Chinese people are very particular about the plot of their hometowns, and they come to Nanyang thousands of miles to beg for a living, and many Chinese people will involuntarily huddle together. But as there are more people, there seems to be more competition between them.

At present, there are not many Chinese in Manila, but in the status of Manila, many Chinese are afraid that they are not even as good as the natives. Although there is a big country behind these people, many people know what is happening in China.

Regardless of the attitude of these invited Chinese business leaders to the emergence of Zhao Tiehu, a cutting-edge Chinese. After being invited, these people all arrived at Wolf Castle with gifts, intending to get in touch with Zhao Tiehu and have a look.

In addition, in recent times, Wolfsburg's purchasing team has purchased a lot of materials in Manila, and some of the goods sold by Chinese shops are the primary materials purchased by Wolfsburg. This alone can also see that Zhao Tiehu is not bad for money!

And what happened two days ago, although the official said that it was the soldiers of the patrol battalion who surrounded and suppressed those indigenous forces. But many invited business leaders knew that the biggest credit for that incident should still be attributed to the people of Wolfsburg.

After all, when those indigenous armed forces attacked the manor that night, many Chinese working on the manor witnessed it with their own eyes. Even many workers were involved in the burning of corpses. How can such a thing be false?

Rich, well-connected, and most importantly, with guns in their hands, how can such a new Chinese who has a background in Manila not take it seriously? Not to mention, this group of people seems to be extremely prestigious in China!

When the Chinese business leaders who were invited to come, they saw Zhao Tiehu and Chen Wan standing in front of the main gate of the renovated manor castle and welcoming their arrival. These Chinese business leaders can see to some extent that this is really not easy for young people.

After a brief chat at the door, Zhao Tiehu also asked Li Hao to lead these people into his castle. Such a huge manor castle really made many Chinese leaders who came to think that it was too luxurious to live in such a place!

It's just that to the surprise of these Chinese leaders, in the whole manor, it is rare to see some big families have maids or maids. From the moment they entered the door to the present, except for Zhao Tiehu's wife, they didn't see any other women at all.

This situation made these Chinese leaders somewhat conscious, and felt that the owner of this manor was really not simple. And these young people, who seem to be silent but capable, are all from the army.

Perhaps it was because of this that those indigenous forces wanted to sneak attack a few days ago, but in the end they were caught off guard by these guards of the manor, and even were completely annihilated in the manor. The reason for this should be that he underestimated Zhao Tiehu's ability to guard.

Nowadays, the mainland is in full swing, and the most important thing may be to be a soldier. But to be able to find so many elite soldiers who have seen blood on the battlefield at a glance, I can't recruit them if I don't have the ability to do so.

Just when the business leaders who entered the meeting room and sat down chatted with each other. Someone was also very curious: "Patriarch Wang, what did you say about this young man who came to talk with us today?" ”

'Brother Zhu, if you ask me about this, who will I ask!' Drink tea with peace of mind! What to talk about, wait for the master to come back and know. This tea is good, it should be Longjing in Hangzhou, and it should be of the highest grade. There are not many people in the whole Nanyang who can buy it! ’

No matter what the business leaders who were invited to come had in mind, since they had already come here, they naturally needed to be polite on the surface. After all, many Chinese people like to follow the principle of 'going out with friends'.

After Zhao Tiehu walked into the living room and invited everyone to sit down in this circular living room, he said with a smile: "When Yonghua first came to Manila, he originally wanted to talk to the seniors in the business community, but it was delayed when he first came here.

This time, I invite all my seniors to come to the castle to talk about it, and I also want to learn from my predecessors. After all, Yonghua will also invest in some industries in Manila in the future, and I hope that all seniors will take care of it if I am not familiar with it.

Second, I also have some words, I want to discuss them with your seniors. Although Yonghua first came to Manila, he had heard some stories about what happened to us Chinese who had left their homeland here. Yonghua is not talented, but also wants to do a meager effort. ”

Speaking these wrinkled words, Zhao Tiehu also felt very sour. But the problem is that many Chinese families living in Nanyang today retain some feudal customs in the late Qing Dynasty, and they always like to speak with a little bit of care.

After Zhao Tiehu finished speaking, the patriarch of the Wang clan, who owned a mine and several grain stores in Manila, said with a smile: "Brother Yonghua is too polite! Although you have just arrived in Manila, what you can do has really increased the prestige of our Chinese.

What's more, everyone is uprooted from their hometowns to make a living, and they should help each other. In the future, if my brother needs anything, as long as my Wang family can help, I will definitely try my best to help. ”

'Thank you, Patriarch Wang! Speaking of which, I really have something to trouble Patriarch Wang, and I'll bring another group of people over soon. Therefore, I am afraid that I still need more food, and I hope that the royal patriarch will give some discounts on the price! ’

Of course! Of course! ’

Seeing the most qualified royal patriarch, a good word was exchanged for the grain procurement promised by Zhao Tiehu, and the rest of the invited industrial and commercial leaders would not be willing to be left behind, and naturally opened their mouths to make money in order to make a few good words.

After chatting about some business matters, Zhao Tiehu also said in a timely manner: "Although Yonghua has not been in Manila for a long time, I also feel that it is not easy for us to live in Manila, not to mention the need to be under the jurisdiction of the foreign government, but also to be bullied by the natives.

I believe you should have heard of what happened in my manor a few days ago. In the eyes of those lazy natives, we seem to be more able to make money and know how to endure hardships than them. And what about them? But they always hate our existence!

Although at the moment, our country cannot provide us with any shelter for the time being. But we are abroad, and we cannot fall into the majesty of the great powers of the East. Therefore, I think we should discuss what to do.

A rich family is not called rich, everyone is rich and rich. Only when we are self-reliant and self-reliant, those foreigners and natives will not dare to despise our existence. At least I know that the Americans in Manila are more willing to side with us.

After all, they should be well aware that we are as outsiders as they are to the natives. If we want to gain a foothold here, we have to come together.

Perhaps, in your opinion, we do not have the conditions to cooperate and negotiate with foreigners. But I must say, you don't have to think of foreigners as terrible. The world is bustling, all for profit; The world is crowded, all for profit, and foreign devils also understand this truth.

As long as we do something to make the foreign devils feel that our existence will help them control Manila, I believe that those foreigners will also give us more say and say things. ”

When he said these words, most of the business leaders sitting there felt that Zhao Tiehu was very naïve. After all, foreign devils are really as easy to talk as Zhao Tiehu said, and they won't be bullied by those foreign devils repeatedly.

Perhaps seeing the disapproving expressions on the faces of some of these business leaders, Zhao Tiehu suddenly said with a serious expression: "Maybe what I said before, some seniors felt that they were too naïve, and foreign devils are not a good thing."

I agree with this, but have we ever thought about why we are bullied by the government and warlords at home, and when we come abroad, we are still bullied by the government and even those people? Are they too strong, or are we too incompetent?

In terms of wealth, I think the wealth of many of your predecessors here should be more abundant than Yonghua. But when it comes to dealing with foreigners, or being respected by foreigners, the seniors here shouldn't be as good as me, right? Have you ever thought about the reason for this? ”

Asked by Zhao Tiehu like this, it was still the patriarch of the Wang clan who said with a smile: "Brother Yonghua, we actually understand these truths you said. But it's easier said than done! ”

If you don't do it, you'll always find it difficult. Only by doing and fighting, will we find that things are not as difficult as we imagined. Never mind! These words may not be said by me, a junior, but there is one thing that I think my seniors can support. ’

'What?' Where we can help, we will do our best! ’

Say so, but whether it will be fulfilled or not, that's another matter!

But for Zhao Tiehu, he is not afraid that these people will not support him. If these people don't want to support and participate in the connected matter, it can only be said that this kind of so-called Chinese leader is not worthy of being a leader at all.

In the expectant eyes of everyone, Zhao Tiehu said in a flat tone: "Earlier, I talked to Governor Joseph, the consul of Manila, about the need to improve the status of the Chinese and attract more Chinese to work in Manila.

In this regard, Governor Joseph also said that the Chinese are welcome to settle in the Philippines, and the government will also provide some help within its ability. And I also won some rights for everyone, hoping to improve the situation of our Chinese in Manila.

This is the current management body of Chinatown, which allows capable Chinese representatives to join the management department and serve as government personnel of the neighborhood management department to coordinate and manage the affairs of the Chinese neighborhood for the government.

The second point is to ensure the safety of the Chinese neighborhood, and at the same time, to rectify the law and order of the Chinese neighborhood. I took the lead in forming a joint defense team composed of young Chinese people, and the first batch of 200 members could patrol with guns.

In addition to fighting crime and ensuring the safety of residents in the Chinese neighborhood, this joint defense team also has the obligation to assist the government in maintaining stability in Manila. But the funds for the formation of the joint defense team will be raised by ourselves.

As for weapons and ammunition, I can come forward to solve it, and I don't even have to pay for it. But about the selection of joint defense members, I also hope that everyone can support more publicity, if you can send some money, then Yonghua is even more grateful! ”

The Chinese neighborhood is self-governing, and the first joint defense team formed by all Chinese young people has been established, and it can also be equipped with weapons and ammunition to patrol the streets. Even if there are only 200 places, these Chinese leaders have never dared to think of it.

As soon as the news was announced, these Chinese leaders also had different thoughts and began to think about whether this matter would be beneficial or disadvantageous for them!
