The journey starts from the Titanic

"Ayong, you will stay in Los Angeles during this period of time and learn from Anan. Don't get into trouble." Situ Meideng said to an entourage beside him with a straight face.

"Uncle, I see." Situ Yong replied with bowed eyebrows.

Situ Meideng was gone, he nodded to Situ Nan, turned and got into a car.But he left a young man to facilitate communication between the two parties.

This person is called Situ Yong, one of Situ Meideng's entourage, and Situ Meideng's adopted son.

A bit stunned, a bit angry, a bit martial, but he is very straightforward, Situ Nan likes him very much.

Situ Nan stood at the door, looking at the car going away, his thoughts drifting far and wide.

Chapter 28

With emotion, life has to go on. Indulging in it for too long can make people decadent.

The ripples are rising, but is it still calm in the end?

After Situ Meideng left, Situ Nan's life gradually returned to the original rhythm, making money, making money, or making money...

Since all European capital withdrew from the United States, American capital not only got rid of the control of European capital, but also continued to serve the war. Not to mention the ports of New York and Boston in the east, but the current ports of Los Angeles and San Francisco on the western Pacific coast. There is an endless stream of ships going to Europe. Some may have been sent to the bottom of the sea by German submarines, but most of them have been sent to the front lines and then consumed all at once.

Profits are crazy, and adventurousness is never lacking for American businessmen. The profit from a trip to Europe is enough to buy several ships.

There are small shipping companies under Situ Nan that operate four 5,000-ton cargo ships, but they do not run European routes, but travel between Southeast Asia and the East Pacific.

These lines were originally operated by British shipping companies, but now the situation of the boss empire is a bit bad. This "empire that has been maintained by the ocean for thousands of years" has been pinched by the Germans, and a large number of merchant ships are sent by U-shaped submarines. Entering the cold bottom of the Atlantic Ocean, there is not enough capacity to operate the routes around the world, and we have to give up some routes to Japan in the Western Pacific and the United States on the other side of the Atlantic to ensure that we have enough capacity to travel from colonies around the world such as India and South Africa. , Canada, Australia searched for troops and supplies to fill the trenches, the front line composed of barbed wire.

Although Situ Nan did not devote himself to the revolution of a certain organization as Situ Meideng expected, but because of his business cooperation with North America Anliang Tang, he got in touch with Chinese businessmen in Southeast Asia. This time Situ Nan captured Europe. Merchants temporarily retreated and left empty opportunities in their colonies in Southeast Asia to transport American products to Southeast Asia for sale, and at the same time transport various materials from Southeast Asia, such as rubber and pepper.

The Chinese in Southeast Asia have been in business for a hundred years and have been acting as middlemen for the local indigenous and colonial people. With the hard work of the Chinese themselves, they have accumulated a little money.

The current war between the two major military camps of the Allied Powers headed by Britain, France and Russia and the Allied Powers headed by Germany and Austria has stimulated economic development outside Europe.

Some Chinese businessmen in Southeast Asia have begun to get involved in the manufacturing industry, although many of them are industries with low technological content, such as rubber processing, flour processing, tobacco processing, and tin mining. This undoubtedly gives Situ Nan a one. Good opportunity, because he can provide American machines to these Chinese factory owners.

Of course, they can also choose Japanese machines. During World War I, most of the machines imported from mainland China were Japanese machines. They were all light industrial machines such as textiles and flour processing. History books often wrote: "It was China from 1914 to 1920. The spring of national capital." In fact, this is the bright spring of Japanese manufacturing!

Through capital export, product export, and various barbarous plunders, the Japanese easily completed their industrial upgrades, perfected the light industry, and made huge profits that laid the foundation for the country's heavy industry.

But now Southeast Asia is a little far away from Japan, and this is the private land of the European powers, and the Japanese are not so long enough for a while.At the same time, the national sentiment of the Chinese would not have a good impression of Japan, so Situ Nan can provide a machine and technical support channel for them.

Quietly thinking about moving, Situ Nan wanted to visit Southeast Asia whenever he wanted. After all, there are abundant resources there. With his special status, there should be no problem with small achievements.

The Chinese-British mixed race lacks the skin of an American businessman. Sometimes, this hybrid identity can be regarded as unique to a certain extent.

Situ Nan started from oil, but he knew that a large part of the oil reserves of the United States were already in his own hands. Although many of them were buried in remote areas, although the United States had abundant resources, the total amount was so large. Situ Nan And his Occidental Petroleum Company can no longer compete with the oligarchs in the United States. Although now, because of the European War, everyone is making a fortune in harmony, but once the war is over?Five years later, ten years later?

If it is fighting the oligarchs in the United States, it is better to focus on other places. In addition to South America, Southeast Asia is also a good choice.

In other words, the United States is also a superpower. Although it has not yet exerted its strength, all countries know its potential. In addition to Britain and France, Southeast Asia, does not the influential Netherlands also have a place in the United States?The Philippines is a colony of the United States. Although the United States is a little sloppy in governance, this is what Situ Nan is happy to see.

Time is what Situ Nan needs most now. Although he is an "external visitor" and a gifted person, if he does not have a good environment, he will participate in the fierce competition prematurely, and he will die if he fails!

Although Situ Nan’s career has expanded greatly in the United States, it is still incomparable to the Eastern Rockefeller, Morgan, Mellon, DuPont and other consortia. First, the time is short, but those families have long achieved absolute status in important industries. Now, they got their position in the game circle early, and if they broke in halfway, they might be able to squeeze into their circle in 30 to 50 years.However, the non-self type will have different hearts. If you can't become one of them, you will always be rejected and suppressed by them.

It's not Situ Nan's ambition, but his experience is too bad, just in a period when human industrial civilization is booming, and this person happens to have capital and vision, it is not difficult to understand that he has built his own empire in thirty to fifty years. Up.

Sometimes Situ Nan wondered if his self-confidence was overwhelming?Is it that coming to this time and space to achieve unimaginable achievements in the original time and space makes people lost?

Return Morgan, Rockefeller!Don't be too yummy, too rich fantasies are not conducive to people's recognition of the true situation of things, leading to mistakes, you still have to be steadfast.

In any case, Situ Nan felt that his answer lies in Southeast Asia, a land that saddens countless Chinese people.

I don't know what Situ Meideng thought, but he left, but left the young man named A Yong.

When Situ Nan asked, he realized that A Yong was originally named Lin Yong, who was also a descendant of the Chinese American Railway Workers. Later, he was adopted by Situ Meideng and renamed Situ Yong.

The skill is good, but the person is straighter and a bit grumpy. Isn't that?A few days after Situ Meideng left, he got on the bar with Situ Nan’s guard, Han Gang. The two of them had a fight, but the result seemed to be irrelevant. This happened when Situ Nan saw Han Gang’s face. Only when I asked about the scar, he didn't care about these things.

"He doesn't cause trouble, just do what he wants!" Situ Nan said to Han Gang, and the son of Situ Mei Deng has something to do with him.

"Yeah. I know." Han Gang replied.However, he had a headache for this Situ Yong guy. Since the two had a fight, this kind of martial idiot asked himself to challenge him every three or five days. Well, his face was still a bit thick.In the end, Han Gang had to send this overly energetic guy to He Wenxiu's security company for training.

The dead dao friend does not die the poor dao!But thinking of He Wenxiu's cold, dead face, it is estimated that this thorn head Situ Yong was miserably tossed, right?

"Let's keep the notice, we will go to San Francisco tomorrow." Situ Nan played basketball on a whim and stopped playing, and said to Han Gang, who was conscientious next to him, that he and a few of his team members were carefully guarded by the side, even at home.

Situ Nan talked about him twice, but he still went his own way in this regard.Situ Nan was also very happy to have such a responsible guard captain.

This year, Situ Nan rarely traveled far away, almost staying in Los Angeles. He did not even inspect the industry in Texas. He usually contacted everything by telegram. His operations in the New York stock market were also directed by telegram. Operated by our professional team.

Of course, Hengda made Occidental Petroleum a good name. Robles made a lot of telegrams, saying that Houston is developing very fast and that all of its industries are developing very well.

This is also the reason why Situ Nan is so stable in Los Angeles.In fact, Situ Nan is generally aware of the financial situation of various companies, and it is not easy for someone to fool him.

...

In his previous life, Situ Nan was accustomed to the "days and evenings" air travel. After coming to this time and space for several years, he gradually became accustomed to the slow transportation of trains or ships in his previous life.

Situ Nan can be considered rich now, and he is naturally more stylish, so he has a luxury car on the train.Of course, this was not because of his masturbation, but in addition to him, he also brought a few bodyguards.

After Situ Yong was trained by He Wenxiu for more than a month, he became a lot darker and stronger. This time he went back to San Francisco with Situ Nan.

He went to the security company to train, and Situ Nan also knew that this was his tacit approval.Without his permission, it would be impossible for He Wenxiu to allow Situ Yong to conduct special training similar to that of special forces.In fact, only a small number of security companies can receive high-intensity training. Not only do they train secretly alone, but they also receive far higher treatment than general security team members.

Situ Nan heard Han Gang's words, even though Situ Yong's hand stretched out well, it was not bad for him to compete with his bare hands, but it was really not too difficult for Han Gang to kill Situ Yong.

Rifle shooting, cold weapon fighting, disguise, lurking, sneak attacks... At first, Situ Nan was also accidentally interested in accidentally. He told He Wenxiu about the special forces he knew in his previous life. Later, he recruited several masters with their own know-how. , Combined with the wisdom of everyone, started special training.

After Situ Nan started playing with some interest, because he was busy with other things, his enthusiasm was almost consumed, and then he rarely participated.But He Wenxiu fell in love with this job, and changed his way to fix those strong men.

There is no three or three, I dare not go to Liangshan.He Wenxiu has fought against white cowboys in the western United States for many years, and it can be considered a battle. If he hadn't followed Situ Nan after meeting Situ Nan, He Wenxiu would still go to war with white cowboys everywhere!

In 1913, when Situ Nan took He Wenxiu and a few secretly to buy land everywhere in Texas, he met many gangsters. Fortunately, He Wenxiu was able to take care of them.One night, Situ Nan was awakened by urine. When he got up, he found He Wenxiu coming back with a bloody smell.

When he finished the task and left the next day, Situ Nan heard that a dozen villains who helped open the casino were killed overnight!That gang just humiliated Situ Nan's gang before, because Situ Nan's gang was Chinese!

This was tasting by Situ Nan and He Wenxiu, and no one said it broke. Although Situ Nan didn't know how He Wenxiu did it, he didn't care, he only knew that he could trust this person.

In addition to returning to Situ Nan's manor, He Wenxiu usually works in the training base of a security company. He doesn't like to manage business. Otherwise, what kind of position is there based on his relationship with Situ Nan?Many of Situ Nan's properties are reserved for He Wenxiu's shares, but this guy doesn't care about it at all. In his words, it is also good to help Situ Nan train a group of minions.

"Brother Nan, you are so corrupt!" Situ Yong looked at the luxurious decorations of the car, "It is too expensive for this person to make such a big and expensive car. The money can buy a lot of money to equip us. Comrade revolutionary."

This guy is really familiar, and he is seldom polite in Situ Nan's house, fashionablely speaking, he doesn't treat himself as an outsider.He is one year younger than Situ Nan and only 20 years old. Situ Nan was only 17 years old when he traveled to the Titanic as a crew member. It has been more than four years since he came to this world in a blink of an eye. Although he is only 21 years old, he developed early. After experiencing so many things, a man has matured a little bit vicissitudes of life, and this is also where others are surprised at his young and old age.

Everyone has his own choice. In Situ Nan's eyes, Situ Yong is just a young and energetic and passionate young man. Everyone has been young. Although young people full of ideals sometimes do some impatience, this is beyond reproach.Besides, this is a youth who loves revolution.

"The money I earn is spent upright, what's extravagance!" Situ Nan smiled and took a sip of coffee and said: "You care about this little money and just stay and work for me. The salary is enough every month. You bought a gun. Even if you have a salary plus bonus in a year, you will also buy a dozen or twenty guns. Isn't this a contribution to your revolution? How about? Think about it?" Situ Nan quipped.
