The journey starts from the Titanic

"I, I told my brother to shoot you! Haha! My brother is now the commander of the Million Army!" He Xiangu said with a proud face, looking very longing for Nanyang.

"How can there be millions? Don't listen to others' nonsense!" Situ Nan smiled and stretched out his hand to pinch He Xiangu's pretty face.

It’s very interesting to say that in the restaurants where they ate, in fact, all Chinatowns in the United States have been discussing the war between South China and the Dutch in the past few months. Some storytellers’ business has also improved a lot, and they can join in shaking their heads. A lot of material, said the war in Nanyang like the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

But those who don't have much knowledge love to listen and are fascinated by it.A few days ago, Situ Nan brought He Xiangu to eat here. After listening to it for a while, she remembered that in the storytelling, He Wenxiu was touted as the commander of a million army, and the martial arts surpassing the world was secretly remembered, making Situ Nan laugh.

After the victory of the Java naval battle, Nanhua became even more enthusiastic in Chinatown. In fact, a large number of Chinese children from the South China Army and the South China Government returned from Chinatown in the United States.

During this period of time, Nanhua was preparing to establish a country and signaled that those Chinese children wrote letters back to Chinatown or the country, asking their relatives and friends to move to Nanyang for development—dividing fields, investing, mining, working in the government, in short, a new country, New hope makes people yearn for.These days, many people in Chinatown in the United States bought a ferry ticket and rushed to Nanyang.

Especially some relatives of soldiers who participated in the war, their relatives moved from their homes, ready to go to Nanyang to become big landlords.

Situ Nan heard similar words from time to time while eating, which made him feel very satisfied.There is no doubt that the rise of South China is a great excitement for the Chinese in the United States and it has also improved their status.

After Situ Nan went to Southeast Asia, his first request was to distribute passports to overseas Chinese all over the world and become their asylum.Although the power is limited for the time being, at least it clearly shows its attitude.

Blindly asking, ungrateful, it was struck by thunder.

"Hey? Mr. Situ, why are you here?" As Situ Nan was drinking tea and carefully comprehending the teapot and cup, an unexpected voice rang in his ears.

"Miss Lu, it's you! Where does life never meet!" Situ Nan smiled and stood up and invited Lu Bihua to sit down.

"How is the view in the United States? Have you finished watching it? Are you interested in visiting Nanyang?" Situ Nan invited with a smile.

"Okay! That's what I meant!" Lu Bihua readily promised, wanting to see what the Nanyang Chinese nation is about to be established.

Chapter 116

This is a huge fleet, including an ocean liner carrying 2,000 passengers and 8,000 tons, five freighters with a carrying capacity of 15,000 tons, and a super luxury cruise ship. The wind and waves are mighty and mighty. Isn’t it strong?

They just set sail from Hawaii, preparing to take the South Pacific route, and finally arrived in Jakarta, a city full of hope.

The freighters that accompanied the William were loaded with 50,000 tons of wheat to supplement the food that South China urgently needed. At the same time, there were also a batch of construction machinery, including 1,000 tractors, bulldozers, cranes, locomotives, and so on.

Nanhua is busy building war-destroyed cities, repairing roads, and expanding ports. It urgently needs a lot of engineering equipment. After receiving the telegram from Nanhua, Situ Nan specially purchased this batch of equipment, which he gave to the newly born Nanhua. A gift.

Not only the equipment, but also a large number of engineering personnel, they are now sitting on the passenger ship, curiously discussing the novel and unfamiliar Nanhua.To their satisfaction, these American engineers and workers readily agreed to work in Nanyang for a few years when the American economy hadn't fully recovered.

On the magnificent William William, Situ Nanzheng discussed investment in Nanyang with the senior officials of the William Consortium.

Under his call, the heads or representatives of related companies such as Occidental Petroleum, Bethlehem Steel, Guben Energy, Cummins, and Giant embarked on this grand tour of South China.

"In the future, South China will become a major investment focus of the William Consortium. I have reached a consensus with the South China government. They welcome us to invest. This is a new country with a huge market that is opening up to us. Think about how this is. What a wonderful thing!"

Situ Nan smiled confidently.He has said a lot of similar things. The long journey has given enough time for this group of American business elites to discuss plans to invest in South China.

"It's really good news. I'm already optimistic about several oil fields in Java. With them, I believe Occidental Petroleum will increase its market share in Asia to 35% in 5 years."

Hengda?Brown stroked his beard and smiled.

Thinking of the abundant oil in the Indonesian archipelago, he was happy in his heart, so after receiving Situ Nan’s invitation, he agreed to go to the South Sea without saying a word.When passing through Hawaii, put the baby boy on the boat by the way.

But his son Mike?Brown heard about the beautiful scenery of Bali and the surfing of Sumatra.

"The gold mines and coal mines in the Indonesian archipelago are also our optimistic view. These labor costs are lower than those in the United States, and the market demand is so large, so Guben will not miss this good opportunity."

These are the words of the vice president of Guben Company.In addition to realizing Guben's investment in Nanyang, his bigger purpose is to inspect Guben Energy's industry in Australia....

Situ Nan looked at their discussion with a smile, and said to his heart: The William Consortium's early investment in South China mainly focused on heavy industries that were time-consuming, slow to produce results, and large in capital. In comparison, the return on investment in the United States is really not high.

However, as long as it can lay a certain industrial foundation for Nanhua within ten years, the money spent now will be earned back sooner or later.

There are salons on the ship almost every day. These big capitalists (or senior wage earners) seem to never finish talking about investment, just like women never get tired of discussing clothes.

Among these distinguished guests, there was a special one who was different from the gang of copper-smelling merchants around Situ Nan, and that was the great scientist Li Renqiao.

He was sitting on the sofa not far away, not knowing what he was thinking, absent-minded.

Situ Nan walked over and smiled: "Great scientist, are you here? Why don't you study your subject in the room?"

"Ah? What?" Li Renqiao raised his head, looking at Situ Nan in a daze.

"I said why did you come here today?" Situ Nan smiled and did it.

"The wine here is good." Li Renqiao said lightly. After taking a sip of the wine, his brows were slightly frowned, as if he was embarrassed by some problems.

Not to mention his achievements in the scientific community, Li Renqiao is an important figure in the Zhi Gong Party, and the eldest son of the Li family in Penang, I believe that in the future, he will also be a great figure in South China.

It stands to reason that you should be very happy to return home. Why are you absent-minded?

"What's the problem? Maybe I can help you out." Situ Nan said.

"Actually, it's not a big deal, mainly because the family urged me again. This time I have to get married, and I also specified a date, which is the founding day."

"Good thing! Congratulations."

"I haven't seen Miss Liu Jia for more than half a year, and haven't received a letter from her. Alas!" Li Renqiao sighed.

His face is a bit subtle, helpless, nervous, or expecting...

Situ Nan couldn't help having fun, knowing that this guy is usually too lazy to write letters, and thought: This crazy guy won't be busy doing research, will he lose his wife?

"How many bachelors in this world, they want to marry a wife and they want to be crazy, so don't be in the blessing. You are not young anymore, do it now. Haha!" Situ Nan teased and patted Li Renqiao. Shoulders.

The long journey made Situ Nan boring, and he looked forward to arriving in Jakarta as soon as possible.After the ship arrived in Sydney, the vice president of Guben Energy disembarked to investigate, and Situ Nan and the others rushed to Jakarta happily.

In order to realize the wish of celebrating the New Year in Jakarta, the South China Provisional Government did not wait for the conclusion of negotiations with the Dutch, and could not wait to move from Medan to Jakarta.

When Situ Nan arrived in Jakarta, it was already December 5, 1922.

The arrival of their huge fleet has caused a small sensation. The port has been warned. The murderous South China Army soldiers surrounded the pier tightly. All the senior officials of the South China Provisional Government stood at the pier and watched. The blue-and-white slender William sailed slowly into the dock, with a look of joy on his face.

Behind them, a row of luxury cars parked.In front of the pier stood a line of gorgeous guards of honor. The young men looked serious, staring at the blue and white cruise ship slowly descending, with some curiosity.

What big man is here?Let all the high-levels in the city come to greet him, is it a foreign head of state?

This thought came up in the minds of the citizens at the dock. They stood on tiptoes and looked around, but the guarded soldiers glared coldly and retracted.

Situ Nan stood by the boat, looking at Jakarta, whose excitement was suppressed, his heart surged.

Going to Nanyang, and going to Nanyang, at this moment, the Chinese finally stand on their heels, and don't need to be driven out wantonly.

For hundreds of years, the voyage to Nanyang has been a history of bitter blood and tears of the nation. Before, one could not make a step forward, and afterwards, there was no way out, and Nanyang became rootless duckweed, which could be slaughtered.

History has finally been changed by myself, even if it is only part of it.

Situ Nan sighed silently in his heart.
