Chapter 345: Thriving
When Li Yi was chatting with Mem, Shen Shanshan was watching the news on her mobile phone.
Suddenly, she shouted, "Oh no, something happened in Maori, and a lot of people are demonstrating!" β
"What's that about us?" Luo Xiayao asked.
Shen Shanshan said: "Maori is our motherland!" There is a big mess in the motherland, why is it none of our business? β
Li Ting smiled: "You little guy, you have taken Maori as a motherland so quickly?" β
"Of course, I'm a Maori student studying abroad in Huaxia now!" Shen Shanshan raised the passport in her hand.
It was not easy to change nationality, but Meimu gave Li Yi's family a special case. Now Li Yi's family, except for Luo Xiayao's nationality, is being processed, and the other members have all become Maori citizens. Yesterday, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was entrusted by the Minister of the Maori State to send someone to send the Maori passport, and Shen Shanshan was one of them.
"Alright, don't be naughty." Tang Yun glanced at her daughter, and then Li Yi asked, "Xiao Yi, is there nothing wrong with Maori?" β
Li Yi said: "Mem's ability is acceptable, and he should be able to put things down." If he can't handle it, we'll change the agent, and nothing big will happen. This time, judging by the sources, it was the Americans who first reported it, not the French. So I suspect that the United States is behind this farce. β
Pressure = bet
Lin Ruxue said: "Those who dare to move the French cake in Africa, except for Hua Xia, are basically the United States." Although Maori is a small country, all industries are transfusing blood to France, and mosquito rainbows are also meat, can Americans not be greedy? This time, take advantage of the chaos to stir up, and if you make a profit, you won't lose anything if you don't stir it up. β
Luo Xiayao asked curiously: "What benefits can the United States gain from disrupting the Maori country?" β
Lin Ruxue said: "With the poor and weak foundation of the Maori country, driving out the French can only rely on the Americans. At that time, the Americans only need to take less than the French, and the Maori people will be grateful to Dade. β
Wu Na said: "If the Maori country is in chaos, won't it be a defeat for both sides?" β
Lin Ruyu said: "The Maori country is in chaos, and the United States can just export weapons and make a lot of money." After the war, the United States can provide loans to rebuild the homeland, and make another profit. In the end, the loan could not be repaid, and the MΔori country could only endure taking away the iron ore and fishing grounds of the Maori country, and sucking the blood of the Maori people like the French now. β
"What if you can't bear it anymore?" Shen Lingling asked.
Li Ting said: "If you can't bear it, then continue to make trouble, turn your face with your American father, and change your father again." β
Shen Shanshan said: "The people of a small country are so miserable, if we move to Maori, won't we be bullied by the Americans?" β
Shen Lingling hurriedly reminded: "Now the Americans haven't succeeded yet, Maori's father is France." We went, just let the French bully. β
Shen Shanshan said angrily: "Isn't that the same thing? No, I want to move my nationality back, although Huaxia is not as good as the United States, but it will not be bullied by the United States! β
Li Yi said: "Shanshan, you have to be calm. Although MΔori is a small country, it does not mean that it will always be a small country. Now that our country has you, me, and talented people like us, we will have to become a strong country sooner or later. At that time, we will not only not be bullied by the United States and France, but will also be bullied by the United States and France. β
"Really?" Shen Shanshan's eyes widened, "Then tell me quickly, how can we strengthen the country?" Have we done anything big lately? β
Li Yi said: "Yes, I just gave the National Bank of Maori to France. Now the money in the Maori country is printed by the French, and it takes hundreds of millions to print hundreds of millions of dollars as much as they want, and all the money in the Maori country is French. β
"What? The Maori people marched because of you? Did you sell our state-owned banks? Shen Shanshan said loudly.
Li Yi said: "The Maori country needs stability in order to flourish and develop its economy, and the French cannot move the cake." β
Li Ting said: "But as soon as you sell the bank, they are all in chaos like this, and they are still stable?" What about the crooks? β
Shen Lingling said: "Brother-in-law, France is obviously inferior to the United States, we might as well take refuge in France, it is better to take refuge in the United States!" β
Li Yi said: "The Americans will not completely turn their faces with France for the sake of such a weak and small country, and the funds they can invest are limited. This incident should just be a test by the United States, and it can be quickly suppressed.
In contrast, France is really good at using knives in order to maintain its sphere of influence in Africa. France's focus is not on the Maori state, but on the whole. If the Maori country is passive and does not respond, its other cakes in Africa will also be divided, so even if it fights hard, it will have to protect this piece.
Believe me, the French will pay dozens of times more for Maori than the Americans. β
"Does France have a lot of cakes in Africa?" Wu Simeng asked.
Li Yi said: "Just look up how many countries in Africa speak French. Before the Second World War, almost all of Africa was the territory of France and Britain, and the United States took great pains to strip these lands from Britain and France. But France gave up only land, and most of the assets of these countries were still in the hands of the French, and whoever moved them was in a hurry. β
Shen Shanshan said: "I understand. For the United States, Maori is an apple in someone else's orchard, and if it can be stolen, it will steal it, and if it can't steal it, it won't lose anything, and it won't work hard for an apple.
For France, the Maori country is the apple in its own orchard, and it will fight for this apple. It's not that it's greedy for this apple, it's that if it shrinks its head, the other apples will be plucked too! β
Lin Ruxue said: "Shanshan, you are so smart, the example you gave is similar to the one that Xiao Yi gave me." β
Li Ting said: "My brother also used other people's apples as an example? β
Lin Ruxue said: "No, he was talking about someone else's daughter-in-law at the time. β
Li Ting's face turned red and said softly: "I knew that dogs can't spit out ivory in their mouths!" β
Li Yi smiled: "Okay, old sister, we are a gourd growing on a vine, scolding me is tantamount to scolding yourself." How's the ad placement going? β
Li Ting said: "I have talked about TV stations, mainstream websites, newspapers and magazines in various provinces and cities, and they can be broadcast, but the asking price of each is not low." These days, advertising is worth more than goods. β
Li Yi said: "If it can be negotiated, money is secondary, the key is whether the time and location are reasonable, and whether good results can be achieved." β
Lin Ruyu said: "Husband, our company's advertising has been in Yangshi for a long time, so there is no need to invest in it, right?" As soon as that cancer drug came on the market, it was difficult for us to think of a famous. β
Li Yi said: "Who told you that we advertise to buy cancer drugs? How's the deal with the pharmaceutical factory takeover? β
Lin Ruyu said: "Yesterday I just signed a contract to wholly acquire Tangshui No. 4 Pharmaceutical Factory. However, the equipment of the pharmaceutical factory is very backward, and it cannot produce anti-cancer drugs, so we are spending money in vain. β
Li Yi smiled: "Who said that buying a pharmaceutical factory is to produce anti-cancer drugs?" β
"So what the hell are you going to do?" Lin Ruyu asked.
Li Yi smiled, turned his head to Tang Yun and said, "Mother, how is the matter with the brewery?" β
Tang Yun said: "It was also acquired, and it was also a contract signed yesterday." But the beer really didn't make a head, we are so close to Beidi City, Yanjing beer, snow beer are bought very well, Tangshuibei wine can't be sold in the city, and it loses money every year. β
Li Yi said: "I don't buy Bei Liquor and Pharmaceutical Factory to produce beer and medicine, but to borrow their equipment to make some quick money. Wife, the employees in the company have been trained for many days, you select elites, form a strong management team, the first battle must be fought well. β
"What the hell are you going to do?" Li Ting asked.
Li Yi said: "Let me ask you, what brand is the most widely known in the world?" β
Li Ting blinked and said, "I guess it's Coca-Cola." β
Li Yi nodded and said, "That's right, Coca-Cola." A carbonated drink, with a little carbon dioxide in the water, plus some sugar and condiments, the production process is simpler than beer, but it is sold all over the world, and no number of high-tech, refined, and cutting-edge technology products can be compared. So if we want to make money, make a name for ourselves, and make some profits by the way, the easiest way is to make drinks. β
"Make drinks from the Monument Distillery?" Lin Ruxue asked.
"Yes, the tools are ready-made, and it is not difficult to switch from stele wine to beverage production."
Lin Ruyu asked: "What does the pharmaceutical factory have to do with this?" β
Li Yi said: "Although the equipment of the Fourth Pharmaceutical Factory is aging and cannot make any good medicines, it is no problem to make simple preparations. And this flavor preparation will be the key to the success of our drinks. β
"You have a great recipe?" Tang Yun asked.
"That's right, a formula that stimulates the nervous system of carbon-based creatures, similar to a product."
"Phew!" Qi Qi, who was seated, gasped, and Luo Xiayao said in a low voice: "That's too bad, right?" β
Li Yi smiled: "It's just similar, but the role is not the same." Raw products will weaken the functions of the human body, is harmful, my formula not only does not harm people, but also strengthens the body. In many carbon-based civilizations, the drink was all the rage until the advent of the Evolutionary Fluid. β
"That's not good." Luo Xia Yao said in a low voice.
Li Yi asked, "Xia Yao, do you think it's good to smoke?" β
Luo Xiayao shook her head slightly.
Li Yi said: "There are all kinds of harms to smoking, and there is no benefit, but everyone smokes, so it's not a big deal." Our drinks will be as popular as cigarettes, and the results will be healthier than smoking, and you don't have to object to it. β
Lin Ruyu asked, "Husband, what is the name of this drink you are talking about?" β
Li Yi said: "It doesn't matter what the name is, Xiaoting, you can take one!" β
Li Ting thought for a while and said: "I think since we make drinks, we should give the name of Coca-Cola and Pepsi." β
Shen Shanshan said: "Then it's called Vigor Cola, and Vigor can produce miracles!" β
Li Yi said: "Okay, then it's decided, the new drink is Dali Cola." The advertisement will be filmed by Ren Qiaoyi, Mengmeng, you can arrange it. Xiaoting, after Mengmeng finished filming the advertisement, you are responsible for contacting the major media to place it.
Wife, I'll give you the formula in a moment, and you have to arrange it properly at the pharmaceutical factory and sign the confidentiality agreement to avoid leakage of the formula. Mom, the production and sales team of Bei Distillery should be done well, and after the advertisement is placed, the demand may be very large. Mother, my mother and my wife are focusing on the new factory, you can help them keep an eye on the construction site, don't make a mess. β
"Okay." Everyone responded together.
Luo Qiuyao felt that something was wrong, and leaned into Luo Xiayao's ear and said, "Sister, it seems that you don't have a task?" β
"Huh?" Luo Xia Yao blinked, only to find that among the eight members of the concubine palace, only she and the two little girls were idle.
Her pretty face flushed slightly, and she asked in a low voice, "Old, husband, what can I do for you?" β
Li Yi said: "Xia Yao, you can take Shanshan and Lingling back to class." You have to consolidate the knowledge I taught you! β
"Okay." Luo Xiayao nodded hurriedly.
Shen Lingling pulled Li Yi's sleeve forward and said, "Aren't you going to school?" You're my tablemate! β
Li Yi hugged her and kissed her, and said softly: "You guys go first, I have something to do today." β
"What's the matter?" Shen Lingling asked.
Li Yi snapped his fingers, and the video communication screen in the room lit up. The one who appeared in the middle of the screen was Zhao Lao!
Luo Xiayao and Tang Zhi never thought that this big man would appear in Li Yi's communication equipment, and they shrank back together. Tang Yun and the others were not surprised, but they were just puzzled why Zhao Lao wanted to contact Li Yi.
Zhao Lao on the screen bent down slightly and showed Li Yi the photo in his hand. It was a tiny plant with a small purple flower on it.
"Mr. Li, there is something I want to tell you, we just discovered this."
Although Li Yi was engaged in industry and built a factory in Tangshui City, those people in the first row unanimously agreed that he was from the hidden door after discussion.
In their knowledge base, only people in the hidden door can cross the limits of their lives and do those unthinkable things.
The person in the hidden door, Zhao Lao had also seen it once before.
It was a middle-aged man who came and gave him a picture album with some flowers and plants, as well as ores.
"If you find anything in this book, I will give you ten years of life, and if you can't find any of them, I will interrupt your rainbow next time I come!"
Thinking of the hidden man who came without a shadow and went without a trace, Zhao Lao felt palpitations.
Over the years, he has sent countless scientific expeditions, footprints all over the north and south of the river, deep into various deep mountains and old forests, the purpose is to find the flowers and plants in the atlas, and now he finally found one.
He didn't know what this grass was for, but his intuition told him that Li Yi would definitely need it too.
Sure enough, after Li Yi saw the grass, he nodded and said, "Very good, send it over!" β
"This-" Zhao Lao's face was embarrassed, "Mr. Li, I can't hide it, this grass was asked by another master to help him find it, if I give it to you, I can't explain it over there!" β
Li Yi said: "You don't have to explain, just let him find me." β
Zhao Lao bent down and said, "Mr. Li, having said that, you also have to be considerate of the hardships of us ordinary people." I don't know anything about that man's temperament, but if he comes and finds that the grass is gone, he will be furious, and my life will be whimpered.
For my age, you can spare my life as a bad old man. If you like this grass, please come to the capital, and when the master arrives, you can discuss it yourself! (To be continued.) )
