Rise of the Argentine Empire

Wednesday, sunny, not a cloud in the sky.

Waking up early, Saint Hesser simply washed his face and immediately felt refreshed.

It was already seven o'clock in the morning. After finishing breakfast, he drove non-stop to the paper mill.

The cardboard tubes had been arranged yesterday. Saint Hesser was a little worried and had to complete most of the processes, then dry the fireworks for the fireworks display the day after tomorrow.

He arrived at a small workshop next to the paper mill, the only place that could make straight cardboard tubes.

"Boss, time is too tight, you have to add money. I must finish it in the morning!"

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and get it done, I'll double the price!"

"Two times is not enough, it has to be three times."

"You don't know what's good for you, do you? If you keep talking nonsense, you won't get a penny," Saint Hesser took out a gun from his pocket, then took out a stack of banknotes and put it on the table.

"Yes, yes, yes, Big Brother, don't be angry, I'll get it done right away, I guarantee it will be done beautifully."

"That's more like it." Saint Hesser walked away satisfied.

The chubby boss of the paper mill wiped his sweat. He originally wanted to make a fortune, but he met a tough guy. Saint Hesser's hair was messy.

After thinking carefully, wasn't this the guest of honor of Mayor Kavo? He was trying to extort money from the wrong person. When he came later, he had to apologize.

The chubby boss had a look of regret on his face. It was really a case of mistaken identity, his mind was clouded by greed.

"What are you looking at? Hurry up and work, do you want to eat a bullet too?!" the chubby boss roared.

This fireworks display was also the debut of the gunpowder factory's transformation. Saint Hesser planned to invite some distributors from Science City, workers from Maria City, and people from the town to watch the big fireworks.

Saint Hesser also asked people to invite Ilena and Little Thompson, but he didn't know if they would come.

The whole morning was spent arranging for people from the neighboring town to prepare an open-air banquet. Fireworks were essential.

Saint Hesser ran back and forth, first taking some samples of the paper tubes to Sean and asking him to debug them.

Saint Hesser also felt that he was a bit annoying, so he quickly left.

"Everyone, today is triple pay, thank you for your hard work. After the production is completed, I will arrange for everyone to have a good meal."

"Okay, boss,"

The factory workers responded without raising their heads, and continued to bury themselves in production, preparing raw materials, mixing, and stirring.

"Is this boss an idiot?"

"It feels like..."

"I heard everything... Humph, hum," Saint Hesser replied loudly.

"Hahaha..."

Saint Hesser realized that he was indeed a bit anxious, so he went to the training ground and gathered the people who were training.

"Everyone, work hard tonight, and follow the arrangements at that time..."

"Boss, is there some action?"

"Head, is there a big move?" * 2

"No, I just want to see the fireworks... , ... ... ..."

"Then just make it a big party,"

Saint Hesser had already called the people at the factory and told them to take a holiday tomorrow, chartered a dozen buses, and sent the people from the clothing factory and the Plari factory to Maria Town, and picked up Chen Lao Bo and the others along the way.

Tomorrow is Thursday, and General Little Thompson has also been contacted.

"Commander, I will hold a large fireworks banquet in Maria Town tomorrow, please be sure to come."

"Saint Hesser, that's great. I have nothing to do tomorrow, I will definitely come then."

"Okay, Commander."

"Hello, is this Li Qingyun? I am Saint Hesser Cohen. The Plari factory will be closed the day after tomorrow. After you get off work, call Chen Lao Bo and them to come to Maria Town to attend the banquet..."

"Okay, boss..."

"Hello, is this Little Nix? I, Saint Hesser Cohen, please arrange a holiday tomorrow and come to Maria Town to attend the banquet. You can bring anyone who is free, and I will reimburse you for the travel expenses."

"Big sister, I'm Saint Hesser, please arrange the work of the clothing factory, the factory will be closed the day after tomorrow..."

"Hello, Chief of Staff, I'm Saint Hesser..."

"Hello, Finn..."

"Hello,..."

"Hello,..."

Saint Hesser invited all the acquaintances he could call. Now there is nothing major in the town. Friday is just a holiday in Argentina, and Thursday can be a day off. Saint Hesser arranged for all the people in the factory to take a holiday and arranged for them to go to Maria Town.

Fortunately, there are many empty houses in Maria Town, and Mayor Kovo organized cleaning, so there was no big problem.

Mayor Kovo was also shocked by Saint Hesser's sudden attack, but he immediately realized that this was a good opportunity to show the style of Maria Town, and immediately went to the town council to start a mobilization meeting, and then the whole town broadcast, and the whole town took action.

... ...

At noon, Saint Hesser came to Fatty's packaging factory and saw two thousand cylindrical piers of gunpowder, which had been made.

"That's great, very on the ball."

"Brother Cohen, I'm really sorry, I was wrong before. This time, I'll apologize to you..."

"Okay, don't be polite. You can make it so quickly, it's really good. Three times the price, you can count it. I'll continue to cooperate with you next time, and watch the fireworks together tomorrow."

Saint Hesser brought people from the gunpowder factory to check these paper tubes for fireworks one by one. They were of good quality, both large and small, and cost a lot of money.

This little fatty is quite on the ball.

In addition to the paper tubes, Saint Hesser also arranged for the mold factory to produce plastic fireworks bases like mortars.

There is a pity that the super fireworks cannon that can fly four hundred meters high is that Sean's aesthetics seem to be average, and he can only make some ordinary fireworks for the time being.

Saint Hesser spent a lot of effort to make Sean understand these things, such as some special fireworks.

The structure of fireworks and firecrackers is similar, using ordinary black gunpowder, not the main raw material yellow gunpowder of the current gunpowder factory.

Fortunately, the factory stocked a large amount of raw materials. After some debugging and matching, the production and trial release of fireworks were completed that night.

Sean is indeed a master of playing with gunpowder. He kept experimenting with the ratio and has made five or six simple types of Saint Hesser.

"Boss, these are spray flowers, rotating, rotating lift-off, rockets, and bead spitting."

"Sean, you have done a great job! Double the salary next month, let's release it immediately and see."

"Boss, it doesn't seem very clear during the day."

"It's okay, I'll just take a look. If it's okay, arrange production immediately."

"Boss, then I'll arrange the ignition."

Sean seemed to be in a good mood, his face was much better, he shaved his beard clean, and lit the fire with a lighter.

With a 'whoosh' sound, fireworks shot into the sky, exploding with a 'boom,' revealing fleeting colors and hues.

The ground-based samples were all successfully ignited, including a large one, which was a perfect success.

"Really impressive, Sean. Well done."

"Arrange mass production immediately, and preferably create several different styles."

"No problem, boss. This is nothing…" Sean said with a serious face, 'Boss, you underestimate me…'

"Good, that's good. Safety first, always prioritize safety…"

"Absolutely, rest assured. I guarantee the mission will be completed…"

"Okay… carry on…"

…

The next morning, fireworks produced by the Maria Pyrotechnics Factory, after a night of cooling, packaging, and storage, were quietly transported to the Maria town warehouse in a convoy of ten trucks.

Many people had already begun arriving in town, and business was booming. The construction of the Maria Plastics Factory and Chemical Plant had already attracted many locals to open restaurants and the like, and now there were already many hotels, restaurants, and other basic facilities.

The streets were also swept clean, and Mayor Cavo arranged for some empty houses to be used.

Maria Town was gradually becoming lively, with temporary parking lots and Maria Train Station signs guiding visitors through the town.

Most of the factories in Maria Town had stopped work today, and everyone was spontaneously busy. The scale of Maria Town was decent, and the fireworks display location was arranged in a huge open space outside the town.

The Maria Town Fireworks Festival, the news had spread to Ke City and nearby towns, and some people were already planning to visit.

Busy until the afternoon, Little Nicks, Lucifer, Cross, Aragon, Guerrero, Sean, Li Qingyun, Mayor Cavo, and others also organized activities, while Saint Hesser didn't help much.

"Boss, please stop trying to help and making things worse. Why don't you go greet the guests…" Saint Hesser had just planned to chop ribs when he chipped the cleaver several times.

"Alright, I'm really not very good at this…" Saint Hesser was also a little embarrassed. Who knew why these steaks were so hard…

Li Qingyun sharpened the knife cleanly and chopped the ribs easily…

"Boss, go look around elsewhere…"

"Boss, this isn't something you should be doing…"

"Old brother Cohen, why don't you go help me watch the kids?…"

It was a day when Saint Hesser was disliked.

However, Saint Hesser quickly changed into clean clothes and took on the job of welcoming guests.

Little Thompson even brought Saint Hesser's Ninth Brigade with him specifically to maintain order.

"Commander, thank you for your trouble here…"

"Cohen, well done. It's really taking shape," Little Thompson said, looking at Maria Town after getting out of the car. The construction was decent.

"Commander, you're too kind. This is Mayor Cavo."

"It's Little Brother Cavo!"

"Boss!"

The two middle-aged men embraced each other tightly, not separating for a long time.

"Hey, we were classmates at military academy. We've known each other since we were kids…"

So that's how it was. No wonder Mayor Cavo took care of Saint Hesser in addition to basic matters. Saint Hesser imagined a grand drama.

"Hehe, it's not what you think. Cavo and I haven't seen each other in half a year," Little Thompson seemed to see through Saint Hesser's imagination.

"Yeah, plastic brotherhood, hehe."

Then, after some pleasantries, Saint Hesser went to welcome other people.

From morning until afternoon, he didn't see Mary King arrive. Saint Hesser was a little disappointed, but it didn't matter.

…

The people from the Viper Squad, along with ten large trucks of fireworks, were arranged to set off the fireworks. Under the organization of Guerrero and Sean, they were responsible for the logistics of the entire fireworks festival.

In the evening, the banquet began.

Saint Hesser also entertained the guests who came. The mayor gave the opening speech, and then it was free banquet time.

The soldiers of the Ninth Brigade were responsible for security, while others gathered at the banquet. To prevent fragments from the fireworks from falling, the food for the banquet was arranged in some open-air tents, and the attendees waited outside for the fireworks festival to begin.

In the town, a Spanish wild-style band performed, and the entire town fell into an ocean of revelry. Performances, dances, and people poured into the streets, singing songs with their friends, whistling, and playing drums, like a Spanish carnival.

Sean was in charge of the fireworks display. From six o'clock, he hadn't stopped. Huge fireworks bloomed in the sky. Saint Hesser declined the dance invitations of several enthusiastic beauties, and just quietly watched the fireworks.

The colorful fireworks spewed out from the base, vying to bloom in the clear night sky. Sean led the fireworks team, constantly igniting, moving, and igniting.

Outside the town, the viewing platform was packed with people. The fireworks continued to bloom. With a "bang," fireworks flew into the sky, and the colorful lights illuminated the entire night sky.

Seeing a huge fireworks show in person can only be described as spectacular. When a segment of fireworks ended, the people of the town spontaneously began to applaud. It was truly an excellent fireworks festival, so beautiful.

Just when he was feeling somewhat disappointed, Saint Hesser heard a voice.

"Mr. Saint Hesser, the fireworks here are so beautiful," Ilena said softly, standing behind Saint Hesser at some point.

"I thought you weren't coming."

"Of course I'm coming… it's just that the train was delayed." That damned Argentine railway system.

"It was inconsiderate of me. I'm sorry."

From the afternoon until eight o'clock in the evening, the fireworks illuminated the entire night sky. Even a hundred or two hundred miles away, you could see sparks of fire. Those who didn't know would have thought a place had been bombarded.

The fireworks rose and fell, constantly blooming. The highest giant fireworks could rise more than 200 meters, like huge artillery fire, shocking many people. Saint Hesser thought that a hundred meters was about the maximum, but they were much higher than the test firing yesterday. He didn't expect Sean to be so capable. He had really found a treasure.

Not only was the height of the fireworks much higher, but the patterns of the fireworks were also much more numerous, varied, and outrageously many.

"Cohen, the fireworks you set off are so beautiful…"

"Well, actually, I didn't set them off. Okay, I did organize them," it seemed he really was the one who organized it.

Originally, he just wanted to test the fireworks and conduct investment promotion work, but somehow more and more people got involved, so he simply turned it into a carnival fireworks banquet.

Ilena next to him suddenly kissed Saint Hesser on the cheek, and then the two held hands and watched the fireworks together under the fireworks festival.

Saint Hesser suddenly wanted this moment to last forever. Born in this country, in this era, he was deeply honored, and he wished the motherland prosperity and peace!

Thank you to all the people who have worked hard for this new country for a hundred years. With deepest respect.

This magnificent fireworks display is as you wished.
