The journey starts from the Titanic

The journey begins with the Titanic Chapter 203

After winning the chance, He Wenxiu who tasted the sweetness began to turn his attention to the regular army.Of course, the direction of the spearhead cannot be the United States. Even if the American militia is rubbish, He Wenxiu dare not act rashly.

So the Mexicans became the target of their vent. After they made the offensive not to the guerrillas, the cunning inner guards began to disguise the guerrillas to attack the Mexican government forces and lure them out, and then these "cowardly guerrillas" I am ignorant of ambushing on the preset battlefield, and a Mexican army that got in, beat them to the ground and quickly escaped.

There are brilliant results and painful losses, but in any case, it is a price that must be paid.

In addition to the inner guards, there is also a pair of secret guards with a small number of them. They are only 10 in number and never show anyone. Except for Situ Nan and He Wenxiu who trained them first, no one in this world knows that such a person exists.

The dark guard is Situ Nan's last force. When it is not a last resort, he will not use it easily. In his heart, he hopes that he will never use the dark guard.Just like its name, they will always live in the dark, if they are not activated, they will never wake up.

"Look at you, have you eaten it?" Situ Nan said to the downcast Han Gan with a smile.

The guard brought by Situ Nan had a contest with the elite team of inner guards. As a result, in the jungle, these guys who were usually angry were brought down by the same number of elite inner guards in less than half an hour.

"What a good guy to hurt people with a dark arrow! There is a kind of one-on-one!" Han Gan said dissatisfied, with black eyes, like a cute panda.

"Oh, dissatisfied! One-on-one, it's not easy to clean up your stupid big guy! Don't think that you are next to the young master and think you are awesome."

A man who was obviously smaller than Han Gan said disdainfully, he was shining and looked at Han Gan a little provocatively.In terms of kung fu, he thought he was not inferior to Han Gan's stupidity, but when he chose Situ Nan's guard, he was unsuccessful.

"Okay, Chengdong! Don't say it. You just performed well. It seems that you haven't been lazy in the past two years, and you have learned a lot from Instructor He." Situ Nan smiled.

The full name of the young man called Zhang Chengdong was Zhang Chengdong, and he was the first security guard recruited by Situ Nan. He had good skills, agile brains, and he was fierce, and his personality was more wolf-like.

Hearing Situ Nan's words like this, Zhang Chengdong gave Han Gan a triumphant look, smiled and walked back.

Since entering the security company, they have become enemies with Han Gan, who is equally strong, and they refuse to accept each other.When Situ Nan selected the guards, he chose Han Gan as the captain, but Zhang Chengdong was not selected, which made Zhang Chengdong very unconvinced. He didn't dare to blame Situ Nan, so he could only spread his grievances on Han Gan.

So every time the two meet, they have to fight.Situ Nan and He Wenxiu seldom interfere with these two guys.

"Shengdong, they are training hard almost every day, and they also fight with Mexico, and their blood is not scarce. They are experienced and cooperate with each other. In the jungle, almost no one is their opponent. It is normal for you to lose. "

Situ Nan looked at Han Gan's downcast look, Situ Nan couldn't help but comforted.

"Oh! Then I'll go back and practice kungfu well, and I will teach him next time." Han Gan said grimly, and his dissatisfaction made Situ Nan shook his head. Just now, I said it for nothing. This tall fellow probably thinks of himself. The words are buzzing.

In fact, the reason why Situ Nan chose Han Gan at the beginning was that, in addition to appearance, Han Gan was a "hybrid" like Situ Nan, and looked pleasing to the eye. He was taller than Zhang Chengdong, and he was best used to block bullets!Well, this can only be thought in my heart, but I can't say it.

His own guards are not in the management of the inner guards. Situ Nan has nothing to curse. First, the battlefield choice is beneficial to Zhang Chengdong and the others. Second, the division of labor between the killer and the guards is different. Even if the better Zhang Chengdong replaces Han Gan, he It is not necessarily better.

"That kid Chengdong is really interesting, I didn't expect you to be trained!" Situ Nan smiled.After Han Gan and Zhang Chengdong went out, only Situ Nan and He Wenxiu were left in the room.Because they have some secrets that they can't tell others to discuss.

"That kid is really good, cruel enough, to my liking." He Wenxiu smiled triumphantly.He has always been very proud of the soldiers he brought out.

"Are you sure you want to leave?" Situ Nan asked again.

"Isn't this your plan?" He Wenxiu said indifferently, "I have often thought over the past year, maybe you are right. To win the respect of others, first you must be self-reliant.

You also know that whether it is North America or South America, the Chinese are after all an outsider. Even if you are now a rich country, you still have not fundamentally changed the discrimination against us by white people. There is no independent country behind it. The status will not be fundamentally improved."

"That's true. Although the U.S. government needs our Chinese workers to build cities for them, it turns a blind eye to Chinese smuggling immigrants, but after the war, the economy became depressed and a large number of white soldiers retired. They find that they are out of work, and I think the anti-Chinese storytelling may repeat itself. For this, I have to think more about it."

Situ Nan frowned and said.

He knew in his heart that the achievements of the William Consortium were based on the United States, so even if it had more money, it would not be possible to confront the mainstream of this country, and could only try to detour.

He has thought countless times that if the damn "Chinese Exclusion Act" is not established in the form of national laws, everything will have a lot of room for maneuver, but this is a country that pays attention to laws.And it seems that I came too late. Before I put it on, this provisional bill was passed permanently in 1902.

It's really hard!Although Situ Nan can bend that he can ignore this bill with his power and go his own way, but this is impossible, so he must consider making big efforts and plan for the worst.

Just like Yuan Shikai said, pull up a big tree, and before you have the power of the king of Chu, you'd better shake it little by little to loosen the roots of the big tree and shorten it. , And finally uprooted the big tree again.

Situ Nan hopes to start from Los Angeles and strive for the local government’s acquiescence to Chinese immigrants, and then seek loopholes in the law or issue special laws to achieve breakthroughs in one state and one place. Finally, the most important thing is to establish a system that can help overseas Chinese. The backing country will then use the power of the country and its influence in the United States to destroy the shame imposed on the Chinese people.

It is easy to say, but it is extremely difficult to do, but Situ Nan will not give up in any case, he will continue to follow the established goal, even if his family is ruined.

The reason why he insists on increasing investment in Latin America is that if things happen in the United States, some parts of Latin America will be the place for some Chinese to hide.

"You know? Anan, before you came back, I had secretly returned to the mainland once. I have been to Guangzhou, Shanghai, and Beijing, but the sights I saw in those big cities made me feel chaotic, absurd and powerless. Feeling, I went a little deeper into the countryside, and felt really sad and powerless when I came out.

I finally realized some of what you said before.It’s too big, and our abilities are too small. Maybe it really needs a phoenix squeeze to rebirth?"

He Wenxiu said with emotion.

Situ Nan didn't expect that this guy could say these things, and he didn't expect that he once ran back to the place he missed secretly. He was very surprised and didn't know what to say.

For a long time, Situ Nan said: "Then why did you choose Nanyang? I said, if you want to go back to be independent, I will support you. Although it is impossible to change all the places, first occupy a small area. It’s okay to lay a solid foundation and map other things? You know, I'm still a little sure about this."

Situ Nan looked at He Wenxiu hopefully. Although he didn't think that the other party could really achieve grand hegemony, he was content to be an enlightened warlord and to protect the land and water.

If He Wenxiu chooses to return to the mainland, Situ Nan intends to support other people or implement his Nanyang plan himself.This is not a contradiction.

After He Wenxiu gave Situ Nan a meaningful look, she shook her head and said, "Forget it, let's talk about those things in the future! I'll go to Nanyang! Even if it doesn't happen, I have no regrets."

Situ Nan nodded.This is the last time he has discussed this matter with He Wenxiu. Once the direction is set, once they embark on this vast waterway, it will be impossible to return before they reach their destination.

What Situ Nan didn't know was that He Wenxiu had been shaken just now, but he felt regret every time he thought of Nanyang when Situ Nan mentioned it.

Chapter 180 Meihua Trading Company

If the security consulting company is Situ Nan’s knife, then Meihua Trading Company is one of Situ Nan’s pocketbooks. It may not contain the most money, but it is most closely related to Situ Nan’s wish. Heart.

After returning from the training base of the security company, Situ Nan hurriedly summoned Zeng Liming, the president of Meihua Trading Company.

"Establishing a name, how is Meihua's affairs going now? Tell me about it." Situ Nan said happily.

Sitting across from him was a man in his early thirties, of medium build and ordinary appearance, but he was very clean and tidy, and he knew he was a serious guy at first glance.Especially the focused eyes, let Situ Nan rest assured to hand over the Meihua Trading Company to him.

"The company is developing very fast, especially our business with mainland China is very hot, and the trade volume has been continuously rising. In the first half of this year, we exported a total of more than 5 million US dollars worth of goods to mainland China, the largest of which was Light industry machinery and equipment such as textiles and grain processing accounted for one third of the total.

Except for Mobil Oil Company, it is our Meihua Trading Company that has done the largest business in mainland China.By the way, our partner Shanghai Song's company has done a good job. They are now among the famous compradors in Shanghai."

Zeng Liming said triumphantly. He took a playful look at Situ Nan and found that the other party had no expression. He went on to say, “Now China’s light industry is developing very rapidly, and their demand for this type of machinery and equipment is very strong. Shanghai has new ones almost every day. With the emergence of factories, in addition to American machines, almost all Chinese factory owners choose Japanese machines.

The Japanese are our biggest competitor in the Far East. Although their technology is not as advanced as ours, with low cost and fierce competition with us, we have almost no advantage in the area north of the Yangtze River.In addition to machines, the other items are hardware or sewing machines, razors, lighters and other small items, which are also popular.The commodities we import from China are mainly traditional trade products such as ceramics and silks, as well as bristles. We buy bristles from China and ship them back to the United States, and then sell them to local companies.

In addition, we hire a large number of workers from mainland China and pay a monthly settlement allowance, which is a relatively large expenditure for the company.At the same time, the investment in the early stage of the Nanyang Land Reclamation Plan is huge, and most of our profits are invested in it, so there will not be much leftovers on the book."

Having said this, Zeng Liming glanced at Situ Nan somewhat secretly.In the past few years, although Meihua Trading Company has made a lot of money, for the boss of Situ Nan, there is no return. Instead, he has invested continuously, otherwise some plans cannot be carried out.

"Yeah. Good job. I gave you the Meihua Trading Company, and it was true. To me, Meihua is not only a company, but more things that cannot be bought with money, so making money is not mine. The main purpose, as long as our dream can be realized."

Situ Nan said earnestly, "Do you have any good suggestions? Or do you have any new plans recently?"

"Yes. The production cost of my factory in China is relatively low, and the workers are also easy to manage. I think if possible, I would like to build some factories in coastal cities such as Shanghai and Guangzhou, such as match factories, food factories, etc. , It can also train our workers." Zeng Liming said.

"Hmm. What else?" Situ Nan nodded and asked.

Setting up factories in China, using local cheap resources and labor, is the management of foreign capital entering China, and there is nothing new.
