless to stop it. "Are you trying to persuade me not to refuse this appointment?" General Crook shook his head with a smile and said: "I hope you have a way to prevent this appointment from being issued. Unfortunately, knowing that this is impossible, the father-in-law, who appointed Colonel Rivaldo Granma for this, personally visited Mr. President. Although no official order has been issued yet, we all know that this appointment cannot be stopped. " His meaning is obvious, that is, to persuade Fang Lang not to do useless work. Politics is the art of compromise, since General Crook and Fang Lang have explained the whole story of this matter with confidence. Moreover, he showed Fang Lang his attitude on this matter without any scruples. Of course Fang Lang would not categorically oppose Mr. President''s order. "Since the other party wants to come to the Marine Corps to command the armored force, does the Ministry of the Navy have any plans to purchase tanks?" After hearing Fang Lang''s words, General Crook didn''t know what Fang Lang''s real thoughts were, so he asked with some hesitation: "what do you mean?" Fang Lang understood that General Crook was testing himself, and worried that his ideas would conflict with his own about the idea of ??forming the First Fleet Amphibious Force. "If the War Department can send enough tanks over, of course I''m fine. However, I don''t think this is the right time to apply to form the Armored Corps of the Marine Corps myself. " It''s not that Fang Lang wants to set up obstacles for the new Marine Corps commander. Rather, although the current LVT series of amphibious tanks of the U.S. Army does have good strength, this is not the focus of Fang Lang''s current development. In Fang Lang''s mind, the naval aviation is more important than the amphibious landing force. It''s not that Fang Lang doesn''t pay attention to amphibious landing operations, but it''s determined by Brazil''s strategic environment. First of all, Brazil has no enemies in South America. Even if there is a conflict with a neighboring country, there is basically no need to launch an amphibious landing operation, because it borders almost all South American countries except Chile and Ecuador. If you really want to hit other people''s land, you don''t need amphibious landing troops at all. Fang Lang actually wants to develop an elite marine corps capable of airborne operations and special operations missions. (end of this chapter) Chapter 238: Respond in advance Chapter 238 Response in advance Fang Lang noticed that General Crook was visibly relieved after hearing his words. Obviously, the two have the same attitude on this matter. The Admiralty is already at a disadvantage. How could it be willing to use its own department''s military expenses to support an officer of the Army Department to form an armored force. Although this is an army officer who was squeezed out by the Ministry of the Army, it cannot change his natural army faction attributes. This is the benefit of marrying a good wife, enjoying the benefits of being brought to you, of course you have to bear the corresponding consequences. If this Colonel Valdo Grama has excellent abilities and can get along well in the Ministry of War, of course it will be smooth sailing and he will not encounter any problems. But now that he has transferred to the Ministry of the Navy, the inherent attributes in him that could bring him a boost will become obstacles to his development. "The current development focus of our Admiralty is to strengthen the overall strength of the navy. Most of the warships in other naval theaters are old, and we are planning to gradually replace the existing warships. You don''t have enough financial resources to continue purchasing equipment for your First Fleet. " General Crook''s meaning was very obvious, and Fang Lang understood it when he heard it. He also understands that there are actually complaints about his First Fleet within the Navy. After all, all the advanced equipment of the Navy is now concentrated in his First Fleet. Others are still using outdated pre-World War I equipment, which will feel unfair to anyone. Hasn''t his friend, Colonel Teach, been envious of new destroyers for a long time? Originally, he also wanted to add two professional supply ships to his fleet. However, looking at the situation now, it should be unlikely in a short period of time. After a few words, the two reached a tacit agreement. The incoming Marine Corps officer didn''t know that the Ministry of the Navy had already set up obstacles for him before he took office, and it was destined that his future military career would not go smoothly. "Your Excellency, if we target this person excessively, will it have any bad influence on you?" After hearing this, General Crook exhaled a smoke ring and said: "Can there be any bad influence, the fact is that the current situation is like this, the entire Admiralty is reacting, we are too partial to your First Fleet. We also have to consider the development of other naval theaters! If the Ministry of the Army is willing to take the initiative to support the armored equipment, I will definitely agree with it. " As for General Crook saying that he favored the First Fleet, Fang Lang just smiled and did not refute. However, from the attitude of the other party, Fang Lang can also see that it should be impossible to continue to increase the strength of the First Fleet in the future. Fang Lang also understands that this is the reality. The First Fleet is now the dominant company, which is equivalent to owning more than half of the strength of the Brazilian Navy. This kind of development is very abnormal. If you continue to be greedy, you might be targeted by other colleagues, which is not conducive to Fang Lang''s future development. "If the Ministry of War is really willing to purchase armored equipment, it won''t kick our Mr. Colonel into the Navy. I don''t know what instructions you have for this Mr. Colonel. " The more General Crook looked at Fang Lang, the more satisfied he felt, with strong ability, strong relationship, and knowing how to advance and retreat. Now actively asking himself about the arrangements for the newly appointed colonel is obviously giving himself enough face. "As far as I know, this Colonel Valdo Grama is straightforward, assertive, and proud. When interacting with him, you must pay attention to the method and method, and don''t directly conflict with him. When the time comes, you will make a joke, which will have a bad influence on you, the superior. Of course, as a superior, you should criticize your subordinates seriously when they should criticize their mistakes. When it''s time to punish, don''t be soft. The most important thing is that since it is the Marine Corps of the Navy, we must ensure that this team can obey orders and obey commands. " Fang Lang had to sigh, there are many twists and turns in this foreign officialdom! As soon as he heard the description of the colonel of General Crook, Fang Lang understood what kind of person the other party was. He has a straightforward personality. Doesn''t it mean that he can''t speak his head, which is a bit ugly? Very assertive, that is, very confident, not listening to other people''s opinions, isn''t this arrogance? As for being more proud of others, all he has to do is tell himself directly about this arrogant and domineering guy. Don''t have a direct conflict with him yet, isn''t this just a clear reminder to yourself that this guy is a difficult person to deal with, maybe you will have a direct conflict with yourself? If this kind of person criticizes him seriously, it is estimated that the other party may not listen to what he says! Dont be soft-handed when punishing, is it to remind yourself that if you want to do something, you have to trample him to death directly, and dont give him a chance to stand up? There is no need to translate the meaning of the last sentence, the meaning is already clear. After listening to General Crook''s words, Fang Lang couldn''t help but feel dizzy for a while. He thought he was living too easily, and he wanted to make trouble for himself! After thinking about it, Fang Lang asked General Crook directly: "Your Excellency, has the Ministry of the Navy given clear instructions on the establishment of our Marine Corps?" General Crook didn''t understand why Fang Lang suddenly changed the topic to the establishment. shook his head and said: "Your First Fleet was originally a bold attempt by the navy, and it didn''t give a clear framework. What''s the matter? What do you think?" Fang Lang pondered for a while and then said: "Your Excellency, General, I plan to divide the entire Marine Corps into five battalion-level units. There will be no regiment-level headquarters in the middle, and the brigade will directly command the battalion. Do you think this is okay? " Most of the current army formations are companies, battalions, regiments, brigades, divisions, and corps. This level of organization is organized according to the three-three system. Of course, some countries have no brigade-level organization. Fang Lang''s method of organizing five battalions directly under the command of the brigade is obviously the first in Brazil. He was a naval officer, and for a while he didn''t understand the reason for Fang Lang''s formation. But soon, he thought of one thing. Fang Lang must have thought of his confidantes. The current rank is not enough to be a regiment-level officer, but they can be directly promoted to the position of battalion commander. He can directly bypass the brigade commander to command these battalion commanders. When he directs to each battalion, the brigade headquarters will naturally be emptied. Thinking of this, General Crook couldn''t help giving a thumbs up in his heart. nodded in satisfaction and said: "As the commander of the First Fleet, you have the right to decide the organization plan of your troops. I have no objection, you can write a report to me later, and I will sign it for confirmation. You have to hurry up and complete the formation of the troops as soon as possible. " Fang Lang didn''t expect that General Crook would agree to such a big matter so easily, and he also deliberately asked him to complete the formation before the other party''s arrival, creating an established fact. It seems that the other party should have thought of part of his purpose. Since the Chief of Staff of the Navy has made it clear that he can directly sign and confirm, it is obvious that he has obtained some authorization. Fang Lang has been in the Navy for so long, but he has never met the Minister of the Navy of Brazil. He heard that he has been on sick leave, and the real power in the Navy Department is basically the Chief of Staff of the Navy Department in front of him. It seems that the Secretary of the Navy of the Ministry of the Navy should also be ostracized, so he didn''t bother to show his embarrassment! But Fang Lang didn''t understand, why didn''t the Chief of Staff take another step up? This thought just passed in Fang Lang''s mind, and he stopped paying attention to it. After all, he is not yet capable of participating in this level of struggle. As long as the other party dares to express his endorsement for himself, Fang Lang no longer has any scruples, and he can execute boldly with confidence. "Yes, Your Excellency General!" Both of them were very efficient. Before the welcome dinner that night started, Fang Lang had already obtained General Crook''s signature and approval of the Brazilian Navy''s First Fleet Marine Corps organization plan. The letter of appointment submitted by the Chief of Staff of the First Fleet de la Torre, regarding the five marine battalions, battalion and company commanders, was also signed and agreed by Fang Lang and General Crook. Duarte and other five former Marine Corps officers directly became the chief officers of the newly formed Marine Corps Real Power Battalion. Zhuang Xintian, who was still floating at sea, was also exceptionally promoted to become the second battalion commander of the Marine Corps of the First Fleet. The work efficiency of the navy this time has directly created the history since the establishment of the navy. That night, when the officers were still singing and dancing at the welcome dinner, the Marine Corps barracks had already completed the reorganization. The soldiers have all followed their chief officers directly and moved into the reassigned barracks. When the Marine Corps resumed its day of training early the next morning, Guan Lang, the highest commander of the First Fleet, personally took the stage and organized all members of the Marine Corps to conduct the first group lecture. General Crook of the Brazilian Navy Department also came to the stage in person to encourage the soldiers. Finally, Fang Lang directly invited out, and asked General Clark to help him recruit more than forty veteran sergeant majors of the US Marine Corps to serve as military training instructors of the Marine Corps. These sergeant majors are all veterans who survived nine deaths on the Pacific battlefield, and each has his own unique skills. There are also three sergeant majors from the 101st Airborne Division who will be responsible for training the soldiers in airborne tactics. The entire training program lasted nearly six months, and General Crook, a general from the navy, didn''t see any tricks. However, this training plan made the scalps of these American sergeant majors numb. Because Fang Lang''s training requirements for each item far exceed the training requirements of the US Marine Corps. What puzzled these sergeant majors even more was that Fang Lang said that after the training, he would organize an internal selection, and form three small naval special tactics research teams of about ten people through elimination selection. They don''t know the specific research content. Because, after being selected, the training of the soldiers will no longer require them to participate. Instead, Fang Lang, the supreme commander of the First Fleet, is in charge. This naval special tactics research team is a combat unit directly under the First Fleet Command. If you can pass Fang Lang''s training and successfully become a full member of this team, you will be directly awarded the rank of second lieutenant. That is to say, this will be a combat team composed entirely of officers. When this news reached the ears of every marine soldier through Fang Lang''s lecture, the training enthusiasm of the entire army was directly ignited. This is an opportunity to upgrade from a soldier to an officer! In peacetime, without military achievements, it is simply impossible to upgrade from an ordinary soldier to an officer. (end of this chapter) Chapter 239: to take office Chapter 239 Arrival After arranging the Marine Corps, Fang Lang handed over the screening of aircraft carrier naval personnel to the chief of staff de la Torre, but he began to have a headache about the recruitment of pilots. Brazil now also has an air force. During World War II, the Brazilian Air Force cooperated with the U.S. Air Force and carried out more than 2,000 missions. This air force, established entirely with the support of the Americans, is a flying brigade with 350 P-47 Thunder fighter jets, divided into four squadrons of red, blue, yellow and green. The commander of the brigade is called Major Nero Mora. After the war, he was promoted to Colonel of the Air Force and concurrently served as Minister of the Brazilian Air Force. When Fang Lang''s First Fleet was established, the Brazilian Air Force was still under the command of General Morais, commander of the expeditionary force. So, at the beginning, the Brazilian Navy assigned ten fighter pilots and ten P-47 Thunder fighter jets from the Air Force to join the First Fleet. It can also be seen from here that the Brazilian Air Force is an incomplete air force with only fighter jets and can only perform combat and reconnaissance missions. Without bombers and transport planes, in Fang Lang''s eyes, this is an incomplete air force. It can be said that the Brazilian Air Force during this period was very weak. Once Fang Lang''s aircraft carrier forms combat effectiveness, it will have about a hundred naval aviation forces. This number has reached about one-third of the entire Brazilian Air Force, which means that the Brazilian Air Force is weak and has less say than the Navy, so they dare not compete with the Navy. Otherwise, the air power of the entire Brazilian Air Force, which is one-third of the strength, would not be a surprise. Here I have to talk about the Army''s coveted heart for this air force. Originally, when this air force was established, it was established in the name of the Army Aviation. However, because during the war, the air force was placed under the separate command of the US military, and the Brazilian Army did not actually command this nominal army aviation unit. After the war, the Brazilian Army wanted to bring the air force back under its command. Unfortunately, this air force, which has always been under the command of the US Army Aviation, already has a completely independent command system. With the help of the U.S. Air Force, he had the idea of ??forming an independent army. After returning to China, he went through a series of political games. In the end, President Vargas agreed with the opinion of the Air Force to form an independent army, which also offended many big bosses of the Army Department. Later, General Dutra''s coup may not be without this reason. So, it''s actually not an easy time for this Air Force team right now. The navy is about to have its own aircraft carrier and naval aviation. If it still poachs the corner of the Brazilian Air Force at this time, it will inevitably cause a strong rebound from the air force. And then caused a series of unnecessary troubles. Therefore, General Crook repeatedly emphasized to Fang Lang on the issue of building naval aviation, not to make decisions from the Brazilian Air Force. To use their existing aviation power to develop their own naval aviation. But looking at the ten pilots under him, and thinking about the one hundred pilots needed on the aircraft carrier, Fang Lang felt a headache. Aviators are not like soldiers in the army. Just pull a farmer to train for a few months, and then throw them on the battlefield to kill the enemy and serve the country. This is a high-tech unit, and it has certain requirements for physical fitness. Although the requirements are not as high as those of the later generations, it is not enough to just arrest a few people. As a last resort, Fang Lang could only find a way from the students who were still studying in school. Fang Lang directly ordered the ten HNA pilots of the First Fleet to bring relevant certification materials and go to high schools in various states of Brazil to recruit pilot students. It is going to build a Naval Aviation Academy in Natal, so it has to apply again to the Brazilian Navy Ministry to purchase ten PT-19 trainer aircraft. Fortunately, the Ministry of the Navy also knew that the situation was special, and included this additional fund in the aircraft carrier procurement plan. After being busy for more than a week, Fang Lang finally allowed Fang Lang to straighten out the work at the Natal Naval Base. Just when Fang Lang wanted to go back to his hometown in Sao Paulo with a sigh of relief to be with his family, he received a call from General Crook of the Navy Department. The appointment of the new brigade commander of the Marine Corps has been officially announced. The colonel, Mr. Valdo Grama, will arrive as early as tomorrow to make Fang Lang ready. This made Fang Lang very upset, feeling that this guy was contradicting himself everywhere. Originally, Fang Lang wanted to ignore the other party and go home directly, letting the other party have nothing to do. However, considering that I am a superior, if this is the case, many people may be unable to step down. So, Fang Lang could only give up his original plan to go home and wait quietly for the new Marine Corps commander in Natal. Surprisingly, Colonel Valdo Granma did not wait until the next day to report. That afternoon, when Fang Lang was still in the office asking General Clark for advice on aircraft carrier tactics, he received a report from his subordinates that a plane took off from Rio de Janeiro and had just contacted the control tower. It is about to land at Natal Airport. Among the passengers on the plane is Colonel Valdo Grama. I hope the naval base can do a good job of reception. "What do you mean? How big is this person! Do you want me to pick you up at the airport?" After Fang Lang heard the news, he came up angrily. But soon he laughed again. With such a personality, Fang Lang doesn''t have to worry. This guy did such a ignorant thing, either he was deliberately embarrassing him, or he was a real low EQ. Fang Lang hoped that the other party belonged to the latter. But no matter what the situation is, it can only prove that this guy is not smart enough. "Ask Sirio Leitch from the Second Division of the Logistics Department to come to the office to see me." Whether the opponent is really low in EQ, or wants to embarrass him in this way to improve his reputation in the new army, Fang Lang will not really listen to him and go to the airport to greet him. "Yes, sir." General Clark on one side, seeing Fang Lang''s situation, smiled and said: "It seems that your subordinate is not very peaceful!" Fang Lang smiled indifferently and said: "It doesn''t matter, it should be because he has been spoiled and raised, and he has never been beaten by the society. Let him go to my army to beat and beat him. He knew why the flowers were so red. " "Haha. You are really interesting, kid. Then we continue to study? " Of course, no one can stop my enthusiasm for learning and improving. The two continued to catch up with the learning progress just now. After a while, the door of the office was knocked again. This time it was Lieutenant Sirio Leitch, chief of the second section of the Logistics Department. "Sir, are you looking for me?" Now, the Natal head of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency has joined Fang Lang''s First Fleet Logistics Department, and his external identity has always been an officer of the Logistics Department. It turned out that he was a second lieutenant in the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, but after the last incident with the Yakubu family, Fang Lang had already helped him reach the rank of lieutenant. Except for a limited number of officers of the First Fleet who knew his true identity, most of them thought he was really an ordinary logistics officer. Many military officers have doubts about what the Second Division of the Logistics Department does. Because, there is no department in the naval base that has business dealings with the second division of the logistics department. The Second Division of the Logistics Department, in all the documents and materials of the Fleet Headquarters, shows that its job duties are to be responsible for the external liaison work of the First Fleet. As for the specific contact, there is no way of knowing. Most people guess that this may be a department set up specifically to let some related households receive wages. Because most of the people in this department are superficial, no one knows exactly how many people work here. Even the director of logistics never assigns them tasks. Although the station is in the base, the personnel of this department rarely show up at the base. Even their entry and exit from the naval base is a special passage, guarded and inspected by their own personnel. "We have a new colonel commander in the Marine Corps, have you heard?" Fang Lang suspended his study, walked to the door and whispered to Lieutenant Sirio Leitch. "heard!" Lieutenant Sirio Leitch nodded, and simply answered Fang Lang''s question without saying much. "His plane will arrive soon, please find some people to pick him up! I am busy studying and have no time. If he asks anything, you can do it yourself. Do you understand me? " A new Marine Corps commander, Fang Lang refused to let the staff arrange someone to receive him. Instead, let him be in charge of the reception in the second department of the logistics department. If Lieutenant Sirio Leitch still doesn''t understand what''s going on, he doesn''t have to mess around. A cold light flashed in his eyes, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned. Lieutenant Lei Qi nodded with a smile on his face and said: "Yes, sir." Fang Lang smiled, didn''t say much, patted him on the shoulder, turned around and entered the office, and continued his great study. Lieutenant Sirio Leitch didn''t stay too long, and went directly to his office at the naval base. Picked up a blank file and carefully wrote down the name of Valdo Grama. Looking at the situation, it is obvious that a brand new file should be established for the Colonel in the Second Division of their Logistics Department. About half an hour later, a Pan Am passenger plane flying from Rio de Janeiro landed at Natal Airport. Because Fang Lang established a civil airport service company in Natal, so now Natal will have planes landing here from time to time. Of course, because the airport has been open for a relatively short period of time, there are not many stopovers or direct flights, so the flight route has not become hotter. After the plane landed, more than a dozen people who had already been waiting at the airport took the initiative to greet them. A middle-aged Caucasian man with a mustache and the uniform of a Brazilian army colonel walked down the spiral staircase first. Glancing at the dozen or so people waiting, his face darkened and he asked directly: "Didn''t I inform you on the plane that I''m coming? Why didn''t Colonel Fang come to greet you?" Following him came out a very delicately dressed middle-aged beautiful white woman with a small handbag on her arm and a white lace parasol, looking very fashionable. Followed by two teenage boys and a seven or eight-year-old girl. Behind them is a group of army soldiers carrying large and small luggage. They don''t look like soldiers at all, but are a little funny like servants. The person in charge of picking up the plane was a young man in the military uniform of a Navy second lieutenant. After hearing the question from Colonel Valdo Grama, he hurried forward and explained: "Sir, I''m really sorry, everyone is now receiving training from the American Advisory Group, and I really can''t get away. I am the adjutant assigned to you by the First Fleet. My name is Alberto Dill. You can call me Dill. Don''t worry, your residence and office have been arranged, and I will take you there first. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 240: in one go Chapter 240 All in one go After hearing the words of this Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill, Colonel Valdo Grama said with disdain: "A little second lieutenant wants to be my adjutant, what are you thinking about! I have my own adjutant, and I don''t need anyone else to arrange for me. Send us back to our residence. " Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill didn''t dare to say anything, he could only nod his head and said: "Yes, sir, please follow me, the car is ahead." Colonel Valdo Grama didn''t say much, turned his head to the delicate woman and said: "These damned navy fishermen really don''t know good and bad, and they don''t know etiquette at all. When I was the head of the army, the naval colonel named Fang Lang was just an infantry cannon fodder! The old superior didn''t even come to greet him when he took office. It''s really rude. " The delicate and beautiful woman wore a small white hat on her hair, and a white fishnet-shaped decoration hung from the brim of the hat. It looks very elegant. After hearing what his man said, he still covered his nose and frowned slightly: "No wonder I smell a faint fishy smell, so they are all fishermen. You''d better arrange for someone to clean up our house. If I smell this fishy smell every day from now on, I''ll throw up. " Colonel Valdo Grama smiled and said: "Don''t worry! Tomorrow I will organize all the people to clean up the sanitation nearby. Let these **** fishermen enter civilized society early and experience it. " After listening to his words, Madam smiled in satisfaction, then turned her head to look at the soldiers carrying luggage behind her, and scolded: "Be careful, these suitcases are very expensive. , you, I''m talking about you, how can you put the suitcase on the ground? If it gets dirty, you lick it clean. " The soldiers behind them were terrified and kept silent, and hurriedly raised the suitcase that hadn''t touched the ground. The couple did not notice that the faces of the people who came to greet them began to look ugly. The leader, Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill, had a cold light in his eyes. He looked at the soldiers carrying luggage, and his eyes showed a look of thought. Under the guidance of Lieutenant Alberto Dill, everyone came to a row of Willys jeeps parked beside the runway. Before inviting everyone to board the car, Colonel Valdo Grama frowned and said: "Why are they all military jeeps, but no cars for senior officers?" Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill hurried forward and explained: "Sir, apart from jeeps, the only vehicles in our naval base are trucks, and there are no cars for senior officers." "Honey, this is not possible, you have to hurry up and let the logistics department purchase two cars. Otherwise, it would be too inconvenient for me to go out with the kids. This jeep is leaking everywhere, I dont know how much dust it will eat! " Mrs. Grama''s delicate voice sounded from behind. Colonel Valdo Grama quickly said with a smile on his face: "Don''t worry! When I apply for the purchase of tank equipment, I will purchase two cars by the way, to ensure that you and the children will not be blown by the wind or drenched in the rain. Now lets feel wronged my dear, first take this broken jeep back to the residence and talk. " After finishing speaking, he looked at the rear seats of the jeep, obviously feeling unhygienic, and said to Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill: "Does your vehicle not be maintained at ordinary times? See how dirty the seat is, and quickly find something to cushion it." Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill couldn''t help being taken aback when he heard this, it doesn''t make sense! How could it be dirty if it was done just before the reception? Could it be that the subordinates were lazy. You must know that Fang Lang has very strict requirements on the health standards of the army. Whether it is a warship or the environment in the base, the maintenance requirements for ordnance equipment are very strict. All places should be sanitized at least twice a day, and the military police will check every corner of the sanitation every day, if the white gloves of the military police get dirty in that place. The consequences are very serious, not only the person in charge of this sanitation area is in trouble, but his directly subordinate officers at the top three levels have to do a review. Also, affects everyone''s perks. This can''t be blamed on Fang Lang''s perverted request. There are so many people living together in an army, and a little carelessness may cause infectious diseases. Therefore, Fang Lang couldn''t do without being cautious. In addition to strict requirements on hygiene, Fang Lang also has very strict requirements on the appearance and appearance of the army. I remember in my previous life, when I was studying and participating in military training, the instructor taught everyone to make tofu cubes. Fang Lang also wants to promote it in the First Fleet, but because his fleet has been stationed in the tropics for a long time, there is no chance to use quilts at all, so he can only ask everyone to tidy up the hygiene of the bed surface. It looks very pleasing to the eye. At first, the officers and soldiers of the First Fleet complained, but after a long time, everyone discovered the benefits. In addition, Fang Lang formulated a strict reward and punishment system. For their own honor and their own allowance, everyone gradually developed a good habit of paying attention to hygiene. So, when Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill heard that his subordinates were unqualified in hygiene, his complexion changed, and so did the soldiers around him. The driver of this car hastily turned his head and looked at the place Colonel Valdo Grama pointed to. But no matter how everyone looked, they didn''t find any dirty things! Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill even reached out and touched the seat and the floor, but he didn''t see a trace of dust anywhere! It stands to reason that this kind of jeep without doors should have some dust after driving for a certain distance. But Natal as a seaside city. In addition, there is no industrial base that can pollute the environment nearby, and the air quality is still very good. As long as the car is not driven on the muddy road outside the military camp, the car will basically not be dirty. Seeing his clean palms, Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill still didn''t understand that the other party didn''t discover some dead corner of hygiene at all. Forcibly suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart, he said with a smile on his face: "Sir, wait a moment, I''ll find a blanket right now and come over to cushion you." Colonel Valdo Grama shook his head with a dark face and said: "Now that the sun is so hot, why are you looking for some blankets? Take off your military uniforms and put them on." Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill looked at the navy uniform on his body, and then at the army uniform on the other side, and had some guesses in his heart. But no matter what the situation is, he cannot accept using his military uniform as a cushion for the opponent. This is not a question of cleanliness at all, it is a question of dignity. So, the smile on Lieutenant Alberto Dill''s face finally disappeared, and he put on a serious expression and said to Colonel Valdo Grama: "I''m sorry, Mr. Colonel, but uniforms represent the honor of soldiers. I cannot accept the request to use our uniform as a cushion for your family. " Colonel Valdo Granma obviously did not expect that a small second lieutenant officer dared to refuse to carry out his order. And it was still in front of his family, which made him unable to step down directly. The already gloomy face was so dark that water could be picked up. "Mr. Second Lieutenant, do you understand the consequences of disobedience?" "Report sir, I am a soldier, I am not disobeying orders, I am safeguarding the dignity of soldiers." Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill said without giving in. Of course he wouldn''t foolishly admit that he was disobeying orders. The faces of the soldiers who came around to greet the group were also very ugly at the moment. The faces of the group of soldiers behind the colonel were numb, as if they were indifferent to what happened in front of them. Colonel Valdo Grama''s hand has reached for the pistol pinned to his belt uncontrollably. However, Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill stood at attention blankly and looked at the other party as if he hadn''t seen the other party''s movements. Seeing that the atmosphere was getting more and more tense, everyone stopped talking and watched how the Colonel was going to deal with it. A soft and cute little girl''s voice sounded: "Mom, I''m hungry." The little girl obviously didn''t understand what was going on. However, his voice broke the tense atmosphere. Mrs. Grama stepped forward to hold the little girl''s hand and said: "Be good, baby, let someone prepare food for you when you get home." Colonel Valdo Grama said with a livid face: "Mr. Second Lieutenant, you have saved your life. Now send us back to settle down, and then go to receive a week of confinement. " Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill said with a blank expression: "Understood, Mr. Colonel." Its not that Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill is cowardly, but that in the Brazilian army during this period, ordinary soldiers have no human rights at all, and you can only obey orders if the superior officer orders you to be a slave. After becoming an officer, you can gradually have certain human rights. As an army under the command and training of the U.S. military, the Brazilian Expeditionary Force is relatively westernized in thinking. The relationship between officers and soldiers has gradually disappeared, and the slave-style affiliation of the old Brazilian army has gradually disappeared. In addition, at the beginning of the establishment of the First Fleet, Fang Lang attached great importance to the construction of the military''s sense of honor, and corrected many bad habits in the Brazilian army. Not to mention the equality between officers and soldiers of the First Fleet, but it is definitely an alternative in the entire Brazilian army. Take the situation of corruption and bribery in the army as an example, this is a basic operation in other Brazilian troops, and it is a common unspoken rule. The First Fleet clearly stipulates that it is not allowed to accept bribes from subordinate officers, and it is forbidden for subordinates to bribe their superiors. Once found both parties will be expelled from the military. This made many officers and soldiers transferred from other troops to the First Fleet very uncomfortable. In addition to the allowances given to the whole army by the commander of the First Fleet, it is even more unbelievable for most people. After all, the current First Fleet is not just the original two or three kittens. The full number of people on an aircraft carrier alone has reached more than 3,400 people, and the number of marines has also reached more than 2,500 people. Including the crew of other warships and base support staff, the entire crew of the First Fleet actually exceeded the 10,000 mark. For such a huge army, Fang Lang''s monthly allowance is as high as nearly 800,000 US dollars. The amount of the subsidy, in fact, is far higher than the military salary issued by the Brazilian government. This also caused many officers and soldiers of the First Fleet to call Fang Lang the boss or boss instead of the officer. Because, many people believe in their hearts that Fang Lang is their boss, because Fang Lang sends them money. Everyone in the First Fleet was told that this allowance was given to everyone by Fang Lang personally. If someone exposes this matter, all employees will stop paying this kind of allowance; if you dont perform well, your allowance will be deducted; if you dont obey orders or Fang Langs leadership, your allowance will be suspended. A large part of the function of the Second Division of the Logistics Department is to monitor the dissemination of this information. (end of this chapter) Chapter 241: Decline again Chapter 241 Declines Again Although Colonel Valdo Granma participated in the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, his performance was obviously a typical old-school Brazilian military officer. This kind of behavior is doomed, and it will be difficult for him to integrate into the new whole of the First Fleet. Considering that his father-in-law was the original Minister of the Army, it is even more impossible for Fang Lang to give him any allowance. If this is reported to the Brazilian Ministry of Defense, it may cause the upper-level personnel to come down to investigate. At this moment, Colonel Valdo Grama was somewhat puzzled as to why the soldiers of the First Fleet had the guts to refuse the order of a colonel officer like him. This situation is absolutely impossible in other armies. Because, the first step in army training is to teach all soldiers to obey, and obeying the orders of superiors is the code of conduct for soldiers. Today, there are junior officers who refuse to carry out his orders because of the so-called sense of military honor. Combined, the person who came to receive him today was just a small second lieutenant, which made him have to start thinking about whether this second lieutenant was ordered by someone to embarrass him on purpose. Even deliberately provoked his anger and made him do something irrational. This is also the reason why he resisted not drawing his gun and directly killed the disobedient second lieutenant. After the incident at the airport, everyone who boarded the car seemed a little silent. The powerful Colonel Valdo Grama is also thinking about whether there is any conspiracy in his heart at this moment. And Mrs. Granma was also a little absent-minded, not knowing what she was thinking. Only the three children looked at this huge military camp with fresh faces as if they didn''t know what happened. The convoy drove out of the airport, passed through several checkpoints, and entered the heavily guarded military camp. The situation in this barracks was beyond Colonel Valdo Grama''s expectations, because now that the war is over, most of the Brazilian army no longer conducts any training. Soldiers who have no missions tend to wander around the barracks a little loosely, or play some ball games, and some people hide secretly to play some board games banned by the army. But Natal''s barracks was not like this. At least after entering the gate, Colonel Valdo Grama didn''t see the soldiers who seemed to be wandering around. The soldiers walking on the road, regardless of whether they were armed or not, kept walking in formation, which surprised him very much. He even looked around to see if there was a military police nearby. In his impression, only when the military police inspected, can the soldiers observe military discipline like this. And the military police of the Brazilian army, in fact, don''t care much about what the soldiers do when they rest, or how they do it. The vehicle passes through the concrete barracks and enters a huge training ground. The soldiers were conducting the American training under the leadership of the officer. He was fairly familiar with the American training, but he noticed that there were some training contents that he had never been exposed to before. But one thing he can be sure of is that the intensity of training here far exceeds the training they received in the United States. Although the time is close to evening, Natal is located in the tropical region of the southern hemisphere, and the sun is still fierce at this time. The soldiers on the training ground were training desperately without realizing it. He could even see several major officers among them crawling over the mud-covered barbed wire in a crawling posture. The machine gun bullets fired not far away were whizzing past the barbed wire. The soldiers under the barbed wire were too scared to lift their heads. Standing next to the machine gun was a guy who looked like an American instructor, roaring and urging the soldiers They pass quickly. Scenes like this seemed to bring him back to the days when he was training in the United States. Although he didn''t have to go through such training, he felt that it was a kind of torture when he thought about it. Mrs. Grama, who was sitting by the side in a daze, turned pale with fright at the moment. The constant screams in his mouth caused the instructors on the sidelines of the training field to glare. Colonel Valdo Grama also quickly hugged his wife in his arms, comforting him softly. He didn''t dare to show his teeth to the instructors who came over, because he could smell the smell of American instructors from these people. On the other hand, the children in the back car were full of curiosity about this training scene that they had never seen before, pointing and discussing it from time to time. The soldiers in army uniforms with their luggage looked at everything in front of them in a daze, as if they had returned to the European battlefield. Finally, the vehicle passed through the training ground and came to a beach by the sea. Mrs. Grama''s emotions finally eased down. Mrs. Grama, who was born in Rio de Janeiro, is not someone who has never seen the sea. However, when the vehicle passed through the sizzling training ground and saw the beach again, Mrs. Grama actually had the excitement of surviving a catastrophe. But the good mood didn''t last long, and Mrs. Granma saw a scene that made her feel very unsightly. A group of soldiers wearing shorts were being supervised by the instructors and were sitting and doing push-ups in the sea water. I dont know if the instructors didnt call out the password, so the soldiers didnt support themselves. This is more like a breath-holding training. "It''s really a shame, such a beautiful sea view, such a beautiful beach, to let a group of big soldiers train here." Mrs. Granma finally couldn''t hold back her complaints. Colonel Valdo Grama hurriedly grabbed her waist and comforted her: "When the time comes, I will drive them away, and our family can take a walk on this beautiful beach in peace." Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill was sitting in the co-pilot seat, and after hearing what Colonel Valdo Grama said, contempt flashed across his eyes. Even the driver of the car frowned after hearing the conversation between the two. Finally, the vehicle drove into a seaside residential area. These houses were all residential houses built by the Americans when they were stationed. Most of them are some small American-style two-story western-style buildings, covering an area of ??about 150 square meters. The combined area of ??upstairs and downstairs must be enough for a family to live in. After turning a corner in the residential area, the convoy stopped in front of one of the houses. Colonel Valdo Grama nodded in satisfaction after seeing the house. Mrs. Granma was obviously also very satisfied with this house, and a rare smile appeared on her face again. "Sir, this is the residence arranged for you." Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill handed a small cloth bag to Colonel Valdo Grama. Give the other party to open the door of their own house in person. Colonel Valdo Grama took it and handed it to Mrs. Grama. Madam took the small cloth bag with excitement and walked towards the door. Mr. Colonel looked around and saw several giant warships parked by the sea not far away, he couldn''t help being deeply shocked. Then he said to Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill indifferently: "Who are my neighbors?" "Sir, all the field officers of our base live here. However, I don''t know who is actually living in that house. " Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill politely answered Mr. Colonel''s question. He didn''t really know who lived in these houses. However, after a brief contact today, he decided that it would be better not to talk to the colonel in front of him about some things. "Then do you know where Colonel Fang Lang is? I think I need to talk to him. " Colonel Valdo Grama showed disrespect to Fang Lang, the commander of the First Fleet, which made Lieutenant Alberto Dill and others very dissatisfied. The second lieutenant knew that he was only a second lieutenant officer, and it was impossible to conflict with the colonel in front of him. However, as an officer of the second division of the logistics department, he has already made up his mind to use a magnifying glass to stare at the arrogant and domineering colonel in front of him. He secretly felt ruthless, don''t let him get caught. If there is a chance, he must let the other party know who is the talker in the First Fleet. "Sir, I think Chief Fang should be in the office now. Because, recently, he has been discussing the strategy and tactics of the aircraft carrier battle group with Major General Clark of the advisory group. Work is very busy, if you want to see him, I can make an appointment for you. " "Advisory group? Is it the advisory group of the US military?" "Yes, sir." Colonel Valdo Grama thought to himself, no wonder the instructors I saw at the training ground today are so similar to the training instructors of the expeditionary force back then. "Are the soldiers training we saw on the road today the Marines under my command?" Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill curled his lips inwardly when he heard the question from Mr. Colonel, full of disdain. What is your Marine Corps? is the Marine Corps of the First Fleet, the Marine Corps belonging to Colonel Fang, and you are just a new outsider. If you can''t get Colonel Fang''s approval, you are nothing. Of course, these can only be thought about in my heart, and I still said with a smile on my face: "Of course, sir." "I remember that these soldiers have all experienced recruit training! Why do they have to go through such high-intensity training again?" Colonel Valdo Grama said the question he had been wanting to ask after seeing the lively training scene in the base. Because, he knows very well that if the troops have been in a state of high-intensity training, it is impossible for him to stop the training and take over the command. Ask him to repeat and follow up his training experience in the United States, but he is not very willing. Every day exposed to the wind and the sun, abusing themselves, only sick people will think about doing it again. Now that there is no war pressure, he doesn''t understand why Fang Lang organizes troops for such high-intensity training. This kind of training requires a very scary daily consumption. Not to mention the loss of guns and ammunition, the expenditure on food and drink alone is at least three levels higher than usual. Is the navy so rich. If Fang Lang knew what this guy was thinking, he would definitely spit old phlegm on his face. It''s not your money, it''s none of your business! If it is not used, how will Shata Companys business develop. Who sells the arms and ammunition of the arms company established by myself, no brains. It''s a pity that he asked Ensign Alberto Dill, not to mention whether Mr. Ensign knew the answer to this question. Based on the thoughts in Mr. Second Lieutenant''s mind now, if he knows, he will say he doesn''t know. So, the second lieutenant said as expected: "Sir, this kind of problem is not something that I, a little second lieutenant in the staff department, can know. If you want to know, you can go to Colonel Fang for advice. I only know that this training will last for six months. At the beginning of the training mobilization meeting, General Crook, Chief of Staff of the Navy Department, presided over it. According to His Excellency the General, he will come to inspect the results in six months. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 242: Three and exhaust Chapter 242 Three Exhaustions Hearing Lieutenant Alberto Dill''s answer, Mr. Colonel felt that he was not well. Six months of training time, do I have to join the training team again? He has no right to stop the training and mobilization presided over by the Chief of Staff of the Navy Department. What''s more, the chief of the general staff will come to inspect the training results in person after six months. If the results are not good, it might be his own fault. For a while, Colonel Valdo Grama felt a little regretful. He shouldn''t have come to report so early. Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill couldn''t understand Mr. Colonel''s mood, but continued to ask the colonel about today''s arrangements. "Sir, do you need me to make an appointment for you to visit His Excellency the Commander?" "Mr. Second Lieutenant, I am tired all the way today, so I will not meet Colonel Fang for now. Please tell Colonel Fang that I will meet him tomorrow morning. " Mr. Colonel finally had to choose to take the initiative to meet Fang Lang, but he still stubbornly said that he wanted to meet him. Instead of the tone of a subordinate visiting a superior. From this, it can be seen that in Mr. Colonel''s heart, Fang Lang is still not convinced. I don''t know if it''s because the other party is his former subordinate, or the arrogance of the army prevents him from bowing to the navy. In the eyes of other people, this kind of person is disrespectful, ignorant of current affairs, arrogant and hopelessly arrogant. "Yes, sir. Then I will help you now and make an appointment to meet with the Commander. " do not know why? At this moment, Mr. Colonel felt that the words of Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill always made people very uncomfortable. For a while, I couldn''t find words to refute, so I had no choice but to turn around and walk into my new home. Second Lieutenant Alberto Dill looked at the back of Mr. Colonel, disappeared at the door of the house, turned around and got into the car, and the smiling expression he had been keeping disappeared instantly. "Colonel Valdo Grama, I''m really sorry. I was discussing aircraft carrier tactics with the American consultant yesterday. I couldn''t go to the airport to pick you up in person. Please don''t take it to heart." The next morning, Mr. Colonel still appeared in Fang Lang''s office. Fang Lang was very enthusiastic about the arrival of Colonel Valdo Grama, and gave him enough face. Personally went to the downstairs of the headquarters to receive him, and after a long greeting, he brought the other party into the office. As if unaware of what happened yesterday. Colonel Valdo Grama didn''t feel that he did anything wrong yesterday, so he didn''t feel any burden on his heart. "Colonel Fang, everything is over, since you are really busy with military affairs, I don''t care about it. I came here today mainly to confirm when I can start taking over the work of the Marine Corps. " Fang Lang seemed unaware of Colonel Valdo Grama''s attitude, but instead said with admiration: "Of course you can do it anytime! well! Don''t you know, I''m getting burned out by the lack of carrier-based aircraft pilots right now! I don''t have time to bother with the Marine Corps. I let their battalion commanders take care of themselves. came just in time, and I can relax a little bit. How about this! Wait a moment, I will have the five battalion commanders of the Marine Corps called over. From now on, you will be at the helm of the Marines. " After finishing speaking, he picked up the phone on the desk, dialed it, and explained to the phone: "Let the four battalion commanders of the Marine Corps report to my office!" Because Zhuang Xintian is still escorting the treasure at sea and has not returned to Brazil, only four battalion commanders are on duty. Colonel Valdo Grama was very satisfied when he saw Fang Lang''s attitude, and finally put a smile on his face. Sitting on the sofa in Fang Lang''s office, he involuntarily lay down on it, and his legs rested on the coffee table unconsciously. As if Fang Lang hadn''t seen it, he ordered someone to make a cup of coffee for Colonel Valdo Grama. "Colonel Fang, why do we only have five battalions of marines? What the superiors gave us was the establishment of a brigade! We can be bolder! My opinion is to organize according to two regiments plus one engineer battalion, one artillery battalion, and one guard company. Both battalions are organized as armored battalions, so we have an armored assault force. You are also a veteran of the European War. It should be clear that armored vehicles are the future of the Army. " Hearing Colonel Valdo Grama talk about his vision endlessly, Fang Lang also listened carefully to the other party''s opinions like a student. Mr. Colonel saw Fang Lang listening with gusto, and suddenly felt that he had found a rare bosom friend, and he spoke more vigorously. From the blitzkrieg of German tanks to the swarms of Soviet tanks, it was eloquent and full of hype. Fang Lang listened carefully to the other party''s bragging, and quickly drew a conclusion from the other party''s words. That is, tanks are the future, and an army without tanks cannot be called an army. Finally, the other party may have said that he was a little thirsty, so he picked up the coffee and took a sip. Fang Lang took the opportunity to cough twice, nodded seriously, looked at the other party with expectant eyes and said: "Mr. Colonel is really amazing, my blood boils when I hear it, I admire! Admire!" After hearing Fang Lang''s compliment, Colonel Valdo Grama also blushed, feeling that he had met a bosom friend. Listen to Fang Lang and continue: "I have benefited a lot from Mr. Colonel''s judgment on the future combat methods of the Army! However, we are the Navy. I would like to know your thoughts on the positioning and tactics of the Marine Corps? I dont know if you can share it with me so that I can learn. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Colonel Valdo Grama''s hand holding the coffee suddenly stopped in the air. My head buzzed, and I almost didn''t turn the corner for a moment. After a while, he hesitated and said: "Marines? Isn''t the Marines also the Army?" Fang Lang quickly waved his hands and said: "No, no, Mr. Colonel, the Army is the Army and the Marines are the Marines. You just said that the tanks and large corps fight, find weak points to break through, intersperse, detour and other tactics, and divide and encircle the enemy to eliminate them. These are Army tactical missions. But the Marine Corps is not the army. The mission of the Marine Corps is amphibious operations, landing on beaches, and opening channels for subsequent large-scale attacks. This is different. " Fang Lang''s words stunned Colonel Valdo Grama. I think God made a big joke on him. It turns out that the Marine Corps is not the Army! But when I came here, I said it was my old job! At this moment, Colonel Valdo Grama felt that the world was full of malice towards him. I dont know which string in my brain was suddenly plucked, Mr. Colonel said: "The Marine Corps also needs to have armored units!" Fang Lang seemed to have just reacted, slapped his thigh and said: "Yes! The Marine Corps also has armored units." After thinking for a while, he said: "Alas! After all, it was the thinking of the navy that imprisoned me. I forgot that the marines also have armored forces. Then I dont know what the colonel thinks about the tactics of the Marine Corps armored force, so you might as well say it, and let me refer to it for details. " Colonel Valdo Grama felt that at this moment, Fang Lang could no longer find the feeling of bosom friend just now. It seemed that everything just now was an illusion. But after all, he is an officer who has experienced war, Mr. Colonel quickly adjusted his state, and said bluntly: "Colonel Fang, since you are in the navy, let''s do a good job in the navy! Leave the matter of the Marine Corps to me, and I will definitely give you a big surprise then! " At this time, in Fang Lang''s mind, a villain popped up with one hand on his hips, pointed at Colonel Valdo Grama and said: "He is in a hurry! Look at him in a hurry!" I still dont understand, the other party has never studied the positioning of the Marine Corps, let alone understand the tactics of the Marine Corps. "Well! What Colonel Valdo Grama said is also reasonable, but I heard you just said about the establishment of the Marine Corps. Here I want to explain to you in advance, after my consultation with General Crook, our navy will only have five battalions, and each battalion is an independent combat unit. So, the formation plan of the two regiments that Mr. Colonel just mentioned cannot be realized. " Fang Lang''s words made Colonel Valdo Grama''s face look ugly, his legs on the coffee table fell to the ground suddenly, and the whole person bounced off the sofa. "What? This is my army, why should you laymen decide how to organize it. You are messing around, you must follow my organization plan, and the appointment of the two regiment leaders must also be decided by me. Colonel Fang, you have to remember that my troops are in charge of me. " Seeing the other party like a ignited powder keg, it exploded with a "bang". Fang Lang couldn''t help but underestimate him even more. "Mr. Colonel, please pay attention to your words, the Marine Corps is first and foremost a defense force that belongs to the Brazilian Navy. And what you call, your troops belong to the Marine Corps of the First Fleet of the Brazilian Navy, and I, as the commander-in-chief of the First Fleet of the Brazilian Navy, as your superior, have full power to decide the formation of the troops. Your performance today makes me very dissatisfied, lacking the minimum respect for superior officers. Your posture lying on the sofa has seriously damaged the image of the Brazilian Navy. Given your performance today, I think you need to re-accept a complete military training. Just right, all members of the Marine Corps are now receiving training from the American Advisory Group, and as the commander of the Marine Corps, you should lead by example. Starting from this afternoon, you can go to the training ground and train with everyone! " Fang Lang, who was sitting behind the desk, had a stern tone, a serious expression, and fierce eyes. Speaking these sonorous and powerful words, the majestic aura gave the furious Colonel Valdo Grama a blow, and he touched the cold water head-on, which poured a chill on the colonel''s heart. This is exactly the question that Mr. Colonel is trying to avoid. Doesn''t he know that Fang Lang is his superior? Of course he does. But he couldn''t accept that he would be led by this young man who was almost twenty years younger than him. When he was the commander of the lieutenant colonel, this young man was just a soldier. Why is he now the same rank as a colonel with him, and as his former superior, I still accept his leadership. He was very unconvinced, so from the first moment he came to the First Fleet, he asked Fang Lang to go to the airport to greet him in person. It is to be able to overwhelm the opponent in terms of momentum, but the opponent simply does not give him a chance. Even just sent a small second lieutenant to meet him at the airport. In his opinion, this is simply a humiliation to him. Originally going to visit Fang Lang in person this morning, he was still very upset. Unexpectedly, Fang Lang went downstairs to meet him at the headquarters, allowing him to experience the momentum of being exhausted from the previous blows, and regained a little confidence. As a result, following Fang Lang''s way, he was overjoyed, and Fang Lang slapped him on the ground and rubbed it. (end of this chapter) Chapter 243: reheat Chapter 243 Refurbishment Every word Fang Lang said was so righteous that Colonel Valdo Grama had no way to refute. even took off his proud coat and let him swim naked. Swallowing his saliva with difficulty, Mr. Colonel plucked up his last courage and said: "I am a colonel, how can I train with ordinary soldiers?" "What''s wrong with the colonel, I am also a colonel, and I am not receiving training from the US military advisory group every day." Fang Lang directly broke the opponent''s last struggling hope. Of course, Fang Lang secretly changed the concept here. His own so-called training is completely different from the training arranged for the other party. But Colonel Valdo Grama, who had been shocked by Fang Lang''s aura at this moment, hadn''t reacted for a while. Just when Mr. Colonel wanted to resist, the four battalion commanders of the Marine Corps who had been summoned from the training ground had already been ordered to come. "Good morning, sir!" The four battalion commanders in training uniforms were covered in mud, obviously dragged directly from the training ground. Colonel Valdo Grama frowned when he saw the state of these people. Fang Lang nodded with a smile on his face and said: "How, is the training hard?" Duarte took a glance from the corner of his eye, and stood at the officer wearing a colonel''s uniform, and knew that this was the Marine Corps commander who was forced in by the above. The vigilance in his eyes flickered away. After hearing Fang Lang''s question, one stood at attention and saluted: "Report, sir! No hard work. This strength can be increased for those of us veteran players. But many of the new fighters who joined the battalion were already a bit overwhelmed. " Fang Lang knew that Duarte was telling the truth. The first batch of marines who followed Fang Lang had received some superficial special forces tactical training from Fang Lang. After entering this naval base, the training of the soldiers has never stopped. So, whether it is physical fitness or quality, it must be far higher than the newly assigned 2,000 recruits. "Since there is still energy left, let''s do more training for ourselves. I hope that in the final selection stage, the old players will not let me down. " The four battalion commanders raised their heads and raised their chests, shouting in unison: "Yes, sir." This loud shout made Colonel Valdo Grama, who was looking at several people, tremble in fright and almost jumped up. Fang Lang was very satisfied with the performance of the few people. "Relax, I called you here today to introduce you. This is Colonel Valdo Granma, the Marine Corps commander appointed by the Department of Defense. Starting this afternoon, he will join your team for training. I hope that you will follow his example, set high standards and strict requirements on yourself, and train hard. Considering that Mr. Colonel is older, his physical fitness may be relatively poor. During the training, you have to help the commander a lot. Be sure to ensure that all staff meet the standards in the Ministry of the Navy inspection six months later. Have no confidence. " Fang Lang''s way of lecturing is completely different from the way Colonel Valdo Grama used to contact him. Hearing that the other party wants everyone to help themselves more during training, their face turns bitter. This is really killing me. How can this help! It is simply supervision! But in the end, the other party said that he must make sure to pass the inspection of the Ministry of the Navy, so that he began to comfort himself, maybe the other party did not deliberately target me. But to meet the requirements of the Ministry of the Navy. The four battalion commanders didn''t expect that Fang Lang would clean up the new chief and let him train with everyone. My heart was full of joy, and there was a hint of sarcasm in my eyes when I looked at the new officer. However, the instinct after rigorous training made them shout again in unison: "Have." Colonel Valdo Grama, who has always been arrogant and domineering, has been in trouble since getting off the plane yesterday. The initiative that I wanted to grasp was completely lost before I knew it. Now you even have to train with ordinary soldiers. If I can''t persist at that time, I will definitely lose face and lose my prestige. While thinking about whether there is any way to escape, the four battalion commanders shouted again. His legs were so frightened that his legs gave way, and he almost fell down. Fang Lang noticed his strangeness at a glance. He could not help but recall the information he had collected about Colonel Valdo Grama. Relying on his wife to get the position, talking without brains, arrogant, arrogant, domineering, not taking human life seriously, and being strong. No matter how you look at these character traits, you shouldn''t be able to handle them so easily! The shouting of the soldiers in unison can make the opponent almost unsteady, which does not match the intelligence! Could it be that someone dropped the package? Wait, relying on the wife to take the position and the son-in-law was born, the status in the family should not be high. He was kicked from the army to the navy, and he didn''t hear of any disturbances in the army department, or his father-in-law''s influence has declined. Either he was marginalized by his father-in-law. Reminiscent of his father-in-law being an old-fashioned military officer, most of the real power in the Ministry of National Defense are officers of the Brazilian Expeditionary Force who participated in the European War. These people have accepted the so-called democratic ideas in Europe and America, will they conflict with the old-school ideas? The answer is yes. Then, the possibility that his father-in-law''s influence is declining is very high. Maybe this appointment is the last bit of friendship he needs. Even if it wasn''t a decline in influence, it was marginalized by his father-in-law. It can only show that Colonel Valdo Grama is not as confident as he has shown. The psychological level of later generations believes that a person will show what he lacks. Then the colonel''s toughness and domineering bridge might be due to this mentality! Combined with the performance of the other party after being severely reprimanded by him. The possibility of this situation is very high. If this is the case, the guy in front of him is simply a paper tiger! Grandpa Mao did not lie, all imperialism is a paper tiger. This old boy is probably just a paper tiger with no appearance. Thinking of this, Fang Lang decided to make a good preparation for the opponent. Pretending not to see the other party''s miserable performance, he continued to speak loudly to the four battalion commanders: "Please tell me and your new commander aloud, what is the slogan of our training?" The four battalion commanders reflexively shouted again in unison: "Bleeding and sweating but not tears, Lose skin and flesh without falling behind. " Colonel Valdo Grama heard this slogan, feeling a little parched and pale. Fang Lang didn''t give him a chance to continue thinking, and said loudly to him: "Colonel Valdo Grama, please tell me loudly, do you have the confidence to complete the training mission?" For a while, the office fell into an eerie silence, and everyone''s eyes were on Colonel Valdo Grama. This made Mr. Colonel feel dizzy, his palms were sweating, and his body began to tremble slightly involuntarily. Seeing his performance, the four battalion commanders looked with amusement, sarcasm, and disdain. But Fang Lang was 80% sure in his heart that this guy might really be a paper tiger. The toughness and arrogance shown are all to cover up his lack of confidence. It seems that the son-in-law of the Secretary of the Army is not easy to be! If his speculation is true and he really has some abilities, Fang Lang doesn''t mind keeping him. After all, knowing the real situation of the other party, it is easy to handle the other party! But this guy is actually a waste of life who regards human life as nothing. War only knows to use human life to fill it. They have all been transferred to the Marine Corps, and they are still clinging to the tank theory they learned from the Army. Completely unaware of the difference between the Army and the Marine Corps. I didn''t even think about taking the initiative to study the tactics of the Marine Corps. This is not what a straw bag is. It seems that General Crook has also misread it! However, there is no hurry to get him away now. If the military rank and qualifications of his own people are not high enough, then a new trouble may arise. Compared with an uncontrollable newcomer, this guy in front of him is obviously more in line with his own interests. Coughed twice to remind Colonel Valdo Grama, Fang Lang softened his tone and said: "Colonel Valdo Grama, do you have confidence?" The four battalion commanders all felt chills when they heard Fang Lang''s slightly gentle tone. Colonel Valdo Grama finally came to his senses, and said nervously: "Have confidence." Hearing that the other party finally answered his question, Fang Lang smiled with satisfaction. "It''s good to have confidence, then you go down and get to know each other. Duarte, you take Mr. Colonel to the logistics department to get the navy uniform. As an officer of the Marine Corps, what''s the matter with always wearing the army uniform. Colonel Valdo Granma changed into his naval training uniform in the afternoon and reported to the training ground on time. Understand? " The four battalion commanders responded in unison, but Colonel Valdo Granma seemed a little timid, hesitant to speak. Fang Lang ignored him, but picked up the documents on the table and read them. Colonel Valdo Granma saw this situation and knew it was time to leave. He could only follow a battalion commander out of Fang Lang''s office. And took the initiative to close the door. What Mr. Colonel didn''t know was that the document Fang Lang read was the background information about the Colonel. Including every word the colonel said after coming out of the airport yesterday, it is recorded in detail here. Fang Lang focused on intelligence personnel''s description of the interactions and conversations between the colonel and his wife. Judging from the content described in this document, the relationship between the Colonel and his wife is still very good, and Mr. Colonel even has a few performances of spoiling his wife and being crazy. As for whether these are real or a show, we have to wait for confirmation from the intelligence department. Fang Lang cannot be blamed for being too cautious, it is because the position of the Marine Corps commander is too important. Although there is a guess about his performance today, a guess is a guess after all, and a guess without verification is just fantasy. Picked up the phone and called the second department of the logistics department again. Soon Lieutenant Sirio Leitch came to Fang Lang''s office, and Fang Lang told the other party what he discovered today and his conjecture. Lieutenant Sirio Leitch did not expect that Fang Lang would come to such an incredible conclusion. After pondering for a moment, Lieutenant Sirio Leitch said: "Sir, it is very simple to confirm this situation. We only need to send people to Rio de Janeiro to find out whether the original Minister of War''s attitude towards his son-in-law is really as the officer guessed. Or the current influence of Mr. Secretary of the Army has really declined. However, the identity of the other party may not be suitable for colleagues from the Brazilian Intelligence Agency to investigate. Maybe it might attract other people''s attention. If it doesnt work! Today I personally went to Rio de Janeiro. " Fang Lang understands that Lieutenant Sirio Leitch is right. To confirm this guess, he just needs to investigate the situation of Mr. Colonel''s father-in-law. But the identity of the other party is too sensitive. If the direction of this guess is wrong, it may cause serious consequences. (end of this chapter) Chapter 244: catch the tail Chapter 244 caught the tail After much consideration, Fang Lang rejected Lieutenant Sirio Reich''s proposal to go to Rio de Janeiro to investigate in person. Although Lieutenant Sirio Reich is now working at his own naval base, his actual job is still the head of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, the Natal distribution. As the head of a local intelligence department, he left his job and went to the capital to investigate the situation of the former Minister of the Army. Once someone found out, things would be a big deal. got up and patted Lieutenant Sirio Leitch on the shoulder, Fang Lang smiled and said: "You don''t need to go there yourself, I have many friends in the capital. We dont need to investigate. For those of us who dont know the situation, these news may be intelligence, but for some people, they are just gossip after dinner. I came here because I noticed that in this report, your people mentioned that they were going to attack the guards around Mr. Colonel. Has it already started? " "Sir, this plan has already begun. As far as we know, these guards are not so much guards as servants, and they have completely lost their sense of honor as soldiers. I think we''ll get to that soon. " "Very well, these people around us will definitely be able to provide us with more accurate information. Although we now have some guesses about the situation, we must not let our guard down. It is definitely not enough to be the son-in-law of the Minister of War for someone who can become a colonel officer. Maybe he has some special talents! " "Yes, sir, I see. Please rest assured that our people will soon infiltrate Mr. Colonel''s entourage to ensure that all actions of Mr. Colonel cannot escape your eyes. " Fang Lang nodded very satisfied. He couldn''t overemphasize intelligence work. With fast and accurate intelligence support, Fang Lang would not blindly do anything and make any decision. After Lieutenant Sirio Leitch left, Fang Lang directly called Major Blackwell''s office. "Haha Fang, I know you will definitely call me. You don''t need to say, I know you want to ask me about your new colleague, right? " As soon as he heard Blackwell''s laughter, Fang Lang knew that he had made the right call. "Okay! It seems that I don''t need to ask, brother, you have already found out something for me, right?" "Of course, Fang, we are good brothers, your affairs are mine affairs, of course I want to help you pay attention! If you dont call me today, I will call you. " "It seems that brothers have gained a lot! Tell me quickly, what have you found out for me? " "Brother, I definitely don''t need to tell you some obvious information. I only tell you one thing today. You must remember not to spread this matter, otherwise it will be a scandal for our Brazilian army. " Blackwell''s words stunned Fang Lang. His new colleague was also involved in the scandal of the Brazilian army? what''s going on. "Dude, you know who I am. I just want to know about some new colleagues and information about the status of their parents and elders. I am not very interested in scandals. I dont think you need to tell me this kind of thing. " Fang Lang didn''t dare to be interested in the scandals in the Brazilian army. After all, there are some things that can be learned in depth, but the less you know about some things, the better. After all, curiosity will kill the cat. Dont be too curious about everything, especially this kind of thing that affects the reputation of the entire army. Its better to know a little less. As the head of the counterintelligence department of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, Blackwell still has great power. It is very normal to be able to learn some secret information in the army. However, I am the military chief officer of the main force of the navy, and some things are not necessarily suitable for me to know. "Haha Fang, I just like your character. This scandal happened to be related to your new colleague. I got the news that your new colleague sold a batch of weapons and equipment brought back from Europe. Using this money to buy a property in Rio de Janeiro, I dont know who reported it to the Ministry of War. The military bosses notified his father-in-law directly, which made his father-in-law lose face and was very embarrassed. However, in the end this matter was suppressed. But he couldnt survive in the army. Just when you were about to form the Marine Corps, his father-in-law put on an old face and approached Mr. President. " Good guy, you are brave enough. How dare they sell the arms brought back from Europe. In this way, it seems that General Crook is worried. Is this an act of mixing sand from the army into the navy? After thinking about it, Fang Lang denied it again. This matter is only known to the Brazilian Ministry of War, and outsiders do not know. Could it be that no one in the Department of the Army is willing to take the initiative to come to the Navy, and it happens that Colonel Valdo Granma has such a serious problem, and the chiefs of the Department of the Army are selling the face of the former Secretary of the Army. Here comes a smooth sailing, which solves this candidate to enter the navy! Think about the background of this Mr. Colonel, the son-in-law of the former Secretary of the Army. He has been serving in the Army. So, this is the perfect sand for the occasion. However, this Mr. Colonel is also courageous enough! Even the idea of ??playing arms. "Selling arms? Is it just this time, or has it always been done like this! This will not be a long-term and stable arms business, will it? If this is the case, it doesn''t make sense for him to be the only one involved! Could it be that the former Secretary of the Army is the main culprit, and this guy is just a handler? " Fang Lang blurted out involuntarily, expressing his doubts. This situation is not impossible! After all, it''s money! Not shabby. According to what Fang Lang learned, this Colonel Valdo Granma has a very ordinary family background and was born in an ordinary peasant family in Amazonas. After joining the army, I had the opportunity to go out of the countryside and get in touch with the colorful world outside. As far as this guy''s appearance is concerned, it is indeed in line with the aesthetics of the Western world in this era, that is, we often say that people are handsome. Even now that he is middle-aged, he is still handsome. His wife, Fang Lang, had never seen her before, so she didn''t know what she looked like, but she was probably overwhelmed by this guy''s handsomeness. Otherwise, the dignified daughter of the Minister of the Army must also look down on a small soldier from the countryside! "Brother! Your mind is really fast, but this time you must be wrong. Our armys original equipment was not good, and it could even be said to be backward. We counted the batch of arms purchased from Germany before the war, and there was no shortage. More importantly, the home of our Minister of the Army has a huge coffee plantation, and there is also a lot of land in Rio de Janeiro. It should not be in the business of reselling arms. According to the information I got from the War Department, this Colonel Valdo Granma should be doing this business for the first time, and he was easily found out by the War Department. " Hearing that Blackwell overturned his inference, Fang Lang shrugged indifferently. After all, this was the idea that popped up in his mind, and he didn''t expect to find the truth directly by himself. "It would be interesting if this guy really did this business for the first time, what made him take such a big risk? Is he short of money? As an army colonel, he should not be short of money! Even if it is a lack of money, why is it not short of money before, but now it is short of money? " "Haha Fang, do you want to be a detective? Let me tell you this! Why he did this business we don''t know, and we don''t want to know. We just need to know that he really did this business and the evidence was found. This matter was not investigated by our Intelligence Bureau, but an investigation launched by their Army Department after receiving the report letter. And the case is closed, we can''t touch this case again, you know what I mean? " Of course Fang Lang understands what Blackwell means, you can take the cases that others have closed and investigate further. The most important thing is that the party involved in this case is still the son-in-law of the Secretary of the Army, even if the Secretary of the Army has pushed it down. But the person involved is also a colonel and officer, and some things should be done in moderation. Otherwise, you just dont understand the rules of officialdom. "I understand, I''m just discussing with you. Because these are suspicious points! But you''re right, the War Department has closed the case, so let''s not delve too deeply into it. Your news has helped me a lot. Didnt say anything, Im going to Rio de Janeiro in the next two days, when I meet up with you, lets get together. Last time we found a great place to meet up. " "Then let''s talk about it, what I''m waiting for is your words. I heard Tiqi tell me, but unfortunately, our wallets are not thick enough, so we are just waiting for you, the big boss, to come and show me! " Of course Fang Lang understood what Blackwell was talking about. This reminded him of the mansion he arranged for Radia Redondo to buy, and he didn''t know how it was cleaned up now. If the packing is done, I can just play with everyone in my navy club, which is much safer than going outside. It seems that this time I go to Rio de Janeiro to have a look. Of course Fang Lang would not refuse Blackwell''s request. This friend was of great help to him. Fang Lang must maintain this relationship. So, I readily agreed to the other party''s request. Then the two of them bragged again and again, and it took a full half an hour before they hung up the phone. After hanging up the phone, Fang Lang fell into deep thought. He felt that there must be a reason for Colonel Valdo Grama to sell the munitions. Just like what he and Blackwell said, Mr. Colonel, who was not short of money before, why is he short of money now. What is the reason for the lack of money? Why should the money from selling arms be used to buy another property? Is the house I lived in bad? Since the old Minister of the Army did not know about his behavior, the reason for his lack of money must have nothing to do with his family. Or is there any other reason? Lighted a cigar, leaned on the office chair, and looked at the sea view outside the window, Fang Lang fell into deep thought. Slowly, one by one thoughts came to his mind, and were dismissed by him one by one. Finally, Fang Lang thought of the most likely explanation, and he no longer hesitated. Found General Clark of the Advisory Group, and after General Clark''s introduction, he met Lieutenant General Mark who was in charge of commanding the Brazilian Expeditionary Force. After several twists and turns, I found the U.S. military liaison officer who was in the expeditionary force and was in charge of docking with Colonel Valdo Grama. And the information provided by the US military liaison officer to Fang Lang made Fang Lang confirm his conjecture. A fox-like smile appeared on his face involuntarily. (end of this chapter) Chapter 245: knowledge Chapter 245 Knowledge Just when Fang Lang was very happy to catch Colonel Valdo Grama''s tail. An immigrant ship departing from his hometown Shanghai docked in Porto Alegre, Rio Grande do Sul. As the ships docked, the pier quickly became lively. The immigration company of Fangyuan Group now accepts a batch of immigrants from their hometown almost every two days. Sometimes there are three or five ships in a fleet, and sometimes there are only one or two ships. The staff of the immigration company already has a very mature resettlement process. Rio Grande do Sul alone has received more than 20,000 immigrants from their hometowns, not counting the numbers in Natal, Sao Paulo, and Rio de Janeiro. According to the statistics of Fangyuan Immigration Company, the number of laborers recruited from their hometowns to work in Brazil through Fangyuan Labor Service Company has reached 30,000. I took the initiative to apply to the Fangyuan immigration company, and there are already more than 8,000 immigrants who have immigrated to Brazil. That is to say, from October 1945 to the end of April 1946, the Fangyuan Group immigrated from their hometown in six months, and the number of people who have landed in Brazil has reached more than 38,000. Some of these people were assigned to the construction sites of various factories nearby. It was planned that after the construction of the factories was completed, they would enter the factories and become workers. Of course, some workers with mason skills were directly assigned to construction companies and became professional construction workers. Most workers choose to continue to be farmers because they are farmers themselves. Most of these farmers were arranged to work on farms purchased by Fangyuan Group in Rio Grande do Sul. Another part of them settled in Natal and owned their own land through loans. Some laborers born as fishermen were arranged to join the fishery company jointly established by Fang Lang and the retired Colonel Parisi, and became fishery workers. "Hey! Sir, look, there are quite a few Chinese here! Many of the people in charge of registration on the pier are Chinese! It seems that we Chinese can stand firm in this place! " A young man in his twenties said to a middle-aged man in his thirties beside him. "Didn''t the people from the immigration company say that? It''s all thanks to Mr. Fang. In Brazil, Mr. Fang is the backer of all our Chinese. " The middle-aged man looked at the scene in front of him, obviously heaving a sigh of relief. It seems that this labor service company is really not lying, and it didn''t sell everyone as piglets. also asked everyone about their occupations and jobs they are good at, and respected the opinions of the workers in arranging the work. This made him feel relieved. There are more than 30 people in their line. Although they look no different from ordinary people, if you observe carefully, you will find that the eyes of these people are obviously different from those of ordinary people. Especially the headed middle-aged man has sharp eyes. It can be seen at a glance from the Chinese in charge of registration that many of them should be people who have just immigrated here. Because everyone''s demeanor and spirit are still somewhat different from those Chinese who originally lived in Brazil. They are not laborers recommended by Hongmen or government officials, but immigrants who applied through immigration companies themselves. So, they line up on the pier and don''t need to line up with the laborers. Instead, there is a channel dedicated to direct registration of immigrants. There are two staff members of the Immigration Bureau in the channel. With the cooperation of two local Chinese in Brazil, they are responsible for handling the immigration procedures for the Chinese who voluntarily apply for immigration. Because Brazil has always been in a state of sparsely populated land, the demand for immigrants in Brazil is very large. There are not many restrictions on immigration. During this period, the state of Rio Grande do Sul belonged to a remote area of ??Brazil. It was the southernmost state of Brazil and bordered Uruguay. It is also one of the three states in Brazil south of the Tropic of Capricornus. As the hometown of Brazilian barbecue, the agriculture and animal husbandry here is very developed. In later generations, it was the primary agricultural and pastoral area in Brazil. The output of soybeans, wheat and corn accounted for about half of the country, rice accounted for a quarter, and wine accounted for three quarters. Produced here. The reason why Fang Lang gave priority to immigrants here was because he took a fancy to the excellent climatic and geographical conditions here. This is one of the lowest altitude areas in Brazil except the Amazon rainforest, and the subtropical climate can also allow immigrants from their hometown to quickly adapt to the environment here. The reason why the staff of the Immigration Bureau can come to the dock to work on-site is also because Fang Lang wants to allow immigrants from his hometown to quickly gain a foothold in Rio Grande do Sul. A large amount of investment has been made here, such as the chemical fertilizer and pesticide factory of Nice Company, the pharmaceutical factory of Fangyuan Group, the Aston Martin car factory and so on. Fang Lang plans to build Conrad Zuze''s computer research institute and future universities here. At the same time, the director of the state''s immigration bureau is the younger brother of Fang Lang''s old superior, Colonel Parisi. Coupled with Fang Lang''s status in the Brazilian army, the influence of the Fangyuan Group in Brazil. The government of Rio Grande do Sul has no choice but to welcome these immigrants. The immigration procedures were handled very quickly. Under the guidance of the staff, everyone provided the immigration documents issued by the immigration company when boarding the ship, completed the information registration, and after being arranged to take a photo, they were told that they could go to the immigration company Go to the specific consultation to select a suitable resettlement site. Everyone walked out of the pier, and soon saw several buses parked on the side of the road outside the pier, with many signposts along the way. It may be that most people are illiterate, and there are instructions recorded on gramophones, which are played non-stop. This surprised everyone. Following the guidance of the signs, everyone came to a vehicle marked to the immigration company. The driver was a black guy, and everyone was worried that they would not be able to communicate. As a result, the black guy spoke directly in half-baked Chinese: "Certificate!" Everyone understood what the other party meant, and handed over to the other party a certificate with a blue seal that the staff of the Immigration Bureau had just handed over to them for inspection. The middle-aged man headed by him could tell at a glance that this black guy must also be illiterate. Because he only glanced at the blue stamp, he pointed back and signaled the other party to get on the bus. He understands that the immigrant''s seal and the laborer''s seal should not be the same color. Here I have to talk about why laborers and immigrants are treated differently. This is not selling piglets. The cultural instructor on the ship has already made it very clear that the people who voluntarily immigrate do it at their own expense, so their living environment on the ship is better than that of laborers. Ordinary workers need to work and live in Brazil for one year before they can actively apply for immigration. After becoming an official immigrant, you can buy land in the hands of the local government or others, open shops, factories, etc. The immigration at their own expense, because they are all people with a certain economic foundation. So, after obtaining immigration documents in Brazil, you can directly buy land from local governments and individuals. This is different from the first batch of immigrants who were able to buy farmland in Natal through loans after they landed in Natal. After all, Fang Lang confiscated those lands from the Yakubu family, and it didn''t cost much. The land in Rio Grande do Sul needs to be purchased by the Fangyuan Group with real money, and the cost will definitely exceed that of the land in Natal. However, in the later stage, Fangyuan Group is also planning to issue loans so that everyone can own their own land. The main purpose of the early stage is to bring everyone together to learn the local language, adapt to the local environment, and unify everyone''s thinking. Therefore, new immigrants and laborers have to concentrate on studying for two hours after work every day. The content of the study includes Portuguese, Chinese, and ideological education content about the Fang family''s selfless help to everyone. At the same time, according to the different job content, vocational skills training will also be carried out. Everyone understood that the black guy might only know a few simple Chinese words, so they lost interest in consulting. Soon, the vehicle was full. The vehicle slowly left the pier and drove into the urban area. The exotic customs along the way dazzled everyone. Some architectural styles have been seen in Shanghai, and some have not been seen. While everyone was pointing and discussing, the vehicle drove into a four-story building after driving for half an hour. Everyone saw the big Fangyuan immigration company on the door at a glance, and it was obvious that they had arrived at their destination. Get out of the car one by one and walk into the immigration company building. There are two Chinese women sitting on two desks on the left. When they saw someone coming in, they greeted them directly: "A new immigrant who just arrived? Please come to my side to register first. We will provide you with free board and lodging for five days. I hope everyone can decide their future destination within five days. If you want to live here for more than five days, you need to pay for the board and lodging yourself. " Without waiting for everyone to respond, he has already introduced the rules here. Everyone glanced at each other, a few people stepped forward to register, and a few people were looking around. The young man came to the middle-aged man again and said: "Sir, I feel like this is a hotel." The middle-aged man didn''t speak, but just nodded. Seeing that there is a double door facing the door, I looked around and found that no one was looking here, so I walked forward. Pushing open the door, I found that behind it was a patio surrounded by houses, with a length and width of more than 30 meters and a very large area. Looking around, I found out that this place is a whole with the immigration company''s four-story building. This is a back-shaped building with many windows on each floor. It seems that there should be more than one hundred rooms here. In the courtyard, there were some Chinese sitting in twos and threes. Everyone was chatting and laughing, and some people were flipping through a booklet in their hands. Everyone seemed unaware of his appearance, and they were still doing their own things. The movement of him pushing the door open was a bit loud, but no one came to stop it, and no one even came to ask. The middle-aged man saw that everyone didn''t care about him, so he took the initiative to go up, sat down next to a middle-aged man who was reading a booklet and said: "Where did this brother come from?" When the man noticed someone approaching, he raised his head and looked over. Hearing what the middle-aged man said, he smiled and said: "I''m from Baoding. It''s been two days since I boarded the ship in Tianjin. How about you, brother?" "I just arrived today, I came from Shanghai, and I''m not very familiar with the situation here. So I want to learn from seniors like you. What kind of regulations are here! " "Oh! My brother just came here today! No wonder. If you are senior or not, I will come two days earlier than you. As for the regulations! Heck! I am also researching it! " As he spoke, he raised the booklet in his hand. (end of this chapter) Chapter 246: Treasure at home Chapter 246 The treasure arrives at home The middle-aged man saw the brochure in the other party''s hand printed with Chinese characters "Guide to Immigrants in Brazil". "Oh! What does this guide say?" "It''s nothing. The main thing is to introduce the situation of each state in Brazil and some customs in Brazil. and the areas we recommend emigrating to. " "Aren''t we going to make assignments here?" "Haha. Brother, do you want the immigration company to assign us directly? Workers will manage occupational allocation according to the skills they have mastered. We are immigrants, of course we can decide for ourselves where we go, this is what the culture teachers call freedom, this is our freedom. " After hearing what the other party said, the middle-aged man was obviously relieved. It seems that this immigration company is not a scam. "Brother, where do you get this brochure?" "Hey! Brother, haven''t you registered at the front desk yet? Where''s the little girl who will explain it clearly to everyone!" "Hehe. There are a lot of people queuing in front, I''m not thinking about it, let''s look around! Brother, have you considered where to immigrate? " "Hi! Such a big matter, how can it be so easy to make a decision! I would like to find a big city to start a small business, but the biggest problem now is the language barrier. Hesitating whether to buy a small farm nearby and settle down first. " "Look at this, my brother is also a businessman! I dont know what kind of business you are in? " "I made you laugh, brother, I opened a clothing store in Jinmen, and the business is barely getting by. But this little Japan is so good in Jinmen, so my brother had no choice but to go back to Baoding. I thought that Little Japan would surrender, and I could go back to Jinmen to continue doing business. Unexpectedly, as soon as we arrived in Jinmen, my son got into something he shouldn''t have, and had no choice but to find a place to hide. Isn''t this just the time to see the promotion of the immigration company! " "The old man has been here for two days and feels that this immigration company is a scam?" "Hi! Brother is a cautious person, and I was worried at first. However, I was relieved after two days. The immigration company does not restrict your freedom at all, you can do whatever you want. I just went out for a stroll this morning, wanting to see the local environment, but I dont understand the language, so I can only guess. Its really hard. " "Oh! How is the situation outside, no one is embarrassing you!" "Hi! I just encountered a police check of documents. This place is the same as my hometown. They just want to take the opportunity to extort money. Fortunately, I exchanged some local reals at the front desk! It took some money to get rid of them. " After chatting with this immigrant who came a few days earlier than himself, the middle-aged man chatted with other people. Seeing that the door he came in was pushed open, a young man nodded to himself. The middle-aged talent got up and left the patio, and returned to the front desk. The little girl at the front desk handled some formalities for him with ease. and repeatedly explained: "Sir, you have just arrived in Porto Alegre, and the documents from the Immigration Bureau will not be delivered until tomorrow morning. If you go to the street without a document, it will be very troublesome to be checked by the police. So, sir, please try to stay within our company today. The first room on the left hand side of the corridor behind me is our company''s immigration consultation center. You can go there and learn about the matters that immigrants need to pay attention to with our colleagues. You can also go to the room on the right to attend some training courses. We provide language and vocational training courses here for a long time. After you have determined the place of immigration, you can also go to the office of our local immigration company to participate in these trainings or seek help. Please remember that at any time, Fangyuan Immigration Company will be your permanent home. When you encounter any difficulties in Brazil or need help, please contact us as soon as possible, and we will provide assistance within our ability. " I don''t know why, but the middle-aged man felt very relieved when he heard the little girl''s words. I am in a foreign country, and there is a place that tells you that it will always be your home, and you can come to him when you need help. This also made the middle-aged man feel relieved a lot. In the next five days, the middle-aged man played around in the urban area of ??Porto Alegre, found several places where laborers from his hometown worked, and asked everyone about their work and life. I also rented a car and went out of the urban area to two immigration points in the suburbs to check the resettlement situation. Although there are still some minor flaws, he is generally satisfied. Having a clear understanding of the lives of immigrants and laborers from his hometown, he was completely relieved. The middle-aged man who returned to the Fangyuan immigration company in Porto Alegre found the little girl at the front desk and said: "Miss, please contact Chief Fang Langfang for me, and say that a friend from my hometown wants to visit him." Fang Lang''s identity, of course everyone in the Fangyuan Group knows. Since the other party can call Fang Lang''s name and identity, he is obviously someone who knows Fang Lang. The little girl didn''t dare to refuse, so she could only say: "Hello, sir, I don''t know what to call you! I can report your request, specifically whether Chief Fang is willing to see you. Still waiting for the above reply. " The middle-aged man did not hide anything, nodded and said: "My name is Zhong Ze, you can tell him that I am an old acquaintance in Shanghai and Waihai, and I am here to pay a visit." It turned out that this man turned out to be Zhong Ze, the military command major who boarded the Fanglang warship in the outer seas of Shanghai, but I dont know why the good military command major appeared in Porto Alegre, Brazil, thousands of miles away. Zhong Ze, who was lying in the immigration company''s room, received a notification from the immigration company staff about two hours later, and Fang Lang agreed with him. But because Fang Lang is far away from the Natal Naval Base in the northeast corner of Brazil, Zhong Ze needs to go there by plane. Hearing that Fang Lang was willing to see him, Zhong Ze was obviously relieved. The current situation of this group of people is actually similar to that of defecting. After all, the rule of the military command is that they are allowed to enter and not allowed to leave. They, the backbone members of the military command Shanghai station, suddenly appeared in Brazil at this time. Obviously abnormal. There was no airport in Porto Alegre during this period, so everyone had to pack their luggage and take a car for a whole day before arriving in Sao Paulo. After a night''s rest in Sao Paulo, fly to Natal Airport. When Zhong Ze and others set off from Porto Alegre, Fang Lang was counting the treasures brought back from Germany by Qi Qingshan and Zhuang Xintian at the Brazilian Development Bank vault in Natal. After careful counting, the amount of gold transported back this time reached nearly 200 tons, worth more than 200 million US dollars. With this money, Fang Lang no longer has to worry about a shortage of funds for many of his projects. "Is everything going smoothly along the way?" Fang Lang patted Qi Qingshan and Zhuang Xintian on the shoulders. Looking at the tired expressions on their faces, it was obvious that they were very tired, but Fang Lang probably had too much mental pressure. After all, with such a huge amount of wealth, the two of them slept with one eye open the whole time, for fear of any mistakes. Dike is wary of everyone around him, worried that someone will take advantage of Cai and do something that will kill him. Fortunately, everyone is an active soldier after all, resisting the greed in their hearts, and transporting this wealth back to Brazil without any risk. "Boss, the journey went smoothly, but I was so nervous all the way that I couldn''t even sleep. Fortunately, arrived safely. " Qi Qingshan also let out a sigh of relief. He understood Fang Lang''s intention of arranging him and Zhuang Xintian to **** these treasures together. Both of them are Fang Lang''s most trusted people. Fortunately, everyone has withstood the test this time. Zhuang Xintian said a little awkwardly: "Boss, am I really the battalion commander now? This. I, I am a second lieutenant platoon leader. I was directly promoted to battalion commander. Will it affect me badly? " Fang Lang patted his arm with a smile and said: "We are brothers, I don''t promote you, whoever I promote. how? Don''t have the confidence to be the battalion commander? If you are not confident, bring it up, and I will replace it with someone else. " "Alas! No, no, there is no confidence in this. Obey your orders, just follow your command! I am good at this. " Zhuang Xintian said in a hurry. Hearing that Zhuang Xintian took the opportunity to show his loyalty, Fang Lang smiled and didn''t say much. Qi Qingshan said softly at the side: "Boss, I just heard at the door that the Marine Corps has a new military director? What if he and we are not on the same page. " "What, isn''t the chief of the Marine Corps Duarte?" Zhuang Xintian also asked in confusion. Fang Lang smiled at the two of them and said: "Don''t worry! It''s okay, I am the supreme commander of the First Fleet, so what are you afraid of?" At this time, Fang Lang had already grasped Colonel Valdo Grama''s weakness, and after Fang Lang returned from receiving the aircraft carrier from the United States this time, he would be able to easily hold him. At that time, no matter whether the opponent is a real tiger or a paper tiger, they will not be able to escape from the palm of their hands. Seeing Fang Lang''s confident expression, the two knew that they didn''t need to worry about these problems. At this moment, Fang Lang was already thinking about how to use such a large sum of wealth. It is not the style of a capitalist to save money. This is a period of rapid economic development, and it goes without saying to support the company''s development. What else is there besides the business development of Fangyuan Group? Thinking of the goal I set for myself, it is to make the Chinese live better in Brazil and have a higher social status. In addition to increasing the proportion of Chinese in the Brazilian population, it is also necessary to support the Chinese middle class. Most of the current Chinese are farmers and workers. Even if they become the middle class, it is estimated that life will improve. But improving social status is a long process. So is there any way to speed up this progress! Fang Lang fell into deep thought. In addition to having money, a high status requires power. Otherwise, if you have money, you will become a fat pig in captivity like the Chinese brothers in Southeast Asia, and will be slaughtered at any time. If you want to have power, of course you have to work in government departments and the army. The navy has its own, and it can easily open a promotion channel for the Chinese. At least in its first fleet, it can give priority to promoting Chinese soldiers. The current strength of the Air Force is still very weak. It is a good time for Chinese infiltration. Once Chinese appear in the top ranks of the Air Force, the promotion channel for Chinese in the Air Force will also be opened. Of course, the army cannot let it go. The Brazilian army is not large now, as long as the Chinese are encouraged to actively join the army. In the future, the power of Chinese in the Brazilian military will become decisive. In this way, it can be guaranteed that if any force wants to take action against the Chinese in Brazil, it has to see if the Chinese who have the military power will agree. Brazil is a capitalist country. In addition to working in government departments, you can also participate in local parliamentary elections. As for being a member of parliament, apart from having money, you need people to support and vote. After the Chinese population reaches a certain number, the number of Chinese parliamentarians will increase significantly. (end of this chapter) Chapter 247: old friend to cast Chapter 247 The old friend came to vote In order for the Chinese to develop rapidly in the military and political circles, it is necessary to ensure that there are a large number of aspiring young people among the Chinese who are educated, have ideals, and have common goals. How can this be done? The answer is simple, invest in education, cultivate and educate Chinese youth from an early age, so that everyone can form a unified goal. Only in this way can all the Chinese maintain a consistent goal height. Even if there are a few bananas occasionally, it will not be able to change the overall ambition of the Chinese. Thinking of this, Fang Lang has a goal and direction. My own development in the army has now entered a bottleneck period, and it is time to settle down. During this period, it is very important to have a new goal and direction. At noon the next day, Fang Lang met Zhong Ze, the former military major intelligence officer who rushed over from Porto Alegre, at a cafe outside the Natal Naval Base. "Mr. Fang, thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to meet me." This is the second time Fang Lang saw Zhong Ze. It seemed that there was not much change, but Fang Lang could feel that the other party had obviously lost his original energy. "Major Zhong, now that the war has been won, why don''t you enjoy the fruits of victory in your hometown, why did you come to our remote place?" Fang Lang''s words made Zhong Ze smile bitterly, and said with a bitter expression: "Officer Fang was joking, I''m no longer a military commander. From the moment I boarded the immigrant ship in Brazil, all of us were already deserters from the military command. Once the whereabouts are discovered by the military commander, they will be sanctioned. " "Oh! Why is this? Shouldn''t you really have a bright future? Why did you leave your hometown at this time? " Fang Lang really finds it strange. After all, these people obviously didn''t come to him to lurk here. This place is still too far away from his hometown, so there is no need to pay too much attention to the movement here. Even if a large number of people have moved here from their hometown, it should not be a big deal to their hometown. After all, the hometown should be undercurrents now, and the forces of all parties are on the eve of desperate competition. How can they have the energy to pay attention to an immigration company that can send penicillin and large amounts of wealth to officials at all levels? "I don''t know, has Mr. Fang heard about Boss Dai''s plane accident?" Zhong Ze was willing to go all out, and said directly to Fang Lang. When Fang Lang heard this, his heart moved, and he immediately understood who the other party was talking about, but he didn''t expect the other party to bring it up on his own initiative. Although in this era, he has not heard of it. But I have heard of the decryption program in the previous life, but it is all inferred by later generations based on historical data, and only the person involved knows the real situation. He nodded and said: "Well, I have heard about it, but I don''t understand the reasons for it. Is this matter related to you? " Zhong Ze repeatedly waved his hands and said: "No, no, Chief Fang, don''t misunderstand. We have nothing to do with Boss Dai''s plane accident. I mean, we were affected by this incident and had to flee our hometown. " This made Fang Lang even more curious. "Oh! Tell me about it." Zhong Ze looked hesitant, but finally gritted his teeth and said: Actually, the people we help are all Boss Dais cronies. When Boss Dai was around, we received a lot of preferential treatment. But after Boss Dais accident happened, those of us began to be squeezed out, and most of us retreated from our original positions. This is also a normal situation. After all, most of us are prepared for the emperor and the courtiers. But later, someone actually blamed us for the accident of Boss Dais plane and wanted to use us as a scapegoat. Of course we cant admit it. But that **** who was the secretary of Boss Dai actually ordered us to be escorted back to Jinling for trial. Fortunately, I had some connections in Nanjing back then, and we got wind of it in advance. So, directly boarded your immigration ship. " Taking a deep look at Zhong Ze, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Are you sure, this matter really has nothing to do with you? If this is true, it will be even more unclear for you to run away! " Zhong Ze sighed deeply before saying: "That''s right! Why don''t we know what you said? But you dont know the military command. Once we are indeed escorted back to Jinling, no matter whether the final result shows that it has nothing to do with us, we will not be able to escape the order of execution. Both left and right are dead, and we can only choose to escape from death. " "If that''s the case, what about your family? As far as I know, there is no such thing as saying that military commanders cant harm their families! " "I didn''t expect Mr. Fang to understand the military commander''s style of work so well. As soon as we heard the news, we notified our family members to find a way to board the Brazilian immigrant ship nearby. As for the current result, we don''t know. Whether they can escape or get together in Brazil depends on the arrangement of fate. " Hearing Zhong Ze''s words, Fang Lang smiled and shook his head, noncommittal to the other party''s words. The other party is a professional intelligence officer, lying and acting can''t even be compared with professional actors. Just listen to it as a story, dont take it too seriously. "Since Mr. Zhong has immigrated to Brazil, shouldn''t he hide and avoid being hunted down? Why did you make a special trip to see me? " "Mr. Fang, the news that we hid in Brazil must not be hidden from the eyes of the military commander. No matter where we hide, it is impossible to escape their pursuit. If we go directly to the immigration point, after they find us, we will definitely be defeated by them one by one, and we will definitely die. Brazil is your territory, I came to you, hoping to get your asylum. " This answer was beyond Fang Lang''s expectations. A major intelligence officer in the military command actually told himself that he wanted to seek his own asylum. In Fang Lang''s view, this kind of thing is full of fantasy and attention. Not to mention whether what the other party said is true or false, even if what he said is true, if the military commander knows that he has taken in the other party, will his labor recruitment plan be affected! Fang Lang would not accept that several defected military spies affected his plans. "It''s serious, it''s serious, I''m just a Brazilian naval officer, how can I say that Brazil is my territory! As for asylum, I am even more afraid. After all, the labor recruitment of our Fangyuan Group and our hometown is still going on! If this affects our family''s business, my father will tear me alive. " Zhong Ze didn''t seem surprised by Fang Lang''s refusal, looking at Fang Lang sincerely with his eyes and saying: "Officer Fang, I assure you that everything I say to you today is from the bottom of my heart and will never be adulterated. If there is a false statement, I will die in Zhong Ze''s life. " I don''t know why, but at this moment Fang Lang''s intuition told him that the other party was telling the truth. But Fang Lang doesn''t care whether the other party is telling the truth or a lie, after all, there is not much difference between the truth and the lie to him. Once I take in the other party, I may turn against the government, which may have a very serious impact on the ongoing immigration work. Fang Lang shook his head and said: "Mr. Zhong, it''s not that I don''t believe you. But the fact is like I said, if I really choose to protect you, our business in my hometown may be greatly affected, which we absolutely don''t want to see. " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Zhong Ze smiled and said: "Mr. Fang, you can rest assured that no matter what you do, my hometown will not stop doing business with you." Hearing Zhong Ze''s firm tone, Fang Lang was a little confused, and asked: "Oh! Mr. Zhong, why are you so sure?" "Because Mr. Fang provided penicillin. The officials of the national government have obtained huge benefits from the penicillin you provided, and now even the four major families are involved. So, the current initiative of this business is actually in your hands. instead of my hometown. " Fang Lang didn''t expect this answer, but he felt relieved thinking about Fang Lang. After all, a new war is about to start in my hometown, and stockpiling penicillin is definitely needed by both sides. Therefore, it is not surprising that big capitalists such as the four major families get involved. Once this business has the participation of the four major families, even Lao Jiang will become restrained if he wants to move. No wonder the other party wants to seek shelter from himself. This is certainty, the government dare not do anything to itself! I didnt expect that my position in my hometown would be so important without knowing it. But even so, Fang Lang was really hesitant to ask Fang Lang to accept these generals. After all, the military command has a bad reputation, and if it is not good, it may suffer a backlash. In that case, Fang Lang will be in big trouble. "But even as you said, if I protect you, what good will it bring me? Your roots are in your hometown, and I have no interest in my hometown. " Hearing that Fang Lang was still refusing, but his tone had changed significantly, Zhong Ze was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Fang, although our roots are all in our hometown. However, our skills will definitely help you. There are a total of 33 people in our group, 13 of whom are intelligence agents lurking in Shanghai. The longest time of lurking in Shanghai was seven years, and the shortest was more than four years. Their intelligence collection capabilities are very good, and no clues can escape their eyes. There are eight people who are specialized in intelligence analysis and telecommunications work. Last time, the information about the abnormality of the ship at the Shanghai pier was analyzed by them through some imperceptible clues. The remaining twelve people are excellent action masters, good at camouflage, investigation, assassination and other work. I think our ability will definitely be able to help you. " What Zhong Ze said made Fang Lang a little tempted. These are all real intelligence masters who have fought against the Japanese! The ability is definitely far superior to the group of people in the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, and may even surpass the CIA that has not yet been established. If you use it well, it will indeed become a sharp sword. But will the sword obey his command? In other words, whether it will backfire on me, I am not sure. In the coming Cold War period, the war on the intelligence line is very fierce. Although the Brazil where I am located is not the main battlefield of the two sides, it is also an important area for the two sides to compete for. I don''t want to get involved in this general trend, but I also want to avoid some possible dangers. It is very necessary to have an intelligence force of your own. Zhong Ze saw Fang Lang''s hesitation, and took the initiative to say: "Mr. Fang, you can rest assured of our loyalty. We are all bereaved dogs, and our biggest concern now is our family. If you are concerned, we can move our family to a place you specify. " Fang Lang is very clear about what the other party means. This is to use their family members as hostages for themselves. Once they betray him, he can take their family members to the knife. (end of this chapter) Chapter 248: suspect to use Chapter 248 Suspect wants to use Fang Lang took a deep look at the other party, trying to tell whether the other party was sincere. After all, the other party just said that the family members did not know if they had escaped, and now they said they would use the family members as hostages to gain Fang Lang''s trust. But is family really useful? Who knows if the so-called family members are real family members or fake family members? In Fang Lang''s heart, he was really envious of the skills of these professionals. People say, "Employees are not suspicious, suspects are not." But Fang Lang thinks it should be "you have to be suspicious of people, and you have to use people with suspicion." Fang Lang thought of the reason why the military command is strong, what is it? Is it because of their professional skills? of course not. But because of their identity background, they are violent intelligence agencies of the country, and they are acting on behalf of a country. But, if they follow themselves, will they still be so powerful? Obviously not, no matter how professional they are, it is impossible for them to be stuffed into the Brazilian Intelligence Agency. Even if he wants to infiltrate the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, he will not use them as former military agents, but will train his own staff. No matter how unprofessional the Brazilian Intelligence Agency is, it is impossible to directly recruit some new immigrants of unknown origin. Since they don''t have a strong national background, and now they really need their own asylum, can I take them into my command? After thinking about it again and again, Fang Lang still felt that he could try it. After all, I also need an intelligence force that is entirely my own, although the second department of the logistics department can also use it for myself. But in the final analysis, it is a department of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, and I don''t actually have the right to command them. I have so many factories and enterprises, and many other places, all need some professional intelligence information support. "There is no need to resettle family members. I am not a state agency, and I don''t have that much power and ability. But, sometimes, I do need some intelligence support. How about this! If you are willing to work for me, I can hire you on behalf of the investigation department of Fangyuan Group. Sign a formal employment contract with you. " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Zhong Ze breathed a long sigh of relief. Entering the Fang family''s industry to work seems to them to be working for Fang Lang, and Fang Lang can provide them with shelter. At least the military commander wants to enter Brazil to sanction them, so he must consider the impact of this matter. If you really turn against Fangyuan Group, can the old business of exchanging labor for penicillin continue? Will the four major families in China forgive them? It can only be said that Zhong Ze and the others are thinking too much. Even if the military commander finds their traces, will they send killers at such a high cost to come to Brazil to sanction more than 30 of them. If you want to sanction more than 30 people in a foreign country, you must send at least nearly a hundred people! Whether Juntong still has such energy now, Fang Lang finds it hard to say. After all, it is already May 1946. At this time, Lao Jiang has made up his mind and is ready to act at any time. How could the military commander have the energy to pay attention to some intelligence personnel who fled overseas? Not to mention sending a large group of people thousands of miles away to chase them down. Even if Lao Dai was really killed by them, no one would pay any attention to them. This is the cause of the fear of the military command developed by these military commanders who have lived under the strict family rules of the military command for a long time. "Mr. Fang, thank you so much! Please rest assured, we will let you see the value. " Fang Lang waved his hands indifferently and said: "Needless to say these, everyone gets what they need. The investigation department of the Fangyuan Group can be regarded as a newly established department. Considering that you have just arrived in Brazil, you are unfamiliar with the place and the language. The most important thing now is to get familiar with the situation as soon as possible and learn Portuguese, otherwise you will not be able to work locally. " Speaking of this, Fang Lang seemed to think of something and said: "Oh! No, you can''t say that. Let''s do it! You first enter the immigration company and create a complete identity file information for all Chinese immigrants. If you are short-handed, recruit as many as you think fit from the labor force. I require all Chinese who have obtained immigration status, we must have a complete identity file for him. The identities of direct immigrants are mostly complicated and have certain economic strength. Many people may be traitors who slipped through the net. I am not going to kill them, but I can''t let them escape from their hometown to me to enjoy the happiness. Do you understand me? " As for Fang Lang''s request, how could Zhong Ze not understand. nodded directly and said: "No problem, boss, this is what we do best. Doesnt the labor force need to investigate now? " Zhong Ze''s attitude changed very quickly, and now he has directly entered the role of an employee. There is no sense of disobedience in calling "boss". "How many of you are there, and the number of immigrants is enough for you to check. When the laborers submit their immigration applications, let you review the materials! Well, it seems that there are more than 30 of you, it seems that it is really not enough. In the future, for every Chinese who immigrates into Brazil through our Fangyuan Group, you must create a file for him. I will ask the immigration company to hand over the materials to you for review for each person who submits an immigration application. Only those who pass the review can we help them submit their immigration application. For those with problematic status, let them work in labor positions for a few more years. Think of them as reforming through labor. " Originally, before all immigrants or laborers boarded the ship, the immigration company would fill out a personal file for each immigrant and laborer. After entering Brazil, this information was also handed over to the immigration bureau. But the authenticity of this file is actually very difficult to ensure that it is completely authentic, otherwise there will be no Japanese people pretending to be Chinese and boarding the immigration ship. Fangyuan Group did not have the energy to conduct detailed checks on the backgrounds of these people, mainly because they did not have professional staff. Now that we have these professionals in the military command, we can just organize this work! Immigration and labor are not the same. Many laborers are sold to labor service companies by the Hongmen or the government. Are there any hidden traitors and running dogs? there must be. But they got mixed up and sold to a labor service company, so they probably weren''t some big treacherous people. Even if there are, they will be screened out if they want to apply for immigration. However, those who take the initiative to apply for immigration often flee their hometowns for some reason, especially those who carry huge sums of money and are not serious businessmen. It is very likely that he is a traitor who slipped through the net. "Yes, boss. This is a simple screening job. But it is too far away from my hometown, and some cases may not be verified. If necessary, can we use some means. " Hearing Zhong Ze''s words, Fang Lang was silent for a while. The military command''s method is not an ordinary method, and it might kill someone. This is not what Fang Lang wants to see. It may have a negative impact on the means of immigration. After thinking about it, Fang Lang still refused. "There is no need to resort to means, let''s do this! All those who have doubts will be marked. These people were forcibly sent to less developed inland areas for centralized management and residential surveillance. But if it is found that it is suspected of being Japanese, it is allowed to resort to means, but it cannot cause obvious physical injuries, understand? Be cautious with everyone who needs means. This is Brazil, we have no law enforcement, see what I mean? " Zhong Ze, who was born as an agent of the military command, doesn''t care whether he has law enforcement power or not! Now that the boss has made it clear that the suspected Japanese can resort to tricks, he understands where the bottom line of the boss is. Obviously the boss is very hostile to the Japanese. Then these intelligence agents who have been fighting with the Japanese on the front line of intelligence will certainly not be polite. As for the power of law enforcement, Zhong Ze didn''t even care about it. When did the agents who lurked in the enemy''s territory to obtain intelligence need law enforcement power. "Understood, boss. Then we can start working?" Dont worry, this is only a small part of your work, whats more important is to seize the time to learn the local language and integrate into the local environment. If necessary, we should also recruit some local intelligence personnel and train some intelligence personnel who are loyal to the interests of our Chinese. How about this! We can find a hidden place and secretly build a school for training intelligence personnel. Adopt some children of other skin colors and train them to be our own intelligence officers. I hope that in the future, no matter who he is in Brazil, as long as he wants to be unfavorable to our Chinese forces, we can predict in advance. In addition, our Fangyuan Group will set up many advanced technology research institutions in the future, and all the confidential information in these institutions needs to be protected by you. It may also require you to go to other research institutions to obtain some confidential information we need. I believe these are what you are good at, right? " Zhong Ze didn''t expect that Fang Lang had such high expectations for them. According to Fang Lang''s vision, if their investigation department in the future really has such a huge power, it will be comparable to the current military command. This made Zhong Ze excited and motivated for a while. Actually, Fang Lang was also influenced by later generations of movies, especially the story of the confrontation between the Soviet Union and the United States on the intelligence front during the Cold War, which is even more fascinating. He didn''t want to fight against the intelligence agencies of countries like the United States and the Soviet Union, but he also hoped that he could know the situation in Brazil well. Never again, the upper echelon has contested, upgraded his Marines to brigade level, and picked a commanding officer, all without his knowledge. He was notified until everyone else had settled down. But what Fang Lang didn''t expect was a group of military command agents that he had temporarily accepted. After many years, the investigation department of the Fangyuan Group was turned into an intelligence agency similar to the secret police. Fortunately, because there is no law enforcement authority, most of the time they only conduct intelligence gathering and investigation work. But for those hostile forces and people who went to the important research institutions of the Fangyuan Group to spy on intelligence, the working ability and methods of this investigation department made people look pale. Compared with their harsh methods against the enemy, the methods of those commercial intelligence companies are as gentle and cute as little sheep. Their tentacles in Brazil have penetrated into all aspects of society, and any disturbance in Brazil cannot escape their eyes and ears. (end of this chapter) Chapter 249: hall master Chapter 249 Hall Master Selection In Sao Paulo in May, the weather has already brought a touch of coolness, and the coats that people in the northern hemisphere took off began to appear on the residents of Sao Paulo. This is the second time for Fang Lang to go home after crossing. The first time he was the captain of a Brazilian Navy transport ship. He went home in Blackwell''s jeep. It was the first time he saw Yuanshen''s family, and he was still a little nervous. But this time it was completely different, there was a relaxed and natural feeling of finally returning to my hometown. On the way from the airport to his home, Fang Lang found that Sao Paulo had undergone tremendous changes, especially on the way his vehicle bypassed downtown Sao Paulo and headed to Santos Port. While passing by the industrial park he negotiated with the municipal government, Fang Lang discovered that the current park is no longer what it was negotiated at the beginning, and the scale has expanded by more than ten times. After leaving the urban area, there are tall factory buildings along the road, or factories that are still under construction. It is completely different from the scenery of farmland everywhere when I passed by for the first time. Fortunately, when he entered his own village, the scenery returned to the way he was familiar with. Obviously, the development of Fangyuan Group deliberately avoided the village where he was born. After entering the village this time, Fang Lang found that the population of the village seemed to have decreased a lot. Only some old people are still working in the farmland. It is estimated that the villagers will work in the factory during the daytime! After all, Fangyuan Group''s priority in recruiting is the villagers from the same village. My own house has not changed much, and it seems that my father has no plans to change this old house. "mom!" Fang Lang, who returned home, habitually yelled outside the door, which had nothing to do with his own status. No matter how good you are outside, when you go home, you are still your mothers son. This cry contains too many emotions. "Hey! Is Langer back?" Soon, a bunch of people came out of the house. I called my family before departure, saying that I would go home today, and repeatedly told everyone not to go to the airport to pick up the plane. It seems that the family members have been notified and are waiting at home. Because Zhuang Xintian was participating in training at the base, so when he went home this time, Fang Lang brought with him the guard platoon after he made a mistake in the United States and was driven back to China for retraining. Adjutant Qi Qingshan served as the commander. The long motorcade did not attract everyone''s attention, after all, it was originally the vehicle arranged by Fangyuan Group to the airport. But after the car door was opened, the guards who were armed with live ammunition and scattered around were on guard, which still surprised everyone. Fortunately, everyone knows that Fang Lang''s current identity is already extraordinary. Although he is a little nervous, he is not afraid. Seeing everyone''s reactions, Fang Lang hurriedly stepped forward to greet everyone one by one, and everyone was slowly getting used to it. But grandpa had related experience after all, so he seemed a lot more casual. Seeing that his grandfather was still in good spirits and in good spirits, he seemed to be in better health than when he met last time. Fang Lang was very happy, and he took the old man to ask his health for a while. The old man was obviously very happy to see that his eldest grandson was promising. While chatting with Fang Lang, he also looked at the guarding soldiers around him. After discovering Qi Qingshan who was following Fang Lang, he took the initiative to ask: "Is this the boss of the Qi family? I haven''t seen him in a few years, but he looks much more energetic." As an adjutant, Qi Qingshan and Fang Lang are in the same village, so they also know Fang Lang''s family members. Hearing the old man of the Fang family greeting him, he hurried forward and said: "Grandpa Fang, you still remember me! I haven''t seen you for many years, and your old man is getting more and more energetic. But I''m still a little apprehensive when I see your crutch. " After speaking, he still looked scared. It caused everyone to burst into laughter. It turned out that Qi Qingshan and Fang Lang were very naughty when they were studying at home. They were both **** who hadn''t rented a house for three days. Therefore, like Fang Lang, they enjoyed the education of Mr. Fang''s crutches. After hearing Qi Qingshan''s words, Mr. Fang also scolded with a smile: "You bastard, you''re doing well now. No wonder I heard your old man say a few days ago that he wants to find a wife for you! " This made Qi Qingshan a little embarrassed by what he said, but the look of expectation in his eyes still couldn''t escape Fang Lang''s eyes. Fang Lang smiled and said: "It''s all back home, you can go back to your own home to spend time with your parents and family, you don''t have to follow me. There is nothing wrong with me at home. Hurry up and go back and have a look, your old man fell in love with that girl for you. " They are Chinese living in Brazil, although they have accepted the local free love habits in Brazil. However, for those men and women who have reached the age of marriage and have no partners, they will still arrange blind dates in the village according to the tradition of their hometown. Because of the shy character of the Chinese, in fact, there are not as many people who love freely as those who rely on blind dates. This is also the main reason why this Chinese village can still maintain its Chinese blood in the third generation. Qi Qingshan was also very happy to hear that Fang Lang gave him a vacation. After all, this is also his hometown. When he is next to his home, it is impossible not to want to go home and have a look. After paying a military salute to Fang Lang, he greeted everyone. After turning around and explaining a few words to the guard platoon leader, he couldn''t wait to get his luggage in the car and go home. After watching Qi Qingshan leave, everyone walked into the house slowly. Aside from Fang Lang''s mother, grandfather and younger brother are at home today. Uncle, aunt and uncle''s two children are also there. My father is still in the company and has not come back. According to my mother, my father will not come home until after get off work in the afternoon. After all, Fang Xinshan is currently the chairman of Fangyuan Group, and he is still very busy at work. What surprised Fang Lang most was that Fang Lang''s uncle Fang Xinshui was also at home. "Uncle, aren''t you in charge of immigration and labor recruitment in your hometown? When are you coming back? " After this period of training, Fang Xinshui looked much more mature than before. But in front of his nephew, who is also the boss, he still behaved very casually. "It''s been a week since I came back, and the work in my hometown has been straightened out, and the relationship between various places has been opened up. Whether I''m there or not is actually not a big problem. Didnt Hongmen tell me that they were going to open a court in Brazil, so I hurried back? " As for Fang Xinshui knowing about this, Fang Lang is not surprised. , After all, it was the other party who was in charge of negotiating with Hongmen at the beginning, and he has always been in charge of the later liaison work. If Hongmen wants to enter Brazil, he will definitely check his tone and see his attitude at the first time. "Oh! I don''t know what your attitude is towards Hongmen opening a hall in Brazil?" Although Fang Lang has agreed in New York to allow Hongmen to open a hall in Brazil, according to Fang Lang''s plan, the family does not say that it is completely involved in the underworld, but must also have its own spokesperson in the underworld. And Fang Xinshui is the best candidate in Fang Lang''s mind to be in charge of this area. "If it was the original, I would have rejected it without even thinking about it. After all, Brazil is our territory, how can we let others intervene? However, this time I am in my hometown, so I have learned a lot. It turns out that many high-level officials in the government are from the Hongmen, so our labor recruitment work in our hometown can proceed so smoothly. It is inevitable that there will be many people from Hongmen in this immigration. Therefore, it is impossible for us to completely deny Hongmen people from entering Brazil. " Fang Xinshui''s experience in his hometown must have subverted many of his cognitions. That''s why he expressed such emotion for Hongmen''s ability. Of course Fang Lang knew that there were many people from the Hong family in the government. This is well known in later generations. Even Lao Jiang joined the Qing Gang in his early years. It is not surprising that there are people from the Hongmen among the officials below. "Then you said that your return is related to Hongmen''s establishment of a hall in Brazil, why? Did the other party invite you to watch the ceremony?" Unexpectedly, Fang Xinshui shook his head with embarrassment and said: If I just watched the ceremony, I wouldnt have to rush back to Brazil from my hometown. I''ve been hesitating about this matter at home for a few days, and I was thinking of going to you for an idea. No, it just so happens that you are back, so I dont need to look for you. " Seeing Fang Xinshui''s embarrassed expression, Fang Lang''s brows could not help but wrinkled. Fang Jinao only proposed to set up a Hongmen hall in Brazil when he was in New York! Didn''t ask too much, how could Fang Xinshui be so embarrassing? Fang Xinshui saw the whole family looking at him, and he didn''t know if it was appropriate to talk about it here. Fang Lang smiled and said: "They are all from our own family, there is nothing we can''t say. If you have any difficulties, tell them, and everyone can help you with ideas. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Fang Xinshui gritted his teeth and said: "This time in my hometown, I met Mr. Situ, the master of Hongmen Mountain. The old man chatted with me a lot, and also asked about our purpose of recruiting labor and our living conditions in Brazil. I also revealed some of our goals to him. Mr. Situ took great care of me, and we received his strong support for our labor recruitment work in my hometown, so I dared to let go of the labor recruitment work in my hometown. He told me that they were going to open a new Hong Men Tang in Brazil. And, I hope I can serve as the head of the Brazilian Hongmen. " "What? Let you be the head of the Hongmen in Brazil, have you joined the Hongmen?" Fang Lang didn''t expect that Fang Xinshui would break such an explosive news for himself. Fang Xinshui shook his head repeatedly and said: "No! How can I decide on such a big matter without discussing it with you?" Hearing Fang Xinshui''s words, Fang Lang stood up and paced back and forth in the living room. He has to consider the pros and cons of this matter, which is not a trivial matter. The benefits of joining the Hongmen must be obvious. Once you have this status, you can get in touch with the Hongmen forces in other countries. When you are active in these countries, you can get help from the local Hongmen. Don''t say how much this help will do. At least it''s better than blindfolding and diving in. Moreover, with this layer of identity, the speed of development of gang forces will definitely be very rapid. Because it is possible to directly select people from the Hongmen Brothers among the laborers to join the Hongmen Church in Brazil. In the future, when you encounter any problems in your development in Brazil, you can also ask the main hall for help. Of course, with the Fang family''s status in Brazil, it is better to ask Fang Lang for help than to ask Hongmen Main Hall for help. So, this one doesn''t make much sense. As for the disadvantage, it may be that there will be an extra main hall above, which will have a certain restraint effect on the Brazilian hall. I dont know if one day, the main hall will appoint a new hall master to take over the work of the Brazilian hall. However, this is unlikely, because according to Fang Lang''s understanding, the Hongmen and the Qinggang are different. Most of the youth gangs are composed of master-apprentice relationships, and the organization is tight. If you want to join the youth gang, you have to learn from a master. The seniority of the master in the gang has a great impact on your status in the gang. The Hongmen is much more relaxed than the Green Gang, and all members of the Hongmen are brothers. The ranks are not as strict as the Green Gang, and the freedom of each hall is still very high. Even if the head of the hall is to be changed, it must be elected from the mouth of the Brazilian hall. Another disadvantage is that it may be necessary to hand over part of the profits to the main hall every year. (end of this chapter) Chapter 250: Hong Yitang Chapter 250 Hong Yitang While Fang Lang was still weighing the pros and cons of Fang Xinshui joining Hongmen. The old man sighed and said: "Hey! Hongmen? Unexpectedly, he went around and came back again? If you really want to open a Hongmentang in Brazil, you don''t have to worry about it at all. Lang''er, your grandfather was actually a member of the Hong family back then. According to what he said, the reason why he joined the Kingdom of Heaven was because Commander Qin of the Kingdom of Heaven was a member of the Hongmen. He is also the kind of person who likes Qin Shuai. " After hearing the old man''s words, the whole family looked at him dumbfounded. At the beginning, when Fang Lang discussed Hongmen''s history and program with Fang Xinshui at home, the old man seemed to be listening to something new the whole time, and he never revealed his identity as the grandfather. Unexpectedly, today when it was mentioned that Uncle Fang Xinshui was going to join the Hongmen, a giant Buddha was actually blown up. The Qin Shuai mentioned by the old man should be Qin Rigang, one of the main generals of the Kingdom of Heaven. It''s just that Fang Lang didn''t expect that the Prime Minister of Heaven, one of the eight most righteous people in the kingdom of heaven, was also born in Hongmen. It seems that the people in the Hongmen were really flexible. In order to participate in the anti-Qing cause, they even joined this God-worshiping organization. "Grandpa, when we discussed Hongmen at home, I didn''t hear you say that Grandpa still has such an identity!" Fang Lang asked quickly. The old man saw the whole family looking at him, sighed and said: "Hi! At the beginning, your great-grandfather didn''t mention the Hongmen affairs to me. I didn''t hear about this organization until he was old and always liked to recall some past events. However, Grandpa Ni said that there are many branches in Hongmen in his hometown, and some people do certain things that are not on the table. It made him feel dull, so he rarely mentioned this identity again. As for why I didnt say when you discussed those Hongmen rules and code words. Thats because I dont understand either! I also heard something new. " Fang Lang and Fang Xinshui looked at each other, unexpectedly. But the old man''s meaning was also expressed very clearly. It seems that Fang Lang''s grandfather was really not a simple character at the beginning. The reason for the relatively low status may be that the time to join the kingdom of heaven is relatively late, and the age is relatively young! Speaking of Hongmen, in fact, the original intention of his establishment was not to fight against the Qing Dynasty and restore the Ming Dynasty. It can be seen from the fact that there are very few political words in Hongmens original "Thirty-six Oaths". After the Opium War, this situation gradually changed. In order to resist the Qing Dynasty and seek asylum, many intellectuals joined Hongmen one after another, which changed the personnel structure of Hongmen, which was dominated by farmers and small handicraftsmen. Under the influence of these intellectuals, Hongmen began to carry out various activities with the goal of anti-Qing. However, many Hongmen disciples are also using their identities to engage in some illegal activities. In the "piggy" trade in the late Qing Dynasty, Hongmen disciples personally abducted, sold, and transported Chinese laborers, making huge profits in this sinful transaction. In the southern provinces, Hongmen disciples monopolized the trade in alcohol and opium, and opened many casinos and brothels. The people who joined the Hongmen came from three religions and nine streams, and the origin of the members was mixed. These Hongmen disciples engaged in illegal business made the Hongmen''s reputation of loyalty plummet. So when Mr. Fang said that he should not be on the stage, he should be referring to these people and things. "However, the grandfather has passed away for so long, and we have not joined the Hongmen, so how could we establish the Hongmen Tangkou without going through the Hongmen? The Hongmen Tangkou established in this way, the Hongmen Tangkou in other parts of the world will not recognize it! " The identity of the Hongmen is not passed down from generation to generation. It doesnt mean that the grandfather is a member of the Hongmen, and they will be members of the Hongmen. So, Fang Lang felt that his grandfather''s thinking was a little too simple. Fang Xinshui also understood this, so he shook his head and said: "Dad! It''s not that simple, if we want to set up Hongmentang. First of all, we must be from Hongmen. You have never opened a incense hall, and your name is not on the register. Who will recognize your identity? " After hearing what the two said, the old man didn''t say much, but got up and went to the shrine, and opened a drawer to open it. Fang Lang didn''t understand what the old man was going to do, so he hurried over to help him. Seeing that the old man pulled out an object wrapped in red silk from the drawer, he handed it over. Fang Lang quickly took it. Just listen to the old man say: "At the beginning, your grandfather said that this was brought out by him, and it was called Hong Yitang''s token. Take a look, is it useful? " Fang Lang and Fang Xinshui looked at each other. Unexpectedly, there was such a thing in the shrine at home. Why didn''t they notice it before? Fang Lang handed it to Fang Xinshui to indicate that he would open it, and he stepped forward to help his grandfather''s hand and let him sit down on the recliner. After Fang Xinshui took it solemnly, he motioned to his nephew Fang Tao, who had been watching the excitement, to clean up everything on the table. Then, put the package up and open it, and gently untie the outermost red cloth bag. A piece of faded yellow silk leaked out. After it was opened, everyone surrounded it, Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be a yellow pennant flag, with the three characters "Hongyitang" embroidered with red thread on the flag, and red borders on the bottom and hypotenuse of the flag. Fang Lang understood that this should be the name of the hall where the grandfather was. Inside the flag was another piece of red silk with writing on it. As Fang Xinshui slowly opened it, before Fang Lang could see the content of the words written on the red silk, he saw that it was wrapped in red silk. It turned out to be a booklet. The cover of the booklet is very beautifully made, with a thickness of more than three millimeters. It looks like it is wrapped in yellow silk cloth, but because it took too long. The yellow cover has turned white, and there is still a large black stain in the upper left corner. Fang Lang took a closer look and found that the stain should be the color of the blood that has penetrated into it, precipitated and oxidized over time. From top to bottom on the right side, several traditional Chinese characters are written very clearly "Hongyitang Roster". Fang Xinshui''s eyes widened after seeing this booklet, and he looked at Fang Lang in disbelief. Fang Lang''s gaze also met Shang Xinshui''s gaze, and the eyes of the two gradually changed from shock to surprise. The significance of this roster is extraordinary. With this roster and Hong Yitang''s banner, Fang Xinshui can directly act in the name of Hong Yitang. You can even directly invite Hongmen from all over the world to witness that Hongmen Hongyitang has been reborn in Brazil. The history of this hall is obviously earlier than that of Hongmen Zhigongtang. In this way, even if the chief rudder of Hongmen is now Zhigongtang, the subordination relationship between the two halls will become less obvious. It is obviously very beneficial to the Fang family. As Fang Xinshui picked up the roster to check, Fang Lang noticed the red silk wrapping the roster, which should not look simple. On this somewhat whitish red silk, in the middle of it was written in black pen the four big characters "Bing Zheng Zheng Eliminates Traitors". Above the big characters is a slightly smaller font that reads "Red Peony Contains Stamens", and below it is "White Peony Blooms". On the right side is written "Two Dragons Fighting for the Pearl" and on the left side is written "Shuangfeng Chaoyang". The font is not good-looking, and the level of calligraphy cannot be seen at all. The people who wrote these characters should not have a high level of education. Even the character in Erlong Zhengzhu looks more like a typo. However, when Fang Lang saw the red silk, he felt that this thing should not be simple. As for the specific effect, you may have to ask the people in Hongmen to know. Fang Xinshui flipped through the roster and said: "Lang''er, do you think these things are useful?" Fang Lang looked at the obviously smiling Fang Xinshuidao: "Whether it''s useful or not, don''t you know if you ask? Didnt Mr. Situ invite you to join Hongmen? Then you just put these things out and see what he says. " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Fang Xinshui directly closed the roster, looked at Fang Lang and said: "You mean, agree with me to join Hongmen and open Hongmen halls in Brazil?" "No, it''s not joining Hongmen, it''s reorganizing Hongyitang. Invite Mr. Situ to come to Brazil to preside over the ceremony, so that Hong Yitang can return to the embrace of Hongmen all over the world. " Fang Lang said with a smile on his face. With this coat, in Brazil, the Fang family can completely control this Hongmen force and use it for themselves. Even with the help of this banner, they can directly gather the Hongmen disciples who came from their hometown. Rapid development and growth, avoiding the penetration of Hongmen''s main helm into Brazil. "Yes, Hong Yitang will be reorganized. From today onwards, our gang will be called Hong Yitang. Haha." After Fang Xinshui finished speaking, he laughed triumphantly. But before he finished laughing, he was hit with a cane by the old man. "You get carried away, you haven''t started doing anything yet, how do you know that others won''t trip you up. I''m a lot older, and I haven''t learned to be prudent yet. " Fang Xinshui was so frightened that he quickly stopped talking, and everyone laughed. Yang Xiuer saw the opportunity and quickly interjected: "Lang''er! How long can you stay here this time? You''re not a big boss, and you''re promising now. I was thinking, should I arrange a blind date for you too! " Fang Lang never expected that his mother would be waiting for him here. When he heard that Qi Qingshan had been arranged for a blind date, he was worried whether he would be arranged too. Unexpectedly, he opened his mouth. waved his hands repeatedly and said: "Mom, no, no, I already have a girlfriend and I am studying medicine in the United States. When she is on summer vacation, I will bring it back for you to see. " As soon as the words came out, the family members were all surprised, and they asked about Fang Lang''s situation. So much so that Fang Lang didn''t know whose question to answer. It was the old man''s cane that hit the ground heavily that made everyone quiet for a while. The old man coughed lightly twice and said: "Good grandson! Tell grandpa, whose daughter is it! There seems to be no girl in the village. She went to the United States to study medicine? " Hearing his grandfather talking about the girls in the village, Fang Lang felt a little big. Could he only find a wife in the village? "Grandpa, my girlfriend is not Brazilian, but Italian, we met in Italy. Her father was my partner in the Italian business. " "What? Italian? No, you are the eldest grandson of the house, how can you marry a white woman and go home! Hasnt the incense of our Fang family changed? No, I disagree. " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Mr. Fang stood up from the recliner in a jerk. The mother beside her also hastily said: "Yes! Lang''er, when you marry a white woman, it will be a problem for me to communicate with her. How can this be done?" My uncle and uncle, on the other hand, looked indifferent. It was the aunt who stood beside her with a slightly embarrassed expression. After all, he was the white woman that grandpa called, a Portuguese white woman. Maybe I noticed my aunt''s embarrassment. Fang Lang''s mother''s face also became a little unnatural. "Mom, don''t worry! Your daughter-in-law is learning Chinese now, and there will be absolutely no problem communicating with you. Grandpa, don''t be so rigid, what age is it now, we Brazilian Chinese women are rare. If I am still looking for a girlfriend in the village, I will become a close relative and marry. " Who knows that the old man is not forgiving and said: "What kind of close relatives get married, the cousins ??around grandpa can get married, why not the Chinese girls in the village. I dont care, you are the eldest grandson of the house, you must marry a Chinese, and my grandson must also be a yellow-skinned Chinese. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 251: Recent developments in the media Chapter 251 Recent Development of Media Fang Lang was really helpless about the old man''s traditional thinking. Actually, it''s not that Fang Lang doesn''t want to find a Chinese girl to marry and have children, but the original body didn''t leave him any resources in this regard! In Yuanshen''s impression, the Chinese girls in the same village did not catch his eye at all. Look at Lilith''s figure that resembles Monica Bellucci, which becomes more and more interesting as she grows older. How could Fang Lang, who is a visual animal, be willing to give up. Besides, Lilith''s personality is not at all like the European and American women he knows, but a service-oriented personality close to Asians. What more bicycles are needed. More importantly, there is one who can give both daughters to his mother-in-law. Can''t blame the enemy for being too cunning, it''s because she gave too much. And since I have accepted Lilith as my girlfriend, it is impossible to give up a woman who has entrusted my whole body and mind to myself because of the opposition of my family. So, on this matter, it is impossible for Fang Lang to compromise with the old man. "Grandpa, please believe me, when you see Lilith, you will definitely like this granddaughter-in-law! If I were single now, I would never disobey your opinion. However, Lilith and I have confirmed the relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend. Do you want your grandson to become a Chen Shimei who always abandons him? " Even if the old man wanted his grandson to find a Chinese wife again, he had to let go of his insistence temporarily when he heard about Chen Shimei''s crime. Seeing the old man and mother fell silent for a moment. Fang Lang was afraid of continuing this topic, so he quickly changed the subject, and said to his younger brother: "Tao! How is the development of Brazil Times doing well now!" Fang Tao saw each of them winking at him while asking questions to himself, but he didn''t understand what the other person meant. smiled and said: "Brother, I have to say that your idea of ??running a newspaper is very successful, and now our Brazil Times has firmly ranked first in Brazil''s paper media. Leaving the original mainstream newspapers such as the Brazilian Daily, Commercial Daily, Globe, and Sao Paulo Pages far behind. Now we are launching acquisitions of Globe and Folha de S?o Paulo. Once the acquisition is completed, we will occupy half of the Brazilian paper media. The newly established "News Weekly" and "Half Moon Talk" magazines have also achieved good results. " Talking about Fang Tao''s favorite media industry, Fang Tao is a little eloquent. He is no longer the innocent boy who only has theoretical knowledge and insists on the three major characteristics of news. The topic of discussion was no longer the specific content of the newspaper, but began to consider the status and market share of the newspaper in Brazil from the perspective of a media tycoon. It shows that Fang Tao has also matured, and maybe the Fang family will produce a media tycoon in the future. Fang Lang nodded in satisfaction. Even if we occupy half of Brazil, we must not relax. If a company does not make progress, it means going backwards. Therefore, we must make the company aggressive. Brazil is vast in land and sparsely populated, and the market is still too small. We need to let our media group go abroad, to the world, to the stars and the sea. Go and give our voice to the world. " Fang Tao was very satisfied, even somewhat proud, that the Brazil Times was able to achieve such a huge achievement in such a short period of time. Although he was not at the helm and made Brazil Times what it is today, Fang Tao feels honored to be a part of it. But what my brother said today, the head that was a little dizzy from the joy of victory began to cool down quickly. And seriously think about what my brother said, "Go abroad, go to the world, go to the stars and the sea, and send our voice to the whole world." At this moment, he felt that he was very small in front of his brother''s grand ambitions. When I was complacent about my achievements, my brother had already started planning a future that I didn''t even dare to think about. "Brother, can we really?" In his heart, he still felt that his brother''s goal was too far away, even out of reach. "If you don''t try, how will you know it''s impossible? Brazil Times is just a starting point. In the future, Fangyuan Media Company will go all over the world to acquire and open newspapers. Send reporters all over the world, collect news materials from all over the world, and spread them to the world. When we founded the Brazil Times, did you dare to believe that the Brazil Times would achieve what it is today? Don''t be afraid to dream, dare to think and do. Dreams are realized step by step and down-to-earth. " After pouring down a meal of chicken soup, Fang Tao felt as if he had seen the future of Fangyuan Media. The whole person was a little passionate, and he couldn''t restrain the surging emotions in his heart. "I see, brother! I will not let you down. " Fang Lang looked at his younger brother who was agitated by his own few words, and let out a knowing smile. Young people are so foolish! "Have you learned about Fangyuan Media, the development progress of the TV station project?" "Of course, bro. Although I haven''t really seen what the TV show is like. But I have an intuition that television may soon replace traditional paper media and become a new media front. During this period of time, I often studied with Vice President Anderson who came to the United States. I feel that his idea of ??setting up a news station is simply a genius idea. The way people get the latest consultation is still from the words on the paper media. However, what a great change it will be to see real pictures, images and sounds on TV. Even illiterate farmers can sit at home and watch current events and hot news happening around the world. The audience will be countless times that of newspapers. Now Fangyuan Medias TV station can start trial broadcasting in one month. The main problem now is the popularization of TV sets. The TV factory of our Fangyuan Group has begun to produce black and white TVs of about 10 inches, but the current output is not high. However, the manufacturing cost of the TV is relatively high, and the price will definitely not be very cheap. Everyone still doesn''t know what this guy can be used for. Therefore, it may be very difficult to promote in the early stage. " It seems that my younger brother who studies journalism is indeed very sensitive to the media industry, and his thinking is not pedantic, and he accepts new things very quickly. Fang Lang felt that it was remarkable that he could not restrict himself to traditional paper media. This made Fang Lang very gratified. This era is an era of rapid changes, with rapid development of science and technology. If you are old-fashioned in thinking and unable to accept new things, you will soon be eliminated by society. "You were able to see the potential of television, which is very good. I agree with you that TV stations will definitely become another major media platform different from traditional paper media in the future. We must seize the opportunity, actively participate in it, and quickly complete our technology accumulation. And before others react, make it bigger and stronger. Dont worry about the difficulty in TV promotion you mentioned. The current TV has just started, and the difficulties in the early stage are predictable. After the construction of our TV station is completed and TV programs can be played normally, we can place the TV in some prominent positions to attract people''s attention. After everyone understands the role of the TV, people will naturally pay for it. For a family, a TV is a relatively luxurious home appliance, and it is inevitable that it will be difficult to promote it in the early stage. Cultivating customers'' consumption habits requires a process. We are not in a hurry, step by step, steadily, and slowly you will see the results. " Fang Tao obviously also understands that what Fang Lang said is the truth, the promotion of radio and television is not achieved overnight, and the number of people in Brazil who can afford a TV is still a minority. The current situation is that there are not many signal base stations for radio and television stations. The plan is to cover the TV signals to the capital cities of various states in Brazil, as well as cities such as Rio and Sao Paulo, which are developed along the coast, before the TV stations start trial broadcasting. This investment in the construction of signal base stations is not a small investment, if Fang Lang hadn''t attached great importance to the development of media companies and provided enough funds. It is almost impossible to complete such a task relying on Brazil Times'' own hematopoietic ability. "Brother, the investment in building this TV station is too great. We bought an office building in Rio de Janeiro and purchased a lot of photography equipment. Recruit various professionals and build a TV station team. TV signal base stations have to be set up in every state, and the cables alone are enough to circle the earth twice. When the TV station officially starts the trial broadcast, I estimate that our investment in the TV station will exceed tens of millions of dollars. Vice President Anderson told me that the TV program was broadcast for free, so how should we recover the cost? " Fang Lang smiled, knowing that Anderson must have probed Fang Tao''s tone, and wanted to hear from Fang Tao about Fang Lang''s method of making money for the TV station. After thinking about it, Fang Lang doesn''t mind telling Fang Tao how the TV station makes money. I just feel that the timing of advertising at this time is not mature enough. TVs have not yet entered people''s homes, and advertising is free to people. It is estimated that no one is willing to pay to shoot commercials. So, regarding Fang Tao''s doubts, Fang Lang smiled and said: "The time for the TV station to make a profit has not yet come, and the time to expand customers in the early stage must be the period when we invest heavily. We want to set up branches in every state in the country to be responsible for laying TV signal lines for customers who apply for TV or telephone. We still have to charge the customer for the cost of laying the line. But my idea is that we should not charge too much for this fee, and we should focus on promoting TV. After the number of TV sets reaches a certain number, we can start advertising for various companies to collect advertising fees. Used to fill the input of the TV station. When the TV advertising market matures, we can auction the advertising time of each time period according to the TV ratings of each time period. The higher the ratings, the larger the audience for the advertisement, and the higher the corresponding advertising cost. Is it as clear as our newspaper advertisement? " Fang Tao slapped his head and suddenly realized: "Oh! My pig brain, such a simple method, why didn''t I think of it? Newspapers have text advertisements, and TV stations can play audio-visual advertisements! The effect will be more pronounced than that of newspapers. At that time, powerful merchants will definitely fight for a good time advertising space. " Fang Lang looked at Fang Tao''s expression, smiled and did not speak. He wants to enter the media industry not to make money. If he wants to make money, there are many more industries that make money than media. Why should he invest so much in assets. The real role of the media is the right to speak and cultural output. This is why Fang Lang invested huge sums of money. But now is not the time to talk to your family. When the time is right, he also wants to set up his own film company in Brazil and Hollywood to carry out cultural export subtly. At the very least, movies and TV shows that vilify the image of Chinese people should not appear. (end of this chapter) Chapter 252: Member of Parliament Chapter 252 Councilor The conversation between Fang Lang and Fang Tao really diverted the attention of the family members, and Fang Lang was not worried about the impact of Fang Tao telling Anderson about the profit method of the TV station. After all, the current TV station has almost been set up. Anderson has put a lot of effort and energy into the Brazilian TV station, and he will not leave even if you drive him away at this time. As for other people who want to enter this industry, Fang Lang can''t stop it. On the contrary, he hopes that more people can enter the industry. Only when there are more programs and TV channels, people''s enthusiasm for buying TVs will rise. TV stations can truly develop and prosper. In addition to his own family members, there is also his uncle Yang Zong at home today. He has been busy communicating with his uncle and brother, and Fang Lang has not been able to speak a few words with his uncle''s family. "Brother Gan, how is your work in the city government of Sao Paulo?" Uncle Yang Zong married earlier than his mother. He and her Portuguese wife were classmates, and they married through free love. And Yang Gan is their eldest son, who is now working in the Sao Paulo City Government and is two years older than Fang Lang, so Fang Lang always calls him Brother Gan. As for the youngest son, Yang Kun, he is two years younger than Fang Lang. According to Fang Lang''s understanding, he seems to be studying at a teacher''s college in Sao Paulo. It is precisely because both of them have their own direction and goals. So, they were unwilling to take over the small unprofitable cigarette factory owned by my uncle, which forced my uncle to sell it, and finally made Fang Lang cheaper. It has grown and grown under Fang Lang''s hands, and has become the largest tobacco company in Brazil, with amazing monthly profits. Fang Lang didn''t know if his uncle''s family had other thoughts in their hearts. "Brother, I''m here to thank you specially, thanks to your blessing. I have now become the secretary of Mayor Scalia. Mr. Mayor took good care of me after he knew about our relationship. And introduced me to join the National League, and planned to let me run for the Sao Paulo City Council in the next parliamentary election. " In Fang Lang''s impression, Yang Gan was just an ordinary clerk in the Sao Paulo City Government. Unexpectedly, in such a short period of time, Mayor Scalia was directly promoted to the mayor''s secretary, and joined the National League, one of the three major parties in Brazil. The National Leagues influence in Brazilian politics is not as powerful as the old parties like the Social Democratic Party, But in recent years, the speed of development is very rapid. The throne of mayor of Brazil''s second largest city can be seen in the hands of Scalia, a member of the National League. What surprised Fang Lang even more was that in this election, Scalia was able to continue to be re-elected as the mayor of Sao Paulo, which shows that the National League is still very strong in Sao Paulo. As for the other party''s promotion of Yang Gan, it was definitely not because of Yang Gan''s outstanding work ability. Yang Gan obviously understood this too, so he directly opened his mouth to express his gratitude to himself. From the facial features, Yang Qian inherited his father Yang Zong''s genes, but the wavy hair and skin color obviously carried his mother''s inheritance. However, Yang Gan is very Chinese in terms of name and living habits. Because of his living environment since he was a child, he is very sympathetic to Chinese culture. The most amazing thing is that this guy can write good calligraphy. This skill was envied by Fang Lang when he was a child for a long time. Of course, Fang Lang now also envies people who can write good calligraphy. "Brother Gan, why are you thanking me! Didn''t you get all of this by yourself? What does ?? have to do with me. " "Hi! If I were really capable, I wouldn''t stay in the position of a clerk for three years without moving. Since you developed an industrial park in S?o Paulo and our relationship was known to people in the city government, I started to become a fragrant momo. The staff of the entire city government seemed to have become very polite overnight. Soon I was also promoted to a small supervisor. When the Fangyuan Group established a shipyard in Brazil, I was directly recruited as a party member by the National League. As the Fangyuan Group invests more and more in Sao Paulo, my status is getting higher and higher. If none of this makes me understand how I got to where I am, I''d be stupid. " Yang Gan''s frankness is unexpected. Yang Gan in my impression still had a lot of self-esteem in front of Fang Lang. Not to mention looking down on this naughty cousin since he was a child, at least he held it up when he spoke. Now that he looks free and easy, he has indeed matured a lot. For Fang Lang, this is indeed an unexpected gain. According to Fang Lang''s plan, it is inevitable for future Chinese to enter the political arena and join a political party. Now that my cousin has joined the National League, as long as I can provide him with some help, he will be able to quickly gain a foothold in the National League. Now Yang Gan is in the National League, he is naturally the representative of Fangyuan Group''s interests, it''s up to him whether he wants to or not. Because of his identity and background, everyone will automatically put him in the ranks of Dao. Fang Lang smiled and said: "That''s fine, within the government, our Fangyuan Group really needs a spokesperson for our own interests. Since everyone knows your identity, is there anyone who offered you an olive branch? " Fang Lang''s affirmation made Yang Qian very happy. With Fang Lang''s acknowledgment, Yang Gan can now and aboveboard show his identity as an agent of Fangyuan Group''s interests. "Of course, before I officially became a member of the Sao Paulo City Council, many members of the National League have already moved closer to me. I hope to get the support of the Fangyuan Group. If you agree, I can organize a small party after I go back to formally gather everyone together. In the future we will be able to make our voice heard in Parliament. " Fang Lang understood Yang Qian''s plan as soon as he heard it, and Fang Lang didn''t dislike this. On the contrary, I feel that politicians just want to take advantage of this situation. I believe that after the completion of this party, Yang Gan''s position in the National League will be more stable, and he will soon have his own voice. This is what Fang Lang is happy to see. "No problem, I have no problem, if you need my dad to come forward. You also know that I am a soldier and cannot go to the party within your party, so I will not go to join in the fun. In the future, I will ask all the subsidiaries of Fangyuan Group to actively participate in some political activities. At least let each subsidiary have a member of the local council who speaks for itself. If you can unite everyone, then I think the day when you become a new political star in Sao Paulo is not far away. " Fang Lang''s words made Yang Qian and his uncle''s family very excited. If this is the case, Yang Qian''s future will be limitless. At least, in Sao Paulo, he will become a pivotal figure, and it is only a matter of time before he even becomes the speaker of the Sao Paulo City Council. "Thank you! Brother, don''t worry, I won''t let you down." Regarding the relationship between Yang Qian and himself, it goes without saying too much. Everyone understands that each other is an integral whole that cannot be divided. Talk too much, but it will appear redundant. Fang Lang patted Yang Gan''s arm with a smile, and was about to end the topic between the two, but Yang Gan said a little awkwardly: "Brother, I have two things to tell you this time." "Oh! What, you say?" "Mr. Mayor, let me ask you when you have time. He hopes to visit you." Fang Lang was not surprised by this situation at all. After all, Yang Gan was able to become Mayor Scalia''s secretary because of his relationship with him. Fangyuan Group now has a lot of projects in Sao Paulo, such as shipyards, steel factories, artillery factories, Porsche car factories, and many auto parts supporting factories, all of which are built in Sao Paulo. In addition, the main purpose of Fang Lang''s return to Sao Paulo this time is the aircraft modification factory that will open soon. After Polman''s inspections, he finally chose to settle in Sao Paulo. Even if Mayor Scalia doesn''t look for Fang Lang, Fang Lang is going to make an appointment with the mayor. "Tomorrow! Go to Sao Paulo to find a better restaurant. I will treat him to dinner at noon tomorrow." Hearing that Fang Lang agreed to meet with the mayor without hesitation, Yang Gan was very happy, which shows that he still has a lot of status in Fang Lang''s mind. "One more thing is, I have a senior, he also wants to visit you, I wonder if you can give him a chance?" Hearing Yang Gan''s second thing, Fang Lang was a little dazed. What do you mean, a senior, why do you want to see yourself? Seeing Fang Lang looking at himself with doubts, Yang Gan quickly explained: "That''s right, my senior also works in the municipal government, but he is a member of the Social Democratic Party. At first he wanted to invite me to join the Social Democratic Party. At that time, I was just a small clerk who had just started working in the government, so I was not very clear about these political matters. In addition, he was only a grassroots party member, and his recommendation was not approved. After I was pulled into the National League by the mayor, he was very dissatisfied with the slow response of the Social Democratic Party. I want to use my own efforts to change the passive situation of the Social Democratic Party in Sao Paulo. After knowing our relationship, he told me many times that he hoped that I could introduce him to you. so." Hearing that the other party was a member of the Social Democratic Party, Fang Lang laughed. In fact, since Fang Lang took control of the Nice company, Fang Lang has already had a very huge influence in the Social Democratic Party, Brazil''s largest party. Because the main members of the Social Democratic Party are composed of farmers and ranchers, or spokespersons representing the interests of farmers and ranchers. The original Nice company had a huge say in the Social Democratic Party. Now that the rights of the Nice company have been peacefully transferred to Fang Lang, it means that Fang Lang now automatically has the right to speak in the Social Democratic Party. But in Fang Lang''s view, this is not enough, although he already has a very huge influence on the Social Democratic Party. But in fact, he has no own people in the Social Democratic Party. What Fang Lang needs to do now is to install real people among these parties. I didn''t expect that the Social Democratic Party, as the largest party, would be so slow and missed the opportunity to recruit Yang Gan. Now hearing Yang Qian''s introduction to his senior, Fang Lang understood that this is a very ambitious guy who is unwilling to be lonely. As an ordinary member of the Social Democratic Party, I can think of knowing myself, the big boss behind Nice Company, through the relationship of Yang Gan. I have to say that this is a bold guy, and Fang Lang also became a little interested in him. I really want to meet him, but my schedule is very tight. After dealing with Sao Paulo, I will go to the United States to receive the aircraft carrier. Really couldn''t give him too much time. After thinking about it, Fang Lang said: "I might not have time to see him this time, so be it! You tell me what his name is, and I will inform the Nice company, let the branch manager in Sao Paulo chat with him, and support his development. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 253: education system Chapter 253 Education System In Fang Lang''s heart, he actually wanted to meet Yang Gan''s senior. However, his current status does not allow him to have too much private time for himself. Even if they meet, they can only just nod and shake hands, and they will rush to the end. Yang Gan is not dissatisfied with this result, after all, his relationship with Fang Lang is obviously closer than that of his senior. His name is Benin David, he is a Portuguese-born white man, and his father is also a veteran member of the Social Democratic Party, but he has been just an ordinary community member all his life, responsible for collecting information in the local community and submitting some grassroots proposals. Under the influence of his father, he was interested in politics since he was a child. He joined the Social Democratic Party during school and actively participated in the activities of the Social Democratic Party in the area where the school was located at that time. After graduation, he stayed in downtown St. Paul and became a government clerk. Although he is just a small clerk, he is very active both in school and at work, and he is very prestigious among young people. I was also influenced by him, so I became interested in politics. " In Yang Gan''s description, Fang Lang could feel that this young man named Benin David was very good. Maybe one day this young man will become a rising star in Brazilian politics. Maybe if I ask Nice Company to give the other party a hand now, it will bring me rich rewards. "I see, this time let the people from Nice Company contact him first! If he can seize this opportunity, he will have a seat on the St. Paul City Council. Next time I''m back in S?o Paulo, I''ll meet him in person. " Received Fang Lang''s personal promise, and Yang Gan didn''t continue to pester him. Today, his harvest has been huge. Fang Lang looked at Yang Kun who had been following Yang Qian again. Yang Kun is two years younger than Fang Lang. Unlike his elder brother Yang Gan who finished college, his younger brother is not as good as his elder brother in terms of academic performance, and only passed a teacher training college. Brazil''s education system is not much different from that in China. It is mainly divided into primary education, intermediate education, and advanced education. Among them, primary education is equivalent to domestic primary and junior high schools; Intermediate education includes high school, vocational college, and teacher training college. The schooling period is 3 years, which is similar to that in China; Higher education is a university. Of course, this is just Brazils plan. In fact, the current level of education of Brazilians is very low, and many people cannot even complete their initial education. Thanks to the universal value of the Chinese that "everything is inferior but education is high", Chinese families cherish the opportunity for their children to receive education. So, both Fang Lang and the Yang brothers have completed secondary education in Brazil. As for higher education, it does require learning talent. And the chances of completing higher education in Brazil during this period were very slim. In 1789, Brazilian literati had asked to establish a university in the model of the University of Coimbra in Portugal, but because of Portugal''s opposition, the plan to establish a university in the colony eventually came to naught. It was not until 1920 that Brazil established the first university in the country - the Federal University of Rio de Janeiro; then the University of Sao Paulo was founded in Sao Paulo in 1934; These are the only two universities in Brazil so far. Yang Gan is a graduate of the University of Sao Paulo, while his younger brother Yang Kun is studying in a teacher training college. Education is similar to that of Fang Lang, both of which are equivalent to high school education. Dont look down on high school education. In Brazil in this era, high school education already belongs to cultural people. "Brother Kun, how are you studying now! Didn''t you skip class like your brother and I did?" Yang Kun glanced at the parents beside him embarrassedly, shook his head shyly and said: "Brother, I have already graduated, and now I am working as a teacher in an elementary school in St. Paul Town." "Hey! Have you already worked? How time flies! How is school life? Are you used to it? Has anyone bullied you, you told me that I would beat him up for you. " Yang Kun is two grades lower than Fang Lang. When he was studying, he was often bullied by his classmates because he was thin and small. Fang Lang, who was two grades older than him, helped Yang Kun teach his classmates who bullied him twice. So, when Fang Lang saw Yang Kun again, he made a joke. This reminded the adult Yang Kun of the embarrassing things in his childhood, and felt a little embarrassed. Fang Lang noticed his cousin''s expression, smiled and changed the subject: "What are you teaching in school now! Our current immigration company is short of teachers, have you considered the immigration company''s help?" "Ah! I teach math in elementary school, can I help?" Yang Kun looked at Fang Lang expectantly. Obviously, he was also willing to participate in the Chinese immigration work of Fangyuan Group. "Of course, as long as you are willing to contribute, I welcome it. As far as I know, we have resettled many immigrants in Sao Paulo. If you want, you can go to night school as a part-time teacher to teach Portuguese and mathematics after get off work! " Seeing Yang Kun''s slightly disappointed face, Fang Lang said doubtfully: "What''s the matter, don''t you want to?" Its not that I dont want to, but mainly because I want to be a full-time immigrant teacher, or to teach immigrant children elementary school knowledge. I still look at us Chinese more kindly. " Yang Kun''s words stunned Fang Lang, especially when he mentioned us Chinese. Because Yang Kun''s appearance is different from his elder brother Yang Gan, Yang Gan at least looks like his uncle Yang Zong in facial features. Yang Kun, on the other hand, except for his black hair, can''t see the appearance of a Chinese at all, with white skin, blue eyes, and three-dimensional facial features. If he doesn''t speak, no one can connect him with the Chinese. So when he said that sentence, it was more friendly to look at the Chinese, Fang Lang was in a daze for a while. Fang Lang didn''t expect his cousin to agree with his Chinese identity so much. He patted Yang Kun on the shoulder happily and said: "Okay, I like this sentence. How about this! Many of our immigrants and laborers come with their families, and some children originally came with them. Two days ago, I was still thinking about starting primary education in our Chinese residential areas to improve the education level of Chinese youths. It happens that you are my family, so I will leave this matter to you! First set up an immigrant primary school in our Sao Paulo. Considering that there are not many teachers who can speak Portuguese and Chinese at the same time, I have sent an immigration company to Macau to recruit teachers who can speak Portuguese and Chinese. In the future, we will build our own primary and secondary education system in every immigration point, lets start with you! " "Brother, do you mean to let me preside over the construction of a primary school for our Chinese?" Yang Kun looked very happy. But Fang Lang looked at him, and when he heard him say that we are Chinese, he always felt a sense of detachment. But he still suppressed it, after all, if he said it, it might hurt Yang Kun''s heart. "That''s right, do you have the confidence to complete this task?" Yang Kun''s face was flushed, and he said excitedly: "Brother, leave it to me, don''t worry! Guaranteed to complete the task. Go back and resign tomorrow. " After hearing what Yang Kun said, my aunt was a little worried and said: "Hey! You kid, don''t be so impulsive." Yang Zong smiled all over his face, and seemed a little relieved. Although his child''s appearance did not follow him, his heart was still with him. Raised his hand to stop his aunt and said: "This is working for the future of all Chinese, and it is more meaningful than working in the primary school in the town. We must support it." Seeing her man expressed support, and my aunt couldn''t say much. The old man stood up and answered: "Langer''s idea is good. Assuming our own primary and secondary education system in the immigration point, it is necessary to improve the cultural level of our Chinese. Old man, I am all for it. However, I also want to make two requests. " Fang Lang didn''t expect that the old man would take the initiative to speak at this time, so he quickly turned around and came to the old man''s side, supported the old man''s arm and said: "If you have any requirements, please tell me!" The old man is a straightforward person, facing his family, he is not polite, and said directly: First of all, the education of Chinese immigrants must not abandon the education of Chinese culture, and cannot make future Chinese, like some Chinese, unable to write Chinese characters or speak Chinese. The Chinese educated in this way cannot be regarded as Chinese at all. " For the old man''s request, Fang Lang raised his hands, and this was originally his plan. Seeing the old man looking at him with scorching eyes, Fang Lang nodded quickly and said: "No problem, Grandpa, it was in line with my plan." Hearing Fang Lang''s affirmative answer, the old man nodded in satisfaction. "Second point, all Chinese must learn our own history, and have a clear understanding of where we Brazilian Chinese come from. In the future, we must not forget our roots, we must know where our roots are!" Fang Lang has also considered this point for a long time. To cultivate the national consciousness of overseas Chinese, it is necessary for all overseas Chinese to understand the history of Chinese civilization for five thousand years. Only by understanding what an excellent nation the Chinese are and what a brilliant civilization they have created, can they cultivate a sense of national pride and honor for the Chinese. Only in the heart can I identify with my Chinese identity and be proud of it. Instead of being completely reduced to a banana man with a yellow skin and a white heart. As the old saying goes, an old family is like a treasure. The ancients never deceived me. Although Fang Lang had already considered these things, it did not prevent Fang Lang from admiring the old man''s foresight. After all, Fang Lang has such a vision and idea through the fog of history with the perspective of a later generation. "Grandpa, don''t worry! I have already asked the immigration company to search for these historical books in my hometown. At that time, I will hire a few masters in history to come to Brazil and write a book about the five thousand years of Chinese civilization for us." history textbooks. Let all Chinese and even Brazilians understand the splendid historical civilization that we Chinese have. " When the old man heard his grandson say that he had already been doing this work, a gratified smile appeared on his face. It seems that my grandson and I have thought of being together, and I feel very relieved. "Good, good, good!" Even after saying three good words, he didn''t forget to slap Fang Fanglang''s arms vigorously a few times. "Third, to cultivate the martial spirit of our Chinese children, I know there is capoeira in Brazil and Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, don''t we Chinese have it? Our Chinese martial arts also have a long history, no worse than the fighting skills of these foreigners. Although I only know a few tricks, I am sure that they will not be able to find North. " Fang Lang didn''t expect that the third request of the old man turned out to be this. Originally, according to Fang Lang''s plan, he planned to set up physical education classes in schools to improve the physical fitness of the Chinese. Through military training to cultivate everyone''s sense of teamwork and discipline, I didn''t expect the old man to be more radical than himself. (end of this chapter) Chapter 254: the other side of the old man Chapter 254 Another side of the old man Fang Lang never thought that his father would have such a side, and even knew Capoeira and Gracie Jiu-Jitsu. The so-called capoeira, Hong Kong called the Brazilian war dance, is a unique dance between art and martial arts developed by African immigrants in Brazil in the 16th century. Its essence is actually a martial art for combat. Because those who practiced this martial art often participated in criminal or anti-government activities were banned by the government in 1892, practicing Capoeira became an underground activity. It was not until 1937 that President Vargas enjoyed the performance of Capoeira before he ordered the establishment of the first school to teach Capoeira martial arts. Since then, capoeira has become Brazil''s national sport, and in the 1970s, it quickly became popular all over the world. Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, also known as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, is a martial art that specializes in subjugation, is good at capturing techniques, and combines mixed martial arts and systematic self-defense. Originated from Japanese Jiu-Jitsu, it was brought to Brazil by Mitsuyo Maeda, the boss of Hakutsuru Brewery mentioned above and apprentice of Jigoro Kano of the Kano Zaibatsu, and taught it to his friends Carlos Gracie and Ruiz Fran?a. Finally, it was carried forward in the hands of Elio Gracie, the famous general of the Gracie family, and "overcome the strong with softness" and "overcome the strong with the weak" as the guiding strategic principles, and finally became a new genre of Jiu-Jitsu. Gracey Jiu-Jitsu in this period is not as famous as later generations, and it is dubbed the title of Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. At this time, Gracie Jiu-Jitsu began to rapidly become popular in Brazil. At only 38 years old, Elio Gracie, the founder of Gracie Jiu-Jitsu, was in his prime. Founded in 1925, the Gracie School in Rio de Janeiro has developed very rapidly, and Gracie Jiu-Jitsu has also opened a school in Sao Paulo. It seems that my old man may still be a martial arts enthusiast! However, when the old man forced himself to practice martial arts when he was young, he could also find some clues. Fang Lang didn''t refuse the old man''s request, and after thinking about it, he said: "Grandpa, I absolutely agree with cultivating Chinese martial spirit. Can you see if this works? In school, we organize students to do physical exercises and add military training. To improve everyone''s physical fitness. Then, find a way to recruit some martial arts masters and martial arts genres, and come to Brazil to open a school to teach students. Let students who are interested in learning martial arts voluntarily choose a martial arts as an elective course, what do you think? " Unexpectedly, the old man was very persistent about this matter. He glanced at Fang Lang and said dissatisfiedly: "Just physical exercise, what''s the use of improving physical fitness. When being bullied, good physical fitness has no effect other than being more resistant to beatings. It was impossible to fight back at all, and in the end it was not passive to be beaten. You allow interested students to take martial arts, what if no one is interested? My Chinese martial arts still can''t flourish. I think if you were not forced to train by my old man, would you be famous in school? " What the old man said made Fang Lang''s head full of black lines. He was already so old, and he had achieved some small achievements. He also used his fight at school as an example, which made Fang Lang blush a little. However, when I think about it, the reason why I was able to dominate the school had a lot to do with my grandfather forcing me to practice the cropping moves. Grandpas meaning was also expressed very clearly, that is to make everyone take martial arts as a compulsory course. Fang Lang thought for a while, and also guessed some grandpas'' hearts. It seems that the old man should have been bullied a lot in Brazil when he was young, so he had such a profound experience and made such a request. "That way, we will recruit some masters from various schools from our hometown, and open a museum in Brazil to accept apprentices, so that these foreigners can see the combat effectiveness of our Chinese martial arts." "Let me tell you, not every martial art has real kung fu. Many martial arts are some ostentatious martial arts routines, and they have no combat effectiveness at all. Dont import these things, what we want is the kung fu that can really be used in actual combat. Otherwise, when challenged by other people, I will easily lose, and my reputation of Huaxia Kung Fu will be ruined instead. " It seems that the old man still has some martial arts complex, which is to prevent others from kicking the hall. But this is also a reality. If the Chinese want to survive in Brazil and gain respect, they really need to show their strong side. After all, in this period, in the general perception of foreigners, the Chinese are still the unbearable image with braids. It is still necessary to reshape the powerful image of the Chinese through martial arts fighting. The reason why the Japanese spread Jiu-Jitsu in Brazil is actually to convey the powerful message of the Japanese to the outside world. Even, the Japanese will hold many martial arts competitions in their hometown, and even do everything in order to win. The fundamental reason is to establish a strong image of the Japanese. The purpose of promoting karate and jujitsu to the world is also to export Japanese culture. For now, the Japanese approach is successful. Because he made karate and jujitsu blossom and bear fruit all over the world, and even became Olympic sports. Bangziguo followed suit, spreading the image of South Korea in the world through the form of Taekwondo, and finally developed Taekwondo into a powerful industry. As the ancestor of these schools, Chinese martial arts gradually declined. Thinking of this, Fang Lang couldn''t help but start to admire the old man''s foresight. Maybe the old man didn''t have any idea of ??systematically promoting the development of Chinese martial arts. In his mind, he may be thinking about letting Chinese people learn real Kung Fu so that they will not be bullied by foreigners. But this provided Fang Lang with a brand new way of thinking. Think about the Chinese Kung Fu of later generations, relying on Bruce Lee''s dissemination and promotion, it has become a business card of Huaxia. Everyone said that Chinese people know kung fu, Chinese people are not easy to mess with, don''t fight with Chinese people, completely reversed the image of Chinese people in the eyes of foreigners. Now I have an opportunity, why can''t I make good use of it! Maybe by spreading the image of Huaxia Kungfu to the outside world, you can make yourself famous in history, and it may even be far more prominent than your reputation in the business or military circles. Thinking about my name being remembered by all Chinese along with the spread of Chinese Kung Fu around the world, then I am not born again in vain! Of course, he himself may not have much chance to become a person like Bruce Lee, but he can cultivate countless Bruce Lee through his own means! Karate, Taekwondo and the like can be established through ratings and other means to establish a ladder-style promotion ladder to establish a system. Why is kung fu not working? Mingjin, Anjin, Huajin, these skill levels are much higher than karate and taekwondo, aren''t they all ready-made? Isn''t Li Yunze, who he just studied as a teacher in New York, a ready-made master? Isnt the old man Ye Man seen in the movies of later generations also a ready-made master? Maybe I can set up a real Chinese Kung Fu system by gathering these real masters of the actual combat school to change the image of the Chinese in the eyes of foreigners. Even if these masters are unwilling, as long as their kung fu can be passed on, it is not easy to organize these inheritors with their influence among the Brazilian Chinese. In addition, through the media company, I can shoot Kung Fu movies that are close to actual combat, and export Kung Fu culture to the world. Maybe kung fu will become a brand new Olympic sport in the future, and I will be reborn once in vain. "Grandpa, don''t worry. I know what to do. It happened that I met a real kung fu master in the United States some time ago, his name is Li Yunze. I have already worshiped him as my teacher and invited him to Brazil to open a museum to accept students. He is a direct disciple of Bajiquan master Li Shuwen. Kungfu is quite good, I fought against him in New York, and I couldn''t survive a move. This is the first time I know what beating someone is like hanging a painting. This is still the case when the other party shows mercy. " Fang Lang''s words made the old man''s eyes widen, and he said in disbelief: "What? Are you serious? Does the legend of beating people like hanging paintings really exist? Tell me quickly what happened at that time. " The people sitting here are all his family members, of course Fang Lang will not hide anything, after all, it is not a shame to lose to a real martial arts master. So, Fang Lang described the situation at that time, the process and details of the fight in detail. This time, not only the old man, but also several men present surrounded him in astonishment. Fang Xinshui couldn''t help but said: "Lang''er, are you serious? Just put your back in your arms, and you fly out and stick to the wall? " There is no need for Fang Lang to answer, the old man already said excitedly: "What do you know, at this time Tieshanke, I heard from your grandfather that a real master can easily break a tree as thick as a bowl. This is the real master, he is indeed merciful, using ingenuity. Otherwise, just this one blow can break your sternum and damage your internal organs. Since you have worshiped him as your teacher, where is he now? Hurry up and take my old man to see him, I want to ask him for advice. " Fang Xinshui also coughed twice and said: "Lang''er! Tell me, if I go to worship Master Li as my teacher, is it too urgent to start learning martial arts now?" Then he seemed to think of something and said: "Wait, it doesn''t seem to work, so we will become brothers, and this generation will be messed up. This will not work. " Everyone around heard Fang Xinshui talking to himself, and burst into laughter, and the atmosphere became extremely cheerful for a while. "Grandpa, don''t worry, the master is still in New York, I am going to build a Bajiquan gym in Sao Paulo, and let the master come to open the gym and recruit students. I heard Grandpas request today, and I also think it makes sense. I immediately sent a telegram to the master, asking him to leave as soon as possible. We discussed a basic teaching course and trained a group of basic coaches first. Have Kung Fu classes in our schools. Turn around, Uncle, you come forward and arrange for the group''s labor service company and immigration company to recruit some real kung fu masters to Brazil through Hongmen''s relationship in his hometown. I heard that there is a kung fu master named Ip Man in Hong Kong, and he is also a very powerful person. In the future, we will also learn Japanese karate and judo, create a complete Kung Fu system, formulate Kung Fu competitive rules, and carry forward the competitive attributes of Kung Fu. Let every Chinese with kung fu in their bodies, walk on the street, everyone will be in awe, and never dare to bully my Chinese compatriots again. " Fang Lang also took advantage of the trend and put forward the idea of ????creating a kung fu system in his heart. After listening to Fang Lang''s words, the old man was very satisfied. "Okay, my good grandson, I really have an idea. Just do it like this, we want that foreign devil to hide away when he sees us Chinese, and never dare to show his teeth at us again. Second brother, since Lang Er is entrusted to you to be responsible for recruiting masters, you must do it well with your heart. In my lifetime, I hope to see this Kung Fu system established. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 255: inspect Chapter 255 Inspection "Old man, don''t worry! This time when I go to discuss with Mr. Situ about the reorganization of Hongyi Hall, I will mention this matter with them. When I find suitable experts, I will visit them one by one in person." Fang Xinshui was very happy that both Fang Lang and the old man left this matter to him, and he patted his chest and promised to do it well. Seeing that his uncle took over the task, Fang Lang continued to ask the old man: "Grandpa, besides these three requirements, do you have any other requirements for running a school?" The old man shook his head with a smile and said: "No, I just have these three requirements. After your master arrives in Brazil, you must let him come to your home for a while, and I will ask him for advice. well! It''s a pity that I am too old to be useful, otherwise I would also like to see your master''s methods. " "No problem, since you are so interested in kung fu, I will build an eight-level boxing gym near my home. When you have nothing to do, you can stroll over to watch young people practicing. My master is not only good at kung fu, but also a doctor of traditional Chinese medicine. If you have any headaches, let the master show you. " Hearing that the old man wanted to see the master''s methods, Fang Lang couldn''t help laughing. It seems that the old man really loves kung fu! This means that I am in Brazil. If I were in my hometown, I might have to visit famous teachers and learn from them. You can see this from the fact that he can know Capoeira and Gracie Jiu-Jitsu while staying in this small Chinese village. "Oh! Your master is still a Chinese medicine doctor? I heard from Grandpa Ni that Chinese medicine has a special skill that can cure diseases through acupuncture. I dont know if its true, I havent seen it yet! " I didn''t expect the old man to know acupuncture, Fang Lang said with a smile: "You are talking about acupuncture, Chinese medicine does have such methods, not just acupuncture, I think the most amazing part of Chinese medicine is pulse diagnosis. As long as you put your hand on your wrist, you can diagnose whether you have a disease through the pulse of a person. " "So amazing? Then I must ask your master to give me a diagnosis. Are there any other Chinese medicine practitioners among our Chinese immigrants? If there is, we can also support them to open a Chinese medicine clinic in Brazil! At that time, if we have a headache, we can go and have a look. " What the old man said reminded Fang Lang. According to Fang Lang''s understanding, many people in his hometown during this period were slandering traditional Chinese medicine. Even treating Chinese medicine as a witch doctor has caused many Chinese medicine to lose its inheritance. I don''t know that at this time, it is too late to rescue. looked at Fang Xinshuidao again: "Uncle, I heard that the life of Chinese medicine practitioners in my hometown is not very satisfactory, and many people are slandered. My opinion is that you can see if you can introduce some famous Chinese medicine experts from your hometown to develop in Brazil. We can give you some help. You can also search for some classics on traditional Chinese medicine. My hometown may soon fall into war again. When the time comes, there will be chaos, and there may be many precious materials that will be destroyed in the flames of war. If we can save some, let''s save some! After all, this is the treasure of our Chinese civilization for thousands of years, and it cannot be destroyed like this. " Fang Xinshui listened to Fang Lang''s words, nodded repeatedly and said: "I understand, I will notify the staff in my hometown later, and recycle medical classics at a high price. Let everyone see if there is any TCM willing to develop in Brazil. I can tell even if you dont tell me, the smell of gunpowder in my hometown is very strong now! It seems that war is inevitable. " The old man heard the conversation between the two, and asked quickly: "What''s the situation? Didn''t the war end last year? Why is it fighting again?" Fang Lang quickly reached out and patted the old man''s hand and said: "Grandpa, don''t worry, it may not be a bad thing this time." Fang Xinshui said heartlessly: "Father, don''t worry! We immigrated from our hometown now to save people! When the war is over and the hometown returns to normal, everyone can go home and have a look! The current traffic is much more developed than before. You dont have to take a boat for more than half a month, and you have to go through a narrow escape to get there. This time I just took a plane and arrived in two days. This is the reason for the detour. If you want to go back and have a look, I will take you back when the war is over. " "Saving people is good, we save as much as we can, and if we save more, we can save fewer casualties. I cant go back to my hometown. Im getting old and my body cant stand the pain. You are still young, when your hometown is peaceful, you should go back and see more. Our hometown is in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and I dont know if there is anyone in the family. If we can find the ancestral grave, I will go to offer incense sticks for me. " Seeing the old man slowly getting sad, Fang Lang hurriedly said: "Grandpa, you are still very strong! You must live to be at least a hundred years old. Don''t worry, my hometown will definitely get better and better. If you want to go back to your hometown, we can arrange it anytime. " "I can''t go anymore, I''m old, I can''t walk anymore. You are all promising, and I will be worthy of my ancestors. " When everyone saw the old man''s appearance, they couldn''t help but fell silent. In the end, it was the old man himself who broke the sad atmosphere, and said to Fang Lang''s mother: "Okay, don''t be sad, Lang''er is back today, it''s a happy day. Xiuer, when will the boss come back! You hang up the phone to remind me. " Turned his head to look at Fang Lang again and said: "Langer! I heard from your dad that you came back this time for the aircraft factory! Are we capable of building airplanes now? " Fang Lang naturally knew everything about the old man''s question, and he couldn''t stop talking. gave the old man a detailed explanation of his plan for the aircraft manufacturing factory. You explained his current situation to his family members, and after his father Fang Xinshan got off work, the family had a lively reunion dinner together, and then slowly dispersed. Fang Lang, who rested at home for a night, felt very comfortable. After getting up and running and exercising in the village with the guards, he set off with his father to the aircraft factory site selected by Polman. The location of the aircraft factory is still relatively far from Fang Lang''s home. After driving for about an hour, I came to this aircraft factory near Sao Paulo Airport. Ante Polman is waiting at the gate of the factory with several company employees. "Boss, nice to see you again." "Haha Mr. Polman, it seems that you are living well in Brazil. I haven''t seen you for a while, and you have obviously gained weight!" Fang Lang was also very happy to see Polman again. He saw that the manager of the aircraft factory he had recruited from Germany adapted to Brazil very quickly. "Of course, boss, the climate here is very warm, and there is no shortage of food here." Polman is obviously also very satisfied with his life in Brazil. "It''s good if you can adapt, will everyone else adapt?" "Boss, don''t worry! Everyone is very satisfied with their current life." "Well! As long as everyone is satisfied, you can concentrate on your work when everyone is satisfied! Is the environment where you live okay?" "Boss, the living environment is not bad. They are all small buildings that have just been repaired. Although the area is small, it is very warm." All the personnel who have just come from Germany are temporarily arranged in resettlement houses built by real estate companies. Of course, these are only temporary. The real residence will wait until the location of the factory is officially determined, and then a new place will be found not far from the factory to build a residential area. "Don''t worry! The current housing is only temporary. After the first phase of the factory is completed, we will start building new housing for everyone. You already know our housing policy, so don''t worry. " "Of course, boss, we all know this, so no one complains about it." "Well! That''s good. If you have any needs, you must respond to us in time. We will do our best to provide you with superior living conditions. I also hope that it doesn''t disappoint my input. " Fang Lang beat these technicians from Germany at the right time. After all, if he blindly paid, it might make everyone feel slack. Pollman nodded again and again after listening to Fang Lang''s words. His status today depends on Fang Lang''s trust. Fang Lang gave such great support, if he still can''t make some achievements, he has no way to explain to Fang Lang. Several people walked into this huge aircraft factory while chatting. Because of the huge area, everyone sat in several open-top Willys jeeps in the factory area. Fang Lang and his father Fang Xinshan sat in the back of the same car, and Polman sat in the passenger seat of the car. It is a special driver who drives. As the vehicle moved forward, Polman turned his head and introduced the situation of the factory area to Fang Lang. "Boss, the first phase of the project is now completed. According to the plan, it will be mainly responsible for refitting the transport aircraft purchased from the Shata Company. Because this work is not complicated, there is no difficulty. Therefore, only two workshops are occupied. " Fang Lang looked a little surprised at the huge factory building in front of him. The width of this factory building was nearly 60 meters, the length was nearly 200 meters, and the height was nearly 30 meters. It''s not that he hasn''t seen such a large factory building. In fact, Fang Lang has seen such a huge factory building in the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom. What he didn''t expect is that Brazil now has such a construction technology. . Pollman obviously also saw Fang Lang''s surprise, and said with a smile: "Don''t be surprised, the boss. This is a factory building modeled on the aircraft manufacturing workshop of the Fokker Wolf Company. It uses a reinforced concrete structure to pour the factory building, and it can park eight C46 transport planes at the same time for modification." Several people said that the vehicle had already entered the first workshop. The door of the workshop was very wide, enough for the plane to enter and exit, and the interior of the workshop was very empty. It looks very spacious, about the size of a standard football field. Because the modification work has not officially started, only a few workers are arranging work stations and cleaning. After looking at the two factories, Fang Lang nodded in satisfaction and said: "Very good, according to this situation, we can modify sixteen C46 transport aircraft at the same time. The capacity above is enough. If the order volume is sufficient, we can continue to expand the plant to increase production capacity. I learned that some airlines are already purchasing military transport aircraft from Shata Company, and Shata Company has already recommended our company''s aircraft modification business to the other party. You should seize the time to form our own business team and take the initiative to develop business in major airlines. We want to quickly open up the market with our high quality and low price. Let the aircraft factory quickly have its own hematopoietic ability. How about this! In the early stage, we first purchased a C46 and C47 transport aircraft from Shata Company, designed a modification plan, and manufactured a prototype, so that our customers can see our modification capabilities. At the same time, we took the opportunity to exercise our technical team. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 256: labor union Chapter 256 Labor Unions Porman sat in the co-pilot seat of the Willis Jeep, tilting his head to listen to Fang Lang''s orders. "Boss is fine, our designers are not idle during this time, everyone is designing modification plans! In addition to finding ways to arrange more seats, we need to place more seats. Everyone''s energy is mainly concentrated on solving the sound insulation and heat insulation materials of the aircraft. " Fang Lang looked at Polman with interest and said: "Oh! Have you achieved certain results now?" "Of course, boss, we have studied the main sound insulation materials on passenger planes in various countries, combined with the latest scientific achievements in the past two years, we have found a brand new solution. After calculation, the cost of this solution will drop by 20% when the sound insulation effect remains unchanged. The weight is ten percent lighter than the original. " Pollman had a smug expression on his face, and showed his merits to Fang Lang. "Haha. Nice work, can you see the finished product?" Fang Lang was very happy to hear that the company''s team had reduced costs by 20 percent. "Yes, boss, the finished product is now being tested in our laboratory." As he spoke, he pointed to a two-story building on the other side of the factory building with a very large area. The style of this building is still obviously different from the factory building. Fang Lang nodded and said: "Come on, let''s go and have a look." Pollman nodded quickly, signaling the driver to turn around and go to the laboratory. The vehicle bypassed the side of the laboratory and headed towards the main entrance. From a distance, Fang Lang saw someone talking to a group of workers in an open space outside the laboratory. Fang Lang laughed at the pair of Polmans and said: "Why don''t you find an indoor environment for your worker training?" Pollman also saw the crowd not far away, but his face became a little ugly. "Boss, that''s not our worker training." Fang Lang was also taken aback by Polman''s return. "What do you mean? It''s not our worker training, so what is it doing?" Hearing Fang Lang''s question, Polman''s face became even uglier and said: "Boss, those who wear uniforms and listen to the lecture are our workers, but the people who are speaking are not ours." Fang Lang took a serious look at Polman to confirm that the other party was not talking nonsense. Said with displeasure on his face: "What do you mean? In our factory, can outsiders come in directly and train our workers?" Pollman said helplessly: "Boss, this person said he was a staff member of the St. Paul City Council, and he said that he came to the factory to condolence the workers on behalf of the Labor Party. We also asked the City Council, and this person is indeed from the St. Paul City Council. At first we didnt pay much attention to it. Its normal for the government to give condolences to workers, but then this person would come to the factory every two days to give condolences. Each time a part of the workers had to be organized and the lectures lasted for more than two hours. Our work progress has been seriously affected. What''s even worse is that he also wants to pull the staff of our laboratory to listen to him. At first we paid enough attention to it and asked everyone to participate in the activities organized by him, but we didnt understand Portuguese, so we didnt know what he was talking about after listening for a long time. Later, I heard from local workers that he wanted to set up a branch of their Labor Party in our company, form a trade union organization, and lead everyone and the boss to fight for better benefits. Strive to shorten everyone''s working hours. " The more he listened to Polman, the darker Fang Lang''s face became. What''s going on? Is Brazil already that far ahead in this regard? Fang Lang is not opposed to trade union organizations, but he is afraid of encountering the kind of trade union organizations that Fuyao''s Lao Cao encountered in the United States. Judging from the current situation, Fang Lang might have met them. In recent years, with the rapid rise of Big Brother Su, workers'' organizations around the world have begun to blossom. As mentioned above, the reason why the former British Prime Minister gave a speech in the United States was precisely because Churchill saw the impact of this phenomenon on the capitalist world. And this Iron Curtain speech actually opened the prelude to the Cold War. What Fang Lang didn''t expect was that Brazil, a South American country with an underdeveloped economy, had such a situation so early. Suppressing the dissatisfaction in his heart, Fang Lang asked: "Labor Party? Isn''t the Labor Party the political party founded by former Brazilian President Vargas? It has not been established for a long time! As far as I know, the purpose of Mr. Vargas'' establishment of the Labor Party is to attract votes from workers and farmers! It is not the style of the Labor Party to engage in trade unions, isn''t it right? " After finishing speaking, he looked worriedly at his father Fang Xinshan and said: "Dad! Does this happen to other factories in our group?" Fang Xinshan nodded and said: "As far as I know, our steel mills, shipyards, and cigarette factories have already established some kind of trade union organization. However, the number of participants is not large. Because they charge every worker who joins a union five percent of their monthly salary as a membership fee. Most workers are unwilling to pay this fee, so not many people join the union. " Hearing such an answer, Fang Lang suddenly felt his scalp go numb! This is really a monster. My career has just started, and I have encountered such troubles. Do you want to learn from Fuyao''s Lao Cao and directly refuse the trade union to settle in? Fang Lang didn''t even have any interest in visiting the laboratory. After the vehicle stopped, he got out of the car and came to the event site where he was talking. He found a random place and sat down. He wanted to hear what this guy could say. The speaker, seeing the style of Fang Lang and others, knew that he was a big shot in the factory, especially when he saw Polman by Fang Lang''s side, he knew that Fang Lang and others might be the boss of the company. Not only did he not show timidity, but he showed more enthusiasm. His eyes still looked at Fang Lang provocatively from time to time. Fang Lang didn''t care, and continued to sit there and listen to this guy talking nonsense. Fang Lang was a little worried at first, afraid that this guy would really make all the workers limping. But listening, Fang Lang found that although this guy was very passionate, his eloquence seemed to be pretty good. But the logical thinking is not clear enough, and the grasp of theoretical knowledge is not solid enough, and it is repeated over and over again that workers should have those rights. The meaning of preaching is relatively strong. Fang Lang, who was listening below, was a little anxious for him, and his level of ideological work was worse than his own! Fang Lang believes that the theoretical knowledge he has learned in later schools is enough to beat the two knives in front of him. I heard the other party keep bragging about the benefits of joining the trade union, and what kind of benefits they can fight for everyone. This actually made the workers a little bit excited. But then this guy said another sentence, the fee standard for joining a trade union. A basin of cold water was poured directly on the workers'' heads, which quickly cooled the enthusiasm of the workers who had just developed a little interest. After watching this guy''s performance for a while, Fang Lang shook his head helplessly. It''s not that Fang Lang looks down on the other party. Even if this guy can set up a trade union organization in his factory, it is estimated that very few people join. No wonder his father Fang Xinshan said that not many people joined the labor union in the other factories. Fang Lang doesn''t like this guy, but it doesn''t mean that Fang Lang doesn''t like the power of the union. He won''t relax his vigilance against them carelessly. After all, the manufacturing industries of many developed countries in later generations were destroyed by this humble organization. The other party had been preaching here for nearly an hour. Although Fang Lang felt that this guy''s level was not good, he didn''t choose to leave. Instead, he waited quietly for the other party to finish his speech. Porman didn''t understand why the boss sat here and listened to this incomprehensible guy say something that was not conducive to the development of the factory, and he didn''t look angry at all. He even noticed disdainful expressions on the corners of Fang Lang''s mouth many times. Fang Xinshan took the time to come here today to accompany his son to visit the aircraft factory that will open soon, and he has plenty of time. Although he didn''t understand why Fang Lang spent so much time listening to this guy talking nonsense here. But he is not all fruitless. He only knew that this organization called the trade union had appeared in his company, but this organization did not attract his attention. But today, after he heard what this guy was spreading, his face became a little ugly. Isn''t this an organization that specializes in fighting against his boss? Negotiate with the boss on behalf of the workers, reduce working hours, and increase wages. How can there be such a good thing. What''s more, he wants to organize everyone to go on strike and threaten the boss. If this really makes this organization grow stronger, wouldn''t your own factory become a part-time job for them? The more Fang Xinshan heard it, the darker his face became. He wished he could drive this **** out of his factory, but he soon calmed down. Because he can notice things, he believes that Fang Lang must also understand. But Fang Lang''s performance was not angry at all, but he looked a little disappointed. Now he is sitting among the workers, and it is not easy for him to ask, he can only ask in private after the event is over. Finally, the event is over. Fang Lang stood up with a smile, and took the initiative to shake hands with the other party: "Hello, my name is Fang Lang, and I am one of the shareholders of this company. I have to say that your speech was wonderful, and I gained a lot from it! I think it is necessary for me to re-examine the relationship between us and workers. I don''t know if I have the honor to know your name. " The other party obviously did not expect that Fang Lang, who is the representative of the factory management, would have such an attitude. This is the exact opposite of what he expected. When he came here today, he had already heard that the boss of the factory was going to inspect the factory. Someone dissuaded him from canceling today''s speech event to avoid direct conflict with the management and cause unnecessary trouble. But after thinking it over and over again, he rejected other people''s kindness. Instead, he deliberately moved the venue of the speech event to an open space outside the laboratory building. He just wanted to let the management representatives who came to inspect the factory today see the event he hosted. Moreover, he is looking forward to the employer taking some coercive measures against him, preferably allowing himself and the other party to have conflicts in front of everyone. He must let all the workers feel that he is determined to fight for everyone''s welfare, and let everyone see that there is nothing terrible about the management. Thus choose to stand firmly with him and fight against these capitalists together. It would be great if I could get slightly injured, so that as a staff member of the city government, I was beaten by the management when organizing activities in the factory. If I show more heroism, then my status in the party will definitely be improved. What people didn''t expect was that the young shareholder of the other party did not play cards according to common sense at all! He even took the initiative to praise himself for his excellent speech, and wanted to re-examine the relationship between himself and the workers. Didn''t the other party feel that he was deliberately provocative? Didn''t your eyes perform well enough in the speech just now? (end of this chapter) Chapter 257: run a school Chapter 257 Running a School Tim Cotton is less than thirty years old and is a loyal supporter of President Vargas. When Mr. President just announced the formation of the Labor Party, he did not hesitate to join the newly established party. Unexpectedly, the presidential election, which was a sure thing, turned out to be out of control because of a farce by the Japanese. In the end, it brought the country into an emergency state of military control. Mr. President was hijacked by the Japanese. After the situation calmed down, when the country resumed elections, President Vargas unexpectedly lost the election. This is unacceptable to him. He feels that the whole thing is the fault of the Japanese. If it were not for the occupation of the presidential palace by the Japanese, Mr. President would not be injured. Not to mention losing the sure-fire presidency. Fortunately, Mr. President did not give up. The Labor Party found a new direction and began to look for the largest group of voters in the country, workers and farmers. Facts also prove that Mr. President''s choice is not wrong. Although the presidential election failed this time, the membership of the Labor Party began to grow rapidly after the Labor Party shifted its direction. Especially, after the Labor Party learned from the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and established a trade union organization. The influence of the Labor Party among the workers is growing rapidly. Judging from the current situation, Mr. Vargas will definitely be re-elected in the next presidential election. But what he doesn''t know is that the most that the Labor Party learns is to imitate cats and tigers, getting its shape but not its spirit. Continuing to develop according to the current situation, the so-called trade union organization of the Labor Party will definitely become a new money-making tool for the top leaders of the Labor Party. After all, five percent of each worker''s monthly income is used as union dues, which is not a small sum. As for whether they can achieve what they promised to the workers at the beginning, of course they don''t have to worry. After all, as long as President Vargas is re-elected as the President of Brazil, the government can use administrative orders to make the bosses of various factories follow the orders. This is also the confidence conveyed to them by the superiors of the party department, and it is also the reason why they dare to go to various factories, construction sites, and farms to promote the ideas learned from the Soviet Communist Party. The bosses of various factories have always been very disgusted with their arrival, but they did not expect to meet a different kind today. Hi! Mr. Fong, my name is Tim Cotton and I am a Labor Party member from St. Paul City Council. You are too generous, and we are also considering the interests of the workers. I hope Mr. Fang will forgive me for my offense today. " The so-called people who don''t smile when they reach out, Fang Lang''s attitude is impeccable. He provoked him many times, but the other party was not angry, but took the initiative to chat with him. Of course, I have to show the quality of the staff of the St. Paul City Council and the measurement of the Labor Party members. Fang Lang waved his hands indifferently and said: "No, no, I really think what you said today is very good and right. Our factory has indeed ignored the interests and demands of workers. As a shareholder of the company, I must seriously reflect and come up with practical solutions. Keep the working brethren happy. " Tim Cotton was obviously overwhelmed by Fang Lang''s attitude, so he nodded and said: "Mr. Fang, it''s not too late for you to realize this. It is our common desire to satisfy the workers. If there is anything that needs my help, please feel free to ask. " The Labor Party is not the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, and Tim Cotton never thought of completely offending the capitalists for the benefit of the workers. This is very ignorant. Provoking Fang Lang earlier was just a means, not an end. Just like the Labor Party wooing workers, this is all a means, not an end. The real goal of the Labor Party is the votes in the hands of workers and farmers. Fang Lang nodded with a smile and said: "Mr. Cotton, please rest assured! If I need help, I will definitely go to the city council to ask you for advice. " After finishing speaking, he stopped entangled with the other party, turned around and walked towards the experimental building. This made Mr. Tim Cotton, who was still thinking about getting closer to Fang Lang and others, quite disappointed. Seeing Fang Lang walking towards the laboratory building, Polman hurried forward to lead the boss. Fang Xinshan and Fang Lang walked side by side, looking at Fang Lang who was still smiling with some doubts: "How are you going to deal with this trade union organization?" Fang Lang turned his head and glanced at Fang Xinshan, who had an ugly face, smiled and said: "What''s wrong? Haven''t trade unions already been established in several other factories? I didn''t see any reaction from you! " "So I didn''t know that this so-called trade union organization was specifically responsible for opposing us. There are still very few people joining them. If all the workers in the factory join this trade union organization, then we will be very passive. " Fang Xinshan''s tone became a little anxious. In the time of two sentences, several people have entered the laboratory, and the staff of the laboratory are looking over. Fang Lang whispered to Fang Xinshan: "Dad, don''t be impatient, let''s take a good look at the achievements of everyone''s hard work, and then slowly discuss how to solve the problem of the trade union." Fang Xinshan looked at the surrounding environment, nodded, and didn''t say anything more. Polman saw that the two were no longer communicating, so he hurriedly stepped forward and introduced to Fang Lang the person in charge of each experimental area and the specific research projects. The visit of Fang Lang and others was actually a fleeting look. Focused on the new sound insulation and heat insulation materials mentioned by Polman. Unfortunately, these things touched Fang Lang''s knowledge blind spot. Fang Lang did not conduct relevant research on advanced high-tech products of aircraft. Fortunately, the staff in the laboratory are all real professionals, and they are also absolute high-level talents in this era. Fang Lang has always pursued that professional things should be done by professional people. Fang Lang only wore his eyes and ears throughout the whole process, and he didn''t say much except affirming the results of everyone''s work. After seeing the comparison experiment of the old and new materials, Fang Lang nodded with satisfaction, fully affirmed the results achieved by everyone, and asked the staff of the legal department to seize the time to apply for technical patents for each new achievement. And give double rewards in terms of economy and professional titles to laboratory personnel who have achieved results. "Polman, I am very satisfied with everyone''s work enthusiasm and the work results you have achieved. However, I also found some problems. Look, everyone has technicians from Germany, and there are not enough local technicians. Once everyone gets older, there may be gaps in the technical talents of our factory, which is very scary. Therefore, I want to build a professional college near the factory that specializes in training talents in our aircraft manufacturing industry. See if you can discuss with Professor Tan Ke and the others. After work, spare some time to go to school to teach and train a group of qualified successors for our factory. At the same time, it can also increase everyone''s income! " This idea was conceived after Fang Lang thought of improving the cultural level of the Chinese. After all, these talents in the factory are rare elites in this era. It is a waste not to make good use of it. If there are more Chinese faces in my aircraft factory in the future, I will be considered a success. Perhaps, when some ethnic Chinese choose to return to their hometowns to develop, they can be regarded as contributing to the aviation industry of their hometowns! "Boss, what you said is very reasonable. Some time ago, someone told me that they lack assistant researchers, and many simple and repetitive tasks need to waste a lot of their time and energy. We want to recruit some local personnel in Brazil, but we found that there are too few people who meet our requirements. I absolutely support your idea of ??running a school. Dont worry, Ill talk to Professor Tan Ke and the others right away, and Ill definitely convince them to join this plan. " Pollman''s attitude made Fang Lang very satisfied. The person in charge of this aircraft factory, Fang Lang, did not make a mistake. "Tomorrow''s opening ribbon-cutting, I won''t come, we must hurry up and implement the school." After explaining a few more words, Fang Lang didn''t stop, and stayed too long. He still had a dinner to attend in downtown St. Paul. On the car back to the city, Fang Xinshan couldn''t help asking Fang Lang: "Why did you suddenly think of running a school? We don''t have enough staff, we can go out and recruit! Brazil will definitely have Europe and the United States without it. " "The recruited people are not our own after all. Actually, my real purpose is to cultivate a batch of our own Chinese aircraft designers. These design talents from Germany are real talents, and it would be a waste if they are not properly utilized. Besides, we did not start aircraft manufacturing so quickly in the early stage, just taking the opportunity to train enough of our own people. Two years after our own people have mastered a certain foundation, we will start to design and manufacture our own aircraft. Everyone participates in the design and manufacture personally, which will accelerate everyone''s growth. Once we Chinese can make outstanding contributions in such a sophisticated position, the status of our Chinese in Brazil will also rise, further expanding our influence in Brazil. " There is a tacit understanding between father and son in finding ways to expand the influence of Chinese in Brazil, so Fang Xinshan said directly: "Then I will immediately let the people below start the planning and construction of the school, and strive to complete the construction of the school as soon as possible. From immigrants and laborers, select some young people with a certain foundation in mathematics, physics and chemistry to study in schools. Do you think these Germans will be willing to teach their students their true skills? " Fang Lang looked at the ever-regressing scenery on the side of the road with his eyes, and said firmly: "If they are not willing to teach seriously, we let these students follow them to observe and study, and they can always see some tricks, can''t they? We can also spend a lot of money to hire some professional scholars and professors from abroad to teach in our schools. At that time, we must cultivate enough mathematics, physics and chemistry talents for our use. For the investment in education, we must not be stingy, it takes ten years to cultivate trees, and a hundred years to cultivate people. I believe our investment will not be in vain. " Fang Xinshan also nodded firmly. The two looked at the scenery outside the window, each lost in thought. After a while, Fang Xinshan said: "Are you going to communicate with Mr. Mayor Scalia about the trade union?" Fang Lang shook his head. "The matter of the trade union is not that simple, we cannot take tough measures, and the government cannot take coercive measures, After all, this is one of the three major parties in Brazil, the Labor Party''s campaign method. If we take a tough stance, we will completely offend the Labor Party. Judging from the current development momentum of the Labor Party, this is very unwise. " "But if we let them continue to develop like this, we will become very passive by then. As long as they can really open a breakthrough from a factory and force a factory owner to make concessions, their scale will definitely expand rapidly, and we will be in trouble by then. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 258: New way to play Chapter 258 New gameplay Of course Fang Lang understood his father''s concerns, and he even knew more about the power of the trade union than his father. However, after he learned about the hard work of the workers during this period, he couldn''t help shaking his head and sighing. Workers in this period are really not treated like human beings! Workers in most parts of the world are still on a twelve-hour day, with only one day off per month. Fang Lang didn''t pay attention to this issue before, so he didn''t know much about this situation. But after learning about this situation from Mr. Tim Cotton''s speech today, I couldn''t help but click my tongue secretly. This kind of high-intensity labor, where are the workers! This is using people as slaves. Everyone doesnt even have time to rest, which is actually not conducive to improving work efficiency in the long run. Fang Lang did not object to the ten-hour work system proposed by the Labor Party trade union, which is why Fang Lang took the initiative to express his gratitude to Mr. Tim Cotton. Even Fang Lang wants to adjust the one-day rest time per month to two days per month. It''s not that Fang Lang has a dark heart and doesn''t want to give workers more rest time. It''s a common phenomenon in this era. If Fang Lang directly informs the factory to implement an eight-hour working system in the future, he will have two days off a week. The bosses of other factories will hate Fang Lang to death, and Fangyuan Group will become the target of public criticism, and capitalists all over the world will follow them. Perhaps the development of Fangyuan Group will be directly and seriously affected. "Don''t worry! How to deal with the trade union, I already have a general idea in my heart, and it shouldn''t be difficult to solve." Fang Xinshan saw Fang Lang''s indifferent expression, so he didn''t continue to ask. Based on his understanding of his son, the other party will definitely be able to understand the problems he can think of. So, just stop disturbing Fang Lang''s meditation. Soon, the vehicle arrived at the door of the hotel that he had agreed with Mayor Scalia. After greeting his father, Fang Lang got off the car and walked into the hotel. Fang Xinshan did not participate in this dinner party. The company''s business was very busy, and he was in a hurry to go back to the company to deal with it. As soon as he entered the restaurant, Fang Lang saw his cousin Yang Gan walking towards him. Fang Lang smiled and greeted the other party. Under the guidance of Yang Gan, he entered a private room with a very nice environment. The area of ??the private room is not large. There is a long table in the middle and three stools on each side. There is a large window on the wall facing the box door, and two people are sitting on the sofa under the window, drinking coffee and chatting. The two saw Fang Lang coming in, and quickly got up to greet him. Fang Lang and Mayor Scalia had met as early as when Fang Lang went home to visit relatives for the first time, but at the beginning, Fang Lang expressed himself through the introduction of the police chief Sebastio Hodges. Wanting to build a cigarette factory in Sao Paulo, the two parties got in touch. At the beginning, Fang Lang was just a small role in front of Mayor Scalia. If he wanted to know Mr. Mayor, he had to pass the introduction of Director Sebastio Hodges. Now the status between the two parties has changed. When Mayor Scalia heard that Fang Lang was returning to his hometown to visit his relatives, he rushed to ask for a meeting. This is certainly related to Fang Lang''s status as a naval colonel, but more importantly is the influence of Fang Lang''s family business Fangyuan Group. In Western capitalist society, if government officials want to secure their positions, they must find powerful supporters in the business world. Only when they find powerful supporters can they have the opportunity to obtain sufficient campaign funds. "Colonel Fang, welcome home." Mayor Scalia walked to the door of the box very proactively and enthusiastically, and stretched out his hands. Fang Lang also stretched out his right hand, and said with a smile: "Mr. Mayor Scalia, nice to see you again." After speaking, the two gave a big hug. After greeting, Mayor Scalia pointed to the middle-aged man beside him and said: "Colonel Fang, this is our Sao Paulo city council speaker, Mr. Carol Dorje, and also the party chairman of our National League in Sao Paulo." Fang Lang didn''t expect that this was the speaker of the city council. Normally, the two should be on an equal footing in Sao Paulo. That is the two biggest giants in Sao Paulo. Before Fang Lang could speak, Mr. Duoji had already stretched out his right hand and said: "Mr. Fang, nice to meet you!" The other party did not follow Mayor Scalia to call himself a colonel, but instead called himself a gentleman. Obviously, this is a private gathering and has nothing to do with your government positions. After Fang Lang returned to Sao Paulo, he always wore a suit instead of a military uniform, just to let everyone ignore his military status. Including his guards, all of them wore uniform black suits, more like bodyguards than facing guards. Fang Lang smiled and grabbed the other''s right hand, holding them tightly. "Mr. Dorji, I am also very glad to meet you." Mayor Scalia smiled when he heard the names of the two. The reason why he called Fang Lang a colonel was actually to congratulate Fang Lang. After all, when the two met for the first time, Fang Lang''s military rank was only one. Little Lieutenant. Being able to be promoted to a colonel with real power in such a short period of time, of course Mayor Scalia would like to congratulate Fang Langbiao. In fact, the relationship between government officials and the military in Brazil is still relatively distant. Because soldiers are not allowed to join political parties. Of course, after you retire, it doesnt matter how you want to join. After exchanging pleasantries, the three entered the table and sat down. Since several people have lunch together, it is impossible to start talking about business directly. Therefore, everyone in front of them is talking about their respective anecdotes. It wasn''t until after lunch that Mayor Scalia took the initiative to change the topic to business. "Mr. Fang, thank you for your family''s investment in Sao Paulo, which has provided enough jobs for us in Sao Paulo. Today I have an appointment with Mr. Speaker, mainly to know your opinion on our National League? " Fang Lang didn''t expect that the other party would bring up such a big topic, how could he answer it? "Mr. Scalia, you know that I am a soldier and cannot participate in politics. So, I dare not have any opinion on the National League. " Luo Er Duoji understood that Fang Lang had obviously misunderstood Scalia''s meaning, and quickly said: "This is Mr. Fang. As far as we know, Fangyuan Group became the major shareholder of Nice Company through a share swap during the process of introducing the automobile industry system from Germany. We all know that the Nice company is actually the backstage funder of the Social Democratic Party. Now that Fangyuan Group has become the majority shareholder of Nice Company, does this mean that Fangyuan Group will fully support the development of the Social Democratic Party in the future? " Luol Duoji''s words finally made Fang Lang understand the main purpose of the other party''s meeting with him today. This is worrying that the Fangyuan Group, which is now in full swing, has completely fallen to its political opponent, the Social Democratic Party. Fang Lang smiled at the two of them and said: "You two are worrying too much. Fangyuan Group is a commercial company, not a political family. We will not choose sides. We will support whoever can protect the interests of our Fangyuan Group. For now, Sao Paulo is the base camp of the National League, but we have made a large investment here. Even, my cousin, Mr. Yang Qian, also joined the Kuomintang, so you two dont have to worry about our Fangyuan Groups position at all? " Hearing Fang Lang''s statement, the two looked at each other, with satisfied smiles in their eyes, and they seemed obviously relieved. Mayor Scalia first laughed and said: "Fang, I just said that we are friends, and you will definitely not support my work. However, although your Fangyuan Group has invested a lot in Sao Paulo, you rarely contact our local National League members. This worries our party chairman very much. " As he spoke, he also indicated with his eyes that he was talking about Speaker Luo Erduoji. Hearing Scalia''s words, Fang Lang understood what the other party meant. This is Mr. Luo Erduoji, the chairman of the National League Party, who was worried about whether the Fangyuan Group would completely fall to the Social Democratic Party. Luol Duoji didn''t mind Scalia''s behavior of selling himself, so he smiled and said to the other party: "Mr. Fang, thank you for answering my confusion. Please rest assured that our National League will resolutely safeguard the interests of the Fangyuan Group in Sao Paulo. If the Fangyuan Group has any proposals for the construction of Sao Paulo, you can contact me, and I will definitely actively promote it. " This is considered a direct statement. These foreigners are really not reserved at all. But Fang Lang likes people who talk straight, because he has never been in officialdom or office in two lifetimes, and he can''t understand some things. Fang Lang thought for a while, and said directly: "You two also know that my hometown is very chaotic now because of the war. In addition to the lack of human resources in Brazil, our Fangyuan Group is immigrating from our hometown to Brazil. Because of the large number of immigrants, there may be some unharmonious voices. I want Parliament to push a bill that supports our immigration practices. and facilitate the acquisition of legal status in Brazil by new immigrants. " Luol Duoji pondered for a while and said: "Mr. Fang, I think your proposal is very meaningful. Population has always been an obstacle restricting Brazil from becoming a big country. I personally agree with this proposal of yours. I think our members of the National League also have their own hands. Your idea, we will form a document as soon as possible, and after internal discussion, it will be handed over to you for review. If you think it is feasible, we will directly submit it to the National Legislative Assembly for discussion. Please believe that our National League will do our best to support our friends. " Fang Lang didn''t expect that the speaker in front of him would act so vigorously. One of his proposals, the other party immediately expressed that he would directly submit it to the National Legislative Assembly for discussion. Once passed, it will become the law of Brazil. Then the interests of the Chinese in Brazil will be directly recognized by law. This is really awesome. Fang Lang knew for the first time that politics was played like this. Regarding the statement of Speaker Luo Er Duoji, of course Fang Lang has to express something. "I really like Mr. Duoji''s behavior style. Please rest assured that Mr. Fangyuan Group never treats friends badly. Today, I will ask the chairman of Fangyuan Group to issue orders to each of its subsidiaries, and each subsidiary will establish a friendly and trustworthy partnership with the local National League organization. " Although Fang Lang did not express that he would fully support the National League, Speaker Luo Er Duoji has gained a lot today. He understands that this kind of friendly and mutual trust partnership has no practical significance. However, he believes that once the bill on Chinese immigration mentioned by Fang Lang just now satisfies Fang Lang, the relationship between this partner will take a big step forward. As for whether this bill will be passed, he is not worried at all. After all, with the participation of the National League and the influence of the Fangyuan Group on the Social Democratic Party. If this bill is not passed, it will be hell. In Fang Lang''s mind, he also wanted to pass this bill to test whether the Fangyuan Group''s influence in the Social Democratic Party is really as huge as everyone said. If there is such a big influence, many of Fang Lang''s plans can be accelerated. (end of this chapter) Chapter 259: Speechless Fangyuan Group Chapter 259 The Speechless Fangyuan Group What Fang Lang didn''t know was that when he was having lunch with Mayor Scalia and Mr. Carol Dorje, Speaker. Mr. Tim Cotton, whom he met at the aircraft factory in the morning, is reporting to the head of the Labor Party in Sao Paulo what happened today. "You just said that the boss you met was a young man in his twenties." Originally, this was just a routine daily work report, but Tim Cotton didn''t take it to heart. He just reported today''s work content and results to his superiors. Unexpectedly, the superior would be very interested in which young boss he met. "Yes, Mr. Chairman. And, it seems that the Germans respect each other very much, calling him boss. When he introduced himself to me, he also said that his name is Fang Lang, and he should be the eldest son of the Fang family who served as a colonel in the navy. " "Wait, see if it''s this person?" As he spoke, the person in charge took out a photo from the drawer in front of him and put it on the table, motioning for Tim Cotton to check it out. In the photo in between, it is Fang Lang in military uniform. "That''s right, it''s him." "Then it can''t be wrong, he is Fang Lang, the colonel commander of the Brazilian Navy''s First Fleet." This man is very strange. I encouraged workers in the factory to join our trade union organization to fight against his company. Instead of being angry, he even expressed his gratitude to me. "Oh! Please explain the situation to me carefully." Tim Cotton explained the situation to his immediate superior in detail. The person in charge also felt a little baffled after hearing what Tim Cotton said. But he didn''t make any comments, but nodded to show that he understood. "Go down! By the way, forget about the photos I showed you today, you just came here to report today''s work progress at the aircraft factory, understand?" Tim Cotton didn''t take it seriously. After all, what he reported was normal work content. Is there any shameful thing, and is there any need to keep it secret. But what Tim Cotton didn''t know was that after he left his superior''s office, his leader picked up the phone on his desk and called out. "Sir, the target appeared in St. Paul this morning." "Yes, my people have confirmed the photo, it''s him right." "The current location cannot be confirmed, but since the other party has returned to Sao Paulo, he will definitely return home." "Yes, I understand." When he hung up the phone, a cold light flashed in his eyes. Immediately afterwards, he got up and left his office. After picking up his Ford car in the parking lot, he left the office directly. After lunch, Fang Lang did not go home directly, but drove directly to the office building of Fangyuan Group''s headquarters in downtown Sao Paulo. With the current status of Fangyuan Group in Sao Paulo, the environment of the office building is naturally not bad. This five-story office building located in the bustling area of ??the city center is a rare high-rise building in the urban area of ??Sao Paulo. Father''s office is located in the leftmost large office on the fifth floor. Fang Lang came to his father''s office for the first time. The whole office looked very simple, without any luxurious elements. What attracted Fang Lang''s attention the most was a pair of large characters "Da Zhan Hongtu" hanging horizontally on the wall on the right. Below the big characters is a reception area, where several faces Fang Lang is not familiar with are reporting work to his father. Everyone was taken aback when they saw Fang Lang coming in. Fang Xinshan saw that he was his son, so he didn''t introduce him to everyone, but said to Fang Lang: "Sit back first, I''ll talk to you after I''m done." Fang Lang nodded with a smile, and continued to look at the layout of the office. I found that there was nothing to attract my attention except this picture. A little bored, he randomly pulled out a book from the bookshelf behind the desk and read it. I didn''t expect it to be a "Romance of the Three Kingdoms", which surprised Fang Lang a little. Because I am in Brazil, I havent seen this kind of Chinese books for a long time. Sit directly on the boss chair behind the desk, put his legs on the desk, and began to read the Republic of China version of "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". Several people who were reporting work to Fang Xinshan, seeing Fang Lang''s performance, murmured in their hearts, who could this master be? Being able to play wild in the chairman''s office so casually. After finally waiting for several people to report their work, Fang Xinshan smiled at Fang Lang who was leaning on a chair and reading with relish. If it turned out that Fang Lang put his legs on his table so recklessly, Fang Xinshan would have kicked him over. But now the relationship between father and son is quite different from before. The son''s excellence has long exceeded his father''s expectations, so he has become a lot more tolerant of his son. Fang Xinshan saw that his son was watching seriously, coughed twice and said: "Put your legs down, sit or not, what''s the matter?" Fang Lang looked up and saw that everyone in the office had left, not only took his feet off the desk slowly, but said: "Dad! The management of your company is too casual. I came in directly from the company gate, and asked for directions all the way to your office, but no one asked me what I did! There are no appointments. There is not even a security guard at the gate. Aren''t you afraid of someone breaking in and stealing some documents from the company? As far as I know, there are two large-scale gangs in Sao Paulo. With the current size of our Fangyuan Group, what should we do if we are targeted by someone? " Fang Xinshan heard Fang Lang''s words, and said indifferently: "It''s okay, everyone is like this." Fang Lang didn''t expect that his father would be so casual, his face straightened, and he said seriously: "I can''t control what other people are like, but our Fangyuan Group is a formal international large company, and we must become formal. The first step is to set up our own security department and set up gate posts for all departments of the company, and all personnel must be registered when entering and leaving. I will use my connections in the military to start a legitimate security company with a gun license. The first batch of employees of the company, I will recruit from veterans who have actual combat experience. I heard that among the laborers from their hometown, there are also many veterans who have fought in wars. Let me see if I can choose some good ones to follow you as bodyguards. It turns out that I haven''t noticed it all the time. It turns out that you drive to and from get off work by yourself, which is really too dangerous. " Fang Xinshan looked at his son helplessly. He really felt that these were unnecessary, but this was because his son cared about him, so he couldn''t refuse. Can only helplessly spread his hands and say: "Okay, okay, you can figure it out yourself! Anyway, the company is yours, you can do whatever you want, but there is no need for bodyguards. I drive to and from get off work every day, and no one can do anything to me. If it is really dangerous, I will just drive over it. " Fang Lang didn''t agree with Fang Xinshan''s ideas very much. Even in his hometown in later generations, such a big boss would have to have a driver and bodyguard. How dare my father dare not be a bodyguard in Brazil, and the company is not worthy of a security guard. The company has been able to operate normally for so long without anyone coming to make trouble, Fang Lang felt a little unscientific. "You tell me that the company is mine, and I can do whatever I want, so listen to me. The security department of the company will be established tomorrow, and I will be responsible for recruiting specific personnel. The second thing is to set up a secretariat, which is responsible for assisting you, handling the company''s business, and arranging your itinerary. At least no one can enter your office casually. There must be a secretary at the door, so that it looks like a formal large company. Looking back, you will give me a chart of the company''s organizational structure, and I will take a closer look to see if it is suitable and what loopholes exist. " Fang Lang knew in his heart that he couldn''t blame his father for this. After all, everyone was just a farmer, and he had never seen what a real big company was like. Fang Lang felt something was wrong when he walked into the company''s gate today. A company in Nuo Da didn''t even have a front desk. After entering the door, no one cared about what he was doing. Along the way, I asked myself which office the chairman was in, and everyone told him casually, without any awareness of vigilance. This is not what a formal company should look like, it is clearly a vegetable market! Fang Lang thought it was a miracle that nothing happened in such a situation. "What kind of secretary do you want? I can do the work myself. Isn''t it a waste of money to hire a secretary?" Fang Xinshan still felt that it was completely unnecessary, and shook his head to refuse. But Fang Lang wouldn''t give him a chance, so he picked up the phone on his desk and dialed out. "Qingshan, I remember that among the laborers we rescued in Natal, there was a man from the Northeast named Xin Shiliang who was the office director of Fengtian City Hall, right?" "Immediately arrange for someone to find him and ask him to come to the headquarters of the Fangyuan Group in Sao Paulo to form a secretariat for my father to assist my father in his work." Seeing that Fang Lang had hung up the phone, Fang Xinshan knew that he was powerless to stop and could only shake his head helplessly. Fang Lang was also afraid that when he was not there, his father would not listen to him and change his decision without authorization. Seriously said to his father: "Dad! These arrangements of mine are not just to lighten your burden, but for our family''s business to become a truly large international company. If we want to be successful, we must be formalized. No matter what we do, we must form a complete system, and we cannot decide how to do it just by scratching our heads. You make the company''s organizational chart as soon as possible, and while I have time at home today, let''s sum up and formalize the company as soon as possible. Don''t let the person in charge of the branch below swallow up all the company''s assets. We still can''t find it, thinking that the company''s poor management caused the loss. " Hearing his son''s last words, Fang Xinshan finally became serious. He just had no contact with what a formal company is like. But he is not stupid, he knows that the possibility his son mentioned is not impossible. If this situation really happened because of his own reasons, then he probably regretted it to death. If his son''s hard-working property was destroyed in his own hands, he would want to die. "Okay! I''ll listen to you. You have seen and understood more about the world than I do. I will do as you say." Fang Lang was relieved when he finally changed his attitude when he saw his father. The original intention of establishing Fangyuan Group was to build a joint venture with Global Shipbuilding to build a shipyard and steel plant in Brazil. I did not expect that Fangyuan Group would develop so rapidly later, and in a short period of time it became a company including tobacco, media, construction engineering, real estate development, labor agency, immigration agency, pharmaceuticals, military industry, aircraft manufacturing, automobile manufacturing, shipbuilding, steel, aluminum, etc. A giant group company in various fields such as soil mining, textiles, salt industry, cement, airport aviation, etc. It even owns a giant company like Nice Company that can control Brazilian agriculture. At the same time, it owns a well-funded bank in the financial field and an asset management company jointly established with Global Trading. It''s not like he didn''t know, but Fang Lang had to admire himself for being able to toss when he was taken aback. (end of this chapter) Chapter 260: turn crisis into opportunity Chapter 260 Turning crisis into opportunity "After returning to the company today, I asked several branches about the development of the trade union organization. I think we should pay attention to it." Seeing his son who was obviously relieved, Fang Xinshan expressed his scruples about the trade union. Fang Lang understood that this was the sequelae of his father''s listening to the union speech today. Looking at the office where there were only himself and his father, Fang Lang lowered his voice and said: "I have already thought of a way to deal with the union." Fang Xinshan heaved a long sigh of relief when he heard Fang Lang''s words, his face was filled with joy, and he said with expectation in his eyes: "Tell me quickly, what should we do, drive them out directly?" It seems that Fang Xinshan has considered head-to-head with the trade union, but such thinking is also normal. No one would like to have forces beyond their control in the factory they invested in. What''s more, this power is still a power that is specially opposed to oneself. Isn''t this raising a tiger? "Actually, trade unions don''t just appear in Brazil. Now with the rise of the big brother of the Su family, it is inevitable that the workers'' minds will start to awaken. This historical trend is not something we can stop." Fang Lang shook his head and denied his father''s thoughts. Seeing that World War II disagreed with his point of view, Fang Xinshan asked anxiously: "Then why don''t we just let them grow and grow in our company, and then turn against us?" Raising his hand to signal his father not to worry, Fang Lang pushed his father to sit on the sofa in the reception area, while smiling confidently and said: "Actually, the trade unions organized by the Labor Party are just copycats. Their fundamental purpose is not to really protect the interests of workers. Therefore, it is actually very simple to deal with them." Fang Xinshan, who just sat on the sofa, was eager to know what could be done for his son, and his face flushed a little. "Then tell me quickly, what should we do." But Fang Lang smiled, and unhurriedly took out a bag of tea from under the coffee table, and took out two teacups. Open the tea box, smell the fragrance of the tea leaves, narrow your eyes in satisfaction and say: "The method is very simple. Since confrontation is not possible, then we can only choose to follow the trend." Seeing Fang Lang taking his time and starting to make tea, Fang Xinshan was in a hurry. "Follow the trend, shall we join in? But we are factory owners!" Fang Lang looked up at his father, beckoning him to be safe and calm, and continued to add tea to the teacup, brought another thermos, and made two cups of tea. Holding one of the cups to his father with both hands, he said: Not to join in, but to set up our own trade union organization. Perhaps influenced by Fang Lang''s calmness, Fang Xinshan''s impatience finally calmed down, and he took two sips of tea made by his son himself. Wanted to take a sip, but the tea was too hot, so he quickly retracted his mouth, put the teacup back on the tea table, and asked with doubts on his face: Set up our own trade union organization? But the workers know that the trade union organization was established by ourselves, how can they join? Fang Lang saw the teacup his father put on the table and smiled. It seems that today his father was indeed a little bit lost because of the statute of the trade union organization. Even the freshly brewed tea was brought to his mouth without even looking at it. He took out two cigars from his suit lining pocket and handed one to his father. He took out a small cigar cutter from his trouser pocket, repaired his cigar head, and handed the cigar cutter to his father before saying: "As long as our trade union can win them, the benefits they want will be enough! Think about it, we refuse to negotiate with the trade union they formed. However, the trade union we established ourselves can help them win the interests they want. Which trade union do you think they will join? " After listening to Fang Lang''s words, Fang Xinshan trimmed the cigar in his hand vigorously, as if he wanted to vent his dissatisfaction on the cigar, and still said aggrievedly: "Then don''t we still have to be coerced by them to give up the company''s interests?" Noticing the movements of his father''s hands, and looking at the cigars that his father had cut to a waste, Fang Lang said helplessly: "This is for sure, if you choose not to give an inch now, you can only face the opponent head-on. But in the face of the torrent of history, a head-on confrontation will only smash us to pieces, and there is no chance of winning. If we follow the trend of history and take the union into our own hands, the initiative will come back to us. For example, the current request from the trade union is to adjust the working hours from 12 hours to 11 hours. Is this asking too much? " Before his father could answer, Fang Lang had already asked himself and answered: "No, that''s not an excessive request in my opinion. Twelve hours of high-intensity labor, workers are very prone to fatigue. When people are tired, it actually affects work efficiency very much. Some jobs are tiring to work, and even accidents are prone to occur. If an accident occurs, we may not only face economic losses, but may also lose a skilled worker. Calculated in this way, workers can be given a certain amount of rest time, which is actually conducive to reducing the loss of the factory and improving the production efficiency of the factory. " Fang Xinshan only changed his identity from a farmer to a capitalist this year, and his idea of ??exploiting workers is actually not strong yet. So, I easily accepted Fang Lang''s statement. Seeing his father nodding, Fang Lang slid the match in his hand, handed the fire to his father, and continued to light the cigar for his father: Actually, in my opinion, accruing wages to workers according to working hours is the most stupid way. We should change our thinking, change the original timekeeping to piecework, set a basic salary and minimum task standard, as long as he completes the number of tasks we stipulate, he can get his own piecework commission based on this piecework standard. Those who cannot complete the task can only get the basic salary, and those who cannot complete the task for several months can only say that they are not suitable for the job. Workers who want to get high wages will naturally find ways to improve their work efficiency. If workers with low work efficiency want to work overtime on their own initiative, we must also clearly tell them that we are a formal enterprise and do not advocate overtime work. Even if you work overtime, I will not give you overtime pay. Leave it to them to decide whether to work overtime. We can still get a good name. " The father who took a long puff of the cigar opened his lips slightly and narrowed his eyes slightly. He didn''t know whether he was reminiscing the aroma of the cigar in his mouth or thinking about Fang Lang''s words. It took a while before he said with a smile on his face: "This method is good. If it is really changed like this, it doesn''t matter if the working time is shortened by two hours." Seeing his father understand his thoughts, Fang Lang also smiled and said: "That''s right, in this case, the trade union we established ourselves can get the benefits everyone wants for his family, but their trade union gets nothing. Of course, the workers know how to choose." Fang Xinshan thought of something, his smile was slightly restrained, his brows were slightly frowned and he said: "What if the head of our trade union is bought by them, and then he doesn''t listen to our command and deliberately opposes us?" Fang Lang took a deep breath of the cigar, held the smoke in his mouth, and gently stirred it in his mouth twice with his tongue, letting the fragrance stay between his lips and teeth before slowly exhaling. Then he took another breath of fresh air before smiling and saying: "Since it is a trade union established by ourselves, we certainly have the right to appoint and remove the chairman of the trade union. If someone does not obey the command, just replace it with another one who obeys the command! In fact, the trade union we established ourselves has another biggest advantage. That is, we dont need to charge workers a membership fee. Do you think workers can refuse a trade union that can protect their own interests without paying for it? If workers cannot be charged a membership fee, the trade union will not have its own source of funds. Leaders at all levels of the trade union must rely on us to pay wages. Who do you think they will listen to? " Fang Xinshan listened to Fang Lang''s words, slapped his thigh, the smoke from his mouth spewed out, stood up and smiled: "Haha. That''s a good idea, let''s do it this way. In the future, the trade union of our group will not be an organization that opposes us, but a department of our company, so there is nothing to be afraid of." Seeing the smile on his father''s face, he knew that his father''s doubts had been dispelled, and his mood recovered. Fang Lang also added with a smile: Actually, the trade union can do many things, such as organizing a small birthday party for every employee who celebrates his birthday. When the weather is hot, on behalf of the company, send some cooling food to the front-line workers. Help some workers from poor families, organize internal donations, etc. Of course, these must be done in the name of the company. This will not only increase the workers recognition of the trade union, but also increase the cohesion of the workers towards the company. " Fang Xinshan also relaxed at the moment, leaning on the leather sofa, and said happily: "Well, then the person in charge of this trade union must be selected well, so that these good reputations will really fall on the company''s head, and don''t be used by those who want to buy people''s hearts." Nodding, Fang Lang said softly: "Actually, the candidates are selected. We can let the workers vote for the members of the grassroots trade unions, and they are elected! But the right to appoint and remove the middle and high level must be in our own hands. Of course, the middle level we choose can also be selected from the grassroots staff elected by the workers, and becoming a middle-level trade union worker can make him leave his original job. Become a full-time trade union worker, and the salary can also be adjusted appropriately. In addition, we continue to train them on the responsibilities of trade union work, so that they know what kind of work they should do. Slowly they will start working according to our work requirements. And they were originally elected by the workers themselves from among the workers. The workers will of course be more convinced by such union cadres. However, there is one thing we must pay attention to, that is, we should not keep those who have joined the trade union formed by the Labor Party and participated in many activities. Slowly look for opportunities to expel these people. During the election of grassroots trade union cadres, we must make it clear that workers who have already joined other trade union organizations are prohibited from joining new trade union organizations. Excluding these Labor union activists from the new union organization from the outset. " At this moment, Fang Xinshan can be said to be in admiration for his own son. It is such a troublesome thing for him. After his operation, not only has it not been troublesome, but it has become a new method for him to manage the factory. This method of turning crisis into opportunity is really sophisticated! "I understand. In the future, we can manage the thoughts of factory workers through trade union organizations." (end of this chapter) Chapter 261: Encounter Chapter 261 Encounter Fang Lang didn''t expect his father''s thinking to change so quickly. He was still worried about the threat of the trade union just now, and now he immediately thought of using the trade union to control the thoughts of the workers. smiled and said: "Actually, if the trade union is managed well, it will have a great effect. In the state assembly or presidential election, if we can guide the votes in the hands of workers through trade unions, then I think any political party will have to pay attention to the influence of our Fangyuan Group! " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Fang Xinshan''s eyes widened with an incredible expression. If this is the case, then in the future, as the Fangyuan Group grows stronger and more workers are employed in the factory, the president will have to give way to the Yuanyuan Group. Time passed quickly, before we knew it, the father and son had been chatting in the office all afternoon. Fang Xinshan listed the company''s organizational structure one by one, and Fang Lang rebuilt a complete and rigorous organizational chart for Fangyuan Group according to the management methods of some large group companies he learned from later generations. Mainly according to the fields of each enterprise, such as: machinery, agriculture, mining, steel, military industry, real estate, media, finance, pharmaceuticals, daily chemicals, etc., ten operation departments have been established. Relevant industries are placed under the management of the director of the operation department, and the operation director is responsible for the operation of each subsidiary. In order to prevent the operation director from having too much power, a financial risk control department was established in the group company to be responsible for supervising the group company''s finances and auditing the company''s accounts on time. The financial control department is also responsible for the appointment authority of the financial executives of each subsidiary. Established the human resources department, responsible for the management of the human resources department of the whole group, and has the right to appoint and dismiss the human resources directors of each subsidiary. At the same time, it is responsible for the personnel appointment and removal authority of the vice president and above positions of each subsidiary in the group company. The newly established group investigation department, labor union, and security department are separately placed under the management of the group company. Although there are still problems of one kind or another in this organizational structure, which may even affect many of the company''s business development, it can also strengthen the group company''s control over its subsidiaries. Fang Lang has made it clear to his father from the very beginning that this structure is not a constant layer, but should be adjusted in time according to the actual situation to adapt to the development trend of the times. The main purpose of adjusting the company''s organizational structure this time is to change the company''s current chaotic management situation and make the company a formal group company. By the time the father and son left the group company, it was already past eight o''clock at night. Fang Lang walked out of the company''s gate, followed by the dim lights, and accidentally discovered that there was a police duty box on the side of the road outside the company. This was a bit beyond Fang Lang''s expectation. He turned around and asked his father beside him: "Did this police box originally exist?" Fang Xinshan looked at the sentry box not far away and thought for a while before saying: "It seems that our company was established about half a month after we moved here! I don''t remember the details, what''s wrong." Fang Lang took a closer look at this seemingly new guard box, and his heart moved. Thinking of Mr. Sebastio Hodges, the chief of the St. Paul Police Department, looking at the two policemen on duty sitting in the guard box, he felt a little enlightenment in his heart. No wonder the company has been here for so long, even without security guards, no one came to harass. Fang Lang thought it was the local gangster who had changed sex! It seems that this is Mr. Hodges, who is helping himself to look after his own property! My father is still confused and doesn''t know what happened. smiled and said: "I finally know why our company has been operating safely for so long without even a security guard. Looks like I owe Director Hodges a lot of favors! " Fang Xinshan heard Fang Lang''s words, glanced at the police box not far away, and instantly understood what was going on in his heart. A little embarrassed said: "Then we have to thank Director Hodges very much. How about inviting him to have a meal at home tomorrow." Fang Lang shook his head helplessly and said: "Tomorrow I''m going to leave for the United States. How about it! In your own name, treat the other party to a meal first. Tell him that when I return to Sao Paulo next time, I will definitely come to the door to express my thanks. " Fang Xinshan nodded and opened the door and got on the driveway: "That''s fine. Speaking of which, I haven''t dealt with this Director Hodges yet! It really shouldn''t be." Fang Lang also got in the car, and signaled to the guard in front that he could drive. "Then you invite him to a meal, I believe he will not refuse. My friendship with him is my friendship with him, but we still have to do the courtesy we should do. When the time comes, visit the Porsche factory in Sao Paulo. After the car rolls off the assembly line, send the trolley to Director Hodges and ask him to help test it. " Fang Xinshan nodded, agreeing with his son''s statement. Along the way, the two talked and laughed and rushed home. What Fang Lang didn''t know was that just as they left the office building of the group company, a person picked up the phone in a room on the third floor of a hotel not far away. After connecting, he said something. "The target has left. There are five vehicles in total. There are 17 guards and drivers. The target is in the middle car." After speaking, he hung up the phone directly. When all this happened, Fang Lang''s attention was being attracted by the police duty box, and he didn''t pay attention to the surrounding environment. But just as the convoy was about to enter the village, Fang Lang suddenly heard a warning sign in his heart, and quickly raised his head to look out the window, only to find that he couldn''t see anything clearly in the dark night. However, there are dangerous warnings on both sides of the road ahead, which is very similar to the situation encountered in the United States. Before he had time to think about it, Fang Lang hurriedly said: "Enemy attack! Be alert!" Fang Lang discovered the danger this time later than when he was in New York last time, which may have something to do with him returning to his hometown and relaxing his vigilance. All attention was focused on the conversation with his father, and this time he did not receive any warning information at all. Didn''t know his hometown, Sao Paulo, someone wanted to harm him. Fortunately, the guards knew what happened in New York and had a plan to deal with it. The vehicle Fang Lang was riding in slowed down directly, turned on the double flashes and constantly changed the far and near lights. The other vehicles in the convoy responded the moment they received the signal. The lead vehicle fired two flares directly to both sides of the road. In an instant, the originally dark roadside became as bright as day, and the enemies hidden in the farmland on both sides were directly exposed to the light of the flares. Fang Lang saw that fortunately the convoy had not completely entered the ambush circle, only the first car and the second car had just entered the ambush circle. Just when the enemy was still a little overwhelmed by the sudden change of the convoy, they all turned their eyes to the commander-in-chief of the operation in the dark. There were two bang bang gunshots from the front car. The commander-in-chief of the operation who was in ambush thought that the people on his side had fired ahead of time, and was furious to see which **** it was. The enemy shot before they even entered the ambush circle. Immediately afterwards, the surrounding environment became clearly visible in an instant. Before he understood what was going on, he heard the sound of firecrackers shooting. It turned out that it was the firepower of the two vehicles in front of the convoy. The moment the flares came on, they started shooting at the targets within sight. When the vehicle in front started shooting, the tail car of the convoy had already started backing up, and at the same time fired two flares to the rear. After finding that there was no abnormality in the rear, he flicked the tail and turned the front of the car to the rear. The penultimate car and the middle car in which Fang Lang was riding also began to retreat rapidly. The lead car and the second car are also backing up while fighting. In just an instant, the ambush soldiers paid the price of three casualties, and the ambush soldiers who reacted also raised their guns and fired. The reversing convoy was quickly attacked by enemy fire. Especially the first car and the second car are taken care of. Because only these two vehicles were tilting their firepower outward, the first reaction of the ambush soldiers was to shoot at them. Soon, the person in charge of the command reacted and cursed: "Idiot, hit the vehicle in the middle, our target is in the middle. Don''t mess with these guards. " But it was too late for him to react, the vehicle Fang Lang was riding in had already retreated a hundred meters away. In the dark night, it is almost impossible to directly attack the target inside the vehicle 100 meters away. More importantly, they are only responsible for attacking from the rear, and the number of them is not large. Most of the people responsible for the ambush are rapidly concentrating on the area where the exchange of fire took place. In the village at this time, Qi Qingshan, who had just showered, was wearing shorts and chatting with his family. Suddenly heard gunshots coming from the entrance of the village, looked up reflexively, and saw two flares lighting up in the distance. Immediately realized that something was wrong, he got up and rushed into the room to get his weapon. Soon there was a bean-like gunshot. Qi Qingshan, who just got the weapon, rushed out of the house and shouted: "The chief is attacked, everyone follows me with weapons." The guard platoon responsible for defending Fang Lang has a total of 36 people. In addition to the personnel responsible for guarding Fang Lang, there are also 19 soldiers from the guard platoon who are scattered in the homes of other residents in the village to rest. The moment the gunshot sounded, everyone grabbed the weapons and equipment around them and started running out. Qi Qingshan, who was running, soon gathered around ten people. Of course, such a big movement also alarmed other people in the village. At first, everyone didn''t understand what happened. But following the actions of Qi Qingshan and others, everyone understood that someone was attacking Fang Lang. Many people in the village now work in Fangyuan Group, and as the only Chinese village in Brazil, everyone is already united. The residents of the village also picked up guys from their homes and followed. For a while, on the road out of the village, there was a sense of seeing a cloud-piercing arrow, and thousands of troops came to meet each other. The person in charge of ambushing Fang Lang had already arranged for people to block the reinforcements in the village. But the Fang Lang team discovered the abnormal situation ahead of time, which messed up the original plan. The people in charge of blocking the reinforcements are also uncertain at the moment, and don''t know what the ambush situation is like. At this moment, Fang Lang''s convoy had already retreated to a safe area. Fang Xinshan didn''t understand what happened until the gunshots rang out. Have you ever experienced this kind of battle? At this moment, your heart is jumping into your throat. After finally seeing the vehicle exiting the dangerous area, he regained his strength. He looked at Fang Lang beside him in panic and said: "Lang''er, what''s going on." Fang Lang was carefully observing the surrounding environment at this time, and saw that there was no danger along the way. Turning around and seeing the panic-stricken father, he said: "Dad! Don''t worry, someone ambushed us at the entrance of the village, but we discovered it in advance, and their plan failed." After speaking, he turned his head and glanced at the No. 1 and No. 2 cars that were not following. He turned his heart to the driver and said: "Let''s go back, we can''t leave the brothers in the front car behind." The driver shook his head and said: "Sir, your safety is the most important thing. We are the guard platoon. Our job is to ensure your safety. It is not our task to attack the enemy." (end of this chapter) Chapter 262: join the fight Chapter 262 Join the battle Fang Lang heard what the driver said and understood that he was right. But he is a soldier, and it is not his style to leave his brother and run away. "I am the officer, follow my orders. Turn around!" The driver continued to drive forward as if he hadn''t heard, looking around vigilantly. "You bastard, there is such a big commotion at the entrance of the village, the brothers in the village will definitely rush out to help. This time is the time to attack from both sides and destroy the enemy. What''s the matter with you running out with me. Turn around and go back. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, the driver hesitated. After all, Fang Lang is the officer, and obeying orders is what he should do. Seeing the other party hesitate, Fang Lang shouted: "I order you to stop." As he spoke, he took out the pistol in his arms and pointed it at the head of the dead-headed driver. Fang Xinshan saw that Fang Lang''s actions were terrified, and hurriedly stopped him: "Lang''er, what are you doing! Put down the gun." The driver was not afraid when he saw that Fang Lang had even pulled out his gun, but he also knew in his heart that Fang Lang had made up his mind, so he could only slam on the brakes and park the car in the middle of the road. The two cars that were driving ahead saw the main car stop and thought there was something wrong, but they didn''t see the main car send out a signal. had to turn around and return quickly. Fang Lang retracted his gun and pointed at the driver: "You take the old man to the police, remember to protect the safety of the old man! Then went to the St. Paul Naval Base to find Colonel Gnard Berry for help, and said that Lao Tzu had been attacked on his site. " The reason why Fang Lang dared to let the driver take the old man away alone was because he had already discovered the people who attacked him this time. Although there were a large number of people, they were obviously insufficiently trained, and it was more likely that they were gangsters. If it was a gangster, Fang Lang didn''t need to be afraid of how powerful the opponent would be. Fang Xinshan was also in a panic. Seeing that Fang Lang was about to turn his head back to the battlefield, he said in a hurry: "Langer! You can''t do stupid things!" Abandoning his father at this time, Fang Lang also felt that he was a bit of a jerk. But he is a soldier, and the situation is obviously not in desperation now. It is impossible for him to leave his brother and go away. He could only grab his father''s shoulder vigorously and said: "Dad! Don''t worry, nothing will happen to me, this is all a small scene. It is more dangerous for you to be with me, first go to the police station with the guards for help. We will be able to kill all these lifeless **** soon, don''t worry! " After speaking, I saw two cars parked on the side of the road turning around. Push the car door and go down. When closing the door, dont forget to stare at the driver, dont forget to protect the safety of the old man. The driver stood up in the driving seat and gave a military salute, and said loudly: "Please rest assured, sir, I will definitely protect the safety of the old man." The guards in the two cars that turned around and came back were startled when they saw Fang Lang get out of the car. They quickly opened the door and got out of the car, armed with guns. Fang Lang patted the window of the vehicle he was in, and motioned the driver to drive. After seeing the vehicle driving away, he turned to the remaining eight guards and said: "I am a soldier, but I don''t have the habit of leaving my brothers and running for my life. Now I command you to follow me back and rescue the brothers in cars No. 1 and No. 2, dare you! " The one who followed Fang Lang this time was actually a soldier from the security squad plus a few drivers. The security squad leader happened to be on the lead car. When the soldiers heard that the chief was going to fight back, their eyes lit up, but they hesitated immediately. Because they knew very well that their duty was to protect Fang Lang''s safety, not to rush up and fight the enemy desperately. If Fang Lang receives any damage, their mission will be considered a failure. Even if all the enemies are killed, it will not change the fact that their mission failed. However, when everyone heard Fang Lang''s order, they all felt a little cheered up, their emotions were agitated, and they wanted to kill back. Fang Lang is very familiar with the few people who follow him every day, and understands their thoughts. Knowing that it is useless to discuss with everyone, he said directly: "This is an order, you all listen carefully, we will return the same way. The gunshots behind are so intense, it means that the brothers in the village have also rushed out to engage the enemy. After we approached the enemy''s ambush site, we got out of the car to covertly meet the enemy. Block the enemy in the ambush area they set up. You don''t have to fight the enemy head-on. Just drag them in place and wait for the reinforcements to arrive. We will win. Understand? " Everyone responded in unison like a conditioned reflex: "Yes, sir!" Fang Lang opened the door of a nearby vehicle and got in. The soldiers also boarded their cars one after another, and returned to the place where they were just attacked along the same road. Fang Lang in the car looked around and asked: "Is there a long gun in the car?" A soldier turned sideways and pulled out an M1 Garand rifle from the side. Fang Lang saw that the soldiers had Thomson submachine guns in their hands, but gave himself a Garand, knowing that this was to keep him from rushing to the front . smiled, and took the long gun handed over by the other party. He took the five magazines handed over by the other party, pulled the bolt, and pressed a magazine clip into the magazine from the top of the receiver. Because the M1 Garand rifle is a semi-automatic rifle with a capacity of eight rounds, eight rounds of bullets can be fired by pulling the bolt once. There is no need to fire a shot like the Mauser 98K and pull the bolt, so the rate of fire is not slow. Stuffed all the remaining bullets into his suit pockets. But there was no suitable place to put the pistol, and I couldn''t help but feel a little annoyed, why didn''t I design one earlier, and put the pistol against the holster on the outside of my thigh. In this way, when you encounter a combat state, the gun will be within your reach. Now there are no underarm holsters, and the pistol can only be inserted in the waist holster. When wearing a military uniform, the holster on the waist is not affected, but now I wear a suit. So the action of drawing the gun is very affected. I can only insert a corner of the suit into the belt, leaving the holster outside, so that I can draw the gun at any time. Looking at the suit on his body, he couldn''t help but think of a bulletproof vest. It seems that there are still a lot of individual equipment that he can develop! If it weren''t for this emergency situation today, and I had the opportunity to experience the battle again, I probably would have forgotten these things. It seems that being a soldier still can''t stay away from the front line for too long! Otherwise, many practical tactics and equipment will be forgotten by myself sooner or later. The soldiers in the car with Fang Lang certainly didn''t know what Fang Lang was thinking. Everyone is checking their equipment one after another, ready to go to war at any time. Of course they were originally guard soldiers, and their equipment was prepared long ago, ready to go to war at any time. Unlike Fang Lang, who needs temporary preparations. Just as everyone was preparing nervously, the vehicle was slowly approaching the location where it was just attacked. In fact, the distance they left was not far, less than three kilometers, so they soon returned to the ambush point. The driver who was driving turned off the lights from a distance, felt the darkness, and drove the vehicle closer to the firefighting area ahead. Fang Lang didn''t pat the driver on the shoulder until about two hundred meters away, signaling to stop. Cars No. 1 and No. 2 in the distance parked in the middle of the road in a V shape, just blocking the entire road, obviously to avoid ambushes driving and chasing them. The door of the car opened, and Fang Lang saw eight soldiers at a glance, and two of them fell to the ground without moving. The remaining six people were still firing at the enemy under the cover of the vehicle. Seeing his brothers and six others firing back rhythmically, Fang Lang finally felt relieved. After observing carefully for a while, Fang Lang understood why there were so many enemies, but they failed to cause major damage to his own people. By using the lights of the two cars, Fang Lang could clearly see the position and number of enemies. But the soldiers in their own guard platoon hid behind the lights of the cars and used the cover of the vehicles to fight back. The other party''s line of sight was illuminated by the light, and it was basically impossible to see the position of the soldiers in the guard platoon. The entire battlefield presents a one-way transparent state, no wonder the enemy has not been able to take down their own blocking for so long. Fang Lang glanced at the battlefield environment. This place is just at the intersection of entering the village, and the enemy''s ambush position is the only way to enter and exit the village from the urban area. The vicinity has not yet entered the development state, so the ambush position chosen by the enemy is a sugarcane field, and the tall sugarcane can easily cover the ambush personnel. When the soldiers of the No. 1 and No. 2 cars set up their sniper positions, they also considered the possibility that the enemy might pass through the sugarcane field and outflank them from the flanks. So, they should have retreated while fighting, just exited the farmland area, entered the road between the two factory buildings in the urban-rural fringe area, blocked the vehicles in the middle, and blocked the road pursued by the ambushes. Seeing this, Fang Lang couldn''t help affirming the tactics of the guard platoon soldiers. No wonder the other party has been stuck at this intersection for so long and couldn''t move forward. I don''t know if the opponent''s commander is stupid or not good enough with marksmanship, but he didn''t even destroy the lights here. Could it be that the opponent has been fighting for so long and still havent understood that if the lights are not turned off, the battlefield will always be in a one-way transparent state, and they will always be passively beaten. The lion fights the rabbit with all its strength. You can''t have a fluke mentality when fighting a war. Maybe the enemy is about to get back in place at this moment. Fang Lang looked behind the blocking vehicle. There were two alleys on the left and right sides more than 30 meters away from the vehicle. Looking at the guard platoon soldiers who surrounded him to protect his safety, Fang Lang pointed to the two alleys and motioned for everyone to move forward. The soldiers understood what he meant, picked up the weapons in their hands, and moved forward lightly. But in the process of advancing, Fang Lang was always surrounded in the middle, which made Fang Lang, who was holding Garland, unable to lift up his guns, feeling very depressed. If the enemy sees this, they will know at a glance that he is an important person, and they will focus on him immediately. Fortunately, the light is dim now, and there are no street lights nearby, otherwise Fang Lang will definitely push these guys away. Everyone continued to advance towards the alley, walking, and when they passed the gate of a factory on the side of the road, Fang Lang''s heart moved, and he felt that there was something abnormal in this factory. Some sense of danger came out, but it was not strong. Fang Lang quickly put his hand on the shoulder of the soldier directly in front of him, squeezed it, the soldier understood, stopped advancing, and everyone squatted down slowly. With the help of the dim night, Fang Lang looked through the cracks in the iron gate of the factory, and found more than a dozen cars vaguely parked in the open space in the middle of the factory. Just a glance, Fang Lang understood that this should be the location where the gangsters who attacked him stored their vehicles. There was a sense of danger in it, indicating that there should be people guarding the vehicle inside. Fang Lang ordered two soldiers, and whispered a few words in their ears. The two looked at each other, nodded, walked around to the other side of the wall lightly, and climbed in without a sound. Here Fang Lang remembered a new tactical action, and that was sign language. Its a pity that I havent been trained before, so I can only solve it by whispering in a low voice. It seems that these will be incorporated into the Marine Corps training manual in the future. The next time when silent communication is needed, direct gesture communication is enough to reduce the risk of exposure. (end of this chapter) Chapter 263: surround Chapter 263 Surrounded After entering the factory area, the two fighters groped forward along the wall of the factory building. Soon, beside the wall of the factory building close to the direction of the battlefield, a figure was found looking towards the direction of the battlefield with a ladder on it. Fortunately, the abnormal situation inside was discovered in time, otherwise, Fang Lang and others would have entered the attack range of this person as long as they continued to move forward for about ten meters. If he notices Fang Lang, who is tightly protected in the middle, it only takes one shot, and the matter is over. The two fighters looked at each other, and secretly said it was a fluke. The two of them approached one from the left and the other from the right, grabbed the man''s leg and dragged it down, only to hear an "ah", the figure by the wall fell directly to the ground. A revolver that the opponent had been holding in his hand, slid out five meters away with a "bang". Two fighters took advantage of each other''s fall, controlled each other''s hands and twisted them behind their backs, crushing each other to the ground. The man couldn''t move. He wanted to scream loudly, but he felt a cold gun barrel being stuffed into his mouth. The smell of iron mixed with the smell of gun oil made him dare not move. He could only lie on the ground and let the two fighters tie him up. After the two soldiers tied it up, they groped for a while, but found no other weapons. They picked up the pistol that fell by the wall, found a piece of rags to stuff the opponent''s mouth, and dragged him to the back of a car. In the trunk, stuff it in. Searched the factory building again, and found no other abnormalities, so he opened the factory door directly and joined Fang Lang and others. Everyone had no time to waste on this little guy who was in charge of taking care of the transportation. Fang Lang glanced at the two soldiers, they nodded, and one of them said: "There''s a guy in there who looks after the vehicle, and we''ve bundled it up and stuffed it in the trunk of a car." Taking another look at the factory building where the vehicles are parked, Fang Lang found nothing unusual. He nodded and motioned everyone to move forward. Less than 30 meters ahead, there was indeed a figure shaking in the alley behind the blocking position established by No. 1 and No. 2 cars. Everyone was less than 20 meters away from the entrance of the alley at this moment, and Fang Lang could even hear the sound of footsteps coming from the alley between the noisy gunshots. Depending on the situation, there should be about ten people in each alley. The soldiers following Fang Lang had expected it, and raised their Thomson submachine guns one after another. Fang Lang waved his hand and made a gesture of throwing a grenade. Several soldiers glanced at each other, and just when Fang Lang thought that everyone was not carrying grenades, the two soldiers took out two egg-shaped grenades from their trouser pockets. Seeing that the two were about to pull the grenade ring and throw it out, Fang Lang waved his hand quickly, tapped four of them with his hand, and pointed to the opposite side of the road, signaling to move separately. The situation was urgent at this time, and no one hesitated. The four of them got up and rushed to the corner on the opposite side of the road. Both sides covered each other and continued to advance a few meters. Seeing that the enemy didn''t find them, Fang Lang stretched out three fingers and started counting down regardless of whether the other side could see them or not. As Fang Lang''s fingers cleared, the soldiers holding the grenade in the team threw the grenade that had already been unplugged into the alley near the wall on their side, shouting "Squad leader, be careful". Fang Lang noticed that someone in the opposite team also made a gesture of throwing a grenade. The sound of "Squad leader, be careful" is actually mainly to remind the soldiers on the sniper position that their own people are coming from behind, so they should avoid accidental injury. Of course the gangsters in the alley also heard the shouts. At first, their attention was all on the blocking positions in front, and they never expected that there were enemies behind them. In the dark night, preparing to attack someone, he was startled by the shouts coming from behind him. When he turned around and was about to turn his gun, a gangster felt something hit his instep and wanted to escape. , it was too late. After the two grenade explosions of "Boom" and "Boom", there was the sound of crackling Thomson submachine guns firing. Those who planned to launch a sneak attack in the alley were immediately stunned. The firepower of the Thomson submachine gun is not covered, and it can fire 720 rounds of ammunition in one minute. At such a close distance, the disoriented enemies who had just been blasted by the shock wave of the grenade, who could be opponents of professional soldiers, were quickly swept to the ground. Fang Lang just picked up the Gardland rifle and fired three shots, and he couldn''t find the standing enemy. Seeing a soldier wanting to go up to replenish his gun, Fang Lang quickly stopped him: "See if there are any survivors, we have to find out who wants to attack us." Maybe it was the gunshots from the rear that made the person directing the attack in front think that the sneak attacker had succeeded. Attacking the enemies in the sniper position head-on, a swarm of swarms rushed out of their hiding places, and the movement of the sniper position quickly became louder. Fang Lang quickly squatted in the corner, and under the cover of the wall, fired at the enemy who was clearly illuminated by the car lights. Shooting on a one-way transparent battlefield, such a mindless charge is simply a massacre. Fang Lang noticed that the enemies on the opposite side had very few long guns, and most of them were blacks and Latinos running forward regardless of their pistols. Occasionally, they saw a few white youths. Fang Lang''s first reaction when he saw these people was that these were some gangsters who had no fighting power at all. But they had already suffered such a large number of casualties, and Fang Lang found it incredible that they could still persist. The charge lasted less than two minutes before it was over. The front of the position was covered with fallen figures, some of them were completely still, and some were still screaming in pain. The soldiers in the guard platoon calmly arranged their weapons and equipment, preparing for the next wave of shock. The security squad leader who has been blocking the front already knows that Fang Lang and other guard squad soldiers have returned to the battlefield. Taking advantage of the gap in the battle, he quickly ran to Fang Lang and said: "Sir, it''s dangerous here, we''ll protect you and leave immediately." Fang Lang noticed that his left shoulder should be injured, and his clothes were covered with blood. At this moment, he was looking at himself nervously, and his eyes kept paying attention to the battlefield behind him from time to time. Smiling and patted the other party''s uninjured arm, said with a smile: "As far as these gangster gunmen are concerned, I believe that you can easily deal with each other. Besides, I am a soldier, and I have never left the habit of running away from my soldiers. " The security squad leader was also a little excited. They were already prepared to die today. Unexpectedly, the chief would return to the battlefield to support them regardless of safety, and wiped out the enemy who wanted to attack them from behind. But he is the platoon leader of the guard, he is very clear about his duty, and it is his dereliction of duty to put his officer in danger. So he continued to speak with a serious expression, but was interrupted by a more intense gunshot. Everyone quickly stretched their heads to look out, and found that it was not the enemy who launched an attack again. The gunshots came from behind the enemy instead. Several people looked at each other, knowing that it was the support from the village coming up. Judging from the intensity of the gunshots, it was obvious that it was not just the soldiers who stayed in the village who came to kill. Fang Lang looked at the security squad leader who was still standing in front of him and said: "What are you still doing in a daze? Hold the line of defense and not let the enemy run away from us." The guard squad leader stood at attention and replied loudly: "Yes, sir." Then he turned his head and returned to the original position. Fang Lang smiled, and said to the soldiers who came with him: The driver went back and got in the car. We walked around the alley where these people came, and blocked them in the sugarcane field. Dont let them run from both sides. Several people also shouted yes, and the two drivers strode towards the parking spot just now. Several other soldiers began to clean up the people who fell in the alley, and those who were not dead had already been dragged aside and tied up. Now in order to allow the vehicle to pass smoothly, they need to drag the corpse lying on the ground aside. As soon as everyone dragged the corpse on the ground aside, the lights of two cars in the distance shone over. Immediately afterwards, the gunfire that had just stopped on the sniper position rang out again. Fang Lang quickly turned his head to look, and saw a group of panicked crowd in front of the blocking position. Realizing that the enemy was surrounded by people, they fell into great chaos, and the crowd under the lights fled in all directions. The enemy who had just rushed out of the sugarcane field and entered the range of the light was shot by the soldiers in the sniper position who had been prepared. Five or six people fell down directly, and they were so frightened that they wanted to return to the sugarcane field. While the people in the sugarcane field were still rushing out in panic, the two sides collided into a ball at the edge of the sugarcane field, and the scene became even more chaotic for a while. Fang Lang, who was hiding in the dark, held a gun and looked for the leader of the crowd. It''s not that they want to kill each other, but they want to injure them. No matter what, they can''t let them run away. But the crowd was so chaotic, Fang Lang even saw some people, regardless of whether they shot at their own people standing in front of him. When he was soon pushed too. As far as the current situation is concerned, there are at least a hundred people who attacked him, but these are obviously gangster gunmen who can only fire guns, not much better than the casual marksmanship of African black buddies that Fang Lang saw on TV in later generations. But it was such a group of punks who had no combat effectiveness at all, which almost turned Fang Lang''s boat in the gutter. The lights of the car behind were getting closer and closer, Fang Lang retreated behind the wall to avoid letting the lights of the car behind reveal his position. Watching the car getting closer, Fang Lang signaled everyone to ignore themselves, and quickly walked across the alley to the side of the enemy. Everyone knows that time is urgent, and now is the time to finish making dumplings, so they stopped talking and jumped into the car to kill in the depths of the alley. Seeing the surroundings plunged into darkness again, Fang Lang turned and squatted down, returning to his original fighting position. The gunshots to drive away the enemy were getting closer, and Fang Lang knew that there was not much time left for the enemy. He bowed his back, advanced to the defensive position formed by two cars, and shouted at the enemy in the sugarcane field: "Surrender! You are surrounded. Continuing to resist in the corner can only lead to a dead end. " It may be that the gunfire was too intense, and Fang Lang''s voice didn''t make any waves at all. Hearing Fang Lang''s voice, the guard squad leader led the remaining soldiers and shouted in unison: "Put down your weapons, surrender without killing!" "Put down your weapons, surrender without killing!" As the neat shouts came out, there were also neat shouts from behind the enemy. The enemies finally collapsed. After all, they were just a group of gangsters, and it might be okay to fight with the wind. But the current situation is obviously beyond everyone''s tolerance. Soon, someone threw a weapon out of the sugarcane field, and then slowly, people walked out of the sugarcane field with their hands raised. The gunshots also slowly stopped. The soldiers in the guard platoon are all veterans who have participated in the European War. At this moment, of course everyone knows what to do. I saw the guard squad leader shouting loudly: "Those who surrender, walk out of the sugarcane field slowly with your hands up, let me see your hands, or I will shoot." I saw more and more people coming out of the sugarcane field with their hands raised, standing in front of the position full of corpses. The soldiers of the security squad still did not move until Qi Qingshan and others appeared in the sugarcane field. Everyone slowly got up and surrounded the surrendered enemy. (end of this chapter) Chapter 264: black police Chapter 264 Black Police As in most TV shows, shortly after the battle, sirens sounded in the distance. More than a dozen police cars roared up and stopped directly in front of Fang Lang. The person who got on and off the first police car was somewhat unexpected to Fang Lang, and it turned out to be Director Sebastio Hodges. The other party saw Fang Lang sitting intact in the back seat of an open car, watching his soldiers interrogating the captives. The heart that I had been carrying all this time was finally let go. He let out a long sigh of relief, stepped forward and asked: "Fang, are you okay!" Fang Lang saw that it was Director Hodges, he didn''t say much, just shook his head, and glanced at the five corpses lying on the ground not far away. These are the guard platoon soldiers who died in today''s battle. It can also be said that since Fang Lang was reborn, it was the first time that a comrade in arms died by his side. Moreover, you don''t die on the battlefield fighting the enemy, but die in the gang''s ambush. This annoyed him very much. After overcoming so many winds and waves, the boat capsized in such a gutter in the end. Although compared with the gangster who launched the attack, today''s casualty ratio reached one to ten, Fang Lang still felt aggrieved, and the anger in his heart urgently needed to be vented. He knew that Hodges could not be blamed for this incident, but Fang Lang would not be polite to gangsters who dared to attack him. The dead captives who are being tortured not far away are the obvious proof. Even if Director Hodges didn''t look at Fang Lang''s appearance, he knew what was going on today. There was an attack on an active-duty military officer in Brazil. No matter how you look at it, this matter has become a big deal. As the top person in charge of the local police station, Director Hodges cannot absolve himself of the blame, and if he fails, he will take the blame and resign. So, when he received the alarm message, he rushed over from home immediately. It''s a pity that he still couldn''t catch up with the battle in a hurry. This was a big mistake for him. If the police force can participate in the battle against the gangsters. Then it was much easier to write the report, which shows that the police also came out vigorously. But the current situation is that the enemy was wiped out by Fang Lang''s guards and the people of the Chinese village. The police can only come and clean up the mess. Director Hodges looked at the captives kneeling on the ground. If his eyes could breathe fire, he would burn these **** to death. Looking back at the policeman who followed him, he yelled loudly: "What the **** are you doing standing here, find out the identities of these **** for me, I''m going to see the full report tonight, I want to know which **** it is, who dares to lay hands on my friends on my territory. He is dead. " A group of policemen were silent for a while, and everyone knew in their hearts how serious the incident was. Although the sky is falling and there is a taller person to hold it up, but in this situation, the taller person may not be able to withstand it! Even if they can withstand it, it is estimated that before the tall ones are killed, they will kill the people below them. So, everyone was very nervous at this time, saluted together, and shouted loudly: "Yes, sir." All the police began to join in the screening of prisoners. Director Hodges looked at Fang Lang with some trepidation and said: "Fang, it''s because I didn''t do my job well. Don''t worry, I will give you a satisfactory answer." If it hadn''t been for seeing Director Hodges set up a police room at the gate of Fangyuan Group today, Fang Lang might really have troubled Hodges. Of course, even if Fang Lang didn''t trouble Hodges, Hodges wouldn''t be better off. So, Fang Lang shook his head and said: "Brother, you don''t want to consider giving me a satisfactory answer now. So many gangsters have assembled on your territory and attacked active officers, your police station has not received any news, and no one will believe you when you say it! " Hodges understood that Fang Lang was already saving face for himself. If it was someone else, they would have already pulled out their guns to hold their heads, and asked if they had arranged the action themselves. hurriedly took a step closer, and said to Fang Lang: "Fang, we are friends. I really haven''t heard any rumors about this matter. Please trust me." Fang Lang''s eyes were burning, staring at Director Hodges'' eyes, trying to see the truth of this sentence from his eyes. If you want to say that the police department is completely ignorant of this matter, don''t say that Fang Lang doesn''t believe it, probably Director Hodges himself doesn''t believe it. More than a hundred gangster gunmen gathered suddenly, and it was impossible to do it quietly. As far as the few cars Fang Lang found in the factory building, it is impossible to transport so many people here at once. This is necessarily done in batches. The police deal with these hooligans on the streets every day, and it is impossible for them to hide anything from the police. But this time the chief of police did not receive any news, the biggest possibility is that the news in the police station was intercepted. Just when Director Hodges was stared at by Fang Lang''s eyes, he felt a little uncomfortable. Fang Lang finally spoke: "Brother, these people are not professional masters, a group of ordinary punks, organizing such a big operation, it is impossible not to leak the news. If you really don''t get wind of it, it can only mean that someone in the police station is involved. " Hodges'' eyes froze after hearing Fang Lang''s words. He is not a fool. In fact, when he saw the corpses on the ground and the appearance of the captives, he could tell that they were some local gangsters. As Fang Lang said, it is indeed difficult for gangsters to organize such a large operation on their own territory without alerting the police. So, he already had some doubts in his heart. Now Fang Lang directly pierced his luck, making his face look a little ugly. If the people under him are really involved, then he, the chief officer, will be in really big trouble. While Chief Hodges was still communicating with Fang Lang, a policeman walked up to Chief Hodges quickly, ignoring the ugly faces of the two. Looking hesitant to speak, he put his hand to his mouth, wanting to whisper a few words into Hodges'' ear. Hodges raised his hand to stop: "If you find something, just say it directly, without covering it up." The policeman could only straighten his face when he saw this, he stood at attention and saluted, then said: "Sir, we found that these **** were all from the Lancers and the Lions. Our people recognized some of the leaders." Hearing the report from the police, Hodges'' face changed drastically, and he stared at the police with fixed eyes and said: "Can you say that again!" Seeing the officer''s eyes that wanted to eat people, the policeman trembled and said bravely: "Sir, it''s really the Lancers and the Lions." Fang Lang noticed Director Hodges'' face, and already had some guesses in his heart. But he didn''t make a sound, but wanted to see how Hodges was going to deal with it. At this moment, Hodges''s anger value is obviously about to explode, and his face is so gloomy that he is about to drip water. He gritted his teeth and asked the policeman: "Is their boss there?" "The boss of the Lions is dead, but the leader of the Lancers, Adair Ayala, is on his knees over there." The police pointed to a tall black man with dreadlocks not far away. Fang Lang followed the police''s gestures and saw the guy named Adair Ayala. He looks young, less than thirty years old at most, with fairly well-trimmed dreadlocks, a cotton undershirt and loose pants, like a football player. The other party has obviously been paying attention to the few people here. Seeing that everyone is looking at him, he doesn''t have any intention of avoiding it. Instead, he looks a little unconvinced. Seeing the other party''s unconvinced expression, Fang Lang laughed. Is this the legendary death without knowing it? Hodges obviously noticed the other party''s eyes, biting his molars and said to the policeman beside him: "Bring this **** to me." The police got the order and came directly behind Adair Ayala, grabbed the rope that bound the other''s hands and lifted him up. The gangster''s arm was hurting, and his back was bent straight. After the police kicked the opponent''s ass, he asked him to stand up, put a gun on the opponent''s back, and pushed the guy over. And Fang Lang frowned when he saw the police grab the rope that bound the opponent''s hands. When he saw him put the gun against the opponent''s back and push the opponent over, his heart jumped even more. Without even thinking about it, he took out the pistol that had been strapped to his waist and fired. The first shot directly hit the arm of the policeman holding the gun, and the second shot directly hit the knee of the man named Adel Ayala. Hearing the gunshot, everyone was startled. The policeman obviously didn''t expect that Fang Lang would shoot without hesitation, but the moment he was shot in the shoulder, his hand muscles still pulled the trigger reflexively. Because of being shot in the shoulder, the muzzle of the gun has drooped, and the bullet penetrated the thigh of the gang leader named Adair Ayala and shot into the mud. The police haven''t figured out what''s going on yet. The two guards who were on the sidelines rushed forward and pinned the two of them to the ground. This sudden change made Director Hodges pale, and his short and fat body began to shake involuntarily. If Fang Lang shot, he still didn''t understand why. If he didn''t understand what was going on when the gun went off in the policeman''s hand, he wouldn''t have to do it for the police chief. But it was precisely because he understood what was going on that his face became even uglier. Beads of sweat began to appear on Hodges'' face. He knew that he was in serious trouble. Now that the policemen in his own police station had participated in Fang Lang''s assassination, he, the police chief, had finally come to an end. When the two guards threw down the policeman and the gang leader, the soldiers in the guard platoon raised their guns one after another and pointed their guns at the policeman. The atmosphere became tense for a while, and the police were also nervous and wanted to draw their guns. Fortunately, Hodges reacted and shouted: "All cops, put your guns away. There are enemies and accomplices among our people, watch out for the people around you, if anyone wants to draw a gun, I will throw him down. " Now, the faces of the policemen became ugly. After Director Hodges'' words, everyone wanted to understand what was going on. Everyone looked at the policeman who was thrown to the ground with anger. This guy stepped on the faces of all the policemen on the ground and rubbed them. Fang Lang looked around at everyone present, raised his hand and said: "It''s okay, everyone put away your guns, there shouldn''t be so many scum in our police force." Director Hodges was also relieved when he heard Fang Lang''s words. Now he doesn''t know if there are any hidden dangers in his team. The surrounding guards slowly put down their guns, but looked at the police with vigilance. This made the police present uncomfortable, but they couldn''t blame each other. After all, this is because of problems within his own team. (end of this chapter) Chapter 265: to interrogate Chapter 265 Interrogation Director Hodges saw that although the atmosphere was a little tense, it gradually calmed down. Looked at Fang Lang, who had always been very calm, and said: "Fang, how did you find out that there is something wrong with this bastard? This **** has been with me for five or six years, and I never thought that this guy would have problems. " Once again, he carefully looked up and down the most powerful police chief in Sao Paulo, Sebastio Hodges. Fang Lang didn''t feel any hostility from the other party. Obviously, what happened this time should have little to do with him. Fang Lang smiled, put the pistol in his hand back into the holster, looked at Director Hodges playfully and said: "The Long Gun Gang and the Lion Gang were supported by you, right?" Director Hodges'' face darkened again when he heard Fang Lang''s words, and nodded helplessly: "We are brothers, and I won''t hide it from you. These two gangs do give me some benefits on a regular basis, and I will also give them some small care. But I never expected that they would attack you. Believe me, I didn''t know the whole thing. " Fang Lang nodded and said: "With the relationship between our brothers, I naturally believe in you. But when this Mr. Policeman went to take this Adair Ayala, he had many ways to make him stand up. But he just grabbed the rope that bound the opponent''s hands. Why is this? Could it be that he deliberately wanted to untie this rope? What''s even more strange is that this police officer obviously only needs to push this Mr. Adair Ayala, so he can come over, but he drew his gun and put it on Mr. Adair Ayala''s back. The direction of the muzzle passed through this gentleman and was aimed at me. And I hate being pointed at with a gun the most, even if it''s pointed at someone else. " After hearing Fang Lang''s answer, Hodges didn''t know how to evaluate it for a while, and it took a long time before he reluctantly raised a thumb and said to Fang Lang: "Brother, I have to say that your observation skills are too keen." Fang Lang shook his head with a smile, thinking, may I tell you this is all because of intuition? "Since these people are related to you, I think you are in trouble now, dude. I think maybe it''s all a conspiracy. " Fang Lang''s words made Hodges sigh a little decadently, trying to find a place to sit down, but found that there was no place to sit down at all. As the chief of police, it is definitely not appropriate to sit directly on the ground. After looking around, Hodges looked at the car Fang Lang was sitting in, and signaled that he wanted to find a place to sit down. Fang Lang smiled, pointed to the passenger seat of his vehicle, and motioned for him to sit down. Hodges was also polite, opened the car door, and sat directly on it. The two sat in a car parked on the side of the road, one after the other, watching the soldiers and policemen in the guard platoon busy. Fang Lang took out two cigars from his body and handed one to Hodges. Hodges took it without refusing, and watched Fang Lang trim the cigars with cigar cutters through the gap in the car door. "Do you think it''s Japanese?" Hodges said hesitantly. After saying this sentence, he seemed to think of something and said: "The Long Spear Gang and the Lion Gang, I came to fill the gap left by the Black Dragon Society after we wiped out the Japanese Black Dragon Society last time. It seems that the only ones who want to use conspiracy to put us all in are the Japanese. " Fang Lang glanced at Hodges, and did not answer Hodges'' question immediately, but continued to concentrate on trimming the cigar in his hand. After trimming, I picked it up and looked at it. I was finally satisfied, and then handed the cigar cutters to Hodges. After Hodges took over the cigar cutter, Fang Lang wanted to take out his matches from his pocket, but he only found a pocket full of bullets from the M1 Garand rifle. Reluctantly, he took out all the bullets in his pocket and threw them on the car seat cushion. Still couldn''t find his match, which made Fang Lang a little annoyed. Hodges smiled when he saw this, put down the cigar and cigar cutter in his hand, took out a box of matches from his pocket, lit one, and handed the fire to Fang Lang''s mouth. Fang Lang stretched his head over to light the cigar, took a big puff, and opened his mouth to spit out an eye circle. turned around and asked: "Hasn''t the Japanese in Sao Paulo cleaned up?" Hodges smiled wryly and shook his head: "That was so easy, most of the Japanese have been forcibly repatriated. But some Japanese have formed families with other Brazilians, and some even have powerful families in Brazil. We also have no way to force repatriation directly. " Fang Lang had expected this for a long time. It would be impossible to directly exterminate the Japanese in Brazil, unless there was a virus specifically targeting the Japanese genes. Fang Lang remembered the attack he encountered in New York, nodded and said: "There is a possibility. But, which officer just now? Didn''t you say that he has been with you for many years? " Hodges held an unlit cigar, raised his head and pondered for a while before saying: "Yes! I promoted this guy from an ordinary police officer. At the beginning, I saw him as a rare college student. I originally wanted him to stay in the office and help me with documents and reports. I didn''t expect this guy, but he was very active later on, often applying to join front-line police activities. Slowly, he also showed some ability, so he was later promoted to sheriff, and let him be in charge of some small public security cases. Didn''t expect this guy to do such a thing. " Fang Lang looked at Hodges next to him with strange eyes. Is this guy bad character, or does he not know people well? If I remember correctly, the last time I launched an operation against the Japanese, it was this guy''s secretary who reported the letter to the Japanese, causing heavy losses to the police! Now it''s this guy''s promoted sheriff again, trying to assassinate himself. "Then, does this guy usually have a close relationship with these two gangs?" Hodges nodded and said: "Of course, this guy is in charge of security operations, and people from these two gangs will often deal with him. Sometimes, when the two gangs have something to deal with, I also ask him to deal with it. " There is too little information now. Although it can be seen that there is a connection between this guy and the two gangs, there is no way to determine the exact relationship. Fang Lang shook his head and said: "It''s useless to think too much now, we have to investigate slowly. Fortunately, these two guys were captured alive by us, and we can interrogate them slowly. " After speaking, he looked at the black boy who was hit by the policeman in the thigh after being hit by himself in the knee. Seeing the other party twitching unconsciously from the pain on the ground, and wanting to pretend to be a tough guy, he tried his best not to let himself yell out. Smiling, he signaled his guards to drag him to the front of his vehicle. Turned his head and glanced at Hodges beside him: "Will you interrogate your people by yourself or hand them over to me for interrogation." At this time, Hodges didn''t know whether he was disheartened, or to avoid suspicion, he waved his hands weakly and said: "Since I want to ignore you, of course I will hand it over to you for trial." Fang Lang took a serious look at Hodges, saw that the other party didn''t seem to be joking, and nodded in satisfaction. Normally speaking, this kind of matter must be handed over to the local police station for investigation and interrogation. After all, Fang Lang, as a navy, does not have the right to interrogate prisoners. But now that Hodges has no objection, of course Fang Lang will not be polite. Fang Lang will not have any compassion for guys who want their own lives. Looked up and down carefully for a while, this black guy with beads of sweat the size of soybean grains was hanging on his forehead. At this moment, I can''t see the appearance of the previous star at all. Because the kneecap of the left leg was shot by Fang Lang, and the thigh of the right leg was shot again, making it impossible to stand at all. In addition, the guard replaced the rope binding his hands with handcuffs. Therefore, after receiving Fang Lang''s order, the guard directly grabbed the other party''s dreadlocks and dragged the other party directly in front of Fang Lang. Seeing this black buddy who was struggling to make no sound, Fang Lang smiled. got out of the car, and said to the guard who was dragging him: "We need to be more civilized, this is not a German devil on the European battlefield, this is our compatriots, right! This boss." The leader of the Pike Gang named Adair Ayala raised his eyes and glanced at Fang Lang with a sincere smile on his face, and spat at Fang Lang with disdain. The saliva lying on the ground was of course not high enough, and it just landed on Fang Lang''s leather shoes. Fang Lang looked down at the saliva on the leather shoes, and said with a smile: "Look, look, you are wrong, how can you spit anywhere? So uncivilized. I''ll wipe it off with your hair, you''d love it! " After finishing speaking, he wiped the drool on his leather shoes on the opponent''s hair. This guy''s hands were bound, his legs were injured, and he couldn''t get up at all. He could only avoid Fang Lang''s movements by constantly shaking his head. Fang Lang laughed loudly and said: "By the way, that''s right! Shake your head a few more times and you can wipe it clean." It seemed that the other party was deliberately shaking his head to wipe the drool off his shoes. Adel Ayala finally couldn''t bear it and began to curse. Fang Lang heard the other party''s scolding, looked at him without changing his face and said: "So you can''t help but want to speak? I thought you''d have to keep silent! Don''t worry, I hope your spirit will always be so good today. " After finishing speaking, he picked up a sharp-looking stone from the ground, and said to Adair Ayala on the ground: "Both of your legs look badly injured, let me check them for you. But I don''t have scissors handy right now, I may need to use this to cut your pants to see the wound, this process may be a bit painful, I hope you don''t mind. " Fang Lang gestured to the guard, and two people stepped forward and pressed him firmly to the ground. Fang Lang walked to the opponent''s right thigh wound and squatted down, taking a look at the **** trousers. As if talking to himself: "Hmm! Luckily, the aorta was not injured. Hold up a little and I''ll check the wound for you. " After finishing speaking, he cut the sharp stone towards his wound, but as soon as it touched the wound, Adair Ayala couldn''t help crying loudly. But Fang Lang didn''t seem to realize it, and continued to cut back and forth on the opponent''s trousers repeatedly with sharp stones regardless. It is said that it is cutting the other party''s trousers, but no matter who looks at it, it seems to be dismembering the other party''s leg. Adel Ayala was just a gangster after all, so he suffered like this. The image of a tough guy who had been pretending to be strong collapsed in an instant, and he began to beg for mercy loudly: "Ah!. Don''t cut it, I beg you. What do you want to know, just ask! " Fang Lang said with an innocent face: "Don''t! You misunderstood me, I just checked your wounds, I didn''t want to know anything from you! Don''t worry, your pants are not thick, you can cut them open and see the wound soon. " Adair Ayala cursed in his heart! Do I need you to check the wound for me? If you cut it further, I dont know if the pants will be torn, but there will definitely be a long wound on the thigh. This is a blunt knife cutting flesh! But Adair Ayala no longer dared to scold Fang Lang, because he felt that this guy was a lunatic. (end of this chapter) Chapter 266: Black pot Chapter 266 Black pot Fang Lang seemed to really not want to ask Adair Ayala any questions, and continued to cut his trouser legs with sharp stones. But every time he cut it, Adair Ayala could not help crying out in pain. The situation here has long attracted the attention of everyone around. Fang Lang had a cigar in his mouth, his eyes were slightly narrowed by the smoke from the cigar, his mouth looked crooked because of the cigar biting, and his hands were too rough. Maybe the skinning master in the slaughterhouse looks like this! Director Hodges felt chills when he looked at Fang Lang. Soon, Fang Lang really cut open the trousers with a stone, and then used a stone to push aside the torn trousers, and looked at the wound on Adair Ayala''s leg. "It looks like the bullet went in. Need me to help you get the bullet out now? " Adair Ayala is obviously not a real tough guy. After hearing Fang Lang''s words at this moment, he seemed to hear the whisper of a demon, and his whole body began to tremble involuntarily, his face turned pale, and there was a faint urge to urinate in his crotch. The mouth kept begging: "Sir, I was wrong. I dare not again. I quit, can I give you all my territory? " Hearing Adair Ayala''s words, Fang Lang shook his head and said: "It seems that you want me to take out the bullet here, so you have to hold back! There is no anesthetic here, it may hurt a little." After speaking, the sharp stone hit the wound again. Before Fang Lang could continue cutting, Adair Ayala had already called out loudly: "Ah! Mr. Hodges, help! I followed your orders! Please, help me! Get this devil away from me. " Adair Ayala''s words made Director Hodges turn pale and tremble all over. What do you mean this is to frame him. Quickly looked at Fang Lang, wanting to explain a few words. It turned out that Fang Lang didn''t look at himself, but directly started cutting Adair Ayala''s wound with a sharp stone. Mouth also said: "Don''t you know that Hodges and I are brothers? This kind of sowing discord can''t hurt our feelings. " At this time, Adair Ayala couldn''t care about Hodges'' feelings at all, and said directly: "It''s true, sir! I beg you, let me go! I''m not kidding. I received a call to tell us to ambush here with the Lions, and all the goods we got were ours. " Fang Lang stopped what he was doing, looked at Adair Ayala in doubt and said: "Goods? What kind of goods?" Seeing Fang Lang finally stop what he was doing, Adair Ayala took a few short breaths, and finally pulled back the heart that had jumped into his throat. Looking nervously at Fang Lang, he said: "Flour! Didn''t someone say that someone wants to bring in a hundred kilograms of flour?" Fang Lang stared at Adair Ayala intently, trying to see from his face whether what he said was true or false. But after watching for a long time, Fang Lang didn''t see a lying expression on his face. He looked back at Hodges, and saw that he also had a ghostly expression at the moment. The hesitation to speak made him understand that Hodges also had a lot of questions to ask first. But obviously worried about being misunderstood by Fang Lang, so he resisted not speaking. Seeing Fang Lang looking at him, Hodges let out a smile uglier than bitter, and shook his head helplessly at Fang Lang. Fang Lang understood what the other party meant. Didn''t say much, he already sensed that this attack might be a deliberate setup by the black hands behind the scenes. It may be difficult to directly find out who is behind the scenes. Because, now it is obvious that all the unfavorable evidence points to Hodges. No matter who is asked to investigate, this matter must have something to do with Hodges. And these gang members are obviously a group of gunmen who have been used, and they are still in a state of confusion. "You said that Mr. Hodges notified you, so can you tell me how Mr. Hodges notified you?" Fang Lang already had a guess in his mind when he asked this sentence, but he had to confirm whether his guess was correct. Adel Ayala said directly without hesitation: "Walaway Geller is the one who called me! It turns out that Mr. Hodges often asks Worawy Geller to notify us of anything!" "Who is Wallaway Geller? Is he there?" "It''s the policeman you knocked down just now!" Fang Lang looked at the sheriff who was shot in the shoulder and was being guarded by the soldiers. looked again at Chief Hodges, who was staring at the sheriff, about to spew fire. Knowing that all the answers need to be answered by this Worawee Geller, but he was not in a hurry, but continued to ask Adair Ayala: "Do you know who I am?" At this time, Adair Ayala seemed to understand that something was wrong. He saw Director Hodges looking at Worawee Geller with an angry face, and then at Fang Lang who was squatting in front of him, and said with some hesitation: "Aren''t you a fan transporter?" Fang Lang didn''t answer his question, but continued to ask: "Are you in command of the scene of your ambush?" Adair Ayala heard Fang Lang''s question, he hesitated and said: "No no. It''s not me, it''s a middle-aged white guy, I don''t know his name. When we rushed to the front factory to assemble as required, the white man was already waiting for us there. Our actions here are all in accordance with his command. " "Where are his people?" "Dead, he wants to force us to continue to die, but the brothers are not willing. Just" Fang Lang squinted at the other party and understood what the other party meant. "When did you die?" "Before the surrender, he died, and we surrendered. died in the sugarcane field in front of him, a middle-aged white man with a big beard. " Looking at Adair Ayala, who had learned to answer quickly, Fang Lang nodded. He turned his head and glanced at Qi Qingshan beside him. Qi Qingshan understood Fang Lang''s meaning, turned around and arranged for two guard platoon soldiers to go to the sugarcane field to find the body of the person Adel Ayala said. "Then how long have you been lying in ambush in the sugarcane field?" "It''s not long, we arrived at the factory around four o''clock in the afternoon. Around seven or eight oclock, a call came into the factory. After listening to the call, the **** said that the goods were on the way, and told us to enter the sugarcane field to ambush according to the plan. " As soon as Fang Lang heard this time, Fang Lang understood that this was when he and his father came out of Fangyuan Group. It seemed that someone was watching him near the company at that time! I didn''t find out by myself. Could it be that my sixth sense is not working? But thinking about the situation at that time, it should be my attention that was attracted by the police duty box. I secretly regretted in my heart. "Then why, your actions have already failed, and you still want to attack us desperately?" This is a very abnormal place. After all, if it is really to **** flour, since the operation failed, they should find a way to retreat. Instead of desperately continuing to attack your own guards. "It happened so suddenly at that time, you didn''t enter our ambush circle at all, and you got into the fire in a daze. I lay in ambush in the middle area, and when I realized that there was fire from behind, I hurried over to help. I always thought there were only these two cars! So, I never thought about retreating! " Fang Lang couldn''t help shaking his head. If he really thought what this guy said, it was really possible. He found that there were only two trucks transporting flour. With so many people on his side, how could he give up easily? "Don''t you know how many cars and how many people are coming?" Adel Ayala shook his head and said: "That guy didn''t tell us!" Hearing what this guy said, Fang Lang felt that this was a mallet, and he had no brains at all. The so-called commander is also a no-brainer. I dont know if its because of confidentiality or some other reason. He doesnt even tell others about the target to be attacked. "Then isn''t he with you?" "Ambush at the back is the Lion Gang, they are responsible for blocking your retreat. That **** is in charge of intercepting you in front and blocking reinforcements from the village. I am responsible for grabbing flour in the middle. Our division of labor is different, which has been discussed long ago. The first people to exchange fire with you are the Lions. Sir, please believe me, our Long Gun Gang has definitely not caused any harm to your people. " Fang Lang laughed angrily at this guy, meaning he didn''t want to be responsible if he didn''t cause any harm. Wanting to kick this guy twice, he saw two guards dragging a very strong bearded corpse over. Just by taking a look, Fang Lang felt that this guy was not a good person. No need for Fang Lang to ask Adel Ayala has already taken the initiative to say: "That''s right, it''s this guy. He is responsible for meeting us at the factory and then making plans. " This is Hodges finally getting out of the car and walking over. After carefully looking at this guy for a while, he said: "I seem to have seen this guy somewhere, let me think about it." Fang Lang thought that he could only get more clues by interrogating the sheriff of Wollaway Geller, but he didn''t expect Chief Hodges to tell him that he had seen this man. This was a pleasant surprise. "It''s okay, just think about it slowly, I''m not in a hurry." After speaking, he turned his head and said to Qi Qingshan: "Please come here, Mr. Sheriff." The sheriff named Wallaway Geller was only shot in the shoulder, the injury was not serious, and he was able to stand and walk normally. When being escorted by two guards, this guy''s face was a little pale, and his eyes were a little depressed. I don''t know if he was still regretting his failure. When he was about two meters away from Fang Lang, the guard asked him to stop, and then kicked him in the crook of his leg. This guy couldn''t stand still, so he knelt down. But this guy looked very tough, and wanted to stand up again. Under the pressure of the two guards, he desperately tried to break free. But the guard would not let him get what he wanted, he pinched the gunshot wound on his shoulder, and Worawee Geller groaned in pain, and fell to the ground directly. A guard stepped forward and put his knee on his neck, turning his head to the side to prevent him from being choked by the dirt on the ground. But the full body weight of the guard was on his neck, which must have made him very uncomfortable. Soon his complexion began to turn red, and his breathing became more and more rapid. Fang Lang looked at him for a while before waving his hand to signal the guard to let go of his legs. Wolawe Geller thought he was a fish short of water. He opened his mouth wide and breathed desperately. It took a long time for his face to return to normal. The whole person lay on the ground, no longer resisting. Fang Lang smiled and said: "Why bother? You know who I am, and you also understand the identities of these people around me. Do you think you can make it through? " Wolawe Geller didn''t make a sound, his eyes were closed tightly, and he looked deathly at home. (end of this chapter) Chapter 267: ending Chapter 267 Ending Fang Lang looked at the silent Wolawi Geller on the ground, and felt a little strange in his heart. Who would want his own life in Brazil? Judging from the current situation, you may not necessarily say that these guys are very capable. Because if it is really powerful, there is no need to use gangsters to perform such tasks. Of course, it is also possible to hide your background. But to hide the background, you should also arrange a few real masters to sneak in and help you! If you want to say that the other party has no strength, but you can make a police insider like Wallaway Geller fight against him even if you don''t want his future. Moreover, Fang Lang still looked deathly at home, which really confused Fang Lang. Looking at the police uniform on the opponent, Fang Lang thought for a while, but still didn''t directly torture him in public to extract a confession. After all, there are many policemen around. If I punish a person wearing a police uniform in front of so many policemen, it will have a very bad influence on the hearts of these policemen. Sao Paulo is my hometown after all, and my family will definitely live here all the time, because such things offend the entire police system, and the gain outweighs the gain. Glancing at Hodges, he found that this guy was still thinking hard about the bearded man on the ground. Obviously, even if Hodges had seen this guy, it shouldn''t have been a long time ago, or by chance, otherwise Hodges wouldn''t have thought about it for so long. When Chang Fanglang wanted to wake Hodges up, another string of lights came from far and near in the distance. The guards raised their weapons one after another. Qi Qingshan directly assigned several people to investigate and confirm the identity of the other party. If this is the enemy, it is estimated that today will be sad. But Fang Lang had a hunch that this should be the reinforcements brought by Colonel Gnard Berry from the Sao Paulo Naval Base. Sure enough, the scouting fighters quickly confirmed the news. Then a large group of soldiers in navy uniforms rushed over with weapons in their hands, and surrounded the scene with water. Colonel Gnard Berry obviously saw Fang Lang from a distance. "Fang, I''m late, are you okay!" Fang Lang shook his head with a smile, and wiped the blood from his hands on the black guy on the ground. Seeing that it couldn''t be wiped off, I could only spread my hands and gave up the plan to shake hands with the other party. The naval base is not close to this side. Fang Lang must accept that the other party can bring a large number of people to support so quickly. "You''re so fast, it''s too late for me to thank you! Do not worry! I''m fine, but five guards were killed. " Colonel Gnard Berry saw Fang Lang''s movements, and didn''t say much. He looked Fang Lang up and down a few times, and he was relieved after making sure that Fang Lang was fine. He took the initiative to open his arms and hugged Fang Lang before saying: "It''s good that people are fine, have these gangsters eaten the gall of a male leopard? Dare to attack our naval officers in Sao Paulo, this is not taking Lao Tzu seriously. Don''t worry, this matter cannot be finished today. I must hang these **** on the street lamp. " Fang Lang wanted to pat the opponent''s back, but thinking of the blood on his hands, he could only tighten his arms and said: "Thank you very much for coming to support yourself. Let the police investigate the follow-up matters! I believe they dare not mess around with this matter. " Colonel Gnard Berry heard what Fang Lang said, and understood what Fang Lang meant. This kind of investigation is really not suitable for him, the commander of the naval base, to come forward. However, he still pondered for a while and then whispered: "We can''t fully trust the local police for this kind of thing. The Ministry of the Navy can entrust the Intelligence Bureau to investigate this matter. With the serious nature of this matter, the Intelligence Bureau will definitely get involved. The impact of an attack on a serving naval officer is simply too bad. If the Intelligence Agency cannot give an accurate investigation result, I think the Ministry of National Defense will not accept it. " Hearing what Colonel Gnard Berry said, Fang Lang nodded, and he also knew that this matter could not be passed easily. So he''s in no rush. Even if the black hand behind the scenes, no matter how powerful the cover-up method is, it is impossible not to leave any clues. Of course, if someone dares to come forward to suppress this matter, Fang Lang is also very happy to see it, because this can just help him lock the enemy. "I understand, thank you very much for coming here in person today." "What are you talking about! This kind of thing should be supported by me, you don''t think I''m late. By the way, your father is still behind, and he must be freaking out today. You should settle down with your family first. Let the matter here be finished by the police. Rest well tonight. Let''s talk about something tomorrow. " Fang Lang saw his father returning with Colonel Gnard Berry, looking at him worriedly. Originally wanted to stay here and ask Mr. Sheriff a few questions. But looking at the scene like the Shura Field, he could only shake his head helplessly. His father might have nightmares if he saw the dead bodies all over the ground. So, Fang Lang chose to accept Colonel Gnard Berry''s suggestion. "I understand, thank you for your hard work tonight." Colonel Gnard Berry stepped forward and put his arm around Fang Lang''s shoulder and patted: "What do you say, you go to rest first, I will understand the situation on the scene and report to the Ministry of the Navy. I will come to your house to see you tomorrow morning. " Fang Lang nodded, asked Qi Qingshan to explain a few words in a low voice, stepped forward and patted Hodges on the shoulder and said: "Man, to be honest, I believe in you. However, the current situation is obviously not good for you. I think you''d better find a way to solve the case as soon as possible! Otherwise, this scapegoat will probably fall on your head. " Hodges is also very clear about his situation at this moment. He understands that this is a game set up by others, and he is the scapegoat set by others. At this time, it is very rare for Fang Lang to still believe in himself. He couldn''t have asked for more. To be honest, if he didn''t know that he didn''t do it. Judging from the existing evidence and the situation of the people who launched the attack, he himself doubts that he gave the order. Nodding his head, Hodges said in a dejected way: "Fang, thank you for always trusting me, this time I feel very bad. Maybe tomorrow I will be removed from my post for investigation and lose the right to investigate this case. If, I am really dismissed and investigated, I will not be able to clear up the suspicion on me. Damn it, this is a knot, and I can''t avoid it at all. " Fang Lang saw Hodges'' expression, thought for a while and said: "Maybe you should think about who in the police station has a grudge against you, or if you fall, who will be the biggest beneficiary." Hodges looked at Fang Lang in surprise, and said with an unbelievable expression: "Fang, do you mean that this is a game my enemy deliberately set up against me?" Shaking his head, Fang Lang patted the other party''s shoulder and said: "I''m just giving you an idea, their main purpose must be to kill me. But if you can get rid of it by the way, there is nothing wrong with it, right? To be able to place such a **** by your side must be someone who knows you well! Maybe you can think about who introduced the Long Gun Gang and the Lion Gang to you? " Fang Lang''s words made Hodges fall into contemplation. He should be the most stressed person on the scene now. Because the incident had already happened, Fang Lang survived. It can be said that it is basically out of danger. All that remains is to find the murderer and hold him accountable, and the pressure naturally shifts to Director Hodges, who is the most suspected. Looking at Hodges who was still thinking, Fang Lang didn''t say much. Just as he was about to take his father home, his eyes glanced at Sergeant Wolawi Geller lying on the ground, and his heart moved slightly. He lowered his head and whispered in Chief Hodges'' ear: "If my predictions are correct, someone should be silenced tonight. Maybe you can see if you can find something." At first Hodges didn''t understand what Fang Lang meant, but when he followed Fang Lang''s gaze and saw Sheriff Wollaway Geller lying on the ground, he had a faint realization in his heart. Fang Lang saw that the other party had realized something, so he didn''t say any more. He just smiled and nodded at Hodges, then turned and came to his vehicle. Fang Xinshan finally let out a long sigh of relief when he saw his son standing in front of him intact. Fang Lang opened the door, got in the car from behind, patted the driver on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Good job." The driver smiled forcedly at the corner of his mouth, he hesitated to speak. Fang Lang understood what he meant, and smiled before the other party opened his mouth: "Okay, I''m sorry, I will listen to you next time." The driver looked back at Fang Lang, his eyes were a little moved. "Dad, do you still feel safe now?" Fang Lang turned his head to look at Fang Xinshan who was sitting on the side, thinking that maybe this experience wasn''t necessarily a bad thing. After Fang Xinshan heard Fang Lang''s words, his face was a little ugly and he said: "Langer, are you so dangerous every day?" Fang Lang understood that his father was worried about his safety, so he smiled and said: "How is it possible, this is the first attack I have encountered? I didnt expect to encounter a dangerous situation that I have never encountered on the battlefield, but I encountered it at the door of my house. Dont you think its strange. " Fang Xinshan obviously wouldn''t believe Fang Lang''s words, but he didn''t expose it, but fell into silence. I also understood in my heart that my son''s journey must be very difficult. The reason why the Fang family can achieve what they are now is because of their son''s life. Fang Lang saw that his father didn''t speak, so he didn''t say any more, leaning on the back seat and lost in thought. I still don''t quite understand, who in Brazil would want to kill themselves? The vehicle staggered into the village, and the whole village did not sleep. Most of the elderly, women and children were waiting for their men to come home at their door. Along the way, Fang Lang took the initiative to explain to everyone that no one was injured, and thank you for your help. Of course, these are not enough. Tomorrow, we will arrange people to express our thanks to everyone. When they returned to their door, mother and grandfather were standing outside the door waiting for Fang Lang and others to go home. Seeing that his brother was not there, Fang Lang asked quickly: "Where''s Tao''er?" Mother pointed to the village entrance and said: "I fired a shotgun from home, and went to the entrance of the village with the big guys to help, didn''t you see it?" Fang Lang had heard Qi Qingshan''s report, and knew that the soldiers from the guard platoon rushed to the front, and no one in the village was injured. also felt relieved and said: "Oh! That''s okay, it''s over. Everyone in the village is fine and should be back soon. " Also saw Fang Lang''s hands covered in blood, frowned and said: "Did you do it yourself?" Fang Lang looked at his hands, nodded and said: "I did this to help treat the wounded. Don''t worry! I''m fine." As for whether grandpa believed it or not, Fang Lang didn''t care. Such a serious attack happened at the entrance of the village, and the family members were so worried that they could not sleep. Fang Lang didn''t want his family members to worry too much, and he didn''t want to reveal what happened to everyone, so he said early that he was sleepy, and went straight back to the room. (end of this chapter) Chapter 268: Follow up Chapter 268 follow-up There was nothing to say all night, and when Fang Lang had just finished breakfast the next morning, Qi Qingshan knocked on Fang Lang''s door with the two of them. "Sir, this is Captain Archido Martel, head of the Sao Paulo Station of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, and this is Mr. Hakan Morano, a senior investigator of the Brazilian Police Headquarters. Last night''s case is now under their charge. " Fang Lang, while drinking the porridge cooked by his mother himself, nodded to the two, motioning for them to sit down. In Brazil at this stage, the concept of class is still deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. As a naval captain, Fang Lang needs to properly demonstrate his status. Therefore, it is necessary to maintain a certain sense of distance from unfamiliar low-level officers. Seeing Fang Lang eating breakfast, the two of them knew that the timing of their arrival was not right, so they could only stand at attention and salute, and said in unison: "Good morning, sir!" Fang Lang didn''t intend to invite the two to sit down, so he nodded flatly and said: "Good morning, did things work out?" These words made the faces of the two of them a little embarrassed. The incident had just passed one night. With the strength of the Brazilian police, there was no way to investigate any useful results so quickly. "Sorry sir, we just took over the investigation this morning. From what I understand, things might be a little complicated. We came here today mainly because we hope you will allow us to ask your guards about the specific situation at that time. " Captain Archido Martell of the Intelligence Bureau took the initiative to speak. Fang Lang knew very well in his heart that the fierce **** was hidden very deeply this time, so he had expected it. Turning his attention to the police senior investigator Hakan Morano said: "Where''s Director Hodges?" Hakan Morano helped his eyes on the bridge of his nose and said: "Colonel Fang, Mr. Director Hodges has been temporarily detained because he is too involved in this case and has been listed as a key suspect." Fang Lang shrugged noncommittally, turned his head and nodded at Qi Qingshan and said: "Take them!" The two nodded politely to Fang Lang, then turned and left, and went to the soldiers in the guard platoon to learn what happened at that time. Seeing the backs of the two leaving, Fang Lang shook his head. Sure enough, as Fang Lang expected, Director Hodges has now become the biggest suspect. But Fang Lang knew very well in his heart that Hodges would never have done it, because the chain of evidence in the case was too clear, as if it was on the table for you to see through at a glance. But Fang Lang couldn''t think of Hodges'' motives. His relationship with Hodges was not particularly close, but it was definitely not bad. Hodges''s brain was flooded, so people would do it to him. Moreover, they all used their own hands without any concealment. Actually, the attack plan this time was not badly designed, if it weren''t for Fang Lang''s intuition, he discovered the danger in time. If the convoy was really attacked suddenly, Fang Lang should be cold by now. Once things really happen, Director Hodges is also a scapegoat, because everything is done in his name. After Director Hodges comes to justice, the case will be perfectly closed. And no one found the shadow of the mastermind behind the scenes. But now something unexpected happened, the ambush failed and he was caught instead, don''t worry about the mastermind behind the scenes, the only loophole now is Mr. Sheriff. As for whether the sheriff really knew the mastermind behind the scenes, Fang Lang felt that the possibility was unlikely. After all, with the cautious and cautious style of this force, Fang Lang would not believe it if he could be tracked down so easily. Just as Fang Lang continued to bury his head in eating two mouthfuls of porridge, there was a sudden sound of brakes outside the door, followed by Fang Xinshui''s loud voice. "Lang''er, get up!" Fang Lang smiled and looked up towards the door, and sure enough, he saw the guard open the door, and Fang Xinshui rushed in. "Uncle, have you had breakfast?" Fang Xinshui waved his hand and said: "I''m not in the mood to have breakfast. I received the news last night and was almost scared to death. Fortunately, I was not in any danger. ran over to see you, but you fell asleep. Turning around, I took my brothers and swept the place of the Long Gun Gang and the Lion Gang. And the house of the sheriff named Wallaway Geller, we went too. It''s a pity that there is no one in the family, so I can only smash his house again. " Hearing Fang Xinshui''s words, Fang Lang frowned, and asked in a deep voice: "Smash it again?" Fang Xinshui saw Fang Lang''s expression, waved his hands helplessly and said: "Originally, I wanted to seek bad luck from that fat man Hodges, but Qingshan told me that you suspected that Hodges was framed by someone, and told me not to act rashly. I just wanted to go to Wallaway Geller''s house and smash his house. It turned out that someone was one step ahead of us. This guy''s house has been searched in a mess. " Putting down the spoon for drinking porridge, Fang Lang lowered his head and pondered for a while and asked: "Uncle, do you know this Sheriff Worawee Geller? Do you know who is in his family? " Fang Xinshui pulled out a chair from the dining table, sat on it bravely and said: It turned out that after a brother was arrested, he had dealings with him several times. This guy looks gentle and gentle, but he is actually a ruthless and ruthless character. But as far as I know, this guy is one of the few non-greedy guys in the police station. As for his family, we really don''t know much about it. " "Then you just said that his home was searched, do you think it was caused by his family members leaving in a hurry to pack their things?" Fang Xinshui directly waved his hands and said: "Impossible, absolutely impossible, packing doesn''t mean pulling out all the drawers and throwing them on the floor. When you ask, I dont think its like smashing, but looking for something. " Then he patted his thigh and said: "It''s broken, I shouldn''t go in and smash it." Looking at Fang Xinshui, who just realized it, Fang Lang rolled his eyes. What''s the use of reacting at this time? Everything that should have been smashed has already been smashed. "Things are getting more and more interesting. Uncle, see if you can find a way to investigate the situation and whereabouts of the family members of Wallaway Geller. " Fang Xinshui looked at Fang Lang in surprise and said: "You mean Wallaway Geller''s family is being controlled." Fang Lang shook his head and said: "Any situation is possible, let''s not jump to conclusions so quickly. Let''s take a look after all the situations are gathered together. Also, let your people stop now. This matter is causing a lot of trouble. If the police want to deal with the higher-ups, they will definitely take action against the gang. When Hodges is around, we are not afraid. But now that he is in custody, someone may take the opportunity to attack you. Don''t let people take your chances. Regarding the opening of Hongyitang in Brazil, you have to take it easy, and you can go to Mr. Situ to communicate clearly first. Wait until this matter has an accurate result before starting. " Fang Xinshui became more angry when he heard Fang Lang''s words, and punched the table with a fist and said: "Damn it, don''t let me catch this bastard. Otherwise, I will have to skin him." Fang Lang picked up an empty bowl, filled Fang Xinshui with a bowl of porridge and handed it to him: "Uncle, calm down first, there are a few things that are more important now. First of all, family safety must be taken seriously. I will first let the newly established investigation department draw out some professionals to form a security team. You are in charge of the work of immigration. See if you can find some experts from the immigration and enrich them. In the future, your Hongyi Hall will also need to find some good players. " Fang Xinshui took the porridge handed by Fang Lang, took a big breath and said: "No problem. Among the people who came from their hometown, there are a lot of veterans with rich combat experience. But what investigation department are you talking about, and what is the situation? Is it reliable? " Smiled, Fang Lang added a bowl to himself, and said calmly: "Do not worry! This investigation department, although it is a department I just established, but the staff are all military agents from my hometown. Being able to fight with Japanese spies, it must be no problem to protect everyone''s safety. However, they don''t have enough manpower, so you have to find a way to recruit some good ones. Those recruited had better let them check. After all, among the immigrants, the quality is somewhat uneven. At that time, dont find some veterans to come in. When encountering troubles, they can run faster than rabbits, thats not okay. " Fang Xinshui apparently did not expect that the investigation department would be composed of such a group of people, which made him look forward to it. "Agent? How did the agent come to Brazil? Shall we find more experts like this from our hometown? " Fang Lang looked at Fang Xinshui seriously, shook his head firmly and said: "This kind of person is a double-edged sword. If you use it well, it is a good knife. If you don''t use it well, you will hurt yourself. The situation of this group of people is a bit special, and I decided to keep them at a great risk. You can''t recruit people like this in your hometown. Even if you can find it, I dare not use it. Wait a minute is the nail of the Japanese, and we will be in trouble. " Seeing Fang Lang''s serious expression, Fang Xinshui understood that Fang Lang was warning himself. He also nodded seriously and said: "Okay, I''ll listen to you, reliability is more important than anything else." After taking a sip of porridge, he was about to continue explaining to his uncle, when he heard footsteps upstairs, Fang Tao walked down sleepily. After seeing Fang Lang and Fang Xinshui, they said hello, and when they came to the table, they wanted to reach out and take a piece of bread from the table and stuff it into their mouths. Fang Lang glared at him and said: "Wash your face and mouth? Just eat." I don''t know if Fang Tao saw the **** scene yesterday, but now he sees his brother a little frightened. Hastily retracted the outstretched hand and said: "Then I''m going to rinse my mouth and wash my face now." Looking at Fang Tao who seemed to be running away, Fang Lang twitched his mouth, didn''t say much, and continued to talk to Fang Xinshui: "Two days ago, didn''t we still talk about letting my master come over and open a Bajiquan gym in Sao Paulo? I need to hurry up on this matter. My idea is to build a large Bajiquan gym next to my home. Directly ask the masters to teach boxing here, and build the dormitory of the boxing gym nearby. If something happens at home, it will be safer to have such a group of experts around. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Fang Xinshui was a little surprised and said: "Can it still be like this? But if something really happens, relying on fists alone is useless! After all, in todays society, everyone has guns. You see, although most of the guys who attacked you this time were holding pistols. But this is not something that fists can handle! " Fang Lang smiled and said: "If the eighth-level boxing gym does not teach firearms, will the students know how to use guns? Or we can also set up a gun club! It is also built in the village, so that everyone can practice marksmanship when they are free. But dont build it too close to your home. After all, its a bit noisy when shooting, and its not good to affect the life at home. " Before Fang Xinshui returned, Fang Tao answered: "Yes, yes, I want to practice marksmanship. Last night, I didn''t know where my bullets went, and I didn''t hit a single enemy. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 269: leave temporarily Chapter 269 Temporary departure Hearing Fang Tao''s words, Fang Lang and Fang Xinshui looked at each other and laughed. Fang Xinshui nodded and said: "Okay, I''ll make arrangements later. Just a while ago, in our construction company, we found several construction workers who had built houses in their hometown. The old man always said that he wanted to live in a Chinese-style house. The current house is too small, and the guards have to go to another house to stay overnight when Langer returns home. At that time, I will also move my home back, and each of us will live in a courtyard house. At that time, the Bajiquan gym will also be built near the house. " After listening to Fang Xinshui''s words, Fang Lang remembered that it really should be like this. With the current asset scale of my family, no matter how big the house can be built. It is indeed inconvenient to live in the original small house after returning home, and it is also very difficult for the guards to perform their duties. After all, the current house is not safe to guard. "Hmm! That''s right, our family really needs to rebuild the house. Tao''er is so old, she also needs to repair a house when she gets married, so let''s do it in one step. However, this house should be well planned, and it will be passed down as the familys ancestral house in the future. We can find some royal construction masters from our hometown! Let our Chinese-style houses take root in Brazil, which is also part of cultural export! By the way, help me find some masters who have experience in Soviet-style garden construction. I plan to build a house in Rio de Janeiro. Otherwise, it is really inconvenient to stay in a hotel every time in Rio de Janeiro. I have asked Radia Redondo of Universal Asset Management to help me buy land in Rio de Janeiro. After finding a master, you can start building directly. I have already asked Global Trading to prepare the mahogany used for construction. " Fang Lang had just finished speaking his thoughts when the old man''s voice came from behind him. "It''s time to build a big house, don''t move this house. There is a suitable place on our family farm, and I will be in charge of the work when the time comes. " Fang Lang turned his head to look at the old man and said: "Okay, when the time comes, Grandpa, when you are free, go for a walk. When you see something you are not satisfied with, tell them in time. " The whole family seemed to have forgotten the adventure of last night and were chatting happily when the phone at home suddenly rang. Fang Tao hurried over to pick up the phone, and after asking a few questions, he said to Fang Lang: "Brother, I''m looking for you." Fang Lang got up and went to the living room, picked up the phone. "I am Fang Lang." The voice of General Crook of the Admiralty came from the receiver: "Fang, we already know what happened last night. The investigation team sent by the Ministry of the Navy has already set off from Rio de Janeiro. Let them handle the follow-up matters. Our aircraft carrier reception plan cannot be changed. I hope you can overcome the difficulties and return to your work as soon as possible. " Fang Lang was thinking about changing the itinerary just now! Unexpectedly, before I started to apply to my superiors, I was already blocked by my superiors. But he also understands how much the Brazilian Navy attaches importance to aircraft carriers. He could only talk in his heart, nodded helplessly and said: "Yes, Your Excellency General. I will go to the United States according to the original itinerary to receive our new aircraft carrier. " After receiving Fang Lang''s accurate answer, General Crook said sincerely: "Colonel Fang, please believe in our navy, we will never let go of the enemy who dares to attack our officers. The person who attacked you this time, we will definitely investigate to the end. " Hearing that General Crook defined the opponent as an enemy, Fang Lang also understood the navy''s attitude. But this situation is also reasonable. After all, the navy''s own senior officers don''t pay much attention to them after being attacked, so don''t expect the navy to have any combat effectiveness. "Thank you, Your Excellency General." The two talked for a short time, but everyone heard Fang Lang''s words and understood that Fang Lang must be leaving Sao Paulo. After hanging up the phone, Fang Lang called Qi Qingshan and asked: "Brothers who died, have you settled down?" Qi Qingshan nodded and said: "They are now in the morgue of the S?o Paulo Municipal Hospital and will be transported back to the Rio de Janeiro Naval Cemetery in accordance with naval tradition." Fang Lang said with a sad face: "They died for me, except for the Ministry of Defense pension. We need to provide pensions in accordance with the allowance rules of the First Fleet. You have to follow up on this matter yourself. If their family members have difficulties in life, you can find them a stable job in Natal. Make sure our soldiers have peace of mind. " "Yes, boss. I will follow up on this matter myself." Fang Lang glanced at the sun outside the window, sighed and said: "Notify the brothers to pack their luggage, we will go to the United States to receive the aircraft carrier according to the original plan." Qi Qingshan was obviously taken aback for a moment, but he quickly realized that he stood at attention and saluted, then said: "Yes, boss!" The family knew that Fang Lang would continue to return to work in the army, and they were very reluctant. But also understand the nature of military work. Before leaving St. Paul, Fang Lang personally went to the custody room of the St. Paul Police Station to meet Hodges. I found that this guy was obviously a lot more decadent. The first sentence when I saw Fang Lang was: "I must have seen that bearded man somewhere. Its just that the more I try to remember it, the more I cant remember it. " Fang Lang looked at this guy''s appearance and understood that this time he was dealt a huge blow. If you don''t do it well, you may give up on yourself. If this guy pleads guilty by himself, it will be difficult for Fang Lang to find the mastermind behind the scenes. "If you fall, who is most likely to take your place?" Hodges shook his head and said: "The police chief is different from the deputy chief in charge of specific business, and is appointed by the mayor. Mr. Mayor is elected by election. Different parties are elected, and the choice of police chief will be different. " "Now Scalia is the mayor, if he wants to replace you, who will take your place?" Fang Lang reminded. "I don''t know, the current deputy directors all know that I am Mayor Scalia''s elementary school classmate, and the relationship is very close. They have no chance without special circumstances. I haven''t heard of anyone who has been to Mayor Scalia for activities. " Shaking his head, Fang Lang understood that this guy really didn''t understand people''s hearts at all. If you ask him, you might as well ask Mayor Scalia directly. But I have a busy schedule today, so I don''t have time to meet with Mayor Scalia. This kind of thing can''t be explained clearly on the phone, so it''s better to wait and see the final result. "Brother, I need to emphasize to you again, I believe you are innocent from the beginning to the end. If I have time, I hope to investigate the truth of the matter with you. But I have more important things to do with me, and I''m leaving today. I don''t want to hear the news of your plea when I come back, or that someone will put the blame on you. So, please stick to it no matter what. If you need any help, send someone to Fangyuan Group to send a letter to my father. We will spare no effort to help you. Because we all want to find the real enemy. " Seeing this time, Fang Lang still firmly believes in himself. Hodges was so moved that the tears of a big man couldn''t stop rolling in his eyes. The voice choked up and said: "Fang, thank you! It is worthwhile for me to know you as a friend in my life. If I can wash away my grievances, I will definitely repay you. " Fang Lang smiled and patted Hodges on the shoulder, comforting: "We''re friends." Then Fang Lang made a special agreement with Hodges on a secret sign. Avoid the appearance of someone acting as Hodges or Fang Lang, liaising in the middle, and secretly arranging. Originally, Fang Lang didn''t have this kind of awareness, but before Fang Lang came, Zhong Ze, who had just joined the investigation department of Fangyuan Group, found Fang Lang. Request an investigation into this matter. Fang Lang originally thought that they had a language barrier and might not be able to carry out their work. He just needed to ask the people in the action team to protect the safety of his family. Unexpectedly, they directly found a translator who could speak Portuguese, and started the investigation. After listening to Fang Lang''s judgment, Zhong Ze also immediately ruled out Hodges'' suspicion. But because they don''t have law enforcement power now, they can''t interrogate Wolawi Geller to obtain a statement, and the language barrier makes the investigation very difficult. So, Fang Lang didn''t hold out much hope. However, Zhong Ze still provided a lot of suggestions for establishing a relationship with Hodges. Of course, Fang Lang can''t dampen everyone''s enthusiasm for work. At the same time, he is also thinking about how to enable the investigation department to carry out the investigation work smoothly. Can you set up a staff intelligence department in your first fleet? As long as they can give them an official identity background, they can work well. But the premise must be that the language barrier must be qualified, otherwise, no one will believe their identities with the documents of the intelligence department. A bad one will be regarded as a suspect pretending to be a soldier and arrested. Currently, there are four agencies investigating this matter. The first is the Sao Paulo Station of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, the second is the Brazilian Police Headquarters, the third is the Naval Investigation Team, and the fourth is the Investigation Department of the Fangyuan Group. The first three agencies are all official agencies, and they will definitely share information during the investigation. As for whether the investigation can find out the truth, it is hard to say. As for the investigation department, as the investigation department of the Fangyuan Group, it is really hard to say what results can be achieved in an unfamiliar place. So, in fact, Fang Lang felt that there was little chance of finding out the truth about this matter. With this mentality, Fang Lang took his incomplete guard platoon, waited on the plane again, and flew straight to Natal. When they arrived in Natal, almost all the school-level officers of the naval base went to the airport to pick them up. It''s not that Fang Lang will show off, but that everyone already knows that Fang Lang was attacked in Sao Paulo. Everyone wants to show concern for the officer. Fang Lang may not remember you if you come at this time, but if you don''t come, you have to think about whether you will be remembered. Fang Lang shook hands with every officer present to express his gratitude! This is his basic board, almost all of which are his direct descendants. Among them, some officers transferred from other troops have completely integrated into this group after being smelted in the First Fleet. It is very painful for those who cannot integrate into the First Fleet, because everyone can receive an allowance, but those who have not been approved by Fang Lang have no allowance to receive. Everyone is wary of a person without a subsidy. No matter what he does, there are countless pairs of eyes staring at him. Everyone is afraid that he will say something that should not be said outside, so that everyone''s subsidy will be suspended. . It can be said that such a person can hardly move an inch in the First Fleet. Even if he wants to talk to someone, no one is willing to talk to him, because people who are close to him will be treated with strange eyes. It is precisely because of this situation that in the strongest fleet of the Brazilian Navy, Fang Lang is the absolute authority and the boss of everyone. Therefore, everyone was very worried after hearing that someone had attacked Fang Lang. In this fleet, in addition to being able to have extra allowances, they can also have a sense of honor that is difficult for other troops to have. Speaking of the sense of honor, this young man will soon lead everyone to achieve greater glory. Let the Brazilian Navy have its first aircraft carrier, and the First Fleet will also become Brazil''s first aircraft carrier battle group. This will be destined to be recorded in the annals of history, and all the soldiers present will be remembered by the history of the Brazilian Navy. (end of this chapter) Chapter 270: aircraft carrier Chapter 270 Aircraft Carrier Among the welcoming team, the only figure who seemed uncoordinated was Colonel Valdo Grama, the commander of the Marine Corps. Because I didn''t understand the situation when I first came, after being beaten by Fang Lang with a combination of punches, he was thrown into the Marine Corps to participate in basic training. Almost killed him. After returning home after the first day of training, he already realized that he was being tricked. However, things have come to this point, and they have already participated in training. It is obviously more inappropriate to quit halfway, and it may cause their image in the entire army to plummet. He can''t convince the crowd at all. If the military commander can''t convince the crowd, then his career as a military leader will come to an end. So, he could only grit his teeth and hold on. Today, the chief of staff, de la Torre, told him to pick him up at the airport, and he was very happy. It''s not how much he misses Fang Lang, or how much he worries about Fang Lang''s attack. Mainly, you can take the opportunity to rest. After Fang Lang finished greeting everyone, he boarded the car and headed to the First Fleet Headquarters. In the car, Fang Lang asked Chief of Staff De La Torre: "Has the crew arrived safely?" "Yes, boss. The crew has arrived at the Norfolk Naval Base on the east coast of the United States as originally planned, just waiting for us to complete the formalities and be ready to receive our new aircraft carrier at any time. " Della Torre answered the question of his own officer neatly. "Then let''s get ready and set off for the United States according to the original plan to pick up our first aircraft carrier." At this moment, Fang Lang is actually looking forward to it very much, after all, this is an aircraft carrier! Although it is not as advanced as the aircraft carrier of later generations, it is also a big toy in the hearts of many boys. There should be few men who have never dreamed of commanding such a big guy to gallop across the ocean! Fang Lang admitted that battleships are also cool, but after all, battleships are out of date. Future wars require air supremacy, and the navy''s air supremacy needs to be guaranteed by aircraft carriers. At the same time, this is also a seed to accumulate aircraft carrier talents and understand the structure of aircraft carriers. The designers of their own shipyards can also get some inspiration from this big guy to prepare for their own shipyards to accept aircraft carrier orders in the future. "But, sir, don''t you need a break?" Della Torre asked with some concern. Fang Lang looked at de la Torre''s worried expression, smiled and said: "There is no need to rest, and I am not injured. But the soldiers of the guard platoon want to give them a vacation. This time, go to the United States and transfer a platoon from the Marine Corps to serve as a guard! " Della Torre knew that Fang Lang only needed to implement what Fang Lang had decided. Judging by Fang Lang''s appearance, he should not have been affected. After all, Fang Lang was an army soldier who participated in the European War, and he must be used to seeing life and death scenes. "Okay boss. Lieutenant Sirio Reich, waiting for you in your office, said that there is something to report to you." Hearing de la Torre''s words, Fang Lang''s eyes narrowed slightly, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and he smiled like a fox. He knew in his heart that the things he arranged for him should have been done. nodded and did not speak again. Della Torre would not take the initiative to ask Fang Lang, after all, Fang Lang would never hide things from him that he needed to know. Don''t ask about things that the chief doesn''t say, this is the cleverness of de la Torre. There was nothing to say all the way. As soon as Fang Lang arrived at the door of his office, he saw Lieutenant Sirio Leitch from the Second Division of the Logistics Department sitting in the waiting area outside the office. Still holding a file bag in his hand, when he saw Fang Lang coming back, he quickly got up and saluted: "Hello, sir!" Fang Lang smiled and waved his hand and pointed to the office: "Let''s go in and talk." After finishing speaking, he stepped forward and opened the door of his office. Lieutenant Sirio Leitch followed closely behind and walked in. Qi Qingshan, who followed behind, immediately closed the office door from the outside. Fang Lang, who entered the office, went directly to his desk, and said to Lieutenant Sirio Leitch very casually: "Show me the information, and pour what you want to drink yourself! Pour me a cup of black tea by the way." Seeing Fang Lang''s attitude, Lieutenant Sirio Leitch smiled and was not polite. He put the file bag in his hand on the desk with both hands and pushed it in front of Fang Lang. Turning around and being familiar with the road, he began to go to the tea area to prepare tea for Fang Lang. Fang Lang opened the file bag, and saw a photo of a woman sandwiched between several files. The woman looked twenty-five or six years old, wearing a dress, with a graceful figure and a big wave that was very eye-catching. It can also be seen from the waves above the black and white photo that this is a gorgeous and moving beauty. "Hehe. No wonder, this can be regarded as a hero''s sad beauty pass!" Lieutenant Sirio Leitch turned back to Fang Lang and said: "Yes, boss. I''ve seen her in person, prettier than the pictures. With big golden waves, few men can refuse. " Fang Lang raised his head and smiled at Lieutenant Sirio Reich with a smile: "Why, you also like big waves?" Lieutenant Sirio Leitch looked at the officer''s weird expression, and didn''t quite understand what Fang Lang meant. But still smiled and said: "Boss, didn''t you teach us to learn to appreciate all good things? Don''t you just love big waves? " Happiness between men is sometimes very simple. Fang Lang knew that Lieutenant Sirio Leitch didn''t really understand the meaning of his words, but he still couldn''t help laughing. "Haha. Lieutenant Sirio Reich, I like your frankness. I don''t think anyone can say no to a blonde with big waves, can they? " Laughing, he began to check the information on the file, but found nothing special. Continued to open it backwards. During Fang Lang''s inspection, Lieutenant Sirio Leitch picked up a cup of black tea and put it in Fang Lang''s hand. Then he stood quietly opposite the desk, waiting for Fang Lang to finish reading the materials. Fang Lang looked up and saw that Lieutenant Sirio Leitch hadn''t prepared a drink for himself. asked: "Why don''t you pour yourself a glass?" Lieutenant Sirio Leitch knew that Fang Lang was not being polite to him, but really regarded himself as one of his own. So let yourself be casual. But it is impossible for him to prepare tea for himself in the chief''s office at will. smiled and shook his head and said: "I just drank two cups of coffee outside." Hearing the other party''s answer, Fang Lang didn''t continue to worry about such trivial matters, and asked: "Is the person still in the United States?" "Yes, we were just monitoring from a distance and did not contact him. We are ready to take them back to Natal if you agree. " "Is her side clean?" "For now, we haven''t found any abnormalities. Nor did she see any contact with anyone suspected of being an intelligence officer. " "I see, I will visit the United States this time." As he spoke, Fang Lang put the information back into the file bag and handed it to Lieutenant Sirio Leitch. The lieutenant took over with both hands: "Understood, then I''ll go down and make arrangements." Fang Lang nodded, picked up the black tea on the table and took a sip, his eyes became a little deep. Lieutenant Sirio Leitch saluted and turned to leave. After a short rest in Natal, Fang Lang and his party took a special plane to fly directly to Norfolk, the US East Coast Naval Base. Because of General Clark''s operation, this arms purchase has become a purely commercial operation, so the US Navy did not arrange personnel docking. Instead, the staff of Shata Company directly arranged vehicles to send everyone directly to the naval base. Looking at the aircraft carrier that is about to belong to you through the car window is a completely different feeling from looking at someone else''s aircraft carrier. The vehicle looked very small when parked next to the aircraft carrier. After the vehicle stopped, Fang Lang pushed the door and got off. Can''t wait to look up at the behemoth beside him. A long line of vehicles that followed stopped one after another. After the soldiers jumped out of the back bucket of the truck, they also looked up one after another, sighing uncontrollably. Without personal experience, I really can''t understand everyone''s mood at the moment. General Clark patted Fang Lang''s arm and said: "It''s not like you haven''t been on an aircraft carrier before, why are you making such a fuss?" Fang Lang said without looking back: "You don''t understand, the original aircraft carrier belonged to you, but now this one belongs to me. This feeling is completely different. " Clark looked at Fang Lang''s saliva about to flow out, and smiled and said: "Can there be any difference, aren''t they all the same warship?" "You see other people''s women are very beautiful in the photos, can you feel the same as having this beautiful woman yourself?" Fang Lang''s words made the old man Clark on the side almost vomit blood with anger. Is there such a description? But thinking about the first time I took over my own aircraft carrier, I was equally excited, so I just shook my head and didn''t say much. After finally recovering, Fang Lang glanced at the chaotic team behind him, frowned, and coughed heavily. The deputy captain came to his senses and quickly blew the assembly whistle. The soldiers reacted and began to line up one after another. Turning his head, Fang Lang saw three people going up and down the aircraft carrier''s gangway, led by Jefferson, the general manager of Shata Company. Fang Lang smiled and stepped forward to shake hands with each other, hug each other, and greet each other. "Boss, this big guy is in very good condition. We just arranged for the navy to do a deep maintenance. We have inspected the goods and all the equipment is operating normally. No equipment has been disassembled, and it can be put into battle at any time. " Jefferson also admired Fang Lang''s relationship with the US Navy very much in his heart, and he was able to persuade the Navy to resolve this matter so quickly. "That''s good, is there any document that I need to sign?" Fang Lang is very satisfied with the big guy in front of him at the moment, after all, this is currently the most advanced aircraft carrier in the world. "The documents are not in a hurry, we have already signed most of the documents with people from the Brazilian Navy Department and the Logistics Equipment Department. Just wait for you to sign on the acceptance document. " "That is to say, as long as we pass the inspection and sign the document, this aircraft carrier belongs to the Brazilian Navy, right?" "Yes, boss!" "What are you waiting for." Fang Lang smiled and turned to the newly formed aircraft carrier officers and said: "We board the ship for acceptance." Everyone suddenly agreed. "Yes, sir." Then all the soldiers, led by their respective officers and American advisers, boarded the most advanced Essex-class aircraft carrier in the world. Because most of the U.S. military consultants originally served on this Tarawa aircraft carrier, they are very familiar with the status of the aircraft carrier. After everyone boarded the aircraft carrier, Fang Lang, accompanied by Jefferson, visited the aircraft carrier of his own. (end of this chapter) Chapter 271: visit Chapter 271 Visit The main dimensions of the Essex-class aircraft carrier are 265.79 meters 44.99 meters, the standard displacement is 27,100 tons, the full load displacement is 33,000 tons, and the crew establishment is 2,750-3,450. Powered by 4 steam turbines, steam propulsion, four shafts and four propellers, the maximum speed is 33 knots, the endurance is 20,000 nautical miles/15 knots, the flight deck is 262.13 meters x 29.26 meters, and the maximum carrying capacity is 100-103 aircraft. But at this moment, the deck of the aircraft is full of aircraft, and the number obviously exceeds the maximum carrying capacity. Even the runway of the plane has been filled by planes, Fang Lang looked at Jefferson with a puzzled face and said: "So many planes? What''s the situation? Extra gift?" Jefferson smiled and said: "How is it possible, I can''t use your own money to give favors to the Brazilian Navy. A carrier comes with a hundred aircraft. Plus, didn''t you order additional F6F Hellcat carrier-based fighter and TBF "Avenger bomber" later? We will send you to the aircraft carrier together. " Fang Lang slapped his head, only to remember that the Ministry of the Navy gave a public fee, which he used to buy the plane. But seeing the already crowded apron, Fang Lang said with a headache: "But if it''s dangerous when you go back, you won''t have the chance to take off a few planes to resist!" Jefferson looked at Fang Lang in surprise and said: "Who else dares to attack the US aircraft carrier?" Facing the innate self-confidence of Americans, Fang Lang didn''t know how to answer for a while. Its no wonder that the Americans of later generations look like they are the second child and their own third child. It turns out that this kind of self-confidence has already begun to appear since this time. Fortunately, in a few years on the peninsula, his hometown will teach him how to be a human being, otherwise these guys may feel that they are the strongest in the universe. "After going to sea, it will become our Brazilian Navy." Fang Lang also knew that the world war had just ended, and everyone was licking their wounds. The world as a whole is relatively peaceful, but peace does not mean safety! There is actually an arms race among South American countries. It is hard to say whether the neighboring countries will be happy for Brazil to have its own aircraft carrier. Fang Lang looked at these fighter jets and knew that there was no way to fly back to Brazil directly for some ranges, so he could only shake his head. Suddenly remembered that in the application report at that time, I also promised to buy destroyers for other naval bases together! hurriedly asked: "By the way, I remember that we bought four Fletcher-class destroyers at the same time, didn''t we? When will you deliver the goods, isn''t it with the aircraft carrier? I need their escort. " Jefferson nodded and said: "Yes, they also deliver in these two days, but their delivery location is in New York Harbor." Fang Lang smiled and said: "OK! That''s no problem. I''ll send them a telegram and ask them to wait for me to meet up in the open sea before returning home together. Escort me by the way! " Next, Fang Lang, accompanied by Jefferson and Clark, conducted a detailed tour of the various cabins of the entire aircraft carrier. Because the aircraft carrier is too huge, this visit lasted a whole afternoon. Fang Lang lived in the captain''s room on the aircraft carrier that night. Early the next morning, the crew members continued to familiarize themselves with the equipment on board while conducting inspections. Fang Lang, accompanied by the guards, boarded the vehicle waiting outside the Norfolk Naval Base, and left the Naval Base. "Sir, this girl lives in the suburbs of Washington, and it may take us four hours to get there." Lieutenant Sirio Leitch sat in the co-pilot seat and turned his head to Fang Lang in the back row. "It''s okay, I have enough patience." Fang Lang seemed very relaxed. After traveling for more than four hours, the vehicle finally arrived at a town called Stafford in the outer suburbs of Washington. Lieutenant Sirio Leitch pointed to a clothing store by the roadside and said: "Boss, this is the clothing store opened by Miss Ianna Siti." Fang Lang glanced out the window at this small ready-made clothing store, which mainly deals in women''s clothing. Now there are two customers in the store, and they are communicating with the blond beauty with big waves that Fang Lang has seen in the photo. Looking at the street environment, I have to say that the American economy in this era is really developing very well. In a small town in the suburbs, there are many cars parked on the side of the road. Even their fleet of five cars parked on the side of the road did not attract much attention. Fang Lang, who didn''t see any danger, nodded and said: "Then let''s go directly to visit Miss Ianna Siti, is the gift you prepared ready?" Sirio Leitch quickly took out a gift box from his arms, handed it to Fang Lang and said: "Boss, it''s ready, here is a Tiffany sterling silver bracelet." Fang Lang took it and turned it upside down, picked a thumbs up and smiled at Sirio Reich: "You kid actually knows Tiffany, not bad." Hearing Fang Lang''s ridicule, Sirio Leitch blushed slightly, and directly pushed open the door of the co-pilot to get out of the car. The doors of other vehicles also opened at the same time, and a group of big men in suits stared vigilantly at the surroundings and slowly approached Fang Lang''s vehicle. Such an action finally attracted the attention of the surrounding crowd. After all, vehicles have become popular, and everyone feels that there is nothing new to see. But the fact that a big shot is clearly here now has aroused the curiosity of the public. Dont say that foreigners are not lively, its because they think its not fresh enough, and theres nothing interesting about it. Today, when such a big man travels, the appearance of a bunch of bodyguards accompanying him still draws everyone''s attention. Lieutenant Sirio Leitch winked at the soldiers beside him, and three of them pushed open the door of the clothing store first and walked in. After confirming that there is no danger inside, he nodded to the people outside. Sirio Leitch stepped forward and opened Fang Lang''s car door. Fang Lang saw the three people in the clothing store, and was obviously a little overwhelmed by the situation in front of him. Smiled, put the present in his jacket pocket, and got out of the car. The people around didn''t see Fang Lang''s appearance clearly because of the bodyguard''s obstruction. But the three people in the store saw a young Chinese man, and they were obviously taken aback. The shopkeeper with blond hair and big waves seemed slightly disappointed. Fang Lang smiled, making himself look as harmless as possible, and walked into this small women''s clothing store with a spring breeze on his face. smiled at the blond beauty with big waves: "Hello, Miss Ianna Siti, my name is Fang Lang, from Brazil, nice to meet you!" Hearing that Fang Lang was from Brazil, the blond big wave''s eyes widened, and he said in disbelief: "Did Waldo ask you to pick me up?" At this time, Fang Lang seemed to be able to hear the BGM ringing in the girl''s heart, and the narration of Journey to the West followed. My Prince Charming has come to pick me up on colorful auspicious clouds. Fang Lang coughed twice, and glanced at the two customers in the store with slightly apologetic eyes. The two young women were very tactful. After nodding to Fang Lang, they opened the store door and left. "Uh! Ms. Ianna Siti, I am actually the chief of Valdo Grama. This time I am on business in the United States, and I am entrusted by him to come to visit you. This is a little thought I hope you like it. " Said and handed over the gift in his hand. The blond big wave didn''t refuse. After taking the gift casually, he said thank you and unpacked the gift. Seeing Tiffany''s standards, a smile immediately appeared on his face. After taking out the bracelet and gesturing on his wrist for a while, he seemed very satisfied. smiled sweetly at Fang Lang again and said: "Thank you for the gift, I like it very much." Then he looked Fang Lang up and down before saying: "You are so young, you are his chief?" Fang Lang smiled shyly and said: "The family has some connections in the army." Blonde Big Wave said with a suddenly realized expression: "Oh! That''s no wonder, I understand." When the guards around heard Fang Lang''s words, the corners of their mouths twitched. "He''s a colonel now, so aren''t you a general?" Soon, the blond hair with big waves opened his eyes and mouth wide open, saying in disbelief. Fang Lang was a little surprised. It seems that Valdo Grama has been in contact with this Miss Ianna Siti recently! Otherwise, how could Miss Ianna Siti know about the military rank that was upgraded after returning to Brazil! smiled and shook his head tentatively: "No, I am also a colonel, but I am his leader in position. Didn''t you hear he''s transferred to the Navy now? " The blond big wave said a little disappointed: "We haven''t communicated for almost a month." Fang Lang nodded suddenly and said: "So that''s the case. I just heard what you mean, is Valdo Grama going to pick you up to Brazil? Can." Seeing Fang Lang''s hesitant expression, Miss Ianna Siti waved her hand indifferently and said: "Don''t worry, I know he has a wife. But he and I really love each other, and we already have our own children. He promised me that he would divorce his wife and marry me. " Good guy, I almost blurted out a national curse. No wonder Valdo Grama wants to buy real estate. Could it be that he is really planning to divorce his original wife and be with this blonde with big waves. Isn''t this worse than myself. I am just fraternity, but I never deceive women. Didnt the information given by the Second Section of the Logistics Department say that Valdo Grama loved his wife very much? It is simply obedience and obedience. Unexpectedly, he promised the woman in front of him that he would marry her and go home. Thinking about Fang Lang, he finds it impossible. Given Valdo Grama''s situation in the Brazilian army, if he really divorces his wife, he will inevitably lose the support of his father-in-law. Under such circumstances, everything he has now will be in vain. So Fang Lang is sure that he will never divorce his wife and marry the blond big wave in front of him. If that''s the case, is the big blonde wave even that important? Soon, Fang Lang realized that it didn''t matter how important the blond big wave in front of him was to Valdo Grama. Waldo Grama would never want his wife to know the existence of this little girl. This big blonde wave is a very useful handle no matter how you look at it. It seems that I need to arrange someone to protect the blond big wave in front of me. It would be bad if that guy did some inhumane things in order to prevent his wife from discovering the existence of this big wave. "Oh! So that''s the case, no wonder he spent a huge amount of money to buy a luxury house in Rio de Janeiro a while ago. Is this going to pick you up and live with him? " The blond haired big wave said with a smile on his face: "Yes, he told me about the mansion. But I haven''t seen it. Have you ever visited? " The look of anticipation in the eyes overflowed the eye sockets. Fang Lang felt that the blond big wave in front of him was really innocent and cute. Not only was he unguarded against a stranger like himself, but he also believed in what the scumbag said. This made Fang Lang feel guilty when chatting with him. shook his head and said: Our base is in Natal, a long way from Rio de Janeiro. So, I didn''t have a chance to visit the love nest he bought for you. " I don''t know if it was the love nest that Fang Lang said, which aroused some associations with the blond big wave, and her face turned a little blushing. (end of this chapter) Chapter 272: not a good person Chapter 272 Not a good person Looking at the girl in front of him who looked forward to a bright future, Fang Lang resisted the urge to tell the truth. I couldn''t help but scold Waldo Grama for being a scumbag again. How can you deceive a girl''s feelings like this! The realm is too low. It seems that after going back, I have to have a good chat with him and let him learn about his own realm. "Is he transferred to Natal to work now? No wonder he can''t be contacted during this time." The naive blonde with big waves has already made up for the difficulty of Valdo Grama, and forgave the other party for losing contact. But he didn''t know that the other party was just kicked out of the army after being found out because of reselling arms. But this matter really has something to do with the blond wave in front of him. After all, Valdo Grama also took the risk to raise some private money to buy a love nest! The helpless Fang Lang could only choose to nod, agreeing with her point of view. "Yes, now our army is organizing large-scale military training activities, which may last as long as half a year. Therefore, there may be fewer chances of being able to contact in the later period. " Who made Fang Lang despise Colonel Valdo Grama''s scumbag behavior, but everyone was a man, so they couldn''t help covering him up. After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Ms. Ianna Siti felt depressed for an instant, and tears were about to burst into her eyes. Fang Lang on the side was a little overwhelmed, and quickly comforted: "It''s okay, it''s okay, I''ll give him a vacation and let him come and visit you!" I have to sigh in my heart that it is not easy to be in a long-distance relationship! I don''t know if Lilith and Vivian feel the same way at this time. I can''t leave my girlfriend aside like Colonel Valdo Grama, and be alone. It seems that after Lilith and Vivian finish their studies, they must take the time to bring the two girls to their side for a reunion. After hearing Fang Lang''s words, the blond big wave said with surprise on his face: "Really? He really thanked you, you are a good officer." Then suddenly said: "Can you tell me his new address! Maybe I can go to him too." Fang Lang almost jumped up in shock at these words, girl, if you really show up in Natal, it might be the scene of a large car accident. The consequences will be very serious. If Colonel Valdo Grama''s wife finds out, they might get a divorce. If they get divorced, Colonel Valdo Grama will lose his backer in the Brazilian military, or he will be replaced in advance. Then he will face a new uncontrollable situation, which is not what Fang Lang wants to see. Even if this kind of thing really happens, it must be done after you have a suitable Marine Corps commander, and it must be done under your own control. But now that the girl asked for the address, Fang Lang couldn''t refuse to answer. After thinking about it, he said: "Miss Ianna Siti, we are now training and stationed at the naval base in Natal, Brazil, and the address is easy to find. However, I do not recommend that you seek out Mr. Valdo Grama. Because, due to the intensive training in the past six months, it is impossible for him to have time to deal with private affairs at home. If the family affairs have not been resolved, you will suddenly appear. May disrupt his arrangement and even affect his future. I think you''d better discuss it with Mr. Valdo Grama before deciding when to go to Natal. " But its been so long, I miss him so much, and our kids need him. The blonde with big waves is still unwilling to give up his ideas. Now Fang Lang has a headache, and he can''t take care of his family affairs. He didn''t expect to help deal with the mess under his own hands. This is so difficult. I knew this was the case, so why did I come here to confirm the situation? Take the girl''s photo and information, and talk directly to Colonel Valdo Grama, isn''t it the same? Its all right now, its a bit hard to get off. This old boy is also the same. Its fine for an old cow to eat young grass. Didn''t even check if he had the ability, did he think it was someone from another party? To be honest, Fang Lang''s goal this time has actually been achieved. After all, I personally appeared in front of this blond big wave, and I don''t need to take the initiative to talk to Colonel Valdo Grama. As long as the blond big wave talks to him, a Chinese officer from Brazil has visited her. Colonel Valdo Grama must understand what he should do. This is better than Fang Lang negotiating directly with the colonel. Everyone can easily reach a tacit understanding, and it is not easy to tear the skin apart. But now this girl is a little in love! Maybe it was self-defeating and let this girl go straight to Natal, and a tragic accident happened, which would be a disaster for everyone. After coughing twice, Fang Lang thought for a while and said: "After all, this is your private matter. You can send a telegram to discuss with Mr. Valdo Grama. It is not convenient for us to get involved too much." Maybe the blond-haired big wave also understands that he should not be too self-willed, so he nodded helplessly and said: "Alright then! Thank you!" Fang Lang breathed a long sigh of relief, and after secretly cursing Colonel Valdo Grama a few words in his heart, he stood up and said to the girl in front of him: "I think, my mission is done. I have to go to Boston today, so I wont bother you anymore. Hope you have a great time miss. " A single woman with blond hair and big waves must not be able to stay with Fang Lang for too long. Hearing that Fang Lang was about to leave, she didn''t try to keep her, so she got up and saluted: "Mr. Fang, thank you for your message. Next time, please give me a chance to entertain you with Valdo Grama." Fang Lang expressed his gratitude politely, exited Ms. Ianna Siti''s women''s clothing store, and boarded the car on the side of the road as if fleeing. I thought to myself: "There should be no such opportunity." Lieutenant Sirio Leitch saw Fang Lang''s strange expression, and asked in puzzlement: "Boss, are things not going well?" Fang Lang shook his head and said: "Our Colonel Valdo Grama is really not a good man. However, we have achieved the purpose of this trip. You inform your family that if there is a telegram sent from here to Mr. Colonel, please dont send it to Mr. Colonels house. By the way, pay attention to the content of the telegram, and see if Miss Ianna Siti can help us achieve our goal smoothly. " Lieutenant Sirio Leitch nodded in understanding. There was nothing to say all the way. Fang Lang flew from Washington to Boston to accompany his girlfriend Lilith. After all, I am not a scumbag like Colonel Valdo Grama. Now that I have arrived in the United States, of course I have to accompany my girlfriend. However, time is tight and tasks are heavy. Fang Lang can only accompany Lilith for two days in Boston. After agreeing to invite Lilith and Vivian''s family to Brazil for this summer vacation, Fang Lang returned to the Norfolk Naval Base again. After nearly three days of inspection, a complete acceptance report was submitted below. After confirming that everything was normal on the aircraft carrier, Fang Lang signed the document for confirmation of receipt. This aircraft carrier with a displacement of 30,000 tons is officially owned by the First Fleet of the Brazilian Navy. Of course, the aircraft carrier that has been signed and received cannot always stop at someone elses US naval base. So, early the next morning, the aircraft carrier that had completed its replenishment officially anchored and slowly left the Norfolk Naval Base. Join the four Fletcher-class destroyers that are waiting in the open sea and belong to other naval bases, and head to the Natal Naval Base in Brazil. S?o Paulo Police Department, Brazil. Five days have passed since Fang Lang was attacked in Brazil. Captain Archido Martel, head of the Sao Paulo Station of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, looked at the investigators in the office with a livid face and said: "Is your brain full of shit? Can''t even see such an obvious method of framing? Told everyone long ago not to set eyes on Police Chief Sebastio Hodges. But you investigate and investigate, or tell me that all the clues point to the police chief Sebastiio Hodges. Five days have passed, how the outside newspapers are reporting our incompetence, cant you see? " The investigators below who belonged to several different investigation agencies were all silent, not daring to speak out. Navy Department Investigation Team Leader Major Antoine Rosa patted Captain Archido Martel on the shoulder and said: "Achido, don''t worry, we don''t have many clues now, we can only look for clues from these surviving murderers. Those gangsters didn''t know anything at all, and thought they were really participating in a robbery. There is no way to open a breakthrough from them. Now we have only two clues, one is the dead bearded man, but according to the current investigation, this guy seems to have popped out of the ground suddenly. There is no trace to check, and it directly becomes a dead end. Another Sheriff, Wollaway Geller, was bitten to death. Everything was ordered by Police Chief Sebastiano Hodges. His home has been smashed into a mess, and all his family members are missing. Now we suspect that someone held his family hostage and threatened him to shut up. Unless we can find his family members and ensure their safety, otherwise, for the safety of his family, this guy probably wont let go if he is killed. In the past few days, the St. Paul Police Department has conducted multiple sweep-type investigations across the entire St. Paul, but no kidnappers have been found. It was Colonel Fang''s uncle who took the initiative to admit that he was the one who smashed Sheriff Worawee Geller''s house. But he just wanted to vent his anger. The results of the investigation on him also showed that he was not suspected. He also made it very clear that when they entered Sheriff Wallaway Geller''s home, his home had already been searched. It is estimated that there is something useful, and it has been cleaned up. Everyone went to Director Sebastio Hodges'' house to search and found many clues, but these clues all pointed to Director Sebastio Hodges himself. As a result, Mr. Director said that he had never seen many things in these evidences and thought they were framed. The director''s family also confirmed this. But colleagues from the Police Headquarters, I dont know if there are any results for the new investigation direction proposed yesterday. " Jakan Morano, senior investigator of the Brazilian Police Headquarters, heard the words of Major Antoine Rocha, the investigation team leader of the Navy Department: "We suspect that the enemy''s target is not Colonel Fang, but Colonel Fang''s father. Since yesterday, an investigation has been launched around Mr. Fang Xinshan''s relationship. Mr. Fang Xinshan is the president of Fangyuan Group. The scale of Fangyuan Group is too large, which brings great difficulties to our investigation. If possible, we hope to get the support of the two of you. " After listening to Hakan Morano''s words, Captain Archido Martell of the intelligence agency did not quite agree with his investigation direction. shook his head and said: "You are really wasting time, if the other party''s target is Mr. Fang Xinshan, there is no need to assassinate Colonel Fang with him. As far as I know, Mr. Fang Xinshan used to drive to and from get off work alone, and there was almost no difficulty in assassinating him. Why do you choose to act when you are protected by Colonel Fang''s guards? " (end of this chapter) Chapter 273: Chapter 273 Just as the tripartite investigation agency was having a meeting to analyze the case, a policeman rushed in and reported to Hakan Morano, a senior investigator from the Brazilian Police Headquarters: "Sir, a group of people came to the door, claiming to be an investigation team formed by the Ministry of Justice to take over the investigation of Colonel Fang''s attack." All eyes were on Hakan Morano, a senior investigator from the police headquarters. Because among the investigation team present, only the Police Headquarters is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice. Major Antoine Rocha is an investigation team formed by the Ministry of the Navy and is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of the Navy. Captain Archido Martell is the head of the Sao Paulo Station of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, which belongs to the Brazilian Ministry of Defense and is under the jurisdiction of the Staff Department. The Ministry of the Navy is also under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Defense, so both of them looked at Hakan Morano, who belongs to the Ministry of Justice system, not because they suspected that Hakan Morano would take credit. After all, this matter is obviously not so easy to investigate clearly, and if it is not done well, it will cause a commotion. But now, an investigation team from the Ministry of Justice has come and directly stated that they want to take over the entire case, which is absolutely unacceptable to the other two. They all have missions, and Captain Archido Martell is a member of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency. Before participating in the investigation, Lieutenant Colonel Blackwell, the head of the counterintelligence department of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, personally called him to explain this matter to him. He must find out the real truth. Instead of looking for a scapegoat. Before Major Antoine Rocha from the Navy Department came, General Crook of the Navy Department also made it clear that those who dared to attack the Navy Colonel must have a simple background. asked him to be careful and never let the real murderer slip away from his nose. The dignity of the navy cannot be violated. If the real mastermind is not found, the case will not be over. If the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice also came to participate in the case investigation, they would welcome it with their hands up. After all, multiple people may have multiple ideas to solve the case. But as soon as this guy came over, he asked others to step aside, which made everyone angry. Jakan Morano of the Police Headquarters certainly understands the truth of this, but in the end the Ministry of Justice is his superior department, and others can say no, but he cannot. He could only look at the two of them apologetically, and then said to the visitor: "Go and invite the other party to come to us! It just so happens that we are also discussing the case, and we will brainstorm together to see if we can find new ideas." Before the policeman could respond, the office door was pushed open roughly. A group of investigators from the Department of Justice in suits and ties have filed in. The leader was a half-bald middle-aged man who was less than forty years old. He should have heard the words of Hakan Morano from the Police Headquarters at the door, and said directly: "No, it took you five days, but you didn''t have the ability to investigate any progress, and you couldn''t provide a better idea. My name is Orenz Rivien, Senior Director of Investigations at the Brazilian Ministry of Justice. According to the order of Mr. President, he fully took over the investigation of the assassination of Captain Fang Lang of the Navy. From now on, suspend all work in your hands, and seal up all documents and files. Hand over all witnesses and evidence to us without any concealment or omission. " Everyone in the office got up one after another when they heard this, and started to make noise in aggrieved manner. "Why!" "The Department of Justice is amazing!" "Do you **** understand the situation? Just doubt our ability." But no matter how noisy the people in the office were, this senior investigation director of the Ministry of Justice named Orenz Rivien had a proud and calm expression on his face. Everyone quarreled for nearly two minutes. Major Antoine Rocha from the Admiralty reached out to suppress everyone''s chaotic voices. Facing the Ministry of Justice official: "You just said, whose order are you here?" Olenz Rivien looked Major Antonel Rosa up and down, and then slowly said: "It doesn''t look like it''s all trash, there is still someone who brought ears. There is no discipline at all, a group of stragglers, no wonder wasting five days and getting nothing. Let me say it again, we are under the order of Mr. President to fully take over the investigation of the assassination of Colonel Fang Lang. If you have any opinions, you can ask your higher authorities to ask the Presidential Office or the Ministry of Justice. Now please obey my order and seal all documents and archives. Hand over all witnesses and evidence to us without any concealment or omission. " As he spoke, he stretched his left hand back, and the subordinate next to him quickly opened a leather folder, and handed it to Orlenz Rivien respectfully. The investigation director of the Ministry of Justice, after showing the opened folder to everyone, continued: "Do you understand now? Does anyone have any questions?" Everyone looked at the order issued by President Dutra himself, and fell silent for a while. Major Antoine Rocha and Captain Archido Martell exchanged glances, then shook their heads slightly. Then the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice began to fully take over all documents, files, witnesses, and evidence. Major Antonel Rocha and Captain Archido Martell secretly reported the situation here to their superiors. The instructions I got were, don''t leave, do a good job in the handover, and cooperate with the investigation of the Ministry of Justice. So the two found Orenz Rivien, the investigation director again, hoping to join the investigation team and help the investigation together. Promise to fully cooperate with the work of the Ministry of Justice, which is led by the Ministry of Justice and assisted by them. But the proud Orenz Rivien directly refused, and made it clear that the President''s order was to be investigated by the Ministry of Justice. The two were so angry that they could not wait to curse. What''s more, the Ministry of Justice directly began to transfer all the materials and personnel to the Ministry of Justice building in Sao Paulo, without giving others the opportunity to contact them. Everyone can only stand aside and stare blankly, powerless. "Achido, what should we do now, this **** is not willing to let us participate at all." Major Antoine Rocha stood at the gate of the St. Paul Police Station, watching the vehicles of the Ministry of Justice leave. Said to Captain Archido Martell beside him. "You said, does the Ministry of Justice already have some clues and suspect that there is a problem in our three investigation teams?" Captain Archido Martell of the intelligence agency folded his arms and touched his chin with his left hand. Major Antoine Rocha was taken aback by what this guy said, and said in disbelief: "Are you suspicious that there are people behind the scenes in our three investigation teams?" Captain Archido Martell looked up at the building of the St. Paul Police Station, touched his chin and said: "After all, even the sheriff of the police station can be a killer, so it''s normal to have more eyeliners in the police station! Did it ever occur to you that Sergeant Wallaway Geller has been locked up in the cell and we haven''t spoken to him about his home. Why did he bite to death and not let go? Will someone tell him about the situation at home? " After listening to what Captain Archido Martell said, Major Antonel Rocha frowned, nodded and said: "You are right, it seems that within our investigation team, there may really be someone behind the scenes. Who do you think is behind this scene? So powerful. Why did he murder Colonel Fong? Vendetta? Love kill? Or for money, or a political opponent? According to our investigation, Colonel Fang has no enemies in Brazil! In addition to the Japanese, there is only one Yakubu family that has been wiped out. But these two forces don''t have such a great energy! Can you place so many people in the police station? I don''t believe that these two forces are so powerful. It is even more impossible to kill in love. Colonel Fang''s girlfriend is studying in the United States, and they are not Brazilians. It makes no sense to have a rival with such energy in Brazil! It is possible to make money, but the Fangyuan Group has only suddenly risen in the past two years! There is no one in the Fang family who has close contacts with the police, and it is even more impossible to have such a large amount of energy in the police station. This matter is strange. Its a bit hard to talk about political opponents. Do you think someone has taken a fancy to the position of commander of the First Fleet? " Captain Archido Martell''s eyelids twitched, and he said bitterly: "If this is the case, we will have to check the interior of our army. It seems that it is necessary for us to go back and investigate separately. " Major Antoine Rocha also sighed: "Yes! It would be embarrassing if it was really inside the army." Suddenly, a "bang" gunshot came from a distance, directly interrupting the thoughts of the two of them. The two looked up at the direction where the gunfire sounded at the same time, looked at each other, and shouted: "not good!" Shouted to the surrounding subordinates: "Quick, everyone, catch up to the DOJ convoy. Grab the shooter." It wasnt long before the convoy left. Everyone hurriedly took out their weapons, looked for the nearest means of transportation and rushed out. Some people got into cars, some rode bicycles, some climbed onto roadside trucks, and some simply leaned on their own feet. The incident happened not far from them. Less than two kilometers away from the police station, they saw the motorcade of the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice parked in the middle of the road. A group of agents from the Ministry of Justice stood by the side of the vehicle on guard with weapons in hand, just as they were facing an enemy. Seeing such a large group of people rushing over, they quickly fired warning shots. After seeing clearly that the people who came were the members of the three investigation teams and the police who had just separated, he breathed a sigh of relief. Major Antoine Rocha was so anxious that he stood in the distance and shouted: "I am Major Antoine Rosa, the investigation team leader of the Ministry of the Navy. Don''t be nervous, what happened?" The Justice Department police officer on the opposite side obviously knew him, and responded directly: "I know you. We were attacked here. A killer sniped and killed the murderer, Sheriff Worawee Geller. Director Orenz Rivien has already led people to chase him." As he spoke, he pointed to the direction on the right side of the convoy. Major Antoine Rocha heard the news, and his heart sank directly to the bottom of the valley. Now the only valuable living mouth has also been silenced, and the difficulty of investigating the case will begin to increase exponentially. Captain Archido Martel next to him cursed directly: "These arrogant bastards, why transfer the murderer, FUCK." Major Antoine Rocha understood his feelings, and everyone investigated for five days. Although they did not find the mastermind behind the scenes, they did not kill such an important person alive. Now as soon as these people from the Ministry of Justice take over, they will transfer the murderer and the information. Suddenly, Major Antoine Rocha frowned and his eyelids twitched. He reached out and grabbed Captain Archido Martell, who was about to rush into the block on the right side of the convoy, looking for the killer. Low voice: "Wait, there''s a problem here. The people from the Ministry of Justice just came over and transferred the murderer immediately. We don''t know that the Ministry of Justice is going to transfer the murderer, why would the killer know? And still ambushing here. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 274: predicament Chapter 274 Dilemma Captain Archido Martell also reacted immediately, frowning into a Sichuan word. "You are right, it is not an ordinary clerk who can know in advance that evidence and personnel will be transferred. But now let''s see if we can catch the murderer. After dealing with the matter here, we will analyze it carefully. " Major Antonel Rocha turned his head to look at Captain Archido Martell, nodded and said: "You''re right, let''s solve the immediate problems first. However, we must be careful not to be used as a gun. " Captain Archido Martell understood what the other party meant, nodded and said: "Then I will outflank from the right side, and you will outflank from the left side. We will outflank in two ways to block the murderer inside." After finishing speaking, he was about to leave directly. Upon seeing this, Major Antonel Rosa hurriedly stopped him: "Ten minutes have passed, and we don''t know which direction the enemy is going. Blindly rushing in won''t help." Turning his head and taking a look, the man who was still getting reinforcements said: "We will immediately blockade the entire area and set up checkpoints at major intersections. Everyone is allowed to enter and not to exit. If we find suspicious persons, we will arrest them first." Captain Archido Martell nodded and said: "You''re right, let''s do this. After the entire area is sealed off, we will investigate every household. As long as the killer is still inside, he will definitely not be able to escape." Because this was an emergency and there was no unified commander in chief, Orenz Rivien, the investigation director of the Ministry of Justice, had gone after the murderer again. So, everyone established a command system according to the rank. Major Antonne Rocha, the investigation team leader of the Navy Department, served as the interim commander, and with the cooperation of the Sao Paulo Police Department, he began to blockade the entire area. The blockade had just been established, and Major Antonel Rocha met Orenz Rivien, the investigation director of the Ministry of Justice, on the blockade that had just been encircled. At this time, Director Orenz Livien no longer had the arrogance and strength he had just now. Because of running violently while chasing the enemy, his face was a little flushed, his head was sweating profusely, and he looked very embarrassed. Seeing that Major Antoine Rocha has established a blockade at the intersection, he hurried forward a few steps: "Have you found anyone suspicious?" Major Antoine Rocha shook his head and said: "We have just completed the blockade, and no suspicious persons have been found for the time being. Didn''t you see the murderer? " Director Orenz Rivien shook his head with an ugly expression. "We followed the direction of the gunfire to find the location where the shooter fired. There was only one bullet casing left at the scene, and nothing else was left. " Major Antoine Rosa looked at the director in front of him speechlessly. You didn''t see the murderer, and you didn''t know in which direction the murderer ran, so you just chased after him. Isn''t that a waste of expression? But he definitely couldn''t say that directly, he could only say helplessly: "Then we can only pray now that the enemy will not run out of our blockade. We immediately arranged for people to search every household to see if we could find any suspicious persons. Which Sheriff Wallaway Geller was taken to the hospital? " Major Antoine Rocha did not go to the transfer convoy of the Ministry of Justice to check the situation, so he didn''t know the current situation of the murderer, nor did he know where the murderer''s shot hit. Hearing this question, Director Orlenz Rivien''s face turned blue and then red, looking embarrassed and angry. After a while, he sighed and said: "The gunman was less than 100 meters away from the convoy, and he was shot directly in the head. The prisoner was confirmed dead on the spot." Although it had been expected, Major Antonel Rosa still found it difficult to accept this answer. His tone was serious, his eyes were fixed on Director Orenz Rivien and he said: "Did you prepare for this transfer operation or did you make a temporary decision? How many people are aware of your transfer plans and routes? " Director Orenz Rivien heard this question, but he couldn''t understand what the other party meant. His face was flushed red, and he was about to refute. But meeting the other party''s unyielding eyes, some words were not able to be said after all. "We planned it long ago, and even the St. Paul branch has prepared offices and detention rooms for us in advance. There are quite a few people who know about the transfer plan. The transfer route was decided by me on the spur of the moment, and I didn''t make a plan. I just took the closest route. You don''t need to say more, I know you suspect that some of us have leaked information, I will report it immediately and apply for screening of all of us. But now, everyone must work together to find this killer. " Major Antoine Rocha saw the other party''s expression, and his face was also very ugly. What''s the use of finding the person who leaked the information? The only living person who might know the truth has been killed. How to continue the investigation of the whole case is what he cares most about. I understand in my heart that the most important thing now is to catch the killer, which requires everyone''s cooperation. In the end, I could only take a deep look at the other party, and nodded helplessly. The area that was blocked was very large, and the house-to-house search did not end until midnight, but the result disappointed everyone. Due to the whole day of blockade, the people in the area are very dissatisfied and continue to protest. The city government had to force the investigation team to lift the blockade early the next morning. So far, the case of Fang Lang''s attack hit a bottleneck on the day the Ministry of Justice took over. All members of the investigation team involved in the operation were restricted from moving, pending screening. The meeting room of the Investigation Department of Fangyuan Group. "Minister, the sheriff is dead, and all the materials and evidence have been sealed by the Ministry of Justice. Now they have to conduct internal screening again, and there is no time to investigate at all. " Zhong Ze listened to the intelligence agent''s report, his face turned livid. "It seems that these wastes are hopeless, we can only investigate by ourselves. It turns out that we have no direction yet, but this time it gives us a new direction. The involvement of the Ministry of Justice was very sudden. Why didnt the Ministry of Justice get involved in the investigation when it first happened. instead intervened five days later. Even if they were ordered by the president to investigate, why did the investigation start at this time. Is there any special reason. Also, since it is an investigation, why does the Ministry of Justice withdraw the investigation rights of other departments? Isnt it better for everyone to investigate together? In addition, the investigation is the investigation, why all the materials and personnel related to the case should be transferred. I feel that there is a problem with the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice. Do you think the black hand behind the scenes is within the Ministry of Justice? Maybe someone from the Ministry of Justice. After all, the police department is also under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Justice! If you want to install people in the police system, no one has it easier than the big shots in the Ministry of Justice! " All the intelligence personnel in the conference room nodded, although everyone was not familiar with the situation in Brazil. But as a military command agent, the ability to analyze intelligence has not been lost. "Minister, this is the Brazilian Ministry of Justice! We are so reckless to investigate, if we are found out, will we cause trouble for the boss. " After pondering for a while, Zhong Ze nodded and said: "You are right. Today is different from the past. We are not familiar with the place in Brazil, so we should be more cautious. I will send a telegram to the boss later, report the matter to the boss, and then follow the boss''s order. Everyone is investigating clues, dont give up, we will continue to investigate. This is when we reflect our value, and I hope we can let the boss see our ability. Do you understand? " Everyone agreed in unison: "clear!" Then everyone began to sort out the information files in their hands and left one after another. As Zhong Ze said, everyone knows very well that they are no longer the former military command agents. Fang Lang took them in. They are Fang Lang''s eyes and ears, and they only serve Fang Lang. If the boss is assassinated, if they fail to play any due role, they will lose the meaning of existence. The current job and the blessing of the boss will be lost. This is not acceptable to them. So, even if everyone gave up on continuing to pursue the truth of the matter, they must insist on it. Although they have poor language communication, are unfamiliar with the place, have no law enforcement power, and even have some difficulty in distinguishing the appearance of whites and blacks, they have to overcome it by force. For their inquiries, even many people who were questioned were ignorant of their answers. Everyone had to show some scary ferocity to get some of the answers they wanted. This made him feel less restrained and very passive. At the same time, the order from Fang Lang asked them not to conduct public activities and to conduct secret investigations, which made things even more difficult. So, there is very little they can achieve right now. Just as Zhong Ze walked out of the conference room, a young intelligence agent approached Zhong Ze and said: "Minister, because the Ministry of Justice has transferred all personnel, our contact with Mr. Sebastio Hodges has been interrupted." Zhong Ze turned his head and glanced at the young man beside him. It turned out to be Wu Shanyong, the youngest intelligence agent in his team. Because he is young, he is occasionally inexperienced. The easiest task for him is to keep an eye on the situation of Director Sebastio Hodges. Mr. Director is a scapegoat arranged by the enemy, so there is no need to worry about safety. But as an important party in this case, he is also a very important character, and if he does not do it well, some clues can be found in him. No matter the several investigation teams or their investigation department, they never took their eyes off Director Sebastio Hodges. Their investigation department couldn''t get in touch with Director Sebastio Hodges. Fortunately, Mr. Director still has some friends in the police station, and it happened that he was detained in the police station again. His people were able to contact him, so, through the code words left between Fang Lang and Hodges, his connection with the investigation department has never been broken. With this communication channel, Hodges can answer all the questions the investigation department wants to know. Although the timeliness is far inferior to the official investigation agencies, they are not blind. Wu Shanyong''s words made Zhong Ze frowned, and he understood the current situation. It turned out that Sebastio Hodges could still pass on some information in the police station, but obviously he had no chance when he entered the Ministry of Justice. This news made Zhong Ze even more headache, he shook his head bitterly and said: "I see, let''s investigate the staff of the Ministry of Justice first to see if we can re-establish a communication channel." Wu Shanyong also understood that it was too late to break into the Ministry of Justice, so he could only shake his head helplessly. But Sebastio Hodges, who everyone was concerned about, was very anxious at this time. He was standing in the detention room of the Ministry of Justice, pacing back and forth non-stop. People from the Ministry of Justice thought that he saw Sheriff Worawee Geller was killed, and began to worry about his safety, and did not take his abnormality to heart. (end of this chapter) Chapter 275: major general Chapter 275 Major General After meeting the destroyers who came to meet them in the Atlantic Ocean, after half a month of sailing, the aircraft carrier formation finally arrived on June 10, 1946, at the Natal Naval Base in Brazil. In order to welcome Brazil''s first aircraft carrier, the Brazilian Navy Department organized a grand welcome ceremony. Almost all senior officials of the Ministry of the Navy came to Natal to observe the ceremony. The most important person is the presence of Brazilian President Dutra. The commissioning ceremony of the aircraft carrier was personally presided over by the Minister of Defense, General Morais, who named the aircraft carrier "Rio de Janeiro". Naming this aircraft carrier after the capital shows that Brazil has huge expectations for it. At the same time, the First Fleet was directly renamed "Rio de Janeiro Aircraft Carrier Battle Group". President Dutra personally awarded Fang Lang the rank of Rear Admiral at the ceremony. The Minister of Defense, General Morais, appointed Fang Lang as the commander-in-chief of the "Rio de Janeiro Aircraft Carrier Battle Group" on the spot. The ceremony reached its climax at this moment. The twenty-two-year-old rear admiral directly broke the world record. At this time, even if there are people in the Brazilian army who hold objections, they dare not raise objections in public. After all, this powerful naval fleet was born in the hands of this young man who was only 22 years old. Fang Lang didn''t expect that he would be directly promoted to rear admiral at this important moment. This moment is destined to be the highlight moment in Fang Lang''s life, with milestone significance. Afterwards, Fang Lang learned that his military rank had actually been determined long before he came back. After the Brazilian government completed statistics on the results of the European War, it directly held a grand awarding ceremony at the Ministry of Defense. The Minister of Defense was awarded the rank of Marshal Morais, and all other officers who participated in the European War were promoted according to their military merits. There are five major generals who have obtained the rank of major general, including one from the navy, three from the army, and one from the air force. Naturally, this one from the navy is Fang Lang. The major general of the Air Force is Air Force Minister Nero Mora, which also means that Fang Lang''s military rank is equivalent to that of the Air Force Minister. In fact, the number of aircraft that Fang Lang can now command has reached 150, which is about half of the entire Brazilian Air Force. Unlike the Brazilian Air Force, which only has fighter jets, Fang Lang''s battle group has a complete combat system of reconnaissance planes, fighter jets, bombers, torpedo attack planes, transport planes, etc. This made Air Force Major General Nairo Mora, who came to watch the ceremony, drooling with envy. He has already started to think about how to get in touch with Fang Lang, because he has already heard that Fangyuan Group has established an aircraft modification factory in Sao Paulo. Among them, there are a large number of aircraft designers from Germany. Obviously, the ambition of this aircraft refitting factory is not small, and the production of aircraft must be a matter of time. In the future, the Air Force can also directly entrust this company to design and produce new aircraft for itself! The Secretary of the Navy was also officially held by General Crook, and General Crook was awarded the rank of lieutenant general. This appointment did not surprise Fang Lang. After the ceremony, Fang Lang led a group of officials from the Ministry of National Defense to board the aircraft carrier for a visit. That night, a grand party was held on the deck of the aircraft carrier that had been emptied of aircraft. As the supreme officer of the Natal Naval Base, the commander of the freshly released "Rio de Janeiro Aircraft Carrier Battle Group", the captain of the aircraft carrier, and the rear admiral. Fang Lang is the well-deserved protagonist tonight. For a while, there were a lot of drinks, and people kept coming up with wine glasses to clink with Fang Lang to congratulate him. Fang Lang also politely expressed his thanks one by one. Fortunately, he was very restrained. Every time he clinked glasses, he just took a sip, otherwise he would definitely get drunk. If this is the case, his image in everyone''s mind will be greatly affected. The party lasted until ten o''clock in the evening. When Fang Lang sent everyone off the aircraft carrier one by one, a young man in a suit and leather shoes came to Fang Lang and said softly: "Your Excellency, Mr. President, I hope to have a chat with you alone." Fang Lang felt a little different about this sudden invitation. Because as President Dutra''s position has become more and more stable, he has less and less management of military work. I didn''t expect to invite myself suddenly today. Fang Lang looked up at the sky, and said doubtfully: "now?" The other party nodded, and pointed to a driveway by the pier: "Your Excellency, this way please!" Fang Lang could only nod his head and keep up with the opponent. Fang Lang didn''t know where the president lived after he arrived in Natal. After all, these were not arranged by him, and he only returned to Brazil today. The vehicle stopped and went all the way, and came to a manor on the outskirts of Natal. Fang Lang was still wondering why the president lived in a manor in Natal. When he came to the gate of the manor, he found that the mayor of Natal, Ewald Dursley, was waiting at the gate. He made up his mind, it seems that this is the home of Mayor Ewald Dursley. After getting off the car, Mayor Ewald Dursley stepped forward to shake hands with Fang Lang, and led Fang Lang into the room. "Your Excellency, this way please, Mr. President is waiting for you." Fang Lang was not polite to him, and it was not a day or two for the two of them to deal with each other. shook hands with him, nodded and said: "Thank you! Mr. Mayor." The two exchanged a few pleasantries, and Fang Lang was directed to a not-so-large living room. The living room was decorated in a very Brazilian style. On the wall behind the sofa, an Indian''s feather crown looked very eye-catching. President Dutra heard the movement and got up and walked towards the door. Fang Lang was at the door, and he stood at attention and saluted: "Mr. President, good evening!" President Dutra took the initiative to extend his right hand to Fang Lang, and Fang Lang quickly extended his right hand to be with him tightly. Then the president hugged Fang Lang and said: "Good evening, Major General Fang." After the two embraced, President Dutra pointed to the sofa and motioned for the two to sit down and chat. Fang Lang was not polite, and found a sofa to sit down. A servant brought two cups of hot coffee and placed them in front of them. Mayor Ewald Dursley, after the servant left, said: "Mr. President and His Excellency General chat slowly, I will be outside, if necessary, call at any time." Fang Lang nodded at him, and after seeing him close the door, he turned to look at President Dutra. See President Dutra said with a smile on his face: "Fang, I was surprised when I arrived in Natal this time. The change is really too big. This is completely different from what I saw when I came here during the war. The streets are all paved with cement, which looks very tidy. Even the slums have been demolished, and there are no homeless people on the road, which is really unexpected. I heard from Mayor Ewald Dursley that it was all your fault. It was a plan made during the period of military control, isn''t it? " Fang Lang was taken aback for a moment, he didn''t expect that Ewald Dursley would give this credit to himself. This was beyond Fang Lang''s expectation. However, Fang Lang''s character is still more used to modesty, so he smiled and said: "I just provided some suggestions, and the specific operations are all from Mayor Ewald Dursley and government staff. I can''t take credit for that. You know, after the war, I have been moving around in Europe and America, and I spent very little time in Brazil. There is no time for urban planning in Natal. " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, President Dutra smiled and said: "Okay! I see, this is the result of your joint efforts. Didnt expect that you not only have superb commanding skills in the military, Even in building the local economy, they will have such advanced thinking. I dont know if you are interested in working with my staff! " Fang Lang''s hand reaching for the coffee cup stopped directly in mid-air, looking at President Dutra in disbelief. Seeing Fang Lang''s expression, President Dutra burst out laughing. "Haha General Fang, this is just a proposal, not a mandatory requirement, so don''t be nervous. I know that you have just become a general, and you will not be willing to come over to serve as my staff. However, I appreciate your advanced thinking on economic construction. I hope you will not confine your thinking to the military field. Can you provide some suggestions for Brazil''s economic development and construction? " Hearing President Dutra''s words, Fang Lang said with a sigh of relief: "Mr. President, I have given you the honor. If you don''t think my thoughts are vulgar, I will know everything and say everything." Opposite him is the President of Brazil, and nothing he says can be aimless. I said it was a proposal, but maybe I really have such an idea. But maybe I saw what I was thinking in my heart, so I just laughed it off. But Fang Lang knew Brazil''s national conditions very well in his heart, and he would never learn from President Dutra and leave the army to enter the political arena. Even if it is to become the president of Brazil, what good results will there be! President Dutra is still good, and his four-year term has passed smoothly. His previous president, Vargas, was overthrown by a coup and almost died. In the next presidential election, Vargas will continue to run and win the election, but what is the result? In less than two years, he was forced to commit suicide by drinking a bullet. More people were prosecuted for corruption and bribery after leaving office, jailed, and ruined. Based on Brazil''s national conditions, there are no officials who are not corrupt. Everyone is corrupt, and you, Mr. President, are high-spirited, who would be willing to be your confidant. I''m afraid everyone has to worry about whether they will be sent to prison by you! Is a president who doesnt even have a confidant still a president? If you choose to live with the light, you must be prepared to be sent to prison by your political opponents. No matter how you look at it, the President of Brazil is a triad. Whoever likes to sit sits, anyway, Fang Lang is not interested. How cool it is to be a big warlord with military power in his hands. No matter who is the president, he can only win over himself, and dare not make irresponsible remarks about himself. Although the president is the supreme commander of the army in name, that is only a name. The real military power has always been in the hands of the powerful faction below, and Fang Lang can be regarded as a real powerful faction now. Especially after his military rank was officially promoted to major general, he can be regarded as the decision-making level of the Brazilian army. You can express your opinion on many issues. For the sake of his powerful strength, everyone has to seriously consider his ideas. "Okay, if General Fang has any ideas or suggestions, you must tell me. In Congress a few days ago, representatives of the National League submitted a policy bill on relaxing the legal status of Chinese immigrants in Brazil. After voting by the Legislative Council, it passed with 65% of the votes in favor. I also voted for this bill. After all, I have seen a lot of excellent characters about Chinese people from General Fang. You are brave, courageous, hard-working, studious, pragmatic and law-abiding, which is exactly what we need in Brazil. " President Dutra was sincere and looked at Fang Langdao seriously. Hearing what the other party said, Fang Lang instantly understood the reason why Mr. President summoned him late at night today. (end of this chapter) Chapter 276: political influence Chapter 276 Political Influence Fang Lang did not expect that the bill that was communicated with the National League in Sao Paulo last time had been submitted to the Legislative Council for discussion so soon. At the beginning, we only talked about some general content, and the detailed rules have not yet been discussed! When did these guys become so efficient? No wonder President Dutra summoned him late at night. Anyone who is not stupid can see the relationship between this bill and himself. It seems that the other party has taken a fancy to his huge influence on the National League and the Social Democratic Party, and wants to come over to make friends. After all, it is not an easy matter for a policy bill aimed solely at Chinese immigrants to obtain a support rate of 65% in a Legislative Council with no Chinese at all. This shows that Fangyuan Group has gained huge political influence in Brazil through its rapid economic development in the past two years. Fang Lang''s identity is no longer a simple admiral, but a representative of a capital consortium that has a strong influence on Brazilian politics. Fang Lang has always warmly welcomed those who want to be friends with him. What''s more, the other party is the President of Brazil. Or you just want to express your dissatisfaction with your own practices. But since the other party told himself that he voted for it, he had already expressed his attitude. Explanation should not be looking for trouble, the possibility of making friends should be greater. "Thank you, Mr. President, for your recognition of our Chinese. Also thank the Legislative Council for its strong support for our Chinese immigrants. I believe that with such a policy and your support, we Chinese will be able to integrate into the life of Brazil soon and contribute our strength to the prosperity of Brazil. " Now Fang Lang has also seen big scenes, no matter whether President Dutra''s words are true or not, he must show an attitude. So it was just a diplomatic rhetoric thrown out. President Dutra laughed after hearing Fang Lang''s words, took a sip of coffee, and then said seriously: I welcome the integration of Chinese into Brazil. Moreover, I also hope to see more Chinese stand up and speak out bravely. We must know that Brazil is a democratic country, and freedom and equality have always been our relentless pursuit. Of course, there are still many feudal remnants in Brazil now. We must completely eradicate these backward, ignorant and outdated diseases. " Fang Lang was analyzing the meaning behind the sentence while listening to Mr. President''s words. I havent seen you for a while, President Dutra has obviously begun to adapt to his role as a politician, and his speech is no longer as straightforward as before. At least Fang Lang needs to analyze what he is saying to him now in order to understand roughly what the other party wants to express. Democratic country, eradicating feudal remnants, is this why Mr. President summoned himself today? But what the **** is this telling me, I''m a rear admiral. Wouldn''t it be to reform the army? Reform should not be discussed with myself! Fang Lang couldn''t figure out for a while, what President Dutra wanted to express, he could only follow Mr. President''s words: "Mr. President is right, we must fight against the backward and ignorant feudal ideology. As the admiral of the navy, his subordinates must resolutely obey the orders of the president. " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, President Dutra smiled and said: "Fang, don''t get me wrong, there is no military action. Let me tell you this! Our current presidential system in Brazil does not conform to the image of our democratic country in Brazil. You also often travel to the United States, so you should know what the American presidential system is like. That is the model of democracy, so I want to learn the advanced political system of the United States. Limit the power of the president to avoid another dictator who abuses his power. " Fang Lang was a little dazed by President Dutra''s words, what do you mean? Is this because you think your power is too great and you want to decentralize it? Study in the United States? How thoroughly have you been brainwashed by the United States? No wonder Americans support you so much. However, Fang Lang also had to admire President Dutra. After all, there are not many people who can take the initiative to weaken their power. But these things, you and I, the navy, can''t talk about it! Wait, this is to use their influence on the National League and the Social Democratic Party to promote the passage of this bill. There is no need to push this kind of thing! Who would reject a president who wants to decentralize power? The power of the president is less, so the power in everyone''s hands is greater? Unless he wants to be this centralized president. Soon Fang Lang understood where the resistance was. President Vargas, who is preparing to participate in the next presidential election, and the Labor Party he formed. Fang Lang didn''t expect that one day Mr. President would seek his own support in order to limit the president''s rights. This is really unexpected. As a capitalist, Brazil''s emerging consortium still welcomes the US political system. After all, it was originally a political system to protect capitalists! A fool would refuse! Of course, the detailed rules still need to be inquired clearly. Then the two had an open and honest discussion on Brazil''s future political system. Fang Lang highly praised President Dutra for voluntarily giving up his power and resolutely implementing the political system of separation of powers. Mr. President also highly affirmed the vision of Mr. Rear Admiral. The talks were conducted in a sincere and friendly atmosphere. The two sides quickly reached a consensus. Historically, President Dutra did issue a new constitution in September 1946. While the presidency remains the primary institution, the office is subject to many restrictions that prevent future leaders from abusing their power. The new constitution establishes a system of three powers in the government and guarantees the independence and freedom of Congress in electing members. This night, the two sides had too long to discuss, and Fang Lang had no choice but to live in the manor together under the arrangement of Mayor Ewald Dursley. Early the next morning, Fang Lang had breakfast with President Dutra before leaving the manor. Until he left, President Dutra said apologetically: "Fang, regarding your attack in Sao Paulo, there is still no investigation result, I am sorry!" Fang Lang knew what Dutra meant, and apparently apologized for the self-defeating thing after arranging the Ministry of Justice to enter. But President Dutra cannot be blamed for this matter. To say that President Dutra arranged for the Ministry of Justice to intervene in the investigation must be out of good intentions. After all, he couldn''t be the murderer. If he wanted to kill himself, he wouldn''t arrange such a method at all. "Mr. President, this matter is none of your business. We are not professional in the investigation, so we should give you more time, and I believe the truth will come to light sooner or later. " Fang Lang already knew in his heart that this case was not so easy to solve. The investigation had no results, which was also expected by Fang Lang. Rather than trusting other people''s investigations, it is better to investigate them himself, so he is ready to take the time to return to Sao Paulo to investigate. President Dutra didn''t see any problems from Fang Lang''s expression, and thought that Fang Lang had already had his own guess about who the murderer was. Hold Fang Lang''s hand, squeezed it, and said with a serious expression: "If you have a suspicious target in your heart, don''t hide it. You can say it so that the investigators can find another direction of investigation." Feeling the strength of Mr. President''s hand, Fang Lang''s heart moved, he smiled and said: "I was ambushed once by the Japanese using similar means in the United States. But I managed to escape. But this time there is too little evidence, and I really can''t judge. " "What, such a big thing happened. Why didnt you hear the report from the Ministry of Defense. " Dutra did not expect that another case would be asked. Fang Lang shook his head with a smile and said: "My friend discovered the clues of that incident in advance, so the FBI in the United States deliberately set up a trap to lure the enemy out, and did not cause me any harm. So, I did not report this matter. " "This is not allowed, Major General Fang, you are an important officer of our Brazilian Navy, your safety is related to our national defense security, and there must be no negligence. Now that you are a general, I will suggest to the Ministry of National Defense to raise your guard level by one level, and the guard organization will be raised to the company level. In this way, your travel safety can be guaranteed. These **** Japanese, it is not enough for us to create a violent tragedy that hit the presidential palace in Brazil. dare to attack our senior officers of the Brazilian Navy. I think it is necessary for us to list the Japanese as the least popular group in Brazil. " President Dutra immediately put forward his opinion. It can be seen from this that the president is indeed very concerned about Fang Lang''s safety, and this is definitely not a concern for an army general. After all, being a soldier and fighting a war is justified. It is a profession in which you put your head on your belt to fight for wealth. How can you pursue safety. Mr. President must be concerned about the political influence of the Fangyuan Group behind Fang Lang. After the discussion last night, the two have reached an agreement, and now they can be regarded as political allies. Of course, the president does not want to support his political allies, and his life safety is threatened. For Dutra to list the Japanese as the most unpopular group of people, it is at best a cheap propaganda tool. Is it possible to write this sentence into the constitution? Of course, Fang Lang is very happy to be able to raise Fang Lang''s security level by one level and directly upgrade the organization of the security platoon to the security company. This is the bodyguard assigned by the Brazilian government. Of course, the more the better. But this was not enough, Fang Lang rolled his eyes, smiled and said to Mr. President: "Thank you, Mr. President, for your concern. I am a soldier. I am not nervous about my personal safety now. However, I am still very concerned about the safety of my family. After all, this time I was attacked in the United States. According to the interrogation records of the FBI in the United States, those Japanese suspected that I attacked some temple of them when I was an occupying force in Japan. This is nonsense at all, I suspect they are because I took over the artillery factory from the American occupation forces. They didn''t dare to trouble the Americans, so they blamed me. " "This artillery factory is now producing artillery for us in Brazil, so be careful. Fangyuan Group is an indispensable part of our national defense industry. The safety of your family is also related to our national defense security in Brazil. See if it is necessary for us to send guards to the Fangyuan Group. " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, President Dutra understood that Fang Lang had a request to make. But I don''t know what he wants, so I can only test it out. Fang Lang listened to Dutra''s words, smiled and said: "Thank you, Mr. President, for your concern. Fangyuan Group is a private company. If the country needs to send security forces, it may cause some unnecessary troubles. My idea is to hope that the government can approve the Fangyuan Group to set up a private military company to build its own security team to protect the safety of the factory and my family. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 277: military contract Chapter 277 Military Contracting Regarding Fang Lang''s request, President Dutra waved his hand noncommittally: "What''s the matter? Isn''t it just a security company? Brazil already has it! There is no difficulty at all, you only need to submit an application to the local government! " Of course Fang Lang also knows that ordinary security companies will not have any obstacles to the establishment of Fangyuan Group and Fang Lang''s background. But of course what Fang Lang wants to establish is not this kind of small company. So he coughed twice and said: "Mr. President, I am not talking about ordinary security companies. You also know that our Fangyuan Group now has some military industries, such as artillery factories and light weapons factories, and may enter the field of heavy weapon manufacturing in the future. These equipments often need to be tested when they are manufactured, and then improved according to the actual combat effect. So, I want to set up a military contracting company similar to a mercenary organization. I hope this company can undertake some orders to perform military missions around the world. Some big businessmen I know in the United States, they have some mines in Africa and the Middle East, and they are often attacked. So, some transferred veterans were recruited in the United States to protect the safety of their factories. In the process of communicating with Shata Company, I also heard that many people who purchase weapons and equipment from them have corresponding orders. I am wondering if we can set up such a military contracting company in Brazil to undertake some foreign military orders. " President Dutra was a soldier. After hearing Fang Lang''s words, he immediately understood what he meant. In fact, this is a private army. For any country, it is unacceptable for any country to have such a military force that is not under its own control. So, President Dutra''s face is tangled: "This is not a trivial matter. If there is such a force in Brazil, it may make many people feel uneasy." Fang Lang didn''t want to eat into a big fat man in one go, so he said quickly: "Please rest assured, Mr. President, this is my future plan for this company. Don''t worry! We only undertake some basic security tasks for this company in the early stage. And we can guarantee that we will only undertake security tasks in Brazil in the future. We only undertake foreign missions for all military operations. In China, we mainly conduct military training. " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Dutra thought about it seriously. If it is true what Fang Lang said, only build a training base in China, and put all the mission objectives abroad, there is nothing wrong with it. After all, there has always been a tradition of mercenaries in the West. Their Brazilian expeditionary force is actually not too different from mercenaries, except that the US government hired them from the Brazilian government. Considering the good relationship he had just established with Fang Lang, Dutra did not directly refuse, but said tactfully: "I think you can set up an ordinary security company first. Security companies set up training camps in China to train the company''s security personnel in professional skills. I don''t think there is any problem. As for the security company undertaking the weapon testing work, it is of course within the normal scope of business. If you really received a mission to go abroad to perform paramilitary operations, the content of your contract can also be a security contract! As for what will happen abroad, who can say for sure? " Fang Lang understood President Dutra''s meaning as soon as he heard it. The other party wanted him to play around the corner. Ordinary security companies can only conduct some light weapon training, but after undertaking the weapon testing task of the military industrial group, how to use heavy firepower training can be called weapon testing. When performing paramilitary missions abroad, the company only signs security contracts. After going abroad, the customer encounters an incident, and the employees work changes accordingly, which is not the security companys business. Although Fang Lang was a little disappointed, he also understood that Mr. President had already let himself play around. He can''t push too much. Nodding helplessly, he said: "I see, Mr. President." Fang Lang, who left the manor, was on the car back to the base, constantly thinking about whether he should really set up an ordinary security company according to what Mr. President said, and then play around. How to play this edge ball is more appropriate. All the way back to the base office without a word, I heard Qi Qingshan report that General Clark asked to see him. "Haha Fang, congratulations!" Fang Lang''s relationship with Clark is quite close now, so it seems very casual. "Uncle Clark, didn''t you already congratulate yesterday?" Clark looked at Fang Lang''s expression, and said in confusion: "What? It doesn''t look like the mood you should have just been promoted!" looked up at General Clark, thought about the identity of the other party, Fang Lang''s eyes lit up and said: "Uncle, if you are hired by me like this, the US government won''t take care of it, right?" Clark was taken aback by this strange question. "What do you mean! Of course the U.S. government has no right to control me about what kind of work we do after we retire. This is my freedom." Fang Lang looked at General Clark sitting in front of him, and cursed himself for being confused, why did he set up some military contracting company in Brazil! Don''t you already have a ready-made business? "Uncle, I want to set up a private armed company in the United States and transfer all your contracts to this company. Then sign with the Brazilian Defense Ministry, do you think it is feasible? " After listening to Fang Lang''s words, General Clark did not answer immediately, but after thinking about it, he said: "Private armed company?" The more Fang Lang thinks about it now, the more he feels that this idea is good. The biggest advantage of setting up a company in the United States is the background of American capital. When you go abroad, everyone will see that you are an American company, and you must have a completely different attitude from seeing that you are a Brazilian company. Moreover, it is easier for American companies to receive business orders from the United States. How many military orders can Brazil have? Fortunately, President Dutra did not directly promise himself. Only then did I find the right direction. "You see that you are now directly hired by us to serve as our consultants. It is because of my relationship with you that it is easy to find a complete team like you. What about other countries and individuals? At this time, there is a professional private force contracting company, can it solve this problem well! We can dilute the political influence in some military cooperation through this purely commercial behavior. Just like the Shata Company, it has turned the sale of decommissioned military equipment into a commercial activity. Do you see what I mean? " General Clark looked at Fang Lang suspiciously and said: "Why did you suddenly think of setting up this kind of company? Don''t you have a security department?" "The main reason is that I was attacked in Sao Paulo this time. Although there was no danger. But I still worry about the safety of my family, so I want to recruit some professional security personnel. But pure security personnel, it is estimated that it will be difficult to make a difference in the face of the intensity of the attack we encountered last time. Therefore, I thought of setting up a paramilitary team to perform security tasks. I just met you, and I thought that maybe we can do something bigger, and receive some business from the Ministry of National Defense of various countries, which is not convenient for the official to come forward. It''s like the business of our naval advisory group. What do you think? " The more Fang Lang thought about it, the more he felt that it was feasible. Thinking about the American Blackwater of later generations, didn''t he rely on the background of an American company to receive orders from the US Department of Defense and grow stronger? If I really set up a Brazilian military contracting company, it is estimated that the possibility of receiving orders from the US Department of Defense is very small. General Clark pondered for a while before saying: "It''s not impossible, but there are not many orders for this kind of business now. And if you want to undertake this kind of business, you have to find a few big shots to cooperate. " "Haha. I understand that this kind of business must have a background before it can continue. I think the cooperation method of Shata Company is very suitable, right? Wait, what do you think if I invite Mr. Morgan to take a stake? " Considering my identity and background, setting up such a company in the United States may not be a problem in the early stage, but as the business expands in the later stage, the companys influence will become larger, and people will be kicked out. Then my work is not in vain, so it is very necessary for me to find a powerful partner who will not kick me away. Given the strength of the Morgan family in the United States, no one should be able to shake it! "What Mr. Morgan, are you related to the Morgan family?" General Clark never expected that the young man in front of him would actually be connected with the largest consortium in the United States, the Morgan Consortium. So, after Fang Lang mentioned that the La Morgan family joined the group, the shocked expression on his face could not be concealed at all. Regarding the cooperative relationship between himself and the Morgan family, Fang Lang will not hide it. So, he nodded without hesitation and said: "Of course, I have a very good relationship with Mr. Morgan, and there are many business cooperations." Hearing the affirmative answer, Clark had to seriously look at the young man in front of him again. "If this is the case, I think this business can be done. With such a background, and recruiting a few big names from the top of the military to join, the future of this company is limitless. " Fang Lang looked at General Clark in front of him with a smile and said: "Then, is uncle interested in serving as the general manager of the new company?" General Clark didn''t expect that Fang Lang would want him to be the general manager of this new company. After thinking for a while, he said: "Is my qualifications not enough to support such a company?" "Uncle, you are a retired rear admiral, although there are many U.S. rear admirals now. But we are our own. I believe that with the support of me and Mr. Morgan, if you come forward to form the company yourself, no one should dare to object to this! " Fang Lang encouraged with an expression of "I believe in you." General Clark came here to continue completing his teaching tasks, but Fang Lang didn''t expect that Fang Lang would suddenly make such a request. He was completely unprepared for this matter, and he didn''t know whether he should agree directly or not. Fang Lang saw General Clark''s hesitation, and continued: "Uncle, think about it, our naval advisory group, after this contract is over, are you going to start looking for jobs again! If we set up a company and re-sign with everyone, everyone will become our long-term employees. Even after the contract expires, we can still find new orders so that everyone will not lose their jobs, right? " Actually, many countries in the world now want to purchase US warships. If training agreements can be signed with these purchasing countries, this company will not lack business orders at all. After much consideration, General Clark finally nodded in agreement with Fang Lang''s proposal. Began to set up God''s Whip Military Contracting Company. In the early stage, the company''s main business was to undertake security tasks for the protection of important personnel, and military training tasks for land, sea and air. (end of this chapter) Chapter 278: tacit understanding Chapter 278 tacit understanding What Fang Lang didn''t know was that when he was discussing the establishment of a military contracting company with General Clark, there was a person in the naval base who was fidgeting like an ant on a hot pot. Even participating in the training of the Marine Corps, he seemed absent-minded, and finally made it to the noon break. After Colonel Waldo Grama asked for leave from the US chief instructor in charge of training, he rushed to the headquarters building of the naval base. "Boss, Colonel Valdo Granma of the Marine Corps, please see me." Qi Qingshan knocked on Fang Lang''s office door, interrupting the discussion between Fang Lang and General Clark that lasted all morning. Hearing that it was Colonel Valdo Grama''s visit, Fang Lang''s mouth curled up, and he still didn''t understand what happened. It seems that Miss Ianna Siti is really impatient! After knowing Mr. Colonel''s address, he immediately contacted Mr. Colonel. General Clark saw Fang Lang''s expression, and knew that this little fox was plotting against others again. Shaking his head with a smile, he got up and said goodbye to Fang Lang. "Tomorrow I will fly back to the United States and start implementing the plan we discussed." Fang Lang smiled and said: "I will send a telegram to Wan Chongxin of Universal Group later, asking him to cooperate with you to complete the establishment of the company as soon as possible. As for the bigwigs of the Ministry of Defense, it''s going to take a lot of trouble for you. I will also send a telegram to Mr. Morgan to explain to him that if you need help, you can go to him. " General Clark nodded solemnly, and when he walked out of the office, he didn''t forget to turn around and salute Fang Lang. Colonel Valdo Granma knew the identity of General Clark. He was shocked to see a U.S. major general saluting Fang Lang, so he quickly cleared up his mood and began to organize his clothes. When Qi Qingshan notified him that he could go in, he cautiously pushed open Fang Lang''s office door with anxiety. After entering the room, Colonel Valdo Grama saw Fang Lang standing at the door waiting for him. Quickly stood at attention and saluted: "Your Excellency, good afternoon!" Fang Lang seemed very enthusiastic this time. After returning a military salute casually, he pointed to the sofa in the reception area and said: "Colonel Granma, come in quickly and sit here. I''m really sorry, I''m busy with business during this time, so I don''t have a chance to have a good chat with you. I went to the United States again this time, and I really couldnt get away. " Colonel Valdo Grama looked very cautious this time, not at all as casual as when he entered Fang Lang''s office for the first time. After hearing Fang Lang''s words, he stood at attention and said: "Your Excellency, General, is busy with work, and it is your subordinates who have caused you trouble!" Fang Lang heard him say that he was causing trouble for himself, so he smiled and didn''t answer, but changed the subject and said: "Yesterday I had a chat with the Secretary of the Navy, General Crook, about Marine Corps training, and the Secretary heard that I arranged for Colonel Granmar to attend basic training for the Marine Corps. gave me serious criticism, thinking it was a distrust of a veteran. As a colonel and officer, you shouldn''t have some basic training with ordinary soldiers, and you don''t even have time to go home to spend time with your family. You really shouldn''t. Here I also want to conduct a deep review and apologize to Mr. Colonel. How about this! Starting this afternoon, Mr. Colonel will not continue to participate in the basic training of the Marine Corps. I have organized an office for you on the second floor of the headquarters. From now on, Mr. Colonel will start working in the office. what do you think? " Colonel Valdo Grama heard Fang Lang say that he had no time to spend with his family, and his heart skipped a beat. How could this keep him from participating in training! Isnt this just a reminder to yourself, be careful not to let your family know about the existence of Ms. Yianna Siti? quickly got up and said: "Your Excellency, you are too serious. Participating in the basic training of the Marine Corps is voluntary for subordinates. I didn''t expect that you would be misunderstood by General Crook. It was really the mistake of the subordinates. Please rest assured that the subordinates will explain clearly to General Crook in person. " Fang Lang smiled and shook his head, now that I hold your handle in my hand, it doesn''t matter whether you participate in the training of the Marine Corps or not. The so-called general Crook''s blame was nothing more than Fang Lang''s casual remarks. General Crook doesn''t care how life is in the Navy for you, Colonel Valdo Granma! As long as this Marine Corps is not controlled by someone from the Army like you. "There is no need for an explanation, I have already explained it clearly to General Crook. Mr. Colonel is not young, and it is really not suitable to continue to participate in the basic training of the Marine Corps. Working in an office can be easier, right? As for the training of the Marine Corps, just let the battalion commanders below handle it by themselves. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Colonel Valdo Grama''s mouth was bitter, and he understood the meaning of Fang Lang''s words. The training is handed over to the battalion commander below. Don''t worry too much as the brigade commander yourself. Since the training is assigned to the battalion commander below, the battalion commander is of course responsible for the usual management. I just need to sit on it, read the documents and drink coffee. Thinking about the head of the main force of the army, he was already a lieutenant colonel when the major general in front of him was still a soldier. But now? Others are major generals and their immediate superiors. I was kicked to work under someone else''s subordinate. Originally, he wanted to take advantage of his status as an old officer to take over the role of the host, control the military power of this marine corps, and use the navy''s military expenses to develop an armored force of his own. Let his father-in-law look at him with admiration. Unexpectedly, he had a bad start. As soon as he came to the Marine Corps, he was severely educated, letting him know why the sea is so blue. After finally adapting to the training rhythm of the Marine Corps, I want to establish an image in the Marine Corps of sharing weal and woe. was called back to sit in the office again, which made him realize how deep the sea is. The most important thing is that a telegram from the United States made him discover that his little secret had been held by the young officer in front of him. This is the secret that can make you lose everything! I had to humbly accept all the arrangements made by the officer in front of me. Otherwise, he believed that he would be able to taste how bitter the sea water is. "Yes, sir, I obey orders!" Colonel Valdo Grama, who had no way to resist, finally chose to accept the path arranged by Fang Lang. In just a few words, the two sides reached a tacit agreement. Some words are too clear to be said. Colonel Valdo Grama knows what he should do in the future. For the Marine Corps, he only needs to be the commander-in-chief in name. The actual power is delegated to the five battalion commanders under him, which means that the power of the Marine Corps is firmly in Fang Lang''s hands. The officer in his early twenties in front of him had to admire his skills. I dont even have to admit defeat if I want to. Fang Lang smiled with satisfaction when he heard Colonel Valdo Grama expressing his obedience to his order. Patted the other party''s shoulder and said: "What Mr. Colonel told me last time, about the use of armored forces, I think is very insightful. Although the Ministry of the Navy is currently short of military expenditures, it is unable to purchase armored vehicles to form an armored force. However, we must also plan ahead and familiarize ourselves with and study the strategies and tactics of the amphibious landing operations of the Marine Corps armored forces in advance. I would like to hand this job over to Colonel Valdo Granma. I wonder if Mr. Colonel would like to? " Colonel Valdo Grama was obviously taken aback, didn''t he want to make himself a puppet? Why do I feel that I have insight into the use of armored forces, and let myself study amphibious landing tactics. You can study amphibious tactics, but if you dont have the money to buy armored vehicles, how can you do it? By fantasy? Colonel Valdo Grama, who didn''t quite understand what Fang Lang meant, looked at Fang Lang hesitantly. But when Fang Lang asked him if he was willing, he could only bite the bullet and say: "Of course I am willing. I will resolutely carry out the orders of Your Excellency the General." Although he didn''t know what Fang Lang meant, he knew that no matter what job Fang Lang arranged for him, he could only continue. Because he didn''t have the confidence to refuse Fang Lang''s order. He couldn''t bear the consequences of rejecting Fang Lang. Seeing Colonel Valdo Grama''s expression, Fang Lang smiled and didn''t expose it. directly said: "Mr. Colonel, don''t worry, although we don''t have armored troops yet, we have two tank landing ships presented by the Americans in our fleet. I mean, I want to hand over the command of the two tank landing ships to Colonel Valdo Grama. With these two tank landing ships, Mr. Colonel can also be targeted when studying the amphibious landing operations of armored forces. What do you think, Mr. Colonel? " For Colonel Valdo Grama, who was ready to be a puppet, this can be regarded as an unexpected surprise. As an army, he actually doesn''t know what a tank landing ship is. But having troops that can be commanded is completely different from sitting on the bench. What''s more, this ship is still called a tank landing ship, and it must be related to tank landing operations. What more can you ask for! So, at this moment, Colonel Valdo Grama felt that Fang Lang in front of him became less scary. For Fang Lang, since his fleet cannot have armored forces for the time being, the two tank landing ships are of no value. Instead of stopping in the sea every day waiting for him to rust, it is better to use waste, which gave Colonel Valdo Grama a little hope. As for Colonel Valdo Grama, who has two tank landing ships, will he pose any threat to Fanglang. Fang Lang is not worried at all. First of all, these two warships are already his people. I can order them to obey the orders of Colonel Valdo Grama. But if Mr. Colonel wants to harm himself, he will probably be overthrown by the crew. Even if Colonel Valdo Grama can really completely control the two landing ships, he will not be able to pose any threat to Fanglang. Because the tank landing ship of this period and the amphibious assault ship of later generations are two completely different concepts. The current tank landing ship is actually a transport ship for transporting tanks to land. Combat power is almost nothing. Colonel Valdo Grama stood up a little excitedly and saluted directly: "Obey, sir, thank you, General, for your trust." Looking at Colonel Valdo Grama who was a little excited, Fang Lang thought to himself, after you see the two tank landing ships, just don''t jump up and scold your mother. Actually, Fang Lang didn''t kill him quickly. After slapping him, he still gave him a sweet date. After all, he still needs the other party to continue to be the commander of the amphibious marine corps, and help his own people to occupy the position first. Fang Lang returned the gift and patted Colonel Valdo Grama''s arm as a sign of encouragement. Mr. Colonel knew that he should leave too, so he got up and asked Fang Lang to resign. Fang Lang nodded, and just as Colonel Valdo Grama was about to walk out of the office door, he suddenly remembered something and said: "By the way, I''m in the seaside villa area of ??Natal City. I have someone prepare a villa. I will send you the key today." (end of this chapter) Chapter 279: infectious disease Chapter 279 Infectious Diseases Colonel Valdo Grama was shocked, turned his head, and looked at Fang Lang in disbelief. It wasn''t that he was shocked that Fang gave him such a valuable thing. Instead, Fang Lang was puzzled by the fact that the two had just reached an agreement tacitly, and Fang Lang immediately threw out such a thing. His eyes seemed to be questioning Fang Lang, what else do you want to do? Fang Lang looked at the other party''s expression, smiled and said: "Mr. Colonel, don''t get me wrong, we are comrades-in-arms. This property was seized by us when we wiped out the cancerous Yakub family in Natal, and it was given to you as a gift. As for what you plan to do with it, it is your freedom. " The meaning expressed is very clear. Now that everyone has reached an agreement, we are friends. This house is just a gift for a friend. Colonel Valdo Grama thought a little too much, thinking that the other party wanted to let him use this house to house Miss Ianna Siti. Continue to blackmail him with Miss Ianna Siti! Actually, he hasn''t figured it out yet, the current state is actually the most beneficial to Fanglang. Fang Lang didn''t mean to test him, if Colonel Valdo Grama really brought the blond big wave to Natal to live. He had to consider the candidate for the new Marine Corps commander in advance. You cant wait for Colonel Valdo Grama to be caught off guard after his car overturns and he is abandoned! Staring at Fang Lang for a long while, he found that Fang Lang''s behavior did not seem to have other meanings, so Colonel Valdo Grama nodded to Fang Lang and said: "Thank you for the gift, sir." Then pushed the door and walked out. Colonel Valdo Grama, who walked out of Fang Lang''s office, had a bitter face, knowing that he had been completely manipulated by Fang Lang. After sighing lightly, he chose to accept his fate. Fang Lang, who had just sent Colonel Valdo Grama away, didn''t have much mood to care about his mood at the moment. He is poring over a document on his desk. When I first watched it, I didn''t pay much attention to it. The more I looked at Fang Lang, the more ugly his face became. It has only been a long time since I recruited the American advisory group to Natal, and this happened. Picked up the phone on the table and called Qi Qingshan in. "Gyeongsan, call me military medical officer Danilo Huber immediately." Qi Qingshan didn''t understand why Fang Lang''s face was so ugly, he thought it was Colonel Valdo Grama who made Fang Lang unhappy. But Fang Lang suddenly asked the military medical officer to report to him, which still surprised Qi Qingshan, and hurriedly said: "Boss, is there something uncomfortable for you?" Fang Lang shook his head, continued to look at the contents of the document, and said without raising his head: "It''s business, hurry up and tell Medical Officer Danilo Huber to come and see me." Qi Qingshan was relieved when he heard that it wasn''t Fang Lang who was unwell, and hurriedly took orders to leave. After a while, he took Danilo Huber, the medical officer of the First Fleet, to Fang Lang''s office. The First Fleet is a naval force with tens of thousands of people, but the formation of military doctors is not large. There is only one battalion-level unit, which is under the jurisdiction of the Logistics Department. Major Danilo Huber is the commander of this battalion medical unit. "Military Officer Danilo Huber, are the data in your report accurate?" Fang Lang looked at the slightly graying hair in front of him, and asked the middle-aged white man wearing glasses. The other party was clearly prepared for this question. Standing at attention and saluting: "Your Excellency, this report is based on the real data of soldiers who have been to the medical camp for physical examination during this period of time. The data is absolutely true and reliable. " Fang Lang frowned, and continued to ask: "Do we have good treatments now?" The military medical officer hurriedly stood at attention and saluted: "Your Excellency, the best treatment now is to use penicillin, but the price of penicillin is too high. More importantly, it takes at least one to two months for a patient to recover. Now, the number of infections discovered in our medical camp alone is close to more than 500 people. As for how many people have been infected and have not been checked in our medical camp, we have no way of counting. " This situation is why Fang Lang doesn''t have a headache. The 10,000-man army has now had more than 500 people diagnosed with syphilis and gonorrhea by the medical camp. Each person needs to be hospitalized for a month, which is equivalent to one-twentieth of the non-combat attrition of the fleet. "Has the source of infection been investigated?" "Report to the general, the source of the infection comes from a woman who lost her footing in Natal!" "Hasn''t the Natal government organization been asked to regularly check the bodies of these women who have lost their feet? Could it be that there are undocumented women who went to work? " Fang Lang was very annoyed. When the Yakubu family was eradicated, the entire entertainment industry in Natal had been rectified, and every woman who had lost her footing was issued a permit to take pictures. The government organizes a medical force to conduct regular physical examinations on these women, and only when they are healthy can they be allowed to operate. Could it be that the government has given up on implementing it so soon? Major Danilo Huber said with a little embarrassment after hearing Fang Lang''s words: "I heard that since the soldiers of the American Advisory Group patronized these businesses, many women who have stumbled have been confirmed infected and sent to the hospital. There are less than 200 delinquent women who can still work normally. " When Fang Lang heard this, he almost spewed out a national curse. Doesn''t this mean that a large part of the American soldiers I invited still carry syphilis and gonorrhea bacteria on their bodies. Knowing how wild the American soldiers are, I didn''t expect it to be so wild. No wonder American soldiers during World War II, everyones supplies will have condoms. It seems that this disease is very common in the US military! Forcibly suppressing the urge to curse, Fang Lang looked at Major Danilo Huber and said: "If we organize all the soldiers to undergo physical examination now, can your manpower be busy?" Major Danilo Huber did not expect that Fang Lang wanted to organize a medical examination for all soldiers. Somewhat embarrassed: "Your Excellency General, we now have more than 500 susceptible patients in the medical camp. If we want to conduct a comprehensive physical examination for everyone, we may need to seek medical support from the outside world." Fang Lang never thought that after becoming a rear admiral, the first official business he handled would be such a **** thing. Helplessly sighed: "There is not enough staff, I will find a way, we must organize everyone to undergo a medical examination immediately. Now we have one-twentieth non-combat attrition. After a comprehensive medical examination, I estimate at least one-tenth of non-combat attrition. Let this continue, and if it is not contained, our fleet will not have to fight. You will be directly defeated by these unspeakable diseases. " Fang Lang turned his head and said to Qi Qingshan: "Notify Chief of Staff De La Torre, and immediately organize all fleet personnel to undergo medical examinations in batches." "Yes, boss." Qi Qingshan took the order to leave. Fang Lang continued to Major Danilo Huber: "Mr. Military Medical Officer, medical and health safety is no small matter. Now the size of our fleet is increasing, and the number of people is also increasing. I think it is very necessary for us to expand the size of the medical camps. You go back and make a plan ASAP, I''m going to set up our fleet''s own hospital. The establishment was expanded to the regiment level. In order to ensure that the hospital has sufficient sources of disease, we can open the remaining medical resources to the outside world. Receive patients and go to the hospital to see a doctor. While training the doctor''s ability, it also creates some income for the fleet. " In fact, this is the advanced experience of the hometown of later generations, which was directly adopted by Fang Lang. Major Danilo Huber was very surprised. After all, Brazil is not his hometown. The army belongs to the country, and the medical battalion also belongs to the country. They are responsible for ensuring the lives, health and safety of soldiers. Now that Fang Lang is going to build a military hospital, Major Danilo Huber has no doubts. However, the General Hospital is open to the public and accepts ordinary people to seek medical treatment in the military hospital. This can be said to be the first time in Brazil! Fang Lang''s move was also helpless, after all, Natal''s medical and health conditions were not very good. After rescuing a group of laborers from the Japanese last time, if they wanted to arrange physical examinations for the laborers, they had to recruit doctors from Rio de Janeiro and other places. Originally, he planned to build a hospital in Natal for Lilith to practice after Lilith graduated. But Lilith''s studies are not expected to end until at least the middle of 1949. Already now, can''t wait. Simply build a military hospital based on the fleet medical battalion. While providing medical and health care for the fleet officers and soldiers, they will train a team of qualified doctors. Major Danilo Huber was surprised by Fang Lang''s actions, but this matter was obviously good for him, and he would definitely not refuse, so he stood at attention without hesitation and saluted: "Yes, Your Excellency General! Guaranteed to complete the task." Fang Lang nodded and said: "For this fleet-wide physical examination, my idea is to try to find suitable medical personnel in Brazil. At the same time, I will also hire a medical team from the United States to conduct a comprehensive physical examination of the American advisory group. I think Americans must have rich clinical experience in the diagnosis and treatment of such diseases. We want to take this opportunity to learn more from them. Understand? " Major Danilo Huber was still surprised that Fang Lang would hire an American medical team. Modern medicine in this era is developing at a high speed. Powerful countries such as Britain and the United States are undoubtedly at the forefront of the world. It is a rare opportunity for Major Danilo Huber and his team to have access to the latest diagnostic and treatment methods of Americans. "Yes, sir!" After finishing the communication with Major Danilo Huber. Fang Lang directly asked for help from his immediate boss, the Minister of the Navy, General Crook. After all, the Rio de Janeiro aircraft carrier battle group is also an important part of the Brazilian Navy. Of course, you cant solve all difficulties by yourself. Appropriately asking for help from the superior leadership can increase your sense of presence in front of the leader. After receiving Fang Lang''s request for help, General Crook immediately dispatched a medical team of about 500 people from the Ministry of the Navy and the Ministry of Defense to Natal for support. He affirmed Fang Lang''s attitude of being able to detect the abnormality in time and immediately start a positive response. Then, Fang Lang asked the American Universal Group to hire a professional medical team from an American hospital to be responsible for the physical examination and treatment of the American advisory group. As I said before, Americans are not noble, and doctors must be invited from the United States to treat them. Fang Lang''s original purpose was to enable Brazilian doctors to learn some advanced diagnosis and treatment methods from Americans. It is best to dig two of the doctors in the medical team to stay in Brazil and join the fleet military hospital to serve the fleet. After all, if you want military hospitals to grow and develop, military doctors alone are definitely not enough. External doctors are also an important means, and these American doctors are excellent talents who have been in contact with the world''s advanced diagnosis and treatment methods. It is of course best to stay. Of course, this is also Fang Lang''s wishful thinking. After all, doctors in the United States are high-income people and are respected. If he joins the military hospital, how much salary can Fang Lang give? Referring to American standards will definitely cause conflicts between local Brazilian doctors and American doctors. Therefore, this plan will definitely not work in the end. The only long-term solution is to train our own medical staff. (end of this chapter) Chapter 280: visit the hospital Chapter 280 Visiting the Hospital If you want to solve the spread of the disease, it is of course not enough to rely on medical examination and treatment within the army. Outside sources of transmission should of course also be rectified. Early the next morning, Fang Lang asked Mayor Ewald Dursley to inspect the medical and health facilities in Natal. Driving through the streets of downtown Natal again, Fang Lang was very surprised. No wonder Mr. President praised the construction of Natal last time. During the current period of Natal and Fang Lang''s military administration, there have indeed been huge changes. The main street has been turned into a four-lane concrete road, and tall landscape trees have been planted on the side of the road, and the muddy and dilapidated appearance can no longer be seen. There is only one hospital in Natal, which is on the main street in the city center. When Fang Lang and Mayor Ewald Dursley came to the entrance of the hospital, they found that the hospital was a little deserted, and it was not as crowded as Fang Lang expected scene. The arrival of the two did not attract the attention of the hospital staff. "Your Excellency, this is our only hospital in Natal. It was established by Dr. Basco Tapia. After nearly 30 years of development, it has reached its current scale." Fang Lang carefully looked at the hospital in front of him, which was about the same size as the township hospital in his previous life. It consisted of four rows of bungalows forming a small courtyard. There are four or five tall trees in the yard, and there are some low shrubs scattered under the trees, which seem to be well-groomed. There is a bench under each big tree, and there are four or five men and women who look like sick patients scattered on the bench, looking at Fang Lang and his party boredly. Hearing Mayor Ewald Dursley''s introduction, Fang Lang didn''t express any opinion, just nodded, and continued to walk inside. After entering the gate of the hospital, there is a registered toll office on the left, where a middle-aged Caucasian woman is sorting out the receipts in her hand. On the right is a place that looks like a pharmacy, but the area is less than ten square meters. A white man in his thirties is holding a book and reading. Walking through the room, you can see the corridors on the left and right sides near the yard. Along the corridors, you can see rooms one by one. Some people''s names are pasted on the rooms, which seem to be the names of doctors. But Fang Lang couldn''t see the name of the department, which surprised Fang Lang. Could it be that the current Natal Hospital doesn''t even have divisions? Walking all the way, Fang Lang counted ten doctors'' offices in total. It seems that this is all the doctors in this hospital. No wonder there were not enough manpower to arrange a physical examination. Fortunately, although the conditions of this hospital are simple, the hygienic environment is well managed. The ground and the house are hardened with cement. The last row of houses has more than ten rooms, and each room has three beds. It seems that this is the inpatient department of the hospital. There are thirty beds in total. After everyone walked around the hospital, Mayor Ewald Dursley took Fang Lang and knocked on the door of a room with the dean''s office. A slightly old voice came from inside and said: "Come in!" Mayor Ewald Dursley pushed open the door, went in and greeted the other party with a smile: "Long time no see Dr. Basco Tapia." Following the opened door, Fang Lang saw an old white man in his sixties with gray hair. The old man is not tall, with a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose, he looks like a scholar. "Mr. Mayor, is there something uncomfortable?" The old man pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose and said. Mayor Ewald Dursley waved his hands again and again: "Dr. Basco Tapia, I don''t have any discomfort. Today I mainly accompany General Fang to come to your side to have a look." Said and moved away. Fang Lang hurried forward, nodded to the old man and said: "Hello, Doctor Basco Tapia, I''m Fang Lang!" The old man looked Fang Lang up and down and said: "Are you Director Fang from the naval base?" Fang Lang didn''t expect that the other party had heard of him. Hastily smiled and nodded: "Yes, Dr. Basco Tapia, I am the chief of the Natal Naval Base." After hearing Fang Lang''s answer, the old man stood up directly from the stool, stretched out his right hand, and was about to shake hands with Fang Lang. With a trembling mouth, he said: "General Fang, thank you! Thank you for avenging my granddaughter. If it weren''t for you, I''m afraid I would never find the murderer who killed my granddaughter in my life. " Fang Lang was taken aback by these words, and even Mayor Ewald Dursley was at a loss. Dr. Basco Tapia saw the reaction of the two, and quickly explained: My granddaughter disappeared when he was sixteen years old, and we called the police to search for it, but nothing came of it. A few months after the general in front arrested the Yakubu family, I only learned about it from a policeman. My granddaughter was also harmed by that old **** Yakubu. My poor granddaughter! Only sixteen years old! That **** who should go to hell, how did he do it! " While talking, the old man started to cry. Fang Lang was at a loss for a while, and hurriedly comforted the elderly with Mayor Ewald Dursley. After a long while, Dr. Basco Tapia finally stopped his excitement. said with a trembling voice: "General Fang, did you feel uncomfortable when you came here today?" It seems that the first reaction of a doctor when seeing a person is to ask if there is something wrong with the body! Fang Lang shook his head with a smile and said: "Dr. Tapia, I came here today mainly to learn about the medical strength of our hospital, especially the ability to diagnose and treat infectious diseases. Recently my military medical officer told me that many of my men were infected with syphilis and gonorrhea. This will have a very serious impact on the combat effectiveness of our troops. Our army has already arranged for everyone to undergo medical examinations, and treated all infected persons intensively. However, the infected people outside must also be controlled and treated. As the only hospital in Natal, I want to come to understand the situation. " As soon as he heard Fang Lang''s words, Dr. Basco Tapia understood what Fang Lang meant. directly opened the mouth and said: "General Fang is here for those sick girls! According to what I have learned, the number of girls infected is very large. Fortunately, the government now arranges for girls to go to the hospital for regular checkups, so we found out in a timely manner. Have started treatment for all the girls. If the girls have not recovered, we will not issue health certificates to them. please do not worry! " Fang Lang always felt something was wrong when he heard what the other party said. What do you mean I came here for the sick girls. This is not my infection! Why is it so awkward in my ears! After thinking about it, it was not time to worry about these details, so he nodded and continued to ask: "Are there any difficulties with treatment?" Dr. Basco Tapia nodded and said: "The best drug to treat these diseases is penicillin, but the price of this drug is too expensive. So, some girls can''t afford the treatment at all. You can only choose to use the old treatment plan for treatment, which may take a little longer. " This is considered normal. The Fangyuan Group manufactures penicillin itself, so it is clear that the production of penicillin was difficult in the absence of chemical synthesis, and the high price is also a normal phenomenon. Fang Lang is not a saint. It is impossible for him to provide penicillin to these girls for free when he heard that some girls could not pay for penicillin. The doctor said that the old treatment plan can still be cured, so there is no problem. Soldiers are of course using penicillin directly. After all, the cost of medicine is paid by the military expenditure of the Ministry of Defense. This is also a business! "Ah That''s good. Are there many people other than these girls infected? " After all, it''s not just soldiers who take care of the girl''s business, there are also many guests outside! Dr. Basco Tapia thought for a while before saying: "As far as the current situation is concerned, not many other people come to the hospital for medical treatment. I guess it hasn''t attracted attention yet. It is also possible that someone has no money for medical treatment. " Hearing this, Fang Lang hurriedly said to Mayor Ewald Dursley: "This is not acceptable, it is easy to cause repeated infection. Maybe we should spread the word to everyone about the dangers of these diseases, and let these girls learn to use safety measures. Post some reminder notices on the entertainment street, so that the public can pay attention to it and seek medical treatment in time. Avoid further spread of the disease. " Mayor Ewald Dursley can be said to obey Fang Lang''s words now. After all, this is Mr. President''s guest, so he still has to curry favor with him. hurriedly said: "No problem, I asked the health department to post notices on Entertainment Street, and spread the dangers of these diseases and early symptoms in newspapers, so that more people can be detected and treated early." These things are originally the work of government departments. Fang Lang discovered the situation in the army and reported it to the government, even if he had completed his task. Today, he and Mayor Ewald Dursley met to visit the hospital together. Of course, it was not purely for the purpose of investigating the spread and treatment of diseases outside. The more important purpose is to investigate the medical market and see after the establishment of a military hospital in Natal. Is there room for other hospitals to survive. If it is not suitable, after Lilith graduates, she will have to consider whether to let her work in a military hospital or find another place to build a hospital. "Dr. Basco Tapia, Mr. Mayor told me that you are the only hospital in Natal, but when I first came in, I found that there were not many patients in the hospital. Why is that?" In Fang Lang''s perception, the hospital has never been short of patients, but today he did not see many patients in Tapia Hospital. Even if Natal is just a small city with a population of less than 200,000, there should not be only such a few patients! Could it be that the locals in Brazil believe in witch doctors more? If this is the case, I have to consider whether it is necessary for me to let the military hospital open to the outside world. It''s not that they are afraid of competing with Tapia Hospital for patients, but that such a small source of disease is simply not enough to support the development of a large hospital. After hearing what Fang Lang said, Dr. Basco Tapia glanced at Fang Lang with a strange expression and said: "General Fang, it takes a lot of money to see a doctor in the hospital. Our hospital has been operating in Natal for thirty years. At the beginning, it was just my private clinic. The scale has never been large, and the people who can come to the hospital to see a doctor are also some dignitaries. Even within the first two years of opening, not a single non-Caucasian patient visited my clinic. In recent years, after everyone''s economic conditions have improved, the number of patients who can come to the hospital to see a doctor has gradually increased. It was four years ago that my hospital expanded to its current size! " Such an answer is reasonable and unexpected. "Where will other people go for treatment when they are sick?" (end of this chapter) Chapter 281: Daqing Spinning Mill Chapter 281 Daqing Spinning Factory I heard Fang Lang asking where people who didn''t go to the hospital would go to see a doctor. Both of them had weird expressions on their faces, and Mayor Ewald Dursley coughed twice and said: "General Fang, in fact most Brazilians, do not have the ability to enjoy medical services." This answer really exceeded Fang Lang''s expectations. Even in his hometown at this time, ordinary people in remote towns can still enjoy the medical services of a Chinese doctor. I didn''t expect the people in Brazil to live in such dire straits. But thinking about Brazil''s population structure carefully, Fang Lang also believed this situation. After all, Brazil is a colony of Portugal. Except for the whites among European and American immigrants and the original Portuguese nobles, the population of Brazil is all local Indians and slaves from Africa. Brazil in this period still had this strong feudal remnant ideology. The status of Indians and blacks was very low, and they had little opportunity to receive education. Therefore, most of the poor at the bottom live in poverty and have no economic income. The original Brazil did not even have any decent industry at all, and the main source of income relied on agriculture. In recent years, due to World War II, the United States has increased investment in Brazil in order to obtain high-quality industrial raw materials, providing Brazil with many jobs. Also improved the lives of the original Indians and blacks. Fangyuan Groups large investment in Brazil in the past two years has also solved the employment problems of many low-level people. Especially in some construction industries, the requirements for workers are not high. As long as you have the strength, you can earn money to support your family with your own efforts. Even so, the lower class people in Brazil still cannot enjoy the right to education and medical services. To know the right to vote in Brazil''s political rights, there is also a clear stipulation that illiterates do not have the right to vote. That is to say, most of the bottom-level people in the Brazilian population do not even have the right to vote. After hearing Mr. Mayor''s answer, Fang Lang fell into deep thought for a while. He is not discouraged by the small number of people who can enjoy medical services. Its like a famous story about a salesman selling shoes to Africa. A salesman saw that no one was wearing shoes, so he felt that he couldnt sell shoes here; The other sale was just the opposite. His reaction when he saw that everyone was not wearing shoes was that the market here was huge and everyone lacked a pair of shoes. As a modern person with a vision for future generations, Fang Lang, of course, sees the huge market, and everyone should have the right to enjoy medical services. It''s just that everyone has no money, so no one dares to enter the hospital to enjoy basic medical services. Now Fang Lang has to consider how to make everyone rich and willing to enjoy medical services. This kind of thinking, of course, does not need to be explained to Mayor Ewald Dursley and Dr. Basco Tapia. So, Fang Lang didn''t continue to ask this question. When the two saw Fang Lang who was lost in thought, neither of them spoke. After a long while, Fang Lang vaguely had a plan in his mind. After turning his head to thank Dr. Basco Tapia, he and Mayor Ewald Dursley left the only hospital in Natal. After leaving the hospital, Fang Lang did not choose to return to the naval base immediately. Instead, accompanied by Mayor Ewald Dursley, he visited Natal''s changes. The two sat in the car and visited all the way, and unknowingly came to the gate of a factory with a Chinese plaque. Fang Lang said "Huh!" Seeing the Chinese characters of Daqing Spinning Factory above, I realized that this is not the Daqing Spinning Factory invested and built by myself in Natal? I think that among the laborers I rescued in Natal, I found Chen Hongqing, a talented person who ran a spinning mill in Tianjin, and thought of the high-quality long-staple cotton produced in Natal, so I invested in Chen Hongqing to open this spinning mill. I have been running around all the time, but I haven''t paid any serious attention to the situation of this factory. Mayor Ewald Dursley, who has been by Fang Lang''s side all the time, heard Fang Lang''s voice, followed Fang Lang''s gaze, and saw this factory with a Chinese signboard. Hastily smiled and said: "General Fang''s factory has provided jobs for many local women." Hearing Mayor Ewald Dursley''s words, Fang Lang smiled and said: After the factory opened, I didnt even have the chance to visit it! I dont know if Mr. Mayor is free today. He will accompany me to see the situation of this factory. " He didn''t have the nerve to say that he didn''t even know when the factory opened. He could only say that he had no chance to visit after it opened. Mayor Ewald Dursley certainly would not refuse after hearing Fang Lang''s words. smiled and said: "No problem at all. I have attended the opening ceremony of your factory. The manager named Chen is a very good businessman. " Fang Lang did not expect that Mayor Ewald Dursley would attend the opening ceremony of this factory. However, the other party knows that this factory is their own industry. It is not surprising that it opened as a rare textile factory in Natal, and that the local mayor came to attend the opening ceremony. With the long-sleeved and good-dancing character of the Chinese, it is also a basic operation to invite an official figure to participate in the opening. Regarding Mayor Ewald Dursley''s evaluation of Chen Hongqing, Fang Lang just smiled and did not make any evaluation. People from their hometown have a very serious idea of ??the standard of officials. For Mayor Ewald Dursley to attend the opening ceremony, he will definitely attach great importance to it, and may even give him a big gift. So, Fang Lang would not be surprised that Mr. Mayor could give Chen Hongqing a good review. He will not express any opinions. The driver heard the conversation between the two, and naturally turned the vehicle in the direction of the Daqing Spinning Mill, and the accompanying vehicles quickly followed. Standing at the gate of the Daqing Spinning Mill, the guards in charge of the gate were a lame elderly Chinese man and two young Indian youths. When you see the rarely seen convoy in downtown Natal, you know that a big shot is coming. Watching the excitement, the convoy made a turn and came straight towards their factory. The old man was so scared that he was trembling, and he limped to the gate to stop the convoy. He stepped forward to ask the purpose of the convoy, and the two local boys also hurried forward. If this was in his hometown, his old man might not dare to step forward to stop such a convoy from entering the factory. But he is not afraid of these Brazilians in Brazil. After all, he knows that the boss of the factory is the commander of the naval base not far away, and he is a person who walks sideways in Natal. Who dares not to give his boss face. Even the police patrolling the streets regard their factory as a key inspection area, patrolling the factory at least three times a day. This raised the hearts of all the Chinese employees, and they were not as afraid of the so-called foreigners as they were in their hometown. The two Indian boys under his command, although the language communication is not very smooth, but they are also obeyed by his command. "What are you doing!" The old man asked in his unproficient Portuguese. The reason why he was able to lame one leg and get into the easy job of a doorman is that his language talent is very good. Although it is not very smooth, he has been able to communicate in Portuguese in just a few months , is already very remarkable. The vehicle leading the way is the guard next to Fang Lang. Seeing the elderly Chinese in front of him, he smiled and said kindly: "This is the convoy of the general of the Navy. Now come to visit your factory." The old man saw that they were wearing military uniforms, and he heard that the surname was Fang, the chief of the navy. Isn''t that his boss? quickly corrected his attitude and said: "Okay, wait a moment, I will notify Manager Chen immediately." Turned his head and shouted at the two Indian boys: "Hurry up and open the door. The boss is here. I''ll call Manager Chen." After speaking, he limped and ran to the guard room to make a phone call. The guards in the head car got out of the car one after another, helped the two Indians open the gate, and began to guard the gate with their guns in hand. The convoy passed through the gate smoothly and stopped in the factory. Facing the factory is a two-lane wide cement road with a length of three to four hundred meters. On both sides are neat factory buildings, with a total of eight buildings. Each factory building has a huge iron gate. Outside the iron gate are parked trucks loading and unloading goods. The workers are busy at the gate. Fang Lang is very satisfied with the busy scene. The workers also saw these uninvited guests coming in at the door, and they all looked here and there curiously. Fang Lang noticed that there were Chinese and Indians among the workers, and they cooperated tacitly with the black people, and their work efficiency was not bad. It''s not like the Africa that Fang Lang''s later generations saw in the video, where three or four black people have to hand it back and forth to pack the boxes. Pushed the car door and walked down, regardless of whether Chen Hongqing came over or not, he walked directly along the main road in the middle. The guard''s room is located on the right side of the gate, and behind it is a two-story office building. The factory''s office area should be here, but Fang Lang did not visit the office building. Instead, he walked directly into the factory area, and came to the iron gate of the first factory building, and saw a sign above the factory building, which said flower-making workshop. In his previous life, Fang Lang also saw a small flower tie machine in the countryside when he was a child, and knew that this was the workshop for separating the lint and cotton seeds in cotton. Even standing at the gate of the factory, Fang Lang could see the cotton fluff floating in the air in the workshop. This is not a good thing, it is easy to block the respiratory tract and cause harm to the human body. Seeing that the workers didn''t have any protective measures, not even a mask, Fang Lang frowned. A Chinese who was carrying goods at the door, after seeing Fang Lang''s appearance, exclaimed in surprise: "Mr. Fang." Fang Lang knew that many of these Chinese were rescued from the Japanese, so it was not surprising to know him. smiled and nodded to him: "Brother, what is your surname! Are you still used to working here?" This Chinese is in his thirties, with dark skin, tall and thin, and he looks like a person who has suffered a lot. Hearing Fang Lang call him big brother, the man smiled so much that his back molars were exposed, and he said excitedly: "Mr. Fang, my name is Yuan Dashuan. Thanks to you, this job is very easy, and there is nothing unaccustomed to it. Compared with the original mine, this is heaven. " As soon as Fang Lang heard what the other party said, he understood that this was one of the people rescued from the mine. "That''s good, let''s get used to it in life!" When he heard about life, the man named Yuan Dashuan smiled even more happily. nodded repeatedly and said: "It''s not something I''m not used to. The chefs in the cafeteria are also Chinese. They cook all Chinese tastes. They are rich in oil and water. They can eat meat dishes in every meal. When they were in their hometown, the landlord Lao Cai didn''t have such a good life. Look, I''m getting fat. " After finishing speaking, he rolled up his sleeves and showed Fang Lang the muscles on his arms. (end of this chapter) Chapter 282: Visit the spinning mill Chapter 282 Visiting the spinning mill Seeing Yuan Dashuan''s movements, Fang Lang also smiled. Although Mayor Ewald Dursley beside him couldn''t understand what the two were talking about, he also laughed when he saw their expressions. Just when Fang Lang was about to chat with this simple man, Chen Hongqing''s voice came from behind him. "Boss, you finally came to our factory to have a look." Hearing Chen Hongqing''s bitter and bitter voice, Fang Lang turned his head and saw that Chen Hongqing was very different from the first time he saw it. I still remember the first time I saw him, I thought he was an old man in his fifties or sixties, and I kept calling him old man Chen. But after several months of cultivation, the other party looked more than ten years younger, and his whole person seemed to be radiant. Fang Lang stretched out his right hand to Chen Hongqing, smiled and said: "Haha. With Manager Chen here, it doesn''t matter if I come or not! I havent seen you for a few months, isnt the factory already up and running? " Chen Hongqing was very excited when he saw Fang Lang again. Seeing Fang Lang stretching out his hand, he hurried forward and held it tightly. It seems that there are thousands of words to confide to Fang Lang. But I noticed Mayor Ewald Dursley next to Fang Lang, and hurriedly nodded to Mr. Mayor, saying a few polite words. Fang Lang nodded secretly when he saw Chen Hongqing greeting the mayor in Portuguese with a strong accent. It seems that everyone is making good progress in learning Portuguese! "Boss, this is all thanks to your support and the help of Mr. Mayor. Our Daqing Spinning Mill was able to operate in such a short period of time. " Chen Hongqing''s traditional politeness in his hometown still seemed very kind to Fang Lang''s ears. "What is the output of our factory now?" Fang Lang still wanted to express his concern about the situation of the factory. "Boss, now we have 50,000 spinning spindles in our Daqing spinning mill. In the early stage, because the workers were not very skilled, we could only produce less than 15 tons of cotton yarn every day. But please rest assured, as workers become more and more proficient in technology, we will be able to produce 18 tons of cotton yarn per day. " In fact, Fang Lang is not familiar with the production scale and output of this cotton spinning mill at all, and he doesn''t even understand the so-called tens of thousands of spindles. Hearing that 15 tons of cotton yarn can be produced every day, it seems that the monthly output is about 450 tons. I don''t know how many pieces of cloth can be spun. But seeing Chen Hongqing''s expression, he knew that the output must not be low. Fang Lang nodded and asked: "Are the sales of the product okay?" "Of course, boss. We use the most advanced machines in the United States, and the yarn spun is fast and good. We have already signed a supply contract with Global Trade. The United States will receive as much as we produce, and we dont have to worry about not being able to sell it. " Chen Hongqing said with a smile on his face. Fang Lang frowned and said: "We are exporting cotton yarn directly now, haven''t we started weaving?" Noticing Fang Lang''s frown, Chen Hongqing quickly restrained his smile, and said in a low voice: "Boss, our textile factory is still under construction, and the factory is expected to be put into production at the end of next month. The equipment of the printing and dyeing factory is still being purchased. It is expected that the complete cloth will be produced in Natal until the end of September. " Fang Lang also knew that he was still too anxious, so he nodded apologetically to Chen Hongqing. Looking at Mayor Ewald Dursley beside him, he asked: "Mr. Mayor, how much can our average annual cotton trading volume in Natal go to in previous years!" Mayor Ewald Dursley didn''t understand why Fang Lang suddenly asked himself this question. Fortunately, cotton is an important export commodity in Natal, and the mayor can still know this quantity. directly opened the mouth and said: "Our average annual cotton trading volume in Natal is 160,000 tons!" Fang Lang turned his head to Chen Hongqing and said: "Did you hear that? Such a high cotton output, your production capacity can''t absorb it at all! Our production scale will continue to expand. Strive to export most of the cotton in Natal into finished cotton cloth or garments in Natal, so as to maximize our benefits. " Chen Hongqing obviously didn''t expect Fang Lang''s appetite to be so big, but he felt very refreshed after hearing this. Hastily nodded yes. Then Fang Lang pointed to the workers in the workshop and said: I saw the workers in our factory working in such an environment without even masks, which is not acceptable. We are not a sweatshop. Every skilled worker is the wealth of our factory. We must protect the health of our workers. By the way, has the group company issued a notice to form a trade union inside the factory? " Fang Lang and Mayor Ewald Dursley, accompanied by Chen Hongqing, walked into the production workshop. The floating objects in the air made Fang Lang''s nostrils itchy, and he had the urge to sneeze. "It''s the boss, I''ll arrange for people to purchase masks immediately. We have received the notice from the ??Group. and has already started to execute. " "Well! Very good, the textile industry is a labor-intensive industry with a large number of workers, and the role of trade unions is very huge. You should not directly participate in the purchase of masks. Let the trade unions submit applications, purchase and distribute, and enhance the cohesion of our own trade unions among our workers. " Chen Hongqing didn''t quite understand what Fang Lang meant. Why didn''t this kind of thing be done directly in the name of the company, but instead had to go around and hand it over to the trade union. Isn''t this equivalent to voluntarily giving up the opportunity to buy people''s hearts? "But why is that?" Fang Lang smiled and did not speak. Mayor Ewald Dursley on the side thought deeply after hearing Fang Lang''s words. He is a member of the Social Democratic Party, and he recently heard about a trade union organization set up by the Labor Party, and he is telling the development. But listening to the conversation between Fang Lang and the two of them, the trade union of the Daqing Spinning Mill was obviously not organized by the Labor Party, but rather organized internally by the Fangyuan Group itself, which puzzled him very much. Fang Lang smiled, first patted Chen Hongqing on the shoulder and said: "Don''t worry! We must have our own purpose in doing this. You just need to make sure that the chairman of the trade union is one of our own." Chen Hongqing nodded repeatedly and said: "Boss, don''t worry, the chairman of the trade union in our factory is the brother who was rescued from the mine with me, and he is absolutely loyal to the company." I didnt expect the chairman of the trade union of Daqing Spinning Mill to be a Chinese, but after thinking about it, I understand that the most trusted by the Chinese must be the Chinese. What''s more, he is still an old brother who has endured hardships with him. Patted Chen Hongqing on the shoulder and smiled: "That''s good, as long as we ensure that the trade union is decided by our own people, we won''t be afraid of the high reputation of the trade union among the workers, understand?" Mayor Ewald Dursley, who had been with Fang Lang all the time, heard what the two said. asked with a little surprise: "General Fang, is the trade union organization in your factory established by your company?" Fang Lang remembered that there was an outsider beside him. If this guy was a member of the Labor Party, wouldn''t he expose the Fangyuan Group''s plan? But after carefully looking at the other person''s expression, he only saw a curious expression, so he tentatively asked: "I don''t know which party the mayor belongs to!" Mayor Ewald Dursley understood Fang Lang''s meaning as soon as he heard Fang Lang''s words, and quickly smiled: "Don''t worry, General Fang, I am a member of the Social Democratic Party, not the Labor Party. I ask you because a few days ago, a labor union was established in our joint venture sugar factory, but this labor union was supported by the Labor Party behind the scenes. Now they are asking us to reduce the working hours to ten hours, and I am also having a headache! " Fang Lang just remembered that he and the mayor jointly established a sugar factory in Natal, but the major shareholder of this sugar factory is the other party, and the Fangyuan Group only sent financial personnel to the factory. Now it seems that Mayor Ewald Dursley has also realized that the purpose of the Labor Party''s establishment of trade unions is not pure. After thinking about it, Fang Lang asked: "Which party is Jada Brooke?" "He is a member of the National League." After Fang Lang heard that neither of them was a member of the Labor Party, he pondered for a while and said: I think the establishment of trade unions is irreversible. But we factory owners cannot be easily manipulated by the Labor Party. Therefore, our Fangyuan Group directly established a trade union organization of our own. I suggest that Mr. Mayor and Mr. Speaker can join in and go to the headquarters of our Fangyuan Group in Sao Paulo to participate in our company''s own trade union organization training. Waiting for you people, understand how our own trade unions operate, and you will no longer regard trade unions as a scourge. " Although Mayor Ewald Dursley was a little skeptical, after considering Fang Lang''s ability, he chose to nod in agreement. After receiving Mayor Ewald Dursley''s question, Fang Lang turned his attention to Chen Hongqing again and said: "How many workers are there in our factory now?" Chen Hongqing was thinking about why Fang Lang asked Mr. Mayor and Mr. Speaker to arrange people to study in the trade union of the group, and what is the purpose of this trade union. Almost didn''t realize Fang Lang''s question, and it took a while before he said: "Ah! Our factory now has a total of 1,000 people working in two shifts." The number of workers is not many for a labor-intensive industry. According to Fang Lang''s prediction, in the future, Natal will have at least 100,000 workers in the textile industry alone. With these 100,000 textile workers, it will drive many other surrounding industries. For example, in the downstream garment industry, it is impossible for Fang Lang to complete all the industries by himself. His goal is to control large enterprises by himself, and then support some small and medium-sized enterprises. The garment industry is the easiest to develop. Then there are other service industries. As long as there is enough population in a place, there will definitely be a huge market. Once the market is formed, capital will naturally move here. Once capital enters, the local economy will naturally become active. Of course, its not enough just to have people. These people must also have spending power, that is, have money to consume. "How much is the salary of the workers? Can they support themselves?" Fang Lang is still very concerned about whether the workers can earn money. Only when they earn money will they be able to consume, and only if they are able to consume can they revitalize the economy of a place. His purpose has never been to make himself a lot of money. His purpose is to cultivate enough Chinese middle class. "Boss, the monthly salary of each worker is about two hundred and eighty Cruzeiros. Of course, there is no problem in supporting oneself. In fact, most of our Chinese wages are deposited in the bank but not withdrawn. Everyone eats and lives in the factory, so there is no need for consumption at all. I learned that those local people can live very well if they can get so much wages every month. This salary standard is considered very high in the whole of Natal. " Chen Hongqing didn''t know Fang Lang''s purpose for asking the workers'' wages, but he knew that Fang Lang was not a stingy person, and he would definitely not be angry because of the workers'' wages. Note: Cruzeiro was the currency unit of Brazil from 1942 to 1967; The author found out that in 1948, 1 US dollar could be exchanged for about 18.5 Cruzeiros, The wages of workers in textile factories are about 15 US dollars per month. (end of this chapter) Chapter 283: management issues Chapter 283 Management Issues Fang Lang didn''t think the monthly salary of 280 Cruzeiro for textile workers was high. However, he also knows that the wages of ordinary workers in Brazil are generally not high. From the expression on Mayor Ewald Dursley''s side, it can be seen that the wages of their factory are not low. Nodding his head, he said to Chen Hongqing: "Among these local workers, are there any family members of our navy officers and soldiers? I remember that when we recruited workers, we asked for priority in recruiting the family members of the sailors. " This is indeed what Fang Lang meant. The purpose of Fang Lang''s initial establishment of these factories was also to accommodate the families of the soldiers under his command. It is used to increase the cohesion of soldiers. The families of the soldiers are placed near the base. One is to ease the soldiers homesickness and allow the soldiers to reunite with their families during their breaks. This can also reduce the chances of soldiers messing around outside during their breaks. Secondly, in order to further tie the soldiers to their chariots, Fang Lang paid the soldiers allowances, and their family members worked in the Fang Lang family''s factory. It is equivalent to a family of soldiers relying on Fang Lang to support them, which can better improve the loyalty of the soldiers. Third, the allowances of the soldiers under Fang Lang''s command are not low, and the family members also work nearby, with so much income, it is easy for the soldiers to choose to settle in Natal. This can further increase the population of Natal and drive the economy of Natal. "Of course, boss. Many of our female workers are family members of soldiers, and they come for interviews with letters of introduction issued by the fleet. " Fang Lang nodded in satisfaction and said: "That''s good, the work enthusiasm of these family members is no problem!" Some worry that these family members will not obey the management because of their status as military family members. Bring adverse effects to the development of the factory. "The boss can rest assured that our factory uses performance-based wages, the more we do, the more we get. If everyone wants to get a high salary, they will definitely work **** their own. " Accompanied by the two, Fang Lang visited all the way and walked through several production workshops. The roar of the machines in some workshops was so loud that several people had to walk out of the factory before continuing to talk. Through today''s inspection, Fang Lang still found a lot of problems, but it''s no wonder that more management concepts of later generations in this era have not yet appeared. Many things that are well known in later generations have not been brought up in this era. Fang Lang has never studied factory management, so he couldn''t come up with some theoretical things. However, it is still very easy to find some problems. So, after everyone returned to the company''s office, Chen Hongqing gathered all the basic management personnel of the factory into the meeting room, ready to listen to the boss''s lecture. Fang Lang didn''t want to do these formalistic things, but it might be more effective for him to say some things, and he could buy people''s hearts. Therefore, there is no excuse. Let''s have a meeting! For Fang Lang, he was already familiar with it. After Chen Hongqing finished his opening remarks and introduction, it was Fang Lang''s turn to speak. First of all, I affirmed the achievements made by everyone, and thanked everyone for their hard work. Then start asking the questions you found. During this visit, I also found several problems, and here I want to raise them one by one, hoping that everyone can implement improvement one by one. First of all, I think the most important job of a factory is safety. What is the biggest safety hazard in a textile factory? It is fire prevention. During the inspection today, I found many workers smoking. Smoking in a textile factory, isnt this lighting a lamp in the toilet, courting death? So, the first thing is to implement a smoke-free factory. From today on, all fireworks, flammable and explosive materials must not appear in the factory. Even the kitchen that needs to be cooked should be far away from the production area of ??the factory. Look at the cotton wool floating in the factory, if you are not careful, it will cause disaster. Second, the fire-fighting facilities in the factory are very imperfect. I noticed that there are a few water tanks outside the factory, but such a small water tank is a drop in the bucket for such a large workshop. If an accident happens, it will not be able to play its due role at all. I remember that special fire extinguishers have appeared in European and American countries. We have them on the warships of our fleet, and we can purchase them later. There must be a fire extinguisher every ten meters in the factory. In addition, workers should also be organized to learn fire prevention and fire extinguishing knowledge every month, to know how to put out what kind of fire, and how to use fire extinguishers. I dont want the electric circuit to catch fire that day, and some people still want to use water to extinguish it. Is this to be understood by the people? " Everyone nodded, and took out their small notebooks to record. Chen Hongqing also blushed a little. He knew that the boss was a soldier, but he didn''t expect to find so many problems just by looking at it. "Third, I found that our factory has not regulated the placement of goods and tools at all. The first thing I felt when I walked into the factory was that it was messy, some places didnt even have a place to step down. How can this work? Workers tripped and fell, causing industrial accidents. Who is responsible? From now on, scattered goods can be packed in wooden boxes, marked, and lines drawn on the ground. The corresponding items can only be placed in the designated places. Anyone who does not follow the regulations will be punished. I hope that the factory floor will always be clean and tidy, except for mechanical equipment, no raw materials, goods and tools should be present. Especially the oil stains produced by machinery must be cleaned up in time. It would be great if you could find an OCD to check this work out. " Everyone can understand the importance of fire prevention work. But I didn''t expect that the boss would put such strict requirements on the placement of items. For a while, everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, not knowing what was the point of doing so. In everyone''s mind, many things must be placed in the most convenient place, so that everyone can work conveniently. Actually, Fang Lang didn''t know the specific principle of doing this. However, he knew that most of the factories in later generations were like this, and they looked very clean and tidy, giving them a sense of grandeur. He doesnt know, but in fact, this is the 5S management that many factories are using, arranging, rectifying, cleaning, cleaning and literacy. This management method is mainly to create a safe, comfortable and bright working environment, cultivate good working habits of employees, and improve the quality of people. It was proposed by the Japanese, of course, it may now be proposed by the Fangyuan Group. Fang Lang noticed that everyone''s expressions were a little unclear, and he didn''t explain too much, but said directly with a cold face: "If you understand it, you must execute it, if you don''t understand it, you must execute it. This is an order, understand?" Everyone was silent, expressing their understanding in unison. Seeing everyone''s expressions, Fang Lang understood that no one should dare to disobey his order, so he didn''t say much, but nodded and continued: In the end, I found that our workers didnt have uniform uniforms, which is very inappropriate and not conducive to highlighting the image of our factory. How about this! In the future, we can provide winter and summer work clothes for the workers in the factory every year. The types of work of workers are different, and the color and logo of the work clothes can also be distinguished, so that our managers can distinguish the type of work of this worker at a glance. For example, our porters can be blue-gray, which is resistant to dirt. Workers on the production line can use white! This looks cleaner and tidier. By the way, all workers must wear hats that can wrap their hair. If the spinning machine accidentally twists your hair, it is too dangerous to pull your head into the machine, understand? " When Chen Hongqing saw the boss, he simply looked around like this, and then put forward so many rectification requirements. I feel very admirable in my heart. After all, what the boss said is not just empty talk, but all of them are real problems, although he has not figured out why some problems. However, as a manager, he can see a lot of benefits from the method proposed by the boss, which is enough. Immediately afterwards, Fang Lang encouraged everyone again, and shook hands with everyone one by one to say goodbye. After everyone returned to work, Fang Lang chatted with Chen Hongqing again. "Old Chen! Do the workers in our factory take sick leave a lot? Where do you go for medical treatment when you get sick?" Chen Hongqing couldn''t respond to Fang Lang''s sudden question. However, he also understood this matter, and quickly replied: "Boss, for the time being, there are not many workers who take sick leave, and most of them will still go to work in the factory after getting sick. After a period of time, the disease gradually recovered. As for where to go for medical treatment after getting sick, I do know that there is a hospital in Natal. However, the cost of seeing a doctor is too high, and one month''s wages can''t even splash the water in the hospital. If you are not seriously ill, you dare not go to the hospital for treatment. Last time I heard that a local man had a wound infected and suppurated. He went to the hospital to see a doctor and said that he needed to be injected with penicillin. Good guy, it costs 3,700 Cruzeiros for an injection, which is higher than the wages of the workers for a year. Who cares about this, I can only buy some sulfonamide tablets and eat at home, and it will be cured gradually. " Penicillin is expensive. Of course, Fang Lang knows that sulfonamide is also a very good anti-inflammatory drug. The effect is not as obvious as penicillin, and the price is actually not cheap. After all, Brazil does not have the ability to manufacture locally, and has to rely on imports, but thinking about its own pharmaceutical factory, maybe it can try to manufacture some sulfonamides for sale. You said, if we take part of the wages of the workers every month, our factory subsidizes another part to buy a medical insurance for everyone. Let everyone be able to see the disease in the future, will the workers be willing? " Fang Lang''s words made Chen Hongqing fall into deep thought again, and even the mayor, Mr. Ewald Dursley, looked at Fang Lang puzzledly, not understanding what he meant. But Mr. Mayor felt that this obviously didn''t concern him, so he didn''t participate in the discussion. Chen Hongqing asked after thinking for a while: "How much should the workers pay? How much should the factory subsidize?" Fang Lang thought for a while, knocked on the table and said: Workers spend one-twentieth of their monthly wages, which is about 14 Cruzeiros, and the factory subsidizes 28 Cruzeiros. In total, they spend 42 Cruzeiros to buy a medical insurance. It is used to ensure that everyone can enjoy medical services when they are sick. " "But in this way, the factory will have an extra monthly expenditure of more than 28,000 Cruzeiro. Workers may not be willing to spend this part of their wages to buy this kind of medical insurance! " Fang Lang also understands that many workers may rather put money in their own pockets than buy this kind of medical insurance. Even Chen Hongqing in front of him probably had the same idea. Fang Lang had expected this, nodded and said: "Let''s do this! I''ll discuss it with the insurance company first, and if we can reach an agreement, we''ll talk later. If workers do not want to participate in insurance, we can also allow workers to choose freely. After I have settled this matter with the insurance company, let the trade union come forward to raise it! " (end of this chapter) Chapter 284: Mr. Mayors Ambition Chapter 284 Mr. Mayor''s Ambition Mayor Ewald Dursley didn''t understand Fang Lang''s thoughts very much, so he took the initiative to ask: "General Fang, why are you willing to let your company pay an extra fee to help workers pay for medical insurance? Shouldnt these be purchased by the workers themselves? " Fang Lang''s original idea was actually to add some patients to the hospital, but after learning that most people did not have the opportunity to enjoy medical services, he was very surprised, so he also hoped that he could do something for everyone. It is impossible to immigrate all the Chinese, and end up in a more miserable situation than in their hometown, because they have no way to enjoy medical services! So, the first way he thought of was to buy medical insurance. But he didn''t know whether Brazil''s medical insurance had such a product, so he could only ask Chen Hongqing for his opinion first. In fact, what Fang Lang didn''t know was that Brazil, a later generation, proposed the idea of ??free medical care for all in 1964, and included free medical care for all in the constitution in 1988. Although the policy is a good policy, the government that can implement the policy is not a reliable government. Corruption and embezzlement of funds have led to outdated medical facilities in Brazil and a lack of doctors. Although the poor can enjoy free medical care, many patients cannot enjoy timely treatment services at all because of the shortage of public hospitals and insufficient equipment, shortage of beds, and overcrowded hospitals. When the new crown broke out in later generations, Brazil directly chose to lie flat, and the number of infections among Brazilians could not be accurately counted. Ordinary people cannot receive effective treatment after being infected with the new crown, and the medical system has almost collapsed. After people could not get effective treatment from public hospitals, they turned to private hospitals at their own expense, which further promoted the vigorous development of private hospitals. Most wealthy people in Brazil enjoy more intimate medical services in private hospitals through the private medical insurance services they purchase. Hearing Mayor Ewald Dursley''s question, of course Fang Lang couldn''t answer directly to add patients to the hospital. So, without hesitation, he said: Everyone in Brazil has the right to health care, doesnt they? Mr. Mayor, as a politician, was greatly shocked after hearing Fang Lang''s words, and said with blessings to his soul: "Fang, you are so right, every Brazilian citizen should have the right to enjoy medical services. How do you think I will use this slogan as my next campaign slogan? " Fang Lang looked at Mr. Mayor Ewald Dursley dumbfounded. He didn''t expect this guy to turn his mind so fast. No wonder he was elected mayor of Natal twice in a row. But this idea is not harmful to Fang Lang. After all, he already owns a pharmaceutical factory, and his girlfriend is a medical student. He plans to set up a private hospital for him. If Mr. Mayor can really promote the government to provide more people with medical insurance, Fang Lang certainly won''t mind. "Mr. Mayor, are you serious? But I think this slogan should not be used in the election of the mayor of Natal, but should be used directly in the presidential election. What, is Mr. Ewald Dursley interested in running for President of Brazil? " In fact, this is a joke by Fang Lang. After all, he remembers very clearly that Brazil''s next president is Vargas. But after hearing Fang Lang''s words, Ewald Dursley began to shine his eyes, looked at Fang Lang without blinking and said: "Fang, you are right, this topic is not suitable for the mayoral election. Will you help me run for the president of Brazil? " As a member of the Social Democratic Party, Ewald Dursley is very aware of Fang Lang''s influence on the Social Democratic Party, although this influence has not yet reached its maximum level. But as time goes by, the size and status of the Nice company grows, and Fang Lang''s influence on the Social Democratic Party will also become greater and greater. Otherwise, why did President Dutra ask Fang Lang, the Rear Admiral, to meet in private to seek support? Fang Lang didn''t expect a joke to make Ewald Dursley take it seriously. However, it is indeed a very challenging thing to support a person of his own to become the President of Brazil, Fang Lang. Seriously looking at Ewald Dursley in front of him, he began to think about the real feasibility of this matter. The more Fang Lang thinks about it, the more interesting he finds it. What could be more challenging than becoming a master behind the scenes and controlling the political direction of a country! But I am a Chinese. The proportion of Chinese population in Brazil is too low, and there are many things that cannot be done too much. If it is too radical, it may affect the living environment of the entire Chinese community in Brazil. Treating this matter as a long-term goal is a very good choice! "Are you sure about yourself?" After all, not everyone can be the president, nor can he be successful just by relying on Ewald Dursley''s own wishful thinking, with just a single mouth, he must have political achievements that he can show. Ewald Dursley was also blessed after hearing Fang Lang''s words, and the thoughts that popped up in his mind were not carefully thought out. Asked by Fang Lang, he couldn''t help but start thinking seriously. If you want to be elected president, of course you must have your own governing program and achievements. But these Ewald Dursleys obviously dont have them. You cant just run for the election if you want all Brazilians to enjoy medical services! How to enjoy medical services? How many capitalists, like Fang Lang, will agree to spend an extra amount of funds from their factory to buy medical insurance for the workers? If I really use this method to give a campaign speech, it is estimated that all capitalists will vote against me. Without the support of capitalists, it is almost impossible to be elected president. Of course, if he is really very talkative, it is not impossible to fool the whole of Brazil. But I obviously don''t have such a lip service. So, I can only shake my head dejectedly. Chen Hongqing, who was sitting on the side listening to the exchange between the two, was in a cold sweat at the moment. It is related to the presidential candidate of a country, is it a topic that I, a worker, can listen to? After all, in the hometown of this era, not everyone can discuss the head of state. The idea of ??official standard for thousands of years made Chen Hongqing naturally bow down to officials. But now I hear my boss and the mayor of Natal discussing in front of me whether I want to be the president of Brazil. Isn''t this similar to plotting rebellion? Will not be silenced! Fang Lang didn''t pay attention to Chen Hongqing''s reaction either. Seeing Ewald Dursley shaking his head, he smiled and said: "Mr. Ewald Dursley is not without a chance, think about what the original Natal was like. What is Natal like now? Two days ago, Mr. President, in front of me, praised your achievements in Natal. If you can revive Natal, you might have a chance to compete! " Ewald Dursley heard Fang Lang''s words, his eyelids twitched, and after swallowing hard, he said: "Yes, I am implementing according to your plan!" Hearing this, Fang Lang was very happy, Ewald Dursley is a real person! I gave this credit to myself in front of the president last time, and I still havent taken this credit for myself. Fang Lang is more at ease supporting such a person. But being so honest seems to have the qualities that a qualified politician should possess! Fang Lang patted Ewald Dursley''s arm and said: "I''m in the military and have no interest in that position nor in the credit. So, that''s your credit and planning see? " Actually, what Fang Lang said was not really to support Ewald Dursley to run for president, but to hope that he would pay more attention to his plan for Natal and implement it seriously. Let Fangyuan Group get enough return on its investment in Natal, truly build Natal into a developed coastal city, and have a good environment after walking out of the naval base. If Ewald Dursley goes to run for the election, facing Vargas, the former president who has great reputation in Brazil, and even the current president supported by Americans loses, Fang Lang doesn''t think he has a chance of winning. More importantly, the Labor Party founded by Vargas has developed very rapidly in recent years. Although Fang Lang''s Fangyuan Group established its own trade union in time, which reduced the penetration of labor party organizations within the Fangyuan Group, other companies still established trade unions. This organization has collected a lot of grassroots votes for the Labor Party, unless the Social Democratic Party and the National League also learn from the Labor Party and win over workers and peasants at the bottom. But this is obviously contrary to the basic principles of these two parties. No wonder the Brazilian government was taken over by the military in 1964 and all political parties were banned. But after the military was decentralized in 1985, the Labor Party was re-established immediately and occupied the vast majority of seats, while the Social Democratic Party and the National League slowly disappeared. In Fang Lang''s eyes, the Labor Party is not his enemy. On the contrary, the Labor Party is the target of his active infiltration, which is also the purpose of his establishment of his own company''s trade union. One day when a suitable candidate appears, Fang Lang can let him bring the trade union organization of the Fangyuan Group to join the Labor Party, and take the opportunity to gain the Labor Party''s right to speak. The time is not ripe now, because the current Labor Party is Vargas'' Labor Party, which is not a democratic organization. After joining, he must obey Vargas'' command, and Fang Lang does not object to Vargas'' rule, because he is a pragmatist, and he will support as long as it is beneficial to him. Including his original intention of establishing the Labor Party, he took a fancy to the votes in the hands of the majority of workers. His Labor Party should actually be called the Industrial Party. Unlike the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, it is a bourgeois party through and through. It was just to win votes and learn some practices of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, such as the establishment of a large number of state-owned enterprises and the establishment of trade unions. It''s a pity that this situation breeds more corruption, which is why he was forced to commit suicide soon after he came to power again. But he is also a mature leader with many years of dictatorial experience, and he will not follow the advice of others in many things. If Fang Lang joins his camp, he may lose his autonomy and become his vassal, which Fang Lang cannot accept. Ewald Dursley obviously didn''t understand Fang Lang''s thoughts, and thought that Fang Lang really wanted to support him in the presidential election, and said with a trembling voice: "Do I really have a chance?" Fang Lang smiled and said: Everyone has the opportunity to run for president, the important thing is whether they will act. If you really want to run for president, the first thing to do is to change the status quo in Natal and let everyone see your ability to govern. Then, its up to you to convince the people in your party to back your candidacy. I can only offer some ballot help, you know what I mean? " Such a big matter is of course not something that Fang Lang can decide now. Ewald Dursley also knows this very well in his heart. Brazil is not someone''s Brazil, and it is not because of someone''s support that he will definitely become president. (end of this chapter) Chapter 285: Skill Rating and Chinese Food Chapter 285 Skill Rating and Chinese Food Fang Lang''s words are also to pick himself out first. It is his right to want to be president, and it is his courage to dare to take this step. But whether he can succeed depends on his own ability and luck. It is impossible to make Fang Lang responsible for his actions. The meaning was expressed very clearly, and Ewald Dursley nodded after listening and said: "I understand, I have to go back and think about it." Smiling and patted Ewald Dursley''s arm, Fang Lang looked at Chen Hongqing again. At this time, I realized that Chen Hongqing''s face turned pale. He thought it was because of his poor health, so he hurriedly asked: "Old Chen, what''s wrong with you? Is there something wrong with your body?" Chen Hongqing swallowed hard, and said with difficulty: "Old. Boss, I''m fine. That''s it" Listening to Chen Hongqing''s trembling voice, and seeing his eyes keep looking at himself and Ewald Dursley, Fang Lang probably understood what the other party was thinking. smiled and said: "Haha, Lao Chen, don''t think too much. The topic of our discussion is normal. This is Brazil, not my hometown. Anyone here can participate in the presidential election. If one day you become a Brazilian and want to enter politics, you have a chance. " Chen Hongqing looked at Fang Lang''s expression seriously, and it really didn''t look like he was lying. The stone in my heart was slowly released. quietly breathed a sigh of relief, but still asked uncomfortably: "Boss, make sure we''re not conspiring to rebel!" Hearing this, Fang Lang laughed louder, and it took a long time to breathe again and said: "Don''t worry! Old Chen, it''s not considered a rebellion in Brazil. You should hurry up and learn Portuguese. After reading the newspapers, you will know that this kind of discussion is okay. By the way, do all the workers in our factory go to study classes? " Chen Hongqing checked the expressions of the two of them repeatedly, and after confirming that they were not lying, he nodded and said: Yes, our factory has evening classes, and workers are arranged to attend the study every day. Now most of us Chinese are able to communicate with locals in Portuguese. " Hearing that only the Chinese were learning, Fang Lang couldn''t help asking: "Didn''t the local workers participate in the study?" Chen Hongqing spread his hands and said: Our classrooms are open to all workers, but the locals, whether they are literate or not, dont seem to be keen on it. In fact, the local Indians and blacks, I dont know if its a personality problem or why, they are indeed somewhat lacking in enthusiasm for learning compared to the Chinese. This is a common phenomenon, and Fang Lang knows it well. But Brazil''s electoral system is very clear, only non-literate people have the right to vote. Fang Lang set up a trade union to gather the workers around him for the purpose of using the votes in the hands of the workers for his own use in the future. It is impossible for everyone not to learn. After thinking about it. Fang Lang said: "Let''s do this! In the future, all workers in our company will be paid according to the principle of more pay for more work, and we will also organize workers to take skill rating exams. I will let the group''s personnel department study carefully. In addition to assessing the skills of the workers, cultural subjects are also included in the skill rating of this worker. Only when the culture and skills meet certain standards, we will issue grade certificates to workers. Workers with higher grades have higher wages and bonuses than workers with lower grades, so as to promote everyone''s enthusiasm for learning. " Chen Hongqing still didn''t understand Fang Lang''s purpose for doing this. After all, in his opinion, the most important thing about the skills of textile workers is the dexterity of their hands and feet, and what makes perfect. The faster a worker is, the more efficient he is and the more products he produces, his salary will definitely be higher than that of a novice. There is no need to do this skill rating at all. However, since the other party is the boss, and the boss has already said so, it must be done according to the boss''s request. "Okay, boss. Dont worry, our Chinese brothers are still quite motivated to learn. I will definitely urge you to actively participate in the learning organized by the factory. " Fang Lang looked at the time, and said to Ewald Dursley: "Mr. Mayor, are you interested in experiencing the meals of our factory workers?" As early as he heard that the chefs in the factory made Chinese food, Fang Lang wanted to try the taste. Ewald Dursley didn''t refuse when he heard Fang Lang''s words, and nodded with a smile: "Of course, this is also part of our inspection work, isn''t it?" When Chen Hongqing heard that the boss wanted to eat in the canteen, he smiled and didn''t mind at all. After all, in his mind, the food in the canteen of Daqing Spinning Factory was quite good. Not to mention the combination of meat and vegetables, there are big fish and meat for the workers to choose every day. The chef who is in charge of cooking is also a chef in his hometown, and the food he cooks is very good in his opinion. Except that he was a little worried about the noisy environment in the cafeteria, he wasn''t worried at all. Under the guidance of Chen Hongqing, a group of people went to the canteen of the factory. The size of the canteen is not particularly large, and it can accommodate two or three hundred people eating at the same time. After all, the workers in the factory want to ensure that the machine does not stop, so everyone comes to eat in batches. At this time, there were already workers eating in the cafeteria. Seeing the factory manager bring the boss and his party into the cafeteria, they cast surprised glances. When seeing the boss eating in the cafeteria like them, everyone was even more surprised. After all, in everyone''s mind, the boss should eat delicacies from mountains and seas, but they didn''t expect to come to the cafeteria to eat the same food as them. However, the lives of workers in this era are generally difficult, and it is already very good to be able to eat this kind of greasy food in the cafeteria. At this moment, everyone thought that the boss usually ate such food, and everyone felt an indescribable sense of pride in their hearts. "Hmm! Old Chen, this chef''s skills are good! The big pot of rice can make such a taste, which is quite good. " "Haha. Boss, as long as you like it. Our chef originally opened a restaurant in Jinmen, so there is nothing to say about his craftsmanship. " After finally eating the taste of his hometown again, Fang Lang also let go of his hands and feet, and started eating and drinking. Ewald Dursley may have eaten Chinese food for the first time, and he ate it with relish. Fang Lang looked up again. There were many locals among the dining crowd. Everyone is obviously very satisfied with the Chinese food provided by the cafeteria. Fang Lang''s heart moved, he thought for a while and said: "Mr. Mayor, how do you like Chinese food?" Ewald Dursley just put a big mouthful of rice mixed with sauce into his mouth, and he really didn''t have time to answer Fang Lang''s question, so he stretched out his hand and gave a big thumbs up. After Fang Lang saw it, he couldn''t help but let out a knowing smile, and turned his head to Chen Hongqing and said: "You just said that the chef in the factory opened a restaurant in Jinmen?" "Yes, boss. Several chefs in our kitchen turned out to be the masters of Jinmen Deyilou. The person in charge of managing the cafeteria is the original shopkeeper of Deyilou. " After listening to Chen Hongqing''s words, Fang Lang nodded, and couldn''t help thinking in his heart that the Chinese restaurants that bloomed all over the world later, this is another Chinese business card besides Kung Fu. After thinking about it, he said: "What''s the name of the shopkeeper, you call him over, I''ll talk to him." Chen Hongqing nodded, didn''t say much, got up directly, and soon brought a middle-aged man in his forties over. "Boss, this is the steward of our cafeteria, named Qin Degui." Qin Degui obviously knew Fang Lang too, and stood aside a little awkwardly. After Chen Hongqing finished introducing himself, he bent slightly towards Fang Lang, nodded and said: "Boss, hello, I''m Qin Degui." Fang Lang looked up and down at the middle-aged man in front of him, smiled and pointed to the seat opposite and said: "Brother Qin, please sit down! I heard that you used to run a restaurant in Jinmen? " Qin Degui wiped the non-existent stains on his body with both hands, and then sat down slowly. When Fang Lang asked about his original occupation, his eyes were slightly red. As if recalling the original time, perhaps remembering that the occasion was not right, he quickly restrained his emotions and said: "Yes, boss. When my grandfather was around, he opened the Deyilou Hotel beside the Wanguo Bridge in Jinmen, which is the third generation in my hands. It''s a pity that the descendants are unfilial, failed to keep the ancestral property, and feel ashamed of the ancestors. " Fang Lang also understood that this was another ordinary person who had been mistreated by the little devil. "Are all your chefs in the kitchen formerly your buddies?" Qin Degui nodded and said: "Originally there were more than ten of us, but now there are only six of us left. This is thanks to the boss''s life-saving grace. If it weren''t for you, maybe we would have rotted in the mine in obscurity. " Seeing Qin Degui''s slightly grateful expression, Fang Lang nodded and continued: "I want you to open another Deyilou in downtown Natal. I don''t know if you are interested." Obviously he didn''t expect Fang Lang to come up with such an idea, Qin Degui''s expression froze, and he looked at Fang Lang in disbelief. Fang Lang also looked at Qin Degui encouragingly, smiled, and continued: "I can support Lao Chen in reopening Daqing Cotton Mill, why can''t I support you in reopening Deyilou?" Qin Degui said excitedly: "But, boss, there are not many Chinese here, and we may not have many guests! If we don''t have customers, we will lose money. " Fang Lang smiled and pointed to Ewald Dursley on the opposite side: "You can see that our big pot dishes can conquer Mr. Mayor, let alone more delicate dishes. Moreover, I will often bring some people to take care of your business, and slowly cultivate the atmosphere of eating Chinese food. However, the taste of the local people will be a bit spicy, so you should pay attention to it. " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Qin Degui''s eyes were a little bright, but he turned his head and said a little nervously: "Boss, there is another problem, many vegetables in our hometown are not available here. Just to let the workers in the factory eat fresh vegetables, I have been completely troubled. " Fang Lang didn''t expect this, but when he thought about it carefully, it seemed that there was such a thing, especially the green vegetables that Chinese people like to eat, which are really lacking in Brazil. Soon Fang Lang thought of a way again, smiled and said to Qin Degui: "It doesn''t matter, I will ask people to collect some seeds of various vegetables from my hometown, and then we can grow them in Brazil by ourselves! There are already Chinese villages in the suburbs of Natal, and you can also sign a purchase and sale contract with them. After being planted by them, it will be delivered to your restaurant! " Fang Lang''s words slowly dispelled Qin Degui''s concerns, and after glancing at Chen Hongqing beside him, he said: "But, if we go to open a restaurant, what about the canteen of the cotton mill?" Before Fang Lang could answer, Chen Hongqing smiled and said: "What does it matter, you can take advantage of this time to help me train a few new chefs! Among us Chinese, there are still some who can cook. And, recently, I am also planning to recruit two chefs who can know Brazilian cuisine. The number of local workers is more than that of us Chinese, although we all think Chinese food is delicious. But there are still some local workers who want to eat some local tastes. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 286: Telephone Chapter 286 Telephone There is no problem seeing Chen Hongqing, and of course Qin Degui will not object. nodded slightly excitedly. Seeing this, Fang Lang said to Mayor Ewald Dursley, who was still buried in cooking: "Mr. Mayor, I would like to trouble you to help me choose a piece of land suitable for opening a restaurant in downtown Natal. I want to invest in our Mr. Qin Degui to open a Chinese restaurant in Natal - Deyilou. " Ewald Dursley, of course, would not have any hesitation about this small request, and directly patted his chest to assure: "No problem, Mr. Qin, you can come to the city hall to find me tomorrow, and I will personally pick a good place for you. When your restaurant opens, you must give me a discount when I go to eat. " After speaking, he burst out laughing. Qin Degui was a shopkeeper after all. Although he spoke with a strong Portuguese accent, he was still able to express his meaning clearly. "Mr. Mayor, don''t worry, if you come to eat, we will definitely give you the lowest discount. When it opens, please be sure to condescend and come to the opening ceremony. " Fang Lang laughed loudly when he saw this situation: "Alright then, I will leave this matter to you, Qin Degui. Remember that the location of the hotel should be planned larger, not directly facing the street, and some parking lots should be reserved. Otherwise, when the time comes, the mayor will bring the city government officials to dinner, and it would be bad if there is no parking place. Also, I hope that the Deyi Building will be a Chinese-style building, and the building should be grand enough. For specific construction matters, you can consult the construction company of the group company. " "Okay, boss." Qin Degui looked at Fang Lang gratefully, and was very excited. His ancestral proud building will soon be able to blossom in Brazil, hoping to be worthy of his ancestors. After eating, Fang Lang finally left the Daqing Spinning Factory contentedly. Fang Lang, who returned to the naval base, patted his swollen belly, and was lying on the desk drinking the tea made by Qi Qingshan. Taking stock of today''s harvest. I was about to pick up the phone on the desk to discuss medical insurance with my father. The phone on the desktop rang first, Fang Lang laughed dumbfounded, and picked up the phone casually. "Hello! I''m Fang Lang." An unfamiliar voice came from the phone, saying in a slightly respectful tone: "Hello, General Fang! This is Orenz Rivien, Senior Director of Investigations, Department of Justice. is in charge of investigating your attack in S?o Paulo. " Fang Lang frowned when he heard the identity of the other party, and said calmly: "Hello, is there any result of the investigation?" The voice on the other side froze, and said with a little embarrassment: "Uh! I''m very sorry, General Fang, we are still investigating, and there is no clear result yet. I called you today because the first suspect, Mr. Sebastio Hodges, asked to see you. " Fang Lang is actually very clear about the progress and situation of the investigation by the Bureau of Justice. Since Sheriff Worawee Geller, one of the murderers, was shot dead by the killer, the investigation of the entire case has come to a standstill. After screening all insiders, the Ministry of Justice did not find any problems. I began to suspect that there was something wrong with the personnel in several other investigation agencies. More time is spent investigating moles than investigating assassination cases. Fang Lang declined to comment on this practice of the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice. On the contrary, Zhong Ze from the investigation department of Fangyuan Group expressed to Fang Lang that he suspected that some important figures from the Brazilian Ministry of Justice participated in Fang Lang''s assassination, even if they were not directly instigated, they were also important participants. Fang Lang actually didn''t agree with Zhong Ze''s suspicion, because he had never dealt with people from the Ministry of Justice, and logically speaking, it was impossible to offend people from the Ministry of Justice. However, he had to have doubts about what happened after the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice intervened, and his intuition also told him that there should be problems with the Ministry of Justice. Regarding Zhong Ze''s statement that he would investigate the investigation team members of the Ministry of Justice, he did not directly deny it. However, considering that people from the investigation department of the Fangyuan Group go to investigate the staff of the national law enforcement agencies, once they are discovered, the consequences may be very serious. So, just allow them to investigate on the periphery, don''t go too deep, so as not to be discovered. Although they can be easily rescued by Fang Lang''s means, it is easy to implement the facts, which is not good for the future development of the Chinese community. "Oh! Did Mr. Sebastio Hodges say why he wanted to see me?" Fang Lang''s heart moved, the time has passed, so that, before Mr. Sebastio Hodges was imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice, he was able to send information to the outside world. But after being imprisoned in the Ministry of Justice, there is no way to get in touch with the outside world. It seems that Mr. Sebastio Hodges has thought of some clues, but why is he unwilling to tell the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice directly? Instead, he asked to see himself. It seems that the clue Mr. Sebastio Hodges thought of has something to do with the Ministry of Justice! Because Sebastio Hodges can only have access to people from the Ministry of Justice, if he asks to see other people, the Ministry of Justice will definitely not agree. Only if he offered to see himself as a victim, it is impossible for the Ministry of Justice to refuse. If it is not the clue that may involve the Ministry of Justice, Sebastio Hodges can just disclose it to the Ministry of Justice directly, and there is no need to explain it to himself. Of course, there is also a situation where this call is simply a trap. Because the Ministry of Justice already had major suspicions, since the first assassination failed, it is not surprising to use Sebastio Hodges'' wanting to see himself as a reason to create an assassination opportunity. Fang Lang thought about it and tentatively said: "Oh! Did you say a specific meeting time?" The voice on the opposite side said directly without any hesitation: "General Fang, you are busy with official duties, so you don''t need to take this kind of suspect''s request for an interview too seriously. It is no problem to come over anytime. If you dont have time to come, I can help you directly reject his request for an interview. " From the expression and tone of the other party, Fang Lang didn''t hear anything suspicious. "Okay then! Tell him, I''m busy recently, and I''ll go to Sao Paulo to see him when I have time." "Okay, General Fang. Then leave your work alone. " The other party seemed very polite. After hanging up the phone, Fang Lang lay down on the office chair again, and began to carefully recall when he had conflicts with whoever in the Ministry of Justice. But no matter how hard he racked his brains, he couldn''t find any ideas. Just when Fang Lang was puzzled, the phone on the table rang again. I couldn''t help feeling strange, what happened this afternoon, people kept calling the office directly to find me, how did they know that I must be in the office this afternoon? After the phone rang three times, Fang Lang still picked up the phone on the table. "Hello! Hello! I''m Fang Lang." Just after introducing his identity, Fang Lang heard a burst of hearty laughter from the phone. "Haha. General Fang, I''m Nero Mora, didn''t I bother you, did I?" Of course Fang Lang is familiar with the name. This is the Brazilian Air Force Minister who has just been promoted to the rank of major general like himself. But the two of them didn''t have much contact with each other. Of course, the origins of the ten pilots under his command have been automatically ignored. The only meeting was at the aircraft carrier commissioning party two days ago. Why did you suddenly call yourself? You can''t be staring at the plane in my hand! Fang Lang immediately became vigilant. "Haha. So it''s General Nero Mora, glad to hear from you. I happen to be free at this time, so please speak up if you have anything to say. " Regarding this sudden call, Fang Lang chose to learn the habits of foreigners and cut to the chase. General Nero Mora is obviously not a person who likes to beat around the bush, so he said directly: "Haha. General Fang, I don''t know if I''m free tonight. I''d like to invite you to have a meal together." This was beyond Fang Lang''s expectations. The day after the aircraft carrier enlisted dinner, almost all the guests who attended the banquet had already left Natal. Unexpectedly, the other party would choose to meet Fang Lang at this time. Could it be that the other party has not left Natal for the past two days? What is his purpose for meeting him? What is he doing in Natal these two days? Fang Lang was full of doubts. But of course Fang Lang would not refuse the Minister of the Air Force''s initiative to make friends. directly agreed without hesitation: "No problem at all. But since Your Excellency the General has arrived in Natal, I must be the one to fulfill the friendship of the landlord. If you don''t mind, how about having dinner at my house tonight? " Whether you are abroad or at home, inviting friends to your home is definitely more intimate than inviting customers to a restaurant for dinner. Fang Lang is not married yet, so he lives in the officer''s villa area of ??the naval base. Also, it was because Fang Lang was not married that Fang Lang invited him to his house. Otherwise, if he is married, Fang Lang is not willing to let his wife take the guests to bathe together according to the Brazilian custom. Neiro Mora seemed very happy that Fang Lang could invite himself to be a guest at home, and laughed loudly: "General Fang, thank you for your invitation. Then we''ll see you tonight. " "Haha. See you tonight, General Mora." After hanging up the phone, Fang Lang notified Qi Qingshan again, asking him to borrow two chefs from the Daqing Spinning Factory to cook two dishes for himself. It is used to entertain Mr. Secretary of the Navy. Fang Lang has now decided that he will use Chinese food to entertain his guests in the future. In this way, Chinese food can be promoted among the upper circles of the Brazilian army. As long as these big shots like Chinese food, "what is said is good, what is said will be true." The people below will also start to like Chinese food, which is a process of cultural output that nourishes everything silently. It is day and night, Natal Naval Base, in Fang Lang''s officer''s villa. "General Fang, I heard that your Air Force pilots are very short!" Major General Nero Mora, who had finished enjoying Chinese food, was sitting in a Kung Fu tea room specially set up by Fang Lang, drinking tea and chatting with Fang Lang. Fang Lang was not in a hurry to answer the other party''s question, but was adding olive charcoal to his small red clay stove. A small copper kettle on a small stove was steaming hotly. Seeing Fang Lang after the water boiled, he was fiddling with a set of purple sand pot tea sets on the huge tea table made of whole piece of mahogany. casually said: "Haha, General Mora, this is asking knowingly. Does your air force have pilots who can support me? " General Mora looked at Fang Lang''s specially furnished tea room full of Chinese style with some curiosity. Watching him scald the teacup with freshly boiled water. I dont know why, but I feel a special sense of ritual and a unique charm, which makes people relax unconsciously. Regarding Fang Lang''s ridicule, he said indifferently: "Haha. General Fang just laughed. You don''t know the situation of our air force, so what pilots can support you? Everyone knows the situation of your fully parked aircraft carrier and your air team with only ten pilots. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 287: Invite the Secretary of the Air Force to have tea Chapter 287 Invite the Minister of the Air Force to taste tea Hearing what Major General Nero Mora said, Fang Lang just smiled. What the other party said is indeed true. Not only the personnel in the Brazilian army know it clearly, but I believe people in neighboring countries also know it clearly. After ironing the tea set, Fang Lang took out a can of tea leaves from under the tea table, scooped out a large spoonful of tea and put it into the teapot, brewed it with boiling water, and soon a scent of tea wafted out. This made Major General Nero Mora''s nose twitch. Fang Lang smelled the fragrance from the tea mountain, and said meaningfully: "Then General Mora, are you here for my vacant plane?" Unexpectedly, Major General Nairo Mora waved his hand and said: "No, no, your plane is not suitable for me, except of course the transport plane. But I''m not here for your plane. I heard you''re going to start an aviation school, is that true? " This was really beyond Fang Lang''s expectation. He kept moving his hands, while pouring the first brew of tea into the justice cup, and then pouring the tea water into two teacups with the justice cup. After looking up at Major General Nairo Mora, he nodded slowly and said: "Yes, I am known for my lack of qualified pilots. I can''t continue to poach you, so I can only find a way to cultivate it myself. " This is also Fang Lang''s helpless move. The Brazilian Air Force was built from scratch with the support of the Americans, but there are not as many flying clubs in the United Kingdom and the United States, which provide a steady stream of pilots. The Brazilian Navy''s need for an aircraft carrier is very urgent, which has resulted in the current situation where it has equipment but no naval aviation. "How about taking our air force with you? I mean, the Air Force and Hainan Airlines jointly established this aviation school, which is jointly managed by us, and the students after graduation are divided equally by both of us. " Major General Nero Mora was talking about his thoughts, while staring at the movements of Fang Lang''s hands, a little reluctant to leave. I always feel that Fang Lang''s movements have a unique charm. The fragrance of the tea leaves made him, who was already full just now, subconsciously want to try the taste. But Fang Lang used a tong to pour the tea that had just been poured into the teacup onto a palm-sized purple sand tea pet on the tea tray. This tea pet was in the shape of a tiger charm during the Warring States Period. This whole set of tea sets was collected for him by Xin Shiliang, who he arranged to serve as the director of the secretariat of Fangyuan Group. As for where he got it, Fang Lang doesn''t know, but he has to say that a person who has been an office director has really achieved the pinnacle of trying to figure out Shangyi. This tea pet is really hard to put down for Fang Lang, a soldier. Fang Lang kept moving his hands, but he was thinking about the other party''s intentions in his heart. I have great expectations for this aviation academy, and the preparatory work has already been done in sevens and eighties, including the trainer aircraft purchased from the United States, and the teachers in the United States have been recruited. As long as the personnel are in place, you can start training pilots directly at the airport in your own naval base. And at this time, Major General Nero Mora came to seek cooperation, and he wanted to jointly manage and divide the students equally. Isn''t Fang Lang at a loss? Major General Nero Mora saw that Fang Lang did not speak, and poured the poured tea on the tea pet instead of drinking it for himself, thinking that Fang Lang was expressing dissatisfaction with his words. Cough twice: "What kind of tea is this? It smells so good." Fang Lang smiled and said: "Biluochun." Major General Nero Mora imitated Fang Lang''s accent and asked: "Biluochun, um! Why did you pour the tea to this little tiger first?" Fang Lang didn''t care what the other party was thinking, since he asked himself about the tea ceremony, he just happened to spread the tea ceremony culture. smiled and said: "It is not necessary to pour it to this little tiger first, the water for making tea for the first time is to rinse the tea leaves. So, we don''t drink. As for this little tiger, it is a small toy. " It is impossible to say too profoundly to a foreigner Fang Lang, and he himself only has a half-knowledge, so it is almost enough to explain some superficial reasons clearly. Major General Nairo Mora was relieved when he heard that he didn''t drink the first tea, and he was not dissatisfied with himself. Immediately showed the original expression and said: "Oh I got it." Fang Lang picked up the kettle again and filled the teapot with water. He poured the tea from the teapot into the justice cup, and then poured it into two small teacups. Only then handed one of the cups to Major General Nero Mora, and made a gesture of please. Major General Nero Mora looked at the small teacup in front of him, which was not enough for a sip of tea, and then looked at Fang Lang who had already picked up the teacup and was smelling the fragrance of the tea. took another small sip. also hurriedly imitated Fang Lang''s appearance and did it again. When this sip of tea entered his throat, his eyes lit up. Involuntarily gave a thumbs up. Fang Lang saw this, smiled, and drank the tea in the cup in one gulp before saying: "Your Excellency the General just proposed now that we want to jointly establish an aviation academy with our navy, isn''t it too late? For the teachers of our Naval Aviation Academy, the teaching equipment is almost ready. We have already recruited even the students. At this time, your Air Force wants to participate, and you have to directly share the graduates with us, isn''t it inappropriate? " Major General Nero Mora was not annoyed when he heard Fang Lang''s words, and laughed loudly: "Haha. General Fang, don''t get me wrong, I definitely don''t mean to take advantage of the fire to rob. We will never compete with you for the first batch of pilots, after all, your aircraft carrier is really short of pilots. I learned that your Naval Aviation Academy mainly uses the airport facilities of your naval base for student training. But as far as I know, your airport has passenger planes landing here. This may have a certain impact on the flight safety of passenger aircraft. How about our air force applying with you, re-selecting the site, and building a special aviation training school? Since you already have the equipment and personnel, our Air Force will find a way to secure the land and build the school. After the new school is built, transfer your equipment and personnel there, and let this aviation school become the cradle of aviation for our naval and air forces. What do you think? " Hearing what Major General Nero Mora said, Fang Lang began to think in his heart that this is a good opportunity. Owning part of the management rights of the school, you can recruit Chinese students, and then you can logically assign some Chinese colleges to the Air Force. So as to achieve the purpose of allowing Chinese to enter the Air Force. And since the other party proposed that they were responsible for securing the land and building the school building, it was obviously not for taking advantage of it. Although taking advantage is not taking advantage of oneself, as an admiral, it would be bad if people in the navy say that they use the navy''s military expenses to help the air force train pilots. The idea of ??the other party is of course not harmful to Fang Lang. First of all, being able to participate in the construction and management of this school will have a certain influence on the future Brazilian Air Force pilots. Think about why Chang Kaishen from his hometown likes to be the principal? Actually, Rear Admiral Nairo Mora should not have talked to himself about this matter. The other party is the Minister of the Air Force, and he is just a fleet commander. Only General Crook has the same status as him, and he can come to him in person and ask his opinion first, which is respect for himself. It is also a show of favor to himself. Fang Lang has always liked to make friends very much, and hopes to spread his friends all over Brazil''s military, political and business circles. So, of course, Fang Lang could not turn a blind eye to the goodwill expressed by Major General Nero Mora. "Haha, Your Excellency General, this is a good thing! I am all for it. But I decided on this kind of thing, you''d better discuss it with our Secretary of the Navy, General Crook. I can''t be such a big master. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Major General Nero Mora laughed and said: "Haha. Of course, this matter must be approved by General Fang before I can discuss it with General Crook! Moreover, the consent of the Ministry of Defense and the Ministry of Education must be obtained at that time. If, without the consent of General Fang, I can''t directly discuss with General Crook. " It''s no wonder that others can become the Minister of the Air Force with such a low military rank. Fang Lang''s ears are really comfortable when he hears this. It seems that Major General Nero Mora is also a man of all abilities! Fang Lang was also infected by the other party and laughed, and added tea for the other party again: "Haha. Your Excellency General, please drink tea." I believe that General Crook will not refuse this matter. After all, it will not cause much loss to the navy. With the current scale of naval aviation, it is actually a bit wasteful to build a full-time aviation school alone. . With the Air Force coming forward to help him share some expenses, of course he will not be rejected, but Fang Lang estimates that there will definitely be some competition for the school''s dominance by then. But no matter how you fight, you will definitely have some management rights in this school. After all, the trainers and teachers are all your own, and no one can get rid of yourself and do it alone. For Fang Lang, this is enough. Fang Lang thought that the matter should be over when it got here, and for the rest of the time, the two of them just talked about other topics to get emotional. Unexpectedly, Major General Nairo Mora continued to speak after drinking a cup of tea: "General Fang, as far as I know, your family''s Fangyuan Group has established an aircraft modification factory in Sao Paulo, right?" Hearing this, Fang Lang''s heart moved, and the light in his eyes flashed. It seems that there is a business coming to the door! After swallowing the tea in his mouth, Fang Lang nodded with a smile and said: "Yes, Your Excellency General is very well informed. The last time I went to Sao Paulo, I attended the opening ceremony of this factory." Major General Nero Mora also looked at Fang Lang with a smile on his face and said: "General Fang, this aircraft modification factory should not simply modify commercial aircraft!" Before Fang Lang went to sell the business, the Minister of the Air Force had already taken the initiative to come to the door. Of course Fang Lang would not hide it, after all, this person in front of him is a big customer. "Haha. Of course not, I dug a few very good fighter designers from Germany. Among them are Dr. Tan Ke, who designed and manufactured the FW190 Shrike fighter jet, and the Horton Brothers, who designed and manufactured the HO-229 bomber fighter jet. " Major General Nero Mora obviously didn''t hear the news. After hearing what Fang Lang said casually, he jumped up from the stool. Looking at Fang Lang incredulously, he said: "General Fang, are you serious?" Looking at the excited Major General Nero Mora, Fang Lang nodded with a smile and said: "Your Excellency, don''t get excited, sit down and let''s talk slowly. How could I possibly joke with you about this kind of thing? If your Excellency the General needs, I can take the General to visit our factory at any time. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 288: ministers purpose Chapter 288 Minister''s Purpose Hearing Fang Lang''s affirmative answer, Major General Nero Mora was so excited that he paced back and forth in the tea room, and couldn''t sit on a stool and drink tea in peace. "General Fang, this news is really amazing, how did you do it. This is really amazing, does it mean that your factory already has the ability to design aircraft independently. " Seeing Major General Nairo Mora''s excited look, Fang Lang smiled, poured another cup of tea and put it in front of the opponent''s stool, and raised his hand to signal the opponent to drink tea. "Your Excellency, don''t get too excited, let''s sit down and drink and talk. Although, my factory has the ability to design aircraft independently. However, it has not yet formed its own aircraft manufacturing capacity, and related supporting parts manufacturing factories are still under construction. So, please don''t get too excited, General. " Major General Nero Mora managed to calm down his excitement, returned to his seat, picked up the tea on the table, and drank it in one gulp. Only then did he still have something to say: "Fang, I think we should drink to celebrate at this time. This is really exciting news. " Fang Lang, who had just drank while eating, didn''t want to continue drinking dryly with the other party. He was a person who wanted to keep healthy. smiled and said: "Now is not the time to celebrate. If our aircraft factory successfully manufactures the first aircraft, I will definitely invite Your Excellency the General to accompany me to get drunk." "Haha. You don''t need to invite me then, I will take our Air Force brothers to get you drunk." "No problem, I won''t go home if I''m not drunk." Seeing Major General Nairo Mora''s happy look, Fang Lang felt relieved. After all, developing an aircraft independently is not a small project. If no one wants the developed aircraft, it will really be a huge amount of research funding. The water is gone. Looking at the other party''s appearance, he must hope that Brazil can use self-developed aircraft instead of purchased aircraft. This is the same as Fang Lang''s philosophy. This made Fang Lang pay more attention to his friendship with Major General Nero Mora. Major General Neiro Mora obviously had the same thoughts in his heart as Fang Lang. He invested heavily in Fang Lang''s ability to plan for a rainy day and set up an aircraft manufacturing plant in Brazil. He expressed his admiration from the bottom of his heart, and also wanted to further stabilize the relationship between the two. Also, Fang Lang was puzzled when he started the refitting business when he was clearly capable of designing aircraft. "Fang, since you have such a good designer, why don''t you just start aircraft design and manufacturing. Instead, they undertake the modification business of some transport aircraft! Have you encountered any difficulties? If you need help, please talk to me directly. As long as I can do it, I will spare no effort to help you complete it. " Fang Lang can feel the sincerity of the other party from the other party''s words. Opened a box of cigars by the tea table, took out one and handed it to the other party, then took out another one for himself, and then said unhurriedly: "Your Excellency, you must understand that aircraft manufacturing is a systematic project. It does not mean that if we can design an excellent fighter, we will have the ability to manufacture it. This requires us to have a strong basic industry as a support. I dared to introduce an aircraft factory because of the introduction of the previous automobile industry system, which gave us some basic manufacturing capabilities. But thats not enough. Airplanes are not cars, and being able to make cars doesnt mean we can make airplanes. As the Air Force, you should also know that the aircraft we have in Brazil now are actually behind. The future of the Air Force is jet aircraft. If we are going to build airplanes, we will have to have jet manufacturing capabilities in the future. The manufacturing difficulty of jet aircraft is much higher than that of current propeller aircraft. " Major General Nairo Mora looked at Fang Lang dumbfounded, and said a little dumbfounded: "What? Fang, you want to build jets?" While trimming the cigar, Fang Lang looked at Major General Nero Mora with strange eyes and said: "Why, Your Excellency the General doesn''t agree that jet fighters are the future?" Major General Nairo Mora shook his head again and again. "Of course not, we have encountered jet aircraft in Europe, and its high-altitude and high-speed capabilities are not comparable to propeller aircraft. When the propeller plane encounters the jet, it can only choose to escape. Whether it can escape depends on luck. But are we capable of building jets? " Fang Lang smiled, put down the cigar cutter in his hand, picked up a match and lit the cigar in his hand, and after taking a sip, he said slowly: Certainly there is no capability to manufacture jet aircraft now, and Rome was not built in a day. We can take our time! Now, our first step is to train a group of qualified skilled workers by modifying the aircraft. After we have qualified skilled workers, we can start trying to manufacture small aircraft. If it works, we''ll need some orders from the military. For example, elementary trainer aircraft, then propeller fighter jets, and propeller transport aircraft. Finally start to challenge the jet fighter, jet transport plane. Slowly ride up step by step. Finally, achieve our goal of fully owning fighter jets with independent intellectual property rights. " After listening to Fang Lang''s words, Major General Nero Mora began to calm down from his excitement. Looking at Fang Lang seriously, he said: "Does General Fang mean that the support of our military is only needed after the aircraft factory has had successful aircraft manufacturing experience?" Fang Lang nodded after spitting out a big mouthful of smoke and said: "My development plan for the factory is like this. If your Excellency the General has a better idea, of course you can bring it up for our reference." Major General Nairo Mora lowered his head and thought for a while before raising his head again and saying: I think the first batch of trainer aircraft of our Aviation Academy can be entrusted to the aircraft factory to design and manufacture. Your aircraft factory is not only your family business, but also the hope of our Brazilian aviation industry. How can you completely rely on yourself to develop and grow slowly? I understand what you mean. Aircraft manufacturing is a systematic project, which cannot be achieved overnight. However, there are shortcuts we can take! As long as you can design qualified products, we can purchase parts from abroad. As long as the assembled aircraft can meet our own design requirements, it is the product of our own aviation industry in Brazil. As for the localization rate of parts, it can be gradually improved later! " Fang Lang was taken aback by what Major General Nero Mora said, yes! I am not in my hometown, so I dont need to pursue the Soviet-style big and comprehensive. Brazil has never been blocked and sanctioned by Europe and the United States, so I dont have to worry about parts getting stuck. Of course competitors methods are inevitable, but as long as you have the core technology in your hands, you can be more radical! It should not be difficult for the researchers of our own company to develop a trainer aircraft in this period. According to Major General Nero Mora''s idea, wouldn''t the Academy of Aviation place an order for the aircraft factory and start manufacturing directly? I have a lot of influence in the army now, and with the support of the Minister of the Air Force, everything seems to be a matter of course! Other officials in Brazil are corrupt and accept bribes. Is it because I am worried that someone will attack me from this aspect? But I am not in politics myself, so there is nothing to worry about. As for corruption in the army, his fleet can be said to be the cleanest in all of Brazil, okay? After thinking about this, Fang Lang looked at Major General Nero Mora seriously and said: "Your Excellency, are you sure you can convince the Ministry of Defense? This is no small matter. " Seeing Fang Lang''s expression, Major General Nero Mora understood that Fang Lang had been persuaded by him, and smiled at Fang Lang and said: "Haha Fang, don''t you think this matter is too complicated. Since we want to apply for the establishment of the Aviation Academy, we simply report the purchase cost of this aircraft as the purchase cost of the trainer aircraft. As long as the Ministry of Defense approves our school building plan and allocates funds to us, In the name of the school, we can directly place an order for the manufacture of trainers to your aircraft factory. In this way, there is no need to report to the Ministry of Defense for approval again! " Fang Lang looked at Major General Nero Mora dumbfounded, this guy is a genius! No wonder you can directly become the Minister of the Air Force. This idea is really clear, and the feasibility is very high! "So let''s try this?" Fang Lang said a little uncertainly. Major General Nero Mora made a final decision, patted the table directly and said: "Whatever to try, that''s it. Back to Rio de Janeiro, I went to discuss with General Crook and jointly apply for the establishment of an aviation school. But before that, I still really want to visit your aircraft factory. When are you free, how about being my guide? " It seems that the Major General Nero Mora in front of him is also a person who can do practical things! Speaking and doing things are not sloppy, full of courage. Fang Lang had nothing to say, and said directly: "If it''s convenient for your Excellency, how about I arrange a plane tomorrow morning, and we can fly directly to Sao Paulo?" "I''m fine, so it''s decided, I will rest at your house tonight." Major General Nairo Mora said very simply. Originally, Fang Lang''s plan was to go to Sao Paulo later. After all, the Ministry of Justice just called today and invited him to meet Sebastiano Hodges. If you go directly there tomorrow, your whereabouts may be predicted in advance, which will affect your travel safety. However, it is impossible for me to give up eating because of choking. Do I have to worry about going wherever I am worried that someone will attack me? Then what kind of soldier are you? Just be a turtle. "Okay, then I''ll let someone arrange the plane now, and leave early tomorrow morning." Fang Lang then informed his adjutant that Qi Qingshan had arranged his itinerary and guards. This night, Fang Lang and Major General Nero Mora didn''t know whether they drank too much tea and couldn''t sleep, or they found a common topic. They chatted until midnight before going back to their rooms to sleep. Brazil''s only two military chiefs who hold aviation power in their hands, in a one-night conversation, there is a feeling that a thousand cups of wine is too small for a confidant, and they have become very good friends. And conducted a series of discussions and plans on the future of the Brazilian Aviation Force, and initially reached a consensus to fully support the Fangyuan Group''s aircraft manufacturing factory. Major General Nairo Mora even asked Fang Lang to urge the aircraft manufacturing factory to start the development of helicopters. Liang Fanglang also had to admit that Major General Nero Mora was definitely a qualified Air Force Minister, better than himself, the traverser. After all, only by standing in the direction of the historical development of later generations can I know some things. The other party is indeed completely relying on his own personal vision. (end of this chapter) Chapter 289: surfaced Chapter 289 surfaced The next day, Sao Paulo. Major General Nairo Mora, accompanied by Fang Lang, visited the company''s laboratory and the huge wind tunnel laboratory under construction. And announced the trainer research and development plan on the spot. Based on the design capabilities of Fangyuan Group Aircraft Manufacturing Co., Ltd., designing a basic version of a trainer aircraft is a matter of hand. The designers at the scene cheered in unison excitedly, and finally had the opportunity to show their talents. Major General Nero Mora was very satisfied with this visit, especially after the general manager of the company, Bollman, introduced him the resume of the entire design team of the company. He spoke highly of the aircraft design team, and further strengthened his idea of ??fully supporting the Fangyuan Group''s aircraft manufacturing plant. After the trip was over, Fang Lang sent Major General Nero Mora to the plane, and under the protection of a group of guards, he drove to the office building of the Ministry of Justice in Sao Paulo. For safety reasons, Fang Lang did not notify the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice of his arrival. After being communicated by the guards, Fang Lang saw Orenz Rivien, the senior investigation director who called him to come over. "General Fang, welcome! terribly sorry! You need to take time out of your busy schedule to make a special trip. " Fang Lang looked him up and down, nodded with a smile and said: "It''s okay, I also hope to catch the real culprit as soon as possible. I''m short on time, please take me directly to see Mr. Sebastiano Hodges! " Olenz Rivien seemed very polite, Fang Lang nodded and said: "Okay, then we will go directly to take you there now." Then there was no nonsense, and he took Fang Lang directly into the detention room in the Ministry of Justice building. The detention room of the Ministry of Justice is obviously a small room that has been temporarily remodeled. The situation inside can be clearly seen from the window on the door. At this time, Sebastio Hodges is obviously much thinner than before. Although the short and fat figure still looks short and fat, the weight has dropped by at least twenty catties. Fang Lang could even see the looseness from his skin. The guard at the door opened the door after Orenz Rivien signaled, and signaled that Fang Lang could go directly into the room and talk to the other party. Fang Lang looked at Orenz Rivien, and didn''t go in. Instead, he looked at Sebastio Hodges in prison uniform through the window. Sebastio Hodges also saw Fang Lang outside the window, and stood up from the bed excitedly, about to say something to Fang Lang. Fang Lang hurriedly shook his head slightly, signaling the other party not to speak. Turning his head to look at Orlenz Livien said: "Mr. Hodges, and I are friends. Meeting under such circumstances makes him look very unseemly. Please arrange for someone to provide him with a chance to freshen up, change into a suit of clothes, and come see me again! " After finishing speaking, he glanced at Fang Qingshan who was following him and said: "Arrange someone to watch Sebastio Hodges wash up, and then bring him to see me." After nodding to Sebastio Hodges in the room, he turned and left. This made Orenz Rivien bewildered, not understanding what was going on. Qi Qingshan obviously wouldn''t give him too much time to think, and said directly: "Please arrange it immediately, our general''s time is very tight." Fang Lang, who left, walked out of the detention area, and walked to the office on the other side. After walking through a few offices, Fang Lang stopped suddenly, and casually pushed away a room on the right. There are six staff members of the Ministry of Justice in the room, chatting while arranging the materials in their hands. Seeing Fang Lang who suddenly pushed the door in, he was startled, thinking that a leader came to check! It turned out to be a completely unknown person, but he was wearing a neat navy uniform and the rank of major general. Still let a few people resist the urge to scold others. One of the middle-aged white men, about forty years old, was about to ask, Fang Lang had already said directly: "Everyone get out, I want to borrow this office." The middle-aged man hurriedly said: "This general, this is our office, and there are many confidential documents in it." Fang Lang behaved very arrogantly, and said directly: "I''m not interested in your confidential documents, so Manshang leaves this office now. I count to three, if I don''t leave immediately, I will let my people blast you out. " As soon as Fang Lang''s voice fell, several guards with guns broke into the office and pointed their guns at several people in the office. Several people were so frightened that they trembled all over. The middle-aged man wanted to argue a few more words, but the others had already left the office one by one. Seeing that everyone was moving, he could only reluctantly put down the documents in his hand and walk outside. After everyone left, the guards began to check the situation in the room. After everyone checked and found nothing abnormal, they nodded to Fang Lang to signal safety. Fang Lang smiled, looking at Sebastiano Hodges who was walking from the other side of the corridor. Regarding the domineering behavior of Fang Lang and his party, everyone dared not speak out, and hid aside and whispered. Of course, Fang Lang didn''t meet himself to make Sebastio Hodges look decent. The main reason was that Fang Lang didn''t want to talk to him in the detention room. If you are still talking in the detention room when you know there is a problem with the Ministry of Justice, you are likely to be monitored by the Ministry of Justice. If Sebastio Hodges really thought of something against the evidence against the Department of Justice, someone must destroy the evidence. That''s why Fang Lang randomly chose one in the office as a place to communicate with Sebastio Hodges. Fang Lang was also afraid that there would be accidents when he arranged for Sebastio Hodges to wash up, so he specially arranged for his own people to follow. About twenty minutes later, the door of the office was pushed open. Qi Qingshan walked in with Sebastio Hodges. Sebastiano Hodges, who saw Fang Lang again, looked a little excited, his eyes were a little red. Fang Lang took the initiative to step forward, and gave the other party a big hug before saying: "Long time no see, my brother. There should be no monitoring equipment here, let''s sit down and chat slowly. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Sebastio Hodges said a little excitedly: "Fang, my brother, have you found something?" Patting the opponent on the back, Fang Lang let go of Sebastio Hodges and motioned for the opponent to sit down. took out another cigar and handed it over. "You were locked in the detention room of the Ministry of Justice, and instead of explaining the situation to them, you wanted to see me, so I had some vague guesses." Sebastio Hodges took the cigar handed over by Fang Lang, looked around the office, and said after making sure that there should be no problem: "I asked to see you when I was first transferred here. I didn''t expect you to come so late. " Fang Lang narrowed his eyes when he heard this, without too much explanation, he just smiled and said: "I received a call yesterday." Sebastio Hodges narrowed his eyes and said nervously: "Then you came all the way, didn''t you encounter any danger!" Smiling and patted each other''s arm, said with a smile: "Are you worried that they will attack me again? Do not worry! It won''t be so easy for them next time. You called me over this time, do you have any clues to give me? " Sebastio Hodges nodded, leaned forward, and lowered his voice: "I remembered where I''d seen that bearded man. This is the office building of the Ministry of Justice. If I remember correctly, he should be one of the bodyguards next to a certain boss in the Ministry of Justice. Its been too long, if I didnt walk into this building again, I might not remember it. " Hearing what Sebastio Hodges said, Fang Lang knew that he had guessed correctly, and that his opponent was indeed a big boss from the Ministry of Justice. It''s just that Fang Lang didn''t understand what kind of enmity he had with this boss, and he would let the other party attack him desperately. "Which boss is it, do you remember?" Sebastio Hodges shook his head and said helplessly: "I really didn''t notice which boss''s bodyguard it was, and I was here to attend a meeting organized by the Ministry of Justice. All police chiefs from all over the country came to participate. I was too busy communicating with other people to pay much attention. It was just that when the bearded man was washing his hands in the bathroom, he splashed water on me, and I gave him a glare. He also apologized to me, and the matter passed. When the meeting was adjourned later, when I saw several bigwigs from the Ministry of Justice walk out of the building, the bearded man was among the security personnel. As for the specific boss, I didn''t pay attention at all at the time. " Seeing Sebastio Hodges''s decadent look, Fang Lang smiled and said: "It doesn''t matter, isn''t the scope of suspects narrowed down now? Do you remember who were the big names in the Department of Justice at that time, and participated in that meeting? " "Of course, a minister and two deputy ministers, as well as the chief of police and the chief justice." The characters reported by Sebastio Hodges are all the five biggest names in the Brazilian judicial system. It''s no wonder that all doubts can be concentrated on Sebastio Hodges, and the entire investigation is completely in trouble. This is meeting a professional! "Are you talking about the previous Vargas administration, or this administration?" Because Brazil''s political system is the same as that of the Western capitalist world, the heads of these departments are directly appointed by the president. Every time the government changes, the first person in charge will change once. But those deputies who are responsible for specific things are rarely replaced, because deputies are often responsible for specific tasks. Supervisors are often responsible for formulating guidelines and policies and communicating the president''s instructions. "It belonged to the previous government. It''s been too long, so I didn''t remember it for a while." With the clear guidance of Sebastio Hodges, the rest of the investigation is actually much simpler. As long as you take a photo of the bearded man and go to these big shots to find out whose bodyguard he is, you can basically know who the person who attacked you is. As for who it is after investigating who it is, how to deal with Fang Lang in the next part has to be thought about carefully. After all, according to Fang Lang''s estimation, even if he knows who it is, it will be difficult to obtain specific evidence. In this case, it may be very difficult to send the other party to prison. Moreover, Fang Lang didn''t intend to send the opponent to prison. Fang Lang''s attitude towards enemies who dared to attack him has always been to kill them quickly. Brazilian prisons are a joke at all. If such a big man goes to prison, it is probably not much different from going on vacation. "I understand, I will investigate the rest. But if this is the case, you will be in trouble yourself. " Of course Sebastio Hodges understood what Fang Lang meant. If he tells the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice the clues he knows, he may be silenced soon. (end of this chapter) Chapter 290: swirl Chapter 290 Vortex Sebastio Hodges lowered his head for a long while before saying: "I have already thought about it, only if I plead guilty can I have a chance to save my life." The current situation is indeed as he expected. If he tells the investigation team, they may find out who is behind the scenes. But it is more likely that he was silenced in advance. After all, even his request to see Fang Lang was delayed for such a long time. Not to mention a situation that is not good for the Ministry of Justice. Fang Lang also didn''t want to directly expose the black hand behind the scenes. First of all, it is hard to say whether complete evidence can be obtained after exposure. Without conclusive evidence, it is as difficult as heaven to send a big man from the Ministry of Justice to jail. Even if everyone knows that he did it, it will be difficult to give him the punishment he deserves. On the contrary, if anything happens to him, Fang Lang will become the target of suspicion. This is not conducive to Fang Lang''s implementation of his revenge plan. The opposite is not the case, as long as you secretly investigate who is attacking you, then you will have many ways to ruin the other party, and then arrange an ending for the other party. In this way, you can also retaliate against your opponent as covertly as possible. Knowing that Sebastio Hodges chose to plead guilty is also a helpless move, but fortunately there is no death penalty in Brazil. After Fang Lang finishes his revenge on the mastermind behind the scenes, there may be a chance to fish him out. Fang Lang got up and hugged the other party again before saying: "Dude, give me a week and let me find this guy first." Sebastiano Hodges nodded, and Fang Lang said: "Fang, thank you for always trusting me so much, it is my honor to know you. Do not worry! I won''t plead guilty right away. I just met you today and immediately pleaded guilty, which will arouse suspicion. I have to delay it for at least a month, and I want people to see that the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice is a joke. The entire Justice Department will be a joke too. " After speaking, he glanced at Fang Lang a little hesitantly, but finally didn''t make a sound. Fang Lang smiled and said: "Do not worry! Brother, I will arrange for someone to take care of your family, and I promise that you will not have any worries. After I get rid of the real mastermind behind the scenes, I will find a way to get you out of the sea of ??suffering. " Hearing Fang Lang''s promise, Sebastio Hodges had a rare smile on his face. In fact, Fang Lang still believes in him, and he is grateful from the bottom of his heart. He felt that if he was in another position, it would be absolutely impossible for him to treat himself like this. After all, for a while, even he himself began to wonder if he really planned all this by himself. Only Fang Lang believed that he was innocent from beginning to end. Now he still has to help him take care of his family, how can he not be moved. "Brother, be careful, these high-level big shots have dark hearts!" Fang Lang nodded, got up and gave Sebastio Hodges a big hug. "Be careful too, protect yourself." After finishing speaking, he turned around and opened the door and walked out. Qi Qingshan at the door saw that Fang Lang was about to come out, so he turned sideways to open the door. After Fang Lang came out, the Department of Justice agents who had been waiting outside the door quickly squeezed in to control Sebastio Hodges. Investigation Director Orenz Rivien stood beside Fang Lang respectfully and said: "General Fang, I don''t know if the suspect has revealed any useful information." Fang Lang squinted at the other party, smiled and said: "If he has any useful information, shouldn''t he tell you?" On the contrary, Sebastio Hodges heard Orenz Rivien''s words, as if he suddenly reacted, and shouted: "Fang, believe me, I was really wronged." The agents controlling Sebastio Hodges were taken aback when they heard his yell. Hastily stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, trying to drag him away. Fang Lang just heard Sebastio Hodges'' cry and hasn''t reacted yet. What''s going on? Wasn''t it fine just now? Why did you start shouting all of a sudden? Soon he noticed the inquiring eyes of Orenz Rivien beside him. With a heartbeat, I understood what Sebastio Hodges meant. I didn''t expect this old boy, who usually looks silly, to play such a clever trick. When Sebastio Hodges proposed to meet Fang Lang, Fang Lang had already begun to suspect that there was a problem with the Ministry of Justice. The investigation director in front of him thought of internal screening as soon as the murderous sheriff was silenced. It is unreasonable to speculate that there is a problem within the Ministry of Justice. There must be some guesses as to whether Sebastio Hodges thought of any clues. Keep Fang Lang and Sebastio Hodges, no one will believe him. After all, it was precisely because of his order to transfer the prisoners and materials that the sheriff who was captured alive was silenced. So, even if the two had any clues, they wouldn''t inform him. Sebastio Hodges'' sudden call for grievances was obviously intended to mislead the investigation director and make him think that Sebastio Hodges begged to see Fang Lang just to appeal to Fang Lang. Otherwise, there must be an explanation for what the two of them talked about in the office. In fact, Fang Lang is not worried that the other party will ask him what he talked about. If he doesn''t want to answer, no one can force him. But Sebastio Hodges may be dragged out for a harsh interrogation. Watching Sebastio Hodges, who was being dragged away, struggling and shouting for injustice. Fang Lang somewhat admired this guy''s acting skills. Olenz Rivien obviously didn''t believe that the content of the conversation between the two in the office would be that Hodges was expressing injustice to Fang Lang. Because everyone knows that Sebastio Hodges was wronged, it is impossible to call Fang Lang over to call out again. If it weren''t for Fang Lang being the victim, Orenz Rivien would now wonder if there was any conspiracy in the assassination. After all, the victim and the suspect still had secrets they didn''t want investigators to know. This is obviously not normal. "General Fang, if this guy provides any useful information, please tell it, otherwise our investigation will be in trouble." Orenz Rivien spoke more euphemistically, but Fang Lang could understand what the other party meant. Isn''t it that if there are clues that are not provided, the real culprit may not be caught? But Fang Lang now knows very well that even if he tells the other party the news, it is impossible to catch the real culprit. The most likely thing is to startle the snake, or let Fang Lang have no chance to retaliate. "The issue we are discussing has nothing to do with the case. As for what it is, you have no right to know, nor should you know. Let me reiterate that Sebastio Hodges and I are very good friends. I never doubted him from the beginning to the end, and until now I am still convinced that he is innocent. So I hope you guys will show restraint when dealing with my friends. From time to time, I will arrange for someone to come over to check on his situation. If I find that you have used any means against him that should not be used, I will let you bear the consequences. Remember what I said. " Facing Fang Lang''s tough statement, Orenz Rivien had an expression that I was too difficult. Not sure how to proceed with my investigation. Actually, at this time, he already vaguely understood something. If Fang Lang''s attack this time was not a conspiracy designed by Fang Lang himself. That''s the guy who launched the attack, that''s the big guy in their Department of Justice. Otherwise, no one can mobilize the insiders of the police station to complete this plan quietly. And, find a perfect scapegoat. The current him is the little cannon fodder caught in the middle of the game between the big shots. If he really found out the truth of the matter, he might also be silenced. And if he doesn''t find out the truth, his career may be over. Thinking of this, he wished he could slap himself a few times, pretending to be nothing but ostentatiously excluding all other members of the investigation team. I took the entire investigation task on myself, which is typical of digging a hole and burying myself. Now it is impossible to push the mission out. Because after he screened his investigation team of the Ministry of Justice, he found no problems. Immediately, the screening of other investigation teams began. This action directly caused other investigation teams to be withdrawn by relevant agencies, and they went to conduct internal screening themselves. After all, these agencies are not small players, so there is no reason for the Ministry of Justice to help them with the screening work. If there is a problem with their people, wouldn''t their unit be ashamed? The consequence of this is that the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice is the only one that is still investigating this case, and they can''t push it away even if they want to. Of course, in fact, they have no way to push it. After all, they are investigating under the order of the president. The expression he showed was too difficult, so it wasn''t just an act. It is an expression of his true emotions at this time. After Fang Lang expressed his attitude and warned the other party not to take measures against Sebastio Hodges, he turned and left the Ministry of Justice building without hesitation. Leave DOJ investigative director Orenz Rivien disheveled in the wind. This time the investigation director did not go out to see Fang Lang away, but stood by the upstairs window, watching Fang Lang board the car waiting downstairs, and left the Ministry of Justice building under the protection of a group of guards. Until the convoy completely disappeared from his sight, he didn''t look away. Instead, he stared out the window blankly, gradually losing focus. At this moment, a fierce ideological struggle was going on in his heart. Until a young detective came to him with a folder and whispered: "Leader, should we remove the monitoring equipment in the detention room?" As a result, it was found that the investigation director was obviously out of state, and he was not listening to what he was saying at all. Moved closer to Orlenz Livien''s side and said: "team leader, team leader" After a while, the investigation director finally responded. The detective vaguely heard the director say: "Damn it, I quit." However, it doesn''t sound real, and some are not sure. Olenz Rivien looked at the young detective beside him, and said in a calm manner: "What did you say?" The detective noticed the ugly face of the investigation director Orlenz Rivien, resisted the urge to take two steps back, and said in a low voice: "Leader, should we remove the bugs we installed in the detention room?" Olenz Livien stared at the stupid detective in front of him and said: "Others have already guarded against your move, so they will not fall into your trap at all. Won''t you take it down and wait inside to hear Sebastio Hodges'' sleepy talk? " The young detective didn''t dare to refute. He shrank his neck and said in a low voice: "It''s the team leader." Quickly left Orlenz Rivien''s side. Actually, the detective''s ears didn''t have auditory hallucinations, and Orenz Rivien made a decision during the time when he was in a daze. That is to leave this vortex of right and wrong as soon as possible, even if you dont want to catch your own future. Also jump out quickly, otherwise he might die if he continues. (end of this chapter) Chapter 291: Arrange manpower Chapter 291 Arranging manpower It was not easy for Fang Lang to leave the Ministry of Justice building. After all, knowing that his enemy is a senior ministerial official of the Ministry of Justice, it would certainly not be a pleasant thing. Now the first task must be to figure out who the opponent is. Again, for some reason, he wanted to attack himself. After all, there is no love for no reason in this world, and certainly there will be no hate for no reason. The convoy was driving on the streets of Sao Paulo, causing passers-by to stare. After all, the entire group is military vehicles, and there are as many as 20 or 30 people, so they are not easy to mess with. What Fang Lang in the car was thinking at the moment was whether someone would continue to attack him. After all, according to Sebastio Hodges, he had already applied to the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice to meet Fang Lang very early. But Fang Lang didn''t receive a call to see him until yesterday. Even if the work efficiency of the investigation team is low, it should not be so low. There is only one possibility, and that is that there is something wrong with the investigation team, and the time is deliberately delayed. Or, the request has to be approved by a higher-level leader in the report, and it ends up stuck in the hands of a leader for a long time. As for the time when I was stuck, it was hard to say whether any means were arranged. And Fang Lang led a large team, just waiting for the means arranged by the opponent. It is also a deterrent to opponents. The convoy swaggered through the market and swaggered into the headquarters office building of Fangyuan Group. The current security work of the Fangyuan Group headquarters office building has been taken over by the investigation department''s action team. And recruited more than 30 people from the local veterans to be responsible for standing guard and patrolling. This time, he was stopped when he entered the office building. After Fang Lang reported his identity and verified by phone, he put his motorcade in. Walking into his father''s office in military uniform, he was surprised. The general star on the collar badge is really eye-catching. "Lang''er, are you a general now?" Fang Xinshan said with surprise and excitement. Man! How many people don''t want to dance with guns and clubs, and how many people don''t want to be generals? Fang Lang didn''t do it to show off his new military rank, but to see his father happy. He straightened his waist unconsciously, smiled reservedly and said: "Well! There is no change in the position, but a military rank has been raised." "Oh! Smoke is rising from the grave of our old Fang''s ancestors. Thank you, ancestors, for your protection. Although he is not a general from his hometown, he is considered a glorious ancestor. We must celebrate. " I didnt come here today for this matter, and I dont have time for a big feast to celebrate. Before finding out the real enemy, Fang Lang felt quite restless. "Dad, it''s not time to celebrate yet, please call Zhong Ze from the investigation department for me first." Fang Xinshan saw his son''s serious face, and knew that this was something serious. put away his smile and asked: "Wait, I''ll make a call. Did something big happen? " As he spoke, he picked up the phone in the office and dialed out. After a while, the call was connected, and Fang Xinshan said: "Let Zhong Ze from the investigation department come to my office." Fang Lang saw his father hang up the phone, but he didn''t hide it, and said with a gloomy face: "Yes, the person who attacked us last time has already figured it out." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Fang Xinshan''s eyes became serious, and his face became solemn. Obviously, he also attaches great importance to this matter. However, he did not continue to ask questions. It would be better to wait for Zhong Ze to arrive and discuss how to deal with the matter together. Zhong Ze came very quickly. When he entered the office, he saw Fang Lang in military uniform, sitting on the sofa in the rest area, and the general on his shoulders was shining brightly. Standing upright like a conditional launch, he said loudly: "Hi boss!" Then Fang Xinshan said: "Hello Chairman!" Fang Xinshan didn''t feel any problem with the order in which Zhong Ze called the two people and how they called them. Fang Lang also smiled when he heard it, and didn''t say much. As an officer of the military command, if it is really handed over to Fang Xinshan for management, it may be difficult to completely subdue it. But it is no problem for me to subdue the opponent. After all, where is my strength? Everything they do in Brazil now depends on me. Fang Xinshan saw Zhong Ze coming in, and nodded to him. Fang Lang pointed to the sofa stool beside him and said: "You''re welcome, sit down!" Zhong Ze nodded to Fang Xinshan, then looked at Fang Lang, nodded with a serious face, and sat upright on the sofa next to Fang Lang. Seeing this scene, Fang Lang smiled and said nothing, but he was very satisfied with Zhong Ze''s attitude in his heart. "I called you here this time because the matter of my last assassination has a new direction. I decided to leave this matter to you to investigate." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Zhong Ze straightened his expression, and said directly: "Boss, the enemy is in the Ministry of Justice, right?" I have to say that the intuition of Zhong Ze, an old intelligence officer, is still very accurate. nodded and said: "Sebastiano Hodges remembered who the bearded guy was in command of the gang." Both Fang Xinshan and Zhong Ze looked at Fang Lang, waiting for Fang Lang''s answer. "According to his recollection, he saw this bearded man at a meeting organized by the Ministry of Justice. This man should be the bodyguard of a prominent figure in the Ministry of Justice in the previous government. But he is not sure who the big shot is, we need to investigate it ourselves. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Fang Xinshan frowned, and said worriedly: "Langer, where did you offend, the big man in the Ministry of Justice?" Fang Lang shook his head, and said helplessly: "I have never dealt with the Department of Justice, and I don''t understand why there are big figures in the Department of Justice who want to attack me. However, since he dared to attack me, he must be prepared to be retaliated by me. I want to ruin his reputation and ruin his family. " Zhong Ze asked directly: "Boss, did Sebastio Hodges give a specific scope?" At that time, the Minister of Justice, two Deputy Ministers, the Chief of Police and the Chief Justice attended the meeting. Your task is to find out who it is and why he wants to attack me. Then, see if you can plant nails around him. We will never show mercy to our enemies. Understand? " Fang Lang''s tone was very flat, as if he was talking about something irrelevant to him, But the murderous aura expressed made Zhong Ze feel it clearly. Zhong Ze got up directly, stood at attention and said: "Please rest assured, the boss, we will make him regret choosing to be your enemy." "If you have any difficulties, you can ask me." After thinking about it, Fang Lang still spoke. "Please rest assured, boss, there is no difficulty." Compared to investigating the case, it is much easier for Zhong Ze to investigate the intelligence of specific people. You don''t need any legal identity at all, and you can get things done by pretending to be a gangster. Seeing Zhong Ze''s confident look, Fang Lang showed a satisfied smile. In fact, Fang Lang''s only worry is their language barrier. As long as this problem is solved, the rest of Fang Lang thinks there should be no problem. Now their investigation department has found several translators, so Fang Lang no longer worries about this issue. Zhong Ze thought for a while and said: "Boss, does the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice know this news? If we meet them head-on, do we want to?" As he spoke, he made a throat-cutting motion. Fang Lang shook his head and said: "Don''t worry, Sebastio Hodges will not disclose this clue to the investigation team. If the investigation team can find out his identity by virtue of his bearded appearance, there is no need to wait until now. The people behind the scenes must have cleaned up their hands. However, if you really encounter other forces, you are allowed to be ruthless, but you must do it cleanly. Don''t arouse suspicion. " "Don''t worry, the boss, we don''t look much different from the Indians. Simple makeup will not arouse suspicion." Knowing these things, Zhong Ze and the others are professionals, so he nodded and didn''t say much. Zhong Ze also got up and left directly. After Zhong Ze left, Fang Xinshan was a little uneasy and said: Is it not good for us to investigate senior officials of the Ministry of Justice. How about we find out the reason, see if there is any misunderstanding, and let everyone sit together and let it go. " For Fang Xinshan, the senior officials of the Brazilian Ministry of Justice are simply unattainable figures. It is really unwise to fight against such figures. Fang Lang looked at his father''s worried expression, and his face became very serious. He stared at his father''s eyes and said word by word: "Dad! This is Brazil, where good people are bullied and good horses are ridden. If we know that someone is attacking us, but we dare not fight back, there will only be more and more people who dare to attack us in the future. Our family is going to have a hard time in Brazil. At that time, dont talk about safeguarding the interests of the Chinese, even our own business may be swallowed up by others. And we Chinese in Brazil will be reduced to the point where the Chinese in Southeast Asia are at the mercy of others. This is a war of dignity, we did not start it, but it must end with our victory. I want all Brazilians to know what kind of person I am Fang Lang. What kind of race are we Chinese? Whoever offends my strong man will be punished even if he is far away. It is by no means a slogan. " Fang Xinshan was infected by Fang Lang''s emotions, and became a little excited. However, the Chinese values ??over the years still made him cautiously say: "If we go to war with each other directly, will it cause dissatisfaction among other government personnel. At that time, will we be attacked by groups! " Give his father a reassuring look, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Don''t worry! I''m a rear admiral, the only aircraft carrier battle group commander in Brazil. Don''t say that the other party is just someone from the Ministry of Justice, even if he is the president, I will still kill him. Besides, if the other party really dared to confront me head-on, he would not use such shady methods. " I don''t know if Fang Lang''s strong self-confidence has infected Fang Xinshan, or Fang Xinshan has also figured it out. nodded and said: "Well, since you have made up your mind, I will fully support you. But I hope you are doing anything, or making any decisions. Dont forget, you are not alone, our family is a whole, we all prosper, we all lose. " Fang Lang understood Fang Xinshan''s meaning and his scruples. But he is also very clear in his heart that the values ??abroad are different from those in his hometown, and the law of the jungle is the universal value. If you want not to be coveted by others, you must show your strength and make people feel awe. can be respected. And this assassination is obviously an opportunity to show everyone his tough attitude. After the father and son reached a consensus. Fang Lang communicated his new ideas in Natal with his father. In order to allow his girlfriend to set up a hospital in Brazil with peace of mind, Fang Lang decided to use the opportunity of returning to Sao Paulo to find a Brazilian insurance company. Discuss the business that provides medical insurance for group employees. (end of this chapter) Chapter 292: Condolences from the Mayor of Sao Paulo Chapter 292 Condolences from the Mayor of St. Paul Fang Xinshan really couldn''t understand Fang Lang''s idea of ??providing medical insurance services to employees. But he is very much in favor of the idea of ??establishing a hospital. "If you''re worried about not having enough patients, I suggest you build the hospital in S?o Paulo. It is best to include our Chinese medicine clinic together. " Isnt this the establishment of a hospital integrating traditional Chinese and Western medicine? Hearing Fang Xinshan''s suggestion, Fang Lang was a little surprised. But in fact, there is nothing wrong with this. Establishing a hospital that integrates traditional Chinese and Western medicine is equivalent to directly placing Chinese medicine on the same level as Western medicine. Maybe many Brazilians dont understand or even accept it. But now the Chinese population in Sao Paulo is increasing rapidly. Who dares to say that Chinese medicine has no market in Brazil! After seriously thinking about the feasibility of this matter, Fang Lang slapped his thigh and said: "Okay, we will directly build our own hospital in Sao Paulo, and when the family members have any headaches, they can go directly to our own hospital for examination." "Should we continue to open the traditional Chinese medicine clinic that was originally planned?" Fang Lang had already discussed with his grandfather about opening a Chinese medicine clinic and a martial arts gym when he went home last time. So, Fang Xinshan asked this question. "Don''t worry about this. After the Chinese medicine practitioners from my hometown arrive in Brazil, we will ask them for their own opinions. Now my idea is to hire them to be doctors in our hospital first. If his medical skills are tested, we can let them choose if he wants to start his own private practice. We provide help and support. The most important thing is to let TCM flourish in Brazil. " "Okay, I will arrange the construction company to produce the design drawings, and the hospital will be built near our village, so it will be more convenient for everyone to see a doctor. When your girlfriend comes over, you can also live at home directly, and it is also convenient to go to work in the hospital. " Fang Lang never expected that his father would want Lilith to live at home directly. "Ah! Let me ask Lilith for her own opinion on this! I can''t make decisions for him. " "It''s okay, when she comes over, I''ll ask your mother to tell him." Fang Xinshan''s decisiveness was beyond Fang Lang''s expectation. Just when Fang Lang was about to continue talking, the phone in Fang Xinshan''s office rang. Fang Xinshan got up and walked to the desk, picked up the phone. "Hello! I''m Fang Xinshan." "Oh! It''s Mr. Mayor! Hello! I don''t know" "Yes, no problem. Welcome! Welcome!" After hanging up the phone, Fang Lang turned his head and said to Fang Lang: "Mayor Scalia, I heard that you have returned to Sao Paulo and want to see you. Now on the way. " After listening to his father''s words, Fang Lang frowned slightly. He didn''t tell anyone when he came this time! How did he know? But thinking about his ostentatious behavior in Sao Paulo, he smiled. Fang Lang and Fang Xinshan still have to give a certain amount of respect to Mr. Mayor''s visit. The two went to the door of the company to greet them. Not long after standing at the door, five cars parked steadily at the door of the group headquarters. Before Fang Lang and others walked out of the gate to greet him, Mayor Scalia was already one step ahead, got out of the car by himself, and came directly in front of Fang Lang. Apologetically, he stretched out his hand to Fang Lang. "General Fang, I am very sorry for your unfortunate experience in Sao Paulo! I''m late. " When Fang Lang saw this situation, he couldn''t understand the main purpose of the other party''s coming today. Mayor Scalia cannot be blamed for this kind of thing, but as the mayor, he must also be responsible for local security issues. So, as soon as we met, I lowered my attitude very low. Fang Lang smiled, and said indifferently: "Mr. Mayor is serious." Then he gave way again, allowing Mayor Scalia to shake hands with his father. Although Scalia knew that the greatest influence of the Fang family came from Fang Lang, who was a rear admiral himself. But Fang Xinshan, who is the chairman of Fangyuan Group, is Fang Lang''s father, and no matter who he is, he must give enough respect. So, when Fang Lang stepped aside, Mayor Scalia hurriedly walked up to Fang Xinshan and held Fang Xinshan''s hand. "Chairman Fang, as the mayor of Sao Paulo, I am very sorry that such a vicious incident happened under my governance!" Fang Xinshan looked at the Mr. Mayor in front of him, and couldn''t help but sigh in his heart, these politicians are so **** realistic. It''s been so long since I''ve been in Sao Paulo, I don''t see you coming over to express my condolences. As soon as your son came back today, you immediately ran over to check your presence. But these can only be thought in the heart, it is impossible to embarrass people by saying it. "Mr. Mayor has a lot of affairs, and it is impossible to ask about every detail. It is not the mayor''s wish for this kind of thing to happen. You don''t have to beat yourself up too much. " The three exchanged pleasantries at the door. Fang Lang turned his head and noticed that his cousin Yang Gan was also following Scalia with a briefcase under his arm. While Scalia was communicating with Fang Xinshan, Fang Lang went over and patted each other on the shoulder and said: "Brother Gan is here? Come on, let''s go in and have a cup of tea. " Scalia apparently also noticed Fang Lang''s intimate behavior with his secretary Yang Gan. The corners of his mouth turned up slightly. Yang Gan apparently often followed Mayor Scalia around, but today''s place can be regarded as returning to his home. So, looking very relaxed, he smiled and said to Fang Lang: "no problem." Looked at Fang Lang''s collar badge and smiled again: "I heard that you are now a general. Now that you see this collar badge, you really feel a lot more energetic." Fang Lang smiled and said: "Spirit is a person, what does it have to do with this collar badge." Several people talked and laughed all the way into Fang Xinshan''s office. "I don''t know, Mr. Mayor, what is the so-called rush to visit today?" Fang Lang is now a little accustomed to the straightforwardness of Westerners, and he doesn''t like to beat around the bush, so he spoke directly. Hearing Fang Lang''s question, Mayor Scalia was not surprised, and said directly: "Fang, I came here this time mainly to communicate with you about two things. First of all, I am really sorry about your attack this time. I didn''t expect something like this to happen in Sao Paulo. The key point is that a killer appeared in the police station. What happened this time made us ashamed throughout Sao Paulo and across the country. " Fang Lang took a sip of tea and said: "Mr. Mayor, we are friends, so I don''t have to hide some words. This incident made me very annoyed. I didn''t think that I didn''t fall on the European battlefield. Instead, he almost fell in front of his own house. Of course, I know that the responsibility for this matter is not with Mr. Mayor. However, I am very concerned about the security situation in S?o Paulo. As you know, our Fangyuan Group didnt even have a security guard. My father often drives to and from get off work alone. We believe in the security situation in Sao Paulo very much. But after this incident, we have to re-examine the security situation in Sao Paulo. In particular, many partners of our Fangyuan Group asked me whether it is necessary to delay the project we plan to start production in Sao Paulo. " When Mayor Scalia heard this, his eyes immediately panicked. Said nervously: "Fang, we are friends, please help us and make it clear to your partners. Our city government of Sao Paulo will never allow such a thing to happen again. I came to see you this time, and I also wanted to communicate with you about Sebastio Hodges. When he was detained at the police station, I personally asked whether this matter was related to him. He told me very clearly that someone definitely framed him in this matter. The real behind-the-scenes must be someone else. I know you are friends with him, and you have told him that you have complete confidence in his innocence. So, on this matter, our position is the same, I don''t care how powerful and how deep this damned mastermind is, if I find out who he is. I must kill him with my own hands. " Looking at the gritted expression of Mayor Scalia in front of him, Fang Lang couldn''t tell how true or false what he said was. However, he expressed the attitude he wanted to express very clearly. Fang Lang nodded in approval and said: "You are right, we are on the same page on this point. Sebastio Hodges is indeed innocent. While I''m friends with him, I have to say that his management of the police department is seriously missing. In this incident, he was promoted as a scapegoat, which is not surprising at all. " The embarrassment on Mayor Scalia''s face flashed past. "General Fang, what you are criticizing is." Fang Lang didn''t seem to notice his expression, and continued on his own: I also encountered the same situation when I was performing military control missions in Natal. It''s even more serious than here. The local police chief and the biggest local gang boss are actually brothers. It is conceivable how bad the local law and order situation is. For this reason, I directly mobilized the troops under my command to uproot this evil force and eradicate the entire family. All the local police were sent to the barracks to receive professional police training again. And the Natal Police Academy was established, stipulating that all police officers must come from the students of the police academy. Political review of every cadet in the police academy. Look at Natal now, the law and order situation has undergone a 180-degree change. A few days ago, when Mr. President went to Natal, he praised Natal''s security and development in front of our faces. " "What? Is there still such a situation?" Mayor Scalia obviously hadn''t heard of this situation, and looked very surprised. Especially when I heard Mr. President speak highly of Natal. Thinking about myself again, Sao Paulo lost all face in front of Mr. President and the entire Brazilian political circle because of this incident. I feel ashamed when I think about it. It''s a pity that the city of Sao Paulo is much bigger than Natal. sighed and said: "Alas! If only St. Paul could have a cleanse like this. It''s a pity that our St. Paul is too big to withstand such a huge shock. " Fang Lang curled his lips when he heard this, what''s the big deal, isn''t it because he doesn''t have enough courage? Drag and push, push and push, and finally turned Brazil into a gang-ridden country. The inaction of the government became more and more serious later. When the new crown broke out, the Brazilian government directly chose to lie flat. Instead, the local gangs assumed the functions of the government. Isolate the infected, and distribute masks and other anti-epidemic materials to ordinary people. Seeing that Fang Lang didn''t pick up his topic. Mayor Scalia blushed slightly, and hurriedly continued: "However, with regard to this method of police training and establishment of police academies, It is indeed worth learning from St. Paul. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 293: Policing Opportunities Chapter 293 Opportunity to intervene in police affairs Fang Lang looked at Mayor Scalia''s expression, and said with a serious face: As my hometown, Sao Paulo has a unique geographical location and climatic conditions. Economic strength is always ranked in the top two in Brazil. If the bad security environment leads to a large outflow of funds. Let the future of St. Paul slide into an unpredictable abyss. So as managers, we all have an inescapable responsibility. The police play a decisive role in the quality of the public security environment in the area. If Mr. Mayor really intends to change the law and order environment in Sao Paulo, it is very necessary to conduct a thorough reshuffle of the police system. Let the police in Sao Paulo take on the great mission of maintaining social order. " Mayor Scalia saw Fang Lang''s serious expression, and understood that Fang Lang was not joking with himself. Actually, he doesn''t want to change the social status quo in Sao Paulo, but the police department is not managed by him alone. He only has the power to appoint the chief of police, but the police is a relatively independent violent institution. There is also a national police headquarters on it, which is responsible for managing the police across the country. If Sao Paulo alone carries out a large-scale rectification of the city''s police system, it may encounter resistance from the police headquarters. Make his reform impossible to proceed. Thinking of this, he couldn''t help sighing: "Fang, you have to understand that some things can''t be done just because I want to do them. You were able to carry out reforms smoothly in Natal because the timing was just right. During the period of the military government, the police headquarters has also lost its management power over the subordinate police departments. So, you are able to carry out drastic reforms so smoothly. Now Sao Paulo has obviously lost such an opportunity. " Hearing Scalia''s words, Fang Lang''s heart moved. It seems that this reform in Natal actually touched the interests of some people in the police headquarters! The Ministry of Justice''s action on itself may have something to do with this matter! However, it stands to reason that a police station in a remote place like Natal should not let the police headquarters or the Ministry of Justice be so desperate! Suppressing the thoughts in his heart, Fang Lang looked at Mr. Mayor and said: "Since you can''t reform the police department, why are you talking about studying police training and opening a police academy?" "I can''t directly ask for police reform, but now because of your assassination in Sao Paulo. I can order the St. Paul Police Department to make rectifications! Since it is rectification, it is impossible for the police headquarters to refuse to organize all police officers to undergo systematic training. The establishment of a police academy is only to open a new channel for police officers to be sent to the police department. Every year, the police department recruits police officers from the society. The police academy we run can directly send high-quality police officers who have undergone professional training to the police station, eliminating their training costs. Why do they refuse? " Mayor Scalia smiled. Fang Lang was thoughtful. In fact, there is no formal police school in Brazil now, and the police school he set up in Natal is also groundbreaking. Most other countries do not have professional police schools. Most police majors are offered in military academies. Brazil doesn''t even have a military academy now, and the role of the military academy is too great for Fang Lang. Can the police school I opened in Natal be upgraded? Fang Lang, who had just cooperated with the Air Force to open the Aviation Academy, was very moved. If the police academy can be under his control, Fang Lang will stuff all the retired soldiers from his army into the police academy. Wait for the soldiers to graduate from the police academy and enter the police force. Think about how powerful this will become. Thinking of this, Fang Lang no longer hesitated, and said directly: "Mr. Mayor, I have opened the first regular police school in Natal, I want to go ahead and open a police academy in S?o Paulo, it won''t be necessary. Your St. Paul Police Department can directly entrust our Natal Police Academy to carry out police training! The same is true for recommending graduates from the Natal Police Academy to work at the St. Paul Police Department. " Mayor Scalia obviously didn''t understand why Fang Lang suddenly offered to help Sao Paulo train the police. For a while, I couldn''t figure out what good it would be for Fang Langneng. However, at this moment, he is obviously the party that Fang Lang feels guilty about. Even out of the consideration of compensating Fang Lang, he has no reason to refuse this request that cannot be regarded as a request. "Really? If so, it couldn''t be better. Please rest assured, I will arrange for the city government of Sao Paulo to allocate a special fund to support the construction of the police academy and police training. " Fang Lang didn''t expect that the other party would say that he would allocate expenses to support the construction of the police academy, which was a surprise. Nodding in satisfaction, the expression on his face gradually eased. Mayor Scalia saw Fang Lang''s expression, and his heart was slightly relieved. Although the two can be regarded as friends, the relationship between friends also needs to be maintained. This incident almost killed the other party. It doesnt mean that everyone can be exposed simply because they are friends. Besides, his friend''s behavior is obviously not up to standard. It was not until today that I came to Fangyuan Group to condolences to Mr. Fang Xinshan. Fang Lang remembered what the other party said just now, about opening a police academy in Natal and training the police, which may have touched the interests and rights of some people in the Police Headquarters or the Ministry of Justice. thought for a while and said: "If the city government of Sao Paulo pays the cost of police training to the Natal Police Academy, will there be any bad effects. Looks like our police academy in Natal needs to change its name. A police academy without the participation of the police headquarters and the Ministry of Justice is obviously inappropriate. Maybe it''s time for me to have a good chat with the bigwigs in the Justice Department. " Fang Lang''s eyes flashed with brilliance. Now that I was assassinated by a big shot in the Ministry of Justice, I can take revenge in private and clean up a big shot. But this incident does not mean that the Department of Justice can get away with it. Since I don''t plan to make this matter a big deal, can it just be used to make some deals with the Ministry of Justice? Scalia knew the elegant meaning when he heard the stringed sound, and immediately understood Fang Lang''s thoughts, nodded quickly and said: "It would be great if the police academy could obtain authorization from the Ministry of Justice or the police headquarters." Looking at Fang Lang, he seemed to be still thinking about how to persuade the Ministry of Justice or the police headquarters. Scalia thought about it before softly saying: "Fang, after Sebastio Hodges was involved in this incident, our Sao Paulo Police Department has been undergoing an internal investigation. Many jobs have stalled, and I don''t have a suitable candidate for the police chief for a while. I wonder if General Fang can recommend one for me? " Fang Lang, who was thinking with a teacup, heard what the mayor said, and looked up at the other party calmly. Understand that the other party is here today to give benefits. The police chief, Sebastio Hodges, must have failed this time. Even if the investigation results finally show that he was wronged, it is impossible for him to stay in the position of police chief. Besides, after chatting with Sebastio Hodges today, it has been confirmed that the enemy comes from the top of the Ministry of Justice. He has no chance to get away, so he can only take the initiative to take the charge on himself a month later to finish the matter. The chief of police must be reappointed. The appointment of the chief of police is the right of each elected mayor. Now Scalia took the initiative to ask Fang Lang to recommend a new police chief candidate, obviously to give benefits and eliminate the impact of his assassination in Sao Paulo. If Fang Lang refused such a good thing, he would be too stupid. Fang Lang smiled slightly, and said calmly: "No problem, we are good friends, I will definitely do this kind of small favor." Mayor Scalia smiled slightly and didn''t care about Fang Lang''s behavior of pretending to be helpful after taking advantage of it. Everyone is a fox, just understand what''s going on in your heart, and don''t care about some details. "Then I am really grateful to General Fang, I hope that the candidate you recommend can take office as soon as possible. And, quickly carry out the clean-up operation against the evil forces in Sao Paulo. Restore the good law and order environment in Sao Paulo as soon as possible, Escort the economic development of our S?o Paulo. " Perhaps in the view of Mayor Scalia, it is a challenge for the new director to take charge of cleaning up the evil forces. But Fang Lang was very happy to take the job. After all, using the power of the police to remove obstacles for the development of Hongyitang is really the best. What a challenge! This is simply the second big benefit! Fang Lang looked at Mayor Scalia seriously, wanting to confirm whether he did it on purpose or not, and whether he really didn''t understand the benefits or not. This incident is obviously not worth the huge price the other party has to pay. If it is said that the other party does not know what benefits this kind of crime crackdown can bring, Fang Lang absolutely does not believe it. It seems that the purpose of the other party''s coming this time is not simple! For a while, Fang Lang still couldn''t figure out what the other party''s purpose was. But Fang Lang is not a entangled person. Since he couldn''t think of it, he might as well ask directly. "Mr. Mayor has given me such a big benefit, I don''t know what I need to pay?" Scalia laughed loudly after hearing Fang Lang''s words. He knew that his purpose of coming here today was achieved. At least, the story about the attack on Fang Lang and his son in Sao Paulo has already been turned over. Fang Lang will not make a fuss about this matter again. "Hahaha General Fang is indeed a cheerful person, it is my honor to be friends with General Fang. Fangyuan Group is also a company with a sense of social responsibility. I heard that Fangyuan Group recently established a Fangyuan Group Federation of Trade Unions, and established branches in each of its subsidiaries. This trade union has developed rapidly in a short period of time, and almost all workers in the Fangyuan Group have joined this trade union organization. And this trade union is not under the leadership of the Labor Party, is there such a thing? " I have to say that Mayor Scalia is indeed a qualified politician. With vicious vision and quick response. Since the trade union is mentioned, it is obviously because of the strong influence of the trade union. "Hahaha Mr. Mayor is very well informed! There is such a thing, please rest assured, Mr. Mayor, our Fangyuan Group is a business group, not a political family. The purpose of our establishment of this trade union is to avoid being exploited by some single political groups. Don''t want our workers to be someone else''s tool. " Scalia had to admire Fang Lang, he had already blocked his way before he started asking. It seems to be saying that he does not want the labor union to be used by the Labor Party, but he is not reminding himself. The trade union organization of Fangyuan Group will also not be used by him and become his tool? If you want to borrow the power of the Fangyuan Group trade union organization, you must go through the Fangyuan Group''s organization. (end of this chapter) Chapter 294: public health Chapter 294 Public Health Scalia looked at Fang Lang who was smiling across the face, wishing to pooh his face. When he took advantage, he was not polite, and just as he wanted to make some demands, he began to block his words. smiled helplessly and said: "Fang, don''t get me wrong, I have no intention of intervening in the Fangyuan Group''s trade union. I am also very clear about Fangyuan Group''s position, and I agree with it. However, I think Fang, you also know very well that the Fangyuan Group trade union is a very large organization. In politics, he has unparalleled influence. Whether it is our National League, the Social Democratic Party, or the Labor Party that founded the trade union, they are all very concerned about this force. Especially your Fangyuan Group, which has nearly 100,000 workers in Sao Paulo alone. And you have attached great importance to improving the quality of workers. You have opened many evening schools and training courses in the factory. The number of illiterate workers is gradually decreasing. And our Brazilian electoral system determines that this will be a huge vote warehouse. I mean, do you understand? " Fang Lang thought to himself, do you need to remind me of this? If it wasn''t for the suffrage of these workers, am I crazy to spend so much energy on training courses and night schools? "Please rest assured, Mr. Mayor, we are friends. I can promise you right now, during election time. Group trade unions can organize workers to participate in your campaign. As for whether you can persuade the workers to vote for your candidate, it depends on your ability. " Fang Lang''s answer, although slightly different from Mayor Scalia''s thoughts, is not nothing. Having a chance to directly face voters to canvass votes is a worthwhile trip. As for whether Fang Lang will organize workers and participate in other parties'' campaigns, it is beyond his control. This is the freedom of the other party and the right of voters. Fangyuan Group also has no right to let voters only participate in their National League campaign. Although Mayor Scalia was a little disappointed, as a mature politician, he couldn''t show it. Instead, he said with a smile on his face: "That would be great. Fang, on behalf of our National League, I would like to express my gratitude to your Fangyuan Group. " Fang Lang smiled, and seemed to glance at it inadvertently. Cousin Yang Gan, who had been sitting behind the sofa, said: "Haha. You don''t have to be too polite, Mr. Mayor, Our Fang family and your National League are one family. " Mayor Scalia, who was a little disappointed, noticed Fang Lang''s eyes and was overjoyed. laughed loudly and said: "Yes, yes, we are family. Haha is a family! " It seems that this trick of finding a secretary is really very useful! Mayor Scalia thought secretly. "If you need help with anything, please don''t be shy, We are a family, and we should help each other. " Mayor Scalia continued to repeat. Fang Lang remembered the hospital plan he had just discussed with his father, and laughed loudly: "Mr. Mayor, since we are a family, I will not let you suffer. How about this! I know that our public medical resources in Sao Paulo are very scarce, In order to repay Mr. Mayors care for me and my father, our Fangyuan Group can invest huge sums of money in Sao Paulo to build a large general hospital. " Mayor Scalia was obviously caught off guard by Fang Lang''s unconstrained operations. Aren''t we discussing trade unions and votes? Why do you want to throw money at me all of a sudden? As the second largest city in Brazil, S?o Paulo certainly does not lack hospitals. The mayor is also very clear about the role of the hospital, which is a very important part of urban public health. Although the construction of a hospital now is far from being as huge as the investment in building a hospital in later generations. But this is indeed a real achievement. Especially if the strength of this hospital is strong enough, it can improve the happiness index of the citizens. Of course, there is no such thing as a happiness index yet. It doesnt matter if you dont know what the happiness index is, as long as you know that during your term of office, you have added a large hospital in Sao Paulo for the sake of the health of the citizens. is enough to blow it out by yourself. "Oh! That''s really great. On behalf of the city government, I would like to extend a warm welcome. Tomorrow, I will ask the department in charge of public health to come over to discuss the construction of the hospital with your company. Please rest assured that our municipal government will definitely give the greatest discounts in terms of hospital construction land. " In fact, when Fang Lang stated that Fang''s family and himself are a family, he was already satisfied. Now that Fangyuan Group invests in an additional large hospital, it is an unexpected joy of icing on the cake. Scalia is very satisfied with what he has gained by lowering his profile today and rushing to Fangyuan Group in a hurry. Fang Xinshan knew Fang Lang''s purpose of building the hospital, but he didn''t expect to be taken out by his son as support for the city government. This is really killing two birds with one stone! He couldn''t help giving his son a thumbs up in his heart. After talking about the hospital, Fang Lang asked casually: "I don''t know whether Mr. Mayor is familiar with insurance companies in Brazil. It is not convenient for Fang to introduce me to an insurance company with a relatively large scale and strength. I have a business I want to talk to him about. " Scalia glanced at Fang Lang in surprise, and said: Of course, Sao Paulo has Brazils largest insurance company Yumai, and their boss Javid Yumai and I are very good friends. If you need it, I can help you contact him right now. " Fang Lang nodded with a smile and said: "I''m short on time. I have to go to Rio de Janeiro tomorrow. See if you can help me make an appointment with the other party today." Mayor Scalia said very readily: "No problem, I''ll call him right now." After finishing speaking, he went directly to the desk, picked up the phone and dialed out. After a brief chat, he came back and said to Fang Lang: "Fang, I have already made an appointment with the other party, how about he set off now and come here for an interview?" Fang Lang shrugged indifferently and said: "Of course, that would be really nice." Scalia didn''t know what Fang Lang was thinking, and thought that the other party wanted to discuss cooperation with the insurance company after the establishment of the hospital. The other party came over quickly. After all, the business introduced by Mr. Mayor still needs to maintain a minimum of respect. Under the guidance of the staff, Javed Yumai, who entered the office of Fangyuan Group, was taken aback when he saw several people in the office. He is not familiar with the situation of the Yuanyuan Group, but only knows that the Fangyuan Group is a powerful industrial group that has been gaining momentum in Brazil recently. When I entered the company, I saw soldiers standing guard outside, but I didn''t know why for a while. But when he entered the office, he was stunned to find an officer wearing a major general uniform sitting in the meeting room. It''s not that I''m afraid, it''s just that I don''t understand why I was asked to come here to discuss business, and why there is a general here. Fortunately, the first time Mayor Scalia saw him, he stood up and said to everyone in the office: "Haha Javed my friend, come in." After speaking, everyone in the office said: "Let me introduce to you, this is Javed Yumai, the boss of Yumai Insurance Company." Everyone stood up and said hello. Scalia introduced everyone in the office to Mr. Yumai. After everyone is seated, the host and guest are divided. Javed Yumai is a rare mixed-race middle-aged man, which is a very rare type among the Brazilian elite who are mainly white. Before Fang Lang and the others could speak, Yumai spoke. "Mr. Fang, good afternoon! Thank you for your trust in Yumai Insurance. Don''t know how we can help you! " Yumai didn''t know much about Fangyuan Group, so he asked this question to Fang Xinshan. But Fang Xinshan actually didn''t know Fang Lang''s thoughts, nor did he really understand why Fang Lang did this. So, smiling and shaking his head, he said: "Actually, it''s my son who wants to ask you something. So, you better ask him! " Fang Lang looked at the embarrassed Javid Yumai, smiled and said directly: "Haha. Don''t mind Mr. Yumai, since you are Scalia''s friend, then you are my friend. I am looking for you today, mainly, I want to ask you, if the employees of our company pay 42 Cruzeiro per month, can they buy a medical insurance in your company? " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Javed Yumai was taken aback, and said in surprise: "Wait a minute, I''m going to calculate, pay 42 Cruzeiro per month, then one year is." As he spoke, he took out a notebook from his suit pocket and prepared to start calculations. Seeing this scene, Fang Lang reminded softly: "42 crus per month, 504 crus per year." Javed Yumai heard Fang Lang''s words, looked up at Fang Lang in surprise, as if he couldn''t believe it, how could he calculate so quickly. But he didn''t ask, but shook his head and said: "Mr. Fang, if there is only 504 Cruzeiro a year, we may not be able to cover it. Our company''s basic medical insurance project requires at least 1,000 Cruzeiros per year. " Fang Lang silently calculated in his heart, 1,000 Cruzeiros are about 54 dollars, which is not a small sum. Measured by the value of the US dollar during this period, this medical insurance is really not affordable for ordinary people. This is equivalent to using one-third of a workers annual salary to purchase the most basic medical insurance. Fang Lang knows without asking, that what this most basic medical insurance can cover may also be able to cure a headache. Of course, in this era when colds and fevers can kill people, being able to cure headaches and brain fever has already solved the medical needs of most people. The scope of this medical insurance will definitely not include the use of expensive drugs such as penicillin. But Fang Lang believes that he can provide such basic medical insurance to the employees of the factory, and can also make the workers grateful. "What if we buy 100,000 people at the same time?" Based on the current average salary level of factory workers, it is already the limit for everyone to spend 14 Cruzeiros from their own salary every month. It would definitely be unrealistic to ask the factory to spend more money to subsidize, because Fang Lang is not here for charity. Therefore, we can only use a huge amount of insurance coverage to calm down Javed Yumai and see if he can impress the other party. Javed Yumai''s brain shut down instantly after hearing this number. This number is more than all the current customers of their company combined. It would be a lie to say that I am not moved. But Javed Yumai''s rationality still suppressed the urge to agree. Pick up your notebook and continue to calculate. (end of this chapter) Chapter 295: Estimated reserves of 10 billion barrels Chapter 295 estimated reserves of 10 billion barrels Javed Yumai wrote and calculated in his notebook, and after more than ten minutes, he raised his head and looked at Fang Lang and said: "Mr. Fang, the minimum should not be less than 800 Cruzeiro per year, otherwise we will lose money." Fang Lang stared at Javed Yumai carefully for a while before saying: "Mr. Yumai, this kind of insurance policy business with a scale of 100,000 people should not be viewed from a purely risk management perspective. This is a very large amount of money, and you should calculate how much investment your company can use this money to invest after receiving the premium. The profit from investment will be countless times that of your simple premium. " The surprise on Javed Yumai''s face flashed, and he quickly returned to normal, smiling and saying: "Mr. Fang, it seems that he is very clear about the profit model of our insurance company. Actually, the 800 Cruzeiro I gave was the final quotation I gave after careful calculation and our investment profit. You need to understand that there are no low-risk projects suitable for insurance capital investment. If we choose high-risk projects, the ROI may indeed break even. But we can''t afford the risk. " "Directly increase 100,000 customers at one time, but no amount of money may be able to obtain development opportunities! Mr. Yumai don''t think about it seriously? " In order to allow the workers to enjoy basic medical services at a relatively low price, Fang Lang also let go of his face. Haggling with Javid Yumai. As the boss of Youmai Insurance Company, he obviously doesn''t agree with Fang Lang''s point of view. No matter what Fang Lang said, he just insisted on not letting go, and the minimum annual premium should not be less than 800 Cruzeiro. If calculated on the basis of 800 Cruzeiros per year, the workers themselves need to pay about 22 Cruzeiros per month, accounting for about 8% of the workers'' monthly income. Now even 5%, Fang Lang is not very sure that he can convince everyone. Not to mention eight percent. In the end, Fang Lang could only sigh, and shook his head helplessly. "I''m really sorry, Mr. Yumai, I think we need to think about it." Javed Yumai is obviously very excited about this business, So, I also said helplessly: "Mr. Fang, we at Yumai Insurance are very interested in this business. However, the price you gave is too low. If your discussions finally come to fruition, you can call me. " After speaking, he got up directly, nodded to everyone in the office, then turned and left. In fact, this time is not a negotiation, both parties have only expressed their ideas initially. The reason why Javed Yumai chose to leave directly was to give Fang Lang and others time to discuss themselves. I also want to return to the company as soon as possible, and arrange for the company''s financial personnel to re-evaluate whether this project has cooperation value. Seeing that Javed Yumai was about to leave, Mayor Scalia also chose to stand up and bid farewell to everyone. After leaving the Fangyuan Group, Mayor Scalia let Javid Yumai board his car and left together. Fang Lang stood by the window of the office, watching this scene, a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. "Everyone is gone, what else are you looking at?" Fang Xinshan looked at his tall and straight son standing by the window, and asked suspiciously. Fang Lang turned around, smiled and said: "It''s nothing, let''s see if Mayor Scalia can convince this Mr. Javed Yumai." "How do you know that Mr. Mayor Scalia will help you persuade the other party?" Fang Xinshan asked slightly puzzled. Fang Lang smiled and said: "Guess!" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Fang Xinshan rolled his eyes and ignored his son. At this time, Mayor Scalia, as Fang Lang expected, was chatting with Javed Yumai about the insurance business just discussed. "Javed, I think you should take this business even if it loses money." When the mayor invited him to ride in the car with him, Javid Yumai knew that the other party would definitely discuss this matter with him. But unexpectedly, the first sentence turned out to suggest that he should win the business even if he loses money. "Oh why?" Mayor Scalia can vaguely guess some of Fang Lang''s thoughts. The purpose of doing this should be to have some connection with the trade union. "Actually, once this insurance business is launched, there will certainly not be only 100,000 customers." Hearing Mr. Mayor''s words, Javed Yumai was shocked. "How is it possible, Fangyuan Group doesn''t even have 100,000 workers! Mr. Mayor actually thinks there are more than 100,000 orders." "Who said that the Fangyuan Group does not have 100,000 workers, but do you know how many workers there are in the three car brand factories and the corresponding supporting factories? If Fangyuan Group buys a basic medical insurance for all workers, what do you think will happen if other factories dont buy it for their workers? So, you should take a long-term view. This is a really big business. " As a businessman, Javid Yumai reacted immediately. There was an imperceptible gleam in his eyes for a moment, but it quickly faded away. After a long while, he said: "But the quotation he gave is too low, it is impossible for any insurance company to accept it. unless" As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Mayor Scalia. Seeing that Mr. Mayor felt a little nervous, he asked anxiously: "Unless what?" Javed Yumai took a deep breath, gritted his teeth and said: Unless the government subsidizes it. Mayor Scalia stared at Javed Yumai, this **** capitalist, he was too greedy. It is not enough to collect money from workers, and they want the government to provide subsidies. This is not something that he, the mayor of Sao Paulo, can decide, at least it needs to be discussed in Congress. But as a politician, he quickly saw the huge political impact this matter could bring. My heart couldn''t help but start to get hot. Jawed Yumai saw Mayor Scalia lost in thought, and he didn''t disturb him, but quietly began to think about his own problems. For a while, the car fell into an eerie silence. At the same time, far in the northernmost land of Alaska in the United States. A group of muddy workers are working nervously around a huge drilling equipment. "Captain, why do you think the company asked us to continue digging in the original well? Is it possible that you want to penetrate the earth? " A young man in denim overalls, a plaid shirt on his upper body, and a peaked cap, looked at the middle-aged man who was carefully analyzing the newly drilled soil. "Someone gives you money to drill through the earth, why don''t you do it?" The middle-aged man said without raising his head. "Haha. Why not! As long as the money is in place, it is not impossible for me to go to space and drill through the moon." The young man laughed loudly when he heard it. The middle-aged man who was checking the soil on the ground did not continue to answer the call, Instead, he reached out and took out a slightly black stone flake from the soil and looked it over carefully. Put it under your nose and sniff lightly. Immediately afterwards, it bounced off the ground like an electric shock. shouted in his mouth: "Boss, boss, come and see, what is this?" In a tent not far away, some people were sleeping, and some were writing and drawing with pens and paper. Hearing the cry, a middle-aged man with long hair and a somewhat scruffy look stood up from the stool unhurriedly and said: "What are you screaming for? An abandoned well, can it really drill oil! This new boss is also an idiot. He doesn''t understand anything, but he knows how to direct blindly. It must have been a lot of money. " While talking, he walked towards the drilling equipment. The man holding the stone flake glanced at the boss who was swaying over, he couldn''t wait any longer. Running directly to the sloppy man, he handed over the gravel in his hand and said: "Boss, look at this stone, I smell oil." The sloppy middle-aged man, who was a little disapproving, instantly became energetic when he heard this. "what!" He snatched the flake from the man''s hand and looked at it, his eyes got bigger and bigger. Looking at the man in front of him in disbelief, he said: "This was just dug out of here?" "That''s right, boss. Just dug out." The sloppy man put the flake of stone under his nose and smelled it, his face began to flush a little. rushed directly to the mud pile next to the drilling rig and rummaged through it. Soon, several similar stones were found. The actions of the two people attracted the eyes of the people around them, and everyone moved closer to this side. The sloppy man looked at the crowd in disbelief and said: "There''s oil, there''s oil down here. Hahaha" When everyone heard this, they all looked in disbelief. After all, this well was the one they abandoned, and everyone felt that it was impossible to find oil here. But who knows that during the winter break, the boss of the company will be replaced. The new boss didn''t know who he had listened to, and asked everyone to drill in the original hole and continue to drill down. Originally, everyone took it as a joke, but a new situation appeared today. But for everyone, being able to dig oil is also of great benefit to them. After all, they also get a commission after the oil is released. So, after hearing that there was really oil under here, everyone became excited like a chicken blood. One after another gathered around the drilling platform to check the drilled oil-bearing shale. As time went by, more and more gravel was drilled out of the well, and everyone became more and more confident. After another whole day and night of drilling, everyone who had just finished lunch heard a huge vibration coming from the drilling platform. Everyone who was resting ran to the drilling platform one after another, watching closely as the drilling platform went down a little bit. As the probe continued to go deeper, the vibration became louder and louder, as if a demon from the abyss was about to break out of the ground. But the crowd around the drilling platform, not only did not have the slightest fear, but leaked an uncontrollable excitement. It''s like a devil believer who is preparing to meet Satan. The vibration sounded for about half an hour, and there was a howling sound like a strong wind blowing through the entrance of the cave. Everyone knows that this is the roar of natural gas being awakened. An unpleasant smell began to emit in the air, and then a burst of natural gas rushed out of the casing, spraying black oil more than ten meters high, followed by it. The nearby workers were poured all over their heads and faces, but the workers had no one to hide, and they all stood below and cheered loudly. Let the black gold be painted all over the body. This is a memorable moment. Years of hard work finally paid off at this moment. Of course, this has nothing to do with the Richfield family. Soon, the news that Universal Petroleum Exploration Company discovered a large oil field in Prudhoe Bay, Alaska spread like wildfire. As the second largest shareholder, Morgan received the news immediately. And quickly found the famous McNaughton Consulting Company to conduct resource assessment for the Prudhoe Bay project. When the evaluation results were presented to Morgan, Morgan couldn''t believe his eyes. I saw "estimated reserves of 10 billion barrels" written in bold red pen on it. (end of this chapter) Chapter 296: Discussion of Military Academy Chapter 296 Discussion of Military Academy "Didn''t you just start an Air Force Academy with the Air Force? Why do we need to build another military academy? Our military expenditures cant afford you to make such a fuss. " Navy Minister General Crook looked helplessly at Fang Lang in front of him. "General, I am considering that the advisory group we hired from the United States, It would be a waste to simply train our aircraft carrier fleet. Anyway, a sheep is also chased, and a flock of sheep is also chased. It just so happens that our navy has just received several US Fletcher-class destroyers, Officers at all levels have only received some basic training. Why don''t we take advantage of this opportunity and have all our sailors receive systematic learning? " Fang Lang sat in General Crook''s office, and said to General Crook earnestly. "Well! This is okay! I''ll have someone compile a list and give it to you, and send them over to receive training from American instructors. As for the establishment of a military academy, is it unnecessary? Just finished purchasing aircraft carriers and destroyers, our navy''s military expenditures have been seriously exceeded this year. The application may also be rejected. " General Crook obviously understands the importance of establishing a military academy, but the Department of the Navy, which has just completed a major upgrade of the navy, has consumed too much military expenditure this year. Even if you want to build a military academy, you have to wait until the next fiscal year. "The navy is a high-tech arm, and simple training alone cannot form combat effectiveness. We send our officers to foreign military academies to study every year. It is better to directly set up our own military academies in China. In the early stage, excellent military instructors were hired from abroad to teach in Brazil, and gradually cultivated their own instructor team. And carry out strategic and tactical research suitable for our own Brazil. In order to form our own military strategic thinking in Brazil. Targetedly build our navy into a modern navy with combat effectiveness. " In fact, Fang Lang encouraged General Crook to build a modern naval academy just to seize the opportunity and become the first proponent of this point of view. Only in this way, will there be a chance to get a foot in the construction of a military academy in Brazil. In the beginning, his idea was indeed to build a military academy under his own control, and then put the police academy in it. But he quickly figured it out that his identity could not completely control a military academy. This kind of school must be directly under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of National Defense or the Ministry of the Navy. If you are too ambitious, you may steal the chicken and lose money, and include the police academy that has the opportunity to be completely controlled by yourself. Its better to take a step back and broaden the sky, stop coveting unrealistically hard-to-get rights, turn yourself into the schools advocate, and get the best political resources. Because, if this proposal was proposed by him, then he must have the opportunity to join in the formation of this military academy, and by the way exert his own influence on some things of this military academy. "I know what you said, I have already said it. It''s not that I don''t want to have a dedicated naval officer school. Rather, we really have no funds. " General Crook recognized Fang Lang''s ideas very much, and admired his forward-looking vision of being able to propose the construction of a military academy. But the other party''s constant pestering also made him feel very headache. Hearing that General Crook always emphasized the issue of insufficient funds, Fang Lang turned his head and said directly: "Your Excellency, our navy has no military expenses. But other military branches have military expenses! For example, the military expenses needed for the construction of the Aviation Academy we established this time are all provided by them! We want to build a military academy, but we dont necessarily have to build a professional naval academy! Of course, it would be best if a more professional naval academy could be built. But dont you have no money now? No money and our army brothers! Let''s just pull up the Secretary of the Army and go directly to Marshal Morais to chat. See if we can simply start a Brazilian Defense Forces officer academy. Putting the navy and army directly in one school, wouldn''t we not have to pay for it? " General Crook''s eyes lit up at Fang Lang''s words, and he reacted. Yup! We can build an Air Force Academy with Air Force dollars. Why can''t the Army''s military expenses be used to build the Naval Academy! Good guy, this Fang Lang''s brain is really not so flexible, he can think of this kind of show operation. The key is that this solution already has a successful experience, and it can be copied and pasted directly! "Wait, why don''t we just add the Aviation Academy we formed with the Air Force? Wouldnt our confidence be greater in this way? " General Crook seems to have thought of a better way. But what greeted him was Fang Lang looking at him like a fool. An angry Crook stared at him with a white eye and said: "What are you doing looking at me like this, if what I said is wrong, you can just say it. Next time you use this again, look at me like an idiot, and I will punish you to swim a kilometer. " Hearing General Crook''s words, Fang Lang quickly smiled flatteringly and said: "Hey, General, you misunderstood me, this is clearly a look of admiration. You see how clear my eyes are, how bright my eyes are, and how sincere my expression is. " This shameless appearance made General Crook laugh directly. In the entire Brazilian Navy, only Fang Lang can joke with General Crook so unscrupulously. After all, General Crook has always been known for his strictness in the Navy. But after Fang Lang got in touch with him, he found that General Crook took great care of him. Especially last time, when the chief officer of the Marine Corps was forced by someone, the two had a chat, It can be regarded as completely eliminating the barriers and being able to discuss some issues with an open heart. Actually, this is also related to Fang Lang''s own strength. After all, Fang Lang''s aircraft carrier battle group has already occupied more than half of the Brazilian Navy in terms of scale and combat effectiveness. Plus Fang Lang has unparalleled control over this aircraft carrier fleet. It can be said that it has reached the point where the needle cannot be inserted, and the water cannot be splashed. Even the Marine Corps officers and staff who had just been forced into it by the Ministry of War were wiped out by him. With such a powerful subordinate, General Crook must of course pay attention to it and guard against it. But fortunately, Fang Lang has always respected General Crook very much. If there is any good thing, I can still think about him all the time, and the huge age gap between the two makes General Crook have a sense of intimacy like an uncle and nephew. Of course, it must be explained here that there is an intimate relationship between the two. It has nothing to do with Fangyuan Group''s care of General Crook''s family. Especially letting his family members join the fishing company formed with Colonel Parisi as shareholders, it has nothing to do with it. "Okay, you boy, talk when you have something to say, and fart when you have something to say. Don''t play tricks here. " General Crook scolded Fang Lang with a smile. Fang Lang also smiled and said: "Hey, Your Excellency, we and the Air Force jointly established the Aviation Academy, This is between us and the Air Force. How can that be confused with establishing an officer school with the Army? One is a school dedicated to training pilots, and the other is a school dedicated to training naval and army officers. The direction of cultivating talents is different, of course they have to be established separately. " What Fang Lang said sounds reasonable, but in fact it''s just fooling people. Fortunately, as the Minister of the Navy, General Crook is not a fool. From Fang Lang''s short words, he tasted the taste. couldn''t help but smiled and cursed at Fang Lang: "You kid is a slippery head, you just said that we have some control over both schools. But they can only have influence on one school, isn''t it enough? " Fang Lang smiled and said: "In this way, although there are two schools, we can exert our own influence. But it also disperses our energies and is not conducive to the unity of our naval officers. So, I would like to apply with you to give me the management rights of the Air Force Academy established in cooperation with the Air Force. The Ministry of the Navy, on the other hand, focused its energy on the officer school established with the Army. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, General Crook had to express his admiration. Because he discovered that Fang Lang was always playing chess quietly. Often when you think you have seen through his thoughts, he will hide a more hidden thought behind this thought. General Crook had no objection to Fang Lang''s idea of ??controlling the naval aviation. After all, there is only one aircraft carrier in Brazil, Fang Lang, and the naval aviation can only be under his jurisdiction. Smiling, reached out and tapped Fang Lang, and said with a smile: "You kid, what a little fox. Fine! That''s it. I will visit Mr. Secretary of the Army tomorrow, so you are satisfied now! " Fang Lang originally stated his intentions directly, of course he minds, General Crook''s teasing of him. smiled and said: "Hey, why am I satisfied? Isn''t this something that everyone is satisfied with? Didn''t you also solve the problem of not having money to build a naval school? " General Crook gave Fang Lang a thumbs up, smiled and said: "You are right, we are all satisfied." To be honest, he likes this subordinate from the bottom of his heart, and wants to train him to be his successor. So, a lot of things respect his opinion very much. But liking him doesn''t mean not hitting him. So immediately put on a serious tone: "I can tell you, I handed over the aircraft carrier to you, so don''t screw me up when the time comes. Knowing that you lack pilots now, you cannot make the aircraft carrier form combat effectiveness. I will give you enough time to train your own aircraft carrier pilots. However, other positions on the aircraft carrier cannot lie down and sleep. From time to time, let your aircraft carrier go to the coast to cruise for me. Show your face internationally and give you a sense of presence. Let the crew of the aircraft carrier quickly familiarize themselves with their new equipment. Also be more familiar with the hydrogeographical conditions of our Brazilian waters. Understand? " Fang Lang understood that this was a reminder to himself that he couldn''t just focus on the aviation soldiers and forget about his own job. Quickly got up, stood at attention and saluted: "Yes, sir." General Crook was very satisfied with Fang Lang''s attitude, and he would never smile hippie when it was time to be serious. When fighting a war, there is no ambiguity. Nodded to Fang Lang, pressed his hands and said: "Well! There is one more thing you don''t forget. Now we have the latest American aircraft carriers, cruisers, destroyers, and submarines in our hands. We can''t let them stay in the military port or patrol every day. We have to send various warships to the shipyard in turn for overhaul and maintenance in batches. do you understand me? " How could Fang Lang not understand what General Crook meant. Isn''t this just to ask your own shipyard to pull the tape measure, study these warships, and gain some construction and design experience from them. Laying the groundwork for building your own warship? Without General Crook''s explanation, one of Fang Lang''s purposes for building a shipyard in Brazil was to build warships. So, without hesitation, he said: "Yes, Your Excellency General. I am preparing to apply to you to send our U21 submarine to Sao Paulo for maintenance. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 297: New machines and leads Chapter 297 New Machine Tools and Clues Just as Fang Lang and General Crook were at the Ministry of the Navy, they were discussing how to use chickens to lay eggs to build a military academy. Located in the southernmost state of Rio Grande do Sul in Brazil, there is a brand new factory building in the northern suburbs of the capital Porto Alegre. No signs can be seen outside the gate of the factory building. In the factory area at the moment, a group of people are staring at a brand new machine tool that is as tall as one person. With the operation of the machine tool, an umbrella-shaped gear is gradually forming. "Mr. Wilbur Serrano, This is really amazing! This spiral bevel gear milling machine manufactured according to your brand new plan, It can automatically complete the functions of tool feeding, tool retracting and gear changing. It can also stop automatically after processing. This is more advanced than the machine tools we manufactured in Germany! " A middle-aged man with the appearance of an engineer is talking to the young man who is watching the machine tool running. Needless to say, this young man is the genius machine tool designer Wilbur Serrano Fang Lang rescued from Germany. Wilbur Serrano at this time, Whether it is energy or physical condition, they are completely different from when they were just rescued. Hearing the praise of the engineers around him, Wilbur Serrano did not show pride. Instead, he stared intently at the operation of the machine tool, and said casually: "Don''t be too happy, Whether the machine tool is good or not depends on the precision of the machined parts. " The engineer beside him smiled and said: "The precision of the machining depends on the precision of the parts of our machine tools. We have tested the accuracy of the parts of this experimental machine tool one by one. Fully reached the highest level of our German machine tool industry. What really amazes me is that you designed this machine tool to work automatically. No more manual control by workers, which is incredible. I think it must be a cross-age product. " The surrounding engineers also sent their blessings. We cant blame you for this, its really this brand new product that really subverts everyones perception of traditional machine tools. Although he cannot yet call it a fully automatic machine tool, But it is also a pioneer in the semi-automatic field. Wilbur Serrano ignored the admiration of the engineers around him. Instead, continue to watch the parts processed on the machine tool gradually take shape. Wait until the machine finally stops automatically. He couldn''t wait to hold the umbrella-shaped gear part with his gloved hands. Put it on the platform on the other side, and use the inspection tool to start inspecting this part. About ten minutes later. Wilbur Serrano finally let out a long sigh of relief, suppressing the excitement in his heart and saying: "The machining accuracy of the design has been achieved." Everyone around cheered loudly. "It worked, we made it. oh oh." The manager of the machine tool factory is a Brazilian white man named Antonin Oliveira appointed by Fangyuan Group. After all, these people dug from Germany are all machine tool designers and researchers. Not proficient in administrative management. Wilbur Serrano was appointed as the director of the Fangyuan Group Machine Tool Research Institute. Mainly responsible for the research and design of machine tools. Antonin Oliveira, who had successfully researched the machine tool factory''s first practical machine tool, was overjoyed. Immediately reported the good news to the group company. The news reached Fang Lang''s ears, and Fang Lang was so pleasantly surprised that he wanted to fly directly to the scene to visit. But Fang Lang, who was beaten by the Minister of the Navy just now, At this time, the aircraft carrier is conducting training in the Natal waters and cannot leave. Can only send a congratulatory message to the machine tool factory and Wilbur Serrano. Of course, this news was also spread in Brazil through the Brazil Times for the first time. Suddenly, the news that the first machine tool made in Brazil was successfully developed in the Fangyuan Group machine tool factory was shocked. Not only did various industrial companies in Brazil pay attention. It even surprised companies in Europe and the United States. The Brazilian government is even more excited, and the status of Fangyuan Group in Brazil has been further improved. At the same time, in an ordinary house in Rio de Janeiro, Zhong Ze was listening to the report of his subordinates. "Sir, we have bribed a guard in the Judiciary''s guard room, After his identification, the identity of this mysterious bearded man has been confirmed. " Listening to what the intelligence officer called Zhong Ze, one knew that this was also an old investigator from the military command. "Oh! Finally let us catch his tail, let''s talk about it. Who is this mysterious bearded man? " Zhong Ze said with an expected expression on his face. The intelligence agent under him handed a file to Zhong Ze and said: "His name is Jesse Colantono, a Portuguese-Brazilian, thirty-eight years old this year. is the former Deputy Minister of Justice of Brazil, one of the four bodyguards of Craig Eddie. " Although everyone has left the military command, some habits of the military command have not changed. They will create a complete file for each investigated or suspected object. Zhong Ze took the files and flipped through them, murderous intent appeared in his eyes. "So, the man behind the scenes is this Mr. Craig Eddy? No wonder so much energy. " Unexpectedly, the intelligence officer said with some hesitation: "Strangely enough, The Deputy Minister of Craig Eddy had long been killed in the Japanese mob''s siege of the presidential palace. " "what? Why is the deputy minister dead, but his bodyguard can live well? " Zhong Ze never expected such an unexpected situation to happen. Since he is a personal bodyguard, he should be by the boss''s side at all times. How could there be a situation where the boss is dead and the bodyguard is safe and sound? "According to what we have learned, Jesse Colantono and another bodyguard were taking a break at the time, Responsible for protecting Craig Eddie are two other bodyguards. " If Mr. Undersecretary had gone to God long before the attack, would the bearded man lose his job? After losing his job, he will find another job, but it will be difficult to track down. However, as a bodyguard, there is no reason for him to mobilize the resources of the police department. Zhong Ze felt that this guy should still be working for the Ministry of Justice. "Didn''t this Jesse Colantono appear in the Department of Justice after the Deputy Secretary died?" "Yeah, the guard hasn''t seen this guy in the Justice Department since he made sure the new government was formed." The intelligence agent''s answer was like a basin of cold water being poured down again. It will be troublesome if the clue breaks here. For a while, the atmosphere in the room became very depressing, and everyone fell into deep thought. After a good while, Zhong Ze slapped the table and said: "No matter how much, since this guy is serving as a bodyguard for Deputy Minister Craig Eddy, Then the internal response in the police station must have something to do with the deputy minister. Even if the deputy minister is dead, we have to dig out his heels. Has the family situation of this Craig Eddie been investigated clearly? " The intelligence agent shook his head and said: "If you haven''t come yet, start investigating quickly, Just after investigating the identity of the bearded man, I came here to report to you. " Zhong Ze nodded and said: "Notify everyone to come over, our investigation direction needs to be adjusted." "Yes, sir." That night, all the intelligence personnel from the investigation department of the Fangyuan Group gathered in this ordinary house. Under the dim light, Zhong Ze was standing in front of a wall with a diagram of the relationship between the characters, On the wall is a drawing of Jesse Colantono''s character relationship. Facing the people in the room: "New changes have taken place in the situation, which is already clear to everyone. We are now going to adjust the direction of the investigation. Ge Cheng, your first team continues to search for clues in the Ministry of Justice, Since this operation can mobilize the police in Sao Paulo, the Department of Justice is absolutely inseparable. Is there any possibility that this Jesse Colantono, in particular, is continuing to work for someone big in the Department of Justice. " A skinny man stood up and said: "Yes, sir." "Qiao Zhongyuan, your team will start investigating the family situation of our Deputy Minister Craig Eddy tomorrow. See if there are any clues in his family. " "Yes, sir." "Cao Dazhu, your team, see if you can find it tomorrow, Alive with Jesse Colantono, another bodyguard situation. Since the two have worked for the same employer, at least there should be a connection, Maybe, you can find out who Jesse Colantono is working for. " "Yes, sir." "Wan Yuan, your team will continue to investigate Jesse Colantono''s family relationship tomorrow, Look at the people in his family. Are there any new leads. " "Yes, sir." "I don''t care who the mastermind is, but since he dared to attack our boss, Then you must be prepared to fight us forever. This is our first battle after joining the boss, can we fight well? Let the boss see our ability and role, it depends on everyone''s means. Do you understand everything? " Everyone agreed in unison. "Yes, sir." At this time, Fang Lang was standing outside the bridge of his aircraft carrier Rio de Janeiro, chatting with De la Torre beside him. "Della Torre, are you going to Fernando de Noronha soon?" Looking at the faint outline of the island in the telescope, Fang Lang felt very familiar. In later generations, he often saw it from a distance like this. This is known as the most beautiful and perfectly protected scenic spot in Brazil, but he never landed on this island. "Yes, boss. According to the plan, the end of our patrol route this time is just 20 nautical miles northeast of Fernando de Noronha Island. " As the chief of staff of the aircraft carrier fleet, De la Torre was responsible for formulating the route of this training mission. So, the whole time is paying attention to the nearby situation. "I heard that the scenery of this island is very good, have you ever been there to play?" Fang Lang asked with a smile. Who knows that De La Torre said with a puzzled face: "Boss, who are you listening to! The person who told you this is definitely not a good person. This Fernando de Noronha island is a place where prisoners are exiled. Its okay, who would come here! " Fang Lang''s knowledge of this island came from later generations. He didn''t know that the beautiful island in this period was actually a place where prisoners were exiled. "Ah! Is that so? Looks like I got the wrong message. Dont worry too much, we can just go around far away. " While the two were chatting casually, an officer walked out of the bridge, came to the two of them, stood at attention and saluted: "Your Excellency General, there is a communication from the House in front, and a suspicious ship has been spotted. Ignoring the warning of the House, broke into the route of my fleet. Looking at the direction of progress, it should be to enter Fernando de Noronha Island. House asked if an interception was required. " This stunned Fang Lang, who didn''t expect an unexpected situation to occur in a simple routine training. quickly turned around and walked into the bridge. (end of this chapter) Chapter 298: unknown ship Chapter 298 Unidentified Ship "House, this is Fang Lang, please report the position of the unknown ship." Fang Lang directly picked up the communicator and called the podium of the House. Soon there was a clear reply from the intercom: "Yes, Your Excellency General. The unknown ship''s position is 026, and the distance is 28 nautical miles. " After all, it is in Brazil''s own sea area. In order to avoid overheating of the radar when it is turned on for a long time, the radar on the aircraft carrier is not turned on at this time. All the ships of the entire aircraft carrier formation are turned on in turn, and the one whose radar is on at the moment is naturally the destroyer House, which is opening the way ahead. There are ships that do not obey the instructions of the Brazilian Navy in Brazilian waters, of course Fang Lang cannot be polite. But now is not a time of war, so you can''t just order to open fire at others indiscriminately. The distance is 28 nautical miles. It is too long to wait for the House to approach. I am now commanding an aircraft carrier, so Fang Lang said without hesitation: "Order the reconnaissance plane to take off and confirm the identity of the unknown ship as soon as possible." A communications soldier next to him immediately picked up the communicator and began to convey the order. Fang Lang smiled and said to Della Torre beside him: "I never thought that the first time I ordered a plane to take off, it turned out to be such a thing." De la Torre obviously did not expect that there would be unidentified ships in Brazil''s own territorial waters. With a serious expression, he said: "Boss, do you want to raise the fleet''s alert level?" Logically speaking, there should be no enemies near Brazil during this period. After all, World War II has just ended, and countries capable of launching wars in the world are licking their wounds. But after all, he is a senior general of the Brazilian Navy, leading the most powerful naval fleet in Brazil. Never be careless. So, he quickly realized that this is not the right time to joke. Even if this is a misunderstanding, it must be treated as a real enemy situation. Turned his head and nodded to De La Torre: "Whoever this guy is, we''re going to treat him like an enemy ship. Order the fleet to enter first-level combat readiness. " Della Torre nodded solemnly, picked up the call and broadcast: "An unknown ship was found in front of the fleet, According to the order of the official general of the commander of the fleet, the entire fleet has entered the first level of combat readiness. Please note this is not a drill! repeat! This is not a drill! " As the broadcast sounded, the entire fleet became restless. Radar and sonar are powered on. The anti-aircraft machine guns and anti-aircraft guns were torn off the gun coats. Personnel in various combat positions began to enter the battle positions. The soldiers moved boxes of ammunition to the gun positions and loaded the artillery with ammunition. The air became heavy. Due to the current lack of naval aviation, the naval aviation of the fleet is still responsible for training new students recruited by the school. Only two pilots were transferred and set off with the fleet. But fortunately, the naval aviation instructors of the US Advisory Group are all on the aircraft carrier. Although General Clark returned to the United States, he helped Fang Lang run a military contracting company. Fang Lang is not sure whether these aviation instructors will listen to his orders and help him perform combat missions. But Fang Lang believes that since everyone is on the same boat, it should be no problem to give them some benefits and ask them to help. Of course this is the worst plan. Now only a ship has been discovered, surrounded by destroyers and cruisers for protection, there should be no need for an aircraft carrier to take action. Soon a carrier-based reconnaissance plane roared from the deck into the sky, and flew straight towards the direction where the enemy ship was found. For an airplane, it takes 28 nautical miles and ten minutes to fly there. So, when the entire fleet was on standby, the reconnaissance plane quickly discovered the unknown ship that the House said. The pilot of the reconnaissance plane is the Brazilian HNA pilot Sam Dudley, who belongs to the Rio de Janeiro. Today''s weather is clear, with clear directions, Sam Dudley quickly discovered a small black spot on the sea. He took out his binoculars and took a look, only to find that it looked like a fishing boat. Without any hesitation, he directly lowered the altitude and flew over. Upon closer inspection, it is really a fishing boat, and the tonnage of the fishing boat is not large, it seems to be more than 50 tons at most. Sam Dudley was relieved. Continue to lower the altitude, and continue to observe at a position less than 100 meters away from the opponent. But it was discovered that the fishing boat had no obvious nationality mark. Sam Dudley quickly picked up the communicator and called: "Eagle''s Nest, Eagle''s Nest, I''m a hummingbird, please answer!" "The eagle''s nest received! Hummingbird please speak!" "Hummingbird discovered that the unknown vessel was a fishing vessel of unknown nationality. Need a Hummingbird Warning to Drive Away! " "Eagle''s Nest received! Please keep monitoring and wait for further orders!" Fang Lang on the aircraft carrier quickly received the information. "Your Excellency, according to the approach of our plane for reconnaissance, we found that the person who broke into the route of our fleet was a fishing boat of unknown nationality." The intelligence officer holding a briefing report stood beside Fang Lang and reported. Fang Lang frowned when he heard this situation, and asked suspiciously: "Fishing boat?" "Yes, Your Excellency General. Ahead pilot asks for warning shots to drive away from ship. " Fang Lang thought about it. If he wanted to be a fishing boat, it was normal that he did not receive a warning from the House. After all, not every ship is equipped with radio communications these days. It seems that this time there was an oolong. I just dont know why this fishing boat didnt fly the national flag. "Keep watching! No warning shots, if it''s our own Brazilian fishermen. After we ask the House to send someone to board the ship for inspection, it is enough to drive us away from the voyage. " "Yes, Your Excellency General." After receiving the order, the intelligence officer stood at attention and saluted, then turned and left. Soon Sam Dudley received the order. "Hummingbird, hummingbird, I''m Eagle''s Nest, please answer!" "Eagle''s Nest, Eagle''s Nest, I''m a hummingbird, please tell me!" "Hummingbird, please keep monitoring. The expulsion mission will be carried out by the House." Sam Dudley, who was flying around the fishing boat, sighed after hearing the order. It seems that there is no chance to fire this time. Then, he found two people on the fishing boat came to the bow, and they had a long gun in their hands. The muzzle is already aiming at himself. Sam Dudley was shocked. "FUCK!" Because the plane is only more than 100 meters away from the fishing boat. Sam Dudley didn''t dare to bet that the opponent would miss him. Immediately there is a sharp turn to leave. But he still heard a "bang", and the other party had already fired. Fortunately, he responded in a timely manner, coupled with the speed of the plane, Sam Dudley did not feel that the plane was shot. However, this behavior of the fishing boat has completely angered him. Open fire on Brazilian naval aircraft in Brazilian waters, and that is war. "Eagle''s Nest, Eagle''s Nest, here are hummingbirds, please answer!" "The eagle''s nest received! Hummingbird please speak!" "A gunman on an unknown ship shot at me, Hummingbird applied to fight back." "What? Hummingbird, damaged?" "Reporting to the Eagle''s Nest, the hummingbird left in a sharp turn and was not injured for the time being." "Please stay at a safe distance and continue to monitor. Eagle''s Nest immediately applied for permission to fire. " The situation ahead quickly spread to Fang Lang. This situation was far beyond Fang Lang''s expectations, and he turned to look at De La Torre and asked: "Who do you think the other party will be?" Della Torre apparently did not expect to encounter such a situation in his own territory. "I don''t know, could it be a smuggling ship?" Fang Lang thought for a while, and said directly: "Don''t worry about it, just arrest the other party directly, won''t you know the trial?" After finishing speaking, he turned his head and said to the intelligence officer beside him: "Tell the pilot that I want to live, and he is allowed to fight back, but I must be kept alive." "Yes, sir." The intelligence officer who received a clear order stood at attention and saluted, then turned and left. Sam Dudley soon received orders from the Eagle''s Nest. Glanced at the fishing boat not far away, celebrating wildly because he pulled away. showed a disdainful smile. Start celebrating now, isn''t it a little too early to be happy. Pushing the rudder, it flew directly to the right and circled to the rear of the fishing boat. muttering, "Since the higher-ups want to live, it''s okay to make you lose motivation!" After speaking, point the nose at the stern rudder of the fishing boat, and it is a shuttle. The 12.7mm aviation machine gun is so powerful that it directly shreds the tail of the fishing boat. The people on board obviously did not expect that the plane''s revenge would be so fierce. Just a short burst, the fishing boat lost power, and the speed dropped directly. What was even more frightening was that the machine gun shot through the aft cabin, and the fishing boat began to flood. The people on the boat screamed in fright. It also made the several people with weapons in their hands more fierce. They picked up their rifles and started shooting at Sam Dudley''s plane. Fortunately, Sam Dudley had expected it long ago, and he pulled up and left immediately after hitting the fishing boat. It made the counterattack on the fishing boat seem so weak. After Sam Dudley had already fired, he seemed a lot more relaxed. This trip was not in vain. A small short burst made the opponent lose the ability to resist. Although the target he was dealing with was a small fishing boat, it made him look a bit invincible. But Sam Dudley didn''t care at all. Now is a peaceful age, and it is quite rare to get a chance to actually fight. What kind of bicycle do you want? Looking at the fishing boats on the sea that were getting slower and slower, Sam Dudley knew that his goal had been achieved. The current fishing boat is a living target floating in the sea, and there is no chance of escaping from his control. Soon, a huge destroyer appeared in his sight, and Sam Dudley flew the plane from the side of the destroyer. On the side less than fifty meters away, he waved his wings lightly as a greeting. The crew members on the ship are also waving to him. Sam Dudley let out a satisfied smile, "Yeah! It''s a great feeling." This huge destroyer is naturally the meritorious battleship House that Fang Lang originally commanded. The two transport boats on the destroyer were released. Two teams of heavily armed marines rushed towards the fishing boat floating not far away with the boat. Sam Dudley didn''t leave, because your own aircraft carrier is very close here, and your own cruising range is completely sufficient. Of course he didn''t want to miss such an interesting event, so he drove the plane, above the two traffic boats, and flew towards the fishing boat in a zigzag shape. The people on the fishing boat were obviously frightened by the huge destroyer not far away. One of the captains yelled a few times, and all the crew raised their rifles with serious faces, aiming at the approaching traffic boats and planes. Sam Dudley piloted the plane at a relatively high angle, so he was the first to see clearly the movements of the people on board. He was startled, what kind of fishing boat is this! Everyone can pull out a weapon, not a pirate! Thinking in my heart, I have already pulled the joystick in my hand and started to climb up. (end of this chapter) Chapter 299: arms smuggling Chapter 299 Arms Smuggling The communication methods in this era are not very advanced, and Sam Dudley has no way to directly contact the marines on the two transportation boats. I wanted to remind the soldiers on the traffic boat that it was too late for the opponent to aim their guns. So, after the plane climbed to a safe altitude, the nose was directly pressed down, and a warning shot was fired at the waters next to the fishing boat. The gunmen on the fishing boat obviously knew that the large-caliber machine guns on the plane were not easy to mess with. At the moment of the gunshot, they all lowered their bodies and hid on the deck. When they heard the gunfire stop and found that the fishing boat hadn''t been shot, Qi Qi breathed a sigh of relief. The practice of the reconnaissance plane naturally attracted the attention of the soldiers on the two traffic boats. This is a warning to the people on the fishing boat, why should it be warned? Then there must be an abnormality found! So, the marines began to be cautious. Pick up the weapon in your hand and aim at the direction of the fishing boat from a distance. I dont know what the people on the fishing boat were thinking. Just after confirming that they hadnt been shot, someone raised their rifle again and shot at Sam Dudleys plane. With two "bang bang" gunshots, it was impossible to hit the high-speed reconnaissance plane. But the two gunshots also made the marines on the transportation boat extremely nervous. It seems that this fishing boat has 100% problems. It is either smuggling or drug trafficking. Maybe there is a big problem. The squad leader in charge of one of the traffic boats said directly to the machine gunner on the traffic boat: "Damn, this group of gangsters are very fierce! Give them a shuttle, warning shot. If you dare to resist again, I will not be polite. " Hearing the squad leader''s order, he stood on the transportation boat all the time, holding the machine gunner with the M2 heavy machine gun fixed on the transportation boat. Opened his mouth and smiled and replied: "Understood, sir." After finishing speaking, when he pulled the bolt of the gun, a shuttle was aimed at the bow of the fishing boat. This gun was not aimed at a person, but a large-caliber bullet hit the hull, making a "clinking" sound of metal collisions. Still scared everyone on the boat to tremble. Sam Dudley, who had been on guard in the sky, was relieved to find that everyone on the fishing boat was lying on the deck, not daring to move. The traffic boat on the destroyer is not as large as the fishing boat, and its height is not as high as the fishing boat. So, when everyone on the fishing boat lowered their figures, the marines could not find the enemy target at all. Fortunately, there is a reconnaissance plane in the sky to cooperate. The enemy did not dare to stand up and shoot at them, and they were able to safely board the fishing boat without any international markings. "Quick, quick, aboard, aboard." Under the deterrence of heavy machine guns from the traffic boat, the marines finally boarded the ship successfully. The fully armed marine soldiers aimed their guns at the enemy hiding behind the ship''s side. "Don''t move, put your head in your hands and lie on the ground." At this time, the enemy has already understood that the situation is over, and they are facing the dark guns of professional soldiers. Most people followed the orders of the soldiers. But no matter where they are, occasionally there will be some diehards who would rather die than surrender. A short and stout young man lay motionless on the ground like the others after the soldiers boarded the ship. But his hands were hidden under his body instead of covering his head as required. This quickly attracted the attention of the Marine Corps squad leader. After aiming the gun at this guy, he shouted angrily: "Hold your head in your hands, what about you! Put your hands where I can see them." Following the squad leader''s call, other fighters also noticed this unusual guy. They turned their guns and aimed at this guy to prevent accidents. But no matter how the squad leader shouted, this guy remained motionless as if he couldn''t hear him. A fighter is closest to this guy, stepping directly over an enemy lying on the ground, and coming to this guy. Pointed the gun at his head, and shouted: "Bastard, get your hands out, quick, or I''ll shoot you." Maybe feeling the cold touch of the muzzle of the gun above his head, the short and strong man lying on the ground slowly turned his head to show a smiling face at the soldier, But this smiling face is not the kind of smile that makes people feel warm, but a sinister smile that makes people feel cold. The soldier with the yellow teeth on his mouth tightened his heart and raised his gun to shoot. But he saw this guy turn over directly, leaking the two grenades he was holding tightly in his hand. As he turned over, the ring of the grenade bounced off. Just heard this guy yell, "Onboard!" The soldier already knew that this guy had bad intentions when he saw his ferocious smile. The first time I saw the grenade in his hand, With a bang, the gun in his hand rang. The guy who was yelling "half a load" just now was shot through the head. But the two grenades in this guy''s hand have already rolled onto the deck of the fishing boat. It was too late to say it, but the soldier pulled the trigger and yelled "Grenade!" Then rolled on the spot, lying on the deck two or three meters away. The attention of the marines around them was also attracted by this side, and they reacted immediately, and they all searched for the nearest bunker and got down. Some fighters simply jumped into the sea directly. Immediately afterwards, two loud noises of "boom" and "boom" were heard, and the whole fishing boat shook for a while. Then there was the sound of metal shrapnel falling to the ground. Sam Dudley, who had been hovering over the fishing boat, saw that the marines had boarded the fishing boat, and thought he was all right. Just as he was about to leave, he heard two loud noises below. Quickly turned his head and looked down, and saw two **** of black smoke rising from the fishing boat. Knowing that an accident happened below, he hurriedly lowered his height, wanting to get closer to observe the specific situation. At this time, the fishing boat was already in a mess. The soldiers of the Marine Corps responded in a timely manner, except for two people who were scratched by flying shrapnel. Others were not injured, but the two fishing boat crew members lying next to the short and strong young man were quite miserable. The grenade rolled right beside them and exploded. There was almost no way to hide, and they were sent away by the grenade. When this unexpected situation happened, the angry Marine Corps squad leader cursed. The soldiers were more cautious and rough when arresting the remaining prisoners. And the enemies didn''t know whether they were stunned by the grenade or had resigned themselves to their fate. Did not resist, was soon **** by the soldiers, escorted to one side and squatted down. After dealing with the situation on the deck, the soldiers began to advance to the cabin. Fortunately, all the enemies have gathered on the deck, and nothing unexpected happened in the cabin. No enemies were found hiding. "Squad leader, come and have a look." A soldier opened a wooden box in the cabin, and found a row of M1 Garand rifles inside. The squad leader stepped forward to take a look, and was also taken aback. "Damn it, no wonder they are so desperate, it turns out they are some arms smugglers. Immediately count the specific number of these guys, we need to report to the fleet command. " There are more than 30 wooden boxes of this size in the cabin alone. There are more wooden boxes of other specifications. You dont need to count them in detail. There are at least 300 M1 Garand rifles inside. "Yes, sir!" Several soldiers stepped forward one after another, opened the wooden boxes one by one, and confirmed the condition of the goods in the boxes. Fang Lang on the Rio de Janeiro soon received a detailed situation report. "Your Excellency, this is an arms smuggling ship. There are 300 M1 Garand rifles on board. Eighty Thomson submachine guns, Ten M1919 Browning medium machine guns. Fifty boxes of grenades and some ammunition. " The intelligence officer reported to Fang Langhui with a report. "Arms smuggling ship? Where is this going to be shipped? Fernando de Noronha? " Fang Lang looked puzzled. Della Torre did not expect it to be an arms smuggling ship. Brazil does not ban guns, but the arms on this ship are obviously not civilian firearms. These are all active equipment in the United States. "Looking at the direction they are heading, it is obviously Fernando de Noronha Island. Boss, maybe this time we really have to visit the beautiful island you mentioned. " Fang Lang naturally felt that there was nothing wrong, Turning his head to the intelligence officer beside him, he said: "Since the opponent''s arms are going to be sent to Fernando de Noronha Island, Then let the reconnaissance plane go to the island to investigate first, See if you can find any abnormalities. " "Yes, sir." The intelligence officer stood at attention and saluted before leaving, but was stopped by Fang Lang. "Also, let them figure out who these guys are. Are you a full-time arms dealer? Surprisingly, the sale of US military equipment has not been authorized by Shata Corporation! Don''t wait for the flood to wash away the Dragon King Temple. " Fang Lang remembered at this time that the only seller of American equipment is Shata Company. As the major shareholder of Shata Company, it would be embarrassing if I wiped out the salesmen of my company later. The intelligence officer didnt quite understand what it meant that the flood flooded the Dragon King Temple, But other issues are easy to figure out. The existence of the Shata Company, De la Torre vaguely knew something, after hearing Fang Lang''s words, smiled and said: "Boss, don''t worry too much. With the size of Shata Company, It is impossible to do such a small business. With this little equipment, these guys may not even have the chance to become a subordinate of the Shata Company. " Fang Lang thinks this should be the case, after all, there is at most one battalion of equipment here. It is estimated that none of the Shata company salespeople are interested in participating. Fang Lang shook his head with a smile, and said indifferently: "No way, the information reported by these guys is incomplete, and we don''t know the identity of this group of people now. We can only wait for them to ask clearly before we can confirm how to deal with it. " As he spoke, he continued to raise the telescope in his hand and looked at Fernando de Noronha Island not far away. asked casually: "You said such a beautiful island, isn''t it a waste to exile prisoners? I think that this place can be used as a base for our naval aviation. The good point of construction is an unsinkable aircraft carrier. " De La Torre couldn''t help being taken aback when he heard the words. Fernando de Noronha Island is less than 400 kilometers away from Natal and 550 kilometers away from Recife. The geographical location is indeed very superior. If there is really a base on it, it will be equivalent to a military base in the northeast corner of Brazil, which is inserted more than 400 kilometers into the Atlantic Ocean. "It''s a pity that Fernando de Noronha is just a volcanic island and there is no suitable deep-water dock. Cannot berth large ships, otherwise it would be better as a naval base. " Just when the two were discussing the island. Sam Dudley, who received the order, has already turned the plane to this beautiful island. Fernando de Noronha is actually an archipelago consisting of 20 nearby small islands with a total area of ??26 square kilometers. Seeing a string of green islands in the endless sea is simply a visual treat for Sam Dudley. This is much more interesting than staring at the blue sea all the time. (end of this chapter) Chapter 300: Suspicious target Chapter 300 Suspicious target At this time, Fernando, the people on the island of Noronha, obviously did not welcome this unexpected guest. "Sir, there is a plane flying towards the island from the northwest, should we shoot him down?" A short Asian man bowed respectfully to a middle-aged, chunky Asian man sitting on a mahogany chair. "Why do you want to shoot it down, let him come when the plane comes. There is no place for him to land on the island, what can he see? Let our people hide in the woods, just don''t be seen by him. " The middle-aged, short, fat Asian man waved his hands casually, although his movements seemed casual and imposing. But when he spoke, his voice leaked because of missing a few front teeth, which was a bit funny. The short Asian man took the order directly, turned and left. A man with gray hair sitting on the side said to the middle-aged man: "Mizuno-kun, should we be more careful. We have been on the island for so long, but we have never encountered a situation where a plane appeared. " The middle-aged short fat man called Mizuno-kun smiled and said: "Don''t worry! This is a place specially used in Brazil to exile prisoners. No one is ever bored, come here to check. Besides, even if we come to check, we dont need to be afraid, we are prisoners who have been exiled! " The gray-haired man said: "However, Brazil is deporting us now. If other people find that we are still in Brazil, will it be?" The short and fat man named Mizuno-kun patted the arm of the white-haired man beside him and said: "Xiao Lin-kun, there is no need to worry. Since I was able to get the ship that repatriated us to send us to this small island. I naturally have the ability to keep us safe. After the arms we purchased arrive, we can kill all the other prisoners on the island. At that time, there will be only us Japanese on this island. And this place will also become the overseas territory of our Great Japan. At that time, His Majesty Tianhuang may directly confer me a nobleman! " The white-haired man called Kobayashi-kun is obviously not as confident as Mizuno-kun. Although he seemed to agree with Mizuno-kun''s statement, he kept nodding. But the moment he lowered his head, there was a mocking look of disdain on his face. "That''s right, Mizuno-kun is still so powerful that he was able to get those Brazilians to send us to this island. Once we can completely occupy this small island, we can be regarded as expanding the territory of the Great Japanese Empire. At that time, after Mizuno-kun was canonized as a nobleman by His Majesty Tianhuang, Please support us a lot. " Mizuno burst out laughing after hearing Kobayashi''s words. Patted Xiao Lin on the shoulder and said: "Don''t worry Kobayashi-kun, Mizuno will never forget Kobayashi-kun''s contribution." Sam Dudley, who was far above the island, first flew around the coastline of the island, and found nothing unusual. Then flew to several places on the island with houses to observe carefully, and still did not see any abnormalities. I saw many farmers in the farmland, busy in the farmland. But there is nothing unusual about this. After all, this small island is just a place where prisoners are exiled, not a prison. So the prisoners on the island can move around. The farmland on the island is obviously a source of food for the prisoners to be self-sufficient. Just when Sam Dudley was about to report that there was no abnormality, he found that in a farmland by the woods, several Indian farmers were gathering and pointing at the woods not far away. After their own plane flew over their heads, they just looked up at their side, then pointed to the woods not far away and laughed. It seemed that he had seen something funny, and Sam Dudley, who was 100 meters high, could feel the mocking emotion. Sam Dudley moved in his heart, lowered the altitude of the plane, and flew along the farmland beside the woods. Looking across the woods, they quickly found the target of their ridicule. It turned out to be a group of Asians hiding in the woods. Sam Dudley shook his head, thinking that these people are really rare and strange, they may be a group of bumpkins who have never seen an airplane. Frightened by the plane I was flying. It''s not like he hasn''t encountered this kind of situation before, so he smiled indifferently. Secretly thought that he was sensitive. He didn''t pay much attention to it, and directly lifted the plane and flew to other places. Fernando-De Noronha Island was originally not that big. After going back and forth four or five times, basically the entire island was scouted by him once. Nothing suspicious was found. Fang Lang received the investigation report of the arms smuggling ship by the House at this time. "Report, General. The situation has been verified. This group of people is a gang organization in Recife. Recently someone asked them to buy this batch of arms. Their boss arranged for them to deliver the goods to their door. They don''t know who the buyer is, but, according to their boss, the person who paid is a big shot in Brazil. Only their boss knows who it is. The other party arranged for an escort, but when we boarded the ship, the person in charge wanted to detonate a grenade and die with us, but was shot dead by our soldiers. " Fang Lang was taken aback by the situation reported by the intelligence officer, and said somewhat incomprehensibly: "Shouldn''t this kind of arms deal be paid for and delivered with one hand? How I hear this means, someone paid this gangster organization. Then the gangster will directly deliver the goods to the designated location and hand them over to another person. " The intelligence officer nodded and said: "Yes, Your Excellency the General." "This gangster is so honest in his business? After receiving the money, are you really responsible for delivering the goods to your door? Those who give money, arent they afraid that gangsters will swallow the money directly? " "Yes, Your Excellency, According to the person responsible for the delivery, the person who paid was a big shot. Their boss can''t afford to mess with them. " Now, Fang Lang felt really interesting. Smiling, he turned his head and said to De La Torre, who was thinking aside: "Brazilian bigwigs paid money to gangsters to buy arms, and entrusted gangsters to transport them to a small island where prisoners were exiled. What is this for? " Della Torre glanced at the intelligence officer and asked: "Do they know who the recipient is?" "They don''t know, only the person in charge of the **** knows. But that person is dead. " Fang Lang smiled and asked: "Who is the person in charge of the escort, do they know?" "Those gangsters said that the person in charge of the **** did not speak during the whole process. It was also the first time they had seen this person. Didn''t even know who he was. However, our soldiers heard that the guy in charge of the **** yelled "Banzai!" when he rang the grenade. " Hearing this, Fang Lang stood up suddenly, stared at the intelligence officer in front of him and said: "What did you say this person''s name is?" The main reason is that the intelligence officer''s accent is also a bit wrong. After all, after several times of retelling, its only **** that a sentence in a foreign language can still be kept true. However, Fang Lang immediately heard the familiar smell from this specious word. The intelligence officer obviously did not expect that Fang Lang''s reaction would be so great. Hastily recalled it carefully before saying: "That soldier said it seemed to be "Banzai"." Fang Lang already had a guess in his mind, but the intelligence officer was obviously not familiar with this term. "Send that soldier over immediately. I want to hear him repeat it himself." The intelligence officer did not hesitate, and quickly stood at attention and saluted: "Yes, Your Excellency General." Della Torre next to him was confused, and asked Fang Lang with a puzzled expression: "Boss, do you know what this sentence means?" Fang Lang looked serious, nodded to de la Torre and said: "If I''m not mistaken, the guy yelled "Onboard! " This means long live in Japanese. " De la Torre has also been to Japan, but he is not familiar with Japan. Certainly not quite sure what that means. But he is still very convinced by Fang Lang''s judgment. "The boss means, this is a Japanese?" Fang Lang nodded seriously and said: "That''s right, only the Japanese would do such crazy things. and shouted such slogans. " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, de la Torre said with a serious expression: Since the Japanese mob besieged the presidential palace, the Japanese have now been repatriated from all over Brazil. How could there be Japanese in Recife? " Fang Lang touched his chin and said: "It shouldn''t be just in Recife." As he spoke, his eyes were already looking at Fernando de Noronha Island, which was faintly visible in the sea. Della Torre followed Fang Lang''s gaze, and quickly reacted. "The boss means that there are Japanese on Fernando de Noronha Island?" "Isn''t this obvious?" Fang Lang unconsciously sneered on the corner of his mouth. Della Torre certainly knows that Fang Lang hates the Japanese, and he can understand what they did in Japan when they were serving as the Japanese occupation army. For Fang Lang, being hostile to the Japanese is political correctness. So he said without hesitation: "Boss, why don''t we send troops directly to the island and kill all the Japanese." Fang Lang pondered for a while, then shook his head and said: "There''s no rush right now, we''re just guessing right now, Wait for us to confirm first whether the guy in charge of the **** is Japanese or not. Confirm again to see if there are really Japanese on the island. If everything is true, we have to figure out, what do these people want to buy arms? And who the **** is the Brazilian mogul who is paying the bills. " Della Torre understood Fang Lang''s meaning and nodded. Soon, the plane responsible for reconnaissance landed on the aircraft carrier. The intelligence officer took Sam Dudley directly to the bridge where Fang Lang was, and reported the situation to Fang Lang. "Your Excellency, this is Sam Dudley, the pilot of the reconnaissance plane who just flew back." Fang Lang and Sam Dudley know each other. After all, there are only ten pilots in the entire aircraft carrier formation. Sam Dudley didn''t expect that the intelligence officer would bring him directly to meet the commander. Quickly stood at attention and saluted: "Your Excellency, Sam Dudley has completed the investigation mission and is here to return!" Fang Lang smiled back and said: "Sam Dudley did a good job. This is our first combat mission after we officially equip an aircraft carrier in Brazil. How do you feel?" Hearing this question, Sam Dudley laughed so hard that his back molars almost leaked out. Excitedly said: "Your Excellency, I feel very good." Everyone laughed out loud. Fang Lang patted him on the shoulder and said: "Hahaha, as long as you feel happy. So did you find anything unusual on the island this time? " Hearing Fang Lang ask about his mission, Sam Dudley quickly corrected his attitude, and replied after a serious salute: "Report to Your Excellency General, because I don''t know who the target is this time, I could only circle five times over Fernando de Noronha, After my inspection, I didn''t find any suspicious targets. " Fang Lang nodded and asked: "Then did you see any Japanese on the island?" Sam Dudley was taken aback by the question, what do you mean? The enemy is Japanese? Then, I quickly remembered the Asians I saw hiding in the woods. (end of this chapter) Chapter 301: locking Chapter 301 Locked "Your Excellency, I found many Asians hiding in a forest. But I''m not Japanese, so I don''t know. Originally, I thought these people were hiding because they had never seen a plane and were afraid. So, I don''t think there is anything suspicious. " Sam Dudley quickly told the truth about what he saw, and explained the reason why he didn''t find anything suspicious as he said just now. Fang Lang smiled and said: "It''s okay, I just suspected them just now. Have you seen how many of them there are? " Sam Dudley didn''t think there was any problem with these people at all at the time, and of course he didn''t observe each other carefully. So, regarding Fang Lang''s question, he could only shake his head helplessly and said: "I am very sorry, Your Excellency General, At that time, I didn''t find any abnormalities in these people, so I didn''t observe them carefully. I can go right now if need be. Scout them again. " Fang Lang patted Sam Dudley''s arm and smiled: "No, we just need to confirm that there are indeed Japanese people on the island. You have worked hard today, go down and rest first! " Sam Dudley was a little embarrassed to see Fang Lang being so talkative. Turned around by myself, but found nothing wrong. It still needs to be questioned by the chief to know that there are Asians on the island. It is a big problem. After all, Fernando de Noronha is where Brazil used to exile felons and political prisoners. How can there be Asians? What''s more, when these people saw a plane coming, they even hid in the woods. I didn''t even notice such an obvious abnormality. Today''s performance is really not ideal. If the people on the fishing boat don''t fire like him, he won''t notice any abnormalities. There is no fishing boat that does not carry out fishing operations. The more Sam Dudley thought about it, the more he felt a little stupid today. Secretly decided to learn some information science knowledge. In the future, this kind of situation must never happen. After a round of reconnaissance, no abnormalities can be found. "Yes, Your Excellency General." Sam Dudley stood at attention in a depressed mood and saluted, then turned and left. Della Torre''s serious opponent said: "Boss, now it seems that he is undoubtedly Japanese. Why do these little Japanese want to purchase such a large amount of arms in Brazil? Do you want to attack the presidential palace again? " Fang Lang was also thinking about what these people wanted to do. First of all, one thing can be confirmed, there must be a lot of Japanese here. This can be determined based on the amount of arms smuggled. So many munitions can definitely arm an infantry battalion, and there must be soldiers of an infantry battalion, other logistics personnel and civilians, old and weak women and children added together. There are at least 2,000 Japanese people on the island. How did these Japanese who should have been deported out of Brazil be gathered in Fernando de Noronha? Who will be behind this operation? This person must have a lot of energy. After all, not everyone can silently transport these Japanese who should have been repatriated to this small island. But Fang Lang didn''t quite believe it if he was to say that he was a great man. If you are a big shot, you don''t need to be so troublesome at all. The real big shots can directly influence government decision-making through their own political influence. For example, the behavior of Japanese mobs attacking the presidential palace. In fact, you can only pursue the Japanese mobs who participated in the action! At this time, if you are really a big shot, you should stand up and speak out for the Japanese who did not participate in the operation but were about to be repatriated. At least stop the Brazilian government from listing Japanese as the most unpopular group! However, none of these actions can only show that this person is either a middle-level official with real power. Or a group of grassroots officials with real power. Now it is not particularly difficult to track down this person. After all, the boss of the gang in Recife must have clues somewhere. But these are not the most important. What Fang Lang wants to know most now is, what is the purpose of these people arming an infantry battalion on Fernando de Noronha Island? Arming must be for war, so who will the enemy be? First of all, it must be the Brazilian government. After all, they are all illegal immigrants now. If they are discovered by the Brazilian government, they must continue to be repatriated. Since they chose to stay in Fernando de Noronha Island, they definitely don''t want to go back to Japan. In this way, they must establish an armed force to confront the Brazilian government and avoid being repatriated. Second, it is Fang Lang himself. Of course, Fang Lang''s actions against the Japanese are relatively secretive. All actions in Brazil are carried out in the name of a government. For the first time in Sao Paulo, Fang Lang was definitely not the main contributor to the discovery of the identity of the Japanese Black Dragon Society spy organization. Of course he was directly responsible for catching the fish that slipped through the net in Rio de Janeiro. All the actions during the second period of serving as an occupying force in Japan were in the Japanese mainland. With the current situation of the Japanese in Brazil, they should not be very clear. Of course, it must be directly related to Fang Lang that prompted Brazil to participate in the Pacific War and land in Japan. But these things are only known to a few people at the top of the military. As for the third time, the attack on the presidential palace that completely pushed the Japanese into the abyss, it was Fang Lang who deliberately spread the news and used the Japanese ministers and Taoists. Although the above three actions are all related to Fang Lang. But these things have nothing to do with Fang Lang on the surface. It is impossible for the Japanese to discover how much Fang Lang, an old bastard, has made a great contribution to driving the Japanese out of Brazil. So, the possibility of the opponent arming a battalion to target Fang Lang should not be great. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the Japanese do not want to see the Chinese power grow in Brazil, and list him as the possibility of their greatest enemy. As for the third possibility, the Japanese were bullied by the original islanders on Fernando de Noronha Island. Want to buy arms to resist, this is the most likely. After all, the people on the island are serious criminals, so they must be very aggressive. Suddenly so many small men with thin skin and tender flesh appeared on the island, and they looked easy to bully at first sight. Moreover, there must be many Japanese women among those who were repatriated. Among the islanders made up of prisoners, women appeared. Isnt this sending sheep to the tigers mouth? Hell if there is no conflict! Therefore, the greatest possibility of these arms is to fight against the non-Japanese on the island. If this is the case, Fang Lang is happy to see it succeed. With the **** nature of the Japanese, there will definitely be a bloodbath on the island. If such a thing really happens, Fang Lang can make a big fuss. After all, the Japanese have become street rats in Brazil now, let the Japanese create a tragedy in Brazil. Fang Lang is sure to send these Japanese to **** completely. "Boss, the marines on the House who are in charge of attacking the arms smuggling ship have arrived." The intelligence officer walked up to Fang Lang again and reported. At this time, in fact, Fang Lang no longer needed information from the Marine Corps, and he was nine times sure that the **** was Japanese. However, since the person has arrived, of course it is better to confirm in person. "Let them in!" Fang Lang nodded to the intelligence officer and said. The intelligence officer nodded, turned and left, and soon brought in three soldiers. The soldiers entered the room and stood at attention to Fang Lang to salute. "Your Excellency, good afternoon!" Fang Lang smiled warmly, and returned the salute to several people. Enthusiastically stepped forward to shake hands with everyone, which made several soldiers very excited. This is the supreme commander of the Rio de Janeiro aircraft carrier formation. Although Fang Lang is about the same age as them, the difference in status is huge. Fang Lang''s approachable performance really flattered them. This is also Fang Lang''s principle of leading troops. He is as close to the soldiers at the bottom as brothers, which makes all the soldiers at the bottom support him very much. Of course, Fang Lang''s soldier allowance is also one of the important reasons why the soldiers support him. He is also very kind to the low-level military officials, and coupled with the deliberate propaganda in the army, the entire grassroots worship and support Fang Lang very much. However, Fang Lang is very strict with the senior officers under Fang Lang''s direct leadership, and his requirements are also very strict. As for these senior officers, how to strictly demand the middle-level officers and grass-roots officers under them is their business. has nothing to do with Fang Lang. His image in the minds of the grassroots is very perfect. All the bad things are because my superior officer is too feathered, and he uses chicken feathers as arrows. If there are middle and high-level military officers, they dare to damage Fang Lang''s glorious and stalwart image below. Then his military career will end early. Therefore, Fang Lang''s image among the bottom soldiers is very good, and everyone is willing to work hard for him. "Hello! Are you all not hurt?" Fang Lang checked the soldiers while talking. Seeing that everyone is fine, he looked relieved. The squad leader among the soldiers quickly stood at attention and saluted: "Your Excellency, we are not injured. The two slightly injured brothers have returned to the warship and received timely treatment. " After hearing this, Fang Lang nodded in satisfaction, then turned to the adjutant Qi Qingshan and said: "After going back, remember to arrange it in my itinerary, I''m going to see the situation of the two wounded. Remember to tell the military doctor to use the best medicine for the wounded to ensure the soldiers recover as soon as possible. " Qi Qingshan hastily took out a small notebook to write it down, and stood at attention to say yes. The three soldiers were even more moved after hearing this. Fang Lang said to the three soldiers again: "It''s good that you''re not injured. Every time you go on a mission, you must remember to protect your own safety." The three soldiers stood at attention and saluted: "Yes, Your Excellency General. Thank you for your concern." I was thinking in my heart that the next task must be done with even more effort, so as not to lose the trust of the general. "I heard from the intelligence officer that you heard the criminal who wanted to attack you and called out before the attack. Can you tell me what his name is?" Hearing Fang Lang''s question, all three nodded in unison. The squad leader said directly: "Yes, Your Excellency the General! We heard him shout "Ban Zai!" ", and threw two grenades out." Fang Lang coughed and said: "What you heard was "Ban Zai!" "Or "onboard"?" The squad leader said in surprise: "Your Excellency, this is your pronunciation. Because we don''t know what language it is, we can''t learn it so similarly, but I''m sure it''s what you said. " The two soldiers behind also nodded repeatedly: "Yes, Your Excellency General, that''s how you pronounce it just now." Fang Lang and De La Torre on one side looked at each other and understood. Needless to say, this is a real hammer. is Japanese. (end of this chapter) Chapter 302: eddie family Chapter 302 Eddie Family After the three fighters left, de la Torre said to the other party with a serious face: "Boss, do we need to arrange for the marines to land on the island and clean up the Japanese on the island?" Fang Lang laughed and shook his head and said: "Don''t worry, we are the army, not the police. We don''t need to come forward for this matter yet. They didn''t do anything out of the ordinary, so we don''t need to take action directly. " "But their identities are illegal. Although Fernando de Noronha Island is only a place for exile, But also belongs to Brazilian territory. We should expel them. " Della Torre has a clear attitude and wants to clean up all these Japanese. Fang Lang was very satisfied with his attitude, smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said: "Don''t worry, since they have the idea of ??buying arms, I''m really looking forward to what they can do in the end. As for the situation on the island, we act as if we dont know anything. As for this ship of arms and smugglers, just drag it back and hand it over to the police! " Della Torre vaguely understood Fang Lang''s thoughts, and asked softly: "Boss, what do you mean, let these Japanese continue to develop for a while?" Fang Lang nodded with a smile and said: "After going back, find out how many exiled prisoners there are on this island. I want to see how many of these people are left in the end. " "Now that the Japanese ammunition has been intercepted by us, they should not be able to fight the prisoners!" Neither Fang Lang nor De La Torre care about the life and death of the prisoners on the island. Now the judgment of the two people is obviously the same. This batch of munitions is used to fight the prisoners on the island. "If it is intercepted this time, will it not be sent again? What I''m curious about now is who is this big guy responsible for paying for the support of the Japanese. " "That''s why you want to detain this batch of arms and let that big man show up, right? However, if we find the boss of this gangster, can''t we also find this person? " Della Torre didn''t quite understand Fang Lang''s thinking. Fang Lang smiled and said: "Finding gang bosses is the job of the police, we are not the police. But the affairs on the island must be under our control. After returning to the base, let the second division of the logistics department arrange people to go to the island. Tell me about the situation on the island. " Della Torre nodded seriously. "Should we check on the big guy who made the payment?" The cold light in Fang Lang''s eyes flashed, and the corner of his mouth smiled and said: "Of course we have to investigate, let the second department of the logistics department also investigate. But check secretly, don''t let the police know. I reckon the gangsters treat them as big shots, maybe they are high-level police officers. " "Ah! If it is the high-level police, then we hand over the gun to the police, isn''t it meaningless?" Fang Lang smiled and patted De La Torre''s shoulder and said: "Don''t worry, let''s watch slowly, maybe this will be a big show!" Next, the entire aircraft carrier formation continued its own training as if nothing had happened. It was just a telegram to report the occasional encounter with an arms smuggling ship near Fernando de Noronha Island. After two days, when the aircraft carrier formation returned to the Natal Naval Base, There is already a line of police officers waiting outside the naval base to receive these criminals. Regarding the handover of criminals, Fang Lang did not participate in the whole process. As if it was just a trivial thing. No one reported the abnormal situation on Fernando de Noronha Island. As for how the police investigate later, the military does not need to participate. Rio de Janeiro, the third floor of an apartment next to Roy Avenue. A man in a black suit and a black top hat knocked on the door of an apartment near the road. A vigilant voice asked in the room: "Who?" The man outside the door looked around, found nothing unusual, and said softly: "You, Uncle Zhong." The door quickly opened a small crack, a young man passed through the crack, glanced at the people outside, nodded and said: "Minister." After the two nodded, the young man opened the door. After the man entered the room, the young man walked out of the room and put a garbage bag outside the door. He looked around and found nothing unusual before entering the room and closing the door. The lights in the room were not turned on, and the curtains were drawn. There was only a faint light, shining into the room from the night outside through the gap in the curtains. Let a dark room have a glimmer of light. It can be vaguely seen that behind the two windows near the street, there are people looking out with binoculars. After the man entered the room, he took off his top hat, came to a window, and observed a three-story villa across the street through the gap in the curtains. I saw that the villa was brightly lit at the moment. From here, we could clearly see that there were several people eating in the restaurant on the first floor opposite. There is a big dog on the lawn outside the villa, lying in front of a kennel bored. "Jong Yuan, are you sure? This is the home of Craig Eddie on the opposite side?" Zhong Ze asked while carefully looking at the situation of the villa. In the darkness, a voice sounded. "Yes, Minister, this is the home of that Deputy Attorney General, Craig Eddy. It is his wife and eldest son, Brisso Eddie, who live here now. " Obviously, this is the voice of Joe Jong-won, who is in charge of investigating Deputy Justice Minister Craig Eddy. Zhong Ze took out a binoculars from his pocket and carefully observed the people in the opposite restaurant. continued to ask: "Have they figured out their identities?" "Yes, the deputy minister''s wife is Claudia Sebefia, a white Portuguese born in an aristocratic family in El Salvador. Father served as a member of the Bahia State Councilor during his lifetime. The eldest son, Brisso Eddie, is forty-two years old this year and is now the Secretary-General of the Labor National Committee. A close friend of former President Vargas. The second son, Raymond Eddie, is thirty-eight years old this year and is the director of the Public Security Department of the Brazilian Police Headquarters. The youngest daughter Saida Eddie, 33 years old this year, is married to the former police chief of Rio de Janeiro. " Hearing Qiao Zhongyuan''s introduction, Zhong Ze put down his binoculars in surprise, and glanced at Qiao Zhongyuan in the dark. This family is really not simple! Ordinary people who can afford it. In the dark room, no one can see the expression on the face, But you can feel the dignified atmosphere. "Then is there any suspicion in their family?" This time in the dark room, you remembered another voice. "Minister, Jesse Colantono, has been serving the Eddie family since the death of Craig Eddie. is Raymond Eddie''s driver and bodyguard. " "So, it''s the Eddie family who attacked the boss." Zhong Ze''s voice was a little cold, and he couldn''t hear any emotional fluctuations. "It seems that they are the most suspected. But we have no substantive evidence. Nor do they know their motives. " The voice in the darkness continued. "Wan Yuan, how did you know that Jesse Colantono is working as a driver for Raymond Eddie?" Obviously, the other person speaking in the dark is Wan Yuan who is in charge of investigating Jesse Colantono''s family situation. "Minister, I went to Jesse Colantono''s hometown to investigate his family situation. His hometown is an ordinary town in Paran state. Everyone in the town knew that he worked as a bodyguard for the big shots in Rio de Janeiro, and his brother also got a job at the local police station. I found out from his family''s neighbors that he is now Raymond Eddy''s driver. Back in Rio de Janeiro, I heard from a cleaner at the police headquarters that after the death of Craig Eddie, has been working as a driver for Raymond Eddy. However, Raymond Eddy''s driver has been replaced since June. No one knows where he went. " Zhong Ze said no more at the moment, because the matter was already very obvious. As long as you are not a fool, you will understand what is going on. They are intelligence agents, not police officers. They don''t need to have specific evidence. Based on the current information alone, they can determine the suspicion of the Eddie family. After a long while, Zhong Ze spoke again: "From now on, keep an eye on every member of the Eddie family. Find out all the relationship networks of their family. Even if it is what color underwear their lover wears, you have to investigate it for me, understand? " "Yes!" There was a muffled but forceful response from the room. "Also, whether the boss knows it or not, why did the Eddie family attack the boss. We must also investigate clearly the motives of the Eddie family. As far as I know, our boss should not have any conflicts with them. It is impossible for the opponent to attack the boss for no reason. " Zhong Ze ordered again with a serious tone. "Yes." The answer in the room was still concise and clear. "Everyone knows that this family is not simple, everyone must be careful when investigating. In order not to leave a handle on the other party, everyone must be prepared to sacrifice at any time. I''ll have a bomb vest for each of us. If found out. Everyone must destroy the evidence as soon as possible, and we must not let others discover our Chinese identity. Understand? " This time Zhong Ze''s voice was very low, but his tone revealed his firmness. The voice in the room did not hesitate. still responded firmly and neatly: "Yes!" Everyone knows what Zhong Ze means by destroying evidence. This is not to destroy the evidence of their investigation, but to destroy the evidence of their existence. Prepare a bomb vest for everyone to destroy, of course, their own flesh. As military agents operating in Shanghai, when they were engaged in intelligence work, they were already prepared to sacrifice at any time. If Boss Dai hadnt bumped into a mountain and someone wanted to take them on top of the tank, they wouldnt have escaped to Brazil. They had already escaped, so they lost the enthusiasm for throwing their heads and blood for the country and the nation. I just want to live my life well and use my skills by the way. Find a job with Fang Lang. Who knows that after staying in Fangyuan Group for a period of time, I discovered that Fangyuan Group has been immigrating from their hometown in order to plan a new world for the Chinese. has been contributing money and efforts to the development and growth of the Chinese in Brazil. Slowly, everyone regained a trace of passion. Now someone wants to attack the leader of the Brazilian Chinese, no matter what the other party''s reason is. That is also the sworn enemy of all Chinese. Therefore, everyone should not only hit the enemy hard, but also avoid giving the other party an excuse to attack the Chinese. The best way not to leave excuses is, of course, to destroy the corpse. "Minister, in this situation, can we use surveillance methods on the Eddie family. When our investigation department was established some time ago, I got a batch of the most advanced monitoring equipment from the U.S. military from the Shata company. I think it should work this time. " In the darkness, Zhong Ze''s voice was cold and heartless. "Yes, we will do anything to our enemies." "Yes, sir!" Everyone seems to have returned to their years in the military command. (end of this chapter) Chapter 303: Great changes in my hometown Chapter 303 Great changes in hometown Fang Lang, who had just returned to Natal, also fell into deep thought after receiving Zhong Ze''s information. No matter in his impression or in the impression of his predecessor, he never offended the Eddie family. He didn''t quite understand why this family wanted to attack him. After all, he is not some nobody. A dignified rear admiral, a military general with a heavy hand. What kind of male leopard dares to do such a thing? However, judging from the current situation, this Eddie family still has a lot of heritage. Credo Eddie, who died in the riot at the presidential palace alone, needless to say, was definitely a close confidant of President Vargas. After his death, his eldest son was able to serve as the secretary-general of the Labor National Committee in his forties. It can be seen that this family is definitely the absolute confidant of former President Vargas. According to the historical process, Vargas will be re-elected as the President of Brazil in 1950. It is estimated that by that time, the Eddie family will be even more prosperous. There is an old man who has served as the deputy minister of justice, so it is very easy to know the action plan of the investigation team of the Ministry of justice. Fang Lang is not very clear now that it is the meaning of the entire Eddie family to attack him. It still means one of them. It''s not that he only wants to target one of them, but this matter makes him a little confused. Since it is going to war with the opponent, it must not be a matter of one person, but a matter of the entire family. He wouldn''t naively think that as long as he got rid of the person who wanted to attack him, it would be fine. He is very clear about the principle that if you don''t cut the grass, the root will regenerate when the spring breeze blows. But the biggest advantage now is that the battlefield is no longer one-way transparent. As a hunter, he is very patient. Since he returned to Sao Paulo some time ago, he has been making high-profile appearances, and no one has made any moves to see, For the time being, the other party should be planning to let things cool down first. After the limelight passes, see if you want to proceed to the next step. As for whether the other party will give up just now, assuming that this matter has never happened, Fang Lang thinks it is impossible without thinking about it. The other party may not understand the truth that if you beat a snake, you will suffer from it. However, since he has already dealt with a powerful faction in the military, he should not think that this matter can be resolved. After all, no matter how flawless they are, they will leave clues. Once Fang Lang finds out, everyone will die forever. Fang Lang locked himself in the office and thought for a long time, why did the other party attack him? I wondered if it was President Vargas who found out that the Japanese mob attacked the presidential palace was related to him, and asked his confidantes to take revenge. But he was quickly denied by himself, after all, although Vargas has stepped down. His political influence still exists, and it is impossible to adopt such a simple and rude method to deal with him. Yes, the method this time, in Fang Lang''s view, is a bit simple and rude. Except, because of President Vargas, Fang Lang really couldn''t think of where he offended the other party. Its okay, Fang Lang is not a person who likes to be horny, Since he couldn''t figure it out, he stopped thinking about it. After collecting more information, you can always find the reason why the other party attacked you. There is no need to make yourself unhappy for an insignificant enemy. It''s a big deal to learn from the other party, let''s do something simple and rude. If you can''t solve the trouble, get rid of the troublemaker. I want to get rid of the troublemakers, but I dont want to find some gangsters, who cant get up and down, and leave a lot of hands. Hearing the loud shouts of killing coming from outside, and the explosions of various firearms. Fang Lang has a kind of arrogance that he has the military power in his hands and the world lets me go. To get entangled in these problems, it is better to train your soldiers first so that they can form combat effectiveness as soon as possible. When there is a need in the future, you will not be caught blind. Just when Fang Lang was about to get up to supervise the training of the soldiers. The phone on the desk rang, Fang Lang picked it up casually. "Hello! I''m Fang Lang." The anxious voice of uncle Fang Xinshui came from the phone: "Langer! Is it convenient to talk now?" Fang Lang looked up at the empty office, smiled and said: "It''s convenient, tell me what''s the matter, uncle!" "Langer! I just received a telegram from Shanghai, and my hometown is at war again." Fang Xinshui''s voice was a little deep. The news that came out was very surprising. Fang Lang calculated the time, and history didn''t seem to have changed. What should come has finally come. But for my hometown, this is not a bad thing, after all, it cant be broken or built! "It seems that a new wave of independent immigration is about to usher in. We have to be prepared, this time there may be a lot of rich people. These people are not kind people, Let our bank open branches in Jinmen, Shanghai, and Huacheng. All those who want to immigrate to Brazil must deposit money in our bank, We are responsible for transferring their funds to Brazil, but all large funds must charge no less than 30% of the handling fee. " Fang Lang raised his butcher knife calmly, but don''t think Fang Lang is greedy. This 30% is not a particularly high handling fee. This era is not a later age, an era in which computers can transmit data synchronously at any time. The risk of fund transportation is very high. "Are you only charged 30%? The risk of our transportation funds is very high for such a long distance. In addition to the war over there, if one is not good, our funds may not be withdrawn! " Fang Xinshui is obviously more greedy than Fang Lang. Fang Lang smiled after hearing this and said: "After all, we are compatriots, and it is not okay to go too far. As for security issues, we have dispatched more security personnel to protect the safety of funds. When each ship leaves port, all funds in the bank must be transferred. Never leave money locally, understand? Also, we only accept Gold and USD, GBP. No legal currency whatsoever. Understand? That''s waste paper. " "The qualifications of these immigrants still need to be reviewed?" Fang Lang thought for a while before saying: "Forget it, those traitors who haven''t run away now have probably been squeezed dry by the government. At this time, those who can still have money to immigrate are probably relatives of government officials. By the way, after these people arrive in Brazil, they may not be used to living in the house where we house immigrants. You hurry up to find places and build some villa areas. Then sell them at a high price. This is a good time to develop real estate business, don''t miss it. " Fang Xinshui obviously had a very bad impression of some people in his hometown during this period, and heard that Fang Lang wanted to continue to squeeze them. is also in a good mood, laughing loudly: "Okay! Then I''ll scrape off another layer of oil on them." "Well! Be careful not to scare people away. If we go to places like the United States, we will lose money. " Fang Lang did not forget to remind. Fang Xinshui laughed out loud after hearing this. "Don''t worry! I''m a professional at knocking bones and sucking marrow." After hearing Fang Xinshui''s words, Fang Lang was a little worried for the domestic capitalists who were about to start running away. Three seconds of silence to show respect. Fang Lang didn''t know what kind of mentality he was in at this time, Although he had expected and prepared for what happened in his hometown. I thought he would be very sad when it actually happened. But the fact is obviously not the case, but there is a sense of relief that has finally begun in my heart. The immediate reaction was how he should use this matter to maximize his own interests. After this period of development, has he become indifferent? Fang Lang, who had no reason, became a little vigilant. Remind yourself not to forget your original intention, not to be blinded by money and wealth, and not to get lost in the vortex of power. "By the way, uncle, has the St. Paul police chief been selected?" As part of the compensation for Mayor Scalia, Fang Lang handed over the candidate for Mayor of Sao Paulo to his uncle Fang Xinshui to choose. After all, Fang Xinshui used to be a mixed society in Sao Paulo, and the future headquarters of Hongyi Church must also be located in Sao Paulo. More importantly, the first thing the new director does after taking office must be to clean up the gang forces in Sao Paulo. The vacuum zone after cleaning must be taken over by Fang Xinshui''s Hong Yitang. At this time, it is very necessary to arrange a police chief who is very familiar with Fang Xinshui. "I used to have a familiar policeman in the St. Paul Police Department, but he is just an ordinary sheriff. I don''t know if he is suitable." After hearing Fang Xinshui''s words, Fang Lang shook his head helplessly. It seems that he hasn''t figured out what kind of person this position needs. "Uncle, what we need is an obedient police chief, not your friend. If he was just a sheriff and you directly make him the police chief, he may not be able to control the entire police station at all. At that time, any action we want to take will be constrained everywhere, and there is no way to achieve our goals. I suggest that you can ask your friends about the main candidates who are most likely to be promoted to chief of police in the St. Paul Police Department. Then, talk to each of them individually. Whoever is capable and smart enough to work for us, we will choose him. As for your friends, after you have confirmed the candidate, you can mention to the other party that it was your friend who recommended him to you. For the rest, he will know what to do. do you understand me? " Fang Xinshui obviously still doesn''t understand. He came from a mixed society, and he is more loyal in doing things. So, I still hope that my friend can become the chief of police. In this way, he can rest assured that he will not be stabbed in the back. "But if he is capable and smart enough, won''t he have his own ideas? What if you dont listen to us? " Fang Lang smiled helplessly and said: "Don''t worry! If he is really a smart person, he will definitely not be against us. After all, if we can make him police chief, we can also make him step down. In order to be able to sit firmly in the position, he will definitely let us see his value. And this is what we need. In this way, we can not only achieve our goal, but also find a background for your friends, and even a chance to improve slowly. Wait for when your friend is really capable and can fully grasp the police station. We naturally have a way to send him up. But not now, you understand? I hope you can make it clear with your friends. Let him help us at the police station to keep an eye on the new chief we helped up, and report to you in time for anything. In addition, we will train more of our own people in the St. Paul Police Station in the future, Make sure that if there is any disturbance, you can hear the wind as soon as possible. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 304: Big Boss in Recife Chapter 304 Recife''s boss As the largest city in northeastern Brazil and the capital of Pernambuco, Recife has a population five times that of Natal, and its economic strength ranks fifth in Brazil. At this time, in a Portuguese-style two-story building on Le Mans Avenue in Recife, a middle-aged Indian with long hair was lying on a wooden bench enjoying himself, and a maroon beauty with big waves massage service. From the involuntary groans he makes from time to time, it can be seen that he is enjoying it very much. "A little bit above, yes, yes. This is here, push hard, eh! Comfortable. Haha you are really my little baby. Tear, tap, what! Well, you can work harder! " The sound made by ?? made the two young men standing at the door a little hot all over, and their eyes were always unconsciously attracted by the perfect curve of that maroon beauty with big waves. But such a peaceful and tranquil scene was quickly interrupted by a hasty knock on the door. The two young men looked at each other, as if they were unwilling to leave their boss''s side, wanting to fulfill their duties as bodyguards. As for whether it is really so, only they themselves know. There was a burst of eye contact, staring at each other, trying to make the other party give in with their eyes, and went down to open the door. But both of them were obviously unwilling to leave their posts. Finally, the hasty knock on the door aroused the dissatisfaction of the long-haired middle-aged man enjoying the massage, and cursed: "Are you deaf? Dont roll down and open the door yet. " The two of them, a young man with a slightly thin figure, finally lost the battle after hearing the boss''s scolding. After looking at the maroon big wave for a few more times unconsciously, he reluctantly walked downstairs. When he reached the corner, he did not forget to make a friendly gesture to another young man. Another young man returned the same gesture with a look of disdain. The slightly thin young man, with an unhappy expression on his face, walked down the stairs cursing, and before reaching the door, he yelled: "Who!" The young man outside shouted anxiously: "Vasek, you bastard! Open the door, I''m Girard. Something serious happened, take me to see the boss quickly. " The two obviously knew each other, and they knew who it was when they heard the voices talking inside. The young man named Vasek became more casual when he heard the other party''s voice, and still had an unhappy expression on his face. Came to the door unhurriedly, opened the door and said: "Gillard, you bastard, the one time you went to the boss, you didn''t tell the big thing. But in fact, it''s not all trivial things. If you continue to be so startled and disturb the boss to enjoy Miss Luna''s massage service, The boss will throw you downstairs. " As the door opened, a black guy with an afro-haired head pushed the door open and barged in. Fiercely pushed away Vasek who was still standing at the door, and cursed: "This time something really happened, it''s a matter of human life, you let me get out of the way. Wait until you miss the boss, see if the boss will kill you! " Before the words fell, the person had already flown past Vasek and rushed into the stairs leading to the second floor. Vasek, who was pushed a bit, had an expression of disbelief on his face, and glanced at the stairway where the figure had disappeared. He continued to curse dissatisfiedly: "I believe you to hell. I opened the door for you, its fine if I dont say thank you, but I pushed me away. This impolite bastard. " He stuck his head out of the window and took a look. Seeing that there was nothing unusual, he slowly closed the door and walked upstairs. The afro-haired black guy named Gillard strode up the stairs, and came directly to the door of the middle-aged man with long hair, shouting: "Boss, something big happened. Boss!" Before he crossed the threshold, he was stopped by a young man standing at the door. "Gillard, what do you want to do, have you forgotten the rules of the boss? Stand still, I want to search. " The long-haired middle-aged man enjoying the massage service in the room did not make a sound, and continued to enjoy the massage service of the maroon big waves. Gillard was stopped, so he had no choice but to stand outside the door, open his arms and let the youth standing at the door search him. While being searched, Girard wanted to continue to report the situation. But after taking a look at the maroon big wave who was massaging the long-haired middle-aged man, he had no choice but to swallow the words that came to his lips. Finally, the search of the youth at the door was completed, and Vasek, who went down to open the door, also walked to the door. The man in charge of the body search looked at the big maroon wave, and said in his mouth: "Boss, no problem." This is going to be seen by outsiders, thinking that this maroon big wave is his boss! The long-haired middle-aged man didn''t lift his head, and said directly: "Let him in!" The young man at the door stepped aside when he heard the boss speak, and let Girard enter. Girard ignored the young man standing by the door, stepped directly into the room. Watch where the long-haired middle-aged man is enjoying a massage. Because of the big maroon wave, Girard hesitated, wondering if he should continue to report. After all, there are outsiders here. The long-haired boss waited for a while without hearing anyone speak, turned his head, opened his eyes, and looked at Girard who was standing in the room with a tangled expression. "Didn''t you say something big happened? What happened?" Gillard struggled for a while, seeing that the boss didn''t seem to want the big waves to leave, he said: "Boss, there is something wrong with the big man''s goods." The long-haired middle-aged man, who was lying on the bench enjoying a massage, bounced off the bench as if he was getting an electric shock when he heard this. Jean, who had been lying on his back and massaging him, was pushed away several steps and exclaimed "Ah!". Almost fell to the ground, but the middle-aged man with long hair didn''t seem to notice it, and waved his hands directly with a face sinking like water: "go out!" Big chestnut wave saw the face of the long-haired middle-aged man, and knew that he couldn''t say much, so he quickly lowered his head and hurried to the door. The two youths standing at the door watched the big wave pass by without stopping them. It was the young man in charge of the body search. His nose twitched twice, as if attracted by the scent of the chestnut big wave. The long-haired middle-aged man didn''t notice this, and now his attention has been completely attracted by the news brought by Girard. His eyes were fixed on Girard, as if he was a ferocious beast that wanted to choose someone to eat. "Tell me clearly, what happened?" Gillard, a black young man with an afro, felt uncomfortable being stared at by the boss, swallowed hard and said: "Boss, Boss, just got the news from the police station. The ship we delivered to Fernando de Noronha kept advising that it broke into the route of the navy fleet and was detained by the navy fleet. During the seizure, there was an exchange of fire between the people on board and the navy. The person in charge of the **** on the ship died. Our people, even the ship and the goods, were detained by the navy. Now the Navy has notified the Recife Police Department to go to the Natal Naval Base to take over the case! " After the long-haired middle-aged man heard Girard''s words, his entire hair was about to stand up in anger. Panting: "Asshole, why did you break into the route of the navy fleet? What does that **** Wright want to do? Is he impatient with life? Also, the person responsible for the **** died, why are they still alive. " Girard, who was standing opposite, could feel the anger emanating from his boss, because the other party''s saliva had been sprayed on his face. But the boss doesn''t know the answer to these questions. And I dare not express my opinions at will, otherwise I will be used as a punching bag. He could only stand still and let the boss vent his anger. The long-haired middle-aged man wearing only a pair of underwear also knew that the subordinates in front of these questions could not give him the answer. Fortunately, the Navy did not come directly to make trouble, but let the Recife Police Department take over the investigation of the case, so there is still room for maneuver. The crux of the problem now is whether the goods seized by the navy can still be retrieved. After all, the navy is not a policeman. If you want to take out the things that have been in the pocket of the navy, you don''t have to have money. He has heard of what kind of naval fleet the navy at Natal Naval Base is. That''s a fleet with an aircraft carrier. The Yakub family, which used to overwhelm the sky in Natal, was wiped out of Brazil overnight. In Natal now, no underworld forces dare to get involved. The original DP transportation line through Natal was transferred to other places. After venting impotently and furiously for a while, the long-haired middle-aged man, as if thinking of something, grabbed the clothes beside the bench and put them on. Said to Vasek who was standing at the door: "Prepare the vehicle and let''s go back." Vasek nodded to express his understanding, went to the window and pushed it open, took a look outside, but saw nothing unusual. Put your hand to your mouth and whistle once. Soon, more than a dozen people walked out of the houses on both sides of the street, and Vasek pointed to the vehicles parked downstairs. Everyone began to gather at the vehicles on the side of the road. After the long-haired middle-aged man got dressed, he opened the door and walked out. The three upstairs quickly followed. Walking to the car on the side of the road, Girard stepped forward and opened the door of the car very dog-leggedly. Please get on the long-haired middle-aged man. The long-haired middle-aged man got into the car without even raising his eyelids. Vasek sat in the driver''s seat of the car and was responsible for driving. The young man who stood at the door and was in charge of the body search sat in the co-pilot seat. After confirming that the long-haired middle-aged man sat down, Girard closed the car door lightly. Walked to the other car behind, opened the rear door, and squeezed in. After the convoy left, they came out of the small building just now, by the window of another room on the second floor. The beautiful woman with chestnut wavy hair, wheat-colored smooth skin, and a good figure glanced down to confirm that everyone had left. Only then returned to the room just now, and closed the window. Here is his residence, and she is the lover of the long-haired middle-aged man. Leaving the convoy from Le Mans Avenue, they drove non-stop all the way to a two-story office building near a seaside wharf warehouse. This is the stronghold of their gang. Driving the car into the yard in front of the office building, people kept coming out and nodding to the long-haired middle-aged man and calling him boss. But the long-haired middle-aged man is obviously not in the mood to talk to these subordinates today. Instead, he walked straight into a room on the second floor with a sullen face. After pushing the door and entering, he said to a middle-aged man with wheat-colored skin inside: "Jerry, immediately prepare another batch of goods according to the list of goods sent to Fernando de Noronha Island last time. How long do you need? " The middle-aged man named Jerry was startled by the sudden opening of the door, and instinctively wanted to turn around and curse. He could hear the voice of his boss, and quickly suppressed the swear words that were about to come to his mouth. "Ah! Boss, we don''t have so many good goods in our warehouse! However, I heard that a batch of high-quality munitions flowed out from the army some time ago. The quantity is large and eaten by a big guy, if you want it, I will contact you now. But it will take a week at the fastest to be shipped to Recife. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 305: looking for goods Chapter 305 Looking for goods The long-haired middle-aged man was obviously dissatisfied when he heard Jerry''s words, and said eagerly: "One week is too long. Two days, we only have two days at most. I don''t care what method you use or how much you spend. The goods must be prepared according to the original list. " After hearing the words of the long-haired middle-aged man, Jerry said with embarrassment on his face: "Boss, two days is really too late! This batch of goods is in Rio, and the transportation time alone is not enough for two days! " The long-haired middle-aged man looked at the remaining people in the room, waved his hand, and signaled everyone to go out. After everyone went out, he approached Jerry and whispered: "Jerry, the cargo we shipped to Fernando de Noronha was seized by the Navy. Now we must find a way to prepare a new batch to send over. If the goods are not delivered in time, let some big man suspect that we have swallowed his goods. We''re done. Understand? " The eagerness in the long-haired middle-aged man''s heart is beyond words, and a pair of bloodshot eyes can already explain everything. Jerry obviously knew the importance of this batch of goods. Although he didn''t know who the big shot was. But he also knew very well that this was someone their entire gang could not afford to offend. Maybe because of this mistake, someone else can kill them directly with a word. But he really couldn''t do it in two days, he lowered his head and thought about it seriously: "Boss, can we explain the situation to this side clearly? Let him help clear up the relationship with the Navy and get this batch of goods out? " After hearing Jerry''s words, the middle-aged man with long hair glanced at him with caring eyes, and then said to his capable subordinate: "what are you thinking! If this big man is suitable to come forward, is there still a need to find us? If we still want him to clear up the relationship, what is the difference between him and himself. Do we still have the meaning of existence? Do you know how they deal with useless people? " This Jerry must be a smart man who can be trusted by a long-haired middle-aged man to manage the arms business. The boss has already said it so clearly, if he can''t understand the deep meaning, he won''t be able to get to where he is today. His complexion became very ugly in an instant, and he came to a desk and pushed the things on the table forward. Sit on it. "But, boss, if there is no way to get the goods from the navy, We can only go to Rio to purchase, there is simply no time in time! " The long-haired middle-aged man''s face was livid, and Te also understood that this was not Jerry''s problem. Its not good to get angry at him. After standing up and walking around the room for a few steps, Suddenly thought of something, he hesitated and said: "You just said that the batch of arms in Rio came from the army?" Jerry was thinking about which route he should take the fastest to transport from Rio. Didn''t pay much attention to the boss''s question, and casually replied: "Yes. I also heard rumors from the sermon." After receiving an affirmative answer, the long-haired middle-aged man clapped his hands and said excitedly: "We are also looking for the garrison in Recife, what do you think?" Jerry was taken aback by the boss''s sudden clapping. After hearing what the boss said, he was surprised at first, but then fell into thinking. yes! Others can get munitions from the army, so can you also get it from your own side? If it is done at this time, wouldn''t I have a stable arms channel? The more I thought about it, the more excited I became, and my face, which was a bit ugly, slowly turned red. "Boss, this is really great, does it matter that you are in the garrison?" After hearing Jerry''s words, the long-haired middle-aged man blushed slightly, and embarrassment flashed across his face. Coughed twice, demonstrated his embarrassment, and said: "I know of a guy who''s in the military, I''ll go over and ask. See if there is a chance. But we can''t pin the opportunity here, you still have to contact Rio to see when it can arrive at the soonest. Understand? " Jerry is now excited about the opportunity to open up a new arms channel. Completely oblivious to the fleeting embarrassment of his boss. "Okay, boss, I''ll get in touch now. See when it will arrive the fastest. If the other party can deliver within a week, do we want it? " The long-haired middle-aged man frowned, slapped his thigh, and said with determination: "Yes, even if there is more, we can keep it in our hands and sell it slowly. If the army can''t get it, they will use their batch for delivery. If the boss is held accountable, we are not unprepared. " Jerry understood what the boss meant, and he was prepared. Nodded, picked up the phone on the table, and began to contact the source of supply. The long-haired middle-aged man left the office directly, looked at his subordinates outside the door, and said to Vasek: "Prepare the car, I want to go home." Wasek, who was playing poker with some gangsters outside, got up quickly after hearing the boss''s order: "The boss called me, this game doesn''t count!" As he spoke, he stuffed the poker in his hand directly into the poker table on the table and fumbled for a while, messing up the order, so as not to let people see what kind of card he was. Regardless of the reactions of the others, he got up and left. Leave a chic back. Provoked several poker players who were older at the same table to stare angrily, wishing to shoot black at the bastard''s back. But knowing that the boss was going home, they could only stand up one after another and guard him. As the courtyard door of the office opened, a group of three cars left the office directly. Drive to a small villa not far from the sea. This is the real home of the long-haired middle-aged man, where his wife and children live. As soon as the vehicle drove outside the small courtyard, there was a sound of barking dogs coming from the small courtyard of the villa. After the vehicle stopped, the long-haired middle-aged man got out of the car and adjusted his instruments before striding towards the courtyard gate. After the long-haired middle-aged man pushed open the courtyard door, the disturbing barking finally stopped, and was replaced by a joyful call after seeing the director. Two little boys who were playing football in the yard shouted in surprise: "dad!" rushed towards the long-haired middle-aged man. The long-haired middle-aged man opened his arms and took the two children into his arms. affectionately said: "Miss Dad?" The two little boys nodded repeatedly and said: "Think about it." Many bodyguards outside the courtyard were full of envy when they saw this scene, what a happy family! The movement outside was natural, which attracted the movement in the house. A short, fat, middle-aged Caucasian woman in an apron came out with a shovel in her hand. After seeing the person outside the door, he was startled, and it took a long time before he opened his mouth and said: "Vox, you bastard, you still know how to come back!" It turned out that the long-haired middle-aged man was named Vox, and after hearing what the woman said, he smiled without getting angry: "Isn''t this busy at work? Today I finally found time to come back." The short, fat white woman had a mocking smile on her lips, and said disdainfully: "Busy at work? Afraid of dying on a woman''s belly! snort! I was also blind at the beginning, and I was fooled by you. " Vox put the two children in his arms on the ground, touched their heads, pointed to the football, and signaled them to continue playing. Seeing two children happily running to the football, just stood up, straightened the somewhat messy long hair on his head, walked towards the woman and said: "Honey, what are you talking about! The kids are still here! I''m so busy with work that I don''t have time to find women. " When he got in front of the woman, regardless of her struggle, he hugged her and kissed her on the face. I dont know if its because of being held in my arms, or because I was kissed. The woman''s attitude softened immediately, and she still muttered: "Hmph, you just know how to coax people. Let go, I''m still cooking! You didnt even make a phone call when you came back, and I didnt even cook your meal. " Vox is a master of love at first glance, and he can''t see the change in the attitude of the woman in his arms. The corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, and he said in distress: "Alas! I don''t have time to stay for dinner. Today I encountered a big problem, that is, I stopped by the house to see you and the children. I''ll have to find a relationship right away, otherwise all these years of hard work will be ruined in one go. Maybe it might even cost your life. " As Vaux''s woman, he certainly knows that Vaux''s business is not a legal business. Hearing the other party say that his life might be risked this time, he was also terrified. hurriedly asked: "What''s going on, should I look for my father." Vox patted the woman on the back and comforted the woman before saying: "No, this time the trouble is very big, and it cannot be solved by my father. Don''t bring your father into this. " Vox knows that his father-in-law is only a deputy chief of the Recife Police Department, and he is the kind who has retired to take care of himself at home. There is simply no ability to solve the problems I am encountering now. At the beginning, Vaux was able to grow from a small gangster to one of the best big gangs in Recife. Thanks to the help of his father-in-law, but with the retirement of his father-in-law, It is rare to provide him with any help. When the woman in her arms heard that her father couldn''t help, she felt even more anxious. It seems that this time things are really troublesome. "Then what should we do, should we take the child and leave Recife!" Vox saw that the time seemed to be almost here, so he said as if he remembered something: "Honey, I heard you said that the father-in-law wanted to marry you to an uncle''s son, right?" The woman in her arms didn''t expect that the man''s style of painting changed, and he started chatting about gossip when he was young. Tweaked: "What time is it, and I''m still thinking about these messy things! I''m already married to you. " Vox patted the woman on the back and continued: "I heard that this man is an officer in the garrison in Recife, right?" The woman immediately understood that Vaux wanted to ask this man for help. directly opened the mouth and said: "What''s wrong? Can he help you? I heard my father talk about it, as if he was already a major officer. " Vox''s eyes lit up when he heard this, he was still a major officer, Maybe there is a chance. "So can we find him? Maybe he can help." The woman thought for a while before saying: "Wait a minute, I''ll make two phone calls to ask." After speaking, he put the shovel in his hand on the table beside him, and wiped his hand on the apron. Vox also let go of his embrace, allowing the other party to leave. The woman hurriedly ran into the room to make a phone call, and Vaux smiled. Looking at the two children playing in the yard, a rare smile appeared on their faces. Actually, his wife was very beautiful when she was young, but it should be due to the physical problems of white people. After giving birth to a child, she swelled up like a balloon. Man! I have always exclusively liked young and beautiful people. So, Vaux will make some mistakes that men will make. He seldom goes home, but he knows very well that this is his home, and if something happens and he needs to run away, he will only take people from this family to run away. (end of this chapter) Chapter 306: Garrison Major Chapter 306 Garrison Major Ms. Vaux spent a long time on the phone, and it took more than half an hour before she heard the sound of footsteps coming from the living room. "Vox, I have an appointment with Staffan Capello. Visit at his house tonight. " Hearing what his wife said, Vaux was overjoyed. Although asking his wife to come forward this time and seek help from his original rival in love would make him feel a little ashamed and embarrassed. But it was his life-saving straw, so he couldn''t help but take it seriously. "Really? Honey, thank you so much." Mrs Vaux showed a sweet smile on her face. "What to say! We are family. I''ll prepare presents first. You have to freshen up and change into more formal clothes. " Vox quickly got up and said: "I''ll let them prepare presents, you go and wash up the children, we''ll change our clothes and set off." At this time, Vaux couldn''t care less about the embarrassment, wishing to see his former love rival now. After hearing what Vaux said, Mrs. Vaux did not refuse, and directly greeted the two children who were still playing outside: "Come here, kids, our family is visiting a friend tonight." The two children ran over happily after hearing this. Vox laughed and walked out, and didn''t forget to rub the heads of the two children as he passed by. Vox, who came to the courtyard gate, waved to the vehicles parked on the side of the road. Before Vasek opened the door, Girard ran to Vocks in a dog-legged way. Vox saw this, and showed Girard his first smile today. "Go prepare a more expensive gift, I''m going to visit a friend." Girard saw the smile on Vaux''s face, and his heart moved. The boss is the boss, and he found a solution to the problem so quickly. "Okay boss, I''m going to prepare now. " After speaking, he turned and ran towards a small bridge car on the side of the road, and soon the car drove away. Vox nodded in satisfaction, turned and went home. Several people in the car outside cursed and said: "This guy is a real sycophant." That day and night, in a small Portuguese-style two-story building on Mahogany Avenue in Recife, the Vaux family was having dinner with the owner. Everyone talked and laughed, and the children also had a great time. The host saw that the time was almost up, so he said to Vaux: "Vox, how about we talk in the study?" After the preparation in the early stage and the introduction from my wife, everyone has become familiar with each other. Vox also knew about it. The tall man in front of him, with a Chinese character face and two big beards, was Staffan Capello, a middle-aged man. Served as a major staff officer in the Recife Garrison. As for what this staff officer does, Vox is not very clear. But since he is a major officer, he must have certain rights. "Of course Capello, it''s my pleasure." Women saw and knew that the man was going to talk about business, so they nodded with a smile. Mrs. Vox took the initiative to get up and helped Mrs. Capello clean up the dining table. The two talked and laughed and exchanged their own parenting experience. Staffan Capello is only a major officer, so the financial conditions of his family are obviously not particularly well off. The study room at home is not big, just enough to fit a desk and two stools. The two walked into the study with their respective coffees and smiled, and the host and guest took their seats. Staffan Capello straight to the point: "Vox, I heard your father-in-law talking to me on the phone. You''re in some trouble right now and you might need my help, right? " Vox realized at this time that it was not Staffan Capello whom his wife had contacted by herself. It was through his father-in-law that he found the other party. He felt a little uncomfortable at first, but suddenly felt a lot more comfortable. But thinking that he still wanted to alarm his father-in-law, he was also a little embarrassed. But this matter is not a trivial matter. Such a big arms smuggling case will definitely reach the ears of my father-in-law sooner or later. The Recife Police Department knew that the shipment belonged to him without any investigation. He believed that the police would not dare to do anything to him, and even tried to find a way to wipe his ass. After all, when he took over the business, he was recommended by the deputy chief of the police station. Transferring the case to the Recife Police Department is equivalent to letting the Recife Police Department investigate themselves? Now his first priority is not thinking about how to escape the police investigation, but how to meet the needs of the big shots. As long as the big shots behind the scenes are satisfied, this investigation is a joke. And if the big man is not satisfied, then this investigation will become a noose around his neck, which can kill him at any time. This is why Vox didn''t want to run away after knowing that the ammunition was seized. Instead, find a way to find new sources of goods and continue to complete the transaction. Hearing Staffan Capello''s question, and looking at the environment of the other party''s home, Vaux felt that there should be a good chance of achieving his goal today. "Yes, brother Capello, thank you for being willing to receive me when I encounter difficulties and come to my door." After hearing Vox''s words, Staffan Capello smiled noncommittally. Picked up the coffee in his hand and took a sip before saying: "We are friends, it is right to entertain you, But whether it can help, I dare not say. Don''t look at me as a major officer, but in fact, I''m just a regimental staff officer. You have to understand that in the army, there is a saying: "A staff officer doesn''t have a commander, and he doesn''t fart!" So, you should tell your story first, and let me help you refer to it. See if I can help you. " Vox has never been a soldier, so of course he has never heard of this sentence, but he can understand what the other party means. But this is the only person who served in the army that he could come into contact with in his impression. Regardless of whether the other party can help him or not, he has to give it a try. With a humble smile on his face, Vaux considered how to speak properly. After all, this is a crime. No matter how I speak, it seems that the other party will be dragged into the water. So, after much deliberation, I decided to go straight to the topic. Picked up the coffee in his hand, took a big sip, moistened his dry throat and said: "I want to buy a batch of arms, I wonder if Brother Capello can help?" Staffan Capello was very calm after hearing Vox''s words. After all, he is not stupid. He was already thinking about this question the first time he knew Vox''s identity. What could happen if a gangster suddenly found himself, a soldier, for help? But he still agreed to meet with Vaux, which shows that the two have a certain basis for cooperation. Corruption in the Brazilian army is commonplace, let alone a local garrison like them, with a weak armament. Soldiers can have running training once a week, which is considered high-intensity training. When accepting the inspection by the chief, if you can stand in line, you will be considered qualified. As a major officer, if he wants to survive in the army, he has to work up and down. And he is not an officer leading troops, so he cannot receive the respect of his soldiers. You can only receive some benefits when you usually go to check somewhere. But this benefit, not to mention asking him to bribe his superiors, give him a promotion and a salary increase, is not enough to support his family. Now that he has the opportunity to earn extra money, he doesn''t want to give up easily. Hearing the other party''s request, he was noncommittal. Picked up a pack of cigarettes from the table, took out one, handed one to Vaux, put it under his nose and smelled it before saying: "How much do you want?" Vox, who was in a rough mood, was relieved when he heard Staffan Capello''s answer. My whole body trembled with excitement. Didn''t refuse, but asked him how much he wanted, wouldn''t that be enough? He didn''t talk nonsense, he directly took out the list from his pocket, put it on the desk, turned around, and pushed it in front of Staffan Capello. Staffan Capello did not reach out to pick it up, but picked up the match beside him and lit the cigarette in his hand. He casually threw the match in his hand to Vaux. Vox took it with both hands, pulled out a match and lit it for himself. Seeing Staffan Capello on the opposite side put a cigarette in his mouth, after taking a puff, he picked up the list on the table. Just glanced at it, and the cigarette in his mouth fell on his pants. Staffan Capello, who was burned, got up quickly and shook the cigarettes on the ground, regardless of the cigarettes on the ground. Looked at Vaux dumbfounded and said: "Are you crazy? Do you want to rebel?" Vox heard Staffan Capello''s question and watched him frightened by his own list. Suddenly felt that the other party was a little military officer with little experience! It was worse than when I saw this business. There was a sense of superiority for no reason. Coughed twice, and said with a smile: "Haha. Brother Capello, don''t be nervous. What rebellion? This is business understand? It''s just a business. What you should focus on is not the quantity of arms, but the amount. Understand? " Staffan Capello heard Vox''s words, and said very annoyed: "Is this a normal business? This is arms. There is enough equipment for a reinforced battalion here. With such a reinforced battalion, they can attack Recife. do you understand? " Vox saw that Staffan Capello was really scared, shrugged helplessly, stood beside him, patted his shoulder, motioned him to be calm, and said softly: "Don''t worry, I didn''t sell these arms to Recife." Hearing Vox''s answer, Staffan Capello became a little calmer. Ke still asked vigilantly: "Who would want such a large batch of arms." Vox squinted at Staffan Capello, showing a little disdain. I didnt see you so nervous when I just heard myself say it was an arms deal. Now after seeing the number, it reacts like a cat whose tail has been stepped on. Isn''t this wanting to be both? If he didn''t need the other person now, he would have already spit old phlegm on his face. After thinking about it, Vaux shook his head and said: "Brother Capello, we are businessmen, and we never care who the customers who buy the goods are. All I care about is whether he can afford the money. Besides, I think your worries are unnecessary. You think the quantity of this batch of munitions is large, that''s just your opinion. Dont you know that the guns in the hands of the citizens of Recife alone, Is the sum of them far greater than the number of your garrison regiment? Why don''t you ask who sold these guys? " Staffan Capello was a little speechless for a moment when Vox said it. After a long while, he said: "But there are also machine guns and grenades in here. These things should not appear in the folk. " Vox looked at the shy Staffan Capello, and felt that the guy he had found was obviously not a suitable business partner. Continuing to tangle with him on such meaningless topics is simply a waste of time. Simply put your mind to one side, and said directly: "Dude, no, you can''t afford such a large amount of ammunition!" (end of this chapter) Chapter 307: open and honest Chapter 307 Open and honest After hearing what Vaux said, Staffan Capello jumped up from his seat again, His eyes widened, and he said sternly: "What do you mean? Look down on me?" Vox is also a character who got mixed up with the gang boss, he still has some brains. After staring at Staffan Capello''s expression seriously for a while, he sighed and said: "Alas! Alright! It seems that you really can''t afford so many goods. Lets be honest, how much can you produce? " Vox''s words made Staffan Capello very ugly. He didn''t expect Vox''s appetite to be so big, the garrison in Recife only had one regiment, Staffan Capello, the staff officer, can also be regarded as the confidant of the chief of staff of the regiment. After learning that Vox wanted to see him in the afternoon. He guessed Vaux''s purpose. And took the initiative to report to the chief of staff. The chief of staff heard that there was an opportunity to earn extra money, of course he would not refuse. Tell Staffan Capello on the spot, let him come forward to talk with Vaux, and everyone will share the profits. Of course, 70% belong to the chief of staff. Ke Staffan Capello did not expect Vox to have such a big appetite. If the equipment of a battalion is really sold out, The garrison must have one-third of the people with empty hands. There is no need to ask for instructions. Staffan Capello knows that this is impossible. Even if the chief of staff dared to agree, he would not dare to agree. After all, he was the one who negotiated the deal, and it was really discovered. It must be him who is responsible for taking the blame, this is a matter of losing his head. At first, I thought that if Vox asked me, I could easily handle the other party and make a lot of money. But the current situation made him feel a bit in a dilemma for a while. But he is an adult after all. Now that Vaux has seen through him, he just blushed a bit. Quickly returned to normal, coughed twice to demonstrate his embarrassment, then sat down slowly and said: "We don''t have what you want?" Now it''s Vaux''s turn to explode, what do you mean, just now he was acting awesome in front of him. Ask yourself how much you want. Now telling himself he has no stock. Isn''t this playing tricks on him? The gang boss who was Vox is a gangster for nothing! Are you grumpy? He slapped the table and stood up straight away, staring at Staffan Capello with wide eyes and cursing: "You **** kidding me!" Staffan Capello was taken aback by the sound of Vaux slapping the table. He didn''t expect that this guy would dare to lose his temper at himself when he begged his door. After all, he was also a soldier, and he couldn''t stand being patted on the table by a gangster at his home. also stood up directly and stared at the other party, about to curse back. These are the two women talking and laughing in the kitchen, and they have heard the movement in the room. Put down their work one after another, and pushed open the door of the study. Mrs. Vaux was also speechless when she saw her husband''s expression of wanting to eat people. Hastily stepped forward to hold Vaux, and whispered: "Didn''t you say you came to ask for help? Why did you quarrel with someone. This time, my father got the chance to take advantage of his old face. If you screw up, my father will be ashamed to see others. " After speaking, he turned to Staffan Capello to apologize again and again: "Staffan Capello is really sorry, Vox''s temper is too bad, I caused you trouble today. It really doesnt work, lets go back today. We will come to apologize next time when we find time. " Obviously thought that Staffan Capello was unwilling to help, so Vox lost his temper. Capello''s wife also took Capello to comfort him softly, and repeatedly warned Staffan Capello that the opposite side was a guest. Do not conflict with guests at home. The intervention of the two women made the men calm down a little. Staffan Capello has already reported the meeting today to the higher authorities. If there is no gain, he will not be able to explain it to the higher authorities. Thinking that what he just said might have misunderstood the other party. Looking at the two women in the room, he patted his wife''s hand and said: "We''re fine, you guys go out first! I''m talking to Vox. " Vox heard what his wife said, and felt that it was inappropriate for him to lose his temper in someone else''s house. It is not an attitude of asking for help. Since the other party said that they would continue to chat, of course I have to see if there is still a chance. Staffan Capello asked his family to go out, he is very clear, These things are obviously not suitable for women to participate in. Patted his wife''s hand and said: "You go out first! Don''t worry, I know it well." The two women looked at each other, then at the two men, and after confirming that they would not fight, they exited the study and closed the door gently. After seeing the two women going out, Staffan Capello was the first to speak: "I mean, our garrison only has German weapons. Your list is full of American equipment, which we cannot provide. " Upon hearing this, Vaux patted his forehead, smiled awkwardly and politely at Staffan Capello and said: "Oops! Sorry! I was too impulsive to understand what you meant. My fault, my fault. " On this point, Vox believes that Staffan Capello is not lying, because this is indeed the reality of the Brazilian army. Now, the troops equipped with American weapons are all the troops of the former Brazilian Expeditionary Force, which participated in the European War. The garrison stationed in Brazil is still equipped with the original Mauser 98K that Brazil purchased from Germany before the war started. Of course, with the end of the war, the expeditionary force also seized more German weapons from Europe. Combined with the American equipment supported by the United States, the equipment of the Brazilian army is indeed not uniform now. Staffan Capello saw Vox''s expression and knew that the misunderstanding had been resolved. smiled and shook his head, pointed to the seat and said: "Let''s sit down and talk! Now that the words have been spoken, I no longer hide them. You want arms, I can get them for you, but only German weapons. To be honest, we also want American weapons, but unfortunately we dont have them. Only the main force can equip them. In addition, we are only a garrison regiment, and there are only a hundred guns that can be transferred from the armory. We really can''t provide such a large quantity you want. If I really get you so much ammunition, I will be shot when I turn around. " Vox listened to what Staffan Capello said, and also understood what the other party meant. This can be regarded as being open and honest, and treating each other frankly. What the other party said is obviously the reality. This is really troublesome, a hundred or so guns plus my own inventory is obviously not enough! As for whether it is American or not, he can''t care so much anymore. As long as the goods are available and delivered to the customer in time, he has completed the business. Even if the customer cannot accept the wrong goods afterwards, he can find a way to remedy it. Since the other party has confessed the situation to him, Vox can''t hide it, and said directly: "Brother Capello, in fact, we have already prepared all the weapons in this list. But during the transportation, something went wrong. Caused the cargo to be seized by the Navy. Although a new source of goods has been found, it will take at least a week to ship to Recife. The reason why I came here to trouble you is because I have to deliver the goods to the customer within the agreed delivery time. Time is tight and tasks are heavy, and I am in a hurry and have no choice but to ask you. But now you can only provide a hundred guns, which is nothing but a drop in the bucket. It can''t solve the problem at all! " The candid attitude of both parties made everyone feel a lot more comfortable. It turns out that each has its own difficulties, and we really need to be considerate of each other. Staffan Capello also expressed deep sympathy for Vaux''s situation, and said a little helplessly: "Are you soldiers, since the goods have been seized, please explain to them! The other party should be able to understand! " Vox is not good at telling Staffan Capello the particularity of this order, He could only helplessly shook his head and said: "Alas! Although we are not soldiers, sometimes there are some orders, and there can be no problems. If we fail, we will die too. " Both of them sighed, obviously this business might fail. "Then there is no way, our equipment is all German weapons, and there is really no way to meet your requirements. It seems that I can''t do this business. I suggest you find a solution to the navy that seized the cargo. Logically speaking, this is not their scope of responsibility! Why would they seize your goods? " Staffan Capello is indeed a little disappointed at the moment. It seems that he should not have reported it so early, as the chief of staff reported. Now that the business is in ruins, I might be reprimanded when I go back. At this time, I need a cigarette to refresh myself. I picked up the cigarette on the table again, took out one, and threw it to Vaux. He looked again at the cigarette that fell to the ground just after he lit it. After thinking about it, there are still customers sitting opposite! It is really not suitable to pick it up and continue to smoke, so I can only draw another one for myself and light it. Vox was also very distressed. He took the cigarette and lit it. He took a big puff to calm his emotions, and then said slowly: "I don''t care if it''s a German weapon or not. At worst, I will deliver the goods to others first. If others have opinions, we will explain the situation and refund some of the purchase price!" This is better than not giving anyone a single hair when the time comes! When I said why I was detained, I wanted to scold my mother. It was also bad luck. The ship we were responsible for transporting directly broke into the route of the navy. Of course they have to check. How dare our ship be inspected! As a result, it was delivered to the door. Its not that I havent thought about looking for a way out of their navy, but I have no way out of Natal Naval Base! Brother Capello, is there anyone in the army who knows the Natal Navy? " As an army garrison, Staffan Capello doesn''t know anyone from the Natal Navy. But when Vaux said that German weapons had nothing to do with it, Staffan Capello was moved in his heart. He is the staff officer of the regiment headquarters, and he is a soldier with a brain. After hearing Vox''s words, an idea began to form in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more excited he felt. This might not only make money, but also promote him. Thinking of the excitement, Staffan Capello slapped his thigh, stood up and said: "Vox, you just said that you have found the source of the American machinery on the list, but it is too late, right?" Looking at the excited Staffan Capello on the opposite side, Vaux didn''t react for a while. Nodding mechanically, he said in doubt: "Yes! What''s wrong?" Received an affirmative answer, Staffan Capello laughed out loud, slapped his hands and shouted: "Haha. That''s fine." Vox has a puzzled look on his face, it''s this time, I''m dying of anxiety, and you''re still gloating here. I saw you telling the truth to me just now, and I thought you were a good person, and I could make friends with you. If you can survive this test, I will find you to buy some arms in the future, and let you make a small fortune along with it. But you are still laughing at Lao Tzu here at this time, this is driving me crazy! (end of this chapter) Chapter 308: cross the bridge Chapter 308 Crossing the Bridge Just when Vaux couldn''t help but want to get angry again. Staffan Capello said again: "I thought of a method that can solve your problem, would you like to hear it?" After finishing speaking, he looked at Vaux with a face full of compliments. Vox heard this, so he could still get angry. Snuffed out the cigarette in his hand, stood up in surprise and said: "Really? Brother Capello, what can you do, tell me quickly. As long as I can solve my problem, I will definitely not treat you badly. " Staffan Capello is obviously also very excited, because if this method works, it will definitely kill three birds with one stone. He can win the hemp. Can''t hide the excitement and proudly said: "Look, you''ll be able to ship the gear on your list to Recife in a week, Then, just have a battalion of gear delivered to your client within the agreed time and you''re done. The important thing is that you don''t mind if it''s American or German, right? " Vox was confused by Staffan Capello''s question, and seeing the complacent look on his face, he could only answer expectantly: "Yes, that''s right! Then what is the best way you said? " Seeing Vox on the opposite side still not reacting, Staffan Capello smiled even more happily, Isn''t this the crushing of IQ? Lao Tzu is really a genius. "Hey. If I come forward and convince our team leader, Loan a battalion of equipment for you to deliver to your clients. After your equipment arrives in Recife, return it directly to our garrison regiment. How much can you give us? " Vox was taken aback by Staffan Capello''s words. Isn''t this the bridge that the financial industry often encounters? But if you think about it carefully, this is not a bad idea. At the same time, Vox also understood what a good idea Staffan Capello had. First of all, if you exchange a battalion of German weapons for your own battalion of American weapons, the garrison must have made a profit. Secondly, Staffan Capello was able to equip the garrison regiment with a battalion of beautiful weapons without paying a penny. Needless to say, this credit is definitely not small. Again, you can ask yourself to charge the bridge handling fee. Of course, this handling fee is definitely not something that Staffan Capello can swallow, and it must be shared with the chief officer of the garrison. Once this happened, he would have shared the dirt with the chief officers of the garrison regiment. At that time, he will be the chief official''s absolute confidant, and it will be difficult not to get promoted and make a fortune. Thinking of this, Vaux looked at Staffan Capello differently. What kind of brain is this! Such a genius idea can be thought of by him. If this method can be successful, it can indeed solve the problem that I urgently need to solve. But I exchanged a battalion of American weapons for German weapons, and I must have lost money. Besides, after receiving the goods, the other party finds that it is not a beautiful machine that was negotiated at the beginning, and he may need compensation. Here I have to spend real money again. If you want to get the chief officers of the garrison to agree to do this favor for you, it is impossible for you not to pay enough handling fees to impress people. This again requires real money. The most important thing is that this batch of newly purchased beauty equipment also needs to be purchased with real money. Calculated in this way, I am really at a loss. But before he came here, he was already prepared to bleed heavily, Now its like this, at least he doesnt have to store up an entire battalions ammunition and equipment in his warehouse. The risk is very high. But now it seems that all the benefits have been taken by Staffan Capello, and he feels a little uncomfortable again. He lowered his head and pondered for a while, but he couldn''t think of a better way than this, so he could only bite the bullet and say: "Okay, as long as you can convince the chief of your garrison to agree to your plan, I am willing to pay you 10,000 U.S. dollars." When Staffan Capello heard that Vox was willing to pay $10,000, his heart skipped a beat. This is not a small amount of money. If he only relies on the army''s salary, he will earn less than ten thousand dollars in ten years. But the money is not his alone, he still needs to get through the relationship with the garrison regiment. Ten thousand dollars is definitely not enough for the head of the regiment, the chief of staff, the person in charge of logistics, etc.! After taking a deep breath, Staffan Capello forced himself to calm down and said: "Ten thousand dollars is not enough. To make this happen, I need to open up too many joints." Vox didn''t think that the first offer would be accepted by the other party, but now is the time to talk about money, which is the time to hurt feelings. He must find a way to lower the price, otherwise he will be slaughtered by the other party. Isnt $10,000 enough? This is a free replacement for a battalion of beautiful equipment for you. The benefits here alone are enough to convince your chief! " Although Staffan Capello is not a businessman, he also understands that these are means of bargaining. Now the other party is begging me, and I have the absolute initiative. There is no need to be afraid that the other party will be scared away by yourself. After thinking for a while, the lion opened his mouth and said: "50,000 dollars, if you give 50,000 dollars, I promise to convince the chief of the garrison." Vox didn''t expect the other party''s appetite to be so big, so he was shocked. hurriedly said: "Brother Capello, you sold me, and I don''t have $50,000 to give you! All my money is used to purchase arms. If I give you 50,000 US dollars, I wont be able to raise all the money to buy arms. For the sake of my father-in-law, can you help me? I assure you, after this business is successful, can we purchase small batches of arms directly from you? Guaranteed to make you a lot of money. " Staffan Capello looked at Vox seriously, as if he wanted to see from his face whether what he said was true or not. After watching for a long time, I didn''t find anything unusual. It is not unreasonable to think about what the other party said. If you really purchase small batches of arms from yourself in the future, you can turn a one-time sale into a long-term business. A long-term and stable business can allow him to maintain a long-term influence in front of the chief, which is more conducive to his development. Gritting his teeth, Staffan Capello stared at Vaux and said: "Tell me! How much you can give, if it''s too low, I can''t convince the officers. Everyone is happy for nothing. So, I hope you can show your sincerity. " Vox also understands that if it is really too low, this plan may fail, and if this is the case, he will definitely not be able to deliver on time. What is waiting for me is not the loss of money. "Brother Capello, thank you for helping me, I am not a person who would risk my life for money. Lets do this, Ill hand over 28,000 dollars to you, I dont care how much it costs you to convince your garrison. Any extra is yours. As long as you help me get through this difficulty, we will be brothers in the future, I will purchase from you all the small batches of ammunition needs, how about it? " Hearing Vaux''s quotation, Staffan Capello was overjoyed. He used a battalion of American equipment as a bait to persuade the garrison to agree to his plan. He was sure to get the commander of the regiment within 20,000 US dollars. In this way, he can get benefits of more than 8,000 US dollars and a stable business channel. After lowering his head and thinking for a while, Staffan Capello made up his mind and said: "Okay, I will go to convince the officers of the garrison tonight. In order to avoid risks, our people must see a battalion of American equipment before letting you take our equipment away. " After all, Staffan Capello and Vaux are not familiar with each other. Although both of them will have a close relationship with Vaux''s father-in-law, it is impossible for Staffan Capello to be unprepared for such a big matter. Vox was taken aback for a moment when he heard this, and then quickly realized it. After thinking about it, he didn''t refuse, and nodded directly: "Yes, if your people agree, you can receive the goods directly in Rio de Janeiro. You are responsible for the transportation. How about saving me the shipping fee? " Seeing Vox readily agree, Staffan Capello understood that this should not be a trap. directly got up and said: "It''s easy to talk about the freight, I''m going to visit my chief now. I will give you an accurate answer tomorrow morning. " Upon hearing this, Vaux laughed and stepped forward to hug Staffan Capello tightly: "Okay, good brother! I''ll go back and prepare the money now. Waiting for your good news tomorrow! " Since the matter has been negotiated, of course everyone is preparing separately. Vox directly took his wife and children home, and after calling Jerry who had already left for Rio de Janeiro, he finally felt relieved. What Vox didn''t know was that when their family visited Staffan Capello''s family. In the morning, someone knocked on the door of the house of Maroon Big Wave, where he was enjoying a massage. "Who is it?" A lazy and beautiful female voice came from the room. A strong man wearing a top hat swept across the street vigilantly, and said in a low voice: "Miss Luna, this is Craig, and the boss asked me to fetch something." "It''s a big night, is there anything I can''t pick up tomorrow? Really" The lazy female voice murmured reluctantly. But still came to the gate and opened the door. The big man who had been standing at the door squeezed in through the gap when the door just opened. The girl who was opening the door screamed in fright. Before the girl could react, her mouth was already covered by the rough hand, and she couldn''t make any sound. The door was quickly shut tightly. Under the dim light in the room, a stout figure tightly hugged the curvaceous maroon big wave in a nightdress from behind. The brawny man breathed greedily, and bursts of fragrance emanated from the chestnut big wave. "Miss Luna, you are such a seductive little elf!" Holded tightly, the maroon big wave struggling desperately couldn''t make any sound at all. "Wooooooh." The strong man ignored the struggle of the girl in his arms, picked her up and dragged her into the inner room. The big maroon wave couldn''t make a sound, but his feet kept struggling and kicking around. Kicked off the slippers on his feet and hit the furniture in the room, making a bang sound. But this did not scare the strong man, but made the strong man even more excited. "Haha Miss Luna, you don''t have to struggle. No one will come to rescue you tonight, the boss is already devastated. I don''t have time to take care of you. You are mine tonight, serve me comfortably, and I promise not to hurt you. From now on, when the boss is away, I will satisfy you, okay? Ha ha" The strong man is obviously very familiar with the layout of the room. After pushing open two doors in a row, he came directly to a bedroom. Holding the girl in her arms, she fell directly on the bed, Both of them were lying on their stomachs facing the bed, and the strong man''s body was firmly pressed against the chestnut big wave. Covered the girl''s mouth and nose with his left hand to prevent him from making a sound. The right hand has reached into the girl''s nightdress, and the girl can feel the warmth and aggression from the hand that has reached into her clothes. began to struggle desperately. But in the end, the strength of a girl is definitely not as strong as that of a strong man, and she cannot break free from the invasion of the palm of a strong man. (end of this chapter) Chapter 309: Chapter 309 As time passed, the strong man felt that the girl''s resistance was getting smaller and smaller, and her breathing became more and more rapid. The face of the strong man began to show a happy expression about to succeed. Closed his mouth to the ear of Big Maroon Wave and panted heavily: "What''s the matter, Luna also feels very happy, right? I let you go, you are not allowed to call, you know? If you dare to bark, I will kill you! " Luna under her body no longer struggled as if she had resigned herself to her fate. The strong man slowly let go of the hand covering Luna''s mouth, and saw that Luna under him didn''t yell, and a lewd smile leaked from his lewd face. "That''s right! Miss Luna is so young and attractive, it''s a pity to underestimate that old fellow Vox. Thinking that young and strong people like me can make you happy, dont you? " I dont know if Luna really accepted her fate, or if she was amused by this strong man named Craig. Did not resist, but said softly in an extremely charming tone: "Craig, aren''t you afraid that your boss will kill you if he finds out?" Luna''s performance made Clegg even more happy. Not only did he not resist, but he also took the initiative to talk to himself. It seems that after drinking two glasses of wine today, it is really the right time to come here with courage. Such an alluring and peerless stunner, you can taste it today, and maybe you can taste it every day in the future. "Hey, didn''t I tell you? The old man is in a state of desperation now, let''s talk about it after he survives this test! You little goblin, you play tricks in front of Lao Tzu every day. Are you trying to lure me on purpose? " Seeing this scene, Craig''s breathing became even heavier. Reach out and turn the **** the bed over so that she faces him. But when he saw the seductive look of the **** the bed biting her lip, he couldn''t hold back the heat all over his body anymore. is about to lean down and taste this flower. But Luna continued to say softly: "Oh! So you know who the owner is?" Clegg froze suddenly. It seems that she didn''t hear what Luna said just now, and asked uncertainly: "what did you just say?" Seeing Craig''s expression as if he had seen a ghost. Luna didn''t care, she stretched out her right index finger without realizing it, and gently slid down Craig''s face, and when it slid across Clegg''s chest, she didn''t forget to draw a circle with her hand. Continue to say in an extremely charming tone: "So, you know who paid for this batch of arms, right?" At this moment, Craig felt the hairs all over his body stand on end, although he didn''t quite understand what was going on, However, his hand had involuntarily touched his lower back. Where was his pistol, but he couldn''t find anything. At this time, Clegg seemed to have dated a beautiful woman. He was just about to do something, but found that the other party wanted to cut his waist. The fear in his heart made him take two steps back involuntarily, resisting the urge to turn around and run, looking at the girl in front of him. At this moment, Miss Luna, who has big wavy chestnut hair, is more charming than what he usually sees. But Craig couldn''t even raise even a trace of evil thoughts. Instead, his whole body was cold, and he shivered involuntarily. He wanted to be strong and said a few threatening words, making Miss Luna, who looked very strange, let him go. But when he saw the pistol that was pressed on the bed by Luna''s left hand. He had to suppress his urge to speak. It turned out that just when he thought that Luna had given up resistance and started to enjoy, the pistol he stuck in his back had unknowingly fallen into Luna''s hands. Luna followed his line of sight and saw the pistol held down by her left hand. The smile on the mouth became more charming, and said with a coquettish smile: "Ah! Is this your pistol? Why is it here?" As he spoke, he grabbed the pistol and aimed it at Clegg, saying: "I''d better give it back to you!" Clegg, who was pointed at by the gun, began to sweat coldly on his forehead, and shook his head again and again: "Miss Luna was joking, since you like it, I will give it to you." My heart is already full of scolding, will you point the gun at me? Think of me as a fool! I''ll be thankful if you don''t just shoot me. Things happened so quickly, until now he is still a little dazed, not understanding what happened. Why does Miss Luna, who has always been soft and lovely, seem to be a different person. He just wants to escape from this place now, escape from Recife, and never come back again. This place is too dangerous. But before he made any action, There was soft applause from behind the door that he had knocked open earlier. The high-fives of "slaps" were unhurried, but they were very clear in the dark room. Clegg is completely confused at this moment, and doesn''t understand what''s going on now. It''s not that the boss is waiting for me here on purpose! Is this a trap? It''s over, it''s dead. Just as Clegg was still complaining about himself, a steady voice came from the door. "Miss Luna, your performance is amazing, I don''t know if you are interested in joining our Intelligence Bureau. For such an outstanding talent like you, I can personally recommend it to the chief. " Hearing the voice outside the door, Miss Luna no longer had the charming and charming expression just now. Instead, she straightened her nightgown, stood up from the bed with a serious face, and stood against the wall. "Sir, you''re flattering me. I know you''re here, so I dare to be so presumptuous." And Craig was shocked when he heard the word intelligence agency. He has never heard of this unit. The Brazilian Intelligence Agency has just started in this era. It is just an intelligence agency of the army. Outsiders don''t even know the existence of this agency. But this does not prevent him from determining the identity of the other party. After all, it must be a state institution with such a name, and it cannot be a kitten or a puppy. But the speaker, as if he didn''t notice Clegg at all, continued to chat with Miss Luna: "Miss Luna, I''m serious, what you just did, Enough to be called amazing. When we first met two days ago, we didnt realize that you still have such a talent. It''s a pity not to be an intelligence officer. My proposal, you can seriously consider it, if you are interested, you can come to me at any time. Don''t worry, our treatment is very good. " Luna obviously didn''t expect that the other party would raise such an idea at this time. He is just a woman who only went to elementary school. A public office like the other party is not something she can covet. However, today the other party''s chief actually threw an olive branch at her. It would be a lie to say that she was not moved, but she still hasn''t figured out what this so-called intelligence agency does! Four days ago at night, this group of people broke into his house involuntarily. After setting up his home, he was interrogated again. If the other party hadn''t produced a document to prove the other party''s identity, Luna would have thought that the other party was Vox''s enemy. But the professional level of the other party is obviously not the quality that gangsters can possess. Especially when the other party took out a file to check her identity, Luna felt cold all over. In front of this group of people, I have no secrets at all. Many secrets that he has never mentioned to others are clearly grasped by the other party, which makes him feel creepy. Fortunately, the other party didn''t want to arrest him, but just asked him to cooperate with them in investigating the person behind Vaux. She told the other party everything she knew. But the other party just shook his head and told her that they knew what she said. What they want to know now is who paid for the recent shipment of arms by Vox to Fernando de Noronha. These are obviously not things she can know. After confirming that she was indeed unable to provide the corresponding information, the other party did not do anything to him, but threatened him and released him. But the other party also told her clearly that listening devices have been installed in her home now. Nothing they said at home could escape their ears. This high-tech method completely refreshed her cognition. made him both nervous and curious. So, these days when Vox came to her, she seldom spoke. Because she was worried that she might say the wrong thing. Unexpectedly, something unexpected happened today. When Clegg covered her mouth and nose at first, she was really terrified. But when she remembered that her home had already been monitored, she took advantage of the opportunity of struggling, kicked her shoes off and made a strange noise, and called for help from the monitoring personnel. She knew that the other party was from a government department, and she would never stand by and watch herself being insulted without coming forward to rescue her. So, she is acting in everything that follows. I have to say that he is really talented in acting. Tricked Craig, who had a brain on his brain, around so much that he didn''t even know that the pistol was taken away by him. If she hadn''t been too impatient and frightened Craig awake by going straight to the point, maybe she would have had a chance to catch Craig''s words. This is also the reason why the chief of the Intelligence Bureau wanted to recruit her. After listening to the other party''s words, Luna pondered for a while before saying: "Thank you for your trust, sir, I will seriously consider it." After receiving Luna''s reply, the staff of the Intelligence Bureau seemed very happy, and laughed loudly: "Hahaha, I hope to hear good news." After finishing speaking, he turned his head and looked at Clegg, who was standing aside, looking very disturbed, and said: "You are one of Vox''s most trusted bodyguards, Craig, right? Originally, we wanted to talk to you alone, but unfortunately we never had the chance. I didn''t expect you to deliver it to your door today! Hehe, please come with us! " After finishing speaking, he waved his hands behind him. Two tall figures walked out from behind the door, rushed up and tied Clegg tightly. Clegg didn''t resist the whole time, not because he didn''t want to resist. Instead, he knew very well in his heart that if he fell down today, there would be no chance of escape. The opponent is not a gangster, but a powerful department of the government, and he has no chance to resist at all. More importantly, what I did today, I can''t have the opportunity to ask the gang for help. Another reason is that he knows that since he is a government department, he will not kill himself directly for no reason. I am just a bodyguard, and the things I commit will not be fatal. The other party''s purpose of arresting him is obviously for the arms delivered by Vox this time. This shows that he still has value to use. While Clegg was in a trance, he was put on a hood and pushed out of the room. I dont know how far I have walked, and Clegg cant feel the specific distance, but he didnt take a car or other means of transportation. It should be somewhere on Le Mans Avenue again. (end of this chapter) ~: been audited is reviewed Dear readers, Chapter 309 has been shut down in a dark room. Brother, take the time to revise it and resubmit it for review. Please wait patiently! Sorry for the inconvenience caused to everyone! (end of this chapter) Chapter 310: water boarding Chapter 310 Waterboarding When Clegg opened his eyes again, he may have adapted to the darkness while being covered by the hood. Seeing the light suddenly, he was so shaken that he couldn''t open his eyes. It took a while to get used to it. Slightly squinting his eyes through the strong light, he saw a desk opposite, and two men in suits and leather shoes sat behind the desk. Facing him on the right is a middle-aged white man in his late twenties, sitting upright, with a hooked nose most conspicuous. Clegg could feel a powerful aura from the opponent. This is a type he has never come into contact with in Recife. He doesn''t know how to describe it in words, but his intuition tells him that he can''t afford to mess with such a person. Beside him is a relatively young young man with wheat-colored skin, in his early twenties, and looks a bit bookish. There is a notepad spread out on the desktop, obviously planning to record something. With just one glance, he was able to confirm that this was someone from a government department, not some gangster. Because gangsters don''t have such a temperament. So before the other party could speak, he begged for mercy first: "Sir, I''m just a bodyguard, I really don''t know the inside story of the arms deal!" "Hehe. No way! Mr. Clegg, you are not a simple bodyguard! As far as we know, you are Vaux''s nephew! His trust in you is more than others! I just dont know, if he knew that his nephew was attacking his lover, how would he treat him! " The aquiline nose on the opposite side smiled unhurriedly. Clegg was shocked when he heard what the other person said. There were absolutely no more than five people in the gang who knew about his relationship with Vaux. These people are all old brothers who started with Vox, and it is impossible to betray their boss easily. It seems that the energy of these people on the opposite side is much stronger than that of the police. "What I said is true, I''m really just a bodyguard! I have never been involved in gang business. Really, the arms business is all in charge of Jerry. You guys go ask Jerry! " Clegg is not a tough person, and a person who can do this kind of thing to his uncle''s lover is obviously not a loyal person. Before the interrogators used any means, he had already begun to explain the problem. The hooked nose on the opposite side was not satisfied with his answer, and said with a sneer: "It seems you don''t know who we are, nor how we do things. I can popularize it for you. We are an intelligence agency affiliated to the Ministry of National Defense. We are mainly responsible for domestic counterintelligence operations, targeting foreign hostile forces and intelligence agencies. We are not the police. People caught by us can be executed directly without trial. What''s more important is our torture method against the enemy, which is somewhat cruel and may make your life worse than death. If you want to experience it, we are more than happy to let you experience it. " It turned out that Clegg had never heard of this department, but when he heard the other party say that they could execute without trial, he felt his calves tremble a little. He can be Vox''s bodyguard, not because he is a tough guy, but because he is trustworthy and has a good marksmanship. But now here, these two advantages obviously do him no favors. So far, the two people sitting across from each other haven''t started to ask him any questions, but he is already a little frightened. I don''t know what to confess, after all, he really doesn''t know who the boss of this batch of arms is. Just when he was still thinking about what to say. The hooked nose on the opposite side didn''t want to waste time, they only had one night, and if Clegg, who was Vaux''s bodyguard, couldn''t appear by Vaux''s side tomorrow morning, it might arouse the other party''s vigilance. Therefore, it is impossible for me and Clegg to slowly ink, nor can I use torture methods that will leave obvious trauma to the other party. "It seems that Mr. Clegg really wants to experience it, our means. Come here, treat Mr. Clegg well. " Craig hasn''t realized what''s going on! It felt like two people appeared behind him, and they lifted him up unceremoniously. Clegg, who was already handcuffed, couldn''t resist at all. He could only beg for mercy: "Don''t! Sir, misunderstood, misunderstood! Please spare me! I really don''t know who the buyer of this batch of arms is! Please. " But the people in the room didn''t seem to hear anything. Two strong men directly tied him to a bench, his hands and feet were tightly bound, and he couldn''t break free at all. Clegg was very panicked and kept begging for mercy, but no one paid any attention to him. In fact, everyone knows that he can''t survive the sentence, but this is a blow. Don''t let him experience despair, and he may not easily cooperate with them. Craig on the bench couldn''t move at all, as pitiful and helpless as a lamb waiting to be slaughtered. His head was clamped by his arms that were raised above his head, unable to move, and he could only see some shaking lights on the top of the house. Soon, he felt that the bench he was lying on had been raised, but it only raised his legs, making him feel as if his head was lowered and his feet were higher. He knew that the punishment hadn''t officially started yet, but he felt that his bladder was almost full. In the entire room, apart from his begging for mercy, there were only two executioners walking in an orderly manner, and soon he heard the dull sound of a bucket being placed on the ground next to him. Although he didn''t know what he was about to experience, the sound of the bucket touching the ground already made his heart tremble. He started to tremble involuntarily. Even the begging sound was trembling involuntarily. Finally, a figure appeared in his sight. This person stood against the light, and he couldn''t see the other person''s appearance clearly because of the light. But the cold eyes in the dark made him shiver involuntarily. This person didn''t talk nonsense with him, and directly covered his face with a piece of mulberry paper. In an instant, Craig could no longer see anything clearly, which made his body tremble even more. He stopped begging for mercy, and tried to blow the mulberry paper off his face. But just after the paper was moved, there was water flowing down from above. Clegg, who was blowing, was choked directly. Then, I can no longer breathe. The bound body was struggling constantly, and the bench was swaying from side to side. Craig, in a panic, felt that he was about to die. As long as the breath enters the trachea, it is all water. If you want to hold your breath, the water will continuously flow into your lungs along your nostrils. At this moment, he couldn''t think at all, he could only move his body instinctively to break free. He was bound tightly, and he couldn''t break free at all. I don''t know how long it took, maybe a dozen seconds, maybe a dozen minutes. The water stopped and the paper was taken from his face. Craig raised his head desperately, coughing out the water that had choked into his airway. Not far away, the voice of the hooked nose came from afar: "Mr. Clegg, shall we continue?" This voice was like the whisper of a demon, but Clegg seemed to be grasping at straws. Because someone finally responded to him, he was no longer blindly begging for mercy. Wanted to open his mouth to respond to the other party, but the airway and throat were full of water, so he couldn''t make a sound at all, and could only cough violently. Fortunately, the other party is very patient at this time. Craig finally took a breath, and hurriedly said: "No, sir, please. Whatever you want to know, I will tell you all. Please. If I do this again, I will die. " Hooked nose smiled coldly and said: "Really? Then please tell us who the buyer of this batch of arms is." Hearing this question, Clegg''s breathing was stagnant. He really didn''t know this question! He is not a tough guy, and he didn''t really want to try the punishment before answering. He really doesn''t know. However, at this time, it is obviously impossible to answer that I don''t know. Never dare to make up lies to deceive the other party. I can only seriously recall the experiences of these days. He has been with Vaux all the time. Since when did the other party receive this business? Slowly, he remembered the day''s itinerary. hurriedly opened the mouth and said: "I remembered. About half a month ago, the boss went to a restaurant for an appointment, and started preparing the goods after returning. That''s right, it was that time. Yes. But I really haven''t seen who the other party is! The boss did not allow us to enter the box. " The hooked-nosed man looked at Clegg, who was tied to the stool and raised his head desperately, breathing fresh air while seriously thinking about it. There is no expression on his face. Just glanced at the notes that the young man beside him was making in his notebook, and after he finished writing, he asked: "Specific time, which restaurant?" Clegg thought about it carefully, but fortunately, not long after, under this life-threatening pressure, he immediately recalled the scene at that time. "June 5th, yes, the night of June 5th. Tuya Restaurant on Gert Street. That''s right, Tuya Restaurant. The third private room on the right hand side on the second floor of the restaurant. " While thinking about it, he kept repeating. His tone was not very sure at the beginning, but he became very firm afterward. The man with the hooked nose raised his hand, motioning for Clegg to untie him. The two people in charge of the execution stepped forward again and untied Clegg from the bench. Clegg couldn''t see the movement of the hooked nose, but felt the two people in charge of the execution step forward, trembling all over, wanting to continue begging for mercy. When he found that the other party started to untie him, he let out a long sigh of relief. It seems that today''s fate is saved. The voice of the hooked nose without any emotion came again. "Who made the appointment?" "I don''t know exactly who it is, it seems that the boss answered a phone call." "When did you answer the phone?" "Afternoon. Three o''clock in the afternoon, it seems to be around three o''clock in the afternoon." Finally, Craig was completely unbound and brought back to the previous seat. At this time, even though he was soaked, his body was still trembling involuntarily. But I finally found a sense of security. Now he doesn''t dare to think about anything, he just wants to recall all the circumstances of that day, so as to save himself from being tortured. "Did you meet anyone else outside the box?" Hooked Nose now believes that Craig really doesn''t know who the other party is. However, he had to analyze what Clegg saw at the time to see if he could find any clues. "Other people? I don''t seem to have met any other people, they are all guests who are eating in the restaurant. what! By the way, I remembered. I seemed to see the police chiefs car that day, also parked in front of the restaurant. That car was still there when we left. " The eyes of the hooked nose flashed brightly, and he was overjoyed. Didn''t he find a clue? "Does Vaux usually contact the chief of police?" Clegg said without hesitation: "The boss is relying on his father-in-law to get to where he is today, and his father-in-law is the original deputy police chief. The current chief of police turned out to be an old subordinate of his father-in-law. Therefore, the old assembly often contacts him. also often sends money to the police chief. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 311: undercover Chapter 311 Undercover After listening to Clegg''s words, the hooked nose did not continue to ask questions, but began to tap rhythmically on the table with its fingers. He''s not interested in Vox bribing the chief of police. If it is said that the chief of police buys arms from Vaux, it should be unlikely. Then why did Vox start preparing the ammunition after meeting the Chief of Police? Its not that the bodyguard Clegg doesnt know about his relationship with the chief of police. Why didnt the bodyguard know who he was meeting with during this meeting? Clegg, who was sitting opposite, saw that the hooked nose stopped asking questions, and his heart was raised again. Now he is very afraid that the information he provided is worthless, and he will be punished again. This forced him to use his subjective initiative to continue recalling the experiences of these days to see if there were any other clues. Before he could think of anything, the hooked-nosed man had already started asking questions again. "Are you sure, only Vaux and the police chief were in the box that day?" Craig was stunned for a moment. He hadn''t thought about this question. Since the other party asked him now, he could only recall the situation that day again. Soon his heart moved, and he quickly said: When Vasek and I were sitting in the hall waiting for the boss that day, we saw that there seemed to be two other people sitting outside, Eyes still looked at the boss''s box from time to time. At that time, Vasek also said that the other party might be trying to get out of the way, and wanted to go around. But I thought that this is my own territory, one thing more is worse than one thing less, so there is no past. Thinking about it now, those two people may also be the same bodyguards as us. " "You mean, there are other people in the box, right?" Clegg is not sure about this kind of thing, he can only say with some hesitation: "Probably, I''m not sure." Hooked nose smiled and said: "Very well, you don''t have to be nervous, if you can cooperate with our investigation, we won''t hurt you. If your answer satisfies me, you can go home early tomorrow morning. " When Clegg heard this, his heart was ecstatic, and the trembling of his body seemed to have decreased a lot. "Really? Thank you sir! Thank you sir! I will fully cooperate. " Hooked nose nodded with a smile, and continued to ask: "Do you remember what those two people looked like? Have you seen them anywhere else?" Clegg thought about it carefully before saying: "I remember their appearance, and I should be able to recognize them when I see them again. They are not from Recife, I have never seen them in Recife. Besides, they are definitely not gang members. " "Oh! You don''t think they''re gangsters? Why?" "It feels like they don''t have that smell on them, it''s the smell of us people." Although Clegg didn''t understand what he said, the man with the hooked nose understood what he meant. "So what do you think they are like?" Clegg shivered, shrank his neck, recalled it carefully for a while, and then said in an uncertain tone: "I feel that they are a bit like the bodyguards of those big shots. Its like those people who stand beside Mr. Mayor when Mr. Mayor is running for election. " Hearing this, the aquiline-nosed man stared. It seems that this matter is not simple! Now he has deduced a lot from Clegg''s words. Obviously, this business was introduced to Vaux through the chief of police. The person who bought this batch of arms is obviously a bigger figure than the chief of police. However, as to who this character is, it may be necessary to investigate further. Today''s harvest is not small. He raised his head and glanced at Clegg, who was drenched and trembling. smiled and said: "Okay! We''ll stop here today, you go back and change your clothes and have a good rest. Tomorrow, I will continue to work by Vox''s side. You know what we want to know, so I hope that from now on, you will pay close attention to Vox''s every move. If you can provide useful clues, we can give you appropriate rewards. do you understand? " Craig couldn''t believe his ears, the other party wanted to let him go. Looking at the hooked nose in disbelief, he said tremblingly: "Sir, are you serious? I. I don''t have to die, do I? " Hooked nose smiled and nodded: "As I said, we are an intelligence agency directly under the Ministry of National Defense, and our main job is counterintelligence. What I want to track down is the guy who purchased arms from Vox. Now we suspect that he wants to use this batch of arms to carry out anti-government activities. Now that you''re not involved, we certainly won''t make it hard for you. But as a Brazilian citizen, you have an obligation to help us find this dangerous person. do you understand? " Hearing what the man with the hooked nose said, Craig cursed in his heart, I believe you are the devil. Just now you didnt say that I am a Brazilian citizen. If I didn''t tell the truth, I should have been killed by you by now! But the other party''s meaning is also very clear, that is, to let himself be an undercover agent next to Vaux. Monitor Vox''s every move so that they can find the person who purchased arms from Vox. As for refusing the other party''s request, Clegg didn''t dare to have such an idea at all. If you really dare to reject the other party, you will probably become a missing person for no reason! What''s more, even if he doesn''t monitor Vaux, will the other party have no one else to monitor? Think about Luna, and think about the people around Vox, who can withstand such torture? Since you know you can''t beat the opponent, of course you have to consciously join the opponent! If someone asks that Vox is his uncle, won''t his conscience hurt if he betrays him? I will definitely spit on him. According to this logic, isn''t Luna my aunt? Have you seen that I am being polite? well! Women are such a curse! If it wasn''t for Aunt Luna, she wouldn''t have been arrested, let alone tortured. I hate it when I think about it. It''s not that she hates Luna, but that she hates herself for not living up to expectations. Now Luna is a poisonous snake in Clegg''s eyes. It looks so attractive, but the other party is very deadly. He has been frightened by Luna to some shadows in his heart. When I think of Luna''s appearance, it is the appearance of the other party smiling at me with a charming face, but holding a pistol in her hand. This is really scary. "Understand, understand! Please rest assured, sir! I will keep an eye on Vaux and find out the spy. " Craig had a flattering face, completely unable to see any viciousness that gangsters should have. Hooked Nose is obviously familiar with this situation, and said with an indifferent expression: "Catching spies is our job, you just need to observe with your eyes and listen with your ears. It''s our job to do it, understand? " "Okay, okay, just listen and watch, don''t do anything. Then how should I notify you if I find out? " Clegg''s self-consciousness is beyond the imagination of the hooked nose. If he doesn''t already know that this guy is a punk. Hooked Nose is about to start to wonder if the other party wants to spy on information. Scrutinized Clegg a few times to confirm that the other party did not want to know the office location of the Intelligence Bureau personnel. nodded, his eyes were cold, and he said in a casual tone: "If you find anything, you can tell Miss Luna. She''ll find a way to let us know. " Hearing that, Craig felt his heart tremble when he wanted to tell Luna the information. Just now he thought that he would stay away from Luna in the future! I didn''t expect that I couldn''t hide! Hooked Nose also noticed Clegg''s hesitation, and said in a bad tone: "Why don''t you want to? We can also come to you." Clegg dared to let these murderous gods come to his door, and then he would report the situation badly and continue the interrogation. "no no, Please rest assured, sir, I will report all the situation to Miss Luna in time. " Hooked nose was noncommittal, and gestured to the two behind Clegg. Clegg was put on a hood again and taken out. This time, Clegg is rare and not afraid. He is a smart person. Knowing that the other party is going to release himself. But when the two helped him up, he realized that he was a little unsteady at this moment, his whole body was soaked, and his body was still trembling involuntarily. The most embarrassing thing is that he felt his crotch, and he didn''t know when it was soaked. But at this time, he didn''t care about these things anymore. Being able to regain his freedom was the greatest happiness for him. This time he was stuffed into a car and drove around. When he opened his eyes, he had already returned to his door. And he was sitting in the window behind the driver''s seat of the car, and there were two other people in the car, one was in charge of driving, and the other was sitting on his right hand, holding a black cloth hood in his hand. Both of them were looking at themselves with unkind eyes. He didn''t feel that the other party was thinking of him, so he sent him to the door of the house on purpose. He believed that this was a warning to him. We know where your home is, and we also know the situation in your home. Dont think about running away. You must know that he has never been interrogated about his family situation. But the other party was like this, and drove the car directly to his door. From this, it can be seen that the other party''s statement that he wanted to see himself a long time ago was not a lie. Clegg smiled flatteringly at the two indifferent-looking men in suits who didn''t say a word, and said: "Thank you, thank you two officers for sending me off. Would you like to have a cup of coffee at home? " Neither of them spoke, but the man in the suit sitting next to him reached over him and opened the car door on his side. Craig understands this is getting him out of the car. He could only smile flatteringly at the two of them and get out of the car. As soon as I got out of the car, I felt something stuffed into my pocket. I touched it with my hand, it was a pistol, it seemed that it was the pistol I was carrying and was taken away by Luna. At this time, when he touched the pistol again, he really had mixed feelings in his heart. It turned out that he simply thought that if he had a gun in his hand and was good at marksmanship, he could have a place in the gang. But today''s experience made him fully understand that having a gun is nothing special. Looking up at his home, he felt a sense of happiness that he had never experienced before. It turns out that home is so warm and healing. Forcibly suppressing the involuntary trembling of his body, Craig ignored the car parked behind him and strode into his home. When he returned home, he didn''t disturb anyone in the family. After all, the night is already very dark now. If you wake up your family and see such a distressed look, you will be ashamed to see others. But when he walked back to the room and wanted to take a bath and sleep, he shuddered involuntarily when he looked at the water in the tub. It seems that today''s experience has indeed brought an indelible impact on his life. The car outside the house did not leave until it was confirmed that the lights in his room were on. This night, someone let go of the big rock in their hearts and lived very peacefully. But some people live a very long time, and even leave a lifetime of psychological shadow. (end of this chapter) Chapter 312: show up Chapter 312 Appearance The next day, early morning. Vox was awakened by the harsh ringing of the phone. In a daze, he reached out and grabbed the phone by the bed. "Hello! I''m Vaux." Not knowing what was said on the phone, Vaux, who was still in a daze, bounced off the bed instantly as if he had been shocked by an electric shock. "what?" "Okay, okay, I''ll be right over!" Mrs. Vox next to her got up sleepily and asked: "It''s early in the morning, what''s wrong?" Vox who put down the phone did not immediately return to Mrs. Vox''s question, but hung up the phone a little nervously. casually coped: "It''s okay, you go to sleep!" Many things about Vaux would not be shared with Mrs. Vaux, so Mrs. Vaux got up as if she was used to it and said: "Then I''ll go see if the children are awake." After speaking, he got up and left directly. Vox, who put down the phone, sat on the bed with cold sweat on his nose, as if he had just woken up from a nightmare. After getting out of bed, you paced back and forth in the room. After turning around twice, as if you had made up your mind, you picked up the phone and made a call. "Brother Capello, is the matter settled?" "What? Tomorrow?" "Not tomorrow, I will see the goods at noon at the latest." "I know you''re having trouble. Help!" "I''ll add money!" "Thirty-five thousand dollars, send it to you now." After finishing the phone call, Vaux sat down on the bed as if his strength had been taken away from him. Looking out the window with blank eyes. It took a long time for two children to play and ran into the room before waking him up from his daze. After interacting with the two children, he said to Mrs. Vaux: "I''m not going to have breakfast at home today, you can take your child to eat!" Mrs. Vaux saw that Vaux''s mood was wrong, and stepped forward to ask: "What''s the matter, didn''t you say it was resolved last night? Have you encountered any problems again? " Vox barely let out a smile, gave his wife a hug, and said: "It''s okay, I will take care of it, you stay at home and take care of the children. I want to go out. " Vox got up to wash up, and put on a decent suit for a rare occasion. When he walked to the door, the bodyguards with him were already waiting at the door. Seeing the crowd frolicking at the door, Vaux didn''t say much. Instead, he took a deep breath to calm himself down. "Boss, Boss!" Everyone nodded and said hello when they saw the boss coming out. The driver and bodyguard Vasek even stepped forward to compliment him: "Boss, you look really handsome today." Vox glanced at the other party, and nodded indifferently: "Um!" Usually, in order to show his closeness to the brothers, Vaux would often joke with everyone and tell foolish jokes. But today''s attitude made Vasek instantly understand his boss''s mood today. Shut up quickly, ran directly to his main driver''s seat and sat down, ready to drive with peace of mind. Clegg stood by the co-pilot''s door with dark circles under his eyes, watching all this quietly. After Vaux approached, he opened the door as usual and greeted Vaux into the car. After Vaux got into the car and sat down, he gently closed the door. After taking a look at Vaux''s house, he didn''t see anything special before getting into the co-pilot seat. Vaux, who was sitting in the car, didn''t speak. Vasek knew that the boss was in a bad mood today, so he didn''t dare to ask the boss where he was going. The atmosphere in the car was a little dull for a while. Vasek glanced at Clegg beside him, wanting to ask Clegg to ask the boss. It can be found that Clegg''s state today is obviously not normal, and he doesn''t look too awake. Unable to bear this atmosphere, Vasek could only bite the bullet and coughed twice: "Boss, where are we going?" Voxs face has been a little gloomy since he got into the car. After hearing what Vasek said, he looked up at the road outside the car, and then at Vasek. said in a deep voice: "Go to the Gradia Hotel opposite the train station." Hearing that Vaux finally announced the place name, Vasek heaved a long sigh of relief. nodded quickly and said: "Okay, boss, let''s go now." After speaking, he started to drive away. Clegg, who was sitting in the co-pilot seat, was taken aback when he heard the address. Its so early in the morning, why are you going to this hotel? It turns out that I have never patronized this hotel. However, he could also see that Vox was in a bad mood, and it was impossible for him to touch this bad luck. As long as you get to the place, it will be clear. All the way silent, after about half an hour''s drive, the convoy arrived at the Gradia Hotel opposite the train station. This is a luxury hotel with five floors. This three-car convoy is still very conspicuous when parked in front of the hotel. After all, in this era, those who can have a convoy accompanying them must be big shots. Just when the doorman wanted to step forward and pull the car door. A group of vicious gangsters pushed the door and got out of the car. The guests at the entrance of the hotel were startled, and they quickly avoided to avoid conflicts with them. Craig, waited until the people in the front and rear cars got out of the car and there was no one around, then opened the passenger door and got out of the car, and took a look at the surrounding environment. After confirming that there was no abnormality, he opened the rear door and let Vaux get out of the car. Just by looking at this scene, one knows that there must be a gang boss coming. As for whether this pomp has any actual combat effectiveness, it is hard to say. But as the largest gang in Recife, it is impossible for Vaux to keep a low profile. Looked at the frightened crowd around him, and then at the younger brothers around him. Vox thought about what happened today, and said to everyone: "Craig and Vasek follow me up, the others just wait outside!" The younger brothers around shouted in unison: "Yes, boss!" Clegg and Vasek looked at each other, and the corners of Vasek''s mouth turned up, looking very happy that he was trusted by the boss. Clegg felt a slight movement in his heart. Vox ignored everyone''s thoughts, got up and walked into the hotel lobby. grabbed a waiter casually and said: "Take me to your restaurant on the second floor." The waiter trembled with fright, nodded repeatedly, and walked ahead to lead the way. In fact, the restaurant on the second floor is easy to find, because facing the hotel entrance is a big staircase about three meters wide. After going up the stairs to the second floor, there is a restaurant like a banquet hall on the right hand side. It''s breakfast time now, and there are some diners sitting sparsely in the restaurant, enjoying breakfast inside. Vox scanned the restaurant and said to the waiter: "Which table is A19?" The waiter quickly raised his finger and pointed to a dining table not far away near the window. Vox followed the waiter''s fingers, and saw a middle-aged Caucasian bald man about thirty-six years old sitting on the table. The man was wearing a linen suit and was holding a cup of coffee, gesturing to this side. Nodding to the bald man, Vaux walked directly towards him. Vasek and Clegg followed closely behind and followed. The waiter let out a long sigh of relief when he saw a few people ignoring him, and hurriedly turned and left, as if he was afraid of being caught again. As several people approached, Craig saw the man''s face clearly, and his eyes were fixed. He was very sure that this man was the one he was forced to remember last night, one of the bodyguards waiting outside the box like them. If it weren''t for the torture he suffered last night, he might not be able to remember who the other party was. But now it is impossible for him not to know each other. When there were still two tables away from the other party, Vaux pointed to a table next to him. Vasek and Clegg hurriedly stopped, understanding that this meant the two of them sitting here and waiting. This is a routine operation, and of course the two of them will not have any objections. Vasek was even more excited. Immediately after sitting down, he reached out and called the waiter to start ordering. Clegg carefully observed the people in the restaurant. He didn''t think about Vox''s safety. Now what he cares about is whether the other party came alone or whether there are other accomplices. He has to figure it out, otherwise when the intelligence agency finds him again, if he can''t give an accurate answer, he worries that he will be tortured again. But after all, he has not received professional training, and his movements are really too amateurish. If there are professionals on the scene, it is impossible for him to have the opportunity to observe any abnormalities. Of course, others will not notice anything unusual about him. As a bodyguard, it is his duty to observe whether the surroundings are safe. While Clegg was looking around, Vaux had already sat opposite the bald man. "Hello, Mr. Vaux, my boss, let me send you his regards!" The bald man said to Vaux while stirring the coffee cup with a silver spoon. The tone sounds like, very respectful. But that casual gesture doesn''t seem very respectful. Didn''t even get up to greet him, let alone stand up and shake hands for self-introduction. But Vaux obviously didn''t care about these details. Instead, he turned his head and looked around, and found that no one was paying attention, so he lowered his voice and said: "Sir, please tell your boss. This incident was an accident, and the goods are now being detained by the navy. I did absolutely nothing. " After the bald man heard Vox''s words, a sneer of disdain leaked from the corner of his mouth, and he took a sip of the coffee in his hand. I found that it still didn''t seem sweet enough, so I added another cube of sugar and continued to stir. While stirring, he raised his eyes and glanced at the nervous Vaux, and said in a flat tone: "Do you think, if it wasn''t an accident this time, would you still be able to sit in front of me alive?" Hearing the other party''s indifferent tone, the words he said made Vox''s hair stand on end. He is also a gangster, he has long been used to beating and killing, and he has a lot of blood on his hands. But among all the people he met, no one could sit there and talk about life and death so plainly. The other party''s attitude made him understand that life and death in front of the other party is as casual as everyday food. Fortunately, the other party made it clear that knowing what happened this time was an accident. This made him breathe a long sigh of relief. "That''s good, that''s good, please help to reply to your boss, I am already reorganizing the source of goods, and will definitely re-ship the goods to our agreed place as soon as possible. " The bald man was quite satisfied with Vox''s performance, so he nodded his head rare and said: "Oh! So when did you say ASAP?" "Tomorrow, it will be shipped tomorrow." Vox hurriedly returned to the road. "No! As far as I know, your people only arrived in Rio de Janeiro last night, so they should still be purchasing new arms, right? Do you know the consequences of lying to us? " The bald man stopped stirring the coffee, stared at Vaux with cold eyes, and said unceremoniously. Hearing the bald man''s words, Vaux was also in a cold sweat. It seems that the actions on my side have not been hidden from the other party at all! Perhaps, this is the reason why I can continue to sit here alive and communicate with each other! (end of this chapter) Chapter 313: peers Chapter 313 Peer Vox at this time had to feel lucky for his foresight. Please rest assured that our purchases in Rio are just a layer of insurance. Real cargo, we''ve come to Recife to get it, Tomorrow, tomorrow morning we will be able to load and set off. " The bald man heard Vaux''s words, looked him up and down with great interest, and said: "I didn''t expect Mr. Vaux to have such strength, very good! I will reply to the boss as you said. Hope we can deliver the goods smoothly within the agreed time. Otherwise, I dont think Mr. Vox would want to try, and the consequences of angering our boss would be right? " Today''s situation is really beyond Vaux''s expectations. The other party doesn''t seem to be unreasonable! That''s fine, at least I don''t have to worry about whether it will be wiped out suddenly. "Thank you very much, sir! At that time, please say a few good words in front of the boss. " As he spoke, he took out an envelope from his pocket and put it on the dining table, and quietly pushed it in front of the bald man. The bald man looked at the envelope on the table, visually measured the thickness of the envelope, and opened a corner of the envelope with his fingers, and found that it contained US dollars, not Cruzeiro. Nodding in satisfaction, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, he said: "Mr Vaux, you''re a smart man. Our boss likes to work with smart people. Although what happened this time was an accident, as far as we know, it was also caused by the stupidity of your delivery staff. Hope this doesn''t happen again this time, understand? " Noticing the smile leaking from the corner of the bald man''s mouth, Vaux also smiled slightly, It is fine for the other party to collect the money, and the person who collects the money is the easiest to solve. "Yes Yes. please do not worry! This time, I will personally deliver the goods to ensure that they will be delivered to your destination on time with high quality and quantity. " The bald man casually put the envelope on the table into his trouser pocket, took a sip of the coffee on the table, and then said unhurriedly: "Very good, with Mr. Vaux personally delivering the goods, I believe it must be safe. This time I will be responsible for escorting the ship and confirming the delivery. When the fleet leaves tomorrow, Mr. Vaux remembers to arrange for someone to pick me up. " Vox couldn''t help being taken aback when he heard the bald man''s words. He didn''t know the identity of the man. But being able to represent the owner of the goods and ask about the condition of the goods is obviously someone close to and trusted by the boss. I didn''t expect that the other party would be responsible for escorting the goods this time. It seems that the boss really cares about this batch of goods! "No problem, I haven''t asked for advice yet, what should I call sir." I don''t know if it''s because of the money, but Vaux thinks that the bald man''s attitude is obviously much better than when he first met. This made him feel more relaxed. The bald man smiled casually and said: "Devis Barry, you can call me Davis. I hope we can cooperate happily this time. " Vox also very happily stood up and stretched out his hand: "Nice to meet you!" The bald man also smiled and got up and shook hands with Vaux. Seeing this situation, Clegg, who was sitting not far away, knew that Vaux had reached an agreement with the other party. This was beyond his expectation. I didn''t expect such a large batch of goods to be seized, and the other party was so talkative, and easily let Vaux go. Is this big man so talkative? Or in fact, this batch of goods is not that important to the big shots? Last night, Vox found the garrison to find a new source of goods. Clegg obviously hasn''t received the news yet. So, it is normal to have such thoughts. Two people who meet for the first time obviously don''t have so many topics to discuss. When the two shook hands with each other, it was regarded as a formal acquaintance, and Vaux directly stated that he would hurry up and prepare the goods. Resigned to the other party. The bald man De Weiss did not make any efforts to retain him. The two of them did not discuss where the new munitions came from. Even if De Weiss asked, Vox would not answer. This is his new arms channel. Of course, it must be in his own hands and cannot allow others to get involved. Seeing Vaux approaching, Craig understood that he was about to leave, and quickly stood up. Vasek on the opposite side was still struggling with the breakfast that had just been served, and he was taken aback when he saw Craig get up. Turning around and seeing his boss approaching, he could not help but sigh, and stuffed a large piece of bread on the table into his mouth. Follow Vaux out of the restaurant. When he reached the door of the restaurant, Vasek ran forward very attentively and opened the door of the restaurant, letting Vaux walk out first. Just as Vaux walked out of the restaurant, Clegg, who had been standing behind Vaux, noticed that there was an Asian man reading a newspaper opposite the restaurant, and he looked up casually. Craig wouldn''t have thought there was anything wrong with the situation had it been before last night. But after experiencing what happened last night, Clegg felt that his nerves had become very sensitive. When he saw that casual look, he always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn''t tell what was wrong. Of course, even if anything abnormal is found, it will not be reported to Vaux. After all, I will pay attention to Vox''s situation at this time, maybe it is an agent of the Intelligence Bureau. The group left the hotel without any stopover. Vasek could clearly feel that Boss Vaux''s mood seemed to have improved, and his driving posture relaxed a bit. At this time, in the Fernando de Noronha Islands, a ship escorting prisoners docked at the pier again. This made the residents on the island very curious. After all, no new prisoners have come to the island for more than two years. Those Japanese were not sent to the island by a police ship, but they seemed to have landed on the island themselves. There are more than 50 prisoners on the island this time, with different skin colors. The police officers in charge of the **** drove these newcomers off the boat very roughly, and then drove away without looking back. As for handover, there is nothing like this, because this is exile, not detention. There are no police staff on the island at all. The police in charge of the **** did not directly drive the prisoners into the sea, which was considered benevolent. The prisoners had been removed from their handcuffs and shackles before disembarking. This made some prisoners look very excited, after all, this is considered to have restored their freedom. There were a few tall and strong prisoners who started to move their hands and feet, looking like they were about to do a big fight. Even some of the thinner-looking prisoners seemed very happy. After all, being on this island is much more comfortable than being in a small cage in a prison. But everyone soon discovered that something was wrong, the ship transporting them had just left the pier less than a hundred meters away. A lot of malicious figures appeared around the pier, and the number of them was several times that of them. After all, they are all sensible people who have worked their way out of various prisons. When they saw this posture, they didn''t understand what it was going to do. Interested people dropped their luggage and squatted down with their heads in their arms. Some people also choose to jump directly into the sea to avoid attack. Of course, there are also some masters who are self-sufficient, bravely rushing towards the rushing crowd. As for uniting to deal with it together, it is impossible. Everyone is just prisoners, not a trained army. What''s more, everyone comes from different places and is not familiar with each other. Unable to organize an effective defense at all, they were directly overwhelmed by a charge. The masters who fought bravely were also rushed to the ground by the huge flow of people. These islanders are like a group of hyenas, teaching the newcomers who have just arrived on the island a good lesson. After the crowd left with their respective harvests, only the mess and helpless newcomers were left. Everyone was cursing on the pier to clean up the mess, and some people looked in the direction of the island with sinister eyes. More people quietly cleaned up the mess with calm eyes, hoping to find some items that could still be used normally. There are also some people who seem to have made up their minds and walked directly to the island with empty hands. Slowly, there was the first one, and then there was the second one. Everyone followed and walked into this exiled island along a path that was trampled out by people. What kind of life awaits them next depends on their respective fates. In a room on the fourth floor of the Gradia Hotel, an Asian man in a suit was reporting to another Asian man. "Leader, the person who met Devis Barry at the restaurant today has a problem." The man who listened to the report was the investigation department of Fangyuan Group, the team leader Cao Dazhu who was arranged by Zhong Ze to investigate the whereabouts of another bodyguard of Credo Eddie. "You also noticed that there were other intelligence personnel at the scene, right?" After hearing the subordinate''s question, Cao Dazhu nodded with a smile. "Yes, there were at least two tables of guests in the restaurant at that time who were not ordinary guests. I can smell the same kind of breath from them. But they seem to follow this gangster. " As he spoke, he pointed to a photo on the table and said. And the photo on the table is exactly Vaux, and the background of the photo was taken in the restaurant. As for when it was photographed, there is no way of knowing. "Yeah! They have also been eyeing Devis Barry now, and we have to be extra careful in our next actions. I suspect they are from the Brazilian intelligence service. " Cao Dazhu looked at the two photos on the table with a serious expression. "Leader, are you saying that the Brazilian Intelligence Agency is monitoring this gangster? But what can a gangster do? " "Hehe. Who said gangsters can''t do big things anymore. Have you forgotten how many of our opponents in Shanghai came from gangsters? Besides, since this Devis Barry can make a special trip from Rio de Janeiro to Recife to meet this gangster, It shows that there must be something special about this gangster. Otherwise, the Brazilian Intelligence Agency would not be able to keep an eye on the opponent. " "Then what should we do now, since the Brazilian Intelligence Agency has discovered Devis Barry, it will definitely investigate him. So sooner or later we will run into these people. " Cao Dazhu heard the worry of his subordinates, smiled and said: "Don''t worry, it''s a good thing. The Brazilian Intelligence Agency does not belong to the Ministry of Justice, and they will not give the Eddie family face. Now that they''re investigating Devis Barry. Explain that this family also did some shady things in Recife. This is just right, we have now made it clear that the Eddie family is our enemy. There''s nothing wrong with adding another enemy to them. As for the purpose of our investigation, it has actually been achieved. The most important task now is to collect evidence of crimes committed by the Eddie family. Now someone does it for us, aren''t we happy and relaxed? After they get the results of their investigation, we can find a way to get them. " Cao Dazhu''s thoughts are very clear. After all, this is also the home field of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency. Their investigation must be easier than their own investigation. Why don''t you wait for the harvest? (end of this chapter) Chapter 314: Investigation progress of the second intelligence department Chapter 314 Investigation Progress of the Second Intelligence Division Hearing Cao Dazhu''s thoughts, his subordinates couldn''t help showing a treacherous smile. Using their means, it is actually very simple to steal these evidences from the Brazilian Intelligence Agency without knowing it. After all, in their eyes, these agents of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency are inexperienced and their methods are still immature. "Then do we need to report the situation here to the minister?" "Of course, this is a situation where there may be a confrontation with the Brazilian Intelligence Agency. How could they not report to the higher authorities? Even if the other party is a novice, they are still a country''s intelligence agency. If one is not good, we may end up here. We need to be confident, but not arrogant, understand? " "Yes, sir!" After hearing Cao Dazhu''s words, the subordinates solemnly stood at attention and saluted, expressing their understanding. In the intelligence battlefield, there can be no negligence, and a bad one may capsize the ship in the gutter. To do anything, you have to do everything you can. This is their blood lesson for so many years. Soon, Fang Lang, who was far away in Natal, received this information. When he saw Recife, the Brazilian Intelligence Agency and gangsters, Fang Lang vaguely understood what was going on. I couldn''t help laughing, this is a bit interesting, the flood rushed into the Dragon King Temple! Pick up the phone on the table directly. "Lieutenant Sirio Reich, come to my office." "Yes, Your Excellency General." Soon, the main intelligence officer of the aircraft carrier fleet, Lieutenant Sirio Leitch, Chief of the Second Section of the Logistics Department, rushed to Fang Lang''s office. Fang Lang didn''t talk nonsense with the other party, and asked directly: "How is the investigation of the arms smuggling case going?" Lieutenant Sirio Leitch hurriedly stood at attention and saluted: "Your Excellency, our personnel have launched all-round monitoring of this gangster named Vaux. Last night, through his father-in-law, he contacted a major staff officer of the Recife garrison. Borrowed a battalion of equipment from the security regiment, and it has been pulled out of the barracks at noon today. " Looking at the serious Lieutenant Sirio Leitch, Fang Lang smiled and stood up from behind his desk, walked to a brand new tea table in the reception area and sat down, pointed to the opposite side of him, and motioned for Sirio Lieutenant Reich sat down and said. "Come on, sit down and talk, did you just say borrow? The equipment of the Recife garrison can also be lent to arms dealers for takeaway? " This tea table was re-purchased by Fang Lang after drinking Kung Fu tea with the Minister of the Air Force at home last time. Now whenever you come to Fang Lang''s office to discuss things, Fang Lang will guide everyone to sit at the tea table and spread the Chinese tea culture. Lieutenant Sirio Leitch also understood Fang Lang''s new habit, so he was not polite and went directly to the opposite side of Fang Lang. "Yes, Your Excellency General! According to our investigation from the garrison regiment, this Vaux will purchase a battalion of American equipment from Rio de Janeiro and return it to the garrison regiment. Officers at all levels of the garrison can get thousands of dollars in benefits from this transaction. " Lieutenant Sirio Leitch stated the latest findings with a sarcasm. This was beyond Fang Lang''s expectation, and he couldn''t help but smiled and said: "Hey who came up with the idea, what a **** genius!" "The exact idea is still uncertain. What we have investigated is that this gangster named Vaux visited this major staff officer named Staffan Capello last night. That night, the staff officer began to move around and facilitated the deal. The head and chief of staff of the garrison both received a bonus of 8,000 U.S. dollars, and they could also equip a battalion with national equipment. They didn''t say no. " Fang Lang listened to Sirio Leitch''s report, as if listening to a story, smiled and said: Its a pity that this kind of talent doesnt go into business. It seems that the equipment of the first batch of garrison regiments will be sent to the island! Aren''t they afraid that when someone uses this batch of equipment to do something bad, they will be found out? " Lieutenant Sirio Leitch was very calm, as if he was familiar with it and said: "They can just collect the money themselves. They don''t care about these things. As long as they can pass the inspection, the Ministry of War will not care about this kind of thing." Hearing this, Fang Lang smiled and shook his head, and began to add charcoal to the small red clay stove. Since the tea table was put into the office, the charcoal fire in the red clay stove has not been extinguished. Fang Lang was also worried about whether he would be poisoned by carbon monoxide if he burned charcoal in the office, so he specially installed a ventilation fan in the office for this reason. "Hehe. It''s okay! Has the person who arranged to go to the island for investigation gone up?" "Yes, a boat of prisoners was arranged to go to the island today, and two of them are our intelligence agents. I believe news will come back soon." "Very good, but the speed at which this guy named Vaux raised arms exceeded our plan. Once the arms are on the island, make your people pay attention to safety. With the murder weapon in hand, the intention to kill is self-inflicted. These Japanese purchase so many arms, not for fun. " Fang Lang told Sirio Leitch while placing the tea set on the tea table. Sirio Reich certainly understood the danger of this investigation, so he nodded seriously and said: "Your Excellency, please rest assured! We are fully prepared. If there is a riot, we will arrange for the evacuation of personnel as soon as possible. " After rinsing all the tea sets with boiling water in the teapot, Fang Lang poured the tea into a gaiwan. Use boiling water again, wash the tea, and brew a set of movements. Sirio Leitch, who watched it, felt relaxed and happy, and was full of admiration. When Fang Lang handed him a cup of tea, Sirio Leitch quickly took it with both hands, thanking him again and again! Fang Lang smiled and made a gesture to invite tea. Sirio Leitch was not polite, and quickly picked up the teacup and took a sip, and a fresh fragrance rushed straight into his nose. Let him be shocked. Now everyone in the fleet knows that Fleet Commander Fang Lang likes to drink tea, and everyone is proud to be able to drink a cup of tea at Commander Fang. So, Sirio Leitch felt very honored to be awarded this honor for a little lieutenant. "Is there anything new?" After Fang Lang took a sip himself, he said lightly: "Yes, Your Excellency General! This morning, the target person went to the Gradia Hotel in Recife and met a bald man suspected of being an arms buyer. According to the hotel check-in information, the bald man is named Devis Barry, I just checked in this morning. The room is in room 504 on the fifth floor. However, we are still investigating the identity of this man. " Hearing Sirio Leitch''s words, Fang Lang smiled slightly, and said to himself, as expected. But at this moment Fang Lang hesitated in his heart, whether to report to Sirio Reich what the Fangyuan Group Investigation Department is investigating. After all, although Sirio Reich is now working in the second section of his logistics department, they actually belong to the Natal branch of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency. Normally speaking, they must regularly report the situation in Natal to the Intelligence Bureau. Will the Intelligence Bureau be vigilant because of the existence of the investigation department of the Fangyuan Group? Although Blackwell of the Intelligence Bureau is his friend, Fang Lang dare not take this risk. But now that the relationship between the Eddie family and this arms smuggling case is known, the Second Division of the Logistics Department will definitely find out about the Eddie family in the end. Originally, Fang Lang only wanted to watch the fire from the other side and let the Japanese kill themselves. Finally, I came forward to clean up the mess, earn some military merits, and add a little combat experience to the Marine Corps. But unexpectedly, this incident involved his enemies, the Eddie family. If you don''t take advantage of this opportunity to eradicate some wings of the Eddie family, you will be sorry for Fang Lang himself! For a political family like the Eddie family, although Fang Lang has the opportunity to eradicate all family members, their political influence will cause Fang Lang very huge trouble. Even directly created a huge political enemy for himself, which Fang Lang didn''t want to see. The only way to find a way to discredit the Eddy family is to make his political allies abandon them. Then, no matter how Fang Lang tries to manipulate the Eddie family, he will not suffer any backlash. And this arms smuggling case involves the Eddie family, which will inevitably damage the reputation of the Eddie family. It may not be possible to make the Eddie family become rebellious, but it will definitely weaken the political influence of the Eddie family by 30 to 40%. If the Japanese can do a little better, it may not be impossible to weaken the political influence of the Eddie family by 60 to 70%. If you want to achieve this, it is obviously difficult to rely on the investigation department of Fangyuan Group to achieve this level. But the background of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency has a natural advantage in the investigation and handling of this matter. After thinking twice, Fang Lang added tea to Sirio Leitch again: "Lieutenant Reich, do you know about my attack in St. Paul?" Fang Lang''s topic changed so suddenly that Sirio Leitch hadn''t reacted for a while. But this matter is well known to the officers and soldiers of the entire aircraft carrier fleet, and they are very indignant. The attack on the commander-in-chief of the fleet is simply slapping the face of the entire fleet. Although Fang Lang didn''t comment on this matter after he came back. But the officers and soldiers of the entire fleet are very dissatisfied with the government''s delay in investigating the real culprit behind the scenes. Sirio Reich knew that the Sao Paulo Intelligence Station of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency had participated in the investigation. The investigative team of the Ministry of Justice appointed by the president can deprive the investigative power, but the investigative team of the Ministry of Justice that has just taken over the investigation has let the most important murderer be silenced. Whether in the eyes of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency or in the eyes of Sirio Reich, this matter is full of conspiracy. Fang Lang suddenly mentioned his assassination today. Could it be that he wanted to make himself responsible for investigating this matter? Sirio Leitch was full of doubts, but he quickly denied this guess. After all, the two people in front were talking about the arms smuggling case! General Fang''s sudden mention of his assassination was obviously not without reason. But he couldn''t think of any connection between the two cases. In fact, in Sirio Reich''s heart, he really hoped that he would have the opportunity to participate in the investigation of this case. After all, although he is still the head of the Natal branch of the Intelligence Agency, since he transferred his work location to the second division of the Fleet Logistics Department. Both he and the soldiers of the intelligence station have a sense of belonging to the second division of the Fleet Logistics Department. One, because of good benefits; Secondly, the working method and atmosphere of the fleet are very different from those of the Intelligence Bureau. There are not so many intrigues and corruption. Let Sirio Leitch see hope, he will never allow anyone to hurt the soul of the fleet. So, without hesitation, he said: "Yes, Your Excellency General! This matter is a great shame to our entire fleet officers and soldiers. If Your Excellency General trusts the capabilities of the Second Division of the Logistics Department, we will do our best to investigate the real culprit behind the scenes for you and bring him to justice. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 315: stand in line Chapter 315 Standing in line Fang Lang looked at Sirio Leitch who looked a little excited, smiled and didn''t say much. Instead, he raised his hand to signal the other party to drink tea. I am very satisfied with the other party''s statement, and I am very pleased with the other party''s claim that the second branch of the logistics department is not the Natal station of the Bureau of Investigation. Because, in fact, this is a kind of standing in line. Among the Intelligence Agency and the Fleet, he chose to side with the Fleet. This made Fang Lang very happy, his efforts were not in vain, and this intelligence force could really be used by him. Seeing Sirio Leitch pick up the teacup in his hand and drink it in one gulp. After Fang Lang continued to refill him, he also refilled a glass for himself. then slowly opened the mouth and said: "Since you think you are a soldier of the second division of the logistics department of my fleet, then we are our own. Some things, I can also tell you directly. " The sentence "We are our own people" can be regarded as a complete acceptance of Sirio Leitch''s vote. Sirio Leitch was very excited. After all, it turned out that he moved to the fleet to come to the office, and there were still some forced reasons in it. After such a long period of running-in, they have completely integrated into the big family of the fleet. But their identity as the Natal branch of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency also keeps them from the fleet. This made Sirio Leitch and the soldiers always feel a little awkward. Fang Lang''s words today can be regarded as a complete acceptance of them. It gave Sirio Leitch a feeling that he was first from the Second Division of the Fleet Logistics Department, and then from the Natal Branch of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency. These are two completely different concepts from the original, and there is a sense of dj vu that has changed. In order to express his attitude more clearly, Sirio Leitch got up directly, and solemnly saluted Fang Lang: "Rio de Janeiro Aircraft Carrier Strike Group, Chief of the Second Section of the Logistics Department, Sirio Leitch, reports to Your Excellency the General." Fang Lang understood what Sirio Leitch meant, and stood up and greeted Sirio Leitch before signaling him to sit down. The two confirmed their new relationship through a simple military salute. After Sirio Reich sat down again, Fang Lang took a sip from his teacup before saying to Sirio Reich: "Actually, I have found the man behind the assassination of me." Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Sirio Leitch''s heart was shocked. The investigation team of the Ministry of Justice has not yet given specific investigation results, and Fang Lang already knows the real behind-the-scenes. It seems that the black hand behind the scenes is quite powerful, otherwise it would be impossible for no voice to come out. But now that Fang Lang already knows who is behind the scenes, Sirio Leitch, who just chose to stand in the team, of course has to express his attitude. So, without hesitation, he got up and saluted: "Your Excellency, no matter who this mastermind is, please tell me the name of the other party, and I will personally organize the manpower to carry out the task of clearing him." Seeing the other party''s statement, Fang Lang believed that the other party was definitely not joking. But Fang Lang didn''t need the other party to perform such a task for him. Waved his hands with a smile, signaling the other party to be calm, and sat down to continue talking. Poured another cup of tea and put it in front of Sirio Leitch, Fang Lang smiled and said: "The enemies that have been exposed are not terrible. Actually, I have never had any conflicts with the other party. I don''t quite understand why the other party wants to attack me. So, I invited some people to help me investigate the real reason why the other party attacked me. Although the reason has not been investigated yet, they encountered you during the investigation. " Sirio Leitch was shocked when he heard the words, his eyes widened, and he asked in disbelief: "Your Excellency General, you mean the man named Devis Barry." I have to say that Sirio Reich is indeed a person suitable for intelligence work. Fang Lang just said such a sentence, and he immediately reacted. Actually, what shocked Sirio Reich was far more than that, he was a smart man. Fang Lang found another person and was investigating this guy named Devis Barry. His people just discovered him today. The person responsible for investigating this person has already discovered his own investigators. But his investigators didn''t notice anything at all. This shows what? It shows that the other party is more elite than oneself, hides better, and has stronger investigation ability. It seems that if there is a chance in the future, I have to learn from each other! Fang Lang was not surprised by Sirio Leitch''s reaction, he smiled and continued: "The reason why I will know who is behind the scenes is actually very simple. The St. Paul police chief who was framed is my friend. When he was transferred to the detention room of the Ministry of Justice, he remembered the identity of the bearded man who organized the gang to surround and kill me. The other party was one of the bodyguards of the former Brazilian Deputy Minister of Justice, Crecci Eddy, And the deputy minister died during the siege of the presidential palace by Japanese mobs. The bearded man was the bodyguard of Mr. Deputy Minister''s second son Raymond Eddie before his death. This Devis Barry is a colleague with a beard. " Sirio Leitch frowned after hearing Fang Lang''s words. As a rear admiral, Fang Lang was able to explain what happened to his subordinate, which was a great respect for him. His first reaction after hearing about this relationship was not that he was afraid of how powerful the Deputy Minister of Justice was. Instead, he was thinking about why the other party sent a batch of arms to the island near Natal. What is the purpose of doing this? Could it be some kind of conspiracy against General Fang. After all, it is the equipment of a whole battalion. Will the other side want to train these people, and then sneak into Natal to carry out another attack like that. If this is the case, without Fang Lang''s order, he himself will send this evil family to hell. "Your Excellency, the ultimate goal of these **** sending so many arms to the island is not you!" Fang Lang was taken aback after hearing this. He really hadn''t considered this possibility. But is there such a possibility? Of course there is such a possibility. After all, training on this small island far away from the mainland will not attract attention. And the Japanese launched an attack on themselves, and it was not easy for people to find any connection with the Eddie family. If it weren''t for this aircraft carrier training, and this arms smuggling happened to happen, who would have thought that the Eddie family would be involved? "This requires your investigation. Since, now you have found this Devis Barry. Then I will leave the rest of the investigation to you. how? Do you have the confidence to bring the other party to justice? By the way, help me investigate the real reason why they attacked me. " When Sirio Leitch heard Fang Lang''s order, he felt a great responsibility, but at the same time he felt very honored. directly stood up and saluted: "Please rest assured, General, the Second Division of our Logistics Department will definitely investigate this matter to the bottom. Bring the **** man behind the scenes to justice, Make them pay dearly for what they did. " Fang Lang saw Sirio Leitch''s passionate look, nodded with a smile and said: "Very good, but you must pay attention to safety when investigating, and don''t alarm the other party. In addition, I hope that all the evidence in this case must be complete. After all, the other party is very powerful in the Ministry of Justice, don''t be taken advantage of, understand? " "Yes, Your Excellency General." Fang Lang, who watched Sirio Leitch leave, poured himself a cup of tea, and continued to think about whether there is any way to expand the influence of this matter. Now Fang Lang has confirmed that the Eddie family is directly related to this arms smuggling case. But there is no substantive evidence. After all, the only one who can link this case with the Eddie family is this Davis Barry. If the Eddie family perceives the risk in advance, they will definitely find a way to silence Devis Barry. At that time, it is impossible to have any direct evidence that can prove that the Eddie family is related to this arms transaction. Fang Lang had to continue to fall into contemplation. Soon the office phone rang, waking Fang Lang up from his contemplation. "Hello! I''m Fang Lang!" "Haha. It''s Mr. Anderson! Hello, hello!" "Oh! Is the TV station going to start broadcasting?" "Haha. All right, all right, I''ll definitely come over and have a look." After hanging up the phone, Fang Lang was overjoyed, and was just thinking about expanding the influence of the matter. Isnt there a way to come to the door now? I have a media group in my hand, so it turns out that this card in my opponent''s hand is not used much. But now with the establishment of the TV station, the influence of the media group will expand to an unparalleled level. People who read newspapers in Brazil may be social elites, because everyone must first be literate, and secondly, they must be able to buy newspapers. But TV is different. TV can transmit news to people''s eyes and ears in real time through pictures and sounds. Whether you can read or not, you can clearly understand what happened. It is even possible to spread some subjective views to people through the words of the host. Although there are not many people who can afford TVs now, I can promote TVs for free in some public places! Even if it is just to watch the excitement, it will attract a large number of people to gather. When the time comes to report the arms smuggling case on the TV news, all the evidence will be on the surface, and the host will give some guidance. Even if there is no direct evidence to prove that the Eddie family participated in this arms smuggling. The public will not believe that this case has nothing to do with the Eddie family. At that time, the Eddie family will not be able to deny it. Smart politicians should make a choice soon! At a fishing village pier in Recife far from the urban area, Vaux and Devis Barry were leaning on a car parked by the pier and puffing. In Recife in June, there is a chill in the sea breeze. Devis Barry, who has been blowing the sea breeze here for almost half an hour, said impatiently: "I said, Mr. Vaux, you said let me come over to check the status of the goods. Look at the sky, the sun is almost setting. Your goods haven''t arrived yet, so you''re not trying to play tricks on me! " Vox looked up at the sun with a trace of red clouds in the sky, then raised his hand to look at the watch in his hand, smiled and said to Davis Barry: "Mr. Davis, please rest assured! Our goods have now departed. However, with such a large amount of munitions, it is still relatively dangerous to pass through the urban area. So, the convoy may have taken a detour, so we''d better wait a little bit patiently. " Devis Barry glared at Vaux angrily and said: "The chief of police in Recife is all his own people, so we have nothing to be afraid of, can''t we just let the truck take the shortest road? Are you still afraid that someone will dare to check your goods? Are you that bad at Recife? " (end of this chapter) Chapter 316: test Chapter 316 Exploration Vox looked at the arrogant, unscrupulous bald man in front of him, and his heart skipped a beat. This kind of personality that is rampant when one succeeds is very unpleasant. In these years of black career, he also met two such guys. Although both of them had a good time, they didn''t end up very happy in the end. The last time I met his boss, he also felt that the other party was a bit too strong, and he had no scruples in doing things by hook or by crook. But thinking about the characters that the chief of the police would fawn on, Vaux didn''t think it was a big deal. But the guy in front of him is just a subordinate, so he dares to be so rampant, it''s not easy to imagine! It seems that this matter is over, you have to stay away from them. If I had known this was the case, I would have preferred not to accept this business. Originally looking at the face of the police chief, and the huge amount of this business, which can make a lot of money, he gritted his teeth and went on. But with a shipment of goods being inspected, I have now filled in all the profits in order to fill this hole. In the end, I guess it is a voluntary help. But helping is helping, if you get yourself into it, the loss outweighs the gain. Hope everything goes well! Vox prayed silently in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he said: "Mr. Davis, the Chief of Police is my friend, even if something goes wrong with my goods in the city, we can take them out. But wouldn''t it be a waste of time? Plus we are friends with the chief of police, so we need to reduce unnecessary troubles for our friends, dont we? Because of our mistake this time, it has already brought you and your boss a lot of trouble. So, now I will be extra careful. Hope Mr. Davis can understand. " Maybe Vox has a really good attitude of admitting his mistakes, and every word he said makes sense. Devis Brazil finally suppressed his anger and said to Vaux: "I hope you really won''t have any problems this time, I''ll wait for you in the car. Call me when the goods arrive. " After speaking, he turned around, opened the door, got in the car and went to rest. "Okay, Mr. Nadevez, take a break, I''ll have someone to remind you, and I will notify you as soon as I arrive." Vox said with a humble face. After the other party closed the car door, Vaux took a few steps forward and came to another car. He saw several of his trusted subordinates smoking in the lee of boredom. "Gillard, you go forward to meet the delivery convoy. When you see them, you must make it clear to them. Try to delay driving to the pier until dark." Girard with black afro-haired man heard Vox''s order, and with a black question mark face, he looked at Vox in puzzlement and said: "Boss, why! When it gets dark, it will be difficult to inspect the goods. " Hearing Girard''s words, Vaux kicked his **** angrily. "Whatever you are told to do, you do. I don''t know that it''s not easy to inspect the goods when it''s dark? I have already experienced it in the afternoon, and there is no problem. Now it is the buyer''s inspection, why let others inspect it so clearly? Get out of here! " When everyone heard what the boss said, they didn''t understand what it meant. Everyone looked at each other and laughed. The black afro Girard also smiled and said: "Boss, you said that earlier, didn''t I understand? Don''t worry, the goods will never arrive until it is dark. Or I''m rearranging and putting the good stuff outside for that bald head to check. " Vox waved his hands and said: "You don''t need to do these, I have already arranged them. Go!" Actually, Vaux did this out of helplessness. When the ammunition of the garrison arrived at his warehouse at noon, he went to check it. The condition of these equipment is indeed not ideal, and some rifles are almost worn out. And some of the bolts are almost rusted. I dont know if this is the status quo of the equipment of the garrison regiment, or whether these are scraps collected from an abandoned warehouse by the garrison regiment. But now that the cowhide has been blown out, Vaux has no way to return it. He had no choice but to bite the bullet and accept the equipment, and he also wanted to thank Major Staffan Capello who sent the equipment over. After the other party left, he could only find some relatively high-quality beauty equipment from his warehouse, and reorganize and load them into the car. And put your equipment in a more conspicuous position and mark it well. Instruct the younger brother in charge of transportation to look for these marks, and when others want to inspect the goods, they will directly take out these high-quality goods for inspection. After the afro Girard left, Craig glanced at it, and Vaux, who was in a bad mood, glanced at it. Said to Vaux calmly: "Boss, what is the origin of this bald head, he looks very hanging. Dare to shout at you, do you need me to bring some brothers, put a sack on him and beat him up. " Vox gave Clegg a surprised look. After all, in his impression, his nephew had been by his side for so long, and he was used to talking less. Although he looks very calm, in fact, this kid grew up watching him. He is simply a reckless man who can''t do things with his head, otherwise he wouldn''t just let him be a bodyguard by his side every day. The reason why he looks calm is that he gave him a death order, and when he was by his side, he watched more, did more, and talked less. If he speaks more than ten sentences a day, he will be driven home by himself. But in fact, this guy has managed to watch more and talk less. As for doing more, it is impossible to do more. Everything is stiff, and when others take the initiative to do it, he will do superficial work himself. But in the end it is his nephew, Vaux will not suspect that there is something wrong with Clegg. The question I am asking now, I obviously feel that I am not respected by others, and I am not very happy. smiled and said: "You boy, don''t mess around. This bald head is a confidante of the cargo owner, and the cargo owner is a big shot. We can''t afford to offend each other. After this business is over, we probably won''t have the chance to see each other again. Everyone bear with it. " Wasek on the side listened to Clegg''s words, and saw that Vox had a smile on his face after hearing Clegg''s words, as if he had grasped the knack of flattering. followed suit and said: "Boss, this bald man is just an errand runner, how dare he disrespect you so much. Even if you are a confidant of a big man, it''s nothing special. After the business is over, I will find an opportunity to bring someone to be him, so as to ensure that no one will suspect us. " Hearing the words of the two bodyguards under him, Vox glared at them, then looked at the vehicle where Devis Barry was in vigilantly, and saw that the other party hadn''t got out of the car. He should not be able to hear the words here, so he breathed a sigh of relief. Lower the voice channel: "Damn it, you two bastards, don''t drag me if you want to die. Other peoples boss is someone who even the police chief of Recife wants to curry favor with. Can we offend him? You did someone else''s job. As far as your skills are concerned, it''s not that I look down on you. It is estimated that the two of you are tied together, and neither of you is someone else''s opponent. " Craig heard Vox''s words and thought, so what? Now it''s not that we are going to drag you to die together, but that you yourself have jumped into the coffin. All of us are being targeted for this business of yours. The other party must have been targeted. Now if you want to save your life, you have to find a way to find the big boss behind the scenes. If he could find this big boss, he might have a chance to save his life. After all, what is being investigated now is a spy! At this moment, Craig''s brain was running wildly, thinking about how to get the identity of the boss out of Vaux''s mouth without comprehension. Before Clegg could speak, Vasek on the side spoke first: "Boss, since the opponent is so powerful, why don''t we just rely on him! We are the biggest gang in Recife, this big man will definitely need us, right? At that time, we will kill this **** again, I believe the boss will not do anything to us! " Voxs eyes flashed coldly after hearing Vaseks words, and his trust in Vasek plummeted. Be your own boss in Recife, okay? Why do you want to be a dog to some big shit. Craig on the side didn''t want to be a dog for a big shot who might be a spy. Worried that Vox really listened to what Vasek said, he slapped Vasek on the back of the head, causing him to stagger. cursed and said: "Vasek you bastard! What do you want? Our boss is a big shot himself, why should we rely on others. When the boss gave an order, I went straight to kill him. Lv, the big man is amazing! It''s not a one-shot down. " Vasek, who was slapped, turned around and wanted to fight back, but after hearing Clegg''s words, his heart shook. When he turned around and saw his boss Vaux''s gloomy face, he immediately knew that he had said something wrong. Turning his head, he quickly turned around, and slapped himself with a "slap!" Hastily turned to Vaux and said: "Boss, I didn''t think twice, Craig is right! Whats so great about this big man, is he begging us to provide him with arms. Probably not as powerful as the boss! This time he sent such a thing over, it is clear that he looks down on us. Give me a chance, and I will immediately bring someone to do it. " Vox saw Vasek''s performance, and didn''t express any opinion, but just looked at Vasek blankly. Wasek looked uncomfortable. Seeing this scene, Clegg knew that what Vasek said just now must have aroused Vaux''s suspicion. With a move in his heart, he kicked Vasek directly and said: "Vasek, you bastard. Its not that I look down on you, just like you, I really dont believe that you have the guts to shoot at big shots. " Wasek, who was kicked by Clegg, didn''t know that he was really aroused by Clegg. Still, afraid that Vox would doubt his loyalty. ignored Clegg, looked up at Vaux and said: "Boss, who is this big man you said, I will go and make him for you now." Clegg was overjoyed when he heard Vasek''s words. Didn''t he ask the question he wanted to ask the most? He couldn''t help pricking up his ears, wanting to hear how Vox would answer this question. Unexpectedly, at this time, two car horns sounded in the distance. Everyone looked up, and before they knew it, the sun had already set and the sky was completely dark. Not far away, five trucks were staggering towards the pier. Vox saw the lights in the distance, looked up at the night again, and nodded in satisfaction. Turned his head to Vasek and Clegg and said: "Take care of your mouth and don''t say something nonsense." After speaking, he turned his head and walked towards the car where Devis Barry was. Seeing this situation, Clegg secretly thought it was a pity. Wasek on the side let out a long sigh of relief. Today is really dangerous, and I almost put myself in it just because I said something wrong. Looking at Clegg on the side, he didn''t know if it was an illusion. He felt that Clegg today was a bit strange and different from the Clegg in the past. However, for a while, I couldn''t figure out what was different. (end of this chapter) Chapter 317: Chapter 317 While walking towards Devis Barry, Vox also felt that today''s situation was a bit strange. But he was just a gangster, not an intelligence officer, so he felt a little strange and didn''t take it too seriously. Thought it was a normal intrigue between the two guys under him. "Mr. Davis, let''s go and have a look when the goods arrive!" Vox himself came to the front of Devis Barry''s car window. Devis Barry, who had been sitting in the car with his eyes closed, had heard the whistle of the car a long time ago, but he didn''t move. Instead, he continued to sit in the car with his eyes closed. It wasn''t until Vox came to the window to call him that he said as if he had just woken up: "Ah! It''s finally here. oops! Why is it so dark? " I dont know why, after hearing what Devis Barry said, Vauxs heart tightened. It feels like this guy already knows something. But now that he has reached this point, Vaux can only bite the bullet and say: "Yes! Please forgive me, Mr. Davis! Mainly because the time is too tight. This batch of goods was also dispatched urgently. In order to be able to deliver on time, I can only ship overnight. So, I can only trouble Mr. Davis to inspect the goods overnight. " While the two were talking, five cars had already parked on the pier one by one. Girard jumped directly from the first car and shouted: "Boss, the goods have arrived. Are we going to ship directly?" Vox heard Girard''s cry, and replied: "Wait a minute, let Mr. Davis inspect the goods first." Turning his head to look at Devis Barry sitting in the car again. By the lights of the car, Vaux noticed a vague smile on Devis Barry''s face. Seeing this kind of smile, Vaux felt a little terrified. "Mr. Vaux, tell you the truth! These guys are not for our own use, so I don''t care if things are good or bad. Our boss doesn''t care much either. It doesnt matter if I inspect the goods or not, but since Mr. Vaux warmly invites me, I will reluctantly inspect them one by one! " Devis Barry looked at Vaux with a half-smile, and pointedly said. Vox is certainly not a fool to be able to get to where he is today. When Devis Barry said that he would inspect them one by one, Vaux knew that the other party had already understood the tricks of his batch. Although he didn''t know where the news was leaked, the attitude shown by the other party made him understand that he could act as if he didn''t know anything if he was given enough benefits. Thinking of my plan to exchange German weapons for American weapons, I was already prepared for compensation. Since the other party has expressed their attitude, the things are not for their own use, so he doesn''t care if they are good or bad. If he didn''t know how to be a human being, he wouldn''t be able to get to where he is today. Vox laughed loudly: "Ha ha Mr. Ha Deweiss! Look at the trouble, let you follow us in the cold wind that has been blowing for so long. it''s all my fault. I will let them ship directly now, we will go to my place and arrange some original girls. Let Mr. Davis inspect the goods carefully. The quality of the goods is guaranteed to be the best. " As he spoke, his eyes were fixed on Devis Barry''s face, wanting to see whether the other party could accept his arrangement. In the half-smile expression on the other party''s face, the corners of the eyes were slightly upturned, and Vaux immediately understood. I found the right direction. Devis Barry looked at Vaux still smiling and said: "The price of the original product is not low, right?" Hearing this, Vaux put half his heart down, and said with a smile on his face: "Please ask Mr. De Weiss to inspect the goods, of course we have to pay Mr. De Weiss enough hard work! I don''t know if ten thousand dollars is enough to ask Mr. Davis to make a move. " Since the other party has made it clear that they are asking for benefits, Vox will certainly not hide it. The problems that can be solved with money are small problems. Hearing that Vox asked for ten thousand dollars, Devis Barry smiled and patted Vox on the shoulder. Extended two fingers. This made Vaux a little bit painful, and now it seems that this business is really a loss. But he still doesn''t understand how the other party knew there was something wrong with this batch of arms. You must know that the other party just arrived in Recife this morning! Normally speaking, the most resources that the other party can mobilize are the police department. But this batch of my own goods never passed the police station. Unless the other party has someone by his side. Thinking of this, Vox began to feel a nameless anger. Traitors are the ones that gangsters encounter the most, and the ones they hate the most are also traitors. After gritted his teeth, Vox stared closely at Devis Barry and said: "Okay, but I want a name." Hearing Vox''s words, Devis Barry laughed loudly, and stretched out his right hand to Vox: "Hahaha Mr. Vaux is a cheerful person. make a deal! " Voxs face was ashen. It turned out that he was just skeptical, but the other party directly agreed. It can be regarded as confirming his guess. Now in Vox''s heart, he can''t wait to shoot the traitor around him on the spot. But thinking that the business was not yet finished, he could only suppress his nausea and stretched out his right hand to Davis Barry. The two clasped their hands and reached this PY deal. Devis Barry looked at Vaux, who had an ugly face, and said: "Mr. Vaux, I have to say that you are a powerful person. I think we''ll be friends. But I can''t tell you the name until after the transaction is over. Hope you understand. " Regarding Devis Barry''s compliment, Vox was noncommittal, shaking his head with a wry smile. Open the door directly, get in the car and say to Davis Barry: "To be honest, I lost a lot on this business." Hearing Vox''s resentful words, Devis Barry smiled. took out a cigarette from his pocket, handed it to Vaux and said: "Don''t worry, Mr. Vaux, Mr. Eddie, he will never treat his friends badly. The consignment of the goods this time was purely accidental. Your response is very timely, Mr. Eddie is very satisfied. I will definitely compensate you next time I have a chance. " Vox casually took the cigarette handed over by Devis Barry, held it in his mouth, and fumbled in his pocket for a while, but found no match. Seeing this, Devis Barry smiled, took out a match and lit it, and then brought the fire to him. Vox is not polite, he stretched his head over to light the cigarette, took a big puff, and then exhaled a long puff of cigarette: "I dare not think that I almost lost my old bottom in one transaction. There will be a next time, and it is estimated that I will risk my life. " Devis Barry couldn''t hear the resentment in Vox''s words. He took out a cigarette and lit it for himself. After taking a sip, he slowly opened his mouth and said: "Don''t blame brother for being greedy, my brother is usually a bodyguard and has no chance to go out. If the incident hadn''t happened suddenly this time, the boss would have no other people around him. It''s not my brother''s turn to make this trip. " Vox heard what Devis Barry said, and glanced at him strangely. What do you mean, talk to yourself? As the bodyguard next to the big shot, he must have mastered many secrets of the big shot. It is better to listen less to such a character who talks to himself. If you don''t do it well, you will get yourself locked up. So, Vaux directly took the initiative to say: "Mr. Davis, don''t worry, there are profits and losses in business. I was prepared. " Devis Barry took a serious look at Vaux, and then at the gangsters who were still outside waiting to unload. Shrugged and said: "Let''s go!" Vox doesn''t quite understand what kind of psychology this bald man is motivated by. Just now I felt like I was in control of everything, but after negotiating the price, I felt relieved. From his two short sentences, Vaux could hear it. The purpose of the other party coming out this time seems to be to gain benefits for himself. It wasn''t that Vaux came here to make trouble as he thought at first. Maybe this is one of the reasons why I was able to pass the level easily! From the fact that the other party was able to sell to themselves the secret that their boss had buried by their side without hesitation. Vox can also feel that the other party is not that loyal to his boss. This is more certain, Vox wants to stay away from the other party and his boss''s idea. After confirming that the other party is really taking money for work, and not going to do any inspection actions. Vox pushed the car door, got out of the car and came to Girard and said: "Bring back the good goods in our own warehouse, and ship the other goods directly. You bring someone on board to watch tonight. " This stunned Girard for a moment, but he quickly realized that the boss had settled the bald man. Gillard was overjoyed, and whispered to Vaux: "Then should we bring some more goods back?" Vox thought for a while, shook his head and said: "We are businessmen, we cannot control the quality of the goods, but the quantity must be accurate." Gillard nodded upon hearing the words, then turned his head and said to the people behind him: "Unloading and loading the ship, hurry up, finish the work early, and call it a day." The people standing next to the truck, of course, have no objection to this. Everyone started to do it one after another. Vox glanced at his group of men, wondering who the traitor was. His gaze stayed on Girard, the black man with an afro, not doubting him. On the contrary, because this guy is black, although he has been very active and diligent. is also very good at things, but it turns out that I am not very popular with myself. He doesn''t know many things, so now he is the one who can reassure Vaux the most. After thinking for a while, Vox said to Girard again: "Gillard, get ready and go deliver the goods with me tomorrow." Hearing Vox''s words, Girard was taken aback. You must know that participating in the delivery is considered participating in the business. It turned out that he could only run errands and deliver messages. Today, he was suddenly taken by the boss to participate in the delivery, which surprised him endlessly. quickly responded loudly: "Yes, boss!" The people around also heard Vox''s words, and they all looked at Girard enviously. After explaining to Girard, Vox waved to Clegg and others not far away, indicating that he could leave directly. Vasek quickly ran to the side of the car, opened the driver''s door and got in the car, and began to perform his duties as a driver. Clegg also came over and opened the door of the passenger seat. "Send us to the city that never sleeps." Vox promised to arrange a girl inspection for Devis Barry, and of course he would not break his promise. It was very quiet in the car along the way, and no one spoke. This made Vasek, who was driving, feel a little awkward. Craig is indifferent, after all, Clegg has always been taciturn. However, Clegg, who was sitting in the co-pilot seat, looked around from the corner of his eyes from time to time, looking at the silent bald man outside the window in the night. City That Never Sleeps is a luxury nightclub in downtown Recife. When Voxs convoy stopped at the gate of the city that never sleeps, the few people at the gate saw that they were gangsters in charge of watching the scene, and hurried forward and stood on both sides of the gate to welcome the arrival of the boss. (end of this chapter) Chapter 318: morgan calls Chapter 318 Morgan Calls Just as Vaux took Devis Barry to inspect the goods, Fang Lang, who was far away in Natal, suddenly received a telegram from the United States. The assistance plan has been launched, interview! Signed by Morgan. Fang Lang just took a look, and his heart was shocked. How can you not understand what this telegram means? This is the famous European recovery plan, also known as the Marshall Plan. But according to Fang Lang''s historical knowledge, the time when the plan officially started should be 1948! How did it start now in July 1946? However, the main goal of Fang Lang''s entry into the shipbuilding industry and the development of the container ship and container terminal business is for this day. This period is a period of rapid development of the world economy, and it is also a period when a series of world giants grow up. Although this plan had the purpose of deliberately targeting the Soviet Communist Party at the beginning of its launch, it did allow the European economy to recover and develop rapidly. It appears that Mr. Morgan is really starting to deliver on his promises as the Prudhoe Bay field in Alaska officially begins producing oil. Fang Lang now officially gained the friendship of the Morgan family. As the largest consortium in the United States, the Morgan family is also a giant in the financial industry. It is normal for the Morgan family to be the first to obtain this kind of inside information. What''s more, this so-called Marshall Plan was originally formulated for American capital to enter Europe. Although these aids are all in the form of funds, they are directly allocated to recipient countries. However, when the recipient country uses the funds, it must obtain the signature and consent of the special envoy appointed by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development. The special envoy was appointed by an American businessman with a certain reputation, which also determined that the flow of the funds could only go to the United States. To use this money, you have to use it to buy American goods. Companies like the Fangyuan Group are obviously not qualified to participate. That is to say, if all the products of Fangyuan Group want to be sold to Europe, they must be handled by American companies. This is the meaning of the existence of Global Trading Company. But with the friendship of the Morgan consortium, what Fang Lang wants is of course not just the profit from mere merchandise sales. This is an opportunity to enter the European capital circle. Fang Lang is absolutely impossible to miss. The only one under the Fangyuan Group that is capable of participating is the Brazilian Development Bank. But how to operate, or which step can be achieved, depends on the results of the interview with Morgan. Although Fang Lang is very busy with his official duties now, both the training of the Navy and the training of the Marine Corps are in full swing. However, he must also find time to go to the United States to meet and chat with Mr. Morgan. When Fang Lang called General Crook on his leave call, the general was having a hard time discussing the establishment of a military academy in cooperation with the army! "What? You''re going to America again? What''s going on this time? " As soon as he heard the bad tone on the other side of the phone, Fang Lang knew that General Crook must be in a bad mood today. You cannot ask for leave directly in the name of private affairs. After coughing twice, he said: "Your Excellency, it is not that I am going to the United States, but that we are going together." General Crook, as the Minister of the Navy of Brazil, is of course impossible to leave his job and go to the United States to meet his girlfriend like Fang Lang. Hearing that Fang Lang actually invited him to go to the United States with him, he couldn''t help being taken aback. Holding the receiver of the phone, he waved his hands to the few people in the office, motioning for everyone to go out first. Everyone looked at each other, curious as to who was on the other end of the phone. General Crook ignored everyone''s curiosity, and after everyone left and closed the office door, he said: "What''s the situation? Why do you want me to go, I can''t go abroad at will like you. I need approval from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs or the Ministry of Defense to go abroad. It''s not a big deal, I have no chance. " Hearing the words in the receiver, Fang Lang smiled, and understood that General Crook actually wanted to visit the United States. However, sometimes you can''t help yourself. As the Minister of the Navy, if he wants to go out, he must have a name that is enough to talk about the past. Otherwise, it may become a public tour and be impeached. Fang Lang picked up the tea on the table, took a sip, and said unhurriedly: "The thing is like this, isn''t my US military adviser, General Clark, entrusted by me to the US to recruit some professors from military academies? Yesterday he informed me that he had found several suitable candidates, and we need to arrange for someone to come and interview. Plus, he was very sympathetic to our idea of ??having a military academy. would like to invite us to visit a successful military academy in the United States. " General Crook was quite moved when he heard Fang Lang''s words. After all, the United States is now synonymous with the most powerful in the world. To have the opportunity to learn from the U.S. Army and visit the U.S. Military Academy, General Crook certainly wished for it. And Fang Lang said this casually on a whim. Of course, it is actually not difficult to arrange for Brazilian military officers to visit American military academies. If the Brazilian Navy Ministry has its own ideas, it can also submit an application directly to the corresponding military academy. With the current relationship between the United States and Brazil, such trivial matters are not worth mentioning at all. But the invitation sent by the U.S. Military Academy must have a different meaning. As for whether Fang Lang can promote the invitation from the U.S. Military Academy, it is of course not a big problem. After all, I have close relationships with many generals in the United States. As far as Fang Lang knows, Lieutenant General Amuro Chambers, commander of the U.S. Fourth Fleet he met in Italy, is now the principal of the U.S. Naval Academy. Brazil wants to open a naval school, and it is not a problem for the other party to send an invitation to visit. "What school is it?" General Crook asked expectantly. Fang Lang understood from this tone that General Crook really wanted to see the world in the United States. Thinking about the other party as the Minister of the Navy of Brazil, he has never participated in the Brazilian Expeditionary Force, so naturally he has no chance to go to the United States for training or training. It is also normal to be full of longing for the United States. As a subordinate, it is still very necessary to meet the needs of the chief, after all, you can''t care about your own waste! It is necessary to give the chief some benefits! "How''s the U.S. Naval Academy?" "What do you mean? There are other options? Boy wont be asking for leave for himself, worried that I wont approve it, and deliberately looking for a reason, right? " When General Crook heard Fang Lang''s tone, he felt that what the kid said earlier must have been said casually, and he directly spoke out. Fang Lang listened to General Crook''s questioning words, but he didn''t care, and said unhurriedly: "Of course you can choose! After all, what we want to build now is a military academy shared by the navy and the army. We were found by the navy, of course the Naval Academy. As for the army, if they want to go to West Point, it is not impossible! " General Crook obviously didn''t know much about the rules of the US military academy, and he was very moved when he heard Fang Lang''s words. After pondering for a long time, he said: "If possible, let''s conduct a survey of both military academies! Wait for me to talk to the army to see if I can persuade them to pay and let us go to the United States for inspection. As for you kid, just go and make a stand! " The meaning is very clear, you are responsible for the inspection of the military academy, and I approved it during the holidays. Fang Lang wanted this result, and of course he readily agreed. Soon, Fang Lang notified Fangyuan Group and the Brazilian Development Bank to organize a delegation to the United States. As for other things, all go to the back row. On July 6, 1946, Fang Lang led the Fangyuan Group delegation to New York, USA by plane. Although there were a lot of people this time, the actual itinerary was kept very secret. Only a few senior executives of Fangyuan Group and the Brazilian Development Bank knew of such an investigation. But no one knows the specific content of the investigation. It was Fang Lang''s assistant, Ms. Ophelia Berger, who picked up the plane at the airport. In order to keep a low profile as much as possible, Fang Lang and others did not live in the hotel this time. Instead, I rented a not-so-small villa in Manhattan, New York. That night, under the protection of the guards, Fang Lang went to the Morgan family''s estate in Manhattan. "Haha Fang, your speed is really fast." Morgan came out to welcome him very enthusiastically. This is Fang Lang''s first visit to Morgan''s home, which marks that the relationship between the two has entered a new stage. After Fang Lang handed over a beautiful gift, he shook hands and hugged Mr. Morgan. smiled and said: "No way, the news Mr. Morgan brought me is really exciting." The two walked into Morgan''s manor talking and laughing all the way. This manor was obviously not the kind of resplendent and magnificent. But there is a sense of historical precipitation. From the portraits of the characters hanging on the wall, we can see how difficult it is for the Morgan family to make it to today. This is the result of the joint efforts of many generations. Walking through the living room and the promenade, Fang Lang, led by Morgan, came to a room with double doors. Morgan stepped forward and opened the door. I thought it was just a secret reception room to facilitate communication between the two. As a result, Fang Lang walked into the room only to find that there were two other people inside. One is an older man with gray hair, but he is in good spirits. With a monocle in his left eye, he is seriously looking at a piece of information in his hand. Another man who looked about the same age as Morgan, with a mustache, looked very dignified. As the door opened, both of them looked up at Fang Lang at the door. Fang Lang smiled at the two of them with a smile, and nodded. Morgan patted Fang Lang on the shoulder, pointed to the gray-haired old man and said: "This is the current patriarch of our Morgan family, Mr. Charles Morgan." After speaking, he pointed to the majestic man on the other side and said: "This is the chairman of the board of directors of our Morgan company, Mr. Harken Morgan." Pointing at the two of them again, Fang Lang said: "This is the Mr. Fang Lang I told you about." Fang Lang understood that the two in front of him were the real power holders of the Morgan family, and his friend Eli Morgan was the chairman of Morgan Stanley Bank. Although everyone belongs to the Morgan consortium, they certainly do not have as much voice as these two. Now Avery Morgan introduces himself to the real power man in the Morgan consortium, apparently as part of the so-called Morgan family friendship. For the person in power of a large consortium like the Morgan family, a young man like Fang Lang must of course show enough respect. So, after Mr. Morgan introduced himself to everyone, Fang Lang took the initiative to shake hands with the two of them. For Fang Lang, being able to meet the two speakers of the Morgan family here shows that the Morgan family still attaches great importance to this young man. After everyone took their seats, Morgan rang the bell next to the seat, and a man who looked like a butler opened the door and walked in. Morgan directly said to the housekeeper: "Prepare us some black tea, and you can retire." The butler nodded politely to everyone, then turned around and asked the servant to bring a pot of black tea. Bending down to signal to everyone, he turned around and closed the door from the outside. (end of this chapter) Chapter 319: Intrigue Chapter 319 Intrigue After there were no outsiders in the room, Avery Morgan said directly: "Fang, besides discussing specific cooperation content, I invite you here this time. We mainly want to hear, you, the person who first proposed the European aid plan, what specific ideas do you have? " Fang Lang was startled by these words at the beginning. When did the European aid plan become my first proposal? Didnt I tell you that after the Prudhoe Bay oil field successfully produced oil, if the United States starts to aid Europe, will it bring me to make a fortune? Seeing that the three people in the room were all looking at him with scorching eyes, Fang Lang looked at Ellie Morgan with a shocked expression and said: "Mr. Morgan, don''t make such a joke. When did I become the first to propose a European aid plan. I just got a little wind. Let you make a fortune, don''t forget your friends. " Before Ellie Morgan could continue to speak, the chairman of the board of directors of Morgan Corporation, Harken Morgan, had already smiled and said: "Haha, Mr. Fang, isn''t it too early for you to get wind of it! When Jr. Morgan invested in your global shipbuilding, You require all the shipyards authorized to produce container cargo ships to provide all the output in the first three years for your global shipping. Isn''t it just for this moment? " Fang Lang didn''t expect that the other party would be suspicious because he took all the ship orders, and he had a plan long ago. But it is impossible for Fang Lang to admit this kind of thing. After all, it is impossible for me to tell them that I am a prophet! Just when Fang Lang was about to make three consecutive denials, he suddenly felt something was wrong! I was invited by you this time to discuss cooperation. You sing and ask the bottom line, dont you want to master the rhythm of the negotiation? Looking at the three members of the Morgan family sitting in the room, he was looking at himself alone. This **** thing is too insignificant! What about the Morgan family friendship? You are three against one, and you are still playing tricks, give me a blow. Isn''t this bullying? No, I cant follow your rhythm, I want to disrupt your rhythm. After thinking about it, Fang Lang coughed twice, and said in a solemn and deep voice: "Mr. Morgan, do you have a dream?" At this time, Martin Luther King''s "I Have a Dream" speech has not yet begun. The three of them were taken aback when they heard Fang Lang''s question. After looking at each other for unknown reasons, Halken Morgan nodded with a smile and said: Of course, my dream is to be an artist. Fang Lang looked at the other party''s expression, and said with admiration: "Your dream is really big. Unfortunately, I am a layman, My dream is to become the world''s shipping king one day. " Harken Morgan looked at Fang Lang with an expression of admiration and looked at himself, wishing to splash the black tea in his hand on the other''s face. This is to tell myself and others that the reason he wants these ships is to make himself the person with the most ships in the world. In order to make a few people believe what he said, Fang Lang continued to brag: In order to fulfill my dream, I often go to the port of Santos near my home to watch the ships coming in and out. I imagine that one day, the entire pier will be full of my own boats. In order to fulfill my dream, I sneaked to the port to learn sailing knowledge from those old captains. So, when I became the captain of the expeditionary force transport ship, this idea became even more out of control. As a transport ship captain, I found out that bulk carrier transport is really inefficient. A lot of time was wasted in the process of loading and unloading goods at the terminal. Therefore, I used my spare time to design a brand new cargo ship, which is a container cargo ship. Maybe many people don''t like my idea. But, now it turns out I was right, no? " At first, they thought that Fang Lang was just looking for a reason, the three of them talking nonsense. After hearing Fang Lang''s story, he couldn''t help but believe Fang Lang''s words. Because, many things in this story are what they can understand, Fang Lang''s personal experience. Originally, I wanted to find out Fang Lang''s bottom, but I didn''t expect to be educated severely by an inspirational story! The current patriarch of the Morgan family, Charles Morgan, applauded first, and the other two quickly followed. Seeing that the three of them applauded him, Fang Lang smiled shyly and said: "Although, now my global shipping has a capacity of more than five million tons. But it is still too far away from the goal of the ship king in my world. So, I will persevere and make my dreams come true. " These words made Charles Morgan cough dryly, and glared at Halken Morgan, who was a little stunned. gave Avery Morgan a wink. Avery Morgan understood, coughed twice and said: "Ahem! Fang, everyone understands. If you can predict the European aid plan in advance, you must have prepared in advance. Whether your dream of the ship king is true or not, But now your shipping company, does become the most important part. This is a plan jointly promoted by major consortiums in the United States. So, it is impossible for you to eat all the shipping profits, you know what I mean? " Avery Morgan speaks frankly, and the meaning is very clear. Such a large business cannot be swallowed by your Global Group alone. You want whatever you want, and take out a part of the benefits to distribute to others. Although Fang Lang understood that what Ellie Morgan said was true, But it was impossible for Fang Lang to agree to ask him to share part of his cake with others so easily. He never thought that he could eat this cake by himself. After all, the number of fleets in his hands is far from being able to monopolize shipping. "Impossible! I only have some new types of container ships in my hand. The current main shipping force is not us. " Avery Morgan obviously knew what Fang Lang meant, so he didn''t tell him what to say later, so he interrupted directly: "We know that the victory round is the main force, but your fleet is the future, isn''t it? More importantly, you signed all the new ships for the next three years to your name. This makes everyone very dissatisfied. do you understand me? " There was nothing wrong with saying this, Fang Lang felt aggrieved in his heart. I understand that this is definitely not the opinion of the Morgan family. If I can''t give up part of the benefits, Someone may want to attack their own shipping company. But it is obviously impossible to directly give up one''s own interests in this way. "What do you want?" Since everyone has opened the skylight to speak frankly, there is no need for Fang Lang to hide. asked directly. Hearing Fang Lang''s straightforward words, the three people in the room looked at each other, with the corners of their mouths slightly upturned. This time, the chairman of Morgan Corporation, Harken Morgan, said: "Forty-nine percent of the shipping company''s shares." When the lion opened his mouth, Fang Lang''s eyelids twitched in anger. As for the friendship of the Morgan family, your friendship is a friend who only cheats you, isnt it? Fortunately, he is also a person who has seen the world now, and he glanced at the three people in the room expressionlessly. Except for Elle Morgan''s slightly erratic eyes, the other two took it for granted. Suppressing the anger in his heart, Fang Lang continued in a flat tone: "What can I get?" The three members of the Morgan family looked at each other, secretly surprised. Even Eli Morgan didn''t expect that Fang Lang would be so straightforward. Make the decision to exchange benefits directly without hesitation. Harken Morgan, as the chairman of Morgan, has a very large decision-making power in this matter. But as a capitalist, he is undoubtedly very greedy. So, I don''t want to pay anything. smiled and said: "What are the chances of Universal joining the European recovery plan?" Fang Lang''s eyes froze, he didn''t expect the other party to be so greedy. Its just asking for a lot of money and paying back the money on the ground. Now that everyone is negotiating a deal, of course we must allow others to ask for a price. No matter how outrageous the price offered by others is, at least it shows that the other party has transaction intentions. But Fang Lang didn''t want to bargain with them here, after all, there were three members of the Morgan family in this room, and he only had one. Therefore, it is necessary to cut the mess quickly and not fall into endless negotiations. Glancing at Avery Morgan, a mocking smile leaked from the corner of Fang Lang''s mouth. With some disdain in his eyes, he said: "I thought that I really gained the friendship of the Morgan family now, It seems that I was too naive. " After finishing speaking, he stood up directly, bowed his hands to the three of them, and prepared to leave. Seeing his movement, the three of them did not move until Fang Lang walked to the door and twisted the doorknob. As the patriarch, Charles Morgan spoke slowly. Fang, our Morgan family are investment bankers, Since Jr. Morgan chooses to believe in you and invest in you. And you did live up to expectations, giving a return on investment that exceeded our expectations. We will naturally abide by our agreement. Please believe that the friendship of our Morgan family is not empty words. " Fang Lang didn''t really want to leave at first, and everyone sitting here understood this. Everyone is a thousand-year-old fox, acting out a Liaozhai is to break the deadlock. Actually, Fang Lang already had what he wanted in his mind. Turning his head to look at Charles Morgan, Fang Lang said word by word: "Since the Morgan family''s friendship is not empty talk. Please don''t make unnecessary temptations. We can be more honest. " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Avery Morgan stood up with a smile and pulled Fang Lang up, letting him sit back in the seat. Patted Fang Lang on the shoulder and said: "Fang, we are friends, if you have any needs, you can directly mention them, if we can meet them. The Morgan family will definitely not be stingy. " Fang Lang also took advantage of the trend and sat back to his original position. As if he was not the one who left the meeting angrily just now, he glanced at the three of them with a smile and said: "My request is very simple. First of all, I want my Brazilian Development Bank to have the opportunity to enter the European financial industry. Second, I want to use the 49% of the global shipping, In exchange for the same proportion of shares in an insurance company under the Morgan consortium. " Fang Lang''s words made the three of them frown. The Morgan family was born in finance. How could he not understand Fang Lang''s ambition. The second request is nothing to the Morgan consortium. Because there are many insurance companies controlled by the Morgan consortium, making Fang Lang a major shareholder of one of the companies is not a matter at all for the Morgan family. But the first request is a bit difficult to handle. This is the meat in the mouth of the Morgan consortium! Originally, the Morgan consortium wanted to use the European aid plan to land in Europe and acquire several banks in Europe. Then, unknowingly, they used bank funds to invest and hold some important industries. This will not make the funds of the Morgan consortium in Europe particularly conspicuous. It can also achieve the purpose of holding core assets in Europe. As for wanting to acquire the shares of the global shipping company, compared with this goal, it is not worth mentioning at all. (end of this chapter) Chapter 320: candid Chapter 320 Honesty Harken Morgan looked at Fang Lang with a ghostly expression on his face. He never imagined that the twenty-two or three-year-old young Chinese in front of him would have such keen eyesight. directly focused on the real benefits of this European aid plan. Charles Morgan laughed out loud after hearing Fang Lang''s words. "Hahaha good, good, very good! Fang, you are the most discerning young man I have ever met. No wonder you can achieve so much at such a young age. That little pond in Brazil is not for you. Do you want to think about joining our Morgan family. All the outstanding girls in my Morgan family, you can choose. After you marry our Morgan family, I can hand over one of our Morgan family properties to you to take care of. how? " Avery Morgan and Halken Morgan looked at their patriarch in shock. Didn''t expect him to give Fang Lang such a high evaluation. But after thinking about it, the two of them are relieved. After all, the other party is only 22 years old, and he has already achieved what he is today. This is beyond their reach at this age. I dont even want to admire it. If a genius like Fang Lang can be included in the Morgan family, there will definitely be only benefits and no harm to the development of the entire family. After Fang Lang listened to Charles Morgan''s words, he almost spit out the black tea he just drank in his mouth. What''s the meaning? This is to recruit me to be my son-in-law! If you had said that earlier, wouldnt I not have to work hard? But now that I have established myself, who would go to your house to be my son-in-law! But if there is soft rice that can be fed for two bites, Fang Lang is still happy to accept it. "Haha, Mr. Patriarch is over the top. I am a soldier, so my main energy must be devoted to the construction of my own army. As for business, it is just to make the living environment at home better. And as a Chinese, only in a small pond like Brazil can I have more autonomy, right? If Mr. Patriarch really likes my ability, We can also promote the common development of our two families through closer cooperation! " Charles Morgan was not surprised by Fang Lang''s refusal. True beasts of prey eat only what they have caught. Smiled, Charles Morgan did not continue the topic of letting Fang Lang enter the European financial market, Instead, he asked Fang Lang about another request. "I can understand that you want to enter the European financial market, But why would you want a stake in an insurance company? Can you tell me, which insurance company under our consortium are you interested in? Prudent Life Insurance, or New York Life Insurance. These companies are not worth as much as your worldwide shipping. I do not quite understand. " Charles Morgan didn''t do anything strict at all, and directly asked the doubts in his heart. Instead of trying to test like Halken Morgan. In fact, Fang Lang prefers this method of communication. is more direct and efficient. "Haha. To be honest, Mr. Patriarch, My condition is just an additional condition. Yes or no question does not matter! It''s just me who just recently needed some professional help with insurance, So, this point was brought up. " Fang Lang spread his hands very frankly. Fang Lang really didn''t lie this time. After all, it was very difficult for him to provide medical insurance for his company''s workers in Brazil. Mr. Yumai from Yumai Insurance Company said that he had to go back and think about it. But in the end, there was still no follow-up, obviously unwilling to accept this business. After thinking about it again and again, Fang Lang simply stopped having expectations of him, and was about to start anew. But the insurance company is a relatively professional company. Fang Lang really doesn''t know much about this industry, so it''s fine to plan to acquire or take a stake in an insurance company. Since I came to the United States this time, and came to the Morgan family who started from finance. Of course, just go with the flow and put forward your own needs. But everyone in the room obviously didn''t believe Fang Lang''s words. They all looked at Fang Lang with suspicious expressions. Fang Lang is also very depressed, why does everyone believe the truth! "Mr. Morgan, if you really treat me as a friend, is also willing to let me participate in this European aid plan. Then I think we can be more honest. I am not a person who likes to eat alone, so I am very willing to put my interests on the bright side. I only want to belong to the part that I deserve. I don''t covet anything that belongs to the Morgan family. This time I came to the United States and brought my management team of the Brazilian Development Bank, So, I really want to take this rare opportunity to enter the European financial market, By the way, also invest in some high-quality companies. As for how to enter, I initially have two plans, First of all, I will give up some of the global shipping shares you want in exchange for your support for my direct entry into the European market. In addition, my Brazilian Development Bank can also invest in a joint venture with your Morgan consortium to establish a company that focuses on investing in the European market. I don''t mind how much the shares are. However, I hope that I can invest in some European industries through the channel of this company. How many of you can accept this? " After listening to Fang Lang''s words, the three of them looked at each other, but none of them took the initiative to speak. Fang Lang was not in a hurry either, he knew that his request must have been beyond the other party''s expectations. However, it is by no means an unacceptable excessive requirement. The other party must have made preparations before inviting him over. "Fang, your honesty surprised us. We can understand your desire to enter the European market. However, neither of your solutions is suitable. It''s not that we don''t want to bring you along. Rather, whether you directly enter the European market with the Brazilian Development Bank, or you enter through a joint venture with us. In the case of all American capital, it will be particularly conspicuous. Let me give you a suggestion, you can buy a small bank in the United States in the name of Universal Group, Then, this bank came forward to cooperate with Morgan to set up an investment development bank. This can dilute the color of your Brazilian capital. " Finally, Charles Morgan proposed a new plan on behalf of the Morgan family. Following what the other party said, Fang Lang understood what the other party meant. It is clear that it is not impossible to get a share of this plan. However, only American capital. Even if you are wearing the skin of American capital, you must ensure this. What about the free economy? It''s not that Fang Lang didn''t think about it, instead of cooperating with the Morgan family, he went to invest in Europe alone. I still dont believe that I have invested a lot of money in the past, and some people dont want it. But after thinking about it, I gave up. After all, what I want is not only to make money, but what I really want is the opportunity to invest in some high-quality European assets. And there are many high-quality assets, and you cant participate in a share if you have money. As for the new plan given by the other party, it doesn''t actually have any impact. It is just to establish a bank in the United States that is regulated by the United States. "Okay, if it''s just a matter of toning down the traces of the Brazilian capital, I''m fine with that. I dont know the shares of the new bank, we distribute them according to the proportion of capital contribution. Or how to distribute. " Fang Lang finally chose to cut through the mess quickly, and quickly confirmed the main framework, and let the company''s professionals negotiate slowly. The current situation makes Fang Lang feel very passive. Everyone was relieved to see Fang Lang nodding in agreement without hesitation. Harken Morgan answered directly: "Fang, the new bank can have your Global Group as the major shareholder, Our Morgan consortium has a symbolic stake in this bank, and then you can have this admission ticket. But there is one thing I wish we could clarify in advance. That is in the European market, I hope you can stand on the same front with us. " Fang Lang looked at Harken Morgan in surprise, not understanding why he disagreed with Charles Morgan. If it is according to Halken Morgan''s meaning, then Fang Lang will obviously have greater autonomy. Although Charles Morgan said earlier that he wanted to play with Fang Lang, But it is obvious that Fang Lang will not be given much freedom. Turned his head and looked at Charles Morgan and Avery Morgan on the other side, Seeing the faces of the two, there was no extra expression. Obviously, in this matter, the Morgan family agreed to bring Fang Lang to play together. But everyone has expected how to play the game. Harken Morgan''s plan did not break through the bottom line of the Morgan family. Fang Lang knows the position of the United States in the world economy in the next few decades, and he never thought of becoming an enemy of the United States. So, I agreed directly: "Mr. Morgan, please rest assured! I will not do anything to betray my friends. " "Very well, so about the global shipping shares, I can exchange the shares of an insurance company in equal value according to your request. As for the specific insurance company you want to exchange for shares, it is up to you to decide. We will provide you with a detailed list later for you to choose. I dont know if you are satisfied with this cooperation plan? " Harken Morgan''s sudden change made Fang Lang a little overwhelmed. He didn''t understand why the other party who was a little aggressive just now became so talkative? But it is obviously a good thing for him, and he has no reason to refuse. Regardless of whether the other party will make any other requests later, Fang Lang must first get the benefits in his hands before talking. Of course, such a cooperation plan makes me really feel the friendship of the Morgan family. Avery Morgan and Charles Morgan also looked at Harken Morgan in surprise. I don''t quite understand why he, who was the last person who was reluctant to take the cake, suddenly became so talkative. Fang Lang also noticed the expressions of the other two. He is also curious about what kind of request Halken Morgan will make next. After all, I have given myself such a great benefit, it is impossible not to get something from myself. So, he was also quietly waiting for Harken to make his request. Seeing that the three people in the room were all looking at him, as if they were waiting for his next words. Harken Morgan laughed and said: "Everyone, don''t look at me with this expression. I just think the patriarch is right, Fang is really the most potential genius I have ever seen. The investment we give to Fang today will surely yield greater returns in the near future! " Fang Lang was taken aback by this statement. He never expected that the other party would say such a sentence suddenly. On the other hand, Eli Morgan laughed loudly and said: "Haha. I have long said that Fang is a genius, See how right I was investing in Universal Petroleum. It should have been like this a long time ago, maybe our European aid plan this time, with Fang''s participation, can get more benefits! " (end of this chapter) Chapter 321: Chapter 321 Hearing Ellie Morgan''s words, Fang Lang understood. Although I cooperated with Avery Morgan, it brought him a huge return on investment. But the friendship he promised himself to the Morgan family is obviously not something he can decide on his own. Maybe today''s negotiation on the European aid plan is just an interview. The patriarch of the Morgan family and the chairman of the Morgan company personally interviewed himself to see if he was really qualified to be a friend of the Morgan family. Halken Morgan''s original attitude was affirmative, that is, he was not willing to accept his side. As for Charles Morgan''s attitude, Fang Lang couldn''t confirm it. But now it seems that the effect of this meeting is still very good, at least I should have passed the interview. became friends with the Morgan family. In the future, when investing in the United States and Europe, not only will you not have to worry about being deliberately targeted, but you may also get a lot of help from the Morgan family. As a Chinese, Fang Lang, who was favored by others, originally wanted to be humble. However, thinking that Europeans and Americans dont like this, so I said directly: I am honored to be friends with the Morgan family. Believe me, your friendship will definitely be rewarded in excess! " The three of them looked at each other and laughed loudly. The topics of the next few people began to become more specific. After being explained by several members of the Morgan family, Fang Lang realized that the so-called European aid plan had not actually been proposed yet. However, several major consortiums in the United States have unified their opinions and began to advance silently. Only wait for the distribution of benefits between the various consortiums to reach an agreement, and then they can move forward quickly. The reason why Fang Lang was notified in advance to come to negotiate is to clarify Fang Lang''s goal and add Fang Lang''s interests to the interests of the Morgan consortium. What Fang Lang didn''t expect was that the time when the plan actually started to be implemented was not 1948, which Fang Lang learned from history. According to Halken Morgan, former British Prime Minister Winston Churchill proposed to President Truman a plan to curb the continued development of the Soviet Communist Party as soon as he delivered the important "Iron Curtain Speech" in the United States. The focus is to help the frontline Greece and Turkey resist the Soviet Communist Party. But at that time, President Truman had not communicated and coordinated with the staff team on this matter, so he did not directly agree to Churchill. After Churchill returned to the UK, he still used his influence in the UK to provide certain assistance to Greece and Turkey. It''s a pity that Britain is no longer the original empire on which the sun never sets. The British government, which has just experienced the devastation of the world war, simply can''t take care of itself. The support that can be provided to these two countries is also very limited. So, Britain found the United States again, hoping that the United States can help. This has also accelerated the progress of major US consortiums in determining the European aid plan. Since the agreement is about aid, of course it is impossible to divide up the benefits as Fang Lang negotiated with the Morgan family. Instead, it is necessary to solve the problem of food and clothing for the citizens of the recipient countries and restore the economy of the recipient countries. Rehabilitation of roads, buildings, industries, agriculture, commerce, etc. damaged due to war. To put it simply, the U.S. government uses funds from the treasury to purchase goods from the United States and ship them to European countries for support. The money in the treasury must be the taxes paid by Americans. Therefore, the U.S. government estimates that this plan will not be accepted by the American people. When Marshall gave a speech, in order to avoid the attention of American newspapers on the speech, no American reporters were invited to the speech site. Even Truman deliberately held a press conference on the same day to divert the attention of the domestic media. But for the major financial groups, this is indeed a rare feast. Just aiding European countries on the bright side, the goods that need to be purchased can make the American consortium full. What''s more, this plan lasts for one fiscal year, that is to say, within four years, the products produced by everyone don''t have to worry about sales at all. But this is only for ordinary people to see. And what is the real plan? We can see it from the mission announced by the later established Economic Cooperation Administration. The main contents include: promoting European economic progress, promoting the development of European production, providing support for the issuance of currencies in European countries, and promoting international trade. Of course, there is also a more secret purpose, which is to contain the expansion of the Soviet Communist Party in Europe. The so-called promotion of European economic progress and the promotion of European production development must mean a large amount of investment in Europe. This is the clarion call for American capital to enter Europe. And to provide support for the currency issuance of European countries, this purpose is even more obvious. The easiest and most direct way to control a country''s economy is, of course, to control the country''s currency issuance! As for promoting international trade, of course it is to make Europe a market for the United States and sell more goods from the United States to Europe. So, this so-called European development plan is actually a sugar-coated projectile. But this sugar coating is something that Europe cannot refuse. After two consecutive days of closed-door talks between Fang Lang and the Morgan family. Fang Lang has completely hitched a ride with the Morgan family. Soon, with the support of the Brazil Development Bank team and the help of the Morgan family, Global Group acquired three small regional banks in the United States. There are many such local banks in the United States. As a small emerging consortium in the United States, Universal Group did not take much trouble to acquire them. After the integration, the new bank has directly become a medium-sized bank with more than 60 outlets in the United States. Immediately afterwards, Morgan announced that it would take a stake in this little-known bank, becoming the second largest shareholder of the bank, owning 30% of the bank''s shares. The bank officially changed its name to Global Morgan Bank. Then, with the help of J.P. Morgan & Co., the company began to expand rapidly. By the end of 1946, branches had been opened in European countries such as Britain, France, Germany, and Italy. Of course also opened a branch in Sao Paulo, Brazil. At the same time, the Global Shipping Company under the Universal Group transferred 35% of the shares to Morgan. The Morgan Company did not pay cash to the Universal Shipping Company, but acquired a 20% stake in Allstate Insurance Company, which was established in 1931, for the Universal Group through its own channels. Let Universal Group become the third shareholder of Allstate Insurance Company. Immediately after the impetus of Global Group, Allstate Insurance Co., Ltd. and the Brazilian Development Bank jointly established a Brazilian Allstate Insurance Branch in Brazil. Immediately afterwards, with the help of Global Group and Global Morgan Bank, Nice Company tore a hole in the headquarters of Bunge Corporation, the largest grain import and export enterprise in the United States. Established the American branch of Nice Company. The purpose of this company''s establishment is of course to export the people''s livelihood materials in the European support plan. Bunge is very vigilant against the nice company that drives itself out of South America. But the entry of Nice Company this time has the shadow of the Morgan consortium behind it. Bunge is not good at using some excessive means, and can only suppress it through some normal commercial competition. Nice Company, which has the support of the entire Brazilian agriculture, is obviously not afraid of normal commercial competition. So, Nice company quickly gained a firm foothold in the United States. Originally, this was just a chess piece that Fang Lang dropped when he exported grain, oil, sugar and wine and other livelihood materials to Europe. Unexpectedly, it made government officials in Brazil very excited. The Social Democratic Party supported by the Nice Company has gained even more prestige. Fang Lang, who had a huge harvest in the United States, did not return to China immediately. After all, this visit to the United States was nominally to give a frontier to the construction of a military academy in Brazil. So, after Fang Lang picked up Lilith in Boston, he started his inspection tour of the US Military Academy. As for whether this investigation is serious, it is not enough for outsiders to know. Brazil, Natal Naval Base Logistics Division II Office. "Sir, there is a telegram from Fernando de Noronha." A telegrapher handed a folder to section chief Sirio Leitch. Sirio Leitch nodded, took the folder from the telegraph operator and opened it casually. The above information made Sirio Leitch''s eyes shine, and he finally found an important person. I saw the telegram read: After investigation, there are 3,000 Japanese people on the island, and the Japanese leader is named Mizuno Shingi. The specific origin is yet to be investigated. In the past few days, the intelligence agents who have sneaked into the island will send over some intelligence detected that day every day. Now, the Second Division of the Intelligence Department has a certain understanding of the various forces on the Fernando de Noronha Islands. "Three thousand people? This is not a small number, it exceeds the sum of the other people! It seems that these **** Japanese have a lot of ambitions! " After closing the telegram in his hand, he turned to the operator and said: "Call back, arms are coming to the island, please pay attention to safety!" "Yes, sir!" After taking notes, the radio operator stood at attention and saluted, then turned and left. Sirio Leitch recalled carefully, the Japanese name Mizuno Xinyi, I always feel like I heard it somewhere. Leaning on the table, closing his eyes and meditating. Quickly slapped his thigh, thinking of where he had heard of this name. Isnt this the Japanese who was caught illegally mining when General Fang took over Natal and carried out the plan to clear the Japanese? This person is not dead, what''s the matter? "Come here, let the police station send all the files of Japanese deported from Natal." Sirio Leitch directly ordered his subordinates to say. The current Deputy Director of the Natal Police Department was originally from the Second Division of the Logistics Department. So, if you want to transfer a file from the police station, don''t take it too easy. More than 20 minutes later, an agent from the Second Division entered Sirio Reich''s office with a thick file. Sirio Leitch took it and counted it carefully, and there were more than 400 copies. And the file on the top of it is Mizuno Shinichi. Pull out this file and check it carefully. It doesnt matter if you dont read it. When you see Sirio Reich, you will be so angry that you will be smoked from all seven orifices. The file clearly stated that the charge was illegal mining of national mineral resources, the circumstances were serious, and he was sentenced to life imprisonment. But behind it came the signed opinion of Bill Yakub, the deputy chief of the police station. Impressively wrote a fine of 10,000 Cruzeiros, and then deported. No need to ask, Sirio Leitch can guess that this Bill Yakub must have received a lot of benefits. Otherwise, even if it is to be deported, it is impossible to punish only 10,000 Cruzeiros. With this amount of money, at most one thief can be released on bail, but the one released now is a serious criminal who was sentenced to life imprisonment. Blind people can see that there is a problem here. "Bill Jacob, this bastard, really deserves death! To be so bold. " Then, Sirio Reich opened several files in succession. After opening, all of them are signed by Bill Yakub, and everyone has the same solution. Looking at Sirio Reich, he felt something was wrong. . (end of this chapter) Chapter 322: police club Chapter 322 Police Club If Shinyi Mizuno is the only one who has such an opinion, it must be Bill Yakubu who has embezzled and accepted bribes. But there are many ordinary Japanese people behind, who are also fined 10,000 Cruzeiro and then deported. This is a bit strange. Sirio Leitch quickly thought of a possibility, could Bill Yakub also belong to the Eddie family? Since Fang Lang told Sirio Leitch about the existence of the Eddie family. He paid special attention to this family with deep roots in the Ministry of Justice and the police system. Brazil''s police system was officially established in 1930, and before that, the main responsibilities of the Brazilian police had nothing to do with maintaining social order. Their more work is to suppress the local revolutionary movement in the political struggle. The Eddie family is a political family that rose in the suppression of the revolutionary movement. Credo Eddy, who originally served as the Deputy Minister of Justice, was the Chief of Police before the reorganization before he served as the Deputy Minister of Justice. It can be said that the entire Brazilian police system is full of his protgs. Credo Eddie''s order is more effective than the police headquarters'' documents in some places. According to the recent investigation by Sirio Reich, although Credo Eddie has passed away. But their family''s influence in the police system has not declined. Although the local police chief is appointed by the elected mayor or governor. Those who really hold the real power are generally the deputy directors in charge of specific work. And these people are almost the backbone of the old police system before the reorganization. Newly joined police officers, if they want to be reused, they must move closer to these backbone forces. Otherwise, no matter how hard you work, you can only serve as a grassroots police officer, with no hope of promotion. Think of the action led by the Eddie family to provide arms to the Japanese on the island. Combined with the documents he saw now, Sirio Reich became more and more certain that the Eddie family must have some connection with the Japanese. It''s just that he still can''t figure it out. As for why the Eddie family would kill each other, Sirio Reich also had some guesses in his heart. Sirio Leitch, who had a direction in his heart, didn''t hesitate, and directly picked up the phone on the table. "Silva Carpenter, this is Cyrio Reich." "After get off work today, you quietly go back to the second department. There are some things that need to be discussed face to face." "Remember to keep it secret, don''t let the police station find out." Silva Carpenter is the second division of the Logistics Department, the deputy director of the Natal Police Department. If you want to understand the situation inside the police station, of course you can learn more clearly from the insiders of the police station. That night, it was dark. Silva Carpenter was only in casual clothes, and he appeared in the office of the Second Division of the Logistics Department at the naval base. "Section Chief, is there any task that I need to perform?" Sirio Leitch carefully looked at the subordinate in front of him. He was 1.75 meters tall and had a very strong figure. The lips are thicker and the face is clean-shaven. Wearing a black suit, holding a black top hat in his hand. was looking at himself expectantly. Sirio Leitch smiled, pointed to the reception area in the office, motioned for the other party to sit down and said. Did not answer the other party''s question, but asked like a joke among old friends: "Silva, how does it feel to be the deputy police chief?" Silva Carpenter is Sirio Leitch''s old subordinate, and he still knows his superior very well. Although I don''t know, the purpose of the other party recruiting me here today. However, since you want to keep it secret, you must also pay attention to avoiding the people in the police station, it is definitely not a simple greeting. After thinking about it, he answered honestly: "It feels good, the entire Natal police station has been cleaned up of the Yakub department, basically starting from scratch. In addition, all the police officers were stuffed into the base for training. There has been a great improvement in observing discipline from the original. My identity is very clear to Director Yosofah Bull, so he fully supports my work. The current security situation in Natal is very different from the original one. " These are real results, he has been reporting them all the time, and Sirio Leitch must be clear about them. Silva Carpenter also doesn''t understand why he is asking these questions today. "Then at work, do you feel any resistance? Or have you encountered other constraints. " These words made Silva Carpenter confused, and he didn''t know how to answer for a moment. After thinking for a long time, I was still a little confused and said: "It doesn''t seem to be there! At least not in the Natal Police Department. Sir, what is it, can you give me some hints? " Sirio Leitch carefully checked the other party''s previous reaction, and found that what the other party said did not seem to be a lie. I was a little unclear for a while, whether I was thinking too much. He still trusts his subordinate, otherwise he would not have recommended him to the Natal Police Station. But he couldn''t tell his subordinates about the Eddie family. After all, this is the enemy of Your Excellency the General. But the other party doesn''t know yet, the general has already discovered the existence of the other party. As an intelligence officer, he knows very well that the later the other party discovers that he is exposed, the better their actions will be. So, he has to keep it a secret from everyone. Unless the general authorizes him to share this information with others. Picking up a teacup from the coffee table in front of him, and making Silva a cup of tea, Sirio Reich continued to ask calmly: "Have you had contact with colleagues from other police stations?" At this time, Silva Carpenter has already seen some problems from Sirio Leitch''s question. Obviously, my chief is suspicious, and there is something wrong with the people in the police system. Since this is the case, he doesn''t think too much, and just report everything he knows truthfully. I thought about the colleagues in other police stations I met after I became the deputy chief of the Natal Police Department. He said uncertainly: "I have contacted colleagues in other police stations a few times, and I haven''t found anything unusual. but" Looking at Silva''s expression, Sirio Leitch understood that the other party had a certain guess about his goal. "But what?" "However, I heard from people in the police station that there seems to be a police club in the police headquarters, which organizes two deputy director-level rallies every year. I heard that there was one in Rio de Janeiro earlier this year, but in our entire Natal Police Department, no one was invited. " Silva Carpenter said the abnormal situation he thought of. When Sirio Leitch heard this, his eyes flashed, and he quickly confirmed: "Is the news true?" "I''m pretty sure it was brought up by a drunken old sheriff at one of our bureau''s internal meetings. It seems that every time in the past, Bill Yacoub went to this rally. Others have not participated in it, and they don''t know the specific content of the rally. " Hearing this, Sirio Reich was certain in his heart that this so-called police club might be the organization that the Eddie family has won over the entire Brazilian police system. Only their own people can participate. Thinking of this, Sirio Leitch couldn''t help laughing. They seemed to strictly exclude all police stations that were not their own. It saved myself a lot of trouble. Now, as long as you know which policemen are members of this club, you can basically be sure that those people are members of the Eddie family in the police system. Sirio Leitch got up straight away, paced back and forth in the office, and after walking a few times, finally made up his mind, turned to Cuerva Carpenter and said in a serious tone: "In that case, Ensign Silva Carpenter. Now I order. " Hearing the officer call out his name in a serious tone, Silva Carpenter got up directly and stood at attention. "It''s up to you to lead your team to start a full-scale investigation of this police club. Be sure to find out who are the specific members of this so-called police club, what is its organizational form, who is the head of the organization, and what has it done. Everyone, everything they do must be investigated clearly for me. The investigation process needs to be secretive and silent, don''t let them find out? " At this moment, Silva Carpenter also had a serious expression, stood at attention with a firm gaze, and saluted directly, and said in a firm tone: "Yes, please rest assured, sir. I will definitely investigate this so-called police club thoroughly. " Sirio Leitch stepped forward and patted the other party''s shoulder, with a serious tone and dignified expression: "Silva, you are my most trusted subordinate, this matter is very serious, Time is very urgent, I need you to report the specific situation to me in the shortest possible time. If you may be in danger once you are noticed, you must be mentally prepared. Understand? " Silva heard the officer say that he might be in danger, his eyes froze, and soon became cold. As an agent of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, investigating this organization may be dangerous, That shows that this organization has a very deep background, which makes a murderous flash flash in his heart. An organization that dares to attack the intelligence agency in Brazil is not allowed to exist. "Yes, sir." Answer short and forcefully. Sirio Leitch nodded, shook hands with the other party again, and watched the other party leave. Fernando de Noronha Islands at dusk, a fiery red sun is slowly sinking into the sea. The entire surface of the sea was ignited by the sun and turned into a glowing red piece. Outside a small log house on the island, more than a dozen middle-aged people of various skin colors are gathering. "Boss, these Japanese dwarfs are occupying the vicinity of the pier these days, what do you want to do? Shall we drive them away. " A curly-haired man with wheat-colored skin yelled in displeasure. The black man sitting on a rock beside him opened his mouth wide, showing his yellow teeth and laughed loudly: "Haha. These little guys, it wouldn''t be something that saw us rob newcomers a few days ago. If you want to stay on the pier, when the next batch of newcomers come to the island, grab a wave too! " Hearing this, everyone burst into laughter. "That can''t be done, these things are ours, so they can''t do it. We went over and drove them away. " "Haha. Don''t worry! It''s useless even if they occupy it. It''s been a long time since no newcomers have come to the island. Who knows when will the next time I send someone to the island. " "This is not necessarily the case. I have taken in two newcomers, and I heard from them that there have been wars outside for the past few years. Maybe the government just didnt have time to carry out the exile in the past two years. Now that the war is over, the backlog of prisoners might be sent to the island again? " Everyone expressed their opinions in a hurry. The middle-aged bearded white man sitting on a bench made of logs in the middle looked at the other thin middle-aged white man with glasses who sat aside and kept silent all the time: "Nathan, what do you think?" (end of this chapter) Chapter 323: restless island Chapter 323 Restless island The white man who has been sitting on the side without making a sound, wears a pair of glasses that seem to have broken his legs several times, and his eyes are a little deep. After hearing what the bearded white man said, he pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose with his hands, which seemed to fall off at any moment. said with a hoarse voice: "As far as I know, they started to approach the pier slowly in the past two days! If they really wanted to cut off the next batch of newcomers to the island, why did they have to wait for a few days before going there? " After hearing what this skinny man named Nathan said, the bearded white man pondered for a while before saying: "You mean, their purpose is not to cut off the next batch of newcomers to the island? Then what are they going to do? It''s not like you want to grab the boat and leave! " Without waiting for everyone to answer, he himself shook his head and denied the answer. "No, they were not exiled to the island. At the beginning, they said that they were deported, and it was impossible for them to return to Brazil if they robbed the boat. Besides, the boat that escorted the prisoners had machine guns, so it was simply impossible for them to **** the boat. " Everyone fell into deep thought. This is a young black man, speaking: I heard that they were supported by people in Brazil, so they were not directly repatriated, but sent to the island for temporary resettlement. After the wind has passed, they will be brought back to Brazil. Could it be that the rumors have passed by now! Someone will pick them up soon? " People around began to whisper. A burly black man with a thick face was a little bit dizzy from everyone''s discussion, and he stood up from the stump he was sitting on and said: "What''s there to talk about, whatever the purpose of those dwarfs, We just drive them away and occupy the pier. If there is any good thing, it is all our own. " Everyone''s eyes lit up when they heard it. One after another stood up and echoed: "Yes! Boss, We directly occupy the pier, no matter what they want to do, they must take us with them. " The middle-aged skinny white man named Nathan also smiled after hearing what the strong black man said: "This is also a simple and direct method. However, there are far more of these dwarfs than we are. To seize the pier with them, there may be a lot of casualties! Shall we call Pulsatilla and the others together? " When the bearded boss heard Nathan''s words, he waved his hands in disdain and said: "What''s the use of calling those political prisoners, they just move their mouths. If it weren''t for those who have been soldiers and still have some combat effectiveness, I would have swallowed them long ago. " Others also bluffed one after another! "That is, these people are useless at all, and if there is any benefit at that time, I will give them a share. It''s not as refreshing as our own actions. " The middle-aged, thin white man waited for everyone to express their opinions before coughing twice: "Cough, cough, I know they don''t have much fighting power. But our people are not as many as the dwarfs. If there are too many casualties, will we be taken advantage of by the Pulsatilla and the others? " Hearing this, the bearded boss was taken aback for a moment, and immediately reacted. This is because I am afraid that I will lose both sides in the fight with the Japanese, and will be taken advantage of by the Pulsatilla''s gang of political prisoners. Laughing loudly, he patted Nathan on the shoulder and said: "Haha. You are still smart, this book is really worth reading. Thats right, we cant let the Pulsatillas and the gang take advantage of it, we must take them along with us. Lets go, were going to meet Pulsatilla and the others now. " In fact, there are currently three forces in Fernando de Noronha Islands. This bearded man was originally the most powerful one, with a total of six or seven hundred people. It is composed of some serious criminals. These people are brave and ruthless, and most of them were exiled to the island because of life lawsuits. And the other is the force he called Pulsatilla, these people are composed of some exiled political prisoners. Because some of the political prisoners are military officers, their combat effectiveness is not weak, but their number is relatively small, only two or three hundred. The last is the Japanese with the largest number of people. A group of people broke into the Pulsatilla''s territory mightily. Many people on Pulsatilla''s side are educated intellectuals, and they all shook their heads when they heard the intentions of everyone''s visit. Clay Hope, known as Pulsatilla, is an old white man with all white hair. The origin of his nickname is that snow-white hair. Looking at the menacing crowd, Clay Hope smiled gently and said: "Falker Pinto I''m old and not as aggressive as you young men. Since you feel that it is unacceptable for the Japanese to occupy the pier, you can go to war directly with the other party. We will not participate. " After speaking, he glanced at Nathan who was wearing glasses, smiled and said: "Don''t worry, no matter whether we win or lose, we will not do anything to take advantage of others." In the smile, it seems to be pointing. After hearing his words, Falk Pinto, the boss of the bearded white man, said indifferently: "Mr. Hope, don''t get me wrong, we are not worried that you will take advantage of others. Instead, I feel that someone may come to pick up these Japanese. This is a rare opportunity. Doesnt Mr. Hope want to return to Brazil? " Pulsatilla Clay Hope smiled and said unmoved: "Folke Pinto, do you think that if someone is really coming to pick up the Japanese. Will the other party let you board the boat together because you occupied the pier? Are you not afraid of facing the machine gun fire on the ship? " These words made the bearded Falk Pinto''s face change drastically, right! If this is the case, wouldn''t it be death to seize the pier? The faces of the people following behind the bearded man also changed drastically. They are unarmed, but they dare not face machine gun fire. Nathan, the skinny bearded man with glasses, didn''t expect that Clay Hope''s words would destroy the fighting spirit of their team. With a movement of his eyes, he coughed twice and said: "Mr. Hope, these are some of our guesses. Do you think it is possible that someone wants to deliver supplies to the island? The purpose of the Japanese occupation of the pier is to wait to receive supplies? " Hearing this, the eyes of the bearded Falk Pinto''s people lit up and they became restless. Even on the side of the pulsatilla Clay Hope, there are many people who are starting to move. Clay Hope glanced over, seeing everyone''s reactions in his eyes. Once again, he focused his gaze on the skinny and bespectacled man named Nathan, with the corners of his mouth slightly upturned, and continued calmly: "Why do you think that the people who deliver the supplies are not protected by weapons?" Nathan was not flustered, and continued to laugh: "Then we can also **** supplies on their way back! The people who deliver the goods can''t send them all the way to their station! " The dialogue between the two mobilized the enthusiasm of everyone around them. The people who came here with the bearded Falk Pinto are now directly on the pier, and the Japanese are forcibly occupying the ownership of the pier. But Clay Hope broke everyone''s illusions with a few words, But Nathan, the skinny bespectacled man, gave them hope again. You must know that on this island where prisoners are exiled, they can only live a life similar to primitive people. They are very eager for the materials of a civilized society. Everyone knows these Japanese, they are different. They were not forced into exile, but chose to go to the island to develop. said they were able to relate to the outside world, Or, will the outside world send them a batch of supplies every once in a while? No one dares to say that there is no such possibility. Even if there is only a one in ten thousand possibility, they will not give up the opportunity to **** supplies. As for the Japanese being three times their number, that''s a trifle. After all, there are old and weak women and children among the Japanese. But most of them are young adults. What''s even more hateful is that there are women among those Japanese. This is a fatal attraction for the prisoners on the island. It is precisely because of this situation that the conflict between the two groups of people on the island and the Japanese is very deep. Some conflicts will break out between the two sides from time to time. But because the strength of the middle-aged men on both sides is not much different, everyone is maintaining restraint. But a larger conflict is only a matter of time. So, when Nathan said that when the Japanese returned to the station, they robbed supplies, almost everyone became restless. "Yeah, we robbed these little Japanese guys." "I want to rob their women." "Haha. Yes, yes, steal women." "That''s right, we want to grab supplies and women." At the beginning, there were only a few sporadic people shouting loudly, and slowly more and more people began to shout. The shouting became louder and more orderly. "Grab supplies! Grab women!" "Grab supplies! Grab women!" As everyone shouted, Ryan Hope''s face became more and more ugly, His eyes fixed on Nathan, the skinny and bespectacled man who provoked trouble. "Aren''t you afraid that there are weapons in the supplies delivered by the other party?" Nathan glanced mockingly at Pulsatilla Ryan Hope, and laughed loudly: "If you have a weapon, you have to grab it even more. Otherwise, do you think that if the other party has a weapon, we can still live well?" This time even the middle-aged man who had been standing behind Ryan Hope began to look ugly. Whispered to Ryan Hope''s ear and said: "Sir, Nathan is right. If the other party really sends weapons to the island, we will have to **** them. Otherwise, we may become slaves of the Japanese. " Pulsatilla Ryan Hope, as the leader of the political prisoners on the island, does not want to have a fierce conflict with the Japanese on the island. Even, he is very happy to see the barbarians like the bearded Falk Pinto, and the Japanese dwarf. Therefore, he has been restraining the people on his side not to have direct conflicts with the Japanese. Unexpectedly, this time because of the sudden occupation of the pier by the Japanese, Let the bearded people start to get restless. And this **** Nathan even took the opportunity to provoke his people. Actually, this thin, bespectacled man named Nathan turned out to be one of their political prisoners. It can even be said to be his important assistant, right-hand man. But after being exiled to this small island, everyone began to live in precarity, and life was very difficult. Suppressed and bullied by those serious criminals everywhere. Because of his thin body and poor physical fitness, Nathan could not do any heavy physical work. Often bullied by those heavy offenders. At that time, Nathan called on all political prisoners to unite to fight against the oppression of these heavy criminals. But at that time, Ryan Hope, who had just suffered the biggest blow in his life and was devastated, had no such thoughts at all. And Nathan didn''t have such great prestige among political prisoners, so he couldn''t organize everyone. I dont know when it started, Nathan and the bearded Falk Pinto among the heavy offenders came together. Then, suddenly one day, the bearded Falk Pinto led people to overthrow the original leader and establish a new force. Nathan became like a counselor beside the other party. I dont know why, but Falk Pinto didnt take these political prisoners under their command. Instead, they were automatically excluded from the new organization. They had to choose to form a group again, and the most prestigious Ryan Hope naturally became the leader of the political prisoners. (end of this chapter) Chapter 324: ready for delivery Chapter 324 Ready for Delivery The large-scale gathering of the other two forces on the island obviously cannot be hidden from the Japanese who are occupying the pier. "Mizuno-kun, it seems that we should be more careful. These two groups of people are obviously going to attack us when they get together." Xinyi Mizuno stood at the pier, quietly watching the reflected red sea. smiled indifferently and said: "It''s okay, if they don''t attack us, we will find a way to attack them, won''t we?" Kobayashi Hisaku who stood aside, didn''t know whether it was because of the afterglow of the setting sun shining on his face, or if he was really excited. His face looked a little red. Even his gray hair was glowing red. The whole person looks rosy. bowed deeply to Mizuno Xinyi, full of admiration: "Hi! Mizuno-kun is right, this island is only allowed to have citizens of our big Japan. I dont know what kind of expressions these **** rainforest monkeys will have when they face our guns. ah! Really looking forward to it! " After hearing what Kobayashi Hisaku said, Mizuno Xinyi patted his shoulder with a big laugh and said: "Haha. Kobayashi-kun is right. I am also looking forward to it! Ha ha" Both of them burst out laughing. After laughing, Kobayashi Hisaku looked at Mizuno Xinyi cautiously as if he just remembered something, and said: "Mizuno-kun, we have been waiting at the pier for a few days. Why hasnt the ship carrying the arms arrived yet? There will be no accidents, right? " Mizuno Shingi, who had been slapped by the rainbow fart just now, felt comfortable all over. When he heard this, his good mood suddenly turned from sunny to cloudy. Forcibly suppressing the uneasiness and unhappiness in his heart, he patted Kobayashi Hisakusaku on the shoulder confidently and said: "Don''t worry! Mr. Xiaolin, our partners are very powerful, There is no need to worry about such trivial matters. It is not yet our agreed arrival time! What''s the hurry. " Hisaku Kobayashi heard Mizuno Xinyi''s words so confidently, and suppressed the uneasiness in his heart, and bowed deeply to Mizuno Xinyi again. respectfully said: "Hi! Mizuno-kun is right, I was too anxious. terribly sorry! " Just when he bent down and bowed, his eyes were looking at the ground. Suddenly there was a surprise cry in my ear: "ferry, There is a boat coming! Just in the direction where the sun sets. " quickly raised his head and looked towards the direction where the sun was setting, Sure enough, I saw a small black spot looming under the fiery red sun. There were more and more screams of surprise, "ferry, The ship is coming! I see it! " "I saw it too, The ship is really coming! " Hisaku Kobayashi looked at Shinyo Mizuno beside him. I saw the other party''s expression was calm, as if he had known this before, and seemed very unpredictable. But the way the opponent''s hands were clasped tightly behind his back still fell into Kobayashi Hisakusaku''s eyes. Smiled slightly in his heart, it seems that Mizuno Xinyi is not as confident as he appears! However, at this time, I must give the other party a big flattery, Only then can the self-esteem of the other party be satisfied to the greatest extent! Thinking of this, Hisaku Kobayashi is about to make another ninety-degree bow, But when he was about to bend over, he found that his waist was in severe pain. Twisting it twice, I realized that I should have just heard the news that the ship had arrived, and I was too excited. Get up too fast, causing my old waist to be injured. However, he still suppressed the pain in his waist, bowed to Mizuno Xinyi beside him and said: "Congratulations Mizuno-kun, Your great career is about to officially set sail. I believe that soon we will be calling you Sir Mizuno. " Hearing Kobayashi Hisakusaku''s compliment, Mizuno Shinichi''s face was filled with joy, Laughing loudly, he embraced Hisaku Kobayashi''s shoulder and said: "Ha ha. Mr. Xiaolin, this is our common cause. It is also the great cause of His Majesty Tianhuang. Hahaha." Hisaku Kobayashi, who was obviously unable to suppress his excitement, and Kobayashi Hisakuku, who was obviously unable to suppress his excitement, gasped. "Hiss!" Mizuno Shinichi quickly noticed Kobayashi Hisaku''s abnormality. Looking at Hisaku Kobayashi with a painful expression on his face, he asked in surprise: "Mr. Xiaolin, what''s wrong with you?" Kobayashi Hisaku looked at Mizuno Xinyi with apologetic face and said: "Mizuno-kun, I''m really sorry. I''m getting older, I was too surprised just now, and accidentally twisted my waist when I got up. " Mizuno Xinyi could only be resentful, and let go of Kobayashi Hisakuku''s hand, which made him very unhappy. The excitement that had just started was interrupted by this old guy''s discomfort, which made him very annoyed. But the Japanese etiquette forced him to look at him with concern: "Ah! I''m so sorry, Mr. Xiaolin, I didnt hurt you just now! Do you want to go back and rest first? " Hisaku Kobayashi obviously understood that his back pain came at an inappropriate time, so he could only apologize again and again: "It''s okay, Kobayashi-kun, I can still persist, I must witness this great moment with my own eyes. " Actually, Kobayashi Hisaku didn''t want to go back to rest, but now the other two forces are staring at the Japanese. If I leave the Japanese army at this time and return to the settlement. Maybe, he was dragged into the woods halfway and beat him to death. Kobayashi Hisaku would absolutely not accept this if he died before the victory. So, even if you are in pain, you must endure it. As a leader who is about to become famous, Mizuno Xinyi must show his affinity. For the old man Kobayashi Hisaku, he must show enough respect. So, no matter what you think. Mizuno Shingito was very kind, holding Kobayashi Hisakusaku''s arm, Help him to sit on a stone by the pier. Full of concern: "Mr. Xiaolin, your spirit is commendable. Our cause still needs the strength of Kobayashi-kun, So, please take care of yourself. " Kobayashi Hisaku also had a grateful expression on his face. The surrounding Japanese also stepped forward to express their concern, creating an atmosphere of unity and friendship. But when Mizuno Shingi stood back on the pier again, he began to curse unconsciously: "Damn old stuff, what a spoiler." Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Kobayashi Hisaku who was sitting aside, being comforted by the people around him. Mizuno Shinyi felt a glimmer of gloom for no reason. He is a very superstitious person, today would have been an exciting and exciting moment. But it was interrupted by the old guy''s sudden back pain. In his opinion, this was a very unlucky thing. But he had to maintain his friendly and polite image. Facing the old guy who was embarrassing himself at this critical moment, he asked his health. Fortunately, as time passed, the small black dot-like ship in the distance slowly approached the pier. He doesn''t have to continue to play roles that he is not very good at. At the same time, the fishing boat slowly approached the pier. Vox was looking at the pier with a telescope, and saw that the small pier was surrounded by these short Asians, and there were thousands of them. Very surprised, and asked Devis Barry on the side with a puzzled face: "These people seem to be little Japan? Are our goods handed over to them? " Devis Barry saw the dense figures on the pier, shrugged indifferently and said: "It should be true, but let''s be careful and let your brothers put up their guns. If anyone dares to rush to the boat, I will shoot them. " Hearing what Devis Barry said, Vox said a little puzzled: "Isn''t it delivery? How could someone rush onto the boat? Is there anyone else who dares to grab the goods? " Devis Barry coughed twice and shook his head: "Cough, cough, this island is for exiled prisoners, and the island is full of prisoners. At that time, there may be prisoners who want to **** our boat and run back directly! " Vox must have said this, and he was also shocked, and looked up at the sky. "Then we have to pay attention, it will be dark soon. It would be troublesome if we got on the pier and were touched out of the water. " Looking at Vauxs frightened look, Devis Barry smiled lightly and said: "Haha. How can you say that you are also a gangster, Why are you so timid, don''t forget that we have guns in our hands. Anyone who dares to charge onto the boat, we will shoot them all with guns. " Vox looked at his ship full of ammunition, and then at the densely packed people on the pier. No matter how you look at it, it doesn''t feel safe. Facing Davis Barry, he curled his lips in disdain and said: "Did you forget what we sent them. It''s all ammunition. Do you think you have sent the equipment to the island, there are so many people and so many guns, why are you afraid of the guns on our ship? " Devis Barry obviously ignored this point, and was taken aback when he heard this. Look at the full ship of ammunition and so many people on the opposite side. But soon he thought of another way, smiled and said: "It''s ok, Lets not transport the bullets up, even if they get the gun, Its just a fire stick without bullets, nothing to be afraid of! " "You can have a snack! Don''t you know how many bullets we have here? Can it be shipped in one batch? " Devis Barry was also a little annoyed by Vox''s words, and said dissatisfiedly: "Aren''t you a professional arms trader? You should be more experienced! I''ll check to see if it''s the correct consignee. Delivery is your own responsibility. " Vox was furious when he heard Devis Barry''s irresponsible words. I dont know if Devis Barry has already got what he wants. Vox feels that the other party is actually not as interested in this arms deal as he imagined. Even more perfunctory than myself. The strength shown in the early stage is more like trying to extort a benefit from himself. This made Vaux very incomprehensible. But what he was worried about was not Devis Barry in front of him, but his boss behind the scenes. Devis Barry doesn''t care what his boss''s attitude is, or how he treats the tasks his boss gives him. He just wanted to do his job well, and deliver the ammunition in his hand to the owner of the goods smoothly under the eyes of the other party. He didn''t want to pay too much attention to other things. Even, I dont want to cooperate with this boss anymore. After all, I didnt make any money, and I almost spent all my money in it. Now it''s time for delivery, so you have to be extra careful. If you are not careful, it might not be a matter of your own capital. Maybe even my own life will be involved. Thinking of this, Vox glared at Devis Barry, then turned and walked into the cabin. "Girard, come here. Let all the brothers load their guns, we have to watch out for the people on the island to come and **** the boat. Don''t let them accept even people and boats. " After finishing speaking, he glanced at Devis Barry not far away, and whispered to Girard: "Also, you have to focus on this guy later, I think there is something wrong with this bald head, so don''t let something happen." (end of this chapter) Chapter 325: peep Chapter 325 Peeping The afro-haired black Gerald nodded seriously without asking any more questions after hearing what his boss said. This is also his first time participating in the gang''s arms business. The mood is less excited and nervous. He had already expected that the boss was worried about being blackmailed. Looking at the crowds of people on the pier in the distance, he asked a little puzzled: "Boss, why did the other party occupy the entire pier? Are they going to come to our ship to inspect the goods? If the other party wants to board the ship, we are too dangerous. I think it''s better for us not to dock yet, and wait until the other party clears us a safe area. Let''s go up again. " Girard''s words made Vaux''s eyes light up, and he couldn''t help but look at the other party with admiration. nodded seriously and said: "Girard, you are very good. Sure enough, I read you right, you are a person who does great things. How about this! After disembarking and docking. You first take five or six brothers to the pier with guns, and drive them away from the pier. After we have shipped all the goods to the case, let the two of them come over to inspect the goods. No problem, we retreated directly to the boat. Don''t give too many of them access to our goods. " Hearing that his boss praised him, Girard was very happy, which meant that his position in the gang would be more stable in the future. nodded repeatedly and said: "No problem boss, just watch it. Without your permission, never give the other party a chance to approach the goods. " Then he glanced out again and said: "But if that''s the case, the one outside?" Vox understood what the other party meant, after all, he had arranged for the other party to pay attention to Devis Barry''s movements just now! Now that the task has changed, he must of course ask if he needs to continue to monitor the other party. This shows that the other party is a serious and responsible subordinate. This made Vaux appreciate it even more. Nodding in satisfaction, patted the other person on the shoulder and said: "Don''t worry! I''ll do it myself!" Gillard nodded when he heard the words, but didn''t say anything more, turned around and went to the cabin to start picking people. Mizuno Shingi, who had been standing at the pier waiting quietly, was overjoyed when he saw the boat getting closer and finally docked at the pier. But looking at the few people standing on the bow, he was taken aback. How about arranging the person responsible for the escort? There must be no accident! Before he could ask what happened, six men with submachine guns jumped off the boat. Without any explanation, he pointed his gun at them. One of the black men with an explosive head pointed the muzzle of the submachine gun directly at his head. shouted at himself: "Stand back, everybody back. Anyone who dares to approach will be shot. Hurry up, I will count to three, and kill all those who do not retreat. three two." Feel the cold touch from the barrel of the other party, and the smell of gun oil. Mizuno Shingi was terrified all over. It''s over, something went wrong. When the other party started counting down, he no longer cared about his own image. Raise your hands directly and start to step back. While walking, I didnt forget to shout to the Japanese around me in Japanese: "Everyone, step back first, step back first. There may be some misunderstanding here. " Then he said to the black man who pointed a gun at him in front of him: "Hey, brother! Misunderstanding, is there some misunderstanding? Didnt you come here to deliver the goods to me? " The black man was Girard, who heard the words of the fat little man in front of him. Knowing that the other party might be the owner of the goods, he moved the muzzle of the gun away from the other party''s forehead. While pushing the opponent back, looking down at the opponent and saying: "We''re here to deliver, but I don''t know if it''s for you. Before you figure it out, you''d better keep me away from the pier. " After speaking, he still did not forget to greet the brothers around him: "Let these Japanese dwarfs stay away from the pier, and when the **** in charge confirms the identity of the other party, we are unloading." The men of various skin colors who jumped off the boat with him were also Qi Qiyingnuo. Continue to push the Japanese on the pier back. As soon as Mizuno Xinyi heard what the other party said, he understood that it was indeed a delivery for himself. But the situation may have changed a bit now. The person in charge of the **** on his side did not show up. The other party needs to confirm their identity. He stepped back and shouted to the Japanese behind him: "Everyone back up to make room. This is for our delivery. Don''t be nervous, everyone. " Now that he confirmed that the other party was indeed the one who delivered the goods to him, he no longer worried. Instead, he had the energy to continue chatting with the other party, with a smile on his face and said: "Brother, I am the consignee, and my name is Mizuno Shinichi. Don''t we have one of our own people responsible for escorting? Why didn''t you see our people? " Girard didn''t know how it was arranged, and he didn''t want to talk nonsense with this little Japanese. curled his lips and said: "Don''t talk nonsense, continue to retreat, I don''t know your problem." Seeing that the other party was unwilling to talk to him, Mizuno Xinyi could only helplessly spread his hands, and continued to retreat obediently. I still don''t forget to turn my head and say a few words of comfort to the Japanese behind me. On a small hill away from the pier, the bearded Falk Pinto and the skinny bespectacled man Nathan and others were hiding in the woods, paying close attention to the situation at the pier. "Hey! There really is a **** boat coming! These little **** are really capable! " Listening to the bearded man beside him, Nathan just smiled and didn''t speak. His eyes were fixed on the ship that was slowly approaching the shore. I can''t help but have some doubts in my heart. Why does this boat look like a fishing boat? If this ship transports supplies, it seems that it won''t be able to transport much to the shore! If its just a little material, and the whole of Little Japan is dispatched, isnt the movement a little too big! Although Nathan didn''t speak, other people around him have already started talking. "The boat is really here. This small boat is definitely not here to pick up people." "Yes! This is just a fishing boat, it can''t hold many people." "But if you deliver the goods, you won''t be able to deliver much!" "These little Japanese don''t want to collect some seafood!" "Could this fishing boat belong to them! I heard that Little Japan likes to eat fish. They don''t want to use fishing boats to catch fish by themselves! " "It would be great if that''s the case. We can just grab their fishing boat and go home." The distance from the pier is still relatively far, and everyone is not worried about being heard by the Japanese, so they express their opinions one after another. As the ship approached the pier, everyone saw a few big men with submachine guns jumping off the ship, and pointed their guns at the Japanese at the pier. Bearded Falk Pinto couldn''t help but patted Nathan beside him and said: "Nathan, what''s going on. Isnt it Japaneses own product? Why did the Japanese get guns pointed at their heads first? " At this time, Nathan was also confused, and said with a puzzled look: "I don''t quite understand it now, let''s see what''s going on first." After speaking, he looked at the sun by the sea, and said worriedly: "The sun is going to set soon, I hope these guys will light up the pier, otherwise we won''t be able to see what they are delivering." Falker Pinto said with an indifferent expression on his face: "It doesn''t matter what he is, if I like it, I must have a copy of it. Otherwise, I will burn them all. " Nathan said with a serious face: "We have to start snatching different goods at different times. So, we have to see what their goods are. If the other party''s goods are ordinary living supplies, we can set up an ambush here to **** them. But what about arms? " When everyone around heard this, their faces changed drastically. Falker Pinto even slapped the big tree beside him and said: "Damn, if it''s arms, we absolutely can''t give them a chance to arm themselves. You must rush directly to the pier to grab it. No, we can''t wait here any longer, we''re going now. " Nathan grabbed Falk Pinto''s arm and said: "Wait, it''s getting dark. We still have time. It seems that there is not much trust between the delivery person and these little Japanese. So, Little Japan has been driven off the pier. We can''t go there now, maybe the other party sees that something is wrong, so he just sails away. At that time, everyone will be busy for nothing. " Xinyi Mizuno on the pier has been driven off the trestle by Girard and others, looking at the gangsters with submachine guns on the opposite side, Mizuno Shingi was also a little anxious. Now he can be sure that the other party is the person responsible for delivering the arms to him, but the person he is responsible for escorting has disappeared. Needless to say, something must have happened in the middle, This unexpected situation made him feel very bad. Just when he was on tiptoe to see what was going on on the boat, Hisaku Kobayashi supported his waist and slowly came behind Mizuno Shinichi. asked Mizuno Shingi with some worry: "Mizuno-kun, did something happen?" Mizuno Shinji was very dissatisfied with Kobayashi''s question of which pot to open and which pot not to open. After giving the other party a blank look, he said angrily: "The **** I arranged did not show up, But they are definitely the ones we are waiting for. " Kobayashi Hisaku didn''t care about the other party''s attitude, he glanced at the sky, and then at the jungle behind him. Some worried: "Mizuno-kun, it seems that the delivery person doesn''t believe us, We definitely can''t get the weapons directly. The two gangs behind must have been eyeing us. If we can''t complete the arming in the first time, they may grab the goods from us. We must be prepared. " Concentrating all his attention on Mizuno Shinichi on the fishing boat, he heard Kobayashi Hisakusaku''s words. He was startled, and immediately understood that the other party was not lying. With a flustered look in his eyes, he glanced at the jungle behind him. Gritting his teeth, he said: "Those damned bastards, we must not let them ruin our event. Mr. Xiaolin, our plan is about to change. Now, except for the three hundred we plan to arm. All the others are left to you to command. Please make sure that those damned prisoners will not rush up to make trouble for us. After our arming is completed, I will bring all the soldiers to support you. " Kobayashi Hisaku didn''t expect to put himself in the suggestion he made. If it was normal, I would be very happy to entrust so many people to my command. But now is not a good time. But he also knew that if he wanted to receive the arms, Mizuno Xinyi must come forward in person. He cannot be replaced, so the task of preventing the prisoners on the island from robbing can only fall on his head. Finding that the sky was getting darker and darker, Kobayashi Hisakusaku understood that there was no other way at this time. Passing his aching old waist, he looked at Mizuno Shingi who was a little flustered, looking at him solemnly. Kobayashi Hisaku could only grit his teeth and say: "Okay, then I will arrange it now." (end of this chapter) Chapter 326: Verify identidy Chapter 326 Verifying Identity Actually, among these people, the reason why the white-haired old man Kobayashi Hisaku became Mizuno Shingis right-hand man is that It is because he is a veteran who participated in the Russo-Japanese War. Among all these Japanese, the only veteran with actual combat experience. In the future plan, he will also be responsible for the training of the soldiers. He did provide Shinichi Mizuno with many constructive suggestions. It should be said that his sense of smell is indeed very sensitive. After seeing the arrival of the fishing boat, the people on the boat did not directly hand over the ammunition to them. Instead, they forcibly cleared out a safe area. He knew that the delivery person was on guard against them. In this case, it is easy to give the other two groups of people on the island an opportunity. So, he immediately issued an early warning to Mizuno Xinyi. Now Mizuno Xinyi entrusted him with the blocking task, He didn''t have time to think, so he could only start to arrange according to the experience he had learned in the war. Fortunately, for the convenience of management, the Japanese on the island have organized teams. He gathered the team leaders of all the teams that did not need to receive equipment, explained the current situation, and made some arrangements. Vox and Devis Barry on the boat saw that the pier had been cleared out of a safe area. Looked at each other and smiled with satisfaction. Vox said to Devis Barry: "Mr. Davis, it''s up to you next." Devis Barry smiled, sat up from the stool, straightened his suit, touched his bald head, and then put on his top hat. Putting his hand on the pistol at his waist, he walked out unhurriedly. Came to the pier that had been emptied, glanced around, and then slowly said: "I don''t know who is Mr. Mizuno Shingi?" Mizuno Shingi, who had been standing by the pier, couldn''t help being taken aback when he heard the other party''s question. He had already seen this imposing burly man, but the other party was not the **** he had arranged. So, he didn''t make a sound. I thought the other party was going to make a speech. As a result, the other party directly called out his name. Seeing the opponent''s right hand that had been pressing on the pistol, Mizuno Shinichi hesitated for a moment, then gritted his teeth and raised his right hand to signal: "Sir, I am Shinyoshi Mizuno. Don''t know where my companion went? " Actually, Devis Barry had already seen this chunky middle-aged Japanese, Especially the way the opponent raised his hands and retreated under the gunpoint of the black man with the afro, which made him very disdainful. But he pretended not to know and stood on the pier and asked loudly. Seeing Mizuno Xinyi raise his hand, Davis Barry straightened his right hand, stretched out his index finger and hooked the opponent. This action is very unfriendly. But Mizuno Xinyi walked up slowly, because the other party had something he needed. After Mizuno Shingi came in front of him, Devis Barry smiled and said: "Sir, I want to confirm your identity, so can you take off your clothes?" Hearing these words, Mizuno Shingi''s expression became very ugly. Didn''t make any movements, but stared at Devis Barry with both eyes and said: "Sir, I wonder where my companion has gone? Also, why do you have to take off your clothes to confirm your identity? There are more than 3,000 of my compatriots here, and everyone can prove my identity. " But Davis Barry ignored his reaction, but smiled jokingly. Looked at the other party with malicious eyes, and then slowly said: "Sir, until I personally confirm your identity, I will not answer any of your questions. So please don''t waste everyone''s time. " Mizuno Xinyi is very clear that the other party''s purpose of making him take off his clothes is not to humiliate himself, But in front of so many people, it is too embarrassing to prove one''s identity in this way. Therefore, he said directly: "I know, you want to confirm my identity through the birthmark on my back, I can tell you right now that I have a palm-sized red birthmark on my back. " Devis Barry shook his head with a smile, ignored the other party''s words, but said with a serious face: "Sir, I say one last time, please take off your clothes. Let me judge with my own eyes whether you are Mizuno Shingi. If I can''t confirm it with my own eyes, I will take the ship and leave immediately. " At this moment, Xinyi Mizuno wanted to tear the brains of the rigid guy in front of him to see if it was filled with feces. I am the leader of more than 3,000 people in front of me, And you made me undress in front of so many people. Isn''t this a naked humiliation? What we know is that you are asking for my identity. People who dont know may think I have some special hobbies! How will my team lead in the future. What is even more speechless is that one day, I would encounter this kind of thing that makes me prove that I am myself. But the attitude of the other party is very firm, Now he is not sure whether the other party wants to embarrass himself on purpose, or is it really such a dead-headed person. But he knew, whatever it was. If he wants to get this batch of goods today, he can only prove it by undressing. I dont know if I will be said to have become famous after I have achieved a great career in the future. Shingi Mizuno had no choice but to endure the humiliation, unbuttoned his shirt, turned around, and showed his back in front of Davis Barry. At this moment, Devis Barry also felt a little regretful, You said that if the opposite is a beautiful woman, I would be more than happy to appreciate it slowly for a while, and even reach out and touch it to test whether it is true or not. But on the opposite side is a short and fat middle-aged man, with a slight fat body that leaked after taking off his clothes. It really makes people feel a little disgusting. After confirming that there is indeed a palm-sized red birthmark on the opponent''s back, Devis Barry resisted the embarrassment in his heart, and revealed a smiley face that didn''t smile: "Very good, Mr. Shinyi Mizuno, now I have confirmed your identity with my own eyes. Next, I will hand over the equipment of this battalion to you. Please confirm and check. " The Japanese around the pier saw Mizuno Shinyo showing his **** in public, One after another began to whisper to each other, and there was a lot of discussion for a while. "Mr. Mizuno, what is this for?" "Why take off your clothes?" "My God! This is so disrespectful." "Ah! What a shame." These voices naturally reached Mizuno Xinyi''s ears, and his face turned red for a while. I can''t wait to find a seam in the ground and get in. Because of the very dark sky on the hilltop in the distance, many people could no longer see the pier clearly. But there are still some people who can vaguely see what happened on the pier. began to vividly describe the ongoing passionate drama to everyone. "Haha. That little Japanese guy is actually taking off his clothes and showing his back for the other party to see. Hahaha. This is hilarious. " "Is this the etiquette for meeting Japanese people?" "Is it possible to exchange supplies as long as you take off your clothes?" "Haha. This guy is so funny!" "I like this little white and fat little guy! Haha." "Maybe, we should ask him to come and give us a striptease." For a while, the originally depressing atmosphere on the mountain suddenly became joyful. Falker Pinto pushed Nathan beside him and said: "What is this for? Is there any secret in this little man? Can be exchanged for supplies? Shall we catch some alive later? " Nathan pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, and angrily said to the bearded man beside him: "Boss, I didn''t understand what was going on! Until now, I havent seen these little Japanese come out with money. I dont even know what the other party is going to use in exchange for supplies. " Bearded Falk Pinto looked at the sky that had completely turned black while speaking, and said unhappily: "Don''t these little Japanese guys light two fires? In the blink of an eye, we couldn''t even see the situation on the other side clearly. " Hearing the bearded man complaining, Nathan''s heart tightened. Yup! If the other party is trading in the dark, how can I judge what kind of goods the other party is trading? This is troublesome. And Xinyi Mizuno on the pier, when he heard Davis Barry say that he could hand over the equipment of a battalion to him, The big stone in my heart finally fell to the ground. Hastily asked Devis Barry: "Sir, where is my companion?" Shrugged, Devis Barry said flatly: "There was an accident and he was beaten to death." Although he had expected this, Mizuno Shinyo was a little sad when he heard the news. After all, to be entrusted with such an important task by him is his absolute confidant! I didn''t expect to die in such an unexplained way. But before he could continue to grieve, Devis Barry on the opposite side continued to speak: "I will let them stack the goods on the pier, and after they have stacked all the goods, You can arrange someone to inspect the goods. The inspection confirms that there is no problem, and we will consider the handover to be completed. Are you clear about this. " Hearing such a delivery process, Mizuno Xinyi immediately became anxious. "What? How does this work? You have to understand that there are still our enemies on the island. If they find that we are receiving supplies, they will definitely come and **** them. We must finish arming as soon as possible. " Devis Barry shrugged helplessly and said: "Mr. Mizuno Shinichi, the delivery person is not ours. They don''t trust you and worry that you will take their ships. So, I dare not let you directly finish arming, do you understand? There is nothing I can do about it. " After finishing speaking, he spread his hands to signal. This answer made Mizuno Xinyi direct, bursting out "Baga!" But he also understands that what the other party said is very reasonable. The goods traded are arms, and everyone will be afraid of black people. Looked at the completely dark sky, and then at the lights on the fishing boat. This is simply a bright light in the dark night! If it is really unloading like this, you can see what they are transporting two miles away. The helpless Mizuno Shingi could only say: "If that''s the case, can you ask them to turn off the lights on the ship. Use a flashlight to shine on the road to unload. Try to avoid others from discovering what goods we are shipping. " Devis Barry carefully looked at the short and fat little Japanese opposite him. He didn''t expect this person''s brain to be very easy to use. I thought of using darkness to delay time. However, this is no problem for him, he shrugged indifferently and said: "You are the boss, you have the final say." Then he turned and went back to the boat to discuss with Vaux. For Vaux, this request is understandable, and he agreed without hesitation. Find three flashlights from the boat, and ask someone to turn off the lights on the boat. Pick up a flashlight and walk into the cabin, and let people start moving the cargo. Devis Barry gave Xinyi Mizuno a flashlight, and the two were responsible for illuminating the road. Just like that, under the illumination of three flashlights, everyone began to carry the goods. (end of this chapter) Chapter 327: delivery Chapter 327 Delivery Because of the focus of the flashlight, the light will be concentrated into a range. As long as the goods are not directly illuminated, it is difficult for people in the distance to see the situation outside the illumination range. In this way, although the light is not ideal when everyone is transporting goods, the impact on unloading is actually very limited. But the people who were waiting far away on the mountain were a little uncomfortable. "Nathan, what now? We can''t even see what they''re shipping? Do you want to do it now, or do it later. " Now Nathan is also starting to feel embarrassed, What they are worried about is not the Japanese, but those who are responsible for delivery. After all, when the opponent cleared out of the pier, he had already shown the direct guy, and they were all submachine guns. Bearded Falk Pinto is impatient, and he seems a little uncertain when he sees Nathan. Patted his thigh and said: "These **** **** must have done it on purpose. I am now arranging for two people to touch in and have a look. " After hearing the words of the bearded Falk Pinto, Nathan also nodded, and now he can only try this method. Actually, Nathan also thought about whether the other party deliberately turned off the lights to deliver the goods, and whether it was the goods they least expected to see. That is, arms. But now he can''t see it at all, so he is not sure. After all, no matter what the goods are shipped to this island, they obviously don''t want others to find out. He can also understand the behavior of the delivery person and Little Japan to turn off the lights. After thinking for a long time, Nathan was still not at ease, and said to the bearded Falk Pinto: "It''s too passive for us to wait here. Now it''s completely dark, and we don''t have to worry about the other party finding us. Might as well just get closer to them. Wait for the investigators to confirm the type of the other party''s goods, and then we will make plans. " The bearded man of course has no opinion on this, he got up and said: "Okay, let''s just surround them, no matter what they have. As soon as the delivery guys leave, we''ll do it right away. " Then he turned around and began to greet everyone to quietly touch the direction of the pier. Time passed, and two spies who were arranged to approach the pier to check the situation, when they were three or four hundred meters away from the pier, found that there were Japanese guarding not far away. The two of them looked at each other, and both felt dizzy for a while, but they were already here, and it was impossible to back down. Can only lie on the ground and crawl forward a little bit. Just crawling less than 20 meters, I heard a burst of shouting from the opposite side. The Japanese began to light torches not far ahead! Light up the direction of the entire dock in a semicircle. If you want to enter the pier, you must pass through this circle of torches. Needless to say, both of them knew that there must be a large number of Japanese ambushing behind the circle of torches. As long as it is exposed to light, the detection task will fail. The light from the torch is more than 300 meters away from the pier. It is impossible to see the situation of the dock clearly with the light of these torches. On the contrary, it was because of the blocking of the light from these torches that the pier appeared a little darker. The two could only retreat helplessly. The torch that suddenly lit up here also attracted the attention of Falk Pinto and others who were touching it. Everyone stopped involuntarily to avoid being discovered by the other party. Seeing this situation, Nathan knew that the method of touching and checking from the front would definitely not work. Looked up at the semicircular line of fire, and said directly to Falk Pinto: "Now we can only approach from the sea. Can any of us swim this far? " "Yes, I will arrange it now." The bearded man also understands that this is the only way now. Turn around and start arranging for people to approach from the sea. Although July is winter in the southern hemisphere. But the islands of Fernando de Noronha are not far from the equator. So the temperature of the sea water is still more than ten degrees, and going into the sea does not have much impact. Soon, two people walked out of the team and began to go into the sea from a further place, approaching the pier. As time passed, the two people who swam from the sea were about to approach the cargo ship. The cargo on the ship was finally unloaded. Devis Barry and Vaux came to the neatly stacked crates and motioned for Xinyi Mizuno to inspect the goods. Mizuno Shingi was also polite, and picked up a crowbar to pry open a crate. By the corner of the flashlight, I saw these five rifles neatly stacked inside, and I was overjoyed. Devis Barry on the side seemed to randomly use a flashlight to illuminate several boxes of different specifications: "This is a rifle, this is a submachine gun, where is a grenade, and those are bullets. You are sure there is no problem and we retreated. " Mizuno Shinichi has not yet reacted, but nodded in satisfaction and said: "No problem, thanks for your help." But it was these few flashes of the flashlight that allowed Nathan in the distance to see the neat crates. I was shocked in my heart, and suddenly felt cold all over. Shouted to Falk Pinto beside him: "Damn it, it''s all ammunition, Quick, rush up, These little Japanese must not be given weapons. Otherwise we''re all screwed. " Hearing Nathan''s sudden cry, the people who were still silently lurking and waiting for the result were shocked. Whether seen or not seen, Hearing the news, everyone was stunned. The bearded Falk Pinto on the side jumped up and shouted: "Rush to everyone, to Lao Tzu. Quick.Quick. Whoever grabs it. Whoever gets it. " The originally peaceful jungle suddenly became restless. Like a powder keg that was instantly ignited, it exploded with a bang. Countless figures rushed out of the darkness and crossed the ring of warning torches set up by the Japanese. The Japanese, who had been hiding behind the torch circle, were nervous for a long time and did not see any movement from the enemy. Already a little let down vigilance. No one expected that the situation would suddenly take a turn for the worse. Countless enemies rushed into the range illuminated by the torch like crazy beasts. Sudden changes caught people off guard. In the blink of an eye, countless figures met in the darkness, stones flew in the sky, and the dark night made it hard for people to guard against. Just one contact with both sides will cause countless bloodshed. The bushes are full of people fighting each other. Some people even ignored the obstruction and entanglement of the Japanese, and rushed towards the pier with all their strength. There are also various sounds of "", "", "", "ѽ" in the mouth. The jungle that exploded in an instant obviously also attracted the attention of both parties who were inspecting the goods. The moment Mizuno Shingi heard the movement, his whole body trembled. Hastily greeted the Japanese waiting around to come and collect the equipment. But he was grabbed by Vaux next to him, and said loudly: "Please sign to confirm receipt of the goods, otherwise you can''t take it away." At this moment, Shinigi Mizuno was furious, wishing to kick down the **** who was still holding back at this critical moment. But seeing that the situation was about to get out of control, he had no choice but to shout: "I''m signing now, please let my people come in and get the equipment." Vox didn''t say much, and directly took out a list and handed a pen to the other party. Nobuyoshi Mizuno signed directly without hesitation. After Vox confirmed the other party''s signature, he shouted loudly to the people around him: "Brothers, let''s withdraw and give this place to the Japanese." Mizuno Shingi is also calling loudly in Japanese: "Everyone, come and get the equipment. Hurry up. Hurry up. Rifle here, submachine gun over there. Bullets over there! Quick. Quick. Those who get the weapons go directly to support. " Vox''s men were evacuating the pier with their guns in hand, while the Japanese who were about to lead their guns were desperately squeezing onto the pier. There was a mess on the pier for a while. Gillard and others were thrown upside down. Some Japanese directly want to **** weapons from their hands and join the battle. This can be regarded as stabbing Ma Fengwo, several gangsters don''t care who you are, they want to grab my gun. It''s just a shuttle. In an instant, the pier became even more chaotic. It can also be seen from this that Mizuno Xinyi has no experience in leading troops at all. At the first moment of the chaos, he himself panicked. He didn''t realize at all that his own people were far more than the opponent''s. Even if the enemy could break through the defense, they wouldn''t rush to the pier so quickly. The order on the scene was not maintained, and a special person was arranged to unpack the weapons and distribute the ammunition. Instead, all the Japanese swarmed onto the pier. This exacerbated the chaos at the pier, and also made Vox and the others who were eager to evacuate raise their guns on those who blocked them. Secondly, he never thought about letting those who received the weapons establish a new line of defense. Instead, let the person who received the weapon directly step forward to support, which is also an obviously wrong approach. Because of the light problem, rushing into the darkness with a weapon at this time can''t actually solve any problems. On the contrary, it will minimize the advantage of having weapons. No one with a little military common sense would make such a stupid decision. Voxs man is tall and burly, with a submachine gun next to him, after shooting and killing a few people, No one continued to lean on them desperately. Allow them to escape in time. When everyone evacuated to the boat, Vaux directly ordered people to turn on the lighting equipment on the boat. Count the number of people, and after finding that everyone has arrived, they directly order the boat to sail without hesitation. Stay away from the already messed up docks. Perhaps because of the light from the ship, the Japanese on the pier finally didnt have to continue searching in the dark. Soon several people have found the rifle and matching weapons. began to run towards the battlefield where the scuffle was taking place in the distance. But as soon as they stepped off the pier, everyone realized that something was wrong. Because in the dark night, everyone can''t tell the enemy from ourselves. I didnt dare to shoot at will, for fear of accidentally injuring my own people. Just when several people were at a loss, Kobayashi Hisakusaku''s scolding sound came from the darkness ahead: "Baga! Why are you here?" Those selected into the armed forces all know that Hisaku Kobayashi is their chief instructor. So, as soon as I heard the other party''s voice, I found the backbone in an instant. A panting Japanese voice said in the darkness: "Kobayashi-kun, it was Mizuno-dono who asked us to get the weapons to rush over to support." Kobayashi Hisaku was also confused, and said bluntly: "Baga! This idiot, This is a stupid command. You will immediately establish a new line of defense near the dock. Don''t allow anyone near the pier. Quickly, tell Mizuno-dono my opinion. " In the dark night, several people didn''t know who to listen to. There was a conflict between the leader''s order and the chief instructor''s order, but now the chief instructor is in front of him, and of course everyone can''t directly disobey the order. can only nod one after another. "Hay! Hay!" Take orders and turn around. These guys were also considered clever, and while turning around, they conveyed Kobayashi Hisakusaku''s order backwards. The crowd who rushed down the pier after a few people also followed them back to the pier to establish a line of defense. (end of this chapter) Chapter 328: crow mouth Chapter 328 Crow Mouth Kobayashi Hisakusaku''s order quickly reached Mizuno Shinichi''s ears, which made him obviously taken aback. But he knew that Hisaku Kobayashi was a veteran, and he knew how to fight. This is not the time to care about command conflicts. So, in the end, he chose to believe in the other party''s choice. Hastily ordered all those who received the equipment to establish a new line of defense on the dock. This order can be regarded as keeping his firepower advantage. In order to avoid falling into a dark passive situation again, And let people light a large number of torches 50 meters before the defense line. The chaos in the dark continued, and the Japanese clearly had the upper hand. And Kobayashi Hisaku, a veteran, has indeed played an important role. It turns out that he didn''t just set up a defensive circle of torches. Behind the torch defense circle, four lines of defense were arranged step by step, many tripping ropes were set up with rattan, and some small and messy pits were dug. This caused a lot of damage to those who made it through the circle of torches without being stopped. There are countless cases of falling and being injured and being surrounded by people after falling to the ground. For a while, the deadly charge organized by Big Beard and others failed to break through these layers of defense. was stopped in the jungle in front of the pier. Nathan, who had been standing behind and observing, quickly saw this situation. Especially when he discovered that circles of torches were lit in front of the pier, and behind the torches were rows of armed Japanese dwarfs. His whole body was spinning for a while. I secretly said in my heart: "It''s over!" At this time, the voice of the white-headed man Clay Hope came from beside him: "It''s over, let''s see if we can ask everyone to withdraw! Continuing to entangle, nothing will change. There are masters in these little Japans. " Nathan heard the words of the white-headed man Clay Hope, and did not turn his head, but said in a sad tone: "What''s the use of withdrawing? After tonight, the island will be dominated by the Japanese. In the future we will either be killed or live as slaves. " Vox and others on the fishing boat did not go far. Instead, he was quietly observing everything on the island with the help of a telescope. When you see a long line of torches burning in front of the pier, Devis Barry put down the binoculars in his hand, chuckled and said: "I didn''t expect that there are still some talents in Little Japan! No need to read, the overall situation is settled, let''s withdraw! " Vox may not have the vision of Devis Barry, but he can also see some situations. "You did it on purpose!" Hearing Vaux''s question, Devis Barry tilted his head and glanced at the other party, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he immediately returned to a serious expression and asked: "What on purpose?" Vox also put down the telescope in his hand, and after winding the rope on the telescope twice, he said: "The last few times you shone the flashlight on the crate, can you say it wasn''t intentional?" "Didn''t I point out to him where the goods are so that he can check them?" "It''s obvious that you took random photos, okay? Did you arrange the people who snatched the goods on the island?" Hearing Vox''s question, Devis Barry almost choked himself, and coughed a few times before saying: "Our trading partner is Little Japan, how could I arrange someone to grab the goods?" "Where did those people come from?" "how could I know?" "I feel that what you are doing is a little strange." "What''s strange?" "You don''t seem to care about the quality of this batch of goods, and you don''t even want the Japanese to get the goods smoothly." Vox stared at Devis Barry with slightly puzzled eyes, trying to see something from his expression. He was a little curious as to what unknown secret was hidden in it. Devis Barry noticed Vox''s curious eyes, with a half-smile expression on his face, looked at Vox beside him and said: "Do you really want to know? I can tell you!" Noticing the expression on the other person''s face, Vaux immediately became alert. It is better not to know too many secrets. The business was successfully completed, and the rest has nothing to do with him. I dont want to continue to participate in the business of such a big man in the future. So, he waved his hands again and again, smiled and said: "Forget it, I''d better take care of my business! I''m not interested in your affairs. " Devis Barry said jokingly: "Oh! You''re not curious at all?" "No no. I''m not curious. Now that the other party has signed to confirm the receipt of the goods, the rest is not my business. " Looking at Vaux''s vigilant face, his eyes seemed to say, okay! You don''t have to talk anymore. Devis Barry''s eyes flashed with admiration, I have to say that Vox is a smart person, he knows some secrets, the less he knows, the better. This made him think of his situation involuntarily, and a trace of sadness flashed in his heart unconsciously. Natal Naval Base, Logistics Division II. "Sir, I just received a telegram that the arms deal on the island has been completed. The Japanese completely received the arms. " A radio operator stands at Sirio Reich''s desk with a folder, reporting. "Oh! Didn''t the other two forces on the island respond?" Siriorich asked casually without raising his head. After all, they had deliberately released this batch of munitions, so he was not surprised that the batch of munitions could be delivered smoothly. Seeing that the officer did not seem to be planning to take the telegram and check it himself, the operator could only reply again: "The telegram said that the other two forces on the island joined forces and launched an attack on the Japanese, wanting to **** weapons. But the Japanese had been prepared for a long time and failed. " Hearing this, Sirio Leitch stopped what he was doing, raised his head and glanced at the operator and said: "Hehe. It seems that there are smart people among these Japanese! Call back: Pay close attention to the next move of the Japanese, report the latest progress at any time, pay attention to safety, and allow them to evacuate at any time if they can''t do anything. " As the intelligence agent of the second division of the logistics department, Sirio Reich must of course arrange for them to retreat. Early after they landed on the island, the navy had already sent a small boat to a hidden cliff on the edge of the island under the cover of night, and made the necessary camouflage. People who don''t know the situation can''t find it even if they walk up to them. Not far from the island, there are naval patrol ships, ready to respond at any time. "Yes, sir!" After the telegraph operator made the record, he took the order and left. After the telegrapher left, Sirio Leitch stood up in the office and turned around a few times. As if he had made up his mind, he followed to the telecommunications room and sent a telegram to Fang Lang in the United States. Early the next morning, Sirio Leitch had a call back. Found De La Torre who was on duty at the naval base. "Directly capture the ship that transported the arms?" Della Torre looked at Sirio Reich in surprise, he knew the identity of the other party. is also very aware of the other party''s ongoing actions. "Yes, sir! The people behind the scenes are now on this ship. The boss of the arms seller is also on this ship. This is a rare opportunity. They will lose contact with the land for a few days at sea. We will fight at sea and directly take down each other. Pry open their mouths, maybe they can get some substantial evidence. " Sirio Reich patiently explained to de la Torre why he wanted to directly implement the arrest. As the chief of staff of the fleet, de la Torre knew Fang Lang''s plan. Now that Sirio Reich has obtained Fang Lang''s consent, of course De La Torre will not have any objections. Looked at the telegram in his hand, and said to Sirio Reich: "Good! Now that the boss has decided. I will arrange for someone to assist you now. Since the House captured the opponent''s first munitions ship last time, let''s continue to arrange their cooperation this time! You can take your people and head straight to the pier. I will order House to fully cooperate with your actions. " Sirio Leitch was overjoyed when he heard that the chief of staff had arranged for a destroyer to cooperate with his arrest. Standing at attention and saluting: "Yes, thank you sir!" Della Torre also stood up and returned a salute, then said: "You''re welcome, we all work for the boss. I hope that you can pull out this black hand behind the scenes to meet the sun. Don''t give him the chance to continue hiding in the dark and throwing cold arrows. " As soon as Sirio Leitch heard what the chief of staff said, he understood that the other party also knew who was behind the scenes. also knew about this arms smuggling case, so he definitely couldn''t shoot the other party to death. However, through this case, the other party can be dragged out of the darkness and exposed in the public eye. Reduce his political influence. Sirio Reich, who received an affirmative answer from de la Torre, directly brought more than a dozen agents from the Second Division of the Logistics Department, and boarded the destroyer House. Fang Lang, who is far away in the United States, received a telegram from Sirio Reich last night. After thinking for a long time, I finally chose to end my military school inspection trip. Originally wanted to take Lilith back to Brazil directly. But Lilith said that there is still some time before the summer vacation. When he was preparing for the start of the summer vacation, he went to France to bring Vivienne, and then flew to Brazil for the summer vacation. Fang Lang naturally has no opinion on this. Finally, Fang Lang took the invitation to inspect the West Point Military Academy and the U.S. Naval Academy that he had promised to General Crook, and left the United States. When Fang Lang returned to the Natal Naval Base, Vaux and Devis Barry on the Atlantic Ocean were being stopped by the House on the Atlantic Ocean. Although it was the first time for the two of them to experience such a thing, they were not flustered. Because there are no contraband on board now, when the huge destroyer House issued a semaphore, ordering them to stop the ship for inspection. They simply chose to obey orders. After all, Vox just had a fishing boat under his command. Because he didn''t obey the order, he was forcibly boarded by the navy, and the ship was seized with munitions. cost him a lot, and now he has to take the risk of delivering the goods himself. At this moment, Vaux is rejoicing that all the munitions on board have been delivered, otherwise he would really lose his fortune this time. Although I dont know why, the Navys fleet will often check ships at sea recently. But as an underworld, he dare not show his teeth to the regular army. Gillard, the black man with an afro behind him, looked nervously at the two traffic boats on the sea that were being dealt with at high speed. and the fully armed Marine Corps soldiers on the boat swallowed hard: "Boss, do you want to throw the weapons in our hands into the sea?" Vox glared at him angrily and said: "What the **** are you talking about! Lock the guys in boxes, we''re just fishing boats. Let them check as they please. If you throw something into the sea at this time, dont you tell others clearly that we have a problem? Be **** smart, we''re fishermen, you know that? " His subordinates responded one after another, only Girard looked at Vaux with a constipated face and said: "But, boss, we don''t even have a single fish on board, will others not believe us and take us away!" Hearing this, everyone was taken aback. Immediately afterwards, Vaux kicked Girard: "Shut your crow''s mouth, isn''t it normal that we have just set out to sea and haven''t harvested yet?" (end of this chapter) Chapter 329: arrest Chapter 329 Arrest Gillard, who was kicked, still had a worried expression on his face. Devis Barry, on the other hand, looked calmly at the approaching traffic boat, his eyes flickering, and he didn''t know what he was thinking. Soon the traffic boat approached the fishing boat, and the two hook cables flew directly to the fishing boat, connecting the fishing boat with the traffic boat. The squad leader on the traffic boat shouted loudly: "Brazilian Navy patrol ship, we have received intelligence that we suspect that your ship contains contraband, and now we need to board your ship for inspection. Please raise your hands and stand still on the side of the ship, waiting for us to board. " Hearing the other party directly said that they suspected that they had contraband on board, Vaux''s heart skipped a beat. once again secretly said it was a fluke. hurriedly opened the mouth and said: "Sir, this must be a misunderstanding, we are just ordinary fishing boats. Absolutely no contraband, you are welcome to check at any time. " The squad leader on the traffic boat listened to his words with a serious expression, Raising his gun, he continued as if ready to fire at any time: "Whether there are contraband or not, you can decide for yourself. All of you raise your hands, stand on the side of the ship, and accept the inspection. " Looking at the opponent''s actions, Vaux knew that the opponent was not joking with him. hurriedly greeted the little brother beside him and said: "Didn''t you hear what the officer said? Get the **** out of here and stand up, put your hands up so the officer can see your hands. " As he said that, he didn''t forget to kick the younger brothers who were moving slowly around him a few times. He looked like a dog leg, and he didn''t have the aura of a gangster boss. This can''t be blamed on Vaux, if he doesn''t hate the Navy patrol? That is impossible, after all, the other party just confiscated his own ship of munitions, which caused him heavy losses. But he is a man of insight, the first time he saw these naval soldiers on the traffic boat, he felt a strong pressure. These people were completely different from the soldiers of the garrison regiment he saw in Recife, and he could feel the murderous aura in these soldiers at just one glance. Not the kind of person who holds a gun just to deter and scare you. Instead, if you find any abnormal behavior in you, you will not hesitate to shoot your real fighter. So, now he is very nervous, afraid that the younger brother will do something inappropriate and give others a reason to shoot at people like himself. If he died here for no reason, he would be wronged. It was hard for him to have the status he has today, and he still hasn''t fully enjoyed it yet! Besides, this is the sea, and they have no chance at all if they want to resist. Even if they can get rid of the people on the two traffic boats, there is still a huge destroyer not far away watching! If you really dare to resist, others will directly shoot at yourself and others. After much difficulty, everyone on the boat raised their hands neatly and stood on the side of the boat. The squad leader on the traffic boat made a gesture, and the soldiers of the Marine Corps rushed onto the fishing boat with weapons in their hands. The first time they boarded the ship, no one went to the cabin or other places to check. Instead, they took out handcuffs and handcuffed everyone standing on the side of the ship. This made Vaux and others panic, and they protested loudly, wanting to resist. But the soldiers of the Marine Corps don''t care what your reaction is. All those struggling to protest were knocked to the ground by the **** of a gun. Immediately, his head was bleeding, and everyone lost his voice. This fishing boat was not big, and there were only fifteen people on Voxs delivery belt this time including Devis Barry. Even the bodyguards who followed him every day were suspected of being German Wes Barry''s spy did not bring. So, although everyone tried to resist, they were quickly controlled. Vox repeatedly begged for mercy: "Sir, sir, there is a misunderstanding! There must be some misunderstanding here. We are just ordinary fishermen! Why are you handcuffing us! " After hearing Vox''s words, the squad leader of the Marine Corps smiled and said: "Fishermen? Have you ever seen a fisherman who doesn''t even smell like fish? " For a moment, Vaux didn''t know how to refute this sentence. He looked at Devis Barry beside him, but found that this guy had an indifferent expression the whole time. Although, I don''t know what the other party is thinking. But Vaux knew that he should have fallen this time. However, he was not worried. Although he was not a fisherman, it was impossible for the other party to find any contraband on the boat. In the end, he must be released. Even if any problem is found, at most it will be handed over to the police station for handling. The police station is not a navy fleet, he is covered by someone, sending him back to the police station is considered sending him home. Therefore, he quickly calmed down. When I looked at Davis Barry again, I couldn''t help admiring this guy. It seems that he has long wanted to understand all this. That''s why you are so calm! After controlling the personnel, the marines began to search everywhere on the ship, except for the weapons of several people found in several locked cabinets. Didn''t find anything else. Seeing this situation, Vaux breathed a sigh of relief. Just when he was thinking about whether to continue speaking and let these soldiers uncuff himself and others. The squad leader leading the team waved his hand directly and said: "Take them back." The soldiers responded in unison, and then began to **** them to the traffic boat. Vox has learned his lesson this time, so he wont say anything more. After being crushed onto the traffic boat, Girard, a black man with an afro, happened to be squatting beside him. Now Girard is obviously very flustered, lowering his voice and saying: "Boss, they won''t just shoot us!" Vox remembered that just before the marines boarded the ship, this guy said he would arrest them all, and now it really came true. Now that he is saying such terrible words on the sidelines again, Vaux is so angry that he wants to kick him off the boat. cursed in a low voice: "Girard, you bastard, if you can''t speak, stop talking in the future." People around are also cursing. Provoked a burst of punches and kicks from the soldiers. Even Devis Barry, who was on the side, couldn''t help but look at him with an expression of discovering a new species. Soon, they were crushed aboard the destroyer House. A gang of gangsters, where have I seen such a big guy. It was an exaggerated expression of a country bumpkin entering the city and Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. One by one, there were bursts of exclamation. Even Vox and Davis Barry were not immune. After everyone was escorted to the deck of the destroyer, a group of heavily armed soldiers ordered them all to squat down, and they didn''t forget to stretch their necks to look around. Until a white officer in his thirties with the rank of lieutenant and a small scar on his left forehead came to them. Like a lion king patrolling the territory, walking into them at will, And stopped in front of each of them, as if looking for someone familiar. After everyone had been watched by him, he came to Devis Barry and squatted down and said: "Mr. Devis Barry, nice to meet you!" Devis Barry, who had always been very calm, suddenly changed his face, and his pupils began to shrink violently. But soon, as if he was relieved, he let out a long sigh of relief, and his whole body relaxed. Vox on the side also felt his scalp tingle when he heard the other party''s words? Suddenly, I felt that something was wrong. It was not because I suspected that I and the others had contraband on board! Clearly means being clear about the situation of oneself and others, this so-called contraband inspection is clearly aimed at oneself. Devis Barry, who was relaxed, seemed much more casual. "Didn''t expect this day to come so soon?" Hearing Devis Barry answer himself like this, Sirio Leitch was a little surprised. "Oh! From this point of view, Mr. Devis Barry seems to have expected this day to come!" "Sir, this doesn''t seem like a place to talk!" Devis Barry looked around and smiled freely. The other party''s reaction was beyond Sirio Reich''s expectations, However, the attitude of the other party shows that he may not encounter any resistance this time. In this regard, he is happy to see it succeed. smiled and said: "Yes, Mr. Devis Barry is right." After finishing speaking, he turned his head and looked to the side, Vaux said: "This is Mr. Vaux! Then let me invite the two of you to have a good chat with me today, how about it. " At this moment, Vaux felt cold all over when he saw the smiling Sirio Leitch. Teeth chatter uncontrollably. It''s not that he is timid, but that at this moment he has some awareness that he may be involved in an incredible vortex this time. A bad one may be smashed to pieces. But he obviously had no way to refuse the request of the officer in front of him. Resisting the urge to urinate, Vaux trembled and said: "I, I listen to the commander." Sirio Leitch nodded in satisfaction, stood up and said to the few people who followed him: "Put these two first, find two rooms to separate and detain them, I want to chat with them alone." Several agents from the Second Division of the Logistics Department behind him responded in unison, and then walked into the crowd. After signaling the two to get up, he escorted the two to the room that had been prepared earlier. Sirio Leitch glanced at it, and the other boys squatting on the ground said: "The others will find a place to be detained together, and after the trial of the two men, they will be interrogated one by one." There are two more agents behind him, and they should be leading the order. Soon Devis Barry was taken to a cabin of the warship. The space was very small, and there was a small round window to see the scenery on the sea. The detective who escorted him in handcuffed him to an iron table. The position of the handcuffs is very tricky, just about ten centimeters above the knee height. He can only squat. If he stands up, he has to bend over all the time. If he is sitting, it is just right, but there is obviously no place for him to sit in this room. In this case, he can only continue to squat against the wall. The detective who escorted him in sat down behind the table, opened the notebook on the table, and didn''t speak, just looked at him quietly. At first, Devis Barry didn''t think there was anything wrong, as a bald head, he was very noticeable. Walking on the road, people often stare at him, and he is somewhat used to other people''s gazes. But something is not quite right today. The detective in front of him looked at him without any emotion at all, as if he was looking at a dead person. This made him shiver for no reason. After persevering for a while, he couldn''t help it, and he took the initiative to say: "Sir, didn''t I want to talk to you? Are you talking to me? " The agent ignored him and didn''t speak, just continued to look at him coldly. This made him feel a little shivering down his spine, as if he was being targeted by some ferocious beast, and the hairs all over his body stood on end. But he was tightly handcuffed in place, unable to move. Even if I wanted to change my posture, I couldnt do it, and soon my feet became numb. (end of this chapter) Chapter 330: Interrogation (1) Chapter 330 Interrogation (1) Devis Barry, who was squatting on the ground with numb feet, didn''t dare to look at the detective''s eyes, lowered his head unconsciously, and began to look away. I was a little relaxed at first, but now I became a little flustered. The more silent the other party is, the more uncertain he will be. In his opinion, he has some intelligence and information that the other party wants. If the other party wanted to obtain this information from him, they would definitely not dare to do anything to him. Maybe you can also negotiate terms with the other party. Save your own life. But the current situation seems to be somewhat different from what I expected. He thought that there would be such a day sooner or later, and he was already prepared. Otherwise, he wouldn''t ask for benefits from Vaux, that''s why he was looking for a way out for himself. Ever since his friend Jesse Colantono went off on a mission and never came back, he had a feeling that sooner or later he would follow in his footsteps. And the Eddie family''s handling of Jesse Colantono''s funeral also made him completely chilled, and he no longer had expectations for his future. Now it seems that my thoughts are too wishful thinking. He is very clear about who he is facing. But he didn''t expect that the other party would find them so quickly. The investigation team of the Ministry of Justice has not yet drawn any conclusions. Where did the other party find himself? Even his own name is clear to the other party, obviously the other party will not be ignorant of everything he and others have done. And the other party knew what he was doing this time, but he didn''t stop him. What is the purpose of the other party? Maybe everyone in the Eddie family has not realized that they have been exposed! Maybe everyone in the Eddie family is under surveillance by others! Thinking of this, he didn''t dare to take any chances in his heart. The time of cranky thinking passed quickly, and I don''t know how long it has been. The door of the cabin was opened from the outside, and the lieutenant officer who called his name outside came in. The detective who had been sitting behind the table stood up and saluted, and called out: "Section Chief!" The lieutenant waved his hand, signaling the other party to sit down. just sat beside him, smiled and said to himself: "Mr. Devis Barry, it''s really not suitable for talking outside, this place should be okay!" At this moment, Devis Barry looked at his handcuffed hands, and then at the surrounding environment. I kept comforting myself that this place is not bad, at least I wont be seen by others in my embarrassment. After two dry laughs, Devis Barry nodded and said: "Hehe. Sir, whatever suits you, I don''t care." Sirio Leitch smiled calmly and said: "Well! I really think it''s quite suitable. Since you like it too, it''s great." Devis Barry, who was squatting on the ground, felt bad after hearing this. When did I say I like it? Do I have a choice? However, of course he didn''t dare to say that, so he could only smile reluctantly. Sirio Leitch tapped the notebook on the detective''s desk beside him, indicating that it was time to start. Then he continued to ask Devis Barry: "Mr. Devis Barry, now that you are here, I believe you should have understood your situation. Can we have an honest chat? " If it was just coming in for a while, Devis Barry might have to put on airs and talk about conditions. But now seeing the other party''s attitude towards him, he no longer dared to continue holding it. Now that it has fallen into the hands of the other party, he never thought about being stubborn and devoted his allegiance to the Eddie family. Therefore, after hearing the other party''s question, he said without hesitation: "Sir, now that you have caught me. I''m sure there are a lot of questions that you''ve all mastered. I promise to know everything and say everything. " Seeing the other party''s expression of hope that he would be frank and lenient, Sirio Reich smiled and said: "Very good, I will explain your cooperation to Your Excellency the General. I believe that Your Excellency General will reduce the punishment as appropriate. " Hearing that the other party understood what he meant, and gave some promises verbally. Devis Barry was relieved. Sirio Leitch looked at Devis Barry on the opposite side, thought about it, and originally wanted to directly ask the question he wanted to know the most, But worried that the other party will play tricks with me, So after thinking about it, I decided to follow the normal interrogation process for questioning. "Name." Devis Barry did not expect that the other party would ask such an elementary question, However, as a bodyguard for the Deputy Minister of Justice, he understands that this is a routine procedure for all police interrogations. Anyway, he has already decided to confess, so he doesn''t hesitate. "Devis Barry" "gender" "male" "age" "39" "Profession" "Bodyguard" "employer" "Raymond Eddie, Chief of the Security Department of the Brazilian Police Headquarters" For Devis Barry''s cooperation, Sirio Leitch is very satisfied. Especially when the other party directly mentioned the employer''s name, he knew that this person really didn''t intend to hide anything from them. smiled and nodded: "Who organized this arms deal?" "Raymond Eddy" "Why buy so many arms to support the Japanese?" Regarding this question, Devis Barry hesitated for a while before saying with some uncertainty: "I don''t know the specific reason. But I guess it has something to do with one of Mr. Craig Eddy''s lovers. " This answer was obviously beyond Sirio Reich''s expectations. "Oh! It''s related to his father''s lover? Can you tell me more about it?" Devis Barry didn''t know whether his guess was accurate, but after thinking about it, he decided to tell what he knew. "This is just my guess, because the consignee''s name this time is Mizuno Shingi. And I was Mr. Craig Eddy''s bodyguard, He happened to know that he had a Japanese lover named Reiko Mizuno. " Sirio Leitch immediately understood what the other party meant. The consignee, Mizuno Shinichi, had the same surname as the lover of the other party''s former boss. Seriously observing the other party''s expression, Sirio Reich made sure that the other party should not be lying. But if this is the case, it will be different from the purpose of the Japanese that he originally guessed. However, this is only Davis Barry''s personal guess, and it is still impossible to confirm the other party''s real purpose. After thinking about it, he continued to ask: "Tell me about this situation called Mizuno Reiko!" Devis Barry recalled it seriously, and after carefully organizing the language for a while, he said: I remember this woman named Mizuno Reiko was sent to Rio de Janeiro by a man named Theodor Yacoub around 1935. Hearing this familiar name, Sirio Leitch''s brows twitched. He didn''t expect that this place had something to do with the Yakubu family. However, he didn''t make a sound, but quietly listened to the other party''s explanation. "This is a very beautiful woman, she should be about twenty years old at that time, and she has a personality completely different from that of Brazilian women. He has a good figure, fair skin, and is good at serving men. What impressed me was that every time Mr. Craig Eddy passed by, the woman would kneel and wait at the door, and change the shoes for him with her own hands. In short, this is a woman who will give men the supreme enjoyment like an emperor. So, Mr. Craig Eddy soon fell. Purchase a villa by the sea in Rio de Janeiro to house each other. As far as I know, this woman is not a simple vase. He used the relationship of Mr. Craig Eddy to start a business in Rio de Janeiro. Moreover, the business should be quite small, but I don''t know much about the specific situation. I have not seen this woman since Mr. Craig Eddy passed away. However, I feel that Mr. Raymond Eddy must know where this woman is. This woman should have paid for the purchase of arms this time. " Seeing Devis Barry''s drooling appearance, Sirio Leitch could understand what kind of attractive woman this is. But this also caused Sirio Leitch to fall into deep thought. This woman has been with the former Deputy Minister of Justice ten years ago, and she should have no intersection with Your Excellency the General! The purpose of the other party buying arms and arming the Japanese really has nothing to do with Your Excellency the General? "Listen to you, this Japanese woman was not deported?" Devis Barry nodded without hesitation: "Absolutely not, I''m sure of that." "Oh why?" "Hehe. Because she is a beautiful woman. Moreover, she has a lot of wealth in her hands. " As he spoke, he revealed a look that any man could understand, and raised his eyebrows at Sirio Reich. After hearing what the other party said, Sirio Reich laughed. "Listen to your expression, now this woman named Mizuno Reiko, could it be possible that she is your new boss''s woman?" Smiled, Devis Barry shrugged and said: "I haven''t seen it, but I feel like Reiko Mizuno is in Raymond Eddie''s hands. Otherwise, this arms deal would never have happened. Moreover, based on what I know about the Eddie family, although, there is no shortage of this money in the family. But this transaction did not use the family''s funds at all. At that time, Mr. Raymond Eddy went to Recife to buy arms with a whole box of cash. " "Is it June 5th, at the Tuya restaurant on Recifergett Street?" Devis Barry raised his head in shock when he heard this question, and looked at Sirio Reich. asked in disbelief: "You even know this?" No need to ask, seeing the other person''s expression, Sirio Reich knew the time and place were right. smiled a little unfathomably. "You have to believe that we are professional. If there is no solid evidence, will we rashly arrest you directly? " Devis Barry, who heard this, rejoiced secretly. Fortunately, he was not prepared to conceal anything, otherwise, if what he said did not match what the other party knew, he might suffer. Thinking of this, he couldn''t help being a little curious, the other party was obviously not a policeman, so who could be so professional? Looking at Sirio Leitch and the two nervously, said in a low voice: "May I know who you are?" "Well! How should I say it? We are a classified agency dedicated to military intelligence. As for the specific name of the department, dont inquire about it. Knowing too much is not good for you. " This answer made Devis Barry very nervous. Agent appeared in his mind, a term that appeared in novels. It made him no longer dare to take any chances. "Among the Eddie family, who are involved in this arms deal?" With Devis Barry''s confession, plus Vaux next to him, now Sirio Leitch has the witness of this arms transaction. Plus the first munitions ship seized by them. Now it can be regarded as witnesses and physical evidence. There is no longer any doubt about Raymond Eddie''s participation in the arms smuggling case, and it is only necessary to slowly fill in the entire chain of evidence later. Now, what Sirio Reich has to do is to figure out whether this is the collective behavior of the Eddie family or the private behavior of Raymond Eddie. (end of this chapter) Chapter 331: Interrogation (2) Chapter 331 Interrogation (2) Devis Barry thought for a while before answering: "As far as I know, this should be Raymond Eddy''s private behavior. Or the behavior of Raymond Eddie and Mizuno Reiko. No connection to the Eddie family. " Sirio Leitch didn''t find this answer strange at all. After all, judging from the current situation, it was true that only Raymond Eddie participated. But the Eddie family is a whole, since Raymond Eddie is moved, it will definitely attract revenge from the entire Eddie family. Neither Fang Lang nor Sirio Leitch would naively think that things ended here with Raymond Eddie. "OK, now let''s move on to the next question. What do you know about the death of your old comrade Jesse Colantono? " Devis Barry''s first reaction when he heard this question was that his pupils shrank sharply, and his entire back was instantly drenched in cold sweat. He is very clear about this matter, and it is two completely different cases from arms smuggling. If Raymond Eddie can still save his life by smuggling arms. This incident will definitely bring the entire Eddie family into a state of doom. But since the other party asked Jesse Colantono, he didn''t dare to bet that the other party didn''t know the situation. "I, I, I am not involved in this matter." Finally, Davis Barry could only suppress the panic in his heart, and replied in a slightly trembling voice. Sirio Leitch saw the cold sweat on the other''s bald head, and knew that this guy must know something. As for whether he really did not participate, or whether he pretended not to participate, it depends on their own subsequent investigations. "Whether you participate or not is not up to you, we will have our own investigation and judgment. What I have to do now is to honestly explain what I know. If the situation you explain is inconsistent with what we have, you must be prepared to bear the consequences of lying. So far, the communication between us has been smooth. I did not torture you in any way, But I want to tell you that using torture to extract the information we want from the enemy is our most basic skill. Hope you won''t want to try. " The tone is flat, as if telling you what dishes you can eat today. But hearing it in Devis Barry''s ears, the wind hit his back, and his whole body felt cold. Almost trembled. As a bodyguard, he was supposed to trade his life for money, so he shouldn''t be so vulnerable. But recent events let him know that even if he desperately kept all the secrets, his family will not get any compensation. That''s why he looks very resigned and no longer loyal. He was obviously able to listen to Sirio Leitch''s warning. Since everything about Raymond Eddy has been explained before, there is obviously no need to be stubborn now. "I understand! I must be honest. " Sirio Leitch didn''t want to talk too much with him, and asked directly and unceremoniously: "Then tell me what you know!" "He died in an assassination operation." "Clarify what assassination he died of. Since we asked about your body, do you think you can hide it? Be honest. " "Yes, yes. It was the assassination of the commander of the First Fleet of the Navy, General Fang Lang." "time and location." "May 26th, St. Paul." "Who is the mastermind?" "Raymond Eddie, Chief of the Security Department of the Brazilian Police Headquarters." Sirio Leitch has long prepared for this answer, and he very much hopes to get an answer to the question that he and his boss are most concerned about. So, he tried to keep his tone unchanged and continued to ask: "The reason? Why did he plan this assassination operation." The question brought Devis Barry to a brief pause, just when Sirio Leitch thought he couldn''t get an answer. The other party seemed to recall it before continuing: "I don''t know the specific reason. But I heard their discussion, it should be related to the dominance of the police system. As if to say yes, General Fang stretched his hand into the sphere of influence of the Eddie family. " Hearing this unexpected answer, Sirio Leitch immediately remembered the so-called police club. General Fangs meddling in the police system meant eradicating the Yakub family in Natal? Think about the woman named Mizuno Reiko, who was also given to Craig Eddy, the Deputy Minister of Justice, by the Yakubu family. It seems that Natal has been circulating that the saying that the Yakubu family has a deep background in Rio de Janeiro is really not groundless! It turned out to be the Eddie family. It is unlikely that the Eddie family would directly assassinate a naval fleet commander for the sake of the Yakubu family. Yes, Fang Langs series of operations later, such as forcing all police officers to participate in training, and opening a police school. The policy that stipulates that all police officers in Natal must graduate from the police academy or undergo training at the police academy made the Eddie family feel a great crisis and challenge. It should be what Devis Barry said just now, stretching his hand into the sphere of influence of the Eddie family! But from the standpoint of people like Sirio Reich, this is not something that encroaches on the interests of your Eddie family. Instead, it contributes to the advancement of the policing system. So, in his eyes, the Eddie family regards Brazil''s police system as their own private sphere of influence, and the act of not allowing others to get involved is simply an unforgivable crime. Because of Fang Lang''s rectification of the police system, the other party was even more furious at asking Fang Lang to assassinate him. But now is the time to interrogate Devis Barry, and he can only keep these thoughts in his heart. The anger in the eyes flashed away, and he continued to look at the other party calmly and said: "You just mentioned their discussion, who are they specifically?" Devis Barry didn''t dare to look at the other party''s reaction at this time, and he didn''t hesitate when he heard this question. continued to speak and replied: "Mr. Brisso Eddie and Raymond Eddie of Eddie''s family, There are also several old men of Mr. Craig Eddy. " "In other words, Mr. Brisso Eddie was also involved in the plan to assassinate General Fang, right?" "I don''t know if he was involved in the planning. However, it should be informed. " "Are the old subordinates of Mr. Craig Eddy you mentioned, all members of the Police Club?" At this time, Devis Barry was no longer surprised when he heard the other party mention the Police Club. nodded very calmly and said: "Yes, the current Mr. Raymond Eddy is the chairman of the Police Club. Mr. Brisso Eddie is no longer involved in the police club, and seems to be preparing to enter politics. The focus of work now is to assist former President Vargas to develop the Labor Party. " "So, this so-called police club is a tool used by the Eddie family to control the Brazilian police system, right?" "Ah! I don''t know this well, I''m just a bodyguard. If you want to know the true heart of the Eddie family''s secrets, there''s someone who can answer them. " "Oh! Tell me, who is this person?" "The butler of the Eddie family - Boots David, an old guy who has served their family for nearly forty years." This man, Sirio Leitch, didn''t have a grasp, but he believed that Devis Barry wouldn''t lie about this kind of thing. nodded and said: "Then what do you know about this police club?" "Uh! I don''t know much about it, but as far as I know, this club doesn''t seem to be founded by the Eddie family. It was just Mr. Credo Eddy who took over the operation of the club after the reform of the police system. " Seeing whether the other party really has no more information to provide, Sirio Reich nodded. Now I know what I most want to know. All that remains is to report to Fang Lang, and then start to formulate a counterattack plan against the Eddie family. On the other side of Vox, the interrogation is actually very simple. This is just a gangster, and has no affiliation with the Eddie family at all. Although, engaging in illegal arms trade will make him face a long sentence. But when all the criminal evidence was put in front of him, he had no room to deny it. Especially when he was told that he could get a reduced sentence if he was willing to serve as a tainted witness and identify Raymond Eddy. Almost without hesitation, he put aside everything he knew. Soon, two interrogation records were placed in front of Fang Lang. Seeing the contents inside, Fang Lang was silent for a long time. He did not expect that the reason why the Eddie family would attack him was because of his rectification of the Natal police system. Of course, this may only be one of the reasons. But this also proves the dirty politics and the poor methods of the Eddie family. In Fang Lang''s impression, political opponents, everyone should use political means to put opponents to death. Fang Lang didn''t understand what kind of person Credo Eddie was. But his son is indeed not a qualified politician, and he uses low-level methods such as assassination to deal with himself. Then dont blame yourself for killing yourself. I didn''t understand why the other party wanted to attack me, and I still had some doubts. But now there is a general direction, and conclusive evidence. Fang Lang is about to start seriously considering how to knock the entire Eddie family out of the dust. With a cup of tea, in Fang Lang''s mind, a complete plan had already taken shape. Walking to the desk, Fang Lang made a call. "Mr. Anderson, our TV station is on the air. Have you prepared any explosive news material?" "This is not explosive enough, I have a suitable news here. You arrange a camera crew to come over! " "Don''t worry, this news is definitely explosive enough." "Oh! You want to come over in person?" "No problem, I just have two ideas that I want to talk to you about. I believe it can make our TV station skyrocket." "Well, I am waiting for your arrival in Natal." Then, Fang Lang called his younger brother Fang Tao. "Tao''er, the Brazilian Times is now the largest newspaper in Brazil, right?" "That''s good, arrange two of the best political journalists to come to Natal to find me tomorrow. I have a big news here that needs to get out through them. " "You come here by yourself? No problem, then come with Mr. Anderson!" After hanging up two calls, Fang Lang''s mouth began to smile. The media empire I arranged in advance can finally start to play a role. Mr. Eddie, are you ready for the attack of public opinion? Hope you will like this gift. (end of this chapter) Chapter 332: breaking news Chapter 332 Breaking News The next day, Natal Naval Base, Fang Lang''s office. "Boss, what do you mean by breaking news?" Anderson, who rushed over from Rio de Janeiro early in the morning, looked at the spacious office seriously before he came, and he couldn''t wait to speak. Fang Lang smiled and pointed to the tea table beside him and said: "Don''t worry, let''s sit down and drink and talk." Said and invited Anderson to sit directly at the tea table. Fang Tao came to the place where Fang Lang worked for the first time, the naval base of Nuoda, the guards with live ammunition, the training scene in full swing, and the huge warship looming by the sea. Everything makes young people fascinated, and they wish they could join in. Under the guidance of adjutant Qi Qingshan, the two went through multiple inspections before entering the Nuoda naval base and arriving at the brother''s office. This is the first time Fang Tao knows how powerful his brother''s power is, which makes people feel awe unconsciously. Fang Tao, who was looking around in the office, came to the tea table after hearing Fang Lang''s words, and said enviously: "Brother, your office is really impressive." Fang Lang smiled and said: "What kind of a man am I, if you think, In the future, you can also prepare a big office yourself! Come and sit down, there is a big event for us to come here today. " Hearing Fang Lang''s greeting, Fang Tao also hurried over and sat down next to Anderson. By the time both of them came over to sit down, Fang Lang had already started to work on the tea table. "Mr. Anderson, how many audiences do we have on TV now! It wont be time to get big news, but no one will watch it! " After all, the TV station has just been established, and the signal network has just covered major cities in Brazil, and the official broadcast of programs has not yet begun. Buying a TV back home has no effect. Therefore, there are almost no private purchases of TV sets in Brazil. The current TV sets are all for promotion, and they are placed for free in some crowded public areas for display. "Boss, please rest assured! Now we have launched more than 2,000 TVs in Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo alone. Other, each state has at least three hundred televisions. are all in places with the most dense traffic, you dont have to worry about it, there is no audience. After our program is aired, TV sales will definitely be on the right track. If the big news you mentioned is strong enough, it will definitely make the promotion of our TV station faster. " Hearing that Anderson wanted a really big news inside and outside the words, Fang Lang didn''t continue to keep it secret, and smiled and said: "Is it big news that the head of the Public Security Department of the Police Headquarters sells arms?" After hearing this, Anderson, who was full of expectations, turned bitter and said: "Boss, don''t you know much about big news! Among the officials of the Brazilian government, are there still few people who are corrupt and enrich their own pockets? This is hardly big news. " Fang Lang looked at Anderson''s expression and smiled. He didn''t expect this guy to have such an understanding of Brazil''s political ecology not long after he arrived in Brazil. Fang Lang just smiled about this situation, and didn''t want to change anything. This is not so easy to change, and it might cause public outrage. Now he doesn''t have that much ability to fight against the whole society. First manage his family''s company well, as long as no one dares to embezzle and accept bribes in his company. As for the Brazilian government, forget it. "What if the other party sent the general fire to the Japanese?" Fang Lang continued unhurriedly. Anderson knew about the Japanese mob attacking the presidential palace, which led to widespread anti-Japanese public opinion in Brazil. Everyone pays more attention to the news related to the Japanese. The head of the Public Security Department of the Brazilian Police Headquarters sent arms to the Japanese, which is indeed big news. Anderson''s sitting posture is a little more formal. After thinking about it, he said: "If this is the case, it can be regarded as big news. Unfortunately, it''s still not explosive enough. " Fang Lang smiled, did not speak, but continued to make tea in his hand, and after the tea was brewed, he handed a cup to Anderson. Handed another cup to Fang Tao. Fang Tao has also been listening to the conversation between the two. As a graduate of journalism, he is also the manager of Brazil Times. I am very interested in this news. After glancing at Anderson and Fang Lang, he smiled and said: "Brother, this news may not be exciting enough for the TV station as the opening news. However, you can publish it in Brazil Times! For a mature media like ours, this news can be regarded as breaking news. " Anderson also nodded aside, took a sip of tea before laughing: "Yes, boss! This news to Brazil Times can definitely make the headlines on the front page. Expand newspaper sales. But as the opening news of the TV station, it is indeed almost meaningless. " Fang Lang smiled noncommittally at the opinions of the two, and added tea to their teacups. Then, You picked up the tea in front of you, took a sip, and then said slowly: "What if the Japanese used these arms to create a massacre in Brazil?" He was holding a small teacup, and Anderson, who disliked the small amount of tea, heard this and stood up from his chair with a bang. Looking at Fang Lang in disbelief, he said: "Boss, is this true?" Fang Tao on the side had just tasted the fragrance of some tea when he heard what his brother said. A mouthful of tea soup sprayed out like a fountain. Fortunately, he reacted in time and turned his head to one side, otherwise he would have to wash his brother''s face with tea. Seeing this, Fang Lang pulled out a towel from his hand, threw it over, and muttered something. "I''m not young anymore, my hands and feet are wobbly, please wipe it off quickly." Fang Tao took the towel casually, wiped the corners of his mouth indiscriminately, and asked directly while wiping the wetted area: "Brother, are you serious? Little Japan really dares to cause massacres in Brazil. " Anderson stared at the boss closely, hoping to see the truth of the news from Fang Lang''s expression. He is very clear that if this news is true, this is definitely not an explosive news that has caused a sensation in Brazil. If it is done properly, it can even become a global breaking news. But Fang Lang didn''t seem to feel the eagerness of the two at all, holding a towel to wipe the tea table wet by the tea sprayed by Fang Tao. After a long while, after wiping quickly, seeing Anderson still standing, he smiled and said: "Don''t worry, sit down and talk slowly." After speaking, he handed the towel to Anderson and said: "Anderson, wipe up the tea you spilled over there, so as not to wet your clothes." At this moment, Anderson was very anxious, looking at Fang Lang still looking calm. Almost jumped in a hurry. But the other party is the boss, so he can only follow the other party''s instructions and use a towel to wipe off the tea that was spilled because he was too excited just now. Handed the towel back to Fang Lang. Fang Lang smiled and found the towel handed over by the other party. Pointing to the tea stool to signal the other party to sit down, he smiled and said: "Since I have already called you over, the news is of course true. Don''t forget, I am the boss of the company, so of course I hope the company can get off to a good start. " "Brother, this news is really amazing. This is big news that can cause an earthquake in Brazil! Where this incident happened, we will immediately arrange for people to conduct interviews and reports. " Fang Tao was young after all, and said impatiently. Anderson obviously needs to be more mature, now that the boss has confirmed that this is true. And let myself bring the film crew over, I will definitely not let myself go in vain. So, he sat down slowly, picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and then took a long breath. "Boss, this news is really explosive enough, If this news is used as the opening news, our TV station will definitely be able to take off directly. The future will also be an important moment in history. " Fang Lang smiled and said: "However, to report this news, we have to go through several steps, we can''t just serve the main course. News needs continuous fermentation, and then a violent explosion, in order to achieve a huge effect. Afterwards, continuous deep digging is required to maintain sufficient heat. So, I plan to warm up the newspapers first, starting from reporting simple arms deals, and digging deeper step by step. Finally, the news of the massacre was released by the TV station in the form of video. Directly explode the hot news. Then, the TV station will connect the news before and after, and invite famous commentators to comment on the news program. This will definitely achieve an explosive effect. And, enough news to keep us scrolling for over a week. " Fang Lang''s words made Anderson and Fang Tao excited and clapped their hands. Anderson couldn''t wait to speak directly: "Boss, I didn''t expect you to know the news so well. The idea you mentioned of inviting famous commentators to comment on news programs is really great. This news can definitely catch people''s attention. What are you waiting for? Let''s get started now! Please tell me about the massacre, where it happened, and I will send my camera crew to film it now. " Fang Tao is also gearing up to get started. "Brother, tell me where are the people involved in the case, and I will start organizing interviews immediately. The first news will be in the newspapers tomorrow. " Coughing twice, Fang Lang pressed his hand, signaling the two of them to be safe and not to be impatient. After refilling the tea in front of the two of them, he slowly opened his mouth and said: "Don''t worry, I will have someone provide you with all the evidence and details of this case. Including the relevant personnel of the case, it is also within our control. So, don''t worry. Now, what I want to tell you is that I asked you to report this news, not just to give you a breaking news. You are all my own people, and I have nothing to hide. Actually, this is my revenge against the Eddie family. Let this matter be exposed, and expose what Raymond Eddie did to the public directly, which is equivalent to starting a war with the Eddie family. So, once you start reporting, you guys are definitely going to be under a lot of pressure. I hope you can withstand the pressure and thoroughly expose the truth to the public. " Fang Lang''s words stunned both of them. Fang Tao directly asked with a puzzled expression: "Brother, do you have an enmity with this Eddie family?" Anderson thought more, and was a little worried that this news might be a fake news concocted by Fang Lang in order to retaliate against others. But think about it, the other party is his own boss, even if the news is fake, he must find a way to make him true. As for the pressure, I am an American, and you Brazilian government officials, what pressure can you give me. If you really dare to threaten me, I will stab you directly to the US embassy. (end of this chapter) Chapter 333: International event Chapter 333 International Events Hearing Fang Tao''s question, Fang Lang didn''t hide it. After taking a sip of tea, he slowly said: "They were the masterminds behind the assassination of me in Sao Paulo some time ago." "what?" Fang Tao stood up immediately, clenched his fists with both hands, gritted his teeth and said: "It turned out to be this bastard, so what else is there to say, This is an endless feud. Brother, since they dare to kill us, we can''t be too kind to them. " Fang Tao''s subtext Fang Lang can understand that he wants to kill the opponent directly. According to Fang Lang''s plan, of course he will kill the opponent in the end, but not now. So, Fang Lang just smiled and said: "Don''t worry, now that I have found them, they will definitely be punished. But the time is not now. What we have to do now is to remove the political influence of the other family first. Let their house become street rats, This requires the power of your media, do you understand? " Although Fang Tao didn''t understand his brother''s thoughts, he unconditionally supported his brother''s plan. It is obvious that this case is going to be passed now to tarnish the reputation of the Eddie family. It is not difficult for Fang Tao, who holds Brazil Times, to achieve this. So, he nodded without hesitation: "Brother, I understand what you mean. I listen to you, and I will do what you say. " Anderson on the side, listening to the conversation between the two brothers, knew that the other party regarded him as his own and had no taboos on himself. He feels very relieved, he is an old media person. The methods of the media are also very clear. After thinking about it for a while, Anderson still said: "Boss, according to your plan, the Chief of Public Security of the Police Headquarters will definitely be ruined. However, we must ensure that the chain of evidence in this case is complete. Can''t let the other party find any loopholes to get away. " As he spoke, he blinked at Fang Lang. Fang Lang understood what Anderson meant at a glance. He was worried that the news was fabricated by himself to frame the other party. Remind yourself to complete the evidence chain to avoid being caught by the enemy. Fang Lang laughed and said: "Don''t worry, Mr. Anderson, I didn''t make up this case. It was actually planned and implemented by the other party. But obviously the other party''s luck was relatively bad. When they were transporting the first ship of munitions, they happened to be bumped into by my fleet. This can also be regarded as God personally sent the evidence to my hands. If I dont make good use of it, Im sorry for Gods painstaking efforts, arent I? " Anderson saw Fang Lang''s frank face, and understood that it was his villain''s heart that judged the gentleman''s belly. Picked up the teacup and took a sip to cover up his embarrassment before saying: "That''s good. Looks like God is on our side, doesn''t it? Ha ha" Fang Tao also laughed loudly and said: "Haha. Of course, we represent justice." Hearing Fang Tao''s words, Fang Lang laughed, and poured tea for the other party before saying: "The problem now is that the place where the Japanese carried out the massacre was on a small island. If we go directly to the island to record, we may startle the snake. Arouse the vigilance of the other party. So, trying to find a way, See if we can capture the footage we want without being perceived as knowing that there was a massacre and not doing anything to stop it. Being kidnapped morally and accused. " Actually, Fang Lang is not sure whether there will be a massacre on the island. All of this is just his speculation, but he certainly can''t tell Anderson directly. Wouldnt it be like this? I could obviously stop this massacre, but I just watched and didnt take action to stop it? If someone caught this point, it would become an indelible stain. Of course, Fang Lang is very sure that there will be a massacre on the island, even if the Japanese dare not or are unwilling to do so, He will also find a way to guide or force the other party to do so. Because, only in this way can the impact of this matter be magnified. Knock Raymond Eddy into the dust. Anderson touched his chin incomprehensibly, and after thinking about it, he said in doubt: "You mean, the island is full of Japanese now, The massacre was blocked by them, right? " Fang Lang nodded, spread his hands and said: "Yes, the Japanese on the island had a battalion of weapons. This news is the intelligence I sent people to infiltrate the island. I want to go to the island to shoot, or get permission from the Japanese, but this is absolutely impossible. After all, they belonged to a group of people who were expelled from the country, and their appearance on this island was already a secret they had to hide. Once someone finds out, they will be silenced. So, it was impossible to allow us to go to the island to shoot. Another way is that we attack the island and control all the Japanese before shooting. But this is an island where prisoners are exiled and is managed by the police headquarters. Once the news of the Japanese on the island spreads, the police will definitely be responsible for handling it. The Eddie family controls most of Brazil''s police system. If it is handed over to the police, this news will definitely be suppressed. It is impossible for people to know that there was a massacre on the island. It is not impossible to sneak into the island to take a sneak shot, but the danger is too high. We cannot risk our own lives. " Hearing Fang Lang''s analysis, Fang Tao and Anderson also fell into deep thought. Fang Tao said directly with a depressed face: "Brother, aren''t you the Navy? Can''t we send troops to the island directly? " Fang Lang shook his head and said: "No, that is an island where prisoners are exiled, and it is under the management of the police headquarters. Our navy cannot launch military operations there without legitimate reasons. If you need to go to the island, you must also apply to the police headquarters through the Ministry of the Navy in advance, and make specific instructions. However, in this case, it will also scare the snake. " Anderson on the side, propping his chin with his left hand, mosuoed back and forth on the stubble on his chin, thinking, and said: "If that''s the case, can we create a, What is the legitimate reason for the navy to land on the island urgently? " Hearing this, Fang Lang''s eyes lit up. This is a new way of thinking. After pondering for a while, Anderson continued: "Since it is an island where prisoners are exiled, it must be very dangerous. If one of our reporters accidentally falls in, can we ask the Navy for emergency help? " Fang Lang thought about it, and then said: "It''s not impossible, but this request for help must find a way to bypass the police headquarters. Directly let places like the presidential palace issue orders. I can dispatch the warship closest to the island in an emergency, and the rest is easy to say. But our reporters obviously don''t have that much influence. " "Hey, what if it''s an American reporter?" Anderson chuckled. "Of course there is no problem if there are American reporters, It is best to go through diplomatic channels, such as the US ambassador directly asking the president for help. Then, we can definitely bypass the police headquarters and go directly to the island. " Fang Tao on the side heard the conversation between the two, and asked a little weakly: "However, why did the American journalists end up on an island where Brazilian prisoners were exiled for no reason? Won''t this cause diplomatic disputes? " Anderson smiled and said: I know a journalist friend who is a photojournalist for National Geographic magazine, Always around the world, shooting some natural beauty. Based on my relationship with him, I can definitely invite him to come over and shoot a video about Brazil''s natural environment for our TV station! " Fang Tao still hesitated and said: "But, knowing that there is danger on the island, would he be willing to take the risk?" Anderson smiled confidently, and said with confidence: "Do not worry! He is a natural explorer, he likes to run wherever there is danger. Absolutely will not shrink back because of fear of danger. " Fang Lang is not surprised at all. There are indeed many Americans with this kind of death-defying personality. In later generations, Fang Lang has seen a lot, so he will no longer be surprised. As soon as Anderson''s plan came out, he knew there was something going on. If an American appears in this story, it will definitely expand the influence of this matter, and even cause an uproar in the United States. At that time, no matter how much political influence the Eddie family has, it is impossible for them to be able to suppress this matter. Because of this matter, it will become an international event. Brazil Times news channel with first-hand information will become famous all over the world. Of course, the Brazilian government will definitely lose face in front of the world. But, what does this have to do with Fang Lang? As long as his Marine Corps can perform brilliantly when the time comes to seize the island, instead of being punished, he will be commended. After figuring out the various joints, Fang Lang smiled with satisfaction. At this time, he suddenly remembered what Anderson said just now, and said in surprise: "Did you just say National Geographic?" Anderson smiled when he heard Fang Lang''s question: "Yes! What''s wrong?" It''s not that Fang Lang is rare, but mainly because this magazine is so famous. He can often see him in later generations. I just didnt expect that this magazine would be launched so early. Seeing something good, Fang Lang''s first thought was to get it in his pocket, although he didn''t know if the magazine made money. But he can survive a hundred years, obviously there is something special about him. Fang Lang turned his head and glanced at Fang Tao, who was still thinking on the sidelines, and said: "Tao''er, after returning home, arrange for someone to evaluate this magazine, If there is an opportunity, see if it can be brought under your media group. " Fang Tao on the side was stunned, looked at Fang Lang with a blank face and said: "what?" Anderson obviously did not expect that Fang Lang would suddenly issue such an order. He thought it was to let this reporter become his employee, so he was relieved? But the boss is rich, and he wants to buy everywhere and expand the influence of the media group. He has no reason to refuse. Seeing that Fang Tao was still unresponsive, Anderson kicked Fang Tao under the table. Feeling the strength under his feet, Fang Tao glanced at Anderson, then nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay." Anderson saw Fang Lang and didn''t give a clear answer to his proposal. Instead, he began to think about acquiring National Geographic. So, I took the initiative to say again: "Boss, what do you think of my plan? At that time, I will let him rent a boat in his own name. Guaranteed not to make anyone think of us. " Fang Lang smiled and nodded: "Since you are invited in the name of helping us photograph the Brazilian natural environment, then do it aboveboard. Don''t be afraid of people contacting us. After the incident was really exposed, we were invited through normal channels. What problems could there be? I think your idea is very good. Our TV station simply set up a program "Man and Nature", Take pictures of some natural beauty and primitive animals in nature, and popularize some knowledge of nature to people. Still, are you sure he''s your friend? " (end of this chapter) Chapter 334: TV show Chapter 334 TV Shows Anderson understood that the boss agreed with his idea. Regarding the boss''s last question, Anderson asked a little strangely: "Of course, boss, his name is Brett Rimmer. is a very good photojournalist. " Seeing that Anderson didn''t seem to understand what he meant, Fang Lang coughed lightly and said: "Anderson, don''t you understand that the island is full of Japanese now. Once a foreigner appears, they may be silenced directly. Not to mention a foreigner with photography equipment. I thought he might not have had any chance of surviving at all. Are you sure you want to put your friends on an adventure? " Look at Fang Lang who has a weird expression on his face, and look at Fang Tao who is looking at him with the same expression. Anderson smiled and shrugged: "Boss, don''t worry! I know what that means, and Brett Rimmer is really a friend of mine. But he''s a crazy guy with skills. Once alone, I went to the African savannah to photograph lions. He once told me that he enjoys the pressure of dying at any moment. If there is such an explosive news, he will be angry if I don''t tell him. " Fang Lang didn''t understand this strange brain circuit very much. But this matter is in his own interests as a whole. As for the safety of this American, Fang Lang has no way to guarantee it. If he can survive, Fang Lang will definitely find a way to give him enough compensation. Of course, even if he didn''t survive, he would ask Anderson to give him some compensation in the name of the program group. "Okay then! You can contact him. I agree with your plan. Regardless of whether he survives or not, we must give him enough rewards. " Hearing that the boss accepted his suggestion, Anderson was very happy, Because it gives him an important sense of involvement. Regarding the idea of ??the boss wanting to compensate Brett Rimmer, Anderson smiled and said: "Boss, in fact, Brett Rimmer is not short of money. If we offer him compensation, he may not accept it. However, if you can give him full authority to produce the program "Man and Nature" you just talked about. I think he will be very positive. This way we also get a best videographer. " Fang Lang didn''t care about such trivial matters at all. nodded and said: "no problem. Then this matter is settled like this. When you leave, I will arrange someone to take you to learn more about the case. But before that. I want to discuss with you a new idea about improving TV ratings. " Before Anderson came over, Fang Lang had already mentioned some new ideas on the phone, I thought it was just the idea of ??inviting professional commentators in the news to conduct discussions. But just mentioned it, there was no collective explanation, so when I heard that the boss wanted to discuss this matter, I immediately cheered up. He took out a notebook from his backpack and said: "Boss, is the show about that news commentary you just brought up? This is truly a genius idea, can you elaborate? " Fang Lang was taken aback. What he was going to say was not about this, but when he heard Anderson''s question, his heart moved. It reminds me of some familiar programs in later generations. After thinking about it carefully, Fang Lang coughed lightly, organized his words and said: "Ahem! That was indeed one of my thoughts. Since you asked about the show, let''s start with this! My idea is that we can make a special hot topic news commentary program, The name of the program, you guys think for yourself. The main idea of ??the production is to invite some eloquent experts and scholars to discuss a current event and hot news on the program. and express their own opinions. When inviting, we should pay attention to it. It is best to invite two groups of people who disagree with each other to debate each other on the program. And the moderator is responsible for coordinating from it. However, the host should not easily express his opinion on one thing. You can guide the direction of public opinion by giving people with the same views as yourself more opportunities to speak. For example, for this big incident of the Japanese massacre, we can continuously produce several episodes of the program! From the introduction of the situation in Japan, analyze the character of the Japanese, and what the Japanese did in the two world wars. Then why did the Japanese come to Brazil, what did they do in Brazil. The last time the Japanese mob attacked the presidential palace, can it be discussed! Of course, the most important thing is to lead out that the Japanese carried out an inhuman massacre in Brazil this time. Criticism of the Japanese must be launched in an all-round way. Let all Brazilians realize the inferiority of the Japanese. " Anderson listened to Fang Lang''s description, and the more he listened, the more excited he became. With the pen in his hand, he kept writing and drawing in his notebook. It feels like a new world has opened up. The whole idea suddenly became clear. Impatiently said: "This is really great, boss. Trust me, this show is going to be a blast. But if we are discussing the massacre of Japanese people, we should not be able to find opponents! After all, it is impossible for anyone to approve of massacre! " Looking at Anderson''s expression of finding a treasure, Fang Lang''s vanity was satisfied like never before. Wow haha, rebirth is indeed the biggest cheat! "This kind of thing must be opposed by everyone! But we can let two groups of people analyze this matter from different angles! On the one hand, criticize the bad nature of the Japanese, and on the other hand, can you pull out the Eddie family and repeatedly rub against it! " "Haha. I see, boss! I know what to do. " Anderson laughed loudly and nodded repeatedly. "In addition to this hot topic analysis, we can also do a live interview show! However, this kind of program is a test of the host''s skills. Words should be sharp, point to the point, and be able to express the innermost thoughts of the interviewee. Only in this way will there be enough topicality to attract widespread attention and heated discussions in the society. " Fang Lang also thought of what to say, he remembered that the format of the show in later generations was also very likable. Now Anderson is simply amazed by Fang Lang, with all kinds of different ideas emerging one after another. But clearly, these ideas are practical. This made him afraid to miss every word of the boss, so he kept writing and drawing in his notebook. Fang Tao on the side also looked at his brother as if he was looking at a monster. You must know that television is a new thing in Brazil, and he himself has studied with Anderson for a long time. Only have a certain understanding of this new form of communication. Up to now, he still has a lot of things that he hasn''t figured out, but his brother, who has never studied in detail, is able to put forward so many suggestions with ease. Moreover, now it seems that these ideas are indeed feasible. This made him very frustrated. Why is there such a big difference between himself and his brother? We are brothers of the same father and mother! Fang Lang didn''t know what the two people on the opposite side were thinking at this time, he just said what was in his mind first. Of course, these are about the news, but were not just a news channel. It is also impossible to only broadcast news, there is not so much news for us in the world, is there? Therefore, we need some programs that can attract the audience, make people linger on, want to stop, and watch every day. TV dramas are a very good choice. We need to choose more excellent actors and create some TV series that are close to the lives of our Brazilian people. to enrich the spiritual world of our Brazilians. " When talking about this issue, Fang Lang came up with a new idea, That is, some Chinese elements can be added to the TV series, so that people who watch TV can accept the baptism without knowing it. Thinking of this, another new program appeared in Fang Lang''s mind. That''s a sitcom, It seems that I have to find an opportunity to create a script, and I need to add a few Chinese characters in it. The most important thing is to portray the Chinese characters in the play as hardworking and kind, but also powerful and inviolable. Let all Brazilians subtly agree that Chinese people have this image. Also set a positive example for the Chinese in Brazil. At the same time, some Chinese elements such as Chinese food, Chinese Kung Fu and Chinese festivals can also be spread in the program. Hearing the TV series, Anderson also nodded repeatedly: "Boss, I have thought about TV dramas before. My idea is to introduce some TV series that the audience likes directly from the United States. " Fang Lang knew the role of TV dramas in the dissemination of cultural value, and wanted to refuse to introduce them from the United States. However, considering the current situation in Brazil, if a local TV series in Brazil is about to be released, it should not be easy. Its better to use an American TV series first, and then use your own script to shoot after your own script is written. When the time comes, after the filming of my own TV series is finished, I will directly connect to it. Here I want to explain that the earliest TV series should have appeared in 1930, and it was broadcast by the British Broadcasting Corporation, "The Sweet Talker", also called "The Man with the Flower in His Mouth". After so many years of development, by 1946, many TV dramas had appeared. It is not difficult to introduce it. Fang Lang nodded and said: "no problem, After you have selected a suitable TV series, remember to send it over for me to choose. But the introduction of TV dramas is only a stopgap measure, We will eventually shoot our own TV series and cultivate our own TV drama talents. " After finishing speaking, he glanced calmly at Fang Tao who had been sitting beside him. Unfortunately, Fang Tao obviously couldn''t understand what his brother was thinking, and still had an expression of listening carefully. Although Anderson doesn''t know much about the boss''s idea of ??personally checking the TV series. But certainly not rejected. The more the boss pays attention, the more he attaches importance to the TV station. At that time, the investment in TV stations will also increase. "Yes, boss, At that time, I will go to have a good chat with my old club, Once there is a suitable TV series, it will be sent to you for review as soon as possible. " Fang Lang is very satisfied with Anderson. The current Brazilian TV stations are basically supported by him alone. After the program takes shape, it will be officially launched soon. At that time, it will become a trump card in the hands of the media group. But although satisfied, and trust him. But in the end, there are some things that are not suitable for talking to the other party. For example, regarding the strategic level of cultural export, even the Americans have not yet begun to study it. If I reveal some of this point of view to him, it might be used by the US government in advance. With Fang Lang''s strength, there is definitely no way to defeat the American media industry. These things can only be discussed privately with Fang Tao behind closed doors, and the specific operations will definitely be handed over to Fang Tao. (end of this chapter) Chapter 335: football League Chapter 335 Football League Fang Lang glanced at Anderson, who was still writing, and then at his younger brother, who was thinking seriously. After coughing twice, he said: I have a bigger plan for the TV show. I wonder if you know anything about sports events? " Hearing Fang Lang said that he had a big plan, Anderson immediately looked up at Fang Lang. Fang Tao on the side was also taken aback when he heard the words. Of course, when I was in the United States, I would often bring my family to watch American football games, which was really exciting! what! I understand. Boss, do you want to broadcast this kind of sports competition? " After hearing what Anderson said, Fang Tao said in a puzzled way: "American football? Is there any difference between American football and football?" Anderson seemed to become very excited when he heard this topic, and hurriedly explained: Of course its different. American football is actually rugby, and you can touch the ball with your hands. The game adopts the offensive and defensive line round-based scrimmage. Each attack is counted as a meeting, and there is no movement limit. Compared with football, it emphasizes team assistance and physical contact confrontation. Everyone is wearing tight protective gear and engaged in fierce physical confrontation. Very watchable. " Fang Tao is obviously not a young man who loves sports, so he didn''t have much interest in Anderson''s words. However, he knows very well what sports are the most popular in Brazil. So, he said without hesitation: "But, everyone in Brazil plays football!" These words left Anderson speechless. Seeing this, Fang Lang laughed loudly and said: "Hahaha Anderson is right, I really want to show sports on TV. The key point is the football game Fang Tao just mentioned. Football is very popular in Brazil, or in the whole of South America, In the Copa America football match held in Chile in January this year, although, we only won the runner-up. But it also aroused the enthusiastic attention of the Brazilian people. I believe that if we can let people watch football matches on our TV, we will definitely gain a large number of viewers. " Anderson nodded. He believed that this kind of sports competition could indeed attract many spectators. After all, the United States already has successful experience. But he was still a little puzzled and said: Showing a football game is a really cool idea, but that doesnt seem like a particularly big plan, does it? Fang Tao also felt that it was only a football game, which was at most a TV program. It doesn''t seem to have much to do with the big plan that Fang Lang said. Fang Lang looked at the puzzled expressions of the two, smiled and said: Just broadcasting football games, of course, is not a big plan. What I want to do is to organize a national football league and have a championship game every year. And our TV station directly broadcasts the whole process. " Fang Tao is a Brazilian who grew up in Sao Paulo, although he is not the kind of character who loves sports. But I still have a certain understanding of Brazilian football. Looking at his brother in surprise, he said: "National League? But now it seems that only Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro have their own football leagues. Other regions do not have professional football clubs because of their underdeveloped economy. Will this so-called national league not be easy to achieve! " In fact, in 1888 Brazil''s first football club - Sao Paulo Football Club was established. This club is also a well-established giant in Brazilian football, having gone out of a series of football superstars such as Kaka, Cafu, and Ze Roberto. In 1901, Sao Paulo State established its own league, which is also the earliest football league in Brazil. By 1906, the state of Rio de Janeiro also established its own league. But Brazil''s economic development is extremely uneven. The two states of Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro are located on the southeast coast, and the population accounts for almost 60% of the entire Brazil. Although the two states established their own leagues early, the other states have not developed at all. Even if the Brazilian Football Association was established in 1914 and joined FIFA, it did not change this status quo. The history of the Brazilian league fighting against each other lasted for a long time. It was not until 1959 that the first national competition, the "Brazilian Champions Cup", was held. And Fang Lang''s current plan is to advance this time. It is precisely because there are not many football clubs in other states that we have the opportunity to come forward and organize such a national league. If this matter is done by the media company of our Fangyuan Group. Then we will surely leave a mark in history. " No one knows better than Fang Lang how brilliant the future of Brazilian football will be. Although the Brazilian football of later generations has slowly begun to decline, Even, Brazil''s football league is not ranked among the top five leagues in world football. But no one can ignore Brazil''s influence on world football. Unfortunately, Fang Tao obviously couldn''t understand Fang Lang''s thoughts! Because, Brazilian football in this period has not yet reached its later glory. In the Copa America, Uruguay and Argentina have been chasing behind. Of course, this also has a certain relationship with Brazil''s apartheid policy at that time. Before 1930, Brazilian football players were mostly white players who were born relatively wealthy. It wasn''t until President Vargas came to power that the apartheid policy was lifted, so that non-white players from poor backgrounds had the opportunity to participate in professional leagues. It is precisely because football is a national sport in Brazil and is deeply loved by people. The strength and fighting spirit shown by the non-white players made white people begin to accept the excellence of other races, and it also strengthened the recognition of Brazil by people of different races. Let Brazil''s racial contradictions become less prominent. Of course, the top brass in Brazil are still dominated by white people. This is mainly affected by the level of education. Although Brazil made primary education free for a long time, there are still many non-whites who do not pay attention to the role of education. Fang Tao still doesn''t understand what Fang Lang said. If it was a different worker, he might not ask too many questions. But he is Fang Lang''s younger brother, so he doesn''t have any scruples about speaking. So I expressed my doubts without hesitation. "But if we organize a Brazilian football league every year, although it can increase our ratings. But the investment required to organize a football league is not a small investment! Wouldnt the gain outweigh the loss? " Fang Lang smiled and said: "Haha Tao''er, we may indeed need to invest some funds in organizing the football league in the early stage. But who told you that the football league is a loss-making business and cannot make money? In fact, quite the opposite. The more successful a football league is organized, the more profitable it is. Not to mention our own TV broadcast income. Football matches are held, and the ticket revenue for each game is quite considerable. The more important the game, the higher the ticket price. For the same game, the better the viewing position, the higher the ticket price. In addition, if your club performs well, will there be many fans? Will fans buy jerseys and some club peripheral products in your club, will they generate income? And we hold league games, can we also make some special souvenirs, sell them to fans, and get income. In addition, what brand of clothes the team players wear, and what brand of shoes. Can you also talk about sponsorship with these brands, after all, the logos of these brands will appear on our TV at that time, this kind of huge advertising effect. There should be no one who is tempted! If not, we will set up a clothing brand by ourselves and use this platform to quickly open up the market. In addition, advertising around the venue where the competition is held can also be sold for a lot of money. Maybe when we organized the first and second leagues in the early stage, there would not be so many sponsors. But once our league is successful, there will be a lot of people waving money and looking for cooperation very quickly. At that time, we can even print advertisements on the players'' clothes. Do you think this will make you lose money? If it is what you think, there will be no one dedicated to running football clubs for profit. Do you think that the people who set up the club are really because they love football? If a club operates successfully and there are some very good and famous players in the team, these players are also very valuable. do you understand? " Hearing Fang Lang''s popular science, Fang Tao was a little moved. Although it is not yet known whether the establishment of football clubs and football leagues can really make money. But he feels that with the current strength of the Fangyuan Group, it is entirely possible to establish a football club. At that time, the advertising fee alone can save a lot. After all, he is in the media, so he is still very sensitive to advertising costs. "Brother, should we also set up our own football club!" Looking at Fang Tao who was eager to try, Fang Lang laughed hahaha. nodded him with his hand and said: "If you want to try it yourself, brother will definitely support you. However, I hope we get the football league thing right first. It would be best if we could hold the right to organize this football league in our hands. Don''t let us spread the reputation of the Brazilian Football League. As a result, others picked the peaches. stole our broadcasting rights. Then our initial investment is in vain. " After listening to Fang Lang''s thoughts, Anderson couldn''t help but gave a thumbs up and said: "Boss, you are really generous! For a TV program, they are planning to invest huge sums of money to organize a national football league. This is also a historical precedent! sharp! sharp! If someone talks about the history of the Brazilian Football League in the future, it turns out that it is for a TV show. I don''t know how everyone will feel. " Seeing Anderson''s admiring expression, Fang Lang couldn''t help laughing. Thinking that if there is such a day, maybe my name will also leave a strong mark in the history of Brazilian football! I just dont know how the Chinese fans of later generations will feel when they know that the Brazilian Football League was initiated by a Chinese. Thinking about it, I unconsciously feel a little anticipation. There should be a big clue here! "Hahaha Anderson, my goal is not just a TV show. Now it is a football game, and there will be other events in the future. Finally, we will have a dedicated sports channel. " Anderson was shocked when he heard Fang Lang''s words, Obviously did not expect that the ultimate purpose of doing so was to set up a dedicated sports channel. He had to express his admiration for Fang Lang''s foresight. Think about how many high-quality program ideas I got from Fang Lang in just a short time today. If these ideas are taken to the United States, a TV channel can easily take off in place and become a giant in the American media industry. However, he remembered that Fang Lang had plans to enter the American media industry. Perhaps, this plan can be put on the agenda. (end of this chapter) Chapter 336: training Chapter 336 Training Natal Naval Base, Marine Corps Training Camp. In the dark night, on the calm sea, more than a hundred **** suddenly appeared. Under the moonlight, it looks very strange. The **** floated on the sea surface for less than three seconds, and then all slowly sank. By the time they surfaced again, they had already reached the coast. As it got closer to the coast, the underside of the ball began to be revealed. It turns out that these are some heavily armed soldiers. More and more fighters sneaked into the coast silently, and the leading fighter could be vaguely seen in the darkness, making a few gestures. These people began to act in a three-way formation and dispersed. The speed of the action is not fast, but it looks a little slow, every step is light and light, without making any sound. Except that the water droplets on the soldiers occasionally dripped on the ground, making almost inaudible ticking sounds. The whole operation didn''t make any sound. More than a hundred people penetrated into the jungle on the coast like mercury pouring into the ground. As time passed, there would be a few imperceptible muffled humming sounds from time to time in the jungle. About 30 minutes later, a campsite about 500 meters away from the coast suddenly turned on lights, illuminating the entire camp like daytime. In the center of the camp is a group of disheveled warriors, who are standing dejectedly on the playground to assemble. Surrounded by a group of wet soldiers wearing the same military uniform, but these people all have a blue armband on their left arm. Standing not far away, Fang Lang, who was watching here with a telescope the whole time, put down the telescope. Said to several marine battalion commanders standing behind him: "Hmmm! The infiltrated fighters are doing pretty well. But there is still a lot of room for improvement. As the Marine Corps, we will focus on training the underwater residence time of the soldiers in the future. Also, you have to change your thinking and stop thinking about large-scale penetration. The infiltration of more than a hundred people is concentrated on this one point, how can this work? Everyone in business knows that you cannot put all your eggs in one basket. Concentrate all personnel here to infiltrate. Once discovered by the defenders on the shore, it will change from infiltration to storm. Do you guys know how much this will cost? So, in the future, we will develop small-scale infiltration training in groups. Scatter everyone, with fewer people, it is easier to catch the enemy''s loopholes and complete infiltration. Also less likely to be spotted by enemies. Also, which company is in charge of defending this time? Who is the company commander? With such a defensive ability, how do you lead troops to fight? I dont even know how to use light and dark whistle together. Remove him and replace him with a smarter one. I reiterate once again, the Marine Corps of our aircraft carrier fleet, don''t want to eat and drink. Resolutely implement the capable and the mediocre. This kind of infiltration and reverse osmosis training will become the norm in the future. From now on, the training of the Marine Corps will increase the subjects of emergency assembly at night and camp raids at night. I don''t want to see this kind of disheveled clothes being stuck on the bed again, understand? " The battalion commanders of the five Marine Corps who stood beside Fang Lang and watched the confrontation exercise quickly stood at attention and saluted: "Yes, General." "Let the soldiers disband, change their clothes, don''t catch a cold! We are going to the office, and we have something to inform you. " Fang Lang led the crowd and walked towards the office area. After listening to Fang Lang''s order, a staff officer behind him stood at attention and saluted, and went to read the order. After everyone sat down in the office, Fang Lang didn''t talk nonsense, and went straight to the topic: "Come here suddenly today to test everyone''s night penetration attack capabilities, Some people are already thinking about whether there is an action to be taken. Here, I don''t hide it either. That''s right, a mission is coming soon. And it is an actual combat mission. " As soon as the voice fell, everyone in the office looked at each other, faintly eager to try. Zhuang Xintian took the lead in saying: "Report!" "speak!" "Report to the general, our second battalion has fully formed combat effectiveness, you can rest assured that the combat missions will be entrusted to our battalion." Zhuang Xintian got Fang Lang''s permission, stood up straight to attention, and said loudly to Fang Lang. The other was a battalion commander, who immediately became unwilling after hearing this. All of them said in unison: "Report!" "Report!" "Report!". Especially the oldest Duarte, with a dissatisfied face, glared at Zhuang Xintian with round eyes. Fang Lang smiled, knowing what they meant. Stretched out his hands and pressed down on the road: "I can understand everyone''s feelings. However, I must explain two points here. First of all, for this task, I will select ten classes with the best infiltration performance, As the first offensive echelon. In the next period of time, we will carry out high-intensity infiltration confrontation, Those ten classes performed the best, so I will choose that class to perform this task. This is fair to everyone, You dont have to compete with each other, I only look at the actual results, understand? " When everyone heard this, they also felt relieved. Qiqi got up and took orders. "Yes, General." Fang Lang noticed the expressions on the faces of several people, they all looked like they were waiting and watching, and they were very happy. After all, the technical and tactical level of an army can be obtained through training. But it is difficult to cultivate this kind of spirit that makes people happy when they hear the battle. The chasing atmosphere of the Fleet Marine Corps has also been deliberately created by Fang Lang. Now it seems that the effect is indeed remarkable. "Second, I only need one battalion to perform a specific offensive mission this time. And which battalion will play the battle at that time, It is also determined by the training results during this period. We adhere to the principle of survival of the fittest. The one with the best score will automatically get this task. any questions. " Sparks began to burst out in the eyes of everyone looking at each other. agreed in unison: "Report to the general! No problem!" "very good. Here I want to specifically explain, In this mission, there will be reporters recording the whole process, At that time, this video may be seen by audiences across the country. If anyone behaves badly, it will be regarded as shameful and thrown to grandma''s house. If someone sees the joke, don''t blame me for not reminding you. " Fang Lang threw a blockbuster calmly. Now, several people can''t sit still. They will record the whole process, and then they will be able to show their faces in front of the national audience. Of course it will be ugly if you lose face. But no one thinks that they will lose face! After so long of training, they dare to say that they have absolutely no rivals in Brazil. After all, even the American instructors who taught them are no longer sure to defeat them. What''s more, many of their training items were set by Fang Lang himself. The actual combat capabilities of these training subjects have not yet been tested in actual combat on the battlefield. But in their own internal confrontation exercises, they have already demonstrated strong combat effectiveness. For example, today''s coastal penetration attack exercise is very different from the American way of direct hard steel combat after the artillery is cleared and the armored transport ship is transported ashore. This scout-like combat method is more concealed and silent, and more deadly. It also tests the fighters'' own physical fitness and tactical level. In short, in their view, their fighting power is strong enough, and they are not afraid of people watching at all. Duarte got up directly and said: "Report to the General, Needless to say, we have settled this task with the first battalion. " The four people next to you didn''t care if you were an old officer or not, they all stood up to express their dissatisfaction. All of a sudden, the office, which was able to maintain discipline, began to be noisy. Fang Lang coughed twice, and waited for everyone to calm down before saying: "The rules have been set, can you win the task, It depends on your own strength. Okay, it''s over. Dismiss the meeting. " After speaking, he got up and left without waiting for everyone''s reaction. Everyone quickly stood up and saluted. After Fang Lang left the office, several people started to make a loud noise: "I tell you, no one should argue with me. This mission is definitely mine." "Why! You''re so embarrassing! Is your battalion''s training results comparable to ours? Just say it here." "Okay, I''ll know after the comparison, everyone will see the real chapter." "Comparison is to be afraid of whom." "Hey, brothers, what do you think the mission will be this time? Haven''t heard of any wars recently?" "What? Are you worried? You can just quit!" "Hey, which eye of yours saw me and was scared. I was thinking, if there is a war, why not send only one battalion! " "Is this something you should worry about? You can hit whoever the boss tells you to." "That is, if you feel that you are not good enough, you can directly tell the boss to withdraw from the competition, We have less effort. " "Hey all of you, I just want to discuss with you where the most likely attack target is, so that we can make preparations in advance. Fortunately, you all are like eating gunpowder. As far as your brains are concerned, this task is definitely mine. " "It''s like saying how smart you are, this time everyone will rely on their own strengths, During confrontation training, don''t blame me for being merciless, brothers, for making you lose so ugly. " "Who do you look down on! It''s not certain who will win and who will lose!" "I won''t waste time here with you, I''m going back to have a good talk with my brothers." "I''m leaving too, let''s talk slowly!" All of a sudden, everyone in the office left one after another. Fernando de Noronha, managed to keep his own arms, Nobuyoshi Mizuno. As soon as he returned to his camp, he wanted to take his armed soldiers directly and wipe out all the **** who wanted to **** his arms. Now he is not the fearful look when he first landed on the island. With a weapon in his hand, he didn''t want to wait any longer. "Mizuno-kun, stay safe! It''s night, so it''s not suitable for us to launch an attack. If they all hide in the jungle, we will have a hard time finding them. " Kobayashi Hisaku, who supported his old waist, staggered in front of Mizuno Xinyi, and persuaded him earnestly. Mizuno Shingi also knew that this time was really not suitable for immediate action. But he really couldn''t swallow this breath, and he was almost destroyed by the opponent when he took the action of receiving the arms. He also killed ten of his compatriots, seriously injured more than 30 people, and slightly injured more than 300 people. You need to know that the island they are on now has no medical conditions. These seriously injured people are basically difficult to get effective treatment, so they can only lie in the camp and wait to die. Hearing the painful groans of the wounded, how could Mizuno Xinyi remain indifferent. If he doesn''t look like he wants to fight the other party, how can he win people''s hearts? It was not easy to gather so many Japanese on this island. If everyone can''t follow his command, wouldn''t all his efforts be in vain? (end of this chapter) Chapter 337: dark night Chapter 337 Dark Night glanced at the house that was surrounding them at the moment, With a weapon in his hand, he was ready to follow him to find the Japanese prisoners who were desperately fighting. Shinichi Mizuno suppressed his anger, glared at Hisaku Kobayashi fiercely and said: "Then you say when we go, I don''t want to bear it for a moment." The surrounding Japanese with weapons were also agitated. In the past, everyone had no weapons, so it was fine if they were bullied by each other. But today is different from the past, everyone is holding the real thing in their hands. Knowing that the opponent is empty-handed, and he has the strength to absolutely crush the opponent, who can hold back the humiliation in his heart? So, now everyone is a little angry and wants to wipe out each other. Kobayashi Hisaku, who stood up to stop him, naturally became the target of everyone''s crusade. So, everyone began to feel dissatisfied with him. And this is exactly the effect Mizuno Xinyi wanted. Xiaolin Jiuzuo is an old man, how could he not understand the truth! The more he understands this truth, the more he will stand up to win people''s hearts for Mizuno Shinichi. If Mizuno Xinyi told him that he tried to get everyone to gather on this island, he still didn''t believe it. If you have some observations about Mizuno Shinichi. As this batch of munitions was sent ashore, it shows that Mizuno Xinyi has a strong background support in Brazil. To ensure that people like himself can live in peace, he must obey Mizuno Shinyoshi''s orders and establish his prestige among these people. Therefore, he knows that the other party is deliberately acting, and he must cooperate with him in the performance and establish himself as a villain. "I think it''s best to find an opportunity, Take everyone on the other side in one pot, After all, the area of ??this island is not small. If you want to hide some people, it is very easy to not be discovered by us. There is a proverb in the country of Hua, which is called "If you beat a snake, you will not die, but you will inflict damage on yourself." If we dont do anything, if we do, we must be thunderous and wipe them out completely. Leave no evil behind. " Mizuno Shinichis point of view is completely consistent with that of Kobayashi Hisaku, Originally, according to Mizuno Shinichis plan, he planned to kill all the prisoners on the island, but he wanted to find a reason to mobilize the Japanese on the island to do it. Now it seems that there is no need to mobilize at all, everyone is already fighting against each other and wants to drive each other out. This saved him a lot of work. Hisaku Kobayashi''s words also calmed down some Japanese surrounding them. One after another began to whisper to each other, and discussions started. Seeing this situation, Mizuno Xinyi slowly restrained his emotions and said: "Then Mr. Xiaolin thinks, do we have such an opportunity?" In his opinion, as long as the other party is not stupid, he will never give himself a chance to catch them all. "It can be very difficult. But we can use the excuse of inviting the other party to negotiate to draw the other party out. After all, if they want to survive on the island, they cannot hide all the time. " "What if the other party is not fooled?" "If the other party is not fooled, we can only wipe out a little bit. But this is obviously very bad for us, and it may become a protracted battle. And may cause losses to our own people. " Hisaku Kobayashi''s words made everyone fall into silence. Everyone is not a fool, this truth can be understood without explaining. It must be quite difficult to chase and kill more than a thousand people in a dense jungle. These people who can survive on the island must have certain survival skills. If one is not careful, two traps are set by the other party, and several people will be killed. Then, if the weapons of one''s own people are seized, then one''s own people will be in danger. Maybe, people like myself will not even have the chance to sleep well in the future. "This won''t work, we don''t have that much energy to entangle with them. Is there any better way? " At this time, Mizuno Shinichi no longer said that he wanted to avenge his own people, but directly stated his attitude that he wanted to wipe out all the opponents. Everyone fell into silence for a while, but a few Japanese around the door shouted loudly: "Don''t worry about him so much, no matter where they hide, we can find them out." "That''s right, this island is neither small nor big. I can''t kill them all." "Shut up! We only have a few guns, if we all go out to hunt them down. What about they sneaking into our camp and attacking our old, weak, women and children? " "Then what do you say, do you still have to swallow your anger and continue to tolerate them living on the same island with us?" "Hehe. Even if you can tolerate them, they don''t worry about you! You know, if we hadn''t been prepared this time, they would have taken our weapons away. If this is the case, we might have to think about how to save our lives. " The noise outside made Mizuno Xinyi a little irritable, and he quickly stopped and said: "Okay, stop arguing, everyone go back to rest first. Wait for Kobayashi-kun and I to have a good discussion. " Hearing Mizuno Shinichi''s order, Kobayashi Hisaku was startled, and immediately wanted to jump out to stop it. Did he object to letting everyone leave? But he knew that at this time, he could not directly oppose Mizuno Shinichi''s order. He could only support his waist in a hurry, bent his hand to his ear and said: "Mizuno-kun, we can''t let everyone rest, tonight is very dangerous. The other party might launch an attack while we are resting and **** the weapons from us. " Mizuno Xinyi is also a smart person. When he heard this, he immediately realized that he had just experienced a big battle on his side, and he was exhausted. But as long as you persist until the day is clear, the form will be reversed, and you can take the initiative on your side. If the other party is smart enough, they can definitely think of this. If my side attacked the opponent without hesitation tomorrow during the day, I would definitely disperse the opponent. At that time, it will not be easy for the other party to organize again. So, tonight may be the last chance for the other party to launch an organized attack. Wanting to understand the joints involved, Mizuno Shingi did not hesitate. shouted directly: "Matsushima-kun, Yoshino-kun, you two stay here for a while." Hearing Mizuno Shinichi''s call, two short and sturdy men turned around among the crowd who had just walked not far away. Looked at each other, and walked back a little puzzled. One of them asked: "Mizuno-dono, what''s the matter, please tell me!" Mizuno Xinyi''s face was serious, and he looked at the two with a majestic face and said: "Matsushima-kun, Yoshino-kun, we are not safe now, so we cannot all rest. I hope that the two of you will take your team and be in charge of security tonight. Prepare for possible attacks by the enemy. As for the specific warning plan, you can ask Kobayashi-kun for advice. " When the two heard this, their eyes were fixed. After looking at each other, Qiqi bowed at ninety degrees and said: "It''s Mizuno-dono, let''s go and gather our team to carry out security missions." Mizuno Xinyi was very satisfied with the attitude of the two, and explained again: I feel like they wont give up easily, tonight may be their last chance. Maybe the other party is already planning to attack us now. So, you all have to be extra careful. In addition, please help me tell all the soldiers that weapons are not allowed to leave the body these days. You must be on guard against the sneak attacks of these prisoners at any time, understand? " The two bowed again and said: "Hay!" After the two left, Shinichi Mizuno bowed deeply to Hisaku Kobayashi, and said very sincerely: "Mr. Xiaolin, you are indeed a very good veteran. Thanks for your selfless reminder that I almost made a big mistake. " Seeing Mizuno Shinyoshi''s attitude, Hisaku Kobayashi was very satisfied, and even had the feeling of having met a master. He quickly stepped forward and bowed, but as soon as he bent down, a sharp pain came, and before the honorifics in his mouth came out, it turned into a painful cry of "Oh oh oh!" Seeing this situation, Shinichi Mizuno was a little dumbfounded, and hurriedly stepped forward to support the other party and said: "Mr. Xiaolin, you are welcome, I thank you very seriously! You must protect your body, we need your help to grow quickly. " Kobayashi Hisaku also expressed his gratitude with emotion: "Thank you Mizuno-kun for your appreciation, Kobayashi Hisaku will definitely do his best to assist Mizuno-kun to complete the great cause." Not to mention that the two of them staged a good show of a sage king and a virtuous figure here. In the jungle less than a mile away from the camp, Bearded Falk Pinto and Pulsatilla Clay Hope and others are gathering remnants. In the dark night, shadowy figures are slowly gathering. No one dared to light torches for lighting, for fear of arousing the other party''s vigilance. The bearded man grabbed the decadent Nathan and said: "I said you kid, didn''t you just fail once? Is it necessary to look like a dead mother? " Ka Nathan obviously looked a bit overwhelmed, and sat down on the ground and said: "There are masters in these little Japans, we have no chance. Now that the opponent has weapons in their hands, we cannot be the opponent''s. " Pulsatilla Clay Hope on the side saw this situation, frowned and said: "Nathan, what if the opponent has a master? Have you forgotten that we also have professionals here, and Horace Richmond was a major in the army. We may not have no chance to fight each other again. " Falker Pinto also said nonchalantly: "I still don''t believe it, just these little dwarfs, even if they get guns, what''s the point? Don''t they dare to kill us all? " Pulsatilla did not speak, and his expression could not be seen clearly in the dark night. But Nathan, who was sitting on the ground, said leisurely: "Why are they buying weapons if they don''t want to kill us? Are they going to fight back to Japan? " Hearing this, Falk Pinto was at a loss for words. Clay Hope sighed and said: "I have advised you a long time ago, don''t conflict with these little dwarfs, you must listen. Now it''s all right, it''s a situation of endless death. Even if they weren''t going to kill us before, they must be thinking about it now. " Folke Pinto was not happy when he heard this, and directly opened his mouth and said: "Pulsatilla, you are becoming more timid as you live. Even these dwarfs dare not offend, what is the difference from a shrinking turtle. I absolutely support Nathan on this point. I think these little Japans must have never thought about co-existing peacefully with us. Otherwise, they have no reason to purchase arms. " "Alas! It''s too late to say this now, we''re here complaining to each other, nothing can be solved. At dawn tomorrow, they will definitely launch a siege against us. Everyone talk, what shall we do! " The bearded Falk Pinto said directly with a look of disdain: "There is nothing to discuss, just do it!" (end of this chapter) Chapter 338: moths to flame Chapter 338 Moths to the Flame People like the bearded Falk Pinto obviously don''t have too many scruples, so they are very simple and rude. Nathan, who was sitting on the ground, rolled his eyes helplessly, regardless of whether others could see it or not. "Now that others are fully armed, you still have to fight with others. What is the difference between this and death? " Folke Pinto asked in a puzzled tone: "Can''t we not die if we don''t do it?" For a while, Nathan didn''t know how to answer this question, and he couldn''t help thinking seriously about what Falk Pinto said. Before he could figure it out, Clay Hope, the white-headed man beside him, had already spoken first. "Don''t think about it, we only have this way now. We have another chance tonight, After tonight, everyone will flee for their lives, and wish themselves well! " A kind of indescribable decisiveness, obviously the meaning of the pulsatilla Clay Hope is very clear, otherwise don''t conflict with the other party, But since the conflict has already arisen, don''t hesitate, just do your best to fight the enemy to the death. If you still lose after betting everything, then you have nothing to say, just accept your fate. "I think you cultural people just think too much, What do you mean after tonight, everyone runs for their lives! I dont care if I can really succeed tonight, As long as these little Japanese don''t kill Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu will continue to fight with him. The big deal is to hide in the jungle during the day and come out at night to fight them desperately. Until one side completely falls down. " Falker Pinto retorted directly with a casual tone and a firm attitude. Obviously agreed with the idea of ??buying and selling with a hammer. It can only be said that individuals have different personalities and will make different choices. As for which method is better, different people have different opinions. Pulsatilla obviously belongs to the character of making a decision before making a move. This method of breaking the boat and sinking the boat can often achieve miraculous results. After failure, it is not advisable to choose to lie flat and flee for your life. But Falk Pinto is a reckless man, he doesn''t have so many ideas, his creed is that as long as he can''t do it to death, he will do it to death. There is a kind of fierceness that will never die as long as he is watching. The words of the two of them obviously awakened Nathan, who had become decadent due to the defeat. Gritting his teeth, he stood up and said: "You guys are right, anyway, sooner or later you will die, It''s better to pull two dwarfs on the back. Pulsatilla is right, we still have a chance tonight. The Japanese who had just fought us must have been very tired, plus they successfully achieved their goal. Maybe you will let your guard down. Let''s take this opportunity and give it another go. However, we still need to plan carefully. There are experts in the other party, and they may be guarding against us. " Falk Pinto laughed when he heard Nathan''s voice, He patted Nathan on the shoulder who stood up and said: "Hahaha that''s the right way! What do you think about so much, the big deal is that you will die, and you will be done. " Perhaps affected by the atmosphere, when the first attack was launched, he appeared very silent. Pulsatilla, who was forced to participate, also said directly at this time: "That''s right, just do it. Life and death are tonight, and the opponent''s camp is about one kilometer ahead. We can use the cover of the jungle to reach the nearest place to their camp before launching an attack. " Nathan, who had come to his senses from the decadence, also started the analysis again. "How many people have we gathered, and how many people are left on the other side?" Folke Pinto touched his head, and said with some embarrassment: "We don''t know the statistics of these black lights and ignorant people, but in the last attack, at least 20 people died. Nearly 200 people injured their hands and feet because of the opponent''s trap, Retreat more and run away in a hurry. It is estimated that there may be less than 500 people who can be gathered now. " Upon hearing the number, everyone fell silent. Unexpectedly, in one attack, one side lost half of its manpower. Now we cant help everyone to think too much, Nathan continued to say: "Five hundred is five hundred, since our people have losses, the other party can''t be unscathed, so don''t worry about the number of people. Lets make a plan first, and then you say how to fight. " "There''s nothing to say, just walk into their camp and start working directly. Hit whoever you see! " "Cough! Cough! No, no, no, we can''t fight around like this, we can only deliver food to them. I think we should figure out a way to shoot their guns first, It would be best if we could seize some weapons from them. In this way we have the hope of victory. " Pulsatilla was startled when he heard that Falk Pinto was about to rush in, and coughed twice before saying. Nathan also very much agrees with Pulsatilla''s statement. "Pulsatilla is right, we should target people with guns. You said, can we lure out the man with the gun and set up an ambush. " Pulsatilla Clay Hope heard this, his eyes lit up, and he wanted to nod in agreement. Falker Pinto asked directly: "What if the other party is not fooled? Isn''t our raid plan no chance? If you want me to say, what do you think about so much, just rush in and it''s over. " Nathan was taken aback when he heard this, and couldn''t help thinking of the well-organized defense line on the pier. He sighed helplessly and said: "Yes! There are masters in the opponent''s team, and the opponent should not be easily fooled. It seems that this time we can only use the simplest and most rude method. But even if you rush in, you have to attack the person with the gun in his hand as soon as possible. Try to find a way to grab weapons. Only in this way, we have a chance to survive, Even if this operation fails, as long as we have weapons in our hands, If the other party wants to attack us, they must also consider how much loss they can bear. " Neither Falk Pinto nor Clay Hope has an issue with this. Folke Pinto slapped directly and said: "Then it''s settled, now we will act and sneak up. Dry directly. " "Wait, it''s not the time yet, wait a little longer, wait until they all fall asleep, and then we will act." Nathan reached out and stopped the bearded Falk Pinto who was about to turn around and set off. Time passed little by little, Mizuno Shingi had already laid down to sleep first. Kobayashi Hisaku has been unable to sleep because of low back pain. Standing up, looking at the dark night, he was slightly lost in thought. Recalling the experience of this period of time, I can''t help but sigh a little. I don''t quite understand how a good life has suddenly become what it is today. I dont know how long it has passed, Kobayashi Hisakuza suddenly felt something wrong looking at the jungle in the night. With a fixed gaze, he walked out of the room quickly. Looking at the dark night, listening carefully but not hearing any sound. Yoshino, who was in charge of patrolling, saw Hisaku Kobayashi''s appearance, and asked strangely: "Xiao Lin-kun, are you still awake so late? Do not worry! With our vigilance, those **** will never be allowed to touch it. " Kobayashi Hisaku didn''t answer his question, grabbed Yoshino''s left hand, and asked in a deep voice: "Did you hear something?" Yoshino was taken aback by the question, but he quickly realized that his expression changed, and he asked anxiously: "Xiao Lin-kun, did you hear any unusual sounds? In that direction, I''ll have someone check it out right away. " As he spoke, he raised the submachine gun in his hand and pointed it at the jungle. Hisaku Kobayashi reprimanded in a low voice: "I''m asking did you hear something? Answer me, bastard?" Yoshino was confused, looking at Kobayashi Hisakusaku with a somewhat ferocious expression, he couldn''t care less about the other party''s scolding. Pricked up his ears and listened carefully for a while, then shrugged and said: "I didn''t hear any sound! Is Xiao Lin-kun a little too sensitive?" Hisaku Kobayashi tightened his hand, and it hurt to hold Yoshino''s arm. Yoshino looked up at Hisaku Kobayashi with some displeasure. I don''t understand why the old man is crazy. Soon, the old man let go of the strength in his hand, patted Yoshino''s arm and said: "Go secretly and call all our people, ready to go to war." Yoshino, who was a little upset at first, was shocked when he heard this, and almost exclaimed, his arm was soon held tightly by Kobayashi Hisaku. "Don''t make abnormal movements, let yourself be natural, and let the person who gets up don''t make any movement. Find a good cover and shoot directly when you see the enemy, understand? " "Understood, but, we see the enemy! Can''t make a mistake! " Yoshino was obviously shocked by Kobayashi Hisaku''s words, and asked in a low voice with some fear. "Don''t worry! I can''t make a mistake. Something went wrong, I''m responsible, You jump right into action and get them to set up the machine guns. You can''t let the enemy rush in front of you to grab the weapon, understand? " Yoshino knew that Hisaku Kobayashi was the only one among them who had been a soldier and had actual combat experience. Moreover, Shinichi Mizuno is the candidate for the chief instructor, and he has the right to give orders. Therefore, he no longer hesitated, chose to believe Kobayashi Hisaku''s words, and started to act according to his orders. Hisaku Kobayashi waited for Yoshino to leave, and instead of looking around, he turned around and went to Xinyi Mizuno''s room. "What? How do you know they''ve touched it?" Mizuno Shinichi, who was woken up by Kobayashi Hisaku, exclaimed. Hisaku Kobayashi looked out the window without looking back, and said in a low voice: "Because the surroundings are so quiet, even the sound of insects has disappeared. It means that they are very close to us. " Before the words fell, I saw a man on patrol in the distance, suddenly pointed his gun at the direction of the dense forest, and shouted: "Who, who is where!" Soon, several figures sprang out from the darkness and rushed towards the patrolling officer. The guns in the hands of the patrol officers went off immediately. There was a "bang", which was very clear in the dark night. The sound of the gunshot was like the signal of the starting gun. In the dark jungle, countless shadows rushed towards the camp without hesitation. Patrol officers'' gunshots hit a figure who jumped at him. From a distance, Kobayashi Hisaku could see the figure tremble all over, and after rushing forward four or five meters, he stopped moving. The people around him still threw themselves at the patrolman without hesitation. This situation obviously frightened the patrol personnel, and the action of pulling the bolt and loading it seemed extremely slow. While pulling the bolt to load, it is still retreating. In just this moment, the figure rushing up was already less than ten meters away from him. There was another "bang" and another gunshot, and the rushing figure fell down again. Seeing that the patrolman had been approached, there were shooting sounds one after another in the camp. The figures who attacked the patrol were the first to be shot. Under the cover of gunfire, the patrolman scrambled and ran behind a bunker. It was said that it was too late, but in just a split second, the attacking party had already suffered five or six casualties. But the offense is clearly not intimidated. Instead, like moths to a flame, they rushed from the dark jungle to the bright Japanese camp. (end of this chapter) Chapter 339: Fall short Chapter 339 Failure Folke Pinto, who was hiding in the dark forest, looked at everything in front of him with tears in his eyes. He did not expect that the Japanese would be so vigilant and respond so quickly. It is impossible to back down at this time. Don''t hesitate to shout "Come on!" Recklessly got up from the ground and rushed to the Japanese camp. Nathan next to him wanted to reach out to stop him, but he couldn''t. He could only look at Falk Pinto, who was holding only a stick in his hand, and rushed out desperately. Before he had time to think about it, Nathan also got up from the ground, picked up the stones around him and threw them towards the Japanese camp. After throwing more than ten stones, I found that there were no stones around me. Looking at the figures constantly rushing out of the darkness, he gritted his teeth, picked up the wooden stick beside him without hesitation, and rushed out. The prisoners with the most primitive weapons in their hands rushed to the Japanese who had rushed to fight regardless. This is clearly an asymmetrical battle. The prisoners who were already at an absolute disadvantage broke out with unprecedented courage. But it still cannot be changed, the huge gap in weapons and equipment. Hisaku Kobayashis warning in advance, although it didnt make all the Japanese prepare in advance, But it also allowed most of the Japanese with weapons to go into battle early. When Nathan, the man with dry eyes, rushed out of the jungle, the brisk firing of light machine guns sounded in the Japanese camp. Nathan saw with his own eyes that the bearded Falk Pinto knocked down a Japanese with a stick and snatched the opponent''s rifle. But he picked up the gun and fired only one bullet, and was hit by three or four bullets. He also saw the companions who kept falling around him, and the deserters who didn''t dare to face this tragedy, turned around and fled to the jungle. But these people did not escape the bullets fired from the Japanese camp. The Japanese camp is not an open area. If you want to rush in, you have to rush through three narrow passages less than ten meters. But now, these three passages are like a moat, blocking all the prisoners who want to rush in from the passage. The vicinity of the passage was already full of corpses. Nathan was taken aback when he saw this situation. Then, like crazy, he picked up the wooden stick in his hand and rushed over regardless. It wasn''t until he was shot three times that he fell to the ground unwillingly. The glasses **** with something unknown also fell to the ground and broke into four pieces. The flickering gunfire was constantly reflected in the lens. The entire battle lasted less than half an hour, looking at the corpses lying around the camp. Mizuno Shingi nodded in satisfaction, and said to Kobayashi Hisaku: "Xiao Lin-kun, it really is a veteran who has participated in the war like you. Unexpectedly, because there are no birds and insects in the jungle, you can know that they have touched it. The soldiers of our Great Japanese Empire are indeed the strongest in the world. Hahaha." Hisaku Kobayashi was also very satisfied when he saw the corpses all over the floor, and when he heard Xinyi Mizuno''s praise, he also pretended to be reserved and smiled and said: "Mizuno-kun overrated! These prisoners have not received any training at all. Only know how to fight and dash, dealing with them is nothing at all. " Mizuno Shinichi was very satisfied with Kobayashi Hisaku''s modesty, and smiled and patted Kobayashi on the shoulder. Pointing to the corpses strewn all over the ground again, he laughed loudly and said: "Haha. Look at the current situation. At least three hundred people fell here, and there should not be many left. Tomorrow morning, we will turn their camp upside down. Kill all the rest. After that, this island will completely belong to us. " Hearing this, Hisaku Kobayashi instinctively wanted to stop it. Because in his opinion, tomorrow morning, it should be difficult to have a chance to catch the rest of the people. As long as the other party is not a fool, they will not dare to run back to the camp in this situation. But think about it, Mizuno Xinyi is now at a time when he is proud, and if he raises objections at this time, it may cause the other party''s dissatisfaction. I can only suppress the urge to dissuade. flattered in a low voice: "What Mizuno-kun said is true, as long as all the remaining people are killed, this island will completely belong to you. Here I would like to congratulate Mizuno-kun in advance for opening up the empire and expanding the territory. Such achievements will surely be recorded in the annals of history. " Xinyi Mizuno is also very high-spirited at the moment, very unhappy. Hearing this, he also burst out laughing. He patted Kobayashi Hisakusaku on the shoulder vigorously and said: "Hahaha Mr. Xiaolin, I will definitely report your achievements truthfully. When the time comes, let''s wait for His Majesty Tianhuang''s reward together! By the way, the national flag of the Great Japanese Empire we prepared can be hung tomorrow. We want to tell all the Japanese that we overseas Chinese also have our heart towards Japan and heaven. " Being able to raise the Japanese flag on a foreign land is an honor that is hard to refuse for a veteran who participated in the Russo-Japanese War. This means that from this time on, Japan has completed its actual occupation of the island. That is what he and Shinichi Mizuno said to expand the territory for Japan. Of course, they are not worried about whether this will be recognized by the Japanese government. Because, in their minds, Brazil and Japan are already at war, raising their national flags on the territory of the enemy country. And actually occupying an island is a very huge contribution. As for how the Brazilian government will view this matter, they are not worried. This was originally an island used by the Brazilian government to exile prisoners. It is conceivable that the Brazilian government attaches great importance to this island. After killing all the Brazilian prisoners on the island, the island will become an island where only Japanese live. After a period of development, everyone can claim that this island has been an overseas territory of Japan since ancient times. After all, all the people living above are Japanese. So, Kobayashi Hisaku got up very excitedly, bowed deeply to Mizuno Xinyi and said: "Hay! Ono-kun, this will be our most glorious moment. Please allow me to guard the flag for you. " The so-called guarding the flag means protecting the flag. Kobayashi Hisaku''s meaning is also very clear, such an important matter as raising the flag must be in charge of Mizuno Shinichi himself. Then he wants to become a flag bearer and assist Mizuno Xinyi to raise the Japanese flag on this island. In his opinion, this is an extremely glorious thing. For this request, Mizuno Shinichi did not refuse, Hisaku Kobayashi is one of the Japanese people on the island who can really help him. At the same time, he is also the No. 2 person personally selected by himself, so he is really suitable as the flag bearer. "Very good, Kobayashi-kun, Then tomorrow morning, the two of us will personally raise the flag of the Great Japanese Empire on this island. You will share this glory with me. " "Hay!" As Nathan guessed at the beginning, the Japanese never thought about rushing into the jungle in the dark to hunt down them. Therefore, all the prisoners who fled back to the jungle escaped from the guns of the Japanese smoothly. But now there is a whole team of 1,000 people. After two battles, there are only more than 100 people who can still operate normally. In the dark jungle, Clay Hope, the white-headed man who stumbled all the way back to the camp, was covered in mud and in a panic. "Sir, what shall we do now?" The middle-aged man who had been by Clay Hope''s side was also full of panic at this moment. Pulsatilla didn''t answer his question, but slumped down on the wooden bench with a dazed expression, staring blankly at the pitch-black jungle in a daze. The dense forest at this moment is like a giant beast that chooses to eat people, exuding a fearsome atmosphere. The Pulsatilla shuddered and shivered. The middle-aged man beside him was startled when he saw this scene, and quickly reached out to touch his forehead. I found that the forehead of the pulsatilla was hot. I don''t know when it started, but the pulsatilla started to have a fever. This made the middle-aged man beside him so anxious that he rummaged around in the camp. Find a blanket and wrap the pulsatilla tightly. "Sir, are you all right!" "Sir, you have a fever!" "Sir, there is no better point!" No matter how the middle-aged man called Pulsatilla, he did not make any movement, which made everyone in the camp very anxious. Everyone is talking about it. After experiencing such a major loss just now, everyone is panicking. The only mainstay, Clay Hope, seems to be under witchcraft again. This made everyone even more anxious. "What should we do now?" "Let''s run!" "The island is so big, where can I go?" "Then what should we do, are we waiting for the little Japanese to come and kill us?" "How about we surrender!" "Will the Japanese accept our surrender?" "Are you stupid! Life on this island is already difficult, and it is not easy to survive. The little Japanese still keeps you as a prisoner for leisure?" "Then what should we do? We can''t jump into the sea, right?" "Isn''t jumping into the sea a suicide? It''s better to fight with the Japanese dwarf." "Fight? How to fight? Others have guns. Should we fight others with sticks?" "Hey! If we had weapons in our hands, we would definitely not lose so badly!" "Aren''t you talking nonsense? Where are we, how could we have weapons." "Then tell me, what should we do now, there are still so many brothers injured!" "I can''t even take care of myself, so I don''t have the time to take care of them!" The disturbances around him seemed to be automatically filtered out by Pulsatilla''s ears, and it didn''t affect him at all. He just stared blankly at the dark jungle. Everyone didn''t sleep that night, and unknowingly, the sky turned pale. Everybody knew it was going to be even harder for them when the day came. It was at this time that Pulsatilla, who had been in a daze all along, stood up directly as if he had received some new stimulation. The middle-aged man sitting next to him was taken aback. "Sir, are you okay!" The middle-aged man, who thought he would not get a response, heard the voice of the pulsatilla this time. Overnight, the other party''s voice has become very hoarse, like the sound made by rubbing metal against glass. But the voice is very small, and the middle-aged man can barely hear it when he puts his head in front of the pulsatilla. "Run, get everyone, scatter and run, hide deep in the jungle. Don''t get together, don''t give the Japanese a chance to wipe us all out. " "But sir, if we hide in the jungle without food, we won''t last long at all." "Distribute all the food in the camp and let everyone take it away, and the rest will be up to everyone. How long can we last? Run fast, the Japanese will definitely come and hunt us down at dawn. If you dont run, it will be too late. " Pulsatilla''s voice was hoarse, and these words seemed to be spoken with all his strength. The middle-aged man looked up at the already pale sky, and knew that the time was urgent and there was no delay. Turning around quickly, conveyed Pulsatilla''s instructions to everyone. The people who hadn''t slept all night suddenly became flustered when they heard this. The camp was in chaos in an instant, and everyone fought and started fighting for food. And some people have already run directly to the dense jungle regardless. The middle-aged man was also a little flustered when he saw this scene, but he still suppressed the urge to turn around and run away, and returned to Pulsatilla''s side and said: "Sir, let''s go too!" (end of this chapter) Chapter 340: occupied Chapter 340 Occupation Pulsatilla Clay Hope looked at the distant jungle as if his eyes were out of focus, sighed silently before shaking his head and said: "No need, there are so many wounded brothers here, I can''t leave them alone. I''m right here waiting for the Japanese. You should withdraw first! " The middle-aged man hesitated for a while, as if he had made up his mind, he gritted his teeth and said: "Sir, I will stay with you too." The chaotic voices behind them have become smaller and smaller, and most of the people in the camp have already brought food and fled in all directions. Pulsatilla didn''t turn his head. After hearing the middle-aged man''s words, he was silent for a while before saying: "No, you can''t stay. If you are really worried about me, you can wait two days and come back to the camp to have a look. Help me collect the corpse if you have a chance! Also, if you have the chance to escape, you must find a way to spread the word about what happened here. " Knowing that Pulsatilla has made up his mind to die, dissuading him is useless, the middle-aged man doesnt say any more, But the possibility of escaping from this small island alive is too small. After all, this is a small island used to exile prisoners and no one cares about it. The only chance may be to wait for the next time the prisoners are transported to the island. But no one knows when it will be. It is difficult to confirm whether I can live to that time. But at this time, the middle-aged man can only bite the bullet and nod in response to Pulsatilla''s deathbed entrustment. "Well, sir, I will find a way to sneak back in two days, and I hope to see you again then! " Both of them knew that this possibility was very low, but the middle-aged man still had a little extravagant hope in his heart. Pulsatilla waved his hand without raising his head, signaling the middle-aged man to leave. The middle-aged man took one last look at Pulsatilla''s bleak back, gritted his teeth and entered the camp, collecting some food casually. When leaving the camp, after bowing deeply to the Pulsatilla, he walked into the dense jungle step by step and turned his head three times. When the first ray of sunlight on the horizon crosses the sea level and shines on the islands of Fernando de Noronha. The Japanese camp was already full of densely packed people. Men, women, old and young supported each other, and almost everyone who could stand normally stood in an open space. The corpses all over the ground last night have been cleaned up, and the blood left on the ground is still telling people the tragedy of last night. In the middle of the open space stood a straight tree trunk about ten meters long. Xinyi Mizuno and Hisaku Kobayashi were standing under the flagpole, and not far from them were standing neatly, three hundred heavily armed soldiers. Behind the soldiers are the Japanese people on the island. Everyone''s eyes were fixed on Mizuno Xinyi, and he coughed twice and said: "Subjects of the Great Japanese Empire, today is a moment destined to be remembered by history. We, the expatriates of the Great Japanese Empire far away in Brazil, the loyal subjects of His Majesty Tianhuang, are about to accomplish a feat. In Brazil, thousands of miles away from the Great Japanese Empire, a piece of territory in the Atlantic Ocean is dedicated to His Majesty Tianhuang. This will leave all of us in history, and it will also herald that the Great Japanese Empire will become stronger. Let us cheer for His Majesty Tianhuang! Half load! " "Half load!" "Half load!" After hearing Xinyi Mizuno''s words, the crowd below were all excited, raised their hands high, and shouted in unison, "Half time!" After doing this three times, Shinichi Mizuno said to everyone again: "Now, under the witness of everyone, we will raise the flag of the Great Japanese Empire, Announced to the world that this island is the overseas territory of the Great Japanese Empire from today onwards. Please join me in singing Tianhuang. " As soon as the voice fell, everyone began to sing in unison, the Japanese national anthem "Kimi no Dai". And Shingi Mizuno and Hisaku Kobayashi also sang this song while hoisting the national flag on the flagpole with solemn expressions. As the plaster flag was raised, all the Japanese cheered again like crazy. "Half load!" "Half load!" The bright red on the plaster flag flying high on the flagpole is in stark contrast to the blood red on the ground that has not yet completely solidified. It seems to be reminding the world that wherever this flag is raised, there will be bloodshed. The carnival of the crowd lasted for more than five minutes before gradually subsiding. After everyone calmed down slowly, Mizuno Shinichi tidied up his clothes, stood under the plaster flag with a serious face, and said to the three hundred heavily armed soldiers: "His Majesty Tianhuang''s brave subjects, although we have completed the occupation of the island. But on this island, there are still many mice who are unwilling to obey the leadership of His Majesty Tianhuang, They are recharging their batteries in the dark corners of the island, ready to attack us at any time. We must wipe them all out immediately to prevent them from destroying His Majesty Tianhuang''s sacred territory. So, now I command: Everyone is fully armed and clears all non-Japanese people on the island. Let us dedicate a piece of clean territory to His Majesty Tianhuang. Set off! " After speaking, he waved his hand. Originally, it should be a very imposing image, but with his short and fat figure, there is an indescribable sense of humor. The heavily armed Japanese walked out of the camp first, followed by old and weak women and children holding various sticks and spears. It turned out that Shinichi Mizuno took everyone together to hunt down the prisoners who had been defeated by them. The mighty crowd rushed towards the camp of the prisoners along the narrow path on the island. The first destination is the base camp of the bearded Falk Pinto, but because the bearded man had died on the way to the charge last night, the crowd returning to the camp knew that the camp could not stay. You have already wiped out your supplies in the camp, leaving only some seriously wounded who cannot move. Mizuno Shingi couldn''t even treat his own wounded, and of course it was impossible to treat these prisoners. At the same time, he did not waste food on these wounded. Therefore, he ordered to the soldiers around him without hesitation: "Finish them with bayonets." "Hay!" The Japanese armed themselves with bayonet-mounted rifles and stabbed all the wounded to death one by one. In an instant, panicked begging for mercy and screams came from the entire camp. The heavily armed soldiers kicked open the dilapidated shacks and searched all the places where people could hide. When found alive, they were all stabbed with bayonets. The old and weak women and children who followed behind without weapons rushed into the camp behind the soldiers, packing away everything they saw that they thought was valuable. Finally, a fire burned the entire camp to nothing. I have to say that the Japanese have an unparalleled talent for the Sanko policy. The place they walked by was completely killed, robbed, burned, and no trace was left. Big Beard''s camp is not small, after all, there used to be more than 700 people living here. It took a whole morning to clean up the camp. Both Shingi Mizuno and Hisaku Kobayashi knew very well that many survivors fled into the dense forest. In order to cut off their way of life, they ordered all the materials in the camp to be moved away, and all the things that could not be moved were burned. Absolutely must not leave anything of value to the survivors. Even if they cannot be found out of the jungle, let them starve to death in the jungle. After clearing the camp, everyone drove to Pulsatilla''s camp again. This island is not big in the first place, and everyone on the island knows exactly where the respective camps of the several forces on the island are. So, everyone quickly surrounded the Pulsatilla''s camp. Far away, Mizuno Xinyi saw the Pulsatilla standing outside the camp. The soldiers around him wanted to shoot and kill the opponent, but Mizuno Xinyi stopped him. Pulsatilla standing outside the camp had long seen the thick smoke billowing from the Big Beard''s camp, so he didn''t understand that the other party was going to completely wipe out the roots this time. Looking at Xinyi Mizuno who was slowly approaching him, the white-headed Clay Hope was expressionless. "Mr. Pulsatilla, I didn''t expect you to be greeted at the gate of the camp." Mizuno Shingi seemed to be in a good mood, and came to Pulsatilla with pride and said. "No, you''re wrong! I stand here just to tell you that this is my camp. You are not welcome, please leave! " Clay Hope looked calm, looking coldly at the smug Little Japan in front of him. Xinyi Mizuno was not angry when he heard his words, he laughed loudly and said: "Mr. Pulsatilla, are you getting old and confused. From now on, the whole island is ours, and I can go wherever I want. That round gets you, gesticulating. " After speaking, he stretched out his head and glanced at the messy camp behind Pulsatilla. chuckled disdainfully and said: "Tsk! Tsk! Don''t tell me Mr. Pulsatilla, are you going to stop me by yourself?" At this time, Pulsatilla also understood that he had no ability to resist at all. He didn''t speak, but stood straight in front of Mizuno Xinyi, blocking his way. Mizuno Xinyi glanced at him, unwilling to talk nonsense with him, waved to the back. The soldiers with weapons rushed forward. A soldier was about to stab the old man who got in the way with a bayonet, but Xinyi Mizuno stopped him: "Don''t be so rude to Mr. Pulsatilla, you first enter the camp and check to see how many people are there. We want Mr. Pulsatilla to see for himself how I got into his camp. " The soldier could only turn his rifle around when he heard the words, and the **** of the rifle hit Clay Hope directly in the face. directly smashed him to the ground, but Clay Hope did not back down, he knew that he had no place to retreat. But the Japanese obviously wouldn''t be stopped by an old man like him, and hit his stomach with the **** of his gun again, making him bow down like a shrimp. Seeing that the Japanese straddled his body and rushed towards the camp. Pulsatilla exclaimed loudly: "We surrender! We surrender! I don''t know if we can let us go. Here are all wounded and will not pose a threat to you. Please we surrender! " The soldiers ignored Pulsatilla''s call, stepped on him and rushed into the camp. Mizuno Shingi squatted beside the Pulsatilla and said: "Mr. Pulsatilla, don''t say I won''t give you a chance. If you can get all the people who fled into the jungle to come out and surrender to me. I can consider letting you go. how? " Pulsatilla Clay Hope, holding back the pain, panted heavily: "Everyone ran away long ago, and I couldn''t find them at all. Here are the wounded, please, let them go. " Mizuno Xinyi''s eyes were cold, and his tone was cold: "Mr. Pulsatilla, don''t blame me then. I do not accept your surrender! " Then, Pulsatilla heard screams and curses coming from the camp. This made Pulsatilla''s eyes tear open, and he gnashed his teeth with all his strength, and rushed towards Mizuno Xinyi. But before he could pounce, Hisaku Kobayashi on the side had already raised his hand and shot, directly knocking off his sky cap. Mizuno Shingi spat in disdain, got up and walked towards the camp. Next, the Japanese replicated what they had done at the previous camp. I dont know if God cant stand the evil deeds of the Japanese, the sky is still clear in the morning. In the afternoon, a strong wind began to blow, accompanied by heavy rain. Drenched all the Japanese into drowned chickens. (end of this chapter) Chapter 341: raymond eddie Chapter 341 Raymond Eddy Rio de Janeiro, home of Raymond Eddy. Raymond Eddie, who was leisurely eating breakfast, picked up the newspaper on the table. Although he was not born in a noble family, with his father''s success, their family is now considered a member of high society in Brazil. So, under the influence of their father, they also developed the habit of British aristocrats. That is to check the major events in the country through the newspaper while enjoying a hearty breakfast. But today''s newspaper caught his attention, and he saw that the headline was "Navy Training Accidentally Intercepted Huge Arms Transaction". Hastily put down the breakfast in his hands and concentrated on reading the newspaper. After reading this report, he breathed a sigh of relief. Thought it was the latest batch of munitions seized by the navy again! It turned out that it was just a stir-fry, and the news about the arms investigation last time was brought out again for speculation. This case has now been handed over by the Navy to the Recife Police Department for investigation. He wasn''t worried about any surprises at all. After all, the person in charge of the investigation is one of the participants, so what can the other party find out? It seems that the police department of Leixife should be urged to come to a conclusion as soon as possible. Otherwise, if these boring reporters keep their eyes on this case, it will be troublesome if they are found to be abnormal. Thinking of this, he unconsciously speeded up his breakfast. After breakfast, with the help of his wife, he tidied up his uniform, and after taking a good look in front of the mirror, he put on his hat and went out. There was already a special car waiting for him outside the door. Soon, Raymond Eddie returned to his office. Glancing at the young secretary who was wearing a police uniform and also looked bumpy, he couldn''t help but his eyes lit up. Coughed twice before entering the door: "Salianna, make me a cup of coffee and bring it in, add three cubes of sugar, I want to be as sweet as you, understand?" As he spoke, his eyes scanned the little secretary up and down, and he swallowed unconsciously. The little secretary didn''t mind the eyes of his chief who wanted to swallow him alive, smiled slightly, stood up and cast a wink at Raymond Eddie and said with a coquettish smile: "Yes, Mr. Director. But me, I cant guarantee that I can be sweet! " Raymond Eddie heard the words, the corners of his mouth turned up, his eyes glanced around, and found that no one noticed the interaction between the two. Seriously said: "Then bring them all in and let me have a taste." After speaking, he pushed the door open and entered the office. The little secretary outside the door rolled her eyes charmingly, and twisted her waist to make coffee for her chief. Raymond Eddie, who entered the office, threw the briefcase in his hand on the desk, grabbed the phone and dialed it. "Director Cliff Deeney? I''m Police Headquarters Sheriff Raymond Eddy! " "Did you read the newspaper this morning?" "Is there any progress in the arms smuggling case that was accidentally seized by the navy last time?" "Well! As long as there is progress, then hurry up and close the case. We need to explain to the public! Otherwise, these news media always hold on to this small case, which will greatly affect our image, understand? " "Okay, as long as you understand!" At this time, the little secretary was holding the coffee, twisting Xiaoman''s waist and pushing the door in. Raymond Eddie, who was sitting on the office chair, raised his mouth and waved to the little secretary, signaling him to come over. "By the way, the person I sent to assist you in investigating this case, what''s the situation now?" The little secretary put the coffee on Raymond Eddy''s desk. Raymond Eddie didn''t go to pick up the coffee, but put his free hand on the little secretary''s peach and rubbed it back and forth. The little secretary was not angry either, she gave her leader a charming look, and was about to leave. Raymond Eddie stopped her waist, dragged her into his arms, and sat on his lap. The little secretary snorted, "Ah!" He beat his chest lightly with his hand again. Raymond Eddie smiled, and began to explore around with his empty hands. The little secretary was so coquettish and angry, her face was like a peach blossom. The other end of the phone obviously noticed something unusual. Just listen to Raymond Eddy: "I''m fine, you continue to talk!" "So they''re out to sea, right?" "Did you say when you can come back?" "Oh! Is there a typhoon? Will you be able to return to Recife after that week?" "Well! Very good! Remember to ask him to report the progress of the case to me as soon as he comes back." "Okay, let''s do this first! Let''s get together at the next club meeting." "goodbye!" After the call was over, the little secretary in his arms had collapsed into his arms like a puddle of mud. Raymond Eddie smiled and lowered his head to taste it. After more than ten minutes, the little secretary pushed open the office door with a flushed face, and returned to her desk, as if nothing had happened. Raymond Eddie, who had just sent his little secretary away, was enjoying a cigarette after the event, and he was in a trance. The phone on the table rang suddenly, startling him, the cigarette in his hand was thrown up and he did two dances before catching it. "Hey! Who is it!" "Ah! It''s Uncle Thomas! Sorry! I just finished a case." "Yes! Okay, I''ll be right over!" After hanging up the phone, he breathed a sigh of relief, got up and straightened his police uniform, took off his police hat strap from the coat rack next to him, and went to the mirror to straighten his appearance again. Seeing himself in the mirror, he unconsciously revealed a smile. I can''t help feeling that I''m such a handsome guy, no wonder so many women like me. Then pushed the door out and walked directly to the office of the Brazilian Police Chief. The secretary of the chief of police saw him coming, got up and saluted, and greeted him. Unfortunately, this secretary is a middle-aged man, and Raymond Eddy is not interested in him. just nodded politely. The secretary got up and went to the door of the chief executive''s office and knocked on the door, and heard a "Come in!" from inside Just pushed the door in and reported inside. Quickly opened the door directly, beckoning Raymond Eddie to go in. Raymond Eddie took a look at his appearance again, and after confirming that there was no problem, he strode in. "Mr. Chief, Raymond Eddy reports to you!" The chief of police on the opposite side is a bald man in his fifties with gold-rimmed glasses. Seeing Raymond Eddie come in, he pointed to the reception area in front of the desk and said: "Come on, sit down and chat." Raymond Eddie nodded with a smile, and sat directly on the sofa in the reception area. The secretary who just opened the door for him had brought two cups of coffee to the two of them. After gesturing to them, he turned around and left the office, closing the door of the office. After the secretary left, Raymond Eddie finally relaxed, and leaned on the sofa somewhat casually. "Uncle Thomas, is there anything you want me to do by calling me here?" The relationship between the two is obviously very close. Seeing Raymond Eddie''s performance, Thomas Cisse, who is the Chief of Police, did not show any dissatisfaction. Just smiled, took a sip of coffee and said: "I called you here to tell you that the new director of the St. Paul Police Department has been confirmed." As one of the only two big cities in Brazil, Sao Paulo''s economic status is even higher than that of Rio de Janeiro. Therefore, everyone is very concerned about the position of the chief of police in St. Paul, although the chief must be appointed by the elected mayor. However, this candidate can only be selected from within the police station, and there is not much room for choice. Knowing the news, Raymond Eddie sat up straight, looked seriously at Chief of Police Thomas Cisse and said: "Oh! Is it one of ours?" Thomas Cisse nodded with a smile and said: "I don''t have a deep impression of this person. His name is Laurent Diabate. He has a red neck. He is definitely not one of us." When Redmond Eddie heard this, his face became ugly, and he patted the sofa seat and said: "What the **** is going on with this mayor of St. Paul, why isn''t the police chief chosen every time one of ours. Are you trying to deliberately oppose us? " "Be safe and don''t be impatient! Others don''t know who we are, so we must only choose the person he thinks is suitable! Isnt the last one his classmate? " The chief of police smiled casually and waved his hand, signaling Raymond Eddie to calm down. "Then can we find a way to get rid of this red neck, we have never had a red neck chief in our police system, not in all of Brazil. Its all right now, one of the most important police stations in the police system, the chief of the St. Paul Police Department is actually a red neck. Speaking out will make other departments laugh. " Raymond Eddie seemed very dissatisfied, and directly lost his temper in the office of the Chief of Police. But the chief of police firmly shook his head and said: "No, the current St. Paul Police Department is a big quagmire. Such a big thing just happened, we must not act rashly. Actually, I think there is nothing wrong with a red neck. After all, the future Sao Paulo will not be particularly stable. It is better to have him around than to directly expose our people. " Clearly Thomas Cisse is a wily old fox. It can also be seen from the situation and attitude of the two people''s communication that they are from the same faction. In fact, Thomas Sissy was originally Craig Eddy''s secretary. After Craig Eddy was transferred to the Department of Justice, he was not transferred. Instead, he was left at police headquarters. I dont know where he got through, but he was appointed as the chief of police of the new government. That''s why Raymond Eddy is so casual with him. It is also the reason why the Eddie family still stands at the police headquarters after Craig Eddie left. After listening to Thomas Sissy''s words, Raymond Eddie thought about it and quickly reacted. Hastily nodded with a smile and said: "Haha. Uncle Thomas is right, let him be the second Hodges. This is more interesting. " Police chief Thomas Cisse looked at the second son of the old superior, and felt a little sighed in his heart! What a tiger father and dog son! If it wasn''t for the old superior Craig Eddie''s great kindness to him, he wouldn''t know that this guy is muddy and can''t stand on the wall, and he would still flatter him. Wants to fulfill the agreement with his old superior and send his second son, Raymond Eddie, to the position of the future chief of police. But judging from the current situation, this second son is simply a person with great ambition and little talent. Acting impulsively, completely disregarding the consequences, forcing himself to help him wipe his ass. What''s more, he actually took over his father''s little lover. A person who can do such unethical things really challenges his bottom line. Fortunately, his elder brother Briso Eddie is very different from him, he is a smart and capable guy. It''s a pity that the other party chose his own future path long ago and wanted to go into politics. Otherwise, it would be much easier to train his elder brother. What I have to do now is to protect Raymond Eddie from accidents, When the next government is re-elected, if Mr. Vargas can be successfully elected. Then, his elder brother, Brisso Eddie, will definitely find a way to send Raymond Eddie to the position of Chief of Police. In this way, I have completed the task. (end of this chapter) Chapter 342: Chapter 342 Police Chief Thomas Cisse heard Raymond Eddie''s words, but he didn''t smile, but just looked at him quietly. It wasn''t until Raymond Eddie felt his eyes that he fell silent. said a little nervously: "Uncle Thomas, what''s the matter?" "Appointing a redneck to be the chief of police is a small matter, and the city of Sao Paulo has submitted another report is a big matter." Thomas Cisse saw the other party slowly calm down, so he opened his mouth slowly. These words obviously made Raymond Eddie stunned, and he said in a puzzled way: "What report does the St. Paul City Government have to submit to the Police Headquarters?" This time Thomas Cisse did not answer directly, but asked rhetorically: "What do you think?" Hearing this, Raymond Eddie was even more puzzled, and said in doubt: "Is it related to me? It shouldn''t be! I have nothing to do with the city government of Sao Paulo!" Raymond Eddy''s performance made Thomas Cisse even more dissatisfied, he shook his head slightly, closed his eyes, leaned back on the sofa, and said slowly: "The report submitted by the St. Paul City Government stipulates that future police recruitment can only be recruited from graduates of professional police schools. And require all police officers of the St. Paul Police Department to participate in the training of the police academy, and only after passing the training can they be re-employed. " "What? Is S?o Paulo also planning to establish a police academy? What do they want to do?" This time, Raymond Eddie couldn''t sit still anymore. He suddenly got up, staring at Thomas Cisse with an angry face, as if he wanted the other party to give him an explanation. Thomas Cisse didn''t know whether he had expected Raymond Eddie''s reaction long ago, or he was really closing his eyes and resting his mind. He didn''t open his eyes to look at him at all. Just continued to answer on his own: "St. Paul is not planning to re-establish the police academy, but wants to pay a sum of money to the police academy in Natal and entrust them to help train the academy, And receive graduates from the Natal Police School to work in the Natal Police Department. " "These bastards, where to recruit police officers is the right of our Police Headquarters, and it is our Police Headquarters who want to open a police academy. This must have something to do with that **** yellow monkey, it must be some kind of agreement he made with the mayor of Sao Paulo. Damn it, this is a matter of our police system, why should they intervene. " Raymond Eddie''s good mood was completely lost, and he became distraught, walking back and forth in the chief of police''s office. Police chief Thomas Cisse slowly opened his eyes, and glanced at Raymond Eddie, who was incompetent and furious in his office like an angry bull that couldn''t find its target. Helplessly smiled and said: "It''s good that you know, I told you a long time ago. You should have been involved in the management of the Natal Police Academy at the beginning, but you always feel that other people''s police academy is a joke. Also because of other people''s actions to rectify the Natal Police Department, they went to war. Why bother? You have to understand that politics is the art of compromise. It''s all right now, and I have created a powerful enemy for myself. If others know that you are behind everything, do you know what you will face? " After hearing this, Raymond Eddie smiled disdainfully and said: "So what''s the matter? The investigation team of the Ministry of Justice went down, and what can they find? All traces have been wiped clean, so what if that Fang is a general, can he know that it was me who attacked him? Hehe, even if he knew that I was the one who attacked him, what could he do with me. How much background can a soldier have, how dare he go to war with my Eddie family? " Looking at the arrogant Raymond Eddie in front of him, Thomas Cisse thought to himself, this child is hopeless. Others are already major generals, holding most of Brazil''s naval power in their hands, with more than 10,000 soldiers under their command. The real military strength is actually just a soldier in your mouth. It seems that in your eyes, I, the chief of police, is still your father''s dog! Thinking of this, Thomas Cisse felt that he should not get so close to the other party in the future. His father has been kind to him, and he is already doing his best to repay it. But now this piece of mud obviously cannot support the wall! Maybe he should talk to his eldest brother, lest one day, this arrogant guy bring disaster to the Eddie family. Coughed twice, after Thomas Cisse stabilized his emotions, he continued to speak slowly: "Then how do you think this matter should be handled now?" "Does this still need to be said? Of course it is a direct rejection and the report is returned to Sao Paulo." Raymond Eddie looked at the chief of police with an expression on his face that you are an idiot, and gave orders impatiently. Thomas Cisse seemed to be accustomed to this, a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes, but he still said calmly and kindly: "Don''t you think it''s a better idea for us to participate in the management of the police academy? It is impossible for the other party to refuse our request to intervene in the management of the police academy in the name of the police headquarters. Only in this way can we cultivate more of our own people! " Unexpectedly, Raymond Eddie was full of disdain, and directly waved his hand and said: "Why do we need so many useless grassroots police officers? I think my father''s approach is the most perfect. As long as we pull the tested and excellent middle-level police officers into the club. And through our relationship, let the other party get a quick promotion. We will naturally be able to firmly control the power of the police system, why bother to waste time on those worthless students. Wait for them to pass the test and become middle-level police officers! " Seeing Raymond Eddie''s dismissive expression and self-willed character, Thomas Cisse sighed helplessly again. shook his head and said: "We can''t return this report!" Hearing Thomas Cisse''s words, Raymond Eddie''s face was bruised, and he stared at the other party angrily, and said unceremoniously: "why?" At this time, the police chief didn''t want to explain any more to him. Seeing his expression as if he was about to eat people, he shook his head slightly, took a sip of coffee, and then slowly leaned on the sofa, closed his eyes, and slowly road: "This is obviously the mayor of Sao Paulo''s compensation to the police station for their involvement in the assassination. We have no reason to refuse. " At this moment, Raymond Eddie felt that his father''s secretary seemed to no longer obey the orders of the second son of his family. made him feel very dissatisfied, and continued to say: "The mayor of Sao Paulo, why should he use the power of our police system to make compensation." Thomas Cisse felt that it was unnecessary for him to discuss this issue with the other party. He originally wanted to make the other party wake up and take the initiative to participate in the construction of the police academy. But the other party obviously didn''t understand his good intentions. Instead, he couldn''t grasp the point and wanted to argue with himself to win or lose. With such a character, if he is really appointed as the chief of the Brazilian police, then the Brazilian police system will not be a mess! It is estimated that the grassroots police will rebel against him immediately! But the relationship between himself and their family forced him to continue to explain to him patiently. "The reason is very simple. There are policemen among the people involved in the assassination of the other party. This is an action you arranged yourself. Did you forget? If we don''t go downhill, keep a low profile. Are you going to resist the refusal and let General Fang look suspiciously at our police headquarters? Dont forget, the police system, our police headquarters is also the management department. Do you think that if the other party does not hold our police headquarters accountable, our police headquarters has no responsibility, and there is no need to compensate the other party? If you refuse, once General Fang pays attention to us, how long do you think you, the black hand behind the scenes, can hide? " These words are actually a bit of a reproach, Fortunately, Raymond Eddy is just arrogant and headstrong. But he wasn''t stupid. From Thomas Cisse''s tone, he could hear the other party''s dissatisfaction. This is the Minister of Gu Ming who was specially trained by his father to support him. It is impossible for him to fight against the other party. And, in his opinion, the police academy is really a small role, irrelevant. There is no need to annoy the other party for such a trivial matter. What''s more, what the other party said is also reasonable. Now the hostile relationship between myself and that general Fang is still in a one-way transparent state. There is absolutely no need for me to expose myself to the other party because of such a trivial matter. Although I am not afraid of the opponent, it is much safer to hide in the dark and attack others than to fight directly face to face! "Uh! Uncle Thomas, don''t be angry, it''s my nephew who is not sensible. Then we will do as you wish. I dont know if there is anything else to do, if not, Ill go back first. " Thomas Cisse didn''t say much about Raymond Eddie''s feeling that he didn''t want to stay with him any longer, but just gave him a helpless glance. Close your eyes and wave your hands, signaling the other party to leave. Raymond Eddie didn''t say much, put on his police cap, pushed the door and walked out. After walking out of the chief of police''s office, Raymond Eddie''s face immediately turned livid, and he walked back to the office without saying a word. He didn''t even pay attention to the delicious little secretary at the door saying hello. After entering the office, he slammed his police cap on the ground, cursing non-stop. also knocked the things on the desk to the ground. Hearing the movement in the office, the little secretary who wanted to go in to seek comfort because she didn''t get a response, was so scared that she quickly shrank back to her desk and started to work seriously. It took more than ten minutes for the movement in the office to slowly quiet down. Raymond Eddie''s good mood did not recover from the day. That night, instead of going home, he drove directly to a small villa on the outskirts of Rio de Janeiro. In this villa, he received his father''s inheritance, a delicate, very gentle Japanese woman. The anger in him needs to be vented here. Sure enough, this is the haven for men. When Raymond Eddie woke up the next day, his irritability had completely disappeared. Raymond Eddie, who returned to work at the police headquarters, felt refreshed and indescribably happy. When I saw the little secretary again, I also regained my smile. But this morning''s little secretary had a strange expression on his face, looking at him with a little more searching and alienation. Raymond Eddie thought to himself, didn''t the office just smashed up yesterday? This is not the first time, is it necessary to look at yourself with such eyes? As a big man, of course he wouldn''t bother with a delicious little sweetheart. So, he said indifferently: "Salianna, make me a cup of coffee and bring it in, and help me with today''s newspaper by the way." After speaking, he pushed open the door of the office and walked in. He saw that the messy office that he smashed yesterday had returned to its best state. Nodding in satisfaction. (end of this chapter) Chapter 343: Retaliation plan starts Chapter 343 Revenge Plan Launched Today''s coffee was obviously not as timely as yesterday''s. About ten minutes later, the little secretary Sally Anna came in nervously with coffee and a newspaper. Seeing his little secretary''s cautious expression, Raymond Eddie smiled and waved, motioning for the other party to stand by his side. The little secretary lowered his head as if he didn''t see his movements. After putting the coffee on the desk, he put the newspaper on the desk and pushed it in front of Raymond Eddie. Seeing this situation, Raymond Eddie frowned and was about to speak. But the little secretary said softly: "Mr. Director, you should read today''s newspaper first!" After finishing speaking, he quickly left the office. Hearing this, Raymond Eddie frowned even tighter. Looking down at the newspaper on the table, I saw the headline on the front page read impressively. "Shock! The Chief of Public Security of the Police Headquarters is actually an arms smuggler! " Just one glance made Raymond Eddie''s scalp numb, his eyeballs bulged, and he picked up the newspaper on the table with disbelief and read it carefully. According to the description in the newspaper, the Brazilian Navy destroyer spotted a suspicious-looking ship while performing a patrol mission yesterday. After inspection by naval patrol personnel, it was confirmed that this was an arms smuggling ship that had just completed an arms transaction. At the same time, this is also the second arms smuggling ship recently discovered by naval patrols. In view of the case of the first arms smuggling ship, the police did not report the results of the investigation to the navy. So, the Navy launched an investigation and interrogation of the criminals on the arms smuggling ship. Interrogation revealed that the ship had just traded in armaments for arming a battalion. A total of 15 criminals were arrested this time, one of whom was the **** arranged by the buyer. The rest of the staff are all gang members in the Recife area. According to the confession of the **** arranged by the buyer and the gang leader of the arms seller, the buyer of these two batches of arms is Mr. Raymond Eddie, Director of the Security Department of the Brazilian Police Headquarters. As for Mr. Raymond Eddy, the reason why he participated in the arms transaction remains to be further investigated. Seeing this, Raymond Editon stood up immediately, looked around, and was at a loss for a moment. Just when he was panicking, the door of the office was pushed open. Police Chief Thomas Cisse broke in directly with a livid face, yelling loudly: "Raymond, what are you doing? Is this thing true? " Raymond Eddie was also a little panicked at this time, and saw the crowd outside the office who were looking around to check the situation here. Quickly got up, went to the door and closed it. stood in front of Thomas Cisse and whispered: "Uncle Thomas, listen to me!" "Explain? How? I just want to know if the things in the newspaper are true. " Thomas Cisse was obviously furious, he waved his hand unceremoniously, and interrupted directly. Raymond Eddie didn''t know how to answer this question for a while. If you admit it directly, needless to say, it must be a heinous crime. If you dont say anything else, your position as the chief of the Public Security Department will definitely not be guaranteed. But if he refuses to admit it, it is impossible to hide it from the eyes and ears of the chief of police. Just a little inspection will know the truth of the matter. Thomas Cisse saw his expression and understood that what the newspaper said was true. For a moment, I felt a wave of anger rushing straight to Tianling Gai, and with a sound of "Slap!", a slap directly slapped Raymond Eddie''s face. "Idiot, you idiot! You are the head of the Public Security Department of the dignified police headquarters, why are you involved in arms trafficking. Are you short of money? Even if you are short of money, there are so many legitimate businesses you can do, but you dont want to do it, why would you want to sell arms. You tell me, why? " This slap stunned Raymond Eddie. His own father had never slapped him, but today he was slapped by his father''s secretary. Moreover, he heard the other party cursing himself as an idiot unceremoniously. This made him even more unhappy, his fists were clenched and creaked for a while, the fist in his hand was raised and lowered, and he wanted to punch back. Fortunately, he knew that this matter still needs to be handled by the father''s secretary in front of him. Now is not the time to offend the other party, but in his heart, he has already recorded this account. The resentment in the eyes flashed away. Naturally, his movements couldn''t be fooled by the sophisticated Thomas Sissy. At this moment, Thomas Cisse, looking at the second son of the old leader in front of him, felt indescribably sad. I wholeheartedly serve the other party, but the other party not only doesn''t appreciate it, but thinks it should be taken for granted, and has no respect for myself, treating myself like an old servant. It is really chilling, and I have to sigh again. He hoped that the other party could directly attack and punch him, so that he could directly use this as an excuse to sever the relationship with the other party. Don''t need to be as passive as you are now. Although the opponent suppressed the anger in his heart, the resentment in his eyes was shocking. Maybe the other party will never remember my kindness at all, and when the other party no longer needs me, maybe I will be ready to face the other party''s revenge. Thinking of this, Thomas Cisse''s heart immediately became cold. But since the other party refrained from doing anything, I had to find a way to wipe his ass. Forcibly controlling his emotions, after exhaling a long breath, Thomas Cisse took two steps slowly, sat down in the reception area of ??the office, and said in a cold tone: "Can you tell me why?" Raymond Eddie saw Thomas Cisse''s appearance and knew it was time to discuss how to clean up the mess. In the past, every time after I got into trouble, the other party wiped my butt, I used to say this! Raymond Eddie would never hide anything about his uncle. But this time, his father''s lover was involved, and of course the lover also knew about it. The problem is that now that I have taken over this lover, if the other party knows about this, the other party may lose his temper even more. He didn''t want another slap. After much consideration, he still decided to hide the real reason from the other party. Anyway, no matter what the reason is, the other party will definitely find a way to help him solve this problem. But he couldn''t think of any suitable reason for a while. Just as he was racking his brains to find a convincing reason, Thomas Cisse had already spoken directly: "Since you don''t want to talk, I won''t ask. Have you considered how to deal with this matter? " Hearing that the other party no longer asked him why, Raymond Eddie let out a long sigh of relief, because this excuse is really not easy to find. But what he didn''t know was that the other party didn''t even want to ask the most basic reason. This means that the other party no longer wants to take care of his affairs, that is to say, he is completely desperate for him. And he obviously didn''t think of this, instead he said carelessly: "I immediately asked someone to seize the newspaper and arrest the reporters who reported indiscriminately." This answer made Thomas Cisse completely speechless, and he closed his eyes directly, not wanting to see this idiot again, talking nonsense in front of himself. But he still forced himself to control his emotions and asked: "and then?" "What then?" Raymond Eddie didn''t quite understand what the other party meant. "Do you know what the consequences will be if you deal with it like this?" The chief of police was expressionless and his tone was cold. Any fool knows that he must have said something wrong, and Raymond Eddie may also realize that this matter cannot be handled in this way. The voice of speaking is a little lower. "do not know!" At this moment, a thousand animals with long necks like sheep stepped through Thomas Sissy''s mind. The fist in his hand was tightly clenched, and he let it go slowly helplessly. sighed again, slowly opened his eyes, and said calmly: "Recently, you have a long vacation, rest at home or go on a trip!" Before Thomas Cisse finished speaking, Raymond Eddie said with an unbelievable expression: "What? You want me suspended and sent home? I am the Chief of the Public Security Department of the Police Headquarters. Just because these newspapers report a few random words, I will be suspended and go home. Are you making too much of a fuss? " As the chief of police, Thomas Cisse, looking at Raymond Eddie in front of him at this moment, felt that he had completely given up. Such an idiot, if it weren''t for his father''s insistence, he might not even be a low-level policeman. But now he has become the Director of the Public Security Department of the Police Headquarters, and may become the Chief of Police in the future. Even he found it extremely absurd. I even feel that if the other party really becomes the chief of police, it may be a huge irony for the entire Brazilian political circle! This made him, for the first time, start to examine whether what he was doing was right. Maybe after this incident, I need to think about my future position. Right now there are reporters everywhere outside police headquarters, everyone is waiting to interview you. At the same time, we are waiting for the handling opinions of our police headquarters. How do you think you should explain all this to the reporters outside? If you were the chief of police, how do you think you should handle this matter. " Raymond Eddie was startled when he heard that there were reporters everywhere outside waiting to interview him. This is not something to show your face. If your embarrassed appearance is photographed by a reporter and it is published in the newspaper, how can you sit in the position of chief of police in the future. As for how to explain it to outside reporters, what is there to explain! The internal affairs of the police headquarters can be dealt with internally. It has nothing to do with you reporters. But obviously I can''t say that myself. "If you can be suspended" Seeing Raymond Eddie hesitate to speak, how could Thomas Cisse not understand the other party''s mind. Helplessly shook his head and said: "This is only temporary, we just give these reporters and the public an explanation. After the impact of this matter slowly disappears, you will naturally be transferred back to the police headquarters. At that time, you will still be the head of the public security department of the police headquarters and the future police chief. " Only now did Raymond Eddie feel relieved, and said reluctantly: "Alright then! I''ll go home first to avoid the limelight." Seeing that the other party was willing to accept his opinion, Thomas Cisse breathed a sigh of relief. But at the same time, he had some doubts in his heart. This matter was obviously a bit strange. Why were the two arms smugglings seized by naval patrols. Is this a coincidence or someone did it on purpose. Its okay if its a coincidence, But if someone did it on purpose, what is the other party''s purpose? No one should naively think that such a small matter can bring down the Eddie family! Now the Chief of Police is most worried about whether General Fang of the Rio de Janeiro Aircraft Carrier Battle Group is behind this incident. If it is, it means that the other party already knows who is behind the assassination of him last time. In this case, the Eddie family is in big trouble. (end of this chapter) Chapter 344: Event fermentation Chapter 344 Event Fermentation Thomas Cisse, chief of police, was puzzled, but he didn''t say anything about it directly. It''s not that he doesn''t want Raymond Eddie to know, the main reason is that he knows the other party''s character very well. Once he tells the other party the news, the other party will definitely take direct action without hesitation. But now all of this is his guess, and he can''t let Raymond Eddie attack the opposing general again just because of his guess. After the last assassination incident, General Fang must have had more stringent protection. If he tries to attack him again at this time, he may be bitten by the opponent. They can''t take risks. After all, once the Eddie family is found out, his relationship with the Eddie family must not be concealed. What Thomas Eddie didn''t know was that everyone who had a relationship with Eddie''s family had been closely monitored. Everyone''s every move is under the supervision of the Second Division of the Logistics Department. The investigation department of Fangyuan Group followed Fang Lang''s order and all staff withdrew. It''s not that Fang Lang doesn''t trust the investigation department. On the contrary, he regards them as his most secret cards, so he deliberately hides them to avoid letting anyone know of their existence. Now this force is not strong enough, so Fang Lang asked Zhong Ze to find two kind priests, and in their names, opened two orphanages in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro. Began to adopt many orphans in the society, and selected potential orphans from these orphans, and sent them to a farm in Rio Grande do Sul for training. Among these orphans, there are whites, blacks, red necks, and every skin color. The oldest is no more than thirteen or fourteen years old, and the youngest is only six or seven years old. Of course, the procedures are not simply to send people away, but to adopt them in the name of various people, but in fact these adopters do not exist at all, this is a means to deal with government inspections. Perhaps when these little guys really leave their teachers, a small fire may break out in this orphanage. Some documents may be destroyed by fire. As for the identity of these orphans, it is hard to say when they will return to society. At this moment, a large number of reporters are surrounded outside the Police Headquarters. Most of them are holding notebooks, some are holding cameras, and the most special one is two people who are playing with a video camera. For a while, the other reporters around me looked sideways. After all, cameras for news interviews are new in this era. But these are real reporters, and there is nothing strange about it. But there are actually two people with special identities in this group of people. They are not ordinary reporters, but agents of the Second Division of the Logistics Department. The purpose of their coming here is of course not for interviews. Although the two of them are just dressed as ordinary reporters, they hold simple notebooks and pens in their hands. But the bags I carry are slightly larger than ordinary bags. Time passed little by little, everyone''s request to go in for an interview has not been approved, and the person they want to interview has never shown up. This made the reporters waiting at the gate of the Police Headquarters dissatisfied, and they clamored and demanded to interview Raymond Eddie face to face. I don''t know how long it took, a young man in a suit and leather shoes who looked very imposing, without knowing what to think, slipped in from the guard who blocked him at the door. Completely ignoring the yelling of the guards behind him, he ran towards the office building of the police headquarters. This was a stab at a hornet''s nest. The reporters who were blocked outside, how could they allow such good news to be exclusive to their colleagues, and broke through the blockade unruly, and rushed into the building of the police headquarters. All of a sudden, people are on their backs. Two detectives from the second division of the logistics department looked at each other, and followed the crowd towards the office building. But the blindness of the two of them was completely different from the others, as if they knew the layout of the police headquarters, they went directly to a bathroom on the second floor. The two people who were dressed as reporters when they entered had already changed into police uniforms when they came out. The two who walked out of the toilet looked at each other and nodded. Started to walk upstairs, and when passing by the Office of the Chief of Public Security on the fourth floor, he happened to see a group of reporters blocking a large group of policemen at the door of the Chief of Public Security''s office. He was chattering about something, and the people being questioned were the Chief of Police and the Chief of Public Security. With just one glance, the two of them could see how ugly the faces of the people surrounded were. But in the face of the cameras that the reporters kept taking pictures, he had to show his generosity, forced a smile on his face, and barely coped with the reporters'' questions. The two looked at each other the same way, with smiles in their eyes, nodded slightly, and lowered the brim of their hats even lower. Passing past the crowd as if nothing had happened, he arrived outside the office of the chief of police unimpeded all the way, but saw the secretary of the chief of police still working outside the office. After the two made eye contact, one of them walked up to the secretary and said: "Mr. Chief is surrounded by reporters outside Chief Eddie''s office." The secretary was stunned for a moment, and said in surprise: "How did the reporter get in?" "I don''t know either! But I saw that Mr. Chief was surrounded inside, and the situation seemed to be not good. So, let me let you know if you need help? " I didn''t think there was anything wrong with the secretary, but when I heard that the situation of the leader was not good, I didn''t have time to think about it, so I got up and said: "Thank you for your reminder, I''ll go and have a look now." The young man watched the secretary leave, but the person who came with him had already pushed open the door of the chief''s office and slipped in. Looking at the surrounding environment, the young man came to the rest area at the door of the office and sat down, waiting patiently like a small cadre waiting to be received by the leader. By the way, be vigilant for the companions inside. After more than ten minutes, the chief''s office door was opened from the inside. The companion glanced at the young man waiting at the door and nodded to him. The young man glanced around, found nothing unusual, and then nodded to his companion. The companion pushed the door out, and after the two reunited at the door, they went downstairs without stopping, and walked out of the police headquarters building swaggeringly. No longer pay attention to what happens inside. The two of them didn''t go far, turned into an alley, came to an apartment building not far from the police headquarters, and knocked on the door regularly. Soon the door was opened from the inside, and the people inside looked at the two, nodded at each other and let them in. The two of them went directly to a room on the second floor, where a person was looking at documents on the desk. Seeing two people coming in, this person raised his head. It was Silva Carpenter, the deputy chief of the Natal Police Department and the second division of the Logistics Department. "Is things going well?" The two looked at each other, laughed and said: "Haha. Sir, it went smoothly beyond imagination. The people at the Police Headquarters were all entangled by those reporters. We easily entered the office of Chief Cisse. " Hearing that things were going well, Silva Carpenter let out a sigh of relief. This operation was actually very risky. Sneak into the office of the chief of the Brazilian Police Headquarters. If you are discovered, the consequences will be very serious. But at this moment their investigation results show that the chief of police turned out to be the secretary general of the police club, and the list of all members of the club is kept in his office. If they want to know who are in this club, they must get this list. It is impossible for the chief of police to hand over such an important thing to them. In order to grasp the situation as soon as possible, he can only make a bad move. "Did you find something?" "Yes, sir. All the lists I got captured by me with this tiny camera. " The young man who sneaked into the office took out a mahjong-sized camera from his pocket, and handed it to Silva Carpenter. Silva Carpenter looked at the miniature camera in front of him with a satisfied smile on his face. With this list, it means that all members of the Police Club have fallen into their grasp. As for the people on this list, how to deal with them in the future is not something he can decide. Just as Silva Carpenter was happy to have completed the task, Raymond Eddie of the Police Headquarters was already on the verge of breaking out. Just as he had communicated with Chief of Police Thomas Cisse about how to deal with this matter, and was about to sneak home, he was blocked by a group of reporters at the door of the office. Before he understood what was going on, there was a sound of cameras taking photos at the door, and flashes were lit from time to time, which almost blinded his eyes. Raymond Eddie, who had already suppressed his anger, was about to explode in an instant. Fortunately, Thomas Cisse, who was following behind him, reacted quickly, grabbed Raymond Eddie who was about to explode, and dragged him behind him. Pushed himself to the front. And took the opportunity to whisper in Raymond Eddie''s ear: "Don''t make a sound, let me answer anything." After speaking, he tidied up his attire and stood in front of the reporters. Coughed twice, ready to appease the reporter who broke in. But these reporters obviously didn''t intend to listen to what he had to say, and everyone''s target was on Raymond Eddy. A bunch of long guns and short cannons directly passed Thomas Sissy and hit Raymond Eddie''s face. Some of them even hit Raymond Eddy, which made Raymond Eddy very angry, but he also understood that now the public is in public, and he must maintain his image. So, gritted his teeth and resisted the urge to get angry, and took a slight step back. "Director Eddie, please talk about your purpose of smuggling arms." "Mr. Eddie, as the Director of the Public Security Department of the Police Headquarters, what do you know about breaking the law?" "Mr. Eddie, how did you become the head of the Public Security Department of the Police Headquarters at such a young age?" "Mr. Eddie, is the arms smuggling your private act or the police headquarters'' act." "Mr. Eddie, I heard that your father was the previous Deputy Minister of Justice. Is it related to your father that you became the chief of the Public Security Department at such a young age?" "Mr. Eddie, is arms smuggling your family business? How long has your family been involved in arms smuggling?" The reporters asked sharp questions one after another, and all the policemen on the scene were ashen-faced. The police who have been in charge of blocking these reporters pushed all the reporters more than one meter away abruptly, and they were about to be pushed back by the reporters. The policemen passing by also joined in one after another, pushing the reporters back more than two meters. Police Chief Thomas Cisse finally had some room for movement. He has met many times to answer reporters'' questions, but today''s one is the craziest one he has encountered, bar none. Obviously, everyone''s concern about this big news far exceeds any information disclosed by the police headquarters in the past. This is also rare for him, after all, the Brazilian government has liberalized news control, that is, in the past two years. The original news media were the mouthpieces of some governments, and all they publicized were positive images and information of some governments. Everyone is doing some normal propaganda work at the request of the government, there is no need to be too active. But there is a saying that is good, good things dont go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles. Some people have done some good deeds. Even if people see it in the newspaper, everyone may say "Oh!", thinking: Such a thing! Nothing unusual! I can do it too. But if someone does something bad, it is true, the speed of transmission is fast, everyone will meet and discuss their views on this matter, whether it is a familiar person or a stranger, they can find it instantly common topic. And talk endlessly. For the media, bad things spread more quickly, which can arouse heated discussions among the masses and increase the sales of newspapers. At the same time, the most important thing is to be able to reflect the role of the media in supervising the government. So the enthusiasm of the reporters is not the same. Thomas Cisse saw that the reporters were stopped at a safe distance of one meter, and then coughed twice: "My friends from the press, please calm down first. I am Brazilian Police Chief Tomas Cisse, and I just learned about the news reported by the Brazil Times today. We still need to investigate whether the matter is true or false, Now, based on an unfounded report, everyone has to suspect that our senior officials of the Brazilian Police Headquarters are too hasty. So I hope that everyone can give our Police Headquarters a little time, let us find out the truth of this matter, and then report the actual situation to everyone, okay? " As soon as the words fell, the reporters pointed their guns and short guns at Thomas Cisse. "Mr. President, are you questioning the authenticity of this report?" "Mr. Chief, are you trying to cover up Director Eddie?" "Excuse me, what is the relationship between Mr. Chief and Director Eddie?" "Mr. Chief, did you also participate in this arms smuggling case?" "Excuse me, Mr. Chief, is this arms smuggling an act of the Police Headquarters?" "May I ask, Mr. Chief, the first arms smuggling case, after the navy was handed over to the Recife Police Department, why there is no follow-up? Is it because the local police station is also involved?" "Excuse me, Mr. Chief, how do you plan to deal with Director Eddie?" "Mr. Chief, do you want to delay time?" The reporters asked questions like a series of cannonballs, and the chief of police, Thomas Cisse, didn''t know how to answer them for a while, and sweat began to break out on his forehead. (end of this chapter) Chapter 345: Eddies family reaction Chapter 345 The reaction of the Eddie family Regarding the aggressiveness of the reporters, the Police Headquarters was obviously inexperienced, and fell into a strange silence for a while. But the reporters on the opposite side were not prepared to easily let go of the police chief who took the initiative to stand up. The questions raised by ?? became sharper and more merciless than the last. Let all the police present feel disgraced. Finally, Chief of Police Thomas Cisse simply kept quiet and waited for the reporters to finish. The reporters made noise for five or six minutes and then slowly quieted down. There are dozens of questions raised, and it may take half a day to answer them one by one. Now Thomas Cisse doesn''t have so much time to waste with them. So, he simply chose a straightforward method. "Sorry, friends from the press, we have yet to investigate this case. Please wait patiently for the investigation results of the case, and I will definitely give you a satisfactory answer when the time comes. Go here first today! Please make room and don''t disturb our normal work order. " After speaking, he winked directly at the police officers around him, and everyone understood, and began to drive all the reporters out. Because this farce lasted for a long time, many policemen in the office building of the Police Headquarters rushed over. After hearing the commander''s order, everyone stepped forward one after another and began to drive the reporters out. The reporters didn''t get the news they wanted, so of course they didn''t want to leave. For a while, there was a fierce conflict with the police from the Police Headquarters. Many of these policemen are **** members of the Eddie family, so they are not polite to these policemen. Suddenly, a fierce physical conflict occurred. Because there were too many police officers, the reporters were finally invited out of the police headquarters one by one. The reporters who came out looked very embarrassed, and many of them had bruised noses and swollen faces. This made all the reporters very angry. It is conceivable that when they return to the newspaper office, they will describe their encounter today in the newspaper with embellishments. The entire process this time was completely recorded by the reporter sent by the TV station with a video camera. Of course, these are not the biggest problems facing Mr. Chief of Police and Raymond Eddy right now. Because this newspaper is distributed nationwide, everyone in the country has read it. This naturally includes senior government officials, including leaders at all levels of the Ministry of Justice and Mr. President. So, as soon as Thomas Cisse returned to the office, the office phone kept ringing. Both the Ministry of Justice and the Presidential Palace have called in, asking the police headquarters to give a clear explanation on this matter. For a while, Chief of Police Thomas Cisse was in a state of desperation. The focus of the incident, Raymond Eddy, drove away from the police headquarters soon after the reporter was asked out of the police headquarters. Just drove out of the police headquarters, and was soon spotted by reporters guarding outside, Fortunately, he didn''t slow down during the whole process, so he was not surrounded by reporters and escaped by luck. But before he breathed a sigh of relief, he found that his door was also surrounded by a group of reporters when he got home. This frightened him, he made a quick turn, turned and left, not even daring to go home. Drove the car to his home on Roy Avenue, This three-storey villa was purchased by his father. After his father passed away, it was left to his eldest brother, Briso Eddie. His mother and brother''s family lived here. It is working time now, my brother is not at home, only my mother and sister-in-law are there. Seeing Raymond Eddy, who was sweating profusely and looked embarrassed, hurried home, everyone was startled. He wanted to ask what was going on, but he didn''t say anything. He just called his wife and children and told them to stay at home and not go out. Don''t bother with questions from reporters outside the door, and don''t accept any interviews. Then he called his elder brother again. After the call was connected, I received a warm greeting from my elder brother. The elder brother didn''t even ask whether the matter was true or not, because he knew his younger brother well. He can do this stupid thing. "What did Uncle Thomas say?" Brother Brisso Eddie is a smart man. Now that the matter has been exposed, it is a waste of time to pursue responsibility. The most important thing now is how to minimize the impact of this matter, while maintaining his brother''s position in the Brazilian Police Headquarters, or the influence of the Eddie family in the police system. Although Brisso Eddie has now chosen to join the Labor Party and shift the focus of his work to party affairs, this does not mean that he will lose his family''s basic position in the police system. On the contrary, he hopes that through his success in the political party, he will further stabilize and strengthen the basic position of the Eddie family in the police system. It can even achieve the goal of completely controlling the police system. Unfortunately, a series of recent events have made him a little bit battered, since President Vargas was seized by General Dutra of the military because of the Japanese mob attacking the presidential palace. The development of their Labor Party has been seriously affected. Fortunately, by learning from the Communist Party of the Soviet Union to organize trade unions, the influence of the Labor Party began to grow rapidly in Brazil, and it was about to catch up with the size of the Social Democratic Party and the National League. However, they encountered the Fangyuan Group, which did not follow the routine. The other party directly cleared the Labor Party''s trade union organization from the entire Fangyuan Group by establishing a trade union. Then all the factories related to the entire Brazilian automobile industry system, and the factories and enterprises related to the Fangyuan Group, began to learn from the trade union organization of the Fangyuan Group. Quickly occupying positions, the trade union organizations that had finally managed to break into these factories around them were crushed. There is no chance to incorporate this trade union organization, because although the other party is apparently an independent workers'' organization. But in fact, it has a complete organizational structure, a complete organization at the first level of management and control. The main cadres in this trade union organization are directly appointed by the Fangyuan Group, which ensures that the Fangyuan Group has absolute control over this organization. It can be said that the size of the workers'' organizations held by the Fangyuan Group Federation of Trade Unions is comparable to the size of their labor unions in major cities such as Sao Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Porto Alegre, and Natal. This made their work very passive. But it is almost impossible to subdue this trade union organization, First of all, there is a big difference between this trade union and theirs. From the source of members, The other partys trade union is that as long as workers work in the other partys company, they automatically join the trade union organization without paying any membership fees. The normal operation of the trade union and the wages of the union cadres are all paid directly by the factory. The labor union organized by the Labor Party requires workers to apply for membership and pay membership fees. The person responsible for leading the local trade union is a member of the Labor Party and must accept the leadership of the Labor Party. It is impossible to join the other party''s factory to work, and the wages naturally need to be generated from these membership fees. What''s even more exasperating is that this trade union organization is more thorough in safeguarding the interests of workers. The labor union of the Labor Party is still thinking about reducing the working hours of the workers through negotiations with the factory owners, reducing the twelve-hour working system to ten-hour working hours. But while I was still negotiating with each other, the other party''s trade union had reached an agreement directly with the group, reducing the working hours of the workers to ten hours. According to rumors, the other party''s union actually wanted to learn from Ford in the United States and reduce the working hours from ten hours to eight hours. This is really killing people, this is Brazil! How long has everyone been freed from slavery? You start to look up to the most developed capitalist countries in the world, if you really make it happen. Should the trade unions of our Labor Party also follow suit? If they do, will we offend all the factory owners? If things go on like this, let alone the continued development of the Labor Party, it is estimated that it will not be able to raise the campaign funds needed to participate in government elections at all levels and the presidential election! It will directly become the deadly enemy of the capitalists, and if it is not done well, it will move closer to the Soviet Communist Party. But if you want to do this in such a place so close to the United States, you may think that you dont die fast enough! What''s even more hateful is that according to the information reported by his subordinates. The reason why Fangyuan Group developed the trade union organization was actually the idea of ??the other party''s boss after attending a trade union lecture organized by his own trade union staff. Although the small director of the local Labor Party branch in St. Paul died of a gun misfire due to an accident, it has to be said that this is a great shame. You need to know this little executive, but he is Brisso Eddie''s confidant! When he died in this accident, he was sad for a long time, and he even sent someone to his door to express condolences, and compensated his family a large sum of money. As for this little supervisor, no one knew about reporting a person''s whereabouts at that time. His death was a real accident, which is the final conclusion given by the police investigation. Now that I think about it, if this guy doesn''t die, I want to kill him. Its okay if the information provided doesnt achieve the purpose, It is an unforgivable crime to create such a powerful opponent for the Labor Party. Finally helped his brother wipe his **** clean. Before he could catch his breath, he planned how to solve this trade union organization. Now that his younger brother has made such a mess again, how can one not be upset. Hearing his elder brother''s angry questioning on the phone, Raymond Eddie carefully looked around and saw that no one at home was paying attention to him, so he lowered his voice and said: He asked me to take a long vacation first, rest at home for a while, or go on a trip. Wait for this matter to pass, and then go back to the police headquarters to go to work. " Briso Eddie on the phone pondered for a while before saying with a little doubt: "Did he say how this case is going to be handled?" Raymond Eddie was a little surprised by his elder brother''s question. Instead of asking himself what was going on with the case, he asked Thomas Cisse about how he planned to handle the case. But he knows that his elder brother has a better brain than himself, so he doesn''t have to think so much, and he can answer whatever the other party asks. "No, I just asked me if this matter is true, and I didn''t answer. He asked me to take a vacation for a while. However, when reporters blocked him in the office today, he said that the authenticity of this case remains to be investigated. The specific results will have to wait for the results of the police investigation. " I dont know what Brisso Eddie thought of, so he was silent for a while before saying: "Don''t you think the news these two days is too coincidental? I feel like I''m targeting you on purpose. Now it seems that Uncle Thomas feels it too. Since he asked you to take a long vacation, you should take a rest first! Wait until the limelight of this matter passes. " "Someone deliberately targeted me? It should be impossible! Does anyone in Brazil dare to blatantly trip up our Eddie family? I''ll have someone check it out right away to see if there''s someone playing tricks behind it. " Raymond Eddie immediately lost his temper when he heard that his elder brother suspected that this matter was not simple, and that someone might be targeting him. "Are you stupid, do you need to investigate this? Don''t you know whose property Brazil Times is? Why this news was published by Times of Brazil, have you never thought about it? " "Brother, do you mean which yellow-skinned monkey suspects us?" "I''m not sure yet. After all, this news was discovered by their naval fleet, and it is very possible to disclose this exclusive news to the Brazilian Times. This could also be a coincidence. But in the recent period, you have to be careful, the opponent is a military leader with a heavy hand. If the other party finds out that we are targeting him, he will definitely take drastic actions. " "Brother, don''t worry! Its not that I look down on him, even if he knows that we are targeting him, I dont believe he dares to do anything to us. The influence of our Eddie family in the government is not something that a small navy general like him can match. " "Asshole, can you have some brains, and you don''t even look at the background of today''s president. How dare you look down on people from the army. Are you desperate? Not to mention anything else, the other party will randomly send out a fully armed squad under them, and they can let you die on the street. " Hearing what the elder brother said, Raymond Eddie broke into a cold sweat instantly, and shouted loudly with a stern voice. "He dares!" His elder brother''s cold words came from the phone. "You dare to attack him, why doesn''t he dare to attack you. What''s more, as long as he finds evidence, we are the first to do it, and if he does it to you, no one can say anything! " Raymond Eddie''s voice no longer had the original confidence, so he could only hold on and say: "It''s impossible for him to find us, you know we have cleaned up all the hands and tails." "Is everything going to be fine if the head and tail are cleaned up? Some things, once done, will definitely leave traces. Although the other party doesn''t know our existence yet, can you guarantee that the other party will never know our existence? " Hearing this, Raymond Eddie didn''t know how to answer for a moment. Now I can only hope that what happened this time is really just a coincidence. What they don''t know is that all the conversations between them have been monitored clearly. What Brisso Eddie didn''t expect was that there was an insider among the people who saw the arms deal this time. But he can''t be blamed for this. After all, when his younger brother Raymond Eddie arranged for the other party to carry out this arms transaction, he didn''t expect that there would be a day when he would be captured. And now Raymond Eddie was also devastated by the exposure of arms smuggling, and he didn''t think that Devis Barry was also one of the insiders of this matter. Raymond Eddie took into account the existence of Mizuno Xiaoling, and did not give a complete account of the whole process of the gun smuggling case, which led to them not anticipating their exposure in advance. (end of this chapter) Chapter 346: sequel Chapter 346 Sequel Just when everyone in the Eddie family thought that as long as Raymond Eddie was kept out of the limelight, this matter would pass quickly. The following news completely pushed Raymond Eddie to the forefront of public opinion. Raymond Eddie, who lives in the eldest brother''s house, is very clear that he is now the focus of major newspapers in Brazil, and today''s news must be related to him. After discussing with his elder brother all night last night, he was even more uncertain, worried that this accident was not an accident, I hope this time is really an accident. The contradictory heart made him unable to sleep at ease, so, waiting for the latest issue of the newspaper early in the morning, I hope to see all the news about myself disappear. When he took today''s newspaper from the strange eyes of the newsboy, he had a very bad premonition. But he also knew that even if he wanted to escape, he couldn''t solve the problem, he could only suppress the uneasiness in his heart. Close your eyes and pray for a while, calm your breathing completely, and then slowly open the newspaper. But the headlines on the front page of the newspaper directly made him stand still in place like a lightning strike. I saw a sensational title written in striking black bold font, Is it the loss of morality, or the distortion of human nature! " The slightly smaller font below reads "Raymond Eddie, Chief of the Public Security Department of the Brazilian Police Headquarters, and the story he had to tell his father''s lover". Below is a large picture composed of several small pictures. With just a glance, Raymond Eddie knew that the people in the picture were him and Mizuno Xiaoling. Among them are two people kissing at the door, and two people showing their faces at the same time. There are also scenes of two people kissing each other and taking off their clothes from the projection outside the window. . Raymond Eddie could tell from the photos that this was the scene when he went to Xiaoling Mizuno''s house the night before. His first thought was that the reporter had already followed him the night before, but he didn''t realize it. Now I''m in big trouble. Many people know Mizuno Xiaoling''s identity. Even if he doesn''t know, he can figure it out without reading the contents of the newspaper. The newspaper will definitely describe it in detail. The exposure of this incident will make it impossible for him to hold his head up in front of his relatives and colleagues. Now he can think of it himself, the chance of returning to the police headquarters is slim. No matter how strong his relationship in the Brazilian police system is, no one dares to risk the world''s dissatisfaction and let him return to the police headquarters to work. In this period when the news media was not well-developed in later generations, what kind of sensation such a report would cause, the current Raymond Eddy still can''t feel it. But his mind was blank at the moment, and he almost completely lost the ability to think independently. His mother''s shout came from behind him, waking him up from his trance. He didn''t dare to let others see the newspaper, so he rushed back to his room with the newspaper. Because of his father''s status, Raymond Eddie almost always lived in the flattery of the people around him, So he developed a domineering, defiant, self-willed character. Yesterdays news reports seemed to him to be nothing more than a trivial problem. After the limelight passed, what should he do or remain the same. Don''t worry too much about it. But today''s news made him completely panic. This matter is an absolute secret. He didn''t tell anyone, and no one in his family knew, because he knew very well that once he let his family know that he had done such a thing, he would be alienated from him. Even he doesn''t know what his big brother will think of him, if he gets his big brother to abandon him, he will be completely finished. Escapable will not solve the problem after all. Now everyone in the family knows that something big happened to him, and everyone is very concerned about him. Seeing him in such a distraught state made me even more worried. So, his elder brother, Brisso Eddie, quickly found him. "Raymond, open the door? What''s going on?" Hearing his elder brother''s door call, Raymond Eddie''s eyes flashed with panic. Can''t wait to find a tunnel to get in and hide. But obviously this can''t solve the problem. He knew very well in his heart that this matter could not be concealed. Arrogant people tend to be very proud, and Raymond Eddy fits into that category. He didn''t want his worst side to be seen by his family, so his first reaction was not to confess to his elder brother and his family. Instead, escape from the house and avoid being asked this embarrassing question by family members. What''s more embarrassing is that he doesn''t know how to face his own mother. Everyone knew that their father had such a lover, but they all concealed it from their mother. Now his father has passed away, but the news was revealed by the media. What was even more embarrassing was that his youngest son also accepted his father''s widow. The exposure of this incident will shame the entire Eddie family. It may also have a certain impact on his elder brother''s future. The whole Eddie family will be finished by then. And the source of all this is because of this report! Thinking of Raymond Eddie here, his eyes were flushed with anger. Looking at the crumpled newspaper in his hand, a crazy plan came to his mind. Think and do it. He turned his head and said to the elder brother outside the door in a calm tone as much as possible: "It''s okay, brother, I''ll come out after changing clothes." After speaking, start changing clothes. For some reason, he didn''t change into casual clothes. Instead, he put on a straight police uniform and carefully arranged his clothes in front of the mirror. He flattened the newspaper that had been crumpled up by himself, folded it carefully, and finally put the cart in a small bag and put it in his trouser pocket. Rubbing his face vigorously with both hands, he refreshed his haggard face after not sleeping all night. Standing at the door, took a few deep breaths to calm down completely. Just opened the door with a calm face, and saw his mother, elder brother and his family looking at him worriedly outside. Raymond Eddie smiled freely at the crowd and said: "What are you doing all around me? I''m fine, isn''t it just smuggling arms? What else can the police do to me? Don''t forget, the entire Brazilian police department has our own people. You go to breakfast first, I''m going to find Uncle Thomas, I thought of a solution, and I need to discuss it with him. " As the eldest brother, Brisso Eddie saw his abnormality at a glance, but he glanced at the mother and wife beside him, and he knew that some things were not suitable to speak directly. In addition, he didn''t think that members of his Eddie family, participating in an arms smuggling, would bring much problem to the family. So he patted Raymond Eddy on the shoulder and said: "It''s fine! I also said that yesterday I said that I was going to take a long vacation, why did I put on the police uniform again today! What solution did you think of? " While talking, he walked downstairs with Raymond Eddie. It''s just that he, who was following behind, didn''t notice, but the other party''s face was a little ugly, and the corners of his eyes twitched unconsciously. Briso Eddie, who had just walked down the stairs, suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Uh! By the way, didn''t you go to the newspaper? What did the newspaper say today? Take it out and let me see! " Raymond Eddie knew that he couldn''t delay any longer, so he rolled his eyes and said: "When I just changed my clothes, I should have thrown them on the bed. Come forward and get it later! I was in a hurry, so I went out first. " After speaking, he pushed the door and walked out without looking back. Brisso Eddie, who was walking behind, always felt that his brother today was a bit special. made him feel a little strange. I didn''t find anything unusual for a while, but I was just a little curious, did today''s news say some good news, which made Raymond Eddie suddenly find a solution to the problem. He has a different personality from his younger brother. He is not a reckless person. He likes to do everything, and he makes plans before acting. No matter what happens, you must first analyze it carefully. Based on his understanding of Raymond Eddie, he was a little panicked yesterday, but today he suddenly seems to have regained his confidence. There must be a turning point in the matter. Seeing Raymond Eddie go out and get into the car, he drove away without looking back. He didn''t even glance at the whole process, he was waiting for his mother and himself to bid farewell to him at the door. But he was stunned for a moment, it shouldn''t be, although the younger brother is domineering. However, he still loves his mother and his elder brother very much. So, every time I leave home, I will take the initiative to say goodbye to my mother and myself, but how could I be so rude today? Soon he realized that something was wrong, and there was something unusual about my younger brother today. Before he had time to continue thinking, he turned around and ran up to the second floor, pushing away Raymond Eddie''s room. Where can I find the newspaper that Raymond Eddy is talking about. A bad premonition floated in his mind. It seems that there must be something wrong with today''s newspaper, although he can''t be sure what his brother wants to do now. However, as long as you read today''s newspaper, all your doubts will be solved. Thinking of this, he ran down the stairs quickly, picked up his coat, and told his mother, wife and children: "Eat breakfast first, don''t wait for me, I have work to do. " By the time his mother, wife and children turned back, he had already rushed out the door. He didnt drive, because there was a newsstand not far from his home, and it only took less than 100 meters to buy a newspaper. It doesn''t even take a minute to run there. When he came to the newsstand, he saw the most prominent newspaper on the newsstand at a glance. In front of the newsstand, several people were discussing with newspapers. He has absolutely nothing on his mind to care about what everyone is discussing. All attention has been attracted by the sensational headline and the content of the photo. The boss stared at him with an unbelievable look. Pull out the newspaper and check it, the more you read the content of the newspaper, the uglier your face becomes. The owner of the newsstand saw that he hadnt paid, so he took out the newspaper to check it, and said dissatisfiedly: "Hey sir, I know today''s news, it''s great! However, you have to pay to read the newspaper! You need to give the money first, and then read the newspaper, understand? " But Brisso Eddie ignored it, or didn''t pay attention to what the boss was saying at all. He knew the woman mentioned in the newspaper. From the photos, it can be seen that his younger brother was indeed having **** with his father''s lover. After all, there are pictures and the truth, the content may be fabricated, but the photos cannot be faked. This is an era before P-pictures, and photos have not yet become photo-deception. Moreover, the content described in the article is well-founded. As a member of his own family, he just glanced at it and was sure that the content reported in the newspaper was true. It is precisely because he knows the content is true that it is even more difficult for him to accept it. He could never have imagined that his own brother could do such a kind and virtuous thing. At this moment, he still doesn''t understand why his younger brother behaved like this early this morning. After reading the entire report, Brisso Eddie felt a chill in his heart. The content of the text is not much, It mainly introduces the identities and backgrounds of the two people in the picture, emphasizing that the male protagonist is the head of the police headquarters who smuggled arms reported yesterday. And described in detail how the reporter discovered the special relationship between the two. According to reports, it was also an accident to discover this news. After the reporter learned that Raymond Eddie was involved in the arms smuggling case. wanted to interview him, but when he arrived at the police headquarters, he happened to meet him leaving get off work early. The reporter followed the other party all the way to a small villa on the outskirts of Brazil and took these photos. Then, after investigation by the reporter, it was discovered that the woman was a Japanese woman named Mizuno Xiaoling, and more importantly, the identity of the other party should be the lover of Raymond Eddie''s father. is his little mother, but the two of them are together, doing such a careless thing, it shatters the three views of the reporter. Reporters raised serious questions about the character of Raymond Eddy, as well as the character of his father, Credo Eddy. And then questioned the morality of the entire Eddie family. And raised questions, why a Japanese woman, when the Brazilian government explicitly deported all Japanese in the country. It is also possible to live in the capital of Brazil in a stately manner. Is it because the Eddie family can cover the sky with one hand in the police system, disregard the law, and do whatever they want. At the same time, I feel disgusted that the chief of the Public Security Department of the Brazilian Police Headquarters is a rotten person who enforces the law and breaks the law with such low character. Further questioned the quality of the police in the entire Brazilian police system. Briso Eddie, who had read the entire report, turned blue and red. I don''t know how I should face this matter. It is foreseeable that with the fermentation of this report, their entire Eddie family will become a stinky pile of stinky shit. His younger brother, Raymond Eddie, has completely lost the chance to enter the police system again. Because, he has shamed the entire Brazilian police system. Even the opportunity to work in other government departments in Brazil is gone. No matter where you go, you will be pointed at. What''s more frightening is that he, the Secretary General of the Labor Party, may be greatly affected. And his mother will be hit harder. (end of this chapter) Chapter 347: impulse Chapter 347 Impulse Since reading this report, Brisso Eddie has become a little dazed, almost unable to stand still. He dared not go home, fearing that his mother would find out about it. Now what he wants to know is where Raymond Eddy has gone, and his talk of meeting Thomas Sissy is obviously an excuse. The reason for leaving home was obviously that he was afraid to face his family. So where does he go? It''s not that he wants to save his younger brother, he just wants to find him out and beat him up right now. I want to ask him carefully, there are so many women in the world that he doesn''t look for, why he looks for his little mother. At this time, it is impossible for him to return to his home, nor is it possible to go to the police headquarters. It is even more impossible to go to the house of the woman in the newspaper. In this era without mobile phones, it is too difficult to find a person. After thinking for a long time, he couldn''t think of where the other party would go. At this time, Raymond Eddy had already driven to the Brazil Times headquarters in Rio de Janeiro. Looking at the towering buildings in front of him, Raymond Eddie''s eyes flashed a cold light. After observing the door for a while, as if he had made up his mind, he pulled out the pistol at his waist. Withdraw the magazine, check the bullet again, and insert it back. Pulled the sleeve to confirm that the firearm is normal. Holding it directly in his hand, he walked towards the Brazil Times office building. The guard at the door saw a man in police uniform walking over, so he didn''t raise his vigilance. But still asked like a routine inspection: "Mr. Police Officer, who are you looking for!" Raymond Eddie looked at the two guards at the door, but saw that they were not carrying weapons. It''s just bare hands, and there''s not much defense against him. also casually replied: "I''m looking for your boss?" The guard shook his head and replied directly: "Sorry officer, our boss didn''t come to work today. If you want to see him, you need to make an appointment. " "Then I''ll find your general manager." Raymond Eddie felt very irritable at this time, and a fire was burning in his heart. He seemed very impatient with the cross-examination of the two guards, so he answered unceremoniously. At this time, another guard noticed the pistol in Raymond Eddie''s hand. Calmly stepped back a few steps, came to the guard room, and winked at the two people inside. When the two inside saw his eyes, they immediately became alert. raised the weapon in the guard room. The guard who was questioning was facing Raymond Eddie, and because of the angle, he didn''t see the pistol in the opponent''s hand. continued to ask: "Excuse me, do you have an appointment?" Raymond Eddie didn''t have that much patience to entangle with the guards. Out of the corner of his eyes, he noticed the movement of another guard. He decided not to repeat himself anymore, and directly raised his gun to the forehead of the guard who was interrogating, and shouted loudly: "Stop **** talking, get out of the way, or I''ll shoot you straight away." The guard obviously didn''t expect that the policeman would turn into a gangster in seconds, and he was instantly calmed down. Two guards in the guard room had already come out with their guns in hand, aiming their guns at Raymond Eddie. shouted in his mouth: "This is the office of Brazil Times, Mr. Police, if you want to go in, please make an appointment through normal channels, or show relevant certificates. Otherwise, we will treat you as trespassing. " The unarmed guard outside the door took the opportunity to sneak into the guard room and started making calls. Since Fang Lang was killed in Sao Paulo last time, the company''s security department has been established and handed over to the investigation department for training. Although his military contracting company is still in its infancy, the various subsidiaries of the group are no longer defenseless. What''s more, before this retaliatory action started, Fang Lang was worried about such a situation, and had already prepared an emergency plan. The guard room called the security department, and the security department directly sent people out to support, and at the same time reported to the general manager and called the police. As for whether the alarm is useful or not, it is hard to say, but this is a necessary normal procedure. After receiving the call, Fang Tao, the general manager, saw from the office upstairs that there was only one policeman downstairs, and smiled disdainfully. Will we stop reporting just because you came in alone? Has this guy not figured out the situation yet? Still, he is so innocent and cute. "Keep restraint, we can''t shoot first, stabilize each other first, I''ll let people go down to deal with it." After receiving the instructions, the Minister of Security nodded and said yes, hung up the phone, and rushed to the scene directly. After Fang Tao hung up the phone, he directly called the editorial department. "There is big news at the door, bring a camera and record the whole process for me." The voice on the phone was first stunned, then overjoyed. "Yes, Mr. Fang." As for the person in charge of handling the matter at the door, of course Fang Tao couldn''t go there by himself. Call the public relations department and ask them to find someone to come down and communicate with the other party. As for whether the opponent dared to shoot, Fang Tao didn''t know. However, his brother made it very clear that if a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, he must not be in danger. Fang Tao personally feels that the opponent should not dare to shoot, after all, there is only one person on the opponent, but there are many people on his side. One gun against so many guns on your side, as long as the other party is not stupid, they will not do such stupid things. At this moment, Raymond Eddie obviously did not expect that he was stopped outside without even entering the gate. Surrounded by a group of security guards, at this moment he felt extremely humiliated, Without thinking about it, he directly pulled the security guard who was pointed at by him with a gun, let the other party stand in front of him, pointed the gun at his temple, and shouted at the security guards who surrounded him: "Do you want to rebel? See clearly, I am a policeman. Everyone get out of the way, or I will arrest you all. " The Minister of Security of Brazil Times is the old man of the military command operation group specially arranged by Zhong Ze. Just as he rushed out of the gate, he recognized who the person in front of him was with just one glance. Recalling the information from the investigation department, and the news published by the Brazilian Times in the past two days, he immediately understood the purpose of this guy''s coming. It seems that this is a desperate attempt to jump over the wall! He knew very well that Raymond Eddie was the one who planned to attack his boss behind the scenes, so he would not have any sympathy for him. If he met the opponent in another situation, he would shoot and kill the opponent without hesitation. Today is different from the past, and now Raymond Eddie has almost become a street rat. Killing him at this time would be cheap for him. So, he said without hesitation: "Mr. Raymond Eddy, as far as I know, you should be under the suspension inspection period now! Are you sure, you have the right to arrest us? " As soon as these words were uttered, the security guards who were still a little anxious around were shocked. Looking carefully at the other party''s appearance, it was the unreasonable Raymond Eddie reported in the news these two days. ? Several security guards even whispered: "No wonder it looks familiar! Isn''t this the director of the public security department who is not as good as a beast? " "I didn''t expect him to have the face to come to us and make trouble." "That''s right, dare to do it but not to be it!" "It looks like a dog, but I didn''t expect it to be a pig and a dog." "Hey! Isn''t it just a good father? Otherwise, how could he become a high-ranking police officer at such a young age." Two people pointed their guns at each other, and at the same time spat **** the ground. The people discussing around him didn''t have any intention of avoiding him. Everyone pointed their guns at him while discussing directly in front of him. This made Raymond Eddie tremble with anger, and he shot directly at the sky. The sound of "bang" stabbed a hornet''s nest, and the security guards around him nervously pointed their guns at him, and opened the insurance one after another. "You all **** shut up for me, get out of the way, I''m going to see your general manager." After finishing speaking, he pushed the hostage in his hand and rushed into the building without hesitation. At this time, several reporters rushed out of the office building, and one of them was carrying a camera on his shoulders, running over and shooting at this side. Raymond Eddie''s aversion to reporters has reached the point where he can''t add more, and he saw a group of reporters rushing towards him. Without even thinking about it, he just raised his gun and shot. The security guard held in his arms hadn''t reacted when he fired his gun at the sky. But this time, he reacted the first time the opponent''s gun left his forehead, stretched out his hands, and raised his hands holding the gun desperately upwards. This shot flew directly. Raymond Eddie apparently did not expect that the hostages in his hands dared to resist. After being hit by him, he wanted to withdraw the hand raised by him, but one of his hands could not be as strong as the two hands of the security guard. At this time, he either chooses to release the left hand that strangles the opponent''s neck, and regains the gun with both hands. Or strangle the opponent''s neck hard, let the opponent suffocate, and then let go. If the two are alone on one side, the outcome between the two may be difficult to distinguish for a while. But now the two are surrounded by a group of security guards. At the moment of the gunshot, the surrounding security guards saw the opponent''s hand holding the gun being pushed into the sky. Without hesitation, he rushed forward, grabbing guns and arresting people. Before Raymond Eddie could react, he was already firmly controlled by a group of people. Can no longer break free. And everything that happened here was completely recorded by the camera. At this time, Raymond Eddie was about to cry. Ever since he saw today''s newspaper, he knew he was doomed. At least morally cast a stain that can never be touched. At that time, the blood was high, and the first reaction was to find the newspaper and destroy the reporter and the people who published the news humanely. This is the best way he can think of at this time. After all, when the problem cannot be solved, solving the person who created the problem is indeed the most effective and practical method. But it is impossible for him to summon helpers at this time, because he really doesn''t know how to face the people around him. So, I can only go directly to the Brazil Times office building alone. I want to rush in and kill. It''s a pity that he hasn''t experienced any professional training after all, and he directly ascended to a high position relying on the shadow of his father''s generation. There is no experience in any front-line work at all, and he has never even shot and killed himself. He raised his gun without thinking and went up, and was spotted by the vigilant security guards at the door. Then he was directly controlled without even hurting anyone. When the police in Rio de Janeiro arrived, they saw that the gate of the Brazil Times had been surrounded. Raymond Eddie, who was wearing a police uniform, was **** and thrown at the door of the Brazil Times, and the people around him were talking about him. From time to time, someone would spit on him. Raymond Eddie, however, was unable to make a sound because his mouth was blocked, so he could only glared at the people around him, His face flushed red. The police leading the team knew that the other party was a high-ranking official when they saw the military rank on the other party''s police uniform, and they wanted to step forward to stop it immediately. But when he saw the other party''s appearance, he hesitated again. Because he recognized who the other party was with just one glance. If it was two days ago, he saw that someone dared to treat the officer in front of him like this, he would have stepped forward and pointed a gun at the other person''s head, and shot him dead. Fortunately, in front of this big shot, I can check my presence and see if I can attract the attention of the other person. But now, only disgust and disdain remained in his eyes. No one can say more about arms smuggling alone? After all, there is no conclusion within the police department. But today''s news completely overturned everyone''s three views, making everyone feel ashamed. When I went out today, the people in Brazil looked at them guys in police uniforms with strange eyes. If this was normal, who would dare to look at them like this, they would have stepped forward to check and make the other party suffer. But today he himself is a little bit embarrassed. And all this is thanks to the guy in front of him. After thinking about it, he still stepped forward to help him up. Because the other party is wearing a police uniform now. Lying on the ground in such a state of embarrassment really damages the image of the police. Originally, he wanted to tear off the rag from the other party''s mouth so that the other party could speak normally. But after glancing at the other person''s expression, he had no choice but to give up the idea, because he was worried that the other party would say some inappropriate words. The people around saw the police coming, but they didn''t leave. Instead, they watched more vigorously, and more people surrounded them. The police leading the team saw this situation, and said directly to the police officers who brought them: "Send Mr. Director back to the police station first, let''s find out what exactly happened." The policemen obviously didnt want to be surrounded by people, so they stepped forward to help Raymond Eddie up, took him into the police car and sent him back to the police station. The police officer who led the team came to the guard room, asked about the specific situation at that time, and took notes on everyone. The director of the public relations department sent by Fang Tao to negotiate with Raymond Eddie failed to talk to Raymond Eddie. But he met the police who came after him. After learning about what had happened, the head of the public relations department had a very tough attitude and called in a colleague from the company''s legal department. The scene made a solemn representation to the police handling the case. And inform the other party that they will not accept the settlement, if they find the Rio de Janeiro police station and dare to cover up criminals. will definitely sue the other party and report this matter through the news media. After learning about the incident, the police officer who handled the case also realized that things were a bit troublesome. Senior police officers armed with weapons broke into the office building of the news media and shot at the office building. And the news media still has the video of the incident. In this case, the police officer handling the case knew that this matter was beyond his ability to handle. So, after just making some notes, I left in a hurry. (end of this chapter) Chapter 348: new gun Chapter 348 New Gun The incident caused an uproar in Rio de Janeiro. Outside the police station responsible for arresting Raymond Eddie, the reporter was surrounded by three layers of reporters. The reporters are not simply, to cover today''s attack in Brazil Times. More I want to interview Raymond Eddie, I want to know how he got together with his little mother. Some tabloid reporters have compiled a whole set of storylines based on the pictures in the Brazilian Times, and now they are waiting for Mr. Raymond Eddy to confirm! So when the tabloid reporters knew that Raymond Eddie had been arrested in this police station, they surrounded the police station tightly. This matter also made the police station a little difficult to handle. How could this be a criminal who was arrested and returned! It is clearly a hot potato. The chief of this police station is also a member of the police club. When he knew that Raymond Eddie had been captured by his men, he immediately wanted to release him directly. But the reporter who arrived immediately dispelled his idea, although everyone was his own. But it is obviously not suitable at this time, directly and blatantly bending the law for personal gain. The other party can only be allowed to move within the police station. I thought this guy would die because of today''s news, find a place to hide quietly, so as not to face the strange eyes of the police officers in the police station. I dont know if the humiliation received at the gate of the Brazil Times overshadowed the humiliation brought about by the news content. Or he returned to his familiar environment, which gave him some illusions. It may also be that I am nervous that I am confined to the police station and will be found by my family. Raymond Eddie actually started to make a scene in the police station, desperately wanting to leave the police station. This made the chief of police a little overwhelmed, and he had to ask the chief of police, Thomas Cisse, for help. After Thomas Cisse knew what Raymond had done today, he was silent for a long while before sighing heavily: "Find a detention room and lock him up, waiting for processing." "Yes, sir!" The chief of police, who received a clear order, invited Raymond Eddie back to the detention room according to the order. Raymond Eddie, who was locked up, was still making noise in the detention room. It wasn''t until Brisso Eddie arrived after hearing the news that the detention room fell into a long silence. No one knew what the two brothers said in the detention room, only that when Briso Eddie came out, his fist was stained with a trace of blood. The whole person seems to have lost his former spirit. At this time, Fang Lang, who was far away in Natal, ushered in a special guest. "Mr. Ludwig, is this the rifle you designed?" Fang Lang saw a rifle lying in the gun box that looked like it already had some, the prototype of a modern assault rifle. He directly reached out and picked it up, feeling that the weight of the gun body was still a bit too heavy. The length of the gun is still very long. However, from the body of the gun, the shadow of the rifle of later generations can already be seen. He knew in his heart that he couldn''t push back the growth and forcefully demand that firearms be upgraded to the same advanced level as later generations. This requires a long growth process, during which you can cultivate a large number of excellent firearm design talents for yourself. And these are exactly what an advanced weapons company really needs. The success of a weapon is not success. Only when a weapon company has countless excellent scientific research talents and a solid scientific research foundation, can it be considered a real success. "Yes, boss, This is the rifle I showed you the blueprints for. Adopt roller lock action structure. The whole gun is 1025mm long, the barrel is 450mm long, and the caliber is 7.62mm. Using the 7.62mm*63mm rifle ammunition of the m1 Garand rifle, which is currently the most in Brazil, The effective range is 700 meters, and the magazine capacity is 20~30 rounds. You can freely choose SLR or burst mode. If bursts are used, the maximum rate of fire is 600 rounds per minute. The gun weighs 5.1kg. " Fang Lang in his previous life was just a puppet army fan, with no experience in shooting. But Fang Lang in this life is a professional soldier, and he heard the data reported by Ludwig Folger. He knew that there was still some gap between this rifle and the G3 rifle of later generations. Because he used the Springfield 0.30-06 rifle bullet, which is the Garand rifle 7.62mm*63mm rifle bullet, which is a powerful bullet. Of course there is no problem in using it on a rifle. But when used on an assault rifle, it is obviously too powerful, which will cause the gun to have too much recoil and the muzzle to jump. When using burst mode, it will be difficult to ensure high precision. However, the opponent obviously made certain improvements based on the actual situation in Brazil. This made Fang Lang very satisfied. Picking up the rifle and putting it on his shoulder, feeling it, he frowned slightly and said: "This gun is not light!" Ludwig Folger said slightly nervously: "Boss, this gun uses a lot of stamping parts, and the weight of the gun body has been reduced to the maximum." Fang Lang is not dissatisfied with this gun, he knows very well that this is a classic gun model that has passed the test of later history. Now what he said was his first impression of the current rifle. After all, most of his soldiers now use the M1 Garand rifle, which has an empty weight of only 4.37kg. Compared with the rifle in hand now, it is indeed lighter. Dont underestimate the weight, because the rate of fire of this rifle is much faster than that of the M1 Garand. This means that soldiers have to carry more bullets. In addition, the gun itself is heavier than the M1 Garand, which will greatly increase the soldier''s load. Fang Lang didn''t know the specific weight of the G3 rifle of later generations, but he was sure that it was definitely not as heavy as the gun in his hand now. However, he believes that with the advancement of material science in later generations, the weight of this gun will definitely decrease accordingly. Seeing that Ludwig Folger was a little nervous, Fang Lang smiled and patted him on the shoulder and said: "Don''t worry, I believe you are a professional, although the gun feels a bit heavy now, But that leaves us with some wiggle room, doesn''t it? Any excellent weapon is not created overnight, we have to let time polish it slowly. Now let''s try the gun first, shall we? " Seeing Fang Lang''s smile, Ludwig Folger relaxed a little, and he looked very excited when he heard that the boss was going to test the gun. He has absolute confidence, as long as the boss has shot live ammunition, he will definitely fall in love with this gun. So he nodded without hesitation and said: "Of course, boss, The purpose of coming here today is to let you try the gun. I believe this rifle will amaze you! " Fang Lang nodded with a smile, and walked out of the office with the rifle in his hand. The officers outside the door were a little surprised to see the general holding a new gun in his hand, followed by a group of people. But after all, it is an army, and there will not be so many spectators. Walking out, Fang Lang asked Ludwig Folger beside him curiously: "Based on our current industrial base in Brazil, is it difficult to mass-produce this gun?" The other party nodded with a relaxed smile and said: "Of course, boss. Isnt this what I tried out in Brazil? In order to reduce weight, when I designed this rifle, I used a lot of stamping parts and less machined parts. Production is not difficult. Not long ago, we customized several machine tools through the group''s internal machine tool factory, which can fully meet the production needs of this rifle. Now we are waiting for the end of the test, and after the formal qualitative, we can start the formal production. Of course, the most important thing is that we need to find a suitable buyer. " Ludwig Folger is obviously very confident in the weapon he designed, but he is a little worried that he will not be able to find a suitable buyer for such an excellent weapon. After all, the world war has just ended, and the mainstream of the world is peace. At this time, there is a brand new rifle interview, and the situation may be a bit embarrassing. After listening to Ludwig Folger''s words, Fang Lang smiled, and said directly: "Don''t worry, don''t forget what I do. If this rifle is really good enough, I can change all my marines first. Then recommend it to the Ministry of Defense and win an equipment order for the Brazilian army. Finally, you can use the channels of the Shata company to recommend to the US government. Even if we cannot get the weapons purchase order from the US military, we will definitely be able to enter the US civilian market. Of course, the European market is also our important target. " Fang Lang''s words reassured Ludwig Folger a lot. As long as the boss is satisfied, at least the change of the troops under the boss''s command is guaranteed. Several people chatted and laughed all the way to the training range. At the moment, there are soldiers of the Marine Corps conducting shooting training in the range. Seeing Fang Lang''s arrival, everyone stood at attention and saluted. Fang Lang looked around, and there were many American instructors around who were looking here curiously. Turned his head to Ludwig Folger and said: "Have all the patents for firearms been applied for? There are many American instructors I hired here. If we directly experiment, will the performance of this weapon be exposed. " Ludwig Folger smiled and said: "Don''t worry, the boss, our technical drawings have already applied for technical patents. However, the patent on the roller lock bolt is now in the hands of Mauser, If we want to mass-produce, we may need to obtain authorization from them. " Fang Lang understood that although this roller lock shooting was invented by Ludwig Folger, But the ownership of the patent belongs to Mauser, who made Ludwig Folger an employee of Mauser at that time! Just like the current rifle, although it was also designed by him, the patent ownership also belongs to the light weapons company founded by Fang Lang. If other countries want to produce, they must obtain authorization from their companies. Otherwise, the other party can go bankrupt in a lawsuit. Some people may think that now that Mauser has been split by the Allies, they don''t care whether they will infringe on the other party''s patents. This kind of thinking is wrong. It is precisely because Germany was defeated that this patent will take effect. Because everyone belongs to the same set of values, they must play according to the rules of the game. If the two sides are in a hostile relationship during the war, and they have mastered this technology, they can of course put it into large-scale production. But now that the war is over, it''s commercial, The other party has the right to charge patent fees like himself, or sue himself for infringement. Of course, this standard does not apply in the current CPSU system. Hearing Ludwig Folger''s words, Fang Lang smiled, and said indifferently: "This is a small problem, I think this time, It shouldn''t be difficult for us to negotiate technology licensing with Mauser. " The war has just ended, the whole of Germany is waiting to be liquidated, and people are living in dire straits. This is the best time to obtain technology authorization. At this moment, what Fang Lang wants to obtain in his heart is not only the patent authorization for the use of the roller locking structure. The production authorization of excellent weapons like MG42 is also what Fang Lang needs. Of course, this time he will not go out in person again, he already has a complete professional team under him. Just say what you want, and leave the rest to them. "The boss is right, Mauser should be very happy to authorize you at this time. And, the price should not be very high. " Fang Lang nodded in satisfaction, laughed loudly and said: "It''s okay, I will notify the group company tomorrow and send a delegation to the Mauser factory in Germany to negotiate technology authorization. However, I believe that with your excellent talents. Our company will soon have many patents of our own, At that time, we dont have to worry about what products we produce will be stuck by other peoples patents. " I don''t know why, but the technicians around me felt very comfortable after hearing Fang Lang''s words. There is a feeling that you must not live up to the boss''s expectations. Ludwig Folger also nodded repeatedly. Since there is no need to worry about technology leakage, Fang Lang stopped talking, and said directly to the instructor who was training: "Training is suspended, give everyone a little time to rest. Let''s borrow the shooting range and do a weapon test, After the test is over, the training continues. " Since the supreme officer spoke, the instructors below certainly did not dare to refuse, and quickly stood at attention to accept the order, and began to recall the soldiers who were training. After the shooting training ground was cleared, Fang Lang brought a group of technicians to the shooting position. Glancing at the shooting position 100 meters away, Fang Lang frowned. It turned out that fixed target positions of 100 meters, 150 meters, 200 meters, and 250 meters were used now. That is to set up a fixed target every 50 meters for shooting training. Not even a moving target, this is not acceptable, the enemy on the battlefield will not stand still, waiting for you to shoot. Could it be the Yankees who hid it! However, it doesn''t matter, after the Yankees leave, just reset it yourself. At that time, I will even create a tactical shooting field, so that the tactical capabilities of my troops will be unrivaled in the world. After retiring, he directly joined his own military contracting company and continued to work for himself. It feels comfortable to think about it. Considering that it was just a test firing, Fang Lang did not use any special tactical shooting methods. Its just the simplest way to pick up the rifle, insert the magazine, pull the bolt, and open the safety. Feet forward and backward, knees slightly bent, body slightly forward. Three o''clock and one line, aimed at the nearest 100-meter target, and there was a "bang". A shot hit the target directly, but Fang Lang could clearly feel that, as he expected, The gun jumps seriously, and its recoil is comparable to that of the M1 Garand. After getting the first shot, Fang Lang felt the temper of the gun, and then he continued to shoot two single shots without slowing down. In addition to the technicians around Fang Lang, the soldiers who were waiting for shooting training not far away were also watching the movement here. Seeing their general holding a rifle they had never seen before, shooting unhurriedly, they thought this rifle looked like the M1 Garand they were equipped with now. I dont feel very concerned. (end of this chapter) Chapter 349: bullet Chapter 349 Bullets After shooting two shots in a row, Fang Lang finally found his feeling. He turned the gun body sideways and looked it over carefully, but he didn''t see anything unusual. He bent his knees again to hold the gun, and switched the firing mode to burst. Followed by "bang bang bang", three short bursts in a hurry. Feeling the beating range of the muzzle and the force with which he pulled the trigger, Fang Lang felt that the recoil of this gun seemed not unacceptable. After all, what I use now is only the most basic design posture. And when shooting with many special forces that he saw in the videos of his later generations, there is a shooting method called Mapugai shooting method, also known as TOB shooting method, which is to reduce the jumping range of the muzzle by pressing the thumb on the top of the handguard. shooting tactics. Judging from the current situation of gun testing, using this TOB shooting method can completely control the jumping range of the muzzle. But after all, it was a new gun, so he was not in a hurry. Fired several short bursts in a row, and Fang Lang exited the magazine after all the bullets in the magazine were emptied. Glancing at the target in the distance, Fang Lang can now see more clearly the 400-meter target. He can guarantee that all three short shots will hit the target. What does this mean? It means that the shooting accuracy of this rifle is very good. At least so far, Fang Lang is very satisfied with this trial rifle. What he didn''t know was that Ludwig Folger, the gun designer standing beside him, looked very surprised. It turned out that he only knew that his boss was a soldier, and it was normal to be familiar with weapons. But seeing Fang Lang now, he can easily control a weapon that has just been trial-produced, which is still beyond his expectations. After all, this short burst shooting method was something he never thought of before. He knows that many excellent machine gunners are accustomed to using this short burst design method, but now it seems that his boss has already figured out the best shooting method for this weapon just as soon as he got started. The soldiers and instructors who were resting not far away looked at Fang Lang indifferently, and were shooting one shot at a time in an uncommon shooting posture. After firing three single shots, this weapon, which is obviously a rifle rather than a submachine gun, can easily achieve the effect of three short bursts. Everyone was stunned, some people still don''t quite understand what this weapon is for. It seems to have duplicated the function of the submachine gun! But there are also many sensible people present, after all, many fighters here have participated in the European war. Among them, many of the American instructors are outstanding in the war. Although it is still just a test, and they don''t know the specific performance of this weapon, they can already feel that this weapon is different from the weapons they have come into contact with before. Fang Lang didn''t pay attention to the opinions of the people around him, but was feeling the performance of this rifle with his heart. Passing the old magazine to the person behind him, he took out a new magazine full of bullets, and snapped it into place. Pulled the bolt again, and directly pulled the trigger at a target 100 meters away. Just listen to "da da da" Continuous gunshots, non-stop ringing. Fang Lang didn''t desperately lower the muzzle of the gun, but with a little effort, he controlled the beating range of the muzzle to a small range. After firing a magazine with one shuttle, Fang Lang had a general understanding of the weapon in his opponent''s hand. Out of the magazine again, he threw the gun to his adjutant Qi Qingshan. "Gyeongsan, follow the shooting method I just did and try the gun. Single shot first, then short bursts, and finally bursts. See if you can hold the muzzle of the gun. Remind you, in the burst mode, the muzzle bounce will be relatively large, and the recoil is similar to that of the M1 Garand. Be careful. " This adjutant, Qi Qingshan, is also a veteran who participated in the European War. He tried firing this new rifle, and the problem was not too big. Standing behind him all the time, seeing Fang Lang shooting, Qi Qingshan was a little ready to move. After all, man! How many people don''t like guns? What''s more, this is an experimental firearm that has just been successfully trial-produced! So, Qi Qingshan took it without hesitation, and said directly without hesitation: "Yes, boss, let me try." Fang Lang stood beside Ludwig Folger, watching Qi Qingshan test the gun. There is no problem with single shot. Short burst shooting is not a big problem, but it has obviously lost its aim when firing bursts. With two magazines, Fang Lang also roughly understood the situation of this gun. Turning his head to Ludwig Folger beside him, he said: " is a good gun, however, there are two problems. First of all, the bullet is wrongly selected, and the 7.62mm*63mm rifle bullet should not be used. The power of this full-power bullet is too large, resulting in excessive recoil and muzzle bounce, Especially in burst mode, it is difficult to control the aim. So, I suggest you to choose the middle power bomb. Now we do not have our own bullet production line in Brazil, nor do we have a mandatory uniform standard for bullets. I hope you can design an intermediate power bomb, and you can test the specific one that is most suitable for you. I think there is no problem with using 7.62mm caliber, and the lethality is enough. Second, as I said earlier, although you have tried your best to reduce the weight of the gun body. But I think the weight needs to be further reduced. After all, this rifle consumes a lot of ammunition. If this rifle is used, soldiers need to carry more ammunition. This will greatly increase the burden on the soldiers. In order to maintain combat effectiveness, it is necessary to continue to lose weight. Give you a suggestion, for some non-important parts, you can change to a new material. If there is a certain requirement for strength, it can be replaced with aluminum, and if there is no requirement for strength, it can be replaced with plastic. This will definitely reduce a lot of weight. " Ludwig Folger did not expect that the boss would discover so many problems after simply trying the gun once, and he would come up with solutions. As an excellent gun designer, although he has never heard of the concept of intermediate power bullets. But since it is said that the 7.62mm*63mm rifle ammunition is a full-power bullet, it is conceivable that the intermediate-power bullet must be a bullet that is less powerful than this full-power bullet. Doesnt the 7.9233mm short bullet used by the German STG44 rifle perfectly meet this standard? At the beginning of his design of this rifle, he considered using this short bullet directly, But, now in Brazil, he is very worried that the weapon he designed based on this bullet will not be popular. So I chose the most common ammunition for the Brazilian army. "Boss, the middle power bullet you said, Does it mean a bullet like the German 7.92*33mm short bullet? " Fang Lang doesn''t know how the later generations will divide the intermediate power bullets, but he has a basic concept, that is, the intermediate power bullets have a power between rifle bullets and pistol bullets. Hearing what Ludwig Folger said, his first reaction was that the length of this bullet seems to be a bit short, but his caliber is 7.92, which is larger than the 7.62 used by AK. The length is 6mm shorter than the AK''s 39mm, but the caliber is a bit thicker. After conversion, the charge is estimated to be similar to the AK''s 7.62*39mm. It must belong to the middle power bullet. But he didn''t want to be independent, let the Brazilian troops use a special bullet alone, he started a company, and the weapons he produced were ready to be sold all over the world. The NATO countries all over the world will use 7.6251mm NATO bullets in the future, and he does not want to make detours. Moreover, he wants to unify the bullets of rifles and machine guns in the future, which can reduce logistical pressure. The 7.92*33mm short bullet is obviously not suitable for machine guns, so from this point of view, this bullet was passed by Fang Lang. Although the NATO standard 7.6251mm NATO bullet was not developed until 1950 in the United States, isnt this an advantage as a reborn? Knowing that the entire NATO in the future will use this kind of bullet, why don''t I go ahead of the world and get it right in one step! So, he said without hesitation: "Ludwig, the bullet you mentioned is indeed an intermediate power bullet. But the bullets you mentioned are not powerful enough. What I want is to directly let the rifles and light machine guns of the troops use unified bullets. I need you to help me develop a 7.62*51mm intermediate power bullet, All of our rifles and light machine guns will use this cartridge in the future to reduce logistical pressure. " Upon hearing this, Ludwig Folger immediately understood what Fang Lang meant. It seems that a light machine gun will be developed based on this bullet in the future! Certainly no problems with Ludwig Folger, who invented the MG42 machine gun. He wished he had the opportunity to develop more and more advanced weapons, so as to reflect his value. However, researching bullets is not an easy task, and it is even more difficult to establish a complete production line of bullets. It seems that my task is very heavy! After nodding heavily, Ludwig said: "No problem, boss, we will organize manpower to develop the bullet you mentioned when we go back. But if you want to produce bullets on a large scale, it is not much less difficult than making firearms. Maybe we need to recruit more people. " Fang Lang is very clear that Ludwig Folger is telling the truth, don''t look at the bullet as if it is inconspicuous, in fact, it is far more difficult to produce him than to manufacture firearms. Looking at the later generations of Asan, they always say that they are the third largest military power in the world, and they have the ability to manufacture aircraft, tanks and aircraft carriers by themselves. But it hit a nail on a small bullet. Although it has a certain bullet manufacturing capacity now, it can''t produce high-precision bullets at all, and can only choose to import from abroad. And if Fang Lang wants to manufacture arms sales by himself in the future, he must have his own bullet production capacity. So, he nodded without hesitation and said: "No problem, what kind of people are needed, you feel free to recruit, I only have one request. It is necessary for our factory to have completely independent bullet production and development capabilities, understand? " Ludwig Folger nodded seriously when he heard Fang Lang''s words. In order for this light weapons manufacturing factory to gain a firm foothold in the global arms market, it must have a complete bullet production capacity. It seems that we have to go to Germany to gather wool. After all, Germany is the easiest place to obtain technology and personnel. Don''t think of a way from here, do you have to start researching from scratch? It takes a lot of time. (end of this chapter) Chapter 350: weapon configuration Chapter 350 Weapon configuration "Boss, it seems that you have already made a complete plan for our small arms factory. I don''t know if you can talk about it in detail. It is convenient for us to implement directly according to your ideas in the future, Avoid detours. " Ludwig Folger is a smart man. Now that he knows that Fang Lang has great expectations for this light weapons job, Naturally, you must first know what the boss is thinking. This is like the original military''s requirements and standards for weapon performance. Then, they are responsible for the same research and development. He must know the boss''s plan to know how to go in the future. Hearing what he said, Fang Lang was also taken aback. It turned out that he really didn''t think much about this issue. Just knowing that the rifle designed by the other party is an excellent rifle, this guy is an excellent gun designer, so he took this guy under his command without hesitation. However, I haven''t really thought about what kind of equipment this factory will mainly produce in the future. But as a later generation, he still knows that those weapons really stand the test of time. So, he thought and said: "Well! You let me think, First of all, we must have conducted in-depth research based on the rifle you designed. I just said that bullets need to be unified, so future general-purpose machine guns must also be built around this bullet. You have experience in designing MG42, I believe it should not be difficult for you to design a general-purpose machine gun based on it. " As he spoke, he glanced at the soldiers who were waiting for training, and found that some of them were using Thomson submachine guns. His eyes moved slightly and said: "In addition to rifles and machine guns, we also need submachine guns. Now we use the 11.43mm pistol bullet of the Thomson submachine gun, which has a large caliber. I think the Parabellum 9mm pistol bullet is very good. I want to develop our own submachine gun and pistol around this 9*19mm pistol bullet. The style of the submachine gun can miniaturize the rifle you are designing now, which should not be difficult. As for the pistol, I want you to refer to the Browning 1911 to design and manufacture a pistol that can choose single-shot or continuous-shot. It shouldn''t be too difficult! " Ludwig Folger found that Fang Lang seemed to prefer a small caliber, but the other party was the boss. Since the boss had already decided, he certainly would not raise any objections. Besides, none of these requirements were too difficult for him. What he didn''t know was that these requests made by Fang Lang were the mainstream in the future. Based on the current rifle, the miniaturized design is carried out. The submachine gun using Parabellum 9mm pistol ammunition will be the most famous MP5 submachine gun in the future. This is the submachine gun of choice for the world''s major special forces. Needless to say, if he can be favored by the world''s major special forces, you can know how good he is. And there are countless excellent pistols that use this kind of pistol ammunition, such as the famous Glock 18, HK P7, Beretta M92F and so on. Although Fang Lang only proposed to conduct research and development around two types of bombs, these two types of bombs have obviously passed the test of history. As early as 1902, the Parabellum 9mm pistol cartridge had been used in the Luger pistol. Now what they want to study is mainly the 7.62*51mm intermediate power bullets. Fang Lang believes that as long as these weapons are successfully developed according to his own plan. Then, my own small arms company, which is still unknown, will become a world arms giant in the future. Thinking about it makes people excited, maybe this company can replace the HK company in the future. "Boss, of course no problem. But if this is the case, the weapon will shrink compared to other weapons in terms of power and range! " Of course Fang Lang was prepared for this. After all, this is also the future trend, and the power of 7.62mm is not small. You should know that 5.56mm did not officially become the NATO standard caliber until 1970. Some people may ask, why not directly use the 5.56mm caliber? This is the mainstream of modern society! My family! The 5.56mm caliber was only designed in the United States in 1958, and now 7.62mm is the mainstream. Of course, doing business cannot be done in one step! No matter what, you have to make enough profit on the 7.62mm body before you start joining the 5.56mm camp! And Fang Lang knows that the armor-piercing ability of the 5.56mm bullet is insufficient, and the 7.62mm weapon still has a long way to go! "Haha, it''s okay, As long as our assault rifles can be guaranteed, an effective range of about 400 meters is enough. Beyond this distance, it is not the target of the assault rifle, After all, it is not so difficult to shoot the enemy directly with the naked eye if it exceeds 400 meters. Give it to the sniper rifle to shoot, or the light machine gun to suppress it. " Ludwig Folger knew that Fang Lang already had a complete direction in his mind, so he didn''t say much. Hearing Fang Lang mention the sniper rifle, Ludwig Folger looked at Fang Lang with a smile and said: "So shall we also design a professional sniper rifle?" Regarding the sniper rifle, Fang Lang is not worried. Because technically speaking, the design of a sniper rifle is not very difficult, but the difficulty lies in the processing accuracy. This processing accuracy not only refers to the processing accuracy of firearms, but more importantly, the processing accuracy of bullets. Of course, at the same time, you have to equip him with an equally excellent sniper scope, otherwise, the naked eye alone will definitely not be able to accomplish long-distance sniper killing. Fang Lang believes that Ludwig Folger, the excellent gun designers of the Mauser company, will definitely have no problem designing these weapons. "Well! After the previous firearms are successfully developed, it will not be too late for you to start developing sniper rifles. My plan for the sniper rifle is to use high-precision 7.62*51mm intermediate-power bullets and 12.7*99mm large-caliber bullets. This is enough to cover enemies beyond the range of the assault rifle. " Ludwig Folger couldn''t help but be taken aback, he can understand the use of high-precision 7.62*51mm intermediate power bullets. is to unify the caliber and reduce logistical pressure. But the large-caliber bullet of 12.7*99mm, as a bullet for a sniper rifle, greatly exceeded his expectations. This is obviously the bullet caliber of a heavy machine gun! Such bullets have a range of more than one thousand meters. It seems that the boss wants to make a sniper rifle that can directly kill the enemy from a thousand meters away. For such a rifle, whether it is the processing accuracy of the firearm or the accuracy of the bullets, it must reach a harsh level. If you want to achieve such accuracy, you can only use the rotary back-pull bolt, abandon the continuous shooting function of the rifle, and use semi-automatic or manual mode. Sniper rifles like this are more terrifying than the range. If the bullet hits a person, it is the kind that can shatter half of the body. This is really scary. After swallowing his saliva, Ludwig Folger said tentatively: "Is this caliber too big, it can be used as an anti-tank gun." After thinking for a while, he said: "Do you want to develop a heavy machine gun based on the 12.799mm large-caliber bullet?" Of course Fang Lang knows that this sniper rifle has a large caliber. After all, in later generations, this kind of sniper rifle is no longer simply called a sniper rifle, but an anti-material sniper rifle. That is, a rifle that can kill armored or bulletproof targets. In history, the sniper rifle of this caliber was in the mid-1980s, and the United States and the Soviet Union began to conduct research one after another. So, there is no need to worry, and if you want to study sniper rifles, you have to study advanced optical sights. The research and manufacture of optical instruments is still blank in Brazil. well! No way, Brazil''s basic industry is too backward. However, if you want to manufacture advanced sniper rifles, you must introduce the manufacture of optical instruments. Fang Lang couldn''t help but rubbed his head. It seemed that the Fangyuan Group was about to get involved in a new industry again, so Fang Lang was a little worried about blooming everywhere. But he knows that the optical instrument industry is actually a very promising industry. For example, making telescopes, microscopes, camera lenses, spectacle lenses, mobile phone lenses until modern society, and even photolithography machines used to make microchips are all inseparable from optical instruments. And Germany happens to have a very good optical instrument factory, that is the famous Carl Zeiss. Because of the war, in 1945, the American army occupied the Carl Zeiss Jena factory, expropriated patents, documents and specialized production equipment, and brought professional technicians to Heidenheim in the west. In 1946, the Soviet occupying forces dismantled all the production equipment of the Jena factory and brought scientists, engineers and professional technicians to the Soviet Union. This company has been completely split up. However, Fang Lang did not intend to give up. He believed that there must still be many professional technicians from Zeiss in Germany hiding. Otherwise, how could the Carl Zeiss company of later generations be able to recover quickly! For such a company, Fang Lang plans to adopt the same joint venture method as the automobile industry system, and directly find people from Carl Zeiss in Germany to cooperate to establish a branch in Brazil. I only need to own a certain amount of shares, and I also need the help of this company for the Brazilian electronics industry. Thinking of this, Fang Lang silently wrote down the matter. This time he is no longer going to do it himself. Now he has many German collaborators, and he just needs to let them pass a message to the people of Carl Zeiss for him. Just send a professional negotiating team to Germany. Fang Lang also smiled when Ludwig Folger said that the caliber was too large. "There is no need to worry about this large-caliber sniper rifle, we can take our time. I want to make such a large-caliber sniper rifle, which is mainly aimed at the enemy''s lightly armored targets. As for, you mentioned that you want to develop a heavy machine gun based on the 12.799mm large-caliber bullet. Its true, but I dont plan to continue to develop it myself, The M2 Browning heavy machine gun currently in service in the U.S. military is a very good heavy machine gun. So, I''m going to talk directly to the U.S. government about licensing production. " For heavy machine guns, Fang Lang actually has two goals in mind. First of all, it must be the M2 Browning heavy machine gun just mentioned, which uses 12.799mm large-caliber bullets. This is a heavy machine gun that has been in service for more than a hundred years and has not been eliminated by the times. It is no exaggeration to say that it is one of the best heavy machine guns. To this day, this heavy machine gun is still active in the major battlefields in which the United States participates. The place where you see it the longest is often the roof of the Hummer. The other one, of course, is Gatling, which everyone loves to play. Unfortunately, the technology of this era is still unable to reach the level of using laser superposition technology to shoot down drones in later generations. If you use a motor, you need to add a battery, which is really inconvenient. And the weight is too large, it is only suitable for use as a fixed weapon platform. So, I can only choose the M2 Browning heavy machine gun for the time being. As for discussing authorized production with the Americans, Fang Lang is not worried. Because, with the current relationship between Brazil and the United States, it is not difficult to obtain authorization. Not to mention the current relationship between the Fang family and the Morgan family, such trivial matters can be easily resolved. Hearing that Fang Lang was going to introduce the M2 Browning heavy machine gun, Ludwig Folger was obviously not convinced. But throughout World War II, Germany did not develop a large-caliber heavy machine gun. Whenever on the battlefield, after the Germans are suppressed by the large-caliber machine guns of the Allies, they will go straight to the guns. German ordinary infantry divisions will be equipped with 12 20mm Flak30/38 anti-aircraft guns. This flat-firing anti-aircraft artillery is so powerful that it can directly destroy the heavy machine gun positions of the Allies. Therefore, Germany does not have large-caliber heavy machine guns. "Boss, I think I have the ability to design a better heavy machine gun than the M2. If you can give me a chance, I will definitely not let you down. " These words made Fang Lang speechless for a while, good guy, this technical expert really has his own persistence! But after thinking about it, he can understand it. After all, he is a genius who can design a machine gun like MG42, so it is normal to have such a heart. For this kind of genius, Fang Lang certainly couldn''t dampen his enthusiasm. So, he smiled and said: "Ludwig, very good, I like your self-confidence, and I also believe in your ability. M2 heavy machine gun is good, but his rate of fire is actually not fast. And I know that there is a gun with a shooting speed that must be able to surpass him, I suggest that you can conduct research on the basis of this gun type. " As a gun designer, Fang Lang just opened his mouth, and Ludwig Folger immediately knew what type of gun Fang Lang was talking about. His MG42 fires very fast, but if it is changed to a large-caliber heavy machine gun, the problem of heat dissipation cannot be solved at all. After all, the current 7.92 mm caliber bullets need to be replaced constantly when using them. Not to mention the increase to 12.7mm. If it could be changed to 12.7 mm, it would have been changed a long time ago, and there is no need to wait until now. Gatling is completely different. Gatling fires bullets through several barrels at the same time. His heat will not be concentrated in one of the barrels, and he can also dissipate heat continuously during rotation. So this machine gun can achieve a higher rate of fire while maintaining the caliber. "Boss, are you talking about Gatling?" Fang Lang nodded with a smile and said: "That''s right, I believe that if the Gatling machine gun is used for improvement, the large-caliber machine gun will be able to maintain a high rate of fire while maintaining a large caliber. I want this machine gun, once it starts firing, to start a storm of metal. " In fact, Fang Lang already had a goal in his heart, and that was the GAU-19 Gatling machine gun successfully developed by the US military in 1983. That is, the six-barreled Gatling that you can often see in movies, hanging on the side of the Black Hawk helicopter. It also fires 12.7*99mm large-caliber bullets, with a maximum rate of fire of 1000-2000 rounds per minute. (end of this chapter) Chapter 351: change of plans Chapter 351 The plan has changed After hearing Fang Lang''s request, Ludwig Folger fell into thought for a while. He is very clear about the working principle of this weapon, but it is not easy to develop it. But such a challenging thing, of course he is willing to try it. So, he nodded without hesitation and said: "Okay, no problem, then I will complete our product line as soon as possible according to your plan. Strive for your army to use our own weapons and equipment as soon as possible. " Fang Lang laughed with satisfaction when he heard this, and said: "Okay, then I will wait for your good news." By the time the two of them were talking, Qi Qingshan had already fired two magazines. The technician from the factory is asking about his experience of using it. For Qi Qingshan, the firepower of this kind of rifle that can be fired in bursts is really too powerful. It made him a little excited to see Lie, and he wished to equip it immediately. As for the problems with this weapon, he really couldn''t tell for a while. All the officers and soldiers waiting outside the training ground had their eyes shining brightly, thinking that if they could be equipped with such advanced weapons in the future, they were very excited. Even the instructors from the United States are greedy one by one. Qi Qingshan saw that Fang Lang and Ludwig Folger had finished chatting, so he hurried forward and asked: "Boss, is this a new gun we made ourselves?" Seeing his expectant expression, Fang Lang smiled and said: "It hasn''t been officially finalized yet, and it still needs to be tested and improved. How do you feel?" "Fire, too much, too much firepower. Guys, it''s about the same as a machine gun, If everyone carries such a rifle on the battlefield, they can beat the enemy to the ground. Shall we equip a batch first to test the waters. " Qi Qingshan, who was full of excitement, was obviously overwhelmed by it. Although he didn''t hit the target with a few shots in a burst, he still wanted to equip it. After hearing what he said, Fang Lang rolled his eyes angrily and said: "It''s easy for you to say, who will pay for a batch of equipment! Besides, this gun has not been finalized yet! What are you equipped with now? " Qi Qingshan said with a smile on his face: "Boss, aren''t we going to take action soon? I think we can add more practical experience to this rifle! Such a fierce firepower will definitely be able to directly beat the enemy to the ground. " Glared at the other party fiercely, as if about to kick his ass, Fang Lang raised his foot and said: "Using undetermined weapons to participate in actual combat, what the **** are you thinking? If something goes wrong, it will cost the lives of the brothers. Don''t talk nonsense. " Qi Qingshan was Fang Lang''s childhood friend after all, so he was very courageous and dared to directly suggest experimenting with new weapons. After being an adjutant by Fang Lang''s side, he has always been considered prudent, but today he made some unreliable opinions. Ludwig Folger on the side listened to what the two said, but smiled confidently: "Boss, don''t worry, although you have made a lot of suggestions for improving this gun. But we''ve actually experimented with it many times, and it''s not a problem. If there is an actual combat opportunity, I suggest that you can bring a batch and give it to the front-line soldiers to try it out. See if you can help us find some problems that we didn''t find in the test. " I heard Ludwig Folger confidently express that the weapon has been tested. also hoped to conduct an actual combat test, Fang Lang couldn''t help thinking about it seriously. Fang Lang is not worried about what will happen if he equips this weapon. After all, this is a good gun that has been tested by later generations. Who said that because of the different caliber of the bullet, it may be somewhat different from the G3 rifle of later generations. But Fang Lang knew that the caliber of the gun that Ludwig Folger originally designed was not the 7.62*51mm NATO ammunition. The reason why this caliber was used later was also to adapt to the unified standards formulated by the United States. Since Ludwig Folger, as the designer, is confident that this gun will participate in actual combat, he is not easy to stop it. After pondering for a while, Fang Lang said: "If you''re really sure, it''s okay for me to let them test it. However, the time is tight, how many pieces can you provide? " Ludwig Folger hadn''t said anything yet, but Qi Qingshan''s face was already full of excitement. It seems that he really likes this rifle. "We have only trial-produced more than a dozen, and are conducting various experiments. If you need it, I can arrange it immediately and produce another batch urgently. " Seeing that Fang Lang agreed to carry out the test, Ludwig Folger answered quickly. He said that the tests conducted refer to tests under various conditions of use such as water bubbles, silt, sand, high temperature, and freezing. This is the process that every weapon has to go through before it is finalized. After Fang Lang heard what he said, he nodded and said: "Then prepare the quantity of one class and send them over! Remember to check it out and send someone over to train them how to use it. Time is tight, let them deliver it as soon as possible! Otherwise, if there is no time for adaptive training, I am afraid that problems will occur in actual combat. " Ludwig Folger understood what Fang Lang meant. It was indeed very dangerous for a soldier to go to the battlefield with a completely unfamiliar weapon. Therefore, before using it, it is very necessary to carry out the necessary adaptation training. "No problem, I''ll send them over from Sao Paulo right away." "Let them send it to the airport! I''ll send a military transport plane." Fang Lang was not at ease to let such a large batch of weapons go to civil aviation, so he hurriedly opened his mouth to arrange. Qi Qingshan was very happy when he heard that Fang Lang agreed to send a batch of weapons over for testing. Fang Lang didn''t even understand why he was so happy, and it wasn''t him who was actually used on the battlefield. The most he can do is to get addicted to his hands during training. Just sent a dozen rifles over for testing, of course Fang Lang would not go through any procurement process. After all, this is to help my family''s company test weapons, and it is not appropriate for the army to spend money to buy them. Moreover, the weapons after the experiment are to be recycled. He didn''t make sense either, and asked the troops to spend money to buy it. Now that the weapons have been tested, it is impossible for everyone to stay here to affect other people''s training. So, Fang Lang asked the factory technicians to take away everything, and ordered the soldiers to continue training. Just brought everyone from the factory back to his office. As soon as he walked to the door of the office, Fang Lang noticed that Sirio Reich from the Second Division of the Logistics Department was standing at the door of his office waiting for him. Seeing that there are so many outsiders here, it is obviously not suitable for reporting, so he winked at Fang Lang. Fang Lang nodded, and ordered Qi Qingshan to lead everyone down to rest first, and deal with other business affairs by himself, and invite everyone to have a big meal at noon. Qi Qingshan also saw Sirio Leitch standing at the door, and nodded to him. Greeting everyone: "Boss, I have some other business to do now, everyone will go down with me to rest first. At noon today, the boss is going to entertain everyone at the Deyi Building in Natal. " When everyone heard this, they all nodded and followed Qi Qingshan to leave. Fang Lang apologized to everyone, opened the door and walked into the office first. Sirio Reich nodded quickly to follow. After the two entered, Sirio Reich turned around and closed the door. Knowing that the other party had something to report, Fang Lang walked towards the tea table and asked without looking back: "What''s wrong?" Sirio Leitch, who followed in, opened a telegram with a solemn face, turned it around and handed it to Fang Lang. Fang Lang didn''t answer, he waved his hand and said: "Just say it!" "Yes, General. Just received a telegram that the Japanese flag was hoisted at the Japanese camp in the Fernando de Noronha Islands. " Sirio Leitch closed the telegram and spoke directly. "What? Raise the flag?" This was far beyond Fang Lang''s expectations. It was a bit difficult to understand the brain circuits of the Japanese. Don''t they know what such an approach means? An island in Brazil where prisoners are exiled, there is no garrison on it, and there is no national flag. But this is the territory of Brazil recognized by the international community. Brazil doesnt even hang its national flag. You Japanese hang a Japanese flag. Logically speaking, as a Brazilian general, he should be very angry. But at this time, he just wanted to laugh. This is true, if you don''t die, you won''t die! Originally thought that after they transported the general fire to the island, at most there would be a massacre, and all the prisoners on the island would be exterminated. This is at best an organized crime. But now they are fully armed and raised their national flags on the territory of other countries. This is declaring war on Brazil on behalf of Japan! No country can tolerate this kind of violation of national sovereignty. It seems that the original plan will be changed. In this case, it is unnecessary to find a reporter to go to the island to take pictures, which will attract the attention of the international community. Because this will make Brazil lose face in front of the whole world. As a Brazilian general, he still has to do things to maintain the dignity of the country, and this is originally his scope of responsibility. It turned out that if he wanted to land on the island, he had to find someone to go up, and then used the pressure of public opinion to bypass the police headquarters. But it is no longer necessary, he can directly send troops to the island in a dignified manner to encircle and suppress the enemy troops who invaded the country''s territory. Sirio Leitch heard Fang Lang''s questioning tone, and affirmed again in a serious tone: "Yes, our intelligence agents observed on the island today that the Japanese flag was hoisted from the Japanese camp." Fang Lang, who had figured out the joints, stood up suddenly, suppressing the urge to laugh. With a gloomy face, he said: "Asshole, this is to represent the Japanese government and occupy my Brazilian territory. This is a declaration of war on us. " After finishing speaking, he went directly to the desk, picked up the phone and dialed, and said directly: "Della Torre, come to my office." Then hung up the phone again, came to Sirio Leitch and asked: "What is the situation of the prisoners on the island now?" "The two main forces have been completely dispersed, and the two camps have been looted. The wounded in the conflict were executed by the Japanese on the spot, and the rest of the surviving people hid in the jungle to escape, and the Japanese were organizing a search. " Sirio Leitch''s tone was cold and his expression was serious. Although they had expected this, when things really happened according to their expectations, it still made him feel extremely angry. Although the people on the island are not very good people, they are also Brazilian nationals, and our Brazilian government can punish them however they want. But you, a group of deported Japanese, dared to set off a massacre on the island without any scruples. This is not acceptable to any Brazilian. It turned out that the Japanese attacked the presidential palace. They didn''t have any personal experience in Natal, but they just felt very angry. Regarding the governments choice to expel the Japanese, they also chose to implement it seriously, but they did not treat these ordinary Japanese civilians. But now the Japanese are under his nose, committing such evil deeds, and occupying the national territory. This made his impression of all Japanese people have reached the point where he wants to get rid of them quickly. The Eddie family, which provided arms to the Japanese, sent them to the island, and carried out the assassination of General Fang, has been included in his must-kill list. Now in his eyes, the Eddie family is no longer an opposition force who assassinated Fang Lang, but real treasonous criminals. Fang Lang heard the words and said to Sirio Leitch with some worry: "Hurry up and let our people withdraw, now the Japanese on the island have weapons, It is dangerous for them to stay on the island. Since these Japanese want to court death, then we will fulfill them! " Sirio Reich understood what Fang Lang meant. Now that the Japanese have erected the national flag, all that remains is to send troops to the island to wipe them out, and there is really no need to continue to investigate. Quickly stood at attention and saluted: "Yes, General! What about our plan?" He knew that the current situation of Fang Lang''s plan had changed, so he hurriedly asked. "The original plan was cancelled. I will immediately arrange for a reconnaissance plane to take off to conduct reconnaissance of the Fernando de Noronha Islands from a high altitude. At that time, let the reconnaissance plane take a few photos of the Japanese flag on the island. For the rest, it is up to us to perform our duties. " Fang Lang''s meaning is very clear, and the current form has become very beneficial to them. They only need an upright army to kill the enemy for the country and recover the territory occupied by the Japanese invaders. Of course, this requires a normal way of discovery, and it cannot be a telegram from the intelligence department that discovered the abnormality on the island. When someone asks, why did your intelligence department arrange for people to land on an island where prisoners are exiled. Are these things that happened on the island related to you? If an explanation is necessary, it can be explained. After all, they caught two transport ships that smuggled arms. According to the results of the interrogation, people were arranged to go to the island to investigate, and found an abnormality, which can be explained clearly. But in the final analysis, they are not the police and have no right to investigate this case. Maybe someone will grab you. They can send warships and aircraft to patrol the territory of Brazil to maintain the territorial integrity of the country. These are their responsibilities, and no one can say anything. It happened that there was an aircraft patrolling and found something unusual on the island. I went to check and found that the Japanese flag was flying on the island, so it made sense. Regarding this point, Sirio Reich is also very clear in his heart, this is the best way. No one can say anything according to the normal process. (end of this chapter) Chapter 352: do not die Chapter 352 Do not die The two were talking when there was a knock on the door. Fang Lang knew that Chief of Staff De La Torre should have arrived. casually said to the door, "Please come in!" Sure enough, I saw De La Torre walking in quickly. After entering the door, stand at attention and salute Fang Lang: "Hello, General!" Fang Lang waved his hand casually, motioning for the other party to close the door. Sirio Leitch on the side also stood at attention and saluted De La Torre. After the two questioned each other, Fang Lang beckoned the other to come and sit down. "Della Torre, just now our intelligence agent in the Fernando de Noronha Islands sent a telegram! The Japanese raised the Japanese flag on the island, and at the same time they were massacring exiled prisoners on the island. It seems that the island is going to be turned into Japanese territory. " The people sitting here are all his own people, and Fang Lang didn''t hide anything, and reported the matter directly to De la Torre. The current de la Torre is the chief steward of the naval base. Whether it is the navy, the air force, or the marine corps, they are now undergoing training and running-in. And these tasks are all handled by him. Fang Lang is another officer who is almost like a shopkeeper, so De La Torre is very busy. But he was content with it, knowing that it was Fang Lang''s trust in him. Now he has already taken his family to Natal and lived in the officer''s villa on the base. It can be said that his life has undergone earth-shaking changes, And all this is due to the fact that he has a good officer with him. He knew very well in his heart that without Fang Lang, he, a guy with no money and power, might have been kicked out of the army long ago and went out to make a living. The biggest possibility now is to serve as a crew member on an ocean-going freighter. My own family must still be struggling in that dilapidated house in Rio de Janeiro. So, he is definitely the most loyal to Fang Lang. Fang Lang is also very aware of this, and many things are directly entrusted to him to execute with confidence. Fang Lang didn''t hide anything from Eddie''s family''s revenge plan. Della Torre also actively participated in it, so he is very clear about the whole plan. Now I heard Fang Lang tell himself that the Japanese unexpectedly did something beyond everyone''s expectations. He couldn''t help being stunned, but he quickly realized it. smiled directly and said: "Hehe. General, these Japanese are courting their own death! This saves us trouble, the plan really can''t keep up with the changes! " Fang Lang saw his undisguised smile, coughed twice and said: "Ahem, we must resolutely crack down on this reckless act of violating our territorial sovereignty in Brazil. After you go back, immediately arrange a reconnaissance plane to conduct a comprehensive and detailed reconnaissance of the Fernando de Noronha Islands, After confirming the real situation, we will report it to the Ministry of Defense immediately. This is a rare opportunity to land on the beach. We will all be dispatched to launch a three-dimensional battle from three directions: sea, land and air. Let the Ministry of Defense see the combat effectiveness of our Rio de Janeiro aircraft carrier battle group. and our firm determination to safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity. " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Della Torre and Sirio Reich were a little stunned. It took a long time for Della Torre to recover, and said softly to Fang Lang: "Boss, there are only more than 300 armed minutes on the island. Are we going to use such a large force?" Unexpectedly, Fang Lang said with a serious face: "What are you talking about, how do you know how many enemies there are on the island. As long as foreigners appear on our territory without permission, they are our enemies. Their act of entering our territory without permission is a kind of aggression. It is an attitude that a lion fights a rabbit with all its strength. Our Rio de Janeiro aircraft carrier battle group must let our enemies, the Ministry of Defense, and the public see our determination to defend territorial integrity. Understand? " Everyone knows that there are only three hundred armed enemies on the island, but Fang Lang''s meaning is also very clear, That is, all the Japanese on the island are invaders, and they must be wiped out. Della Torre and Sirio Reich couldn''t understand what Fang Lang meant, so they stood up and saluted: "Yes, we must let all aggressors see our firm determination to maintain territorial integrity." Fang Lang nodded in satisfaction seeing the two of them: "Well! Very good, I will notify the TV station of our righteous actions and shoot the whole process, I hope everyone can show their best state. " This is a rare good opportunity to promote the combat effectiveness of the army. It turned out that their plan was to send a commando to touch it, then send a battalion to follow up, and finally occupy the island. Those who are really on the battlefield now are of course these people. But the scene must be made grander, and the entire aircraft carrier battle group must be dispatched. Create the strong pressure of the army pressing down on the border, and conduct a rare actual combat training by the way. "Yes, boss, I will start to make a battle plan immediately when I go back, and I must make good use of this actual combat opportunity to achieve the goal of training the team. However, it turned out that we promised the Marine Corps that we would select the squad with the strongest infiltration ability to carry out the infiltration mission. Whether to make changes. " Fang Lang smiled and said: "No, let them form a commando and land on the island first as a sharp knife force. Now we''re not going to be doing hostage rescue missions, we''re not going to be doing infiltration operations, This time we will push directly over with the momentum of Mount Tai. When formulating a battle plan, first arrange for plane bombing, then shoot with naval guns, and finally send the marines to land. In short, it is to show the local tyrant temperament of the Americans when they fought, first bombing with aerial bombs, then plowing the land with artillery fire, and finally cleaning up with infantry. Be sure to bring out the momentum and make the scene bigger. Let us show our face in front of the people of the whole country. " Della Torre swallowed hard and said: "Boss, wouldn''t it be too wasteful to fight like this. As far as the Japanese on the island are concerned, Im afraid its not enough for an aerial bomb! " Fang Lang stepped forward and patted de la Torre on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Haha. Don''t be so picky, kid, now society has entered a period of peace. In addition to this opportunity, we want to have such a big scene again in the future, but there is no chance. Besides, we dont need to spend our own money. The military expenses for this war must be paid by the Ministry of Defense! In addition, we can also strive for a war allowance for all officers and soldiers who participated in the war! " There is a saying that Fang Lang didn''t say, that the ammunition can only be bought after it is consumed! His aircraft carrier battle group is a purely American military force, and the arms are purchased from the Shata Company. By the way, train your own team, why not do it? Seeing that Fang Lang had made up his mind, de la Torre stopped hesitating and stood at attention to salute: "Yes, sir, I''ll arrange it now. " After de la Torre left, Sirio Reich continued to speak: "General, there is one more thing, We''ve got the Police Club, a list of all the members. What do we do next. " Hearing this, Fang Lang pondered for a while before saying: "Don''t deal with it, the current situation is that the Eddie family provides arms and supports the invaders. After this matter is exposed, we are looking at the reactions of these people. If there is anyone who dares to stand by the Eddie family, I will give him a thumbs up. I guess when the time comes, everyone can''t wait to draw a clear line with them first! But the strength of this police club should not be underestimated, it is best to be in our own hands. How about this! Please work hard to investigate the situation of all the people here. For those real policemen who are really capable, those who can be used by us will be used by us. If it is found that those people are black sheep, we will find a suitable candidate by his side and take it into our use. When the time is right, we will point him out and push our people up. The future police system must be under our control. It is best for all personnel to be professional police trained by our own police academy. If we can incorporate the strength of the club, then it will be convenient for us to implement the police academy plan. " Sirio Leitch understood Fang Lang''s thoughts this time, nodded and said: "Yes, General, I understand what should be done, and now I will go down and make arrangements. " After finishing speaking, he also backed out. Fang Lang was alone in the office. After pondering for a while, he had to sigh that the plan really couldn''t keep up with the changes. Who would have thought that these Japanese would have such great ambitions? It can only be said that if you dont die, you wont die, Originally according to the original plan, Fang Lang could at most land on the island in the name of saving foreign journalists, In the end, the most is to arrest the Japanese on the island and send them to prison. But now it''s better, I can be upright, mobilize the army and push it all the way. At that time, the Japanese who were killed by aerial bombs and naval artillery, no wonder he was cruel. Unfortunately, the newly confirmed new weapon actual combat test plan may be shelved. But when I turned around and thought about it, even if I attacked, it wouldn''t start right away. After all, it takes time for aircraft to conduct reconnaissance, report to the Ministry of Defense, wait for the approval of the Ministry of Defense, and then start operations. The new equipment will be delivered this afternoon, so there is still time. After changing the battle plan, the difficulty of the battle is significantly reduced. It is not a big problem to let some soldiers out of the assault team familiarize themselves with the new weapons and test them directly on the battlefield. It is also possible to take this opportunity to let the big bosses of the Ministry of National Defense know that there is such a new rifle, so as to facilitate future sales. After all, General Morais promised himself that as long as his small arms company can produce qualified weapons, the Brazilian military will take the lead in purchasing them. Thinking of this, Fang Lang sorted out his mood, walked out of the office, and first arranged for Ludwig Folger and others to go to the Chinese restaurant Deyilou in Natal and have a good Chinese meal. Soon, the reconnaissance plane performing the reconnaissance mission will investigate the situation on the Fernando de Noronha Islands clearly. And took very clear photos, even two burned camps, and a large pit full of corpses. Even the photos of the Japanese shooting at the reconnaissance aircraft are clear. Fang Lang originally planned to make a phone call directly to report to the Ministry of National Defense, but after seeing these photos, he changed his mind. How can there be a photo to clearly explain what I said verbally! Moreover, this time he also wants to invite the Minister of Defense, General Morais, to be present in person to witness the combat effectiveness of the aircraft carrier battle group! So, he just made a phone call to report to General Crook of the Admiralty that he had an urgent military situation, and he had to report to the chief in person. After getting the consent of General Crook, he directly ordered the airport to arrange a direct flight to Rio de Janeiro. It was nearly midnight when he arrived in Rio de Janeiro. Go directly to the Ministry of the Navy by car. General Crook, who received Fang Lang''s call, did not leave work, but has been waiting in the office for Fang Lang''s arrival. "General, you see, This was accidentally discovered by our reconnaissance plane during routine patrol missions today. " Fang Lang spread out the photos in the briefcase one by one on General Crook''s desk while talking. On the phone, Fang Lang didn''t explain what the emergency military situation was. After seeing these photos, General Crook''s face changed. He picked up one of the photos with the Japanese flag flying and asked: "This is where?" "Fernando de Noronha." As the Minister of the Navy, General Crook is of course very clear about the domestic territory, and he stood up when he heard the name. "When did this happen?" Fang Lang looked at General Crook with a serious tone and said: "This afternoon. Because the Fernando de Noronha Islands are far away from our Natal, we do not arrange fleet patrols every day. Recently, in order to exercise our naval aviation capabilities, we arranged for a plane to cruise here. Some time ago, there were no abnormalities. But this afternoon, the reconnaissance plane discovered that the flags of other countries were raised on the island. Our fleet participated in the Pacific War, so we recognized the flag of Japan at a glance. The reconnaissance plane immediately carried out approaching reconnaissance, After approaching the island, they were driven and shot by the Japanese on the island. But the reconnaissance plane still took risks and conducted a careful reconnaissance of the situation on the island. These photos were taken on site. Based on these photos, I preliminarily judged that the Fernando de Noronha Islands had been occupied by the Japanese and carried out a brutal massacre of the prisoners on the island. " As he spoke, he took out the photo of the big pit full of corpses and handed it to General Crook. Just glanced at it, and General Crook''s face turned livid. He punched the desk and shouted: "Damn Japanese. Do you know when they got here? " Fang Lang shook his head and said: "I don''t know, I only know that this is an island where prisoners are exiled, and our navy has no jurisdiction. However, my patrol ship has intercepted two arms smuggling ships near here, The munitions on the first ship were not delivered, because the ship came from Recife. So, we handed over the prisoners directly to the Recife Police Station. Unfortunately, there has been no clear investigation result from the police station. A few days ago we intercepted an arms smuggling ship again, and the arms on board had been delivered, and the delivery target was the Japanese on the island. According to their account, they transported a battalion of equipment to the island. As for whether there are other munitions on the island, we don''t know. " Hearing this, General Crook nodded and said: "I know about this matter, and the newspapers have been following up on it for the past two days! The one who provided the ammunition was Raymond Eddie, the Director of the Police Headquarters, right? " Fang Lang nodded. (end of this chapter) Chapter 353: obtain authorization Chapter 353 authorized "It seems that this Raymond Eddie has a big problem! Wait, didn''t today''s newspaper say that the woman is Japanese? I understand. This island is originally under the jurisdiction of the Police Headquarters. It seems that all of this has something to do with Raymond Eddie! Pack up and come with me to see General Morais. " General Crook''s brain turned quickly, and he understood the connection with just a simple thought. Fang Lang was not surprised to find the Minister of Defense in the middle of the night. After all, this is an urgent military situation, and there should be no delay. General Morais lived not far from the Ministry of National Defense. When Fang Lang and General Crook came to General Morais'' house, the Minister of Defense had already fallen asleep. I heard the adjutant say that the Secretary of the Navy, General Crook, and General Fang Lang of the Rio de Janeiro Aircraft Carrier Battle Group are visiting together and have urgent military information to report. General Morais''s little drowsiness was immediately dispelled, and he put on a pajamas and walked out. When I came to the living room, I saw Crook and Fang Lang with serious faces, knowing that something big must have happened, and said directly to the two: "Our study said." After all, they were at home, and it was definitely not suitable to talk about emergency military situations in the living room, so General Morais took the two of them to the study. General Crook signaled for Fang Lang to explain the situation. After Morais listened to Fang Lang''s narration and saw the photos taken by the reconnaissance plane, General Morais hit the desk with a punch. "Kill, this guy named Raymond Eddie deserves to be killed. This is secession, this is treason. Do you know where this person is? He must not be allowed to escape. " Fang Lang''s eyes flashed coldly, and he shook his head calmly. General Crook on the side heard this, and hurriedly said: "Excuse me, General, We rushed over to report to you as soon as we received the information. This Raymond Eddie is the head of the Public Security Department of the Police Headquarters. Would it be inappropriate for our military to take action against him? " Hearing what General Crook said, General Morais waved his hands indifferently and said: "Don''t say that he is just the Chief of the Public Security Department of the Police Headquarters. Even if he is the Chief of Police or the Minister of Justice, we must follow suit." After finishing speaking, regardless of the fact that it was already midnight, he picked up the phone on the desk and made a call. "Adnan Church, I''m Moraes, There is now evidence that Raymond Eddy, Director of the Public Security Department of the Police Headquarters, participated in and implemented acts of secession. I order you to arrest him immediately. " After hanging up the phone, he turned to look at Fang Lang and asked: "Fernando de Noronha is near your Natal naval base, what are you going to do with it?" Fang Lang knew that it was his turn to express his opinion at this time, so he stood at attention without hesitation and saluted: "Your Excellency, as soon as I received the information, I ordered the fleet to enter a state of first-level combat readiness. Only need to obtain the authorization of the Ministry of Defense and Mr. President, and start to act immediately, Resolutely crack down on hostile forces that violate my country''s territorial integrity, and safeguard national sovereignty and territorial integrity. " General Morais was very satisfied with Fang Lang''s statement, Actually, he knew very well in his heart that the Marine Corps must be needed to carry out this kind of battle to seize the island. And Fang Lang has a well-equipped Marine Corps under his command. And the closest distance to the enemy, this is his defense zone. So, he must be the one to carry out this mission. Nodding his head, he said to the two of them: "Then you and I go to meet the president, After obtaining the authorization of the President, start to act immediately. " "Yes, Your Excellency General." The two stood at attention and saluted. Then the three of them rushed to the presidential palace non-stop. When President Dutra heard the news, he asked in disbelief: "Japanese? Haven''t we already deported Japanese across the country? How did these **** end up in Fernando de Noronha? " "Mr. President, judging from the current intelligence, it should be this guy named Raymond Eddie who took advantage of his position. Sent these Japanese to the islands of Fernando de Noronha. " General Morais said in a serious tone, word by word. President Dutra frowned when he heard the name, and obviously knew this person. "I know who this guy is, the news papers are reporting him every day these days. A few days ago, the newspaper said that your navy discovered an arms smuggling case, I also asked the Attorney General about this person. His father was the Deputy Minister of Justice of the previous term, and he was a powerful figure in the police system during President Vargas'' period. Now the Brazilian police system is full of his protgs. If I remember correctly, his father died in the action of Japanese mobs attacking the presidential palace. But he would actually cover up the Japanese and support the Japanese in this act of splitting the country. It seems that the relationship between their family and the Japanese is not simple! You said, would the Japanese mob attack on the presidential palace be related to their family? " Generals Morais and Crook looked at each other when they heard this. Obviously, they didn''t know much about the police system. But Fang Lang''s eyes lit up, he knew very well what happened when the Japanese mob attacked the presidential palace. For the president, it was precisely because of the actions of the Japanese mob that the military coup he had prepared was covered with a cloak of sweeping away the Japanese mob. But his subsequent house arrest of the former president still caused him a lot of controversy. Even, many Vargas supporters claim that the so-called Japanese mob is simply a farce directed and performed by President Dutra in order to overthrow the rule of President Vargas. President Dutra''s current words are obviously instructive. It is obvious that they want to use the connection between the Eddie family and the Japanese to place the blame for the Japanese mob attacking the presidential palace on the Eddie family. This is an opportunity to completely defeat the Eddie family. Seeing that the two generals were silent, he couldn''t help asking: "Mr. President is suspicious that Raymond Eddy''s father, the Deputy Attorney General, Is the Japanese mob behind the attack on the presidential palace? " Sure enough, after hearing Fang Lang''s question, President Dutra''s eyes lit up, and he gave Fang Lang an appreciative look. His gaze swept across the faces of General Morais and General Crook inadvertently. Seeing that the two of them were still in a daze, they couldn''t help cursing, "Two old foxes." smiled and continued: "I just suddenly thought of whether there is such a possibility. After all, it can be seen from this incident that the relationship between their family and the Japanese is not shallow! Both the father and son had an improper relationship with this woman named Mizuno Xiaoling. If they didn''t have a great relationship with Japanese people, how could they be with this Japanese woman. Why did this guy send so many deported Japanese to Fernando de Noronha Islands? " Everyone coughed twice when they heard the improper relationship. But Fang Lang gave President Dutra a big praise in his heart, and immediately nodded and said: "What Mr. President said is too reasonable. It seems that this family is not a good person. Shall we check other people in their family, will they also be involved in this matter? " How could Fang Lang let go of this opportunity to push the entire Eddie family into the vortex by pushing the boat along the way. So, without hesitation, the entire Eddie family was brought into the scope of the investigation. General Morais and General Crook on the side, watching the two sing together, sent the entire Eddie family into this vortex. He curled his lips inwardly, with a look of disdain, but nodded in approval on his face. To them, this Raymond Eddie absolutely be damned. It doesn''t matter what role his family played in this incident. The two generals have nothing to do with this family. Mr. President wants this family to blame the Japanese mob for attacking the presidential palace. They certainly don''t obstruct. After all, everyone is in the government, so why fight against the president for an insignificant family? President Dutra was even more overjoyed when he heard Fang Lang''s words, and he unconsciously showed a smile on his face and said: "Well! We can''t wrong a good person, but we absolutely can''t let a bad person go. Since all members of the Eddie family are suspected. Then we have to investigate seriously. If other people are indeed innocent, we can be regarded as proving their innocence! Since this is an extremely serious case involving secession, it should not be handed over to the Ministry of Justice for investigation. My opinion is that the Ministry of Defense directly set up an investigation team to investigate all members of this family. Strive to give an explanation to the people of the whole country as soon as possible. " When the three of them heard the president''s instructions, they all understood and stood up to salute. "Yes, Mr. President." Regardless of whether other members of the Eddie family were involved in this matter, as long as their family was investigated for the crime of secession, it would definitely mean that the political life of this family was completely over. As for whether they are innocent or actually involved, it doesn''t matter anymore. Mr. Presidents words have made it clear that he is asking the investigation team to give an explanation to the people of the whole country, not to give the Eddie family a clean slate. It means that whether the family is innocent or not is not important. The key is to let the Brazilian people know that the family is being investigated by the government because of this matter. President Dutra saw that the three had clearly taken orders, and nodded with satisfaction and continued: "For the bad incidents of the Japanese violating our country''s territorial integrity, we must respond quickly, I hope that your Ministry of National Defense can immediately send troops to cleanly and completely wipe out the enemies who have entered our territory. " After hearing what President Dutra said, General Morais said with a serious tone and firm eyes: "Mr. President, please rest assured that our Brazilian National Defense Forces have the ability and confidence to destroy all invading enemies. General Fang Lang''s aircraft carrier battle group is ready to attack at any time, Just wait for the authorization of Mr. President, and we will start to act immediately. Use the most powerful military force to make our enemies feel the despair of being against us. " President Dutra followed General Morais''s words, looked at Fang Lang, nodded solemnly and said: "Very well, tomorrow morning, I will address Congress. Officially authorizes the Ministry of Defense to conduct operations against the enemy in the Fernando de Noronha Islands. General Fangs aircraft carrier battle group is the most powerful sea force in Brazil, I believe you will not let me down. " Looking into Mr. President''s eyes, Fang Lang looked at each other firmly, and said solemnly: "Please rest assured Mr. President, Guaranteed to complete the mission! " The matter was urgent, and everyone didn''t wait too long. They left the presidential palace quickly and started preparations according to their respective divisions of labor. The next day, early in the morning. It was still Brazil Times that announced this news for the first time. Suddenly, the whole of Brazil was in an uproar. Especially the huge corpse pit in the photo on the front page headline, and the plaster flag fluttering in the wind. Instantly ignited the anger of all Brazilian people. When the newspaper mentioned that the weapons used by the Japanese on the island came from the support of the Eddie family. The entire Eddie family was completely pushed to the forefront and fell into a situation where everyone shouted and beat them. Even Brisso Eddie''s home was also implicated. The gate of the house was surrounded by demonstrators, who kept throwing all kinds of stones and discarded wine bottles into their house. There is no way to keep a complete piece of doors and windows. It''s a pity that the family members were captured by the Brazilian Intelligence Agency early in the morning. Otherwise, the members of the Eddie family must be doomed, and they may be torn apart by the angry people. In the morning, Mr. President and the Minister of Defense delivered speeches in Congress, officially ordering the Rio de Janeiro aircraft carrier battle group to go to the Fernando de Noronha Islands to regain lost ground. And proposed at the meeting to officially list Japan as a permanent hostile country. This proposal was unanimously passed at the meeting. Brazilian TV station seized the opportunity immediately and carried out the first full live broadcast, allowing Brazilian news to spread in advance and entering the audio-visual era. It was the first time that the people saw the President delivering a speech in Congress. For a while, the alleys were empty, and all public places where TVs were placed by TV stations were besieged. Many wealthy people said on the spot without hesitation that they would buy TV sets to watch at home, and the TV promotion activities officially started. It can be said that the opening is both a king bomb. In an instant, a new thing like TV entered people''s field of vision. Fang Lang had already flown back to his naval base in a special plane as early as dawn. By the time the plane landed at the base, the base had already entered a battle state. The warships on the pier have all been activated, and truckloads of military supplies are being transported to the warships non-stop. Heavily armed soldiers are lined up, and from time to time there will be teams that have completed the team and march towards the pier with neat steps. Because there were no landing ships, the two tank landing ships managed by Colonel Valdo Grama came in handy instead. According to the combat plan, all landing troops will directly board the tank landing ship and rush to the island. At this time, Fang Lang realized that maybe his troops really lacked an amphibious armored force. I have always felt that as a Brazilian army, I may never have the opportunity to land on the island. I didn''t expect reality to hit my face so quickly, it seems that the steps really can''t be too big! No, did you get caught by accident? Fortunately, there are two tank landing craft presented by the Yankees, which can directly send people to the coast, otherwise fishing boats may be requisitioned. (end of this chapter) Chapter 354: attack begins Chapter 354 Attack begins Because the Fernando de Noronha Islands are far from the coastline, by the time the aircraft carrier fleet led by Fang Lang officially arrived off the island, it was already the early morning of the next day. As the first ray of sunshine rose from the sea in the morning, the islands of Fernando de Noronha, which had been quiet for a day, revived again. In the past few days, the Japanese on the island have been very happy. As the prisoners on the island were wiped out one by one, the entire island was considered complete and fell into the hands of the Japanese. Matsuura Ryota, a young Japanese who was awakened by morning urine, stretched his waist, Staggeringly carrying a Mauser 98K rifle that is about the same length as his height. Arriving at the edge of the cliff by the sea, he skillfully untied his belt, revealing a yellowed loincloth. After fumbling for a while, he released the overnight inventory directly to the sea. As the stock was released, the whole person let out a comfortable moan. The orange-red sunlight on the sea level made Matsuura Ryota, who had half-squinted his eyes, simply close his eyes. But suddenly, Matsuura Ryota closed his eyes abruptly, wondering if he had hallucinations just now. Rubbing his eyes with his hands, he carefully closed the eyes into a small slit, But I saw a few huge black shadows in the sunlight on the sea. Because of the light problem, it doesn''t look real. Thought it was because he didn''t wake up, Matsuura Ryota rubbed his hands vigorously on his face a few times. He seemed to realize something, and hurriedly raised his head to look in the direction of the rising sun again. I saw that there were indeed several huge black shadows on the sea surface, which were slowly getting bigger. Although he has not participated in the war, he knows very well what it is. Regardless of whether the opponent is an enemy or a friend, the opponent''s goal is obviously his side. Matsuura Ryota, who understood all this, couldn''t care less about releasing the water. With one hand, he lifted his wet pants because of panic, and with the other hand, he held a rifle as long as his height, and hurriedly ran towards the camp. shouted in panic: "Warship, warship, a large number of warships appeared on the sea. Mr. Mizuno, Mr. Kobayashi, there are warships on the sea. " The people in the camp just got up, looking at his embarrassed figure from a distance, they all wanted to come forward and make fun of him. After hearing what he yelled, everyone''s expressions changed drastically. The whole camp was like a hot oil pan, and a spoonful of cold water was poured into it, and it boiled instantly. The people who were still packing themselves up just now were in a mess, and some of them boldly ran to the beach, wanting to confirm the news of Ryota Matsuura. More people ran to their shacks like headless flies, wanting to tell the news to everyone they could meet. Xinyi Mizuno, who just woke up, also heard the bluffing and chaotic movements outside. Still feeling very annoyed in my heart, I opened the door and shouted loudly: "Baga! Early in the morning, what is the ghost calling?" Soon he saw Matsuura Ryota, who was running towards him in embarrassment, with a horrified expression on his face. and the camp was in disarray because of his shouting. He was so angry that he wanted to curse. But before he could open his mouth, he heard what the other party was shouting, and his face changed drastically. Immediately understood the reason for the chaos in the camp. However, he still forced himself to calm down and said: "What''s the name of the ghost? Tell me something slowly." Ryota Matsuura saw Mizuno Shingi standing at the door, and rushed straight to Mizuno Xinyi without stopping, pointing with his hand in the direction of the rising sun in the east. Breathing heavily, he said: "Mr. Mizuno, warships, there are many warships on the sea." At this time, Hisaku Kobayashi, who lives in the small shack next to him, has also arrived at Mizuno Shingi''s door. After hearing Matsuura Ryota''s words, his expression changed. hurriedly asked: "Which country''s warship is it, is it coming at us?" Ryota Matsuura was completely stunned. How could he know this, but he rushed back to report the news as soon as he found a warship. Now hearing Kobayashi Hisakusaku''s question, he can only shake his head in a daze and say: "Ugh! I don''t know!" Mizuno Shingi also asked hastily: "Are they ashore?" "Not yet, there is still a little distance from us." Hearing Matsuura Ryota''s words, Mizuno Shingi said dissatisfiedly: "Then why are you yelling, maybe you are passing by?" But Hisaku Kobayashi on the side looked ugly, he was not as optimistic as Mizuno Xinyi. This is the territorial waters of Brazil, how could there be warships from other countries passing by! As if to confirm Kobayashi Hisakusaku''s guess, the roar of the plane came from the sky. Two reconnaissance planes flew straight in the direction of their camp. There were a few bold Japanese in the camp, they directly raised their weapons and fired directly at the plane in the sky. But the speed of the plane is very fast. It is basically more difficult to focus on the plane in the sky with a rifle than to win a lottery. At this moment, the pilot of the reconnaissance plane flying in the sky is exactly the Brazilian HNA pilot Sam Dudley who used the plane to reconnoitre the Fernando de Noronha Islands for the first time. Seeing the Japanese on the island firing at his reconnaissance plane, he smiled disdainfully, and called out on the radio indifferently: "The hummingbird calls the eagle''s nest. Confirm the location of the enemy camp, bearing 023. Above the camp, the Japanese flag is clearly visible. The enemy has weapons and is shooting at our aircraft, Apply for counterattack, complete! " A reply came from the communicator: "Eagle''s Nest receives, Hummingbird fights back to dismiss. Your task is to ensure the safety of the reporters on the wingman, and protect the reporters to record all the situations on the island. Finished! " Sam Dudley let out a sigh of dissatisfaction and some helplessness, and glanced at another reconnaissance plane behind him. He knew there was a reporter with a camera on it, At this moment, the camera above him should be looking at the Japanese camp on the island. Again, connect to the communicator: "Hummingbird, receive. In the enemy camp, the enemy is gathering, you can start bombing, over. " "Eagle''s Nest received! The bomber is taking off, Hummingbird, please pay attention to monitor the battlefield. Report the enemy''s position at any time and guide the target for the attack. " "Hummingbird understands! Hummingbirds are gaining altitude, Waiting for the bomber to approach, it''s over! " Just when Sam Dudley contacted the aircraft carrier, Hisaku Kobayashi in the camp already knew that he was in trouble this time. Since the afternoon before yesterday, when a plane was flying around the island, he felt abnormal. As a veteran of the Russo-Japanese War, he has no experience in air defense operations. So, there is no good way to deal with the planes in the sky, but I just instinctively raised my vigilance. I didn''t expect the situation to change so quickly. The two planes in the sky today are obviously different from the last two planes. Didn''t fly around, but kept circling around the camp. He knew very well in his heart that the Brazilian army discovered the situation on the island, The warship in the sea seems to have come to attack him and the others. "Mizuno-kun, we were discovered by the Brazilians. It seems that the enemy warship is coming at us. " Xinyi Mizuno had already reacted at this time, looked at the two planes in the sky, and said in a slightly flustered tone: "Xiao Lin-kun, what should we do now?" After all, he was just an ordinary person, and when he heard the enemy''s naval fleet coming towards him, he felt a little panicked. But it''s no wonder, he is very aware of his own strength. They only had more than 300 guns in total, but the opponent sent a warship directly. The two sides are not at the same level at all. Now the only person here with actual combat experience is Kobayashi Hisaku, so he can only pin his hopes on Kobayashi Hisaku. Kobayashi Hisaku said in a deep voice: "Surrender or resist! It depends on what Mizuno-kun wants to choose. " Upon hearing the surrender, Mizuno Shingi immediately shook his head and said: "Impossible, I will never surrender. The warriors of the Great Japanese Empire will never surrender to the enemy. " Mizuno Shingi, who has already surrendered once, has a very firm attitude, and he will never surrender again this time. The last time he surrendered, he lost everything. Even if he was killed this time, he would not surrender. Seeing Mizuno Shinichi''s attitude, Kobayashi Hisaku nodded in satisfaction, As a veteran, he also did not agree to surrender. "Then let''s assemble our team and build a defense line by the sea, Beat back all the Brazilians who tried to land on the island. " Mizuno Shinichi also gritted his teeth, and said fiercely: "Then we''ll fight these Brazilians." After finishing speaking, he said to the few Japanese people who had already surrounded him: "Assemble the team, we will drive all the enemies who try to land on the island into the sea." When the people around heard that the two had made a decision, they did not hesitate, and agreed in unison: "Hay!" Then they turned around and assembled the team. The reconnaissance plane that has been circling around them can naturally clearly see the scene where their personnel are gathering. At this moment, Sam Dudley didn''t know what to say, How much you look down on me! actually swaggered and assembled in front of me. If the officer didn''t allow me to attack you directly, the machine gun on my plane could wipe you all out. Actually, these Japanese cannot be blamed for this, Brazil has never experienced war at all. The air force was established with the support of the Americans because of the reason for participating in the war. These Japanese who have been living in Brazil, of course, have no chance to know how the Air Force fights. There is no awareness of air defense at all, and even many Japanese are looking at the two planes in the sky as if they were watching a show. Muttering in his heart, what are the two planes circling around themselves wanting to do. Just as the Japanese assembled their teams, another six planes flew over from the sky not far away. Of the six planes, two were fighters and only four were bombers. Originally, in this situation, there was no need for two fighter jets to escort. But as a commander, Fang Lang felt that this was an opportunity to train troops. If all the bombers were on the field, it would be embarrassing to clear the Japanese in a round of bombing. There is no way to implement the subsequent battle plan. So, in accordance with normal combat procedures, two fighter jets were sent to escort. With the guidance of the reconnaissance plane, the four bombers flew directly over the camp and dropped bombs on the camp one by one in order. Because the camp was too small, each plane had only time to drop two aerial bombs. The Japanese who were gathering on the ground also noticed several planes flying in the distance. Kobayashi Hisaku saw that these planes did not circle around their own camp like the two previous planes, but instead rushed towards their camp in a straight line. Instinctively aware of the danger. Before he had time to think about it, he shouted: "Spread out, hide!" But the Japanese on the ground obviously didn''t have his sense of crisis, except for a few people who habitually obeyed orders and dispersed. Most of the others looked blankly at the plane in the sky. A large number of people raised their weapons and fired directly at the approaching plane. Soon someone found the aerial bomb dropped from the plane. "Hey! These planes are laying eggs." Don''t blame these people for being rare and strange. Most of the Japanese immigrants to Brazil are farmers. The main work of everyone in Brazil is farming, and there is no opportunity to contact the outside world. There are even many people here who can''t even speak Portuguese, and have been living in a relatively closed environment. There are not many opportunities for them to get in touch with the latest knowledge outside. So, when they saw the plane for the first time, they didn''t realize the danger at all. When the first aerial bomb fell straight towards them, everyone realized the danger. began to flee in all directions, and the speed at which they could escape was obviously not as fast as the falling speed of the aerial bombs. With a bang, a huge fireball burst open. The powerful shock wave knocked down everything around, and the shrapnel flying around directly knocked the shacks in the camp away. People near the explosion point were directly blown into pieces, and people further away were also thrown into the air like a ball, and then fell heavily to the ground. Blood flowed from their mouths and noses, and they were obviously seriously injured and died. The violent explosion made everyone in the camp instantly deaf. A huge pothole several meters deep was left on the ground. Everyone in the camp woke up instantly from their daze, and everyone started fleeing desperately. This is only the first aerial bomb explosion, the first round of bombing by four planes, and each plane dropped two aerial bombs. The first wave of attack is eight aerial bombs. After the attack, the camp was in a mess, only some people who had been bombarded were left in place at a loss. Sam Dudley, who was far in the air, couldn''t help but click his tongue when he saw this effect. After all, there are no reinforced concrete fortifications here, and the consequences of being directly hit by aerial bombs are quite terrifying. The Japanese camp was blown out of eight huge pits. The deep pit was pitch black, surrounded by **** limbs, and corpses carbonized by the high temperature at the moment of the explosion. Because there are dense jungles here, some of the shock waves of the aerial bombs were absorbed by the trees, which saved many Japanese from being directly killed by the bombs. But also, it is also because the trees are impacted by the shock wave and shrapnel of the bomb, causing more sawdust to fly around. Some broken branches easily pierced through the human body, of course this is only a minority, Most sawdust caused injuries and blood flow. Kobayashi Hisaku has the fastest reaction. Although he has never experienced plane bombing, he has a very keen sense of danger. As soon as he sensed the danger, he pulled Mizuno Xinyi who was still in a daze, and ran into the jungle desperately. This allowed them to escape the first wave of bombing. (end of this chapter) Chapter 355: attack Chapter 355 Attack The pilot on the bomber doesn''t care what kind of tragedy is below. The task they received was to throw all the aerial bombs on the plane over the heads of the aggressors. Although the Japanese camp suffered heavy losses, more than a thousand Japanese are obviously not a problem that can be completely solved by eight aerial bombs. Especially when the camp is in a mess, and the plaster flag in the middle of the camp is still fluttering in the wind. Whether it is Sam Dudley or the pilot of the bomber, they feel particularly dazzling. So, the bomber pilots, after completing the turn, aimed at the Japanese camp again and repeated the bombing action. Pull up the entire Japanese camp, especially that disgusting plaster flag. Be sure to let him down completely. It''s a pity that the current aerial bombs are not the laser-guided bombs of later generations, let alone missiles. Therefore, the accuracy is actually very worrying. After the bomber pilots completed two bombings, they still failed to knock down the stubborn plaster flag. This made all the pilots feel very humiliated, and they cursed on the communication channel. It''s a pity that the TBF Avenger bomber they fly can only carry at most one 2,000-pound aerial bomb, or four 500-pound aerial bombs. And they were equipped with 500-pound aerial bombs this time. After two rounds of bombing, their bullets were empty. No matter how unwilling I was, I had no choice but to choose to return. The fighter pilot in charge of the **** didn''t want to just go back without getting anything. They turned the nose of the plane directly, and made a low-altitude dive towards the figures that could be seen near the camp, and then used the six machine guns on the nose to shoot wildly. The Japanese who continued to observe the situation while hiding in the jungle were frightened and hid in the jungle again. This is obviously not what Sam Dudley wants to see, because the more scattered the Japanese are, the more difficult it is to annihilate them. So, Sam Dudley was straight in the channel, calling out: "Little Bird One, Little Bird Two, please stop your reckless behavior immediately. In this way, you will drive the Japanese into the jungle, which is not conducive to the later attack. Please return to your **** positions, over! " Pilots are all young people with a certain cultural foundation, and of course they are not stupid. After hearing Sam Dudley''s reminder, they all reacted, and said with some shame: "Little Bird One, received! Thanks for the reminder Hummingbird, done! " "Little Bird Two, received! Now break away, over! " Mizuno Shingi and Kobayashi Hisaku, who had been hiding in the jungle, finally left when they saw the enemy in the sky, and Qiqi breathed a sigh of relief. "Baga! Damn it, what shall we do now!" Mizuno Xinyi looked livid, looking at the camp that had been basically smoothed out, he gritted his teeth and asked Kobayashi Hisaku for his opinion. This attack method obviously refreshed Kobayashi Hisaku''s cognition. Fortunately, on the Japanese-Russian battlefield, he has experienced even more cruel scenes, Since everyone has no escape route, it is obviously useless to hide. So, he said without hesitation: "Aerial strikes cannot occupy the island at all, and the enemy will inevitably send infantry to land in the end. The terrain of this island is complex, and there are not many places suitable for landing. In my opinion, the most likely place for the enemy to land is in the direction of the pier. My opinion is that we must gather our troops immediately and go to the pier to establish a defensive line. Create a lot of damage to the enemy infantry preparing to land. As long as we can keep their infantry off the coast, Then this island must always be under our control. If the enemy continues to use planes to bomb, we only need to disperse and hide in the jungle so that they can''t find us. " Although Kobayashi''s plan seemed reasonable and practical, it was full of loopholes. But among the Japanese here, only Hisaku Kobayashi has military experience. Everyone can''t find the hidden loopholes in this plan at all. For example, they don''t have ammunition supplies at all, and how long they can fight. Now their camp has been completely destroyed, all living supplies have been lost, Today''s lunch is not settled, how long they can survive with hungry stomachs is a serious problem. But the Japanese, who had been stunned by the bombing of the plane, obviously had no time to pay attention to these. After hearing Kobayashi Hisaku''s analysis, they all felt very reasonable. When everyone was at a loss, one person was able to stand up and put forward a seemingly reliable suggestion. Everyone will basically choose to follow this advice naturally, which is human nature. So, despite heavy losses, everyone still gathered slowly under the greetings of their companions and moved closer to the pier. Although their movements were very careful, they still did not escape Sam Dudley''s eyes. He quickly reported the situation on the island to the fleet. and reported the specific coordinates of the enemy to the command center. On the warships on the sea, the gun coats of the naval guns have long been torn off, and the coordinate data are reported to the fort one by one. The huge naval guns began to turn in unison, moving up and down, and quickly finished aiming. The camera on the warship clearly captured the aiming action of the naval gun, which looked extremely shocking. With an order, all the naval guns immediately started salvoing. The moment the gunfire came out, the flames accompanied by smoke, and the deafening explosion made the cameraman in charge of photography excited. The Japanese who were gathering in the jungle soon heard a piercing scream. Before everyone could react to what happened, clusters of flames suddenly exploded in the team. Blast the crowd that just gathered into the air. Kobayashi Hisaku, a well-informed veteran, yelled as soon as he heard the scream: "Bombardment! Cover up, everyone disperse." As he spoke, he pushed Mizuno Shingi to the ground and dragged him to the jungle desperately. It''s a pity that his cry was completely covered by the sound of the shell explosion, and it didn''t serve as a reminder. Fortunately, these Japanese had already been bombed by aerial bombs once, and the moment the explosion sounded, everyone began to flee desperately. Some smart people also imitated Kobayashi Jius movements, lying down directly, and crawling towards the depths of the jungle. There are no battleships in the Rio de Janeiro aircraft carrier battle group, and there are no large-caliber naval guns with a caliber of more than 200 mm. But on the Cleveland-class cruiser, the power of the four triple-mounted 152mm caliber artillery is enough to make people feel desperate. In just one minute, within a small area of ??one square kilometer, it has withstood the bombing of more than forty rounds of heavy artillery. When the sound of the guns finally stopped, the Japanese crowd who had managed to gather just now had been completely torn apart. Mizuno Shingi has never experienced such a cruel scene. Looking at the pieces of meat all over the floor and the messy battlefield, the whole person fell into a state of sluggishness. Unconsciously muttering in his mouth: "It''s over, it''s over." Hisaku Kobayashi on the side saw Shinyo Mizuno''s appearance, and knew that the other party had been stimulated too strongly, and his mind was a little out of order. You can only get up by yourself and look for survivors on the battlefield. But on the current battlefield, there are no Japanese who are still standing. While searching, he shouted loudly: "Is there still alive? Answer me, is there still alive? The living come to me. Are there any alive? " After Kobayashi''s long-distance search, From the pits one by one, the people who were buried by the dust raised by the explosion gathered together. There are more than 1,000 Japanese people. After a round of aircraft bombing and a round of naval bombardment, there are less than 100 people who can still stand normally. And, only deep fear remained on the faces of these people. Now they can''t even hold their weapons steady, let alone organize them into battle. These are all Japanese farmers without any training. Experienced such blows continuously in just a few tens of minutes, let alone them. Even well-trained fighters will completely collapse. The only normal Kobayashi Hisaku saw this situation, and shook his head helplessly, sighed heavily, and fell down on the ground with a dejected expression. At this moment, two tank landing craft on the sea have slowly begun to approach the pier. The bombers returning to the aircraft carrier have also been reloaded and are ready to take off at any time to provide air cover for the troops about to land. The main force responsible for the attack this time, except for the ten classes with the most outstanding performance in penetration training, more than a hundred people. It was the first battalion of the Marine Corps led by Duarte who managed to break out of the encirclement. And now in the two tank landing craft, it is the ten squads with the most outstanding performance in penetration training that are responsible for the assault mission. Although, due to changes in the situation, the original infiltration operation plan has become the current beach landing. But the soldiers are still very excited. After all, this rare opportunity for actual combat can not only get wartime allowances. You can also get combat achievements, and give priority to promotion opportunities. Soldiers, who doesn''t want to get promoted and get rich. In the Rio de Janeiro aircraft carrier battle group, there are only two ways to get promoted and get rich, and that is to get real credit. When there is no actual combat, everyone gets promotion opportunities through training and evaluation. You cant fake this, you can only rely on yourself or lead your team to train hard, show real strength, and defeat your competitors. You have a chance. But actual combat is different, with great uncertainty. Although it is very dangerous, you may risk your life. But if you are lucky, you can make great achievements by accident, which is much easier than getting promoted through training. Therefore, everyone is looking forward to having the opportunity to participate in actual combat. The ten squads serving as the commando this time, I dare not say that they are the ten most powerful squads in the entire Marine Corps, but they are definitely the first echelon of combat effectiveness. The people in the tank landing craft didn''t feel any pressure at all at the moment. They all now know who their opponents are and what weapons they have. After a round of air force bombing and naval artillery bombardment, it''s hard to say how much the opponent can have left. On his side, there are air force and naval artillery cover. If this cant easily wipe out a group of Japanese dwarfs who just took up arms, then they might as well smash themselves to death with a piece of tofu. "Sam, show me the new guy in your hand!" "What''s interesting, it''s just a weapon to be tested." "I can help you experiment! How about I invite you to eat at Deyilou?" "Fuck off! Do I look like an idiot? This is an opportunity I finally got, so stop arguing, After this battle is over, I will invite the whole class to have dinner in Deyilou. " "See what''s the matter, I''ll return it to you when I get out." "Go away, everyone has been together for so long, who doesn''t know who!" "hey-hey." The surrounding crowd burst into laughter. It turned out that Fang Lang handed over the new rifle gun that Fang Lang would use for testing to the best marksmen in the commando team. The comrades-in-arms were envious one by one. This guy is like a light machine gun, it can shoot the most bullets at the enemy in the shortest time. On the battlefield, there is not much time for you to aim. If you can shoot as many bullets as possible in the shortest time, you may kill the opponent before the enemy and hold your own life. So, everyone is envious of these new guns. Just as everyone was talking and laughing, the officer on the landing craft suddenly shouted: "Everyone is ready, check the weapons and equipment for the last time, we will land in thirty seconds. Landing craft guns will provide you with the necessary cover, good luck. " The commandos on the boat all looked solemn, knowing that it was their turn to play. Stop talking and laughing, start checking your own weapons seriously, and at the same time help your comrades around you check. For a while, the cabin was filled with the sound of pulling the bolt. The soldiers all took a deep breath to stabilize their emotions, and then pressed their left hands on the comrades in front. Bend your knees slightly, lower your posture, and prepare to leave the warehouse. The soldiers standing in the front row were all strong and strong men. They carried their guns behind their backs and raised a huge iron shield with both hands. Get ready to meet the bullets at the moment of opening the door. This was specially prepared by Fang Lang for the commandos. After watching the Normandy landing movie in later generations, he knew very well that the landing craft was actually not safe. If the enemy shoots at them with a machine gun, a whole boat of people may be directly reimbursed. So, from the experience of later generations, he thought of using this steel bulletproof shield to resist the first wave of possible attacks from the enemy. As long as the soldiers in the front row hold their shields and rush off the landing craft. The fighters have the opportunity to spread out on the beach, although, this does not make all the attacking fighters unharmed. But it can also minimize the first wave of damage. As the Marine Corps, how to launch an attack from a landing craft is their key training subject. So, the rest is to test the technical and tactical level of the fighters themselves. Soon, the 30-second countdown ended, and the landing ship slowly landed on a fairly flat beach. The blow that everyone expected did not come, and even the 20mm cannon used for cover on the landing craft did not respond. But the sudden violent vibration of the hull still let the commandos understand that the landing craft had landed. While everyone was still in a daze, the huge baffle in front of the landing craft hit the ground directly with a "bang", splashing a piece of sea water. The officer behind him shouted loudly: "go, go, go! let''s go!" "Quick, quick, quick, everyone don''t stay in the boat, rush out and seek cover. Hurry up! " As the baffle fell, the soldiers quickly followed behind the soldiers in front without the officer''s urging, and filed out from the landing craft. The soldiers after disembarking did not disperse immediately, but continued to move forward under the cover of shields. (end of this chapter) Chapter 356: occupied Chapter 356 Occupation On the beach on the east coast of Fernando de Noronha Islands, two tank landing craft were parked on the beach on the coast. Two groups of heavily armed warriors quickly rushed to the beach under the cover of their shields. The bombers and fighter jets in the sky were flying over their heads, heading straight for the island. This is obviously a standard beach landing tactic. What is strange is that there is no defensive front formed by any enemies on the island at all. This made the commandos who were still a little nervous a little baffled. It''s like a hard punch on the cotton. It is unspeakably uncomfortable. "Strange, why is there no one defending?" "That''s right! The bombing and shelling just now won''t make you feel lonely!" "What nonsense, the aviation personnel are not blind, how could they do such a stupid thing." "In my opinion, these Japanese dwarfs don''t know how to fight at all, and they don''t even build fortifications." "How do you know that the other party didn''t want to lure us into the jungle and ambush us?" "I''m a little worried, whether it will be wiped out by planes and naval guns." "No way! If so, aren''t we working in vain?" "Don''t tell me, it''s really possible. These little Japanese guys might not have gotten up just now! Directly on the bed, bombed by the planes and wiped them all flat. " "That''s right! There are only a few hundred of them in total. They won''t really be bombed out!" "Asshole, look, these aviation soldiers are here again, are they asking for soup and not giving us a little?" "Fuck, the plane flew directly into the island." "Don''t worry, the plane can also lay an egg, and in the end it depends on us to reap the results. With such a dense jungle, I don''t believe they can kill all the Japanese. " Although everyone felt it, the enemies on the island did not organize effective resistance at all. They may be facing no enemy defense at all. But this is war, and their training doesn''t allow them to mess around. So, although they were talking about it, the movements of their hands did not change in any way. After the shield advances to a reef that can provide cover, the team starts to leave the team one by one from the last fighter, hides on the reef and raises a gun to look for the enemy. Try to provide fire support to the soldiers who are still advancing ahead. Obviously, their actions were futile, because there were no enemies on the opposite side. But everyone still followed the training process to grab the beach. When each fighter felt that the fighter behind him had left the team, he patted himself with the hand on his body and signaled to leave the team. Next, it''s my turn to find a bunker and leave the team. Soon everyone found their respective bunkers on the landing plant, and the soldiers in the front row had dropped their heavy shields. We still haven''t found any enemy situation. Not far away, the sound of the bomber''s aerial bomb exploding was heard again. Obviously, the enemy was discovered by the bomber again. The marines are still landing according to their own tactical actions. The leader of the squad waved his hand, and the soldiers with new-style rifles and submachine guns took the lead out of the bunker and rushed to the shore. The comrades-in-arms with rifles covering behind them filled the gaps left by the comrades in front and back, while covering each other and rushing forward. The whole movement is smooth and smooth, with tacit cooperation, all of which are faithfully recorded by the camera. Covering and advancing all the way, the soldiers finally entered the jungle and infiltrated towards the place where the bombing sounded. But at this time, the Japanese actually had no fighting power. The last more than a hundred people were bombed again by the second batch of bombers led by Sam Dudley, and there were less than 30 enemies who could still stand normally. Hisaku Kobayashi knew they were screwed. But he is a veteran, he can not accept the fate of his failure. He is not a samurai, and there is no rib around him for him to commit seppuku. So, he can only choose to fight the enemy desperately. Looking at Shinichi Mizuno who was obviously collapsed beside him, Hisaku Kobayashi stepped forward and slapped him twice in the face. Whether it was Mizuno Shinyi or the Japanese around him, he was taken aback. All eyes focused on Hisaku Kobayashi. "Hachi! Mizuno-kun, do you want to be a coward? Our enemies are strong and we are doomed. But, are you willing to lie here in obscurity and wait to die? No, absolutely not allowed, we are the people of His Majesty Tianhuang, we are brave fighters. I don''t allow it. I didn''t even have a chance to shoot, so I died quietly. Believe me, the enemy infantry must have already landed. Even if we die, we will die on the way to charge. Let our enemies of the Japanese Empire know how terrible the warriors of His Majesty Tianhuang are. Everyone, check your weapons and follow me to meet the enemy. " After finishing speaking, he picked up a rifle that was still usable on the ground, and stuffed it into Mizuno Shinichi''s arms. Ignoring Mizuno Shingi''s reaction at all, Kobayashi Hisakuza looked like a trapped beast that had fallen into a trap. showed unprecedented fierce eyes. He walked up to every Japanese who didn''t look like he was going to die, and slapped or kicked him. Pushing the weapons beside them into his arms. These people are either dazed, numb, panicked, excited, timid, or weeping in pain. Expressions vary. However, everyone stood up unsteadily according to his request. There was a young man about 16 years old, crying in pain, "Mom! Mom!" After being heard by Hisaku Kobayashi, he slapped him four or five times in a row, making his face swell up. With fierce eyes, he grabbed his collar, and reprimanded him in a cold tone: "Let me hear you again, make such a cowardly cry, and I will shoot you straight away." After finishing speaking, he turned his head and looked around, looked at the Japanese around him, and said fiercely: "Everyone, bayonet. For His Majesty Tianhuang, we must die on the way to charge. If anyone dares to retreat, I will kill him with my own hands. " At this time, Kobayashi Hisaku is like a bloodthirsty wolf, not only cruel to the enemy, but even more cruel to his own people. Mizuno Xinyi has completely lost his spirit, and also lost the leadership of this team. The current wolf king is Hisaku Kobayashi. I don''t know whether Kobayashi Hisaku''s intimidation played a role, or it was because of their Majesty Tianhuang. These people actually slowly cheered up and began to check their weapons. A bayonet was fitted to the rifle. Seeing this situation, Hisaku Kobayashi nodded in satisfaction, and took the lead to lead everyone towards the sea. The two teams of people walking toward each other soon met in the jungle. I don''t know who discovered who first, and I don''t know which side fired first. But as the first gunshot started, the jungle began to resound with fierce firefights. On one side are the Japanese who are determined to die, and on the other side are the well-trained Brazilian Marines. In terms of combat effectiveness, the Japanese are obviously unable to compete with the Marine Corps. In terms of numbers, the Marine Corps is more than three times the number of the opponent. Therefore, a confrontation with disparity in strength. The battle lasted less than a quarter of an hour, and it was completely over. After being bombed, the chunky Mizuno Shingi has been in a state of confusion, not knowing what was going on in his mind. At this moment, he was lying under a big leafy tree, clutching his bleeding wound. Looking through the dense jungle, looking at the morning sun that has jumped out of the sea, as if seeing the Japanese flag. But the corner of his mouth was indeed not a smile, but a bitter expression. At this moment, he regretted very much in his heart. If he had known this, he should not have stayed in Brazil at all. Maybe returning to Japan is the real right choice. Less than five meters away from him, there was a gray-haired figure lying face-to-face. That was his former assistant Kobayashi Hisaku, and he no longer dared to look down on him at this time. This is a crazy guy. He knew that the other party was not dead yet, and he was holding three grenades in his arms. Needless to say, he also knew what the other party wanted to do. With the distance between himself and him, he will definitely be affected. Mizuno Shinichi knew he was going to die. There was no way this crazy old guy would let himself be caught by the Brazilians alive. As the organizer of this team, if he falls into the hands of the Brazilians alive. Everything they did before would be rendered meaningless and become a gigantic joke. But if I waited for others, I used my life to defend my honor at the last moment. People of future generations will surely commemorate the bravery of myself and others. Praise your own deeds, and establish yourself and others as a new hero. However, Mizuno Xinyi didn''t want to be a hero, he thought he could still save it. Since he has already surrendered once, he doesn''t mind surrendering again. My younger sister Mizuno Xiaoling is still in Brazil. With the strength of her sister''s husband''s family, she must be able to fish herself out of prison. At that time, I can continue to enjoy a good life. Instead of throwing away your life just to become this **** hero. Now, he just wants to live well, what Tianhuang, what empire, what honor, what hero is shit. Even the sun that looks like the Japanese flag in the sky should be the afterglow of the setting sun. In the jungle in the distance, several figures with weapons jumped nimbly in the jungle. Gunfire spewed out from the muzzle of the weapon in his hand from time to time. Mizuno Shingi knew that this was his last chance. Enduring the pain, he released the wound that was pressing on his abdomen, and raised his hands above his head. Noticing a soldier who was already aiming at him, moved the muzzle to the side. Mizuno Shingi breathed a sigh of relief, and wanted to remind the other party to pay attention to Kobayashi Hisaku who was not far away. But when he looked at Kobayashi Hisaku, he found that the other party turned his face lying on the ground to his side at some point. The blood-stained face had a ferocious expression, and a pair of eyes were fixed on him. As if to swallow myself alive. Xinyi Mizuno, who was bleeding continuously, felt a chill rise from his heart, and his body shivered involuntarily. Wanted to point at the opponent''s hand, but stopped unconsciously. Even the raised hands seemed to have lost their strength, and fell down in a slump. But when the two soldiers approached Kobayashi Hisaku, the opponent''s hand under him pulled violently. White smoke began to rise from under him. Mizuno Shinichi closed his eyes with a wry smile on his face, scolding all eighteen generations of Kobayashi Hisakusaku''s ancestors in his heart. Even Tianhuang, whom he believed in, was scolded by him for being so ungrateful. At this time, he suddenly realized that everything is false, and only when he is about to die is the truth. Hisaku Kobayashi, lying on the ground, waited for three seconds, then turned over suddenly. revealed the smoked grenade in his arms. The two commando fighters who had just walked up to him were startled. Wanted to turn around and dodge, but it was too late. There was a loud bang, and shrapnel flew horizontally within a range of more than ten meters, shooting all around. When all the dust settled, Hisaku Kobayashi had disappeared. Two commandos were also overturned to the ground and lost their lives. Xinyi Mizuno, who was leaning on the tree, was covered in blood and was covered with minced meat. Blood was spitting out of his mouth. I heard Portuguese shouting loudly in my ears: "Bastards! These **** Japanese runts. Everyone, be careful of the enemy''s suicide attack, and shoot all the enemies. Don''t live. " Mizuno Shingi let out a miserable smile, and closed his eyes weakly. At noon, Fang Lang, who was sitting on the bridge of the aircraft carrier, received a report from his subordinates. "Your Excellency, our army has completely recovered the Fernando de Noronha Islands and wiped out the invading enemies." The intelligence officer stood beside Fang Lang and saluted. Fang Lang nodded, and asked casually: "How are the casualties?" "In this battle, five people were killed in our army, and sixteen people were lightly or seriously wounded." Hearing this, Fang Lang frowned, and said dissatisfiedly: "What''s the situation, five people were killed against a group of untrained farmers?" "Your Excellency, four of us were killed by enemy suicide attacks and one by stray bullets. These little Japanese guys are just crazy. Several people rang the grenades on their bodies, wanting to die with our soldiers. If the soldiers hadn''t responded in a timely manner and fired at all the corpses, there might have been more casualties. " Fang Lang sighed softly. He knew that the Japanese were crazy, but he didn''t expect that these Japanese farmers far away in Brazil were as crazy as the Japanese who had been educated in Japanese militarism. I was also careless, and I should have reminded the soldiers to guard against the Japanese. In fact, Fang Lang just thought about using incendiary bombs directly to burn the Japanese on the island to death. But considering that this is Brazil''s own territory after all, I don''t want to damage the island''s environment too much. I am also worried that some people in the country will make a fuss about this cruel weapon. didn''t use it, I didn''t expect these little Japanese to cause casualties to their troops. It seems that you really can''t underestimate it, any Japanese! When dealing with the Japanese in the future, we must be more careful and cruel. Sighed, Fang Lang explained to De La Torre beside him: "Contain the remains of our soldiers, they are heroes who died on the battlefield against aggression. Provide double death benefits to their families. Arrange their families to work in a factory and find an easier job. Don''t let our soldiers shed blood and tears. " The soldiers on the bridge were all moved. Della Torre stood at attention and saluted, and loudly took orders: "Yes, boss!" The Brazilian army has a corresponding pension standard for dead soldiers, that is, a sum of money is given. No officer has ever cared about what would happen to the family''s life after the soldiers died. Because Brazilian lives are not worth much. So, Fang Lang''s arrangement seemed very unique in Brazil, and it moved the soldiers, and Fang Lang was even more determined. When the battle was completely over, the soldiers rushed into the Japanese camp that had been bombed to pieces. Under the witness of the camera, a particularly dazzling Japanese flag was lowered. The Brazilian flag was hoisted. These will become important material for tomorrow''s TV news. (end of this chapter) Chapter 357: award Chapter 357 Commendation Rio de Janeiro Ministry of Defense. A group of senior officials of the Brazilian government are paying attention to the situation on the battlefield in the Department of Defense Operations. When Fang Lang sent back the news that Fernando de Noronha was successfully recovered, everyone applauded in unison. Although, everyone has expected this, and it will not be a surprise. However, for politicians, it is still possible to write a big book about eliminating an incident of aggression in such a short period of time. "Mr. President, the military is lucky to live up to its fate, After 6 hours of fighting, the territory occupied by the Japanese was successfully recovered. " General Morais faced President Dutra with a serious expression, stood at attention and saluted and reported. President Dutra nodded with satisfaction and said: "I am still very relieved about the military''s combat effectiveness. This time, the Rio de Janeiro aircraft carrier battle group was able to detect the enemy''s violation of our territory in time, and made active countermeasures at the first time, Completely wiped out the invading enemy in a short period of time, all of which show that our Brazilian army is an excellent army with combat effectiveness. Very good, I am very satisfied! I am also very satisfied with General Fang Lang''s performance. I hope that your Ministry of Defense will come up with a generous reward plan, To commend the combat effectiveness and achievements of the newly formed new force of the Rio de Janeiro aircraft carrier battle group. On behalf of the government, I will award General Fang Lang the National Medal of Honor in recognition of his great contributions to the country. " Many officials in the Ministry of National Defense leaked envy. The Brazilian National Medal of Honor is the highest medal of honor in Brazil, and it is generally only awarded to those who have made great contributions to the country. I didn''t expect Fang Lang, a Chinese, to win this honor. "Please rest assured Mr. President, Our military also recognizes the ability of General Fang Lang. The Brazilian Navy is able to have the current aircraft carrier fleet, thanks to General Fang. This time, our military will definitely commend the outstanding performance of the army led by General Fang. " Hearing the Minister of Defense''s statement, President Dutra nodded with satisfaction. continued: "In this incident, the Eddie family sent the enemy to the destination and provided them with weapons and equipment. Must be dealt with seriously. For such individuals or organizations that betray national interests and betray the country, We have to come up with a specific plan. Give an explanation to all Brazilian citizens. " Among the senior government officials who followed Mr. President to the Ministry of Defense, there are the Minister and Deputy Minister of the Ministry of Justice. At this moment, their faces are the most ugly, Because the influence of the Eddie family in the Ministry of Justice is deeply rooted, everyone has some friendship with each other. But now, what the other party has done has made everyone who has friendship with them fall into a passive position. The entire Ministry of Justice is now facing the same scrutiny from other government departments, Including now in the Ministry of Defense, their positions are very embarrassing. Mr. President''s words are the final conclusion for the Eddie family. Everyone knows that this family will never have any political future. As long as there is any connection with them or the family may be involved in a lot. In this case, anyone with a brain would immediately choose to draw a clear line with the other party. So, without waiting for others to speak, the Minister of Justice took the lead in saying: "Mr. President, I am very saddened to see such a scum in our country. I suggest that this family should be court-martialed, Directly sentence the opponent to treason. The relationship between the Eddie family in the police system is intricate. According to the investigation, the police chief of Recife participated in the matchmaking in this arms transaction. We should severely crack down on such civil servants participating in illegal and criminal actions. The Ministry of Justice has decided to conduct a major overhaul of the national police system. Ensure the integrity of the policing system. " The meaning is very clear, that is, to remove the influence of the Eddie family in the entire police system. to eliminate the Eddie family''s political influence. Everyone present had different expressions, and they were all thinking about whether this matter was good or bad, and whether they could get any benefit from it. President Dutra frowned after hearing the Attorney General''s statement. It''s not that he doesn''t want to rectify the police system, but if he really follows the method of the Minister of Justice, there will be a major rectification. Maybe it will mess up the entire police system. This is very detrimental to the stability of the country''s social order. But it is imperative to eradicate the influence of the Eddie family in the police system. For a moment, he was still a little uncertain, and his eyes accidentally swept down the combat map hanging on the wall. At this moment, many red arrows are pointing from Natal to Fernando de Noronha Islands. But the name of Natal moved his heart. He still remembered the last time he went to Natal to attend the commissioning ceremony of the aircraft carrier, When discussing the changes in Natal with Mayor Ewald Dursley of Natal, the other party said that General Fang Lang was in the military administration of Natal. It was discovered that the local police in Natal was controlled by the local Yakubu family, colluding with black and white, and lawlessness. Later, Fang Lang not only eradicated this evil Yakubu family. also reformed the local police system and opened a police school. The social security of the entire Natal has undergone earth-shaking changes. Thinking of this, he coughed twice and said: "I agree with your Ministry of Justice''s initiative to rectify the police system. However, the direct rectification action you proposed, I have reservations. As far as I know, the backbone of the Brazilian police system are all former protgs of Craig Eddie. If the cleanup is carried out regardless, it may paralyze our entire police system in Brazil. This will have a very adverse impact on social security. Here I have a small proposal, I suggest that you can ask General Fang Lang for advice. Maybe he has a solution to your problem. " General Fang Lang, many of you may not have seen it. However, I dont know who he is here, probably not, because everyone gathered here today to watch General Fang Lang command his own aircraft carrier fleet and destroy the invaders. It is precisely because everyone knows who General Fang Lang is. After hearing what President Dutra said, everyone was a little confused. Seeing that everyone was full of question marks and looked at him with puzzled faces, President Dutra smiled and said: "Don''t look at me with this expression, I didn''t say the wrong person, You didn''t hear me wrong. What I''m talking about is the rear admiral who just commanded this annihilation battle, General Fang Lang. The reason why I asked your Ministry of Justice to ask General Fang Lang for advice is because General Fang Lang was in Natal during the military administration, found a big problem with the local police station, But this problem was quickly and completely solved by General Fang. Since then, social security in Natal has undergone earth-shaking changes. The mayor of Natal, Mr. Ewald Dursley, highly praised this. It is believed that General Fang has brought new life to Natal. So, dont think that General Fang is just a simple military general. His ability in governing the local area is not inferior, and it is worth learning for all of us. " Now, even the senior officers of the Ministry of National Defense are in disbelief. They never imagined that a rear admiral would get such a high evaluation from Mr. President. The Minister of Justice was thinking secretly in his heart, whether Mr. President really simply asked himself to ask General Fang for advice, or did he have other hints. After all, no matter who it is, it is unreliable to ask an admiral for advice on how to rectify the police system. It can only show that Mr. President has something to say. While the Attorney General was still trying to figure out what the President wanted, the Secretary of the Navy, General Crook, said leisurely: "If the Minister of Justice wants to ask General Fang for advice, it is best to solve the assassination case of General Fang first. I heard that the only living murderer was silenced during the transfer process by the Ministry of Justice! It has been so long, and there is still no clear result from the investigation department. The efficiency of the Ministry of Justice is really worrying. " This kind of behavior of exposing people''s scars in public is really not the work of a gentleman. But General Crook admired Fang Lang at first, and his fishing boat is now a shareholder of the fishing company established by Fang Lang. It has developed rapidly and made a lot of money. The two have become dear relatives and friends. Fang Lang''s outstanding performance this time has really shown the Navy a big face. As the upper leadership of the police system controlled by the Eddie family who committed treason, The Attorney General wanted to claim to rectify the police system and remove himself from this matter, which made General Crook very dissatisfied. The investigation team that the Ministry of Justice sent him to investigate Fang Lang''s assassination was directly kicked out. During the process of transferring the murderer, the only living murderer was silenced. Turning his head, he also suspected that the personnel of the Navy and other investigation teams had leaked secrets, and internally screened them. But what about the result? No problems were found. However, the investigation of the assassination case has come to a standstill, and there is still no clear statement. This made General Crook very dissatisfied with the Department of Justice. So, directly mocking in the public. After hearing this, the Minister of Justice turned pale, but he couldn''t refute it. The other party is the Minister of the Navy. Although in name, the Minister of Justice and the Minister of Defense are at the same level, the other party belongs to the Ministry of Defense and is one level lower than himself. But everyone knows that the military is a very independent and violent institution, completely different from government agencies. If the other party doesn''t give me face, I have nothing to do with the other party. Just when he was a little bit annoyed, Fuzhi suddenly had a flash of inspiration, as if he had caught something? Mr. President asked him to consult General Fang Lang''s hint, would it be related to this assassination case? After all, there is a senior police officer among the assassins. General Crook''s words made the entire combat hall become abuzz with discussions, and all the government officials were whispering to each other. The face of the entire judicial system can be regarded as being rubbed back and forth on the ground. In this case, no matter what the Minister of Justice has in mind, he does not need to respond immediately. Silence can only make things more out of hand. So, the Minister of Justice squeezed out a smile and said: "Thanks to General Crook for the friendly reminder that the investigation of this case has actually made some progress. The former Sao Paulo Police Chief Sebastio Hodges has voluntarily pleaded guilty, admitting that the assassination was planned by his ship. There will be a detailed case report within this month, Please be patient, General Crook. " After finishing speaking, he nodded to President Dutra and said: "Mr. President, we will immediately arrange a professional investigation team after our Ministry of Justice returns. Go to the Natal region to investigate and study the local police system. I will also visit General Fang Lang personally, and ask General Fang for his experience in rectifying the police system. Strive to complete the cleaning of the police system while ensuring the overall stability of the police system. " Regardless of whether what the Minister of Justice said is true or not, it is impossible for everyone to continue to entangle in this matter. After hearing the Attorney General''s answer, General Crook just shrugged indifferently. is a response. After being reminded by Crook, Mr. President also remembered the assassination case. The Minister of Justice said that the murderer was Hodges, but he was a little surprised. As far as he knows, this Hodges is Fang Lang''s friend. Everyone thought the other party was a scapegoat at first, but now that he has pleaded guilty, he still feels a little puzzled. But seeing a group of important government officials around, it is obviously not the right time to continue discussing this issue. Therefore, I can only press no and let the Minister of Justice report separately after returning to the presidential palace. He is satisfied with the Ministry of Justice''s plan to arrange an inspection team to go to Natal for inspection. nodded and said: "Very good, since I hope you can seriously investigate, sincerely ask for advice. Let us see the results ASAP. " Then Mr. President turned to General Morais and asked: "General Morais, regarding the Minister of Justice''s proposal to send the Eddie family to a military court, What do you think? Also, has that **** Raymond Eddie confessed to being ordered. " General Morais glanced at the Minister of Justice, and said unhurriedly: "Mr. President, we at the Department of Defense have no complaints, This kind of crime of secession is indeed no longer suitable for ordinary police investigation and court trial. Our Department of Defense has arrested Raymond Eddie and the entire Eddie family in accordance with the order of the President. After these two days of investigation and interrogation, we have made some very good progress. Raymond Eddy confesses to his crimes, and we get two more windfalls from him. " A gleam flashed in President Dutra''s eyes, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly, and then quickly disappeared. asked with great interest: "Oh? Two more windfalls?" "Yes, Mr. President, During the interrogation, Raymond Eddie, in addition to confessing the crime of secession this time. He also voluntarily confessed that his father, Craig Eddie, was instigated by Japanese spy Mizuno Xiaoling, and participated in the organization and implementation of the Japanese mob attack on the presidential palace. " General Morais said with a serious expression and a heavy tone. Before he finished speaking, the entire battle hall boiled like a frying pan. All the senior officials of the Brazilian government never expected that such explosive news would be thrown out directly, and everyone was obviously not prepared. President Dutra was overjoyed, but with a shocked expression on his face, he exclaimed: "What? This incident also involved the Eddie family, **** it, these bastards. I also regarded Craig Eddie as a hero who died for his country, but he was the one behind the scene. Damn it, I should hang their whole family. This **** bastard! He even betrayed his country for a **** Japanese woman. Wait, you said that Japanese woman named Mizuno Xiaoling is a spy? " (end of this chapter) Chapter 358: Chapter 358 Seeing President Dutra''s distraught look, General Morais unconsciously gave a thumbs up in his heart. No wonder you guy went from Secretary of Army to President of Brazil. You really have amazing acting skills. If you didn''t order me to put this matter on the Eddie family, I would have almost believed it. President Dutra is also very satisfied with General Morais at the moment. As expected, the Minister of Defense appointed by me personally announced this matter under such circumstances. In this way, there is no need for deliberate propaganda at all. The entire Brazilian government knows that the Japanese mob stormed the presidential palace and has nothing to do with Dutra. Everything was done by the **** Eddie family. Even better, the motives of both opponents are so convincing. That Japanese female spy named Mizuno Xiaoling really makes the best use of everything she has! "Yes, Mr. President, According to Raymond Eddy''s confession, this Japanese woman named Mizuno Xiaoling is a Japanese spy. " General Morais still had a calm expression on his face, and he nodded seriously to President Dutra in reply. President Dutra slammed his fist on the table in front of him, gritted his teeth and said: "These damned Japanese, sending so many spies to our country, What the **** are they trying to do? " The surrounding government officials also looked ugly, and the Minister of Justice even gritted his teeth and said: "No wonder the Eddie family would do such a thing, it turns out that they are spies at all. Looks like we''ve all been fooled by them. " These words are obviously intended to tell everyone that it is not that there is a problem with our Ministry of Justice itself, but that the enemy is too cunning. The Eddie family itself is a spy family, and the Ministry of Justice is blinded. At this time, he still didn''t forget to pick himself out, which made other people curl their lips. General Morais looked at the Attorney General with a trace of disdain on his face. Continue to report: "In addition to this matter, Raymond Eddy confessed to one more thing. But now, I''m not sure if this is true. May require further careful investigation. " Hearing this, President Dutra frowned. The guilt of the Japanese mob attacking the presidential palace has been placed on the Eddie family. Why is another thing popping up now. Could it be that the Ministry of Defense still has any crimes that need to be borne by the Eddie family? Probably not! He has not heard of any remarks that are not conducive to the Minister of Defense! After looking up and down at General Morais, he said with lingering anger: "What? What else did he confess, how could he be uncertain?" With a light cough, General Morais glanced at the Attorney General and said: "Because the matter he confessed is somewhat different from what Mr. Justice Minister just reported? So, I''m not sure if his confession is true or not. " It''s not just Mr. President who is frowning. All the leaders of the Ministry of Justice frowned, not understanding what General Morais meant. Mr. Minister was even more sweaty on his forehead, and began to think carefully about what he had just reported, which was actually different from what Raymond Eddie confessed. Wouldnt it be your Ministry of Justice and other potential spies? Or is the influence of the Eddie family not only in the police system? For a moment, Mr. Minister of Justice''s heart rose, and he swallowed with difficulty. Then his heart tightened, no way! It can''t be such a coincidence! The situation notified just now is not about the assassination of General Fang Lang! This Eddie family should have nothing to do with General Fang Lang! It doesn''t make sense that the other party would participate in the assassination of General Fang Lang! Could it be that Director Hodges was really just a scapegoat, beaten into a trick by his own investigation team? Thinking of this, the Attorney General feels bad. President Dutra''s curiosity was aroused, and he said with a puzzled look: "Oh! Since he confessed, you want to say it, let us refer to it." General Morais glanced at the crowd, then at the Minister of Justice who was sweating on his forehead, and said slowly: "According to Raymond Eddy''s account, this Japanese spy named Mizuno Xiaoling was given to Craig Eddie by a man named Yakubu. And this guy named Yakubu was the former deputy chief of the Natal Police Department. During the period when General Fang was in charge of Natal, the Yakub family was completely eradicated by General Fang, and the local police system was reorganized. This behavior made Raymond Eddie feel offended, so he organized and planned an assassination operation against General Fang. Unfortunately, this operation was unsuccessful and General Fang dodged it. " When everyone heard this, they all looked at Mr. Minister of Justice. At this time, Mr. Minister of Justice, he can''t wait to find a hole in the ground and get into it. In my heart, I have long scolded everyone in the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice. Duzhong even murmured: "Ah! This... The following investigation team did report it, Which director named Hodges pleaded guilty on his own initiative! " "I''m afraid I was beaten into a trick!" "If you want to confess your guilt, you have already confessed! Why wait until now!" "That''s right, as long as you are not blind, you can see such a simple framing. But the people in the Ministry of Justice are just pretending to be deaf and dumb." "It means that there are also members of the Eddie family in the Ministry of Justice!" "Who says no! You must know that Craig Eddy has served as the Deputy Minister of Justice." "I heard that as soon as the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice took over the investigation, the only suspect who was captured alive was silenced." "This shows that the Ministry of Justice also has problems!" The people around him hesitated to insert a sharp knife into the wound of the Minister of Justice, causing a mouthful of old blood to get stuck in his throat, and he almost vomited blood. Fortunately, Mr. President does not want to replace his Attorney General now, so he coughed twice: "Ahem! Alright, everyone be quiet. It seems that this Raymond Eddie is quite honest, and the assassination case of General Fang has been solved. At the beginning, General Fang was assassinated by someone arranged by him, but now he is fine, the assassination failed, but he himself bumped into General Fang''s hand. This can be regarded as the reincarnation of heaven. Now that Raymond Eddy has confessed to his crimes, Then we should hurry up and convene a military court as soon as possible to hear his case. " Just when President Dutra wanted to end the topic here, the Deputy Minister of Justice, who had been silent all this time, stepped forward and whispered something in the Minister''s ear. The Minister of Justice, who was sweating profusely and died on the spot, rolled his eyes after hearing the words of the Deputy Minister, and looked at him with some surprise. Seeing the other party nodding towards himself. The Minister of Justice gritted his teeth and said again: "Mr. President, I heard that this Eddie family, in addition to this Raymond Eddie, also has a big brother named Brisso Eddie. This Brisso Eddie did not work in the government, but served as the Secretary-General of the Labor Party. Won the trust of Mr. Vargas, the chairman of the Labor Party, should we also announce this situation to the public? " As soon as President Dutra heard this, he immediately understood what the other party wanted to express. Obviously, they want to use this matter to attack the opposition Labor Party and weaken the current political advantage of the Labor Party''s rapid rise. President Dutra had known about Brisso Eddie''s situation for a long time, and this guy had already been arrested and interrogated by the intelligence agency. Just don''t know whether the other party is involved in these things. However, since he has been arrested, there must be no reason to release him, otherwise he would not simply say that the Eddie family is treasonous. The officials of this government are all non-Labor Party members, and everyone is in the same position on issues against the Labor Party. So, upon hearing this, Mr. President did not express any opinion, but other officials have already begun to talk about it. Mr. President knows that he should express his opinion at this time, otherwise letting the people below act indiscriminately may cause unnecessary confusion. Therefore, with a light cough: "I know this Mr. Brisso Eddie, he is a very capable secretary-general. He was also among those arrested this time, General Morais, I wonder if this Mr. Brisso Eddie was involved in these things after your investigation? " The military does not join any political parties, so generally speaking, the military''s investigation results are quite convincing. Hearing President Dutra''s question, General Morais nodded and replied: "After our investigation, we have not found that this Mr. Brisso Eddie was involved in these cases. According to Raymond Eddy, his brother was also unaware of these circumstances. " This made President Dutra frown, but he never thought about what he would do to the Labor Party through this Briso Eddie, At most, this Brisso Eddie will be eradicated to weaken the power of the Labor Party. But hearing the results of this investigation now, it made him feel a little wrong. Under the same roof, his father has problems, his younger brother has problems, how could he have no problems? This is unreasonable. smiled and said: "It seems that this Raymond Eddie is planning to take all the blame on himself! Don''t they understand that once someone in the family commits treason or espionage, it is considered that other family members are not involved. Didn''t have any chance to get involved in politics either? " Since Mr. President wants to blame Krech Eddie for the Japanese mob''s attack on the presidential palace, it is impossible to allow his eldest son to be safe and sound. The reason why he didn''t want to use Brisso Eddie''s status in the Labor Party to attack the Labor Party was because he wanted to control the impact of this matter within a controllable range. The chairman of the Labor Party was the previous President Vargas, although Vargas was ousted by the National League and the Social Democratic Party for manipulating the election. But this does not mean that President Vargas'' influence in the government has declined. On the contrary, the recent Labor Party has been very active, showing faint signs of resurgence. In this case, President Dutra does not want to turn this matter into a political struggle between parties. Maybe this government will have a bad reputation for suppressing other parties. But this Brisso Eddie said that he knew nothing about these things, don''t say Mr. President believes it or not. Even if he believed it, he couldn''t possibly allow Briso Eddie to pick him out. After all, he knew very well in his heart that the so-called Craig Eddie organization participated in the implementation of the Japanese mob siege of the presidential palace, which was simply imposed by him at the Ministry of National Defense. Once this Briso Eddie leaves prison, there may be some unnecessary troubles. General Morais obviously understood what President Dutra meant, so he continued to speak calmly: Just because Brisso Eddie hasnt found any problems yet doesnt mean he really doesnt have any problems. Although, Raymond Eddie took all the blame on himself. But according to the results we got from Boots David, the butler of the Eddie family, there are quite a few problems with Brisso Eddie. " As for the specific question, General Morais didn''t say any more. President Dutra did not ask again, The current situation is obvious, how can such a political family have absolutely clean people. Some things cannot withstand investigation, let an intelligence agency specifically find problems from a person, and convict this person. It couldn''t be easier. Nodding, President Dutra understood: "Since the problem has been found, let''s check it out. Such a treasonous family, we will never allow anyone to escape sanctions and get away with it. Understand? " "Yes, Mr. President!" General Morais nodded without hesitation. If it was something else, he wouldn''t get too involved too deeply. But when it comes to treason, he will never allow such a person to escape punishment alive. If President Dutra wants to let him go into the water, use this matter to set off party disputes, he will definitely not agree. But what the other party meant was obviously just to target the Eddie family, so their goals were the same. So, he nodded without hesitation. Just when a group of bigwigs were discussing how to reward Fang Lang and punish the Eddie family in the war room of the Ministry of National Defense. Fang Lang, accompanied by a group of naval generals, has landed on the Fernando de Noronha Islands. Looking at a messy battlefield, and the soldiers who are cleaning the battlefield. Fang Lang said with emotion: "It''s a waste of such a big island to be used as an exile for prisoners. The location of this island is very important. Although there is no suitable deep-water port, it is impossible to park large warships. However, it is not a big problem to park some small fishing boats. We can blast and expand this small port, so that our fishing boats can stop here for supplies and go deeper into the ocean. At the same time, we can build a military airport here as a transfer station for our aircraft, If we make good use of it, the cruising range of our aircraft will go deep into the Atlantic Ocean, and get stuck in the North Atlantic and South Atlantic waterways. Expand our Brazilian presence in the Atlantic. Della Torre, your staff should carefully consider this issue and come up with a feasible plan. When the time comes, form a document and submit it to the Ministry of Defense. " Actually, this is not the first time Fang Lang has proposed such an idea. Unfortunately, this place does not belong to their jurisdiction, so it is difficult for them to intervene. But the situation is different now. Since the island was recovered by them, they still have to station on the island and clean up the remnants of the enemies on the island. More importantly, after this incident, the police headquarters probably will not continue to leave this island as a place of exile. This is a good opportunity for him to implement his plan. (end of this chapter) Chapter 359: after the war Chapter 359 After the war After receiving Fang Lang''s instructions, Chief of Staff de la Torre naturally nodded. "Yes, boss, I think the Ministry of National Defense will definitely support our proposal this time. Even if we dont mention it, the Ministry of National Defense will definitely ask us to arrange troops on the island. After all, no one wants to make such a mess again. " This is true. This incident will definitely alert the Brazilian government. A large island is isolated overseas, and they dont even send troops. Next time something like this happens, it will be difficult to explain to the public. "Hehe. This is the best. I think the scenery on this island is very good! The sea water is so clear that some holiday cottages can be built on the island in the future. Give our fleet members a chance to come and relax! " Fang Lang knew that this was one of the very famous tourist attractions in Brazil in later generations, so he spoke directly and won a resort for the military members of his fleet. Everyone talked and laughed all the way, and soon came to the original Japanese camp, looking at the camp that had been bombed into ruins. Fang Lang said with emotion: "Fortunately, we have air superiority, and directly use bombers to bombard these bastards. Destroyed the enemy directly, otherwise if we rely on the marines to land on the beach, we will definitely have to pay a lot of casualties. This time we have an absolute advantage, but there are still casualties, which should not be. After returning, let the soldiers sum up the experience of this battle. Look for the problems exposed this time to avoid repeating them in the future. At least I feel that everyone is too eager, and the cooperation between the open space and the ground is not coordinated. It is clear that the second batch of aviation is planned to be used to support the Marine Corps'' attack at any time. As a result, these guys rushed up first by themselves, bombarding the enemy wildly. The cooperation between the Marine Corps and the Air Force when attacking is completely out of touch. In the future, it is necessary to focus on training air-ground coordination projects, so that marines can get used to seeking support from aviation when encountering difficult bones. " Della Torre on the side also said with emotion: "I was born in the navy, so I didn''t know the tactics of the army, let alone the tactics of the air force. However, after communicating with American instructors during this period, I also had a preliminary concept. But listening to them, there are still many things that I don''t understand. Today''s battle was an eye-opener for me. It seems that the future battlefield may be dominated by the Air Force! At the beginning, you insisted repeatedly that you must have your own aircraft carrier. I didn''t really understand it, but now I understand your strategic vision. " Fang Lang heard the words, patted him on the shoulder, nodded in approval and said: "I also made up my mind after seeing the powerful combat effectiveness of the aircraft on the Pacific battlefield. You are from the navy, and I am from the army. The army we have now is a powerful military force that integrates the three services of sea, land and air. We all have to study hard, learn to reflect and summarize. Cannot be divorced from advanced military concepts. Now we are learning from one of the most powerful military forces in the world, but it is not enough. Although American products are advanced, they are really expensive. We have no way to burn money like them, so after we have mastered their ideas and gameplay, we have to start exploring some of our own. So, after we go back, we must set off an atmosphere of active learning in the entire fleet. Whether it is military management or soldiers, they must start learning after training. Only by learning can we become a smart army, and only by being smart can we win more battles. " Della Torre nodded in agreement, and said seriously to Fang Lang: "Boss, don''t worry! We will definitely implement your ideas carefully. Guaranteed to make our fleet the most effective force in Brazil. " Since he is leading troops to fight, of course Fang Lang wants to lead a force with strong combat effectiveness. Therefore, Fang Lang has very strict requirements on the training of the troops. Hiring the American instructor corps, the basic training of the Marine Corps took up to six months, which shows his expectations for the combat effectiveness of the army. It''s a pity that he is a hands-off shopkeeper, and he is used to making his own requests and handing over specific matters to the people below to implement them. And de la Torre is his most important assistant. Hearing the other party''s statement, he nodded in satisfaction. Looked at the Brazilian flag flying on the flagpole of the camp, then looked at the surrounding environment, and asked: "This is Gou Ri''s, the flagpole where Little Japan hangs the national flag? I didn''t expect the flagpole to persist even after the surrounding area was blown up like this. This is deliberately left to hang the national flag for us! " Turned his head to look at Duarte who was aside and said: "Did you have a video when you lowered the Japanese flag and raised our national flag? This is a historic moment. " Duarte''s face was always not very good-looking, and he managed to grab the attack mission, but when the first battalion of the marines landed, the battle was over. They can only come up to perform the task of cleaning the battlefield. After hearing Fang Lang''s question, he stood at attention and saluted: "Boss, please rest assured! The photographer went to the island with the commando. When the commando occupied the Japanese camp, the photographer took pictures of the whole process. The scenes of taking down the Japanese flag and raising our Brazilian flag are fully documented. " Looking at the other party''s expression, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Why, judging by the way you look, I''m not very happy that I didn''t win the battle!" Duarte was trained by Fang Lang to help him become an officer of the Marine Corps, It turned out that when he was on the destroyer House, he led the sailors and rescued the British destroyer controlled by the Germans. He was a capable marine officer. After hearing Fang Lang''s question, Duarte smiled a little embarrassedly. "No, no, it''s just that these Japanese dwarfs are a little rough, When we came up, they had been cleaned up by the commando brothers. " Although he said no, it was obvious that he was not satisfied with not getting the battle. Fang Lang glanced at him, and said seriously: "The performance of the commando team this time is generally not bad, basically meeting the training requirements. But it also exposed many problems. Facing a group of untrained Japanese civilians, it is really unreasonable to pay the price of five deaths. Tell me, why did this happen? " Looking at Fang Lang''s serious expression, Duarte quickly adjusted his mood, raised his head and chest to Fang Lang, and said seriously: "Yes, boss, According to what I learned from the commandos, the team members did not encounter enemy blocking in the early stage, which made them relax their vigilance. The aviation bombing of the remaining Japanese made them anxious. Did not strictly follow the tactical actions, which caused loopholes in the offensive formation and gave the Japanese a chance to die together. In addition, everyone is not familiar with the terrain and environment here, so there are loopholes in everyone''s cooperation. " Nodding his head, Fang Lang said slowly: Its not bad to be able to spot your mistakes. After going back, let everyone summarize by themselves and discuss the methods to see if there is any way to avoid the same problem next time. In addition, we must pay attention to the question you raised about the unfamiliar environment and terrain. A lot of terrain on our side is jungle. The performance of our soldiers this time is obviously not familiar with jungle warfare. Of course, this has something to do with the training we receive from American instructors. Their tactics do not include jungle warfare tactics. But we have a huge Amazon jungle in Brazil. In the future, the main battlefield of our army may also be the jungle, so the Marine Corps should focus on studying what jungle warfare is like. Carry out more targeted training. There are many excellent hunters in the Amazon jungle. We need to recruit some excellent hunters to teach our soldiers how to survive and fight in the jungle. must not appear again on our own territory, with unfamiliar environments and terrain. In the end, we must form our own set of jungle warfare theories and tactics. " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Duarte nodded again and again, especially when he heard that he would consult an excellent hunter living in the Amazon jungle, which made his eyes shine. quickly stood at attention and took orders. A messy battlefield, there is not much to see, After Fang Lang walked around the Japanese camp, accompanied by everyone, he left the island and returned to the warship. The first battalion of the Marine Corps who did not win the battle stayed on the island to clean up the remnants of the enemy, and then led the fleet to withdraw to Natal. Early the next morning, the video of the battle was broadcast on Brazilian TV. When the Brazilian people saw the powerful aircraft carrier fleet launching an attack on the island, all of them were excited. In the past, everyone could only see boring words and descriptions of the cruelty of war from newspapers. But this time the powerful aircraft carrier fleet on the TV, each plane took off from the deck of the aircraft carrier, Flying from the air to the camp with the Japanese flag, dropping one after another aerial bombs, causing a big explosion that soared into the sky. Looking at the battlefield that was blown up into chaos in the blink of an eye, everyone was shocked. Immediately afterwards, the naval guns on the warship aimed at each other, fired round after round, and the flames sprayed from the muzzle. This shocking scene made all the men tremble with excitement. I can''t wait to be in it and become a naval soldier. Then the marines, escorted by landing craft, rushed onto the beach. Under the cover of their shields, the soldiers performed a series of tactical actions, which made everyone look incomprehensible, but they just thought it was very powerful. The scene of shooting and exchanging fire with the Japanese in the jungle made everyone terrified and worried. Finally, after the victory of the war, when the soldiers tore down the Japanese flag and raised the Brazilian flag, all the people cheered, sang and danced. The enthusiastic Brazilian girl danced the samba to express her excitement. The people also joined in one after another, and the place where the TV was placed became a sea of ??joy for people. In contrast, the entire Eddie family has become a shame for the whole of Brazil, almost to the point where everyone shouts and beats them. The policemen who were closely related to the Eddie family also fell into deep panic. Because, just yesterday, the news that the Minister of Justice proposed to Mr. President to rectify the national police system has spread. Everyone is very worried about being liquidated. For a while, people were panicked. The investigation team of the Ministry of Justice led by the Minister of Justice took a special plane early in the morning and flew to Natal, a very inconspicuous small city in Brazil. Fang Lang, who had just returned to the Natal Naval Base, received the news immediately. After finishing the finishing work after the army goes out. Fang Lang hosted a banquet for Minister of Justice Carles Cayo at the Chinese restaurant Deyilou in Natal. "General Fang, thank you very much for your hospitality. First, on behalf of the Department of Justice, I want to apologize! " Mr. Minister put on a very low attitude as soon as he opened his mouth, and he couldn''t see the airs of the real power faction in Brazil at all. Fang Lang didn''t expect this situation, Fang Lang hurriedly said modestly: "Minister Kayo, you are too polite, if I remember correctly, we should meet for the first time. You don''t have anything to say sorry to me! Don''t discourage me, a young man. " Minister Carles Cayo heard Fang Lang''s answer, thinking that the other party didn''t know that it was the Eddie family who assassinated the other party. So, after holding hands and hugging each other, he said: "General Fang, I apologize to you for a reason, Regarding your last assassination case in Sao Paulo, our Ministry of Justice has been taking over the investigation. But time has passed for so long, and there has been no progress. This is the responsibility of our Department of Justice, and on behalf of our entire Department of Justice, I must apologize. " Fang Lang laughed when he heard this, pointed to the main seat of the table and said: "Mr. Minister is joking, the investigation of this case is very difficult. I know very well, so I don''t blame you. It''s not worth the Minister''s trip today. " In fact, Fang Lang had received news from General Crook a long time ago, and had a clear understanding of the main purpose of the Minister of Justice''s visit. But he will not, take the initiative to provoke the topic inside. So, I chose to play dumb. The Minister of Justice smiled awkwardly and said: "This time, first of all, I want to inform you about the progress of the investigation of this case. According to the confession made by Raymond Eddie, he organized and planned your assassination, At that time, the commander who organized the gang members to ambush at the scene was his bodyguard. " "What? Is it Raymond Eddie who assassinated me? It doesn''t make sense! I don''t know him at all! "Fang Lang looked at Minister Carles Kayo in disbelief and said. Calus Cayo didn''t know whether Fang Lang really didn''t know or if he didn''t know. You must know that this matter was not investigated by their Ministry of Justice. Even if Fang Lang doesn''t know what''s going on now, he will soon receive news that it was the Brazilian Intelligence Agency who investigated the truth. So, this credit should definitely not be recognized by Carles Cayo. He could only nod his head in embarrassment and said: "Yes! We didn''t expect that this crazy guy would dare to attack you. As his superior, I must express my apologies to you. " Fang Lang waved his hands with a puzzled expression and said: "Minister Kayo, is there some misunderstanding here! I have never had any interaction with this Mr. Raymond Eddy. The other party would have someone assassinate me for no reason! " The reason why Fang Lang wanted to play dumb in front of Minister Carles Cayo was to downplay his own influence in this matter. After all, in the past few days, successive news reports have been targeting Raymond Eddy. The first to report and hold the first-hand information is Brazil Times. Everyone knows that Brazil Times is the property of the Fang family, and it will inevitably arouse doubts in those who are interested. If someone finally analyzes it and suspects that all of this is Fang Lang''s conspiracy to bring down the Eddie family, it will be troublesome. (end of this chapter) Chapter 360: consult Chapter 360 Ask for advice Minister Carles Cayo couldn''t help sighing after hearing Fang Lang''s words, and apologetically reported the results of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency''s interrogation to Fang Lang in detail. Of course, they will definitely not tell the other party that their Ministry of Justice pushed Hodges out. After listening to Minister Carles Cayo''s words, Fang Lang said with a suddenly realized expression: "So this is ah! Unexpectedly, my action to eliminate the Yakubu family, a cancerous tumor in Natal, would bring me a fatal disaster. Its okay, its okay, the murderer has been caught now, I also feel relieved. You don''t know, my family was terrified when this happened. I am a soldier, and I am used to seeing life and death, so I don''t care much about this small scene of assassination. But my family can''t do it! No way, I can only entrust my American consultant, General Clark, to the United States to help me set up a security company, Recruit some professional security personnel and return to China to protect the safety of my family. " Calus Kayo did not expect that Fang Lang would use American generals, Go to the United States to register a professional security company and recruit bodyguards. I have to sigh that the opponent is powerful. After all, it is unimaginable for him to command an American general around and do his own private affairs. But after another thought, the other party went to the United States to register a security company instead of Brazil. Could it be distrust of the Brazilian government? Thinking of this, Carles Kayo quickly said: "Oh! This is all our problem, but I don''t think General Fang needs to bother the US military adviser. You can ask Fangyuan Group to directly register a security company in Brazil. Our Ministry of Justice will definitely give you the green light for the whole process. " "Ah! Mr. Minister Carles Cayo, it''s not that I don''t want to register a security company in Brazil. Mainly after I communicated with the American consultant, it is not a pure security company registered in the United States this time. It is a military contracting company, after the US consultant General Clark lobbied the US Department of Defense. Is this company going to be a private military contractor qualified to undertake paramilitary missions? is the kind of private army that can have heavy equipment such as machine guns, cannons, planes, tanks, and warships. There seems to be no precedent for this kind of company in Brazil, so. Fang Lang smiled slightly in his heart, but his face was slightly embarrassed, and he hesitated to speak in the end. After hearing Fang Lang''s words, the Minister of Justice looked surprised and said with surprise: "Ah! General Fang, are you kidding me? Why did you set up such a military contracting company! Is this kind of company allowed by law in the United States? " Fang Lang with a simple and honest face, after hearing the question from Minister Carles Cayo, Feeling a little embarrassed, he touched his head and said: "Actually, this company is no longer registered by me. At first, what I meant was to recruit some elites with rich combat experience to protect the safety of their families. But the American adviser, General Clark, after hearing my request, It is suggested that I directly expand the company''s scale and business scope. You also know that the current American advisory groups are all directly hired by our fleet. But General Clark is worried that these instructors will lose their jobs after our training mission is over, Therefore, it is recommended to sign all consultants into this company, In the future, after our training mission in Brazil is over, this company will undertake some military training missions from other countries. This not only meets my requirements for recruiting combat management, but also ensures that these consultants have a stable job. At the same time, it can also make the company profitable. Of course, in this case, this company cannot be dominated by me alone. As for whether the US law allows it, I dont know. Anyway, the company has been established now. The fleet has also signed a formal training agreement with this company! " Minister Carles Cayo understood what Fang Lang meant, and it seemed that he was a bit forced to expand the scale, and Fang Lang also meant being forced to board the ship. But what kind of influence such a company will have, Minister Carles Cayo knows very well. You must know that the customers who need to accept this kind of military training missions are all from some countries. And if this company wants to take these orders, it must have huge influence in the US Department of Defense. There is an American adviser, General Clark, who is lobbying the U.S. Department of Defense, Fang Lang is almost sitting on his hands, and automatically has the status of a partner of the US Department of Defense. This layer of identity comes with huge political influence. Mr. Minister couldn''t help sighing, Fang Lang''s luck is really good. Talking about this with Minister Carles Cayo, Fang Lang certainly didn''t want to brag with him. Actually, Fang Lang already had a detailed understanding of the Minister''s situation before meeting Mr. Minister. This doctor of law who returned from studying in the United States admires the United States very much. I am very envious of the strength of the United States, and think that everything in the United States is good, and it is worth learning from Brazil. Even America''s moon is rounder than Brazil''s. Fang Lang said this to the other party to let the other party know that he has a very close relationship with the US military and has a certain influence in the US. In this case, the other party will naturally think that everyone is their own, and Fang Lang''s status is higher than him. Many things in the future will become easier to communicate. Sure enough, what Minister Carles Cayo said next proved Fang Lang''s idea was correct. "Unexpectedly, General Fang would have such an opportunity, Being able to become one of the shareholders of such a company, General Fang''s future will be limitless! Since such a company can successfully register in the United States, it is obviously in line with the free spirit of American law. We in Brazil should also look up to the free America, In the future, if your company needs any help in Brazil, please feel free to tell me. " Hearing Minister Carles Kayo''s words, Fang Lang was happy, this guy is really a Hami school through and through! If you want to talk about this company, what needs help in Brazil, Fang Lang really didn''t expect it for a while. Before the establishment of this company, Fang Lang had communicated with President Dutra. President Dutra has allowed him to play around the corner, so Fang Lang has no reason to discuss more matters about this company with the Minister of Justice at this time. More importantly, Fang Lang knew the purpose of the other party''s coming to find him today. I can''t ask the other party for help at this time. Otherwise, when others ask me for help later, it will be difficult for me to ask for help. Thinking of this, Fang Lang laughed and said: "Minister Kayo is too polite, I will definitely not be polite to you if necessary. " After finishing speaking, he pointed to the dishes that had just been served on the table, and said to Carles Kayo: "Come, come, Mr. Minister, let''s chat while eating! These are all fresh seafood, try it to see if our Chinese food method suits your appetite. " Seeing that Fang Lang ended the topic, Carles Kayo didn''t say much, after all, this was not the focus of his visit today. Hearing the other party say that this is the way of Chinese food, he couldn''t help being a little curious. Knowing that the other party is Chinese, he is still happy to entertain him with Chinese food. The dishes on the table were well prepared, and he could smell the fragrance as early as when they were on the table. At this time, I stopped being polite, reached out and took a big crab and started to move. It was just a mouthful, and the eyes were the same face. He involuntarily gave Fang Lang a thumbs up, and exclaimed: "General Fang, I didn''t expect Chinese food to be so delicious. If such a restaurant opens in Rio de Janeiro in the future, I must try it often." These are just being polite to each other, Fang Lang also said with a smile on his face: "No problem, I will ask the boss if he has any plans to expand his business, if he is willing to open a store in Rio de Janeiro. I will let him go to Mr. Minister''s house and open a restaurant so that Mr. Minister can taste it! Ha ha" Calus Kayo also laughed when he heard Fang Lang''s words. Because many Westerners don''t like to talk about business while eating. In addition, it was Carus Cayo who came to look for Fang Lang today, so of course Fang Lang couldn''t take the initiative to ask the other party''s purpose. The two chatted for a while. The other party talked about his study experience in the United States, and Fang Lang also talked about his experience in attending the training of destroyer captains in the United States. Everyone revolves around what they have seen and heard in the United States, and the more they chat, the more speculative they become. Minister Carles Cayo felt like he hated seeing Fang Lang late. After much difficulty, both of them finished their meal. Fang Lang took the other party directly back to his residence in the naval base. After a meal, the communication between the two was obviously smoother. Wait for Fang Lang to lead the other party to his tea room. "Okay, Secretary Cayo, now we can open the skylight and speak clearly. You came to find me this time, but it was not to inform me of the investigation results of my assassination case! " Fang Lang made tea while talking to Minister Carles Kayo who was sitting opposite him. Calus Cayo seemed a lot more relaxed at this time, and he didn''t continue to beat around the bush. After all, he wasn''t good at it either. nodded and said: "That''s right, I came to you this time because I really want to ask you something. You also know that the treason of the Eddie family has a great impact on our Ministry of Justice, The entire police system in Brazil needs a complete overhaul. Before the rectification began, Mr. President mentioned to us that you are in Natal and have made some big changes to the policing system. Let the current Natal have undergone earth-shaking changes. So, I came here specifically to seek your help this time. " Hearing this, Fang Lang smiled, and handed a cup of tea to the other party. Said unhurriedly: "Ask for advice, I don''t dare to be. But help too! I''d still love it. After all, I am also a victim of the corruption and incompetence of our Brazilian police system. Otherwise, I wouldnt have made a drastic move against the police station as soon as I arrived in Natal. " Calus Kayo heard Fang Lang''s comment, his face became slightly hot, but after thinking about it, he was not the Minister of Justice back then! But as an official of the Department of Justice, he is also to blame. Coughed twice, picked up the tea and took a sip to cover up his embarrassment, and then slowly said: "Yes! Our police system in Brazil has reached the point where it must be changed. This time, taking advantage of the opportunity to clean up the remnants of the Eddie family, a major overhaul of the entire police system was carried out. Now your police in Natal have changed very successfully. That''s why we made a special trip here to ask you for advice. " Actually, Minister Carles Cayo does not really have no idea about rectifying the Brazilian police system. As a Brazilian studying in the United States, he admires the United States, and of course he also admires the American police. Originally he wanted to directly copy the American police system. But after arriving in Natal today, although I didnt see any big changes in the Natal police, However, it is obviously not inferior to the policemen he saw in the United States. So, this time, I am sincerely asking for advice. Of course, Fang Lang knew the other party''s purpose clearly, and he knew very well that the reason why the other party made this trip was not his own subjective wish. Rather, Mr. President''s suggestion. As the Minister of Justice appointed by the President, of course he must carry out the will of the President. As for whether he really took this investigation seriously in his heart, it was hard to say. Fortunately, Fang Lang didn''t expect the other party to really be able to completely change the status quo of the Brazilian police. But since the other party has made this special trip, it is impossible for him to let the other party make the trip in vain, not to mention that he still wants to get something beneficial to him from the other party. Actually, I havent made any big changes to the police system in Natal either, First of all, I arrested all the people in the Natal police station who were involved with the Yakubu family. All police officers involved in illegal and criminal activities shall be brought to justice. " Just talking about this point, Carles Cayo''s face turned bitter, your mother, it''s impossible to do this alone! You need to know the entire police station in Brazil, if all the people related to the Eddie family are arrested, Brazil''s police system is in disarray. This is contrary to the principle of no major rectification requested by Mr. President. Fang Lang didn''t care what the other party thought, but just introduced what he did one by one. "At the same time, all the police officers who have not committed crimes are gathered together and sent to the military camp for retraining. In addition to re-learning the relevant regulations of the police and learning related laws and regulations, It is also necessary to train the professional skills such as criminal investigation and identification that the police should master. The most important thing is to rebuild their sense of discipline and honor! Only when they pass the exam can they be re-employed. " "Then in your Natal market, isn''t there no police to maintain law and order?" Hearing this, Fang Lang smiled and said: "That''s right! I''ll send troops directly to the streets, and just maintain law and order!" Calus Cayo sighed, he knew he couldn''t do this, so he could only shake his head and said: "and then?" Fang Lang saw the other party''s appearance, smiled, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea before saying: "Then, it is to improve the welfare of the police, The main reason for police corruption is that the benefits are not high, Therefore, it is difficult to resist the temptation of the outside world. As long as we make the police salaries easily enough to feed their families, they won''t be corrupted so easily. " Minister Carles Cayo was lost in thought again. It''s not that he doesn''t want to give the police better treatment. But with so many police officers across the country, it would be a huge expense to increase their salaries at the same time. I dont know if this plan can be passed by Congress. More importantly, it is obviously impossible to directly solve the problem of police corruption by simply improving the treatment. This is a means to be used in conjunction with the big rectification. (end of this chapter) Chapter 361: school manager Chapter 361 School Manager After pondering for a while, Carles Kayo nodded slightly and said: "This makes sense. Improving the treatment of the police should indeed be able to reduce police corruption to a certain extent. But how much is more appropriate? " The Minister of Justice is actually a little naive. After all, he offered to raise the police''s salary. It will definitely elevate his image in the eyes of the police, which is of great benefit to maintaining his authority in the Ministry of Justice. So it doesn''t matter whether the salary increase will be approved by Congress, I mentioned the plan, and of course it would be best to pass it. If you fail, you cant blame me. The news reaches the ears of the police, and everyone should be grateful to him. This can be regarded as a sweet date for the police, at least the resistance will be reduced during the rectification. This method is beneficial and harmless to him, so he decided to adopt it. When Fang Lang heard his question, he wanted to roll his eyes at him. "How much is appropriate depends on the courage of your Ministry of Justice. The cost of living in different regions is different, and the salary of the police should also be different. You shouldnt ask me these questions. Your Ministry of Justice should arrange a special team to take charge of this matter. " Mr. Minister touched his nose in embarrassment. "Ugh! Okay! You''re right! Any more? " Calmly added tea to Minister Carles Cayo''s teacup, Fang Lang said calmly: Finally, I established a professional police school based on the short-term police training courses. We have hired many professional teachers from developed countries such as Europe and the United States, Cultivate professional professional police for us. The recruiting objects of this police school can be excellent retired soldiers of the army, or social youths who have completed primary or secondary education. In the future, all police officers in Natal can only be produced from graduates of the police school. Do not accept social recruitment, avoid the trouble of mixed good and bad, or retraining schools after joining the police force. " This idea caught the eyes of Minister Carles Cayo, Especially, I heard that many professional teachers were hired from Europe, America and other countries, which made his eyes shine. "Oh! Then how is your police academy doing now? Have you encountered any difficulties? " Fang Lang''s mouth was slightly upturned, and he continued to say calmly: "Difficulties? There are no difficulties for the time being. Our school is not large. Now an agreement has been reached with the Natal Police Department and the Sao Paulo Police Department, Graduates can directly enter the two police stations without examination. " "What? The St. Paul Police Department has also reached an agreement with your school, allowing you to work in the police station without taking the exam? How did you convince the St. Paul Police Department? " You must know that Sao Paulo is one of the only two big cities in Brazil. If students who graduate from this police academy can directly enter the St. Paul Police Station without taking the test, there will definitely be a lot of people rushing to come. After all, the police is a very good job. Now, if you want to find a job in the St. Paul Police Department, you need to find a lot of contacts and pay a lot of money. But now there is a shortcut, as long as you can graduate from this police academy, you can directly enter the Sao Paulo Police Department to work, how can you not surprise Minister Carles Cayo. "Persuasion? Why do you want to persuade? I can provide them with professionally trained professional police officers. It''s too late for them to be happy! Still need me to persuade? " Fang Lang said proudly. It''s a pity that Minister Carles Cayo is not a fool. There is no py transaction in it, and the St. Paul Police Department cannot agree to such a thing. With an expression of believing in you to be a ghost, he looked at Fang Lang and said: "Do you think I will believe it? Others don''t use so many police officers, but graduates from your school? Do you think I''m stupid? " Touched his nose, Fang Lang smiled embarrassedly, took a sip of tea, and then slowly said: "Ahem. This one! I was almost assassinated by the local police in S?o Paulo, I didn''t bother them, How dare they disrespect me for such a trivial matter? " Hearing this, Calus Cayo gave a disdainful cut with such an expression. This is the time for the two of them to have a meal, and the relationship has become closer, otherwise Mr. Minister would definitely not have made such an action. Fang Lang saw it, good guy, what do you mean, despise me? Dissatisfied directly opened the mouth and said: "What do you mean? Look down on me? Look at how good the mayor of Sao Paulo is, he apologized to me without even opening my mouth. Also actively deal with the aftermath, soothe my emotions. Look at the senior officials of certain departments, saying that they are asking for advice, and they come with empty hands. Even asked me to treat guests to dinner, but I was not satisfied after the meal, Actually sneered at me, what do you mean, bullying me for being young! " Good guy, Minister Carus Cayo never thought of it, he just questioned it, and mocked the other party on his face, The other party immediately began to point at Sang and curse at Huai, and they almost pointed at the monk and scolded the bald donkey. However, he soon realized that although the other party was insinuating and scolding himself. But in fact, he should not be really angry. This is obviously telling himself that he has been wronged in Sao Paulo, and the Sao Paulo city government has compensated him. But the Ministry of Justice didn''t do anything, which made him a little upset. Soon, he thought again why Mr. President reminded himself to come to Natal to ask Fang Lang how to rectify the police system? Is it really simply because of the successful rectification of Natal''s police system? Looking at the young rear admiral in front of him, think about the relationship with the US Department of Defense mentioned by the other party during the meal. I also thought that the other party could grow from a small soldier to a real power faction with Brazil''s most elite sea power in just two years. And, the background behind the other party is the Fangyuan Group, which has built a complete automobile industry system in Brazil in one go. More importantly, the Fangyuan Group now has political influence in Brazil. Minister Carles Cayo seemed to understand something. smiled awkwardly and said: "Brother Fang was joking, how could anyone dare to look down on you? Who dares to be so rude, you tell me, I, the Minister of Justice, quit, and I will do it myself to help you clean him up. How dare you bully my brother, I dont want to live anymore. " Fang Lang didn''t speak, but just looked at Minister Carles Kayo quietly, with a clear look in his eyes and said, it''s you. Now Minister Carles Cayo, who was as thick as a city wall, couldn''t help but blushed. Touched his nose, took another sip from the teacup, concealed his embarrassment and said: "Ahem! Brother Fang, it''s my brother''s fault, don''t be angry. Do you see if this works, since your police school has trained police officers for Natal and Sao Paulo. Then to rectify the police system this time, bro, take this opportunity, in the name of the Ministry of Justice, to invest in this police academy and expand the scale of your police academy. In the future, all police officers in the country must be recruited from this police academy. What do you think? " Fang Lang smiled slightly in his heart, but his face was expressionless, and he still said unhappily: "What do you mean, your Ministry of Justice came directly to pick peaches! Not only did I dig the police academy I finally established to your Ministry of Justice, it became your political achievement, Let all my investment go in vain, and you still want me to thank you? Am I that stupid? " Minister Carles Cayo waved his hands again and again: "Brother Fang, I misunderstood, I misunderstood, Brother is not such a person. Since you organized the construction of the school, it must be managed by you. How can you grab the fruits of your labor into our hands? Isn''t this a robber? What I mean is that our Ministry of Justice is mainly responsible for investment, funding and employment. You see how good this is. " Fang Lang, who was so happy in his heart, looked up and down at Minister Carles Cayo, and said with a puzzled look: "Is your Ministry of Justice so kind?" "Look at what you said, everyone is our own, Brother can''t let you help for nothing, right! " Minister Carles Cayo smiled at Fang Lang with a smile on his face. Fang Lang knew that with the nod of the Minister of Justice, the matter was settled. But this matter, he cant really do this. If he eats all the benefits by himself, it will definitely cause dissatisfaction among others. Calus Cayo is now the minister, and what he promised may not be a problem. What about the next administration? Would he still allow such an important school to be in his own hands? As long as government officials are not blind, it is impossible for this kind of thing to happen. He pondered for a while before opening his mouth and saying: "Since the elder brother also said that we are our own people, it would be bad if I was ignorant. After my brother went back, it was hard to explain. If my brother really thinks that this police school will help change and rectify the police system. Then my contribution to this school can be regarded as a contribution to the country. But, as my brother said, this school is also my passion. Let me let go completely, and I can''t bear it. How about this! Since the Ministry of Justice is willing to fund and participate in the construction of this school, From now on, you, the Minister of Justice, will be the principal of this school. We can set up a school board, and in the future, I will be the school board member. " What is a school manager? Minister Carles Cayo is of course very clear that school managers in western countries have great rights. The principal is responsible to the school manager, although the school manager does not participate in the usual management of the school. However, they have the right to appoint and dismiss many important positions in the school. Fang Lang''s meaning is obvious. On the bright side, the Minister of Justice has become the principal of the police academy. Let alone other things, the school''s level has been raised directly. From the original city-level police technical school, it was directly upgraded to a university directly under the national ministries and commissions, and the school is still headed by the Minister of Justice himself. Regardless of the administrative level, I don''t know how far I have flown. In the future, no police station anywhere will dare to embarrass the graduates of the school. After all, this is a student who can directly establish a direct connection with the Attorney General. As the school director, Fang Lang can control part of the actual power of the police academy, so what does it matter who is the principal? It is normal for the directors of western schools to be individuals or companies. Everyone pays attention to who the principal is. As for who the school manager is, no one cares at all. Just like the legal person of many companies, it sounds very famous, but the real major shareholder or boss of this company is often unknown. But the person who really controls the lifeblood of this company is often this unknown person. Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Minister Carles Cayo''s eyes also brightened. He really didn''t like the position of the principal of a police academy. But in this special period, when the police system is being rectified, a national police academy is established. For him, this is a real achievement. Although this principal may be only in name, do I really want to manage such a school? At worst, when the time comes, arrange for two officials from the Ministry of Justice to enter the school to participate in the management. I only need the corresponding reputation. So, Minister Carles Cayo laughed and said: "Haha. Brother Fang, this is you." As he spoke, he stretched out his thumb, and gestured to Fang Lang. "Don''t worry, I will make a clear regulation after I go back. The Minister of Justice can only serve as the honorary principal of this school. As for the principal who actually manages the school, he is still elected by the school board. At that time, we will make sure that the school board members of this school must guarantee your school board rights, brother. " This can be regarded as reciprocating. Of course Fang Lang doesn''t care about this. It doesn''t make any difference whether the Minister of Justice is the honorary principal or the official principal. Because it is impossible for him to have too much energy to participate in the daily management of the school. "If the Ministry of Justice participates in the construction of the police academy, the scale of our school must be further expanded. Looks like I''m going to talk to the city government of Natal to buy a new piece of land to build a new campus. What is the name of the new school, I will trouble you to think about it. " "Okay, after I go back, I will start to apply for funds to establish a police academy directly under the Brazilian Ministry of Justice on the basis of the current Natal Police Academy. In terms of name, it is called the Brazilian Police University. what do you think? " Minister Carles Cayo did not hesitate, and confirmed directly on the spot, and he did not even intend to change the address of the police academy. Obviously, he is really only planning to serve as the honorary principal, because with the distance from Natal to Rio de Janeiro, The school was built in Natal, and he had no chance to come and participate in the management. Seeing this situation, Fang Lang stopped hiding and said directly: "Brother, my experience in rectifying the Natal Police Department, It can only provide a certain reference for you to rectify the entire police system in Brazil. Because, it is impossible for you to arrest all the policemen associated with the Eddie family. " Sighing lightly, Minister Carles Cayo touched his forehead and said: "That''s right! If this is the case, the security of the whole society will be messed up. However, it is absolutely impossible not to rectify. I dont know if my brother has any good suggestions! " Fang Lang sat on the table, poured himself tea, and thought while drinking, looking hesitant. When Cales Kayo saw his expression, his heart moved, and he knew that the other party must have an idea in his heart, but he was a little hesitant, and it was not easy to speak. At this time, he still has so much control over him, so he said directly: "Brother, although we met for the first time today, However, I think you are also a real person, and you and I have a good chat. If you have any ideas, please feel free to tell me. There is no need to have any scruples, I can make my own judgment. Even if it doesnt work out in the end, I definitely wont blame you. If it succeeds, brother, I will definitely remember your goodness, and I will find a way when the time comes, thank you very much. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 362: recommend Chapter 362 Recommended Seeing Minister Carles Cayo''s sincere expression, Fang Lang gritted his teeth as if he had made up his mind. Picking up the teacup, he took a sip, put the cup heavily on the tea table, and said with a desperate expression: "Since my brother has said so, I will say a few more words. This time! I don''t make suggestions, but I can recommend someone to my brother, It is Silva Carpenter, the deputy director of our Natal Police Department. Our Natal police system can not achieve today''s achievements without his efforts. And, he is very familiar with many people in the Brazilian police system, If you want to complete the cleansing of the Brazilian police system without a major rectification. Leave it to him, and he will definitely handle it for you. " I thought Fang Lang could give himself some good advice to directly solve the problem, but in the end, he recommended someone to himself. And this person is just a deputy police chief in Natal. At this level, if you participate in the purge of the Brazilian police system, you may not even have enough members of an investigation team! However, he also understood that since Fang Lang recommended this person to him, there must be some reason. So, after pondering for a while, I still asked: "Brother, it''s not that I don''t believe you, but the goal of this rectification is actually to completely eliminate the influence of the Eddie family in the police force. Your deputy chief may be a good hand in rectifying the discipline of the police force. However, our biggest problem now is that we don''t know who is closely related to the Eddie family. If everyone is attacked directly, the attack surface will be very large, which may cause chaos in the entire police system. Moreover, it may not be possible to clear the target you want to clear. " Looked at the Minister of Justice in doubt, Fang Lang asked in puzzlement: "Haven''t you already caught the Eddie family? Couldn''t they tell from their mouths that those people belong to them! " Shaking his head with a wry smile: "They confessed what they did to themselves, but none of their henchmen said anything, only that they were friends. In this case, we have no way to start! Besides, even if they really confessed to a list, we are not sure how much of it is true and how much is false! What''s more, the other party may deliberately conceal some important people? " Fang Lang believed this, but the reason why he recommended Silva Carpenter to Calus Cayo was precisely because this guy already had a list of all the members of the Police Club. And started to investigate these people a long time ago, and recommended him to Calus Cayo because he had a list in his hand. Whether he wants to arrest those people, or not to arrest those people, he is very clear. More importantly, before arresting, Silva Carpenter can select some people who can be used by him from the list, As long as you talk to them in advance, those who are willing to take refuge, who are capable, and who have not made major mistakes, can completely subdue them. At that time, Fang Lang can directly take over the strength of the Eddie family in the police force. With this power, the new generation who graduated from the police academy will be escorted by a huge force when they enter the police station, and they will quickly gain a foothold. Seeing Calus Kayo''s distressed look, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Brother, I am very clear about the purpose of the Ministry of Justice to rectify the police system this time. The reason why I recommend this person to you is because he has a way to find out who is your target. do you understand me? " Now Calus Kayo couldn''t sit still anymore, he stood up from the stool suddenly, looked at Fang Lang in disbelief and said: "You mean, he knows that those people are partisans of the Eddie family? how can that be? " Fang Lang couldn''t answer this question directly, so he just smiled and stopped talking. Kales Kayo saw that Fang Lang just smiled and said nothing, but his heart moved, and he said in disbelief: "How is this possible! No way, he is also from the Eddie family!" Fang Lang still smiled and said nothing. At this time, Carles Kayo had already begun to automatically figure out the identity of this Silva Carpenter. Of course he couldn''t let the other party know that he had already been investigating the situation of the Eddie family. So, no matter what the other party asked, Fang Lang just smiled and said nothing. Sometimes the more you give people room for imagination, the more others can automatically make up a complete set of logic for you. Mr. Carles Cayo at this time obviously belongs to this situation. After he convinced himself, he said directly to Fang Lang: "Okay, then I will second, your deputy police chief, to assist me in handling this case. Don''t worry, if the Eddie family can be completely eradicated, I will definitely give your deputy director a promotion. " Hearing the words, Fang Lang shook his head and smiled and said: "Mr. Minister is joking, I am just the captain of the aircraft carrier fleet, Not the chief of the police station, he is your subordinate, not mine, Don''t get me wrong, it''s up to you, not me, to decide whether to give him a promotion or not. " Hearing that Fang Lang no longer called his brother, Calus Kayo himself might have said something wrong. Covered up with a smile: "Oops! Dude! Look, my brother misunderstood, you are right, this is my subordinate. Since he can complete the rectification work of the Natal Police Department, he must also be able to provide great help to this major rectification. This time I directly transferred him to the working group of the Ministry of Justice to help us complete the rectification of the entire police system. Thank you brother for reminding me, if you hadnt told me, I wouldnt have known there were such outstanding talents under my command. " Fang Lang nodded with a smile and said: "My brother''s Ministry of Justice is full of talents, there must be many outstanding talents that have not been discovered, In the future, my brother needs to communicate more with our brothers below, so that we can gain new gains. " "Haha. Brother is right, In the future, we two brothers need to get closer and closer. " Calus Kayo laughed and stretched out his hand to Fang Lang. He gained a lot today. Although Fang Lang had a hand in it, his trip was worthwhile. As long as the deputy director recommended by Fang Lang can really grasp all the connections of the Eddie family in the police station as Fang Lang said, then he will be able to rectify the police system with twice the result with half the effort. He couldn''t help being unhappy. As for whether this person belongs to Fang Lang, it doesn''t really matter at all. After negotiating this matter, Carles Cayo''s goal of coming to Natal has been achieved. The next day, the Minister of Justice summoned Silva Carpenter at the Natal Police Station early in the morning. Fang Lang did not know what the two communicated. When the investigation team of the Ministry of Justice left Natal the next afternoon, Silva Carpenter was transferred by the Ministry of Justice to the Ministry of Justice''s task force to rectify the police system. Silva Carpenter got to work soon after joining the Justice Department''s task force. Mr. Attorney General seems to have great trust in him. The day after arriving in Rio de Janeiro, Silva Carpenter began to bring people directly into the police headquarters. Interviews were conducted with many people, and the results and content of the conversations are unknown. But when the third person was interviewed, Chief of Police Thomas Cisse had already started to panic. Because every person interviewed by him is the backbone of the police club. However, everyone who was interviewed began to consciously cut off contact with the club, including keeping a distance from him, the chief of police. Thomas Cisse, no matter how stupid he is, understands that the Police Club has no secrets from others. The people interviewed by the other party were obviously some excellent police officers who were very capable and did not have many criminal records. There are indications that these people chose to stand in line again after being interviewed. He didn''t know what would happen to him as the Chief of Police. But based on his own guess, it shouldn''t be very good. Sure enough, he did not wait for an interview with the other party, but waited for an interview with the working group. After the interview, he directly resigned from the post of police chief. And was put into the custody of the Ministry of Justice. After more than a month of investigation and trial by the entire working group, more than 100 police officers who were closely related to the Eddie family and most of them were illegal were cleared out of the Brazilian police force. The normal work of the police force has not been affected in any way, which makes Mr. President very satisfied. Then, after the Minister of Justice reported the results of rectifying the police system in Congress, he directly put forward two opinions on reforming the police system. The first is to improve the treatment of all police officers. The second is to upgrade the Natal Police Academy to the Brazilian Police University, All senior police officers must go to this police university for at least one year before being promoted to the rank of deputy director. Of course, this police university does not train all college students, and also undertakes the teaching work of some grassroots police officers. All students who graduate from this school will be assigned to work in various police stations across the country. This is also the only school in Brazil that includes all assignments. What Justice Minister Carles Cayo did not expect was that the two proposals passed very smoothly. Including the proposal to improve the treatment of police officers that he thought would be stuck, there was no resistance. After returning to the Ministry of Justice, Minister Carles Cayo directly appointed Silva Carpenter, the former deputy director of the Natal Police Department, as the director of the Inspection Department of the Brazilian Police Headquarters. Professional supervision of the internal personnel of the police station. And all of this has nothing to do with Fang Lang. On the third day after the Ministry of Justice inspection team left Natal, Fang Lang received several special guests at Natal Airport. When the plane stopped, Vivienne with golden hair was the first to get off the plane. I haven''t seen her for a while, but the little girl has turned into a fashionable beauty. Wearing a delicate gray suit, a knee-length skirt, and a pair of flesh-colored stockings, she turned out to be an offspring OL style. Fang Lang''s eyes were a little straightened. Seeing Fang Lang on the tarmac, Vivienne couldn''t wait to run down the gangway and directly into Fang Lang''s arms. Completely ignoring the gazes of other people, he hugged Fang Lang''s mouth and began to gnaw. Fang Lang also hugged his partner tightly, and gave a French wet kiss. It wasn''t until two light coughs came from beside them that the two reluctantly parted. They saw Lilith with long black hair, a small round cap, and a long windbreaker looking at her with a smile on her face. . And Ophelia Berg behind him looked at himself and Vivienne with a hellish expression on his face. From time to time, two light coughs came from the throat. Fang Lang glared at the other party angrily, hugged Lilith into his arms and kissed her hard. "You guys are finally here, you miss me so much!" "Hmph! My dear, you are lying, you only think about your sister, and you don''t think about me at all. You go to the United States to see your sister, but you dont come to France to see me, and you dont miss me at all. " As soon as Fang Lang''s voice fell, Vivian was already pouting and protesting dissatisfiedly. Hearing the words, Fang Lang''s expression froze, and he said to the back of his head in embarrassment: "Why, I miss you! Going to see your sister is also because I need to go to the United States for work, And you are in France, it is really inconvenient. Isn''t it time for your summer vacation that Lilith will pick you up and come to Brazil? " "Hmph! You are lying. I heard from my sister that you took your sister to inspect a military academy some time ago, but in fact you took her on a self-driving tour. I don''t care, I want to. " Vivian hugged Fang Lang''s arm and said coquettishly. Fang Lang looked around at the people who came together, including Ophelia Berg, and the two Li family juniors who were responsible for protecting Lilith. Rao was ashamed as a city wall, and he felt a little embarrassed. After staring fiercely, Lilith, who was quietly hugging her other arm, turned her head and kissed Vivienne, saying: "Okay, I should have the opportunity to go to France next year, how about taking you on a self-driving tour in Paris?" "Really? That''s what you said, Sister, you have to testify for me. " Vivienne spoke excitedly, like a child who can''t grow up. Lilith glanced at the other party dotingly, then glanced at Fang Lang with a smile and said: "Okay, my sister will testify for you. If he dares to break the appointment, then my sister will help you clean him up. " With her sister''s guarantee, Vivienne was obviously happier, and hugged Fang Lang''s arm tighter. Fang Lang glanced at Olivia Berg behind him, greeted him with a smile and said: "Why did Olivia come to Brazil!" I dont know why, but Olivia Berg felt very upset when she saw Fang Lang hugging her left and right, looking like she was in full bloom. Angrily said: "Lilith and I are good friends, she asked me to come to Brazil for a trip, can''t you?" Hearing this, Fang Lang nodded seriously and said: "Well! Of course it''s no problem, then it will be considered that you have asked for leave during the recent period. Wages will be deducted! " Olivia Berg gritted her silver teeth lightly, her eyes widened and she said angrily: "Huh! The evil capitalists deduct wages as soon as they deduct wages. What''s the big deal." Lilith, who was holding Fang Lang''s arm, stretched out her hand on the soft flesh of Fang Lang''s waist, pinched it lightly, and said angrily: "What about deducting wages, I asked Olivia to come and play with me. I heard that his uncle''s family has followed you to work in Brazil, so I took this opportunity to ask her to come and visit his uncle. " Actually, Fang Lang doesn''t really want to deduct Olivia Berg''s salary. Lilith is in the United States, and Fang Lang is not at ease, so he has already arranged for the other party to spend more time with her when she is free. Fang Lang certainly has no objection to the fact that the two can become good friends because of this. Just because her cough interrupted her good business just now, she deliberately teased him. Feeling the strength from Dao''s waist, Fang Lang quickly turned his head to Lilith and begged for mercy: "My dear, if you say no, you won''t. I was just joking, don''t take it seriously. " After speaking, he blinked at Olivia Berg and said: "You are amazing!" Seeing this situation, Olivia Berg raised the corners of her mouth slightly, flicked her head to the upper left, and hummed softly. (end of this chapter) Chapter 363: bikini Chapter 363 Bikini Fang Lang stopped arguing with him, turned his head and said to the two Li family junior sisters behind him: "Two junior sisters, you have worked hard during this time. Tomorrow we will go home and take you to the master. " I don''t know if it''s because the two of them had less contact with Fang Lang, but the two who saw Fang Lang seemed a little cramped. Especially when I saw Fang Lang and Lilith sisters just now, the French wet kiss scene made the two sisters blush a little. For a while, I didn''t know how to answer Fang Lang''s words, so I just said a soft "Yeah!" Seeing this scene, Lilith let go of Fang Lang''s arm, stepped forward and took the twins'' hands and said: "Sisters, why are you so shy, you don''t even say hello when you see your senior brother?" After speaking, he turned his head and said to Fang Lang: "My dear, let me tell you that the younger sisters are really medical geniuses, and their academic performance is much better than mine." Hearing the words, Fang Lang said with a stinky face: "Of course, you don''t even look at whose junior sister!" This made Lilith and the Li family sisters giggle, and Olivia Berg wrinkled her nose and muttered: "What does it have to do with you!" Fang Lang was too lazy to argue with him, so he pretended not to hear, and after looking at the two junior sisters for a while, he said: "I haven''t seen you for a while, and I can''t tell the difference. Which of you is the older sister and who is the younger sister? What should I do?" The two sisters relaxed when they heard it, and one of them smiled at Fang Lang and said: "Brother, I''m a sister!" Hearing this, Fang Lang nodded with a smile and said: "Well! Now I know, you are sister Li Yulan." Looking aside, she also looked at her other junior sister with a smile and said: "You are sister Li Yumei." The recognized sister stomped her feet unhappily and said: "Brother, I am the elder sister." The younger sister of the two twins, Li Yulan doesn''t seem to agree with her identity as a younger sister. Fortunately, her older sister Li Yumei doesn''t care about her. Lilith said softly to Fang Lang: "Honey, let me tell you a way to tell who is the older sister and who is the younger sister." Said and blinked at Fang Lang, as if it was some big secret. But before Fang Lang could answer, the two sisters had already covered Lilith''s mouth with their hands, and shouted with flushed faces: "Ah! Lilith, don''t say it!" Looking at the expressions of the two sisters, Fang Lang seemed to understand something, and looked up and down the two of them, making their faces even redder. Vivian on the side stepped forward and said: "Honey, I know too, my sister told me, let me tell you!" Junior Junior Sister Li Yulan rushed to Vivian''s side and covered his mouth, saying: "Ah! Don''t tell me." Seeing the laughter of several women, Fang Lang smiled with satisfaction. It seems that Lilith and the Li family sisters must be getting along very well. Otherwise, they wouldn''t be so close, which made Fang Lang feel relieved. Although he wanted to find two bodyguards for Lilith at the beginning, Fang Lang later worshiped the two sisters'' father Li Yunze as his teacher, although he basically didn''t study much. But these two are also his junior sisters. If Lilith has been used as a bodyguard all the time, Fang Lang will not be able to explain to his master. Fortunately, Lilith is not the kind of bossy lady who can get along with anyone. The girls were all as beautiful as flowers, but there were five of them all at once, so they were naturally very eye-catching. When everyone was fighting on the tarmac, many people have already aroused frequent glances. Fortunately, Fang Lang is not wearing a military uniform today, otherwise more people will definitely whisper. Seeing that the time was almost up, Fang Lang hurried forward to stop the laughter of several people and said: "Okay, okay, senior brother won''t ask anymore. If we continue to make trouble, we will be surrounded by people. Come with me, we will go home first. " As he spoke, he turned around and walked towards the car parked aside. The sisters fought with each other for a while before following Fang Lang''s footsteps. Naturally, Fang Lang''s guards were responsible for collecting the luggage. Lilith and Vivian quickly caught up with Fang Lang''s footsteps, and hugged Fang Lang''s arms one by one again. Fang Lang smiled and gave everyone a kiss, both of them were smiling. Everyone got in the car and went straight to Fang Lang''s officer''s villa, Vivian was very excited along the way, especially after passing through the barracks and seeing the blue beach. What''s more, he hugged Fang Lang''s neck while driving from behind and said: "Honey, the beach here is so beautiful, I brought back a bikini from France! Do you want me to wear it for you to see! " Fang Lang, who was driving, was a little excited when he heard this, and almost drove off the road without stopping the steering wheel. After hearing this, Lilith on the side looked at Vivienne with a puzzled expression and said: "What is a bikini!" Vivienne giggled and looked at Lilith and said: "Sister, I think brother-in-law is dishonest!" Hearing that Vivienne changed her address, Lilith glared at her sister and said: "Ask you something! What do you say he is doing? Why don''t you call me dear? Now I''m calling brother-in-law, do I want to call him brother-in-law too! " "Hee hee. Because, brother-in-law is dishonest! The bikini swimsuit was designed by Luis Real at the Paris Fashion Show on July 5 this year. I also studied fashion design in Paris, so I had the opportunity to come into contact with it. But look at my brother-in-law, hes staying in Brazil, but he knows this womens swimsuit style, he must be dishonest. " Vivian sat in the back seat, put her arms around Fang Lang''s neck and put her hands into Fang Lang''s collar, as if she wanted to warm her hands, and pressed her hands against Fang Lang''s chest. After talking with his sister, he put his mouth next to Fang Lang''s ear, and blew hot air: "Isn''t it! Brother-in-law" The sweet and greasy voice killed Fang Lang, and his whole body was numb. Especially when the girl didn''t call her my dear, but called her brother-in-law instead, I didn''t know why there was an inexplicable sense of excitement in my heart. Lilith on the side saw her sister teasing Fang Lang, but she didn''t criticize her, instead she came up and said: "Is that right? Brother-in-law, tell me the truth! Are you being dishonest? " Fang Lang, who was driving, wished he could slam on the brakes and execute the two goblins on the spot. But this is my own barracks. As the highest officer, I can''t mess around. It would be embarrassing if my soldiers saw it. Forced himself to calm down, controlled his heart that was about to jump out of his chest, coughed twice: "Ahem. I''m driving! You wait for me and see how I deal with you tonight! " "Ah! Sister, I''m so scared! My brother-in-law said he''s going to clean me up at night, so you need to help!" Vivian molested Fang Lang even more vigorously. This means that there are only three of them in the car, so they can talk about such private topics. "Well! Don''t worry, I will definitely help, I will help your brother-in-law clean up you. " "Ah! Brother-in-law, sister bullied me!" Fang Lang thought to himself, am I driving, or are you two driving! Could this speed be a little too fast, it has already been crushed over my face, look at the tire marks, it has rubbed my skin as thick as a city wall red. The two fought for a while, and Fang Lang finally drove the car to the door of the villa. Vivian, who pushed the door and got off the car, did not forget to say to Lilith: "Sister, you don''t care about brother-in-law, he must be dishonest. Otherwise, how would you know about the bikini just launched in Paris! " Bikini Fang Lang is of course very familiar, but this familiarity is learned from later generations. Fang Lang has never seen a bikini in this era, and even more unexpectedly, the first bikini was actually born in July 1946. It seems that the women''s liberation movement in Europe and America is developing very fast! But now I really can''t explain how I know the existence of bikinis in Brazil. Facing Lilith''s searching gaze, Fang Lang smiled bitterly and said: "Don''t listen to Vivian''s nonsense, Im very honest, this is the first time Ive heard of bikinis. " As soon as the voice fell, Vivian had already answered: "Sister, he lied, when I showed him wearing a bikini just now, he couldn''t hold the steering wheel steadily. snort! It must be dishonest. " Fang Lang heard the words, cursed the little goblin secretly, and quickly said: "Heaven and earth conscience, when this little girl spoke, she put her cold palm on my chest, I am a stress response. " After finishing speaking, he ignored the reaction of the two of them, and walked towards the villa with his arms around their slender waists. Even Olivia and the Li family sisters who got out of the car ignored them, and walked directly to the villa. Looking at the three people hugging left and right as they walked into the villa, Olivia and the three looked at each other while packing their luggage, their faces blushing. Olivia even said directly: "They won''t be right now." When the sisters of the Li family heard this, their blushing faces turned even redder. Shaking his head helplessly, he could only carry the luggage into the house by himself. Fortunately, after entering the house, seeing that they didn''t really rush into the room directly, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief. I saw Lilith and sisters Vivian visiting Fang Lang''s small villa. After seeing the three people coming in, the two sisters stepped forward in embarrassment and helped them carry their luggage together. Fang Lang was pouring water for everyone. After everyone moved in their luggage, Fang Lang allocated rooms to the three of them. As for the Lilith sisters, there was no need to distribute them, and they directly pushed their luggage into their master bedroom. Considering that several people have gone through a long-distance flight. So, Fang Lang directly arranged for everyone to take a short rest first, and after sending Olivia and the Li family sisters into the room, Fang Lang returned to his room unhurriedly, and said to Sister Lilith in the room: "Vivian, what the **** are you talking about bikinis! Take it out and let me see." Soon, exclamations came from the master bedroom. It wasn''t until more than an hour later that it slowly subsided. As for Olivia Berg in the guest room next to the master bedroom, she covered her ears with a pillow, feeling a little regretful that she shouldn''t live in this place. That afternoon, Fang Lang took everyone to Natal''s Deyilou and had a sumptuous dinner. In the evening, everyone sat on the sofa in the living room, drinking red wine and chatting. "Lilith, before you came to Brazil this time, did you go back to China to see Mr. Coburn!" "Well! After the holiday, I first went to France to meet Vivienne, and then went back to Naples with her, and then came to Brazil together." "How is the situation in Italy recently? I heard that on the 18th of last month, Italy officially became a republic. The new king, Umberto, was driven away after only being king for more than a month? " "Yes, my father was very happy to celebrate with his friends!" "Hehe. It''s been a long time since I saw Mr. Coburn, how is he doing recently?" Vivian, who rested her head on Fang Lang''s lap, answered with some dissatisfaction: "I''m so busy with your company''s affairs every day that I don''t even have time to go home to spend time with my mother. snort! It''s all your fault! You capitalist. " Hearing the words, Fang Lang coughed twice and said: "Ahem, how can you say that! Mr. Coburn has a share in the company. Besides, isnt your mans property also yours? " Lilith also frowned when she heard the words: "Vivian, don''t talk nonsense, it''s not like you haven''t seen the situation in Italy, if it wasn''t for the fact that your father works in Global Trade, would the family have the life they have now? You must know that the goods of global trade are all the daily necessities that Italy urgently needs. Without the hard work of my father, I dont know how many Italians cant even buy rice! Besides, Fang is a capitalist, arent you the wife of a capitalist? " Hearing this, Vivienne no longer refuted, but stuck out her tongue at Fang Lang. Fang Lang touched Vivienne''s golden hair a little dotingly, and said to Lilith: "It''s okay, Vivienne is complaining, Mr. Coburn doesn''t have time to accompany Mrs. Coburn! See if you want to send a telegram to bring Mrs. Coburn to Brazil for a while. " "No need this time, I have talked with them, they mean that they will come to Brazil for the winter this winter." Lilith shook her head. Fang Lang''s heart moved when he heard the words. In his impression, the two winters after World War II were extremely cold in Europe, and he said it was a severe cold that occurred once in a century. It caused many people to freeze to death in Europe, which is also a reason for the emergence of the European aid plan. nodded and said to Lilith: "Also, the weather here in Brazil will be warm and suitable for winter. Let''s go to Brazil for the winter together." Then turned to Vivian and said: "Vivian, you always say that I am a capitalist. Are there many people in France discussing this issue?" Fang Lang is very clear that the Soviet Communist Party''s penetration into Europe during this period was very serious. From Vivienne''s frequent saying that she is a capitalist, it can be seen from here that the other party must have heard this term often. Vivian, who was lying on Fang Lang''s lap, looked up, looked at Fang Lang and said: I also heard what my classmates said, to be honest, I feel that France is more chaotic than Italy now. Governments are always changing, and the country has not stabilized, and soldiers are sent to fight everywhere. After all these years of war, haven''t they had enough of war? " As a soldier, Fang Lang''s most sensitive word is of course war. Now he heard from Vivienne that France is still at war, and he couldn''t help being taken aback. His historical knowledge is mostly learned through history books. In his impression, isnt it his hometown that is still fighting in this period? Why are the Frenchmen at war? "France is still at war? Who is it at war with?" "I''m not very clear, it seems to be Asia, maybe India!" Vivienne is obviously a person who doesn''t pay much attention to politics, and most of these news are hearsay. Fang Lang understands that France will definitely not fight India, because India is the territory of the British and has nothing to do with the French. Plus India''s independence has never experienced war at all. So, fighting the Indians is simply a joke. So, in Asia, where will it be related to India? Fang Lang quickly realized that, needless to say, it was definitely in Southeast Asia. (end of this chapter) Chapter 364: placement Chapter 364 Placement The concept of Southeast Asia has only just emerged. It has not been recognized by the international community. In the eyes of established European countries, Southeast Asia should now be called Indochina. So, the place Vivian heard should be Indochina, which is Southeast Asia in later generations. Thinking of this, Fang Lang''s heart moved. It wasn''t that he wanted to participate in the Gaul war. Or use this war to get rich. A big rogue country like Gallic Chicken simply doesn''t look down on a small country like Brazil. Sell them arms, but they don''t like it either. It is estimated that their own country has a lot of munitions supported by the United States, and they have not used up yet! In addition, their country also has its own weapons manufacturing capabilities, and there is no need to purchase arms from abroad at all. Of course, their opponents might need arms, but Fang Lang didn''t dare to sell them to them. For a small business, it is completely unnecessary to have an enmity with one of the five gangsters. Besides, in Fang Lang''s impression, there are not many good people in Southeast Asia, and it''s none of his business to kill them. He is tempted by the Chinese in Southeast Asia, many of whom are very successful businessmen. However, it is precisely because everyone is too successful in business but has no force to support them, so they are often harvested as fat sheep. Thinking about these suffering Chinese, Fang Lang felt a heartache, and now he heard Vivienne say that France is launching a military operation against Southeast Asia. Fang Lang can imagine, under such circumstances, what kind of dire straits the Chinese in Southeast Asia will live in. Among these Chinese, there are quite a few people who have given up their wealth and supported their hometown to fight against Japan. Now the government of my hometown will definitely not care about the lives and lives of these fellow villagers, but Fang Lang is capable now, so how could he not help? Thinking of this, Fang Lang began to figure out how to implement it. And Vivian in her arms found that Fang Lang fell into deep thought after hearing what she said, and sat up from her arms, and asked Fang Lang: "What''s wrong? Is something wrong?" Hearing Vivian''s question, Fang Lang reacted from his contemplation, smiled at Vivian and said: "No, I just thought of something. I wonder if my Vivienne has learned anything good in Gaul! " Seeing that Fang Lang returned to normal, Vivienne felt relieved, sat beside Fang Lang''s arm, and said with a proud face: "Of course, I''m a top student. Teachers often praise me for my talent! He also took me to the fashion show in Paris, otherwise I would never have had the chance to see a bikini! " Fang Lang smiled and pinched the opponent''s nose and said with a smile: "Oh, really? It seems that our Vivienne really has a chance to become an excellent fashion designer in the future! " "Hey, I''ve already thought about it, My first work is to design a handsome suit for you. what do you think? " Vivian smiled close to Fang Lang and said. Hearing this, Fang Lang was also smiling, and said to Vivian: "It''s a deal, I''m just waiting for my little one to design a beautiful suit for me. From now on, your sisters and Is clothes will be designed by you, And I promised to set up a clothing brand for you, I am already preparing! Now I have set up a textile factory in Natal, and some time ago, I have started to produce cloth on a large scale. If necessary, I can set up a garment manufacturing factory for you at any time to produce the garments you design and sell them all over the world. what do you think? " Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Vivian jumped up from the sofa directly, and said to Fang Lang excitedly: "Honey, is everything you said true?" "Of course, don''t forget. Brazil is a famous long-staple cotton producing area in the world, and Natal is also one of the main cotton producing areas in Brazil. When the time comes, you will be responsible for the design and manufacture, and Global Trade will be responsible for helping you sell the clothes you design to the world. You will soon become a famous fashion designer all over the world, The clothing brand named after you will also be famous all over the world, and then you can organize a fashion show in your own name. " Fang Lang cheered Vivian up for granted with a face full of reason. After listening to Fang Lang''s words, the little girl fell into a beautiful longing. It took a while to react, screamed at Fang Lang, rushed directly into Fang Lang''s arms, straddled Fang Lang and said: "Ah! Honey, I love you so much!" Before Fang Lang could reply, his mouth was blocked by Vivienne''s **** red lips. After a passionate kiss, Vivienne let Fang Lang go, but she was unwilling to come down from Fang Lang''s arms. The few people in the living room could only passively be forced into a mouthful of rations. But Vivienne is obviously not a girl who only cares about herself. Soon sat up again and asked Fang Lang: "What about my sister? I heard from my sister that female doctors dont seem to be very popular nowadays. Many students who graduated from their school failed to find a job smoothly! can only serve as private doctors for some noble women. " Fang Lang heard the words, and looked at Lilith beside him, and Lilith also looked at herself and Vivian with a smile on her face, There is no look of anger at all, but as if he is happy to see the intimacy between the two of them. Now Fang Lang has completely lost his original restraint. When he was with the two sisters, he was completely relaxed. Facing Lilith''s smiling eyes, Fang Lang understood that the other party knew that he would never forget his promise to her. So, I dont worry that I will have no place to work in the future. "Of course I won''t forget Lilith, I have already asked my family to start building a hospital in Sao Paulo. However, this hospital may have some differences from our ordinary hospitals. He is a hospital integrating traditional Chinese and Western medicine? " Lilith looked at Fang Lang in confusion and said: "What does the integration of traditional Chinese and Western medicine mean?" Seeing Lilith was not angry, but a little puzzled. Fang Lang was also relieved, looked at Lilith and said: "We Chinese generally refer to the medical skills of our hometown as Chinese medicine, for example, my master, he is not only a martial arts master, but also a traditional Chinese medicine. As for the specific treatment methods, you can ask my two junior sisters. They must be able to answer more clearly than me. The modern medicine you are studying now is called Western medicine by us. The data methods and medical concepts of the two medical techniques are very different, but it cannot be denied that each has its own strengths. And what I mean is that in this hospital, there are both traditional Chinese medicine from our hometown and modern western medicine like you. Two kinds of doctors work in the same hospital, and patients can choose which doctor to go to for treatment. I am going to hand over the Department of Western Medicine directly to you to manage! what do you think? " Lilith heard the words and suddenly realized: "Oh! I see what you mean. At that time, it will be fine for me to work in this hospital, but it will not work for me to manage the Western Medicine Department. I am a medical student who has just graduated from school, and I cant even do surgery well. How can I manage a hospital! Hospital managers, I suggest you go to Europe and the United States to recruit. Only in this way can we ensure that our hospital has enough doctors and excellent medical care. Only in this way can our hospital become a powerful hospital. " After speaking, he turned his head to the two sisters Li Yumei and Li Yulan who were sitting on the side and said: "No wonder you two sisters have such good academic performance. It turns out that you have a foundation!" The two sisters didn''t know where to start when they heard the words. Finally, sister Li Yulan said: "Lilith, you may have misunderstood, Chinese medicine and Western medicine are completely different, There is a big difference in both the diagnosis method and the treatment method. Traditional Chinese medicine mainly uses yin, yang and five elements as the theoretical basis, and usually requires syndrome differentiation and treatment. When a disease occurs, it is necessary to find out the cause of the disease through syndrome differentiation, analyze the pathogenesis and changes in the internal organs, meridian joints, qi, blood and body fluid, and summarize the syndrome types. The role of drugs is to try to balance the yin and yang of the body to promote the recovery of the disease. Western medicine mainly takes anatomy and physiology, histology and embryology, biochemistry and molecular biology as the basic disciplines, and usually performs targeted examination and treatment according to the uncomfortable position described by the patient. To put it simply, Chinese medicine looks at the whole, while Western medicine looks at the parts. That is what we often say, treat the head for a headache, and treat the foot for a foot pain. The traditional Chinese medicine we studied before can not provide us with any help, but it makes us learn Western medicine even more difficult. " Lilith''s expression froze when she heard the words, and she got up suddenly after a while, rushed to Li Yulan and said: "Okay, Li Yulan, you just want to tell me that you are smarter and I am dumber! what.! You waited for me, and even called me stupid, let''s see how I deal with you. " Seeing Lilith''s dull expression, Fang Lang thought that the other party was thinking about the differences between the two medical theories described by Li Yulan. When the other party pounced on Li Yulan, he hadn''t reacted yet. Fang Lang didn''t laugh out loud until he heard Lilith''s words. Watching the two girls fight for a while, and they would have a good time from time to time, Fang Lang was very feasting his eyes. After a while, the two girls sat down, and Li Yulan panted heavily: "Lilith, you female rascal, I didn''t say you were stupid, I just told you that the two medicines are completely different, It is very difficult for us to transfer to Chinese medicine after studying Chinese medicine. " Lilith heard Li Yulan''s words, stretched out her hand again, and said to Fang Lang: "Honey, tell me, see if she''s calling me stupid. You said that it is more difficult for you to learn Western medicine, but your academic performance is better than mine. You even said that you are not making fun of me for being stupid. I can''t spare you! ah! " The two of them quarreled again, and even Li Yumei who was beside her couldn''t stand it anymore, and said to the two of them: "It''s gone, it''s gone!" Lilith is not afraid of being exposed! Anyway, there are only his men here, and if you want to see it, only your own man will see it. When Li Yulan heard the words, she was obviously panicked, begging for mercy repeatedly: "Lilith, I was wrong, sister Lilith, I was wrong. Brother is still watching from the sidelines! I surrender! forgive me! I surrender! " Lilith laughed when she heard the words: "What are you afraid of? He is your senior brother, and he is not an outsider. If you see it, you will see it!" As he spoke, he blinked at Fang Lang. It''s hard for Fang Lang to remain indifferent here. If he doesn''t say anything, he can watch more and feast his eyes. (end of this chapter) Chapter 365: Founded Chapter 365 Establishing a Mountain and Establishing a Church But now, Lilith obviously wanted to give herself more benefits on purpose, so Fang Lang was embarrassed to watch it again. Hastily coughed twice and said: "Okay, okay! Lilith and Magnolia have surrendered. Come back quickly, let me hug and comfort your wounded heart. " As he spoke, he patted Vivienne''s butt, who was sitting in his arms, and motioned for her to come down. As a result, the girl seemed to have received some signal, and kissed her mouth fiercely again. After a while, she let go and got up, and sat on the sofa on her right. The arm hugs his right arm very naturally. This made Fang Lang a little dumbfounded. Fortunately, Lilith and Li Yulan are no longer entangled. Lilith did not sit directly in Fang Lang''s arms like Vivienne, but returned to Fang Lang''s left hand, hugged Fang Lang''s arm, pouted, and looked dissatisfied. Fang Lang laughed, kissed him on the mouth, and said: "It doesn''t matter, wouldn''t their good grades help you more? At that time, after they graduate, they will also be asked to work in our hospital. When you are the dean, they will be your assistants. You direct them to work. " When Lilith heard this, hey! It seems to be very reasonable, so I am no longer angry. winked at Li Yumei and Li Yulan and said: "Did you hear that, your senior brother said, You will be my assistants in the future, so you can study hard! " When the two heard the words, they looked at each other with wry smiles. Fang Lang laughed loudly when he saw this and said: "Hahaha okay, okay, everyone is a family. The smarter you are and the more you learn, the happier I am. After you grow up, we can also rely on the hospital to set up a medical school to train more doctors to help you. You will not be very hard. By the way, what majors do you all study! " Lilith and Li Yulan were obviously just joking around, and they didn''t mean to be angry at all. I also look forward to everyone being able to work in the same hospital in the future. Hearing Fang Lang''s question, Lilith said directly: The only options we can choose now are obstetrics and gynecology and internal medicine. Women have not yet been able to enter the field of surgery. The two junior sisters both chose obstetrics and gynecology like me, but Yumei seems to be interested in internal medicine and wants to take internal medicine as an elective! Is it right? " After finishing speaking, he looked at Li Yumei who had been seldom speaking and asked. Li Yumei smiled at Fang Lang and Lilith and said: "Yes, I think my foundation of traditional Chinese medicine is very helpful to internal medicine, So, I want to study internal medicine of western medicine and see if I can gain anything. " Obviously, Li Yumei is an intellectual young woman with her own ideas, which is far beyond Fang Lang''s expectations. After all, Fang Lang knew that the two sisters were not weak in kung fu, so he didn''t expect to be very interested in learning. It seems that these are two sisters who are both civil and military! Sao Paulo, Brazil. Since the confirmation of the Chief of Police of St. Paul, St. Paul has started a severe crackdown on criminal gangs involving gangs. The intensity of the crackdown and the severity of the punishment are unprecedented. In just one month, the prison in Sao Paulo was already overcrowded. And all this seems to have nothing to do with Fang Xinshui. Fang Xinshui is now a legal taxpayer with a formal company. Whether it is an immigration company or a real estate development company, the Sao Paulo City Government cannot be easily offended. According to Fang Lang''s request, Fang Xinshui directly registered a formal security company named Hongyitang Security, and all gang members became full-time employees of the security company. So the fight against gangsters, of course, has nothing to do with regular companies like them. The office building of Hongyitang Security Company in S?o Paulo, Brazil, is a newly renovated three-story Chinese-style antique building with a large area. It is obviously not small to have such a large office building in the center of S?o Paulo. Flying eaves against the sky, the architectural style of Zhuzhengbiwa has opened the eyes of many Brazilians, especially when a ray of morning glow shines on the tiles, it seems to be made of jade. When the building was completed, the mayor personally came to congratulate it. Today''s Hongyitang Security Company is extremely lively. A young man in a black suit stands every two steps on the road on both sides of the gate, watching the crowd coming and going at the gate vigilantly. Further away, from time to time, you can see policemen in police uniforms on duty at intersections. There are red flower baskets on both sides of the company''s gate, extending from the gate through the front yard to the downstairs of the company building. In the middle of the building is a huge plaque decorated with red cloth, written in gold paint "Hongyitang" three big characters. The front yard was also full of sturdy figures in black suits. Soon, one after another cars slowly stopped at the gate, and middle-aged and elderly men in suits and leather shoes or jackets and long gowns got out from inside. Although each of these people looks inconspicuous, they walk with vigor and vigor. Obviously, they are all bigwigs. Every time a person gets off the car, a concierge will come forward to greet them, and after receiving the name card from the other party, they will sing loudly. "Hongmen Dasheng Hall in Hong Kong City, Hall Master Bai Cunbao, here!" "Penang Hongmen Yiyi Hall, owner Ji Wanchang, here!" "Nanyue Hongmen Yixing Hall, hall master Wei Shichang, here!" "New York Hongmen Sihaitang, hall master Fang Jinao, here!" "Lord of Hongmen Mountain in the world, Dagongtang, Mr. Situ, here!" As the crowd entered, someone had already stepped forward to lead the way and welcome everyone into the incense hall one by one. In the incense hall, smoke was lingering, and a group of sages of the Hongmen were enshrined in the middle. Everyone who entered the incense hall came forward to offer incense. Under the guidance again, he sat on the Taishi chairs on both sides of the incense hall. As time passed, the seats slowly filled up, and when Mr. Situ arrived, the conference officially began. A tall and thin middle-aged man, wearing a long robe and mandarin jacket, slowly came to the front of the incense hall, bowed his hands to everyone, and shouted loudly: "The auspicious time has come, today is the grand day for our Hongmen Brazil Branch Church - Hongyi Church to reopen. First of all, on behalf of Tianxia Hongmen General Church, I would like to extend my welcome to all of you. " Everyone stood up one after another, bowing their hands in return to the grandpa who presided over the ceremony. After everyone was seated, the auditorium master looked at the time, nodded to Mr. Situ, and then shouted loudly: "Respectfully invite the altar master." Mr. Situ got up when he heard the words and walked slowly to the front of the hall. The man standing on the side handed the three and a half sticks of incense that were lit in his hand to Mr. Situ. After receiving the incense, Mr. Situ said to everyone in the hall: "This Hong Yitang was originally a branch of my hometown, but due to the war, it was exiled in Brazil. Now there is Fang Xinshui, a descendant of Hong Yitang, who cannot bear my Chinese brothers being oppressed by foreigners. Today we sincerely invite heroes from all walks of life to witness together. " After speaking, he looked around at everyone in the hall. The people present today are all big figures such as the hall masters of various overseas churches. It is conceivable that the Hongmen main hall attaches great importance to the establishment of the Brazilian church. Everyone is also invited to witness the introduction of this new brother. Prepared for the whole ceremony. When Mr. Situ finished speaking, everyone stood up and responded loudly: "I am willing to be a witness!" Wait for everyone to finish speaking. Mr. Situ shouted in a deep voice to the door: "Fang Xinshui, a descendant of Hongyitang." Many men in white clothes and red trousers, red turbans, and God Bless Hong stood outside the incense hall, forming two lines. Hearing the shouting in the hall, he got up and repeated, "Fang Xinshui, the descendant of Chuan Hongyi Hall." Soon, Fang Xinshui was wearing a neat suit and combing his hair back. The hair on his head was shiny and shiny with pomade. He came over with strides. When the man dressed as Tianyouhong saw Fang Xinshui, he questioned him loudly: "The name of the visitor." "Fang Xinshui." "The identity of the visitor." "The descendants of Hong Yitang." "What''s the matter!" "Raise the flag of righteousness again!" Of course, these are all procedures that have been prepared and rehearsed in advance, Fang Xinshui did not panic at all. After the cross-examination by Tianyou Hong, Fang Xinshui stepped into the incense hall smoothly, and after he entered the gate of the incense hall. A middle-aged man in a black gown at the door handed over a stick of incense, Fang Xinshui took it with a nod, held the incense stick above his head, and slowly knelt down facing the incense table in front of the hall. The man in black and long gown saw Fang Xinshui knelt down and raised a thick-backed broadsword from behind. If a normal person kneels on the ground and someone lifts a thick-backed machete behind him, his legs will weaken and his whole body will tremble, which is similar to the feeling of going to the guillotine. Or those who are dishonest or double-minded will probably be worried, worrying that the deacon in charge of the edict, the red stick, will hack himself to death with a single knife. Fortunately, the deacon''s red stick just patted Fang Xinshui on the back with the back of the knife, and preached loudly: "Since entering the Hongmen, your parents are my parents, your brothers and sisters are my brothers and sisters, your wife is my sister-in-law, and your son is my nephew. If there is any violation, the five thunders will be destroyed." Fang Xinshui held up the incense sticks, repeating the words solemnly. After Fang Xinshui finished taking the oath, the red stick, the deacon in black and long gown, patted him on the back with the back of his knife again, and continued to preach: "If there are parents and brothers who have lived for a hundred years and have no money to bury them, if a white silk flies to them and asks for help, they will immediately tell those who have money to contribute money and those who have no money to contribute. "The overseas Hong family brothers in all provinces, whether they are scholars, farmers, businessmen, or visitors from the world, must stay for one night and two meals. If there is any fraud, they will be treated by outsiders and die under ten thousand knives." "Brothers of the Hong family, although they don''t know each other, if they meet someone with a fake name and talk about speculation, but they don''t recognize each other, they will die under ten thousand knives." . There are thirty-six oaths, and every time an oath is sworn, the deacon in black and long gown, the red stick, will pat Fang Xinshui on the back with the back of his knife. Until the thirty-six oaths were sworn, all the people in the incense hall vowed in unison: "There is treacherous loyalty in the oath, brothers all over the world are the same, loyal and loyal to the prince''s position, treacherous ministers turn against their bones and die under the knife." After taking the oath, Fang Xinshui stood up and inserted the incense stick in his hand into the copper incense burner in front of the incense table. After offering incense, Fang Xinshui consciously retreated behind Mr. Situ standing in front of the incense table. Mr. Situ smiled and nodded at Fang Xinshui with satisfaction. Then, the deacon Hongstick who led Fang Xinshui to take the oath, holding a fierce rooster in his left hand, and the thick-backed machete that had previously slapped Fang Xinshui''s back in his right hand, strode forward to the incense table. Muttering words in his mouth, he made sacrifices in all directions in the hall, and from time to time, he picked up the yellow paper on the incense table and lit it, throwing it around. After the sacrifice is completed, the big knife in the hand is raised and lowered, and the whole chicken head is chopped off. Poured the chicken blood into a bowl of white wine on the incense table. Mr. Situ at the side glanced at Fang Xinshui behind him and nodded to him. Fang Xinshui was not polite, he stepped forward, picked up a small dagger on the incense table, cut his finger, squeezed out a few drops of blood and mixed it into the wine bowl full of chicken blood.

Now it is resubmitting, it will cause inconvenience to everyone, please forgive me (end of this chapter) Chapter 366: Business Chapter 366 Business Mr. Situ on the other side did the same thing, cut his finger, and dripped blood into the wine bowl. After the wine and blood were mixed, Mr. Situ raised the wine bowl and turned to face everyone in the hall. As early as when the deacon cut the chicken head with a red stick, there were people in the hall who distributed a stick of incense to each guest invited to watch the ceremony. Seeing that everyone was holding incense sticks, Mr. Situ stepped forward slowly, knelt down facing the altar, and chanted loudly: "On Guimao Day, Yiwei Month, Bingxu Year, the 18th Hongmen Church in the world, the Hongmen Hongyi Church raised the flag of righteousness in Sao Paulo, Brazil, to protect our overseas Chinese brothers. Please bless our ancestors and all heroes of Hongmen." Everyone in the hall raised the incense sticks over their heads and knelt down facing the altar. When Mr. Situ finished reading, everyone followed suit: "Please bless the ancestors! All the heroes of the Hongmen bless you!" Then Mr. Situ sang loudly: "Today there is Fang Xinshui, the descendant of Hongyitang, who is chivalrous, courageous, and warm-hearted. He is well-known among the Chinese brothers in Brazil. He was recommended by them. Under our witness, he took office as the head of Hongyitang in Brazil. Under the jurisdiction of the Hongmen, abide by the rules of the Hongmen, and protect my Brazilian Chinese brothers. " After Mr. Situ finished singing, Fang Xinshui swore again: "We, Xinshui, today swear to our ancestors and heroes of the Hongmen that we will unite our brothers and protect China. We will abide by the thirty-six oaths. If you violate them, you will be punished with three knives and six holes." All the guests also stood up and sang, "We will witness together!" Then Mr. Situ picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, then handed the wine bowl to Fang Xinshui, who also took a sip. After the ceremony, everyone got up. Mr. Situ reached out to shake hands with Fang Xinshui and said with a smile on his face: "Xin Shui, all Chinese compatriots in Brazil in the future, I''ll leave it to you." Fang Xinshui also said with a smile on his face: "Don''t worry, Mr. Situ, as a Chinese, it is imperative. This time, Mr. Situ has worked so hard to come to preside over the ceremony for me at Hongyitang. Xinshui is very grateful. I have already booked a hotel, and this time I must not return home drunk. " Mr. Situ is a bold person. Although he is very old, he still said in a stage-fright way: "Haha. No problem. It''s rare that there are so many masters in the world. Everyone will not get drunk this time." Everyone around laughed out loud. Fang Xinshui also hurriedly said to the crowd: "On behalf of Hong Yitang, I would like to thank all of you who have come to Brazil to support us, The hotel has prepared, our Brazilian special wine and food, please be sure to eat and drink well. " "Master Fang, we are not here to eat and drink, you Hong Yitang has done a lot in your hometown, and the Hongmen in your hometown have followed you to make a fortune. Such a chance to make a fortune cant forget us! " A short, fat man with five short stature spoke directly. People around heard the words and frowned, looking a little displeased. Fang Xinshui understands that not all of these so-called Hongmen are heroes. More are actually gangsters. So, it''s no surprise that this was planned. Now the influence of Hongyitang in Brazil is still very weak. For these Hongmentangs that have developed for tens of hundreds of years, they naturally look down upon them, and naturally they will not be particularly polite when speaking. But everyone here is a guest, and it is impossible to directly fall out with others, so they can only smile and say: "It''s easy to say, easy to say. Business can sit down and talk slowly. Let''s have a light meal together first. Fang will not let everyone go for nothing. " Seeing Fang Xinshui showing weakness, the short and fat man nodded in satisfaction and didn''t say much. Mr. Situ took a look at this arrogant and domineering short fat man calmly, and did not speak. He knew that this person was Wei Shichang, the boss of Nanyue Hongmen. It is not necessarily true that this guy is very powerful. It can be heard that the French recently controlled South Vietnam, and this guy has a French officer on the list and contracted some logistics operations in France. He bought a lot of arms from French officers, and now has an armed force of more than a hundred people, so he has recently become a little arrogant. Even he, the lord of the Hongmen Mountain, is a little less in his eyes. What''s more, it''s the head of Hongmen, a poor place like Brazil. Therefore, Mr. Situ is not surprised by his attitude. In fact, the Hongmen is not an organization with very concentrated power, and the power of the Hongmen Mountain Lord is far less powerful than it seems. Now what Mr. Situ can control is the Hongmen organization in the United States. This Nanyue Hongmen hall master named Wei Shichang, besides being able to lead the opponent in name, Mr. Situ also has no possibility of kicking him from the position of hall master. Unless there are people under him who want to replace them, Mr. Situ can provide some help from the side, and then, after his subordinates succeed, directly identify with the orthodox identity of the Hongmen. Everyone left Xiangtang chatting and laughing, followed Fang Xinshui''s arrangement, walked out of Hongyitang building, and returned to the hotel where they were staying by car. Brazilian Hongyitang was in charge of arranging board and lodging this time, so Fang Xinshui directly booked a large hotel in Sao Paulo, where everyones board and lodging were arranged. After returning to the hotel, there were Hong Yitang boys in black suits maintaining order at the intersection. The waiters inside the hotel were also ready to welcome these bosses into the restaurant one by one. Fang Xinshui walked and chatted with Mr. Situ. "Xin Shui, I was on the road today, and I saw many policemen at every intersection helping to maintain order. It seems that you have a great influence in the local area!" Mr. Situ asked in obvious surprise. Fang Xinshui just smiled and said: "Where, where, the mountain master joked. Recently, the law and order in Sao Paulo is not very good. The police are cracking down on evil everywhere. So there are a lot of policemen on the road, which is also normal. " Looking at Fang Xinshui''s calm expression, it seems that everything is really as he said. But Mr. Situ is not so easy to fool. Looking at Fang Xinshuidao with a smile on his face: "Since the police are cracking down on crime on a large scale, how dare you set up a temple at this time. Dont be afraid of the Brazilian police coming to make trouble! " Fang Xinshui looked at Mr. Situ in surprise and said: "What did Mr. Situ say? We, Hongyitang, are a regular company and have a legal enterprise that pays taxes to the city government. Why should we be afraid of the police''s anti-crime and evil operations? " Mr. Situ was taken aback when he heard the words. What he said was so reasonable that I couldn''t refute it. "It''s me, Meng Lang, It seems that Xinshui has a completely different understanding of the development of Hongyitang from other Hongmentangs! " Fang Xinshui cupped his hands and said with a smile on his face: "Where, where, isn''t Mr. Situ also forming a political party? Our Hongyitang is not a gang organization, so of course we dont need to be afraid of the government. We pay them taxes, and they protect our interests as they should! " At this moment, Mr. Situ couldn''t help sighing that the younger generation is awesome! He never expected that this Hong Yitang in Brazil would not follow the routine at all, and blatantly corporatized the organization, and the name of the company was simply called Hong Yitang. But no one can say anything, after all, the other party has indeed registered the normal company procedures. "Then, Hong Yitang is planning to do righteous work in Brazil! I dont know what industry to engage in? " "Haha. Mr. Situ is right, our Hongyitang is a formal company in Brazil, The industry we are engaged in is naturally legitimate. For example, the current immigration company and real estate development company are the pillar industries of our Hongyitang. " "Can these regular companies have so many armed guards?" Mr. Situ said as he pointed to the younger brothers in black suits who were in charge of maintaining order. Fang Xinshui said with a nonchalant smile: "Mr. Situ, these are all professional security personnel from our newly established Hongyitang Security Company. They are all professional security guards with gun licenses. Isnt it normal to have guns? " Mr. Situ was stunned when he heard the words, and looked at Fang Xinshui even more surprised, which opened a new door for him. It turned out that in this way, the illegal armed forces could be legalized. Just learning this, this trip to Brazil is worthwhile. Think about the other partys current so-called immigration companies and labor service companies, arent they also engaged in human trade in essence? But the other party legalized the transaction by setting up a company. I have to say that Hong Yitang is really too smart. Following the conversation between the two, they have slowly walked into the banquet hall. As the host, Fang Xinshui is naturally responsible for entertaining the guests. So, after nodding to Mr. Situ, Fang Xinshui walked quickly into the banquet hall and greeted the guests. Finally, everyone arrived one after another, just waiting for the meal. Seeing a subordinate leaning towards Fang Xinshui''s ear and whispering a few words, Fang Xinshui turned his head and glanced at the other party in surprise, and received affirmative glances from the other party. Quickly nodded to everyone to apologize, and walked quickly to the hotel entrance. Everyone was a little strange at first, but soon there was a welcoming voice at the door: "Mayor of Sao Paulo, Mr. Scalia has arrived!" "Congratulations to Mr. Laurent Diabate, Chief of Police of Sao Paulo!" The appearance of these two people is obviously beyond everyone''s expectations. Most of the current Hongmen organizations in the world are secret associations. and the government are often hostile. Of course, Mr. Situs Hongmen organization in the United States actually has certain connections with some American politicians. However, no one dared to say that city government officials and police chiefs could attend the rally they organized. This is not to say that Hong Yitang has a close relationship with local government officials, because if you have a close personal relationship with an official, you can give them a lot of benefits, and it is no problem for others to wear a pair of pants with you in private. But even if this is the case, the other party will definitely not participate in the celebration organized by you as a public official on such a formal occasion. Brazilian Hongyitang can do it in Brazil. (end of this chapter) Chapter 367: Business between Hongmen At this time, Mr. Situ no longer believed that Fang Xinshui said that the police were on duty at the intersection because of the police''s recent anti-crime and evil operations. The elders of all parties present at the meeting were surprised. They did not expect that the Hongmen Hongyitang, which had just opened in Brazil, would have such great energy. After Fang Xinshui led the other party to a table and sat down, the entire banquet hall was spent in whispers. Fortunately, these people just had a meal and left. Even so, it really made everyone realize Hong Yitang''s strength in Brazil. After the banquet was over, Fang Xinshui organized a meeting at the hotel. Since the bosses of Hongmen in so many regions of the world are here, of course he wants to take this opportunity to make friends with everyone so that they can start some business cooperation in the future. Maybe these people are not engaged in good business in the local area, but as local snakes, they must also have a certain influence. "Master Wei, earlier you said you wanted to make a fortune with our Hongyitang, but I don''t know what kind of business you''re talking about!" Fang Xinshui''s first question was Wei Shichang, the master of Yixing Hall in Hongmen, Nanyue, who had taken the initiative to ask. "Haha. Hall Master Fang, the penicillin you sell in your hometown is a good thing. I wonder if you can supply it to Yixing Hall." When Wei Shichang asked Fang Xinshui''s question, he also directly stated his fancy business without any politeness. Fang Xinshui had expected this. In fact, Wei Shichang was not the first client who offered to buy penicillin. Unfortunately, the penicillin produced by the Fangyuan Group pharmaceutical factory is now shipped to the hometown in exchange for Chinese labor, and it is not sold abroad at all. Hearing the other party''s request, Fang Xinshui smiled and said: "Hehe. Hall Master Wei has a really good vision. There is nothing wrong with selling penicillin to you, but you must know that we don''t charge money. Our medicine is used to exchange people." Wei Shichang laughed loudly, and said indifferently: "Haha. Okay, Hall Master Fang is refreshing. We, Yixingtang, can provide the population you want. I dont know what kind of population you want, young and strong or women. " In fact, during this period, there were indeed a lot of Chinese in South Vietnam, and many of them were struggling on the poverty line in South Vietnam. Fang Xinshui saw that the people in Yixingtang were so straightforward, and thought that the other party wanted to cooperate with him in recruiting Chinese laborers from South Vietnam. also nodded with a smile and said: "It doesn''t matter, as long as you are a Chinese compatriot." Unexpectedly, after hearing the words, Wei Shichang frowned and asked: "What, Chinese compatriots? You only want Chinese? Let me tell you, we are a local Chinese gang that protects the interests of Chinese, how can we help you traffic Chinese people! No, no, isnt it labor? I can provide you with a large number of South Vietnamese, how? Promise to be obedient and willing to work. " Looking at Wei Shichang''s awe-inspiring look, Fang Xinshui only regarded him as a hero who truly protected the interests of the Chinese. But when he noticed that the faces of the people around Wei Shichang looked contemptuous, Fang Xinshui knew that this guy could not be as great as he said. Coughing lightly, Fang Xinshui shook his head with a smile and said: "Master Wei, I''m really sorry, what our Hongyitang needs is not simple labor. If you want labor, we have a lot in Brazil, and there is no need to recruit from other places. All we really need are Chinese. " Everyone looked at Fang Xinshui quite strangely, and everyone couldn''t understand what the significance of Hong Yitang''s doing this was. The various halls of Hongmen were originally organized spontaneously by some Chinese who were oppressed overseas to unite and protect themselves organize. It''s just that after a long period of development, everyone has grown stronger, and many churches have become gang organizations that lie on the Chinese and **** blood. For these halls, the Chinese on their own territory are originally sheep in their own sheepfold, so how could they sell to others. Of course, there are too many Chinese in some places, or some Chinese gangs will also attack Chinese compatriots who are better off for their own interests. Among them, human trafficking is the most common. Of course, most of them are women and children, while young adults and men are relatively rare. After all, there are even fewer opportunities to sell piglets at this time. But Hong Yitang''s current actions obviously want to buy piglets. Although I don''t understand the purpose of the other party, but do business! As long as there is a market and someone wants it, someone will naturally sell it. Before Wei Shichang could speak, Bai Cunbao from the Dasheng Hall in Hong Kong City had already spoken first. "Haha Hall Master Fang, it doesn''t matter, he doesn''t have any Chinese in South Vietnam who are willing to go to sea to work, and we have them in Hong Kong City! During the recent war, many people came to our port city with their families to make a living. But Hong Kong City is only so big, how can there be so many places for everyone to work! This is not right. You Hongyitang needs it, and our Dashengtang happens to have it. We just cooperate. Do you think its okay? " When Fang Xinshui heard this, his heart was moved. Originally, they had an immigrant reception point in Guangdong City in the south, but because Hong Kong City is relatively close, everyone has a certain understanding of Hong Kong City. More importantly, many people in Guangdong City have relatives in Hong Kong City. friend. Therefore, they are more willing to go to Hong Kong City, which leads to the fact that the business of immigration in Guangdong City is not as good as that in Shanghai and Jinmen. Now that Hongmen of Hong Kong City is willing to cooperate with him, he naturally nodded in agreement with joy on his face. "Really? That''s really great. Our labor service company has an office in Guangdong, and I''ll send someone to come and talk to you about cooperation." Wei Shi on the side slapped the table angrily and got up straight away, cursing at Bai Cunbao: "The surname is Bai, what do you mean, grab business with me, right?" Everyone is a mixed society. Bai Cunbao would not be afraid of Wei Shichang''s clamor. He sat on the chair and looked up at the other party, and said with disdain: "Why, I''m doing business with Hall Master Fang, what''s bothering you! You cant supply people, and you wont let others supply it. " Wei Shichang stared at Bai Cunbao with angry eyes, and said: "When did I say that there is no way to supply, isn''t it just a Chinese laborer? I have a lot of Chinese laborers in South Vietnam. " As he spoke, he turned his head and faced Fang Xinshuidao: "Master Fang, you want Chinese laborers, and I, Yixingtang, will take care of them. But lets talk about it first, the price of Chinese labor is higher than that of South Vietnamese labor. " Bai Cunbao on the side smiled disdainfully and said: "Hehe. I thought you Master Wei really wanted to protect the interests of the Chinese and unite the Chinese community, so you didn''t want to do business with Chinese laborers! It turns out that it is to add money! Everyone is a real person, if you want to add money, just say so! Why bother to think so hard! " Other people around, hearing this, all burst into laughter. For a moment, Wei Shichang''s face turned livid from anger, and he was about to turn against Bai Cunbao through gritted teeth. Fang Xinshui, as the host, of course cannot let this kind of thing happen. Although he also despised Wei Shichang''s behavior, he had to stand up and say to everyone: "Both calm down, calm down, make money! Not shabby. We are all Hongmen brothers, dont hurt your peace because of a little thing. Give my little brother a face, everyone sit down and talk, sit down and talk. " Although Wei Shichang is a bit domineering, he is not stupid. After all, this is not his own territory. He brought less than ten younger brothers to watch the ceremony. If he really wants to conflict with Bai Cunbao of Hong Kong City, he may not be able to get benefits. . So, when he heard Fang Xinshui''s words, he took advantage of the situation of the donkey going down the **** and sat down. But after all, it was the boss of one party. Although he didn''t say anything more, he gave Bai Cunbao a hard look on his face, unwilling to admit defeat. That expression is obviously saying harsh words, you look like you are waiting for me. Bai Cunbao didn''t care about this, and didn''t even bother to look at him. Fang Xinshui gave himself face when he saw everyone. Knowing that there are so many people, if he went to discuss business one by one, he might not be able to do business. So, he stood up and said to everyone: Brothers in the same school, thank you very much for traveling thousands of miles to Sao Paulo to witness the opening of Hongyi Church in Brazil. I am very honored to welcome you all, When you arrive in Brazil, you want to talk about some business, which is perfectly normal. Since Hall Master Wei took the initiative to mention it, someone on our side stopped hiding it. Now our Hong Yitang main business in Brazil is labor dispatch company and immigration company. Of course, there are real estate and security companies in China. As Hall Master Wei said, the commodities we can sell, except for some basic daily necessities, are penicillin. However, I have to make it clear here that if you want penicillin, our rules are equal. No matter which region or country you are from, as long as you want to obtain penicillin from us, you must use Chinese labor in exchange. The exchange price is the same as at home. If you are interested, you can talk to me about it. " Hearing the words, everyone looked at each other, and their hearts moved. After all, penicillin at this time is indeed priced like gold, and the countries that can produce it are the powerful countries in Europe and the United States and Brazil. It''s not that they can''t buy products from European and American powers, the main reason is that the price is relatively high, and they must pay for real money. There is no such thing as a transaction with Brazil Hongyitang, it is cost-effective to directly exchange population. When Wei Shichang heard what Fang Xinshui said, he was very dissatisfied. I just said that I need to add money, but you said that the price will be unified. Isnt this just not giving face! However, seeing that all the halls in other regions are a little ready to move, he also knows that it is impossible for him to change this situation alone. I can only curse in my heart that other people are blind to money. After some negotiations, Fang Xinshui''s Hong Yitang reached a cooperation agreement with several Hongmen''s halls, and traded drugs for people. Of course, not everyone is willing to participate in this kind of business. After all, the Chinese population in most areas is not concentrated, and there is not much surplus, so this kind of population transaction is simply impossible. Although the world in this period is generally peaceful, it is actually the peak period for most colonies to become independent and engage in revolution. Fang Xinshui, who is far away in Brazil, doesn''t understand these things. Of course, even if he knows, he can''t participate in it. But Mr. Situ, who is the head of the Hongmen Hall, understands this, so he is very dissatisfied with the behavior of many people who only think about immediate interests in exchange for medicines. Coughed twice and said to the crowd: "Everyone, don''t just focus on the Lilan of the medicine. Didn''t everyone notice the other products that Hall Master Fang just mentioned? Thinking that the world is full of wars, agricultural production has been severely damaged. There is a food shortage in many places. Havent you ever thought about buying some food to go back to ensure the survival of our Chinese compatriots? Take your port city of Baicunbao as an example, dont you lack food? Gangcheng does not produce grain. " Chapter 368: Yi Yi Tangs new business It''s a pity that although everyone knows this situation, it is obvious that the value of food is not as valuable as medicine. More importantly, the Hongmen gang is not a charity organization, so how could they purchase food and go back to ensure everyone''s survival! It is obviously naive to bring up such a topic. Fang Xinshui knew that everyone didn''t care just by looking at their expressions. Worried that Mr. Situ might arouse everyone''s resentment if he continued to speak, so he quickly took the initiative to say: "Mr. Situ is right. In addition to providing medicines, we can also ship some grain to you for a test sale. If the sales are good, you can also consider starting a grain business!" Mr. Situ is not really naive. He can see from the faces of everyone that everyone treats the so-called purchase of food to ensure the survival of the Chinese people. Thinking of something, Situ sighed softly, and didn''t say much. The other hall masters took the initiative to play haha, echoing Fang Xinshui''s proposal, but I can personally see everyone''s perfunctory feelings. It is obviously difficult to continue the entire meeting in this atmosphere. In this case, Fang Xinshui had to take the initiative to announce the end of the meeting. The elders at various halls also got up and left the venue one after another. Whether they had gained or not, everyone on the surface said goodbye to Fang Xinshui with smiles on their faces. Fang Xinshui also stood at the door, politely seeing off every elder present at the meeting. After everyone left, Fang Xinshui returned to the venue, only to find that there were still two people who hadn''t left. One of them was really Mr. Situ, the master of Hongmen Mountain, while Fang Xinshui was a little surprised by the other person, because this person seemed very low-key from the beginning to the end. I had very little communication with everyone, and I didnt participate in the drug-for-population business. Mr. Situ saw Fang Xinshui returning to the venue, got up and greeted Fang Xinshui: "Xin Shui, let me introduce you. This is Ji Wanchang, the master of Yiyi Hall in Hongmen, Penang. This time, I have a business and I want to talk to you!" Fang Xinshui was taken aback when he heard the words, what''s going on, wasn''t he talking about business just now! Why don''t you make a sound? Now that everyone has left, you are talking about business. Is it some kind of shady business? Ji Wanchang is a relatively rare big and tall man in this era. He is 180 cm tall and has a relatively thin body, but he does not look thin at all. Instead, he has a lean and lean feeling. The hair looks like it has just grown out after being shaved. The two eyes were very energetic, as if seeing through Fang Xinshui''s doubts, he took the initiative to reach out and said: "Hello, Hall Master Fang, my name is Ji Wanchang, and I am the hall master of Yiyi Hall in Hongmen, Penang. This time I am in Brazil and want to discuss a business with your family." Fang Xinshui fixed his eyes upon hearing the words, glanced at Mr. Situ, and then at Ji Wanchang. Only then slowly took Ji Wanchang''s outstretched hand, and said calmly: "Oh! Hall Master Ji wants to discuss business with the Fang family. I don''t know what kind of business you want to discuss. Can you talk to me first?" Feeling the strength from his hand, Ji Wanchang smiled, and said calmly: I heard from Mr. Situ that the U.S. Universal Group belongs to the Fang family, and the U.S. military has a close relationship with the U.S. military. I want to purchase a batch of arms through the Fang family. I wonder if Hall Master Fang can help. " Glancing at Mr. Situ who was smiling and nodding to himself, Fang Xinshui took another careful look at the lean man in front of him. As a Fang family member, he knows that Fang Lang has cooperated with many senior members of the US military''s logistics department to set up a company called Shata, which is responsible for cleaning up the US military''s stockpile of arms around the world. Procurement of arms is of course no problem. But looking at the current situation, this guy is not a simple character. He wanted to sell arms and found himself here. There are some intriguing questions here. But he glanced at Mr. Situ next to him, and he didn''t say much, because he knew that Fang Lang respected Mr. Situ very much. Since Mr. Situ came forward, obviously, he wanted to be a middleman. Thinking of this, Fang Xinshui didn''t say much, just smiled at the two of them, let go of Ji Wanchang''s hand and said: "Hehe. Sorry, I can''t decide on this matter. However, since Mr. Situ is here, I definitely want to save face. How about this! The two will stay in the hotel first, and I will go back and ask my family for their opinions. Notify the two of you as soon as there is a result, how about it? " Master Situ laughed loudly when he heard the words: "Haha. Of course no problem, it should be. This time, the old man cut it first and played it later. He didn''t make it clear to Xin Shui first, so he came to the door directly. It''s so abrupt, please Xinshui don''t take it to heart. " Glanced at Mr. Situ''s son Fang Xinshui and didn''t say much. Ji Wanchang on the side is also a little embarrassed to Fang Xinshui: "Master Fang, I''m really sorry to cause you trouble!" For Fang Xinshui, the arms transaction is actually trivial, just a business. As long as you give me money, there is nothing I cannot sell you. Besides, as far as he knows, the Shata Company is originally engaged in arms trading. As long as you give me money, there is nothing I cannot sell to you. But looking at the meaning of the two people in front of them, this is obviously not a simple arms transaction. For a while, he couldn''t figure out what the two of them meant, but he didn''t bother to worry about it. Let his nephew worry about this kind of thing! Thinking of Fang Xinshui here, he just nodded to the two of them and said: "You two go back to your room and wait for the call!" After finishing speaking, he turned and left without looking back. To be honest, it is not very polite to do this. Others are guests from afar, so they leave the other party in the hotel and turn around and leave. But these two people obviously have ulterior motives. Although old man Situ is the master of Hongmen Mountain, he will not be polite to anyone who cares about his family. Didn''t directly turn over the table at the scene, it was because of Fang Lang''s respect for Mr. Situ. Although he is now the head of Hong Yitang under the Hongmen, he is not appointed by Mr. Situ as the head of the hall. It was also left behind by my grandfather, who originally belonged to my family, and now I can only be regarded as returning to the organization, but this organization is not yours, Mr. Situ, and the Fang family does not need to be saddled with Mr. Situ, just follow orders! Looking at Fang Xinshui''s back, Ji Wanchang looked at Mr. Situ worriedly and said: "Old man, do you think their Fang family can agree?" Master Situ looked at the direction Fang Xinshui left, shook his head and said: "I don''t know either, I haven''t contacted the real person in power of the Fang family, so I don''t know what he would think. But I heard from Fang Jinao that the young man from the Fang family is a powerful person. At the same time, he is also a person with principles and a bottom line. However, judging from their attitude towards the Chinese, I think there is still great hope. " Ji Wanchang nodded when he heard the words, but didn''t say anything more. After Fang Xinshui left the hotel, he got in the car and went directly to each Fang Xinshan''s home, because at this time Fang Lang was returning to his home with his two girlfriends. The place where the Fang family lives now is of course not the original two-story building, although the entire Fang family mansion has not been completely completed. But the first Chinese-style garden has been built. For safety reasons, Fang Xinshan and his family''s old man have moved here to live. When Lilith and Vivian came to St. Paul Fang''s house and saw this unique Chinese-style building, they were all shocked. Originally, today was also an important moment for Fangs family. After all, Hong Yitang was the property left by Taizu Fang Lang, and now it has reopened in Brazil. The whole family should be present to witness this great moment. However, the old man felt that the so-called Hong Yitang was not a real business, so he was not willing to get involved. It happened that Fang Lang brought his girlfriend to the house. For the old man, the grandson''s daughter-in-law of the eldest son of the house is much more important than Hong Yitang, the grandson of the old man. So, the entire Fang family was very lively today, especially when they found out that two of the girls who came over were granddaughters-in-law, everyone was in disbelief at first. Fortunately, polygamy is also a tradition in my hometown, and everyone''s ability to accept this matter is still very strong. Except for the resentful expression on his father Fang Xinshan''s face, everyone is very happy. When Fang Xinshui entered the house, everyone had finished dinner and was sitting in the large living room, drinking tea, eating fruits and chatting. Fang Xinshui, who had just entered the door, saw a beautiful girl sitting on either side of Fang Lang, one with black hair and one with blonde hair, both of whom were first-class beauties. I was a little dazed for a while, didn''t I mean to take my nephew and daughter-in-law home to have a look? Which one is this! Should I speak up? It''s not embarrassing if you get it wrong. Fortunately, when his wife saw him coming in, she immediately got up and greeted him, and said to Fang Xinshui: "Don''t be dumbfounded, these two are your nephew and daughter-in-law." As he said that, he quietly stuffed two big red envelopes into Fang Xinshui''s hands from behind. Fang Xinshui''s eyes widened when he heard the words, and brought back two nieces and daughters-in-law at the same time, and looked at his daughter-in-law dumbfoundedly, wondering if he heard it wrong. Fang Lang smiled when he saw Fang Xinshui coming back, stood up and said to Lilith and Vivian beside him: "This is my uncle, call him uncle." The two girls got up very generously together, smiled sweetly at Fang Xinshui and said: "Hi Uncle, I''m Lilith!" "Hi Uncle, I''m Vivian!" Fang Xinshui, who called out this time, felt a little flustered, and quickly laughed and said: "Okay, everything is fine!" As he spoke, he divided the red envelopes that his daughter-in-law had just given him, and each of them shared one. The two girls were not polite, they accepted the red envelope generously, and said to Fang Xinshui again: "Thank you uncle!" "Haha. You''re welcome! You''re welcome! Sit down, sit down, Im really sorry today, uncle was delayed by something today, so Im only coming back now. " Fang Xinshui couldn''t see his eyebrows with a smile, obviously he was very satisfied with having two such beautiful nieces and daughters-in-law. Involuntarily gave Fang Lang a thumbs up. Fang Lang smiled triumphantly when he saw this. The two girls blushed a little from the uncle''s thumb. Fang Xinshui''s daughter-in-law is a white Brazilian. When she saw her man''s unbecoming appearance, she angrily grabbed the soft flesh of his waist and pushed him aside. Fang Xinshui didn''t expect to be attacked by surprise, so he cried out in pain. Others burst out laughing when they saw this. Now even Fang Xinshui''s daughter-in-law felt a little embarrassed. It turned out that he, a white daughter-in-law, was not liked by the old man at home. In addition, he gave birth to two daughters, so the old man didn''t look good. Now seeing my nephew bring back two white wives, I feel like I have found an organization. He wanted to see how the old man treated these two granddaughters-in-law. After communicating during the day today, she found that the old man obviously liked the two granddaughters-in-law very much, and he even got a lot of praise for his foreign daughter-in-law who was not very popular. Therefore, at this time, Fang Lang''s two girlfriends are most satisfied, not necessarily Fang Lang''s mother, but his aunt. After laughing for a while, everyone sat down to chat again. Of course, the content of the topic was nothing more than the woman''s parents and family situation! Fang Lang''s attitude and opinion! some type of. Chapter 369: Conjectures about Yiyitang Chapter 369 Conjecture about Yiyitang After a lot of trouble, Fang Xinshui winked at Fang Lang when he had some free time, indicating that he had something to talk to alone. Fang Lang nodded knowingly, patted the hands of the two girls around him, explained softly, got up slowly, and walked to the small tea room with Fang Xinshui. Seeing Fang Lang get up from the middle of the two girls and come to him, Fang Xinshui directly stepped forward to embrace Fang Lang''s shoulder and said: "My good boy, you are really a blessing to everyone!" Fang Lang smiled and joked: "Oh! It seems that uncle envies me very much! I''ll talk to my aunt later, and say that you also want to enjoy the blessing of being equal to others." Hearing this, Fang Xinshui was so frightened that he broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly turned his head and looked in the direction of his wife. Seeing that the other party was not looking at him, he let out a sigh of relief: "I''m your uncle, you can''t hurt me like this, I don''t have the ability to pick off the two sisters of this family. " "Uncle, shouldn''t you worry now that the two flowers in your own house will not be picked?" Amusedly, he glanced at Fang Xinshui, who was obviously henpecked, before saying very heartbreakingly. Sure enough, Fang Xinshui''s entire face collapsed when he heard Fang Lang''s words. Said in a bad tone: "You big brother, don''t talk nonsense! That''s your own sister, you have to help watch it tight. If you are cheated by that bad boy, I will ask you! " Fang Xinshui''s words made Fang Lang''s head full of black lines, why should his sister be held accountable for being cheated by others. Can''t be provoked, can''t be provoked. hurriedly opened the mouth and said: "My sister is so smart, how could she be deceived!" Seeing that the two had reached the small tea room, Fang Lang quickly changed the subject and said: "Why did today''s ceremony go smoothly!" While talking, he sat on the main seat of the tea table in the tea room. When he saw the tea table, there was a box of cigars on the tea table. He picked one up, and took out one himself. Fang Xinshui took the cigar handed over by Fang Lang, sat down opposite Fang Lang, and said: "The ceremonies have been rehearsed long ago, so what can go wrong. However, I found that the Hongmen is not as powerful as I imagined. In fact, the halls in various places have only so much respect for Mr. Situ in the main hall. " Fang Lang, who was putting the cigar under his nose, smelled the fragrance, smiled and said: "Hongmen is not an organization with centralized power, and each hall has its own dominance. If you really have to listen to the command of the main hall in everything, I will not let you raise the banner of Hong Yitang. If you really want to do this, dont you find yourself a mother-in-law! What we need is this name and the influence of Hongmen around the world. When we go out in the future, we can always find some connections no matter where it is. It is safer than going blindly. By the way, you have to be careful when dealing with people from the Hongmen, there are many people here who are not good people. Gender relationship was useless, and was sold directly. " Fang Xinshui said with a smile while cutting a cigar: "Is your uncle that stupid? He has been in the Jianghu for so many years, how could he not understand the dangers of the Jianghu. I can see it this time. The so-called uniting Chinese compatriots and safeguarding the interests of Chinese are slogans. The eyes of these people are business, only profit. But Mr. Situ still has some feelings. " "Hehe. Why, I received such a great education when we met for the first time. It seems that I have experienced something today!" Fang Lang looked at his uncle with such an expression and smiled. Fang Xinshui had nothing to hide from his nephew, so he directly told everyone that they were looking for him for business, and that everyone only wanted medicine and not food. Especially the matter that Wei Shichang, the head of Nanyue Yixing Hall, wanted to increase the price. After finishing speaking, he smiled disdainfully. Fang Lang, who heard the place name Nanyue, stopped his movements, and couldn''t help thinking of what Vivienne said about France going to war in Indochina. After thinking about it, he slowly opened his mouth and said: "This South Vietnamese guy is so desperate for penicillin, is there a war over there?" Fang Xinshui obviously didn''t understand the situation over there, so he could only shake his head and say: "I really don''t know this. It''s too far away from us. If you want to know, I can ask." Shaking his head, Fang Lang said with a serious expression on his face: "No, don''t ask, I''ll investigate through other channels!" Fang Xinshui asked Fang Xinshui about this kind of thing. The other party is just a Hongmen, and he may have a better understanding of the situation in the local rivers and lakes, but he is definitely not particularly clear about the general situation of the country. Seeing Fang Lang''s expression was a little solemn, thinking of Fang Lang''s question just now, Fang Xinshui said with some doubts: "What''s the matter, is there going to be a war over there?" "It''s not very clear now, I heard a little news, maybe the French are going to do something there." "It''s so far away from us, we can''t control it!" Fang Lang heard the words, nodded helplessly and said: "Yes! The distance is too far, we really can''t control it. Besides, since the French want to do something, even if we want to control it, it will be difficult for us to intervene! " "These Frenchmen, their own country is still in a mess! They even have the leisure to go to Asia to stir up trouble." Fang Xinshui lit a match with some displeasure, and lit the cigar. Fang Lang heard the words, smiled and didn''t say much, but looked at Fang Xinshui and said: "You called me over here, what''s the matter?" After taking a strong puff of the cigar, Fang Xinshui leaned back on the stool to make himself more comfortable, and then slowly said: "There is a matter. After the banquet, Mr. Situ and Ji Wanchang, the head of the Hongmen Yiyi Hall in Penang, stayed alone. They told me that they heard that the Fang family''s Global Group has a good relationship with the US military, and they wanted to use our Fang family''s channel to purchase arms. I feel that the other party should have other plans, and I dare not agree. I wont talk to you about this. Lets see what you think. " Fang Lang frowned when he heard the words, and after careful consideration, he said: "The other party didn''t mention Shata Company?" "No." "It means that our Fang family has a good relationship with the US military and wants to purchase a batch of arms through us." Hearing this, Fang Lang fell into deep thought for a while, and said after a long while: "This man named Ji Wanchang, have you gotten to know him?" "No, he didn''t participate when we were discussing medicines. Instead, he stayed alone and asked us to purchase arms. If it wasn''t for Mr. Situ, I wouldn''t bother him. " Hearing the words, Fang Lang fell into deep thought again. Penang belongs to Malaysia. In his previous life, Fang Lang would often go there when he was running a boat. But Fang Lang is not familiar with Malaysia during this period. According to the geographical knowledge of later generations, we can know that Singapore is now a country split from Malaysia. Moreover, this country is still a country where the Chinese occupy the majority. But the leader of this country seems to be surnamed Li, obviously it should be very different from the person surnamed Ji. Although Singapore in later generations is a developed country with Chinese as the main body, the Chinese in this country are more nationalistic than nationalistic, and they don''t have much sense of identity with their hometown. Of course, this country is not completely devoid of people who yearn for their hometown. The reason why Fang Lang thought of this was because the other party took such a big detour to find him to buy arms, which was obviously not a weapon for the gang to prepare for a fight. The biggest possibility is to rebel and set up a rebel army. With the little knowledge of Malaysian history that Fang Lang said he knew, it is impossible to know what is going on in Malaysia in this period. He only knew that Singapore in later generations was independent from Malaysia. Malaysia has a very large Chinese population. When later generations passed by Malaysia, they learned about it. It seems that the Chinese are the second largest ethnic group in Malaysia, but unfortunately they are only second-class citizens. And also experienced many racial murders. If Ji Wanchang really wants to do something in Malaysia this time, Fang Lang will definitely do it with both hands. Now that I have come to this era, I can''t just watch the Chinese being harvested by those Malay monkeys again. Fang Lang thought of this without hesitation, and directly faced Fang Xinshuidao: "How about it! Make an appointment with the other party tomorrow, and I will chat with Mr. Ji Wanchang." Fang Xinshui heard that Fang Lang already had an idea in his heart, nodded and asked: "Where is Mr. Situ?" After pondering for a while, Fang Lang knew that since the other party found Fang Xinshui through Mr. Situ, Mr. Situ must also be an insider, so he just opened up the chat together, so he said: "You and Mr. Situ together! Let''s sit down and talk together." "Okay, I''ll call them when I get back." After the negotiation was completed, Fang Lang did not leave immediately, but lit a cigar, sat in the tea room while smoking, and carefully recalled the situation in Malaysia in the impression of later generations. Hope to do some homework in advance. Recalling the actions of the French in South Vietnam, he picked up the phone again and called Blackwell of the Brazilian Intelligence Agency, asking him to provide him with some information on Southeast Asia. I couldn''t help but feel a little dissatisfied with my inability to obtain enough information. It seems that my investigation department needs to increase investment! In the future, these places where Chinese people live will have to send intelligence personnel to collect local intelligence on a regular basis. After working on a cigar, Fang Lang returned to the family again, and accompanied Lilith and Vivian to chat with his parents and grandfather until late before resting. The next day, Fang Lang got up early in the morning, brought gifts, and accompanied his grandfather to the Bajiquan Gym less than one kilometer away from his home, to visit his master, Bajiquan Li Yunze''s family. The newly built Bajiquan gymnasium is very large, and it is a three-entry Chinese-style compound. The thick gate is about one foot high. On the vermilion gate, there is a huge mahogany plaque with the words "Li''s Eighth Class Boxing Gym" written in gold lacquer on it. After entering the gate, there is a huge training ground, which can accommodate more than a hundred people to practice boxing at a time. At this moment, in the boxing gym, there are already more than 30 teenagers around the age of 16 to 17, led by Li Yunze''s son, squatting on horseback, practicing Zhuang Gong. Li Yunze''s son, Li Xiangang, looks thick and big-eyed, and is about the same age as Fang Lang, but he is actually younger than Fang Lang. He is just twenty years old this year. Judging by his appearance, he is an honest and honest person, and he is indeed a person with real kung fu on hand. Seeing him practicing boxing with these young people in the martial arts hall, with a serious look, he knew that he should have received the true biography of the master. Grandfather Fang Jiayong obviously came to the martial arts gym often, and when everyone saw the old man, they all nodded and called the old man. Li Xiangang greeted the old man, and when he saw Fang Lang following in, he was taken aback for a moment, but he quickly realized that he stopped what he was doing, smiled at Fang Lang and said: "Junior brother, you are here!" Yes, although Li Xiangang is younger than Fang Lang, he is Fang Lang''s senior brother. (end of this chapter) Chapter 370: Baji Boxing Gym Chapter 370 Bajiquan Gym As Master Li''s own son, of course he is also the other party''s direct disciple, and Fang Lang can only be ranked second. According to his seniority, Fang Lang must call Li Xiangang a senior. Fang Lang is very used to this kind of seniority. In his previous life, he was in his thirties and had a little uncle who was less than 18 years old! So, seeing Li Xiangang, Fang Lang bowed his hands to Li Xiangang very politely and said: "Brother, long time no see." The two greeted each other, and Li Xiangang said to the youths squatting in the yard: "No one is allowed to be lazy during the time of two sticks of incense. If one person is lazy, everyone will stand for an extra stick of incense. He Yuankui, you are in charge of supervision." A big boy who looked very strong in the team shouted yes. Everyone looked pained, but they didn''t dare to make any moves. After explaining to the children who had practiced, Li Xiangang turned his head and said to Fang Lang: "Junior brother, let me take you to see your father. My sister and the others came back yesterday, and my mother said that she would let you have dinner at home! My dad said he was busy and would come over when he was free. Unexpectedly, you came over this early in the morning. " Fang Lang smiled, pointed to his grandfather and said: "I made an appointment with the old man last night. Now that I am home, I must come to see the master. By the way, I will also see if the master can officially teach me to practice Bajiquan." After speaking, he pointed to the teenagers who were practicing martial arts in the courtyard and said: "Where did these little guys come from!" Li Xiangang didn''t have much contact with Fang Lang, but he also knew that his junior was his family''s savior. Whether in Brazil or in the United States, they are rare big shots. So, when Li Xiangang faced Fang Lang, it was difficult for him to take on the airs of a big brother, but instead revealed a trace of respect. Hearing Fang Lang''s words, while leading the way in front, walking to the backyard, he said to Fang Lang: "This is all, the Chinese children in the village, everyone is taking advantage of the school holidays to come to the boxing gym to practice boxing. Mostly the old men in the family sneaked here. At first, they were reluctant, but now they are somewhat resigned to their fate. " Hearing this, Fang Lang laughed loudly: "These little bastards, it is time to find a place for them to take care of them. Now it is good to practice martial arts in the martial arts hall to strengthen your body. Otherwise, I dont know how many troubles I have caused by playing crazy outside. These people can still teach them! In the future, we plan to let Bajiquan enter our Chinese schools, and every Chinese student can take this course. " "Teach me, although these little guys are a bit naughty, they are still very physically fit. Each of them is very strong, and there should be two good players. " "Oh! It''s rare to have two good players." The old man walking beside Fang Lang also smiled when he heard this: "Now everyone''s life is easier, the house is full of milk, beef and mutton can be made well, can the physical fitness be bad? Show strength! Let me tell you, don''t look at them as small, just relax your requirements on them. Two good players are not enough, you have to train them all. " Hearing this, Li Xiangang looked a little embarrassed, and Fang Lang said helplessly beside him: "Grandpa, you need to pay attention to talent when practicing Kung Fu. Not everyone is suitable for practicing Kung Fu, and not everyone is suitable for practicing Bajiquan. Forcing them to practice, it may not necessarily be able to practice well. At that time, when the masters of other schools come to open the gym to teach students, some people have no talent in eighth-level boxing, and other kung fu can do it! It always allows us Chinese to have a good physical fitness and no longer be easily bullied. " The old man heard the words and knew that he couldn''t force it, so he could only nod his head. Everyone stepped across the first courtyard, came to the second courtyard, bypassed a screen wall, and saw that the middle of the second courtyard was also a martial arts training ground, and the space was about the same size as the front yard. At this time, there were fifty or sixty young people in the middle of the field, practicing Bajiquan routines step by step, and Li Yunze was standing at the front and watching. Li Yunze saw the few people who came in at a glance, smiled and nodded at the old man. The old man also nodded with a smile, obviously the two are already very familiar with each other. Fang Lang''s eyes met his master, but he felt his whole body tense, as if he was being watched, and he wanted to teach himself a lesson. I don''t know if it''s an illusion. But Fang Lang still licked his face, and smiled at Li Yun. Master didn''t say much, he just shook his head towards the back, signaling Li Xiangang to take everyone to the backyard first. Li Xiangang didn''t say much, he just led everyone around the corridor and walked to the backyard. Originally, according to the rules of big families, no one could enter and leave the backyard casually. But now Master Lis family regards the martial arts gym as their home. The two courtyards in front of them are places to teach apprentices to practice martial arts, and the backyard is where his family lives. In addition to Fang Lang''s relationship with his master, when he visits at home, he will naturally be welcomed into the backyard. Fang Lang glanced at the young people in the yard, obviously none of them grew up in their overseas Chinese village. Moreover, they all seemed to have some foundation in martial arts, and asked Li Xiangang beside him: "Why do you have so many apprentices so quickly?" "Oh! These were sent by the immigration company, saying that they were Bajiquan coaches trained for Chinese schools. They are all young people who have just immigrated and have some martial arts foundation. Now my father mainly teaches everyone the routines and force-generating skills of Bajiquan, and then organizes everyone to practice in pairs. Familiarize yourself with the actual fighting style of Bajiquan as soon as possible. After the school for Chinese children starts, they will be arranged to teach in the following schools. " Li Xiangang explained in a low voice in Fang Lang''s ear. Hearing the words, Fang Lang nodded, and said to the elder brother: "I saw that there are only fifty or sixty people here, how long will it take for these people to obtain the corresponding coaching qualifications! Many of our schools seem to have already started classes. Will the time be too rushed? " Li Xiangang''s expression froze when he asked this question. Obviously, he didn''t know his father''s qualification standards for these coaches. can only be a little embarrassed: "You may have to ask my father about this, he hasn''t told me about this." The three of them said that they had come to the main room facing the second courtyard. The main room was very spacious, and in the middle hung a portrait of an old man wearing a round cap and full of beards. Fang Lang also saw this portrait for the first time, and couldn''t help being taken aback. Fortunately, Li Xiangang knew that although his junior brother was said to be his junior brother, he hadn''t actually started to formally learn from his father, so he definitely didn''t know much about Bajiquan. smiled and said: "This is the patriarch of our Bajiquan, named Wu Zhong." Fang Lang coughed twice to cover up his embarrassment. After all, he is now nominally one of the heirs of Bajiquan. He didn''t expect that he didn''t even know his ancestor, and it would make people laugh if he said it. Eye. Even the old man turned his face away in embarrassment, not daring to look at the person in the portrait, for fear that the other person would jump out of the portrait and tear his grandson, who bullied his master and ancestors, into pieces. Everyone did not stop and passed through the main room, but walked into the backyard. The area of ??the backyard is not small, but compared to the two front yards, it is obviously much smaller. After bypassing the screen wall, it is not the same as before, it is a martial arts training ground. Instead, a lot of green plants have been planted, which looks lush and lush. There is also a rockery next to the screen wall, which looks like a Jiangnan garden. As soon as he got out of the screen wall, Li Xiangang shouted into it. "Mom! Mr. Fang and Junior Brother Fang are here!" Soon there were three figures coming out from the main room at the back, one of them was a middle-aged woman, she stepped forward to warmly greet the three of them: "Oh! The old man is here, come in quickly, come in and sit down quickly. There is also Langer, who is also here, come in quickly, come in quickly. Yumei, hurry up and pour tea for the old man and your senior brother. " Obviously, the old man often came to the master''s backyard to visit, and he waved to Mrs. Fang Lang and said: "Sister-in-law of the Li family, stop busy, we are all neighbors, I am a bad guest who comes almost every day, but I can''t afford to greet you like this every day. These are your two daughters! It''s so handsome. " Fang Lang also yelled at the stitches: "Master!" Ms. Fang Lang didn''t react until she heard the old man''s words, and quickly stopped the two sisters and said to old man Li: "Oh! Look at my brain, Yumei, Yulan, come quickly to meet your brother''s grandfather. Master Fang, it is thanks to Mr. Fang that your father and I are here. " As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and pulled the two daughters to the old man, pointed at them, and introduced to old man Fang respectively: "This is sister Li Yumei, this is sister Li Yulan. Call grandpa!" The two sisters obediently called out to Mr. Fang, "Grandpa." Seeing the pair of beautiful twins, the old man obviously liked them very much, and his face turned into a flower with a smile. laughed repeatedly: "Hahaha good, good, good, all good. Come, come, here are the red envelopes given to you by grandpa, here is one for each of you, accept it quickly. " Taking advantage of the time when the sisters greeted the old man, the teacher also nodded to Fang Lang with a smile and said: "Hmm! Come in and sit!" I greeted Fang Lang. Turning around and seeing the red envelope that the old man took out, he smiled and said to the two sisters: "Thank you grandpa!" Understanding that this is the red envelope that the mother agreed with the old man of the two, the two sisters thanked him repeatedly, and while accepting the red envelope handed over by the old man, they said to the old man: "Thank you Grandpa!" Fang Lang also stepped forward and handed the gift in his hand to his wife and said: "Master, here are some small gifts I brought back from Natal. They are all food. I will give them to you and the master to try." Master took it with a smile on her face, not being polite to Fang Lang at all. "Okay, okay, okay, Lang''er has a heart, my wife is not polite to you. Come in and sit down. " As he spoke, he welcomed the old man and Fang Lang into the main room in the backyard and sat down. The sisters of the Li family quickly served tea to Fang Lang and the old man. Everyone chatted about the study of the two sisters of the Fang family for a while, and the master Li Yunze walked in. Fang Lang hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Master!" Li Yun smiled at Fang Lang and nodded, "Yeah", and Fang Lang, who thought he was going to be taught a lesson, breathed a sigh of relief. The master has already started talking with the old man. After chatting for a few words, the old man pointed at Fang Lang and said: "Master Li, you have real kung fu. Although my eldest grandson has already worshiped you as a teacher, he has never really learned from you. This time he has the rare opportunity to come back to visit relatives. I sent him over early in the morning, you have to take this opportunity to teach him well. This kid is a soldier who fights in war, and he has a good skill, so I feel relieved. " Li Yun smiled and said to the old man: "Please don''t worry, old man. I also have the same intention. Although this kid worships me as a teacher, he has never learned from me for a day. If he went outside to fight with others that day and was defeated by others, I There is no place to put the old face." (end of this chapter) Chapter 371: to promote Chapter 371 Promotion Fang Lang on the side was sweating profusely when he heard the words. Anyway, I am also a rear admiral now. If I need to do something myself, then my subordinates will be too useless. However, he certainly can''t say that he can''t use it now, so he can only nod quickly: "What the master said is that the last time I had a discussion with the master, I was greatly shocked. I am taking this opportunity to learn from the master! " The old man nodded in satisfaction when he heard the words, and said to Li Yunze: "Then I will leave it to Master Li." Li Yun nodded to the old man and said: "Don''t worry, old man, I will never hide anything." After both of them finished speaking, Li Xiangang on one side obviously remembered Fang Lang''s question just now, and walked quietly to his father and said: "Dad! Just now Junior Brother Fang asked me, when will the coaches you brought with you be able to officially enter the school as coaches. I dont know either, so I told my junior, its up to you to decide. " The master frowned when he heard the words, and asked Fang Lang: "Lang''er, what''s the matter? Is the coach urgent?" Seeing the master''s expression, Fang Lang smiled and said: "It''s not in a hurry. The main reason is that many schools for Chinese children have already started classes. I just want to ask when our martial arts classes can start at the earliest." Li Yun hesitated for a moment before slowly opening his mouth and saying: "People in the world say that Tai Chi doesn''t go out for ten years, and eight-level boxing kills people in two years. They think that eight-level boxing is a martial art that can be learned quickly, but it is wrong. If you really want to learn how to easily kill people, two years of study alone is not enough, you need to train your body and consciousness to a sufficient level. " Upon hearing this, Fang Lang was taken aback. What he wanted was not to train everyone to be a killer who killed people in two years, but to be able to have a certain skill and not be bullied casually. If everyone is really trained to be a killer who can kill people in two years, everyone should start to be afraid of the Chinese. Fang Lang coughed lightly and said: "Master, you wait. I think you misunderstood. We want to set up martial arts classes in schools, not to train every Chinese into a real martial arts master, but to let everyone have a certain ability to protect themselves when facing threats. So, you don''t need to train too deeply for these elementary school martial arts coaches. Just let everyone lay a good foundation for elementary school teenagers. In addition to martial arts classes, our students also need to take cultural classes, so the time for each martial arts class is not very long. But their total learning time must be more than two years. It is best for you to set a unified standard for these coaches. For example, primary school is six years. These teenagers who learn Bajiquan should learn what kind of content in each of these six years. When they graduate from primary school, they should To what extent. Junior high school is three years, and when they graduate from junior high school, teenagers who have studied Bajiquan for nine years must reach a level with sufficient self-defense capabilities. Because our primary education is only nine years. There may be many people who, after nine years of study, will enter social work and stop studying. And we must ensure that they have sufficient self-protection capabilities. Of course, with so many people learning Bajiquan, some of them will be able to persevere and stand out from it. For this part of the people, we can send them to your boxing gym for further study, know how to thoroughly master the profound meaning of Bajiquan, and become real Bajiquan masters. Finally, through continuous actual combat training from these masters, everyone can go a step further and become qualified to represent Bajiquan in competitions, and even go to other places to open new Bajiquan gyms. The seed for the development of Bajiquan Gym. Can you understand me when I say that? " Everyone in the room understood what Fang Lang meant, but Li Yun obviously didn''t expect that Fang Lang''s ambition would be so big, if it was according to what Fang Lang said. All the young Chinese in Brazil will become the inheritors of Bajiquan. According to this situation, even if there is one student with Bajiquan talent in every thousand people, their Bajiquan will really flourish. He will accomplish a feat that has never been done before. Thinking of this, Li Yun said excitedly: "I understand what you mean, you just divided Bajiquan into three levels: elementary, intermediate, and advanced. From elementary school to junior high school, master the elementary eight-level boxing and be able to protect yourself. After junior high school, through further study, master the intermediate Bajiquan and become an official Bajiquan successor. Then, these inheritors who have mastered the intermediate Bajiquan, after continuous confrontation training and competitions, finally become the real eighth-level masters who can represent Bajiquan in competitions or open gyms. " Fang Lang heard the words, smiled and said: "Yes, that''s what I meant roughly, but it doesn''t mean that there are only three levels. If we want everyone to have greater interest in learning, we can further subdivide the three levels, and divide each level into three sub-levels, In this way, it can be divided into nine levels. After each level of evaluation, everyone will be more eager to obtain the next level. When everyone compares with each other, they will be more eager to get a higher level of evaluation. In this way, everyone''s enthusiasm is higher. " At this time, Li Yun admired his new apprentice even more. He is not a pedantic person. Unlike many other martial artists, the traditional thinking is different. Although I am reluctant to pass on my Bajiquan to foreigners, I really have no psychological barriers to passing it on to the Chinese. So without hesitation: "No problem, we will do whatever you say. If you can really make my Bajiquan flourish, the patriarch will definitely be very grateful to you. " Turning to think of something, he said again: "However, if so many people learn Bajiquan, will some people learn it and then commit crimes? Wouldnt it ruin the reputation of our Bajiquan by then? " Fang Lang smiled and said: "The master is overthinking, there is no distinction between good and bad kung fu, only talents. We can''t guarantee that everyone who learns Bajiquan is a good person. But in the same way, we can''t give up eating because of choking, or give up developing Bajiquan because we are worried that someone will do evil. Of course, the masters worry is justified, but we can reduce the proportion of evil by promoting martial arts to all martial arts practitioners. " Actually, everyone knows that no one who has learned any martial art can guarantee not to do evil. As for, it is even more unlikely that the reputation of this martial art will be ruined because of which martial art is used for evil. So, Li Yunze''s worries are completely unnecessary. "That''s fine, there''s no problem here, master, you can handle things at this level yourself!" Fang Lang waved his hands quickly when he heard it: "Master, this is impossible, I haven''t really started learning Bajiquan yet, how can I directly set the rating! How many levels are specifically divided into Bajiquan, what level can be achieved, and how many levels can be leveled, all need to be decided by you, the master. Of course, we don''t just use names such as elementary, intermediate, and advanced. I heard that Xingyiquan in our national art is divided into three realms, Ming Jin, Dark Jin and Hua Jin. Can Bajiquan also learn from Xingyiquan, and even directly divide the levels into Mingjin 1st level and Mingjin 2nd level? " Li Yun didn''t expect Fang Lang to have such insight, and after hearing the words, he pondered for a while before saying: "What you said is very reasonable, I think this method is very good. I can ask the masters of other factions for advice, and we can discuss together to determine the level assessment of this national art, so that the national art can be passed on. " "Also, master, we not only need to assess a simple grade, but also carry out different marks for each different grade, and it is best to clearly distinguish it from the clothing. Every time a level is reached, he can be awarded different levels of logos, such as wearing belts of different colors around the waist, or armbands of different colors on the arms to indicate everyone''s identity, People of low rank must first salute each other when they see people of high rank to reflect the sense of honor of the high rank. " In fact, what Fang Lang said is very common in later generations, the classification of taekwondo and karate. Of course, Taekwondo did not appear at this time. It was not until 1955 that Choi Hong-hee of South Korea formally proposed the term Taekwondo. The history of karate is obviously earlier than that of taekwondo, and what is interesting is that both taekwondo and karate were called the same name "Tang Shou" at the very beginning. As for why it is called this name, the reason is well known. "Oh! I know what you''re talking about, isn''t it the little devil''s karate routine?" "Yes, that''s it. Although the Japanese race is not a thing, we can''t deny everything about them just because we hate this race. At least, they have come up with a lot of very good methods in spreading karate to the outside world, so can we learn from it? Of course, in addition to these, we can also establish files for each college and issue them official grade certificates. Advanced or above level certificates must go to our Bajiquan headquarters for assessment. Low-level certificates must also be managed by us. Of course, we can also authorize boxing gyms or coaches who have reached a certain level to be rated. But the grade cannot be determined by a single person. A rating committee must be formed locally. Only after everyone approves can the examiner be awarded the corresponding grade. In this way, it can be ensured as much as possible that the corresponding level is really awarded to those who have reached this level of strength. " Fang Lang is a person from later generations. Although he has never studied taekwondo or karate, he has more or less contact with it. These things have been verified by countless people in later generations, and they are indeed effective methods. Of course, it has to be borrowed directly. Li Yun glanced at Fang Lang hesitantly and said: "But, this is not a big investment, we don''t have such a big capital!" Hearing the words, Fang Lang was taken aback for a moment, this is true, just to maintain such a system requires a lot of full-time staff, The salary of these people is not a decimal. What''s more, in order to promote, it is necessary to publicize, organize competitions, and distribute bonuses. All of these really require capital, and it is definitely not enough to live on your own with the investment of Bajiquan Gym. But he quickly thought of a way. smiled and said: "Don''t worry, we can set up a Bajiquan Association, and all coaches and boxing gyms must go through the association seriously. To obtain these certifications, you must pay a certain amount of membership fees every year. At the same time, everyone can also charge a certain fee for their own grade improvement assessment. Of course, this fee does not need to be high, as long as it can cover the cost of our rating. In addition, every time you pass a level test, you need to replace a higher-level logo, and this logo can be certified after we agree to make it, and you have to pay for the replacement of this logo, which we can earn A certain amount of profit. Also, our Bajiquan special practice clothes and special practice equipment can be manufactured by us, and then sold to those who learn. Finally, we can organize professional competitions, and we can also charge a certain fee for all participating players or boxing gyms. These are the profits we can reap, enough to maintain the normal operation of the association. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 372: Meet Ji Wanchang Chapter 372 Meet Ji Wanchang Fang Lang really doesn''t know how taekwondo and karate make money and develop, but as a later generation, he can just say a few points casually, and he can also make the Bajiquan Association work first. As for whether there will be advertising revenue after the boxing match becomes more influential, it will be a matter of the future. After listening to Fang Lang''s words, Li Yun couldn''t react for a long time. As a traditional martial artist and Chinese medicine practitioner, his thinking was somewhat behind the times. But although he himself doesn''t understand some things, he has a son, and this son has gone to college. So, without hesitation, he turned his gaze to Li Xiangang and said: "do you understand?" Li Xiangang, who was lamenting Fang Lang''s active thinking, was taken aback for a moment, and nodded quickly: "Understood!" "Okay, I will leave this association to you. I will be responsible for completing the classification of Bajiquan. With these clear directions, the rest will be easy." Li Yun directly handed over the work that he didn''t understand to his son, and then turned to look at Fang Lang aside and said: Do you have any specific suggestions for clothing and logos? Glancing at the dazed Li Xiangang, Fang Lang smiled. Hearing what the master said, he quickly shook his head and said: "I''m just making a suggestion, the rest is up to you to decide." Hearing this, Li Yun nodded, then turned to the old man beside him and said: "Old man, sit down and drink some tea first, and I will take him to teach him the basics first. Otherwise, my master will be scolded, and I will be unqualified. " The old man laughed loudly when he heard the words: "Okay, then Master Li will work hard. Just teach him. If he dares not be serious, you can just deal with him directly. If he is disobedient, you tell me, and I will deal with him myself. " Fang Lang on the side could only smile helplessly, and said to Li Yun: "Master, I have been studying with you in the martial arts hall every morning these few days. I need to spare some time to deal with some official duties in the afternoon. Do you think it is okay?" Li Yun frowned, obviously dissatisfied. But he also knows Fang Lang''s identity, which determines that he can''t have as much time as others to concentrate on contacting martial arts. It must be very rare to be able to spend a whole morning at home during the holidays. So, I can only nod helplessly and say: "Okay then! This morning, I will first teach you several techniques of Bajiquan. After that, you have to stand on the pile for at least an hour every morning. In the next few days, I will give you the routines and exertion skills of Bajiquan little by little, and guide you to practice it a few times to see how much you can master. As for the fighting skills of Bajiquan, we will arrange it according to your learning progress later, its ok! " The master said so, of course Fang Lang nodded again and again. "Okay, I will listen to the master, and I will learn how you teach. Try to take advantage of this vacation to learn everything I can learn, and then I will go back and contact me slowly. " The two stood up and nodded to the people in the main room. Instead of walking far, they found a small open space in the middle of the patio in the backyard and started teaching. The old man sitting in the main room was drinking tea while watching Fang Lang study, and he didn''t forget to wave to everyone: "This kid, since he practiced kung fu when he was young, he likes to steal and play tricks. I have to watch him here. You all go to your own business and don''t worry about me." When the female relatives heard the words, they looked at each other, nodded and got up to leave. After sitting with the old man for a while, Li Xiangang also got up to leave, and went to the front yard to continue teaching the teenagers how to practice. Fang Lang''s physical fitness is really not covered. After practicing these skills, he didn''t feel tired at all, which surprised his master Li Yunze. In addition to being mature in psychology, I am also willing to learn real kung fu from the master seriously, so I study very seriously. There is no need for the old man to supervise at all, and he can actively complete the requirements of the master. What''s more important is that he has a flexible mind, a high level of comprehension, and he learns very quickly. Even Li Yunze had to sigh, this kid is a monster. While Fang Lang was learning Bajiquan, Mr. Situ, who had been waiting for news at the hotel, and Ji Wanchang from Yiyi Church in Penang also received a call from Fang Xinshui. Fang Xinshui didn''t say much to the other party on the phone, but just invited the other party to come to Hongyi Hall for a detailed discussion in the afternoon. This answer made both of them heave a sigh of relief. I have no intention of visiting Sao Paulo, and have been waiting at the hotel with peace of mind. After finally waiting until the afternoon, the two couldn''t wait to take the car to the entrance of Hong Yitang. Today''s Hongyitang is different from yesterday''s. There are not as many black-clothed men on both sides of the road as yesterday, but there are two very strong guards with guns standing at the gate of Hongyitang. It was the kind of brazen guard with a gun. The gun in his hand was not an ordinary small pistol, but a submachine gun. Seeing the arrival of the two, the guards checked the two of them, and after confirming that there was no problem, they called inside to inquire, and after confirming that they had an appointment, they were let in. Sitting in the car, Ji Wanchang glanced at Mr. Situ next to him and said: "Why do I have the feeling of entering a military important place!" Mr. Situ heard this, smiled and said: "Don''t be surprised, this may be a Brazilian characteristic. Hongyitang is different from our other halls in Hongmen. They are formal companies that wear the cloak of a formal company and carry out legal activities. So don''t look at their style through our old eyes. " The vehicle drove into the compound and parked in the parking space. After the two got out of the car, they saw a few guards with guns in the yard, patrolling around, looking heavily guarded. Those who dont know may really regard this place as some kind of military important place. "Is this because of the poor law and order in Brazil, or did Hong Yitang offend someone in Brazil! This battle looks a bit exaggerated! " Ji Wanchang muttered, obviously surprised by this situation. Mr. Situ couldn''t answer this kind of question, so he shook his head and said: "If you want to know, you can ask him directly later!" Fang Xinshui had already come out while the two were talking. Seeing the two standing in the yard, Fang Xinshui laughed all the way and stretched out his hand. "Master Situ, Hall Master Ji, welcome, welcome! Hurry up, inside please! " Mr. Situ and Ji Wanchang also hurriedly greeted Fang Xinshui with a smile. "Master Fang, excuse me!" Several people greeted each other a few words, and then entered the reception room of Hong Yitang together. After the two sat down, Fang Xinshui asked for three cups of tea before slowly opening his mouth and saying: "I have already talked to my nephew about the request you two made. It happened that my nephew was visiting relatives at home in the past two days, so my nephew will come over to chat with the two of you in person later. As for whether this business can be completed, it depends on whether the two can persuade my nephew. " Mr. Situ obviously knows who the nephew Fang Xinshui mentioned belongs to. Hearing this, his face was happy, and at the same time, his attitude was unconsciously solemn. While Ji Wanchang on the side obviously didn''t know much about the Fang family''s situation, so when Fang Xinshui mentioned his nephew, he still looked at a loss. I was still thinking, how old is your nephew? Is it inappropriate for you to ask your nephew to come forward for such a big matter? Unconsciously glanced at Mr. Situ next to him, and saw the other party solemnly said: "It is our honor to meet Mr. Fang." This puzzled Ji Wanchang, but he could only nod along with Mr. Situ. Fang Xinshui didn''t care too much about the attitudes of the two of them, he just smiled and said: "It''s still early, the two of you will drink tea with me here first, he should be here soon!" Of course what they were talking about was Fang Lang. Originally, Fang Lang planned to come over after lunch with the master, but Mr. Situ and Ji Wanchang were too impatient. arrived at Hongyitang not too early, but Fang Lang, who came on time, became late. Fortunately, the waiting time for the few people was not long. Just when Mr. Situ asked Fang Xinshui why their guards were all fully armed, the outside door opened. A convoy of five cars and two military trucks drove into the front yard of Hong Yitang. The guards in the courtyard all stood at attention and saluted. The soldiers of the fully armed guard company kept jumping out of the truck compartment, and these soldiers directly took over the security work of Hong Yitang without any politeness. After the soldiers confirmed that there was nothing abnormal, an officer walked to the car in the middle and opened the back door. Fang Lang, wearing a decent suit, slowly got out of the car. The three people who were drinking tea and chatting on the second floor knew that the person they were waiting for had arrived when they saw this posture. Mr. Situ is well-informed, and he is not surprised by this kind of ostentation. Ji Wanchang was visibly shocked, and looked at the two of them in surprise. Then Fang Xinshui asked: "Master Fang, is this your nephew you mentioned?" Fang Xinshui smiled and said: "Yes! My nephew Fang Lang." Mr. Situ also stood up and said: "Master Fang, let''s go down and meet him!" and his nephew, how can there be so much courtesy, Fang Xinshui, who was going to sit here and wait for Fang Lang to come up, had no choice but to get up after hearing this. "Okay! Let''s go down and get him!" Several people went downstairs talking and laughing, and when they reached the stairs, they saw Fang Lang who was walking slowly forward. Fang Xinshui went directly to introduce the two parties. Everyone shook hands downstairs and said hello, then went upstairs again and returned to the reception area on the second floor. "Mr. Ji, I heard my uncle told me yesterday that you want to purchase arms through our Fang family?" Since he had come here in person, Fang Lang didn''t need to beat around the bush, and asked straight to the point. Hearing this, Ji Wanchang glanced at Mr. Situ beside him. Seeing Situ nodding to himself, he didn''t intend to speak for himself. He could only cough twice, nodded and said: "Yes, Mr. Fang, I heard that the Fang family has a close relationship with the US military, so I want to purchase a batch of arms through your relationship." Fang Lang, who saw the actions of both of them, smiled, and said calmly: "Oh! Mr. Ji, as far as I know, it is not difficult to purchase arms outside now! Why do you still purchase through us? Could it be that Mr. Ji is planning to purchase some big guys like planes, tanks, and warships? " "That''s not true, we don''t have the strength to use these heavy equipment yet. All you need are ordinary firearms, some mortars, and small-caliber artillery. These arms are indeed easy to buy in some places, but our Penang is the territory of the British, and now the local Malaysians are fighting for independence, so the arms control is very strict. This time I had the opportunity to come to Brazil. I heard that the Fang family has a close relationship with the US military, so I wanted to see if I could purchase a batch of equipment through the Fang family. " After hesitating for a while, Ji Wanchang spoke slowly. (end of this chapter) ~: Ask for leave Ask for leave Dear readers, this new crown is too fierce. The otaku I create at home every day, basically dont even go out, and I dont know how it got infected. High fever of 39.4, my head felt like it was about to be crushed, and I was humming with pain all over my body. There is really no way to continue creating, so I can only ask everyone for a leave of absence. If tomorrow is better, I will continue to update. I hope everyone will take good protection and stay away from the new crown. (end of this chapter) Chapter 373: arms business Chapter 373 Arms business Hearing that the other party said that his Fang family had a close relationship with the US military, Fang Lang calmly glanced at Mr. Situ next to Ji Wanchang. After the other party finished speaking, Fang Lang took a sip of the tea on the table unhurriedly. Facing Ji Wanchang, he said: "You just said that Malaysians are fighting for independence, so, are you here this time to purchase arms for Malaysians?" "Ah! No, no, those Malaysians dare not directly go to war with the British. We bought it for our own use. " Seeing that Fang Lang thought he was with the Malaysians, Ji Wanchang waved his hands repeatedly. Staring at Ji Wanchang closely, Fang Lang wanted to see some of the other''s inner thoughts from his expression. The reason why Fang Lang made an appointment with the other party in the afternoon was because Fang Lang was waiting for the Intelligence Bureau to provide him with information on Malaya. On the way here, Fang Lang already had a certain understanding of the current situation in Malaya from the intelligence briefing provided by the Intelligence Bureau. It turned out that during the Japanese occupation period in Malaya, a rebel army had been active, and the strength of this rebel army was not bad. At its strongest, it had grown to eight brigades with more than 10,000 people. The predecessor of this army was the guerrilla backbone trained by the British 101 Special Training School. The reason why the British trained them was actually a helpless move. At that time, the Japanese had already landed in Malaya, and the British army was powerless to resist. Finally, when they knew that they were unable to continue to rule Malaysia, they released more than 200 members of the Malay Communist Party who had been imprisoned by them. And threw some old obsolete equipment to this team, let them make some trouble for the new ruler of Malaya, the Japanese. According to the information provided by the Intelligence Bureau, except for a very small number of Malays in this anti-Japanese force, most of them are Chinese. Of course, there is a reason for this. After all, the Japanese knew that during the war in their hometown, the Chinese in Southeast Asia supported the War of Resistance. So, after the Japanese landed in Malaya, they began to massacre Malaya Chinese. The Chinese were forced to flee from various prosperous towns to the jungle, and some of them naturally took the initiative to join the anti-Japanese team. Therefore, most of the members of this rebel army are Chinese, and it is a matter of course. The attitude of the Japanese towards the Malays is to support their independence, and in the name of helping them drive away the British colonists, they support the pro-Japanese Malay government. In the eyes of most Malays, the Japanese are actually liberators, so the Malays are actually standing with the Japanese. When the devils surrendered, the rebels took over many towns from the devils and gained some influence in Malaya. But what people didn''t expect was that Wright, the leader of this Communist Ma resistance army, turned out to be a British agent. When the British returned to Malaya, Wright ignored everyone''s opposition and forcibly ordered the rebel fighters under him to lay down their weapons and demobilize. Let this Malayan Chinese armed force be ruined directly inexplicably. Later, the British were even more malicious and vigorously promoted the contribution of the Chinese in the Southeast Asian battlefield. In contrast, there was massive oppression and exploitation of the local indigenous Malays. Through this method of killing people, the local ethnic conflicts were intensified, which led to the subsequent murder. So, after Fang Lang learned of this information, his first reaction was whether this Ji Wanchang had anything to do with this rebel army. After confirming that the other party was not purchasing arms for Malaysians, Fang Lang asked directly: "Then Hall Master Ji, can you explain to me, who are you representing to purchase? Or, explain why you want to purchase arms? " This question obviously caused Ji Wanchang to fall into deep thought, and he didn''t make a sound for a long time. Seeing this situation, Fang Lang didn''t urge him, but just took out a cigar and lit it for himself, and motioned to everyone, and began to wait quietly for the other party''s reply . After thinking for a while, Ji Wanchang slowly raised his head, glanced at everyone, and said as if he had made up his mind: "Mr. Fang, everyone is Chinese, so I won''t hide some things from you. This time, we Chinese in Penang want to build a force of our own, and build a homeland in Malaya that belongs to us. " As soon as these words came out, Fang Xinshui was the first to show surprise. He never thought that this unobtrusive owner of the Hongmen Yiyi Hall in Penang would have such courage. Mr. Situ on the side looked as if he had expected it, as if everything was as he expected. Fang Lang still looked calm and breezy, looked up and down carefully at Ji Wanchang who was opposite him, and said lightly: "Are you from the Communist Party of Malaysia?" Ji Wanchang was shocked when he heard this. He looked at Fang Lang in disbelief, and stammered: "Mr. Fang misunderstood, I...I am not." Hearing this, Fang Lang frowned, and said with some dissatisfaction: "Mr. Ji, I am a Chinese, I don''t care about your beliefs, and I don''t mind. You don''t have to hide it from me at all. I support your idea of ??arming the Chinese in Southeast Asia and building a Chinese country. However, if you want me to provide you with arms, at least we must trust each other. The basis of trust is that we need to understand each other. If you are not even willing to tell me your identity, where will our foundation of trust come from? " Situ Wenyan on the side also took a look at Ji Wanchang, and said slowly: "Wanchang, Mr. Fang is right, If you want to gain the trust of others, you really should be honest with people. The Communist Party of Malawi is not a scourge, so there is no need to cover up. I have met a lot of people in my hometown who have the same beliefs as you, and I think they are all honest men. Since we are for the common interests of Chinese compatriots, there is nothing we cannot say to others. " Fang Xinshui also looked at Ji Wanchang with dissatisfied eyes, as if you were an honest boy. At this time, Ji Wanchang made people look like he was about to cry, and waved his hands again and again: Everyone really misunderstood, I am really not the Communist Party of Malaysia. The reason why I am nervous is because the attitude of the Malayan government towards the Malayan Communist Party is not good. Although it is not to the extent of eliminating it, it still targets it everywhere. If I am considered a member of the Malay Communist Party, the development of our Yee Yee Church in Penang may be severely restricted. " Ji Wanchang was not wrong on this point. In fact, the British, who started as colonists in 1948, issued a special emergency regulation with the purpose of suppressing the former rebel members of the Republic of Malawi. The following year, the Communist Party of Malaysia began to embark on the road of armed resistance, although it failed in the end. But it must be said that without the armed resistance of the Communist Party of Malaysia, the British would never easily agree to the independence of Malaya. It is a pity that the Chinese-led Malay Communist Party did not succeed in the end. Instead, it made wedding dresses for Malays. Fang Lang felt a little strange seeing that Ji Wanchang didn''t seem to be lying. Could it be that this guy was the group who later established Singapore. These guys are a bunch of nationalistic people, and they don''t have any national plot at all. But it doesnt matter, no matter which faction it is, as long as he is a Chinese compatriot, when they need help, he will still help them if he can. Thinking of this, he said directly: "Oh! It doesn''t matter, yes or no is not important. As long as you are really Chinese armed, I can sell arms to you. " Ji Wanchang was overjoyed when he heard the words, and said excitedly: "Really? That would be really nice." But Fang Lang waved his hand, turned to Mr. Situ and said: "Mr. Situ, I have a question. I don''t know if I should talk about it or not?" Mr. Situ obviously didn''t think about why Fang Lang suddenly changed the topic to himself when the two were chatting well. Without thinking too much, he said directly: "It''s okay, if Mr. Fang has anything to say, just ask. I know everything and say everything. " Nodding, Fang Lang looked at Mr. Situ seriously and said: "I believe that with Mr. Situ''s energy, he can find a suitable arms channel for Mr. Ji in the United States. I dont know why Mr. Situ went far and wide to find our Fang family? " After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Mr. Situ immediately understood what Fang Lang meant. He was worried that there was some trap in it! Mr. Situ said without hesitation: "Mr. Fang is right, I was indeed able to purchase suitable arms from the United States for him. Actually, our Fang''s house in the morning was also a coincidence. Please rest assured, Mr. Fang, we have no malicious intentions. Hall Master Ji and I just met in Sao Paulo the day before yesterday. When Hall Master Ji asked me to buy arms, I immediately thought of going to the United States to help them purchase. However, yesterday we saw the influence of the Fang family in Sao Paulo, and thought of your identity and the influence of Universal Group in the United States. So, I temporarily proposed to tell Hall Master Ji that you can buy arms from the Fang family, so that you can avoid another trip to the United States. " Fang Lang obviously didn''t believe such a statement. After taking a serious look at the two of them, Fang Lang slowly said: "Malaya is the territory of the British, and my identity is not suitable for blatantly selling arms to the master Ji. In addition, we do not have weapons and equipment in stock in Brazil. If you want to buy American weapons, you still have to get them from the Americans in the end. If Mr. Situ is willing, I can give you a call. After arriving in the United States, you can call this person directly to purchase the equipment you need. Of course, this is just a pure business. In order to avoid unnecessary troubles, I think it is best for you to purchase from him in the name of the other party. Avoid causing unnecessary trouble! " Hearing that Ji Wanchang pondered for a while, he looked up at Fang Lang again and said: "I don''t know, Mr. Fang thinks it''s best to purchase in the name of whom." Fang Lang didn''t say much, and continued to say unhurriedly: "It depends on what you want, the person I introduced to you doesn''t care too much about your real identities. As long as you can give them an explanation and pay him real money, no matter what equipment you want, he will provide it to you. " Actually, the current U.S. government doesnt care too much about the whereabouts of weapons, because the equipment they support is everywhere in the world, and there are too many people using American equipment. It is basically impossible to trace the source. So, Fang Lang is going to introduce them directly to the business personnel of Shata Company. The reason for doing this was that Fang Lang felt that the two of them were not telling the truth and were hiding something from him. As for whether the other party is really hiding something, Fang Lang only needs to trade arms once, and Fang Lang can investigate clearly by tracking the transaction process and whereabouts of the arms. Ji Wanchang hesitated after hearing Fang Lang''s words. After hesitating for a while, he slowly said: "Mr. Fang, I wonder if you can tell us who the person you introduced is. Will it be?" Seeing the other party''s hesitant expression, Fang Lang understood that the other party was afraid that the news of the purchase of arms would be exposed. "That''s why I asked you to use someone else''s name to purchase! Whether you will be exposed depends on whether you are cautious enough. In addition, it also depends on the quantity of arms you purchase. If the quantity is too large, it will certainly attract the attention of others! " This is obviously different from Ji Wanchang''s original plan. Although Fang Lang is talking about supporting the Chinese independence movement, his actual actions are indeed obviously defensive. Even Ji Wanchang felt that the other party didn''t really want to help them at all, but simply regarded it as a business. Looking at Mr. Situ beside him, Ji Wanchang sighed in his heart, and said slowly: "alright, I got it." Mr. Situ on the side saw this, looked at Fang Lang, and then at Ji Wanchang before saying: "Wanchang, do you have something to hide from us? You want to buy arms, Mr. Fang has already introduced you to the right person, why do I feel that you are not satisfied. " When Ji Wanchang heard this, a trace of panic flashed across his master''s face, but he quickly covered it up. But Mr. Situ is also a person who is mature and mature, and he still captures the micro-expressions of just a moment. So, before Ji Wanchang could speak, Mr. Situ''s tone became severe and said: "Wanchang, I took the initiative to introduce the Fang family to buy arms for you because everyone belongs to the Hongmen. But it seems that what you want is not just arms, Now you''d better tell me honestly why you want to purchase arms and what are you hiding from us. " Fang Xinshui felt that this matter was not simple from the very beginning, so he sat on the sidelines like an outsider and observed the expressions of Mr. Situ and Ji Wanchang. Seeing Mr. Situ''s appearance now, he couldn''t help shaking his head helplessly. It seems that I must have misunderstood Mr. Situ. And Fang Lang''s attitude is also very calm, he will not make any decisions easily, and since the other party is unwilling to tell the truth, he will not force it. Now it is just introducing an arms channel for the other party, which has no effect on Fang Lang. As for whether the other party will use his name to contact the person he introduced to him, he believes that the other party should not be that stupid. When you don''t know the relationship between yourself and the other party, you spread some information that may cause you trouble, which is not what a wise person does. If the other party was originally Fang Lang''s own person, wouldn''t his behavior of pulling Fang Lang into the water soon reach Fang Lang''s ears? The attitudes of several people obviously put a lot of pressure on Ji Wanchang. For a while, he couldn''t lift his head up. After listening to Mr. Situ''s words, he bowed his head and remained silent for a long time. (end of this chapter) Chapter 374: give pointers Chapter 374 Guidance Looking at the other party with a funny look, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Actually, this is also very simple. Have you established your own political party now?" "not yet." Then set up your own political party, distinguish yourself from the MCP, and let the rebels who joined you quit the MCP and join your party. In this way, you can directly declare to the outside world that you are the armed forces of this political party, and you are different from the Communist Party of Malaysia. Even, you can show some opposition to the Communist Party of Malaysia, which will make you more pleasing in the eyes of Britain and the United States. Of course, what I want to tell you is that if you oppose the Communist Party of Malaysia, you must not be cruel to the Chinese brothers. You must understand that the Chinese are our foundation. If you want to establish an independent Chinese regime in Malaya, you must convince all the Chinese. Once you do something to the Chinese compatriots, you will lose your foundation. " Fang Lang was very worried that he accidentally supported an organization or country that had no ethnic concept at all. This is really a waste of your energy. Ji Wanchang also agreed with this very much, and nodded in approval quickly: "Don''t worry, Mr. Fang, I understand what you mean. If we want to truly establish a regime ruled by the Chinese, we must win the support of all Chinese. We will never attack our own compatriots. As for the issue of the political party, we will discuss it carefully after we go back, and we will definitely come up with a plan as soon as possible and officially announce our existence to the outside world. " Immediately afterwards, Ji Wanchang looked at Fang Lang sincerely, and asked for advice with a flattering expression: "I don''t know, what else can Mr. Fang teach me." Looking at the other party''s appearance, Fang Lang was a little worried, this guy couldn''t be a second devil! Didn''t you say you have to rely on your fists to speak? Why do you look a little groveling? Of course, Fang Lang thought about this in his heart, and he must be calm on the surface. Since the other party was humbly asking for advice, Fang Lang didn''t mind, so he taught the other party a little more, so he took a puff of smoke slowly and said: "Actually, if you want to let everyone know that you have the support of the Americans, you don''t have to wait until you become famous." Hearing this, Ji Wanchang''s expression was shocked, and his whole body became energetic. He looked at Fang Lang with burning eyes, with an expression of thirst for knowledge on his face, just like Liu Bei met Zhuge Liang. It''s like being shocked. "Please teach me, sir!" Fang Lang was somewhat uncomfortable with this kind of adoring gaze for a while, so he quietly twisted his **** and straightened his back. Turned his neck unconsciously, then coughed twice: "Ahem, the method is very simple, you can ask Mr. Situ to recruit some retired American soldiers for you in the United States. Bring them back to Malaya to train your team. Internally, you tell your people directly that this is the instructor group sent by the US government. As for whether you will pass through, it depends on whether you can subdue these American soldiers. If they are willing to cooperate with you in acting, everything will be fine. " After speaking, he gestured to him to count money. This method obviously refreshed Ji Wanchang''s three views. For a while, he looked at Fang Lang in disbelief. I just missed pointing to Fang Lang''s nose and asking, how can you be so shameless. Of course, although this method looks very dirty, it is not done by a gentleman. But when he thought about it for a while in his mind, he couldn''t help sighing "It smells so good!". The **** that I wanted to raise at Fang Lang was quickly changed to a thumb. "I understand what you mean! Even if I spend money, I will knock them out and make them believe that I am an instructor sent by the US government." Actually, it is not safe to use money to make American soldiers say that they are dispatched by the U.S. government. After all, if you can buy them with money, it means that others can also use money to buy them. As long as someone pays a higher price, these people may tell the truth. Fang Lang has several ways to convince these people that they were really recruited by the US government and sent to Malaya to train local Chinese armed forces. However, since Ji Wanchang himself has found the most suitable method from his gestures, he will not say anything more. "Okay! Now that you''ve figured out how to convince others, I believe that I will soon become a Chinese leader in Malaya. I am waiting for your good news in Brazil. " Unexpectedly, when Ji Wanchang heard that Fang Lang was about to end the conversation between the two, he waved his hands at Fang Lang repeatedly and said: "Don''t! Mr. Fang, you can''t just ignore me like this! Today I realized what a genius is, you must teach me more. Don''t worry, I will never let you help in vain. " Fang Lang frowned when he said this, what do you mean? Otherwise, I would help for nothing. I took the initiative to advise you for the sake of everyone being Chinese compatriots. What do you mean by telling me that I wont help you in vain? However, fortunately, Fang Lang is not a pedantic person. Now that the other party has expressed his gratitude to him, he is of course a little curious about how this guy is going to thank him. "Oh! I don''t know how to help." Ji Wanchang obviously didn''t notice Fang Lang''s frowning expression, and continued on his own: "Mr. Fang, you have solved my big problem. I can''t thank you enough. With your suggestion, we have to avoid many detours, and I can''t think of any good way to express my gratitude for a while. However, I brought a sum of money to purchase arms this time, and I want to hand over the money to you, You purchase the ammunition for us. Do not worry! This time it''s really just a simple purchase of arms, it doesn''t matter what kind of goods. " As soon as Fang Lang heard this, Fang Lang understood what the other party meant, which was to let himself make a difference from the middle. It seems that the Hongmen Yiyi Church in Penang has a strong financial strength! "Master Ji, you are welcome. We are all Chinese brothers. If you can create a new world for us Chinese in Southeast Asia, of course someone from our side will offer advice. Arms, you can go directly to the contact I provided to you to purchase. Without going through our hands. " It''s not that Fang Lang looks down on this small amount of money when he is rich. In fact, it is obviously impossible for the other party to send himself away if he wants to use this little money for arms profit. I am now advising the anti-government armed forces, and the risk is huge. Although everyone is a Chinese brother, the brothers have to settle accounts clearly! Now I may just give you some advice, but in the later stage you can really develop, maybe I will invest in you! Haven''t you ever paid me off? Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Ji Wanchang was obviously taken aback. He didn''t expect that he would give money to the other party clearly, but the other party refused. Although he is a bit silly, he is not really stupid. The other party gives me advice and suggestions. If I really dont express anything, I dont want to bother others in the future. Thinking about the funds he brought over this time, Ji Wanchang''s eyes moved slightly, he looked around, and said to Fang Lang in a low voice: "Mr. Fang, I brought a hundred kilograms of gold this time to purchase arms!" As he spoke, he winked at Fang Lang for a while. Hearing this, Fang Lang''s eyes lit up. The value of 100 kilograms of gold is not low, which made him have to seriously look at the lean middle-aged man in front of him again. A Hongmen hall in Penang was able to directly take out 100 kilograms of gold to buy arms. That means they must have more stock on hand. Otherwise, how could the other party have the confidence to take out a hundred kilograms of gold casually! There must not be so much money just relying on Hongmentang. In my mind, I couldn''t help but think that there were a group of anti-Japanese rebels in the opponent''s team. These people used to have a life-and-death confrontation with the Japanese in the old forest. Will you accidentally discover some treasure left by the Japanese? The more he thought about it, the brighter Fang Lang''s eyes became. Of course, he didn''t want to **** the other party''s gold. However, it is still very good to use these gold to increase the gold storage of your own bank! Thinking of this, Fang Lang rolled his eyes, smiled and said: "Mr. Ji, it is not convenient to use gold to purchase arms directly in the United States. More importantly, it is very dangerous for you to bring so many precious metals to the United States. If one is not careful, it may be robbed directly. Then there is no place to cry. How about this! Wait a minute, I will ask my uncle to arrange someone to take you to deposit the gold in the bank, Let the bank directly convert it into US dollars for you and deposit it into your account. When you go to the United States to purchase arms, you dont need to pay in cash, and the bank will directly transfer it to the other partys account for you. This is both safe and convenient. " Ji Wanchang, who had seen Fang Lang''s bright eyes, thought Fang Lang was tempted. As a result, the other party suggested that he deposit gold in the bank to ensure safety. For a moment, he was so moved that he wanted to cry. Isn''t this a proper living Bodhisattva? Of course, if he knew that the bank was actually owned by the Fang family, it is unknown whether he would be so moved! "Mr. Fang, I don''t even know what to say, thank you so much!" As soon as Fang Lang saw the other party''s appearance of being moved to tears, Fang Lang knew, no, he had to accept it. Otherwise, it will be troublesome if the other party really thinks that they are selfless and obliged to help. So, he stopped hiding and continued to speak: "Hehe. We are compatriots, and this is what we should do. Besides, the bank is our Fang familys property, so you can exchange gold into US dollars in our bank to increase our banks gold reserves. I thank you before it''s too late! " When Ji Wanchang heard this, his heart obviously moved, and his eyeballs twitched in their sockets. Although he didn''t say anything, he already remembered this in his heart. "Hi! The gold we carry can be exchanged anywhere. Since this is your bank, we will come to you if we need it in the future! " Fang Lang saw the other party''s expression in his eyes, and became more certain of his guess in his heart. It seems that Ji Wanchang has a lot of gold on hand! Maybe they really found the Japanese treasure. But now he will not covet the little gold in the other party''s hands. As long as the other party can keep in touch with him frequently, after a few more transactions, this batch of gold will definitely be exchanged for more convenient US dollars in their bank one after another. Seeing that the other party was obviously relaxed, Fang Lang continued to ask: "I don''t know what equipment Hall Master Ji plans to purchase! You have a lot of jungles over there. If you want your equipment to play its biggest role in the jungle, you must purchase some equipment that is suitable for you! " Ji Wanchang was taken aback when he heard the words, didnt he tell me to find someone else to purchase arms? Why are you asking me what equipment I want to purchase now? But hearing the other party say that they want to purchase equipment suitable for jungle warfare, this point really moved Ji Wanchang''s heart. Originally, I was the only one who was infected, but now the whole family is infected, especially the children who have a high fever and have to take care of the children. If the update is not timely, please forgive me! (end of this chapter) Chapter 375: Chapter 375 As the head of the Hongmen, it is definitely no problem to play with guns, but what kind of gun to use, obviously touched his blind spot of knowledge. "Oh! I don''t know what Mr. Fang can teach me?" Fang Lang waved his hand and said with a smile: "What is there to teach or not? We just discuss with each other. After all, we in Brazil, like you in Southeast Asia, have dense jungles. If you want to purchase arms to fight in the jungle, I suggest that you purchase firearms that should not be too long, otherwise it will be inconvenient to turn around in the jungle. In addition, it is recommended that you purchase more submachine guns. After all, if you encounter the enemy in the jungle, The distance to the enemy is often already very close. The submachine gun is short and has a fast rate of fire, which can pour bullets out in the shortest time. " When Ji Wanchang heard it, it really made sense, he laughed and said: "Haha. That''s right, we usually use a lot of submachine guns, but we mainly watch them and hide them. Now that you say it like this, I do think that submachine guns are very suitable for us. " "In addition, you can purchase more mines or grenades in the jungle to set up traps. As long as the enemy dares to chase you, just using landmines or booby traps laid by grenades is enough for them to drink a pot. " Hearing Fang Lang''s analysis and selection of these weapons, Ji Wanchang became a little strange. He looked at the soldiers in charge of protecting Fang Lang outside, and suddenly realized: "Mr. Fang, he leads troops to fight! No wonder he is so familiar with equipment. Since this is the case, I wonder if I can trouble Mr. Fang to provide us with a list of equipment, and I will directly purchase according to your list when the time comes. However, can we add some grenades like the little devil? When I came out, several rebel veterans in the team said that this thing works. " Fang Lang was taken aback when he heard the words, this stumped him, there is no such guy in American equipment! Almost like a mortar. But the power of the mortar is obviously greater than that of the grenade. Of course, the corresponding weight will increase and the moving speed will also slow down. What puzzled him even more was that in the jungle, could this thing be useful? The dense jungle wants to shoot, not directly to the top of his head? If you don''t make it right, you will blow yourself up. But since the other party made a request, Fang Lang certainly couldn''t refuse. I can only tell the truth: "The grenades you mentioned are special equipment for little devils. They are the only equipment in the world, but if you want projectile weapons, you can purchase a batch of M2 60mm mortars from the US military! I don''t know how many people''s equipment you need in total. " Ji Wanchang didn''t think too much about Fang Lang''s question, and answered directly: "No problem, you are a professional and I trust you. Our team has about 2,200 people, and they are all men who can directly take a gun to the battlefield. " Originally, Fang Lang was worried that if he asked the exact number of them, the other party would hesitate a bit, unlike himself, an outsider who revealed. Unexpectedly, the other party simply told Fang Lang their number without any concealment. This kind of personality made Fang Lang a little worried, and he had no sense of confidentiality at all. How could the rebels last? If you dont do it well, you will be sold. After thinking about it, I still remind you: "Mr. Ji, thank you for your trust and let me know the number of your team. But there is a sentence that is simple and profound, I want to remind you! If you take the road of armed resistance, you will face life and death at any time. You still have to keep a lot of information secret, otherwise it will be easy for the enemy to catch you and make a fuss about it. The weapons and equipment this time can be purchased on a scale of 3,000 people, which can be regarded as keeping some inventory. In addition, it can confuse your enemies. " Ji Wanchang heard the words, took a deep look at Fang Lang, nodded at him and said: "Thanks for the reminder, Mr. Fang, I will definitely pay attention in the future." At this moment, Ji Wanchang felt that if the guy in front of him could go back to lead his rebel army, it would be a great achievement. But he understood that the other party has such a large industry in Brazil, it is impossible to follow him to Malaya, so he quickly continued: "I don''t know what else sir can teach me." Seeing the other party''s face of eagerness for talent and his attitude of being straightforward and unconcealed, Fang Lang was still a little moved, so he didn''t hide it, and said with a smile: "I don''t know who suggested that you find Americans as backers, but I have to say that this is a brilliant move. If you just resist armedly and have a background of the Communist Party of Malaysia, you might be surrounded and suppressed by the British as a typical example. However, if you are not an armed force of the Communist Party of Malaysia, and only carry out armed struggle with restraint, I think you have a good chance of success. " Ji Wanchang immediately smiled when he heard Fang Lang''s words, but he was taken aback for a while, and asked a little puzzled: "Armed struggle with restraint? What does that mean?" Fang Lang smiled and said: "It means that both struggle and restraint are necessary, and the war cannot be expanded. You have to understand, and let the British understand that your purpose is only to establish a Chinese country in Malaya. It is not against the British, and you dont need to deliberately target the British. It is best to be able to show your own banner in a rural area where the British power is relatively weak, and then show your position to the British. Slowly infiltrate around, and you can even pay taxes to the British normally in the early stage, so that the British can see your position. " Unexpectedly, after listening to Fang Lang''s words, Ji Wanchang said in disbelief: "How can we continue to pay taxes to the British since we are fighting armed and fighting for independence? Isnt this the same as before? " Hearing the words, Fang Lang was not in a hurry, and continued to smile and said: "That''s why it''s called an armed struggle with restraint. You have to let the British understand that you don''t want to go to war with the British. It''s just that you have to choose an armed struggle in order to build an independent Chinese country." "But didn''t you say that if you want to have enough influence, you must defeat the British once? Then we can''t go to war with the British? " "Who said that there will be no war with the British, do you think the British will watch you occupy the territory casually? It is impossible for the British to acquiesce in your existence without bloodshed. So, there will definitely be a battle between you and the British, but in this battle, you must show your strength and determination, and let the British see your sincerity, understand? " Now Ji Wanchang was completely confused by Fang Lang, looked at him with a puzzled expression and said: "How to show our strength and determination, and let the British see our sincerity! Isn''t this a contradiction? " Hearing that Fang Lang covered his face with one hand, he said helplessly: If you want to show strength and determination, you must fight fiercely and ruthlessly. Let the enemy know how strong you are. It is also very simple for the British to see your sincerity. There will definitely be prisoners and wounded in war. You can treat the wounded for the British, and after the war is over, take the initiative to return the prisoners of the British army to the British. However, you must also make it clear to these captives and the British that you have no intention of going to war with the British, you just hope to have a piece of Chinese territory. In this way, the British will start to weigh the pros and cons, whether it is worthwhile to fall into endless battles with a powerful force. When you promise to obey their leadership, they will definitely choose to turn a blind eye or close one eye? " Ji Wanchang said in disbelief: "How is this possible, that is the mighty British Empire, the empire on which the sun never sets!" It seems that the strength of the British Empire is indeed engraved in the minds of many people! However, for Fang Lang, who came from later generations, he knew very well that the British Empire, which had gone through two world wars, had already faded away, and its scenery was no longer there. Of course, these words cannot be said to the other party. Fang Lang smiled and said: "Compared to your small actions in Southeast Asia, the British have more headaches that need to be solved." Looking at the other party''s questioning face, Fang Lang could only sigh, and continued: "Do you think you are the only ones in Malaya who are arguing for independence? The jewel in the crown of the British, the largest colony, India is the real headache for the British. " Ji Wanchang cannot be blamed for this. After all, information transmission in this era is far less developed than later generations. It is understandable that Ji Wanchang, who has been hiding in Southeast Asia, does not know what happened in other places. Hearing this, Ji Wanchang fell into deep thought, and after a long while, he spoke excitedly: "You mean that the British have been involved in India''s experience, and they don''t have the energy to care about our little power?" "That''s right, as long as you show obedience to each other''s leadership and don''t occupy their cities. With sufficient strength, the opponent will definitely not concentrate on fighting you. " Fang Lang analyzed to Ji Wanchang confidently. Although Ji Wanchang''s brain is not flexible enough, it does not mean that he can''t use his brain. After hearing Fang Lang''s words, he continued to be puzzled and said: "However, if we don''t occupy the city, we can''t make it bigger at all! There is no way to achieve our desire for independence! " Although Fang Lang didn''t know when Malaya became independent later, he knew very well that Malaya finally gained independence, and the British also supported the establishment of a regime, that is, Singapore. So, Fang Lang knew very well that as long as Ji Wanchang could endure his loneliness, he would work silently in the countryside for about twenty years. After getting the support of the Americans, they will definitely be able to get the status they want. But Ji Wanchang obviously couldn''t understand where Fang Lang''s self-confidence came from. After all, the tactic of encircling the city from the countryside at this time has not yet spread. Few people can understand the essence of it, so Fang Lang had to teach by hand: "Let me ask you, does Southeast Asia have a larger urban area or a larger rural area! Is there a large urban population or a large rural population. " "Of course, it''s the countryside." "Since there are many rural areas, does that mean that if you control the rural areas, you will control most of Malaya." "This seems to be true, but the economic conditions in the countryside are not good!" After hearing what the other party said, Fang Lang sighed helplessly before saying: "Who are the rich in Malaya." "Foreigners and Chinese." "Then since the countryside is now your Chinese territory, can you prevent wealthy Chinese businessmen from shifting their focus of investment to your territory?" "This is not impossible!" "Then if a large number of wealthy Chinese businessmen move to the countryside, will the countryside develop slowly?" "Should be!" Hearing the other party''s extremely unconfident answer, Fang Lang wished to hit the other party''s head with a chestnut, and shook his head helplessly and said: "As long as you manage well in the countryside and the economic policies given are loose enough, I can tell you with certainty that there is no problem in rebuilding a new city." (end of this chapter) Chapter 376: Ji Wanchangs heartbeat Chapter 376 Ji Wanchang''s Heartbeat Ji Wanchang was stunned for a while after hearing Fang Lang''s words. After a good while, he asked weakly: "However, we still have no way to occupy the cities of Malaya and complete the real independence of the country!" Fang Lang didn''t know how to answer this question for a while. After all, he couldn''t directly tell the other party how long to wait like a prophet, and the British would naturally give the Malaya region freedom. Even if the British don''t respect their demands by then, they already have enough power, and they can naturally do it themselves and get everything they want. Even if the British do not support it, they can get support from the Americans. Besides, the world was severely polarized at that time, and neither the United Kingdom nor the United States would want to see it. If they fell to the Soviet Communist Party, the most likely thing would be to hold their noses and agree with their status. "Some things are being told to you right now, and you probably won''t believe them either. But what I''m going to tell you is that there must be a reason for me to let you develop this way. As long as you follow the direction I gave and work silently in the rural areas of Malaya, you will surely be able to achieve what you want to achieve in the future. " But Ji Wanchang obviously had doubts about Fang Lang''s ambiguous, magic stick-like answer. After looking at Fang Lang with a tangled face for a while, he slowly opened his mouth and said: "Mr. Fang, it''s not that I don''t trust you, it''s that this matter is too involved. Our organization is not my own. After going back, I must have a suitable reason to convince other people in our organization to support our implementation of this policy. So, can you reveal a little inside information so that I can convince others when I go back. " Looking at the embarrassed Ji Wanchang, Fang Lang understood that the other party was telling the truth. After all, the other party had only met him for the first time, and he didn''t know him at all. It was impossible for the other party to completely believe in him. After thinking in his heart for a while, Fang Lang slowly said: "Where should I start? In fact, this involves the issue of world hegemony change. It turns out that the largest hegemon in the world, the British Empire, has gradually declined. The emerging capitalist hegemony, the United States, is rising rapidly. Old capitalist powers like Britain and France have a large number of colonies in the world. These colonies are the private plots of the British and French powers, cheap raw material warehouses, and commodity dumping places. For the United States, it does not have such a colony, and it certainly will not want other countries to have it. After the World War II, the major colonies in the world hope to obtain an independent status. The Americans are definitely happy to see the success, and will even contribute to the flames. That''s why I said that your proposal to find Americans as a backer is a wonderful move. Because the independence of the colonies is in the interests of the United States. But the Americans'' promotion of colonial independence is equivalent to cutting flesh from Britain and France. On the surface, everyone is still an ally, so it is impossible for the Americans to make big moves, they can only advance slowly, step by step. And this requires you a long process. That''s why I tell you to take your time. You can take advantage of this long time to nibble away at the countryside little by little and expand your control area in Malaya. When the time is right, you can directly occupy the city, and finally complete the complete occupation of the entire control area. " Although Ji Wanchang didn''t understand what Fang Lang said, the game between countries at the strategic level, but he had a feeling of ignorance. Believe in the bottom of your heart that what the other party says is the truth. Therefore, he nodded without hesitation: "Okay, I believe in you, and I will persuade everyone to carry out work according to your guiding ideology when I go back. However, is there anything Mr. Fang can teach me about how to hook up with Americans? " Fang Lang glanced at the other party helplessly, thinking that this guy is really rude, and he is still working according to my guiding ideology. Why are you treating me like a guiding light! I will teach you everything, and I will not send troops to help you fight the war! I''m just a Brazilian, not an American, and I don''t dare to have a head-on confrontation with the British. But the other party obviously believed in him, so he regarded his words as a canon, and Fang Lang could not refuse to discourage the other party''s enthusiasm. After coughing twice, he pretended to take a deep puff of his cigar before slowly opening his mouth and saying: "Actually, if you want to connect with Americans, you don''t need to come to the United States at all." After finishing speaking, he purposely put it off. Seeing Ji Wanchang''s anxious look, he picked up the cigar again and took a puff. Ji Wanchang is obviously an impatient person, and he couldn''t wait to ask: "Mr. Fang, you should speak quickly! If we dont come to the United States, where can we catch up with the Americans! " Seeing the other party looking anxious and angry, Fang Lang shook his head helplessly. I am deliberately giving you time to think! Exercise your thinking ability! You don''t want to use your brain at all, you just want to eat what''s ready-made. Can you really accomplish something like this? At this moment, Fang Lang felt that he was becoming less and less optimistic about the other party. He could only sigh, and said helplessly: "Where is the closest American force to your Malaya!" "Philippines! You mean let''s hook up with the Americans in the Philippines." It seems that the other party is not particularly stupid. Fang Lang stopped talking, took a puff of his cigar, and looked at Ji Wanchang who was in deep thought unhurriedly. At this time, Ji Wanchang sat on the table and fell into deep thought as if he had been enlightened. Obviously, Fang Lang''s suggestion was listened to in his heart. Seeing this situation, Fang Lang didn''t say much anymore, he got up and left the reception room, and when he came outside, he saw Fang Xinshui drinking tea with Mr. Situ in another tea room outside. nodded to the two, smiled and said: "Uncle, later you take Hall Master Ji to our bank, exchange the gold into US dollars, and then deposit it into his account, let him go directly to the United States to purchase arms!" Seeing Fang Lang coming out, the two people got up together. After hearing Fang Lang''s words, Fang Xinshui nodded and said: "no problem!" He was not interested in knowing what Fang Lang and Ji Wanchang talked about in it, so he didn''t ask. Mr. Situ on the side also nodded to Fang Lang with a smile on his face. Fang Lang also nodded with a smile, and said to Mr. Situ: "Mr. Situ, I still have things to do. It is inconvenient to stay for a long time, so I will go back first! The reception is not good, please forgive me! " Actually, Fang Lang still admires Mr. Situ very much! But I don''t have any friendship with him, and I dare not talk about any common topics. After all, it will touch the 404 river crab master. So, after a polite greeting, he hurriedly left Hong Yitang. After Fang Lang left, Fang Xinshui and Mr. Situ did not enter the reception room. They knew very well that nothing would happen to Ji Wanchang here, and since he hasn''t come out yet, something must have happened, so the two simply continued to wait outside. After touching for about half an hour, Ji Wanchang came out of the reception room with an excited face, and saw Fang Xinshui and Mr. Situ drinking tea and chatting outside, and hurried forward to ask: "You two, where is Mr. Fang?" Mr. Situ saw the expression on Ji Wanchang''s face, and knew that this guy had gained a lot this time. smiled and said: "Come and sit and have a sip of tea! What''s the matter? Look at your appearance, what a good thing! " Ji Wanchang couldn''t hide his smile when he heard the words, he laughed loudly and said: "Chairman, thanks to your blessing this time, I really came to the right place. With the guidance of Mr. Fang, I believe our business will be smooth sailing. " "Haha. That''s good, I hope you can really create a new world for us Chinese in Southeast Asia. It is not in vain to take you this trip today. " "Mr. Situ, please rest assured. With Mr. Fang''s guidance, we are like lost lambs and have found the way forward. Just follow the route Mr. Fang planned for us and keep going. We will be able to successfully achieve our goals! By the way, where is Mr. Fang? I still have a lot of questions I want to ask him! " Mr. Situ didn''t know what Fang Lang and Ji Wanchang talked about. How could it be that in a short period of time, he became refreshed and confident like a different person. But there are some things that I am obviously not suitable for asking. Seeing the other party repeatedly asking about Fang Lang''s whereabouts, he could only turn his attention to Fang Xinshui. Fang Xinshui was not surprised by Ji Wanchang''s performance. Thinking about their Fang family, in just a few years, they have achieved what they are today, and this is all thanks to their nephew. Therefore, he never had any doubts about his nephew''s ability. Ji Wanchang in front of him looked like he would bow down whenever he wanted, and he was already used to it. Hearing that the kid said that he still has a lot of questions to ask, he rolled his eyes unconsciously in his heart, but said with a smile on his face: "His work is very busy, so he went back early to deal with other things. If you have anything else, I can help you convey it! " Ji Wanchang heard the words, sighed, and said with disappointment: "Is that so? It''s such a pity. I dont know if you can tell me the identity of Mr. Fang, next time I hope to thank you in person! " There is actually nothing to hide about this. After all, Fang Lang''s identity is known to too many people in Brazil. After knowing the Fang family, it is really easy for him to inquire about people of this age and those protected by soldiers. So, Fang Xinshui didn''t hide anything, and said directly: "He is the spokesperson of our Brazilian family, the Brazilian rear admiral, and the official wave of the commander of the Rio de Janeiro aircraft carrier battle group. If you have anything to do, you can contact me directly. It is not easy to find him. " Ji Wanchang obviously did not expect that the young man just now would have such an identity. Although I don''t know how valuable this rear admiral is, the commander of an aircraft carrier battle group can understand what kind of military power this is. No wonder it is so familiar to analyze the strategic layout of countries in the world. At this moment, he was more sure of the problem in his heart, and he wanted to ask Fang Lang for advice immediately. Fang Xinshui noticed the way Ji Wanchang''s eyes were shining, and realized that it was inappropriate for him to easily reveal Fang Lang''s identity. So he quickly remedied: "You can just know his identity in your heart. I hope you don''t spread anything he said to you. Otherwise, you will not be able to bear any consequences. Do you understand?" Ji Wanchang was taken aback by this blatant threat, and he was a little confused. This is obviously a good opportunity to expand Mr. Fang''s influence in the Chinese community, so why should he conceal it? (end of this chapter) Chapter 377: artillery factory Chapter 377 Artillery Factory Actually, this has something to do with everyone''s perspective. In Ji Wanchang''s eyes, Fang Lang''s advice to him is to help the Malaya Chinese community, and everyone should remember his contribution. It is best to vigorously promote and establish Fang Lang''s image. In the future, Fang Lang will help them make more suggestions. In the eyes of Fang Lang, Fang Xinshui and others, everyone is Chinese. If you want to fight for an independent new country for the Chinese in Malaya, we will do it with all hands. It is only natural to make suggestions for you. But now your enemy is the British. Although the opponent has fallen, but the influence is still there. If you let the opponent know that your Brazilian general is helping the anti-British forces to make suggestions, you may put pressure on the Brazilian government. Let Fang Lang''s position in Brazil be affected. So, neither Fang Lang nor Fang Xinshui wanted the British to discover their existence. Although Ji Wanchang didn''t understand why Fang Xinshui didn''t want people to know Mr. Fang''s existence, but now that he had something to ask for, he could only pinch his nose and let the other party threaten him. "Hall Master Fang, please rest assured! Since you think we should keep Mr. Fang''s existence a secret, I will strictly enforce it. However, our business still needs the guidance of Mr. Fang. If we encounter problems that cannot be solved, I hope you can help me contact Mr. Fang and answer them for us. Ji Mou will definitely have a good report when the time comes. " Naturally, Xinshui would not refuse this party, and without thinking too much, he nodded and agreed to the other party''s request. At the same time, Fang Lang had already returned to the Overseas Chinese Village. He went out to practice martial arts early this morning, and went to Hongyitang to talk about things in the afternoon. Fang Lang didn''t have time to accompany his girlfriend. So, after talking about the business, I hurried back to the village to accompany my girlfriend. "My God! My dear, is our hospital this big?" Before dark, Fang Lang took Lilith and Vivian to the construction site of the hospital to see the construction of the hospital. After seeing the plan of the hospital, Lilith couldn''t believe her eyes. She thought that what Fang Lang wanted to build was just a small hospital. But who knows, Fang Lang basically referred to those famous large-scale third-level hospitals in later generations for construction. Therefore, both the construction area and the scale of the hospital were far beyond Lilith''s expectations. Hearing Lilith''s exclamation, Fang Lang smiled and said: "Haha, my dear, what is the point of this, what I want to build is not an ordinary small hospital, but a large research-oriented general hospital. Seeing a doctor is only his basic function. I hope to make him a medical institution integrating teaching and research. In the future, many medical laboratories will be set up here for doctors, experts and professors from all over the world to conduct medical experiments. And these will be handed over to you to manage. " When Lilith heard this, she felt tremendous pressure, and stammered: "Ah! Keke, I''m still just a student! I''m still learning even the most basic medical knowledge!" Fang Lang heard the words, smiled and said: "Don''t worry! You are not told to start managing now, aren''t you learning? Besides, managing a hospital does not require you to have a high medical level. In addition to studying, you can ask Olivia Berg for some management knowledge. He is a top student who graduated from a related major. We must learn to fully extract his surplus value. " Lilith heard the words, gave Fang Lang an angry look and said: "What are you talking about!" Vivian on the side heard the words even more, and smiled as if I had caught her: "Yeah! Honey! I''m going to tell Olivia that you want to **** her up." Hearing these words in Fang Lang''s ears, it felt as if something was wrong. For a while, he didn''t know how to answer the conversation. Lilith slapped her sister directly, signaling her not to talk nonsense. Turned his head to Fang Lang and said: "Honey, do you think Olivia will be bored in Rio de Janeiro alone, should we arrange someone to pick her up!" Fang Lang glanced at Lilith helplessly, thinking that his father was already very dissatisfied with bringing two girlfriends home this time. If Olivia Berg is taken over again, if the family asks, no one will believe that he said that he is an assistant of Universal Company. Maybe he thought it was his third girlfriend. Although he didn''t dislike making Olivia the third child, now Olivia''s uncle is the vice president of his media company. Would it be bad if he found out, so he said indifferently: "She came to see his uncle, how could she be bored?" Lilith glanced at Fang Lang with a half-smile and said: "Do you think she really came to see his uncle?" Fang Lang heard the words, looked at Lilith suspiciously and asked: "if not?" The girl Vivienne was already at the side, and said without any scruples: "Honey, you are really hypocritical, I don''t believe you have no idea about Sister Olivia! Otherwise, you will let such a beautiful sister be your personal secretary. snort! hypocritical! " Fang Lang''s face was full of embarrassment when he said this, and Lilith on the side also looked at Fang Lang with a smile on his face this time, wanting to see how he was going to answer. Fang Lang just looked at Lilith for help, when he saw Lilith''s expression of looking forward to the show. can only shrug helplessly and say: "Okay! I admit that Olivia is beautiful, but I promise I only love you guys! Besides, does this have anything to do with whether she came to see her uncle? " Vivian hugged Fang Lang''s right arm indifferently, and said jokingly: "Honey, the elders say that a man''s mouth is full of roses, but it''s not credible at all! You say you love us, but I believe it! But you said that you only love us, I don''t believe it so much! hey-hey" Lilith also said aside: "Okay! My dear, you are really not honest at all. Regardless of whether Olivia came to see her uncle or not, since you are in Brazil, do you want to do your best as a landlord?" Hearing this, Fang Lang thought about it seriously for a while, and then said to Lilith with a serious face: "Hmm! What Lilith said makes sense. Hospitality is our Chinese tradition. A friend traveled thousands of miles to my hometown, and it is really necessary for me to entertain her warmly. Then I will ask someone to buy him a plane ticket to Sao Paulo tomorrow morning. " Lilith rolled her eyes at Fang Lang angrily, and Vivian, who was holding Fang Lang''s arm, pinched Fang Lang''s arm with her hand, and said angrily: "Hmph! What a hypocritical man!" Fang Lang looked ahead as if he didn''t realize it, and continued to discuss with Lilith about the hospital''s future construction plan and development blueprint. Vivian and Lilith did not continue to entangle, but looked at their own man who was berating Fang Qiu with admiration. This time Fang Lang is on vacation, it is naturally impossible to really take a complete vacation. Fang Lang, who rarely had time to return to St. Paul, arrived at the artillery factory accompanied by Qi Qingshan and other guards early the next morning. The location of the factory is very remote, nearly three hours'' drive from the city. By the time Fang Lang and others arrived at the factory, the chief engineer of the artillery factory, Girard Bull, had already been waiting at the gate of the artillery factory early. The first time they saw Fang Lang coming, they greeted him without hesitation. The two complained while shaking hands: "Boss, you finally came to see us. I thought my work made you very dissatisfied! So you don''t want to see our artillery factory! " Fang Lang heard the words, while shaking hands with the other party, he patted the other party''s arm with his left hand and said: "How is it possible, although I don''t have time to visit you in the factory, but I have heard a lot about you. No, I just heard that your 155mm howitzer has been finalized, so I took advantage of my vacation to come over to have a look. I heard that our model is nearly 100 kg lighter than his prototype, the US-made M1A1 model? " Speaking of his own products, Girard Bourna said proudly: "Yes, boss! We have replaced some parts of the artillery that do not require the use of steel materials, and have chosen lighter aluminum alloys. Although the weight of the artillery has been reduced, the performance has not been affected in any way. The military representatives stationed at the site are very satisfied with the artillery produced by us, and have submitted a report to the Ministry of National Defense. Just wait until the acceptance by the Ministry of National Defense is completed, and then you can start to slowly supply the military. " Fang Lang nodded when he heard the words, and the two walked into the artillery production workshop accompanied by a large group of people. Giral Bull walked in front and kept introducing to Fang Lang, the production process of the artillery, and the processing equipment. Although some equipment looks second-hand, it is clear that it has no effect on using it. Among them, there are also many brand new processing equipment. Fang Lang in his previous life had only heard of electroslag remelting, but this time he saw the real thing in the factory. According to Girard Bull, this is the most advanced processing equipment he obtained from the United States by using his own relationship. After visiting the entire manufacturing process of the factory, Fang Lang finally understood why the artillery produced by the artillery factory can reach the performance level of the original version. It turns out that in addition to the equipment Fang Lang shipped from Japan, the factory purchased a lot of more advanced equipment from the United States. Most of the workers in the factory are American workers. No wonder the products can reach the current level of performance, which is no different from production in the United States! This is not what Fang Lang wants, so, after visiting the shooting limit experiment of the artillery. Backing to Girard Bull''s office, Fang Lang said directly: "Girard, I am very satisfied with the fact that you were able to make the artillery factory have real artillery production capacity so quickly, and made improvements and innovations. But I noticed that many positions in the factory are filled with skilled workers hired from the United States, which will greatly increase our management costs. I believe that the cost of the artillery we produce now must be more than that produced in the United States, right? " Giral Bull, who thought he would continue to be praised, did not expect that the first question the boss asked in the office was the cost issue that he was least willing to mention. However, this is indeed an unavoidable fact, so I can only bite the bullet and say to Fang Lang: "Yes, our production cost is 15% higher than that of American factories. Among them, labor cost accounts for 5%, and the other 10% is because we use new materials to reduce weight. In addition, we are only doing trial production in small batches for experimentation and acceptance, so the cost is high. " Fang Lang heard it, and thought, "That''s right!" He knew that this required a process, and it was impossible to complete it in one step, so he smiled and said: "It doesn''t matter, I can understand that the first thing we have to solve now is whether there is a problem. In the case of innovation, the cost is higher, which is acceptable. However, you have to understand that the target customers of our factory are not only the Brazilian army. You must know that the Brazilian army alone cannot support our such a large artillery factory. If we want to survive, our products must go international and compete with products from European and American countries. If the cost is higher than theirs, it will not be conducive to our sales. Technical workers in the United States are very easy to use, but the cost is too high. So, I hope you can find a way to train us more cheap local skilled workers. Used to reduce our production costs. do you understand me? " (end of this chapter) ~: blocked again Blocked again Im really sorry, bosses, chapter 374 has been blocked again. I dont know if I should continue to write about the plot of Southeast Asia. If this happens, my brother can only choose to skip the relevant plot. The specific unblocking time may not be determined until the editor is at work. Please be patient. (end of this chapter) Chapter 378: New items from the artillery factory Chapter 378 A new item in the artillery factory Giral Burr is a smart man, and Fang Lang understood what the other party meant as soon as he opened his mouth. After all, living in a capitalist society, what kind of people are capitalists, really don''t have too high expectations. But as the chief engineer of the factory, he also understood that the other party was right, so he could only grit his teeth and nodded: "Yes, boss! We will immediately arrange to recruit new workers to study in the factory. Complete the training of new workers as soon as possible to reduce the labor cost of our factory. " In fact, Girard Bull is only the chief technical engineer of the factory, and he is not responsible for the management of the factory alone. This artillery factory is now a joint-stock company, and the military also has shares in the factory, as well as some of the original giants in Brazil. . But the Fang family is still the absolute major shareholder and has absolute say in the factory''s personnel rights. Fang Lang did not bring other company leaders to accompany him this time, mainly to discuss some technical issues with Gerald Bull. The reason why I told him about the high labor cost of American skilled workers was that these people were actually recruited by Girard Burr from the United States. These things can only be discussed with Girard Bull, and other managements dare not dictate to these skilled workers. Fang Lang was also very satisfied with Girard Burr''s positive response to himself, and smiled and said: "Cost reduction is not enough, we also need to make our products more competitive. Your technological innovation is very good, but it is not enough. We must make our products have more advantages, such as longer range, greater power, faster movement speed, and higher accuracy. In this case, even if our products are more expensive than others, it is still acceptable, are you right? " Hearing the words, Gerald Bull''s eyes lit up, and he quickly said: "Don''t worry, boss, I''m already working on a new modification design. I plan to further expand the gun''s body-to-tube ratio to increase the gun''s shooting accuracy and range. After preliminary calculations, I plan to trial-produce a 155mm howitzer with 52 times the caliber. " This kind of long-barreled artillery is indeed the direction of future development. Of course, Fang Lang will not object, so he nodded to Girard Bull and said: "No problem, I believe you are professional in the design and manufacture of artillery. Although experimentation will do. However, I still have a few projects that I would like to ask you to conduct research on this time. I think these products are what we need in the future. " Fang Lang''s words made Geral Bull look serious, and looked at Fang Lang seriously: "Boss, please order!" As he spoke, he also took out a black leather notebook from his pocket, looking like a primary school student who wanted to take notes seriously. Fang Lang glanced at the other party, and nodded with satisfaction. No wonder the leaders like those leaders'' speeches, and the people below took out their notebooks to record them. This is respect! At this moment, Fang Lang felt that he was being respected, and his eyes when looking at Geral Bull became a little softer. After coughing twice, Fang Lang slowly opened his mouth and said: "I remember you told me at the beginning that you want to research new types of ammunition. I wonder if it has already started?" Giral Bull, who heard this, shook his head with a wry smile and said: "Boss, I''m really sorry, because I have been imitating and improving artillery, I don''t have time to develop new ammunition yet. However, please rest assured that after my review during this period, the artillery production process has been confirmed. I will soon be able to devote myself to the research of new ammunition. " Fang Lang saw the other party''s expression, smiled and comforted: "It''s okay. I''m not urging you. The reason why I ask you this question is mainly to know if you have ever been exposed to rockets! This new type of bomb that appeared in the war." As an artillery expert, Girard Bull is of course very clear about this new type of weapon that appeared in the war. After hearing Fang Lang''s question, he said without hesitation: "Yes, boss! In fact, this is not a new type of bomb. During the war, the United States had T34 multiple rocket launchers, Germany had smoker series rockets, and the Soviet Union had Katyusha rocket launchers. Would you like to research this ammo too? " "Yes, I heard that the Soviet-made Katyusha rocket launcher has an unparalleled advantage in firepower coverage. Do we have the ability to develop a rocket launcher with the same power?" Hearing Fang Lang''s words, Gerald Bull seemed a little tangled, and after a long while, he said slowly: "Boss, the rocket launcher is actually not that powerful. As you said, he has a great advantage in fire coverage, but other than that, there are no other advantages. The flames and smoke generated during launch alone have an obvious indication function, and it is easy for the enemy to lock the launch position. In addition, his accuracy is not high, and he can only cover a large area of ??fire. The final launch cost is too high! " Fang Lang was taken aback when he heard the words, but he never expected that Girard Bull was not very optimistic about the application of rockets. Although what the other party said is true, Fang Lang is very clear about the future development direction, and there is still a very large market for rockets. Especially in the future hometown, they played tricks with rocket launchers. So, nodded and said: "I understand what you said, but the existence of a weapon naturally has its reasons. We can''t just give up on him just because we discovered his problems, but we should constantly improve him so that he can overcome his problems. These shortcomings, become in line with our needs. What do you think? " Giral Bull had a shameful expression on his face when he heard the words, nodded to Fang Lang and said: "Boss, you are right, I am indeed too narrow-minded. But rockets, I really lack research, but I have a friend who is very obsessed with the development of rockets. I think I can wire him and ask him to come over and lead a dedicated research team tasked with developing a new type of bazooka system for the boss. " Fang Lang knows that there is indeed a big difference between rockets and artillery shells, because rockets often have a rocket engine that burns to form gas pressure that is ejected from the tail to generate force, and the rocket breaks away from the launch tube and shoots forward under the action of the reaction force . This is still different from the principle of launching shells. Regardless of whether Girard Burr really doesn''t know much about rockets, he took the initiative to hand over projects that he was not familiar with to other people for research. Fang Lang still Said very satisfied. At least, he did not regard the artillery factory as his own independent kingdom. Therefore, Fang Lang nodded without hesitation and said: "Yes, as the chief engineer of the factory, it is your right to recruit suitable engineers, and I agree with it. However, you can''t just leave it alone after recruiting people. You are the chief engineer of the factory, and you have to participate in the management of all the company''s projects. " As he spoke, he smiled and patted the other person on the shoulder. After all, Girard Burr is a real artillery expert, and he is also afraid that he will ask him to study projects that he is not familiar with. He just finds someone at random and comes over to fool him. Whether he succeeds or not is none of his business. That would be embarrassing, so I still have to emphasize to him the importance of his participation. Giral Bull heard the words, laughed loudly and said: "Don''t worry! Boss, the person I found is my true friend, and I won''t leave him alone. Although I am not very familiar with rockets, since it is a research project arranged by you, we will definitely take it seriously and strive to achieve breakthrough progress in the shortest possible time. Never disappoint your expectations! " "Haha. Alright, Girard, you''re doing business, I''m relieved. Then I think another project must be a child''s play for you! You should be able to solve it in a few days. " After hearing Fang Lang''s praise, although Girard Burr sounded very useful, he didn''t dare to really promise it directly. Any project can really be done in a few days. Although foreigners don''t like modesty, they don''t pretend to understand. If they know it, they know it. The chest should come down, and it will be embarrassing if you can''t do it at that time. So, Geral Bull quickly said: "Boss, you''d better tell me what the specific project is!" Seeing the other party''s rare cautious look, Fang Lang laughed and said: "Don''t worry! When I say this project is easy for you, it''s definitely really easy. The second item I plan to ask you to study is the mortar. I think this should not be difficult for you, right? " Hearing that it was a mortar, Girard Bull was obviously relieved and said: "So it''s a mortar! It''s really not that difficult. Even if you don''t tell me, I''m going to take the time to set up a project on my own and apply for related research. After all, there are too many application scenarios for mortars. Don''t worry, I can personally serve as the research team leader for the No. 2 project, and organize people to start research immediately. " Fang Lang smiled and waved his hands: "You can coordinate these yourself. Whether you need to be the research team leader in person is up to you. I have no requirements here. I believe you also have relevant experience in the caliber of the mortar. As far as the American 60mm, 81mm and 120mm caliber mortars are concerned, they perform quite well on the battlefield. We can imitate these models first to solve our problems. In the later stage, you can gradually improve it. " Girard Burr nodded when he heard the words. Fang Lang''s request was very practical, and he didn''t have too high aspirations to play new tricks. It wasn''t that he couldn''t play tricks on these foundations. Now my energy is relatively limited, and I can''t put too much experience on the mortar. The reason why Fang Lang only asked him to solve the problem of availability first is also to understand this. It''s not that Fang Lang thinks that mortars are not important, on the contrary, mortars are very important as infantry support firepower. But Fang Lang saw it when watching videos in later generations. The development trend of mortars in later generations is actually the same as that of artillery. They are all developing towards self-propelled. Mortar, will appear too eager. Moreover, he has a more important project that needs to be researched by the other party. Regarding Fang Lang''s request, Girard Bull nodded with a smile and said: "The boss can rest assured that if it is just imitation in the early stage, results will be achieved soon." Hearing this, Fang Lang nodded in satisfaction and said: "Very well, let''s move on to the next research project. I believe you should be very familiar with this project, which is the bazooka rocket launcher that is heavily equipped by the US military. At the same time, the German "Iron Fist" anti-tank grenade launcher was also manufactured using the same manufacturing principle. Do you know anything about this weapon? " (end of this chapter) Chapter 379: Escort Chapter 379 Escort You read it right, the third project that Fang Lang wants Girard Bull to study is the bazooka. Anyone who has watched movies or played games should be familiar with this thing. After all, in the movies of later generations, the figure of American soldiers yelling "RPG" at every turn, and then dodging in embarrassment is really impressive. The RPG was developed by the Soviet Union on the basis of the German Iron Fist. Of course its main function is to attack armored targets, but after subsequent development, many different warheads have been derived. His application scenarios have also been further expanded. In the war scenes of later generations, his probability of appearing is much higher than that of mortars. It''s not that he is better than a mortar, the main thing is that he is simple to use and cheap. As long as you are a person who can shoot, you can use it directly by holding it up. Unlike a mortar, it needs to be aimed and calculated in order to be able to shoot accurately. During World War II, the Allied forces were equipped with a large number of American-made bazooka rocket launchers, so Girard Bull must be very familiar with this simple and practical weapon. As soon as Fang Lang called out the name "Bazooka", he understood what the other party wanted. Nodding without hesitation: "Of course, this kind of rocket launcher is equipped in a large number in the Allied forces. It is the main battle equipment of the US military. Many factories in the United States have obtained his production authorization." "Then can we improve on the basis of the Bazooka and turn him into an individual anti-tank weapon with higher accuracy and longer range?" Fang Lang looked at Girard Bull expectantly, and the other party nodded when he heard the words: "No problem, but the working principle of this equipment is very simple, and there is not much room for improvement. You''d better be prepared." Fang Lang had expected this, and what he wanted to get was the same individual bazooka as RPG. If you want to have a longer range and greater power, you need to look at the later anti-tank missiles, which are obviously beyond the working range of individual bazookas. nodded and said: "No problem. We need to solve the problem of these equipment first, and then slowly improve them to see if we can obtain more advanced performance through continuous improvement." These equipment could have been produced and developed by other factories, but the time will definitely be affected. The artillery factory is the military factory with the most advanced equipment, the most equipment, and the highest quality workers in his hands. With so many advantages, it would be too wasteful not to make good use of them. While Fang Lang was visiting the artillery factory, a trial of the century related to him was going on in the capital Rio de Janeiro. The brothers Briso Eddie and Raymond Eddie of the Eddie family in Brazil were taken out of prison by a team of heavily armed bailiffs and sent to a military court under the Brazilian Ministry of Defense for trial. This trial has attracted a lot of public attention. After all, the treasonous crimes of this family have been followed and reported by the news media every day, and almost everyone knows it. Even if they are illiterate, when two people stand together, they can plausibly talk about a lot of gossip about the family. After all, many tabloids in Brazil may not be able to dig out the latest criminal evidence about the Eddie family, but the gossip stories among family members can be fabricated as long as they have imagination? Besides, there is already a heroine named Mizuno Xiaoling, who can play to her heart''s content. For a while, gossip about the Eddie family was rampant, and every Brazilian could tell several versions. In the Eddie family, the men who have had an affair with Mizuno Xiaoling are not just the father and son of Craig Eddie and Raymond Eddie. Even Brisso Eddie, who has a low sense of presence in this case, has also become one of the leading actors. Female members of the family were also repeatedly combined with men such as housekeepers and servants. In short, the entire Eddie family has become the most filthy existence that Brazilian people can think of. Because the Eddie family controls the security system in Brazil, many people who have been bullied by the police vent their hatred on each other. Even the police in Brazil are often pointed at by civilians when they walk on the street. The government did not make any publicity about the trial of the two men. The venue of the trial is also a military court, which is not open to the public. But it still attracted the attention of the general public. Early in the morning, a large number of civilians arrived at the gate of the prison from all directions, using various means of transportation. Want to witness the process of brothers Brisso Eddie and Raymond Eddie being court-martialed. The bailiffs who were in charge of escorting the two brothers in the prison had just lifted them out of the prison when they were told that the outside had been surrounded by civilians and reporters rushing from all directions. As the **** commander, Milovic felt very nervous when he heard this situation, and hurriedly asked his superiors for help. "Sir, the situation is very tense now, the prison is surrounded by reporters and civilians. I am very worried that they will harm the prisoners, which may cause accidents in our **** mission. " "What''s going on, how did journalists and civilians know when you started the **** mission. Don''t you even have this sense of confidentiality? " The superior was furious when he heard Milovich''s report. And Milovich also looked dissatisfied when he heard the question from his superiors. What do you mean we don''t have a sense of confidentiality. How can you be sure that this operation is the leaked news from us! But it is impossible for him to talk back to the other party directly, so he can only continue: "Sir, there is no way to verify where the news leaked from. But our team only has 20 people, and there are more than 200 journalists and civilians outside the prison. The warden has arranged for prison guards to help maintain order, but looking at the situation now, it is obviously not enough. We urgently need to strengthen our strength. And that''s just the danger at the prison gate. Our entire **** process lasted nearly 20 kilometers, and I was very worried about whether there would be other situations on the road. " "Then what are you going to do now, the time for the trial to start is getting closer! Even if I send you support now, it will be too late. " Milovich seemed to have expected this situation. He looked at the office and confirmed that no outsiders were there. He said directly: I want to ask the prison guards to help, pretend to **** the prisoner out, and lure the outsiders away. Our two teams took an ordinary car and quietly followed behind to send the real prisoner to the court. " As soon as the superior heard this, he stopped doing it immediately and scolded loudly: "No, it''s too risky. Something goes wrong, can you take responsibility? " Milovich seemed to have expected the reaction of his superiors, and said again: "Sir, the road from prison to court martial is full of people and reporters waiting to see Brother Eddie. If we continue to leave the prison openly, we will definitely become the focus of everyone, Being surrounded by people all the way, there is no way to guarantee that you will arrive at the court on time. According to my plan, after everyone''s attention has been attracted, we can smoothly send the criminal to the court to participate in the trial. As for taking risks, I dont think its risky. Instead, according to the original plan, letting the two of them swagger in the prison van and sending them to the court is the real risk. After all, all the people hate the two of them very much, and I am afraid that some people will not be able to help but do something to them. " Regarding this point, the officer and Milovich have the same views. Both of them think that the danger of escorting the two people may be that someone will want to directly do something to them. So, they are nominally responsible for escorting Brother Eddie to the court for trial, but in fact they need to protect the two so that they can reach the court alive for trial. After Milovich''s superior heard his suggestion, he still refused without hesitation: "No, we have to follow the procedures. I can come forward and ask the warden to arrange prison guards to assist you in escorting the prisoner to the court according to the original plan. However, you are absolutely not allowed to change the plan without permission and transport the prisoner in a car. An accident happened, and no one can take responsibility. " Milovich was very annoyed when he saw that the superior did not enter, and hung up the phone immediately, cursing in his mouth: "Responsibility, responsibility, I''m only afraid of taking responsibility all day long, I don''t have any courage, I''m a vegetarian, you bastard." A soldier standing beside Milovich raised his hand and glanced at it. He whispered to him with the watch on his hand: "Head, what should we do now, time is running out." From the upstairs of the prison, Milovich glanced at the densely packed crowd outside the gate, and felt that at this time, the danger of taking the prisoner out of the prison directly was too high according to the original plan of using four cars to **** a prison car. Everyone, as long as they saw the prison car, knew that Brother Eddie must be locked in the prison car. Everyone will surround them, and it will be too dangerous to send the two of them to the military court smoothly. Finally, Milovich gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and simply slapped the table and said: "It doesn''t matter, just follow my plan and let the prison guard brothers **** the two fake prisoners to attract everyone''s attention. We will take a private car and take another route to send the two to the court." The people behind them all looked worried when they heard what Milovic said, and the soldier who just spoke directly said: "Head, but this plan has not been authorized! Go wrong and we''re screwed! " Milovich glanced at everyone in the room. Here are brothers who have gone through life and death together, and everyone trusts each other. After hearing what the soldier said, Milovich looked at the crowd and said: "Only our brothers know about this plan, can''t you trust our brothers?" Hearing this, the soldier was also anxious, got up and said: "Head, I didn''t mean that." Milovich interrupted him with a wave of his hand: "Let me tell you the truth! This mission is not easy. According to intelligence, the younger brother of the pulsatilla who was slaughtered on the island has already entangled a group of desperadoes and vowed to kill Brother Eddie directly. If we escorted the prison car directly to the military court as originally planned, an attack would happen 100% of the time, so I wanted to transport the prisoner quietly in a small car. " Everyone in the room was shocked when they heard this, and their hands holding the guns tightened a little. "What? Head, does the superior know the news? Why only send us a small team to be responsible for the escort? " A soldier looked at Milovic in disbelief and said. Hearing this, Milovich shook his head with a wry smile and said: "I don''t know if the superior knows the news. But I can assure everyone that the information I received is absolutely accurate. This is also the reason why I must **** it quietly. I can''t play with our brethren''s lives. " (end of this chapter) Chapter 380: Mingxiu Plank Road Chapter 380 Ming Xiu Plank Road All the escorts gathered in the office began to squeeze their fists unconsciously. Several people have already started to organize their weapons and equipment. Everyone understands that this task will not be so easy. Seeing that everyone stopped talking, Milovic understood that everyone agreed to his plan. He didn''t say any more, and went out directly to communicate with the warden to let the prison guard be responsible for the plan to attract attention. At the same time, in an ordinary house in Rio de Janeiro, several agents from the Second Section of the Logistics Department with serious expressions were also closely watching the **** mission. "Sir, through telephone monitoring, Milovich, who was in charge of the **** task, just proposed to McGuire to change the **** plan, but McGuire refused." "Oh! How does he want to change plans?" "Milovic hoped that the prison guards would pretend to be escorts and **** the prison van to attract everyone''s attention. They would use the trolley themselves to secretly send Brother Eddie to the court." "Do you think this plan is feasible?" It seems feasible, but the risk is too high, and if they are found out, they will be very troublesome. Because it is difficult for them to obtain timely support. " "Then do you think this Milovich has other plans?" "Sir, what do you mean, he may have intentionally weakened the **** force?" "No, it''s too early to draw conclusions, who is a human and who is a ghost. We still can''t see clearly. But time will tell. " "But now, McGuire has rejected Milovich''s proposal to change the plan, so he can only follow the original plan! Why don''t we send help and make sure Brother Eddie goes to trial? " "Hehe. This is not necessarily the case, Milovic is not a guy who likes to follow orders. McGuire also knows very well what kind of person Milovich is. He refuses the other party to change his plan, so he knows that the other party will definitely act according to his ideas. Let those who monitor McGuire keep an eye out to see if he will pass on information. Don''t think about sending people to help, this is not our task. " "Sir, I really don''t understand. Now that Brother Eddie is about to be sent to a military court for trial. We have received information that someone is going to attack Brother Eddie. Shouldn''t we report this information. Let the **** team be more vigilant, increase the **** strength, and let these two **** accept the trial smoothly? Why don''t we do this instead of just quietly watching everything happen? Could it be that the above wants Brother Eddie to be directly shot to death by those guys who want revenge? " "Who told you that the people who are staring at Brother Eddie now want to seek revenge from them?" "Is not it?" "Hehe. Things are not that simple. Although the Eddie family was stunned by the sudden attack, they would not be able to react for a while. Combined with our help, the power of their police club was quickly cleared. But who told you that they were beaten down just like that. " "Could it be that the Eddie family has hidden backhands?" "Hehe. Let''s wait and see what happens. Regardless of whether the Eddie family has other backers, the current lively situation is obviously abnormal." Soon, another person opened the door and reported: "Sir, McGuire just called a hotel." "hostel?" "Yes, we didn''t know the people in this hotel." "What was the call?" "The **** team will use a small car to secretly **** Brother Eddie to a military court for trial." "Huh. Looks like McGuire and I came to the same conclusion. He knows Milovich very well! " "Sir, what shall we do now?" "Immediately find out who is in this hotel and what is their purpose?" "Yes, sir!" Everyone in the prison was ready. Prison guards pretending to be escorts took four cars and surrounded a prison car in the middle. As the gate of the prison opened slowly, the prison guards who were responsible for maintaining the continuation outside drove the journalists and civilians who surrounded the door to both sides, giving way to the aisle in the middle, so that vehicles could leave smoothly. With the appearance of the prison car, the crowd at the door broke out into more intense shouting. Everyone chanted neat slogans, and people kept throwing stones or garbage at the prison car. The prison guards on both sides who were responsible for maintaining the continuity quickly raised their shields. Try to maintain order and avoid being rushed into the convoy by the crowd. The reporters also pointed their cameras at the prison car to take pictures from time to time, hoping to capture the appearance of Brother Eddie. But the escorts had already prepared for this. The windows of the prison car had already been sealed, making it impossible to see clearly what was going on inside the prison car. There are prison guards to maintain order, seeing that the prison car is about to break through the siege of the crowd and enter the road. A group of crazy people began to rush towards the vehicles parked on the side of the road, and even many people without vehicles got on their own horses and began to follow closely behind the **** convoy. The **** convoy entering the road did not dare to stop at all. The drivers of the vehicles all stepped on the accelerator, and the vehicles emitted black smoke, trying to escape these crazy people quickly. But since he is a crazy person, how could he get rid of it so easily! More and more people joined the ranks of chasing the **** team. At the gate of the prison, which was still extremely crowded, soon there were only two or three kittens left. Less than ten minutes after everyone was distracted by the prison car, two cars and a truck drove out of the prison again. The convoy followed the departing convoy of prison cars, advanced two or three kilometers, and then turned to another road. It is the police officers of the prison anti-riot team who are responsible for leading the prison van to attract attention. The captain of the anti-riot team is a middle-aged Italian. crowd. Yes, the boring crowd, neither Milovic nor the warden, told this anti-riot captain named Anthony that they might face an attack. He thought that his task was to take the boring crowd out of the prison and let the real prisoners go to the court for trial. So, in his view, this task is very easy. But just five or six kilometers after he left the prison, an oncoming large truck directly crashed into the lead vehicle of their convoy. directly stopped them on the road. Then more than 30 gunmen jumped out from the side of the road, and began to pour firepower crazily at the entire convoy. Anthony, who had just got out of the car and was about to check what was going on in the head car where the accident happened, was stunned instantly. Fortunately, he was a trained professional. Although he didn''t know why he was attacked, he immediately reacted and shouted to the people behind him: "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!" Then began to lie on the ground and quickly returned fire to the gunmen on both sides. Although his reaction was not slow, the opponent was obviously prepared. As the first gunshot started, the gunmen of more than 30 people never stopped with their weapons. The reason why he also gave his reaction time is because the first target of the gunmen was not them at all, but the prisoner van in the convoy. Their prison car was not bulletproof at all, so, in just a few seconds, the prison car became riddled with holes, making it unbearable to look directly at. The two policemen responsible for driving the prison van also died instantly. The boring crowd who had been following the convoy all the time, seeing this scene, also ran away in fright, fearing that they would suffer disaster. Many bold reporters raised their cameras like cats smelling fish. Anthony and others lying on the ground were simply unable to organize an effective counterattack. Because they were not prepared for the attack at all, everyone thought it was just an action to divert the attention of the reporters, and they never thought that they would encounter an attack. The gunman who launched the attack had a clear target. After stopping the vehicle, except for suppressing them, the escorts, all the firepower was concentrated on the prison body for the first time. As the prison van was hit by two grenades, a violent explosion occurred, and the attack of the attackers also came to an end, and an orderly retreat began. During the whole process, Anthony and other prison guards were almost always suppressed and beaten. It was not until the attackers achieved their goal and retreated in batches that they had the opportunity to re-examine the situation on the entire battlefield. It doesnt matter if you dont look at it. At first glance, Anthony is almost crying. Except for the two police officers who were responsible for driving the prison car, everyone in his explosion-proof team was injured on the spot. The prison car they were in charge of transporting had been blown to the ground, and a raging fire was ignited, and the entire prison car was surrounded by fire. Anthony had no time to think about it and could only call out to the people around him to help put out the fire. At this time, several reporters had boldly rushed in front of Anthony, looked at the prison car burned in the fire, and asked: "Mr. Police, there is no one in the prison car you are escorting. Can you tell me where Brother Eddie is now?" Anthony, who heard this question, was furious and cursed at the reporter: "Didn''t you see we were just attacked? My brother is still lying in a pool of blood, and you come up to me and ask me where those two **** are? You bastards, get away from me right now, or I''ll arrest you as criminals who attacked the police. " The reporter didnt feel scared at all, and continued to take pictures of the entire convoy, and continued to ask: "Mr. Policeman, during the gangster attack just now, you failed to organize an effective defense at all. Does it mean that your combat effectiveness is too low. Do we have reason to worry about your ability to maintain law and order. " Anthony, who heard this, wished he could shoot the **** reporter right away. But he knew it was all he could think about. While the fight here was in full swing, on another road less than two blocks away from this road, the **** team led by Milovic was quickly crossing the street. The gunfire from here naturally reached Milovich''s ears, which made all the escorts even more nervous. Fortunately they changed their plans, otherwise they would be the ones being attacked now. The team members who were driving said to Milovich with lingering fear: "Head, fortunately we listened to your advice and changed our plan, otherwise we would have been miserable." Hearing this, Milovic glared at the other party with a serious face and said: "Don''t be too happy too early, the enemy is not a fool, and will soon find out that something is wrong after launching the attack. We are not safe until we have successfully sent the prisoner to the military court. It is up to us to be vigilant, our plans are not foolproof. " When everyone heard Milovich''s words, their expressions became serious, and they began to check the equipment in their hands, preparing for an attack that might come at any time. (end of this chapter) Chapter 381: Darkness Chapter 381 Dark Chencang Just as the entire **** convoy secretly raised its vigilance, preparing for an attack that might come at any time. Milovich''s superior, the hotel McGuire called to notify, more than twenty young men in black suits and peaked caps walked out from the back door of the hotel and directly boarded the five vehicles waiting in the back alley of the hotel. car. These people didn''t speak the whole time, and they seemed very quiet, because the back alley of the hotel was very quiet, and no one came in and out at ordinary times, so their entry and exit did not attract people''s attention at all. No one will notice the long guns they swaggered in their hands. As everyone boarded the car, the vehicle began to start slowly. When the vehicles drove out of the back alley, in a cafe on the corner of the street, a middle-aged man in a suit and leather shoes in his thirties casually glanced at these vehicles. His eyes were fixed, and he quickly looked away. When the vehicle was out of his sight, he went directly to the bar of the cafe, stuffed a banknote into the boss, and exposed the gun at his waist, signaling the boss to stay away from him. Seeing the boss leaving wisely, he picked up the phone on the desk, looked around, and confirmed that the people around him could not hear what he was saying, and then dialed the phone in a low voice. "What? You mean these guys aren''t like normal shooters?" "Yes, sir. They are well-trained, and I think they are very professional. And, they use square scarves to cover their faces in the car. This behavior is very rare in Brazil." "Have you seen what some of them look like?" "No, but the people in the hotel should have seen it." "Don''t go to the hotel to ask, maybe this hotel belongs to them. You go to the hotel to open a room as a customer and see if you can find anything unusual. I think they are the people we have been looking for. is responsible for waiting at the hotel, and now we cannot confirm whether they will come back. We treat them as if they will come back. If they come back, you have to play it by ear, understand? " "Yes, sir. Then please arrange people to take over my monitoring work. There are a total of 20 of them, each in five black Buick cars, and leave eastward along Fourth Avenue. The specific destination is unknown. " "Don''t worry, someone else will take over the rest of the work, so be careful in the hotel." "Yes, sir!" The middle-aged man who hung up the phone didn''t stay in the store. He went out and got in the car. After driving the car around, he drove to the hotel not far away. When he got out of the car again, he had already changed his attire. He seemed to be carrying a suitcase in a dusty manner, and pushed open the door of the hotel. All this did not attract the attention of others. At this time, in the residential room where the second division of the logistics department is located, everyone who received this information has already moved. "The first team, from now on, start investigating and monitoring this Chief McGuire. I want to know everything about him, including how he got to where he is today step by step. Do you understand?" "Yes, sir." "Second team, keep an eye on this group of gunmen, don''t stop their actions, but I ask them not to leave your sight no matter where they go, understand?" "Yes, sir!" "We have the opportunity to take pictures of each of them, and we will investigate them. I need to know where they come from. " "yes." "Everyone act, if the Eddie brothers are rescued this time, make sure they are under our surveillance at all times. I want to know how many people in Brazil are helping them, understand? " "Yes, sir!" "Okay, everyone, move and don''t let the fish get off the hook." As the task was completed, people kept leaving from this ordinary house. The team of Milovich and others who escorted Brother Eddie had already marched for more than half an hour without knowing it, and they saw that they were less than five kilometers away from the destination military court. The vehicle was walking in the urban area of ??Rio de Janeiro again, and the escorts on the vehicle also began to slowly relax their vigilance. Even Milovic, the captain, seemed to feel a bit of relaxation. But danger often appears when people relax their vigilance. Milovic, who had just turned a street corner, found that two cars had been involved in an accident at the intersection ahead and were stuck in the middle of the road. Two policemen were dealing with it. Seeing this situation, Milovic frowned and wanted to turn around and change lanes. But on the opposite road, there were actually two trucks unloading on the road, which happened to block the turning position of the vehicles, forcing the vehicles to continue moving forward. At this moment, the alarm bell rang in Milovich''s heart, and the hairs on his body stood on end. Without hesitation, he drew out the weapon in his hand, and shouted at everyone in the car: "Alert!" Everyone was stunned for a moment, but they quickly realized that they took up the weapons in their hands and fixed their eyes on the pedestrians on both sides of the street. The driver also quickly said: "Head, the road ahead is blocked, what should we do?" Milovich heard the words and said without hesitation: "Don''t stop, let''s rush over, and anyone who dares to block will be shot, shoot to kill!" Everyone in the car looked solemn, and responded in unison: "yes!" I dont know if it was the preparation work of the people in the car that attracted the attention of the passers-by on the road. Everyone felt that the passers-by on the road were looking at themselves and others with strange eyes. As the convoy got closer and closer to the vehicle that had the traffic accident, someone from the few cars parked in front had already got off the station on the road and signaled them to stop. Obviously wanted to tell them about the accident ahead and couldn''t leave. But the driver ignored it. Instead, he slammed on the accelerator and rushed into the opposite lane, trying to drive away the two connected accident vehicles and get out of this obvious encirclement. This kind of behavior caused the pedestrians on the road to scream, and the two policemen who dealt with the accident seemed to be awakened by the sound of screaming. looked at this team. Seeing three cars rushing towards them without slowing down, they quickly pulled out their guns and shot at them. It is impossible to confirm who fired the first shot, but with the first shot, the scene began to fall into chaos, and the gunfire kept crackling. The soldiers in charge of the **** in the Milovic convoy opened the windows one after another, pointed their guns outward, and aimed at the surrounding pedestrians and people who got off the car, because these people all took out weapons in their hands at this time, and pointed at the escort. The convoy opened fire. Fortunately, Milovic reacted quickly and did not stop the convoy. Instead, he directly broke through the accident vehicle blocking the road, disrupting the plan of the killers. Watching Milovics convoy break through the blockade, someone yelled: "What are you still doing in a daze, chase after me, absolutely don''t let them run away, kill them all." When everyone around heard the words, they all said in unison: "yes!" I saw pedestrians on the road, the driver and passengers in the car, both parties in the accident and the police, all jumped into the car one after another, and began to follow closely behind the Milovic convoy. Milovic rushed out of the encirclement encircled by the enemy nervously. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, he saw the densely packed pursuers from the rearview mirror of the car. Involuntarily sucked in a breath of cold air. This is in a downtown area, these killers are so blatant, they don''t care about the government at all! Milovic, who had just rushed through an intersection, found that five cars rushed out from the road behind them and blocked them between them and the killers, shooting at the killers chasing after them. This sudden and unexpected change made both sides stunned. Milovich, who was the first to react, said happily: "Reinforcements are coming, everyone be careful, don''t accidentally injure yourself!" Everyone was overjoyed when they heard the words, and cheered a few times excitedly. Soon, two of the five cars chased after them. In the front car, someone reached out and took out a certificate, and while gesturing to everyone, he shouted: "Our own people, our own people! Don''t go straight, there is an ambush ahead, follow us." Everyone was taken aback when they heard the words, and the driver even looked at Milovich. Milovich obviously didn''t expect the other party to tell him that there was an ambush ahead. As for the other party''s certificate, he didn''t see it clearly either. No one in a high-speed car has such good eyesight to tell which department''s certificate the other party is holding. But judging from the fact that the opponent''s people helped him intercept the chasing soldiers, it can be judged that this is reinforcements. Milovich, who had no time to think about it, met the driver''s gaze and nodded: "Follow them!" The driver saw that Milovich had made up his mind, so he stopped thinking about directing the direction, followed the other car, and walked to another road on the right. After walking two intersections, Milovic judged the direction and confirmed that the direction of the convoy was indeed towards the court-martial, so he felt relieved. But Milovic, who had just relaxed, found that the vehicle leading the way suddenly turned left and drove into a factory. After a while, their three cars followed them inexplicably and drove into this completely unfamiliar factory. The aisle of the factory was very narrow. When the car in front braked suddenly, two of their three cars were blocked in the aisle of the factory. Milovic, who realized something was wrong, just wanted to make a move. A light came on on the right, and a heavy machine gun was pointed at them. Whether it was Milovic or the soldiers under him, they panicked and became stiff all over, not knowing how to deal with it. Several men in suits and top hats got on and off the vehicle leading the way. Each of them wore a square scarf on their faces. The leader said unhurriedly: "Milovich, there are two heavy machine guns facing us here. I think you should know what to do at this time, right?" Seeing this scene, Milovich still doesn''t understand that he and others are being fooled. Hateing his teeth itching, he could only bite the bullet and say: "Who are you? What do you want?" The other party smiled, and said indifferently: "It doesn''t matter who we are, don''t worry, as long as you are obedient, we will not hurt you. Now everyone, hand over your weapons. " The people escorting the team never expected that they had worked so hard to break through layers of obstacles, and were finally about to complete the task, but in the end they made a mistake when they were approaching the destination. This really makes people want to cry without tears. Seeing that everyone was silent, the other party smiled and said: "Are you still going to have a pointless struggle? Milovich, why bother! You are now under the guns of two heavy machine guns. If you make a slight movement, you will be beaten into a sieve. You dont think about yourself, you have to think about your brothers, right? Everyone has parents, wives and children, so dying here for no apparent reason is not worth it! " Actually, under such circumstances, Milovic has no other way to go. Turning his head and looking at the brothers who followed him through life and death, he sighed and said: "Can you ensure the safety of our brethren?" The man with a square scarf on his face smiled and said: "Of course, the people we want are not you. Give us the people you escort, and you can leave. " Milovich took a deep look at the other party, but unfortunately, the other party was wearing a mask, so not only could he not see the other party''s appearance, he could not even see his expression. He really wanted to hold Brother Eddie hostage and restrain him, but as far as he knew, the people who came to attack them wanted to kill Brother Eddie, so it was impossible for him to care about Brother Eddie''s life or death. So, he didn''t dare to bet on whether the other party would give them together. After hesitating again and again, Milovich had no choice but to take off the weapon on his body. The man wearing the square scarf saw this, nodded in satisfaction, and waved behind him. Soon they got out of the car and collected all the weapons and equipment of the escorting team members. Gathered all the **** team members together again. "Mr. Milovich, today I will wrong you to go to the room to rest. As for when you can leave, it depends on when your police force can find you." As he spoke, he drove Milovich and others into a small room. Seeing this scene, Milovich was relieved. It seemed that the other party really had no intention of killing them all. I just dont know who these people are. After Milovich and the others were gathered in the small room of the factory building, the leading man quickly came to the truck compartment escorted by Milovich and the others, and saw two brothers Eddie, wearing hoods, handcuffed in the compartment. The man climbed into the vehicle, lifted his hood, and saw that Brisso Eddie was indeed what they were looking for, and quickly took out the key to unlock the handcuffs of the two. Respectfully said to Brisso Eddie: "Boss! You are safe now, I will take you away." Briso Eddie, who had been wearing a hood all the time, narrowed his eyes slightly due to the light. After finally adapting to the light, he saw the person in front of him clearly. A satisfied smile appeared on his face and said: "Batley Crow, you really didn''t disappoint me, what''s the situation now?" The man named Bartley Crow waved to the people behind him, saying: "Bring the new clothes for the boss." Soon, someone came up with two new sets of clothes. Raymond Eddie on the side was obviously a little overwhelmed by this sudden change. Looking at his elder brother, he has casually got up and started to clean himself up. hurriedly asked: "Brother, what''s the situation now!" Hearing this, Brisso Eddie slowly turned his head to look at Raymond Eddie and said: "You still have the face to ask what''s going on, everything now is thanks to you, you bastard." As he spoke, he stood up, kicked Raymond Eddie **** the shoulder, and kicked him onto the carriage. (end of this chapter)
