Chapter 908 Conqueror's Welfare (Fourth Update, please subscribe)
The battle is over!
With the surrender of the defenders, Montevideo was captured.Some troops left Montevideo and turned to the north, and some troops entered other areas to wipe out the remnants of the enemy. For the troops stationed in Montevideo, the long-unenjoyed leisure days came.

The streets were full of soldiers, few citizens at first, but as in any post-war city, in the days after the fighting ended there were more and more citizens.

After all, for ordinary people, they always need to live. In order to maintain their lives, many people sell their non-essential items there. They set up stalls on the side of the road to sell oil paintings, duvets, silver tableware, etc. items, sometimes even some china.

"Hey, the Qianlong year of the Qing Dynasty..."

Looking at the words on the back of the Guangcai porcelain plate, Lin Yili asked.

"Is it a complete set?"

"Yes, sir, there are 78 pieces in total, including the tea set. You can see all of them here. This is the dowry given by my father when I got married..."

The old woman replied respectfully, even though it was only a few days, the local citizens discovered that these outsiders are indeed extremely civilized, they have never robbed, and they will definitely give money when they buy things.

"how much is it?"

"Ten Mingyuan, sir."

"It's too expensive, six yuan!"

Undoubtedly, six yuan can definitely be sold. After buying a set of Guangcai porcelain, Lin Yili directly took them to the nearby military post office, packed them briefly, and sent them home .

Soldiers in the Ming Dynasty have corresponding benefits-free postage of 40 kilograms of packages every month, so after the battle, the military post office is the busiest, and the soldiers will always buy all kinds of goods, that is Souvenirs they bring to their families.

“The stuff on the street is really cheap!”

Walking on the streets of Montevideo, Li Pingcai looked at the vendors on the roadside in surprise. Many things were cheap, as if they were picked up for nothing.

"Can't it be cheap? Basically, ordinary people sell things on the street, and they sell things from their own homes. They just sell some money to make ends meet..."

Li Tieliang, who has experienced troubled times, naturally knows who the vendors on the street are.

"Hey, it's not easy!"

With a long sigh, Li Tieliang said.

"Okay, let's not talk about this, you inquire, there is a factory there, let's go and have a look."

After sending the package, Lin Yili, who was walking on the street, noticed two Ming people walking there, asking about something.

So he immediately walked over and asked.

"Hey, where are you from?"

Foreigners?Ming's soldiers... are quite fluent in official speech.

"Sir, we are from Yingtian and want to do business here."

"He came from Yingtian, doing business."

Looking at the compatriots in front of him, Lin Yili specifically exhorted.

"Don't wander around. The street seems to be calm now, but no one knows if there are rout soldiers hiding. If you encounter them, it will be over. By the way, what business do you guys do? The headquarters plan There are business districts, where there are more gendarmes, so there must be no problem with security.”

Seeing that the foreign officers and soldiers in front of him spoke very politely, Li Tieliang did not hide their intentions.

"You want to set up a factory?"

"Yes, that's why I came here to see if there is any chance."

"Opportunity? Opportunity is just like you wandering around like a headless chicken. You go to the headquarters to inquire. There are dedicated businessmen over there..."

As soon as the words came to his lips, Lin Yiidean saw a closed machine factory he passed by before, so he said to them.

"I also know a factory, about three blocks away from here, do you want to go and have a look?"

"That would be great."

Sometimes the encounters in life are always so wonderful. At least for the Li family and his son, they were like headless chickens. They found a factory as soon as they came here. A seal was posted, but it indicated where he should go.

The owner of this factory is Brazilian, so the factory is of course an enemy product.

So they found the headquarters again, in the business department, but just as soon as they expressed their intention, the other party flipped through the catalog and said.

"The Alfonso Iron Works! Do you want to buy it?"

"Yes, sir, we want to go there first and see what machines are there..."

Before they finished speaking, the sergeant who was in charge of entertaining them spoke directly.

"Can you guarantee to resume production within half a month?"

"what?"

The Li family father and son were a little confused.

"Here is its equipment list. There are 23 machines in total. Take a look..."

After handing over the list, the sergeant said,

"If you can guarantee to resume production within half a month, you only need to pay a deposit of 1000 yuan, and that's it..."

"Margin? What margin?"

Li Tieliang, who was looking at the equipment list, was a little puzzled, and looked at the military master.

"It's the contracting deposit. Although it is enemy property, before the disposal plan is issued, the military is just hosting it. You can contract it, resume production, and hire workers. After all, the market will always return to normal..."

The sergeant's explanation made Li's father and son dumbfounded. They didn't even dare to think that there was such a good thing in the world.

Everything was like a dream. After they signed the contract, the father and father still didn't react.

"Pingcai, is this factory ours?"

When he walked out of the headquarters, Li Tieliang's eyes were still full of disbelief. This matter... was like a dream.

"It's not ours. Didn't you listen to that officer Xu? We're only temporarily contracting the factory. We have to pay the rent. The key is in the future..."

Li Pingcai pursed his lips and swallowed a little excitedly.

"If it is disposed of later, the contractor can give priority to participate in the disposal..."

In fact, this is the disposal of enemy property.

As far as the imperial army is concerned, they don't mind "subletting" the confiscated or found enemy property to their own businessmen in order to achieve the purpose of economic recovery. As for things like future disposal, there are naturally special agencies to deal with them .

At that time, factories, houses and land originally worth tens of thousands to tens of thousands of yuan will be sold to those visionary people at extremely low prices, although some assets will inevitably flow into the hands of some people.

What is certain, however, is that for anyone with a vision, this is the war bonus for adventurers, who will surely be richly rewarded for their courage.

A few days later, the factory that was renamed "Zhenhua Machinery Factory" reopened. The workers in the factory were the employees of the original factory, and even the raw materials used in the factory were leftover stocks from before.

When the steam engine was running again, Li Tieliang, who had transformed into "Boss Li", couldn't believe it.

If it weren't for the war, who would dare to believe all this?

No one dared to believe that all this happened, but Li Tieliang knew that from now on, the fate of their old Li family had undergone earth-shaking changes.

Hearing the roar of the machine in his ear, he couldn't help grinning, with a heartfelt smile on his face...
