Seeing everyone staring at him, Fang Xiaoyu announced: "I have bought the entire Wild Continent. From now on, we will use the development of the counties in the East China Sea as a cover to focus on the Wild Continent." Everyone here except those who got it before traveling to East China.
In addition to knowing the news through Fang Xiaoyu's handwritten letter, everyone took a deep breath.
The Wild Continent, how big a place it is, even bigger than the Lanfang Empire. After listening to Fang Xiaoyu’s words, Tobol was a little worried and said: "Master, I heard that the natural conditions of the Wild Continent are harsh, sparsely populated, and the sea routes are impassable.
, the development value is not great." Tobol, who has served as a marshal of a country, also has some experience in land development.
Fang Xiaoyu said: "It's okay. It's true that the sea route is not easy to travel, but when we develop and become stronger, we can use explosives to carry out underwater blasting and clear out the waterway. Moreover, the climate there is not harsh, on the contrary, the products are very rich. The population is small
Some, but we can immigrate from the mainland, as long as we use overseas trade as an excuse and believe that we will not attract the attention of others. Not to mention..."
Fang Xiaoyu looked at the Browning Giant Hammer standing aside and said, "I unexpectedly met a dwarf tribe in the Wild Continent. They are called Barren Hills Dwarves, and their leader is Beretta Giant Hammer." After hearing what Fang Xiaoyu said, Browning Giant Hammer
Hammer immediately jumped up and said angrily: "There is a race of dwarves? How many people are there?" Fang Xiaoyu said: "There are about hundreds of thousands of people, but because they are not good at agriculture, their living conditions are relatively difficult."
It was also the first time that Huadongxing heard about this matter. He nodded and said: "This favorable condition can be used. With the help of these dwarves who are familiar with the terrain, we can speed up the plan to develop the wild continent." Fang Xiaoyu nodded.
He said: "Yes, but we must develop the counties in the East China Sea and establish a shipping company. Only when we have our own shipping company can we keep it secret." Hua Dongxing said with a smile: "Wait until I report to the young master about the past two years.
With the results, the young master will no longer have such worries." Fang Xiaoyu glanced at the confident Huadongxing, said nothing more, and just nodded.
Fang Xiaoyu came back today, and there were a few more guests from the Western Continent. Sun Chuanzong asked the chefs to prepare a sumptuous banquet. Various specialty dishes were served one after another. Huo Lan and others' eyes were straightened for a while, and they looked at it slightly.
After tasting it, they praised the deliciousness of the food, which was even better than what they had eaten on the ship. Then these people began to devour the food. They were eating so fast that Sun Huaizong on the side was stunned. He had to let the kitchen
Prepare some more dishes.
The room was extremely quiet during the meal. Huo Lan and the others didn't have time to talk at all. They just focused on destroying the delicious food in front of them. They were focused on eating, and it was naturally not easy for others to chat. They could only laugh at a few useless newcomers.
The guests were eating food by themselves. Others were not surprised by the performance of Huo Lan and others, because they were in the same situation after eating the delicacies developed by Fang Xiaoyu for the first time.
The guests and hosts had a great meal. Many days of hard work made everyone very tired. After the meal, Huo Lan and others went to their new residence to rest. Fang Xiaoyu also returned to his room, but he did not go back for a long time. East China
Xing came to the door with a few big books.
Seeing Hua Dongxing struggling to enter the house with a thick stack of notebooks, Fang Xiaoyu quickly stepped forward to help and said, "Mr. Hua, why did you bring so many things here?" Hua Dongxing put all the books on the table and said with a smile, "Master, this is
They are all the industry directories and account books we have developed in the past two years. How can we explain them in detail without bringing them over?" Fang Xiaoyu looked directly at the thick pile and said in surprise: "Have we actually developed so many industries?
?" Hua Dongxing said with a smile: "This is all the result of the young master."
Fang Xiaoyu smiled and shook his head: "I have been running around here and there in the past two years, not directing the development of the empire. All the credit belongs to Mr. Hua." Hua Dongxing said: "Young master, there is no need to be modest. It is not for you to leave Lanting Villa.
How can we have money to develop industries and so many best-selling products? If it weren't for you and Marshal Xiahou to cooperate, how would we have so many opportunities to expand in the counties of the East China Sea. And after you left, the eldest master of the Fang family has decided to hand over Lanting Bank to us, and
They also gave us 20 million from the profit this time. This is also due to you, young master." Fang Xiaoyu said with a smile: "It's nothing? It's an old trick of making a fool of yourself in the east and attacking in the west. Unexpectedly, the Cheng family fell into the trap."
Hua Dongxing said worriedly: "But the Cheng family has not been completely beaten to death, the young master must be careful of their revenge." Fang Xiaoyu frowned and said: "What? Has the Cheng family found trouble in the past two years?" Hua Dongxing shook his head and said:
"No, the Cheng family has been very low-key in the past two years, but the more it is activated like this, the more terrifying it becomes. We have to be careful." Fang Xiaoyu nodded and made a mental note.
Huadongxing patted the thick account book and said: "These are things for the future. Let me talk to the young master about the development of our own industry first." After speaking, Huadongxing opened the top book and said: "We have been in the past two years.
More than 200 shops and more than 130 farms have been opened in various counties in Donghai. In addition, there are 51 factories and 312 banks. Most of the banks took over the former Cheng family. The profit the year before last was not enough.
High, only 12 million yuan. This is because we needed to buy land to open a factory and spent most of it. Last year was much better. Since there were no big projects, we made a total profit of more than 83 million yuan. At present, we can use all
There are still 120 million yuan in funds, and the bank’s liquidity is nearly 100 million yuan."
Fang Xiaoyu took a breath and said, "There are actually so many?"
Huadong Xingdao: "Mainly, the young master's products are so popular. Although the prices have been lowered a bit because we have expanded production, the profits are still above 100%." Huadong Xingdao: "Last time I received an order from the young master.
After writing the letter, we have begun to place orders at the twelve shipyards we just took over. A total of fifty cargo ships of about 1,500 tons have been ordered. The cargo ships have been launched one after another, and it is estimated that the last one will be ready in another month.
The trial voyage has been launched, and a lot of sailors have been recruited. By then our trading company will be established. And I have already started transporting a group of personnel and materials to the wild continent, and the preliminary construction there has begun."
Fang Xiaoyu nodded and said: "When I have time, I will go to the Wild Continent again. We need to start building real heavy industry." Huadongxing glanced at Fang Xiaoyu and said, "There is one more thing that I need to report to the young master, please.
It would be better if you don't blame the young master." Fang Xiaoyu said with a smile: "I have great trust in your character, if you have anything to say, I won't be offended."
Huadong Xingdao: "Our industry is developing too fast, so in order to strengthen our protection, I privately expanded the Iron Blood Guards to 20,000 people. Most of them are now scattered throughout our industries without attracting the attention of outsiders." Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "
This is a good thing. Originally, I wanted to expand our military strength when I came back." Hua Dongxing said: "The people Tobol and I recruited have spread to various industries. Lin Feng and his orphans now number nearly 20,000.
Now that we are dead, I have mostly dispersed to various counties in the East China Sea. I think that before the young master becomes the lord, we must hide our strength and try not to let others take us seriously, so that we can develop better."
Fang Xiaoyu nodded and said: "Yes, keep a low profile. You must keep a low profile now." At this time, Fang Xiaoyu suddenly remembered something and said: "By the way, why didn't I see Zhao Quan today?" Hua Dongxing said: "Zhao Quan went to the Monte Empire.
I guess I’ll be back in the next two days.”
"Go to the Monte Empire?" Fang Xiaoyu asked doubtfully: "Is there anything that requires him to go in person?" Hua Dongxing said: "The situation in the Monte Empire has been very tense recently. I heard that the Cossack Empire has given them a lot of weapon assistance. Zhao Quan wants to take a look.
, master the latest information so that the young master has time to respond. If the matter is urgent, he will be ready to send someone to the Western Continent to find you."
Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "It seems that I have come back at the right time. I will report to the staff headquarters tomorrow to see what Marshal Xia Jun means." Hua Dongxing nodded and said: "Of course it is best. Young Master must seize this time.
Opportunity, it will be much easier once we have a territory of our own, so that we can develop the wild continent faster." Fang Xiaoyu nodded: "Yes, we must seize this opportunity."
The two people sat in front of the oil lamp. It was about a year before Huadongxing. Lanfang went to the court and talked about all the major events in the village until late at night. Huadongxing talked to Fang Xiaoyu for a while, and saw that the sky was already dark.
It was early, and Huadongxing, who was afraid of delaying Fang Xiaoyu's rest, immediately stood up and left. Fang Xiaoyu was really sleepy. Since Huadongxing proposed to leave, he agreed.
