Rise of the 1630s South America

Chapter 1175 Commercial ([-])

Wearing a blue Chinese tunic, Liang Xiangjian jumped off the train. The two Liang brothers who had received the telegram in advance had already rushed to the station to meet—well, there was also a "brother" Liang Zan with a black appearance, but look It seemed that the big black man was not very pleased with his two brothers.

"Oh, third brother, why are you still wearing this Taoist robe? I heard that you wore this robe all day when you were in Sakhalin Island, and you still wear it all day when you come back. Are you tired?" Liang Qiangdong glanced at third brother Liang Gang's attire, he said helplessly: "You don't still go to and from Taoist temples all day, do you? You haven't attended the cadre training school, have you?"

It is said that when Liang Xiangjian took office in Heishui, he brought all three children with him to educate him, but Liang Qiangdong, the youngest, stayed in his hometown to go to school.Now the three children who have traveled across the ocean have all returned, only to find that looking around in the capital, they are at a loss. The people they met when they were young have either gone their separate ways, or they have become unfamiliar with each other. Well, I still have to rely on my younger brother to take care of me!I heard that this youngest brother opened a company in Qingdao, with an annual turnover of tens of thousands of yuan. Apart from Liang Shoucheng, who will definitely inherit most of the family property, he is faintly second in the family.

The Liang Gang he said was the third child of the Liang family. His mother was a European slave girl. She was dull and honest by nature. When she was bored in Sakhalin Island, she actually believed in New Taoism and went around wearing Taoist robes all day long.Liang Xiangjian saw that this was not a problem, so he sent him back to the mainland, and by the way, he also asked his connections to enroll him in the capital cadre training school (mostly used by cadres who have become monks halfway to study gold-plated), so as to find him a job in the future. The rank of the body.

But now it seems that Liang Xiangjian's painstaking efforts are going to be in vain. The youngest of his family obviously has no ambitions here. Ye Zhenren, one of the great real people, praised him and called it the true seed of Taoism. I don't know if Liang Xiangjian, who is far away in Heishui, will turn green when he hears this.

Hearing Liang Qiangdong's question at this time, Liang Gang smiled and said nothing, as if all his interests were not here.

Liang Qiangdong was also very helpless about this, so he had no choice but to say to his eldest brother Liang Shoucheng: "Brother, you have to take care of the third brother's affairs, this is what the father told me."

"I can't control this matter." The tall and thin Liang Shoucheng waved his hands and said, "The third brother is really devoted to Taoism. A while ago, he even volunteered with Ye Zhenren to go to North America to preach in the Free State, saying that he wanted to be with him. Second brother as companion."

"This..." Liang Qiangdong was speechless when he heard the words.The origin of his second brother Liang Zan is even more "wonderful" because his mother was a black South African nanny. During Liang Xiangjian's wife's pregnancy, his brain seizures and the nanny cheated him to make him pregnant.And this black nanny doesn't seem to be stupid. She was deliberately caught by Wei Boqiu, who was in charge of the discipline police, in order to keep the child. The matter became so serious that Liang Xiangjian had to pinch his nose to recognize the illegitimate child, which caused constant turmoil at home. From then on, he felt resentment towards Wei Boqiu.

Liang Zan, a black man who "wears the second generation", was born in this way, and then grew up slowly.In all fairness, Liang Zan, a mixed-race black man, was not stupid, maybe he could even be called a bit smart, and he was physically strong, burly and brave, and he was decent at riding, shooting, and fighting.But he is a black skin after all, it is difficult to make friends in Dongfang Port, and his father is also quite disliked by him, so his personality is relatively taciturn, which further isolates him from the people around him.

Before returning to the mainland this time, Liang Xiangjian had a close relationship with Liang Zan, asking him if he would like to go to the North American Free State, and told him in detail the pros and cons of it: Liang Zan is black in appearance, so it is naturally convenient for him to communicate with the guys in the Free State , and he has learned a lot of knowledge and skills since he was a child, and his father Liang Xiangjian has managed him, so it is not a problem to go there to become a lord, a chief or something. This is much better than accepting the slightest discrimination in Dongfang Port .

Moreover, Liang Xiangjian also said that he still has a little face in front of Mr. Mo of the military department, so he can ask his foster sons South Africa Mo Dashan, Mo Dazhong and others (these are members of the free state royal family) to help select some capable bannermen or Warriors, weapons and equipment can also be selected first. In addition, he also promised a sum of money to ask his Dutch friends to help him hire some mercenaries, so that he can almost gain a firm foothold in the wild land of the Free State. How it can develop depends entirely on his personal fortune.After thinking for a long time, Liang Zan agreed to this opinion, and also planned to take his old mother—the black nanny—to Fengtian City, North America for the elderly, and then work hard there, which will not be too far away from the departure date up.

However, Liang Xiangjian's original arrangement in Heishui was a bit of an accident after all, that is, his other two sons, Liang Gang and Liang Qiangdong, also intend to visit North America.Among them, Liang Gang is purely for the purpose of spreading the teachings of Tianzun, and has no other thoughts; while Liang Qiangdong's thoughts are much more complicated. After all, he still considers it from the perspective of personal business-he has no raw material origin and logistics after eating. After the loss of the system, Liang Qiangdong now wants to control a piece of raw material production area that belongs to him more and more, and it happens that his two elder brothers are going to the Free State, so can he use the light to enclose the land there for development?Based on this idea, Liang Qiangdong doesn't dislike the black skin of the second brother anymore, and his power makes the eldest brother Liang Shoucheng frown again and again, feeling that his fourth brother is really a little bit inferior.

After the four brothers got together at the train station, Liang Qiangdong first ate and drank at a high-end restaurant for a while, and then returned home in a carriage.

"Brother, this time I plan to invest in the Free State and enclose an oak forest. I will often do this timber business in the future. Doesn't the country have a policy now, saying that it will increase the proportion of oak imported from North America to appropriately support the Free State and The local Indian tribe, the business between the mainland and the Free State may become popular in the future. It just so happens that the second brother and the third brother are going to the Free State this time. I think there will be two elder brothers there to take care of them in the future. This business will be a problem Not too old." Liang Qiangdong graciously brought coffee and snacks to the three elder brothers, especially Liang Zan, whom he always looked down upon, was even more attentive.

"Fourth brother, it is said that you want to do business, and I, the eldest brother, should support it." After a moment of silence, Liang Shoucheng, the eldest son, spoke first: "But you also know the situation at home (Liang Qiangdong is depressed, money is not all You, the eldest son, are in charge, I don’t know...), the various industries you invest in are miscellaneous, and there are many places to spend money. But you are my younger brother, blood is thicker than water, and as an older brother, I can’t say nothing, How about this, I will find a way to raise 3000 yuan, and I will lend it to your fourth brother for your company's turnover, and you will pay me back when you have more money, it doesn't matter."

Liang Qiangdong was a little depressed when he heard it, because the 3000 yuan was beyond his expectation, it was too little!He made his own calculations, the short-term working capital that can be squeezed out of the company's books is only 4000 yuan (fortunately, there is no bank loan to repay), and in the medium term, it will not be too much to raise more than [-] yuan if some road goods contracts are disposed of. If you want to work hard in North America with this amount of money, it is indeed a little tight. After all, you don’t know what will happen in the Free State, and you don’t know how much you will spend inexplicably in the local area. It’s hard to say. , It is always right to prepare more funds.

However, his elder brother said so, and Liang Qiangdong naturally knew that it was only 3000 yuan to talk about it, so he sighed silently and didn't say anything more-it's not bad to give himself 3000 yuan for nothing. Speaking of raising money, let's find a way with Bai Yutang and the others. They have a lot of spare money, so they might be interested in this matter.

"Fourth brother, I have no objection to you going to the Free State to do business." The youngest Liang Gang also said, "I have already talked with Ye Zhenren, and he supports my idea of ​​going there to preach, and he also said that he will select Some people with good teachings, medical skills, and technology will go with me. At that time, I need you to make it easier for our church. If you buy some goods, the price will be cheaper, so that I can persuade some comrades to play the drums for you. "

"Okay, no problem." Liang Qiangdong agreed, because this is a matter of mutual benefit.

"I'm fine. You give me weapons, ammunition and instructors, and I'll help you sweep away some unsightly people." The second child Liang Zan said after holding back for a long time.

"Oh, thank you so much, Second Brother." For the sake of money in the future, Liang Qiangdong called "Second Brother" very kindly, which made Liang Zan, who was used to indifference, get goosebumps.But going to Fengtian City in the future does require the fourth brother to help draw things in the mainland, otherwise how can we fight with others?Thinking of this, Liang Zan also settled down in his heart. Since he couldn't get enough of it at home, why not go to the Free State and have a look. His future achievements may not be worse than those of the many big courtyard boys in the capital.

The brothers chattered about goingssip again, then fell silent, and had nothing to say—this is how this family is, because the relationship between the brothers is the same because of the relationship between getting together less and leaving more, and many times it is not as close as money .So, after drinking coffee and eating snacks, the group scattered like birds and beasts. Liang Shoucheng went back to his home, Liang Gang went to the Chenghuang Temple to find someone, and Liang Zan planned to live in another courtyard in Henan Township outside the city for a few days (his wife lived Over there).

And Liang Qiangdong, since his wife hadn't come back after returning to her natal family to visit relatives, was thinking about whether to go to Bai Yutang and the others to have fun. I heard that there are some good things in that club recently, which made Liang Qiangdong feel a little itchy, but considering that this is In the capital, there are a lot of acquaintances. If someone bumps into him and spreads it to his father-in-law's ears, then he might be kidnapped to the execution ground and executed by shooting.Therefore, Liang Qiangdong resisted the urge to go to the brain with his sperm, and planned to find a beggar at night to see if he could get some more funds.
