Cosma Empire

The man let out a sigh of relief, and said with some frustration, "I'm sorry, I was reckless!"

Du Lin shook his head, "I'm very sorry to say it, I forgot your name, so I don't know how to call you."

"My name is Carter, sir!"

"Carter, although I rejected your request, you don't have to be discouraged at all, because there are things waiting for you that are more suitable for you." Dulin pointed to the sofa opposite him, and Carter sat on it carefully, "You Do you know about the fellow countrymen's association?"

Carter nodded, "Sir, I know, Abion and his accomplices advertised to us some time ago, saying that you..." He looked up at Du Lin, and Du Lin motioned him to continue, " He said that you are engaged in human trafficking business and open private mines, let us be careful not to contact you, so as not to be sold to other black mines as labor by you.”, he scratched his head in embarrassment, but in fact he believed it Abion's propaganda really thinks that Du Lin is a villain with a dark heart.

Du Lin knew about these rumors, but he still found it funny to hear them at this moment. Perhaps Abion's rumors were correct. He did "eat people", but only "eat" his enemies.

"The fellowship needs to be developed. I don't have enough manpower to do it now, and you are the most suitable person. The fellowship is a non-governmental organization with the Guart people at its core. Our purpose is not to be like other It is impossible for those extremist organizations to return to the country, and the Hometown Association is just an organization that cares and loves each other, and works hard for us to get better living conditions and welfare treatment."

"Do you know why those provincial people can always get better jobs than you? Because they are very united. When facing certain troubles, they can spontaneously unite together and let people know their unity and what they are facing. It is difficult. On the contrary, we Gualt people are too silent, even if we suffer from unequal treatment, we will not speak out, which is wrong."

"If you don't fight for it, why do others give it to you? Only when you fight for it, let the public and the empire hear your voice, and know your demands, will you consider whether to meet your conditions. The Guarts are too quiet It has been so long that people have forgotten that the kings who conquered this continent. The glory of our ancestors is in our hearts and in our hands. It is time to let it shine. Carter, my countrymen, this is an honor The mission is also a heavy burden, I want you to take on this responsibility, can you do it?"

Carter was a little excited, his lips were trembling slightly, he nodded his head vigorously, his hands clenched into fists, "I can, Mr. Dooling, I'm sure I can! In the incident that happened before, I realized that It’s all about what you said. When we are treated unfairly, no one can save us except ourselves. The provincials, Ogdins, and barbarians from the north, they only see our jokes!”

"I don't know if I can do this well,

But I will do my best to do this well! "

Du Lin stood up, took out the checkbook from his pocket and packed it again. He has a large denomination check book, but the largest denomination check book is only 1,000 yuan, and the check book that exceeds 1,000 yuan is not called a check book, but a "promissory note". There is still a big difference between a check and a cashier's check. The cashier's check is equivalent to the proof of cash, and can be exchanged for the cash indicated on the cashier's check at any bank. The check needs to have a verification process to prove that there is money in the account before the amount on the checkbook can be withdrawn.

In the Irian area, a check book of 1,000 yuan is already the maximum amount that can be applied for. Banks with more than 1,000 yuan will recommend customers to use cashier's checks, which is convenient and fast, and the loss to the bank is also minimal. Because the promissory note seldom directly acts on the early invoicing bank for cash withdrawal, it can be hedged by different banks on the settlement date to solve the problem of reduced savings in the bank. (In the early days of the United States, there were five-dollar and ten-dollar check books, and the smallest amount was said to be two dollars.)

He asked Ellis to get a promissory note of 10,000 yuan and taught Carter, "Go to the fifth district to find a piece of land and buy it, and the remaining money will be used for operations and your personal salary and other expenses. To recruit members, you only need Guarts. Tell them, if the fellow villagers will take even a penny from them, they will only give them money, and have equal and fair rights!"

Carter's hands trembled when he took the 10,000 yuan promissory note. He had never touched such a large amount of money in his life, but now that he has, he can feel the trust and value from Du Lin. He put the promissory note in his pocket, held Du Lin's left hand, and kissed the cat's eye ring on his index finger, "As you wish, sir!"

After sending Carter away, Durin contacted Garfield. After the friendly meeting last time, Garfield also happily agreed to meet with Durin. The agreed place was at the port.

Du Lin really wants to buy a ship, but the purpose of buying a ship is not as simple as simple logistics and transportation. He plans to expand the wine-making workshops immediately after taking Juan's liquor license, and transport these wines to various parts of the empire. place for sale. There is also his little idea in it, he will only sell the wine to the guarts, and those guarts must have more wines whether they want to protect their own interests or make more money. Bloody!

The profits of bootleg alcohol have skyrocketed under the second prohibition, and the retail price of bootleg alcohol in many areas has tripled. Faced with such an attractive market, even those honest Guarts will be red-hot Eyes fight with those who try to prevent them from getting rich. And Du Lin can also take advantage of this opportunity to form a nationwide network, and these people will become his disciples!

Think about it, when there are Du Lin people in every city, and these people also have courage and strength, what can Du Lin want to do?

Of course, the premise of all this is that he must have wine that can be supplied to the whole country, and a fast enough network to transport these wines to various places. He had thought about finding something else to do for his stupid compatriots, but after thinking about it, it seemed that only by letting them protect their own interests could they arouse their blood. This is not anyone's fault. If one person must be found to take the blame for the Guarts' silence over the years, it is God's fault.

Garfield didn't keep Durin waiting long. When Durin arrived, he arrived behind.

"Is there anything I need to say on the pier?" Garfield complained with a smile as soon as he got out of the car. He stepped forward and shook hands with Du Lin, "I have benefited a lot from what you said yesterday. I will think about it after I go back After a long time, I decided to go to the west to buy some mines and do it myself from the source to the terminal.”

After Dulin finished speaking, Garfield immediately realized that if the economy is really recovering rapidly as Dulin said, and the real industry is about to enter a period of rapid development, then the society's demand for steel will also increase dramatically! Because whether you're building a railroad or building a house or whatever, you can't do without steel and cement. He is not familiar with cement, but he is too familiar with steel.

He also realized that once the society's demand for steel increased, ore as a raw material would become in short supply, and even face a short-term shortage, so he decided to go to the west to buy some iron ore, even if he didn't make it himself in the future You can also make a lot of money by supplying goods. He never considered snatching the title of steel tycoon, he couldn't afford it, and he didn't have that much ability, he just wanted to use this opportunity to make some money.

Du Lin gave a positive response to Garfield's tentative inquiry, "Now is the best time to invest in mines. There are some iron mines in the west that are in the shutdown stage due to the current low steel price. Buying those mines is not an option. It will cost you too much money, but it can bring several times the profit, this is a good project!", he said that he put down his hands and talked about his own business, "I plan to buy some boats, they all said You are the most familiar with this, so I brought you here."

"What kind of ship do you want, cargo or people?" As soon as he mentioned what Garfield knew, he immediately became energetic. He provided most of the metal ingots used in Irian's shipyards, and he also knew people who could talk to them in the shipyard.

Du Lin pondered for a moment and said, "I want a freighter, the more cargo it can carry, the better."

Garfield smiled and shook his head: "Dulin, to be honest, I don't really recommend that you play with the ship. The cost of the ship is too high, the maintenance cost is too high, but the profit efficiency is too low. Let's talk about the latest one. The cost of a 20,000-ton freighter is as high as 1.2 million, and the construction time is as long as nine months. Except for those shipping tycoons who have retired from the navy, no one can play shipping."

He said earnestly: "Moreover, the situation at sea changes a lot, especially pirates. If you don't pay the comfort fee regularly, they will plunder your ship, kill your crew, and then sink your ship to the bottom of the sea!"

Hearing this, Du Lin couldn't help laughing, "So all the shipping tycoons in the empire are from the military?"

Garfield shrugged his shoulders, "This is a well-known thing in the industry. At the beginning, they caused some problems with some supply ships in service, and then bought these supply ships in a package, forming a huge scale. No one dares to compete with them. There is an unconfirmed gossip that the pirates on the outer sea are also controlled by these shipping tycoons and ship tycoons, and even belong to them.”

"Otherwise, think about it, why do they occupy this free world?"
