Go back in time and be a chaebol

Chapter 122 (First update, please collect)
  He came to Havana again, and the person who picked him up at the airport was still Song Bing.

"Yi'an."

Different from the past, Song Bing seemed very enthusiastic when seeing him now. When did this enthusiasm start?

It probably started a few months ago when he donated a large amount of military supplies and returned to China. Since then, everyone's eyes on him have changed.

At first, others thought he was rich, but what happened later?
  When the title of "Presidential Agent" came out, others looked at him with more complicated eyes.

Envy, awe...all kinds of eyes, with various purposes. Li Yian has adapted to all of this.

After getting in the car, Song Bing looked at the man next to her and said.

"Yi'an, my father heard that you are here and wants to invite you to my home to talk to you about the next step of cooperation."

"Okay, it just so happens that I have something to ask Uncle Song."

Li Yian did have something to ask Song Chengjun.

After all, now that the space has expanded, more cargo can be loaded. After temporary expansion, tens of thousands of cubic meters can be installed to hold tens of thousands of tons of sugar.

The supply is increasing tenfold at a time, and I really need to talk to him.

"What, ten thousand tons!"

Song Chengjun lost his voice and said in shock.

"If possible, I hope to deliver [-] tons of sugar by the end of the year. Uncle Song, do you have any questions?"

"Forty thousand tons, forty thousand tons..."

Song Chengjun rubbed his hands excitedly and said.

"No problem, no problem, Zhiyuan, although the output of Huashang Sugar Factory is only about 3 tons, there are many small sugar factories run by locals in Cuba. Let alone [-] tons, even [-] tons, there is no question."

"Then one hundred thousand tons!"

Li Yian added the code directly.

After all, the war will end in a year, and such huge profits will not last long. When the war ends and shipping resumes, by then, supplies such as sugar will return to their original prices.

"One hundred thousand tons!"

Song Chengjun looked completely dull.

How much is one hundred thousand tons?

Now Cuba's annual output is only five to six million tons, which is almost 2% of the total output!

"What, Uncle Song, are you in trouble?"

Li Yian asked rhetorically.

"No, no problem. It's just that there is no problem in transporting these sugars."

Song Chengjun said repeatedly.

"Uncle Song, don't worry about it. I will find a way to transport it. Uncle Song only needs to concentrate on preparing the goods."

"Don't worry Zhiyuan, I will definitely prepare all the goods. I will look back and see if there is a suitable sugar factory and buy one. In fact, there are many Chinese businessmen who want to buy sugar factories. After all, the price of sugar is now high and the profits are very high. rich."

Hearing that Song Chengjun wanted to buy a sugar factory, Li Yian said quickly.

"Uncle Song, the current price of sugar is entirely due to the war, because the Japanese occupied Southeast Asia. Although it will take several years to recover after the war, the profits of the sugar factories in the next few years will be considerable, but that is the immediate thing, besides... …”

When trying to persuade Song Chengjun to give up the idea of ​​setting up a sugar factory, Li Yian naturally thought of his Cuban brother's fate more than ten years later. After the bearded man came to power, what kind of impact would the Chinese people in Cuba, mostly engaged in business, suffer?
  Thinking of this, Li Yian raised his eyebrows slightly, thought for a moment, and then said. “Uncle Song, are you interested in developing somewhere else?”

Song Chengjun asked.

"Other places? America?"

"No, it's not the United States, it's Borneo. To be honest, Uncle Song, I bought a piece of land there."

"Bought a piece of land?"

Song Chengjun looked at the young man in front of him in confusion. What does this mean?
  "Yes, the area is not big, just tens of thousands of square kilometers. The Japanese are currently occupying it. After the war, everything is waiting for improvement. There are many opportunities. If Uncle Song is interested in engaging in the sugar industry, setting up a sugar factory there is also a good choice. .”

In the tropics, it is almost normal to develop the sugar industry. Not to mention that Song Chengjun gave him so much help, from the perspective of investment promotion, Borneo will also need investment from overseas Chinese in the future.

Moreover, in Li Yi'an's development plan, a very important link in the future is to attract overseas Chinese investment. Although the Japanese occupation caused heavy losses to wealthy overseas Chinese businessmen, and even many overseas Chinese families were wiped out, but a lean camel is bigger than a horse. If If they wanted to, they could invest billions of dollars in Borneo.

With these investments, the rapid industrialization of Borneo is no longer a fantasy. Of course, most of these investments must be in light industry or tropical plantations, but no matter what industry they are, they can absorb labor, resettle immigrants, and promote economic development.

Moreover, the overseas Chinese in this era have certain connections with each other. Whether it is Cuba or Nanyang, most of them are from Guangdong and Fujian. They have their own circles. They exchange news, support each other, and of course, compete with each other. , but after the propaganda from the late Qing Dynasty to the present, the national identity among overseas Chinese finally surpassed the region.

It is entirely possible for Song Chengjun and the other overseas Chinese in Cuba to start here and serve as an introduction to prepare for attracting large-scale investment from overseas Chinese in the future. Why should the money in the hands of overseas Chinese be wasted on construction in Southeast Asian countries?

The earth is only so big, and the cake is only so big. If others take one more bite, the Chinese will have to take one less bite. Let them be Filipino domestics! After all, when Borneo develops in the future, it will still need a large amount of cheap labor.

Filipino maids, Thai maids, and Burmese maids can still go to Borneo to be a nanny.

When Li Yi'an was envisioning introducing overseas Chinese capital to build Borneo, he heard Song Chengjun say.

"Oh, Nanyang..."

Suddenly, Song Chengjun said in shock.

"What, tens of thousands, tens of thousands of square kilometers? How is this possible? What place are you talking about?"

"North Borneo Company!"

Li Yi'an said.

"Ever heard of this place?"

"Why haven't you heard of it? My cousin is in North Borneo. Wait, Zhiyuan, tell me, you..."

Staring at Li Yian with his eyes wide open in shock, Song Chengjun said in an unbelievable tone.

"Did you buy the North Borneo Company?"

"Yes, that's right!"

Li Yian nodded.

"How about it, is Uncle Song interested in investing in North Borneo? If so..."

"If you are interested, how could you not be interested? North Borneo is a good place. Then, really, you really buy it."

Song Chengjun even had some doubts.

"How could the British sell it?"

"It was indeed sold. It's just different now."

After that, Li Yian took out a cigar from the cigar box on the table, lit the end of the cigar with a lighter, and took a puff. While savoring the aroma of the cigar, he looked at Song Chengjun and enjoyed it. Looking at him with shocked and envious eyes.

This feeling is awesome!
